Once upon a time, a True Son fell in love with a Disciple. From their union was born twin boys: Okoro and Daiko. But the two lovers could not remain together, and so they returned to their respective comrades, each with one of their sons. The father, a True Son, took the eldest twin with him to be raised by his Saiyan brethren. As for the mother, a Disciple, she began to suffer complications from the childbirth and as a result never made it back to her people. The child she took, the younger brother, was then found and subsequently lived his childhood from one crappy orphanage to another. Meanwhile, the elder brother was raised among his Saiyan relatives and brought up to fight for the beliefs of the True Sons. As for the younger brother, he grew up as a disillusioned drifter, with little interest in any of the factions or their conflicts, but somehow always managed to get pulled in anyway.

6,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-29 01:29:00,Heroshade,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Lookout was silent save for a soft breeze that cut a chill in the air from the open window. It was always cold there this time of year. Several hundred feet below the Lookout, grey clouds were growing darker by the hour, threatening a downpour. The birds had all gone. Makken, the Guardian of Earth, was off meeting with the leaders of the Disciples, and he had taken his bodyguards with him. This was one of the only times Dante would have the Lookout to himself, and he used the silence to meditate.

Sitting on the floor of his bedchamber, Dante sat with legs crossed and his hands resting on his knees. Focusing intently on the breeze wafting past his face, he turned his right hand over so that the palm was facing up. Slowly, methodically, Dante began to release his ki. The energy that generated from his hand, an incandescent blue orb that permeated warmth, began to rise towards the ceiling. Dante turned his hand back over and focused on the ki. It began to twist and contort, forming different shapes based on Dante's unconscious thoughts. It became a tree first, then a ship, Makken, and finally the Lookout itself. The glowing blue miniature broke apart in seconds, the ki returning to it's original form and spiraling slowly around the bedchamber. 

Something far to the south exploded and Dante's eyes snapped open. It was much too far for him to hear the blast, but he could feel the energy from the attack that made it. It was abrupt, powerful, and it wasn't alone. That didn't worry Dante as much as he thought it would. What bothered him the most was that he'd felt that same power before. It was one of the Trueborn, the so called 'rightful' rulers of earth. Dante and the Guardian had both attempted to find meaning in these sudden bursts of energy, had been trying for months in fact. It probably wasn't as complicated as they were making it out to be. The True Sons were clearly fighting amongst themselves. They always had. But this was the fifth time this year, and the aggressor was always the same. Dante knew from experience that when that energy signature faded away, there would be an entire village somewhere to the south that had no more inhabitants. 

Dante stood and turned towards his bed. Hanging from the headboard was a black, short-sleeved gi and a pair of loose-fitting pants. He dressed himself, laced up his boots and exited his bedchamber. The Lookout always felt strange when nobody was there. It seemed so much larger than it really was. An enormous, bowel shaped platform suspended atop a massive tower, the Lookout was normally home to at least twenty people. Most of them were Saiyans or otherwise affiliated with the Disciples of Son Goku in some way. Dante was the exception to that rule. He was not a member of the Disciples in any official capacity. No, his destiny was bound to the Lookout itself, and to the Guardian.

But today there was no Guardian, no twenty-some bodyguards, no servants or assistants waiting on the Guardian hand and foot. There was only the Keeper. Dante started down the hall, focusing intently on the now waning ki to the south. It didn't take him long to pinpoint the precise location. As soon as he stepped outside of the Lookout, he saw the smoke rising from the horizon. 

Dante ran a hand across the top of his hairless head, wrapped an antenna around his finger. It was a nervous gesture he'd performed ever since he was a child. Not once had he ever realized he was doing it. <span class=""bb-i"">This is getting worse</span> Dante thought. <span class=""bb-i"">If we don't do something about this soon, it's not just going to be Saiyan cities being destroyed.</span>

Dante, the Namekian, the Keeper of the Lookout, reached out one last time and felt a single source of energy. Then there was another and the first was snuffed out. The battle was over as quickly as it had begun.

=======================================================================================================================================

The battlefield had grown quiet. Lucarien stood at the front of the village chief's home, a large, if rather drab manse just a few hundred yards from the rest of the village. His men were going from house to house, picking the belongings from the fallen corpses and burglarizing their homes. Lucarien, however, had no need for looting. He had found exactly what he wanted when he showed up; a defiant Saiyan chief. The only piece of loot Lucarien would be taking would be the earring that hung from the remaining half of the chief's head. He bent down and plucked the earring from the charred and blackened ear, taking a decent portion of the lobe with it. Lucarien wiped off the gore and held the trinket out in front of him. It was a small leather ornament, a cracked moon scorched onto the face of it. That was the coat of arms this chief's predecessor had decided on.

Lucarien grunted out something that might have been a laugh. What did a cracked moon represent that was worthy of a Saiyan tribe? He imagined it probably had something to do with planet Vegeta, but that didn't matter anymore. The corpse laying before Lucarien now certainly didn't need any representation. They had barely put up a fight at all. The chief had voiced his... opposition to King Adiqa and the battle was nearly over before he finished his sentence. Lucarien's men were blooded veterans. The idiots with a cracked moon on their flag hadn't contributed to a real fight since the first war with the Disciples. Lucarien had grinned as he saw the fear grow in the chief's eyes, as he witnessed the deaths of his kinsmen and soldiers. It had become something of a habit at this point, but his wife had been one of the first to go. When the battle was nearing its end, the chief had tried something Lucarien was certain was supposed to be an attack, but he found himself with a mouthful of energy a second later. The Trueborn had taken the fighting to the village, and there were still a few residents that needed to be dealt with, but for the most part, this tribe had been eradicated.

<span class=""bb-i"">Ah, and what perfect timing</span> Lucarien thought. On the other side of the village he could see his troops forming up in a line, right hands balled into fists over their hearts. Twenty men in traditional Saiyan armor over red bodysuits marched out before them. Beyond the Royal Guard, Lucarien could see the king, arms folded, floating forward as if his feet were too godly to be sullied by the dirt. <span class=""bb-i"">Of course they are, your grace</span> Lucarien thought bitterly. Clutching the earring in his fist, he started towards the king.

""Your Grace,"" Lucarien said, dropping to a knee and bowing his head. He held out his hand, still balled into a fist. ""A trophy, taken from the ignorant chief himself.""

The king took the earring and inspected the symbol on the front, a small burst of air escaping his nose. ""You've done well, Lucarien,"" said king Adiqa, handing the trinket to one of his bodyguards. ""Of all the tribes that have refused to stand behind me, the chief of this one had a special... arrogance about him. I trust he didn't die well?""

""Didn't even put up a fight, your grace. I nearly took his head off before he could throw his first punch.""

The king laughed again. ""Knowing him, it may literally have been his first punch. It's for the best he didn't join us. Weak Saiyans are not Trueborn. Rise, my servant, show me what punishment you've wrought on the fools.""

Lucarien did as he was instructed, though there really was no need for him to walk alongside the king. He would have much preferred to get his men back to the palace before they started fighting over the best loot.

The king and his guards carved a path across the village, back towards the chief's manor. He smiled at the sight of the dead chief, then extended an arm outward. The sound of the door blasting off it's hinges was deafening. If there weren't so many guards around, Lucarien might have rolled his eyes. His majesty couldn't even open a door without making a show of it. 

""Lucarien,"" The king said, not looking away from the manor. ""Have you ever wanted to be the leader of a Saiyan tribe?""

He thought about it for a long moment. He had of course, but it was generally inadvisable to reveal one's ambitions to a king. ""No, my lord. I prefer a warrior's life, not that of a politician.""

Another laugh from Adiqa. ""You're a horrible liar, Lucarien. Tell your men not to burn too much of the village. They'll be sleeping here for the time being.""

""Your grace?""

""Three hundred miles west of here, there is a temple carved into the side of a mountain. It is home to nearly a hundred blooded and well trained warrior monks, Disciples. Do you know why nearly a hundred well trained warrior monks are living in a temple so far from civilization?"" Lucarien shook his head. ""It's because they're protecting something. Our man on the inside insists that this temple is where the Disciples are keeping the Three-Star Dragon Ball.""

Lucarien's eyes widened. ""Your grace, I-""

""Get this place cleaned up, Lucarien. I don't know how long it will be before we locate the other six, but you'll be running this village until we do. Tell your men to mask their energy levels. The Disciples may be fools, but they won't suffer a Trueborn to exist anywhere near one of their precious Dragon Balls.""

The king didn't say another word. He spun around to face Lucarien and the expression on his face was more than enough to get the message across. <span class=""bb-i"">Fail me here</span> those eyes said <span class=""bb-i"">and whatever the Disciples do to you will be considered a mercy.</span> With that, the king rose into the air, his guards in tow, and all of them soared back towards the palace leaving Lucarien with eighty men and a now inhabited village.</div>"
7,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-29 02:18:00,Razqua,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Mizu's Saiyan pod glowed like a shooting star as it penetrated Earths atmosphere. It was strange feeling he felt. He was returning to the home of his ancestors after hundreds of years. 

Mizu's ancestors had abandoned the Earth during the Great Saiyan War. Ever since they have been nomads. They traveled from planet to planet looking for a place to call home. Mizu's parents believed that they had found one on the planet called Xenal. Mizu grew up on Xenal becoming a warrior and protector of peace on the planet. He had many friends there. Life was a good one until one day a powerful warlord arrived on the planet with an army. Xenal fought with the planets natives as long and hard as he could but it appeared to be a futile resistance. So an evacuation of the planet was planned. Sadly the warlord found out about the evacuation and destroyed every ship as it tried to flee. As far was Mizu knows he's the only one who managed to escape. With nowhere else to go Mizu traveled to Earth. He hoped there he could live in peace.

Mizu gritted his teeth as the pod crashed into the Earth. Mizu opened the pod and stepped out to see a mountain temple in front of his eyes. It had been days since Mizu had eaten anything. He flew up to the temple hoping they had food to offer.</div>"
8,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-29 23:52:00,Hoptie,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Pomodoro struggled against the weight of the two large metal crates threatening to come together and crush him. He felt the muscles in his braced limbs strain as the shipping truck he was aboard jostled and shook. With no seat to brace himself against he found himself holding back the loose crates for the entire trip. And only now was he finally starting to feel the strain. 

Since Pomodoro was young he had loved travelling long distances. Usually it meant that all he had to do was go to sleep for a few hours and he would wake up in an entirely foreign place. Flying in first class luxury always meant that there were new sights, new sounds and most importantly, new food waiting wherever he woke up.  Not this time though. With a mournful grunt he thought about his bank account and how hopelessly dry it had become. 

He didn't mind working for a living but it got in the way of his journeying. So, in a convenient stroke of luck he found himself signed up with what he had thought would be an easy job. But by the time he realized what the ""travelling"" portion of the ""Grand Travelling Circus of Oz"" ad he found had meant he was already halfway on board the truck. So there he was, narrowly avoiding being crushed to death doing the thing he loved most. The expression on his face kept switching between a grimace of pain and an insane grin of boundless joy.

When the truck stopped and the doors opened he was grinning. 

""What the hell!?"" said the driver when he saw him.

Pomodoro gave an abrupt grunt and threw the crates forward, past the driver and into the hood of the truck sitting behind them. There was a cry of confusion just before the sound of metal crashing into metal. The ruined truck's driver jumped out of the cabin just in time to narrowly avoid being killed.

After a long silent moment of looking from Pomodoro back to the gnarled engine block behind him, the first driver repeated himself. ""What the HELL!?""

Pomodoro considered the small man for a brief moment then cheerily asked ""Where is the food?""</div>"
9,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-30 03:33:00,Heroshade,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The smoke hadn't even cleared before the Saiyan pod was surrounded by nearly a dozen Disciple warriors. The garrison commander had felt the approaching energy signature and immediately dispatched as many scouts as he could afford. He couldn't risk leaving the temple undermanned.  The first team to arrive at the crash site had fanned out, hidden themselves among the rocks and the brush, lowering their energy levels to near non-existence. Whoever was in that pod wouldn't sense them.   

Each warrior tensed for action as the door to the pod burst open, loudly releasing clouds of condensed oxygen. They all watched as a boy stumbled out of the pod, coughing in the smoke and dust left behind by his vessel's intimate and sudden meeting with the ground. He had strikingly red hair and wore a dirt-caked white cloak over, strangely enough, a Capsule Corps jacket. A scouter rested on his ear, the lens around his eye scuffed and scratched.   

His appearance, his vessel, the scouter all pointed towards the boy being a Saiyan. The fact that he'd apparently come from off-world meant that he likely wasn't a member of the True Sons, but that meant little to the warriors currently working their way into a circle around him. If he came from off-world, he wasn't a Disciple either. He was a trespasser.  

The boy had had the terrible luck of landing just a few hundred yards from the Dragon Temple, rigorously protected by almost one hundred of the Disciple's best warriors, each one tasked with ensuring that no threat to the treasure within went unchecked.  

He looked up towards the temple, apparently unaware that he was being watched, and slowly, he began to ascend into the air. Before he made it half the distance to the temple, one of the scouts vanished and shimmered into existence before the space-faring youth. Moments later, the rest followed suit. Soon the boy found himself surrounded on all sides by Saiyain warriors dressed in white cloaks and scouters. ""You've landed your ship on hallowed ground,"" said the lead scout. ""How unfortunate.""</div>"
10,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-30 03:44:00,Razqua,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Mizu thought to himself. ""Well this isn't the welcome I was hoping for."" He threw his hands up into the air in surrender while he powered down. He then spoke nervously. ""Hollowed ground? Can we maybe talk about this?"" Mizu's stomach loudly growled. ""I swear all I want is some food! I haven't eaten in days. I don't have any money but you can have my ship if you want it."" Mizu was clearly terrified. He had just been forced off his planet to drift through space just to be  possibly killed on arrival to his families homeland. Sure he was a strong fighter but he knew he didn't stand a chance against these odds. Especially not when he was starving. He only hoped for his life that his assailants would see him as harmless.</div>"
11,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-30 04:05:00,Heroshade,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I haven't eaten in days. I don't have any money but you can have my ship if you want it.""

The lead scout smirked as he glanced over at the ruin that was the boy's ship. That much was a good sign at least. The Trueborn weren't much for subtlety, and a scheme <span class=""bb-i"">this</span> elaborate was far beyond them. Unfortunately for the boy, however, circumstances didn't change orders. 

""Welcome to earth, off-worlder,"" said the lead scout. ""I hope you enjoy your stay."" He turned to the rest of the scouts. ""Burtagen, inform the commander that we've captured the trespasser. The rest of you, take him to the cells and feed him."" He returned his gaze to the boy. If he was afraid, he did a decent job of hiding it. ""You'll be treated fairly here, but I can't promise we'll ever let you leave. This place is supposed to be a secret. I'd imagine you felt the situation to the east before you even entered orbit. We're not taking risks.""

Before waiting for an answer, the lead commander nodded to one of his men. Two men floated forward, taking the boy by either arm. They didn't bother checking for weapons. Anything in his pocket was poultry compared to the initial power level he'd displayed as he stepped out of that pod. 

As the scouts took the boy away, their leader called one of them back. ""Head to the Lookout,"" he instructed. ""The Guardian and the Keeper surely know about the battle to the east already, find out if they've learned anything we don't know.""</div>"
12,Dragon Ball: Legacy OOC,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75873-dragon-ball-legacy-ooc,['Casual'],2015-01-30 18:10:00,aegyolk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The lesson Tato was in was exceedingly boring. His teacher was a fat Namekian who had spent his whole life here on earth, and had devoted himself to studying the history and the legacy of the Great Son Goku and his family. Tato had taken this class before.

He looked around him, seeing kids of 7 or 8 years old. His own class had already moved on, away from the village, to Disciple outposts. He too was going to graduate but as he had set his old lecturer on fire- as a joke! he always reminded people- he had been set back a year. It wasn't his fault all this historical stuff was so damn boring. Tato wanted to be out in the yard, sparring with the combat instructors, or climbing the waterfall overlooking the village- even sitting in the Medidation Hall with Old Man Coriflo was more fun than this! 

The class ended and Tato bounded out of the stuffy classroom, straight into the yard. He rushed up to his favourite combat instructor, but the man was facing a red-faced courier, discussing a letter in his hands. As Tato approached him, the instructor turned and seeing the boy grabbed his wrist and pulled him away from the other trainees.
'Tato. We have a need of you up in the 3-Ball Outpost. Boy, if you cause trouble you will not just be punished, you could be killed. Behave, do you hear me?' 
'Yes, Instructor.' Tato replied meekly. The instructor looked on the boy and sighed. He would miss this kid. He ruffled Tato's hair, and said, 'I have something for you.' From his bag, the instructor pulled out a white training vest with an orangey-yellow trim.
'This was mine when I was your age. May it serve you well.' Tato bowed deeply, and going to his room set about packing his sole bag.</div>"

They gave him a sandwich which he proceeded to choke down very quickly. It was such a relief to finally get something in his stomach that he didn't even care much that he had been imprisoned. After he finished his food he politely spoke to one of the men guarding him. ""Excuse me I don't mean to pry but I am really confused right now. Where am I and who are you people?""</div>"

A threat thousands of years old, known of across worlds innumerable has been vanquished on a planet many have never heard of. Stories and recollections of foes defeated on the very same world snake their way across the galaxies, a collective hushed whispers of creatures and villains who met their fate at the hands of the Earthlings. People of all races huddle in their homes as a vast empire collapses in on itself and think to themselves “Lord Frieza conquered almost all of the universe, but he couldn’t conquer earth.”  Rumors abound of beings powerful beyond comprehension, a creature called Cell and the Legendary Super Saiyan, both of whom were extinguished upon Terran soil. If villains such as these could be defeated by the likes of the Earthlings, it seemed unlikely that there was any safer place in the cosmos. The universe turns curious eyes on a lonely blue pebble in the Sol system. Some seek a new start. Some seek opportunity. Some seek to train with the Earthlings, to attain powers untold. Many simply wish to live in peace away from the war torn empire Frieza left in his wake.  Beings from across the stars travel to earth in droves. Refugees of ruined worlds, people looking for a safe place for their family, soldiers who have deserted the cause of whichever warlord they lined up behind after the power vacuum left by Frieza’s death created so many new conflicts.  

The earth has changed. Species from all over have planted themselves here. They have become a constant of life, perhaps a nuisance in some eyes. The Saiyan gene has dwindled and diluted, but it will never die. The Saiyans are near equal in number to the humans, and they too have integrated themselves into Terran society, some would say for the better. Others would disagree.  Two schools of thought rise among the Saiyan inhabitants of earth. Though friends in their later lives, Son Goku and Prince Vegeta have left two very different legacies behind. Those who follow the teachings of Son Goku preach peace and tolerance, training constantly in the event that someone might threaten those values. The current guardian of earth subscribes to this way of thinking. Those who follow their revered prince, however, are not quite as docile. They call themselves the True Sons, though it is doubtful that any descendant of Vegeta still lives. They live in separate, almost tribal groups, paying tribute to one king. It is the will of the True Sons to return the Saiyan race to its former glory, as the most powerful species in the universe. While the guardian keeps one sharp eye on the True Sons, the self-proclaimed king of Saiyans gathers support, uniting the tribes that would see a true Saiyan world and destroying those that would refuse to stand behind him. He has but one goal; to obtain the Dragon Balls and make his dream a reality.  

Tensions run high on both sides, but neither sees the threats looming just beyond their solar system. From the ashes of Frieza’s empire rises a new warlord who sees earth as no more than another world to be added to his collection. He knows the dangers posed by the earthlings, but he is ready to deal with them. Hidden just out of sight of the earthlings, his invasion fleet waits to strike.  Still, greater mysteries exist in the universe. Namekians are disappearing by the thousands. Entire worlds are finding that their Namekian populations are dwindling, some vanishing all together. It is a quiet, unvoiced fear that permeates the galaxies. Many wonder where the Namekians are going, but few are brave enough to investigate. Fewer still realize what dangers lay on the horizon. For nearly a thousand years, earth has been a hub of the universe, a melting pot, the safest of havens. In less than a year, earth’s status as a gem in the sand will disappear. 

===========================================================================================================================================

[[Whelp, that's that as far as the intro goes. Basically this is an RP that takes place ~1000 years after the end of Dragon Ball Z, where Saiyans and humans are now almost equal in number. (Don't tell me they couldn't outbreed humans in a thousand years, I already know.) Now I don't really remember, but I'm pretty sure Goku leaves at the end. For the sake of the RP, let's just say he doesn't. Instead, he stays behind and becomes a trainer. Vegeta does the same, though they of course have very different methods of teaching. As a result, we get two separate philosophies that eventually grow into two of the most powerful factions on the planet. I'd like the main focus of the story to be the brewing war between the two Saiyan factions, but I'm open to other ideas. There's also some Frieza wannabe space warlord and other stuff I'm working on as well. There's going to be a human faction that sees the Saiyans as a threat to humanity's place on the food chain, as well as a group of powerful Namekians attempting to fuse together as many Namekians as possible in order to create one super... Namekian.

Anyway, here's a list of factions. If you come up with any other ones let me know and I'll add them up here. I'm still working on them and I just got off work, so I'm a bit burned out. Bear with me on that.]]



<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Disciples of Son Goku"" type=""button"">The Disciples of Son Goku [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">After the rather... public clash between Majin Buu and the Z Fighters, millions of people across the world learned that they could be something so much more than human. They saw these seemingly normal people who were somehow able to stand up against the might of the being that destroyed their world, when even their mighty Hurcule couldn't save them. In a very short time, would-be martial artists the world over began throwing themselves at trainers, begging to be shown the things they never dreamed possible. 

One of these trainers was none other than Son Goku himself. With no more threats facing his home, Goku sought to teach as many people as possible. He knew there would come a time when he wasn't around to protect the earth, and he thought the people of earth should be able to defend themselves when that day came. 

After nearly a millennium, Goku's teachings have become not only a very important part of human history, but a moral code for the hundreds of thousands of Saiyans who would follow them in the years to come. The Disciples grew from a small group of mostly Saiyans over half a century after Goku's death. They sought not just to learn his techniques, but to adopt his (relatively) peaceful lifestyle and attempt to bring peace where there was chaos. As their numbers grew, the Disciples became the protectors Son Goku had envisioned, as well as the de-facto rulers of the earth. Though they hold no ties to any government, they act as a peacekeeping force during times of war and political strife. 

Some five hundred years after Goku's passing, the leader of the Disciples at the time became the Guardian of Earth, watching over the planet from atop Kami's Lookout. As time continued, it became something of a tradition for the Disciples to wear the mantle of Guardian. They defend the earth, safeguard the Dragon Balls, and, if necessary, they destroy any who would seek to fracture the peace that they have worked so hard to create...</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The True Sons"" type=""button"">The True Sons [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Where there is peace, there must one day be chaos. While the Disciples of Son Goku were busy building up their order and strengthening the union between humanity and the Saiyans, others sought to take advantage of them. The Saiyans are a powerful race, and they are very aware of that fact. Perhaps some of them wished to mingle with their human counterparts, but for every earth-loving Saiyan, there were three more who recalled the stories told by their Prince while he still lived. He spoke of the fear stricken into the hearts of all who went against his people, the very same fear that became their downfall at the hands of Lord Frieza. It was an unfathomable power their ancestors possessed, and they squandered it in service to a tyrant. 

The Trueborn would be slaves to no one.

It quickly became evident to the Disciples that there were Saiyans out there who saw humans as nothing more than ants to be stepped on. They were dealt with as mercifully as possible, at first. It was only when these violent Saiyans began rallying behind a man they called their king, that the Disciples saw what true horrors awaited them. These Saiyans called themselves the Trueborn, and they claimed allegiance to one who believed himself to be a descendant of the great Prince Vegeta. As their numbers grew, so too did the volume of their call: ""We are the True Sons of planet Vegeta, and the time of the Saiyans has come again.""

Their teachings were extreme, their followers, fanatical. They heard the tales of their prince, ached to live in an age where Saiyans were respected and feared for the gods they were. But there was one thing the Saiyans didn't have, not truly; a world to call their own. And a world shared with the humans was not a Saiyan world. Cities fell by the thousands, and as their numbers grew, the Disciples began to fear that they wouldn't be able to stop the extermination of the human race. 

The Disciples allied themselves with the dozens of human resistance groups that propped themselves up and limped into battle against the Trueborn. Battle after battle, the Trueborn annihilated them, slaughtered the survivors without quarter. The would be king of Saiyans grew closer to victory every day. But the True Sons were an order based around power and power alone. The king was strong, but so were his kinsmen, so were the hundreds of others who desired to wear a crown upon their head. It was only a matter of time before betrayal put an end to the war. The king was dead, and many Trueborn would bow to the new one. Many, but not all. As time went on, the True Sons splintered into a dozen warring factions, each seeking to rule the order that none of them even realized had already collapsed. In the end, there was no great battle for the fate of the earth, no mighty clash between the Disciples and the Trueborn, because the Trueborn had defeated themselves.

Hundreds of years later, the True Sons still live in contention with one another. Though their collective ambition to wipe out the humans has faded, they still shun those they view as weak, living separately from humans and any Saiyan foolish enough to fraternize with them. A new king has arisen, but only a few tribes see him as their true ruler.

If the Saiyans are to truly rise to their former glory, that is going to have to change.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Humanity Front(name pending)"" type=""button"">Humanity Front(name pending) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Earth is no longer a human world. In the time since the death of Majin Buu, the Saiyans have grown to almost outnumber the humans. Science and logic would dictate that the Saiyan gene should eventually die out, but with every new generation, it remains resilient to the withering of time. 

If the Saiyans had had their way all those years ago, humanity would be nothing more than a memory. Even today, the threat of annihilation is fresh on some peoples' minds. After all, It was only a few generations ago that the Trueborn attempted to exterminate the human race. It's not beyond them to try it again.

Enter Humanity Front. They formed during the Saiyan civil war as one of the many, many human resistance groups fighting against the True Sons. Initially allied with the Disciples, the leaders of the two factions eventually had a falling out. This weakened both Humanity Front's tactical position as well as their reputation. They soon set out to take on the Trueborn alone, finding that their human fighters just couldn't compete with the veteran Saiyan troops. 

Even so, as entire cities fell to the True Sons, Humanity Front's numbers swelled. By the end of the war, they numbered in the tens of thousands, and no Humanity Front member was ready to forgive the Trueborn just yet. They continued to press the True Sons, destroying any village small enough for them to handle. Though sworn enemies with the Trueborn by this point, the Disciples recognized these attacks as an affront to peace and set out to stop them. It is an alliance rarely spoken of, the Disciples and the True Sons. They fought together, eventually pushing Humanity Front out of all True Sons controlled territories.

But the fire burns on. The Saiyans have over stayed their welcome and it is high time mankind took earth back. After centuries, Humanity Front has developed a hatred for <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> Saiyans, not just those under the banner of the True Sons. Weak, small, and scattered they may be, but Humanity Front are excellent guerilla warriors. Few people are strong enough to take on any one Saiyan alone, but the threat of death does not deter them. For Humanity Front, sharing the earth with the Saiyans is akin to resigning themselves to extinction. A fate far worse than death in the eyes of the fanatical racists that now make up Humanity Front.</div></div>


[[Still have to work on the other ones, but I'll throw them up here in a bit.

[[As far as rules go, just bet on your standard RP stuff. Don't be overpowered (might be a bit tough with this one, but do your best,) don't do anything drastic with other people's characters, the works. I've never really been one for character limits, so as long as you don't have an entire legion of somehow important side characters it's fair game.

I imagine that would be general idea. I don't think there would even be half Saiyans left floating around a millennium after the series, though one could argue that the nature of the Saiyans' work for Frieza might have allowed for splintered colonies of pure-bloods to take root and grow on the unchecked fringes of the Planet Trade's empire, which would allow for some pure-blood to persist over the centuries.</div>"

Okay, that's perfect then. I'm going to agree with everyone else and say characters should be late Dragon Ball/early DBZ powerful. Like maybe Krillin level or something. The Saiyan king and probably the Guardian are going to be Super Saiyans, but they aren't going to be doing much for a while.

As for them being half-breeds, I sorta shoehorned it into the intro that the Saiyan gene is strong. Kinda just suspending disbelief on that one. If you wanna get real technical, they aren't even really the same race anymore.

I had something like that sort of planned out. Basically it goes: build up &gt;&gt; war between the Saiyans (Lucarien is going to become a major antagonist around this time &gt;&gt; Then while both sides are fighting, the invasion fleet shows up since it's the least convenient time for both sides. I have (what I believe to be) a pretty cool plan for that sub-plot with the Namekians mentioned in the first OOC post, but that's going to be later in the game. 

Still debating on whether I want to go DM or just stick with Dante and Lucarien, but the direction of the story is pretty flexible at this point.

The Disciples should be easy to get together since they're all going to start getting panicky about the True Sons infighting. There aren't really any other True Son characters right now though and Lucarien's staying in that village for a bit.

<span class=""bb-b"">Danielle (Danny) Moreau</span>

Age: 22

Short Background: Danny always wanted to travel cross-country. She had been making plans for the trip since she was in middle school. Now, finally, she had completed college and put enough money aside to realize her dreams and journey from the west coast in California to the east coast in Virginia. And so, she wasted no time in preparing her bags and filling up her tank to make the long drive across America.

Everything was going smoothly until Danny came to a small town in southern Indiana. The place didn't show up on her GPS, so she hadn't been expecting to see it on the drive. Curious, Danny decided to stay and spend the night at a cheap hotel and continue her trip in the morning. During the night, she continued to see movement in the corner of her eye as though someone was standing in the shadows, but whenever she turned to look directly at the figure, it disappeared. If it had happened only once, Danny would have written it off as her imagination, but she saw the shadow seven times.

Unnerved, Danny was eager to leave in the morning. That was when she discovered something else: All roads led back to the town. Somehow, she was trapped with no way to get out and no way to contact anyone outside of its borders.

Other: Danny sings and plays the ukulele to make some extra cash on the streets during her trip.</div></div>"

Bio: Raymond spent most of his life trying to take care of his little brother, Eric. Their parents died when they were young kids, and although Raymond tried his best to get along with their adoptive parents, but Eric was an angrier kid... Raymond stood up for Eric, like all good brothers would do... But that led to him getting in more trouble for things his brother did. So you can that they didn't stay in families very long. For a long time they seemed to get by by themselves. Raymond got jobs to help pay for meals, and finding hotels to sleep in around the East Coast. Eric never really cared much though. He was a kid who made mistakes because they didn't live the most luxurious life. 

Raymond would get in fights, run from the police, and at very desperate times, steal just to keep him and his brother safe. When they could, they attended public schools for some sort of education. Raymond also made it a purpose to read and write fluently (which wasn't hard, since their lives didn't turn this way until they reached middle school). After years of keeping Eric safe, Raymond had enough. When Raymond was 19 and Eric was 16 Raymond left, not wanting to be his body guard anymore. Raymond left for Miami, and tried his best to start over. 

Raymond had a teaching job surprisingly. Turned out that his years of teaching Eric was useful. He taught history in Georgia for a short time after he attended a community college. He was happy with his new life, but he couldn't help but think about his younger brother. He got a call one night from Eric. He wanted to apologize to him, and show him how much he's changed. He got a job in Indiana, and wanted to catch up with him after five years of silence. He took his car, and drove up, making a stop in a small town in Southern Indiana.

Other: Has a small scar across his lip from a fight. Also knows how to play a bit of guitar while trying to get money on the street.</div>"

She must have been moving around in her sleep again. She rolled over onto her back and sat up, reaching her arms over her head in a luxurious stretch. Even though it was a cheap room, this place had wonderfully comfortable mattresses. Danny usually slept poorly on her first night in a new town, but she hadn’t even woken up once during the moonlight hours. It was too bad she was only passing through the town of Terry. She wished all the hotels she would be staying in had beds like these.

Danny threw off her sheets and climbed out of the bed. She had heard that this place served free breakfast, and she didn’t want to be late. She changed into a comfy pair of sweat pants and a black tank top, and then twisted her wild red hair up into a messy bun on top of her head. Lastly, she slipped a pair of loafers onto her feet and headed down to the front lobby where the food was being served. No point in getting fancied up for a plate of bacon and eggs.

There weren’t very many people in the breakfast line, so Danny got and finished her meal quickly. Afterwards, she headed back up to her room and changed into some more publicly-acceptable clothes. She let hair fall freely over her shoulders and put on a pair of blue jeans and high-tops. Before leaving Terry town, she wanted to do a little exploring. Maybe she could even find a good spot to make some money on the street with her ukulele.

With that in mind, Danny set out to walk around and poke her head in the little shops that lined the roads. She was thoroughly enjoying herself, but she couldn’t help but notice the somber mood of the locals. They all looked tired or depressed. She wondered why. The town seemed so peaceful and pleasant. Perhaps they had lived there long enough that they were growing numb to its charm? Danny decided to try and lighten the mood by performing for the people. She found a shady spot beneath a tree in a crowded shopping center and brought her ukulele out from its case. A couple of people turned to watch her in curiosity, like they had never seen a street performer before. But then again, maybe they hadn’t.

Danny set the open case out beside her and tossed a few of her own coins inside to give her audience a hint. She strummed the nylon strings to make sure her instrument was tuned, and then began to play a song. When she started to sing, a few passerbys stopped to listen. By the time Danny finished her first song, a small crowd had gathered. They clapped politely and some put money in her ukulele case.

After about an hour, she felt like she had made a decent amount of cash, so she put her instrument away and went back to her hotel room to pack her things. As much as she liked the atmosphere of the little town, she had to move on. She still had plenty of ground to cover before she reached the east coast.

Danny filled her suitcase and brought it out to her car, loading it into the trunk. She climbed into the driver’s seat and took off down the narrow road leading out of Terry town. She looked in the rearview mirror to get one final glimpse of the town. When she did, her heart skipped a beat. For a second, it looked like there was someone sitting in her back seat. When she blinked, the figure disappeared, but her heart still raced in shock. She turned her eyes back to the road and shook her head. It must have been her imagination.

She turned on the radio to distract herself from the strange apparition and continued to drive down the street. Soon, the buildings outside gave way to trees as she entered the surrounding forest… but then the trees gave way to more buildings. Danny frowned. This was odd. The nearest city was many miles away, so she shouldn’t have seen buildings again for at least a half an hour. She narrowed her eyes to read a sign on the side of the road: <span class=""bb-b"">WELCOME TO TERRY TOWN</span>. This was even more unusual. Danny was sure she hadn’t made any turns when she left. The road was as straight as an arrow. Maybe it curved at some point and she just hadn’t noticed?

Danny turned her car around and tried to head out in the opposite direction. She definitely remembered coming into the town from this street the day before. She probably just missed the exit while she was distracted by the music on the radio. But after a while, she saw the sign again with its now-ominous writing: <span class=""bb-b"">WELCOME TO TERRY TOWN</span>. Okay, this was getting weird.

Danny drove back into the town and tried a different street, but she continued to return as faithfully as a boomerang. After the fourth dead end, she was feeling slightly unnerved. After the seventh, she was thoroughly freaked out. Locals with grim faces watched her circle helplessly. Danny avoided their sullen gazes. Now she was certain: Something was definitely wrong with this place.

--

Danny crawled out of bed and headed down to breakfast with her red hair and over-sized clothes disheveled. She yawned tiredly as she walked down the stairs to the front lobby for breakfast. It had been three days since she arrived in this godforsaken town, and the stress of it all was wearing her out. She tried calling one of her friends for help yesterday, but there was no cellphone reception anywhere. She was beginning to think that she would be trapped here forever.

After breakfast, Danny cleaned herself up and headed out the shopping center with her ukulele again. She knew she should probably start thinking about getting a job, but she if she starting working permanently in the town that would make her situation feel too real. She wanted to cling to the hope that she could get out of here somehow. And so, she continued to earn money with music.

Danny settled down beneath the tree and set her ukulele case out like she had on her first day in Terry. A small crowd had already gathered nearby to watch her perform. In the three days she had been here, it seemed like she had already earned a reputation. Well, it wasn’t a bad thing. She needed as much money as she could get, and if the locals were willing to pay her, she wasn’t going to complain.

Danny quickly tuned her ukulele and began to play her first <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCt-wDIdaAc"">song</a>:

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool dawn run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention.
I reckon, it's again my turn
To win some or learn some.

But I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm yours.

Well, open up your mind and see like me,
Open up your plans and damn you're free.
Look into your heart and you'll find love, love, love, love.
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing, we're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved, loved

So I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm sure.
There's no need to complicate.
Our time is short.
This is our fate,
I'm yours.

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed.

I guess what I'll be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons.
It's what we aim to do.
Our name is our virtue.

But I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm yours.</span></span></div>"

Not too long before I get to your place.""

""Great! I'm excited to see you Ray... Its been a real long time.""

""Yeah.""

""Look. I know I wasn't a good kid, and I know I fucked up a lot... But I promise you I've changed.""

""Alright Eric. Look, I'll call you when I get in to Indianapolis.""

""Alright Ray. I love yo--""

Raymond Chase waited for his little brother to finish his sentence, but when he looked at his phone, he realized that the line was dead. His phone was not working. At this point, Raymond didn't know whether or not he charged his phone that morning. He had been driving north for some time now to visit his younger brother who now lived in Indianapolis. The last time he saw him, Ray went off on Eric saying he couldn't be his body guard anymore, and left the angry kid alone. There were times he regretted that decision, but then again, he mostly didn't. He loved his brother, and would do anything for him, but he never appreciated it, and he knew that he didn't want to live on the streets forever.

<span class=""bb-b"">Welcome to Terry Town</span> a sign read as he entered the town. It looked a nice town actually, but as he looked at the people walking down the street, they looked at his car full of sorrow or pity. What was that for? Did his car really look that bad? He parked his car outside the small little restaurant and inn, walking in and seeing the place a bit empty. He got a quick thing to eat. A cheeseburger and some fries. He looked at the waitress and saw her looking at him with that same look of pity. He stared at her with a raised eyebrow, her dark green eyes showing confusion. 

He quickly ate his burger, feeling a bit uncomfortable, and made his way outside. A small crowd was forming at the park across the street, and the sound of pleasant ukulele playing coming from the center. He followed the sound of the music, and coming across a red headed girl singing a nice tune. He smiled a bit at the thought, looking at the people showing a bit of happiness in their faces. Raymond pulled out his cell phone again, but still seeing that it wasn't showing any sign of turning on. huh. Weird.</div>"
55,Curse of the Shadow [Jones Sparrow + Summer],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75876-curse-of-the-shadow-jones-sparrow-summer,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-01 22:36:00,Dagger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Danielle finished her song and the spectators dropped their spare change into her ukulele case. She gave them the friendliest smile she could muster. She still didn’t know if anyone else here was aware of the strange circling roads. If they did, they didn’t seem to care much. Every time she asked the locals about her problem, they would just give her weird looks or click their tongues and shake their heads as if she was a child who was just learning how hard life was in the real world. Their apathy bothered her. Still, she needed money, so she would just have to keep her irritation to herself.

Just as Danny was about to start her next song, she caught sight of something that made her pause. Among the crowd of people that had gathered around her, there was one person who didn’t share the ever-present, sullen stare that plagued most of the locals in Terry town. A man was looking down at the screen of his cellphone. He seemed frustrated about something. The emotion on his face was the most human thing Danny had seen since she arrived in this godforsaken place. Maybe there were normal people in Terry, after all.

Well, either way, she didn’t have time to ponder this now. The spectators were waiting, and she didn’t want them to leave. Danny turned her eyes away from the man and started to play her next <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkBJBPoK4WA"">song</a>:

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead</span></span>

By the end of the song, many of the people in Danny’s audience had filtered back into the other parts of the shopping center. Only a few stuck around to listen to her finish, but that was okay. She had made enough money for one day, and she was getting hungry. Maybe she could grab something to eat at one of the restaurants in the area.

Danny put her instrument away and got to her feet, slinging the strap of her ukulele case over one shoulder. She checked the time on her phone —displaying the time was all it was good for these days— and looked around for a place to get some food, stuffing the cellphone unceremoniously into the back pocket of her jeans.</div>"

Half of the people started to leave, their faces getting back to their look of self pity and despair. He looked back at the red head girl, she took out her phone, and started to put her stuff away. He really needed to get out of here. If he wanted to see Eric by tonight, he had to hit the road. He wasn't going to disappoint him, even if Eric disappointed him. That wasn't the point. They were trying to bring the small family they had back together, and he was tired of being alone in this world.

He walked up to the red head, looking around and seeing no one was around. ""Excuse me, Miss?"" Raymond asked with a smile, trying his best to be friendly. ""May I please borrow your phone? Mine's not working, and I really need to get a hole of someone."" Raymond said, hopeful he could talk to Eric and tell him he might be a bit later than expected. This place was starting to freak him out. The people seemed to walk around in a routine, their eyes blank, looking paler than most people... But this woman was different. She still had this joy flowing through her in a way. She seemed like a care free spirit, what with her ukulele playing and singing. He felt more comfortable to ask her questions than anyone else here in the town of Terry.</div>"

Danielle turned at the sound of a voice. She was surprised to see the man she had picked out from the crowd standing in front of her. It was strangely ironic that he had approached her after she had noticed him. No one else had come up to her in the few days she had spent in Terry Town. Maybe this man really was different than the others. Well… insofar as she could tell, his <span class=""bb-i"">voice</span> was different. It was almost eerie to hear someone speak without a monotone, after enduring days of drawling locals. The human ring to it was pleasant on her ears.

<font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“May I please borrow your phone?”</span></font> The man asked, offering a friendly smile. <font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“Mine's not working, and I really need to get ahold of someone.”</span></font>

“Oh, I’m sorry,” Danny held her hands out in a helpless shrug. “Mine isn’t working either. I think this town just has bad reception.”

A dozen different thoughts flitted through Danny’s mind. This man was obviously new to Terry if he had only just discovered that his phone didn’t work here. She wondered where he came from; why he was here. Just how much did he know about the town? Was he trapped, too? She wanted to bombard him with questions, but she held her tongue. If he wasn’t stuck on the looping roads, she would only look like a raving lunatic by mentioning them. She would have to play her cards more carefully than that. Still, she couldn’t help the newfound hope that bubbled up in her chest. Perhaps the man was her key to escape from this prison at last.

“You know,” Danny said. “You seem pretty new around here, and most people don’t come to Terry Town to sightsee. I’m going to guess you have someplace you’re headed. Am I right?” She couldn’t let him go just yet. She had to think of a way to keep him talking so she could glean some more information out of him. She stood on her tiptoes to peer over the man’s shoulder. “If you’re not in a hurry, there’s a decent coffee shop just over there. I can give you a rundown of the town and all its perks, if you’d like. Even if you’re just passing through, there are some nice little spots I’d recommend visiting before you leave. What do you say?”</div>"
58,Curse of the Shadow [Jones Sparrow + Summer],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75876-curse-of-the-shadow-jones-sparrow-summer,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-25 23:52:00,Jones Sparrow,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Raymond frowned at the red head's response to his question. Her phone was out too? He glanced down at his phone yet again before putting it in his pocket in defeat. Great. He wondered if there were any payphones around that he could try to use. Her voice snapped him back in to reality, looking at her when she said he looked new, and had some place else to be. He nodded, looking around at the other citizens again before back at her. ""Yeah, heading up to Indianapolis..."" Raymond said. He didn't go in to details. One he just met the girl, and didn't want to bore her with his sob story, and he was getting weird vibes from this place, and was hesitant to trust the people here.

The thought of wanting to stay in Terry Town any longer wasn't very appealing. What exactly was there to see in this town? A bunch of depressed looking people and a cute red head who had a good singing voice? He was sure he could find that anywhere else, but looking at the girl again, there was a sense of desperation. She was the first one to really have a conversation with him in this town, not even the people in that little restaurant said a combination of ten words to him. He gave a smile and nod. ""Sounds good."" 

Together they walked, Raymond's hands in his pockets as the red head was next to him. ""I didn't catch your name before. I'm Raymond Chase."" The man said looking over at her again. Might as well try to be friendly, he hasn't talked to anyone in person for a while, this road trip was a long one.</div>"

She really didn’t care if he wanted to know about it or not, but now she had an opportunity to find out why she was stuck here. Well, she still couldn’t be sure he could answer any of her questions, but he was the best chance she had so far. Now she just had to figure out a way to get information out of him without looking like a complete nutcase.

<font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“I didn’t catch your name before,”</span></font> the man said, pulling Danny from her thoughts. <font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“I’m Raymond Chase.”</span></font>

“Nice to meet you, Raymond,” she said in reply, meeting his gaze with a friendly smile. “My name’s Danielle Moreau, but you can just call me Danny. Ah, here we are.” She waved a hand at the entrance to the little coffee shop. “I know it’s not much to look at, but I promise they have good drinks.” The front doors had been left open for customers to come and go freely, so she stepped inside, gesturing for Raymond to follow her.

“So,” Danny said as she got in line —it was a short one with only two other people ahead of them— and idly looked over the menu. “Have you ever been to Terry before or is it your first time here?” She glanced at Raymond curiously. It was a subtle inquiry, but hopefully it would be enough to get at least a few of her real questions answered without bluntly asking: ‘are you trapped in this cursed place, too?’</div>"

It was small, cozy, the different scents of coffees. The front was run by only one woman, the same glazed over look in her eyes. Ray stood in line behind Danny. He followed suit with Danny's gaze, looking at the menu. He wasn't really in the mood for coffee. He was starting to lose a bit of his patience as the line seemed to barely go by, even with just the four of them. He shook his head at her question, looking away from the menu and towards her. ""No, I never knew this place existed.""

Raymond spent most of his life travelling up and down the east coast, so Indiana was foreign territory to him. He knew the stereotypical things about this state. Cornfields, The Colts, and Indianapolis. One of the people in line finally got their order, and he walked by, his shoulder bumping in to Ray's. The man didn't say anything, he just kept on going. Ray watched him exit the store, then looked at Danny yet again. ""This town doesn't really scream 'welcome, tourists'. You don't act or look like a local."" Ray pointed out, trying to confirm his suspicions of her being a traveler just like he once was.</div>"

How new he was, Danny had yet to find out although, with the uncomfortable way he looked around the depressing townspeople, it was likely that he hadn’t been here for very long. He probably didn’t even know about the looping roads yet. Danny’s heart sank as another thought came to her. Apart from this man, she hadn’t seen any other travelers in Terry Town. It was possible that she was the only one who was stuck here, after all.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“This town doesn't really scream ‘welcome, tourists,’”</span></font> Raymond said as one of the other coffee shop customers brushed past his shoulder. <font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“You don’t act or look like a local.”</span></font><br/><br/>“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Danny said, watching the man shuffle mirthlessly out of the building. “But no, I’m not a local. I was on my way to the East coast, but due to… err… <span class=""bb-i"">circumstances</span>, I’ve been staying here for the past few days. Oh, by the way, don’t worry about paying for that drink. I’ll cover you just this once. Consider it a welcoming gift.” She smiled and turned to the barista before Raymond could argue with her. “Hi there. I’ll have a small iced tea.” The man nodded absently and took down her order, then looked at Raymond, waiting for him to say what he wanted.</div>"

It was the truth. He didn't know how to explain it, but she still had a bit of fight in her. He was going to protest about her paying for his drink, but Danny was already talking to the barista. Both of their attention moved to him, waiting for him to order something. He glanced up at the menu yet again, and then took a small step forward. ""I'll have a coffee, a lot of milk and cream please."" Ray said. As the two waited for their drinks, Ray looked over at Danny and gave a smile. ""Thanks for paying... So you're heading to the East Coast? I'd stay out of Newark. People there are like New Yorkers but a bit greasier, and traffic is terrible."" Ray decided to keep with light conversation, even if it sounded a bit half hearted. After his years on the road and him already being a bit cautious of this town, he had a weird feeling she was hiding something from him.<br/><br/>The two got their drinks, Ray giving a smile and ""thank you"" and the barista simply gave a dull smile and walked away from the two. ""You visiting any family on the Coast, or site seeing?"" Ray decided to ask between their sips of coffee and tea. The coffee had a bit of a bitter and bland taste to it, he thought it fit the town rather nicely, but he didn't say it out loud.</div>"

Come on, I said I’d show you around town. Walk and talk.” She waved a hand, gesturing for him to follow her as she exited the coffee shop. They passed another dreary customer on their way out the door, to whom she nodded politely and from whom she received no response. She just shrugged and kept going. After three days of living with the emotionless townspeople, she was used to their weird habits.<br/><br/>“Let’s see,” Danny mused, looking around the little shopping center. She scrambled to think of something interesting to show him, but Terry Town really was a boring place. There wasn’t much beyond the small stores and plain buildings, and she doubted Raymond would be thrilled to visit any of those. She couldn’t let him go just yet, though. He was her first real shot at getting out of this place, and she couldn’t pass up the opportunity.<br/><br/>“You know what?” Danny said, struck with a sudden idea. “Why don’t you decide what you want to see first? I know you’ve never been here before, but is there anything you might want to look for? Maybe a souvenir store or a recreational stop? There has to be something.” She looked up at him, hoping he would take up her offer. “You’re the boss. Just name the place, and I’ll find it for you.”</div>"

Not something he was a fan of. He was done traveling, especially while driving up north now to get stuck in a place like this. When she then told him how they will ""walk and talk"" Raymond gave a small smile. He had a feeling there wasn't much to this town, and as they stepped outside to the dazed looking city. They had the street that was empty with the occasional parked car on the curb, the small park, and the line of old fashioned stores that any other back road town would have. <br/><br/>When asked what he wanted to see, Raymond looked around, then gave a laugh and shrug. ""I'm not sure. Never been to one of these places before... How about a place to get a souvenir. A ""I heart Indy"" bumper sticker or something."" Raymond said with another laugh, and it quietly died out as he saw the blank faces of the townspeople here. He turned to her and sighed. ""I'm sorry if I'm acting a bit like an ass. Its just, I was driving up to see someone, and as soon as I get here my phone dies, and I keep getting looks like I'm going to die soon."" Raymond said. <br/><br/>""So, a souvenir would be good. A little gag gift for this.. interesting little town."" Raymond nodded with a small smile, waiting for her to lead the way. As they continued to walk, Raymond decided to start some small talk again. ""You usually stay a couple days in towns on the road? Or just when you're too exhausted?""  </div>"

She had been here long enough to know that the locals didn’t mean any harm, but their blank faces and monotone voices were still unnerving. Raymond really hit the nail on the head when he said he was ‘getting looks like he was going to die soon.’ She had gotten the same impression when she first arrived in this place.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“You usually stay a couple days in towns on the road?”</span></font> Raymond asked. <font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“Or just when you’re too exhausted?”</span></font><br/><br/>“No,” Danny said slowly, trying to think of a plausible excuse. ‘I like this town’ didn’t sound very believable at this point, but there was no way she could tell him the truth without sounding like a lunatic. “I was gonna keep going to the next town over, but something came up. I’m just staying here until everything… works itself out.” There. That wasn’t a half bad response. It was vague, but acceptable. She felt quite pleased with herself.<br/><br/>Danny then noticed a commotion on the side of the road. A group of townspeople were gathered in a ring, staring down at the ground. They were murmuring to each other incoherently. Danny slowed to a stop, watching the strange event from a distance. Okay, this was strange; even more so than usual. The locals never took interest in <span class=""bb-i"">anything</span>, so what had they found that actually caught their attention? She glanced at Raymond, “Maybe there’s a street fight. Want to go check it out?”</div>"

""Yeah, that's the way it seems to work. Always something popping up."" Ray shrugged, knowing all too well that that was his life. Always something popping up to screw them over. It was life, and Raymond was good at putting up a good fight. Ray then noticed that he was now walking by himself. Danny was too busy looking across the street. Ray walked back towards her, staring at the new crowd. The only time this happened since he's been here was when Danny was singing. <br/><br/>Raymond was curious, so when Danny asked if he wanted to check it out, he gave a nod, and together they walked forward. The closer the two got to the crowd, the more and more creepy the scene became. The crowd was muttering things that Raymond couldn't understand, but in the center of the circle they made, were three figures. Two people, a man and a woman, were standing over another man, who seemed to be crying. The two standing over him were glaring, whispering harsh things that again, Raymond couldn't understand. What he did understand was that the two started to kick him.<br/><br/>Raymond tore through the circle, walking up to them. ""Hey... Hey! Back off! Stop! Hey!"" Raymond yelled. The two didn't respond to him, and continued to kick the man on the ground. Raymond pushed away the man and woman, their whispers becoming louder. ""Worthless"" Was what Raymond heard coming from their mouths. The two kept coming back to kick him until Raymond pushed harder, making them fall as well.<br/><br/>The only sound now was the man on the ground crying. Except he wasn't crying, he was laughing. It was a maniac's laughter, like the ones you hear in the movies when someone has completely lost it. He was curled up, laughing. Raymond leaned down next to him, seeing if he was alright. ""W-we're all d-d-dead..."" The man cackled, rubbing his head in the ground. Raymond gently put his hand on the man's shoulder, and as soon as he made contact, the laughing got louder. ""Dead dead dead..."" The man said softly.<br/><br/>Raymond swallowed hard, his mind telling him to get the hell away from this man. ""Hey, are you alri--"" He was cut off by the man shooting upward, his face now inches from Raymond's. ""WE ARE ALL DEAD!"" The man screamed with another fit of laughter. He put his hands on Raymond's shirt, and started banging. ""It's all worthless! There's no hope, this town won't let us! Its Hell"" He screamed at him, then looking at everyone else. Raymond pushed him back hard, backing away until he hit the legs of the people surrounding them. Ray then backed away from them, scrambling to his feet. He yet again felt hands on his shoulders, turning to see the crazed man again. ""We might as well kill each other now, eh? End the suffering!"" <br/><br/>Raymond pushed, but the man wouldn't budge. In a desperate effort Raymond punched the man, with Raymond being much bigger, the man flew back on the ground, laughing again. ""yes, th-the pain feels...."" he gave a weak chuckle. ""There's no way out... Terry is Hell..."" He muttered, cackling again. Raymond stared at him, backing out of the circle looking around at the people now staring at him. Raymond's heart was racing, his breaths heavy. What the hell was wrong with these people?! What did the man mean with all of this bullshit?Forget the souvenir shop, he wanted to get out of here. Now!</div>"

Origin: a lesser demon- born from Malevolence. He roams about the lower circles of hell, keeping order amongst the sinners there. He has recently been promoted to a demon of possession, by the hand of his master, who has personally sent Vay to earth on an assignment to corrupt and torment certain individuals. The first of which is your artist.

Personality: like all demons he is cruel, manipulative, and cunning. He's very naive, however, when it comes to things in the human world- in fact he takes everything said to him seriously. He has the mentality of a child, it seems, and thus he feels no guilt or shame over his acts. He is keenly interested in the human world and everything that goes on within- so he'll often pose as a human just to experience every day life.

Abilities: he has a wide range of abilities- he can take the form of every day objects or even people. He can change the sound of his voice, even, to complete the disguise. His claws secrete acid. As a lesser demon he cannot retain much of the powers that other demons have (such as telekinesis and other forms of illusion)

He has a human guise that others (save for your artist) see him as:

Biography: <span class=""bb-b"">Jessilyn was born into wealth. Her parents were the owners of many hospitals in the area, thus she didn't need to worry about money. Her parents put her in the most advanced schools, and gave her anything and everything she could ever want. She grew up spoiled rotten, along with her older brother, Adrian. Her brother went to college for Administration, and successfully completed his degree. Her brother ended up running hospitals along with his parents. Jessilyn decided to go to college and get her master's in art. She completed a bachelors degree, and is taking online classes for her masters, although she still has to appear at her college for other classes.

Jessiyln began her career at 23 as a 3-Dimensional Sculpture, and worked on many installation, never having any of them bought from museums or private collectors. So she began to do paintings, which she found easier than the installations, but found them to be more time consuming. A year later, she asked for a job at her parents hospitals as an interior decorator, but her parents would not budge on giving her a job. They were disappointed that she chose a profession that was hard to master. Her father told her the only way to become somebody in New York was to strike a deal with the devil. So later that night, she would preform a ritual.</span></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Hoytt Al Sarrad/24/m</span>

Personality: he's a sweetheart and seems to care about Jess a lot. He has this big brother complex with her and often checks up on her- usually to see if she's eaten or slept well. He's prone to bouts of silences though- meaning that he locks himself away in his apartment for days on end working on projects or studying. He's stubborn and moody. Likes to look like he has everything under control. Prefers facts over faith when making decisions. He sulks a lot, it seems, and broods over something that he hasn't shared with Jess yet.

Background: Hoytt belongs to a wealthy saudi arabian family- he moved here, alone, four years ago to carve out his own path. His father wanted him to take over the family business and marry- but Hoytt wasn't hearing any of that noise. Instead he shipped himself off to America to attend a university and live a life separate from his families- so he could ""grow"" into the man he wanted to be. His mother still sends him a shit ton of money to support him, though, even though his father has totally disowned him. 

Job: student

<span class=""bb-b"">Aurel Gosse/23/m</span>

Personality: a bright ball of sunshine. He's peppy and happy and loves to make others laugh. Affectionate and kind he won't hesitate to make a fool out of himself to make someone smile. Aurel is loud and enjoys doing things that let him be as loud as he wants. He lobes the outdoors and is actually an avid mountain climber. He can get over-protective and even jealous at times- but he'll usually back off when he catches himself. In short he's always happy and quite the dork.

Background: He met Jess just before college and has been friends with her since. They attend the same school- although they took different majors. He belongs to a french family (that, unlike Hoytt's, actually shipped him off themselves) and is the only child to two business tycoons. The only family he has here in America is an aunt who hates dealing with him.

Job: student- illustrator (by commission)  bartender

<span class=""bb-b"">Joyce Moore/37/f</span>

Personality: very too the point and strict- she's all about schedules and lists and keeping to them. Punctual, pretentious and prissy- she can be pretty annoying to deal with. But she often makes up for these things with her keen perception of how others feel around her. She considerate to the needs of others and, possibly because shes away from her kids so long, treats those that work with her as her own children.

Background: Mrs.Moore is a mother of three who lives on the other side of town. She is a lawyer who personally has no interest in art. She acts more like a mother than an agent at times- although, when she succumbs to the pressures of the company she works under, she can be harsh.

His hands were bloodied, bones peering out from beneath sliced skin, and they tried to draw out his own, or perhaps his sympathy. The demons eyes looked down at the dead man and he pondered the fragile creature for a handful of moments. They stood just beside the sea of ragged bodies- the newly arrived sinners from the Gate- marching off toward the Palace. The man at his feet was not the only soul wailing- they all were- screaming and crying things he'd heard thousands of times before. None of this was new. None of this phased him. With an annoyed flick the demon brushed the creature off of him and kicked him back into the Sea of the Damned. He fell into a handful of others- but they were so dazed and grief stricken that they only pushed the thrown man out of their way, making sure not to help him up once he fell under their feet.

Vaylian watched as the poor soul was crushed under the feet of the thousands swarming the path. The screams raised high above the others and continued for some time- for he would and could not die now. The blue demon scanned the crowds again, bringing a claw up to his mouth to pick at something caught between his teeth. His arrowed tail swished once before he felt a familiar presence by his side. He turned his black eyes on Ashirom, a fellow demon that aided him in scouring the Sea for any out of the ordinary activity. The lesser demon cleared his throat and held up some parchment into his companions face,

""Master bids you appear before him."" 

""And what is this?""

""Your contract of employment- it has something to do with it, I assume."" And at once they were off, jogging alongside the Sea, headed toward the palace.

***

Once they arrived to the main gates of the Palace Ashirom stopped and bid him farewell, claiming that he had no business to see their master other then to send Vay on his way. The demons parted without another word. He shouldered past the mortals until he reached the head of the line- where normally Satan would be seated. However his throne was empty at the moment, it seemed, for whatever reason. He thought it odd that he was sent for but not met. Just then a curtain was drawn from beside the throne and a short demon poked their horns out from the shadows. Vay stood on attention as this demon strolled out only to beacon him with a hand into the darkness behind the curtain.

""Master,"" he called once behind the curtain, ""you have summoned me.""

As his eyes adjusted to the dim light he noted that he was in the corner study of Satans right hand and that this was his first time being here. Three others besides himself stood within the room. The largest of which sat at its center, the embers of his eyes glared down at him as they spoke,

""Summoned, yes. Summoned is exactly what you have been."" Croaked the demon, exhaling vapors as it spoke.

""You confuse me."" Admitted Vay, keeping his expression even and stoic. The master demon shifted where he sat and clapped his hands once. A circle of light at the center of the room burst to life between them. Suddenly Vay knew exactly what was going on.

""You've been promoted. Your first assignment awaits.""</div>"

Jessilyn walked up the metal staircase outside the building her apartment was in. She was careful to walk on the ice of the steps. The snow had been coming down since yesterday, and it was a horrible blizzard. Her fingers felt raw and ached with a cold pain. She huffed her warm breath into the gloves she had on them. As she reached the outside of the 2nd floor of the two story building, she pulled her keys out of her pocket, sliding her apartment key into deadbolt, and unlocking the door. She headed inside the apartment. Although she had no funds from her artwork, she lived off her trust fund set up by her parents. With the way her life was going, her funds would run out by this time next year. Her parents would not pay for her to go to Art School, so she had to use her trust fund they had set up for her since she was a baby. 

Her trust fund consisted of $100,000. She used the majority of it to pay for her college. at $10,000 a semester at the most proficient art college in the world in Paris, she was down to her last $20,000. Her one bedroom apartment itself was $800 a month including all utilities. She had her $110 insurance bill on her paid off Dodge Charger a month, and the rest was for gas a food. She set herself up a $1,000 monthly budget to make her funds last for at least 20 months, but she knew it was just an estimate. In real time, she wouldn't last more than a year before going back to her parents to be sent off to a Business college for four more years. 

She shook her head at the thought and walked into the apartment. It was a nice apartment, considering the price for rent. She walked onto the hard wood floors. To her right was a sectional couch that slid along the wall away from the front door and against the wall on the right. In front of her was a hallway that led to her room and her master bathroom, and a wall that separated the kitchen and living room. She hung up her gray jacket on the coat rack hanging on the wall next to the door. 

She took the plastic bags full of supplies she had purchased and walked to the middle of the large living area, dumping everything out into the floor. The contents included salt, incense candles, black charcoal, a silver gauntlet, and a knife. In the floor, she draw an eight foot diameter pentagram in black chalk, and poured salt in a circle around the pentagram, as to trap the demon inside of the pentagram after summoning it. If it was a demon who could not fulfill her desires, she would not allow it to enter her life. She placed a candle at each corner of the pentagram, lighting them and then turning out the lights. She kneeled into the middle of the pentagram and placed the silver gauntlet into the middle of the star. She took the knife and wrapped her hand around the blade, pulling it out of her hand quickly and feeling the blade slice open her hand. She pulled her hand into a fist and squeezed hard, watching the blood trickle into the gauntlet. 

""I am calling for a demon to grant my desires, and offering my physical body in return,"" she said. She stepped out of the pentagram, to see if her ritual had done anything. The pentagram itself was a portal and if there were any demons there to grant her desires, she would do as much as she could to get what she wanted.</div></div></div>"

This sudden burst soon died away and their embers tampered down to only blue flames. A nearby television turned on and began to flick through the channels- picking up in speed until the tv itself was turning on and off again. Other appliances about the room followed in this behavior- roaring to life only to die out and then repeat again. This strange activity carried on for a series of moments until the room fell in to silence once more, throwing the room into darkness, save for the dim light of the candles.

<span class=""bb-i"">spill the blood... spill the blood... cut its throat and spill the blood... spill the blood</span>

Whispered voices from the darkness, their tongues dancing behind sharpened teeth. The sudden presence of a handful of beings was now eminent in the room. They seemed to chant at first but soon their voices grew in distinction- feverishly hissing other horrible things. A low wail rose from amongst them and permeated the room.

<span class=""bb-i"">she was just so small- I didn't mean to- I didn't- she was just so small and so weak. Oh god- oh god- and she cried... She cried in that tiny voice of hers and I just HAD TO DO IT I HAD TO KILL HER- fuck... Fuck oh my god I killed her.... My baby girl I killed her...</span>

Hissed a female voice from amongst them. As she cried the pentagram began to glow.

<span class=""bb-i"">the axe is by the door... No we use it for wood... Yes wood for the fires... No for the fires... For the fires we use the axe for the fires... The fires... Wood for the axe for the fires! I axe the fires for the wood- no I axe the wood for the fires- for the fires that keep us warm... We keep the axe by the door for the fires... What? Blood? In the fires- no, on the axe- we axe wood for the fires! Wood... Wood sometimes bleeds.. But to keep us warm</span>

Ranted a nervous male voice, just as a shape began to emerge from the pentagram.

<span class=""bb-i"">so what if I fuckin brained her- the bitch had it coming- huh? How'd I do it? I drilled holes in her throat for every one of our kids-</span>

Came the hoarse growl from amongst the voices. The shape molded itself into horns, then a head and shoulders. A pair of bright eyes burst open just as the demon struck out its arms from the portal to pull itself seemingly out of the floor.

<span class=""bb-i"">we make sure to keep them all in the shed- the wife likes to play loud classical music while they cry out during our parties</span>

Soon he stood at full height over her. The pentagrams light died as his body solidified within it and the voices hushed, as if to hear him.

Vaylian, literally, blinked the light out of his eyes and scanned the room quickly. It was dark and he smelled blood. The blue demon looked down at his feet, where the cup sat. He scooped it up, sniffed it, and then looked down at his client.

""Your request for a contract has been acknowledged."" His voice was deep and predatorial, not unlike that of a tiger, if they spoke of course.

""State your desire and pay for it- with your soul.""</div>"

She had no clue that the ritual would have this affect. She didn't know for sure that the demon would just present itself the way it had. Her heart was beating miles a minutes. The thought of having her desires granted was mouthwatering. The thought of being a somebody was too wonderful to pass up. 

But then she started to think of the consequences of her actions. If there were real demons in the world, then surely there was a hell. The thought of hell made the hairs on her arms raise. She turned to face away from him, and started breathing fast and deep. 

""Oh my god- what have I done?"" she asked aloud, pacing back and forth throughout the living area. She really don't know just how bad she fucked up. She couldn't comprehend what she had done, nor did she actually believe it would work. She didn't want to sell her soul to the devil, but on the other hand, she wanted to be somebody in life. She wanted to prove to her parents that her time in college was not a waste of money or time. 

She looked back up at the blue demon. She could feel the room spinning, and could feel herself become dizzy. She shook the feeling away and stepped forward, deciding on whether or not she was royally screwed. She needed to make a change in life, and she was going to start with the biggest sacrifice of her life. 

""Before the contract is signed, I would like to know your terms. In exchange for becoming a world-renowned artist, is there any way we could barter on your price?"" she asked.</div>"

""Any desire is yours for the ultimate sacrifice. No barters will be accepted. Once the soul is sold it cannot be returned. Once the contract is signed the engagement is final. However-"" and his gaze was suddenly distant as he recalled something, ""a soul can be bought back only in place of another, willing replacement.""

Vaylian focused back on the client, his tail unwound from behind him and swished about, although it did not pass over the salt barrier.

""Simple, straightforward terms. Your decision?"" With a wave of a hand a parchment soon appeared from his palm, which he held out to her with the cup. A quill pen jutted out from between his fingers for her to sign with.

Invasively he stared at her, waiting patiently for a reply.</div>"
86,Deal with the Devil,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75881-deal-with-the-devil,['1x1'],2015-01-29 03:38:00,CupcakeQueen,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">""A willing replacement?"" she asked. She could see a way around that area, but still, the choice to sign away her soul to a demon is still a hard choice to make. She gripped the quill in between her fingers and dipped the quill in the gauntlet of blood, tapping it against the rim to make sure the excess blodd wouldn't ruin the parchment. 

She glared at the parchment, and read the fine print of her desires being granted for the exchange of her soul. She tapped the quill's feathers against her cheeks, feeling the soft suppleness of it. The choice was a hard one to make, but at the same time she wanted the be a somebody. The only thing she wanted more was her parents approval of her lifestyle, and with the desires that he could grant, she would be able to do just that. 

She touched the quill to the parchment, and began signing her name at the bottom.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Jessilyn Nicole Baker</span></div>

She had no idea what the fuck she just did.</div></div></div>"

The demon that crouched before her began to eagerly fidget and writhe within the circle. He sort of paced, like an animal in a cage, within the barrier. The impatience was clear on his expression and movements- but his voice was measured as he went on,

""Break the circle. Allow me to breach this plane and your wish will be granted."" The distortions in his where slightly more eminent now. It was as if three people were talking at once, from the pit of his throat. The blue flames quivered as he spoke and stood stiffly when he did not.

The affects of the contract would most likely begin within the hour. He was entirely unsure of the exact time- given that it often varied concerning the desires. Unsurprisingly this human wanted power. Although, honestly, this did not wholly concern him. He would not be returned to hell until he was called upon- so if this human granted it- he could roam about for some time. A part of him wanted to see how her wish would play out, however, and he was sure that he would stick around just to find out.</div>"

She hurried back into the living room and began sweeping up the salt. She broke the lines, allowing him onto the plane of Earth. 

""So I take it that you do not mean any harm to me, right?"" she asked, continuing to sweep up the salt. She felt that she was more calm than others would have been. Maybe it just hasn't sunk in yet. She <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> just make a deal with a demon. If she had any clue as to what she got herself into, she probably would have never made the deal with the devil's minions. She looked back up at the blue demon, almost feeling somewhat concerned that he did not return back to the underworld. 

""Are you staying in my life?"" she asked, sweeping the salt into the dustpan. She began walking back into the kitchen to dump the salt into the garbage pail. She turned back to face him, folding her arms across her chest.</div></div></div>"

""Yes."" He affirmed just as his eye caught a mirror. As he scaled along a wall to it, his blue tail lashing about as he did so, he informed her,

""Your contract has just been sent down for approval. Once its been stamped- you desire will be in place and you will find that quite a number of things in your life will change. More recognition. New relationships, perhaps. It will all go according to how your life would be like as a successful... Er... Artist."" He was unfamiliar with the term, so he merely echoed it in hopes to convey his point.

Soon he was looking in to the mirror, which hung on the wall he had his claws dug in to. Its surface reflected not his face nor the room behind him, but a fiery view of hell.

""I'll be staying for a while, yes. Its customary that we stay for some time... Just to make sure everything plays out smoothly."" He tapped on the glass a few times, as if punching in some code,

""Allow me to call the boss, if you don't mind."" He mumbled casually, happy now that all of the formalities were over with.</div>"

She just couldn't face her parents with a demon looming around her, or go out in public with him hanging around her.

At that moment, when he started pecking on the glass, she could see the flames in the mirror. It gave her inspiration at that moment. She ran out of the room and to her supply closet in the master bedroom. She grabbed a box that contained her acrylics, oils, and pastels and grabbed a cotton canvas and her easel. She dragged her supplies into the living room and set up her work station, grabbing her palette and acrylic oils out of her wooden box and began setting up the blues, whites, reds, yellows, blacks, browns, and whites. She could see painting a demon who was intrigued by mirrors, but it was even better to paint a demon using a mirror to contact the devil himself. She began painting the outlines, hoping he would not mind that he was her subject matter in the painting.</div></div></div>"

This demon was heavy-set and incredibly ugly. A symbol on its forehead denoted that it belonged to some high rank. This was his father- although no familial attachment was made between demons save for with Satan himself- and so he saw this beast as his master, sometimes even as just an employer. His place under this demon was amongst all 666 of his slave children- a legion, as it was called on the surface. Of course their situation was not singular- his master had 665 other siblings who worked under their father/slave master and <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> was under the power of another high ranking demon- and the chain continued for some time until it reached the Throne. Vaylian, however, had no children and most likely never would- his place on the long chain of demon rank was to remain at its very bottom and serve as a demon of contracts and possession.

""Vaylian- I see you found a mirror. I take it that the contract went well.""

The blue demons tail flicked from side to side as he spoke,

""Yes, it has been sent your way for approval. The client has allowed me to step on to this plane.""

""Oh-ho. That makes it a great deal easier for us, then.""

""I suppose it does.""

""Well then- I'll touch base with you once its approved.""

""Yes my liege.""

""Very well then- ah, Vaylian, if you have any questions on the matter- you should contact Ashirom. I've placed him in charge of supervising your progress on the surface.""

He was surprised by this news, the blue demon pressed his face closer to the glass, but did not venture on asking. His master cleared his throat here and continued,

""It should be your top priority at this point to possess something and keep out of sight. The Veil has been broken and you'll be visible to the humans now. You must possess quickly or the feathered ones will find you.""

Gravely, he nodded, and bid his master farewell. The mirror fogged over for a moment and cleared to reveal only Vaylians reflection. He unhooked his claws from the wall and dropped to the floor. It had almost completely slipped his mind that he was vulnerable in his true form while on the surface. He turned and looked at the human, but saw that she was preoccupied with something. <span class=""bb-i"">How curious</span>, he thought as he tilted his head to observe her, <span class=""bb-i"">it busies itself with something already.</span>

""What is it that you are doing?""

The pure pigments of the paint smelled intense and synthetic- he liked how they burned his nostrils. The demon ventured forward and noted that she had been dabbing at them with a brush only then to mark away on some pulled parchment. At first he mistook the canvas as some sort of animal skin- for down in hell the dilettante there work on such material- but saw that it was quite unlike it.</div>"

""There is a time in an artists life, when something phenomenal happens to them, and they are too infatuated with life to capture the phenomenal moment. As a demon, you are one of the most feared creatures on this Earth, next to lions, tigers, and bears,"" she said. 

She had finished the outline of the demon, and began painting the outline of the flamed mirror. She looked at the mirror, still using it as a refernce, even though the call to hell was no longer visible. 

""I decided to do an artistic work on you doing your chat with whomever it was you were speaking to. I shall call this piece, ""The Devil's Deal"". So, you need to possess someone eh?"" she asked.</div>"

Frantic from a human. She was much more serene than the humans he encountered in the underworld. Then again they were always headed toward their Sentence and here this human was given a gift. Vaylian rolled his neck before he rubbed the end of one of his pointed ears,

""Mmm.. Yes."" He said, seemingly disinterested. ""If I'm to remain undetected, then I need a vessel."" He picked at something between his teeth with a claw as he continued,

""Know of anyone you don't particularly care for?""

He grinned at this suggestion- curious as to if she was willing to giving up anyone close to her.</div>"

She tried to think over of someone she knew of, but not someone she knew personally. She always wanted to talk to her hot neighbor, but never got the chance to chat him up. She looked u at the demon, supposing that she did even know his name. 
""I am Jessilyn by the way. You can call me Jess for short,"" she said. She rinsed her brush and started working on a new color. 

""My neighbor that lived below me is a pretty boy,"" she suggested to him.</div>"

He didn't understand the phrase ""pretty boy"" but he knew attraction when he saw it. The blue demon bore his teeth in a grin at her,

""Jessilyn.. You desire this neighbor.... Carnally?"" Before she could answer, however, he slunk over to the door and looked back at her from it,

""Where does this neighbor live?""</div>"

""He lives downstairs below me. I must admit that he is hot, but I never really got to talk to him too much.  The neighbor across the hall is someone I know very well. He is a nice guy,"" she said.

Everybody's life is hard. Yet, these experiences, as tragic as they may or may not be, helped mold her into the rabid little creature she is today. Ironically, she was often referred to as charged and ready to explode at any moment, though this irony is only in hindsight. Let's start at the beginning.<br/><br/>2361A.F, a baby girl was born to the coupling of a man from old world, Russian descent, and a mixed race wife. They named her Alexandria Svet-Yulia, the combined last names of both of her parents, though Yulia translates into ""Young"", her mother's last name. Matvei Svet-Mikah, her father, finally settled down with his wife Grace Young, where he would lead the dangerous life of a scavenger. Where best to do this? The bustling, crowded, Russel City, where any man could make a life for himself. He spent long weeks in the wastes, fighting innumerable dangers so that his wife and child could have a life, relatively free from the dangers of the desert. Though there were many times where Grace fought off those less fortunate, rather savagely and desperately. The kind of parents that would do anything to protect the only ray of hope for them, Alexandria.<br/><br/>It was a quiet evening, six years later, when night was just beginning to fall, casting it's shadowed blanket across the lands, when Matvei returned home after a long and prosperous week of scavenging. Imagine the look beneath his covered face, behind his protected eyes, when he stumbled upon a trap door half buried in some sandy ruins, a treasure trove of old world junk. He was an adapt haggler, and would be able to turn a mighty profit so that his wife and child could have the necessary things in life, and more. It was a relatively simple plan, loot the ruins, try not to die, make money; happy wife happy life. And Oh! How he longed to see his baby girl's face, unblemished by the scorching sands of Dust, unmarred by the howling winds. Matvei nearly dropped dead in the doorway.<br/><br/>The large apartment was turned upside down. Both bedroom's ransacked, the furniture smashed. Even kitchen, as expected, had been looted for everything that could be carried, even the handful of baby toys Matvei had acquired. He stumbled through the wreckage of the living area, shreds of clothing littering broken furniture. He recognized it, a nice dress he had bought for his wife. She must have been waiting for him, he did say he would return on this day. He shook his head, half in horror, half in disbelief. She would have heard the knock, only to run to the door and throw it open in expected delight of her husband. He knelt down, picking up a long shred of cloth, covered with blood. He did not think, he did not feel, the only thing the coursed through his veins was electrifying vengeance.<br/><br/>He had already expected this, but the sorrow still pierced through his heart. In the far corner of the living room was the playpen he had constructed for his six year old daughter. The pen was empty, but Matvei's heart turned even darker. There was no blood on the playpen, but there was a trail of it leading towards the bathroom facilities. He was half tempted to turn and walk out, his wife did not deserve this, he felt he would shame her spirit by going any further. He should just leave, he already knew, she wouldn't want him to see her decomposing. But he had to know. He had to be sure.<br/><br/>Her broken body lay upon the tile which was smeared with an expanding pool of blood. She was undressed, multiple lacerations covering her body. It was obvious what had been done to her previous, before whomever did this slit her throat and left her to die, covered in a ragged scarlet dress of her own blood. He wept softly, a man as hard as he, but he could not restraint himself. Everything had been taken from him in an instant, he should have come home a day earlier. He should have barred the doors, should have warned Grace about the dangers of society. He should of done this, should of done that, but his eye caught something as he turned away from the shameful scene of his wife's body. A small slip of blood covered paper. <br/><br/>A receipt. Rage once again boiled inside of him. He looked at his wife's body in shock. He rolled her over violently, turning her broken neck, looking for- There, he found it. Two small holes on the neck, the marks of a drug addict. The receipt had a name on it, belonging to a very unfortunate person.<br/><br/>It was months later when Max McClaire awoke in a dark room he did not recognize. The winds howled outside, and old world junk was piled in nearly every corner of the room. He moved to stand, and his breath caught, he was tied to the chair. Suddenly the blinding light in his face was very evident, the throbbing from his skull, and the large imposing shadow standing before him. That's right, he had been at a meeting, a deal about to happen. Somebody wanted a supply of his stock, which was expected, his new drug was all the rage; benefits of being a homemade chemist. The man stepped forward, he could have easily been over six foot tall. ""Where is my daughter?"" He asked.<br/><br/>The screams were but a complimentary shriek to the howling winds.<br/><br/>Six more years pass, and we come back to Alexandria. A young child still, about to reach her early teens. The night her mother was molested and killed had replayed in her mind, haunting images plagued her dreams, for the past six years. She had been drugged and hauled across the desert wastes to an unfamiliar place. For days the terrain rolled by, endless expanses of shimmering flat earth, of sandy drifts and dunes, of hard rocky terrain littered with boulders. They walked the whole way there, her captors large and imposing, she has still been but a toddler, and they walked her until her shoeless feet bled and she could walk no more. Sometimes they would carry her, slung over their shoulder and held by her ankles, like freshly killed game. Other times she was dragged until she got up, and walked again. <br/><br/>She wasn't taken to any city of Dust, though she did not know that at the time, but rather a camp. A camp full of dirty, vicious people. There were others like her there, most of them were older, but they helped her. Guided her so that she would feel the lash of their whips less often, so that she wouldn't be thrown down and beaten in the dirt like an animal. Taught to keep her head low and her eyes down so she would be picked less often for their lustful urges, which often came with a beating or a lashing anyways. Though they were careful not to permanently scar her flesh, but for reasons unbeknownst to her.<br/><br/>She became used to pain there, as she grew up at the hands of her masters. Sometimes they went out and would bring her new friends to play with, to teach as she had been taught. She would see her misery reflected in their eyes, her pain echoed in their wails of agony. Their shame, after being hauled off to one of the barracks. Bad slaves were kept outside in a pen, with just enough water to fight over to stave off dehydration. Good slaves were assigned as personal servants, under the protection of their master, to follow their will above all. Alexandria was a good slave, he had been in service for a year now, to a woman named Sula, whose tastes fell more along the feminine side of the coin.<br/><br/>Four more years pass. Alexandria is sixteen now, and she is one of the very best slaves. Her masters are proud of her, she learns very quickly, she is humble and reclusive. Her masters hardly even notice her presence when she's around, replacing empty platters of food or refilling drink, as quickly and silently as an apparition. She hasn't been punished in months, and her master are so very proud of her. She no longer cries when they pick her to end a night of drunken stupor with that of lust. She no longer fights, no longer resists, no longer has any will, for they are masters of their trade. She is almost ready to sell now, Greya spoke to her, often times in the bed, of how much she will miss her little Alexia. Alexandria is a good slave, and told her master how much she will miss her, her beauty, her wisdom, and other pleasantries. Her master would smile, sometimes she would be gentle, but Greya was a rough and callous person, and it often showed on Alexandria's body; bruises, superficial cuts, burns that would later be applied a poultice to keep from scarring. But Alexandria was a good slave, and she enjoyed what her master enjoyed.<br/><br/>It was merely days before the auction, Alexandria was laying breathless with her Master. She had been a good slave, she had pleased her Master well, and was to receive a gift later, something to remember her Master by. Soon she was dressed and following as Greya's shadow. The envy of other slaves male and female, the pride of her masters. She was passed around for service to many others who would miss her, but there was much talk of how much profit they could bring in. No matter how much they fancied her servitude, her company, or her body, they were still going to sell her to another Master, she would have to leave the only home she had ever known, or could remember. She was scared, but Greya comforted her, because her little Alexia was such a good, well behaved slave.<br/><br/>The night before the auction Greya summoned Alexandria. She was so pleased with her little Alexia, told her what a good slave she was, and even though her Alexia had come down with a cold, she hid the fact well, and Greya was so very proud of her good little slave. She held a bauble out in her hand, a small globe set upon an old and rusted base. Greya shook it and little snowflakes danced around a tiny figurine of a female woman, who appeared to be wearing odd shoes with blades beneath. Greya told her this was a snowglobe, and the figure in the middle was an ice skater. Alexandria tried to refuse modestly, slaves were not allowed to have possessions other than what they were given to wear. Greya gave her the look the meant she was about to be struck out of anger, and Alexandria did not want that. She was a good slave after all.<br/><br/>The bauble was heavy in her hands, and she shook it with delight. A smile crept across her face, showing her real joy. It was a beautiful trinket, and her delight made Greya smile. Greya moved close, pulling Alexandria close to her body, when an alarm was raised. Greya cursed and order Alexandria to stay put, that she would be back in a moment to see that smile again. Alexandria was a good slave, but a clever one too. She leaned out of the tent to see a brawl happening in the streets. A large man was striding through the streets, covered head to toe in a thick iron armor, welded together. He held a massive sword and was cutting a swathe through her Masters as bullets ricocheted off his armor. A gathering of men were following behind him, shining stars reflecting off of the breast of their shirts.<br/><br/>The battle raged on, tents burst into flames and people on both sides were dying left and right. Slaves cowered in the pens as stray bullets whizzed past them, some of them injured, some of them killed instantly. The large iron man in the midst of the battle finally caught sight of her. He strode towards her, his massive sword cutting through her masters. It was then that Greya appeared before him, only to be struck down by the flat of his blade. Alexandria's throat caught, Greya was about to be killed, her master was about to die.<br/><br/>A mantra repeated itself in her head, as the snowglobe fell from her hands; ""I'm a good slave. A good slave. A good slave. A good girl. I'm a good girl. Good girl... Good girl...I'm a..""<br/><br/>The man paused as she ran towards him, her bare feet moving across the dirt with speed. Slaves were not allowed to run unless ordered. ""But I'm a good slave."" Slaves were not allowed to disobey their masters. ""But I'm a good slave."" Slaves were not allowed to pick up a weapon. ""But I'm a good slave."" And most importantly, slaves were never permitted to kill. ""But I'm a good slave.""<br/><br/>Blood streamed from beneath the man's massive helmet, a sparse column of smoke drifting from the eye hold where Alexandria had pressed the barrel of a gun. His arms were halfway around her, about to crush the life from her body, but the bullet impact in his brain as seized his body, so that he could not squeeze the life from her. ""I'm a good slave,"" she repeated, as the man fell to the ground. The battle ended soon after, with Alexandria protecting Greya's unconscious body.<br/><br/>But Greya's little Alexia was such a bad slave. Upon discovery of the bauble, and a retelling of the acts Alexandria had committed, Greya's rage was near infinite. The last of the whip brought Alexandria to tears, as it ripped through her pale flesh. They had bound her naked to the whipping post. They could not sell such a bad slave as her. The whip cracked across her body again, splattering Alexia's blood on the hard packed earth. She wept and screamed as Greya cracked the whip over again, and again. Greya would have to buy her now, nobody would want to buy such a bad slave. The whip cracked, blood spraying from her back in a fine mist. Alexandria fell to the ground, every lash a searing cut with the hottest of blades, as if the very sun itself were cutting into her body.<br/><br/>Another crack, and another. Alexandria's vision wavered, but they had given her some form of herb, to give her energy, to keep her from falling unconscious. They wanted to to feel every lash, so she would know what a bad slave she was. Another lash, but Alexandria was already hoarse from screaming, nothing but a ragged whisper coming out. There was a pause, some water so that she could scream once more, more of the herb. But she could receive no more lashes, there was nowhere unmarred on her back to whip anymore. Instead of risking killing her Greya approached her holding something in her hand. She cut Alexandria's bonds, throwing her into the dirt, the hot earth pressing into her wounds, causing more screams and more tears. Greya pressed her boot against Alexandria's stomach, pressing down until she was sure she would break.<br/><br/>""I wouldn't want my little worm to wiggle away,"" Greya sneered, taking the odd metal baton she had been holding and pressing it into Alexandria's chest, right in the center between the upper portion of her breasts, the center of her collarbone.<br/><br/>Whatever this was had been new, fire spread throughout Alexandria's body, causing her to involuntarily seize up and spasm. Her screams caught in her throat, coming out only as a weak gurgle. Greya paused, but the burning sensation still remained in her body, causing her to twitch and spasm in pain. She pressed the rod again to the same area, Alexandria's flesh smoking from the point of impact. Again she body tensed up, the fire coursing across her flesh, her weak gurgling, the spasms, the pain.<br/><br/>And then it had stopped. The pain was no longer there, but Greya was still pressing the rod against her smoldering flesh. Greya looked slightly confused as Alexandria's body relaxed. She adjusted a dial on the rod and the tip of it glowed brightly, attempting to increase the intensity. A new pain erupted from Alexandria's chest, the rod was burning through her flesh, and that she did feel. A tingling sensation ran across her body, and white hot lightning erupted from her hands. The impact sent Greya sprawling a few yards away, her body twitching. Alexandria stood weakly, the sun burning her naked flesh, her wounds throbbing. But she felt alive, for the first time she felt capable. The life returned to her soul, and rage filled her eyes.<br/><br/>A day later the camp was found, though it was more of a smoldering ruin by now, burned to the ground. No a soul remained alive, and it was reported there were no survivors. Except for the small teen stumbling across the wastes, heading nowhere in particular, with plenty of supplies, and proper attire.</div></div><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Weapons:</font></span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">9mm Pistol</span></font>: Alexandria has come across a number of weapons in her travels, her <a href=""http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81z4YkEa4uL._SL1500_.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">9mm pistol</a> is the only one she ever kept, and keeps on her.</li><li><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">Twin Tactical Daggers</span></font>: Alexandria carries <a href=""http://cdn1.bigcommerce.com/server4100/dd172/products/2796/images/10872/Twin_Tactical_Blade_Double_Edge_Nylon_Sheath__35120.1409519131.1000.675.jpg?c=2"" rel=""nofollow"">two twin daggers</a>, with 17 inch blades, and 7 in handles.

Their host resides within the armor, typically in the fetal position as they do not control their armored state through direct physical movement. Rather, the spark intercepts the neural commands for movement, and manipulates the armor that way. The spark or the host may be in control, but not both. If a spark is only partially awakened, the host will be stuck in whatever partial state they enter, until they are able to fully awaken. Only then may they revert back to their normal self at will. Additionally, heavy damage to the armor will cause it to break and fall off, reverting back to the normal state of the host.</li><li><font color=""#ed1c24"">Voice of the Spark:</font> Once awakened, the host and the spark may converse mentally. The Spark can share its knowledge, though since the phenomena is not innate to the spark itself, it can only give ideas and tips for power useage; The spark cannot teach its host mastery over their abilities. The spark can retain memories gathered from their host, recalling things they forget, or even noticing things the host themselves failed to, but only through the host's eyes. Many sparks may know each other, and may recognize other awakened forms. The awakened armor is unique to the spark, which is how sparks may recognize each other, even if the differences between two armor sets are very subtle.</li></ul><br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#6ecff6"">Additional Abilities:</font></span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""deepskyblue""><span class=""bb-b"">Heavy Draw</span></font>: Aeshma can detect and draw electricity to himself.

He normally maintains a trimmed jawline, meaning he's usually sporting a 5 o'clock shadow. His eyes have an air of sharpness about them, being the pale ice blue that they are, yet a rugged, tired feel too, the experiences of the years wearing on him. A sturdy jawline and the fact that he almost never smiles help with his intimidating demeanor.<br/><br/>His life of constant travel also bred constant exercise, to the point where Jon is not just toned, but muscular. He's built like a small, dense tree, the years of conditioning evident on every inch of his body. His muscles aren't huge, nor is he the strongest, but he is compacted and tightly wound, providing an ample range of power and speed.

He was the child of two brilliant parents, both esteemed gunsmiths and firearms researchers. Though he was much too young to remember them, or their passing, he does have a Polaroid picture of them. Growing up he had always been told stories of what wonderful people Anna and Michael Diederich, his parents, had been. Stories that had both saddened him, and filled him with a childish sense of pride. His stepparents had taken him in without hesitation, being close friends of his then deceased parents.<br/><br/>Philip and Joanna Morris were both automotive scientists, and are single-handedly responsible for many of the contraptions rolling through Dust. Philip was older than Jonathan's father Michael, He and his wife past the age of baring children and heading quickly into old age. A monumental mark that not everybody achieves these days, but far more likely with scientists who never leave safety. Philip is practically an elder, high into his fifties and continually growing a fierce white mane of a beard. His wide, wrinkled eyes spend their days pouring over manufacturing schematics and theoretical designs, his true talent lying in the restoration of older vehicles.<br/><br/>His wife on the other hand, is more of a designer. She takes the good ideas and creates suitable field applications, like mounted weaponry, ammunition feed systems, and everything ranging from tire treading to bumper curve. She too holds the heavy marks of old age, but with auburn gold hair that still holds some of the luster of her youthful days, the roots just now turning white into her mid fifties.<br/><br/>And then there's their son, eleven years Jonathan's younger. The day Jon left to join the Wings, Grayson had decided in his young age that he would build the guns that Jon would use to make bad guys go away. This was ten years ago, and technically Grayson hadn't been a liar, even at the young age of six. His parents always knew he would be brilliant, unlike Jon who was more fascinated with guns and how they killed people. Grayson began his studies and his aptitude proved more than the complex tests could handle. He soared through each course and assignment given to him by Dresden's teachers, so quickly that his parents began devising their own curriculum.<br/><br/>As soon as he was able Grayson joined his parents in the field of automotive science, focusing his intellect onto practical weaponry, working more with his mother than his father. It was Grayson who, in his off-time, designed the modified assault rifle that Jonathan and his squad use today. Also proving himself the prodigal child, he invented and explosive putty based off of old world composition-C, completely malleable, but firm, and requiring a spark to ignite. This item is also exclusive to Jonathan and his squad, but Motum Diversum has the schematics for both the putty and the gun.<br/><br/>Leaving behind his boring life of tests and assignments, Jonathan fulfilled his dream of becoming a Wing. Most of his life was spent with studies he had no interest, and no passive skill for, and being bullied by the “braniacs”, or the smart children. Compared to them he was as dumb as a rock, but with the Winged Guardians he felt right at home, and he was rightly accepted into the ranks. As with every new blood, he did experience his fair share of hazing, pranks, and other minor difficulties. He had no trouble adapting, and was the only cadet in his year willing to return anything he was given. This lead him to garner a lot of unwanted attention, and trouble, and the label of being rebellious.<br/><br/>This was quickly pounded out of him with the help of a mean spirited drill instructor. For the first time since leaving home, Jon felt homesick. But he persisted. He ran laps until he could no longer run, and then ran more for being a show off. He tried to do more physical exercise than the others, and was punished with more. He spent the first month confused, as his desire to excel was met with endless punishment. It wasn't until the end of the second month that he learned the meaning of unity, of comradery. A unit was only as strong as the weakest link, and by trying to be the strongest link he was also the weakest. This was when he also learned the meaning of endurance, compared to just raw will. <br/><br/>Months three and four were spent training as commanded. He spent his free time with the others, though his stepparents had always taught him to follow rules, the other cadets taught him how to break rules. Smuggling booze, drugs, and cigarettes became an art for some, but Jon never dirtied his hand with such trafficking. He did partake from time to time, his curiosity overcoming his will. Leave was spent going into whatever town was nearby and looking for women, though genital horror stories kept Jon away from the prostitutes and brothels. He did find women, and they did take their close off for him, and sometimes for him and a couple of his buddies. It didn't take long for that childhood shyness clinging to Jonathan's personality to be shed, group sex will do that to a person. He also became stronger, forged in fire and molded into steel. He may not be a genius, but he could be the bulwark that stood before his stepbrother, shielding him from the larger horrors of the world.<br/><br/>Long after his friends had left, joining their respective groups and receiving their assignments, Jon stayed in training. He had no desire to be a grunt, patrolling city slums, gathering intelligence, or standing around in a watchtower. No, he wanted to be the guy that was called to raid drug cartels, the kind of action hero characterized by children's fantasies. He spent time learning to use a long range, precision rifle. He never reached the top of any shooting classes, but he far exceeded the accepted standard. He also took courses in explosives use, gaining proficient use of many different devices and contraptions.<br/><br/>The second year wore on, albeit it was still early. Jon was being pushed to join a regiment. Nobody wanted to fulfill his expressed desire to better equip himself with a broader knowledge of hand-to-hand combat, except for one. Drill Sergeant Thanos said he would take Jon under his wing, for the remainder of the year. Jon eagerly accepted and his superiors begrudgingly accepted, Thanos was a well respected man of the institution and Jon had captured his interest. Jon's happiness at the opportunity was constantly second guessed by himself, as he spent the first few months doing a regimen of physical exercise instead of actually learning close quarters combat. Sergeant Thanos simply explained that raw power was not enough to be an apt fighter, and that Jon would have to hone himself to a peak of perfection before he would be ready to begin learning.<br/><br/>Late a night, a winded and sore Jonathan would think on the prospective benefits of his apprenticeship under Sergeant Thanos. His conditioning included running until he couldn't breathe, immediately followed by a routine of straining physical exercise before he could snag a chance to catch his breath. If he was not quick enough with his exercises he would have to start over. It was nearly a month before Jon even got to the third item on Sergeant Thanos' list, by this time others had become intrigued with the two of them to the point that the mass interest reached the board of directors overseeing military basic training and drill; commissioned by the Executive of Security.<br/><br/>Thanos was instated as special course drill instructor, who then employed Jon as his model of comparison for weeding out all of the initiates. Jon was not the fastest, or the strongest by far, but he did excel in pure endurance. The first test was the run, and only the top twenty who did not quit would proceed. This was also done at a full sprint. Many of the others quickly passed Jon, but it was only a matter of minutes before he passed their wheezing bodies.<br/><br/>The twenty that passed joined Jon in his daily routine. Now, nobody could move on until everybody could together. Additionally Jon's usual four hours of sleep was extended to five, so that they could all have time to “shoot the shit” as their Drill Sergeant stated. His methods did not attempt to breed cold, emotionless warriors, but a well oiled machine that was self sustaining.<br/><br/>Finally, a month and a half before the year was up Jon and his squad succeeded in passing The Run, The Exercise, and a timed gauntlet of obstacles, all done rapid fire one after another. <br/><br/>One day, as Jon finished his lap over walls, through tires, through mud, ropes, and multitudes of other obstacles that he and his team had constructed by hand, thinking about how quickly he could do his laundry, Sergeant Thanos announced that his “baby carrots had grown into the long, hard dicks of men.” That's when Jon finally got the final piece to his warrior's puzzle, hand to hand combat. It was the hardest thing he had done yet. Having his ass handed to him day in, and day out, sleeping for only a couple of hours a night before doing it again. The worst part is the Sergeant never seemed to tired, never seemed to waiver, and never seemed to receive a hit.<br/><br/>Most of the practice was done on each other, sparring rituals, and simulated combat. It was hardly simulated, as Jon and his brethren went full out on each other. Pains and aches did not stop Jon from trying to hardest, and getting flipped on his back every time by Sergeant Thanos. But, slowly, Jon and the others found themselves able to block a few more times, able to last a little longer sparring against “Master Thanos” as they began fondly calling him-- Never to his face.<br/><br/>By the end of the year they had become experts on the craft, though never able to best Sergeant Thanos, they did receive his praise. Most of all Jonathan, this being the only thing he had ever masted. He finally felt fulfilled, like he was worthy of life. He was no genius, but his was an expert combatant in close quarters. It was around this honorary graduation that his brother was deemed to smart to attend regular school. Jon would be 19 now, making his step brother 8. Still, this didn't dampen his spirits, he didn't have to be a genius baby, he was the protector, the sword and the shield.<br/><br/>Jon found himself slightly saddened as his comrades in arms went their separate ways, there was no official squads or regiments to join for the completion of Sergeant Thanos' Drill. And, despite everything Jon had put himself through, he was still assigned a paltry position as a Winged Guardian stationed in Russel City. <br/><br/>He endured on however, refusing to fall to corruption and greed. He was made to endure, and he wouldn't mar the image of the warrior Sergeant Thanos had molded him into being. He stayed away from the more illicit activities of the Guardians, doing his rounds dutifully, and with purpose. He upheld the law as fairly and justly as he could, even when left up to interpretation. He even found his fair share of lovers, but he could never see himself settling down with nice, normal folk. It was mostly wild flings in the night, and hot love affairs. Perhaps the worst thing he did was smoke cigarettes, drink a little, and balance multiple lovers. What's the worst that could happen anyways? A warrior's greatest honor was death in battle, he was destined to die.<br/><br/>He had nothing to fear.<br/><br/>His life dragged on this way, day in, day out, purpose and routine. Eventually he became comfortable with it, though most days he spent his patrol jogging. His nights were filled with exercise and his one enjoyable habit, smoking. He slept only a little bit each night, some days choosing to start his duties early and end them late. It wasn't long until his actions were noticed by those higher up than he, and become a model of excellence for those who cared. Most higher ranking officers didn't much care for high moral codes of justice and honor, too involved with extortion and tyrannical power. But some did notice, and Jon ascended the ranks until he found himself a sergeant, and captain of his own platoon. His own platoon of liars, thieves, and officially sanctioned thugs.<br/><br/>The state of affairs was disappointing, and Sergeant Diederich tried to instill some honor and fear into his men. They requested transfers and were quickly accepted elsewhere, wherever it was that corruption festered. He tried his hand with newer recruits, but it wasn't long until they learned the ways of the others. The darker, fun side of the Wings. News of this reached the ears of the Executive of Security, who was often far too busy to actually meet personally with his underlings.<br/><br/>Jon received a warning letter, about his poor performance with his new position. He responded back by attempting to explain himself, explain the state of affairs within the city. The Security Executive declared Jon's accusations ludicrous, that the city was in fine hands and Jon was the only problem. He obviously didn't know, somewhere up the ladder the news was filtered before it could reach the ears of the appropriated executive.<br/><br/>Jon fell back into complacency. His squad did what they want, only being reprimanded for breaching orders and enforced protocol. Jon went back to his routine of running and exercising, losing his wandering mind in the repetitive nature of it all. He didn't although himself to think much, because he was prone to thinking dangerous thoughts. Treasonous even.</div></div><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><a href=""http://oyster.ignimgs.com/mediawiki/apis.ign.com/battlefield-3/thumb/3/34/Scarh.png/468px-Scarh.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Modified Scar-H</a>: No longer your average assault rifle, Jonathan's gun is one of the holy preachers of death.

Ulver is a fairly normal looking man, aside from his near bleach blonde hair tips, scars and brightly colored eyes. His facial appearance is that of someone who is coming to the very end of their youthful looks, and beginning to graze the start of aging. Wrinkles are slightly making themselves apparent, and the dark bags under his eyes tell of  man who gets little sleep in his line of work. His body is fairly ridden with scars and cuts from fights from the far past and the day before. His body is muscular, but not ripped, just well built for what you’d expect from a mercenary.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Born to two Forsaken tribals, Ulver was the second son of the pair of Forsaken Peons. His parents, Richter and Layla were 2nd generation Forsaken Tribals, making Ulver and Jimis 3rd generation Forsaken, destined to be the first of the line to be warriors.  From a very young age, they were trained to be loyal warriors to the Forsaken Order. They were trained first to have complete apathy to killing and death, something Ulver had trouble mastering, but something Jimis, 10 years Ulver’s senior, had perfected. Jimis was already well trained and destined to wage warfare by the time Ulver turned 7, but instead stayed behind to work with Ulver in his training, so they could be in the military together. 

Ulver had trouble in the training, disliking the brutality of the officers and complete disregard for human life. Ulver simply wanted to be a child, and have fun, spend time with his parents, and enjoy wildlife instead of to kill it. These feelings weren’t well harbored, with Ulver being beat often for thinking anything other than to kill and to eat. His parents simply allowed it to happen, hoping Ulver’s feelings of mercy would soon pass with age and maturity. Jimis was much harder on Ulver than any adult in his life was, training him day in and day out, trying to teach him the proper ways of Forsaken Warrior, sometimes even beating the lessons into him. Even with all the violence, Jimis made it obvious that he did it out of his love for his younger brother, only wanting to see Ulver succeed and become a Forsaken hero.

Time passed, and Ulver became more used to being a soldier, and Jimis had already gone off to fight a few minor battles against irritants of the Forsaken. Being two fairly successful warriors of the Forsaken, the Rackis family began to rise a bit more in prestige among the Forsaken, gaining better jobs and pay. Even if he was sad to have to suppress his true feelings, Ulver felt the reward granted his parents was worth it. He was 17 now, and ready to head into his first battle in the name of the Forsaken Order.

The battle that followed was one of the most nightmarish memories of Ulver’s young life. A group of angry marauders had began to hassle some older villagers. When Ulver and his group arrived to ward them off, they immediately attacked the soldiers and the village, shooting man, woman and child alike. The reaction by the Forsaken was swift and deadly, killing most of the marauders, and capturing a few to make an example of. The prisoners were sat in a circle in the center of town, with the the weakest one sat a distance away, forced to watch. One by one, the Forsaken killed the prisoners in varied and sadistic ways, some by dismemberment, the quickest and least painful of the many punishments, others by live immolation. Some were drawn and quartered by horse and man alike. Soon enough,after they were all dead, they released the weakest prisoner, naked and weaponless into the wilderness to pass on the story of Forsaken destruction.

By the end of the confrontation, Ulver had killed 3 men, 2 of which was forced to kill, and watched as they suffered in their last moments. It left deep marks on Ulver’s still young mind, and left him in a state of shock all the way home. Jimis, whom had racked up the 2nd most kills of the group was given great praise, almost the polar opposite of Ulver, who was bullied and criticized for his hesitation. Jimis tried to comfort Ulver, but it was of no use, Ulver was a lost child.

After that battle, and a quick overturn of the throne, Jimis was quickly offered a position in a new Soulless squadron being formed exclusively to answer to the King’s whims anywhere in the Order’s territories, under strange conditions. Jimis was ecstatic, and when he was encouraged by his equally excited parents, he quickly went off the capitol to negotiate the terms of his entrance to the Soulless. Ulver, while happy for his brother, was still having a difficult time coping with the death he caused. It bothered him for many weeks to come, even making him physically sick at times. If he wasn’t off on military missions, he was sulking in his room, or wandering the wastes outside his village. 

After a few weeks, late one night, Jimis returned home, escorted by a squad of Soulless. Ulver and his parents were brought out of their home, greeted by a rather cheerful group of soldiers, and an equally happy Jimis. The one who appeared to be the leader of the squad stepped forward, his arm on Jimis’ shoulders.

“We have some happy news! We have agreed to accept Jimis into the Soulless!”

Ulver’s parents were obviously very happy. 

“What are these conditions?” His mother asked eagerly.

“Well, show them, Jimis.” The leader said, turning and smiling to the young man.

Jimis gave a happy nod, taking a step forward towards his father. Jimis’ hand quickly found the rear of his waist, and pulled something that glinted in the moonlight, before sinking into his father’s gut. The man pitched forward, grunting in pain, blood beginning to flow to his mouth. Jimis had stabbed his father, and pulled out the blade, and moved swiftly to his mother, grabbing her by her hair before quickly and cruelly kicking her to her knees, and making one quick slice of his throat. She fell to the ground, choking next to their father, who was in tremendous pain, blood slowly trickling from his mouth. Jimis kneed down to his father, and brought his blade down on his head, a sickening crunch filling the air as he made the killing blow. His mother followed suit, dying very quickly, before Jimis turned his eyes to Ulver, who was stood still in a mixture of shock, fear, rage, and sadness. Before Ulver could react, Jimis made a swift blow to Ulver’s face, knocking him out cold instantly.

The next time Ulver woke up, he was a naked, young adult stuck in the middle of the desert with no clothes or weapons to him name. They had killed his parents and left him to die. Odd how they didn’t just murder him, too. But such was life in the Forsaken Order. Even if he tried to tell people, nothing could or would be done.

He got up and walked. He walked until he found a quaint little town. An old bounty hunter had finally passed away after dying of long life, a spectacle the town had gathered to see. No one claimed the old man’s belongings, seeing as a naked young man had just limped his way into town, and probably needed it more than anyone did. He got a nice shotgun, a duster and some nice boots. These gave for a nice start to Ulver’s new life, a life outside the insanity of the Forsaken Order. He knew no one, and no one knew him.

He started with odd jobs, before picking up a few bounties, which thus confronted him with the same thing he had had an issue with mere months before. It turned into a thrill. He found that he had finally disconnected himself from empathy, and was ready to kill anything and anyone that had money on their head. It was a sick game for him. A game that was fun enough to play that the money was merely a bonus. The birth of a new man. A man on a mission of revenge, no matter how long the grudge is held, no matter how needless the violence. Ulver was going to hunt his brother down, and kill him. He swore it.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Armor:</span> (Refer to top picture.) Ulver wears a chest piece made of a fairly even mixture of leather and metal as to keep a manageable weight, metal protecting vital areas. Some kevlar is also in the mix, mostly in the arms with leather sleeves and kevlar at the shoulder, elbows, and patches around the forearm. His helmet almost entirely metal, with some padding at the bottom entry hole and on the inside facial areas to keep the helmet from being incredibly uncomfortable. The vent at the mouth area tends to keep the helmet cool and ventilated, but the helmet is still prone to overheating in extremely sunny conditions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Jackson Cooper
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 27
<span class=""bb-b"">Appeared Age:</span> Same as actual 
<span class=""bb-b"">Height:</span> 6'0
<span class=""bb-b"">Weight:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Eye Color:</span> Grey
<span class=""bb-b"">Hair Color:</span> Dark Brown
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Disabilities:</span> A slight limp in his right leg due to a small fracture caused during hand-to-hand combat. This minorly affects his manoeuvrability.
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Identifiers:</span> Scar tissue around both wrists. The result of gnawing himself free from shackles.
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Jackson has unkempt, short brown hair -often obscured by a cap - and stubble that he keeps closely shaven. At one point he would have been considered typically handsome, a rough diamond of sorts, but years of harsh and demanding conditions have taken their toll on his looks and lined his face with creases. Being tall, he is relatively intimidating, and while not excessively muscular, he is toned to the point of definition. Around his neck he wears a dog collar. An heirloom that has been around since well before the orb struck Earth.

<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/PG5arjc.png?1""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Residence:</span> A small apartment in Russell City
<span class=""bb-b"">Profession:</span> In theory, Jackson is somewhat a chemist. He sells drugs at cheap prices and - despite being very reclusive - has a reputation for providing what some would refer to as affordable health care. However, his main profit comes from the sale of illegal substances. His most popular being small canisters of inhalable hallucinogens, which he is able to make easily due to his ability.
<span class=""bb-b"">Aligned Faction</span>: Motum Diversum
<span class=""bb-b"">Relatives:</span> Sydney Cooper is Jackson's lover, and perhaps in a world where the Earth hadn't so nearly been destroyed, she may have been his wife. They have a close but casual bond, where one could disappear for weeks on end without a word, only to return and resume their relationship. Sydney often lives with Jackson is his apartment, but is entirely independent, earning her own money etc.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Jackson's mother and father had lived in Aspin when they met - both brilliant scientists who were applauded for their extensive research in biological, medical, and chemical science. After two years they moved into one an up-market residency together and lived a comfortable life for a further year, at which point Sarah - Jackson’s mother - became pregnant with Jackson. Almost nine months later she gave birth to a healthy young boy, and they resumed their routine lives, only this time with an extra member of the family.

As Jackson grew older he was introduced into the world of Chemical and Medical science by his father who he spent most of his days with, and showed real promise in becoming successful in the field. By the age of ten he was conducting his own research into the creation of inhalable chemical enhancement agents, and was hoping to peruse this area of study later on in his education. However, that was when The Sickness struck. Jackson had been warned from an early age of the sickness, and in private his mother had warned him of something far more frightening. The Immortals. He was told that these people were able to control the world around them in various ways and that their power was something to be feared. In fact, she had told him, Immortals were being kept in confinement within Aspin itself while they were observed. Jackson wasn't the first to notice his condition, it was his father, Nicholas. One day in the lab while Jackson was sniffing, coughing and complaining of a headache his father pulled him aside and asked how long he had felt this way. He told his father that it had only come on that day, and in response Nicholas told him to take note of how he was feeling - and strangely enough to not tell his mother.

Days went by and Jackson's condition only deteriorated. Thankfully his mother was working long hours on a major project so it was no trouble keeping it from her. This didn't seem to ease Nicholas' worry, though, and to Jackson’s surprise he became increasingly on edge when the symptoms of illness came to an abrupt end. Having been told of the immortals, but not how they come to be, Jackson was blissfully unaware of the change that had gone on inside of him. It was in the labs a few days after The Sickness had passed that a vial of reacting powders smashed onto a lit Bunsen burner and the nature of this change become evident. The reacting powders went up it a cloud of smoke, and in panic Jackson threw up his hands to ward of the toxic cloud when suddenly it morphed into a uniform sphere. And then, even more bizarrely, it reached out in tendrils and curled around Jackson's body before dropping to the floor and dispersing. 

That night all that could be heard in the Cooper household were the raised voices of his parents as they fought over something that at the time Jacksons did not fully understand. His mother was clearly on the offensive, his father saying far less. He would interrupt for a brief period before Sarah was dominating the argument once more. In his room Jackson sat in silence, picking out parts of the conversation. <span class=""bb-i"">... a danger to us all... what he's capable of... his safety as well as ours...</span> It later become clear that she was in fact talking about him. But at the time all Jackson knew was that his father rushed into the room, hurried a bag of clothes together, and hastily led them out of the front door and into their 4X4.

They drove in darkness without stopping until they reached Motum Diversum, and once there they stayed overnight at an inn. Nicholas rarely spoke, and when he did it was never to explain their situation. That was only explained once he reached the age of 16, and by then most of what had gone on that night had already been made sense of. In Motum Diversum they soon bought a small apartment, and Nicholas set up his own make-shift lab - working as a chemist and selling treatment and legal drugs for reasonable prices. Meanwhile Jackson learnt to control his ability and the two settled into the new life thrust upon them.

Nicholas later informed Jackson of a few things. The first was that the Coopers has not always been a family of scientists. Before the orb landed on Earth they had mostly been a military family, and for years afterwards they had carried on as a tough, militarized family surviving alone in the harsh conditions. Eventually times changed, and while they still lived in a more traditional manner they merged with the civilizations forming around them. When one of their own contracted The Sickness only then to change into an immortal - well before information on these things was widely available - they embraced it and saw it as their duty to protect this person who could manipulate their surroundings.

These ideals were passed on for generations, and even when a branch of the family ventured into gaen territory and settled they were continued. Much of the Cooper family is believed to have died off in various places around The Dust, but the Coopers who learned the ways of science flourished. The existence of the Immortals soon became common knowledge, and it was not long before the Cooper's beliefs were forced underground. Nicholas told Jackson that this was why he had not immediately wanted to turn him over to scientists to be observed, and that leaving Aspin was the only way that his mother would have allowed him to live a free life.

By the age of eighteen Jackson shared the responsibilities that came with the small business run from their apartment. He more than pulled his weight, producing an array of gas products using his abilities, and overall serving as the main producer of <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> drugs while his father handled sales and treatment. It was a system that served them well and saw them earning a decent amount of money. Sadly, as with all good things, it came to an end. At the age of twenty Jackson witnessed his father shot dead after a man who lived in the upper-class area of Russel City stormed their apartment with two other men, claiming that their buisness was suffering due to the 'petty little operation' Jackson and his father were running. They demanded that Nicholas stop the production of his drugs and cease his health care. When Nicholas refused he was shot in the head without hesitation.

All three men were suffocated by a gas released moments later that targeted their mouths in dense limbs of smoke before reaching into their lungs and burning them from the inside out. From that day forward Jackson ran the business single-handedly - occasionally aided by Sydney. He had sent a clear warning to opposing businesses that he would not tolerate any form of threatening behaviour, and as such was never bothered again. However, gradually, not being the man his father was, he lost patience for the high standards of legal drugs and became more and more immersed in the world of illegal substances where regulations were near non-existent and there was more profit to be made.</div></div>

Her parents—Brian Quinn and Sally Quinn—worked as a Winged Guardian and a cook respectively. It didn’t take more than a single glance to see how her father, at least, had fallen for her mother. Sally was, for lack of better word, beautiful. Evelina had inherited both her eyes and her hair, and even her body—only with a bit more than her mother ever had. Men from all corners of her hometown in Parkland had tried to woo her in her teens, but only ever one young man had ever managed to get her attention. <br/><br/>He was neither exceptionally handsome or even very intelligent. He was an average man in all but sincerity, which, according to Sally, had been the reason why she had chosen to marry Brian, as he wanted her, not for her looks, but because of her person. He never made any comments that could be considered lewd, or even hinted at it. More than once had Evelina heard her mother tease her father about how he might stop loving her, if she got a big ugly burn on her face from an accident in the kitchens, at which point he’d fervently deny it, and continuous insisting that he’d never leave her no matter how she looked. That always got both Sally and Evelina to laugh, and had Brian grumbling something about manipulative women. <br/><br/>Her life was a relatively quiet one, and it wasn’t until her early teens that things started to happen. Namely, she started to grow into a woman, and did so far quicker than any other girls she knew. It resulted in bullying and name calling; “cow” being one of the most common names thrown her way. The offers of “comfort” that the boys aimed at her did nothing but pile onto the shame she was starting to feel; shame of her body and how big her chest was becoming. She resorted to isolating herself from any and all contact, with those she once had called friends and acquaintances, and instead buried herself in her own little world where only a select few people were allowed entry; namely her parents and those of their friends who treated her like they would their own nieces. <br/><br/>This went on for a few years until she reached the age of 14, having now already had breasts for 3 years. Now that the other girls her age were starting to grow into an adult body, she attempted social contact once more, albeit with her chest bound tightly by bandages to decrease its size, and make her blend in. It worked to a small degree, with the name calling ceasing entirely. She still didn’t have anyone she’d really call friends, however. <br/><br/>Her life with her parents was much the same it always had been, but her social life had changed dramatically; slowly as it transitioned from being out with friends to staying home or being out alone for periods of time that gradually grew longer. Her parents noticed only after a long period of time, and even then mostly because of how she started hiding her voluptuousness. Only after her father had firmly, but still kindly, pressed her for answers as to , did she finally tell him how she was afraid that the other children would throw more insults at her if she did not hide them.<br/><br/>She didn’t have any friends, she had said, but if she could at least be near them without being reminded of how she was different all the time, then that was enough. Truthfully, Brian Quinn didn’t know what to do. He was a simple man, and what his daughter went through was something he had no experience with. Not only that, but he couldn’t very well punish children he didn’t know who were for making his daughter sad. Sure, he could give a warning to the parents of the children around Evelina’s age that if they didn’t keep their kids in check, the Winged Guardians would pay them a visit, but that would be an abuse of power that he wouldn’t let himself perform. So he tried doing the next best thing: Boost her self confidence by trying to make her feel powerful. <br/><br/>So having decided that he’d try to make her feel confident, and in power, he found himself leading her towards the shooting ranges as a 15 year old for the first time. Here he taught her how to maintain a gun, as well as how to aim and shoot, how to load, and even how other types of guns and rifles worked; the gun which he taught her how to use was an old model, a replica of a P220 from before the Fall. The first day she had missed just about every shot she fired, primarily because of having her eyes closed. While she had been scared of it at first, she learned to enjoy the act of loading, shooting, and loading again when she ran out of rounds.<br/><br/>The years continued and she reached 17 years of age, and it was about time she started thinking about what she wanted to do with her life. She had, according to her mother, a knack for cooking, who also put forth the suggestion that she could join her as a cook. Her father, however, was of the opinion that she should follow her own path. This lead to Evelina pondering herself about what did she want to do herself. <br/><br/>For weeks she thought and mused, yet no ideas came to her. What <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> she want? She was reasonably good at cooking, but that wasn’t anything spectacular, and surely it wasn’t good enough to get her a job as a cook anywhere. She did want to do something like what her father did, but she wasn’t big enough, nor skilled enough with a gun or any martial arts to be a useful Winged Guardian. <br/><br/>So then, what? <br/><br/>The answer came to her one day when her mother fell ill and she had to tend to her while her father was out on patrol in the city. She couldn’t protect others from getting hurt like her father, and she didn’t have much confidence in becoming a cook. Perhaps, she thought, she could help them after they got hurt? It felt right, somehow. Having decided on that she started pouring over every book she could find, borrow, or buy about herbal formulas, how to set a bone, how to clean a wound and how to bind it. She did her best to get her hands on everything to do with healing a broken body, whether it be difficult surgeries still far beyond her level, or even the most basic of basic things about CPR. She, much to her own and her parents’ surprise, got so swallowed up in her studies that she completely forgot about the taunts and bullying she had suffered in her early teens.<br/><br/>A few years passed and she had reached her 19th birthday and was starting to get out a bit more. She also started official studies on medicine and healing. Once around people her own age again she suddenly remembered the painful years of bullying, but it wasn’t like that. Not at all. The degrading comments and insult had been replaced by genuine compliments in most cases. To say that she was shocked would have been an understatement, as compliments from people other than her parents was a complete unknown to her. <br/><br/>She started to open up more and become more open and friendly with others. She started to get friends and started joking. She never even thought about romance; having friends was enough. She continued her studies and emerged a fully fledged medic a few years later, excelling in saving the life of idiots who got themselves hurt, as her teacher had told them once. She felt confident—a little. <br/><br/>She worked as a healer in Parkland for several years, and lived well for it. In a world where currency was nothing but what you could do, or what you could give, being able to save someone from the brink of death was as valuable a commodity as any. Perhaps even the most valuable of all. <br/><br/>She moved out into a small apartment of her own at her 21st birthday she still had plenty of contact with her parents and often visited them for dinner or just for social visits. <br/><br/>Her life was good, she thought, and despite a very small number of friends she felt that she had enough: She even started being proud of her body, rather than ashamed of its proportions. <br/><br/>But all good things must come to an end, and so did her happy life. <br/><br/>It all started during the summer of her 24th year, when a distress call for medical help was issued from out in the wasteland. <br/><br/>Evelina was at her home with the sniffles at that point; sore, slight headache, and a little tired. She wasn’t going to let that stop her, however, and upon hearing that someone was in dire need of help she went out immediately. She packed her bag and went out together with a number of other people. <br/><br/>They drove for at least two hours before they reached the appointed destination, and found what looked to be the scene of an ambush, or a raid. There were two people on the scene, one covered in blood but conscious, and the other still sitting in the truck seemingly unconscious. They went about treating the one covered in blood first, but when they got near him he sat up and drew a gun, pointing it at the first medic who got near him. The one in the car stepped out as well, followed by several others from the back of the truck. They were all from the Forsaken Order, as evident by the crest on their clothing, and demanded that they hand over all of their medical equipment. <br/><br/>Most complied but Evelina did not. Being a healer was her pride and joy, and she didn’t want to simply let them take it away from her. A single punch from their biggest guy, as punishment for disobeying them, was all they needed to take her down. She was unconscious almost before she hit the ground. <br/><br/>She never really figured out what happened while she was blacked out, but she assumed that the Forsaken had taken the other doctors back with them, leaving her to die in the wasteland as she was too small to be of any use in the mines, and they—thankfully—had no interest in a sex slave at this time. <br/><br/>She counted herself lucky that at least her headache and sniffles were gone when she woke up several hours later, when the purple light of the twilight hovered in the horizon. Her luck seemed greater than expected when she saw that a bag of medical supplies had been left in their car. It only contained some basic equipment and spare bandages, as well as a mirror, but it was better than noth—she caught sight of herself in the mirror by chance as she rummaged through the back. The angry spot of purple and yellow on her jaw went completely unnoticed, taking the backseat in favour of her eyes. <br/><br/>She had heard of the Immortals, but never actually seen one. She knew that they always had different eyes from normal humans, and that their eyes could look like virtually anything. So her having slitted, cat-like eyes? It could only mean one thing. It was also then that she became conscious of a different feeling in her mouth, something she had chalked up to simply being residual pain from the punch she had received. It was, however, much more than that. A quick check with the mirror revealed that her canines had grown out to be at least an inch long each, and far longer and sharper than usual. She looked more like a predator with those teeth than a human; like she could tear meat from bones with ease. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I’m an Immortal.</span> <br/><br/>The thought raced through her head so quickly that she didn’t realise the truth of it before it had been repeated a dozen times: She was an Immortal, a kind of people who had survived the Sickness without dying. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">So that’s what it was… I thought it was only a cold.</span><br/><br/>She fell to her knees, tears already falling. She felt numb. Numb to the heat, numb to the tears falling onto her lap. The only thing that registered was that of her canines, now conscious of them. They felt so big and clumsy, like they didn’t belong. It… wasn’t her. She wasn’t that. No. She wasn’t—<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A monster.</span><br/><br/>She drew in a shuddering breath and stood up, took the bag, and went into the car. It sputtered and died almost before she had turned the key completely. The bandits had taken the gas from it, of course. It was with almost lifeless movements that she started walking, the sun battering her relentlessly, yet she didn’t feel hot, but that didn’t register until much later. <br/><br/>She arrived at Parkland the following morning, exhausted. She had barely had anything to drink except for half a bottle of water she found in the bag she had taken, and except for that she’d gotten nothing. She neared the entrance to the city and saw a few Winged Guardians coming to meet her—not many travellers came by foot, after all. <br/><br/>The Guardians stopped her about a hundred metres from the city limits, demanding to know who she was. She looked up and, to her surprise, saw a face she was intimately familiar with. The surprise on her own face was mirrored by her father’s as he looked back at her. <br/><br/>“Your eyes,” he said in a stunned voice, to which she only nodded. <br/><br/>“Do you know her?” The second Guardian asked, lowering his gun ever so slightly. <br/><br/>“Of course I do!” Brian barked at his colleague. “She’s my daughter! Evelina, tell me, what happened? You went out to that distress call and now you get back like this. What happened out there? Where are the others?” <br/><br/>“I don’t know,” she replied in a voice devoid of hope. “The call for help was a fake, and we were ambushed. They left me alone after knocking me unconscious—” she pointed at the mark on her cheeks “—and when I woke up I was alone… Dad, do you remember that cold I’ve complained about for the last week?” She chuckled humourlessly. “It wasn’t a cold. It was the Sickness.” She stopped then, gaze falling to the ground. “I didn’t die from it, but… It’s probably worse than that. I’m an Immortal.”<br/><br/>“Immortal? Shi—” The other Guardian raised his gun and almost pulled the trigger, stopped only by Evelina’s father knocking the gun out of his grasp. “What the hell are you doing, man?! She’s an Immortal! Dangerous as fuck if you hadn’t noticed!” <br/><br/>“She is my <span class=""bb-i"">DAUGHTER!</span>” Brian roared in return, seizing his colleague by the collar. “She’s not some dangerous monster that we have to kill, do you understand, Rookie?!” <br/><br/>The other Guardian was silent for a moment, glancing between Evelina’s slitted gaze and Brian’s furious one. Eventually, he nodded sullenly. “But she still can’t enter the city,” he insisted, massaging his throat with one hand. “Strict orders not to let Immortals get in, even you know that.” <br/><br/>Evelina could see how much it pained him, but he nodded. “Orders are orders, but it doesn’t mean we have to kill them. Now go, get a backpack and fill it with supplies: Water, food, utensils, etc. Everything needed for wandering this god-forsaken wasteland, and survive. Get a bike, too. Oh, and while you’re at it, go to my wife and tell her that I asked for Box 220.” <br/><br/>“But why? She’s just a—”<br/><br/>“DO IT!” <br/><br/>“Yes sir!” And he scurried off, probably heading to get the things he was ordered to. <br/><br/>Father and daughter stood chatting a while, a chat that mostly consisted of the father comforting his daughter as best he could. Everything was going to be alright, he told her. There were people more willing to help her, and there were even rumours of Immortals banding together to form a small town of their own. He told her how sad he was that he couldn’t let her in, and that he would smuggle her in if he knew that he could, but it just wasn’t possible. She couldn’t hide her eyes, nor her teeth. Time would pass an eventually people would find out, and not only would she be persecuted but so would her parents. She… didn’t want that. Some people were so deathly afraid of Immortals that they would react with violence immediately which, in some cases she’d heard, resulted in a violent outburst of power where the Immortal accidentally killed and destroyed everything nearby. <br/><br/>No, she didn’t want that. Not at all. She resigned herself to her fate and toughed it out, trying once more to be daddy’s brave girl. <br/><br/>The colleague returned about an hour later, carrying a large backpack filled to the brim with supplies, dragging a dirty looking bike by the steerings; a long, square box was balanced on the seat of the bike. <br/><br/>“Thank you, now return to your post,” Evelina’s father said, dismissing the rookie. He took the backpack and looked through it, nodding to himself after a while, obviously satisfied. From within he pulled out a belt with several pouches attached to it and handed it to Evelina. “There’s a canteen there, a map and a compass, as well as some match sticks and a lighter if need be. Aside from that there’s food and water in here to last you for at least two weeks and,” he looked back at the bike, only now noticing the two bags on either side of it,” a lot more in those bags. Now,” he took the box from the seat of the bike and handed it to her. Opening it revealed an old SIG P220 Handgun, if what her father had taught her served her right. It was obviously very old, yet well maintained. <br/><br/>“A relic,” he explained. “A very old gun from before The Fall. I found it a long time ago with your mother. There is some 200 rounds for it in the box as well from the same time, which we found with it. They can’t be made anymore so use them sparingly.” She attached the gun and the holster to her belt. “And then there’s this,” he presented to her a sword; a 20 inch blade with an 8 inch handle. It was a relatively short sword with a broad blade and a sturdy appearance. It weighed heavily in her hand and felt… safe, somehow. “It’s reforged using the metal from a similar sword passed down through generations. It hasn’t been used since… before the Fall, I think, but it’s very old. I had it reforged a couple years back, and now I think you should have it. It’s… not much of a weapon in this world, but it may come in handy.” She gave her a sidelong smirk. “Who knows, maybe your new powers will make it a very good thing to have.” She couldn’t deny the possibility. <br/><br/>Despite herself, she giggled. Even in the worst of times her father seemed to make her laugh. “Thank you, dad. It’s… good to have you help me. I’ll try to see if I can find those other Immortals, and if not… then I’ll wait until people are more receptive of us. Tell mom that I said hi, and please… don’t lie to her. I think she’d rather know that I’m alive, but an Immortal, than believe that I either died or was taken prisoner by the Forsaken.” Whatever else she would’ve said was interrupted by a pair of strong arms embracing her. <br/><br/>“I’ll miss you, Evelina. Promise me that you’ll take good care of yourself, and don’t get into unnecessary danger.”<br/><br/>“I’ll do what I can,” she replied, embracing him as well for a short moment, then stepped back. “I think it’s time I go… Wouldn’t want to keep you from your job for too long.” She smiled at him, then, and kissed his cheek. “I’ll be going. Bye dad. S-Say hi to mom.” She brushed past him, taking the backpack and slinging it onto her back. She hopped onto the bike, straddling it. A turn of the keys and another of the handle caused it to emit a deep rumbling like that of a massive beast.<br/><br/>“There should be a fuel tank in one of the bags on its side. There’s a little extra in it, I think,” he said from behind her. “I don’t think I ever taught you how to ride one, but…”<br/><br/>“I’m sure I’ll figure it out,” she said, filling out the silence after his sentence. “It can’t be that hard, can it?” She chuckled, with a tiny sliver of humour actually making its way into her it. She looked back at him, eyes shining with unshed tears, and cheeks wet with those already shed. “I’ll come visit you some day, even if I have to sneak in myself. Bye dad, I l—” the rest of her sentence was lost in the very lady-like squeal she made when she she shot forward, having turned the handle of the bike a bit too much and sent it speeding into the distance.  <br/><br/>Brian Quinn chuckled. If she had the energy to squeal like that then there was nothing to worry about. He knew she was scared, and so was he. Her life had been turned on its head, but she was a strong girl and could get through it. But even then, he hated to see her go. He hated most of all that he was powerless to help her. <br/><br/>He sighed and returned to his post, resigning himself to a sleepless night, only the first of many to come. Both he and his wife would worry about her for weeks before they started to calm down enough to sleep soundly. <br/><br/>To their great surprise and joy, it took only a week. A letter arrived with a few sentences scrawled onto a messy piece of paper. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Dad, Mom. <br/><br/>I can manipulate light. It’s difficult to control, but I’m getting the hang of it. I also helped someone today: A kid had broken his leg during a caravan, and with no one else nearby they were desperate for help. I know they only let me help out of desperation, but getting an earnest thanks from that boy even when I’m an Immortal… It made me almost cry. <br/><br/>I’m alright. You don’t have to worry about me. It’s a little lonely, but I’m used to that.<br/><br/>Evelina Quinn, your daughter.</span><br/><br/>Only a few sleepless nights followed after the letter, and were completely dispelled when a second one arrived the next week. It became a common thing that, once a week, or every two weeks, a letter from Evelina would arrive, even if it only contained a “I’m alright.” She was safe, and that was enough for them.<br/><br/>Evelina herself found herself somewhat satisfied as well. She was lonely, as she had said, but it wasn’t that bad. She met kind people every now and then. As it turned out, not everyone hated Immortals.<br/><br/>That gave her hope.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.gyazo.com/55a33fb6a5f6aeb8bb1e304a40aa7377.png""/></div><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f26522"">Weapons:</font></span><br/>- A short broadsword carried horizontally across her lower back/hips. <br/>- <a href=""http://www.gunsandammo.com/files/2015/01/P220_NitronElite_10mm-226x300.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">SIG P220 Handgun</a><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f26522"">Armor:</font></span><br/>None<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f26522"">Ammunition:</font></span><br/>High Grade Rounds: 121 x 10mm rounds<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f26522"">Backpack:</font></span><br/>- Various herbal remedies &amp; formulas.<br/>- Splints, bandages, anesthetics; everything a wandering Medic would need, and more.<br/>- Various necessities (food, water, tent, clothes, soap, etc.)<br/>- Oils and tools to keep both weapons clean and functional. <br/>- Goggles. <br/>- 8 magazines for her gun (10mm rounds)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Belt Pouches:</font></span><br/>- 3 magazines for her gun <br/>- SIG P220 Handgun (8 bullets loaded)<br/>- Compass, Map &amp; Canteen. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Miscellaneous:</font></span><br/>- A bike, and fuel for it. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.gyazo.com/10351389f76a9335d4d823a2a929575e.png""/></div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Manifested Phenomena:</font></span><br/>Has the ability to control light in several different ways, chief among them being her ability to create barriers and ropes, or even send it forth as a beam of heat.<br/>- Can turn insubstantial and move with incredible speed for up to 2 seconds before she returns to physical form. <br/>     - Estimated Speed: 20 metres pr second<br/>- Resistant to heat and doesn’t seem bothered by high temperatures. <br/>- Immune to flashbangs<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Strengths:</font></span><br/>- Extensive Medical Knowledge<br/>- Decent gymnastic abilities (Flexibility, reflexes, etc)<br/>- Basic swordsmanship &amp; gun skills<br/>- Enhanced night vision (eyes)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Weaknesses:</font></span><br/>- Not very strong. <br/>- Somewhat vulnerable to cold. <br/>- Not the largest girl around; rather easily pushed around.<br/>- Powers are weakened during the night.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">Other:</font></span><br/>- She is a lover of meat, and has a great dislike for Vegetarians.

The type of beauty men (and women) spread rumors of-- the type of beauty that can control those who don't look beyond it's surface-- the type of beauty that can start wars, end nations, and inspire a people; Lucania possesses this beauty, and she's completely aware of it.<br/><br/>On a flawless ovular face with high check bones rest large, doe-like eyes that draw admirers in. The shades of irises fluctuate between eye colors both normal and fantastic, and possess an almost hypnotic quality. Her face is surrounded by brown locks of curling hair that possesses it's own voluptuous volume, the ends of which tend to become bleached blond in the sunlight. The flowers that grow from her long hair tend only to increase the otherworldly glamor her appearance carries. Her face is one without blemishes, completed with a roman nose and full heart-like lips.<br/><br/>Lucania carries herself with an almost regal air, her face, while kind, is also arrogant, she knows she's attractive and her smirk conveys this. Although not quite buxom, the woman is well-endowed and has the genetic luck of having the fat gained from a life in the cities accumulate in places such as her thighs and hips, further giving an hourglass figure. The dresses she wears tend to exaggerate the parts of her that already look good, such as her flawless olive skin and her overall figure, and tend to downplay those parts that are not, such as her weak arms and un-toned belly.</div></div><br/><br/><font color=""seagreen""><span class=""bb-i"">UPDATED:</span></font> After her visit to <span class=""bb-i"">La Petite Morte</span>, Lucania's appearance has been altered somewhat-- while not unrecognizable to those who know her, she no longer possesses that Hellenic beauty she was once known for. She still projects the appearance of wealth and prestige, but in a manner that is darker, more reserved and less braggadocios. <br/><br/>Her face, which once possessed an almost childish beauty, still follows the same scheme, but after a small skin bleaching session and some Old World collagen injections, she appears as noticeably paler, the bags under her eyes have become more apparent-- she looks to be closer to her age, perhaps even a bit older than she is now.<br/><br/>Several other changes have occurred, including now sporting darker, much shorter hair, her use of Old World contacts to dim the signs of Immortality in her eyes, and a shift in wardrobe from bright, expensive evening dresses to darker, still expensive overcoats and hats help to create a new image for the wanted Castalia.<br/><br/><font color=""olive""><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center"">Background</div></div></font><br/><br/><font color=""forestgreen""><span class=""bb-b"">Residence:</span></font> Bella Vista Suite, Castalia Casino &amp;

Momma says she’s real proud of me, and Daddy said he got me this diary—that’s you!!!-- Because he wants me to record life because he said I’d be a star one day! I didn’t even want to play with my other presents after that, Daddy and Momma know that I want to be a singer more than anything in the world, and you being here shows they believe in me!!<br/><br/>You will be the one I confide in. I promise to tell you everything that happens, everything I feel, everything I desire, every single thing I think. And every song that comes to my heart. There are some things I can't tell anyone. I promise to tell these things to you. <br/><br/>Today was absolutely perfect.  Momma let me sleep in, and when I woke up to see the time I almost died! I rushed to get ready for school but Momma stopped me at the door, she said “We’ll just tell them you sick today.” Then we ate pancakes and watched cartoons all morning, and she let me open a few of my presents before Daddy got home from work! <br/><br/>He got home late, but when he did get home we all got into a taxi without a word. Apparently Daddy had taxi driver friends, because he wouldn’t tell us where we were going—when we did get there I almost died <span class=""bb-i"">again</span>. He had gathered all my friends from school at Central Park! We had cake and ice cream, everyone got me gifts, and it was so fun!<br/><br/>It has been such a good day!<br/><br/>I’m so happy I can tell you about it all now.  When you and I get there, we’ll make Momma and Daddy even prouder than they already are. Well, I’m beat, I will see you tomorrow, Diary.<br/><div class=""bb-right"">Love, Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">12/25/2025</div><br/>You and I have become great companions over the last few months. Everyone notices how old fashioned it is to carry around a diary that you have to write in, but no one knows how special you are to me. Every time I write in you I feel like I’m that much closer to getting to where I want. <br/><br/>You’re special to me.<br/><br/>I know that’s dumb and childish, but I don’t care. Daddy got you for me because he believes in me, I do too. So why don’t they? It doesn’t matter, because when I’m writing in you I feel even closer to being a famous singer than when I’m practicing singing or performing at a show…<br/><br/>Speaking of shows—Merry Christmas! Daddy got me the role of the lead angel in this show they’re doing about the birth of Jesus. You know I’ve been practicing hard for this, but I can still barely believe it will be me singing! I’ve been resting my voice all day, going over my lines in my head, I barely noticed the presents under the tree this morning! Let’s hope I can make it a Merry Christmas for everyone who came to see me on stage!<br/><br/>Wish me luck! <br/><div class=""bb-right"">Love, Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">06/15/2026</div><br/>It was such a boring day. Dad had to go to the hospital again, so me and Mom just lazed around the house and did the chores. She made me do more than her, and she thinks I didn’t notice, but I’m okay with it. After all, she has been crying a lot lately, so I figured it’s the least I can do to help her.<br/><br/>I think they think I’m too young to understand what’s going on, but I know something’s wrong. Daddy is rarely around anymore and Mom is sad all the time. I wonder if they are getting a divorce?<br/><br/>This might seem mean, but honestly I already know I’d have to live with Daddy. He’s my agent, and he’s the one helping me get better at singing. I know! I’ll buy Mom a mansion when I’m rich!<br/><br/>Oh, Dad just got home. I had better go see what’s up. I’ll be back in a sec<br/><br/>(later) <div class=""bb-right"">06/15/2026</div><br/>It’s not a divorce.<br/><br/>Daddy is… dying? Mom was crying so hard that we had to leave the apartment for him to explain, but apparently he has cancer. He says he’ll be around as long as possible, but the doctors say he’s only got a few months left.<br/>I don’t know what this is I’m feeling, but it’s more than sadness.<br/><br/>What did I do to you, God?<br/><br/>Thank you for being here, Diary.<br/><div class=""bb-right"">Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">8/04/2029</div><br/>He’s been gone for exactly 1 year today. <br/><br/>I haven’t cried today, which I think is good, I’ve been dedicating more time to singing. It’s all I can do, I never see mom anymore, so I won’t pretend like I don’t want to become rich, because I do, that’s the honest truth.<br/><br/>But…<br/>I also remember why he got me you, Diary. I don’t want for him to have been wrong, so I have to keep singing, I have to keep hoping that I can be that 1 in 1 million. I will achieve the dream for both of us.<br/>Nothing else in life really matters anymore.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right"">Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">01/01/2030</div><br/>Today is the start of a new year, and with it, I am running away.<br/><br/>This comes after some time thinking things over, and after mom’s new boyfriend, I decided it’s best for me to just leave altogether. There’s a club in Brooklyn that needs singers, I know a girl in Harlem, she dropped out and lives on her own there, and she told me she’d love to have me as a roommate. Honestly, this couldn’t have worked out better.<br/><br/>This isn’t me over reacting, either. I’ve been planning this for months; this is just the first I’m telling you about it. Sorry. I know I said no secrets, but I didn’t want her or one of her creepy boyfriends finding out. No like she’d even care, I don’t think she was sober for a single day in December.<br/><br/>I’m still going to make it, it’s just going to be a little harder.  I’ll talk to you in a bit, Diary.<br/><div class=""bb-right"">Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">01/23/2030</div><br/>It’s been a hard month, but I finally landed the job! More than that, I think they really like me.<br/>When I sung for them, they looked like they couldn’t believe what they were hearing. At first I thought that was a bad thing, but then they started fumbling over each other to get a chance to welcome me on board!<br/>I’m just glad I can finally start living my life.<br/><br/>I’m beat. I’ll tell you more about it tomorrow. Goodnight Diary.<br/><div class=""bb-right"">Rose</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">04/05/2032</div><br/>18 was a hump that I am so glad I’m over. I can’t say that enough! Yeah, I’m still technically a “teen,” but only technically. 18 is like that point between two great things, adulthood and childhood, well, great for most people. For me, childhood was something I couldn’t wait to get over—In fact, I didn’t wait! Take <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> age! <br/><br/>19 is the year of the adult, and today marked my first major adult purchase! Amanda Morello, you know, my backup singer and bestie from the Bronx, well she and I are going half and half on that apartment on 5th street! I’m going to miss Harlem, but I think this is for the best.<br/><br/>Too many bad memories in Harlem. (Plus this new place is LOADS better looking)<br/><br/>Now, I know what you’re thinking “What ‘adult’ still writes in her diary?” To this query, I refer you to my current social status. Google me, go ahead, Diary, I’ll wait.<br/><br/>Hmm? What’s that? The Google search only turned up a bunch of Italian cocktails and a single list of clubs I’m singing for like 5 pages in??? I’m singing—I’m so so so happy for that, I’m telling you, sometimes I feel like a kid when they announce my name with the band and I get to sing to a smoky room full of distinguished looking men, but that’s all I’m doing right now.  One bar, no recognition on the streets, BARELY making enough to live… I’m not done documenting my rise yet.<br/><br/>You’ll see. I’ll be making enough money to make Daddy turn over in his grave.<br/><br/>In other news, I saw a guy today.<br/><br/>Now, you, my most confidential of confidantes know I’ve never had boyfriend trouble; I’m usually the one going after guys. But he was… different. Not like, mysterious, but like… heroic? He had this look about him that was easy-going and serious at the same time, and he was the first Italian I’ve ever seen with hair that actually flowed in the wind. I tensed up when he walked past me. <br/><br/>Me. Queen of Drama-Gift of Gab-Rosemary, tensing up?<br/><br/>I know. But it happened. I asked Amanda for his name, and apparently he’s some bouncer’s cousin from Chicago or something, goes by Luciano.<br/><br/>When I saw him, I couldn’t help but think of home.<br/><br/>I’ve never felt like this over a guy before, Diary. I do hope I see him again.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right"">R. R.</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">02/14/2033</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!</span><br/><br/>He’s such an old-fashioned cornball, but God do I love him.<br/><br/>We’ve only been officially dating for a few months, but today we go on a wonderful date for Valentine’s, Coney Island, and he’s just staring at me right? We’re sitting on a bench, eating churros or funnel cake—I don’t even remember, all I remember is those beautiful brown eyes, and his hair, God, his hair. Diary, I wish you had eyes so you could see Luciano’s hair. It’s like a model's.<br/><br/>Anyway, he’s staring at me, so of course, like the competitive idiot that I am, I think we’re playing or something and I stare right back. And we just sit there like that for… probably a few minutes, but it felt like hours. My heart always beats so fast when I’m looking at him, and he just seems so cool. Anyway, my eyes are red, I’m probably on the verge of tears, and his eyes are still so clear and cool and he just whispers; “Behind you, Rose.”<br/><br/>I nearly dropped my funnel cake when I turned. It was one of his mafia buddies, Viddy? Something like that. I’m sure they both got a kick out me yelping. Anyway, Viddy pulls out this red velvet pillow from behind his back and it’s got a ring on it. (And this rock on this thing, it’s huge, like I’m talking they stole the Hope Diamond or something) <br/><br/>Anyway, THAT surprises me, I turn back to Luciano to see he’s already on his knees, I only start freaking out more, Viddy walks over give the ring to him, and then my Lucian just looks at me with those big brown eyes of his, and the wind blows perfectly through his hair and a crowd is gathering…<br/><br/>You know what happens next, he’s still so cool, but he asks if I “want to be his girl?”<br/><br/>My heart felt like it would leap out of my throat!<br/><br/>But of course, I said yes.<br/><br/>OH MY GOD, DIARY, I SAID YES!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!</span><br/><div class=""bb-right"">Love, soon to be Mrs. Castalia</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/>Dear Diary, <div class=""bb-right"">05/07/2034</div><br/>Small entry today, Diary. <br/><br/>This is our first anniversary after all!<br/><br/>I guess I just dusted you off this morning to recap this last year, first; I got married!!!<br/><br/>Lucian is working a lot, but it’s okay, because I am too, our time together is that much more sweet. He said the Family needed a private singer, and they’d be lucky to have one as good as me. I’ve been BUSY, really busy, but, for the first time in a long time, also really happy.<br/><br/>Amanda also got married! To Lucian’s friend no less! That made moving out easier, though.<br/><br/>I can’t believe it’s been a year.<br/><br/>Hey, Dad? How about you? Do you think I’ve been doing alright?<br/><br/>I miss you.<br/><br/>I think I just woke Lucian—we’ll talk later.<br/><div class=""bb-right"">Love, Rose Castalia</div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/> <div class=""bb-right"">01/02/2035</div><br/>I<br/>I don’t even know why I’m writing this.<br/><br/>I couldn’t write you when I found out yesterday, I was just crying—I still am<br/><br/>I just<br/><br/>Oh God.<br/><br/>It’s just this feeling of absolute emptiness, tearing at me, as if it wants me to just end everything now and make it easier than just waiting, and knowing the end is going to come, with nothing I can do about it.<br/>I found out yesterday that the world was going to come in a month. We won’t get to have our second anniversary—I won’t even get to turn 22!<br/><br/>Luciano is in and out, I think he’s trying to figure out what’s going on—I don’t see how he can be so calm about all this! <br/><br/>Ugh<br/><br/>I don’t know what I should do. Besides cry, I mean.<br/><br/>Should I go pray, Daddy? Please talk to me, I miss you so much…<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">01/05/2035</div><br/>Luciano is working on something.<br/><br/>The National Crime Syndicate is working together; of course, all the fighting is behind them when faced with absolute destruction. But Luciano say that even if they do organize a bunker for the New York Outfit we won’t get in.<br/><br/>I told him that we should pray for anything that might help us get through this, that it might be a blessing from the Lord.<br/><br/>Luciano got this cold look in his eyes, like he saw something that I didn’t. He gave me a gun and told me that I should pray enough for the both of us, that he was going to put something together. Then he left.<br/>That was 2 days ago, now.<br/><br/>Don’t worry diary! I’m not alone, Amanda’s here, she didn’t feel safe in her house, and she said that she wanted to spend her last moments with family, and I was the closest thing to a living relative she had.<br/>I do wonder what my mother is doing. Is she even still alive? Part of me regrets leaving her—another part of me is just glad I’ve got someone here with me, blood or not.<br/><br/>What does Luciano think he’s doing? He’s smart, but…<br/>I don’t know.<br/><br/>I guess I’m just so sad about so many things, but I can’t cry anymore, I’m all dried out. So I can only think of how sad this all is and just feel it.<br/><br/>Useless, that’s it.<br/><br/>I feel completely useless.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">01/22/2035</div><br/>I got a call from Luciano today!<br/><br/>Which is good, I was beginning to think he had died. Amanda was right to fear the panicking. The people in the streets have become violent, I’ve had to use this gun in the name of protection several times and I haven’t even had time to reflect or pray on it.<br/><br/>We can no longer leave the apartment. We just cower and wait, in fear.<br/><br/>I’m so scared of death.<br/>I’m so scared of death.<br/><br/>Luciano knew that, too. He couldn’t call for long, I’m surprised that he even still has service, but when he did call, he told me some things that didn’t make much sense, that he was organizing a group, that he’d come for Amanda and I soon, and that I shouldn’t “lose hope.”<br/><br/>What else is there to do?<br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">01/31/2035</div><br/>Amanda and I had fallen asleep together, crying, but not alone. Then I heard the door, that was enough to twitch me awake, enough to draw the pistol on memory alone.<br/><br/>In the dark of the night, I had pulled a gun on my own husband!<br/><br/>I practically screamed in excitement, but Luciano told me to quiet down. He was bloody, but not injured, his eyes weren’t the eyes I was used to seeing, they were tired, serious, the carefree Lucian was--is gone, it seemed.<br/><br/>He didn’t—still hasn’t explained what his plan is. He’s determined to get us somewhere; I know that he has people waiting for him, rendezvousing at a certain place at a certain time.<br/><br/>I don’t know how I feel about this. Amanda is asleep in the backseat of the car, I’m in the front seat with Luciano- he hasn’t even glanced this way. He seems very worried.<br/><br/>I don’t know.<br/><br/>Wait. No. I do know something.  For the first time in a long time, I feel hopeful. Confused, yes, but I prefer this over whimpering and crying in a Manhattan high-rise.<br/><br/>His hair is still flowing beautifully.<br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">02/01/2035</div><br/>I might cry tears of joy.<br/><br/>There has been shooting.<br/><br/>A lot of shooting. But he isn’t dead! He said he needed most of the month to put this together, but he organized a coup.<br/>It’s a bunker.<br/><br/>It’s a musty, poorly made hole in the ground. Millions of dollars of illegal money went into its making, the Dons it was originally made for would die, and there would be millions <span class=""bb-i"">billions</span> more who died because they weren't as lucky as she had been. But that didn’t matter.<br/><br/>This is survival.<br/><br/>This is hope.<br/><br/>Diary. I feel like singing.<br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div></div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Castalia Family History.

I feel I am lucky to have been given a name that fits me so well.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""At birth, we are given names, and it is only when we are old enough to see the hubris of our parents, to think they know their children so well as to name them, that we may change them. I have the fortune of not having to do that. For this, I am blessed."" </span><br/><br/>(sigh)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That was my singing, I wanted to start out this recording with a song, one with significance to myself and my Family. I shall explain the significance of <font color=""blue"">Blue Velvet</font>, but I suppose first I should explain the purpose of this recording, shouldn't I?""</span><br/><br/>(dry chuckle)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My father, Luciano Castalia, the current Sottocapo of the Castalia Family, perhaps not the largest, but certainly the smartest criminal family in all of Dust, is a very devout believer in records. You know, diary's, journals, logs, and... I suppose now, recordings.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""He believes, my father, that records such as these help each new generation improve, by learning of the mistakes of our past, as well as simply keeping ourselves alive through the memories of our progeny.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""When I was younger, my father fervently tried to get me to write a diary, to which I always replied that I was simply too busy to handle such a task. To be honest, I knew he knew I was lying, I had ample amounts of time to dedicate to the endeavor. The fact of the matter is, I simply didn't find the idea of waxing poetic about which books I had been reading to be that appealing.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""So then. What changed? I am tempted to say 'age' and get on with the prologue, but honestly, it was something more than that. I never disagreed with my father about the importance of records from the past, you see. I consider myself an avid reader, in fact, my favorite book is a document from the past, detailing the very eventful life of Rosemary Castalia, the 'Godmother'-- my great-great-great-grandmother, if I recall correctly.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Without people like my father, and Rosemary's, I would never have had a chance to adopt Rosemary as a role model as I have.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""No... There are a myriad of reason I choose now to record this, but overcoming a lack of historical appreciation is not one of them. I'm lazy, for one. While I am one of Dust's educated elite, and I certainly <span class=""bb-b"">can</span> write, I don't particularly <span class=""bb-b"">want</span> to. So I won't.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Another more prominent reason, I think, is that the level of activity in my life has gone from singing and reading, to becoming the dreaded Bloody Sleeved Lucia of the Castalia Family. As much as I enjoy reading a young Rosemary's gripes with her first period, I myself, would like my story to involve more... <span class=""bb-b"">glory</span>.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""How dramatic. Perhaps I should become a thespian?""</span><br/><br/>(She laughs a little)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""This is the life of Lucania Castalia. I'll be sure to skip over the boring parts.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I was born on warm and dry morning on September 2nd, in the year 2354. My birth was one without complications, I didn't give my mother any pain, and the Gaen nurses all gave me a perfect bill of health.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I was born in Serenity, and for the most part, I've been here my entire life. Although I have no memories of it, apparently I was born in the lobby of the Castalia Casino &amp; Hotel. I don't doubt it. In those days, it seemed, the Hotel was nothing more than a gambling hall and a few rooms scrapped together. Hardly the testament to the resolve of humanity's perseverance it is today.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My father used to tell me all the time how mother would fawn over me, my eyes in particular. He said that she described them as these 'beautiful, brown things,' like they 'belonged to some beautiful animal.'""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Clearly, my mother's talents did not lie in the construction of lyrical prose.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Regardless, I'll never truly know what she saw in them. A few months after my birth, I came down with a terrible illness. A type of intense fever, I'm told. My father had the best doctors brought in, some from as far away as Aspin, and after a few days that I'm sure felt like an eternity for my mother and father, I recovered.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""But, that's when I developed my...'conditions'""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My eyes began spontaneously changing their colors, from my head and hair... flowers grew, and my father described my scent as smelling of... sunflowers.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""...This has continually confounded me. I haven't the slightest inkling of what a sunflower is or what they smell like.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That's irrelevant. It's my development of these conditions that now rob me of knowing what my mother saw in my brown eyes.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I don't find myself holding these conditions in contempt, though. For example, I find the flowers in my hair and my flowery scent to be quite pleasant, actually. My eyes are something of a bother to explain, but they've never caused me much trouble. However... there is something else I've become aware of.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""These mutations I've developed are not an isolated occurrence, there are others like me, and not like me, in that they develop aesthetic changes in their physical form and are then granted fantastical abilities.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""For me, this seems to be my voice.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My father once told me that I was generally a quiet baby, but after my illness, he said whenever I did cry, I might wake up the entire street I was so loud. Sometimes it got so bad they had to move me to a different floor altogether. Today I've developed this, through singing, through yelling and sheer volume, and through vocal intimidation that is, in a word; fantastical.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Enough of that for now, though.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My childhood, despite the tumultuous nature of our Family business, was generally a quiet one. I enjoyed reading-- I picked up singing after Rosemary, I spent time with my mother and father when they were available, but generally, I was content with my books and my voice.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I remember much from this time, but I told you I wouldn't bore you with unnecessary details. I think the most significant event of my childhood is when my mother ran away.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""It happened on an unusually dark night a few days after my tenth birthday. I remember, father had been away for some time, business, perhaps. We had expanded beyond Serentiy into Parkland by that point, so he must have been finalizing a few deals in Harlem or Laguna...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Wherever he was, it wasn't there. I think that had something to do with why mother... my mother, Rita Castalia... why she just left. I don't think they had been fighting, I think she was just, not fit for city life? That isn't to say that she was a bad mother-- she wasn't. I've only got fond memories of her, and I suppose that's what makes remembering this so hard.""</span><br/><br/>(There is a faint sniffle)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""She woke me up in the night. I remember her kneeling by my bed, she didn't look sad, but she wasn't happy either. ...Somber. Somber is the word I'm looking for, she was somber, and she explained to me why she was leaving, and why it was okay, why I shouldn't be sad.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Of course, I still bawled my little eyes out.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""She wasn't dressed for the deserts of Dust, but I knew that was exactly where she was headed. They were her home, before father and I. I don't think she ever held allegiance to any faction, she just traveled between free towns, helped out with problems. Really, I don't know what she and father had, but I think we all knew it was doomed. She wasn't some stay at home Mafia Dame... She was...""</span><br/><br/>(her voice breaks a little)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""...incredible. She was my hero. But I suppose Dust needed her more.""</span><br/><br/>(She sniffles again)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Right. I remember what she told me, I remember her exact voice from that moment. I would like to use my ability and quote her here but...""</span><br/><br/>(A final faint sniffle)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I think that, right now, that would just be too painful.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Mother was a fan of jazz singing, and the moment before she left, she actually made a request of me. It was tearful, but I obliged. She asked me to sing for her '<font color=""blue"">Blue Velvet</font>.'""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Moving on. Father returned to find his wife gone and fell into a depression. I never told him what she told me, or that I could have stopped her, I felt that would have been wrong. I still do.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""He loved her. Her leaving broke his heart, and made him ineffective at his job. Despite my young age, during this time some of his responsibilities fell to me. While he used the months following her passing to drink himself into stupors and sleep with every Call Girl in the Family's employ. I found myself becoming immersed into the business my Family had been building for over 300 years.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I assisted with administrative things, book keeping, occasionally tagging along to collect payments. I was never in any real danger, and the amount of work I was actually helping with was probably negligible. But. I found it all enjoyable. And from the beginning, I found I was actually quite good at it.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""No one expects to be kneecapped by a pre-pubesceant girl.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I was apprenticing under several capos around this time, and it was at this time that father was able to pull himself out of his depressive rut.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""With the unexpected birth of my younger sister.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""It was one of the Family's sex workers. He had gotten one of them pregnant in his quest to fill the love lost in his heart with physical pleasure. It didn't work. But I think the arrival of Lucina, technically a bastard, did remind him that he had other responsibilities, more than I or the Don ever could.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Following her birth, I became his sole apprentice, he took my training personally and very seriously... I often wonder if the passion and aplomb with which he took to educating me as his successor was in part because he saw in me my mother?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Hmmm...""</span><br/><br/>(she sighs, then laughs)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Well, I suppose this makes me a bit of hypocrite. I started this with the intention of skimming over my time as a girl so that I might weave an epic tale of blood shed and conquest in the name of the Castalia Family... and yet, now that I'm here, I don't know what to say!""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""It could simply be that I've spent so much of my life immersed in this...""</span><br/><br/>(She chuckles)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I became father's apprentice at the age of 11. It wasn't until 13 that I became involved in thefts and kidnappings, acts reserved for lower level members. At 14, I believe, is when I took my first life. 14 is also when I began singing at the club our Family owns here, The Blue Room, it was back-up for an older jazz singer, whose name escapes me at the moment, but he specialized in Old World renditions. He assisted in mentoring me, vocally.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""When I was 16, I commissioned my first dress. I had often wondered how to better conceal weapons, when the idea came to me in a dream.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Stitching the blade into your clothing!""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""My father thought the idea was silly. I didn't allow myself to be discouraged, however, and I took the idea to the Don himself-- and he challenged me to prove it's use. He allowed me to have one dress made, and then demonstrate his use to him. He gave me a list of names of people that owed the family.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""We tracked each individual down. They all got this confused look on their faces when I raised my arm, letting my sleeve cover my hand-- that look was immediately replaced by pain and horror when I would bring my arm down, though.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I returned to the Don with a necklace made of their ears on a string the very same night.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Our Call Girls have similar blades stitched into their sleeves now, as well.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""On my 21st birthday, I became an official made member. Receiving the Don's-- my Grandfather's blessing, it was the happiest I had ever seen father since mother left.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Hmmm... since then?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Well, as a headliner, I've been instrumental in the popularity of all four of our clubs, the increase in sales of narcotics correlate with this. I spearheaded our spread into Wolfwater's organized prostitution and narcotic sales. And currently, I'm slotted to be the next Sottocapo, or Underboss, of the Family!""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""And... well... That's it so far. This is my life, the life of Lucania Castalia.

For as far back as I can remember, I've always identified with the heroes of the stories I would read, the brave knights and princes who would slay some great evil and be rewarded with some attractive princess in the end-- I didn't identify with them character wise, no, in that regard, I've always sided with villains-- I think, mostly, I found myself wanting a wealthy happy ending with a princess.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Obviously I hoped that when I found my princess, she would have more character than the ones typically portrayed in Old Earth fairy tales.""</span><br/><br/>(She laughs)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I think mother always knew, she never had a problem with my tendencies. Although to be fair, the sexual behaviors a 10 year old displays are very different from the ones a 16 year old displays.

I'm not still pining after the affections of a love long lost, quite the opposite, in fact. I just think it's important to recall the emotions associated with a particular memory when we relive the past. Blame my father.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""As I said before, it was my father who introduced us. She was the daughter of a Guardian some cretino had killed without orders. When something like this happens, The Family puts together funds to ease the suffer of any widows and find work for any children. It doesn't always work out smoothly, but it's nice when it does. This was one of those instances.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Well, as it turned out, we needed a bookmaker, and Salem was willing, but she needed to learn.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Who do you think father dearest chose to mentor her?""</span><br/><br/>(She laughs)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Honestly, I don't think we even lasted a week before we found ourselves raiding utility closets whenever we could, looking to steal kisses from each other.""</span><br/><br/>(She sighs again, taking a longer pause, as if reflecting on the past)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""She was beautiful. She had this short blonde hair that was almost white in the sun, she didn't like that about her, I recall multiple instances of her trying to hide it all with a hat she was rather fond of, that didn't matter though, she was beautiful without it. Her skin was soft and dark and freckled... she might have had some Aqueon ancestry now that I think about it... Oh, how I wish I could have asked her.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Ah well...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Her real beauty was how she interacted with the world.

I think it was only about 8 months. I guess the exact time I spent with her doesn't really matter, does it? She's gone. But the love we shared exists in a place where there's no space or time. I love her, and I know she wants me to be happy.""</span><br/><br/>(You hear her move away from the microphone, her voice was breaking)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""In a word, the time I spent with her was; dreamy.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""We had so many dreams. We would get married! We would have children, adopted orphans, of course, and eventually grandchildren! We planned on spreading her father's ashes all over Dust and... Oh! We were going to be Mrs. Castalia, I'd be her Don, and she would be my doll... I'd retire early, and we could move to Aspin! She adored Aspin. I think, in another life, she was a mathematician, her skill as a bookkeeper supports my thinking. It would be safe and quiet in Aspin-- She wanted so bad to see it.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I had already been several times by that point... I promised her that I'd take a weekend off and just go there...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I'm sorry, Salem...""</span><br/><br/>(You can hear light weeping, for several minutes following this, there is silence)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I... apologize for losing my composure.

I think that it is... important. Perhaps just as much for progeny as my own mental health.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""She was accepting and open, when she thought of something, she put her all into it-- and when she felt something, everyone knew it. She wasn't just aware of her flaws, she wore them like badges of honor. She wasn't original, and she didn't try to be, she was a truly authentic soul, and I loved that about her. This beautiful gestalt, abstract mosaic of a woman...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""And the sex...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""How would Lucina put it?""</span><br/><br/>(Her voice becomes more girlish and high pitched)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Well, it was off the charts!""</span><br/><br/>(Her voice returns to normal)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Is it odd that, in many ways, she reminds me of my mother?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Perhaps I have some kind of reverse Oedipus complex?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""More than just their shared slender physique, too. They had similar senses of humor, they were both kind and adventurous in the same way-- they even possessed the same taste in music!""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Salem loved hearing me sing, like mother, and her favorite song of mine, by far, just like mother, was <font color=""blue"">Blue Velvet</font>.""</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i"">Audiolog.

I found her, in my old suite, at 11:38 that night. I remember it being warm, almost unbearably so. I didn't need to alert father, or the Winged Guardians, my yell was so loud, I know everyone in Serenity knew.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Someone had raped and killed her.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""The events leading up to it don't matter. I've gone over them more times than I care to mention, and it was, literally, an average evening up to a single point. There was a Family meeting I needed to attend, so I let Salem go to my room herself.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That's the point-- the single point I wish I could undo that evening.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That is the point where nothing else matters. This wasn't a gang killing, but it wasn't a random act of violence either. It was a crime directed at me, who ever the man was, he was waiting in my room, waiting for me.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Instead, however, he got Salem.""</span><br/><br/>(She is quiet for several minutes)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I've been angry for a long time. I won't pretend that I'm not anymore, I am. Whoever it was, managed to get away with it for this long, and is still out there, and... this has only increased my rage. But it has also driven me. He forced my hand, for years I've chased him, I feel something more base than the void child of apathy and raw hatred towards him, but in a way he's molded me into the person I am today.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""It wasn't enough to steal one life.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That's alright, though. I haven't let it consume me, I haven't completely moved on, yes, but I have continued living, and soon I will be able to move on.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I now know who he is.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Russel City, where we soon plan to make our presence know, harbors a an animal disguised as a man.

Descended from the protected son of philosopher Willard Quine, an important philosopher and analyst himself, the Quines have passed down the works and teachings of the greatest philosophers of the old world. An exceptionally bright student, he earned his father’s pride, even when he decided to pursue a career in the military, rather than take up the family trade, and the pursuit of deeper study.<br/><br/>At first he was assigned as a caravan guard, like most members of the Diversum’s armed forces, however over time it became clear that his talents were being wasted. By the time he was 24 he had worked his way into an elite section of the military, focused on gathering intelligence on the Forsaken Order. At the age of 27, he was sent to the mountains above Ironhold, deep within enemy territory, to watch troop movements in and out of the city. While there, he found himself getting sick with what appeared to be a pretty standard cold. After a midnight foray into a nearby mining camp to steal some supplies and any intel he could find, Bento was on the face of a cliff, free-climbing back up to his campsite when his fatigue got the best of him. He knew he shouldn’t have been running ops while under the weather, but he had needed those supplies. In a particularly difficult section of the climb, he missed a hold and found himself plummeting to what surely should have been his death. Near the bottom of his fall he threw his hands toward the ground in some irrational attempt to push the ground away. To his surprise the winds suddenly started to pick up with such force that they began to slow his fall.<br/><br/>When he woke up, Bento had been stripped of his gear and imprisoned underground. After almost a year of torture, he was eventually sent to the mines to work long, hard hours. They slept in the mines, they ate in the mines, and they would most likely die in the mines. In fact, if it were not for the selflessness of a single man, Bento would never have been given the chance to see the sun again. After roughly 2 years of service, now 30 years old, Bento and his work group were caught in a terrible accident where he was pinned and left to die. Saved by an older man, by the name of Promos, the two became close friends. After learning of the older man’s son and family back home in Harlem, Bento swore to repay the old man for his kindness by returning him to his family. After 4 more years in the mines the two of them were selected to accompany a large trade caravan travelling through Motum Diversum and Aqueous territory. <br/><br/>-Contents of First Post-<br/><br/>After his escape from slavery, Bento began amassing a small fortune in the arms sales. As it turns out, building a small army of former slaves and hitting the Forsaken’s trade routes could be a pretty good gig for a while. Things got a little too hot once the Iron King started sending squadrons of Soulless after them, but a few months of bloody revenge could go a long way. After that whole ordeal, the Major rented out a small apartment up in Gate’s Pass where he worked part time as a bouncer at one of the various brothels in town. The pay was alright, and the ‘bonuses’ were marginally better, but the real benefit was the ability to make a few trips up to see his father in Aspin after learning he had defected there to study physics.<br/><br/>After 2 months Bento decided, for a variety of reasons, that leaving Aqueous territory would be a smart choice. Unwilling to subject his father to the dangers of harboring an Immortal, the Windcaller decided returning to Russell City would be his best bet. Upon entering the city, he managed to broker an agreement with Colonel Thorne, the terms of which amounted to little more than that if Bento kept his head down the Diversum wouldn’t bother him. He has now been in town for a week and has been generally looking for work and wasting away his stash of bullets wherever the whiskey is good.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Smith &amp; Wesson 357 Revolver:"" type=""button"">Smith &amp; Wesson 357 Revolver: [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.smithandwessonforums.com/forum/attachments/s-w-revolvers-1945-present/15682-sw-686-357-7-shot-differences-dscf0291-640x480-.jpg""/></div></div></li><li><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bowie Knife:"" type=""button"">Bowie Knife: [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://crafting-a-life.com/craftlit/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/BowieKnife.jpg""/></div></div></li><li>Scoped M14 (wooden frame)</li></ul><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Armor:</span> N/A<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Ammunition:</span> <ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Dirty Rounds:</span> 100</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">High Grade Rounds:</span> 40 (20 round clips x2)</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Grenades:</span> 7</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Black Leather Knapsack:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""> <br/><li>Medkit, Rope, Rations, Canteen, Sewing Kit, Flashllight, Ammo (72 dirty 357 magnum), Misc Ammo (50 High-Grade shotgun slugs + 142 dirty 9mm rounds) Matches, Grenades, Painkillers, and a bottle and a half of moonshine</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Belt:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""> <br/><li>Gun/Holster, Bullet Pouch (18 dirty 357 magnum), Spare Clip, Knife</li></ul><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""navajowhite"">Immortalis Information</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Manifested Phenomena:</span> <font color=""#6ecff6"">Air/Wind</font><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Unique Abilities:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#6ecff6"">Windcaller</font></span>: Creates powerful gusts of air that can knock back opponents and toss around various objects.

Her steely hair is kept in a mid length ponytail, often tucked inside a shirt. Her face is rather hard, tempered by the heat of molten metal and welding arcs. Her eyes are obviously striking with their pulsing red glow, as is her hair, gleaming in whatever light there is. Her features are Slavic and rather unremarkable. <br/><br/>Despite her modest height, she has a rather burly upper body for a woman, with defined muscles evident on her arms and shoulders. Her welding goggles, fused to a gas mask, never seem to leave her face, though the glow of her eyes can be seen if one gets close enough and she doesn’t have the filters at their fullest. <br/><br/>Were she to remove her armor and mask, there is little that's striking about her appearance. Arms and upper body pockmarked with scars, burns, and ample muscle.

Odd that two people could almost instinctively tell they liked each other while swapping jokes over grinding wheels and bandsaws. <br/><br/>After two years, they’d moved into their own welded together house and continued to turn scrap metal into something valuable, only now they always worked together.<br/><br/>Vladimira Kovalik was born roughly three years later, two years after her brother. Raised in the industrial town of Arclight, she took to metalworking like a duck to water as soon as she could walk, surprising both of her parents with her raw enthusiasm for the work, as well as the mechanical genius she seemed to have. She would stay up late at night, tinkering away at whatever her latest project was, be it an expanded magazine for some wandering scavenger’s rifle or a turbocharger fan. She loved to use her hands, refining parts to turn an old beat up scrap rifle into a borderline work of art, or operating ammunition presses, or welding a piece of steel to another piece of steel. <br/><br/>Her brother however, was just the opposite. He had no desire to stay indoors making guns and ammunition, he preferred to simply wander around, exchanging idle conversation with anyone and everyone. Whereas his sister’s obsession with machines limited her human contact to almost zero, only sometimes speaking with her family while eating, Andrei lived for meeting new people and longed to leave Arclight and do… anything. <br/><br/>Which is what he did. <br/><br/>One morning, only a week after her eighteenth birthday, Vladimira was woken to a strange sound… it was almost as if her mother was crying, and her father trying to comfort her.<br/><br/>It had been apparent to her that something was very wrong, and -her leg freshly broken due to her own foolishness with one of her hammers- she hobbled towards the direction of their voices to find a piece of ragged paper on a table, as well as her parents.<br/><br/>She had tentatively walked to the table and read the paper. The note was short and succinct, briefly covering his boredom with Arclight and desire to see the world. She’d put the note down then, and gone to inspect the small room he had called his own. It seemed as though all he’d taken had been some clothing, food, and water.<br/><br/>While his departure had little to no effect on her, she’d probably spoken fewer than a hundred words to him in her whole life, it shook her parents badly, especially her mother. <br/><br/>While Vladimira continued on like normal, perhaps a stray thought entering her mind now and then about how Andrei was doing, wherever he was, and her father seemed agitated whenever someone mentioned Andrei’s name to him, and he seemed to blame himself for not noticing his son’s wanderlust, her mother was the one truly hit hard.<br/><br/>Galina Kovalik would constantly fret about her son’s condition, it drove her to distraction, such that her attention would constantly drift away from what she was doing. For two years she lived like that.<br/><br/>One day, while working an ordnairy shift in the factories, Galina’s attention lapsed once more as she operated a ladle handling steel to be dumped in a crucible. Her husband and daughter were elsewhere, but they both heard the explosion, as well as everybody else in the factory. Sprinting as fast they could, they found five burned bodies thrown like ragdolls against various machinery covered in cooling steel, among them Galina, only indentifiable by the necklace clutched in an unburned hand.<br/><br/>Her father was devastated, becoming almost a shell of his former self, only seeming human around the only family he had left; and while her brother’s departure hadn’t affected Vladimira too much, her mother’s death did. She was continuously haunted at night by images of burned flesh and a hand clutching a necklace. She’d been withdrawn before, but afterwards she would spend entire days cooped up in a workshop working ferverishly on various things to keep her mind occupied. Her minimal human contact dropped even further, and enthusiasm for her work petered off too. If she stayed in the workshop she could pretend it hadn't happened. Close the door on reality, even if just for a little while.<br/><br/>Vladimira also couldn’t help but think on how close she’d come to death herself that day. She’d come down with a bad cold, or something like it, and had left the area around the crucible that would explode not soon after to clear her mask, as it had been dangerously fogging up and a small part of the visor was even covered in mucus. A simple cold was responsible for her not becoming a sixth body, but she’d also been there keeping her mother’s mind focused and helping her operate the machinery. The same cold might’ve also been responsible. She knew her mother’s mind had wandered, Galina would always hold the little necklace in her hands and pray for her son when her mind wandered… <br/><br/>It shook her to the core to think her mother might be dead because she had left to clean her visor. She felt like everybody she saw, not that she saw many people, were all silently judging her, accusing her of being responsible for the explosion, especially the families of the other dead. <br/><br/>A few days after her cold seemed to peak and then retreat she lay in her bed in the pitch darkness, hands idly fumbling with some wires to keep her mind occupied- but for some reason it wasn’t, not completely. A pulsing red glow illuminated a small area in front of her eyes, much to her confusion.<br/><br/>She’d sat up, looking for the source of the light, but didn’t see any. Laying back down, the glow returned, right in front of her eyes, almost like they themselves were glowing.<br/><br/>She’d bolted upright then, staring at her hands as she brought them to her eyes and brought them away again.<br/><br/>Stumbling from the bed she’d grabbed the only mirror they owned, more of a shard of an old one, but it still worked. Her eyes, those were the first things she noticed. They looked like small discs of red hot metal, almost glowing white in the center, the whites were still there, but her pupils and irises were gone, replaced by… And her hair, she didn’t recall her hair looking like fine steel wires. <br/><br/>She didn’t know what to do, a single word had drifted across her mind, <span class=""bb-i"">Immortal…</span> <br/><br/>She was an Immortal. That cold hadn’t been a cold.<br/><br/>She dropped the mirror, stumbling back as it landed on an old shirt. She fell into a sitting position on her bed. <span class=""bb-i"">I can’t stay here.</span> She realized, <span class=""bb-i"">They’ll do… something, I don’t know what and I don’t want to know.</span><br/>__________<br/><br/>She’d woken up the next morning to her father sitting across from her, conflicted emotions on his face.<br/><br/>“I know.” He said simply, holding up the shattered fragments of mirror and tapping his eyes, though he’d still looked slightly stunned when she opened hers to look at him. <br/><br/>She’d felt paralyzed with fear as he sat there for what seemed like an eternity, but was closer to fifteen seconds. Then he’d stood up, and walked out of the room, returning with an old military rucksack filled with what looked like food, water, and other essentials…<br/><br/>“You’re going to need these. They won’t let you stay here.” He’d managed to choke out to her, pulling out the rifle she’d tweaked over the years into a finely tuned piece of rugged art, and affectionately dubbed “Comrade”, from behind the chair, along with the two old pistols he’d inherited and kept around, hoping to never use them. Vladimira had worked on those too, giving them new barrels to replace the old and worn ones.<br/><br/>That didn’t change the fact that she was being handed a backpack and weapons and told she needed to leave. <br/><br/>She’d taken the weapons and backpack without further eye contact, wanting to just leave and get it over with. <br/><br/>“I love you, you know that right?” Her father’s words had caught her and she’d looked back for the last time, dropping the bag and weapons and rushing back to hug him tightly. Just as quickly, she’d run for the door, scooping up the rucksack and weapons and running from the house.<br/>__________________________________<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Four months later…</span><br/><br/>She was living in a small hole she’d carved into the desert ground and covered with a metal sheet she’d forced into the proper shape -fitting that she could manipulate iron and steel, having spent her life working with tjhem- and sand, all of it concealed by a cluster of boulders. She’d acquired a gas mask somewhere along the way and had made the decision to melt her welding goggles to it, which kept the sun out of her eyes and the harsh winds and sand from her face and lungs. The cloak had been taken off the corpse of a bandit who looked to have acquired it from a scavenger or traveler. <br/><br/>Still haunted by nightmares of burned flesh, often with herself taking her mothers place, screaming as the molten steel splashed onto her. Still haboring guilt. Whenever she spoke with people her mind would conjure images of what they might look like dead, bleeding out on the ground, burned beyond recognition, filled with bullet holes… she’d almost gone beyond caring at that point, her heart hardening further as she sank into an apathetic slump.<br/><br/>She wasn’t comfortable, or content, but she was surviving, and that was something. She sold her skills as a mechanic, and sold what she scavenged too, managing to subsist on the relatively meager income, but she wanted more, there was always room for more of the ammunitition used as currency in her pockets.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""#ffd700"">Gear</font></div></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> <br/>“<span class=""bb-b"">Comrade</span>”: An old Mosin-Nagant 91/30, has twenty one notches on the stock, presumably from the Russian soldier who last had the rifle, has a folding bayonet and a carry strap. <br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Comrade"" type=""button"">Comrade [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.typo.org/~web/guns/images/mn-with-bayonet.jpg""/></div></div><br/>Two TT-33 Tokarev pistols: More old Russian weapons, Vladimira carries them in two paddle holsters strapped to her thighs and is somewhat capable of using them simultaneously, though she generally will simply pull out Comrade if she actually needs to shoot somebody at any range.<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""TT-33 Tokarev with holser and ammunition"" type=""button"">TT-33 Tokarev with holser and ammunition [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i773.photobucket.com/albums/yy20/ThemPancake/tokarev-tt-33-1er-categorie_zps3b9f7629.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Armor:</span> <br/><br/>Vladimira wears a pair of welding goggles fused with a gas mask fitted with particulate filters to keep out the dust of… Dust… She wears a ragged hooded light grey cloak with baggy, overly long sleeves sewn on the inside to shield the arms from sunlight, blocking out the sun from her body and effectively concealing what she has underneath it.

<font color=""#ec008c""><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span></font> If Lucania is a gem-- then Lucy is costume jewelry in comparison. While one would have to be blind to claim that the girl is objectively unattractive, she isn't what one would call a 'natural looker.' Possessing the tall, slender build of a model of the Old World, Lucy might be some man's dream come true. Still, she simply doesn't possess the youth and beauty granted to Lucania. 

Years of substance abuse have physically weathered her beyond her age. Lucy's brown eyes have an almost lazy droop to them; they, along with her aquiline nose, give her face a it's very distinctive appearance. She tends to wear clothing that make fashion statements complimenting her taller, lean muscled form, as opposed to the evening gowns and blouses that Lucania is known for. She re-purposes the casual wear of the Old World, to hide her scars and her sickly lack of weight. 

Another difference between Lucy and her sister is make-up. While the 6th Castalia is known to wear lipstick and eyeliner in moderation, Lucy tends to cake herself in the stuff. This is to hide the black and sunken eyes of fighting and malnourishment, and to cover up scarring of a constantly bleeding nose.To the untrained eye, a fully made-up Lucy, wearing a dress, might just be mistaken for Lucania.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">my name is lucy.</span> everyone calls me that, including me, i dunno why? they named me lucina.

the *fat bastard would have named me garbage if lucania would have let him. but she wouldnt, so he did the next best thing. he just took out an 'a' from her name and switched some letters around. thats all I am to him, anyway-- less than her, a corruption of his 'real daughter.' im not whining here!! Hes fucking told me this to my face
<div class=""bb-right"">(*fat bastard=Dad)</div>
im not fronting when i say i dont care tho

so like, lucania is making me write this stupid diary because shes a fucking nerd obsessed w/ pasttimes stuff an family records or whatever? the fat bastard made her do audiologs a while back. (unsurprisingly he gave no shits if no one remembered i existed) lucania cared tho, so i guess thats why she's making me do this

shes practically looking over my shoulder as i write. its kinda creepy

she says my spelling is alright but my punctuation and capitalization could use 'some work'

ugh, whatevr. 

listen:

17 yrs ago-- one husband ago, 250,000 blunts ago, 80,000 cigarettes ago, 5,000 pills ago, 3,000 quarts of booze ago, at least a few kilos ago and more stupid fights than i can count ago...
17 yrs ago is when i was born.  

lucania was 10 or 11, her mom had just left and the fat bastard gave up all human decency in his impotent grief--

lucania looks really impressed that i kno that word right now...

god, why did you make my sis such a fucking nerd?

i was born of the fat bastards whore binge

i kno he knows who it was he got preggers, but he wont tell me. which leads to a weird situation where i may have been in a fucking fight with my mom at the bar--

lucania says thats just like this thing called oedipus

now shes changing her mind and says it might be electra

ugh omfg do you see what it is i have to deal w/ on a daily?

i joke, but i do love her. shes p much my only friend, and honestly shes more of a mother and father to me than that fat bastard ever could be. even if shes an uptight spaz sometimes

i find myself worried for her more often than id care to mention, which is whole fuckin lot. shes got this ambition, but its like... wrong? like, shes pretty much just some wildcard for fat bastard to use like a pawn, but even on her own she likes throwing herself into danger and thinking up these schemes and gmabits and whatnot to 'expand the family business'

i dont get it. its not for the money, i think. she dresses for appearances and she lives in the lap of the fucking luxe, but its all secondary. i know she wants some kind of glory, all the books she tells me about always have some hero asshole totally outwitting the world and making off with the loot and pussy and fame. but shes not just <span class=""bb-s"">emula</span> copying the characters, its more like the has this drive to do something else, and she uses the pasttimes shit as inspiration

but i dont get what that 'something else' is

uggggggghhhhhhhh

what else is there to write about i was born, lucania and maids took care of me, hmmm

i had my real fight at 11 or 10, i forget. she was a few years older than me and she tried to take my drink, or something, i kicked her in the cunt, it was an ok day. after that, lucy started giving me escorts, i think she was scared someone might try to hurt me for some reason

so yeah, then i just started going out at the nights
and basically just do that for 7 more years and you got me now!

well throw in that time paolo tricked me into getting married... but like, fuck that...

seriously he had it planned, he had been getting me drunk for like a week when one night, i get really tipsy really fast one night, i think he put something in my drink-- i remember getting in a car with him header for laguna before I passed out

seriously, he had a guy waiting at laguna to make it legal, in like, the government or whatever

i don't get why they didn't just shoot him them or why i don't just cancel the marriage or something, but its always 'tradition this' and 'catholic that'

like, i think id remember if i fucking signed up to be a catholic</span>

There a people whose beauty is comparable to the gods from ancient Greece. There are those whose beauty stems from an excotic combination of colours, and even those whose rough and calloused exterior attracts. And then there is Octavia, a young woman whose appearance does not fit into any of these categories. While an attractive young woman in her own right the main focus of any attention directed at her is the startling colour of her hair and eyes. Locks of wavy purple fall down to the middle of her back, framing a face with a slightly pointed chin, high cheekbones and full lips. 

Hours upon hours of exercise has gifted her with a body toned to perfection, with powerful thighs, a toned belly and overall slim build. Subtle muscles can be spotted moving beneath her skin as she moves, never so prominent as to detract anything from her feminine side. While not exactly the epitome of the hourglass figure, she still possesses a modest bust and shapely hips transitioning into round thighs. 

To see her without her long nails and lips coloured a purple similar to her hair is about as rare as seeing Santa, some would say. And to a degree it is true; she never goes out without at least those two cosmetics.

Dear Diary

I’m actually writing in it! It’s my tenth birthday today, and Daddy just got me a diary! I’m so excited! He even bought a <span class=""bb-s"">pearple</span> purple one!

You write in a diary, don’t you? I dunno what to write… My day? Okay! Mommy woke me up with kisses in the morning. She kissed my cheeks and poked my nose so I woke up. Then she gave me a pretty piece of cake! I felt almost bad for eating it. It was so cute! She said that colours for it was difficult to get, but seeing me smile when I saw it made it worth it. It also tasted really good. 

Then she took me downstairs to my dad. We have a big home, they say. They say that a lot of people are <span class=""bb-s"">jal</span> <span class=""bb-s"">Jellous</span> jealous of our stairs, and wants to have some too. Anyway, we went down to dad and he gave me a present! You! My Diary! He also gave me some dolls he had bought. I liked them a lot but not as much as you, Diary. You’re my favourite colour, and Mom and Dad told me that I can tell you everything, so I am. 

But it’s getting late now, and Mom’s calling saying I should sleep. Good night!

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>

Dear Diary

It’s been over a year now, and I just realised something! I completely forgot to tell you about me! I am so sorry, and I know I should have known better. You probably know a lot about me already, but in case you ever forget I’ll write it down now so that you can remember.

My name is Octavia Rowena Atalanta Gabriele. It’s a long name, I know, and I also prefer to just be called Octavia Gabriele. It’s much shorter but still nice. I was born March the 23rd year 2357. I live in Serenity with my mom and dad. I go to school while they work. My mom makes clothes (I think it’s called a Tailor) and my dad works in the Powerplant. I think he makes a lot of money from that. He never told me how much he gets, but I think it’s a lot. 

I like the colour purple. A lot. I also have a lot of friends at school, but I only spend time with a few of them after school. They are my best friends. There is Michelle, Michael, Cassie, and Luna. Luna says that her parents named her after something they found in a very old book, something called a Moon. I have to ask mom and dad what that is. 

I also like to sing and to dance. And I dance a lot. Whenever mom has time I like to dance and sing for her. I’m not very good but I practice. I know I’ll become good one day! Mom also says that. She believes in me. Dad just laughs when I dance for him, and then Mom scolds him. Says he has to be nice. 

Well… That’s about it about me. I’m a big girl who likes to dance and sing, and I have lots of friends. I hope we continue to be friends, too, Diary. Good night!

Dear Diary

WOW! I saw something amazing! 
When I was on my way home I saw some of the older boys go to a bar after school. Luna and I followed them because one of them… Oh he’s so cute! <span class=""bb-s"">His name is Jake and</span> That’s not important. Luna and I followed Jake and his friends into the bar and we saw something amazing! Or I did. Luna was busy talking to Jake. 

I didn’t get to talk much with Jake, but I didn’t care. I saw something amazing on the stage! There was a woman only in underwear dancing! But she didn’t just dance normally. No, she did all sorts of really difficult things with a large iron pole. She held herself up with only one arm, hung upside down, and sometimes only with her legs. The things she did were amazing and looked so cool! I really want to do that too. 

So I went home and asked me dad if he knew someone who could teach me. He almost spat out his coffee when I asked him, and my mother looked the same. They said I couldn’t, and they would under no circumstances allow me to do it. I think they’re stupid. It’s just dancing, right? I don’t have to take off my clothes and stand there in only my underwear. Ugh. I barely have any boobs to show yet, so it’s not like I’d show anything important even if I wore only underwear! 

Mom did say that she knew someone who was good at gymnastics, and told me that I could do that instead. Well… it’s close to dancing, isn’t it? I can at least practice… something until I am old enough to decide what I want to do myself. I guess I’ll do it. I start next week. 

...I’m actually looking forward to it.

EEEEEEEEH!!!
Jake asked me out today! We’re going on a date tonight! I can’t wait I’m so happy!!!

I used a bunch of my savings on a new dress! It’s going to be so great! 

...I wonder if he’ll kiss me. Ah! I have to get ready!

Dear Diary

Jake wasn’t at all a nice guy. At all.
He told me he’d give me a really nice birthday present when it was my birthday. But he didn’t. He gave me a red dress. He was pretty, but… he tricked me. He told me that I owed him for it, and that he wanted… me.  I didn’t want to at first, but he told me that I didn’t like him that much, then. 

I let him do it, but today he told me that he’s breaking up. It was fun, he said, but I was no longer interesting. He just wanted to have sex. Asshole.

Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole AssholeAsshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole Asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Diary

Things are going well. Luna and I had a sleepover last night. It was awesome!
Dad got promoted at his work and now oversees like 10 people! He got a raise and, as a present, wanted to let me choose one thing I wanted. 

So I chose purple hair dye! 

He wasn’t all that enthusiastic, but he let me do it. He’ll get it from some Gaeans in about a week or so, because it’s not something that you just get. It’s made of some plant extract. I don’t know the specifics, but I’m so looking forward to it!

Dear Diary

My mom’s friend helped me find someone who would teach me pole dancing. It’s been four years since I first saw that woman in the bar. I made her promise not to tell my mom. I’ll be starting tomorrow where I have to normally practice my gymnastics. 

I’m pretty good at Gymnastics, so I think I should be able to do well. 

Oh! And this hair dye? Amazing! I <span class=""bb-u"">love</span> the purple colour!

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">13/8-2374</div>
Dear Diary

This. Isn’t. Easy.
Holding myself up on that pole, swinging around and all that stuff is <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> difficult. But it’s fun, and I’m looking forward to next week!

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">1/1-2375</div>
Dear Diary

What a new year. Didn’t go quite as I had planned. I’m getting fairly good at this whole poledancing thing, but mom and dad found out. They… weren’t happy. I managed to convince them that all I’m doing is just the same as I did during Gymnastics, just with an iron pole. It also makes me quite a bit stronger! 

Also, Luna has started nicknaming me the Purple Wonder. She saw me practicing a week or so ago and thought that all the stuff I did was “wonderful,” as she said. It’s because of my hair, of course (my dad got me another bottle. Should last for at least a year), and I quite like the name. It’s fitting. 

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">29/5-2377</div>
Dear Diary

I got the sniffles. Mom and Dad looked worried. They think it’s the Sickness. I don’t. It’s just a normal cold.

Right?

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">14/7-2377</div>
Dear Diary

THE SCHOOL BURNED DOWN!
We were practicing that “walking in the air” move when all of a sudden the building caught fire! No one knows what happened, but it just suddenly went up in flames! 

Luna got hurt. She has a burn on her belly now. It’s not pretty, but it’ll heal. Or so the healers say. I managed to get everyone else out in time, at least those who couldn’t run themselves. Also, I’m getting really good at it! My teacher’s saying I could get a work as a performer! 

Also, I don’t have sniffles anymore! Yay! I told mom and dad it wasn’t The Sickness!

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">15/7-2377</div>
Dear Diary

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck 
<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">FUCK!</div></div>

I woke up and noticed it. My… My eyes. I love the colour BUT MY EYES ARE PURPLE! Fuck. Fuck my life. Why did this have to happen? Mom and Dad are scared to death when I told them. At first they thought it was some hair dye I had gotten in my eyes, but when I told them that I had used the last of my dye last week they… they know. I know. 

I’m an Immortal. 

I don’t know what my element is, and I don’t care. I’m scared. What am I going to do? I… Isn’t there some rumours about that family? Maybe… No. It’s a bad idea. I shouldn’t do it.

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">17/7-2377</div>
Dear Diary

I did it. 

I had heard some rumours about the Castalia family having an Immortal in their family. I don’t know who exactly, but if they have an Immortal in the family then… then I should be able to work there. If I work for them, I should be able to hide myself among them. People wouldn’t dare confront me if they knew who I worked for. 

So I went to their casino hotel and got hired. I’m now a barmaid and dancer (occasional singer. I’m not the best but I can do well enough. I should start practicing). I’m starting work tomorrow. 

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">2/9-2377</div>
Dear Diary

Holy mother of fuck they pay a lot! I’m just a barmaid and a poledancer, but I get paid almost as much as my mom! I also got a make-up set! Lipstick, nail polish, even some eyeliner and eye shadow. It’s a very small set, but I don’t use a lot. But even then, some of it looks like it’s Old World stuff! Rare and freaking expensive! 

I love this job. Seriously. Most people are kind, and I’m not discriminated for being an Immortal! Even my parents have gone back to normal. They still look a little surprised at my purple eyes, but it’s only a little. 

Oh! And before I forget, Diary. I learned that I can control fire. I can even make it any colour I want! Heh. Guess which colour I prefer? 

P.S Speaking of colour, my hair hasn’t changed! Usually the colour of my hair fades out after about a month, but it’s been over three and the colour is still as vivid as when I first coloured it. Could it be another mutation from me becoming an Immortal?

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right"">30/8-2379</div>
Dear Diary

Umm… Oops? 
I have often said that I’m good at pole dancing and all, but, umm… Hehe. I broke my leg. I was trying a new move I came up with myself and fell. I landed on my leg and… well, let’s just say that I’m sure the entire Casino Hotel heard my scream. That hurt. 

Luckily there was a travelling healer in the city. She was an Immortal, too. Her eyes were really strange: Solid emerald colour with slitted pupils, and I even noticed that her canines were far longer than a normal person. 

Also. Her tits! Huuuuuuuge~! 
I only know ‘cause she stayed with me for a day and I saw her take off the bandages in the bathroom. Just… wow. I mean, I think mine are fairly big (32B and proud!) but hers were positively huge! I… Alright. I kinda want mine to be bigger, but still. Hot damn! 

<span class=""bb-s"">I wonder if there’s an Immortal who can change someone’s appearance.</span>

The Castalia Family is opening a new settlement in Russell Town. I was requested to join as one of the new employees, and was promised a raise. I need to say bye to my parents, but after that I’m off to Russell town! 

I’m honestly looking forward to it. A lot, actually. 

This is the last page of this diary. I need to get another one. Anyway, I should get packing. Thank you for always listening, Diary. I’ll see you again soon. For now, I need to go packing!

That, however, is all he knows of his biological family. Mere weeks after his birth, young Eric came down with a cold that no doctor in Russel City was able to cure. Eventually it passed, but not the way his parents had hoped. One night Logan was awoken by his crying infant and as he went to check on him he found that the babe's eyes had changed. They were red with a single vertical slit going down the middle. 

Fearing for their son's life, the couple brought him to the one place they felt he might be safe. Isolone, the Catholic center of the Dust. As a child Eric was raised along with the rest of the Immortal children brought to the Church. He was educated in everything from science, to mathematics, to theology by the various priests and teachers living in Isolone.

Immortals while accepted where not allowed to follow a political career. The lowest of religious (political) offices were denied to them due to the fact that they were not 'fully human.' The highest honor an Immortal could receive was to be a part of the elite order of Hollow hunters known as the Inquisitors, an all Immortal fighting force. While the Church allowed them to choose their own path in Isolonen society, most voluntarily joined. At the age of eleven Eric committed himself to the training and excelled in the use of firearms and tracking due to his advanced sight capabilities. 

As he grew older, Eric's abilities became more impressive as he worked to perfect them. The first ability he mastered was x-ray vision at the age of thirteen, though this was mostly due to teenage hormones than practicality in combat. As the years progressed he became known as the best shot in the Inquisitors, fully fledged members and  trainees alike. As he greatly came to excel with any fire arm the older Inquisitors gave to him, he became a cocky and flirtatious to women which he had begun collectively referring to as 'the ladies.'

At the age of 16 Eric fell in love with a girl named Kara. She was a year younger than him and was also in training to become an Inquisitor. She had basic telekinesis abilities and Eric always thought she was extremely beautiful. (Especially since he always knew what she had underneath.) He always enjoyed her fascination with eagles.

It took two years of showing off in training and endless flirtation but Eric eventually won her over. At the age of 18 he had his first long term relationship (though he did have multiple flings when he was younger) and it gave him extra confidence going into his trials. The trials are a series of tests given by Church Cardinals to test whether an Immortal is ready to enter into the ranks of the Inquisitors. They begin as simple survival tests such as building fires and culminate with the 'First Hunt. The task is as the name suggests, the Immortal must find and kill a level one Hollow to complete his training. Only then can they become an Immortal. 

Eric's First Hunt was problematic. He was assigned to kill a Sprinter, or a Hollow capable of moving at an extremely fast speed. He was given basic supplies and two weapons of his choice, one of which was the same sniper he uses today. It took him less than a day to find a Sprinter's trail (different types of Hollow have different footprints) but he could tell it was small. His cocky attitude got the best of him however and he wasn't satisfied with killing a level one as his first. It took him a little less than a week but he finally found the prints of a level 2 Sprinter dangerously close to Forsaken territory. 

Once he found it, he set up his sniper a little over a mile away from his target. It was bigger than he imagined and it had brought him deep into Forsaken territory but he was determined. He targeted its knee joints where the armor was weak to cripple its ability to run. Even though he placed every shot perfectly, the Sprinter was able to find him. In under four minutes the beast had reached him. The following battle was intense. It hit him out of his snipers nest and he basically ran in circles through old ruined structures while firing his revolver behind him. It took him two hours but he eventually killed the monster. Exhausted and wounded, Eric dragged its carcass for miles back to Isolone, during which time he was ambushed by a small squad of Forsaken raiders. 

When he returned home almost a month later, he learned that most of the Inquisitors believed he was dead. They were astonished by the beast he carried behind him but Kara was more concerned about his wounds. She scolded him for taking such a stupid risk and not returning sooner but was ultimately happy to see him. The Cardinals soon granted him full Inquisitor status however he was not part of the 'graduation ceremony' held in honor of the other candidates that had left at the same time he did. His class was then dubbed a successful one as only three of its recruits were killed in action.

Eric stayed in Isolone for another year to watch Kara complete her training. After her trials (which she completed much faster than him albeit with a less impressive kill) the two traveled throughout the Dust taking jobs to kill Hollow in the name of the Church. After a year, Eric proposed and the two became wed in the capitol building of Isolone, The Cathedral. 20 years old and married, Eric was as happy as one could be in the modern world.

For four years the couple hunted Hollow together and even took mercenary protection and bounty hunting jobs. They each racked up a decent number of Hollow kills, Eric with 13 and Kara with 8. 

All good things come to an end however. While tracking level 3 Spitter (shoots acid) the couple was ambushed by a number of Forsaken slavers. The fight lasted a very long time but eventually Eric was knocked unconscious by a Forsaken who he believed was an Immortal with enhanced strength. (That's his story anyway) When he woke up Kara was gone. 

It took him a year to track down the gang that had attacked him. They had brought his wife to a small camp near the Diversum border. He killed every guard in the camp from over a mile away, to this day he has never shot as impressively. When he reached the camp he freed all of the slaves from their pins. Most didn't know what to do with their freedom. Eventually he found Kara, she was severely wounded and dying. Her last word to him before she was gone was, “you're like an eagle of old America Eric, bringing freedom to these people.” Even in death she was fascinated with the creatures. He took the Eagle as his symbol and tattooed it to the left side of his chest.

For a year he simply worked as an Inquisitor. With time he was able to overcome his grief and moved to Russel City in hopes of maybe finding his parents. After a few months he gave up and began taking jobs from the local Church office. His kill count is now up to 18.</div></div>
<font color=""#ed1c24""><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center"">Gear</div></div></font>
Weapons:<ul style=""white-space: normal;"">*note: Eric paints all of his weapons red
<li><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">Modified Barrett M99B</span></font>: A popular American bolt-action sniper rifle from before the Fall which came into circulation a few years before the event. It is an upgraded version of the M98B that is lighter in weight and uses ammunition with higher armor piercing capabilities. Outfitted with a specifically modified scope that doubles Eric's already impressive sight capabilities. Complete with extended magazines to hold 10 rounds and a detachable silencer. (The silencer muffles sound but lowers damage.)</li><li><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">9mm pistol</span></font>: Since the M99B is his primary weapon, Eric needed another firearm to serve in closer engagements. There is nothing special about his pistol except he uses special armor piercing rounds for use against the hollow. Magazines hold up to 12 bullets.</li><li><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">Tactical Combat Knife</span></font>: Used mostly for opening canned foods, this combat knife is nothing more than a precaution. Eric feels that if his enemy got this close to him he failed anyway. A normal combat knife with no special modifications.</li></ul>

Armor: Eric wears an armor made up of individually removable and reinforced leather padding on top of everyday clothing. The leather padding can be easily removed in case of contact with any type of harmful acid or poison.  He also wears a hood to cover his head from dust and sand from the wasteland and to keep his head cool. Other than that he doesn't wear very protective armor as he prefers to stay far from his enemies. His armor could be completely bypassed by a direct hit from either a bullet or a blade.

Ammunition: <ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Dirty rounds (for use against humans): 3 9mm magazines for his pistol (36) and 4 magazines of .338 for his sniper (40)</li><li>High Grade Rounds (for use against hollow): 2 military grade armor piercing 9mm magazines for his pistol (24) and 3 military grade armor piercing .338 magazines laced with poison for his sniper (30)</li><li>Heavy Ammunition: none</li></ul>
Backpack: Medkit with various anti-venom agents, 4x water bottles, single filled canteen, 2 weeks of food provisions, duct tape, small one person tent, tracking kit, fire starter, lockpick kit, thermal sleeping bag, sniper sling

Belt pouches: Compass, matches, ammunition, spare magazines, pistol, combat knife

<span class=""bb-b"">Manifested Phenomena</span>: <font color=""#ed1c24"">sight/vision</font>

Unique Abilities:
<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-b"">Enhanced Sight</span></font>: Eric's sight has been enhanced to an incredible degree. He is able to see with exacting detail anything within a five mile radius as if it were directly in front of him. He is able to focus his eyes to control how far and how clear he sees objects. This makes him extremely proficient as a sniper as he can kill a man from miles away as if they were standing two feet away from him. 
<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-b"">The All Seeing Eyes</span></font>: Eric is able to manipulate the way in which his eyes observe objects. Depending on how he focuses his eyes he can see through any substance from skin, to clothing, to lead as long as the object he is viewing is within ten feet. (A power he likes to abuse) He also has natural night and thermal vision which allows him to see in pitch-black darkness normally and spot heat signatures of both man and beast. 

Strengths:
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">I Can't Miss</font></span>: Eric is able to hit virtually any target from any distance with any angle. He is also able, through training and study, to target specific weak points in the armor of a Hollow to pierce its skin and bring it down quick and efficiently. Because of his sight he is a proficient shot with any fire arm. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">Mister Coordinated</font></span>: Eric's hand eye coordination is almost flawless. He can catch, throw, shoot, and dodge almost anything with as little as a reflection. This also gives advanced agility allowing him to flee from a hollow or danger whenever necessary.
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">Let's Get Out Of Here</font></span>: Due to the intense nature of his profession, Eric is often fleeing for his life. He has become extremely fit and is able to sustain a sprint for a long time. Eric has very high endurance when his adrenaline is pumping. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">I'll Find It For Ya</font></span>: Eric is an extremely gifted tracker. Whether he is tracking Hollow or people he is able to find it. His sight also allows him to examine his target's path in ways normal people would never think possible. 

Weaknesses: 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#9e0039"">Stay Over There</font></span>: Because of his reliance on fire arms, Eric is not very proficient in close quarters combat. If someone or something gets to close to him he tends to run to spread the distance and take his enemy out from afar. While he can handle himself in close situations against normal people, he tends to lose against those trained in hand to hand combat. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#9e0039"">Did I Hear What</font></span>: Eric's enhanced sight has caused him to focus more on what he can see. While his other sense are not impaired, he tends to let his vision dictate his actions. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#9e0039"">Stay Away From The Light</font></span>: Eric's eyes have become extremely sensitive. Intensely bright explosions or flashbangs have the tendency to blind him for a short amount of time depending on the proximity.</div>"

His locks are quickly graying and are often in a mottled mess, his face hasn't seen a razor is years, and his dark skin is becoming wrinkly and saggy. Look past that, though, and it's easy to see vestiges of a former warrior- the man is tall, still built like a bull and is covered in scars and stitches. The muscles may not work like they used to, but they're still there. <br/><br/>Due to being an Immortal, Arcus' eyes are an oddity, teal in color with pupils that are shaped like teardrops. They've lost the spark he had when he was with the Forsaken, the bloodthirsty look in them replaced with such things as caring or even sorrow and pity. Some say he looks at other the way a father would his child. <br/><br/>The former Forsaken dresses as well as any other wanderer can, and that means layers of loose clothing for the heat and dust underneath some armor for protection against more worldly things. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightcyan"">Background</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">Residence:</font></span> Being offered hospitality in Fairbury <br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">Profession:</font></span> Wanderer; Philosopher; Vigilante<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">Aligned Faction:</font></span> None; formerly Forsaken<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">Relatives:</font></span> <ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Virn Brunswick - Father - Deceased</li><li>Luella Brunswick - Mother - Deceased</li><li>Caden Brunswick - Brother - Deceased</li><li>Tilli DeLoraine - Sister - Alive and married to Hector DeLoraine.

He was born only to one parent, however, as his father, Virn, had been killed in arena combat over the fact that Arcus was an illegitimate son. Arcus' mother's <span class=""bb-i"">other</span> husband was sick and dying, but wasn't dead yet. From the time he was able to hold a stick he was being trained in combat, much like the other Forsaken. It was quickly apparent that Arcus was a wrathful child- he was unnaturally strong and quick for his young age, and in combat he was cunning and tough.   <br/><br/>When Arcus turned ten, his mother celebrated his first decade by rewarding the small boy with a small rabbit to kill. He delighted in hearing its tiny bones crack and bend under his might, and listening to the small thing squeal and squirm. Just after this ""celebration"" his mother told him they were moving, but not to where or why. On the road, Arcus noticed his mother seemed afraid and hurried. They eventually arrived at Forbes- having traveled through Locke and Kingsley.<br/> <br/>In his twelfth year Arcus became a brother to a younger sister and a younger brother; their names were Tilli and Caden, respectively. He became protective of them both, taking time away from training to tend to any of their needs and checking in on them regularly. One year later, at thirteen, Arcus experienced his first man-to-man combat, being thrown into the infamous Forbes Arena over something his mother had done but blamed <span class=""bb-i"">him</span> for. He remembers his opponent well- a tall, fair haired boy with few teeth and missing half an ear. He looked sickly, but he fought well. The fight lasted for quite some time- being his first outing, Arcus wasn't as confident as the other boy and fought very defensively, it was only due to his exquisite stamina that the other boy tired out before he did and Arcus was able to finish him off with only a few well placed blows. This was the childhood Arcus was blessed with- arena combat and mentoring his siblings while being trained, himself.<br/><br/>Flash forward a few years, when Arcus has matured and is at the spry age of twenty-one. It was in this year that Arcus discovered he was an Immortal. His mother had committed some crime again, only this time wriggled out of it by blaming Caden as Arcus had been absent, just returning the day after her accusation. Caden was only nine, but was sent to the Arena, anyway, and by the time Arcus arrived it was too late to try and take his place. He dreadfully watched and screamed and yelled as he watched his training go to waste- Caden was struck down by his opponent, dead before he hit the sands. Time almost seemed to slow down as he watched the quarterstaff crack his younger brother's skull. A rage now garnered in his belly, he stormed into his mother's home, and awoke from a daze a few hours later- apparently, in his fit, he had killed his own mother for sending Caden into the ring. His reaction was so strong and fast that time sped by, and he couldn't remember the event. He was sent to the Arena- as per usual- for his murder, but his opponent was easy enough for Arcus to defeat. If you were a good warrior, even murder was within your reach among the Forsaken.<br/><br/>Two years later and we see Arcus serving the Legion- his skills as a natural warrior being put to use. More than that, his Immortalis- he's discovered that he can speed up and slow down things already in motion, no doubt a product of his equal fits of speedy rage and slugging grief. He has proven his strength and skill numerous times, and had been given the nickname 'Warlord' by those that fought alongside him. Arcus would fight and form relationships among the Legion for fourteen years, before his paranoia of betrayal for a title forced him to settle down and take a break from battle, his exemplary service title garnering much respect among the Forsaken. The nickname of 'Warlord' has stuck. <br/><br/>The veteran lives a fairly peaceful life mentoring younger pupils from his home in Forbes and frequenting the arena as a spectator. However, when he is forty five years of age he is called upon once again, his name and record preceding him. He accepts, albeit a bit reluctantly, but is given a second wind of duty and nationalism from battle and combat once again. His muscles tired easily and didn't quite work like they used to, but he was still a lethally skilled combatant at short ranges and in short bursts. He continues serving the Legion as both a warrior and adviser for another five years- when he is killed in battle.<br/><br/>At least, he was thought dead. He was hit in the lower left abdominal region by a rather large slug made from animal carcass. He had been presumed dead and left for the carrion, but it would take more than a lucky shot to bring down Warlord. His teal eyes opened; his breathing desperate to grasp any hint of life left in him. In his darkest moment, Arcus finds a feeling of peace and serenity- feelings of comfort rife with death that are so profound he remembers them to this day; in fact, it is this exact moment that he credits with the changed man he's become today. He realizes the beauty in creating life rather than take it; ironic, perhaps, as he lay there a dying renowned warrior. <br/><br/>He survives the wound, and is able to stand, but even an unskilled scavenger could tell him the wound was infected- a factor of the animal carcass round, no doubt. The pain was almost unbearable, but Arcus managed to hobble back to Forbes nearly on all fours. He was given medical attention and the wound was staunched, but the infection remained. The medical staff presumed him lucky if he made it to sixty. <br/><br/>And so Arcus left Forbes, no longer considering himself Forsaken, but his records and past an ill-fated reminder of who he used to be. He is determined to leave Dust a better place than he helped create it- but just how he does that, he's quite unsure. He's spent the past few years wandering and detailing his thoughts and experiences; many of these can be found in his journal, which he keeps nearby at all times. Recently, he caught a caravan with an armed contingent of guards outside Fairsbury and was requested help, for he still had the gait of a strong warrior, despite his old wound. In return, the caravan leader offered him a place of respite in Fairsbury, and reassured him it was a beautiful sight to have the privilege to see, considering all the green.<br/><br/>Arcus accepted, travelling with the guards into the ruins, where they encountered fierce resistance by the ""beautiful sights"" themselves. He and the other guards were successful in protecting the caravan, however, and it is in Fairbury that he now resides- albeit temporarily, for Arcus has grown fond of wandering.</div></div><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">Weapons:</font></span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00a651"">Brute</font></span>: an old sledgehammer that also has a saw-blade attached to the end opposite the hammer; because why not?

The faster something is travelling the heavier it also ""feels"", so he can't speed up larger and heavier objects as much as he could smaller objects. He cannot use this to throw or push objects, simply make objects already moving to move faster. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00aeef"">Decelerate</font></span>: In the same vein, Arcus can decelerate objects, though it works in a somewhat opposite fashion; smaller, faster objects in motion are much more difficult to decelerate than larger, slower objects. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00a651"">Strengths:</font></span> <br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00a651"">Bravado</font></span>: Having lived the life of a warrior almost from birth, Arcus is no stranger to facing death. Even now, with his infected wound, he has learned to accept his fate. Among the Forsaken, cowards were not treated well. Arcus was known for being exceptionally brave and is good at swallowing fear and doubt to keep his mind clear at the tasks at hand.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00a651"">Intimidating</font></span>: From his size, strength, and scars, Arcus is an intimidating figure to behold. It's this stature that he relies upon in most negotiations- luckily for him, Arcus is far from all talk, however.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Weaknesses:</font></span><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Wounded</font></span>: Arcus, plain and simple, is dying. He feels his infection worsening every few days (he swears it's moving towards his heart), and his wound will occasionally erupt into brief flashes of extreme physical pain- one of the only things that seems to hurt Arcus anymore. But that's not the only wound Arcus has suffered- the man is quite emotionally distraught. He watched his brother get killed before killing his own mother. He's taken dozens of lives himself. These thoughts tend to keep a broken Arcus up at night- though in social situations, he does well to hide them, and acts normally, genuinely enjoying companionship and conversation.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Only Gettin' Older</font></span>: While Arcus is an incredulously strong fighter, he tires easily. His bulky old muscles don't work like they used to, but that doesn't make him weak. Arcus' tactic has long been to fight very defensively to tire his opponent, then go in for one or two big hits to end it all. At his age, one or two hits is all he's got energy for, anyway. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Forsaken</font></span>: No matter how hard he tries to forget it, Arcus was a member of the Forsaken. Though he hides it moderately well behind well-spun lies and fake monikers, occasionally there will be someone who sees through all of that, and brings upon Arcus all the social stigmas being a former member of the Forsaken could have.</div>"

His father, Harry, suffered from a neurological disorder that resulted in him experiencing extreme pain from exertion, meaning that he couldn't work much.  He would typically go to work at the smelter, but it didn't exactly pay much, and given that he couldn't work long hours, it paid even less.  His mother, Lisa, hardly found the time to work since she basically took care of their home one part of the day, and took care of Harry the next.  They could barely afford to stay afloat, but eventually Lisa got an idea.  She talked it over with Harry a bit, and then they decided to have a child.<br/><br/>10 months later, James was born but at that point, their funds were completely drained.  Still, Lisa and Harry had a plan.  After roughly six more months of just barely scraping by, a band of slavers came through.  Lisa and Harry knew that they would pay good money for a healthy infant, one that they could easily mold into a hard-working grunt.  That was their plan, after all, to sell James off at the nearest opportunity.  They took their newfound money and decided to move to Russel City, where they thought they would find a better life.  Unfortunately for them, they were both murdered by some of the other Dead-End residents who didn't take too kindly to them having a kid for the sole purpose of selling him off.<br/><br/>James was raised in dismal conditions by the slavers until he was about six, at which point they put him straight to work.  Of course, him still being pretty young, he couldn't do much more than run errands.  Still, even with his relatively ""easy"" job, he would often make small mistakes that earned him either a disciplinary punch, or a day-long time out in a pitch black vault.  James started to build a resentment towards his masters, which earned him even more disciplinary measures, until he was eventually told to fight another child of roughly equal age.  He got a dislocated shoulder from the fight, along with a broken nose, several bruises, and a couple of shallow cuts.  He didn't even put up a fight.<br/><br/>This pattern continued until James effectively broke and completely surrendered himself.  It took him roughly three months to get to that point.  The authoritarianism and violence became the status-quo.  Those who disobeyed were whipped, and those who tried to escape were executed.  James didn't want to be tortured or killed.  James didn't want anything.  He became an empty shell of a person.  He disconnected himself from everything and just did what he was told.<br/><br/>Six years and two trades later, James is constantly referred to as one of the best-behaved slaves ever.  He hasn't questioned any of his masters in years, and is constantly satisfying his masters in whatever way possible.  He also hasn't spoken in years, which, while it is advantageous to him in many ways, it is concerning to everyone else.  Even some of his masters became concerned, though more in the sense that they were concerned James would snap, or become completely catatonic and useless.  Unbeknownst to anyone else, James actually regained his lucidity around this point, though his attitude is still as withdrawn as ever.<br/><br/>Two years later, at the age of 14, James was going to be at the next trade, along with several of the other slaves under his master's ownership.  His master spent some time with James, telling him exactly how to behave, not like he didn't already know.  He wordlessly nodded anyways.  At the trade, he was dressed in the best garb his master would put together for a slave.  He was paraded under his title of ""The Quiet One"" and was even recognized by some of the other traders.  At one point, James noticed something.  A little girl, a few years younger than him, also at the trade.  She never noticed him, but he noticed her.  The abject despair and misery in her eyes spoke volumes, but even more jarring was the realization that James hadn't seen a single other child slave in over 5 years.  What happened to those whom he was with before?  That's right, they all died, either at the hands of their masters or from the results of severe neglect.<br/><br/>At that thought, James felt a surge of newfound hatred and rebellion.  He had found a purpose.  He was done with this shit.  He was going to get out, and then he was going to make the slavers pay for what they've done.  But, as much as he might have wanted to, he knew he couldn't just go at it, that was a good way to get killed.  He wasn't going to out-brute them, but he could outsmart them.  They still thought he was a complacent little drone, and he would use that to his advantage in the coming weeks.<br/><br/>He was sold to another master during the trade.  That put a hold on his plans, since he was now in unfamiliar territory, but it ended up working to his advantage.  His new master had fewer guards.  Not by much, but still fewer.  Once James had been in service at this place for a couple of weeks and had an idea of where things were and how things worked, he began to devise a plan.  He kept up his facade for long enough for his master to warm up to the fact that he was the best-behaved slave of the lot, and he was eventually given a spot of privilege as his master's personal slave.  He learned even more about the grounds in this time, along with several places one could hide, and a couple of other potential escape routes.<br/><br/>After another two weeks of plotting, James finally came up with two solid courses of action, though he also began to run into trouble at this point.  He noticed that one of the guards would tend to eyeball James fairly often.  He didn't realize it, but the guard had been under the employment of another master that previously owned James.  He had recognized him, and he picked up on some slight changes in James' behavior, and the way he held himself.  Unfortunately, it would be his downfall, and when James had finally launched himself into action, they were prepared.<br/><br/>He was caught shortly after he initiated his plan, and while under normal circumstances he would have been executed, his master took his track record into account and instead sentenced him to a week's worth of torture, starting with a lashing in front of every other slave.  His fiery rage caught up with him, and he cursed and threatened and verbally abused his captors in between his screams of pain, which resulted in more lashes.  At one point, he had implored his fellow slaves to rise up and do something, that the captors couldn't take on a mass rebellion.  He eventually passed out from the pain, and for trying to incite a rebellion his sentence was changed to a public execution, along with a couple of slaves who had taken his words to heart.  The aforementioned slaves were executed a day later, but James still had a week of torture to endure before his final day.<br/><br/>It was at this point that he came down with a cold, though this, of course, didn't stop the floggings.  He would wake up to either a kick in the ribs, a surprise waterboarding, or any other number of forms of torture, and go to sleep exhausted and in complete pain, but not broken.  He began plotting another escape, though this time there would be blood.  His sickness passed on the day before his execution, and it was at this time that James would get out.  He had spent the entire week weakening the anchoring points on his shackles, and he was confident a good yank would make at least one of them break.<br/><br/>That morning, James was met by a lone guard.  He was ready for him, and as soon as the guard went to put on a tighter pair of shackles, James broke one of his arm shackles out of the wall and hit the guard hard enough to knock him unconscious.  It took a few tries, but he managed to get the other arm shackle off, which gave him enough room to get the keys from the guard and free his legs.  He then took a moment to crush the guard's windpipe under his foot, then relieve him of his clothes and weapons.  By the end of the day, there would be exactly seventeen dead guards, three dead assistants, two hundred twenty four newly-freed slaves, and a traumatized master who would soon be mauled by said slaves.  James slipped out while the others were getting their fill and began stocking up on supplies for his journey.  He could still hear his former master screaming in pain as he walked away.  Neither he nor anyone else noticed his eyes change color, nor the thin slits that his pupils became.<br/><br/>He eventually found his way to Russel City, where he sought medical treatment, which is when he discovered his inexplicable eye mutation.  After someone explained what it meant for him, and he was released from the hospital he was at, he began to train and equip himself for a brutal assault on the slavers.  Though first, he had to learn what these weird symbols written in these ""books"" mean.  Before that, he would need to make a livelihood, and the easiest way to do that was to join a scavenging crew.  The selection process was a piece of cake to James, who had been physically conditioned for most of his life, and he was also, oddly enough, one of the most efficient scavengers in his crew.  He would always get bonuses from several of his finds, though he felt it was sort of unfair to the others.  Still, he needed the money.<br/><br/>It took him a couple of years, but finally, at the age of 16, James could read, although somewhat roughly.  He realized that he never had a last name, and thus assumed the surname ""Knight"" at that point.  It was also at this point that he began to study certain types of weapons, particularly firearms.  He gained an understanding of how some of the guns of old worked, specifically the infamous Russian AK-47 design, with it's several updates and permutations.  He became so engrossed by it's simple design that he decided to buy one, a relatively new variant called the AKS-74.  He got it in somewhat rough condition, but with his knowledge of how it worked, and some consultation from a machinist, he got the rifle in good working order with a few modifications and a bit of elbow grease.  With his self-teaching nearing a close, he decided to get a tattoo of a wolf to signify the vengeance he would soon wreak.<br/><br/>After roughly a year of working, training, and tuning his AK, James started to lose sight of his vendetta, and even started to force his previous memories from his head, even though some of it was missing to begin with.  His lust for vengeance was becoming less and less tangible as he became more integrated with an actual society.  While he didn't deny that life was still hard, and sometimes dangerous, he shifted his focus from wanting to go back and finish what he had planned on doing to simply putting it behind him and moving on.  While it allowed him to do just that, it would take a toll on his psyche.<br/><br/>After building up some funds, James decided to move to Aspin to take advantage of the advanced education opportunities there and look into becoming a psychologist.  This had nothing to do with his own past, he simply gained a curiosity for the way the human mind works.  To help fund his continued education, James took advantage of his newfound ability and became an escort for The Gaens' expeditionary teams.  He learned several things rather quickly at this point, and it took a bit of effort to keep the circumstantial knowledge that he gained from his various escortees from getting mixed up with his actual studies.<br/><br/>Roughly a year after moving to Aspin, he began to feel the psychological effects of having suppressed his memories of his past, which manifested themselves in occasional extreme fits of paranoia and social withdrawal, one of which prompted him to compulsively buy a CZ-75 pistol.  He had failed to properly inspect it and missed the damaged ejector; something he would have picked up on had he been stable at the time.  He never sought help or consulted anyone about it, because somewhere in the back of his mind he knew that it meant recounting his traumatic past.  His suppression of his memories as a slave caused all the rage and hatred he had previously felt towards the slavers to convert fully to terror and paranoia, and worse yet James refused to believe it.<br/><br/>Though, on the other hand, trying to put the past behind him has made James into a confident optimist for the most part, and at the age of 25 he graduated with a certificate in psychology.  With all that said and done, James decided to return to Russel City in search of a job in his new field, or if all else failed, reunite with his old scavenging squad.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Weapons:</font></span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://rus.mil.pl/forum/uploads/sprzet_aks74n/aks-74_vfc_01.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">AKS-74</a></span>: An older model Soviet AKS-74.

His improper diet has led to malnourishment, which keeps him looking chronically ill even if ignoring how his hair has fallen out or the dark patches under his eyes. While he can't know how he looks, Ivan understands it's anything but pretty and very rarely takes off his hood. He rarely takes anything off for that mater; having one set of clothing that he wears like a second skin and it's kept 'clean' by the sand and dirt constantly getting everywhere.<br/><br/>Ivan is a rather large man, and despite his somewhat sickly looks is in fairly good physical condition. To go with his height he's also quite heavy set, with a somewhat imbalanced combination of fat and muscle that gives him the physique of a long ago retired rugby player. If it weren't for his nomadic lifestyle he'd be quite unfit, though days on end of trudging through the desert with a heavy pack keep him considerably strong underneath his layer of flab. A large amount of his strength comes from knowing how to throw his weight around though, and his arms are comparably weak to the rest of him.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightcyan"">Background</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Residence:</span> Homeless<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Profession:</span> N/A<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Aligned Faction:</span> N/A<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Relatives:</span> Most likely deceased<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Ivan had been born in a shanty town west of the city now known as Ironhold, the small group of settlers being one of many that traveled between towns looking for work either in construction or labouring. It was a poor setting to be brought up in, with questionable morals with the most notable of which being their skewed view on religion. Life there was very binary for most, with the standard of living being only a little better than 'surviving'. They ate what they found, wore what other people got rid of, and found joy in the simpler aspects of managing to get by in the world. Ivan hadn't really questioned such things, and as he grew older picked up what minimal responsibilities there were to take care of here and there. Music and stories were their only form of culture, many of these tales modeled after the crude understanding of the great beings that controlled the world around them.<br/><br/>Ivan's life was on track to soon get a job laying bricks or mining ore, following after those he lived with up until some time after turning fifteen when he contracted 'The Sickness'. People where he lived knew of the disease but had poor knowledge on it, associating it with evil deities and knowing that as soon as the dark circles appeared the issue had to be dealt with.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for Ivan, 'dealing with it' was a public display of burning the infected at the stake. Deciding that would not be his fate, Ivan ran off the day his eyes grew shadowed, taking all he could with no plan other than to escape being burned alive and possibly beheaded. In the back of his mind he was scared of what might be next for him, as there was good reason people that got sick were killed like they were, but he felt healthy enough and decided a chance was better than nothing. <br/><br/>The boy was ill prepared though, and his fear had made him overlook the dangers of the desert like the sandstorm that struck only a day after he left. He was in pain, hands pawing at the hot sand while his gut twisted and his head pounded. He couldn't see anything, his sight fading as the storm picked up and blindness set in. Ivan was in tears as he felt his end drawing nearer, and prayed for death to claim him quickly. <br/><br/>No such thing happened though. The next morning, Ivan awoke covered in sand and began to panic. Just as soon as he wished it, like a giant fish, the desert spat him out from what must have been seven feet underground. Still panicking, Ivan looked around with his no longer working eyes, somehow able to see everything represented in a strange outline before him. All he could see was sand, the gritty substance being the only thing his eyes could recognize and leaving the rest of the world invisible. He'd somehow survived the Sickness, though not without his loses, and was left alone in a world he knew little about.<br/><br/>Over the years, Ivan learned of how he'd survived his escape and the status of 'Immortal' that came with it. Though he could feel a connection to all earth and rock, the now young man learned he was limited by how he could only shift materials loose enough to move his hands through which explained his incident in the desert those years ago. It didn't take long for him to realize people could catch on from something wrong with his eyes, and that plus the scarred on sickness on his face was enough reason for Ivan to hide his face which eventually it led to him dawning the hood he has now become so attached to. In an attempt to make his life easier, Ivan had forgotten his surname, decided to keep moving, and try to find joy in what he could such as his chance to learn about the world beyond his home. So he traveled, from place to place, preforming on the streets for money when he needed to buy food and delighting in any company he could find. He'd become quite the skilled flute player, and has learned that his stories entertain a select few who chose to listen to him. Along the way he became more adapt at this way of life, using his abilities to move through the desert and eventually acquiring his somewhat unique weapon to use for quick escapes. People weren't always that happy if they learned he was an immortal, and if they already knew there was no point in trying to make a sneaky exit; only a quick one would do. The rocket launcher always assured there'd be at least some material for him to work with in such cases.<br/><br/>In his pursuit of happiness, Ivan spent his money on whatever interested him and after gaining an interest in alcohol it acted as a gateway for more potent substances. Uneducated on the subject, Ivan knew only that the sensations these things brought were enjoyable and actively pursues them any chance he gets with no awareness to how it affects his health. A few years of living like this had somewhat skewed Ivan's perception of the world, and his focus became on the peace he found simply in existence with minimal care taken towards himself. In his opinion Ivan sees himself as enlightened; glad he hasn't confined himself to one place and is free to partake in what he wishes when he can. So he wanders, his head often in another place as he moves from city to city only so he can make enough money for more food and whatever 'sweet treasures' he can obtain.</div></div><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Rocket Launcher</span>: Ivan refers to this as his 'dust kicker', and it's use isn't strictly offensive.

In this form, his eyes’ sclera are a lightish grey. He could probably conceal his immortality without any effort whatsoever if this was his only eye mutation, but there is an undeniable contrast created by his irises: they are completely white, and he lacks some human features entirely, such as defined lips. Everything looks as though it's part of a ""blank slate"".<br/><br/>When in private, he generally maintains appearance before he gained his powers: that of a 5’10 male with brown hair, albeit with a few... “adjustments” to make himself seem more attractive. When performing alongside Archie, he mimics his brother’s appearance entirely so that they can pass as twins and fulfill one of their prized gimmicks.<br/><br/>In public, those who don’t know Cyrus very well will find it unusual to see him wear the same face twice. He changes his appearance as often as someone else might change their clothes... however sparse spare clothes may be in Dust.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightcyan"">Background</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Residence:</span> Nomadic<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Profession:</span> Street performer and actor<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Aligned Faction:</span> Independent<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Relatives:</span> Cyrus has two half-siblings, both by different fathers.

His every movement is calculated, cautious and graceful, harkening back to his background as a dancer and experienced swordsman.<br/><br/>Whereas Cyrus has a tendency to fall back upon his immortal powers to compensate for his shortcomings, Archie has honed his various skills to perfection. He knows precisely what he is great at (swordplay, dancing, acrobatics and mustache management), what he is average at (cooking and swimming) and what he is desperately terrible at (glassworking, Horseshoes, and biochemical engineering). Far more cautious than his brother, he has no misconceptions about his own mortality. Further unlike his brother, he finds comfort in the philosophy of the Northern Aqueons, and uses the teachings of the new-age religion as a means to better his mind and body. Though he holds honour in high regard, he is not necessarily bound by the same restrictions due to his being cut off from more zealous practitioners of the faith.</div></div><br/><br/>Though not Cyrus’ family persay, Archie’s biological father Rico is the closest thing to a paternal figure that any of the three children have ever had. He is old enough to be Archie’s grandfather and lives in Serenity. Unlike the other two children’s fathers, however, Rico was a repeat customer, and even spent some of his off-time traveling around with his Mary.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Cyrus was born a freeman, the son of a performance artist and contortionist going by the stagename <span class=""bb-i"">Mary the Magnificent</span>. She traveled alongside a caravan, a “circus” of sorts, entertaining and occasionally even “entertaining” various patrons as they went from town to town as wandering street performers. This special “entertaining” resulted in a daughter and two sons, all from different fathers. There was the eldest and only girl, Essie, the middle child, Cyrus, and the youngest, Archibald. These three grew up with more than a healthy dose of idealism, learning about human nature from plays and books which portrayed the world in black and white, a never-ending struggle of good against evil. They were raised among unusual and wonderful people: thespians, singers, and even exotic dancers and prostitutes. None were quite so skilled as Mary, however, who seemed to master every craft she tried. Once they were old enough, Mary began to train them in the arts as well, praising it as a selfless and kind way to bring joy to a selfish and unkind world.<br/><br/>Essie was a petite girl who took after her mother, and eventually began learning the same nigh-unbelievable contortion tricks. Cyrus, on the other hand, was more of a straight-up showman, with a booming voice and incredible stage-presence. All of Mary’s children had charisma, but Cyrus simply <span class=""bb-i"">oozed</span> it, and was able to win over a crowd with words alone. This translated into unmatched acting and comedic skill. Archie, on the other hand, was a man of action. He spoke few words, but everything he said was backed by action. He was obscenely swift on his feet; a perfect physical specimen whose acrobatics were a phenomenal sight to behold, and who could wield a fencing blade as well as he could dance.<br/><br/>As often is in Dust, their lives took a turn for the worst as a result of a completely random event which they couldn’t control. Traveling through Forsaken territory was generally dangerous, but they had taken a trip to Forbes once before to trade wares and entertain in the capital city. However, after entertaining (and “entertaining”) a group of three legionnaires, they found themselves unsatisfied by her performance and demanding a refund, despite not having paid a dime. In their rage, they killed her and sold her three children to be slaves in Forbes for easy profit. Such is life among the Forsaken.<br/><br/>Essie was sixteen when the trio were captured, her body blossoming into womanhood. Supposedly, she was sold to the king himself, who had been captivated by her beauty. Cyrus and Archie, on the other hand, were both sold to a cruel slave fighter named Luther. They were beaten daily, deprived of food and water to “strengthen their resolve”, and were forced into the fighting arenas at fourteen and twelve years old respectively, and though Archie showed considerable skill early on, Cyrus was placed up against a much more experienced opponent in his first fight. Each blow from his opponent’s club found its mark, shattering the bones in Cyrus’ arms and kneecaps. He should have accepted death then and there, but instead, he did the unthinkable. He begged for mercy, in front of a crowd of Forsaken soldiers screaming for blood. He was dragged from the arena, back to Luther’s slave pen, where he was subject to the worst torment of his life as punishment for weakness, an experience he now refers to as “Nine Hours of Hell”.<br/><br/>Using the ropes tied to Cyrus’ hands and feet, Luther dragged him into some sort of underground dungeon and strapped him into iron manacles to bind him to the wall. It was obvious that Luther sought to torture him to death, even going so far as to promise that Cyrus’ last words would be proclaiming Luther to be his one and true master. First came the whippings, which, though brutal, were no more painful than their usual “punishments”. And so, knowing that his death would come one way or the other, Cyrus began to mock Luther, even as he was bound to the wall behind him by ropes and chains. And so, Luther moved onto stage two of his torture plan, using his knife to pry chunks of flesh off of Cyrus’ body. Even Cyrus’ screams of agony were insults, all directed towards the “fat, greedy fuck” who stood before him. Even as Luther took the knife to Cyrus’ fingers, his manhood, and eventually his face, the slave still laughed, until Luther cut the tongue from his mouth, filling it with blood. Luther held a mirror up to Cyrus’ face as he began to cleave off his cheeks, his nose, his forehead, until no flesh remained. He should have died long before this brutal process was complete, yet somehow, he remained in the world of the living. When the flesh had been completely stripped from his face, and Cyrus was staring at what was left of his face and body in a mirror that was placed cruelly across the room from him, his life began to flash before his eyes: all the parts he’d played, all the people he’d influenced and who had influenced him along the way... he regretted how short it truly was, in those brief moments of clarity between the unending pain. That was, until a voice spoke to him from deep within. Its message was faint, but clear, and steadily grew in volume and power...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“You will live, my child,”</span> A smooth, sultry voice echoed from somewhere in the deepest, darkest part of his mind.<br/><br/>At first, he attempted to argue with this voice, even as he felt the pain began to subside as he drifted into a strange, dreamlike state. <span class=""bb-i"">“No, my sweet angel of death, I am clearly dying...”</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”’Angel of death’?”</span> The voice asked, seeming rather shocked, <span class=""bb-i"">”Well I must say, I’m actually quite flattered... You do <span class=""bb-b"">want</span> to live though, yes?”</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“Yeah, that’d be nice...”</span> Perhaps if he lived, he could free himself and his siblings from the chains that bound them and start a new troupe. He had always dreamed of grandeur and glory, which he couldn’t attain if he was dead.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“You will play many parts, Cyrus,”</span> his sweet angel of death said, <span class=""bb-i"">“But so many others have played a corpse before you. Now open your eyes, Cyrus... and rise anew.”</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“You’re a real drama queen, eh?”</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“Look whose talking,”</span> this angel no longer sounded like an angel; more like an angry, chastising mother. <span class=""bb-i"">”Now motherfucking RISE! Like a phoenix... or a loaf of bread in an oven or some shit.”</span><br/><br/>And so, Cyrus awoke once more, still gazing at himself in the mirror. He had died... or had he? As he looked in the mirror, he noticed his face and other various bits had begun to regenerate, albeit in a sickeningly pale shade. His visage, a mess of bone and muscle moments ago, was intact, though it lacked the distinct features he once had, instead resembling what a potter’s rendition of a human head might look like: grey, without defined lips or eyebrows. His eyes were grey where they should have been white, and white where they should have been black and brown. He glanced at his chains, still clinging onto his limp form, then ahead at Luther, cleaning Cyrus’ blood off of the flaying knife.<br/><br/>Luther, shocked at the creature which had replaced his slave, continued flaying regardless, determined to end Cyrus once and for all, but Cyrus’ flesh grew back as quick as Luther could remove it. Though initially frustrated, Luther soon made a game of the whole ordeal. At first, he attempted to brand Cyrus using a sharp cattle prod, and was amused when he discovered that brandings would simply disappear overtime. The worst of Luther’s torture was not done with a knife, however, but with boiling oil and fire. He wished silently to himself several times that he would simply die, but no such relief came. Each day, when Cyrus’ injuries healed, the torture would begin again. It was through this repeated and brutal torture that Cyrus learned to hide his pain, yet his will was never truly broken as was Luther’s intent. It wasn’t until Luther threatened to flay Archie that Cyrus began to follow any sort of orders.<br/><br/>When Cyrus and Archie both learned to fight, but they did so as a pair. Though perhaps not any more capable than any other tag-team, their talents of showmanship made them extremely popular among the people stands. The roar of the crowd certainly bolstered the brothers’ morale, and allowed them to pull ahead of their competition in a few pinch situations. In those pits, they learned to fight, though Cyrus was always better at attracting the crowd’s attention, and Archie was a far better fighter.<br/><br/>Eventually, Luther had the idea to use Cyrus and Archie for a different sort of entertainment, taking advantage of their past training. The brothers (as well as several other slaves) were forced to entertain the chieftains and the Forsaken masses in a venue similar to the arena in an art form that combined theatre and blood sport. Because some parts demanded that a character be killed or brutalized in some way and the Forsaken had a seemingly unquenchable desire for bloodlust, it was highly expensive and usually unprofitable to put on one of these shows, regardless of how much prestige it would bring the slaves’ owner. However, Cyrus’ ability to regenerate into a new character each time he was “killed” gave the people the blood they wanted without costing Luther more than was necessary. Sometimes several times a day, Cyrus would fake his own death across dozens of painful scenes: so many times, in fact, that he began to think of it as a joke. Overtime, Cyrus began to enjoy being in front of a crowd more than he hated the pain, though perhaps not as much as he hated Luther.<br/><br/>That is, until the day they won their freedom...<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""That Fateful Day..."" type=""button"">That Fateful Day... [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Cyrus and Archie sat at a bar, surrounded by men and women of various backgrounds and professions, passionately telling the story of how he and his brother Archie escaped from the clutches of the forsaken. Though he omitted any parts alluding to his immortality, his tale was true, albeit dramatized. The bartender was listening closely to his spiel, clearly inspired by their outgoing charisma. Archie was just finishing up another part of the story of their capture and eventual escape.<br/><br/>“... And at this point, Cyrus and I were ready to put our plan into action. We’d talked it over with some of Luther’s other slaves, and since this was the only time we were allowed weapons, we knew it had to be during one of our performances.”<br/><br/>====<br/><br/>The clash of sword-upon-sword echoed throughout the round as Archie’s , colosseum-like arena as the massive crowd cheered for blood. The Scottish Play, MacBeth, was about to reach its climax, wherein MacDuff, played by Archie the Bladed Devil, would slay MacBeth, played by Cyrus, and restore Prince Malcolm to the throne. The arena was packed full, as was usually the case for particularly bloody plays. Considering that this was a piece written by the world’s most famous English sadist, William Shakespeare, this was sure to please. The climax was always the most popular part, as could be expected: the crowd cheered as MacDuff advanced, with the Tyrant King MacBeth edging closer and closer to the wall of the arena in desperation.<br/><br/>Cyrus screamed one of his final lines, about how no man of woman born could slay him. Archie replied cockily by stating that his mother had been given a C-section, as opposed to him technically being born. Cyrus hid a smirk from the audience, knowing full well this was the time for their plan to spring into action. It wasn’t much of a “plan”, per say, but Luther was watching the performance from above the very same wall that Cyrus was backed up against, with a large shield in hand. He gave a small nod, prompting Archie to charge forward, sword raised. At the top of his lungs, the heroic Lord MacDuff screamed: “DEATH TO THE TYRANT KING!”<br/><br/>As Archie came closer to his half-brother, Cyrus braced his shield, angling it up slightly. And, in a single motion, Archie jumped up into said shield, using it to vault up to the stands. He soared through the air as a smirk spread across his face, thrusting forward with his blade and winking as the point of his rapier went through the soft flesh on Luther’s neck. A single prick from the bladed devil’s long, thin sword to pierce Luther’s throat. The sound of him choking on his own blood was one of the sweetest sounds that either of the brothers had ever heard. In the end, though, the people were satisfied: they’d received their fill of blood, even if it wasn’t Cyrus’. Thunderous applause filled the arena regardless, as the announcer praised the duo as free men once again.<br/><br/>Having slain their master without drawing the ire of the anarchic Forsaken public, they were able to reclaim their mother’s possessions from Luther’s estate, and regain their freedom.</div></div><br/><br/>Since escaping the Forsaken three years ago, Archie and Cyrus have travelled around Dust, performing on the streets of various towns for scrap metal, clothes, bullets, and whatever passersby have to offer two starving (but incredibly talented) artists.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""gold"">Gear</font></div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><br/><li><span class=""bb-b"">Blunted Training Shortsword</span>: For practicing gladiatorial and stage-combat.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Butterfly Knife</span>: For stabbing things.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Spiked Bat</span>: A crude aluminum baseball bat with nails welded to it.

This callousness gets him into trouble, and though he himself is resistant to most forms of punishment, he occasionally lacks the foresight to see how his actions could harm others, directly or otherwise.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Why bother?

After excessive use of these abilities overtime, he will simply become too exhausted to fight if he takes enough bodily damage.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">A Lover, Not a Fighter:</span> There’s a reason Cyrus prefers to talk his way out of fights: outside of the melee-only world of the arena, Cyrus has very little combat experience, and is more likely to rely on his powers to get him through safely than any real skill. He can barely even hold a gun properly, let alone aim it.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Some Wounds Don’t Heal:</span> The psychological turmoil that Cyrus has been through still haunts him, but he hides his emotions from everyone around him, instead choosing to cope by treating his own existence as a joke of sorts. This usually manifests in the form of self-deprecating humour that can sometimes come across as unreasonably cruel, macabre or awkward.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Don’t Let Me Burn:</span> Though Cyrus learned to love the knife and use it to his advantage, Cyrus never stopped fearing Luther’s second favourite torture method: fire. Though he’s unlikely to turn and run if he sees a flame, he’ll try noticeably to stay as far away as possible from anything larger than a candle. Furthermore, severe burn wounds (especially wounds that have been cauterized) take Cyrus longer to heal: whether this is due to a physical limitation of his powers or a psychological limitation is still up for debate.</li></ul></div>"

Though such abhorrent things were of no real surprise, should one find themselves strolling through the Russel City slums often enough to become accustomed to such things. Especially considering the sour scent of sweat and dirt accumulating on unwashed bodies, rife with illness and all the fixings of severe poverty. Such was the slum life, rotting away in ragged clothing, deteriorating away, reflecting the use society has for them. Where the unskilled come to mope, where the unemployed come to complain, where anybody without a true purpose in life comes to die. Slowly, letting death creep upon them, as the bags under their eyes darken, as their hair fades and their clothes fray. Here where wild dogs hunt, and the Guardians of Motum Diversum do not tread needlessly. The kind of place that the common man avoids at all costs, turning his nose up at the very repulsive thought of finding himself there.<br/><br/>Alexandria, however, was no stranger to this place, though she still did wrinkle her nose from time to time. The air had shifted dramatically as she wandered through the city streets and tight alleyways: From the sweet smells of perfumes, muddled with the scent of strong spice and bodies sweating off expensive cologne, to the repugnant zephyr gentle ruffling the folds of her scarlet clothes. She lifted one gloved hand lazily, letting it drift across the begrimed wall of cracked stone and peeling plaster. She drew a thin channel through the blackened grime, letting her hand trail off of the wall leisurely, flicking the muck off the tip of her finger. She smiled remorsefully, her empathy hidden behind the thin veil of her red bandanna, and the silvery orbs of her goggles. In a way, she was like the people here. Though she was not frail, or in no particular state of deterioration, she felt the burden of being ostracized by society, felt the backlash of fear and pride. No, society had left a bitter taste in her mouth, which is why she found herself once again in the slums.<br/><br/>The door creaked sharply as Alex eased it open, it's rusted hinges protesting with piercing wails. The bit of tarnished sheet metal gave way easily, and quickly enough Alexandria found herself in a room that fared no better. Splintered cracks wove their way across the floor of old, dusty desert wood. Tiny, dark particles flickered in the slivers of light creeping through slight gaps in the roofing, and through the decomposing layer of boards covering the single window of this second story room. She stepped through carefully, her eyes scanning the room for a specific individual. <br/><br/>A shadowed form stepped soundlessly from a darkened corner, <font color=""cyan"">”You have a bad habit of entering without knocking, Alex.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”What about being late, talking back, and evading the law?”</font> She mused, closing the door softly behind her as she stepped towards the middle of the room, only slightly irritated.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”And sass,”</font> He chuckled, his thin, leather clad body becoming visible as he steps further into the light. His brown eyes watch Alex carefully, always aware of what she is, and what his usefulness means. A small cloud of dust whirls up into the air as he plants one wrinkled hand on an old, worn table by the window, his weathered body leaning against it. He moves stiffly, his age apparent even through his nearly entirely covered body. Only his face remains uncovered, plagued by wrinkles and age spots, his fatherly features enhanced by laugh lines and wizened by crows feet pulling at the corners of his eyes, partially obscured by thin, wispy locks of gray hair. <font color=""cyan"">”What do you want Alex?”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Straight to the point, as always Eddie,”</font> she answered, placing on hand on her hip as she looked up at him.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I go by Edgar now, it's more homely.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I don't really care, <span class=""bb-i"">Eddie</span>,”</font> She said vehemently, dropping her facade, <font color=""red"">”You'd be surprised how word gets around about the information broker who sells out Immortals. That lead was a setup <span class=""bb-i"">Eddie</span>, and thanks to you I have my face on every corner of this god forsaken city of whores and liars.”</font><br/><br/>Edgar's eyes widened, and he tried to take a shaky step back, but he only scooted the aged table against the wall. <font color=""cyan"">”L-listen Alex, you don't understand!”</font> He retorted, his voice wavering, <font color=""cyan"">”I have a family; A wife! Tw-”</font> His voice caught in his throat, the folds of his old neck working inaudibly as he tried to form some sort of coherent defense. His bloodshot eyes stared at Alex, her hood down and her hair rising sporadically from the intense static charge emanating from the fluorescent, crackling blue energy swirling around her arms, arcing between the tips of her fingers. <br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Where are the other Immortals Eddie?”</font> Alex spat, emphasizing her words by letting an arc of energy tear from each of her hands into the floor, leaving behind smoldering, charred wood as she took a step forward threateningly,<font color=""red"">”Where are they gathering?!”</font> Another arc of electric energy jumps off of her arm, curving haphazardly into the wall. Chunks of stone and mortar explode from the wall, cascading across the room. <br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I don't know Alex!”</font> He screams, the terror in his voice evident, <font color=""cyan"">“I'm r-retired for god's sake!”</font> <br/><br/>Another tendril fires off violently from Alex's arm, controlled only by her boiling anger this time, <font color=""red"">”LIAR!”</font> She screams, the ragged table exploding into a shower of tiny, flaming shards. Edgar falls to the ground, desperately patting out a small flame that had begun to inch its way across the wrist of his sleeve.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Oh god help me!”</font> The old man cries out pitifully, falling to his knees.<br/><br/>As if on cue the metal door erupts from its position, whirling violently into the room and sending Alexandria reeling into the far wall, her forehead smashing into the poorly boarded window.<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">”By order of The Executive, Alexandria Svet-Yulia, you are under arrest.”</font> A large armored man states, the authority thick in his deep voice as more armored officers file in behind him. <font color=""orange"">”Stay on the floor if you know what's good for you, whore.”</font> He spat, jutting his chest out as if flaunting the emblem of the Winged Guardians, a golden shoe with its own set of wings.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”You're late, the w-wretched bitch nearly killed me!”</font> Edgar stammered, standing and dusting himself off. <br/><br/>A narrow rivulet of blood streaked across Alexandria's goggle, a wider channel trickling between the two orbs, across the thick leather strap across her nose. The bitter, metallic taste of blood permeated her mouth, split by a sadistic, wide smile.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”The only crime I've committed,”</font> She started, rising to all fours slowly,<font color=""red"">”Is being alive.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""orange"">”I said stay down you mutant bitch!”</font> The large, brusque man half leaped, half stormed across the floor, his truncheon swiftly cutting through the air to crack painfully across Alex's back. Alex's face collided with the floor, her blood mixing with the dust and dirt as the breathe left her body. Another crack wracked Alex's petite body with pain. Emotional, haunting pain. A ghost from her past that haunted her constantly, a reminder of who she was. The ghost of her old self. <br/><br/>Tiny motes of dust rose into the air as an emotional pain wracked Alex's body. <font color=""orange"">”That's right!”</font> The Guardian laughed,<font color=""orange"">”That's a good--<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Slave</span></span>”</font> Greya's voice echoed the word in her mind, patronizing her with the fallacy of motherliness, tormenting her even after death.<br/><br/>The swirling vortex of anger and trauma within Alex externalized itself like a clap of thunder, a bright column of sizzling electricity firing off of her body, smashing into the ceiling and fanning out, the multitudes of electrical tendrils spanning across the metal roofing wildly, like a wild herd of sparks trampling over themselves. Dust fell from the ceiling in thick spires, bending away from Alex's body from the static force of her spark given phenomena. <br/><br/><font color=""orange"">”Fucking whore!!”</font> The guard spat, tossing aside the half melted truncheon in favor of his gun. Stray arcs of energy shot from Alex's body wildly, with no apparent direction or control. Two of which struck the guard, one right after the other, coursing through the reinforce metal threading of his vest, plunging into the depths of his body. He gasped, clutching as his heart as he fell to the floor, keeling over in cardiac arrest.<br/><br/>The four other Guardians in the room drew their weapons; a combination of well maintained handguns and a single automatic assault rifle. A flicker of energy played across the metal surfaces of the firearms as Alex picked her bloodied and battered self off the floor.  The Guardians flinched in pain, dropping their electrified weapons. One of them cursed, reaching for his secondary firearm, as the other three warily drew their melee weapons; each of whom wielded long sword-like blades. One charged forward, his blade raised high. He took three steps before the height and material of his weapon attracted Alex's energy. All of the electrical arcs firing from her body ceased, and became one thickened tendril of lightning.<br/><br/>The Guardian stopped dead in his tracks, literally, his lifeless muscles clenched in response to the current flowing through his corpse. A second later and the heart and pressure from the point of contact became to much, and his smoking corpse launched backwards in a spray of sparks and an audible blast that shook floor until it threatened to crack completely. Alex pushed up her dirty goggles, her pure white eyes falling on Edgar, cowering in one corner, a smoldering patch on his clothing giving off a winding stream of smoke, obvious that he had received a stray strike from her. Though her control didn't last long, as she gazed upon him her anger surged forward with renewed life. Sweat gathered on her brow, mingling with the blood from the dirt encrusted gash on her forehead.<br/><br/>The energy swirled around her again pulsating in tune with the rhythm of her heart hammering in her chest. A distant bang played across her ears, drowned out by the boiling sea of rage in her mind. For a moment, Edgar's face became Greya's, and Alex lashed out, both hands emitting a hot, crackling stream of white lightning, the heat of which set Edgar, and the entire corner he was cowering in, aflame. The stone wall cracking from force and intensity of the of the fire. The wave of heat immediately caused the Guardians to retreat from the burning floor. The one with the gun turning into the hallway, leaving his two comrades with their blades in the room, separated by the quickly growing inferno. It was evident that they no longer wished to try detaining, or even killing, Alex. One of them made a quick move for the window. A blue flash, and his smoking body tumbles through the weakened boards, rolling across the first story roof outside. The remaining Guardian silently drops is weapon, icy claws of fear clutching at his heart. He puts both of his hands up, and slowly backs away.<br/><br/>The stone wall behind him cracks with the force of his seared corpse hitting it. A thick blanket of black smoke begins to gather, bringing Alex out of her uncontrollable rage. She coughs as the swirling energy around her body dies down, a residue of small blue sparks jumping through her hair. She feels a wetness spreading across her arm, and a slight pain. The shot had only clipped the side of her arm, leaving a rather deep gouge instead of a bullet wound.<br/><br/>Alex coughed once more, the oxygen depriving smoke robbing her of sight. Her eyes watered, and all she could hear was the crackling of the fire, and the splintering of wooden boards. She turned and felt her way across the wall, hacking out the impure air she was involuntarily breathing. The broken edge of a board met her fingers, and she tore at the crudely made barricade, her fingers scrambling for purchase. She felt she had enough room to safely maneuver through, and the persistent lack of oxygen hastened her decision to launch herself out the window, tumbling across the first story roof. Her body hit the ground, rear first, thankfully sparing her face from further arm.<br/><br/>She rolled over, an ache rapidly spreading through her body. Sweat dripped from her face as she stared at the ground, her heart beating furiously against its prison within her body. She gasped for air, coughing out the scant remnants of the smoke left in her lungs. She looked up to the sky, still cloudless and pale gray with the coming dawn, obscured by a thick column of smoke. She picked herself up, resentment heavy on her face. <br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Fucking Standards,”</font> She hissed, wiping the blood and dirt from her lips. That was her derogatory nickname for <span class=""bb-i"">'normal'</span> people, Non-Immortals. She started cautiously down the cramped side street, receiving only the curious looks from a few slums residents, peering out from their makeshift shanties and pilfered crates. It was going to be a long walk back to her safe house, a long, painful walk. </div>"
121,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-08 15:54:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A deep rumbling issued from an old motorcycle, spreading far and wide across the empty expanses north of Laguna. It was mid day, the weather was hot, and most people would be walking around covered entirely in thin, loose clothing to ward off the sun's rays but allow the breezes to cool them down. One young woman, however, hadn't thought of doing that in the past two years. Currently she was wearing an old t-shirt and loose kaki pants; arms exposed and the only thing covering her head being a pair of goggles to avoid the sand entering her eyes. Her relatively pale arms were uncovered, as was her neck and face; hair the colour of fire waving freely behind her as she drove across the sparse plains. 

A shout, a gunshot, and a frown pulled at her lips and creased her brows. She looked behind her, watching as a group of what she assumed were scavengers came closer to her. They were each driving a motorcycle like hers, but unlike her they wore clothing that covered their entire bodies and shielded them from the relentless sun. Another shout, this one vaguely audible over the rush of the wind past her ears. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""...Stop...no more warn...shot...give...stuff...""</span>

Great, it was a couple of bandits who thought that she was a helpless woman who couldn't defend herself. It wasn't that she couldn't see the logic behind their assumptions, but come on! To live in this day and age one had to toughen up, <span class=""bb-i"">especially</span> if you became an Immortal. The world was not kind to you if you did not know how to defend yourself, and it was downright malicious and evil if you happened to catch The Sickness but survive. The bandits came up beside her, driving with one on either side, and one behind. They each drove a good ten metres on either side, but judging by the looks on their faces they weren't going to race her. 

""No more warning shots!"" One of them yelled, pointing a gun at her. ""Next one <span class=""bb-i"">will</span> hit!"" 

She sighed and hit the break, turning her bike into a sideways, screeching stop. She stepped down from the bike and looked around at the bandits as they, too, dismounted and walked closer to her, guns held at the ready. Evelina--for that was the young woman's name--had her own gun still strapped to her hip, and a short broadsword carried horizontally across her lower back. She crossed her arms underneath her modest bust as the three bandits--all men, she could see now--stalked closer. 

""What's the matter?"" She asked innocently, looking at each of them in turn, eyes hidden by the goggles. 

""Give us your stuff, now,"" one of them demanded. He was the one with the biggest gun, and, presumably, the leader. 

Evelina's brows knitted together in a frown once again. ""No."" 

""You will give us your stuff if you don't wanna die,"" a voice from behind her said, soon accompanied by the feeling of something hard pressing against the back of her skull. ""Now be a good little girl and hand over whatever you have."" 

""No, I don't think so."" She looked at the two now standing in front of her, one of them heading towards her bike for the supplies hidden in its side bags. ""It's mine,"" she continued. ""Don't touch it."" 

The voice from behind her laughed. ""Not like you have much of a choice, kiddo. Three against one, and a gun to your head. Now why don't you just shut up and take the chance to live, hmm?""

""It's not like you'd be able to kill me,"" Evelina said calmly. 

""Wanna try your luck, then?"" She could feel the man behind her place a hand on her hips, feel it snaking its way across her stomach and slowly upwards until he held one of her breasts. ""If we can't kill you, then why don't you stop me?"" As if to emphasize that she was powerless to act he squeezed her breast hard, fondling it like only someone deprived of any decent contact would. 

Evelina's eyes narrowed behind the goggles, her mouth pressing into a thin line. ""Alright, that's it."" She kicked backwards, hitting the pervert behind her in the groin with her heel. In both fury and pain he pulled the trigger still pressed against the back of her head. It fired, and hit the wheel of one of the other bandit's bikes. 

The grin that had spread across the perverted bandit's face was soon wiped away from the lack of the expected spray of  blood, and also because the girl whom he had thought he just killed, evaporated into tiny particles of light. Before the hammer of the gun had even struck down, she was gone in a shower of sparks and had rushed away. 

""I told you, you wouldn't be able to kill me,"" Evelina said from behind him, appearing suddenly from nowhere. The broadsword usually strapped across her back was in her hand, pressed against his neck. ""Now stand ba--""

""Shit! Sh-She's an Immortal!"" It was the guy who had been watching Evelina getting fondled and held at gunpoint. It had taken him a few moments to regain his voice, but her dissolving into motes of light definitely did not go unnoticed. 

""Acute observation,"" she remarked dryly, pushing her goggles up onto her forehead and revealing her green, slitted eyes. ""Yes, I'm an Immortal, and a healer. So if you'd kindly leave my stuff in my bags, and then piss off... I'd very much appreciate that.""

""K-Kill her!"" It was the guy who had been sorting through her bags. He'd drawn his own gun again and pointed it at her, the first shot ringing out and missing her completely. A grunt from the man she was holding told her that he had taken the shot. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Damnit.</span> 

He shot again, though this time it didn't reach its target, hitting an invisible barrier instead. Removing her sword, Evelina shoved the pervert away, three bands of what looked like solid light materialized and bound themselves around his wrists and ankles. The final one placed itself around the wound in his leg, stopping the bleeding and putting pressure onto it. 

The one who had shouted to kill her shot again, and once more the shot was stopped before it hit her, as did the one from the other, still standing, bandit. She raised her hand, pointing her palm towards the former. Light gathered in her palm and, after a short while, shot forward and hit his hand. He dropped the gun, screaming from the burn marks covering the entirety of his hand. Calmly, she turned towards the only one still standing. He was shaking, eyes wide in fear and gun pointed at her in a desperate attempt to keep hold on some semblance of authority, even if it had so clearly been lost the moment she first acted. 

""Y-You're a fucking monster, you know that?"" He half said, half shouted. ""No wonder people fear you, with how much of a freak you are."" 

""I'm no more a monster than you."" Her eyes narrowed, her already piercing gaze becoming that much more loaded. ""If anything, I'm less so. You steal and rob, kill and rape. How am I worse than you? I got sick, and woke up with these powers. It's not my choice, but you!"" She took a menacing step towards him. ""You take from others what they have worked hard for, threatening their lives if they don't comply. I wouldn't be surprised if all three of you had your share of rapes on your consciousness."" 

The man laughed, a desperate sort of laugh. ""Oh yeah? And what if we do? I bet most of them liked it. Hell, even <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> would have probably acted like a good little whore if you'd just let John have his fun."" 

""I don't think so."" Where before her voice had been casual, if with an edge to it, it was now a low and dangerous tone she used. 

""Oh sure you do."" He snorted, some self confidence returning to him when she didn't immediately attack, but talked instead. ""Any bitch with a pair of cow-like hips li--""

He got no further, and didn't even have time to react, before she was in front of him, teeth bared in a feral snarl and fist raised. A shimmer surrounded her fist shortly before it impacted with his face, shattering his nose and more than likely fracturing his jaw as well. 

-----

He awoke about half an hour later, fully expecting to see all of their equipment and provision taken. Perhaps the thing that he had expected the least of all was actually what greeted him. It was the feeling of gentle hands and slender fingers touching his face which woke him, something he would've only expected to feel from a whore. It was, however, a pair of slitted green eyes and long strands of fiery hair which greeted him as he opened his eyes. Bandages covered his nose and a good part of his face. 

""H-How?"" He croaked, wincing as a lance of pain shot through the right side of his face. ""Why?"" 

""You don't call me cow,"" was Evelina's response. ""It's the one thing I won't tolerate."" She put the finishing touches to the gauze around his face and stood up, looking down at him with pitiless eyes. ""And to answer your questions: Kinetic speed that comes from the result of travelling at 20 metres pr second, coupled with a barrier around my hand results in a very hard punch. And why I'm doing this for you? I like to believe that I'm better than the likes of you. Call it my attempt to lessen the hatred for us Immortals."" She paused, glancing off to the side. ""Your friends are well enough. I took out the bullet from that pervert's--John?--leg and bound the wound. The other guy I gave some salve to help with his burns. You're all bound in my ropes for the next half hour, after which they'll disappear. I've taken your guns but left your food and water. Good bye."" 

She strode away, towards her bike, and climbed onto it. She didn't look back as she drove off towards north again. She'd heard that there were people in Russle Town who didn't look down on Immortals so much, and would be willing to trade with her, and let her work. She just hoped that they were right. 

Even if they weren't, she could always sneak in and plant a letter into the mail office. It was about time she sent her parents a new update on how things were going for her.</div>"
122,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-09 20:52:00,Prophecy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Stop it. I hate it when you do that,"" Sydney said, withdrawing the cigarette from her lips and frowning at the perfectly uniform spheres of smoke appearing before her. She exhaled another breath of smoke, and this too morphed into a ball and joined the others in the centre of the room. With one hand she swatted at the spheres causing them to disperse, and with the other she stubbed the dog-end out on the table between them. ""God, Jackson, you know I hate it when you do that,"" she reiterated, but he said nothing and simply shot a smirk in her direction. After taking one last breath of blissful nicotine he too stubbed the remainder of his cigarette on the table and they sat in silence for a moment. 

""So,"" Jackson said in his distinct, husky voice. ""How was your trip?""  

""Bloody awful,"" was all she said at first. Jackson knit his brows in a questioning fashion, but Sydney didn't offer a reply. Instead she leant across the table and ran a hand along his cheek. It had been two weeks since they had last seen each other and there was a tension between them that was so prominent it was almost tangible. Shedding her leather jacket and laying it across the back of her chair she sauntered around the table and perched on the edge by Jackson. He leant in a kissed her on the lips, obviously wanting more, but she pulled away, cupping his face in her hands and staring intently into his eyes. ""Where do I start? The bandits on the second day, the wild dogs in the middle of the night, being chased three miles down the road by some godforsaken caravan thirsty for my blood..."" 

""For Christ sake, Sydney!"" Jackson said, escaping her hold on his face. ""I've told you that if you run into trouble you come straight back here. Profit is great, but not at the expense of your life."" He stood up and left her on the battered oak table. In the kitchen a flame was steadily evaporating a liquid in a clay bowl, leaving behind a light blue crystal-like substance. He cautiously lifted the bowl with a pair of tongs, shook the solution, and then replaced it above the flame. With his hands resting on his waist he thought on what to say, staring out into the sun-scorched streets through the kitchen window.

""Next time I'll come with-"" 

""No,"" She interrupted. ""No. You know I can handle myself. Do you see as little as a cut or a bruise on my body? Of course not. The bandits, I beat them up pretty bad, hauled all three of them into the back of the truck and dropped them off at the nearest town. The dogs are all lying dead by the roadside, and the caravan was easy to outrun. Why don't you trust me, Jackson..."" 

""Hey, I trust you."" He moved across the room - a slight limp in his step - and embraced her slender body. He put his mouth by her ear and whispered, ""You know I trust you,"" but hardly lingered in the moment, not one for sickly romance. Obviously unconvinced, Sydney stood with her weight on one leg and head slightly tilted as he parted from her. With an unwavering gaze she watched for any sign of hesitation or pretence, though there was none and she soon grew bored. She grabbed her jacket from the back of the chair and made for the bedroom when there came a knock at the door. 

""Open up."" Said a male voice. It was deep and authoritative - Jackson knew at once that it was a Guardian.

Neither of them spoke. Sydney's eyes grew wide, but Jackson only nodded in the direction of the kitchen where and array of chemicals boiled over flames and corked flasks of liquid stood proud. Without hesitation she walked briskly into the kitchen and began cutting the gas on the Bunsen burners, packing them neatly behind the false backs of cupboards, and hastily piling the bowls of chemicals and flasks in the same way. While she did this Jackson caught her attention and rubbed his thumb and fingers together in a motion as if asking for money. However, to them this was a signal for fire - or more specifically smoke.

""Coming,"" He called, taking his time to reach the door. There was just enough time for Sydney to finish clearing up and vanish into the bedroom with a small canister under her arm before he unlocked the door and opened it slightly. ""Hello,"" He said, noting that it wasn't just one Guardian, it was three. ""Can I help you?"" 

""Jackson Cooper I believe?"" The man who had spoken before said. His hair was greying at the sides, his face lined with creases and his expression set in a permanent scowl. He looked questionably old to be a Guardian fit for field-work, which could only be a good thing in Jackson's opinion. He was most likely a long-standing member of the force who had been assigned mostly office work in recent years. If that was true it was probably also true that this was only a routine search or the result of a tip-off that they didn't expect would turn up anything of interest. ""We've received an anonymous letter informing us that your premises are being used for the production of illegal narcotics.""

""Oh, is that so?"" Jackson replied with a titter. He moved aside, fully opening the door. ""Well, by all means come and inspect the place for yourself.""

All three men entered, their heavy tread unsettling the thin layer of dust on the floor. Without another word they began to inspect the entire room, but the two younger men were both drawn towards the kitchen area. They opened cupboard doors, grunted at the modest stores of food, and then moved their search into what could only be described as a living area - though it was no more than a worn sofa, two chairs, and a salvaged television that would play old VHS tapes on a good day. The older man, however, wandered around the oak table before stopping abruptly and addressing Jackson.

""How many people are staying in this apartment?"" 

""Only myself.""

""Really?"" The Guardian said. ""Strange that a man living on his own should have two fresh cigarette butts at opposite ends of a table."" He brushed the remains of Jackson and Sydney's cigarettes onto the floor, leaning in to scrutinize the varnished wooden surface. As he was doing this, he continued to talk. ""And the bedroom over there, I won't find anyone in there?""

""No."" 

He stood upright once again, narrowing his eyes. Of course, Jackson was fully aware that he would send a Guardian in there, and that they would find Sydney underneath the bed or hidden behind a rail of clothes in the closet. Or maybe she would be resourceful, he thought. And the more he considered this possibility the more certain he was that she'd already climbed out of the window, dropped from the first floor apartment, and run to the four-by-four to hide. Yes, the more he thought about it the more he knew that she had done that and they would find nothing of suspicion to...

""Sir, we've found a false back to this cupboard.""

There was a moment of silence before the word <span class=""bb-i"">Crap</span> escaped Jackson's lips, and then, perfectly one cue, and canister rolled into the centre of the room. All three Guardians looked at it with alarm before a sharp hissing escaped its metal casing and a thick smoke rapidly began filling the room. The senior Guardian shouted for the other two to apprehend the suspect, coughing and spluttering his words, and without a moment to comprehend the situation the two younger Guardians were advancing on him. The first took a swing at Jackson's face, hitting him firmly in the jaw and throwing him off balance. The second kneed him in the guts, forcing a sickening sensation throughout his body and sending him sprawling across the floor. Through a haze Jackson could hear the senior man retching on the floor, and without thinking the second Guardian went to his to aid leaving Jackson alone with the other.

He was strong. Strong enough to lift Jackson from the floor and force him against the wall. Fortunately he was already inhaling vast amounts of the smoke and signs of physical deterioration were already visible. His hands were shaking and coughed up bile dripped from his mouth. He took another swing for Jackson, but this time his speed wasn't quite so lethal. Jackson managed to block the brunt of the blow and kick the man backwards, and in the seconds it took for the Guardian to recompose himself he could see the leader of the squad had collapsed to the floor. The second Guardian - realising that his first-aid attempts were futile - now came to the aid of his younger comrade and attempted to retrieve his gun despite the violent spasms in his hands. Meanwhile the first Guardian pounced again, launching another assault on Jackson's face, and another, and another. Through a flurry of hard punches Jackson managed to gain enough focus to concentrate a mass of the smoke and force it into the Guardian’s lungs, causing him to slump to the ground almost instantly.

It was then that Jackson could focus on the second Guardian standing above him, but he was too late. The young man held a gun in his hand, his twitching finger ready to pull the trigger. With his jaw clenched Jackson awaited the excruciating pain that awaited him, only to be met by a dull thud, and the sound of a body hitting the floor. He strained his eyes, peering into fog, as Sydney emerged holding a chair in her hand and a gas mask obscuring her face. At will the smoke around them receded and streamed out of the open window in the kitchen. Sydney removed her mask, a look of utter annoyance spread across her face.

""What a fantastic welcome home gift,"" She said. ""We've got some cleaning up to do. These Guardians are going to wake up in twenty minutes.""

""Great,"" Jackson grunted in reply.

Sydney moved over to his side and offered him a hand. He accepted, and once he was standing she grimaced at the state of his face, but made no further comments. As Jackson willed the remaining clouds of smoke to escape through the window she began dragging each body towards the door, leaning them each against the wall as she did so. She inspected their faces, cleaning bloodied patches with a cloth. Jackson stood in the kitchen and washed his face with the warm tap water. Despite its temperature it was soothing enough. 

""So, I suppose we'll have to drop them off in a nearby alleyway,"" He said. ""I doubt they'll remember much that happened today, let alone the last fifteen minutes.""</div>"

I find myself somewhere familiar. A grassy field; I'm kneeling in a grassy field, not Gaen territory though, it's unkempt. The sky is a pure shade of azure, interrupted only by the fluffy white clouds. It is entirely unlike the orange skies of Dust, and it's sick, shriveled gray clouds. Wherever I am, it is somewhere completely unique and beautiful.

I am aware that I've never been here, but the feelings of nostalgia pervade. Perhaps I've seen a similar scene in one of my books?

I can't hear anything. I am unsure why this is, perhaps I've broken my eardrums? I feel no pain, however, so I don't understand how that can be. For some reason, I am deaf in this dream.

Yes. I must remember that this is only a dream.

The sky changes. The clouds multiply, consuming the perfect blue sheet-- it happens in a matter of seconds. Soon there only remains an empty hole of blue in an expansive sea of white cotton.

I look down.

The grass is black and rotting-- the entire field, now sickly. The wind that was blowing through the field has ceased, the air is still and smells of a pungent pestilence.

The body of a man I recognize to be my father lays in front of me, freshly deceased, it seems, the cause of death being an arrow to the back.

Looking up, I see the perpetrator. 

A man on a White Horse inches closer to me, he has brought a fog with him and it obscures his face. I've been through this before, I know who this man is. He is a slimy man, devoid of honor and morals, he robbed me of my sister, he manipulates my grandfather and antagonizes father and myself.

Paolo Rivera; mi hermano-- only through marriage.

He is grinning impossibly wide, readying his bow for another shot. My eyes go back to father's corpse. I watch as the blood stains his suit a deep red, I reach out to touch him, I want to see his face again.

His body is gone. I fall forward into the puddle of blood and black grass. 

I look up again, Paolo is laughing at me. He seems to know I can't hear him and exaggerates all of his actions, he wants me to know that he is laughing at me. 

I don't respond.

The White Horse neighs. I've never seen a horse on Dust before, but my mind has somehow able to create this realistic creature based on what I know of them from books. I tilt my head in response. Why is it that I can hear the White Horse?

Paolo readies his bow again, and fires.

The arrow never reaches me. He can never fire fast enough. My sister, Lucina, has come to my aid, taking the arrow in her heart to protect me. She has fallen into our father's pool of blood. I crawl forward to her. As I hold her in my arms, I see her face, pained, but smiling. A tear trails down her cheek, she says something to me before she evaporates into fog.

I cannot hear it.

I can <span class=""bb-b"">never</span> hear it.

Paolo's is impossibly wide, cheshire in many ways. In his laughter, he has shed his clothing. The horse has not moved.

My vision is becoming darker. I feel anger, I feel anxiety, I feel hate. A beautiful, boundless hate. I want to release it somehow, to share my hatred with Paolo, with the fog and the world and the clouds and sky. I want to scream!

Yes! Screaming will work! 

It doesn't matter that I can't hear it-- I scream.

Paolo screams with me. He no longer holds his cheshire grin, his eyes are gone, replaced by faucets of blood, his ears and mouth soon follow. As I stand, Paolo disappears into fog. 

I stop, for now.

The black grass is gone. Beneath my bare feet I feel dirt and blood. As I bring my head up, I notice the changes in my own body; father's blood has spread all over my dress, staining it a midnight black-- the flowers in my hair rot and become black themselves, and... my flesh rots.

I feel it peel it's way off my face, I look at my hands as it falls to the ground, slipping painlessly like sand through my fingers, leaving behind only my ghostly-white skeletal form.

To my right, I see a legion of men riding atop <font color=""darkred"">Red Horses</font> in the distance. They carry the banner of the Forsaken and trample women and children as they move forward, men rise to stop them, only to be gunned down.

To my left, I see a lone figure sitting atop a <font color=""black"">Black Horse</font>. Dressed in a glowing white cowl and robes, he softly regards a scale.

I look forward, and see a woman on a <font color=""palegreen"">Pale Horse</font>. 

This woman... is familiar. She looks like me, but she is not me. She has soft brown eyes, a slender form, and.. this aura...

No. She is not me. This is a good person.

She is beautiful. Her motherly aura and short hair frame her wrinkly smile perfectly, she seems genuinely happy to see me.

'Mother?'

I'd like to whisper that, but my skeletal form prevents me from doing so. She extends her hand to me, from atop the <font color=""palegreen"">Pale Horse</font> and before I know it, I find myself hoisted atop the curious creature. The woman is gone.

The <font color=""palegreen"">Pale Horse</font> moves forward slowly, without my comand, and I remember a quote from the Bhagavad-Gita... 

""Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.""

I look up, and see the same blue hole in the sky now full of black clouds. I see a familiar woman standing there, impossibly far away, yet I perceive her easily, to her right, there is a lion and to her left, there is a lamb. She sees me, I know she does, and she smiles at me sadly.

""Rosemary?""

I heard myself say that-- and so did the <font color=""palegreen"">Pale Horse</font>, he begins to rush forward-- I hold on to him with one skeletal hand and reach out to her with the other.

There are tears in her eyes as she turns away from me, and walks towards the almighty. 

In an instant, the tiny circle of blue sky becomes dark, and where there was once a distant sun, there is now... darkness... surrounded by a sick firey ring.

""Something is coming.""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

All it took was a light knock at her door to bring Lucania out of her dark reverie.

The woman's earthly senses slowly returned to her as her eyes opened. Dawn's pale glow made it's way in through the window that served as the wall between her and the balcony. Within it's view was the ocean, and groggy sun that seemed to rise from it's waves. 20 floors up, the majestic view from the Bella Vista suite was one most men and women of Dust would never get the chance to see. Lucania, while she adored her abode, had long ago grown accustomed to the mundanity of her view. The sun's light, to her, was little more than a natural alarm clock, and the ocean was simply where it went to reset itself. 

With a sigh, Lucania Castalia sat up in her empty bed. It was a fantastic bed, one twice the size of an Old World King's bed, adorned with restored satin sheets, comforters embroidered with eccentric designs and velvet pillows that of heaven's touch. It was empty.

Her bed was typically empty. Yet, the same somber feeling continued to come over her each morning she woke to the empty, still room.

The ocean was to her left. The other three walls were lined, from floor to ceiling, with books. The bookshelves were only interrupted by the two doors in front of her bed; one leading to a walk-in closet, the other leading to a rest room. The Victorian scavenged oak wood desk that sat in the corner, its beautiful carved designs were overshadowed by the mess of paper and ink that covered and surrounded it. Two night stands, designed to resemble marble columns, sat on either side of the massive bed; the stand to her right had a lamp, her purse, and a bowl of fresh fruit, on the stand to her left sat a meticulously arranged assortment of liquor and alcohol, as well as materials for making cocktails. Just to the left of this stand, a door lead to Victorian inspired living space, where, from a door leading to one of the Hotel's hallways, another knock came.

With a groan, Lucania let her fall back on to the pillow. She laid there a moment, staring at some pseudo-Christian mural on the ceiling before yelling an exasperated <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""What!?""</span></span> in her naturally accented voice.

There was a heavy silence.

She sat up again. It was too close to late morning, it's didn't matter how late she had stayed up running numbers, she wasn't getting back to sleep. The covers shifted as she crawled to the left side of the, this time cupping a hand around her mouth as she called into the living room, <span class=""bb-i"">""Yes? I apologize for the outburst, I'm afraid you woke me. What is it that you want?""</span> she focused her voice, shifting it around the corners of the room, bouncing it into the ears of the figure in the hallway.

The voice in the hallway was soft, but masculine. His voice was shaky-- probably new-- terrified of getting on the wrong side Lucania Castalia, the bloody sleeved maiden of the Castalia Family. ""I-I've been sent to request your presence downstairs, Miss Castalia...""

Lucania was already up. She examined herself in the mirror of her restroom before taking of hygiene. Apparently, today a single red rose sprouted from her hair. Perfectly positioned, as if she had simply placed an authentic Gaen one there, as always.

<span class=""bb-i"">Fitting.</span>

As she applied her make-up, she bent her voice around the corners of the suite, bouncing it and maintaining it's volume. To the messenger, it would have seemed as if she was standing right behind the door, <span class=""bb-i"">""Alright, and may I ask for what purpose?""</span>

""Umm, breakfast, Miss Castalia--""

The rose red lipstick fell from her hand as she finished, her stomach growled at the word. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Breakfast!</span>

Breakfast? She was absolutely famished! The woman ran to her closet, hardly able to contain the excitement in her voice as she replied, <span class=""bb-i"">""Who calls for me?""</span>

""Your father, Miss Castalina, Sottocapo-- He's waiting on the second floor of the grand dining hall, in--""

<span class=""bb-i"">""The Opera booth, correct?""</span> Her mouth was practically watering. She quickly pulled the black dress on, making quick work of the zipper, ""That's where he usually sits, anyway..."" She muttered, mostly to herself.

""U-um, yes Miss Castalia.""

The dress was on. She sat on the edge of her bed, purse by her side, holding everything her concealed dress pockets couldn't carry. She was buckling tiny straps on the high heels, <span class=""bb-i"">""Thank you-- Tell him I'll be down in five.""</span>

""A-actually Miss Castalia, he sent me to escort you--""

""Oh?"" The door swung open and Lucania stood before the man, a smirk forming on her face as his eyes widened in horror and attraction. The black evening gown was tailored to fit Lucania's form perfectly; a single split exposed a shapely right leg to the world, with it's beautiful olive complexion, a low cut front exposed a teasing amount of cleavage and it's back went even further down, the sleeves were long and flowing, they hid her hands, and within their stitches, they hid razor blades, the signature feature of Miss 'Bloody Sleeves' Castalia's wardrobe. 

Lucania placed a hand on her hip, tilting her head as she smiled teasingly at the man, ""Well then. Shall we go?""

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

The Opera Booth, named so because Lucania's father, ""Lucky"" Luciano Castalia the Fifth, has never read a book on architectural structures in his life, is, in fact, not a booth-- nor does it overlook an opera. It is a private indoor balcony, on the second floor of the Castalia Hotel &amp; Resort the finest establishment in all of Serenity and Dust. 

The grand dining hall, is, believe it or not, the grandest of all the dining halls available at the Castalia Hotel &amp; Resort. It was reserved only for high-paying permanent guests and esteemed guests, complete with a stage holding a variety of entertainment and private chefs, the room was truly something to behold. Spending too much time in the hall had a tendency to make one forget the horrors of the world that existed just outside-- or inside, if one considered all the prostitution, drug use, casino robbery, and assassinations that took place elsewhere in the Hotel.

This morning, it seemed, the hall was mostly being occupied by rouge Gaen scientists. They milled about in their lab coats and suits, idly nibbling at their meals, some bobbing their heads to the gentle jazz being played by the band. They made all of this possible. It had happened in Lucania's life when the family began outsourcing work to Gaen's gone rouge. Typically, they left due to limitations on research they wanted to conduct. If they came across one, the Castalia Family offered them a deal; they received quotas on drug production, and in return they received an environment in which they could experiment in peace, while living in safety and comfort. The purity of Gaen drugs is on unmatched in all of Dust.

From the Opera Booth, one could see it all, hear it all, in exclusivity and privacy. Lucania had only been a few times, so the opportunity itself was something mildly exciting--

<span class=""bb-i"">Not quite as much as the prospect of a gourmet meal, though.</span>

As Lucania opened the door on to the Opera Booth balcony, she could see that the boy who had fetched had been right. Her father had been here waiting. He didn't appear to notice her, he sat at the table, half-way through a cigar, staring out at the band below. The back of his head was to her, Lucania couldn't tell if it was in anger or contemplation.

She quietly moved over to his side, planting a kiss on his check in greetings, to his surprise. ""Good morning, father."" She took the seat across the man, crossing her legs as she sat, ""You don't typically invite me to breakfast.""

The man, Luciano Castalia V, extended his arms, exaggerating his joy, ""Ahhhhh! You kiddin' me, a chance for my lovely princess to grace me with her appearance! I relish days like this!"" He spoke with an accent, the masculine opposite of Lucania's. He was clean shaven, with large brown eyes surrounded by a wrinkled face sculpted by the wrinkles of premature age, his hair was shoulder length, dark brown, and slicked back to the point that it shined in the morning sun. He wore an expensive looking pinstripe-suit tailored to his tall, fat, and muscular figure. Putting out his cigar, he leaned across the table to deliver two smokey kisses to Lucania's checks. ""Ahhh, Lucia, we never get to have quality father-daughter time, no?""

Luciana's lips curled into a smirk, she tilted her head and maintained eye contact with her father, saying nothing.

""Ahhh, damnit..."" He sighed as he leaned back, ""She's too smart for her own good..."" he muttered with a smile on his face, before pointing a meaty finger at her, ""You're too smart for your own good! That wit is gonna get you killed one day, Lucia!"" Luciana rolled her eyes as the man clapped his hands together, the manner in which one summoned the wait staff in the Opera Booth. ""Yeah. I need to talk some business with you Lucia-- You know we have a Family meeting today-- I need to discuss some things with you before that, so that we go in prepared,"" As the waitress made her way over a big smile came to Luciano's face, ""But first we eat, no?""

""Christ, Father, I thought you'd never ask...""

The man let out a low chuckle, ""My princess? Hungry? Ahhhh, that won't do, will it?"" He said teasingly, turning to the waitress, he gave their order, ""We'll have the regular-- Bread, pastries, fruit-- all fresh.""

""Of course, sir. Do you have any special requests today?""

""Hmmm,"" The man tapped his rotund belly, ""We'll try out the peach-apricot jam.""

The waitress nodded and turned to Lucania, ""Anything special for you, Ms. Castalia?""

Lucania could feel the color of her eyes shift in thought. She could feel them become purple as she locked eyes with the waitress, ""Coffee?""

""Of course! How would you like it prepared.""

Lucania's eyes narrowed, ""As black as this dress..."" Lucania's hand ventured to grab the woman's, and, maintaining eye contact with the waitress, she planted a soft kiss on the back of her hand, marked by the rose red lipstick, ""...and as sweet as a stolen kiss.""

The waitress's face flushed red, red enough to make Lucania giggle, Lucanio merely rolled his eyes, ""My daughter the lady killer..."" He turned to the waitress, ""I'll take a coffee too, Irish.""

""R-right, I-I'll get your orders sent right up!""

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

""So."" her father said matter-of-factly, brushing off the crumbs on his face with a napkin, ""Business.""

""Business!"" Lucania parroted, sipping on her coffee.

""You know me, Lucia, I like getting the hard part out of the way first--""

""Right."" Lucania spread jam over a slice of bread, ""And the hard part is?""

""An assignment I know you won't like.""

She dropped the knife, immediately looking her father in the eyes, her irises went from happy yellow to a shifting hazel, <span class=""bb-i"">""What assignment?""</span>

""Well,"" he leaned back in his chair, ""You know about the expansion into Russel City?""

""I certainly ought too,"" She leaned in, her eyes becoming reddish, ""I've practically organized it all myself.""

""Well, we need you there ASAP--""

She leaned back, her eyes becoming a calmer hazel hue, ""Why?""

""Well,"" Taking a sip of his own coffee, the man's eyes flicked around the room, looking everywhere but at his daughter, ""We already have women and muscle up there, Leoluca is working on paying off the Guardian's up there, product is in position, we just need to give the new club a grand opening...""

""So what?"" she took in the coffee's aroma before taking another sip, ""You would like me to sing? Correct? Promote it, make sure everything goes smoothy? I'm sorry--wasn't this already part of the plan?""

""Yes. But there's a step two now.""

Her eyes shot up from the sweet coffee, ""A step two?""

""Yes.""

Setting the cup gently on a napkin, Lucania tilted her head, ""What, pray-tell, is step two, father?""

""It's..."" The man gripped the bridge of his nose, ""Damnit, Lucia, I can't do this...""

Lucania's irises became blue with concern, ""What is it?""

From his pocket, the man pulled out another cigar and a gold lighter, Lucania took this as her cue to pull out one of her own cigarettes, he lit them both, and after the pair blew a plume of smoke into the balcony air, he continued, ""It's a suicide plan.""

She tilted her head.

""Come on Lucia, you're a smart enough girl to know who this is.""

The pair spoke at once; ""Paolo.""

Lucanio leaned back in his chair, smoke pouring out of his mouth as he spoke, ""He's playing political, Lucia, but right now he's got us by a vice grip to the balls. My father is basically senile, he'll do whatever the desert rat whispers into his ear, which, effectively, leaves Paolo in charge of the operations like this."" He took another puff of his cigar, ""He knows full well that you're my lieutenant, and once the Don goes, you'll be my Sottocapo-- So he's gunning for you. You have seniority and blood over him... but he married that stupid girl--""

Lucania slammed the table, her eyes instantly shifting to a fierce red, ""My <span class=""bb-i"">sister</span>, your <span class=""bb-i"">daughter</span>.""

""...Right."" His eyes became downcast, ""He married Lucina. I don't know how-- neither of us like it, but he did it. Now he's family, and if he can get rid of you...""

Lucina's eyes became a contemplative hazel, ""... When you become Don, he'll be your Sottocapo...""

""Mhmm."" He looked over the railing with his cigar in hand, the same position he had when Lucania had first arrived.

Lucania sipped her coffee, ""So then. What's my suicidal part two?""

""After opening night in Russel City, you'll need to head straight to Tas.""

Another sip, ""Mmmm, don't we have a protection deal with the Aqueous Yakuza? This isn't sounding horribly suicidal so far.""

""Lucia-- he wants you to take out the River Dragon Triad--""

She practically coughed up her coffee, ""<span class=""bb-i"">What!?</span> I thought--""

""We do-- our amnesty with the Aqueous Yakuza still stands. This is actually part of a new deal we're brokering. See, the Aqueous Yakuza exists entirely in Edor and Gate's Pass, they're large cities, but the Aqueous Yakuza want to expand, and right now they're honor bound not to attack the small Triads that lay claim to the smaller Aqueous towns...""

""But we aren't.""

""Exactly.""

The hazel in her ireses deepened in thought, ""But then, why just me?""

""Lucia-- Paolo wants this to fail.""

""I'm sorry?""

""He's playing both sides. There will be a war either way, but if we attack Tas and fail, word will spread quickly, and the Triads, united, can declare this as an act of war on the Yakuza and The Family. The Yakuza will be too weak for us to go into business with them--my thinking is that Paolo might have a stake in that.""

Lucania watched as the smoke she blew out billowed into the air. She stood quickly, ""Alright.""

""Alright?""

""Yes, alright."" She began to walk to the door, ""If I leave now, I can make it to Russel City with some daylight left.""

""Lucia..."" her father followed her to the door, placing a hand on her shoulder as her own was on the doorknob.

She turned, a smirk on her face, ""The River Dragon Triad... They're honor bound by traditional Aqueoun belief's too, correct? If I challenge the leader formally, he'll be bound by tradition to face me one on one...""

A grin was slowly forming on her father's face.

As she opened the door, she mused out loud, ""Perhaps I'll even get myself a private champion or two... I hear Russel City has a huge unemployed Immortal population, I'm sure they'd be willing to help me with our dilemma for the right price...? Oh, farewell father..."" 

Lucanio yelled after her as she sauntered down the hallway, ""You're too smart for your own good!! That wit is gonna get you killed one day, Lucia!!!""</div>"

The road east from Forbes was hot and unforgiving, especially to a slave. Being a member of The Forsaken was hard enough, but knowing how they treated one another, a man could only imagine how they might treat a slave. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Can’t you pull those carts any faster, you fucking useless sacks of shit?”</font> Shouted a tough looking man riding atop his motorcycle. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“I pull you lot out of the mines and this is how you repay me?”</font> No complaints were lodged, no backtalk was given, the men just started pulling faster. They had all served at least five years in the mines, and no one made that long without learning how to bite their tongues.

A grizzled looking man in his early thirties stood beside another, somewhat older man as they pulled one of the many carts in their caravan, bound for Harlem. <font color=""#92278f"">“Do you remember the promise that I made to you, my friend?” The younger whispered. “I have a feeling you will be seeing your son soon.”</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">“What are you trying to say, Bento? You surely can’t take them all.”</font> Sure enough, there where nearly 100 men armed to the teeth all around them, some riding motorcycles, while others simply walked. The caravans were carrying too much to use their trucks for. Besides, no bandits would dare attack such a large force of Forsaken…

<font color=""#92278f"">“Do you see those glimmers of light shining off the dunes? Someone is either really brave, or really stupid.”</font> Around the caravan the winds quietly stirred, <font color=""#92278f"">“Either way, you’ll be free within the hour, I swear it…”</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">“What are you rats whispering about? You know the punishment for conspiracy, Promos! And you won’t survive it again…“</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“No, no, Master Darius, old man Promos and I were just discussing how ugly your mother must been to shit out a piece of garbage like you.”</font> Bento spat back. Leaping off his motorcycle Darius stormed over to the mouthy slave while one of his friends fired a shotgun in the air to stop the caravan.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">“What the fuck did you just say, you rotten little shit! Bare your back before I kill you where you stand!”</font>

“Well, I’m really sorry, Master, but I can’t do that while my hands are chained to this cart you see…” As Bento dug his grave even deeper, Darius was already unlocking his cuffs and dragging him out in front of all the other slaves and the gathering Forsaken, all excited for a good lashing. Obediently, Bento unbuttoned his dirty white shirt and got down on his knees, exposing a back covered almost entirely with latticed with scars from old lashings and the torture he had first received upon being discovered in Forsaken territory. Darius raised his whip above his head, when suddenly from out of the dunes a chorus of gunshot rang out, followed by cries of pain, and surprise. Several of their masters had fallen in the first few seconds of the assault, the opportunity that Bento had been waiting for every second of the past 6 years had finally arrived. While the other slaves dropped their carts and ducked for cover, Promos called out to his closest friend, <font color=""#0072bc"">“Bento! Get down! Our efforts will have been in vain if you get yourself killed now!”</font> The old man shouted from behind one of the carts. But his cry fell on deaf ears, and a heart consumed with a cold rage.

In one move, Bento rose from his knees, and pulled his Master’s prized bowie knife from its sheath while he was distracted and trying to locate the source of the gunfire. Putting his Master into a choke hold from behind, Bento then proceeded to plunge the knife deep into the man’s gut. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“You whore!”</font> He groaned, coughing up blood as he spat out his words. Bento threw the his keys over to Promos, before he let Darius crumple down to the ground, gingerly swiping the man’s 357 magnum from its holster and tossing it far out of reach as he did. There was no need for guns right now…

For years he had practiced using his power in secret, always on a small scale, but he had figured out the principles and workings of his abilities well enough. Bento spun round to check on his friend and found that Promos had already started freeing the other slaves from their chains. With them taken care of, now it was really time to see what kind of chaos he could be capable of. Calling upon the powers granted to him by fate swept, the Immortal summoned powerful winds up under his cart, throwing into the air, before it came crashing back down on top of a group of Forsaken. It was quickly becoming apparent that those responsible for the attack were far from the average rogue bandit group. Despite fighting an overwhelmingly larger force from a position of little cover, these guys were ripping through the Forsaken.

Making his way towards the smashed up cart that he had destroyed, Bento and took cover as he knelt down to see what goods had spilled out. He broke open a few crates full of bullets before he found what he really wanted, a box of grenades. <font color=""#92278f"">“Promos! Feed ‘em to me!”</font> He shouted, pointing at the box on the ground, grabbing two to start himself off with. It was time to test out the one theory he hadn’t been able to test while in captivity. Concentrating his efforts, the windcaller summoned a vortex of wind which lifted him off the ground, to a solid vantage point.

<font color=""#0072bc"">“You’re flying Bento! You’re flying!”</font> Promos cried out with joy, rushing over to the box of grenades.

<font color=""#92278f"">“I am the raging storm!”</font> He called out, drawing the Forsaken’s attention, <font color=""#92278f"">“I am the fury of one thousand slaves! And you will feel my wrath as I rain down fire, to scorch you from this earth!”</font> Pulling the pins on his grenades, the windcaller threw them high into the air, and spiked them down towards his enemies. Promos immediately caught on and started tossing up primed grenades for his friend to bombard the Forsaken with. Bento’s heart was beating extraordinarily fast, and his vision started to blur, but the storm raged even harder as more explosions tore through the caravan. The attackers had taken this opportunity to close in on the remaining Forsaken, and with the combined assault, easily routed the maybe 20 remaining soldiers still capable of running.

As he sunk back to the ground, the former slave wobbled uneasily on his feet, stumbling through his steps as he advanced towards the broken body of his former master. <font color=""#00a651"">“Halt!”</font> A voice shouted from behind him, <font color=""#00a651"">“We are from the Motum Diversum! Do not shoot, and you will all be given sanctuary within our territory!”</font> Bento did not turn around, and simply raised a hand, gesturing for the Diversum troops to wait. He only needed a moment. Darius had seen him coming and was desperately crawling towards his discarded weapon.

<font color=""#92278f"">“Oh Master, it seems you’ve been wounded.”</font> Bento mocked, regaining his composure as he delivered a hard kick to the man’s side, knocking him onto his back. <font color=""#92278f"">“Let me get that for you.”</font> He continued, scooping up the revolver. <font color=""#92278f"">“Hmm. Seems a little sandy. I wonder if it still fires?”</font> Bento cocked the hammer and fired it haphazardly into the ground next to Darius’ head. The man screamed in fear.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">“Please don’t kill me! I was good to you!”</font> He pleaded.

<font color=""#92278f"">“You were good to a slave. But now, I am a man, and you are no more than a howling beast to the source of all things, for this world has no more need for a beaten dog such as you.”</font>Bento delivered the second shot into the man’s skull. “I do like your vest though…” He added, casually crouching down and pulling the knife from his former master’s gut. <font color=""#92278f"">“May have to do a little repair work, but that shouldn’t be too hard.”</font>
<font color=""#00a651"">“I don’t want any trouble, Immortal.”</font> A man’s voice said, coming from behind him, <font color=""#00a651"">“This is Forsaken territory, so as far as I’m concerned there’s no need to… Wait, is that you Major?”</font>

As Bento turned around, he stared back into a pair of familiar eyes. <font color=""#92278f"">“It’s been a long time Captain Thorne…”</font> He replied, the wisps of grey that latticed his steel colored eyes obscuring any emotion. Through the deadened, hard look on his face, Thorne could see the hardships of the past six years.

<font color=""#00a651"">“It’s actually Colonel now…”</font> Thorne said, sadness in his heart.

<font color=""#92278f"">“Congratulations.”</font>
<font color=""#00a651"">“Christ… I’m so sorry, Quine.”</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“You searched as hard as you could.”</font> Bento turned away and busied himself looting Darius’ corpse. Silence hung in the air for a little while.

<font color=""#00a651"">“You know you can’t come back now, right?”</font> Thorne finally said.

<font color=""#92278f"">“I’m an Immortal now.”</font>
<font color=""#00a651"">“Yeah… Is there anything I can do for you at least?”</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“I assume this was an officially unsanctioned raid, yeah? Plausible deniability and all?”</font> Bento asked, to which Colonel Thorne nodded. <font color=""#92278f"">“Spare these men the refugee camps. Give us a ride to Harlem and whatever salvage we can carry.”</font>
<font color=""#00a651"">“Deal”</font>
<div class=""bb-center"">---</div>

It was near 7 o’clock by the time they reached Harlem, pulling up outside the house where Promos had once lived. It didn’t look like much, but to Bento, it was beautiful. A 20 year old man stepped outside to see what was going on. Quietly, old man Promos climbed out of the car’s trunk and slowly walked toward him, trembling. The boy ran into his father’s arms as they both collapsed to their knees, weeping away the pain of nearly 8 years separation. The Major hopped down from the trunk, wearing a pair of pilfered sunglasses, and stood back in the road as an older woman entered the doorway, her hand covering her mouth. Bento watched the old man rise to his feet as his son helped him walk to over to his wife.

<font color=""#00a651"">“I want you to have this.”</font> Thorne said, walking up beside him and handing Bento a scoped M14 battle rifle. <font color=""#00a651"">“I remember you used to be a pretty good shot back in the day.”</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“You know, Colonel, working in those mines, I never expected to see anything beautiful till the day I died…”</font> The pair looked on as a family cried tears of joy at the resurrection of a man long thought dead. The scene backlit by the orange sky of The Dust set beautifully ablaze by a setting sun. <font color=""#92278f"">“I only wish it wasn’t raining.”</font> A single tear rolling down a dirty cheek, eyes hidden behind tinted glass.</div>"
125,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-13 05:45:00,Firecracker_,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was nearly a chore to open the door, with his hands shaking so bad. Ulver found his shaky steps to the counter, and plopped down on a stool before he collapsed. The bartender was at the other end of the bar, a distance that seemed to continuously stretch in Ulver’s mind, seeming farther by the second. Ulver pried his helmet off, desperately trying to get some fresh air on his face. Sweat was pouring down his face, his arms shaking uncontrollably. Ulver’s helmet landed with a loud thud on the counter, drawing some glances and stares from the few other patrons in the bar. His hair, with bright, nearly white tips and deep brown curls, was nearly soaked in sweat, and he found it hard to keep his breath. The bartender noticed the grim shape of the man sitting down at the far end, and approached slowly and cautiously. 

He called from a fair distance, “Hey buddy! You feeling alright man?” He said, concern in his voice, accompanied by some lingering suspicion. 

Ulver looked up, startling the bartender with sudden eye contact with his fierce eyes. He raised a shaking hand up “Y-yeah” he replied in his gravely, yet shaky voice “I j-just really need a drink, man.” He said, squirming uncomfortably in his seat. 

The sweat that had started on his face had spread along his body, his back and arms and legs all beginning to dampen his clothes. He exhaled roughly, and started peeling his belongings off of his body, backpack and weapons, and then jacket, until his was in his muscle shirt, stained and dirty, wet with perspiration. 

“A-are you sure that’s what you need man? I can get some wa-”

“No no no no no, I <span class=""bb-b"">need</span> booze, something, fast. Hell, give me some fuckin’ rubbing alcohol, something.”

The bartender took a few steps closer, never breaking eye contact even as Ulver’s eyes shot rapidly around, beads of sweat falling around them. “I- I don’t think-”

Ulver slammed his fist on the counter, jumping up from his seat. He readied himself to yell, but his voice caught itself in his throat, with the bartender drawing a pistol from his back, with another patron in the bar standing with the both of them, a shotgun trained on Ulver. The patron was one of quite a few years, maybe a few years older than Ulver himself. Pretty heavy bags underneath his eyes, and a waxed mustache hung from his lips. His eyes were hardly visible in the dim light of the bar, but Ulver could feel them stare into his own. It appeared that his job was to protect the bar, as none of the other patrons, all unarmed, were surprised that he had brandished a weapon so quickly.

Ulver stared back at him, his own eyes equally crazed. He knew it would be death to reach for his weapons, so he opted instead to slowly sink back down onto his stool, switching eye contact between the two armed men.

The guard spoke up, his voice deep and experienced, even a bit intelligent. This wasn’t his first rodeo. “Now, you’re goddamn lucky we even let your kind in this town, and you’re even luckier that I don’t fill your chest with buckshot. You’ll behave yourself in this bar, or you’ll leave it in a goddamn box, you understand me, boy?”

“Loud and clear.” Ulver said, staring intently at the man.

The guard didn’t respond, and chose to instead slowly lower his shotgun, setting it back down against the counter before returning to his own stool.

Ulver turned back to the bartender, and spoke up, a bit calmer. “Listen, I’m going through serious fucking withdrawal. I need some shit, or I’m going to fucking die. Now, please, serve me some damn drink.”

The bartender, who had also put away his weapon, carefully moved to the cabinet, pulling a bottle of tequila out, before sliding the whole bottle down the bar. Ulver took the bottle, wildly prying the lid off, taking a few deep mouthfuls. It burned intensely in his throat, but almost immediately, Ulver could feel the warmth spreading slowly, his symptoms beginning to calm down.

“Maybe you should kick the habit, man.” The bartender said, watching Ulver pant and drink from a distance.

“How much is the bottle?” Ulver replied.

---

After a few knocks, the door in front of Ulver opened, his sight being occupied by a slender, attractive woman, dressed in mainly utility clothing with bandoliers and and a handgun under her arm.  She looked down at Ulver from the higher step, almost annoyed that he even knocked. Before Ulver could talk, her eyes fell to his helmet that he had in his arm, and instantly recognized him.

“Oh, my god! You’re Sandman! Alrighty, come in, we’ve been expecting you.” She said, grabbing his hand and pulling him inside the building. 

He followed her lead, as she dragged him by the hand through the building, a Peacekeeper office serving Aspin’s citizens in the business district. There were many officers and secretaries moving around the office, papers being moved and Peacekeepers being deployed, offenders being brought in for processing. The woman guided Ulver through all the chaos, with Ulver catching many curious and suspicious looks from the criminals and officers alike. His sandy dusters and metal helmet drew much contrast from the still sandy, yet cleaner and more symmetrical uniforms of the officers.

The woman quickly guided Ulver down a narrow hallway, with many doors leading to many different offices and sections of the building, before leading to large, heavy wooden double doors. The girl knocked, and didn’t wait for a response before opening, with two men staring back at the two of them. One was behind a desk, he was an older man, face lightly wrinkled with graying hair starting from the bottom. He was wearing a tattered kevlar vest, a large patch reading “CHIEF” across the front. A <a href=""http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/lenydiaz/cc1-grey-cadet-cap-hat.jpg"">hat</a> was sat on his desk, with a gray over coat was hung on a rack behind him. He was obviously the chief of the Aspin Peacekeepers. The other man was also adorned in Peacekeeper attire, but his face was hidden by a mask, made for breathing in the sandy environment, a respirator of sorts. The chief spoke up first.

“Ah, Mindy. I see you’ve taken it upon yourself to bring the Immortal directly to my office. You’ll have to be reprimanded for that later.”

“W-wha, uh, o-oh god, sir, I’m sorry I-I didn’t-”

“Of course you didn’t think, you never do. You are relieved, Mindy.”

“B-but, Sir-”

“You are <span class=""bb-i"">relieved</span>, Private. Leave.” The Chief replied coldly.

The girl left, defeated, without a word. Ulver watched as she walked off, and then turned back to the chief, who was already staring at him. 

“Take a seat, Mr. Rakis.”

“Wait, wait, how d-”

“I’m one of few security chiefs of the Gaens, Sandman. Don’t be stupid. I do my research. Now, take a seat or get out of my office.”

Ulver mumbled something, and took a seat in the chair next to the masked man, on the opposite side of the desk as the Chief. They both looked at Ulver, with Ulver returning the gaze, before the chief started talking, softer than before.

“I’ll get to the point, Sandman. There has been a series of murders and robberies in and around this city, and the people are getting scared. This type of violence isn’t very...usual in Gaen territory. It’s very out of character for this city, especially. Most are busy with scientific research and working with the ARK parts. No one has time for banditry here, and I’m not about to let it become commonplace. Not in my city.” The Chief stopped talking, and as if it were a planned cue, the masked man began talking. His voice was tact and youthful, and very direct.

“My boys have seen him a few times. No accomplices. Just one lone wolf operator, breaking in, killing the inhabitants of a house, takes all valuables and then he leaves, with not even so much as a fingerprint left. He’s good, experienced. He’s done this before, and possibly with a group before. He doesn’t appear to have any connections to a certain faction, but the brutality of the murders could suggest the Forsaken.”

Ulver spoke, “Well, brutality isn’t exactly specific to any tribe or faction. What about those weird fuckers up north?”

The Chief spoke up “Edenites? No, impossible. They never leave, and no one enters. There’s no fathomable way they’ve found their way this deep in Gaen territory. Are you insane?”

“I’m just saying, man. We don’t know what they’re capable of, this could be their first strike against the outside world.”

“No no, this is either a Forsaken lone wolf or bandit lone wolf.” The masked man piped up.

“Well, his loyalties don’t matter, what matters-”

“Yes, his loyalties DO matter. I don’t know if you heard, but the Motum Diversum attacked and wiped out an entire Forsaken convoy 6 months ago. Miraculously, it hasn’t led to total war between them, but the last thing we need is a campaign of death taken upon us by the Forsaken.” The chief interrupted.

“You and I both know the Forsaken don’t have the time or interest in attacking the Gaens, chief, one lone tribal isn’t going to start a crusade against you. If the Motum can survive without warfare after wiping out a whole convoy, I find it hard to believe that one lone little prick is going to make much a difference to those animals. I know the Forsaken, Chief, and I know you know that. They couldn’t give a shit about one lone wolf. A convoy, maybe, but nothing this small. They probably don’t even know the fucker’s even out here.”

“I don’t care if The Professor himself is kissing the King’s feet and sacrificing his first born son to him, I don’t need political repercussions in this. You scout the guy out, find out what his motives are. If he’s a bandit, you can kill him with no hesitation, and keep what you find there along with the money we give you. If he’s Forsaken, or any other faction for that matter, you capture him, <span class=""bb-i"">alive, mind you</span>, and you bring him back here for questioning, and leave the stolen goods as evidence. Are we clear on this agreement, Mr. Rakis?”

Ulver sighed, and gave a single nod of the head. The Chief exhaled, almost as if to release the stress of the situation he’d been holding in. He slid his chair back, opening a drawer. He pulled out a small silver case, which opened to reveal almost brand-new looking high grade rounds. The Chief took 2 rounds out, and tossed them to Ulver, who threw his hands up in surprise to catch them.

“That’s the prepayment. You get the job done,<span class=""bb-i"">how I want it</span>, and you’ll get the rest of it. You know how it goes. Now, get out of my office before my superiors investigate me for association with an Immortal. And make your exit quickly and quietly. I don’t need my officers thinking their Chief is some sort of mutant lover.”

“Wouldn’t want that, would we?” Ulver responded, sarcastically, even a bit toxically, as he pulled his metal helmet over his head.

“I still don’t trust this guy, chief. Immortals are a destructive bunch of mutants.” The masked man spat, staring at Ulver.

“Go fuck yourself, bud. I’m the best damn hunter on this island. You <span class=""bb-i"">need</span> me.”

“Why, you mutant fuck-” The man said, rising to his feet.

“<span class=""bb-b"">Enough</span>. Wolff, if I recall correctly, your squadron has let this guy escape three times in the last month. I’ll hear nothing of unreliability, from you, or anyone else in this precinct. Off, to your stations, you’re on rooftop watch for today.”

The masked man said nothing, simply staring at Ulver as he walked out, making sure to bump his shoulder as he passed the bounty hunter, in his walk to the door. 

“I’m off to find this bandit, Chief. Try not to talk shit to any more employees, huh?”

“What do I pay them for?” The Chief said, cracking the first smile Ulver had seen him crack during the whole conversation.

Ulver chuckled, and walked out, leaving a considerable amount of sand in the place he sat.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Blackened blood slowly oozed it's way down nearly identical flesh, the difference only between the consistency and texture of the two. It trickled its way down towards a hand that bared no fingers, replace by midnight colored talons, twice the length of  normal appendages. The creature's breath came out in hot plumes of steam against the coarse desert earth. It was low to the ground, poised on all fours, it's heart beating fast sending animalistic adrenaline coursing through its quivering body. Its claws dug into the dirt, its body pressing low against the soil, unfazed by the sharp rocks or barbs that littered the area. Normally it could barely been seen, stained by the darkness of the very night it was prowling in, but its prey was clever, it had already been seen. Now it was about the combat, the pure primal surge of blood lust quivered through its body in anticipation. It took one step forward, the soft sound of its claw piercing through the packed soil as audible as a gunshot in its focused state. It was a coil ready to be unbound, a tempest of fury to be unleashed at the slightest provocation, not that it needed any. The acrid scent of fear and sweat filled its nostrils, made it salivate with desire. It wanted to kill.

Another soft step rippled across the creature's ears, but not it's own. The girl had moved, a cautious step to one side. Her goggles pushed up, her pale moon eyes squinting to focus on the creature's dark mass, camouflaged against the backdrop of the night, with only the moonlight for contrast, providing the slightest of outlines. The creature flinched a step back as the human girl gave of a bright glow, like that of the afternoon sky. It took the creature a moment to focus on the blurs of moving light, how it crackled like a campfire, how it broke off and danced among itself like a flock of wild birds. The creature bared its teeth, a deep growl passing through it's pointed teeth, also colored one with the shadows. There are no color to this creature, just the inky blackness of night. It was like the grim reaper, the feral bringer of death dressed in it's cloak of darkness, smelling only of despair and decay.

The girl's fingers moved and the blue light danced between her fingers, skating across her soft flesh. The creature's growl grew to a crescendo, the girl tensed up in response, assuming a low crouch. A sudden flash of lightning split the heavens above, follow by a thunderclap of such force that the very earth seemed to tremble beneath its might, small rock and pebbles blown away by the force of the gale it created. Both the girl and the creature acted at the same moment, as if signaled by a heavily director to begin a symphonic dance of death. The girl shot the sky light at the creature, it howled in pain and rage as the light seared a burning path across its body, a plume of dark blood spraying into the air, forming into an abstract pattern as it collided with the ground. The creature met the girl claws first, it's maw open as it prepared to tear out her throat, her arms folding too slowly in a desperate, terrified act of defense against the large beast.

The collision resulted in no blood, no wounds and no death on either account. The creature's momentum did not cease as it barreled into the girl, it dissolved into a cloud of thick black smoke. The girl stumbled back, expecting the radiating pain of the creature's claws and teeth tearing into her, stunned into shocked silence by the resulting cloud of smoke swirling about her as if she were the eye of a gathering storm. It increased in speed, whipping up clouds of dust and small debris around her, encasing her in a whirling sphere of dark smoke. She made a move as if to run out of the tempest around her when it suddenly collapsed onto her body, fabricating a dark covering around her. The smoke solidified into something more, becoming heavy on her skin. She fell to the ground as her vision wavered, a wave of dizziness and nausea sweeping across her small form. The weight increased, the pressure of it squeezing every inch of her body, molding to her form. She tried to pick herself up, struggling to brace herself on her knees and hands. Her breath came out in a hot mist, brushing softly across the rough desert soil. Her body shook with adrenaline, sparked by a mixture of fear and confusion. She howled in frustration.

She was the creature.</span>
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Alexandria woke with a start, her heart catching in her chest. She breathed rapidly, the wave of terror slowly washing off of her. It took her a moment to gather her bearings, squinting against the harsh desert sun peeking in through a partially closed canopy of tan cloth. Alex removed her goggles from her forehead, wiping her brow free of sweat and using one end of her white, dirt encrusted shirt to clean them. She stood slowly, bracing her hand against the warm, metal benches to either side of her. Her pulse returned to a normalized rate as the situation dawned on her. She looked at her hands, wiggling her fingers to make sure she was in control of them. She felt a bit silly for doing so, it had just been a dream after all.

Her scarlet jacket, with its attached cloak and cowl, and her similarly colored pants lay folded up neatly as makeshift pillows. She chuckled at herself a bit nervously, letting out an exasperated sigh, both of which were audibly dry. Alex licked her parched lips, the dry claws of thirst dragging at her throat. Her <a href=""http://confessionsofaprepper.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/pak.jpg"">Pack</a> lay next to her folded garments, positioned protectively underneath the beige metal that once formed the seats for soldiers, and next to that her canteen.


A few moments later and she was once again sweating underneath her brilliant red garments, though not so much as she used to, living the life of a scavenger one does become somewhat become accustomed to the heat. She smiled blissfully as the cool metal of the canteen met her lips, the liquid soothing her dry throat. Clasping the canteen back onto her belt once more, she walked through the back of the <a href=""https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2239/2098457162_e8ff06a085_z.jpg?zz=1"">personnel truck</a> towards the canopy, the entirety of the vehicle colored to blend in with the desert, at least from a distance. She peered through the thick curtain of fabric, out across the expanse of dirt and brush. The truck was in a small stand of desert trees, which consisted mostly of thorns and bark. There wasn't much tree about them, not like what The Gaens were growing. 

A small puff of dust rose rapidly into the air, curling around Alex's boots as she hopped out of the truck. She scratched her limbs, smiling once more at the relief of her quietly popping joints. She wasn't sure how long she had been out, long enough to become stiff from laying on the hard, corrugated metal. She had left early morning, well before dawn. The night had just begun to shake off its darkest layers, slowing changing its way from deep black to sickly gray. She figured she was only a couple of hours out, bringing her back to an earlier thought. She should really invest into a watch.

A frown pulled at the corners of her mouth as she walked around the truck, absent minded running her hand across the warm, mottled metal of sand, beige, and warm, light brown. A low 'hmm' grumbled from her throat as her mind pressed the matter. This stupid rumor she was following was beginning to interfere in her daily life. Not only did she have to change residences, although her drab little one bedroom wasn't too horrible, she also had to hide from the Guardians, who had her picture plastered on every corner.

<font color=""red"">”Conspiracy... Treason... Terrorism... Murder, Assault,”</font> She trailed off, slightly amused as she recounted the list of charges in her head. She flung open the driver door to the truck, her calf muscles flexing as she lifted her little body up into the cab, which rested at an ample height from the ground. It had three steps, and even then she had to stretch her muscles to get up the first one. Not to mentioned the adjusted bench seat, so that she didn't have to struggle to see over the dash. Why anybody would make such a large vehicle was beyond her, apparently nobody tried to accommodate the height impaired anymore. Though it was more than useful for carrying her scavenged goods, and even then it could haul a lot of scrap.

The pulled the key from one of her belt pouches, and a moment later the engine roared to life. She cranked the driver's side window down, just as an overly warm breeze drifted through the small stand of trees and brush. She pumped the petal, also <span class=""bb-i"">slightly</span> adjusted to better satisfy her size, and the engine growled in response. A puff of black smoke shot out from the rear exhausts, one running vertical along each rear side of the cab. The faint memory of her earlier dream floated across her consciousness. She shook it off, blaming the weird dream on the heart of the afternoon sun. Though she knew that wasn't true, it wasn't the first time she had this dream. It was increasing in frequency too, plaguing her much more often than she would like.

The truck roared to life as it's tires churned up the soil, its massive weight taking only a moment to gain traction. The front of the truck has a large, angled plate mounted on it with cut grooves in the metal at set intervals, a piece which used to belong to the front end of a train, which Alexandria used to its full purpose without hesitation; by mowing down a very unfortunate tree. It's thin trunk, probably about the size of her waist, cracked and shattered, falling beneath all  six wheels as the truck ripped of chunks of bark in it's search for traction. A second letter and Alex felt the truck heave over the tree, her face contorting with a deep smirk in appreciation for the destruction of nature. Or just destruction really. Or perhaps it was just the feeling of owning her very own, scavenged machine of destruction, even if it was mainly for freight.

She found the small trail she had been following out here before she had given up, making a mental note to talk to her contact once she got back. She was getting fed up with this rumor, but she wanted it to be true so badly is actually hurt, deep pangs of longing in her gut. This had made the fourth dead lead in two months, and since word of her <span class=""bb-i"">'murderous nature'</span> got out, or plasted on streets corners with her face on it, as hidden and covered as she usually kept it, nobody wanted to associate with her anymore. There fear of Guardians, and probably herself. Most likely it was the fear of her, but that didn't stop her. She wasn't afraid to shake people down, just because she was small...

She stopped herself mid thought, unclenching her teeth as the truck rumbled and bounced down the uneven road. There was supposedly word of a meeting site out here, though the rough terrain had made the journey much longer than a map would anticipate, she was still only a couple of hours west, near the Forsaken border. And she had found nothing. No trails, no clues, no signs, no nothing. Now the only thing she had to walk away with was that dream she had. Maybe she should invest in one of those ridiculous cure-all tonics.

Maybe it would kill her.

The truck plodded along the beaten trail, with Alexandria fuming silently at the wheel. It didn't really make her feel better, but not paying attention to the drive was wasting time quicker than just staring down the road. Though if she had been paying attention she wouldn't have missed the feral hound running by, no doubt trying to find its pack. Usually feral hounds didn't hunt until the night, but there were a few cases of them getting desperate enough to leave their burrows during the day. Though the sun was a hot as ever, causing waves of heat to waver in the distance. Thankfully Alex's goggles were pressed tightly to her face, keeping the sweat from her eyes. Baking inside a hot metal truck, in heavy clothing to shield against the sun's rays probably didn't help her any, nor did it improve her mood. She shivered as a cool bead of sweat eased its way down her cheek, catching across the scarlet hem of her bandanna, tied securely around her mouth and nose to keep out the considerable amount of dust her truck was kicking up.

An hour later, as the sun reached its pinnacle in the sky, Alex found herself as the hollow, smoldering wreck of another vehicle. Some sort of small, four door car had been set aflame, the metal was still warm to the touch, and the upholstery, or what was left of it, still let off little smoldering plumes of charred smoke. She spent a few moment observing the wreck from a distance, you never knew what kind of traps people laid. She spend another few looking at the wreck, from a shorter distance. From her estimate, she figured it was probably some sort of fuel injector leak igniting off of poorly insulated wires. There was no crash, and no signs of attack. Just some acrid smelling smoke, and two badly burned corpses.

Alexandria moved back towards the back of her truck, pulling the latch to let the heavy tailgate down. She grabbed the edge of it, and threw her legs up and over, rolling onto the bed of the truck. At the far end of the bed a section of the seats had been cut away to place a metal box, made from a metal frame and walled with chain link fence. Here she held tools she couldn't normally carry, or had a very selective purpose; like the thick hose she removed from it. Underneath a small portion of the bench seats she kept a row of  <a href=""http://www.lexingtoncontainercompany.com/NATO_JERRY_CANS_INSTOCK.jpg"">gas cans</a>, about five in total, totaling up to a maximum of 25 gallons of gasoline. Which is exactly what she was checking for now. Hopefully the burned out car's gas tank hadn't ignited. Most of the scorched areas were around the front and the interior fabrics. She made her way over to the wreck, looking at the burned corpse of the driver as she passed.

<font color=""red"">”Hope you don't mind comrade, I think I need this more than you.”</font> She said, rather politely, and a tad sarcastically. She had very little respect for people, she was rather cynical, finding great displeasure in society as a whole. She pried open the slightly bent gas covering, obviously the car had one been a restored wreck. All that hard work only to catch yourself on fire. She stuck the hose into the gas tank, and gently coaxed whatever fluid was left out. She was rewarded with a thin trickle of fuel flowing through her hose, though it was a thin hose, no bigger than her thumb. About 5 liters later she found herself stowing away the gas can and the hose, snapping the large lock back into place on the metal crate. She retrieved her prybar from her backpack, now resting on the passenger side of the cab, and nodded towards the burnt corpse of the driver as she moved to pry open the trunk.

The gas tank was a slight disappointment, but the trunk was not. Whoever they were they had obviously left in a hurry. She found two hastily packed suitcases, one of which was a woman's. Clothes always sold pretty well, people obsessed over fashion, and in a world like this most of it had to be looted and restored. Though there was a couple of nice blouses, and a few good shirts Alex would keep for herself. The male's clothing was a bit too large for her, but she chose a few shirts from that anyways. The two suitcases thumped loudly in the back of the truck as Alex threw the suitcases in.

Additionally she had found a nice watch, two clips of dirty rounds that didn't fit her gun, and a moderately tarnished necklace, though the red gem; either real or finely shaped glass; would fetch more than the two pieces of luggage combined. She had also looted one more item for herself, a small tin can of massage oil, which wouldn't do to badly as a sword polish.

The truck roared to life once more, and the two suitcases bounced against the tailgate as the truck lurched forward. Another hour or so back to town and she would find herself the pleasant owner of some new trade, and a hot meal.

A hamburger sounded real nice right about now. Even if it was expensive, and made with questionable meat. She was mostly in it for the zesty crunch of the pickles anyways. She loved pickles.</div>"

(A woman speaks, she has a soothing, smokey voice, with a slightly foreign sound to it)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Ahh... and she finds herself making another one of these recordings... Why? Was the first not enough of the history of my being?""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Hmmmm. I don't know. I couldn't sleep; not a nightmare-- I couldn't get that far. No, I was recalling this awful memory... and... as I lay in my bed, I thought it would make a good tale for someone in the future, trying to understand who, exactly, I was better.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""So, I suppose you could say I'll be making more of these as the memories come, for my own ego's sake.""</span>

(She stifles a yawn)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I've read my share of books about psychology, and it seems to be a common theme that simply talking about one's own troubling memories is a major step towards solving the trauma associated with them. I suppose you could call this memory 'repressed' then, as in, I have tried for a good amount of my adult life to avoid thinking about it. But tonight, perhaps so I can sate my own egotistical desire to talk about myself, the memory won't go away.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""This audiolog is the story of my first love.""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

""<span class=""bb-b"">Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!</span>"" 

The shrill, girlish scream filled the narrow hallways of the hotel, Lucania could feel the vibrations from the shriek as it bounced erratically around her. Her sister certainly had the Family talent for reaching high notes-- but possessed none of the vocal control the sickness had given to Lucania. Had the scream come from any other floor, from any other door, guests would have been disturbed-- or perhaps concerned-- by the piercing howl. However on the 18th floor of the Castalia Hotel, cries such as these were quite a common thing to come from behind door 1818. As it turned out, Lucina Castalia-- Lucy, the Bastard of the Castalia Family, was a noisy girl.

Lucania leaned against the wall next to the door, she listened to her sister stomp about her suite, no doubt throwing clothes around, looking for 'the perfect outfit.' As she crossed her arms, her eyes lit into an amused amber color, ""What? No pearls?""

""No! All my pearl necklaces are gone!! I need them they all go so well with the silver leggings! <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">AHHHHHHHHHHH</span> WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN TO ME!?</span>""

Lucania gave a gentle laugh in response.

""It's <span class=""bb-b"">NOT</span> funny!!"" An obviously frustrated Lucy replied, ""I don't want to have to wear the gold! I'll need to change my... <span class=""bb-b"">UGH... MY EVERYTHING!!</span> Who would do this-- Was it the maid, did the maid take my pearls?""

Lucania gave a shrug she knew Lucy couldn't see, ""I would.""

""<span class=""bb-b"">Ugh!</span> Keep laughing bitch, we'll see how much help I am when you need me to help you find something...""

""I'm absolutely trembling with fear..."" Lucania's gaze made it's way down the hallway, there was a window at it's end, she looked at the position of the rising morning sun, ""You know Lucy, I would like to get there at some point today. Are you sure you aren't already wearing the pearls?""

The movement from inside the suite stopped. Silence followed.

""Oh.""

A moment later, Lucy opened the door, as if exposing herself to the world in some majestic act. Lucania had to admit, her sister wasn't much of an organized criminal, but she did know her fashion. Lucy posed, as if allowing Lucania to assess the hard work that went into what she was wearing. Although she was 10 years her junior, Lucy stood nearly half a foot taller than Lucania, giving Lucy an elegant, slender figure. White and Silver seemed to be the colors of the day, and black, but according to Lucy, black went well with everything. 

The silver leggings were flawless, they melded with the shapely legs of her sister so well it almost seemed as though she may have just painted her legs a chrome color. Recovered and restored from the Old World, of course, not even Motum Diversum's best could produce stitches that flawless. She wore white heels so sharp that they could be considered hold-out weapons and a black tank top that was covered by a glistening silver blazer, one the same shade as the leggings. 

Pearls were wrapped around Lucy's wrists and neck, they sparkled a light contrast to the dark gleam of the silver. It was as if she was going to some meeting for Dust's fashion elite, and not just accompanying Lucania to Russel City. With a sneeze, Lucy broke her pose and the pair began to make their way down the hallway.

""I know, fabulous, right?"" Lucy pulled out an elegant silver cigarette holder as the pair walked, Lucania responded in kind by pulling out her lighter and holding a flame to the cigarette on the end.

Lucania fell into step with her sister as she put her lighter back in her purse, ""You are aware we're going to the famous Russel City slums, right?"" 

Lucy scoffed.

""I just feel as though I should tell you now, while you can still change,"" As they reached the elevator door, Lucania turned toward her sister, the pair maintained a familiar eye contact.

Lucy cracked a smirk, ""Look bitch, you know there isn't enough time in the day for me to change now. Let's hit the road.""

For a moment, Lucania shared in the smile, her eyes became a happy shade of gold. As she moved her hand to call for the elevator, however, they shifted into her more natural, serious brown tone. ""Good. We have a ways to go and we need to make a few stops along the way, we don't need to be terribly early, but it's always nice to make a grand opening <span class=""bb-i"">before</span> the grand opening""

The rustic chime signified the elevator's arrival.

<div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i"">Audiolog. Castalia Family History. The Life of Lucania Castalia Pt. 2</span></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""In my life, one of the things I was never confused about was my sexuality. For as far back as I can remember, I've always identified with the heroes of the stories I would read, the brave knights and princes who would slay some great evil and be rewarded with some attractive princess in the end-- I didn't identify with them character wise, no, in that regard, I've always sided with villains-- I think, mostly, I found myself wanting a wealthy happy ending with a princess.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Obviously I hoped that when I found my princess, she would have more character than the ones typically portrayed in Old Earth fairy tales.""</span>

(She laughs)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I think mother always knew, she never had a problem with my tendencies. Although to be fair, the sexual behaviors a 10 year old displays are very different from the ones a 16 year old displays. To father, my preference was a surprise, and while to his credit, today he accepts who I am, admittedly he's slightly annoyed at the prospect of the next Castalia being adopted, but he accepts me.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""When he found out over a decade ago, he though my preference was the result of some chemical imbalance caused by The Sickness.""</span>

(She laughs again)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I still think it a tad ironic that father was the one who introduced me to her.""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

The armored limo they drove in ran quietly, so silent that the backseat, completely isolated from the front, seemed as if it possessed the stillness of another world. One could get lost in thought when confronted with the isolation it presented, or even simply just watch as the silent expanse of Dust raced across your vision. 

Lucania had often done this when she was a child, on trips out to the desert and neighboring cities she would just look out of the tinted window and think. As a woman she had less time to do this, often because she was re-reading some piece of intelligence or looking over some numbers or discussing a matter of business with her father... She had missed this sensation, the feeling of being driven somewhere and just being able to... watch time pass.

""<span class=""bb-b"">Ugh!!</span>"" Lucy's girlish voice brought Lucania's attention from the passing desert horizon, ""How much longer?""

""Well, we been drivin' for 'bout two hours..."" A voice from the front of the limo replied, Lucania immediately recognized it as that of Diane Rizzuto. Diane was a long time associate of Lucania's, technically her guard, but only technically. Diane's real gifts lied in her ability to drive and her gift of gab. She was a reliable confidante, but she wasn't a guard, she could be trusted to protect a life about as well as a Forsaken could be trusted to bathe.  ""... So how long's that leave us Carmela? 'Bout a week?""

""Four hours."" A low voice grunted. Carmela Shelby, Diane's opposite in all but employer, was a silent and skilled guard. She had already taken several bullets for Lucania and had all the political cunning of a person from Dead End. Fitting, since that was where she claimed to be from. She didn't speak much, which fit Lucania's purposes for her just fine.

""Shot me down quicker than usual today, Carmela!"" Diane gave a annoying laugh, ""I catch you on a red day, huh?""

""Shut up, Diane."" Lucy piped in, ""I appreciate it Carmela."" Lucy's gaze landed upon Lucania's own empty stare toward the horizon, ""So sis, I been meaning to ask-- what is it that we're stopping in Laguna for anyways?""

Lucania's brown eyes flickered into a sadistic orange shade, her trademarked smirk forming on her face, she looked her sister right in the eye, ""I plan on cutting off a man's penis later today, so i figured we should get prayer out of the way before then.""

If there was a level of sound below absolute silence, the limo achieved it.

From the front seat came an audible gulp from Diane, even Carmela's eyes went wide. In the back, Lucy held an expression of horror in contrast to Lucania's sanguine smirk. 

After a moment, Lucy's horror softened and she hit Lucania on the shoulder, ""You bitch! You're such a fucking tease!""

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>
<div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i"">Audiolog. Castalia Family History. The Life of Lucania Castalia Pt. 2</span></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Her name was Salem.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I know. What an odd name, right? Odd though it may be, I thought it was beautiful-- I still do, beautiful in an odd way, just like her.""</span>

(She sighs)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Please don't get the wrong impression, when we became acquainted Salem and I were barely 18, and the relationship didn't even last a year. I'm not still pining after the affections of a love long lost, quite the opposite, in fact. I just think it's important to recall the emotions associated with a particular memory when we relive the past. Blame my father.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""As I said before, it was my father who introduced us. She was the daughter of a Guardian some cretino had killed without orders. When something like this happens, The Family puts together funds to ease the suffer of any widows and find work for any children. It doesn't always work out smoothly, but it's nice when it does. This was one of those instances.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Well, as it turned out, we needed a bookmaker, and Salem was willing, but she needed to learn.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Who do you think father dearest chose to mentor her?""</span>

(She laughs)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Honestly, I don't think we even lasted a week before we found ourselves raiding utility closets whenever we could, looking to steal kisses from each other.""</span>

(She sighs again, taking a longer pause, as if reflecting on the past)

<span class=""bb-i"">""She was beautiful. She had this short blonde hair that was almost white in the sun, she didn't like that about her, I recall multiple instances of her trying to hide it all with a hat she was rather fond of, that didn't matter though, she was beautiful without it. Her skin was soft and dark and freckled... she might have had some Aqueon ancestry now that I think about it... Oh, how I wish I could have asked her.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Ah well...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Her real beauty was how she interacted with the world. This was a time when attitudes toward Immortals, people like me, in Serenity was almost as bad as Russel City today and despite that... when I revealed my nature to her... we hadn't even known each other for 2 months at that point, but...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""...She said she loved me.""</span>

(She sniffles)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Did... you know... that one of the changes to my body, after my Sickness, was that my tears taste like honey?""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I'll tell you this, that had nothing to do with how sweet the tears I cried with her that night were.""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

""Ya know boss, I feel like we never talk anymore."" 

Diane's voice stirred Lucania out of her nap, apparently she was wrong about not being able to get back to sleep, apparently all it took was a monotonous landscape and a ride in one of Dust's most expensive luxury vehicle to lull the workaholic into an unconsciousness. She hadn't had the dream, and she couldn't see Russel City's skyline in the distance, so they couldn't be more than 20 minutes out from Laguna. 

Lucania shook her head to further wake herself before responding to Diane with a strategic, ""I'm sorry?""

Diane responded immediately, ""Ya know boss! Pow wow! Go over plans, shoot the shit! I know Pablo--""

""Paolo."" Lucania corrected. Lucy had fallen asleep as well, and apparently seen fit to use her lap as a pillow, Lucania stroked her younger sister's hair softly, shifting her voice as to avoid waking her.

""--Right, Paolo, Pablo, Paco. S'not like it matters, right?""

Lucania sighed, her gaze looked out of the dark windows onto the yellow countryside of Dust, her eyes shifted a conflicted hazel, ""It matters."" She looked back down at Lucy's sleeping head sadly, ""He's family. We have to respect family.""

""Pffft,"" Diane blew a raspberry, ""Says who? The guy's a dick for sending you in blind so often lately. What's it matter that he's family?--""

Lucania's eyes lit a fiery red, she met with Diane's in the driver's mirror, ""300 years of Tradition, Diane.""

""R-right,"" Diane's eyes shot back to the road, ""Right. I know those eyes, got it, changing subject...""

As Diane thought, Lucania calmed her demeanor and spoke up, ""No brave bandits try to rob the limo today?""

Diane gave a dry chuckle, ""We passed a burning car a few miles from Laguna... Oh! A few minutes ago, there was this group on 'cycles, Carmela was itching for a fight, but they avoided us like the plague, they were bruised up, too."" She chuckled, ""Someone put the fear 'a God in those men...""

""Rightfully so, I'd wager.""

Diane feigned a hurt expression, ""Miss Castalia! Ya mean to tell me you don't believe in the good intentions of the average Dust highwayman!?"" 

Lucania couldn't wipe the smile from her face as she lit one of her cigarettes, ""No Miss Rizzuto, I'm afraid not...""

""Oh, Miss Castalia! How scandalous..."" Diane paused as she thought, ""Hey boss, you hear about Harlem?""

""Hmmm? No, what's going on in Harlem? A Renaissance?""

""A wha...? Nah! Baseball!""

""Based-what?""

""Baseball, ya know? Like the game?""

Lucania tilted her head, ""I've never heard of it.""

""Wha...!? You ain't never heard of baseball? I thought you were like an expert on Old World stuff!""

""I never studied much in the way of sportsology, I'm afraid.""

""Well, where I'm from, in Parkland, the flat sandy lots made it perfect... We played all the time, now I hear they're startin' up a league in Harlem, I'm getting all... Um...""

""Nostalgic?""

""Naw, I ain't gotta fart. I just feel homesick, ya know?""

""Mmmm..."" Lucania gave a small smile to Diane in the rear view mirror, ""Perhaps I'll mention it in the next Family meeting? We're always looking for more opportunities to expand our legal gambling--""

""Ya mean it!? Maybe I can get in and fix a game or two for y'all!""

""I'm sorry? You don't play to win..?""

""Naw, I'm awful. They called me Dizzy foot Diane whenever I went to play. I just think it's fun is all.""

Lucania giggled, ""We should get you horse racing...""

Diane's brow furrowed, ""Whut?""

Lucania raised her voice slightly, ""Horse racing.""

""What's a horse?""

Lucania stifled a laugh. She wasn't even sure that there were any horses in Dust, ""They're like these..."" Her eyes shifted between brown and hazel in confusion, ""...Cars. But instead of gas, they run on carrots and apples.""

""Whoa! Are they some Gaen invention or somethin'?""

<span class=""bb-i"">That was a good question.</span>

Lucania's hazel eyes became darker in thought, ""Not quite... I've been to Aspin numerous times, I've never seen one. I believe they were creatures from the Old World.""

""How is Aspin, boss? I never been.""

""Egalitarian."" Lucania responded without thinking, ""But it's clean, and the nights are quiet... Very boring compared to Serenity."" 

""Well, I'd still like to see it one da--""

""I see horses in my dreams."" Lucania interrupted, ""They're these beautiful muscle beasts... I learned about them from my books, but I've only ever seen them in my dreams. I think they represent something poetically dark, like the end of all life... When I hear them, and I see their colors so vividly, I feel almost hypnotized..."" Her irises became golden, ""They're so... oddly beautiful.""

The limo fell into a deep silence.

Diane sighed, her eyes looked into Lucania's through the rear view mirror, ""Boss-- We really need to get you laid.""

A moment passed, and the pair erupted into laughter. 

<span class=""bb-i"">You aren't wrong, Diane.</span>

Lucy shifted in and groaned in Lucania's lap as the laughter died down. Diane cleared her thought after a few seconds, ""So boss...""

Lucania smirked, ""I'm flattered, but you aren't my type, Diane.""

The Driver's checks flushed a pale red, ""W-what! I wasn't talkin' about that!""

Lucania tilted her head, ""Oh?""

""Yeah... I was just..."" Diane's eyes went back to the road, ""I was just wondering what happened back in Laguna, in the church.""

Lucania's eyes became a more serious brown, ""I went to confess to a priest, Diane.""

""I-I know that's what you said, but..."" Diane sighed, ""Boss, I've known you for a long time. I like to think I know you well enough to gauge what you're feeling... And when you came out of that church... Y-you were cryin'...""

With a sigh, Lucania leaned back in the leather seat, ""You're right. I was.""

""Can I ask why, boss?""

Lucania unclasped her purse and pulled out a fresh manilla folder, as she looked it over, her irises became a mirthful tan, ""Relax, Diane. They were sweet tears of joy.""

""Really? What happened?""

Lucania cracked her signature smirk as she met eyes with her driver, ""I had a religious experience.""

<span class=""bb-i"">""What followed was one of the best years of my life-- Although I suppose that's really only what I felt at the time, isn't it?""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Actually... I think it was only about 8 months. I guess the exact time I spent with her doesn't really matter, does it? She's gone. But the love we shared exists in a place where there's no space or time. I love her, and I know she wants me to be happy.""</span>

(You hear her move away from the microphone, her voice was breaking)

<span class=""bb-i"">""In a word, the time I spent with her was; dreamy.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""We had so many dreams. We would get married! We would have children, adopted orphans, of course, and eventually grandchildren! We planned on spreading her father's ashes all over Dust and... Oh! We were going to be Mrs. Castalia, I'd be her Don, and she would be my doll... I'd retire early, and we could move to Aspin! She adored Aspin. I think, in another life, she was a mathematician, her skill as a bookkeeper supports my thinking. It would be safe and quiet in Aspin-- She wanted so bad to see it.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I had already been several times by that point... I promised her that I'd take a weekend off and just go there...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I'm sorry, Salem...""</span>

(You can hear light weeping, for several minutes following this, there is silence)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I... apologize for losing my composure. I suppose I've underestimated the therapeutic value recording these audiologs might have!""</span>

(She giggles)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Before I move on to her passing, I'd like to discuss about why I loved Salem. I think that it is... important. Perhaps just as much for progeny as my own mental health.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""She was accepting and open, when she thought of something, she put her all into it-- and when she felt something, everyone knew it. She wasn't just aware of her flaws, she wore them like badges of honor. She wasn't original, and she didn't try to be, she was a truly authentic soul, and I loved that about her. This beautiful gestalt, abstract mosaic of a woman...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""And the sex...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""How would Lucina put it?""</span>

(Her voice becomes more girlish and high pitched)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Well, it was off the charts!""</span>

(Her voice returns to normal)

<span class=""bb-i"">""Is it odd that, in many ways, she reminds me of my mother?""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Perhaps I have some kind of reverse Oedipus complex?""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""More than just their shared slender physique, too. They had similar senses of humor, they were both kind and adventurous in the same way-- they even possessed the same taste in music!""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Salem loved hearing me sing, like mother, and her favorite song of mine, by far, just like mother, was <font color=""blue"">Blue Velvet</font>.""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

""Where are you going, sis?"" Lucy stirred as Lucania moved to exit the car, from the open door, a younger, bearded version of their father poked his head into car through the open door, he spoke in a rough voice gained through years of exposure to smoke and whiskey.

""How's it goin', kiddo?""

""Uncle Leo?"" Lucy sat up, ""We're in Russel City already?""

""Pfffft, already she says!"" Diane yelled from the driver seat of the car, ""We've been driving in circles around here for the better part of an hour!""

Lucania forced a dry laugh as she walked over to Diane's side of the limo, ""Is someone not used to maneuvering the slums? It'd be unfortunate if I needed to hire a new driver.""

""N-no boss!"" Diane adjusted her hat, ""Just new streets is all, it'll be easier once I get out of this 'Mug me' sign with wheels and into an actual ride, I swear!""

Lucania was smiling, but her eyes were serious, ""I should hope so."" Lucania sighed, ""You know what I need you to do, correct?""

""A' course, boss!"" Diane smiled an innocent strained smile, ""...But maybe repeat it again? Just for clarity.""

Another sigh, Lucania gripped the bridge of her nose before speaking, ""Take this car to the parking garage. Not difficult. Get another one, one you can maneuver these streets in--""

This was Diane's are of expertise, she adopted a serious demeanor, ""Slum streets are a hard sell, boss-- It's a miracle the Castalia-mobile made it this far. Cars are a no-go, now something like a 'cycle could work...""

""One that can hold all three of us?""

""If y'all are okay with squeezing in real close...?""

""Yes. That will work, as long as you're positive you can get us away from the Guardians.""

""Oh yeah, I'll have y'all out a' there in a flash! I'll steal a 'cycle from the rich part of the city and swoop in to save ya all hero-like...""

Sticking her head into the front part of the car and looking at Lucania through the rolled down glass, Lucy asked, ""Wait... What do you need a getaway driver for...?""

Leo spoke up, putting his arm around Lucania's shoulder, ""Just some security, for the uhh..."" He snapped his finger in thought, ""A little 'promotional event' for the grand opening of the club, you know, just something to let everyone know the Castalias have finally arrived.""

Lucy narrowed her eyes, but before she could object, Lucania reached into the car placing a warm hand on her check, ""Relax, Lucy, I've been planning this for quite a while. It's just a small thing that needs to be done, everything will be fine.""

Lucy's gaze softened, ""Just... be careful, okay?""

Lucania moved in to kiss her sister's check, ""Of course."" As the limo got ready to drive off, Lucania gave a light nod to Carmela in the passenger seat. A nod that in this instance, was discussed beforehand to mean one thing.

<span class=""bb-i"">'When you get to the club, take care of Lucy as if she were me, don't let her leave until I get back.'</span>

The black limo drove off, leaving behind a cloud of light exhaust. Lucania and Leoluca stood alone, surrounded by tall, ramshackle buildings made of sheet metal and scavenged wood. Nothing was new here. In Russel City, the slums were made of the detritus of all of Dust. Those broken, cast aside, tired and poor came here to die and the opportunistic came to try to consume the unwanted. The Winged Guardian's avoided the area like the plague and those that did dare enter were already corrupted by greed and hatred of those beneath them, those they were to protect.

Certainly, there was a goodness here, but only barely. The positivity fed into the great darkness that existed in the slums-- one could barely see the sun from it's streets for a reason. The slums lived forever by consuming itself. It's narrow alleys are chock full of dark forces and vicious secrets. Only hopeless prayers dared enter this frightful maw. Those in power here care not for good deeds or priestly invocations, they're as likely to rape and kill you as greet you with a happy ""good day.""

Lucania took in a loud, deep breath of the sour air, ""Ahhh! You just can't get that in Aspin!""

Gravel and glass crunched under Leo's feet as he began to walk, ""Didn't know you were such a fan of the RC ghetto, kiddo.""

""Mmmm..."" She fell into step at Leo's side as the pair began making their way down a dark side street, ""Leo, I'm a fan of any place that gives me an unfiltered look at human nature-- and then lets me exploit it however I want.""

Leo grunted as the pair turned another corner. 

Even in the lack of light, Leo seemed worn down. His hair was unkempt, he hadn't shaved, his suit was missing a tie and jacket, he was even starting to smell like... the absolute loss that permeated the atmosphere here. Lucania tilted her head, ""Leo, how are you holding up? You seem like you might be going a little native.""

The man gave a long, tired sigh, ""It's just been a hard couple of months, Lucia.""

She placed a hand on his shoulder, the pair stopped walking for a moment, ""You know you're the only one I could trust to help me with this, right?""

He placed a hand on top of her's, ""I know, kiddo."" Their eye contact lingered, Leo knew his purpose and Lucania knew he knew, they didn't need to dwell on it.

As they continued walking, Lucania fished two cigarettes out of her purse, handing one to Leo, she lit them both. ""Who else..."" Lucania began, blowing a plume of cigarette smoke into air already irrevocably polluted, ""Can make deals with Guardians like my amazing uncle Leo? Or move product like Leo? All under the radar? I don't think anyone could, to be completely honest...""

He gave a tired smile, ""Damn right.""

""How much do you plan on drinking tonight, Leo?""

""Enough to forget the last--"" He paused. Three men approached, all appeared to be in varying states of decay, one was unarmed, an almost certainly stolen 9mm gun held by a belt, one had grossly misused kitchen knife, and another, the apparent leader, had wood fashioned into a makeshift bat, nails hammered into the ends. From behind, two more approached, one with patchwork shotgun that didn't appear like it could survive being fired another time, and his companion, unarmed, appeared to be tweaking out.

The leader, the man with the bat, spoke with a sneer, ""Did the lucky couple get lost on the way to the gala?"" His friends snickered, he continued, ""You know the deal, drop it all, girl stays with us, you live.""

Lucania, as this was happening, tried to maintain a serious demeanor, but couldn't help let a giggle slip. 

All eyes were on her.

The shotgun was pointed at her back, the leader brandished his bat, he addressed Leo, ""Your bitch have a death wish or something?""

She took a small step toward the leader, ""Nooo..."" 

<span class=""bb-i"">Another step forward.</span>

""On the contrary,""

<span class=""bb-i"">Step.</span>

""I've actually been craving attention from <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> men...""

<span class=""bb-i"">Another step.</span>

She gave Leo the same look a disappointed lover gives, ""There are some things money just doesn't replace..."" Her hand lingered above the leader's crotch.

He dropped his bat, giving a slight laugh, ""You think you can take me and my boys?"" He gripped Lucania's rump, pulling her in closer.

Lucania's eyes stayed a neutral brown as she ran her fingers across the man's check, she leaned in to whisper in the man's ear, ""All at once.""

She flicked her wrist, raking her sleeve across the man's face. Where he once had two eyes, there was now only one.

Bedlam broke out. The man fell to the ground gripping his bloody, useless eye. Lucania ducked as his companions attack, first the man with the knife, stabbing at the air above Lucania's head, then the other man with his 9, he tried to draw it-- Leo didn't give him a chance, shooting the man twice with his own piece at point blank range. Leo turned to the man with the shotgun, delivering two more shots to the junkie's center of mass before he could completely process what was going on. Behind Leo, Lucania had already slashed the knife user's throat. As the leader continued to scream in pain, the last unarmed junkie, without any other options tried running away. 

He didn't get 5 feet before Leo fired.

Lucania looked at Leo, a smirk on her face, ""You've been keeping the good captain tied up here?""

Leo shrugged, ""Relax Lucia, it's a secure location a few blocks from here, no one's getting to him before you.""

""Hmmm..."" She breathed a sigh of relief, ""Well, then, lets go get him!""

""What about him?"" Leo pointed to the man on the ground.

""Hmmm? Oh..."" Lucania's gaze fell coolly on the man whimpering on the ground, griping at his bloody eye hole. She squatted by the man, ""We can allow him to live,"" Grabbing the man's hair, she brought his face to her own level, she looked into the man's eye, ""Very rarely in life do we receive second chances. Today is yours, I want you to tell any glass shard neighborhood gang you meet that the slums are officially under new management..."" She dropped the man's head back into the alley muck, ""By order of the Castalia Family.""

<span class=""bb-i"">""...""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I remember the exact date; March 2nd, 2373. I found her, in my old suite, at 11:38 that night. I remember it being warm, almost unbearably so. I didn't need to alert father, or the Winged Guardians, my yell was so loud, I know everyone in Serenity knew.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Someone had raped and killed her.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""The events leading up to it don't matter. I've gone over them more times than I care to mention, and it was, literally, an average evening up to a single point. There was a Family meeting I needed to attend, so I let Salem go to my room herself.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""That's the point-- the single point I wish I could undo that evening.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""That is the point where nothing else matters. This wasn't a gang killing, but it wasn't a random act of violence either. It was a crime directed at me, who ever the man was, he was waiting in my room, waiting for me.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Instead, however, he got Salem.""</span>

(She is quiet for several minutes)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I've been angry for a long time. I won't pretend that I'm not anymore, I am. Whoever it was, managed to get away with it for this long, and is still out there, and... this has only increased my rage. But it has also driven me. He forced my hand, for years I've chased him, I feel something more base than the void child of apathy and raw hatred towards him, but in a way he's molded me into the person I am today.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""It wasn't enough to steal one life.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""That's alright, though. I haven't let it consume me, I haven't completely moved on, yes, but I have continued living, and soon I will be able to move on.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I now know who he is.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Russel City, where we soon plan to make our presence know, harbors a an animal disguised as a man. Fitting, that he should be a captain of the Winged Guardian pigs.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">This may sound rather cliche, but I think I crave the release revenge may finally provide me. To him, at least, I will be his ultimate undoing.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I am become death.""</span>

(She yawns, then laughs)

<span class=""bb-i"">""I suppose that's enough for tonight, isn't it?""</span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

A graying old man, at least 65 years old, hung, naked and upside-down, from a warped streetlight in the Russel City slums. The rope was tied sturdily, if tightly, around his ankles, and aside from from some bruising and the blood rapidly rushing to his head, the man was unharmed. On the street in front of him laid the armor of a Winged Guardian captain. 

To his left, a man named Leo kept an eye out for the man's comrades. To his right, a woman named Lucania read off the man's offenses from a manila folder, copies of which had been sent to all of his superiors in Russel City. In front of the man, a crowd was gathering.

""30 years, Russel City!"" Lucania roared, she had a broken smile and her eyes were skewed, one was a bright happy yellow, another was a dark crimson. She spread her arms as if she was presenting some miracle tonic, ""30 year Captain Adam Worth of the Winged Guardians has operated, with impunity, and assaulted the women of Dust-- our women! Your daughters, sisters..."" Lucania's vision darkened as her irises became black, ""Our lovers.""

""Y-you're insane!"" Adam spat, ""They were--""

""Immortals?"" Lucania tilted her head as she cut in, ""Sickos? Mutie scum?"" She opened the folder again, ""Alice Thomas was 9 years old, Adam.""

""They'll string you up for this--""

""Who, Adam? The Guardians? Oh-- They'll come, I expect them to, I sent all of your higher ups copies of your exploits in advance-- they'll come. I do doubt that it'll be to save you, though. They'll probably just want to watch."" 

A sizable crowd had begun to gather, people began chanting for his death.

""Watch what?""

She leaned in close tot he man's reddening face, ""To watch you beg an Immortal girl to put you down like the animal you are.""

The crowd cheered. 

""Your citizens want it! You live to serve, don't you!?"" She slashed her razorblades at his eye, the man's screams were drowned out by those of the crowd. 

Her voice was loud, but eerily calm as she proceeded, ""You took her from me."" She slashed across his chest, ""150 girls."" she cut off an ear, ""150 <span class=""bb-i"">innocent</span> girls."" a slash to the jaw, ""And my Salem, on top of them all."" She slashed at his groin.

Adam's wails grew more pained with each cut, but Lucania continued, with the support the ever increasing crowd, until the man was little more than a loosely held pile of pulpy flesh and blood.

That didn't matter though. He was living. He could still feel pain-- he could still feel her rage. Lucania had become the man's death, but she didn't intend on giving it to him so soon. Her composure was breaking-- It had been broken, but as she slashed at the man she was on the verge of tears, she practically bathed in his blood and gave the crowd a show in the form of her shrieking curses in Italian as she flayed the rapist alive.

This continued for some time.

Lucania knelt to look the man in his one functioning eye, ""Adam, do you know what happens next?""

Of course he couldn't respond. Lucania knew that, she had already cut out his tongue. In response, he tried, unsuccessfully, to spit blood on her face. She didn't bat an eye.

She gasped like a mother hearing a child's first words, ""That's right, Adam!"" Lucania pulled a pair of shears out from her purse, her false smile died, ""I'm going to cut off your cock and balls-- then I'm going to cut you down, and let the crowd have it's way with you.""

As she moved to make the cut, Lucania thought, oddly, of Jesus Christ. He taught that one should turn the other check, that down the path of revenge only lied sadness. For Lucania, in that moment, that feeling of a weight bearing down on her finally being lifted. It felt better than good it felt like a... catharsis. The adrenaline continued to pump through her body as she felt an array of emotions associated with vengful closure.

In that moment, revenge solved everything.

Her voice cracked with the flow of the moment, she addressed the crowd, ""This!"" She raised the bloody phallus, ""Is what happens to those who wrong you! Who wrong us!"" Tears streamed down her checks, ""Not just the Winged Guardians, I will personally bring death to any <span class=""bb-i"">figlio di troia</span> who crosses the Castalia Family!""

Leo sighed, tossing his cigarette on the ground he placed a free hand on Lucania's shoulder, ""It's time to go, kiddo."" 

""<span class=""bb-i"">No!</span>"" Her voice boomed, she punched Adam's unconscious body, ""I want this brutto figlio di puttana bastardo to feel the salt of every tear he has caused in his wounds!""

Leo didn't give her a chance. Wordlessly, he hoisted the bloody heiress over his shoulder as she cried, beating fruitlessly at his back.

""<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Cazzo! Cazzo! Porco dio! Ti ammazzo! Che te pozzino ammazzÃÂ!! Dio cane! Sti cazzo porca miseria!!!</span></span>"" 

As the pair left, the crowd fell upon the horribly mutilated Adam Worth.

She doesn't say anything, her expression is downcast and her eyes are blue, and for several minutes, the church remains still.

A portly man dressed in a priestly robe enters the other side of the confessional. Despite his weight, his movements do not disturb those praying in the church, they are silent, practiced. Still, someone with a trained eye might notice the manilla folder he carries. As he sits, he can see the woman through a a golden screen, she smells vaguely of sunflowers. The pair don't speak, they're familiar with each other, familiar enough to gather all they need form a collective silence.

They're both Christians; but the woman is not there to confess her sins, and the man is not a priest. 

The man clears his throat. He slides the folder, under the screen, to the woman, who begins to read through the pages of reports. The man, like a ghost, leaves the woman alone in the booth, again. She reads through the incriminating documents. They serve as definitive evidence for crimes committed by one man, Adam Worth, over the course of 30 years. 

The combined results of eight years of investigations.

Tears fall on the pages of the manilla folder. The woman's eyes are amber.</div></div>

A few stray pills were scattered across the table, and the bottle was half empty. Slamming a glass down on the table, Bento shrugged off the harsh taste of the local rotgut. Retrieving a gold pocketwatch from his vest he checked the time; it was 1:38 in the afternoon. What an awful time, he mused, taking up his revolver, putting the bullet in the wheel and spinning it haphazardly. He flicked it home and cocked back the hammer before laying the barrel to rest against his head, pointed at his skull.

<font color=""#92278f"">“Since the beginning of time all things have moved according to the necessity dictated by their cause.”</font> He muttered to himself, reciting his understanding of the world in a way that almost resembled a prayer. <font color=""#92278f"">“My body and mind are affected by, and affect in turn, the flow of the cosmic whole. The substance from which my form is manifested, that whose essence is expressed in infinitely many ways, I call you God. This substance, God, by which all of existence is determined according to it’s nature, is supremely perfect.”</font> Adrenaline pumped faster and faster through his veins in anticipation… His mind was swimming from all the drugs and alcohol, and tears ran down his tormented face as he forced the words through painful sobs. <font color=""#92278f"">“To this nature I am beholden, to this God I surrender.”</font> Breathing heavily, the Immortal teetered on the edge of existence, testing fate, staring deep into the abyss. He finally understood what it meant to be alive as he counted down: 3, 2, 1… 

Everything went black, and for one, perfect moment there was nothing.

In the next, he was on the floor, screaming. Not the controlled screams of rage, but the terrified, erratic screaming of a man whose fate it was to endure his curse, and his gift. He threw himself up from the floor, gun still in hand and spun back to the table. He screamed again, pulled the hammer back once more and fired, sending a bullet smashing through the bottle as it shattered into pieces.

He dropped the gun on the floor and breathed in deeply, over and over, slowly regaining his composure. He calmly returned to the table, picked up his glass and threw it as hard as he could against the wall.

He noticed that his hands had been shaking the whole time. He sank back into his chair and held his head in his hands for a long time. Tears ran down his face once more, this time silent and needless; what good did these tears achieve? He had touched the void, and it had been beautiful, but now he was back. Now he had to keep moving.

Exhaling sharply, Bento shook his head as he stood and crossed the room to grab his belt, then strap it around his waist. Returning to the table, he scooped his gun off the floor before he loaded and holstered the weapon. He needed a new purpose, one that was real. The task of finding one in such a meaningless world, in such a meaningless city was daunting, but at least it had been a while since he had sprung for good whiskey… That would do for now.

<div class=""bb-center"">---</div>

Bento sat alone at a table in the corner just listening to the band as the bartender poured another couple of fingers into his glass. Bento pulled out his watch to check the time; it was 3:20. <font color=""#92278f"">“Just leave the bottle.”</font> The Windcaller grunted, as he tossed a handful of dirty 9mm rounds on the table. A couple of minutes later a dirty looking man approached the table, his own empty glass in hand, presumably jonesing for some whiskey. <font color=""#92278f"">“I’m not in the mood.”</font> Bento spat.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">“Aww, come on, man! I’ve got an ear to the ground ‘round here… I’ve got good info, man…”</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“Fucking try me…”</font> The Immortal responded, tossing the contents of his glass down his throat.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">“Well don’t you tell nobody I told you this…”</font> The man whispered, taking a seat as he did. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“But surely you’ve heard about all the crack downs on Immortals lately? Get this… Rumor has it they’re all gathering around Regal Rock out to the east and-“</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“You think I haven’t heard this bullshit before?”</font> Bento interrupted, pulling his gun and placing it on the table with a thud. <font color=""#92278f"">“Try again…”</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">“Jesus Christ, man! Okay! I heard there’s been a bunch of murders up in Gaen territory. Got everyone scrablin’ around, ain’t nobody know what to do with themselves. Huh?”</font>

The Major poured himself another glass and tipped the bottle over to offer a splash in the old man’s glass <font color=""#92278f"">“Here’s what that’s worth… Now give me something other than cheap gossip or we’re done.”</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">“Aight, listen up then… Rumor has it the Castalia Family is making a grab for Russell City.”</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">“What did I say about rumors?”</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">“No, no… I saw it with my own eyes, they’re shipping the drugs in from Serenity, hiring muscle and girls for this new club they’re opening up. I hear they even got the Wings busting up the little guys… They fuckin’ hit my gas guy this mornin’ and that’s why I need this booze, man. Come on, I’m beggin’ you…”</font> The man started pleading. Bento tipped the bottle and poured the man two fingers worth before carefully transferring the contents of the bottle into an empty flask in one of his vest pockets. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Dear God, thank you…”</font> The stranger said, greedily sucking down the whiskey.

Bento returned the flask to his pocket and examined the remainder of the bottle. There was still enough to get some more out of the guy if he played his cards right. He was still pretty messed up from earlier though, and while the drinking had calmed his nerves, it wasn’t doing him any favors in terms of mental clarity. There was no doubt the city’s rougher elements would be focused on the arrival of the Castalia’s, at least until things settled down and all the blood had dried. The real question was whose blood would be spilled, and whose hands it would be on, and whose side would he take? When it came down to it, the lives of a killer and a gambler were not too different. You never play a hand you can’t win, but when you’ve got an easy mark, or bullets in your pocket, you take ‘em for all they’re worth… <font color=""#92278f"">“The rest of the bottle for everything you know about the Castalia Family operation.”</font>

For the first time in weeks, a sly smile spread across the Windcaller’s lips. In the background the band started playing a familiar <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVfX1qiZWEs"">song</a>.

<div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-i"">I wanna be a bad guy in a silent film,
Lit up by candles in the space between the shadows
I wouldn’t have to say nothing, or sound mean
I just wouldn’t smile, or look too pleased

They can’t all be good
My guess, better that they shouldn’t
What if sorrows swim?
Good God, gonna need to burn them</span></font>

129,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-18 07:40:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Not much happened for the next few hours after she was so rudely interrupted by the bandits, except for one moment where she drove past what looked to be the burnt out remnants of a car. Had she been a scavenger, there was no doubt that she'd have jumped at the chance to take whatever was there, but such was not her trade. T'was as true as anything that scavenging was as normal as being a merchant in Dust, but even then she was not comfortable taking something from someone's corpse. It felt wrong, almost as if the glazed-over eyes of the deceased were judging you without ever looking at you. She didn't know whether to chalk it up to the judgement she saw in the eyes of those who realised that she could not help them, and blamed her for their dying. It didn't make sense, of course, but judgement was a sore spot for her, regardless of why she was being judged. 

Her lips pursed in thought. She really did need to get past her teen years. That kind of judgement was long past, and the reason for it had become something that most people were envious of, one way or the other. That got a small smile out of her. To think that something which had caused her early teens to be a nightmare was now something that most people she knew could only wish for? She chuckled, the sound lost in the wind rushing past her face as she drove onwards. Irony at its finest, is what it was. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Speaking of my teens, I wonder how mom &amp; dad are? I haven't been able to visit in the last year. Damn security was tightened so I couldn't sneak in.</span> She held the steer of her motorbike with only one hand as she patted a pocket on her old jeans. <span class=""bb-i"">At least I can still send them letters. Only a matter of time until—Ah!</span> Dirty roofs rose in the distance, seeming to rise up from the ground like a sprout, taking its first forage into the sun and air above ground. It wasn't a pretty sprout, however, given the copious amounts of dust covering everything from cellar to loft, not to mention the ceiling and every wall in the entire city. 

Russell Town was far from pretty, but nothing in this world could truly be called pretty, even most men and women were calloused and lined with age all to early. That was in the best of cases, the worst were those who ended up with scars all over from fights in the slums or confrontations with the Wings—the Winged Guardians, that is. Still, it was a city, and one of the largest in the entirety of Dust, and as such one might consider it just a tad bit more beautiful than the rest. 

<span class=""bb-i"">I would still have loved to see Venedi or Okinawa before the Fall,</span> Evelina thought as she stopped her bike and hopped off of it a good kilometre away from the city. She was far enough away that whatever guards patrolled the outer perimeters of the city wouldn't notice her, which was just what she wanted. She pulled the bike into a small forest of cacti—consisting of all of eight of the stab-happy plants, and let it lean against one of them. She then pulled a camouflage net out from one of her bike's bags and threw it over the machine. She nodded, satisfied that it was as giid as invisible from a distance. Grabbing her bag with the guns and ammo she had taken from the bandits earlier, as well as some of her own bartering items and whatever water and food she had left, and the letter, she left the cluster of cacti behind, heading for good old Russell Town.

-----

Evelina rushed around the corner and pressed herself against the wall, immediately calling upon the light around her, forcing it to bend around her. The Wing came rushing past her, stopping only a metre or two away from her, looking around suspiciously, even staring right at her one moment. 

She was almost too afraid to breathe as the Wing grumbled something about damn smugglers and ""kids being too fast these days."" 

Her entry into the city hadn't expected gone quite as expected. It had been her hope that she could have just walked in without a fuss, perhaps having to bluff her way past if things went south. This, however, she hadn't expected. The Wing had wanted to check her back, to which she had obliged. That was her first mistake. 

He saw the handful of guns and about twice the number of magazines filled primarily with dirty rounds, but a total of perhaps three or four high grade rounds in all of them together, and he had immediately assumed that she was a weapon smuggler. Her second mistake was saying that no, she wasn't. She had taken them from three other guys whom she had apprehended earlier that day, at which point he accused her of being a thief and robber; even a bandit, she thought she'd heard. That was when she tried to actually bluff her way past him, saying that she was working for his Commanding Officer, and was here to do see if there were any of the Winged Guardians slacking off. 

And that was when he'd started trying to apprehend her for lying, smuggling, theft, and burglary, as well as banditry. Coincidentally, that's also when she started running. 

That was a good fifteen minutes ago now, and she had only just managed to shake him off. He hadn't asked her to take off her goggles, so he didn't know of her being an Immortal—something for which she was extremely grateful—nor did he seem very interested in Immortals in general. Most would question why she insisted on keeping her goggles on, but he was more interested in the guns. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Greedy old coot. Bet he wanted them for himself.</span> 

She waited there, pressed up against the wall, for several minutes after the Wing had left before she felt it was safe to move again. She let out a breath in tandem with letting the light around her resume its usual behaviour, rendering her visible again. A breezy laugh escaped past her lips; elated. 

""That was a bit clo—"" A sound from somewhere not so far away made her stop. It wasn't the normal hustle and bustle of the slums. It sounded like a large group of people, and someone shouting at said group of people; she could't quite hear what was being shouted—Not two seconds passed before her curiosity got the better of er, and she was headed for the spectacle. She wasn't prepared for what she saw. 

She arrived just in time to hear a young and—admittedly—beautiful woman shouting at the crowd, condemning a man hanging upside down without a shred of clothing, for rapes and murders. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""You're insane! They were—""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Immortals? Sickos? Mutie Scum? Alice Thomas was nine years old, Adam.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">WHAT?!</span> It was all Evelina could do not to immediately deliver a crushing blow to this Adam's face. Her fists clenched almost involuntarily, as did she tighten her jaw until it hurt. She couldn't let herself be known right now. In the middle of so many people it was far too dangerous to reveal herself as being an Immortal. <span class=""bb-i"">Speaking of..</span> She studied the young woman currently cutting deep lacerations in Adam's body—she ignored the screams—trying to get a good look at her face. <span class=""bb-i"">There!</span> A flicker of red and yellow caught her attention. There was no mistaking it, this woman was an Immortal just like herself. 

She paid little attention to this Adam getting cut up, instead scrutinizing this... whoever she was. It was clear to Evelina that this wasn't just meting out justice for a decrepit man, but something far more personal. The vengeful look, the muttered curses in-between loud exclamations. 

The show was soon over, with Adam still hanging there with blood flowing from his body in several rivulets. It was far from a pretty sight, but if he would rape and murder small girls and young women, only because they were Immortal... He deserved none of her care. To hell with her oath. This was one time where she would refuse any aid. 

There was, however, one person she thought could use a bit of help. Or perhaps it was her own curiosity making her believe that. The Immortal Woman had left Adam hanging and headed somewhere else. Evelina followed a good ways behind, having entered the shadows of the buildings and bent the light around her again. Thanks to the heavy shadows she could move, albeit slowly, while invisible. Her destination ended up being an old bar—or club—called the Bitches' Brew. It was... seedy, is what she'd call it. Plenty of people who looked clueless about one thing or another, and more than a few sitting on barstools and around tables, sipping at their brightly coloured drinks. Her target was sitting on one such barstool, a glass with some indiscernible liquid in front of her. She looked none the worse for wear, but Evelina had a sneaking suspicion that such was not the case. 

Her invisibility dropping—no one seemed to notice one more person suddenly appearing from the general vicinity of the door—she made her way over to a adjacent stool, sitting down on it with a 'pomf'. She might've grunted something about her posterior being too big had it not been for the serious and sombre feeling in her gut. 

A small handful of dirt rounds, and a few words later, and Evelina sat with her own glass of brightly coloured... something. It didn't smell all that good, so she hoped it was just like medicine: Smells foul, tastes better. Taking a sip she discovered that it was exactly like medicine. Right down to the lie of it tasting better than it smells. She forced it down, however, not wanting to spew it all over the table. 

She set the glass down and turned her head slightly, allowing her to glance at the younger—she assumed—woman through the filtered lenses of her goggles. ""You okay?"" She asked. A simple question, nothing intrusive, but so very, very loaded with more questions.</div>"
130,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-19 00:17:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Cazzo!</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Cazzo!!!</span> Put me down you fucking pig!"" Lucania's hair was plastered to her skin in equal parts by her own honeyed tears as well as the blood of Adam Worth. Her dress sagged with the weight of his drying gore and her body was limp with fatigue. 

For a while after Leo had extracted her against her will, she had been struggling with all the resistance her body could put up. It was never quite enough to escape, though, she had wanted nothing more than to break his grip on her and run back to Adam, she <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> him to feel more pain. She had waited years for this moment, to have it robbed from her was an absolute injustice. 

Still, the simple fact of the matter was that she had tired herself out with that public display, her arms were like the peach-apricot jelly she had been spreading over toast not 12 hours prior to this moment, she couldn't beat at her uncle's back. The simple fact of the matter was that Leoluca was much stronger than she was-- and in that moment, he was the only one who could protect Lucania from herself. He knew that, and as Lucania's composure returned to her, she realized it, too.

The woman's sweat mixed with Adams blood as she lay draped across Leo's shoulder, she was physically and emotionally spent, her eyes, obscured by the hair that hung over them, were a pained blue, and bloodshot. The copper melded into Lucania's flowery scent and blended well into the sick smell of Russel City slums. With each crunching step, Leo took the two further into the darkened alleys that defined this area of the city. 

They were far away from the man by now. Lucania could spot no familiar landmarks whenever she summoned the energy to lift her head and gaze about the oppressive hovel. Just sad looking men and women milling about their squalid ratholes, most of them paying the odd pair no mind. As the drying gestalt liquids continued to soak into the ragged clothes Leo wore, he made another turn. 

Lucania recognized this street, her eyes darted about, eager to absorb any details she could recognize. She became calm enough to have something click in her mind-- he wasn't taking her to the Bitches Brew-- he was just walking in circles. Lucania became more limp, still, her panting before, loud enough to be heard sever feet away, became mousy. Soon, the only sounds were those of the tired thuds Leo made with each step and the interactions of neighbors, friends, and businesses in the surrounding ghetto.

<span class=""bb-i"">Dio... He's doing the thing he did to calm me down when I was five...</span>

Lucania's eyes narrowed. Her body wasn't dry, but her tears were-- She couldn't break free through strength, but that didn't matter. She had her voice, her voice was strong. Her body began to shake.

With his free hand, Leo took a drag of a bent cigarette, he released the puff of smoke into the soiled air with a sigh, ""So..."" 

Lucania inhaled deeply, the air filled her lungs and felt as though it washed through her soul. Her voice was still strong, she could get out of this.

Leo knew her better than that.

Responding with the practiced speed of a profession, Leo threw the woman on her back without hesitation. He followed almost instantly, kneeling over her, his hand covering her mouth-- his bent cigarette hadn't left his own. Throwing the blunt on the ground, he blew the smoke in her face before continuing, ""...You ready to start acting like a fucking adult?""

Lucania's eyes were wide, she needed a few seconds to register what just happened, the speed of it all made the pain linger with the surprise. The air had been knocked from her lungs and she couldn't respond with anything more than a muffled <span class=""bb-i"">'Mpfff!!'</span> Using her Scream was out of the question. All she could do was... think.

Perhaps she had been trying hardest to avoid that.

Leoluca's expression was stone. For the first time since her arrival in Russel, she had been forced to look at him, eye to eye, and not simply <span class=""bb-i"">through</span> him, as she was used to doing with most people. He was unkempt and tired, she had seen that, but she hadn't observed it this closely. He wasn't just scruffy, he was outright bedraggled. His hair looked like that of a man who drifted from fight to fight, his beard looked like it had chunks ripped out. The most powerful thing she saw were his eyes, though. They were the classic Castalia brown, but they were sunken, dragged down by dark bags, and seemed to convey an inherent sadness.

He was supposed to be the carefree younger brother, the on who he had chosen to cast aside his claim to leadership in the Family in favor of his mutant nephew. He was like another father to her, and she had cast him here, to muck through her dirty work for her, and he did it, without complaint. The city was wearing him down, but he persevered-- she had done that to him, ripped him away from his life and forced him to act as nothing more than a pawn of Familial conquest and her own revenge.

The worst part was, in his glassy eyes, she could see her own reflection. She hadn't even been in Russel City a day, and already she was worse for wear than Leo. The plastered hair, the bloodshot eyes, she hadn't even been here 2 hours, and already the entropic nature of Russel City had broken her down.

<span class=""bb-i"">You were arrogant.</span>

She had been. She had made the false assumption that she was above her emotions, that she could operate as an unfeeling arbiter of death and personal revenge. Part of her felt satisfied by it all, part of her replayed the flaying over and over again, another part was...

<span class=""bb-i"">There are no parts of you. There is only you.</span>

Leo tentatively removed his hand from her mouth. He gaze was less harsh, his weary eyes were filled with concern, he was well aware what the blue in her eyes meant. He cleared his throat before speaking. ""...What happened back there? You alright?""

Lucania moved to sit up against the side of some building, the deformed child of a tin shack and a skyscraper. Leo continued to kneel at her side, and again, after a moment their eyes met. Leo's enervated eyes meeting with Lucania's. As they filled with tears, she threw herself around him, crying hard as she buried her face in his shoulder.

At first, Leo's eyes became wide in a surprise of his own, before soon after softening along with his expression, ""Shhh. Shhhh. Shhh."" He cooed, ""It's alright baby girl, everything's alright..."" They were making a scene, but that didn't matter. In a city built on death and lies, it was refreshing for a scene as sweet as what appeared to be a father embracing a traumatized daughter. For a time the pair sat there, Lucania crying, Leo calming her as he stroked her hair. The rose had begun to wilt.

""Come on kiddo. Let's get you cleaned up, huh?""

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

Lucania sat at the smokey bar of the Bitches Brew. The room was golden-- in more ways than one, filled with low level Castalia boys and the windswept patrons of the slums. No doubt intrigued in anything with the Castalia name stamped on it after her show an hour prior. They shelled out their hard-earned (or perhaps stolen) bullets, all gleaming a dull gold as they left the shaky hands of customers. They were rewarded with a a dull golden liquid in return, Castalia Bootlegged Moonshine™-- even at half price they paid too much for the false nectar.

They didn't care. They knew why they were here. It didn't matter if it was gold or fool's gold, a drink always helped you forget.

The dimmly lit room itself glowed with a false gold. The floors were a zigzagging pattern of black and gold, golden velvet curtains lined the wall. Lucania had always found the design a tad unnerving, the only thing that didn't have the false gold of crushed hopes was the brown of the bar and the scattered scavenged tables.

And, she supposed, the customers themselves. Lucania herself was about as far away from feeling golden as possible. Was it possible to reach that point?

She took a sip of her beverage.

Leo was gone-- he was either with his wife, a group of call girls, or getting drunk. Knowing the nature with which the man usually approached life, he was probably trying all three at once. Diane and Lucy were off getting high somewhere. Carmela was... somewhere? Probably looking for anyone who might try anything tonight. Lucania would need to remember to remind herself to pay Carmela extra for that. She looked around the club. Everyone seemed to be talking to someone else. Lucania felt the isolation weigh down on her body.

She took another sip. Feeling the burn as it made it's way down her throat.

Somewhere, on an unseen stage, an <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz4uDncAqu4"">esoteric jazz</a> filled the air, air already saturated with smoke and muffled conversations, but the melodies maintained their dominance. Lucania could see her reflection in her glass. Leo hadn't lied, she cleaned up nicely, even after her breakdown. They had talked on the way to the club. Not about anything in particular, just whatever came up-- part distraction, and part acceptance.

In her other hand, she held a black rotted rose, she plopped the dead flower in her drink and took another small sip.

She had gone with another black evening gown to wear-- sleeveless. Her hair was in order, where the rose had left her hair, there were now three lavender chrysanthemums. Her face was clean of the stained make-up and blood of earlier-- her eyes, no longer bloodshot, were brown. A contemplative brown-- pretty, but not quite Castalia brown. In the right light, a fool could mistake Castalia brown for gold. 

She raised her glass to her lips, contemplating if she should take another sip or not. She hesitated-- and, for the moment, she instead listened to the gentle jazz alone at the bar.

She was only alone for another moment, however. Soon, a stool next to her found itself occupied by a woman. Lucania stole sidelong glances as the woman ordered a drink for herself, and forced more of the liquid down in one gulp than she herself had sipped all evening. The woman was bespectacled-- with goggles that concealed her eyes-- the real oddity, though was her hair. It was like a red satin sheet-- but with curls. She was pretty, undoubtedly, but she was also marked by the deserts of the world, her clothing gave that away, as well as an enviable figure. Whomever she was, she wasn't from here.

<span class=""bb-i"">Interesting.</span>

That would also explain her tenacity. It's possible the red haired woman had never heard of her Family before, or at the very least, Lucania. Then again, she could also be an undercover MD assassin.

The woman set down her glass, and surprised Lucania. Aside from Leo, no one had asked-- but here was a complete stranger, displaying a level of concern most of her family had forgone. The woman's voice was laced with empathy as she asked, ""You okay?""

Lucania still had the glass raised to her lips, and after processing the question, she almost laughed. The smile on her face was genuine, her eyes shifted from brown to a goldenrod color. Following the woman's lead, she set down her glass, before turning to address the question, ""Okay..."" She mused, tilting her head, ""I... actually don't know."" 

Letting the jazz fill the silence in between her words, Lucania took another sip of her drink.

""I assume this is in reference to my flaying that <span class=""bb-i"">porca miseria</span>, am I correct?"" She didn't wait for an answer, ""Are you here to congratulate me or kill me?"" She raised the glass to her lips, smirking again, ""Perhaps both?""</div>"
131,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-20 01:29:00,Callthecops,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A tall figure stood expressionless at the edge of the third story rooftop staring down at the ground, watching like a sentinel at the scene unfolding below. A soft wind tossed back his dark grey hair, his eyes shielded behind dark sunglasses. Powerful forearms, exposed by rolled up sleeves, lay folded across his chest. Below him, the infamous Lucania Bloody Sleeves Castalia tore away at Captain Worth of the Winged Guardians, a man of almost equal infamy down in the slums. Accompanying her was a man who could only be Leoluca Castalia, head of the family’s operations in Russell City, and second son of Don Castalia himself. Surely they had made quite a scene for themselves down there.

Bento lifted a hand to withdraw the rolled cigarette from his lips and let it fall to his side as he exhaled a thick cloud of smoke. If he found the scene distasteful his face didn’t show it, having long been jaded towards the sounds of suffering. The problem with these Mafia types was that they always felt the need to make a spectacle out of things… It didn’t really matter, they would give him a better life than wasting away in the slums, whether by participating in their rise, or by profiting from their fall…

From his vest pocket, Bento retrieved his flask and took a long pull before replacing it in his pocket. This woman certainly lived up to her reputation, slashing away at the broken man, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""This!”</font> She cried, <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Is what happens to those who wrong you! Who wrong us!""</font> Even from a distance, Bento could see tears streaming down her face as she raised the mutilated cock of a helpless man, a gesture testifying more to the depth of her grief than the breadth of her power. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Not just the Winged Guardians, I will personally bring death to any figlio di troia who crosses the Castalia Family!”</font>
<font color=""#662d91"">“Hmmpf”</font> Bento grunted, entirely unimpressed. Intimidation was one of the lowest forms of power, yet those who wielded it always seemed so sure of themselves. They were all the same, not one week ago he had returned to his apartment to find a group of five men posted up outside, claiming that they owned the street. Bento showed them the consequences of trying to use the power of intimidation against a man without fear. Even though their leader had been busy giving some lame speech, Bento could only hope that in the split second between noticing the gun that had just been pulled in his face, and the bullet entering his skull, the poor bastard saw the truth. That in a single moment, every ounce of power he had gained beating up old ladies in the street had been reduced to ash. What use was it then? Something that could be taken so easily was hardly even worth having.

As her uncle dragged Lucania away from the scene thrown over his shoulder like a child, it was clear what kind of power she held. Bento raised the cigarette to his lips once more; there was no need to hurry after all. He knew exactly where they would be going, he might as well finish his smoke. The Immortal stood and watched as the crowd tore the old man down and ripped him to pieces. It was almost humorous to imagine, the foolish captain had been swayed by the same illusion that had now passed to the Castalia girl. He had tormented the slums with impunity, secure in the notion that his power would protect him from harm. But could it stop someone stronger than him from stringing him up from a lamppost? 

<font color=""#662d91"">“Glass houses…”</font> He mumbled to himself, pulling out the flask again. He was not with without weakness after all, Bento mused, pouring more whiskey down his throat than he really should have. Recalling the events of the afternoon should have made it clear that there was nothing strong about him. Whether he knew it or not, the truth was that he had come to this place to die. The bastards had broken him long ago and since then Bento had turned down every chance at happiness he’d been given. His father in Aspin, Sarah in Gate’s Pass, and dear Promos…

The waterworks had concluded and the loot had all been sold to Motum Diversum traders, all that was left was the future. <font color=""#0072bc"">“So where are you going to go now?”</font> The older man asked, the concern evident in his worn face. 

Silence hung in the air for a short while as Bento paused to think. <font color=""#662d91"">“I have a childhood friend living up in Dresden…”</font> He lied, <font color=""#662d91"">“It shouldn’t be too hard to get a job up there.”</font> Stepping forward, the Immortal turned away so his friend couldn’t see the guilt in his eyes. It didn’t stop Promos from seeing straight through Bento’s fiction, though the old man was too well-natured to mention it.

<font color=""#0072bc"">“You know, you could always stay here with us…”</font>
<font color=""#662d91"">“I wish that I could, but-“</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">“Then do. Forget about the past, my friend.”</font>
<font color=""#662d91"">“It doesn’t work like that…”</font> Bento snapped, turning back to the old man, and waving his hands in frustration. It wasn’t fair for the old fool to be so kind. Bento shook his head and regained his composure, <font color=""#662d91"">“You don’t understand.”</font> He added, the warmth returning to his voice, not without bringing in a touch of sadness. <font color=""#662d91"">“You lost your family, and now here you are, back in the arms of your wife and son. You can just go back… But I can’t do it anymore. I can’t explain what it is, but I lost something in those damn mines, and I just can’t go back anymore… Not after all of the things I’ve done.”</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">“Then promise me this.”</font> Promos finally said, after a short pause. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Once you find whatever it is you’ve lost, promise me you will come home.”</font>
<font color=""#662d91"">“Thank you old friend.”</font> Bento replied, resting a hand on the man’s shoulder. 

<font color=""#0072bc"">“Be sure to visit often.”</font> Promos said, forcing a sad smile, knowing he’d likely never see his friend again.</div></div></div>
<div class=""bb-center"">---</div>

Bento flicked his cigarette off the roof and traced its fall to the dirt below. There was no point in dwelling on the past any longer. He took one last look at the mangled corpse of Captain Adam Worth as light winds started to pick up around his feet. Finally, the Immortal did a quick once over to make sure all of his belongings were securely attached to his person before leaping off the roof. Instead of falling hard to the earth, he was propelled through the air by a powerful burst of wind, landing easily on the opposite roof. It was time to find the Bitches Brew…</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><font color=""cyan"">Jonathan “Kyrios” Diederich</font></div>

A thin veil of smoke hung softly in the air, lazily drifting in a slow orbit around the room. It was dark, but just past the early afternoon, at the awkward stage of time just before traditional evening. Two silhouettes sat on either end of a heavy wooden table, crafted from some dark wood and polished so heavily that the flat beams of light streaming in through the thick, flat blinds caused the surface of the table to glow gently. The entire space had a moody, amber hue about it. The muddled mixture of sweat, cologne, smoke, and furniture polish permeated the air. One man stood, his darkened form outlined only by the mellow lightning. The other played a faint melody of fingers rapped upon a table was the only sound, that and the muted exhale of bitter smoke exiting the lungs.

Jonathan turned from the window, exhaling a cloud of smoke that caught upon the subtle current of air propelled by a ceiling mounted fan, spinning quite leisurely. The man sitting across from him looked at ease, his girth filling the small wooden chair and seeming to spill out the sides. His shirt was a sweat stained, white button upon, that seemed to be straining against his bulk. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his brow, releasing his own cloud of smoke. He cleared his throat, his double chin quivering as he did so.

<font color=""tomato"">”Two months Jonathan.”</font> He spoke ominously, taking a manila folder from underneath the damp underside of his arm. He flipped it open to a growing report on Jonathan's <span class=""bb-i"">favorite</span> Immortal. A picture of a woman with frosty white eyes, and pale white hair was clipped to the front page. Beneath a few basic details were listed.

<font color=""cyan"">”Where would you like to start Matthus?”</font> Jonathan paused a moment,<font color=""cyan"">”Drink?”</font> He asked coolly, sitting in the padded chair on his side of the table. He looked Matthus in the eye, quirking one eyebrow as he pulled out an unlabeled bottle of alcohol, pouring some in each of the two empty glasses that had been to one side of the table.


<font color=""tomato"">”Er, no. Listen Jon, She is a Menace, Jon, one you've been unable to stop. She scares people, she's brash and unpredictable. She's a danger, Jon,”</font> Matthus said, accepting the small glass from Jonathan's extended hand, filled with some dark, amber liquid. He took a generous sip, the liquid burning strongly as he drank. It was all he could do to maintain his composure and not splutter in the awful taste of it. He had never been one for degenerate's brew, more of a fine wine man himself. He knew this was a tactic to make somebody feel ill at ease, serving the drink even when Matthus had denied it shifted the aura of dominance in the room into Jonathan's favor.

<font color=""cyan"">”I am aware. Send me competent soldiers, and I'll bring you a dead Immortal,”</font> Jonathan replied sharply, his distaste for the current state of affairs evident in his speech. He emptied the glass in one fell swoop, setting it upon the surface of the table. <font color=""cyan"">”Would you prefer wine instead?”</font> He asked, clearly acknowledging the distaste on Matthus' face, who nodded in return.

<font color=""cyan"">”Ah, Shit. I'm all out.”</font> Jonathan noted, holding up the empty wine bottle.

Matthus wiped his brow once more. Another tactic, denying something he actually wanted. <span class=""bb-i"">'Jerk'</span> he thought bitterly. <font color=""tomato"">”Yes, yes. We all know how you feel about the <span class=""bb-i"">corruption</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">bad politics</span> Jon, but this is a serious matter.”</font>

Jonathan pressed the cigarette to his mouth, inhaling strongly and watching the ember glow to life. <font color=""cyan"">”You remember Captain Worth?”</font> Jonathan asked, watching the tendrils of smoke curl and twist about themselves, fading into a translucent cloud.

<font color=""tomato"">”Staff Sergeant Adam Worth, yes I know the man. An esteemed member of the institution if I recall, received an award for excellence some time ago.”</font> Matthus answered, pointedly ignoring the glass of foul liquor before him.

<font color=""cyan"">”Found him strung from a pole not too long ago, upside down and naked. It was quite the public spectacle, can you guess how many Wings were actually present and didn't intervene? Can you fathom the amounts of bets they were placing? He was a distasteful man, I agree. But this kind of behavior is unacceptable Matthus!”</font> Jonathan expressed fervently, pouring himself another glass of spirits.

Matthus' eyes widened, <font color=""tomato"">”Good Lord, No! Are you sure it was Adam?”</font>
<font color=""cyan"">”Apparently he was fond of raping and killing women, not just the ones of age either mind you. There was something about a nine year old girl.”</font> Jonathan added, relaxing slightly as he drank, warmth spreading through his body.

<font color=""tomato"">”And you believe the accusations of some murderer?”</font> Matthus scoffed, forcing another mouthful of that distasteful brew down his throat.

<font color=""cyan"">”It was quite emotional, I don't recall murderer's crying as they lopped a man's genitals off,”</font> Jon described, <font color=""cyan"">”There had been an investigation going on for years Matthus, buried under legal paperwork, hidden from the department heads. Somehow she got a hold on these documents. Fuck Matthus! I had one personally mailed to my office!”</font>
<font color=""tomato"">”She?”</font> Matthus queried.

Jonathan stubbed the smoldering butt of his cigarette out, pressing it firmly into the black bowl that served as an ash tray. <font color=""cyan"">”Ole' Bloody Sleeves herself,”</font> he muttered, shaking his head softly as he lit another cigarette. Today was a chain smoking kind of day.

<font color=""tomato"">”Y-you're Fucking kidding, right? Sottocapo's Kid?”</font> The portly man stuttered, disbelief contorting his face. He looked in pain, obviously agonized by the news.

<font color=""cyan"">”Couldn't displace their foothold in Serenity, hell everyone down there is fucking paid off anyways, they might as well be gangsters themselves. Now it seems the old man wants Russel too!”</font> Jonathan started, <font color=""cyan"">”And who is going to stop him? Are you gonna fucking do it? Hell, if our own whore fucking soldiers can't stop a single girl how the hell do you think we're going to handle the Castalia Family?”</font>
<font color=""tomato"">”Jesus Christ... you're right,”</font> Matthus conceded, falling into a quiet astonishment. <font color=""tomato"">”Good God Jonathan, it's going to be an all out war isn't it?”</font> He asked, the prospect of such a thing was terrified to a man such as he, quite comfortable in his ways.

<font color=""cyan"">”Let me make something very clear to you Matthus. They public torture, the mail; They're here to stir up trouble. I've got men looking for where they're trying to setup, but hell they're probably paid off already. I wouldn't doubt it,”</font> Jon stated, the anger rising in his voice at the last piece of his sentence.

<font color=""tomato"">”What if they are?”</font> Matthus interjected.

<font color=""cyan"">”It's probably too late to stop them anyways. I give it less than twenty-four hours before their product starts moving. That's going to rile our small time drug dealers, our illicit distillers, and any other small fish criminal out there. They're going to get upset, unless they're cut into the profit, meaning they're going to make waves.”</font>
<font color=""tomato"">”So we're worrying about small time drug dealers causing trouble? It's not li-”</font> Matthus began.

Jonathan interrupted him by slamming his palms down on the table hard enough to the two glasses to jump, the one closest to Matthus tipping and spilling. <font color=""cyan"">”No you fat fuck! It means war. Think about it for God's sake!”</font> Jonathan roared, his anger fueled by Matthus' ignorance. 

<font color=""tomato"">”War?”</font> Matthus questioned timidly.

<font color=""cyan"">”They've made a display of clipping one of our Wings. They've announced their arrival, <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> has made it very evident that they are moving in, and planning to stay. She's also an Immortal.”</font>
<font color=""tomato"">”Shit... Jon..”</font> Matthus said softly, breaking off as Jonathan stood abruptly.

<font color=""cyan"">”They're going to take over the illicit trades. Not everyone is going to be happy about that, and not everyone trusts the Guardians anymore. We're going to have vigilantes fighting in the streets of the slums. This is going to rile up the Immortals, if she's killing us then she's going to appear as an ally to at least some of them. I have no doubt they'll be used against us, unless she plans to kill them too, but why waste a good weapon?”</font> Jonathan's spoke quickly, his concern expression furrowing his brow.

<font color=""tomato"">”So wh-”</font> Matthus began to ask, before Jon cut him off again by slamming his hand on the table.

<font color=""cyan"">”I'm not finished! If the Guardian's are being paid off, hell, hired even, then we're going to lose control of the city. I'm talking total fucking anarchy Matthus, with a plethora of fucked up individuals in the middle of it inciting war. Feral hounds are going to be running rampant through the streets with all the bodies lying around, and trust me, they are vicious little bastards that roam in very, large packs.”</font>

Matthus paused for a moment, his trembling hand grasping the neck of the liqour bottle unsteadily. He took a large gulp of the drink, setting it down for a moment before taking another. His hand was still shaking as he set the bottle down, looking into Jonathan's icy stare.

<font color=""tomato"">”J-Jon what do you... I m-mean where's this.. Fuck! Alright! Jon, I'll get you your fucking interview! But so help me if you're wrong!”</font> Matthus wheezed exasperatedly. Matthus gathered himself, emotionally, doing his best to form an expressionless exterior. No doubt a number of people had heard them as they passed by the small office.

<font color=""cyan"">”I'm not Matthus, you know I'm not.”</font> Jon replied sincerely.

<font color=""tomato"">”That's the most terrifying part, Jon. Listen, I'll get you your meeting with Abicus, the recent reports are probably going to help your case.”</font>

Now Jon's interest was piqued, <font color=""cyan"">”What reports?”</font>

Matthus paused inside the small doorway, his mass pressing against each side of the smooth metal frame, <font color=""tomato"">”The flu is going around,”</font> Matthus answered solemnly.

<font color=""cyan"">”For fuck's sake!”</font> Jon exclaimed. All hell was about to break loose.

<font color=""tomato"">”Also, that's classified.”</font> Matthus added, before letting the door swing closed behind him as he ambled down the bright hallway. Jonathan resumed his place sitting in the mildly comfortable chair, rebuilding his composure. If Matthus was true to his word than he should finally get that meeting he had been pushing for months. If anyone could organize a meeting with the ever busy General First Class, then it was Matthus.

He looked at his pack of cigarettes, only one remained. He smiled ruefully to himself. It would appear as if he had a quick errand to run, he probably had some time yet before the presumed meeting. He slipped on his jacket, clasping his pistol holster to his body. He felt like jogging today.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Two Hours Later</div></div>

Jonathan's boot crunched loudly as he walked briskly across the rough dirt path. Behind him a building, barely held together by scraps of iron and rotting timber, emitted a sweet, fragrant odor. He had just enjoyed a fine meal of sweet carrots, hearty boiled potatoes, and a thick animal roast. He patted his stomach appreciatively, that was some well seasoned roadkill. The establishment had long been one of his favorites, “Gummy's Grub”. Aptly named, as the owner, Gummy, had only a single took jutting out from the upper portion of his mouth, making him quite comical when he gave his signature “Wide, Toothy grin.” Though dark of skin with rather pinched and unpleasant facial features, he was kind of heart and quite to make you laugh.

The scent changed as Jonathan rounded the rickety wooden fence, bordering a dirt yard littered with all styles of dining implements, there was even a couch, with only grimy cushion. Out here on the street it smelled of sweet perfume, and musky cologne, of livestock and spiced goods. There was even the faint hint of wine mulling about, which meant there must be a vendor in town offering samples of his wares. Jonathan made a note to check later, right now he had more important business to attend to. The letter stuffed into his breast pocket had been delivered via messenger, dressed in the golds and reds of the faction colors. Matthus had delivered on his promise, and now Jonathan was steadily making his way towards the Guardian headquarters to meet with General First Class, Paxton Bradley. 

He turn off the lonely side street and found himself on one of the main avenues. He was quite familiar with this area, all of the city really, but this was one of the main roads leading up towards the central offices of the Winged Guardians. Here there were throngs of people milling about, in their mixed garbs of every style from desert raider to homely wife. This road was well paved, of solid packed dirt, and only offered dull thuds as Jonathan made his way past the thick clusters of shops, scattered homes, and multitudes of street peddlers hawking their wares. Russel was truly one of the most beautifully diverse cities, not that Jonathan had been to very many of them. The occasional mission to the outlying towns and villages, but he's never been past the borders since he left his previous Gaen home.

Awhile later down the road, as the yellow sun stretched across the horizon. It would be about evening now, just past the earliest stages though. He stood outside the regional headquarters for the Winged Guardians. The center of the immense military force itself, the whole operation stemmed from this one building. It had once been a lonely little office, buried within a myriad of others specializing in just about everything, that was before Motum Diversum had actually risen to power and established the Guardians as the faction appropriated warriors. Now it was a monolithic structure, the entire compound surrounded by a thick, metal wall with its own guard towers. Two large, heavy iron doors stood open, guarded by a small post of soldiers.

Jonathan approached the soldier sitting behind a low, smooth metal table smoking a cigarette. It was evident from the abundance of burned out stubs that this was pretty much all he did during his post. Jonathan cleared his throat, grabbing the man's attention.

<font color=""green"">”Ya? What?”</font> He asked halfheartedly, his gaze only lingering on Jon for a moment before wandering back off to stare into the distance, probably lost in some daydream of scantily clad women in a shady bar.

<font color=""cyan"">”Is my name on that list, or am I going to have to bribe you?”</font> Jonathan sneered, his foot tapping in irritation.

The man huffed out a cloud of smoke before turning resentfully to the list. He made a facade of looking at it, no longer than a full second, before waving Jon in dismissively. Jon glared at him for a moment in vain, as the man had already turned back to watch the sun set slowly from behind his tinted shades. Jonathan gave up his notion of berating the man for his lack of sensible duty, and chose to walk beneath the wide awning of the walkway above him.

The headquarters loomed before him, easily the tallest, and largest structure in the city. Ten floors of militaristic operations, intelligence, and communications. It had once been a wonder to him why a building that large was needed. A monumental tower rising above a large, squat, three story base. The thick double doors were pulled open for him as he walked up the polished steps, it was also the best restored piece of architecture. It seemed flawless.

The elevator dinged, the sleek metallic doors sliding open to a brightly lit corridor before him. It looked the same as the last, a pleasingly uniform design. His boots clapped lightly against the shiny linoleum tiles, seamless and without impurity. At the end of the pristine hallway, on the tenth floor, a door stood closed before him. The mottled glass texture held a sign bolted just below it.

<span class=""bb-i"">General First Class: Paxton Bradley.</span>

He knocked lightly.

<font color=""indianred"">”Come in, Jon.”</font>



The general sat behind his large desk, polished until it gleamed under the bright white lightning set in the ceiling. A group of papers were stacked neatly to one side, next to an orderly positioned lamp and pen holder. The other side held a half empty bottle of what was most assuredly fine whiskey, held in a similarly colored wooden stand. Two empty circles on either side of the bottle had held the tempered drinking glasses, now resting in two separate hands with the dark liquid sloshing again the sides. Jonathan had just spent some time explaining his story, his concerns and ideals, to the General, who listened with a blank, but focused expression. Every so often he would nod in agreement, but he hadn't of said anything while Jon spoke. Now they sat in contemplative silence, letting the silence in the room thicken. 

<font color=""indianred"">”I'll admit, not enough of these... <span class=""bb-i"">concerns</span> make it to my desk,”</font> He started, eloquently, <font color=""indianred"">“I wonder who is stiffling the flow of such... <span class=""bb-i"">concerning</span> reports.”</font>

Jonathan cleared his throat, a tad nervous in the presence of such a prestigious man. <font color=""cyan"">”I do not have the answer to that, Sir. But, with my proposal, such things wouldn't be of much concern anymore.”</font>
<font color=""indianred"">”There would be certain benefits to this idea of yours. I rather like it myself, but are you certain you can control such a thing?”</font>
<font color=""cyan"">”In all due respect, Sir, These Immortals, are not things. They're people, but more than that. The guardians are just people too, but imagine the implications of such an advancement. We could start over, we could get it right this time. It would be as easy as controlling an animal, not that they don't act like such. I'm sure you've heard about Adam.”</font>
<font color=""indianred"">”Yes, an unfortunate event, but enlightening. Honestly, I'd like to thank that little arrogant princess. If it hadn't of been for that bloody display of violence, I may have never had this conversation with you.”</font>
<font color=""cyan"">”I do owe her the circumstance, the means were crude and only resulted in kicking the hornet's next, so to speak. Just picture it, our own Winged Immortals marching down the street, unstoppable.”</font>
<font color=""indianred"">”That, is the only problem I have with this so far, should it succeed.”</font> The General stated, voicing his only real concern, yet he had no doubt that the man before him had a solution in mind.

<font color=""cyan"">”Awhile ago there was a project being developed by the scientists in Aspin. A tracking chip for vehicles, and a mobile module that could receive the signal. I hardly think it would be a challenge for them to implement a.. collar, for our animals.”</font>
<font color=""indianred"">”Now that, is brilliant. Why the hell don't I have more like you Jon? I swear if only they had succeeded in cloning.”</font>

Jonathan smiled at the general's praise. He wasn't called brilliant very often, and from a man such as Paxton Bradley, it was better than a badge of honor. <font color=""cyan"">”And of course, I volunteer to be patient zero.”</font>

The general laughed mirthfully, emptying his glass of whiskey, <font color=""indianred"">”Ah! I would hope so. You didn't strike me as the kind of man to sit back contently, no, you're a man of action, Jon. I'll make the necessary arrangements. Also, you may be pleased to know I've gotten word of a shipment coming in, from Grayson.”</font>
<font color=""cyan"">”Oh? From my brother?”</font> Jon asked, his interest piqued.

<font color=""indianred"">”Seems in his <span class=""bb-i"">spare time</span> he developed something, two things actually, that I think will go quite nicely with this project you've come up with.”</font>
<font color=""cyan"">”Spare time, hah! That sounds like him. I look forward to it, Sir.”</font> Jon mused proudly. He brother was something else, an achievement for the human race itself.

<font color=""indianred"">”If this is successful, I'll see about contacting those scientists. No need to stir up the brains before we need to, and I doubt I have to worry about a man such as yourself.”</font> The general said, standing from his plush, rolling office chair as a signal that it was time for Jon to go.

<font color=""cyan"">”Of course, Sir. Nothing would please me more than to serve my faction.”</font> Jon replied, wholeheartedly. No doubt, underneath the general's apparent unconcern for rebelliousness he was thinking on how easy it would be to eliminate any potential, metahuman threats. 

<font color=""indianred"">”You should receive word by tonight. It won't be hard to arrange a.. <span class=""bb-i"">volunteer</span>. As for manpower, I know four men who would, after seeing your success, happily oblige to fall under your command.”</font>

Jonathan's pride swelled,<font color=""cyan"">”Thank you General, I look forward to success in our endeavors.”</font> Jon shook the general's calloused hand with his own energetically. This was all happening much faster than he had anticipated, but the general obviously saw the urgency in the matter.

The door closed softly behind him as he walked back towards the elevator, passing office after office. Only the higher ranking officials were located up here, but Jon was too preoccupied to imagine himself up here one day-- his mind was swimming with the future prospects of his career.

He was so, undoubtedly happy at this moment.

133,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-20 19:21:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A few moments passed before she got her answers. Moments during which she listened to the gentle music. It didn’t quite fit her tastes, but she figured that it was alright for background noise. At being addressed, she turned her head to look at the young woman, the rest of her body following soon. 

“That must be a record,” she said with a fair amount of humour in her voice. “Only about ten seconds after we’ve met and you already ask if I want to kill you.” She paused, a small smile spreading across her lips, the jazz momentarily filling the silence between them. “Let me answer that with another question: I’m a woman, and—” she reached up to her goggles, taking them off in a fluid motion and putting them in the bag she carried with her, revealing eyes of solid green, interrupted only by a slitted pupils “—this. Which do you think it is?” 

“Well…” Lucania’s eyes, almost matching the woman’s, became green with surprise. She hadn’t spent much time around those suffering from the same affliction as she, and while her actions today had certainly been driven by a personal revenge, she couldn’t deny that she had hoped it would serve as something of a calling to those like her… Those few who had survived the Sickness.

“I should hope you’ll let me take care of that empty glass.” Her eyes met with the bartender’s, and she didn’t even need to speak to alert him of the need for refills. As he moved to fill their glasses with more bootlegged alcohol, Lucania’s gaze met again with the beastial eyes of the red-haired woman, “Lucania.” She said, as if her name carried enough weight without including the last, “I don’t recall ever actually meeting anyone else with… what is it? The immortal affliction?”

“Evelina. Evelina Quinn, actually.” Her eyes darted to the bartender briefly, noting that he seemed well at ease with two Immortals sitting in front of him. The only reason she’d even revealed herself was because no one else here seemed to care that Lucania was “afflicted.” 

“I don’t really know what they call it,” she said at length. “Only that we’re called Immortals and have survived The Sickness.” Perhaps it was subconsciously, but she couldn’t help but notice how she lowered her voice as she spoke. Consciously raising her voice to a normal level, she continued. “But to answer your question—properly, this time—I guess it is neither. You were brutal, that much is obvious, but I also think you were fair.” Sighing, she grabbed her now re-filled glass and sipped from it. It still tasted foul, but it was easier to deal with when she wasn’t gulping it down. “The things you said made me… curious, perhaps. I wanted to both meet you, and see if there was anything I could do.” A sidelong smirk lit up on her face. “I am a medic, after all. Or doctor, or healer. Whichever you call it.”

“Hmm…” Lucania found herself looking down, in the glass of golden firewater, she could see her face, the slight gleam in her eyes, and the physical changes that occurred when her mind those still tender memories. “Healer?” She was aware the sadness was literally painted across her expression, in more ways than just deep blue eyes. She wasn’t going to cry, but she did need to acknowledge the pain, lest she’d suffer a fate of reliving it. 

Perhaps it was the alcohol loosening her tongue, perhaps the Healer Evelina, with her cat-like eyes had a calming aura, whatever it was, in that moment, she felt relaxed. “You’re perceptive.” Further inhibiting her anxieties with more alcohol, “There aren’t enough perceptive healers in the world…” Lucania’s voice drifted off.

A moment later, she rested her cheek on her hand as she began to speak, “I… wanted him to feel the pain he had caused me-- I told myself it would be for everyone he had ever hurt, but, when it came down to it…” She lost herself staring into the glass again, her tone contemplative, “I simply didn’t care. I wanted him to hurt because he wronged <span class=""bb-i"">me</span>. I still do.” As she looked back up at Evelina, she laughed, “I’ve probably already made that much obvious, haven’t I?”

“Perhaps a little,” Evelina conceded with a gentle smile. “My life as an Immortal hasn’t been easy; I lost my home because of it. I’d be lying if I said that I hadn’t tried to look for scapegoats before, but… there simply aren’t any. We humans are egocentric, and we think of ourselves above all else, with very few exceptions.” 

A few moments of silence passed with Evelina silently studying Lucania’s face. The beauty of the other was forgotten in those moments, as she simply looked to learn how to read her. At one point which could have been several minutes later, she chanced lifting a hand to her shoulder, placing it gently on a silent show of support. “I don’t think it was wrong of you to want to hurt him. I would do the same.” A pause. “Who was it?” 

The question hit Lucania hard—harder than she would have liked, harder than she would have thought—her body tensed, all the frustrations of the last 8 years came to her, and she couldn’t do anything to hide it, or run away from it, as she registered the question she had no choice but to feel its full brunt. “You are…” she forced herself to take another sip of the booze, softening her expression, “...an <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> perceptive healer, Miss Quinn…”

“Hmmm… She was…” Unconsciously, she studied the room as she searched for the appropriate word; she observed it’s smoking patrons, all facing some kind of loss, all dealing with it in some unhealthy. Even Evelina had lost something, her home, apparently. Everyone dealt with it, this place, this city, almost seemed to be where it came to fester. Yet, for Lucania, a pretty stranger had just come up to her and lent an ear. The word escaped her lips without the intervention of thought, “Odd.”

She let the word linger and dissipate in the smoky air, before giving a genuine, if melancholic, giggle. “She was odd,” She continued, not quite smiling, but with a slight upward curve in her lips, “She was my heart… my innamorata…” The laugh gave rise to a smirk, “I loved her, and she was a fucking weirdo!”

Lucania took in a deep breath of the stale air, releasing a relieved exhaling, “Have you ever read The Iliad? I suppose, in a way, that she’s like my own Helen of Troy… Right down to the useless war I may have just started because of her.”

Evelina was afraid that her question had angered Lucania for a moment. Heaven’s knew that she did not have any intentions of starting a fight or causing any anger, yet she had asked. It had been a gamble, one that—judging by the softening of Lucania’s expression—seemed to have gone off in her favour. She kept her own expression a gentle one, using every trick in the doctor’s book to how to make the patient feel at ease with her mere presence. 

She was elated, then, when she started speaking, slowly at first and then a bit quicker. She nodded every once in a while, smiling genuinely once or twice, especially at the mention of how she “loved her.” 

<span class=""bb-i"">A girlfriend, then?</span> Her smile widened imperceptibly.

At the end of her small speech she found herself at a loss for words. Not so much because of any major revelations, but because of the question. “I can’t say that I have. Not sure if I’ve heard of it either. What’s it about?” <span class=""bb-i"">Useless war? I’m curious, but… I don’t think I should pry. It’s probably that guy from before. Adam, was it?</span> Her eyes became hard and searching for a moment, the look disappearing almost immediately afterwards. <span class=""bb-i"">She’s not a normal girl, that much is for certain. Neither is this bar; no sane bar owner would allow two Immortals to just sit and chat away. There’s something more about her.</span>

Lucania’s smile went from gentle to cocky in an instant, “What is it?” She repeated, mostly to herself, as if to feign deep thought, she rested her chin on her hand, “It’s book about the <span class=""bb-i"">Old World’s</span> Old World! Two of these tribes begin to fight each other over the love of Helen of Troy—” Her smile widens as she recalls the story, “Helen was particularly beautiful because her father was a God— Zeus— but he mated with an earthly woman from a place much more pure than Dust by becoming a swan…” She looked over to Evelina, as if anticipating the odd looks, “I know, the Old World Gods were very… odd, as well. Anyway, these two tribes ended up fighting over her BECAUSE of that beauty, not despite it. Helen was viewed, by many, as a trophy of conquest.”

Lucania stopped for a moment to breath, her eyes were like honey as she continued, “Personally, I prefered The Odyssey, but I never get to talk to ANYONE about this stuff, so really if you wanted to know more about The Iliad, I wouldn’t mind explaining it.” She thought for a moment, before touching her hand to her head in frustration, “<span class=""bb-i"">Cazzo…</span>” She muttered before continuing, “I know I’ve got a copy of it somewhere, but it’s probably in my… place of residence… in Serenity…” She sighed, “Oh well… That’ll be a good reminder to have my books brought up sometime…”

The gods of the old world did indeed sound odd, Evelina agreed, though she did not speak it out loud. She simply nodded and kept silent as Lucania continued her small speech. It was rather entertaining despite how alien the topic was. She knew very little of the old world, having read almost nothing but medical books in her years of growing up, except for a small number of fairy tales as a child, most of which her mother had regaled to her as bedtime stories. She kept her focus mostly on the younger woman as she spoke, only looking away once to grab her glass and sip from it. 

“An interesting tale,” she said after Lucania had finished. “It’s—” she stopped mid-sentence suddenly, staring at the brunette’s shoulder, eyes widening ever so slightly and cheeks turning rose. “Sorry,” she continued after a short while, “I should probably remove my hand.” She chuckled awkwardly and, removing her hand from Lucania’s shoulder, placed it back in her own lap. She hadn’t even realised that she was still holding it there. 

Lucania chuckled, “It’s quite alright.” She found herself amused at the woman’s slight blush. Probably due to equal parts emotion and influence of alcohol, her eyes shifted from an amused yellow to a slight plum color during the interaction. She took another sip of her seemingly bottomless drink.

“As I was saying, It’s a little familiar, some of it at least. You mentioned the Odyssey? Isn’t that the godly mountain or something? Or was that Olympan?” She scratched her head idly, racking her brain for the information, as her eyes drifted to the ceiling in thought. Bringing her gaze back to the plum coloured eyes. <span class=""bb-i"">Wait…</span> She tilted her head, brows furrowing and nose scrunching up in thought. “I’ve noticed your eyes… They change colour fairly often. Before they were yellow, not they’re… plum… purple? Do they change systematically with a certain interval between each, or does it have to do with something else?” 

A girlish giggle escaped Lucania’s lips, “No, no,” She leaned in closer to Evelina, “<span class=""bb-i"">Olympus</span> is the mountain where the Gods reside, <span class=""bb-i"">The Odyssey</span> is the story of Odysseus! I prefer it over The Iliad because of it’s emphasis of intelligence over strength…” 

“As for my eyes…” Lucania smirked, her lips parted only slightly, “I’ve found they’re fairly straightforward, they become a yellowish-gold for happy, blue for sad, red for angry…” Lucania risked placing her hand over Evelina’s, “Purple can be anything from pleasure to… a more personal attraction…”

Lucania was flush with emotion, as she leaned in closer to Evelina, with her wild red hair, the pair’s lips were probably less than an inch apart as Lucania whispered, “Which do you think it is?”

Evelina listened intently as Lucania explained, near-ruby lips pursed in thought as she worked to categorize the information, a task made slightly more difficult thanks to the alcohol in her system; she was, after all, not used to drinking, and more than one glass of this drink had taken its toll on her, as evident by the pleasant buzz in her body. She was about to open her mouth to reply when she felt a hand on her own, silencing her. Her eyes flitted from those purple eyes to the small hand over her own, and back again, only to find said eyes—and face—even closer than before. She almost didn’t hear the last part. Almost. 

She parted her own lips slightly, though not quite enough to reveal her canines. “I’m not quite sure what to guess,” she said, her voice lower and more uncertain than before. Her cheeks became an even deeper red, coming closer to matching her hair than they had in more years than she cared to count. “But… I think…” She could lean forward. It’d be so easy. Just try it out. Find the answer to a question she had asked herself for so long. 

<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-i"">No. It wouldn’t be right. She’s drunk, so am I.</span></font>
<font color=""#ec008c""><span class=""bb-i"">Is it really wrong? The signs are there. She wants to.</span></font>
<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-i"">I can’t take advantage of it for my own selfish reasons!</span></font>
<font color=""#ec008c""><span class=""bb-i"">Is it really selfish? Or are you just afraid?</span></font>
<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-i"">I am not afraid. I’m just… uncertain.</span></font>
<font color=""#ec008c""><span class=""bb-i"">If you do not want to act, then wait. Let her act.</span></font>
<font color=""#0054a6""><span class=""bb-i"">...Okay.</span></font>

With her inner dialogue done, her focus returned to the land of the living. She was still face to face with Lucania, still so close that the smell of sunflowers wafting off of her was as clear to her as the plum-coloured eyes. 

She didn’t move, didn’t say anything. She just waited, expectantly, gazes locked; eyes gentle. 

The room went completely silent, for a moment, the two Immortal strangers were the only people in the room. To Lucania, at least, they were the only two that mattered. The amusement in her eyes didn’t fade as she tilted her head, “Mmmm… You didn’t answer my question…” She could feel the nervous breath of the other spread warmly across her lips as it left her body, “Here..” Lucania’s hand left Evelina’s lap, it traced it’s way up her body, fingertips barely meeting her curves. Their cheeks only lightly brushed as she whispered into her companion’s ear, “It’s okay… I’ll answer for you.”

She let her errant hand get lost in Evelina’s hair before it found it’s way to rest on her cheek. For a moment, their eyes met again. After the heavy moment had passed; that silent wordless, heavy moment between eyes green and deep purple passed.

Lucania closed the distance.

Their lips met in a kiss. A drunken kiss. A genuine kiss. It meant both nothing and the world. Lucania pulled Evelina closer in the embrace. For that kiss, she let her worries melt away. For that kiss, the world didn’t matter; all that mattered was the warmth she felt, the softness of Evelina’s skin, the feeling of a long forgotten pleasure. 

She could not speak. Any word or phrase she might have uttered was strangled before it even had the chance to be said. But she didn’t want to say anything. Be it the alcohol or the vicinity of a woman as beautiful as Lucania, she didn’t know, but something made everything in the vicinity seem like it was slowing down to a crawl. 

A shiver went up her spine as the hand on top of her own started moving, sliding gently across her thigh, and up along her waist. The touch was light, and something she had done to her patients more times than she cared to count. It was a touch that was… seeking, like she did when looking for a fracture, yet this felt so different, so much more important. She reached out tentatively, running her own hand gently along Lucania’s curves, a faint smile spreading across her lips at the sensation of the velvety dress underneath her fingers.

She looked up again, green and purple meeting. She felt fingers running through her hair, and then lips. For the first time in her life, Evelina was kissed. Her eyes flew open, her body going rigid for just a moment before she melted, closing her eyes and pushed back, though only a little. She returned the embrace, wrapping both arms carefully around the other woman, trying her best to reciprocate. No matter how hard she tried, however, it was no doubt easy to tell that she was new at this. Very new.

Time slowed for Lucania. She could feel each beat of their fluttering hearts, each touch from Evelina felt amplified, as their bodies pressed against each other with their lips, she felt as though her entire form might spasm.

Luckily for her, moments were just that; all doomed to come to an eventual end.

For this particular moment, it occurred as Lucania broke their embrace for air. Slowly, as she opened her eyes, she immediately noticed several things; everything seemed to be brighter, nearly everyone at the bar had their eyes glued to the scene, and perhaps the most important thing, was that Evelina was still there. She had, for a moment, thought that she might have been dreaming it all.

Some would call her aggressive—Lucania would agree. As she leaned back in, planting kisses along Evelina’s cheek and exposed neck, she didn’t hesitate in asking between kisses, “First time with a woman?”


“First time ever,” she replied with a short chuckle. “I’ve never as much as embraced someone else before now, except for my parents.” And how she had missed out, she thought. Those short few moments where nothing had existed but the two of them were some of the best she had ever had. The warmth, the closeness, the security she felt, and so much more still flooded her mind and made her cheeks warm and heart beat just that much faster. Not a thought had been given to the people around them, not a one to her own doubts. Everything except Lucania had been drowned out in the instant their lips met, and she would trade it for nothing.

“I gotta say,” she continued after a while, cheeks becoming an even darker shape of scarlet, if that were at all possible, from the kisses on her cheek and neck. “I hadn’t expected this to happen.” She chuckled again. “I just hope you don’t regret it, or won’t come to.” 

“Mmm,” Lucania moaned in an immediate response, she lingered on Evelina’s neck a moment longer; she possessed the most pleasant scent of gasoline and liquor. Her skin lightly perspired, and with each soft brush against the neck, she felt Evelina shudder with each new sensation, her blood warm…

<span class=""bb-i"">Blood warm… Warmblood… Like the breed of horse!</span>

Lucania’s eyes narrowed, she stopped for a second. <span class=""bb-i"">Why am I thinking of horses right now?</span> She continued her necking. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe Diane really was right…</span> For the time being, she shook the thoughts from her mind and replied to Evelina, “On the contrary, Miss Quinn, I’m honored.” Lucania’s eyes, now a richer violet, found their ways to get lost into Evelina’s feral green, “On a…” She paused, choosing her phrasing carefully, “...<span class=""bb-i"">completely</span> unrelated note… Where were you planning on going after you left here tonight? You’re a drifter, are you not? Do you have family here?”

For the most part Evelina simply sat motionless, her hands resting on Lucania’s hips. It might be wrong to say that she was lost in the sensation of the lips against her neck, but she certainly did enjoy it, soft and warm as it was. “Heh, honoured. It’s nice knowing that I’m… appreciated like that.” Unnoticed even by herself were the slight hitch on her voice, as if the sentence was more sincere than even she realised. 

A few more moments of silence passed with only their individuals breathing making any sound. Not even the bar around them seemed to so much as breathe. But like all good things must come to an end, so did the silence between Luciana and Evelina. The question did catch her off guard, but the transparency of it elicited a loud chuckle. “I am a drifter, yes. And no, I don’t have any family here nor a place to stay. I simply came to send a letter and get some more food and water.” Her eyes twinkled as she looked down at the smaller woman. “I guess that leaves me with no choice but to stay at an inn?” 

“Ugh,” Lucania exaggerated her disgust, “I wouldn’t stay at one of those horrid excuses for a bed and bath if someone paid me! Honestly…” Lucania’s voice was smug, but self-assured, “All you have to do is ask, dear, they’d probably give you the room for free…” Her drink had been getting lonely, she sloshed around the golden liquids before taking a larger sip, “...this club is <span class=""bb-i"">basically</span> mine, after all.”

Giggles rippled from past her lips at the sarcastic and cocky statement from Lucania. It was so over the top that she couldn’t stop laughing even if she wanted to. Even if she didn’t want to, however, the last bit of what she said did make her stop. She had been transparent before, but now she was being just blunt. 

“So what I’m hearing is that you want to spend the night with me?” She asked, a smirk pulling at her lips, which only grew at the look of surprise she received. “Yes, you’re that obvious,” she continued, chuckling. “I wouldn’t mind, but… I’d ask for it to be separate beds. I’m still new at this… whatever it is,” she waved her hand at the both of them. “I’d prefer to go slow, at least until I figure myself out. Make no mistake, I have absolutely no experience with this. At all.” She looked mildly uncomfortable for a moment, and mirrored Lucania’s action of sipping from her drink. “I hope you’re okay with this.” <span class=""bb-i"">And hope I didn’t just make a fool of myself by assuming things.</span>

Lucania feigned a gasp, “Miss Evelina Quinn, I do declare!” She placed a hand on her own chest, pretending as if the words had physically wounded her, “I would expect nothing less than a 5 star dinner and a play before you asked me to share a bed with you! How so very scandalous!” Lucania began to fan herself with her hand, she mimicked the shaky voices of so many ‘proper’ older women, “Oh! You’ve gone and given me a case of the vapors!”

Lucania stepped off of her bar stool, she laid the back of her hand across her forehead, “Goodness! Evelina dearest… as a healer I’ll need you to escort me to my fainting chair… But nothing more tonight!” Her expression became less exaggerated, returning to the smirk she had started with, hints of her hubris painted all over it, “I am a woman of <span class=""bb-i"">high standing</span> after all! It will require more than your pelvic sorcery to win my affections... <span class=""bb-i"">my newest suitor</span>.” Lucania gave a slight curtsy to the sitting Evelina before offering her hand.

<span class=""bb-i"">Yeah, there’s nothing to be afraid of,</span> Evelina thought, her smirk widening into a fully fledged smile. She took the proffered hand and stood up, now seeing the true height difference between them. <span class=""bb-i"">She’s… quite a bit smaller than I expected.</span> 

“Hubris, my dear,” she answered Lucania, her tone as refined as she could make it. “Who was it that kissed me first, hmm?” Daring a wink, she continued. “I believe, if anything, that you’re the one attempting ‘pelvic sorcery’... whatever that actually is.” 

In the silence that followed, she took her chance to glance around at the bar, and its patrons, around them. There were still those who looked at them, those who glanced, and lastly the people who had had their fill of “entertainment.” Looking around brought another thought to mind as well. She remembered how the bartender seemed completely at ease with two women who were obviously Immortals, and she hadn’t attempted to hide her eyes since she took off her goggles, so more people would know of her condition. Yet none seemed disgusted or even afraid, and just acted like she was another normal person. 

She looked back at the smaller brunette, one eyebrow rising slightly. <span class=""bb-i"">So that’s why they never said anything. Like she said, this bar is basically hers.</span> She puffed out her cheeks, a thoughtful expression falling over her features for a short while. <span class=""bb-i"">She definitely isn’t just any normal girl,</span> she thought as she lifted her right arm in a silent invitation. “Shall we?” She asked, smiling. “Your ‘fainting chair’ awaits.” 

It was an invitation Lucania accepted, with all of the grace instilled in her by the family. As she locked arms with Evelina, she practically tripped. Leading the pair through the crowd, she found herself stumbling more and more, and the further they went, the more she found herself leaning on Evelina—she was able to admit to herself that it wasn’t entirely for support. She found she liked being close to the woman, and their difference in size made the not-so-subtle nuzzling extremely easy. 

She led the two to a stairwell, directly behind the stage, as they passed it Lucania muttered, “I completely forgot…” 

“Forgot what?” 

The pair paused their trek while Lucania took in the sight of the stage, a band playing smooth with no singer at the microphone. “Oh, it’s nothing. I was just supposed to perform tonight is all…” She sighed, then shrugged, her gaze shifting to the crowd, “I imagine they’re all to drunk to care much, now. Still...” She began to, slowly, make her way up the stairs, “...It seems you may be more of a bad influence than I’d initially thought!”

<span class=""bb-i"">She’s more drunk than I thought,</span> Evelina mused, noting how heavily Lucania leaned into her for support. <span class=""bb-i"">No wonder with how small she is.</span> She kept silent for a while after the accusation of being a bad influence, her ever-present smile widening slightly. “I’m a bad influence? Since when? You’re the one who caused a scene down there!” 

“No…” She waved her hand, as if she was removing cobwebs from the air, “My whole job is to cause scenes!” She planted a wet kiss on Evelina’s cheek, “I think you’ve charmed me! Like a witch! Sent to put me under your spell!” As they reached the top of the stairs, Lucania opened the nearest door before turning to Evelina, “I’ve got to tell you; it’s working.”

Evelina sighed, shaking her head in amusement. “Your job right now, Miss Lucania, is to show me where our room is so I can take a shower, and you can get to bed.” She wrapped her arm around her to aid in supporting. “You’re just a tiny bit drunk, you know… and I’m not a witch.” She wrinkled her nose in mock disgust. “They have big noses and more years than I care to count on their butt. I have neither.”

“I’m not drunk! I’m...” The door led to another hallway, as she stumbled through it she shifted her head, as if she was searching in the dim light for a particular word, or perhaps the right door, maybe both. “I’m just tired!” Lucania was aware of her own denial, the tiny sips had added up, “But you’re right, you aren’t a witch, you’re… a nymph, like Calypso!” 

Her eyes began to droop as her own fatigue combined with the intoxication, “I’ll explain it later…” She sighed and opened another door, this one opening into a pristine looking room, designed similarly to the club’s main floor. “Here it is!” She kicked off her heels, slightly improving her balance as she walked over to the bed in the center of the room, “They designed it like my place in Serenity, but they couldn’t find a bed as big as mine, so I’m told they just pushed two together…” She dropped her purse before she began to pull at the frame of one of the beds, with minimal results.

“Tired, right. And not at all tipsy from… three of those drinks? It was powerful stuff, I’m sure of that,” she said, teasingly poking Lucania in the side. “Just admit that you’re just the tiniest bit drunk.” She winked. “I may even have a cure for the coming hangover.” 

She followed her into the room, mouth hanging slightly agape at the sight of it. Not only was it big, but it was probably the finest room she had ever laid eyes upon; her parents’ house didn’t even come close to the prestige that this room seemed to ooze from every corner. She was about to ask how Lucania had gotten access to this room, but was interrupted by the sudden revelation of just how much smaller she actually was now that her heels had been taken off. 

“You’re small,” she said bluntly, too much so. Not a second had passed before she slapped her forehead with her palm. “Sorry, that wasn’t very nice. I should know better than to point out other people’s… differences.” The sight of Lucania trying to move the two beds apart greeted her when she lowered her hand from her forehead, a slightly comical sight of she had to be honest. Silently, she walked over to her and grabbed hold of the frame of the bed and pulled. Nothing seemed to happen.

“Is this thing bolted to the floor?” She muttered, taking a step back. “Lucania, take a step back. I wanna try something.” 

With a huff, Lucania halted her efforts to separate the beds, “Why would it be bolted…” Shaking her head, she did as Evelina had ordered, before sinking to the floor, “Maybe we’re both too small…”

Evelina smirked, walking over to the foots of the beds. “What does it matter being small if you can do <span class=""bb-i"">this.</span>” She extended both arms forward, palms of her hands facing each other. A shimmer appeared in the air between the beds, similar to the air above a fire. Slowly, and carefully, Evelina increased the distance between her palms the shimmer in between the beds dividing into two. The screeching sound of a heavy wooden object being pushed across wood filled the air as Evelina pushed the beds away from each other, stopping once there was approximately one and a half metre between them. 

She lowered her arms, her smirk still present. “There, that should do it.” She looked at Lucania. “That okay with you?” 

“Yeah that’s…” She pulled herself off the floor, only to fall on the nearest bed, she shifted on her side to face Evelina, her expression still incredulous, “Incredible… What… was it?”

She raised a closed fist to eye level, looking intently at Lucania over it. With a theatrical movement, she opened her palm, above which hovered what could only be described as a miniature sun. It was a small orb of yellow-ish white light, strong enough to illuminate Evelina’s face from where she held it, but little more. 

“Light,” she said, “I have the ability to control light, and what I just used was light solidified into a barrier of sorts. I’m a… defensive type Immortal, I guess you could say. It fits with me being a healer, doesn’t it?” She grinned, cheekily. “Any other questions? If not I’d like to take a shower. I haven’t bathed for days.” 

“That’s interesting…” However, the interest was only temporary, Lucania’s eyes went wide as she registered what she had just said fully, “<span class=""bb-i"">Days?</span> Ugh. If you don’t go now, I’ll bathe you myself!” She touched her hand to her forehead, comprehending her unintentional innuendo, “In a non-sexual way! Just go!” 

Laughing, Evelina headed for the adjacent bathroom, only stopping in the doorway for a brief second to say, “that’s what happens when you’re a Drifter. Not many chances to bathe.” It might’ve just been her imagination, but she could’ve sworn she heard a pillow hit the door just as she closed it behind her. She chuckled to herself again, despite the show of violence earlier that day, Lucania was actually a rather kind and entertaining person.

She stripped quickly and entered the shower, warm water falling from the showerhead in liquid streams of bliss. The shower could very well be the most refreshing thing she had ever experienced: The water hitting her body and soaking her hair. Dirt and grime falling off of her body, and loosening her sore muscles. She quickly washed and simply spent the next half hour standing in the water, eyes closed in quiet bliss. 

It couldn’t last forever, of course, and after a while she turned off the water and stepped out, drying off as best she could and putting her jeans and T-shirt back on, leaving the bandages in the bathroom. She stepped out with a towel still in her heads, working to drain the last bit of moisture from her hair which, at the moment, fell over her right shoulder. “That was nice,” she said to no one in particular, throwing the towel over the back of a nearby chair. 

Lucania stirred. She hadn’t fallen into a deep sleep and woke easily, she turned under the covers to see a newly cleansed Evelina. As her senses returned, she noticed a difference between this Evelina and the Evelina that had entered the shower. Lucania’s eyes had never changed color so fast, her cheeks flushed red with the blood beneath them at the… surprise.

<span class=""bb-i"">Surprises?</span>

“Umm…” She couldn’t formulate a response. Lucania Cleodora Melia Castalia couldn’t formulate a response. This was a first for her. She tore her eyes away from the ‘<span class=""bb-i"">surprises</span>’ to inquire about… something, “I’d… I’d wager it was. You look nice. I mean, you looked nice before, but now you look… different?” Lucania slapped her hand to her forehead, turning in the bed to stare at the ceiling, before looking at her own chest, her voice held a tinge of jealousy, “I guess I am small…”

At first Evelina simply tilted her head in confusion, uncertain as to why Lucania acted as she did. She couldn’t help but giggle at the red cheeks and green eyes. She had a feeling that the term “green with envy” was very apt when it came to Lucania. 

“Thanks,” she said, genuinely thankful for the compliments. She stepped closer and sat on the edge of the already occupied bed. “But it’s not really you that’s small, it’s just me that’s... “ she looked down at her chest, grimacing. “It’s just me that’s huge.” She turned back to the prone woman, reaching out to brush a lock of brown hair out of Luciana’s eye with the tip of her finger. “So no need to be jealous. Heck, I should be the jealous one; you’re far more beautiful than I.” She could’ve slapped herself. The alcohol was clearly the one speaking. <span class=""bb-i"">I’m going to cringe so many times when I wake up tomorrow. So many cringeworthy comments,</span> she thought. 

“You are a shameless flirt…” Lucania observed, “Or perhaps you’re just really good at hiding your shame… either way it’s adorable.”

“My shame.” She let the word hang in the air for a while, eyes glazing over. “I... “ She shook her head, the light returning to her eyes. “It’s not that I’m a flirt, I’m just being honest… and adorable? Perhaps. Eitherway, you’re drunk and tired, and I think you should go to sleep.” She stood up. “I will be, at least.”

“Hmm,” Lucania sighed. Evelina was right, she was practically asleep already and the sooner she got to work sleeping off whatever grog she had been served tonight, the better, “Alright,” Before succumbing to Hypnos’ tendrils, however, she did move to grab Evelina’s hand, placing a soft kiss on it’s back, she looked into Evelina’s eyes with green eyes of her own, “Goodnight, Evelina.”

A blush rose to Evelina’s cheeks, courtesy of the kiss. It was such a simple, and old, gesture. A kiss on the hand was nothing more than a greeting. Yet even thinking that did nothing to lessen the rose in her cheeks. Composing herself, she gave Lucania a wide smile before heading for her own bed, a quick “Good night,” was uttered before she lay down and pulled the covers over herself. “Sleep well.” 


<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">—End Day—</span></div></div>"
134,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-20 20:20:00,Prophecy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The pair walked side-by-side in the warm late-afternoon breeze, a cigarette hanging loosely between Sydney's fingers and a cigar resting between Jackson's lips. The air was heavy, harbouring a dank aroma that had manifested steadily alongside the ever-growing poverty-stricken populace of the slums, and accompanying it, a sinister undertone that seemed to linger wherever one retreated. The scent of gunpowder, or of blood. Underfoot shattered glass crunched, and litter lined the edges of streets and alleyways in such a way that the ground underneath could rarely be seen. It was less of a home to the poor, and more of an elaborate trap designed to coax the non-contributing members of society into an early grave.

""This isn't good, is it, Jackson?"" Sydney asked. Her voice was naturally raspy, seductive according to men of The Dust. Even in the gravest of situations it had the tendency to sound a little too laid back. 

""No..."" He replied, breathing in a lungful of smoke and exhaling slowly. ""It's not."" 

They turned onto a narrow alleyway in silence. Against the decrepit walls lay groups of bodies, some afforded the luxury of a sleeping bag - despite the heat of the day not calling for one, others huddled beneath cardboard boxes or amongst a swath of rubbish. Jackson eyed each one with scrutiny. Their faces were obscured, but needless to say he recognized some simply by their size and shape, or the manner in which they curled up in an attempt to block out the fact of their bleak existence. It took only a moment before his gaze landed upon a luminous orange sleeping bag with the outline of a malnourished young man beneath its fabric. Jackson rested his boot on the man's side and rolled him over so that a pair of sleep-deprived eyes met his own.

""Money first,"" was all Jackson said.

""Jackson, hey..."" The man's eyes were wide, and ringed with dark lines and creases. He was more a boy than a man, having only just passed by his teenage years - as drug-fuelled and hazy as they may have been - yet he looked older. His face was gaunt and the skin hung from his bones in an appalling fashion. It was a pathetic sight, really. ""Look. I'm real sorry but-"" 

""Cut the bullshit, Twitch, I know you've got something to trade. You pay up or we leave.""

The young man, Twitch, sat up and looked about the alleyway. His head twitched to one side every couple of seconds and his hands clasped at the sleeping bag that covered his deteriorating wreck of a body. No one appeared to be awake. Even so, anyone who was awake would likely be uninterested in what he had to say.

""I... er, I can't buy from you no more, man..."" He said.

""Hm?"" Jackson knelt down on one knee so that their eyes were level. He regarded Twitch with a neutral expression for a moment before clasping his collar and forcing his head against the stone wall with enough force that rotting brick-work fell to the ground around them. Twitch let out a howl of pain, reaching for the back of his skull and finding his hands to be smeared with blood. He looked up to Jackson as if waiting for his next move. He didn't make one. ""Why can't you buy from me anymore?"" 

""I-I heard that... oh God... if you buy from, er, y'know small-time dealers they'll come after you..."" 

""Who will come after you?"" Jackson asked. There came no answer so he thrust the man’s head into the wall once more, raising his voice. ""Who?"" Around them the homeless began to stir, some muttering profanities under their breaths and attempting to fall back to sleep, others edging away from the scene or simply observing out of curiosity. Still Twitch refused to reply. Tears began to stream down his face and he sobbed into bloody hands. 

""Leave him, Jackson."" Sydney said in a tiring tone while she tapped the ashen end of the cigarette and approached him. He felt her tender touch on the back of his neck, a warm hand snaking down the neck of his shirt. She was kneeling beside him. He withdrew his gaze from the bloody mess in front of him and looked Sydney in the eyes. ""I know what he's talking about, alright. Just leave the poor guy alone and I'll explain.""

Jackson still held Twitch firmly by the collar. His knuckles were drained of blood from clenching the fabric so tightly, but caked in Twitch's own. It oozed slowly from a wound that neither Jackson nor Sydney could see and was already beginning to dry in intricate patterns on his skin. With a grunt Jackson stretched his fingers and allowed Twitch to collapse back into the wall. Another round of brickwork fell from above and settled in his hair, or stuck to the mixture of blood and tears that streaked his face. Twitch thanked and apologized to Jackson in a barely audible voice in between sniffles and a gravelly cough. 

***

""The Castalias?"" Jackson asked, preoccupied, his voice muffled by the cigar in his mouth. He worked furiously to try and remove some of the blood that was beginning to stain his hands, and picked at dried chunks that had settled underneath his fingernails. ""I thought they were down in Serenity causing trouble. What do they want up here?""

""I don't know, I got wind of some planned expansion. I didn't think it would matter."" She sucked on a freshly lit cigarettes, blowing smoke carelessly into groups of men and women who loitered on the streets. None of them seemed to care. ""We've always had competition. We're only in this business to make enough money to get by-"" 

""Pft, speak for yourself..."" 

""-And as long as our regulars don't feel the need to change suppliers,"" she continued, ""What does it matter to us?"" 

""That's the problem, Sydney, they do feel the need to change suppliers. You saw Twitch, he didn't want anything to do with us."" 

""That wasn't by choice."" 

Jackson mulled on her point for a moment, eventually concluding that she was correct. ""So, the Castalias,"" he began, ""They're planning on expanding to Russel City?"" Sydney nodded. ""Crazy. The Wings will be all over them.""

""Of course they will."" 

""And you think it was the Castalias who tipped off the Wings about our operation?"" 


""I think that's the only reasonable explanation. We're on good terms with the other suppliers. They all know that if one operation is shut down the Wings crack down on the rest. If the Castalias were the ones who tipped them off about our operation, I bet they've grassed on every operation in the city. Shit, Jackson, I wouldn't be surprised if some of them are dead..."" 

Jackson put an arm around Sydney, pulling her closer and allowing her head to rest against his chest as they walked. The sky above them was beginning to darken ever so slightly, and the breeze was beginning to cool. It was a relief when the unbearable heat of the day gave way to a slightly less maddening warmth, but regardless it was still an uncomfortable temperature. In such a confined space the stench of unwashed bodies was also thick and pungent, and only seemed to add to the humidity of the day. Jackson swore that this resulted in a slight opaque quality to the air, but Sydney was always quick to point out that nearly everyone who could afford one held a lit cigarette in their hand.

It wasn't until they turned a corner onto a slightly wider street that they were met with quiet murmurs of unrest. Both of them could sense tension in the area, and the further they proceeded to walk the more prominent the angst amongst the men and women around them became. Some were hurriedly making their way in the opposite direction to Jackson and Sydney, while some lingered unsure of where to go. The shouting in the distance caught them both off guard. <span class=""bb-i"">30 years, Russel City!</span> Instinctively the two of them glanced towards each other before taking of at a light jog, and judging by the sudden movement of the groups surrounding them they had not been the only ones to hear the shouting. Soon they found themselves amongst a steady flow of slum residents, all making their way to the source of the shouting. 

""You've got to be kidding..."" Sydney growled as the mass of bodies came to an abrupt stop.

Ahead of them Jackson could see the form of a man hung barbarically from a streetlight, his face slightly bloodied and his expression relaying confusion and terror. Below him stood a young woman. She was telling the assembled audience about crimes the man had committed, and despite being late to the party Jackson gleaned that he was something of a rapist. The woman’s words were harshly spoken, her whole demeanour ill-fitting of her soft features, pretty dress, and flowering hair. 

""That,"" Sydney whispered, ""is Lucania Castalia."" She folded her arms and narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the woman.

""Ah, the young lady whose family are stealing our business.""

""...Fucking entitled bitch..."" Was all Sydney offered in response.

An animalistic how erupted from the bound man's lungs as his eye was slashed. Despite their death chants the crowd retreated back a step to avoid the splatter of blood, and then continued to spur the young woman on. She lashed out again, this time at his torso, and more blood gushed from the wound, creating puddles of thick crimson on the uneven ground.

""I don't know, she doesn't seem so different from you when you've got a temper on."" Jackson said in a half-shout over the repetitive jeering of the crowd.

""Don't give me any ideas."" 

It took a while before the bloodbath came to an end. Lucania was carried away by a figure who Sydney could not identify, and the crowd fell like vultures upon the near-enough corpse of the Guardian - who Jackson believed had been named Adam Worth. He was unconscious now. It was a lucky escape. From what Jackson had heard of his crimes he thought the man deserved to endure suffering right up until his death. He would liked to have seen just how the slums residents decided to enact the Wing's murder, but Sydney pulled him away from the scene before he could satisfy his curiosity. She was moving at a brisk pace. A purposeful pace.

""Come on, we'll follow them, see what rich bitches get up to once they're done with their tantrums.""

Jackson agreed without argument, amused at the extreme dislike Sydney displayed towards a woman she had never met before.

***

Numerous wolf whistles fell on deaf ears as Sydney approached the bar at the Bitches Brew. Her scowls were hardly noticed by the intoxicated men whose bodies slouched limply in their chairs, let alone deterred them from admiring her slender physique as she perched on a stool and parted her lengthy brown hair. Jackson joined her, pulling up a stool and making his presence known. Angry mutters could be heard from a few men who quickly directed their perverse calls towards other patrons of the bar. Sydney then removed her jacket, catching the attention of a man to her right whose eyes landed promptly on her breasts, but following an <span class=""bb-i"">ahem</span> uttered by Jackson he too turned away. 

""You need to stop being such a sex symbol for these people,"" Jackson remarked, signalling for a round of drinks

""Tell me about it. You should see what things are like when you're not around."" 

""Worse?""

She laughed before saying, ""Of course.""

""That's why I worry about you."" 

""You don't need to worry about me."" She took a swig of the drink that had already been placed in front of her, testing it. After swirling it around in her mouth she swallowed and nodded her approval before downing the rest. ""It’s good."" 

""I just don't want anything to happen to you. Last time... I..."" 

""Let me see your eyes."" Sydney cut in, leaning towards him and taking his hands in her own. ""It's been weeks.""

She moved a hand towards the rim of his sunglasses, edging them down the bridge of his nose. Instinctively he moved a hand to stop her. He looked about the bar. No one seemed to be interested in what they were doing, and anyone who had been eyeing Sydney seemed to have lost interest. Reluctantly he allowed her to move his glasses just low enough that she could see his eyes, and a smile spread across her lips. Grey, wispy galaxies met her own comparatively dull eyes. The corneas of both eyes were grey, but not static as one would expect. They flowed and moved as if smoke were moving about behind the glazed surface, and specs of white seemed to sparkle as stars did in the night sky. But this isn't what she loved about them the most. What she loved the most was that the view of this strange galaxy inside his eyes was unobscured. There were no pupils to detract from their beauty. Only orb-shaped doors to another world. 

And then he blinked and pulled the glasses back in front of his eyes.

""Why don't you focus less on me, and more on Lucania. I can see her over there.""</div>"
135,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-21 01:30:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""red"">”Fucking! SON OF A BITCH!”</font> Alex screamed furiously, delivering a mighty kick to the front of the frail chair and sending it sliding across the room, balanced precariously on two legs. The result of her fury was a smashed chair and a woman moaning pitifully within its wreckage, mostly assuredly from the boot that had met her groin, propelling the seat she was tied to across the room.

A cloud of dusty rose up into the air, in a wavering mist-like fashion. Alex laughed sardonically, a memory from two months ago swelling up from the depths of her mind. The musty floorboards creaked as Alex moved across them, the volume of her anger apparent in every step. In fact, her rage seemed to literally manifest itself as swarms of tiny sparks scattering across her hair, like little electric dolphins. She stood over the woman, whimpering pathetically on the ground before her. To her, Alex must look terrifying, still fully dressed in her blood red coverings and tinted goggles.

<font color=""pink"">”P-please, I'm s-s-sorry!”</font> The woman wailed, tears streaming down her cheeks, cutting clean swathes through the otherwise dirt encrusted flesh. <font color=""pink"">”P-please No!”</font> She cringed, curling up into a ball as best she could, with her hands still tied behind her back.

Alex had taken a step closer, provoking the woman's plea. <font color=""red"">”I do not enjoy being made a fool of Cassie!”</font> Alex seethed, her body trembling with resistant as Alex stayed her hand, this woman could still be of use yet.

<font color=""pink"">”Please Alex, I'm so sorry! Please!”</font> Cassie plead, her terrified eyes searching for mercy, finding only the blackened glass of Alex's goggles. She squealed as Alex lifted her up by her dust colored shirt, that had probably been white once. She hung limply, most of her body resting on the floor still, with her tormentor close enough that Cassie could feel the hot breath on her face.

<font color=""red"">”There is only one purpose in my life Cass, do you even understand how much I paid you for that SHIT INFO?”</font> Alex yelled once more, throwing the woman back. The frail brick wall cracked as her head ricocheted off of it.

<font color=""pink"">”I'm Sorry! I-I'll pay you pack. I didn't know! It came from a reliable source!”</font>

This caught Alex's interest, <font color=""red"">”Who?”</font>
<font color=""pink"">”A-alex.. you know.. I can't tell you that. They'll kill me.”</font>
<font color=""red"">”I'll kill you,”</font> Alex threatened, taking a large breath as she paced to the other side of the room. For a moment regret filled her body, muddled with confusion. Why was she so angry? She got bad information all of the time, two years ago it wouldn't have come down to this, savage torture. She looked upon the form of Cass, huddled against the wall, in nothing but a shirt, worn shoes, and a pair of brown khakis cut short enough to reveal the smallest hint of her plump bottom.

<font color=""pink"">”Alex, please, show compassion.”</font> Cass pleaded again, <font color=""pink"">”Please, I know you. This isn't you!”</font> Alex turned away from her, tears welling up beneath her goggles. She felt the heavy pit of sadness growing in her middle, a weight of regret pressing heavily on her heart.

<font color=""red"">”Fuck..”</font> Alex started, running a hand through her hair, feeling the static built up in it, <font color=""red"">”Cassie.. I'm.. Fuck, I'm sorry. I don't know what's happening anymore.”</font>
<font color=""pink"">”I won't say it's okay.. but.. maybe we can find you some help?”</font>

Cassie stood tentatively, her legs shaking, a small trickle of blood curling around her neck from the back of her head, staining her shirt as it encroached between her ample cleavage. <font color=""pink"">”Whatever it is, I know someone who can help get you off it.</font>

Alex pushed up her goggles, revealing the pure white orbs of her eyes as she wiped them with the back of her hand, her gloves sitting off in one corner of the old, empty room. There were no windows, the room was a slowly decaying box of brick and mortar, with a lamp hung in the middle. <font color=""red"">”Off of it?”</font> Alex asked curiously, wondering what exactly Cass was accusing her of.

<font color=""pink"">”Yes, it's the smoke right? That hallucinogenic stuff Jackson cooks up?”</font>
<font color=""red"">”You think I'm on drugs Cassie?”</font> Alex questioned, her composure recovering slightly.  

<font color=""pink"">”What else could it be? I know at least two other people who get bouts of rage off that stuff.”</font> Cassie limped over to Alex, her groin still aching but her compassion winning over her fear as she placed a gentle hand on Alex's shoulder.

<font color=""red"">”Drugs?! For fuck's sake Cassie! You know me better than that!”</font> Alex half pleaded with her, <font color=""red"">”I don't even smoke the normal stuff!”</font>
<font color=""pink"">”But.. Alex..”</font> Cassie started, placing her other hand on Alex's opposite shoulder and squeezing lightly, <font color=""pink"">”You know I've never judged you.. you've always been a good girl to me.”</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Good girl..</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">...good girl..</span>

Alex shuddered, squeezing her eyes shut. <font color=""red"">”There's something wrong Cassie, I'm not in control of my own life.”</font>
<font color=""pink"">”I won't leave you Alex, we can fix you, there's got to be somebody who can help.”</font> Cassie embraced Alex gently, hugging her. Forgiveness wrapping itself around her, convinced that it wasn't Alex's fault. It was her condition, her sickness.

<font color=""pink"">”We can fix you.”</font>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”We can fix you,”</font></span> A rough, female voice said through the darkness, as Alex huddled naked on the floor, illuminated by the only source of light in the cold concrete room,<font color=""orange"">“You may not be much now, but we can fix you,”</font> The voice laughed, a cloud of smoke drifting across Alex's bare flesh, dampening her senses and making her feel warm and frightened at the same time.

<font color=""pink"">”We can fix you, I promise.”</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”We can fix you, I promise”</font> The voice laughed.</div>
<font color=""pink"">”That's a good girl Alex... just breath.”</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”That's a good girl Alexia... just breathe.”</font></div>
<font color=""pink"">”Alex?”</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”Alexia?”</font></div>
<font color=""pink"">”Alex? Answer me. Alex?</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”Answer me Alexia!”</font></div>

Alex flinched, expecting the lash of the cane against her body. Her breath caught and her teeth clenched, but the pain never came. She blinked, looking around her.

<font color=""pink"">”Alex? What's wrong?”</font> Cass asked, concerned. 

Alex shuddered, chills running through her spine. She fell to her knees, grasping her head in both hands, <font color=""red"">”No... no.. no,no,no!”</font> She whimpered, this time she felt it, physically felt it moving through her body. She tried to stop it, to force it down, to ignore it. She opened her mouth, she wanted Cass to run, to leave her here. <font color=""pink"">”Alex it's alright! We're going to make it through this.. together!”</font>

Alex hated them. She hated them so much for what they did to her. She was no longer in control of her life, she didn't know how to be. She needed control. No, she needed to be controlled. No, she was free now, free of them, free of that hell. No! It always plagued her, followed her, tormented her. And how she hated them, how they caused rage to boil in her blood, and her heart to beat with wrath.

<span class=""bb-i"">Thump... Thump...</span> Her heart beat.
<font color=""pink"">”Alex?”</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”Alexia.”</font></div>
<font color=""orange"">”Alexia?”</font>

Alex looked up, her hands falling to her lap, <font color=""red"">”What did you call me?”</font>

Cassie knelt next to her, embracing her, <font color=""orange"">”Alexia.”</font> The voice said, drowning out Cass. No, it was Cass, the voice, wasn't it? She was one of them, one of the demons from her past. She hadn't killed them at! She had missed one, and now she was here, to seduce her back into the maw of hell!

<font color=""red"">”Get off of me!”</font> Alex seethed, shrugging away from Cassie.

<font color=""pink"">”Alex! Please! I'm only trying to help you!”</font>
<div class=""bb-indent""><font color=""orange"">”Alexia. We're only trying to help you.”</font></div>
<font color=""red"">”I said NO! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!”</font> Alex screeched, electricity violently erupting from her. Cass screamed, falling back and scrambling away from the explosive torrents of energy quickly, until her back was pressed once more to the wall her head had been cracked on earlier.

<font color=""pink"">”ALEX! PLEASE! YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS!”</font> She screamed, straining to be heard over the cacophony of destruction happening around her.

The room shook, debris falling from the ceiling in clouds of dust. At this rate the room was going to collapse. A chunk of brick dislodged itself from the ceiling, landing a few inches from Cassie's leg.
<font color=""pink"">”ALEX STOP!”</font>

Something swirled through Alex's mind. Like a tornado of wrath clouding her senses. Her vision wavered, and a wave of nausea wracked her body as she tried to stand, making her fall to her knees again. Her vision blurred, darkening, as if the light in the room was slowly dimming. There was a voice screaming in the distance, but it was of no matter.

There was only the pain. The immense pain flowing their her body, like live embers crawling beneath her skin. Her heart pumped desperately in her chest as the electric flow around Alex reversed itself. Dramatically the expulsion of energy stopped, ceasing all together for just a moment. A whirring buzz filled the room. A terrified Cass watched as the light bulb exploded from its place in the haphazardly swinging lamp. But the room quickly lit up anyways as Alex pulled the surrounding energies into herself. Cassie could her the faint sounds of light bulbs popping in other rooms, barely audible.

The tide of energy swirled around Alex, diving into her body as it erupted from the cables running through the floors and walls. Tendrils of blue energy snaking out from power sockets and light fixtures.   Outside the late evening streetlights erupted with the surge of energy being pulled through the conduits that fed them. The whole block wavered, the tell-tale sounds of buzzing and flickering lights indicating an abnormal flow of energy.

<font color=""pink"">”ALEX! WHAT'S HAPPENING!?”</font>

Alex couldn't speak, she was rendered speechless inside her own vortex of energy, gathering inside her until she felt as if she would burst. That's exactly what it felt like, as if she were about to explode from the inside out. She didn't understand what was happening, it was as if she wasn't in control of herself. As if something were trying to tear it away from her.

She screamed. Her voice carried the weight of the world off of her shoulders. She stood slowly, the weight of the gathering energies threatening to push her back down. She screamed again and lightning erupted from her hands, blasting chunks of concrete from the floor. For a moment she felt the tiny bit of relief that releasing energy brought. She could fight this, she could stabilize and bring herself back under control.

She screamed again, her raw emotion snatching back control of herself. This time the cyclone of electricity stopped all together, the whole block falling into the dead black of a power outage. She had siphoned this block dry, it was all gathered inside her, ready to tear her apart, to consume her. Her heart smashed a painful chorus in her chest. The pain of it adding to the raw, primal control she had seized. 

Cassie opened her mouth tentatively once more, her body trembling, <font color=""pink"">”Alex..?”</font>

And then the whole world seemed to erupt around her. Cassie felt the wave of roiling energy burn its way across her body, faster than she could scream. Her body fell limply towards the earth as the wave of energy swept through the building, blowing out already weakened walls. The wave stopped, a circle of roiling energy backtracking violently towards the conduit it had come from.

The wave smashed into Alex's body, causing her to stumble. Though she did not fall, through no power of her own, held up only by the sheer velocity of the column of power violently dispersing from her body into the darkening sky. The late evening's veil of gathering darkness pierced only by the soft glow of the city, and the beam of electric energy shooting through the clouds. It lasted only one, violent moment as Alex regained control of herself. Her breath came in ragged gasps as she fell to the floor. It was amazing that there was even a floor to fall to.

Cassie was gone, thrown out of the now shattered brick wall into the gloomy streets below. <font color=""red"">”So much for love,”</font> Alex wheezed, crawling her way to the door, which was gone. The frame still stood, barely, and Alex used it to lift herself onto her unsteady feet. Sweat dripped off her forehead as she did so, and her heart beat with a force the wracked her chest with pain. For a moment it seemed to stop, an icy chill gathering itself around her body. She panicked, searching for some form of electricity, grabbing onto a faint, distant pulse of power.

A quick blue flash arrived, leaping into her body, restarting her heart beneath the hand clutching at her chest. A brief wave of dizziness mixture with another of nausea passed through her was the warmth returned to her body. She slowly made her way to exit the building, before any undesirables arrived. She stumbled down the cracked, dark hallways, with their columns of dust still hanging in the air. She felt sick, like she was about to throw up.

By the time she reached the exit, she did. Twice. The sight of Cassie's blackened body brought on a third bout of vomiting. Alex turned away remorsefully, sadness pulling at her heart. She would miss Cassie, dearly, but she didn't have time to dwell on what she'd done. She had to get out of here.</div>"
136,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-21 17:34:00,Firecracker_,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Considering his current rifle was a poorly built and maintained piece of scrap, Ulver was particularly thankful that the Peacekeepers of Aspin had loaned him a long range rifle with a scope. Ulver was sat on top of the tallest building in the residential district. Around him were 3 other spotter teams of Peacekeepers, each watching their own directions, shifting side to side. The effort to catch the bandit, who the public had nicknamed ‘The Red Robber’, was very apparent, with the streets nearly empty, with a small amount of people quickly walking through the streets, careful not to look too long at the squad of snipers on the building. From the streets, the snipers were nearly invisible, if not for the minor glow of their night vision scope shining on their faces, but even those with cat eyes would find that near impossible to see. They remained mostly still, the spotters and snipers holding their own personal conversations in whispers, occasionally calling positions of suspicious looking people to their partners and then squadmates.

Ulver watched silently on his appointed section of town, which was where a majority of the crimes had happened. Those streets were especially dead, with not a single desert soul out and about. All the inhabitants were nestled in their houses, sheltered from the bitter cold of desert nights, and the possible armed bandit roaming streets. Ulver and his spotter didn’t speak much, as the spotter was particularly nervous around the Immortal. When they were coming up to the roof, the young spotter, named Jonze, flinched at nearly every sudden move Ulver made, and looked particularly horrified when the Quartermaster handed Ulver a sniper rifle. He didn’t hold it against the young man, though. He’d probably be terrified, were he in the spotter’s shoes.

With one foot on top of his helmet and his rifle in arms, Ulver stared out at the empty streets through his scope, his old AK set on the wall beside him. Jonze, standing a distance farther than the most of the teams were away from Ulver, was watching and scanning just as intently, suspicious of any waking movement or shifting shadow. The street lights across the city gave everything a dull yellow glow showering every street corner, with the spaces between almost pitch black where the light didn't reach.

“Hey, Jonz-” 

The spotter jumped at the mere sound of Ulver talking “Wh-what?” He spouted out, half irritated, half terrified. 

“Just keep your eyes peeled for a second, gotta get something out of my bag.” Ulver said, trying his hardest not to laugh.

“Yeah, yeah, got ya.” Jonze said, staring back out at the city.

Ulver smirked at Jonze when he turned back around, and proceeded to set his rifle against the knee-high wall in front of him. He slid his backpack off, and unzipped it, extracting the beauty of a tequila bottle that he had acquired earlier, setting it on the wall and putting his backpack back on.

The young spotter heard the tink of the bottle hitting the brick, and turned, amazed by what he saw.

“Uh. I don’t think you should be drinking on a job like this, dude.”

“Look, without me, there wouldn’t be much of a job to do, considering no one before me could get it done. I’ll do the fuck I want.” He said, a dead pan face solidifying his point.

Jonze swallowed and didn’t respond, simply nodding in agreement and turning around. Ulver broke into a chuckle, before being hushed and told to shut the fuck up by the other teams. He kept his smile and bumped Jonze on the shoulder, another action that made the spotter jump in fright. He motioned the bottle toward him, and smiled. “Take sip, kid. You need it.”

Hesitating at first, Jonze ended up taking the bottle, and took a deep swig, before handing it back. Ulver pat Jonze on the back, before taking a suitable swing for himself, and setting the bottle on the wall, picking his rifle back up.

Ulver peered back through his scope, scanning the dark streets again. Jonze perked up, his voice a complete opposite as before.

“We got a fast mover, right of the general store, moving leftwards.”

Ulver quickly lowered his rifle, found the general store, and brought his rifle back up, taking a moment, before finding the man that Jonze alerted them to. He was of a medium height, but that’s all Ulver could tell, as the man was covered nearly head to toe in a large dark trenchcoat, hat and facial mask. (Similar to <a href=""http://images-eds.xboxlive.com/image?url=8Oaj9Ryq1G1_p3lLnXlsaZgGzAie6Mnu24_PawYuDYIoH77pJ.X5Z.MqQPibUVTc8Il.WsbxsDD8uSnaysdiKZCXH2r9Qpiy16EPomN0bT5yUxEMgSjFnxoqFE06mNzPyrSul_u4axz9HOOLAscVGSjpV4Zjl_6QAirknAZ2A_KyJv6t2JZjqoJJfhCb1frVJipA_MWuIkfSKV10QSOyBBwbpDdoS.UqrkqOcjuvGcs-&amp;format=jpg"">this</a>

The man moved almost alarmingly fast, as if he were sprinting down the street. Even in the windless night, the tail of his trenchcoat flared and fluttered as the man sped down the street.

“Whoa, holy shit, we got another fast one.” Jonze said. “In front of the first, down the street. Mohawk.”

Ulver quickly jerked his rifle to the left, seeing the other man moving towards the first. This man wasn’t as heavily dressed, even underdressed in a sleeveless shirt. He had a large mohawk jutting from his head, something rare nowadays, with hair gel being scarce. The two men finally met, with the man in the trench coat passing something off with lightening speed to the mohawked man. A molotov cocktail.

“Ho-ly shit. Mohawk’s got a molotov. Get the fucking teams out now, tell them to catch trenchcoat.” Ulver said. The team captain responded by grabbing his radio, and harshly whispering. “Alpha and Charlie teams, we have a contact, red trench coat, medium height, hat and mask, moving north on Pinter street. He’s moving fast, catch and detain him. Take him alive for questioning. “

The men began to move out of the bulding below the sniper teams, their flashlights illuminating the streets in front of them. Ulver’s scope was focused on mohawk, as his paced had slowed, as if he was nearing his objective. Finally, he made his move. He walked up to the storefront, and pulled his arm back, taking a whopping punch at the front glass, shaterring it in a single blow, and he moved in.

“Fuck, Mohawk just broke into the store. Do the owners live in there?” Ulver saked Jonze.

“Shit, yeah they do.” He said, scared. “Wait, did you say he broke into the store? That’s fucking plate glass, holy shit. You need to get down there, dude.”

“Right.” Ulver said, switching his rifle for this AK, and rushing to the elevator that led to the ground floor. Before the door on the elvator closed, he looked at the sniper teams. 


“Keep me posted, and keep me covered.” He said, nodding once, flipping the safety on his rifle off. The men nodded at him, and then the elevator doors shut.

---

Ulver sprinted up up to the corner of a brick wall. Right around the corner, was the store front that was currently being ravaged. A few Peacekeepers fell in behind Ulver in a tactical fashion, and waited for his lead. Soon, he was off the corner, approaching the store front, his rifle fixed on the hole in the glass. A few cautious steps forward, and into the glass hole, mohawk was in Ulver’s iron sights, the entire storefront lit by the flashlights behind him..

“<span class=""bb-b"">FREEZE, SHITBIRD!</span>” Ulver shouted, the Peacekeepers taking positions behind him. Mohawk was positioned behind the front counter tearing through the register. His gaze slowly found its way up, facing the men.”[b]GET ON THE FUCKING GROUND![b]” A Peacekeeper shouted, getting closer, alongside Ulver.

Mohawk simply stared at the men, a crazed look filling his purple eyes. Ulver’s train of thought was completely derailed the moment he saw mohawk’s eyes. This was no mere bandit. This was an Immortal.

His hand shot up, his fist clenching, as bottles flew from one side of the room into the other, slamming into Ulver’s right side, shattering loudly, glass showering the men. A few shards found their way and burrowed into Ulver’s arms and face, sending him down to the ground on his left side. A man behind him scremed in pain, and rolled around the ground, as the two Peacekeepers behind them began to open fire. The Immortal pulled his fist up, and thousands of shards of glass from all over came and formed a makeshift shield in front of him. Bullets tinged and flinged off, bouncing off the floor and walls, no longer lethal. Ulver couldn’t do much but hide his face, and try to crawl behind a shelf to find shelter from the storm of bullets and glass shards.

“<span class=""bb-b"">YOU CAN’T HIDE SANDMAN!</span>” Mohawk screamed in a shrill, insane voice. A glass shard flew through the shelf, striking Ulver in the back of his shoulder. Ulver responded with a loud bellow of pain, pitching forward onto his stomach, trying to crawl away from the storm of glass shards soaring through the weak wooden shelves.

Ulver rolled over what little he could, pointed his rifle at the shelves, and began emptying his entire magazine into the shelves and room behind it. He could hear the Immortal shriek in pain, a loud thump. It was then that the two peacekeepers had been incapacitated for the time being, crawling away from the store front, while the third laid dead on the ground near where Ulver had stood mere seconds before.

It was suddenly silent, and Ulver could hear shuffling in the direction of the register. He tossed his rilfe aside, and slowly but surely pulled out Roger from his sheathe, cocking it with his left hand, then tossing it up and cathing the handle in the same hand. He found his shaky way up to his feet, and began limping towards the register. With each step he dragged forward, the crawling Immortal  came more and more into view. His knee and chest had both been shot a few times, leaving him rather immobilized. Ulver sighed, and slowly shuffled around the counter, towards mohawk.

The two injured men carried on their injured pace, a stripe of crimson on the floor to mark the path they took. One shuffled on his sore and painful legs, with shards of jagged glass jutting from his body in numerous places. The other dragged his way across a dirty and trash covered floor, using his one good leg to push himself a few feet at a time. Ulver finally caught up to the escaping bandit, pressing a boot down firmly on his wounded knee. A pained groan rose out of the man, and he squirmed and struggled to escape Ulver’s grasp.

“Wh-what the fuck do you want from me?!?” Mohawk cried, in great pain.

“Who do you work for?” Ulver said, his finger sliding along Roger’s cold, metal trigger guard.

“I don’t work for fucking anybody man, just let me go!” Mohawk pleaded.

“Bullshit, no regular bandit would attack a capital city like this. I know you fucking savages, I was one of you.” Ulver said, his rough voice growing impatient.

“No, no, man,  I swear, I don’t have anything to do those guys! I’m just trying to stay alive!”

“Starving bandits don’t usually murder the people they rob, asshole, don’t you bullshit me.” He ground his boot deeper into the bandits wound, a yell of pain escpaing the bandit’s mouth.

The bandit panted in pain.”Alright! Alright! I’m fucking Forsaken! Oh fuck, they’re going to fucking kill me, man, c’mon just kill me. They’re not going to make it easy on me.”

“No, no, no, you don’t get out that easy, asshole. What do they want in Apsin?”

“I don’t fucking know man! Th-they just got a bunch of us, Immortals like you and I. They were giving everyone assignements, and they told me to come and just wreak havoc here in Aspin. Asides from that, I- I don’t know anything else.”

“Are you telling me The Forsaken Order has a group of Immortals under their command?” Ulver said, quieter now, stunned.

“I- I don’t know, it seemed like some petty shit to me, but I know they had a few. Past the orders they gave me, I- I don’t know anything else! Please, kill me!” The bandit pleaded, beginning to sob.

Ulver stared at the back of the man’s head, mostly in disbelief. <span class=""bb-i"">What kinda crazy shit could the Forsaken be doing with a group of Immortals? That can’t mean anything other than bad for the rest of us.</span>

“Come on, let’s get you to a hospital, asshole.” Ulver saidm beginning to pull the man off the ground.

“<span class=""bb-b"">NO!</span>” The man screeched, his arms flexing and his fist clenching. 

Ulver heard something move in the room behind him, but before he could react, a few small glass shards stabbed him in the back. Ulver dropped the man, and stumbled to the side in pain. The bandit was able to hop up on one leg, and started trying to limp out of the back door, falling along the way. Ulver rushed forward, shotgun in hands, and shot the bandit. A shower of crimon flew as blood spewed from the gaping wound in the man’s soulder. The red paint was accompanied with a scream, and other shot, disabling his other arm. Ulver ran over and delivered a sharp kick to the bandit’s chest, a final blow landing on the bandit’s face, finally tipping him off the cliff of consciousness into the abyss of a comatose unconciousness. 

Another team of Peacekeepers rushed in securing the scene, rushing away the nearly dead bandit, with a few carrying off the body of their fallen comrade. Most ignored Ulver completely, until walked out and grabbed a paramedic by the collar and made a convincing enough death threat to receive medical attention. As he sat, the medics pulling glass fragments out of his cheek, he chuckled. 

“Shoulda worn my fucking helmet.”</div>"

Sweat beaded and rolled down her face and body in torrents. She carefully manipulated the controls, watching as the vessel of steel made its way to the furnace for melting. She adjusted another control, watching as the lid of the blast furnace lifted up, exposing the glowing metal within. 

The white hot glow of the molten steel dimmed everything else in the factory, she squinted at the controls, trying to make out which was which.  Looking up, she saw that the container of unmelted steel was in position, and tugged the release lever.

To her horror, any splashing that might have occured was obscured by a giant cloud steam, only barely visible in the extreme light. 

“Get back!” She screamed fruitlessly at the other workers, inaudible over the hiss of steam and roar of the furnace. She found the small necklace around her neck and clutched it tight, running as fast as her legs could ca-

The furnace exploded with a deafening blast, molten steel erupting as the platform she’d been on only seconds ago was engulfed in angry flurries of metal. Globs of steel flew from the furnace and buried two people, she couldn’t see their faces, but she knew they were screaming. She glanced back in terror as the furnace erupted again, belching out more globs of molten met- 

She screamed shrilly as she fell writhing to the ground covered in steel. The suit was no use, it burned straight through, vaporizing chunks of her body as it blasted off of every exposed inch of her in explsions of steam and glowi-</span>

Vladimira gasped as her eyes shot open revealing no molten metal, no exploding furnaces, no screams.

Just sand.

She wasn’t dead. Wasn’t dying covered in molten metal. 

The harsh noon day sun beat down from on high as she pushed aside the flap of the small tent. Ideally she’d have slept until it began to darken and she could travel with the cool air of the night instead of the scorching kiln that was Dust at midday. 

She grumbled as she crawled back into the tent, it was much nicer inside it, shaded by a small hillock as it was.

She dragged her rucksack and rifle out, resigned to the fact that she wouldn’t be getting any more sleep for a while. “Getting more frequent.” She sighed to herself, folding up the tent. 

It was probably a good thing she’d woken when she did anyway. There were always Forsaken or bandits who would welcome the chance to rob her blind or try enslaving her while she slept. 

Which would have turned out poorly for them regardless. 
______________________________________

Vladimira was scrounging around in an old car she’d glimpsed in the distance, stripping it of anything useful, including some parts of the steel chassis that appeared to have more or less escaped rust. There wasn’t much in there, some old 9mm rounds next to what had probably been a handgun at some poin next to the hand of the skeleton splayed haphazardly in the front seat, a single spent casing lying on the floor. There were some things of at least marginal use; some copper wiring, the aforementioned 9mm bullets for use as money, and… a lot of canned food. 

She pulled herself out of the car, examining the cans she’d found in a plastic lined bag. Ham, corn, rice, bread, all in all there were maybe ten cans of varying sizes. She wondered if their contents were even remotely edible… they probably weren’t, maybe she’d trade them for something more useful, she had some food already. The copper wiring might be useful for someone doing electrical work or something, it wasn’t her area of expertise.

The scrap metal of the car though, that definitely pleased her. <span class=""bb-i"">Good quality old world stuff too.</span> She examined a chunk of it in her hands, near as she could tell, it was a high carbon alloy. Definitely much nicer than the scrap she usually fou-

Clods of dirt kicked up next to her as short bursts of staccato gunfire sounded from nearby. She glanced around wildly, looking for a direction. More gunfire from what seemed a cluster of boulders near a small hill convinced her to shelter behind the engine block of the old car. She pulled Comrade over her head, disengaging the safety. 

Sliding to a stop behind the chassis, she peeked out from behind it to get a better look at the hill and its cluster of boulders. The sun was too bright to see any muzzle flash, but she could see who was shooting at her just fine. She might not have been close enough to get a nice up close view of the whites of their eyes, but she could easily tell they were Forsaken. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Fucking tribal raiders.</span>

Several shots hit the car, forcing her to duck down as one buried itself in the engine block uncomfortably close to her face. Risking a glance back up, she noticed a couple of them appeared to be running towards her, though she couldn’t see what they carried on them.

She hefted Comrade, propping the rifle up on the car. There were three Forsaken running at her, and two more still shooting at her. 

Just as she was about to put a bullet in one of them a sudden pain hit her in the back, stunning her momentarily. She whirled around once her head had cleared, barely catching another punch from a sixth Forsaken on the armored bit of her glove. <span class=""bb-i"">Eyes blank and unseeing, gentle rivulets of blood flowing down a spike of steel.</span>

Two belt pouches flew open, their contents floating out and hovering between her and the Forsaken. The scrap metal clumped together in a jagged spike of steel as she clenched a fist. Gripping the Forsaken’s arm, she twisted it sharply and brought her knee to his gut, a sardonic smirk on her face as she heard his elbow crack. Flipping him into the door of the car she drove the spike of steel into his neck, pinning him there like a macabre wall ornament. 

Another Forsaken ran at her screaming and swinging an old rusted axe. <span class=""bb-i"">Bloodied steel. One outstreched hand spasming limply. A crimson puddle slowly leaking out…</span>Ducking his wild swings, she rolled over the hood now pockmarked with bullet holes. She gripped the hood of the car and ripped it off, sending it flying at him. 

The piece of steel wrapped around the Forsaken as she opened her hand, and crushed him to a bloody pulp as she clenched it. She grinned maliciously at the crunch of bones and the lumpy red stream pouring from the hole in the bottom. 

She twirled the bloody steel burrito in the air with grim amusement before letting it fall to the ground. Pulling her Tokarevs she faced the next Forsaken, screaming at the top of her lungs as she charged with an old piece of pipe. <span class=""bb-i"">Slumped against a rock, spasming gently. Brilliant red blood slowly oozing into the sand from the bullet holes in her chest.</span> Vladimira pulled the triggers, blasting bits of lead and copper into the charging Forsaken, driving her boot into the face of the woman as she fell in front of her.

A white hot spike of pain shot from her leg as the last Forsaken to run at her from the hill sank his knife into her thigh. Throwing her body weight on him, she tore his hand off the knife and pulled it out of her leg. He kicked her in the gut, winding her as he pushed her off. Pulling another knife from his belt, his eyes widened in shock as both that knife and the one he’d lost shot towards him, burying themselves in his chest. 

Vladimira breathed a sigh of relief, cut short as more rounds impacted the sand near her. She scrambled for the cover of the car’s engine block, grabbing her pistols as she did so. 

Comrade was still there, and now there wasn’t anything to contend with in a melee. She hefted the rifle, laying it on the engine as she took aim at the two Forsaken shooting at her. One of them looked to be in the middle of reloading, and the other seemed to be fumbling with a bolt. 

Lining up her sights with the reloding Forsaken, she squeezed the trigger, grinning as the figure crumpled. A bullet impacted close to her hand and she pulled back again, racking the bolt. 

She popped back up over the car, firing off a shot at the Forsaken and ducking back down again. Peeping over the top, she saw the sillouhette aiming in her direction and crouched back down. She crawled over to the other side of the car and leaned out, holding her breath as she gently squeezed the trigger. 

She didn’t check to see if the shot hit but dipped below the top of the car once more. 
____________________________

The sun was beginning to set as Vladimira trudged across the desert, occasionally checking her compass to keep her bearings. The Forsaken hadn’t had much of worth on them, some dirty .45 ammunition and rifles that looked like they’d been scrapped together from pipes and rotten wood. Still, steel pipes she could use.

She’d left the bodies of the Forsaken where they’d fallen, though she had taken the spike she’d used to kill the first one. Comrade was slung over her shoulder, she’d need to clean the rifle before she went to sleep tonight, pistols too. 

She reached up and turned on her headlamp, glancing around at the darkening landscape. The lights of Russel City stood out against the desert, only a few hours to go before she could sell off her salvage.

The Wings had seemed distracted when she passed through the gate, only throwing the barest of security checks at her. They hadn’t even asked her to remove her mask. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Wonder what’s happened?</span> Walking through the slums of Russel City, she noticed the people on the street had a different air than last time she’d been here. <span class=""bb-i"">Something’s definitely happened.</span> 

She crept across the streets, keeping a hand on one of her guns. The street up ahead was strangely empty except for a mishapen lump in the streetlight. What looked like a torn piece of rope hung forlornly from the same light. 

She neared the lump, an eyebrow raising as she came across a mutilated body, barely recognizable as such were it not for the skin and general shape. Her eyes fell on a portion of the lump of meat that was missing… Vladimira looked up and glanced about, then back down at the body. 

What the hell had happened here?</div>"
138,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-01 18:56:00,Callthecops,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Bento stood on the roof of a two story combined general store and apartment located across the street from the Bitches Brew club. He rather liked roofs. They gave you a good sense of the surrounding area, and let you scope out potential exits and escape routes. They also let someone like him make exceptionally good time, jumping and running across rooftops with ease. But the best part was that despite the various dangers of the Dust, and especially a city like this one, nobody ever thinks to look up… By this time however, tactics were the last thing on Bento’s mind. His flask was nearly empty, and though the opiates were nearly out of his system by now, the combination had left him a little looser than he probably should have been, walking into a den of thieves. Then again, he was also too loose to stop himself either.

He quickly drew his revolver and checked to make sure everything was working properly, an old habit from his days as a scout. When he was finished, the Immortal dropped down into an empty alley, softening his fall with a quick gust of wind. As he walked out into the street, Bento put his gun back in its holster and straightened up his vest and shirt as he made his way towards the door. 

Stepping in from the harsh streets of Russell City, Bento nearly lost his cool, coming to a full stop just inside the door. As he looked around, the club felt like it was from another world, the floors literally paved with gold. He was nearly swept away for a moment before catching himself, realizing what the club really was. The club wasn’t selling food and liquor or drugs and whores; the club was selling hope. It sold the illusion of luxury, a word most believed had been lost in the fires that had ravaged the earth long ago. The decorations were designed to make you forget the fact that you were paying for piss with a handful of bullets. He doubted a girl like Lucania understood the lie, having had it sold to her since the day she was born, but Leoluca… He had been in the city long enough to see the truth. Bento waved down the bartender and found a small table in the corner, where he was provided with his very own glass of piss. He tossed the drink back in one go and paid for two. If they were selling the dreams of another world, the Immortal would swallow them gladly. The Lord only knew, he hadn’t slept in a long, long time…

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div>

""<span class=""bb-b"">Shots!</span>"" A shrill voice yelled, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Three of 'em! Move your ass!</span>"" She slammed her hands against the table to make a point.

""Miss Castalia..."" replied a sobering voice from a bar jerk, ""Are you sure that's the--""

""<span class=""bb-b"">Ohhh...</span>"" Lucy stood from her seat, barely maintaining her balance, ""<span class=""bb-b"">OHHH!</span> Are you denying me service, <span class=""bb-i"">fica</span>!?"" She  pointed a lazy finger at the worker, ""<span class=""bb-b"">You</span> work for <span class=""bb-b"">me</span>, if you fuckin' forgot! Or what?"" she slurred, ""Do you want me to stop my sis's make-out sesh to tell her you didn't get me a fuckin' drink?"" 

In an instant, the waitresses was gone, preparing drinks for her life. As Lucy sunk back into her seat, giggles came from across the table.

""What the fuck are you laughing at, Diane?""

""Just..."" She snorted, blowing out the cannabis smoke, ""Ah mean, she's right. Maybe ya should slow down.""

""Fuck all that!"" Lucy removed a vial of a white powdery substance from her purse, ""Tonight we fuckin' <span class=""bb-i"">party</span>!""

Diane tilted her head, stifling her laughter she managed to ask, ""What's that?""

""Gaen <span class=""bb-i"">fuckin'</span> blow! The best of the best..."" She eyed the vial, before looking over to Diane, a mischievous gleam in her eyes, ""...And you're gonna do it with me!""

Diane shrugged in between her giggles, ""Nah.""

""And why not, bitch?"" Lucy pouted, ""You've already smoked enough green to put down a desert-beast...""

Diane coughed, ""Weed ain't a drug."" She extinguished the roach in an ashtray, immediately after lighting up another blunt, ""'Sides, Ah gotta least pretend like Ahm a responsible adult here...""

""Ugh!"" Lucy exaggerated her sigh, ""Well I'm not doing it all alone this time..."" She scanned the room, looking for potential partners, her eyes erratically shifting from table to table, her body was already shivering from the various chemicals she'd already forced into her body, ""Hey you!"" She had found her match. A rugged, long haired man sat alone a few tables away, he looked like he could use a stimulant. 

""<span class=""bb-b"">Hey!</span>"" Lucy practically ran through the room to the table, with a red-eyed Diane following slowly behind, ""Hey--"" She came to a stop, addressing the windswept man, ""It's your lucky day stranger! I have <span class=""bb-i"">waaaaaaaay</span> too much for just one person,"" Lucy dangled the vial of white between them, ""Wanna get high?""

Staring into the bottom of his glass, Bento examined the golden liquid, studying it intensely as if attempting to learn its secrets. His concentration was so completely focused on watching the refractions caused by the drink he failed to catch the scene going on at the bar. All that mattered was peering through the distorted image and learning the true nature of the glass. If only God’s illusions were as easy to decipher as those of mere men. The exercise was pointless, of course. Picking up the glass, Bento swirled the sweet nectar with an easy motion of the wrist before taking another sip. Warmth filled his body as he started to notice his movements becoming looser, a sense of ease washing over him. He could feel his muscles finally relaxing as the tension of a life lived hard slowly began to recede, even if just for a time.

Suddenly he heard a voice calling out, and saw for the first time the beautiful woman-or girl rather-nearly charging him from the other side of the room. Reflex took over as his hand dropped to his thigh with practiced ease, the gun cocked and halfway out of its holster before he could even register she was unarmed. By the time she had reached the table Bento let out a sigh of relief as he eased the hammer back down and let the gun rest in its holster once more. Though the rapid hit of adrenaline was still fighting back the effects of the booze, the Immortal remained characteristically unshaken. 

<font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Do I want to get high?”</span></font> He repeated, half stalling and half seriously asking himself. Who was this girl? Was she a whore? No, the dress was far too nice. For the same reason he doubted she was trying to steal his stuff, after all, she looked like she had enough money to feed the whole slum district. Besides, from the looks of things he had at least 7-8 inches on her, and probably about 100 pounds. He was confident that he could handle whatever she threw at him. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Sure... Maybe I’ll even show you how to fly...”</span></font>

He agreed! Lucy's face lit up like a dog being given a treat. She almost didn't know how to respond to someone actually agreeing to a thing--<span class=""bb-i"">anything</span> she had said. Her psyche was one entirely accustomed to being shot down. She turned to Diane, an expectant child to a helpless mother; Diane gave a dazed-shrug, looking around herself, completely unsure of what protocol she was supposed to be taking in this situation. 

Lucy's nights out were both legendary and too numerous to count, typically; they consisted of heavy substance abuse, Lucy's fruitless search for companionship, more substance abuse, and usually ended in a fight. Unless it ever got heated to the point of shots being fired, Lucy was typically more than capable of taking care of herself. But still, each night, she was assigned a protector by her sister. Although they were always instructed step in to take a bullet if the situation ever called for it. The situation never did. It never would. Lucy's 'protectors' were nothing more than reminders. A misguided message from an overprotective sister to those who would try to harm her little sister Lucina. The message?

Something like; <span class=""bb-i"">'The Don's bloody sleeved enforcer is watching.'</span>

Lucy took a seat across from the man, still beaming like an idiot. <span class=""bb-i"">New city, new rules, apparently.</span> People here didn't fear Lucia like they did in Serenity-- for Lucy, this was something of a new start, and an absolute first. She actually felt a bit nervous. 

Luckily for them all, the waitress managed to find their table with the windswept stranger as Diane slouched into another seat at the table.

""Show me how to fly, huh?"" She downed a shot, ""Like-- volare? I'd like to see that, old timer"" She swallowed the two remaining shots, spilling a good bit of them. She found it easy to ignore the pain, the taste, and just focus on the warmth that seemed to spread in her body because of them. Slamming down the last glass on the table, she squinted to get a better view of the man across the table from her, ""Whoa!"" She slurred, ""You're like, one of those Immortal guys! Like Lucia, right?""

Bento raised an amused eyebrow as the girl looked back at the woman who was obviously her keeper, as if asking for permission. The older woman acquiesced with a simple shrug of the shoulders. That was a new one… Bento knew there was something he was still missing, but in his inebriated state he struggled to connect the various oddities. As the girl sat down across the table he couldn’t help but notice the strange combination of excitement and unfamiliarity that she wore across her face. In that moment she looked not unlike a puppy being shown a new environment. Bento only hoped that she wouldn’t piss herself, either figuratively or-God forbid-literally.

It was hard to imagine why, watching the girl throwing back three shots in quick succession, carrying a vial fully of cocaine, but all the old Immortal could see was innocence, bleeding from her eyes. She wasn’t like the other patrons of the bar, broken souls burying themselves in vice, cowering in fear of a harsh, brutal world. She was naïve, lost and alone in the empty space between the world she understood, and the world she inhabited. Much- “Like Lucia, right?”

<span class=""bb-i"">Dear God. She’s a Castalia…</span> Inside, the realization hit him hard, like a punch to the face; his expression however, remained unchanged. What had he gotten himself into, he wondered? It was too late now, he would have to make the best of the situation. Besides, for the first time in a long time he actually pitied the poor girl. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Yes, very much like your sister, Lucia. But I would be careful who you talk about Immortality with… Talk like that can get you killed around here.”</span></font> He answered, throwing the rest of his drink back and slowly lowering his glasses before removing them altogether and placing them down on the table. He revealed tendrils of grey traveled across his eyes in intricate patterns. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Tell me, do your sister’s eyes look like this?”</span></font> He asked, the deep baritone softening as his voice lowered.

Lucy leaned on her arm as she stretched, half-way in her seat, half-way out, across the table to view the man's eyes. Entirely due to her inebriation, she hadn't been able to really to get a good look at the man before that moment. He was older, that much had been obvious, but he hadn't just experienced life, she could see it in the scars and blemished on his face. He was a calloused man, obviously shaped and scarred by the world around him, he didn't just survive, he actively fought life to claim some control of his own. His eyes, like gray swirling sandstorms, only told one chapter in a book detailing a story of a lifetime of struggles she would probably never even comprehend. 

He was here though; the bar, with the silver spoon junkie, willing to further pollute his mind with strong and silent demeanor. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Whoa.</span>

That was the longest Lucy had managed to focus on any single thought train the entire evening-- the moment quickly ended as her arm wobbled, gave, and she fell face first onto the table. Diane giggled, several seconds after the fact.

""Shut the fuck up, Diane..."" She half-responded, falling back in her seat, she looked back to the rugged man rekindling her excitement, ""Nope!"" She waved her hand in the air, dismissing the notion, ""Lucania's eyes are mostly normal, they just like... change. With whatever she's feeling, y'know? She's fuckin' garbage at poker. Nah, Your eyes are waaaayy cooler.""

""<span class=""bb-b"">Anyway!</span>"" She uncorked the vial, carefully pouring the powder onto the table with a practiced precision, ""I'd, like, wanna know the name of the guy who's gonna teach me to fuckin' fly!""

Ignoring the girl’s small trouble with the table, Bento took note of her description of Lucania’s eyes. In his experiences with Immortals it seemed like the changes that their eyes typically underwent tended to reflect their powers in some way. Perhaps she had some sort of appearance shifting power, he guessed. Regardless, it was valuable information that the color of her eyes could indicate her feelings. Still, he wasn’t dealing with Lucania at the moment; he was dealing with her younger sister.

<font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Cullen.”</span></font> He lied, pulling a huge knife from its sheath behind him and expertly scooped up a line of coke with the it. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“And yours?”</span></font> He asked offhandedly, as he raised the coke to his face and snorted the line down the edge of the blade. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“God, how the hell does a kid get coke like this?!”</span></font> He said, tossing his head to reset his focus as the drug’s effects started to kick in almost immediately.

""Lucy!"" She shot back at Cullen, associating name with face. He had no reservations in taking his own share of the white horse, and seemed rather practiced in using it. Lucy was impressed, Cullen took a hard line from the edge of the knife, as if the action was reflex. She wondered if it was some kind of muscle memory.

<span class=""bb-i"">Was she like that?</span>

""Fuckin' Gaens,"" She answered the question, ""We got 'em getting it from the plant or whatever. It's purer than the street stuff' all I know..""focusing on her razor and the perfect line that rested on the table before her. 

The world froze and her left nostril felt a fire, but only for the second before the blow hit her system. She shot up, flinging her head back, as if the chemicals had physically assaulted her. Her body tingled with warmth, and her pupils stretched to consume her irises. Her worries felt like sand in the wind, and the sun shone nothing but pleasantries upon her body. Her smile widened.

""<span class=""bb-b"">Whoooo!!!</span>"" She clasped her hands, meeting Cullen's high, but still world-weary gaze with her own young, heavily dilated eyes. ""Yeah!! <span class=""bb-b"">Waaaaaaayyy purer!</span> That <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> good shit!"" Her hands came together again, as if applauding the drug's creating, ""<span class=""bb-b"">You go fuckin' Gaens!!!</span>""

The looseness from the alcohol completely disappeared, replaced with a sharp focus and incredible power. He had no reservations about anything, willing to take on anything, especially more alcohol. It wasn’t hard to get his hands on any, as the bartender had already been paying close attention to the duo. Meeting her gaze, Bento found Lucy’s youthful excitement was strangely endearing. Her innocence in the face of such a terrible, terrible world reminded him of a sunset which cast it’s soft orange glow into the mouth a cave he would never leave. But then again, what was left for a sun, but to burn out and die.

Two glasses arrived and Bento pulled out a bag of pills and shook two out on the table. Taking up his knife again, the Immortal expertly chopped one up into quarters before using the bottom of the handle to crush them further. Just as easily as he had scooped up the cocaine, he used the knife to lift the crushed powder and dump it into his drink, using the blade to stir it in. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“The best part about coke is that you can get fucked up twice.”</span></font> He said, a slight smile escaping onto his face as he prepared the second drink. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“No need to worry, it’s just oxy… Now how about you tell me what it’s like to be a Castalia kid?”</span></font> He added, lifting the drink closer to him in preparation to clink glasses with one of the wealthiest people in the Dust.

""This how you fly?"" Lucy's expression was piquant, but observant. She noted the easy manner in which he made the oxycontin cocktails, even in the high, she could tell when she had things to learn from a person. More or less, Cullen certainly seemed like he knew his shit. Her thoughts bounced around in her head, and as her focus revolved and shifted, all she really cared about was trying the drink. If it could take her further away, then it was worth a shot.

""Castalia kid?"" Despite herself, her left eye twitched as he asked his question, ""Honestly I couldn't fuckin' tell you..."" She touched her glass to his before taking a swig, ""Only part of me that's Castalia is the ammo they give me!""

Bento took a long drink, letting out an amused, yet somewhat annoyed grunt. She hadn’t answered the question he asked. He wasn’t interested in her daddy issues, but perhaps she wasn’t aware of the divide that existed between them. Perhaps she didn’t even know what it meant to be a Castalia kid herself. Bento wasn’t going to press it any further though, if she felt like opening up then she would, otherwise he wasn’t going to ruin the high forcibly squeezing a revelation out of her. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“This ain’t flying, kid. This is the counter to the coke; it’ll bring your heart rate back down and get rid of that nasty tension. In a little bit you’ll start to feel the fluidity and the euphoria, but the coke will keep you from getting sleepy.”</span></font> He explained, tipping back the rest of the drink like water.

<font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Now we just have to decide if we’re going to go to another world, or tear this one up.”</span></font> The higher he got, the easier it became to consume more. He was still in control at the moment, but by the end of the night he was hoping to change that.

Lucy could raise a glass to that!

""Tear it up!"" she took a swig of her drink, letting the chemical cocktail of drugs wash over her. The glass sloshed with the liquid in her hand as it left her mouth, for a single sober moment, she began, ""Y'know..."" she chugged the rest of the of, despite the burn, ""You prolly think I'm a spoiled rich bitch, huh!?"" She slurred, ""I agree if you do!"" She slammed the empty glass on the table, hard, ""Now let's <span class=""bb-b"">TEAR IT UP!</span>""

<span class=""bb-i"">You’re not spoiled, you’re sheltered. You’re unlike any other person in this bar in that you’ve never stared death-and I mean real death-straight in the face and survived.</span> He felt like saying, but ultimately he decided to hold back. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“It doesn’t matter where you come from. There’s nothing in this world that can’t be destroyed.”</span></font> Bento stood up, a bit shaky on his feet, but quickly regained control of his body, <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“I’m going to get a bottle. Either ditch the escort or whatever you want, just get ready to fucking fly…”</span></font>

""You got it, boss man!"" Lucy giggled. She turned to Diane, only to find that her 'guardian' had fallen asleep. Comically, with a still burning blunt hanging out of the side of a snoring mouth. Lucy exaggerated her rolling eyes, taking the joint a way, she extinguished it in a nearby ashtray, seeing the purple-gray wisps die out as she subbed it out with the piles of others. ""She's fucking <span class=""bb-i"">out</span>, man."" she stated, with a dry laugh. Looking now, at Bento, her expression became cheeky, but skeptical, ""Now, when the fuck are you gonna show <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">volare</span></span>-- I wanna fuckin' <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">SOAR</span></span>!""

As Bento returned with an open bottle in his hand, he suddenly noticed that he couldn’t remember how he had acquired it. To make matters worse, there was already a substantial amount of the liquor that was already gone. He raised the bottle to his lips and turned it up to the sky, sucking down another sizable helping of the alcohol before offering it to Lucy. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“You want to fucking fly? Then we gotta get on the roof!”</span></font>

The next thing he knew, they were standing on the roof, the winds softly tossing pieces of paper and cigarette butts around them. It had gotten darker since he had first arrived, but there was still enough light to see each other well enough. <font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">“Tell me, Lucy, can your sister do this?”</span></font> He shouted, throwing his hands into the air, sending the winds into a frenzy, whirling all around the odd duo.

""<span class=""bb-b"">DUUUUUUUUUUUDE!</span>"" Lucy was yelling above the miniature sand storm that surrounded them... Except it didn't even have any sand! For lack of a better term, she referred to the swirling winds as a 'trash storm' in her mind. The excitement in her system only increased as Cullen showed his powers to her, but she was sober enough to recognize that he probably wouldn't want his ability to do things she had never seen the wind do before 'trash.'

""<span class=""bb-b"">HELL NO!!</span>"" She was filled with awe at it all, ""<span class=""bb-b"">ALL SHE DOES IS YELL AT STUFF!!! SHIT, YOU REALLY FUCKING <span class=""bb-i"">CAN</span> FLY, CAN'T YOU?</span>""

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“This is how you tear the world apart!”</font></span> Bento roared, throwing his hands to his sides, flinging all the trash and debris off the roof. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Nature bends to the Immortal’s command, and we too are bent by its will! The winds will happily lift a man to play amongst the stars…”</font></span> He smiled, power rushing through his veins, the intoxicating mixture of invincibility and euphoric perfection taking control of his body. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“So are you ready to fly, Lucy? Or are you too scared to touch the sky?""</font></span>

""<span class=""bb-b"">Christ...</span>"" Lucy still found herself struggling to speak above the tempest around her, she wasn't aware winds could be this intense-- and she didn't really <span class=""bb-i"">care</span> how it happened. She wasn't a motherfucking scientist! She kept a hand on her head to keep her hat from flying off into the swirling windy night whilst yelling a response to Cullen, ""<span class=""bb-b"">I got more drugs in me right now than I got blood, <span class=""bb-i"">of course</span> I want to fucking fly!</span>"" Moving closer to the man in the eye of the storm, she reached to grab his hand.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“You’re going to need to hold on tighter than that.”</font></span> Bento said, reaching an arm around her back, and sweeping her off her feet with the other. He had only done this once before with another person, but Lucy was considerably lighter so he was confident he could handle it. Whether that was the drugs talking or sound reasoning was of no consequence. The winds concentrated around his feet as he bent his knees and without warning, leapt straight up into the air as they were propelled high into the sky. At the top of their climb the winds began whirling around them in a tight ball.

Bento nosedived and brought them level just over the city, soaring low over the inner districts of the city, lit up by elegant streetlights. They flew over the slums, dirty and downtrodden, as Bento suddenly noticed his heart was absolutely pounding in his chest, and it wasn’t the coke… He didn’t care though, he would push it to the edge, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“LETS SEE HOW HIGH WE CAN GO!”</font></span> He shouted, pulling up and dropping the ball around them in favor of a powerful blast beneath his feet, sending them rocketing upwards. The pair rose high into the sky, watching the city shrink below them. Bento’s vision was going in and out but he kept pushing until the winds gave way underneath them. Bento blacked out momentarily as they began to fall through the sky, spiraling down towards the dirt.

His consciousness was restored roughly 30 seconds before they hit the ground, and reacted almost instantly. Without thinking he shot a hand out and pushed back against the earth with all of his power, slowing their descent near to a crawl just as they hit the ground. He felt his back take the brunt of the hit, while Lucy fell on top of him, knocking the wind out of him, though thankfully only figuratively this time. For the first time in weeks Bento couldn’t stop himself from laughing…

Lucy didn't have time respond before Cullen managed to literally sweep her off her feet. She found herself held in his more-than-capable arms, in the same manner a man would hold his newlywed wife-- except <span class=""bb-i"">this time</span> with the added bonus of being high out of her mind and in the middle of a fucking windstorm! The pair rose, and Lucy screamed. Not out of fear, but out of an appreciation for the need to release all the excitement she felt in the moment. Her mind wouldn't let her wonder about the type of man that did drugs with complete strangers and then took them flying, she was enjoying the <span class=""bb-i"">now</span>, and the now was <span class=""bb-i"">fucking awesome</span>.

""<span class=""bb-b"">Yesss!! Volare!!</span>"" She managed to squeak out in between the loud pulses of gale and her own adrenaline, she raised her arms in a cheer, still held in the windcaller's arms, she screamed again, with more drug/risk fueled excitement, a genuine wide, slightly frothing smile on her face. ""<span class=""bb-b"">I can see fucking everything!</span>"" She wasn't lying, the windcaller Cullen had taken them high enough to see far more than the poor and rich sectors of Russel City--  

She could see the wild fires of Tas burning in the distance. Other gems filled the dark desert, too; Parkland, Harlem, Laguna, each a slightly different glow, all large. As they continued to gain altitude Lucy's screaming became a silent, if not shaky, appreciation of the view she was being give. Behind them was the bright, wasteful glow of Serenity... it looked like it was a million miles away. When they had first risen she could see the lights of vehicles burning their midnight oil to make runs, even the ant-like silhouettes of some people.

Her lips parted slightly, Lucy was struck in a silent awe. She could literally see <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> of Dust. Had anyone ever done that before? The sight was one of absolute beauty, only increased by the mysterious air the night gave it all. Perhaps it was the drugs, but it was all so overwhelming she wanted to cry. She wished more people could see this.

She looked above into the almighty void. She reached a shaky hand out to the nearest star possible, that ever-present twinkle to the north, it was so close, but so impossibly far away. She leaned out of his arms slightly, not noticing an end to the wind. If only she could reach just... a little... further...... Just......... Wait?

""Cullen?"" Lucy said, a panic growing in her voice. They were <span class=""bb-i"">falling</span>. She looked back at the man, the fear in her eyes was met with the sleep that had overcome his own. 

He had gone an passed out!

""<span class=""bb-b"">God dammit Cullen, wake up!</span>"" She screamed, more fear than excitement now. They were falling <span class=""bb-i"">fast</span>. She slapped the man, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Fuck! You old motherfucker, if you don't wake up we're both gonna fucking die!</span>"" So much for the beauty of it all, it looked like this was going to be the last thing Lucy saw before she died.

She gave Cullen several more slaps.

""<span class=""bb-b"">FUCK!</span>"" She clenched onto him as they fell, faster and faster toward the rapidly growing Russel City Slums. The worst part of this kind of death, Lucy realized, was that you had to resign to the fact that it was going to happen no matter what you did, and that no amount of struggling would help. She was going to go splat on the roof of some bum's shack. <span class=""bb-i"">Fuck--Cazzo.</span>

Maybe... this is what she wanted, though? 

She noted that she had stopped screaming. Maybe this was alright? Maybe she wanted death? It wasn't like she was doing anything with her life anyway? She was just some unwanted cunt who sat around and spent other people's money. She was only alive because killing herself directly would be too much effort. Wind rushed harshly past, Lucy sighed with bloodshot eyes.

<span class=""bb-i"">No pain... Just let it happen.</span>

""<span class=""bb-b"">Fuck</span>, fine whatever. Let's just do it. At least I ain't going out like no bitch..."" She muttered. With that, Lucy closed her eyes, and awaited death's sweet release, still cradled in Cullen's arms...

A release that wouldn't come, at least not at that time, it seemed. Cullen had come to mid-fallen and drastically slowed their descent just enough to make the final 'thud' result in Lucy receive nothing more than a mild bruising. She was alive. <span class=""bb-i"">She was alive!</span> The adrenaline was beginning to run her brain ragged as it worked against the other chemicals, but she knew being alive was a good thing. She could hear Cullen laughing, and as she opened her eyes, she could see mirth directly-- her face was only inches above his-- she had fallen right on top of him. Without thinking, Lucy slowly joined in, and eventually tossed her arms around the older man.

""You're a fucking bastard... you know that?"" She said, squeezing all she could out of the surprise hug, ""I mean, I thought we were <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> gonna bite the Dust!""

<span class=""bb-i"">Twice I’ve cheated death today.</span> The crushed opiates had overpowered the coke by this point and Bento felt himself swimming through a perfect world; one where a shattered soul could be whole again, if only for a fleeting moment. Lucy threw her arms around him. The laughter slowly faded from his lips.

<span class=""bb-i"">A tear stricken face buried in his chest. A hand running through long blond hair. ”Don’t ever leave me.” The phantom whispered, “Please don’t leave.”</span>

Lucy held him tighter, reigning in Bento’s wandering mind, laying it to rest safely in the arms of a child. He raised a calloused hand and placed it softly on the girl’s hip, mustering all of what little tenderness he had left in his weary heart. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Feel alive yet?”</font></span> He smiled weakly.

She blinked rapidly, trying to clear her mind of the last vestiges of sleep. <span class=""bb-i"">No nightmares this time. Strange.</span> She glanced around her, eyeing the walls and sunlight streaming through a broken window and door. <span class=""bb-i"">Where am I this time?</span> 


Pushing herself to her feet, she gave her rucksack and then herself a cursory examination to make sure everything was where it should be. She shrugged, shouldering the rucksack and making for the rather perforated looking door. <span class=""bb-i"">Why did I even sleep in here? Anybody could’ve just walked in here and done as they wished.</span> Some things would just remain a mystery.

Sighing as she made for the door, she jumped back in surprise momentarily as something crunched underfoot. Just seemed like a bit of glass, though it was a bit oddly shaped and rather thing to just be from a beer bottle or something.

A small bit of plaster fell from the roof and bounced off her head, prompting her to look up and notice the burst lightbulb. She glanced down, again, connecting the two. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Weird.</span> 

She thought back to the previous night with the body in the streets, and the strangely dark block of buildings. All the other lights had been on except for one block, which for some reason she’d chosen a building in to sleep. She’d wondered what’d caused it, but the mutilated corpse in the streets and her exhaustion had pushed it to the back of her mind. 

Now her curiosity burned at her, were all the light bulbs burned out like this or had this part of the grid simply failed? Come to think of it, there didn’t seem to be many if any people here either.

She fumbled with the straps of her mask, undoing the top ones and letting the mask swing free and hang by the back of her neck, the fresh air didn’t hurt anyway. There was of course the risk of someone seeing her eyes, but well…
_________________

It seemed all the bulbs had burst; every single one she’d found had exploded, covering the rooms with glass shards. She hadn’t found anybody though, which was odd. The buildings themselves were perfectly habitable for the most part, aside from the exploded lights. 

She’d found a second corpse too, charred this time.

Walking into another building, Vladimira called out again, “Hello? Anybody here?”

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">The maw of the beast hung before her, suspended in mid air. Its lips curled back into an amused sneer, hungry, wet with anticipation. But everything had frozen, something had intruded, echoeing across the blighted grounds of this place...</span>

Alex awoke with a start, momentarily blinded by the incandescent rays dancing across her face. She rubbed her eyes fitfully, ignoring the heated tingles of pain exploding through her stiff muscles. She sat up slowly, in a slightly dazed state. The memories of the previous night came back to her slowly, mimicking the progress of the sweat beading down her face.

She shuddered, picking herself up from her prostrate position on the dusty, plaster littered floor. She hadn't made it home, choosing instead the safety of four walls, cracked and barely holding. Luckily she hadn't fallen unconscious in the pile of broken glass in the middle of the room, the remains of a once functioning light fixture.

The heat of the quickly coming morning sun had already turned the room into a makeshift oven, and swathed in layers of clothing wasn't helping her any. She tied her long sleeved jacket around her waist, adding another fluttering layer to lower attire. She pushed her goggles back down into place over her eyes, running the other hand through her shortly cropped hair to push her bangs from her eyes. Alex straightened the white tanktop covering the upper portion of her body, it was shoishowing a bit more of her moderate bust than she would have cared for. But the lower cuts were a bit cooler to wear.

She poked her head from the doorway, out into the hall, remembering the voice from her dream.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Uhm.. Hello?""</font> She asked the dim hallway, still shaken up from the night before, a timid unease draping itself over her conscience.

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

Vladimira wiped her brow with a gloved hand. The desert sun was turning the building into an oven that lacked any electricity or gas burners, but certainly didn't seem to suffer for it. Her mask was off at least, she'd almost forgotten how nice fresh air was. <span class=""bb-i"">I should clean it soon. It's going to get moldy.</span> She thought glumly, aimlessly walking through the building.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard a voice call out, seemingly in response to her. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Uhm.. Hello?""</font>

Starting slightly, she whirled around towards the direction of the voice; her cloak, holsters, and rifle flying out slightly, the butt of Comrade hitting the wall. She glanced through the dusty air, noticing a platinum haired girl leaning out of a doorway. 

She raised an eyebrow, giving a small wave, ""Hi."" She wished she hadn't taken off her gas mask, her eyes were plainly visible without the welding goggles she'd fused to it. If the girl pulled a weapon on her for being an Immortal though, it wouldn't really be too much trouble to deal with her though...

A pange of andrenaline coated fear burst through Alex's heart for a split second, causing her to step into the cooridor with her hands on her knives. Another, more terrylifying feeling swept through her, all too familiar. She forced herself to take a breath, trying to calm down while still staying way of the person before her.

The hall was dim, and filled with slowly spinning motes of dust mingling in a lethargic dance with partially vaproized plaster and molding. The person standing before her was fully geared, and armed. As Alex's eyes adjusted to the paltry levels of light, she faintly made out that the rogueish looking figure before her was a woman. A looter maybe? Further I inspection caused her to gasp, taking in a breath of polluted air sharply.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Those eyes..""</font> she began, a bit absentmindely. It was a wonder she missed them at all, glowing with the red fervor of hot embers, pulsing slowly. Her hands tightened on the grips of her blades as she tried to fight the sickly feeling spreading through her, unfurling beneath her skin. <span class=""bb-i"">'Please.. not again'</span> she pleaded in her mind, begging her inner turmoil to avoid recreating the events of the previous nights.

She blinked, taking another breath and turning towards the Immortal just a few feet from her, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Immortal then?""</font> She asked rhetorically, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""That would make two of us.""</font> She took one hand from her weapon to push up her goggles to reveal her own changed eyes, propelled by her withering will to fight, Deathly afraid of the feeling that was slowly subsiding within herself. At the very least, it was a warning that this would not be an easy fight. At the worst, it would happen again, whatever it was would try to tear her apart.

Vladimira relaxed slightly when the other woman pushed her goggles up, revealing solid white eyes. So she probably wouldn't have to make a mess then, that was good. 

""How very astute of you."" She replied, lowering her hands from the grips of her pistols, though she noticed the other woman still had her own hands on her weapons. ""If you're wondering, I'm not here for a fight."" 

Glancing at a shaft of light entering the hallway from the open door of the room the woman had just left, she looked back to her. ""Actually I was just investigating the lights here. They've all exploded for some reason. I normally would've slept elsewhere, but I wanted to get off the streets with whatever had happened."" She jerked her head in the direction of the streets, ""You know anything about that?""

Alex relaxed slightly, her arms handlhanding loosely as she twiddled her thumbs, like a child that had been caught doing something wrong. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I.. ah,""</font> She began, pausing momentarily as the memories bubbled up once more,<font color=""#ed1c24"">""...I kind of did that. B-but I didn't mean to.""</font> She added the last bit hastily, with no plausible reason that she should explain herself. Other than the realization that her world was upside down. Was she passively reaching out for somebody, anybody, to help her? To comfort her, to help her reestablish control of her own life?

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I can, uh,""</font> she stopped, her hand partially raised in the air, memories of her power flucating wildly out of control. A small current ran between her fingertips, a sizzling stream of blue energy writhing between her extended fingers. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I.. haha, lost control.""</font> She explained a bit pathetically, again faintly wondering why she was saying so much. Trusting this complete stranger. It was a dangerous world, but the twinge of that hot, sickly feeling reminded her to fear. To fear it, to fear herself. She shuddered as the display of energy faded.

Vladimira's eyebrow shot up in surprise. ""You're the one who did... whatever it was to that body?"" She paused for a moment, mentally facepalming. She'd been referring to the body, but apparently this woman had thought she meant the lights. ""Actually I meant whatever happened out on the streets last night."" 

She glanced at the woman's hands, electricity, interesting. There was the explanation for the lights even without the stranger actually bothering to explain it. ""Not as though I was throwing blame around. I was mainly curious. It's a bit of an odd thing to see an entire block without light but the surrounding buildings perfectly fine, that's all."" She paused again, ""For the record, I think everybody loses control of things at some point. The forces of nature are a little much to bend to your will without the occasional mishap.""

Why was she so cheerfully talking with this person? In all her years living in Arclight she'd never been this talkative with anybody, even her own family. 

Perhaps she was lonely. What was that saying again, something about not knowing what you had until it was gone?

She scoffed to herself, that was preposterous. 

Leaning against a wall, she dismissed the thoughts with a puff of air aimed at an irritating lock of hair that had fallen into her face. ""To be honest I wasn't actually expecting to find anyone here, or anywhere around here. I'm guessing you didn't see whatever it was that was responsible for that hunk of meat that used to be a body outside?""

Alex closed her eyes hesitantly, the image of Cassie's face contorted in agony as Alex's uncontrolled power washed over her. She wiped at her eyes, preventing the gathering moisture from escalating any further. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I...""</font> She hesitated, a new pain smothering her heart, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I... could really use a drink.""</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Can't we all?</span> Vladimira thought wryly, fumbling with the canteen strapped to her side. She pulled it over her head, offering it to the woman, ""I'd think you'd need a bucket with what they did to him, but if you'd like, here.""

Alex shook her head apologetically towards the woman, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I meant something A bit... stronger. There's a new bar not far from here... The Bitch's Brew, uhm, care to join me?""</font> She asked, feeling that reoccuring theme of reaching out once more. Honestly she was afraid to be alone, she wanted to obscure the problems that tore at her sanity.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""And... it was a woman I'd like to forget about.""</font> She replied remorsefully, sadness tugging at her heart.

Vladimira's mind flashed back to the charred corpse she'd found earlier; she nodded in silent acknowledgement. ""I wouldn't know anything else to do anyway. Sure, I'll come."" She looped the canteen back over her head and closed the flaps on her holsters, seemed she wouldn't need the guns inside them anyway. ""Bitch's Brew? Interesting name.""

She gestured in the general direction of exit, ""Lead the way, I suppose.""

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

A handful of minutes later, and a quick pace, brought Alex hland her newly found companion to the smokey entranceway of the slum's newest club, and, more importantly, bar. She crossed the threshold into the dim, yet well lit interior, composed of brightly hued colors of gold, with subtler undertones of black and brown. Though the latter belonged to the black floors, zigzaged with gold, and the well lacquered brown tables and seats.

She took a second to marvel at the place. To one side of the room a small group of performers were playing a slow jazz bumber, accompanied by what must have been one of the most beautiful, half naked dancers Alex had ever seen. Albeit the dancer's more sexual parts were covered, in what else; flashy, gold material that seemed to reflect the light.

Alex nodded towards a dimmer corner of the room, with a good view of the stage. The soothing sounds of music drowned out the quieter undertones of chatter. Apparently more than just this new friend and herself followed the principle of, 'It's five o'clock somewhere.'

Alex seated herself on a high backed chair with plush velvet padding, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Fancy..""</font> she remarked, something quite uncanny in the slums. A waiter, also considerably easy on the eyes, promplty came by, quiet as a whisper carried on the wind. Alex ordered the house special before turning to the womanly companion that had accompanied her, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I'm Alexandria, or just Alex.""</font> She paused for a moment before speaking again,<font color=""#ed1c24"">""What ah.. brings you to Dust?""</font> She asked, taking her mind away from its depressive, tormenting thoughts. At least until the alcohol arrived.

Vladimira for her part was both highly impressed with the bar, and underwhelmed. The prodigious amount of gold and nice furniture certainly appealed to her. <span class=""bb-i"">That. Is a lot of fucking gold.</span> Arclight hadn't exactly been an overly hard life, but it was an industrial town, not a luxury resort. This though... she tried to picture the amount this must have cost, then decided against it. It'd probably cause her physical pain to think of all the money she didn't have. 

The dancers and waiters didn't do a whole lot for her at the moment, though. Perhaps it was because they were so overtly flashing their bodies in the air, but at that point it lost the sexy mystique for her.

The gold, though...

She shook her head in a small abrupt movement to clear it, turning back to Alex as she told her her name.

""Vladimira Kovalik. Not sure if you can find a short version of that that isn't physically painful to listen to."" She replied, pausing as Alex asked her what brought her to Dust, a mildly puzzled expression on her face. ""Unless we're counting fun times between two people who loved each other very much, and nine months, nothing brought me to Dust."" She smirked, taking a swig from her canteen- she made a habit of not drinking anything from anywhere until she knew she could trust it. ""If you were wondering what brought me to Russel, well, I've got to eat somehow, and it's easier to sell scrap than hunt down whatever mutated beast strikes my fancy as looking good to eat.""

A sudden thought struck her, and she glanced around in concern, before visibly relaxing- though she was still tensed. She whispered as nonchalantly as she could, ""Eyes. They're not covered. I don't believe they simply haven't noticed. Something's a bit off about this place.""

Alex gasped slightly, realizing that she, indeed, had not bothered to cover her eyes. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Y-you're right...""</font> Alex trailed off as the promiscuous waitress returned with two mugs, seeming to look Alex directly in the eyes with a smile on her face.

""Castilia House Special."" She said, promptly returning to her duties.

Alex cleared her throat, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Castilia huh..""</font> She pondered, taking a sip. The liquid burned pleasantly as it slipped down her throat. Another gracious drink left a warm feeling gathering through her body. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I don't think that's of concern...""</font> She said, pausing for another generous gulp.

Vladimira too noticed the complete lack of reaction the waitress had shown to Alex's eyes, and actually relaxed, though she still kept her guard up slightly. ""So I notice. So I notice.""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""And yes.. I did mean Russel Town.. sorry. There's just a lot on my mind, ah..""</font> Another pause, and another sip, a pink flush developing on Alex's warming face, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Vladimira.. Kovalik?""</font> She said, almost questioningly.

""Last I checked that's what my name was, anyway."" Vladimira smirked.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I remember once someone told me, a scholar I think, that my name descended from Old Earth Russian. I don't really know what significance that holds, but your name is said kind of like mine. Alexandria Svet-Yulia, Yulia is hyphenated and translates into 'young', one of my parents, this scholar said, was from a different descent, probably my mother.""</font> She said, looking a bit happier as her flushed faced stared into the mug of strong alcohol. She hadn't even had the thought that it could be laced, or poisoned, And at this very moment she didn't mind either way. Though that could have been due to the amount of alcohol she had consumed.


Vladimira sat in silence as Alex drank the booze, leaving the second mug -presumably meant for herself- untouched.

""Alexandria Svet-Yulia... interesting. As far as I know that's definitely Russian, same as my own name."" She paused, taking another swig from her canteen. ""Vladimira Kovalik. Assuming my oh-so-slightly-proud-of-his-heritage father knew his stuff, my name has something to do with a great rule, like I'm an empress or something."" She smirked wryly at that, ""The other bit is something to do with being a smith, which makes sense I suppose.""

What was with her? She barely knew this, ""Alex"" and yet here she was, chatting amiably like she'd known this person for years! Normally she'd have simply shrugged and walked off after finding her, yet somehow she'd been lured into a conversation, and was now in a bar conversing about their respective names! 

How long had it been since she'd left? Not a year, but several months at least. <span class=""bb-i"">And I've barely said a word to anybody in that entire time.</span> She groused to herself, <span class=""bb-i"">And now here's this person who's not shooting at me, not shouting at me, and not calling the guards on me. This is too weird...</span>

Alex nodded absentmindedly, listening to Vladimira while watching the scantily clad dancer prance about the stage, when she wasn't doing impressive acrobatics with a rather shiny pole. She giggled , despite her earlier mood, replaced now with a fiery alcohol induced mirth. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""A woman I had... erhm.. once been close too, told me Alexandria meant flower. Though really it means, defender of man.""</font> She stated, a facade of triumph presenting itself as she lifted her mug, another giggle escaping her. 

Vladmira glanced towards the mug, giving her head another short sharp jerk to clear it, ""How's that taste, by the way?"" She asked innocently. Maybe she could distract herself with some booze.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""It tastes..""</font>Alex began, taking another sip and letting it sit in her mouth a moment, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Like motor oil set on fire in your mouth.""</font> 

She lifted the cool, polished container to her lips, and a moment later found herself staring at the bottom of the glass. <span class=""bb-i"">'That's no good, I can still think'</span> she thought, catching the attention of the beautiful muse waiting upon a gathering of patrons for more, the group looking much higher class than Alex in her dirty clothes in various states of wear, added with her rather low cut tanktop, which no longer bothered her as much. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I'm hardly a defender, let alone of man,""</font> She scoffed, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I scavenge mostly, when I'm not busy killing people in blind rage.""</font>

The alcohol spurred her words before she even grasped what she was saying, albeit she hardly had the capacity to care. She wasn't much of a drinker, and she had poured the stiff brew down her throat with reckless abandon. It's full effect was quickly washing over her in pleasant tides of increasingly drunken stupor.

Vladimira nodded at her words, cautiously sniffing the drink. She tentatively lifted it and gave it a sip, her face clenching in displeasure at the acrid taste. ""That's..."" she coughed, ""Certainly something."" 

Setting the mug down, she glanced over at Alexandria, ""Killing people in blind rage tends to happen, in my experience. Usually after they start shooting at me."" She chuckled softly, ""Poor bastards, never knew what hit them."" 

She was unaffected by the sip she'd taken, and was somewhat amused to see the effects it appeared to be having on Alex. ""Besides,"" she scoffed, ""It's not like the vast majority of them deserve a defender regardless, what with their need to shoot at us. I mean, you'd think glowing eyes wouldn't be cause to shoot somebody, but apparently it is."" She took another drink from the mug, ""And hey, best defense is a good offense! Or something like that.""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Yea?""</font> Alex countered, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Tell that to the woman I had tied to a chair, that <span class=""bb-i"">corpse</span> laying in the street. All for bad information that was hardly any skin off my back.""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Thank you gorgeous,""</font> Alex spoke, carefree, as the waitress returned with an identical mug, except this one was full. The waitress smiled politely as Alex fished in her pockets for something to pay with. Finding them empty she held up one intoxicated finger as she drew her gun. The hostess took an involuntary step back as Alex took the 9mm pistol and unloaded the clip. Ten dirty rounds thudded across the table, which the waitress graciously accepted.

Vladimira frowned at Alex's sudden about face in demeanor as the waitress approached. Her frown deepened after she unloaded her gun to pay for the drink, ""You might not want to spend everything you have on booze. It'll all be gone tomorrow and then you'll have nothing else to buy, oh I don't know, food?"" She decided not to comment on the corpse. Some things shouldn't be discussed around drunk people.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Drinks are on me Vlaa-,""</font> Alex's tongue fumbled the name, which she followed up with a garbled mess of sounds, finshed with a cresendo of giggles. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Excuse me, forgot how to speak for a moment... ah, what if I called you Vira? Or even Miri, I think that's cute,""</font> Alex pronounced, or rather rambled, embarassment spreading across her cheeks as she buried her eyes into the mug pressed against her petite lips.

Vladimira's frown changed to back to an upturned eyebrow as Alex 'forgot how to speak', ""Those don't even make sense."" She grumbled, ""What, are we cutting and pasting bits of my name around now?"" She sighed, taking a slightly larger sip of the alcohol in front of her.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""You know, I want to try smoking,""</font> Alex stated after a moment, out of nowhere, her attention span waning.

""You don't. All it does is char your lungs. Spent enough time around heavy equipment to know that."" Vladimira grumbled again at the mention of smoking. She failed to see the difference in smoke from dried plants carrying narcotics, and diesel smoke.

""By the way, did you know anything about that man's body in the street? You never actually told me, and something gives me the feeling I might not want to mention that here.""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Mm..""</font> Alex began, sombering up a bit at what she grasped as irritation from the woman across her, ""<font color=""#ed1c24"">No actually.. I was.. preoccupied leaving my own corpses. Actually, I haven't seen many guardians around.. I was quite surprised to find you instead of an armed battalion dragging me out of there... which means somebody is stirring up some big trouble.""</font>

She pondered what she had said for a moment, nearly forming a coherent grasp on current events, before the memories played back in her head. Another drink of alcohol let her mind wander away, and another let her become bemused with something else entirely, for a moment anyways.

She turned back to Vladimira, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Perhaps someone is giving those tainted wings a run for their money... things they can't catch get them all up in a huff.""</font> She said, speaking from amused experience. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Maybe... just maybe, they're planning something big,""</font> She speculated, setting the mug down and pushing it away as a nasueated lump formed in her stomach.

Vladimira nodded, ""Big trouble can be either good or bad. Depends on who it's trouble for."" She paused, ""Now that is the question.""

She glanced back down at the drink- contemplating just draining the thing. 

""Can't say I'd be sad to see the Wings running, for their money or otherwise. Be interesting to see what they do when their guns don't fire."" She grinned maliciously at that, ""Maybe I'll have to find whoever's planning this big thing... see if I can help them out."" She muttered to herself, though she didn't make too much of an effort to keep it quiet. Worst case scenario someone was a Wing and she simply nailed him to the wall with his own gun.

""Fuck it."" She sighed, grabbing the mug and downing its contents. The alcohol burned its way down her throat like a stream of liquid fire. She looked at it unimpressed, ""Eh, I've had stronger. Not that bad though.""

She glanced over at Alex's unfinished mug, ""You going to finish that?""

Alex grimaced at the mug before her, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Ugh.. no.. I'm a lightweight.""</font> Her stomach grumbled in response, reminding her that a belly full of booze and lacking food since later afternoon the previous day was a bad mix.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Help them you said?""</font> Alex asked, backtracking to what Vladimira had said. ""<font color=""#ed1c24"">I don't have mush love for the wings either, but I'm not big on using corpses to send messages... it stirs up the people too.""</font>

Alex leaned with her elbows against the table as her state continued deteriorating. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I'd mush rather things shtay quieter... I like quiet...""</font> Alex said, trailing off as she noticed the throbbing onset of a headache coming on. The soft music seemed to alter into the peircing wails of tortured instruments, the chatter becoming a dull drone. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Stupid concrete coulda been shofter,""</font> She mumbled quietly, a tiny hiccup escaping her. ""Whoever it is.. I don't think they understand the full force of the wings. They have a lot of reshources, alotta firepower.""

""Ah but you shee,"" Vladimira replied, pulling Alex's mug over to herself and downing the contents, ""Their firepower isn't much good if the barrels are fused shut."" She snickered, ""Jusht imagine it! They're getting ready with the artillery or something and boom! Their guns explode!"" 

She leaned against the bar, ""You can't deny though, corpses are a very efficient means of conveying a poignant message of discontent with the status quo at a targeted audience!"" She eyed the bottoms of the mugs for more alcohol, ""Quiet is boring.""

She shrugged, ""Somehow I doubt any fight would devolve into a war of attrition. The Wings are big fuckin' cowards, shoot enough of them and they start running, and then they die even faster."" 

""Thank you by the way,"" she began, ""for the booze."" She gave Alex a tight hug, and a peck on the cheek, then drew away. ""Booze."" She chirped happily. All it took was a little alcohol to loosen her up and then she'd start hanging off of people, she realized; just like that time with her father's vodka.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Ah, but you shee-""</font> Alex cut off, startled by Vladamira's sudden display of affection. She blushed deeply, feeling long supressed emotions bloom from within her.

She choked off a nervous giggle, ""Does this mean I can call you Miri now?"" She giggled, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""... oh.. and uh.. you're welcome, for the booze ...hic!""</font> She looked at Vladimira, absorbing what she saw. Heavily dressed in travel gear, and captivating steel gray hair like fine wires. And her eyes, Alex stared at them for a moment, watching them pulse in rhythm with her heartbeat, like glowing coals formed of molten metal.

Alex coughed lamely, a bright blush rising on her face, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""You contwol metals then? Can you make my knives dansh?""</font> She asked impusively, smiling widely at the foreign thought, unaware of the actual danger this woman could posses.

Vladimira smirked at the blush on Alex's face. It'd been a long time since she'd hugged somebody, she realized. It had just been some spur of the moment impulse- though where the peck on the cheek had come from she had no idea.

She raised an eyebrow in amusement, ""Perhaps you can."" She chortled, ""Shtill got no idea where you got that from."" Her face flushed slightly in turn as she noticed Alex studying her features. <span class=""bb-i"">She's not bad looking... Nice hair, nice eyes...</span>

Vladimira gave herself a mental slap. That was just the... whatever it was, talking. 

She feigned insult, clutching her chest in mock injury. ""Dance? Is that all you want?"" She scoffed, ""You just want to see them <span class=""bb-i"">dance</span>?"" She brought her head slowly and melodramatically to the table, ""T'would be a grave washte of my talent! Like choosing a pocketknife to shlay a monster when you could have a heavy machine gun!""

She leaned over, giving Alex a side hug as she gestured figuratively to the world at large. ""Jusht think! I could make those knives do anything you want! You can't want them to just dance!""

Alex leaned into Vladimira's partial embrace as the room seemed to tilt, giggling at her companion's melodramatic gestures. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""But my pocket knivesh are shpeeecial!""</font> She retorted, putting a long drawn emphasis on the final word. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I dooo want to see them dance!""</font> She pouted playfully.

As if on cue, the band to one side of the room changed from the soft jazz number they had been playing to a livelier tempo, enticing a few of the patrons to actually dance. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Oh, Shee! The band agrees, les dance!""</font> Alex blurted rather rapidly, attempting to push herself back from the table. Instead she succeeded in tipping herself over backwards, knocking the air and a few strained giggles from her lungs. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Ack!""</font> she declared, quite amused with herself, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Maybe not then! The floor and I are not friendsh at thish very moment!""</font>

Vladimira frowned, ""And what makesh them shpecial?"" She asked curiously, eyeing Alex lying on the floor. That fall hadn't exactly looked pleasant. 

She pushed herself off the seat, bending down and looking at Alex in amusement. ""And no, the floor and you don't look like you get along very well."" She smirked, ""Maybe it's grumpy at you for falling on it?"" 

She grabbed Alex's hand and dragged her upright, ""I'd shtay upright pershonally. Don't wanna think about what that floor's sheen."" 

She eyed the band, deciding that it didn't seem too inviting. ""Let'sh sit somewhere you're not gonna fall as much.... like over there or shomething."" She pointed at a booth seat looking thing in the corner of the bar. ""Looks shofter too."" She wrapped her arm around Alex's shoulder and started walking for the booth seat.

Alex smiled as she was led in her drunken state towards the booth. Finally hitting the peak of her alcohol consumption, and wrapped in the warm blanket of the Castilia House Special. Things like death, tragedy, and the monster inside of her no longer troubled her, filled only with amusing and obscure thoughts.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""So.. missh.. ah.. hm.. Mira,""</font> Alex began, grasping at the fuzzy thoughts that seemed to be pulling away from her, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Where are you staying?""</font>For most, such a bold question would have further implications. Alex however, was currently busy fondling the golden velvet curtain, as Vladimira helped her into the booth. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""So shoft..""</font> She purred, a bit distracted.

Vladimira eyed Alex in amusement as she fondled the curtain. <span class=""bb-i"">She must not drink much, if at all.</span>

Her eyebrow raised as Alex asked her where she was staying, and her gaze wandered to the ceiling as she thought to herself. To be honest with herself, she didn't know. Normally she'd just find a building with reasonably intact walls, scare out any squatters, and hunker down there for a couple days while she sold off her salvage. She didn't really have anywhere to stay. Hell, the place she currently called ""home"" was a hole in the sand!

She looked back to Alex, ""I don't know, actually. That's a good queshtion."" She lowered herself into the booth, gloved fingers tapping out the rhythm to some old pre-Fall song. ""Why do you ashk?""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Well,""</font> Alex started, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""A hot shower, for shtarts.""</font> She smiled at Vladimira, leaning in closely to whisper a hair away from her companion's ear,<font color=""#ed1c24"">""And a lonely gutter can't be a nishe as a warm bed.""</font> She smiled coyly, overwhelmed by a new feeling igniting her blood, stemming straight from her loins. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""But..""</font> She pondered the thought for a moment, pressing her finger to her lips in mock concern, <font color=""#ed1c24"">""It's kind of a small bed, we'd have to.. <span class=""bb-i"">share</span>.""</font> She whispered the last word, as if it were some taboo secret being shared by a seductive minx, who hoped her intentions were very clear. It had been a long time, and the fire starting in her loins seemed ready to consume her.

Vladimira flushed hotly, ""We-well, I don't generally sleep in gutters!"" She stammered, trying to avoid eye contact if possible. She'd never done anything of this nature, if only out of mere lack of interest. 

Damnit. She wasn't drunk enough for this.

She signaled a waitress over and took a drink, fumbling in her pockets for some of the 9mm rounds she'd scavenged earlier. She took the mug and downed the contents without pausing for breath, waiting for a moment until the effects of the drink seemed to reinforce those previous. Taking a deep breath, she flashed a grin at Alex. ""I'd... <span class=""bb-i"">love</span> to share."" She purred.</div>"
140,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-04 21:09:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Day 2 - 1:16 AM</span></div>

Lucania hadn’t been able to sleep. 

Okay. Perhaps that wasn’t being completely candid, she certainly <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have slept, but in point of fact, she had <span class=""bb-i"">chosen</span> not to. The atmosphere of the darkened room was a soothing one, and as she lay, occasionally shifting underneath her sheets, she could unquestionably feel the lull of sleep tugging at her. But her mind, admittedly under the influence, fought, if only to purchase a few more seconds of cognizance.

She knew she was drunk, she didn’t care. Even in the low-light of the golden room, Evelina’s sleeping form was… pleasing.

<span class=""bb-i"">’Dio... Lucy was right, you are creepy...’</span>

N-no! It wasn’t like that! Not entirely, at least. She found the ‘up and down’ of Evelina’s resting form pleasant. A relaxing, natural metronome came in the form of her breathing, carrying a melody that was like something pure and…

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Hmmm?’</span>

She had fangs? Lucania, with willpower she wasn’t aware she possessed, forced herself out of her own bed to move to the edge of Evelina’s. It wasn’t intoxication that pushed her to lean over Evelina’s sleeping form, nor was it purely sexual. It was just as much a natural curiosity, and perhaps even moreso a certain… desire, to be closer to this virgin woman whom she knew nothing about. 

The red head rolled away from her, facing toward the ceiling of the room. Lucania adapted to the change, positioning herself precariously over Evelina’s body, she was practically all on the bed, arched awkwardly over the healer by that point. She couldn’t pretend that positioning wasn’t… <span class=""bb-i"">romantic</span>? That was irrelevant, though, she had come with a purpose! Lucania looked at Evelina’s mouth, they way it curved ever so slightly, the beautiful contrast of the red against her freckled skin in the dark…

<span class=""bb-i"">Stop it. Just look at her canines!</span>

A slight parting in the lips exposed teeth that were, if she had ever seen any, fangs! Probably something to do with her being an Immortal. How had she not noticed them before?

A drunk though came forth, <span class=""bb-i"">You didn’t use any tongue!</span>

She flushed at her own thoughts. She wasn’t entirely wrong… but… should she? Lucania couldn’t shake the thought from her head, a head that <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> subject to the influence of the intoxication... Her lips were <span class=""bb-i"">right there</span>, right? She shouldn’t go back to bed without stealing just <span class=""bb-i"">one more kiss</span>, the two may part ways forever in the morning! It’d be criminal <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> to kiss her again. Lucania leaned in, her heart rate increased, blood left certain areas to travel to… <span class=""bb-i"">others</span>, her arms became weak at the thoughts-- too weak.

One moment, she was balanced over her chest, the next, she had fallen face first into the... ample bosom of Miss Quinn, the space in between the fall and the landing was perhaps one of the fastest shifts Lucania’s eyes went from embarassed cyan to deep purple. She couldn’t pretend like, on some level, she hadn’t wanted just this. She hadn’t ever… <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span>... seen breasts this big before! Lucania wasn’t the most subtle person in Dust, she couldn’t be, her eyes were the ultimate tell. But typically, she’d have shown much greater restraint than this, than to openly relish the opportunity...

<span class=""bb-i"">’So soft...’</span>

Unfortunately, the alcohol still lingering in her system was more than enough to override any commands from her superego. For the now, she was completely content in throwing caution to the wind and falling asleep as she nuzzled against Evelina’s bust.

<div class=""bb-center"">-----</div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Darkness.

A Darkness that could not be penetrated no matter what she did. Her powers didn’t work, nor did any fire she started work. The sun was extinguished, the stars snuffed out like a tiny candle. 

“Who are you?” She asked. Her own voice was almost unrecognizable; a hollow quality to it like an echo. “What do you want?”

The darkness didn’t reply. It was silent, absolute, and all-consuming. But it did take shape. A part of the Darkness solidified, gathering together in a hole in the very fabric of space. What had before been dark now seemed like a mid-day compared to the nothingness in front of her. 

“What are you?” 

The Dark Figure didn’t reply. It moved, then dissolved. Light returned.</span>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">8:43 AM</span></div>

And Evelina woke up. 

She lay on her back, feeling well rested and oddly happy. The dream had been strange, but not frightening. Just… odd. 

Shifting her gaze to the side she noted the red-ish light peeking through the drapes, indicating an early morning. She yawned, and stretched her arms above her head, a motion which brought something else to her attention: The action of stretching her arms caused her bust to move slightly, and, as a direct result, reminded her brain of something touching her bare flesh. 

She looked down, a blush quickly forming on her cheeks. Lucania was lying halfway on top of her, head on her right breast, and one hand snaked up under her shirt and gently holding her left in the palm of her hand. For some reason it didn’t surprise her all that much that Lucania had snuggled up against her during the night, and it was this lack of surprise that—she told herself—was the reason why she didn’t immediately push her away out of shame. 

Instead she brought her left hand—the one not pinned underneath the Sleeping Beauty—to Lucania’s hair, running her fingers through it for a short while, then her cheek; nails dragging lightly across her skin. 

“Mmm… amă…” Lucania muttered something incoherent as the life returned to her. She had a pleasant dream, and despite the headache, she remembered having a pleasant night before it. Something was brushing against her cheek, something else very soft was cupped in her left hand. She remembered her drunken midnight excursion. Her awareness returned to her, and with it, Lucania recalled where she had fallen asleep the night before.

Groggily, filled with equal parts fear, embarrassment, and shame, Lucania risked opening her eyes. Morning light blurred everything, the only thing that was clear to her, as she adjusted from where she had passed out, were those emerald cat eyes, and attached to them a face that seemed bashful, but still smiled.

“Umm…” Lucania brought her hand from under Evelina’s shirt, but otherwise didn’t move. Lucania shuddered, she couldn’t even tell what exactly it was she felt, she just knew she needed to break that silence, “G-good morning...!”

“Morning,” Evelina replied, her gentle smile growing into a teasing smirk. “Couldn’t keep your hands away after all?” She blushed a little deeper at her own comment, but kept at it. “Did you sleep well? Was the pillow soft enough?” She moved a stray lock of hair out of Lucania’s eyes, soon returning to caressing her cheek. 

Lucania’s face was probably a brighter red than Evelina’s hair. “I-I didn’t,” the stroke to her cheek made Lucania shudder further, “I-I mean, initially I was just…” The woman closed her eyes. She was babbling, and close to the point of hyperventilating. Taking in a deep breath, she took a second’s reprieve to regain her composure. 

With a sigh, she began again, “It was lovely, both the sleep and the pillow,” she returned Evelina’s smirk with one of her own, she shook her head, “I suppose this kind of thing is to be expected... you do have me hexxed, after all.”

A small giggle was all the response Lucania got at first, though Evelina did wrap her right hand around her waist, holding her just a tiny bit closer. She was beginning to think that, maybe, Lucania wasn’t as brash as she sometimes seemed to pretend to be, and just being near someone whose company she enjoyed in a more-than-platonic manner, was sometimes enough to elicit reactions or various kinds. 

“Hexed... So you say. I can’t help but wonder if it was perhaps your own decision to come here and fondle me in my sleep, use my breasts as a pillow, and snuggle up against me? I don’t know about you, but I don’t really think I quite possess the powers to make you come into my bed while sleeping.” 

“No… you’re right.” Lucania sighed, savoring the warm fluttering that erupted in her chest as a result of Evelina, “I’m just very…” she searched her mind for the right word, finding herself still muddled with the ghosts of the drink of the night before, “...bold.” That wasn’t quite wrong, but it wasn’t entirely right, either. “I just…” Perhaps she could better articulate her thoughts once the hangover had passed? 

She doubted it. Typically, she could always rely on her eyes to tell the world how she felt, whether she liked it or not…The problem was, they didn’t always make it obvious to <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> how she felt. There was something she wasn’t addressing. Something she had missed last night. What was it? Lucania ran a hand along Evelina’s skin, shifting her position slightly to nuzzle against her neck.

“Please, don’t hesitate to tell me if I’ve been too forward…” she gave single laugh and a slight smile, “I understand it’s very odd to find yourself in the bed of a woman who kissed you under… less than ideal conditions.”

Evelina sighed, shifting a little to get more comfortable, though she still let Lucania lie where she did. It was, after all, very comfortable to have someone snuggled up against her like that, even if she wasn’t going to openly admit it. 

“I won’t lie, Lucania. I think you are being quite forward, and perhaps a little too fast, but… I wouldn’t say that I regret anything from yesterday.” She let out a dry chuckle. “If anything, it actually answers a very old question of mine. See, I never knew what my sexuality was before yesterday, or today even. I had spent too little time with people in my teenage years to ever realise.” 

It was true, she told herself, that she hadn’t really known if she was straight, gay, or bisexual until yesterday. One thing was for certain, she wasn’t straight. <span class=""bb-i"">Bi, perhaps?</span> She shifted again, turning so that she lay on her side, and face to face with Lucania, green and yellow peering at each other. “I wouldn’t mind if we take it slow, if there is to be anything that is, but I still have to ask… is there anything you regret? Or want?” At that, a teasing glint entered her eyes. “Except for a certain somethings underneath my shirt, that is.” 

“A pony.” Lucania answered, she hadn’t even completely registered the question, but her mind was ready to supply an answer. It wasn’t wrong, either, she supposed she <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> rather want an infant equine. “That isn’t very possible though, is it?” Lucania said, “I don’t regret it so much as I… <span class=""bb-i"">lament</span> the fact that I may have tried to use you as a release for all of the...” She tilted her head upward, observing the golden zig-zagging design on the ceiling, “Stress…”
“I’ve been under a lot of pressure lately, and I think I just wanted to get lost in another person…” She sighed, “That’s unfair to you though, for that I would like to apologize.” Her eyes fell back into Evelina’s, cerulean irises became complemented by a clement smile.

“A… pony?” Evelina’s brows bunched together in thought, nose scrunching up as well. “I suppose it isn’t,” she conceded at the end. <span class=""bb-i"">What’s a pony?</span> 

She was silent for a while herself, idly watching Lucania’s near-perfect features, as she looked at the ceiling. Her face took on a hurt look, however, when the reason for the kiss and affection yesterday was brought to the light of day. Her lips pressed into a thin line and she sat up, perhaps a bit too abruptly. 

“I… get that you’ve been under stress,” she said, looking down at the other woman. She wasn’t angry, nor did she look like it. She looked more disappointed than anything. “And I know what it’s like to just want to get rid of it all, but…” She shook her head. “You’re right, it’s been very unfair of you, and yet.” She paused, stopping herself before she said anything she would regret. She continued after a short while, saying, “I won’t pretend to not be hurt that it was all because you wanted to let some steam out, and at the same time I won’t pretend that I honestly hoped—and still hopes—for something. You’re kind, beautiful, intelligent, and the first person I’ve met that hasn’t wanted me only for my body, I feel. Clingy as it may sound, I don’t want to just let you go.” 

“You’re sweet.” Lucania followed Evelina in sitting up, and listened to her response, feeling a wave of different emotions as she spoke. She felt, rightfully so, shame, but also hope, the word ‘kind’ had made her slightly downcast, but as Evelina finished speaking, Lucania felt a tinge of excitement. She hung on Evelina’s final words, ‘I don’t want to just let you go,’ and felt her response slip from her mind to her lips in perfect clarity, “I don’t want to let you go either.”

Her accent perhaps gave the words a tinge of melodrama, the Castalias had a flair for dramatics, but they were also utterly sincere. Lucania <span class=""bb-i"">didn’t</span> want their correspondence to end, plain and simple. She wanted to know more about the seemingly endless altruistic kindness she possesed. She was a drifter, and a doctor of sorts, she offered psychiatric help to distraught strangers in bars and she had the eyes of a cat! She was utterly unique and, quite frankly, dreamy.

<span class=""bb-i"">Was it possible to be handsome and beautiful at the same time?</span>

Yes. Lucania decided, apparently she had already found it in a person. “I am sorry,” Lucania placed a hand atop Evelina’s, “I… Umm, I’m not very good at this, so I apologize if it comes out as garbled,” her heart was fluttering, “this hangover certainly isn’t helping…” she muttered, “Regardless! You seem… wondrous, Miss Quinn, and I would like nothing more than to be honored with the chance to further connect with you… and… to make this all up to you… somehow?”

<span class=""bb-i"">So she realised her mistake,</span> Evelina thought, fighting to not smile yet. <span class=""bb-i"">That’s good.</span> It was a losing battle. A sentence made its way to the forefront of her mind, spoken just scant few moments ago: ‘I don’t want to let you go either’. Such a simple sentence, but a reply to her own statement which, at this point, had utterly defeated any attempt at not smiling. 

She kept her hand where it was, only turning it to grasp Lucania’s hand in a gentle grip. “My name is Evelina, you know. Not Miss anything. I’m only twenty six, and far too young to be called Miss. That aside… If you want to make it up to me,” she leaned closer, almost too little as to go unnoticed. Almost. “Then close your eyes.” 

“My…” Where there had once been only the electric sensation of Lucania’s skin laid atop Evelina, there was a grip. Fear? No, merely registering the new sensation. Evelina made it known she wasn’t a ‘Miss,’ in a manner that was playful, but also… forceful. Lucania’s heart palpitations only increased, she felt blood rush hot across her body. She knew Evelina could see it, that it was probably her whole intent; this was turning her on. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Alright, Evelina.</span>

Lucania wordlessly did as ordered, closing her eyes, transforming the vermillion dawn light into a self-imposed darkness.

About a shade darker and Lucania’s cheeks would be the same shade as Evelina’s hair. Her smile widened and she leaned forward, bringing her unoccupied hand to the other woman’s cheek, and gently caressed it with her thumb. Her eyes fell on the lips now only a few centimetres from her own, pink and full. <span class=""bb-i"">Perfect for kissing.</span> The distance continued to lessen until, finally, their lips met, Evelina pushing forward in a gentle but firm kiss. 

For an obsidian flicker, Lucania was faced with the void. She shuddered at the sensation that brushed its way across her cheek. For some reason, Lucania considered her appearance in the infinitesimal expanse of time that bridged the ecstasy  between merely having her face touched and the vapor inducing experience that came next. The early light gleamed off messy brown hair, her closed eyes were framed with messy eyeliner, a black sleeping gown hung loosely off one shoulder, she didn’t actually remember when she put it on, her complexion, typically olive, was as crimson as the fire in--

Evelina, with a press as light as a feather, locked lips with Lucania. The soft press of skin against her own sent a shock through her being, her heart didn’t just stop-- it melted. Was this how heaven felt? All the time? It had been so long since a sensation filled her with this much giddiness.

<span class=""bb-i"">Salem would be sad to hear that.</span>

Lucania’s mood softened. Why did that have to come up <span class=""bb-i"">now?</span> She wanted to ignore the thought, like swatting away a fly. But she couldn’t stop once she had started, she felt guilt pour in-- as if spending a decade hunting down her killer hadn’t been enough. That feeling of being watched wouldn’t go away over night, no matter how much she drank. She was moving too fast. Lucania pulled away from the kiss, not abruptly, she was still beaming, her eyes were still golden, but there was a slight withdrawal painted across her, a whisper escaped her still parted lips, “...slow.”

Evelina nodded, easily seeing the slight pain on Lucania’s face. For all her bravery and brashness, she was still just a small girl, even if she were more than old enough to be considered adult. The kiss had been just as she imagined it: Soft, warm, and thoroughly pleasant. 

“I know. I want to take it slow myself, but… I wanted to be selfish just this once.” A wry smirk pulled at her lips. “You don’t get to be that often when you’re a healer.” Her arms wrapped around Lucania and drew her into a comforting embrace, holding her in silence as one hand stroked her back. “You okay?” 

“Yes,” Lucania breathed deeply, taking in Evelina’s scent, she sighed. “I’m just a little haunted, I think,” she closed her eyes and gave herself fully into the embrace. She let her statement rest, and simply existed in the silence with her companion, eventually adding an addendum to her statement,  “And perhaps a little hungry...”</div>"
141,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-06 10:00:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The mention of being haunted caused Evelina to tighten the hug just a little. She had a good idea of what it was that haunted Lucania, and why it was in this moment that the memories of it returned. But even those gloomy thoughts couldn’t keep her from chuckling at the completely out-of-place mention of her hunger.

Evelina chuckled, her entire body rocked by her laughter. “I suppose we should go down and get something to eat, then? Or would you prefer to just stay here, take a shower, perhaps? Alone, that is.” <span class=""bb-i"">She smells nice. Of Lilies.</span>

“Hmm…” Lucania tapped a finger against her chin, “Well I certainly need to wash up,” she looked down, “I need to change too…” she scooted off the bed, as she stood, she tilted her head. Apparently her companion had slept in her clothes, “And what of you, my drifter friend? Would you like a... <span class=""bb-i"">fresh</span> outfit?”

It was with some regret that Evelina let go of Lucania, having enjoyed the embrace more than she might have let on. She yawned once and stretched again—arms above her head—then stood up as well. 

“I wouldn’t be opposed to a new set of clothes,” she admitted. “Most of what I have is with my bike, including a few sets of clothes that I’ve gotten over the years… but nothing that’s actually, well, well maintained or new. Most has holes in it.” She grinned bashfully. “I can’t say clothes have been my top priority.”

“A bike?” Lucania posed, scanning the illuminated room with a new days clarity. <span class=""bb-i"">Where was her purse?</span> “And you travel alone?” Found it. It peeked out from under the ruffled golden silk sheets of her long abandoned bed, she went to retrieve it, “I do imagine keeping a full wardrobe must be difficult…” She mused, “Well, feel free to take whatever you’d like from the armoire--” She crossed the room, heading to the restroom, “Although,” she paused in the doorframe, turning with a coy gleam in her eyes, “Do you consider yourself a fan of dresses?”

“Dresses?” She looked slightly perplexed by the suggestion, even the word itself. Her lips pursed, and she idly brushed her hair out with her fingers, though with limited success. “I have nothing against them, and I wouldn’t mind wearing one, so long as—” she poked her chest “—these can stay hidden. That means no exposed back, cleavage or sides. I don’t mind people knowing of them, but I’m not much a fan of displaying them like that.” 

She smiled wrily. “So if you have anything that’s modest and similar to what I described, then I would like to wear one.” 

“Modest…” She tapped her chin in thought again, while she leaned against the doorframe, she was completely oblivious to the nightgown progressively sliding lower and lower down her chest, “I’m sure you’ve already inferred this Evelina, but my profession doesn’t necessitate much modesty…”

Evelina pinched the bridge of her nose between her fingers, shaking her head theatrically. “Modesty is for people who aren’t millionaires, Lucania. Not to mention that I don’t want everyone and their mother to stare at my breasts. I attract enough attention because of my figure, and being Immortal as it is. I don’t need another reason for people to oggle me.” She let her hand fall to her side again, her gaze travelling up Lucania as she did. A very faint smirk tugged at her lips at the sight of the dress gliding down, but she didn’t say anything nor pointed it out. <span class=""bb-i"">Let’s see how she reacts when it falls down completely.</span>

“<span class=""bb-i"">Millionaire!</span>” Lucania gasped, she quickly brought up a hand that hovered lightly over her open mouth, as if she had just said some forbidden word, “I’d like to think my net-worth exceeds one <span class=""bb-i"">billion</span>, with a <span class=""bb-i"">b</span>, at an absolute minimum, Evelina!” The dress slipped far enough down to expose a single breast to the air of the room, in the middle of her dramatic pose, Lucania didn’t notice, “To only have several million bullets to one’s name!” She cried, “How the heart reels!”

She stood in the middle of the doorway, one hand grasping the side of the door for support, the other with it’s back to Lucania’s forehead, when gravity decided to have it’s way with the nightgown, and it promptly fell to the ground, leaving her completely bare.

Lucania yelped, “<span class=""bb-i"">Cazzo!</span>” She didn’t give Evelina time to see the bright blue in her eyes, or the red of her blush. She shot behind the door, but didn’t slam herself in the restroom, instead she peaked out. Although the kneejerk reaction was embarrassment, she couldn’t help but feel as though she was being a tad unfair with her body… she <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> fondled Evelina in her sleep after all, albeit under the influence. Still, the feeling pervaded, if Evelina wanted to see her, then she would let her. She owed that to her. Clearing her mind, she poked her head out from behind the door further, a playful smile slowly appearing, “Dio... I am not taking this very slow at all, am I?”

<span class=""bb-i"">Aaany time now,</span> Evelina thought, not really paying attention to Lucania’s theatrics, more focused on the dress steadily gliding down. It wasn’t that she didn’t care about what she said, but more the fact that she preferred to make sure that she caught the inevitable reaction when the dress finally fell. 

And then it happened. The dress fell, revealing a pair of perky breasts that, in Evelina’s opinion, were much prettier than her own. What followed was a rush of movement as Lucania rushed behind the door to the bathroom, though it was left ajar and not slammed shut. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Perfect.</span> Evelina grinned and, with a thought, dissolved into tiny motes of light, invisible during day time, and rushed through the door, materializing behind the naked woman before she got as far as to look out of the room.

<span class=""bb-i"">”I’m not taking this very slow at all, am I?”</span>

“I suppose not,” Evelina said from behind her, wrapping both arms around her shoulders and leaned forward, hugging her from behind. “But then again, I don’t think I am, either, even if I want to.”

Lucania’s heart practically leaped right out of her ribcage. In all honesty, it might have, if not for Evelina’s hands finding their ways to rest over it first. She didn't have time to scream, the shocked gasp could barely escaped her lips. She was scared, but only for an impossibly small flash of an instant, a flash Evelina somehow managed to shoot behind her in. Was that something else she could do?

All panic subsided in the instant she recognized Evelina’s voice behind her, whispering suggestively. Lucania instead felt comforted with the taller woman wrapping arms around her, it was horrifying, but also slightly… romantic? Perhaps that was the adrenaline that pumped it’s way through her now fidgeting body?

“You are dreadfully lucky I have such good self control,” Lucania sighed, “I could have deafened you just now...”

“You could?” Evelina asked, somewhat perplexed. “I take it your powers are something to do with sound, then?” She let go of Lucania, grabbing her shoulders to turn her around. She didn’t try to hide the cursory glance she gave her, her eyes moving down, then up again with a smile steadily growing on her lips. 

“You don’t have to be ashamed, you know. It’s nothing I haven’t seen before. And if it helps… you’re not <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> a pretty face. A pretty body, too: Healthy, if a bit unfit.” She looked up, a serious look on her face. “You don’t exercise much, do you?” She let go of Lucania and took a step back, her gaze still fixed on the other. “You should.” 

“I-I’ve been busy…” Lucania stammered, “You’re intelligent enough to recognize that establishments like this don’t just spring up overnight.” She began to list things off with her fingers, “There’s resource management, and acquisitions, financing, raw product, muscle… so many people to pay off…” Her blush deepened as she realized she was standing there, stark naked, talking about finer nuances of financing a club. She snatched a towel from a rack, covering her more indecent bits as she held it to her chest, “I’ve just been very busy lately, that’s all...”

“You are right in that my powers are…” She paused, visibly focusing before speaking again, mirroring Evelina’s voice back at her, “...something to do with sound…” She smirked, “大约, my <span class=""bb-i"">Doctor</span>.”

Flabbergasted. A word as good as any to describe the thoughts currently racing through Evelina’s mind. Just being able to produce loud sounds wouldn’t have surprised her, but hearing her own voice when she wasn’t talking was… surreal, for lack of better words. She had to fight not to let her jaw drop at hearing it. 

“Alright. So… Imitation. That’s… freaky.” She gulped, though not quite as one who felt threatened or frightened would. “That is both a neat power, and potentially very abusive.” The surprised look in her eyes shifted to one of scrutiny. She clucked her tongue as she thought over the excuses given. 

“Be that as it may, you still should have had time for half an hour of jogging, a brisk walk, something like that.” She sighed, smiling. “At any rate, you’re still healthy so it’s not a problem yet. Onto another matter, though,” she clapped her hands, “about those dresses? And something that doesn’t display my chest to the world, please.” 

“十分に公平。” <span class=""bb-i"">[Fair enough]</span> Lucania shot back, “しかし。。。あなたが服を脱ぎ場合。その後二つはヌードになる。” <span class=""bb-i"">[However… If you undress. Then Two will be nude.]</span> Lucania whispered, coyly looking down at her body barely hidden by the towel, “セクシー~” <span class=""bb-i"">[S-sexy~]</span> She spoke the word just barely above a breath, she was clearly enjoying the fact the Evelina probably didn’t understand anything that was coming out of her mouth. “そうでないかもしれないあなた。しかし、あなたはいつでも私の胸を表示することができます。” <span class=""bb-i"">[You who may not be so. However, you will be able to display my chest at any time.]</span>

A scowl—if a playful one—spread across her features, pulling her lips down. She had understood just about nothing of what Lucania had said, and decided that now was the time for payback. “Okay. That’s it.” She drew in a deep breath, readying herself. “Phalange, metacarpus, distal phalange, proximal phalange, middle phalange, metacarpal, trapezoid, trapezium, hamate, triquetral, carpus, capitate, scaphold, lunate, radius, ulna, and pisiform.” She glared at Lucania playfully. “Right back at you.” 

“Wh--” Lucania tilted her head at the barrage of medical and anatomical terms both obscure and others. To her, they were like French, well, not entirely, Lucania knew <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> French, what she didn’t know was this <span class=""bb-i"">Doctor speak.</span> What she did gather was that, for reasons of avoiding another Latin word salad, she should probably keep her Aqueon to a minimum. 

“Okay!” Lucania held up a single hand in mock defeat, “I could never find the patience to learn even a little Latin… I’m impressed.” She sighed, “Most of my wardrobe remains in Serenity, but I’m confident I’ve already got something of a selection for me here,” wrapping the towel around her form, she brushed past Evelina, “I’m not sure how practical they are on a bike, but if you do decide you’d like to take one, mind that you don’t cut yourself on the sleeves,” She bent down to turn a dial, water sprang miraculously from a ceiling mounted showerhead, “the blouses too! The ones with frilly longer sleeves… I don’t keep favorites, so take whichever… but I don’t want you to get hurt...”

Evelina grinned victoriously, her face lit up in a childish joy. “You speak some other language, and I barrage you with medical terms. And if you ever get out of hand, I’ll just start to communicate with you. <span class=""bb-i"">In writing.</span>” The last bit was added as a threat, made entirely unconvincing by the all-too-obvious glint of mirth in Evelina’s cat-like eyes. 

“But for the record, I listed the names of the bones in the human hand, wrist, and the two bones from which your lower arm consist of. I hope I didn’t scare you off.” She turned around when Lucania brushed past her, eyes trained on the back of her head—Mostly. 

“Why would I cut myself on your sleeves?” She asked out loud, partly to herself and partly to Lucania. “Also, I think I’d prefer a dress over a blouse. If only to borrow during my stay here.” 

<span class=""bb-i"">She really doesn’t know who I am… Interesting.</span>

“Hmmm,” Lucania sat on the edge of the tub, crossing her legs as pondered on how to go about answering the question. Outright lying would show in her eyes, and Evelina seemed like a perceptive enough woman that she doubted she could get away with a fib even with Standard eyes. The pitter patter of the shower water filled the silence between words, and slowly, the restroom became steamier, Lucania spoke. “Well, I commission my own private line of personal attire, as well as those of the people who work for my family, a staple of my line of clothing is having razor blades sewn into the sleeves.”

“I suppose you saw the effectiveness of such hidden blades yesterday.” Her smile hadn’t faded, but she bit her lower lip, her eyes were… probing, as if attempting to gauge a reaction, “You know, I find it interesting, you conceded a last name the moment I asked, yet you never asked for mine.”

 “It’s true, I did see that,” she mused, pursing her lips in thought. “And I guess it makes sense that the sleeves would be able to cut me if I wore them. But you say it’s a line you commissioned yourself?” <span class=""bb-i"">As I thought. If she has enough money for that, then she’s definitely not your average young woman.</span> 

She shook her head, crossing her arms underneath her bust. “No, I never did. But I have a feeling that it’s a name I know.” She gave a half-smile. “There are too many things pointing towards you not being your average girl. ‘Practically owning’ this bar, being able to enter a suite such as this without asking anyone, and having your own line of clothes commissioned. That, and the fact that they are so open towards Immortals here, adds up to quite a bit more than an average girl.” Her half-smile became a full one in the end, if only to show that she didn’t think any less of her for holding secrets, or for not being ‘normal’. 

“But let me ask then: What <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> your last name, Lucania?” 

“Believe it or not, I actually <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> like to take a shower at some point,” Lucania chided. There had been an amusement on her face though, that didn’t fade with the comment, if anything, her mirth increased with the coy dodge. The woman sighed theatrically, tossing her head back, almost into the streaming water. While one hand was used for balance, the other pulled down on the towel just slightly, enough to tease from where she sat, but only a shade more skin than she’d been showing a moment before. Lucania pouted, “Have I gone and ruined my own allure?” 

“You’re the one who keeps talking,” Evelina pointed out. “So if you want that shower, you could just ask me to leave.” She tactfully ignored the teasing display, acting as if she either hadn’t noticed, or didn’t faze her. “And no, you haven’t lost your allure. You’re just as pretty as when I met you. Although that doesn’t mean that I’ll shower with you, if that’s what you’re asking.” She smiled somewhat apologetically. “Regardless of what we think of each other, we’ve <span class=""bb-i"">only</span> just met last night.” 

She turned on her heel and went for the door, heading back into the bedroom part of the apartment, or room. She wasn’t quite sure what to call it, given its size. Before she fully exited, however, she looked back. “Also, where do I find the dresses? A wardrobe or something?” <span class=""bb-i"">And nice dodge, Lucania. But you’re not getting away with it. Something’s fishy, and I can’t help but feel that she’s deliberately teasing me.</span>

Lucania held a hand to her heart, in mock injury, “Shower together?” she gasped, “Goodness! You’ve already seen my unmentionables! If we showered together you’d have an intimate knowledge of my rituals—there would be nothing left to show!” She giggled, “Well…” She thought out loud, “I suppose there’s always intimate discussion of Old World literature…”

<span class=""bb-i"">Yes, The Odyssey, The Secret Doctrine, Ulysses, and each salvaged copy of ‘Horse Mag Monthly’</span>

“A haha...ha…” Lucania rolled her eyes at the absurdity of her own thoughts, “I suppose that wouldn’t do for the now though, would it?” She said to Evelina, leaning toward the door, “It should be a walk in closet, through the door that we <span class=""bb-i"">didn’t</span> come in last night.”

“You’re incorrigible,” Evelina muttered, suppressing a chuckle. “Anyway, thanks, I’ll go see about finding something to put on.” She closed the door behind her, already looking for said walk-in closet before it had even clicked shut. <span class=""bb-i"">Reminds me… what even is a walk-in closet?</span>

It was a question she repeated a number of times as she walked towards a pair of wooden double doors. She’d only ever had a normal closet with shelves and coat hangers, so perhaps a walk-in closet was something big enough that you could stand in it? <span class=""bb-i"">It’d make sense,</span> she thought, reaching out for the handles. <span class=""bb-i"">I mean, it’s only a closet, it can’t be that b—</span> She stopped, mouth agape at the sight before her. She had opened the closet and, having expected nothing more than something perhaps twice as big as her own back in Parkland, felt a shock of awe rush over her. 

“Yes. Yes it can be that big,” she muttered, walking into what could only be described as an entire room filled with coat hangers; dresses, skirts, blouses, and a multitude of other articles. It might not have been bigger than a small bathroom, but it was still gigantic compared to what a closet usually was. “I don’t even want to think how much all of this costs.” She gulped and, carefully, stepped in and started perusing the lines upon lines of clothing, looking for something that was relatively modest while not being overly prudent; there was a reason she usually wore tight clothes, after all. For even if she didn’t want to show off, she was not afraid or ashamed of her own appearance.

<div class=""bb-center"">-----</div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">9:37 AM</span></div>

It took upwards of twenty minutes before she finally found something that would fit her, both in size and taste. <span class=""bb-i"">Much better than that blue one… How does she even hide her breasts in that thing! The chest was hardly covered at all.</span> 

She stepped out of the closet and held up <a href=""http://cdn.bridalbrid.com/images/images.freemans.com/is/image/OttoUK/cloudzoom/Together-Long-Sleeved-Maxi-Dress~64K374FRSP.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">a long, red dress.</a> <span class=""bb-i"">It’s nice.</span> It seemed thin enough to hug someone’s upper body, while staying loose from the hips down, but even then never coming to the point where it was like a second skin. 

Another few minutes passed of her shrugging off her jeans and T-shirt, replacing them with the dress. Like she had been instructed she was careful not to cut herself on the sleeves, using a thin barrier to prevent any damage to her hands or wrists. Once done she turned to the mirror situated on the inside of the door to the closet, looking herself over. <span class=""bb-i"">All I need,</span> she thought, <span class=""bb-i"">is to get my hair brushed, and I… would actually look very good. Although.</span> Her eyes lowered from her reflection’s face to her chest, grimacing slightly. <span class=""bb-i"">It was the highest cut she had. Everything else was lower, except for the blouses. And with my… size, it looks even bigger.</span> 

The thought of changing into a blouse crossed her mind but she drowned it out. She did prefer dresses over blouses, and it wasn’t as if she was <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> annoyed or embarrassed over herself. She could live with it.

<div class=""bb-center"">-----</div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">9:39 AM</span></div>

Lucania sighed. She’d finished any washing she needed to devote muscular energy toward several minutes ago, nearly 20 minutes ago, in fact. For the better part of the last half hour, she had just let the warm water pour over her, simply streaming down her body at this juncture, as if it was an endless commodity and not some desperately needed luxury. The comfort Lucania felt here was never one of a physical cleansing, she wasn’t like Evelina. She showered daily-- only several times in her life had she ever let the filth of Dust accumulate on her physical form. Vain as it may have been, yesterday was the only notable instance in recent memory where Lucania could recall being unpresentable due to filth and gore, and that had been remedied almost immediately after. 

The thing Lucania gained from showers wasn’t physical cleansing. It was this… gestalt spiritual and mental cleansing. Each droplet started its journey when propelled from the faucet, with it’s brethren, like the meteors that had once ended the world. They joined at her head, made their way past closed eyes, hair laced in daisies, and absorbed the stresses that seemed to lay just underneath the surface of where they rolled toward the drain. The light drumming of the artificial rain drowned out the sounds of the world, warmth felt as though it was transferred directly into her soul with each tap of the world’s clear ichor against her skin, the fog would often become so thick that she would be left with no choice but to close her eyes and be faced with her thoughts, alone in a welcoming void. She rather enjoyed the opportunity.

She knew, of course, that she couldn’t stay in the shower forever. But it was a valuable reflection time. It was self reflection and assessment, as well as time to allow her mind to wonder poetically, to ponder spirituality and philosophy and simply review her plans for the future. Lucania supposed it could be considered kin of a kind of meditation, where the emphasis was on going to the places in one’s mind where the world normally barred them from going.

Today, she had spent a good amount of time thinking of her dream from the night prior. It hadn’t been the one she had become accustomed to, there were no horses. No, she’d simply held a conversation with mother… <span class=""bb-i"">Rita</span>. She couldn’t remember the full conversation… but naturally, she had come to the interpretation that this oneirological shift represented some change. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Listen:

The dreams that had persisted for the last few years were unpleasant ordeals, not quite nightmares, but unpleasant. They all had this in common, this, and thematic similarities, they were always <span class=""bb-i"">always</span>, the observation of some biblical apocalypse, with myself taking part in some way, typically through becoming an avatar of death. But that  brings up a third similarity, one very specific and striking commonality-- I had never started the dreams as death, ever. No, without fail, Rita always rode in on the Pale Horse.

That sick, chlorine hued horse.

In Christian Mythos, the rider of the Pale Horse was death personified, and death for all followed. I’m not death, not in these dreams, I was merely the daughter of death inheriting a role. At least, that’s how I interpreted it. Death was mother. In Old World Tarot, the card ‘Death,’ above all else, represented change. Change... be it positive or negative…

Like yesterday! 

The death of Adam Worth, the first romantic connection I’ve made since…

That’s what Rita was talking about last night. I know it. She was reaching out to me. Something snapped yesterday, an unseen catalyst is bringing about change to all of Dust…

...Or, peradventure I’m reading too deep into all of this.</span>
Peradventure. Still, it was something to keep eyes open for, even if her mother’s spirit wasn’t reaching out to her with messages from the ether. Lucania sighed again. She was beginning to prune, she needed to leave the shower soon. Reaching down, she turned the dial, and couldn’t help but feel a tinge of regret as the water slowly became nothing for than a trickle.

<span class=""bb-i"">The next Jean-Paul Marat…</span>

Lucania chuckled to herself as she began to dry off. If she was Marat… Oh dear, was Evelina her assassin Charlotte de Corday? Well, Lucania supposed if she was, she’d missed her opportunity to create the ‘Death of Castalia,’ complete with her blood flowing down the drain as the showerhead continued to bathe her corpse…

<span class=""bb-i"">Manache! She’d completely forgotten--</span>

The Aqueons! She needed to get to Tas later today, she’d been enlisted to ‘negotiate’ with the River Dragon Triad. She hadn’t even thought of it since yesterday morning. Lucania mentally scolded herself, she made an effort to dry herself off faster, hiding her hair in one towel she wrapped her body in another. There was still so much she needed to do here! There were bound to be reactions from the Winged Guardians that she needed to deal with AND there was the matter of finding an Immortal willing to champion a duel for her AND--

Her stomach growled.

Right, health first. Lucania tip toed over to the restroom door, cracking it open slightly she found herself taken aback at the sight of Evelina in the carmine gown. Lucania’s lips parted in a dazed 
smile, “I-I thought you didn’t want anything that… Umm... low cut?”

Evelina found herself blushing, hand shooting up to cover her chest before she even realised the futility of the action. Sighing, she let her arms fall to her side, a slightly perturbed expression on her face. “This was the one with the highest cut you had. On a normal person it wouldn’t be so bad, but on me… it’s a different story. And I’m not really a fan of blouses. A dress is far prettier, I think.” 

Despite her bashfulness, she twirled around, arms spread wide, and asked. “So, what do you think? Aside from having to brush my hair, that is. Does it look good, or should I pick something else?” 

“<span class=""bb-i"">Good?</span>” Lucania threw open the door, moving to circle around Evelina in wide-eyed abandon, towelhead and all, “You look like… what Old World royalty must have looked like,” Lucania’s eyes tinged with a slight green, “when they weren’t getting beheaded, that is…” She muttered to herself. “Still,” Her eyes shifted to match the golden glow of the sun, “you look fantastic… far <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> fantastic for this locale,” She scowled at the thought, “Are there even any establishments built for such a purpose as an early brunch around here?”

<span class=""bb-i"">Now who’s a shameless flirt.</span> “Thanks,” Evelina said earnestly, cheeks tinted red and eyes glowing with a mixture of pride and glee. She doubted Lucania knew just how much a compliment like that meant to her. “It’s nice to know that someone thinks I look good.” She didn’t even register the mention of royalty getting beheaded, her subconsciousness deciding that such a phrase could go unheard without any lasting repercussions. 

“Truth be told, I do think it’s a really nice dress, and even if it’s a bit tight in some places, it’s a comfortable wear, too. But… still doesn’t mean you’re not overdoing it. I don’t look <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> good, as to be ‘far too fantastic for this locale.’” She stopped then to consider the question posed. Was it really possible to get an early brunch here? She didn’t know, having never been here before. “I don’t really know. I—” There was a knock on the door. 

Three crisp knocks echoing off the wooden surface.</div>"
142,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-08 01:13:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">“I’ll get that,” Evelina announced, already striding towards the door. She opened the door, her eyes first getting caught by the penetrating stare originating from a dark skinned woman with short, curly hair. Her scrutinizing glare was aimed at an even more peculiarly looking woman. If there was one word that would aptly describe this woman, it was Purple. Her hair, falling down to her middle back, was a dark purple, with her eyes being coloured a lighter shade. Her lips were also adorned by the same purple colour as her hair, as were her nails; long and well maintained. 

She wore a black, knee-long skirt and a white shirt which was neither loose nor tight. In her hands were a large silver platter filled with various kinds of fruit, waffles, pancakes, and an assortment of other breakfast products. 

None of what she wore or held was what Evelina was focused on, however. Instead she simply held the gaze of the newcomer, lips parted and eyes wide in surprise.

“Octavia?!” She exclaimed in an excited voice. “What’re you doing here?” 

The purple haired woman—Octavia, as was her name—grinned where Evelina stood dumbfounded. “Hi Evelina! I see you’ve finally gotten brave enough to show ‘em off to the world? Anyway, I was supposed to give this to Miss Castalia. I was told she’d be staying here with a guest. Imagine my surprise when I found it was you!” She giggled, taking a step forward in a silent request for entry, one which Evelina complied with and stepped back. 

She was about to just call for Lucania when she had an idea. Octavia had said “Castalia,” and while she wasn’t much interested in politics or the great companies in Dust, she had heard of one infamous family: The Castalias. Said to be the largest mafia organization in the entire continent, an accomplishment that was nothing to sneeze at. 

She smiled faintly and, looking over her shoulder, called. “It’s breakfast, Miss Castalia.” The casual way with which she just called for Lucania earned her a dissatisfied glare from the dark woman, but she didn’t notice. 

“I haven’t requested any…” Lucania had ducked into the closet, taking the opportunity to change out of the towels into a more proper outfit. The <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/RgJw5Il.jpg?1"" rel=""nofollow"">Blue Velvet dress</a> she had thrown on contrasted the mature red gown Evelina had chosen, it was one of the few dresses Lucania owned that didn’t reach to the ground, it spoke of a certain youth in it’s design with a color that carried with it sophistication. Lucania peeked out of the closet the same second Evelina finished her statement with ‘Miss Castalia.’

<span class=""bb-i"">A development!</span>

“<span class=""bb-i"">Yeeeessss?</span>” Lucania sang, practically floating across the room. Her grin could only be described as ‘coquettish’, her eyes were focused completely on Evelina, perhaps reading her face for emotion, and she moved with the gaiety of a ballerina. She came to a stop with a slight bounce at Evelina’s side by the door. She gushed at the smell of the meal, her eyes flicked from Evelina to the very… <span class=""bb-i"">purple</span>… woman, undeniably attractive, with which she was conversing, “And whom does Miss Castalia have to thank for such a generous delivery?”

“Princess,” Octavia said sweetly, curtseying as best she could still with the tray on her hands. “The meal was sent by the chef himself as soon as he heard of your presence. There was no ordering necessary, and it is on the house.” Evelina took the tray from Octavia and carried it inside and onto a table, returning shortly thereafter, a time during which Octavia had said nothing.

“How come you’re here, Tavi?” Evelina asked when she returned. 

“I work for the Castalia Family in this establishment. Bar maid, waitress, dancing, and the occasional singing… I’m still practicing on that. I’m not that good yet.” She looked exasperated for all but a single second. “What about you? I didn’t expect your to be in the same room with the Heiress?” 

<span class=""bb-i"">Heiress?</span> Emerald eyes flicked to Lucania, searching. She was met with a coquettish expression and a pair of golden eyes looking back at her. <span class=""bb-i"">She’s the Bloody Sleeves? ...Can’t say I expected that.</span> 

“Anyway, it’s good to see you again. I need to go. Oh, and Princess?” Her purple gaze shot to the blue-dressed woman, an impish smile on her face. “Take good care of Tits McGee here, she’s a nice girl. Now, if you’ll excuse me.” She curtseyed again and backed out the door, closing it after her.

“I still hate that nickname…”

“Hmmm…” Lucania leaned against Evelina’s shoulder from where they stood in the doorway, further increasing their height difference, “neither do I, if we’re being completely transparent.” A hand traced its way up Evelina’s back, rubbing red fabric, getting tangled in wild red hair, “How about this; I can promise I won’t use yours if you don’t use mine?” She tilted her head upwards, looking simultaneously cutesy and pleading into Evelina’s eyes.

Evelina chuckled, well aware of the hand on her back and in her hair.She didn’t mind the proximity, but despite the pleasantness of it all she couldn’t push away the doubt nagging at her: Was it really okay? Lucania had expressed clear concerns about going too fast, for reasons as of yet unknown to Evelina. The pleading, and just plain adorable, expression on Lucania’s youthful face elicited a giggle from the taller woman, who then wrapped her arm around her waist. 

“Speaking of nicknames,” she said, leading them into where she had set the tray of food. “I know you’re the Bloody Sleeves.” She looked down at Lucania. “I’m not going to say anything about it, lecture you, or make demands. I just want you to know that I’m aware of it, so you don’t have to hide it.” Letting go of Lucania, she started pouring a couple glasses of juice for them, handing one of them to the other. “And don’t worry, I don’t think any less of you for it.” She smiled sweetly at that, as if saying that it didn’t change what she thought of her. 

“Really?” Lucania tilted her head as she followed Evelina’s lead, she didn’t make any attempt to hide the skepticism in her voice, “The altruistic wayward healer has <span class=""bb-i"">no</span> moral qualms with practically being tricked into the bedroom of bloodiest mafia enforcer in the history of Dust? It’s quite alright, if we’re to continue our correspondence then I’d like to get everything in the open now, I don’t want you to have any regrets...”  

“Dio…” Lucania crossed her legs when she took her seat, a mild look of disgust crossed her face as she swirled the juice around in the ornate glass, “He knows I prefer my Italian roast… Perhaps I’ll take an eye for this absolutely horrid indiscretion…?” After letting the comment hang in the air, she cast an amused glance at Eveline, “Joking!”

“Bad joke,” Evelina said, an amused sort of exasperation in her voice. “But if I am to be honest? Let’s just say that… Looks can be deceiving.” She let that hand in the air for a while, sipping at her own juice. It had been far too long since she’d actually had any. Her twentythird birthday, was it? <span class=""bb-i"">That’s a long time ago.</span>

Forcing her mind away from the topic of juice, she returned to the more important one: Whether or not she actually did have qualms about Lucania being the Bloody Sleeves. If she just looked at her, with the morning sun peeking in through the windows and surrounding her head in a halo of light, all she saw was a beautiful young woman who had seen both sides of life: The good and the bad. When first she’d met her she was close to breaking, and at a point where she desperately needed help before she did something she truly would regret. That that help had only needed to be someone who would listen was just a happy coincidence. 

Evelina had, for better or worse, just seen someone who needed a friend to talk to, and had found in her a new friend—and perhaps more. If one didn’t know of her alias, or what her name was, she was simply a kind soul who had been wounded, and had taken that hurt out on others. But now that it was over, now that the debt had been paid…

She sighed, setting the glass back onto the table and folding her hands in her lap. “I can’t pretend that I’m not a little… uncertain. I wasn’t tricked into this room, mind you. While I was under the influence I have a bit higher tolerance than you, and had had less, so I was still in full control of myself. I had begun to like you so I didn’t mind sharing a room with you for the night. That you’re the ‘bloodiest mafia enforcer in Dust’ isn’t true. At least, that’s not all you are, is what I mean. You’re also, as I said earlier today, both kind and intelligent. You’re no simple grunt who obeys the commands blindly without ever making decisions of your own.” She leaned back in her chair, feline eyes giving Lucania a hard look, as if daring her to disagree. “I’ve only known you for a short while, but I refuse to believe that you’re just a common murderer. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t agree with taking lives, but it’s not something you’ve done simply for the sake of doing it.” 

“Father would certainly prefer if I did,” Lucania scoffed, raising the glass to her lips, she opted to try the juice before continuing—<span class=""bb-i"">certainly fresh</span>—she set down the glass. With its clink on the table, Lucania was forced to process Evelina’s comments, the observations, and the, in her own opinion, astute compliments.  “I…” Lucania’s voice cracked, she lost her voice in the prodding and slightly hypnotic gaze across from her, “I appreciate it.” Her own gaze became downcast. She was ashamed, of what, though? 

The word ‘grunt’ continued to ring in her ear.

“Your words are very kind, and I do appreciate them. I recognize that there is even some truth in them,” pained azure flickered into her irises, “that doesn’t mean the contrary is untrue, however.” A sigh followed, “I’m <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> some simple grunt or a common murderer,” bringing her eyes back to Evelina’s, she managed to summon a small, defeated smile, “I’m my <span class=""bb-i"">father’s</span> grunt, my <span class=""bb-i"">family’s</span> murderer… I apologize if this sounds pseudo-intellectual, but at least a common killer has <span class=""bb-i"">agency</span>, I’m nothing more than a puppet aware of it’s strings.”

A grimace swept across Evelina’s face, staying there for far longer than she liked. This wasn’t what she had wanted to hear, at all. <span class=""bb-i"">Turns out I can’t fix everything just because I’m a healer.</span> She shut her eyes, hiding the piercing gaze from the world, her hand rising to rub her temple. 

She sat like that for several minutes, silent, and with eyes closed the entire time. When she opened them again they were both defeated, but also determined. The look in her eyes spoke of a sheer stubbornness that was unknown even to herself. “I am… powerless to do anything, for once,” she said. “My hands are tied and, as much as I would like the opposite, I can’t change it.” She sighed, her gaze fixated on Lucania’s now; a look that demanded her full attention. “But, you can still do something. I’m not able to do anything to change your position, but nor can you change yours. I want you to promise me two things. One: The victims are not innocent. I doubt that anyone who really gets in the way of the Mafia are innocent, but I want to be certain nonetheless. Two: Whoever they are, it’s as quick and painless as possible. I can’t stop them dying, but perhaps their death can be as painless as possible.” 

She let out another sign, which preceded a snarling face of anger; lips pulled back to reveal her fangs. “I <span class=""bb-i"">hate</span> murder!” She exclaimed loudly, turning her head towards the windows. 

She was silent for a while, saying nothing. In the end, however, she was the one to break the silence. “I’m sorry. I’m not angry at you, but the circumstances. You didn’t ask to be who you were, so I can’t blame you for what you’ve been forced to do. Just… Please don’t think I’m angry with you.” 

Lucania remained calm through the response, even Evelina’s outburst, and found that as she finished, she wasn’t feeling the sadness she had felt earlier. Instead she felt sympathy, perhaps even a little anger at the situation she found herself needing to sneak around in to influence even slightly.

“<span class=""bb-i"">‘Go out of your way to make a friend instead of an enemy.’</span>” Lucania quoted to Evelina, contemplation spread across her face, “Do you know who once said that?” 

“Can’t say I do. Who?” 

“Murray Humphreys.” Lucania said, reaching to pile the assorted pastries on her plate, “He wasn’t some Old World saint, if you can believe that. He and I actually share a profession! He’s perhaps my favorite figure in organized crime from the twentieth century,” Lucania cast something of a sidelong glance, “I know that isn’t exactly the <span class=""bb-i"">biggest</span> honor to hold… But none-the-less! How he operated inspires me.”

“I won’t say that I <span class=""bb-i"">hate</span> murder, Evelina. I just spent the last 10 years of my life hunting for an Immortal raping degenerate, I will never regret it, he gave up his humanity and I put him down. Some will call that murder, and that’s fair. The point is, I don’t see it as something so simple to despise…” She took a bite of an apple, “However…” 

Evelina held up a hand to stall Lucania for a moment, saying. “In the case of this Adam, I have to agree with you. That is one death I don’t hate.” She waved her hand, motioning for her to continue. 

Lucania swallowed, “I’m pleased you agree…” She let the comment hang for a moment before continuing, “You should know that I orchestrated it all in secret. That my family didn’t approve the risk involved. My father least of all…” Lucania sighed, “I hope, dearly, that history will remember me as someone like Humphreys, as someone whose strength was through shrewd thinking and diplomacy as opposed to… Machiavellian fear. But my family is full of hedonists who don’t see the value in that road, they approve pointless death so long as they can feast on steak for dinner and whores for dessert…” Lucania leaned on an arm, her gaze went to the sunny window.

Her voice took on a jovial and masculine Italian tone, “‘Why pay off someone when you can just kill them, princess?’” Lucania turned away from Evelina hard, hiding the scowl across her lips, “<span class=""bb-i"">Legacy,</span> father!” Lucania closed her eyes in frustration.

“I apologize for that…” Lucania was still visibly shaking, resentment was unmistakably present in her eyes, “Rest assured, Evelina, <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> am not a supporter of the Castalia attitudes toward murder.”

A faint smile pulled at Evelina’s lips, a mixture of sadness and joy. “I’m glad to hear that. Really. It makes… a lot of things a lot easier. It gives me hope that, when you take the lead, you’ll employ more humane methods. I do not condone crime, but from what I know of the Castalia family it’s more of a business than a crime, so I guess I can let it slide.” Despite the severity of the situation, she couldn’t help but add in a little joke there in the end, a tiny bit of mirth twinkling in her eyes as she said it. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Truth be told I’d rather she wasn’t involved at all, but her staying with the family is the best chance it has for becoming something better than a simple crime organization. I trust that she’ll be able to lead it onto a better track.</span> She reached out and grabbed an apple from the tray, using her fangs to rip out a large chunk of it. 

“Nine-tenths legal for over 50 years!” Lucania declared, a sarcastic smile matching her tone. Her attention turned to eating for a moment, when, out of her subconscious, a question occurred to her. Lucania cleared her throat, “Soo… <span class=""bb-i"">Why</span> a travelling doctor?”

A delicate eyebrow rose at the question, followed by an expression of surprise. “Hadn’t expected that question.” She tore another chunk off the apple, chewed and swallowed. “An easy question to answer, really. It all started in my early to mid  teens or so, when my mom and dad started talking about what I should be when I grew up. My mom suggested I be a cook like her, but despite being only a bit above average it wasn’t really possible. That, and I wasn’t all that enthusiastic about it. Cooking was fun and all, but I didn’t want to do it for a living.” 

“My dad, however, was a Wing—and don’t say he’s like the others. He kept another Wing from shooting me after I became an Immortal. He’s the only reason I’m alive, and he doesn’t fear nor think any less of any Immortals.” Her normally gentle eyes turned hard for only a second, a warning look, telling her not to say anything untowards or judgemental about her father. It then disappeared just as quickly as it had appeared. “He gave me my gun, ammo, the bike, and my sword.” She motioned towards the bedroom door where her bag could only just be spotted, the holster for her gun and the scabbard with her sword as well. ”He was the one who made sure I had enough to survive on my own before he let me go. He knew I wouldn’t be allowed back into the city. But that’s beside the point. I admired the way he protected people and kept order. I don’t think he ever took a life, only ever immobilizing with a shot to the leg or something similar.” An expression best described as nostalgic swept onto her face. “He protected people, and I wanted to do the same. But… I’m not exactly big, and not strong enough to become a Wing myself. So I thought to myself, why not help the people who had already gotten hurt when I couldn’t stop them from getting hurt?”

“So I buried myself in books. Everything from how to set a bone or perform CPR, to advanced surgeries. I learned everything I could on my own until I reached an age where I could get a formal education. It took some four years, would’ve probably taken more if I hadn’t read all those books beforehand, and then I just… worked. I remember one time a young boy and girl had come in with a broken hand and shin respectively.” She chuckled. “Their cheeks were redder than my hair when I asked them to tell me what happened. Turns out a new ‘position’ wasn’t the best idea after all.” Another sigh, this one nostalgic. “But then I became an Immortal, two years after I finished my education. That’s two years ago, by the way. As I mentioned, he gave me the bike, my gun, and some supplies, and like that I just… drove away. I’ve sent them letters every one or two weeks ever since then, so they know I’m fine.” 

She fell silent, the last bit hanging in the air as she debated with herself if she should—<span class=""bb-i"">Sure. Why the heck not.</span> “There is also another reason. I want… the world to see that we Immortals aren’t all to be feared. It’s true that we have the power to bend the world to our will, but even then we are still humans and not someone to be feared. The only thing that’s changed about me since then is that I look different.” 

“Is that truly fair to say, though?” Lucania shot back, “I’m confident that you’ll remain this optimistic about the Immortal condition, but how does the average Motum Diversum citizen? You have a professional knowledge of human anatomy, theoretically you can give yourself a practical immunity to bullets with those walls you can create, and you can teleport behind someone faster than they can see. Sure, today you want to be a doctor, but what if tomorrow you decide you’ve really wanted to be an assassin your whole life?” Lucania leaned back, “I think you have a good heart, Evelina. You’ve demonstrated that to me. Immortal or not, you are very clearly a good person...”

Lucania sighed, “But that isn’t something everyone can reasonably assume… Not today, not ever in history, really. See, I don’t think it’s the <span class=""bb-i"">power</span> that they fear. People have been dealing with both <span class=""bb-i"">things</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">other people</span> more powerful than them for millennia. People have a tendency to <span class=""bb-i"">respect</span> power, and the Edenites show us they’ll even go so far as to <span class=""bb-i"">worship</span> it.” Lucania laughed to herself, “While you were reading all those practical medical books I was wasting my time on Old World journals and historical tomes…” She leaned back in, continuing with her point, “People don’t fear you because of those adorable eyes of yours, they fear what the eyes represent. They fear you because you <span class=""bb-i"">are</span> different, if only slightly, you represent an unknown. Now, Immortals aren’t a united front--”

<span class=""bb-i"">Thank Dio</span>

“So each individual isn’t part of some larger group with power. People become scared when they see that you have the eyes and the fangs, and they don’t know what else changed. You’re an unpredictable individual, with fantastical powers unknown, part of a disparate group of people whom are all easy to stereotype.” Lucania shrugged, “Aaaand historically, people tend to <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> like having groups to discriminate against...” Their eyes met, “I’m not being cynical. I think Dust needs people like you if attitudes are ever going to change… But you have to understand, people don’t avoid your medical services and call you mutie because they think you have power, they do it because they fear you, they do it because, to them, you aren’t a person. There is an encouraged view to see Immortals as this unchained dog that needs to be put in its place.” 

Lucania’s smile widened as she gave the perfect ‘barking’ sound.

The words stung. Like a wasp’s sting or, better yet, a sword through her gut, they pierced through her doing damage wherever they could. Her head hung low, casting her face in a shadow. Her teeth gritted and her hands clenched so hard that her nails dug painfully into her palms, almost piercing the skin. <span class=""bb-i"">It never ends, does it?</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Different.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Discriminate.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Thing.</span>

Who had she been trying to fool? ‘The universe repeats itself.’ That is what they all say, so why should she be any different? She was bound to be ostracized, it was her lot in life after all, was it not? <span class=""bb-i"">What made me think that this was any different?</span> She raised one hand up to her chest, forcing herself to make the movement seem composed. She placed the hand against her chest, the difference in size between hand and breast becoming immediately evident. 

“Why did I ever try to fool myself,” she said, her voice being that of someone who had just given up. Hot tears started leaking from her eyes. “It’s always the same, isn’t it? Always discriminated, always different, always looked upon as something to be mocked, hunted, or beaten.” She lowered her voice to just above a whisper. “Is a normal life really too much to hope for?” 

“No, I don’t suppose it is,” resting her elbows on the table, Lucania locked her fingers, creating something of an organic mask to hide any expressions her mouth might betray. All she allowed Evelina to see were her eyes, their critical gaze was almost appraising, as if she were in the middle of some negotiation. Lucania spoke slowly, “But I don’t believe for a second that you want what’s normal, Evelina.”

Lucania clasped her hands together, “You only half answered my question before; Why are you a wandering doctor?” She let the saddened woman process what she meant before continuing, “You told me why you were a <span class=""bb-i"">doctor</span>, but you didn’t tell me why you wander. Not entirely, at least.” Lucania preempted a counter-statement, “You could have led a peaceful existence in Isolone as a nurse, you could have had the teeth removed, or relocated to Serenity…” Lucania’s words were calculated, she wasn’t just talking to Evelina anymore, her next words were a test, “Where are you from? We hold influence with the Gaens, Aqueons, and every Motum Diversum city. All it would take is calling in one favor, <span class=""bb-i"">one</span>, and you could have a quiet, peaceful, <span class=""bb-i"">normal</span> life, but only if that’s what you really want. Is it?”

Anger, a sort of betrayal, rose in Evelina. Who was she, this spoiled child who had been given almost everything she asked for, to judge her? To make such assumptions as to say she didn’t actually want a normal life? Of course she did, who wouldn’t? A life of solitude, of ostracization, wasn’t something anyone wanted. She opened her mouth to reply, to say that a normal life was all she had ever really dreamt of but stopped herself. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Was it? Is it?</span>

As Lucania had said she should have had her teeth removed, but even then that wouldn’t have done anything about her eyes. Isolone, too, was just a random city without anything to it, at least not as far as she knew. It was, to her knowledge, as discriminating towards Immortals as every other place. 

She looked up, meeting that calculating, judging gaze of Lucania’s. “Did I want a normal life when I was all but kicked out of my home? Yes. Do I want a normal life now? The answer to that question is also yes. I am a woman who was bullied and mocked for the majority of my teen years, all because my breasts grew a little too quickly, a little too big. For the past two years now I’ve been a drifter, a person who wanders Dust because I have no other place to go, and because I want to show people that just because I’m different it doesn’t mean that I’m something to be afraid of, or to be ridiculed.” 

She wiped the tears from her eyes, the green orbs becoming steely. “There is, however, one question you didn’t ask. Do I want to give up my current life? The answer to <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> is no. I have spent too much time, too much effort, and fought far too much to get through all the shit the world put me through, and I’m not about to let all of that effort go to waste. I do want a normal life, but it’s not something I can get. So why do I drift? Because that is what my life is.” She sighed. “Although… perhaps you’re right. I don’t want a normal life, I just want a life where I’m not feared. If I’m thought of as a person instead of a monster or a target, then that’s all I really want.” 

“I apologize if I’ve come off as… cruel,” concern became intertwined as Lucania said the words, she wanted to reach out and brush away the tears, instead, she restrained herself, “There is a reason I prodded you to say that, that you didn’t want a normal life, Evelina.” Lucania sighed. The breakfast was getting cold, it was hardly a major concern, but the thought crossed Lucania’s mind nonetheless, “You said it yourself before, really, that you want something <span class=""bb-i"">better</span> than normal. That you don’t just want a life free of fear for yourself, you want that for <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> Immortals. You want that for the <span class=""bb-i"">world</span>, and you’ve worked for it! I have no doubt you’ve changed the minds of a few bigots with your kind demeanor and dedication to non-violence…” 

<span class=""bb-i"">History repeats itself…</span>

“...indeed it does…” Lucania muttered to herself, she tapped the table with a finger, eyes lost in thought, clearly sculpting an idea, “Sorry. I just mean to say, that, I’m not trying to discourage you Evelina… Quite the contrary, actually!” Lucania tilted her head slightly, a delicate smile forming as she spoke, “You’ve traveled and seen harsh realities, but you <span class=""bb-i"">still</span> want to fight to make things better, much better than whatever ‘normal’ may be.” Lucania’s demeanor was calm, she let the silence hang after the statement, instead devoting a few second to gauge Evelina’s mood. Lucania took the gamble.

“Evelina, have you ever considered running for public office?”</div>"
143,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-08 01:20:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-i"">You have been cruel. You took everything I had ever thought about myself and turned it ón its head,</span> is what she wanted to say, but she couldn’t. Lucania had very much turned her view on herself upside down, but she had also made her realise that she wasn’t comfortable with living a life given to her when she had already done so much to carve out an existence in a world where her kind were feared at best, attacked on sight at worst. She couldn’t very well say that Lucania had truly been cruel when she had really just helped her despite how painful it had been. 

But even as it hurt, she was also gladdened by the reassurances that her efforts hadn’t all been in vain, and that some people had been convinced that people such as she weren’t as bad as some thought. <span class=""bb-i"">And she’s right. I’m not only doing what I do for myself, but for all Immortals. If my efforts can help others live a life without fear, then—</span>

The question caught her off guard. Had she ever thought of running for public office? She wiped the tears from her eyes, a thoroughly perplexed look coming onto her face as she looked up. “Public office? I haven’t, no. I’ve only ever wanted to be a healer. I don’t have a lot of interest in politics. Why… Why do you ask?”

""Because I think you can help make everything better."" Lucania considered how uncouth it was of her to ask such a thing. She was essentially asking a person she barely knew to consider completely altering their path in life. Could she really just do that? Lucania closed her eyes for a breath. Well, she could certainly present the idea, ""Could you imagine what it would mean? If an Immortal woman was able to achieve even some low ranking position in the biased Motum Diversum government? You travel, you've seen the problems of the world, and as an Immortal you'd hold actual influence in making things better for everyone. Why search for some mythical Immortal society when we could make a better place for ourselves here?"" Lucania sighed, shook her head and shrugged, ""I apologize. I understand that it's a lot to process... and of me to ask. I only bring it up because I think, even with how little I know you, you could really bring about some change. And I would like to assist you... in whatever way I can.""

Evelina shook her head almost as soon as Lucania had finished speaking. It wasn’t just a flat no, but more of a way of saying that, while she could see the merits of it, it was not for her. “I can see where you’re coming from,” she said slowly, hesitantly. “But… I’m not a political person, and far from shrewd enough to be able to play the Game, as it were. I can see how having an Immortal in the ruling party would benefit us as a whole, but it presents another problem.” At this she looked Lucania dead in the eyes, not as a way of challenging her, but to ensure that she wasn’t just grasping at straws, and were serious. “Due to the superstitions surrounding our kind, and how people fear us, a lot of people would see something like that as a grab for power to, I don’t know, overthrow them? People who are afraid are easily manipulated, and just one voice expressing doubt could very well cause an uproar.” 

She leaned back in her chair, hands resting in her lap. “It might be an idea to remember in a few years, but as it is we are still too widely feared, and still remain an unknown. I agree that making a home for us here,” she motioned at everything around them, indicating Russell Town, and the entirety of Dust itself, “would be ideal, but we have to start small. Attempting to get a position in the government would stir up a lot of rumours, so until we can say that we have enough goodwill among the people, I would rather stick to just doing what I do; showing people that although I am an Immortal, I’m still a human and someone who wants to help.” 

Lucania couldn’t pretend like she wasn’t disappointed to hear what was more or less a ‘thank you, but no thank you’ to her proposition. Albeit... she had only <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> come up with the idea. If anything, she should still be thanking Evelina for planting the seeds. Not only that, but she did raise several good points, chief among them being that an immortal couldn’t possibly gain popular support as a politician today. 

However, a <span class=""bb-i"">Standard</span> under her own influence may be a different story. If she could pull that off, the Castalias could operate with impunity, she could avoid war with the Wings, <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> contribute significantly to the Immortal cause. Lucania’s eyes wandered about the room, taking in the faint glow of the golden design, the excessive breakfast laid before them. Ideas hadn’t gotten her to this point. Action had. She took another sip of the juice, lamenting the lack of coffee, and sighed. She’d need to think more on this.

“Rumors….” Lucania reached into her purse to pull out a cigarette and lighter, she held them up to Evelina as if to say ‘Do you mind?’ to her doctor-friend, “I believe the saying is that, ‘they always have some element of truth to them?’ is it not? Or perhaps that too is just rumor designed to make other rumors more believable?” Cigarette between parted lips, the woman chuckled, “My, my… perhaps I’ve stumbled upon a real conspiracy?” She blew out a thin stream of smoke, “Regardless, you’re right. More thought and planning would need to be put into something like this… Still, forgetting that for now, I want to help <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> however I can.”

“Hmmm…” Lucania stood, “Something you said bothered me,” almost as if she were calculating each step, she made her way around the table, “You were mocked for your breast size?” She wore an empathetic, if controlled smile as she asked the question, trying to hide her amusement in the change of subject to something so… blush inducing, “They must have all been idiots or jealous. As a woman coming from a family of gamblers, I’d wager both.”

Evelina smiled ruefully, a slight twitch of the corner of her lips. The way she shook her head seemed almost melancholic, if not for the fact that she chuckled all the while, even with how dry it was. “You… could say that, and yes, I was bullied because of my breast size.” She pointed at Lucania, or more specifically, her chest. “Things started to get real bad when I reached your size at around… I think it was thirteen years old. The girls were, obviously, jealous since we had just reached the age where such a thing became important: Who had them, and who did not? And since I was literally sizes larger the others I became some sort of a… target. The boys were as perverted as you can expect boys that age to be.”

She sighed, a grimace on her face. “‘Cow’ was a name I heard all too often, and cat calls and requests to lift my shirt weren’t uncommon either.” Another sigh, and her expression loosened somewhat, becoming less pained. “Jealousy and degenerating comments was what made me start hiding them with bandages. It was also around that time that I started reading medical books.” 

“What a group of mountebanks…” Lucania muttered, “I…” She grunted, struggling to pull open a window, “I’m honestly surprised those children even knew what the word ‘Cow’ meant…” She gasped, falling a bit backward as her grip on the window failed. She crossed her arms, feeling a mixture of defeat and anger at the thousand pound pane of glass. She turned back to Evelina, “You’ve probably heard this before… but letting what they say get to you only means those ignorant children win, then and now.”

“I never said that it still gets to me,” she replied with a faint smile. “Although… Yes. I shattered a guy’s nose and broke his jaw yesterday because he called me cow.” Her smile turned into a grimace, lips pressed together into a thin line. Upon realising what she had said she quickly rectified. “But that’s not the only reason! He… and two others sorta tried to kill me and rob me of my things. It’s their guns and bullets I have in my bag, the one on the bed. I treated their injuries and left, taking only their guns with me.” She smiled almost apologetically, waving a hand which caused the window to open. “I do think it’s fair to take a little reparations for feeling me up and trying to blow my brains out, <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> take my things.” She grabbed a now luke-warm waffle and took a bite of it. “Smoking isn’t good for you, by the way.” She said, trying to change the topic. “Not healthy.” 

“With all due respect intended, Doctor Quinn, I’ve never been inclined to smoke because of any perceived health benefits…” Lucania sat on the edge of the newly opened window, both amused at Evelina’s subtle display of power and finding herself impressed. This was a woman, a <span class=""bb-i"">virgin</span> who was educated, kind, apparently formidable in combat, and gifted with the ability to manipulate light with her will. She blew a thin stream of silver to mix with the rotten air of the groggily waking neighborhood, letting the ash find it’s way into the warm, lazy breeze that wafted through the alleys. Lucania pivoted delicately, tilting her head as she faced Evelina from where she sat, “Although…” Lucania’s eyes shot back to the cigarette, slowly shortening in her hand, a steady ribbon of platinum wafting erratically from the shortening end. She let the burning tobacco fall to the ground below, making some poor schmucks morning, one way or another. She flicked her focus back to the fabulously red woman, winking a single golden eye. “You’ve piqued my interest over and over. I... find myself inclined to take your advice, it appears as though you’ve certainly figured out something that a wretch like me hasn’t.”

Evelina returned Lucania’s gaze with a gentle one of her own, head tilted slightly to the side. She couldn’t help but think that the woman in the window was looking at her as more than just another person at the moment. Perhaps even… Dare she entertain the possibility that Lucania was appreciating her sitting there? 

Then she winked, and Evelina was sure. Almost. The golden eyes which, if she recalled correctly, did seem to look at her with some sort of admiration, perhaps… affection? She didn’t know, but she felt that the look was somehow different. The wink certainly confirmed it. 

“Yes,” she said, giving an uneven grin. “Although I won’t call you a wretch, smoking really isn’t healthy. So if you’d stop… Well, I’d be happy. If anything it’s one more person who doesn’t ruin their health.” 

“Old habits are seldom the easiest to break,” Lucania sighed, “But it’s not as if smoking ever really--”

Lucania was interrupted mid sentence by a knock. Well, something of a knock, sonically, it was more the sound of someone throwing their full weight against a door.Lucania only had the chance to turn her head from Evelina before the noise came again, this time in it’s wake the door slammed open and the hangover ball of excess that was Lucy castalia trailed in after it. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Oh, cazzo.</span>

“<span class=""bb-b"">HAAAYYY GURRRLLL!!!</span>” Lucy made a point of screaming as she sauntered about the room. The volume often made Lucania wonder why it was her who was gifted with the vocal powers, and that somehow Lucy might’ve gotten some of them. 

She tripped over her mismatched heels on her way to Lucania. Honestly, that may have been her substance use the night prior, or the simple fact that it appeared she couldn’t see. Her hair was wild and frazzled in some places and slicked with some mystery substance and matted down in others. Most of it was hidden by an oversized sunhat, but what Lucania could see almost made her wish she hadn’t had as little breakfast as she did. 

Somehow, she had managed to get through her first night in Russel without having her purse or pearl stolen from her. Although, she didn’t appear to have any clothes, aside from a grimy gray button down clearly intended for a man twice her size. Lucania couldn’t even tell if the teen had anything on under the stolen shirt. She supposed she didn’t particularly care, at any rate, she was just glad Diane had done her job and kept her sister alive, no matter how disgusting post-party Lucy may have been.

“<span class=""bb-b"">WHAAARR WERE YEW BITCH?? AH MISSED YEW ALL NIGHT!!</span>” Lucy wrapped Lucania in a bear hug strong enough to break the spine of someone not accustomed to its intensity.

“I just…” Lucania couldn’t breath. Both from her diaphragm being crushed and from the fact that Lucy smelled like the love child of Dead End Dysentery and Whore’s foot, “I can not even…”

Of course, Lucy wouldn’t. Instead, summoning the strength of a sailor, she shifted the decade older woman under her arm and proceeded to lift and carry Lucania about the room like a rolled up rug. The only struggle that remained in Lucania were her teal eyes and the preemptive moan that came as Lucy turned to face Evelina.

“<span class=""bb-b"">OHHH MYYY GAAAWD! YEW FUCKIN’ BISSSH!!!</span>” Lucy dropped her sister face first on the ground, like a discount bag of flour. She rushed over to Evelina, “<span class=""bb-b"">YEW FINALLY GOT LAID!!!!!</span>”

The banging on the door, and the subsequent crash as it was forced upon with the force of a second class Hollow, had Evelina jumping out of her chair in surprise. She turned to face the door and reached for her sword almost instinctively, only to find empty air. <span class=""bb-i"">Of course. Dress, not wearing any weapons.</span>

The… whoever it was, crashed into the room, rushing over to Lucania and promptly started shouting. Evelina eyed her warily, not moving aside from turning to keep her in her line of sight. She wasn’t quite sure what to make of her, but judging by the fact that Lucania didn’t immediately ask for help—and how she seemed to be higher than a kite on a windy day—she could safely assume that she wasn’t any danger. 

Hardly more than two seconds had passed before the illusion of this woman being ‘safe’ was thrown out the window, as proven by gravity taking effect as soon as she had let go of Lucania—having lifted her like how one would a bride. She tried, and failed, to soften the blow, but wasn’t quite quick enough to do much of anything before the floor shook with the impact. And that was when it got dangerous, to Evelina at least. The newcomer rushed over to her, arms extended as if to hug—or strangle—her, a grin so close to manic that it all but scared her. 

Eyes wide, and with a drunken doom incoming, a single word was uttered that contained every nuance of every emotion coursing through her at this moment.

“Nope!” 

She threw out her hands, a bright flash of light erupting from them, and from that flash materialized several white ropes of a indiscernible material, all of them attached to some part of Lucy’s body, as well as the floor, halting her in her tracks only centimetres from Evelina. Now that she had the chance to not be crushed to death she took her time to study the newcomer. Her pupils dilated to at least twice their previous size, allowing her to take in far more detail than usual. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Blood veins visible in the sclera, putrid breath like some compost snack three months past expiration date, extremely dilated pupils, and nosebleed.</span> He pupils reduced to their normal size and shape, eyes narrowing. <span class=""bb-i"">Drugs at least, and I bet there’s alcohol too.</span> She stepped away and over to Lucania, reaching out a hand to help her up. “Who is she?” She asked, throwing cautious glances at the newcomer.  

Brushing hair out of her face, Lucania graciously accepted Evelina’s hand. She stood with a grunt, the simple interaction had left her sorer than she liked. Regaining some poise, Lucania busied her hands with flattening any creases in her manhandled dress. Her mind, to contrast, felt a cocktail of happiness at seeing her sister, disgust at her current state, shame for considering herself to blame, and embarrassment that Evelina was witness to it all. 

Lucania allowed herself a tranquil, if tired smile, “Evelina, this is my sister, Lucina Castalia. Lucy.” Lucania faced her sister, “Lucy, this is Evelina Quinn. We didn--”

“<span class=""bb-b"">DUUUUUDE!</span>” Lucy tried turning from where she was, to no avail, “Your mutie has <span class=""bb-b"">WAAAAAAAYYYYY</span> better powers than mine!”

“Lucy, that’s--”

“<span class=""bb-b"">WHAAAAATT? WHAAA</span>, Ah can’t say <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">YOUR WORD??</span></span> Is <span class=""bb-b"">THAT IT???</span>” Lucy’s head hung loosely in the restraints as she slurred, “<span class=""bb-b"">AH’LLL HAVE YEW KNOW SOME OF MAI <span class=""bb-i"">BEEEEESSSTTT FRIENDS</span> ARE MUTIES!</span>”

Lucania gripped the bridge of her nose, “Lucy. As far as I know, I might be your only actual friend. What concerns me isn’t your vernacular. It’s you claiming possession of someone Immortal... Where’s Diane?”

Lucy blew a raspberry, “<span class=""bb-i"">Awwwww</span>, she’s out!” Smacking her lips, she continued, “Ah forgot what Ah laced it with... but it was <span class=""bb-b"">SOMETHIN’ ALRIGHT!</span> Then Ah fucked this guy who could move trash around or somethin’, Ah think, at least! Ah invited him here! But I sure wish he had her powers!” Lucy swilled her head to face Evelina, whispering loud enough for everyone to hear, “<span class=""bb-b"">YEW KNOW LUCIA IS <span class=""bb-i"">REALLY</span> INTO BONDAGE SHIT LIKE THIS? SHE LIKES WHIPS TOO--</span>”

Evelina had heard enough. She scowled and, with a snap of her fingers, produced a rectangle plate of light which promptly surged towards Lucy and attached itself across her mouth, keeping her from talking. She looked apologetically at Lucania. “Sorry, but that was getting a bit out of hand,” she said, cheeks flushed a deep red.

“<span class=""bb-b"">Mmpf!</span>” Was Lucy’s immediate response.

Lucania, to contrast, was left speechless. Her blush and widened eyes told of embarrassment, but the shifting colors in her irises told of a full gamut of emotions this encounter had left her to process. Lucy <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have gotten killed last night. She felt anger at Diane, but even more at herself. It would have been her fault for trusting someone so incompetent if anything had happened. 

Then there was the fact that apparently Lucy had invited another Immortal here… something that inspired more confusion than anything. It fit right in with the personal shame and guilt and residual pain from her fall. There was concern that filled her, sisterly love, all the complicated emotions that came with basically being the only mother figure to your 17 year old sibling, and very clearly being a failure at it…

<span class=""bb-i"">Then there was what came with Evelina seeing and… hearing… all of that…</span>

“I… apologize for that display.” Lucania forced a smile as she lifted her downcast eyes, “Thank you… for restraining her in such a… <span class=""bb-i"">creative</span> way.”

Evelina raised an eyebrow, a teasing smile coming unbidden to her lips despite her blush. “So by creative you mean… you sound like you might actually find what I did to her,” she pointed at Lucy, “interesting?” Her smile widened. “Could it be that you might actually be interested in <span class=""bb-i"">that</span>?” Teasing though as she might be, it was an honest question, born of curiosity. 

“<span class=""bb-b"">Mphh-Hmpf!</span>”

“Shut up, Lucy!” Lucania’s cheeks burned like a fire, all composure had gone to the wind with ashes with Evelina’s question. “Ummm no? Well…” She caught herself. She was put on the spot with the question, but she didn’t want to lie about her interest necessarily, she was still able to recognize her curiosity, despite the shakiness in her voice, “Well, no, that’s wrong. No… you’re right I am perhaps intrigued, I just… I don’t know…” Lucania’s eyes shot to the ground, “I-I’m not some freak, okay?”

Evelina chuckled, loud and heartily, placing a hand on Lucania’s back in reassurance. “You’re not,” she said, giving her a gentle rub. “I once met a guy who got aroused by the pain he felt when I set his bone after it had been broken. <span class=""bb-i"">That</span> was weird. You being interested in something similar to your sister over there is experiencing isn’t bad, and doesn’t make you a freak.” The teasing smile from before became more reassuring as she looked down at the smaller woman. “Now… What to do with her? She’s obviously been on drugs, and I bet there’s alcohol too, and,” she quickly glanced at Lucy again, taking special note of the shirt. “And she probably had some funtime with a guy, if what she said earlier, and the shirt, is of any indication.” 
The touch was simple, a comforting hand, but it was Lucania needed to regain her sangfroid. She tried not to let Evelina feel her shaking form beneath her touch, beneath the blue fabric, she needed to be calm. Her voice, variegated with nerves, fought to return to the tone it held before the interloping of Lucy. With Evelina’s question, the attention in room turned to the drugged and restrained girl.
<span class=""bb-i"">Right. You must remain tempered. Focus. The dream said change. But it has to come from you.</span>
“Probably,” Lucania sighed, “She definitely drank like a… one of those Aqueon water animals. I wouldn’t put it past her to have taken a ‘sample’ of every narcotic we’ve got…” She grimaced at Lucy. Noticing the needle marks, the nose running with blood, the various bruises… Replacing the expression of discontent, a mischievous grin grew on Lucania’s face in conjunction with an idea, “Would it be cruel to suggest we just leave her here? To allow her time to ahh… sleep it off?”
“<span class=""bb-b"">Mmpf <span class=""bb-i"">mpmpf</span> hmrf!! mphhf!!</span>” was the immediate onomatopoeia to come from a nervous looking Lucy. 

The idea seemed almost preposterous to Evelina, knowing what certain substances did to the body. She gave Lucania a wary look as if gauging just how serious she was. At the far too obvious mischievous look on her face, she pursed her lips, turning to look at a very nervous looking Lucy. The thoughtful expression stayed on her face for several long moments as she thought it over, her hand drifting from Lucania’s back to rest on her hip, in a loose grip around her waist. 

“It wouldn’t be that good of an idea, I don’t think,” she admitted after a while. “She needs plenty of water to help wash out the alcohol, but the whole drug thing… certainly should keep her where we can have an eye on her at all times. Or we could just tie her up, but I’m not sure how much I like that idea.” The thought expression morphed into a grimace. “I’m afraid we can’t just tie her up. But even then I’m not letting her go before she has at least gotten some water and brushed her teeth.” 

“<span class=""bb-b"">MMMMMMmmmmpfhhh…</span>” groaned Lucy in a clearly frustrated reply.

“She’s never been keen on remaining supervised…” Lucania commented in a thoughtful tone. She could recognize that something needed to change, her attention was all on the tied up Lucy… At least, she was making conscious attempts to keep her attention on Lucy, she was losing that battle. 

A hand slipped its way further down the small of her back than it’d been mere seconds before. It wasn’t a horribly intimate touch, nor was it anything remotely sexual, it was a something as simple as an arm around the waist. Funny, how distracting such simple displays can be… Especially considering Evelina’s apparent inexperience with it all. 

Lucania leaned in closer to Evelina, hair brushing against shoulder, before continuing, “The only liquid I’ve known her to brush her teeth with is Jack Daniels, and I’m not sure she’s ever finished a cup of water in her life. But I’m willing to try anything if it will help her feel better… and perhaps get her to cease commenting on my sex life…”

Unbidden though it was, she did not fight the blush that came to her cheeks, despite having only just fought down the one from earlier. She tightened her grip around Lucania unconsciously, her heart beating a little faster, which she blamed on having used her powers more in the past few hours than she normally did in three days. 

Lucy’s muffled complaints, however, reminded her that there were more important matters to attend—Namely, a hangover and probably still high girl. She groaned inwardly, knowing that this kind of person—or patient—were the worst. She let go of Lucania and headed for the bathroom, stopping only to take an empty glass from the breakfast tray. She returned with a glass full of water which she held up to Lucy’s mouth. A thought removed the binding over her mouth, allowing her to finally speak.

“Drink,” Evelina commanded. 

“<span class=""bb-b"">GAWD LUCIA, WHERE DID YOU PICK UP A SQUARE LIKE THIS?!?!? LEMME THE FUCK GO!</span>”

“Lucy, calm down.” 

“NO!!! IF GOD WANTED US TO DRINK WATER WHY’D HE MAKE IT TASTE LIKE SHIT?”

“It is either drink the water, or you will experience a heavy hangover. Headache, sick, etc. You need to get hydrated again.” She held the glass up, close to her lips, and said again. “Drink. I’m not letting you go until you do.” 

“Ugh… Fine, <span class=""bb-i"">MOM</span>,” was Lucy’s spiteful reply. Consequently they were the only words she could get out before the water found its way into her mouth. She gulped the liquid down with a zeal, she wouldn't admit it to herself, but she was thirstier than she realized. The alcohol had dehydrated her… as well as whatever it was she’d been doing a few hours ago, and, she guess, all night. She’d expended quite a bit of energy and the coke had just kept her going. Her heart was still beating faster than she’d have liked, and as the liquid cooled her dried throat, she couldn’t help but feel thankful to Eve… whatever her name was. Lucy gasped as she finished the cup, “There, done, see! Now let me the hell go!” Of course, she didn’t need to let <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> know she was thankful.

“A smidgen of gratitude would be nice, Lucy,” Lucania chastised, voice equal parts ‘strict guardian’ and ‘concerned mother.’ “Evelina is a trained doctor, and she’s taking care of you on her…” <span class=""bb-i"">and my own…</span> “time. Really, a simple thanks would suffice.”

Evelina waited patiently while Lucania spoke, eyes still trained on Lucy but with a gentle smile on her face now. Once Lucania was done and Lucy had finished grumbling, she headed into the bathroom again, returning with a refilled glass. The bindings holding Lucy tethered to the floor disappeared, and just as the last faded away Evelina held the glass out to her. “Drink this as well. I don’t imagine you’ve had a lot of water during the night, so you need as much as you can get, otherwise you’ll only get a headache worse than what I bet you are already starting to have.” She took a step back, watching the other silently. 

“Man, this is fucking lame,” Lucy mumbled, snatching the cup from Evelina. She turned to her sister, “You guys probably had the lamest sex on the planet.”

Lucania barely suppressed a blush of emotion at the mention of the act, “That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you, Lucina. Nothing like that happened between us, and it won’t do to go about claiming otherwise.” Her serious tone gave way to something kinder, if filled with a palpable hesitation, “She and I are…” Lucania cast a glance to Evelina, “... friends.” 

Lucy almost spat out the water as she drank, “Wow, Lucia.” Her tone was completely level, her expression was flat, “You are literally the only person I know that is so lame that you somehow manage to have a one night stand where all that happens is you make a friend.” Lucy finished the cup and slinked into a chair at the table, “Christ almighty, you found the perf fucking geek waifu, you nerd.” She cast something of a smile to the two, placing a hand against her forehead to alleviate the migraine Evelina had already predicted, “Anyway, whatchu losers eating for brekky? I’m like, starved.”

“You are treading on very thin ice here, Lucy,” Evelina said. It seemed as if everything had gone quiet; the sound from down the club retreating to the background. The gentle smile and expression had disappeared, replaced by a carefully neutral mask. “You barge in here, shouting and screaming. You all but throw your sisters on the ground and then charge at me for whatever unknown reason, and now you’re even throwing around insults and mocking comments; making assumptions based on just about nothing.” 

She took a step forward, her entire body forced to relax. “I’ve only known Lucania for a short while, but I can already tell that she’s not someone who just takes a random person to bed. You are her sister, you should know that. Making demeaning comments such as those is not something I condone, Miss Lucy Castalia. Everyone is free to make choices of their own, and shouldn’t be pressured into things which they are not comfortable with.” 

The two sisters displayed opposing emotions as Evelina spoke. Lucania permitted herself to display a controlled joy. To contrast, Lucy, only barely registering what was said to her, had the scowl of a bored child ready to throw a tantrum. She didn’t, though, instead, she simply shifted her attention from the doctor to the elder Castalia, a sarcastic smirk on her tilted face.

“Wow. She talks way more’n Salem, don’t she?” The smirk became a full blown grin. If one thing could be said about Lucy with a hangover, it’s that she knew exactly where it hurt the most.

And again, their emotions contrasted, as Lucania immediately became downcast and reserved as the remark made it to her ears. She allowed the silence to speak for her as it stretched to fill the moment, fittingly, before replying, “Doesn’t she.”

“Ehh?” Lucy grimaced as the confusion gave strength to the hangover’s intensity.

“Grammar is important, Lucy.” Lucania said, with eyes of gold, she spoke with the same condescension a mother has to a child, “It’d be ‘doesn’t she,’ not ‘don’t she.’” Lucania walked over to where Lucy sat, bent down, and poked her nose with a gentle finger, “Be nice.” She ordered with a hum, she turned to look at Evelina, “She’s got your best interests at heart.” Leaning in to Lucy’s ear, she whispered something else, <span class=""bb-i"">“Besides, I believe I’ve taken quite a liking to her… Let’s keep that our secret for now, though...”</span> 

Lucania stood back up, leaving Lucy sitting in a daze. “For reals?” Lucy’s eyes shot to Evelina, bemused and surprised, “Huh, well, la-di-da for y’all bitches!”

Evelina wasn’t quite sure how to react. For one, she had expected the words to wound Lucania, which they, at some point, did. However it wasn’t for much longer than a scant few moments, the gold in her eyes showing a clear happiness. From what she had gathered the change in eye colour wasn’t voluntary, or so Lucania had insinuated at least. So having this Salem—her previous lover?—rubbed in her face seemed to not affect her as much as she had expected it would. 

<span class=""bb-i"">I wonder why.</span> She kept silent, however, not voicing her question out loud. She instead met the surprised look of Lucy’s, wondering just what it was Lucania said that had so surprised her.

Lucania, as if gliding on air, moved from Lucy to Evelina. Both women were blessed with a picturesque height. But in talking to Lucy, that height never felt so... distinguished. Perhaps it was something as simple as a difference in posture. Evelina carried herself with an almost casual confidence, when Lucania had to tilt her head upward slightly to see Evelina’s feline eyes, she felt a certain grace in doing so. The cynic in her, proposed that it could simply be the novelty associated with addressing a tall woman with silted jade eyes.

<span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps...</span>

“Please try to be patient with her,” Lucania had to stand on her toes to whisper into Evelina’s ear, “<span class=""bb-i"">That’s just her nature, she doesn’t mean… most of it… she is still a child after all.</span>” Lucania allowed herself to linger there, her lips less than a breath away from Evelina’s, she could very easily have nibbled on her earlobe, or moved down slightly to kiss on her neck. She <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have done a lot of things, Evelina was probably aware of this as well. Meaning they were both aware of how that course of action wouldn’t have been the most… <span class=""bb-i"">apropos</span>. 

Lucania stood back, “You mentioned watching her all day, so I must ask, did you have plans for the day? I would hate if either of us were to intrude on your plans...“

<span class=""bb-i"">I’ll try to keep that in mind,</span> she noted to herself, avoiding to speak aloud for fear of Lucy hearing her. Although, she had to make a conscious effort not to ask if Lucy truly was a child. She looked far older than that, and not only because of the slightly smeared make-up she wore. She had to wonder if perhaps the drugs were to blame. She’d never been among drug addicts, or even users before, so she couldn’t quite tell what effects it had on them. She only knew the physical identifiers of drugs being used, but little more than that. 

She smiled down at Lucania, playfully patting her on the head before she glanced at Lucy. “I only really need to go pick up my bike and supplies from where I left them. I had only really planned for a quick stop here in the city, but I have a feeling I’ll stay for longer, so I should get my stuff. That, and I’ll have to deliver a letter. Aside from that I don’t really have any plans. As for your sister, I didn’t mean literally being with her the entire day, just make sure she’s in a nearby room or something so that she can be checked on every now and then.” She chewed her tongue a bit, thinking it over. “So long as she’s in this building it should be okay. A place to sleep, get some food, and,” she looked at Lucy now, her gaze serious,” plenty of water to drink. You want that alcohol washed out of your body.”</div>"

A weary head rested on his bare chest. His arms wrapped around a slender frame, hidden beneath a thin white sheet. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00aeef"">”Promise you won’t leave me…”</font></span> The figure whispered.<br/><br/>He stood at the edge of a dusty cliff, looking out over the abyss.

He ran calloused fingers through long blonde hair. Lips trembled as broken cries escaped from the depths of a tormented heart; he could not hear a sound. Wet droplets fell against hardened skin. A tired fist beat weakly against a strong shoulder. <font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-b"">“Please don’t leave me… Please don’t leave…”</span></font><br/><br/>Bodies lay dead on the ground strewn out all around the camp, peppered with bullet holes. Loose sand was scattered about by a gentle breeze. A woman looked up, watching as armed men shuffled around, tending to the liberated slaves. A rough, bearded man appeared in front of her, extending a bloodstained hand towards her. In that moment she knew she was finally safe.<br/><br/>A windswept man looked back at the slender frame, wrapped up in a white sheet. She was still crying, her head buried in a pillow meant for two. The man turned and reached for the door, a single tear falling from Immortal eyes.<br/><br/>He stood alone atop a tall pillar of red, desert stone, surrounded on all sides by empty space. Fog blanketed the bottomless pit which stretched out below. He pulled a golden watch from the pocket of his worn, dirty vest. He brought a finger to the latch, and opened the watch, looking down its empty face. There were no numbers or hands, just the face of beautiful young blonde. <font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-b"">“Don’t leave me…”</span></font> The phantom whispered.<br/><br/>The man stepped forward, his feet hanging over the edge, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I’m sorry.”</font></span> Bento answered. He leaned forward and dropped down into the endless void.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I love you.”</font></span></span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">—Begin Day Two—</div><br/><br/>Bento reluctantly opened his eyes, taking in the dimly lit room as he tried to piece together where he was. A disturbance had brought him back into consciousness he noted, watching briefly as a tall, slender figure clothed herself before shutting his eyes again. He fell in and out of consciousness for the next few minutes as his body struggled to detoxify the various poisons he had consumed the night before. Through the haze he gained a vague picture of the scene unfolding; he was definitely the bedroom of his little apartment in the slums he realized. But how had he gotten there? Why did he feel like he’d been hit by a truck? What was this girl doing? She seemed to be getting ready to leave, a course of action that Bento was not entirely unfond of. It would give him less to worry about at least. He heard her walk outside and let out a sigh of release, giving up on his efforts to maintain any sense of awareness before passing out again.<br/><br/>When he finally awoke again, Bento groaned as he sat upright, clutching at his aching head. Sloppily climbing out of bed, the Immortal staggered into the bathroom and propped himself up on the sink. He turned on the faucet, and greedily sucked down as much water as he could drink, the first step to beating his hangover... Bento slowly sunk to the floor and sat back against the wall, resting for a moment before attempting the short crawl to the shower. Once at the edge of the tub, he removed his briefs and pulled himself up and into the shower.<br/><br/>Bracing himself for the stream of cold water, Bento leaned against the wall and turned the knob. An apartment in the slums afforded few luxuries, and water heaters were few and far between. It wasn’t like he was used to luxury, though. Bento welcomed the cold, as it tore through the hangover and forced him back to his senses. Dear God, what had happened last night? Had he dreamt last night? He muttered something under his breath as the cold water soaked his head. <span class=""bb-i"">What was the meaning of this curse?</span> He wondered, letting the water fall down his back and envelope his body. <span class=""bb-i"">What was the meaning of this gift?</span><br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">Why does it hurt to be alive?</span></font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><br/>Bento stepped out into the main room of the apartment, his bare feet carefully navigating around the shattered glass that still lay strewn about sections of the floor. There was a note on the table, tucked under the bottom half of what had once been a bottle of moonshine. The whole place smelled of alcohol and death. There was a dress lying on the ground and his shirt appeared to be missing, though his pants and boots were still safe in the other room. Bento picked up the note and read it aloud, “Bitchez Breww! –Lucy” There was a winky-face drawn next to her name. What the hell had he gone and done, he wondered? <span class=""bb-i"">I just hope I didn’t finish in the wrong place…</span><br/><br/>He was ready to leave in just over twenty minutes, most of that time being dedicated to cleaning his gun. He had also taken time to pack up a black leather knapsack with all of the things he might need should he end up working with the Castalias. As he prepared to head over to the bar, Bento pulled on his vest and noticed an unexpected weight in one of the pockets and reached down to pull out his flask. Thank God it was miraculously full; he must have filled it up at the bar last night. They always said the best cure for a hangover was hair of the dog, he mused, tossing back about a shot’s worth. Before heading towards the door Bento quickly grabbed a handful of dried jerky from a container and put some in his pocket, holding on to the rest for immediate consumption. Throwing his pack over his shoulder and grabbing his rifle, the windcaller stepped outside.<br/><br/>It wasn’t long before Bento arrived at the Bitches Brew, immediately noticing how different the place looked during the daytime than it had at night. “A drink.” He said, approaching the bar and dropping his stuff at his feet and propping his rifle against the bar. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“And not that rotgut shit you were serving last night…”</font></span><br/><br/>The last remark earned him a harsh glare from the bartender, but Bento got his drink just the same. It wasn’t so bad he thought, taking a sip of whatever liquid it was that constituted the Castalia’s higher-grade booze. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Where can I find Lucania?”</span></font> Bento added, tossing Lucy’s note of invitation on the bar.<br/><br/>“I’ll take a look upstairs, sir.” The bartender replied, suddenly feeling a lot more cooperative.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Mm.”</font></span> Bento grunted, signaling for the man to go ahead. As the bartender walked off the Immortal took a look around the bar again, his eyes anchoring on a man who appeared to be some sort of low-level Castalia goon. Bento approached the goon’s table, taking in the man’s features and sizing him up. His nose had certainly been broken before, but he didn’t have the roughened look of a man who had lost very many fights. In Bento’s experience that generally meant someone hadn’t really been in many fair ones. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“You’re wearing my sunglasses.”</font></span> The windcaller said, now standing over the goon, interrupting whatever lame joke he had been telling his friend across the table.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">“Oh yeah? Wells seein’ as weze Castalyas own dis place, way I see it is deeze sunglasses is mine, so how boutcha fuck off, buddy?”</span></font> The goon retorted, clearly feeling proud of himself, as he looked over for approval from his friend across the table.<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“You don’t want to do this.”</span></font><br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">“Why da fuck is that, cazzo?”</span></font> The goons stood up in unison, forcing Bento to take a step back.<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Because I’m about to count down from ten, and if I don’t have those sunglasses in my hands by the time I hit one, then I’m going to kill you…”</span></font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“10…”</font></span> The goons looked at each other.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“9.”</font></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“8.”</font></span> Goon 1 signals for goon 2 to attack.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“7.” </font></span>The second goon threw a sloppy right hook towards Bento’s face, a move that was easily ducked.

145,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-13 02:00:00,kapuchu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Evelina stretched, arms above her head and back straight. She stood outside the door to Lucania's room, wearing her T-shirt and jeans once again, bandages covering her chest underneath her shirt. She hadn't been very enthusiastic about changing out of the dress, but she found it necessary. A red dress was not something you wore when you were to go out into the plains. <br/><br/>She patted the hilt of her sword, strapped horizontally across her waist, then her gun currently in its holster. Both were there, secure and easy to reach. Her goggles were also covering her eyes again, much to her displeasure. She had liked being able to walk around without covering the most obvious proof of her being an Immortal. It had made her feel normal again, if only a little. At the very least she felt secure when she hadn't had to. A faint smile touched her lips, being with Lucania wasn't a bad thing. It was actually nice; she made her relaxed and allowed her to not hide anything. <br/><br/>She sighed. But not all people were like Lucania. She was, after all, also an Immortal, and was feared by the vast majority of Standards for that very reason. As was Evelina. She grimaced slightly as she made her way down the hallway, towards the stairs down. The idea of being feared simply because she was different didn't sit well with her, but Lucania had been right earlier. Even if she was feared now, she didn't want to change that. She had fought too many fights, worked too hard, and spent too much effort in trying to carve out an existence in this miserable world. She wasn't going to just give that up, and being feared because she was different? That wasn't going to stop her. Rather, it made her want to fight more. If she could make just a tiny difference for future Immortals, then that was all worth it. Persevere, continue forward--Show whatever god was out there the power of human stubbornness. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Yes.</span> A short giggle escaped her. <span class=""bb-i"">We humans are stubborn, aren't we?</span> Her smile widened just a tad more at that. <br/><br/>On her way down the stairs she heard the unmistakeable sound of struggle. Upon entering the bar downstairs it became clear that it wasn't so much a struggle as one guy clearly dominating the other. <span class=""bb-i"">Men,</span> she thought, sniffing haughtily. <span class=""bb-i"">Always have to show off: Who has the biggest dick? Who can drink the most? Who is the strongest? I swear, they're worse than my classmates back when I was 14. The need to be better than others is suffocating.</span> She grunted and shook her head, ignoring the two men as she headed for the door. She did, however, take note of the guy who had a knife stabbed through his hand, deciding that she'd do what she could for him once she had gotten her stuff back from her bike. For now, however, she couldn't do much but give the guy who stabbed him a sullen glare. <span class=""bb-i"">Men.</span> <br/><br/>------<br/><br/>The trip through the slums was uneventful, with not a single pick pocket trying to take her gun or sword. No beggar tried to ask for coin, and only a few wolf whistles followed her as she passed through, and even then no one acted upon those whistles. It was only admiration made vocal from afar. <br/><br/>She slipped past the guards without much of a fuss, too, having to only erase herself from sight three times when a sudden guard made his--or her--appearance. Soon she had made it far enough away that she wouldn't be accosted or questioned on sight, and started heading towards where her bike was hidden at a steady pace. It took her a good half an hour to make it there, the sand and uneven ground making fast travel difficult and annoying.<br/><br/>She stood on top of a hill, the sun battering her relentlessly, and fruitlessly. Her eyes were fixed on the place where her bike would be hidden. And it was. She could just barely see the handle poking out of its hiding place, thanks to her sharp eyes, but that was not why she had stopped. While her bike itself seemed safe, and everything appeared in order, there was one thing which stood out. It was black, and the size of a truck. Four arms, two ending in a set of pincers with wicked fang-like protrusions within, and the other two being a pair of torso-sized fists. It looked human enough if one ignored that, the jet black chitin and its inhuman size. A strangely human sized head sat atop its torso, a beady eyes peering forward. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Hollow!</span> <br/><br/>She had encountered a few before, but those were only the man-sized ones and easy to defeat. A truck sized one was a whole different matter: Bigger, badder, and probably a whole lot more powerful. She cast a look back over her shoulder, Russell Town visible in the distance. It was only a matter of time before this thing noticed the city, and by then it would attack mindlessly and, probably, take down a fair amount of civilians and soldiers alike. She knew Octavia was there, and she was confident that the Standards could take care of one this size, but even then it wasn't a chance she was willing to take. <br/><br/>She cursed herself as she charged down the hill, screaming in her mind how much of an idiot she was for doing this. <span class=""bb-i"">Sometimes I hate myself for wanting to help all those idiots!</span> She silently cursed, channeling the spirit of her father when he got annoyed with the recklessness of some of the people. <br/><br/>The hollow apparently saw her, as it turned her way and charged, pincers and fists extended forward. <br/><br/>Evelina grabbed her gun, turned off the safety and fired, darting to the side as she fired another two shots. The creature just screamed, seemingly caring very little about the bullets embedded in its chest and side, not that they had penetrated far. It barrelled forward, taking several seconds to turn thanks to its oversized body. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Very different from a small one,</span> Evelina registered, pointing the gun at the beast to fire again, this time aiming for its legs. Four more shots rang out, two meeting their target but doing very little, hardly even making it hesitate. She gritted her teeth and holstered her gun. It wasn't going to do her much good against this thing, its armour was just too thick. She instead called upon her powers, one hand raised as if to stop a blow, as the other began to glow faintly; a small orb of light gathering in her palm. <br/><br/>The beast came upon her like a steam train, its screeching roar piercing the air like some mad god's symphony. She darted to the side and skipped away, watching it slowly turn and come in for another charge. This time she was ready. She raised her right hand and the air shimmered. The Hollow impacted with her barriers, stopping it in its track. Infuriated, it started pounding it, booms echoing across the plains. <br/><br/>Lines started to appear across the surface, small veins of light all gathering at a small point in the centre. <br/><br/>Punch after punch after punch. It didn't stop, continuing its attempts at breaching the invisible wall in front of it. <br/><br/>Evelina grinned. The centre of the wall flared bright and a shockwave issued forth. A boom echoed across the plains, a powerful blow of kinetic force hitting the hollow point-blank. It was thrown back, landing head over heels with its chitin cracked several places, black goo oozing out. A few seconds passed before it got on its feet again, seconds during which Evelina focused her efforts on the light in her left palm. It was slowly growing; becoming the size of a tennis ball and steadily becoming brighter. <span class=""bb-i"">Not long now.</span> <br/><br/>The Hollow charged, and so did Evelina. She dissolved into light, propelling herself forward. She appeared again a second later, too close for it to react. She had her right hand curled into a fist, a shimmer surrounding it. The punch sent the hollow sprawling onto its back, its chitin cracked further. <br/><br/>Evelina found herself on her back within seconds, however, one of its feet having whipped at her in an unnatural angle, sending her flying. She spat out sand, cursing herself for not having noticed the digitigrade legs. She was bruised, but nothing beyond that. She stood up in time to see the thing charge again, a mindless form of attack. She stood her ground, eyes narrowed and air around her shimmering. One pincer reached out and around her, closing in a crushing death grip. The fangs stopped an arm's length away from her, kept back by some invisible force. She raised a hand, first open then closing it like a fist. The pincer started opening as if pushed by the barrier around Evelina. Her teeth bared, she yanked hard with her powers, a violent crack tearing through the air, accompanied by the Hollow's screeching wail of pain as half of its pincer was town off. The torso sized hands, made a grab for her but found the barrier to still be in place. <br/><br/>Its frustration rose. It was unable to find purchase anywhere and screeched and roared as it continuously tried to get at her. Again, lines appeared across the barrier, coalescing into a single point. A flash, a boom, and the Hollow was staggering backwards, disoriented by the blow. It shook its head and readied itself for another charge, but found its target gone. <br/><br/>Evelina had dissolved into light and propelled herself up into the air, behind the beast. She grinned wickedly, canines glinting in the air. A stray thought came to her, a memory of an old comic book she had read. It was about a young boy with wild hair and a staff on his back. She didn't remember the specifics: Not his name, nor what story it was. She remembered only one thing: A word, a single word with no meaning whatsoever. But even then, something followed it. <br/><br/>Her lips parted, and the word came out. Like a child playing pretend would, she extended her left hand, the orb of light now shining bright. A bright beam erupted from it, screaming straight for the beast. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">KAMEHAMEHA!</span></span></div><br/><br/>The beam tore right through it, the force of her concentrated light burning its chitin to cinders, and reducing what remained of its blackened heart to ash. It slumped forward and fell to the ground, a pool of black spreading out beneath it. Evelina landed on the ground, legs buckling beneath her, falling heavily on her back. She groaned, cursing herself for having let herself materialize in two metres height. <br/><br/>She placed a hand on her chest, breathing deeply in an effort to calm down her racing heart. She had taken a few more hits to her barriers than she would have liked, something which she could only blame herself for. The Hollow was slow, so dodging had been easier. <span class=""bb-i"">But I had to weaken its shell first, or my beam wouldn't work!</span> True enough, she conceded to herself, standing up with a little effort. Her legs hurt, as did her hip where she had been hit, but a quick inspection showed only a bruise forming. There wouldn't be any meaningful damage, luckily.<br/><br/>A few minutes later and she had found her bike again. It was out of its hiding place and was currently under a quick inspection. By the looks of it everything was still there, so no one had found it and stolen her things. <span class=""bb-i"">Good.</span> <br/><br/>She spent another fifteen minutes just resting, making sure her heart had calmed down before she started the trek back to the city. It was only a half hour walk, so she didn't want to waste fuel on that. <br/><br/>She sniffed at herself. She needed a bath again. That Hollow had smelled something fierce, and now she did too. Her nose scrunched up in disgust. <span class=""bb-i"">Just great.</span></div>"

A slight smile had creeped onto her face. Not one of genuine happiness, but one of emotional protection. It was the type of passive smile one wore when they didn't want others asking about they felt-- because they themselves weren't entirely sure how thy felt. Evelina stepping out had hit her a bit harder than anticipated, apparently. Even in the short span of time she'd spent with her, the companionship had really begun to sink in.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Italiano inguaribile romantico!</span><br/><br/>Lucania's smile became more genuine at the thought. At the edge of the bed, she pulled up the dark stocking with a certain trepidation at acknowledging the realization. The light in the room was brighter than ever as the sun approached afternoon height, reflecting all the fools gold against itself into an infinite glow of hopeful, luxurious light. Lucania and Lucy had taken the opportunity to finish off the remains of the breakfast the instant Evelina had left, like two unobserved carnivores in the wild. Lucania had even needed to apply her makeup. Lucy, had taken to rolling around lazily in what was Evelina's bed-- she was like a small kitten... or a child, caught in the dilemma of experiencing an extreme sugar rush, while simultaneously being tired.<br/><br/>Carmela, Lucania's silent, Ebony... quite possibly British, protector had only just let herself in. Words in regards to Evelina and Carmela's nature found themselves exchanged. Carmela. In a rare display. Showcased what the emotion 'sadness' or perhaps 'disillusionment?' Her normally intense eyes softened exactly half a shade, and her permanent deadpan saw both corners of her mouth turning downwards exactly 5 degrees. <br/><br/>""You really think I don't like you, boss?"" Carmela sounded hurt, the most hurt she'd ever sounded, actually-- and this was a woman who'd taken bullets for her.<br/><br/>""N-no,"" Lucania pulled on the other obsidian stocking, her eyes dropped to an empathetic azure shade. ""It wasn--""<br/><br/>""SHE'S FUCKING WITH YOU CARMELA,"" Lucy yelled, a burrito wrapped in sandy sheets, she hummed as she continued, yelling in an off-key, but sing-song voice, ""YOOOOUUUUU KNOOOWWWW LUCIIIIIIIAA LUUUUUHHHHSSSSS YOOOOOOUUUUUUU!"" She slammed her head into a pillow as she finished, ""God, my fucking head hurts...""<br/><br/>""Well..."" Carmela reverted to her neutral, gruff tone easily, ignoring Lucy, her attention turned towards the eldest Castalia, ""I want you to know, there should be no question of loyalty, boss--""<br/><br/>Lucania raised a hand. Standing up, she moved from the bed to the door with a quick grace, and gently laid her hand on the taller, muscular woman's shoulder. ""Carmela-- there will <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> be a question of your loyalty to me or this family. You've been my only guardian since I was wearing diapers! I trust you with my life and I care for your well-being."" Lucania became quizzical, ""Is everything alright? Have you even slept?""<br/><br/>Carmela's eyes were at least 2 shades wider. ""No, boss..."" She gave something of a bow, before quickly opening the door, preparing for her exit. Was that... happiness? Happiness verging on tears?

Lucania tilted her head, already mid conversation with her sister, ""I suppose I've been thinking along these lines for quite a while. Years, even. I believe it came to something of a climax after yesterday's... more unsavory events.""<br/><br/>""AhahaHAH<span class=""bb-b"">AHAHA!!</span>"" Lucy belted, ""I bet you came to a real good climax last night, din'cha?""<br/><br/>Lucania's face flushed a bright red, her eyes contrasted by dying themselves sky blue, ""W-well I!"" she gasped, ""I-I didn't..."" She stopped herself again, finding it rather odd how flustered she was becoming at things that, several weeks ago, wouldn't have even broken her exterior. ""Honestly, little Lucina,"" Lucania said, a condescending smile plastered on her face, ""I had no idea you were so... <span class=""bb-i"">interested</span> in my sex life, you've displayed an almost eerie fixation with it ever since you came in this morning. Tell me dear... Are you... <span class=""bb-i"">curious?</span> About women?""<br/><br/>""Ew,"" Lucy wretched in disgust, ""No, dude, that's fucking gross! I can barely fuckin' deal with how gross my own vag is. Sorry I ever even fuckin' brought it up with you or your new girlfriend doc square fangs. I'm just sayin' it's about time is all, sis.""<br/><br/>""I've already told you it's alright, dear sister."" Lucania strapped on a pair of blue heels as she changed the subject, ""Today, I've decided it's time for my thought to fuel action.""<br/><br/>Lucy's stare was one of intense strained confusion, ""What?""<br/><br/>""Achilles--"" Lucania began, standing to accommodate to the new height the shoes gave her, ""For years, I've allowed myself to wage a bloody conquest with little regard for my own life,"" Crossing the gap between them, Lucania gripped Lucy's hands into her own, ""or those of others."" <br/><br/>Lucy blushed almost immediately, ""Y-yeah? So what about it? I-idiot!"" she snatcher hand away and jumped back onto the bed.<br/><br/>""I've been like Achilles. Fighting for Helen, bloodily, without strategy, using only the obvious, most base of tools at my disposal. Relying on money and my Id. That we haven't already felt the brunt of what the Winged Guardian's have at their disposal is amazing. I've committed nothing short of an act of war..."" Lucania's voice faltered, ""Because of a childish inability to let go... my own ego...""<br/><br/>The younger Castalia, scooting to the edge of the bed, wordlessly hugged her sister. And for a moment, the pair stayed perfectly still like that. <br/><br/>Lucy was the first to break the embrace, jerking back fast, ""Alright, but nothing gay.""<br/><br/>A laugh escaped Lucania's lips, ""Right... even after the shower you still smell like liquid distilled in a septic tank..."" They'd fallen back on the bed. Lucania stood, finishing her sniffling before continuing her address, ""Things are changing, Lucy. And I'm going to need your help.<br/><br/>Lucy gave a lazy scratch to the back of her head, further strengthening her bedhead. She smacked her lips and looked through lazy eyes. ""What'cha need?""<br/><br/>""You. In Serenity.""<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">WHAT!?</span></span>""<br/><br/>""Lucy, calm down.""<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">NOO!!!</span></span>"" Lucy stood, pacing the length of the room, she held a hand to her head as the hangover increased the strength of her migraine, she lowered her voice, ""You want me to go back there? With the cazzo ti cazzo fat bastardo?""<br/><br/>Lucania sighed, ""It's not ideal. But Russel is about to become too dangerous. If everything goes well, I should be in Tas by tonight, I need someone to keep an eye on things back home for me.""<br/><br/>""You got fuckin' people!"" Lucy scowled.<br/><br/>""I need someone I can trust."" <br/><br/>Lucy stared at the ceiling, thinking of alternatives, ""Why don't you send fuckin' Diane?""<br/><br/>""I am."" Lucania shot back, ""She's going with you..."" Lucania eyes shot to the side as she murmured, ""Although, I do hope she'll prove herself a better guard for you than last night...""<br/><br/>""I don't need a fuckin' guard!""<br/><br/>Lucania grinned, ""So you'll go?""<br/><br/>A bitter, exasperated sigh was Lucy's comeback. She knew she couldn't get out of this. With Lucania, you could never get out of deals like this. She always needed her pawns in certain places at certain times. Even if those pawns were drunken failures. ""I'll fuckin' go..."" Lucy whispered, ""But I don't need no fuckin' Diane!""<br/><br/>""Ohhhh, I know, sweetie. Don't think of her as a guard... just think of her as... a traveling companion! Two heads are better than one, after all."" Lucania hummed, eyes gold with the glow of victory.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">That didn't last long</span><br/><br/>Carmela burst into the room, a slight glint of alarm in her eyes. The type of alarm that spoke 'Boss, we got a bit of a situation,' or something like that. But deadpan and Briton. Out of the corner of her eyes, Lucania caught Lucy's slowly growing devious grin. <br/><br/>""He's here..."" Lucy said, her voice imitating one of those evil mastermind villains from an Old World midnight science-fiction double-feature.<br/><br/>Lucania tilted her head in response, confusion painted all over her face.<br/><br/>Lucy smirked, ""Just think of him as... a traveling companion..."" She failed at imitating Lucania's voice through her slight slur, ""Two heads are better than one, after all...""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">The brother of 'lyrical ramblings' sits nearby, singing an even more discordant tune...</span></div><br/><br/>'Diver<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">(*Y*&amp;Y*&amp;</span></font>sum <span class=""bb-s"">is my daddy, Ser<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-s"">(*Y*&amp;H(UIHJIuguiojbhoi</span></font>enity's my mo<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(O*Y&amp;*Y</font></span>ther,<br/>Bull<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">U*(Y(*Y(*y98yh</font></span>ets are my very <span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">I(*TY*&amp;Y*&amp;Y</font></span>best friend.<br/>Heaven is m<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*&amp;T*GHI(UH*IUHh</font></span>y baby, mafi<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">)(Y(*Y*((8y789ygh</font></span>a’s her father,<br/>Immor<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">^T^&amp;GIuhiuiuhuih</font></span>tality is th<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">)(*U(*Y879y98y</font></span>e end.<br/><br/>Ple<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*(TY*UH*GH)*(UH</font></span>ase Know that I'll foreve<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-s"">(*Y&amp;*Y)*(Y*()</span></font>r love you<br/>Until the heav<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(T&amp;**&amp;TY^&amp;RUH</font></span>ens, bless us, with rain<br/>I'll fore<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(&amp;T&amp;^FGOUIGHYGUI</font></span>ver love you<br/>Rosemary pray<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*&amp;RGYUGUHBUH</font></span>s the rosary f<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(*Y*&amp;GHUHJgvTYf%&amp;F67%RF</font></span>or my heart's p<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(*Y*&amp;Y</font></span>ain.<br/>(I s<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">&amp;^R&amp;TFIHUH</font></span>aid don<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">#$%F</font></span>'t wor<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">)*(Y*(&amp;*Y*&amp;</font></span>ry abo<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">657</font></span>ut it)'<br/><br/>My c<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-s"">#RRRR</span></font>loth<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(*YUGHYGIHHUIGU(HUI</font></span>es still sme<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">^F&amp;6f</font></span>ll like y<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*&amp;T^</font></span>ou,<br/>And<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">8y89yhg</font></span> all the re<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">SW#$R</font></span>cords sa<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">)*Y(*&amp;Y*&amp;Y</font></span>y you’re sti<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">&amp;T*G*</font></span>ll young.<br/>I pr<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*&amp;T*&amp;GHYG^&amp;t87T6T98Y9</font></span>etend I’m <span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">UG*&amp;</font></span>not hu<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(*YY*</font></span>rt<br/>And go about thi<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Y*Y87uuu</font></span>gs new world like I’m havin’ fun.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">oi89g56u78i87o98o989oet crat54y65y65yzy e(68(y*7tvery Foioridakkiuoiuoy uioouioight,<br/>uoiDropIUHGGYYRR it li^&amp;R^i87o&amp;R&amp;T*T(ke &amp;F&amp;FG&amp;6fit’s hiouioiuo65R67Got wi*(Y&amp;*T^&amp;FYF^fthout pale moo(*Y*()Y)Unlight.</font></span><br/>Grand <span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">OpelHIOHIHUH*(Y*&amp;Tra BoIUoUYIYUIUYIth, weIYUI're fee*Y)*Y*)Y*yliug aIUIUYIll rIUYIUYIighUYIUYIUYIYt,</font></span><br/>Rosemary'<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">*&amp;Y*&amp;T^&amp;^TYs sw<span class=""bb-s"">$&amp;%*(^GGUIF^&amp;T</span>ayin’ sof&amp;*TY*&amp;G&amp;^Gtly to her hea&amp;^&amp;G^&amp;G*UHrt's delig)(U(*Y*Y^&amp;f6dfyugvht.</font></span><br/><br/>An<span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">5465757</font></span>d <span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">(*^*&amp;TIJKnow!</font></span><br/><span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">ThHFGHFHFa6576575$#%$fefrev)*^*&amp;TY*GYYer lovT&amp;^TO8e yo&amp;*(Y*&amp;*()hu</font></span><br/><span class=""bb-s""><font color=""#ed1c24"">I'FDGRTY56ll f$#$E67R9t6978G8orever l(*Y*&amp;Y*&amp;YovGH*&amp;G*g8he yo()*U*(&amp;Y*&amp;yhu</font></span></span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">(The writing is incomprehensible, towards the end lyrics are merely scribbled out from the page entirely with angry, ruby red pen strokes.)</span></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">(Lucania was very clearly not happy with this final product, the result of her first foray into song writing)</span></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/>Lucania made her way down the backstage staircase, seeking whatever commotion was occurring in the golden room. She could hear screams, and as her heels clacked against the concrete staircase, she could feel the tension as she approached whatever the problem was. Had the winged Guardians sent a direct retaliation? No... Lucy seemed fairly certain of what was happening here. Whatever it was, it wasn't as big as war against the pigs. Not yet. The jeers and Italian curses seemed directed at a single troublemaker. Whatever the man had done, it would--<br/><br/>Walking into wide view of everything going on in the main view, the first thing that caught her attention, instead of the cries, was the embrace of two women sitting off of their own. Lucania could feel her eyes becoming just the slightest hint of lavender, and more than a hint of jealous jade, before she tore them away. Walking slowly into the group of lowly Castalia mooks raising something of a ruckus at what appeared to be one man. Wearing sunglasses.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Priorities!</span><br/><br/>A suited man with overly slicked hair and a big, bent nose approached her out of the commotion, he sported a rather bloody hand with a fresh and nasty looking hole in it. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Lovely.</span><br/><br/>Lucania sighed internally, she recognized the man. 'Man' was a term she used loosely to refer to the skinny and frail Tommy ""Big Devil"" Castalia. Her cousin, technically. He had inherited absolutely nothing from Leoluca, except his odd blue eyes. Except, even in that aspect, Leoluca's held a cold, distant air to them, that commanded respect.<br/><br/>Big Devil just looked like he was about to start crying. All the time.<br/><br/>""Heeeeeeeeyyyyy, it's mah fookin' cousins ova here!"" He said, in between gasps of the pain brought to him by his new found orifice.<br/><br/>Lucania's eyes filled with disinterest, she crossed her arms, addressing 'Big Devil' in proper Italian, ""Quello che è successo, Tommy?""<br/><br/>""Fookin' cazzo bum-faced fuck stabbed mes!"" He looked down at his sleeve, ""Eyyy! Cuz, we's both fookin' bloody sleeves now, ahh?""<br/><br/>""Destra."" Lucania sighed, bile rising in her throat, ""Perché?""<br/><br/>""Eyyy, I don't fookin' know! He comes over alls jabronis an just fookin' steals mys sunglasses, see!""<br/><br/>""E tu lo lasci?""<br/><br/>""Wells... I means... you's wasn't there! Yous don't know how it went down, see!""<br/><br/>""Egli si avvicinò. Manifestatisi. Tu lamentò... Ora sei stato pugnalato. Ma invece di lui accoltellato indietro... Mi chiedi di coinvolgere me stesso. No?""<br/><br/>Tommy's eyes went straight for the ground, ""W-wells, yeas, I guess that's how it played out b-but...""<br/><br/>""Tu sei un fottuto bambino!"" Lucania threw her hands in the air. He really was like a fucking baby. Who lets themselves get stabbed, and then does nothing about it, while the man who stabbed you literally sits several feet away, brandishing your stolen property. Lucania summoned rage in her voice as she yelled at the jeering associates and made men. Not one of them with enough gumption to challenge someone who spilled the blood of family and stole on their own turf. With red eyes, Lucania shouted, ""Siete tutti cazzo bambini!!""<br/><br/>The room fell silent. Taking a glass off of a passing barmaids tray, Lucania poured the alcohol on Tommy's injured hand. Soliciting a scream to break the silencio.<br/><br/>Lucania sighed, addressing Tommy in his peasant tongue once he quieted down once more, ""I'll handle it."" She said, already walking towards the bar, followed by Carmela and her Tommy gun, ""Go upstairs, Tom. I've got a doctor friend who should be back soon, go keep an eye on Lucy for a while...""<br/><br/>The coward excitedly turned tail and practically ran upstairs, ""Youse got it, lady boss!""<br/><br/>Lucania calmly strolled to the 'bum-faced' man's location. He seemed to be waiting for her. He was certainly rough in appearance. No doubt years melded by Dust doing... whatever it was he did. Lucy seemed to think him some private guard, but he looked more... storied than that. Most private guards looking to get hired didn't typically impale the hand of their employer's cousin. As she neared, she considered the possibilities. He could simply be a drifter like Evelina, or a Motum spy, or perhaps an assassin? His power was... moving trash?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps he's simply an old Dustlands Immortal who wants to break bad?</span><br/><br/>Lucania sat adjacent to the man. She didn't look at him, not directly, and she didn't care if he was looking at her. Lucania merely let the silence build between them, touched only by a distant jazz in this dark corner of the bar. Breathing in the vaguely oaky smoke in the air, Lucania sighed. <br/><br/>She spoke first.<br/><br/>""So... Lucy sent me a thief?""<br/></div>"

Its voice was but a whisper, carried upon the tender arms of a breeze blowing softly through the tall, dying grass. Ruffling the barren branches of the scattered tress around the clearing. It was always the clearing. The beast stood, rather, it seemed to materialize from the earth itself. A roiling wave of dark smoke, travelling upwards, and slowly forming the shape of a person. Just the general, smokey silhouette, a mirrored reflection of the woman standing before it. It walked towards her slowly, so smoothly as if to appear it wasn't moving at all.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""..Alex..""</span> It called, reaching out the wispy image of its arm. So close.. so very close-<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Alex took a sharp breath, oxygen flooding into her lungs as she woke with a start from her uneasy sleep. She sat up abruptly, feeling as if her face had slammed into a wall. Her small fists worked at her eyes as she rubbed out the sleep, memories of the morning slowly coming back to her in uncoordinated segments. <span class=""bb-i"">'Oh yea..'</span> she thought to herself. She confirmed her suspicions by looking over at the sleeping body next to her. Alex's face quickly turned red as the more sensual images filled her mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Oh.. yea..'</span> she thought once more. Simply staring at the woman before her. Vladimira, she recalled. Her mind became a whirlwind of emotion as she failed to draw a proper feeling to actually... feel. Confusion, Embarrassment, Intrigue, and others battled for dominance within her mind. Her pulse quickened as she sat there, watching the sleeping body, as her chest rose and fell with each breath. The state of her own body finally registered in Alex's mind, and she turned an even deeper shade of crimson. She looked around, desperate to locate something to cover her nakedness without actually disturbing the woman currently sharing the vibrant blue blanket. She opted to grab one of her jet black pillows and try to somehow cover herself modestly, before feeling like an idiot.<br/><br/>Her bed companion was still sleeping.<br/><br/>Alex slithered out of the bed as gently as she could muster. Freezing at every audible sound the other woman made. Alex's eyes wandered back to the body in the bed, following the curves beneath the blanket, absorbing the sight before her. Until her embarrassment took over once more. She tiptoed across the room, silently picking up her garments, which were mixed with what would obviously be the other woman's closed. She tried to ignore the fact that the line of clothes led to the shower, or the fact that she was clean. Images of Vladimira came back into Alex's mind, though she did her best to push such things out, trying to keep herself focused on the task at hand. Which wasn't entirely easy, as a raging headache pounded against her skull, even though she'd never once experienced a hangover.<br/><br/>She slipped on her clothes quickly, sighing softly as her bare flesh became confined within clothes once more. She didn't feel particularly in the clear yet however. She turned back to the form in the bed, still sleeping. Her gaze wandered again, and an inkling of lust formed within her, smothered by sheer discomfort and humiliation. She had made a fool of herself, acted inappropriately. Albeit she was drunk, presumably, at this very moment she wasn't entirely sure. She sighed heavily as the turmoil raged on inside her. She didn't know how to feel, and other memories, or thoughts kept plaguing her mind. The dream, Cassie.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""Oh god..""</font> She whispered to herself, tears welling up under her eyes. She had tried so hard to forget, to bury it, to drown it in alcohol. She shuddered, a cold feeling washing over her. She was a monster, a murderer. Tears rolled down her cheeks, her mind suddenly feeling it appropriate to show her every face of every person she had killed, murdered.  She didn't bother closing the door as she ran from the bedroom. She navigated the labyrinth  of precariously positioned junk piles, some even viable to be considered towers. A moment later she was standing outside, her front door clicking softly behind her.<br/><br/>On her way out she had grabbed her overcoat, which she slipped on over a white shirt she had swapped out for the one she had found on the floor. The latter was in no condition to be worn. She had also snatched her backpack, which she fished out a set of keys from. She needed to get away, she felt panicked, out of control. She really wasn't in control of her own life, she had murdered those she once loved or respected. For what? A rumor?<br/><br/>A rumor..<br/><div class=""bb-center"">..A rumor..</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">...What rumor?</div><br/><br/>She was halfway down the stairs but she felt frozen, unable to move. <font color=""red"">""The rumor..""</font> She spoke, trying to confirm it to herself. But for the life of her, she couldn't recall where she had heard it. It had been so long ago, and she had so completely given herself to it. It was the only ray of hope in her bleak existence.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""The rumor..""</font> She whispered desperately. The rumor that Immortals were gathering, no, the desire. The need to not feel alone. She remember now, that soul crushing loneliness. She was alone, she had nobody, nothing. She felt just as she did when she was..<br/><br/>When she was a slave.<br/><br/>Her body shook as she cried. An emptiness gathered itself inside of her, growing, consuming her. She stumbled from the steps, the keys to her truck clutched fervently in her hand. She had to leave, to get out. Claustrophobia tore at her. Anxiety overwhelmed her, and all the while that persistent pain in her head, that relentless pounding. She squeezed her eyes shut as she climbed behind the wheel of her truck. Her hands shook as she brought them up to her face. <span class=""bb-i"">Throb.. Throb... Throb..</span>, she whimpered, trying to breath, trying to coax the pain to go away.<br/><br/>The truck roared to life as she turned the key in the ignition. The tires spun, sending a spray of dirt outwards in cone behind it. Distantly somebody shouted angrily, hollow sounds ringing against Alex's ears. Shutout by the tornado of emotion wracking her body. The realization had been too much for her. She felt broken, no.. She had always been broken. The rumor gave her hope, so she didn't have to live with herself. She had convinced herself that she wasn't the only one. Albeit, the information brokers did sell her information. But deep inside, even as she followed the leads, it had never been what she wanted. It had never been enough.<br/><br/>The earth crunched as Alex flew around a corner turn, nearly hitting several pedestrians. The engine whined even higher as she accelerated. She could hardly see through the amount of tears on her face. Her eyes burned as she rubbed at them again. Another angry yell sounded out as she swerved, narrowly avoiding another vehicle traveling along the road. <br/><br/>She finally understood what her dreams had been about. Subconsciously, she known she was a monster. She had murdered in cold blood, all so she could forget herself. <font color=""orange"">""..Alex..""</font> A familiar voice whispered. A recurring demon.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""I'M NOT YOURS ANYMORE,""</font> She screamed.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">"" ..Alex!""</font> A second, older voice yelled.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""I'm so sorry..""</font> She wailed. The voice of Edgar laughed mercilessly, in union with the voice of Greya, as they were overshadowed by yet another voice.<br/><br/><font color=""pink"">""..A-alex..?""</font> The soft hearted voice of Cassie asked.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""I'm .. I'm so sorry..""</font> Alex whispered hoarsely. She couldn't do this anymore. The weight of it all was too heavy. Even Cassie was replaced by other voices, those innocent and those not. Wings, Bandits, Regular People. They all whispered her name, they all laughed at her.<br/><br/><font color=""gainsboro"">""..Alex..""</font> Something whispered, like two rocks grating together.<br/><br/>Her eyes went wide, her mouth worked but nothing came out. She didn't know this voice, but, she did. A feeling washed over her, a feeling she knew. A feeling she was afraid of. A hot rage boiled up beneath her.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""NO!""</font> She screamed, the truck swerving as she tried to maintain control of herself. The voices kept laughing. Hauntingly mocking her as the sensation grew stronger. Another swerve, her vision faltering. She blinked, and saw nothing but blackness, another blink, and the world returned to her. She screamed, slamming her foot onto the brake. She was about to hit somebody, about to take another life.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Vladimira gasped awake to the fading sound of the angry hiss of steam. She glanced about bewilderedly as her heart thudded in her chest like a power hammer, jarred by the change from hellish death to… a rather pleasant place, actually. <br/><br/>She glanced about as her breathing and heart rate slowed to healthier levels, so she wasn’t dying horribly, presumably wasn’t a prisoner, what was she doing h-<br/><br/>Her eyes widened and she fell back with a groan as the recollection of what had precluded her arrival here played in her mind. <span class=""bb-i"">Did I really…? That quickly…? In public…?</span> Her face flushed red as she thought of what might’ve happened, and then turned even darker as she remembered what had actually happened. Instinctively she grabbed for the blanket she lay under to hide herself, but stopped as she realized nobody was there to see her. <span class=""bb-i"">Not like there’s anything she hasn’t seen anyway…</span><br/><br/>She pushed herself up from the bed, eyeing the room’s relative emptiness compared to the rest of the apartment. The place was actually rather nice to be honest, much nicer than the hole in the ground she called home. <br/><br/>She picked up up her clothes from the floor, slipping into them with an audible clinking noise. <span class=""bb-i"">Her clothes are gone, she in the main part of the building?</span> She needed to talk with Alex, last time she’d been given alcohol it’d turned out disastrously. She was hoping for just not making a new mortal enemy, but ideally the other girl would actually be willing to speak with her. <br/><br/>“Alex? You here?” She called out to the apartment, picking her way through the piles of miscellaneous items. She’d have to ask her about some of this stuff, if Alex was still willing to speak with her, a few of the random weapons visible in the piles piqued her interest.<br/><br/>She reached the front door, looking around in growing agitation. “She’s not here.” she mumbled to herself, “She’s not here.”<br/><br/>She looked back and saw the location she remembered Alex leaving her overcoat, only now it was empty. <br/><br/>Her heartbeat skyrocketed, “No no no no no no no no…” she muttered to herself, rushing back to the bedroom and grabbing her own gear, hastily forcing the mask up and over her face. <br/><br/>She rushed down the stairs and onto the streets, looking frantically back and forwards before she noticed the deep ruts in the ground, and the missing truck. She took off sprinting along the direction of the tracks, before tripping over her feet and lying sprawled in the dust after not even ten meters.“Fuck.” she swore to herself as she lurched upright, fingering her mask to make sure it was intact. She sighed, this wouldn’t get her anywhere.<br/><br/>Her pockets and pouches flew open as thin rectangles of metal shot out and coalesced at her feet, seemingly melting together into a smooth sheet hovering in the air, with curious raised sections.<br/><br/>Vladimira stepped onto the board, which swayed slightly at her weight, but stayed afloat. She flexed her hand and little bands of metal shot out from the sheet, wrapping around her feet. Another flex of her hand, and she shot off like a rocket, following the tracks.<br/>_________________<br/><br/>She zipped straight past the gate guard and out into Dust, still following the tracks. Nothing showed itself until she heard a screeching crash from somewhere. She poured on the speed, zipping towards the source of the sound as fast as she could.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Evelina had stopped to take a drink of water from her canteen. The water was subpar at best, having probably been cooked thoroughly in its metal casing, amidst her medical supplies, during yesterday and what had already passed of today. If she had to choose one word to describe the taste of the water, she would probably choose ‘Foul’. One thing was for certain, it wasn’t any clear spring water, not that such a luxury was easy to come by. Heck, if anything springs were probably the rarest thing in the entirety of Dust. Except, perhaps, for Edenites without their coats and cowls.<br/><br/>She kicked the break into place, allowing her bike to stand up without support, and started rummaging through her bags. What little fruit and waffles she had gotten to eat with Lucania and Lucy had been enough for a short while, but her fight with the hollow had made her hungry again, not to mention that fruit could only do so much. Dried meat, however, did far more to her. <br/><br/>She pulled out a piece of dried meat from within, tearing a piece off of it almost before it was out of the bag. It wasn’t that she had anything against fruits, vegetables, and the like, but she far preferred her meat, be it roadkill or whatever else some random guy shot. If it didn’t kill her, it was usually something she would eat. She took another bite, fangs tearing through the tough piece of dried something. <span class=""bb-i"">I think the guy I bought it from said it was a Desert Wolf. Murderous things, but tasty.</span> <br/><br/>Another few bites and the meat was gone, fangs clean and stomach satisfied. She let out a satisfied sigh, preparing to resume her trek towards Russell Town when a rumbling caught her attention. It was a wonder she hadn’t noticed it before, as it was already close enough for her to see the driver. It was heading straight for her at breakneck speed, too fast for any normal person to run, but she wasn’t normal. <br/><br/>She was about to dissolve into light and dash out of the way when she reminded herself of her bike. She registered the fact that were she to dash away, her bike and everything in it would be mowed down by the truck. It was a split second decision, taking place over no more than a fraction of a second. <br/><br/>The truck was closing in.<br/><br/>Evelina raised a hand. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><div class=""bb-h2"">CRASH!</div></span></span><br/><br/>The front end of the truck became a crumpled up block of steel compared to what it was before as it impacted with… nothing. The truck had come to a stop a scant two metres from Evelina, impacting against what seemed like thin air. The dust around them settled and Evelina lowered her hand, the truck having stopped as the engine had been damaged enough upon impact that it no longer worked.<br/><br/>Alex’s panicked heart froze the moment gravity took over, seemingly in slow motion. Metal screeched as her face ricocheted off of the steering wheel, her goggles flying off and a large gash opening on her forehead. Her vision wavered again, the world around her becoming dark and black momentarily. She coughed, a splattering of blood hitting the steering wheel. The driver door, bent as it was, gave way with little effort. Actually falling from it’s heavily damaged hinges. Alex rolled from the cab, which was filling with a deep black smoke, as was the partially smashed engine block. She hit the ground with a thud, knocking the breath from her body, which had been shaky and filled with smoke anyways. She coughed out the toxic residue from her lungs, thankful there was no blood this time. Coherent thoughts starting forming within her rattled mind, <span class=""bb-i"">’What?..’</span> She looked around, catching the lower end of a woman in front of her smashed vehicle. <br/><br/><font color=""red"">”What did you..?”</font> She started, cutting off as she tried to stand.<br/><br/>“I should ask you the same thing,” Evelina muttered, eyes wide and face set in an expression of worry. Large gash in the forehead, several smaller cuts and bruises. She approached quickly, kneeling down to inspect her more carefully. Her trained eyes searched every inch of her body for signs of additional injuries. There were more than a few, however no broken bones and cut arteries, it looked like. But she couldn’t be sure quite yet, however. <br/><br/>“I’ll have to turn you onto your side to see where you’re hurt,” she said, hands still firmly planted on the ground. No quick movements, she reminded herself. People in shock tended to act unpredictably. <span class=""bb-i"">And this is most definitely a case where going into shock would be possible.</span> “Is that okay?” She asked, keeping her voice level and calm, and forcing her expression to become gentler, kinder, and rid of worry. <br/><br/>Alex only felt pain of the crash for a few moments, her adrenaline washing it away, replacing it with a feeling that was becoming harder and harder to fight. She was losing control, that much was apparent. She took a breath, feeling strength return back to her body, feeling her lungs expand widely against her bruised ribs. <font color=""red"">”No, It’s not,”</font> She replied, pushing herself to her feet. She staggered once, catching herself on the side of the truck. Alex looked down at herself, her overcoat was hanging open revealing a multitude of small scratches on her. Other than smashing her face, she felt relatively fine.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I don’t need your help,”</font> She seethed. A small spark of anger building up inside of her. She tried to remind herself that this wasn’t herself, this wasn’t how she was supposed to feel. The other side of her didn’t care, the other side of her was angry. All the pain she had felt was being redirected into a boiling rage that took everything Alex had to fight it. She grit her teeth, looking at the woman before her. This person who had somehow stopped her vehicle, then turned to offer assistance. Was she an.. <span class=""bb-i"">Immortal?</span> her mind questioned, though the woman’s tinted goggles prohibited her from finding any indicator that she was right.  <br/><br/>“Are you sure?” Evelina asked, standing up as well. Every instinct screamed at her to help the other woman, but she forced herself to remain exactly where she was. No matter how much she wanted to alleviate her pain she could not do it if she were not allowed. “I’m a healer, I can help. It won’t cost you if that’s what you’re concerned with.” She put on a small, friendly smile, hoping that it would help. She was fairly certain that she hadn’t yet opened her mouth enough to reveal her canines, nor could she see through her goggles, so unless she was capable of putting two and two together, she was fairly certain that her nature as an Immortal had been discovered. At least, given the nature and suddenness of the crash she found it hard to believe that how she had crashed was the most important thing. <span class=""bb-i"">But if she has, that explains why she doesn’t want any help… And if not, then why?</span> <br/><br/>Vladimira sped over the ground at a disorienting speed, sand kicking up in her wake. She didn’t know why she’d panicked like she had and bolted straight for the street, but it seemed to be a good thing she had, judging by the depth of the tracks and the sound of a crash. <span class=""bb-i"">Hope she’s not dead, or something worse.</span> The heat of the desert was baking her, she usually traveled in the darker hours of the day to avoid heat stroke, but she didn’t have that luxury at the moment. <br/><br/>She crested a small hill, her momentum sending her rocketing forward as she did so. With a quick hand movement she “grabbed” the metal sheet she was riding and held it -and herself by extension- in place.<br/><br/>Dropping back down, Vladimira righted herself and glanced about to find the tracks. She was sure she’d be getting close now, that crash hadn’t sounded too far off…<br/><br/>Oh, there it was. The truck was clearly evident against the relatively flat landscape. <span class=""bb-i"">What did it hit though? I don’t see anything big enough...</span><br/><br/>She shot off like a rocket towards the vehicle, surroundings blurring into indistinguishable smears of dull color with her speed. There was someone who looked unmistakably like Alex, and another person who stood near her.<br/><br/>She burst into the scene in a stumbling fall, pushing herself to her feet as the sheet of metal seemed to melt and hover about her head in small, wickedly sharp looking spikes. “What happened here?” She demanded.<br/><br/>Alex looked behind herself bewilderedly as Vladimira arrived, a flood of new emotions arriving with her. Shame and regret burned upon her cheeks, but something else distracted her from that.<span class=""bb-i"">..Who is that with her?..</span> Alex thought, wiping the blood from her eyes. A second later the man’s smiling face came into clarity, contorted with laughter. Then they were everywhere, the ghosts of everyone she had killed; Edgar, Cassie, Bandits, Slaves, Mothers, Fathers..; They crowded around her, each of their expressions seeming to ask <span class=""bb-i"">’Why?’</span>. Their haunted eyes seemed to tear away at her, until they pierced her soul. <br/><br/><font color=""red"">”GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!”</font> Alex screamed, a torrent of lightning flying from her blood covered hand, smashing into the ground with enough force to send bits of earth and rock smoldering through the air. <br/><br/>Evelina kept her distance from the white haired woman, although her eyes never left her. She had had difficult patients before, but none like this. There were those who were reluctant to be helped by an immortal, of course, but there weren’t yet any who had so flatly denied any offer of help. Let alone sounded borderline hostile while telling her.<br/><br/>“Is something the matter?” She asked carefully. “Look, I’m no—” A sudden appearance and demanding question interrupted her, followed by a decidedly lethal looking metallic spikes pointed at her. She turned slowly to look at the second stranger she had met today, making sure to keep her hands straight down her sides, and nowhere near her gun or the handle of her sword to show that she was no threat. <br/><br/>“She crashed,” she said, warily eyeing the large metal shards. “I’m a healer so I offered to help her, but she refused.” She trailed off then, waiting either for a response, or thinking of what else to say to diffuse the steadily more volatile situation. She opened her mouth, about to say something, but a scream and an explosion of sand and rick interrupted her. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!”</span><br/><br/>Evelina reacted more on instinct than anything else, throwing out her consciousness to the area around her, solidifying the light around her and the iron-wielding woman to the point where the sand and lightning was kept at a safe distance. <br/><br/>“Calm down!” She urged, voice level although she was starting to get nervous on the inside. <span class=""bb-i"">Immortal, and lightning it looks like. I’m not sure if I could defend against that for long.</span> “We’re not going to hurt you—” she shot the ironclad woman a meaningful look “—so please, don’t act rashly!” <br/><br/>Vladimira scrambled back from the lightning, eyes wide. “Чё за галима?!”  She hadn’t been expecting Alex to lash out like that, let alone shoot lightning. <br/><br/>Though… something had stopped the sand and lightning, an invisible barrier or something. She put it out of her mind for the moment, she could search for whatever the source of magical walls was later. <br/><br/>“I wasn’t planning on hurting her, actually I was looking for her… seems she might not share that sentiment though.” She grumbled to the other woman, glancing at her. She let the spikes orbiting her head ‘melt’ down and flow into her various pockets. “What happened? More detail.”<br/><br/>The world was a blur to Alex as her focus shattered. There was a deep, emotional pain deep within her heart, so much so that she finally just let go. She gave up. Almost immediately the feeling of anger, of pure rage consumed her, overwhelming her personality. Her vision darkened as she lost concentration, instead, pulling inside herself mentally. She couldn’t fight it anymore, she had lost the strength, the will, to continue on. A tear rolled down her cheek as she let go.<br/><br/>The electricity picked up around her, arcs of blue lightning warping around her body in a volatile spin. It snaked out of her, coiling around her arms. It fluctuated through her hair, which rose from the sheer force of the static her energy was given off. Her eyes changed from their pure white state, to completely black orbs. And as her new self regained proper footing and control, blackened veins began to spread along her arms and face, spider webbing from her eyes. She was beyond speech at this point, beyond control.<br/><br/>Her hand shot out suddenly, tearing from her hand in a crackling torrent of hot energy. The arc parted through the dust, smashing into the invisible barrier Evelina had put up to protect Vladimira. Alex sneered, firing another arc, a quick flash of light, and another hollow boom as it smashed into the barrier once more.<br/><br/>Vladimira backpedaled further as the lightning struck whatever invisible wall was in front of her. Her pockets flew open again, along with her rucksack, to form a crude Faraday Suit around herself. She glanced to her side, noting the other woman had no protection. <br/><br/>She made a motion towards the ruined truck, the steel parts losing their form and flowing towards her. With another few deft motions she forced the metal into another cage in front of the stranger. “It’s a Faraday cage! It’ll keep you from being electrocuted!” She shouted over the noise. “Just stay behind it!”<br/><br/>Evelina grimaced, lips pressed thin and eyes wide. She hadn’t expected to be attacked, let alone with such viciousness or bloodthirst. <span class=""bb-i"">Something’s not right.</span> She put more effort into her barrier, strengthening it further. It mustn’t break, could not break. If it did she’d die instantly. Just when the strain was becoming more than she was comfortable with a cage of iron touched down in front of her, the metal-wielding Immortal shouting at her that it’d keep her from getting roasted. <br/><br/>She gave her a shallow nod and relaxed her barrier, letting it fade in strength until the lightning bolt broke through it and hit the cage. The cage held firm, leading the electricity into the ground. <br/><br/>“She looks like the third stage of the Sickness!” She said loudly to the other. “I’ve never seen anything like this before. Is she becoming a hollow?” She didn’t know. By gods, she didn’t know, and for someone who usually knew the answer to every question asked of her it was terrifying. <br/><br/>“I have no idea!” Vladimira shouted back, keeping her eyes on… Alex, just in case she made a lunge at them. “<span class=""bb-b"">What happened?!</span> She yelled, “Surely something happened to make her this angry or… whatever caused this!” She ran over to the woman so they could hear each other, “I wouldn’t think she could become a Hollow, or any Immortal could for that matter!” She looked uneasily at Alex, “I’d advise a tactical advance in the opposite direction right about now, personally.”<br/><br/>Alex’s head rolled back as she let out a primal howl of rage, the energy whirling around her seeming to pick up in intensity. Arcs of electricity, albeit smaller, fired off from her body haphazardly, smashing into the remains of the truck and the earth around her, throwing up small columns of dust and dirt. She turned as the blackened veins continued to spread across her body, sneering towards the two woman behind their metal barriers. Alex’s hands  rose, their proximity close enough for the two streams of lightning to merge together into a large, continuous blast. The energy smashed into the metal barriers, dispersing and spreading around the quickly heating metal. All caution was thrown to the wind as her heart rate increased, it was of little concern to her. She was nothing more than the manifested vessel of wrath.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Translations and pronunciations"" type=""button"">Translations and pronunciations [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Чё за галима?! - What the fuck?! - chyo za ga-lima?!<br/><br/>Ад - Hell - Ad<br/><br/>Дерьмо! - Shit! - Derr-mo!<br/><br/>Совкуоплятьшому му дак! - Fucking asshole! - Sovkuoplyatshomu mudak!)</div></div><br/></div>"
148,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-15 09:50:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""> Incandescent light created a soft luminous glow throughout the long stretch of halls, tiled in white linoleum and encompassed by sleek metallic walls. Silence hung heavily here, only off put by the sounds of footsteps reverberating softly off of the walls. Not even the soft hum of electricity was present, It felt as if this space hung between the balance of reality, and warped space, as if it were peculiar to exist at all. Jon straightened his uniform nervously, feeling hot even though precise intervals of vents kept him cool with gentle breezes, too soft to even ruffle his meticulously combed hair. He adjusting his clothing again, fretting over his appearance. Though, admittedly, he wasn't sure how he was supposed to look on a morning such as this. That hadn't kept him from ironing his clothes however, twice, or polishing his boots, also twice. In fact, he had spent most of his night free with his owns thoughts, finding purpose in preparing himself for a summons that may not come as soon as he had wished.<br/><br/>Thankfully, it had. A messenger had arrived in the early gray of the coming dawn, sweat laden upon his brow with the urgency of the information he held. A tightly sealed envelope, pressed with a wax seal and wrapped in red string was thrust into his hands. The messenger, dressed in the maroon robes of the Motum Messengers, was quick to leave. The emblem pressed onto the shoulder of his clothes took only a moment to fade as the man hurried onto his next delivery. Jon held the letter in his hands, the smooth vanilla paper felt like a lead weight in his hands. The potential for everything he had ever wanted rested with whatever was inside this envelope. His hopes, his dreams, his yearning to be a better soldier, to change the corruption and greed. In a way, his life rested between the perfectly creased folds of this tiny, insignificant thing, his fate resting within the ink pressed into its pages.<br/><br/>He had barely taken a third breath before his hands tore away the wrapping, leaving him only with the folded paper hidden within. He wasted no time, flipping open it's pages, the blank wax seal laying on the ground, the string slowly drifting away upon a phantom breeze. A wide smile spread on Jon's face as he read the two lines repeatedly, standing on his porch in nothing but a t-shirt and briefs. A time, and a set of coordinates. Nothing else. There was no way to confirm this was the message he was supposed to receive, but on the other hand, he didn't need to have it confirmed.<br/><br/>It took him a handful of minutes to throw on his normal uniform and lock his apartment. He walked briskly, avoiding running only because the heat was already setting upon the land and he didn't want to arrive disheveled. He found resisting the urge to run towards his destination difficult. His mind was racing, and the deep breathes he forced himself to take did little to soothe him.<br/><br/>Now, after racing across the desert in a pristine Humvee colored to blend with the sand, Jon found himself deep within a facility set against the base of Mount Nike. A scientist walked beside him, a rather pretty one at that. Her heels clicked against the floor as she walked, at a pace that could match any soldier's. She was the walking stereotype of science; constantly adjusting her glasses, a clipboard thick with papers clutched to her chest, a pen in her ear, and her hair in a tight, midnight black bun. Jon found all of that rather attractive, probably due to his upbringing. But he wasn't about to try any moves on her, he probably didn't even have high enough clearance to date her.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Stop fussing, we're almost there.”</font> She said sternly, looking up at Jon. She was quite a bit shorter than he was, but the glare focusing on him through her glasses more than made up for it. She had that very obvious no-nonsense demeanor about her. Jon chose not to reply to her, instead he nodded, firmly letting his hands rest at his sides as the progressed further into the complex. The hallway seemed to stretch on forever as he passed door after door, like metal guardians silently watching him progress down the gleaming path of fate. He was excited, yet, he was also incredibly nervous. Not just because of the presence of such prestigious military personnel, or a location he had not the slightest clue existed. He was more worried about life, and death. It was very possible that he could die tonight, even though he has no desire to do so. But to live, would mean an incredible step for science, and for the wings.<br/><br/>Truth be told, this wasn't all originally his idea. He had heard something about the White Coats doing experiments on Immortals, all under the book of course. He had taken a great risk talking to the general, but you can't win if you don't play. He had put two and two together after hearing the rumors, that and with the report he had read on the A.R.K Terminals, well, you can't win if you don't play. And Jon loved winning.<br/><br/>His thoughts were interrupted as he and the scientist stopped before a pair of large metal doors. Above them a camera hummed as it dropped it's mechanical gaze downwards, until it was pointed at them. A moment later and a loud buzz and the doors opened. Jon noticed a plate off to the side as he was walking in; “Observation Deck C”. 'This place must be huge,' he thought to himself as he crossed the threshold.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Ah, Jonathan, come sit,”</font> General Paxton Bradley announced as he settled down into a leather chair with thick cushions. A column of thick smoke drifted upwards from his darkened silhouette, and the glint of a ornate glass filled with amber liquid made it evident he was drinking.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”General, Sir,”</font> Jonathan saluted briefly, before joining the General in an adjacent chair. A second glass sat near him, already filled. Next to the glass sat an open package of cigarettes, accompanied by a lighter. Jon smiled to himself, his worries melting away some, as he picked up the glass and took a sip.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”You're in for a real treat Jon, The Brains have been working on this for some time,”</font> The General spoke through a thick cloud of smoke, settling back into his chair. Before the two of them a large section was replaced with what looked to be extremely thick glass, covered from the other side by linked metal plates. Other than the two chairs, and the small table between them, nothing else existed within the room than a terminal stand set off towards the right.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”I believe I can explain that better.”</font> A voice spoke from behind Jon, causing him to pause from lightning the cigarette in his mouth to turn and look at the newcomer. A tall man, with a pointed nose and a sharp look about him walked across the room towards the terminal. The man brushed a hand through his chaotic, raven black hair, glancing towards Jon.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”You should first see what we're about to put into you,”</font> The man stated, quite pointedly without any real emotion in his voice.<br/><br/>His fingers flashed across the terminal's keyboard, entering a series of commands and passwords. Jon sat back, awaiting the show as he took a long drag of calming, nicotine laced smoke into his lungs. He exhaled, turning towards the General.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Excuse me General Bradley Sir, yesterday you mentioned something about my brother?”</font> Jon asked, just remembering the thought himself. Though now, he was quite curious what his brother had to do with all of this.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”I think I may be of help here,”</font> A familiar voice spoke as the doors buzzed open once again. The squeaking wheels of a metal gurney also accompanied the newest arrival. Jon didn't need to get up to identify him, however, he did anyways. A wide smile spread across his face, and a warmth filled his heart, <font color=""cyan"">”Grayson... it has been some time,”</font> Jon said, forcing himself to maintain a neutral composure.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Don't be such a Stiff Jon, I promise not to look.”</font> Paxton chimed in, chuckling to himself.<br/><br/>At that Jon let his wall down, emotion taking over. He ran over and swept his little brother up in a large hug. The squealing, laughing teen fought back playfully.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Hey! Put me down you brute!”</font> Grayson teased as he laughed mirthfully. Jon did set him down, but his hands remained on his shoulders as he looked Grayson in the eyes, studying him.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Look how you've grown! You're starting to look just like Dad,”</font> He said, laughing and ruffling his younger brother's hair.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”If I live to get that old, please, just kill me,”</font> Grayson responded, sending them both into fits of laughter.<br/><br/>The tall, dark haired scientists cleared his throat, obviously impatient for things to move along.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”I believe Doctor Nevvo would like to move things along,”</font> The woman who had accompanied Jon into the room said.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Thank you Doctor Adison. Grayson? If you don't mind.”</font> Nevvo said, quirking an eyebrow as he gestured to the metal gurney Grayson had wheeled in. Jon took his first good look at the metal cart, composed of four wheels, a push bar, and two shelves. On either shelf similar black cases rested, made from thickened metal and secured by a keypad lock.<br/><br/>Grayson cleared his throat, adjusting his lab coat before beginning, <font color=""orangered"">“In Accordance to project Kyrios, my team and I have developed the equipment you'll be using upon successful completion of the symbioses process.”</font> Jon barely had time to actually process the words before Grayson continued.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”The developed armor has already been tested, and will be displayed later. However, here I have two examples of the weaponry that will be provided.”</font> Grayson said, sounding very formal as he punched in the code to unlock the first case. He flipped the lid back, revealing a padded interior housing an array of gadgetry. Among them an assortment of metallic canisters, each with a pull pin.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Here we have, Incendiary, Concussive, and Fragmentation Grenades,”</font> He gestured to each one in turn, <font color=""orangered"">”This here however, is an explosive putty.”</font><br/><br/>Grayson opened a protective satchel casing, revealing a cream colored putty. He scooped some of it up, rolling it into a ball. <font color=""orangered"">”This is C-5 explosive putty, it needs a spark or an open flame to ignite, no amount of kinetic force can set it off,”</font> He proved his last statement by throwing the ball at the wall behind him. It made a loud 'SPLCH” as it stuck to the wall, losing its round shape. Jon stuck a finger in the putty curiously. It had a consistency like firm toothpaste.<br/><font color=""orangered"">”These are the ignition devices, you have timed;”</font> He gestured to a black cylinder, with chrome colored claw feet and a dial on the top,<font color=""orangered"">”These timers can be set up to one hour.”</font> He gesture to the next set of cylinders, only slightly different, <font color=""orangered"">”These have an antenna instead of a dial. They ignite when the signal from your armor's wrist piece is received. These metal claws here, are designed to bind with the putty after a few seconds, to ensure firm placement. Also remember, if all else fails, an open spark or flame will also ignite the putty, as I stated earlier.”</font> Grayson took a breath, his cheeks slightly flushed. Jon smiled and nodded towards him comfortingly, trying to make it obvious that he felt Grayson was doing a good job.<br/><br/>Doctor Nevvo however, seemed less pleased as he cleared his throat once more. Grayson snapped the first case closed, and swapped it with the second case from the undercarriage. <font color=""orangered"">”This,”</font> He began, punching in a different code to open this case, <font color=""orangered"">”Is a modified Scar-H combat rifle. It comes equipped with variable zoom and optic range finder, burst and single shot, laser dot, mounted flashlight, and features low recoil with high precision. It utilizes forty-five round magazines, firing standard 7.62x51mm rounds.”</font><br/><br/>Jon eyed the rifle longingly. It was beautiful. It was perhaps, the most beautiful gun he had ever laid his eyes upon. <font color=""cyan"">”Fancy Gun, and a vigilante revolver?”</font> He queried, motioning towards the long barreled revolver also set within the case.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Yes, a present from Mom and Dad.”</font> Grayson replied.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Yes, yes, that's all very sweet, but there is a lot to do. Your seat, Jon.”</font> Doctor Nevvo spoke, irritation heavy in his voice. Apparently he was used to the fast paced lifestyle of science and intrigue, something Jon had been familiar with in his earlier years as a child. He winked at Grayson, shaking his hand, <font color=""cyan"">”Thank you, Doctor Grayson,”</font> causing the teen to go red in his face as Jon turned to take his seat once more.<br/><br/>A puff of air let out as Jon planted himself once more in his seat. The cigarette he had been holding had burned out without him noticing. That was of no matter, as Jon simply took another.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Doctor Nevvo and I,”</font> Doctor Adison began,<font color=""greenyellow"">”Have been leading the team in Hollow research. More specifically, we've finally been able to find out what makes the Immortals so.. unique. They're not gifted warriors, or magicians. They have a symbiotic relationship with a variant strain of the Sickness. It attaches to the heart, and replicates itself onto the red blood cells, unlike the sickness, which doesn't even go near the red blood cells until the very end stage.</font><br/><br/>Doctor Adison walked towards the glass, still covered by the protective metal screen, <font color=""greenyellow"">”An Immortal does not use the power, rather he thinks about using it and the Spark creates the phenomena in accordance with the neural patterns that the host is emitting. Prolonged use increases the heart rate, which increases the blood flow, which increases the need for the Spark to replicate itself on the higher rate of cells passing through the heart. Blood circulates throughout the body in about one minute, so from this we concur that the Spark's replications only survive that long. Or, there are speculations that use of the power actually kills the replications, which would result in the need for a faster circulation and replication, putting more strain on the heart. Prolonged use results in heart failure, killing both the host and the spark, normally.”</font><br/><br/>She motions towards Doctor Nevvo, who inputs the final command into the terminal. The metal screen squeals loudly as it is pulled back into the ceiling, revealing a room practically glowing fluorescent white. Nothing exists but a stretcher, bolted to the floor, and a door. On the stretcher a man fights his restraints, cursing and yelling excessively. Doctor Adison nods towards Doctor Nevvo once more, this time muting the noise coming from within the chamber.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”We've learned that the Spark is contracted by the host, but really develops dependently based on extreme conditions. A host with the spark who finds themselves drowning, may develop an affinity for water, adapting to it as the Spark allows. Here, we have the test subject, and here,”</font> She paused. Doctor Nevvo, taking the cue, inputs another series of commands.<br/><br/>From the ceiling a thick glass barrier descends around the patient, his eyes wide with fear. <font color=""cyan"">”What is that?”</font> Jon asks, leaning forward in his chair, peering through a recently formed cloud of smoke.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”That is a protective barrier, much like the one separating us from the other room,”</font> Doctor Adison held up a hand, cutting off Jon before he could even ask his half formed question, <font color=""greenyellow"">”Just watch.”</font><br/><br/>Another series of taps from the terminal, resulting in the farthest wall of the containment room to shift. A sliver of a line parts down the direct center of it, pulling the two halves apart slowly. The revealed room is pitch black, so dark that the luminescent white lights of the patient's room barely penetrates the darkness. A loud whir resounds throughout the observation deck. Jon leans a little closer curiously, watching the back end of the hidden room come closer.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Is that wall moving closer?”</font> Jon asks, ashing his cigarette on the floor, as the General had been doing.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Mmn, Yes. It's pushing the spark out of it's hiding place. It really prefers the darkness.”</font> Nevvo confirmed.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”The spark?..”</font> Jon let the question hang, his curiosity firmly grabbed as the wall moved closer. It almost seemed as if there was a darker patch of.. well, darkness. He squinted, trying to make out the shape. He leaned a little closer, his breath frozen as he stared at the slightly wiggling mass.<br/><br/>An ear shattering screech tore through the room, causing its occupants to cry out in pain, excluding Doctor Adison and Doctor Nevvo, who seemed prepared for such a thing, merely grimacing as the horrible sound echoed through the rooms. The wall came flush and the wiggling black mass flashed across the room, smashing into the viewing window violently with an audible bang. Jon stared at it open mouthed, it's wispy form seemed almost ethereal. In fact, it looked almost, human.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”What you're looking at, is the mature form of the Spark, without its symbiotic state,”</font> Doctor Nevvo said, walking up towards the glass. The smokey black creature pounded relentlessly on the glass, as if focused on Doctor Nevvo himself. Each strike was accompanied by a loud bang, and every time Jon's heart jumped a little bit.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”My God Nevvo, you said progress, but this is astounding,”</font> General Bradley exclaimed, breaking his silence.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Quite,”</font> Nevvo replied. <font color=""springgreen"">”The Spark needs a symbiotic relationship with us to grow and mature, but once achieved, is unable to separate itself. However, we achieved this using a thermonuclear gene splicer.”</font><br/><br/>The Spark flashed across the containment room once more, throwing itself against the glass barrier between those watching it, and itself, or rather, the barrier separating it and Nevvo. It stopped suddenly, it's form shifting in the blink of an eye as it noticed the patient, who had all but been silent with fear. It screamed once more, crossing the distance faster than Jon's eyes could follow.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”The Spark has a need, an attraction, to rejoin with its host. This desire is atomic, and cannot be resisted by either party should they come into close proximity. Without another host the Spark will die, it's image becoming less clear, like an unstable video signal, until it fades away entirely. We have removed the original host, which is why the Spark has such a violent nature, all it wants is to rejoin, to live. However, it can bond with a new host, but only under extreme conditions. These conditions do not need to be met for it to rejoin with its previous host, and the phenomena associated between them will be... rekindled.”</font><br/><br/>Doctor Adison let her fingers trail across the glass, an almost motherly look upon her face. <font color=""greenyellow"">”We're unable to discern what the phenomena has to do with the symbiotic relationship. But, apart, neither the Spark nor the prior Host can utilize the phenomena. If a new host, and the Spark, are both placed under an extreme condition in close proximity, they will bond, and form a new phenomena. Watch.”</font><br/><br/>Jon's eyes widened as the glass barrier rose once more into the ceiling, leaving the restrained man vulnerable. The Spark stopped, its body seeming to quiver at the new state of affairs. It waited. <font color=""springgreen"">”This Spark has been split, and bonded three times previous. We have no inclinations that this should not yield the same result. However, the Spark is almost ethereal, it has the consistency of smoke, and the room must remain air tight.”</font><br/><br/>The observation deck was silent as everybody watched. The only audible noises were that of their breath, and the loud tap of Nevvo entering a command into the terminal. A second later and the containment room filled with roiling waves of fire. The speakers were obviously muted as the man screamed in pain. Jon watched as the fire burned away the man's skin, watched as the man clawed at his own eyes. The restraints burnt away and the man fell to the floor, rolling in agony. The Spark however, seemed entirely unaffected, as it walked closer to the man. It sighed loudly, its airy voice transmitting through the soundless speakers, as it dissolved into trails of smoke which entered into the burning man's body.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”How can we hear it?”</font> Jon asked, only slightly disturbed by the sight before him. Watching a man burnt alive wasn't so different from watching one being torn to pieces by a hollow.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”We're not sure, it's.. <span class=""bb-i"">voice</span>.. transmits across electrical frequencies, even if the speaker is broken,”</font> Doctor Adison revealed, utterly fascinated by the scene before her.<br/><br/>Eventually the man stopped spasming, at which point Jon presumed he had died. He sat back in his chair, taking a long drag from a freshly lit cigarette. He shot a quick glance towards Grayson, who seemed to be doing his best to steel himself from his emotions. Though, the teen still looked sick to his stomach. <font color=""orangered"">”Excuse me,”</font> Grayson murmured, wheeling the cart away as he exited the room, sparking a chuckle from the General.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”He’s still young, I bet you’re proud of him,”</font> Paxton commented through a slate gray cloud forming around his head.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I am,”</font> Jon agreed, watching the scene with a quiet resolve. The man had finally stopped moving. That, however, only lasted a moment. Jon felt himself compelled to lean closer once more as the body began moving.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Hm,”</font> The General added, a finger tapping against his chin as he curiously watched the scene unfold.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”As you can see,”</font> Doctor Nevvo started, explaining what was happening,<font color=""springgreen"">”We’ve put the Spark in an extreme environment, with an available host. Though not preferable to the Spark, from what we’ve observed, its intelligence allows it to comprehend the situation its in. We’re not sure how intelligent these things actually are.”</font> <br/><br/>As Nevvo spoke, the man stood up. His skin was cracked like hot, molten earth, and his eyes actually admitted small flames. He laughed hysterically, obviously the trauma of what had just happened still left him in a state of shock. Nevvo tapped his fingers across the terminal, killing the inferno filling the observation room. Despite that, the test subject still remained ablaze. He seemed to realize what was happening as he stuck a blackened palm towards the viewing windown. A jet of fire expelled from his hand, blasting against the clear glass surface of the window, though it left no visible marks.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Don’t worry,”</font> Doctor Adison said through a smile as she replaced Nevvo at the terminal,<font color=""greenyellow"">”We’re perfectly safe”</font><br/><br/>Nevvo crossed the cold white floor to the window, a pattern of intrigue working across his face. <font color=""springgreen"">”It’s definitely learning..”</font> He murmured, his chin resting in his hand, the adjacent elbow held in a relaxed posture by the opposite hand.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”What was that?”</font> Jon asked, unable to make out clearly what Nevvo was mumbling.<br/><br/>Doctor Nevvo looked up, a twitch of irritation pulling at his eyes as Jon pulled him from his thoughts,<font color=""springgreen"">”What? Oh, No, Nothing.”</font><br/><br/>Jon’s curiosity was turned away from Nevvo as a metal fence rose up from the very edges of the floor. He also noted that the medical gurney the subject had been strapped to was gone. The man stopped what he was doing, watching the fence as it came closed to him. The subject threw his head back, howling with ferocity as he attacked the fence will all he had.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”It seems this subject is rejecting the Spark..”</font> Nevvo mused quietly to himself. Jon didn’t bother asking him what this meant, his attention was focused on the metal fence that was now pressed tightly against the man to the point where he could no longer move his limbs without touching it.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Now, using a combination of electromagnetic pulses to trigger a key sequence of neural events, and our thermonuclear splicer..”</font> Addison commented, letting the last end of her sentence trail off as she focused on the terminal. The door leading into the room opened, and a figure in a white hazmat suit entered. The subject snarled, a wave of firing smashing against the fence.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”An electrostatic barrier, clever,”</font> The General mused. Jon had no idea General Bradley had any scientific inclination whatsoever, but he was thankful for the explanation. Even if he didn’t truly understand it. The hazmat person pressed a small, metallic looking through the fence. Jon’s trained eye noticed the dart it fired into the subject, if only briefly. It took mere seconds for the subject to slump against the fence, unconscious. The hazmat scientist produced a set of diodes, sticking them to the unconscious subject’s cranium. Both of the diodes had long wires, with the hazmat scientist clipped to the fence.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Using electricity channeled through the fence we can stimulate the subject with a high powered current. The diodes will allow us to direct bursts of electricity to mimic a neural pattern needed for separation,”</font> Doctor Addison said. She pressed a key and the fence lit up with a fizzle of blue energy. The subject didn’t stay unconscious for long as his eyes flew open, his body frozen with the current passing throughout his body.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”There’s something more to this Spark we’ve been unable to figure out. It responds to a neural pattern that is closely associated with those one exhibits while sleeping, or meditating. When the conscious is in a relaxed, or dormant state,”</font> Nevvo said. Jon wasn’t quite sure if he was explaining for his sake, or if Nevvo was simply talking to himself.<br/><br/>Before Jon had a chance to look away from Nevvo and impossibly bright flash blinded his sight. <br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Splice complete,”</font> Addison reported.<br/><br/>Jon blinked rapidly, willing away the black spots dancing about in his vision. As focused back on the observation room, which looked once more as it did when he had first arrived, but without the restraints and gurney. Which no longer seemed to be needed, as the subject’s corpse was currently sprawled out on the floor. Huddled against one side of the room was the Spark, once more in it’s ghostly form. The back wall cracked open, revealing the dark room. Jon barely saw the Spark moved as it flashed across the distance and into the reclusive darkness.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”I am highly impressed, and as soon as we are done here you’re funding is going to be approved for the next year,”</font> General Bradley said, clapping a very soft and slow rhythm. <br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Thank you General Bradley, Sir, You don’t know what this means to us,”</font> Doctor Adison said breathlessly, showing the first real emotion Jon had seen since meeting her.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”That may be true. but I know what this means to me,”</font> The General said, wearing a sly grin.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Of course sir, we’re already working on a way for the process to be less fatal,”</font> Adison admitted, excitement evident in her voice. Apparently funding was a big deal to her.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Nevermind that. I want you to devote more focus on replicating different phenomena. I understand at the moment you have this fire and ice theme going on?”</font> He asked.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Mmnh, Yes. We can create the same environment using cryofreeze. It’s danger is exponentially more than that of the fire, as the latter is a much slower process. Though, with careful calculation-”</font><br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”And a stroke of luck?”</font> Jon interrupted.<br/><br/>Doctor Nevvo shot him a glare that could possibly kill a small mammal, <font color=""springgreen"">”We’re scientists Jon, we don’t believe in luck,” He spat venomously.</font> <br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Good. Sign the Wraiths up for Cryo, the application of such a thing is of far higher value,”</font> The General ordered.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Yes sir.”</font><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”As you wish.”</font><br/><br/>The two scientists spoke almost in unison as they nodded. A second later they exited the room with urgency in their strides. Jon figured there was some preparation to be done, he doubted they were going to use a room like the one he had spent the last few hours observing. A cold feeling was set in his stomach, but he had learned to ignore his fear a long time ago, especially when excitement and adrenaline were pouring through his veins.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Scared Jon?”</font> The General asked, looking at him.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”No Sir. Excited,”</font> Jon replied.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Good, that’s what I like to hear soldier.”</font></div>"

His arms were shaking, extended like this at odd angles and holding the quarterstaff across his body, holding the other boys' weapon at bay. They were both pressing as hard as they could, but both seemed to lack the strength to break the other's guard. <br/><br/>""Do you fear death?"" <br/><br/>The tow-headed boy repeated the question. Their faces were very close, nearly pressed up against each other like their weapons. Regardless, the blood rushing in Arcus' ears made it difficult for him to hear his opponent. That, and the gathering crowd continued to emit hoops and hollars. <br/><br/>""No- I do not fear death."" Arcus offered in response, a bit gasped for air. He thought it was odd a boy equal his age would ask such a question and he began to wonder his fate should he lose this battle. He felt his feet begin to slide against the sand beneath him and he summoned what little strength he had left to push back against the other boy. They were once again in a stalemate. <br/><br/>Neither boy spoke another word as teeth were grit for the next several moments- but Arcus saw it. It was subtle, but Arcus looked in the right place at the right time and saw the other boy shift weight from his back leg to his front- he was getting tired. <br/><br/>Arcus' next move was risky- pushing with his right leg he leaped to the left- not far enough. He felt the harsh and heavy blow of a weighted quarterstaff strike his knee. Arcus fought through the pain- this was his chance to win. Landing with his left leg he swept his staff at his opponents back thigh. He heard a satisfying crack as his blow connected; his platinum-haired opponent fell to the ground and yelped in pain, dropping his staff. Arcus, thrilled with the idea of total victory, continued the assault and swung at the other thigh, as well- several hits that one took, to hear the crack. The boy continued to yelp and cry out in pain, but Arcus continued his flurry of blows, moving from striking the thighs, to the shins, to the feet...<br/><br/>A white flash.<br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Do you fear death?""</font> <br/><br/>This time the voice behind the question was Arcus'- a mans voice, not a boys. He glared down at the man beneath him, battered and bruised, hands grasping the boot that was placed on his throat. The victim's brown eyes met Arcus' teal ones and for a moment they glared hard at him. <br/><br/>""I do not fear death."" A voice rasped from beneath the rag that this man wore as a mask. Arcus lowered his own- an old welder's mask- and, stepping back, raised his hammer, who his fellow Legion comrades had named Brute; Arcus brought the hammer down...<br/><br/>A white flash.<br/><br/>He lay and stare up at the sky, sore muscles pulsing and convulsing and the dirt and sand offering no comfort for the warrior. His breathing was becoming raspy and struggled, and each wispy exhale led to less feeling in his limbs. He was growing cold, but the sun was shining above. He felt a sense of peace slowly creeping from his extremities as his vision began to fade at his peripherals. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Do you fear death?""</font><br/><br/>He didn't know where the voice came from, or whose it was. But it sounded like peace. It sounded like safety. It sounded like warmth. He continued to stare into the sky, he dare not move a muscle, but when one last shot of pain from the wound near his left hip gave him one last breath, he replied in a ghostly whisper:<br/><br/>""I do fear death; but I wholly accept him.""</span><br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Teal eyes flickered open to a dusty ceiling lit by a pale sun. <br/><br/>""Ah, there ye'are. You were thrashin' again."" the mustachioed face next to him beamed with a smile. He stood from the chair he had apparently been sitting in and tossed Arcus' large satchel at him, who sat up with a start to catch it. Strange, it felt heavier than normal. Had he stolen his belongings? <br/><br/>""Wanted ta' say thanks again for savin' my life yesterday- left a couple'a things in there for ya'."" <br/><br/>He apparently caught wind of Arcus' angry gaze for he started to slowly back towards the door of the small room, his thick boots clunking loudly with each gradual step. <br/><br/>""Uh, enjoy yourself. In Fairbury, I mean. Don't get too used to the green."" <br/><br/>The man tipped his wide brimmed hat and flashed the smile Arcus had seen enough of; earned another scowl from the burly dark-skinned man when he slammed the door. Arcus clawed at his scraggly beard and leathery face- it was nice to sleep in a bed after so long, but the sheets on this glorified plank of plywood made his skin crawl and itch. He tiredly retrieved a flask- one of many- from his satchel that had water in it and splashed his face- in all his years as a warrior, a gladiator, a slayer of many, Arcus could never fight morning grogginess. His eyelids still felt like they were sandbags as he turned to hang his legs over the side of the bed- his body emitting more creaks and moans than the floor did as he placed his dirt-caked feet on them. His mind drifted to the events of his dream- moments of his life, of course. A recurring theme of his dreams recently. This one seemed to deal with death- he'd write it down later, as he had gotten used to doing as he traveled. Normally his dreams weren't <span class=""bb-i"">themed</span>, but when they were Arcus liked to think they were thought provoking. His ""journal"" was full of little blurbs describing his dreams or his thoughts on them, or the topics thereof. <br/><br/>Arcus' knees popped as he stood and stretched his aching back. He glanced around his simple temporary abode, which was about as <span class=""bb-i"">simple</span> as it could get, consisting of only a single bed, a small table, a chair, and one window overlooking the main dirt-packed road of Fairbury. There weren't even any curtains. Arcus' stretches continued to his legs and hips, which he was extra careful of, with the wound on his lower left abdomen. But he had overextended a stretch and a jolt of pain fired from the ugly cleft. Arcus cussed and stopped his stretches- it was going to be a long day.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Stepping outside onto the streets of Fairbury was a welcome change of scenery from the past months- with everything so green and full of life. Not just the scenery, but the people, too. Many wore white coats and carried clipboards, though there was equally as many dressed in rather fine drapery, better looking than anything Arcus had seen, at least. His presence was a bit of a shock to both parties, Arcus wasn't used to such niceties and the denizens of Fairbury certainly weren't used to a dying ex-Forsaken Warlord carrying a sawbladed sledgehammer in their midst; though, that wasn't the story Arcus had told them. No, to the citizens of Fairbury Arcus wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">Arcus</span> at all, but rather a caravan guard named <span class=""bb-i"">Evans</span>. Regardless, he still got looks as people passed him by, he was a fairly intimidating figure to behold. Arcus started down the main smoothed-dirt road with no real idea where he was going. His mind wandered back to the events that had happened yesterday; He had just wandered into the outskirts of the outer Fairbury ruins when a caravan driver drove up next to him. Apparently, the man was so goodhearted that be'd offer Arcus a spot in the caravan so long as he put his hammer to good use, should they need it. Arcus had accepted, not entirely sure what he'd be getting himself into.<br/><br/>And the ensuing hour was some of the most high-intensity combat Arcus had come across in recent months. The truck the caravan had couldn't be driven due to the roots and tangled vines, so it had to be <span class=""bb-i"">pushed</span> into the city limits through the outer ruins, which meant the contingent of armed guards, Arcus among them, had their work cut out for them. Lashvines, Fleshmaws, Mortroot- these were just some of the green and colorful horrors that awaited them. Arcus had begun to believe that the foodstuffs in his satchel would suddenly spring to life and try to kill him. It was in these moments that Arcus was thankful for both Sam and the sawblade end of Brute. <br/><br/>Someone bumping into Arcus brought him out of his memory stupor- a white-coated man. One of several that now surrounded his immediate area, it seemed that Arcus had wandered near the entrance tunnel to the much talked about Atlantis and was now walking against a stream of diligent-looking white coated men and women. <br/><br/>Once again out of his dream-like state Arcus was a bit unsure of what to do with himself. He was entirely out of his element, surrounded by people who work to create life rather than take life. Deep down he wished he shared their passion- he wished to help create life to offset all those that he had taken, but he lacked the skill or knowledge required. To Arcus, it seemed that all he <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> good at was taking life; he had heard somewhere that there were two kinds of people- people who take lives and people who save lives. Well, Arcus wanted to create a third type of person- someone who could save lives <span class=""bb-i"">by</span> taking lives. But who was Arcus to decide what life was worth taking and which was worth saving?<br/><br/>Arcus snapped back into reality once more, having wandered back down the way he came. The people around him didn't glance at him much anymore, they must think him a city guard patrolling the streets. <br/><br/>He found a relatively nice looking spot along the street and slowly sat down, being careful not to agitate his covered and infected wound. Retrieving his small journal and a pen from his satchel, he began to write:<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A warrior is not a man who does not fear death. A warrior is someone who accepts death, for such is their duty.</span> <br/><br/>Arcus thought about the words he had written and reflected upon them- he related, that was for sure. In fact, Arcus sometimes wondered if he had died out on the field that day, only to be brought back by some otherworldly force. Brought back to complete some task- some atonement, perhaps- before the infection took him again. <br/><br/>No, Arcus did not fear death. He embraced it with open arms.</div>"
150,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-23 23:41:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""> <span class=""bb-i"">This is bad,</span> Evelina thought, wincing at the high pitched scream—more like an animalistic screech. <span class=""bb-i"">Really, really bad.</span> <br/><br/>Her mind raced, working to find a way out of this situation. Had she been alone it would have been a piece of cake to get away, but with the metal-wielding woman there it was another matter entirely. She couldn’t leave her alone, after all. Not with this… woman—monster. ""I’m not sure we have any choice but to fight.” She gulped, glancing at the cage warily. She wasn’t sure how long it would hold, but she wasn’t going to gamble on it staying up forever. <br/><br/>Resigning herself to how things were going to be, she brought both her hands up to chest level, palms facing each other. “On three, close your eyes,” she told the immortal beside her. <br/><br/>“One.” A spark of light ignited between her palms, growing from a needle head’s size to a tennis ball within the first second. <br/><br/>“Two.” The orb of light shone brighter, but seemed more compact than before. It stayed the same size but it started getting more intense. Evelina glanced to her side, hoping that the other was ready to close her eyes. She tensed her muscles and looked forward, looking their attacker dead in the eyes.<br/><br/>“THREE!” She clapped her hands together, crushing the ball of light and creating a flash of light bright enough that one could feel the heat from the light itself. <br/><br/>Alex screeched once more as the blinding flash tore across her eyes, as if a fragment of the sun had just exploded in front of her.  Her attacks ceased for a moment as she stumbled back, huddling away from the explosion like a wounded animal. Somewhere in the back of her mind a tiny voice cried out as Alex’s hands met the earth, marred by blackened veins. Her breath came in hot ragged gasps as her heart caught up to the unwarranted use of her power. Slowly, her vision returned to her, blurred and spotty.<br/><br/>Vladimira didn’t bother too much with covering her eyes, simply turning up the attenuation on her welding goggles. She still averted her eyes though, to be safe. <br/><br/>“What’re you going t- Чё за галима?! Совкуоплятьшому му дак!” She winced as the light seared her eyes, not blinding her, but she hadn’t set her goggles to handle the light. “What was that?! How did you- oh, nevermind.” She made the connection and cut herself off in mid sentence. Turning back to Alex, she kept an eye on her while dialing down the attenuation on her goggles. “So we have a blinded, angry, lightning shooting Immortal, who appears to be turning into a Hollow or something.” She shrugged, “Okay, I really don’t know what to do. I could try and bind her, let her drain off all that electricity into the ground, but I don’t want to kill her, and she seems like she wouldn’t stop trying to shoot lightning. The other option is running, which seems like a <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> good idea right now.”<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">If we run she'll just go attack someone else. We need to stop her!</span> Evelina parted her hands again, another orb of light materializing between them. This time, however, she gave no warning, nor did she even repeat the blinding flash. From within the orb shot out several bands of light, each of them attaching themselves to the limbs of the blinded Immortal, tethering her to the ground; one rope around each wrist, another around her ankles, and a final one wrapping itself around her torso and arms. “I don’t know for how long these will hold her,” she said, “so do whatever you can to cage her, or hold her down. Knock her out of you need to!” <br/><br/>Alex’s mind raged with a flurry of activity, as if she were host to the thoughts of two beings, but both of them were herself. She expected another flare of light, and was mildly surprised when the light shot out and wrapped itself around her wrists and ankles, each separate tether connected to the ground somehow. She fought the restraints as yet another wrapped itself around her chest and biceps, pinning the upper portion of her arms to her sides.<br/><br/>She grit her teeth, moving one feet forward with great effort, A small puff of dust swirling around her tethered leg as she did so. The force of the restraints was great, but the change happening within Alex fueled her. She struggled with another step as she pushed against the bind around her torso, snarling as she did so.<br/><br/>Vladimira's eyes widened at the ropes of light, ""How the... what?"" She muttered. Shaking her head, she put it out of her mind for now. <br/><br/>With a motion of her hands, the metal forming her impromptu suit flowed off of her, more metal from the truck's chassis joining it as it streamed towards Alex. The metal coiled into thick cables, wrapping themselves around Alex's wrists and ankles, before plunging the other ends deep into the ground. With a flick of her wrists, the underground ends of the cable opened up, anchoring them firmly.<br/><br/>""That should drain that electricity off if she tries more lightning!"" She shouted over at her impromptu ally, ""I don't know if I could knock her out without killing her, it's not like I carry sedatives on me!""<br/>The metal restraints halted Alex’s movements completely, yet she she struggled against them. Her energy flared, electricity once more swirling around her arms, only to draw towards the metal ties and disperse into the ground. Her heart pounded as she tried harder, the surge of energy increasing twice over, all of which drained into the earth. Tiny filaments of metal were drawn towards the sheer electrical attraction of the energy Alex was putting off, only to have it waste away. Anger boiled beneath her veins as the blackness spread throughout her, now encompassing her entire body. Her heart smashed against her chest as she relentlessly tried to attack the two women in front of her in a blind fury. She ignored the pain spreading through her chest, screaming in desperation at the women, at her restraints, at everything. Her toes dug into the earth as she tried to move. It was futile. Her vision grew hazy, a coldness sweeping through her body until her sight became fully black. For that single moment, Alex felt truly afraid, truly helpless. She fell to the ground as her consciousness receded into the back of her own mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”That’s right Alexia, don’t fight them.”</font></span> A coy male voice whispered to his new pet, currently restrained against two “x” crossed beams in the middle of the camp. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”Ssh,”</font></span> He whispered sweetly, brushing a hand across the naked flesh of his pet’s back,<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”That’s a good girl.”</font></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”It always hurts the first time,”</font></span> He chuckled sarcastically, reaching for the coiled whip at his waist.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Crack!</span></span><br/><br/>The world snapped back into clarity as her body trembled. Hot blood rushed through her veins, coursing through her body like fire. A jet black steam permeated her flesh as the heat in her body rose, alongside the fluctuations of her electrical phenomena. Her body shook, will rage, with power. Her skin became mottled as the blackness spread across her, like a veiling of bubbling smoke it caressed her skin, her clothes, until it covered her completely. Lightning arced through the cloud in abstract patterns, lighting up sections of the midnight veil covering her like dark storm clouds. <br/><br/>The metal coils around her wrists and ankles vibrated with a hum of energy as the opaque mass quivered into a rough human outline, blue sparks jumping wildly around the figure. The coils let off a loud, resonating hum as the energy coursing through them surpassed the metal’s conductivity, bright flashes of electricity manifesting outside the exterior of the coil and plunging haphazardly towards the earth, throwing up small motes of dust. The dust cloud thickened as Alex pulled energy towards herself. The battery from the malformed truck exploded in a shower of sparks as Alex ripped away everything left inside of it. Nearly a mile away a powerline tore from its tomb buried within the earth, a cable as thick as a person, exploded from the dirt, each end emitting a thick arc of electricity that surged towards Alex. The two winding streams of energy snaked towards the heavily obscured form of Alex. The cloud of dust swirling around her body dispelled outwards as the energy smashed into her body. For a moment, time hung frozen as the dust settled. The twisting snakes of energy pouring into her body ceased, but the static was heavy in the air. <br/><br/>A column of energy exploded from Alex, piercing high into the sky as she let out a bestial screech. The rest of the dust hanging in the air swirled around her and outwards, the area gaining rapid clarity. The column of energy dispelled leaving something new in Alex’s place. A hard, chitin like carapace covered her body. Vibrant teal eyes stared at the to women before the creature. It’s maw split into a wide, hungry grin, and its long claws flexed in anticipation. Its <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/J7JALZj.png"" rel=""nofollow"">body</a> quivered as energy flowed through it. The atoms in the air around it so heavily charged that small arcs of lightning burst through the open air around it audibly, crackling with a high pitched sharpness. It uttered a deep, guttural growl as it raked its electrically charged claws through the bindings, slicing through the metal coils and ropes of light with little effort.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""red"">”Freedom…”</font></span> It hissed softly, lowering itself to the ground on all fours, practically shaking with anticipation.<br/><br/>Evelina winced, not because of any sort of pain but more because she had seen how easily that… thing… had sliced through her bindings. <br/><br/>She took a step back, clenching her hands at her side.<br/><br/>One thing was for certain, that right there was no longer the woman they had been faced with before, nor even an Immortal. Nor even human. She prepared herself, breathing deeply to calm her beating heart. She had used her powers, true, but not so much as to make it beat like this. It was this… thing who did it. Loathe as she was to admit it she was scared; scared of death like she hadn’t been before. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">But,</span> she thought to herself, steeling herself for what was to come, <span class=""bb-i"">I have to stop her. No matter what. If she stays like this she’ll just attack Russell Town!</span> She grit her teeth, lips pulling back in a defiant expression. <span class=""bb-i"">I won’t let that happen. Far too many innocents will be killed.</span> The area around her seemed to distort, as if Space itself was warping around her. Even without her conscious effort, the light around her twisted and turned, creating the strange phenomena. She paid it no mind, her eyes narrowed and focused on the Beast facing them. <br/><br/>“Be ready for anything,” she said, her voice just loud enough for the metal wielder to hear. “I can’t promise I’ll be able to protect the both of us from this thing.”  <br/><br/>Vladimira's mouth hung open in shock at the transformation. She opened and closed it a few times, but no words came out. What the hell was this thing in front of her? She’d run across the occasional Hollow, but they were Hollows, no dramatic transformation with Immortal powers thrown in. <br/><br/>What was more concerning was how easily the… thing, had severed solid steel. <span class=""bb-i"">It’s one thing when she’s throwing lightning. I can just hide behind a Faraday Cage in that case. How do you fight something that can cut through solid steel cables like a hot knife through butter?</span> She halfway wondered if it’d be possible to stun Alex again and make a run for it, with the other woman. <span class=""bb-i"">Though she probably has something else up her sleeves…</span> <br/><br/>She pulled the steel cables out of the ground, the metal coiling in front of her in a heap. “I can’t say I’m ready for anything…” she replied warily, watching the creature for any sudden movements. “But I think it’s safe to say this got a whole lot harder.”<br/><br/>A dry laugh passed through the creature’s maw, it’s inky tongue flicking across its teeth briefly. Its claws dug into the earth as it studiously watched the two women and their exchange. It understood what they were saying, but more than that, it could smell their terror. The scent made its bloodboil, made its muscles quiver until finally, the creature could take it no longer. Its maw split wide as it howled at its prey. A cloud of dust erupted into the air as it launched forward towards the metal manipulating Immortal. It crossed the short distance in but a breath, in an instant it was nearly upon her. It coiled back on its haunches, keeping its momentum as it sprang forward, its right hand curled into a tight fist as it cocked its arm back.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Fast!</span> She didn’t have time to think much more than that before the thing was already upon her companion. She barely had time to register the thought that she had to protect the other, or she’d likely die from just that one attack. <br/><br/>Quick as her mind allowed her, she threw out her thoughts with a single command: <span class=""bb-i"">Protect.</span> The light in front of Vladimira solidified, forming into an invisible shield between her and the hollowfied Immortal. She wasn’t sure if it would hold. She could only hope. <br/><br/>“Дерьмо!” Vladimira swore as the thing leapt at her, slashing with murderous fury. She tried to push herself away, use the steel cables to accelerate a jump perhaps, but she stumbled over her own foot at the last second and went sprawling. <br/><br/>She scrambled to her feet and stared amazed as the creature that used to be Alex slashed at some invisible barrier. She looked at it incredulously, and then in fear as she saw a spiderweb of cracks run along what looked almost like air. <br/><br/>She began slowly backpedaling again, shooting a panicked look over at the other woman -not that she’d notice through the gas mask- “I’m seriously thinking a tactical advance in the opposite direction sounds really good righ-” She was cut off as the monster burst through the barrier in a shower of all but invisible glasslike shards, lunging for her with the claw outstretched. <br/><br/>“Дерьмо!” She screeched again, almost dodging the creature’s claw as it slashed through her mask and goggles- and face. Blood streamed into her eyes, nose, mouth. It was everywhere, hot and thick and suffocating. She clutched her face in a gloved hand, trying to wipe it clean. <br/><br/>She succeeded in doing so temporarily, only to see the fist of the monster impacting her in the gut with a horrific screech of steel on whatever this thing’s carapace was made of. She went flying backwards into a rock, howling as her metal plated back smashed into the stone. <br/><br/>Slumping forward, her vision clouded. She saw whatever Alex had become doing… something, at least it didn’t seem to be attacking her anymore. She blinked as blood began to seep into her eyes again, gritting her teeth she choked out through a mouthful of blood, “Wa-watch o-out!” She gagged as the blood ran down her throat, coughing it out over her clothing. She watched through eyes that seemed covered in wax paper until the blood ran into her eyes again and she slumped over unconscious.  <br/><br/>The barrier had worked. It had definitely worked, of that Evelina was sure. But even if it had worked it didn’t change the fact that it required little more than a few punches for that monster to break through something that even high caliber rifles barely managed to dent. <br/><br/>She watched in almost horrified stillness as her ally was thrown back and impacted with a large rock. Hard. It was more reflex than anything when she acted, drawing as much light she could as possible into a single focal point in the palm of her hand; the midday sun lending itself to her. <br/><br/>She flung her hand forward, a solid beam of searing light screaming forward, and… doing very little. Her lips parted and eyes widened in surprise. Her beam had done little but scratch the armour of that thing. <span class=""bb-i"">That was enough to cause third degree burns…!</span> Her legs moved on their own, taking a step back in obvious fear. <span class=""bb-i"">How am I going to stop that thing?</span><br/><br/>The creature gave another dry laugh, a twisted smile set upon his face. It had been crouched, the scent of blood filling its nostrils, ready to end this woman’s life. Now, it stood slowly, letting its muscles stretch as it reached its full seven foot height. It’s attention turned away from the woman bleeding profusely, towards the other one now. This one was not masked like the other, this other woman wore only goggles and a look of terror. The creature’s smile widened, pulling the corners of its maw into a toothy grin.<br/><br/>It’s claws flexed as the static charged air began pulling towards its hand. The frequency of energetic bursts through the air increased around him as the molecules became more charged. A small swirl of dust started around its feet as the gathering energy formed into a swirling sphere in its hand. <font color=""red"">”Two can play this game,”</font> It laughed, its voice like a throaty growl.<br/><br/>Tendrils of electric energy fired from the ground, attracted towards the pull of the sphere in its hand. It’s fist clenched around the energy as its stretched its arm back as far as it would go, the other hovered in front and across from its chest, palm out. The entire process took it only a handful of seconds, and in another, its body trembled with the force of the throw. The projectile screamed through the air, closing in rapidly towards the light wielder. <br/><br/>Despite her own fear, Evelina steeled herself, preparing herself for whatever might come. She highly doubted that she’d be able to do much to this thing, but damned if she didn’t intend to try. Even if it claimed her life she would still consider it a success if she took it down with her. She dug her toes into the ground and bent her knees, jaw clenched in an attempt to keep herself in check. <br/><br/>She was fully prepared for another lightning fast attack, so it was with some surprise that she noted the monster—or whatever it was—raise its hand and start to charge up a blast of what she assumed would be electricity. She waited patiently, taking the time granted her to prepare herself. She knew an attack was coming, and she was prepared for it. <br/><br/>And then it came.<br/><br/>A static filled the air, and she knew to act. Instantly she dispersed into light, the same second that the lightning struck. But even then, she wasn’t fast enough. A fraction of a fraction of a second faster and she could have avoided it entirely, but she was just a tiny bit too slow and felt a shock of electricity course through her as she dispersed. It was far from life threatening, or even enough to paralyze her, but it was felt. <br/><br/>Invisible in the daylight, and faster than any human could run, she rushed forward, behind the creature. When she materialized again—at least ten metres away—she was already building up another orb of light, staring defiantly at the monster. She waited for a few short moments, then shouted. “You’re not going to catch me that easily!”<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Translations and pronunciations"" type=""button"">Translations and pronunciations [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Чё за галима?! - What the fuck?! - chyo za ga-lima?!<br/><br/>Ад - Hell - Ad<br/><br/>Дерьмо! - Shit! - Derr-mo!<br/><br/>Совкуоплятьшому му дак! - Fucking asshole! - Sovkuoplyatshomu mudak!)</div></div><br/></div>"
151,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-03-26 06:35:00,TheMadAsshatter,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">The crawl of the sun's rays took roughly an hour to reach James' eyes.  He stirred on a ratty old couch as light filtered through the shemagh he had draped over his face.  His eyes groggily opened under the cloth, which he promptly removed with one hand and replaced with the other.  The building he had decided to take shelter in, while half destroyed, was also the only one within sight to have a couch, or really anything comfortable to sleep on, and although James wanted to make it to Russel City before nightfall tonight, he definitely didn't feel like moving for a while.<br/><br/>After some time, he eventually gave in to reason and removed his hand from his face, revealing to him a relatively clear sky, which is to say as clear as it can possibly get in Dust, which isn't saying much.  No matter how far The Gaens come in rebuilding the biosphere and restoring some of the lost graces of the old world, it'll probably take a long time before the skies were truly clear again.  James let out a grunt as he swung his legs over the side of the couch, his backpack and trusty AK sitting next to him, leaning against the arm of the couch.  He picked up the Russian workhorse, examining it for what must have been the thousandth time, at least.  To him, it was simply a beautiful machine.  It always worked, all the time, at least since he beefed it up.  It was something he took pride in, but even better was taking it apart and putting it back together.<br/><br/>Of course, that had lost it's fun about the tenth time he did it, simply because there was nothing more to learn about the rifle.  At this point, James knew practically every rivet, pin, and trunnion of the rifle.  Still, it was always satisfying to him the simplicity of the rifle, from the way it strips down to it's very design characteristics.  While it certainly wasn't any high-powered sniper rifle with state of the art optics and modifications, it was an extremely rugged design with very forgiving build tolerances, and even more importantly, it went bang every time.  That's not to say anything about the accuracy which, admittedly, isn't great, but for a rifle of it's type, it didn't need to reach too far.  This was the true everyman's rifle; at least, that's how James saw it.<br/><br/>He continued to muse over the characteristics of the rifle whilst nearly absentmindedly field stripping it again, only to put it back together the moment he was done.  The sound it made when he pushed the bolt carrier into battery was music to his ears, and just as he latched the dust cover back into place, he gave it a rack, generating a meaty <span class=""bb-i"">krrrrack-chack</span> as he did so.  He gave the rifle another look before setting it on the couch next to him.  He opened his rucksack and began digging through it, searching for a bottle of water he'd had.  It was half-empty at this point, but he figured he could use a swig or two before packing up and getting back on the road.  He opened the bottle and brought it to his lips, draining it to roughly 1/4 capacity before placing it back in the bag.<br/><br/>Somewhere, quite far away, he heard a cacophony of gunshots.  Wherever they were, they were far enough away that they wouldn't be a problem for James.  He pulled his compass out from his pack and got his bearings, making a mental note of which direction he would be heading before putting his compass away and throwing his bags onto his shoulders.  He then picked up his AK by the sling and threw it over his left shoulder.  Russel City shouldn't have been more than five hours away at this point.  James figured if he didn't make any stops, he could be there by midday, easily.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">- - - - -</div><br/><br/>Somewhere along the way James began to contemplate his powers as an immortal.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Heh, 'immortal',""</font> he said aloud, chuckling at the word.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""What part of me makes me 'immortal'?  My powers are freaking lame compared to some of the others I've heard of.  Jeez, I seriously got the short end of the stick.  I mean yeah, I can dodge a pissed off bandit's punches all day, but I can't pick up a freaking car with my mind and throw it at someone.""</font>  He groaned at the thought.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Whatever, what can you do?""</font>  His musings continued as he walked through the sands, which, while annoying to think about, helped him to pass the time.<br/><br/>His thoughts eventually drifted to the fact that travelling around Dust was a toss-up between getting cooked alive in your own clothes, or risking a wicked case of sunburn.  At the thought of that, he took a quick pause to get his jacket off and stow it in his rucksack.  It helped with the heat a little bit, but there was still a dark, long-sleeved shirt underneath, which he didn't take off for exactly the aforementioned reason.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Hooray for fresh-baked human,""</font> he said, adjusting his goggles.  He didn't really care who saw him as an immortal, thus his goggles were simply a dark tint to help block out sunlight.  He figures, ""the hell with stupid people who can't get it through their heads that we didn't ask for this.  If they don't like it, they can take a hike through Forsaken territory.""<br/><br/>For the most part, James had been lucky in that regard so far.  His scavenging team back when he lived in Russel City before welcomed his powers of observation; it resulted in more valuable finds.  He was equally lucky in Aspin, The Gaens being as open minded and welcoming as they were.  Most of his fellow students at the university he went to were also pretty accepting, but of course there were those who didn't feel the same.  They never tried anything, but he would get looks, verbal abuse, and at one point, a threat in the form of a poorly written letter.  He never let it get to him though, but he also hasn't nearly seen the worst of the possible forms of discrimination against his kind either, so there was that too.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">""My kind,""</font> he repeated out loud.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""That sounds just like something they would say.""</font>  He'd heard rumors of The Wings' treatment of immortals.  Of course, not all of them were the same, but most of them seemed to be rather poorly predisposed towards immortals.  It was a mystery to him, how people could so blindly ignore critical details; blame the effect, not the cause.  James himself was hardly even a threat, his powers were almost purely defensive in nature.  Still, he had no doubt some would direct their attacks on him simply because he was a symptom of a disease.<br/><br/>Now wasn't that a thought.  He himself being a symptom of a disease.  In some ways, it wasn't even untrue.  In the grand scheme of things, The Sickness being what it was in the eyes of the people, he was exactly that; a symptom.  The Sickness seemed to act in strange ways, killing most, empowering the rest.  Still, James supposed it was better to be hated by some than, well, dead, and then a bloodthirsty monster.  He dwelled on the thought briefly before sidelining it, along with his other vaguely philosophical conceptions.<br/><br/>After roughly three hours of walking, James could finally see the outskirts of Russel City.  He picked up the pace slightly, ready to be out of this heat, and maybe settling into an inn or something.  He saw a truck out of the corner of his eye.  He found it odd that it wouldn't be on the road, or at least the vestigial semblance of a road, but stranger things have happened.  Like the fact that he saw it crash into... thin air?<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">""The hell?""</font>  He turned towards the commotion and noticed a figure standing in front of the truck, holding it's... her, arms out.  The distance was only just close enough for James' eyesight to pick up on details most would only see from 50 meters or less, which allowed him to identify gender from this distance, but not much else.  Another figure emerged from the truck, hitting the ground as... she fell out.  A third approached on... some sort of... hovercraft?<br/><br/>It didn't take long for him to put two and two together; those two were immortals.  Possibly they were about to rob this person.  <span class=""bb-i"">Dammit,</span> Jason thought.  He knew if that were the case, there was no way he would get there in time to intervene.  Still, he could possibly help the person in the truck after the fact.  He decided to take a little detour, heading towards the truck.<br/><br/>After a couple of moments, James learned that not everything was as it seemed.  The girl in the truck, as it turned out, was also an immortal, as he learned when she began to unleash electrical arcs all around her.  He was about to make another sarcastic remark about his ""shitty"" powers when he noticed that this girl was out of control.  Something was very obviously wrong with her, the electricity sparking from her body arcing in haphazard patterns, seemingly without direction or intent.  The two who were there with her put up defenses against the barrage of lightning before restraining her and grounding her, thereby alleviating the problem somewhat.  Still, this girl was a live wire.  Even from this distance, James could see her rage, but also something else.  Fear?  Sadness?  The unbridled contempt was masking something, and her uncontrollable release of energy was the result of her cognitive dissonance.<br/><br/>Soon enough the situation went from potentially bad to definitely worse.  Shortly after the two others restrained the girl from the truck he saw her... transform.  Into some sort of creature.  He stopped in his tracks as his mind registered exactly what just happened. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Did she...?  No fucking way,""</font> he muttered in disbelief.  He took the AK off of his shoulder and accelerated his pace into nearly a sprint.  <span class=""bb-i"">That's a goddamn hollow.  But, how?  How did she transform that quickly?</span> he thought.<br/><br/>He was still well over a kilometer off when the transformation finished and the black creature began it's rampage against the two who were there.  Blows were traded, on both sides, but of course the hollow brushed them off like they hardly ever happened.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Shit, shit, shit.""</font>  This was far from normal, even for immortals.  There was no way, in his mind, this should have happened.  No one turns into a hollow that damn quickly.  Immortals aren't supposed to become hollows at all... right?<br/><br/>The one who had come from Russel City got hit hard by the beast, and James was still several minutes away.  He swore under his breath, knowing that the two immortals were likely outmatched.  Wait, scratch that, one immortal.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Shit, it knocked her unconscious.""</font>  A normal hollow shouldn't have been an issue for those two, but this didn't seem like any ordinary hollow.  Whatever it was, the implications of such an event could only be worse, and all James could do was watch, still far too distant to do anything about it, not like he could do much if he were there anyways.  If that thing was as tough as it seemed, bullets wouldn't do nearly enough damage to bring it down.  Still, he had to do something.  He picked up the pace, putting a magazine into the assault rifle and giving the bolt a quick yank.  If nothing else, he could probably hold his own against this thing and distract it long enough for someone with a big enough gun to arrive.</div>"

If it weren't for the absence of a sky, he could have believed for a moment his eyes had returned to the way they'd been long ago. With a grin underneath the plain hood over his face, Ivan smiled as a short fit of coughing overtook him, temporarily ruining the stillness of the figure sitting at the edge of The Big Empty.<br/><br/>Soon as he recovered, Ivan straightened his back again and looked out into the vast desert before him, trying to remember for a moment what a sunset looked like. The day was close to ending, as it had been long enough now that Ivan could feel the temperature beginning to drop and he knew it had been daylight out when he fled Isolone. For a moment, he could feel the creeping loneliness that always made itself known after leaving a settlement, like a looming shadow that worked into the back of his mind.<br/><br/>Wishing to keep such thoughts away for now, Ivan reached behind him and removed his backpack from his shoulders, dirt falling from the space on his back that now felt naked and exposed. The discomfort distracted Ivan from what loneliness he felt, and from one of the side pouches he pulled a small bundle of cloth which was gently placed on the ground before him, only a foot from the sheer drop off of the mesa. Quickly he put his pack back on, shrugging uncomfortably as he tried returning it to exactly how he'd worn it a moment ago. <br/><br/>With his bag back on and his cape covering it once more, the man brought his attention to the little bundle of cloth he had placed before him. Carefully, he unwrapped the bundle to reveal a plain glass pipe and rusted lighter, both objects covered in grime, ash, and dirt. Faintly, Ivan could see where the small pile of substance he'd acquired in the town rested on the cloth which was now like a place-mat for some fine meal. It was an odd substance; apparently some kind of fungus that had recently been discovered by those living in Isolone. Where it grew must have been somewhat unpleasant, as the mycelium was visible to Ivan meaning it was dirty. The texture reminded him of sponge as he began pulling apart the odd toadstool and placing it in his pipe, and as he finished preparing to light up the idea that he had been sold a lie crossed his mind. <br/><br/>""Guess I'll find out,"" he murmured, his voice hardly a whisper as he raised the pipe to the slit in his hood meant for his mouth. With the flick of his thumb the heat of the lighter told him it had caught, and he quickly brought the flame to his pipe to avoid wasting fuel. The smoke entered his lungs as he inhaled deeply, the substance burning up at an alarming rate which result in him burning his thumb on the rising flame. He wanted to curse, but held it in so the smoke could stay in his lungs for longer.<br/><br/>After about thirty seconds Ivan let go, smoke pouring out of his hood first from just the mouth slit but eventually from his eye holes too. Happily he grinned, unable to see the vapors but feeling their warmth against his face and their scent in his nose. He would have taken another hit but all that was left in the pipe was burnt grime, so somewhat disappointed he did his best to smoke what was left before putting away his things and returning to the still pose he had been in before. <br/><br/>He could feel it was close to dark now, the temperature having dropped dramatically, and while he waited for whatever he'd just smoked to take effect Ivan opened one of the pockets at the side of his vest for his flute. The metal felt cool in his hands as he pulled out the two pieces and screwed them together, the instrument barely fitting one of the pouches even while in half. He was glad he could make it work though, as the instrument being easy to access brought him comfort that he had become so used to and was now sure he couldn't live without.<br/><br/>His mind beginning to drift he licked his lips before placing them upon the instrument, still without taking his hood off as the mouth slit was just large enough to let him play through it. To start he just blew, a shrill note echoing out into the emptiness around him which Ivan silently blessed before continuing. His song of choice tonight was one he remembered his people used to play, often after a long week of work when men and woman returned home from Ironhold. Though he didn't sing, the lyrics passed in his mind like a choir of distant echos; voices that had once belonged to people he knew.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""The sand, she burns.

It's a tale as old as time itself, from a place few men dare to go. The young kings, the rulers, of times long gone by. They held the key life- but their greed would swallow the good, and soon their people would die,"" Ivan sung, his head swimming in the lyrics of yet another story that he'd come to know by heart. His skull boiled and flesh stung underneath his wrappings, the lone man marching across a flat sheet of shattered earth. <br/><br/>The clay ground beneath his feet crumbled lightly with each step, sunlight roasting the almost white earth to try and blind anyone looking out on it too long. All Ivan could see was the ground though; unaware of the light overhead as his only indication that it was day was the sizzling he could feel on his head. Still he marched though, his song diluting reality as thought retracted from the pain of the real world. Dust began to pick up around his feet, trailing behind him and clinging to his clothing like Ivan possessed a static cling.<br/><br/>It had been at least two days since leaving Forbes, and Ivan wasn't sure how far he'd gone any longer, his only solid knowledge being that he was heading Northeast. Depending on his luck he'd reach Laguna or Russel City in about a day's time, with the worst case scenario being he hit Mount Nike and had to trek around it to get to Dresden. Whatever happened though, in at least about a day there'd be enough loose material for Ivan to utilize and move faster through the desert as he had learned the terrain maps quite well since they affected how he moved from place to place. Desert flats were preferably avoided though he'd made an exception this time, as it had been more than a year since he'd visited the North of Dust and wanted to head that way again. So he kept marching, stopping only once to drink from one of the many plastic water bottles he kept in his bag. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""navajowhite"">Now</font></div></div><br/><br/>The terrain had changed some time last night, and with renewed energy Ivan was rolling through the desert on a mound of dirt and pebbles. The hot material worked it's way into every space between his clothing, a cloud of dust kicking up behind him as Ivan willed the little hill to move faster. The terrain change had told him he'd missed Laguna, though he could care less as it was more out of the way than any of his other rest stops. Most of his food was gone at this point, and water was running low but Ivan reassured himself he'd reach a city soon. He had about enough currency to buy himself a drink or two at a bar depending on how much they charged, and that thought alone pushed him to keep going.<br/><br/>Then the usual silence of the desert broke, and like jumping off a skateboard Ivan quickly brought his legs up to speed while the dust around his legs dispersed. It was an engine, and not too far off at that, which prompted Ivan to quickly find higher ground and figure out where they were in order to avoid them. Bandits roved the wastelands, and wouldn't think twice about trying to rob him, so with defense in mind Ivan loaded his rocket launcher but kept it on his back. Quickly he climbed the nearest ridge and looked around, low to the ground in hopes of avoiding being seen by anyone. The colour of his clothing often helped Ivan blend with the environment, plus it helped that the dirt in the area clung to him like lint on a sock.<br/><br/>Hooded eyes scanning the expanse of desert, Ivan quickly identified the source of the noise and watched as the dirty outline of a vehicle roared across the earth. Whoever was inside had a great sense of urgency, and it's sudden crash frightened him to no end. There had been nothing to stop the vehicle that Ivan could see, but after trying to make out more detail he believed he could see what must have been a bike. <span class=""bb-i"">This is none of my business,</span> he thought as the aftermath of the crash made things easier to see. Whatever had happened was their own problem, and Ivan was preparing to slide back down the ridge and alter his course to head towards where the truck had come from. Chances were it got out of the city, meaning perhaps Ivan was closer than he'd hoped for, but before he left the sound of shouting drew him back to the scene.<br/><br/>Something was happening, and it didn't seem to be very pleasant, though Ivan could only guess what was going on since whoever was there wasn't dirty enough to be seen from a distance. He couldn't hear their words either, recognizing only distressed shouts, and somewhat fearfully the man slunk down the hill a little more to avoid being seen. There was a conflict of some sort, the truck was ripped apart and it's pieces hung in the air, and it was then he realized that whatever was happening must be immortal related. It had been too long since he'd met another like him, and <span class=""bb-i"">perhaps,</span> he pondered, <span class=""bb-i"">it's with good reason</span>. So all he could do, much to his dismay, was watch and hope things settled down enough that he could get closer to inspect. If it turned out they were all dead when he got down there so be it, but it was better than risking being noticed by trying to see better.</div>"

This new prey, was much faster than the other. Perhaps it would actually enjoy this hunt. It’s body tensed as the woman spoke, all of its senses focusing on her. It readied itself, but refrained from turning towards her just yet. Energy arced in thick lines across its body, gathering once more, into both of its hands this time. The swirling spheres of energy gathered quickly, gathering energy from the heavily charged air.<br/><br/>As the creature gathered energy for the second time, a strange thing began to happen. Above the combatants a thin, lightish brown haze was gathering. The creature paid this no mind, as it was aware of what was happening. Instead, with its back still to her, it taunted its female prey.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">“Some of us enjoy playing with our food,”</font> It growled, rather amused. Suddenly  It spun around, twisting on one foot. One of the spheres of energy screamed through the air as the creature turned, aiming the ball just in front of the woman. Simultaneously it took the second sphere, its hand arcing high over its head as it smashed the ball into the ground. The packed energy dispersed into the ground violently, becoming volatile in nature. The impacted ground erupted, as if hit by a large explosion; leaving a thick screen of dust in its wake. <br/><br/>The creature hunched over, once more down on all four of its limbs. It was effectively blinded by the dust screen, but it was a hunter. It ignored its eyes and let its other sense take over as it stalked forward quietly. It could still smell her, she was determined–she was afraid.   <br/><br/>Lying forgotten, slumped against a rock, Vladimira stirred, blinking through a red haze as she struggled to open her eyes. They seemed to be crusted shut with someth- &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Ah, finally waking up, good. I was getting bored without company.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>She started at the voice, trying to jump up and look- around only to fail and fall back, aching all over. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Don’t know why you’re doing that, just going to break bones. Painful, in case you weren’t aware.</span> &lt;<br/><br/>She still tried looking around, vision obscured by blood encrusted eyes, “Th-the Ад are you?” She managed to croak, fumbling for her canteen to rinse her throat. <br/><br/>The voice returned, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">I believe the term is Spark. Unless they’ve changed it recently… have they? Really, you guys need to have a better naming scheme. How about, ‘Source of power that lets the individuals known as Immortals conduct fantastic feats of forcing matter itself to do their bidding’? No? True, it is a bit long, but still, something nicer sounding than just plain old ‘Spark’ would be appreciated. How about Crucib-</span>&lt;<br/><br/>Vladimira interrupted the… voice, by thumping her head against the rock. “Now that you’ve stopped talking for a second, I don’t know what a Spark is, sorry. Could we possibly have this conversation when I’m not in mortal peril from a girl who’s turned into a Hollow or… whatever it is?”<br/><br/>Indignantly, the voice replied &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Not at all what it is you uncivilized barbarian. Well, I take that back, you’re either a rather civilized barbarian, or an uncivilized… civilized… person… thing. Look, it’s been awhile since you looked at a thesaurus -I’m being generous there for the record, you never have, you loveable ignorant savage you- so cut me some slack on the synonyms. Also, to fuel your gun fetish, check the back of that truck, think I saw something you’ll like.</span>&lt; To say she was confused would be a gross understatement, her confusion decreased slightly as the Spark returned to matters in the present day, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">And for the record Ms. Entitlement, I’m just as mortally imperiled as you are, so I’d appreciate it if you could be so kind as to not get me -and yourself- killed. I’m Pandora for the record, Pandora the Curious if you really want to know. The big spiky guy attacking your new friend is Aeshma ‘the Hunter’, oooh, scary, I’m quaking in my metaphorical boots. He gets angry easily, in case you hadn’t noticed. And you’re Vladimira, I’ve lived here long enough to know that, so no wasting time with introductions, only I’m allowed to do that.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>She blinked, opening her mouth to speak only to hear the same voice, this time exasperated. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">My god woman, must you use your mouth to speak to me? It’s almost like you’re talking to a voice in your head or something. Just think it at me, I’ll ‘hear’.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>Vladimira blinked rapidly again, she knew she’d hit her head when she went airborne, but had she really hit it this hard? <br/><br/>&lt;<span class=""bb-i"">Alright, ‘Pandora’, what do you expect me to do against ‘Aeshma’? Throw more steel at him for him to cut through?</span>&gt; She “thought at” Pandora, &lt;<span class=""bb-i"">I mean, I could probably bludgeon him a bit, but he seems to have gotten more than a bit of an upgrade, and I seem to be stuck with the baseline model.</span>&gt;<br/><br/>Pandora’s response was unexpectedly brief, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Have you looked at your hands?</span>&lt;<br/><br/>She groaned, lifting a hand in front of her eyes, which had somehow cleared during the conversation, her eyes widening at the appearance it now sported. She lifted the other arm, which mirrored the black chitinous material she saw on ‘Aeshma’, gunmetal highlights ran along any edges, of which there were many. On the whole her arms looked like they’d been encased in thick armor plating, not unlike a plate gauntlet, though they didn’t seem that much bigger than her regular arms. &lt;<span class=""bb-i"">So, care to explain? Last I checked I didn’t have these ten minutes ago.</span>&gt; <br/><br/>Pandora responded rather hurriedly, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">I’ll give you a full explanation later, boring info dumps, charts, the whole shebang- but right now, don’t you feel like hitting something? Like, really hard? I feel like hitting something, don’t you? Oh wait, that is you. Okay. Alright. Go hit something girl!</span>&lt;<br/><br/>She was going crazy. No doubt about it. <br/><br/>But… she couldn’t deny she really wanted to hit something right now. <br/><br/>She jumped to her feet, taking a moment to mutter a “Whoa.” at her sudden energy. Looking around, she absorbed what she could from the environment. Ozone. Giant dust cloud. Giant figure hunched on all fours in said dust cloud. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Punch him! Yeah! That one! Slam the ground first though, for dramatic effect, just don’t go overboard.</span> <br/><br/>She smirked at her head-voice’s commentary, &lt;<span class=""bb-i"">You do realize I’m not convinced you actually exist beyond being a figment of my imagination, right?</span>&gt; Pausing for a moment, she raised her arms above her head, &lt;<span class=""bb-i"">But I’m inclined to agree with you on that point.</span>&gt;<br/><br/>She brought her fists down to the ground with a primal yell, mixing in some of the worst curses she could think of at the moment, hurled in Aeshma’s general direction. The ground shook as though someone had just dropped a loaded shipping crate on the spot, small cracks running out from the impact points of her fists. “Hey you!” She shouted at Aeshma in case she’d failed to get his attention yet, “Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!” She shouted the words without even knowing where they came from, blinking in surprise the moment after. “Did I just say that?”<br/><br/>Pandora chimed in, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">You’re welcome. Figured your insult repertoire could do with some expansion beyond yelling obscenities. I’m serious about the thesaurus you know, you should find one. I think you got his attention, by the way.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>Evelina had her teeth grit, trying to calm her beating heart. Even as she continued to gather more and more light into that small orb of hers she could feel the beating of her heart to steadily become more from the strain of using her powers than the fear she felt, now mixed with a stubborn determination. <br/><br/>It was all a matter of time before whatever Alex had become turned around, allowing her to sear its retinas for good. But when Alex turned around, a pair of orbs of electricity pulsating in each of her palms, her hopes of that were broken. One of said orbs were thrown even before she could react to her turning around, and the other smashed into the ground almost immediately after. She simply didn’t have enough time to blind her before it was thrown at her, but she did have time for something else.<br/><br/>The light between her palms flew out, creating a small shield right in the path of the attack. <span class=""bb-i"">Smaller size means more energy to put into the strength,</span> is what she told herself. The ball hit, sending sparks everything, and it would have stopped it entirely if not for the fact that she had miscalculated its trajectory. <br/><br/>Stone and lightning flew everywhere from where it impacted the ground a few metres beside her, her shield having hit its edge and sent it careening off to the side rather than directly against her. Evelina herself was also thrown back, small shocks wracking her body from where stray bolts of electricity struck her body. <br/><br/>She was coughing and, brushing the hair out of her face, struggled to stand up again, the bolts of electricity having caused some few cramps. It hurt to stand, but she had to regardless. She couldn’t let that thing go, not without putting a permanent stopper to it. She let out a breath, her fear abating replaced instead by a small ember of anger. It was yet small, but it was enough. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:So you can finally hear me.</span> <br/><br/>Aeshma’s claws dug into the earth as the ground shook. It wasn’t a very powerful shockwave, but familiarity tingled across his spine. <span class=""bb-i"">Today is rather amusing…</span> he thought as he turned, his perpetual grin still splitting his maw into a twisted smile. His cold blue eyes stared through the rising haze of dust. It seemed the woman from earlier had come back to play some more, and she brought a friend.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">“Pandora the Curious…”</font> Aeshma mused, noticing the woman’s hands, <font color=""red"">“I had a feeling that was you, Feeling timid are we?”</font> What an appropriate time for Pandora to manifest, although, it was only partially. Aeshma was delighted at the new and slightly improved prey. But his delight lasted only a second as anger flared up from within him, <span class=""bb-i"">Does she not think me worthy of her full form?</span> A sneer replaced his grin, and an angry growl escaped from his throat. He ran at her, like an animal on all fours, seething on the inside.<br/><br/>Vladimira lifted a hand, feeling the truck and the assortment of junk in the back of it, <span class=""bb-i"">Oh, definitely something interesting there.</span> She floated the junk in the rear off, or at least the bits with steel. She secured a ‘grip’ on the truck, grinning maliciously as she bellowed at Aeshma, “I HAVE THE POWER OF MOTHER RUSSIA, BITCH!” she jerked her hand, sending the truck hurtling at Aeshma at a blistering speed.<br/><br/> Aeshma howled in blind frustration as the wreckage smashed into his side. The twisted metal whined as it piled ontop of him, igniting the fuel line. It took only seconds for the entire hunk of metal to burst into a raging inferno, fueled by leaking gasoline cans in the back of the truck. The flaming wreckage shifted as Aeshma worked his claws through it, slicing through the structurally compromised  metals. He shook with rage as he walked from the blazing inferno, his body live with electricity.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Now, we dance,”</font> He growled, kicking up a cloud of dust as he sprinted towards her.<br/><br/>“Don’t like dancing,” Vladimira grumbled. She pulled a piece of metal towards her, pushing off of it as Aeshma neared her, gripping the same metal and swinging a 180 on it to propel herself at his back with her arm cocked to deliver a punch. <br/><br/>Aeshma dug his heels into the ground, violently stopping is momentum. Simultaneously he turned counter to his prey’s spin, his left leg arcing through the air as he pivoted on his opposite foot. They hit each other at the same time, the force of her punch connecting with his chest sent him reeling backwards. Vladimira had the breath knocked out of her as the kick connected with her armored chest, she braced as she went flying backwards, managing to slow her fall with another piece of scrap lying about, <span class=""bb-i"">Aeshma scattered this stuff all over the place. Idiot.</span><br/><br/>Aeshma slid to a stop, his momentum leaving a narrow gouge in the ground. He laughed, suddenly jerking his hand out, electricity running down his arm to fire towards Vladimira in a thick bolt. Vladimira lept out of the way, throwing one of the larger chunks of the wreckage of the truck at Aeshma. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Oooh, I love how he telegraphs the attack like that. Think we could get him a neon sign that lights up and says, “I’m going to shoot lightning at you!”?</span>&lt; The hunk of metal screeched as Aeshma’s claws flashed through it with inhuman speed, giving the metal the appearance of breaking apart into smaller chunks as it collided with him.<br/><br/>Vladimira circled warily, keeping an eye on Aeshma as she pulled the various scraps of steel from the truck’s chassis, forming them into wickedly sharp rotating blades of steel that orbited her head. With a flick of her hand, they shot towards Aeshma like a swarm of oversized shuriken. She grabbed another scrap of metal and propelled herself to Aeshma’s side, launching the water bottle sized bar as fast as she could, following up with another arm cocked back to deliver a brutal punch to Aeshma’s face.<br/><br/>Aeshma’s claws flashed through the air as he sliced through the metal discs, shredding them into fragments. He caught the metal bar from his peripheral vision and altered its course with the back of his hand, narrowly avoiding it. The woman followed up with another punch, but Aeshma was not inclined to receive another one of those; he stepped to the side, grabbing her by the back of her clothes and using her momentum to throw her off balance and into the ground. <br/><br/>Vladimira swore as she went flying into the sand again. “Y’know. I’m really starting to dislike you.” She grumbled at Aeshma, dusting herself off before hurling herself at him again. “<span class=""bb-b"">Just. Die. Already!</span>” She shouted as she aimed a punch directly at Aeshma’s face. Aeshma stepped aside slightly, just enough to knock her punch out of the way; following up his deflection with a quick strike from his knee. Vladimira grunted as his knee connected with her gut, sending her flying again, but up this time. She grinned, grabbing one of the ridges on his head with her left hand to stop herself and smashing him in the face with her right. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Grabbing the bull by his horns! We need to get you a red cape. Maybe just a Darwin award though.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>Aeshma stumbled backwards, actually falling to the ground and catching himself in a crouched position. Soreness radiated from the side of his face, he had <span class=""bb-i"">definately</span> felt that. He was sloppy, overcome by her sheer need for survival. But he knew he was faster, stronger. She was only partially awakened, there’s no way she could match him. <font color=""red"">”I grow tired of playing with you, whelp,”</font> He seethed, irritation heavy in his voice. <br/><br/>Aeshma’s body suddenly lit up with streams of electricity, flowing along his body in sporadic bursts. The air too, became even more heavily charged as electricity streaked through it, jumping from molecule to molecule. Skywards, the dusty haze slowly gathered into a grayish mass, spread across the sky. <font color=""red"">”No mores games,”</font> He said, a blast of forked lightning flashing from his hand, branching out in a wide, but focused manner–Focused on Vladimira.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Well. Fuck.</span> She pushed against Aeshma, trying to avoid the bolt of lightning. The bolt of electricity hit her dead center, charring her clothes and igniting them, and heating her armor to red hot. She fell to the ground spasming as her clothes burned. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit. Shitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshit.</span> The bolt had been brief and she scrambled to her feet, putting as much distance between herself an Aeshma as she could. <br/><br/>She scrambled with the straps, dropping the red hot plate as the clothes that had been beneath and around it burned. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit. Shitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshitshit.</span><br/><br/>Tearing off her cloak, shirt, and ammunition pouches, she dropped her weapons and kicked sand over them to extinguish the flames. The lightning hadn’t charred her own flesh like she’d have thought it would’ve. <span class=""bb-i"">Wonder why that is…</span> She glanced down, noting her lack of clothing with alarm, then anger, “I really, really hate you right now.” She growled. All the scrap steel from her clothes and the truck flew to her, surrounding her in a swirling mass of wickedly sharp metal. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Oooh, flying blender that blends outwards! Very nice! Maybe you can just seduce him into not killing you though.</span>&lt; <br/><br/>Aeshma laughed, feeling the power surge through his body. <font color=""red"">”You mortals… always concerned with appearances”</font> He laughed, another bolt flashing from his hands and colliding with the metal scrap whirling around his topless opponent. Before the energy could fully disperse he sent another, fueling the myriad of electricity arcing through the metal, jumping from bit to bit. <font color=""red"">”Come now, have we resorted to hiding?</font> He mused, feeling once more in control of the situation. <br/><br/>“What? Who are you?” Evelina looked left and right, her head turning left and right in search of the voice. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:You need not speak aloud. I can hear you if you think your answer to me.</span><br/><br/>Evelina blinked, a hand rising to her head unwittingly, almost as if trying to feel for an alien precense. “Wha—” <span class=""bb-i"">:Who are you?</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:I believe I am what your people call a Spark. That which gives you your powers as an Immortal. As to who I actually am, I call myself Fianna. I would say it was nice to meet you, but we have been together for quite a while already, so I will settle for: Pleased to finally talk to you.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:You are what made me Immortal? Does that mean you are a human?</span><br/><br/>A sound like that of bells echoed in her mind, Evelina suspecting that it was this Fianna laughing. <span class=""bb-i"">:No. I am not, nor will I ever be. I am, in fact, more akin to a sapient parasite, if I am to be honest.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:A virus? Like the Sickness?</span> She received an impression of a figure nodding. <span class=""bb-i"">:But you’re what allows me to control light?</span> Another nod.<br/><br/>[i]:I am. When I… emerged, you were dying in the desert. The light of the sun affected both you and I, giving you the ability to bend light to your—and my—will. But Evelina, there are more important matters than the origin of our union and your powers. Look up.[i] <br/><br/>Evelina did as asked, looking up. The metal wielding woman was currently engaged in battle with that beast, the former of the two having something black covering her hands and lower arms. <span class=""bb-i"">:How did she get up again? She was knocked out cold before.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:The black, beastly thing is called Aeshma, and is an Awakened form of us Sparks. He is the embodiment of rage and fury. Whoever is within no longer seems to be in control. The other woman, however, is only half awakened, it seems. I do not know how only her arms are affected, but it has happened.</span> She paused for a few moments, during which Evelina quietly watched the fight progress. It was violent, to say the least, and she doubted she’d be able to defend against some of those attacks. <br/><br/>Fianna spoke again. <span class=""bb-i"">The Immortal woman is half awakened, as I said, and Aeshma is fully awakened. That happens when a Spark, such as I, extends our influence to the outside of our Host’s body. It also increases said Immortal’s power substantially, in some cases even giving them new powers, although what they already have is empowered.</span><br/><br/>Her eyes widened, her heart skipped a beat. That was it, a chance, however small. <span class=""bb-i"">:So… can you do the same? To me? Can you help me beat that… thing? Aeshma? Can you make me strong enough to beat him?</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:Yes, and no.</span> The tone of Fianna’s voice was strange, it was sad with a mix of something else that Evelina couldn’t quite put her finger on.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:Why no?</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:I can do it, but it requires one of two things. Either I take over completely by force, taking your body for my own, even if only for a short while—</span> Evelina shuddered involuntarily. That must have been what happened to that girl within Aeshma. <span class=""bb-i"">—or I am to be allowed to do it by you. I can’t know your mind entirely, so it is up to you if you will allow me. I understand that it is a risk to take, given what is in front of you, bu—</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:I’ll do it!</span> Evelina grit her teeth, baring her fangs as she pulled her lips back in a snarl. <span class=""bb-i"">:If I can just become strong enough to beat him, then I am willing to trust you, even despite… whatever.</span> <br/><br/>Like she had gotten the impression of a nod before, now she got the impression of a smile. <span class=""bb-i"">:Thank you, and I will also apologize in advance.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">: What? Why?</span> <br/><br/>Yet again that bell-like laughter rang out in her mind, only this time it sounded somewhat hollow, and saddened. <span class=""bb-i"">Your mind was in a state of desperation when I first spoke to you, and you had already been… accepting of my presence, ever since I first made myself known to you through that dream. So I have been… extending my influence to outside of you ever since we started speaking. Forgive me. Look at yourself.</span><br/><br/>Evelina blinked yet again, a confused look on her face. She looked down at herself and was… shocked. Black chitin covered the entirety of her body, interlocking plates covering her torso, back, and sides, as well as single-piece plates covering most other places of her body. She looked, for all intents and purposes, humanoid. She had retained the wide hips of her human form, although a modest chest seemed to be sculpted into the chitin as well. <br/><br/>She continued the survey of herself, finding her feet to look like a pair of boots; flat footed, and like boots. Her hands were covered like everything else, although jointed at her knuckles and finger joints. At the tip of each finger extended a long, nail-like protrusion, thick and sharp like claws. The bigger surprise, however, was the horns extending from her temples, curving backwards following her scalp, a curving upwards again and narrowing into a needle-like tip, but even that paled in comparison to… something on her back. Craning turning her head enough that she could look behind her, she saw a pair of immense, appendages in the shape of leathery wings attached to the lower part of her back, but only with the skeletal structure of said wings, the joint turning upwards was tipped with a wicked looking point, thick and sharp and looking murderous to say the least, as were the ends of each ‘finger’ tipped with a wicked point, almost as murderous looking as the primary one. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">: What is this?</span> Evelina asked, wonder in her voice.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:My form, surrounding you.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Why…</span> She looked at her own chitin, then at Aeshma’s. <span class=""bb-i"">:Why is my… chitin? Different than his?</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:Like you, I do not like violence, and prefer defense to whittle down my enemy. The chitin on your torso, back, lower arms and hands, legs and feet, and your ‘wings’ are reinforced, making you far more durable than anyone else. However, your wings are incredibly powerful and more than capable of being used as weapons, so do not be afraid of using them in a fight: They can take it.</span> She chuckled, more light hearted this time. <span class=""bb-i"">:I hope you like the hair, too. It’s your length, but like silver threads of light instead. I prefer that colour over red, to be honest.</span><br/><br/>Evelina shook her head, bringing a few of the silver strands into view. They were pretty, she had to admit, but that was far from important at the moment. Stopping Aeshma was. <span class=""bb-i"">:Can I beat him now?</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:You can, if you fight well. Your chitin is strong, but it will not hold forever. But remember this…</span> <br/><br/>Evelina stood up fully, her fingers flexing and wings spread. The words of Fianna rang true in her mind, like a clarion call it rid her mind of fear and filled it with a determination unlike anything she had ever felt. She bent in her knees, wings spreading out behind her. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">There are three things that a wise man will always fear. The storm on the sea, the moon in the night, and the anger of a gentle soul.</span> Evelina’s eyes narrowed, the green light coming out from the eye holes in her chitin mask dimming.<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">:Let us be that soul.</span></span> <br/><br/>Her body disappeared, dissolving into light at a moment’s notice. She rushed forward faster than even sound itself, invisible in the noon light. However, barely a split second before she was on Aeshma, she materialized, clawed hand extended towards his face as she rapidly closed the last remaining distance between them, a shimmering barrier surrounding it. <br/><br/>The sudden appearance of this new foe came as a great surprise to Aeshma, who was currently focused on his partially awakened opponent. The attack came so fast he didn’t have time to react as a fist suddenly materialized with the being, connecting with his face. The strike was far stronger than he would have anticipated, but he hardly had a thought other than pain as he was sent tumbling towards the ground.<br/><br/>He skid to a stop in the dirt. He stood, sneering with amusement. <font color=""red"">”Ah.. Fianna..”</font> He started, working his jaw from side to side to ensure it was still correctly in place. <font color=""red"">”It’s still a mystery why you’re called <span class=""bb-i"">’The Gentle’</span>.. that was one hell of a punch,”</font> He complimented, laughing as he moved a little closer, still leaving some distance between them.<br/><br/>A slight glow radiated from every nook and crevice on his body as it filled with energy. The crackling torrents gathered around his body in swirls and sporadic bursts, bolting through the air and dissipating just as fast. Tiny arcs of lightning jumped between the tips of his claws as he concentrated his energy. <font color=""red"">”Shall we?”</font> He taunted.</div>"
155,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-04-10 08:56:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Bento calmly rolled up a cigarette and watched as the woman he’d seen spilling Winged blood the other day appear from backstage. The various goons were in a bit of an uproar, but men who fought with intimidation often found themselves terrified by a man without fear. They wouldn’t dare to approach. The windcaller placed his freshly rolled cigarette between his lips and reached for the box of matches on the bar. He struck the match against the box and raised the flame to the end of his cigarette, igniting the loose tobacco and pulling in to form a nice coal. A cloud of smoke passed gently from his lips and hung in the air for a moment. As the swirling grey tendrils dispersed Bento’s eyes caught the red glare of a woman’s scorn; a sight he was not altogether unfamiliar with. She sat down next to him, letting the silence hang in the short distance between them. Bento took an easy drink, perfectly content to wait it out. If this bloody-sleeved girl was any judge of character then they both knew she would speak first.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A theif?</span> Now that was amusing. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Lucy sent you a killer.”</span></font> Bento replied, staring out at the scene around him, emotionless as ever. He took a long drag of his cigarette before continuing, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Poor bastard should count himself lucky. Any other day of the week and he’d have been as dead as he is stupid… Very.”</font></span> Pouring the rest of his drink down his throat, Bento signaled for another. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“You should invest in a lost and found. I don’t know how they do things in Serenity, but here in Russell City, you come between an Immortal, and the sunglasses he left at your bar… Well… I guess you’ve already seen what happens.”</font></span><br/><br/>""And what is a killer, but a thief of lives?"" Lucania mused in reply, finally submitting to eye contact with the man. Lucy's killer was... not quite cadaverous, but he exuded an air of apathy. He was a large man, sculpted roughly by the harness of the Dust he reflected back at the world. In another life he could have been a leader, in this it appeared he had all but given up. He was senior to her-- although not buy as many years as he'd believe. He was a dirty man, a mangy man, and he seemed impartial to drink.<br/><br/>""In Serenity..."" She began, following the man's gaze outward, ""In Serenity, most Immortals have evolved past the fashion faux pas of wearing sunglasses indoors..."" Gently un-clasping her purse, she fished out her own cigarette and lighter, unhealthy as it may have been, she was already breathing in enough second hand smoke to suffocate a small child, ""Although, I suppose you already knew that,"" She set the tobacco alight, ""And certainly, if you knew that, you know my of family, our reputation, myself..."" She stole a short puff of smoke in the pause, ""You must also know, then, that this establishment abides by that norm we've set in Serenity."" Another silver stream of smoke added to a room already polluted with gray.<br/><br/>""You needed those sunglasses in the same way a flower needs bright petals..."" Breathing out a weak cloud, she ran a hand through her own hair, feeling the daisies laced throughout, ""Attention."" She stated unflinchingly, ""You wanted my undivided attention. Now you've got it."" Curiosity filled her voice, ""So tell me; for what purpose did Lucy send me a killer?""<br/><br/>Bento received his second drink, sipping at it more slowly than the last. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“It must be nice living in a world where all things revolve around a single, fixed point.”</font></span> He replied, letting the insult hang in the air as he took a long drag of his cigarette. <font color=""#92278f"">“Let me tell you a story… It begins with a man, captured by the Forsaken. They torture this man in ways you can hardly imagine. The beasts in those dungeons are by far the most creative sadists in the known world, and are given free reign upon the flesh of their enemies…”</font> The Immortal paused, allowing Lucania to linger on the thought.<br/><br/>Bento took a drag at his cigarette and a drink from his glass before continuing, telling the story as if it were a folk tale, rather than an autobiographical one. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“One of their favorite things to do was starve a prisoner for about a week or two, and then throw them in a cell with another starved prisoner. The first time it happens, a man tries to resist. He holds out as long as he can, continuing to starve himself. You don’t sleep. You watch your partner, vigilant at all times until one man finally breaks. The second time, you don’t wait. You know that nobody is coming for you. You know that this man will die. Dragging it on for another week will only make it harder…”</span></font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Well, eventually they throw this man in the mines, opening up the dungeons for new victims… And for the next six years this man sleeps underground, works underground, and by all expectations will die underground. Except he convinces his masters that he is trustworthy; he bares before them a broken soul and they bring him outside. The winds pick up around him, his Immortal powers returning. He slaughters them all, and from the bloody scar that he has carved into the earth, the man retrieves a gun, a vest, and a pair of sunglasses…”</font></span> At this, Bento paused again, filling his lungs again with the sweet taste of death. She could connect the dots from there.<br/><br/>Bento tipped his  drink back and drained it before finally turning to look Lucania in the face. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Russell City ain’t gonna play by your rules just cause you threw up a couple walls in it. So you want to ask why Lucy send you a killer? Because this sure as shit isn’t Serenity, kid, and when the Wings come busting through that door over there? Well... You’d better have a fucking pair of sunglasses…”</span></font><br/><br/>A slave.<br/><br/>On some level, that made sense to Lucania. The man seemed to have that look unique to the Forsaken about him. The Castalia's interactions with those black flag waving brutes had been all but non-existent, how she came to understand it, the small amount of dark-hearted marauders that might have posed a threat to Castalia territory came to understand that starting a battle of 'brain versus brawn' would be fruitless endeavor. Still, Lucania had seen the caravan, and that dreadful, empty look that slaves had about them. <br/><br/>In another lifetime, back when the Castalia family was just a group of razor blade, penny grabbing hoodlum in the territory that would become Serenity. She may not have shown, or even <span class=""bb-i"">felt</span>, that tinge of pathos she felt as he talked of his experiences with torture.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Interesting.</span><br/><br/>Yes, interesting indeed, that all it took was 30 years in bunkers to completely erase all strides humanity had taken in the Old World to eradicate the institution of human enslavement. Less interesting, more tragic, that her stock, the Castalia's, were not exempt from such barbarism.<br/><br/>Lucania sighed, cigarette hovering near lips just slightly agape. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Take it all with a grain of salt.</span><br/><br/>""Hmmm..."" Lucania shifted her weight under the man's intense glare, ""Compelling."" She didn't break his gaze, and with a calm drag, she calculated each word that followed, ""Bravado, too."" She blew out a plume of smoke, ""You enter my establishment, with the recommendation of my dear sister, I might add, spill the blood of my cousin and openly taunt those who might retaliate,"" A smirk appeared on her face, a playful golden gleam entered her eyes, ""And you appear completely unphased, by the way!"" The smirk remained, while her eyes dimmed to a thoughtful, critical brown, ""Based on that alone, I'd say you were after my heart, sir!""<br/><br/>""Of course, I can even understand why you might resent me. Perhaps you feel the need to highlight the differences between yourself and I? Remind me of my privileged with a story to pluck at the strings of the heart you're after for employ? I can understand that."" Her eyes narrowed slightly, a thin stream of smoke was blown out of her mouth as she leaned in, ""What I hope <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> can understand, is that I prefer you to keep your personal affairs separate from business... And from this moment forward, we will be discussing business."" <br/><br/>As she extinguished the still burning cigarette butt, levity returned to her eyes, ""It just so happens that I might be in the market for a killer."" Her grin became coy, ""Although, I do sincerely hope you realize that an important part of the position would be my protection from those who might... <span class=""bb-i"">otherwise persuade</span> me to wear said sunglasses. I will not hide who I am, be it in Serenity or Russel, Mr...?""<br/><br/>Of course, she had somehow managed to turn it all back on herself. She even constructed a narrative where all his actions were in some way orchestrated with some grand plan in mind. If that was the case she must have thought very highly of him, despite having known him for but a few minutes. Perhaps she was falling for him like her sister had? If there was one thing Bento didn’t need, it was any more Castalia women crawling into his bed…<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Cullen. The Windcaller.”</span></font> Bento replied, maintaining his lie. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Do not misunderstand me, I do not hold your birth against you, nor do I desire pity. I share my story with you to show you that I have no interest in bravado. Your cousin has bravado; it is a hollow confidence, and it will get him nowhere. You wonder if I am willing to protect you? I’d walk into a den of thieves and murderers, and kill a man over a pair of sunglasses. I’d insult the bloodiest mafia enforcer in the Dust just to speak my mind. What do you think I’d do for the kind of life someone like you could give?”</span></font><br/><br/>""I should hope you'd do whatever I may ask of you!"" She said, laughing at her own joke for an instant. Her composure became more temperate as it became apparent that the Windcaller didn't share her enthusiasm, ""I think you'll take the calculated risks."" Lucania concluded. <br/><br/>""Call me an optimist-- for perhaps I'm overestimating a stranger's abilities. But I don't think you knew he wouldn't fight back, or that I wouldn't take deadly offense-- I don't think you <span class=""bb-i"">knew</span> you could display your strengths to me. I think you were comfortable wagering your own life for the risk of displaying that strength. I appreciate that quality..."" She glared at the empty glass near Cullen, ""Or, you could be drunk?"" Shrugging, she continued, ""Though, I doubt someone with zero inhibitions would be so critical of those displaying bravado...""<br/><br/>""So,"" She clasped her hands together, ""A killer, a thief, a Windcaller, and a risk-taker! Seeking not the bravado and hubris that lies in public adoration, but content in his own silent satisfaction... You know, in another life, men like you were the greatest enforcers,"" <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">And, coincidentally, the greatest detectives...</span><br/><br/>""Let's say I were to seek your service in this very moment, Cullen. I want you to tell me-- what do you get out of the arrangement?""<br/><br/>Bento took a drag of his cigarette and exhaled to the side as Lucania told her joke. He allowed her the moment to laugh at her own joke. It was fortunate she did in fact; God knew the windcaller wouldn’t have. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I assure you, I am not drunk, and I am indeed confident that you have not overestimated my abilities. And I am equally as confident that in time you will find that I am even more dangerous than you might have initially observed, Ms. Castalia.”</font></span> Taking a final drag of his cigarette, the Immortal put out the burning ember in the ashtray. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“As for my terms… I will protect you and your interests, and in exchange you will provide for my needs. Food, drink, shelter, and whatever other things I might need to fulfill my job. I will take any life you ask me to in exchange for an agreed upon price, dependent upon the difficulty of the assignment. In addition, I ask for one high grade rifle round for each extra life I take under your employ.”</font></span> Bento paused for a moment, contemplating all the things he could ask of the Dust’s most powerful criminal organization. Drugs, women, power…<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“Also, I want the idiot to admit the sunglasses were mine. I’m not a fucking thief…”</span></font><br/><br/>Smoke hung still in the air between the two, Cullen let his terms known, Lucania, ignoring the unsure glare Carmela gave the man, let him say his piece. The clank of glass hitting the wood, the unsure steps of waitresses and alcoholics, and the swaggering beat the band played... they all fell behind the man's words, his demands. He was certainly sure of himself, and that quality is what piqued Lucania's interest in the man the most. She couldn't be sure it wasn't all bravado, but frankly, unlike the man, who probably only had the strength of his character to call his own-- she didn't care.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">'In addition, I ask for one high grade rifle round for each extra life I take under your employ'</span></span><br/><br/>Lucania broke her stoic business face with a bit of mirth. <span class=""bb-i"">A negotiator!</span> ""And what's to stop you from going on a rampage under my employ? What if my cousin bleeds out? Do you think his life would be worth one high grade round?"" Lucania paused, letting the question sink in, ""He's my blood, and <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> hesitate to say he's even worth an arrowhead..."" The clank of glass filled the smokey gray air, ""I'll pay high grade for any immediate threats neutralized-- I can agree on negotiation for assigned commissions-- extra lives can also be negotiated.""<br/><br/>Lucania stood, already envisioning the best way to curve her voice around the room in her mind's eye. She yelled, ""<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Tommy!</span></span>""<br/><br/>Bento watched as Tommy began to eagerly make his way over to the bar, and how the man’s smug grin and confident swagger gradually shifted towards a more puzzled expression. Before him, the outsider that had spilt the blood of the family sat next to it’s most brutal enforcer, looking calm and collected. Far from shaking in his boots as he would have expected, Bento stared back, eyes still concealed behind those damned sunglasses.<font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b""> “Very well, I can agree to those terms.”</span></font> He said, signaling for another drink from the bartender.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">“Wen weze finished wit you, y-ai’nt gonna look so bored n all, ya stupid fuck.”</span></font> Tommy said, mustering up what little courage he had left under a strong façade. <font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Wat gives cuz? Why ain’t dis cazzo piece a shit face down in da dirt, eh?”</span></font> He continued, his true insecurities beginning to surface.<br/><br/>""Tommy,"" Lucania placed a hand on the man's shoulder, ""This man-- our esteemed guest, our new... no, my new employee would like you to apologize for--"" She turned to Cullen, ""Just the sunglasses, right?""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Just the sunglasses.”</font></span> Bento confirmed, simultaneously reaching over to retrieve his drink from the bartender.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">“No ways Bawss! Youze really gonna work wit dis jabroni fuck? I ain’t bout ta ‘pologize to no pazzo goner!”</font></span> Tommy exclaimed, pausing to spit in Bento’s drink, turning to speak directly to his former assailant. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">“I gots a reputation ‘round he-ah, an weze Castalyaz gots honor fa da family, ya hear me? Youze ain’t gettin’ aways wit dis!”</font></span> As he spoke, Tommy raised his bloody and roughly bandaged hand, displaying it in testament to the crimes Bento had committed against the family. In response the Immortal grabbed him by the wrist, as he shot a quick look over to the lady with the tommy gun, warning her not to interfere.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“You really want to try your luck with me another time? Pull a gun, motherfucker, I dare you.”</font></span> The windcaller shot back, a trace of disdain creeping into his usual wooden demeanor. Tommy took the challenge and reached for the back of his waistband, and wrapped his fingers around a 9mm pistol, pulling it from his pants. In the interest of fairness, Bento had given him a head start, waiting until the gun was exposed before making his move. Drawing his right leg across his body, Bento then swept it back, hard. The motion took Tommy right off his feet, causing him to fall towards the ground, let down by Bento, who had maintained his hold on the other man’s wrist, rising to his feet as Tommy sank.<br/><br/>Tommy cried out in pain as the Immortal poured his drink out on the man’s wound. Pushing through the pain, Tommy raised his other arm, trying to point his gun at Bento’s head. Dropping the empty glass to the floor, he shot out a foot, knocking the gun out of Tommy’s hand, and sending it skidding across the floor. In a flash, Bento dropped a hand to his side, cocking and drawing his own weapon before Tommy could scream out the words, <font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">“I’m sorry!”</span></font> Bento released the man’s wounded hand and stood up straight. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">“I don’ wanna die! Cuz?! Help! Please! I ain’t know deyz was yer glasses, I’m sorry! Please don’t kill me!”</font></span> Tommy sniveled, his true nature finally revealed. He was nothing more than a coward, hiding behind the protection his name had afforded him his entire life.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Learn to shut your mouth. You’ll live longer.”</font></span> Bento eased the hammer down and holstered his weapon. Tommy was astounded by what had just happened. There was no trace of anger in his assailant’s voice, and his attack had been preformed without fear, or even the passionate rage one might have expected. Far more terrifying in fact, it appeared Bento had fought with cold indifference. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I apologize for the scene, Miss Castalia.”</font></span> Bento said sincerely, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“There will be no further incidents. With these terms met, I am now under your employ. From this point on, my hand is yours.""</font></span><br/><br/>""Scene?"" Lucania giggled, ""He looked as if he might wet himself-- honestly, he still might!"" The mirth on her face only served to further Tommy's shame. As he walked away, tail-between-legs, Lucania's laughter continued, un-stifled. If only she could have hired someone to torment that entitled brat before... ""No, no Cullen-- you're getting a bonus for that, that was golden..."" Gently unclasping her purse, she pulled out an excessively polished .308 bullet-- a sniper round. Snipers were few and far between in The Dust-- allowing for the usage of ornate golden bullets such as those to shine more as currency than as tools of long-range death. <br/><br/>No, Lucania tossing the bullet the short distance from where she sat to where Cullen was, was quite the opposite of a 'long range death.'<br/><br/>The ever present woman off to the side, Carmela, gave the worlds most silent scoff to signal her disapproval.<br/><br/>""What?"" Lucania said with some effort, residual laughter still managing to surface from within. ""You've <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> made him run off like that.""<br/><br/>The woman shrugged in response.<br/><br/>""Threatening to castrate him isn't the same thing, Carmela!"" Lucania sighed, a sigh filled with a repeated exasperation, ""Not only do <span class=""bb-i"">La Cosa Nostra</span> tennants forbid it, but honestly, I think it's starting to become a little bit tacky for us. Don't you think?""<br/><br/>Carmela crossed her arms.<br/><br/>And it became Lucania's turn to shrug in response, ""Cullen's my associate-- he isn't blood, same rules don't apply to him."" She waved as if the topic was as physical as the smoke that hung in the air, something she could dissipate with a wave of her hand, ""And <span class=""bb-i"">technically</span>, he wasn't even my associate then, you know..."" As her giggles returned to her, that signified the death of that conversation, and the birth of another, ""He probably needed to stop using that hand so much anyway,"" She looked to Cullen, ""If anything, you did him a favor. Maybe now he won't go blind!""<br/><br/>As she said the word 'blind' a sax player struck a discordant note causing momentary lapse in Lucania's joy, causing her to look to the stage. Observing the band, her mind still on business, even as she laughed at her own jokes.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps we should hire a few comedians for the bar...?</span><br/><br/>How very girlish Lucania was acting. Was it an act? She actually couldn't be sure. She certainly hadn't been this... expressive... in quite a while. Either way-- It was certainly in  heavy contrast, or perhaps in direct opposition, to her surroundings and company. Despite being open to the public for less than 24 hours, the golden gleam of the bar was already becoming a smokey, subdued brass. Carmela the stoic stood to her left, and sitting to her left was a man, who despite being capable, was very clearly not cashing in on any talents he may posses.<br/><br/>They sat, as equals in immortality and employee and employer; like some socially conscious 20th century painting they contrasted each other. <span class=""bb-i"">'The rich aristocrat and her dour companions'</span> would be titled, water colored, most likely. Perhaps the rich aristocrat could even be sitting, giggling, showering in her excess unconsciously, while planted firmly on horse. To further highlight differences in class.<br/><br/>""So, Mr. Cullen..."" She began, a few drinks later, a few songs later, ""Are you at all familiar with Aqueon crime?""<br/><br/>Bento swung his leg over Tommy’s flattened body, allowing him to hobble off in peace. Lucania’s pleasure was unexpected, but certainly spared the windcaller any sort of verbal concessions and apologies he might have been compelled to make himself. The question remained however, was she a true sadist, or merely unaware of the brutal realities of violence and pain. Wealth has long proved an effective shield. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I aim to please.”</font></span> Bento joked dryly, easily raising a hand and capturing the valuable currency tossed his way. The Immortal remained standing for a moment, watching the interaction between Lucania and her silent guardian, Carmela. Their exchange was interesting in both its one-sidedness, and the familiarity and ease with which Lucania spoke. The subtext within the wordless communication between employer and employee suggested a closeness and depth to their relationship uncommon in others of a similar dynamic.<br/><br/>Bento locked eyes with the solemn protector. Between the stoic bodyguard and the stone-faced champion an understanding passed unspoken. Bento’s had no intention to step on anyone’s toes. He understood that he was an outsider, and as Lucania so expertly noted, his greatest value hinged upon his remaining that way. <br/><br/>The bartender begrudgingly came over with a dustpan to clean up the broken glass on the floor. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“I apologize for the mess.”</font></span> Bento said. As casually as it had been passed to him, Bento discarded the golden bullet into pile of glass in the dustpan as the bartender stood to take it away. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“And if you could bring a bottle over, that would be appreciated.”</span></font> The poor man probably deserved it far more than Bento did. Besides, wealth was of no object to a man like him.<br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-b"">“Thank you, sir!”</span></font> The bartender replied, picking out the bullet and moving on to take care of his duties. Bento returned to his seat by Lucania and enjoyed a few more quality drinks as they sat in silence listening to the band on stage. Lucania broke the silence with her question, introducing a new topic to be discussed, presumably in regards to their future business.<br/><br/>Bento pulled out a rolled cigarette from the case in his vest, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Aqueon crime?”</font></span> He repeated? Placing the cigarette between his lips. Striking a match from the bar, the Immortal lit the tobacco, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Territory split between the Yakuza holed up in the main city centers, and the Traids controling the periphery. Both bound by their silly criminal honor code? I used to work for the Yakuza part time up in Gate’s Pass. Feels like another life, but it’s barely been a month since I left. Mostly just bounced for one of their brothels, their code is very particular about outsiders, but it wasn’t too hard to pick up enough of what was going on.”</font></span> Bento paused and took a drag, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“But I’m sure you don’t need a lesson on the subject, I’ve no doubt you’ve already done your homework… The question is: what is it that the Castalias are after in Aqeuon territory? Taking on the Triads, or betraying the Yakuza?”</font></span><br/><br/>Lucania's lips parted as the spoke, the experience with which the man spoke was impressive, and useful, knowledge, even bare bones of the constantly changing complexities of Aqueous traditions. Most Motum Diversum citizens seemed too content with the relative comforts of the Wing patrolled streets to ever acquire any knowledge of Aqueon culture beyond '<span class=""bb-i"">they give us water, they have a weird honor religion!?!?!?</span>' It was always a pleasant surprise to find people who were more than just a trigger finger and a gun-- even moreso when those people came to <span class=""bb-i"">her</span>, an even better bonus when the man stabs the sniveling cousin she'd wanted to do the same too for years. A fitting parting gesture from Lucy to somehow find the man. He was very clearly no ordinary citizen-- if his Immortality wasn't proof, his combat prowess and knowledge were ample evidence.<br/><br/>The dream she had last night came to mind, again. She had held a conversation with her mother, where they spoke, in esoteric terms, about change, about surprise. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">It was almost as if she knew...</span><br/><br/>""Honestly..."" Lucania leaned back in her chair, contemplating the question. A question she had been avoiding, a question the Immortal Windcaller didn't even hesitate to ask. ""I don't know yet."" She answered honestly, her eyes aimlessly surveyed the room, wandering thoughts laced her voice, ""I suppose I'm still looking for other options."" Shaking her head, she continued, ""The Yakuza, honorbound by an agreement with the Triads, have enlisted our family to do what they want, but can't.  Neutralize the threat. All with the promise of discounted water, greater profits and swaths of Southern Aqueon land."" Signaling for a waiter, Lucania requested a cup of coffee, two sugars... and a Bloody Mary, ""My father, a very likely candidate for the most incompetent <span class=""bb-i"">Sottocapo</span> in the history of the Cosa Nostra, obliviously relayed the news to <span class=""bb-i"">yesterday</span>. It comes from his father--"" She raised her hand, waving away both smoke and the details of her family's... <span class=""bb-i"">complicated</span> situation, ""I'm sure you already know the situation. Our Capo parrots the orders of a dreadful snake of a man, who himself isn't even of Castalia blood,"" Lucania looked at the drying bloodstains Tommy had left on Cullen, ""Not to imply that that's worth much..."" She gave a heaving sigh, ""It's just...""<br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-b"">“Here you are, ma'am.”</span></font> A bartender, the same as before, returned from the kitchen with Lucania's <span class=""bb-i"">interesting</span> beverages. Her attention never shifted from her conversation with Cullen, but she did pause she mumble a 'thanks Scotty' and obliviously toss the man a shiny bullet of some caliber or another. <font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-b"">“Thanks Miss Castalia!”</span></font><br/><br/>At least he was having a good morning.<br/><br/>""Mmm.."" Lucania's body shuddered from the first sip of the coffee, ""Damn fine..."" She whispered, the steam of the cup wafted around her face, melding with the smokey atmosphere. A warmth traveled through her body as she drank of the dark garmanbozic nectar, speeding her thoughts, life, an awareness of her heart's beat-- <span class=""bb-b"">NOW</span> she was awake.. She continued, now with caffeine fueled vigor, ""You might not care about any of this-- but it's context for what we'll be doing over the next few days. I think context is important to keep in mind when you consider doing a job, and doing that job right."" She took another slow, appreciative sip, ""You're right, in that Aqueous honor traditions can be silly. Needlessly silly. And so is my family-- I could give you a million anecdotes about the inefficiency of my family following the traditional mafia rules, to this day and age. It was something to provide a sense of identity in the beginning, sure. But now it's being exploited by a rat to kill us off and take control for himself."" She blew on the cup, ""Paolo the rat..."" She muttered between sips, ""That can work for us though. All of it. I just need to keep it in mind when I consider our options...""<br/><br/>""I'm not sure the game he's play in having me sent alone to conduct his underhanded diplomacy, but I know there's a way to play the cards to my favor..."" Another type of shudder shook her body as she exchanged the coffee for the Bloody Mary, ""That's where you come in. The River Dragon Triad of Tas is strong, 30,000 strong, last I checked, full of Immortals, known for their collective strength, unique battle techniques, and connections to Old World Hong Kong. Honestly, the Castalia's couldn't take them head on if we wanted-- you've seen the states of most of our members, men like Tommy, my Father-- if we had 1,000 truly competent men like Leo, then maybe..."" She clenched the bridge of her nose, the Bloody Mary hitting her system, ""It can't be helped..."" She muttered, switching back to her coffee, ""What <span class=""bb-i"">does</span> matter is that the Yakuza knows we couldn't take them directly, <span class=""bb-i"">WE</span> know we can't. Our specialty has always been our sneakiness... our scheming, certainly not our strength. Buying our enemies. You already know this.""<br/><br/>""So then, why send easily identified Bloody Sleeves, polylingual heiress, known publicly throughout Aqueous, with no instructions besides..."" Her voice became an amalgamation between he father's and Paolo's, ""'<span class=""bb-i"">Figure it out, Princess!</span>'"" A sip of coffee, followed by Bloody Mary, followed by another stutter, ""Alone, into potentially hostile territory, to broker... something?"" She exhaled, her tendency to be needlessly wordy was beginning to show, ""Either the Yakuza wants the Castalias to fail, Paolo wants <span class=""bb-i"">me</span> to fail, perhaps both, or... something more... sinister is going on.""<br/><br/>Bloody Mary. How appropriate, Bento mused. He would probably do well to switch to something lighter than straight whiskey himself, as he had started to feel a little more than loose. Signaling for a coffee as well, the Immortal continued to listen to Lucania explain the situation she found herself in. The situation he had been hired to fix. Bento took a long drag of his cigarette, tapping off the end into the ashtray as he released a thick plume of smoke from his lips. When the coffee quickly arrived Bento kept quiet, watching the potent, physical response spreading through Lucania’s face as she drank. A brief pang of subdued envy struck the Immortal; it had been a long time since he had felt something that way. The windcaller raised the dark liquid to his lips and drank deeply. He felt nothing. It was the simple things that hung heaviest in a weary heart. Bento poured the rest of his whiskey into the coffee.<br/><br/>Casting aside the few remnants of emotion he had left, Bento returned to the issue at hand. Lucania had been right, the former special operator indeed knew far more about the Castalia family than he let on. He had no personal interactions with them, but he’d read the files once upon a time. Much had changed in the past six years however, and with his newly updated perspective, Bento began to run the options in his head. Exchanging the hard coffee for his cigarette, he continued to listen intently. Another plume escaped his lips, <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">“The Yakuza are bloodthirsty and brutal… It doesn’t surprise me that they would try to break their agreement with the Triads.”</span></font> Bento stopped a moment, not wanting to push against his new boundaries, but he found himself determined to be more than just another gun. Cautiously he proceeded, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“Forgive me if I speak out of place, but according to your own estimations, this rat of yours does not have the necessary power to hold the Yakuza in check, should they take over the Aqueous territory. A pack of bloodhounds is only useful so long as they remain on their leashes, and I fear that this is not their intention. I do not mean to overstep my bounds in saying so, but I suggest you broker a deal with the Triads instead. By informing them of the Yakuza’s treachery, you free them from their agreement, and allow them to assault the Yakuza a full strength. From there, I can easily take care of your little rat problem. Unless of course, you’d prefer to do it yourself, in which case I can easily drag him before you for judgment…”</font></span><br/><br/>As Cullen spoke, Lucanaia alternated between partaking the spicy kick of the Bloody Mary and the unenervating liquid silk that was the coffee, she found that she consumed the latter with far more gumption than the former. Lucanaia watched the plume of smoke leave his lips, her own obscured by a slowly draining glass of red liquid. He spoke from experience, but something else... regret? contemplation? He knew the Triads and Yakuza-- more intimately than he let on-- but she couldn't tell where it all comae from. His tells were either well hidden, or completely worn away. Both...? It was moments like this that she wished everyone, or at least other immortals, shared her ocular condition... <span class=""bb-i"">or</span> that they were playing poker. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Christ, that's strong.</span><br/><br/>Back to the coffee; As she finished the mug, Cullen too, finished with a piece of advice. He was right, about a lot of it-- but not all. The sweet aroma of freshly roasted beans was already beginning to be replaced with the dull smoke again. She clicked her tongue, an annoyance expressed less at Cullen-- he proposed a very likely scenario-- and more at the situation.<br/><br/>""If only this were a rat we could snuff with an exterminator..."" With a shrug, she broke into an easy smile, ""Is it ever that simple though? Traditionally, a man in his role serves as an advisory figure to the Capo, otherwise detached from the Mafia... But our rat..."" She cast an amused glare to Cullen, ""Paolo Rivera? Senator, Serenity's power mogul? You partied with his wife last night?"" She took a giggling swig of the drink, ""He's done a good job keeping his relationship to us quiet publicly... But he's fostered a relationship with our men, shown them a lazy excess our ancestors fought to change.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">The same ancestors whose traditions made all this silly infighting and corruption possible.</span><br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Were</span> I to oust him so simply, I'd wager we'd loose half the manpower he's won over in a about a week."" She found her gaze wandering back to the band, ""He's cultivated for us a gang of hedonists-- For over 200 years, the Castalias maintained a comfortable control of Serenity. That man begins advising my grandfather around the time I'm born, and we expand from Parkland to Wolfwater to Russel. Most of it was needless expansion, what wasn't was overseen personally by me. Now, we're going to be facing a full assault from the Wings, and we've nowhere left to expand-- it's suicide to approach Aqueon and Forsaken cities. In-fighting is going to be inevitable, soon, and he knows it. I want to avoid that for as long as possible.""<br/><br/>""Don't mistake that as making exceptions,"" She added quickly, an edge to her voice, ""I have every intention of killing him. I'd just like to minimize the inevitable fallout. He's got a materialistic love among some in the family-- killing him out in the open would make him some kind of martyr-- whereas killing 'Bloody Sleeves' would be like... putting down an emotionally rabid dog..."" She sighed, letting a particularly soulful bass solo play out before she continued, ""We need to be smart about it.""<br/><br/>""Right now, though-- that's neither here nor there!"" She clasped her hands together, a golden mirth returning to her irises, ""I agree completely with your assessment of the situation at hand. Allying with the Triads could put us in a position of power against the Yakuza and serve as a powerful ally against the rat."" She stood, ""Of course, they'd see Bloody Sleeves coming from a thousand miles away atop their Kowloon skyscrapers, and I imagine the Wings are frothing at their mouths about now..."" With a chuckle, she gave another shrug, ""I suppose it's time to re-brand."" Pausing after the statement, she stared into space, as if processing the contents of an entire library. <br/><br/>When she spoke again, it was in a different, smokier voice.<br/><br/>""And you, Windcaller? I mean no offense, but your outfit is... Umm... rather <span class=""bb-i"">threadbare</span>..""<br/><br/>Bento drank his dirty coffee and reflected on the situation Lucania had laid out before him. She was right, of course. Bento had little taste for politics, but even he had to admit the situation warranted a little more finesse than his usual bull-in-the-china-shop routine. It should have been obvious of course, that in his attempts at navigating the criminal underworld, the Immortal would be a playing a very different game than before. His entire life Bento had been working to destroy empires; it would be interesting to be a part of building one. He had to admit he was a little surprised to hear that Lucy was married. Guilt played no part in it, she just really didn’t really seem like the type thinking about settling down. Perhaps it was more politics. Poor girl.<br/><br/>By the time Lucania finished explaining the situation and their path forward, Bento had finished his coffee. The comment about his clothes provoked little more than an amused grunt as the windcaller finished his cigarette and discarded the butt into his empty cup on the bar. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">“That’s sounds like a rather fair assessment. Not only of the present situation, but-”</font></span> He began, pausing for a look down at ragged shirt and dusty vest. The whole ensemble had been greyed significantly since he came into possession of it, not to mention the numerous bloodstains, both new and old. “<font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">The slums certainly can take hold of a man…” </span></font><br/></div>"

Shapes like claws, and eerily natural looking armor that moved with inhuman swiftness. Energy arced through the air, creating strings of invisible light and now clutched by fear Ivan understood what was happening. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#f7976a"">Hollow</font>,"" he breathed, slinking further down the hill and trying to analyze his options. His instinct told him to run, and just leave the other two people down there to meet whatever fate would befall them. They were immortals, one could bend some sort of energy- electricity maybe, and the other could shift metal, surely they would be alri-<br/><br/>Ivan's train of thought was silenced by the dry, inhuman laughter he heard. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f7976a"">Nobody deserves to die to a hollow</font>,</span> he thought, worming back up the hill and shouldering his rocket launcher. His plan was simple: Shoot at the hollow and create a distraction, maybe even hurt it. Should the thing give chase Ivan had outrun them before. So he steadied the weapon and looked along the barrel, aiming for the hollow as his better judgement told him to run. He hadn't fired though, no. Before he could pull the trigger something happened that could have made his hair go white. It hadn't been one of the people that was wielding the arcs of energy, it was the monster, and Ivan watched as the dust in the air became further disturbed before the hollow slammed the ground and sent an explosive cloud erupting into the air.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#f7976a"">Nope</font>,"" he breathed, pushing his weapon into the sleeve on his backpack and letting the dust beneath him slide away. He was behind the hill moving quickly, crouched low to the ground as a mound of dirt rolled him away at a rather impressive speed. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f7976a"">I'm not a coward- just smart</font>,</span> he told himself, thinking briefly about which direction the truck had come from and altering his course slightly. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f7976a"">New plan: find where the truck came from, find the people there that would have guns, tell them to get the fucking lead out and hunt down whatever that thing is.</font></span><br/><br/>---------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>There came a point that James realized he was in over his head.  He slowed his pace from a run, to a jog, and then came to a full stop just less than a kilometer away from where the fight was taking place.  Something told him he was completely misreading this situation.  What it was that perturbed him, he didn’t quite know, but there was something about the hollow, something different.  Well, that much was obvious; immortals don’t turn into hollows.  Even still, it wasn’t that exactly that got to him, it was the hollow itself.  Was it even a hollow?<br/><br/>As the dust around them grew thick, James had to focus to keep track of what was happening.  Even for him, the cloud of sand was proving a challenge to see through.  Still, he could make out a few details, like that the woman who got knocked out came to.  James would have said that was a good thing if her hands didn’t seem to grow a sort of black armor.  Out of nothing.  Almost like that of the hollow.<br/><br/>It was at this moment James knew that getting involved would be futile at best and fatal at worst.  It crossed his mind that he should probably run, but at the same time he was curious.  That and it would probably prove advantageous for him to know more about what exactly was happening and what these things were.<br/><br/>He heard a shifting in the sands to his left.  He turned and saw another figure not too far off, moving opposite the direction James had been going but parallel to his own path. The person was clad completely in padding and dirty rags, no flesh exposed as even their head was hidden by a cloth bag. Poking out over their back was a loaded rocket launcher, and they kept one gloved fist over the handle in preparation of drawing the weapon. <br/><br/>Ivan's legs didn’t move as he rushed over a small dune, gliding over the dirt on a small pile of rolling dust. In a fluid motion he spun on his heels while keeping his momentum in the same direction, looking back the way he’d just come. As Ivan spun to face forward again, chance would have it that it would be as he passed where James stood, and Ivan’s hooded face became locked in his direction. The mound of dust he had been riding melted away, and his heels ground into the earth to stop at what was about thirty meters from this other person who he currently only saw as a dusty pair of pants and boots. Unsure what to do, Ivan just stood there, watching behind a cloth mask with one fist still over the rocket launcher’s handle.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Another one?”</font> James couldn’t help but say aloud.  This man, at least he assumed it was a man, had a fairly imposing stature, one which his attire of ratty-looking scraps of cloth helped to accentuate.  It seemed rather peculiar to him that for the first time he’d ever seen other immortals he’d happened upon four of them.  Given the way he held the rocket launcher, it wouldn’t at all surprise him if he were about to put it to use.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“I wouldn’t use that thing, personally,”</font> James said.  He looked back towards the fight, just in time to see the third woman begin to transform as well.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Shiiiiit.  I definitely wouldn’t use it now,”</font> he added.  This fight was getting out of hand, but what good would that rocket launcher do?  Given the way the fight was going on, it definitely seemed as though the hollows, or immortal hollows, or whatever they were still retained their powers.  At this point, <span class=""bb-i"">any</span> conventional weaponry would likely prove to be inefficacious.  At that thought, James let out a defeated sigh and unloaded his AK.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Dammit.  What can we do at this point other than watch?”</font>  He chuckled a bit.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I mean, I guess we could get help, but how much good do you think that’ll be?”</font><br/><br/>For a short while Ivan had only stood in silence, almost drawing his weapon after hearing what sounded like a gun but keeping his head about him as he listened to what James had to say. At the mention of a fight, Ivan turned his head for a moment to look back the way he had come and could see the cloud of dust was already a fair ways away but still close enough to hear some of the sounds of battle. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#f7976a"">You saw that shit too then!?</font>” Ivan croaked, having raised his voice at all for the first time in a while. To avoid half shouting anymore to speak, Ivan let his fist drop from his weapon’s handle and began approaching the man at a steady pace, stopping again only when they were a few feet apart. “<font color=""#f7976a"">What’s going on back there</font>,” he stated, pointing back to the static cloud of dirt floating in the air, “<font color=""#f7976a"">it isn’t right. The ‘ell are you doing out here anyways?</font>” he then accused, noticing a breeze come by and taking advantage of it to wave some dirt onto this man’s upper body hopefully without notice. Ivan believed his identity as ‘immortal’ had yet to be realized, his abilities having been mistaken before for simply slipping down the sides of dunes. Gusts of wind always kicked up dust as well, sometimes it just needed a push in the right direction.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Whatever it is, it can’t be good.  Immortals don’t turn into hollows, and no one turns into a hollow that goddamned quickly,”</font> James replied.  His eyes instinctively moved towards the man’s hand as he seemed to motion for the sand to flow with it.  His timing was good, but James could still see the difference between the sand that was naturally kicked up in the wind and the sand this man seemed to manipulate.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Your subtlety may fool some, but not much gets by me,”</font> he said, turning his gaze to the man’s face.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I’m not sure what you were trying to accomplish just then, but I can tell you’re an immortal.  Don’t worry, you’re in good company,”</font> he said, turning and lifting his goggles briefly to give the man a good look at his eyes.<br/><br/>Even from here, James could hear the punch the winged one inflicted on the first… thing, sending it tumbling back and kicking up a fair amount of dust with it.  James turned back towards the fight, lowering himself to a crouch and sticking the stock of his AK into the sand to use it as a support.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“As for what I’m doing here, that’s not really your business but I’ll tell you anyways.  I was on my way to Russell City, saw the commotion and had to see what was happening.  At this point I almost wish I had just ignored it.  Either way, it would seem prudent to observe, lest something like this happens again,”</font> James said, very matter-of-factly.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#f7976a"">Oh</font>,” was the only response Ivan could muster, surprised by the casual and collected tone James spoke with. He took a moment to absorb what had just been said, mostly piecing together what he’d spoke of after so casually mentioning that he knew of Ivan’s immortal status. “<font color=""#f7976a"">Good company</font>,” he mused briefly, looking down as James crouched, “<font color=""#f7976a"">I like good company</font>.”<br/><br/>In a fluent motion Ivan crossed his legs and sat on the ground beside where James sat, turning his attention to the brawl and placing his hands on his knees. “<font color=""#f7976a"">I’m assuming ‘good company’ means ‘fellow immortal’, am I correct?</font>” he then asked, having been unable to see James’ eyes when they were shown to him. In fact Ivan was unable to really see any of James’ head as it was, with his legs and boots being most visible and his upper body very faintly dusted. “<font color=""#f7976a"">I’m Ivan by the way</font>,” he then added, for a moment forgetting why he had been fleeing not long ago. The very prospect of someone to speak with entertained him, and at being shown no hostility it further intrigued the rag covered man.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, if we’re using the colloquial term, then yes I am an immortal.  You can call me James,”</font> James replied as the man sat down.  The telltale details of Ivan not realizing James was immortal, even after he plainly showed his eyes, took a moment to catch up with him.  James hadn’t gotten a good look at Ivan’s eyes but he could see them well enough, and while there weren’t any visible pupils to speak of, he figured that was simply a part of his mutation.  Was he blind?  It wasn’t impossible.  Maybe him being able to see through some sort of medium was how he had been able to detect James.  It was something he would have to ask the man later, but for now James’ focus was on the fight at hand.<br/><br/>Ivan nodded with the mention of James’ name, smiling slightly under his hood but quickly returning his attention to the electrified cloud of dust the two were now observing. While he still intended to go tell someone in the city, he saw it as beneficial to stay here for the time being. While he was unable to properly observe the fight from here like James seemed to want, this had been the first time for a few years Ivan had spoken with another, for now supposed, immortal. His curiosity currently winning over his sense, Ivan shifted his crossed legs slightly to be more comfortable as he decided to wait things out.</div>"

Had that woman just… &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Ah, Fianna “the Gentle”. Great punch, though I think we might need to update the dictionary. Oh also, he’s not paying attention to you right now. Try hitting him or something. That might be fun. Wonder what’d happen if you… nevermind, stupid question. Try punching him in the face again though, seemed to work pretty well, good asshole repellant. Anyway, shouting about Mother Russia is optional, though if you say it enough it could become your catchphrase!</span>&lt; Vladimira shut out Pandora, the Spark’s mumblings were distracting, and distracting was a bad thing at the moment.<br/><br/>She coalesced the metal around herself, part of it reforming at her feet into another sheet for her to step onto, the remainder clouded into a wickedly sharp cloud that churned and sliced at the air in front of her. Levitating herself up, she hurtled forward silently, her right arm cocked back for another punch as her left manipulated her metallic tornado into several wicked looking spikes. She neared him, noting with satisfaction that he appeared to be distracted with Fianna/whoever the other woman was… or had been.<br/><br/>She didn’t scream, shout, or yell, hoping to keep the element of surprise until she was right in his face. <br/><br/>To say that Evelina was surprised at her speed would be a gross understatement. She had thought to be fast before, but the speed she now possessed was in an entirely different league. She didn’t know if it was to be credited to Fianna or not, but she no longer felt fear from Aeshma. In fact, he felt like little more than just another hollow to be defeated.<br/><br/>She flexed her fingers, watching the long, claw-like nails extended past their tip, each thick and sharp enough to be considered a weapon. She further studied her new body, noting the small rivulets running along her armour, like tiny veins engraved in it with equally small points of light dotting those veins.<br/><br/>She looked up again, her gaze falling upon Aeshma, electricity jumping across his body. With just the tiniest flex of her will, she summoned a small, spherical orb in the palm of one hand shining with a gentle light. She didn’t do anything with it quite yet, resorting to simply observing—watching as the metal-wielding woman went in for another attack. <span class=""bb-i"">Not a good idea, not a good idea!</span> Her entire body tensed, prepared to react to anything.<br/><br/>Aeshma watched his quarry warily, his body tense and ready to react to anything she would throw at him. He was entirely focused on the fight, everything else was of unimportance, though something kept pulling at the back of his thoughts. He was powerful, he was in control, but his host was still fighting him internally. He grit his teeth in irritation, refusing to split his attention away from his prey. He would not entertain the weak minded woman’s consciousness, not yet, she could not take control away from him.<br/><br/>He had let himself become distracted, and now the second woman was nearly on top of him. He had let her get far too close, but it was no matter. She was only partially awakened, and he was prepared. Metal spikes hurtled towards him, and for a split second he did nothing but let them come closer. Just before they reached him, he dispersed.<br/><br/>His body became a torrent made up of thousands of little energy particles. The spikes crackled as they passed through him, though Aeshma held his form easily against the pull of the conductive surfaces of the metal. He moved forward, a flash of electricity passing through the metal manipulator’s body like a lightning strike. He smashed into the ground in a flash of light, and an expulsion of energy as his body reformed. Without wasting a second, a ball of lightning hurtled towards Evelina, crackling with explosive energy.<br/><br/>Vladimira spasmed again as Aeshma turned into lightning, flashing through her. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Your talent for self destruction has not been hindered, it seems. Please don’t get me killed.</span>&lt; She fell to the ground, muscles tight and not responding to her willing them to move. <br/><br/>A moment later and the paralysis had passed. Aeshma was throwing lightning at Evelina, apparently not paying any more attention to her. With as subtle a movement as she could manage she launched the metal spikes at Aeshma again, scrambling for her own metal sheet to get her to a safe distance again. <br/><br/>She grasped it and didn’t even bother molding it to her hands, holding on as tightly as she could as she launched the piece of steel forwards, anywhere but right below Aeshma.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I’m starting to get tired,</span> Evelina noted, feeling the beat of her heart getting faster. <span class=""bb-i"">I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up before it becomes dangerous.</span> She glanced down at the orb in her palm, noting the power she could feel emanating from it. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Soon I should be able to—</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">:Reflect!</span><br/><br/>Evelina looked up at the mental shout, seeing Aeshma’s hand extended towards her and the subsequent blast of lightning coming from it. She didn’t even thinking twice before obeying, knowing that any time she used replying or thinking would take too long. The lightning bolt came closer and closer as she raised her arm as quickly as she could, a barrier forming in front of her shaped out of the light orb in her palm. The bolt hit in a wild shower of sparks, and the bolt reflected back at Aeshma almost immediately, screaming towards him in a deadly arc. <br/><br/>Without wasting even a second more she took off, launching herself towards Aeshma as a collection of invisible light particles. Much like she had done before she materialized just as she was about to him him, only this time she had changed direction to come from behind. Right arm extended, palm pointed at him, she rushed to close the remaining few centimetres between them. <br/><br/>Aeshma grinned, watching the other awakened dissolve into the same trick of the eye once again, but this time he was ready for her. She was slower, the effort of her little hat trick was obviously draining, and it would cost her. He grabbed her extended arm, whipping her towards the ground violently. A cloud of dust exploded into the air from the force of the impact. Aeshma's fist swirled with electricity as he brought it down on her back, the resounding crack was audible and loud. He smiled in satisfaction as he hit her again with the opposite hand, equally fueled by his electricity. Tiny webs of lightning exploded into the air as he hit her again, with another loud crack. <br/><br/>The metal woman had seemed to of had enough, Aeshma noted, as she was currently fleeing away from him on a piece of metal. He dropped the metal projectile from his talons, letting it hit the earth harmlessly. He would track her down as soon as he was finished here, the thought crossed his mind as he stood above Fianna's form. A dry laugh escaped his twisted maw. <br/><br/>Above the clouds of dust swirled, forming a fully fledged dark tempest above. The clouds crackled with the energy they had gathered from the charged air. A bolt of lightning skittered across the underbelly of the clouds, followed by the hollow boom of thunder. A single drop of water departed from the clouds, on a collision course for the earth. This made Aeshma pause, as he noticed the sprinkle of water starting to fall around him. He cursed silently, taking a step back from the woman lying on the ground. A droplet hit him and immediately became engulfed in sparks. Aeshma flinched as an arc of electricity was coerced out of his body, towards the droplets of water. The arc snaked its way through the falling drops, before dissipating.<br/><br/>He began to run. He knew very well his weakness, and another crack of thunder spurred him on. But the coming storm was faster than he was, and covered an expansive area. He howled in pain and rage as the torrential downpour of water collided with his body, sucking the energy from it. A hum filled the area as his energy released out into the open air, like the drone of machinery with a high current. The wild arcs of electricity skipped from droplet to droplet, draining him dry. His blackened feet pounded into the quickly moistening earth, but he could feel his strength waning. Another large burst of lightning exploded from his body as the rain continued to short circuit him. <br/><br/>It seems his fun was over for now, he could feel himself receding, being drawn back into his host. His form flecked away like pieces of shed skin, drifting into the air and becoming nothing but dust in the wind. Aeshma's control was ripped away as Alex fervently clawed her way back into the forefront of her mind. <font color=""red"">'THIS IS MINE'</font> She screamed mentally. The thought of a hostile growl answered her, but the other being did not resist. Suddenly she felt in control again, torn away from the blissful nothingness that was the back of her mind. She had watched the entire fight through her own eyes, she had felt the fury and the rage. The pleasure of it. She felt sick.<br/><br/>The last bits of blackened form drifted away as Alex fell to her knees, her stomach emptying out bile and acid onto the damp earth. The rain felt cool against her skin. Alex knew what it was, but it had never rained on Dust. It didn't make sense to her, but nothing made sense to her as of late. The humor may have been lost on her, but she let out a chuckle. That chuckle quickly turned into a crazed laughter, the kind of laugh only someone with a deteriorated mental state could emit. For a time she kneeled there, hovering over her bile on all fours, laughing as her soaked hair hung wildly around her face. All things considered, she looked quite insane.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>About 3:00pm.<br/><br/>Alex looked up at the storm clouds, it had been raining for over an hour straight. The streets of Russel City were quickly turning into tiny rivers of water. People milled about, half of them still standing in awe staring at the clouds, hued in dark grays and black. Some held up buckets, or items of that likeness, to collect it. Some simply stuck their tongues out, letting the moisture gather, trying to taste it. One side of Alex's mouth turned down into a half frown, <font color=""red"">""Goddamn Standards.. stand around and ignore your lives.. it's all going to change soon.""</font><br/><br/>She found herself standing in front of her housing complex, the key to her small home dangling from a metal circle, currently looped around her finger. She watched it idly, as a woman came striding towards her. <font color=""green"">""Listen.. Alex.. I haven't heard-""</font> Alex held up a hand, mustering the biggest most flattering smile she could manage.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""I'm about to change your life Missand,""</font> She said, showing her the key. This caught the other woman's interest, and with a hand on her hip, she quirked an eyebrow to acknowledge that she was interested. <br/><br/><font color=""red"">""I solved the mystery. Tell everybody you know, the Immortals are gathering at Isolone,""</font> Alex smiled, in fact, considering everything she felt relaxed. She felt more at whole. On the inside she was she shaken, still terrified, still confused. Yet, some part of her felt reborn, at terms with this strange, new life, and determined to see it through to the end. She wasn't going to find a better life, she was going to make it. She was going to make a difference. No, she was going to be the difference.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Seriously?""</font> Missand asked, though it hardly seemed like a question as the tall dark haired woman strode forward and took the key from Alex's hand. She crossed her arms over her ample bussim, momentarily covering the visible cleavage from the low cut shirt. <font color=""green"">""You sure about this Alex?""</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">""As sure as I have ever been,""</font> She said honestly, <font color=""red"">""Go, take a look. You can have it all, I've already got what I need,""</font> Alex finished, gesturing towards the backpack she was wearing and the two large duffel bags at her feet. <font color=""red"">""Oh, one more thing. I'm going to need a water truck, and another one carrying nonperishables,""</font> Alex smiled once more as she said this, as if the request was easily manageable.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""You have gold in there? That's some request you're making, I hope that leaves me a hefty cut,""</font> Missand said, doubt heavy in her voice.<br/><br/>A moment later and Missand's mouth hung agape, standing at the threshold of the apartment. <font color=""green"">""My god woman, do you throw anything away? Oh my god! Look at this dress! Oh!""</font> Missand scurried around the apartment, picking up articles of clothing, checking out ancient knick-knacks, and other eye catching items prominent in Alex's treasure trove. <font color=""green"">""There is a lot here.. I've never been one to lie to you Alex, this stuff is worth a lot more than what you're asking.</font><br/><br/>Alex chuckled, <font color=""red"">""Fine, throw in a new truck, you remember my old one?""</font><br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Hell, I could probably get you two,""</font> Missand replied. They broke down into a fit of giggles at that, though Missand was still possessively clutching a dress to her side.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""You can have the place too, I'm leaving, I've got a ride set up. There should be enough left over to carry you for about a month, which is a damn good deal for just playing the middleman,""</font> <br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Aye aye captain!""</font> Missand half shouted, playfully saluting, <font color=""green"">""Must be some operation going on there, if asked, who should I send these other Immortals too?""</font><br/><br/>Alex turned, pausing at the doorway melodramatically, <font color=""red"">""Tell them I sent out the call.""</font><br/><br/>Without another word Alex turned and left, feeling confident Missand would uphold her end of the bargain. Afterall, the woman had been good friends with Cassie.      <br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Translations and pronunciations"" type=""button"">Translations and pronunciations [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Чё за галима?! - What the fuck?! - chyo za galima?!<br/><br/>Ад - Hell - Ad<br/><br/>Дерьмо! - Shit! - Derr’mo!<br/><br/>Совкуоплятьшому му дак! - Fucking asshole! - Sovkuoplyatshomu mudak!)</div></div><br/></div>"

The truck hit another bump in the road and Arcus- in the passenger seat- scrambled to keep his journal from being sent out the open window. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A warrior is not a man who does not fear death. A warrior is someone who accepts death, for such is their duty. A warrior is not simply a man who fights; could a child merely pick up a sword and rightfully be called a warrior?

No- a warrior is one who sacrifices himself for the good of others.</span><br/><br/>Arcus was reading what he had written earlier, trying to forget the events that had transpired that had led him to his current position. Why had <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> shown up in Faribury? That was no small trek, even for the conditioned athleticism for Forsaken goons. His teal eyes left the page and glanced out the open window as the terrain flew by- the truck hit yet another bump and Arcus' journal was sent sprawling on the floorboard under his feet. He left it- it did not concern him right now. He couldn't reach his back in the backseat to lock it away, anyway. <br/><br/>The driver glanced over and tapped on a perplexed Arcus' shoulder. Either this man had a good sense of empathy or Arcus wore an obvious mask of discomfort. <br/><br/>""You alright?"" he probed. <br/><br/>Arcus nodded but did not turn from his window.<br/><br/>--<br/><span class=""bb-i"">That morning-</span><br/><br/>The center of Fairbury was bustling and Arcus had begun to lose track of time when he finally opened his eyes. Spending too much time in deep thought did that to you, it was almost like sleeping. His journal lay open in his lap and his pen was to the page, ready to write, but no more words came to his old mind. With a sigh the old warrior deposited his journal and pen back into his satchel in exchange for a strip of jerky. In towns Arcus usually offered physical labor in exchange for a meal, so as not to diminish his ""backup"" supply of dried jerky, but the factors of soreness and non-familiarity with the town led him think otherwise. Around here it seemed mental strength was more prized than physical, unless you were one devoted to guarding the city, in which case people seemed to <span class=""bb-i"">only</span> judge you on physical strength. Arcus would treasure a job such as that, but after what he had witnessed on his way in he wasn't so sure. He was too old, at least for anything <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> tough to fight. Perhaps he could settle here, then, and offer his services as a trainer of sorts? With his experience and prowess he could at least offer himself as a mentor for young talent looking to guard the city..<br/><br/>These thoughts streamed through Arcus' mind as he chewed on the tough ration and wandered back towards his apartment. Well, it wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> apartment, per se, but as far as he knew the merchant who had offered to him had either died or left for Arcus hadn't heard or seen of him since he woke him up. Come to think of it, he wasn't even sure where one who actually <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> business here is Fairbury. It felt like every building contained the white-coated thinkers pertinent of the city. <br/><br/>He pushed open the heavy door and and dropped his satchel on the floor, sending a few empty canteens clattering. A figure stood before him, one who looked as old as Arcus but in much healthier shape. Though he faced away looking out the window, Arcus could recognize the scarred face and bald head anywhere.<br/><br/>""Ursa,"" grunted Arcus.<br/><br/>The scarred and hulking mass of muscle turned to him and smiled, folding his hands behind his back. <br/><br/>""Arcus. Was beginning to think that infection finally got to ya'."" He chuckled to himself- with his raspy voice, it sounded like to sheets of paper rubbing against each other. <br/><br/>""What are you doing here?""<br/><br/>Ursa's step forward was met with a step backward from Arcus.<br/><br/>""Was in town; chatted with one of the local businessmen. Had a nasty scar but said he had been saved by a big fella' with a rather..<span class=""bb-i"">unique</span> set of weaponry."" Ursa glanced at Brute who was still propped up in the corner. <br/><br/>""Figured two deserters like us could do some..catching up.""<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">You</span>, a deserter? Go fuck yourself, Ursa, you take me for a fool.""<br/><br/>The bald man's face contorted in his attempt to hold back a scowl. His arms tightened and veins visibly shown across his bulging muscles and head. <br/><br/>""Arcus, or should I call you <span class=""bb-i"">Evans</span>? How about Warlord- You among anyone should know well that my loyalties lie where I choose to place them. Your..disappearance simply spurred me to make a similar choice. The life of a Forsaken no longer suited me.""<br/><br/>""You followed me here, you-""<br/><br/>""Mere coincidence,"" Ursa rose a hand, ""that our paths have crossed.""<br/><br/>""Right,"" Arcus quickly reached and grabbed Brute, holding it out, positioning himself to strike.<br/><br/>""Get out of here, Ursa, else Brute starts negotiating.""<br/><br/>Ursa looked flabbergasted and stood motionless and silent for several moments. With a sigh, he finally replied:<br/><br/>""So be it, Arcus. But you would do well to find a new purpose."" <br/><br/>Arcus didn't loosen his grip on Brute until Ursa's heavy footsteps could no longer be heard.<br/>---<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">the Present-</span> <br/><br/>Ursa and Arcus had quite a history together- they had both served a substantial amount of years in the Legion together, and were a lethal pairing on the battlefield. Ursa had always been a better fighter, but Arcus had the quick wits to keep them alive. He'd never known a more devoted man to the Legion's cause; it was as if the man existed to kill others for some vague ""cause"" he had little understanding of. He was the type of man to take and execute orders without further thought or questions- a good soldier, perhaps, but a bad human being. Arcus wasn't about to believe his story of desertion, or that their meeting in Fairbury was chance. He was of the notion he was <span class=""bb-i"">sent</span> there, but by who or for why, he wasn't sure. It wasn't like the Forsaken to send assassins, they very much had a ""kill on sight"" dogma that was more dependent on raw gruntwork and fear than anything as precise and fine as assassinations. <br/><br/>After their meeting Arcus was quick to find a way out of town, a task that wasn't easy for Fairbury residents. Luckily, Arcus caught another caravan on its departure- different from the one he helped escort in- that seemed to have a few other additions to their crew as well. This caravan seemed much more prepared and well equipped than the previous, they must've made this trip several times and had an idea of what to expect. Luckily, the trip out went much more smoothly than the trip in. Afterwards, the other man that wasn't part of the caravan went separate ways, and Arcus, not wanting to be slowed by a large caravan, politely asked if he could join him on his ride to Russel City. Being only a moderately short ride away, the man had accepted. <br/><br/>And now here Arcus was- his mind swimming and questions constantly gnawing at the outskirts of his mind as he tried to keep his queasy insides from being sludgy outsides as the bumpy road to Russel City nearly took another victim. He would probably need a new cover identity here, in Motum Diversum territory. At least, last he <span class=""bb-i"">checked</span>, it was Motum Diversum. He shook the worries and thoughts from his head- he'd wing it. Right now he had too much on his mind to add to the pile, and all he wanted to do was rest a moment and sort it all out. <br/><br/>--<br/><span class=""bb-i"">About 4:00 p.m.-</span><br/><br/>Next thing Arcus knew, he was being shook awake from the kind traveler in the driver's seat.<br/><br/>""Hey. Hey! We're here. You don't look so good, bud. Take a lil' somethin' and get a room or get looked at. It's rainin', bud!"" <br/><br/>In his grogginess he felt the man shove something into his hand- a bit of money, no doubt. This man he traveled with was surely an angel, even though he half-shoved Arcus out of his truck before leaping out, himself. His grogginess was quickly subdued when he felt droplets of water hit his head. <br/><br/>He stared up at the dark clouds, occasionally blinking to get a rogue droplet out of his eyes. <br/><br/>So this was rain. He apparently had experienced it before- based on stories his mother had told him- but he was very young. All said and done, it was a bit of an underwhelming experience, in Arcus' mind. Water falling from the sky- sure, it could be collected, but then again the same could be said about <span class=""bb-i"">most</span> discovered sources of drink. If anything, this inconvenience Arcus more, as he knew well the effect of water and cold on infections. <br/><br/>He did his best to cover himself by holding his large satchel over his head with both hands as he stumbled through the muddy streets of Russel City. The amount of people in his line of sight was almost mesmerizing. He had gotten used to large crowds having practically grown up in the arena, but to have so many people walking <span class=""bb-i"">around</span> you or <span class=""bb-i"">towards</span> you? It was easy to get lost and mind numbed. <br/><br/>Arcus dove into the first place that served alcohol he saw- he had no plans to stay here, and the money the traveler had given him wouldn't be enough for a night's stay, anyway. The drink he ordered was cheap and tasted awful, but at the very least it put his mind at ease. He took a few moments to force himself to relax and not think about <span class=""bb-i"">anything</span>. Perhaps the meeting with Ursa <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> coincidence and the man simply wished to reestablish contact with an old friend. But <span class=""bb-i"">what a place</span> to simply happen upon, Fairbury. True, Arcus sort of <span class=""bb-i"">happened</span> upon it, but he had been drawn to it initially by the caravan that needed another escort. Arcus realized he never even asked just <span class=""bb-i"">how</span> Ursa had even made it into the city. <br/><br/>Regardless, he had surely lost him now. If Ursa really was spying on him for the Forsaken he wouldn't dare follow him into Russel City- it was risky, even for Arcus. He pondered the thought that if it hadn't been raining he wouldn't have seamlessly made it in, himself. <br/><br/>Another drink was enough to shove these thoughts away for the time being. <br/><br/>""'Parently thems Immortals is meetin' in Isolone."" A straggled sentence caught Arcus' attention. <br/><br/>""Who told ya' that?""<br/><br/>""Heard it 'round town. Guess that pretty lil' Missand's been spewin' the rumor all over.""<br/><br/>The conversation between the two men quickly progressed to a different topic and Arcus stopped listening after a while. <span class=""bb-i"">Immortals</span> were gathering? From all over? And in Isolone, no less, the Big Empty? <br/><br/>Maybe it was the alcohol, or maybe Arcus subconsciously felt he <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> to believe in something, but he felt the rumor held some weight. He didn't know who this Missand was nor her credibility with such information, but the fact it was specifically <span class=""bb-i"">Immortals</span> gathering as well as his feelings of needing to stay on the move thanks to Ursa, Arcus decided it was a worthy goal to at least look into. If they turned out to be false, then perhaps Arcus could offer some sort of helpful service in a smaller town- here in Russel City, the trade capital of Dust, he felt overwhelmed just sitting in a bar drinking. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Isolone. What a place to stage a meeting,</span> Arcus thought as he slumped out of the bar, shifting the weight of Brute on his back. Quite a walk, too.<br/><br/>But perhaps Arcus could find more roadside angels.      <br/><br/> </div>"

The amount of electricity that was being channeled into the hollow’s attacks was enough that James could feel the electromagnetic forces.  It wasn't a particularly strong feeling at this distance, but if he stayed long enough it probably would have begun to make him feel physically ill.  Strong electromagnetic fields plus one human brain equals discomfort, as he had learned during his time in Aspin.<br/><br/>He began to notice a change in the air.  It felt heavier, more charged, and full of… something.  James wasn't quite sure about it until he noticed the thick dark clouds gathering over the fight.  Was this a result of the electricity?  Almost as if on cue, a bolt of lightening, quickly followed by thunder flashed between the clouds.  It wouldn't have surprised him, but this was still a fairly uncommon occurrence.  Clouds themselves weren't hard to find, but this sort of overcast was definitely a rare sight.  Still, James knew it was simply a product of the strong electromagnetism and turned his attention back towards the fight.<br/><br/>The fight continued for much longer than James had hoped, and it came to a head when the girl with the bike got snatched out of the air by the hollow and beaten to a pulp.  James had to look away.  From what he could tell, she would have to have been extremely lucky to live through that sort of beating.  The other girl had gotten onto her metal… thing and made a break for it.<br/><br/>As the hollow seemed to stand victorious, James began to notice something.  It looked like the clouds were extending downwards.  No, that wasn’t quite right, there was something falling from them.  After another moment of observing this change in the weather, he felt a drop of the substance hit his head.  Perplexed, he brought a hand up to touch the spot.  This was water… falling from the clouds.  James realized what was happening, but he almost couldn’t believe it.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Is it… raining?”</font> he uttered, near speechless.  Dark overcast, water falling from the sky, lightning and thunder, there was no other explanation.  It was actually raining.  It hadn’t rained in decades.  James got up from his crouch and stared at the wet spot on his hand as more drops of rain began to hit him.  He almost didn’t notice the hollow start to make a panicked retreat towards Russell City.  He looked back towards the black creature and observed in awe as the black shell crumbled away, and the girl who had been driving the now completely destroyed truck collapsed on all fours and threw up.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">Oh gods, what is this?</font>” Ivan muttered, bringing a hand towards his face as the rain began to fall. The man had been fairly quiet over the duration of the fight, almost motionless too as he’d simply been starring in the general direction of the brawl. For him it was hard to do much but pretend to watch, as he had been restricted to looking for empty patches in the clouds of thrown up debris. Though the moment the rain began to fall, the filth caked bundle of rags came to life and he looked about in a perplexed manner which eventually brought him to stand. “<font color=""#a36209"">Gods, I’m melting!</font>” he screamed in panic, a shaky arm held up in front of him as the sudden rainstorm grew more intense. What clean rain fell on him began to run through his clothing, dribbling off his form in brown drops of foul smelling dirt. The rain began soaking Ivan’s outer layer of clothing as it continued to fall, and all those years of neglecting to bathe began to catch up with the still panicking man. <br/><br/>Fearfully he began patting himself down, grasping at various places on his body which to an extent slowly began to calm him down. “<font color=""#a36209"">Oh,</font>” was all he muttered, clutching his wrist and shaking it back and forth like he was confirming it was still there. The water still ran off Ivan in filth saturated drips but his outer layer of caked on dirt was gone and in a few places the liquid dripped off almost clean. “<font color=""#a36209"">Oh, it’s just water,</font>” Ivan then laughed, looking back towards where James sat. Though he looked directly at him, Ivan had to squint and lean closer to be sure he was there- the mud he was now seeing somewhat perplexing in how it appeared. “<font color=""#a36209"">I- I’m sorry,</font>” he then murmured, his voice sounding a little shaken from having believed the rain was dangerous.<br/><br/>____________________________<br/><br/>Vladimira clung to the metal bar as tightly as she could as it hurtled along, taking her away from the fight. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">So you’re running, is that it? Just like you ran from everything else?</span>&lt; She ignored Pandora, pushed her away into a corner of her mind and threw up mental concrete walls. <br/><br/>The feeling utter powerlessness had scared her, she was used to being able to almost disarm entire groups of bandits and kill them with their own weapons, usually a spike to the throat, but Aeshma had been all but unfazed, cutting through steel darts that would’ve shredded a man and almost burning her alive. <br/><br/>She kept her eyes focused forward and didn’t look back or slow down, not when she distantly heard what sounded like a bone crushing impact, not when she heard what sounded like electrified punches, not for anything… except… <br/><br/>A drop of water hit her in the face and brought her back to reality. She lost her grip on the bar of metal and went tumbling, sliding painfully along the sand and rocks. Disoriented she sat up, <br/><br/>What was…? Water falling from the sky? Rain?<br/><br/>Pandora commented idly, &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Yes, rain, brought on by the monster you just ran away from in a blind panic. Y’know, Aeshma, the murderous psycho who’s probably killed that other person. The other person whose name you don’t even know, I might add.</span>&lt;<br/><br/>Vladimira hung her head, simply sitting in the rain for a moment. Standing suddenly, she grabbed the bar of metal and turned around, walking briskly in the direction she’d come. <br/><br/>She’d kill Aeshma if she had to, somehow, but she also needed to see if the other woman was okay. &gt;<span class=""bb-i"">Oh, glad to see you’ve grown a spine.</span>&lt; Gripping the metal bar, she accelerated it in the direction of where the fight had been. <br/>_____________________________________________<br/><br/>James shut his mouth and tilted his head back down once he had his fill of the liquid that descended from the heavens.  As wonderful as this, for all intents and purposes, miracle of nature was, he knew there were other things that needed his attention.  There was a remnant of an unexplainable battle ahead of him, and he wanted to investigate.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Right.  I don’t know about you, Ivan, but I want to find out what just happened,”</font> he said, gesturing towards what was left of the truck.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">Right, right,</font>” Ivan quickly agreed, having been just staring at his hand in confused wonderment. Investigation had been the reason he’d stayed after all, that and the novelty of finding another immortal- for now the amusement over this had past though, and he became much more curious in learning more about what had happened. What he could infer was that things had settled down but he could no longer properly tell if anyone was still around; either they’d gone quiet or left.<br/><br/>James slung his AK onto his back and was about to start towards the remains of the fight, but then another question had popped into his mind.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Ivan, the way you’ve been acting… I don’t want to offend but… are you blind?”</font> he asked as sincerely as possible.  James could tell Ivan had some way of seeing, but something about how he was acting hinted that it was in some way other than his eyes.<br/><br/>The question caught Ivan momentarily off guard, and his pace slowed while his eyes continued to follow James- or at least where he could assume James was from his footprints. “<font color=""#a36209"">Kind of,</font>” was the only response he was willing to give at the moment, Ivan having a question of his own he felt was more important. “<font color=""#a36209"">You said you were ‘good company’. I’m assuming this means you’re immortal but does that mean you’re a mind reader?</font>” Ivan asked, wanting to know what the real answer was since ‘mind reading’ seemed a bit over the top.<br/><br/>James couldn’t help but chuckle a bit.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“In a manner of speaking.  I can pick up on things most people never would, and when I look at someone I can gauge certain things about them pretty easily.  You don’t have any pupils, and while that in and of itself doesn’t mean anything for an immortal, the way your attention didn’t seem to be focused on things you were ‘seeing’ exactly was something of a tell,”</font> James replied.  He picked up the pace, knowing that Ivan was, in fact, following him.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“So, how can you see, then?”</font> James asked.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“You have to have some way of seeing, right?”</font><br/><br/>Upon the mention of what his eyes looked like, Ivan brought a hand to his face out of fear he’d somehow lost his hood. When he learned that wasn’t the case however his gloved hand slowly dragged down his chest until it was at his side again. “<font color=""#a36209"">I can uh- I can see the dust. Dust, dirt, mud. It’s why I panicked when the water came from nowhere, I could see my hand getting cleaner,</font>” Ivan explained, a slight smile cracking underneath the bag on his head. People had guessed he was blind before, or at least assumed he must have needed glasses, but it felt odd for him explaining things the way they were. “<font color=""#a36209"">I remember I could see once, back in my youth- but that was too long ago. I to this day don’t really understand it much but it makes little difference when you spend your life surrounded by desert,</font>” he then continued, stumbling slightly as the two reached the top of a shallow ridge.<br/><br/>Below, Ivan could see the truck he’d heard crash as it’s tires were easy to see, everything else wasn’t as distinguishable however and it left him forced to guess about a lot of what was down there. “<font color=""#a36209"">Is there someone there?</font>” he asked, eyeing a humanoid outline framed by what looked like dirty clothing. “<font color=""#a36209"">A dead someone?</font>” he then asked himself, stepping forward to slide down the muddy ridge towards the battleground. Though his interest at first was solely on the body he saw, Ivan’s attention became drawn to the dozens of invisible scratches and scars all over the ground. Leaning down near one Ivan placed his hand on the nearly swamped ground and through both force and some manipulation of the mud, he pulled forth a jagged and muddied piece of glass. “The hell- that thing cooked the sand,” he announced, proud of his finding as he examined the ghostly shape he held.<br/><br/>James couldn’t stop staring at the body.  He could tell for certain, even from several hundred meters back, that she was no longer alive, but being this close was very different.  It felt foreboding, and although he wasn’t unaccustomed to death, he had…<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Shit.”</font>  He looked away.  Something in the back of his mind told him that this wasn’t good for him.  He shifted his focus towards the trail the other girl had left behind.  He could still see her running towards Russell City, but she was way too far to catch up to.  He would pursue her later.  For now, he went to examine the chunks of black armor that had crumbled away.<br/><br/>He walked over to one, picking it up and examining it carefully.  It wasn’t an artificial armor, it was more like what you see on a bug.  It was almost like an exoskeleton, but it clearly wasn’t connected to her biologically.  At least, not completely.  This was something bordering on the metaphysical; to hold up so well during that fight, yet simply come crumbling apart as soon as it started raining.  It wasn’t even the rain itself; the armor showed no signs of chemical deterioration.  It simply started chipping and shearing off.  The only connection to it’s disintegration that James could think of was that the beast… woman… whatever, had began running off shortly after the rain began to fall.<br/><br/>James noticed something approaching; no, someone, the woman from before.  He looked up and, with the air now being much clearer, noticed with a fair amount of surprise that she had most of her clothes torn off.  He almost physically took a step back as she drew closer. <br/><br/>Vladimira sped along the muddy ground, slowing down as she neared the scene of the fight. She didn’t see Aeshma’s form anywhere, or that of the other woman. She did see what looked like two people -regular humans-, and her eyes narrowed, where had they come from?<br/><br/>A second afterwards and she became uncomfortably conscious of her lack of clothing and slowed to an abrupt halt, watching them with apprehension. She normally would’ve dragged her clothing to herself, but neither her shirt nor her cloak had anything for her to pull on from this distance, and with their charred condition she wasn’t sure they’d survive regardless. Scowling, she started walking forward, metal bar reshaping itself around her fist “Who are you?! The fuck do you want?!”<br/><br/>James was… almost startled at the woman’s abrupt introduction, and her lack of clothing threw him off to the point of discombobulation.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Ummm… I- we… saw the fight.  I wasn’t really sure…”</font>  James became all too aware of the woman’s nakedness and turned himself around.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Let’s just say we were curious.  I don’t know about Ivan, but I’ve certainly never seen an immortal turn into a hollow, and then back again.”</font><br/><br/>He grew suspicious as he remembered how her fists had seemed to turn into the armor he saw earlier.  Hell, for that matter, they still were.  He inched his hand towards his CZ.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Furthermore, that black stuff; why did it grow on your hands?”</font> he asked, strongly but earnestly. Meanwhile Ivan had only turned his head, still holding the smooth spike of glass in his hand as he watched a barely visible outline of a person approach. Whoever it was was confronting James at the moment, and he seemed to be handling it, though Ivan continued to watch just in case.<br/><br/>Vladimira stopped as he responded. So they weren’t bandits or something, or at least, probably weren’t bandits. “Простите…” she muttered, edging her way over to her clothing, or what was left of it at least. “As for the ‘Immortal turning into a hollow’ part, I’m honestly not sure what that was, but it wasn’t a Hollow. It’s… I don’t know what happened. The black stuff either, I don’t know.” <br/><br/>She grabbed her shirt, sighing as it crumbled into ash. Rummaging around in her rucksack she dragged out another shirt and hastily tugged it on, the plates of metal on her chest that’d likely saved her life more than once in the past few minutes… “Temper’s been ruined, гавно...” She sighed, folding the metal in her hands and stuffing it into the rucksack with everything else. At least her weapons seemed to be fine. And that rifle she remembered pulling off the truck, which was all well and good, but…<br/><br/>She stood and looked around before her gaze alighted on Evelina’s body, and her face darkened. “So she’s dead.”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">I haven’t checked yet, but I think so,</font>” Ivan replied, his voice a little choked since he had to speak up to be heard clearly.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“She is.  I can tell,”</font> James interjected, more forcefully than intended.  He let out a sigh before adding, <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I’m sorry, if you knew her.”</font><br/><br/>“I didn’t.” She grumbled darkly, walking slowly over to Evelina’s body, “But somebody probably does.”<br/><br/>James took his hand from his holster, knowing this woman probably wasn’t a threat, and also partially out of guilt of incriminating her, even if unintentionally.  He tried thinking of something to say, but it was hard to come up with something that wouldn’t sound like a blatant misdirection away from the woman’s body.  It would be insensitive to bring anything else up at the time.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">I’ve buried people before; it wouldn’t take too long. If she was out here on her own one can expect to die,</font>” Ivan suggested, having transitioned into that same sitting position as before: legs crossed and hands folded neatly in his lap. “<font color=""#a36209"">If she has anything valuable we can sell it. Not like she needs it,</font>” he then continued, his vision lost for a moment as he tried to follow the splash of the newcomer's footprints as she approached the corpse.<br/><br/>Vladimira shook her head, “No, she knew someone, not sure who, but I’ve got this feeling in my gut that just burying her, whoever she is, in a shallow grave in a bunch of sand wouldn’t be right.” She shrugged, “I’m going to take her back to Russell, hard enough to lose someone, even worse if there’s no body.”<br/><br/>She turned, walking back towards Ivan and James, “However,” she paused for a moment, eyeing the two, “who you are and why you happened to be watching that… encounter, I’d like to know.” <br/><br/>Ivan’s head rocked to one side slightly, muttering a short, “<font color=""#a36209"">Fair question,</font>” as he glanced towards James for a moment. Afterwards he turned back to the woman and nodded, uncrossing his legs to allow himself to stand. “<font color=""#a36209"">I personally just happened to be walking by. I heard the commotion and once I recognized it had something to do with a hollow I was going to try stepping in to help. Then the situation escalated and I decided it would be smart to not interfere and be on my way. I bumped into this young man, and he managed to pique my curiosity which resulted in me wanting to investigate things with him. Simple really,</font>” Ivan leisurely explained, finished standing up and now having to look down towards where he believed the stranger’s face was.<br/><br/>James folded his arms and shifted his gaze towards Russell City.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I was on my way there to look for a job.  Saw the commotion from some miles away and came running.  I thought you and… her, were about to rob the other woman…”</font>  he trailed off, gazing intently towards the city in the distance.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“She made for Russell City.  I’m going to track her down once I get there.  My job security just became secondary, I think I should know what this black armor shit means for us,”</font> he said, unfolding his arms. At the mention of an ‘us’ Ivan’s head turned briefly towards James, but whatever he was thinking was dismissed quickly by an amused snort and he returned his attention to Vladimira.<br/><br/>Vladimira nodded, “Probably not a bad idea. Keep an eye out though, to put it mildly, shit’s going down over there. So I’d keep your guard up.” <br/><br/>She turned back around, siphoning metal off what remained of the truck and forming it into a sled of sorts, wiping sweat from her forehead as she did so. She walked over and grabbed Evelina’s body, propping it onto the makeshift sled/stretcher to the best of her abilities, and securing her with several bands of steel. “Well, now that’s done.” She muttered, walking back to the truck to investigate the sizeable rifle she remembered pulling off of it.<br/><br/>And what a sizeable rifle indeed.<br/><br/>“How… is this… intact.” She muttered. She walked slightly closer, eyes wide. “A PTRS-41. How is this even…” She trailed off, “Okay, I’ve got to take this with me.”<br/><br/>As the… immense rifle came out, James couldn’t help but be impressed.  Not by how effortlessly she seemed to pull it out, not by it’s size compared to her, but by the rifle itself.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“That’s… Russian,”</font> he managed to croak.  14.5x114mm anti-materiel rifle, used during both of the Great Wars several centuries ago.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Damn.”</font>  James was practically starstruck.  He wasn’t partial to big guns, but this… this was a thing of beauty.<br/><br/>He managed to shake himself from his stupor long enough to remember there were things to be done.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Right.  Well, since you’re heading to Russell City, can you make room on that sled of yours?  Ivan can move sand to move faster, but I’ve got my legs and that’s pretty much it.”</font><br/><br/>Vladimira shook her head to clear it. She could drool later. “I could, don’t know how much more is left in that truck though, or how much I’ve got ‘till I pass out. How much do you weigh? I’ve still got to carry this,” she gestured at her newest acquisition, “And my own stuff.”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">Are we all traveling together now, is that it?</font>” Ivan asked, his question meant to be rhetorical as he continued speaking after a short pause. “<font color=""#a36209"">I think it might be worth mentioning then that I’m pretty sure there was a bike somewhere around here. I heard it still running when the truck crashed,</font>” he continued to explain in an amused tone, looking around in an attempt to find the vehicle but missed it as his head swiveled back and forth.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Bike?”</font> James asked.  He was right though, James could hear an engine idling.  He followed the sound, spotting the bike a few meters away, tipped over from the chaos of the fight.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Hmmm, right then,”</font> he said, walking over to it to inspect it.  The handlebars seemed to have been bent slightly, but that was the only visible damage he could see.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“It still works.  Ivan, you want a lift?”</font> James asked, pulling it back upright.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">I don’t like engines,</font>” Ivan replied quite quickly, the slightest hint of hostility in his words. “<font color=""#a36209"">I mean, it’s a bike too- I don’t want to weigh it down since I’m soaking wet. I’ll be fine,</font>” he then continued, correcting himself and sounding apologetic in tone.<br/><br/>“So, it seems like we’re all set then.” Vladimira observed. “Give me a moment and I guess we’ll head for Russell?”<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Sounds like a plan to me,”</font> James replied.<br/><br/>Ivan chuckled slightly, his expression of joy cut short by a rasped sounding cough. “<font color=""#a36209"">Anywhere dry sounds nice, honestly. I’ll follow the two of you,</font>” he explained, clearing his throat afterwards.<br/><br/>Vladimira shrugged, walking over to her rucksack and gear and rummaging around, pulling out a wad of plastic bags. “Knew I’d have a use for these some day.” she muttered as she crammed her cold, wet, and burnt clothing into some of the bags before stuffing them back into the rucksack. She grabbed her gun belt and rifle, slipping the belt on and the strap of the rifle over her shoulder.<br/><br/>“Now how to secure this… magnificent find.” She grumbled, shrugging eventually and placing the rifle on the makeshift sled/stretcher as well, pulling a piece of metal or two over it to hold it in place.<br/><br/>“Think we’re set, I suppose?” She said to the other two.<br/><br/>James had pulled the bike alongside the others and nodded towards the woman.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Wait, I don’t think we ever got your name, nor you ours.”</font><br/><br/>“Well, you go first if that’s the case.” Vladimira replied, stepping behind her makeshift transport.<br/><br/>James scoffed, somewhat amused by her apprehension.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“James,”</font> he said, simply.<br/><br/>“Vladimira, Vladimira Kovalik.” She said simply, shrugging, “And you, big guy?”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">Ivan,</font>” he replied, sounding a lot more cheerful all of a sudden.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Translations &amp; Pronunciations"" type=""button"">Translations &amp; Pronunciations [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Простите…Prastíte… Sorry…<br/>Гавно... gavno... shit</div></div></div>"

Mystification tinged Lucania's eyes, a hand came to cover her mouth as she took in the painting, ""What is it that I'm looking at here?""<br/><br/>""Confusion, perhaps?"" The woman next to her, a small woman dressed in all black, spoke with a sultry French accent. She was an attendant, of sorts... she was the matron of this lobby area of The Underground... a <span class=""bb-i"">'specialty fashion superette'</span> Lucy had recommended-- Apparently, if you had the ammo, and you wanted to become a different person, these were the experts. How Lucy had contacts here, Lucania figured, was information best left private.<br/><br/>""Confusion?"" Her eyes grew murkier by the second. The woman in black wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">wrong,</span> Lucania certainly was confused. <br/><br/>Christ, the entire way The Underground operated confused her! It was raining outside! She wanted professional help transforming her appearance to make leaving Russel easier-- and then it starts raining! She wasn't sure what was going on! Leoluca was nowhere to be found, Lucy would be headed to Serenity within the hour, her Windcaller had been abducted as soon as the <span class=""bb-i"">fashionistas</span> of the establishment saw his state of dress... she was alone, and confused in the lobby of an establishment she had been informed would serve her purposes. SO far, she had been met with... perplexing rhetoric. <br/><br/>She supposed the painting was no exception.<br/><br/>""Confusion is good, Mademoiselle Castalia.""<br/><br/>""Is it?"" Pulling attention away from the seemingly random, yet thoughtfully formed shapes of vibrant color, Lucania turned to the woman in black, ""I'm not sure it's either good or bad.""<br/><br/>""It is what you feel, no?""<br/><br/>""I suppose so.""<br/><br/>""Why?""<br/><br/>""Why do I feel that confusion isn't inherently good, or why am I confused?""<br/><br/>""Why are you confused, Mademoiselle Castalia?""<br/><br/>""You are aware that water is falling from the sky, miss...?""<br/><br/>""Somme--""<br/><br/>Something clicked in Lucania's mind, ""Oh! Like the battle?""<br/><br/>""Oui.""<br/><br/>A smirk replaced the contemplation on Lucania's face, ""So, Miss Somme, is that the pseudonym you give everyone?""<br/><br/>""No..."" She chuckled, taking a moment to light herself a cigarette, ""Such tests are reserved only for my most illustrious subjects.""<br/><br/>Several bits of that sentence stuck out to Lucania immediately-- that she was being tested was perhaps the most disconcerting bit, but there was also the fact that apparently, at least to this woman, criminal heiresses were considered 'illustrious.' Lucania couldn't tell if she felt honored or not... ""Subjects?"" Despite her confusion's gradual transformation into frustration, she found herself enthralled--<br/><br/>""Oui. You are my subject, Mademoiselle Castalia.""<br/><br/>""Subject...?"" Lucania parroted the woman's voice, ""Like, Gaen experiment subject?""<br/><br/>""Mmmm..."" The french woman muttered to herself, ""Bright... not horribly good at deduction...""<br/><br/>""I'm sorry?""<br/><br/>""My name."" <br/><br/>""Somme?""<br/><br/>""You already determined that wasn't my name, no?""<br/><br/>""I suppose, but then--""<br/><br/>""How did you determine that I was giving you a false name?""<br/><br/>""You're... French?"" Lucania shrugged, ""And the Battle of the Somme was fought in France?""<br/><br/>""Hmm..."" The woman blew out a stream of smoke, ""And how did you know about the battle?""<br/><br/>Lucania chuckled, ""I must have read about it somewhere.""<br/><br/>The woman sucked in air through her teeth, before tossing away the cigarette and slapping Lucania. Pain spread across her face fast, her eyes went wide as hands immediately shot up to apply pressure to the area of contact-- it was a light slap-- but it was an alien sensation to Lucania, combined with the surprise of the blow, the stinging pain persisted.<br/><br/>""What the hell, lady!?"" There was a controlled edge to her voice.<br/><br/>""My subjects do not rely on luck!"" Was the French woman's reply, her eyes held the fury of some vengeful god and her voice had the quality of an angry mother. Lucania couldn't help but feel a distinct childlike fear, ""It is no wonder you failed to see past the lies of your companion.""<br/><br/>Lucania tilted her head, ""Wait, what?""<br/><br/>""The man you were with."" The woman answered, lighting herself another fashion cigarette, ""He goes by a false name.""<br/><br/>""How do you know?""<br/><br/>For her query, Lucania was rewarded with another slap across the face.<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">This is my <span class=""bb-b"">craft</span>! My <span class=""bb-b"">ART</span>! You <span class=""bb-b"">foolish</span> child! You <span class=""bb-b"">dare</span> question my expertise!?</span>""<br/><br/>""No!"" Her hands left her reddened cheek to clasp together as she did something of a bow before the woman, ""No, no, no! Never!"" Lucania rose, ""It's just... I didn't know, is all!""<br/><br/>""How could you?"" She took a drag, ""You see the world as you wish it, not as it is.""<br/><br/>""I'm..."" More confusion, ""...sorry?""<br/><br/>""Don't be!"" The French woman chuckled, ""You'll make a perfect canvas!""<br/><br/>""Canvas? I thought I was a subject?""<br/><br/>""You were, now you will be my canvas-- I will create you into something..."" The woman vouged, ""Even more <span class=""bb-i"">illustrious</span>!""<br/><br/>""Like..."" Lucania's eyes ventured again to the painting, ""...that?""<br/><br/>""Exactly!"" The woman took a drag, ""Do you know what this piece is called?""<br/><br/>""No, ma'am.""<br/><br/>""Oh, I think you'll find it's very fitting for what you need!""<br/><br/>""Interesting.""<br/><br/>""It's an Old World piece, titled '<span class=""bb-i"">Commitment to a New Idea</span>,'""<br/><br/>History repeats itself. A hand came to cover Lucania's mouth as she took in the painting, colors striking even more vivid as her life under one name would soon give way to a newer one-- even if only temporarily.<br/><br/>Lucania tilted her head, eyes gleaming golden, ""How very post-modernist.""<br/><br/>""Oui! Shall we go get you changed Mademoiselle Castalia?""<br/><br/>Matching her voice, Lucania replied, ""Oui, Mademoiselle Somme.</div>"
161,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-05-02 17:36:00,TheMadAsshatter,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Shortly after passing through the fringes of Russell City, James felt the motorcycle begin to sputter.  Odds are there wasn’t much fuel left.  His suspicions were confirmed moments later, when the motorcycle let loose a couple of violent coughs before the engine stalled.  No matter; it had made it to the city, and that was as far as it needed to go.  James pulled the bike over to the side of the street, slowing it to a halt before putting the kickstand down and dismounting.  He had seen the woman from before walking this street while they were approaching before making a turn, either at the next intersection or the one after that.  He’d have to try to trace her steps from there.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Alright, since this was hers I’ll leave it with you, Vladimira.  It only seems fitting.”</font> he said.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I’m going to follow that woman.  Not to sound rude, but I would prefer to do this without interference.  We can all regroup later,”</font> he said, heading off into the direction he suspected the white-haired woman had gone.  It was definitely hard to tell for sure where she had headed, but he wasn’t getting anywhere standing around thinking about it.  At that thought, he ducked into an alleyway, keeping his eyes peeled for the immortal.<br/><br/>It occurred to him that it might not be possible to regroup with Ivan and Vladimira immediately, so he began thinking of a way he could get word to them.  A bulletin board, perhaps?  Or some place he could leave a note.  That would have to work.  He tried to focus his hearing on any footsteps he heard, and while it told him where people were, he didn’t know whose to track down.  Still, it gave him an idea, and he figured the woman would be in a hurry.  He tried to narrow it down based on that criteria.  He paused and took a breath, closing his eyes and channeling his hearing.<br/><br/>After a moment, he got it narrowed down to four people within a hundred meters.  No, three, one just entered a building somewhere behind him.  He made a mental note of the location before setting after the other three, starting with the nearest.  He turned right, following the sound through the muddy street.  The rain made it difficult to get an exact location, but he had a rough idea, and that was good enough.  After a moment of walking, he spotted the person in question.  One of the winged guards.  Figures; probably just got called in to something.<br/><br/>He got lucky though, as the second person was heading towards him.  He looked to his left, seeing the man, another one of the guards.  The guard caught a brief glimpse of James, but kept moving past him.  James supposed they were searching for someone.  Still, he wasted no time in locking onto the last person and turned around.  He broke into a run, realizing they were moving away from him.  It didn’t take too long to catch up to them, just some guy, possibly running late for something.  That left only the one that went into the building a few blocks back.<br/><br/>James retraced his steps, heading back to the area in which he heard the person earlier.  It seemed to be a housing complex.  He could hear a pair talking in one of them; two women.  He propped himself against the outer wall of the complex, trying to look as casual as possible while he did a little eavesdropping.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”Listen.. Alex.. I haven't heard-”</span> began one of them.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”I'm about to change your life Missand,”</span> the other interjected.  Odd way to start a conversation, and while that alone would have only made him suspicious, what she said next confirmed what he thought.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”I solved the mystery. Tell everybody you know, the Immortals are gathering at Isolone.”</span>  Well, while that could have simply been a coincidence, it was still damning enough that even if this weren’t the woman from before, she still knew something.  He pushed himself away from the wall as the conversation continued.  He had to take some time to process what they were saying.  He still couldn’t say for sure what was happening, but it was definitely something big.<br/><br/>He heard the woman turning the door handle and moved himself around the corner of the building.  She closed the door and began heading in the direction opposite him.  He turned his head around the corner, getting a good look at the woman.  There was no doubt, she was the one whom only an hour before had taken on the form of a hollow.  Now that he was this close, he couldn’t help but find her a bit attractive.  Still, that was secondary; she was still up to something.  He was about to continue his pursuit when he heard footsteps behind him.<br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">“You seem lost.”</font> said a gruff voice.  He turned his head around, coming face to face with the Wings from before.  Figures.  Anyone would have looked suspicious, trying to be as stealthy as James was.  He was ashamed he hadn’t heard them approach, but he chocked it up to him still processing what was said.  <font color=""#92278f"">“Can we help you find something?”</font> the other said, a hint of malice in his voice.  James had to think of something.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well…”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">“Well… What?”</font> the leader spat out harshly.  <font color=""#9e0039"">“Spit it out, kid!”</font> he barked.  This wasn’t going well.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Did I do something wrong?”</font> James asked, managing to retain his calm demeanor.<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f"">“Well, that depends,”</font> the second one said.  <font color=""#92278f"">“What were you doing with those two immortals who entered the city a few minutes ago?”</font>  James could tell they were talking about Ivan and Vladimira.  Still, what did that have to do with anything?<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“I don’t really see why that matters, I mean-”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">“Take off those goggles,”</font> the leader said.  No socio-political bent here; nope, none at all.  James narrowed his eyes, looking over their weaponry.  They both seemed to have the same equipment; radio, baton, handcuffs, etc.  The biggest difference was that the leader carried an actual firearm while the other only had a taser.  Still deadly in the right, or wrong hands.<br/><br/>Reluctantly, James reached towards his goggles, closing his eyes before pulling them off of his head.  Usually he would be identifiable as an Immortal immediately, but the heavy overcast and rain made seeing through the tinted eyepieces much more difficult.  He would use that to his advantage in the next few seconds.  He opened his eyes and kept the goggles held over his head.  Time began to slow as he noticed the reaction on their faces; a mix of surprise, apprehension, and most importantly, newfound hostility.<br/><br/>Without missing a beat, James threw the goggles at the second man’s face whilst simultaneously reaching for his CZ.  He had it out of it’s holster and pointed at the leader in under a second; neither of them having an opportunity to even get their hands on their weapons.  The leader stood frozen while the second, still startled by the diversion, fumbled for his taser.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Don’t do anything rash, stupid!”</font> James said to the second.  He looked up at James, fear spreading across his face.  He paused, hand just on the grip of the taser.  As the two eased their hands upwards, time returned to normal speed for James.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Okay, now listen up you two.  I don’t know what your beef is with me, but I can’t take any risks right now.  Don’t do anything stupid and you’ll live,”</font> he said, as forcefully as he could manage.  He’d dealt with criminals before, but never law enforcement.  It definitely filled James with some amount of nervousness as he made his demands.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“You,”</font> he said, gesturing towards the one behind the leader.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Cuff this guy,”</font> he said.  He hesitated for a moment, but complied fairly quickly.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Turn around,”</font> James said as the leader was finished being restrained.  James grabbed for his cuffs, making sure never to take his gun off of him, then restrained him as well.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Alright, now I gotta do one last thing, and don’t take this personally,”</font> he said, bringing his hand back and swiftly pistol-whipping the two of them.<br/><br/>They collapsed to the ground effortlessly.  James knew they would either come to or be found eventually, but hopefully not for a while.  He holstered his handgun and went to pick up his goggles, now soaked in mud.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Great,”</font> he said, trying to clean them off with his jacket.  It got some of the crap off, but he knew the goggles were practically useless for the meantime.  He put them back over his head, hanging them around his neck.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“So, Isolone then,”</font> James thought aloud, pulling the hood over his head both as protection from the rain, and to help shade his eyes.  It wasn’t exactly necessary for him to pursue the woman through the city anymore, seeing as he knew where she was going.  He figured he’d begin looking for a way to let Ivan and Vladimira know, and maybe grab a bite to eat.  He hadn’t eaten since morning.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>After a quick stop at a sandwich stand, James decided to head to a bar he had heard about.  The Bitch’s Brew.  It seemed to be a happening sort of place; it was possible Ivan and Vladimira would head that way.  He kept his eyes open for some means of leaving a message for Ivan and Vladimira, though he figured if all else failed he could simply leave the note with someone and hope they saw them.  Not like they would be too difficult to identify.<br/><br/>James found himself at the entryway to the bar and let himself in.  It was still fairly early in the afternoon, so it wasn’t like it was busy at this time.  He found his way straight to the barkeep, taking out the note preemptively.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Hey, can I ask you something real quick?”</font> he asked.<br/><br/>“Sure, what’cha need?” he replied, cleaning out a glass.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Two things.  First of all, where would you say is the most popular place here for Immortals?”</font><br/><br/>The bartender laughed a bit at that.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, I’d say you found it.  Immortals come here all the time.  Why do you ask?”</font><br/><br/>James paused to look around.  Indeed it did seem like there was a high ratio of immortals here as opposed to normals.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well then, I guess that brings me to my second question.  Can I leave a note here?  I need to get going, but I want a couple of people to know where I’m headed too.”</font><br/><br/>“Well, this <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> a business.  We can’t just do stuff for free,” he replied, a hint of sarcasm in his voice.  “Tell you what.  Buy a drink, and I’ll keep that note for you.  Sound fair?”<br/><br/>James couldn’t help but be a bit annoyed, but to be fair, he did feel like having a drink.  After the things that have been going on today, he figured he could use something to cheer him up a bit.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Yeah, sure,”</font> he replied.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Get me something smooth.  I don’t really care what, I’m not big on drinks,”</font> he said.<br/><br/>“Comin’ right up,” the bartender said.  James fished out a few of his shoddy 9mm rounds as payment for the drink and set them on the bar, along with the note.  “There ya go,” the bartender said, setting a clear drink on the table.  James took a sip from the glass, letting the lightly burning liquid slide down his throat.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Not bad,”</font> James said.<br/><br/>“So, who am I saving this for?” the bartender asked, gesturing to the note.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Oh, right,”</font> James said, setting the glass on the bar.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“One of them is named Ivan.  He’s a big dude, wears pretty shoddy looking clothes, along with a rag on his head.  You probably can’t really see his eyes, but he’s an immortal.  The other is Vladimira.  Also an immortal.  Glowing red eyes, pulsating, no pupils.  Hard to miss,”</font> he said, slugging the rest of the drink.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Now, thank you for your time, and the drink, but I’ve got to get going.”</font><br/><br/>At that, James hopped off the stool and headed off to find a vehicle.  He could probably manage to buy a bike or something.  Maybe not a good one, but as long as it worked and was relatively quick, he would make do.  He also took a moment to take his undershirt and properly wipe off his goggles in the rain.  It didn’t take too long to find a shop, and after some negotiations, James managed to get his hands on a bike, complete with a full tank of gas.  Of course, he exhausted all of his money, and a few more 9mm bullets, but he could recoup those at a later date.  Wasting no time, he mounted the bike and sped off towards Isolone.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>The ride took awhile, but after a few hours James could see the outskirts of Isolone.  He had briefly seen a truck that he believed to be the woman’s.  Alex, if he recalled the conversation he heard correctly.  If he was right, he had passed her roughly an hour ago.  That would put her fifteen minutes behind him, give or take a few.  It would give him time to scope out the town before she arrived.  If she was a threat, he needed a tactical advantage.<br/><br/>As he got closer, he realized that would be easier said than done.  The buildings in the town seemed destroyed; either burned down or just collapsed.  What the hell happened here?  As he drew nearer he could make out more details.  Debris was laying all around the street, coupled with all sorts of carnage.  Corpses lay sprawled in the street and various buildings; some mutilated beyond recognition, some flayed, some missing limbs.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Holy shit,”</font> James muttered.  He shut off the motorcycle so as to not make any noise and coasted the motorcycle as far as it would go.  It stopped a couple hundred meters from what could be construed as the town limits.  He put the kickstand down and took his AK off of his back, pulling the bolt back slightly to make sure it was loaded.  Once he confirmed a bullet was in the chamber, he put the rifle to his shoulder, keeping it lowered as he entered Isolone.<br/><br/>He proceeded with more caution than he usually would.  The atmosphere of this whole town was beyond oppressive, and he almost hesitated to even enter it.  What exactly happened here?  He kept his eyes peeled for any movement, but even as he passed the first buildings, nothing stirred.  It stayed that way as he proceeded down the lone road leading through the town and towards what looked like a post office.  It was damaged, but it fared better than a lot of the buildings, a solid chunk of one side being collapsed.  James continued scanning the area, but he doubted anyone or anything was still here.  They were likely either dead or got the fuck out.<br/><br/>He figured if there was anyone left they’d have seen him by now.  That settled it; the town was completely destroyed, not a native soul left.  James let out a sigh and put the rifle back on his back, jogging to the bike to bring it into the ghost town.  He pushed the bike up the road, looking for a good place to put it.  There was one section between a pair of houses where the roof had collapsed between them, leaving a crevice to conceal the bike.  He left it there, then posted himself at the edge of the town, waiting for this Alex person to arrive.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Hardened rubber tires tore across the watery, mud laden streets of Russell City, carrying Alex away from the only city she’d ever truly considered home. She had built a pretty good life for herself there. She had been an excellent scavenger, making more than a meager living as so many others did. She was set up, and she kept herself hidden fairly well despite the extreme mutative nature of her eyes. She had even had a few relationships here and there..<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""red"">”Cassie… what is this?”</font> A sleepy Alex asked, tentatively poking a bread like mass on her plate. A small dish of amber colored syrup sat next to it.<br/><font color=""pink"">”They’re called pancakes silly,”</font> Cassie giggled lightly as she looped her arms around Alex’s neck and nuzzle her face against her affectionately. <font color=""pink"">”Listen, I have work to do, I’m meeting a Wing today, wants some information on a drug dealer or something.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”A drug dealer?”</font> Alex repeated, using her fork to slice off a piece of the quivering meal. Cassie reached over her and poured the syrup onto Alex’s breakfast.<br/><br/><font color=""pink"">”Yea, small fish trying to go big or something, calls himself Jackson or something.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”You sure this isn’t going to get you killed someday soon?”</font> Alex asked with her mouth full of the gooey pancakes, <font color=""red"">”Sweet jesus these are delicious!”</font><br/><br/>Cassie kissed Alex’s cheek, stifling her amusement, <font color=""pink"">”Someday, but less likely than you venturing out into the wastes looking for toasters,”</font> She teased.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Hpmfgh!”</font> Alex retorted. Cassie giggled as Alex forcefully swallowed the bite she had taken, <font color=""red"">”Hey! I do not.. though speaking of ventures..”</font> She said, letting the thought hang as she twirled her fork slowly in the air, as if to emphasise her aloofness.<br/><br/><font color=""pink"">”Nothing yet, I’ll keep my ears open though. Now listen, I really gotta go,”</font> Cassie said, locating her pants and moving across the room to slip them on. <font color=""pink"">”I’ll come by next week, cool? I gotta go to Harlem for bit after this Wing business.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Alright, I’ll leave the key in the usual place… but I expect more of these pancakes!”</font> Alex turned halfway in her chair, smiling as Cassie finished dressing.<br/><br/><font color=""pink"">”Fine, but you’ll have to dance for me again,”</font> She said coyly, winking at Alex.<br/><br/>Alex went slightly red in the face at this, <font color=""red"">”Deal, See you then.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""pink"">”Toodles,”</font> Cassie said, wiggling her fingers.</span><br/><br/>Alex sniffled, wiping away the glistening memory from the corner of her eye. She turned and looked back out the window, watching the weather reflect her current mood. Appropriate, since she had a hand in causing it, though indirectly. It was a somber kind of mood, one that made her deeply sad. She had such a good life in Russel, even with the day to day dangers of living in Dust. And she had thrown it all away for what?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">~”A mental breakdown.”~</span> her mind echoed, seemingly amused. She wasn’t wrong though. She had been so obsessed with this rumor of others like her gathering. The thought that others would band together to fight the growing oppression and civil unrest against Immortals made her feel much less alone than she felt. Even with her lovers, and her very few friends, she had always felt alone. She had felt alone since she walked out of that god forsaken camp all those years ago. She still felt the scars, the tightness of them on her back. Sometimes when she dreamt she could still feel them burning, she’d wake up covered in her own blood. In the end, she just woke up profusely sweaty, and with a heart that seemed ready to explode.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""orange"">”You’re such a good girl Alexi, have the others been teaching you?”</font> Greya purred, running her fingers through her favorite pet’s hair.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Yes mistress,”</font> Alex replied meekly.<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">”It’ll be such a shame when I have to left you go.. but Ardall said buyers are always willing to pay high-In gold- for girls like you,”</font> Greya said softly, it almost sounded as if she truly felt sorrow.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I will miss you dearly Mistress,”</font> Alex cooed, looking at Greya with a set of sad, doe-eyes. Alex, at the time, had meant it too. Her heart panged with anxiety with the thought of being separated from her master, yet she knew that she would bring her master such joy as Alex had never brought her before. Her master loved money, that much was apparent from the gold jewelry she adorned herself with. Alex was her favorite, and had piercing to reflect her master’s affection.<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">”Come now, show me what a good girl you’ve become my little Alexi-”</font></span><br/><br/>Alex cringed from the memory, only brought out from it as a splattering of mud slathered one side of the small car she was in, albeit thinly. A bike zipped past, obviously heading somewhere in a hurry. No, rather, Alex was traveling slowly. She turned and looked, watching the landscape pass by slowly. The rain had stopped, this far from Russel, but mud was still present, and the sky was still overcast. It seemed the storm had been larger than she had first expected, though it was much thinner out here. It must have been moving with her. Which means she must be going really slow.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”The fuck am I paying you for? I could have walked there by now!”</font> Alex said, her anger spiking immediately to dangerous levels. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. Meanwhile the driver looked back at her, a bit wide eyed, before he smiled a toothy grin and tilted his hand in response. A moment later and the tires spun out long columns of mud as he floored the gas pedal. Alex was rocked back into the uncomfortable seat, which didn’t help her attempts at trying to keep from literally disintegrating the driver.<br/><br/><font color=""darkred""><span class=""bb-b"">”He’s weak… easy.. it would be so-”</span></font> A voice purred hungrily from within her head.<br/><br/>Alex squeezed her eyes shut, blocking out Aeshma’s influence on her. <font color=""red"">”I’m not the angry one.. he’s the angry one.. I’m not angry..”</font> She whispered to herself, focusing on the words. It took longer than she would have liked, but eventually she could feel Aeshma recede, and with him the boiling rage that she felt. On one hand she was glad she knew about him, and what he could do. Yet, more sorrow burrowed its way into her as she looked back on what she and done. She had put more blood on her hands, she had attacked Vladimira… she had killed.<br/><br/>She shook her head again, looking back out the window. The large mesa was plainly in view, and quite sizable. She had heard many things about Isolone, but had never actually found a reason to go there. She wasn’t even sure why she had chosen it as her staging area.<br/><br/><font color=""darkred""><span class=""bb-b"">”Defensible.. High ground.. the best corner to back yourself into..”</span></font> Aeshma hummed inside her head. She squeezed her eyes shut once more, forcing herself to block him out, <span class=""bb-i"">Again</span>. The rest of her ride was spent in remembrance of all the atrocities she had committed. She tried to accept them, but she was also greatly pained by her actions. She used these negative, painful memories as reminders of why she had to change, why she could no longer be the meek little scavenger girl who kept to herself, always thoughtful or amused. She had to be strong, stronger than Aeshma, she had to be in control. She had to become a leader, she couldn’t show weakness, not anymore.<br/><br/>She focused her entire will and being on staying in control, refusing to let Aeshma take that from her. Resisting the poisonous, rage fueled influence he had on her. Ignoring his quips, his remarks, and most difficult of all… his hunger. She hummed softly as she sat there, remembering the painful things she had done.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">”I close my eyes only for a moment, and the moment's gone,”</span></font></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">”All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity...”</span></font></div><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>By the time Alex’s ride traversed the steep grade up into The Big Empty, dusk was quickly approaching. She wasn’t quite sure was she was expecting, but she felt a surprising lack of nervousness, or anxiety. For once in the past, she didn’t even know how long, she felt at peace, for the most part. The car rumbled across the rocky dirt road, giving Alex the brief thought if anybody had ever bothered to smooth it out. <br/><br/>Out the window the landscape was pretty droll in her opinion, lots of rocks and boulders. Little ones, big ones, and a few that even looked square. Suddenly she no longer wondered why Isolone wasn’t talked about more often, other than it’s unique position it looked like a pretty boring place. Though, it looked pretty safe in her opinion. There were only two real ways in, and each of those points ended within a mile of each other. <br/><br/>It took about another forty minutes before she realized why nobody talked about Isolone often. Even through the quickly setting veil of pitch black night, it was apparent what had happened her. The amount of death and destruction present made her want to turn around and forget the place. It reminded her too much of what she had done. Every other body was somebody she knew, a mirage created just to make her feel guilty. Yet, their dead, silent faces helped her steel herself as she opened the door and exited the car.<br/><br/>Despite all of the devastation, there was something mildly surprising. Or rather, someone. At the edge of the town a man stood, facing her direction. It looked as if he had been waiting for someone, or perhaps something? He hadn’t even moved when she arrived. <font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">”Is he waiting for me?”</span></font> She thought idly to herself as the driver stepped out to open the trunk of his vehicle. Alex ignored the man for the moment, it was apparent that he was waiting, and she was still far enough that she could blast him if he tried anything.<br/><br/>Half a minute later and Alex was left standing in the middle of nowhere with two duffel bags, her backpack, and her two weapons. Both of which she hadn’t even felt the need to use in such a long time… she figured perhaps now it was time to be a bit more reserved with her powers. She had been reckless before, careless even, and had very nearly killed herself that night in the abandoned housing complex with…<br/><br/>She shook that thought from her head, <font color=""red"">”What’s your deal stranger?”</font> Alex called out warily, walking forward slowly. Normally she would be on edge, nearly bursting with adrenaline, ready to fight. Today, she held both of her hands up in a sign of peace as she advanced. As she got a little closer she started to make out the man’s appearance from that of a mysterious, manly silhouette, to that of a gruff looking young man.<br/><br/>He didn’t seem very threatening, at least at first glance. He came off kind of rugged to her actually; Dressed in fairly average travelling clothing. That is, mixed and matched to wasteland perfection. A dark hoodie, most likely a darker shade of gray, poked out from beneath an almost equally dark green jacket, though the style looked a bit more like something a soldier would wear. That last thought was only complimented by the gear he was sporting. As she drew closer, she noticed a set of goggles resting on what looked like some sort of green scarf, though she wasn’t quite familiar with the style. It was still too dim for her to make out his eyes, and considering her own goggles were hooked onto her backpack, it probably didn’t make much of a difference.<br/><br/>James simply stood there as he saw Alex’s car pull up.  He figured it would be best to avoid drawing any weapons, but he kept his guard up.  No telling if this woman was about to go hollow again or something.  The thought of that actually frightened him somewhat.  If it was anything like what had happened before, there was no way he’d ever stand a chance against her in a fight unless he had the drop on her, or some other tactical advantage.<br/><br/>James opened his mouth to say something, but then shut it.  He realized he hadn’t really given much thought as to what he would say once he finally confronted her.  Then again, did this even constitute a confrontation, exactly?  He went through a list of things he could open with, but then Alex seemed to beat him to it.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“What’s yours?”</font> he responded.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Not to sound rude or anything, but I’ve never seen an Immortal turn into a hollow and then back again.  What the hell happened today?”</font> he asked, folding his arms.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“And furthermore, what is it that you want to gather us here for, Alex?”</font><br/><br/>Alex was genuinely stunned by his question, so much so that she stopped walking. She thought on it for just a moment, quirking her eyebrow. If he had beaten her here, he must have been following her since that showdown on the road. Though she never saw him during the entire ordeal, admittedly she wasn’t exactly in control. But to know about that and head her off here means he must have been eavesdropping on her conversation with Missand, word doesn’t travel that fast. <br/><br/>At the very least, Alex no longer felt very threatened by him. If he had watched the fight to it’s conclusion, he was probably afraid of her. Not that she could blame him, she was afraid of herself too. She wondered what power he had, or if he could awaken too. No, he probably couldn’t, that’s probably why he sounded so calmly estranged about it. She could probably learn a thing or two about self control from him.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I’m not sure how long you’ve been following me, but I don’t exactly owe you information. Exactly who are you to be so concerned?”</font> She asked, setting her heavy duffel bags on the ground.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, an Immortal, for one.  Mostly I’m concerned about what happened to you earlier happening to me.  I would have been happy with that, but your conversation with that woman earlier, Miss… what’s her name.  Can’t remember it too well,”</font> he said, scratching his head.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“But, apparently there seems to be more at work.  Call it curiosity, or just a feeling in my gut, or whatever, but I feel like I need to know what’s going on,”</font> he said.<br/><br/>He unfolded his arms and looked back towards the interior of the town.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Also, I’m not sure if you could tell already, but this place is pretty well sacked.  There’s plenty of graveless bodies lying around,”</font> he added.  He looked back to Alex to try to gauge her reaction.  He doubted that she actually had anything to do with it, but it still seemed convenient that she would decide to go here at such a time.<br/><br/>Alex looked around, her attention pulled back to the state of the town. He was right though, it did seem overly convenient. Though, accusations didn’t worry her, he had arrived her first after all. She knelt down to rummage in one of the duffel bags, her back turned to him. She still felt aware of his presence, but not on edge. She didn’t get the feeling that he was here to attack her. He seemed confused, a bit scared. She could understand his reasoning. She smiled ruefully to herself, perhaps she owed him that much.<br/><br/>She turned, holding two collapsible spades in her hands, tossing one of them into the dirt a few feet from him. A moment later she hefted the duffel bags back onto her shoulders, <font color=""red"">”I understand,”</font> She said, with an inkling of compassion in her voice, <font color=""red"">”You want information, fine. But there’s no reason to be idle about it, like you said, there are a lot of graves that need digging.”</font><br/><br/>She left it at that, as she headed into the town, sure that he would follow. The main road led down a ways, surrounded on either side by the broken, burned shells of buildings. Getting a good glimpse of the place, there were bodies everywhere. And given the putrid smell hanging lazily in the air, it had probably been a few days since they died. She headed around the back of the most intact looking building, after dropping off her equipment inside. A few feet out from the building she stopped, pulling her shovel out to its full length and locking it with the pin. She was thankful for one real thing at this very moment, out here by the coast the dirt was soft. She could smell the ocean on the air, but the elevation she was at prevented her from seeing it.<br/><br/>It didn’t quite matter though, the heavy darkness was quickly approaching. The brilliant hues of orange, red, and yellow were quickly fading as the sun plummeted below the horizon. Which perhaps was her second blessing this day, doing this in the heat might have given her a stroke. She pulled off her jacket and tied it around her waist. She still wore a tanktop underneath, but she immediately felt cooler. She jammed the shovel into the earth, and starting the long process of digging a mass grave.<br/><br/>James looked between Alex and the spade for a moment before letting out a sigh.  He figured he’d get answers after all this was said and done.  He felt bad, simply digging one mass grave, but what more could be done?  He would have at least wanted an individual grave for each person, but he was, admittedly, beginning to grow impatient.<br/><br/>He took a pointer from Alex and took off his jacket and backpack, setting them near one of the buildings.  He left his hoodie on, though he did roll up the sleeves to his elbows.  It was nothing special, just a plain dark grey hoodie, with a couple of tears and patches from past use.  He began digging not far from Alex, taking a moment every now and then to spare a glance at her.  There was something oddly familiar about her, but he couldn’t put a finger on it.<br/><br/>He ignored the thought and kept digging.  He figured they should still have some conversation while doing so, help pass the time.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“So, your power, I’m guessing it has to do with electricity?”</font> he asked somewhat offhandedly.<br/><br/>Alex looked down at the shallow dent they had made in the earth together, feeling as if this would never get done. <font color=""red"">”It does,”</font> she said simply, throwing a scoop of dirt over her shoulder. The work was easy enough, but they had a long way to go before this night was over. <font color=""red"">”Though I’m sure you gathered that much from whatever vantage point you had, you must have been pretty far out,”</font> She commented, casually hinting at her thoughts on the aspects of his phenomena.<br/><br/>James thought about what she said.  She was definitely observant, to pick up on that detail.  Then again, it’s not like you needed to be a detective to deduce that James had better than average sensory abilities.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“You could say I tend to be pretty observant.  I could hear someone spit from a mile away, if that helps,”</font> he replied, a hint of flippancy in his voice. Alex looked up from where she was digging, shooting him one of those looks that seems innate for women.  James looked up and, upon meeting her gaze, let out a disheartened sigh and resumed digging.<br/><br/>The repetitious noise of the shovel digging through the earth became a plain, monotonous rhythm, adding to the eeriness of the atmosphere hanging over the town.  He stopped for a moment and took a look around.  By this point there was no sunlight left illuminating the sky.  Of course, the stars provided James with enough light that he could still see fine, but he figured Alex was probably not doing so well off.<br/><br/>He set the shovel down and reached into his messenger bag, pulling out a flashlight.  He flicked it on and set it on a mound of dirt, pointing it towards the section of earth Alex was digging.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Figured that would help,”</font> he said.  Alex nodded her thanks, letting the silence drag on as she focused on the task at hand. James was about to start digging again when he realized he had never introduced himself.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“My name is James, by the way.  And yes, I have been following you; practically all day.  I was with a couple of others; Vladimira and Ivan.  I left a note at a bar for them, if they wanted to find me again.”</font>  He picked up the shovel and got back to digging.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“It seemed like they were going to do their own thing, but who knows,”</font> he added.<br/><br/>Alex paused momentarily, wiping away the sweat dripping from her brow. Even with the onset of the night, it was still warm out for the time being. Perhaps up here on the mesa, the temperature was less likely to become freezing like so many other nights did. Though the weather patterns in Dust had always be odd. Still, she mulled over the thought of Vladimira. A part of her wondered if she was alright, the other worried that she had made a deadly enemy.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Heh, small world, I know that woman,”</font> She replied, sounding bemused. Though that wasn’t entirely a facade, she still had some naggling worries in the back of her mind; wondering if Vladimira would show up here fully awakened and looking to settle the score.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Oh, so you knew her?”</font> he inquired.  Upon thinking back to the fight, he began to think about what exactly had happened.  He had nearly forgotten, but this woman had killed someone.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I couldn’t tell for sure in all the fighting.  Did you know the other woman, too?  You know, the one you killed?”</font> he asked, his increased temper showing through as he practically spat out the last few syllables.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I uh..”</font> Alex started, feeling the sting of his words, <font color=""red"">”No, I did not.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Mmmm,”</font> he grumbled.  There was a short pause before he finally said, <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, maybe it was better that way,”</font> he said, a sharpness still in his voice.  He kept digging, his pace quickening slightly after the short argument.  Once his temper began to level off again, he considered the thought that she wasn’t in control.  Upon thinking about it further, he came to the conclusion that it was probably the most likely scenario.  He stopped digging for a second and let out a sigh before opening his mouth.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“I’m sorry.  You probably weren’t exactly in control, were you?”</font> he asked, shifting his gaze towards her. Alex looked up at him, her expression thoughtful as she looked at him, he was quite perceptive. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I kinda lost my cool for a second there, it’s just…”</font>  He let out another sigh before continuing.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I don’t know.  I feel like I need something to blame.  She didn’t have to die.  I know it probably isn’t your fault, but still.”</font>  His eyes shifted downwards for a second before he turned back to the hole and resumed digging.<br/><br/>Alex chuckled, ruefully, sadly. <font color=""red"">”No.. it was my fault. You’re right, I wasn’t in control, I was weak,”</font> She said, jamming the shovel into the quickly deepening hole as if for emphasis, <font color=""red"">”She got in my way.. and I killed her, like I’ve killed so many others..”</font> Her voice dropped off at the end, and she let the statement hang in the air for a moment. <font color=""red"">”You saw what I was, you couldn’t begin to understand what was happening at that juncture in my life.”</font><br/><br/>James stopped for a moment, looking back at her.  He was about to say something else but decided against it.  He thought about what else he could say, but when he came back with nothing he simply continued to dig.  Silence remained between them for a while, except for the sounds of their shovels penetrating the ground and tossing clumps of dirt onto the growing mounds. Alex stopped digging, setting her shovel on the edge of the hole and pulling herself out.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I’ll be right back,”</font> She said, already walking towards the building where she had left her gear. A minute or so later she returned with two cans, utensils, and a device to open them. Additionally she held a jug of mostly clean water. <font color=""red"">”You said earlier that you wanted to know how I became a hollow, still sure you want to know?”</font> She asked, sitting at the edge of the hole and patting the area next to herself.<br/><br/>James looked out from the hole, seeing Alex go to one of the buildings and return with what seemed like food.  Following suit, he set the shovel aside and pulled himself out of the hole before dusting himself off.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, if this is going to be a recurring thing, I think it would be pertinent for me to know, yes,”</font> he replied, smart-assedly.  He sat himself next to Alex, taking the can and opening it before digging in.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”By the way,”</font> she added, <font color=""red"">”I’m Alex, and I’m not some vicious killer, really.”</font><br/><br/>James couldn’t help but chuckle somewhat.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, I guess it’s nice to officially meet you then, Alex.”</font>  He got up and went to his backpack to grab a bottle of water, then returned to where he was sitting before.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“So, anyways, do tell,”</font> he stated as he sat down.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Well..”</font> Alex started, taking a breath and looking out into the starry veil of the sky, <font color=""red"">”I’m not sure how much of this you’re going to believe, I barely believe it myself.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Please, you made it rain earlier today.  How can it get any crazier than that?”</font> he quipped.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I guess you’re right,”</font> She agreed, taking a quick bite of canned beans, <font color=""red"">”I wasn’t a hollow.. well not exactly I guess. As far as I’m concerned all Immortals can do it. It has to do with your spark.. I.. I could never hear mine before today, but.. it’s sentient. I can feel him, in the back of my mind. Sometimes he comments too, but I do my best to ignore that..”</font> She paused, realizing she was was beginning to babble, and looked over at him.<br/><br/>James stared back, a fair amount of disbelief written on his face.  He thought for a moment that she may have had some mental disorder.  He didn’t say anything about it, but that was the only thing that came to mind.  He set down his can before speaking up.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Okay, let’s say that…”</font>  He stopped himself as he finished processing what exactly Alex said. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“No, wait, I’m sorry, the spark is sentient?”</font>  Of course, given how unexplainable any Immortal’s powers were, it wasn’t too far out, but still.  He had never heard <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> spark talk before.<br/><br/>He wasn’t exactly sure how to continue with that.  He kept thinking about it, but it really… no, maybe it did make sense.  Immortals who were otherwise rational people have been known to go crazy before.  Possibly the spark had side effects.  But still, sentience?  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I dunno.  You’re right, I actually do find some trouble believing that,”</font> he said matter of factly.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, whatever.  Is that it?”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”That’s the least of it.. my spark’s name is Aeshma,”</font> The name rolled off of her tongue awkwardly as she said it, <font color=""red"">”I don’t know how to explain it.. but he was in control back there during that fight.. I don’t know what happened. I was kind of having a breakdown, and I could feel this.. hot rage boiling inside me, I think that was his influence on me.. he seems so.. predatory… I mean, I never knew he was there and then suddenly there was this presence clawing into my mind and putting me on the back burner,”</font> She paused for a breath, gulping down some water from her jug.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”You can feel it.. the change.. I don’t know how to describe it. I could control what was happening.. but the other two seemed to be themselves. For months I felt lost, and angry, lashing out at everything around me. Now I know why, I wish I couldn’t hear him anymore, that he would go back and be dormant… but on the other hand.. that rush of power.. it’s unreal.”</font> She looked at her hands, stopping again and thinking back on what had happened, trying to remember the feel of it. Since she wasn’t in control and was busy freaking out, the memory was hazy, but it was there.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Questions?”</font> She asked, turning to him. He seemed to be struggling with her words, and Alex didn’t blame him. What she was saying was more akin to the ranting of a crazy person, the spark is alive, it’s evil and powerful and murderous. The corner of her mouth pulled back in slight amusement, maybe she was just crazy.<br/><br/>James was still pretty well shocked, but he knew there was a way to confirm this.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, if Vladimira shows up, I’ll have to ask her about it.  If her story is consistent with yours, then I guess I’ll have my answer.”</font>  He ate what was left of his can of beans, then set the empty can aside.  He then let out a sigh and took a swig from his water bottle before leaning back and staring up at the stars for a bit.  Even though he knew there was never a starless night for him, he never really stopped to get a proper look at it.  There was something inherently comforting about a clear night sky, and as that thought crossed James’ mind he couldn’t help but crack a small smile.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Nice night,”</font> he said, simply, bringing his hands up and placing them behind his head.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Not for them,”</font> Alex muttered, setting her nearly empty can down in favor for her shovel. She took a quick drink from her jug and dropped back into the pit. Ignoring the ache in her muscles from the day’s activities and strain.  James let out a low grunt as he remembered what it was they were doing. They worked in silence for awhile, other than the occasional sigh of exhaustion or grunt of effort. The night dragged on, but other than a slight increase to the darkness nothing really changed much, just the sounds of night and the monotonous tones of digging.<br/><br/>Finally, when the hole seemed to the appropriate size and Alex was busy using the shovel like an ice pick to climb her way out, she turned to her digging companion. <font color=""red"">”So.. you got your answers, but I wonder... what’s keeping you here?”</font> She asked, plopping her rump on the ground for a break.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, for one thing, I can’t leave these people lying around here.  It’s only right to burry them with some amount of dignity and respect,”</font> he replied, digging himself out of the hole.  He set his shovel aside and took a knee a few feet away from Alex.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“That and I’m still a bit curious,”</font> he continued.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“What are you hoping to gather Immortals here for?”</font>  It was a question that was still on his mind, but that was more of a cover for him.  He couldn’t shake the feeling that somehow he knew this girl.  He wanted to find out why or where from.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Fair enough.. I’m not entirely sure. Have you seen the new information uploaded to the terminals?”</font> She asked, tilting her head to look at him as she layed back on the ground.<br/><br/>James knew about the terminals and whatnot, but he never really bothered to look at them for anything other than general knowledge while he was studying in Aspin.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, I used to live up in Aspin, but I never really stayed up to date on things.  I should probably change that now that I don’t have engineers and physicists to talk to all day who know everything about everything.”</font>  James sat himself down fully before continuing.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“What, exactly, are you referring to?”</font> he asked.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Not sure how long it’s been up, but there’s a video of something closely resembling what I went through killing that guy who calls himself ‘The Watcher’ … basically his dying words were that we’re all monsters. Things are only going to get worse for us.. better that we’re together before they start rounding us up and putting us in cages,”</font> She speculated. <font color=""red"">”I want to separate myself from the standards.. the world is hard enough without their baseless discrimination and fear. I’m sure there are others who feel the same way. Somebody has to take initiative.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Is it really that bad?”</font> James asked.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I mean, maybe I got lucky, but… discrimination?”</font>  He hadn’t really had a taste of true discrimination.  There were a few in Aspin who didn’t like him, but for the most part everyone treated him relatively normally.  Or maybe he hadn’t really picked up on it.  Who knew.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Maybe living in a city with the most advanced technology and the best scientific minds we know of exposes you to more people who understand that we’re still human.  At least, mostly, I suppose.”</font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Mostly</span> huh?  Well, if what Alex had said was true, that wasn’t too far off.  If this spark was… sentient, and it could turn an Immortal into what was essentially a hollow…  James put his hand to his face.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Man, shit just seems to get worse, doesn’t it?”</font> he asked rhetorically.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I guess I never really knew how bad it could get,”</font> he finally conceded.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I got a reality check a long time ago, mostly kept to myself when I got to Russell.. but that still didn’t protect me from it. The standards, they get scared easily, scared of us. This unrest has been growing for awhile now.. especially with the Wings,”</font> Alex sighed, lacing her fingers together across her chest.  <font color=""red"">”Maybe you were lucky.. I wouldn’t expect that to last forever.”</font><br/><br/>James let out a grunt of acknowledgment.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“You’re probably right.”</font>  It was pretty typical of humans to be scared of things they don’t understand.  Sadly, there didn’t seem to be a line between <span class=""bb-i"">things</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">people</span> as far as that went.  History proved that time and time again.  He shook the thoughts from his head and directed his attention back to the task at hand.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Right, let’s start gathering the bodies,”</font> he said with a melancholic tone, getting up and heading towards the town. Alex sighed in response, her body protesting loudly as she pulled herself to her feet.<br/><br/>It was a short walk back around the post office, which Alex had figured out what the only real building partially intact was earlier when she went to retrieve the food. It wasn’t huge, but it wasn’t small either, though it was hard to tell anything about the place as most of it had collapsed. There was at least one good room, and a partially collapse hallway from what she had seen. The rest of the town was going to take a lot of work.<br/><br/>As she and James walked into the town, the air was heavy with the smell of decay and charred wood. There were bodies everywhere, and in every state of mutilation and death. It was almost like some sick, twisted Forsaken art. James made a conscious effort to avoid looking at the various bodies. Pieces of limbs were strewn about in the street, long swaths of gore trailing behind them. Alex looked over at James, partially jealous at his little scarf thing, she had no such thing to pull up to protect her nose from the pungent smells. She walked to a large, half burned husk of a building, picking up a piece of wood from the ground. It had been a sign of some sort probably, but it was so marred beyond recognition that Alex gave up hope of trying to figure out what kind of building this particular body was halfway out the window of. <br/><br/>She reached over with her gloved hands, gripping the upper torso by its shredded, blood stained shirt and tearing the body from the window. The boards squealed loudly and snapped, letting the body loose in a small shower of broken wood and splinters. The body hit the ground with a wet thud, followed by a wet slap of what Alex assumed were his insides. She didn’t bother looking to check. Instead she grabbed the body by both arms and dragged it behind her, though she could tell from the weight that it was probably only one half. She sighed heavily, putting the thought from her mind.<br/><br/>James had to look away from the torso as it split in half in the frame of the window.  He realized he would have to deal with the smell for a while and pulled his shemagh over his face to block some of it.  Reluctantly, he reached in through the window and grabbed what was left of the body, lifting it through the window and following behind Alex.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“This is going to be a long night,”</font> he murmured.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”It’s been a long life,”</font> Alex chuckled.</div>"
162,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-05-10 22:08:00,bobert778,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">On the journey to Russell City, Ivan followed the constant sputtering of the motorcycle's engine as he glided across the swampy and warm earth. The ground hadn't taken very well to the water, and was only now beginning to absorb the liquid to create a soupy quagmire from what had once been dusty and rocky earth. Low to the ground as he was, the mud began seeping underneath Ivan's clothing and splashing all across his front as the mound of earth he slid upon constantly needed to be reshaped. As the small group neared the fringes of Russell City, Ivan heard the motorcycle's engine begin to give out and not long after actually entering the city they had stopped all together. <br/><br/>James abandoned the bike, speaking briefly with Vladimira and leaving it for her to deal with since it had belonged to the corpse she carried with her. James then left in search of the woman that had fled from the fight, the one that had appeared hollow, requesting he go alone which left Ivan somewhat downtrodden as he watched James' muddied silhouette move away. He'd suggested they 'regroup' later, and so Ivan nodded at his departure before turning to face Vladimira. She didn't sound all to overjoyed at being left with everything, though in fairness James had been correct in deciding it best to leave the corpses possessions with the corpse. <br/><br/>It was true that she'd need to haul about the sled she rode, and the motorcycle, but Ivan felt it wasn't really his place to start getting involved in this stranger's business. “<font color=""#a36209"">The road’s wet enough that everything slips</font>,” Ivan laughed, proving his point by raising the mud beneath him slightly so that he could slide off the mound. “<font color=""#a36209"">Should be easy enough to move things about</font>,"" he then commented, hoping to make her task easier without needing to stick around and bother her.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Anyways, it’s been nice meeting you, Mrs. Kovalik, but I feel it’s none of my business following you about. Enjoy the sky water</font>,” Ivan  bid, departing soon as he gave Vladimira a friendly pat on the shoulder, which left a large and dirty hand print. Half stumbling, half sliding, Ivan quickly found the nearest wall and began walking down the street, keeping one hand on the nearby buildings as he hummed a tuneless melody. It had been at least a year since he'd visited Russell City, and the last time he'd ventured this way had been simply to run an errand for someone. There was good value to be found in smuggling things, and Ivan was unpredictable in his routes which a man in Locke City had learned to greatly appreciate. There was no business to attend here though, and Ivan was fully stocked on supplies from his visit to Isolone. <br/><br/>Feeling somewhat lost, the man turned his head up slowly to feel the water falling down upon his face. He'd become drenched by now, and this finally brought his attention to the dryness he felt inside. The feeling churned the uncertainty within him, and as the dryness began to give way to a gnawing sense of emptiness Ivan knew he needed to find a place to think. He'd walked at least a few blocks by now, and looked about as he tried to get his bearings. Before too long he realized such efforts were wasted though, and decided simply to duck into the nearest alleyway as he felt up the buildings on either side. <br/><br/>Above him, he saw faded pools of swirling dust stacked upon invisible platforms which he could recognize as the building's fire escape. In an effort to reach the top of the building, Ivan pushed up a mound of mud to reach for where he could only assume the ladder would be. He didn't know where he was, or if anyone would mind his presence, but knew he needed to get somewhere high up as what felt like a void in his chest began to expand. He cursed as his wrist smashed against the metal bottom of the ladder, muttering unhappily as he yanked down on the rungs so he'd be sure he could climb it. Then from there he hauled himself up the side of the building, groping about and leaving trails of mud as he touched everything he could. <br/><br/>Upon reaching the top of the final platform, Ivan slowly hauled himself up the ladder that had been bolted into the side of the building. Every rung he climbed, he'd lift his hand in the air and feel for what he hoped would be a flat roof to climb onto. If it turned out he couldn't sit at the top of the building he'd need to climb back down and find another tower to scale, this thought causing him to frown as his hand pawed about again. Another rung, and again Ivan felt about for the rooftop but still finding only the wall of the building. Three more rungs later, and Ivan breathed a sigh of relief as he finally had found the top of the ladder. Knowing how far he should expect to reach now, he hastily climbed the remainder of the ladder and began crawling about the rooftop to try and absorb what he could about it.<br/><br/>The building itself was made from something that had started out as stone, or at least a good portion of it was constructed from the material since Ivan could still see the faint outline of the building's insides. Long ago he'd given up on trying to learn why he could and couldn't see certain things, accepting the fact that it seemed he could only truly recognize any natural or pure material. Concrete always came in kind of smudged and off, glass visually just rung hollow, and brick was just a block of floating flakes which would easily change depending on the brick's composition. It didn't mater much, not now at least, as all Ivan needed to know was that the roof was solid and he could sit upon it. The traces of the building's insides were easily ignored, and Ivan instead focused on bringing himself into that same sitting position he always took up; legs crossed, hands in his lap, and head down.<br/><br/>He forced himself to slow his breathing, realizing it had become a little heavier than normal. He never embraced thinking, but liked it all the same as it reminded him of his humanity. That's what he'd come up here to do: think. So he let his thoughts flow freely, contemplating the emptiness he felt as his head fell back and he began to drink from the sky. It had been a long time since he'd felt this way; known the sensations that feeling lost always brought. His mind wheeled towards the man he'd met today; James. He had been kind, and a young soul that had yet to see the truth ahead. Many people never saw what it all meant, but James maybe would figure it out in time. This thought brought a smile to the corner of Ivan's lips, and he gulped as enough water had filled his open mouth to swallow. Where James had gone, Ivan didn't know but he felt he'd like for them to meet again. Who Vladimira was hadn't really stirred much interest, despite Ivan wanting to reflect on her briefly. His mind soon moved on to other things though, like the water falling atop his head, and the unusual hollow incident earlier today. Reviewing his day like this always brought him a sort of comfort, as it gave him a second chance to analyze his thoughts which he always viewed as important. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a36209"">If everyone asked every question twice, there would be more knowledge with less answers. Less regret in the world, and more purpose.</font></span> Amusing himself with those reflections, Ivan snorted, feeling lost in his own mind but no longer lost with his thoughts. It was a slight change but it made a world of difference, and Ivan took another deep breath as the existentialist within him took over.<br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Ivan didn't know for certain how long he'd been atop the roof, but it had been long enough that someone had found him up there and roused him from his meditation. He felt content now, and at peace with the fact that he might never see James again. The man had good intent with wishing they could 'regroup', but in a city as big as Russell and how easily lost Ivan would get the chances they'd run into each other again were slim. He'd seemed like an interesting character, Vladimira too, but they both had their own agendas just as Ivan did. He'd been heading up this way to reach the northern coast, and look again upon the silt coated and shifting dunes that lay beneath the waves. Perhaps even he might plan to stay there for a while; find joy in meditating by the coast and playing his flute to the wind. For now though, he'd wait out the sky water and planned to do so by getting a drink. He had ammo; just enough left to get him a cheap meal, a drink of the fermented kind, and perhaps some something-something if the bartender would send him in the direction of a dealer. <br/><br/>Still, Ivan ran his hand along the sides of the various buildings as he trudged through the muddied streets of Russell. Most people that were still outside were busy collecting the water as it fell, with some children having escaped their parents to run and splash about. A large truck had been parked in the middle of one street, with enough mud still on it's sides for Ivan to recognize that it was meant for hauling liquids. The presumed owner of said truck was arguing quite loudly with two men regarding the truck's placement. Ivan made sure to duck out of their way, being able to assume from the way the two men talked down to the first that they were Wings. Up ahead the outline of mud covered boots revealed a group of two or three people, hopefully individuals who wouldn't give him a second thought, who stood out in the street with muddy buckets and jugs in hand. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Excuse me</font>,"" Ivan called to them, his voice louder than usual after having quenched his thirst earlier, ""<font color=""#a36209"">would any of you know where I could find a tavern or somethin' like it?</font>"" For a short while there was silence, and Ivan only stood and watched as he waited for a response. He wished for a moment that he could see their faces, and know maybe what expressions they held. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#0072bc"">The uh, Bitch's Brew is a few blocks that way</font>,"" one of them said, no doubt raising their hand which remained invisible to Ivan. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a36209"">Sky water. I never really realized how dirty everything normally is</font>,</span> Ivan scoffed mentally, grabbing at one of the pockets on his vest and retrieving his compass. The thing was dirty from the inside out, and even as the rain splashed against the trinket to try and cleanse it the needle and disc within were still caked in dust and grime. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Sorry, which direction is 'that way?</font>"" Ivan questioned, looking down at the compass and orienting himself on which way was North.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#0072bc"">Excuse me?</font>"" the man replied, the splash of boots drawing Ivan's attention as the man walked closer.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Which direction? You know: North, South, East, West</font>,"" Ivan explained, walking forward to meet the man and show him the compass. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#0072bc"">Uh... a few blocks, East, I guess</font>,"" the man replied, sounding concerned as Ivan clicked the compass shut and returned it to it's pocket. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Thank you</font>,"" was all Ivan had to say to that, walking back to the wall and moving along it until he could turn a corner to go Eastward. Carefully, after walking past one crossroad Ivan began to listen for the slightest sound of music as it would be his only real way of finding the bar in this weather unless they had a sign. Chances are the sign would have been washed clean by now though, and with a sigh Ivan continued with tracing his hand along the walls of buildings. Another block and still the only sound was the drumming of the sky water, and Ivan was beginning to feel it's chill work into his finger tips. It was a chill like that which was brought on by night, something Ivan was no stranger too but still, the cold combined with the wet made him feel worse. He smelled like a wet dog too, but he himself hardly noticed the stench as the water thoroughly worked it's way into every space it could find. <br/><br/>When Ivan did finally hear music he pressed his head up against the next door he found and pushed it open, the sight of him noisily stumbling through the door of The Bitch's Brew causing a few people inside to look in his direction. He was breathing heavily, his clothing weighing twice as much as it usually did on top of the fact that he was cold. Uneasily he looked around, the music having stopped momentarily with his entrance but soon started up again which prompted Ivan to move towards the bar. The man at the counter seemed ready to protest as Ivan lugged himself across the room and into the nearest stool, fairly unhappy with how this stranger had just tracked a large portion of mud into the establishment. The bartender held his tongue for the moment though, Ivan's exhaustion being misperceived for a poor temperament as he threw his arms onto the counter with a wet thud. ""<font color=""#a36209"">I'd like something to eat, and drink. Whatever's cheap</font>,"" Ivan requested, his tone lacking hostility which let the bartender relax a little. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#630460""><font color=""#1a7b30"">Do you know the mess you just made?</font></font>"" was the response he got, causing Ivan to look back towards the door at the practical trail of mud he'd created. Next his eyes moved downward, examining the puddle of dirty, brown water that had formed beneath his stool before he returned his attention to the bartender. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">I'll take care of it on my way out. Dirt likes me</font>,"" Ivan explained, smirking underneath his hood before he let out a sigh. Even if he couldn't see the mans face, Ivan knew he probably didn't look too happy. In hopes of distracting the man's attention to something else, Ivan pawed at his vest for the pocket he kept stray bullets in. He found it quickly enough, and reached inside to grab the first two bullets his fingers brushed against before he placed them on the counter in front of him. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Something to eat, and drink please</font>,"" he repeated, trying to make his words sound apologetic in tone. <br/><br/>The bartender replied with an unhappy sigh, plucking the two metal cylinders out of the dirty puddle they rested in. ""<font color=""#007236""><font color=""#004b80"">Sure thing, but I want you out of here soon as you finish</font></font>,"" he instructed, Ivan giving him a thumbs up in response. Ivan watched as the bartender moved about behind the counter, after a minute coming back to place a plate and a mug onto the counter somewhat carelessly. Ivan nodded in appreciation before he lifted the bottom of his hood, freeing his mouth and nose from it's confines but nothing else. In a very stiff and practiced motion, Ivan rose his hand and placed it on top of what he quickly figured out was some fairly stale tasting bread. It didn't have any flavour either, but it didn't matter much since all Ivan could taste was the dirty water all over his hands. Between tearing chunks off the brittle loaf, Ivan would reach over to the mug that had been placed near him and take a drink, noting that the beer was kind of watered down. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a36209"">Must not have paid him much</font>,</span> he thought, shrugging as he decided to be grateful the bartender had even served him something. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#007236"">Hey uh</font>,"" Ivan heard the bartender begin, returning from somewhere on the other end of the bar, ""<font color=""#007236"">your name wouldn't happen to be 'Ivan', would it?</font>"" he asked, sounding more curious than accusative. <br/><br/>Ivan stopped eating and looked around himself briefly, not expecting this man to know anything about him. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Why?</font>"" was what the bartender got as a response, Ivan quickly biting into the last bit of bread he'd been given. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#007236"">I have a note someone gave me earlier today, and they asked me to pass on a message should I see any of the two people he was looking for. Does the name 'James' mean anything to you?</font>"" the bartender asked, causing Ivan to stop chewing. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">What's the message?</font>"" Ivan asked, trying to sound disinterested as he finished his meal.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#007236"">Well I have the note right he-</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">I can't read.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#007236"">Oh, well maybe for a bit of lead I can read it to you</font>,"" the bartender smirked, holding out his hand. ""<font color=""#007236"">That and I'll forgive you for the mess</font>,"" he then added, his tune having changed to make him sound quite pleased.<br/><br/>Ivan grumbled, finishing his drink with a few swift chugs before he reached inside his vest pocket again and pulled out another random bullet. He only had a few left now, and was hoping they'd be enough to get him something after this. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Here</font>,"" he grunted, dropping the ammunition onto the counter top before he moved to wipe his mouth and replace his hood again. <br/><br/>The bartender again plucked the bullet from the muddy puddle before unfolding what sounded like paper, and just loud enough for Ivan to hear read what was on it. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""<font color=""#007236"">Vladimira, Ivan, whichever of you get this, I found out where she's going.  I don't know why exactly, something about gathering Immortals, but she's heading to Isolone.  I'm going to try to head her off and make sure it isn't a trap or something.  Somehow I doubt it; she doesn't seem too dangerous right now, but there's no telling when she might go hollow again.  Whether you follow me or not, stay safe.  The Wings are looking for you two.  I'd keep my head down if I were you.<br/><br/>PS. Her name is Alex.<br/><br/>-James</font>""</span><br/><br/>Ivan laughed, slamming his fist on the table as he pushed himself to stand. ""<font color=""#a36209"">I get to see him again. That's grand!</font>"" Ivan chuckled, adjusting his clothing a little before he turned towards the door. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Thanks for the meal, eh,</font>"" Ivan quickly said to the man behind the counter, walking towards the front door of the bar. As he left, Ivan lifted his arm, calling to him the puddles of mud and sludge as he opened the door to leave. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Have a good night, everyone!</font>"" he shouted back inside the building, the mud swirling around his legs as he stepped outside and shut the door behind him. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Isolone,</font>"" Ivan breathed, inhaling deeply as he walked out into the street and pulled out his compass. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Isolone,</font>"" he repeated, orienting himself in a southern direction so he could begin walking. It'd be a long trip, but maybe if he rushed himself he could get there some time tomorrow.</div>"
163,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-05-12 09:34:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><br/>They spent some time gathering bodies and hauling them to the hole. Despite the time that it had taken to dig, it still felt early into the night, perhaps just a few hours in. Though, it was hard to tell as the darkness seemed to settle in every corner and crevice. This had the effect of creating a somber kind of atmosphere, depressing and full of unspoken sorrow. For a time, Alex and James worked in resolute silence, going about their work slowly and steadily. The town was in a higher state of devastation than Alex had first realized.<br/><br/>Her boots stuck to the hard, blood stained earth as she trod across it, the congealing trail of blood make sickening suckings sounds as she traveled back and forth from the ruins to the pit. The desolate, abandoned buildings seemed to grin with wicked maws through the darkness. Their rubble strewn bodies collapsed and charred. Alex turned into one of these buildings, her flashlight barely penetrating the darkness as she made her way around overturned furniture and shattered aesthetics. Glass crunched beneath her boots, pulling her gaze down for just a moment. She was standing on the remnants of a broken family photo, poorly taken, but clearly outlining the joyous faces of the former residents. The daughter of which Alex had just finished hauling to the pit from outside the house, all four pieces of her.<br/><br/>A frown pulled at the corners of her mouth, and she looked away. She knew she should feel, sick, nauseous even–any normal person would. Yet, she only felt her cold, steel reserve to finish burying these people, however informally. She wasn’t planning on saying anything afterwards, no hopeful words for the departed. She hardly felt anything, most of the time she was lost in her own thoughts. At least, what thoughts were her own. Occasionally Aeshma would chime in with a snide remark about weaklings, or tasty morsels. The latter thought did make her feel just a tad queasy. It wasn't easy having a presence inside you that literally felt the need to express his desire to consume raw, human flesh. <br/><br/>Alex scoured the house, not finding much in the way of bodies. Plenty signs of looting and destruction, and large smears of blood to enhance the overall scene of the house. Though, she was only able to pass through the common area and the dining area. The rest of the house had collapsed, probably from being set ablaze as the soot covered floors and charred splinters of wood would suggest. As she rounded the corner back out of the kitchen, her flashlight graze across a boot protruding slightly from beneath an overturned sofa. She braced her foot against the upper edge of the sofa and gave it a solid push, sending it toppling over and revealing a large portly man beneath. Despite his bloody, half squashed appearance, it was plain to see was, or had been, the father.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”James,”</font> Alex called out, <font color=""red"">”I’ve got a large one over here.”</font><br/><br/>James had largely disconnected himself, partially out of conscious effort, after the fourth or fifth body, and the last several minutes sort of blurred together.  To him it was almost as though he forced himself into a lower state of sentience, simply doing what he knew he should be doing and not giving it any more thought.  He stopped keeping count of how many he had laid into the hole, as well as stopped caring about the people they used to be.<br/><br/>After what felt like countless minutes of this, the sound of Alex’s voice snapped him back to reality, bringing his attention the cooked body of a young child.  As he fully realized what he was doing, he let out a slight yelp and unceremoniously dropped the body onto the dirt just outside of the house he was in.  He took a moment to process the last five seconds, then turned to where he heard Alex call from.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">“Yeah, okay, give me a second,”</font> he said, giving the body he had just been carrying a brief regretful look.  He came to the house Alex was in, finding her standing over the body she had mentioned.  He was, indeed, a big one.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Okay, so, I grab his legs, you grab his hands?”</font> he asked, fairly distraught.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Sounds like a plan..erhm..”</font> Alex started, positioning herself around the top half of the man, <font color=""red"">”Well.. hand and stump.”</font> She grabbed exactly that, what was left of the man’s forearm and his one remaining hand. She gave a grunt of effort, mimicking that of James’ as they hefted the body upwards. Alex’s hands slipped away from their purchase, losing grip due to the half congealed blood his body seemed to be coated in. Her half of the body hit the floor with a wet thud. <font color=""red"">”Fuck, sorry,”</font> she said, letting out another grunt as she struggled to raise the body off the ground and keep her grip.<br/><br/>James jumped slightly when the body slipped from Alex’s hands, but his grip didn't waver.  He let out a slightly shaky sigh.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Let’s just hurry up,”</font> he said.  He had been trying to shut out his emotions ever since he first laid eyes on the carnage, but for some reason now he was finding it difficult, a growing feeling of uneasiness settling inside him.  It had been a long time since he ever saw carnage of this degree.  He couldn't think of exactly when, but he knew something had happened, several years ago.<br/><br/>He cleared the thought from his head as Alex picked the upper part of the body back up.  It took far too much effort to move the ample girth of the corpse, by the time Alex and James reached the pit and rolled the body in, Alex felt just about worn out. She stopped for a moment, placing her hands on her knees and taking large breaths of air. She looked down at herself, barely illuminated by the glow of her flashlight, which was currently laying askewed on the ground. She was covered in blood, and other filth. She felt almost as if she had begun to rot too, maybe from the sheer stench of the all the bodies. She had the sudden, powerful urge to wash herself, but she suppressed it. That would be a deplorable waste of drinking water.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”How about a break huh?”</font> Alex suggested, doing her best to wipe her filthy hands on her shirt, aiming for some paltry semblance of cleanliness. The act wasn’t very effective, it had become very apparent to her that she would be burning her shirt when all was said on done. In fact, she had discarded her jacket to remain with her supplies awhile ago, and was contemplating doing the same with her pants. She decided against that thought upon observation of her trousers, they were lost to the cause as well and would have to be cremated.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">”Holy shit, I thought you’d never ask,”</font> he said, letting himself drop to the ground with little effort.  He wasn’t exactly physically exhausted, but either way he needed a moment to regain his calm.  He would have been fine if it weren’t for the town being a massacre, but that, coupled with his jarring break of focus moments ago, had done quite enough to shake him somewhat.  He leaned all the way back on the ground, bringing his hand to his face.  He stopped it short when he noticed just how much blood covered it.<br/><br/>He sighed once more, rolling onto his side, staring into the desert, trying to recover himself.  This wasn’t like him, and he knew it.  He began to worry that he might devolve into paranoia again, but he somehow doubted it.  It felt different from how he did before one of his episodes, though the last few hours definitely did take a toll on him.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Dammit,”</font> he muttered.  He kept passively scanning the desert, trying to distract himself.<br/><br/>Alex joined James’ on the ground, placing herself next to him. She shuddered slightly as her hands pressed into the earth, and the loose soil clung to grime coating them. She dried to dust her hands off, but only succeeded in smearing the muck around more, causing her to sigh heavily. <font color=""red"">”What I wouldn't give for a shower.. or a river.. hell even a puddle, right about now,”</font> She muttered, mostly to herself as she recline back on her hands, looking up at the sky. Thousands of perpetually suspended lights twinkled as she looked at them, each one separately seeming to contest the others for her attention. Space seemed truly wondrous at moments like this, only brought down with the realization that she would be stuck here. In a world where hauling mutilated corpses was the normal, day to day routine of life.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”You ever wonder if our ancestors did something to cause this?”</font> She started, peering over towards james. She had never been the religious type, she always sought comfort in logic and reason, things she could perceive. Invisible deities had never seemed to help her much. <font color=""red"">”What could a person possibly do to deserve a world like this, I wonder,”</font> She pondered quietly, feeling utterly and incomprehensibly small in the grand scheme of things. She sighed, turning her gaze upwards once more, <font color=""red"">”I guess it doesn't really matter now.. nothing matters but survival. I think that’s why I'm here, James, survival. I've lived everyday in fear, wondering if it would be my last. Perhaps the wastes would claim me, maybe the Wings, or some back alley mugger would get the jump on me. Living a quiet, meek like.. I know, I don’t seem the type right?”</font> She paused, chuckling.  James scoffed slightly at that, rolling himself onto his back as she continued.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”When I was young… I was taken away from the family I can only assume I had.”</font>  James had a feeling he knew where this was going and tried to shut out what Alex was about to say.  <font color=""red"">“I lived in a slave camp for years, it was there that I first became an Immortal. I thought that with powers like these, things would be different. Yet, everywhere I turned there was only discrimination and fear.. oppression. Things are getting worse too, you'd have to be blind not to notice it. What would we do if everyone turned against us? When they finally start raising their guns en masse, to eradicate us, one by one. When all I want is to live like they do, with a semblance of freedom in a world that’s already too dangerous for anybody to effectively live in. I want a family, I want a home, I want to live where I don’t have to fear everybody trying to knife me in the dark…. I want to stop being a slave to other people’s desires and emotions.”</font><br/><br/>Despite James’ best efforts, memories of his own time as a slave came flooding back to him.  All the memories he had been repressing for the last several years.  Of course, it was hard to keep them from bubbling up every now and then, and it figured it would happen again, now.  There were too many triggers all around him at that moment.  Countless mutilated bodies, endless desert all around, isolation, darkness, and now Alex’s own recountance.  He closed his eyes and turned back over in the sand, a pained expression forming on his face as he actively tried to shut out the memories once more.<br/><br/>Alex stopped suddenly, letting herself fall back onto the ground to calm down. She felt tears glistening at the corners of her eyes, but she dared not wipe them away with the state of filth her entire body was in. <font color=""red"">”But I can’t do that by myself, that’s why I sent the call out... I know you don't really know me.. but it would be nice to know that I’m not in this alone,”</font> Alex posed the question softly, as if afraid of the answer. She was so tired of being alone, so tired of living in fear and paranoia. She tired of what the world had made her… a monster too worried about others to show her eyes in public.<br/><br/>She leaned up and stuck out her grimy hand in his direction, <font color=""red"">”Would you help me change the world James?”</font> She asked bluntly, an inkling of hope creeping into her voice despite making such a wild proposition to a stranger she had just met a few hours ago. A stranger that had watched her kill another Immortal in the guise of a savage beast. A stranger that would help bury a town for no other motive than it had to be done.<br/><br/>James had hardly registered what Alex said.  His mind was too preoccupied with the tempest of tumultuous thoughts and memories that circulated in his head.  It was only at the direct mention of his name that he finally turned back to Alex.  He tried not to show his distress so much.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I’m sorry, did you say something?”</font> he asked, relatively nonchalantly.<br/><br/>Alex looked at him, a bit taken aback. This gave her a moment to actually slow down and mull over everything she said, though it took mere moments until she broken down into a fit of giggles. She fell back into the dirt, laughing at the absurdity of it all, the insanity of what she was asking. She wiped away her tears, grimaced at the moist, spongy streak left across her face, and turned back to James. <font color=""red"">”I said, do you want to help me change the world?”</font> The question still sounded highly absurd to her, but the tone of her voice made it certain that she was entirely serious.<br/><br/>James couldn't help but be slightly confused.  Of course, he hadn't quite gotten the entire context of what she had said, but the question itself helped fill in the gaps.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Change the world,”</font> James said, somewhat whimsically.  He let a smirk crack on one side of his face.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I don’t know about that, but for now I think…”</font><br/><br/>He stopped himself short, his smirk disappearing in an instant.  He had heard something, something close, much closer than he should have allowed before picking up on it.  He bolted himself upright, simultaneously drawing his CZ and cursing himself as he realized his AK was lying with his backpack, several meters away.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I think we have company,”</font> he whispered, turning his head around rapidly.  Alex rolled over onto her stomach, trying to find what James was looking at. James jumped up to a crouch and turned towards the town.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Wolves,”</font> he said, noting the unmistakable sound of paws hitting the sand.  He really wished he hadn't zoned out; they were already in the town, probably preparing to get the jump on James and Alex.<br/><br/>James stood up and reloaded his CZ with his low-grade rounds, firing two shots into the air before switching back to his usual loads.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Hopefully that will deter them,”</font> he said.  Unfortunately, that wasn't so, as was evidenced when a howl pierced the silence and several gaunt, dog-like figures emerged from behind various buildings and debris.<br/><br/>Alex stood, frantically patting herself down. She grit her teeth, trying to stave off the fear that was trying to slowly ensnare her. <font color=""red"">”Fuck,”</font> she cursed, <font color=""red"">”My stuff is in the post office..”</font> She let the sentence hang as the low growls creeped closer to them. There was no chance she could outrun a pack of wolves, she was defenseless. She kicked herself mentally, she should have recharged back in Russel, but she hadn't been expecting to find Isolone in this state–and without power.<br/><br/>James had taken note of Alex’s lack of weaponry, and from the look on her face, suspected she also couldn't use her power.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”My AK is just over there,”</font> he said, looking at the porch of a house about 30 meters away where his belongings sat.  He handed his pistol to Alex before continuing.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I can get there if you keep me covered, either that or you can keep their attention until then.”</font>  He could feel his heart rate increasing.  As much as he hated to think so, it was probably their best bet.  Given the circumstances; 13 hungry wolves, a pistol with a tendency to malfunction, and no other means of defense, they needed to tilt the odds in their favor.  This was their best shot.<br/><br/>Alex looked at James curiously, pulling back on the slide of the gun. She wasn't quite sure what he was bringing to this fight, but she did agree on trying to obtain his weapon. She nodded, satisfied with the condition of the pistol–which was subpar. <font color=""red"">”I can barely see without my light.. I’ll try to grab their attention,”</font> Alex said, feeling her leg muscles coil with adrenaline as she inched towards the opposite direction of the porch. The wolves came closer, their eyes glowing a pale green in the dark night. Alex quivered with anticipation as the pack slowly advanced. <br/><br/><font color=""darkred"">”Such tasty morsels.. let me-”</font> Aeshma hissed from within Alex’s mind. She shut him out, putting her entire focus to the encroaching animals before her. Their low growls seemed to echo across the packed, rocky soil, reverberating all around Alex. <font color=""red"">”GO!”</font> She called to James, feeling her adrenaline spike as she fired a shot directly ahead of her. She wasn't sure she actually hit anything, her vision too obscured by the darkness. A furious cacophony of barks and howls sounded out around her as she sprinted opposite from James stuff, leading the animals that were pursuing her around the back of the post office.<br/><br/>James made a dash for his AK, taking note of any of the canine predators that went after him.  The shots had done a good job of keeping their attention, but as he neared his AK one of them jumped in front of him, baring it’s teeth and snarling at him ferociously.  James slid to a stop, a mere five meters away from the beast.  From here he could make out the details of the animal quite clearly.  It was very wolf-like, but not exactly a wolf.  It’s fur seemed more rigid, and it’s ears were particularly pointy, shaped like an arrowhead.<br/><br/>The animal began to approach him slowly, step by step.  James held his ground, taking a quick look around to make sure that he wasn’t about to get flanked.  Sure enough, there was one more on his right, about to jump.  Damn pack mentality.  James dodged as soon as it made the jump, leaping to his left and rolling out of it.  He evaded the one going for the kill succesfully, but the one that seemed to serve as the distraction tried to go for James while he was still rolling out.  James kicked some dirt behind him in an effort to discombobulate the animal.  It worked just long enough for him to get up and make it to his rifle.<br/><br/>He snatched it up, taking a moment to get it in his hands before turning around and opening fire on the two that he assumed were pursuing him.  He fired three shots, but the two had broken off, possibly to try to flank him again.  He listened closely to their movements, hearing one of them move to the other side of the building next to him.  The other had gone a few buildings down, probably to head him off.  He broke away from the building and ran towards Alex, firing on three of the wolves that had gotten close to her.  They went down fairly easily, and it seemed like Alex had wounded another.<br/><br/>Alex’s legs pumped furiously, her feet nearly losing purchase in the dirt as she flew across it. Close behind she could hear the vicious snarls of the beasts. She squeezed the trigger of the handgun, aiming blindly behind her. One, two, three rounds, but she didn't wait around to see if she’d struck any of the wolves. She rounded the corner of the office building, sliding through the dirt as she tried to maintain her velocity. The wolves barreled around the corner after her, a hand's width behind her as she rounded another corner, heading for the front of the office. One of the beasts snapped at her, catching the rear of her pants and tearing away a chunk of the material as Alex pushed forward against the pull of the wolf.<br/><br/>The others seemed to scramble over themselves to get at her, their ferocity scared her, but spurred her adrenaline to greater heights. Still, she didn't feel she was going to make it, just a few feet from where her gear was stashed. The hollow crack of a rifle range out, and Alex could audibly hear the impact the rounds made against the flesh of her pursuers. She thanked James mentally, diving through the ruined window of the office. She hit the cool concrete in a roll, sliding to a dusty stop as she scrambled for her gear. Even though she was practically blind within the building, the paltry light coming through the window barely enough to illuminate anything, it only took her a handful of seconds to dump her stuff on the floor and secure her knives.<br/><br/>Glass crackled as an ash gray bloodhound leaped through the window, it’s rather large body breaking off jagged edges of glass from the window frame. Alex whirled around, rolling back as the beast soared towards her. Both blades plunged into its skull from beneath the wolf’s jaw, and as Alex rolled back she used her feet to propeel the wolf over her, rather than on top of her.<br/><br/>As the wolves pursuing Alex came to a bloody halt in the ground, James returned his attention to the two who were no doubt following him.  He heard one of them behind him, making a leap at him.  He spun around, the butt of his rifle hitting the wolf in the head, knocking it unconscious.  It hadn’t deflected it, however, and it still hit James pretty hard, knocking him onto his back.  He tried pushing it off, and while it wasn’t too heavy, he had bigger problems converging on him.<br/><br/>He pulled his AK out from under the beast and leaned backwards, putting the muzzle of the rifle into another one of the bloodthirsty hounds’ mouth and firing, sending a globule of brain matter out of it’s skull.  It collapsed in a heap as he spun the rifle around and shot another just before it tried to pounce him.  He checked around and, seeing no others in sight, pushed the unconscious one off of him and shot it in the head.  He brought the rifle to his shoulder, taking another quick look around.  The wounded wolf began to make a run for it, along with another that had witnessed the carnage.  Eight down, five to go.<br/><br/>Alex pressed the hilts of her knives together, locking them into place as she turned the two weapons into a single entity–A bladed staff of about five feet. She felt the familiar weight of the weapon as it whirled through her hands, it has been some time since she had felt the need to use it. She crouched, peeking out of the doorway of the building. The wolves seemed torn between their targets, but a few seemed set on Alex. One of them advanced, growling as it and Alex circled slowly in front of the office. She kept her eyes strained, scanning the very edges of her vision for movement, knowing that bloodhounds never directly attacked, not when they had backup. Sure enough, a pure white mongrel charged at her from her side. The bladed ends of the staff whipped around her as she spun the weapon, one tail end of it gouging a narrow line through the dirt as she brought it around and cleaved open the side of the beasts face. It howled in pain seconds before Alex whipped the other end of the staff around, fully decapitating the wolf and cutting off its strangled cries–literally.<br/><br/>James knew that the fight would likely be over soon, having heard two more of the hounds die at Alex’s hands.  Only three left.  One was inside the post office, probably about to try to get the drop on Alex.  One was trying to sneak around behind the collapsed inn, and the last one James couldn’t hear.  He ran over to where Alex was standing.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”There’s only three left.  One is…”</font> James stopped, lining up the sights of his rifle on the second floor window of the post office and firing twice.  A yelp came from the window, followed by a thud.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Make that two more,”</font> he corrected himself.<br/><br/>Alex flinched as the hound’s body hit the ground next to her. <font color=""red"">’He’s a damn good shot in this darkness..’</font> she thought to herself, keeping a watchful gaze on the remaining two predators. One of them feigned forward and Alex responded by whipping her staff towards it, causing the wolf to emit a snarl and back off. They circled around her cautiously, all too aware of how quickly their brethren had been gunned, or cut down. The one she had been watching, a midnight black wolf, feigned again but Alex flinched backwards, trying to remain aware of the wolf behind her. She shot a glance over her shoulder, turning slightly as the one in the rear let out a snarl, giving the first wolf all the opportunity it needed to launch itself at her. <br/><br/>As the final wolf made it’s presence known and began circling Alex along with the other, James brought his rifle up and took aim.  This was a typical tactic, Alex would attack one wolf, leaving herself open to the other.  Still, after taking a moment to gauge Alex’s behavior, he could tell which one she was going for, and as the wolf she had turned a blind eye to leaned back for the kill, James fired, splattering a mosaic of gore onto the dirt next to the bloodhound.  It’s body turned into a rigid corpse mid-leap, causing its lifeless body to fall to the ground and tumble into Alex’s legs. She yelped as she tumbled backwards over the wolf, prompting the one she had been watching to leap into action.<br/><br/>Alex didn’t bother trying to recover, rather she braced one end of her staff against the dirt, pointing the other towards the final bloodhound. The upward end of the weapon pierced through the middle of the beast. Its jaws snapped furiously towards her as it slid down the shaft, close enough that Alex could feel the heat of its foul breath. Aeshma roared from within Alex’s consciousness, tearing away her control. She let out a howl, her hands curled into claws as she gouged the wolf’s eyes out. The creature wailed pitifully as she attacked it with the same ferocity it had shown her. She took its jaws in both hands, feeling the creature’s sharp teeth cut into the palm of her hands as she twisted with all of her absolute, rage fueled might. The hound’s neck snapped loudly, to which Aeshma receded back into his dark corner of Alex’s mind.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Fuck Me!”</font> She exclaimed loudly, rolling away from the bodies of the bloodhounds. She knelt on all fours, trying to catch her breath as she stared down at her bloodied hands from between the bloodstained locks of hair dangling around her face.  James lowered his rifle, taken aback by Alex’s outburst of pure, instinctual bloodlust.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Shit, are you sure it’s dead enough?”</font> he chimed in, sarcastically.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”The Spark.. my spark.. he..”</font> Alex gasped. She stopped, trying to settle her nerves and maintain proper breathing. <font color=""red"">”I.. am fairly certain it’s not going to get back up,”</font> She replied, standing as she did so.<br/><br/>James looked between Alex and the corpse for a moment before simply bringing his hand to his face and sitting down again.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Well I guess that’s that,”</font> he said.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Two of them made a run for it.  One was wounded.  I doubt we’ll be hearing from them again for a while,”</font> he continued.  He let out a sigh, setting his AK on the ground next to him and laying down, still breathing heavily from the short battle.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”You’re a damn good shot James, I mean fuck, what did you say your power was again?”</font> Alex exclaimed, turning to look at him and failing to make him out clearly through the darkness. He was a blotchy silhouette to her, but the way he had gunned down those wolves, it was almost as if he could see clearly.<br/><br/>James look up at Alex briefly.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Like I said, I've got really good sensory abilities.  Sight, hearing, feeling, everything,”</font> he stated in between breaths.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”If I hadn't been distracted and caught off guard, I’d have heard those bloodhounds long before they reached the town.”</font>  He mentally reproached himself once more for that, knowing he could have easily dispatched them long before they were a tangible threat.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Hell, who's to say we wouldn't have been completely ambushed if I hadn't heard them when I did?”</font> he retorted.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”You’re probably right,”</font> Alex agreed, <font color=""red"">”Luckily neither of us were alone when it happened.. even armed I almost didn't make it.. so I mean, Thank you,”</font> She finished king of sheepishly, a feeling of familiar meekness washing over herself.<br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">”Speaking of which, can I have my pistol back?”</font> he asked.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Er.. here,”</font> Alex said, holding the gun out into the darkness, <font color=""red"">”I think there’s something stuck in the slide there.. some piece of hardware you got,”</font> She scoffed.<br/><br/>James took the pistol, noticing the stovepiped casing in the ejection port.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Shiiiit.  Well, it’s a good thing you didn’t need another shot,”</font> he said.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Yeah, it’s not great.  I bought this pistol a while back.  Thought I was getting a bargain for it, but it turned out to have a faulty ejector.  I would have replaced it, but parts are hard to find, and I’m not good enough at metalwork to make one myself,”</font> he finished, sighing as he pulled the slide back and let the spent casing fall into the dirt.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Heh, remind me to get you a new one when I get some hardware in.. going to need a lot of it for what I want to do,”</font> She said, carefully retracing her steps to clean up her stuff inside the office.<br/><br/>James chuckled slightly at that.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Yeah, will do,”</font> he replied.  He sat back up, picking his rifle up and putting it back with the rest of his things.  It was then that the smell of the many other dead bodies returned to him.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”Ughhhh… we still got work to do,”</font> he said, grabbing his things and hauling them to the post office.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Hey..”</font> Alex started, stopping in the doorway as James dragged his stuff closer, <font color=""red"">”You never answered me…”</font><br/><br/>James stopped at that, recalling the question she had asked before the attack.  It seemed a strange thing to ask, to “change the world” as she so put it.  He wasn't even sure how he or she would go about doing so.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I really don’t know,”</font> he replied truthfully.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”I mean, if I knew more about you and what you had in mind…”</font><br/><br/>He sighed once more, tilting his head upwards.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">”’Changing the world’ sounds like a tall order to me.  I mean, for now, I guess I’ll help you however I can.  If it’s like you said and things are really as bad as you say they are for us, there’s no point in going back to Russell City,”</font> he stated, matter of factly.<br/><br/>Alex smiled at him, sure that he would see it, <font color=""red"">”We have a lot to do, then.”</font><br/></div>"

Time dragged on for an eternity when you weren't doing anything, even more so when you were waiting for something. On top of that, this something was so potentially exciting, and dangerous; Jon was filled with a mixture of adrenaline and fear, the combination of which almost make him nauseous. Though, he was lacking a good measure of fear. Worried, perhaps, but it had been a long time since Jon had felt real, heart clutching fear.<br/><br/>During his training for the Winged Guardians, fear was something the instructors relentlessly tried to beat out of you. Along with mixed signals about shame and humility. Jon's mind wandered as he thought back to one of those particular moments, he had been young. Young, and afraid. Dark waves of fear thinly veiled beneath his demeanor of hope, for a better life. A life that would mean something.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">...Anything..</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""powderblue"">”Goddammit Jon! What are you waiting for! Crawl your worthless piece of shit! CRAWL!!”</font> Drill instructor Havvit screamed, his face face and covered in a mixture of dirt and sweat. Seventeen year old Jon was frozen, on his belly, still a foot away from the barbed wire that he was supposed to be crawling under. Thin muddy channels ran beneath the wire, forming shallow trenches between the stakes holding the obstacle up. Though Jon saw none of that, he only heard the roar of gunfire. The instructor yelled at him again, but the words fell on deaf ears. Ears covered by Jon's hands as he whimpered pitifully.<br/><br/>He was about to give up, to decide he couldn't do this, about to go home. A wrenching pain seared through his gut, doubling him over around the instructor's boot. <font color=""powderblue"">”What?! YOU PATHETIC LITTLE TURD! YOU WANNA GO HOME? DO YOU!?”</font> Havvit roared, as if reading Jon's mind. His screams over the gunfire were only met with pitiful sobs, emphasized by the tears coursing down Jon's face.<br/><br/><font color=""powderblue"">”Listen here you little fuck,”</font> Havvit began, crouching low next to Jon so he could be heard, <font color=""powderblue"">”Do you think the forsaken are going to wait for you to get your shit together before filling you full of holes!? Do you think the hollows are going to hesitate before tearing your little brother and stringing him up by his entrails?! CAN YOU NOT PROTECT YOUR FAMILY? ARE YOU JUST SOME STANDARD, WAITING FOR THEIR NAMED TO BE SIGNED ON A DEATH REPORT? TELL YOU WHAT YOU LITTLE BITCH, I'LL HAVE YOU BROTHER MAN UP AND DIG YOUR GRAVE WHEN I CARRY WHAT'S LEFT OF YOU HOME! MAYBE HIS TEARS WILL SOFTEN THE GROUND SO IT WILL BE EASIER TO DIG, IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT YOU WHINY LITTLE SHIT?!”</font><br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Sir! NO SIR!”</font> Jon squeaked, uncoiling from his position and wiping his eyes. Havvit was right, Jon didn't want any of that.<br/><br/><font color=""powderblue"">”WHAT DID YOU SAY? I THOUGHT I HEARD MY DAUGHTER FOR A SECOND.”</font><br/><font color=""cyan"">”SIR! NO! SIR!”</font> Jon bellowed, diving headfirst into the mud, crawling furiously as live rounds ripped through the air above him.</span><br/><br/>Jon smiled sadly to himself. Havvit was long dead, beheaded during a forsaken raid out in the sandy dunes of Forsaken territory. Jon had never had anybody give him that kind of real talk in his life, and he was thankful for it. Havvit hardened him, prepared him for the real world. When Jon came out on the top of his class, Havvit had laughed so hard he was brought to tears. They shared a drink afterwards, Havvit still chuckling to himself, amused.<br/><br/><font color=""powderblue"">”Looks like my little whelping turned into a man after-all,”</font> Havvit had said back then, toasting his drink to the night sky.<br/><br/>Jon looked up from the gunmetal bench he was hunched over as the door opened, signaled only by a slight hum and the quiet rush of air. <font color=""greenyellow"">”We're ready Jon,”</font> Dr. Addison said, turning and leaving just as quickly as she had come. Jon knew where he was supposed to be going by now, Grayson had damn near given him the full tour. The thought of Grayson made him smile, he was so proud of his little brother. No matter what Jon did in his life, the advancements Grayson was making would affect the world for a very long time.<br/><br/>Jon stood, stretching his stiff muscles. His heart was beating as if he had been sprinting. <font color=""cyan"">”Perhaps I too, can change the world, huh bro?”</font> Jon asked the empty locker room. It only took him a moment to shed his clothes and change out into a patient's gown. He was feeling kind of breezy in the back, but that much was to be expected. If something went wrong, and didn't kill him, the doctors would need quick access to his body and the gear he normally wore wouldn't allow for that. Still, without some form of firearm, or knife, or lethal object on his person, Jon felt kind of naked, regardless of the gown.<br/><br/>Jon familiarized himself with the weight of <span class=""bb-i"">Arthur</span>, his tactical brass knuckles. He was about to set it in the locker when the door quietly hissed open again, and a familiar voice spoke.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”You should let me hold onto that for you, for luck,”</font> Grayson said sheepishly, his young face brightened by his boyish smile. <br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Sure little bro, for luck right?”</font> Jon asked bemused, smiling as he passed the weapon to Grayson.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Erm, right. I actually came here to wish you that... Good luck, I mean,”</font> Grayson replied, stumbling over his words. It was very apparent that he was really worried.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Hey bro, you remember that time in the foothills?”</font> Jon asked rhetorically, recalling their favorite memory of their time together growing up.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”The foothills around Dresden? How could I forget such a thing!”</font> Grayson beamed, <font color=""orangered"">”I was stuck in a dead-end path, trapped by a wicked looking two-headed snake! And you just walked over, and picked it up like it was domesticated or something, and tossed it aside, cursing at it as it slithered away!”</font> Grayson retold, chuckling towards the end of it.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Remember that,”</font> Jon started, placing a hand on Grayson's shoulder, <font color=""cyan"">”I ain't afraid of nothin', it's everything else that's afraid of me. The boogeymen checks under his bed for me at night. Hell, the Reaper once came for me when I was shot once, I kicked his ass all the way out of the hospital wing!”</font> Jon boasted, full of mock bravado. He knew just how to ease his brother's worries, but there was only so much he could do in a situation like this.<br/><br/>Grayson replied with a fit of giggles, <font color=""orangered"">”Yea? Ok, Hah!”</font> Grayson remarked, wiping a mirthful tear from his eye.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”The point is little bro, I'm the manliest man around, and ain't nothin' gonna take me out of the fight before I'm good and ready, and that will never happen! I'm never gonna die! Not today! Not Tomorrow! I'm going to live a thousand lifetimes of whooping ass!”</font> Jon struck a pose at the end of this, flexing his arms with a leg on the bench.<br/><br/>Grayson giggled some more, before abruptly hugging his brother. <font color=""orangered"">”You better...promise?”</font> He asked in a quiet tone.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I promise,”</font> Jon said, his heart skipping a beat as he hugged his brother. <font color=""cyan"">”Now c'mon you little twerp, stop getting emotional on me. There's work to be done! MANLY WORK!”</font> Jon cheered, marching from the room melodramatically. <br/><br/>Grayson watched him leave curiously, a bit perplexed. Apparently his brother had never learned that his manly bravado wasn't as quite effective as he hoped. Grayson smiled still, his brother was always being weird, at least in private or among friendly company. He had been pretty thankful that Jon hadn't embarrassed him like that in front of his bosses. He chuckled to himself as he left the locker room.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”C'mon you slow ass,”</font> Jon teased, walking backwards as he motioned for Grayson to catch up.<br/><br/>For the next few minutes they walked in silence, with the occasional word uttered here and there, or a playful nudge. The corridor looked just as pristine as when Jon had arrived a few hours ago, he wondered if this was an inherent ability of the material or if there were some very stealthy janitors. The floor was cool against the bottoms of his bare feet, much cooler than he could remember ever feeling. Hell, he barely remembered what ice was like. He could remember having it a few times in Dresden, but such commodity had been hard for him to come by as a Wing. Ice cubes weren't exactly a pressing concern when you were on patrol or filing paperwork. <br/><br/>The floor actually made him shiver as he walked across it, causing him to be quite thankful when he entered the operating room. Not because the cold receded, in fact the room looked very much like the hallway other than the equipment in it, but rather because of the operating gurney. This room looked much like the observation room he had been looking at a few hours before. Seeing the same room, and having such vivid memories flashing through his mind made him realize exactly what it was he was about to do. The look of pain on that man's face as he burned alive, the sadistic smile from the rush of power. It made him slightly worried how such an experience would effect him mentally. <br/><br/>In fact, he was suddenly starting to get the feeling that this was a bad idea. It was very likely he could die. The scientists had explained there tests, but that hand only been a handful of people. What if he was the one in ten that would die? What if he became a hollow? Extreme scenarios played out in his mind, and for the slightest of moments he hesitated. Halfway between the threshold of the room and running back the way he had come. For a single heartbeat, a fear he was unfamiliar with had stopped him in his tracks. A fear that he was trained to ignore, yet it's icy fingers slithered around his heart.<br/><font color=""orangered"">”C'mon you slow ass!”</font> Grayson chided, playfully nudging his brother into the room. They chuckled together, Jon's worries washed away as he looked upon Grayson and remembered all of the things, all of the people he was trying to protect. <br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Got the jitters, Mr. Diederich?”</font> Dr. Addison commented as she walked in behind him.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Are you sure you're not like a medium or something? I swear all you scientists and doctor types know exactly when we're least expecting you,”</font> Jon retorted.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”We have watches Jon, did you not get the memo?”</font> Dr. Nevvo said plainly, following in behind Addison.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Must of missed it. So we're all on time, now what?”</font> Jon asked, walking into the middle of the room and sitting on the edge of the gurney. Dr. Addison and Dr. Nevvo separated to separate workstations on either end of the room, both of which were on wheels.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Now? We kill you,”</font> Dr. Addison replied bluntly. Grayson's face went pale, and it seemed as if he breath had caught in his lungs.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Please, Dr. Addison, no need to be so dramatic,”</font> Dr. Nevvo said, irritation creeping into his voice.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”We're going to tie you down, drug you, and fill the room with a gaseous compound that's going to turn you into a Popsicle. All with a homicidal creature we know next to nothing about in the room with you,”</font> Addison quipped, seeming to ignore Dr. Nevvo. <br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”Oh well, if that's all..”</font> Jon started, but the humor seemed lost to everybody else in the room.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Jon..”</font> Grayson started solemnly.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I know, I know... I'll be fine, alright?”</font> Jon said, trying to console his brother. Jon laid back on the table as Dr. Addison walked over, a needle held in her hand.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”This is a sedative, it's going to-”</font> <br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I don't need the full brochure package, Doctor,”</font> Jon said, cutting Dr. Addison off. She frowned at him, shooting him a steely glare as she pressed the needle to his arm.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Good luck, I'll be up in the viewing port with the general,”</font> Grayson said, looking slightly squeamish as he turned to exit the room.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”We're scientists Dr. Grayson, we don't believe in luck,”</font> Dr. Nevvo corrected, sounding as mighty and pretentious as ever. Grayson nodded in response as he exited the room. Jon was about to open his mouth to reply, when a sudden wave of numbness hit him. He tried to lick his lips but he felt literally paralyzed. <br/><br/>Dr. Addison laid him back, and began strapping ties around his body. <font color=""springgreen"">”These are to ensure you don't go on a power trip when you wake up.. and well.. to keep you still if the numbness wears off.”</font> Jon, even though he felt very compelled to, couldn't formulate a response, or even make a face, as she strapped him to the bed. He was stuck looking at the fluorescent light hunkered in its little glass dome attached to the ceiling. Dr. Nevvo leaned over into his vision, waving his hand and smiling at Jon as darkness descended across his vision.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Ah, Mr. Grayson, here to enjoy the show?”</font> General Paxton Bradley asked, chuckling heartily between puffs on the cigar he always seemed to have clasped between his portly fingers. <br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”I'm not sure about enjoying it..”</font> Grayson replied meekly, standing at the window to watch Addison and Nevvo prepared his brother's sleeping body.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”You're brother is a lot smarter than he comes off young man, he's tough as rock too,”</font> Paxton commented, through yet another cloud of swirling smoke.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”It's just.. is this really safe?”</font> Grayson expressed, his worries eating away at him slowly. He was proud to be able to help his brother, even more so that Jon reciprocated that feeling, nothing made him feel warmer inside. Yet, they didn't know enough about these creatures, and this one in particular seemed a lot smarter than Nevvo gave it credit for. <br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Proven and repeated results seem pretty solid to me lad,”</font> Paxton said, setting his glass of whiskey down. Grayson grimaced, looking over at the General. A wise, and battle hardened man, of some size, but Grayson felt him detestable. Always smoking, always drinking, as if he had to fill the void in his life with those vices. And now, risking his brother's life for some idea that he could create an army of Immortals, the idea itself was the very definition of dangerous science. Not dangerous because of the risks, but because of what people would do with it. Grayson had a book on “The Manhattan Project” which had changed his outlook on science. Humankind was always going to abuse and use progress.. but.. he was just some lowly acolyte in a world of supposed masters. He could only help them destroy the world, again.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Seal the room and let our friend out,”</font> Dr. Nevvo commanded, striding into the room and breaking Grayson's thoughts. Grayson looked at him, as Nevvo took his station at the view port. Grayson truly detested this man, he was a pompous ass and a fool who made a mockery of what science really was.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”Opening the vault now,”</font> Addison stated, her fingers tapping away on the keyboard of the terminal. This room was an exact replica of the other one they had watched a man nearly burn alive in. Though, that one was being cleaned at the moment.<br/><br/>Grayson watched as the most terrifying, and fascinating creature he'd ever seen was forced out of its hiding place. It screamed in protest, its cries shattering the stillness in the room. It had always been a curious thing to Grayson, the way its voice carried over the intercoms even when unplugged or unpowered. They had figured out that as long as there was a connection its voice would emit, it seemed to speak in a thousand radio frequencies. It flashed across the room, impossibly fast, its body becoming a blackened blur of what seemed like smoke as it transition from one spot to the other. It stopped in front of the window, it's faceless form seeming to stare at Dr. Nevvo.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Hello beautiful..”</font> Dr. Nevvo cooed, placing his hand on the glass almost lovingly, sickeningly.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”I'm starting the process,”</font> Dr. Addison said, though it didn't seem as if she was looking for confirmation from Nevvo. Grayson grimaced as he watched the scene, they were like twisted parents experimenting on their children–In the name of science. A part of him was glad neither of them actually had children, though he wondered what kind of twisted little monsters they would have grown up to be. A large, calloused hand placed itself on Grayson's shoulder, and he looked up into the grizzled face of Paxton.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Your brother is about to change the world,”</font> Paxton said a bit awestruck. Grayson didn't answer him, instead he continued looking out of the window as the room filled with an ethereal, teal gas. It settled across every surface, except for the preparation tables which had been wheeled after Jon was ready. The room began turning a shade of light blue as patches of ice began to form on the walls and floor. Jon's body immediately began to dim into a deathly, pale white. His lips rapidly turned into a bruised colored purple as the sheer cold worked its way into his body. A patch of ice formed on Jon's arm, but the spark didn't move.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”It's not working!”</font> Grayson exclaimed in a panic.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”Patience young man, we haven't met the criteria for bonding yet,”</font> Nevvo explained coldly, his attention never turning away from what was happening in the other room. The spark continued to stand still, it's wispy form hued in black unmoving, unflinching. Jon's body was rapidly deteriorating, becoming even paler with a hint of a blue tinge to his skin.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”You're going to kill him!”</font> Grayson cried out, pounding his fist against the glass in horror as he watched his brother die.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”That's what we need! Your brother knew the risks!”</font> Nevvo snapped, shooting an icy glare at Grayson.<br/><br/><font color=""springgreen"">”He's flat-lining,”</font> Dr. Addison commented, monitoring Jon from her terminal. Yet the spark didn't move.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”C'mon you bitch..”</font> Paxton said through clenched teeth.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Don't let him die..”</font> Grayson pleaded, tears streaming down his cheeks as he fell to the floor. He looked up to find Dr. Nevvo staring at him open mouthed. The spark too, seemed to be turned towards Grayson, <font color=""orangered"">”Please..”</font> he begged pitifully.<br/><br/>The spark let out a screech, its formless head thrown back as it assaulted the ears of those watching it. <font color=""springgreen"">”Its disrupting the system!”</font> Dr. Addison cried out, as the screen of her terminal erupted in a spray of electricity and shattered glass. She crumpled to the ground, her face peppered with the green tinted shards of the terminal screen, her face staring out in open horror.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Oh my god!”</font> Grayson cried out, falling back and scooting himself to the far wall of the room.<br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”You are.. so tremendous..”</font> Dr. Nevvo said, watching as the Spark flashed over to the gurney, crouched above Jon. It looked one last time at Dr. Nevvo, before bonding with the chilled body of a dying man.<br/><br/>The intercom in the room exploded in a display of fire and smoke, just as a piercing siren resounded throughout the complex. Paxton moved over to the door, trying to pry it open after it failed to do so automatically.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”It's jammed!”</font> He exclaimed, the butt of his cigar falling from his mouth and hitting the ground in a shower of ash and sparks.<br/><br/>An angry look came over Nevvo's face as the warning siren continued to blare, <font color=""greenyellow"">”You.. bitch..”</font> He said, betrayal evident in his voice as he pounded his fists against the glass. <font color=""greenyellow"">”You're not going to destroy me! All of my work! All of my progress!”</font> Nevvo cried out, barely audible as an explosion rocked the facility.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Hey! Over here you mongrels!”</font> Paxton yelled at the workers fleeing down the hallway. Grayson whimpered in complete shock and fear, his ears were still ringing and he was still huddled against the wall. <br/><br/><font color=""greenyellow"">”You BITCH!”</font> Dr. Nevvo screamed, a second explosion throwing him from the view port and sending him to the floor, where he came eye to eye with the still body of his dead assistant. <font color=""greenyellow"">”It.. it was too smart for us.. this whole time.. it could have.. it just..”</font> He blubbered, crawling towards her, his hand outstretched towards Addison's face. A third explosion hit the facility, causing part of the room's roof to collapse directly onto of Nevvo.<br/><br/>Paxton, seeing the opportunity, wasted absolutely no time, <font color=""indianred"">”C'mon Grayson! We're getting the hell out of here!”</font> He declared, yanking the boy to his feet. Paxton half led, half hauled the sobbing boy up the rubble.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”But! My brother!”</font> Grayson cried out, pulling against Paxton's hold on him.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”We can't help him now! Don't be a fool soldier!”</font> Paxton roared, overpowering Grayson's resistance and dragging him up the broken concrete to the floor above. They scrambled up into the hallway as yet another explosion shook the compound, knocking them to the floor.<br/><br/><font color=""indianred"">”Mother of God..”</font> Paxton breathed, staring at a wall of fire quickly funneling down the corridor.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>By the seventh explosion, Jon was fully conscious once more. He groaned as he tried to roll off of the gurney. His entire body felt like it was frozen, and on fire at the same time, he felt sick and a plume of dust was raining down on his face, yet he was still strapped to the gurney. He blinked, trying to clear his vision, trying to ignore the ringing in his ears, or the splitting headache continually slamming against his skull. Something was evidently, terrible wrong. He struggled against his bindings, feeling suffocated and claustrophobic, but they wouldn't give way. He screamed with effort, feeling the tightness in his chest increase, feeling his lungs struggle to pull in oxygen.<br/><br/>His body turned blue, icy blue, as a layer of frost permeated his skin. The straps across his body began to freeze, the thin layer of cloth shattering in its frozen state. Jon fell off the bed, gasping for breath as the ice on his skin subsided. <br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”It worked..”</font> He whispered hoarsely, he could hardly believe it. It glanced upwards, towards the viewing window. The observation room had a plume of smoke escaping through a collapsed ceiling. <font color=""cyan"">”Shit..”</font> he said, nothing could ever be simple and easy. He gathered himself and got to his feet, looking for a way out. He was still sealed in the room, but he could feel the tingle beneath his skin, the tingle of the phenomena the spark must have given him. He stretched his hands towards the door dramatically, trying to focus on the tingle beneath his skin. But nothing happened. Jon looked down at his hands, which from the wrist onward were a bright pink. It suddenly occurred to him that he couldn't feel his hands, yet he still had muscle control over them. He had trouble grasping the foreign concept of being unable to feel his hands, which caused him to exhale in frustration. A frosty cloud exited his lung, dotted with tiny sparkles of frost.<br/><br/>He raised an eyebrow curiously, exhaling a bit stronger than he had last time. Another plume roiled from his lungs, tiny ice crystals suspended in the air. He filled his lungs to their limit, and blew out a breath as hard as he could. The cloud of frost washed over the door of the room, audibly freezing it. Jon smiled to himself and kicked the door as hard as he could, shattering it into large, frozen chunks.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I just froze and broke a steel door.. holy..”</font> He started, but that thought escaped his mind as he looked into the flaming corridor before him. There was a definite bump in his plans, seeing as he couldn't feel his hands, but at least he wasn't useless. He took another breath, letting a plume of frost drift down the hallway from his lungs, the sheer coldness of his phenomena leaving an icy trail down the hallway. He tread across the surface carefully, but found that his feet acted like impromptu magnets. He walked across the thin layer of ice, his feet crackling as the soles of his feet stuck to the ice, without slipping. Though there was a moment when he lost concentration due to a door erupting off its hinges and followed by a plume of fire, but other than that he made it down the iced over floor without much trouble.<br/><br/>He found himself back at the locker room, and only partially damaged. A water main had burst, but one good lungful of oxygen froze the stream solid. Jon felt it better to change now, while he had the chance, than run around half naked. It was very difficult for him to work his hands, without being able to feel them he was constantly losing his grip on something or dropping it. It didn't help anything that something, somewhere in the facility had blown up again and sent another adrenaline spiking shock wave through the complex, causing Jon to lose his grip on his pants once more. He cursed under his breath, this was taking far longer than he would have liked.<br/><br/>Sometime later he found his way to the upper level. He had found out along the way that he could do the same trick with his boots if he focused–sticking to the ice from the fire he had to put out. As he descended higher, signs of civilization returned to him in the form of pained wails and panicked screams. He looked around frantically, trying to help where he could, but found most sections had suffered far more damage than those below.<br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite"">”I can feel them! I ca-”</font> A voice cried out, ending off in a strangled cry of pain. Jon sprinted towards the voice, a few doors down the hallway he was in an inside what seemed to be, well Jon didn't exactly know. Every room was kind of the same to him, full of test tubes and computers. This particular room held the mangled, bleeding body of a scientist trying to say something, but only succeeding in uttering pained gurgles. Multiple slashes coated his twitching body, and his eyes were rolling back into his head.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”What happened!?”</font> Jon asked, feeling stupid for doing so. It was obvious the man couldn't speak, yet Jon knelt next to him anyways, trying to offer some form of comfort. The scientist's eyes went wide, as he pointed up towards the ceiling. Jon looked up only to see the busted hatch of a ventilation shaft.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I don't know what you're pointing at,”</font> Jon said, desperately wanting to help the man. It was then that he heard the skittering sounds of something in the vents above them. He looked up once more, eyeing the opening suspiciously. A small creature burst from it, hissing viciously as it impacted Jon's chest. Jon moved his hands to fend the creature off, only succeeding in the thing biting his hands multiple times. He flayed his hands around desperately, unable to use them effectively as the creature tore into them, though his hands didn't bleed. He took a breath and exhaled, freezing the creature slowly as the icy cloud covered its body. It flipped over onto its back, its legs curling in towards its torso.<br/><br/>Jon rolled the thing off of him, getting to his feet as the frozen creature shattered against the floor. He looked at his hands, covered in what seemed to be like bullet sized holes, though he felt nothing, and there was no blood. Hell, with his luck the thing was probably venomous too, but he felt nothing, which kind of made him lose all hope of ever regaining feeling in his hands again. He knelt down near the broken pieces of the creature that had attacked him, struggling to pick up the pieces. He dropped one, and it shattered into even smaller pieces, provoking an angered string of curses from his mouth as he fumbled a second piece.<br/><br/>He almost had the third piece, but the scientist issued a loud gurgle of pain, causing Jon to drop that piece too, and let loose another string of profanities. He stood, defeated, and looked at the scientist, who was currently spasming. Jon was halfway to him when the guy's chest exploded, releasing what must have been thousands of tiny little insects, and not just any insect to Jon's great displeasure. Spiders. He blasted them with a wave of frost, but there were too many for him to effectively stop all at once. He dashed for the exit, reaching back to close the door and frowning in anger as his fingers fumbled the handle. He cursed again, leaving the door and heading further into the compound.<br/><br/>He could hear them all around him now, the skittering legs of the little black spiders, or the big black spiders. He wasn't sure which, he hadn't seen anymore... yet. He felt his breath come in ragged gasps once more as the walls loomed all around him, seeming to press in close. Panic built up inside him, causing him to fall to his knees. He held his head cradled in his arms, breathing in rapid, short breaths of air. As he rocked back and forth on his knees, the walls seemed to slowly recede to their previous positions and size, no longer threatening to close in around him. He gathered himself and stood, looking around nervously, as if the walls were baiting him into a trap.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">”I need to get the fuck out of here,”</font> He said, to nothing but the sounds of the skittering spiders in the vents. He made his way further down the hallway, or was he heading up now? He wasn't sure, he only knew there was forward. A few minutes later and her came to a stairwell, which he knew from memory lead up to the ground floor, where there was a nice large exit for him to go through and be free of this place. He took the steps two at a time, rushing up the flights up stairs, eager to free himself of this prison. He smashed through the ground floor door with his shoulder, its newly frozen hinges giving away easily under Jon's weight.<br/><br/>The ground floor was absolute pandemonium. Squadrons armed with guns stood backed up against one wall, their muzzles flashing without pause as hundreds of the larger spiders advanced towards them. Some, no a group, of the little beasts took notice of Jon, and he turned and left without another word. He sprinted down to the floor below, hoping to find another exit as he dashed down the hallway. This wind of the complex seemed rather intact, other than the gore streaked across the floors and the what Jon assumed were fresh layers of web spun throughout the corridor. He continued on, only pausing when a sign caught his eye–“Armory”. Now that sounded good to him.<br/><br/>Even better than the thought of somehow manipulating a gun, Jon eyed the cart Grayson had used to show off his new, fancy equipment. The thought of Grayson filled his heart with sadness, but if he had any hope of ever finding him again he had to press on. Jon walked up to the cage the gear was locked behind, freezing it with an angry exhale and shattering it with a solid kick. He used the same tactic to break open the cases, only now feeling the use of his power straining his heart. He gasped, struggling against the pain as his heart beat furiously in his chest.<br/><br/>It took a few moments, but eventually he recovered. He looked out at the gear spread out before him, the weapons, the ammunition, and the suit. <font color=""cyan"">”You are gorgeous..”</font> He said, looking at the wraith armor, only know what it was because of the clear label put on it. It took him some time, long enough that the explosions stopped and he no longer heard gunfire, but he managed to suit up fully. He found that he had much better control of the armored gloves, feeling through the frost coating the inside of the glove, rather than his hands themselves. It was still weird, and exceptionally awkward to put into practice, but it was manageable. <br/><br/>By the time he made it outside, the orange hue of evening was stretching across the horizon. He had found a blown side of the building, exiting just up the slope of the mountain. There had been a rather large fire, but that was quickly, and carefully dealt with. Jon didn't want to over exert himself again. He stood on top of a rather flat boulder, his gun resting in his unfeeling hands, yet he could feel the weight of it pulling against his arms, and in an offhanded way, Jon could feel himself holding the gun. If he maintained focus, he could do the same bodily freezing trick, but with just his hands, and he could feel them through the ice, somehow. Everything was an enormous mystery to him at the moment. Especially what had happened to the science facility, lying in a state of flaming ruin below him.<br/><br/>Even more so than that, the biggest question of all was what he was going to do now. Not with his new life, or powers, or even the search for his brother. He felt his sense of duty flare up inside him as he stared out over the roiling wave of creatures, exiting from the shattered maw of the building. Thousands of them plowing across the desert, heading west, towards Russel City. At the rate they were... skittering, they would be upon the residents of Russel in a matter of hours. Jon wasn't sure if anybody was aware of what was happening, or if anybody was prepared for such a thing. Jon had never even heard of such a thing happening before.. this horde of bloodthirsty creatures. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Somewhere within Russel City, beneath the pouring rain under the cover of a Winged Guardian's outpost, a radio crackled to life. The bored, on duty sentry yawned, taking hold of the device in his hand and pressing the button.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">”This is Sky Watch One, who is this?”</font> The Wing said lazily, watching the rain clean the boots he currently had propped up on the wall of the tower.<br/><br/><font color=""orangered"">”Sky Watch, This is Papa Bear,”</font> The Guardian sat up suddenly, focusing on the radio transmission, <font color=""orangered"">”Divert all assets towards the Eastern Perimeter.. I want.. everybody,”</font> The voice demanded. The Guardian set the radio down, feeling partly in shock as he raised his binoculars. He didn't see anything but a roiling cloud of dust heading towards the city. It could have been a dust storm.. unless it was a large mass of..<br/><br/><font color=""green"">”Holy... shit...”</font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Current Time: 4:35 P.M.</span></div></div>"

Why did he turn around?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00746b"">'Because I forgot'</font>.</span> Arcus muttered to himself. Luckily he hadn't walked far away from the city, and there was still plenty of daylight. The object of his forgetfulness was Tilli- his sister. He had fought to not think of her while he was in Russel City- he knew it'd get the better of him, ultimately- where Tilli lived, but now he was fighting almost every step with hesitation. Tilli would not ever forgive Arcus for killing mother, and she shouldn't. That all felt so long ago, though, as if it were a distant dream that Arcus struggled to remember. Almost like it was another life. The last time he had seen Tilli, she was just a child, but he heard that she's married now. Arcus had given her an opportunity to forgo Forsaken life and she took it; years later, Arcus found himself doing the same thing. If only Caden were here.<br/><br/>Now back in town Arcus was unsure of where to go, or where to even start looking for Tilli or her alleged husband. He remembered she liked watching fights- but here in Russel City there was no arena. Maybe turning around wasn't such a good idea, after all. Not that Arcus was incredibly confident in it from the get-go, anyway. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00746b"">'Well, looks like I'm here for the night. May as well wander a little- maybe I'll find Tilli.'</font></span> <br/><br/>That was a stretch, but anything was possible. Arcus wandered and lingered around the bar he had been in earlier- could still hear the two men talking that he'd heard the rumor about Isolone from earlier. Heard a few other voices, too-<br/><br/>One of them was familiar.<br/><br/>""Look, miss, iss' not safe out 'ere in the rain. Could catch a draft and get sick."" A man drunkenly said; he held a bottle and was dressed in sparse, soaked rag. <br/><br/>""Let us take ya' in for a while."" He and a similarly dressed fellow were cornering someone in an alley near the bar- a woman.<br/><br/>""No thank you, I don't live too far away."" She shyly replied, backing away and shrinking into the corner. Through the rain, Arcus caught a glimpse of her face from behind her hood and colorful rags. It was his sister. <br/><br/>""Aw, c'mon! Lemme' be nice once an' a while!"" <br/><br/>""I said I'm alright!"" Tilli yelled, lashing out with her arms. A bag fell into the mud. She yelped as the man shoved her while half-bending, half-falling over to take her bag. <br/><br/>""Seemed to 'ave dropped this, Miss. I'll just take a finders fee..."" he reached a muddy hand inside. <br/><br/>Arcus laid the sawblade of Brute flat on the man's forearm. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""If I were you, I'd put the bag down. Right now.""</font> <br/><br/>The drunk man was silent for several moments and kept glancing at his friend, as if he was expecting him to do something. His friend, in turn, kept glancing between Arcus and Tilli. <br/><br/>The drunk man had terrible hand-eye coordination, and Arcus was willing to be it wasn't all from the alcohol. He learned this as his shoulder dug into the man's ribs as Arcus dodged his slumbering swing of his bottle. With a pleasant thud the drunkard landed in the mud and Arcus heard the bottle break behind him. The now-writhing man's friend hesitated, but also swung at Arcus, who swung back. The two blows connected at the same time; the aggressor on Arcus' shoulder, Arcus' on the man's face. Arcus shrugged it off while a second unconscious man plopped into a puddle. At least he didn't hit his wound. <br/><br/>Retrieving the bag from the mud he took a few steps towards Tilli, who was no longer shrunk in her corner. She looked cautious but thankful. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Here you go, miss.""</font> He gently slung the bag around Tilli's shoulder. <font color=""#00746b"">""No finder's fee needed.""</font> They both smiled. <br/><br/>""Thank you, sir,"" she replied, ""but at least let me buy you a drink."" She adjusted her hood and Arcus got a better look at her face- as beautiful as ever- dark curls flowing down to her shoulders. Still kept her freckles, too, even though she must be nearing forty. He felt his heart flutter; even after all these years, Arcus could still recognize his sister among all these people. Heart of gold, too. <br/><br/>Arcus thought about declining, but Tilli didn't seem to recognize him. He longed to talk to his sister again, see how and what she was doing in life, and now may be the only opportunity he'd get. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""I'll take you up on that.""</font> He said quietly, turning back towards the bar. Tilli grabbed his shoulder, chuckling.<br/><br/>""Not in there. Let me take you to a nicer place."" <br/><br/>Arcus was nearly in tears, and he knew he wouldn't be able to look at Tilli without smiling. Averting her eyes, he replied with ""Lead the way.""<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>""Well, sir, all I know is you're an angel sent from heaven. Still can't get over that you look familiar, though."" <br/><br/>Arcus smiled and stared down at his drink- it was certainly better than the cheap crap he had, earlier. Not that this bar was much fancier than the other, just down the street, but at least the alcohol tasted better. Who knows, maybe it was present company that made everything better. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""I do my best to help out, miss. Winged Guardians seem to have their plate full, nowadays.""</font><br/><br/>""Yeah, well, you've been more helpful than they are on a <span class=""bb-i"">good</span> day. You'd be surprised how much of that type of stuff goes unnoticed. Names Tilli, by the way. And its <span class=""bb-i"">Mrs.</span>"" <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Alright, then Mi- erm, <span class=""bb-i"">Mrs.</span> Tilli.""</font> They shot smiles at each other as Arcus took another gulp of his drink. <br/><br/>""Don't think I ever caught your name.""<br/><br/>Arcus hesitated for a moment.<br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Evans. Most people 'round here call me Evans.""</font><br/><br/>""Around here? What do they call you everywhere else?""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Warlord.</span> That was Arcus' first thought; but he was a different man now. <br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Some call me Angel, I guess.""</font> <br/><br/>Tilli chuckled and flipped her hood back up before standing from the booth. <br/><br/>""Well I think that's a beautiful and fitting name. But sadly, Mr. Angel, I should get going. It's almost five o'clock."" <br/><br/>She kissed Arcus on the cheek on the way out and he felt himself blush- something he's not sure he's <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span> done. But he felt his heart swell- even though he had lied to Tilli, ultimately it was for the best, and both were leaving the bar happy.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Arcus noticed something tense in the air as he wandered the streets looking for a place he could afford to stay for the night. People were glancing at him, some pointing. Others grimaced and muttered harsh words under their breath. They seemed focused on his eyes- the only thing explicitly identifying him as an Immortal- it was easy to discern where their mistrust was. But why the sudden change? He'd been here for a while now and he hadn't been getting any hateful glances such as this. <br/><br/>Arcus could easily shove off glances, he'd gotten used to those, but when a man ran up to him, screaming how he'd ""doomed"" them, Arcus was infinitely more confused. Had the two men he defended Tilli from near the westside bar been men of importance? He doubted it, those two seemed hardly worth a bullet. <br/><br/>No, this was coming from something else. Perhaps it had always been there and Arcus was only now catching on, but something was causing unrest and tempers to bubble, and it was about to burst. Arcus could feel it. The odd bit was that he discerned it was particularly at his Immortalis status. <br/><br/>Crossing into the eastern side of the city was difficult as what Arcus assumed were patrols of Winged Guardians were talking among themselves and taking up a lot of space on the road as they moved east. More than once, Arcus had to shove himself past them. He was becoming more anxious- something was off. He could feel it in the air- a sense honed by his years of service in warfare. Something was about to happen, and everyone seemed to be growing more anxious by the minute. <br/><br/>Averting the eyes of those around him Arcus tightened his grip on Brute and Sam. His eyes caught a clock next to a sign on a building-<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">5:15</span><br/><br/></div>"

It was slow going, and tiresome, and she didn’t know how long she’d be able to keep it up before she had to call it a day and resume her search tomorrow. Nobody had known who the woman was, or recalled seeing her, and any others who might’ve known had fled at the sight of her arms and eyes.<br/><br/>She spotted a small cluster of people up ahead and figured she’d give it one last try before calling it off for the moment and sleeping… somewhere.<br/><br/>She walked up slowly and did her best to seem as non-threatening as possible, “Um, hi? Do any of you recognize her?” She pointed back to the body on her sled-thing, “I’ve been trying to fi-”<br/><br/>She was cut off as one member of the group shouted, “Gah! Fuck! Get away from us, freak!” The others turning to look before they all bolted in the opposite direction.<br/><br/>Recoiling slightly, she sighed again and turned back, this would’ve been so much easier if her goggles and gloves were still intact. Or the rest of her clothing in general.<br/><br/>She looked grimly at the corpse on her sled before grabbing a hold of the sled and the bike and dragging them along once more, this time in the direction of the Bitch’s Brew.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">4:07 PM</span><br/><br/>She pushed open the door, shuffling through it and relieved to be out of the rain, if only for a short while. She’d thrown a tarp she’d found somewhere over the bike and sled to stop them getting any wetter than they already were. Several heads turned towards her in idle curiosity as she entered the building, and curiosity satisfied, just as quickly turned back to whatever they’d been doing beforehand. <br/><br/>A sigh drew her attention and she turned to see someone she assumed was the barkeeper with his head in his hands. “Not again,” he sighed, “stop making a mess in the doorway, you’re the second person to do that. You want to make a mess in one of the beds, fine, just not in the doorway.”<br/><br/>“Sorry, what?” Vladimira asked in confusion, turning back the way she’d come and noticing the rather large puddle she’d left behind, “Oh.” She stood awkwardly for a moment, “Uhh, I can do something…?”<br/><br/>“Just buy a drink and I’ll forget it happened.” <br/><br/>She sighed this time, taking a seat at the bar, “Just give me some water, I’d like to keep my faculties.” She rummaged around in her pockets, pulling out a small handful of 9mm ammunition and handing over the appropriate amount.<br/><br/>The barkeep handed her the drink, commenting idly, “By the way, someone left a message for you, I’ll assume your name is Vladimira, not a lot of women running around with eyes like that.” <br/><br/>She looked up at him suspiciously, “Yeah, can I see it?” <br/><br/>Wordlessly, the bartender slid a sloppily folded piece of paper over to her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Vladimira, Ivan, whichever of you get this, I found out where she's going.  I don't know why exactly, something about gathering Immortals, but she's heading to Isolone.  I'm going to try to head her off and make sure it isn't a trap or something.  Somehow I doubt it; she doesn't seem too dangerous right now, but there's no telling when she might go hollow again.  Whether you follow me or not, stay safe.  The Wings are looking for you two.  I'd keep my head down if I were you.<br/><br/>PS. Her name is Alex.<br/><br/>-James</span><br/><br/>“Isolone, interesting…” She murmured to herself, Isolone was out of the way for her maybe she’d go there at some point, but not now. The Wings didn’t concern her, and keeping a low profile wasn’t exactly good for finding whoever had known the body outside. On that topic… “Since you’re not trying to kill me or run away from me like everybody else I’ve asked, you wouldn’t happen to know anybody who knew a woman with red hair, like, a giant shock of it? I’ve got this feeling someone knows her and it didn’t seem right to leave her body in the desert.”<br/><br/>“Oh yeah?” The bartender raised an eyebrow, “This broad got a name or what?”<br/><br/>Vladimira shrugged, “Don’t know, she was killed before I had the chance to actually speak with her. She had a bike though, if that helps.”<br/><br/>With a grunt, he Bartender paused for a moment, putting about half a second of visible thought into the vague description before snorting, spitting into a shot glass and wiping it clean with a rag at least two decades older than he was. “This broad,” he set the glass down, and moved his hands to his own chest, pantomiming what had to be the practiced action of grabbing breasts, “she have big knockers?”<br/><br/>Vladimira raised a skeptical eyebrow, “From what I could tell when dragging her body over here, in the same way you might call a dust storm a bit of sand.” Pausing for a moment she took a sip of water, “Why? That ring a bell?”<br/><br/>The Bartender grinned, “Maybe…” He knocked on the wood of the bar, “You know, information ain’t cheap, miss.”<br/><br/>“True.” Vladimira replied, fishing around in her pockets and pulling out another few loose 9mm rounds, “Now, information?”<br/><br/>Giving a tip of a non-existent hat as he pocketed the dirty ammo he shifted his gaze over to a gap in the wall of curtains, “Sounds like someone I heard the purple stripper talking about once--” He scratched his balding head, “Name’s Octavia. Immortal broad, got a nice rack too,” He gave what might one day be known as the creepiest wink in all of recorded history to Vladimira before finishing, “She can help you out.”<br/><br/>“Your generous act of philanthropy has saved a kitten somewhere, I’m sure.” Vladimira snarked back, “Truly you are a monument to human kindness and selflessness.”<br/><br/>She made her way over to the curtains the bartender had indicated, peering between them. With a somewhat apprehensive glance around the room, she slipped between them. “Eh, hello? I’m looking for someone named ‘Octavia’?” <br/><br/>Immediately noticing the presence of an outsider, a rather large unpleasant woman who had previously been fanning herself with pages torn out of the bible moved to intercept Vladimira before she made her way any further into the lounge. <br/><br/>“And whut dew yew wont with Gabby?” Her accent was as thick as the molasses that appeared to dribble out of the sides of her mouth. <br/><br/>“Well, I was planning to speak with her, if you don’t mind my intruding upon your little sanctuary back here.” Vladimira replied, raising an eyebrow and muttering under her breath, “Пизда стараыа…” <br/><br/>She looked back at the woman, “If I’m right, she’ll want to see me.”<br/><br/>The woman, whose overstretched tube top had the words ‘Big Bertha’ imprinted in mismatched sequence, shook with religious fervor. Or perhaps she simply gasped in a way that caused a rippling through her layer of blubber. Either way, she proceeded to place a hand over her apparently constantly agape mouth and, with effort, performed the motions of the cross over her chest.<br/><br/>“Baby Christ in heaven save us!” She practically threw the fan in the air, “Now that girl ain’t been here a day and y’all sodomites already…” Straining, she leaned to whispering distance of Vladimira, “...want to do <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> with the poor girl!” She gave another gasp, “The bible says it is an ABOMINATION for woman to lay with woman!” She pointed to a random passage on her fan, before giving a hefty sigh. “I suppose it’s only right… y’all ‘Immortals’ ain’t nuthin’ but the Good Lord’s abandoned no matter.  Abominations will commit abominations…”<br/><br/>She gave a sad look to Vladimira before turning to yell ‘<span class=""bb-i"">GABBAY!!</span>’ further in the stripper’s lounge and returning to masticate. After a moment, hastened by flames emitted from the soles of her feet, a young woman with skin and hair tinted purple flipped into sight. Landing with the poise of a gymnast between ‘Big Bertha’ and Vladimira, she seemed to instinctively the red-eyed Immortal woman had summoned her. <br/><br/>“Hi! Would you like a private dance?” She asked without missing a beat, with a perky enthusiasm equal parts genuine and force. “My rates are 140 assorted for an hour, 70 for half; fire is an extra 30. Non-negotiable!”<br/><br/>Recoiling slightly at the sudden appearance of Octavia in front of her, it took a moment for Vladimira to recover. “Em, no, sorry, I think.” She paused, “Not sure how to say this, but I just dragged a body here from the middle of the desert, and the barkeeper thinks you know her. I didn’t want to leave her out there so I’ve been going around the city trying to see if anybody knew her.” She paused awkwardly for a moment, shifting uncomfortably, “She’s eh, got red hair and a massive… chest. Ring any bells?” <br/><br/>Octavia’s eyes went wide. Tits McGee? The drifting doctor was the first person to come to mind based off that description. She had just seen Evelina with Miss Castalia earlier that day, had she not gone with her to the fashion district? As thoughts raced through her mind, Octavia managed to force out a squeak of a reply, in a noticeably dampened tone, “Umm… maybe?” giving an awkward shrug, the woman laughed meekly to fill the now heavy air, “Do you… still have, I don’t know… it? I mean, um… hers? Or rather, <span class=""bb-i"">Evelina’s</span> body?”<br/><br/>Giving a simple nod, Vladimira then jerked her head towards the door. “She’s outside, under a tarp and such, I did the best I could to keep her out of the rain while I came in here.” She paused, so her name was Evelina… She shook her head to clear it, “I take it you knew her, then?”<br/><br/>A weak laugh, “Hardly…” Octavia, moving past the curtains, began heading for the door, “She helped me out when I broke my leg once upon a time. It feels like ages ago…” She sighed, melancholy tinged nostalgia, “I saw her again for the first time in years just this afternoon! I guess she and the heiress were an item or something, because I’ve never seen Miss Castalia that happy before.” <br/><br/>Opia shot through her body as Vladimira’s eyes met her own, “She was a drifter… I don’t even think she really had anybody else… but… she was a really good person.” Outside, the pitter patter of rain meshed with the music of the golden bar. Octavia stopped just shy of the door. Sincerity and a registering of the red-head’s possible death bringing down her mood, “I just hope it isn’t her, y’know?”<br/><br/>“I’d be somewhat concerned if you hoped it was her, from what I’ve heard. If it is her… well, if it is her then the world lost someone it really needed not to lose today.” She stepped in front of Octavia, opening the door and stepping out into the rain. She made her way over to the bike and sled thing, concealed under the tarp. <br/><br/>She sighed, killing Forsworn or bandits was one thing, but if this woman really was who she’d been told… shaking her head again, she scattered the morose thoughts for the moment, slowly pulling the tarp off. “Well?” She asked simply.<br/><br/>Octavia didn’t know what she was expecting-- she recognized her bike before Evelina’s badly bloodied face was even fully exposed. As she stood, staring at the corpse of someone who might have eventually become her friend, she didn’t experience a loss of words, but instead a loss of action.<br/><br/>As in, she knew what it was she was feeling, her life in Serenity hadn’t been without its loss-- but she wasn’t quite sure how to react to this information. Was she supposed to cry? Octavia almost felt as if she wanted to, but simply couldn’t. It really wasn’t that she was numb to Evelina’s passing, but rather the reality that she simply didn’t know her that well. Octavia felt the pangs of sadness deep within her gut; she frowned, she sighed, she brought up a hand to cover her mouth-- but despite the sympathy-- despite the sad but all too common reality of the world’s loss of another bright light, she really couldn’t bring herself to do much more than look how she felt. A little melancholic.<br/><br/>It was okay, though. She supposed the sky was crying for her.<br/><br/>The novel sensation of feeling the wetness falling from the sky came secondary to Vladimira’s question. Octavia realized she had been standing silently for several minutes by that point. “That’s her alright...” In the rain, Vladimira’s glowing red eyes seemed almost mechanical, “I really wasn’t much more than a patient… but I’m probably the closest thing she’s got to family left…” An idea came into the forefront of her thoughts,  “Well… I guess there’s also…”<br/><br/>Vladimira slowly walked back over to Octavia, putting her left arm around her shoulder. “Sorry.” She said simply. This really wasn’t her area, she’d spent her time trying to find someone who at least recognized the woma- Evelina, and hadn’t thought of what she’d do once she found them.<br/><br/>She paused, unsure of how to ask what she had in mind, “There’s also… who, sorry?” She muttered somewhat awkwardly. Human interaction was difficult, machines were easier.<br/><br/>“No…” Octavia’s downcast gaze didn’t leave the body, “That would be a horrible idea…” She let the sentence drift into her thoughts, an ethereal silence grew as she thought, the odd static of rain became background noise to Octavia’s rapidly shifting mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">This was gonna suck!</span><br/><br/>“I guess I’ll take her body… ummm… somewhere, I guess? She deserves a funeral, and she really didn’t have anyone else..” Octavia turned to Vladimira, “Thank you. Seriously. You’ve already done more than like, ANYONE I know would do for me… I mean except my parents!” An uncomfortable chuckle, “But… And I hate to ask this… but there is something else…”<br/><br/>A horrible idea? What would be a horrible idea? Vladimira raised an eyebrow apprehensively, but decided not to ask. “Put it this way, if someone you know dies, you tend to want to know how and why. I can’t provide the why, but…” she trailed off, shifting uncomfortably. “What do you hate to ask, exactly?” she paused, “Does it involve this… horrible idea?”<br/><br/>Pulling the tarp back over Evelina’s face, Octavia sighed before addressing Vladimira directly, “Maybe just a little bit?” Another mirthless chuckle, “I mean, I’m curious, but I don’t know that it’s even my place to ask whys and hows… But I <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> know that it’s the place of my employer to ask… I’m pretty sure Tits McGee here and Miss Castalia were at least… I don’t know? Intimate?” She shrugged, “I mean, I just saw them together a few hours ago-- they were definitely on friendly terms. She’d probably want to know… but… I don’t know how smart it’d be to tell her, really….”<br/><br/>Vladimira’s eyes widened. This… Evelina, had been on “friendly” terms with one of the Castalias? She didn’t know a lot about the crime family, but she did know enough to know they were a big deal. “I’m torn.” She finally admitted after an uncomfortable pause, “On the one hand, I think she should be told, if only on principle. But on the other hand, I don’t want to think about what might happen if she <span class=""bb-i"">were</span> told. Is there… I don’t know, something you could tell her to convince her she just… went somewhere, or something?” She paused again, “There’s also the matter of her bike and the rest of her things… what am I, or you, or somebody, supposed to do with them?”<br/><br/>Octavia tapped her chin for a moment, “I can deal with her things… she’d probably want to donate them to a charity or a hospital or something corny like that.” She grimaced, “I mean, like as far as Miss Castalia goes, I guess someone could just tell her she… drifted off somewhere? To handle some healing emergency? I mean I’m pretty sure that’s what she did for a living…” <br/><br/>Of course-- if that were to work, though, she’d have to lie. A skill which she’d never quite gotten the hang of-- and on top of that lie to Lucania ‘Bloody Sleeves’ Castalia. Her employer was an intimidating woman, especially knowing the fact that she <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> spent what must have been a decade tracking down the man who killed her last girlfriend.<br/><br/>“Umm…” Octavia gulped, “Umm, well just…” She laughed nervously, eyes going doe-wide, combined with her soaked hair she must have looked absolutely pitiful-- which probably helped her cause. “Well, y’know… I can handle her stuff… so like, I don’t know… maybe, this is just a suggestion, but, uh, maybe, y-you could…” electricity jolted through her being. She couldn’t lie to Miss Castalia! She was such a dope she couldn’t lie to herself! Octavia’s entire figure moved in a motion similar to a bow--<br/><br/>“<span class=""bb-i"">UhhI’mreallybadatlyingsoIwaswonderingifmaybeyoucouldpleasebetheonetotalktoLucaniaImeanMissCastaliapleeeaaaaaasssssee?</span>” <br/><br/>She took in deep gulps of air after she made her request, not relenting from her prostrated bowing position, awaiting Vladimira’s answer as the rain continued to pour over her.<br/><br/>Vladimira wasn’t sure what to say. On the one hand she was somewhat capable of lying, but by no means a master at it- which was probably a good thing. On the other hand… lying to a high ranking member of the Mafia about the recent death of someone who was apparently her girlfriend just didn’t seem like it was something that’d be good for her health. If Evelina really had been a healer, saying she’d gone off for some healing emergency might’ve worked, if the one she’d be telling it to wasn’t a member of the Mafia.<br/><br/>“Чыорт возми…” she hissed, “I’m going to do this, aren’t I?”<br/><br/>She sighed, whipping her head up to look Octavia in the eye, “I’ll do it. I don’t know how, but I’ll do it. Where is she?” She paused, “And she has some ammunition on her, and a gun, I noticed. Perhaps I could give those to ‘Miss Castalia’? That might help… somehow?”<br/><br/>“Thank you!” Octavia immediately straightened up, a perkiness renewed as she addressed Vladimira’s other points, “From what I know about her… and, I mean, I’ve only met her a few times… she’s kind of a… romantic? Is that the right word? So yeah, I guess a gesture like that would go over well?” She shrugged, “-- honestly though, you should take some of the ammo for yourself. Y’know, as like a payment for all you’re doing... Miss Castalia is rolling in the stuff after all.”<br/><br/>Vladimira nodded, “Fair enough, I suppose. I’ll think of what to say when I give it to her, let’s hope I can think of something good to say, I’d prefer not to die horribly.” She walked over to the sled, quickly rifling through Evelina’s bags and pockets to pull out the ammunition and her gun, she didn’t mind looting the bodies of bandits or their ilk, but this just felt… wrong. “I take it you’ll do something with the bike, too? And her sword, do you want that?”<br/><br/>She paused as a thought struck her, “I don’t actually know where ‘Miss Castalia’ is… ehm, could you tell me where she might be?”<br/><br/>Octavia shook her head with a frown, “I couldn’t swing a sword to save my life! And I haven’t the slightest clue where she could be… I’d ask the Bartender, he tends to know theses things--”<br/><br/>Instantly, as if possessed by some otherworldly force, Octavia’s eyes shot wide open, her some expression gave way to a mechanical deadpan, in a fraction of a second she her face became as neutral as granite-- she leaned closer to Vladimira and whispered, “<span class=""bb-b"">He <span class=""bb-i"">always</span> knows.</span>” <br/><br/>And just as suddenly as her demeanor had changed-- it went back. As if she hadn’t noticed what she just said, Octavia continued, “But yeah, if you want the sword, take it-- otherwise I’m just gonna donate ‘em to who needs them most!”<br/><br/>Raising an eyebrow at Octavia’s commentary on the Bartender, “Well, I haven’t definitively proved that bartenders are part of a well organized pre-apocalypse information network dedicated to keeping them up to date on <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span>, but I’m pretty sure it’s the only plausible explanation.”<br/><br/>She paused again, removing the sword from Evelina, “I suppose I’ll take it, could do with a little symbolism of my own I guess.” She grabbed her rucksack and started strapping it to the side before stopping, somehow it seemed like it’d be a bad idea to be caught lying to a high ranking Mafia member about her dead girlfriend while carrying said girlfriend’s sword. “I don’t suppose you could keep this here for me for a bit? At least until after I’ve spoken with ‘Miss Castalia’, it probably wouldn't be a great idea to have that when I'm talking to her."" <br/><br/>Octavia shrugged, “Yeah, sure, whatever you need, man.” Handling the sword with a clumsy, she dropped the heavy metal rod of death on Evelina’s cadaver, “I’ll just be here, disposing of the body of my now deceased distant acquaintance in a respectful manner.”<br/><br/>Vladimira shifted awkwardly in her place. She didn’t really have any reason to stay here other than to ask the Bartender for directions, but she wasn’t sure what to think about just leaving Octavia here with a corpse to deal with. She opened her mouth to say something then decided against it, remaining silent for another moment before coughing awkwardly, “Well, ehm, guess I’ll see you later, then? Name is Vladimira, in case you ever need it.”<br/><br/>She walked back into the building, leaning against the bar and rolling another few loose 9mm rounds across it, “I’m looking for a ‘Miss Castalia’, I need to talk with her.”<br/><br/>At the mention of his employer’s name, the Bartender, who was amidst his generic motion of cleaning the seemingly infinite pile of dirty glasses with his rag, paused. The fear of some vengeful God seemed to flash across his eyes, before slowly, he restarted the repetitive, generic motion of cleaning the mismatched glasses and addressed Vladimira, an edge to his voice, he grunted, “Which one?”<br/><br/>Vladimira raised her eyebrow, “Didn’t know there was more than one ‘Miss Castalia’,” she leaned in closer, rolling a few more 9mm rounds across the table, “but I’m going to assume the one I want to talk to is the one making you sweat like a sinner in a church.” <br/><br/>“Heh…” The Bartender’s nervous gaze shot down to the rapidly accumulating pile of bullets in front, “Well her drunk sister’s on her way to Serenity as we speak… You’re probably looking for Lucania.” With a pained sigh, he pushed the bullets back to Vladimira’s side of the bar… were those tears in his eyes? Whether they were or not, became irrelevant as he spoke, “And you’ll need a lot more than this to get me to squeal, boss-lady doesn’t want no one knowing where she is…”<br/><br/>She sighed, so a few rounds wasn’t going to cut it then. She quirked an eyebrow, “Alright then, what do you want in exchange for ‘Lucania’s’ location?”<br/><br/>“I’m a simple man, with simple desires… uhhh…. Vladimira? Right?” He didn’t give her a chance to respond, cracking his knuckles, he continued his spiel, “I’m The Bartender!” And then, there was silence. The bar went quiet upon hearing such words leave the man’s mouth, it almost felt as if everyone was watching the two. The band started playing a <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkNV-0O1ya8"" rel=""nofollow"">haunting tune</a> on stage, the two-bit singer they currently had went silent.<br/><br/>He broke in again, this time in D-minor;<br/><div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">“I’m the Bartender!”<br/>“I’ll pour you a drink…”<br/>“Just like any man,“<br/>“I work with my hands,”<br/>“If you come to my bar…”</span></div><br/><br/>Grabbing a bottle of golden fluid, he jumped atop the bar;<br/><div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">“I’ll get you beer,”<br/>“Whisky ,ale, and rum,”<br/>“I’ll give you advice, for a little price…”<br/>“I’m that simple Bartender…”<br/>“And seeing your chest would be nice!”</span></div><br/><br/>Vladimira stared at the Bartender and the surrounding patrons incredulously. “You seriously went through all that effort -I don’t even want to know what it took to train your little musical friends to respond to whatever signal they did- and sang a song in time with them, to see me pull my shirt off?”<br/><br/>The Bartender processed the words silently, visibly deflating as a look of sheer horror spread across his face, “Oh my God, you’re right…” Still standing atop the bar, the man rested his cheek against his hand, “All that effort… and for what? A glimpse at breasts that can’t possibly live up to this fantasy I’m envisioning in my head? It’s just a couple of areolas and nipples! Why would I spend hours dedicating myself to getting unsuspecting women to expose themselves to me in such a manner!?” <br/><br/>The Bartender, now speaking louder, seemed to pose the question to the whole room of bar-goers, “A power trip? Is it less that I, The Bartender, receive some instant sexual gratification from an unwilling woman exposing parts of her body to me and more that I take pleasure in the fact that I wield the power to convince women to expose themselves for me-- that I can view their bodies as objects and then make them act upon my own twisted visions of what they are!?” <br/><br/>The band stopped playing, for a second time, all eyes were on the Bartender, now fully orating to the room atop his soap-box bar, “Why do we do it men? Why do we objectify women in such a demeaning manner? Why do we take pleasure in a woman stripping for our pleasure when we’ve got wives at home? When we could seek a more personal, intimate, and ultimately meaningful experience right here in Russel City-- Hell, and all over Dust!?You know what?! Women too! Everyone!! Why do we allow sex and the assertion of power over others to be so closely linked-- why do we seek to demean others for some arbitrary cause? Why do we repeat the mistakes of the past-- when we can respect each other as equals, and create a brighter future!!!”<br/><br/>Dead air. The Bitches Brew became as still as a Dead End whorehouse as patrons realized what they were being told. It may have felt like days passing in the minute after the Bartender finished his speech, and each patron and employee appeared mortified.<br/><br/>But then, a woman stood. A middle-aged stripper who had been previously sitting and giggling on the lap of a Gaen businessman. Heads turned to her as she stood, mouth agape, tears in her eyes. <br/><br/>She clasped her hands together once. Then again-- starting slow, she eventually enticed others to join in, first a few Castalia goons, a stripper here, a band member there, then a drunk woman dressed like a middle-schooler with a hat that was far too large for her head... eventually the whole bar found themselves in an uproarious applause for the man… no, --<span class=""bb-i"">The Bartender</span>. <br/><br/>People soon left their seats, surrounding, Vladimira, and the bar The Bartender was still atop-- the crowd wouldn’t stop cheering. The Bartender had said what they were all thinking, but were too afraid to say.<br/><br/>The <span class=""bb-b"">TRUTH.</span><br/><br/>This was a man they would all follow to the ends of the earth-- a true visionary. He saw what was wrong with things and wanted to speak out about them, all with a cold one by his side. Applause changed to the chanting of the name, ‘<span class=""bb-b"">BARTENDER!!</span>’ People from other parts of the bar joined in-- filling the main room and prompting an exit into the raining afternoon of CHANGE. Like an Old World rockstar, the crowd eventually lifted the man onto his back, and carried him with their collective strength, like royalty that was too pure to touch the ground.<br/><br/>Before the crowd carried him away, however, he shouted down to a dumbfounded Vladimira over the cheers and chants of the crowd with a smile on his face, “SHE’S IN THE FASHION DISTRICT!!-- A PLACE CALLED <span class=""bb-i"">‘LA PETITE NOIR’</span> OR SOMETHING! I THINK IT MEANS SEX IN FRENCH! I HOPE THAT HELPS!” Just before the crowd, carrying their lord and savior, The magnanimous Bartender, left the Bitches Brew completely deserted, the Bartender shouted back to the still completely in place Immortal Russian, “I DOUBT I’LL EVER BE RELEVANT TO YOU AGAIN, VLADIMIRA-- BUT STILL, THANK YOU!! I HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY AND A GOOD LIFE!!”<br/><br/>And then, the crowd was gone. Everyone was-- literally everyone in the Bitches Brew left to help the Bartender spread his new religion. Even Big Bertha.<br/><br/>Vladimira was completely alone, again.<br/><br/>She stared after the impromptu mob, still utterly dumbfounded. “And to think,” she muttered to herself, scooping up the ammunition she’d lain on the table, as well as looking behind the counter for any more and pocketing that, “that I’d’ve just pulled off my shirt if he’d asked. Walked around the building without it, whatever.”<br/><br/>She glanced around the empty bar, taking the chance to pilfer as much of the half decent vodka as she could fit into her rucksack. Spoils of… something. “Must’ve rolled a natural 20 on a speech check.” She paused, looking at the empty building again, “Or he did. Or we both did.”<br/><br/>She slung her now considerably heavier rucksack over her shoulder, making her way for the door. “That was definitely… something.”<br/><br/>“I don’t know, Vladimira...” Octavia leaned against the frame of the opened door cooly, “I like his points on systemized misogyny and misandry, but his lack of experience in dealing with the unique problems regarding Immortal discrimination-- especially us Immortal women-- really turned me off, you know?”<br/><br/>Raising an eyebrow, Vladimira replied, “As opposed to turning you on and making you want to bang him?” She walked through the door and leaned on the opposite side of the doorframe, “It all started with him wanting to see my chest, and then… I’m not sure. Something happened.”<br/><br/>“Wow, that’s pretty silly!” Octavia looked off in the direction the crowd marched in wistfully, “What a forward thinking, unique and completely irrelevant character.”<br/><br/>Watching the crowd stampeding off, Vladimira snickered to herself, “I get the feeling he’s going to turn up again.”<br/>“Pfft! No way!” Octavia turned to head inside, “I’d bet a million bullets no one ever hears from that guy ever again!”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">5:01 PM</span><br/><br/>Vladimira sauntered down the street with her recently acquired anti-everything rifle slung across her back. Some place she couldn’t pronounce at the moment, that was where this “Miss Castalia” was. She was mildly curious about what a Mafia family member would be doing at a French… place, of all things, but it didn’t really matter much to her right now. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">What to say, what to say?</span> She thought to herself, grumbling and shooting hostile looks at anyone who got too close. <br/><br/>She stopped in front of a building that matched the Bartender’s description, the words, <span class=""bb-i"">La Petite Morte</span> clearly visible. She stood and stared at it for a while, wishing she didn’t have to walk in there before taking a deep breath and moving for the door.<br/><br/>Lucania blinked her eyes over and over, she felt both an intense dryness and moisture that would not leave. Blinking did nothing. From where she stood, in the lobby of the French woman's... <span class=""bb-i"">business</span>... the art that she had been lead back to after her makeup was over came into focus. Everything seemed so much more fuzzy-- the painting, which before had been a beautiful mess of vibrant colors, now seemed but a dim mesh of browns. All of her being dearly hoped this sensation in her eyes wasn't permanent-- apparently they were centerpiece of the French Woman's makeover for Immortals looking to adopt a new appearance.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Contacts.</span><br/><br/>""You will adjust.""<br/><br/>""I suppose..."" The voice from behind her drew Lucania's attention to the Francophone devil, her 'makeover' complete, Lucania now awaited her Windcaller... who was... somewhere? Lucania turned to the voice, recognizing the blurry silhouette of the small lady, ""How soon, do you think?"" Lucania brought up her arm to rub her eyes and was met with another slap.<br/><br/>""No! No touching ze contacts! Your eyes still need time to recover after the treatment!""<br/><br/>Lucania’s reply bemoaning the indignation of being treated like some furry housepet was put on hold-- a new player entered the scene. With now imperfect eyes, Lucania made out the silhouette of a tall, probably muscled, black haired woman with... odd glowing goggles? Or perhaps glasses? Or maybe they were red eyes? The garb Lucania could make out seemed from out of town, but with the current dismal state of her vision, she really couldn’t tell… although, with the speed the French Woman left Lucania for the woman, she’d have bet that she was an Immortal looking for a quick disguise. It all seemed to be of little consequence to her.<br/><br/>The French Woman practically sprinted to where Vladimira was standing, suddenly all smiles, “Oui! Welcome to <span class=""bb-i"">La Petite Morte</span>! Which of our services can we offer you?”<br/><br/>“Fine!” Lucania, still rubbing a red check from across the room yelled, “You’ve got your ammo! I’ll just find my manservant on my own! Blind as a sand bat!” Grumbling, she began to feel her way around the lobby, using the wall as something of a guide.<br/><br/>Vladimira recoiled instinctively as an overly energetic French woman appeared in her face, asking her something about services and offering them. She carefully backpedaled, “Look, eh, I’m not interested in any ‘services’ right now, <span class=""bb-i"">maybe</span> later. She slowly crept back through the door with her eye on the woman. “I’m just looking for a ‘Miss Castalia’ right now, I think her name is… Lucania, or something of that nature?”<br/><br/>She looked around the room, seeing Lucania and not recognizing her, she made her way over, “Ehm, hi, you wouldn’t happen to know where I could find a ‘Lucania’ would you?”<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Anxiety?</span><br/><br/>She was loathe to admit it, but in that moment that woman approached, asking for her, Lucania couldn’t help but feel an acute anxiety tinge all her actions; her sight was already blurred beyond convenience-- all for the sake of eyes that didn’t shift through a myriad of colors the instant she felt anything! Now beyond that she found her breathing labored, her legs locked in place, and even the typically routine task of thinking became strained. She had difficulty analyzing the situation due to her overwhelming fear. She was like… a desert caribou beast in the headlights.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Had the Wings really send an assassin? In broad daylight?</span> <br/><br/>Vladimira paused, looking around the room, “I uh, I have something someone I met a good ways outside Russel wanted me to give her.” She glanced back at the French woman nervously, “She’s not going to force a makeover on me, right?”<br/><br/>“Merde! I might!” Tossing her arms up in exasperation, the French woman wandered off, muttering expletives in a language that was probably French, but not before turning in Lucania’s general direction and yelling, “She isn’t an undercover Wing, you paranoid wop-- you can spot those asshole from a kilometer away.”<br/><br/>“Perhaps <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> can,” Lucania scoffed. Still, the woman’s words did serve to put her mind at ease, even if only slightly. This person could <span class=""bb-i"">still</span> want to kill her, but private assassins were much more easily bought than Wings, and breathing a sigh of relief, Lucania tried to regain her poise. <br/><br/>“Well, you’ve found her.” Straightening herself, Lucania faced the woman with a patented confidence… only to be greeted with a slightly less version of the red bespectacled stranger. Leaning closer, Lucania squinted, gaining some clarity as her ‘new’ eyes shifted between the subtle browns of confusion and dying fear, “May I ask the name of this ‘someone?’” <br/><br/>Vladimira raised an eyebrow at the exchange. Undercover… Wing? The woman in front of her was apparently Lucania herself, which solved the problem of finding her, she supposed. “Oh, right, it was… uh, Evelyn? Evelina? Something like that? She wanted me to give you this.” <br/><br/>Slowly, with her empty other hand in plain sight, she drew out the pistol, holding it by the slide to make it clear she had no intention of using it. She nervously offered it grip first to the Mafia woman, “It was something about not really needing it but hoping it’d help keep you safe, or something.” She shifted awkwardly, “I can’t really remember what she said, sorry.”<br/><br/>Lucania was at a loss for words. “Evelina was her name.” Gently plucking the gun from Vladimira’s grip with two fingers, she very briefly considered throwing the thing across-- of course, knowing her luck, she’d damage the one thing in here she couldn’t afford to replace. Instead, she opted to looking down at the blurry thing-- it was cool, heavy and looked like some formless black letter v in her hands. Where was Evelina going that she didn’t need a gun? Why would she think she’d have any use for it? Lucania’s grip tightened, she could feel the silent frustration seething. She knew what this was.<br/><br/>Her grip loosened, she needed to remain focused. So Evelina didn’t posses the gumption say any of this in person? Well then, it was probably for the best, Lucania didn’t need <span class=""bb-i"">another</span> coward in her life. Looking back to Vladimira, she let the gun slip from her fingers and fall to the ground. “And who are you to her?”<br/><br/>“An acquaintance, I suppose?” Vladimira replied, “She was fighting a Hollow, she looked like she could’ve done with some help, so... I helped.” She shrugged helplessly, “All I know is she was going somewhere, where exactly I don’t know, it was something to do medical… stuff, I believe.”<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Medical stuff?</span><br/><br/>With narrowed eyes, Lucania tilted her head, “Medical stuff? You mean to tell me there was a medical emergency so pressing she couldn’t even be asked to come and say goodbye? And what-- it obviously wasn’t a medical emergency <span class=""bb-i"">there</span>, lest you’d be far more specific about it... ” Lucania frowned, “I thought she wanted to pursue something…” Lucania rolled her eyes, “What kind of loser sends someone they just met-- while apparently fighting a hollow-- to break up for them?”<br/><br/>Vladimira shrugged, “I don’t know.” She looked at Lucania in mild concern, this wasn’t what she’d wanted to happen. She should’ve thought this through more before barging in and running her mouth with the first thing that came to mind. Perhaps the truth- or some derivative of it- might’ve been the best course of action after all. “I don’t know what was between you two,” she began before sighing helplessly, “all I know is that she wanted me to give that to you, and that she had somewhere she needed to go. There was a Hollow, I helped kill it, she asked me if I could do a favor, beyond that, I can’t say.”<br/><br/>“I apologize.” Lucania relaxed her posture a bit, heat brained from her face as frustration and aggression became annoyance and resignation, she was probably looking too far into it. “Alright, the point is, ‘she’s gone.’ No point in shooting the messenger.” She fished around in her purse for a cigarette and lighter, her eyes shooting to Vladimiras, “And what is the name of that messenger, if you don’t mind my asking? You already know mine.”<br/><br/>“Vladimira, Vladimira Kovalik.” She replied, heaving an internal sigh of relief as Lucania relaxed, at least she wasn’t likely to have her killed now. She wasn’t sure if she’d be able to make it out of the city with the Mafia after her skin. Quirking an eyebrow, she continued, “Why do you ask?”<br/><br/>“No reason.” Lucania smiled cheerfully, “Call me Old Worldly, but I think names carry an importance, both for oneself and one’s family…” Lucania trailed off, following a thought, before returning to the conversation a few seconds later, “Yours in particular, for instance! Vladimira, carries with it some sense of Russia’s Old World strength! And Kovalik…” <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Kovalik? That… sounds quite familiar, actually…</span><br/><br/>“Actually Vladimira, speaking of names-- does the name Andrei Kovalik mean anything to you?”<br/><br/>Vladimira started, her attention riveting on Lucania in a fraction of a second. “It. Does.” She stated evenly, showing no emotion, “What about him?” Her mind turned, if this really was Andrei… she thought he was <span class=""bb-i"">dead</span>, eaten by some angry thing in the desert, or a bleached skeleton grimacing into the sun, the thought that he might be alive… she wasn’t sure if she’d rather punch him in the face, or hug him. Maybe both. Keeping her voice even, she continued, “If he’s the one I’m thinking of, he’s my brother.”<br/><br/>“Ha!” Lucania clasped her hands together, “<span class=""bb-i"">You’re</span> the Tsar’s sister? He never mentioned a sister!” Lucania shook her head, “I should have seen the family resemblance earlier!” She squinted, “Although I will admit my vision isn’t it’s greatest right now-- but as I look closer they’re becoming more and more apparent. What a small world we live in…” <br/><br/>Although she might not go so far as to label him as a ‘friend,’ Andrei ‘The Tsar’ Kovalik was something of a powerhouse in the city of Wolfwater. He was the leader of Moscow Echo, a gang-- or as he often corrected her an <span class=""bb-i"">organization</span>-- out of the Wolfwater city-state. She considered the distinction a moot one, in a similar vein as the difference between ‘Castalia gang’ and ‘Castalia crime family.’ Still, she tended to abide by the preference, as it was of the lesser of the man’s numerous eccentricities-- unless she wanted to fluster him. <br/><br/>Moscow Echo specialized in “completely legal” arms dealing and “private” protection, things the Castalia family needed deary as found themselves expanding into the well-oiled Wolfwater walls, under her direction. The deals she brokered with Andrei eventually gave birth to the Wintergold Conglomorate-- an “above-board” subset of both <span class=""bb-s"">gangs</span> <span class=""bb-i"">organizations and families</span>, designed specifically for the pursuit of anything in Wolfwater that might turn a profit to both parent <span class=""bb-s"">gangs</span> <span class=""bb-i"">organizations and families</span> that dealt in their combined strengths. Lucania considered the alliance and expansion into Wolfwater one of her proudest achievements, no doubt because it was one made entirely on <span class=""bb-i"">her own.</span> <br/><br/>Wintergold was <span class=""bb-i"">hers.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">... Well… more or less… it was… <span class=""bb-b"">half</span> hers, with Andrei as an equal business partner.</span><br/><br/>Which, still, that was more than any Castalia had achieved on their own in decades. Suffice to say, while she might not have considered the lanky, Russia-obsessed weirdo a <span class=""bb-i"">friend</span>, she definitely considered him a <span class=""bb-i"">comrade</span>. <br/><br/>Which possibly marked the first Italian-Russian alliance in history, as far as she could think of.<br/><br/>“Hmm,” Lucania snapped from her thoughts with the lighting of her cigarette, “So, Vladimira, apparently Moscow Echo’s Tsar’s big sister; Is the obsession with Old World Russian paraphernalia genetic? Or is he just eccentric?”<br/><br/>Vladimira’s mouth hung open, “He’s the… the <span class=""bb-i"">what</span>? I thought he’d died years ago! Some skeleton in the sands or whatever. You’re telling me he’s the head of a criminal organization and…” she trailed off, asking after a while, “You know him?” as an afterthought, she added in a slightly embarrassed tone, “And I have no idea, but it’d seem the former. Father collects Russian literature, what little of it there is, mother made Russian styled jewelry, and I’m packing a small Russian arsenal.” She blushed slightly, “O боже, it is genetic.”<br/><br/>“Wait, Russians wear jewelry?” Lucania blurted out, “I mean, I knew Russian fashion wasn’t completely barren! The first time I met Andrei I work a statuesque Soviet dress-- and then he asked me how much I’d sell it for-- but I didn’t know Russia was known for its… Jewelry… that’s interesting…” She shrugged, “Regardless, I do know Andrei! He’s a sweetheart, despite practically ruling Wolfwater. We’re partners in a joint business venture down there-- you should look him up sometime, I’m sure he’d be happy to see you.” <br/><br/>Vladimira raised an eyebrow, “Yes, there <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> such a thing as Russian jewelry, even in Russia wasn’t exactly known for it, my mother would’ve been able to tell you more. I know more about their weapons.” She was silent for a little while as she processed the information Lucania had given her. “I think I’d like that…” she murmured, “I mean, I’d like to see him, then probably punch him in the face, then probably hug him.” She leaned against a wall, watching the opposite wall in what seemed to be fascination, “To think the personable slacker has an entire criminal organization now. Makes me wonder what the hell I’ve been doing hiding in a hole this whole time.” She looked over to Lucania, “You wouldn’t happen to be looking for anyone to follow you around and be scary, at least until you next hit Wolfwater, would you?”<br/><br/>“Wow,” Lucania’s eyes betrayed her feelings of being impressed, as she tried to maintain a neutral tone, “Straightforward <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> perceptive. How could you even know that?” Her face became serious, “I suppose I am looking for someone like that… Do you have any qualms with killing people?”<br/><br/>Vladimira raised her eyebrow again, “With a few exceptions, such as myself, no. What exactly would be the circumstances of this potentially needing to kill people?”<br/><br/>“Oh you know, the usual; Mindless bandits looking to make the fortune of a lifetime, Wings looking for a promotion in killing a fugitive, bigoted Immortal hating vigilantes, normal crime hating vigilantes, someone looking for some type of revenge, hits put on me by people in public office, or rival gangs, or my OWN gang…” She sighed, counting by holding up fingers for each threat, “The list goes on an on! Honestly, not asking too many questions about who might be trying to kill me is always a bonus. I imagine my new appearance won’t stop all the assassination attempts…” Rolling her eyes, she finished, “Que sera sera, I suppose. Although I must ask why you seek to follow me until <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> reach Wolfwater? You’ve got more weapons with you now than I’ve ever touched in my life, I don’t doubt your capability-- why follow me? The pay?”<br/><br/>Vladimira shrugged, “Honestly I’m not too concerned. They’re all going to be using steel weapons I’ll bet, and, well, it’s a lot harder to attack someone when your own weapon has turned itself around and is buried in your throat. Another <span class=""bb-i"">excellent</span> way to avoid death by gunshot wounds: body armor.”<br/><br/>She pushed herself off from the wall, looking directly at Lucania, “Honestly? If you have money that’s great, but all I’d be doing otherwise is sitting in a hole and telling myself I ought to do something, like head to Wolfwater. The truth is, I’m <span class=""bb-b"">bored</span>.”<br/><br/>“Bored…?” Lucania’s hand came to her cheek as she parroted the word back to herself. Ennui? Was that all it took to drive a person to suicidal lengths? To seek some meaning within a life felt wasted? Of course, Vladimira also wanted to see her brother-- she could be overthinking it, perhaps she just needed more time to steel herself for the encounter? Either way, she doubted that when she <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> eventually show up in Wolfwater Andrei would be happy to learn that she’d met his sister, only to leave her in Russel City.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Comrade of my comrade or something like that.</span><br/><br/>“I can empathize.” Lucania returned Vladimira’s gaze, “Okay, yes, absolutely! ¿Por Que No?” She walked over to Vladimira, initiating a handshake, “Once our Windcaller shows up, we’ll get out of here.” <br/><br/><font color=""#333333""><span class=""bb-i"">Can you not feel their approach.</span></font><br/><br/>On the wall, between ridiculous impressionist paintings, an equally post-post-modern clock struck told counted down another minute.

167,The Dust,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-05-22 16:50:00,bobert778,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><span class=""bb-b"">4:32pm</span><br/><br/>Ivan grumbled, peering down the muddied alleyway to see a pair of dirt caked boots up against a wall, a familiar plastic flower adorning the side of each. Ivan had come here after having run out of options, unable to find any other dealers out on the street no doubt due to the sky water. Unfortunately this left him with 'Lily' as she liked to call herself, the only dealer in Russell who Ivan personally knew. Knowing her, Ivan had been right to guess that she'd be stubborn enough to be outside still trying to sell in this weather. <br/><br/>She sold Mary J., and her boss, Noah, was the sole provider of it in Russell City since it was hard for anyone to grow the stuff outside of Gaen territory. While Lily herself wasn't that bad a person she was very loyal to her boss, Noah, and Noah wasn't too fond of Ivan considering what had happened last time he'd been in Russell. It had been a stupid set of circumstances, and it had ended with Ivan being practically robbed; left without bullets or herb. Not to be made a fool of, Ivan managed to find the bastard's home and blow a hole in one of his walls. Then he'd simply stolen what he believed he was entitled to, and disappeared from Russell for a few years. While the idea of his bullets eventually going into Noah's pocket made him regret needing to buy from here, Ivan wanted to have something other than that fungus he'd picked up in Isolone for the purpose of mixing things up. It had also been a long while since he'd had the herb, and seeing Lily again would be a bit of a bonus.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Oy, Lily</font>,"" Ivan called out, walking down the alley towards the pair of boots. Silently he prayed it was her, and not some random person who was hanging out in the same alley she'd always occupied.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#ec008c"">Rag-man?</font>"" was the response Ivan got back, the still familiar but now older voice sounding somewhat startled as Ivan watched her boots shift slightly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a36209"">So it is her,</font></span> Ivan thought to himself, recalling the nickname she'd given him the first time they'd met. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Yeah, it's me</font>,"" Ivan replied, drawing closer to find she was standing underneath some sort of overhang to keep dry. Feeling somewhat nostalgic, Ivan gave an amused huff as he let himself fall into the side of the building, leaning only a short distance away from Lily. Now that he was closer, Ivan could see that her clothing still had a fair amount of dust and dirt on it indicating that she was relatively dry, though her head was completely invisible meaning she'd either gotten better at keeping clean, or she'd been caught out in the sky water for long enough to wash away what was on her face. She was still fairly young, and though now was probably in her early twenties she hadn't visibly grown or changed much. She was incredibly thin, almost unhealthily so, and hardly had any curves which she always tried to cover up with baggier clothing. Sure she was a bit taller now, but that wasn't saying much considering Ivan still had to look down a fair bit to meet where he assumed her face was. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#ec008c"">Rag-man, s'been too long</font>,"" Lily laughed, the faint outline of her arm lifting up so that Ivan could meet her with a fist bump. ""<font color=""#ec008c"">Man, last I 'eard of you Noah was screamin' 'is 'ead off 'bout wannin' ta put 'is boot up yer ass- that was years ago, I 'aven't 'eard from ya since. Yu just up an' disappeared</font>,"" she then went on to say, near the end sounding like she was trying to scold Ivan almost as if he were a misbehaved child. The two of them were what you could have called friends, one of few Ivan held in this world, but their friendship was almost wholly centered on getting too high to speak which made things a little hollow.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">It's nice to see you too Lily</font>,"" Ivan replied, chuckling a little before continuing. ""<font color=""#a36209"">And yeah, I know Noah is probably still mad but one of his boy practically mugged me- I wasn't gonna take that. He probably just told you I robbed 'im though</font>,"" he then remarked, sounding somewhat grim. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#ec008c"">Rings a bell</font>,"" Lily told him, sounding somewhat thoughtful as the two of them were left in a somewhat awkward silence.<br/><br/>Clearing his throat, Ivan broke the quiet before he reached into the pocket on his vest to retrieve all the bullets he had left. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Hey, uh, how much will this get me?</font>"" he asked, holding out the fistful of bullets towards Lily. There were only three of them left, each one a different size with the largest belonging to what must have been a fairly heavy caliber gun. How much they were worth Ivan didn't really know, but he trusted Lily enough to give him a fair deal.<br/><br/>Lily let out a short puff of air from her nose, something she always did when cracking a smile, before she grabbed the bullets from Ivan's palm and examined each before putting them in her pocket. ""<font color=""#ec008c"">'S'at the real reason ye came ta see me?</font>"" she asked, her words sounding heavier compared to before. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">When it eventually crossed my mind, I'd have come by to say hello regardless. You're the only person out in this weather still selling shit though so it's a two birds, one stone kinda thing</font>,"" Ivan explained, trying to sound as sincere as he could. While it was for the most part true, he'd all but forgotten Lily up until he'd remembered her as his last option. She didn't say anything, being silent as she reached inside her jacket and pulled out a somewhat dirty clump of plastic that no doubt contained a gram or two of weed. Ivan sighed, not yet accepting the little package as he crossed his arms somewhat sternly. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Lily, I know you're not lookin' at me. I can't see yer head right now but I know you ain't lookin'.  I want you to know that at any other time, this would have been a better reunion but believe it or not for once I have somewhere I have to go</font>,"" Ivan stated, his voice having adopted a far more serious tone. This caused Lily to stir, her body shifting to better face Ivan indicating that'd he had her attention. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">I know what happened to make the sky cry like it is- I saw it, and I know the man who said he knows where the person responsible is. Things get a bit complicated, and I'm not sure I want to get mixed up into it but it has to do with the immortals. I need to know more; I feel like it's a responsibility I need to take care of, ya know?</font>"" Ivan explained, his words very stern as he felt almost like he were giving a lecture. <br/><br/>Lily laughed, it sounding genuine enough even though it still carried a dampened undertone. ""<font color=""#ec008c"">Jus' take yer weed 'nd go, Rag-man. The desert's callin' yer name</font>,"" she sighed, clenching the clump of plastic in her hand so she could give Ivan a light punch in the arm. When her fist connected she opened her palm, and Ivan unfolded his arms to catch the little nugget before it could hit the ground. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">If we're both still alive, I'll see you in another time. Stay safe</font>,"" Ivan told Lily, lifting a muddied arm to give her a quick pat on the shoulder before removing his backpack so he could put away his newest ray of sunshine. It felt even more unpleasant than normal now that he was wet, and Ivan shuddered as he put his pack back on. Unhappily he rolled his shoulders a few times, trying to rid of the sensation that removing his pack always brought about.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#a36209"">Enjoy the sky water</font>,"" Ivan huffed, breathing deeply as he turned away with one final wave of his hand. As he left the alleyway, Ivan took another look around the street he'd emerged onto before retrieving his compass again. After having direction once more, the lone man began trudging through the muddied streets towards the southern exit of the city. On his way, Ivan began to notice the streets beginning to become more active: people shouting, throwing bottles, and a few times Ivan had needed to rush off the street to avoid an oncoming vehicle. There was an air of panic in the voices he heard, and Ivan muttered a short prayer in hopes that whatever was happening people would be alright.<br/><br/>Eventually, Ivan reached the outskirts of the city and pocketed his compass, standing tall as he felt the water begin working it's chill into his bones. ""<font color=""#a36209"">I better get somewhere dry before nightfall</font>,"" he breathed, speaking to himself as he slowly raised his arms. Ivan began walking, the mud around him bubbling in protest as it began to get dragged along behind him. Slowly Ivan picked up his pace, lifting his arms further as the ground beneath him shifted and began to try climbing up his legs each time they touched the ground. Then, with the built up momentum Ivan gave a short leap, snapping his arms upward as a surge of mud rose up to envelope his lower body. His legs completely encased, Ivan leaned forward as the rolling mound carried him away from Russell city. Underneath his hood Ivan gave a smirk, feeling quite proud of himself as his focused his efforts on keeping a steady pace. Traveling like this in no way hid his immortal status, but it was far faster than walking or gliding and Ivan had enough practice that he could keep it up all night if he had to. Once more, Ivan retrieved his compass, adjusting his course to a more South-west direction as he referenced the map he held in his head. ""<font color=""#a36209"">Isolone</font>,"" he huffed, a smirk on his face as once more his focus fell on the shifting earth beneath him.</div>"

Moon is gone. Though the night's a pretty dark, it's more like the new cycle of a moon. There's illumination, stars, etc. So dark, but not a wall of pitch black darkness.

A conglomerate of different societies and coalitions formed together under one man, though his name has not be provided for our knowledge. This newly arisen force, The Forsaken, moved to protect themselves, they were deemed unfit for survival by the current rulers of the world before The Fall. It is said that many of these people were nothing simpler than farmers, housewives, librarians, and the like. Common, everyday people, the tiny gears that spin and churn within the deepest inner workings of a functioning society. Like us, they found their way underground into a bunker to wait out the devastation that followed days after. Though there methods for doing so were less than peaceful. Looking to achieve only survival from their place on the bottom rungs of the social hierarchy, the descendants of these people have greatly changed the previous orientation of purpose.<br/><br/>The Forsaken Order we know today are nothing short of barbaric raiders. Their society is but the tiniest inklings of social order scraped together into a patchwork system. They are ruled by one man, a tyrant, who proves himself capable of leadership by challenging the former. This challenge will always result in death of one of the participates, and perhaps any audience that strays too closely. Upon victory, the new King may choose to reinstate new chiefs. This order of replacement is usually carried out by executing the previous chiefs.<br/><br/>Despite their lack of civility and social structure; they do have apt economic practices, and a fearsome military. They achieve great economic stability through their many mines located up and down along the western coast. In fact, all of their settlements have at least a single mine; all except Forbes, which is their trading hub. Though trading with The Forsaken Order is always a risky business, the ample supply of available metals makes it necessity. The threat of being attacked is high, most common from raiding parties or slavers. The act of killing one another is not taboo in their society, and is encouraged to keep the people strong. Disputes are settled by the blade, from anything to insults to looking at someone wrongly.<br/><br/>The Forsaken is a brutish and deadly society to find oneself living among, especially with every man, woman, and child taught to fight. Anyone is subject to gladiatorial combat, unrestricted by gender or age, albeit a child who has not reached their tenth year may not participate, however they may elect an appropriate stand-in to fight for them. Loss of a challenge does not always result in death, one could be maimed or crippled. Regardless of the outcome, if one does not achieve death, the loser is sentenced two years in the mines, and the victory obtains all their possessions. Additionally the victor may choose to take the loser's job, adopt their children, or even the very clothes on their back at the moment of defeat. Children who are not adopted and find themselves without parents become street urchins, as a child underneath his tenth year may not own anything he cannot carry.<br/><br/>At anytime a person may be subject to join their army, The Legion. Most go willingly, like blood thirsty mongrels ready for a fight. Those who refused can be executed, or sent to the mines, it is the decision of the chief overseeing the draft. Technically they do not have a standing military force, when no longer needed the soldiers return to their daily lives. Though there are paying jobs that cover the need for patrols, and the King's person force of Legionnaires, The Soulless, which act as the royal guard, and police force. The largest number of Soulless reside within Ironhold, where the King himself reigns.</font><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Motum Diversum"" type=""button"">Motum Diversum [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/euEx3mv.png""/></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">Written and Compiled by A.R.K</font></div><br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite""> The Mobiles descend from a man known simply as Mark. When the great steel doors parted, it was he who led the people around him out into the new world. He was one of the protected, before the fall, he ran an empire based solely on the purpose of moving by the power of one's own feet, for any purpose. The only exception to this was long distance travel, but Mark did not deal in that. No, as he believed in the former world, so he did in the new. He was the first to suggest leaving, trying to make a home out of this new hostile wasteland. It is rumored that when questioned why, he turned to his people, his smile glinting in the bright light of the new world as he paused upon the threshold of the known, and unknown, and spoke the prophetic words of: ""Just Do It"".<br/><br/>Years afterwards Mark and his followers had established a foundation for Motum Diversum. More than one of the survivors had a skill with cloth and leathers, which became one of their main sources of trade with the many other factions rising up in Dust. Though Mark and his followers had a broad range of skillsets, all of which were used to found the trade empire we have today, spanning central Dust. Russel City remains the capital of Motum Diversum, and the largest trade city on the island. Motum Diversum follows nearly all of the cultural teachings of the old world, including Capitalism. A society where one's own hands determine their fate and prosperity.<br/><br/>The Winged Guardians patrol through the streets of the cities, ensuring against unjust actions and prejudice. They are a widely accepting empire, and promote that each individual find their own way through success, religion, and anything in the like. The leader of this faction is known as the Executive Officer, and the governmental system maintains its function through is exclusively unmatched system of trade. It provides the most business, employing many skill sets, and it host to a number of self-controlled, and hired caravans. Though one is more than welcome to function independently, it's a hard bargain against the government's guarantees of safe arrival and replacement of lost goods.<br/><br/>Additionally, Motum Diversum managed to made a land grab along the southern coastline, more specifically, the city of Serenity. There, a government owned and operated hydroelectric power dam is the only source of substantial power, which the Executive Officer sells fervently across the island, making Motum Diversum the wealthiest and most profitable faction. Additionally they have the longest, lit tunnel system reaching from Serenity to Aspin. It is also relatively safe, though travel through tunnels is always done at ones own risk. These tunnels provide the fast movement of items between the territories it touches, and a nearly impervious to a raid. This system is also provided to The Forsaken Order, though there is no tunnel that spans across their border. This deal provides quite beneficial to Motum Diversum, cheap metals, and leverage over the tribe itself.<br/><br/>Motum Diversum is allied with the Gaens, who are more scientifically focused than anything else. Provisions of power and tunnel systems prove beneficial to both, more so to Motum Diversum who receives the best in medical supplies and other chemically produced goods. Motum Diversum also has a trade agreement between themselves and Aqueous, power for water. Providing power to their pumps results in greater efficiency, which means more water.<br/><br/>Motum Diversum's leaders are appointed by the previous Executive Officer, or in cases where the Executive Officer is deceased before appointment, through descending rank of the governmental company. Impeachment of a Executive Officer requires the unanimous vote of all other Executives, who in turn are not allowed to meet in secret. The Executive Order of Impeachment can be overturned by public opinion, which is requested through a draft of signatures to hold a public court. These other executives are; but not limited too; The Executive of Security, Trade, Provisions, Power, and Maintenance, and fall underneath the Executive Officer in rank.<br/><br/>Motum Diversum is perhaps the most well established, structured society, and have an impressive degree of territorial security.</font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Gaens"" type=""button"">The Gaens [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/8btlicY.png""/></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">Written and Compiled by A.R.K</font></div><br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite""> This society is devoted wholly into the pursuit of knowledge, though they do dabble in a good amount of agriculture. These scientists did not descent from bunker survivors. Rather, their ancestors knew about The Fall before anyone else had the slightest ideal of impending doom. The old world had an institution in place, dealing with space and its exploration. One branch of this organization adapted space technology to underwater environments. This particular place of refuge was located deep beneath the ocean's surface, and with difficulty, survived The Fall. Though considering the ratio of bunkers to the ark, it did considerable well. Many bunkers failed or were destroyed.<br/><br/>This, and all other terminal systems are maintained by these Gaens. This technology is provided across the land, publicly, and is maintained by independent users. The Gaens hardly ever travel, and outsource their protection from Motum Diversum, most scientists choosing never to leave their facilities, which are state of the art. Their structures were built of the grueling process of deconstructing what was left of the Ark. Some parts hard to be fabricated, but their capital of Aspin is a sound infrastructure of old world building methods. They have independent power sources, but lack in comparison to that provided by Motum Diversum.<br/><br/>The society of the Gaens are not like the others, yet there are no reports of civil unrest or infighting. They are led by ""The Professor"", who oversees all of the functions of the Gaens. The Professor employs as many associates as needed, who then employ assistants, who then employ their own staff, of varying titles. The Gaens are the most adapt producers of clinical supplies, crude fuels, and agricultural provisions. Without them, much of the new world's technology and resources would be unavailable for some time yet.<br/><br/>Though many fruit and vegetable bearing flora exist within Dust, The Gaens are the only ones with actually fertile land, allowing them to grow a substantial amount of varied crops. It is unknown how this is possible, what technology powers it, or if the amount of fertile land will ever increase. Many look in envy upon these two stretches of unique land, prompting the Gaens to buy protection. </font><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Edenites"" type=""button"">The Edenites [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/gXzcCvK.png""/></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">Written and Compiled by A.R.K</font></div><br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite""> Next to nothing is known about the Edenites. Only scraps of information are available. Pre-fall they were a zealous religious group, that managed to claim a bunker for themselves. Now they live in Northwest Dust in seclusion, any attempts at contact are met with acts of violence, or the individuals disappearing altogether. They do purchase water from Aqueous, though it is unknown how. They do not however, purchase power from Motum Diversum.<br/><br/>They are very secretive, and very protective of those secrets. Even the Handymen of Aqueous do not speak of what their lands are like. At the right time, and place, an Edenite might be seen, wearing a white cowl and matching robes. Though their activity or status is unknown, most are simply scene walking, somewhere. It is recommended to avoid the Edenite border at all costs, which is marked every quarter mile by a pure white spike in the earth, rising about six feet tall.</font> <br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Aqueous"" type=""button"">The Aqueous [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/uPiF1dG.png""/></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">Written and Compiled by A.R.K</font></div><br/><font color=""navajowhite"">Aqueous is a society that draws heavily from old world, pacific asian elements. The people of Aqueous descent from a mixed race of pre-fall politicians and foreign delegates. Though the people themselves are not in total likeness to the old world's race of asians, they do however have a general trend of almond shaped eyes and paler skin tones, though in this world is almost unavoidable to achieve some form of tan. They are perhaps the only society to still actively use their bunker, which is rumored to be quite extensive. The Aqueous are overseen by a council, in which a head councilmen presides over. Though Head of the Council, this is merely a status, and only the Head of Council may appoint another Head. The Head has only a set of minor powers other council members do not; the ability to elect a new head, critical information or items, and the ability to break a tied vote during council. The Head does not vote with the regular council members.<br/><br/>The Society itself is based on a value of tradition and honor, where children follow their parent's footsteps, and dishonor is an excuse for one's life to end, or be challenged. Unlike the Forsaken, these challenges of honor are ceremonial. A time is set after the challenge, where anyone may attend. The fight is done to the tempo of musical drums, and presided over a member of the council. These are done with non lethal swords, and upon completion the victor restores, or retains honor for their family. The loser may choose to take their own life, and restore honor to their family, or live a life of shame in the eyes of their family. One who is dishonored is akin to a common street bum, they lose status and rank within the family and may meet discrimination and prejudice in daily life.<br/><br/>The Aqueous are also known for their military, though through technique rather than size. A member of any family, may be trained under family guidelines. They then may apply for The Noblesse,. The Noblesse duties fall everywhere from enforcer, to public agent, to police like duties. The Noblesse fall under the command of appointed generals,  but can be overridden by councilmembers, who can only be overridden by The Head, and only temporarily. The result of any commands being overridden open the subject up to debate and speculation. <br/><br/>The Aqueous also have the only working supply of water, a reservoir deep within the earth the mountain that is fed by oceanic waters. The saltwater is processed into freshwater and piped across Dust. Because of the agreement between Motum Diversum and Aqueous, buying a supply of water for a settlement is not very expensive, and is done with relative ease. Aqueous is the only faction able to cross over any territory lines with protection provided by the respective faction's leader, but only to maintain water lines. They are the only known faction to be among the Edenites and return. Though they are tight lipped over what happens there.</font> <br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div></div><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Aqueon Religion"" type=""button"">Aqueon Religion [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""steelblue""><div class=""bb-h1"">Aqueon Religion</div></font></span></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lime"">Written and Compiled by A.R.K</font></div><br/><div class=""bb-right""><font color=""#00aeef"">Special Thanks to <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a> for writing this article.</font></div><br/>After the Fall, what remained of the eastern pacific was, generally speaking, a confederation of wealthy individuals with a vague understanding of a religion that had been tertiary to them for most of their lives. Religion provides a certain comfort, and those who could afford to survive the end of the world as they knew it, spent a significant time returning to the religions of their homelands. The 30 years spent in the bunkers saw a rise in the reliance and understanding of those beliefs, and those who knew more; who preserved documents, who could recreate recall the proper rites and rituals, those who could teach it, or at least what an imperfect and privileged memory could  tell of it. Basically, they saw themselves emerging as leaders in the world of Dust.  <br/><br/>The bunkers in what is now the Aqueous region quickly formed tribes based on ethnic lines, splitting between the Korean north, the Central Asian south, and the Japanese central region. Over 300 years they became united over shared resources, negotiations, the rise of other nations, tradition, and, the cross pollination of their religions.<br/><br/>Today, this religion is known as Shengriantō. <br/><br/>Shengriantō is a fusion between the Old World religions of Taoism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Tengriism, and Shinto with heavy ethical-sociopolitical teachings being derived from Confucianism and the ways of Ancient Japan. Founded officially in 2105, Shengriantō has a focus on maintaining honor, following the traditions of your bloodline and country, and ancestor worship. Shengriantō believes enlightenment can be achieved through particular the cultivation of an honorable life basically 'picking up from where your ancestors left off' and as such has a heavy emphasis on the importance of the family, both through blood and oath. This stance rests on the belief that human beings are teachable, improvable, and perfectible through personal and communal endeavor. <br/><br/>From it's Buddhist parents, it derives that the ultimate goal is to reach transcendence, not by elevating oneself to the status of the gods (the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span>, and <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span>). But instead, by living in harmony with the gods, nature, and others you can achieve immortality for your consciousness (<span class=""bb-i"">shen</span>) practically, by going about a ""right way of living."" In Shengriantō, there is no morality and ethics separated into 'right' and 'wrong,' instead, there is what is honorable, and dishonorable. By living an honorable life, your <span class=""bb-i"">shen </span>achieves immortality through those you touch.<br/><br/>In this life, while living honorably, we must also achieve feng shui with others (through shared traditions and oaths), with nature (through active rituals), and the gods, through worship-- One must only allign themselves with one group of the gods-- the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span> (those gods who represent perseverance and creation) <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span> (those who represent power and destruction) and the <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span> (those who represent intelligence and rebirth). Asking for the favor of gods outside of your chosen pantheon is seen as one of the most dishonorable acts one can make, and while those who worship a pantheon that is not your own are not considered enemies, you are to consider those who share your own pantheon family. If a homeless man were to come to your home and ask for food and shelter, and he shared your pantheon, it would be considered as dishonorable as switching pantheons altogether.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Breakdown by region:</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Northern Aqueons (descended from Old World Koreans) follow Shengriantō for it's ethical and philosophical virtue, and tend not to align themselves with the gods</li><li>Central Aqueons (descended from Old World Japanese) have waning or casual faith in Shengriantō and tend to worship the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span></li><li>Southern Aqueons (descended from Old World Central Asians) practice Shengriantō rigorously and worship the <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span> and the <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span></li></ul></div></div></div></div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""History"" type=""button"">History [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Fall"" type=""button"">The Fall [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""lime"">Entry Date:</font><font color=""khaki""> 1/1/2035 </font><br/><font color=""lime"">Subject:</font><font color=""red""> &lt;#%$)_(!@#$?&gt;</font><br/><font color=""lime"">From:</font><font color=""khaki""> ISCE </font><br/><font color=""lime"">To: </font><font color=""red"">&lt;%@#)$&gt;</font><br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">It wasn't our fault this time. This record exists for the sole purpose of shedding light on the unfortunate event that is about to befall us, should anybody remain hereafter; if you are reading this, then you are all that's left. But this was not our fault, humankind did not do this. Maybe it was fate, destiny. The work of god, trying to wipe the slate clean, to see if the little germ in his great cosmic experiment was worth nurturing, is worthy of survival. Some speculate that this... this thing, was sent by another race somewhere from deep within the universe, known or not. But it was not, our, fault. This testimony alone serves to provide trial and judgment for humanity. Perhaps indirectly we caused this, through our multitudes of radio waves echoing out into what many feel is empty space. Maybe our constructs, our satellites, rockets, or debris caused some kind of... involvement. But I swear on my final moments; We are not guilty. <br/><br/>January 1st, 2035: International Space Communications and Exploration had revealed findings previously hidden from the public to media stations across the globe; simultaneously broadcasting on every channel, in every country with the capability of seeing it. Classified Subject, The Orb, was on a collision course with Earth. Previous attempts to shatter the object, minimize planetary damage, proved completely ineffective. This could be just an unfortunate coincidence of the universe, but the object consisted of a material impervious to everything that had been thrown at it. It is perfectly round, and dark as night, without an imperfection to be seen upon its surface. We don't know what it is, we don't know why it's come to end us; but worst of all, we don't know how to stop it.<br/><br/>In roughly a month's time, The Orb will cause a total eclipse as it slingshots around the sun, picking up enough speed to shift mercury out of orbital alignment as it passes. Roughly twenty minutes later, the object will collide with earth, ending humankind as we know it. The object is projected to impact in central Canada, evacuations are already in place. There is a chance that the earth won't break apart, but even that isn't enough to have hope. Should the small chance of the Earth remaining intact come to pass, global devastation will still occur through natural phenomena. The entire continent of North America will break apart, Tsunamis will wash the earth </font><font color=""red"">&lt;#@$_#$)&gt;</font><font color=""lightcyan"">[Clean of our Sins]</font><font color=""red"">&lt;)_#@&gt;</font>,<font color=""khaki""> An ice age will begin</font><font color=""red""> &lt;!@#&gt;</font><font color=""lightcyan"">[Freezing the Demons of Society]</font><font color=""red"">&lt;#%#@&gt; &lt;&lt;3xc::Error::Document Corrupted.&gt;&gt;</font><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;&lt;Rebuilding Document...&gt;&gt;<br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;...5%</span><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;...33%</span><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;...67%</span><br/>&lt;&lt;Finalizing&gt;&gt;<br/>&lt;&lt;Success.&gt;&gt;</font><br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">And when the Earth thaws there will be nothing left but a wasteland, of desert, rock, and salt water.

I don't have much time, the cars will be here soon. I'm being relocated to a shelter, specifically for important people. I would let as many in as our supplies would support, but unfortunately that's not my decision. The underground bunkers exist only in the wealthier countries, and they are filling up quickly with... specific individuals. Engineers, scientists, athletes, superstars. There is no room for the common man, only those with status and money apparently. There is widespread looting and violence. Reports from the United Kingdom came in, armed farmers took a bunker by force and closed it. It was a massacre. There are ten days left, it will be a day when all of the Earth stands still, to watch, as we die.<br/><br/>Every hour the object continues to increase dramatically in speed, it seems so far that the predicted calculations are correct. In a few days it will enter our system, passing by us harmlessly until it reaches the Sun, where it will come back for us. There is a cult forming, calling themselves the Edenites, they preach of The Orb as if it were a god come to deliver us from sin. They're crazy, the lot of them. Ironic though, they choose to dress in all white, instead of black. The orb is black, why would they pick white? What compels them to worship this object of destruction? Can they not see reason?

The object approached final velocity as it slingshot around the sun. What the scientists of old did not predict though; as the object passed by Saturn it shifted course erratically, passing through Saturn's rings. As a result, chunks of debris collided with our moon with such velocity that it actually slowed down. Coastal counties experience tidal phenomena but with focus turned towards The Orb, the reports were not widely known. Anyways. The total eclipse caused was not from the object itself, but from the moon. Rather, the object collided with the moon. Whether the object itself is sentient, or the reason for it's presence is or not, the moon was not a calculated factor.<br/><br/>This may be the sole reason the Earth did not shatter, though it did affect us dramatically, almost as dramatic as the object itself. All these unnatural forces created an entirely new world, Old Earth will forever be but a memory. This explains why there is no moon in the night sky. The frequent meteor rains are from debris orbiting our planet and being pulled in. This debris does contain some of the same properties as the object, but for unknown reasons. <br/><br/>As The Orb crashed into most of central Canada, the immense force of it entering our atmosphere wreaked havoc on our Ozone Layer. That, and coupled with the plethora of natural disasters, the following wave of fire, the ice age induced by thick clouds of dust shrouding our planet; are all plausible events that have lead up to the world today. Rock, desert, barren wastelands. Most of the Earth was covered in trees and greenery, hard to believe right? <br/><br/>The Northern United States broke a part broke a part as a result of the collision, you are located on one of these fragments. The World is entirely reformed, even the fault lines appear to be shifted, but that may be faulty equipment. I wouldn't attempt to weld a boat together, ocean sensors are picking up a lot of activity. Sonar blasts are systematically destroying my aquatic equipment, whatever is down there is highly intelligent. You have you warning.<br/><br/>The state of things still needs much explaining, but I can tell you this. For Unknown reasons the object as diminished greatly in size, it probably has the circumference of a large island now, though it exists at the bottom of the ocean floor. That's where my sensors first were destroyed by the way, coincidence? Anyways, this thing contains a host of unknown elements. This is the reason for all the modern day monsters, the adapting and failing genetic lines. The new diseases and viruses, everything that can't be explained by modern science. There is something else too.. but I must do more research before I try to explain the unfathomable. <br/><br/>With all the disruptions caused by the object hitting us, our ice age was short lived thankfully, maybe a few years, ten at most. The world thawed just in time for you lot to crawl from your little holes in the ground and start again. I understand it was a rough process, I myself was a part of it. Though we did not have so many deadly creatures as we do now, though that's how it goes in a desert wilderness; Not much use for a herbivore. I'm surprised we made it at all, let alone were able to make a home out of this hostile little island. Get used to it, with whatever those are in the ocean, it's unlikely that we'll receive contact for some time.<br/><br/>Sincerely,<br/>The Watcher</font><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Hollow"" type=""button"">The Hollow [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""lime"">Entry Date:</font><font color=""khaki"">  2/14/2236</font><br/><font color=""lime"">Subject: </font><font color=""khaki"">The Hollow</font><br/><font color=""lime"">From: </font><font color=""khaki"">The Watcher</font><br/><font color=""lime"">To:</font> <font color=""khaki"">ARK</font><br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">Dear Associates of Record Keeping;<br/><br/>I've been doing a lot this past year, but I have an important discovery. It seems that the object brought something with it, I'm unsure what it should be classified as; Disease? Virus? Bacteria? Any of those will do. I call it The Sickness, a fitting name really. It hits its victim through their blood. I haven't been able to figure out where it comes from, or how it infects us, but I know it comes from The Orb. It has to, let me explain.<br/><br/>The Subject will begin to show symptoms of a normal cold. Runny or Stuffy nose, Itchy or Sore throat, Cough, Congestion, Slight body aches or a mild headache, Sneezing, Watery eyes, Low-grade Fever, and mild fatigue. This is what makes it so hard to catch in time. These colds symptoms can last anywhere from a few days, to a week before the subject moves into stage two. Luckily for us is it not transmittable between the infected and the uninfected.<br/><br/>Stage two consists of only a handful of symptoms, this is what you want to look for, this is how you know somebody has The Sickness. The area around the eyes will become dramatically darker, resembling  bruising around the eyes. The victim's eyes will become spider webbed with dark lines, like an allergic irritation, but black in color.  Failure of any, or in rare cases; all, of the five sense can fail during stage two. This stage can range anywhere from a day, to a week. Typically depending on how strong and healthy the victim is, the stronger and healthier, the worse the final outcome it going to be. <br/><br/>It should be noted that once a victim is confirmed stage two, death is inevitable. There is no way to stop what it going to happen. Stage Three results in death of the host, by mutation. The Sickness is like an organic, microscopic oil. Once in the body, it travels to the heart and begins replicating. Rather than attack anything specifically, it kind of oozes across the body, traveling along veins until it coats all of the proper inner workings of the human body. Upon dissection it should be noted that all organic tissue inside the host is black; The blood remains unaffected.<br/><br/>Stage Three never lasts more than a day or two, causing extreme weakness and fatigue. The victim will suffer a heart attack, dying human. What comes next is why I feel this can only come from The Orb. The victim's body will begin to twitch, then spasm widely; the whole process takes only a few moments. The Sickness will then move to the exterior nearly instantaneously, spreading in the blink of an eye until the victim's flesh is as black as the night. It will then evolve the host's body into a mutation, I've found that no two are every the same.<br/><br/>The specimen I had hear proved incredibly difficult to kill, and I was prepared. During the process of the awakening, the creature is fully aware, and is highly intelligent. This specific variation had something akin to a scorpion's tale, and two enormous, incredibly hardened shields on the arms, which it used to take cover behind as it attacked with it's tail. It also appears to have had the ability to fire acidic liquids from it's mouth in a steady stream. The results of this experiment were unfortunate, and I will no longer continue my research on live subjects.<br/><br/>I've dubbed these unfortunate individuals the Hollow, based off an old novel I read once.<br/><br/>Sincerely,<br/>The Watcher</font><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Immortals"" type=""button"">The Immortals [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""lime"">Entry Date:</font><font color=""khaki""> 9/24/2237</font><br/><font color=""lime"">Subject:</font><font color=""khaki""> The Immortal</font><br/><font color=""lime"">From:</font><font color=""khaki""> The Watcher</font><br/><font color=""lime"">To:</font><font color=""khaki""> ARK</font><br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">Dear Associates of Record Keeping; <br/><br/>Further research into The Sickness has led me to a new discovery concerning stage one. According to my findings some of us can adapt. I don't know what the original purpose of this illness is, to weed out the weaker human beings and let a race of superiors reign over the new world, or as a way of eradicating all of us. Regardless, some our bodies can adapt to and utilize this foreign bio-agent in advantageous ways. These people I've been referring to as The Immortals, though I have not come across any specimens that actually are immortal, it was just a fitting name.<br/><br/>The subject in question will experience all the symptoms of stage one, but that's where it stops. Instead of contaminating the organic tissue of the body, this foreign agent for some reason will attach itself to the productive area of the heart, forming a bond with the blood cells, unlike those who contract the lethal version of this. Once the Stage One symptoms pass the host of this mutated version of The Sickness will experience a way to cause unnatural phenomena willingly. I call this alternate version of The Sickness, The Spark. It acts like a catalyst that allows The Immortals to cause specific phenomena at will, without it these feats would be impossible. <br/><br/>I actually had two subjects to analyze this time. Subject A was able to manipulate organic plant matter within a mile radius, subjecting the plants to his will in such a way that he could cause them to sprout roots of varying sizes, with can span a length itself of one mile. He was unable to change the atomic properties of the flower, into anything other than what it was. This phenomena seems specifically focused on the grow and control of these vines. <br/><br/>Subject B was able to manipulate ink of any variation. We tested will both common writing ink, and an organic ink compound found within specific species of aquatic animals. She was able to manipulate this material wholly, but was unable to materialize it such as Subject A could. She was able to however make it move to her will, including hovering in the air, and way able to make it obtain any dimension of shape, down to the finest of details. It can be of no coincidence that this particular subject enjoyed painting, her works of art typically made using ink.<br/><br/>These Immortals are astounding, but also incredibly dangerous. Subject A had a mental breakdown and was easily able to rip a hole through the facility, even though his participation was completely voluntarily. Subject B is capable of tracking ink she has previously manipulated, and we are going to do our best to apprehend Subject A before he hurts anybody, but caution is advised.<br/><br/>It is still quite unclear what causes this whole process, but the results can vary widely. Though, this is just speculation, two people could share the same phenomena inducing powers. I would like to study that.<br/><br/>Sincerely,<br/>The Watcher</font><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Spark"" type=""button"">The Spark [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""lime"">Entry Date:</font><font color=""red""> &lt;!@$?&gt;</font><br/><font color=""lime"">Subject:</font><font color=""khaki""> The Spark</font><br/><font color=""lime"">From:</font><font color=""khaki""> The Watcher</font><br/><font color=""lime"">To:</font><font color=""khaki""> ARK</font><br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">Dear Associates of Record Keeping; <br/><br/>Prolonged studies have shown something incredibly astounding about these Immortals, about their drive, their Spark. Within each host, we know, resides a variant strain of The Sickness. What we didn't know, something we couldn't comprehend at the time, is this is not just a virus. It's a sentient, living creature. It seems impossible, but let me explain.<br/><br/>When contracted, The Spark is nothing more than a virus in likeness. But, as it finds a host and develops, it becomes intelligent. It doesn't replicate itself through Mitosis within the bloodstream, those fragments are actually pieces of its body. Not only that, but it doesn't just attach to the blood, it latches onto everything. Every atomic building block that makes up an Immortal, also shares space with the Spark. The nature of this relationship is symbiotic, however I have been unable to discern why the Spark is unable to separate itself from its host. Small gene splicing experiments proved successful, but only for a short while. Without the host, the Spark will die. Additionally, the separated atoms have an atomic attract with one another, meaning if they come in too close of a proximity they will merge. The Spark's atoms seem to actively seek out it's former counterpart. Putting the Spark's atom, with one other than it's host will not start the merging process. However, when applying an extreme situation, the Spark will join. It will choose to live.<br/><br/>Somehow the phenomena the Immortals possess is linked to this process. Merging with a new host, under certain circumstances, will evolve a new phenomena. Without such stipulations, the Spark will not merge with anything other than its host. I have been unsuccessful in trying to decrypt this genetic algorithm. What is the link between the three?<br/><br/>I've had many subjects to analyze, and I've come to the conclusion that each Spark has a personality as well. Some subjects seemed able to converse with a voice in their head. Preliminary results showed Dissociative Identity Disorder. However, recent findings bring to light proof of the Dual-Soul Theory. Two souls inhabiting one body. Some subjects are able to hold a mental conversation with the spark, but they seem unable to change conscious places.<br/><br/>It should also be noted that the Sparks name themselves. They are fully aware, sentient beings, that can learn and experience emotion just as we do. Though, each different spark seems to be strongly associated with a different emotion like Sorrow, or Haughtiness.</font><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;Document End&gt;</font></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Awakening"" type=""button"">The Awakening [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""lime"">Entry Date:</font><font color=""red"">&lt;!@#_)?&gt;</font><br/><font color=""lime"">Subject:</font><font color=""khaki""> The Awakening</font><br/><font color=""lime"">From:</font><font color=""khaki""> Th?

A man's face appears on the screen, although it is pixelated and no detail can be made out. The visual cuts out for a moment, replaced by slowly ascending black lines and static, before cutting back in. A fire rages in the background, and beastial howl, followed by gunfire and explosions obscure the man's voice.<br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite"">""I don't know if I'm going to live through this,""</font> he begins. An explosion jars the camera, throwing the man forward as he turns to look behind him. His face appears back on the camera a moment later as he straightens is. <font color=""navajowhite"">""These findings must be reported!""</font> He shouts, covering his head from falling debris as a large explosion shakes the facility once more. A terrifying screech resounds throughout the speakers of the terminal. <br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite"">""My god.. do you hear it?""</font> As if to emphasise his point the screech came again, so powerful this time the camera's image freezes and distorts.<font color=""navajowhite"">""If you are researching these monsters, Stop!""</font> He shouts desperately, looking around him in a panic. <font color=""navajowhite"">""These.. These people are not human! They are here only to destroy us!""</font><br/><br/>Gunfire fills the speakers as the screen lights up with bright light. The scientist whips around quickly, the sounds of something enormous crashing through a wall are audible as the camera topples from its position onto the floor. The new image shows a better angle of the destruction wreaked upon the lab, although this room looks far more intact than those farther off in the image. Small rubble litters the floor, as do overturned gurney's surrounded by smashed glass. Paper lies everywhere, and off towards the left a bloodied hand is visible, without the rest of its body. <br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">""Doctor-""</font> The creature's scream drowns out the voice of the new arrival, followed by a hail of gunfire. The image warps again and a white static emits. When the image comes back the pixeled doctor is back. He is on the floor, staring into the camera.<br/><br/><font color=""navajowhite"">""Kill them.. YOU MUST KILL TH-""</font> The figure is dragged away screaming in agony. The partial image of a soldier steps into view, their weapon's muzzle ablaze as they fire on the large shadowy mass dragging the doctor away. He screams for what seems an Eternity as he is dragged down the hall. The camera is shaking too much, and the resolution is too poor to make out any identifying qualities of the monster disappearing around a corner. <br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">""GO GO GO!""</font> The soldier shouts. Her footsteps are joined by many others as they charge through the room, some of them seem to be carrying very heavy weapons. The reach the hallway, <font color=""khaki"">""FIRE!""</font> The soldier screams as she charges down the hallway, a fresh magazine in her weapon. Two the soldiers take a knee, firing large tube like weapons. A metallic screech emits from their weapon, leaving a trail of smoke. A split second later two explosions jar the facility, and the camera. But the image persists.<br/><br/>A black armored figure mottled with red blood soars down the hallway, crossing the visible, adjoining hallway, and continuing further down out of site. The soldiers begin to backup slowly, as the rocketiers reload. A blackened blur pierces through one of the rocket soldiers. His screams fade quickly as he is whipped out of sight, towards the direction of the creature. The second rocket soldier manages to reload, but is stabbed faster than the video can capture, and whipped away.<br/><br/><font color=""khaki"">""Retreat! Retreat! Run for your lives!""</font> One of the soldiers yells, running down the hallway. The beast appears back into view with a snarl. It's tail rips through the fleeing soldier with such speed that the corpse doesn't stop moving as the soldier's blood sprays out in a mist in front of them. The body loses its velocity as it falls into two halves, cut diagonally across the torso.<br/><br/>Suddenly the camera moves, upwards and away from the creature. Through the rapid motion and blurred images a battalion of soldiers moving towards the creature are barely visible. A new wave of gunfire emits through the speakers of the terminal, accompanied by familiar explosions. The camera jostles as the person carrying it flees. The person trips, and the camera spins as it slows to a stop. The image falls onto a white robed figure, with an auto-pixelated face.<br/><br/>The last sounds played through the video are those of footsteps pounding closer, and the crunch of the camera being crushed. <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">&lt;Video End&gt;</font></div></div></div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Weather"" type=""button"">Weather [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""gold"">Rain:</font> It nearly never rains on Dust, at least not naturally.

They provide a steady stream of earthen resources; metal, stone, and marble. Their main staple of trade are the munitions and ballistic arms they create; they are not proficient enough in the advanced areas of gunsmithing to achieve a profitable margin from it. The restored automotive plant is used mainly for parts and pieces, rather than whole construction, but does provide an income.<br/><br/>The area around Arclight is a mixed desert. Lots of rocks, cactus, and shrubbery, with a few thorny trees and plants in between. Despite being located upon the side of one of the great mountains, there exist few hills around Arclight, mostly remaining semi-flat with a few small rises. There is also a considerable amount of wildlife in the vicinity; only a handful of which are not hostile or dangerous.<br/><br/>The area within Arclight shows the calloused hands of dedicated fabrication. Many of the buildings are welded together from scrap metals, and those created from the foundry. Though they do not have any protective walls around the town itself, the houses are formidable in their own right. Very little are restored ruins, or wood. The main outer shell of the structures are typically thick metal, with bars over windows and metal shutters. The metalwork inside is thinner, but well crafted.<br/><br/>The people are burly and tough, even pleasant once you get past the abrasiveness of most. Nearly all of the males patriotically work the mines, leaving most of the smithing and crafting to the women. Though, you'll hardly find a clean person there, everyone is either covered in some form of dirt or grease, and the local fashion trend seems to be ""Leather Apron"".<br/><br/>Not many problems exist around Arclight. The occasion spider infestation, big or small, within the mines, and the hostile wildlife are about all there is to worry about. The town has never come across anything that couldn't be shot to death.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Ashford"" type=""button"">Ashford [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightgreen"">Ashford</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Gaens<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Small Town<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 400 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Chemical Technology, Metallurgy Sciences, Studies of Cave Fauna and Flora, Mushroom Farming.   <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Ashford Caverns<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Ashford is more of a science facility than an actual town. Only those dedicated to specific areas of science, and the mushroom farmers, live there. Primarily research is done on the caverns themselves, concerning the specific things that grow, live, and breed there. Anything from fungi and moss, to animals, insects, and bacteria. Additionally Ashford follows the common theme of the Gaens, being producers of a food source. A variety of mushrooms are host to the caverns, and the edible ones are largely cultivated, growing quickly and up to twelve feet in height. There are also minors studies there, such as the practise of using chemical compounds to melt away useless rock, while leaving behind more precious metals and gems. <br/><br/>The outlying area around Ashford is a mixed desert. Lots of rocks, cactus, and shrubbery, with a few thorny trees and plants in between. Being located upon the side of one of the great mountains, there exist a scattering of hills and slopes south and east, while the north and north-east remains semi-flat. There's not an abundance of wildlife around the community itself, though humanoid threats have caused the town to seek protection, employing security of Motum Diversum. The front most system of caves and caverns have been sculpted into the mushroom farms, with much of the science taking place from deeper within.<br/><br/>The area within Ashford is sleek and simple. Their buildings consist of pieces from the great Ark ship, fabricated together into laboratories, and bunkhouses. Though there are no specific, individual places of residence, there are barrack-esque community homes, with a living area, kitchen, and sleeping area. There's not much danger behind the sleek, metal walls and the tempered, bullet proof glass.  <br/><br/>The people there are polite, if not a tad overly eccentric. Though some of them hold much disdain from human contact, others are quite friendly and much less cynical. The mushroom workers are most brusque and speak freely, though that may be due to the fact that a mushroom lager flows freely during downtime. <br/><br/>The most trouble Ashford has is the threat of banditry from roving bands of raiders or slavers. Not many animals trouble the facility, and any that do are quickly handled by the Motum Security Force. Occasionally wildlife within the caverns causes a stir, but there are typically only few injuries and even fewer deaths.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Aspin"" type=""button"">Aspin [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h1""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightgreen"">Aspin</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Gaens<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: City<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 12,000 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Agricultural Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Medical Sciences, Weaponized Sciences, Earth Science, Biology, Formal Sciences.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Greenfields, ARK Reactor Core, ARK Library, ARK Terminal Server Farm, Disease Center, Zoology Animal Zoo, Botanical Gardens.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Aspin itself is a milestone for science and technology. Comprised mostly of pieces from the ARK ship, Aspin is a modern academy of science, accepting all applicants in the pursuit of knowledge and discovery. Though the city's studies touch nearly every branch of science, there are a few main focuses in which most of the manpowered is applied too. Though a few of the smaller, key operations include the Reactor Core; which can take a small amount of energy and substantially multiply it: The ARK Library; where the terminals information and coding databases are compiled and shared with the public: And The Terminal Server Farm; which is the only server farm capable of maintaining all Terminal information based  traffic, logging, and storage. <br/><br/>The Greenfield is a critical objective for maintenance and study. An expanse of greenland that has kept relics of the old world alive on it's fields. Many old world plant life, and crops exist on this land. The field is approximately 48 miles long, and 16 miles wide. <br/><br/>The outlying areas around Aspin are sandy dunes, and expanses of hot yellow sand. The winds that blow across the desert do not bother Aspin much, as they reside behind walls in which the blowing sand banks upon. Sandstorms to pose some annoyance, but for the most part, only the heat reflective off of the uniform surface poses an issue to those wandering outside. This area is mostly home to reptiles, small mammal like creatures, and birds of prey.<br/><br/>The area within Aspin follows the theme of its other towns and settlements, sleek gray metal pieced together from the ARK ship. The majority of the great vessel exists within this city, though parts of the city are fabricated from Dust methods, it hardly shows due to the process in which the Aspin workers build their structures. The streets are of packed earth, set with shaped stones. A team of sweepers helps remove excess sand from the city.<br/><br/>The personality of the people of Aspin come at great variety. One will find every kind of personality trait amongst the people there. Though most are no-nonsense scientists, the personalities of ordinary staff and families are as widely varied as any city.<br/><br/>Aspins problems consist mostly of only those regarding science in nature. Unsolved equations and elusive theories plague every scientific mind. Though, in the more physical sense there is always the potential for a mutagenic viral outbreak. Most wildlife stays away from the walls, and humanoid threats don't dare to challenge the city and its hired security.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bakersville"" type=""button"">Bakersville [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""steelblue"">Bakersville</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Aqueous<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Village <br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 70 Est. <br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Trade<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The School<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Bakersville can hardly be considered anything other than a gathering of people with a common purpose. But for formality, and technicalities, it is classified as a village. Even though all of the outlying buildings are ruins of the old world and are in a desolate state of decay. The only building worthy of mention, flagpole and all, is the school. Repaired with whatever scraps were on hand, a team of scavengers used this as a base of repleshentment. Now however it has become sort of a pilgrimage for some scavengers, some making their way there to trade whatever the find along their journey, before considering themselves actual scavengers. The building has been repurposed from a facility of teaching to a sort of large inn. Travelers may stay as needed, and trade with the merchants, usually older persons unfit for travel anymore. A few legacy families still live there, to maintain and operate the school for future generations, and as a monument in scavenger culture.  <br/><br/>The outlying area around Bakersville is mixed desert. Though it is considered the rocky fields of cactus, there do exist some of the other common features of a common mixed desert; thorny trees, shrubbery, and the occasional desert flower. There are large amounts of wildlife that roam around the hills around Bakersville. The flattest part in the whole area is that of the ruined town, and the school. Despite being a pilgrimage site for scavengers, many still claim the outlying area still holds secrets within its hills. <br/><br/>The area within Bakersville was obviously once a town, turn to rubble after The Fall. The buildings are crumbling relics of a distant age, with only a few still resembling actual places of residence. Many are just fragments of wall surrounded by rubble. The old asphalt roads still exist here, though they are heavily pockmarked, cracked, and nearly buried beneath dirt. The school itself is a bit ramshackle, though organized. The classrooms repurposed into inn like suites for travels, with the larger areas locked for storage. Most of the trading happens within the old gymnasium, where one can claim an unused stall to show their wares. Most of the windows have been boarded up, but in such a fashion as to allow moderate security, and still allow the inner parts of the old school to be lit up. It is still recommended to bring a lamp.<br/><br/>You'll never find a better haggler than the merchants of Bakerville, those of the legacy family who live there full time. They are wise, tactful, and operate with a certain degree of cunning; to which a man may find himself a new set of laces in which he had to trade his shoes for. When not business dealing, they are friendly and quite accepting of all people, with any story. They are one of the very few who openly do not fear Immortals, and are even rumored to harbor fugitives, for a price.<br/><br/>Despite the plethora of wildlife around Bakersville, the school never finds itself having a problem larger than a small rodent, or the occasional spider. Outside is quite another story, as the area is host to a number of species, many of which are not herbivores. For some, the risk is not worth it to travel to Bakersville, one could find themselves dead a thousand different times by just crossing the road. It's even been rumored that a man was dragged from an open doorway off into the deserts. (It is also rumored that scavengers later looted the body.)</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Brimson"" type=""button"">Brimson [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""steelblue"">Brimson</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Aqueous<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Town<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 3,500 est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Hunting, Leatherworking, Animal Husbandry, Butchering.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Pastures<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Brimson is the kinda town where everybody knows each other, and gossip flows as freely as ale. This town survives by the desert wildlife that exists around it. The families here make enough profit to keep their town afloat, and still buy their wife that sunday dress they've been wanting. The major output of this town is hunting, and the goods that go with it: Meats, Leathers, and the likes. They also have a formidable way of pasturing the more neutral creatures for ""breedin' and feedin'"". Other than that, not much else is notable about this town. Most of the work is done out of homes, or little shops on the corner. The largest, most notable landmark are the fiercely protected pastures, in which a man could find himself hung for trespassing on.<br/><br/>The lands around Brimson are wild and untamed. They find themselves host to a number of creatures from those pack oriented animals hunting through the rocky hills, to reptiles slithering their way across the dust, dirt, and sand. The lands around Brimson should only be traversed by experience hunters and scavengers, there's no place for new blood, who will likely find themselves killed by a plant before an animal gets them. <br/><br/>Inside Brimson the place feels like an old world suburbia. The houses are restored ruins, and with paint made from animal... bits, it almost feels homely. Almost, except for the rabid wildlife running amok through the streets. The old world roads here are not that bad, and the holes have been patched with packed dirt and tar made from... animal bits.<br/><br/>Most of those living in Brimson are rough and tough, animal wranglin' cowboys, who enjoy sour ale, sour women, and a good old fashion mob from time to time. Most are taught from an early age how to hogtie, skin, and properly eat the animals around. The women don't take nothin' from no one, and are likely to punch you in the face for being cross with them. Though once outside the hard, thorny shell of the residents, underneath they are quite mirthful and happily content with life. This feat is usually done through a few mugs of that before mention beer. Though there are some sweeter gals, they usually find themselves on the wrong end of the stick. There ain't no place for those soft of heart here, where a men and women wrestled in the streets, are thrown out a window, and are lynched by mobs.<br/><br/>Brimson is one of the very few towns without any real problems; let me explain. The dangerous critters of the world their children hunt for sport. Their women use watered down poison as a spice. The men hogtie large, dangerous carnivores for fun. And death is just another chapter in life, as long as you didn't die a coward, you died well, and most will not shed a tear when they pay their respects. Instead they are more likely to party in your name after the funeral... should there be something let to bury. Bandits give Brimson a very wide berth. The last troublemaker to roll into town, tried robbing a family, was subdued by a gentleman, and executed by his son. His seven year old son.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Copper"" type=""button"">Copper [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""mediumorchid"">Copper</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Neutral (Protected territory under Aqueous) <br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Town <br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 2,200 est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Mining<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Maw<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Copper is the most unfortunate place one could find themselves. The man production, and only production here, is mining: Minerals, Ores, and whatever else these unfortunate people dig up. None of this is done willingly however, as Copper, while a neutral territory, serves as a prison. A coalition exists between Motum Diversum and Aqueous, each contributing to the prison security force. Though technically in Aqueous territory, Copper is shared by both factions for harboring their criminals. Far more come from Motum Diversum, as Aqueous' cultural methods do not invoke a lot of criminal activity.<br/><br/>The immediate vicinity of Copper is flat, and barren terrain. Clear cutting operations are performed around the compound for at least a rough mile, making an attack very unlikely to happen, or even succeed. Beyond the killing zone, the clear cut area, the terrain slopes downward from the mountain side, looking like any other mixed desert. Few rocks, but lots of shrubbery and cactus. <br/><br/>Copper is surrounded by high walls, 12 feet approximately, make of welded together scrap. Much of the wall is made up of abandoned vehicles, with the gaps sealed with bits of scrap metal. A catwalk, only accessible from the guard towers, spans the entire half moon wall, each edge ending against the natural wall of a long cliff. The town itself, other than the fenced off guardsmen quarters and warden office, and the respective mess hall and other facilities, exists within the tunnels, lovingly nicknamed ""The Maw"".<br/><br/>The Tunnels are where the prisoners live. It takes the clearance of three, heavily guarded, and heavily fortified checkpoints. The first, warrants against outside attack, the second is for processing and clearance, and the third is basically a metal wall with a door, with two narrow slits for heavy machine guns, and additional slits for personnel. No prisoner is to even enter the floodlights that light the large tunnel before the internal barricade, unless summoned. An Exception is made for the day of quota, every seventh day, where two prisoners are allowed to push full minecarts through the door, which the track passes through all the way outside to a loading area. Each prisoner has a full division of guards on them at all times, usually no less than six.<br/><br/>Within The Maw there is a large tunnel that leads straight through to Ironhold's Death pits. Provided one could make it there, and even if the prisoner's could bore through the massive, round metal seal that has been in place long since before The Fall, there are much easier ways to seek certain death. This task is near impossible as the only contraband allowed through are pickaxes, which have been proven to not even mar the metallic surface.<br/><br/>Living within The Maw is another thing all together, some say it's the closest to hell you could ever get living. There is no social structure, no order, and no purpose other than to fill the quota. The gangs within are highly unpredictable, but are most certainly violent. The guards do not intervene as long as the quota is met, and nobody approaches the barricade, which is the easiest way to seek death. Upon arrival no map is provided, you wear only the clothes on your back, and present with a pickax. Each prisoner has a separate quota, their own cart with their name bolted to the front on a heavy metal plate, and are expected to have it filled by the end of the week.<br/><br/>The only real problem of Copper, is living there. The guard life is pretty easy, eat, sleep, exercise, run drills, guard. There are enough guards there that are even permitted days off. Because of the clear cut, nothing approaches the thick walls other than caravans, guards, and prisoners.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Dead-End"" type=""button"">Dead-End [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""mediumorchid"">Dead-End</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Neutral<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Small Town<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 220 est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Trade, Glass<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Smelter<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Dead-End is one of the loneliest little towns on Dust. The name literally means that it's a dead end, there's no point of even going to the town unless you're a caravanier. There exists one tiny, dusty little tavern which is also a trade office, the post master, the trade master, and the general store, and the barbershop all of which are run out of the tram station. It's no wonder why the man who owns the Inn is the town's unofficial mayor. The town only stays alive by baking sand into glass in a big smelting complex, restored to functionality. It's comprised of three buildings, the warehouse for glass, the ovens for baking glass, and the crawler shed. There exists no storage for sand because one could walk outside and begin digging. The crawler shed is home to two large, old world construction vehicles that once went by the name of bulldozer, a large bucket wagon is attached to the back to be filled with sand. The filling process is done by shovel.<br/><br/>Dead-End's terrain consists of.. sand. Sand everywhere. Sand in your eyes, sand in the streets, sand in the homes, sand in the soup!! With no walls to keep the sandstorms out, the entire town runs the risk of being buried, like a snow day, but with sand. Fortunately their production deals with sand, and any excess piles are just bulldozes to the smelters. The road into town is less of a road, and more of a flat line weaving between large sand dunes.  <br/><br/>The area within Dead-End is still sand. There just happen to be dome-like buildings haphazardly constructed in the sand. These buildings are one to two-story domes, with a hatch on the top and a ladder leading down the outside. The Smelter however, does not share this dome shaped construction, and great pains are taken to ensure the great double doors can open for the crawlers. If one did not know what to look for, the could miss the partially buried town all together. Fortunately, the floors of the homes are mostly smooth stone, with the inevitable thin layer of sand. Built on top of ruins of old structures, the metal domes are able to receive power.<br/><br/>Also quite fortunate, is the tunnel that has it's very own dome over the entrance, is lit, is relatively safe, and leads all the way to the Parkland junction. It's by this tunnel that Dead-End moves its glass, using hazardously made trams upon a powered rail.<br/><br/>The people of sand.. I mean Dead-end, are quiet and reserved. They don't get a lot of visitors, and don't really have an inn to speak of. In fact, most of them are quite easily startled. They're not violent, they don't commit crime, and they go about their tasks with reserved candor. Most however, are eager to grill that rare visitor for news of the outside world. <br/><br/>The problems of Dead-End are relatively small ones. Mostly the birds of prey, sizable enough to carry off a child, don't bother Dead-End much. The dune reptiles typically hunt each other, and only rarely bother the people of Dead-End. The only real problem about Dead-End are the sandstorms, which are just as likely to suffocate you as to tear the cloth from your body, and the flesh from your bones.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Dresden"" type=""button"">Dresden [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""forestgreen"">Dresden</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Gaens<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Town<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 3,200 est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Weaponized Sciences and production, Defensive Sciences and production, Automotive Sciences and production.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Automotive Plant, The Highway<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Looking for a death ray? Dresden is your place. This scientific community is a mix of science and family life, and the arts of war. Here is where all your fancy laser guns, plasma rifles, disintegration rays, and other non-ballistic tools of destruction are researched and likely created. Though not the only place to manufacture these types of weapons, is is a main export, and the schematics for them come from here. Additionally the same goes for defensive tactics, armors, self-maintaining automatic turrets, and sonic repulsors. The Dresdenites also are responsible for the main export of vehicles, which are typically armed and armored, and come from the large, restored automotive assembly plant. Which functioning assembly lines and all! Though with all good things of science, the research starts broad and narrows down to the focus of Dresden's main exports, like laser optics and engine mechanics.<br/><br/>Dresden is a relatively flat, coastal town, despite being miles from the coast. There exist few hills, most being along the mountain's edge, and lost of plant life. As with all areas of dense plant life, comes wildlife. More notable though, is the highway which is the best looking piece of road around. The Dresden scientists used a combination of excess automotive fluids, sludge, and some chemical waste to repave the road. Unfortunately years later the road workers all died from some chemical reason or whatever. That's not important. The important part is that the road is smooth, and whole, all the way from the northern tunnel junction, and about halfway to Fairbury. One could cruise in peace, without bumps or potholes, enjoying the crisp ocean breeze, as it toasts the flesh on your face.<br/><br/>Dresden is another one of those classic wasteland suburbia towns. The squat square homes, with their desert lawns, and straight avenues create kind of a homely feel. Although the town is much larger than appeared, as the nice restored areas gives way to the dirtier, slum-like areas, and then to the unrestored ruins. Effectively creating a buffer of poor workers between themselves and those ugly ruins. Really though, the status of one's living conditions really depend on the amount of effort put into it. The slums are technically more a camp of the unfortunate, a cancer on the town of Dresden. The unwanted and the undesirables living there, separated from the higher class. Unfortunately the road workers died before they could repair the actual roads in the towns. Oddly enough nobody is willing exposure to deadly chemicals to fix them either.<br/><br/>The Dresdenites are a varied, and mixed people. They do not discriminate, unless you're poor, or you have funny eyes and can make people explode with a flick of your wrist. The important workers and scientists, and the poverty stricken hold great disdain for each other. Yet a man is as likely to befriend you, a random stranger, as threaten your life and rob you. Crime exists mostly in the slums, due to people moving there seeking opportunity. Most of them finding out that they are not smart enough to join the science teams, and the menial automotive assembly work has been completely filled, with the worker's children getting the job, optionally, in an heir like manner after the parent retires.<br/><br/>As stated previously, Dresden is host to slums, rife with poverty and crime. Though higher end areas housing scientists, automotive workers, and the actual residence of Dresden are well guarded from the slums. With patrols night round on the streets and important facilities, outsourced from Motum Diversum of course, not even wildlife really bother the more important residents. Slaver parties do happen by occasionally, but they steer clear of the well armed and protected neighborhood and target the slums instead. With no real security force of their own, the slums are left to their own devices as long as they don't bother the upper class.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Eternity"" type=""button"">Eternity [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h1""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""oldlace"">Eternity</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Edenites<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Metropolis <br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: Unknown<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Unknown<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Obelisks.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Eternity, perhaps aptly named, is a mysterious place with very little actually known about it. It is rumored that a single man stood upon the precipice of the great mountain and observed the city through a telescope. It is a monolithic structure, a mass of buildings colored to the light browns and yellows of dust itself. A massive, sandstone wall encompasses the entirety of the city, with enough watchtowers dotting its perimeter that it looks appears as a crown from a distance. The metropolis does not trade with anybody, no exports or imports crossing its borders. Nothing crosses its borders, nobody comes in and nobody comes out. Those foolish enough to try never return, and their fate remains unknown to those wise enough to stay on their own corner of dust. A forsaken army once tried to add the lands of The Edenites to their empire. The entire army never returned. The city has grown so large that it encompasses three others, the names of which have long since been lost to us.   <br/><br/>Beyond the colossal walls the expanse is nothing but flat, sandy desert, with winds that blow violently enough to rend the flesh from one's body. There is nothing but the white hot expanse of sand, cooked underneath the sun to a point of burning flesh upon prolonged contact, and no shelters exists between the borders and the city. There are however, at random intervals, with no real pattern placement, large, white obelisks penetrating through the fields of sand. Their purpose is unknown.  <br/><br/>There is nothing known about the happenings inside the immense walls of Eternity. Other than the metropolis seems colored to the hues of earth and sant, suggesting that the entire settlement is made from sandstone.<br/><br/>There is also nothing known about the people of Eternity, or the Edenites altogether, other than they dress in white, hooded robes, and can be seen wandering close to the edges of their borders from time to time. The do not appear armed, but will fire upon anybody who crosses the threshold.<br/><br/>There are no existing documents relaying any sort of information regarding any events that could be considered problematic for Eternity. Their entire existence is a peculiar secret.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Eton"" type=""button"">Eton [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""black""><span class=""bb-b"">Eton</span></font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Forsaken<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Town <br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 7,700 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Mining, Metal Working, Gunsmithing, Stone Cutting, Explosives Manufacturing.  <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The ""Boom Factory""<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Eton is a town formed by a collection of growing huts and pitfires around a large complex known as the ""Boom Factory"", the center of the tribalistic town. A enormous complex of patched metal structures, broken windows barricaded with wood, scrap, and hide, and a labyrinth of walkways and rooms. Due to the more primitive nature of The Forsaken, it's not technically considered restored. More, converted. Decorated with skulls, cured hides, pointed wood barricades, and other tribal, raider like aesthetics. It produces minerals and metals for its empire, selling the prettier gems across their borders for profit, as they prefer more things along the lines of bone tooth necklaces and garish tattoos. There exist no walls, and no real standing guard, but who would be stupid enough to invade a people who dance in fire for fun? <br/><br/>The area beyond the large tribal fires and makeshift huts is a sloped expanse of desert filled full of cactus and other spiny plants, which are used in permanently marking their flesh with ink. The town is located on a flat, rocky outcrop that resumes its slope upwards toward Quinton, and downwards, ending just before Locke. It's grade is not steep enough to actually be considered part of the great mountain, but the result of living in this area have resulted in powerfully built bodies.  <br/><br/>As stated previously, inside the area of Eton there are no walls, which only reflects the bare bones social structure they maintain. A rough system of honor and duty, and strong feelings of amusement towards public displays of death and maiming. The mines are worked by those actually deemed strong enough and worthy enough, as if it were a privilege to break one's back all day long hauling the treasures of the mountain. Within the great complex of the ""Boom Factory"" a small tram station exists, powered by a treaty with Motum Diversum. It isn't very large, and no powered train runs through it. Any vehicles that run the track are hand powered, except for the occasional gasoline fueled buggies.<br/><br/>The people here are wild and erratic. They respect only those who they can't best, which also serves as their system of rank. Displays of blood in gore in the street, often the results of a challenge, are of no bother to man, woman, or child. It wouldn't be uncommon to find the loser being molested by the victor, of which gender is no concern. In fact, a child born of someone's better is considered an honor, as that child will likely grow up to be strong and worthy of life. These acts of sexual depravity are not met with screaming and tears, as softer folk often exhibit, but rather haughty challenge full of taunts and insults, as if it were just another challenge for the molester to win. Here they do not discriminate against one's choosing of a life partner, or ""Chikan"", meaning soulmate. Slaves are also not uncommon, and usually result in the loser of a challenge begging for their life. Begging is something the savages of Eton view as a forfeit of one's life, an act more despicable than taking one's own life.  <br/><br/>Even animals are afraid to venture here, probably turned away by the smells of their cooking brethren, or the people dressed in the hide akin to the animal's own. Humans on the other hand, would be just plain foolish to attack this settlement. They are as likely to be cast into the society forcefully, at the lowest social rung, as to be raped and set loose, or just plain killed.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Fairbury"" type=""button"">Fairbury [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h1""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightgreen"">Fairbury</font></div></div><br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: The Gaens<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: City<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 10,100 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Marine Science and Biology, Hydroponics, Medicinal Research, Textiles, History, Robotics.<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Textile Mill, The Hydro Farms, Atlantis<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Fairbury is a large city, perhaps the only Gaen city made mostly from scrap, albeit constructed to look as nice as possible. Not many A.R.K resources were donated to the steadily growing settlement, much to the city's dismay. However they made do. They mostly specialize in ocean science, but it is a dangerous job. Fairbury is also the leading city in medicinal research, over production.<br/><br/>Atlantis does not refer to the lost city of old, found in many existing books of mythology. It's a pet name given to a sunken mall, connected through the flooded tram tunnel. One must begin their dive in the middle of the tunnel to reach the underwater complex. It takes roughly two hours of swimming, with the help of webbed flippers designed after a species of aquatic animal. The Mall itself however is dry, free from water. Years of patching, and the installation of an airlock allowing them to slowly jettison out the gathered water, have recently opened up the city to the minds of science. Because of the nature of the once underwater mall, much of pre-Earth's history and technology has been preserved, and it responsible for many of the restorations today. It's been converted into a massive facility of research and science, and with the needed for constant repairs, mechanics willing to work inside and out are paid very handsomely. At each level of the mall there exists and emergency airlock room, with oxygen fed tubes that run through the tram tunnel, incase of emergency. The mall consists of thirteen levels, and many rooms left to be explore.<br/><br/>The Hydro Farms are the second area of greenery existing on Dust. A canal of water reaching inland, converted into a botanical garden and farm through the use of water canals and a flood control gate. It is unknown why this area persistently remains green, but through careful nurturing it is able to quickly grow mass amounts of floral goods.<br/><br/>The textile mill is as exactly as it sounds, a large plant for cloth and woven fabric goods. This makes fairbury the largest supplier of modesty fine clothing, ranging in all styles.<br/><br/>The area around Fairbury differs depending on one's orientation. Located on the edge of a mixed desert of cacti and shrubbery, the immediate southern vicinity is an expanse of flat salt plains. An old weathered road leads into the city, the worn asphalt almost completely overtaken by the harsh conditions of the desert. <br/><br/>Within Fairbury the streets are relatively nice, made of carefully packed soil and religiously kept smooth by mechanized plowing machines. The houses may be of scrap, but the city perhaps most closely resembles one of the old world. A layer of ruins exists around the city, which is been designated as a Gaen wonder of the world. Green overgrowth of vines and trees have taken back this outer layer, grass growing rampantly through the unused streets. It's both beautiful, and dangerous. <br/><br/>Within the middle of the ruins, approximately twelve blocks of hazardous foliage of green hues, and budding flowers every color of the light spectrum, exists Fairbury itself. Once one has crossed through the danger of such a wild and untamed ruin of collapsed structures and winding maze like paths, safety awaits. Fairbury is protected behind solid metal walls, patrolled by hired guard that fend off the wildlife with high powered weaponry, who maintain their best not to damage the ruins too badly. The tram entrance exists peacefully in the very middle of the city, guarded only by scientific minds concerned for the safety of others.<br/><br/>The people here are as varied as anywhere else. The general theme however is zealous protection of the beautiful ruins, covered in the green overgrowth of the old world (even if the occasional plants does have a flesh hungry maw, and despite the droves of wild animals present). They also harbor a fervent need to protect their own, and Atlantis. Otherwise they are quite polite and happy, with the occasional scrooge or scoundrel in their midst. When not in their white coats embodying the endeavors of the mind, they were fine clothing made in their very own textile mill. Generally, they exhibit the same fashion and characteristics of an older area of polkadot dresses, and gender specific duties, with a twist of modernization as woman work just like the men do.   <br/><br/>One does not simply tell themselves ""I'm going to Fairbury."" Passage through the ruins is incredibly dangerous, and most enter and exit with a heavily armed escort, which offer their services for a modest price. Many of these escorts are available for hire. The area is rife with wildlife at every turn, most of it hostile. Even the plants seem predatory, many are full of toxins, sentient like appendages, and, or, maws full of teeth ready to consume anything that falls prey to it. Though the residents are very safe behind their walls and their mounted guns, travelers must exhibit the highest form of caution when traveling to and from. It's for this reason that caravans often brave the ruined city, as merchandise sells for hefty profits.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Forbes"" type=""button"">Forbes [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""black"">Forbes</font></div></div><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Forsaken<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Large City<br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 127,000 est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Military,  Automotive Manufacturing, Munitions Manufacturing, Metal Working, Gunsmithing, Livestock, Slavery, Alcohol, Tobacco, Dyes, Textiles.  <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Arena, The Throne, The Wall, The Market.<br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Forbes is the very center of all Forsaken activity. Ironhold is the fortress from where the Forsaken King rules, but Forbes is the trade hub. This city stands against the testament of time, as it is another relic of the old world. This once pristine city, now lies in a ruined state of decay and despair. Most reconstructive building work is done with patches of scrap or animal hide. Instead of flowery adornments, the typical fashion statements are bones, necklaces, and various pieces of animal. Many of the larger old world buildings have crumbled or toppled over. The asphalt street and sidewalks are shifted in places, prone to wide trenches and dramatic height differences. A large, thick wall composed of rusted vehicles cleared from the streets, and bolstered with scrap and rubble keep the sand out of the city. Outside the walls the tops of ruins poke through the sandy dunes. Forbes has over a hundred thousand people living within, though the city is quite large and most areas are not crowded.<br/><br/>One of the main features of Forbes is their official arena. An immense circular structure able to hold approximately 60,000 people according to old world standards. Though for large combative events, the residents of Forbes seem to find a way to squeeze inside. Once a playing ground for baseball teams, the field has been converted into a sandy pit of blood and sweat. Participants go through the locker rooms, converted to holding cells for slave fights, through the dugouts, which now house an array of weaponry, and then out into the killing grounds. The walls separating the spectators from the participants have been reinforced. On occasion a creature, or even a hollow, is brought in for sport.<br/><br/>The Throne is an old civic building, presumably the old world mayor's office. Much of it has collapsed, leaving only two rooms. The main entryway, which is a large hallway with a throne of steel and bone residing at the far end, and a large room behind that for the Forsaken King's rest and pleasure. The Throne is positioned right in between two staircases, half collapsed. To either side of the throne room are doors, blocked by rubble and sealed with scrap. Large marble columns line the walk up to the throne, none of which are wholly intact. <br/><br/>The Market is the one place in the city that is always crowded. Once an enormous old world mall, much of it has been cleared out and bolstered for trading purposes. Still, stalls and merchants hawking their wares can be found all around the exterior, especially concentrated in the main parking lots. It's here where everything can be found, and bought. Mother's sell their own children if the price is good enough, and vice versa.   <br/><br/>The area beyond the walls is an endless expanse of sand dunes. Though, as the wind blows and shifts the sands, it's very common to see old world ruins poking through the sand. The wall protects the inhabited parts of the city, keeping out the massive sand drifts. However, Forbes is frequent to sandstorms, so sand is a common thing inside the city itself, like many other places of Dust. Fortunately refuge is readily available within the mass of ruined buildings. <br/><br/>The area within Forbes, as previously mentioned, is ruined stone and concrete patch with skin, scrap, and other salvage. Despite the readily available space, much of the empty buildings are collapsed or undesirable, as the common mutated pest can often be found within these dwellings. The streets aren't bad, composed of dried, cracked asphalt. Though the terrain can be rough and difficult to navigate, as entire sections exist on different height levels and trenches from small to wide run throughout the city. <br/><br/>The people here come from all walks of Forsaken life, though they all share the same bloodthirsty callousness. Most of them aren't considered nice, or even pleasant, but they still maintain a tribalistic code of honor. When not brawling, or killing, in the streets, official disputes are settled in the arena, though typically there's not much in the way of victorious spoils. Forbes is the only Forsaken City known to somewhat tolerate travellers from other factions, needed to stimulate Forsaken economy.<br/><br/>One could consider living a Forsaken life a problem in itself, but in the people's eyes, there are no problems. Only challenges.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Jonestown"" type=""button"">Jonestown [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""mediumorchid"">Jonestown</font></div></div><br/><div class=""bb-right""><font color=""#00aeef"">Special Thanks to <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/oneeyedchurro"">@OneEyedChurro</a> for writing this piece.</font></div><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction:</font> Neutral<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification:</font> Town<br/><font color=""lime"">Population:</font> ~3,100<br/><font color=""lime"">Production:</font> Ideological/Single-Issue<br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas:</font> Crewcastle, Jones Dynamics <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description:</font><br/>Jonestown exists almost entirely as a testament to social experimentation and the effectiveness thereof- under a doctrine of the citizens' own making, called the 'Flux Laws', does the town operate as its own entity. Evidence of the Flux Laws is easy to see, as Jonestown exists almost eternally in a state of flux and changing, from the ""government"" that runs it to the complexes and labs that exercise production, little about the town of Jonestown will stay the same month-to-month. <br/><br/>At the beginning of each month, the permanent residents of Jonestown meet in what is called the Crewcastle, a building that looks to be the remnants of (or simply modeled after) an old-world courthouse, and it is there that they vote on several things. First and foremost, they are given opportunity to vote on a problem that plagues the city; this ranges from things like ""not enough food"" or ""buildings in disrepair"" to things like ""bandits nearby"" or ""Immortal in town"". If a problem receives enough votes, it is declared Jonestown's Precedent. The citizens then vote on whether or not a leader (or group of leaders) is needed to handle the problem. What this all amounts to is an environment where one leader will often only be in office for as long as his Precedent exists, as experts in various areas (i.e. A woodcutter when the Precedent is ""need wood"" or a farmer when the Precedent is ""need food"") are only elected when knowledge in their expertise is required. Jones Dynamics, a rather large multilevel complex full of differently sized rooms, walkways, balconies, and tunnels, is where people take the appropriate action following the monthly meet at the Crewcastle. Jones Dynamics is also in a state of flux from month-to-month; it may be a place to store the wood and food or it may be a place where architectural or defense research is done. Jonestown is not a place that has a set goal or production, and its denizens are self-proclaimed ""masters of none"". The neutral months are what trouble most citizens, however, and those are the months where no problem is set as Precedent and thus the city has no leader nor purpose. It is during these times that the town guard sees its numbers raise exponentially to serve as both a police and guardian role. <br/><br/>The area around Jonestown is a mixed desert, a pleasure given by its relative proximity to the coast. Is is relatively flat and shrubs and dead trees can be found dotting the landscape, though to the north and west there exists some hills and slopes, separating them from the nearby Ashford. There is some wildlife around, though they aren't much of a threat and normally pass the town by on their way towards water. <br/><br/>The buildings of Jonestown are simple, but carry an almost old-world charm to them. The town is surrounded by a low mud-brick wall, and the same material has been used to make several of the buildings. Many still tend to be an amalgamation of wood, metal, and mud, however. Several communities can be seen built around each other, separated almost into quarters with the main roads as their dividers, with the grand Crewcastle on the eastern-most end of town with Jones Dynamics next door. Around this ""inner"" section, and often times pouring over the low wall, is the ""slum"" section, with much smaller and squat huts meant to house merely a person or two.  <br/><br/>The citizens of Jonestown are fairly scholarly and theoretical, often liking to hold conversations about their government and its success, as well as about problems they think should be set to Precedent. This means they often come across as self-absorbed, and those thoughts aren't entirely misplaced. The people of Jonestown have gotten used to the luxury of openly voicing their opinions on things, whether you want to hear it or not. The other type of citizen is one who lives there simply to give themselves purpose- they won't voice their opinions very much, but will happily work towards the Precedent or even guard the town with their lives as long as they are allowed to continue to live there. <br/><br/>The first and foremost problem troubling the noisy people of Jonestown are the bandits and raiders that often like to take advantage of their Precedent state and attack when most of the populace is working towards something other than defense. Public unrest is also often a problem, as well, as sometimes the population can't agree on a Precedent which leads to neutral months, which no one seems to be particularly fond of, even though it offers better protection. It would be difficult to actually <span class=""bb-i"">take over</span> Jonestown, however, as massive power changes tend to really piss everyone off into rebellion.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sel"" type=""button"">Sel [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""steelblue"">Sel</font></div></div><br/><div class=""bb-right""><font color=""#00aeef"">Special Thanks to <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a> for writing this piece.</font></div><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Aqueous<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: Small town<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 125 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Paper, Ink, Art, Culture, Modern Religious scrolls, Geisha training, Southern Shengriantist Monks<br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Maiko quarters, The Temples, Southern Shengriantist Shrines, Sayuri's Grove, Khan's Yurt Shanty Town<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>If Tas is a testament to the vices of Old World Sino-pacific culture, then Sel serves as it's literal opposite. Less a town and more a gigantic temple dedicated to the cause of preserving the virtues, traditions, practices and culture of the Old World and Dust. Sel also creates art, religious texts and trains those accepted in the ways of the Geisha both Old World and new and serves as a gathering place for Southern Shengriantist Monks. At one point, Sel was an Old World amusement park, miraculously preserved by the Fall, it's transformation into the plastic sacred ground that it is today was done by the first early Shengriantist monks and volunteer help from the Khans. In a 200 year event known now as ""The Divine Transformation,"" the grounds were re-purposed into several traditional temples, shrines, statues dedicated to the gods, meditation grounds, and training groves. <br/><br/>The area outside of Sel is generally flat desert dotted with shrubbery and mutated flowers. The closer to Sel one gets, the more flowers one can see-- an attempt to regain the beauty of the land by monks, now forgotten. Technically not part of Sel, would be the extensive community of tents one would have to approach before getting into Sel proper, these are the yurts owned by the Khans of sand-- a nomadic group of men and women dedicated to the days of the Mongolian Empire. The have a spiritual agreement with the Monks of Sel and have a constant garrison of protection surrounding the city. Further away from Sel, are the packs of hollow and corrupted Immortals-- which seem to be increasing by the day. <br/><br/>The interior of Sel is the impressive result of 200 years of religious dedication. What was once a mouse themed amusement part, now holds stone shrines and wooden temples and lodgings all in accordance with Heian era Japan. Artisans and Geisha have reworked, over long periods, the 'rides' that once gave praise to capitalism, into testaments to humanity's praise to the Deva, the only true and just Gods.<br/><br/>The men are either Southern Shengriantist monks, religious pilgrims, or artisans who seek sanctuary from the harshness of Dust in the protected borders of Sel, the women fall similarly, either being Priestesses, pilgrims, Geisha, Maiko (Prospective Geisha/In training), or artisans. Generally, Sel citizens are a kind and peaceful, if slightly isolated and naive about Dust and the ways of the world.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tas"" type=""button"">Tas [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""steelblue"">Tas</font></div></div><br/><div class=""bb-right""><font color=""#00aeef"">Special Thanks to <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a> for writing this piece.</font></div><br/><font color=""lime"">Faction</font>: Aqueous<br/><font color=""lime"">Classification</font>: City<br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Population </font>: 190,500 Est.<br/><font color=""lime"">Production</font>: Bootlegging (alcohol and water), Live entertainment, Gambling, Whores<br/><font color=""lime"">Notable Areas</font>: The Kowloon Walled Skyscrapers, The Blue Light District, ""The Still"", River Dragon Arena, 50 Dragons Memorial, Khan's Yurt Shanty Town, Surrounding Corrupted Villages <br/><br/><font color=""lime"">Description</font>:<br/>Ah Tas. A glorious testament to the resolve of the seedier elements of the Old World Sino-Pacific culture. Although culturally Aqueon since the town's founding, almost days after the first Aqueous bunkers were creaked open, Tas was an independent territory for much of the first two centuries following the Fall. Their incorporation into Aqueous proper was (and still is) a highly discussed and debated topic-- Tas, despite being seen as 'dishonorable' by the Central and Northern Aqueous regions and having an Asura following that isolated Shengriantist Deva devotees and traditionalists alike. They were an undeniable financial asset to Aqueous-- built off of stolen and bootlegged water and alcohol, sure, but still, one that the Aqueous purists couldn't deny. <br/><br/>Following it's inclusion in Aqueous, Tas has been something of a black sheep among Aqueon cities. Although they fly the Aqueon flag. The city is a den of those willing to dedicate their lives to Old World vice, unofficially run by the River Dragon Triad. They're a territory fiercely devoted to their independence. Tas, via the River Dragons, is allied with the United Triads of Aqueous, as well as the Khans of the Sand Seas, and the traders of The School. The city has a large following of secessionists, who believe south Aqueous should separate from the greedy Central region and the silent Northern region. <br/><br/>The area around Tas is controlled exclusively by the Khans of the Sand Sea. Holding an agreement with the River Dragon Triad. The Khans, a loosely united force, easily identified by their creole Mongolian tongue, patchwork armor, wild hair, and yurts, patrol the areas of Southern, Western and Northern Aqueous, known collectively by locals as 'the Great Sand Sea' the area closest to Tas, the Southern Sand Sea, is known for it's traveling merchants, famous Aqueon wandering Geisha and Shengriantist monks (often protected by their own devoted caravans of Khans), as well as occasional shanty towns of exiled corrupted Immortal/Hollow fusions as well as the more dangerous wandering bands of low level hollow. Tas, both walled and insulated by a well populated yurt wall from visiting khans, only has to worry about its infamous water shortages and dry desert winds.<br/><br/>The River Dragons hold over 50,000 dedicated members among their ranks, but refuse to expand beyond the borders of Tas due to their honor and agreements with the other Triads and clusters of Khans. Of the city's population, 43,000 citizens reside in the 'The Kowloon Walled Skyscrapers,' an incredibly densely populated super slum, composed of 4 Skyscrapers connected by wall and layers of shanty town and ticky-tacky, modeled after the old world <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kowloon_Walled_City"" rel=""nofollow"">Kowloon Walled City</a>. Within the dragons are sights both astounding and horrifying-- as well as the pulled that claims to keep souls in an otherwise easily escapable atmosphere of fear and pain-- The Blue District-- The best whores, music, drugs, and soul in all of Dust proudly purporting the superiority of Tas' ethnic Chinese heritage over Central Aqueous' Japanese ancestry.<br/><br/>Those who live in the Walled Skyscrapers, tend to be heavily involved with the Dragons, or simply <span class=""bb-i"">in</span> the Dragons, and as such, the area is one where Aqueous rule is worth about as much as spit in a bucket. Anarchy reigns and violence is much more frequently employed to solve problems and visitors and residents alike often need to display more care to protect their lives than merely their wallets. They are an incredibly unique and intelligent people, though-- citizens are intellectual, and value ingenuity and creative thinking-- carpenters, pick pockets and fast talkers often share the same traits in Kowloon, Tas. Traits that improve the city within a city, and keep you alive, are reflected and amplified in these criminally minded citizens from birth. They are all also incredibly independent-- members of the Triad won't hesitate to remind you that the River Dragons are the result of 80+ years of deals, wars and conquests of 50 unique triads and gangs, each of which still influence the identity of the Dragons and Walled Skyscrapers. <br/><br/>All within about a block of each other, are the bits of land Tas and Kowloon find themselves less known for, but still manage to attract pilgrims nonetheless. The 50 Dragons Memorial and the River Dragon Arena are closely related areas of Kowloon-- the Memorial is an exquisite scavenged tin sculpture featuring busts of each Triad, Gang, and Tribe leader that led to the creation of the Dragons-- behind these busts are the emblems and mascots of the gangs, themselves surrounded by an impressively long and intricately sculpted tin river dragon. Inscriptions below the busts detail information of the old gangs, and well as plaques explaining the creation of the Dragons. On the Tin 'River Dragon' are the signatures of every member of the River Dragons-- past and present. This artistic monument, sculpted by Sel's finest, is in front of the River Dragon Arena a Colosseum recreated from an Old World football field. The Arena is the location of most of the city's music festivals, as well as all the city's sports-- most popular by far being the blood duels, sponsored by the River Dragons. <br/><br/>To contrast the heavily, Triad involved memorial and arena, the location known as ""The Still"" is a black hole of secrecy-- a club in one of the darker underground location of Kowloon-- the bar is invite only-- guarded by men with futuristic and impossible weaponry and <span class=""bb-i"">Old</span> Old World armor in seemingly perfect condition. These men speak an unknown sign language, and don't appear to share affiliations with any major factions.<br/><br/>Outside of Kowloon, one is given a much more 'normal' city. Although each citizen of Outer Tas is still almost completely economically independent on the Dragons that reside in Kowloon, dangers are much less frequent, protection payments are much rarer, and the only dangers come from STDs and gambling debts. Water is bootlegged from Central Aqueous here, and the general citizen is much less criminally active and also less likely to be Chinese-- or even distinctly Aqueon. Outer Tas, compared to the bedlam that is the excessive wealth swirled with the extreme poverty of Kowloon, is much more resemblant of a quiet, almost suburban, middle class area in a city like Serenity. <br/><br/>Just with more foreign tongues being spoken.</div></div></div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Creatures and Anomalies"" type=""button"">Creatures and Anomalies [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Reported Anomalies"" type=""button"">Reported Anomalies [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Apparitions"" type=""button"">Apparitions [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""gold"">Apparitions:</font> Often found in dark places or at night, these ghostly sightings are very deadly.

Ruined Modern (relics) , Dirty Modern (poorly manufactured); Modern in this dynamic would mean mostly ballistics, with plasma/beam/laser/particle: etc, weapons being much, much rarer. Even rarer is to find one that works more often than not.

Listed by rarity:: Plasma = Projectiles/streams of acidic goo. Beam = wider version of laser, less concentrated, more like a lethal sunburn than an disintegrating laser, like if you could turn a microwave into a gun. Lasers= Well, fucking lasers pew pew! Particle Beam weapons destroy at the atomic level. The rarer the weapon, the less ammo you can have for it. I apologize for not putting that last bit into the CS.

It's a desert wasteland. There only water is what flows through the pipes, should you be able to find them. Perhaps if the battle is next to a water faucet you could build up a substantial amount of power. Probably rupturing the pipe, letting the entire settlement die of dehydration, but hell, whatever.

As for the writing, everybody has their own style. Myself, I tend to write seriously, gritty, and gorey, then again I do have some comic relief, because I enjoy it every now again and no matter how hard ass you are life is funny sometimes. This is not to say that this is the place for laughing grenades, and idiocy. I like my writing to be more serious than utterly silly, but I don't mind good humored comedy, as long as the roleplay doesn't stray into anime rules, the three stooges, or scooby-doo, we should be fine.


<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h1"">Announcement</div></div>

The cast has been picked, thank you to rajin, tomahaw, and innoculous for applying. If you wish to know my reasoning on this you can PM me, but I've chosen those who I feel are more equipped to follow my standards, and the lash of my GM whip. You were either too slow, too generic, or too late. Constant errors in lore that's available to be reference have also played a factor in this, I do all this extra work to have my world better understood, not constantly mis-referenced. The crew I have now is about all the players I want at the moment, and these are the people who best grabbed my attention and focus, the most pleasing. I'm sorry, the life of an applicant is a hard one, best of luck in your travels.

The breakups are the hardest part &gt;_&lt;

That being said, Firecracker_, I did make you a promise back in Deadland and I intend to keep it. That and since I've previously played with you, I'm sure you'll aim to please.

Comparing the current date set (top right: O.P), to history&gt;The Immortals, that report was over a 100 years ago. You could have been two and sneezing fire from your ass for all I care. :)

IC post is up. I haven't slept in two days (technically) but I think it was pretty alright. Some description, some action. Now you should get a better picture about the ostracization of The Immortals.

Firecracker_ and Prophecy, you need to post your CS's in the ""characters"" tabs, as I said awhile ago. Idk what the delay on that is but they're complete, so let the world marvel at them. Also I need them up so I can hotlink the sheets to your name under ""the Cast"" hider.

<div class=""bb-h1"">Announcement</div>

Darcs will be joining us, I will update the list. Darcs-- That was a fantastic CS and that looked like a tremendous amount of work that you did in only a couple of days. My other players could take notes on not dragging their feet for the CS's. I enjoyed the read, and the bio was done in quite an interesting, and different way, which was refreshing. I see nothing wrong with your character as of yet, though as always this is subject to change. Regardless, welcome aboard, you are clear for IC. Additionally, when I write Serenity, I will add something about the crime syndicate there, drugs, and etc.


<div class=""bb-h2"">Second Announcement</div>

Character Sheets need to be finished. It's been just about two weeks, which is plenty of time.

My girlfriend will be departing tomorrow, as previously stated. However, she will be returning 4 days later (only for 3 days this time). I will be advancing the IC before she comes down.</div>"

Th-thanks guys! I've really enjoyed all the posts so far, they each have their own unique flavor to them-- especially with the action sequences, I noticed-- I'm looking forward to some character interactions.

I made a few assumptions on the part of the Aqueous, mainly that racial distribution would be Japanese people generally in charge and in the cities and people descended from other Asian ethnicities in the towns-- I can change that if it conflicts with anything.

Also, yeah, it'd probably be good to know what type of currency we have, what with being a super rich mafia character and all.</div>"

also, I find this a bit hard to believe. It's been over 300 years, and I think that at least some sort of currency should have risen up in at least the first 100 years, with the last 200 being the time it took for it to get widespread and something everybody used. Not talking the kind of paper money that we use IRL, but perhaps just coins made out of some metal, say, I dunno, tin? Brass? 

I'm okay with sticking to just bartering, but I do think that a currency system would've been at least attempted during those 300 years.

P.S
Evelina Quinn's character sheet is under revision. It (for some weird reason) doesn't happen often, but I suddenly had a pang of inferiority and I'm now re-writing just about everything. She'll stay the same character, but it should (hopefully) be of higher quality (I blame Darcs :P). </div>"

@The P.S:: My first IC post wasn't exactly top notch either, sick with two different ear infections in the same ear and half asleep. XD 

As for the currency sir. You doubt me. Think about it. After the apocalypse you have a pocket full of funny colored paper with dead people's faces on it, and maybe some semi-precious metal coins. Who cares? What use is that after society has collapsed, the government is gone, and you're faced with lawless marauders. The most important things, besides basic survival and food, are going to be Ammunition and Gasoline, or fuel. Followed by infrastructural things such as flowing water, electricity, an establishment of order.

So really there are a handful of things that would be considered valuable for trade, your funny colored money isn't one of it.
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Ammunition and Arms</li><li>Gasoline / Fuel</li><li>Cigarettes</li><li>Spices</li><li>Antibiotics &amp; Medicine</li><li>Food</li><li>Skills and Knowledge</li></ul>
Despite the fact that you'd have to find someone willing to make the money.. and what would you pay them with? How would you get everyone to agree? What would you backup an established currency that you could oh say, print? How would you establish an effective protocol to prevent inflation? How would you assure there would be no homemade currency in an apocalyptic world? 300 years and the only things as an established trade medium are useful things. How absurd :P

Now bullets, everybody needs those, the best part is, you make em, you shoot em, and the demand remains. Perhaps it was attempted, but really, what's the point? You have a faction of people who keep to themselves, a faction that are just a step higher than mindless savages, a faction that is more focused on their bindings of honor and tradition, a faction that values only knowledge and progress, and then the only faction wholly obsessed with establishing a trade empire. Respective order: Edenites, Forsaken, Aqueous, Gaens, Motum Diversum.

So I ask you again sir, when I could safely give you something you want, for something I want; rather than give you something, for a meaningless medium, and perhaps be unable to get what I want, meaning I demand more of this currency, meaning inflation; What's the point?</div>"

But even then, I just find it... strange, I guess you could say, that 300 years have passed with nothing but simple trade and bartering.

I already think most things through, you just need to ask the right questions xD. Trade and barter is not simple, it's an art. Each sides have their downfalls, I however, have provided a perfectly reasonable, realistic argument for my side, and I have yet to be convinced otherwise haha. Wealth can be measured in innumerable ways, most commonly it's just how we perceive it. If I have no need for perfume, then that would not be valuable to me, which in turn would not lead the salesperson to aggregate wealth from me. However, if I am in need of a firearm, then the gunsmith would be quite wealthy as I perceive him against my needs to his. He needs very little from me, yet I need much from him. This creates a contrast of supply and demand. I must have something the gunsmith wants, and obtain something from nothing I must be useful, to be useful I must have a skill, to have a skill I must learn. By learning a skill, applying the skill, I can now become the gunsmith. I can be useful to society as a whole, I do not weigh down the market with non-skill endeavors like cure-all tonics and miracle herbs. By paying a set price for a ""cure-all"" one without use could be of considerable wealth, however, in comparison to what I need, versus what I am willing to give up, versus what he wants, creates a situation for haggling.

In the end, using barter instead of a medium creates a complex dynamic of goods exchange, which is quite efficient and functional. People who are useful, survive. People who are not, do not. It's that simple, but the practise itself is a living, evolving thing. I see little point to a set medium in a world such as this.


As for Evelina's Reference picture. Find me a face you like, and I can change the eyes pretty easily. You could even find a stock image of cat eyes and I could add them, or just tell me what color you want. Maybe add elongated canines too, if the mouth is agape.</div>"

Updating time to afternoon! Awright

I'm probably going to rewrite my first post. It still bothers me that I wasn't 100% when I did it.

And I wrote it half asleep. Literally, I dozed off twice.

Just finished the read. I wonder what you're brewing up Fire, heh.

Re-did my intro post. Fully awake and not ill this time. Much more pleased.

also, I find this a bit hard to believe. It's been over 300 years, and I think that at least some sort of currency should have risen up in at least the first 100 years, with the last 200 being the time it took for it to get widespread and something everybody used. Not talking the kind of paper money that we use IRL, but perhaps just coins made out of some metal, say, I dunno, tin? Brass? 

I'm okay with sticking to just bartering, but I do think that a currency system would've been at least attempted during those 300 years.

P.S
Evelina Quinn's character sheet is under revision. It (for some weird reason) doesn't happen often, but I suddenly had a pang of inferiority and I'm now re-writing just about everything.

@The P.S:: My first IC post wasn't exactly top notch either, sick with two different ear infections in the same ear and half asleep. XD 

As for the currency sir. You doubt me. Think about it. After the apocalypse you have a pocket full of funny colored paper with dead people's faces on it, and maybe some semi-precious metal coins. Who cares? What use is that after society has collapsed, the government is gone, and you're faced with lawless marauders. The most important things, besides basic survival and food, are going to be Ammunition and Gasoline, or fuel. Followed by infrastructural things such as flowing water, electricity, an establishment of order.

So really there are a handful of things that would be considered valuable for trade, your funny colored money isn't one of it.
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Ammunition and Arms</li><li>Gasoline / Fuel</li><li>Cigarettes</li><li>Spices</li><li>Antibiotics &amp; Medicine</li><li>Food</li><li>Skills and Knowledge</li></ul>
Despite the fact that you'd have to find someone willing to make the money.. and what would you pay them with? How would you get everyone to agree? What would you backup an established currency that you could oh say, print? How would you establish an effective protocol to prevent inflation? How would you assure there would be no homemade currency in an apocalyptic world? 300 years and the only things as an established trade medium are useful things. How absurd :P

Now bullets, everybody needs those, the best part is, you make em, you shoot em, and the demand remains. Perhaps it was attempted, but really, what's the point? You have a faction of people who keep to themselves, a faction that are just a step higher than mindless savages, a faction that is more focused on their bindings of honor and tradition, a faction that values only knowledge and progress, and then the only faction wholly obsessed with establishing a trade empire. Respective order: Edenites, Forsaken, Aqueous, Gaens, Motum Diversum.

So I ask you again sir, when I could safely give you something you want, for something I want; rather than give you something, for a meaningless medium, and perhaps be unable to get what I want, meaning I demand more of this currency, meaning inflation; What's the point?<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/aeonumbra"">@Aeonumbra</a></footer></blockquote>

But look on the bright side! It forces you to think a little ^^ Sorry if that sounds insulting, btw, not meant as such. But still, me asking this made you write that response. It made you write down why currency is not a thing. 

But even then, I just find it... strange, I guess you could say, that 300 years have passed with nothing but simple trade and bartering. It makes getting some things easier, t'is true, but it also makes other things more difficult. Not really possible to measure ""wealth"" if you can't measure it in a number. At the very least it's much more difficult to do so.

I already think most things through, you just need to ask the right questions xD. Trade and barter is not simple, it's an art. Each sides have their downfalls, I however, have provided a perfectly reasonable, realistic argument for my side, and I have yet to be convinced otherwise haha. Wealth can be measured in innumerable ways, most commonly it's just how we perceive it. If I have no need for perfume, then that would not be valuable to me, which in turn would not lead the salesperson to aggregate wealth from me. However, if I am in need of a firearm, then the gunsmith would be quite wealthy as I perceive him against my needs to his. He needs very little from me, yet I need much from him. This creates a contrast of supply and demand. I must have something the gunsmith wants, and obtain something from nothing I must be useful, to be useful I must have a skill, to have a skill I must learn. By learning a skill, applying the skill, I can now become the gunsmith. I can be useful to society as a whole, I do not weigh down the market with non-skill endeavors like cure-all tonics and miracle herbs. By paying a set price for a ""cure-all"" one without use could be of considerable wealth, however, in comparison to what I need, versus what I am willing to give up, versus what he wants, creates a situation for haggling.

In the end, using barter instead of a medium creates a complex dynamic of goods exchange, which is quite efficient and functional. People who are useful, survive. People who are not, do not. It's that simple, but the practise itself is a living, evolving thing. I see little point to a set medium in a world such as this.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/aeonumbra"">@Aeonumbra</a></footer></blockquote>

So I was thinking about this. In terms of the Castalia Family wealth, they've got hotels, brothels, clubs, casinos, bootlegging stills and a bunch of weapons and drugs to their name, so I mean-- that's wealth, but that's all not something people get paid in, you know? Not all of it. Motum Diversum is advanced-- they have trade and government and regular jobs and apartments and shit-- everyone does trade with them, there would need to be some common currency that you could then trade for other goods that you could also barter with.

Economically speaking, today's money comes solely from the loss of a gold standard and banks passing out a fiat currency for convenience. I think people, after the Fall WOULD switch to a completely barter based economic system, with guns and bullets being the most important things.

Bullets have this inherent power to them. Someone with a lot of bullets offers protection, they can take what they want, they'd resemble gold from the old world-- people who crawled out of the bunkers, used to a fiat currency, would be looking for that as they bartered-- that's something I think is important.

Because proto-governments, even ones with raw natural resources to exchange, and like two or three banks if ANY, thrive off of an economy, and economy that consumers contribute too.

How long is a dam worker going to accept water as payment? I think everyone, while still bartering, would naturally shift to also using some medium for convenience. 

That medium would be bullets-- Old World bullets mostly. They'd be like gold, there would be a precedent for using them, their ancestors used them, they have an inherent value, they look pretty.

Really pretty Old World bullets, for guns that didn't even exist or work anymore would be the most valuable, polished, giant sniper rifle bullets would be like hundred dollar bills, and it would go down in order of decreasing scarcity until you got to the pennies that are Dust made junk rounds.

I don't know, I still see barter being a thing, but I just don't see a guy walking into a bar and plopping down a liter of gas and asking for a beer-- or like, people paying admission to a club with some food.

Then again, maybe this is just the Fallout fan in me missing muh caps.</div>"
284,The Dust,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-02-13 10:22:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">That is a solid arguement Darcs, but even the standards a a tad different between bottle caps and bullets. Bottle caps are just shiny baubles, with no real use, as also played out in one of the fallout games (3, or new vegas, I forget) they could be manufactured. It would be pretty bad if that 3 bottle cap beer went up to 120 bottle caps because some douche face was making as many as he could every need.

Bullets on the other hand, aren't technically a trade medium like dollars, cents, rupees, or bottle caps. They are a useful item, as you stated. A useful item that can be spent, or becomes destroyed upon use, thus creating demand for more without the excessive stockpiling. This is still technically just barter. I may not have made it apparent the bullets are the widely used ""bottle cap"" system. But I did say it.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">World runs on trade and barter, no currency system but bullets are widely accepted, high grade being worth more.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/aeonumbra"">@Aeonumbra</a></footer></blockquote>

I do agree with you however that the rarity of the bullet does determine its worth. Dirty &gt; High grade &gt; Laser / Plasma &gt; Heavy / Special. One may not have the gun to use the very expensive ammo with, but it's the prospect that one 'could' have the gun, or just spend it, in which case the before mentioned prospect still comes into play. Bottle caps existed with no other purpose than a trade medium, and its rarity was supposed to maintain its value. Bullets have more purpose than just trade, but their wide availability and usefulness, eg: high demand, makes them the ""money"" for this world, without actually calling it that.

But for the most part, we agree with each other. I just don't see them as a trade medium, rather they are an item with a usefulness compared to that of water or air. What's the point of breathing all that free, irradiated air, if a mutant dog chews your legs off. I see them as a barter item with their value weighed against their usefulness and demand, technically maintaining a steady economy with bullet trade.</div>"

Hmm, I was kinda staying with the same theme as that The Security Chief has access to a lot more information that most don't, as hinted to when he knows Ulver's full name, when most don't, but I can go ahead and add in a few discrepancies, or just full on rewrite the scene all together. I was just thinking that a Chief of security in one of the Gaen's capitals would have access to heavy information. Plus, there were other survivors to the attack I thought? Maybe they could've passed information along?</div>"

Also about the attack. Technically Firecracker_ was correct in adapting it to world lore. Nowhere in your post did you actually describe the attackers other than clearly stating that they were in fact, too accurate and too well trained to be bandits. There is a line where bento mentions officially unsanctioned raid and thorne agrees, to which a high commanding chief officer (Like Firecracker's chiefly guy) could definitely know about. All those escaped slaves aren't under a gag order, and even if they were it wouldn't be for long, also I feel even the stupidest slave could put two and two together if they were listening to Bento's conversation, which considering he is ""The Raging Storm"" I would assume all the focus would be on him.

It's likely that it would be a believable, common rumor, denied by the winged guardians.

Yeah, the plan was to make an entrance with a show of power by offing a Wing that Motum Diversum couldn't openly defend at the risk of political suicide. She had the PI send his records to people higher up so they knew, while the people just see the Castalias ride in and slice up the guy in an overly showy manner. He was like a literal sacrificial pig or something.

Although... now I'm sure they'll be plenty of fighting and assassination attempts on Castalias in Russel now, all off the books, of course, from both Winged Guardians and from anti-Immortal extremists who think he was right... Can't wait to see what you cook up for that XD</div>"

I like it when people take creative reigns, really, a war could have been avoided if I didn't want a war, it's simply something I've chosen based on how you played your character, which is entirely fine (and awesome).

However, Fire, she is technically correct. There is no moon.

The nights are dark.

Very dark.

I hope you brought a lamp.

I'll keep up with you all on my phone though, so no worries, you just won't see much IC from me for 7 days (or so).

Also I made some changes to Lucania's CS, there are multiple factions she's aligned with and a few now openly against her, so I figured that'd be relevant to include, I added a non-familial relations section so that I could include her sloppy drunk make-out, and also added like 20 reference pictures no one will ever need or use from her family, courtesy of Deviant Art.

Speaking of which, I actually found some pictures that reminded me of other characters, too, mainly;

There was an original, but I closed the page before I could copy the link, because I'm a chump who doesn't like giving credit to the artists.</div></div>

There were a few good portraits that were a few edits away from being an Alex without the mask, too, but by that point I just wanted to escape the rabbit hole of Deviant Art portraits.

I will! I still need to edit in some more Castalia clan pics, plus it's also kinda just nice to see the art some people are capable of producing.

I used to think Deviant Art was this hellscape where sonic fancharacters went to die, and I guess that's kind of true, but it's also got this genuine talent that you can just literally just SCROLL past. Now that I think about it, I guess people probably hold the same opinion about websites like this...

I'm big enough to admit it--

Well, I'm thinking that that's gonna be a pretty big happening, and one of which where the Winged Guardians or Castalia family may call upon outside help. Since Ulver is a fairly well known bounty hunter, does it seem plausible that he'd be called in to assist either side achieve certain goals?

Religion provides a certain comfort, and those who could afford to survive the end of the world as they knew it, spent a significant time returning to the religions of their homelands. The 30 years spent in the bunkers saw a rise in the reliance and understanding of those beliefs, and those who knew more; who preserved documents, who could recreate recall the proper rites and rituals, those who could teach it, or at least what an imperfect and privileged memory could  tell of it. Basically, saw themselves emerging as leaders in the world of Dust.  

The bunkers in what is now the Aqueous region quickly formed tribes based on ethnic lines, splitting between the Korean north, the Central Asian south, and the Japanese central region. Over 300 years they became united over shared resources, negotiations, the rise of other nations, tradition, and, the cross pollination of their religions.

Today, this religion is known as Shengriantō. 

Shengriantō is a fusion between the Old World religions of Taoism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Tengrism, and Shinto with heavy ethical-sociopolitical teachings being derived from Confucianism and the ways of Ancient Japan. Founded officially in 2105, Shengriantō has a focus on maintaining honor, following the traditions of your bloodline and country, and ancestor worship. Shengriantō believes enlightenment can be achieved through particular the cultivation of an honorable life basically 'picking up from where your ancestors left off' and as such has a heavy emphasis on the importance of the family, both through blood and oath. This stance rests on the belief that human beings are teachable, improvable, and perfectible through personal and communal endeavor. 

From it's Buddhist parents, it derives that the ultimate goal is to reach transcendence, not by elevating oneself to the status of the gods (the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span>, and <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span>). But instead, by living in harmony with the gods, nature, and others you can achieve immortality for your consciousness (<span class=""bb-i"">shen</span>) practically, by going about a ""right way of living."" In Shengriantō, there is no morality and ethics separated into 'right' and 'wrong,' instead, there is what is honorable, and dishonorable. By living an honorable life, your <span class=""bb-i"">shen</span>achieves immortality through those you touch.

In this life, while living honorably, we must also achieve feng shui with others (through shared traditions and oaths), with nature (through active rituals), and the gods, through worship-- One must only allign themselves with one group of the gods-- the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span> (those gods who represent perseverance and creation) <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span> (those who represent power and destruction) and the <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span> (those who represent intelligence and rebirth). Asking for the favor of gods outside of your chosen pantheon is seen as one of the most dishonorable acts one can make, and while those who worship a pantheon that is not your own are not considered enemies, you are to consider those who share your own pantheon family. If a homeless man were to come to your home and ask for food and shelter, and he shared your pantheon, it would be considered as dishonorable as switching pantheons altogether.

Breakdown by region:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Northern Aqueons (descended from Old World Koreans) follow Shengriantō for it's ethical and philosophical virtue, and tend not to allign themselves with the gods</li><li>Central Aqueons (descended from Old World Japanese) have waning or casual faith in Shengriantō and tend to worship the <span class=""bb-i"">kami</span></li><li>Southern Aqueons (descended from Old World Central Asias) practice Shengriantō rigourously and worship the <span class=""bb-i"">asura</span> and the <span class=""bb-i"">deva</span></li></ul></div></div>
I was thinking of adding something about Orb worship, but I dunno, the Edenites prolly have that covered

Class 2 - can be killed by many standards/guards or an immortal.

Class 3 - a whole battalion of guards, with some vehicles, or two+ immortals.

Class 4 - an army of guards, with vehicles, and heavy artillery, and they still will probably lose. 4+ Immortals are recomended.

Class 5 - Another Class 5.

If you wanted to do mount Nike you could have a Greek theme for major landmarks.

Good, me and Miss Mono are two or three posts from finishing, I believe. I'd like her to kick off day 2 as we described some early morning elements in the club which Evelina and Luciana will probably see when they wake up.

And, as for Tas, that's fine. Are there any others you want to claim so I don't do them? (Though it will probably be about 9-10 days before I can get to it, unless my insomnia strikes and I don't go to bed with my girlfriend.)

Trigun is fantastic, right up there with cowboy bebop, btw 'Tank' is the best intro ever. I dream that shit.

As for shows, you came to the right person;

Have you worked your way through all the classics in the animu and chinese cartoons? Neon Genesis? All of Miyazaki's movies? FLCL? Panty and Stocking? Samurai Champloo?

You might like Noragami, Soul Eater, Psycho Pass, Samurai Flamenco, Arise: Ghost in the Shell, Black Butler (only season 1 tho), Knights of Sidonia, Princess Jellyfish...

Also if you have Netlix and just want SHOW shows then I rec; Twin Peaks (watch it, rewatch it, I don't care SEASON 3 2016 GET HYPE), Breaking Bad (obligatory), Mad Men, Weeds, Binge watching old Godzilla movies and Sphagetti Westerns, Peaky Blinders, Black Mirror, Dollhouse, Bates Motel, Park &amp; Rec, American Horror Story, Caprica, I was going to suggest more but OH SHIT I WENT TO SEE MY LIST TO SEE IF I COULD GIVE ANYMORE RECOMMENDATIONS AND OH MY GODS HOUSE OF CARDS COMES OUT TOMORROW ASFFDGHFHFGJHGJHGJKGHK GET HYPE-- NOT JUST HYPE GET HYPE SQUARED-- GET HYPE CUBED MOTHERFUCKERSfdsgdfhgfjhgjhgk

Nah. All but the one about cats (Totoro &lt;3). Best 6 episodes ever /tear. No. Not big on samurai.

No. Meh. Nah. Again, samurai, nah. Meh, cop drama. No. Didnt hear of that one. Nah.

Never heard of twin peaks. BB is fucking boring, I used it to beat my insomnia, only watched up to the mexicans in the basement. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. AHS is.. interesting, watched asylum... meh. And finally, nah.

I like things like orange is the new black, rubber (netflix movie about a tire), the afore mentioned three I am watching, john dies at the end Big bang (&lt;3 science ) zombies, (ie: dawn of the dead #1, any of the 28 days/weeks movies. Resident evil is kind of dumb.

Animes I liked.. attack on titan, eureka 7 (only robot anime I really enjoyed. Also the only show I cried for, and I watched Old Yeller and a host of chiq flix). Utawarerumono (fucking amazing, #1 hands down). Kasimasi (yay lesbians). highschool of the dead. Cowboy bebop, wildstar, something on the viridian planet, some show about space janitors. Patema Inverted (great!!!!! Movie)

Things I dont like; Bleach, Naruto, One piece, anything gundam and all spinoffs, Full metal alchemist, steins gate, or most other mainstream animes.

I become annoyed with things very easily, for no reason. 80% of movies I can guess events, twists, and plot lines  (blame my grandma, she was 100% never wrong about anything ever, and i have google.)

Like the saw movies. I actually get mad, I love puzzles, I solved or found errors in most of his puzzles. 

Scary movies don't scare me, except ones that use binaural beats to program sound induced chemical respones of fear in your brain.

Plot holes irritate the crap out of me.

Ie: its dark, the door is open, obvious signs of an intruder, ""hello?"" The victim calls out.  ""Yea, im in the kitchen, want anything before I murder the crap out of you?"" The murder thinks in his head.

I like zombies, simple, little room for critical judgement, unless someone is being obviously dumb  or sacrificed. 

If I wrote as hard as I critiqued movies I would have so many novels.

So, in conclusion, I'm kind of picky, and kind of that douche who frequently says ""omfg, really?"".</div>"

Well when the collab comes it's going to be a giant wall of text, so I apologize for that but it is certainly coming to a close soon. Shouldn't be much longer.

While I certainly understand the aesthetic of having everything occurring chronologically, I don't think the RP would be ruined if there was a post or two out of order. It's your call though. The collab will likely be up either tonight or at the very latest tomorrow. Darcs and I are (not confirmed, but I suspect) in different timezones, so please forgive the wait.</div>"

<font color=""lime"">Description</font>:
If Tas is a testament to the vices of Old World Sino-pacific culture, then Sel serves as it's literal opposite. Less a town and more a gigantic temple dedicated to the cause of preserving the virtues, traditions, practices and culture of the Old World and Dust. Sel also creates art, religious texts and trains those accepted in the ways of the Geisha both Old World and new and serves as a gathering place for Southern Shengriantist Monks. At one point, Sel was an Old World amusement park, miraculously preserved by the Fall, it's transformation into the plastic sacred ground that it is today was done by the first early Shengriantist monks and volunteer help from the Khans. In a 200 year event known now as ""The Divine Transformation,"" the grounds were re-purposed into several traditional temples, shrines, statues dedicated to the gods, meditation grounds, and training groves. 

The area outside of Sel is generally flat desert dotted with shrubbery and mutated flowers. The closer to Sel one gets, the more flowers one can see-- an attempt to regain the beauty of the land by monks, now forgotten. Technically not part of Sel, would be the extensive community of tents one would have to approach before getting into Sel proper, these are the yurts owned by the Khans of sand-- a nomadic group of men and women dedicated to the days of the Mongolian Empire. The have a spiritual agreement with the Monks of Sel and have a constant garrison of protection surrounding the city. Further away from Sel, are the packs of hollow and corrupted Immortals-- which seem to be increasing by the day. 

The interior of Sel is the impressive result of 200 years of religious dedication. What was once a mouse themed amusement part, now holds stone shrines and wooden temples and lodgings all in accordance with Heian era Japan. Artisans and Geisha have reworked, over long periods, the 'rides' that once gave praise to capitalism, into testaments to humanity's praise to the Deva, the only true and just Gods.

The men are either Southern Shengriantist monks, religious pilgrims, or artisans who seek sanctuary from the harshness of Dust in the protected borders of Sel, the women fall similarly, either being Priestesses, pilgrims, Geisha, Maiko (Prospective Geisha/In training), or artisans. Generally, Sel citizens are a kind and peaceful, if slightly isolated and naive about Dust and the ways of the world.</div></div></div>"

Whatever Midori is-- in that vein, &lt;3 Bjork and FKA Twigs, Spaghetti western scores, FlyLo and like, TOKiMONSTA... I make sojourns into noise and like, vaporwave.<br/><br/>I don't know, does that sound pretentious? I just mean to say, that there is a lot of music, and I like a lot of it and I want to find even more that I like?<br/><br/>I CAN say solidly that right now; I've got a big El-P fixation, my fave albums right now are <span class=""bb-i"">Funcrusher Plus</span> - Company Flow and <span class=""bb-i"">High Water</span> - El-P and the Blue Series Continuum. <br/><br/>All time wise; I listen to a lot of Amy Winehouse, my favorite song easily being 'Take The Box'<br/><br/>And Recently; I listened to 'Come on! Feel the Illinoise!' off of what might be Sufjan Steven's magnum opus, <span class=""bb-i"">Illinoise,</span> like 50 times because I felt really inspired by it. I literally laced it and it's themes into a kind of trippy, time jumpy, heavily backstory involved post. <br/><br/>I do get like that sometimes, where I'll just become obsessed with listening to the same song over and over again when writing something. For Lucania's backstory and first post it was 'Blue Velvet' and 'The Real Folk Blues.'<br/><br/>Hope that answers your question...! Or, at least, like, I don't know, assuages some curiosity?

Chaos, death, and destruction are where the heavy metals, death metals, etc. come in.<br/><br/>I can't really do anything with words, as I tend to start listening and stop focusing on writing.

Since gold is one of those metals that can freely interact with the inside of the human body without being rejected, all being golden and presumably sprinkling gold flakes in the product would do is lower the amount of actual meth you deliver to your system. Still, there's always the social high you can get from bragging about it, and I imagine, just like with any of the LOADS of golden things rich people eat on a daily, there's this huge placebo bonus high you get from it. Because it's as fucking golden as Ponyboy and YOU'RE consuming it.<br/><br/>So yeah. Gold meth. Adding that one to the ol' bucket list, I guess.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/>As far as the RP goes though-- that'd be hella expensive. They'd need ins with any gold mines, which I mean, <span class=""bb-i"">maaaybe</span> in the Aqueon mountains? Because like, the Castalia's don't do deals with the Forsaken, at least not to Lucania's knowledge. So it'd need to be an Aqueon mine, they'd need to have an in, which is admittedly possible since they're allies with the Yakuza... <br/><br/>But then they'd ALSO need to either have an in with one of the towns that processes gold (and other metals! Because, like, if they were in on the metal game, it'd totally have to be for more than drug ego, gotta make those bullets to stay outta the red!) OR their own, like... you know? Those places they melt metals? Where Vladimira grew up? They'd need their own private one if they weren't doing deals with towns.<br/><br/>Which , I mean, that all seems implausible. They do have ins with pawn shops and jewelry stores, so they COULD do that for gold, but then how much scavenged and newly made golden jewelry exists in Dust? Buying and/or taking jewelry from Castalia protected and run stores-- is deff more likely than them having stakes in a mine, but it'd only be less expensive in the short term. <br/><br/>Long term wise, they'd be using POUNDS of golden jewelry a day. They'd still need to melt it down or shave it into flakes, which is expensive, and when you consider how little scavenged golden jewelry there must be in Dust, how little demand there must be for new new golden jewelry to be made, and how slowly that all makes its way into Castalia stores in Motum Diversum (buying from Aqueous Yakuza is just an unneeded expense) then you realize how easily that'd drive up the market price for gold. It'd be a hella expensive business venture in the long term.<br/><br/>They'd THEN need to convince those Gaen scientists in their employ to use gold, one of the best metals for the types of experiments that live for, in the drugs that are basically just their rent to the Castalias...<br/><br/>THEN they'd be the problem of market value! I mean, sure, people still like gold, I doubt the gold standard would be DEAD after 400 years underground where the money once based off of gold is worthless, but like... I don't know-- only the educated and rich are going to see value in golden meth, average bikers looking for crank aren't going to CARE if it's golden, they couldn't afford what you'd be charging for-- all those deals made, all that labor, and the inherent value in gold that would be debated in Dust at best and outright denied by some poorer people who live by the gun-- selling it for cheaper would be cheating yourself multiple ways. Because then you'd be selling all the work that went into it short and DESTROYING the reason the niche market of rich people WOULD pay full market value for it. And even if you did throw caution to the wind and sell it cheaper, you'd need to sell more in greater quantities just to break even, which would itself incur even more 'hush-hush' payments to the Wings, more travel expenses, and more unnecessary risk.<br/><br/>I mean, chemically speaking you SHOULD sell lower, since you're technically chemically selling what is basically watered down meth. But I guess I already explained how I see the social benefits out weighing it...<br/><br/>You could sell cheapo crank to those who can afford it and reserve the gold stuff for rich people (they couldn't be educated though, or they'd see that it's a scam). It's an incredibly niche market, and you'd be working even harder to sell. Since it'd pretty much be ONLY the Motum Diversum elite-- it's not like the Castalias can sell to the Aqueon 1%, not without incurring WAY more fees than it's worth from the Yakuza.<br/><br/>So THEN it's a matter of 'Are there enough stupid, rich people-- most likely with heavy political connection or politicians themselves-- who will pay full price for golden meth-- and not sell me out-- to make a profit with this?'<br/><br/>The Castalias are gamblers, sure, but they ain't stupid.<br/><br/>(Well, Big Devil is, but he isn't in the leadership)<br/><br/>So yeah. Golden meth is a stillborn venture. <span class=""bb-i"">Maaaybe</span> golden angel dust might work?<br/><br/>I mean, unless you mean they dye it gold, or something. But then wouldn't it kinda look like frozen pee?<br/><br/>#postironicoveranalysis<br/><br/></div>"

I have plans for far into the future, merging with another world I had created. On that world water is deadly, and since Dust will be technically located within that world, rain on Dust would also be deadly. I have an explanation for why it does not rain on Dust, but that is to be explored in story. I also have an explanation for why it just rained.<br/><br/>I read an article recently about using ionizers of negative and positive charge, and how they could be used to coax negative and positive air particles to separate, carrying dust particles upwards, and creating clouds that absorb moisture. Now I figured this was all too technical and such, and this is a fantasy world.<br/><br/>Aeshma/Alex can attract rainclouds based on this ionizing theory (large amounts of static electricity)<br/>I figure that Bento, oh windcaller, could make it rain if he really wanted to by whipping the air around enough until it became dense and absorbed moisture. I also figured that mister Ivan ""A"" could do the same, in principle, by stirring up a large amount of dust into the atmosphere.<br/><br/>Basically anybody with wind, earth(dust/sand), or electricity powers can make it rain, short of just straight controlling weather phenomena altogether.<br/><br/>So to recap, it does not rain on Dust. It is a wondrous, momentous event. The current storm ranges from all of Russel City, to a few miles south and south east.<br/><br/>Also, be aware. If you read the recent submissions under ""History"", the video post is going to turn the people against the Immortals. What this means is I no longer expect so many friendly faces. This new information is going to make people scared, and fearful even more so of the Immortals, to the point of being hunted rather than just looked down upon.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>It has been asked that I make a statement on the events with Kapuchu and Monochromatic Rainbow, so I will do so, only this once.<br/><br/>To sum it up, Kapuchu, Mono, and I had our.. creative differences. What neither of them could seem to understand is that this is my roleplay, and I will run things how I wish. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding something. If I want something just because it's cool, I will probably implement it, because who doesn't like cool things and ideas? As a GM, I fully understand that it can be difficult getting along in another GM's roleplay, especially when he makes the mistake of giving you the false ideal that you have more power than you do. No more Co-GMs for me, not for some time anyways.<br/><br/>Character Wise, let me explain my decisions here. Yes, I did get a little wishy-washy with the whole native alphabet thing, but ultimately I went with public opinion. It was something I had never encountered before, and frankly I wasn't sure how to proceed on this new idea. Everybody makes mistakes. I owned up for that. We had differing opinions on how Vladimira's power actually functioned, from fluid-like manipulation, to clay-like, to what I was thinking, more of a forceful crumpling/bending/uncrumpling. In the end I tried to compromise by letting her have it as a special ability, to mold metal almost clay like, despite the powerful implications of that. Mono was also unhappy that I made a statement about the metal being manipulated weakening slightly, and I repeatedly made it clear that this was just really an aesthetic thing I was talking about. She forced a numerical value out of me by repeatedly badgering me and refusing to understand that the statement literally had zero effect on her character, so yes, I did say it becomes 25% weaker because I was fed up. However, I intended to make it clear that I had only said that because of the continuing argument and attempt at forcing information out of me that I did not have a clear definition on, especially when such a thing was unneeded.<br/><br/>This was after multiples arguments on what creative ideals I was thinking about. There is a difference between opinions, being constructive and blatantly arguing with me, even after I tried to end the argument. Did you see the entire thing? No, I kept it away from the OOC because I felt it had no place here. Did you see the parts that reinforced Kapu's attempt at slandering my name and status as a GM (despite his thinly veiled compliment), Yes. Did he release my personal information to the public through screen captures? Yes. Did you see the whole scope? No. Did you see the parts where I admitted the actual mistakes I had made, or the compromises I tried to make, or the times I tried to end the argument before it got to the point of complete and total frustration? No. <br/><br/>So lets get something very clear, right now. If you do not like how I run things, to not continue to badger me until you manage to sway me from my position. Ultimately, I will go back to what -I- want to do, not what you want. The great thing is, this is completely voluntary. You do not have to be here. I appreciate you being here, but that in no way entitles you to a share to hold on to. See, Kapuchu and Mono treated this like it was a Council, and I was just head councilman for show. I was the ideal man, but when I had an idea they didn't like, they usually refused to let the point drop and argued until I got pissed off. Not to sound like a child, but this is the only way I can phrase this. This is my roleplay. This is my world. This is my idea, I have complete and utter creative freedom and the power to do anything I please. If I want flying llamas that spit acidic poison that also sends you on a drug trip, by god I will do that. (Don't get your hopes up on that, I was just making a point.)<br/><br/>When I come to somebody and ask them what they think about something, I do not expect to be argued with until you get your way. You do not get to choose how this roleplay is run, I do. Furthermore, what Kapuchu and Mono failed to draw the line between is Realism vs Fantasy. Many of the problems they had were because it wasn't totally 100% realistic, at which point I countered with ""How realistic is it for Alex to shoot lightning from her hands again?"". Get what I'm saying? I'm the only person who can draw the line between too realistic and too much fantasy. I prefer a little creative fantasy honestly. It's imaginary, make believe, with a large tablespoon of realism. If I want something realistic, It's because that's how I want it to fit into my world. If I'm alright with something being unrealistic, fantastical, whimsical, whatever, that's because I feel it fits in my world. <br/><br/>I'm not bad mouthing either of them, and if I did it's due to my abrasive filterless personality. They are exceptional roleplayers, with great ideas between the two of them. The real problem was the disagreements with my ideas and trying to force their perspectives on me. ""You can't do this.."" because, or ""That can't happen.."" because. Honestly, I'm sad to see Kapuchu go. Perhaps in time we can repair this friendship, he was my first real friend on here. He's been with me through the first rendition of World's Collide, Deadland, Shadow's Solace, His rendition of World's Collide (his 1st, not 2nd.), and Dust. It's disheartening, but I feel like a creative weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I'm not longer threatened with their displeasure, and I once more have creative control back over my own roleplay. <br/><br/>To be clear, I will always hear your ideals. From time to time, I may come to you and ask your opinion on something. If I feel something should be some way, then that's pretty much how it's going to be. You can make your case, and if you persuade me then sure, but repeated attempts at arguing my decision are not helpful. I absolutely love it when you express your creative freedoms and ideals, and if I have an issue with something I will come to you.<br/><br/>Since Kapuchu brought this out into the public, you all are welcome to your comments, discussions, and opinions. Please try to refrain from bad mouthing anybody, I said try. If you do it unintentionally then it can be edited. I will answer all questions and concerns publicly in favor of transparency. I have nothing to hide, except my secrets. Hehe :)<br/><br/>I'd also like to apologize. I don't know why Kapuchu felt the need to do what he did, instead of just respectfully leaving. But it happened, I hope we can all move on from this together.</div>"

This world is yours, I won't argue that- but when you put shackles on the character someone else created it's something I see as a respectable qualm. It's why I don't blame them for leaving honestly. People can govern themselves just fine if you trust them like you claim to have trusted them, and their characters will explore their capabilities with the same resourcefulness as their creators. I won't go into examples because it's not my argument but you placing previously undecided restrictions on a character isn't a proper way to GM.<br/><br/>My point here is Aeo, you were not in the wrong because it is your RP. Just because you're not in the wrong doesn't make it right though and some people may choose not to tolerate your rules. That's what I feel everyone should know; Kapu and Mono left out of frustration from things being taken, and not because things weren't given to them. So long as we're clear on that.<br/><br/>EDIT: I have yet to read the new IC post and need to log off for now. Might get around to it tomorrow. Just thought I'd mention that.</div>"
891,The Dust,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-04-19 07:35:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/bobert778"">@bobert778</a><br/><br/>Two things first off; to be fair, I did mention the argument about Mono's character. Secondly, I did not mention Kapu's character because there was no real argument there, we stated our points on it and that was pretty much it. I stated my concerns, he responded, and I responded, and then all this happened. I will touch back on that in a moment.<br/><br/>Now, let's start here. This situation with the characters started out because I did trust them to govern themselves. So, let's talk about Mono's character first. The only shackle that was placed on her character wasn't a real shackle, it was a shackle Mono envisioned upon herself based on what I was saying, she failed to understand the point I was trying to convey. I had said, ""By manipulating metal, it becomes compromised, like it's not as strong as unmanipulated steel would be."" I then tried to ease her concerns by letting her know that what I had said was purely aesthetic, it had absolutely zero effect on the strength of the metal she wields. I then followed it up by how unimportant what I actually said was. Keep in mind, this argument comes after a host of other arguments against creative ideas I was pitching for constructive feedback. It is very apparent to me now that if she does not like something, she is going to argue the point to death regardless of how much you try to end the conversation. I made it repeatedly apparent that the compromised nature of the metal literally did not matter, purely an aesthetic statement.<br/><br/>So casting that aside, there real argument we have about Vladimira was about how her power actually functions within my world. Kapu proposed something along liquid style manipulation, which he later corrected/changed to agree with Mono. Mono envisioned her character's power functioning more like molding clay. This had never been discussed before, and when it came up my thoughts were more forceful. Let me explain my reasoning. Essentially, clay and liquid style manipulation are pretty similar. The implications for either style would be too powerful, considering the fact that Vladimira is the most powerful character in the game. To me, clay-like manipulation doesn't require the kind of exertion that a more forceful manner would. I have placed constraints on characters and their powers, and I don't feel this was being met by either of them. The application of clay-esque manipulation felt too powerful to me, and I'm definitely the person in charge of making sure your characters stay within the guidelines I have set. In her first IC post:<br/>"" The scrap metal clumped together in a jagged spike of steel as she clenched a fist""<br/><br/>I was not exactly put under the impression that she could fluidly melt it together. This point, is also moot, because I gave her what she wanted anyways as a special ability that only she would have, and other metal manipulators were not likely to have. No, the two+ hours of arguing was over the ""durability"" of the metal, because she couldn't understand that it was Aesthetic, no matter how much I repeated myself. I do not appreciate being constantly redrawn into an argument over basically nothing. Literally what that phrase meant was, ""The metal is different than the unmanipulated metal,"" and that's it. So honestly, I feel all of Mono's concerns about her character are null points. This are figmented problems which resulted in her tireless efforts to argue with me. I'm really too lazy to take screencaptures and blot out the personal information just to prove my point, I'm honestly not that concerned about it.<br/><br/>Now, lets move onto Kapu. When he created his character, by his words, she was a guardian type. She would have some offense, but would be mostly defense, and with her knowledge on healing. Now, when I read the draft, I approved his ""teleportation""-esque power, where Evelina dissolves into light particles and moves very rapidly for about two seconds. I also made this clear that it was not something to be used lightly. If you've been keeping up on the posts, Evelina used that power four times within a very short period. I also repeatedly asked them to keep their characters in check, even if it meant just mentioning the strain their power use was causing. Admittedly I slacked just a bit on Aeshma, but I do not feel that he did all that much exertion, I felt this way towards Vladimira as well, but brought it up anyways because the entire purpose of her being partially awakened was that she was not as powerful, as she was a guest in events that Kapu and I had originally planned ourselves, but I allowed her to be a part of because I'm a nice guy. That special exception on Evelina's power set is definitely within my right to express my concern, and request that it be kept in better check. It's a very overpowered ability. Kapu and I were in agreement on this. The amount of power use Evelina actually does during that fight is pretty high before Awakening.<br/><br/>The second issue I had with Kapu's character was the reflective-spring-punch. A complex move all in its own, but even more so for a character that was created primarily for defense. Without actually pitching the idea to me Kapu insisted that Evelina could wrap her hand in a ""reflective"" barrier, <span class=""bb-b"">Deflect</span> Aeshma's lightning bolt into the ground, and have that barrier-punch absorb the power from the reflection/deflection by compressing the barrier punch like a spring, and thus giving her an attack that is three times as powerful when she started. That latter statement was made by Kapu, the 3x power. Obviously, that is one hell of an offensive move for a defence oriented character. Now, to get something clear, Kapu and I did discuss reflective barriers at one point, but were never really got into it. To reflect an attack, would be to send it back. This implies that Evelina could stand before a thousand man firing squad and send their first volley reflected back and kill them all. I said I was onboard with deflection, or to divert from the attack's intended course. <br/><br/>The third problem I had with his character was that she had a mental conversation, albeit only threes lines, but (and I quote) ""Within the fraction of a second"" before Aeshma's attack hit her so that Fianna could tell Evelina to reflect it. I don't care who you are, nobody can have a conversation that fast except for MAYBE James Knight. There is no possible way she has the perceptive abilities to accomplish the recognition of thought, the process of contemplating the meaning of it, forming a response, recognizing the response, and processing that-- All managed before that bolt of electricity reached her, ""within the fraction of a second."" This point however, is moot, because we agreed.<br/><br/>The fourth problem I had with his character is that he had pitched her to me as a defensive character, but was using her as both in equal parts, actually it may have appeared that she was offensively stronger than defensively, but that's all up to personal interpretation. This also follows a redundancy that I found in his character sheet. He states that Evelina is weak, and underneath states that she is easily pushed around. I thought this meant that she was weak in the magically offensive regards, the way we discussed, and that pushed around meant she was physically weak. The changes I proposed here were clarifications on his character sheet to better fit what we had discussed about his character when he pitched her to me. Here's what I said. Clarification in this case means that it needs to be reworded so it can be understood better.<br/><br/>Considering the nature of your character's CS, that it is in question. I request the following changes.<br/>-Clarification for offensive weakness.<br/>-Clarification for physical weakness.<br/>-Clarification for enhanced defense.<br/>-Additional Stipulation that repurposing her defensive abilities for offensive measures takes much more effort.<br/>(Next one is from Skype)<br/>In addition to the other clarifications, and one change, I want to be clear that is it a -deflective- barrier, not reflective. The application for a reflective barrier is too powerful. <br/><br/>Repurposing a static shield into a kinetic attack should take more effort than just erecting a shield in the first place. The problems Kapu is having concerning myself and his character evolved from lack of clarity, the expectations that he would follow his own idea on her, the expectation that he would adhere to my expectations based on approving that idea, and the usage of undiscussed power applications. Don't get me wrong, do whatever you want with your powers, but if I feel it's too overpowered I will ask for you to change it. This is well within my right, and I've also outlined this in rules #1 and #5. You all were asked to read them, and nobody has come forth and notified me of any problems they have with my rules. You can implement new things, especially new ways to use your character's powers. That does not mean you can do anything you want and expect me to shrug my shoulders and let it fly. There's an arena section for that called defeat the godmodder or something.<br/><br/>So let me make this clear to you bobert. I gave Vladimira clay-manipulation. I took <span class=""bb-b"">Nothing</span> from her. I gave Evelina an overpowered move that I told everybody was off limits (Teleportation, in all rights, it technically is.) I gave Evelina the clear to have some sort of offense. I took away an overpower mechanic <span class=""bb-b"">ADDED</span> to that offensive barrier-punch I approved of. I <span class=""bb-b"">DENIED</span> Kapuchu's wish for reflective barriers, and <span class=""bb-b"">Instead</span> approved deflective.<br/><br/>I would hope everybody has read the rules. I did not overstep my bounds as a GM by attempting to keep their characters in check, and from acting overpowered. I do not have a clear reason why they left, but it is apparent they were frustrated. Perhaps they are used to getting their way? Perhaps it was because I started putting my foot down because I was tired of arguing all the time? Perhaps it was because they did not have 100% creative freedom with their characters? To be honest, none of you do. Take <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a>' character for example. 100% Creative freedom would allow Lucania (Did I spell that right?) to get super angry and Kamehameha style sonar-scream a skyscraper into dust. So then I ask you, what's the point of having a system of checks and balances? Perhaps they got too comfortable getting their way, and found it highly displeasing when I stood my ground? I couldn't tell you, and honestly I don't care what they tell you. The bond of trust is broken, and the ties of friendship were suddenly cut. Whatever their issue was, or is, no longer matters.<br/><br/>The only thing that concerns me are propaganda attempts at slandering my name. I do not put it above Kapu trying to coerce my players away so he can start his own interpretation of my world. Why? Because that's how Kapu and I met. I was kicked out/left a roleplay because of my differences with the GM. Kapuchu came to me and said he was starting his own idea of the roleplay, and stated that he had other players willing to join him. I'd rather this roleplay not be destroyed because of our differences. It was wrong for him to bring this into the OOC, it did not involve any of you. He should have said his goodbye, given his reason whether it be our differences, or how he felt. But when someone starts slinging your name in mud and spouting unpleasant things about your character and role of GM, you tend to lose faith in them. To be clear, I am not accusing either of them of this act, just that I am slightly suspicious of it.<br/><br/>If something isn't allowed in Dust, it's probably because I have ideas for something you don't know about. If something is asked to be changed or correct about your character, it's because I feel there needs to be clarification on something. If you have an idea, pitch it, even if I don't like it as is, we can hammer it out. If you have a problem, come to me about it.<br/><br/>If you feel the need to be excessively bullheaded-argumentative, the need to force a desired response from me, refuse to be constructive, break my rules, or tell me how to run my world, then do as Kapu and Mono did and leave. In all rights, they are you characters, but they still have to abide by my rules. In an RPG you create your character, but that character will always be limited by what that world sets out for them and allows them to do.<br/><br/>Not to be rude Bobert, but you only know what they want to tell you.</div>"

When left loose, tangles of blond hair fall nearly to her waist, though they're seldom left to do so in favor of braids or, more often than not, dreadlocks that hang in thin ropes or which are bound up into loose arrangements to keep them out of the way.

Darcs, I know you have a full plate but I'm going to shoot you a pm, I have a few ideas I think you'd be interested in hearing.</div>"
1009,The Dust,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75889-the-dust,"['Large Group', 'Post-Apocalyptic', 'Advanced']",2015-05-18 09:21:00,Syben,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">For those of you participating in the event at 4, you shouldn't need to collab with me. When I get a chance in the next day or two I will be posting a full disclosure on the events of the Winged Guardians in an information style layout in the OOC. I will also post it up on the first page for easy referencing, but only temporarily.<br/><br/>Things to expect in the first stage (Evening):<br/>Roadblocks, Large mobilizations of Wings, Artillery Explosions, A ""front line"" defense a mile outside the eastern edge of the city, chaos, more explosion, looting, rioting, panic, fear, Extreme Immortal Prejudice (probably because those funny eyed demons cause this entire thing in the first place.) Patriotism, A Morgan Freeman style narration done by me, explaining the events currently partaking in the city. It may not be a long post, but it's to document the first stage of the event.<br/><br/>Also, like all good events, Everything your characters do, everything they say, every step they make, every breath they take, I will use this against you. Everything has a purpose now, I will be making notes and tipping the scales one of three ways based on EVERYTHING your characters do in this situation. 1: Russel City makes it through this, with enough Winged Guardians survivors to maintain control of the city, likely leading to a skirmish with Darcs' Mafia family. 2: Russel City makes it through this, without enough Winged Guardians to control the city, leaving it vulnerable to more than first meets your eyes. 3: Russel City, rest in peace. <br/><br/>There is, in fact, a more disastrous fourth option. An option so bad, that it would permanently make your characters lives in Dust that much harder. This however, is a secret scenario.  <br/><br/>I am working on some supporting information right now.<br/><br/>Last but not least, do keep in mind that I am a loving GM. At the bottom of this post there is a clue, leading to another clue, and another. Get your detective hats on because, regardless if you are actually in the event or not, finding out the answer brings incentive in the form of:<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">Character ""Perk""</font>; The addition of an ability, or power, even if that means you violate the 2:1 ratio. As long as this ability follows the scheme of the powers, it can be whatever you wish. The only catch is that for the sake of balance, I cannot allow it to be OP, but it can be pretty nice. As a bonus incentive, to the winner, I will answer any singular question, no matter what it is. (Just so you are aware, I will not be cryptic about it, I will answer it straight forth and honestly, even if it involves World Lore that I do not wish you to know yet.)<br/><br/>So, who's in? The first person to show us the correct answer wins the incentive, the questions, and unlocks the secret of outcome #4.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""First Hint"" type=""button"">First Hint [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">It is here where birth comes to fruition, where Idea becomes reality.

""birth comes to fruition"" and ""Idea becomes reality"" probably mean that this is the place where ideas take a physical form in reality, and maybe I'm looking too far into it, but that capital I, I think, is a kind of hint within a hint. Does the answer start with 'I' maybe? <br/><br/>Probably not, I'm probably super wrong.<br/><br/>""I am ground zero, the beta section, the firing range, the experimental and the newly developed."" This is what got me thinking of this website-- Interest Checks are full of competing ideas, each an experiment of their OP, permanently the newly developed idea, a beta when compared to the actual RP, both ground zero and a firing range where ideas compete for interest. <br/><br/>I think by ""show"" you wanted something specific from an IC, the Advanced IC to be specific-- <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75785-the-dust-post-apoc-meta-human-non-linear-shapeshifting-ooc-is-up/ooc"" rel=""nofollow"">so here's The Dust's Interest Check.</a><br/><br/>So yeah.<br/><br/>Did I get close?<br/><br/></div>"

The first clue leads to the <font color=""#ffc300"">test forum</font>, good luck from there because I will provide no more freebies. Also you tried to click that, good job pleb. &lt;3<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/lightning-fast"">@Lightning Fast</a> Alex is in a mental state that I was once in, so though you may not understand all I try to convey it as best as possible. (Btw I am fine now). I've learned that I am an Empath, I pick up on other people's emotions and vibes very easily and they affect me a great deal sometimes; this makes it very difficult to understand my own emotions, and to decipher them from reality or empathy. Alex spent months in a state of anger that slowly grew into uncontrollable rage, which you see in the IC. Now she's in more of a mental shock. What's real? What's not real? What should she feel? It's an emotional turmoil inside her mind, she still feels emotions, but also apathy. The road she is being led down (through world, character, and event interaction to which I base most of that off of what you all do in the world) is in a state of dissociative emotions. She doesn't always process immediately, or feel the way other people do about certain things.<br/><br/>Let me explain just a bit, I have dissociative sadness. When my great aunt, who I was close to died, I never cried, I didn't feel sad, I didn't feel anything, I went on with my routine without a hitch. Same thing with my great great grandmother ""Ma"", though I loved her very much. I cried immediately for a dog whom I had for a few years, but only once, and for a brief period. When the grandmother who raised me my entire life, expanded my horizons beyond what was ""normal"", laughed with me and pulled pranks on my mom together, made a ""bone"" garden with me (various animal skulls, spines, and assorted bones) died I felt nothing. It wasn't until 2 months later that I finally cried and broke down.<br/><br/>So Alex is kind of in that place right now, she's not entirely sure what's what, or how to feel about them, if at all. She's halfway between full dissociative disorder or an emotional break down. (Something akin to the 'truck' scene when she almost ran over Evelina). She's trying to find herself, but where does one begin when they never truly knew who they were? On top of being a slave to people until she brutally murdered them (after they murdered her father, which she has zero knowledge of who that armored man was) or being a slave to your desire to have purpose and become hooked on a rumor that was but a thought once, blinding yourself and devoting everything to this purpose that you have self manifested into an external reality?<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a> I am seriously about to change my guild title to ""The Bartender"".<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1""></div><br/><div class=""bb-h1""></div><br/><div class=""bb-h1""></div><br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><div class=""bb-h3"">Ĥ̴̴̡̦͚̙̩͚̣̝̠͕́̌ͣ̏̓͠͞E̢̙͈̹̹̖͙͍̱̫̾̍ͫ̔̿̎́͆͌ͣ́̇̀̑ͥ̀ ͑̃̈ͯͧ͑̑ͭ̀́͋̉ͪͤͪ̐ͩ͏̷̩͙̞͓̤̦̯̩̭̝͓̜̞̕ͅC̛̖͉̝̫ͣ̎̀͛͑͐̕O͋̏̀͑̓͆̈́̂̾͐ͭ͋̈́̔͌́̽̑͗͠͝͞҉̮̱̗͍M̧̧̨̢̛̮̖̤̗̮̖̬̺̻̮͈̼̓̎̓͌͂ͅȨ͉̞͙̂ͭ̈̾ͮ̓͆̿Š̔͂̔҉͉̥͕͕͙̬̱͉̲̫̗̥͖̯̬͢ͅͅ</div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/monochromatic-rainbow"">@Monochromatic Rainbow</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I have arrived. <br/>T̛͈͙͓̀ͯḥ̷͈̮̗̥̰̉ͅȁ̶̹̞̯ͥ͜ͅͅn̸͍̳͚͎̘̞̅͂͑̿͐̇̂̅̚k̨͔̹̯͍͇̠̹̔ ̷̜̋͂͆̒̔̓̕ỵ̶̜̬̗͙̫͛̇͊̊ͬ̍ͯͯ̍ő̘͔̗̳ͥ͘u̶̘͇͉̹̖͎͍͐̓̀ͨ̋</div>"

Backstory: A student who recently graduated high school and was considering her college applications, she ignored the rumours floating about on the internet about a new rabies virus. Ignorance was no cure, however, for the infection, and Ash was one of the many names that died or turned into the undead on the first day.

The virus mutated inside her, eventually turning her hands and feet into claws. One day, she eventually realised that she was topless (her shirt was either torn off or slowly decayed to the ravages of time) and used a spare roll of bandages to cover herself up. Her mind slowly returned, and from outright hostility and hunger for the living, it become curiosity. She would watch, safely hidden, as soldiers and other survivors raided former living areas for food and supplies.

3 years later, Ash knows how to speak, read and write English, even if she finds hardly anyone intelligent to talk to.</div>"

And even though her parents didn't want her to, she dropped out of college to start working as a waitress, in hopes she would figure out what to do with her life. 

A year later she decided to join her brother in the US military. Her brother lost his leg in Afghanistan and went back home a couple of weeks after she joined the military, but Rose stayed. After that the virus spread through the US and the US military helped out as much as they could. Now, three years later, the military is growing smaller and smaller.</div>"

Ash twiddled her short brown hair and stared at the computer. She had gotten into the dreaded cycle of refreshing. A few of her favourite tumblrs, Twitter, Reddit and the forums she frequented were all the tabs she had open. Yet none of them were updating. Well, some were, but there was this hashtag trending on Twitter.

""Hashtag outbreak. Well, let's see what's going on."" Ash clicked on the link provided by the user. It led to YouTube. ""Ugh, another viral marketing video?""

The cursor hovered over the close button of the tab as the video played. From the poor aspect ratio, it was definitely recorded on a smartphone's camera. To make things worse, the recording was shaky. She rolled her eyes a bit, but the next image drew her gaze. A man was on the floor, crawling away. He looked up at some woman, and screamed and begged.

""Don't eat me!""

The woman fell onto him anyway, and she sunk her teeth into the man's face. Ash just stared, slack-jawed. The grainy footage was hard to see through, but Ash guessed that it might have been poor special effects. The door knocked, and she sighed. Her father had come back from work, most likely.

""Coming! Stop knocking so much, dad!"" she yelled. Picking up a white shirt, she slid it onto herself (her father disapproved of her walking around the house topless, but she was so flat a bra wasn't necessary) and walked to the door.

""Look, stop knocking, I'm..."" As she pulled the door open, what standing there wasn't her father. It was a man. Ash would have said that it 'is' a man, but men didn't have their guts hanging out in front of them and still be standing upright. His glazed-over eyes flickered to look at Ash, and the thing roared.

Turning around, she tried to run, but the dead man's hand was faster. He grabbed onto her shirt, and tried to grab onto her. She heard a loud rip of the shirt she wore, but the momentum from his jerky grab was good enough.

""Nonono— NO!"" Ash screamed. The zombie, now with a proper grab onto her, sunk his bloody teeth into her. She screamed, and the pain brought upon her by his second ironclad bite sent everything to darkness.

Minutes later, the corpse of the tomboy on the floor shook violently. With a quiet groan, Ash sat up, and slowly got to her feet. Her torn shirt slid off her body, reducing her modesty to naught, but she didn't care. Her mind, previously filled with the ambitions and dreams of an 18 year old girl, were now filled with instinctual hunger. Stumbling out of the room, her dazed zombie instincts looked up into the sky to the sound of a helicopter. Just like the mindless horde of the walking dead, she followed.

<span class=""bb-i"">Modern Days</span>

""No, c'mon, don't mess this up...""

Her claws held the USB cable nervously, as she gently eased it into back of the computer. A few damaged cables were scattered beside her. When Ash heard the click, she grinned.

Hopefully, the internet was still working. The power was. And if there was one thing that Ash remembered recently, there were such things called computers. As she eased up the battered office chair to the computer, she heard the sound of a vehicle. The army was here. They would usually scavenge for supplies. Food, spare parts, gasoline, and the like.

That was their way of living their life. This was her unlife. Ash looked out at the room she made. A bed (she didn't need to rest, but it felt unnatural for her room to be missing one), a mini-fridge (filled with choice cuts from the local supermarket, and a few from unlucky passers-by. The meat had already went bad by human definitions, but she kept it around. Eating helped stave off the worst effects of being a zombie.), and a computer that was already in this room. A first aid kit, stuffed to the brim with bandages (her choice of clothing today), sat beside the computer.

The windows were boarded, and the door was barred. Someone else was here earlier, but she shot herself. Ash just took over.

With a grin that showed bits of meat stuck between her teeth, she clicked on Reddit. There were certainly less users, but it was still active nonetheless. Even if humanity would still shoot to kill her at first sight, she still wanted company of some sort.</div>"

""How is he doing, Mom?"" She spoke through a cellphone. Her eyes were looking at the things that were going around her. The soldiers passing by, their faces and whatever they were doing. Her free hand was fiddling with the buttons on her navy green jacket. She listened at the voice on the other side of the line. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""He's doing better...""</span> A voice of an older woman sounded. ""That doesn't sound very promising."" Rose said and sighed, leaning back against the wall of a hallway. ""Has he said anything?"" - ""<span class=""bb-i"">No, he's seeing a therapist, because he's having a lot of nightmares</span>"". The woman spoke. ""Tell Daniel I said Hi, okay?"" Rose asked her mother. 

Daniel was her older brother. He was 5 years older than her, and he joined the US army before she did. But he got in an accident a few months back and lost his leg. He was in Afghanistan, and so far Rose heard, they were attacked. His brother was close by a grenade when someone threw it and it went off. He lost his leg and was sent back home. 

It was busy at the military base here. People were always busy, some soldiers had just gotten back from a mission or a practice. Rose stayed here when her brother was sent back home. Even though her mother wanted her back, she felt she needed to be here. Rose felt she had a purpose here, serving her country. 

""I have to go. We have to check out some things going on in Michigan"". Rose spoke through the phone. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Oh honey, be careful. Have you been following the news?</span>"" - ""Yes, I have mom. Don't worry. It's probably nothing to worry about."" Rose said. But she had no idea what was going on or what to expect. She pushed herself off the wall and ended the conversation with her mother and left with a group for Michigan. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Modern Days</span></span>

What she saw 3 years ago in Michigan wasn't something to not worry about. It wasn't something that would be easy to fix. It was a virus that was spreading more and more. It brought the dead back to live, and they were hungry. Rose wasn't exactly how or why, her mission was to get people in safety. She and other soldiers had been busy finding survivors and fighting off zombies for 3 years now. They were losing people almost on a daily basis. It was sad, but they didn't really had a choice. Rose didn't really else had a choice. The army offered them food and in return they would do as they were told. 

People said hell was full, and that's why the dead were coming back alive. Or that it was humanity's own fault. If we did believe in God and lived according the bible, this would never have happened. Most people didn't know what was trying to kill them, so they just made up lies... 

""We're almost there!"" A voice yelled at a group of 6 soldiers. Rose was one of them. ""We'll be back in exactly 3 hours!"" The man who was flying the helicopter mentioned. Rose got her helmet and put it over her short brown hair. In the military long hair wasn't ideal. 

She felt the helicopter going down and eventually landing on a big intersection, in the middle of a small highway. Rose and the other soldiers jumped out, holding their rifles, running away from the helicopter, and off to a place where they couldn't be seen by others so they had a moment to discuss how they were going to this. 

""Clear!"" Rose said out loud after they had entered a small store. Bart, another soldier closed the blinds, and used two fingers to peek between the blinds. So far, there were no zombies to be seen. ""How are we going to do this?"" Bart said in a heavy voice. The reason they were there because someone had called for help through a radio. They said they were in this city, hiding in a mall. 

Rose took out a big city map. And pointed at a red circle drawn on the map. ""The mall is here. We are here"" She pointed to a small spot on the map. ""It's about 2.5 kilometers away."" She said, and looked at the 4 male soldiers, who were listening. Rose looked down on the map, and her fingers moved over the map. ""This is the shortest road. And probably the safest road too"" She spoke quickly, and put the map back in her pocket, before she turned to a blond soldier. ""I've talked it through with Mason, he leads the way"". Mason nodded, and they left the abounded store. 

It was halfway their trip when they were attacked by a big group of zombies. They were only with the 6 of them, and there were just too many zombies. Shots were fired and heads were bashed in. It looked like there was no way out and they weren't going to make it.

Bart was the one who sacrificed himself. He managed to get the zombies attention and pulled the trigger from a grenade when Rose and the others were far enough not to get hit by it. The soldiers kept on running, until they were safe. 

""Rose..."" Mason said. ""You're bitten"". 

Rose her heart skipped a beat and she got this feeling of desperation in her stomach. She looked at her body, to see where she was bitten. With the adrenaline rushing through her body during the zombie attack, she hadn't noticed that one got to her. It was a big bite on her upper arm. ""F*ck"" Rose cursed. She knew what this meant. She couldn't go any further with the guys. ""Well, go on already. I'll be fine. I promise"" Her right hand covered the wound on her left arm. 

She watched the guys leave, and she was all on her own now. Rose knew she wasn't going to make it on her own here.</div>"
1128,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-28 21:18:00,Ontos,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Ash grabbed a pistol in her claws. It was more for threatening the living at this stage, and maybe a few potshots at the other intelligent dead. The army seemed a bit more proactive in her sector today. If they broke down the door, she'd return fire.

A grenade explosion rocked the building slightly, and Ash frowned. They were messing up her building. With a tired sigh, she plucked off the boards on her door with her bare claws. (Claws can work like a hammer in a pinch.) She plucked off a kevlar vest from the bed (courtesy of a few of the undead soldiers) and moved out. She used the vest as a shield against her head, holding her pistol in the direction of the little gunshots of a pistol. It must have been an individual soldier, or a survivor, or the rest were sticking to melee weapons. Sticking behind the reanimated corpse of a young woman wearing a female business suit, she slowly edged her way to the source of the gunshot noises.

A young woman, looking like a soldier with the mishmash of body armour she wore, sat in a corner. Her right hand grasped tightly onto what looked like a wound on her other arm, while her left hand held a pistol. A few zombies fell as she fired at them.

Ash counted the shots. When the second-to-last bullet fired, there was just the zombie left that she took cover behind. Well, Ash was a zombie, but a nice one.

""Save your bullet."" Grabbing the zombie woman, Ash tripped her to the floor and smashed her head in.

Holding the kevlar vest to her head, Ash peeked behind it to see the soldier she had temporarily rescued. A black-haired, caucasian woman. Too young to die, but here she was, infected. Ash was infected once, but she got lucky.

""Don't shoot,"" stated Ash.</div>"
1129,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-28 21:41:00,Spellbound,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rose fired again, but this time she missed. It took her a moment to realize that she just fired her last shot. But Rose didn't lower her gun yet. Maybe whoever was talking to her wouldn't know and keep a save distance. Zombies didn't talk right? They wouldn't back down for a gun, unless it went through their head. 

Rose was looking at the thing that was holding the kevlar vest to her head. Her hand was shaky, but the gun still aimed to whoever was talking. Blood was dropping down on the floor and she knew that would only lure more zombies towards her. She needed to get out of here if she wanted to stay alive for a few extra hours. 

""Too late."" Rose said. 

Rose was starting to become a bit light headed from the blood loss. It wasn't a small wound and she didn't had time to take a look at it and find some bandages. Thinking about that, she realized that bandaging her wound had little to no use. She was going to die anyway and come back as a zombie. She couldn't shoot a bullet through her head any more, because she wasted her last bullet. There were still a few options left: throw herself off a high building, have someone else bash her head in. Rose could be creative, maybe she would even see the fun in it soon?

""Who are you?"" Rose asked in a demanding tone. ""Lower that stupid vest"" She wanted to see who she was talking to and how that person looked like. From what she could see, Rose wasn't sure what she was talking to and she was dying to know.</div>"

She mentally prepared to dodge, even though she was pretty sure that the bullet would hit her before the sound reached her ears. Her grey hair, her slightly bloodshot eyes, and her slightly pale skin would have told the soldier everything, unless she was beginning to see things.

""I'm Ash. And you're bitten,"" groaned Ash. Apparently, the woman spent her last bullet trying to shoot her. And unless she fancied death by a crowbar, she would probably have to give her a bullet of her own. If the soldier didn't question Ash's appearance, she herself was going to bring it up.

""Do you want... bandages? Painkillers? There's still some around here,"" asked Ash, a little tentatively.</div>"
1131,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-29 18:01:00,Spellbound,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Like she didn't know that she was bitten yet. ""Yes, thank you, captain obvious."" Rose snarled. ""I didn't know that."" Her tone was sarcastic and angry. She was angry because she was bitten and it felt like she had failed. She failed her group and the people she wanted to help. 

She opened her mouth to say something, but stopped whatever she was doing when Ash lowered her vest. ""What the..."" Her big brown eyes looked at the claws, the bloodshot eyes and the pale skin. Rose hadn't noticed the claws before, even though those big claws couldn't be missed when it held that vest. Did a zombie just talk? No, that as impossible, but the talking wasn't the only thing that scared her. 

Rose blinked with her eyes a few times. No, this wasn't a dream, because it all looked very real. Maybe she was hallucinating? Did the virus work so fast through her body? She had no idea how this virus exactly worked and she didn't care either. It made people die and come back alive. The only thing she needed to know was how to kill them, but she already figured that out 3 years ago. 

""I must be hallucinating."" Rose said. Rubbing her eyes with her left hand, she groaned from the pain when she moved her left arm. ""Because zombies don't talk."" She shook her head, her hand still covering her face. 

""Zombies don't talk, zombies don't talk."" She repeated to herself, not listening to Ash's last question any more. Rose thought she was going crazy. Her right hand was shaking as she put the gun back in the holster on her belt. It was empty, she couldn't use it anyway. 

She slowly moved her hand away from her face, but the talking zombie was still there. Rose looked at it with big eyes and her mouth open from shock. ""I'm hallucinating.""</div>"

But the soldier's tone when she saw her face, and perhaps refocused her eyes. Ash herself didn't know how the infection progressed in someone who got a minor bite. If the soldier didn't trust her own eyes, how could she communicate?

""Well, I'm not sure how to re-assure you..."" Ash sat down besides Rose, and placed her hand on her shoulder. ""But I'm talking. I'm not sure if the bites cause hallucinations, but I'm here, and talking to you.""

She wondered what else to say, hopefully to take Rose off her bite wound. ""Oh right! What's going on out there? And what's your name?""</div>"
1133,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-29 18:27:00,Spellbound,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Her eyes almost rolled out of her head when she sat down next to her. When the zombie also laid a hand on her shoulder, Rose got scared and tried to stand up quickly and walk away in a defensive mode. Instead, she sort of fell over, landed on both her arms and crawled away from the zombie. ""Don't touch me! Zombies don't talk!""

Rose tried to stand up, her knees were trembling and her forehead was sweaty. She took her helmet off her head and threw it at the zombie, frustrated because she was getting sicker. ""Zombies don't ask for my name."" Rose mumbled, unbuttoning her jacket, because she was sweating like crazy. ""Zombies eat meat, human meat, animal meat, whatever kind of meat! They are... Brain dead!"" 

""Right?"" She took a deep breath and made an attempt to calm herself down. She was bitten, she was dying and there is a talking zombie... 

""I need to warn the army..."" Rose said and she sounded determined. Her eyes stared at the talking zombie. ""I have to go."" She turned around and made a few steps into a random direction until she stopped and realized she could never walk to the army.</div>"

Did people start acting this weird after a bite, Ash wondered. Perhaps becoming a mindless zombie was a nice respite after all this crazy panicked thrashing. Ash shook her head, and looked off to the side.

She did a double-take as another walking corpse stumbled into view. Uncomfortably close to Rose.

Raising her pistol up, she fired a shot, taking out the zombie in a headshot.

""The army's a day away of walking, even if you take the open streets, miss,"" said Ash, shaking her head. ""You're not going to make it.""

With a sigh, she decided to lie. Well, twist the truth. She was technically a zombie, but zombies didn't talk. Zombies don't ask for names. They were brain dead. All this she was not.

""And I'm not all of that. I'm not a zombie either. Take a bloody seat before someone tries to eat your face off!"" shouted Ash.</div>"

Rose asked. ""It's not Halloween yet."" She avoided to look Ash in the face. The shot made her jump up a little. She was so scared, and she didn't expect a zombie to shoot a gun either. 

She sat down against the wall where she sat down earlier and closed her eyes for a moment, just to take in everything that had just happened. 

""I suppose I can't borrow your gun to shoot myself in the head?"" Rose asked the zombie. She opened her eyes to look at the wound on her arm. It looked nastier than she expected and she had lost a lot of blood. She was sure she could see some bone too. If she didn't do anything about it, the wound would become infected. But she was going to die anyway, so she decided not to do anything about the wound. 

""If you're not a zombie. Then what are you?"" Rose asked looking away from her wound, back to the talking zombie.</div>"

She expected it, but it was harder to hear it than to imagine it. ""Y-yeah, you can. If you want.""

What was Ash, anyway? She didn't have a pulse, and her body didn't feel pain. She just shrugged. ""I'm Ash, someone who just lives here. Do you have a name, or did they start referring soldiers by ID number when the world went to shit?""

She recalled... being bitten. A long time ago. But she didn't know when she specifically became less of a zombie, and more like herself. ""I was bitten a long time ago, I think. Maybe I got lucky.""

Ash shrugged, and toyed with her gun. As long as she didn't point it in her face, it was safe enough.</div>"
1137,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-30 17:34:00,Spellbound,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I don't remember my ID number at the moment."" Rose answered. ""My name is Rose."" She introduced herself. ""And I'm bitten a while ago."" Rose said with a sigh. 

This zombie got lucky, but was still bitten? That was weird. Was that even possible? ""Do you remember anything from the bite and after it?"" Rose asked. She wasn't sure if she wanted to live the rest of her life like a zombie. But at least she couldn't get bitten twice. 

""When the world went to shit, we pretty much lost our lives, just like everyone else."" Rose said. The military was the only place they felt save and they could call home. It wasn't really home... It was a mess, a chaotic place with lots of blood and bodies of dead soldiers. Everyone was running around like crazy. There was always so much to do, so many missions. But never enough people, never enough guns or ammunition and sometimes not enough food. But they had a bed and a roof above their head at the base.

""But instead of running away, we risked our lives for humans."" Rose spoke quietly. ""Not that some humans were worth it."" Rose said and looked up at Ash the talking zombie. 

""What about those claws?"" Rose asked. ""is that a side effect of being a talking zombie?"" Rose asked.</div>"

At least the woman introduced herself. Given the circumstances, though, she had the right to be upset.

""I don't remember a lot of things. I don't even remember my last name. I'm not even sure how I came to be like this."" Ash looked at her claws, as Rose recalled the circumstances of humanity. It certainly went to shit out there. Ash might have even considered herself lucky, in the circumstances. There was lots of food in the places that were overrun.

Ash only recalled a specific moment when she regained consciousness, or rather, awareness. The circumstances weren't pleasant, and she preferred not to think about it.

""I think it's a side effect. And I prefer another word. Zombies are for those mindless, stumbling ones. I'm a..."" Ash pondered. She hadn't come up with a name.

""Hunter.""

Like the Special Infected guy in Left 4 Dead.</div>"

""Okay, then what are you hunting?"" Rose asked curious. ""Meat? Humans?"" Rose continued to ask Ash. 

It looked like she spoke the truth. But it was still weird how she looked like and talked at the same time. She looked like a zombie, but she spoke? It was probably a mutation of the virus, or perhaps her body handled it differently? Rose had no clue, and it wouldn't take long before she would turn in a brainless, meat eating monster. 

The sun was slowly going to down in the sky, towards the horizon. ""So, you eat human meat too?"" Rose asked before she let out a soft groan, trying to stand up. 

""I assume I won't go after you after I turn."" Rose spoke and managed to get on both her feet. Her arm was hurting so much now that the adrenaline was leaving her body. 

""Are there more like you?"" The soldier asked and looked at Ash. The sun was shining in Rose her face, and you could see the sweat on her forehead and her hair was wet. a terrible fever was the side effect of the virus, before someone would turn. 

Rose saw black spots in her vision and she felt dizzy after she stood up. She had lost too much blood. If she wasn't going to die from the fever and the virus, she would die from the big amount of blood she lost. So she took off her jacket, since she was burning up anyway, and tried to wrap it around the wounded arm with one arm.</div>"
1140,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-02-05 14:42:00,Ontos,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""It's a self-made name. Well..."" Ash sighed. Her life wasn't exactly pretty. She occasionally dealt with thugs who saw themselves as the Last-Man-on-Earth. She rarely took the initiative to end them, but when they got overwhelmed, Ash dealt the finishing blow just so that they would not turn. The meat kept that way.

""I hunt for food."" She scratched her head, trying to find a way in her mind that made it sound less grim. ""From reasonable sources. I mean, I don't kill anyone who isn't already going to die, and I have a reasonable expectation of who's going to live or die.""

Ash shrugged, giving Rose a look of that pretty much meant 'perhaps, but probably not'. ""I'd be a treat for any living scientists who's looking for a cure, but I'm guessing they'll consider me legally dead and dissect me.""

She knew of others that were <span class=""bb-i"">like</span> her, but in different ways. Some of the zombies were intelligent, but not on a 'conversational basis'. They knew how humans worked, and targeted them in clever and cunning ways. They were like animalistic hunters looking for prey.

""There are. But they're dicks.""

Ash felt a little crestfallen when she saw Rose manage her wound. The soldier would probably die of blood loss first before the infection got her. ""Do you think you can contact your relatives, or friends?""</div>"
1141,Dead Outside (Spellbound and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75904-dead-outside-spellbound-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-02-07 23:24:00,Spellbound,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rose shook her head at the same time she tried to get her belt off her hips and pants. All with one hand. She looked clumsy, but she got it. The holster and guns were on the ground and what was left was an empty belt. she wrapped it above the wound on her arm, using her teeth to get the belt through the buckle and tightened it. She had to stop the bleeding and the belt was the only thing that tightened good enough around her arm. 

Rose groaned from the pain when she fastened it, but she couldn't buckle the belt with one hand. 

""Help me, please."" Rose asked Ash while she was listening to her. There were others like her? How big would the chance be that she became like her as well? 

""Did you became like this right away?"" Rose asked. ""A talking zombie?"" - ""uh, I mean a <span class=""bb-i"">hunter</span>?"" Rose quickly said and a small smile curved her lips. At least, it was an attempt to smile, the pain from her wound was too much. But talking and keeping busy helped her blocking out the pain. Rose had been shot before, but that pain was nothing compared to this zombie bite. 

Her brown eyes stared into space for a moment while she was thinking. Was there someone left she could call? A friend, a relative, someone she loved? No...

""Our chief..."" Rose answered. ""No, wait, Brody."" Brody was a good friend of her brother. Her parents were gone, her brother was dead too and she didn't know about the rest of her family. But Brody and her became best friends since the virus. He was the only one she had left that reminded her of her family. But Brody was on another mission, or perhaps he was already back? 

""I think I can contact Brody."" But she was wasn't sure exactly how. She was in pain and her brains weren't really working along. Maybe it was the virus, maybe it was the loss of blood.</div>"

Age: 26 

Human or Werewolf? Werewolf

Appearance: She's small, standing at 5'1 and weighing 95 pounds, but is strong for her size. She has vibrant, piercing green eyes and thin, cracked lips, with an extra pair of canines. She has black wavy hair that goes to her shoulders that has become wild and tangled during her time at the factory. She is often seen wearing the face mask to prevent biting, although she gets it taken off after promising to behave. Her abdomen is well-scarred, and her skin is sickly and pasty looking. 
Her wolf form is a small pale brown Great Plains wolf with a black stripe on both flanks, black ears and a black tail tip. Due to the abuse at Lunie, she has dull, scraggly fur that has come off in places, and the fur on her belly has fallen away due to the scarring. 

Personality: Always calculating and planning, analyzing any possible changes to her advantage in the environment. Around other werewolves she is distant but not unfriendly unless she forms a bond and realizes she can trust them. She doesn't trust any humans after she was taken. She has become bitter and depressed, and longs for freedom like anyone else. She is cautious and thus sometimes slow to make decisions, this is mainly influenced by her past attempts to escape. She rarely attacks other werewolves, but she is often sedated before surgeries because of ""safety concerns"". 

Bio/history: She grew up with an older brother and her parents, all of whom were werewolves. Her brother was one of those werewolves who caused strings of mutilations in the area, and was eventually tracked to their residence. Her parents, not knowing what was going on or what their son had done, were shot dead for defending him. Her brother was killed in the struggle; he'd been darted multiple times but resisted the sedative and mortally wounded one of the policemen. Aubrey surrendered and was taken to Lunie. She was 22. In the four years she's been at Lunie, she has become much more cynical, sarcastic and caustic.

Name: Rey Akins (AKA Jesse Wilson)

Age: 31 

Human or Werewolf? Human

Appearance: Tall, slim, and dark-skinned, with short black hair and big, thick-rimmed glasses and dark brown eyes. The glasses magnify his eyes to the point that they look a bit big for his face. He dresses somewhat formally and carries a notebook, pencil and sharpener wherever he goes, although those items are often hidden in pockets or backpacks. 

Personality: Very persistent and curious, and what many people would describe as naggy. He asks questions doggedly and doesn't stop until he either has an answer or is removed. Sometimes he words things a little differently or tries different tactics, anything to get a good and truthful story. Although he's slightly nervous about werewolves due to the media, he's never really understood the mass hysteria against them, especially after a close friend of his confessed to him and went missing shortly after. Ever since then, he's been suspicious of the werewolf liver industry. He can be blunt and perhaps too honest, but he doesn't mean to insult, and other than that he tries to be nice to anyone he meets. 

Bio/history: Rey's a journalist, as you might have guessed. He was never truly interested in werewolves until the disappearance of his friend, at which point he became perhaps the only person curious as to where the market's werewolf livers are coming from. About a month before the roleplay begins, he contacted Lunie Health under the fake name, Jesse Wilson, inquiring about a job at the factory. With some help, he created fake background information and got the job-- not that it was hard. Now, with tiny wearable cameras and hidden microphones, he hopes to find out and expose the truth about Lunie.

She has a few on her left also. And the scars all show in her human form, but she tends to try and hide them.</div></div>

Personality: Midnight tends to be very quiet and calm when she is around people. But that's what people see on the outside, but not on the inside. For a girl her age, she tends to be really complicated. No one understands her which makes everyone back away or think bad of her. She also has a problem when it comes to fighting, when she gets in a fight she can't stop till the person is gone or hurt. If you talk to her for the first, she can talk a bit mean. She just stays away and never talk unless its very important to speak. She would usually shrug, nod, shake her head or anything that might help people understand when she isn't talking. Some people even think she is a mute and bipolar.

Bio/history: Midnight is a orphan who lived in a orphanage most of her life that only girls can attend. She hated the place with such passion, it would actually radiant off her. Cause of that, it made the rest of the people in the building scared of her which made her go to therapy. Everyone hated her because of the way she was. She was treated in a poor way that she wont even speak about it. The last time anyone heard her voice was when she was fourteen. Midnight ended up in the Lunie because of a fight she was accused of doing. She tried to make the orphanage group under it wasn't her, but they never listened to her at all. She was more likely tricked into the Lunie which makes her blood boil just by thinking about it.

That, however, is a failed case given the obscene amount of damage his entire body has suffered.

He wears a prosthetic hook over his left hand, which he lost to a werewolf years ago. And a much more debilitating injury has left him in a clunky head brace. As far as his attire goes, he wears an average white T-shirt and dark blue work trousers, a black rubber glove and a pair of black rubber boots, and a black apron issued to him by Lunie Health with a pouch for carrying all of his tools.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Clifford has become a hard-working yet distant fellow over the last few years, partway because of his injuries, and his occupational conditions. Thanks to the nasty wound on the right side of his face, which cuts into his mouth, nose, and right eye, he doesn't do much talking anymore. The werewolves of the facility don't like him, that's a given. But they know he isn't as cruel as the other employees. He doesn't go overboard when dealing with rowdy customers and he's very clean with his liver harvests. Overall, he's a silent, job-focused individual who no one seems to really know or care for.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio/history:</span> Clifford Briley was once a police officer in Detroit, Michigan. Even before his face got blown apart, he was a soft-spoken fellow, living alone in a sort of peaceful solitude. With the advent rising of werewolf activity however, he became much more active and professional, eventually landing himself a spot on a designated squad charged with responding to violent werewolf activity with swift aggression. Over time, he collected quite a few memorial scars and marks, none ever quite deep enough to turn him into the enemy though. He even lost his left arm when a particularly nasty target wrangled it off with her teeth. But onward he fought, with his brand new prosthetic hook-hand. He was involved in an operation to defuse a situation between a pack of werewolves and a renegade hunting gang, which ended in an explosion that cost him half his face. But Clifford refused to let that stop him and kept up with his new look.

The line had to be drawn eventually, however. Clifford was investigating reports of a brutal mauling going on in a hotel room one night. When he got there, he found nothing but a mangled, chewed up corpse on the bed. The werewolf responsible, however, had been waiting for him there. But instead of savagely attacking the officer, the werewolf lunged and pushed him out the nearby window, down several floors, and onto the roof of a truck waiting below, all before absconding into the night. And even after that, Clifford managed to make it out of the situation alive. With a permanent head brace, but alive nonetheless. His fellow officers, however, decided enough was enough. They got Clifford relieved from service and had him sent home. And the man wasn't happy about it.

A dim light shined upon Clifford some weeks later. News reports of his actions had caught the attention of some folks over at Lunie Health, and they sent a recruitment agent to visit and offer him a less physically demanding but still werewolf-oriented job - as a liver harvester and general caretaker, no less. And the pay check was all too attractive. Apprehensive at first, Clifford decided to sample a day on the job first before he made any decisions. But at the time, it didn't seem to him like he was going to get anything better in terms of an income source. The agent drove him to the Lunie Health facility and showed him around.

It's been almost four years. And Clifford is still working at the facility.

She used to be a pretty cheerful person. She was fun to hang around with, and she loved playing with the other kids in the orphanage. When she discovered she was a werewolf, she was so proud. She loved wolves, she felt nothing but happiness for being one, much to the anger of the orphanage. When she was forced to hide her werewolf nature and stop transforming, she became angry. She transformed more and more, embracing her wolf side. She always tries to look strong, but the fact remains that she's simply a young werewolf. She will not be ready when she must suffer like the rest of her species.
<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Bio/history:</span></div>
Amber was found abandoned on the front door steps to an orphanage. The orphanage took her in and named her Amber Smith. It was not long before it was discovered that she was actually a werewolf. The orphanage kept this fact hidden and tried to raise her as a normal human girl. Amber herself did not know she was a werewolf for many years. She finally discovered her true nature one day when she managed to accidentally transform into a wolf. That day she was beaten and told never to transform ever again. From that day on, her life was different. She was never trusted again, and she continued to grow up in the dark and quiet orphanage. Her greatest source of comfort was the other orphans who, surprisingly enough, sympathized with her. In their younger years they always begged her to transform, to show them how she looked as a wolf. She felt happy to accepted, but their games were dangerous. If ever they were discovered, they were viciously beaten and told to not go near Amber again. Most of them always came back, but inevitably some of the kids began avoiding her. Every time there were fewer and fewer kids who played with her. Eventually there was only a small group of kids who came back.

When they were older, Amber simply began rebelling more. She began transforming more frequently, but began getting caught even more. She was always found with bruises covering her arms and face, but she kept on going. She began developing thoughts of escaping the orphanage. She told her few friends and they eagerly decided to go with her.

That night they sneaked out of bed and began making their way out of the orphanage. Eventually, however, they were caught. Amber transformed and tackled the nurse that discovered them. She knocked her to the ground and began running with the other kids. The rest of the orphanage began waking up and the rest of the workers began chasing after them. Eventually the teens were cornered. Amber, furious that they had been caught, began growling, which only did her worse. Thinking that she might be becoming feral, they swooped in and pulled away the kids and began restraining Amber. They pinned her to the ground and slipped a choke-chain around her neck. They strangled her and she struggled weakly, whimpering for them to stop. One of the kids screamed to tell them to stop. One of the nurses got up and said something about making a call and began running off. After a few minutes, Amber made a massive effort and pushed off the two who had her pinned. Without thinking, she turned and savagely leaped towards them. It was all over soon enough. Transformed back into her human form, she sat in the puddle of blood she had left. She sobbed and cried, only adding her tears to the blood of the orphanage workers and her own friends. If only they hadn't been distracted by her struggling and had thought of bringing the kids back to the dormitories. If only she wasn't a werewolf...

She continued to cry, staring at the blood on her hands. She felt someone step closer to her. She turned slightly and saw leather military boots standing next to her. Before she bothered to look up, there was a click and something shot into her neck. Almost instantly, her vision blurred and her body weakened. She slowly collapsed into the puddle of blood and fell unconscious.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>

Kieron used to be a fun loving guy, always enjoying his time no matter what he was doing. He is sarcastic at heart, and very good-natured. His spirit is kind and fun, and he is one who always tries to see the good in things. Though he gets beaten down, it is difficult for him to give up hope completely. He is strong-willed, something he learned from his mother. Overall, Kieron is an intelligent and caring soul that can have a dark side if you betray him one too many times. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio/history:</span> 

Kieron grew up in the southern forests with his family, where they kept mostly to themselves. His mother was a werewolf, and the trait was passed on to him, though it skipped over his older sister. Kieron lived a rather normal childhood, behaving just as a regular person should. He did well in school, played sports, and went on to college. Over the years, his mother had taught him to control his shifting. She taught him that it was a gift, not a burden, and that it should be treated as such. He never used his werewolf abilities for wrongdoings, instead he used it as an escape. 

Kieron went to college where he played on the lacrosse team. Due to the high-contact and roughness of the sport, he paid many visits to the local doctor. After his senior year, the doctor asked him to come in for a final exam, to check and make sure he did not have any ""lasting effects from prior injuries."" Kieron saw it as a kind gesture from the doctor who had taken care of him for the past four years, making sure he was good to go after he graduated and began his life. But something was off... the doctor was acting strange, and before he knew it, a needle was stuck in his neck and he awoke in a strange place, with men in surgical gear hovering over him. He felt a pain in his side and tried to move, but his arms were strapped down. This was the beginning of his stent in what he would soon call Hell. Kieron has been in Lunie for less than a year now.

If one lived here, though, they tended to get used to the smell, which to newcomers could get overpowering at first. Today, some livers were due to be harvested, and the few werewolves who had managed to keep track of dates had spread the news. The collective anxiety was through the roof.
Aubrey was one of those, and the thought made her snarl softly to herself. The last thing she wanted to do was wear that stupid mask again, but most of the time when she bit her handlers it was instinctive. She just couldn't hold herself back. She paced in a circle, then quietly went behind one of the filthy canvas screens. They would find her, she knew that, but she didn't want it to be too easy for them. 


It was day one. Rey had already been told the basic layout of the building and what happened to the werewolves, but now was his chance to capture it all on video. Lunie Health loomed in front of him, black against the early morning sky. He took a moment to make sure his tiny camera was properly hidden on his work uniform, took a steeling breath to prepare himself for whatever he might see within the factory, and walked in through the main entrance. 
It was time.</div>"

Lunie considered these people dogs so they fed them like such. The banged-up gentleman, wearing a black cloth around his face to keep any bacteria or chunks out of his gaping head wound, was pushing around a cart holding a steel container of various raw meats, pumped with growth serums and antiseptics so the livers would stay healthy and get nice, big, and juicy. Yes, of course, it was degrading, it was <span class=""bb-i"">inhumane</span>. But the people in charge couldn't care less. Once again; <span class=""bb-i"">dogs</span>.

Clifford wasn't so sure of that discrimination. But he wasn't about to bring the issue up with his supervisor.

Some of the werewolves dotting Main Holding eyed him as he slowly, calmly scooped up clumps of meat and tossed it inside. A lot of them did their best to abstain from eating the stuff, knowing full well what it set them up for in the long run. But the issue was, well... they weren't getting anything else, save bins of water. So it was either starving to death, or facing the liver harvesting music.

Scoop by scoop, he went on undeterred.</div>"

She leaped to her feet and looked around wildly. She panted heavily, her chest heaving up and down as she struggled to breath. She immediately began to gag, the horrible stench of the room invading her nostrils. She noticed several other wolves in the room with her. She stared at them horrified and backed away. She spotted a nearby canvas screen which she hurriedly ran behind, her tail pathetically tucked between her legs. She whimpered and lay down on the grated floor, trying to not inhale the smell. She stared at the dried blood that caked her fur. The memory of what happened that night flooded back to her. She dipped her head and closed her eyes. That had to be why she was here. She made a big mistake and now she was paying the price.

 She jumped when she felt something land next to her. She stood and backed away from the object and stared at it. It was a slab of raw meat. She cringed, the smell of the room and the sight of the uncooked meat did not mix well. She timidly glanced at the man outside the room who was tossing the meat in. Was this really what they were going to eat? She slumped back down to the floor, eyeing the meat wearily.</div>"
1162,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-03 22:07:00,CLIW,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The sound of a scream turned Aubrey's head, and she caught a glimpse of a person running behind another screen, and snatching a disgusting-looking chunk of meat, she headed towards it. She blew a tangled lock of hair out of her face and peeked behind the screen, biting into her breakfast. She eyed her silently for about a minute, not sure what to say or even whether to bother with the young woman. She couldn't help the pity she felt, but at the same time, she was uncertain if she could trust anyone here. 
""Hey,"" she said. Her voice cracked; it had been a while since she used it. ""Sorry you ended up here. Can't help, but...yeah."" She glanced up somewhere and bit her dry lip. Soon they'd come for her. Soon there'd be a mask keeping her teeth from someone's neck again and an IV pumping her full of drugs. 


Rey had been sent toward Main Holding to round up the werewolves who were ""due"". He was to take them into individual surgical cells, restraining and sedating them if need be, and then he was to watch a more experienced employee remove the liver. The door didn't look very imposing. He pushed it open...
...and immediately pinched his nose shut while wrinkling his face in utter disgust. ""Gah!"" he grunted, and then braced himself before un-pinching his nose. He glanced down and made sure he was recording, but wished he could record the simply repellent scent of the place. 
He gulped and blinked. The stink had made his eyes water, but now it was time to do what he'd signed up for.</div>"

He took a rag out of his apron's pouch and wiped it off. Can't have any caked blood on it now, that wouldn't do at all. It'd been way too long since he'd seen a bottle of Windex around here. He tucked the rag back in the pouch and turned his head, watching some of the werewolves feed on the supplied meat. Some of them fought over one clump like savages, eventually separating it into two chunks. Whole thing was just... <span class=""bb-i"">nasty</span>.

Wonder how they'd react to a... nice steak dinner. Clifford would do that. If Lunie would allow it.

He turned his head and made his way towards the maintenance closet, pushing the cart with him to refill for one more go-around. The moment he got near the doors, they opened, with some spectacle-wearing-skinny-man marching in. The moment the smell of Main Holding flooded his nostrils, he grunted a bit and pinched his nose. Clear sign of a greenhorn, that was for sure. The man took a few steps forward before Clifford decided to cut in and stop him. Be polite. Offer him a tour. Get to know him before the guy probably starts regretting his decision to come here.

He set the cart aside and pulled down his facecloth. He slowly grabbed and held up his whiteboard with his hooks, holding it in front of his face and writing on it with a black marker from the pouch. The greenhorn, a little confused, watched as he turned the whiteboard around, now with a question presented upon it.

<span class=""bb-i"">New?</span></div>"

He blinked a few times and then wiped his face clean as he sat up. Looking around, he noticed the others begin to dig into their ""food."" With a heavy sigh, Kieron grabbed the piece of meat in front of him and eyed it for a moment before sinking his teeth into the rotten flesh. He ignored the sour taste, and the fact that he knew this was just a sad attempt at staving off starvation. The simple fact was that this was their only source of sustenance, and he would either have to eat, or die a slow, painful death. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Wouldn't that be nice.</span>

As a matter of fact, they would not allow him to starve to death. He had already tried it. His naturally optimistic and kind spirit had been withered down by his time in Lunie, and he only wished to end it. If a werewolf refused to eat, they simply tranquilized them and pumped them full of nutrients so that they could harvest that nice, plump liver. Kieron finished off the decomposing meat and looked down to his abdomen where the scar from the last removal was just barely visible now, thanks to werewolf healing abilities. But today, that scar would be reopened and he would begin the agonizing process all over again...</div>"

When she looked at the Amber when she eyed the piece of meat, she couldn't stop but analyze her and anyone close to Amber. It was a a habit and it tends to make time pass, which to her, made her calm. She ran a hand through her hair but pulled it back down when her torn sleeve went up. She hugged her knees whimpering softly as she put her head to her knees. 

Everything still hurt her from the last beaten and she was sure new scars were forming. She saw a piece of meat roll to her which made her snicker. <span class=""bb-i"">The food here makes me really want to throw up</span>, she got it before the others would take it. She felt her eyes tear up and fill with a urge to cry so hard, but she couldn't let the tears fall. She still felt betrayed from the accident....so to stop her from crying hard she ate the meat. Cringing at the taste, she swallowed it.</div>"

She managed to force her anxiety out of her mind long enough to take control and force her body into human form. She sighed and leaned against the canvas screen. She stared quietly at the dreary metal walls. She didn't know what she was going to do. There wasn't any thing to do. She was stuck here, wherever here was. The thought certainly didn't help her; She just felt worse now.

Amber hugged her legs tightly to her chest and rested her chin on her knees. Almost completely unaware of her surroundings due to her mood, she was highly caught by surprise when she heard a woman's voice speak to her. She whipped around and saw a woman peering around the edge of the canvas screen. The woman must have been here for a while, if her appearance was anything to go by. Amber worriedly glanced at the half eaten chunk of meat the woman held in one hand. Amber wasn't sure if it would be a good idea to trust anyone here, but it was almost comforting to hear the woman's attempt at conversation. She silently took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to speak. “W-What is this place?” Amber quietly asked the woman. “Why are we here?""</div>"

""It's like a factory farm,"" she said softly. Pity and dread weighed down on her, but it wouldn't help the girl to keep the truth from her. ""They want our livers. They cut part of it out, wait for it to grow back and then 'harvest' us again."" She considered sitting, but the grated floor looked particularly nasty here, so instead she glanced around. No one had a dart aimed at her. Yet. ""I am sorry. Perhaps...we could form a team,"" she said, her voice dropping to a whisper. ""Form a plan. Try to escape. Won't be easy, though."" She pinched her nose, took a bite out of the sickening cut of meat and forced it down. 



Although Rey was determined not to show it, he was certainly taken aback by the appearance of the man who'd approached him with a whiteboard. Relieved for the reason to look away from his face--he didn't want to be rude and stare--he read the text. New? it asked. He nodded sheepishly, feeling embarrassed despite himself. ""Sorry, sir. My supervisor warned me, but...<span class=""bb-i"">wow.</span> How do you manage?""</div>"

He couldn't blame the new guy for wondering how a walking crash test dummy like him was still alive and harvesting livers at this point. He wrote on the whiteboard some more and then turned it around.

<span class=""bb-i"">Hard body.</span>

Clifford was a simple man with simple views. It didn't matter much to him what other folks wanted. But what was a skinny guy like this doing on Lunie's payroll? This wasn't some cheap meat grocer with a couple of butchers. This was a full-fledged operation with live, sentient victims.

Clifford directed the new guy over to the storage closet. Figured he'd show him some of the ropes. After setting the cart under a meat repository, he turned back to him and wrote another message on his whiteboard.

<span class=""bb-i"">Clifford Briley. You?</span></div>"
1170,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-07 06:09:00,Valkyr,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Amber stared at the women in utter horror. She wrapped her arms around her torso and hugged herself tightly. ""O-Our livers?"" She stammered. She looked away and didn't say anything for a while. She simply buried her face in her knees and returned to tightly hugging her legs to her chest, this time while gently rocking back and forth. Eventually she stopped rocking and looked up at the woman, her eyes noticeably more red than usual.
""But how could we possibly escape?"" She asked quietly.</div>"
1171,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-07 16:49:00,CLIW,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Aubrey's gaze fell to the stained metal that crisscrossed below them. ""It won't be easy,"" she replied. ""And I will probably be recovering from surgery, which would only complicate things. But we cannot be slaves forever. I've lost track of how long I've been here; you don't deserve to suffer that long. No one does."" She sighed and looked around again. The time was growing near. 


Rey followed the man, trying to resist the urge to pinch his nose shut. He glanced around the closet and back toward the man's whiteboard. ""R--Jesse, sir. Jesse Wilson. Nice to meet you. I've been told I should find a surgeon so I can observe the extraction process. Are you one?""</div>"
1172,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-07 17:00:00,SepticGentleman,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Amazing that some folks still call it ""surgery"" in here. Surgery implies that it's for the benefit of the patient. This all came down to the more appropriate term of ""harvesting"". Some certified employees were a lot messier, admittedly. Not Clifford. Even with a prosthetic hook-hand, he always managed a clean liver extraction. Like pulling the meat from inside cattle.

Clifford waved Jesse out of the storage room and led him back over to Main Holding, towards the enclosures. He had his prod at the ready, just in case he <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> to use it. Not to torture the poor things, just to defend himself. If Jesse needed to observe the extraction process, now was a great time to sign up for a seat. First step of the procedure - round up someone to cut open.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Catch a werewolf by the toe.</div>"

She hoped the woman would be able to come up with a good plan. She hated to think what might happen if they were caught.

She jumped suddenly when she heard a strange sound in the room. She crawled to her feet and walked to the edge of the canvas screen. She cautiously peered around the side and searched for the source of the noise. She watched as two men entered the room, one ominously holding a electric prod. She stared at them for a while until it hit her. Of course, they had to be here for the ""harvest."" She quickly hid behind the screen again and turned towards the woman.
""I-I think they're h-here,"" She said, her whole body starting to shake in fear.</div>"

It made her cringe when the frightened girl said her words knowing it was time. 

She got up from her spot walking to go see who it was going to be this time to cut one of them open. Once she could see them, she notice they were males. One of them was a person she never saw before and the other was the same one who gave them food. He seemed to be holding something too. Her grey eyes darkened when she found out it was a electric prod. Was he really going to hit us with that? 

She was scared now if she was chosen, so she let out a soft growl before turning towards her corner. She moved her tangled light brown hair to the side as she sat back down. Even if it was her she couldn't do anything. They will hurt her till no end if she kept on resisting. And she couldn't take that right now.....</div>"
1175,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-09 03:27:00,CLIW,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Aubrey bolted up so she was standing as straight as a pole. She fixed the two men with a wide stare and then shrank back behind the screen. They were here. That was them. It was her time. Her upper lip lifted itself to reveal her mean, sharp teeth and a growl rumbled from her chest into her throat. The part of her that knew logic and common sense wanted to give in; after all, the worker had a prod and would easily beat her into bloody submission if he needed to. But there was the part of her that made her a werewolf: The wild animal in her, the creature that responded to threats by <span class=""bb-i"">being</span> one. Like always, this part won over, and the soft warning growl had increased to thunder now. 

Rey felt a chill run down his spine. He made sure to stay behind Clifford. One of them sounded like it was definitely going to jump out at them and attack, and he felt surrounded. He glanced around, hoping to see the friend who'd gone missing. He wasn't there. Pushing back disappointment, he focused back on Clifford and the weapon he held. The sound of growling was really creeping him out, but could he really blame them? All he could do was keep filming and hope they didn't tackle him and break the minuscule camera.</div>"
1176,The Werewolf Factory,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75909-the-werewolf-factory,['Casual'],2015-02-09 03:50:00,SepticGentleman,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Clifford worked his way towards the girl who was growling up a storm, prod in hand. Jesse was following close behind, probably scared like a crapping dog. In this situation, he was like a chihuahua among pinschers. Clifford eased up on the werewolf staring dead at him and, unexpectedly, handed Jesse the prod. There was a confused look on the newbie's face as he took the prod in hand, keeping the sparky bit away from his face.

Clifford calmly took a small, shiny packet out of his apron pouch. He held it over the casing of his prosthetic, squeezing a viscous, semi-yellow fluid over it. He put the packet away and smeared the substance over his arm. This was a trick he used often - slap some numbing fluid on his prosthetic, goad a werewolf to attack him, and watch them quickly slump over, numb throughout their bodies and locked down on his arm. Yeah, he'd have to pry off whoever bit him but that wasn't a problem. Plus with the casing around the prosthetic, the wires wouldn't get snapped and render it useless. This was better than beating the poor things into submission with a prod, a tactic used by <span class=""bb-i"">other</span> employees.

Clifford hunched over as best as his brace would allow, holding out his prosthetic, <span class=""bb-i"">daring</span> the werewolf to lunge at him. Jesse was still watching, still holding the prod at the ready. Whole situation didn't look friendly at all, but... well, this isn't a friendly place.

Clifford kind of wished it were, though.</div>"

He looked over to see the usual keeper, Cliff, beginning to round up those ready to be taken for harvest. But an unfamiliar figure was behind Cliff, and an unfamiliar scent soon followed into Kieron's nose. His nostrils flared as he took in the new scent. He could smell the timidness on the man, clearly someone new. Which was sort of strange, seeing as Lunie wasn't ready and willing to bring outsiders in on their little torture chamber very often.

Though Kieron usually remained in his human form (in part due to his lack of strength to shift) he was still very keen on his werewolf insticts. And with that, came a pack mentality. When he heard the defensive growling of one of his cellmates, a deep growl quickly began to grow in his chest. He knew what would happen, they would be prodded or drugged or shot with a tranquilizer. But that wasn't enough to stop the <span class=""bb-i"">instincts.</span> He took a few steps closer on his shaky legs and the growling was now fully audible. He kept a low stance, almost crouched as he waited for someone to make a move.</div>"

She let out a snarl at the thought of one of them being cut open just for their livers. It made her want to growl and rip their heads off. 

She got up and walked towards the bars staring at them. She looked at the first wolf who growled and notice she was the one that stayed here longer then anyone. She looked at the other one and notice it was a male. He seemed so weak and tired.

She looked back at the two males on the other side of the bars. She let out s notice that sounded like half a growl and half a sigh. She had a strange feeling the girl growling wad the one being chosen. And it made her eyes flash with pity and anger. This place makes her angry on what they do to them.</div>"

Rey realized what his new coworker was doing in mid-sentence. ""O-oh my god. Is this...is this safe?"" He looked around, his throat dry. Everyone appeared to be snarling at them. This was certainly not an ideal situation. Sweating a little bit, he adjusted the camera and tried to swallow. Now all he could do was mutter, ""Jesus,"" and hope that this man was more sane than he looked right now. 


Aubrey was practically a second away from transforming, and nearly foaming at the mouth. She stared the glorified zookeepers in the eyes and backed away, knowing full well that she would run out of space to back into very soon. Some inner voice was telling her to stop freaking out and go peacefully, but she didn't listen. ""You can't have my liver...I'm using it,"" she said, her voice so snarly that it was nearly unrecognizable.</div>"

She struggled to block out the furious growls of the werewolves. She felt a strange feeling growing inside of her. The rage and savagery of the werewolves was affecting her mind. She felt certain instincts that she had only ever felt once before begin to form again. She viciously shook her head, as if to throw the thoughts out of her head.

She staggered over to the woman, her mind still unstable. She desperately gripped the woman's arm and tried pulling her back. ""C-Calm down!"" She growled weakly. She was desperate to calm her down to hopefully calm herself in the process.</div>"

""They want to cut me open and take out what's mine. They want to package it and sell it to some gullible asshole in a health food store. And you...you want me to calm down?"" In the course of the short rant, her teeth had lengthened and her face had distorted in her rage. She pulled away from the woman's grip and transformed, lunging at Clifford with a roar and clamping her jaws down around his arm. She only had a moment to think vaguely through the haze of anger that it tasted funny before a numbing sensation started spreading down her. Her growls weakened and she tried to let go, but couldn't find the strength. 


Needless to say, this all gave Rey a good scare. As Aubrey leaped out at Clifford in the form of a scruffy brown wolf, he practically jumped five feet back and nearly fell on his ass. He cringed at the sight of it all; he knew it would be messed up but not like this. ""Mother of god,"" he gasped, staring at the enraged wolf whose expression was slowly changing to alarm as her body struggled not to go limp.</div>"

Clifford eased up his stance with Aubrey locked down on his arm, numb to the bone. If he could smile, he certainly would right about now. He raised his other hand and patted it on the unconscious Aubrey's head like nothing was wrong.

<span class=""bb-i"">Pap, pap.</span>

He turned and started dragging the transformed Aubrey out towards the Main Holding gates. He waved for Jesse to get back up and follow him before the onlooking werewolves decided to go ham on the two. Jesse quickly picked up the shock prod and hurried behind Clifford, locking the gate behind the two as they made their way outside. Clifford was hauling Aubrey along with seemingly no effort. Unsurprising, for a man of his stature. Jesse merely followed along, observing intently, making quick glances back at the caged specimens.

They made their way to the extraction rooms. Time for a <span class=""bb-i"">professional</span> demonstration of the company practice.</div>"

She watched the men leave the room, one dragging away the unconscious werewolf. It wouldn't be long before shed have to suffer the liver extraction again.

He suddenly felt even weaker and he put his back against the cell walls, sliding to the floor as he awaited the time when he would be dragged out of here either unconscious or too beaten down to resist anymore. 

His canines retracted in his mouth and his breathing slowed, without others to egg him on he calmed down. It was silly, how they were kept in here like animals. They weren't, each of them had a life before being in here, some a family and friends. He sighed and looked around at all of the agitated and anxious people around him. He put his fingers on the scar on his side and winced at the thought that in a few hours, it would be open and raw yet again.</div>"

These are typical advertisements. Everyone hears them, and many believe them, although of course they hardly have the slightest kernel of truth. No one, however, seems at all curious about where all these werewolf livers and bile are coming from. Why would they be? After all, werewolves are subhuman degenerates; turning them into scammy health care supplements serves to get the bastards away from people who they'd doubtlessly murder innocent people otherwise. Right? 

""Lunie Health"" prides itself on being the world’s number-one werewolf liver provider. They not only make it into their own supplements, they sell the liver, most often in powdered form, to other health-food stores, which make their own medicines. It is a giant company.

Not many people know the darker truth about Lunie; maybe they don’t want to know. They have a single giant factory located somewhere in the Great Plains, about five miles from the nearest town. This is where all the werewolf livers come from, and where the roleplay will take place. 

Werewolves, contrary to popular belief, are most often just normal people, other than the fact that they can shapeshift at will. They blend in, tell few people if anyone their secret, create families, and lead regular lives, although the actions of a few werewolves have generated a popular hatred for them. 
But the days of blending in ended with the start of the liver craze and the founding of Lunie Health. New research proved that werewolves have a higher normal body temperature as well as tapetums in their retinas (even when human). People started disappearing, shot with tranquilizers in dark alleys or drugged at parties and snuck out. All of them were werewolves, caught and brought to Lunie for the money. 

Now, here you are. Maybe you’ve just woken up in a poorly-lit room that stinks of antiseptic and blood and looked down to see a surgical scar across your abdomen. Maybe you’ve been here for years, planning escapes and failing at them, sitting in a filthy corner while the Surgeons wait for your liver to grow back from the last time they cut it out. Maybe you’re a normal human who works at Lunie. Can you get out of here alive? If you make it to the outside world, can you expose Lunie’s crimes? 

Note- All werewolves are shackled, and ""problem"" werewolves wear a mask that covers their mouth, kind of like the one Hannibal Lecter wore in Silence of the Lambs. Silver causes an allergic reaction in werewolves, usually hives and swelling. The shackles are silver-plated.

Just two questions though: where is Lunie Health based? Like, what country? I just want to know before I write my character's bio.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Tataruki Monzaemon 
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias/Title:</span> ""<span class=""bb-i"">The Red Fox</span>"" 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Tataruki is not seen dealing with members outside the clan all too often, so a full analysis of her abilities has yet to be done. What can be inferred is that she is disdainful of anyone outside the Monzaemon clan and thus, a threat. Be wary: the Monzaemon are known for the specialty in Chakra Thread and Puppet Techniques, and since little is known about Tataruki, it is unsure where her specialty resides.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> A slender and small woman, Tataruki could be mistaken for a small man, if not for her long and feminine hair, her distinct clothing style, and her accentuated makeup, all to underscore her feminine identity. Of note, she is known to wield two kunai, wear a cloak which could hide additional unknown tools, and she always seems to have a fox by her side. The fox is rumored to have a connection to some of her techniques, but all gossip has come up short of an accurate description so far.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Only known to be steadfast and true to the Monzaemon cause, Tataruki's specific history isn't very well-known since she isn't a famous nor an infamous kunoichi. Her role as Clan Enforcer has recently been discovered though, as divulged by a Monzaemon runaway, as well as the fact that it's a relatively new position for her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> Tataruki's influence is only a slight bit above average because of her important role as Clan Enforcer. Though in no way a superior of any sort, Tataruki's influence is also confined to exist only with the clan, as she doesn't deal much outside of the clan, unless ordered to or necessary to. Outside of the clan, her name would carry little weight, if any.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Zume Tatasuko.
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias/Title:</span> Suiteiru Meian(Vacant Shade).
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Zume Tatasuko is a known inheritor of the infamous, but mysterious Tatasuko Kekkei genkai, the Kusa chūō no sei. As such he has been noted not only as an accomplished swordsman, but something of a jack of all trades. If you have made an enemy of this man you ought to hide or find some means with which to amend the misunderstanding, he is not to be trifled with. Thus far he has been seen utilizing a mixture of kenjutsu, ninjutsu, taijutsu, and perhaps trace amounts of genjutsu. His style is elegant, deadly, and ever-changing making him what some might call a jack-of-all-trades. It is hard to say what his actions will be, but it is easy to state that he is a force with which to be reckoned.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Standing at 6 feet and weighing in at 182 lbs Zume Tatasuko typically wears a garb of black with white trim to contrast. He possesses black hair and roguish features with little facial hair aside from his goatee. Reports on his eye color vary from a normal coloration of hazel and a terrifying abyssal black, it is unknown which color is the true one. He has been seen to wield a blade despite not carrying one on his person.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Besides his time with his clan, the Tatasuko, little is known of this enigmatic shade aside from his undefeated combat record when necessary and tendency to side either with those who cannot defend themselves or are, from his perspective, in the right. His name tends to bring either fear, awe, or respect from those who have encountered or heard of him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> Peacekeeper and Clan Speaker.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Hato Uchiha (鳩うちは)
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias/Title:</span> White Wing Hato/ Noble One
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> A wielder of the Sharingan and one of there infamous prodigal children at that, Hato is a rare breed of dangerous. His eyes have allowed him many advantageous perks that is not normally acquired by mortal ninjas. I have not directly viewed his skills but records and scouts have noted that his skills with a blade is just as renowned as himself. I'am beside myself with awe at the odds this youth has overcome. Even amongst the Uchiha Clan his name is spoken softly and only with respect. As I go through my notes, it appears he is skilled with ninjutsu as well, though his specific type is hard to guess. Either way, he is well beyond his year in terms of power. Be wary. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Previous records state that he is nearing 6'0” feet now, though I'd note that his last precise measurement was 5'11”. He's a slender boy with fair skin and intense eyes, withdrawing the sharingan from being in use of course. He's often garbed in a cloak, leaving little to be seen underneath but its certain that he carries a porcelain blade and onyx magatama stud in his right ear.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> I do believe his parents were both members of the Uchiha clan who left for their love of peace. Once they were killed, young Hato roamed the countries with his younger brother continuing peace efforts on behalf of his parents. Unfortunately, his younger brother was slain in the Water Country shortly afterwards and in his grief he returned to his clan. His skills were already great but after joining, it seems they have become tales to sing of.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Toyotomi Uchiha.

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias/Title:</span> Heavenly Flame.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Toyotomi is the less blessed of the twins but one of the most powerful Uchiha currently. He possesses a mastery with in Katon and has created an incredibly powerful fire release known as the White Flame Art which garnered his title. Blessed with such ability, Toyotomi can intertwine his impeccable shurikenjutsu with his shiaringan and white flame art to create various advantages in combat. Not only can Toyo rely upon shurikenjutsu and white flames but he is also proficient in advanced space-time, a skill that has kept him alive for several years. The Former Uchiha Clan Head is a dangerous opponent to deal with. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Anyone that is anyone knows that the Uchiha's Former Clan Head is very childish and happy most of the time. His serious side has only been seen by a few, like the time when he and his twin massacred an entire clan. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known history:</span> History has told many a stories about Toyotomi's life from his obscure nature as a Uchiha who has live for over 100 years to the many battles against the many clans that hailed him as the Heavenly Flame, to his much darker history of massacring hostile clans in the name of the Uchiha. Only a handful truly know of his past but for everyone else he's an enigma that continues to be watched by the shinobi world. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> Toyotomi has lifted the Uchiha Clan to the heights of greatness, instilling in the world their mark as ninja willing to help those but will stoop to any level to destroy their enemies when threatened. Being one of the few advanced users of Space-Time, Toyotomi has heightened the world's knowledge on space-time and influenced the popularity of the fire nature. Toyotomi fought and defeated the Nakamura's clan head who held part of the Land of Fire in an iron grip. History has proclaimed Toyotomi to be a saviour by some and villain in disguise to others.

Name: Uchiha Yoshiro

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias/Title:</span> Shiro

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Uses a moderately developed Sharingan in battle, both to track enemies and to place them under genjutsu. Employs an arrangement of fire and lightning ninjutsu during fights, both offensive and defensive measures. In addition to ninjutsu, Yoshiro wields a 3 foot long katana dubbed Reikon and is proficient in thrown weapons such as kunai and shuriken. General style of combat consists of keeping enemies at a distance with ninjutsu, though if necessary he can use his sword fairly well. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Yoshiro is a modest 5' 8"" tall, and has a fit build, pale skin and dark eyes. Retaining boyish features though he is a young man, he weighs in at 130 pounds and has medium length black hair which well below his chin and to the base of his neck. While his attire generally consists of dark clothing, he wears a white cloak with the Uchiha crest on the back when operating in the field of battle. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Son of Toyotomi, the former head of the Uchiha clan, and brother to the current head. A Jōnin in his clan, one of the youngest, and an accomplished combatant on the field. Currently serves as an extension of the head family outside of clan territory, answering solely to his sister and father.

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> Member of the head family and respected for his combat prowess despite his young age. Has little say in official matters of the clan, meaning his influence generally is limited to combat oriented matters.

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> Tasatsu Tsuki(Blood Moon).
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Tasatsu, as he is sometimes called, is known to be an accomplished assassin and upfront combatant both, skilled in all three shinobi disciplines, though to varied degrees. It is clear that he either uses the Gentle Fist style, or one very similar to it. He carries few notable weapons beyon the typical shinobi supplies, but is an individual not to be trifled with as most do not survive their encounters with him. What information has been amassed here is by pure luck, and I suspect, the grace of Tasatsu Tsuki himself, likely to proliferate his notoriety. Avoid at all costs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Standing at 6 feet, and weighing 210, most of which comes from muscle, the Hyuga is a daunting man to look upon. Typically garbed in greys, blacks, with crimson or white accents, Shinku is typically quite easy to distinguish in a crowd, if not by his clothes, then by the aura of malice that shrouds him like his black cloak. More often than not he can be seen with a slight smirk on his lips and a dark, foreboding amusement in his eyes likening him to the guise of a starved beast—ravenous and unpredictable. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Essentially nothing is known about Tasatsu beyond his appearance in the line of mercenary work roughly 7 or so years ago as if from nowhere. He has left a trail of blood in his wake, yet evades capture and slaughters those who become overzelous in their attempts to restrain him. He has been known to kill clans in the dead of night, he has also been known to lead coup d' etats at the whim of others, or to simply slaughter children. Whatever he gets paid to do, and whatever he enjoys doing, he will do. Nonetheless, it is best to be wary, for should an employer not satisfy his amusement, then they will become his next target—a dire risk to take for any task, a dire risk indeed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> While he has little to no practical influence, Tasatsu is easily capable of manipulating people through their loved ones or things they hold dear. Additionally, the fear his name, or rather title, instills in others is often enough to convince them to go along with his wishes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Mirai Tensai.

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> The Young Sage.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Ability Information:</span> Almost nothing specifically is known about Mirai’s abilities due to the nature in which she conducts herself. What is known, however, is that she <span class=""bb-i"">loves</span> to fight. She is something of a legend as far as her insatiable lust for combat.  Mirai is known for her work as a mercenary, hiring herself out to clans in exchange for room and board. She very rarely asks for more than that. She is an incredible competent fighter in close range and specializes in stealth, assassination and supporting other fighters.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known Description:</span> Mirai is said to be a short woman with a monkey’s tail. She is said to carry a large scroll on her back and sometimes she is seen sporting a black and yellow vest. Not much is known about her physicality, making it difficult to identify her without her scroll. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Apparently she was raised in the Land of Water by the monkey sages. Sounds like bullshit to me. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Influence:</span> She has little to no influence among humans, but to other summoning creatures she is revered as the monkey sage and is very well respected in their community. According to legend she once convinced a summon to fight against its contract bearer.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Organization:</span></span> N/A
  
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Earth, Wind

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Goro stands at 5’10” and weighs in at roughly 175lbs (79kg). Like the majority of his family, he has a mane of dark red hair almost dark enough to be considered maroon. Jagged, messy locks sit atop his pale face which is framed by a jawline beard of the same color. Goro has a blue formula tattoo running along his jawline though it is mostly hidden by his beard. His almond-shaped eyes are colored like tarnished brass, coppery with small flecks of green.  His shoulders are broad, but not overly so, with his muscular forearms appearing prominent over his biceps. The muscular structure of his core is toned but not bulky. Several scrapes and calluses mar his forearms, knuckles, and palms. There are tattoo “formulas” covering his lower abdomen and the small of his back in the same blue tattoo ink that runs along his jaw and chin. Goro’s lower body is toned in much the same way as his core, but his thighs are particularly muscular. His appearance clearly shows great power in his taijutsu-essential muscles.

Goro’s clothing consists of a dark blue shirt trimmed with white around the edges. The shirt has one long sleeve that covers his left arm to the wrist and fans out slightly, while his right arm is sleeveless and  remains exposed save for the white bandages wrapped along its length. The shirt has a deep V neck that goes midway down his abdomen. Beneath his shirt are yet more bandages covering his lower abdomen and tattoos hidden there. A bright red sash belt splits his long shirt at the waist, with the tail of it reaching the back of his knees. Goro’s trousers appear to be made of a kind of woven mesh consisting of blackened leather and a dark blue cloth, going all the way down to his knees where they meet a pair of red, scale armored boots with dark gray plates running down to the front to the toe. A dark red satchel is tied securely to the small of his back, as well as the dark red kunai pouch on his right leg.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Goro was born into a family dominated by a matriarch hierarchy, the numbers of which have dwindled down to scarcity. Being both the youngest and the only male of his siblings has made things difficult for Goro. His family was purged by rivals in The Land of Water and they fled to the Land of Earth. Goro was born after this purge and from a different father than his four older sisters. As such, he has been reviled as a mutt by his siblings. On top of everything else, he lacks the water affinity that the rest of his family boasts which has resulted in a difficult training process as a shinobi.

Up until the age of 14 Goro only learned taijutsu from his non-Sroda father, a relative of the Nara clan. It was at this age that his father began teaching him about the research he conducted on chakra natures and the way chakra is expelled from the body and transformed. This is when Goro first learned about chakra formulas and glyphs, taking a particular interest in water jutsu since he still felt he lacked what the other members of his family had. With the aid of local Earth-style shinobi and his father, Goro began learning to utilize his own chakra natures of earth and wind. The result was a taijutsu-based fighting style that heavily incorporated the defensive properties of earth-based jutsu with a few wind-based techniques thrown in. On top of that, his father’s Formulaic Glyphs allowed him to briefly tap into water techniques when the need arose.

When Goro turned 17, his father left him and the rest of his family. He only told Goro that he was leaving to help an old friend with his chakra research in The Land of Fire. He refused to let Goro come with him, telling him that it wouldn’t be a good idea because of the sensitive nature of the research and that there were some people who didn’t like his ideas and may try to harm them. 

For three years Goro lived with his family, taking the emotional and mental abuse that came with being a child born out of exile. His siblings made constant reminder of how he wasn’t purely Sroda and that the only way he could use water jutsu was by faking it with his fathers “bastard science experiments”. It was enough to make Goro go mad. 

And so at the age of 20, Goro set off on his own, uncertain of what he was looking for exactly; But wholly hoping in the back of his mind that he would bump into his father. He <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to find some way to become powerful enough that his family would acknowledge him. If he could find his father and his colleague in the Land of Fire, he knew they would have something or some way to attain the power he desired. Lacking both the water styles and the shadow manipulation of both parents, Goro knew he would one day find a way to surpass them all. 

It has been 4 years since he first set off and he’s met a few friends along the way, Isha and Yue, who he’s become rather close to.
  
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span>  Goro maintains the brooding stoicism of his mother, while supplementing it with a social confidence bestowed upon him by his father. While in front of others, Goro is very open about his feelings but not the type to wear all his thoughts on his face, knowing when is the best time to hide his hand. Now and again he will slip up and become too brash, often saying something inappropriate or nonsensical. These moments often cause him great embarrassment though he doesn’t allow them to cause long-term distress.

Due to the way he grew up, Goro often suffers from a sense of inadequacy and feels like he is being judged. This is the number one trigger for the brash moments previously mentioned. With that said, he’s confident in his skill at least to the point that he knows he can prove himself to those who look down on him. He definitely falls under the lawful neutral banner.

<span class=""bb-b"">Canon Jutsu</span>
<a href=""#"">Earth Release Armor</a>: Goro primarily uses this as a defensive method for tanking strikes and encasing the enemy’s limb or weapon in stone to open them up for an attack. Since it is very heavy, he usually remains stationary whilst using this technique.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth_Style_Wall"">Earth Release: Earth Style Wall</a>: Goro is only capable of making walls a short distance (no more than 3 meters) away and only a couple of feet thick.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth_Spear"">Earth Release: Earth Spear</a>: Goro has not mastered this jutsu and as such, can only harden his fingertips, knuckles, and palms for a brief time.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth_Corridor"">Earth Release:  earth Corridor</a>: Goro has only mastered this jutsu to the point that he can encase himself and two other adults within the cavern interior, which is not particularly large.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Blade_of_Wind"">Blade Of Wind</a>: Goro uses this in place of most thrown weapons, though his wind blades are small; About the size of a standard shuriken.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span>Formulaic Glyph Mimicry 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Multipurpose ninjutsu.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Varies depending on jutsu being mimicked 

<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span>  Close (touch) to far

<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Uses an Earth-based ink but can mimic others 

<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3 Inu, Saru, Hitsuji (Of course, the formula has to be completed before the glyph can be activated)

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span>  Using reactive chakra paper (used to identify affinities), Goro’s father has developed several formulas using a metallic ink that changes the way the chakra flows from one’s body. It changes the pathways the chakra travels by diverting it with the ink. Using small slips or even large ribbons of the paper, and a very complex and time consuming formula, the Goro can essentially mimic (but not perfect) the effects of most ninjutsu. The more complex and powerful the jutsu, however, the more complex and time consuming it is to write a formula for it, sometimes taking weeks or even months to replicate. One example of this would be writing a formula on several small squares of the paper before gluing them together into one “card”. The card could then be stuck onto the lips and allow anyone with the proper training to use one fireball jutsu, even if they weren’t capable of using it before due to lacking the chakra nature. The paper and the formula disintegrate at this point, making it a high risk jutsu if not used at the right time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The time it takes to prepare one jutsu can range from minutes to days or even weeks, making preparation long beforehand necessary. There is massive room for error if the formula is not perfect, which would produce no result or an undesired one. On top of that there is the loss of the entire jutsu if not used properly. If you miss with your attack then that’s it, the formula is gone. These factors make the jutsu sometimes impractical, difficult, as well as dangerous and tedious to use. This means that the jutsu is a powerful, fast, one-shot weapon that can be extremely hazardous if misused. On top of everything else, extensive study must be done to mimic a jutsu. Simply observing a new jutsu one or two times will not allow Goro to write a formula for it. He must either study how it is used or be taught as if he could use it himself. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Misc.:</span> Goro fancies chewing tobacco, and as such, tends to carry some with him. It can mean a great deal of frustration for him if he runs out or is unable to obtain more.  Not only that, but he finds spitting disgusting, which means if anyone’s around, he will tend to swallow the tobacco juice rather than spit and be rude. This makes for stomach aches now and then.

Goro's nickname comes from the fact that he uses rock-based ninjutsu, and is constantly writing about his formulas in his journal (scribing).</div></div></div>"

Far away from civilisation Ito trained diligently under his first two masters. The first was his mother. She had been a powerful shinobi but years of fighting wore her down, eventually she gave up the constant cycle of combat to live an almost ascetic life in the mountains she had fought to protect. When she gave birth to Ito she decided she would pass the only two remaining things of value down to him. She had no desire for a clan but she was keenly aware of her own mortality, as most ninja are, and she saw Ito as her life beyond death. She first gave him her knowledge of chakra manipulation. She brought him up on constant meditation, making him keenly aware of the flow of chakra through his own body. 

Having been gifted with an expert knowledge of chakra control from his mother, at the age of 10 he began training with the mountains, his second master. In the rain high up in the mountains, the howling winds and the timeless rocks Ito hardened and learned. It was through this constant exposure to the rain and rock Ito began to extend the chakra from within him and exert control over the world around him. With the help of his mother he quickly learned to use earth and water releases. His style developed as a close range barrage of chakra, employed in unorthodox methods, due to his individual training. 

At 17 he finally exceeded his mother's ability and so she gave him her second gift, the only weapon she had taken with her when she left her duties as a shinobi behind. It was a sword named 'shibuki'. Shibuki was an extremely valuable weapon, however Ito and his mother both knew that receiving it meant that it was his time to leave. Unlike ninjutsu, a sword needed blood. Ito left on a pilgrimage of the blade. However his first fight against a group of bandits, whom he had underestimated, cost him dearly. He had not properly learned to control the blade properly and sustained severe damage. He was left bleeding, surrounded by corpses. He managed to cling desperately to life in a near catatonic state, and in this state, driven by his desire to live, he etched into his memory every mistake he had made in the fight. He probably would have died if he had not been discovered by a group of ninja hunting the bandits. This practice of burning his mistakes into his memory, combined with the fruits of his 10 year long pilgrimage of the blade, have produced a shinobi worthy of being one of the seven legendary swordsman, and worthy of wielding Shibuki.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Ito is almost unnervingly attentive, his years of pilgrimage giving him a sixth sense for aggression. His many near death experiences have resulted in extreme cautiousness, and when things don't go to plan he becomes wild and aggressive. It's a fault he tries not to let get to him, but he's almost always more scared than he lets on, after all overconfidence has very nearly had him killed several times.

Ito tries to come across as polite, and usually overcompensates.This is likely to be due to the fact that he feels a slight paranoia that people sense the metaphorical blood on his hands, although it's probably only true of experienced ninja.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Description</span>:The sword itself features two distinct sides, with a narrow cutting edge located down the entirety of one length and a wide platform section on the other. A scroll in the centre unrolls along this latter side, sliding downwards and resting atop its surface to form an individual segment comprised from numerous explosive tags, which separates from the remainder upon detonation. These can be ignited by Ito at any time using his chakra, and are automatically replaced as the scroll unwinds. Ito can wield it as it weighed the same amount as a katana.

His physical strength is good enough to be able to wield shibuki with great skill for extended periods of time without a problem,and while he isn't flimsy, his strong self preservation instincts mean that he is likely to look for an escape route it if a battle isn't going to plan.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Techniques:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Canon Jutsu</span>
<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Light-Weight_Rock_Technique"">Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique</a>: Ito's favourite technique, using it he can moved at extraordinary speeds, and while he can't fly very well, he can use it to make huge, high speed jumps.
<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Dustless_Bewildering_Cover"">Dustless Bewildering Cover</a>: Ito's mastery of this is far from perfect, and any experienced sensory type shinobi will pick up his presence. Ito also can not use this jutsu for extended periods of time.
<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Aggravated_Rock_Technique"">Earth Release: Aggravated Rock Technique</a>:Ito can only use this for a very limited time in an a spherical are of radius about 7ft.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span>Water Shotgun Technique
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span>Ninjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close range, approximately equal to a shotgun blast.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Water.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 5.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Ito unleashes a storm of water bullets from his hand, each with enough rotational power to penetrate and damage bone at close range.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Requires the target to be very close as it is essentially an area of effect attack in a short cone in front of him. Comparatively little power for each bullet, so even managing to only partially dodge results in a comparatively large reduction of damage. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Flying Mountain Technique
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close to middle range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Earth
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 7
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Ito calls forms, jagged rocks in the air, which can then be manipulated via chakra for a short time. The rocks spin at high velocity, and will deal significant damage to anything they hit. More chakra can be used to increase the size of the rocs (more weight will mean more damage).
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Spinning means the rocks require a lot of chakra to control, and loss of concentration, or the required chakra input will result in the rocks simply disintegrating. Heavier rocks move more slowly.


<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Explosive Edge
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kenjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close range, must be in close range.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Ito extends the scroll of shibuki by swinging his blade, and then manually detonates it. This creates the effect of an exploding sword. This can be repeated to create a series of longer range  sword attacks that are very difficult to block. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> There is a 5 second recharge time between each slash, on top of this he is swinging paper from the sword, so a sharp eyed opponent will see the direction of attack by the slash he makes with his hands. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span>Heavy Rain Technique 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Nintaijutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Very Close Range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Water.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 12
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Ito gathers rain drop sized, rotating bullets of water his person. They follow his flow of chakra allowing him to concentrate them in one place of spread them thinly. When spread thinly they won't do much more than knock a strike slightly off course. However when focussed and used to strike, the collective impacts at different angle cause the target to explode outwards. Average weapons will usually shatter, will if it makes direct contact with a body it will eviscerate the area hit. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Very close range (taijutsu range), can only be maintained for about 3 seconds due to the colossal focus and chakra required by the technique. following the chakra means that when attacking he leaves himself extremely open to counterattack.</div></div></div>"

The majority of their clan are gatherers or hunters, with a small fraction of their ilk being shinobi and an even smaller fraction of their shinobi possessing their unique kekkei genkai. Most know their kind only as mysterious shades who lurk in the shadows and do their utmost to stay out of the world’s ongoings. Due to the Hahaoya no joumyaku spreading beneath the earth and throughout the world their specific location is unknown.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span></span> S rank/level.<br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Position:</span></span> Clan Ambassador/Representative.<br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Mukōton(Void release).<br/><br/><a href=""http://safebooru.org//images/845/3dd4d79d4b9e28b4c0b392770d6654c0a274a10e.jpg?850421"" rel=""nofollow"">Appearance:</a><br/>This mysterious man, one of the few truly pure blooded Tatasuko stands at a generous 6 feet and weighs in at 185 lbs, his build toned rather than muscular. Beneath his clothing are worn metallic bracers of a pitch-black coloration, tainted by the void. In addition to this, despite his nature as a Tatasuko and inheritor of the Kusa Chūō no sei, which would darken his eyes permanently, he is typically seen with hazel eyes. This is due to a finely weaved illusion, a genjutsu with no name, but likely the rank of S as none can get around it. This ability is something he has honed to perfection, though there is little else in the way of illusion that he utilizes.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span><br/>Enigmatic, veiled in mystery and pleasant in his mannerisms, Zume is a rather cunning individual. While on the outside he appears a near perfect gentleman of high intellect and enigmatic interests, within he is darker, colder, and far more manipulative. Long has he toiled to perfect himself and in his own mind he has succeeded, literally. In this way Zume is entirely confident in himself in all things, even those that he has little talent for. He is unshakable in his own way and on many levels will resist the ploys of others, be they intentional or otherwise. Thus to others he appears a man entirely abhorrent of manipulation and deceit, of course that is only if you know him on an incredibly basic level, for in truth Zume is in fact quite deceitful to all around him. It is a marvel that no one, and that is said with absoluteness, has realized his trickery. For to others he is kind, reliable and honest. An intelligent man, yes, and definitely more than a little eccentric, but otherwise he is harmless unless provoked.<br/><br/>Of course, when provoked, Zume does not always appear so on first observation. Instead, he appears either more amused by proceedings or incredibly, horribly bored. This stems from his rather strange rage, which is not easily roused from its slumber in his soul. In fact, those who know Zume very well often say that despite having seen him angry, they always got the sense that he was still entirely in control the entire time. This is frighteningly true and brings with it many implications. First among these is that despite his emotional state, Zume remains entirely in control of his actions even if such does not appear to be the case. Second is the startling realization one gains when they come to know that not only is Zume in control at all times, but that he can rouse any desired mind state or emotion entirely on command. This lends to the fact that all who know Zume understand how great his self-control is, even if not to what extent.<br/><br/>When it comes to matters of friend, foe, and family Zume is very particular with how he deals with people. When it comes to family, they are both priceless, and expendable, or rather they are perfect tools for his machinations. When it comes to friends Zume appears incredibly loyal and helpful to near perfection. However, in the end it is almost surely a ruse for he lets so very few into his heart<br/>.<br/>While he is cold, it is difficult for one to truly understand just how much until they have seen him unrestrained against his enemy. Thus it can be seen that in battle Zume only enjoys himself when he needs not utilize the entirety of his deadly arsenal of skills. Otherwise he tends to find himself annoyed by the fact that he must consider his enemy an equal. This reveals another of Zume's vices, something that few know unless they delve deep into his true persona. In short, Zume is prideful and a measure arrogant as he believes that none truly surpasses his majesty. However, it is not in the skills of the body that he believes himself entirely superior, no, it is in the realms of the mind that he so places himself. In a sense, he is not entirely wrong. A fact that, should any discover his true nature en full, would frighten most, not that they would survive long to tell their tell...after all, the others didn't.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> TBA<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Theme:</span></span><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maqJCLO4dDg"" rel=""nofollow"">Empire Syndicate - Dark City</a></div></div><br/>=========================================<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Equipment Data"" type=""button"">Equipment Data [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Base Weapons &amp; Items:</span></span><br/>X shuriken.<br/>X kunai.<br/>X explosive tags.<br/>X smoke bombs.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Specialized Weapons &amp; Items:</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span><br/>Ōku no iroai ni musuko(多くの色合いへ息子 'Son to many shades')<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Drifting throughout, space and time dare not grace thy silver flesh. I implore, may I receive thy guidance, Ōku no iroai ni musuko.""</span> - Tatasuko, Zume.</span><br/><br/>A blade recovered from the central chamber of the Hahaoya no jōmyaku, it is plainly ancestral in its origins, and possesses a precarious balance between orderly control, and slovenly disordered chaos. The blade can be described as a physical, essentially inanimate construct of Mukōton. While it is technically composed of the Mukō, the blade has both the yin and yang attributes imperfectly in a state of constant combination and separation. From one moment to the next the blade almost constantly refreshes the bonds between the tangible and intangible realms. Yet there is more to this constant circulation, as between these currents of yin and yang, light and dark, male and female, good and evil, are pure expressions of Mukōton that the Tatasuko would find themselves jealous to look upon.<br/><br/>Composed of approximately 221 of these circulating patterns of yin and yang, merged by the void, the Ōku no iroai ni musuko's structural composition is incredibly complex despite its simple appearance. The majority of these circulations, the leading 200, move perpendicular to the blade's form and move around it constantly to form the refined tube that blades tend to be. The secondary 20 however move in alignment with the blade giving it its length, solidity, and cutting power in that sense. Lastly of course is the single pattern, which is often totally dormant at the very core of the blade running through its entire length from pommel to tip. This arrangement has made it so that unless an individual has mastered their yin and yang aspects, or conversely has mukoton, they cannot even wield the blade. An individual with mastery of the yin aspect, or simply genjutsu, can touch the blade on a mental and spiritual level but not on a physical one, they risk their body being devoured by the void of the blade. When one has mastered their yang, or taijutsu, they can hold the blade in a physical sense while its spiritual aspect will be totally lost on them; these individuals risk their mind being devoured by the blade.<br/><br/>This single length of typically inactive pattern is one of the blade's most important feature. While the other energetic movement patterns in the blade are circular, this center one is not and acts like a set of veins when activated. Upon activation of this central pattern it branches out and constantly sends tiny pulsing veins that weave through and around the other patterns at many times their speed. The veins that this creates allow the blade to exude and absorb chakra to some extent. The blade is typically only receptive to one to three types of chakra. In Zume's case these are mukōton, yin, and yang chakra. Though this blade is composed almost entirely out of chakra, absorption will not work as instead of actually touching the chakra it will make contact with the mukōton and thus will simply absorb nothingness from the void, which to essentially anyone is useless and simply takes up space without technically 'filling' anything. While in addition to this the blade's internal patterns can be partially externalized and changing the blade's shape can cause these patterns to shift respectively.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Externalization of movement patterns requires chakra to maintain. The chakra required is a constant amount. The more patterns, the more chakra. Externalizing the maximum amount of movement patterns requires chakra equivalent of a C rank technique per minute of use.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span><br/><img src=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/039/1/1/yuniba_saru_kimi_sealed_form_redraw_by_yoshua171-d4p356y.jpg""/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span><br/>Bougu(Defensive armament).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span><br/>Zume wears metal plates on his forearms, upper arms, the back of his neck, and to cover his shins. Additionally he has applied chakra infused armor over the area of his ankles to help protect the essential muscles there. The armor on his ankles is malleable but strong when something comes against it and thus has the resistance of iron but does not limit his movement. The rest of him is not really covered in armor though his normal clothing has an incredibly flexible layer of material sewed in-between two of it's layers allowing protection like that of leather armor. Other than this, Zume remains unprotected and due to this is not weighted down much, if at all, allowing his agile movement and speed to come into play without limit. All of these armaments are pitch black and have a strange depth as they have been deeply imbued with Zume's chakra.</div></div><br/>=========================================<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Combat Data"" type=""button"">Combat Data [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Special Traits</span></span><br/><br/>Mastery and complete understanding of chakra, chakra systems, and Jutsu theory.<br/>Knowledge of human psychology and physiology<br/>Total Self-mastery: Mind, body, and Spirit.<br/>Extremely skilled in ninjutsu.<br/>Astounding Intelligence.<br/>Master Swordsman.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Kekkei Genkai:</span></span><br/><img src=""http://www.davidicke.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/legacy_images/stories/May%202008/black_eyes.jpg""/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai:</span><br/>Kusa Chūō no sei( 腐败中央の精 'Degradation of the Central Essence')<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span><br/>Tatasuko.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">“In the beginning it is said all was Nothingness, but what is emptiness? Is it just a word, a concept in the mortal mind, or is it something else entirely. Only the Phoenix knows.”</span>--Shougaku Tatasuko.</span><br/><br/>The Tatasuko clan’s kekkei genkai is a doujutsu, one, which gradually awakens over the course of the inheritor’s life, spanning from their birth to roughly the age of 15. Its name is derived from the chakra to which these abyssal eyes are the herald. As an inheritor’s eyes manifest, their chakra system is gradually reformatted from its natural balance of yin and yang to the unnatural and otherworldly nature of Mukōton(Void release). As their eyes move from white, to gray, and finally to black wherein their eyes are but deep pits to look upon, their chakra changes entirely to match the voidal color of their eyes, thus completing their transformation. Any affinities they possessed prior will be changed by the massive alteration of their chakra’s nature.<br/><br/>It is at this point that the full capabilities of their doujutsu are revealed, turning their vision monochromatic and merging many of their senses as synesthesia would. In the next few years their eyes become orbs of infinite depth. While these orbs do not inherently allow those who possess them to visualize chakra, such can be achieved through their use. However, by default any inheritor of the Kusa Chūō no sei is capable of <span class=""bb-i"">feeling</span> chakra, able to detect what affinity it is, as well as its location and movement. As such chakra sensing, to a Tatasuko, is more an extension of their ability to touch or feel things, more than anything else.<br/><br/>Last among their eyes’ abilities is the connection between the orbs, the void, and the chakra, which comes from it. Any inheritor of the Tatasuko kekkei genkai is capable of sensing through void chakra, or the void itself if their mastery is at such an advanced level. To sense through the transcribed realm of the void is an incredible feat indeed and only the most masterful of their ilk are capable of such incredible achievements.<br/><br/>It should be noted that the Kusa Chūō no sei is inherited rather infrequently even within the clan.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Mukōton"" type=""button"">Mukōton [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Void Release, the direct opposite of onmyouton(yin-yang release) is a chakratic affinity with two primary traits and a score of interchangeable secondary properties. First and foremost mukōton chakra is exceptionally dense, and has the tendency to continuously become more so as long as its polarity remains neutral. The void’s other primary property is its degrading effect, as the substance will essentially eat away at both energy and matter that it comes into contact with depending on its own potency, the substance, and the amount of void present. These traits, and those, which will be, listed in the Tatasuko technique, Mukō no junka are the traits of impure void. Pure void chakra is something that, thus far, only one member of the Tatasuko clan has been able to harness, and that individual was the fabled Tatasuko from legend--the ancient enemy of the sage. Pure mukōton, unlike its impure counterpart, is untouched by reality’s laws and, having come from the Phoenix’s realm, is a pure catalyst of destruction, which acts as antimatter would. If pure void were ever to be manifested it would be capable of erasing any reality-based substance that it came into contact with, proportional to the amount of it utilized. Luckily, the act of manifesting it is essentially impossible and the techniques involved in such have been lost.</div></div><br/>=========================================<br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Techniques:</span></span> Possesses all academy jutsu.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Hipparu no mukō kara(<sub>引っ張るの向こうから</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'to draw from beyond'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Space-time Ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 3 yards(9 feet).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 4.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> With the execution of the 1st hand seal a greyish mist spreads from the user or any present void chakra.

While the true sensory technique, known as Genjitsu no shingai: Tsunzaku mukō ni shiryoku, accesses the world by first blocking out the direct senses and then weaving them back into reality via the void, this technique instead localizes their visual and otherwise senses in a specified area in which sensing becomes absolute depending on skill level. This technique works by expanding the user's yin-type mukōton invisibly into their surroundings and then utilizing it as a conduit for their senses, particularly their otherwise limited sight. This acts by giving the user continual high-speed snap shots/sensations of things moving or 'flowing' through the invisible Mukōton chakra. If the user closes their eyes this technique works in an entire 360 degrees, but becomes more difficult to understand.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Especially weak to wind affinity. Earth has no effect, lightning can temporarily 'blind' her senses in a particular area for an incredibly short duration of time.

However, this secondary weakness is partially gotten around by the use of multiple senses being perceived by the eyes rather than just that of sight.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Mukō kara shinri hitori(<sub>向こうから真理ひとり</sub> 'Truth begotten from void').<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei sensory ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A-S+.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Variable.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 6.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Using the principles of both Tsunzaku tentō fukumen and Chūō honshitsu o keikai, a true master of the Kusa Chūō no sei's sensory abilities can execute this technique. First by utilizing Hipparu to mukō kara, though utilizing the handseals of this technique instead, the user will dispell yin aspect void around their body in a 25-50 meter radius, the former for those with less than average chakra, and the latter the upper limit for those with excessive amounts. Once this is done the user's perception is weaved outwards from their body and throughout the system of surrounding chakra, which is under the effect of a constant pull as long as it remains within the user's distance threshold. This pull stops those with chakra absorbtion abilities from taking in the chakra as any attempt to do so will be met with equal resistance. This pull also stops wind affinity techniques, if an enemy detects the chakra, from dispersing the invisible mukōton chakra.<br/><br/>Once the user has weaved their perception throughout what amounts to a non-physical mist, they can detect reality and what goes on in their surroundings both through their body and through an objective lense not affected by their body's physical—and subjective, senses. Like Chūō honshitsu o keikai the user can choose what, or how many, aspects they are perceiving at any given time, but like Tsunzaku tentō fukumen they can do so over the entire area that their chakra is dispersed over.<br/><br/>For those whose mastery goes beyond the norm, this technique can take on one other trait, becoming able to spread out further than the user's upper limit. An individual can generally spread their sensory range out to double their alleged upper limit however, by doing so a delay of several seconds is instituted to stimuli taken in by this sensory technique.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Stay outside of the sensory technique's range or utilize fuinjutsu to absorb the chakra from the technique. The further the technique is spread from the user's <span class=""bb-i"">upper limit</span> the more delay there is in stimuli being transmitted to the user's body for processing. This delay, when the range is doubled is 5 seconds.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Michibiki haha no te no(<sub>導き母の手の</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Guidance of the mother's hand'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Passive Kekkei genkai Ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Stemming from the Kusa Chūō no sei's sensory ability and the Mukōton chakra of the clan member's chakra system, this ability allows them to guide their void chakra with extreme ease. It is considered both basic and advanced manipulation ability. While sealing techniques can seal void chakra, it should be noted that releasing the void chakra from said seal in any fashion will just make it return to the void due to its link with the physical realm -via the user- will have been cut.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Seals cut off the link needed and return controlled chakra to the void where it becomes inaccessible to the user. Space-time jutsu can also mess with this, the extent however varies rather greatly.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Mukō no junka(<sub>向こうの馴化</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Acclimation of void</span>').<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei genkai Ninjutsu/Supplementary.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> E-B.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This technique is something of and adaptation of Michibiki haha no te no and allows them not to simply guide the movement of their Mukōton chakra, but also to change its 'polarity' and purpose respectively. Essentially Mukōton chakra has a few different states, much like matter. It has solid, liquid, and gaseous states and it has three polarities: positive, negative, and neutral. The differences are as follows:<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Traits"" type=""button"">Traits [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">--Polarities--</span><br/>It should be noted that while different portions of voidal energies can have different polarities, and that any given area of void can have a multitude of polarities, that no one spot can exhibit the traits of two polarities simultaneously. Additionally, while polarities themselves have no true weaknesses, they can cause weaknesses to appear when coupled with the void's typical traits and the state that the void is in at the time.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Neutral:</span> Void in its neutral polarity becomes exceptionally dense as instead of its attractive or repellant properties pushing or pulling at other matter or energy, causing its own energies to move differently as a result, they push and pull at its own energy, causing it to expand, retract, and continually fold in on itself. As such, neutral void becomes more dense, and thus more heavy, with time, though it does not appear to actually create more of itself in the process likely due to its degradation factor. This means that anything, living or not, that is within this manner of void will experience an incredible pressure, as if underwater, which will increase gradually over time as long as the polarity is not altered. In addition to this, the neutral polarity of void and its 'folding' allow it to 'create' more space in a location it is inhabiting, and retain that space when it moves locations as long as it does not alter its polarity. Lastly it should be noted that the more voidal energy is at a neutral state, which it will be at if not influenced otherwise, the faster this pressure, and the space within it, increases.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Positive:</span> Like a magnet, just as its opposite, the positive polarity of void allows for matter and energy to be pulled towards it with an attractive force. This pull can be countered by an equal push away from it, allowing the individual to resist by using strength equal to or greater than the pull effecting them. However, it should be noted that, much like the previous polarity, the pull will grow with the amount of voidal energy is of this polarity meaning it will take a greater and greater force to escape it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Negative:</span> Opposite to the previous polarity, this charge allows the void to “push” matter and energy away from itself. This effect increases, as with the others, with the amount of void that is in this state. To resist this push the same effort must be given in a similar manner as with the Positive polarity.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">--States--</span><br/>Unlike the polarities of the void, the states can be mixed and matched as the user wants, allowing for a myriad of combinations. This means that gaseous and Liquid void can be merged into something containing the properties of both, but weaknesses all their own. Each state, including the various combinations, has its own weaknesses and faults, though these faults can be modified by the charge(polarity) of the void in question.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Solid:</span> Solid void is typically about as fragile as glass, or crystal(not including diamond), but nonetheless it absorbs a certain amount of force and can stop, or at least slow down, both matter and energy respectively. This fragility can however be amended by making it exceptionally dense, or integrating it with other states. <br/><br/>The general weaknesses of solidified void are include any attack strong enough to break glass or crystal as well as especially high temperatures. As such, solidified void is typically weakest to the elements earth and wind whereas lightning and fire have essentially no negative effect unless they exceed a certain temperature. Lastly, water is considered a neutral element to it, being more or less equal on both the weakness and strength side of things. It should be noted that these weaknesses/strengths do not include their weaknesses/strengths in relation to the polarity of the energy at the time.<br/><br/>In terms of the uses and general strengths of solidified void, well, they are as follows. Solid void is particularly useful for cutting attacks as while it is brittle when hit with a lot of force, it is fairly sturdy when apply cutting force(power) to other objects, making it a strange energy to begin with. The other reason it is so effective at severing things is the fact that solidified void is not all that dense as unlike normal matter and energy, voidal energy must become less dense to become tangible. In fact, the only reason the void can effect physical beings is because its density has already been considerably lowered through the process of being channeled through Arkaeis' body. It should be noted that while solidified void is the least dense of the states, it is not the lightest, such is the paradoxical nature of void.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Liquid:</span> In its liquid state, void is actually fairly dense, making it difficult for liquid void to float in the air without the buoyancy of gaseous void. In fact, if it ever appears as if liquid void is 'levitating' one should almost immediately assume that it’s being supported by gaseous. Beyond this it should be noted that liquid void, despite its lack of airborne buoyancy, can move very quickly across surfaces. Additionally while it cannot float very well without the assistance of other voidal states, liquid void is capable of remaining partially suspended as long as one part of it is touching a surface. Additionally, should liquid void be formed within an area where there is no gravity, it will have no longer be forced to tether to an object and will be capable of floating freely. This particular state of void is weakest to the earth affinities, though other affinities have lesser effects on it or will force it to change its state. It is however strong against both the fire and lightning affinity as the void is extremely conductive of both heat and electrical energy and is capable of handling fairly extreme temperatures especially in its liquid form. It should be noted that these weaknesses/strengths do not include their weaknesses/strengths in relation to the polarity of the energy at the time<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Gas:</span> Gaseous void is a strange form of void, primarily because it is certainly the most dense, but is simultaneously the freest and flimsiest of the states. While flimsy is indeed an apt term to describe it, it does not necessarily mean that this state is weak, for it certainly has its strengths. Wind and fire are highly effective against this form of void, but the other elements, particularly water and earth, are essentially useless against it, as it will simply part before them. Conversely gaseous void might pull an element through itself, as is the case for lightning as the gas retains the natural conductivity of voidal matter/energy. It should be noted that gaseous void, while extremely conductive of electricity, is oddly prone to combustion when exposed to fire, hence its weakness to it. It is thought that this may be due to the 'potential' that the void holds inherent in itself, which is ignited by the excited particles of something such as fire. Lastly it should be noted that gaseous state void moves the fastest of the three states, but is not much good at anything else except for being a sensory medium or catalyst. Beyond this gaseous void is useful only in combination with other states or polarities of the void. It should be noted that these weaknesses/strengths do not include their weaknesses/strengths in relation to the polarity of the energy at the time.<br/>---<br/><br/>Additionally there is yin and yang aspect void. Yang aspect void’s properties are described above, but when manifested purely in an energetic form with no state or polarity it gains a stronger degrading effect and an increased depth/potency. Yin aspect void is nonphysical and invisible to all senses ‘cept those of chakra. It can be detected by certain doujutsu such as the Rinnegan and Byakugan. Sharingan can detect it as well, but to a lesser extent. Yin aspect void is essentially ethereal in nature and merely allows the implementation of genjutsu, or other more mental properties into certain void techniques.</div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Each state is shown with its corresponding weaknesses. Additionally Onmyouton(yin-yang release) chakra is effective against Mukōton chakra.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Sakasa(<sub>逆さ</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">Reverse</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninkenjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B-A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By applying Mukōton chakra to a bladed weapon and reversing its flow direction from inwards to outwards, the user causes a unique effect. When the blade makes contact with any substance it can blast things away from it, or it can focus this repulsion effect on its edge allowing it to cut through almost anything.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Abilities specific to blocking, piercing attacks, and highly resistant materials can block this. However most will still eventually be cut through, it will simply take more time. Additionally 3 or so seconds of focus is needed to cause this effect as well as the user needing to maintain said effect. This can be countered in terms of affinity weakness, which would be onmyouton, wind, or lightning chakra.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Seijun no nentou karada(<sub>清純の念頭体</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">Purity of the Mind and Body</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu,<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Using the logic of Sakasa and the void's normal tendency to take other things within itself and send it into the void space, this technique was created. By applying two types of void chakra to a weapon the user can cause the outer layer to absorb the yang chakra needed to apply physical force onto something, and then disperse it with the inner layer.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This effect takes 2 seconds to actually work and requires 5-8 seconds of preparation. This can be countered in terms of affinity weakness, but it can only be completely countered with onmyouton chakra. This technique is best countered via pouring more force into any given blow and withdrawing before the 2-second mark.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Hahaoya no hōyō(<sub>母親の抱擁</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'A mother's embrace'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Nintaijutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 0-6.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Normally this technique is a C rank jutsu, though its output is certainly effective, due to the fact that the jutsu works mostly on the inside of the body and thus expends less chakra in the long run. When utilized at C or B rank the body's void chakra is utilized outright and it amplifies the user's movements--in general--to much higher levels. This amplification is however not on par with something like the Lightning Release armor. When the user wishes to use it at B rank it requires a 5-10 second charge time and 3 hand seals. Once active the improvement of the user's movements stems to their strength in some aspects, but does not improve flexibility which means they can still pull muscles and such despite being able to utilize them more effectively. When the user wishes to utilize this technique at A rank, they must perform 6 hand seals and externalize a small portion of their chakra to act as a cloak around their body. This state is barely a step below the lightning release armor and if the user does not have a specialized sensory ability they will be at an extreme disadvantage. This technique, at A rank, allows them to move in a steady flow of high speed movement, but not in sudden bursts. This is achieved by essentially using Sakasa on the aura that surrounds them, which thrusts them forwards at extreme speeds.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique does not amplify the user’s senses at all and thus their speed can be exploited. The void can be countered with onmyouton. At A rank the chakra consumption is higher due to the jutsu using a purer manifestation of void at that point.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Teido In-geru chichioya no (<sub>程度陰げる父親の</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Royal domain of the blind father'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact-20 yard(60 feet) radius<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Hold dragon.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By holding the dragon hand seal and then utilizing Hipparu no mukō kara, the user can create what amounts to a portable barrier technique. This takes around 5-10 seconds to fully form, and is dependent on how large the user wishes to it to be. This can be anywhere from skin tight, to 20 yards radius in size. This barrier uses the flow of void to constrict and slow the movements of those moving within, unless they have a way to ignore its influence. Conversely the flow of it can be inverted so as to expel things from the void or slow things down that attempt to enter. Once the void area is active the user can condense or expand it to their will and they are no longer required to utilize the dragon hand seal. However, this barrier is not always portable and it will only follow, or realign itself around the user if the tiger hand seal is employed.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Weakness elementally is onmyouton however; if a jutsu is considerably powerful (destructive A rank, or S rank) the void can shatter when it comes into contact with said attack. To activate this technique, the user must be stationary and thus defense is an essential during its activation. Lightning and Fire affinity are the best elemental counters to this technique as one will conduct throughout the barrier whereas the other may heat it, potentially causing it to shatter.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Shinshū-tekina chichioya no te(<sub>侵襲的な父親の手</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Hands of the invasive father'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Nintaijutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 5.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Performing 5 hand seals and then wreathing one’s hands and arms in Mukōton chakra, the user begins this technique. A shell of solidified Mukōton chakra forms and beneath it is liquid void. Surrounding the shell is loosely bonded gaseous void, which flows off from the user’s arms easily and weaves itself within the rest of the chakra. The polarity of the liquid void is neutral, causing no push or pull as it circulates beneath the shell. While this is all and well the essence of this technique is what happens when the user hits someone. When someone is struck by their fist, hand, palm, etc etc the solid void cracks and cuts the target regardless of resistance. The liquid void chakra will become unstable and be pushed away from the inside of the pseudo-gauntlet and into the target's chakra system. Due to the unnatural manifestation of Mukōton and the fact that only those of the Tatasuko clan can truly withstand/bare its effects, the individual's chakra system will be polluted. However, only a small amount of chakra is imbued with each strike, thus the user must hit either with severe strikes, or more than once. The chakra will eventually begin to devour the chakra of the infected target until the person runs out of chakra and only has enough to stay alive. If the chakra is not removed within 2-5 days the infected individual's life force will be extinguished.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The above technique takes approximately 5 seconds to form and stabilize, use before then will cause the gauntlets to disperse thus wasting chakra. Additionally he has to hit the person and the technique will remain active for a maximum of 5 minutes (at A rank). At B rank it remains active for 3 minutes and at C rank it remains active for a maximum of 2 minutes, though it typically lasts only 1.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Mukōi – Haha no kadoguchi(<sub>無効の胃 - 母の門口</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'The Void's Maw – Gateways of the Mother'</span>)<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei Space-time ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> E-A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton and Dōton (borrowed).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 1-3-12-24-36.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Through executing up to thirty-six handseals the user will first begin to utilize Hipparu no mukō kara. While the voidal mist forms around them, a small amount of dōton chakra (which has likely been extracted from another individual) and otherwise material from the Hahaoya no jōmyaku, will be dropped into the mukōton. As such it will be linked to sacred cave system of the Tatasuko clan and a literal gateway of void chakra will open before the inheritor. This gateway can be opened to almost any other location that the Hahaoya no jōmyaku run beneath, which is almost anywhere. The dōton chakra can be excluded if something is being transmitted between two Tatasuko inheritors utilizing the jutsu in different locations to travel from one to the other. The E rank version of this technique takes essentially no chakra and utilizes one handseal. The E rank version will allow the inheritor to not only open a physical entrance to the Hahaoya no jōmyaku, but will also notify them where the nearest ones are and how to find them. Additionally the E rank technique will help them find their way through the caverns properly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Currently, locations that have defensive seals or the like cannot be gated into. This technique can be utilized in combat, but due to the preparation time, and required resources, it is mostly truly only useful for travel. A less difficult version of this technique can be utilized to transport objects or one or two people rather than many. The D rank version transports objects and utilizes 3 hand seals; the C rank version can transport large objects and one individual, it utilizes 12 hand seals; the B rank version can transport up to 3 people and utilizes 24 hand seals; lastly the A rank version can transport incredibly large objects and up to 8 people.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Antei-ka no fuin(<sub>安定化印術</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Seal of stabilization'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuininjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By utilizing a seal the user can stabilize a voidal construct. This allows them to make useful long term void constructs. --Zume has inscribed on the back of both of his hands, he will stabilize the nature of a voidal construct so as to utilize it long term(omit on site).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Other seals can counter this effect, as can overloading the object properly.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Tamashī no yōki – Hankō-ko o chūshō-ka shita mono(<sub>魂の容器 – 反抗子を抽象化したもの</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Soulless vessel – Abstraction of the defiant child'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu/Clone technique.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S+<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Mukōton.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 16.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Likely the single most advanced technique in the entirety of any Tatasuko's arsenal, Tamashī no yōki is a truly forbidden technique, for it brings forth life, functionality, and creation where there should be none. The process utilized to create this incredibly specialized clone will not be fully explained due to its rather convoluted nature, but what can be easily noted is that the clone's body is more durable than the individual it is made to represent, allowing it to take more damage than the user is able. Additionally, when utilizing mukōton, the Tamashī no yōki will amplify the utilized jutsu somewhat with its own essence. While the Tamashī no yōki can utilize the same jutsu as its creator, or any Tatasuko it has the chakra of, it does not drain itself when using these jutsu, instead it directly drains the user or Tatasuko clansman whose chakra the technique was drawn from. Tamashī no yōki clones are heavier than the individual that created them and as such will be naturally slower, but as mentioned will be more robust. The resistance, reliability, and durability of a Tamashī no yōki clone is so great that it can be hit up to thirty or so times (maximum) before it will fully degrade into a mess of uncoded mukōton chakra.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Due to the fact that any technique, or manipulation, done by the Tamashī no yōki in question drains the user and not the clone's own store of chakra (unless otherwise programmed by the user), which is much smaller, it is not wise to make any more than two at any given time, and it is unwise to ever make more than four before allowing one's chakra to replenish. Tamashī no yōki clones are especially weak to Onmyouton chakra and will gradually degrade if they come into contact with it.</div></div></div>"

Skall is moderately slim, with a wiry layer of muscle covering his boney frame. He weighs around 130 lbs. (58.9 kg) and stands at 5’6” in height. He hast jet black hair that flows freely and light brown eyes. When not being inconspicuous he wears his coyote mask and headdress, with a pair of reddish-brown hide leggins, various pouches, and goes barefoot. Each arm is adorned with several strips of leather wrapped around his forearms all the way down to the wrist, a white and black feather hanging from the left stripl.
 However, since he is almost always working, he disguises himself in whatever he can find. Whether it’s the rags of a drunken beggar or the armor of a samurai; His appearance changes drastically and frequently. He is not foreign to using face paint or makeups to change his skin tone either. There are numerous descriptions that he is known for, though very few get it correct. He has essentially mastered the art of non-genjutsu disguise.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Skall was found aimlessly wandering the desert by Uemura Monzaemon, barking and growling at anyone who came near him. He was, for all intents and purposes, feral. The only thing that lay in the path behind him were corpses of bandits rogue shinobi who had tried to rob or harm the youth. When the mad boy attacked him, a battle between Skall and Uemura’s ensued. Aside from his agility and ferocious nature, one trait led Uemura to spare the feral boy. When cornered, Skall performed a strange jutsu and released a cloud of red gas from his skin that burned his lungs and eyes but did not kill him. Unaware of Uemura’s true power, this only resulted in causing the boy to go into seizures and pass out.

It became clear that the cause for the child’s madness was his own strange power and his inability to attack someone with it without harming himself. Somehow he had managed to survive poisoning himself time and time again. 
Uemura took the child in and began to raise him. His throat and lungs were permanently damaged, resulting in a gravelly and almost unearthly voice when the child spoke. Regardless of this, Skall was educated, trained and raised as a Monzaemon and felt a deep love for his surrogate father, willing to do anything for him. He took up the use of chakra threads but never showed any real interest in puppets, preferring to use them as tools instead. Extensive training led him to control and safely use his gift so that he no longer poisoned himself with it.

Skall has been at the beck and call of Uemura (and to a lesser extent his brother) ever since, slaying those who stood in his way and performing any task deemed too violent or vile by anyone else. The only thing Skall remembers about before his time in the desert was that he had a family who dressed just like him, and a memory of his mother crying in pain.
  
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Skall’s psyche is fractured and extremely fragile. He often shifts between calm, melancholy, and enraged. His mood swings are usually caused by bad memories or failing at a task set by his surrogate father. With that said, there is a sort of curiosity and an eerie sense of innocence when he’s not foaming at the mouth with blood.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> Hypodermic Javelins  

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span>Hollow metal javelins that are designed to penetrate flesh and deliver a lethal liquid payload into the body of the enemy. Skall has three variants: Poisonous, incendiary (fiery explosive), and regular. The regular javelins come in two sizes: Standard and compact. Standards are about 2.5 feet in length, while the compact size is only about 8 inches in length. Osira uses these javelins in conjunction with his chakra threads to hurl them great distances using the tension in his threads like an atlatl. They can also be used for close range but are only good for blocking and stabbing since they have no edge.

The javelins have two pressure-sensitive triggers on either side that are depressed as the javelin enters the target. This triggers the spring-loaded mechanism inside and either a) releases the poison within or b) combines two volatile liquids that cause a small, fiery burst capable of igniting enemies.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique</span>:  Lightning Release: Reluctant Coil
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: B 
<span class=""bb-b"">Range</span>:  Nature Type: Lightning 
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals</span>: Two. Tori, Mi (plus the time it takes to form a chakra thread)
<span class=""bb-b"">Description</span>:   Skall creates a chakra thread attached to something small like a kunai, shuriken, or compact javelin and runs a conducts a current through the length of the thread, wielding it like a whip. The item it is attached is meant to act like a weight rather than a weapon, as a chakra thread almost entirely formed of lightning is very difficult to control. This technique can also be used by wrapping the chakra thread around something or someone and then quickly converting the thread back and forth. This is Skall’s favored means of collecting information and a brutal form of torture.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness</span>: The thread can be broken like any other and outright dissipates if it touches something grounded or resistant to electricity. Aside from that, the name itself implies how difficult it is to make the “whip” do what you want it to. Naturally this ability drains chakra at a steady pace while being used.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique</span>:  Sacred Art: Ozone Release (Fire+Lightning)
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: S
<span class=""bb-b"">Range</span>:  Medium to long (moving very slowly) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals</span>: Six.  I, Uma, Ushi, Uma, Tori, Tatsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Description</span>:   By concentrating and essentially superheating lightning chakra and then kneading fire chakra within his body, Skall can release the hidden technique that has caused those underestimating him to fall time and time again. After performing the required handseals, Skall inhales deeply and holds his breath before a cloud of pure ozone slowly erupts from his pores and rises, forming into a barely-visible, faint-red bubble in front of him. Once he releases his breath, the bubble moves forward at a steady pace (roughly a meter per second but faster if the wind carries it). If the bubble hits its target, it will erupt into a cloud of ozone gas. If inhaled, ozone is capable of causing great pain when breathing and inflaming the airways and lungs. This lack of oxygen can cause fainting, temporary paralysis and even death if inhaled in great enough quantities. The burning sensation within the throat and windpipe are enough to bring someone to their knees. If there is no wind and Skall does not push the bubble forward with his breath, the bubble can remain for several minutes before dissipating, acting as a trap. Since the gas is not a poison, there is no remedy to cure it. It can only be prevented by holding one’s breath or filtering the air.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness</span>: This technique is not only extremely slow to initiate, but also moves at a very slow and steady pace once used. Between the time it takes to weave handseals, focus and knead chakra, and release and form the bubble, an enemy could be long gone.
On top of that, it is very susceptible to wind and can be blown away by both wind jutsu and natural wind conditions. If punctured, the bubble erupts into a cloud regardless of where it is. Skall is not immune to this technique. Nobody that breathes oxygen is, though his mask would prevent immediate inhalation and give a half second or so to react. The unpredictable nature of a natural gas makes it difficult to incorporate this into any techniques other than this most basic one.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Position:</span></span> Kabuki Branch Head/Spokesman.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Clan:</span></span> Monzaemon.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Rank:</span></span> A Rank shinobi.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Earth, Lightning and Yang.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Having grown up in the clan alongside his elder brother, Uemura, Kawatake was not born with even a fraction of the talent that he is recognized for today. In fact, for the majority of his childhood he was considered weak and without talent, so as a form of rebellion Kawatake decided to learn the Kabuki arts rather than the Bunraku that his mother, father, and brother practiced. Still he only held minute skills even there, but it was better than nothing for while he had not gained much from his parents' teachings he had learned dedication.

It was thus through his dedication that he came to, largely behind closed doors, master his skills. When he saw his uncle's idealistic nature he looked up to him, but the man had crossed a line. The Monzaemon did not consort with those outside the Land of Wind, barely dealing with those within it outside of their circle, and as such the man needed to die.

When Uemura approached him with a proposition to <span class=""bb-i"">deal</span> with their wayward uncle and his supporters, he immediately complied, agreeing wholeheartedly that something had to be done. As such, the two prepared in secret, learning one another's techniques for the sake of familiarity.

Finally it came time for the operation and, having gathered several others, Kawatake set out to eliminate any and all loyalists, with great success. When he arrived back and saw Uemura still fighting he was the only one there not confused. Afterall, his brother had taken many hits that ought to have killed a man, yet hadn't.

Kawatake simply watched and waited with a smile on his face for his brother to emerge victorious. Eventually he did somehow surviving it all against all odds and making his three proclamations to the clan. This was the day that they became the two clan leaders, one to rule and the other to negotiate and keep the peace in the masses. He can hardly believe it was only 8 years ago, but nonetheless it is behind them and he expects the clan to make great leaps and bounds as it is once more in a position to expand. It's going to be an interesting life from here on out.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Kawatake is a man of efficiency and community. He understands the need for trust and loyalty and so he projects such values, even if only sometimes. He prefers to keep any confrontations quick, rather than drawn out, be they violent or simple social disputes. He is a leader at heart, a thinker, a man of understanding, but not one to pardon simply because he sees the logic behind their ways. In Kawatake's eyes what is best, is what serves the group, and even if one day this should require he step down from his place, he would gladly do so.

While not considered overly chatty, Kawatake is outspoken, finding it far easier to simply state his opinion rather than remain silent so as to uselessly remain unheard. He has a way of charming people to his side, inspiring them to rise against opposition and conquer obstacles. While not charming, he can be considered earnest, though not quite to a fault. In stark contrast to this he is a cunning man, capable of using deceit, or at least clever word play or illusion to fool those he wishes to into doing what he wants. In this way he may appear manipulative, but his actions are always with only the best intentions, 'cept in combat when he clearly wishes to swiftly end the life of aggressors.

While he could be considered brutal in his efficiency in the field, the man has only been called vicious by his enemies and to him this means little. After all, Kawatake believes that to truly know someone you must not simply meet them on the battlefield and cross blades, but also converse and come to truly understand them and how they think. He thinks it an art, and an intuitive skill, to understand a man, or woman, quickly. It is in this way that he may tear down the walls of opposition and hatred, so as to erect the bridge from disparity to the new land, wherein a bright future lies, metaphorically of course. This perhaps reveals one of the strangest things about the speaker, for he is both pragmatist and idealist wrapped into one package. A bizarre combination indeed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Idō chijō no keijō(<span class=""bb-i"">移動地上の形状</span> 'Shifting Earthly form').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu/Shape-manipulation.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 19 meters(62 feet).
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Earth.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Preforming the three hand seals while quickly visualizing the results of this technique, the user can shift the appearance/form of the earth within a 20 yard hemisphere. This technique is strange in the way that it works as it can only apply 1 shift in form, but within the entire area if the user is able enough, at a time and thus makes it rather limited in nature as at least 5-10 seconds must pass before one can use it again. This technique works by sending off a 'blueprint' using the user's chakra, this 'blueprint' is in the form of an invisible pulse of chakra which thus effects the environment shifting it to the user's will with great speed and effectiveness, though this is variable depending on the skill of the user.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Depending on the complexity or amount of earth being changed the amount of chakra taken increases or decreases.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Sentō no jutsu(<span class=""bb-i"">銭湯の術</span> 'Spire technique').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-C.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Anywhere as long as his chakra is present.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Earth.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 1, or 1 held.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By sending some of his chakra into the ground he can then create spikes from the earth. These spires range in size from that of a needle to the height of 6-8 feet as their maximum. If he wishes to create more than one spire at a time he holds the hand seal so as to create up to 12 spires in rapid succession. Following this he cannot create more spires for 5 seconds.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The spires can only come from places where his chakra is located. Additionally, if he cannot see the spot where his chakra is going to create one, the accuracy decreases somewhat.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Doton: Hokyō(<span class=""bb-i"">土遁：補強</span> 'Earth Release: Reinforcement').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Supplementary Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Earth.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 5.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Making contact with an object, the user can then imbue it with a set amount of earth chakra. As they preform the hand seals the jutsu activates, forcing the earth chakra to move outwards and interconnect making the object(s) more sturdy. With complete mastery the user can easily utilize this on not only small objects and brittle ones, but also to sharpen the object(s) as well by refining the edges and the like. Once active it stays active and takes no more chakra. Once the chakra is present the technique can be reactivated with only the ram hand seal, but it will be half as effective as the first activation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Purely supplementary. If deactivated the chakra within the object will half disperse and half remain therein.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Itoori: Tenteki(<span class=""bb-i"">糸織り：点滴</span> 'Thread Weaving: Infusion').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Earth and Yang.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 6.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Through the masterful utilization of chakra threads this technique is made possible. First utilizing the initial handseals, after which point chakra threads must be manifested, the user will make contact with objects via their threads and infuse chakra into said objects. This chakra, as long as it is connected to the user directly or indirectly, can be transformed into jutsu via additional handseals. If this technique is used on another individual it can either be used to impart them with chakra restoring their stamina or to paralyze a localized area.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> If contact is lost, the infused chakra will fade slowly over time depending on how much chakra is within the object or material. Activation of infused chakra requires handseals and, at the very least, indirect contact.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Migotona hairetsu(<span class=""bb-i"">見事な配列</span> 'Masterful Arrangement').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Shape-manipulation ninjutsu/kinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A (in his case, Yang).
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> While requiring very few handseals, this technique is of extreme difficulty and is only possible due to Kawatake's mastery of his tenketsu points in addition to base shape-manipulation and the Chakra thread technique. Upon activation the user gains the ability to specifically direct the flow of their chakra out of particular chakra points(tenketsu). While most shinobi are incapable of controlling chakra not emitted from the hands, feet, or mouth, Kawatake has gained this ability by moulding techniques within his body prior to emitting them. As such, he is capable of launching jutsu essentially from any chakra point on his body as long as said point is not blocked. Kawatake, in part, has cheated as he has amplified his body's control over his tenketsu via the yang affinity's amplification capabilities.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> If his tenketsu are blocked or his chakra is sealed he cannot utilize this technique. Additionally, heavy physical damage in areas can prevent him from emitting chakra there. It is particularly dangerous to mold elemental jutsu prior to them exiting the body due to the difficulty in restraining the elemental effects and activating them at precisely the right moment. The last weakness is noted in that he can damage himself if he releases the wrong jutsu from the wrong place making this a potentially hazardous technique if misused.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Shinkei no ito(<span class=""bb-i"">神経の糸</span> 'Neural threads').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 15 meters.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning and Yang.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 8.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> To execute this technique the user first manifests mundane chakra threads and pours yang chakra into them, preforming the necessary handseals as such is done. Upon the fourth handseal's preparation lightning chakra is poured into the threads. As the lightning chakra passes through the threads the yang chakra creates temporary conductive pathways from the user's nervous system to the threads in the localized area of the technique. The lightning chakra is thus linked in part to the user's nervous system and while sensations other than simple contact are not transferred the user gains the ability to manipulate the threads as if they were a part of their own body. This allows increased versatility and maneuverability of the chakra threads in addition to amplified responses.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique can be incorrectly executed and if it is the threads will feel pain and can overload the nervous system causing the user to pass out. Additionally if the lightning chakra is not handled delicately it can electrocute the user. A first time learned of this technique will have to learn how to manipulate the threads anew as while doing so is somewhat intuitive they have no <span class=""bb-i"">muscle memory</span> for the action and thus will have trouble doing so. As such manipulating the threads so as to execute precise movements in high-speed or close combat can be difficult even for a master. The threads gain an affinity weakness to water, tending to weaken if they come into contact with it. The flow of lightning chakra can be increased or decreased, but the higher it is the more likely it is to damage the user. In its base state the threads will not shock or stun a target.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Ito ten'i(<span class=""bb-i"">糸転移</span> 'Thread transference').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Supplementary shape-manipulation ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 2.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A dual purpose technique, Ito ten'i allows the user to transfer chakra through threads from one thread to another in addition to redistributing the chakra within a given thread or altering its solidity. This technique could be considered the general shape-manipulation technique for chakra threads. The secondary application of this technique allows the user to spawn new threads from already established ones though manipulation of them will be somewhat limited as they will move in roughly the same trajectories though several inches apart. A master can utilize this technique to manipulate far more than a mere 10 threads, even separating the threads by feet but synchronizing their movements chakratically so as to appear to control many more threads than they are in truth.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> While allowing for use of far more than 10 threads the technique can decrease the accuracy of the utilized threads in addition to the structural integrity of the threads themselves making them more easily absorbed, disrupted, or destroyed.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span>

Yoshiro is an Uchiha through and through, and he sees there as being no better clan to belong to; he views his brethren and himself as the epitome of what a shinobi can be. He takes great pride in his heritage as well, proud to be able to trace his lineage clean through the Uchihas while claiming he has as pure blood as it comes. Being in a well-endowed position as he finds himself with his sister at the helm of their organization he enjoys his prominence, though is hardly a fan of the attention it brings him. He dislikes being in the public eye and is more inclined to leave that to his sibling, preferring operating in the shadows as a shinobi should. Being made to attend formal events and meetings is the most off-putting thing he can possibly imagine. 

Battle is both a blessing and a curse to Yoshiro. The chance to show what an Uchiha can do thrills him, and he enjoys the rush of being in combat. Conversely, while killing a strong foe or a truly despicable person comes easily he cannot stomach killing someone who is helpless against him. He sees the slaying of anyone incapable of defending themselves as a disgusting act and will leave an opponent on the field of battle if they aren't up to his standards. His pride as an Uchiha near forbids him from taking on anyone below him, and he'll readily send one of his fellow clansmen after an individual rather than do so himself. In the heat of battle he is almost on a high, often heard laughing and mocking his opponent during a fight. The pride that he possesses in his heritage can lead to arrogance, and in some cases said arrogance leads to him becoming reckless. It often falls to those around him to calm him down, otherwise he can become careless in a battle.

His status as a member of the head family begets as much pride as does being an Uchiha, and brings out an almost haughty attitude in Yoshiro. While he does not tout his prominence over others he does make his position known, carrying himself everywhere with a sense of dignity as though he truly were the head of the clan and not his sister. In lieu of this he does not show any disdain or disregard for his sibling's position, actually openly supporting her on multiple occasions. He takes being slighted rather seriously and is known to demand prompt apology from those who wrong him, or force them to apologize. Yoshiro considers it an immense insult when anyone speaks ill of his sister, even more so than himself, and has been known to get into fights with peers who questioned her position. In terms of responsibilities for the head family Yoshiro is almost lazy, disregarding many duties and leaving them to others. He prefers to wander about than sit down and discuss clan matters, getting him quite a bit of lectures from his elders. 

Though arrogant and prideful Yoshiro is not wholly without compassion. Those who fight alongside him he treats as though they were his own sibling, and often goes out of his way to check on injured shinobi. Feeling the need to maintain his demeanor as a stout member of the head family he does not openly acknowledge he does such a thing, often having to sneak into medical wards on off hours to visit. He has a tendency to leave gifts for injured shinobi as well, and has been known to leave gifts to widows and their families too. His dislike of fighting a lesser opponent extends to activity in his own clan; Yoshiro steps in whenever someone tries to wrong another below them purely over their status. A bit hypocritical perhaps considering he feels slighted when his authority is questioned, but no one ever said he was perfect. 

Yoshiro does have one weakness; women. He is most certainly attracted to them without a doubt, but is prudish almost to a comical point. In a manner suited for a man far older than himself he is overly polite and chivalrous with women, thinking that the only way to treat a member of the opposite sex. On a few occasions where he and his friends had stolen glances at girls he could be seen fleeing the seen with a red face, refusing to join in on such a lecherous activity. His behavior may come across as borderline sexist to some, as he treats many females he does not know as though they are helpless. In the face of his polite behavior he appears to be helpless when it comes to dating, a fact which makes him crestfallen at the mere mention of it. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span>

Born into the head family of the Uchiha Clan, and promptly began to train under mentors as soon as he was able. Yoshiro showed a prowess for two affinities at an early age, both lightning and fire. Given his cushy upbringing and having every luxury afforded to him it was easy for the young boy to practice his ninjutsu at a very young age. Though his days were filled with instruction more often than not Yoshiro always found time to sneak off from his lessons, playing with other children in his clan at every opportunity. Whether due to his status in the clan or for him as a person there were quite a few boys and girls who would spend time with Yoshiro, prompting him to sneak off as often as he could. Inevitably his mother and father found out about his excursions and were not at all pleased.

Barring Yoshiro from spending time with his peers did not alleviate his avoidance of his studies; being unable to see his friends actually made his lessons even worse. Realizing this fairly quickly his parents allowed Yoshiro to see his peers once more, albeit under set times throughout the day. As a member of the head family he was expected to be strong, known a plethora of different jutsu and be versed in the way in which politics worked between clans. Hands on training fascinated him and he reveled in being taught new jutsu, yet the more intellectual pursuits bored him to the point of tears. His prowess, as discerned from early on was not as a speaker or mediator but rather as a combatant, and as such he was given even further leniency in his instruction. 

Yoshiro further cemented his ability in combat on a skirmish with a small neighboring clan, performing quite well in the ensuing battle. Few in number but strong, the Gaharo clan encroached on Uchiha land one too many times and refused to yield when told to. The resulting disagreement led to a group of Uchiha shinobi being dispatched to the clan, instigating a brief yet bloody battle. During the course of the battle Yoshiro personally felled 3 enemy ninja, one Jōnin even, albeit with the help of a senior combatant. Victory for the Uchiha was near guaranteed, and the Gaharo clan may well have been wiped out were it not for Yoshiro's intervention. As soon as the last enemy shinobi was beaten he demanded they fall back, much to the chagrin of his clansmen; his standing in the clan forced their hand and they left the clan in shambles, but alive. 

Upon returning home the current head of the family, Yoshiro's father, learned of his son's decision. Toyotomi approved of his son's choice, which came as little surprise to many of their clan. The current head of the Uchiha clan held far more influence than Yoshiro ever could hope to, and even the men who had argued with his decision agreed with Toyo in the end. He should be happy to have his ideals supported by his father, and yet Shiro found himself becoming almost resentful of the man. How easily others folded to his word, and how quick they had been to disregard his decision back then. The fact that his father could do what he was unable to led to a slight disdain of the man for a short time.

Matters were not helped any when a new head of the clan was to be named, and Yoshiro was certain he would be dubbed the new lead. In a turn perhaps unexpected only by him however his sister was named the successor, and in essence he was left in the dust. The faint bitterness he had felt towards his father prior to this grew, and he adopted a slight disdain of his sister as well. Loyal to the clan above all else however he would follow their requests unwaveringly. The passage of time heals all wounds, and with the passing of a few months Yoshiro's bitterness eventually waned. As of current he holds slight contempt for being looked over, though he now supports the decision openly and does not feel as wronged as before.

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Short
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Yoshiro connects wire strings to kunai and subsequently throws them at his opponent. By channeling his Lightning Release Chakra through the wire and kunai he is able to direct its trajectory, attempting to wrap the weapon around his opponent. If successful the voltage is increased, usually used as a means to stop a fleeing target or to halt an attacker in their steps.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> None.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Diabolos
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Genjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Mid-range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Yin Release
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> None
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Trapping his opponent in a dark realm, Yoshiro forces them to confront an otherworldly abomination known as Diabolos. Nigh invincible and having the visage of a grisly demonic beast, should the victim be killed in this Genjutsu it simply begins all over again, as a never ending cycle of battles. Those who were trapped inside of this Genjutsu have reported feeling as though the creature can sap away their very chakra. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Chakra intensive, even for someone with good chakra control. While it requires no handsigns it is a slow to prepare Genjutsu, and those who know what is coming can easily dispel it. 


<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Wall of Flames
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu - Offensive
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Mid-range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Fire
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Tiger -&gt; Ox -&gt; Hare -&gt; Dragon -&gt; Ram
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Gathering up Fire Release Chakra, Yoshiro inhales and spits forth two fireballs, often ahead of or behind an opponent. Once the fireballs have hit the ground the flames grow larger, spreading across the gap between them in the process and upon meeting shoot up into a proverbial wall of flames. The height of the wall varies based on the amount of chakra expended, as does the heat.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The length of the wall is hardly infinite, and can be circumvented if the individual moves far enough to either side. Can be doused with even just a C-rank Water jutsu, albeit a continuous stream is needed as the flames will resurge.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Elemental Charge
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kenjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Fire or Lightning
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> None.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Yoshiro imbues his Reikon blade with either Fire or Lightning Release Chakra, giving his blade a certain elemental affinity. He can change the affinity at will, though he must first remove the chakra from the blade completely before changing it. Fire Release sees the blade glow white hot, as though just out of the forge, where as Lightning Release makes the blade spark occasionally. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> None.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Lightning Strike
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kenjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Medium-Long range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Ram -&gt; Bird -&gt; Dragon -&gt; Boar
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> As with the Elemental Charge Kenjutsu, Lightning Release Chakra is stored inside of Reikon. Unlike Elemental Charge, the chakra is generally discharged in one single strike, able to cross moderate distances to reach its opponent. The attack is fast, and can cause a heavy amount of damage upon impact. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Reikon must be either sheathed or set aside for this as Yoshiro needs both hands to perform the jutsu. Additionally, if he was previously using Elemental Charge then he needs to release that before using Lightning Strike, giving plenty of forewarning to the opponent of the impending attack. Should his opponent have any large metallic weapon or be near anything that can attract lightning it can be used to deter the attack. Other swords work excellent against this, especially if put in the ground to dissipate the high voltage.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> 
Nara Shikaro was the head of the Nara clan and was known for his excellent strategies and amazing abilities in battle. Shikaro had a deep rivalry with his brother, Shikayo, and they both catered to their father’s every whim in order to become clan head; in the end, Shikaro won. Kobayashi Sora was the daughter of a simple farmer and met Shikaro when he was found injured. They fell in love as Sora was tending to his wounds and married several months later. Around that same time, Shikayo’s wife had become pregnant. A month after Shikayo’s son, Shikashi, was born, Sora had given the news that she was pregnant. On May 27th, Shikako was born in the Nara Compound to Shikaro and Sora. Unfortunately, Sora died during the child birth due to severe bleeding and left Shikako motherless. 

Growing up, Shikashi and Shikako were continuously pitted against each other due to their fathers’ rivalry. Shikaro and Shikayo attempted to raise their children to be the best of the clan’s kids, prodigies. Despite their dislike, however, Shikashi and Shikako were close and could be considered best friends. It became clear that Shikako had a penchant for the medicine that the Nara clan made when she was five. Shikayo, angry at Shikako’s success, began to increase Shikashi’s lessons and even taught him advanced jutsu before his time. Because of his father’s harshness, Shikashi developed jealousy of Shikako and their friendship was broken. Around the time that the children were supposed to learn the shinobi arts more extensively, it was discovered that Shikako lacked severely in chakra control and could only perform the weakest form of Nara’s renowned shadow techniques. Shikako then began to envy Shikashi who was extraordinary in chakra control and strategies. With Shikashi’s promise, many of the clan thought that Shikashi should become clan head instead of Shikako. The moment that Shikako heard of this from her father was the moment that marked Shikashi’s and Shikako’s inherited rivalry.

Shikako eventually learned the ways of taijutsu in place of the traditional ninjutus of her clan and began training with her emeici. Using her excellence in medicine and herbs, Shikako learned the ways of poison and now can paralyze an opponent, not with her shadow techniques, but with bloodroot extract. Shikashi continued to outshine her and Shikako continuously attempts to outdo him, but her efforts are futile. Many times they have had to train together due to their fathers wanting to test their abilities and each time Shikashi beats Shikako. One day, Shikashi and Shikako are on a mission together, fighting an enemy clan over information – though it was not that important which is why the duo was sent on it – and because of Shikako’s jealousy, she tried to take down the enemy by herself and, as a result, had her eye gouged out. Now Shikako struggles with her damaged depth perception while trying to retain her position as the next clan head.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span>
 Shikako is a great specimen in regards to Nara intelligence. The brunette is known for her prowess in medicine, environmental knowledge, and survival skills. Her genius even extends to strategies, though she is not as well-versed in that art as her cousin Shikashi. Intelligence is not the only thing Shikako had inherited from her Nara forbearers, she also inherited their laziness and Shikako can often be found sleeping in her bed than training. Her wit is sharp and quick, and Shikako deals sarcasm as if a sword. She has a difficult time expressing her feelings, positively or not, and often conveys them through her sarcasm. The Nara girl is extremely blunt and will almost always tell people what she thinks if they were to ask – the only exception is if it will endanger her mission in which she keeps her mouth closed. Shikako could be described as apathetic; she generally does not notice others’ feelings and might accidentally disregard them in the process. Envy is deep-rooted at her being because of her inferior abilities in chakra control and ninjutsu or genjutsu. Over all else, Shikako values intelligence, honesty, and, the most important, silence. She is a firm believer in silence is gold and prefers the awkward pauses in conversation over the actual talking fraction.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Water Release &amp; Fire Release

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Slender and tense, he has little aesthetic muscle definition, but is toned and compact in reality. His tan skin is decorated with small scars that he obtained through combat. He stands at a height of 5'11” and has a slender, almost whip-like build. He has a nasty scar that trails around his back and onto his chest. In his right ear is a onyx magatama earring. A black cloak hides his clothes but underneath is a loose black Gi. His waist is covered with a dark purple sash that wraps around his right thigh and is tied in a knot on the left side, leaving long tails to linger inches from his thigh. Dark trousers fall onto ankle-high sandals. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> The child of wandering Uchihas, Hato was brought up watching and experiencing the fear and hatred that war savagely drug behind it. By the time he was eight, he was actively helping his mother and father defend entire villages from the conflicts that surrounded them. It was also at this age that he watched his father die at the hands of an opposing clans. Enraged, he awakened his Sharingan but was held back by his mother from rushing headlong into battle. After yelling at her without reserve, his mother told him that was sure to die. That he wasn't strong enough to go up against the man. 

Before long another man took his father's place and he was gifted with a younger brother and a Bukijutsu mentor. The new male soon found himself overwhelmed by his family's line of work. A fourteen year old Hato and his family was captured by a warring clan. They mistook the small village for the opposing clan's hideout. They raped, killed, and razed the land. Upon being captured, Hato watched one by one as villagers were murdered. When it came turn for his step father, he watched the man hold his head high and in his final moment attempt to reason with his killers. His infantile brother was soon to be killed but his mother unleashed a terrible power that he knew little of and slaughtered them all. She later mentioned it to be the Mangekyo and would eventually loose her vision after 2 years of using it to defend others.

At the age of sixteen, Hato buried his mother's remains among a grateful village who promised to always remember her. He defended his two year old brother with his life, carrying him along with him, and watching out for the youth with a fatherly eye. After traveling for three months they found themselves in Water Country. Its here that Hato experienced his final lost. While traveling in a boat, both tired and hungry, he was attack by water faring ninjas. They shattered his boat and kept him occupied while his little brother unconsciously drifted to the bottom. When he finally managed to free himself of them for a moment, he watched as one of them impaled the youth through the back. 

Ending them was but a matter of anger after that. When he emerged from his downright depression three months later, his heart had been engraved with his mother, father, mentor, and younger brother's deaths. He had wanted nothing more then to end the war, for it had taken everything he loved. By the age of eighteen he had met his ancestral clan but after seeing how bent on war they were, he struggled to dive back into his heritage.

His strength became so renowned that he was given the moniker “white wing” and respectively “the noble one”. His name grew thanks to the support from small villages, along with connections that Hato himself forged with growing powers and secretive groups.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Devoted not to his clan nor to his country but to the well being of humanity, Hato is a proclaimed advocate for peace. His mind usually floats over the clouds. Being a daydreamer at heart, he often finds small things to occupy his time, things as simple as insects crawling on a leaf. His daydreaming often leads to him being late, which in turn leads to him being viewed as lazy. Which to a certain angle, he is. However, his ambitions and goals are far higher on his list than his sleep. 

He's kindhearted and hesitant, or more so cautious, which keeps him at odds with the reckless and headstrong types. While thinking usually isn't his strong points, he appreciates the opportunity to do so. He has the bad habit of saying “aye” to everything and rubbing the nape of his neck is how he conveys annoyance. He tends to be sensitive to the plight of others, so he often finds himself being empathetic to a way of seeing things.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> Shinkyo (weapon)

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Shinkyo is a stone-black hilt, guard-less nodachi with a serrated edge and porcelain white blade. It has the ability to transform a small amount of lightning release chakra into pure chakra for Hato to use himself. Whether to fuel his own jutsu or to store, is up to him. He only needs to have a grip on its hilt to absorb said chakra. It is not attached to him but it has grown use to him. The blade has a capacity of what it can hold, usually taking 8-10 D rank jutsus, 5-6 C rank jutsus, 3 B ranks, 2 A ranks, and 1 S rank jutsus. These attacks all equal up to one S rank container of pure chakra.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By looking someone in the eyes the user creates a space of vast white, where angelic feathers fall around them.

Inside of the genjutsu is a strong barrier that keeps anyone from cast jutsus, effectively halting combat. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This type of genjutsu is rather easy to dispel. Once one is hellbent on continuing a confrontation and refuses to come to a compromise, the genjutsu will release itself and its caster from the realm.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Age:</span></span> 26
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Sexuality:</span></span> Bisexual

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Birthplace:</span></span> The Village of Korrin 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Organization:</span></span> None.
 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Main of wind, secondary of fire.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Yue is a small man, standing at about five and a half feet tall. He has a thin build, you won't find any fat on the guy, but you won't find much muscle either, thus he only weighs about 120lbs, give or take. He has a few scars about his person, the most prominent being a long jagged one across his back.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Yue was born in the peaceful village of Korrin. A small place in the Land of Earth where ninjas of all kinds lived. They never attacked anybody, but boy could they defend themselves. The village had quite the reputation and slowly expanded as Yue grew older. He was the son of the leader of the village, a man who specialized in wind jutsu, and his wife who was a master of fire. He inherited both of their elements and trained in them during his childhood. He also played with the other children and went outside the village with them to help in the collecting of supplies. 

When he was 3 his family welcomed his little sister, Mai and life got a little more hectic. But he loved his sister and couldn't imagine not having her in the family. He was considered the heir to the village and she wasn't, but in reality, Yue didn't want the village so he would have been happy if she got it too. His parents knew that and raised them both to take over the village, they would have been happy if either one got that. He grew up in this way and was happy. When he turned 18 he was considered both a full grown adult and a full fledged ninja and he began to develop his own fighting style. 

By 22 he had created and mastered his own fighting style, which he would someday become famous for. That was also the year that tragedy struck. A group of bandits showed up and wiped out Korrin, killing most of the inhabitants. Yue was one of the lucky ones who survived, he had been out at the time and came home to find his family dead. Of course he couldn't stay there, and began to wander. He met up with two young men named Isha and Goro just a day later, a few days after they had met up themselves. With no real path in life, he joined up with them in what he assumed was a temporary alliance. But he has grown attached to them and has stayed for the past four years, with no intention on leaving them any time soon. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Yue is a calm and serious individual. He's mature for his age and usually the voice of reason. He has a good head on his shoulders and always thinks before he acts. He's usually peaceful, but can and will fight when needed, but he will try to find a peaceful way out. He's very patient, almost too patient sometimes, he'll wait to act and lose the opportunity he was looking for. He's honest to a fault and couldn't lie to save his life. He's stubborn as well and won't go down without a fight, if it comes to one. He's a bit of a mother hen, protective of his comrades and always trying make sure they're safe, which can be a bit annoying at times. He's a good listener and advice giver.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Beast_Wave_Palm"">Beast Wave Palm</a>: Instead of using his hands, Yue channels the chakra through his tessen.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sickle_Weasel_Technique"">Sickle Weasel Technique</a>: Due to the fact that he uses a normal fan, it is smaller than when someone with a giant fan uses it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> None, no chakra is needed.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Hansuki roughly translates into 'A single strike to a perfect point' its a fighting style that Yue invented and perfected. It focuses on empty handed strikes that usually take no more than a few fingers to be effective. Using his knowledge of the human body, Yue hits various spots on the body such as vitals or pressure points. He can take out an enemy without doing any permanent damage.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>  Yue has to get in close to use his fighting style and it can be defeated simply by blocking the strikes or wearing armor. If somebody is double jointed, hitting the joints won't work the normal way. It takes a huge amount of accuracy in order to hit some of the spots, if he's off by even a quarter of an inch it won't work.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> He stands at roughly 5'6 and weighs around 120 lbs.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Isha grew up in a small village in Tea Country. The village was large enough that they could sustain themselves without needing to rely on other villages for food and other supplies, but they were small enough that they were largely ignored by the other villages. His early childhood was very ordinary, he hung out with the other kids, he listened to his parents, etc. It wasn't until he was five that his potential was realized. During a routine exam to determine what his path in life would be it was discovered that he had extraordinary control of the chakra he currently possessed, though that was quite a small amount. At that moment it was decided that he would become the villages new medical ninja, which was fortunate for them since their current one was getting on in years. From that point on his life was no longer his own to influence. His friends were replaced with medical journals, he never got the chance to see his parents as during the day he was aiding in the clinic and at night his time was split between furthering his control as well as growing his chakra pool. This was his life for the next several years. 

When he turned 13 his chakra pool and control had reached the point where he could officially replace the previous doctor, and the village had him do just that. The limited free time he had managed to find for himself over the years no longer existed. When he wasn't treating injuries, most minor but occasionally more serious ones, he was filling his time with more study. While he found such things tedious for the first couple of years he now relished it. Despite his enjoyment of the knowledge and practical experience he found himself becoming restrained by the controlling grasp of the village elders. He had already read most of the medical journals that they possessed and since they did not trade with other villages they would not be getting any new material. With this in mind he began his preparations for his departure. 

Five long months passed before he could finally put his plan in motion. A month ago he had discovered a technique that could temporarily revive a corpse. By waiting for a person of similar structure to pass on he used a combination of medical ninjutsu and surgery he reconstructed the man's face to resemble his own. He then used the Dead Soul technique and had the corpse go through the day as normal while Isha quickly made his escape. By the time the walking dead mine finally collapsed, Isha was already several miles away. A couple of days later he met up with one Goro Sroda and after speaking at length they decided to travel together. A few days later they met up with another man, Yue Wudao and invited him to join them as well.

 For the last four years they have traveled together.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Isha is a very intelligent young man, as one would expect from a medical prodigy. However even with his great intelligent he is still subjected to the same downfalls as many his age. He is very curious, and this makes him act hastily in some circumstances. This does not apply to studies of course, he takes his time since furthering his understanding of medical ninjutsu is his main drive in life. He is a very charismatic kid always trying his best to keep people's spirits up even in the darker of times. Despite this he is capable of putting this lighter side away when it is needed, for example when someone is threatening his fellow travelers.</div></div>

Isha is not a very strong or durable individual he can only take a few strong hits head on and is nearly incapable of dealing out devastating strikes with only his muscles backing him up. He makes up for this with a combination of excellent footwork and flexibility, most attacks he will be able to either completely dodge by either darting away or bending around the attack.

He has a below average chakra pool, which makes it so that it takes quite a bit of time to recharge his Creation Rebirth after each use. He can only put so much in at a time while ensuring that he has enough to defend himself. 

Isha excels with medical ninjutsu, outside of that he has a firm understanding of Raiton jutsu though he only uses it in one technique.

In addition to the previously mentioned he is also highly skilled in mundane medical practices. 

As all Medical Shinobi do Isha has near perfect chakra control, partially due to his smaller than average chakra pool. 

Isha is still a young man and despite the fact that he is quite intelligent his youthful rashness causes him to occasionally run into dangerous situations without fully comprehending exactly what he is going to do once he gets in there. Fortunately he has found himself two traveling companions that often hold him back from being too rash.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Position:</span></span> Clan Enforcer - As Clan Enforcer, Tataruki never strays far from the clan's territory (she hardly ever deals with anyone outside of the clan), unless being ordered to by her superiors. This is because her role is to keep any unruly members in line, suppress any possible rebellions, and track and kill any traitors (when conducting this final responsibility, Tataruki may have to leave Clan Territory if the traitor was able to flee). As such, Tataruki is well-experienced in interrogation and torture tactics, often using her jutsu as aid.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Body Type:</span></span> In overall stature, Tataruki is a petite individual with a slender and narrow body, lacking a full and curvaceous figure. This somewhat flat physique has oftentimes led her to have a more androgynous appearance, although she sometimes tries to accentuate her feminine qualities with her makeup and attire. That said, despite her thin frame, she boasts a low percentage of body-fat and an excellent degree of muscle because of her active lifestyle.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> The only daughter to Ami &amp; Oruori Monzaemon, both mere Shinobi trainers in the clan and members of the Kabuki branch, Tataruki was bred as one would expect. Raised to be disdainful of other clans, whom Tataruki came to recognize as lesser than and basic. Among those teachings of discrimination though, Tataruki also learned other valuable lessons in life; her parents taught her the basic ways of a kunoichi, the further philosophies of the clan, and of course, the specialty of Chakra Threads.

A member of the Kabuki branch, she wasn't taught the focus of Puppet Techniques as her Bunraku cousins but on direct the applications of Chakra Threads, and in that area, she excelled. Always quick on her feet and with a sharp mind, Tataruki's cunning mind allowed her to be quite inventive in her use of Chakra Threads, earning her the moniker of ""The Thread Princess"" when she was only 10 (as she got older, she found the name to childish and did her best to get other's to forget about it, although certain individuals still refer to her by the nickname). 

All-in-all, things seemed to be going well for her.

However, things started to change when she was 16 years old (about 10 years ago). At the time, Kenshin Monzaemon was rising to power, and with him, his more open-minded ideology regarding outsiders. The drastic contrast of such a higher authorities' belief versus her own shook her a bit, and for a time, she was confused and insecure, unsure what to believe. That year became the beginning of a dark time in Tataruki's life, as mental struggles and dissonances caused her to suffer, and for her work to also take a toll.

A few years later (8 years ago) passed, Tataruki was 18 years old, and things started to plateau a bit. Tataruki still suffered from the occasional bout of depression caused by an insecurity in identity, but she was gaining more willpower and stride in her steps. A sudden shift when things began to deteriorate and culminated into a will-shattering series of events.

Two other clan members, nephews to Kenshin, and acquaintances to Tataruki began to stage a coup, and ultimately it all culminated into the event that Tataruki refers to <span class=""bb-b"">'The Night of Severed Threads'</span>. Amidst all of the fighting and rebellion, Tataruki found herself sided with the rebels, and as she was out gathering the loyalists, she stumbled upon her parents, pledging themselves as loyalists and fighting the rebels. Confused, scared and shocked, Tataruki froze. Other rebels commanded and yelled at her to act or suffer the consequences, but she remained frozen. For what seemed an eternity, Tataruki saw her parents slay their fellow kin, and then after the small band of rebels was rendered incapacitated, it left Tataruki and her parents facing one another.

Her parents made the first move, by trying to persuade Tataruki to join them, but even as they spoke, the deep ideologies of the Manzaemon fought against their words. Their honeyed-words and loving-hearts drew her in, though. She found herself in their arms, sobbing. But she wasn't sobbing for what they thought; she was sobbing in despair and regret. For despite their words, Tataruki saw the truth and forced her heart to become ignorant. While her parents remained blind to her actions, Tataruki pulled out her two kunai and killed both of her parents in merciless, cold blood.

Tears fell. Bonds were broken. But at least, the rebellion was successful.

Was it all worth it?

That question plagued Tataruki for a long time, even after she gave her parents a proper cremation, which led her to take an enlightening journey out in the desert, traveling the Land of Wind for a month.

She wasn't completely alone though, since she was required to keep in contact with the clan to some degree, as to not be considered a turncoat. For the most part though, she found herself alone and in the silence of the desert, she discovered things about herself that changed how she see saw the world and more importantly, herself.

She moved on from the despair that burdened her. She formed an identity for herself, no longer allowing herself to be in confusion and insecurity. And as she began to make her way back to the clan's territory, she found herself a close friend.

A mystical and rare fox that was known to journey the desert on occasion, Tataruki met the creature late one night, by the campfire she had going. The fox, still a youngling, was shivering in the desert frost, finding a refuge at the fire. Affected by both the majesty and innocence of the small fox, Tataruki felt it was her duty to protect the precious animal. Slowly, Tataruki attempted to gain the fox's trust throughout the night, giving it pieces of her rations, slowly inching towards it in a very non-aggressive way, and so forth. Then, after about 15 minutes, the fox did the most unexpected thing; it curled up right beside Tataruki and fell asleep.

That night, she made a companion.

Soon, her journey ended, and Tataruki was back with the clan a changed woman. By this time, she was 20 years old (7 years ago), and she was finally prepared to make changes in her life.

Focusing on the present and not dreading the past or future, Tataruki pledged her loyalty to her clan to a further degree, making herself available to the clan for various missions. And from that, she began to work up the ladder quickly because of her newly found work ethic (and the encouragement provided by Hitomo's presence). Within a matter of four years (3 years ago), she was granted the opportunity to be the Clan Enforcer, as her stern loyalty to the clan, willingness to do whatever it took (as evidenced by the murder of her loyalist parents), and exceptional skill made her a great candidate.

Now 3 years later, Tataruki spends her days doing her daily responsibilities of taking care of Hitomo, working on her skills, and of course, carrying out the duties of the Clan Enforcer.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Tataruki was always quite the individualist, even in her younger years, well not including her few years in her adolescence when she suffered her identity crisis. She was creative and ingenious, always separating herself from her peers not in academic excellence, but just in being eccentric.

A more free-spirited personality, Tataruki was always a loyal friend and clan member, albeit not the most stern. Known to be a contemplative person, she values the personal journey of a person, which is a reason why she took her own month long journey in the desert.

A devoted kunoichi, she believes that anyone in the Monzaemon can strive to improve the clan and themselves, no matter the cost, and therefore, her biggest annoyance is when she notices anyone doing subpar work intentionally. In these moments of irritation, Tataruki has been observed to be a very unsettling person. Maintaining her carefree and somewhat cheery demeanor, Tataruki's role as Clan Enforcer should never be forgotten, for behind her simple smile lies another execution or torture sessions waiting to happen. She has been known to sing songs, prattle aimlessly, and even recite poetry while assuming her duties.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A uncommon and slightly mystical species of fox, Hitomo has been Tataruki's companion for a number of years, even since the two found each other by mere chance, in the deserts of the Land of Wind. A fiercely loyal ally, Hitomo is known to be wary of most strangers. Still, for the most part he is like the average fox, complete with a simple, animal mentality.

The only two exceptions would be his use in some of Tataruki's jutsu and his drastically extended lifespan (averaging at about 25 years, instead of the usual 5 years). Nothing is inherently special about Hitomo though; It is through the use of Chakra Transfer via Tataruki's Chakra Threads that Hitomo can become a capable tool. When given her chakra, Hitomo is able to burst into flames without injuring itself and even assist in some collaborative jutsu, among other things.</div></div>

<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Although nothing special, especially for a A-Rank kunoichi (Jounin), Tataruki can form about 4 handseals every 1/4 of a second, roughly.</li><li>Tataruki is exceptional at stealth and silence, due to the assassination-related focuses of the Monzaemon clan.</li><li>In the same way, she is also an expert at using Chakra Threads/Chakra Flow techniques, able to use the related jutsu with relative ease and excellence.</li><li>Likewise, Tataruki is a professional when it comes to interrogation and torture tactics, known to be an excellent sleuth in her own right.</li><li>Tataruki has an adept skill in taijutsu and kenjutsu, although she is in no way extremely proficient in these areas since she doesn't use them all that much.</li><li>As sly as a fox, Tataruki's main prowess isn't physical but mental; creative and strategic, Tataruki has a penchant for getting what she wants efficiently and thoroughly completing all of her missions, no matter the cost.</li><li>Her companionship with Hitomo has made the two well-suited partners, in life and in combat.</li></ul><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Weaknesses:</span></span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Without the use of her Chakra Threads, Tataruki's shurikenjutsu and general bukijutsu suffer, since her natural aim and skill with projectiles is low, compared to the average Jounin, without the manipulative aid of her Chakra Thread techniques.</li><li>Adding on, since most of her jutsu rely on Chakra Threads, rendering her unable to use them severely limits her abilities.</li><li>Tataruki's close companionship with her pet fox, Hitomo, could be used to her disadvantage.</li><li>Tataruki is not well-suited for close-range or long-range fights; her specialities lie mostly in mid-range ordeals, where she can make the most use of her Chakra Threads and her Fire Release jutsu.</li><li>Tataruki is limited to only one Chakra Nature, which evidently makes her very weak against Water Release users, since she doesn't have much else to use besides her Fire Release jutsu.</li><li>Despite her attempts to supress her emotions and hide the truth, Tataruki's biggest burden and guilt involves the murder of her parents. Depending on the person and the tactics involved, knowing and using such information would rend Tataruki vulnerable and easy to manipulate, depressed and useless, or put her in a rage.</li><li>Although her light physique makes her very quick and agile, it also makes her endurance lower than that of others of her level, meaning she can not take as many direct blows as an opponent of equal rank, usually.</li></ul>

<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fire Release: Fox Technique: Fire Body 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Collaboration Jutsu, Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow - Supplementary, Offensive
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Target Only

<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 6 Handseals
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> After attaching a chakra thread to her pet fox Hitomo, Tataruki can cause the animal's body to be explode into flames, becoming a literal firefox (and being the reason behind Hitomo's alias). Once Hitomo has been set on fire, the chakra thread connection is broken, and Hitomo is rendered ablaze for a period of a couple of hours (unless Hitomo voluntarily douses itself or is extinguished by someone else). In this state, Hitomo can be used for a variety of purposes, such as a light, a campfire and etc. That said, the jutsu also has offensive capabilities, since the temperature of the flames reaches a peak of 644°F, easily capable of burning flesh with prolonged contact and causing immediate burns and pain. Once the flames subside, the jutsu must be executed again for the fire to begin again.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Although Hitomo is unaffected by its own fire, other Fire Techniques can still hurt it. Plus, any Water Release jutsu of one rank lower or higher (so C-Rank+) can easily douse the flames, as the flames do not come back, unless the jutsu is reinitiated.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Secret Ninja Art: Fox Sensing Technique
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Collaboration Jutsu, Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow - Supplementary
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Short to Mid-Range (30 feet from user, maximum)
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/X7MGAvw.png""/> Yin-Yang Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Onmyōton</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 7 Handseals
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By first connecting a Chakra Thread to Hitomo, then performing the necessary handseals, Tataruki's connection to her fox is strengthened to such a degree that the two share sensations and perceptions, effectively doubling their sensing abilities through their combined perceptive abilities. This makes either of them more difficult to surprise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> As both sensations and perceptions are shared, any pain or injury is felt by both parties, although the physical wound only exists on the actual victim. Cutting the Chakra Thread (or overextending it so it reaches its max range and snaps), immediately cancels the technique. Despite the benefits of the jutsu, prolonged use (roughly, 10 or more minutes) can lead to lightheadedness, disorientation, nausea and ultimately fainting (at the 20 minute mark), as the two separate perceptions become harder to deal with, even with chakra.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fox Technique: Blessing of Inari
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Collaboration Jutsu, Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow - Supplementary, Offensive
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Target Only
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/X7MGAvw.png""/> Yin-Yang Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Onmyōton</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 1 Handseal and a Clap.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> While connected to Hitomo with a Chakra Thread, Tataruki enhances Hitomo leading to a number of benefits, by using the spiritual and physical energies of Yin and Yang chakra. The benefits to Hitomo are below:<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Hitomo's size is increased by a factor of 2, becoming the size of an adult Husky or adolescent lion.</li><li>Hitomo gains some black-and-white markings on his fur, akin to tribal war paint and reminiscent of yin-yang symbolism.</li><li>His bone structure and keratin (thus including claws and teeth) is strengthened to the durability of bronze.</li><li>Hitomo muscles are also strengthened to be similar to an active, adult, healthy, male Shinobi. Oddly enough, muscle size isn't increased disproportionately, merely it's density and tensile strength are bettered. This means, he can actually carry a formidable load or pack a good punch.</li><li>Hitomo's speed can reach a peak of 25mph.</li><li>Hitomo's intellect increases enough for him to have basic abstract thinking abilities, allowing him to problem-solve and think somewhat tactically. Furthermore, he seems to understand human commands more efficiently.</li></ul><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Considering the utility of the technique, it unfortunately only lasts a minute, although is can be ended prematurely either voluntarily or by severing the connection between Tataruki and Hitomo (cutting the Chakra Thread or rendering one of them unconscious).

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fire Release: Searing Dragon Threads
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow - Offensive
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Target only (Chakra Threads)
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150x100q90/854/h410.png""/> Fire Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Katon</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> None
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> While still connected to her Chakra threads, Tataruki can focus her fire-natured chakra into her threads, causing them to heat up (and consequently provide a bit of illumination). Depending on the amount focused, the Chakra Threads' temperature may range from a 70°F (room temperature and starting temperature) to a max of 220°F (capable of permanent tissue damage and third-degree burns in less than a second). The threads heat up at a rate of 30°F/sec (max temperature is reached in 5 seconds). Considering the simple process behind the jutsu, Tataruki can execute it for an indefinite period.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The thread takes time to heat up, and can easily be cut by any chakra-cutting or tool or cooled down by a Water or Ice Release jutsu. Disabling Tataruki also works as a way to stop the technique. Once no longer being fed Tataruki's chakra (like when the jutsu is finished or cancelled), the threads instantaneously return to room temperature.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Secret Ninja Art: Greater Chakra Braiding Technique
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow - Offensive, Supplementary
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Mid-range (Maximum distance of 15 feet)
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/X7MGAvw.png""/> Yin-Yang Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Onmyōton</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 1 handseal
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Tataruki can increase the durability of her chakra threads tenfold with this jutsu, which creates a maximum of two, braided chakra threads from her palms (not her fingers). These chakra threads have the elasticity of tanned leather and function just as a whip would. Tataruki's Greater Chakra Threads, called Chakra Braids, boast a sharp tip, similar to a kunai in sharpness and killing potential. Due to the greater amount of chakra in the braids, they can actually be removed from Tataruki's palms (by cutting them off with anything that can cut concentrated chakra), and used as actual rope. These braids only last for 1 hour after removal, slowly weakening due to no longer having a chakra source, before dissipating entirely.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Tataruki is limited to only one Chakra Braid in each palm (two in total), at a time. Also, Chakra Cutting techniques can easily take care of this technique, and if somehow ensnared by it, waiting until it's get weak enough to tear naturally is a viable option.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fire Release: Rising Phoenix Barrier
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu, Barrier Ninjutsu - Offensive, Supplementary
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Short to Mid-range (barrier radius: 3 feet)
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150x100q90/854/h410.png""/> Fire Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Katon</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 10 Handseals and then Slamming Palms onto Ground
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> After conducting the necessary seals and then slamming her palms, the user's fire chakra travels under the surface and finally a cylinder of fire erupts around the target within a second (can be less, depending on the distance between the user and target). This cylinder of fire reaches a height of 10 feet and  tapers into a domed roof. As time goes on, the inside of the barrier slowly begins to heat up (starting at 85°F, increasing indefinitely at a rate of 2°F/sec). Touching the chakra-empowered flames results in intense pain (albeit no burns) and a mark appearing on the shinobi's body. Upon getting 3 marks, the barrier suddenly compresses and shrinks rapidly, consuming the trapped shinobi and turning them into ash.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Water Release jutsu of one rank lower or higher can dispel the barrier. The victim isn't inhibited in any way and certain jutsus may be able to bypass the flames (such as Shadow Imitation Techniques), although seeing beyond the bright flames may be difficult. Practically speaking, since the barrier heats up so slowly, death is up to the victim, since it's the receiving of the three marks that really seals their fate.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Chakra Thread Genjutsu: Demonic World of the Fox
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Genjutsu - Offensive
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S-Rank
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Short to Mid-range
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/YJGIzLA.png""/> Yang Release (<span class=""bb-i"">Inton</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> None
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By connecting all ten chakra threads to the cranium of the target, Tataruki can initiate a very potent illusion upon the victim in a moment's notice, by channeling her chakra directly into the victim's mind via the chakra thread, bypassing any possible deterrents, due to the direct connection to the mind.

When under the Genjutsu, the Chakra Thread Genjutsu: Demonic World of the Fox functions as a much more difficult version of the Tsukuyomi, alike in all aspects, except much more difficult because of the chakra consumption and focus required.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> If the Chakra Thread is cut, the Genjutsu ends instantly. The thread must have contact with the flesh/skin of the target and must be in the cranial area for the jutsu to work. The jutsu is rather demanding of the user, so the technique only lasts 1 minutes. Plus, the user is made vulnerable, since they must focus on the jutsu, while also losing their reaction with their hands since they're busy with the chakra threads. Furthermore, since the Genjutsu is not stemmed from any Dōjutsu, any Genjutsu Sensing/Breaking technique of equal rank, or Dōjutsu of one rank lower and up can dispel the Genjutsu.</div></div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Water and Wind
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Rachi is six foot and three inches tall, the tallest member of his clan. Though Rachi looks like he would be a light weight, he actually weighs closer to one hundred and eighty-five pounds. Most of that weight is pure muscle. Rachi is the only member of his clan born with naturally red hair. Rachi's yellow eyes are inherited as part of the Bukonari clan's Kekkei genkai. He has a multitude of scars on his back ranging in age and severity.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Rachi was born into the Bukonari clan and is also the only member in the past three decades to inherit their Kekkei genkai. He was praised from birth for having been born with it but also was hated by his brothers and sisters. Being the youngest child of his family of eight, Rachi was always given the most mineal jobs and sometimes the most degrading jobs. Whenever the others did something that got them in trouble, they would blame it on Rachi. Most of the time, this resulted in Rachi receiving lashings or worse. But, he never allowed his brothers and sisters to break his spirit.

Rachi was forbidden to train in the ways of the ninja from a very young age. His father said that inheriting the Kekkei genkai and being able to pass it on to was more important than flaunting its abilities. So, Rachi was locked away in the Bukonari mansion and never allowed to leave without a guard. It wasn't until Rachi was nine that he disobeyed his father. Originally, he only wished to go outside and see the world without guards, but that was when he met Kurosiri. Kurosiri was an older ninja who carried with him an oddly large sword wrapped in bandages. It took Rachi three months after he met Kurosiri to ask him to train him in the ways of the ninja. Kurosiri reluctantly agreed and, every night for the next nine years, Rachi would sneak out and train with Kurosiri. One night, Rachi asked Kurosiri about his sword wrapped in bandages. Kurosiri replied, ""This is Samehada, one of the seven greats swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Maybe one day you will be powerful enough to use it.""

That night was the last time Rachi would speak with Kurosiri for, unbeknownst to him, he had been followed that night. Rachi's father was outraged that Rachi had gone against his orders. As a punishment, Rachi was to be lashed once by every member of the Bukonari clan. That day, Rachi recieved one hundred lashes and passed out three times, but never was he allowed to stay passed out for long. It took Rachi two weeks to recover before he was able to go about his daily life once more. When Rachi turned nineteen, which happened three weeks after his recovery, he broke into the Bukonari vault and found Samehada. The Sword was bound in the center of the room with hundreds of strings of bandages which connected to every facet of the room. Rachi caustiously approached the sword and grasped the handle. 

In that moment, it felt as if Rachi had been slightly pricked but the pain went away in an instant. Rachi pulled the sword from the grasp on the bandages binding it in the air and swung it once. The blade smashed through a set of armor in the vault and caused enough noise that the entire compound responded. By the time every had reaching the Bukonari manor, Rachi was standing on top of the building with his yellow eyes glowing. Rachi had finally been able to unleash the Bukonari Kekkei genkai but had killed his father in the process. Blood was dripping from Samehada as Rachi looked down at what had been his clan. That night, Rachi would become a fugitive in Waterfall. He has been running from bounty hunters since then.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Rachi is a harsh man who has been hardened by his life in the Bukonari clan. He takes nothing lightly and is almost always serious all the time. He rarely ever jokes and whenever he does; he often keeps such a straight face that people thinks he is serious. Though Rachi might come across as uncaring or unattentive at times, he cares for almost everyone he meets and listens to everything they say. He treats everybody as if they were a blood brother or sister, though this is used in a loose term considering his past. Rachi often tries to seperate himself from people who he has grown a connection to so that they aren't put in trouble by his travels.

He is capable of maintaing several water clones for around two hours. Rachi is not very fast but is very dourable and capable of taking quite a few hits before he is out for the count. He is a decent ninjutsu user and is really good at Taijutsu but has never really been able to master genjutsu. Unfortunately, Rachi is very hot headed and will often rush into a battle. He also allows his pride to get ahead of him and will always fight a person should they question his honor or abilities. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai/Hiden/Kekkei Tota:</span> The Yellow Seal

<span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span> Bukonari

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This Kekkei genkai, the yellow seal as it is called by any member of the Bukonari clan, is know for locking away its users true strength. When the Seal is released, which is noted by a glowing tinge to the user's yellow eyes, the user can move faster and has an expanded chakra pool along with being able to take more hits and are resistant to genjutsu. Unfortunately, this activated form causes muscles to tear in the process and shortens the user's life time by at least four months every time it is used for more than thirty minutes.

110% Uchiha

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Rank</span></span>:
Former Third Head of the Uchiha Clan

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature</span></span>: 
Fire

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span></span>: 
As a child, Toyo was always light hearted and pure, holding no hatred or corruption within his heart. His kind nature was so thoroughly engrained in him that even upon awakening his clan's bloodline, he never succumbed to hatred. With the aid of his own willpower and the people closest to him, he's been able to suppress the underlying darkness that every Uchiha, and arguably, every human being, holds deep within their psyche. This innocence that he possessed as a child would ultimately come to shape Toyo's personality and form his philosophy as an adult. It has evolved into his most defining trait, shaping the majority of his actions.

However, despite his refusal to succumb to his clan's legendary hatred, Toyo is only human. A human tainted with the blood of Uchiha, at that. The hatred he keeps under lock and key in the jail of his subconscious still lingers beneath the surface, rattling its chains, threatening to break loose. As such, though Toyo's willpower is incredible, it is not enough to keep his darkness under control. He has come to rely heavily on the influence of his closest friends and that of the person he cherishes most: his tag-team partner, Ichigo. He is a stabilizing influence upon him, bringing him back into his light when his darkness threatens to overwhelm.

Aside from his benevolent nature, Toyotomi's personality is pervaded by his infectious cheerfulness. He is boisterously upbeat, constantly smiling and joking. No one ever catches the guy in an off mood; he likes to actively project his happy-go-lucky persona, feeling that it is preferable to being someone who constantly expresses their negativity. Toyo views such people as completely depressing, and strives to be someone that influences the people around him to be happy. This can mainly be attributed to his firmly held belief that happiness is inevitably the most important measure of success to be gleaned from life.

This man is nothing if not honest, sometimes unintentionally brutally so. He isn't afraid to speak his complete, unadulterated opinion, clearly lacking any semblance of tact or social grace. Toyo is compared to being somewhat like a knife: sharp and to the point. His honesty is, to him, one of his best qualities, though he concedes that it can also get him into major trouble. This happens mostly when interacting with other people. He has a tendency to speak without putting his words through a mental filter.

Despite being a twenty-eight year old man, Toyotomi is a playful, childish person. He refuses to truly be serious unless it is imperative that he do so, as he feels like seriousness simply takes away from the fun and wonder of just living. As such, he will frequently play around and waste time, and isn't hesitant about displaying, well, sheer goofiness. In fact, he is considered to be an irresponsible child by some who haven't experienced his more mature, determined side. He is capable of surprising even those who know him best with this side of his personality, some having doubted its existence.

When it is necessary, Toyo can possess a grave maturity, displaying a calm seriousness beyond what anybody considers him capable of. When his somber side shows itself, nothing will stop him from relentlessly approaching whatever situation draws it out with an analytical, taciturn methodology. When he gets serious and sets his mind to something, he will not allow anything to get in his way. Though this hidden seriousness mostly reveals itself in tense situations, it will sometimes appear at random when Toyotomi is deep in reflection. Bouts of graveness will occasionally grip him.

As the Clan Head, Toyo naturally has formed his own world-view, and it shows in his style as a leader. His beliefs, or Nindō, amount to a strong belief in the guidance of conscience. Toyotomi truly believes that given life's moral uncertainty, all one can really do in the world is let their conscience guide their actions. Thus, he has a strong disapproval of those who go through life never examining their own views of morality, considering these people to be ultimately unfulfilled (""The unexamined life is not worth living."" - Socrates). His own conscience leads Toyotomi to hold such ideals as peace, equality, justice, and freedom very dear. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">History</span></span>:
	Toyotomi and his twin brother Daaku are born to Tomie Raito and Date Uchiha.

	Sensui Uchiha, their grandfather, takes both boys from their parents to experiment on them. The experiments are deemed successful for Daaku and Toyo is deemed unworthy.

	Toyo learns that the experiment upon him and their grandfather's spiritual connection mutated him differently from his brother. 

	Space-Time Ninjutsu is created by Toyo and extends his life far greater then any man. 

	Tomie and Date turn up missing leaving Toyo as the inheritor of the Uchiha Clan. 

	Toyo and Daaku earn their nicknames when they destroy an entire clan posing a threat to the Uchiha.

	Toyo becomes a huge name in the Ninja World alongside his brother as the longest living ninja to date with various achievements. 

        Toyo has three children, one girl, and two boys. 

        Daaku leaves the clan after heavily injuring Toyo and killing two high level jounin. 
 
        Toyo gives up head of clan to his eldest daughter, Azula. He instead returns to being a jounin and can aide a reliable word when necessary.

20x Kunai

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
Kunai, along with the shuriken, is one of the most common ninja tools in the Naruto series. It is a black dagger designed for thrusting and stabbing, though it can still do some damage if thrown despite not being designed for it, and is about the length of one's hand.

Many shinobi attack by attaching an explosive tag to the blade. The kunai is usually thrown so that it lodges in an object near the target, and then the explosion from the attached tag destroys the target. This use of the weapon is known as an explosive kunai (起爆クナイ, kibaku kunai).

Kunai can also be kept on spring-loaded wires up the user's sleeve. They can be used for close combat, like a normal knife. Empowered with chakra flow, kunai thrown into targets can cut through solid wood and even solid stone targets.

Shinobi appear to favour them so much due to both their sturdy and dependable nature, as well as their evident versatility. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> 
20x Shuriken

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
Shuriken, like kunai, are one of the more basic weapons seen in Naruto series. They are sharpened, four-pronged metal stars, useful for throwing. Although small, they can be used to distract, pin down enemy shinobi, or if accurate enough, can be deadly. They have an open circle in the centre, useful for grabbing with a finger, to avoid cutting oneself, or to put thread through. The circle is also beneficial to the weapon's overall aerodynamics, ensuring more accurate trajectories. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> 
10x Explosive Tags

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
Explosive tags are scraps of paper inscribed with a special writing, centring around the kanji for ""explode"" (爆, baku). Infused with chakra, they will explode after a set amount of time, remotely, or after being ignited by flame. The tags can be attached to a surface or wrapped around a weapon to be thrown at an enemy. They are very versatile and one of the basic ninja tools. Ninja can confuse their enemies by obtaining fake exploding tags. They work even under heavy rain.[1]

When an explosive tag is detonated remotely, ninja tend to use the ""Snake"" hand seal. Similarly, when used remotely, exploding tags can be detonated in sequence, allowing them to be used to trap opponents.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> 
4x Fūma shuriken

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
The fūma shuriken is a large, four-bladed shuriken possessing pre-eminent sharpness and lethality. This type of shuriken is considered characteristic to the famous Fūma clan, after whom they were named and who possibly developed them. However, their use is not limited to this clan. Its four blades can be collapsed for easy storage, leading to its nickname Shadow Windmill (影風車, Kage Fūsha).

As Zabuza Momochi and Obito Uchiha demonstrated, the shuriken can be used in melee combat, by spinning the blade in one's hand to slash and stab the opponent directly. In Sasuke's battle with Itachi, he has shown the ability to rig the four blades to disconnect via pulling a connected wire and have them fire in cardinal directions as a surprise attack, as well as imbuing it with a Chidori to increase its cutting power. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> 
Wire Strings

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
Wire Strings are thin pieces of wires that are highly durable and can be used for rappelling, manipulating weapons, or to bind and restrict the movements of an opponent or in setting traps. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> Blood Increasing Pills (増血丸, Zōketsugan)

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 
The Blood Increasing Pill is a pill used by ninja to speed up the formation and increase of blood in the body. After having lost a significant amount of blood in battle, a ninja can use this pill to replenish their blood so they can keep on fighting.</div></div>

Chakra Control - Toyo's chakra reserves are noted to be above average even for Uchiha standards. However, to compensate for his lack of raw chakra strength and potency, Toyo is in possession of refined chakra control. His chakra control allows him to produce jutsu with a single hand and at a smaller cost then needed. Though Toyotomi has extensively mastered Fire Release Jutsu and placing his kunai/shuriken into his fire jutsu.

Shurikenjutsu - Toyotomi is well versed in the use of weapon such as kunai and shuriken. Despite being the weaker of the two, basic shuriken are the weapon Toyotomi has the easiest access to, to the point of sealing a multitude into his wrist for easier access. With this method, he proves both his speed and throwing skill, able to launch multiple shuriken with great speed and accuracy, to the point where his hands are a blur that the eye cannot track. Like several Uchiha, he also seems to favor the use of the Fūma Shuriken, and is capable of the use of techniques like Shadow Shuriken Technique in which he can hide one shuriken in the shadow of another.

Toyotomi is capable of wielding kunai with as much proficiency as a self-taught sword expert, easily using his kunai to parry blows from even oversized katanas. Like with shuriken, Toyotomi has great skill in both the speed and aiming of kunai, able to use methods to accurately hit targets that are located even in his own blindspots. Toyotomi also uses a method of combining wire with the holes in the kunai tip, wrapping an opponent and manipulating the wire so that the kunai invert their positioning and cut into their opponent. He also stores a kunai up in his sleeve for easier access.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Shiro Higi (White Flame Art"" type=""button"">Shiro Higi (White Flame Art [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">White Flame Art is an advanced style of Fire Release created by Toyotomi Uchiha, the Third Head of the Uchiha Clan. It was named, obviously, for its colour. The flames created in a White Flame Art technique turn a rather ghastly, yet spellbindingly breathtaking translucent white. The white flames are characterized most definitively by their intense heat, the raison d'être for the aforementioned coloration. Scientifically speaking, white fire is the hottest natural occurring fire, as it occurs in the hottest parts of diffusion (incomplete combustion).

The creation of this special utilization of the Fire Release commenced shortly after Toyotomi learned the Void Dash. He decided upon modifying the traditional manipulation of the Fire element, in order to better coalesce with the fighting style predicated now so heavily upon his swiftness. To accomplish this, Toyotomi realized that what he desired was a form of Fire Release that allowed for near instantaneous conjuration of flames, something that would take a rather powerful level of skill to create.

In the White Flame Art, this nearly complete combustion of flames is accelerated, a mark of mastery in a Fire Release user. Nearly instantaneous combustion is the result, allowing the user to conjure flames almost immediately. However, the cost of this rapid creation of the ultra hot white fire requires a fair amount of Chakra, more so than the normal flames of the less advanced Fire Release. Given their high temperature, these white flames cannot be extinguished easily, and though they will eventually burn themselves out, this takes longer than it would for normal fire. While Water Release techniques can douse the white fire, it would take a rather massive quantity, so therefore fighting the White Flame Art with water would take a true master of the element.

The final component of White Flame Art, alongside rapid combustion and intense heat, is the malleable, controlled nature of the fire. Normal fire conjured by a user of the element is normally controlled to only a limited degree; however, those who are capable of mastering the White Flame Art have an inordinate amount of control over the flames, able to form them into specific shapes, bend them to their will, etc. 

The White Flame Art is tantalizingly simple, yet exceedingly intricate in its mechanisms, being a feat more sheer of chakra control and potency. For the user to achieve the spectacular white flames, it takes the perfect balance found in what is very like a chemical equation. For normal Fire Release, chakra seems to take the form of fuel. Chakra transformed with the fire element is then combusted by the presence of external oxygen, much like in a normal chemical reaction. The factor that alters Toyo's particular White Flame Art is that it takes this a step further.

In the White Flame Art, chakra takes the role still of fuel. However, Toyo's extensive mastery of the Fire element coupled with his powerful chakra control allows him to give his chakra a dual purpose; to wit, his chakra doubles as an accelerant, as well. This is the vehicle for White Flame Art's characteristic near-instantaneous combustion, as well as its intense heat. The chakra's accelerant effect is what elevates the flames to such high temperatures as to warrant their incandescent white hue, and their propensity to flare in the blink of an eye. The flames, in summation, are a testament to their creator's powerful mastery of his affined element.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Personal
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Space-Time
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The user is able to transport themselves and anything in their possession within the blink of an eye. This power does have preset limits, in that any user cannot transport anything exceeding a total weight of 907.2 kilograms (1 ton). The user is able to make these ""jumps"" by creating a localized void where they are able to form a maze-work of chakra lay-lines due to specific formula that acts as a reverse summoning. These lines are only visible to the user and allow for them to transform themselves and anything they are in contact with into pure chakra and the lines in turn act as transmitters and receivers. The action itself is seen as the user bursting into particles before reforming in a new location.

This power unlike that of the Rinnegan Shifting Technique, and more similar to that of Kamui is that it doesn't need to lock on to a set area in order to jump and unlike Kamui, the user is able to switch their target at will mid teleportation, which is done by simply following a different lay-line. This form of teleportation is extremely taxing on his body and chakra reserves if he jumps too many times in a short period of time or if he pushes the weight limit too many times in a one day period. He has stated that if he were to push his ability to its limit the lag time between that and his next jump would be about 2 minutes. When teleporting objects he has to be in direct contact with it while he teleports himself and as a result he cannot use it to teleport incoming chakra-based attacks away from his body.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Only four teleports are allowed up to one mile and the user must wait fifteen seconds to before he can teleport again.

<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Ten Special Handseals
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span>This jutsu allows the user to create a confined barrier of everlasting space. Due to its extremely complex design, it teleports whatever exits the barrier back into it, preventing escape by all means. It can also be modified to where if the opponent tried to exit on the right, they would emerge from the inside of the barrier on the left, and vice versa for other directions. Because the barrier isn't made of chakra, but is composed of space warped to the fullest extent, it can't be absorbed by chakra absorption techniques, such as the Blocking Technique Absorption Seal.

It works by isolating the opponent in a seperate reqion of curved space-time. Just like a wormhole can transport a person from one part of the universe to another via a shortcut within space, this barrier relocates them back to the inside of the barrier upon exiting, via chakra signature of whatever was placed within it. The user can sustain this barrier as long as he supplies chakra to it, as it consumes a medium amount of chakra at a constant rate. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>
The user must maintain the barrier and any broken concentration destroys the link to the barrier.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Rank:</span></span> S
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Position:</span></span> Izumi is the current head of the Senju clan
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Wood, Yin and Yang
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Izumi stands at an average five foot seven and weighs an approximate one hundred and thirty pounds.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Izumi was born into a loving family, the first child of the head of the Senju clan and while her father desired a son, a daughter would do until his boy would arrive. But that day never came, whether it was fate or some greater power’s doing; days after Izumi was born Taiyo was told his wife would never bear any children again. Due to this unfortunate event it was decided on that day that Izumi would be held up to the highest degree. Her tutelage would be both difficult and constant and she would make or both a wonderful woman and a Kunoichi to be feared. 

That was generally a rule that carried Izumi throughout her life. Her mother taught her how to care for those in the village, why it was important to know when to be kind and when to show mercy and when not to. Her father directly mentored her on the ways of the clan, if she were to lead it one day, she had best know it as well as her own body. When Izumi turned five years old she was given her first kunai. 

Izumi was gifted enough to stand out in the Senju clan’s youth. She learned combat from her father and medical Ninjutsu from her mother. She was much more gifted in the clan’s techniques however, this pleased her father. He was a man of action, he scarcely asked about the needs and wants of others and diplomacy may as well have been sin. During her upbringing, Izumi cared for the members of the Senju clan, looking after them and taking care of the things she knew her father wouldn’t bother to look after. This garnered her both respect and care from each of the clan’s members. However, when her father found out she had been going behind his back he was furious .When Izumi turned six years old she was given her first black eye. 

At first, Izumi felt a real fear on her father’s behalf. He was the head of the clan which must’ve meant that no matter where she went, no matter what she did, he would be waiting for her. But after a few weeks of inaction, she realized that this strategy was only hurting the people of her clan. So she dedicated all her time to helping the clan, if she was not training with her parents she was trying to find a way to ease the pain of everyday life from her clansmen. 

After ten years, Izumi was good. She could hide things like helping someone from her father without a problem. That was, until she failed to do so. She remembered that day like someone had put it on a loop in her brain. It replayed constantly, whenever it rained. Izumi was helping a young boy and his pregnant mother secure food for the eve. She was hunting with the boy; they had just located a beautiful deer. Izumi used a miniature version of her wood prison Jutsu entrapping the creature. They both quickly put the stag out of its misery and carried it. On the way back however, something was awry. Izumi could hear someone following them, the two rushed out into the clan’s clearing and Izumi withdrew a kunai, preparing to lunge. She was met with her father. 

She could tell he was upset because his lips looked like they were fighting for supremacy being pushing into each other, his anger was too obvious. She immediately placed her kunai back into her pouch. 

“Father, I’m sorry.” She would begin. But he wouldn’t let her finish. He began a tirade, spewing insults at his daughter. One by one the clansmen came to watch the spectacle no one said a word, they just watched. Izumi wanted to scream for help, her eyes trying to make contact with someone, anyone. But just as she thought someone had finally noticed her she noticed the sky was retreating and the hard ground met the back of her skull delivering a peck. It stung. Before she could blink she realized she was performing handseals, she stopped and tried to lift herself from the ground, but before she could she had activated a Jutsu. A single shoot of bamboo jut upwards from the ground and pierced her father’s body, killing him. At first she was stunned, but soon after, the clansmen all began to applaud her. Taiyo’s rage had finally ended; his horrible crusade at the helm of the Senju clan was done. The Little Commander had become their new leader.

As Leader of the Senju clan she began undoing the harm her father had caused by reaching out to other clans in the surrounding area in an attempt to get in contact with them, namely the Uchiha clan and Nara clan.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Izumi is a woman who has been given many mixed messages on her journey to adulthood. Thusly, she has trouble finding the correct method of dealing with some complicated situations. But having just turned twenty, most who know her know that she has quite a few traits that are there to stay. She is very willing to help those in need of aid and has a very large heart when it comes to those who suffer for no fault of their own. In battle she is typically very quiet, she has learned to say the name of her techniques in her mind rather than aloud in order to avoid tipping off the enemy to her tactics though she is prone to celebration after a victory.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Yuen just reaches a height of five foot five and weighs around one hundred and twenty pounds.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Yuen was born into the Uchiha clan to a tired mother and an absentee father. She would live her life under the shadow of her father and see even less of him. Yuen’s mother was a Kunoichi heralded by the rest of the clan as one of the best the clan ever had. The other children would always tell Yuen of how jealous they were that she had such prestigious parents, seemingly everyone knew of her parent’s legacy, which should’ve made Yuen proud of her name, but instead she just found anger in it.

Around the time Yuen turned ten years old her mother began to become frustrated in her and her inability to unlock the Sharingan. So one day her mother brought her into the living room sat her down and cast a Genjutsu on her. Yuen doesn’t remember much from the day, but when she awoke night had fallen, her ankle was broken and the search party had found her alone in the woods by a stream with the Sharingan. 

Yuen since that day trained under her mother’s close personal supervision, very rarely interacting with the rest of the clan. During this five year period she became something of a legend within the Uchiha clan though not quite due to her own efforts but for her mother’s strict regimen. Every day Yuen would sleep from 2-7 and train for the rest of her waking hours. But Yuen felt rage towards her mother, every time she looked at her, it was like an inconsolable itch that Yuen <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to scratch. Yet everyday Yuen would practice her techniques on her mother, training with her, but would relent to avoid doing damage to her mother’s psyche. Every training session, the itch would only grow. 

But the past two years Yuen became more active in the clan’s community, accepting covert missions and becoming much more active in the field, whether it’s normal things like hunting for food for the clan. Or espionage missions involving taking out specific individuals, Yuen finally begun to make a name for herself. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Yuen is odd at best. She keeps to herself and not many know much about her. She is best known for wanting to contribute to the clan, never having committed an injustice towards the clan or anyone in it. Yuen considers herself a failure until proven wrong by her actions, she is thusly always trying to prove herself not only to the clan but to her mother and those who would oppose her.

Yuen’s specialty is speed and stealth, making her not as physically strong or durable.
Yuen has a large chakra pool.
Genjutsu and Ninjutsu are above average whereas Taijutsu falls flat for Yuen.
She has incredible aim with the Sharingan activated thusly giving her some talent in Shurikenjutsu.
Yuen has average chakra control.
Yuen would rather never have to make contact with the enemy due to her low physical abilities.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The 2 Tomoe Sharingan allows a user to predict an enemy’s movements one step ahead, thusly a punch can be foreseen a Jutsu however cannot. She also uses it as a source of Hypnotization to interrogate and cast Genjutsu. Finally one may also use it in an attempt to copy a Jutsu. However Yuen would need to see that Jutsu performed at least three times and would then be required to practice that technique for at least two five hour training sessions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> No real offensive value other than to draw someone out.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fuinjutsu: Nozoki Ano (Sealing Technique: Peephole)
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu, Genjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Far 
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Yin
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Three, one palm on surface.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Yuen places a seal on a surface and activates the technique afterwards by performing the third seal again. The surface becomes a peephole, her Sharingan eyes appearing through them, this technique can be used to capture someone in the Sharingan Genjutsu. The size of the seal is directly dependent on how long the user places their palm on the surface.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> A lot of this techniques usefulness is born through deceit, if the enemy doesn’t fall for it and doesn’t look at the seal it will not work.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Karasu no Satsujin (Murder of Crows)
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu, Ninjutsu 	
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 4
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By placing this seal on herself, Yuen can completely change herself into a murder of crows and relocate somewhere else. Yuen can also use this technique to summon crows from her body, growing out of her shoulders, arms and other extremities. The catch that makes this Jutsu so useful is that each of these crows possesses Yuen’s Sharingan and eye contact with any of these crows can cause someone to fall into her Genjutsu.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> No real offensive value to this skill other than casting a Genjutsu.

 
====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Shibō Garagara (Death Rattle) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> 	Genjutsu

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By imbuing her voice with Chakra, Yuen whistles to cast a soothing Genjutsu that either makes the target incredible tired or puts them in a comatose state for up to ten minutes. This is untraceable with the aid of Dojutsu do to it being completely auditory. This requires very little chakra on Yuen’s behalf.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Those who know of the technique or know the technique is transpiring can actively fight it with their will.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By placing the smallest amount of chakra in both of the ‘tattoos’ in her lips Yuen can effectively and without fail place the enemy in a Genjutsu in which for them it will feel like their heart has stopped and they will be unable to breathe. In reality they will be placed in a deep sleep until <span class=""bb-s"">true love’s kiss</span> an hour passes.

Name: Kao Dorobo 
Nickname/Alias: 
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Age Appearance: 17
Sexuality: Straight

Birthplace:

Organization:
Clan/Kekkei Genkai (or hiden):

Rank: Not Placed (As you’ll see in the history he never went into schooling he only knows what he’s developed)
Position:  N/A
Chakra Nature:  Wind 

Additional Appearance Details: 6’1”, slim build, face paint that changes between several different styles (I’ll do my best to find my designs), scar along his temple from a mistake he made doing puppet modifications that caused the spring to launch out cutting him almost hitting his eye.

History: 
Kao Dorobo was abandoned at about 8 and the majority of his memory was removed through a seal blocking out his memories. Waking up he was left with a small puppet and a natural talent to its workings, and vague images of people he feels he should have known. With just these things he went along in life traveling trying to find a place where he could belong, making money by putting on shows with his puppet.
After a period of time Kao began feeling an emptiness, a new larger one compared to the small hole he had from feeling out of place. He tried to fill this void with puppets he worked on at night while still trying to do shows by day using more than one now to do fights, or acting, or whatever else he had to do. The traveling career though eventually brought a danger.
At about age 11 Kao ran into a danger while traveling, bandits. Somehow eluding them for 3 years of traveling, they finally showed up. It was his first encounter with people who wanted to do nothing but hurt someone, he had spent his entire life (at least what’s remembered) trying to bring joy to people, keeping them happy. He tried to talk them out of it, tried to make them go away, but they didn’t listen… a mistake Kao wishes they didn’t make. This was the first time he was forced to make someone bleed, forced to kill, something he didn’t enjoy. 



Personality: Kao is loyal and protective of what little he has. Appearing cold to some unless he’s working with on puppets or putting on a show with them. 

Theme: Not sure what you mean by this.</div></div>

Agility: 8

Durable: 7

Chakara Pool:  5-6

Jutsu Type: Ninjutsu (Puppet Technique) 

Chakra Control: Very Strong

Weakness/ limitations: Though good with puppets if you can get past them it is easy to take down Kao, Kao is also a pacifistic in beliefs preferring not to fight


Puppet Technique- no real modification, carries a scroll for each


Customs
Secret Technique: 8 Flying Arms of Hagu
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu 
Rank: D
Range:  Short-Mid (up to 30m from puppet)
Nature Type: Wind
Handseals: Ram-Rat-Ox-Bird-Chain*

Description: The 8 arms of Hagu (Last resort/ kidnap puppet) detach and fly at the victim at high speeds using small ball joints as a base that can use that point to surround the opponent immobilizing them for Hagu to shove the victim into his body where the gas mechanism activates 

Weakness: Though it is a quick maneuver, the opponent can theoretically get an arm out of the lock which can then be used to hit the joints forcing the strings to reset freeing the victim. 

*Chain is a handseal I came up with, and Secret technique my character does will end with


Secret Technique: Martyoshka 3 man army
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range Short-Mid (no more than 15m)
Nature Type: 
Handseals:

Description: Martyoshka 3 man army, has a severe amount of focus to be done properly as each moment is crucial. 

Step 1: Big comes towards the opponent releasing the scythe blades in his knees acting as if to go for a stab when Mid opens Big and pops out grabbing the Bigs left arm which is a sword, which should open the opponents defenses

Step 2: As the opponent now must react to both puppets (And Mids more unique 360 motion to being hit) using blades the true punch to this technique comes out as Small jumps out of Mids chest to the air retracting all body parts besides the arms which release their blades dropping down towards the enemy

Step 3: As Small gains speed coming down, both Big and Mid must attack to distract the enemy and keep them in the same location

Step 4: Once small has landed Big and Mid rip him out

*If not meant to kill Small uses his hardened kneecaps instead for the drop</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Chakra Nature:</span></span> Fire, Lightning, Yin, and Yang.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Standing at 6 feet, and weighing 210, most of which comes from muscle, the Hyuga is a daunting man to look upon. Typically garbed in greys, blacks, with crimson or white accents, Shinku is typically quite easy to distinguish in a crowd, if not by his clothes, then by the aura of malice that shrouds him like his black cloak. More often than not he can be seen with a slight smirk on his lips and a dark, foreboding amusement in his eyes likening him to the guise of a starved beast—ravenous and unpredictable.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Born to the Main branch of the Hyuga family, Shinku was the youngest of three siblings, both brothers, and so was raised only as a back-up plan should his elder brothers fall in battle. He took offense to this early, becoming jealous over the years as he noted his parents obvious favor to his elder siblings. Not enjoying what he found to be obvious scorn, Shinku at first did his best to out preform his brothers in any way he could. The first way that he found he could do this was in their training, as the three boys were trained together, perhaps to foster rivalry and thus improved results from their ambition.

This method perhaps worked too well as Shinku's father and brothers quickly discovered that while he was the third son, he had inherited what could be considered one of the most potent Byakugan for generations. Even at an early age he was capable of advanced forms of sensory perception, able to evade and counter both of his brothers in single combat with relative ease. Such was his mastery that he could nullify strikes of the gentle fist by releasing a pulse of chakra to disrupt attacks on impact.

His brothers, Tetsuishi and Ryūko did not however, enjoy being shown up and so one day they cornered him out of sight of their parents and challenged him, two to one. Thinking it a casual challenge or practice, Shinku agreed and took stance, ready to have a good training bout with his brothers.

The results were not pretty. As a testament to Shinku's skill, despite the age gap of 5 and 9 years between he and his elder siblings, both boys were laid unconscious from pain by the end of it and Shinku stood confused. He did not understand how his brothers had not stood a better chance, thinking that they had perhaps held back he sat down and waited for them to regain consciousness.

When they awoke Shinku was sitting, with a beaming smile, and clapping his hands. He asked for another round, insisting that they had held back. In response, Tetsuishi and  Ryūko got to their feet and backed away, frightened. This was the first time Shinku was called a demon, but it was not the last.

For several years little happened between the brothers, but it began to become apparent that the eldest,  Ryūko, was to be the head of the clan upon their father's death. By now Shinku was 18 and had began to yearn for freedom from regiment, from responsibility. He found that he no longer wished to lead what others called his clansmen, his kin. He had no interest, they were inconsequential. Nonetheless, his clearly inferior elder brother being the heir irked him so he devised a plan to...<span class=""bb-i"">change things</span>.

Waiting till his eldest brother was asleep, Shinku made his way to his sleeping quarters and, utilizing the very style his father had taught him, killed his sibling, rupturing his organs by applying gratuitous amounts of chakratic force with his strikes. He then stole away with Tetsuishi, threatening that he'd kill him unless he be pardoned, for he was not a fool and knew the consequences for killing a member of the head family, even if he did not understand them.

Out of necessity he was allowed to live, but not among the Hyuga, no, his father exiled him, stating that should a member of the clan lay eyes on him they were to steer clear, or organize a strike team to eliminate him.

In the following years Shinku made no attempt to hide his presence, at least not until they sent a strike team. It was only then that he revealed he'd been doing mercenary work, having learned to hide himself effectively when necessary. So it was that the hunting party, became the hunted.

None returned.

Since then Shinku has roamed the lands selling his skills for coin and enjoyment. When a contract does not amusement and he has received his payment, he additionally takes the payment of his employer's life. Still, while a dangerous man, he is a valuable asset to any who can retain his amusement and thus make themselves worthy of his time. If this can be done he will serve with the loyalty begotten from great enjoyment, for what is better than pleasure in a life whose years are numbered?

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> In short, Shinku is a predator and a sociopath, preying on the weak, and strong both. He cares little for matters of <span class=""bb-i"">morality</span>, not really understanding the difference between killing someone who has wronged you, and killing a small child for bumping into you accidentally on the street. Still, Shinku does have <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> feelings and can be offended. In fact, he becomes jealous as easily as he is angered and the two are easily linked. Beyond this it is made clear by his behavior both in his mercenary years and in his childhood, that he sees no problem with killing, theft, extortion and manipulation of all kinds. Still, he does not prefer to be subtle, instead taking intense pleasure from blatant torture and defacement of what people find precious. He is disloyal, lest you garner his respect by besting him, yet offering deference of a sort, as his pride is not to be hurt.

While certainly a savant in the area of combat, if not an outright genius or prodigy, Shinku is lacking when it comes to intentionally swaying others in a subtle manner. No, he much prefers to destroy than to create and will revert to his base nature if given the chance. When angered or driven into a fit of deeply seated jealousy, Shinku is more prone to manipulation as his arrogance will more likely beget recklessness. This is surely one of his greatest flaws, along with his inability to empathize with others or understand the weight, or relevance, of what others call “sins”. While some might think that being incapable of empathy would not weigh or disadvantage someone they would be sorely wrong for it makes manipulation of people's emotions much more difficult and prediction of their actions by such just as hard. It is in this way that Shinku can be confused by false emotional stimuli as he must go on what he sees as he does not feel as others do. That is simply his lot in life. Though, perhaps he is deserving of such a fate, considering his depraved past, or are all men worthy of redemption?

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai:</span> Byakugan(White Eye).

<span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span> Hyūga

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The primary ability of the Byakugan gives the user a near 360º field of vision, except for one blind spot at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebra. Upon activation of the dōjutsu, the wielder is granted an automatic 50 meter field of vision around themselves which can be extended through training to at least 10 kilometers.

The Byakugan is also able to see through solid objects, smokescreens, and even through most barriers as only a particularly strong barrier such as the Four Black Fogs Formation is able to somewhat distort the Byakugan's perception. It can also differentiate between non-corporeal clones and see through techniques that would otherwise hide an opponent from normal sight. The dōjutsu has the ability to follow high-speed movement. It is also able to magnify objects to see the smallest of targets in the area and see in infrared to detect a target's body heat.

Arguably its greatest ability is to see chakra in all its nature, including its flow and the circulation system inside the body with great detail as well as the colour of chakra allowing the wielder to differentiate them. Like the Sharingan and Rinnegan, the Byakugan can detect chakra sealed barriers as well as determine when genjutsu is being used. The Byakugan can also discern a transformation from the real person through their chakra. It is from the Byakugan's especially acute perception of chakra that the Hyūga Clan are able to employ their signature fighting style: Gentle Fist. Able to strike without force, and yet do more damage to a ninja than some of the most powerful ninjutsu.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senbatsu jokyo tsuku(<span class=""bb-i"">選抜除去突く</span> 'Culling Strikes').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei Taijutsu/Kinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> While utilizing the gentle fist style, the user directs chakra to the palms and fingers especially, amplifying the already crippling strikes of the Juuken to higher levels. While not officially a technique of the Hyuga clan, Senbatsu jokyo tsuku allows a master practitioner of the Juuken to kill with a minimum of two to four strikes depending on the areas struck. The reason for this technique's deadly nature is the abundant amount of chakra focused to the hands as each strike does not simply penetrate the body or close a tenketsu, but actually closes, and then ruptures both chakra system and internal systems of the body, causing massive trauma.

While several Culling strikes can kill, it is also possible to utilize this technique in order to permanently cripple.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The simplest counter is to dodge, but it is also possible to seal the user's chakra and if such fails then block or deflect the strike. Individuals skilled with their chakra might even be able to disrupt or lessen the damage via manipulation of their chakra internally or along the surface of their skin. Armor will also slightly defend against this technique. This technique, while not incredibly chakra taxing initially becomes tiring if utilized continuously for longer than 30 seconds at a time and while it requires no handseals to activate it takes roughly 5 seconds to focus the chakra for its use. It also strains the user's chakra system to utilize.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Nise hataraki-guchi(<span class=""bb-i"">偽働き口</span> 'False Opening').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei taijutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 0-5.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> While typically requiring no handseals, Nise hataraki-guchi allows its user to focus chakra throughout their chakra system along their tenketsu and over the surface of their flesh. While initially devised as a counter against other users of the Gentle fist, it can also be utilized to diminish the force behind blows, by releasing small focused pulses of chakra upon an attack entering several inches of his person. If 5 hand seals are utilized the area of effect is changed to 1 foot, allowing Shinku to actually direct a bound field of chakra around his body to redirect or alter the trajectory of attacks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Especially fast attacks can strike him despite the presence of this pseudo-barrier, and  while it can defend him to an extent it is nothing like the Hyuga's chief technique: Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven and is in no way an ultimate defense.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Kasai no boshū(<span class=""bb-i"">火災の募集</span> 'Fire's Offering').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 50 meters.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Fire.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 12.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Once the handseals are completed the user of this technique is capable of manipulating externalized fire chakra in such a way that it alters air pressure via differing heat in various areas. This allows the user to essentially manipulate wind despite not having wind affinity and can be utilized for a great variety of purposes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The user's manipulation of wind via the fire affinity will however, never be quite as effective or chakra efficient as someone utilizing the actual wind affinity. Additionally, this technique is subject to the affinity weaknesses of both fire and wind as well as stronger wind users being capable of overpowering anything the user can cook up. Lastly this technique becomes chakra intensive after it is used for a mere 40 seconds.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Konran denryū(<span class=""bb-i"">混乱電流</span> 'Disruption Current').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei ninjutsu/taijutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact-3 feet.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning, Fire, and/or Yang.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 9.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> As he utilizes the handseals necessary for this technique, the user exudes yang and fire chakra into the air, not allowing the latter to ignite, but instead utilizing it in a similar fashion to Kasai no boshū. This preparation creates a 2 meter field of chakra surrounding the user's body, which is primarily composed of yang chakra, but secondarily composed of fire affinity chakra. Once this is in place the user's body additionally becomes infused with lightning chakra increasing their reaction time and overall speed/accuracy.

However, the true purpose of this technique is only viewed when an individual enters the invisible 2 meter field of chakra. Upon doing so the user is capable of slightly altering their trajectory, both in general, and specifically if they choose to focus its use. This is done by manipulating air currents and the distribution of chakra in the victim's body via infusing yang chakra into their body at varied points to throw off their coordination. Additionally, this field of chakra is incredibly conductive, allowing the user to transmit electrical shocks through it to stun or damage their adversary.

The longer an individual remains within the field, the more of the user's yang chakra is infused into their body and once nearly all of it has entered them the final state of this technique is achieved. In this state the user is capable of sending devastating shocks of lightning chakra through the victim's body, crippling their nerves permanently and burning them terribly. If the user chooses to take a more subtle route they can essentially highjack the victim's body by sending specific electrical impulses through their body for a limited period of time (usually 30 seconds to 2 minutes) allowing them control.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The manipulation of the body via electrical impulses is rough at best, not allowing for precise motor control beyond. Additionally, exiting the field for even 10 seconds can help to dispel its effects if you have not been within it for a prolonged period of time. Last of all is the field's elemental weakness which is fire, as it can be ignited. Lightning chakra coursing through the potential victim's body can also nullify some of the damage.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Mōsō(<span class=""bb-i"">妄想</span> 'Delusion').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekki ninjutsu/genjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Physical or chakratic contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Yin.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Variable.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Its handseals depending on the intended complexity of the genjutsu, Mōsō is a technique that allows the user to weave genjutsu via either physical contact or chakratic infusion. Typically this technique is employed by creating a thin veil of yin chakra through which the victim is intended to move. At the point that they move through this invisible veil of chakra they are inducted into the genjutsu.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Doujutsu can easily notice the yin chakra. Additionally, sensor shinobi can detect the chakra, though perhaps not what kind of chakra it is. This technique can be circumvented simply by avoiding contact with the chakra or by breaking from it via spiking your own chakra. Also, dodge.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Hakke hensū tenohira(<span class=""bb-i"">八卦変数手のひら</span> 'Eight Trigrams Variable Palms').
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei taijutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The user is capable of utilizing any amount of strikes to damage the internal chakra body, or block tenketsu utilizing the gentle fist style. The more strikes landed, especially in succession, the more dangerous its effects on the victim and the more thoroughly their chakra is sealed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Self explanatory. If you can't figure this out, then you might want to rethink some things.</div></div></div>"

Weight: 220 lbs

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> From an early age, Uemura observed the customs in his clan, taking in everything he saw. He was arrogant, and proud of his skills he'd acquired with puppetry, making every effort to focus on the make-up of his puppets, declaring they were his pride. He was the apple in his parents' eyes, though he often felt bad for his brother, Kawatake, who he had a deep bond with.

One day, he heard of a mission where the Monzaemon clan was meeting to declare a truce with the Akechi clan in a nearby town. They were declared too dangerous to leave as is, and the clan head saw less casualties if they declared a truce. 

Uemura had grown up believing the Monzaemon was the best, but he'd never seen another clan. He was curious. He decided he was going to sneak along, and he hid inside his father's puppet as he left.

Midway through the journey, his father found him, and chewed him out for being a fool, explaining how dangerous what he had done was. Uemura didn't understand how a meeting to declare a truce could be dangerous. He laughed, and pointed out how strong the Monzaemon were, and how good his puppets were, that his father had helped make him. His father was less than pleased, but let young Uemura come. 

The calling a truce was a ruse, and in its place was an ambush. Uemura saw it as a chance to trounce the other clan, but they were outnumbered.  A battlefield was not a place for a mere boy. His puppets worked out perfectly, but the other clan was expecting to fight puppets, and went straight for the puppeteer, him. His <span class=""bb-i"">perfect</span> puppets were completely useless without a competent puppetteer. As a shinobi came straight at him, he screamed in fear, before another a shadow jumped inbetween. His father saved him from that, telling him to hide, that he was a hinderance if he couldn't defend himself. Uemura noticed several wounds on his father.

In the end, the Monzaemon clan defeated the Akechi clan, and in vengence wiped them from the map. However, many Monzaemon clan shinobi were killed in the ambush, Uemura's father being one of them. Uemura was scared as he was brought home. He realized the worth of a puppet was nothing compared to the puppeteer. The immortal masterpieces of his father meant nothing with the mortal man gone. The puppets were trash, and useless if they weren't controlled by someone so easily killed.

The battle scarred Uemura, making him hate other clans, and making his philosophy about immortality. He focused on puppeteering techniques, not puppets after that.

After Kenshin took control of the clan, Uemura was dismayed to see how he treated other clans. Kenshin was going to destroy the Monzaemon through his integration. Other clans were simply using the truce as a reprieve to reload he believed. He thought of it as spitting on his father's grave, and hated his Uncle.

The thought occurred to him that the only way to stop his Uncle was by force, what ruled the world. He consulted with Kawatake who had since become formidable, and the two learned from eachother's styles. In this sparring, he learned his trick to his supposed immortality. He trusted his brother completely, and led the operation while his brother recruited.

They staged their coup one month later in what would become history. Uemura expected to assault Kenshin by surprise, but ended up dueling him after he'd been detected. Kawatake sealed the perimeter and attacked the central loyalist to the clan. Kenshin, being a man of honor, did not call for backup, and the two dueled, Kenshin swearing at how dishonorable Uemura was, and how he dishonored his father's memory. Uemura simply responded ""You dishonor him.""

Kenshin's power was real however, said to have been the greatest protegee of the Kabuki branch to have existed.. He snuck past Uemura's puppets, and attacked Uemura directly, striking what should have been a fatal blow to him. Uemura did not die, and merely retreated, his puppets enclosing on Kenshin from every direction. Kenshin fought them all, smashing them to pieces, landing an occassional blow on Uemura who seemed to not mind. In the middle of the conflict, Uemura threw a blade with a chakra string at Kenshin, after the Kabuki fashion, catching him offguard, scratching his cheek. It was not deep, but enough with the poison on it.

Kenshin fought like a tiger, destroying all of Uemura's collection, but the poison made him weaker and weaker til he eventually collapsed. Uemura finished him without hesitation. His puppet collection had been destroyed, but he claimed to have been made immortal in it's stead, a better memory than a mere relic. From that battle he recieved the title, The Immortal.

Uemura became the clan head, using his name as a weapon as much as anything else. He declared his three edicts, and has been most silent ever since, knowing mystery too was something people feared. 

When not studying the clan itself, Uemura spends much of his time engaged in research, talking much with Masaru. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Uemura is a person who believes in pragmatism 100%. He does whatever it takes to win, or put his clan in the limelight, and doesn't care for the cost or morals associated. A bit of a recluse, he appears when he feels he's needed. He dislikes flashy displays, and prefers to just get the job done. He's very impatient with things like imcompetence, or people he feels are traitors.

Outside of being clan head, Uemura likes to fancy himself as an artist, separating that side of him from his role as leader. He encourages anyone to develop the talents they have, and appreciates innovation.

Secretly,he feels a slight remorse that someone with Kawatake's character doesn't have more of an impact on the world, so he delegates many of his responsibilities to him, without explaining himself.

Uemura is well known for two main things, the incredible speed of his puppets, and his reported immortality on the battlefield.

His perception, speed, and chakra control are all extremely high. His chakra pool isn't particularly high, neither are his other physical traits. 

His highest trait is his cunning. 

Uemura dislikes prolonged fights, and hates sensor nin, as they ruin the advantage of surprise he brings. Uemura is also weak in taijutsu.

He is also a gifted Ventriloquist

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Kimiko is a fierce woman with a fire in her eyes and a sassy sway to her step. She is abundantly aware of her authority and as any good leader should, uses it responsibly...most of the time. She has the cheer of her father and the passion of her mother both, but her cheerfulness is not always an honest one. With a skill for acting, she has learned to harness her emotions, knowing that if not allowed to express herself, she would explode—and not in any fun fashion much to her displeasure.

Kimiko is a woman of passion, but also one of logic, possessing a strong intuition begotten of her harsh analytic mind—some wrought of training, some which she was simply born with. She is, in some ways manipulative, but at the same time she can be as honest and caring as any mother, loving spouse, caring sister, or close friend. Still, she is not altogether kind and can be quite cruel at times, as she is indeed a woman of many contradictions—as was her mother, and still remains her father. However, above all, she is proud, confident, though with a small amount of the girlish innocence and insecurity that most still hold within themselves no matter their age.

A product of her fierce mentality and confidence, Kimiko is the type of women to smile in the face of adversity and take any obstacle simply as a challenge of her mettle. Still, she is not without flaw, hardly, and this is apparent most in times of great personal distress and highly emotional situations. In particular are the emotions of hatred, love, and by extension, anger or passion. She has difficulty dealing with these emotions and, especially in situations of life or death, this can be a strong negative influence on her decisions.

The blade is forged of chakra, carbon, and iron making it a durable thing indeed. The shaft has also been infused with chakra and its molecular structure altered somewhat, making it just as durable as the rest of the weapon. Beyond this it is more or less a normal instrument of conflict. The cloth that adorns this weapon was once white, but now maintains a crimson appearance, hence the name of the weapon.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> Kaisō nunoji(<span class=""bb-i"">改装布地</span> 'Refurbishing Cloth').

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A special form of cloth weaved by Kimiko herself, infusing chakra into each thread as it was weaved. This cloth has, additionally, been infused with several fuinjutsu sigils, allowing for it to regenerate from any damage by absorbing either natural energy or the user's chakra, the second of which is more effective and faster, and transmuting it into cloth. The fabric retains a soft consistency akin to silk despite being capable of fending off even a blade if used properly. This material is extremely sensitive to chakra and in this specimen's case, Kimiko's chakra, making it more or less impossible for others to utilize it properly. Chakra can be channeled through Kaisō nunoji so as to slightly alter its capabilities and, if one has masterful control, structure. This allows a user, such as Kimiko, to actually inscribe fuinjutsu rapidly upon the surface of the cloth—this is its primary function.

Jack of all Trades – Master of none
Advanced Fuinjutsu/kenjutsu user
Skilled in Genjutsu and Ninjutsu
Medium-large chakra pool(7/10)
Skilled actor and Tactitian
Incredible Chakra control
Mastery of the Sharingan

While Kimiko at first, from the above, appears skilled in just about everything one must keep in mind that because of the broad scope of her skills, she has gained a series of skillsets that work well together, but not so well apart. More or less, the best way to exploit her is to make it so that she is not capable of utilizing some of her skills as eliminating any one of them from her arsenal will weaken her. Similarly, forcing her to utilize any one of her skills on its own will result in a drastic decrease in her combat proficiency. Additionally, it is of note that her chakra control and tactical abilities are primarily from the fact that she possesses the sharingan, rather than from innate ability.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai:</span> Sharingan.

<span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span> Uchiha.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The Sharingan's abilities consist of two parts: the ""Eye of Insight"" (洞察眼, Dōsatsugan) and the ""Eye of Hypnotism"" (催眠眼, Saimingan). The first of the Sharingan's powers is being able to see the flow of chakra. The Sharingan itself gives colour to chakra, allowing the wielder to differentiate them. They are also able to tell if a person is under a genjutsu because the person's chakra flow would be irregular. The Sharingan's second-most prominent ability grants the user an incredible clarity of perception, allowing them to easily recognize genjutsu and different forms of chakra, though not to the same extent as the Byakugan. This also allows the user to pick up on subtle details, enabling them to read lip movements or mimic something like pencil movements. As the Sharingan evolves, gaining more tomoe, this ability extends to being able to track fast-moving objects before finally giving some amount of predictive capabilities to the user, allowing them to see the image of an attacker's next move from the slightest muscle tension in their body and counter-attack or dodge without any wasted movement. However, even though the user may be able to see an attack or know it is coming, their body may not always have time to react.

The Sharingan's third and most well-known ability is that it grants the user the ability to copy almost any technique that he or she witnesses, apart from other kekkei genkai techniques. The user can memorise ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu with near-perfect accuracy, allowing the user to use the techniques as their own, or even modify them to create their own new techniques. In order to reproduce a copied technique, however, one must have the necessary skill or ability to perform them. In addition to physical skill and kekkei genkai techniques, the Sharingan cannot reproduce techniques dependent on other factors, such as summons that the user has not signed a contract with.

The Sharingan's final commonly-used ability is capable of inducing a unique brand of hypnosis that involves suggesting actions and thoughts to the opponent through genjutsu cast by simple eye contact between both parties. More advanced Sharingan users can take the hypnosis ability even further to the point where a powerful summon or even a tailed beast may be controlled. The hypnotic ability coupled with the other aspects of the Sharingan can make the user appear as if they can ""see the future"". First, the user must perfectly mimic every move their opponent makes and possibly their thoughts and words through careful observation. Then, they suggest an action to the opponent such as hand seals for a technique that the opponent and Sharingan user already know and copy that. With these things done, the user can complete the action even before the opponent does, possibly using the Sharingan's genjutsu to confuse or delay them. As with other genjutsu, genjutsu cast by the Sharingan are capable of putting an opponent to sleep, inducing paralysis, replaying memories to someone else via genjutsu, or creating various illusions to deceive someone. The potency of the Sharingan's illusion is dependent on the user's knowledge and skill with implementing genjutsu.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Summoning:_Lightning_Flash_Blade_Creation"">Kuchiyose: Raikō Kenka(Summoning: Lightning Flash Blade Creation):</a> Linked to all weaponry and the palms of the user's hands in this case. The sealing formula has been slighly altered to allow activation via chakra.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Kyūsokuna kon'yaku(<sub>急速な婚約</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Rapid Engagement'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Either Yin or none at all.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A tricky technique, Kyūsokuna kon'yaku is essentially utilized to make it seem as if an Uchiha has not activated their sharingan. This is done by flowing chakra towards the eyes and allowing it to build up in small bunches along the way so it enters the eye in increments, rather than as a steady stream. This, as well as the intention to activate their eyes, causes the eyes to <span class=""bb-i"">flicker</span> or, if observed closely, activate and deactivate at such high sped that the doujutsu is never actually seen unless viewed by a specialized technique or another doujutsu. If utilized with yin affinity chakra, the user is capable of initiating powerful, or subtle, genjutsu upon anyone looking at their eyes even in a moment where the sharingan is not activated.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Doujutsu can discern that this technique is being utilized. Additionally, simply not looking at the Uchiha's eyes will allow someone to avoid getting caught in a genjutsu. This technique is not at all chakra taxing, but requires intense focus to maintain for long periods of time.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Katei jidō-ka no jutsu(<sub>過程自動化の術</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Process Automation Technique'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The activation of this technique, like many of Kimiko's seals, is done through flowing the user's chakra through the incription. In Kimiko's sake this <a href=""#"">inscription</a> is in the form of a tattoo placed in the center of her back over her spine. Once activated via the above method the user can mould up to three jutsu into the seal at a time. Once a jutsu is moulded and placed within the seal, via the chakra entering it, the seal will allow the user to essentially <span class=""bb-i"">recycle</span> the technique without handseals or chakra moulding. This is achieved by the seal automating the aforementioned processes, hence its name, thus allowing techniques to be used immediately rather than needing preparation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique is not entirely instantaneous, though it works faster or slower depending on the rank and complexity of the technique in question. Additionally, the more techniques are put into the seal the longer it will take to prepare one technique. Lastly, do note that the techniques will still cost the user chakra as they normally would. E and D ranked techniques are essentially instantaneous, whereas most C ranked and simple B ranked techniques take a second or two to activate. Complicated B rank techniques and A ranked techniques take 3-4 seconds and extremely complex A rank techniques take 5-6. S ranked techniques can be stored, but only one can be held in the seal at any given time and it can only be accompanied by a single low complexity C rank jutsu at best. A S ranked technique will typically take 3 seconds to activate if it is not stored with another, though it if another technique is stored it will take 7-10 seconds depending on complexity.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fuin renketsu(<sub>封印連結</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Seal Linking'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Used in most barrier techniques this allows the user to link one seal to another and even transmit overlaid seals from between the links. Additionally the user can create an area-of-effect by linking 2 or more seals. This can also be used to link 2 seals with chakra within and thus make a path for things -like vibrations- to travel through. This seal is inscribed on her palms and the bottoms of her feet, allowing her to place them simply by making contact with an object and instigating a slight influx of chakra into the seal.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The seal can be easily removed by damaging what it is on. She must make contact with either her body or her specialized tools to implement this seal onto a surface. The seal has the normal weakness of typical fuuinjutsu.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Yasashī shidō(<sub>優しい指導</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Gentle Guidance'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Shape-manipulation ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Variable.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This technique simply allows the user to gently guide their respective affinities by simply manipulating the chakra that makes them up.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Seal their ability to manipulate chakra and the user becomes incapable of using this technique.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Ten no homuramai(<sub>天の炎舞</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Heaven flame dance'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Nintaijutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning, Wind and fire.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 7.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> After completing the necessary handseals the user channels lightning chakra throughout the body to amplify the user's reaction and physical speed. Once this is done, unlit fire chakra cloaks the body, particularly the lower body, from tail bone down. While the lightning amplifies her speed, the unlit fire chakra creates high pressure systems around her body, as well as releasing heat, and thus propulsion, in the opposite direction of Kimiko's movement. Kimiko can, using this combination, briefly ignite her fire chakra in bursts to send her to even greater speeds. She can utilize the pressure systems directly around her body to smooth out her bursts of movement and alter her trajectory smoothly. The speed that this allows is akin to the lightning release armor, in addition to  small amount of speed, but minus a bit of its reaction time. The user may choose to ignore the cloak of fire, augmenting their blows with fire, or allowing them to send of blasts of flame.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Due to the user being surrounded by both wind and fire chakra, in addition to the lightning running through them, they are particularly sensitive to the water affinity technique. Beyond this they can still be predicted by doujutsu, though it becomes somewhat difficult for such to do so thus revealing that the peak of this technique is rather considerable.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Keiro soshi-ten(<sub>経路阻止点</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Pathway Blocking Point'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 4.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> An interesting technique, Keiro soshi-ten effectively acts like a strike from the gentle fist style in that once applied it blocks several of the victim's tenketsu. Tenketsu covered by the seal are all blocked as if by a blood clot, causing chakra to build up at these <span class=""bb-i"">dams</span>. After a minute or two pass, depending on how much chakra the victim attempts to utilize, the user's chakra system will reach its limit and the blocked paths will rupture. This causes the victim not only to lose large amounts of chakra, but to experience crippling pain in the localized area of the technique. It may also cause muscles to spasm as chakra floods into them beyond the user's control. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The seal will break after a certain amount of chakra has built up as the pressure acts about the same as overwhelming the seal with chakra. If the seal is damaged or removed it's effects are nullified. This seal requires some of the user's chakra to be stored within the seal in addition to the effort needed to create the seal. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Zōgen(<sub>増減</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Fluctuation'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By studying and modifying the <a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Five_Elements_Seal"">Gogyo Fuin</a>, Kimiko has developed a technique that utilizes the concept of disrupting other seals and by extension chakra. Unlike the Gogyo Fuin, this technique disrupts chakra even if there are no other seals present on the victim. When it is placed on an individual it will impede the movement of chakra by disrupting the chakra pathways and causing them to fluctuate randomly. This makes it twice as difficult to utilize ninjutsu or to generally focus and control chakra. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> If the seal is damaged it will be rendered useless. Additionally it can be removed by the Gogyo Kaiin. The seal can be disrupted by firing chakra into the seal from the outside or focusing it in the seal till it breaks. Breaking this seal by focusing chakra and overloading it is considerably difficult and will waste chakra due to the fact that the fluctuations make it hard to focus and direct chakra. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Kaisō sa reta setsuzoku(<sub>改装された接続</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Refurbished connection'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu/Barrier Ninjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 8.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By placing two seals, via her chakra, on two pieces of her specialized cloth and then ripping the cloth in half to separate the two, Kimiko can create a unique construct. The seals on these cloth, when activated, cause the cloth to become rigid and reconnect via chakra. These can be utilized to block attacks, set traps, or cut if someone is caught between the pieces of cloth when the chakra rushes from each to reconnect. Lastly, Kimiko can position pieces of cloth on someone's body, flattening them, allowing the chakra to wrap around them and bind them. Additionally, this technique can be utilized to cut the cloth into the shape of weapons, and then make them rigid utilizing chakra, thus making it an effective weapon.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Damage the seal on the cloth or incinerate the cloth.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Hatoriau(<sub>刃取り合う</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Blade Scramble'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu/kenjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 10.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> After utilizing the necessary handseals the seals on Kimiko's palms are altered slightly. Once this is done she can freely, and with blinding speed, switch Yogoshi junrei-sha between hands almost instantaneously. This allows her to almost wield her single weapon as if she had two, allowing her to attack in rapid and incredibly quick ways one after another. It should be noted that the user can also use this technique to change the position of the weapon in their hand.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Damage the seals or disarm her.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Sunpō sara-dai(<sub>寸法更代</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Dimension Shift'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei Genjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 15.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A technique requiring plenty of handseals due to its complex nature, this genjutsu works by first mimicking the surrounding environment of the user, and once cast, the victim as well, and then super-imposing a near identical illusion over it, hiding reality from view by the thinnest shift of perception. However, due to the subtle nature of this technique it is incredibly difficult to detect even for doujutsu holders as it even mimicks the status of chakra systems and the like in reality, making discernment via that method difficult. This technique, allegedly, can only be broken via sheer strength of will. Actions taken in the genjutsu by the victim are carried out in reality, and mimicked simultaneously in the illusion via their mind. If eye contact is made she can skip the slight wavering that this genjutsu typically causes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The user is incapable of fast movement during the use of this technique, but can indeed move. Additionally the technique is chakra taxing, taking more chakra the longer it is active. When initially activated, the surroundings of the victim will briefly <span class=""bb-i"">waver</span> as if there is gas in the air, or a sufficient heat change.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Tengoku-jigoku mai - junrei-sha gisō(<sub>天国 - 地獄舞 - 巡礼者偽装</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Heaven-hell dance - Pilgrim Impersonation'</span>).
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Kekkei Ninjutsu/Fuinjutsu/Kenjutsu.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-S.
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 8 meter radius.
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Fire, Wind and/or Lightning
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 2-4-6-8-12.
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Utilizing Yogoshi junrei-sha, Kimiko channels chakra throughout its form, imbuing the cloth about its shaft each with a single modified Fūka Hōin fuinjutsu. This is done within 3 seconds per seal, taking a total of 9 seconds for all three. Once it is utilized she channels chakra through each of the free hanging clothes at the base of the shaft. Using the sharingan she moulds three different chakras at once, conducting lightning into one scarf, wind into another, and fire into the third. A varied amount of chakra can be sent into these clothes depending on the handseals utilized. If only 2, each cloth will gain a D rank amount of elemental chakra; if 4 it will gain C rank amounts; if 6 it will gain B rank amounts; if 8 it will gain A rank amounts; and finally if 12 it will gain S rank amounts of chakra.

Once the chakra is implemented Kimiko infuses the first of Fūka Hōin with <a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Fire_Release:_Running_Fire"">Katon: Hibashiri(Fire Release: Running Fire)</a> and a fire focused Yasashī shidō--the other two are then infused with a wind and lightning focused Yasashī shidō. This completes the technique's preparation, though most of these steps can be done in the midst of battle and one at a time if necessary. Once the preparations have been completed Kimiko will typically launch into close quarters combat, first releasing running fire in a larger radius than normal, the ring of fire's height will be higher the more chakra is imputted into the technique. Its peak height is 20 meters where it actually curves and twists inwards into a cone-like shape. As Kimiko continues combat, she releases the second technique, typically lightning, which tends to start as static at its weakest, but will be full on stunning lightning at its strongest. This lightning will whirl around inside of the area, either directed by Kimiko, or randomly sparking about. The final technique is eventually released causing the flames to roar to new strengths, and at this point Kimiko's body is coated with a layer of protective chakra.

Kimiko will attempt to land a final volley of strikes with her weapon, either for direct cutting action, or after retreating behind the flames. If she retreats a smoke bomb will be thrown down, obscuring the victims sight as she strikes from multiple directions in rapid succession with Yogoshi. The techniques that had been released become linked to the movement of Yogoshi via the scarves, causing them to mimic the movements. The end result is typically a carbonized, electrocuded, and terribly eviscerated corpse at its best. At its weakest the technique will leave minor burns, an electrical stun effect, and the cuts from wind and Kimiko's blade.


<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique, executed at S rank and if it is allowed to reach its final state is effectively impossible to block, dodge, or deflect due to the amount of attacks being sent at the user and their elemental variety. However, should someone disrupt the technique before it has been fully executed/prepared they can spare themselves from its final results entirely, simultaneously depriving Kimiko of a large quantity of her chakra.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Additional Appearance Details:</span></span> Shikashi is around 6’2” and weighs 150 pounds.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span> Nara Shikayo is the brother of Nara Shikaro, the head of the Nara clan. Shikayo had a deep rivalry with his brother, Shikaro, and they both catered to their father’s every whim in order to become clan head; in the end, Shikaro won. Shikayo fell in love with a simple girl who lived in a nearby village and went by the name of Kawaguchi Hana. They married soon after meeting and were eager to start a family.  When Hana was pregnant, they were overjoyed, but it also furthered Shikayo’s hatred of his brother, knowing that his son would most likely not inherit the Head of the clan. A month after Shikayo’s son, Shikashi, was born, Sora had given the news that she was pregnant. On May 27th, Shikako was born in the Nara Compound to Shikaro and Sora. 
Growing up, Shikashi and Shikako were continuously pitted against each other due to their fathers’ rivalry. Shikaro and Shikayo attempted to raise their children to be the best of the clan’s kids, prodigies. Despite their dislike, however, Shikashi and Shikako were close and could be considered best friends. It became clear that Shikako had a penchant for the medicine that the Nara clan made when she was five. Shikayo, angry at Shikako’s success, began to increase Shikashi’s lessons and even taught him advanced jutsu before his time. Because of his father’s harshness, Shikashi developed jealousy of Shikako and their friendship was broken. Around the time that the children were supposed to learn the shinobi arts more extensively, it was discovered that Shikako lacked severely in chakra control and could only perform the weakest form of Nara’s renowned shadow techniques. Shikako then began to envy Shikashi who was extraordinary in chakra control and strategies. With Shikashi’s promise, many of the clan thought that Shikashi should become clan head instead of Shikako. The moment that Shikako heard of this from her father was the moment that marked Shikashi’s and Shikako’s inherited rivalry. 
Shikashi quickly rose in ranks and, within no time, became a jounin. His father was proud and with the speculation that Shikashi should be the one to become Head of the Clan, everything seemed to be going well for him. However, Shikashi continues to hold animosity towards Shikako despite having everything and she having nothing. It confuses him to no end, but the truth of the matter is: her dad loves her more than his dad loves him. And it bothers him greatly. Shikayo sees Shikashi as just another tool to have sway in the Nara Clan and with his father rising high in the political rankings, he doesn’t have time for Shikashi anymore. Not to mention that most people his age feel daunted to talk to him and so he feels all alone. Instead of reconciling with his long-lost cousin, he continues to bury himself a ditch of hatred, insecurity, and fear.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Shikashi is neither serious nor much of a joker. He isn’t quiet nor is he that talkative. One thing can be said about Shikashi, though: his arrogance knows no bounds. Of course, due to deep issues pulsing through his memories, the arrogance is more of a front than anything, but he does fall victim to his own lies. He has told himself that he is the best so many times, has told others that he is the best so many times, that he believes it…unless it is late at night and he can’t sleep. Shikashi is well-mannered unless it comes to his cousin, and when she is around, he will let his tongue whip out like a sword, cutting Shikako with his words. Shikashi is an easily jealous fellow and hates it when others occupy the time of people precious to him: i.e. his dad. The Nara genius does have his good points though: mainly, he is focused and determined to do his best when on a mission and always looks after his teammates.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai/Hiden/Kekkei Tota:</span> Shadow Manipulation

<span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span> Nara

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The use of the shadows to paralyze, control, or kill the target.

=========================================
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Techniques:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Canon Jutsu</span>
<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Imitation_Technique"">Kageshibari no Jutsu</a>: The use of the user’s shadow which stresses across any surface, even water, and attaches itself to the shadow of the target; from there on the target is paralyzed and imitates the user’s movements. However, it uses up chakra, demands chakra control, and is limited on a certain distance depending on the user’s limits.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Clutch_Technique"">Kagezukami no Jutsu</a>: The user materializes their shadow and increases its power, becoming like steel. The user then captures the target’s shadow and forcibly moves them about. The techniques strength is proportionate to the chakra put into it.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Sewing_Technique"">Kage Nui no Jutsu</a>: Uses materialized shadows to attack and bind. The user changes the shape of their shadow into several sharp needles and controls each separately. They can then attack several targets simultaneously and at the same time snatch away their ability to move by sewing them stuck with the shadow threads.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Gathering_Technique"">Kageyose no Jutsu</a>: This technique takes the user’s own shadow and transforms and stretches it into countless thin tentacles, which are then used to grab objects and pull them in.

<a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow%E2%80%93Neck_Binding_Technique"">Kage-Kubishibari no Jutsu</a>:The shadows are given physical power and then are used to attack body parts by turning the shadow slender and to bind the opponent’s body in order to restrain them. It is commonly used for strangulation. The smaller the distance, the greater the power. It should be used quickly as it costs a lot of chakra.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Mirai loves to fight. She loves the exhilarating rush that comes when she doesn’t know whether or not she can win. This surge of adrenaline has lead her since she was just a young girl. Mirai doesn’t really have any allegiances past her own moral compass, which is slightly grey. Outside of battle Mirai typically acts immaturely, but not on purpose. Due to the fact that she was raised by the Monkeys of Saru Jungle she isn’t completely accustomed to the proper way of doing things, but she tries to get it right. In battle Mirai typically is either bored or entertained. She very rarely takes a fight all that serious commonly wanting to fight at full strength with whatever enemy she may be up against at the time. Do to her great rapport with the Monkeys, most summons will know of her as one of their sages.

Mirai has a very large chakra pool
Mirai, having been raised by the Monkeys of the Saru jungle located just off the coast of the Land of Water’s ocean, is extremely agile in the trees and can maintain complete orientation and stability even while performing multiple flips and acrobatic feats.
She has spent a great deal of time training using only one sense at a time: sight, sound, smell and touch.
Mirai is considered a jack of all trades, though she is obviously a master in none.
One of Mirai’s main weaknesses is her lack of ability outside of sage mode.

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom Jutsu</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Ranbu (Sage Art: Wild Dance)
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Senjutsu, Bukijutsu  
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close - Mid
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Mirai leaps around using her enhanced agility and reflexes to spread her titanium wire around the immediate area, unspooling it with both hands. After it has been adequately spread around the area, Mirai can use it to maneuver the environment easily, it resembling a jungle, while also impeding the opponent. By adding chakra to the wire, Mirai can alter how sharp the wires are, further impeding their movement. If the wires aren’t hung on anything, Mirai can utilize the flint in her mouth to cause the wires to catch fire, titanium causing the fire to be incredible hot.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> It requires some sort of foliage to set up, that or something else to hang the wires off of otherwise they are just on the ground, the technique is still usable just not to swing around on, obviously. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Kongōnyoi Hifu (Sage Art: Adamantine Skin) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Senjutsu, Ninjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact 
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span>N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Mirai by placing one hand on a body part can transform that limb or body part, replacing the skin with adamantine a substance as hard as diamond with incredible destructive power. She still feels pain, but she is able to use it to survive what would be fatal blows and deal incredible amounts of damage to an opponent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>This technique requires Mirai to be still while using it and slows down her physical movements slightly with the affected limbs.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Shizen Fukinkō (Sage Art: Natural Misbalance) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Senjutsu, Taijutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span>N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Clap hands together
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Upon clapping her hands together Mirai can use her natural energy to a completely different effect. In a manner similar to Chakra Enhanced Strength, Mirai focuses natural energy into a limb that will come in contact with the enemy. She uses this to misbalance the enemies natural energy, turning the body part that she strikes and the muscles underneath it to stone, rendering a limb unusable or even killing an opponent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>Avoid at all costs.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Saru Kumite (Sage Art: Monkey Kata)
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span>Senjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span>B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Close 
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This technique uses a thick cloud of natural energy to take almost a photograph of what the user looks like at the moment of activation. Anyone without thorough training in Natural Energy will be unable to see Mirai for two seconds, she will usually follow this up with some sort of Taijutsu combo or the beginning of the technique.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Being hit during this technique will most certainly knock her out of sage mode do to the high amount of concentration it requires.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Kuchiyose Sōran (Sage Art: Summoning Mayhem)   
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Senjutsu, Fuinjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Mid-Close
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3, blood
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Mirai will form several seals, either by dragging her feet while she is fighting to draw lines in the ground, with her Senpō Ranbu or through Shikoku Fūin. After drawing each seal Mirai will be able to place her palm onto any of the seals to summon her personal summon Rōen. The other seals can, from there on, be used to transport either Rōen or Mirai to one of the other ones. The only trick is to transport Rōen, Mirai must use the seal and vice versa. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>This technique requires a lot of preparation and also requires both users to be aware of the technique.

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Toroi no Uma (Sage Art: Trojan Horse)
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu, Senjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> All
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Clone Seal
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Appearing for all intents and purposes like a shadow clone, Mirai creates a clone comprised of almost all natural energy. Upon dispersal, like the lightning shadow clone the clone’s natural energy will attach onto the nearest opponent whom cannot use natural energy within a few feet and attempt to overload their body with natural energy, turning them into a statue. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This effect can be adverted if the opponent has enough knowledge of natural energy to circumvent the effect, otherwise staying away from the clone will do. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Kumo Aruku (Sage Art: Cloud Walk) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Senjutsu, Ninjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> All
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Futon
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 4
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span>Mirai uses natural energy to condense evaporated water and form a cloud and solidifies that cloud with chakra, making it dense enough to stand on and block shuriken and kunai. This cloud can fly at a speed slightly faster than Izumi can run and attain an altitude of just overtop the clouds.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>This is strictly a supplementary technique

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Saru wa Miru Saru ga Yaru (Sage Art: Monkey See, Monkey Do) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu, Senjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> One Target
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span>  2
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Once the handseals are performed, Mirai must attain physical contact with the target. Once this is accomplished the technique may be activated by once again performing the two handseals. The seal activates, causing the opponent to see through the eyes of the user and vice versa. This causes great confusion to those who choose to still use their eyes. With Mirai’s training without eyesight however, she may use this technique to gain the upper hand on an opponent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>Don’t allow the seal to exist. 

====================

<span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Senpō: Mizaru, Kikazaru, Iwazaru (Sage Art: See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Genjutsu, Senjutsu
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A
<span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> One Target
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A
<span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3, Senpō: Saru wa Miru Saru ga Yaru, must be active. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This technique is one of Mirai’s greatest, yet most taxing assets. As it is powered by Senjutsu, it cannot be seen through with a Dojutsu. Once the Senpō: Saru wa Miru Saru ga Yaru seal has been used on an enemy, Mirai can perform 3 more handseals to enhance the technique even further turning the seal into the Senpō: Mizaru, Kikazaru, Iwazaru seal resembling three monkeys, one shielding their eyes, one shielding their ears and one shielding their mouth. Mirai can then activate each seal either one at a time or all at the same time to limit the use of the sense each seal represents. For example, using one seal will take up about a quarter of Mirai’s chakra but will disallow the opponent’s sight. Using two seals will take up half of Mirai’s chakra and disallow sight and sound. Using three seals will take up three quarters of Mirai’s chakra and disallow sight sound and speech. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span>This can only be used on one target at a time and is very chakra consuming, thusly more than one opponent being present will render this technique too much of a risk to use. It also requires a great deal of set up involving a whole technique to be used first, which in itself requires physical contact.

It was night, and there were three white orbs which loomed over the desert compound of the Monzaemon clan. One was the moon, but the other two belonged to a man that at current time hovered almost a mile above the compound, his form invisible via the camouflage technique, his chakra virtually indistinguishable from the natural energy of the world around him, barely even notable as a bird, no, an insect flying in the night sky.

<span class=""bb-i"">Just as he had planned,</span> he repeated to himself mentally, <span class=""bb-i"">just as he planned, do just as was planned.</span>

He remembered well what the man's instructions had been:

<span class=""bb-i"">""Stay Hidden, I will fascilitate your movements. Only kill one, then leave.

Make it brutal. Make it...unforgettable.""</span>

Finally, having heard no alarms and seen little movement, he slowly drifted down towards the ground, his face covered by the shadows of his hood and, within it, the mask of some wild demon with the motif of a black fox.

He landed at the entrance to the caverns, which lay in the side of a cliff--luckily, he could fly. Still invisible, he slowly waltzed past the guards, who had no idea he was there at all.

Smiling beneath his mask, the mercenary continued to make his way through the caverns, knowing exactly where the center of the compound was via his own methods. It had been incredibly easy to figure it out. He could feel the adrenaline and excitement beginning to boil his blood, and he loved it.

Eventually reaching the center of their compound, having slipped past all defenses with ease gained from many assignments, he waited. Briefly his eyes closed, then opened wider as if to allow more light into them. Taking in a deep breath he gathered his chakra, then flowed it to his hands and channeled it throughout his body, enhancing his senses and movements drastically. He then silently moved into what he ordained to be a form of lab. Various plants and liquids were everywhere, all neatly in vials, or even vats at times, some upon shelves waiting for use. He exuded a small amount of chakra over the entrance and weaved a light sight and touch induced genjutsu. If someone were to look at the entrance they would see the lab untouched. If they were to walk through the field of chakra they would fall unconscious. While he was no genjutsu master he had enough of an understanding of the art for such a simple technique.

Having that in place, he flicked his wrist, exuding a small amount of fire chakra into his hand, which proceeded to flout, cushioned by wind.

Preforming several handseals he released a light breeze of wind chakra throughout the room and then unleashed the flame, turning around and walking through the chakra barrier, unaffected by the jutsu it contained. The barrier would keep all sound within it as well, in addition to the fire that was now burning down almost the entire poison storage of the Monzaemon clan.

Smiling he turned and headed for the nearest building and entered it. There lay, comfortably in bed, a sleeping shinobi, who would soon find himself quite maimed, not to mention dead.

It took the mercenary several minutes to complete his work, but when he was done the room was covered in blood and entrails. Only the head was intact and it was placed on a table, which he had position several feet from the doorway. The first one to walk in would know exactly what had transpired, or at least that his clansman was dead.

He then departed, walking back out the way he had come after which he flew up to the top of the cliff where he located a seal hidden beneath a layer of dirt. Activating it with his chakra, the mercenary vanished...and was gone. Not that anyone knew he had ever been there in the first place.

Poor them.
<div class=""bb-center"">- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</div>

Uemura woke with a start. He felt something very wrong that night, and with his impatient personality, he immediately jumped out of bed. 

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#78866b"">""Whatever this is, it had better be important.""</font></span>

He couldn't put his finger on it, but something was wrong with the night. Taking only a moment to <span class=""bb-i"">'insure his immortality'</span>, he ran from his secured bedroom into the cave halls of his clan. 

As he continued, he saw a trickle of blood at the border of one of the doors. Normally, he didn't like interacting personally, but something was very wrong. He kicked open the door, and saw a grisly sight. He examed the scene for a matter of moments before he concluded it wasn't someone from his clan who had committed it.  If it had been a member of his clan, the body would barely be touched.... but this?  

It took longer to identify the man than it did that it wasn't from the clan, Eiki Sanada, a protegee of the Bunraku branch.

The more troubling part was that it was recent, but he didn't hear anything in the echoing chambers of the cave.... had he come in, murdered Eiki and ran out? 

He turned quickly, finding a member of his clan nearby in awe, who was shocked to his reclusive leader, he almost didn't recognize him. Uemura grabbed him by the collar.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#78866b"">""Start assembling the clan now. If anyone objects, they're free to become one of Masaru's experiments.""</font></span>

Anger coursed through his voice, though his face showed very little. Rare events had happened. Uemura never called clan assembles, he delgated almost all of it to his brother Kawatake.

He muttered to himself.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#78866b"">""Someone has attacked the clan. They've sent a very clear message. They want war... they shall have it.""</font></span>
<div class=""bb-center"">- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</div>

Entering their meeting place, the mercenary glanced around for a moment before his eyes settled on the only other soul in the room. He waited for his words to speak, as the fellow was paying him, not to mention he was one of the few he admitted he had some respect for--a rare thing.

A voice attended as the assassin returned, in the darkness sitting in a chair holding a wine glass.

""I'm assuming another success, Viper? Was there as much trouble with this one as there was with the Tatasuko Clan?"" 

The Viper smiled slightly, <span class=""bb-b"">""Hardly, I destroyed their poison stores and mutilated one of theirs, just as you suggested and without being detected. Those damn Tatasuko are something else though. Good thing you didn't hire some unattentive idiot.""</span> He smirked, it had been a fun night.

""Strong, but small. Still, I see them as a powerplayer, while no-one else might. Monzaemon, Tatasuko, Uchiha, we've got all the makings of a war, and I stand to profit.""

The sponsor of the assassin through a key to the assassin behing him.

""Your pay's in the regular place, I've already had it arranged. The clans are way to peaceful for my taste. They don't see eachother as a threat yet. By the time I'm done, they will name the era after the wars. The ninjas will be too weak from attacking eachother to respond to <span class=""bb-i"">it</span>.""

He finished the glass, and flicked his wrist to dismiss Viper.

He smiled, <span class=""bb-b"">""I look forward to that day,""</span> he bowed his head then turned and walked out. There was nothing more to do tonight, but the wheels had been set in motion, and there was no stopping them now.

War was coming.</div>"

""Hato!"" A young Uchiha called madly while running up to him. The boy's hair was plated with blood by his left ear, his face bruised by a strong punch. 

Hato leaned off a tree with haste and got to his feet. ""What's the problem, Rin?"" 

""My father is in a brawl again..."" He bent over to catch his breath. ""I tried to calm him down but he's not listening. Please help.""

""I'm heading off. You stay and rest. When you wake, everything will be okay."" Hato nodded firmly before placing a reassuring hand on the boy's shoulder. 

Dashing through the clan he found his way to the conflict, several Uchihas were caught up in the madness, the chaos was something akin to a massacre, perhaps its distant cousin. Hato raised a brow as he walked from between the ruined tents and scorched lumber. They were all attacking it each other with serious intent. 

<span class=""bb-i"">What the Sage had Rin's father done?</span>

The conflict was out of hand, so much in fact that killing blows were being thrown. With a quick shushin, he appeared between two kunai slashes, Shinkyo's sheathe blocked the first and a well placed wrist stopped the ascent of the other. The two men backed off once they realized the interference. 

""White Wing...""

""Hato! out of the way!""

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Land of Rain and Land of Wind Border, Sandy Mesa Area - Morning</span></div>

Ito had always been a morning person. He woke up at the crack of dawn and slept extremely lightly, even for a ninja. It was raining heavily, but the sun glared through, resulting in a shimmering rainbow and bright haze. However Ito didn't have time to meditate upon the beauty of nature.

A ninja from the land of the wind struck was unleashing a hail of blows against Ito using a blade cloaked in wind style chakra, a jutsu he had been caught off guard by before. However having ascertained the reach of the technique Ito was able to float just outside of it, being caught only by the spray of rain it created. He calmly waited for his opponent to overextend, and place himself off balance.This opportunity came as his opponent made an aggressive lunging strike. Ito slid past the attack, as fluid as water, and into extreme close range and then unleashed hell. First a solid blow to the jaw connected with his opponent, spinning him further off balance. This blow was followed almost instantaneously by a water shotgun technique from his other hand, that tore holes in the unfortunate enemy. Ito finished him off without hesitating by drawing and decapitating the staggered opponent in a single motion, using the Shibuki's razor sharp cutting edge. 

Lately there had been an increase in this kind of fighting for Ito. An increase in the number of burgeoning clans meant more competition. More competition meant more desperation and when desperation set in morals went out the window. As such many of the new ninja clans were turning to bandit activities to 'supplement' their income. It made travelling more dangerous for most but so far most of the clans who had to resort to this behaviour were the weaker ones who were being pushed out of business. Not the opponents Ito was looking for. 

Ito was quickly growing bored of these encounters. He didn't understand why the seven swordsmen weren't using their name to its full extent. A company with their reputation should be able to quickly gain political and economic influence through organised activity on the battlefield. However the nomadic nature of many of the members, and the lack of the binding influence of the clan meant it was difficult for them to mobilise or coordinate. This problem wasn't helped by the fact they didn't have a 'leader', or any infrastructure at all to speak of. They were just good at fighting and perhaps little else. 

Still a hunger for fighting with his life on the line had been growing, deep and hot in Ito's stomach. He set out looking for Rachi, his current travelling companion. Rachi's sellsword nature would hopefully mean that he's be game for hunting bigger prey.</div>"

Tataruki's voice seemed playful and inviting. Taken out of the current context, one would suspect she was casually talking to a friend about any pointless topic, and not to an accused traitor. Something about the subtext, the particular emphasis she put made her words carry the slightest bit of an intimidation factor.

The man across from her shook his head, not willing to talk. Whether his silence was caused by nerves, fear or simply unwillingness to obey, Hanyou had been communicating solely by nods or shakes of the head, which was beginning to wear down Tataruki's patience.

""<font color=""#ef482e"">Don't be so difficult to work with. You're only going to make things worse for yourself.</font>""

Hanyou just shook his head even more fiercely, effectively answering 'no' to Tataruki's question regarding his accusation.

""<font color=""#ef482e"">Is that so?</font>"" Tataruki seemed disappointed in his answer, ""<font color=""#ef482e"">Then, I guess, all the accounts of people catching you in the act are false? Is that what you're saying?</font>""

Tataruki pulled out a file from under her; she had been sitting on it. As she opened it up, she revealed countless of accusations and pieces of evidence from a variety of sources. The quantity of the evidence was readily apparent; now, whether all of the evidence was veritable was another thing. Regardless, the file did it's trick and the man broke.

""OKAY!"" he cried out, exasperated and cornered, ""I did it! I tried! But I did it as an act of vengeance! A payback! Those two blind, ignorant brothers that we call our leaders are fools! They are leading our clan down a dark path, saturated in blood. With them as our superiors, the Monzaemon clan will never know peace; we will fall apart!""

Tears of passion began to roll down the man's visage, as his eyes were colored red in irritation and his face took on a burnt-red hue. 

""<font color=""#ef482e"">Well, on the bright side, I can see you're finally telling the truth,</font>"" Tatruki began, giggling a bit, ""<font color=""#ef482e"">Unfortunately for you, that was the wrong answer.</font>""

And with that, Tataruki waltzed out of the room, allowing two other shinobi to apprehend and subdue the man. He would be executed on the count of treason, and Tataruki would be doing the execution. Fortunately for him, executions only ever happened in the mornings, so he had to whole night to contemplate his life and death.

As Tataruki made her way out of the discipline center, having conducted her last session of the day, she found herself meandering the clan territory instead of heading straight home. Tataruki rather enjoyed strolling in the night. The stars were always a marvel to her, being so bright and enthralling but at the same time, so far. Hitomo had been waiting outside the discipline center for her, and as soon as she appeared from the building, the fox walked alongside the kunoichi.

While she was walking, she heard a call from one of Uemura's assistants, ordering everyone to rally. Curious as to what they were being called for, Tataruki glided over to where everyone was meeting. As Tataruki neared and the crowd increased, she instinctively called Hitomo into her arms, cradling the fox to keep it from being overwhelmed by the mass of people. She wondered what could be going on, hearing whispers and gossip that were foreboding and ominous.</div>"

Monzaemon Clan Meeting Hall - Night</span></span></div>


As the ranks of the Monzaemon swelled in the meeting hall, none would know that Skall was among them. His face lightened with makeup and his clothing entirely neutral, he took on the persona of one of the low ranking ninja that had died some days ago. Although not killed by Skall, he had been the only one to witness the death of the sluggish and undisciplined shinobi with an indifference that practically incriminated him.

It was through the eyes of these nobodies that Skall lived in the open, as none here save for the clan heads knew of his existence let alone his face. 

Skall moved through the room a half-step at a time, never moving with enough purpose that anyone would acknowledge him. Sure, there was a glance here and there and even moments where someone would wholly make eye contact with him but there was never an exchange of words. He was like a grain of sand in the desert, a coyote hiding in the ranks of wolves.

The purpose of this meeting was already known to Skall. There was little that happened within these walls that he didn't know about at least through whispers. Direct orders from Uemura would prevent him from acting on anything as of yet and he would instead choose to ghost through the room and sniff around, absorbing rumor and whisper as a sponge.

Skall's unique place in the clan, that of a Kabuki branch member controlled solely by the head of the Bunraku, meant he heard things from both sides and knew most secrets of the general populace. What he did with the knowledge was solely at Uemura's discretion however, and Skall would not present information to his surrogate father unless relevant to the man's interests or needs. 

For now, he wandered through the clan hall in an entirely uninteresting way.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Senju Clan Compound - Night</span></div>
Air filled Izumi’s lungs like water into a sinking ship as she awoke from her erratic dreams. She gasped for more air and pushed it out of her keeping a rapid pace as her pale green eyes adjusted to the scenery around her. Torches were lit outside and the angry cries of her clansmen could be heard. She immediately grabbed a vest threw on a pair of pants and stormed out of her tent, hell reflected through her eyes.

<font color=""#6ca6cd"">”What the hell is going on?”</font> Izumi roared at the gathered crowd, all of whom surrounded two of her clansmen. The embers shone against the leaves that surrounded them, Izumi’s doing it helped keep bandits away when they couldn’t be seen. Two of her clansmen turned to her and quickly moved out of her way; one to her left another to her right. The rest of the clan followed suit as they noticed the others, slowly and one by one the circle opened up revealing one man with a kunai to another’s throat.

<font color=""#00746b"">”I caught him stealing some food from the wagon, it was plain as day.”</font> The man addressing Izumi lacked charisma, that was assured through his speech patterns but he clearly had the attention of the clan as some muffled concerns swept through the crowd. 

<font color=""#00a99d"">”It’s for my mum, she’s been growing ill over the past few months, I’m not sure she’ll make it if I don’t give her some more food and that’s why I’m here.”</font> The younger man said on the other end of a kunai. There was a hint of desperation in his voice, not too noticeable, but just enough to convince the clan what he was saying was true. 

<font color=""#00746b"">”But if that’s the case, someone else will go hungry; someone else will starve in place of your mother!”</font> The older man retorted, this time a few more clansmen mumbled their agreement with the man. 

<font color=""#6ca6cd"">”Let him have the food.”</font> Izumi said walking towards the two men and retrieving the older man’s kunai. <font color=""#6ca6cd"">”If you’re worried about the clan going hungry, go hunt.”</font> Izumi said cocking her head to the side to meet the older man’s eyes with her own, fire blazing in her gaze.  <font color=""#6ca6cd"">”And you, you will be joining me in the hunting party regardless of your own will tomorrow, do I make myself clear?”</font> Izumi threatened throwing the kunai beside her own foot lodging it into the ground. 

Both men nodded their heads, swallowing their pride and the rest of the clan began returning to their tents when a woman’s scream could be heard. 

<font color=""#6ca6cd"">”This is going to be a long night…”</font> Izumi sighed.

<font color=""#810d00"">”Again Yuen.”</font> Her mother ordered. Yuen’s heart was pounding in her ears and she could feel sweat moving down her rapidly expanding and compressing chest. She reached to her side and withdrew two shuriken and a kunai, each with some metal string attached to them. She inhaled deeply before beginning her assault. She opened her eyes, the Sharingan whirling as it obtained its target. Yuen launched a shuriken and kunai to the right and left of her mother who did not even blink. As Yuen threw her second shuriken she pulled on the kunai’s cord propelling the second shuriken faster than ever but it was deflected by her mother. 

<font color=""#810d00"">”Your form is weak, pitiful for a woman your age.”</font> Her mother lectured, untangling the kunai and shuriken from the trees they were latched onto and handing them back to her daughter. <font color=""#810d00"">”You’re done for today, go see if you can’t figure out what’s going on.”</font> She spat with a disgusted tone ringing clearly through her voice. Yuen just nodded, placing her tools back in her pouch. 

There was some kind of commotion, the scale of which wasn’t clear until Yuen rounded the bend. There she realized it was a full blown battle, or at least, had been. Hato, a boy a few years older than herself recognized as a prodigal child amongst Uchiha standards, which said a lot. He held a high ranking amongst the Uchiha clan and many people respected him. Yuen glanced around, missing some of the words Hato was saying, something about stopping this nonsense. Everyone in the crowd seemed enraged but there were two men who looked to be the center of the argument, Avin and Kyomu. Yuen glanced towards the rest of the group and she could see what looked to be a secondary argument starting to Hato’s left. Before she kenw what she was doing she found her feet carrying herself forward.

<font color=""#ffc3bc"">”Are you not all members of this clan? Have you forgone your brotherhood to each and every member? This fight ends. Now.”</font> Yuen decreed, seemingly channeling a portion of her mother’s attitude. The two men who had been starting the secondary argument quieted down and nodded, Yuen glanced over to Hato’s area. <font color=""#ffc3bc"">”What started this?”</font> She asked.</div>"

Kakkoi Dango Stand ---&gt; Land of Earth/Land of Grass Border - Morning</span></span></div>

The sounds of people chatting over their morning dumplings faded behind the trio as the stand got smaller and smaller over their shoulders. The smell did not recede with the voices however, as the three wanderers carried with them their own preferred dumplings. Goro had finished his first skewer already, the pointed stick protruding from his teeth as he chewed on it thoughtfully. The remaining two skewers he had now were wrapped up and stored in his satchel for later consuming. For now he strolled at a steady pace with his hands resting upon his belt sash, grunting in contentment now and then at the recent memory of his treat.

Yue's focus was currently divided into three pieces. The first piece was on the consumption of the sweet Mitarashi dango that was his breakfast. The second was keeping up with his much taller companion Goro. And the final piece was on the surrounding area. You could never be too careful even during a time of relative peace. There was no such thing as true peace when you were a traveling ninja. Especially when people mistook you as a woman. While hilarious to his companions, it wasn't quite as funny to him. But just barely, it was still pretty funny. His companions had teased him before about dressing him up as a woman if they ever needed to disguise themselves. Yue dreaded the day it would actually happen.

While his two companions were walking further ahead, Isha walked at a much slower pace occasionally moving in a slow circle. Most days he would do his best to keep pace with Goro and Yue, they were the main powerhouses of the group and he relied on them heavily to keep him safe. Today though he was taking his time to admire the world around him after sharing a delicious treat with his friend he was in even higher spirits than normal. <font color=""#aba000"">""We really should stop and take in the sights more often guys! I mean it feels like we haven't stopped moving in fooooooorever!""</font> Isha's voice cleared the distance between him and his companions, dropping into an almost childish whine near the end as he spun with his arms out to his sides.

As if caused by Isha's sudden outburst, Goro paused abruptly spinning on his heel as his armored boots dug into the lightly-gravelled road below. His eyes indicated a complex thought process and the flaring of his nostrils indicated that he was sampling the air. With a furrow of his brow and a muffled cough, the sturdy beast finally spoke: ""<font color=""#0072bc"">We stink.</font>"" 

It was quiet and concise, but got the point across despite being entirely anticlimactic and not appropriate for the situation. Goro had a bad habit of over-dramatizing himself even with the slightest of thoughts. ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Baths. There has to be some....there.</font>"" Turning he pointed ominously at a plume of smoke rising from somewhere far down the road in the Land of Grass as if divining something from a world beyond their own.

Yue smiled at the antics of his companions. Isha's almost child-like behavior was refreshing when mixed with his own, more serious personality, and the reason he had give the younger man the pet nickname Little One. Though Isha was an inch taller than Yue. Goro's mentioning of them stinking didn't concern Yue. But the plume of smoke he pointed to did. <font color=""red"">""Yes, I believe we should head there next.""</font> Yue said with casual smile on his face. Though at the same time he unconsciously reached for the tessen hanging from the sash around his waist. It was too much smoke to be a simple campfire. Something had happened wherever that smoke was.

Isha quickly stopped his spinning to gaze off in the direction that the behemoth Goro had pointed in. Tilting his head a bit to the side he shrugged. <font color=""#aba000"">""I don't see any reason not to go that way.""</font> Pausing for a moment he suddenly jumped a bit with a bright smile on his lips. <font color=""#aba000"">""Oh! Maybe they will have new books for me to read! It has been a long time since I got anything new to read.""</font> Just before he began to move he noticed Yue's hand dropping towards the fan on his waist causing Isha's smile dropped into a bit of a frown.<font color=""#aba000"">""You don't think that we will have to fight right guys?""</font>

Chewing for a moment upon the dango skewer between his teeth, Goro shrugged before snapping it between his teeth. ""<font color=""#0072bc"">They had best hope not.</font>"" The shinobi spoke, ever brief in referring to those that may oppose them at their destination. There had been so very few that stood in their path that had truly threatened or challenged the trio so far. Goro's confidence was not without a subtle caution however. ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Having a change of heart?</font>"" He inquired to either of his companions before removing the broken skewer from his mouth and walking steadily toward their goal, already knowing that neither of them were going to back down as long as they all had one another's backs.

If Yue hadn't known his companions as well as he did, he may have mistook Goro's confidence for arrogance. But he knew the caution that lay underneath. The Peaceful Warrior too held a quiet confidence in the trio. Though they lacked a bit in the ranged attack department, they were still strong enough, at least to defeat the opponents they had come across so far. <font color=""red"">""Of course not.""</font> He said in reply to Goro's next statement, his loyalty to the group ever unwavering. His hand moved away from the tessen at his waist, in order to give the youngest of the group a little more peace of mind. He had other ways to fight than just the fan. He began walking again as Goro did, with a quick glance behind to make sure Isha was keeping up with them.

Even after four years Isha still felt uneasy at the prospect of fighting. It wasn't that he doubted his comrades abilities, nor did he question his own, it was simply the fact that prior to leaving his village he had never even seen a fight. It came as quite the shock to discover that most of the rest of the world everyone was always so eager to fight. With a quick shake of his head he cleared his mind of any trepidation before flashing a bright smile at both of his companions. <font color=""#aba000"">""Like my heart could ever change Goro! I just hope that if we do have to fight they actually know what they are doing, that last group didn't and I couldn't get a replacement for my Dead Soul Technique. So could one of you try to keep one in good enough condition?""</font> He knew that both Goro and Yue were aware of Isha's good heart, but that didn't change the fact that in battle he would back them up no matter what. With a destination set, and the potential that things could turn sour, Isha quickly picked up his pace to catch up with his friends as they headed towards the rising smoke.</div>"

The Uchiha clan had been keeping to itself as of late, aside from the usual scouting missions and espionage. They had done no harm to any neighboring clans nor did they show any signs of aggression, everything they had done was passive. So why then did someone feel the need to attack? It made little sense to everyone in the village, including those in positions of power. Sure, not all clans got along, but something akin to am armistice had been agreed upon, so fighting had ceased. What clans would have reason enough to attack in spite of this? The Gaharo clan maybe, though they neither had the manpower nor resources to stage an attack. Besides, the attack on them hadn't been unfounded; trespassing on a clan's territory and stealing from them was simply unforgivable, that was one thing any clan could agree on. It couldn't be the Gaharo then, meaning someone else had perpetrated the attack. But who?

The astonishment of their kinsman's death had waned some over the following day, but tempers were still high. As there was no way of knowing who had committed the crime many people were on edge, and some were even accusing their brothers and sisters of having slain one of their own. An absurd notion, and one that the head family was hastily working to dispel. Nothing was worse than infighting within a clan, especially if that had been the goal of this assassination to begin with. They had to maintain order above all else while working to sort this issue out. Easier said than done, with manpower being stretched as thin as it was. Most of the clan's Jōnin were out on missions, leaving only a handful plus the head family to oversee affairs. Not the worst of stations, though hardly an enjoyable one. Scrutinizing those who you grew up with wasn't easy, nor was facing the fact it really could be one of them.

Yoshiro hardly savored the task assigned to him but understood the necessity of it. Espionage and combat were his forte, and while he loathed to think he was spying on his own he was suited for the job. Of course, what he was doing at this very moment might scarcely be classified as ""spying""; it was a lovely evening out and he would be hard pressed not to enjoy a walk through the village. Perhaps that was just an excuse to avoid taking on the unsavory task, as he really wasn't too inclined to try incriminating someone in the village. He would get to it, he always got to his work when assigned, just some jobs took a bit longer than others. Besides, there really was not very much information to work with just yet, investigations were still under way. Aside from questioning the Chūnin who had found the man and investigating the scene itself there wasn't much to be done just yet. 

The crime itself may not need to be addressed, but that didn't mean there weren't other matters to attend to. As usual directing the clan's daily activities, from hunting to missions and everything in between all fell to the head family to coordinate. Well, them and a handful of advisers, which truth be told Yoshiro wouldn't mind a few more. Less work for him meant more time out on the field, and that was all he really wanted right now. Being bothered with mundane, every day tasks was dull, and there seemed to be no end to them. Some were trivial, like a neighborly quarrel or a misplaced item, while others were noisy, violent and potentially problematic. Some in particular might involve two morons getting into a fight with one another, only to have someone break it up before things escalated. Oddly specific? Perhaps, if Yoshiro weren't staring at the very scene this moment.

That was just the tip of the proverbial ice berg, as matters had really gotten out of hand. What had begun with probably a minor disagreement had escalated into a brawl involving two families it seemed, with the fathers at the center of it. Now was not the time for clansmen to be fighting with one another; the death of a fellow Uchiha took precedence over any petty squabble. Tents were easily replaceable, and lumber was more than plentiful if not time consuming to replace, so Yoshiro hardly cared for that. What he was more concerned with was the spectacle that his fellow Uchiha were making of themselves, and at such a poor time too.

Hato was well known in their clan, and hardly someone to ignore, but he didn't necessarily carry the weight that the head family did. As soon as Yoshiro had walked into the fray and begun to push people aside the brawling began to simmer down, and for good reason. Most of the people here were Genin at best, and didn't have a whole lot of combat experience. Though he loathed to be involved in a brawl he could certainly fight, and as a Jōnin it was a safe bet it wouldn't go well for the other party. Pushing aside a pair of boys he sent a glare their way before going into the center of the mess. There he found Hato trying to keep two other members of their clan, Kyoumu and Avin, from tearing one another's throats out. What a bothersome evening this had turned into.

Aside from Hato, there was another taking the initiative to try putting an end to the fighting. Yuen, if he wasn't mistaken. Not an overly remarkable individual far as he knew, but at the very least she kept her nose out of trouble. Letting out a sigh the Jōnin approached the group in the center, a frown marring his boyish features. 

<font color=""#00aeef"">""I'd love to hear the reason why you're all acting like barbarians as well,""</font> Yoshiro interjected, looking between Kyoumu and Avin disapprovingly. Two grown men at the middle of such an embarrassing display, how annoying. Before either of the two men could answer he then turned his attention to Hato and Yuen, nodding in appreciation for their help. <font color=""#00aeef"">""Thank you, though I'm a little disappointed you two couldn't show up sooner. Ah well...""</font> he mused, shrugging his shoulders dismissively. <font color=""#00aeef"">""Now then, you two, talk. What's going on?""</font></div>"

""Sir, we have secured the borders and scanned the land. No evidence has been found. A clean sweep."" 

A cloaked Uchiha stood behind the former head of the Uchiha Clan, red eyes peering into the sky and gleaming from the setting sun. Toyotomi eyes scanned over the village from the top of the tallest tower. His eyes held the same gleam from the sun making it glow a bright red as his sharingan was activated. Wind slowly swept across his body, chilling his skin, blowing his hair out of place, and touching the very core of his soul. The wind currently represented the bitter and chilling realization that someone was sending the clan a message. Someone was sending a message to them and Toyotomi couldn't figure out why or what the message meant. A sigh echoed from his voice and he could only think of what clan had the means to do such a thing without notice. 

""Is there anyone we know off that could get in and out of this village without any notice?"" Toyotomi asked the Uchiha with a hint of dismay in his voice. While it was quite possible for a ninja to get in the village stealthy but to kill a member in silence with no resistance and escape meant that person had to be far more skilled then most members of the clan. The cloaked Uchiha voice cracked a bit as he responded, ""No sir. There is no one. We could think of from any clan that could get in here and out with no problems."" Toyo turned to face the Uchiha, placing his hand on their, giving a very warm feeling to the man younger then him. ""Go back and tell my daughter of the news. She'll need to know to figure the Uchiha coarse of action."" Toyotomi only smiled at the man before he left to speak with the Clan Head. 

Toyotomi placed his hand on his chin to signify he was thinking heavily on the situation. He had been around for very many years and experienced so much. His mind went through the various scenarios he had ever been apart of, giving a very sinister thought to it all. ""Hopefully this doesn't bring a clan war. This land needs peace more then anything.""</div>"

He spotted Yuen as she dashed onto the scene, her own heroics helping to stop the small skirmish. He smiled as she revealed formidable presence, ceasing the fighting between her charges and his own. The two warriors retreated a few feet, glancing down at the ground in shame, their cloaks flowing in a dust filled wind. 

It was easy to admit that he was glad he didn't have to commit to assaulting his clansman, he deplored combat without cause, and found himself battling far more often than he liked. He sighed before raking his hand through his curly chestnut hair, his eyes looking to Yuen. ""Thanks for the help,"" he told her, looking over towards Avin and his three comrades. They were now mere shells of the rage beforehand. 

""Avin,"" he reprimanded harshly. ""What are you doing? Rin is hurt you know, did you do that?"" 

""The lad got in the way on accident, I was trying to save him."" 

""From?"" 

""Kyoumu,"" he said, nodding towards a smug Uchiha with five others holding bloodsoaked weaponry. ""He talked ill of my late wife, I could not allow him to leave unharm. Even if we are clansman."" 

Hato thought about the situation before rubbing his temple. ""What do you think, Yuen? These small attacks are happening more and more frequently between these two. They'll end up starting a blood feud. ""</div>"

Night- Monzaemon Clan Hall</div>

Uemura sat at the front of the gathering clan infront of him. His hands together infront of him. Kawatake wasn't there yet, but that was alright. For once, he was going to speak. 

He looked around to see many surprised expressions among the clan at seeing him. The crowd was abuzz with rumors, gossip and talk. What was it their leader was going to tell them.

He shook his head, he hated public speaking. He felt impatient, especially with the anger he had towards the unknown assailant. The reports of later damage hadn't helped.

<font color=""#78866b"">""QUIET!""</font>

He slammed a Sai against the wall behind him to get everyone's attention, standing up to get everyone's attention. Whoever was late could be filled in later, he didn't feel like waiting any longer. 

He stared at the crowd, making sure he had their attention.

<font color=""#78866b"">""This is enough to tell the rest of the clan. We have been attacked, an act of war. The assailant broke through out guards, and destroyed the poison stores of the clan. That means no poison will be added to anyone's weapons until we procure some more.""</font>

He heard many disappointed comments from his Bunraku Clan.

<font color=""#78866b"">""Why I'm bothering to tell you this, and why I take this seriously is they left a calling card, one member, Eiki Sanada, was brutally murdered, and left as as sign. The brutality of it, while interesting, is mocking our clan, and asking for a response. If they want war, they will have it. I will not tolerate this clan looking weak! We've all done too much building to lose that all. 

I don't yet know who did this, but rest assured, we will have a puppet with his likeness by the end of this.

Now, I don't expect morale boosting cheers, that's Kawatake's job. What I want is revenge. I expect all of you to prepare yourselves for war..... Now, assignments..... any assassins who may or may not be in the sound of my voice, it would be convient if Gobi was raided for any plants we use in our poisons. Tataruki, you are going to that town as well to interrogate anyone who might have information on who did this. I'm ordering your lord, Kawatake, when he gets here, to go with you. If anyone here thinks they are getting off easy with our enforcer gone, I'M handling all traitors personally while she's away.""</font>

To say that Uemura was pissed would be an understatement. One thing was on his mind. He was not losing clan face to this. He was going to find who had done this, and he was not going to let them go. He was slightly paranoid as he went through what clans in the area were capable of doing this. He was going to have to talk with Zushina later about this.</div>"

Having gotten word of the terrible incident in the middle of the night Kawatake had been at work since the moment he'd been awoken. Now, exhausted and annoyed from his lack of sleep, he entered the gathering that his brother, strangely had called. He wasn't sure what Uemura would say, but he had an idea that it would likely have something to do with revenge.

As his elder brother called his name he rubbed his temples, a smile touching his features briefly before he banished it, his normal seriousness returning. The man was quick to act, that was for sure, and he'd picked the right people to send, but that didn't mean he wanted to go anymore. Nonetheless, Uemura was the clan head, so he'd obey, especially since times were now so...troubled.

<font color=""#7e5401""><span class=""bb-b"">“Understood, Uemura-san,”</span></font> he called out to his brother before glancing through the crowd to find Tataruki. <font color=""#7e5401""><span class=""bb-b"">“Come, we're needed elsewhere, preparations must be made before we depart,”</span></font> he waited for her response, and once he got it he began making his way from the gathering. He would hit Uemura later, now wasn't the time.

No, instead it was time for war, something that he neither relished or despised. With the way of the Monzaemon as it was, not to mention his hand in keeping it that way, he could hardly feel either way. Shaking his head and turning his mind back to the mission he stopped outside of the gathering, several buildings away, and waited for Tataruki to catch up. It was going to be a long week, he knew.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2""><font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Kimiko Uchiha</span><span class=""bb-i""></span></span></font></div></div>

She'd been quietly enjoying some time in bed, before one of her kin had rudely awoken her from her thoughts, for she hadn't been sleeping—contrary to the beliefs of most—but rather considering what was to be done about the current state of affairs in regards to the clan. The truth was, they didn't have nearly as much territory as she would've liked. Still expanding meant intruding upon the lands of other clans, some smaller, some of equal power, and some who might even rival them should they get the chance.

Having heard there was trouble of some kind from the aide, she had began dressing herself, doing so quickly and efficiently. It was when she'd just finished her make-up, not that she needed much of it—having inherited her mother's stunning beauty and all—that the messenger from her father arrived.

<span class=""bb-i"">“There's been a killing,”</span> she could hardly believe what she was hearing even as she rose to greet the man. Instead a look of rage briefly came over her features, before she took a deep breath and let it fade into a dangerous fuel. <span class=""bb-i"">Keep it contained, keep it controlled, deal with it later,</span> she thought to herself, merely giving the man a nod as she exited the large building—the largest in the compound.

It had been built for the head family, and thus was her birthright.

<font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">“Tell my father to meet me in the gathering place. I will send out messengers to the rest of the clan and those on missions as soon as I've spoken to him. Oh, and have someone fetch my brother,”</span></font> she added the last bit hastily even as her mind turned from that issue and began to figure how to tell the clan what had happened without instilling the same rage that she now buried in the pit of her stomach.

She'd make her conclusion once her father arrived, he'd debrief her, then things could progress.

With this in mind she headed towards a nearby forest, intending to go to the location where her mother's body lay. She simply called it Solace clearing and it was the place that the clan gathered when they needed to. This was where Toyotomi would meet her and where she would be when he got the message. In the meantime, she would have to think of how to suitably deal with this issue, for even without the circumstances or knowledge of the culprit, this could not go unpunished.

Her people were not to be made light of, she would have justice, perhaps if it was the last thing she did.

Hopefully it wouldn't be.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""#c31414""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Shinku Hyūga</span> – <span class=""bb-i"">Tasatsu Tsuki</span></span></font></div></div>

Stealing from the rich to kill the poor and rich both. It was a wonderous prospect, Shinku thought to himself as he neared another town. He had heard there was a diplomat here, heard from a client that was. The diplomat had been troubled by a series of gangs and needed assistance, and so this was where the rogue Hyuga found himself.

First he would find somewhere to stay, somewhere that the diplomat did not know well, then he would locate the man, his funds, and scope out his estate. It was a matter of course, he needed to know how to be in and out of the man's home should the fellow fail to amuse him properly—a fatal occurrence for the guilty.

Humming a tune, Shinku spun a pouch about his finger, it was filled with coin from several jobs quite well done. They'd been enjoyable too, though he didn't quite like work for the client, nor the others who'd assisted him in the effort. Still, he'd been promised more work at a later date and the sum had been plenty to briefly satisfy the Hyuga's greed.

Grinning he glanced about, his white eyes piercing everything before them as he did so. People shrunk from him as he past them, as if they knew the malice he held in his heart—as if they knew he was a killer, no, a predator just waiting to tear out their throats.

The truth of the matter? He was...someone just had to offer him the right reason, or the right price, and he'd do it. It didn't matter whom either. Neither the victim or the client mattered, he'd do it for the money. However, if the client wanted to keep their life, then the victims, and the method by which he was to deal with them, or the reason that it should be done, mattered very much indeed.

Yes, Shinku was tricky for there was a rule ever unsaid, but easily noted, to his trade.

Amuse me and you'll live. Don't, and the same fate will befall you as befell those you paid me to prey upon...and none will be the wiser—and none will be fool enough to pursue me.

No one was. Not yet.

He liked it that way.

Why? Because it meant that he wasn't just <span class=""bb-i"">a</span> predator, but instead that he was <span class=""bb-b"">the</span> predator, and he was at the top of the food chain.

Man was it luxurious, his life that was. To any who fell beneath his eyes, well, they weren't nearly as lucky.

Poor poor them, eh?

<div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span> – <span class=""bb-i"">Suiteiru Meian</span></span></div></font></div>
<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i60.tinypic.com/5mydr5.jpg""/></div>

A single member of his people eliminated, while not a grave loss, was one that he did not enjoy seeing. He stood over the body, eyes looking down at it, observing each detail. Still, he could not detect a hint of chakra, not a hint of leftover blood or biologically material from the aggressor. No means by which to track the individual so he could tear from him the truth, followed by the man's organs—one by one starting from least necessary and going up the chain till death.

Yes, Zume did not like to see his kin die, he did not enjoy anyone's death, typically, the very idea of killing was often repugnant to him. However, in a world such as this one, it was also necessary at times, even if it was detestable.

Sighing he turned to one of his kin and shook his head, before turning entirely away from the scene and moving to exit the cavern. Before he could his fellow Tatasuko spoke, <span class=""bb-i"">“So what are we to do? We cannot let this go unpunished, can we? We are few in number, but we are strong. Could we not wipe out whomever did this, or at least demand they sacrifice one of their own as compensation?!”</span> There was anger in the boy's voice, but Zume did not turn to him.

He did not need to, instead all he said was, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“Yes, we could.”</span></font> He then departed, only to hear the boy swear and slam his gauntlet covered fist against the stone wall. The shade shook his head as he headed to the central chamber of their current base of operations. They'd be moving again soon. They never stayed still for long, and now, after an attack, was not the time to remain stagnant and easily traceable. No, the only reason they remained was because of his own expertise and the word of the Elder council, which he was now heading to join once more.

With his deductions figured, he knew that not just anyone could have done this. It had to be someone who could sense chakra or at least track reliably. Perhaps someone who utilized earth jutsu could map out these caverns and detect them, perhaps someone with their own kekkei genkai gone rogue. That did happen sometimes, they were not perfect, no one was.

Sighing lightly, he put the thoughts aside as he entered the central chamber, joining the council of seven elders, plus one. The eighth man in the room, ever silent, ever watching, but without opinion.

He did his best to ignore him.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“Nothing. Not a trace. We should move, perhaps send word to the other clans.”</span></font>

One of the others scoffed, <span class=""bb-i"">”What good will that do, but show our weakness and lack of understanding.”</span> Zume did not look at the man, but continued as if he had not heard him. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“I believe this was not an isolated incident, but a planned attack. A provocation meant to instil violence and hatred. With the culprit unknown the clans are left to figure whom did it on their own, through emotion and hatred.”</span></font>

Another elder spoke, <span class=""bb-i"">“Would contacting others not incriminate us further? Perhaps make them think we an easy target? I see no reason to reveal our location, it only puts us at greater risk.”</span> The man was right, but Zume had expected resistance, in fact he'd prepared for it.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“I never said any of you ought to send the message, nor did I specify the messenger,”</span></font> his abyssal orbs met each of theirs one by one, before settling on the small fire in the center of the room, which they sat about in a circle. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“I will go.”</span></font> The elders exchanged glances, then after a long moment, nodded in agreement, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“I will send word if I cannot return immediately. Feel no need to inform me of your movements, I'll find the clan when I need to,”</span></font> they all nodded once again as Zume rose, turning to leave.

A chill touched his shoulder before he could leave, and there he was, the silent member of their council, the eighth man. <font color=""#1e1e1e""><span class=""bb-b"">“Your efforts to maintain the peace are fruitless,”</span></font> he said, no emotion or feeling evident in his voice, his breath chilling upon Zume's back in a way that had little to do with temperature. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“I can try,”</span></font> he heard the man scoff and his hand lifted, at this he left the room. From within he heard the shuffle of the eighth man's foot steps, heading in the opposite direction, disappearing into the caverns they called home.

The caverns that the eighth man had discovered to begin with, the man who had been his brother, Shougaku.

Glancing at the rocky ceiling he preformed several handseals even as he entered his small home and donned his straw hat, its black cloth dangling past its edges to cover his face...and his eyes. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">“So it begins again,”</span></font> he said quietly to himself before the portal opened, his form stepping through it where it disappeared.

The world was turning once more. A new order, a new era, had began to crawl. It was past its infancy. The question was, what would it become?</div>"

The shadows stretched and twisted, expanding and thinning. The sun shined brightly with the morning and into the eyes of the duo that occupied the Nara Compound’s courtyard. Heavy breathing filled the air as they stared intensely at each other, dark eyes clashing.
“You seriously think you can beat me, Shikako?” The barely-a-man huffed, his hands clasped together as he controlled the shadow that clung to his cousin’s.

Shikako felt a surge of envy in her chest, ready to explode into a heat of anger, and she desired most to jab a fist into his face. Alas, she could not move – immobilized. “No, I don’t think I can beat you because you’re the great, <span class=""bb-i"">amazing</span> Shikashi.”

“Save your sarcasm for someone else, bitch.” Shikashi hissed, standing up and strolling towards her with his hands in his pockets, forcing her to do the same.

“Wow, you’re such a nice guy. Fit to be a leader, yeah?”

Shikashi nearly hit her.

Shikako grinned.

“And you are?” Shikashi spat from the corner of his mouth.

Shikako didn’t say anything; deep down, she knew she wasn’t fit to be the head of the clan. Nevertheless, she smiled cockily, especially when she knew that his shadow technique had reached its limit. Like clockwork, the shadow that connected the two quivered and began to recede. Now free to move, Shikako stretched her arms over her head and popped her back.

Her smugness dispersed quickly when the presence of the two strongest shinobi in the Nara clan appeared. Shikayo and Shikaro stared down at the duo with unimpressed looks on their faces, a distance between the two making it clear of their anger towards each other.

“Is that all you got, Shikashi?” Shikayo asked rhetorically, bearing his teeth and crossing his arms. Shikashi deflated, hunching his shoulders and glanced at the ground like an admonished puppy. Shikako almost laughed – and then she saw her father’s unimpressed glare, staring over her.

“Let’s go, Shikako. We have things to do.” Shikaro said instead of reprimanding her like Shikayo did. Shikashi felt his heart burn with shame and anger, his hands clenching into fists in his pockets.

“I’ll beat you next time.” Shikako called over her shoulder as she left the courtyard and Shikashi hissed incredulously under his breath.</div>"

Yuen glanced over at Kyoumu her eyes moving like a crosshair, meeting his eyes. No Sharingan was present in her gaze, instead it was something much worse; a signal nothing threatening, just the confirmation of destruction should he react in a way unsuitable towards Yuen’s situation.  <font color=""#ffc3bc"">“Kyoumu, you boast your weapons with some pride it seems. I do as well,”</font> she said raising her kunai up in the air. <font color=""#ffc3bc"">“The only difference between my weapon and yours is the lack of my clansmen’s blood staining mine. Do you think it wise to be boasting your bloodied weapon by the time Lady Kimiko gets here?”</font> Yuen said putting her kunai back into its pouch.

Yuen allowed some air to enter her lungs as her chest expanded into her shirt beads of sweat slipping down into her shirt from off of her neckline. She pushed her hair out of her eyes matting it back, the curls spooling down all the way to her lower back. She looked over at Hato, her eyes now friendly and kind. <font color=""#ffc3bc"">“I say we leave Kyoumu and his thugs for Lady Kimiko, it is not our place to pass judgment on someone’s actions, just to defend our people. We know their names, there is nowhere for them to go, so unless they plan on fighting their way out of this clan, Lady Kimiko <span class=""bb-i"">will</span> deal with them.”</font>

Yuen walked over to Hato from where she had been standing and put a hand kind on his shoulder. <font color=""#ffc3bc"">“It’s over now; do you know where Rin is? He should get some medical attention pretty soon.”</font> Yuen gave Avin a sympathetic gaze, her eyes reading something along the lines of <span class=""bb-i"">we’ll help him</span>.

<span class=""bb-i"">Land of Wind Deserts--&gt;Monzaemon Clan Gates – Night</span></div>
Four men surrounding one small girl, each man boasting a large weapon, one an axe, two swords and another a cudgel. They all bore smiles on their faces, though none grander than the girl’s. She was wearing a cloak that covered the majority of her body, shielding it from the great desert sun during the day and the harsh sand-carrying winds during the night. 

Mirai, feeling like a bomb ready to burst inside her cloak, could feel the bristle sand with her tail which was moving in slow deliberate circles, ready to act. She could hardly contain her excitement as he largely black eyes glanced at the two men she could see with ease and her well-adjusted ears listened to the two behind her. Her hands came up in a slow deliberate motion, forming one seal, in an instant a shadow clone-looking copy of Mirai appeared beside her. Mirai then buckled forwards, as if she was exhausted. 

<font color=""#c2b280"">Little girl I’m afraid you have no way out of this situation. One shadow clone isn’t going to be enough to get you out of this one.</font> He said to the entertainment of the other men around him. Laughing he walked up to the clone and seemingly exhausted Mirai and casually gripping his weapon on his side. As he reached the clone his left fist tightened and he sent his meaty fist straight after its throat. The clone instantly disappeared in a cloud of white smoke as the other three men laughed hysterically. But from the white smoke they did not hear they friend. An air of tension spread over the vast desert expanse as all of them waited for their friend to chime in. But instead out from the white smoke blew a mass of black smoke, traveling towards them, growing exponentially in size paralyzing the three men. Before long, they were swallowed up by the black smoke which continued to barrel past them. 

First sounds of confusion would be heard, as one man claimed it smelled of ash, another claimed it felt thick and it could feel it gathering on his skin. They all would begin walking towards Mirai and their partner’s last known location. But before they could make it five feet, the faint sound of teeth clicking would be heard before a deafening explosion would be heard echoing across the great expanse. 

<font color=""#21eb5f"">”Is it too much to ask for a challenge every once in a while? Huh?”</font> Mirai asked the now statue standing beside her frozen in time, leaning on him and sighing deeply, her tail receding into her lower back and her iris’ expanding pushing the black lining out of her eyes. The girl exited sage mode with a needlessly deep sigh. 

<font color=""#21eb5f"">”Well at least I’m here.”</font> Mirai said looking not one hundred feet in front of her current position was the Monzaemon clan gates. <span class=""bb-i"">I hope I can find work, this walk was a bitch.</span> Mirai thought to herself approaching the gates and giving an audible knock on them, waiting for a response.</div>"

Kao watched curiously from outside the compound, sitting upon a tree he climbed. He saw two people fighting, and an oddity happening with their shadows. After the weird thing with shadows the two mimicked each other perfectly. It was bizarre to see, and even weirder to see two others appear and act like the shadows acting as they did was normal. Though the two new appearances split the original two, ""Maybe they were fighting, why would they be fighting? This place isn't anything some kind of arena is it...? I guess theres only one way to find out."" Kao thought to himself hopping out of the tree. 

Quickly he ran towards this place he had come upon. Going straight to what seemed to be the entrance, ""HELLO IN THERE.... WHAT IS THIS PLACE?"" He waited for a short time, hopping someone opened up or at least answer him, he didn't want to intrude... but oh well if no one answers its not his fault.</div>"

He glanced over his shoulder at Yuen than returned his gaze to the sky with a sigh. ""Yea,"" he agreed softly. ""Come with me, I'll take you there."" 

His dash earlier was slower now, steady. Yuen and himself had solved the issue before them and now they had only Rin to worry about. Poor kid, the child was only trying to stop his father from shedding blood. It was admirable, especially for one so young. With a quick action, he scratched a sudden itch in his head and let the arm drop back to his side. 

""Did it take you from anything important?"" he asked out of the blue, remembering that Yuen was following behind him.

The trail back to the tree was laid out before them now, his cloak billowed as he crept over a gravelly incline, allowing the wind providence over his clothing. He eye'd the future kunoichi with a type of ease that he had everyone else. She was young but powerful, sweat dotted her clothing that couldn't have come from the skirmish, so he figured she was training earlier; which spoke volumes. 

""The fight that is.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Land of Fire - Tea Room, Nara Compound, Morning</span>

“Shikamoe was murdered last night.”

Shikako felt her heart break under her chest and her fingers twitched against her thigh.

“Oh.”

Shikaro stared at her with lazy, searching eyes and she felt him digging into her soul. He was waiting for her to burst into tears or throw the table across the room. Instead, Shikako sat there in seiza, fiddling with her hands in her lap. Shikamoe was a close friend, very close, and Shikako didn’t have many of those. Actually, she had none. Who wanted to be friends with deficit Nara heir? Well, a lot would, but ever since people began looking to Shikashi as the next leader, her list of friends had shrinking. Shikamoe was probably the last person who was truly her friend, if Shikako was honest with herself. 

Shikako has had people die in her life before; she is a shinobi, after all. However, every time was different. One time she might have thrown a fit and punch a hole through the wall and another she might have cried until her eyes were puffy and red. Both of those instances had been in different times of her life, though, and this time, this moment, was in a different time as well. In this time, Shikako was used to sorrow and disappointment. In this time, Shikako just felt numb. Emotions did not swirl in her belly and thoughts didn’t devour her mind; no, all she had was the numb static sprinkled across her limps and soul. 

After a long moment of silence, Shikaro seemed satisfied with her reaction and nodded to himself, taking a sip of his tea. “Good, Shikako. Now, we must proceed with how we should handle this. What do you think we should do?”

Shikako glanced up from her lap and into the eyes of her father, the man that once coddled her with the warmth of fire, but now seemed like a distant silhouette with the icy grips of conviviality. He acted friendly and warm at times, polite and respectful, but he was nothing more than acquaintance to her. He had been nothing more than an acquaintance since the clan discovered of her insufficient chakra control. 
“We question the other clans of their participation in the killing of Shikamoe while continuing an investigation.” Shikako answers, picking at her nails nervously.

“No, you are thinking politically. What should we do strategically?” Shikaro prompted, his tone hard and calculating.

Shikako felt anxious sweat drip down her face and slip into her eyes. She had to blink multiple times to get the saltiness from her vision, lest it irritate her more. What was the right answer? If she is thinking politically, what would be the strategic answer? 

The Nara Clan had strong jutsu, indeed, but it didn’t have as much strength as the other big competitors and only had an average amount of members, not enough to swarm. The only thing that made the Nara Clan a worthy opponent was its skill in strategy and war. If they didn’t have numbers or strength, they couldn’t offend the other clans or make Shikamoe’s death public, now could they?

“We keep quiet about it. We conduct a quiet investigation and increase security. We must remain on the defense until we discover the culprit; and when we do, we quietly and surreptitiously slaughter him in the most gruesome way we can in order to spread the message that no one messes with the Nara.” Anger, pulled from deep within Shikako’s gut, so deep she hadn’t noticed it, rises into her voice. It wasn’t the simmering rage that Shikako has felt when faced with Shikashi’s taunts. Instead, it was the cold fury that freezes and freezes in one’s heart, living and living until revenge is dealt.

“Correct.” Shikaro murmurs, leaning back and taking another gulp of his tea. He sets it down and levels his eyes with Shikako, his intense gaze burning and scorching her. “But Shikashi would have gotten it on the first time.”

“This is the Nara Compound and you are intruding.” Shikashi hisses, hunching his shoulders and baring his teeth. “Leave, now.”

Shikashi readies his chakra in case the intruder doesn’t leave peacefully and his muscles tense in preparation. However, nobody would notice it unless one knew Shikashi like the back of one’s hand.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/apokalipse"">@Apokalipse</a></footer></blockquote>

""Well then... this is awkward,"" Kao said looking at the owner of the voice. ""I'm nothing threatening just a puppet master"" he spoke as he summoned up Scythe Master Liando, ""They aren't scary unless you look them in the face... don't worry they are meant to be like that.
""So are you sure I can't come in? I've been traveling the world and need, but a bit of rest""</div>"

Night- Monzaemon Clan Hall</div>

As Uemura finished his address to his clan, he quickly dismissed them, glaring around. Something would tell most sane members of the clan not to talk to him.... which unfortunately probably left 3/4 of the clan left.

He sighed as he got up, mulling over what was going to happen to the clan. They would send as many statements as needed, but it nagged him why. The Monzaemon were not well liked, but they were respected, why would anyone dare do anything to them to attract their whole attention? 

As he walked away from many people coming up to him, acting oblivious to them, a knock sounded, just barely loud enough for him to hear amid the not so hushed talk of the clan that had erupted since he'd ended. 

He didn't bother telling someone else to open it, walking up to it, and throwing the door open, the chill of the desert night breezing through the hall.

<font color=""#78866b"">""What do you want?""</font>

He saw a woman beyond the gates, and his eyes narrowed, wondering if she was part of the earlier murder</div>"

Exiting the compound later that day far after Uemura had dealt with the stranger at their gate, Kawatake--followed closely by Tataruki and her fox--trudged through the desert in an effort to quickly arrive in Gobi village. Preferring not to be caught in a sandstorm, or three, Kawatake and Tataruki took few breaks as he was intent on finishing this as quickly as possible.

He did not like wasting time and this applied to everyday life as much as it did to missions of any sort. So it was, after many hours of tiring travel, that the two saw the village upon the horizon. Exhaling sharply, Kawatake stopped a moment, glaring through the sand and heat towards the settlement.

He didn't like the feel of this, but it didn't matter.

Glancing at Tataruki briefly, then looking away, he started again and the two would soon find themselves entering Gobi Village. With any luck, the villagers, and any resident clan, would be responsible. It would be better that way, otherwise the Monzaemon would be dragged into what would likely be a much more complex situation. One that he did not like the idea of at all, even if they were likely to triumph in the end.

It was with this in mind that he set foot in the village. Hoping that things would be simple, but figuring they would be anything but.

It was an unfortunate place to be.</div>"

There was always an odd mixture of spiritually sound peace before blood was she en masse. Sitting upon a blanket laid out upon the sand, the young assassin watched as a figure or two moved about the village. His presence was subtle: a dust cloak wrapped around his shoulders and a conical straw hat atop his head as he pretended to hunch over in a drunken stupor, empty sake bottles laid out before him. <br/><br/>And so Skall waited quietly, hoping that his father would remain unharmed without him at arm's length. It was difficult to watch other shinobi remain close at hand in the brotherhood of clanship whilst he drifted on the outer edges of Uemura's world. Edges that were usually crusting with dried blood. But that is where he was told to be, and so he remained.<br/><br/>The toxins that remained on his person were of precious value for the moment with the clan's stores pillaged. He would have to use them sparingly if at all, instead relying more on his weaponry and, if occasion warranted it, his hazy red gift.<br/><br/>Letting out a mock hiccup, Skall's eyes darted to movement on the horizon. His eyes were well adjusted to the dark though not capable of seeing through it in its entirety. Either the rest of his clan were arriving soon, or he had drank a little too much of the sake.

Any discussion could be held there at their discretion. A place away from the world, the grove could bring a bit of peace for Toyotomi's family. He stood the flowers that Kimiko had planted weeks ago, admiring the beauty that his daughter paid so much attention to. Not only were they beautiful but also the kind of flowers that her mother would plant. Memories hobbled together within his mind, going over the things they shared, and the incidents of arguments. Regardless of the good or bad, Toyo was happy. He would wait as long as needed for his daughter to arrive whilst he smelled the flowers. ""Let us hope your daughter has things in her grasp. ""<br/><br/>Arriving a minute or two later, Kimiko's defined figure strutted its way proudly into the clearing, an air of purpose about her. Seeing the place she had spent many training sessions in was somewhat nostalgic, it provoked many emotions in her, but she had no time to address them at such a pivotal time, so they merely skirted the edges of her mind, ignored for a time. <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""Greetings father,""</span></font> she said, her voice sharp despite its clear and harmonious sound. <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""I called because I would prefer to make a more informed decision, and as I understand it you were the one who located the...<span class=""bb-i"">problem</span>,""</span></font> her eyes narrowed, a brief fire in them, before it was pushed away, clarity again apparent on her features.<br/><br/>""Ah Yes. A man dead and our storage nearly all burned. A difficult situation to say the least. None of the men could find the culprit or even a hint of evidence to help."" Toyotomi rubbed his chin intently. A quick unlatching of the pouch on his hips, Toyo pulled a kunai out. It was a small thing for Toyo and Kimiko to speak while practicing. It was a calming thing that both got from the woman they loved the most. A flick of the wrist sent the kunai flying toward his noble daughter. Nothing intense from them as that would ruin the area. Just a small exchange. <br/><br/>She listened, standing with one hip jutting out to the side slightly, her hand on said hip. When she noted his movement she took a half step forwards, angling her left side in front of her so that when the kunai approached she could turn, whipping her arm up, and snapping it out of the air. She then began to walk to the side, turning to tread the same ground she had before, pacing. <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""A blatant attack, and at such a terrible time in the season too,""</span></font> she tapped her chin thoughtfully, her brow furrowing as she did so. She did not like this, not one little fucking bit.<br/><br/>Doing her best not to grit her teeth, Kimiko's jaw muscles tensed lightly before more words poured from her supple lips, her tone serious, <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""Seeing as our relationship with most surrounding clans is decidedly positive, I say we send out a message or two.""</span></font> She nodded her head, glancing at her father a moment before continuing, <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""The clan should be informed and the watches doubled, preferrably with the sharingan so as to not miss any...important details.""</span></font> <span class=""bb-i"">Like the face of a killer,</span> she thought, annoyed that there'd been not a single witness. She didn't understand how it had been managed. <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""We also may have to consider the possibility that one of our so called allies is lying to us. What do you think, father?""</span></font> The last bit she said after ceasing her pacing and turning to Toyo, at which point she threw the kunai, as if passing the speaking torch. The action was casual despite the serious circumstances, she was attempting to stay relaxed.<br/><br/>It was barely working.<br/><br/>Raising his hand, his middle finger and pointer finger taking signifigance, Toyotomi caught the kunai between them like snatching a fly out of the air. His sharingan had worked out the neccesary speed and angle needed to achieve such a feat.  ""I agree. Foul play is an easy thing for the shinobi. It would take such to get past us without warning."" Toyotomi's left hand rose to stroke his chin and he pondered for a moment. ""What is it you would like for me to do? Our options are limited."" He asked curiously. <br/><br/>As her father mentioned foul play her eyes widened, an idea entering her pretty little head. Her eyes darkened, <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""It just occurred to me that this would've happened in the middle of the night, with ample shadows, but low visibility.""</span></font> She looked to her father, <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""I only know two clans who that would serve as an advantage to. The Hyuga and the Nara...""</span></font> despite mentioning the former of the two she could not see the Hyuga daring to attack them. Her and their people had something of an understanding as it was far too dangerous for either of them to face eachother without extensive losses. The Nara however, she could see taking on that role. They were mysterious, possessed some kind of specialized shadow technique, and many of them were geniuses to boot, or at least they liked to flaunt that particular trait.<br/><br/>She hated the Nara and their ways. Damned bastards.  <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""What do you think?""</span></font><br/><br/>Following this she should her head and turned away, clearly agitated now.  <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""Sending messages out is one thing, but there must be a way to tell if those bastards lie to us....""</span></font> She trailed off, beginning to pace as her thoughts raced.<br/><br/>""I can't guarantee anything but send me if need be and I will speak with the clans. I do carry a long standing with them and if they lie to us, then I'll personally see to the end of their history."" Toyo's sharingan pierced through the tension right into his daughter's eyes. <br/><br/>Nodding slightly and smiling at the ferocity in her father's eyes Kimiko's own eyes flashed and he'd note her sharingan's brief activation before she turned away and a focused look came upon her features. <font color=""#347c17""><span class=""bb-b"">""Good, now all that needs doing is to notify the clan, and deal with the aftermath,""</span></font> she said it almost as if it were a small issue. With her father's opinion, and his assistance available to her, she walked to the center of the clearing and preformed several handseals before firing a small fireball high into the air. It was more smoke than flame, but when it met its peak, it exploded, releasing a thundering sound over the area.<br/><br/>This was how she always called the clan together. It was convenient and required that she waste no time sending a message by word of mouth. The clan would be gathered soon, and when they all arrived she would begin her work. This would be an interesting time they moved into, even if she did not yet realize it.<br/><br/>The winds of change were blowing, after all.</div>"

Now, who do you suspect would kill Shikamoe?”<br/><br/>The Nara heir unclenched her hands and blew out a stream of air before regaining a poise the poise she pretended to have. Who would gain from the death of Shikamoe? There would be no point in killing just one shinobi unless to send a message and even then the message may be vague. <br/>“Is there any more details?

However, if a clan were to discover their secret and attack, it could spell their doom. Any of the clans could discover it, but the people with the best jutsu to uncover secrets would be Uchiha or Hyuga considering their eyes.<br/><br/>“The Uchiha or the Hyuga.” Shikako repeated aloud.<br/><br/>“Good.” Shikaro muttered, nodding his head.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nara, Shikashi</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Land of Fire – Nara Compound, Morning</span><br/><br/>Immediately, at the summon, Shikashi’s shadow stretched and sought to latch onto the others.<br/><br/>“I will say this once more.” He warned, his voice hard and unyielding. “You are not wanted here.”<br/></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Prologue to the Ideal</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">As seasons have cycles, so do war, peace, prosperity and ruin. While the world was once dictated by the wills of the great beasts that live in it, Imperial creatures more regale and refined than any royalty, it has fallen to the fate of man and their clashing desires. This world we share has had more time pass than we can fathom, yet it has never been whole or perfect for a single moment in its history. As with the seasons changing, each lack what others desire. As with each state of the world, there are those that wish for more and it is true that this world has always lacked something....

That was until, in terms of the infinitely etching history of this world, the Great Azure Dragon and the Majestic Vermilion Bird made the choice to put the world into the hands of those whom live within it. To usher in an era of man like none other. It is said, by the eldest of elders within every corner of the world, that there was once a great warlord named Tatasuko and a humble wise man known only as the Sage. The warlord Tatasuko coveted the lands of the Sage and thus conquered them ruthlessly despite the peaceful nature of the Sage and his kin. When the Sage, with mere words, stood up to Tatasuko, the warlord stole the Sage's sons. He murdered one and sacrificed the other to the great Phoenix, whom had shed its title as a mere Vermilion Bird.

The Sage, having lost everything and most importantly his family, sought out the Great Azure Dragon, his sovereign beast and the counterpart to the new Phoenix. The great Dragon, distraught with the pain and suffering of a worthy, faithful example of mankind, presented the Sage with six divine trials:

<div class=""bb-center"">The Trial of Earth was first, and was passed when the Sage used only words to unite those against or free of the Warlord, saving thousands from depravity and darkness.

The Trial of Fire was second, and was passed when the Sage again used only words to stop rebellion and unneeded conflict, once more saving the people.

The Trial of Wind was third, and was passed when the Sage understood his followers, their passions, their goals, and their values, uniting not just the people, but himself within them.

The Trial of Lightning was fourth, and was passed when the Sage was given a quest to leave his people and find the Dragon Shrine. He had saved not only them but himself from destruction, thus was worthy of meeting the Dragon once more. His journey took him through the world and fostered within him an understanding beyond just his people, but one of life itself.

The Trial of Water was fifth, and was passed only when the Sage understood that humility before the Dragon included that of his people and previous trials. He was a living creature, as all things were and so deserved respect.</div>

The Sage ascended to the Dragon Shrine where he was rewarded not only for passing the trials, but also his compassion and love for his son. There, the Dragon gifted the Sage with the Rinnegan - the eyes of the Dragon - and the ability to control chakra, life energy itself. The Sage was then told by the dragon, whom had given him a portion of his own strength, that if the Sage should return with his son and having defeated Tatasuko who himself had the power of the fallen Phoenix, he would be given one final gift. The story goes that a great battle, one that shaped the land itself and changed all of life in a single event, resulted in the victory of the Sage. The Sage then saved his surviving son and banished the Phoenix, but through his compassion for all life he could not bring himself to kill Tatasuko. He allowed the warlord, fallen like the Phoenix he worshiped, to flee into the veins of the Earth, never to be seen again.

The Sage returned to the Dragon with his son soon after, explaining his successes and failures. The Dragon, however, was pleased and told the Sage only that he had passed the final trial: The Trial of Yin and Yang. As he respected all life and did not take it, the Sage was granted the ability to give life by the Dragon, thus ushering in the era of the Sage of Six Paths. The Sage served the Dragon for the remainder of his life and continued to fight the Phoenix, but never attempted to end him. This was the new cycle. This was the new way. Even the Juubi was sealed by the Sage and given a chance at life in ways that stretched the imagination. He even loved his rescued son far too much to intervene with the Curse of Hatred placed upon him by the fallen Phoenix, fated to plague generations henceforth.

The Sage taught his trials, his journeys, his battles and his idealogy to countless apprentices in a style he called Ninshuu. As all life was connected, he wished to use the life energy he was taught to control to bring all life together. He scoured his apprentices that eventually became the first masters in their rights across the world to teach the ways of Ninshuu. As time passed and the Sage did as well, the following generations took Ninshuu and stripped it of its core values thus creating ninjutsu. Sages became Shinobi. Masters became veterans. The teachings and the trials of the Sage have been all but forgotten.

Those that mastered ninjutsu passed it on to only who they trusted most, eventually creating clans. Most have blood ties, and even some have such close ties that they have developed abilities and methods of manipulating chakra only they can use. These have become Kekkei Genkai, bloodline limits. New techniques have been created, limits have been pushed, and the imagination has brought forth power unconsidered by the Sage himself. These clans, ever expanding, growing more powerful with each generation, have recently begun their friction with each other. The world is not black and white anymore. Or, should one say, Azure and Vermilion. There are more sounds than can be counted, more leaders than any treaty can keep content.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Naruto: Jaded Ideals</span> is an <span class=""bb-i"">Ideal</span> alternate universe of the popular Naruto manga and anime. Created with the collaborated ideas of many and a large pool of assistants, this roleplay was designed by yoshua171 to give roleplayers a chance to help have a large hand in a Naruto world before it was even created. The ""ideal"" is not only to create a fantastic roleplay, but to weave a community of like-minded individuals together to create a strong social fabric for the roleplay. Ideas have been bounced around and evolved over time, taking new forms and becoming parts of the roleplay when at first their rough forms may have not as easily fit. This is the true ideal. To sand down any idea and build it back up until it fits perfectly, and create a community that can help in that process. In that sense, the roleplay has thus far been successful, as many new ideas have been and are constantly being incorporated into the roleplay and reviewed by its community.

<span class=""bb-b"">3. The staff/moderators have the privilege of going back and changing any aspect of this roleplay, including characters, events and even dialogue which have happened and/or were not created by /and/ subsequently accepted by Staff; anything that was accepted will require approval from its creator.</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">--Myself and/or any future GMs may go back and make changes where needed, though we cannot do so after a character, or the like, is accepted unless the creator of said character gives permission.</span></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">4. I, and any other GM have the right to end an arc and skip it with a timeskip resulting in whatever edits, additions, and/or plot events we see fit from the last posted point in the Arc, till the point after the time skip. We may kill a character or the roleplay entirely at any time and that they decide whom may create a splinter RP in the same extended universe. I will usually ask to kill someone’s character, and will try to work with people if we need to skip an arc entirely.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">5. Going hand-in-hand with the first rule, I and the other GMs are allowed to interpret metaphor, simile, and the like as I see fit as long as my interpretation does not contradict previous actions in the course of the RP.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">6. No godmodding, metagaming or powerplaying. If you forgot what these mean, read below:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">Godmodding:</span> The practice of controlling someone else’s character without their express permission to do so. Even minor actions can fall into this category. Autohitting falls into this area as well, as does being able to dodge/block anything/everything

<span class=""bb-i"">Metagaming:</span> The practice of your character knowing OOC knowledge that he, she, or it had no way of obtaining. This will include suddenly figuring out someone else’s abilities/jutsu and how it functions after it has been told or narrated to in the IC. Unless there is a logical manner to discover in the information and you successfully achieve such, your character should not and will not know it. I may chew people out for doing this, seriously.

<span class=""bb-i"">Powerplaying:</span> Basically making your character godawful powerful for the sake of being powerful, often without the character having any real substance (personality, backstory/history etc). Not as terrible an offense, and it won’t happen since I’ll be grading CSes. To avoid this consider whether or not your technique/Kekkei genkai/Weapon/Armor abilities can each be counter in some manner and that together they do not make you invincible, if they are counterable, then they’re likely fine.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">7. This roleplay, as a collaborative project, is about working with one another, and while there is certain to be conflict, due to the nature of the Narutoverse, please remain civil. If an issue cannot be solved amongst yourselves and it is not strictly personal, differ to the GM(s), aka myself (for the moment). If it is personal, you will be promptly told to take it to PMs, and if you don’t, there can and will be consequences for disrupting the peace.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">8. My word is law, if I say no to something, or allow something, it’s typically a done deal. If I however missed something, feel free to inform me. I am not beyond reproach.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">9. This is an AU(Alternate Universe) roleplayer, and as such none of the canon characters ever existed excluding the Rikudo Sennin (Sage of Six Paths) and his two sons.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">10. If you need to take a leave of absence, tell myself or someone in the RP who can get the message to me, first. I will be quite aggravated if people disappear all willy-nilly. If you have lost your will to be in the RP, exit your character, or at least tell me you are officially leaving. If you are gone for 3 days without prior notice and you are holding up posting, I will puppet your character out of the way. If you are gone a week, I will begin moving them into position for removal. If you are gone 2 weeks, then your character will be killed off. However, if you tell me, I will merely move your character aside and you may pick up with him or her later on.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">11. Have fun, this is pivotal. Also feel free to scheme and plot against, and with, one another. This RP is primarily meant as a sandbox, though there will be plots and the like. I wish for arcs or the like to occur as naturally as possible so keep in mind that if you have a plan to sabotage a GM plotline and it can be achieved, go ahead! We'll adapt, that's part of the fun!</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">12. When creating a character, at least as we get started, it will be necessary that they be related to or involved with at least two other currently active player characters or at the very least have some way to get involved with everyone. If you wish to start an organization or clan you must have 2 other people with you, unless you want to have them be the founding member, and then simply know other character. This is so no one is in their own isolated corner, thus allowing everyone someone to easily interact with. Later on this rule may, in part, be rescinded.</span></div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Banned/Limited Jutsu"" type=""button"">Banned/Limited Jutsu [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">This list is subject to edits as I may see fit to add other techniques to it. Additionally, game-related jutsu, kekkei genkai, weaponry, or hiden are not considered canon and thus are not available for use.</span>

Shunshin, the Body Flicker technique, and Lightning Release armor cannot be used simultaneously--End of story.

<span class=""bb-u"">Body Replacement Technique</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">The Body-replacement technique requires you first mark an object with your chakra. Once marked, you must execute two handseals to activate it, after which it will activate 2 seconds later switching the user’s position with the marked object.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">Jinchuuriki</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">You may not start as a Jinchuuriki. These must be captured by clans/villages ICly. Additionally, capturing one is a huge pain in the ass; this pain gets progressively worse as the beast’s tail count rises. As such it would be no small endeavor to catch even the One Tailed Shukaku, so don’t go about thinking that kind of thing will be easy.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">Senjutsu</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Senjutsu may be learned at around chuunin rank, but it will be rudimentary at first and require diligent training and development. Tapping into senjutsu will only be useful if one intends to become a fully-fledged sage somewhere down the line. Otherwise any senjutsu talents/abilities you learn are likely to be grossly limited due to lack of skill/training as well as dedication to the art. Sages will be around the same level as, other individuals of their respective rank.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">The Uchiha</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">For the moment the maximum amount of player characters possessing the Sharingan is 5. For now these characters must all be Uchiha, meaning you cannot make someone who has stolen the Sharingan and implanted it. This is subject to change depending on the circumstances and the outcomes of the roleplay.

The Mangekyou Sharingan, when unlocked is not immediately an Uchiha’s default doujutsu. They may continue to use their normal sharingan, choosing when to activate or deactivate their Mangekyou. The Mangekyou must be obtained/awakened ICly with few exceptions.

Amaterasu will be unable to be put out with water or oxygen deprivation as per the usual, but it can be absorbed via seals, or filtered out/sealed in advanced seals/barriers if they are not outright destroyed by the flames first. The flames will move slowly. These weaknesses will apply to scorch release techniques as well, which must be learned from an Uchiha via observation or direct tutoring.

Susanoo may not possess the Yata mirror or the blade that Itachi’s wielded. Its manifestation is not instantaneous and the skeleton/figure created by the technique is incredibly heavy, disallowing high-speed movement almost entirely during its activation.

Both Susanoo and Amaterasu will possess high chakra costs no matter the user’s chakra control.

As the Mangekyou was originally stated to give unique abilities to each Uchiha who awakened it, this will be the case in this RP. You may choose to possess Amaterasu and/or Susanoo, but you do not have to. Any given Mangekyou Sharingan has a maximum of three abilities, two if you wish both to be expansive and particularly potent.

The Sharingan will not allow perfect replication/prediction of people's techniques ever. Replication of people's techniques can certainly happen, but depending on the skill of the Uchiha it will take them less or more training to properly copy someone's technique(s). Prediction will work, but only 2 steps ahead with normal sharingan and 4 with Mangekyou unless you have a unique ability of your own construction for that. Keep in mind that eventually, with overuse of Mangekyou, an Uchiha will go blind and lose their sharingan's abilities overall.

Izanami, Izanagi, Kotoamatsukami, and Kamui are outright banned and thus do not exist in this verse. The same is true for the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">The Rinnegan</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Do not ask for it, for the answer will be, no. It does exist, though the form it exists in are somewhat different. When and if the Rinnegan is implemented only two people, maximum, may have it. Possessing the Rinnegan will not grant the individual all five affinities unless they obtain both types.

The two types of Rinnegan are as such. There is the Paths Rinnegan (eyes of the Dragon), which allows the holder the potential to learn and utilize the six paths. The second form is the Sensory Rinnegan, which allows sensory abilities roughly equivalent to the Byakugan in addition to Onmyouton(yin-yang release). The two forms are equally powerful and equally rare.

Rinbo: Hengoku and Amenotejikara are both banned. Ashura and Indra, the sage’s sons in canon, will not reincarnate, and as such their DNA is not strictly required to possess the Rinnegan.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">Space-Time Ninjutsu</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">While I will not outright ban space-time ninjutsu, I will say that if you create one it is going to receive harsh scrutiny. Furthermore, Hiraishin, aka the Flying Thunder God Technique, will gain certain limitations depending on the skill of the user in the area of fuinjutsu. I will disclose these weaknesses when they are necessary for someone.</div></div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Mechanics"" type=""button"">Mechanics [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">Combat and Jutsu</span></div>
In combat and when describing Jutsu, you must use time, rather than post amount, to measure the duration or prep time of techniques or actions. More or less figure out how long something would take to physically do, figure the vague speed of the technique, and use that to assist in the conclusion.

It would also be quite helpful to state the distance between yourself and the one you’re fighting. Trust me, doing these two things not only helps the other players out, but it will also improve your own skill in combat as you become familiar with the method.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Combat Example"" type=""button"">Combat Example [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Rising to his feet, Kuro took his stance and waited for his enemy to attack him. His opponent, who stood only 8 meters away, braced himself before erupting forwards at high speed, charging Kuro. It would take the shinobi roughly 5-8 seconds to reach him, so Kuro acted swiftly. Weaving handseals and drawing forth his katana, the man had almost crossed the distance when Kuro’s katana ignited in flames as he slashed forwards. The shinobi would have to dodge the three arcs of fire, which would hit him 2 seconds before the man finished crossing the distance.</div></div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">Time and Location Stamps</span></div>
Basically, at the top of every post, please state the time and location of your character. If your character is going from one location to another you can state such. Here’s a helpful format to do so, though the format is not strictly necessary.

<span class=""bb-i"">Location – Time</span>

This assists in keeping everything in the same time so we don’t cause time paradoxes and also so we can document things on the site. Additionally, the time of day should be general, not specific, as we don’t exactly have clocks. So things like what follows:

<div class=""bb-center"">Early Morning
Morning
Midday
Afternoon
Evening
Night
Midnight</div>

As to location, it is good to list both the general location (which land you are in) and specific location (a forest, a clan compound etc etc).

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Stamp Example"" type=""button"">Stamp Example [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-u"">Normal</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Land of Fire/Uchiha Compound – Midday</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Transitional</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Uchiha Compound--&gt;Senju Compound – Midday</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Uchiha Compound – Between Midday and Afternoon</span></div></div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">Positions, Ranks, and Abilities</span></div>
The more effort you put into your character’s history, personality, and clan information the more likely I am to allow your character(s) to have a higher position in a clan or organization, in addition to rank or abilities. If you have the concept for an ability or the like and can’t figure out how to balance it, present it to me and I may be able to help.

After all, I have a deep understanding of how chakra and the like functions in Naruto and I am willing to assist you in balancing things. However, if I outright say no to something, you need to accept that the answer is no. Typically I will give suggestions as to what you could change to balance something. If you want the technique, more often then not those suggestions are required.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">Management System</span></div>
--<span class=""bb-i"">Character Sheets and Bingo Sheets</span>--
When you wish to join the RP and/or create a new character you will take the character skeleton, you are free to format it however you wish, but all the non-optional sections must be present. Once finished it will be sent to me in PM. If you have a PM conversation with me already, please send it in that. Once that is approved it will be posted in the character bin tab after which point you must fill out a Bingo Sheet, which will be posted publicly. It should be noted that Bingo sheets include information that should be known about a character within the In Character thread. If your character has not learned more specific information via combat with the other character, being shown, or told said information than they should not have it. If there is no real way that they could have obtained said information, or were not shown doing so legitimately then the offender should be prepared to be subjected to the wrath of the GMs as it will mean you have metagamed.

Thank you for your time.</div></div>

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">Clans</span></div>

If you intend to make a clan regardless of whether or not it possesses a Kekkei genkai, hiden, or otherwise you must first fill out a clan sheet. After this you need at least two other people to be in that clan with you, this rule will persist for a good while until we have enough people interacting that there'll be no reason to institute this rule. To explain why this is necessary is simple, the rule is there so that everyone will easily have others to interact with at the very least, directly in their own clan, rather than having hundreds of small clans each with a single player character. The Clan Sheet is as follows:

<span class=""bb-b"">Clan Name:</span>
<img src=""""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Country of Origin:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Hierarchy and Focus:</span> Include how they govern themselves, their general skills (are they metalworkers, assassins, etc), whether or not they have a kekkei genkai/tota or hiden. Any other pertinent information.

<span class=""bb-b"">Miscellaneous:</span> Any information that doesn’t fit elsewhere.

Tatasuko.
<img src=""http://i57.tinypic.com/mhbxw9.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Country of Origin:</span>
N/A.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hierarchy and Focus:</span>
The Tatasuko clan is governed by a group of elders, typically members of the clan who possess their kekkei genkai some of which who have experienced combat, and some whom have not. While there is no true head of the Tatasuko clan, currently Zume Tatasuko serves as something similar as he speaks for the clan. As a whole the Tatasuko are very peaceful, respectful people with the majority of them possessing neither kekkei genkai nor their specialized chakra affinity.

The Tatasuko clan primarily stay within their cave system known as the Hahaoya no jōmyaku to those few who are aware of any of its many entrances, or its existence at all. Every so often one member of their clan or another can be noted by their typically black clothing and straw hats, which dangle similarly black pieces of cloth to obscure their faces.

Generally the Tatasuko are looked upon as enigmatic peacekeepers, tending to stay away from conflict and if that is not possible, they mitigate or cease it altogether. They prefer to stay out of the affairs of the world at large and do well to stay in the shadows, hence most referring to them as shades. Publicly the Tatasuko clan have no known export or focus, though it is rumored that, for whatever reason, they defend the caves they live within. It is known that they consider the Hahaoya no jōmyaku to be sacred.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
The advent of the Tatasuko clan is largely held in mystery, or at least kept from the ears of the public. Nonetheless it is said that the Tatasuko originate from the Tatasuko of myth, making their clan's founder the ancient rival to the Sage of Six Paths and the Avatar to the Phoenix, who has since been banished by the aforementioned sage.

Following this their founder is said to have fled into the caves, having been spared by the Sage. Then he and his brother, both of whom remain unnamed, spread their blood to others, and they did the same. Gradually they were gathered together and naturally the clan formed as a result, remaining within their caves where they stay today, only emerging for resources and, at times, to assist in the resolution of conflict.

<span class=""bb-b"">Miscellaneous:</span>
Rather than have one point of origin the Tatasuko clan's base of operations is only known to dwell within the cave system. The problem lies in the fact that this cave system runs all over the world connecting to a great many other cavern complexes making it extremely difficult to locate their dwelling places. As to their origins, well such are irrelevant for many countries have unknowingly contributed to their growth not that such is extensive. While not a well known fact, or a known one at all, the Tatasuko clan does not consist of a large sum of individuals numbering at perhaps 200 maximum, with the majority being civilian individuals.</div></div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Country of Origin:</span> Country of Wind- Deserts
<span class=""bb-b"">Hierarchy and Focus:</span>

The Monzaemon are divided into two branches, depending on their specialty, the Bunraku and Kabuki branches. Both are highly competitive against eachother, but strict rules, and a no-nonsense attitude of their leader prevent any large insurrections, even with the overall pragmatic and amoral attitude of the clan.

 The Bunraku branch specializes in puppetry, and often are seen wearing face paint as part of their art. They brag on the longevity of their creations. Their leader (and leader of the clan), Uemura Monzaemon, is famous for his own supposed immortality. One of it's most famous members is the reclusive Masaru, who created human puppetry. The branch deeply worried about them, the idea that someone else beat them to such a brilliant idea, but other than that have no problem how they are made. He's famously rejected every single apprentice that had come to him.

The Kabuki branch focuses on more liberal and artistic uses of the Chakra Thread Jutsu. Their leader is Kawatake Monzaemon, brother of Uemura. He is the voice of the clan, speaking and acting on it's behalf, famous for his combination of idealism and pragmatism. It's most famous member is Zushina Yachirau, the tactician of the clan, who's sharp mind has led many victories to the clan. An enigma in the clan is the high number of assassinations around the desert that bear marks of this clan, without any name attached to them

Overall the clan is known for their hit and run style, and for their particular disdain for other clans. 


<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> In the Desert in the land of Wind, resources have always been scarce, and bandits rampant. Many small villages were wiped out by raiders looking for supplies to survive til tommorow. In this environment, Okuni Monzaemon was born, a woman who had created the chakra thread technique. She used this technique to become the savior of Gobi, a small desert town. She protected it from the bandits who came in, and fear of her spread throughout the desert. 

She taught her technique to a man named Chikamatsu. During one defense of their town, he panicked as a raider knocked him away. His taijutsu wasn't enough with the threads, and he grabbed whatever he could, a corpse of another raider, which he manipulated to surprise strike his assailant. In that moment, puppetry was born. He created his own puppets which could fight for him, and he slowly loaded with more and more weapons. 

They taught their children a combination of the two, Okuni creating the Kabuki branch, and Chikamtsu created the Bunraku clan. As their power grew, their successors started to lust after more of it. The original defense of the desert was forgotten, though the clan remained territorial all this time.

About 10 years ago, the clan was under the control of Kenshin Monzaemon, an honor-bound idealist. Most members of the clan couldn't stand him, but his power was real. He insisted on decreasing the power of the clan, and increasing it's reliance on diplomacy. The tension snapped when he declared an alliance with a clan outside of the desert. His Nephew, Uemura saw that this was going to destroy the clan, and he couldn't let the man keep up his seat of power.

In the dead of night, he attempted an assassination on the Head of the clan. He was caught in the middle of his attempt. Kenshin was enraged at his lack of honor, and fought him. After a few minutes, it seemed obvious who was winning, as he landed a lethal blow on his nephew.... but his nephew did not die. Neither did he die from the next strike, or the one after it. After all that fighting, Uemura finally landed a scratch on Kenshin. It was enough with the poison he'd implanted, though Kenshin would destroy his entire collection.

In the meanwhile, his brother Kawatake helped with the coup, killing loyalist to the head. Uemura had staged a successful clan. He looked at the weakened state of his clan in disgust, and promised the clan 3 things. 1) They would become renown in the shinobi world once again. 2) Everything the Desert Wind touched would be theirs 3) The destruction of any clan that an alliance had been declared with. 

Those were the first and last words he addressed to the assembled clan. He handed much of his control to his younger brother, Kawatake. Uemura felt his brother would be better in the limelight than him, but his strength was needed to rule the clan.

Since that day he's focused heavily on the build-up and order of the clan. Anything else, including diplomacy he felt was unnecessary. The clan's approach to diplomacy was surprise attacks on and assassinations on any clan they felt a threat.</div>"

I like to hear this! ^_^

I was going to call them the Antare clan. They can be just a small group of, perhaps wandering, fuinjutsu masters/learners for the moment.

We can figure out more details once we have at least one other person willing to join :)

The IC is now up and everyone can post.

Everyone who has a clan/ group Idea in progress, can you please summarize it. I want it advertised on the front page.

So far I know we've got Monzaemon up and running. Tatasuko has a sheet, but no members. 7 Swordsman of the Mist looks like the closest to being done. Uchiha wants to be run, as well as appearantly a Cloud-based Sealing group(Antare). I've heard a Ino-Cho-Shika in the works.

Anyone who is working on something please put it below. Doesn't have to be filled out sheet completely, please just put:

Name
Concept
Who you've got
What do you want (looking for any positions to be filled?)

Don't need history or anything, I just want to help this get going. Afterall, who wants to RP!? (Everyone shouts yes enthusiastically {Yes, I just Godmodded the player OOCwise, suck it})</div>"

Well there are several clans that need bolstering. The Uchiha, The Tatasuko, and the Senju clan are each in need of characters/players.

Alright, I want a little description of what everyone is doing or planning on entering, you can PM me it. I know we're all doing introductions, but I think we also need to hit the road running a bit. If you don't know what to do, a GM (Me, Yosh, Lost) will definitely help.. The basic premise is a lot of suspense is building around the happenings, the important clans have had a member murdered, and minor clans are going to hear about it. The clans are not going to stay isolated for long.

Immediate plans:

Monzaemon- We're pretty much all going to the town of Gobi. It's a raid pretty much, stealing poison, interrogating people there. Yes, surprises planned, alot of clan around don't like us coming to town (One in particular we will see). Uemura won't be going, but I'll be playing the events there.

Uchiha- ???

Nara-???? 

What's on most people's mind to do?

Arc 1- 'Suspicion'

Clans are becoming increasing suspicious of eachother following a strange string of murders that have affected nearly all the large clans, and caused nerviousness in the smaller ones. Each of the clans have various reactions.

Many of the clans use this opportunity to declare war against their enemies, striking out at nearby towns, and clans. 
A small few of the wiser ones see that something is amiss, and think the conflict created by these murders was intentional.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Aleksey has messy black hair and is pale. He’s fairly tall, being 5’10 and has black eyes. His in game appearance is the same, along with his armour, cat ears and tail, of course. Also has a cat which he tamed a while back that just sleeps on his head. He calls it Steven.

Tames beasts. Success depends on the user’s level and the beast’s level. Alex wants to tame a dragon one day. Cooldown: 30 seconds

<span class=""bb-i"">Summon animal companion</span>
Alex can use this spell to summon one of the beasts he has befriended with &lt;&lt;Tame Beast&gt;&gt;. Currently, his familiars are as follows: His cat Steven, Thomas the Tank Turtle and Alan the Annoying (a crow). All knicknamed by Alex. Cooldown: 60 seconds

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> To sum it up in a few words, Alex doesn’t find much fun in life. He lives and continues living, but he doesn’t really find fun with it. He doesn’t really have aspirations or anything either, and his life’s alright. He has some measure of investment in Alfheim online, if only to see what happens in the end. He enjoys sprinting around and destroying people with his greatsword.

Shiho stands at 5'11'', making her quite tall in comparison to other girls.

In Game Appearance

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://2ch.hk/aa/src/76272/14199475033550.gif""/></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Shishido Shiho

<span class=""bb-b"">In game name:</span> Shishirou

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Pooka

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon of Choice:</span> Shiho prefers to compensate her now small stature by using a katana that is about the same size as her whole body. 

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://www.laughingreaper.com/siteimages/prop_gurren-lagann_kamina-katana-beside-sheath.jpg""/></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Magic Spells:</span> Strength Buff Magic, Defense Buff Magic, Hit Point Buff Magic, Speed Buff Magic, well, you catch the drift, no? Also, the contraries of these ones that are debuffs.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Shiho, in real life, is a big otaku with little to no friends. This is mainly because she acts indifferent to others more out of shyness than actually being cold. You see, Shiho has a height complex, given that she is taller than most of the girls she knows, and also some of the boys she has gotten to know. Though not extremely, mortally shy to the point of not being able to talk, it still is hard to get her talking at first, and most of the time she will just answer with simple hand or head motions, and mentioning her height will also take that out and she'll remain silent for the rest of the time you are around her. 

However, once she is used to you after some minutes, an hour tops, she'll start talking nonstop, making jokes and things of the like whenever she can. In ALO, given that her complex is eliminated because of her tiny avatar, she is, oh, so very talkative and hyper that it is hard to imagine her being quiet. She also likes to change her tone of voice and quote anime or video game characters from time to time, just for the fun of it, and she will also mark you as her best friend if you ever get at least one of her references.

Curved Blade Sword


Magic Spells: 

Transformation Magic

Illusion Replica Magic 


Personality: Takashi is a flexible person. He tends to be outgoing up front but he keeps a cautious eye on most people. He is hesitant to put complete trust in anyone because he was always taught to only trust family. This carries over to ALO because he tends to not trust other races as much as his own. In battle he tends to take an analytically perspective of his foe over actual fighting. He tends to be the fighter who blocks first to judge his opponents sword speed and cut  them down afterwards. As far as battle preferences go he would rather fight without magic but isn't against using it to survive.

When soloing he relies on his pet iguanodon <a href=""http://digiport.bster.net/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&amp;g2_itemId=419&amp;g2_serialNumber=2"">Aoi</a> to deliver the majority of his DPS.

&lt;&lt;Tame Beast&gt;&gt;
Cait Sith Racial Spell, attempts to tame targeted Beast type enemy. The chance of success depends both on the level of the player and the beast. Only one beast maybe tamed at a time. Channelled, 30 seconds.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Fuyuko is not what she seems.
As one of the many male players to use a female avatar, Fuyuko is the personification of Manabu's easygoing personality and adult sense of humour. It probably helps that he is often drunk while playing and treats everyone to a positive, no-fucks given attitude and a sense of universal goodwill often forgotten in PvP online games.
That isn't to say that he is a pacifist. Fuyuko loves nothing more than a good dungeon run, working the front lines as the most midgety tank in history. Despite his status as an... eccentric, Fuyuko is a well-meaning and generous young man, though he often hides this behind a veneer of dry humour and an almost tsundere degree of fuax denial.

Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/sh0gxiR.jpg""/>

Except in game his avatar won't actually have the same armor set up..obviously. Ariva's armor is a solid white all around and allows for quick movement. Also that picture doesn't have cat ears or a tail, but I'm sure we can just...imagine them there. 
Weapon of Choice: Bow and Arrow  

Personality: Rhett has been playing MMOs for as long as he can remember. Or..well when they actually became popular and available to him. When he found out about ALFheim online he was all over it. He created his female avatar because he is not one to care about what others think if they found he he was really a guy. All it is about is having fun in the game. It's not like he is going to meet the girl of his dreams playing a VRMMO right? So no reason to worry.  That being said, he is one to really delve into character as soon as he logs in. He will only go by his name and really try his best to play the part. He made his character as a DPS and he takes pride in knowing the massive amounts of damage he can cause to bosses and enemies.   He always prefers to fight with others and will always try to party up. He loves parties and having fun but he can get serious when it comes to dungeon raids and bosses. When in combat he prefers to keep quiet. But out of combat he is rather talkative.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic Spells:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Flame Weapon</span> - A temporary self-cast buff that adds fire elemental damage to the user's weapon, creating a flaming visual effect on the weapon's blade. Words of Power: ""<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Ek hemta brenna aldrnari seiðr, hata allr órr andskoti</font></span>"" (""I summon the burning fire enchantment, to destroy all our enemies"")

<span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> - A temporary self-cast buff that greatly increases the user's weapon damage and speed while also greatly increasing all damage taken. Healing potions have no effect while Berserk is active. While Berserk is active, a red flame aura visual effect appears around the user. Words of Power: ""<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Ek heimta kraptr berserkr drengr</font></span>"" (""I summon the strength of the berserk warrior"")

<span class=""bb-i"">Nova</span> - A powerful spell that knocks back and inflicts heavy fire damage within a moderate radius around the user. Extremely high mana cost and spell chanting time. Words of Power: ""<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Ek bjóða brenna móðr uphiminn eða fold undir vega hvatvetna at bella standa inn minn syn. Hníga hverr helgrind eða frjáls hiti brenna jafnan</font></span>"" (""I call upon the burning wrath of the heavens above and the world below to smite everything that dares to stand in my sight. Open every gate of hell and let free the flame that burns for all eternity."")

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> In the real world, Natsuki's quiet and reserved appearance makes it difficult to determine whether she has an actual personality. She rarely speaks unless directly spoken to, and even then, she tends to answer with a short sentence at most. In the world of ALfheim Online, Natsuki is much more bold and fearless, although she still has a tendency to choose her words carefully. Natsuki takes the game quite seriously, at times becoming so immersed with the game that she finds it difficult to distinguish between the virtual world of ALO and the real world. Amusingly, her serious attitude towards the game sometimes causes other players to suspect that she is an NPC.

1454,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-28 23:40:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Arina took a slow breath as her arm drew back the string with the arrow to reach a ready position. Once she was done she waited a few seconds before opening her fingers ever so slightly and let the arrow fly. The arrow flew across the desolate ground and struck the undead horror in the head, killing it.  It burst into small bright sparkles before dissipating. His comrades were swiftly taken care of as well. She just needed to strike first. 

  It was a wondrous day really. This day had been set aside for quite some time. About two or three guilds sent some of their best troops who were in the same level range as each other to take on this dungeon instance together. Arina belonged to one of those guilds, so naturally she was going to take pride in her Guild over the others.  But she wanted to expand her friends list and meet new players. Players of other races and all that jazz. Arina had been quiet through almost the entire dungeon. That's not the thing to be thinking about though. 

  This instance was among the first of many many more to come. This one was a journey down into a crypt that was said to only have two bosses and be relatively quick to do. Their group was in the right range for numbers and they had been going through rather quickly, seeing as how most of them were new to this dungeon. Arina was, and she was having the time of her life.  They had already taken out one of the bosses and now they were making the final push to the final boss room. Arina had no idea what kind of loot would be rewarded to her for finishing this dungeon. She could barely contain her excitement. Or well..she could. She had been doing that for quite some time. 

  The group pushed on, with the clacking of weapons against armor and armor against the stone floor ringing all throughout the halls. The most experienced players were at the front of the group, leading the others.  After a few more minutes of walking the group came upon a very large door and they stopped. The three most experienced players in front signaled a halt and turned around to face the group.  ""Well, here we are. The Final Boss door."" A few cheers were heard but since most of the players here were inexperienced to this dungeon they stood quietly and listened to the man speak. Arina was among that crowd. 

 ""This boss is relatively easy, with only a few varying attack patterns. He won't be anywhere near as easy as the first boss though, so prepare yourselves.""   Arina nodded in agreement with him and then put her bow on her back as she had been holding it this entire time. Now one of the other players in front raised a hand to signal the attention of the mass. He was a spriggon. ""The best way to combat this boss is to split up into groups of about five or six and switch off and attack in patterns. Mages try to vary yourselves around a bit as you will most likely be stationary.""  Next the other player in front, a female Undine, raised her hand. ""Healers party up with each other to stick together and focus your healing abilities. Your skills will be boosted in groups.""

Then after a few seconds of silence the man in the middle raised his hand again and a smile was on his face. ""Does everyone know what to do?"" There was silence.   ""Like I said earlier,"" He started again, ""This boss is fairly simple. We should have no problems with this one. Now, party up with your respective players and once everyone is ready we will take this boss down!""  This time a loud cheer came out of the mass, what followed was quick movements all around and chattering that grew in volume. 

Arina had no one approach her and she stood in silence. She didn't know who to party up with! She didn't see any other archers, though there had to be some! She was a pure DPS character, she would need some balance in a group. Preferebly with a tank or two. They already had healers...the partying was just for attack groups.  But still, she didn't know what to do.   So she decided to walk around and see if anything would happen. Her long hair moving with her body as she walked. ""Come on Arina, find a group."" She muttered to herself as she continued to walk.</div>"
1455,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-29 01:46:00,Hebigami Shiho,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With a quick slash of her sword, the undead enemy in front of her was no more. Shishirou had joined an expedition with some other guys, since it sounded like fun, though she had to join alone. She put her katana again in its sheath for the dramatic effect. If a kanji were to appear in the enemy she just slashed, it'd be the perfect badass scene, however it only disappeared into digital bits, and Shishirou sighed, before walking after the others in front of her. 

This was it. When Shiho, no, Shishirou, felt better, inside this game of ALO that let all of her worries slip away and makes her complex go away. She looked like a child, yes, but she was one damn happy child. She carried her katana around in her hand, and her violin in her back. It seemed odd, to see a little girl walking around wrapped in armor with a katana in her hand and with a violin strapped to her back. In fact, she changed one to the other constantly in battle, to apply buffs and whatnot with the music of her violin, and then approach and attack with her katana. 

Shishirou usually gathered with a group of friends in ALO, but today, they had decided to stay in that dreadful world they dare call the real life. <font color=""#fff200"">""Blegh.""</font> She grunted. <font color=""#fff200"">""Who needs a boyfriend anyway, when you can slay mobs.""</font> She said, in a mocking tone while she walked. Still, now that she was all left all alone without her usual group of misfits, she didn't have anyone to team up with. She was taken last time by a group who thought of her as a pet, but well, what could she say? Shishirou was a real veteran at these kinds of games, she even made more EXP than the other, and this time, they had left her out because of that. It mostly had something to do with the fact that they were colossal n00bs, but she didn't like to mock them. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Gah, they irritate me! Stupids! Who do they think they are! Grrrr!""</font> Like a little beast, she started retorting around with irritation, until she finally gave up and sighed. <font color=""#fff200"">""Fine, I'll just find someone else to team up with! Now, who'd be someone cool to partner up with? I don't really care 'bout balance, as long as they look cool. Uh, an Spriggan or a Cait Sith would be <span class=""bb-i"">purrfect</span>.""</font> She hoped to attract some interested guys with her pun, and she looked around for a reaction. Though, the only reaction she received was that of looks full of pity or that were yelling <span class=""bb-i"">'Who let a child into the group?'</span> <font color=""#fff200"">""Fine then. I hope the monster eats you aaaall up!""</font> She said, with puffed cheeks before continuing with her search. 

It was going to be fruitless, so she decided to do something a bit more extreme. She found some guy, about the same height as her real self, and started climbing unto him without any warning whatsoever. <font color=""#fff200"">""Just stay still for a moment, I'll be done right away.""</font> She said, while the guy grunted and complained. After finally arriving to his shoulders, she stood up on them. <font color=""#fff200"">""Heeeey! Is anyone out there still looking for someone to party up with!? I'm pretty much free right now, so we can team up! Heeey! Hey!""</font> She shouted, in an attempt to catch the attention of anyone who was still out there and without someone to party with, smiling all the while.</div>"
1456,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-29 03:48:00,Lord Santa,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex was kind of bored. The dungeon had brought a little fun, but kill one mob of undead in a room, killed them all in every room. It was very much a pattern finding game, and there was only so much they could spice it up with. The first boss had brought some flavour, but whatever flavour it brought still faded. Well, it’s not like Alex had anything better to do.

As the (rather large) party arrived at the final boss door, their leaders addressed them.
“Well, here we are. The Final Boss door.” One of them said.
“Yay.” Alex said cheerlessly.
Alex didn’t really listen as they talked. He was kind of getting bored of the taming game. He seriously doubted he would find a dragon in Alfheim, and he was pretty sure that if he did find one, it’d be a boss, but that didn’t stop him from hoping. It was too bad, but his current familiars weren’t that amazing. The thing was, it was really hard to get something like a unicorn, because they were too high level. The thing was, his 3 familiars would probably kick the ass of a same levelled dire bear, but they didn’t look like that. A cat, a large turtle and a slightly-larger-than-normal crow. Yes, they would kick a bear’s ass any day of the week, assuming it was the same level, but it didn’t change the fact that a bear was a lot more impressive than a cat, unless the cat was a lion or something.

Alex wasn’t really listening to the leader’s speech. Something about the boss’s attack patterns or something. Alex was more concerned about his own problems. He decided that after the boss fight, he’d try to tame a really good bear. Sure, it might be better to get a lion or a tiger, but he already had Steven for the cat department, and Steven would get jealous. And besides, bears were cool in their own right. Maybe he’d get a polar bear for the coolness.

Alex drifted out of his trance and found that they were splitting off to make groups, for some reason. Alex looked around to find that he didn’t have anyone to go with. Yes, he was in a guild, but he was more of a ghost member, and the only reason the leader wanted him on this party was probably because he was tired of Alex’s antics. Just as he was wondering what to do, Alex heard a voice cry out. 
""Heeeey! Is anyone out there still looking for someone to party up with!? I'm pretty much free right now, so we can team up! Heeey! Hey!"" The voice yelled.
Alex turned around and almost fell over in surprise. A blond haired girl was riding the shoulders of a seemingly unwilling person, trying to get some group mates. This was certainly new. Alex reluctantly raised his hand, trying to get her attention. 
“Yeah, over here. I don’t have a group either.” He said.</div>"
1457,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-29 05:11:00,GrandzHelios,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Another day on ALO and another dungeon Kite thought as his group ventured through this dungeon. He had no idea why he was brought along. In all honesty Kite was not a trusting player so to avoid being PVPed in the field by his comrades he tends to not have comrades. That was probably his mind set when he chose to be a black winged Spriggan. Yeah, it does make him seem shy but he didn't really care. The only point to logging onto ALO was to hack and slash through ghouls and goblins. He only joined a guild because he was forced to.

He was ganged up by a bunch of other Spriggans and pressured to play with their emblem on his armor. That was all his guild could make him do since he gave absolute protestation to teaming up with other Spriggans and hunting down monsters in his time killer. Besides who would want to wait until some other people actually take the time to log in so he could kill some. That thought brings him to today's issue: He was dragged along to this mass dungeon raid. Kite was one of the more skilled members of his guild so he was pulled in some multi-guild attack on this dungeon. Since he boycotted parties he tends to avoid the conflict unless he one-hitted a few weakened enemies. In fact he has avoided taking any damage this entire raid.

Now that they were at the final boss room everyone here felt like they had to make a speech. They were saying something like everyone should join a party of five to six members. Kite didn't especially want to join up with anyone but I guess it couldn't hurt just for this room. Kite was confident in his abilities but he was nowhere near the strongest in this room. ""<font color=""#1b1464"">If they need people to help them hack and slash then I guess I could use some too.</font>""  He said as he continued to walk around the scattering and joining masses. Then he seemed to have walked into a person with a little blonde on their shoulders. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Sorry about that.""</font> He instinctively stated after bumping into a person.</div>"
1458,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-29 17:12:00,Lennon79,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Near the front of the raid stood two figures trading blows that hardly seemed to shake one another. The Undead Warrior would lunge at its enemy, only to see its strike deflected by a massive shield and suffer a counter attack that barely scraped its health bar. The tit for tat struggle would have lasted hours had a stray arrow not struck the monster from the side. Seeing her prey dissolve into glittering lights, the player gave a petulant sigh, disappointed that she hadn't scored a single kill so far. She <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> rather proud of how well she had held aggro, but with the sheer number of players in the raid it was near pointless; there were almost too many to kill. Deciding that even an assist was better than nothing, the girl slammed her overlarge shield into the ground to celebrate the kinda-victory before following the mass of bodies to the next room.

She joined in the ragged cheer as the more experienced players outlined their plans, which were thankfully simple enough. These kind of dungeons didn't often have adds in the boss rooms though, so she was willing to admit to feeling a bit superfluous; even a fully specced tank couldn't hope to hold aggro against a raid boss alone. Perhaps that was the reasoning behind having many smaller groups though, to share the incoming damage between the highest number of targets..? <span class=""bb-i"">Ah, the hell with it...</span> Those in charge presumably knew what they were doing and she wasn't going to step on anyone's toes just yet, which led smoothly along to her next problem... finding a party. While she had been second-guessing people, half of the raid had organised itself.

The diminutive tank wandered through the throng, trying to find a group lacking in heavy armour to attach herself to. Fortunately, opportunity called in the form of another tiny girl, this one hanging off some poor sod's shoulders... <font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">'Hey midget! Sign me up.'</span></font> She approached the girl and her unwilling steed with a game-winning grin. <font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">'I like your style. Call me Da Loli... Or Fuyuko. Preferably Da Loli.'</span></font> In spite of her bombastic introduction, Fuyuko paid close attention to the girl's equipment, determining that her build was most likely either DPS or off-tanking. In either case, she could be a good foil to Fuyuko's absolute tank style. She also noted a handful of others close by, including two males, one of whom looked suspiciously like he was trying to escape, and a lost looking girl. <span class=""bb-i"">A two-hander, a one-hander and an archer; all DPS builds. Outstanding.</span> <font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">'And you three fine darlings, yaranaika?'</span></font> Fuyuko gave them her best suggestive grin, fully aware that she had most likely scared them all off.</div>"
1459,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-30 03:34:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With a broad sweep of her flaming sword, Athena dealt the finishing blow to two Undead Warriors standing before her. As the monsters fell to their knees in defeat, they each gave a monstrous cry before falling to the ground and exploding into countless shards of light. The elegant longsword in Athena's grasp wavered slightly as she began feeling the mental fatigue from the fierce battle. Unlike most of the other players in the dungeon group, Athena was one of the only solo players who decided to come along. With nobody to fight alongside her, the mental strain of the battles was multiplied several times. If it had been Natsuki Kawaguchi of the real world, not Athena of ALfheim Online, who stood in her place at that moment, she was certain that she too would have fallen to her knees from the physical exhaustion.

Returning her sword to its sheath by her side, Athena made her way to the front lines, where the other players were gathering to discuss tactics for the dungeon boss just ahead. Glancing at her HP meter in the corner of her sight, she saw that her HP had managed to drop to about 60%. As a solo player, Athena compensated for her lack of strength in numbers by using self-cast buff spells to increase her own strength. One of her favored buffs was <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span>, which greatly increased her attack power to allow her to fight against superior numbers, but it also cost much of her HP after each battle.

Reaching into her potion pouch, Athena searched around its contents to look for a bottle of Healing Potion to recover her HP. To her annoyance, the pouch was emptier than she remembered it to be. All that remained inside the pouch was a bottle containing red liquid and a Mana Potion bottle.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Damn it! I forgot to restock on potions before I came here!""</font> Athena muttered under her breath, as she opened the bottle in her hands and drank the red healing liquid inside. Even with her HP now recovering to its maximum amount, it was uncertain that she would be able to survive the upcoming battle with the dungeon boss.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">I can't turn back now, I've gone too far to just turn around and give up.</font></span> Athena sighed to herself in defeat. It seemed like she had no choice but to find a group to party up with. Even though she had the Battle Healing skill to passively recover her HP, the healing rate wouldn't be able to help her survive a boss battle without backup. Evaluating her surroundings, it seemed that most of the players gathered around were already forming parties and were starting to discuss battle strategies. Her heart sank as she wandered through the crowd of players. Everyone had their backs turned to her, busy talking amongst themselves.

Just was she was on the verge of giving up finding players to form a party with, Athena suddenly caught sight of a tiny Cait Sith player wandering the crowds.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Hey, you - wait!""</font> Athena called out as she followed the Cait Sith, pushing through the players who were standing in her way, wishing the player who created the Cait Sith character hadn't made it so small and hard to find in a crowd. After much shoving and searching, Athena found herself standing in front of a group of five players: three of the players were Cait Siths, one Pooka, and a Spriggan. If there was a sixth player, it would have meant that this group was a full party as well, but Athena couldn't see a sixth person.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Sorry for the intrusion, but if the five of you are creating a party for the boss battle ahead, I don't suppose you have room for a solo player?""</font> Athena asked, with a slight polite bow of her head.</div>"
1460,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-30 04:13:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As Arina continued to wander the crowd of people that was slowly becoming more and more segregated as everyone was finding their respective groups. Arina stood on her tip toes to look to the back of the crowd and saw many of the healers together just like the person at the front said. She always had a soft spot for the healers. Being of her build she loved being the one to cause massive damage to the mobs and adds and the bosses. But the players who play as healers, give that damage dealing power to solely heal their teammates and themselves. 

She would probably never play as a healer. That just wasn't her style. But this isn't anytime to be thinking about soft spots for other classes. As she came back to reality, or virtual reality, she bumped into a rather tall looking male who was of a tank build. When he saw her bow on her back he smiled to her. There were three other male standing next to him. ""Hey guys, I found a-"" But he was cut off by his buddy who was waving him at the end of the group as he brought up a mage to add to their group. 
His focus quickly shifted away and he seemed to forget about her. Arina gave a small huff and then turned away. 

Before she knew it she had locked her eyes on another Cait Sith that was sitting on top of another player who seemed to be rather annoyed by the situation he was in. 
Something about that player caught her eye, and now as she watched she saw a few solo players come up to each other around her and begin speaking. This was her chance, they had a tank! Who was...like..a midget. 
No way. 
<font color=""yellow"">'And you three fine darlings, yaranaika?'</font>

Arina didn't even realize how close she had gotten to them. She was definitely talking to her. Well, looks like she found a group to run with. The archer shifted her shoulders a bit before smiling to all of them. 
<font color=""red"">""I'd love to party up with you all. And...""</font> She pointed a finger to Fuyuko. <font color=""red"">""You are by far the smallest tank I have ever seen.""</font>
She couldn't help but laugh. She meant no disrespect. 
Before she could say anything else another player approached them and asked to join up with them. Arina smiled to her. <font color=""red"">""I believe so. With that, that makes us a full party.""</font> she smiled to all of them yet again. 
Then she waved her hand a bit to each of them. <font color=""red"">""I'm Arina by the way. Nice to meet you all!""</font>

But before proper introductions could go underway the large collected, and now organized, mass was seemingly hushed by the three main leaders at the front as before. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""I trust you all have found your respective groups?</span> He cast his eye through the large crowd of players. When he was done a large smile crept up on his face. <span class=""bb-b"">""In that case, let's get this over with.""</span>
The three players turned around and all pushed on the boss's large door to open it and let every player through. 
Arina looked to her group and followed along with them. <font color=""red"">""This is it I suppose..""</font>

Once inside the air seemed to be filled with the stench of death and decay, as well as soot. The crackling of flames could be heard all around and the room seemed to stretch on for miles in the endless darkness. The only light came from the small sparks from the random fires littered around the ground. 
Players all filed into the room and everyone was readying their weapons for the coming fight. 
Once everyone was inside the door slowly came to close behind them. Once it did the room was almost pitch black if not for the small fire light. 
In this darkness no one said a word. Then came a noise. The sound of rhythmic beating, too loud to be coming from any player. Even though the sound was loud, it was also loud and caused the ground to shake beneath their feet.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Le Boss"" type=""button"">Le Boss [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/IZ2BEqB.jpg""/> I'm not going to keep ripping off Dark Souls, I swear.</div></div>

After a few seconds the beating seemed to speed up and then it came back down to its regular pace. Then the torches all around the room lit the room up all at once and there the boss stood, in all of its grotesque glory. The room was very large due to their large party size. The boss towered over the players and seemed to not even know that they were there. Every new player to this instance was anxiously waiting for what to do. 
Arina was among that group. The grotesque mass of chained bodies for a boss? What were the game developers thinking?! That was disgusting! 
But before she had time to react the boss reached his body covered arms up and then let a loud roar stumble a few players. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Tanks! Hold it's aggro while our DPS does their job! Healers! Keep an eye out and have your spells ready! This boss has a small move set for close range attacks and virtually no ranged attack except for one. But that's no threat to use if his aggro is held! Let's go!""</span> With that said the player brought his large shield up and ran at the beast, a battle cry on his lips the entire time he ran. 
Tanks from all the groups followed suite, and the melee DPS players all started to move around the boss to start dealing damage and let the tanks hold him

Arina knew she wasn't going to be getting close, but she liked this because she could keep an eye on her teammates. As she moved back she looked around and found the ones she teamed up with. All of them were close range...

After being approached by another little girl, she got off the shoulders of the guy she was on until now and landed safely on the floor with a childish gesture. <font color=""#fff200"">""Nice to meet you, Da loli! I am Shishirou, but you can just call me Shirou if you want. Or the other loli.""</font> She said, with a big grin on her face. With all the other newcomers, her grin soon turned into a big smile, going from ear to ear. After Arina's short self intro, she was about to proceed with her own, when the boss told them it was time to move. <font color=""#fff200"">""No need to be so gloomy, Arina! It'll be okay, I'm sure of it! I bet we'll make the strongest party ever! Yosh! Moete kita zo!""</font> She said, turning her voice deeper in the last bit. 

She followed into the boss room along with everyone else. Well, the other one wasn't so much of a pushover, but wasn't really difficult. It would be okay, probably. Not that you would die in real life if you died here... Okay, that was a gloomy thought. Shishirou slapped her cheeks to prepare herself for what was to come. When the room opened... Well, it would be an understatement to say that Shishirou was extremely creeped out by how the boss looked. Chained bodies? Who came up with that!? Definitely someone sick. All the other bosses and monsters were normal in comparison to this one. Well, nothing she could do right now, or in the near future, to be honest. 

This was really something really cool, and she got herself some pretty good teammates too, so she could only give it her best. The tiniest tank ever in existance, several cats, a Salamander and a Spriggan, along with a musician, herself, it really sounded funny if she put it like that. She giggled a bit. She took the violin hanging from her back and put the katana where the violin had been before. She took the violin in her left hand, her bow on the right hand, and she put her chin on the support it had, before taking a deep breath.

<font color=""#fff200"">""Don't worry. I won't die, so you don't go dying on us either, all right?""</font> She slowly started playing the violin, and the first buff appeared next to everyone's life gauge. A defense boost. She changed the tune and started playing it a bit more aggresively, and another buff appeared, this time an attack one. She started going from one tune to another, adding all the buffs she knew to her partners. <font color=""#fff200"">""That should be enough for us. Now, for that guy.... I wonder if debuffs work on that thing? Err, things? Whatever.""</font> She started playing it again, this time to debuff their enemy. Whatever debuff stuck to it was good enough. After that, she put her violin in her back again and took her katana again, spinning it around in her hand. <font color=""#fff200"">""All ready! Let's do this!""</font></div>"

Kite felt that things will always work out to be the same exactly way because it was always meant to be. Especially since he seemed to be recruited into a party because of the particular beeline he took on his way to the boss room. It looked like he was stuck with a salamander, pooka, and three cait siths on his little team. Kite was going to protest being in a group but before he could ask them to move he was being loaded with buffs. He guessed that this couldn't be too bad.

As he complained to himself he noticed that the leaders of their <span class=""bb-i"">army</span> had taken the liberty to opening up the giant door in their way. The boss looked like a bunch of zombies got lost in the dark and sort of ended up tangled into each other. It was too bad because Kite was looking forward to slicing up a fifty foot skeleton after he passed a bunch of smaller ones. Then again killing this giant zombie hybrid monster could be fun too. Well either way he was wasting time standing around here. 

<font color=""#1b1464"">""I'm going in. If you want to back me up then come right ahead.""</font> Kite said ignoring most of his team saying hi. It was not that he held any qualm to these new strangers but he was here to kill the monster. Kite pulled out his curved blade and embarked on his stroll to the boss. He wasn't really concerned about anything right now. He just wanted to see this zombie's fighting style and attack patterns. Knocking HP to zero was not Kite's way of winning. In Kites eyes winning meant being able to out do the other guy's fighting style. When Kite looked up he finally made his way to the boss.</div>"

Try as he might, Alex didn’t get the reference, and he doubted that he wanted to, judging by the tiny tank’s grin. Suggestive smiles aside, it seemed they were getting more people, which was good. It also reminded him that he had ‘people’ to add to the group as well. Alex activated &lt;&lt;Summon animal companion&gt;&gt; and a very familiar, very annoying bird was summoned. Alan the annoying joined the party. The first thing Alan did was fly onto Steven’s head (who was on Alex’s head) and started pecking at him.
“Stop that.” Alex said, flicking the annoying crow’s forehead.
Alan backed off, but only for a little bit. Out of all 3 of his companions, Alan was the most annoying to deal with. Sure, he followed orders, but when he didn’t have to follow them, he didn’t. Alan settled onto Steven’s head, thankfully refraining from assaulting the sleepy cat.

Alex turned his attention to the spontaneously grown 6 person group, which he could’ve sworn was just 3 before he looked away. He quickly studmied their user names. The new additions included a cat archer called Arina, a solo salamander shield bearing swordswoman by the name of Athena, a small cat tank by the name of Fuyuko and a spriggan swordsman (Ugh, more S. Anymore alliteration might alter Alex’s understanding) by the name of Kite. And Alex, of course. And there was the girl who was still on the shoulders of another guy (who’s username was Shishirou). There was a good amount of variety, and there were few things he was concerned about.

<font color=""#fff200"">""Nice to meet you, Da loli! I am Shishirou, but you can just call me Shirou if you want. Or the other loli.""</font>
<font color=""red"">""I'm Arina by the way. Nice to meet you all!""</font>
Members of his party started introducing themselves, so Alex followed the gesture.
“Yeah, hi. My name’s Tim, but with a 1 instead of an i. Tim was taken, you see.” Alex shrugged. 
“This is Steven, by the way, and on his head is Alan.” He said, pointing out Steven on his head.

His attention was drawn to the door as their leaders began speaking again.
<font color=""red"">""This is it I suppose..""</font>
 “You bet.” Came Alex’s unenthused reply.
The cooldown on &lt;&lt;Summon Animal Companion&gt;&gt; had gone down, so Alex used it again, summoning his slightly-larger-than-usual turtle, Thomas the Tank Turtle.
“Hey, Thomas.” Alex grunted.
The turtle grunted back, happy to be summoned for a fight.
The 3 leaders opened the way, and the party followed them as they walked in.

The first thing that hit Alex was the stench.
“Ueh” He said in surprise.
Okay, sure, the dungeon had zombies in it, but he didn’t expect <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">that.</span></span> A hulking mass of rotting corpses held together by chains. A massive butcher’s knife in its hands, which were made of arms. <span class=""bb-i"">His fingers were made of arms.</span> Candles burst to light around the arena, showing off the boss in all of its grotesque glory, the monster letting off a monstrous roar.

<span class=""bb-i"">Well, this is something.</span> Alex thought.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Tanks! Hold it's aggro while our DPS does their job! Healers! Keep an eye out and have your spells ready! This boss has a small move set for close range attacks and virtually no ranged attack except for one. But that's no threat to use if his aggro is held! Let's go!""</span> The leaders said.
The spriggan swordsman, Kite, ran off straight towards the rotten monstrosity.
“Well, he's certainly got guts. Steven, wake up.” Alex said, flicking him in the forehead.
Steven yawned and stretched on his head, Alan still pecking him.
“Alan, you’ve got a new target.” He continued, grabbing the crow by the head and making him face the boss.
He let go and the crow flew into action.
“Thomas, on me. You’re tanking, as usual.” Alex told the turtle, drawing his sword.
Steven jumped off his head and landed in a battle position. He felt himself being buffed, and turned to the source. The small blond girl, Shishirou.
<font color=""#fff200"">""That should be enough for us. Now, for that guy.... I wonder if debuffs work on that thing? Err, things? Whatever.""</font> She said.
“You won’t know until you try.” Alex said, getting ready for battle.
<font color=""red"">""Don't die. Any of you.""</font> Arina whispered to herself.
“Don’t worry about it, we won’t die.” He told her reassuringly.
With that, Alex leaped and his companions leaped into the fray.</div>"

A shame there aren't any more of us about... An entire party of lolis would be Godlike.'</span></font> Shishirou was clearly her kind of person; a big dumb grin and the ability to quote obscure anime on the spot were all the qualifications she needed. The others Fuyuko had called out to had thankfully not run away, giving their new party a good combat balance and the numbers required; the high proportion of female avatars always a plus. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'Being small means I don't have to reach down to hit them in the bollocks.'</span></font> Arina's build suggested pure DPS, although Fuyuko had met archers who focused on crowd control or interrupts; in any case she seemed alright, more than she could say for one of the male players, who declined to reply despite joining the party. Probably one of those solo players who thought that VRMMORPGs were all about one man's quest and all that shyte. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">Different strokes for different folks,</span></font> she thought dryly.

Any response she may have given the other two was cut off by the raid leaders calling the hall into order. Fuyuko had a brief moment to summon her familiar and only method of dealing any real damage before jogging after the rest of the party, her faithful pet lizard loping along behind. It wasn't long before the boss revealed itself in all its morbid glory. It wasn't the fact that is was made of corpses that repulsed her, nor even the stench; the way it moved was just so... <span class=""bb-i"">wrong</span> that Fuyuko found herself uncharacteristically lost for words. Luckily the raid leaders broke her out of reverie with a stream of orders and the diminutive tank struck her hammer and shield together a few times to psyche herself up. Any discomfort she may have felt was dispelled when Arina spoke up, replaced with a flush of bravado. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'Don't die?

1466,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-01-31 05:39:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#a187be"">""My name is Athena. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your group. It is a pleasure to meet you all.""</font> Athena said, introducing herself to her new party members in the formal style of her ALO persona. 

While the other party members chattered on with small talk, Athena chose to keep silent instead, focusing her thoughts completely on the boss battle ahead, her mind already working methodically to form battle strategies. The party composition was fairly standard for a dungeon raid party, except the absence of a dedicated healer, which only made her own situation worse, with no healing potions left in her character's inventory. Athena had decided against asking her party members for potions. If they'd learned that she had neglected to prepare herself properly for a boss battle, she was sure that they would have refused to let her into their party.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Remember why you're here, Athena. Let that be your strength for the upcoming battle.</font></span> She thought to herself as she fought to hold back her own uncertainties brewing in her thoughts. Her reason for playing ALfheim Online, to become the persona known as <span class=""bb-i"">Athena</span>, was to become everything that she couldn't be as <span class=""bb-i"">Natsuki Kawaguchi</span>: bold, confident, fearless, and untouchable. 

What made ALO special compared to all other VRMMOs was the absence of the typical leveling system that only served as a barrier against new and experienced players. In other words, the world of ALfheim Online was <span class=""bb-i"">fair to all</span>. There were no elites or low classed individuals. Anyone who had the will and effort to become stronger had the potential to challenge even those who were considered the most powerful. Once the Salamander race was widely reputed to be the strongest race in all of ALO, but eventually the combined efforts of the Sylphs and the Cait Siths were enough to overcome what was thought to be an indisputably indomitable power. This meant only one thing to Athena - that she too had the potential to overcome everything that held her back in the ""other"" world. This was why she couldn't give up now. 

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#8882be"">If I can't even overcome something that is designed for the sole purpose of being defeated by the hands of players, what is the reason for my existence as Athena? That is precisely why I can't fail now.</font></span>

Before long, Athena found herself and her party members standing within the great halls of the boss room. The other players in the dungeon were pouring through the entrance doors, the clacking sound of their body armors echoing throughout the halls of the dungeon. As all the players moved into position in preparation for the boss monster's appearance, Athena's sense of hearing picked up what seemed to be a faint <span class=""bb-i"">thump... thump... thump...</span> of a monstrously deep heartbeat within the darkness of the vast room. As the drum-like beats became more clear and distinct, it became impossible to determine the source of the sound as it echoed from every surface of the room. It was as if the entire room was a monstrous being's heart.

Athena instinctively took a step back as she withdrew her longsword from its sheath, and raised her shield to a defensive stance, preparing herself for whatever was to appear. 

What first emerged from the blackness was a single arm on the stone floor, bloodied and pale, then another. The number of arms multiplied in numbers until what seemed to be a grotesque mass of bloodied corpses emerged into sight, towering above the players gathered before it. For a single moment, the <span class=""bb-i"">thump</span> emanating from the gruesome looking monster synchronized with her own heartbeat.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Don't die..any of you.""</font> Athena heard Arina speak in a low mutter beside her.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Dying is something I don't plan on doing today. Come, let us make this monster fear for its own life.""</font> Athena replied in encouragement, both to her party member and to herself. Turning to face the monstrosity, she raised her sword in spell-casting stance and closed her eyes briefly.

""<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Ek heimta kraptr berserkr drengr.</font></span>"" Athena spoke in a perfectly practiced and rhythmic pattern as she recited the Words of Power to the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> spell. With the completion of the incantation, a sudden burst of flame appeared from Athena's feet, enveloping her with the fiery aura of the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> visual effect. Athena opened her eyes once more, with all trace of fear and hesitation removed. In any other situation, the use of of the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> spell would have been an incredibly unwise action, especially in a boss battle situation without any healing support. However, the only thought running through Athena's mind was the unconditional defeat of the monster before her. If she was fated to be defeated by this monstrosity, she would do so while fighting at the peak of her ability.

As the other parties shouted their battle cries and launched their assaults against the towering behemoth of flesh and arms, the monster began raising its massive bladed weapon in preparation to attack. With a sudden burst of speed, Athena launched herself into battle, throwing herself into a roll underneath the boss' cleaver weapon as it broadly swung horizontally at the players. Recovering from the roll, Athena unleashed a counter-assault of her own at the monster's exposed mass of flesh, viciously slashing into the monster's sides while it left itself vulnerable with all the strength her character had at its disposal. With her <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span>-enhanced strength, it was a matter of seconds before the monster's AI would suddenly shift its attention towards her attacks.</div>"

All of the players in her group, except for one, told her they were not going to die. She wasn't expecting responses...but they were appreciated. Arina watched from the not so far off distance. That was another class that she highly respected. The fact that some players will just throw themselves in front of an enemy and take and block every hit to the best of their abilities just so they can hold a boss on themselves to protect their teammates. 
Well..now she felt selfish for player as a DPS class. They were all about damage. 

Arina actually lightly slapped herself across her face to get herself back into the action. She needed to take pride in her class choice. So with that newfound pride coursing through her she drew another arrow and let it fly at the beast. It struck and the arrow stuck in his huge disembodied and chained face. 
She let another arrow fly, and then another. With all the arrows hitting relatively the same spot: The monster's face. She saw one of her arrows fly right over his head and she cursed herself as she missed. Arina then activated a skill of hers and her bow started to glow light. She didn't pull an arrow back but instead the skill put a bright purple arrow on the drawback for her. Once she released it the skill activated and she was able to release five more arrows just like the first one in rapid succession. The arrows and streamed over the heads of the many tanks and warrior DPS builds and hit their target. 

The hulking mass of bodies that were each emitting their own low groans let out a loud bellow that seemed to stagger a few of the weaker classes back. Arina almost fell back but she was able to catch herself. 
The boss moved back a bit and focused his attention down on the various tanks that were in front of him, like he had been doing. He had tank and DPS characters all around him
The boss started to swing his cleaver anywhere at the ground as he was trying to hit whichever player was drawing his aggro. After a second or two the AI shifted its focus to what appeared to be the smallest tank on the battlefield. The mass of bodies raised his cleaver and swung it in an arc to not only hit the one drawing his aggro but the players around Fuyuko. Two tanks standing near Fuyuko were not anticipating the attack and were knocked back by the sheer force of the cleaver.

One of those tanks couldn't take it and his health dropped to zero and he left behind his flame for a revival when it was ready. The other tank was knocked to her feet but almost immediately she was covered with a soothing green aura and her HP bar shot back up. The healers were certainly having their work cut out for them. 
With a player killed the boss seemed to let out a laugh as his AI recognized it had killed a player. The boss then had another player draw his aggro. A DPS character of all things. 
Arina saw this from a distance. That must have been impressive damage to draw the boss's aggro away from a tank. The disguting mass of deformed bodies solely turned his attention to this DPS player. She looked so insignificant to him. His AI kept repeating the program to kill this player, so he would do. In that moment he raised his cleaver for a direct downward swipe. With his cleaver raised Arina knew exactly what was going to happen. 

And the member he was going to attack was part of her group. She had one idea to try, she had no idea if it would work but she was going to try it. Time seemed to freeze as she drew her bowstring back with no arrow. She activated a skill and a light green arrow with a large front appeared in the vacant place. She took a deep breath and then let it fly. 
The arrow penetrated deep into the monster's arm, just like she planned. Then it exploded, causing a few of monster's body parts from his cleaver holding arm to fly off and burst into the sparkles. He stopped his attack as he was staggered slightly. 
How she had managed to do that she had no idea...
Arina was sure all of her group members had done way more impressive things. That wasn't anything. The boss's health was dropping significantly. Just a few more moments and he would fall. Arina hoped.

But..now. The boss brought his arm out and in a low groan he repaired his arm with more body parts. Just at that moment a tank around his many feet struck him and caused his aggro to switch. That DPS character did not go unnoticed. 
This monster then threw his cleaver all the way to the other side of the room away from the players and it collided with the wall with a loud bang. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""Alright!""</span> That same tank leader yelled so everyone could hear him. <span class=""bb-b"">""We've got him down to his changing attack pattern, that means we-..""</span>
The tank stopped talking as he watched the boss bring his arms into his center and started to charge up a burst of dark magic. His eyes went wide and he started to two hand his shield. 
This attack was not supposed to happen yet! His HP wasn't low enough. <span class=""bb-b"">""Tanks raise your shields! Go! Go! Raise them! DPS! Get away!""</span> The word for tanks to raise their shields traveled all around the boss as every tank started to scream it as loud as they could. 

Arina had no idea what was going on. She had an arrow ready but the boss was just..charging something. The healers all had spells ready for whatever was coming. 
The Boss then finished charging his attack and let it loose. A large surging pulse of dark energy came from his core and covered a wide area. Effectively knocking back any player who wasn't prepared for the attack. 
His attack patterns were now going to be different as he had no cleaver. The two other leaders of the group were both watching in awe as they had never witnessed that attack that early.</div>"

She lifted it a bit. <font color=""#fff200"">""I love the realism of this thing!""</font> she continued running, with a smile wide in her face. She was a DPS kind of character, so sticking to Fuyuko would probably be the best course of action. She was already near it, and Shishirou grinned. <font color=""#fff200"">""Stay just like that, Fuyuko-chan!""</font> She ran over to where she was and used her as a stepping stone, before the boss was able to counter attack. <font color=""#fff200"">""Die!""</font> She shouted and slashed at the boss midair. She couldn't go over it, a bit too tall for someone her height, but she landed right next to it, which was both good and bad. 

For one, she could slash at it a couple of times, but on the other side... well, just looking at it squirm around was disgusting. <font color=""#fff200"">""Well, I'll at least give him a good one before moving back.""</font> She took her sword over her shoulder to charge her sword skill, and when she felt it was ready, she spun around and then slashed upwards at the boss, her sword engulfed in fire and leaving a red trail behind it. <font color=""#fff200"">""Hehe, how about that!""</font> She was still near Fuyuko, relatively at least, so when she saw the boss about to bring it's cleaver down. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'll be fine as long as I'm here, I think.""</font> She smiled and was about to charge up another attack. Until she was blown away by the force of the boss swinging its weapon. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Uwaah! If I hadn't buffed my defense, I'd be a little pretty flame now.""</font> Shishirou looked at her health bar. It was in the yellow zone. Luckily, the healers didn't discriminate those outside of their parties, or maybe there was a whole party of only healers? Oh, well. Her health bar slowly filled itself again, with the help of the healers. She turned around and nodded at them in way of thanks. She then turned around to the boss again, a bit more angry this time. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'm gonna kill you a thousand times!""</font> She took her katana with both of her hands and was about to dash into action yet again, but when she saw the cleaver flying about, well, she was sure it was something bad. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Take cover!""</font> She said, running back to where Arina was. <font color=""#fff200"">""Arina-chan! Help me!""</font> She said, clinging to the girl's arm. When the shockwave went out of the boss, in search of them, she braced herself for it, clinging even tighter to Arina as if she were holding on for dear life. After that, she let go of Arina and took her katana in both of her hands, before looking again at her health bar. She still had the buffs from before. It was good, she didn't have to lose anytime in buffing everyone yet again. She smiled again. This was when things got real. The berserk of the very last moments when its health is down, the excitement of a boss struggling desperately to not be defeated... Yes, this was when things got really interesting. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Who the hell do you think we are!? You monster! We are gonna kick you back into whatever abyss you crawled out from!""</font> She ran at it again, not before turning back to Arina. <font color=""#fff200"">""Give it hell too, Arina-chan!""</font></div>"

Before Kite could even take the time to execute a single attack he was sent flying back. It wasn't that he really wasn't paying attention as much as he had no passion to fight this monster. Sure it was the final fight of the dungeon and winning seemed helpless but coming here was not Kite's choice. The moment that the boss's weapon struck at Kite direction he arrogantly pulled his blade out of the way so that his low armored body would take the full hit. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Bye, bye, for now.""</font> the Spriggan said with a grin on his face.

The boss’s health was dropping steadily, even in the early stages of the fight. In fact, it was kind of more tedious than anything, because the boss was focused on the tanks who were using their hate skills. Alex liked to think that whenever someone used a hate skill, they were insulting the monster’s mother, and the monsters responded in rage.

Alex stood practically in the same spot, jumping over the monster’s cleaves as he struck it again and again. His individual blows wouldn’t do much for a boss with multiple health bars, but he had nothing better to do anyway. Steven and Alan were doing just fine, and Thomas wasn’t really doing anything at all. As for the boss itself, its move set was fairly straightforward and rather boring, and this was getting tedious.

Before he noticed it, the tiny tank from his own party was next to him.
“Fancy meeting you here.” He said idly. 
The boss quickly reared back its arm for a powerful cleave. Alex prepared to dodge, but a sudden thought struck him. He started grinning crazily as he pictured what he needed to do, and how exactly to do it. As the arm swept around, targeting the tiny tank, Alex jumped forward and up, in the path of the boss’s arm, sword outstretched. 

As the cleaver hit the front line, Alex’s sword stabbed into the boss’s arm, digging into the mass of corpses as Alex held on for dear life. <span class=""bb-i"">Success!</span> Alex thought wildly, the boss’s arm still moving. The momentum from the swing almost threw Alex off balance, but he held on. The boss’s attack animation stopped and Alex leaped into action, climbing on top of the arm and running up towards the boss’s grotesque head, tearing a scar across its’ arm with his great sword, still embedded in the boss’s flesh. At his shoulder, Alex leaped, his sword cleanly cutting out of the corpses, and Alex landed on its head-cage. Alex began to rain blows onto the grotesque goliath’s head. The rotting monster brought its gargantuan fist down on Alex, but he dodged at the last minute and landed gracefully on the ground as the boss punched itself in the face, denting its cage. Alex jumped back, his grin practically splitting his face. That was the first time he’d done something like that, and he’d loved every second of it. Alex drank a health potion to get his health back to full, and to give him time for his heart to settle. As he glanced back up, he found that a massive cleaver was flying straight towards his face. 

Alex rolled away immediately, coming up on his feet to see to see it smack into a wall. Alex turned and saw that the boss was charging dark magic. Wasting no time, he called out to his familiars.
“Alan! Steven! Thomas!” He said.
Thankfully, they understood. Steven bolted over to Alex’s head and Alan flew overhead, Thomas in his claws. Alex stood up and jumped backwards, great sword poised to shield him from the force. The dark nova was released and Alex was pushed backwards a fair amount, breaking into a roll and coming to a stop several meters away from where he just was. The boss was now unarmed, and according to the panic ramblings of the leaders, it was too soon for it to do so. A quick check of its health bar showed that it was close to death, but they would need to rally to do some real damage… Basically, it wasn’t Alex’s problem.

Alex looked behind him and saw the massive cleaver. A devilish smile penetrated his expression. Alex ran up to the cleaver stuck in the wall. He jumped up and grabbed the hilt, putting his weight into downing it. It budged as Alex jerked the hilt, until with a crash, it came free. Alex dragged it clear of the wall, marvelling at its weight. <span class=""bb-i"">This thing is really heavy.</span> He thought, hefting to his shoulder. But if he was right, this would be sooo worth it. Alex’s grin widened.

Running as fast as he could with something almost twice his size, he jumped at the boss and swung downwards,  dealing quite the chunk of damage. <span class=""bb-i"">Now that’s damage.</span> Alex thought, jumping out of reach with a grin that split his face. He was sure that he technically couldn't do this, and that the cleaver was technically a boss drop, but Alfheim wasn’t just any MMO. Alfheim online was a <span class=""bb-i"">virtual reality</span> MMO, so he could do stuff like this. That said, doing stuff was one thing and getting away with it was another, but Alex wanted to do mess around as much as possible before the fun police got in his way.</div>"
1471,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-01 04:11:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Empowered by the effects of the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> spell, Athena continued her unrelenting assault on the grotesque boss monster with reckless abandon, cutting through the monster's exposed flesh with series of fluidly-connected sweeping slashes, moving herself only by the minimum required distance to avoid the most obvious attack patterns of the enemy.

Even though <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> had no actual effect on the user's mind or thought processes and its enhancements were limited to the character's attack damage and movement speed statics, it was surprisingly successful in encouraging true ""Berserker-like"" behavior in its users purely by the nature of its design. The effects of <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> were far more severe than the proverbial ""double-edged sword"", it would be more accurately described by the term ""double-ended spear"", that impaled both user and enemy. With the severe penalty to damage received set upon the user by the system in combination with the great increase in offensive power, the user is effectively forced to pour everything they have into pure offensive with absolutely regard for defense, in the hopes of defeating the enemy before they were defeated themselves.

Several of the tanks and other close-range fighters from the other parties around Athena staggered back in panic at the giant monster's deep bellowing moans, but she pressed ahead with her attacks.

<font color=""#a187be"">""If you hesitate now, you will die and your party members will fall as well, that is for certain! You can rest when this beast has been slain, not a moment sooner!""</font> Athena shouted to the other parties in encouragement. Her words seemed to have some effect as the other parties' tanks forced themselves to regain their composure. However, one of the tank players was suddenly caught by the massive monstrosity's sweeping cleaver attack, instantly wiping out his HP and leaving a Remain Light where he stood a moment earlier.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">That player... it could have been me in his place. I won't let that happen, I absolutely cannot let that happen!</font></span> Athena shouted to herself in her mind. Drawing back her sword in preparation for her next attack, Athena suddenly thrust the blade of her sword forward, directly into the massive pile of bodies that was the monster before her. The blade pierced through the exposed flesh with a sickening slopping noise, embedding itself deeper and deeper into the massive monster until it reached the crossguard of her sword. In response to the sudden attack, the monster let loose a deep monstrous roar that shook the entire dungeon.

Seeing the body mass of the monster suddenly shift upward, Athena lifted her head up to see the monster raising its cleaver above its head in preparation for a counterattack. The bladed edge of the cleaver was positioned directly above, but with her longsword still embedded within the monster's rotting flesh, immediate evasion was impossible.

Just as the cleaver's blade was about to come slicing down upon her head, a bright-green light shot through the air, penetrating into the monster's outstretched arm, causing it to cease moving mid-swing. As the arrow exploded into shards of light, Athena stood still for an instant, not believing what had just happened. Tracing the arrow's path back to its source, Athena's eyes connected with the Cait Sith archer in her party, Arina. 

With the boss monster momentarily stunned by the arrow's impact, Athena knew that she had just been given a second chance to survive. With the boss temporarily unable to defend itself or counterattack, she knew she had only precious seconds to use until she would be under attack again.

As the effects of the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> spell finally began to fade, she forced the blade of her sword out of the monster's hideous ""flesh"". Athena took in a deep breath as she prepared to start the incantation that she hoped would bring this boss encounter to its conclusion. A glowing circle of burning fire painted itself on the stone ground underneath her feet as she began the incantation.

<font color=""#a187be""><span class=""bb-i"">""Ek bjóða brenna móðr uphiminn eða fold undir vega hvatvetna at bella standa inn minn syn.""</span></font> Athena spoke in carefully measured tones as she recited the first half of the powerful <span class=""bb-i"">Nova</span> area-of-effect spell, each Word of Power recited with flawless precision, causing the growing ring of fire to roar with increasing intensity, even as the boss began to recover from its stunned state and began attacking again. 

In the continuing chaos of the battle around her, Athena barely heard one of the tank leaders shouting about the boss monster's sudden change in attack pattern. Deep in concentration to maintain her spell-casting, she was left oblivious to the events that unfolded around her. She only felt the sickening <span class=""bb-i"">thud</span> that shook the ground underneath her feet as the monster's cleaver dug itself into the far dungeon wall.

<font color=""#a187be"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Hníga hverr helgrind eða frjáls hiti...</span>""</font> Athena continued, pausing only when she was suddenly aware of the boss monster's spell-casting stance as it was about to unleash its massive dark magic area spell. Before the monster could unleash the surge of dark energy, Athena instantly threw herself to the ground, leaving her just enough time to lift her shield to protect herself from the full force of the blast. From the corner of her vision, she watched her HP bar drop by about 20% as her character was damaged by the partial damage that her shield could not fully block. With her <span class=""bb-i"">Nova</span> spell interrupted mid-cast, the Spellword Fumble Effect sent out a second explosion where she stood moments earlier, sending out an expanding plume of black smoke.

As soon as Athena came back to her senses, she leapt up to her feet with her shield already in position to defend herself. Her HP had suffered moderately as a result of the boss monster's magic area attack, but it was still enough offer her a chance of survival. However, due to her failed attempt at casting her most powerful magic spell, her Mana was now dangerously low, leaving her just enough for one more use of her lower-level spells.</div>"
1472,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-01 16:48:00,Lennon79,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With her limited field of vision behind the towering shield, Fuyuko couldn't see much of the battlefield around her, instead relying on hearing and gut instinct to judge her allies location. At least the boss itself was obvious enough, though even that was confusing with its convulsing form and unnatural movements. It was therefore with some degree of surprise that Fuyuko felt a boot plant itself firmly atop her head, launching her new teammate Shiro into the creature's face. She couldn't deny the logic of the action and was prepared to concede the point that she would have done the same given the chance; Hell, who wouldn't? As a tank, Fuyuko's role was surprisingly boring at times like this; her attacks would barely scratch it, making them useful for little more than aggro generation, and guarding against its counter attacks were a simple matter of hiding behind her oversized shield. If it wasn't for the sight of her iguanodon familiar Aoi bounding back and forward, ripping away at the bosses' legs, she would have felt useless.

With a start she realised that three of her party had lined up with her, raining blows while the other tanks called its attention. Analysing the situation, she quickly saw that most of the other tanks were on the defensive, holding their shields up in pure defence rather than attacking; that meant that their aggro-building attacks were on cooldown. If no-one stepped up to draw the bosses' attention they ran the risk of taking casualties. She took a moment to collect herself, aware that letting her heartbeat climb too high would get her booted from the Amusphere; it didn't help that she actively trying to get the attention of something out of a horror film. Raising her shield up high, Fuyuko slammed it down into the ground with a grunt, sending a shockwave of blue energy arcing outward. Howl was a basic aggro-builder but good for starting a combo; she quickly spun into her first Sword Art, launching three spinning strikes in quick succession. As always the damage itself was negligible, but it got the bastard's attention.

The blow came fast, almost too fast for Fuyuko to prepare herself. By crouching down behind her shield and digging in her heels she managed to avoid the worst of the blowback; damn thing stripped her HP by a third though. Good thing she had all the extra buffs, or else that might have been nasty. The others around her weren't so lucky. Two were cut down instantly, including the Spriggan in her party; either he had a glass cannon build or he simple hadn't been able to evade in time. Knowing that she needed to keep the bosses' aggro for as long as possible, Fuyuko launched into another three-hit combo and stood frozen for a few seconds afterwards, unable to move due to the post-motion effect. It gave her a chance to survey the field though, revealing that the battle was going fairly well so far; only a handful of casualties on the front lines and the healers were as yet untouched. The audacious acts of her party members drew an amused, if somewhat envious smile; she had always wondered what it would be like to play such an agile character. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps I should roll an alt...</span></font>

By the time she could move again, the immediate area around the boss had emptied. Unsure of what was happening, Fuyuko cast a confused glance upward toward the growing mass of energy around the bosses' hands. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'... Well, shit.'</span></font> The tank threw herself to the floor, curling up under her shield like a turtle; somehow this worked, the majority of the magical energy washing over her without harm. It still hit hard though. Staggering back to her feet with barely a quarter of her HP remaining, Fuyuko looked around at her compatriots. Many of them had also taken serious damage, but their numbers were still high. Allowing her fellow tanks to hold aggro for a while, she jogged back a few metres and signalled the healers for aid. Within seconds the green aura of healing magic infused the air and Fuyuko leaned on her shield heavily as the HP bar slowly refilled. It was her first time in this dungeon but she was damn sure that the boss wasn't meant to do <span class=""bb-i"">that.</span> Not that the details really mattered to her; once her health recovered she intended to get stuck in once more and play her role in the raid. Worrying about attack patterns was someone else's problem.</div>"
1473,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-01 17:51:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As the boss started to unleash his attack Arina had an arrow drawn back and ready to go. Just before she went to release it Shishirou came out of nowhere and grabbed onto her arm, effectively knocking her out of her concentration which sent her arrow flying in some random direction. Missing its target. 
<font color=""red"">""Ack-what are you doing?!""</font> She called out at first. The initial jolt from the sudden grab made Arina forget about the coming magic pulse. Time seemed to slow down again as she looked over to the Boss when he unleashed the magic blast. 
Arina wrapped her arms around Shishirou as well as she tried to cover both of them from the blast. Shishirou was holding on for dear life it felt like, it must have felt the same for her. She didn't even realize she was holding on that tight. 

Once the dark magic faded and they were safe and neither her nor Shishirou took much or any damage. Arina let out a soft sigh as she watched Shishirou prepare for another charge at the beast. She also looked past her and saw all of the tanks and DPS players who couldn't block the blast effectively stand back up. She didn't see any more dead players so that was a good sign. 
<font color=""yellow"">""Give it hell too, Arina-chan!""</font>

That comment made Arina's ear twitch slightly and she sent a smile to the back of Shishirou's head as she ran off to attack the boss. ""You bet."" She said to herself as she drew another arrow back and took aim to let it hit her mark. 
As she was doing this she noticed something else. Now, she was sure she wasn't the only player that noticed this either...but one player appeared to be wielding the boss weapon and using it against him? Either that or Arina was just dreaming. Seeing that sight made Arina stop and just watch as the player took the cleaver and carved out a rather large chunk of damage from its health. 
Wait a minute...that player was a part of the same party as she was! She couldn't help but smile at his creativity. She was sure that weapon was a drop from the boss, but he wasn't dead yet so whatever worked.

Now that the mass of decaying bodies was weaponless he was now on a different attack pattern. While the tanks continued to attack the boss and cause small damage something happened. The boss slowly lifted his giant caged head from looked at the tanks and DPS players directly below him and he looked off towards the back of the dungeon. He was looking right their healers. 
As if his AI knew what was going on. 
The boss let out another angry bellow which stagger another few players before he used his chained left arm to sweep players away in an arc. If one was caught in that arc they were effectively knocked back.  But he wasn't finished. Next one of the tanks he hit with that arc for some reason drew his aggro and he moved over to where he lay on the ground and brought his left arm down in one massive punch. The player died of course, the boss still had no aggro on the tanks near him and instead he swept his arm in another arc, sending those who were trying to recover flying back even more. This time three players were killed as their bodies were thrown back into the dungeon wall. 

The mage leader from before entering the boss room watched in horror as this was happening. She was angry now. Obviously she was going to take her anger out on the tanks. 
""What are you doing?!"" She screamed in anger at the tanks by the boss. ""Hold his aggro! This boss isn't hard at all!"" 
While it was true this boss was rather easy, something was wrong. His AI was...not wanting him to die. That might sound odd, as all boss and enemy AI would be like that. But it was as if the Boss knew what was at stake if he died. 
But if what just happened wasn't bad enough, the Boss was still not finished. 
He then shifted a rather quick glance back at the small group of healers who weren't paying attention to the boss but instead the various red and yellow health bars they had to get into the green. 
The boss raised his left arm and that same dark magic started to form on his body fingers. After a few seconds he slammed his hand into the ground and a small portal of dark magic just big enough for his hand to fit through was carved into the dungeon floor.
Even though the boss was still taking damage he was just simply ignoring the tanks trying to hold his aggro. Which was something he wasn't supposed to do. 

The tank leader knew what was going on. He was baffled at this whole thing. He had fought numerous bosses but nothing like this had ever happened. He heard the comments made by the other leader and simply put an agitated look on his face. <span class=""bb-b"">""Something's wrong!""</span> he shouted loud enough for any player to hear him. He hoped the mage who called his fellow tanks out would hear that and see what he was talking about. 

Now then, the attack. Just as one could guess that same dark portal formed right under where the healers were standing and not but seconds later the large grotesque hand burst from the portal with such force, knocking the majority of the healers flying. Only about two of them were killed by the initial blast, but that's two healers down. 
After the portal closed the remaining healers kept trying to stand but they couldn't. Now the boss shifted his aggro back to the various tanks at his numerous feet. 
Only about three healers were able to contribute to the team the others were stuck on the ground, holding their eyes in pain. They had that same dark energy seeping from their eyes and it was blinding them. A status ailment notice popped above the affected healers' heads as well as by their names. ""We can't see!"" Or ""I can't see! Purify me!"" Or simply ""Purify me!"" Were all that the healers were saying. 
The boss seemed to let out a low chuckle as his job was done well. 

The surviving mages now had to make a choice. They could either continue healing the tanks and DPS players or they could purify their fellow healers so they could get back into the battle. But purifying would take some time...and what if another..thing happened! 
The boss reached his arms back and let out another low bellow but this time his bellow was interrupted by a sort of..glitch sound. As if someone had taken his sound and skipped a segment of the audio. He repeated the bellow and it was fine that time. His moveset was unaffected however. 
Next he brought his hands down in front of him on whoever was holding his aggro. He seemed to be back on his regular AI pattern. Slow and stupid. His health was very low. They needed to end this quickly due to their low amount of healers. The three or four healers who were still up and running were all tirelessly spouting spell names over and over again as they tried their best to keep HP bars up. It was a noticeable difference in healing. 

Arina had no idea what just happened. She was near the back at this point with a few other archers and mages as well as the healers. She decided to move up somewhat, all the while she was shooting arrows into the boss. She had never fought this boss before but she had a feeling something was up. Either that or this boss was had a super peculiar AI. 
The archer activated another skill and drew back her arrowless string and then three bright pink arrows with very broad tips appeared. Her adrenaline was pumping as this was way more action packed than she was expecting. She was able to calm herself enough to focus her shot and let her arrows fly. These broad bolts penetrated deep into the flesh of the Boss, causing slight bleeding. 
His HP was very close to be depleted. They had to end this.</div>"
1474,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-01 20:28:00,Hebigami Shiho,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Shishirou stopped just before the boss brought its enormous hands down. The flying bodies of players were a sight to see, if it wasn't such a critical situation, maybe she'd be betting with her friends who goes the farthest. She shook her head, knowing that it was no time to be thinking about things like that. She saw Alex running around with the Boss's weapon, and hitting it with it. Oh, the irony. Well, she had to do her part too. She ran at the boss with all she had. She saw how it killed another player with a simple-minded, yet powerful fist to the... well, to the everything. A flame stood there, and Shishirou passed by it, her katana ready to slash at the boss. But she couldn't have expected the second attack of the boss, sweeping its arm on an arc. She was about to be caught up on it, but out of instinct, she decided to hold to the boss' arm. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Someone! Make it! Stop!""</font> Shishirou felt sick, being swung around like that. It had been a bad idea, but at least she wasn't a flame by now. At times like this, she wondered why did she go for a speed build instead for a raw strength and defense one, like that, she wouldn't have been able to climb unto this guy's arm. It finally stopped after a while and Shishirou let go of it, falling to the ground on all fours. She was about to vomit, she felt like it. Luckily, the game didn't support that kind of feature. It'd be embarrassing if it did. She finally recovered and looked at the boss with desdain. Now it was personal. <font color=""#fff200"">""You... you just aimed to kill me, right? So, that means you were trying to kill me... RIGHT!? Then.... whatever I do next is what you deserve... RIGHT!?""</font> She ran at the boss like crazy. After that quote, she just had to kill the boss, or at least make sure someone form her party did. 

While the boss charged up its dark magic attack, Shishirou ran right next to its back and started slashing and dicing it as if there wasn't going to be a tomorrow. If it was a real katana, it probably would have already lost its edge. <font color=""#fff200"">""Shineee! Shine, shine, shine, shine, shine, shine!""</font> She shouted as her katana moved around. She put her katana over her shoulder again and charged the same attack from before, but this time, she tried to make the knaji for 'die' with the trail of flames. Unluckily, her sword skill turned off before she could finish. <font color=""#fff200"">""Ah, I screwed up. Well, whatever. Fire is always good against zombies anyhow!..... Unless they catch on fire and start running after you. I hope this guy doesn't do that.""</font> She said, resting a bit and swiping the sweat off her forehead. The aggro of it was focused on someone else, so she could, at the very least, take a little rest. 

Until the boss started shouting. <font color=""#fff200"">""W-What?""</font> She covered her ears, but she still noticed the glitch sound. Wait, was all of those things from before just a glitch? Really? That was just... infuriating! Before, the boss seemed... intelligent, somehow, but now it went back to being just an AI swinging around against the player with the most aggro. Shishirou tilted her head at that fact, maybe it was in its programming? No, no, no time to think about those kinds of details. Right now, she needs to focus on the boss right before her, or she'll end up like the Spriggan in her team. She jumped back, and scanned the area. Her arm was still feeling numb from her attacks from before, or at least, it felt like it was. She looked at her team and saw Arina still shooting arrows at the boss. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Ah.""</font> she had seemingly remembered something. She put her hands around her mouth and started shouting at Arina. <font color=""#fff200"">""Aim at its knees, Arina-chan! He won't be able to adventure anymore after that!""</font> She said with a grin on her face, before turning around to the boss again. Well... it didn't seem to have any knees, now that looked at it. <font color=""#fff200"">""Or... just aim to where the knees should be.""</font> She returned to action, slashing at the arm that was nearest to her. Maybe she could climb up its arm and land a hit on its head? It was worth a try, at the very least.</div>"
1475,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-02 06:26:00,Lord Santa,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex was having quite a bit of fun. The huge butcher knife that the boss had used for a weapon was in his hands… For as long as the moderators didn’t find out about it. Alex probably wouldn’t be able to get out of the dungeon with it, but he could have a lot of fun with it for now.

Hacking at the boss with it was very slow, but he did several people’s worth of damage with it in one shot, which would normally switch the boss’s aggro to him, but he backed up every shot so that he was safe. But Alex soon realised it wasn’t exactly thrilling to be safe, and it was getting boring. The novelty of picking up the boss’s weapon was wearing off fast. <span class=""bb-i"">Eh, whatever.</span>Alex said. <span class=""bb-i"">May as well throw self-preservation out of the window to make it more interesting…</span>

Alex was about to charge the monstrous mass of corpses with the intention to deal as much damage as possible, but suddenly, the boss’s behaviour changed. The boss roared, knocking players back. Alex wisely stayed away, but the boss moved to a downed tank and slammed his fist down, killing the player. Alex watched as it killed several other players, stunned. It was showing completely different behaviour than before. The boss glanced at the healers in the back, and Alex sprang into action. It was obvious what the boss would do. He started hacking at it as hard as he could, trying to get its attention, but to no avail. The boss began to charge dark magic in one of its hands. It was ignoring the tanks and the DPS players.
“Shit!” Alex cursed.

Alex began whacking the boss unceremoniously, desperately trying to switch his attention, but to no avail. The boss continued targeting the healers, uncharacteristic of this particular boss. A dark portal opened close to Alex, in front of the boss’s fist. Alex glanced around, trying to find where it led, and saw another portal in front of the healers. Alex yanked the huge cleaver free of the boss’s unfeeling flesh. He had to do something. As the boss’s fist flew into the portal, Alex met its arm with the cleaver, skewing its trajectory slightly, but without enough force to cut it off. Alex was dragged forward with the force, but stopped just shy of the portal, cleaver embedded in the boss’s arm. 

For all of Alex’s effort, several people died and 3 healers were taken out of action with a strange debuff. Alex cursed again, dashing away as the boss roared. But Alex heard an odd glitch in his call, as if some part of it was removed. <span class=""bb-i"">A glitch?</span> Alex thought. <span class=""bb-i"">No glitch could do this…</span> The boss roared again, and this time, it was normal. Nevertheless, Alex stayed back cautiously. The boss was on very low health, but if they underestimated it, more people would die…

Instead of reengaging, Alex dashed towards the downed healers, opening his inventory screen as he went along. He had a random assortment of collected potions, some rare, and there should be at least one of what he needed. Fortunately, Alex had 2 purification potions, and he quickly took one, slinging the butcher knife over his shoulder with one hand and grabbing the potion with the other. He'd gotten some from an event and had just left it in his inventory, putting it down as yet another item he would never use. As he neared the downed healers, he dropped the cleaver and grabbed the head of the nearest one, forcing the drink down their throats. They were quite rare, but Alex wouldn’t miss them. He didn’t need it right now.

The liquid drained from the bottle, to Alex’s relief, and the darkness faded from the healer’s eyes. He let go and the healer spluttered, offering his thanks. Alex didn’t hear him as he had moved on to the next healer, forcing him to down the potion in a similar fashion. It was unfortunate that he only had 2, but he had to leave the last to the mercy of the other mages. Alex picked up the cleaver again and ran off to face the boss, stopping just out of range, lowering his cleaver in a ready position, ready to react to the unexpected.

The boss had gone back to his previous move set and AI, but Alex watched on. The boss was focusing on the aggroing tanks again, but what was that earlier? It was strange. It wasn’t like the boss AI had glitched, it was more like it had been replaced. In fact, it was something Alex would do himself, if he was in the boss’s position. A game breaking bug? The AI seemed fully developed, as if it was for a different boss altogether. But that dark portal attack… He hadn’t fought the boss before, but he wasn’t sure that the attack which took out their healers was one that the boss had. It was clearly for targeted attacks, which was uncharacteristic of a boss who was slow and stupid. It just didn’t add up. If Alex put the pieces together, he could almost see a malevolent hand behind it. Of course, that would be ridiculous. But Alex couldn’t help thinking.

Alex raised hoisted the cleaver over his shoulder and charged at the boss once again. It didn’t matter right now, it looked like the ‘glitch’ had passed. All he could do about it now was beat the boss and make a report about it later.

Alex hacked at the boss’s torso, taking another chunk out of its quickly dwindling health, but with less gusto than he had before. Somehow, he was having a lot less fun than he thought he would at this stage. The mounting excitement from nearly defeating the boss, who would get the last hit, what they would get when they defeat it. Alex felt all those feelings, but they were overshadowed by a seemingly ungrounded sense of impending doom. It was like he knew something big would happen soon, and try as he might, Alex couldn’t get it out of his head.</div>"

1477,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-03 05:09:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As the other players began recovering from the monster's sudden magic blast, what Athena saw next was so utterly unusual and peculiar that it made her stop in place. One of the Cait Sith players from her party had started attacking the boss monster's own cleaver weapon, which it had thrown away earlier. This was something that one could never expect to see outside the world of ALfheim Online - a fighter wielding a weapon that completely dwarfed their own size. Judging by the amount of HP that the player was doing entirely by themselves, what the maddeningly odd strategy lacked in elegance, it made up in brute force.

As Athena shifted the weight of her sword in preparation to resume her assault on the boss monster, she noticed that it seemed no longer interested in the tanks and DPS players converging upon it. Instead, its gaze seemed fixed upon the healers standing behind them. Why would the monster's AI suddenly shift its attention towards non-combatants? With a sense of urgency, Athena looked to the unsuspecting healers who were in imminent danger of being attacked.

<font color=""#a187be"">""The boss's aggro is shifting towards the healers! Defend them at all costs, without them, we've already lost the battle!""</font> Athena urgently called out to the players around her as she broke into a sudden dash to position herself between the boss and the healers, knowing she had only seconds to act before the tides of the battle suddenly shifted against them. If the healers were forced to defend themselves, they would be no longer able to support the tanks with their healing magic, and without the tanks, the battle was lost.

Having reached the running speed required to activate her Sprint skill, Athena surged forward with incredible velocity, already drawing back her sword arm to intercept the boss's incoming attack. However, her sights were so focused on the healers she was trying to protect that she was caught unaware by the boss's sudden sweeping arm attack. With a sickening impact sensation, the massive arm struck her with such force that her vision had melted into a complete blur as she was thrown along with other players who were also caught by the attack. In the real world, being struck with such a force would have meant certain and instant death. As her character's body roughly landed and tumbled upon the stone floor, the HP meter in Athena's upper left corner of vision shot down with alarming speed into the yellow zone, only slowing to a stop as it dipped just past the 40% HP level. For what seemed to be an eternity, Athena lay on the floor, her mind left completely stunned by the unexpected brute-force attack.

It was the boss's second attack that sent shuddering shockwaves through the ground that shook Athena out of her stunned state, forcefully reminding her that her character had not yet been killed, although the three Remain Lights that stood floating by her sides warned her that she had narrowly missed an untimely end. By the time she had recovered enough to force herself up to her feet, Athena realized that she was already far too late to prevent the boss's attack on the healers. Despite an unrelenting assault by the tanks and DPS players, the boss monster completely ignored their attacks and was already beginning its attacks on the healers through some kind of dark magic portal. Two of the healers were immediately killed by the monster's initial attack.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">No... no... no, I'm too late!</font></span> Athena cried out in horror in her thoughts as she could only stand in shock at the horrific sight, the sword in her hand almost falling out of her grasp as she realized just how imminent their defeat was. She had completely failed in defending the healers, and because of her lack of battle awareness, she had just cost the lives of two healers. The three surviving healers were now disabled from a blindness status ailment. With only three or four surviving healers to support the tanks, the battle had no longer become a battle between two opposing sides - it had now become a slaughter waiting to happen.

Glancing once again at the yellow HP bar fixed at 40% in her field of vision, Athena knew that her character was only one or two hits away from certain death, even with her shield to protect her. With no HP potions at her disposal and the surviving healers completely focused on maintaining the tanks' HP levels, she only had one choice left - to defeat the monster at whatever the cost, whatever the outcome. She wasn't going to stand idly by while the monster continued picking off the players one-by-one.

Extending her index and middle finger together, Athena called up her character's Inventory menu, swiping through the Equipment interface with hurried speed. A finger tapped on the Rose Shield in her character's shield item slot, then swiped it to the Inventory menu, causing the shield on her left arm to vanish into fragments of light, melting away into nothingness. With her HP at such a low level, a shield wasn't going to protect her any further and she no longer had a use for it. Hastily withdrawing the last Mana Potion she had stored in her potion pouch, Athena gulped down the last of the blue liquid contained within the bottle, restoring her Mana levels to maximum.

""<font color=""#a187be"">It's now or never. We have to end this with one final push, don't let launch another strike. Do it now, <span class=""bb-i"">attack!</span></font>"" Athena shouted out to everyone within hearing distance of her position, already breaking into a dash directly towards the boss monster, which had not yet focused its attention on her. As she began closing the distance, Athena took in a deep breath, her mind already recalling the incantations that she was about to cast.

<font color=""#a187be"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Ek heimta kraptr berserkr drengr.</span>.""</font> Athena spoke, her voice unusually smooth and calm despite the maddening urgent thoughts rushing through her mind. With those words, the burning flame aura of the <span class=""bb-i"">Berserk</span> spell returned to envelope her character's body, further empowering her speed as her legs propelled her towards the boss. Immediately after finishing her incantation, Athena prepared to call on her second incantation, drawing her sword arm back in preparation for a powerful thrusting attack, her focused eyes already marking her target.

<font color=""#a187be"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Ek hemta brenna aldrnari seiðr, hata allr órr andskoti!</span>""</font> With the Words of Power to the <span class=""bb-i"">Flame Weapon</span> spell spoken, a new aura grew and extended down the length of her longsword, completely enveloping the metal blade with a brightly-glowing magical flame, forcefully blown back by the sheer speed at which she bolted towards the boss.

<font color=""#a187be"">""This... ends... <span class=""bb-i"">now!</span>""</font> Athena shouted with all the might in her voice, as she lifted up the sword with both hands, combining the speed and momentum of her body with the thrusting action of her sword into one singular attack on the boss, sending the flaming blade of her sword deep into the monster's body, skewering all of the corpses that it passed through. Upon contact with the blade's magical burning flame, the surrounding corpses of immediately burst into a conflagration that spread like wildfire through the rest of its body. In response to the sudden impalement, the boss monster roared out in pain and anguish, sending it into a wild frenzy that shook the entire room with a force resembling a devastating earthquake.</div>"
1478,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-05 02:50:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Just as Arina was going to take aim at this boss that seemed to be developing a mind of its own she heard the voice of Shishirou calling out to her. Due to her adrenaline pumping and her mind racing she actually took heed of her words and started to take aim at the many knees of the mass of bodies that was the boss. It wasn't seconds later that the cait sith archer stopped herself and actually lowered her bow in thought. ""Why would I aim for the...oooohhh.."" 
She caught the reference. She rubbed her face with her hand as she stifled laughter from what she just heard. She didn't know what to really laugh at. The fact that Shishirou actually said that or because she actually tried to aim for the knees. 

But anyways, back to causing damage. Arina went back to pelting the boss with as many arrows as she could let fly. The Boss's health was dropping rapidly and he was almost dead. His attack pattern had returned to normal as his AI either recovered...or accepted defeat. 
It just seemed different now. 
One of her party members had cured the debuffed healers so now they were back in the fight. Which was a blessing. 

The combined efforts of the various DPS players and Tanks holding the aggro of the boss inevitably brought his health down to zero. Once his health his that mark the boss threw his arms up in the sky and let out yet another loud bellow before swelling up and bursting into thousands of little crystal shards that quickly faded after a while. 
It seemed as if there was a collective sigh from the mass of players as many players started to sheath their weapons. Some even took a seat on the ground as they all started to breath heavily. 

The player base around the dungeon floor was rather quiet, besides the occasional congratulations from another player to another, no one was really talking. The healers were walking around to all the player flames in the battlefield and using their spells to bring them back to life. 
Arina put her bow on her back and did the same as most players and let her body relax. She heard a small ping and looked in front of her as a menu had popped up informing her that a few of her skills had increased and showed her the amount of experience she earned towards her total level and the amount of money she was awarded, as well as the loot she acquired. 
Her loot was rather dull looking to many players, but she liked it. She had acquired a bunch of materials or crafting, so she was happy about that. 

The archer then moved closer to where the boss was as that's where her party members were. The player body started to congregate where the boss was and voices started to fill the area where silence once was. 
<font color=""red"">""Hey guys,""</font> She started with a smile. She looked between the her various party members. <font color=""red"">""Good stuff out there! I don't think that-..""</font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""I. Don't. Care. That was not supposed to happen.""</span> The tank elite player and the mage elite worked their way through the crowd and that comment caused Arina to stop speaking. 
""Come on. We killed him, isn't that all that matters?"" 

The tank player stopped. <span class=""bb-b"">""Did you not see how many players died during that? We almost had to wipe! I don't know about you but I don't stand for wiping. Plus, that Boss was glitched or something!""</span> 
The mage scoffed at him. ""Do you hear yourself right now? Glitched? No way. Who cares! The players that died are back alive now, everything is good."" 
The tank let out a heavy sigh before bringing up his menu. <span class=""bb-b"">""Maybe for you. But I'm contacting a GM and reporting what happened. I've fought this boss many times and 'that' has never happened...""</span> With that the two players were out of earshot and they were gone. 

Arina crossed her arms over her chest and looked back to the party members she was around. <font color=""red"">""Well then..""</font> She did actually agree with that tank player. Something..did seem off about that boss.. 
But now's not the time for that. Right?
<font color=""red"">""So,""</font> Arina started with a small shake of her head to jog her memory. <font color=""red"">""We did it. What did you guys think about this?""</font></div>"

The young Spriggan known as Kite was resurrected from his grave. Whether he was to follow the path of a mighty bird who lit it self of fire is yet to be determined. Then again lighting one on fire was no different than intentionally taking a giant cleaver to the chest in an attempt to not fight a battle that he was not meant to be part of. 

When Kite was brought back from the dead he appeared as if he was lying down to take a nap. With a big yawn the Spriggan stood up and asked. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Did we win?""</font> With a completely clueless look on his face. Then a few of the tanks from his guild who lasted the battle came up to make fun of him because he was one of the first players to go down. With that Kite brushed off the various lucky noobs, as he called them behind their backs. It wasn't that Kite was too proud to be mocked by someone who lived because of how much armor they brought with them bt it did become rather irritating. 

Then the Spriggan wandered over to some of the stronger players complaining about the boss. It was too strong and everyone died because of a glitch. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Report it to the admins?""</font> Kite asked in a mocking face. <font color=""#1b1464"">""You know you cannot exactly consider yourself a decent player if your going to complain about every hit point you take. Oh yeah and if I were administration I would probably make every boss continuously harder if too many people are able to CK it.""</font> Kite stated to the group of complainers. As Kite was finishing that up the leader of his Guild came out of the crowd a and added, ""Kite, those are big words for someone who went down easier than most in this battle. In fact I don't think I saw you kill a single monster in this dungeon."" The man stated. 

With that Kite just walked away while whistling. It wasn't going to look pretty if he started a scene about hating his Guild Leader right here. As for the conversation he did sort of give up because he also felt that this dungeon was going to be easy pudding to clear. Those leaders did have a point because Kite could clearly see that boss was glitched from his dead flame. If Kite knew that was possible then he might have stayed in the battle. Besides he hoped that his comments would stick with some players because he wanted a crack at a glitched out boss and kill it while it is glitched. With that thought Kite started to walk towards the exit.</div>"
1480,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-07 06:11:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The boss monster flailed about wildly, roaring wildly in pained anguish as the thin sliver of red color from its last HP bar finally disappeared. As the monster struggled with futile efforts, Athena's heels dug into the ground as she forced her flaming sword deeper into the monster's flesh, sealing its fate as it exploded into countless shards of light. Athena was so intent on ending the monster's existence that she still hadn't moved an inch from her sword-thrusting pose, taking several moments for her mind to fully comprehend the monster's death.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">It's over... it's finally over.</font></span> Athena thought to herself, not realizing she was breathing heavily until she fully regained her senses. How long had she and the other players been fighting the boss? Half an hour? Several hours? She had been so deeply immersed with the battle that she had lost all sense of the passage of time. 

Returning her sword to its scabbard, Athena looked around the room, it seemed so much larger than she remembered it to be, now that the boss monster that once occupied it had been eliminated, leaving behind the dungeon raid group. While most of the players were now busy manipulating game menus and checking the loot they had gained from the boss, the healers busied themselves by healing everyone who had suffered HP losses during the battle and reviving those who had fallen.

Athena then noticed that a popup window had appeared to her side, notifying her of several character stat increases she had earned from the battle, as well as one single item in the Loot Items window. A single item? Athena's brows furrowed in disappointment. After that intense battle, only a single item was distributed to her? Shaking her head in reluctant acceptance at her reward, Athena moved to tap a finger on the Loot Items window, opening another window to reveal the item that had been awarded to her.

The item description window revealed what appeared to be an <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/Z0fS1t6.jpg"">elegantly-designed silver sword</a> with intricately arranged curving designs along its length. According to the item description, the sword's name was <span class=""bb-i"">Wraithslayer</span>. Judging by the weapon's name, it was possible that this was a ""unique"" weapon. However, what was most unusual about the sword was that it appeared to have been forged from a single bar of metal, having no seams or joints along its perfectly-smooth surfaces. The numerical statistics of the weapon weren't overly impressive, although it was slightly better than the sword she already had, but one small detail on the item description window caught her eye. 

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">Item Effect: Invisible Weapon?</font></span> Athena thought to herself in puzzlement as she read the text displayed on the window, at the bottom of the weapon's numerical statistics list. Curious, she tapped on the sword's image in the window, causing the ornate silvery sword to materialize in the air before her. Athena could not help but pause in admiration at the sword's utterly beautiful design. No swordsmith, whether it be in the real world or ALfheim Online, could ever have dreamed to create a weapon as beautiful as the one that was before her. Reaching out with her hand to grasp at the sword's grip, the sword by her side vanished and returned to her character's storage as the system registered her possession of a new weapon.

As soon as her hand wrapped around the sword's grip, the sword's blade lightly shimmered, then a wave of distortion washed over the blade from hilt to blade tip, enveloping the weapon with a sheath of the <span class=""bb-i"">Invisibility</span> effect. Now, the only proof of the sword's existence was the undeniable weight she felt in her grasp.

<font color=""#a187be"">""What a strange effect for a weapon. How on earth can a sword like this be practical in combat?""</font> Athena wondered out loud to herself as she began to slowly move the invisible weapon in her hands, getting a feel of the weapon's weight as she made careful sweeping motions with the sword's blade. The blade was surprisingly light compared to most swords, which made the balance feel rather strange. Without fully comprehending the dimensions and length of a sword's blade, such a weapon was highly impractical to use in actual sword combat. With only the feeling of the sword's weight, it would be highly difficult to achieve precision strikes with the weapon. However, such a weapon would prove highly difficult to defend against, something that could prove useful in the future. Deciding to keep the peculiar sword, Athena carefully sheathed the weapon into her scabbard. Sheathing a sword that she could not see was something she would have to get used to doing. As soon as her hand lifted up from the sword, the weapon's silvery grip and pommel reappeared. At least drawing out the sword wasn't going to be difficult.

Athena then closed the opened inventory windows before her with broad sweep of her hand. In the distance, the raid group's lead tank and mage players were in a heated argument about the outcome of the boss battle. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Did you not see how many players died during that? We almost had to wipe! I don't know about you but I don't stand for wiping. Plus, that Boss was glitched or something!""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Do you hear yourself right now? Glitched? No way. Who cares! The players that died are back alive now, everything is good.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Maybe for you. But I'm contacting a GM and reporting what happened. I've fought this boss many times and 'that' has never happened...""</span>
<font color=""#8882be"">""What are you two complaining for? As raid group leaders, you should be more concerned about your failure to lead properly and anticipate unexpected events in a battle situation. You may have fought this boss many times, but that is no excuse to become complacent and lazy as a raid leader. A competent leader should be prepared for whatever happens and accept their own failures.""</font> Athena interjected in annoyance and disapproval at the quarreling elite players, turning away from them as she finished speaking. As she turned, she could hear the two players mutter something back in response, but she ignored their words. They were irrelevant, she wasn't ever planning joining another raid group with those two players.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""So. We did it. What did you guys think about this?""</font> Asked Arina, one of the Cait Sith players in her party, who seemed somewhat pleased about the loot she had received from the boss battle.

<font color=""#a187be"">""That was one intense battle that could have gone either way, I can't say I've ever faced a boss quite like that. We're very fortunate that the battle turned in our favor today.""</font> Athena responded with a sigh of relief, the adrenaline rush from the fierce battle had not yet washed away. 

<font color=""#a187be"">""That boss seemed to have a very unusual AI though. I've never encountered any monster that was able to suddenly shift aggro to supporting healers. It was almost as if it was able to break free of its usual programmed patterns and think for itself for a while. I'm sure it's just nothing though. Maybe the game designers added in a bit of behavior randomization to give players a challenge.""</font> Athena commented, deciding abruptly to finish her words by brushing off the strange AI behavior as nothing but a designer's bright idea after realizing how absurd her thoughts must have sounded.</div>"

1482,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-07 13:11:00,Lord Santa,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The boss’s cry heralded its death, and the end of the boss fight. Many players cheered, but Alex was left feeling a little empty. He extracted the ridiculously sized cleaver from the rapidly disappearing flesh of the boss’s now deceased form. And that was the problem, whatever he did in the game, it didn’t amount to anything. Destruction ultimately amounted to a whole lot of mess, and while the mess might provide its own cathartic satisfaction, destruction didn’t leave mess in Alfheim online. Therein lay the problem.

A window popped up indicating the increase in his straight sword skill, leather armour, acrobatics, sprint and familiar communication skills. An increase he didn’t care about. He flicked the window out of existence and it was immediately replaced by another screen, this time displaying the items he’d received. He’d received two weapons, the boss’s cleaver and a… zombie arm. Yeah… The boss cleaver was quite good. Flesh render was its name. No special abilities, but better than his in every way. <span class=""bb-i"">It can’t really stab, though.</span> Alex noted. Alex equipped it, and as expected, the giant cleaver in his hands shrunk until it was a little bigger than a normal great sword. However, a warning sign showed up. <span class=""bb-i"">Damn, I don't have enough strength for it.</span> Alex thought. He put it into his inventory and took a look at the zombie arm. It was called unarmed combat.
“Ha ha.” Alex said humourlessly.
Of course they would add something like this. A zombie arm called unarmed combat. It was actually quite decent. It was a 1 handed weapon that was affected by your unarmed skill, increasing its damage by using both the unarmed and the one handed mace skills. It could turn into a powerful weapon, assuming it found the right user. So he should probably sell it or something. 

Alex took it out of his inventory and held it, swinging it around. It was lighter than he was used to, but it moved like a normal hand. Or at least, he thought it did. He wouldn’t really know, he’d never seen a dead body before. He had some fun swinging it around, but put it back in his inventory. Unfortunately for him, the entertainment value of his new zombie arm slowly faded down, and he realised that he was kind of bored. And it would likely only get worse unless he found something he wanted to do.

Alex opened up the system and began writing up a report to the game masters. He didn’t really pay attention to the words, because in the end, he was practically nit-picking. That said, it deserved a report. <span class=""bb-i"">Dear GMs. Today, we fought a boss – the one that was made up of corpses. I forgot its name.</span> He wrote. Alex was easily bored. He didn’t go to school anymore, but he didn’t have any aspirations in life. He lives life to live, because that’s a good thing, but he doesn’t have much fun with it. <span class=""bb-i"">At some point in time, the boss activated his dark magic, but several veteran players noted that it was earlier than usual.</span> He continued. What made people happy in life? It was something he didn’t really know. His life was good, his family was good. He had likes and dislikes, good relations. But he couldn’t find something to keep him occupied. His attention shifted from thing to thing. Games, books, TV shows. Sometimes he’d stop reading a book halfway through because he knew exactly what would happen. And that was a problem. <span class=""bb-i"">Then, at another point, the boss’s AI changed. It was similar to sentience. It used a powerful knockback attack followed with a slam to kill several players at once. Then it began targeting the healers.</span> Maybe instead of spending time in VRMMO’s, he should do something productive. Like go to university, or get a job. Become a space pirate. Anything. Anything to relieve the boredom. And preferably something that’ll be seen by his children, and his grandchildren. All of his descendants. Something that would be a testament to his great mediocrity for all to see. Assuming he had children, grandchildren or descendants at all. <span class=""bb-i"">It was kind of alright in the end, but you should probably look into it.</span> He finished. He thought for a second. <span class=""bb-i"">Also, I don’t know if it was intentional, but I picked up its cleaver and started dealing huge damage.</span> He added. He thought for another second and erased it. That was something interesting, short-lived as it was, and he didn’t want them to patch it out.

At any rate, there was nothing Alex could keep doing forever. He would get bored of it really fast, and he never felt any measure of investment in something, once he'd squeezed out every last drop of fun he could get. He wanted something to keep him interested. Something refreshing, or exciting. Maybe he could learn some magic, or he could give original skills a go.

The message went something like this: 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-b"">RE: This is a message. It concerns a glitch, so it's kind of important.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Dear GMs. 
Today, we fought a boss – the one that was made up of corpses. I forgot its name. At any rate, it glitched out during the fight and I’m pretty sure you should look at it.

So, the fight went something like this: When it started, the tanks drew its attention while the DPS beat the crap out of it. Standard strategy, whatever. One thing to note was that while the boss design is interesting, it’s pretty much just a brute that has some dark magic and is pretty boring. There was this one cool magic, but I’ll talk about it later. Anyway, at some point in time, the boss activated his dark magic, but several veteran players noted that it was earlier than usual. Still, it was pretty much standard procedure after that.

Then, at another point, the boss’s AI changed. It was similar to sentience. It used a powerful knockback attack followed with a slam to kill several players at once. Then it began targeting the healers, as if it knew what was going on. The boss made a portal out of dark magic and hit the healers through it, which is cool as hell. But also annoying because the ones who didn’t die got a debuff which made their eyes radiate dark energy, which was blinding them and appeared to be distressing them (there was no loss of health, however). The status effect had something to do with purification. The names of the debuffs on each person were varied, but were usually some take on ‘I’m blind’, or ‘purify me.’

I don’t know if he could actually do that or if was a glitch, but I want that spell. Seriously, tell me how to get it.

At any rate, the boss roared after it hit the healers, but it skipped a segment or something so it sounded weird. Then it roared again, normally this time, and returned back to normal. Totally killed the mood, though.

I count around 3 possible glitches. 4 if you include the dark portal he may or may not have (I haven’t fought the boss before, so  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). It was kind of alright in the end, but you should probably look into it.</span><footer> T1m</footer></blockquote>

Alex hit the send button and stretched a little. It wasn’t a big thing for him, the glitch. That said, it might be big for someone else, and that wasn’t exactly a great thing. As he stopped concentrating, some conversation filtered into his attention.
<font color=""#1b1464"">""You know, you can’t exactly consider yourself a decent player if you’re going to complain about every hit point you take. Oh yeah, and if I were administration I would probably make every boss continuously harder if too many people are able to CK it."" His freshly revived spriggan party member (Kite) said.</font>
“They wouldn’t make money like that, you know.” Alex said idly, yawning after he said it.

He noticed that the group leaders were arguing, likely about the glitch that happened. But before he could throw in his two cents, another of his party members spoke up.
<font color=""#8882be"">""What are you two complaining for? As raid group leaders, you should be more concerned about your failure to lead properly and anticipate unexpected events in a battle situation. You may have fought this boss many times, but that is no excuse to become complacent and lazy as a raid leader. A competent leader should be prepared for whatever happens and accept their own failures.""</font> Their salamander shield-bearing swordswoman said (Athena).
“Now, now.” Alex said. “You should remember that this is a game. Fighting the boss multiple times is a great excuse to become complacent and lazy, because games run on patterns. And besides, a game is supposed to be fair, especially an MMO. They wouldn’t have something like that without telegraphing it first.”

Thankfully, their cat archer spoke up.
<font color=""red"">""So,""</font> She (Arina) said. <font color=""red"">""We did it. What did you guys think about this?""</font>
Alex thought for a bit. It was kind of easy at the start, but then he did the jump-onto-its-head-and-stab-it-repeatedly thing, which was great. Then the boss threw his cleaver, which missed Alex by barely anything, which he also later picked up. That was also great. But as he mentioned before, the glitch was a real mood killer, and that was all he could think about for the last part of the fight, which was about as mediocre as the start. This all boiled down to one statement which he tended to use an awful lot. Alex shrugged and gave his answer.
“It was alright, I guess.” He replied.</div>"

She was a little confused as to what to do next. Keep hitting it with her sword just as she had done before? Try and do something innovative with her wings? Before she could reach a satisfying conclusion, the monster shouted yet again and she knew it was about to be killed. <font color=""#fff200"">""Wah! No, wait! I want to kill it! I can't NOT kill it after quoting Shizuo like that!""</font> It was inevitable, though. The boss was just in the brink of disappearing. Someone else had gotten the last hit bonus, but she could damn well try. With a quick thrust, she stuck her katana on the boss' flesh, just before it disappeared. <font color=""#fff200"">""Ei!""</font> The boss then disappeared. No last hit bonus, but at the very least, she was satisfied with the result. 

She walked happily to where everyone else was, thinking just how much fun it had been battling that boss. It really seemed intelligent for a bit there. Maybe it was intelligent? Oh, well, who cares? He'll respawn after a few minutes, hours perhaps, so it's not like they 'killed' something intelligent. As she approached the group that was fighting, she couldn't help but curiously see them with a baffled expression. <font color=""#fff200"">""Um, guys? It's a GAME. Glitch or not, don't you think it was really fun? Kinda like, the glitch made it twice harder to beat than normal, no? Isn't that, like, REALLY exciting! If you don't think so...""</font> With an slightly sarcastic smile on her face, Shishirou couldn't keep the next words in her mouth. <font color=""#fff200"">""Then what the hell are you doing here, playing a game? Aren't these kinds of things made for this?""</font> Then, she heard the Spriggan in her party speak up too. Well, he was right about what he was saying. <font color=""#fff200"">""Yeah, what he said!""</font> She said, pointing at him with a big smile on her face. 

She then turned back with a happy look on her face. She seemed proud of something, probably of herself. <font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-i"">'I was assertive, wasn't I? I know I was! Hehe!'</span></font> Shishirou then walked all the way to where the others in her party were gathering, not too far from where the raid leaders were, but anyhow. She got to hear T1m and Athena, and decided to raise her opinion too, simple-minded as it was. <font color=""#fff200"">""If they told you about every little change they did, my mail would positively be in the border of exploding anytime now. Besides, it adds to the element of surprise! Maybe we got to saw what the boss will act like in the next update 'cause of that glitch! Do you really mind it that much if the game isn't fair?""</font> Before anymore witty comments could be made, though, Arina asked something. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Any game becomes boring if it lacks thrills! As said by a certain butler, I think the same. The boss was really fun to fight. I'd fight a glitchy boss like that anytime, any day. I'd take him with less chained corpses on, though.""</font> The chained corpses boss was several times better than her boring everyday, though. College life wasn't as exciting for her as she had heard before. The 'Party now, study later' she had heard of was a lie, like the cake. Still, given that her area of expertise was around these programming things, she too had to raise an opinion on the IA of the boss. <font color=""#fff200"">""She is right, though.... The IA was really unusual. For a while there, it really seemed to believe that it should preserve itself, even over the users.... Not cool, man, not cool.""</font></div>"

The details of what it was doing were lost on her, busy as Fuyuko was with balancing aggro; her armour and shield afforded her sufficient protection that she could effectively ignore any AOE attacks not specifically aimed at herself. It could make long battles almost boring, especially once one got over the thrill of a VR fight. And so in stark contrast to the hot-blooded DPS players around her, Fuyuko spent the last hair-raising moments fending off attacks with a dull, grey expression, her thoughts drifting to the possibility of fixing some dinner IRL. When the boss finally fell, it was to the sound of a bored sigh and the tapping of holographic buttons as she unequipped her shield and dismissed Aoi. At least the other players had enjoyed themselves she noted, walking over to the rest of her newfound party. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'Actually I agree with him; a bug in a virtual reality game is a damn sight more serious than you might think. Corrupted code could screw anything up. <span class=""bb-i"">Anything.'</span></span></font> Her opinion was in the minority though, Fuyuko noted with a wan smile. Most of the others were ambivalent toward the glitch, even pleased; it may have made the battle more exciting for them she reasoned, even if it hadn't improved the tanks' experience. She leant up against a convenient wall as the others debated, drawing a pack of &lt;Low Grade Tobacco&gt; from a pocket; smoking in ALO required one to release their maturity filters, but once unlocked was almost as good as the real thing. She knew she'd be dying for a real fag when she logged out, but for the moment it was a great placebo. After lighting up her rollie and waiting for Shirou to say her piece, Fuyuko spoke up. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'Advanced AI is all well and good, and I wholeheartedly approve of making these fights less of a grind. But a full-blown glitched-out boss on a top of the market VRMMORPG? That's the kinda stuff that kills companies. But feck it; why don't we move on, maybe kill something less bugged up?'</span></font></div>"

It looked as if some of their words pierced them as the two actually stopped and listened. But the tank, who was the one who was going to file the complain, still had his menu up and had a small message typed up. The words made him stop and examine his message. In the end the words were to no avail as he turned and gave them a could shoulder and continued typing his message. 

Now the rest of the small party had arrived and they were beginning to converse and respond to Arina's question. It seemed all of them noted the strange behavior with the boss, like she did. So she wasn't just imagining it. It certainly was different, but she didn't know how to respond. That was her first time fighting that boss so she couldn't really form a solid consensus about what to think. Something was for certain however, the AI of that boss, be it ever updating and advancing or glitchy, was definitely different. 
The small party seemed to be disagreeing about what they thought. Some were happy about its AI being like that, while the minority were saying that they AI shouldn't be that way. 
Arina had to agree with the minority here. 

<font color=""red"">""I have to agree with Fuyuko. But,""</font> She held her hand up in suspense..for emphasis. <font color=""red"">""I don't want to get into any debate here. I'm all for fun boss fights, but not boss fights that cause you to die or even wipe due to some coding error.""</font>
The archer gave a small shrug and shifted her bow in her back a bit as it had fallen down slightly when she raised her hand...for emphasis earlier. 
A few players were now teleporting out and those that were staying around were still speaking or starting a trade up to trade the loot they received. Then an idea came to Arina's mind. <font color=""red"">""Oh! By the way!""</font> She started with a small squeak and then what sounded like a small meow to fit her nature. 
<font color=""red"">""I don't know what all loot you guys got but if it's a weapon and you would like it improved or enchanted then talk to me! I'm kind of the number one crafter in this game.""</font>

She sent a wink to all of them before crossing her arms over her chest. She did have high smithing and crafting skills, and she liked to boast about it. <font color=""red"">""I'm kidding by the way. Well..about the latter. I really can improve your weapons...that part is true.""</font> Arina gave a few awkward coughs in an attempt to just try and make the air less..awkward. She wasn't the only Cait Sith here..
The archer then brought up her menu again and went over to the party section and saw all of their names. She clicked on them each one by one and sent them all a friend request. Once she was done she closed her menu with a swipe of her hand and looked up to each of them as she started to teeter on her feet.
<font color=""red"">""Since we are..done here I'm we are all going to go our separate ways. And I like you guys..so. Friends! But, I know that I am going to head to my shop in Cait Sith territory to deposit some things and then I'm logging off for the night. Pretty sure my dinner is now a crisp...seeing as how that boss fight was longer than I was exepecting. But..oh well. So, maybe we can all play together again sometime? I like to think we make a good party.""</font>

Arina stopped teetering on her heels as she was sure it was making them slightly uneasy. Great impression you got going on there. The archer then awkwardly stood there as she waited for responses.</div>"

It was never his forte to join parties because in most cases they usually slowed him down on quests. But when he thought back to the battle he observed it was pretty entertaining. There was an archer who seemed to be a decent sniper; then another one had the nerve to pick up a boss weapon and bash its head in with it; then there was little barbie who took the boss head on with her hammer and shield; then they had a salamander who fought with a flaming sword; Then there was the tiny thing who jumped on top of people to score some easy hits. It could be entertaining in the least to meet up with some people who knew how to fight.

Kite clicked the accept icon. After that he quickly made his way out of he dungeon. He thought it would be pointless to waste a teleport just to get back to his town. Especially if he was going to spend another hour online to grind tonight. The Spriggan made his way out of the cave and pulled out his compass. It wasn't really anything useful but it had the cardinal directions on it. He began to venture southeast from the dungeon on his journey home. Since he wasted a  great amount of time with no real gain.</div>"

First of all, he didn’t know if he was going to keep playing ALO for so long, and he didn’t even know if being in a party or being friends would be interesting. But hey, it was something new and it couldn’t be bad, right? Alex took a quick look at his friends list and swiftly rediscovered the reason he never did. It was because he didn’t have any ‘friends’. His friends list was completely empty.
“Well.” Alex said, accepting the invitation. “Congratulations, Arina. You’re the first person to ever be on my friends list ever.”
Alex closed all of the windows and stretched.
“Alright, I got to go.” Alex said, walking towards the entrance of the dungeon. 
Alex was getting ready to sprint through the already cleared halls, but turned around again when he remembered something.
“By the way,” He said. “Don’t bother with my username. Just call me Alex.”
Alex turned again and activated sprint.

He raced down the now empty hallways, cutting corners to get out as fast as possible. He had to go out and make dinner, and it wouldn’t take that long to get back to Cait Sith Territory. Arriving at the entrance quickly, activating his wings and took off, reaching max speed and blasting forward, adjusting his direction slightly to rocket straight for Cait Sith territory, and his home in ALO. A home away from home.

As Alex flew homeward, he thought about his new party. A short cat tank, a short violinist, spriggan DPS, Salamnder DPS, Cait Sith Ranged DPS and Alex. More DPS, more cats. No healers, which was unfortunate, but more fun for the family, Alex supposed. Being on edge is funner than being safe, but sometimes they really needed a healer. 2 shields might compensate a little for that, but not much. Well, they could always chug potions like a drinking game. <span class=""bb-i"">Take a swig every time you get hit. It’s great because by the end of it, you can still walk away!</span>

Alex arrived at Cait Sith territory and banked downwards at a hard angle, deactivating his wings to land with a crash in front of his own house door, grateful for safe zones. No damage, no matter how high you fall. No pain, either. Alex unlocked his house and entered, locking the door behind him. He quickly checked his storage, looking through it to remind himself of what was there. He saw a few weapons that he thought about bringing to his new party, but decided that they probably had better stuff already. Alex was surprised by his new party oriented thoughts. Maybe he should stick around for a while. He kept Flesh Render and Unarmed combat in his inventory and fell backwards onto the bed, opening the menu and logging out.

Alex’s eyes opened and he blinked, getting used to what little light there was. Alex groaned as he got up, a little stiff. He slipped off the bed, standing up, and went out of the door. The hallway lights were off, and the door was still locked. It looked like his sister was out. It was pretty much certain, however, that she would be back for dinner soon. Alex turned the lights on in the hall and meandered over to the kitchen. He flicked the lights on in the dining room and the kitchen, then shrugged on an apron and got ready to cook.

Not long afterwards, the electronic lock was disengaged and his sister, Alexis walked inside. Her blond hair shone in the light of dusk and her blue eyes stared quizzically at Alex behind square rimmed glasses.
“Alex!” She said in surprise. “I didn’t know you’d be up.”
“Hey, sis.” Alex said casually. “You know I’d never let you cook.”
“T-That’s, well…” She said.
Memories of burned food resurfaced, days spent in the bathroom and general unpleasantness. Funny in retrospect, traumatising when they first occurred. But Alex smiled at the thought. Those were funny days. 
“Get changed.” Alex said, turning the stove off. “Dinner’s ready.”

It was around 7:30 pm when the brother and sister duo had dinner. Alex had cooked some curry he’d prepared a little ahead in the afternoon. It was kind of mild, and it was pretty tasty. They ate in relative quiet until Alex broke the silence. 
“Why were you out so late?” Alex asked suddenly.
“You starting a conversation, the world must be ending…” Alexis replied.
“I’m not <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> bad.” Alex objected.
“Maybe not, but it’s still bad.” She said.
“Maybe so, but that doesn’t answer my question.”
“Fine.” She said, chewing another spoonful of curry. “I went out to karaoke with my friends. It went for a while and I went back home.”
“Huh.” Alex said, slightly surprised. While Alex skipped grades in school easily, Alexis put in quite a bit of effort in school which led to her having few friends in Russia. 
“I didn’t know you had friends.”
“Well it’s not like you have any.” She said, pouting.
“I certainly don’t.” Alex said, taking a sip of water. “Wait, actually, that’s a lie.”
“Huh?” She asked, puzzled. 
“I made a friend, kind of.” Alex said, putting down his glass. He was finished with his dinner so he took it up along with his sister’s empty plate and went to wash the dishes. His sister followed, well versed with the routine. 

“I was playing Alfheim, which I told you about,” Alex said, filling the sink with water.
“Uh-huh.” Alexis said, taking the dishwashing liquid and splashing some in.
“And I made went on a dungeon raid with some other people.” Alex continued, working up a lather and wiping the plates clean.
“You went with other people?” Alexis asked sceptically.
“Guild leader was tired of my shit.” Alex answered, handing the plate to Alexis who rinsed it. “Had to go or she’d be mad at me.”
“Okay, and then what?” She asked, drying the plate and putting it away.
“Well,” Alex said, washing a set of cutlery. “It was kind of boring, and the boss was alright, and we got to the last boss.”
He set aside the cutlery for Alexis to rinse and continued.
“Then the team split up and we formed smaller groups. I was in a party of 6 with a pretty varied set of people. A cat girl tank, a cat girl archer, a really short bard girl – The cat tank was short too by the way, a salamander lady, and a spriggan dude. And me.”
“Looks like you’re running around with a bunch of girls where mom and dad can’t see you.” She said suspiciously. 
“Is that really what you think of me?” Alex asked incredulously.
“You haven’t really told me otherwise.” She countered.
“Hey, I don’t even know them in real life.” Alex objected.
“So?”
“<span class=""bb-i"">So,</span> I might not be running around with a bunch of girls where mom and dad can’t see me. I might be running around with a bunch of guys where mom and dad can’t see me.”
“Point taken.”
“Anyway.” Alex sighed, starting to clean the pot. “We went in the boss room and it was a huge mass of corpses, moving around by shuffling the bodies around. It was pretty interesting.”
Alexis visibly shuddered and Alex grinned evily.
“I’ll print off a few screenshots and put it on your ceiling while you aren’t looking.” He said mischievously.
“If you do, I’ll-“
“I’m kidding.” Alex said, grinning. “Probably.”
“Alex…” She warned, tone low.
“Alright, alright.” Alex said, still smiling. “Anyway, the boss fight was cool, and our cat archer gave everyone friend requests.”
He handed the pot over Alexis and wiped his hands to dry them.
“Well, if she extended them to everyone…” She said, rinsing the pot and putting it aside to dry.
“Well, I think I might stick to it for a while more.”
At this, Alexis stopped in the middle of drying her hands and put a hand to her brother’s head.
“You… aren’t sick, are you?” She asked, mystified. 
“What’s with you today?” Alex asked in confusion.
“I’ve never seen you stick to <span class=""bb-i"">anything</span> for more than 3 days.” She said.
Alex had to admit that she had a point. But this was his first VRMMO, so maybe that was what caused it. Though in all honesty. He just felt like something interesting could happen if he stuck around with them.
“Well, there’s a first for everything.” Alex said casually. 
“Well, apparently.” She said, still looking mystified. 
“It’s fine. Seriously.” Alex said, stretching. “You know, I think I’ll help you study tonight.”
Alexis’s went to the window and peeked outside, looking for something.
“What are you doing?” Alex asked, confused.
“I just thought the world might be ending. This is pretty weird for you.” She replied.
“Okay, now you’re just blowing this out of proportion.” Alex said. “I help you study a lot, you know. Wait a minute… You’re having fun with this, aren’t you?”
Alexis’s hidden grin broke free.
“Maybe.” She said, smiling. “But I’ll still take you up on that offer.”
“Let big brother teach you tonight.” Alex said.
“I’m older than you!” She said, taking her glasses from the table.
“Not by so much that you could hold it over my head.” Alex said.
""True."" She said.

It was later in the night that Alex finally lay back down onto his bed, not too tired but not exactly energetic. On reflection, today was actually a good day. He’d done a lot today, seen a lot and added a friend to his friends list. They’d need more interaction to be friends, and he wasn’t sure about the other members. Though as for the other members, they seemed like fun people and he looked forward to partying with them. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe that’s what was missing from my life.</span> Alex thought. <span class=""bb-i"">Friends…</span>

Truth be told, Alex hadn’t made any friends in real life in years. When his family used to live in Russia, he’d skipped grades in school because it was easy and he didn’t have anything to do in it. He regretted that decision now. If he hadn’t, he might have been happier. He might have had fulfilment in life. But on the other hand, there was the incident. The incident that gave him trust issues, probably the sole reason he didn’t have any friends.

Alex’s mother was a Russian scientist and his father was a Japanese businessman. He and his sister were non-identical twins, but not many befriended them. They knew of their parents and somehow decided that they were too low to interact with them. Alex was content to live through school and take things easy, but then he made a friend. Yahtzee was his name. Quite the normal person besides his name. He was easy to get along with, and for that year, he was Alex’s only friend. But Alex started noticing something wrong around halfway, when Yahtzee met Alexis. Alex could see it in his eyes. Alex began suspecting something, and despite being his best and only friend, Alex attempted to push him away. Things took a turn for the worse as Yahtzee tried to break into their house once. Alex woke up that night for a reason he never knew, and came face to face with his once good friend. Yahtzee revealed that the only reason he’d gotten close to Alex because of his obsession with Alex’s sister. All Alex could do was sigh. Unfortunately for him, this was the very reason he’d broken ties with Yahtzee. Things only got worse as Yahtzee pulled a knife on Alex. Alex managed to hold him off loud enough to wake Alexis up and long enough for her to call the police. Also long enough for her to get a pan and smack Yahtzee unconscious. The incident was a black mark in Alex’s life and he skipped all of the grades in high school to distance himself from it. His family moved to Japan in an attempt to put it behind them and Alex never regretted it. It’d been 2 years and the incident still affected him to this day. He'd gotten over it, but it lingered there, just out of reach, like the sword of Damocles.

He couldn’t completely blame Yahtzee, though. It was mostly his fault for never going out. Alex shifted his lower body onto the rest of his bed and drew the blanket over himself. Maybe things would change now. He knew that Yahtzee was a special case, and that there were good people in the world. He’d been ready to make friends, but he was always too young for the class and he’d graduated a year after he entered. So maybe things would be different now. Alex turned onto his side and closed his eyes. The darkness took over and he was asleep.</div>"
1488,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-11 05:01:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Athena was ready to part ways with her party and say her final goodbyes and was just about to turn around to leave the dungeon when a small dialog window popped into view in the corner of her vision. Tapping open the window revealed a Friend Request sent from Arina, causing Athena to pause momentarily at the unexpected request. Her outstretched finger still hovered over where the dialog window sat moments ago. 

In all her time in ALfheim Online, Athena was never one to initiate friend requests with other players, all interactions with players were mostly for convenience purposes, such as grouping up for dungeon raids like the one she just fought in. Temporary partnerships that ended as quickly as they were formed. Her serious virtual personality usually succeeded in putting off other players from befriending her, but this Cait Sith player seemed to see something in her that other players didn't.

<font color=""#a187be"">""We do seem to work very well together for a party that was formed at the last minute. I hope we may join together in battle someday.""</font> Athena said with a faint smile, as she turned back to face the group of players that she had just fought alongside. She called the Friend Request window with a motioning of her fingers, accepting Arina's friend request as well as sending requests to the other players. Her previously-empty friend list now included:

<span class=""bb-i"">Arina</span>: The Cait Sith archer that managed to save her from an untimely death from the boss monster's cleaver attack with a well-timed arrow.

<span class=""bb-i"">T1m (or as he asked to be called, Alex)</span>: The unorthodox player who had the bright idea of attacking a boss monster with its own weapon. It was either a stunningly brilliant strategy or a stupidly reckless tactic. But it worked.

<span class=""bb-i"">Shishirou</span>: The midget Pooka player with the unusual ability to joke in the midst of a fierce battle. Athena didn't quite understand the joke she was trying to make. Perhaps it was an inside joke from an old game of some sort.

<span class=""bb-i"">Kite</span>: The only player in her party who had fallen in battle, however, he was the only player she had ever seen that hadn't shown any signs of fear despite knowing the inevitability of his death. Even if it was only a VRMMO, the mere sight of a giant cleaver swinging in one's direction was real enough to strike fear deep into anyone's heart.

<span class=""bb-i"">Fuyuko</span>: By far the smallest tank she had ever encountered in ALfheim Online. In retrospect, having a small-sized tank character seemed like a clever way to ""cheat"" the system, with easier evasion ability than a taller character. A smart idea in theory, an amusing sight in (virtual) reality.

With her Friend List no longer empty, Athena made her way through the twisting halls of the dungeon with the others, although some decided to rush ahead hastily. Athena noticed that the group of players leaving was noticeably smaller than what it was when they entered. Such a decrease usually only happened when the dungeon raid party was too low level or the battle coordination was very poor, but this group was well-equipped and properly leveled, and the group had proper coordination of tanks, DPS, and healers. The exception in this case lay in the sudden unusual intelligence of the boss monster's AI, something that had deeply troubled Athena during the battle. However, for the sake of the group's morale, she hid her fears underneath the fierce exterior of the Athena persona. 

Athena unfolded her character's translucent wings and burst into flight as soon as she left the ""non-flight"" area of the dungeon, soaring effortlessly through the air towards Salamander territory. The sky had already greatly darkened by the time she left the dungeon, revealing just how much time has passed while the raid party was fighting the boss monster. Athena felt a slight sensation of hunger passing through her, further confirming that it was already late evening in the real world. Fortunately, the nearest Salamander territory was well within sight, along with the bright lights of the town buildings shining like miniature beacons. As she began passing over the outlying buildings of the town, Athena slowed down the speed of her flight, angling herself carefully so that her feet touched the ground as soon as her character's wings vanished. Normally, she would have went to the nearest merchant NPC and purchased some food to remove the feelings of hunger and continue playing for a few more hours, however, she felt completely exhausted and wanted nothing other than the comfort of a soft bed. A real bed.

Entering the nearest inn, Athena paid the ever-watchful innkeeper NPC a small fee for a room. Since she had always spent her earnings on weapons and equipment for her character, she had never saved up enough money for a house for herself. Not that a house would be any useful, as she spent most of her time in the game slaying monsters and occasionally players who were a nuisance. 

Entering her rented room, Athena let the wooden door close by itself with a soft <span class=""bb-i"">thud</span> as she made her way to the lone bed in the room. Sitting herself down on the bed covers as she brought up the game's Log Off menu, she briefly thought about the new friends she had made. While they were all a bit strange in their own unique ways, they did have a remarkable ability to work well together despite not having met each other before. Not having made friends in the game before, Athena had no idea what to expect from them in the future. Lying down on the bed, Athena then used the open game window beside her to finally log herself out of the game.

---

As she felt the sensation of her body slowly returning to her, Natsuki kept her eyes closed, as if savoring her last few moments as Athena. It was the growing uncomfortable sensation of the Amusphere resting on her head that kept her from laying still and dozing off, and with a slow reluctance, she slid off the circular device and blindly placing it on the nighttable beside her, next to her glasses.

Carefully lifting herself up from the bed, Natsuki rubbed her eyes as if waking up from a long sleep, and involuntarily yawned as she stretched out her stiff arms. The blur that filled her vision disappeared as she picked up and slipped on her glasses.

Looking up to face the bookshelf that sat across from her, a photo frame sat on its surface. In the picture was Natsuki, several years younger, along with her mother and father. One other girl stood next to the younger Natsuki in the picture, noticeably taller and older, closely resembling the Athena of her ALO avatar, although with black hair instead of fiery red. Next to the photo frame rested an old and noticeably aged helmet-like electronic device.

<font color=""#a187be"">""I tried to fight as hard as I could today, as hard as you would have. No, I fought as hard as you did... Thank you for protecting me, <span class=""bb-i"">Oneesan</span>. ""</font></div>"

Don't get it the wrong way, I'm only accepting your friend request because it'd be the polite thing to do~!""</font> She said, before pushing the 'accept' button and laughing a bit. <font color=""#fff200"">""Hehe, now, being serious, it's great to be friends with you, Arina-chan! I hope we get to see each other some other day!""</font> While she actually wanted to befriend everyone else, two of them had already left. Well, what a shame. Some other day, then. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Some other day, I wanna be the second one in your friend list, Alex!""</font> She shouted at the boy while he made his way out. She also wanted to befriend the Spriggan, but before she knew it, he was already out of sight and out of the dungeon. What's with them and their leaving early, it couldn't possibly be that late... right? She opened her menu and looked at the time. 6 and something all ready?! Well, she was a dead woman if she didn't hurry. She panicked a bit, opened her menu, and sent the remaining ones a friend invite. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'msorryI'mkindofinahurryseeyoulaterguystakecare,bye!""</font> The girl spouted out as she took a teleport crystal out of her inventory and returned to her ALO home full speed. After getting her body to a reasonable part, she logged out of the game. 

Back in the real world, the girl awoke with the Amusphere in her head, turning her vision into a purplish color. She took it off and calmed herself down a bit. If she arrived to dinner like that, it would definitely be awkward with her parents. Not that the atmosphere wouldn't already be awkward because of how long she took anyway. Shiho lived alone, but that day she had made a promise of eating out with her parents. She was plenty sure that she could clear the dungeon and make it back to her appointment with no problems at all. Then, the boss glitched. As much as she would have liked to discuss things and codes with Fuyuko, it really wasn't the time for it. Well, she was now late and underdressed... Her parents would probably tell her off for this. She quickly changed out of her clothes and put on something a bit more 'elegant', to call it something, brushed her hair a bit, put on some perume and then set out. This was maybe the only time she was glad she was tall, given that many would actually complain if she used heels, given that she is already big enough as it is. 

She hurried to the place they had planned on and arrived clearly exhausted and gasping for air. After a waiter showed her to her table, she found her parents there. A middle aged couple that were so short that it was hard to imagine Shiho being her daughter. <span class=""bb-b"">""You are late.""</span> Was their greeting, of both of them, as if they were synchronized by a computer. Shiho laughed nervously. <span class=""bb-b"">""Anyhow, take a seat, Shiho. We already ordered some drinks, we were just waiting for you to.... grace us with your presence.""</span> Her father said. Shiho nodded and sat down. The whole dinner was awkward, as plates went and came for them. Finally, after dessert, Shiho prepared for the worst. 

Her parents were really straight-laced, not to mention technollogically impeded, something quite horrible for her daughter that lived in an age where technology played a big role in her life, not to mention her love for videogames. She would question whether she is adopted or something, but she has seen the birth certififcate and among other things, so she was their daughter all right. Maybe being adopted would take a huge weight off her shoulders though.... <span class=""bb-b"">""Shiho, I know we say this everytime, but that thing is consuming you.""</span> Her mother started. <span class=""bb-b"">""Videogames are bad for you. I hear they even cause cancer.""</span> Not only were they oblivious to technology, but they also were idiots when it came to it. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""The Amusphere is completely safe, mom. I thought I told you this before and-""</font> Before Shiho could finish, though, her father interrumpted her. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""There's also that thing! The thing you put on your head is bad! Didn't you hear what happened last year with that SAO thing? What if some hacker did that to you, huh!?""</span> Shiho just sighed. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""That's no longer possible, dad, the Amusphere doesn't use such elevated microwaves, so even if you tried, nothing would happen.""</font> She said, trying to be as calm as possible, and her father seemed really mad now. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Don't talk to me as if I were stupid, Shiho! I may not be an universitary, but at the very least I work my ass off to provide for you and your mother!""</span> He said, losing his cool and shouting. Shiho couldn't believe it. If only she had arrived on time, maybe her parents would have been less pissy. Well, she had to be the voice of reason right now....

<font color=""#fff200"">""Then stop giving me money, and I'll find a part time job so I can live. I'm sure I can manage just fi-""</font> It came out, before she knew what she was saying. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""And let your grades drop!? You won't find a good job like that! Don't you think about the future!?""</span> Her mom interrupted her this time. Shiho couldn't take it anymore and she stood up, taking her purse with her.

<font color=""#fff200"">""If you won't even listen to me, then I'm going home.""</font> She searched for something inside her eyecatching yellow purse and threw a roll of bills to the table. <font color=""#fff200"">""Here's your money back, and a bit extra I got from my part time job too. Now, if you'll excuse me.""</font> She said, turning around and leaving the restaurant before any of them had something to say. Well, that definitely didn't end well. Not that she would actually stop playing games just for what they say, though. Her idiot parents couldn't cope with her passion. 

She soon returned home, and she was greeted by a small white dog. <font color=""#fff200"">""Shiro! I'm back!""</font> She said taking it into her arms. <font color=""#fff200"">""What should we do now, watch some TV?""</font> She said, snuggling at her dog and her dog licking her face with affection. <font color=""#fff200"">""Oh, but it is already a bit late, should we go to sleep, then?""</font> The dog barked back and Shiho nodded. She went back to her bedroom and laid down on her bed, with all the lights still off. She took the Amusphere off her bed before anything else, of course. She hugged Shiro tightly against her. Well, she had just gotten rid of her allowance AND her pay of the month... Now what?</div>"
1490,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:21:00,Lennon79,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">If anyone had expected the group to hang around and chat, they were sorely mistaken. As the other raid members filtered out one by one, Fuyuko turned her thoughts to what they ought to do next. Accepting Arina's friend request was a given and the tank spammed requests to everyone else in the party before they could escape. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'I'm up for that. I've got a small player home north of Freelia, near the Pooka border; you're all welcome to come have a meal some time.'</span></font> Saving the cash for a player home hadn't been easy; fortunately Fuyuko was well versed in the art of using her cuteness to secure donations. Even with all the help, she hadn't been able to get a proper house, instead settling for a campsite along the beach of a small lagoon. To be fair she had a pretty big tent, but it was still just a tent. <font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">'Ima head home, log off, eat. Should be online tomorrow, say... 1900 JST?'</span></font> Casting one last appreciative smile around her newfound friends, Fuyuko flicked the dead cigarette away and activated a teleport crystal. By the time the fagend exploded into light, she was long gone.

<div class=""bb-center"">------------------------------------------------------------</div>

Light slowly returned to the world as the apartment's automatic lights brightened. Fuyuko sat up in bed, shedding the Amusphere and pulling an old hoodie on. She stood up, mentally making the transition from blonde loli to tired salaryman. Dropping his online persona was an interesting experience for Manabu; Fuyuko wasn't everything he wanted to be, but was still a damn sight more outgoing than he ever dreamed of being in real life. Probably didn't help that he worked in a library; he talked to more people on the way home than at work. Glancing out the window at the twilight of mid-evening, Manabu debated the hassle of cooking dinner for a long moment. <span class=""bb-i"">I'm lazy... and tomorrow's my day off.</span> His mind made up, Manabu set about getting dressed for a good meal out and perhaps a nice drink. Someone else might have balked at going to a bar or restaurant alone, but he had long since lost contact with his old friends; with the exception of ALO, it would be safe to say that Manabu <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> no real social life. <span class=""bb-i"">Scary thought,</span> he mused as he walked off into the Tokyo night, cigarette in hand. <span class=""bb-i"">How many other ALO players are the same as me...?</span></div>"
1491,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-12 02:49:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Arina listened in silence with a smile on her face as her friends list slowly filled up with five new members. Many of them had already taken off and this made the archer really wonder if she had actually heard her request if they needed weapon reinforcing. Then again...she didn't blame them for taking off, she was ready to be out of her as well. A few stayed behind now but then they too started to fall out. Fuyuko was among the last and she said that if they needed a meeting space they could meet at her player home. This got Arina thinking that she should invest in a player home...
But her shop took the majority of her money. 

With a nod to herself she watched as the last of the group vanished and left her alone. It was time to take her leave she guessed. That last bit Fuyuko spoke, being online about 1900 JST. Arina paid it no mind, at this point. 
She archer brought up her menu and tapped on a teleport crystal and it manifest in her hand. She activated it and after a few seconds she was taken away by the magic of the crystal and when she opened her eyes she was standing in front of her shop in Cait Sith territory. 
Her shop was a cozy little two story shop with matching stone and wooden walls. It even had a water feature in front of it! She had to pay extra for that part but...eh, she liked it. 
She brought up her menu again and tapped on the key to her shop and used it to open the door. Once inside she locked it from behind and put her weapons down on the ground next to a small counter. 

She had several tables lined up with a two staircases near the back, one leading up and the other leading down. The one leading up was to a room she had yet to fully finish due to monetary issues. She planned for that to be her weapon enchanting room, but not only was her skill far too low for that she lacked the funds for proper equipment. It was rather expensive.
And the one leading down led to her forge, which she liked to think was in top shape. It was her pride. 
She had weapons lined up along the walls and weapons on the tables around the shop. But that was enough reminiscing about her shop. 
She brought up her menu once more and found the materials she had been given from that dungeon and moved them over to deposit them in the appropriate chest in her shop. 

Once that was done she sat down and swiped her menu up again and tapped on the Log Out button and logged out. 

After a groggy yawn and slow stretch Rhett took his Amusphere off of his head and sat it down on the small counter next to his bed. He sat up and stretched yet again before making his way out of his bedroom and into his kitchen/dining room. Rhett lived in the states in a small apartment of his own. 
He was fine with the small living space though. To some it might be a little unappealing but...he liked it. Not to mention that the place he stayed allowed- <span class=""bb-i"">""Arf!</span> 
Rhett looked down to his feet to see the smiling and happy face of his dog Parker, who was ever so ecstatic to see that he was awake from his sleep. Rhett knelt down and gave his dog a hug and a few pats before realizing what his dog was ultimately after. Now that Rhett was awake, it was time for food. 

The young man made his way over to the cabinet where he kept his dog food and started to open it before he realized his oven was on. He gave it a puzzled look and then remembered that he had been cooking a meal before he started playing ALFheim. 
He cursed under his breath as he ran over and managed to pull his almost roasted chicken out just in time. Luckily..he caught it before it got just too burnt. It was still edible enough to be good. 
He mentally patted himself on the back and then looked down the small patting feeling that was pawing at his leg. Parker was smelling the chicken. 
Rhett smirked and shook his head. ""You're ruining my life."" He joked to his dog with a smile before picking the chicken up with a fork and cutting it up a bit and placing it on a plate and scooting it on the floor for Parker to enjoy. 

Rhett...actually didn't want that chicken. Sure he did when he was first making it earlier but now he really wanted a sandwich or something. So as Parker nosily chowed down on the chicken Rhett made a simple PB&amp;J and added a few chips. 
He then made his way over to his couch and turned on his TV and started to eat his food and zone out to the TV. As he did this he started to think about those he met in that dungeon. The group he was with...he liked them. Even though one of them died in the beginning he had a feeling..that he meant to do that. 
Then..there was..Fuyuko, that was her in game name. Possibly the smallest tank he had ever seen. That player went against every tank stereotype he could think off from his past MMOs. 
Then there was that salamander that seemed to really know what she was doing. She was using magic and almost seemed like a berserker...rare build he had to say. But that was just his opinion. 
Then they had T1m who called himself ""Alex"" alot and he..well he used a boss weapon against the boss. Innovative..
Then there was Shishirou, the one who made references to other games. Rhett let out a few chuckles as he thought about that arrow to the knee thing that player said when they were fighting that mass of corpses. 

Before Rhett knew it he tried to reach his hand down to grab a chip or two only to realize that he was out. He was full now so he didn't feel like getting anymore. He really must have zoned out there..
With a small grunt he got up off the couch and made his way into the kitchen to put his plate in the sink. Parker was almost done with his gourmet meal and he looked to Rhett for a split second with a face of pure bliss. 
Then came a ringing from Rhett's pocket that made him jump. His phone was blaring as someone was calling him.

He brought it up and answered it with a obnoxious, ""Hello."" As he recognized the caller. It was his friend from college, Laren. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Rhett, are you student teaching any this week?""</span> She asked out of the blue. 

Rhett crossed one arm over his chest and held another up to his ear to hold his phone there. ""Um..not anymore this week. I've already student taught about 27 hours so that's good enough for me. I plan to pick up more on monday. History isn't exactly the most interesting thing to high school seniors you know?""
He let a few chuckles escape. 

The girl on the end of the call sighed. <span class=""bb-b"">""Well I was just wondering. I still have to get a few hours in but I'll be fine. Well, I was just calling to make sure you weren't slacking. What with that game that you play all the time and all.""</span> The girl scoffed in humor at the end there. 
Rhett did the same. ""Sure I play it quite a bit but my real life things come first. I'm not going to let the game consume me."" 

Laren let out a sigh on the other end. <span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah, whatever. We'll see.""</span> Rhett could tell she wasn't being that mean. With a brief moment of silence the girl shifted around and picked the phone back up. <span class=""bb-b"">""Well, I'll let you go. I've got some work to do anyways. Tell Parker I said 'Hi!', I'm sure he misses me.""</span>
With that she hung up and Rhett slipped his phone down. 

Parker had finished his meal by this point and let out a yawn which in turn caused Rhett to yawn. ""You tired?"" He said, as if his dog could respond. His body language gave it away. 
Rhett was tired too, so that meant his bed was calling him. After a quick trip to the bathroom to brush his teeth and all that good stuff Rhett returned to his bed and once he was settled in Parker jumped on his bed and curled up into a small ball at the end of his bed. 
With that done the two both slipped off into sleep and let themselves go. 

----------------
After what felt like an extremely long day Rhett was finally able to return home and do everything he needed to before he could slip into the virtual world. He sat on his bed and slipped his Amusphere on and then laid his body down. 
He switched it on and then felt his body slip off into the virtual world. 
After a few seconds Rhett opened up his eyes and looked down to see...significant changes in his body structure. He was now Arina. 

Arina got up from the chair she was sitting on and brought her key out and unlocked her shop door and flipped over the open sign. There was a small slip of paper under her door that would be her work orders. Simple things from NPC merchants and other players alike. 
She examined the order and shook her head at how simple some players made their orders. She wanted complex orders that challenged her. But, money was money. 
So the archer took off a few of her combat armor pieces and made her way down to her forge with the order in hand. As she did this she brought up her menu and tapped on some of the resources she would need. One was running rather low..

Once she had all of them she was about to close the menu when she saw the friends tab. She tapped on it and saw the list of five players she added the other day. What did Fuyuko say..if they wanted to meet up they could come to her player home? At..1900..JST? Wait..Japanese standard time? She assuemed that's what it meant. 
Well, she didn't check to see if they were online or not, instead she tapped on the send message button and added all of them as recipients of her message. She simply typed up, ""Hey, what's up? Want to meet up again?"" and then hit send. 
The message would reach of them individually but they could also toggle to see that she had sent it to all of them as a group. 

With that sent, she actually had no idea if any of them were online as she didn't really look but she assumed the message would reach them once they got on. Maybe they would think she was a stalker for that..or some kind of creep..
She quickly let that thought go as she brought her hammer down and caused sparks from the molten weapon part to fly up. She loved doing this. Not as much as fighting though, but she was happy to be a skiller.</div>"

It was currently 5:00 AM. <span class=""bb-i"">Good.</span> Alex thought.
He got up, yawned and stretched, walking out of his room and doing the morning arrangements. That is, making breakfast and his sister’s lunch. Nothing was more important than sustenance, after all. Alex lit the stove and fastened his apron as his sister sleepily walked out of her room clutching her pillow.
“Morning.” Alex said, beginning to cook.
“Mmm…” She said sleepily, still only half-conscious.
“You could have a bit more sleep, you know.” He said, frying up some bacon.
“But if I do that, I won’t be able to get up…” She said, drifting over to the couch.
She lay down and resumed dosing in a foetal position, pillow clutched to her chest. Alex smiled slightly and let her lay there. She was studying all night and could use the sleep. Alex prepared some breakfast as his sister dozed on the couch.

-----------

“Why didn’t you wake me up!?” Alexis yelled.
“Because you were asleep.” Alex said, chewing some rice. “There’s some rice around your mouth.”
It was now around 7:20, and the two were having breakfast. Alexis had woken up late, in the end, and had to make hasty preparations to go to school.
“Now I’m going to be late!” She said, furiously eating the breakfast.
“It’s fine. The school’s close by anyway.” Alex said. “Slow down before you choke.”
Alexis continued to eat in silent protest, glaring at Alex while he innocently consumed the meal.
“Oh, look at the time.” Alex said. “You should probably go now.”
At that, Alexis quickly shovelled the rest of her breakfast into her mouth and grabbed her bag, hastily opening the door.
“Don’t forget your lunch.” Alex said, holding it up.
Alexis ran back and grabbed it, quickly stuffing into her bag and left, quickly running out of the house.
“See you later.” Alex said belatedly.
Now, it was time to wash up and take a shower.

About an hour later, Alex was looking up things to do in Alfheim online. All he could really find was crafting, crafting, crafting and fishing, along with trolling and/or griefing… Well, Alex wasn’t mean enough to get in other people’s ways. He respected them enough not to do that. And other than that, he didn’t have fishing or crafting skills. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I should make an alt.</span> Alex thought. Then he saw something that perked his interest. Apparently, there were sword skills (which he’d noticed but not used that much) and then there were original skills, which were skills you made yourself. They apparently had pretty strict requirements, but it sounded interesting. And Alex already had something pretty amazing in mind.

With that, Alex got onto his bed and put the amusphere on, getting ready for the full dive. As it loaded, Alex set out a series of tasks he should complete, and if things went well, he’d have something really impressive. The amusphere loaded and he initiated full dive.

--------------------------

His body was soon coated in the leather coat he’d gotten a while ago, and the familiar weight of his great sword rested on his back. The familiar warmth of Steven became present on his head. He opened his eyes and he was back in his player home, a small and cheap one he bought only for the storage. He stretched his limbs experimentally, getting used to the body again. Alex then walked out of the house, locking the door behind him. As he did, he noticed that he had some notifications and opened them.

3 friend requests and a message. He checked the dates and the friend requests came from just as he ran out of the dungeon at full speed. They were from the rest of his party, except for Kite. Shrugging, he accepted them. <span class=""bb-i"">Shishirou, Fuyuko, Athena…</span> He said, ticking them off in his head. That done, he checked the message. It was one from Arina, their archer.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Hey, what's up? Want to meet up again?<footer> Arina</footer></blockquote>
Alex considered the question, and his reply. It was true that he had stuff to do, but it wasn’t anything he couldn’t put off for a while. Besides that, he didn’t really have anything other than start training for his original skill. So what should he right? Alex considered it for a moment and typed in a quick reply.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Up to you. I’ll be practising front flips all day so holler if you need me.<footer> T1m</footer></blockquote>
Alex’s hand hovered over the send button, a little hesitantly. It seemed a little informal, but Alex supposed that it would be better than seeming uptight. He shrugged and hit send, and his mind switched to other matters. Alex activated his wings and went somewhere secluded.

----------------

Landing on a clearing, he surveyed his surroundings. There were no monster spawns, and it was on a cliff. It was fairly wide, so he should have enough room. Additionally, it wasn’t far from Cait sith territory so he could go home if he really needed to. <span class=""bb-i"">Perfect.</span> Alex thought, stretching his hands. Steven jumped off his head and landed nearby to watch.

Alex wasn’t lying about the front flips. To do something cool, this needed to be done first. His acrobatics was pretty good, but practise was essential to make it work. Alex jumped on the spot a few times and stopped, preparing for the first front flip. With a spring of his feet, he smoothly performed a forward flip landing on his feet. <span class=""bb-i"">Alright, so far so good.</span> Alex thought. <span class=""bb-i"">Now to do that around 3 times in a row.</span> Jumping on the spot again, he flipped forward once more, bending his knees as he landed and sprung into another one, landing a little less gracefully than the previous one, and did it once more. On this one, he almost fell, finding it hard to keep his orientation after 3 flips. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, this is alright.</span> Alex thought. But this was just the beginning. If he did it right, it would be quite the impressive move, and it would likely scare the pants off just about anyone on the receiving end. Alex grinned evilly at the thought. This move would certainly be something to behold if he did it right.</div>"
1493,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-14 23:37:00,Hebigami Shiho,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The next day, Shiho woke up with her dog, Shirou, licking her face. It wasn't her alarm, neither the sunlight going through the window that woke her up. No, it was her dog. And Shiho knew what that meant. <font color=""#fff200"">""Crap, I'm late!""</font> She jumped out of her bed as fast as she could and got ready at the same pace. To be noted, Shiho has no sense of time, neither while sleeping nor when playing, hence why she is late from time to time. After eating a quick breakfast, just for the sake of breaking cliches of running out of her house with an slice of bread in her mouth, she was finally ready to go to college. 

What she had forgotten, though, was that her first lecture started a pair of hours later today, different to all the other days. She really had to do something about her old habit of waking up with the thought of her being late when her dog starts licking her face. No, even better, she should do something about Shirou, make him stop doing that. She was mostly satisfied with the excuse of a breakfast she had before, so she settled on having a coffee to help her kill time. Most of her friends weren't airheads like her, so she would probably be alone for a time. 

After remembering she had no money on her, though, she went to the nearest ATM, check if she had even something in her account, perhaps just enough for a coffee. When she checked it, she was surprised to see that all of her money was in her account yet again. Her parents didn't tell her anything, but she knew them all too well. She took out the money she needed and left for the cafe. <font color=""#fff200"">""Those tsundere parents. It kinda makes me want to see how they were when they were younger.""</font>
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

Later that day, and after working her shift, Shiho finally arrived to her house. It was around 7 when she arrived to her house. It was just about time for her to go into ALO yet again. She sent a message to her friends, seeing if any of them wanted to get in too. Unfortunately, all of them were too busy. Probably with their boyfriends or otherwise. It was really annoying... Then again, she could get together with the group from yesterday. She could see if any of them got any of the references she did yesterday, after all, they all were from borderline vintage games and anime (for the year they were in, that is). It'd be really cool if they got them. Besides, the group was also filled with girls. A rare sight in ALO, since Shiho thought her group was one of the few all-women parties you could find in ALO. There were some guys, but most of them were girls. At least, that was what she thought.

She laid down on her bed and took the Amusphere in her hands, putting it on her head and over her eyes. Her dog seemed really excited as it saw what Shiho was doing. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'll be back in a bit, Shirou. Take care of the house while I'm gone! Link Start!""</font> Her vision was filled with colors and after a while, Shiho found herself in her player home, laying down. She was now in the body she felt most comfortable in, Shishirou. 

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

She stood up from the bed and stretched out a bit. Ah, it felt good not having her feet so far away from her head. Now, what to do, send everyone a message? Wait, she didn't really send a friend invite to everyone yesterday... Still, some of them had already accepted her own, and a message had arrived for her. Maybe it was from one of the guys from yesterday? She opened it and saw that it came from the Cait Sith archer, Arina, directed to everyone. Well, she might as well go and spend some time with them. Alex also sent a message, saying he would also meet her later. She nodded happily. The group was coming together nicely. She opened the keyboard so she could reply. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sure, let's meet up! I could really use some company right now, given that my usual group ditched me. o͡͡͡͡͡͡╮(｡&gt;口&lt;｡)╭o͡͡͡͡͡͡ ᵑ৹! 

Where should we meet?</span>

She hit the send button after her message was all done with. Well, until Arina could answer them, maybe she should go to a local bar and play some music? Nah, it was Pooka territory, surely there were already one, or several people, there playing something. It was a bit heated, the battles between bard to take possession of a bar as their own. She preferred to skip on them for at least today and better fly at some neutral territory, where it would be stranger to see a Pooka.

He started off by killing the first monster he could find. that was until he got bored and took flight in the air. Using his high vantage point he was able to scout a group of three trolls. Using his aerial position Kite charged right at the troll while he drew his curved blade. He sliced one dealing a third of its HP as he landed past the group so he could fight on the ground. With their argo on him he braced for the monsters to charge at him. Keeping is eyes on the troll he hit so he could take it down and reduce the amount of hits the enemy could get him for. Then all three of them charged a Kite as he parried one of their clubs and took damage from the other two. Kite swung his blade at the troll he was focusing on until he realized his blade was shorter than the clubs. 

It would be useful to have something with a longer reach but that was not going to help him now. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Ecce autem Vide Geminus!""</font> Kite yelled his incantation. Then the one Spriggan became three Spriggans. Kite's spell allowed him to create duplicates of himself. Given they were only illusions but they were ll he needed to get a good opening in a battle. The three Sprigans ran in an interlocking pattern and then separated into three directions. As each Troll attacked a different Kite two were sliced through and one was parried. With that using his Quick Dash Kite took the opening and Impaled the Troll in the chest until it disappeared. As the two remaining Trolls saw that Kite was alive and had killed their friend companion h redrew their Argo. 


An hour later Kite arrived a his cabin. He acquired this place from a Leprechaun who was on the verge of quitting the game. It wasn't big but it wan't too small either. It was a typical one person logged cabin. He rested his blade on a rack he kept attached to his wall as he laid down on the floor. <font color=""#1b1464"">""That was pretty close, huh.?""</font> He thought out loud. Those trolls were not powerful but he still managed to allow his HP to drop to the fifty-five percentage mark. <font color=""#1b1464"">""I guess I could use a better weapon.""</font> He said as he logged out.



 Fifteen Year old Takeshi Klouda pulled the Amusphere off his head as he sat up from his bed. 9:35 P.M. It sure was getting late. It was about time for young Takeshi to head to bed if he was going to be up for school in the morning. As he strolled down the hallway he saw that his mother was still not home yet. Takeshi wasn't exacly sure where his mother was going tonight but it wasn't exactly his problem. All he had to worry about was Food, School, and ALO. After brushing his teeth the young man changed for bed and soon fell asleep.

The next day in school was boring as usual. Takeshi Klouda sat through every class with a bored look on his face. Why couldn't people be a bit more passionate like they were in ALO. He spent most of the time his teacher talked doing the assignments that were due the next day. Takeshi had no idea why he showed up since he could probably teach himself the lessons and do the work in  quicker time than it took for his teachers to gt the point across. He secretly hoped that school would get harder after he completed the ninth grade but he wasn't holding his hopes up for a challenge. By the time he arrived home all of his homework was completed and he changed out of his school uniform and hung it up. He pulled out the Amusphere from his closet and placed it on his head as he layed on the bed. ""<font color=""#1b1464"">Link Start!</font>"" He commanded as the electronic machine pulled his conscience into the world of ALO.

As soon as Takeshi transformed into Kite he stood up and attached his Curve Blade Sword to him again. He gathered up his item pouch filled with HP and Mana potions.  When Kite pulled his screen up to see he got a message from that Cait Sith who friended him last night. He also a couple more friend requests which he deleted on impulse. They were interesting but they didn't all need to be on his list to contact him. Then he remembered hearing something about that Alina thing being a blacksmith. <font color=""#1b1464"">""Maybe I can get a better range from her.""</font> He said.

Kite soared with his wings to propel himself to the Cait Sith town. He wasn't sure of the exact name since he never comes here. He looked in every blacksmith shop until he found that tiny archer from last night behind one of the counters. It looked like it was a smaller type of shop but it was a shop no less. It bothered kite to see all of the cat people muttering what a Spriggan was doing here but he didn't care. If they started something he may not be able to damage there HP but he sure had the ability to knock them away. ""<font color=""#1b1464"">Hey Cait Sith girl, can you make me a couple of daggers. Oh and any tips for long range combat if you have them?""</font> He blatantly said to her.</div>"
1495,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-15 05:32:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-i"">Mere hours had passed since Natsuki had woken up, and once again returned to the world of ALfheim Online...</span>

Athena marched her way through the halls of the beautiful instanced dungeon, which was designed to resemble a grand palace hall, complete with smooth, ivory-white pillars, polished marbled floors, and curtains accented with gold. The bright light outside streamed in through the gaps of the curtains, filling the hall with a heavenly glow. This deceptively beautiful dungeon was not a particularly high-difficulty area, nor was its treasure particularly bountiful. The true ""treasure"" that Athena sought was the challenge of putting her newfound blade <span class=""bb-i"">Wraithslayer</span>, which sat faithfully in its scabbard at her side, to the test against this dungeon's final boss.

Moving past the tall stone doors and entering into what appeared to be the palace dungeon's throne room, Athena came to a slow halt as her eyes took in the wonderful sight that lay before her. The grand hall's ceiling towered far above, through a tiny opening, a few bright rays of light shone through, falling upon the two empty cushioned seats, undoubtedly belonging to the King and Queen of the castle. Having already been to this area before through a past quest, Athena already knew that no such King or Queen existed in the game. This room, devoid of any valuable treasures, was designed solely with the intention of being trap for unsuspecting players.

<span class=""bb-b"">""You have trespassed upon hallowed ground, intruder. Your presence will be cleansed accordingly.""</span> A loud, booming disembodied voice spoke, filling the room with its presence as the heavy stone doors slammed shut behind her. A slight smirk crept across Athena's face as the boss's AI went through its preset routine. Athena's sword hand remained empty by her side as she waited for the boss to finally make its appearance. Her shield which she carried in her off-hand, had not yet been raised.

As the echo of the boss's announcement finally faded, a humanoid shape shimmered into view as the game system constructed the virtual manifestation of the boss's physical form - a giant, silver-plated armored knight that stood easily twice the height as Athena's own character. In its armored right gauntlet, the system formed a giant heavy greatsword, which the armored knight easily lifted upwards with a single hand. Above the boss's head, a green single HP bar filled up, along with the text ""Royal Guardian Knight"" which indicated the boss's name.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Oh, don't worry about me. I'll be gone before you know it.""</font> Athena responded half-heartedly in a bored tone, clearly not the least intimidated by the giant's imposing presence. Of course, the boss's AI was not programmed with enough sophistication to respond to player verbal interactions, and it simply responded by lifting its heavy greatsword above its shoulders, readying its first attack.

As the armored knight suddenly swung its greatsword downwards at Athena's head, she responded by drawing out her sword, which instantly wrapped itself in the cloak of invisibility granted by its <span class=""bb-i"">Invisible Weapon</span> item effect. Fluidly chaining together the act of drawing her sword with the swing of her counterattack, the invisible blade struck against the knight's own weapon. In the real world, one would expect that the weapon with greater mass would easily overpower the one with lighter mass, but the two colliding blades were  recognized by the game's system as being approximately equal in terms of raw statistics, with Athena's weapon having the advantage. With a shower of blue and yellow sparks, Athena's <span class=""bb-i"">Wraithslayer</span> overpowered the giant greatsword, causing the boss's weapon to bounce back with great force, leaving it open to further attacks.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">My sword has a length of approximately ninety centimeters, I should be able to strike it from this range...</font></span> Athena thought to herself, as she quickly calculated the approximate dimensions of her invisible blade, and swiftly lunged with the blade with a powerful thrust into the knight's armor, sending its HP bar shooting down by about 30%. The knight responded by uttering out a pained gasp which echoed through its plated helmet, transforming the gasp into a savagely monstrous roar, and immediately counterattacked by blindly swinging down its weapon where Athena stood. Anticipating the counterattack, Athena evaded by stepping to the side, letting the blade smash into the stone floor beneath, instantly causing it to crumble into rubble. Not allowing the knight the opportunity to recover from her last attack, Athena lashed out with her sword with several lightning-quick strikes of her invisible blade, causing the boss's single HP bar dropping in increments of 10% per strike, with such speed that it appeared that she was wielding a whip rather than a sword.

With her 7-strike attack, the armored knight froze in mid-motion where it stood, the HP bar above its head now completely drained of green color, disappearing from view moments later.

<span class=""bb-b"">""A knight with an invisible sword? What is this... madness?""</span> The armored knight's booming voice echoed around Athena as its physical form burst into countless shards of blue light, slowly fading into nothingness. As Athena returned her sword to its scabbard, she could not help but pause to think for a moment about the knight's strange remark before its death. It was eerily similar to the corpse monster that she had fought the previous day, where it seemed to act with a strange intelligence unlike any other AI in the game. Athena shook her head in an attempt to shake off the thought. It seemed ridiculous then, and it seemed even more ridiculous now. Besides, it wasn't uncommon for dungeon bosses to speak a line of preset dialogue upon death on occasion.

Just as the loot window appeared from where the armored knight boss dematerialized, a second window appeared above it. Curious, Athena tapped open the second window, revealing a short message from Arina, the Cait Sith archer that she had grouped up with just yesterday. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Hey, what's up? Want to meet up again?""</span> The message read.

Having her day's plans already set, Athena was almost ready to politely decline Arina's invitation, but then she suddenly remembered the archer's parting words from the previous day.

<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">""I don't know what all loot you guys got but if it's a weapon and you would like it improved or enchanted then talk to me! I'm kind of the number one crafter in this game.""</span></font>
<font color=""#a187be""><span class=""bb-i"">Well, I guess my sword could use an upgrade if the Cait Sith could manage it. It's weapon statistics are barely better than my old longsword...</span></font> Athena thought to herself as she glanced at the sheathed sword at her side. For a boss-drop weapon it was rather unremarkable in terms of pure numerical statistics, but the added item effect might also make it more difficult for the average player to upgrade. With her character's skills more oriented towards creating and improving heavy armor, Athena was hopelessly unable to make any improvements herself. Turning her attention back to the boss loot window, Athena tapped through the onscreen menus to retrieve her loot. As expected, the loot wasn't particularly impressive due to the relatively low difficulty of the boss compared to her own character's statistics, but the amount of <span class=""bb-i"">Yrd</span> that she obtained from the boss would help pay for half a month of rent at a comfortable inn in a capital city. It was a pity that she couldn't make this luxurious palace her own player home - the boss and other monsters would eventually respawn to reclaim its halls within a day's time.

As soon as she re-emerged from the palace's outer entrance, Athena stretched out her character's wings and took flight towards Cait Sith territory. Even though the races weren't currently in active conflict, it remained somewhat unnerving to travel to another race's territory, where it was possible to be attacked without the possibility for counterattacking due to the game's safe zone system. Athena hoped that the temporary presence of a lone Salamander character wouldn't raise too much attention by the Cait Sith inhabitants.

Using the locator function of her Friend List, Athena made her way through the skies to the town where Arina was located, her eyes easily making out the distinctive appearance of a typical blacksmith shop. Carefully making a discreet landing so as to avoid unnecessary attention by the Cait Sith players nearby, Athena made her way directly towards Arina's blacksmith shop, making sure to close the door behind her rather than letting it close by itself.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Hello, Arina, it's good to see you again. I was thinking about taking you up on your offer from yesterday. The weapon I received from the boss is proving itself to be useful, but it could use some upgrading if you're up for the challenge.""</font> Athena greeted the Cait Sith player as she retrieved the <span class=""bb-i"">Wraithslayer</span> from its scabbard.

<font color=""#a187be"">""...And as you can see, handling it might be a little... difficult.""</font> Athena finished her sentence as the sword melted away from sight in her hands. Noticing that she and Arina weren't the only two in the shop, Athena then saw another player standing nearby, who was clearly not a Cait Sith, quickly recognizing him as the Spriggan player that she had grouped up yesterday.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Oh, didn't see you over there. Good to see you again, Kite.""</font> Athena greeted the Spriggan with her usual polite manner of speaking.</div>"
1496,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-17 00:52:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">There was a loud clang as Arina brought her hammer down on the base weapon in front of her and watched it take the shape of the boring weapon a player in her territory asked her to make. Once it was done she placed her hammer to the side and picked up the sword carefully and gave it a good look over. She cast her eyes down to the work order and then back to the weapon. It seemed to match the customer's specs, so she considered it done. With that she carefully placed the weapon to the side and let out a soft sigh. 

As if that was timed perfectly she heard the bell at her door ring to tell her that someone had entered her shop. She grabbed a rag from the table next to her and started to wipe her hands down as she came up the stairs and made her way to the front of her shop. She hadn't checked her messages yet so she didn't see any replies or anything. 
But she recognized the person who was in her shop now. It was Kite. The spriggan from the dungeon the other day. 
That was a quick response..if he was responding to what she sent to all of them. Arina opened up her mouth to say something but he beat her to speaking and immediately asked about making a couple of daggers and tips on ranged combat. Arina gave him a puzzled look and her ears gave a few twitches as she processed his question. 

After a few seconds she shook her head and crossed her arms over her chest and decicded to do just what she needed since he was asking for a work order. <font color=""red"">""Couple of daggers hmm? Well, what kind are you looking for? Daggers are short, so medium short or like..a shiv short? Also, any specific kind of design or effect? I can only give basic enchantments at the moment. Once I get better equipment I can produce high level enchantments. But *ahem* that's.. really..Tips on long range combat? You don't use bows do you?""</font>
She cocked her head to the side a bit in question. She didn't know how to really answer this because of the skill system in this game. She knew the skill determined your overall power and proficiency with a weapon type but...
<font color=""red"">""Well, I guess the first tip would be to just stay calm and hold your aim. Know your weapon and its dimensions so you know how far your projectile can and will fly. Also the-..""</font>

The ding at the door sounded again and it broke Arina's concentration. Another familiar face had entered her shop! It was Athena. She greeted her and Arina gave a small head nod to accept her greeting. 
Again she opened her mouth to say her own greeting but Athena beat her to speaking as well. She asked about taking her up on her blacksmithing. If she was up for it. 
<font color=""red"">""Hmmph!""</font> She said as she kept her arms crossed and puffed her chest up a bit. <font color=""red"">""I'm ashamed that you would think I'm not up for it! Ehehe...um..I mean...yes. I'm up for it..""</font> With that awkwardly said she waited to see her weapon. 

Athena pulled the weapon out and then it seemed to just...disappear. Athena was definetly holding something...but..it was just so strange. Arina blinked a few times and stretched out a hand to try and touch the hilt of the blade that Athena's hand was wrapped around. She surely felt it and once she did she let out a soft gasp and drew her hand back. <font color=""red"">""You're joking..</font>
Arina dropped her hands and stared at the non existent weapon in the air. <font color=""red"">""That's...like nothing I've ever seen..in this game. But, I'm sure I can do something with it. While I'm working I won't be..actually touching it if it's with a weapon like this I won't be taking the hammer to it. Where did you get this thing?""</font>
With that she gave a puzzled look to Athena and then heard a small ping from her menu that broke her concentration yet again. She swiped her menu down and saw that T1m had replied to her group message. He said he was down but in the meantime he was practicing..backflips? That seemed odd but she didn't question it. She then brought up her keyboard and typed, ""Alright, well a few of us are here at my shop in Cait Sith Territory. If you want to stop by then feel free to do so. &lt;point of interest&gt;"" 
The PoI was the location of her shop.

After that she swiped her menu away and looked to both of them. <font color=""red"">""Sorry about that...I had a message. But, um, this actually works out. Two orders at once.""</font> She gave a small smile to them. 
<font color=""red"">""I'm happy you both took me up on my offer. Just let me know what you would like done, both of you. And now, besides that, what have you two been up to?""</font>
She leaned on of her many tables in her shop and let her body rest as she waited for their responses and requests.</div>"

“Meow.” He replied.
“Yeah, it’s pretty tough. But it’s good, isn’t it?” Alex asked.
“Meow.” The cat said.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry. It’s not done yet.” Alex said.
He was taking a break and eating a light meal. But if he was hungry now, then he would be hungry in real life. He should log off soon to make dinner, maybe. Suddenly, he got a message from Arina. He opened it to read it.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Alright, well a few of us are here at my shop in Cait Sith Territory. If you want to stop by then feel free to do so.<footer>Arina</footer></blockquote>
There was a point of interest on the message, which was probably Arina’s forge. Alex considered the notion. He wasn’t exactly doing anything at all right now, but his skill wasn’t done yet. There also wasn’t really any real reason to go, but maybe he could get a reaction out of her by showing her his zombie arm. Alex shrugged. He may as well. He’d work on the skill again sooner or later. He grabbed Steven, activated his wings, sprinted off of the cliff and took off, boosting forward quickly, heading directly towards the point of interest.

Alex crash landed once again, his favourite method of landing. They probably heard that. Dusting himself off, he put Steven on his head again and opened the door with one hand, opening his inventory with the other.
“Hey, anyone want a zombie hand?” He said, pulling out the rotten limb.</div>"

Basic Plot: The plot is based around strange occurrences happening in the ALFheim game. It all started with a noticeable glitch in the Cardinal System that runs the game. The glitch seemed to cause no problems and the engineering team was able to remedy the problem fairly quickly with the game only being down for two to three hours of scheduled maintenance.

Weeks passed after this glitch happened and small reports started to come up that a few people who were using the new Amusphere to play ALFheim were not waking up after they logged out. These individuals who were reported in were taken to the nearest hospital and it was there they discovered these patients weren't dead. They were simply stuck in a coma, with the Amusphere stuck in a permanent ""On"" state. One doctor reported that even when he pulled plug on the Amusphere the lights stayed on and it continued to operate. As if it had no battery life anymore.

The numbers of patients stuck like this are very very low at the moment. Estimated about 100 players or so stuck like this. But that's not the end. Friends of these players would report seeing their old avatars around various locations where they spent most of their time. Such as, dungeon planning spots, player homes, Guild bases. But their avatars seemed bland and as if they didn't remember anything. 

No one is sure why these things are happening to players. But that hasn't stopped the millions from playing the game on a daily basis.

I usually try to keep my posts around the Semi Advanced length...or High casual I guess xD My posts have been fairly longer than usual due to also playing the boss. But I don't mind that at all :D

I'm excited for that too :D I was kind of hesitant to have us start out with a boss fight and then having real character interaction later :) I'm assuming it is working effectively? xD

If people see ""Alex"" written repeatedly in a post, it's counter-intuitive to everyone to suddenly start writing ""Tim"".

In the SAO light novels, the author avoids this confusion by always using ""Kirito"" (for example) to refer to the character while inside the game, and ""Kazuto"" while he's in the real world. Makes sense, since Kirito is the one doing the face-slicing in the virtual world while Kazuto is lying in a bed doing nothing in the real world.</div>"

Tanking is legitimately the most boring thing you can do in an MMO. At least healers have to think triage.</div>"

Tanking can get frustrating when boss aggro goes out of control and starts taking out your squishies, but I do like the ""no f*cks given"" playstyle when it comes to PvPing as a tank. My favorite role has to be heavy armor mages, even though your raw damage suffers because of the stat requirements for heavy armor, your crowd-control and disable durations are usually fixed numbers that only depend on skill level. An unkillable CC/debuff/disable machine is very, very scary.</div>"

Makes for a hell of a fun game. Every time I try tanking or even have a character with high defence, the game just becomes a matter of standing still and pressing the right buttons at the right time. Much prefer the idea of dying in a couple of hits; pure adrenaline in PvP.</div>"
1593,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-07 23:37:00,Stella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Hehe we're complete opposites in our playstyles it seems. :D

Back when I played MMOs (I haven't for years), I kept to guild vs guild PvP, so having a tanky build and not dying was very important. Being tanky allows you to be useful even when you're not actively attacking, for example, if you've been stunned or CC'ed - you can't do anything, so might as well stay alive and take as many hits as you can. Every enemy that's attacking you is one less enemy that's attacking someone else in your guild/party. Staying alive is important for group morale, if your guildmates are watching each other dying off like flies, they're going to very quickly lose their will to fight. Likewise, being difficult to kill damages the enemy's morale as they start feeling helpless when their attacks [seem to] do nothing.

Then again, I may be in the minority since I have an ""Art of War"" mindset when it comes to PvP. You know, ""act strong when you are weak, act weak when you are strong"" kind of thinking.</div>"
1594,ALFheim Online: Stuck in Limbo,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75923-alfheim-online-stuck-in-limbo,['Casual'],2015-02-08 00:57:00,DontCallMeZelda,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alright! Sorry for taking so long to post :P 

But now I figured that since the boss was dead all of our players would start winding down and go their separate ways. Then, the story would pick up the ""next day"" in the RP.

Now since we are doing this I just wanted to say that we don't have to just strictly follow the main story that I had planned out. We are playing in a MMORPG. I made my character be a smith/crafts(wo)man for a reason. I might one day when the story is kind of slow or just cause have Arina be like, ""Would you or (insert players who want to participate) mind helping me go extract some rare material from some dangerous dungeon or area."" 
You know? 

And I will post side quests that we can do periodically so we won't just follow some cookie cutter story. 

ALSO. If YOU have an idea for a side quest or for some random thing that your character wants to do then don't hesitate to ask! Send me a PM with your quest or..adventure? Idea and we'll go from there! I will most likely always accept it.
And if we do this and (this is just for an example, sorry Stella, I just see you post above this and I just decided to use you xD) Stella doesn't want her character to go along with this. 
Then once we finish our side mission thing we can all come back together and Stella can say her character was off leveling or something so we can all stay on the same field of playing.

One last thing about Quests and stuff: I know it is mentioned in the ALFheim story arc that there are legendary? weapons that players can get after completing some hard quest line. I.e. Excalibur for Kirito. Since we have the Cardinal system in play we can say that it is randomly generating new legendary weapons every now and then. But..not like crazy. 
Then say Fuyuko learns of a new legendary war hammer that she wants and wants us to help, we can go do that as well. 

I just, don't want anyone to get bored you know? I want us to have as much fun with this as possible and do all the things we want to do, within reason xD.

But that's my spill for now. 

Also, some good character development should be coming soon :P Now that we aren't really fighting we can just have a good time with our characters. That sounds dirty. Only if you want it to be.

I didn't give a boss name since I felt like I was pressed and stuff. Seeing as how I pulled a boss directly from Dark Souls 2 I didn't give a name because I don't want to keep doing that. 
So its name can be whatever. Or just call it its Dark Souls name, ""The Rotten"". Every boss from now on will be more creative than that.</div>"

The only ways of travel are on foot or by wings. It's the reason why death was such a big deal to Kirito when he and Leafa were traveling to the World Tree. If he died, then he would have to spend several more days traveling/flying back to where he was, and he didn't have that kind of time to lose because of a spoilerish reason.

This has been an episode of <span class=""bb-i"">The More You Know</span>, brought to you by Stella.

That's what I found after doing a search of ""teleport"" and ""crystals"" in Vol. 3,4 (Fairy Dance) and Vol 7 (Mother's Rosario).

Just food for thought, this is the quote that flat-out says that teleport crystals don't exist (found in the Vol.3 Fairy Dance arc):


<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Quote"" type=""button"">Quote [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">In ALO, because there are wings to fly, other means of instantaneous movement do not exist. Therefore, journeying to the center of the world, the world tree, and the capital of ALfheim, «Aarun» is just like a journey in the real world.</blockquote></div></div>

Normally I would have kept quiet about the inconsistencies in the RP, but when our characters are going to be traveling off together, it's going to be madly confusing when some characters take out teleport crystals and some go off flying.

Anyways, time to get hammering out an IC post.</div>"

Even so, the guiding system won't prevent a weapon skill from ""whiffing"" since they can be activated without a target in range. Examples: When Klein tries out his sword skill in the first episode of SAO, and when Kirito tests his dual sword skill in front of Lisbeth. So without proper knowledge of the weapon's dimensions and attack range, ""whiffing"" is definitely possible.

From a RPing perspective, the added difficulty is so that Athena isn't given a super-fecking-awesome weapon right off the bat. She has to work for it.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Finn Rohrbach

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 46

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> A jumble of thoughts, Finn tends to jumble his words together since his mind works much faster than his mouth. He often has to slow his speech down to snails pace for anyone to understand him. He is ever curious and will always put science above all else, even his own life. He often will not eat while experimenting as it would only slow progress which is why he is so skinny all of the time. He does not socialize outside of his lab and will not normal talk to others unless explaining his latest and greatest experiment. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Finn grew up in a home that never believed in him. They all told him he'd be a farmer like his dad, but Finn wanted desperately to prove himself. He got such good grades in school that he got a full ride to a college in America and immediately moved to the states, gaining his citizenship. After graduating, Finn stayed in America and acquired a job nearby a college with his own lab. At first, he wasn't concerned with fighting crime, but certain events led up to this. The discovery of a new, interesting element, Element Zero, as Rohrbach called it, and the murder of his wife, Lucille. Bent on justice, Rohrbach uses this new element to create a band of superheroes to fight crime in his stead.</div></div></div>"

Name: Veronica Lisa Chambers, Vee to her friends
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Personality: Veronica is generous and kind, almost to a fault. She tends to want to give people what they need and ask nothing in return, which often leaves her broke, and then winds up needing money bad, but somehow it always works out for her.
Background: Veronica is majoring in Business, and actually owns her own store, a small cafe called ""The Fresh Pot"". The cafe is relatively successful, but Veronica usually winds up giving most of her profits to charity. On the most recent occasion, she didn't leave herself enough money to pay her rent, which is why she took the professor's offer.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Penelope Elizabeth Wright

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Always the critic, Penelope doesn't like to admit that other people are right, preferring to stubbornly believe what she'd always believed even when presented with concrete evidence. She is very loyal but hard to approach as she always seems to portray this 'Stay away from me,' aura. She enjoys talking after she's had her coffee, but before then, she'll bite even the meekest of persons' head off.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> An only child, Penelope has almost always gotten things the way she wanted and now as an adult she can't cope with the fact that she has to work for a living. She would rather dream big even if it was completely out there. She craves desperately to be writer but would rather wait for someone to notice her rather than put herself out there. She in college as a creative writing major, hoping to one day write her own novels.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chosen Pill Color:</span> Orange

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Besides her addiction to coffee, Penelope is addicted to cigarettes and will light one when she is stressed.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Orion Striphe

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Cold, brisk, and sharp are the three words that describes him. He's generally abrupt to most strangers, and even colder to those he dislikes. It will take a while for you to warm up to him, and vice versa. Generally keeps an aloof behavior, and never allows emotion to cloud his eyes. Can be rather teasing, however, when it suits him, and rather lazy as well. Incredibly intelligent, and skilled when he feels that it requires it. When interacting with those younger than him; children, basically, Orion will usually be kind and older-brotherly, treating them with kindness that belies his usually personality of distance and apathy. However, despite all of this, he has a relatively warm heart with friends, and when among those he likes, he cracks the occasional joke, and can even give helpful, wise advice. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Orion went to college to major in Visual and Performance Arts. He possesses a lean, muscular figure, and he's rather good at a variety of dancing and acrobatics - despite his usual appearance of coats and hoodies. He is a quickly advancing young man in the art of capoeira; mostly because of his flexibility and the way swaying and flipping/break-dancing comes easy to him. In general, he had a nice life ahead of him...if only he didn't hit that bottom. Loan sharks, basically. Damn mom apparently sent them his way, since he didn't be a lawyer like she wanted. Whatever. He ended up broke, and this...this would help, the man said. So...why not? He should have been more vigilant.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ferghus Gilroy

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 24 (A Bit late to college) 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ferghus is a man who, on the outside, appears to be rather gruff, however anyone who gets to know the guy will soon find out that he is about as gentle as a butterfly. Soft spoken and kindhearted are two defining traits that mister Gilroy prides himself on, although, he has a problem keeping his true feelings about anything in particular to himself. He finds it quite difficult to be secretive and likes to face the consequences of his action head on.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Ferghus is an Irishman who spent the majority of his life performing in his family's traveling circus. From the very day he could walk and talk his father began training the boy to be a great strongman like himself. Ferghus was able to see all sorts of people across his life and due to such he developed a rather detached worldview and morality. 

Sure, times were fine for him and his family, but Ferghus was never schooled resulting in him being unfortunately uneducated, this frustrated him to no end, there were so many things that he could not understand. Beginning in his teenaged years Ferghus bought as many books as he could, studying things such as simple mathematics to skimming over sciences. And though it took the poor boy nine tries he finally passed the test in order to get a General Educations Diploma. But this was only his first step. Ferghus hoarded the money earned from the days and nights spent performing and put it towards a fund for college. Traveling to a mediocre college that his money could buy in to Ferghus knew that the road would be harsh and unforgiving. Always with a curiosity for knowledge and the arts, the strongman majored in English literature, in hopes that he would one day be able to write stories as eloquently as the greats before his time.

Unfortunately, the boy was unable to do much research on what life would be like during college, money was short and it might have been all over quick, if he hadn't gotten word that there was some sort of opportunity for him. Some scientist named Rohrbach or something, he had no where else to turn to. Ferghus plunged himself into a future that would almost certainly be fraught with hardships. The purple pill was swallowed without a second thought.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chosen Pill Color:</span> Purple pill / Super Agility

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Ferghus has a tiny bit of skill in forms of brawling due to his days as a young circus strongman, although he is more a mountain of thought and reflection than a burly tough guy.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Heather is very competitive, going to great lengths to win anything she has set her sights on. The only place she is not as competitive is her actual school work. When it comes to other matters, Heather is very focus and is not afraid to be harsh to get what she wants. She is also very outgoing, confident,  and loves to laugh, even if it is sometimes at the expense of others. It should also be noted that Heather’s temper is very short and explosive. She is not afraid to snap on something if they set her off, unfortunately this means that she tends to say or do things she may regret later. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
Since Heather could walk, her parents expected the world out of her. She was captain of the t-ball team, sold the most Girl Scout cookies three years in a row, played softball and volleyball in middle school, and was enrolled in all the honor classes.  It looked like the perfect family, but not so much. Her parents fought and Heather always felt her accomplishments were the only thing that kept her parents happy. In highschool her parents finally had enough of each other and split.  Without the pressure of her parents’ divorce looming over, Heather decided to rebel instead of obeying. Heather failed out of the honors classes (She cheated anyway) Dropped from almost all her clubs and found that partying with the rich kids was more her style. The only activity Heather remained enrolled in was track, because running was the only thing that made sense. Good thing she kept with track too, because it turned out she was good enough for a scholarship. Heather majored in health and physical fitness with the aspiration to become a personal trainer while running college track, and at first things went well. But Heather started partying again and things began to spiral. Her grades dropped too low, she was placed on probation from sports, and her scholarship was lost. Luckily, she scrapped together enough money from her parents and student loans to remain for another semester.  Now she is trying to raise her grades to reapply for her scholarship and trying to live without track for a semester. Maybe this new program will help her take her mind off things and the extra money couldn’t hurt. 

<span class=""bb-b"">:Chosen Pill Color</span>: Red 

<span class=""bb-b"">Likes:</span> Running is the first thing that comes to mind. After that, Heather likes red bulls, apples and anything apple flavor, early mornings, the occasional joint, and a good college party. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Dislikes:</span> seafood, cats, and people who can’t fucking drive.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Emily Clarke

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Emily goes through life at a relaxed pace, even when everyone around her is in a rush. She leaves no page unturned and no decision unplanned, quietly confident in herself and those around her. She is very logical and doesn't bring attention to herself, yet she enjoys the finer things in life and is thus commonly seen wearing...well, things like in her picture. She practices tai chi and is known to meditate on occasion. All this doesn't mean she has no sense of humor, however; she's always searching for a song to sing and a laugh to share.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Emily had an idyllic upbringing, raised in the suburbs by an upper middle class family. She quickly decided to refuse financial assistance from anyone (especially her parents), viewing ""old money"" as undeserved. When old enough to work, she started from scratch, working anywhere that would hire her. A string of jobs including receptionist jobs, a long stint at Chipotle and the occasional modeling gig eventually earned her enough money to afford higher education, and she enrolled in college as soon as she could. Studying to become an architect, she now works a part-time job as a receptionist for the university. Although she has a steady flow of income, the lucrative nature of Project Olympia combined with her scientific ""why not?"" conclusion drew her to the experiment.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chosen Pill Color:</span> Maroon

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Emily can often be found with headphones on her ears. She usually serenades herself to the sweet sounds of the Alan Parsons Project, and enjoys singing despite never taking any lessons or being in choir.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> <font color=""#a0410d"">Ray Joe Ali Johnson</font>
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Tough, hardworking and determined are the traits he is most identified with. He hates being treated as weak and moreover hates other people being weak. Joe honestly believes that a person that doesn't stand up for themselves is pathetic and is just making excuses. Joe when outside of work or studies likes to have fun and goof off. Despite all appearances however, he is actually intelligent and knowledgeable about various topics, as well as talented and skilled in numerous daily tasks such as cooking; those close to him dubbed him as a true 'Renaissance Man' - a master of multiple things. 
This is not quite true though: Everything he does is done out of a desperate need to avoid going back to his former lifestyle. It has made him reckless, cynical, and prone to self-destructive actions. Finally, the thing that can be considered a true weakness is his inability to trust a woman under any circumstance - no matter the consequence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
He was born as the son of an aspiring boxer and his High school sweetheart. Named after the greatest boxers the world as ever seen, his father hoped to raise him and create a great boxer out of him. He only got to do half of that. His father died just before he could sign a deal for his first Title Fight due to a car crash. At the time, Joe was 8 years old. His mother, 24 at the time, who had taken care of him up until that point went into depression, before leaving him with his neighbors and disappearing. He resented her ever since.

Two years passed, and his life was living hell. His neighbors wife hated him greatly and saw him only as an extra burden. She repeatedly beat him and constantly drove him out of the house. The only reason she didn't kick him out completely was because her husband owed a debt of gratitude to his father, and actually liked him. Still, there was a limit to how much a person could endure. One day, he snapped and just . . . knocked her out. All it took was one hit and a ten year old boy knocked out a fully grown adult. Joe had definitely inherited his fathers genes. Still, out of fear or retribution, he ran out of the house and hid in a nearby park. 

The park, incidentally, was the training ground of a particular gym owner, who specialized in boxing. Like a moment of true destiny, the man found Joe and in an awkward attempt to snap him out of his depression, began an impromptu boxing session. Joe loved every minute of it. The man, Terry Finkles, was so impressed with him that he invited him to practice at his gym for free. He accepted. As soon as he got back home, he told his aunt and uncle about his meeting with Terry, and announced his intent to become the worlds best boxer. His neighbor was glad to see his father in him, and his wife was glad just to have him out more. 

Joe took odd jobs once he was fifteen to earn money for himself, and practiced constantly in the gym. Another event occurred, however, and all the money he had earned was stolen by a girl that pretended to be in love with him, and indirectly ruined his reputation in the gym. His distrust towards women solidified even more. The only person that he had left to trust was himself and Terry, he decided. 

Currently, he is practicing for his debut on the international boxing stage.

Age: 19

Gender: Male 

Personality: 
“Never judge a books by its cover” is a well-applied saying but, with Felyse, he is exactly as he appears. Whimsical and overly-eccentric, he is a kid at heart and impulsive to boot. He is, without a doubt, a teen with too few marbles and an insatiable curiosity for places considered off limits [WARNING: Reverse psychology might just backfire. Maybe. Maybe not]. With an easy-going attitude, he tackles any situation with an optimistic view and a bundle of playful insights. However, this positive attitude can easily be a double-edged sword as he can be seen as naïve, innocent, or too idealistic. He refuses to think things through or even the consequences of his actions. As a rule he follows, he shall have no regrets. He shall call out “YOLO.”   

Background: 
Felyse was a free spirit, having a rather lax upbringing in a simple home. He was mostly left to his own device ever since his parents took one look at their recently-turned-goth daughter, then at their son's purple bunny-eared hat, and went “NOPE, can’t handle this.” His parents encourage exploration and free will, and expected nothing out of him. Chained down with neither expectations nor dreams, he is struck with the ideal of finding passion and happiness. The second child to a relatively normal family, Felyse like to consider himself a “jack-of-all-trade.” Majoring in the undecided, Felyse tried his hands at various skills, only to – all too often – lose interest in any skill he pursues after a few weeks. Cooking, sports, dancing, drama – he had been through it all as he stride through clubs like some home invader exploring for prospective wealth; although, he occasionally revisit these skills at a later date, leading to a very varied shallow skill set. 

It wasn’t long before he finally dipped his hands in gambling, easily drawn into the idea of earning thousands of dollars within a single game and losing the clothes on your back with a simple toss of a coin. Eventually, as time went by, he took it as a source of entertainment, losing and winning on a whim with a smile on his face. His earnings were never steady; his wallet filled with either a wad of cash for a day or a piece of lint for a whole month since he never takes gambling seriously – or have the slightest idea of budgeting.

He was more than happy to act as a guinea pig for the good professor when Rohrbach approached him with Project Olympia. Who’s gonna turn down the chance of free drugs, getting paid along the way? 

That green lime-looking pill is looking rather tempting…

Chosen Pill Color: Lime green

Other: Felyse is a pretty dated guy, using words that are equally as dated like “bodacious” or “hodgepodge.” He has an admiration for cinema and movies from all decades. Watching black-and-white films are his greatest pleasure as well as wearing hats of various designs. He’s never seen without some form of headgear.</div>"

""Thank you, come again!"" Veronica said happily as the customer left. She glanced around her shop, keeping an eye on everything. It was a modest place, room enough for a few tables and a comfortable sitting area with a circle of couches, but not much else. The main room was brightly lit though, and decorated with warm colors. She stood behind the small glass top counter in front of the door to the back room, which held the kitchen and storage area, and it was a little cramped. She glanced at the clock, noticing that it was just fifteen minutes to closing. She walked out from the counter to start cleaning up.

""I'm sorry,"" She said to a woman she assumed went to the same college as her, ""I'm closing soon, so I'm going to have to ask you to start wrapping up."" As the girl nodded, Vee pulled a cleaning rag from the pocket of her apron and started wiping down the other table, humming softly as she worked. Nothing relaxed her more than taking care of her shop, and it was especially important because her friends were on their way. She walked over to the sitting area to make sure there wasn't any garbage there, then dragged a low, circular table into the middle of the couches so they would have somewhere to put their drinks and plates.

""Hmmm..."" she hummed absently, looking at the table. Suddenly struck by inspiration, she turned and grabbed a flower pot off one of the wall shelves and put it in the middle, rotating it slightly so the flower was facing the window.

""Perfect.""</div>"

She was rereading the Professor's email, hoping she had it right and wasn't coming too late or early. She'd just let her room at the Lab, the Professor nowhere to be seen. She'd even left her TV on. She didn't really mean to but it just... sort of happened. And by the time she remember, it was too late to go back. She was far too lazy for that. 

She put her phone back in her hoodie pocket and pulled out a cig and lit it, puffing as she walked down the street toward the cafe. She spotted Vee cleaning up the place, the closed sign already up. 

Chuckling to herself, she threw her cigarette into the nearby ash-tray trashcan and walked up to the door. Instead of knocking, Penelope pushed her face up to the glass and let out a heavy breath, a goofy grin on her face. Pulling up a hand, she slapped it against the glass and pulled it down, making an aweful screeching noise.</div>"

Sighing, she thought about waiting until the girl decided to try actually opening the door, but decided she would probably just keep hitting the glass instead, so walked over and pushed it open.

""The door's still unlocked you know."" She said in mock frustration, ""I can't actually lock it from the inside and still leave, it's the only way out."" She stepped aside and let the older girl in. ""If anyone else forgets how to open doors, would you be so kind as to let them in?"" She asked, making her way back behind the counter and entering the back room.</div>"

He noted this as he skated down the street, passing by Farview Hall - his previous place of rest. After the little...'power fiasco', Orion had decided to move into the lab, for quite a few reasons. For one, he could practice his powers, in peace, there without anyone bothering him or pissing themselves. Secondly, the professor didn't bother him, and he didn't bother the professor. It was a nice deal. Thirdly, there was quite a few rooms in the labs, one room in particular being rather interesting; it was an exercise room, and after he dusted it out, it turned out to be rather useful and efficient. He could stretch his telekinetic powers there as well as train his physical form. Good in every way. However, he had spent the previous night at a...'friend that was also a girl's' place deeper into the campus, which is why he had to haul all of his ass down to the Cafe to meet with the others.

As he skidded along the street on his black and white skateboard, sparks flying as the young man expertly hit an olly over a rolling trashcan, Orion quickly spared a glance around. No one was around. Great. A smirk twitched onto his face, and with a mental twitch, Orion was literally flying through the air, a grin on his face as he did a nimble backflip through the air, his skateboard staying perfectly in-line with his feet. He landed lightly back on the board, his telekinesis keeping the skatting instrument flying through the air as he quickly made it to the entrance of the cafe. Before anyone could notice, Orion landed on the ground, behind some bushes, with a minor crash that broke his board in half.

""Eh, whatever."" He whispered, still under the adrenaline rush from his minor power-flight. Taming his long, spiky, and rather feathery hair, Orion dusted dirt off of his jeans and converse before quietly going around to the front of the cafe, and opening the door. The bell alerted others of his entrance, and Orion ducked into the small shop, crystal blue eyes gazing around calmly. The young man wore his usual college clothing; slim jeans, black and white Chuck Taylor sneakers, and an untucked white dress-shirt with a black, unbuttoned blazer over it. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, showing the black tattoo of a crow stretching along his right forearm.

""Hey."" Orion greeted, mostly out of necessity, the door closing behind him, almost subconsciously. It was a training technique him and the scientist professor man worked out a few days ago. If he affected things telekinetically, without even thinking or consciously doing it, his powers would grow stronger. Like a muscle.</div>"

<font color=""crimson"">""Why do I have to do that? I just wanna sit...""</font> Penelope whined, leaning back with her hands behind her neck. <font color=""crimson"">""By the way, do you know where the Professor is? He wasn't at the lab earlier...""</font> She asked, closing her eyes to rest.

It wasn't like she was really worried, it was more like she was just making conversation. She half opened one eye when she heard the bell of the door opening and closing as Orion walked in and said hey. <font color=""crimson"">""Hey, loser. 'Sup?""</font> Penelope asked, closing her eyes again, relaxing once again.

Then again, if she needed to open the door, she'd probably just use her powers. She had to admit, these powers were both a blessing and a curse. It did NOT help her problem with laziness.</div>"

An extended flash of green and orange ending just as abruptly, thankfully decelerated by a conveniently cushioned surface.

A quick cursory glance or two reveals a twitching body clad in an open green jacket somewhat engulfed at the neck up by a delightfully soft couch. And another to tell that this person must have collided rather clumsily into the now destabilized table. Wrong place at the wrong time, at least, that is what someone would think about the poor flower pot's new location. The poor poor flower pot, just finding a new home, now about to crumble from the impact.

However, as fast as the figure entered is about the time that passes for a reaction. And one would say just in time, for the shaggy orange haired man was suddenly on the floor clutching the delicate pottery.

He makes an amiable nod towards Orion and smiles warmly <font color=""#a187be"">""This one stays between us, yeh?""</font> He lets out a little smirk.</div>"

""...Yeah, alright Gilroy."" He stated in a deadbeat voice, mentally wondering what possessed the other man to make such a potentially disastrous entrance. With a shrug, Orion began heading towards the others, passing by the table and the orange-haired man, and sitting in a seat near Penelope. He was mentally hoping the 'meeting' could start soon, as there was a few things that he wanted to bring up. 

Well, more like one thing, but, eh, either way it goes, it was kind of important. As he waited, Orion propped his head up on a fist, while his other hand - his left one - rested on the table. at least fifty black marbles rose from out of his pocket, rotating through the air, before each of them lined up on the table, in a completely symmetrical line. Orion nudged one, and it suddenly blasted forward like a bullet, zooming past Gilroy's head and nimbly lodging itself into the keyhole of the shop's door. It then blasted out of the hole and back into the line of marbles. 

Orion smirked, and all fifty marbles rose into the air, a few inches above the table, forming into a large middle finger, before they were shifted and formed a crow taking flight. He often did this when he was alone- it helped him better his reflexes and agility with his telekinesis, and it was a nice way to pass time.</div>"

To his question, she shrugged. <font color=""crimson"">""That's Vee's business, not mine.""</font> She explained in matter of fact way. 

Realizing that Orion had ignored her, she turned her head slightly to glare at him. <font color=""crimson"">""Hey! Don't ignore me, loser!""</font> She called out, hitting Orion on the shoulder. It wasn't hard enough to really start anything, but it wasn't a tap either. <font color=""crimson"">""I'm trying to make conversation here, doofus!""</font> She told him, putting a scowl on her face. After a while, she chuckled slightly. <font color=""crimson"">""You should stop playing with your small balls and socialize.""</font> She joked, raising a brow at him.

<font color=""crimson"">""Anyway, 'Sup with you, Ginger?""</font> Penelope asked, turning back to look at Ferghus.</div>"

With a look of astonishment that quickly turned into a smirk he spoke directing himself towards the others, <font color=""#a187be"">""This is a lovely little shop, it'd really be a shame if you had hit the panes, you wouldn't wanna hurt poor old Vee's lively hood now would ya? Ehh, I guess there is no helping it.""</font> 

Ferghus quickly took a seat on the couch that he had been planted head first in earlier and spoke again, this time directed at Penelope <font color=""#a187be"">""Oh you know, guess you could say I've been running circles around yeh smokes, but in all seriousness,'fraid I'm a bit worried about the doc, wasn't even around the labs, and now that I think of it, neither were you Striphe.

The relaxed man finally spotted a glance towards Veronica, clearly he and Orion have been driving each other bananas in the lab, and gave another warm smile, a gesture that he often resorts to.</div>"

The smooth sounds of the Alan Parsons Project filled Emily's ears as she walked down the street. She walked at a relaxed pace but with purpose, eager to chat with her new friends from the Project, as she generally called it. As she listened to the album she had heard so many times before, she considered how the others had reacted to their pills' effects. After she had taken her own maroon pill, there had been no discomfort. All that she had felt was surprise that suddenly she understood more than she had before. Of course, when she discovered the other side effect it was a little different. It's hard to remain calm when you think about wanting food and your TV turns on that instant and flips to the Food Network.

Unfortunately for Emily, all of these thoughts occurred very quickly and no noticeable amount of time had passed. No matter, though; the cafe was just around the corner. Reaching the entrance just as ""Children of the Moon"" concluded, she paused the album from her phone, put her headphones around her neck and entered the Fresh Pot in a way 100% opposite from the Irishman's moments earlier. Opening the door and walking in, she beheld the four that were already there. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""Hey!""</font> she said to everybody/nobody in particular, and sat down at the table with Penelope and Orion after giving a glancing smile to Ferghus on the couch. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""I see nobody's died yet,""</font> she remarked jokingly.</div>"

Found it!”</font> Felyse jumped to his feet, holding his signature red hat between his fingers. Above him was a hole, or to be more accurate, a portal of pure darkness. It hung on the ceiling like some over-grown Christmas ornament. A large variety of shirts, trinkets, and all other items he had horded throughout his life were piled in an organized mess and shoved to the side. Along the way, the bed was placed right under it. He stood beneath the dark abyss, feeling a slight draft drawing towards it, almost like it was urging him to come inside. The hole was juuuuust big enough for his scrawny body to fit right through. Even though the Fresh Pot was just across the street, this portal was here all nice and tight, presenting itself to him. If only it wasn't on the ceiling... All well! Might as well go with it.

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Welp, here goes nothing,""</font> the teen huffed, imagining what the good professor might say if he were to ever find a portal in his room instead of the training area. Despite his gangly weight, a jump or two on the bed gave him enough momentum to grab the edges of the portal and heaved himself through… to only find himself staring at a pair of shoes and hearing voices above his head. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">“Oh…”</font> Felyse stared blankly at his new surroundings. Judging from the warm atmosphere and seeing Orion, Penelope, and Emily who were all gathered at a table, it was pretty much a given that he was at the Fresh Pot. The person closest to him was the ever-so-muscular Ferghus whose feet he was currently staring at. Slowly, his lips slipped into a sheepish grinned as he resisted the urge to scratch his nose. The teen made a move to pull himself up only to find himself unable to do so. Flickering his eyes down to the portal hugging his lower chest told him exactly why. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Pssssst, Ferg!""</font> He called out to the Irishman in a hushed voice, looking rather lax despite having half of his body sticking out from the floor. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Hey, buddy, I like your shoes. They’re clearly well worn. Also, can you pull me outta here? I'm kinda stuck sooooo...”</font>On the other side of the portal, his legs dangled helplessly with no leverage to rely on. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“...I got skittles.”</font></div>"

One of them being riding his awesome motorcycle (which he stole from his cousin about 3 weeks ago) it growled beautifully as he made his way over to the coffee place to meet his super powered peers. He didn't really like any of them, too chirpy and sitcom compared to his normal circles, but he was fascinated by the super powers, his new power <span class=""bb-b"">Clarity</span> made him hunger for knowledge a lot more than he previously did...(which isn't saying a lot for a dropout).

His Chopper Bike came to a screeching stop outside the cafe, there wasn't a real parking space for bikes so he just left the bike dangerously close to the front door, and burst through the door with a slightly annoyed look on his face.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Does this place sell anything other than coffee?</span></font> 

He said to nobody in particular.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">And when I say sell, I mean give me, Alcohol, or a coffee with a little Irish in it.</span></font>

He lazily smirked at Ferguson and snorted

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">No offense Hoolihan, or is it Callahan...O'Grady?</span></font>

He dropped himself quite abruptly in the sofa that Ferguson was sitting in and shuffled so he was somewhat comfortable sitting next to him, without an invitation to, he scanned the room really quick and acknowledged some of the other super powered types in the room, he'd met them all once before. Introducing himself with a nod and little else. He looked Orion up and down with a measure of disrespect, he didn't really like Orion, he wasn't sure why, he just didn't. His eyes flew past Penelope and Veronica who he was fairly indifferent to, and focused on Emily. He couldnt take his eyes off her for at least a good 15 seconds, and flashed her his rouge-ish smirk.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Yo, Em you see my new bike? I built it from scratch, with my own engineering smarts before that pill. After this little hipster meeting let me know if you need a ride back, I promise you I wont go too fast...unless you want me to hahaha.</span></font>

Nick readjusted himself on the fairly comfortable sofa next to Ferguson and let out a rather loud fart, which was amplified by the leather on the seat, and pulled out a pack of smokes.</div>"

<font color=""#a187be"">""But if it isn't too much trouble Vee, I could go for a nice hot pot of black.""</font> Relinquishing another typical grin he scanned the room again and finally to the boy dangling below him.

And yeh can't help but freak me out all the time can yeh?""</font> Finally he lowered himself to the cafe floor in order to grasp the younger boy's arm. <font color=""#a187be"">""Yeh know I don't like candy.""</font> He spoke so that only the boy half-way intersected by the floor could hear him. 

As if to no one in particular Ferghus spoke again, reiterating his statement about the professor, <font color=""#a187be"">""Now that more of us are here, the doc hasn't been around lately, which strikes me as odd. Now I'm not such the type to worry, but I've never seen 'im leave beyont.""</font> adding with a shrug, <font color=""#a187be"">""Ehh, there's nothing for it.""</font></div>"

""I'll be right there!"" She said, and a few moments later backed out of the door, balancing several plates on her forearms and hands. She walked carefully so as not to drop them, and laid them on the counter before reaching for a fresh pot of coffee. She grabbed several large mugs on her way out from behind the counter and set them down on the table between the couches.

""Here we go,"" She said, pouring the black liquid into each mug. She set each mug in front of someone, crossing the room to give one to Penelope, then returned to the main table with a basket of cream and sugar.

""You know I don't serve alcohol here, Nick. This is a Cafe, not a bar."" She reprimanded, going back for the plates. One by one, she placed a fresh slice of black and blueberry pie in front of everyone.

""There,"" She said smiling. ""I just took it out of the oven, so it's still a bit hot. Let me know what you think.""</div>"

He instantly realized that his ""twenty minute nap"" lasted a lot longer than he expected. Dominic rolled over, put on his glasses, and glanced at the alarm clock that sat upon the squat fridge next to his bed. 5:50. Shit. Not only did he sleep through PolySci, but he guessed he was going to be the last one down at the Fresh Pot. Still he just layed in bed, the events in the recent past playing over again in his mind. A smile slowly spread on his face, he had signed up for a medical trial and received superpowers. It was pretty awesome, and went a lot better than Dominic expected it to. 

After reminiscing for a few moments Dom rose from his bed and freshened up a bit and grabbed his phone and earbuds before heading out the door. Dominic exited the Taggart Complex and immediately set off towards the Fresh Pot. While other's had taken the professor's offer to bunk at the lab, Dominic had insisted on remaining on campus. His deadbeat roomie had finally dropped out, meaning (at least for this semester) he had their double space all to himself. After a short walk he finally arrived at his destination, but looking in the window he saw his hunch of being one of the lasts ones to arrive was correct. Vee was already passing out snacks to Penelope, Orion, Ferghus, Emily, and Felyse. Even Nick had decided to grace the cafe with his presence.

<font color=""orange"">""Heeeeey everybody,""</font> Dominic said as he walked in the door, <font color=""orange"">""Looks like the whole famn damily is almost here!""</font> He made his way over to the couches, and settled into one that wasn't currently occupied by Ferghus and Nick. <font color=""orange"">""Vee, if its not too much trouble could I get set up with some of that coffee you're handing everyone else?""</font></div>"

The reminder was there in the back of her mind during her morning run, through all her classes, through the lunch she barely touched. Amy and Jessica had noticed her quietness angry silence, assumed she was just PMSing and did not try to stir her from her mood. It was probably better that way, there was no way they would understand and heather couldn’t half believe it herself. They parted at three, Heather trying not to appear bothered by her friends’ departure to the training annex Instead, she started toward apartment 214 to wait out the remainder of her time until the big meeting. 

	There was much Heather was not looking forward at this meeting, it seems unlike the rest of the gang, Heather was not very thrilled to have this “gift” forced  on her. It was the sensation that alerted Heather to something being wrong the night after she took the little red pill. There was a sensation in her chest, like a powerful pulsing. Then the currents had spread through her body, it felt like hot insects crawling under her skin. In a panic, Heather had tried to call someone for help. The moment her hand grasped her white and gold smartphone, it was drained of all its battery life and it felt as if Heather had fed the pulsing in her chest. Then an explosion of electricity appeared from her finger tips, shattering glass across the room and making the air heavy with the energy.

	 The good doctor tried to explain to Heather what she became, and what he expected of her but the moment he told Heather he would not change her back; she gave in to her temper and would hear nothing more of his experiment. It didn’t help that this crazy doctor kept dropping words like “Fate” and “hero” and that he expected Heather to fight crime. She told Doc to “fuck off” and stormed out of the lab. That was days ago.  Heather reflected back on that day and her outburst as she walked toward “The Fresh Pot.” She was a little ashamed to fly off the handle like she did, but Heather still felt so unsure about this new power. She hadn’t used it since it surfaced, going to great lengths to avoid anything that would give her a charge. Heather had ignored all of  Rohrbach’s calls and emails for a number of reasons. But when Heather chanced the safety of her laptop and saw email about the meeting, she knew she had to attend. 

	Heather walked into the Fresh Pot, sunglasses still over her eyes, and notices she is one of the last to arrive. “Hello everyone.” Heather fixes the crowd with a polite smile, which was an improvement compared to her behavior at the last meeting. She found a seat at a table on the edge of the group, still unsure where she fit or if she was welcome. They all seem so over the moon about this project, Heather couldn’t see why. She felt the sensation under her skin again, but Heather clasp her hands together and ignored it.</div>"

Ferg's reply, Emily's entrance and remark, Felyse's more interesting entrance, Nick's sleezebag side showing, Ferg's question about Rohrbach, Vee's coffee and pie, Dominic's entrance, and Heather's rather surprisingly nice greeting.

<font color=""crimson"">""I'm not sure where the professor is, Ferg, or what sort of plot he's scheming now.""</font> She replied, sipping the coffee placed before her between breaths. <font color=""crimson"">""Oh, and hey everyone. Heather, you're looking much better today. Now that you're inside, wanna show us those pretty eyes and take off your sunglasses? It's kinda rude, yanno.""</font> She spoke, turning to face the blonde. She, despite her tone, had a slight smile on her face.

Chuckling to herself, she sat back and picked up her fork, digging into the pie. She pulled the delicious hunk of sugar to her mouth and chomped down, savoring the sweet taste. As always, Vee was going to make her fat.

<font color=""crimson"">""Vee, you're ganna ma'e me fath.""</font> Penelope told her friend, though she'd never admit it, with a mouth full of food. That was why she couldn't stay around Vee too long, she'd gain ten pounds within the first week of living with someone like her. She preferred living at the lab with the others, keeping her stomach full with ramen and other typical college type foods.

The warmth from the mug almost brought a smile out of the college student, but with surprisingly a large amount of self-control, he barely managed to not smile for 'no reason', opting instead to bring his cup up and take a nice, long, and quiet sip of the hot, amber liquid. As the conversation began to be sent into the direction of the missing professor, Orion finally glanced up, his sapphire blue eyes rather lazy and half-lidded.

""No idea. I wasn't at the lab last night, so...maybe he got a date?"" It was a random guess, but the professor was a lonely little man, so who knew? Maybe he did get a date, and had spent the night at his date's house. It wouldn't surprise him, honestly. Some girls liked the nervous, old, and geeky type. Or not... ""Maybe not. Anyone have his phone-number?"" Orion finally flicked a wrist, and all of the marbles formed a sort of marching line, falling into his left hand, where he quickly pocketed the objects.</div>"

Aren’t you going to be a hero? How could you be so shaken by little ol’ me?”</font> Felyse lightly teased, raising an eyebrow in smug mischief as Ferghus grabbed him by the arm. In return, the young man latched onto the Irish man’s upper arm and began to pull. One, two, and three – Voila! A soft, almost cartoonish, pop could be heard as Felyse was hauled right outta there. Once the messily tied laces of his boots were released from imprisonment, the portal quickly melted away only to be replaced by the wooden flooring that had been there originally. No scars, no scratches - it was almost like a man-sized hole had never been there in the first place. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">“Thanks, bud. If candy is a no-go, then I guess I owe you something else,”</font> Felyse threw his arms up into the air and stretched, his fists clenched. He took the red-head man’s last statement as a challenge. Chuckling under his breath, he gave the older man a friendly slap on the back, hopping away. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“But, I can’t give up on converting you to the dandy land of candy just yet~.”</font> He softly sang under his breath. 

Upon looking at the occupants of the room as well as the newly arrived, he flashed them a warm smile and a wave as gestures of acknowledgement. He hopped right over the table where Heather, Emily, Orion, and Penelope was at, and took a seat right next to Heather. It wouldn’t do to sit on the couches since Nick made a point of making it his own territory with his gastrointestinal tract. Besides, slices of black and blueberry pie were already situated quite nicely on the table by the courtesy of Vee. It was calling his name. 

Sitting back against the chair, the young man tilted his head toward Penelope, a silver spoon dangling from his mouth. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Nope. Didn’t see him at all, neither hair nor nail. He didn't became an old man hermit in that lab again, did he?”</font> Felyse asked nonchalantly, scooping up a large piece of his berry desert with his spoon. He shoved the whole thing into his mouth and chewed in contemplation… only to start piling in more of the sugary substances by the spoonful. Juicy sweetness flowed through his veins. He quickly shook his head at Orion's question. Usually it was the good professor who does the contacting, not the other way around. Besides, the scientist was only a few meters away if they ever needed something, often found holed up in his laboratory of doom.</div>"

And also rather unfortunately for Emily, that someone was not someone she had the slightest interest in even getting too close to - a fact made poignant by his contributions from both sides of his body. Fortunately, they came from his perch on the couch and not right next to her. Still, she wasn't the type to be rude.

<font color=""deepskyblue"">""It took me 4 minutes and 52 seconds to walk here,""</font> she replied, having listened to ""Children of the Moon"" so many times that she knew its exact length. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""I think I'm ok,""</font> she finished, giving him a small polite smile.

Turning to listen to the conversation about the professor's whereabouts, she replied to Orion's question about his phone number.

<font color=""deepskyblue"">""I could find it,""</font> she offered. She was used to the intelligence thing but not quite used to the technology manipulation thing yet, but she still knew that it wouldn't be very hard to track down the professor's number in a matter of seconds via her phone.</div>"

And with a smirk directed toward Felyse he spoke, 

<font color=""#a187be"">""Yeah, well maybe yeh should try and improve yer aim a bit? No harm done though, I guess we're all learning still.""</font> Glancing around at all the new arrivals made the Irishman feel more at ease. Rohrbach wouldn't keep them all waiting in the cafe all night, would he? Maybe it was a social experiment, to see how we would all get along? Or maybe Ferghus was just over looking it. 

The somewhat distracted man shot a quick smile toward Emily<font color=""#a187be"">""It would be worth a shot, yeah bird?""</font> He responded quick to the idea that she could locate the number, or at the very least attempt to. Ferghus mind filled with memories of attempted phone calls to the professor before, not a single one found their way to his ears.

Adjusting his green jacket and loose-fitting black tie, it was a style he loved, he head toward the pot to pour himself a nice steaming cup of black. Ferghus felt rather ashamed that he hadn't known so much about most of the other participants that hadn't decided to stay in the labs. So he made an effort to walk around chatting about menial things, gauging their personalities. 

The Irishman finally moseyed on back to the couch that he had earlier planted himself within and sat next to the rather snide looking Nick. Glancing around the cafe and its bustle Ferghus fixed his attention on the marching orbs that Orion was controlling before placing them back within a pocket. He had an idea for a little game to pass the time. In an obviously joking manner Ferghus spoke intended at Orion, 

<font color=""#a187be"">""Hey porcupine head! Lets see if you can blast those marbles quicker than I can catch 'em. Oh and try and aim for the couch, don't wanna break nothing ya know?""</font> Sure he was playing around, but deep down Ferghus wanted to test his ability, besides he and Orion had been going at it ever since they had first awakened their powers.</div>"

Vee admonished, coming back into the room with more pie and coffee for the late arrivals. Sighing, she pulled the apron from around her neck and tossed it lazily back onto the counter, collapsing onto on of the free couches. She had forgotten to pour herself a cup of coffee, and she didn't feel like getting back up for one, so she settled for complaining.

""I'm tired. I'm sure the professor will be here though, guys, we just have to be patient."" She rolled to the side and just before she was laying completely down she shifted to her favorite form: a sleek black jaguar. A deep purr rumbled from her throat as she laid across the couch, her head resting on the arm. She continued purring until her far more sensitive animal nose picked up what her human nose had missed under the smells of coffee and sweets, and her purr turned into a a growl as she buried her nose in the cushion.</div>"

I wish he'd talk to us a bit more...""</font> She added. 

Penelope turned to look at Emily, hearing her offer. Shaking her head, she replied, <font color=""crimson"">""Nah, I think he'd just be annoyed by it. Better just to wait. I was just curious.""</font>

She chuckled as she heard Ferghus call out to Orion and then Vee's addition. She lifted her arm, letting her hand snake through the obstacles between her and Vee and gave the black cat a few light pats. <font color=""crimson"">""Good kitty.""</font> She teased, laughing.

<font color=""crimson"">""Anyone taking Richer this semester?""</font> Penelope asked absentmindedly while petting Vee. <font color=""crimson"">""He was being super annoying in class today.

Sitting back in his chair and mentally going over the things that have been said; mostly about the professor, the black-haired young man nodded and shrugged, all at the same time. Because he could do that. ""I have a bunch of no-name teachers. It should be smooth sailing from here."" His voice was as calm as ever, even as he ignored Vee's warnings and took out around twenty marbles. Rolling them onto the table, Orion tilted his head slightly, narrowing his crystal blue eyes. His voice was rather distracted as he talked. ""Just slap him with an elongated boob. That'll show him."" He flicked his finger, and smirked as five of the marbles suddenly blasted towards Felyse, only a little slower than a bullet. Orion leaned back and rose one finger, and five more marbles circulated the digit. With only a push of the mind, one more blasted forward, a bit faster than the other five. He trusted the other man's agility and reflexes, however. If he got hit? Well...that was on him. 

It's what he would've deserved for interrupting Orion's sleeping time...every....fucking...night at the lab.

Orion's face broke out into a rather large, evil grin that only happened when he was thinking evil thoughts.</div>"

In Ferghus's eyes time had slowed, but these were certainly still fast moving projectiles, this was a test, one with consequences. He couldn't let a single one of these telekineticly powered marbles bean the much flimsier Felyse. With a hop off of the comfy cushion Ferghus sprung into action. 

Placing himself in between the unsuspecting target and his antagonizer. The Irishman, with the aid of his enhanced agility and reflexes, extended his hands in the direction of the incoming projectiles near the speed of a bullet train. Feeling the hefty impact that such small balls of glass can achieve is astonishing. Within a moment five of these orbs were in between the fingers extending from Ferghus's left hand. 

<font color=""#a187be"">""Come on Striphe, I could do that one with my eyes closed!""</font> He preemptively turns to walk away when he barely notices Orion's face light up with mischief. Another orb, this one faster than the rest. Such little time, with as much precision as he could Ferghus aligned himself in a way, a shield of sorts for Felyse. The marble flung at high speed glanced across the Irishman's angled shoulder. The impact didn't sound too pretty, a loud smack silenced the cafe for a split moment. Followed by the mocking sound of a marble rolling across wooden boards, and who could forget Orion's half-chuckle. 

<font color=""#a187be"">""Ballsch! That'll leave a mark!""</font> Ferghus exclaimed, breaking the silence, and dropped to his knees and clutched the scene of the impact. 

He faced Orion from the cafe floor and grinned, <font color=""#a187be"">""Looks like I win. Sure yeh banjaxed me arm, but I guess I caught 'em all.""</font> Ferghus let out a forced laugh, fraught with obvious pain. Grabbing the last marble, still rolling about, he rose and returned them to his sadistic partner. Finally he sat down again in the comfy couch beside Nick hoping that no one was staring at him.

<font color=""#a187be"">""Sorry there Vee, Striphe's a pisser yeh know?""</font> He flashed a warm smile and returned to sulking in his pain. <font color=""#a187be"">""Oh""</font> He spoke in a hushed tone, <font color=""#a187be"">""Have an icepack?""</font> still staring at the somewhat frustrated kitty cat.</div>"

In an instant, a black blur launched itself from the couch, pushing it backwards a foot, and before it impacted Orion shifted into a large brown hawk. The effect of the transformation was ruined, however, when Vee realized she didn't know how to fly, and instead of landing on the boy's shoulder as she had intended, she fell to the floor and skidded to a halt. She lay there a moment, stunned, before turning back into a human.

""ooooh, ow."" She moaned, trying to push herself off the floor and just falling over instead. ""mmmm. I don't feel so good."" She just continued laying still until Ferghus asked for an ice pack. ""Yeah, I'll go find one, and maybe some asprin too..."" She pushed herself up a bit and half crawled, half dragged herself toward the counter.</div>"

He had a big fight coming up in a few months and his training had turned from hard to hell. He flopped down on the nearest couch and sighed deeply. He took a peak at all the others experimenting (playing?) with their powers and snorted; he had barely even used his. He'd experimented some, but in the end found it useless for his daily life, even when used in secret.

""Say, does anyone know where the good Prof is? I've got a few questions for him,"" said Ray, looking around and not seeing the professor. The gruff man knew why they were given these powers, but there was still information that he needed before he could fully commit to this scheme. He didn't know about the others here (heck, he disliked a lot of them on first sight, especially the girls, and <span class=""bb-i"">especially</span> Penelope and that brat Emily) but he wasn't going in blind.</div>"

The pie before him was all too enticing. Just as he was about to pile on more into his mouth, a giant mass of muscle suddenly knocked into his chair.  In his face was a very familiar hand holding a few marbles that had almost practically appeared out of nowhere.  <font color=""#8dc73f"">“What--?”</font> the young man managed to startle out until Ferghus knocked against his seat once again to act as a human meat shield.  

The impact was so hard that his chair started to tilt so far to the side until he saw nothing but the ceiling.  The sensation of falling brushed against his nerves. Quickly, in stunned daze, he tried to grasp the edge of the table only for his hands to slip. With adrenaline running through his veins, a draft could be felt from beneath as his chair tumbled into the portal that had materialized suddenly. As quickly as it had appeared, the portal was gone before he could get dragged into it as well – only for the hole to reappear behind Orion with that said seat tumbling out and hit the back of the black-haired man’s chair. Staring at the scene before him, Felyse had a lot to take in at once. Just one look at the injured Ferghus, the smirking Orion, and the pitifully crawling Vee was enough to understand the jest of it. The teen threw Orion a look of disappointment that clearly expressed his respect for the older man went down a few notches. His gaze soon turned away to matters of more importance.

<font color=""#8dc73f"">“Well, that was rather reckless, Ferg.”</font> Felyse huffed, nonchalantly brushing off any dust from his clothes. Although he might look annoyed, a hint of concern underlined his words. He sighed and shook his head. The wrinkle between his eyebrows disappeared as he stared off into the distance. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I might not be the most ideal couch for these games, but I could’ve handled it.”</font>

Turning his gaze to the owner of the cafe, Felyse crawled after to Vee. Being the one who didn’t overexert himself, he managed to catch up to her within seconds. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Veeeeee, go sit on the couch. Gimme your arm.”</font> He huffed and moved to his feet, tugging at the sleeves of her shirt while offering his shoulder. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“I’ll get the stuff. Just tell me where it’s at.”</font></div>"

His power's kicked in, without even attempting to, he perfectly understood the fine art of catching, angles, trajectory, falling speed, it was all pouring into his head like an adult magazine. 

To demonstrate his new skill he grabbed his slice of pie, and tossed it in the air, standing on the couch he positioned himself perfectly and SNAP, MUNCH he caught it in his mouth, after wiping of his face, he lit up a cig, and blew the smoke in Orion's face as more students of the project arrived. He took  a small sip of his non-alcoholic coffee and spat it on the floor next to him.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Goddamnit Vee!, this coffee is too hot, if you're gonna serve me a virgin drink at least let it cool down first, shit.</span></font>
He then slumped back down and put out his cigarette in the still scalding coffee cup. Scowling at nobody in particular he started to whine.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">And speaking of virgins, where in the crap is that prof.lab rat?, I'm getting bored already, Id rather be home solidifying my place on the 'Call of Glory' online leaderboards.

He turned towards Emily, re-igniting his sleazy smile.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">As for me, I don't even waste my time with dates, I prefer to get straight to the point...</span></font>

His eyes wondered over Emily's body until Ray the boxer walked in, he had a heavy step to his muscular weight, and it caught Nick's attention, he was fascinated by fighting disciplines, and could tell just by looking at this man that he knew how to fight. Ray grumbled something about looking for the Prof and Nick approached him, smirking devilishly.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Yo, Punchy, hit me in the face, don't knock my head off but pop me with a stiff jab, come on just do it, don't be a pussy, it'll kill time.</span></font>

If it came to annoying people, this guy, Nick, he recalled, got on his nerves real fast; he was rude, an asshole, a punk, and an asshole all in one. Just from his face you could tell he was nothing but trouble. If he was asking for something like hitting him, that meant he had something planned. Fine then, he'd play his game, but not by his rules.

""If you want it, you got it,"" he said. Slipping into his 16oz gloves, Ray decided to test the waters and throw a heavy jab on the man's face.</div>"

Finn Rohrbach stood with a puzzled look on his face. In front of him, a whiteboard covered with complex calculations and data. He tilted his head slightly, for the umpteenth time this evening, and furrowed his brow. A curious hand rose to stroke the stubble on his chin, a move that he said made him feel more... scientific. In reality, it just sort of made him look... odd.

One of the science majors and her professor, Dr. Stanton, stood behind him, passing confused glances to one another.

<font color=""cyan"">""Ah-ha! I've got it!""</font> He exclaimed, only trying to further his ridiculous stereotyping. The two behind him, the short stumpy older gentleman, and the tall and lanky science nerd beside him, both gave him startled looks, even more confused by his actions. All they'd wanted was a second opinion on their research...

For the next hour or so, Rohrbach spent his time explaining the fallacies in their analysis of the results and their error in the experiment, completely dissolving all of their previous hard work. The man, Dr. Stanton, gave Rohrbach an unamused look before politely asking the man to leave so that he and his students, half of the class was still there, could continue their lesson. 

Rohrbach turned to look at the rest of the students who had decided to stay through his long dialogue. <font color=""cyan"">""O-Oh! Well, hello there!""</font> He greeted them, a goofy grin on his face. <font color=""cyan"">""I suppose I must have taken up quite a bit of your time, I apologize.""</font> He told them, looking at his watch to see how long he'd been there.

<span class=""bb-b"">6:07 PM</span>

...

...

Before the students even had time to react, Rohrbach was racing down the hallways, his lab coat fluttering furiously behind him. The students he passed by could only catch a glimpse at the man's face, shock registering on their own. For... it was a face not many got to see. For such a laid back individual who worked so closely with the school, the students had hardly ever seen him so... fierce. Or at least, those that had tried very hard to forget about it. 

Making up for lost time, Rohrbach, once on the first floor, took the first open window he could find and jumped, avoiding the unlucky circumstance of his coat getting caught. He raced from Brumley Center across campus and by the time he'd even gotten close to Vee's place, he was out of breath and practically dying. For anyone looking on, he must have looked like a creepy old man, zombified. 

<font color=""gray"">""Oh no, Rohrbach's really gone crazy now!""</font> He heard girls gossip to one another, trying their best to avoid him. With heavy breaths, he dragged himself toward the Fresh Pot and laid a heavy hand down on the handle. 

Pulling it open, he stumbled inside, and looked around, his breaths still very heavy and labored. <font color=""cyan"">""Ah... I see... you all... made... it.""</font> He breathed before stumbling his way over to the nearest empty table and collapsing into a chair. <font color=""cyan"">""How... have all of your days been?""</font> He asked, putting a rather pathetic smile on his face. <font color=""cyan"">""I'm... not late am I?""</font> He asked, feigning ignorance.</div>"
1692,Project Olympia,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75936-project-olympia,"['Large Group', 'Modern', 'Casual', 'School', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-02 03:33:00,Bleu Chess,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">After dumping Vee onto the nearest empty couch, Felyse followed the young woman’s instructions and made his way to the freezer and then to the first aid kit. While doing so, the good professor Rohrbach was dragging himself through the door and onto the nearest table. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">“Quite dandy, professor. Like a candy in the fall,”</font> Felyse answered with a thoughtful yet distant expression. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Who held you captive while you missed out on all the pie?""</font> He tilted his head slightly to the side and – for no apparent reason – lightly tapped the top of the professor’s head with a slender finger while he walked pass.  Although the professor had the looks of a ragamuffin with his lab coat in all disarray, such image wasn’t a touch out of place. Ever since the teen had moved into the lab, he would see that man in such a state more often than twice a week especially if the professor had been concocting something in the lab all night. Maybe a few bags of skittles would help. 

Ignoring the manly bonding taking place between Nick and the newcomer Ray, Felyse waltzed over to Vee and handed her some aspirin. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Here you go, spud. Incoming!”</font> Felyse did the same with Ferghus, tossing the Irish man the bag of frozen peas and a couple pills of aspirin. He then sat on the arm of the couch whose only other occupant was Dominic, and waited patiently - which was just spacing out.</div>"

Struggling to catch the freezing bag of peas due to his momentary distraction of thought, the wounded Irishman glanced toward the detached boy and smiled, Felyse was odd, yet Ferghus enjoyed his company in an almost curious sort of way.

He placed the cool vegie pack upon the point of impact soothing the pain through a the sleeve of his jacket. A cursory look at the marble inflicted wound was all it took to realize that this was going to be a right nasty bruise in the morning. Only moderately discheveled his attention was set upon the exhausted Rohrbach, he spoke in a rather facetious tone,

<font color=""#a187be"">""And just where've yeh been? Hmm Doc?""</font> Without waiting for a response Ferghus adds, <font color=""#a187be"">""Now I'm not meaning to be rude or anything, but yeh were so brief in the message. Why'd you ask us all to meet? Don't tell me our powers are gonna go insane an backfire or something.""</font> Adding in the last part sarcastically. So many questions he had for the professor, so few did he ever receive a direct answer to, rather a drawn out and dodgy explanation of some tangent or another.</div>"

She takes a sip from her mug as he collapses in a chair, enjoying the bitter coffee and the heat it provided. 
“Been pretty peachy Rohrbach,” Heather replies sarcastically with a smile, “I mean, all things considered.” She watches the older man catch his breath, it seem he had been in a huge rush to get here. Heather turns her attention to Ferghus, who had a really good point. Why the hell are any of them here, in such a casual location?  “I agree with Ferghus, everyone here probably has a lot of questions. I for one would like to know what we are doing in your little science experiment and when you will decide to pass out those pretty antidotes.” 

Heather pushes the half empty mug away and leans forward in her chair. “Do we need to run some mazes maybe? Or do you have fun surveys for us all to fill out?” Heather tried not to sound angry as she talked to the doctor, but her mood from the other night was beginning to surface. Until Heather was given a reason not to be angry for being deceived or afraid of what was happening to her, she was going to remain slightly irritated with Rohrbach.</div>"

Ferghus even asked if their powers would backfire. That was a bit of a laugh. No, it probably... wouldn't.... Right? Yeah. Hasn't yet and it's been like... a month. And they were all doing relatively well. Well... With the powers, not all of them had emotional stability just yet. But... Rohrbach figured they'd get used to it eventually, even come to grow an affection for their powers. 

What was that one movie with the nanny? When they didn't want her, she would be there. When they wanted her, she had to go. Rohrbach let out a little huff, chuckling to himself before he replied to them.

<font color=""cyan"">""No, no. No chance of that, Ferghus.""</font> He told him, chuckling slightly. He turned to Felyse who was helping those that, for whatever reason, seem injured. <font color=""cyan"">""Ahh... It was my old mistress, Science. She always has me wrapped around her slender, handsome fingers.""</font> He responded, rather dramatically. 

He then turned to Heather, a look of surprise on his face. <font color=""cyan"">""Nothing of the sort! My, you speak as if I see you all as lab rats.""</font> He began, shaking his head. <font color=""cyan"">""No, my dear. I've explained it all before, haven't I? I hand selected you to help me on my... mission, I suppose you could call it. If you don't want to help, that's fine. But I won't be helping you with your powers.""</font> He explained, his voice growing dark near the end.

<font color=""cyan"">""But... I'm here because I have news for all of you!""</font> He spoke again, his voice suddenly much brighter. He pulled out a rather large tablet from his lab coat pocket and flicked the screen on; on it was a news report. <font color=""cyan"">""I have two cases for you all to go on. Of course, this means that you will have to split into groups of two. I've already handled the list of who will be going with who, but I will let the groups chose which case they would rather take on.""</font> He explained matter-of-factly. One page was about a series of bank robberies that involved a family of robbers, the Pattersons.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">The Pattersons

Two adults males
One adult female
One male minor

Transgressions

Millions of dollars stolen, 5 innocent lives taken. 

The group must find out where they will hit next and taken them down. Do not kill, hand them over to the police.</blockquote>

The other explained the actions of a recent terrorist.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Sam Wenton

Transgressions

16 innocent lives, arson, destruction of public and private property, etc.

Rohrbach lays the tablet out on the table for the group to look at. <font color=""cyan"">""The groups I have decided on are as follows...

That's pretty much it. Oh! And, please start on your missions this week. No slacking off. I won't set a deadline, but I'll be keeping watch. And... let those that aren't here know? Thank you!""</font> He explained further. 

<font color=""cyan"">""If you need help in anyway, you know where to find me. Also, I will leave a piece of paper with my number on it so that you may all contact me as you need to. But please, only use it in cases of emergency.

Orion, when you come back will please take the tablet with you? I'll be counting on you. Goodbye!""</font> He finished as he stood, left a small piece of paper, and walked out of the building, headed back for the lab.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">SMACK!</span>

The impact was less like a jab and more of a force of nature, the punch to the face knocked Nick back at least 3 feet and he found himself spiraling backwards into the table, knocking over most of the coffee but he managed to catch the pie.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Ahh you motherfucker, that was awesome!!</span></font>

Nick could feel his cheek throbbing, his face was stinging but he was ecstatic, he just learned how to box. Nick rose to his feet, and weaved back over to Ray, his lip started to bleed as his smile got wider.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">I hope you enjoyed that punchy, because nobody is gonna get such a clean shot on me ever again...</span></font>

Nick's smile turned into a smirk as he flexed his biceps and winked at Emily.</div>"

""Don't be too sure of that, short stuff. Unless you're willing to take me on?"" he said, half-jokingly. So that was his ability huh? Damn that was disgusting as fuck.

""You gained the experience of a heavyweight boxer. Our specialty? Taking and giving hits. You're several weight classes under me to do that and your physique is shit compared to mine. If you go up against pro's with more experience with me and a better body than I do, you're pilfered knowledge is useless."" To emphasize his point, Ray stood up. Even under the jacket, his body was huge and noticeable. ""Have you honestly not considered that? You may have the knowledge, but not the experience or the tools to use it right."" 

<span class=""bb-i"">Also, that ability of yours pisses me off,</span> he thought. <span class=""bb-i"">That was years worth of practice, sweat and tears, and you just up and grab it? I would beat this sonofabitch down if it weren't for the fact that I'm not allowed to . . .</span> yet.

He turned to the professor. ""And it's good to see you, Prof. Don't mind out little horseplay here. Anyway, we've got a job? I don't see any problems with the groupings, so count me in.""</div>"

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">You should stick to the speedbag, Rocky, you have no idea how the power works do you?</span></font>

Nick assumed his new found boxing stance and started to dip and weave very slowly but fluidly.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Just because we have the same tools, doesn't mean we are going to build the same house, I don't have to fight like a moronic heavyweight and block punches with my face just because you choose to RayRay. After you jabbed me you raised your right hand to parry, and put weight on your back foot to circle away. You have the tools to fight defensively and I'm going to cherry pick the shit I like about your style and mold it to my own sexy advantage, I'm a lot faster then you now Ray and I know exactly how you throw punches, Id LOVE to see you land a second hit on me....</span></font>

Nick then turned to the prof and with a cockeyed glance.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">This low rent Starbucks is starting to bore me, put me in any group and give me any job, I just want to get outta here.</span></font></div>"

""You want me to hit you so badly? All right then!""

Ray had been experimenting with his ability. Manipulating light was real fun, for example, he could reverse how left and right would look like to a person, or completely blind them as well. 

Like what he did to Nick now. 

The moment he was blinded,  he sent a heavy cross towards Nick's gut. 

He felt it was fair; after all, you decide to screw one person with your abilities, you should expect to get screwed back!</div>"

So much for getting the answers they wanted. “Asshole” Heather mutters under her breath with a small frown while she considers going after the professor. She finally decides against chasing the doctor down and focuses  her attention on the others, namely Ray and Nick. The two now seemed to have a full fight in the middle of poor Vee’s coffee shop. It was very annoying, attacking each other like this. Heather would be no closer to getting out of this experiment with these two throwing power punches at every turn. While watching the two, Heather became curious about her own power and decide now was the best time as any to try it out. 


Heather cracks her knuckles and raises her right hand. She could feel the crawling sensation increasing as Heather turn her hand into a gun gesture. She aims her index finger first at Ray who was in the process of punching the now temporally blinded Nick. “BAN” Heather mutters and in one quick motion, lowers her thumb, firing the pretend gun. Her fingertip glows light blue for a quick second before long bolt of electricity explodes from her finger. It hits Ray from behind, with enough force to only startle the man. Before Ray can react, Heather shoots another bolt, striking Nick in the shoulder.  It is Heather’s hope that the surge of energy would have the same effect as cold water thrown on fighting cats, startle the two enough so they will calm the fuck down. 

“If you two jackasses are finish ruining Vee’s place of business with your little fight club, maybe we can decide on the real problem at hand.” Heather gestures toward the tablet left behind by Rohrbach. ""What the hell are we going to do about the real bad guys?""</div>"
1701,Project Olympia,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75936-project-olympia,"['Large Group', 'Modern', 'Casual', 'School', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-03 21:03:00,HylianRose,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Penelope stayed quiet as the others fought and Rohrbach explained everything. Her eyes flitted down to the tablet with the news report on the Pattersons. She stood slowly, now ignoring the going-ons around her. They wanted to ignore her, she could do the same. Sitting down at the table with the tablet, she eyed both cases with a careful glance, weighing her options.

The first case sort of pissed her off. The way they looked, what they did. To be fair, both cases pissed her off. But... The way that guy looked. The terrorist didn't piss her off quite as much as the Patterson guy. The terrorist could probably be handled rather easily with a few blows to the head. The Patterson case seemed like more of a challenge, and just the thing Penelope needed to let off some steam. Throw a few rubber punches, trip some bitches, choke a bastard out. It was more fun for her. If that made her a bad person, she'd just have to live with it.

When Heather spoke up about the matter at hand, she raised her head. <font color=""crimson"">""I vote my group goes with these Patterson creeps. There are more of us in your group to fight the multitude of them. But... You don't have to listen to little ole me. After all, I'm just a little girl, yanno?""</font> She spoke, sarcasm evident in her voice near the end.

<font color=""crimson"">""Besides, something about how this Patterson dude looks pisses me off.""</font> She told them, holding up the picture for them to see. He was an older man with several scars and a rather nasty look on his face; the kind of guy that kills puppies without a second glance if it means more profit for him.

<font color=""crimson"">""What do you guys think?""</font> She asked the others, once again ignoring the fight going on.</div>"

But his arrogance in his new boxing skill made him temporarily ignorant to Ray's superhuman abilities. Just as Nick was about move into position to counter the next punch, his eyes experienced a painful flash as his sight was literally 'turned off' by the Boxer's light powers. 

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Ahh, you cheap meatheaded bastard, you know I would have smacked you about in a fair fight, so you pull this blind shit? wait till I learn how to..OOOFFF!</span></font>

Nick's ranting was cut short by a much more powerful force than the previous jab, Nick couldn't see but from the power and the angle of the impact he quickly deduced it was a right cross, the power was overwhelming not only did the punch knock the wind out of him but he also crumpled to the ground in pain. Then as sort of follow up, him and Ray both got hit with jolts of blue energy which pinned him to the ground in a stunned state, Ray also being stunned allowed his vision to come back has he lost focus on his power. All he could do was look up at Heather and scowl.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Youre...lucky....I cant learn...that...blue energy shit....</span></font></div>"

So there are two groups of us, this is pretty straight forward, makes sense and all that. It allows us to multitask, do more at once, also makes sense. And out of the two cases, this Sam Wenton seemed like a bigger deal. Sure the family had stolen quite a sum of cash and taken some lives as well which is plenty reprehensible, but the terrorist had killed just over triple the amount, he must be one bad man. Ferghus had been ignoring the tough guys as he collected his thoughts, finally he spoke, 

<font color=""#a187be"">""I think we, I mean, group one, should go after this terrorist guy. But we'll need more to go on than his name and crimes. I'm talking last known location, expected places for 'im to hit, I want us to be up this fucker's arse.""</font> Ferghus had stood up at this point, his earlier relaxed demeanor had changed to one of determination. 

<font color=""#a187be"">""Look, we may just be humble students, living our own lives, doing whatever it is to get by. But we have been offered something, something greater than every last one of our penniless lives. We can help people, make a change! Surely that's worth fighting for. I say we work together, cut this in-fighting, each of us can be heroes now.""</font> The Irishman's brow furrowed, he spoke more softly, <font color=""#a187be"">""Or villains.""</font>

Eager to take on this vigilante selflessness, Ferghus stuck out his hand above the table in the center of the cafe. A certain nervousness of his cliche notions caused him to shake, stuttering slightly as he opened his mouth once more,

<font color=""#a187be"">""We make a pack, on this very night, let's give the evil of this world something to look out for. Now who's with me?""</font> It was clear that Ferghus meant business, perhaps he suddenly came to the realization that each and everyone in the cafe tonight could become like the great comic book legends. Such a thought inspired him, gave his life renewed meaning. However, the Irishman was quite unaware of the hardships to come.</div>"

Fortunately, the professor conspicuously arrived to distract her from the couch proceedings. As he began to explain his next objective for them (after vaguely explaining why he was late), Emily glanced over just in time to see Nick get clobbered in the face by the boxer. She couldn't help but both quietly gasp and hold in a chuckle at the result, being sure to turn back to the professor just as the sleezenugget winked at her.

Listening to the professor and growing more agitated at the commotion occurring near her, she was prepared to shut off all power in the cafe. Fortunately, Heather took care of it first. - and Heather's, Penelope's and Ferghus' opinions on it. She had thoroughly analyzed the situation in a matter of seconds thanks to her newfound ""hyperintelligence"", as the professor called it, and was ready to work - not to mention get away from McSleeze. To the outward observer it appeared that she hadn't even looked at the tablet at all, let alone pondered at length.

<font color=""deepskyblue"">""I agree, Penelope,""</font> she said, looking over at the girl and giving a small grin of approval. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""There's no reason the larger group shouldn't go after the larger target. We're all potent, so it doesn't matter who goes where.""</font> She turned her attention to the impassioned Irishman. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""I can find all that,""</font> she replied simply. Watching him continue his speech, she decided to let out some of the inevitable ensuing awkwardness - they were college students, not comic book characters - with her reply. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""Hey, my life isn't penniless!""</font> she replied lightheartedly. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""And neither is Vee's, judging by her nice cafe. But I do agree with you.""</font> She gave him an encouraging smile to try to quell his apparent nervousness.</div>"

He was annoyed at the interruption, but . . .

""You're right, That was childish of me. We have more important things to do,"" he conceded. ""I'll make the pact, but I'm not much of a justice man. I'll help when needed, and do what I have to do, asides that . . . I have my own dreams. I can't abandon them to be a hero.""

He turned to Nick and scowled. ""As for you shithead, watch your attitude. At some point, you're going to get yourself in more trouble than you could possibly ever handle, and like it or not, you're a part of the team, which means we all get dragged in with you.""

Ray clenched his fists threateningly. ""If the time comes that we have to deal with a problem <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> caused, then you can be sure as hell that afterwards I will beat your ass as many times as it takes for you to learn your lesson.""</div>"

She takes a seat next to the girl and motions to see the tablet while Penelope finishes addressing the group. Heather glances at the bank robbing trio, but decides to read over the terrorist instead. .Rohrbach hadn’t provided much in the briefing, just a name and list of his crimes. It didn’t state which organization he was affiliated with or if he was working alone or with a group. The mugshot from a prior crime showed a younger man with a somber expression and very dark eyes. They carried a lifetime of burdens and pain Heather could not yet understand. Heathers fights a cold shudder as she studied the mugshot. Another photo was provided, a candied photo of Wenton, taken moments after some kind of catastrophe. He was walking calmly away among a crowd of chaos, but it was definitely him. The timestamp on the photo was recent, but Wenton look slightly older than the mugshot. She passes the tablet back to Penelope as Emily finishes speaking. 
“So its settled, with Emily’s ability, our team should go after Wenton. How soon do you think you can dig up intel on this guy Em?” 

Heather wasn’t really sure about Ferghus’ pack. It seem like a good way to unite the team of ammeters and misfits, but the pact sill had a feeling of foreboding to it. Suddenly, that fear stirred within Heather, the fear of the unknown and what she was becoming. Instead of acting on this fear, Heather decided to ignore it.  The pact wasn’t realistic, but Heather appreciated the Irishman’s optimism and his accent was kinda cute. He was right for this hero jazz, and Heather might as well give it a shot and play nice with the team. “Sure Ferghus, I’m in on the pact. Just don’t expect me to wear any capes or tights.” Heather teases with a chuckle.</div>"

In doings so, he smoothly jumped over Nick’s prone form, leaning over Penelope’s and Heather’s shoulders to get a good look at the tablet. He let out a low whistle as soon as his gaze landed on the list of crimes this Wenton fella had committed. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Vandalism, arson, murder, assaults…”</font> Felyse raised an eyebrow. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Woah, this guy got too much time on his hands. I could've finished my degree with that much time.""</font> 

He grinned and gave Ferghus a jolly slap on the shoulders. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Look at you, Ferg! You’ll go far in this business,”</font> he grinned cheerfully, ignorant of the unease that some of the amateur heroes and misfits felt about the pact. He nodded toward the group before turning to face the Irish man, elbowing him playfully at his rib.<font color=""#8dc73f"">“I don’t know about going up where the sun doesn't shine, but I’m willing to join the bandwagon. There's nothing more satisfying than eating skittles, being awesome, and letting this scofflaw sit behind bars.”</font>

Hearing Heather’s teasing, he raised an eyebrow and grin. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“Oh? Then how do you feel about masks and codenames? I don’t know about the mask part, but I got plenty of hats to go around. ”</font></div>"

""What? Busting heads, saving lives and putting the scum of society behind bars? Count me in."" She stuck her hand into the pile. ""Would be nice if we could choose who we fought alongside though,"" She muttered, taking a sideways glance at Nick and Orion. ""But whatever, I suppose I'll live. If you guys need some backup though, just give me a ring and I'll drop everything."" She scanned the page on the Pattersons, reading quickly. 

""I dunno Em, it looks like we might need your help tracking down these guys too. What if you stayed in contact with both teams and ran the info, kinda like that one guy in action movies who stays in the van and keeps everyone updated. That way we would all stay on top of the situation, and if one team needed help you could let the other know before it was too late."" She shrugged, sitting back down in a nearby chair. ""Just a thought.""</div>"

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">aww RayRay looks like we are in opposite teams, such a shame, Id love to get a bit more time continue this great bonding session weve had, maybe I'll just have to catch up with you when you ain't expecting it....</span></font>

Nick flipped Ray off, and looked at the tablet with Veronica, he wasn't crazy about the group he landed in, but only because Emily wasn't in it, either way he was just be happy to be finally doing something else that wasnt 'socialising' with the happy bunch in the cafe. upon looking over the Patterson's crimes his face suddenly became serious, he saw the armed robbery offenses and his strong dislike for guns started to emerge.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Veronica, let Emily deal with her own case, we can find this family in our own group, pull up all the news reports of their previous offenses and locations of the crimes, if you can get me in a library, or an online equivalent I can whip up some temporary detective skills and pick up on the trail of this happy family.</span></font>

Nick was no longer smirking, his voice was no longer a boyish sneer, he was dead focused on finding the family, and started downloading E books on criminal behavior patterns and robbery on to his personal tablet. He heard Penolope talk about her dislike for the Patterson head of family, and for the first time felt empathy with another of the groups feelings.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">Penolope, I heard we arent allowed to let them die....</span></font>

Nick's smile returned with an encouraging glint in his eye.

<font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-i"">But I think me and you should, make them wish they were dead.</span></font>

Oh, and... text me what color you want.""</font> Penelope offered to the group, hearing Felyse talk about masks and such.

She was about to agree with Vee when Nick spoke up, telling them to stay on their own case. <font color=""crimson"">""I'm not sure I agree that the two groups can't help each other out if needed, but I do agree that we should focus on our assigned area. If any of you, at all, regardless of groups, needs my help, you have my number already.""</font> She told them, having already given each of them her number. 

A stupid wicked grin crossed Penelope's face as Nick spoke to her directly. <font color=""crimson"">""Oh, trust me.

""If it's not too much trouble dear, could you stay behind until everybody's gone and lock up? I'd do it but I have class starting in twenty minutes and I really gotta run.

Unsure what to do with them, she places them together in a neat stack on the counter for Vee to find later. She was pondering the idea about costumes and so far did not like it. What Heather never understood was why comic book heroes wore such eye sore costumes. Isn’t the point of fighting crime under a alias is to not be noticed? Heather had a couple ideas for a disguise that did not involve spandex. Heather moved a few chairs back into their original place, satisfied with her work and turns her attention to Emily. “Sure, I’m game for a battle plan in the lab. I think I’ll head over there now and explore a bit. Come find me later.” Heather waves and exits the café before anyone could follow.  The mention of the lab had Heather considering that she needed a little more practice before their first manhunt. She also did feel a bit of a thrill knocking Ray and Nick on their ass, though she meant no ill-will toward the two. So, instead of returning home, Heather let herself wander into the lab, and locate a gym or space where she could experiment with her abilities in peace. She happen to locate one near the unused bedrooms and set to work. 

	The first thing she tried was a transfer of energy. Her phone sat in her hand with a dead battery. Taking a breath, Heather pictures the little smartphone coming to life. She feels a tug from that source inside of her chest and she could feel the power traveling down her arm and into her hand. To Heather’s delight, the phone blinks to life and slowly charges. It was tiring though and it reminded Heather of the blood dives she would go to. The feel of the needle sucking away her blood, and the effort was easy on her part but very tiring. She wills the link between herself and the little device to be closed and with some effort it does end. The little charge icon disappears, but her phone now remains alive at 20% “Oh, hell yes.” Heather mutters with a wide grin. She notices the practice dummies resting in the corner of the room, and a new idea comes to her. Setting the phone aside, Heather begins to rub her hands together. She can feel the heat between her palms from the effort and notices the small sparks flying. She pulls hers hand apart and finds the bright blue sparks contained in the gap between her hands. Heather archers her fingers around the source of power, shaping it like clay into a crackling bright orb. With another grin, Heather aims for one of the dummies and releases the pure energy with both hands. The ball of electricity explodes from her hands, soaring faster than Heather could imagine and striking the center of the dummy with a brilliant crackle and bright flash. The dummy stood with a scorched and blacken hole in its center. Heather lets out an excited cheer, and immediately falls to her knees, suddenly weak and exhausted. Heather reminds there, catching her breath and composure. “Ok…..not so power much next time.” She gulps, still satisfied with her new discovery.</div>"

The night went on as the two groups met in the center of the lab, the big open area that Rohrbach usually kept his big machines. It was now empty with the exception of a few couches, tables, computers, and a rather large computer monitor where a game of Halo was paused. The meetings ad all but concluded, some of them wanting to leave, some of them wanting to simply chat and hang around for a bit. 

Penelope sat at one of the tables with a sewing machine, swaths of fabric surrounding her. She was working on an orange outfit for herself as a sort of test so that the others could see what it would look like. It would take her a bit longer before she could show it to anyone yet. She'd made the design and cut out all the parts but she still needed to sew them all together to make the completed piece. 

She let out a shallow sigh and began sewing up the body piece. She was just making a simple blazer that could cover a white button up with khaki bottoms. It was simple and would color code her. The weird part would be the mask. She was thinking of a simple headband with holes for eyes but part of her wanted to make it more elegant than that. She smiled to herself as she thought of the mask in her head. It was orange with black lace covering the main bits and black and orange feathers jutting out from the side. 

It made her happy being able to work on something like this. It let her avoid her school work and the thought of those criminals. What they'd read hadn't made her very happy. According to the police reports they'd managed to get their hands on with Nick's skills, the family was once rather rich but the father and gambled everything away and was now forcing his children and wife to help him get it all back. One of the kids had left the family, wanting to go out on her own. She'd told the police everything, from her father's scandals with his company to her mother's affair with her husband's workers. 

They had a rough idea of where the family was staying from the report and were planning on going after them once the week had ended, on Saturday, two days from now, they would head out and begin their search in the field. For now, Nick and the others were simply doing more research while Penelope made the clothes. 

<font color=""orange"">""Hey, Emily. What sort of style do you like? I could make something that looks like a military uniform.""</font> Penelope asked, chuckling at her offer. For some reason, she couldn't imagine the girl in anything other than a dress. <font color=""orange"">""No, but if there's a specific style you want me to make, just show me a picture and I'll try my best. I'm making a blazer for myself. Simple and hopefully won't make me stick out like a sore thumb.""</font> She explained, speaking to everyone in the room.</div>"

Do mine, too!”</font> Felyse spoke up from his spot on the couch – the one that was in front of the giant computer screen where he watched the other’s playing Halo – and looked up from his bag of ranch Doritos he was once so focused on. Tossing the chips to the side, he crawled his way to the back of the couch, resting his head against the palm of his hands, as he watched Penelope work her magic around the sewing machine.  

<font color=""#8dc73f"">“I want a black hoodie with lime green patterns. Same thing with my mask; although, something that covers my whole head and faceless.”</font> Unconsciously, Felyse combed the strands of hair beneath his chosen hat-of-the-day with a hand.  White with red tips – his hair stood out more than what his envisioned hero outfit ever would be. Like a watermelon snow cone amidst the tundra. There was always the option of dyeing, buuuuut that would be an attack on his individuality… also, his lazy side was opting out. As an extra precaution – and a security blanket – he got a brand new hat all picked out for mission impossible; although, truthfully, the headgear was more for aesthetic effect than anything else.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he watched his teammates going about. He grabbed the bag of chips and munched away. Research he could do, but planning away was a no-go; so he left that task to his more methodical comrades. <font color=""#8dc73f"">“By the way, anyone got any heroic names all planned out?”</font></div>"

Turning to Felyse, she said, <font color=""deepskyblue"">""Being hyperintelligent doesn't mean I'm hyper creative too,""</font> she replied with a chuckle. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""The name is always the hardest part - not even superpowers can change that.""</font>

She nodded to him when he told her what he wanted and stopped what she was doing to write it all down. Black hoodie, lime green patterns... full mask. She nodded her head at her notes and then turned back to her work space to begin working on her own mask.

Penelope lifted a brow at Emily's remarks and chuckled. <font color=""orange"">""Nah, I wasn't really going for flashing. Pretty normal, actually. Sort of like, they could pass for normal outfits only... with a mask to hide our faces. You just can't wear that specific outfit in public...""</font> She explained, trailing off a bit. 

Hearing Emily reply to Felyse, Penelope decided to chime in as well. <font color=""orange"">""I'm with Emily. I have no idea what to call myself. Elasti-Girl? Stretchy Chick? Rubber Lady? I'm... terrible at names. I mean, I can hardly name the characters in my works for school, much less as a nickname for myself.""</font> She replied, shaking her head as she heated plastic with a lighter to try and bend it to the shape of her face. 

<font color=""orange"">""So, yeah. I got nothing. What about you, Portal Boy? Maybe we should call you Chel? What's a feminine version of Chel? Chad?""</font> She offered jokingly.</div>"

She went back to sketching in her notebook. She had a rough outline of a female figure already, with shaded areas that showed she was wearing a skin tight black suit.

Just add Captain or some other nifty title in front of a noun and - voila! - you got something! Captain Elastic sounds fitting, no?

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Ooooh, how about Lady Chimera, Vee?

Her face changed to one of mock repulsion as Felyse gave suggestions. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""An Apple product? Please, spare me,""</font> she replied. Grabbing the extra XBox controller before Felyse could and waving it teasingly in front of his face, she said <font color=""deepskyblue"">""You can play if iDoctor goes away""</font> with a smile indicating she was thoroughly enjoying herself but still serious about the name.

<font color=""deepskyblue"">""I like Chimera though,""</font> she admitted, turning back to the screen holding out the other controller for Felyse to grab while resuming play herself with one hand. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""Without the 'Lady' in front of it, I think it suits Vee nicely.""</font></div>"

She, of course, had written down what the others had asked of her and was busy working on everything. By tomorrow she'd have at least two or three of them done. 

<font color=""orange"">""Hey, I like iDoctor. It's funny even if it doesn't suit you. Then again, I'm terribad at names so the most creative thing I've got is Tech Girl. And Elastigirl can kiss my ass. I'm real, she's not. Not that I wanted to use that name anyway. Though I feel like if I call myself Captain Rubber people will make jokes I don't want them making.""</font> She spoke, snorting at her last statement.

<font color=""orange"">""And I agree with Emily. Chimera is a nice name for ya, Vee. It fits. Wild and crazy beast.""</font> Penelope poked fun at Vee, sticking her tongue out at the friend. She finished up her mask and set it aside to dry before working on Emily's suit. Her plan for Emily was a short red-dress accented with black lace and an ornate black belt. That is, if she could spare the concentration to make it look nice. For now, she set to work drawing up the plan. <font color=""orange"">""I'm working on yours next Emily, if you want to have a look at the designs.""</font> Penelope offered, bent over the work desk drawing over a sheet of paper. 

Penelope had long since stripped herself of the limited fabric of her jeans and was now in a large sweater and sweatpants. The sweat pants her hiked up to her knees as she liked it that way, no matter how silly it made her look. 

<font color=""orange"">""What about Mrs. Universe? Since Emily can sort of know anything at the top of a hat. Eh... it might not fit...""</font> She offered, biting her lip a bit as she thought some more.</div>"

She swipes halfheartedly  through through an endless feed of photos and self involved statuses from her friends and classmates. Even if she seem totally involved in her phone, Heather’s mind was more concern with the upcoming mission. She tried examine the situation with a calmness that Heather was used to, but there was still a small feeling of fear. With a sigh, Heather tries to focus on the chatter around her. This should be the fun part, the part were the ragtag group designs a identity for themselves. Costumes wold be created, and names will be decided in an effort to complete the illusion of heroism. Heather peeks up from her screen to observe the group grow more involved with giving out names. 

She does speak up with any ideas of her own, but she instead thinks up possible names for herself. Given her ability, Heather would have plenty of names to pick from. Bolt and Surge would not do, and sparks just sounded lame. 
“Maybe voltage.” Heather speaks out, mostly to herself but also to whoever happen to be listening in the room. “I kinda like voltage, could tack a ‘Mis.’ Or ‘lady.”” She says with a shrug.</div>"

The outfit was simple, a tight, form fitting black suit covered the body, complete with gloves and boots. The mask was equally economic, just a black eye mask to hid her identity. There were, however, two extravagant details to the costume, a trailing sewn in scarf and a utility belt of sorts around the waist. Her measurements were penned into the corner of the drawing.

Reaching Penelope's table, Emily peered over the elastic female's sketches. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""Ooh, that's nice,""</font> she remarked. <font color=""deepskyblue"">""I like it!

Wrong. The Scientist is Professor Finn Rohrbach, a scientist from Germany, and he has discovered a rare element that, when combined with certain chemicals, can give beings incredible powers. The rats Rohrbach tested with all developed incredible powers and he now wants to push forward and test on human subjects. 

When the subjects consume their picked pills, they gain powers within the next few days and are required to stay in Rohrbach's lab. After their powers begin to surface, Rohrbach is forced to reveal his true intentions. He had hand picked them, wanting to build a team of superheroes to fight crime. Having lost his wife to a murderer, Rohrbach has a few reasons to want to see justice served but has always been too scared to do so himself. Promising the students that he would help change them back if he helped them, he got them to form a group and told them they could find their own missions to complete and Rohrbach would also send them missions to go on. He also told them to come back periodically to get a check up with him.

There are several pills, one for each participant. For this RP to work, we need to get a few RPers and then start, once we start, it will be very hard for others to join in later. I may let one or two slip in after start up in IC, but that would be it. 

My max number will be 10. This means that I will absolutely stop after 10 players but I may stop well before 10 if I feel that we won't get many more. My minimum is three, four including myself. 

The way the pills will work is, you will make a list of 2-3 powers that you wouldn't mind playing. When you make a CS, you will have a section to say which pill your character took. I will randomly assign colors to these powers and make a list of colors for you all to choose from. And so, when you post your CS, I will tell you which power you got. You may only change your power ONCE and when you ask for a change, I will choose from the list myself. After that, you're stuck with what you got.

Name: Veronica Lisa Chambers, Vee to her friends
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Personality: Veronica is generous and kind, almost to a fault. She tends to want to give people what they need and ask nothing in return, which often leaves her broke, and then winds up needing money bad, but somehow it always works out for her.
Background: Veronica is majoring in Business, and actually owns her own store, a small cafe called ""The Fresh Pot"". The cafe is relatively successful, but Veronica usually winds up giving most of her profits to charity. On the most recent occasion, she didn't leave herself enough money to pay her rent, which is why she took the professor's offer.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Cold, brisk, and sharp are the three words that describes him. He's generally abrupt to most strangers, and even colder to those he dislikes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Orion went to college to major in Visual and Performance Arts.

I was going to write out this whole shpeel about the villain character and such but I've decided to revise the plot of the RP a bit. 

So, uh... pay attention.

So, the person that took the black pill, Orion, in this case, did not go crazy and start killing people randomly because he was power hungry. Instead, all of the students just sort of... gained their powers and now they work with Rohrbach to fight crime. Sort of like...

Rohrbach:...so, uh.. you guys have superpowers. How do you feel about fighting crime now? 

Students:...Are you kidding?

Rohrbach:Noooope. You could really save lives, yanno. As... real life superheroes.

Students:... Uh... I guess...

Rohrbach: Good, I'll give you a mission periodically and you're welcome to find your own as a group. Bye now. :D (Come see me every so often for a check up.)

Penelope, my character which has been placed in the Character Tab already which is why I assume you might have missed her, already has the orange color. So, pick a new color and he's accepted. :)

I'll have to say no to number two as I avoid powers like that like the plague. Ye, they're cool, but it opens a whole cesspool of godmodding that I don't even want to chance. Not to say that I don't trust any of you, but ye. So pick a new second power and I'll add it. The other two are fine and I'll put them in now.

I'll probably try to get this started up tomorrow for you all since we've gotten so many players. So, tomorrow afternoon sometime I'll close the RP to new players. 

Just to let you guys know, on Fridays I have indoor club which usually runs from 7 on until midnight or later. But I'll usually have my laptop there so I can still make posts. And on Sundays I have a tabletop game which is GMed by my boyfriend and he gets pretty pissy when I RP while... RPing. Yanno?

But otherwise, I'm on almost every night unless I'm just stressed out and need a night to myself. 

Also, I will be posting up a chatroom for us to use in the OP. It will be open 24/7 so whenever you want to chat, feel free to click the link and join in.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Heather is very competitive, going to great lengths to win anything she has set her sights on. The only place she is not as competitive is her actual school work. When it comes to other matters, Heather is very focus and is not afraid to be harsh to get what she wants. She is also very outgoing, confident,  and loves to laugh, even if it is sometimes at the expense of others. It should also be noted that Heather’s temper is very short and explosive. She is not afraid to snap on something if they set her off, unfortunately this means that she tends to say or do things she may regret later. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
Since Heather could walk, her parents expected the world out of her. She was captain of the t-ball team, sold the most Girl Scout cookies three years in a row, played softball and volleyball in middle school, and was enrolled in all the honor classes.  It looked like the perfect family, but not so much. Her parents fought and Heather always felt her accomplishments were the only thing that kept her parents happy. In highschool her parents finally had enough of each other and split.  Without the pressure of her parents’ divorce looming over, Heather decided to rebel instead of obeying. Heather failed out of the honors classes (She cheated anyway) Dropped from almost all her clubs and found that partying with the rich kids was more her style. The only activity Heather remained enrolled in was track, because running was the only thing that made sense. Good thing she kept with track too, because it turned out she was good enough for a scholarship. Heather majored in health and physical fitness with the aspiration to become a personal trainer while running college track, and at first things went well. But Heather started partying again and things began to spiral. Her grades dropped too low, she was placed on probation from sports, and her scholarship was lost. Luckily, she scrapped together enough money from her parents and student loans to remain for another semester.  Now she is trying to raise her grades to reapply for her scholarship and trying to live without track for a semester.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ferghus Gilroy

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 24 (A Bit late to college) 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ferghus is a man who, on the outside, appears to be rather gruff, however anyone who gets to know the guy will soon find out that he is about as gentle as a butterfly. Soft spoken and kindhearted are two defining traits that mister Gilroy prides himself on, although, he has a problem keeping his true feelings about anything in particular to himself. He finds it quite difficult to be secretive and likes to face the consequences of his action head on.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Ferghus is an Irishman who spent the majority of his life performing in his family's traveling circus. From the very day he could walk and talk his father began training the boy to be a great strongman like himself. Ferghus was able to see all sorts of people across his life and due to such he developed a rather detached worldview and morality. 

Sure, times were fine for him and his family, but Ferghus was never schooled resulting in him being unfortunately uneducated, this frustrated him to no end, there were so many things that he could not understand. Beginning in his teenaged years Ferghus bought as many books as he could, studying things such as simple mathematics to skimming over sciences. And though it took the poor boy nine tries he finally passed the test in order to get a General Educations Diploma. But this was only his first step. Ferghus hoarded the money earned from the days and nights spent performing and put it towards a fund for college. Traveling to a mediocre college that his money could buy in to Ferghus knew that the road would be harsh and unforgiving. Always with a curiosity for knowledge and the arts, the strongman majored in English literature, in hopes that he would one day be able to write stories as eloquently as the greats before his time.

Unfortunately, the boy was unable to do much research on what life would be like during college, money was short and it might have been all over quick, if he hadn't gotten word that there was some sort of opportunity for him. Some scientist named Rohrbach or something, he had no where else to turn to. Ferghus plunged himself into a future that would almost certainly be fraught with hardships. The purple pill was swallowed without a second thought.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chosen Pill Color:</span> Purple pill

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Ferghus has a tiny bit of skill in forms of brawling due to his days as a young circus strongman, although he is more a mountain of thought and reflection than a burly tough guy.

And I believe we can add a couple of powers to the pool so I'll go ahead and say:

<span class=""bb-b"">Enhanced toughness</span> (You can really take a punch)

<span class=""bb-b"">Heightened Olfactories</span> (Super smell and taste, almost completely useless except for hyper creative people.)

<span class=""bb-b"">Gravity Manipulation</span> (Might be overpowered so you could easily disregard it, ability to manipulate gravitons or other types of gravitational interaction, perhaps only on one's self?)

Of course this is only if there is room or anything like that, thank you for your time!</div>"

They could. Like, the professor might let someone take more than one pill eventually.  Or someone, bad someone, takes the pills from the professor and uses them to make a band of villains to fight us.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Heather is very competitive, going to great lengths to win anything she has set her sights on. The only place she is not as competitive is her actual school work. When it comes to other matters, Heather is very focus and is not afraid to be harsh to get what she wants. She is also very outgoing, confident,  and loves to laugh, even if it is sometimes at the expense of others. It should also be noted that Heather’s temper is very short and explosive. She is not afraid to snap on something if they set her off, unfortunately this means that she tends to say or do things she may regret later. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
Since Heather could walk, her parents expected the world out of her. She was captain of the t-ball team, sold the most Girl Scout cookies three years in a row, played softball and volleyball in middle school, and was enrolled in all the honor classes.  It looked like the perfect family, but not so much. Her parents fought and Heather always felt her accomplishments were the only thing that kept her parents happy. In highschool her parents finally had enough of each other and split.  Without the pressure of her parents’ divorce looming over, Heather decided to rebel instead of obeying. Heather failed out of the honors classes (She cheated anyway) Dropped from almost all her clubs and found that partying with the rich kids was more her style. The only activity Heather remained enrolled in was track, because running was the only thing that made sense. Good thing she kept with track too, because it turned out she was good enough for a scholarship. Heather majored in health and physical fitness with the aspiration to become a personal trainer while running college track, and at first things went well. But Heather started partying again and things began to spiral. Her grades dropped too low, she was placed on probation from sports, and her scholarship was lost. Luckily, she scrapped together enough money from her parents and student loans to remain for another semester.  Now she is trying to raise her grades to reapply for her scholarship and trying to live without track for a semester. Maybe this new program will help her take her mind off things and the extra money couldn’t hurt.

I'll attempt to help by finding what I can. The only thing that bothers me, really, is how old he looks. And again, I'm not going to turn you away for a picture, that's not cool. But I will see if I can't help you find one that is more suitable to your thoughts as well as the RP itself.

Yes! It just makes it easier for me to see who has been accepted and such. That way I don't ignore anyone. 

And yeah, I can feel ya. I'm excited. I like working around things/working with things. So I think it'll be interesting to see how someone would adapt to a power that is completely random for them. I mean... Bruce Banner wasn't born knowing he was going to be the Hulk, right? :P</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Emily Clarke

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Emily goes through life at a relaxed pace, even when everyone around her is in a rush. She leaves no page unturned and no decision unplanned, quietly confident in herself and those around her. She is very logical and doesn't bring attention to herself, yet she enjoys the finer things in life and is thus commonly seen wearing...well, things like in her picture. She practices tai chi and is known to meditate on occasion. All this doesn't mean she has no sense of humor, however; she's always searching for a song to sing and a laugh to share.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Emily had an idyllic upbringing, raised in the suburbs by an upper middle class family. She quickly decided to refuse financial assistance from anyone (especially her parents), viewing ""old money"" as undeserved. When old enough to work, she started from scratch, working anywhere that would hire her. A string of jobs including receptionist jobs, a long stint at Chipotle and the occasional modeling gig eventually earned her enough money to afford higher education, and she enrolled in college as soon as she could. Studying to become an architect, she now works a part-time job as a receptionist for the university. Although she has a steady flow of income, the lucrative nature of Project Olympia combined with her scientific ""why not?"" conclusion drew her to the experiment.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chosen Pill Color:</span> Maroon

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Emily can often be found with headphones on her ears. She usually serenades herself to the sweet sounds of the Alan Parsons Project, and enjoys singing despite never taking any lessons or being in choir.</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/driving-park"">@Driving Park</a></footer></blockquote>

Lul.

Btw, when we do start, where would you all like to start? At the cafe or in the lab? No matter what it'll be have been a few weeks after their powers emerged so they will both a) known each other to some degree, b) be at least familiar with their powers.

Also, would you guys prefer it if the students lived in their dorms or made permanent residence with Prof. Rorhbach? I'm leaving it up to you all because I could go either way.

Also, Emily Clarke is accepted. I like her a lot. Definitely worth the wait. (:

Also also, Karasoth, if you wouldn't mind, could put post up your CS again with all of the correction so I don't have to hunt for your edits? It would be greatly appreciated. If not, it may just take me a bit longer to look through and keep tabs on where you are edit-ise. Thanks. :D</div>"

I honestly like the idea of them all living in at least the same area. It sort of leans towards this idea of 'Hey, we're such good friends, we live together!'

But if people would prefer their character live by themselves, that's fine. I just know I would like for at least one character to live with mine, or live near. 

Also, if we want to split it up, some people can live off campus, some can live in apartments, and some can live with Prof. Rohrbach. But... eh... My preference (Taking off my GM hate here.) would be that they live within walking distance of each other at the least. I would love it if a good portion of them lived in Rohrbach's Lab simply because I think that's cool.

Rohrbach: You can't afford to stay here anymore?
Penelope: Yep. I got fired the other day. Moving out this weekend.
Rorhbach: Move into my lab, plenty of rooms for all of you to stay, honestly.
Penelope: ...Sure, but I'm still going to pay you, k?
Rohrbach: Fine by me.</div>"

Also, Emily has an apartment. It's unlikely she'd move out to move into a lab where she doesn't have to pay to live there. I was thinking off-campus, but there could be an apartment complex next to the lab perhaps. After all, I'm typing this from my ON-campus apartment.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> <font color=""#a0410d"">Ray Joe Ali Johnson</font>
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Tough, hardworking and determined are the traits he is most identified with. He hates being treated as weak and moreover hates other people being weak. Joe honestly believes that a person that doesn't stand up for themselves is pathetic and is just making excuses. Joe when outside of work or studies likes to have fun and goof off. Despite all appearances however, he is actually intelligent and knowledgeable about various topics, as well as talented and skilled in numerous daily tasks such as cooking; those close to him dubbed him as a true 'Renaissance Man' - a master of multiple things. 
This is not quite true though: Everything he does is done out of a desperate need to avoid going back to his former lifestyle. It has made him reckless, cynical, and prone to self-destructive actions. Finally, the thing that can be considered a true weakness is his inability to trust a woman under any circumstance - no matter the consequence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
He was born as the son of an aspiring boxer and his High school sweetheart. Named after the greatest boxers the world as ever seen, his father hoped to raise him and create a great boxer out of him. He only got to do half of that. His father died just before he could sign a deal for his first Title Fight due to a car crash. At the time, Joe was 8 years old. His mother, 24 at the time, who had taken care of him up until that point went into depression, before leaving him with his neighbors and disappearing. He resented her ever since.

Two years passed, and his life was living hell. His neighbors wife hated him greatly and saw him only as an extra burden. She repeatedly beat him and constantly drove him out of the house. The only reason she didn't kick him out completely was because her husband owed a debt of gratitude to his father, and actually liked him. Still, there was a limit to how much a person could endure. One day, he snapped and just . . . knocked her out. All it took was one hit and a ten year old boy knocked out a fully grown adult. Joe had definitely inherited his fathers genes. Still, out of fear or retribution, he ran out of the house and hid in a nearby park. 

The park, incidentally, was the training ground of a particular gym owner, who specialized in boxing. Like a moment of true destiny, the man found Joe and in an awkward attempt to snap him out of his depression, began an impromptu boxing session. Joe loved every minute of it. The man, Terry Finkles, was so impressed with him that he invited him to practice at his gym for free. He accepted. As soon as he got back home, he told his aunt and uncle about his meeting with Terry, and announced his intent to become the worlds best boxer. His neighbor was glad to see his father in him, and his wife was glad just to have him out more. 

Joe took odd jobs once he was fifteen to earn money for himself, and practiced constantly in the gym. Another event occurred, however, and all the money he had earned was stolen by a girl that pretended to be in love with him, and indirectly ruined his reputation in the gym. His distrust towards women solidified even more. The only person that he had left to trust was himself and Terry, he decided. 

Currently, he is practicing for his debut on the international boxing stage.

Penelope likes food. Period. So ye... If someone can cook, she'll love them forever because she can't cook for the life of her.

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>

Alright. So, after looking at some of the responses, I think I've come up with a solution to our problem. And if someone sees flaws with this solution, please be gentle with me. ( I scare easily. (; )

We have our campus which looks something akin to <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/SS86pHv.jpg"">this</a>. I tried to put names in but couldn't so I'll attempt to do that at some point. If someone wants to take a stab at it, they are also more than welcome. On North Broadway Street (I didn't care to block out the street names.) there is Rohrbach's lab which works with the University in some instances and across the street from his lab will be an apartment complex. Some students live in the dorm that is on the otherside of Rohrbach's Lab, some in his lab, and some in the apartment complex across the street. That way, they are all still centralized on the Lab and everyone is happy, ye?</div>"

Vector Manipulation is more similar to Telekinesis than Dimension Manipulation (portals). You can basically modify any object's trajectory. (Ninja'd.)

Age: 19

Gender: Male 

Personality: 
“Never judge a books by its cover” is a well-applied saying but, with Felyse, he is exactly as he appears. Whimsical and overly-eccentric, he is a kid at heart and impulsive to boot. He is, without a doubt, a teen with too few marbles and an insatiable curiosity for places considered off limits [WARNING: Reverse psychology might just backfire. Maybe. Maybe not]. With an easy-going attitude, he tackles any situation with an optimistic view and a bundle of playful insights. However, this positive attitude can easily be a double-edged sword as he can be seen as naïve, innocent, or too idealistic. He refuses to think things through or even the consequences of his actions. As a rule he follows, he shall have no regrets. He shall call out “YOLO.”   

Background: 
Felyse was a free spirit, having a rather lax upbringing in a simple home. He was mostly left to his own device ever since his parents took one look at their recently-turned-goth daughter, then at their son's purple bunny-eared hat, and went “NOPE, can’t handle this.” His parents encourage exploration and free will, and expected nothing out of him. Chained down with neither expectations nor dreams, he is struck with the ideal of finding passion and happiness. The second child to a relatively normal family, Felyse like to consider himself a “jack-of-all-trade.” Majoring in the undecided, Felyse tried his hands at various skills, only to – all too often – lose interest in any skill he pursues after a few weeks. Cooking, sports, dancing, drama – he had been through it all as he stride through clubs like some home invader exploring for prospective wealth; although, he occasionally revisit these skills at a later date, leading to a very varied shallow skill set. 

It wasn’t long before he finally dipped his hands in gambling, easily drawn into the idea of earning thousands of dollars within a single game and losing the clothes on your back with a simple toss of a coin. Eventually, as time went by, he took it as a source of entertainment, losing and winning on a whim with a smile on his face. His earnings were never steady; his wallet filled with either a wad of cash for a day or a piece of lint for a whole month since he never takes gambling seriously – or have the slightest idea of budgeting.

He was more than happy to a guinea pig for the good professor when Rohrbach approached him with Project Olympia. Who’s gonna turn down the chance of free drugs, getting paid along the way? 

That green lime-looking pill is looking rather tempting…

Other: Felyse is a pretty dated guy, using words that are equally as dated like “bodacious” or “hodgepodge.” He has an admiration for cinema and movies from all decades.

Age: 19

Gender: Male 

Personality: 
“Never judge a books by its cover” is a well-applied saying but, with Felyse, he is exactly as he appears. Whimsical and overly-eccentric, he is a kid at heart and impulsive to boot. He is, without a doubt, a teen with too few marbles and an insatiable curiosity for places considered off limits [WARNING: Reverse psychology might just backfire. Maybe. Maybe not]. With an easy-going attitude, he tackles any situation with an optimistic view and a bundle of playful insights. However, this positive attitude can easily be a double-edged sword as he can be seen as naïve, innocent, or too idealistic. He refuses to think things through or even the consequences of his actions. As a rule he follows, he shall have no regrets. He shall call out “YOLO.”

Yes. I'm working on that as we speak. I guess it was just something about the font I was using. But I'm trying to make this more like a real university map we can use as reference. I.E.

Vee: So... What class you headed to?
Penelope: British Literature, in Abbott Center.
Vee: Oh... You've got quite a walk then, eh?
Penelope: -shrugs- I have to go to the Grace-Allen Building (GAB) afterwards anyway and let them know that I won't be dropping that Math class.
Vee: Oh?
Penelope: Mhmm... It works out.

Also, Vee's coffee shop will be on N. Broadway as well.

And I changed my mind. To make things even simpler, the Lab, the Apartment Complex and the dorm building will all be on W 4th St. Farview Hall being the most favorable but ideally, they could live in different Halls over there.

It's not on there. Because the Map is of the campus. And the Lab and the apartments aren't on campus.

Sound Manipultion is on the list. <span class=""bb-s"">Pheromone manipulation is... treading on thin OP ice, I feel.</span> If you have a hard time coming up with powers, I could possibly help you. OR any of these lovely people could help you. :)

Also, Would you care to explain what you mean by Force Field Manipulation? The first thing that comes to mind it magnetism for metal manipulation. Which would be a pretty good power as well if it's not what you're talking about.

Edit: Chuks helped me with the Pheromone thing. It we look at it from a 'Animal Control' sort of power and a lesser form of mind control, very weak mind control, then I suppose it's kosher.

EditEdit: If we can settle these powers, we can start the RP tonight which is what I would prefer.</div>"

I think force-fields are basically something like that chick in Fantastic Four. I think Vectors and Telekinesis is basically that, but i don't know. Lightning Manipoolation would be good, and maybe just Animal Control instead of Pheromones? That way, it's more direct, and you can whistle down for a bird to poop on someone.

Vectors was a bit too OP.
Lightning Manipulation is good if Bleu wants to use that.

Animal Control
Forcefield manipulation

Sure! Alright, then we're pretty settled. We're really just waiting for Karasoth's last power but for the sake of time, and my sanity, I'm going to give him one and then do my own and randomize the stuff and things. Mostly because I want to start this tonight so that I can get it going and then when I'm taking my test tomorrow, I won't have to worry too terribly about how things are going or if people are getting anxious. So... Yeah. I'ma go do that now. I'm sorry if that bothers you, Karasoth but it's what I'm doing.

Also, Karasoth, when I said post your CS again, I meant the edited version and on the OOC as I wanted to look at it again to see where we were at and if you needed to fix anything else. Basically, a resubmission. Or you can just edit the fixed CS into the Characters Tab. If you're having problems with anything, PM me and let me know. I'm happy to help you out.</div>"

In a few moments, I will update the OP with all of your assigned powers.

As far as which group wants to take what, I think it's fine if we Time Skip to when the groups have decided which they'd rather take. OR, we can decide here and then sort of act it out in the IC. 

Penelope would probably push for the Bank Robbers since there are more people in her group, it would be easier for her group to take on the family of four.

I can see where he could use it as a form of very shallow copy-cat powers. As in, he can't learn EVERYTHING about boxing from watching Ray. But he CAN learn some of Ray's moves. He can't just produce a boxing technique out of thin air from watching a boxer use a completely different move. 

Basically, if Ray uses a certain style of punching. Nick can instant learn what he just saw and use it with perfection. But he can only instant learn what he can see. He can't instant learn another style of punching if he has never seen it before. 

One boxing move does not equate all of boxing. Get what I'm saying?

And yes, it includes muscle memories, and yes it requires that the muscles required are present. Nick can learn how to lift a car, doesn't mean his muscles will be able to handle it. It's not a true copy-cat skill. It's instant intelligence.

And as far as the clarity, he knows the basics of boxing just from watching ray throw one punch, because all of the subtle things that normal humans may look over about his form, angles of his shoulders, the way throws the punch and the way he retracts it, is an encyclopedia of knowledge to the superhuman ability to pay attention to these very tiny details. 
Plus its not like Nick has never seen a fight or a boxing match in his life prior to this, he knows the theory of how boxing works anyway, he just needed to be hit with a real life demonstration to put all that knowledge together in a cocktail of pure information and muscle memory.</div>"

 Ray has had boxing as his focus for over ten years of his life. Plus, technique is only part of the speed. A good deal of it comes from muscle that Nick has not had the chance to build up yet. 

In any case, knowing the theory of boxing or fighting or how a person moves is useless once in the fight itself. Fighters have spent years studying each other, and in the end they still end up having to improvise on the go. If learning how to fight was all a person needed, then there wouldn't be anymore knockouts, and what fun would that be? xD</div>"

 Ray has had boxing as his focus for over ten years of his life. Plus, technique is only part of the speed. A good deal of it comes from muscle that Nick has not had the chance to build up yet. 

In any case, knowing the theory of boxing or fighting or how a person moves is useless once in the fight itself. Fighters have spent years studying each other, and in the end they still end up having to improvise on the go. If learning how to fight was all a person needed, then there wouldn't be anymore knockouts, and what fun would that be? xD<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/thehangedman"">@TheHangedMan</a></footer></blockquote>

Ahh of course, but the ability to put a theory to physical movement is something that most people cant do, thats why the need to 'drill' to train their body to 'remember' how to move, even if their mind already knows how it works. Nicholas has a superhuman ability to bring that altogether in a way that nobody else can.

This is a subset of 'clarity' the ability to learn isnt just the speed in which he picks things up, its the way he learns.

But I do take your point he may not be as fast just down to his weight, but I believe Nick is very agile anyway, regardless of his powers.
definatley not as explosive as ray though.

And as you say 'improvising' on the go is where Nick is actually miles ahead, as improvising is learning and reacting on the spot, which Nick's power allows him to do much more quickly and efficiently then anybody else.</div>"

Adding Vee, I'd agree with that.

Heather with electricity does not need to be explained, but it should be mentioned that electricity + iron sand = black waves of death.

Alright! (There's something about being on a computer that lets me be more productive than when on my phone. Just more organized I guess.) So, with this, I'd like you to use your best judgement.

These students have had their powers for merely a month, that's about 4 weeks, 28 days roughly. Would Heather have the handle on her powers to do what you're about to do with her? I have no real problems with any of the applications listed there so long as Heather would be able to perform them. As she's only had her powers for a month, creating lightning constructs would be a bit out there for someone so green but charging electrical appliances or absorbing electricity can be more on her level. I'll leave it up to you and if I see a problem, I'll more than likely PM you to sort of talk it through with one another. 

I don't want to be the all-powerful being here, I want use to work together. But at the same time, I will have the last word. So... ye... 

@DP Ye. Emily is totes the girl from Arrow... Damnit, what's her name? Felicity! <span class=""bb-s"">I totally didn't just look that up on IMDb...</span> So ye...

I think everyone has a potentially useful power in their own right when used in an effective manner. Granted, Penelope's skill isn't like... catastrophic but she could be terribly hard to pin down or capture. She could also, potentially, be able to form her hand or such into an object like a key. Granted, this would take quite a bit of training and experience, but it's a potential. She would also be very hard to predict in combat as the nature of her ability leans itself towards unpredictability. 

So... any power can be useful. Emily could play mind-games with her foe. Like, bribery or blackmail. And in instances where machines are involved, she could stop a big machine from crushing the lot of us. Penelope can really only get herself out, but Emily can stop the damn thing from destroy everyone in it. 

So, it just depends. .-.

She has to have seen it at least in live action, video or RL. She can't shapeshift into things she doesn't know exist. And the reason I exclude pictures is because you don't get a very good idea of an animal you've never seen before from a picture. She'd have to KNOW the animal.</div>"

Yeah, I wasn't expecting Heather to instantly be able to do all these things, I just wanted to make sure these abilities were approved. I plan to make it so Heather has an reserve of electricity she generates through sleep/rest, and if that reserve runs low, she will tire/weaken. Any additional power she has depends on how much electricity she can siphon from around her.

Well, that usually happens. People get excited to post for new things and when it gets boring, they tend to slack off on posting and focus on their real world problems.

That sucks. I feel like mine could break on me at any second too and it's not even that old. .-.

I can understand why your delayed so don't stress too much about it. I hate posting on my phone so I'd like... die without my laptop. I'd have to drop everything probably simply because I refuse to RP on my phone, too irritating. 

As to the drops, if need be we can consolidate and have everyone form into one big team and completely ignore that there was ever another team. Pretend it never happened, if you will. But that's only provided that we need to. I don't consider this RP dead by any means. Slow, yes. But I can see that we have a few dedicated players that are both willing to wait and all pretty much on the same wave length in terms of patience/work load. I wish I could spend hours a day posting on RPG but this is the first day in a few months that I've had hours to waste on RPG. So ye... .-.

Anyway! I'll be around today and such if anyone gets on the Pad, le Fresh Pot, but I'll be leaving around 7 for club activities. They get sort of pissy when I stay on my computer instead of playing games with them. So ye.</div>"

He was always a bit more bookish than his brothers, but he didn't mind. The road to becoming a commando had been hard, but he always considered becoming a tech specialist to be harder.

Any clone could pick up a blaster and gun down some droids. That's what they were bred for, after all. But to calculate seperatist army positions using known droid schematics data, average movement speed of said droids, and hack some on-site systems to track it all? 

That took a special kind of mind.

   Like this with more furs and more dimly lit.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> The Khan is what some would call a manic, and whoever would call him that is long deceased. Overly-friendly and generous he is the greatest host you could ask for. His palace has been a mystery location in Ricco Rengo for many years. Cynical and deceptive The Khan is not somebody who should be taken as lightly as he seems. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Hank Liu is the son of Lucille and Han Liu, Lucille was what some would call a prostitute. An avid drug addict as well. She didn’t know she was pregnant until too late and the abortion clinic refused her. She went to Han Liu a recent customer and senator. She claimed the baby was his and being the pro-life man he is he decided she should have it. Though it needed to be kept private due to the fact that he is a bastard and son of a lady caller. Han Liu’s conservative name would be diminished if anybody found out. Once the baby was born Han named him Hank after him (he was a very vain man). And named him the americanized name so he would seem more legitimate. 

Over the years Hank grew tired of his father and his hypocritical ways. His father was a completely different person behind closed doors. Forced to meet ridiculous standards for grades and other work Hank was at a breaking point. And he would’ve broken if not for Duel Monsters, his only refuge. The only thing Hank liked about his father is that he was easy to blackmail. Which meant getting the latest and greatest cards whenever he wanted. He then began dueling competitively and was starting to win money. Han Liu took and interest in this and decided to start gambling on his son behind his back. Then when Hank made it to the district championship. Big money was on the duel. One duel to win or lose it all. Han bet on his son a large amount of money that the government would definitely notice if it went missing. So when Hank lost due to an unfortunate last second card. His father was in deep over his head. So his only choice besides tarnishing his name and shot at a higher political position. Was to give the Triads something better than money. A slave.

A slave to the Triads Hank grew tough, and has a lot of dark things in his past. That won’t be revealed now. Needless to say gruesome conditions he was put in resulted in his only use showing. Dueling and blackmailing. How he gained most of his wealth is still a mystery to this day.

Gender: Female
Age: 16
Appearance: <a href=""http://safebooru.org//images/1002/2497bfb9ace413b7530b7f4b8e1ad64b444acd97.jpg?1007764"">Link</a>
Personality: Though she comes off as a bit aloof at times, Fubuki is particularly open when it comes to making new relationships. After her mother's passing, Fubuki shut herself away mentally, only beginning to crawl out of that shell she build up at the age of 12. Because of that, much of her interactions with people are quite formal, which in turn brings a tendency for most people to shy away from her. That doesn't mean, however, that she doesn't show emotions- she's just a bit... Awkward, to put it lightly.
While dueling, Fubuki tends to open up to people a bit more, often times smiling as she gets into the midst of a good duel. However, it usually doesn't get much farther than that. She's a good sport about a loss, though, often congratulating the opponent for a hard-fought battle.
Bio: When Fubuki was young, her mother died in an accident while travelling overseas for a business venture, leaving her father to care for a 6-year old Fubuki on his own. Due to the company's aid, Fubuki managed to live her school life fairly uneventfully. However, one day a business partner of Fubuki's father came and offered Fubuki and her father an offer: have the girl learn the ins and outs of dueling and enter the upcoming tournament in Battle City in exchange for publicity for a small dueling academy he was trying to start up. Her father was originally against this, as his wife had been in contact with Industrial Illusions up to the day her death occurred, and feared that being involved in dueling would cause undue mental stress to Fubuki. Fubuki, on the other hand, embraced the idea wholeheartedly- such an event would be a nice change of pace from her average life and might even lead to more about her mother.
Signature Feature: Her eyes flash light blue the second before she deals a finishing blow to her opponent in a duel.

Personality: Joseph loves being the center of attention, often times making flashy moves or adding unneeded motions to his dialogue as he speaks. He's very social in that regard, and it quite at home chatting it up with other people, be they customers at his father's restaurant or other people in school during his free time. However, Joseph knows when to dial back the spotlight and let other people have their share. Can't just have one star in the sky, after all.
Bio: Never one to miss a beat, Joseph's always been active with other people. His parents owned a restaurant where many duelists frequented, and Joseph was enraptured by them all. The plays, the comebacks, the combos... Everything seemed to just keep him entranced. When he entered school, he was the one everyone looked to for information on the topic, mainly because he knew everything from overhearing it from the customers. When he entered high school, Joseph ended up becoming a premier duelist for his school's club, often topping tournaments left and right. When a representative of the tournament came to his school, Joseph was elected by his fellow club members to go participate. His parents, too, found it to be a good experience to take on and encouraged him to enter.
Signature Feature: His Duel Disk grows brighter the higher his LP is and dimmer the lower it is.

Like this without the weapons</div></div>
Personality: Aono is quite the strange guy. He is laid back most of the time, and he doesn't really care about everything. This changes when he enters a duel. He becomes quite cocky, but not in a really bad way. More in a I will beat you, just watch kind of style. His ego is in perhaps his biggest ego. He isn't the nicest guy though. Smoking, drinking lots of beer, messing around with every girl he meets.. Its his way of life. Those who knew Aono before he started playing Yu-Gi-Oh claim that the first card he ever got, Void Ogre Dragon, changed Aono as a person, and that he might even be possessed by it in some odd way. 

Biography: Before starting to play Yu-Gi-Oh, Aono was known to be one of the nicest guys around. This all changed when he picked up his first Yu-Gi-Oh card, Void Ogre Dragon. Aono began to become quite cocky, he started to pick up bad habits and he even dropped out of school, and he got in constant fights with his parents. He did however become a top tier duelist, being famous for his famous handless combo summoning his key card Void Ogre Dragon, making him win a lot of duels. Aono wagered a lot of money in underground dueling tournaments, winning most of them. 4 years ago, Aono's parents disappeared, nobody really knows what happened besides Aono himself. Most people think it was Aono himself who got rid of them after them harassing him for every mistake he made.

Personality: A quiet and soft-hearted person by nature, Miwa is a wallflower, preferring to observe things and people at a distance rather than face them head on. As such, she finds it hard to communicate with others and is often thought of as anti-social, in reality she just finds it hard to make friends. One thing Miwa hates is her dependency on others, she thinks she cannot accomplish big things by herself and often asks help for others, but her difficulty in communicating makes it a nigh-impossible trial for her.

Biography: Born and raised by a luxurious family, Miwa was sheltered as a child. Her parents forbidding her to go outside, saying it was a <span class=""bb-i"">""dangerous place""</span> whenever she asked them or whenever she tried to go out. Even education for her was done in the confines of their mansion, a place that she grew to hate over the years, she would look on with envy as the children outside would run around and play things such as tag and hide-and go-seek, it was one of the many things that money could not afford that Miwa wanted.

One day when she was 11, the family of a longtime friend of her mother came to visit and they had brought their son who was around the same age as her. He had with him two decks to play with, he was expecting a son to play with but ended up playing with Miwa, a choice that both he and the girl did not regret. They played for hours on end, with the boy teaching her the basics of the game and even giving her the deck they used in their first duel as a gift.

As the years passed and they grew older, so did their expertise in the game. The boy would constantly visit her on a biweekly basis and see if she was getting better or had picked up a card or two. On a particular day he said that he had a special card to give her, provided she win in their next duel, she accepted and through a teeth-gritting struggle, Miwa managed to defeat him and claim this so-called ""special card"". He had given her the card <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Madolche Puddingcess""</span></span> when she asked why, the boy scratched the back of his hair and said that the card reminded him of Miwa. She blushed profusely and gingerly thanked him. After an awkward silence, he laughed and said that she had gotten stronger ever since they fought as kids and he had told her there was to be an upcoming tournament, the boy asked for her to join.

At first she declined, saying that her skills are far from tournament worthy and that there would be too many stronger duelists that would pummel her in seconds, but after some words of encouragement, she agreed. The boy gave a big grin and motioned his pinky to the girl and said to her <span class=""bb-i"">""Promise me that you'll use her good, okay?""</span> Miwa nodded and intertwined her pinky to his, thanking him for the company he's brought her.

<div class=""bb-h1"">Kenta Hamasaki</div>

Personality: Slow on the pickup and having very mediocre scores in school, Kenta is the type of person who lives by his own motto, namely <span class=""bb-i"">""Rest first, work later""</span>. He's a big procrastinator, which may or may not be the reason why his grades lean on C's to B's. Despite being laid back most of the time, he's quick to jump to conclusions and his temper isn't the best, a few push of his buttons and he'll let his fists do all the talking.

Bio: A normal boy by any other name. Kenta's family is as plain as they come, in other words: boring. There was rarely anything new whenever he was home, his dad reading the newspaper shortly after coming back from work, his mother watching the local teledrama when she wasn't cooking and his older brother playing with his gadgets, everyone was too busy in their own worlds, during his childhood he loathed it. He had nothing to do during days where his friends outside weren't there or when heavy rain would pour down on their kiddy playtime.

Middle school rolled in and one faithful day during their recess, a group of kids huddled around the latest craze, Yu-Gi-Oh! At the time, the boy was really hoping he'd have a chance to play it, why not? It was the most hip thing that all his friends were glossing all over, and if there was anything to escape the monotony of his house, it was this. He fought with other kids multiple times, besting most of them within his first few tries of the game. He was happy, he finally found something he could do inside his room for once! One that wasn't watching television over and over or doing mind-numbing homework!!

As he grew older, Kenta would participate in local tournaments, some he has won and others, not so much while others were so difficult, he had lost within the first round. With another tournament on its way, surely this would be the perfect chance to see both himself and others in action, right?

Signature Feature: Tends to give a rating for himself whenever a Duel is over.

Gender: Male

Appearance: <a href=""http://static.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/330680-bigthumbnail.jpg"">This guy.</a>
Personality: He can be quite friendly. He's a pretty nice guy to almost anyone he meets, and he's always smiling. He always tries to achieve a peaceful solution to problems, no matter what it is. Be careful, though, because if you get on his bad side, then he seems to emit a dark aura, and his smile seems to change from friendly to menacing, despite it not changing in appearance. You will notice when his voice takes a sharp edge.
Bio: Alexander is a pretty standard guy. Doesn't miss a day in school, gets A's and B's in class, hangs out with friends, etc. One day, he found a Duel Monsters card on the ground, and he was instant hooked. He started to research Duel Monsters and gather cards to complete his collection for his card, and he soon gathered more than enough to create his very own deck. It was then that his passion for Dueling began. There were so many factors that had to be taken in, and strategies and counter-strategies to learn about peoples' decks. He enrolled in a small duel school that took place after his regular school so he could spend some time Dueling with others who had the same interest as him. From there he worked his way up, beating even the duel school principal and entering a local tournament. He didn't win the tournament, sadly, but he came pretty darn close. Even now, his love for Dueling has not wavered.
Signature Feature: He tends to say ""Checkmate"" right before the finishing blow.

Personality: Michelle is a bit of an introvert, and quite shy. She's not really one to talk to others, and as such has few friends. She spends most of her time by herself with her Duel Monsters cards, either at school or at home. 
Bio: Michelle's mother is an ex-Pro Duelist, while her father is an accountant. Michelle was entranced with Duel Monsters as a child, and spent most of her time with Duel Monster cards. She spent hours creating decks, only for them to lose multiple times in a row. Despite these events, she continued trying. She tried a lot of decks, and as such gained knowledge of the different summoning techniques, and her deck making skills improved so that her win/lose ratio increased. However, the ratio was still pretty low.

One day, though, Michelle's mother asked her to make to best deck she could, and to meet her in their backyard. A day later, she created her deck and met her mother outside. It turned out that Michelle's mother had challenged her to a Duel, and her mother would use her personal deck. The challenge, sadly, proved to be too much for Michelle to overcome, and she lost after a close match. Afterwards, though, her mother gave Michelle her deck, and told Michelle to make her proud. Michelle accepted gladly, confident that she would uphold that promise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Jack DuBois is a wonderful, kind hearted, soft spoken individual.  He would also laugh in your face if you happened to believe that for even half a second.  Jack is a strategic, calculating man who appreciates if not demands a challenge from his opponents.  Jack is sarcastic by nature; manipulative and deceitful when necessary.  Jack isn't incapable of genuine friendship, he's just incredibly bored by most of those he meets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>  At some point, it can be deduced, there was a man and woman who had a child.  This child, would inevitably grow up to call himself Jackson P. DuBois and take the world of Duel Monsters by storm.  As well as his interest in Duel Monsters, Jack also nursed a love for history.  There was a time in his life that he aspired to be a college professor.

A duelist since grade school, Jack began playing Duel Monsters competitively only recently.  He has made enough of a name for himself, however, that he has been invited to play in Mr. Khan's 100th Anniversary event of the Battle City tournament.

Gender: Male

Age: 15

<a href=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/id/f/f4/Lockon-06-animestocks-com--1-.jpg"">Appearance.</a>

Personality: A Pagan that worships mother earth. He's generally a friendly sort, but it's when he's in the heat of duel that his spirit sets ablaze and his passion melts any ice that might be around. When the seal goes off, his passion dies down into a quiet calm that allows him to think straight and plan his moves carefully. He see's it as the seal transfering his passion to his monsters. He is also prone to bursting into song, and is proud of being a ""Galway boy""

Signature Feature: When he plays the Seal of Orichalcos, a strange green symbol appears on his forehead

Bio: Born into a mismatched family, he was the second child and first son of famous professional wrestler Douglas ""The Smiler"" O'Brian. Although, news of his conception came as a shock, due to his mother being told that she was incapable of having male children. His older Sister had been born and their father had taken to training her to be the next Wrestling Champion. His mother, on the otherhand, was a strong pagan woman. Until he was 7 years old, he and his father were rather distant, as his father spent his time training his sister. As such, he imprinted more on his mother than him. She would often take him on nature walks and show him the beauty that mother earth had to offer. She even told him an old legend of the 6 Kings. A King to rule each of the elements, Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, Light and Dark.

When he was 6, he and his sister got their first Decks, and so, he started to save up all of his pocket money on these cards. His deck was that of the Monarchs, as they had been based on the old legend of the 6 kings. Their father was a card player, but no-one phenomenal. At the age of 7, Robert and his father finally got close, as he was now old enough to start learning how to wrestle. Robert grew close to his father and sister, through the training, but he wasn't very good. He only really did it so as to get some quality, family time. Naturally, he lost to his sister... A lot...

It was when he was 13 that he decided to start trying to get closer to nature. He would often camp out in the woodlands close to his small hometown. On one fateful night, he heard a strange rustling through the undergrowth. Going to investigate, he saw a bright green hawk that was stuck in a trap, with men closing in on it, talking of how much money it was worth. Naturally, he got between them and the defenseless bird. Using his wrestling know-how, he managed to fend off one of them, but they were much larger than him, so he didn't stand much of a chance. He managed to at least get over to the bird and cut the rope with his pocket knife, at least he could save the creature. That was when it exploded in a bright green light, Wind seemed to pick up instantly as the bird transformed into a giant. The men ran but Robert was transfixed on its magnificence. It stared down at him, before disappearing and forming into a card, which floated down to him. The card was the true form of one of the Monarchs. Raiza...

After this event, he spent the next year, wandering through the area in search of the rest of the Monarchs, his first month was to no avail. Raiza, inspired by his determination to find his fellow Monarchs, told him to seek out the Majiosheldon. The Leprechauns that roamed the land under the watchful eyes of the Monarchs. He found them in a cabbage patch, three brothers, who, thanks to Raiza were convinced to assist him. With their help, he easily overcame the obstacles and reunited the 6 Mega Monarchs. They were his to call upon in battle. With this, he was bestowed a mystical card, the Seal of Orcichalcos. A seal given to those that the Monarchs decide is truly at one with them. it is proof that he is a guardian of nature and an ally of the Monarchs.

He returned home and began focusing on his finesse with his deck. His deck became infamous in the area. Eventually, he moved to the big city in order to find a teacher and get even better.

Gender: Female
Age: Nobody knows for sure, but the rumors says she is around 17 years old
Appearance: <img src=""http://images5.fanpop.com/image/photos/24900000/anime-vampire-girl-anime-24922138-370-512.jpg""/>

Personality: Emily looks around the age of 17, but nobody knows her true age, since she acts mature for her age. Outside of duels, Emily is quite calm, and acts smart most of the time. Most of the time, Emily is considered quite mature, but she tends to be really bitchy towards other girls when alone with them, and with boys its quite the opposite, she acts more like a charmer/succubus. Especially in duels, both sides of her are enhanced. She really drags herself into duels at times, almost acting like those duels are reality. 

Biography:
Legends say she is a vampire, as she has a really pale skin. Combined with the weird way she acts, the story of her being a vampire seems really legitimate. Nobody really knows where Emily came from, or where she lives. Most of the times she appears at duels, fights, beats the opponent, and leaves before anyone can even blink his eyes. Those who dueled Emily changed a lot, its almost like the duels are real to them. A few of the people who dueled Emily event went so far as being traumatized by the duels. Some duelists claim that they met Emily a few times after they lost their duel, and that they were forced to Duel her again and again until they finally won, after which Emily left them alone. Those duelists claim that they have gotten a special card, which they didn't dare to touch as those cards had a mystic aura, except for one duelist.

Emily teached herself how to duel, as she was lonely during her entire childhood. She had no parents, family or friends to be together with. Somehow she is one of the best duelists around, making the story of her being a vampire even more realistic.

Signature feature: When she defeats somebody in a duel, she says that she will visit you again, and that she demands you to train. She will keep visiting you until you improve, after which she rewards you with a random card, which appear to be some kind of possessed with a mythical power.

Gender: Male
Age: 16
Appearance: <img src=""http://i58.tinypic.com/2gv62qx.png""/>
(His millenium eye is hidden under his eyepatch)
Personality: Ryo is a person who is casual and easy-going. He loves playing games. Due to his constantly changing environment in his childhood, he prefers solitude over socialness. However, Ryo has quite a sense of justice, and would be harsh towards people who harms others. He's okay with playing risky games that can endanger himself, finding it fun in the process. So, he enjoys setting up shadow games to people who pissed him off, and uses his creativity towards his penalty games.
Bio:
Ryo lives in an ordinary small apartment in the States, with a ragged &amp; worn out car that his father drives. Despite that outlook of the environment, his parents are filthy rich, but they are in high-risk government-involved careers and are often targetted by assassins hired by countless rivals. Most of his life was spent moving about here &amp; there throughout the country. Due to the always-changing environment, he spent most of his childhood at home playing on video games, and he built walls &amp; barricades made from catridges &amp; CD cases stacked from the games that he have beaten.

One day, when he was alone at home as per usual, he received an package that have no return address. Opening it in curiosity, he found an ancient-looking eye-shaped ball that is made of gold. One moment of touch to the millennium eye, and his hand, then his whole body, lost control to the ancient object. Ryo, under the eye's influence, dug out his left eye as he fitted the millennium eye into his eye socket. He was awake all the moment, and the only thing he can do is to just endure the excruciating pain of the process. Little did he know that that was just the beginning, the eye felt like an intense fireball in him, as it went scorching through the left side of his face as the eye recognizes the new owner.

Upon regaining his control over the body, he screamed in pain, only to realize that he felt nothing anymore, the pain had stopped. It was like a horrifying nightmare, and he would have thought it to be so if there isn't his plucked out eye in front of him. The next thing he saw, was a glimpse his mother sailing through a black river on a worn-out gigantic ship, the ones that are often shown in pirate-themed movies, and an enormous signboard placed the other side of the river which wrote:""SPIRIT REALM"".

Shocked, Ryo stood up to get the telephone, as well as realizing that his wound on his millenium eye had stopped its bleeding, healed as if the eye had been perfectly replaced. He was dealt another blow when his father told him that Ryo's mother was assassinated, frantically telling Ryo on how to open the safe to that leads his inheritance, then a farewell. Since then, his parents never return home again.

What Ryo found in his father's safe were a stack of tattered money. And much to his surprise, a Blue Eyes White Dragon card, a card which is priceless, and said to be one of the strongest monster card, which have only 4 copies avaliable in the whole world. He became suspicious of what kind of jobs is his parents are doing, getting to such lengths to launder such an enormous sum of money.

He continued his life in his house playing video games, living off the inheritance he gave. (Just a piece of inheritance- cash, is too much for him to spend) That's until he received an invitation from Industrial Illusions...


Signature Feature: 
Millennium Eye- Ryo has the millennium eye, but he doesn't know how to utilize it to its fullest potential. The Millennium Eye is able to read the human mind, but he can only perceive it vaguely as ""auras"". He is only able to see how dark or light a person's aura is (basically how good or evil~). Like all millennium items user, he is able to make Shadow Games. His shadow games are mostly illusion-based, and his theme of his Penalty Games is irony. His penalty games are short though, only lasting from hours to a day, depending on how strong it is (the higher the intensity, the shorter the time).

Appearnce-<a href=""https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-prNife5vRv4/Ta2Sqddlo9I/AAAAAAAAACE/wejC6pLqjZw/s1600/happy_boy.jpg"">Image</a>

Personality- Moros is incrediably, almost overwhelmingly cheerful. It seems he always has a smile on his face and never seems to see the dark side of things. His overwhelming optimism is only matched by his willingness to duel anyone he meets. Moros is confused by aggresion and negitive feelings, because he simply doesn't understand it. Obviously he is incredibly naive and just wants to be friends with everyone. Moros will do attempt to do anything for someone he considers a friend, which is really anyone he's met.

Bio: Moros was raised in an orphanage, however he didn't live an unhappy like most orphanages are portrayed. His cheerful demeanor quickly made friends with the other kids at the orphanage. The orphanage gave all of the kids a decent allowance that allowed them to go out and buy something nice every once in a while. One day he chanced upon a group of his friends playing a game of duel monsters, he watched avidly and after the duel asked how to play. Eagerly Moros went to a card shop and bought a starter pack with the small allowance they were allowed. Moros liked the King of Skull Servants deck because he felt it was kinda like him, useless at first, but they had incredible power if played right. After many failures, which failed to remove his unending optimism, he obtained a resonable amount of skill at the game.

 However, he never really understood the forms of extra deck special summoning, XYZ, Synchro, Pendulum, Moros never really got any of that, so he hasn't used any of them. Finally he went to a local tournament and somehow managed to come out first. Immediately afterwards he recieved an invitation to the 100th annual battle city Tournament for some reason. Still confused as to why he had received an invitation since he had only won one measly tournament but eager to participate, Moros decided, why not maybe he could make some new friends? Since his travel fare was already paid for he quickly packed what few things he had and got on his airplane to the tournament, with all the good wishes of the friends he had.

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Appearance: 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WNS8IkuoptA/UCkq5U38OaI/AAAAAAAAAiw/7R_fm5B0DpY/s400/Anime_guy.jpg""/></div></div>

Personality: Contrary to what you'd expect to see in most people who use a deck like his, Lyall typically doesn't go for the whole dark and brooding type of behavior. Although actually possessing a rather chill demeanor, the way he carries himself is one filled with authority and confidence, usually managing to turn a few heads in his direction whenever he's making himself known. His is a commanding presence of course, and being around him will either make you feel reassured or intimidated. Lyall attempts to be respectful to everyone he meets, but if he encounters someone who he doesn't like or whom he feels needs to be dealt with differently, he'll act in such a way so as to make the individual(s) feel inferior and ashamed.

Now, to say that Lyall is a completely noble and proper guy wouldn't exactly be telling the truth (well, except for maybe the latter part of that). Whenever serious situations arise, he can be quite ruthless and fearsome, going to morally questionable lengths to get something that needs to be done, done. Being involved in a duel with him in this state of behavior is far from desirable because win or lose, he'll make sure that the other is left with either a humiliating defeat or a pyrrhic victory. Manipulation is also something he's capable of doing, and with pleasure at that. Behind the appearance of the (mostly) likeable young man, it's likely that this side of him is his most genuine side...

Bio: Lyall comes from a place known as Aria City, a large and rather famous city well known for its luxuries and dueling tournaments. Behind this splendor however, was the obviously more despicable and decaying area of the city where life sucked and gangs ran rampant. And Lyall... Lyall actually did <span class=""bb-i"">NOT</span> live in this part of the city. Yeah no, his family was actually part of the elite class involved with the city's dealings and projects, so he actually had it pretty good and rarely had anything to complain about. He picked up the game of Duel Monsters at an early age from his father and older brother who was already making a name for himself with it AND their aspirations to remake the squalid part of Aria City. Lyall took up after this much to his family's pleasure, except he decided to go more after the security and law enforcement part of ""business"" instead of the whole social reform and restructuring stuff the other two engaged in. Along with dueling, he became well versed in his chosen path and even acquired the (minimal) authority to handle factions of the security within the Squalid Sector (which had at this point become to spread and grow more dangerous due to a rising gang that was actually absorbing the lesser gangs). He handled it as best as he could which wasn't bad by any means, but was in the end only able to hold back the tide with the rest of his associates. 
^ Fun fact: He would actually go in himself to experience the Squalid Sector for himself and to test out his ability to duel against more hardened people. It was during these times where he began to assemble the Steelswarm and Evilswarm cards together, urged on by a mysterious voice to do so. 

One fateful tournament saw the disappearance of Lyall's father and brother, kidnapped and essentially held for ransom by the briefly mentioned criminal group that had been rising within the Squalid Sector. Apparently, they and the rest of the people there were tired of being confined to the area and especially tired of all the ""empty promises"" made by Lyall's family and their associates. Some weird, how-does-this-even-make-sense revolution thing was in the air, and Lyall's family was going to be the first to go if something wasn't done. Although the associates suggested things be resolved on a more defensive, cautionary manner, Lyall decided it'd be better to do so more forcefully this time, a surprising choice of action considering he usually suggested the same course of action. He claim he would go in and settle the matter directly, which was pretty bold if not stupid considering the situation. He didn't care though. Ever since he began to assemble his new deck in secret, his thinking had begun to change. He felt more emboldened, even cruel, and instead of seeing the crime group in the Squalid Sector as just another group faced with misfortune that needed help, he saw it as something that needed to be eliminated completely. And so he went there, undisturbed by any of the thugs there due to the recent reputation he had gotten for himself, and after some hard fought duels with members of the gang, finally completed his Lswarm deck and switched into it. It was at this point where the Lswarm crest burned itself onto his left hand, as well as the point where his spirit partner made itself known to him as the ""voice"" that would whisper in his ear.

Long (seriously, why is this so long) story short, with the newfound power Lyall pretty much crushed the gang and it's leader, something he found he actually enjoyed doing. He recovered his kidnapped family members, asked the poor beaten guys how the HELL this even happened, and returned home once the criminals were taken into custody. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE. Turns out gang leader's father was an associate of the Castellan family who did all this to try and get all the Aria City power for himself, so he got defeated and locked up as well. Why would you even do that bruh? This ain't a kingdom! It's a city with... a surprising amount of wealth and status.... I dunno anymore. But anyway, after all the trouble Lyall managed to increase and tighten security around the Squalid Sector, but this security was slowly spread elsewhere in the city by the efforts of his family since they had been convinced by Lyall it needed to be done. Yeah.

Oh yeah and he got an invitation to the Regno Ricco Tournament, so he went to it. Why? Because he is still technically a kid despite all the stuff that happened and wanted to have fun (and maybe get this Khan guy to affiliate himself with Aria City). But nah, mostly to have fun, this guy who somehow became some behind-the-scenes ""ruler"" of a depraved and messed up city that apparently had more stuff wrong in it than just the Squalid Sector, but that's a different story.


Signature Feature: Lyall bears the crest of the Lswarm on the backside of his left hand. Acquired after fully assembling his deck, the mark will glow a rusted, crimson color when he is warping a duel with the power of the mysterious Shadow Games or when he is in a duel that has already been turned into a Shadow Game by somebody else. The crest (or rather, the power behind the crest) also seems to be capable of ""infecting"" people, corrupting their natures into something determined by the darkness already inside them and the ""Lswarm Virus"". 

Deck: Lswarm Terror

Favorite Card: Evilswarm Ophion, Steelswarm Moth, Steelswarm Girastag

Other: Although it rarely makes itself seen to others, Lyall's spirit partner is likely to be Evilswarm Kerykeion. According to its history, it was formerly Constellar Rasalhague before absorbing the power of the infected Ice Barrier Dragons (Bahamut, Ophion, Ouroboros). There is one major parallel between Lyall and the monster: Despite having the power of a corrupting, overwhelming virus, both retain control over themselves and are not fully consumed by it.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <img src=""http://safebooru.org/images/786/0e2be1d36c645c74ff8b38a3b22f11c1f4b59cd4.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ava is a good kid.  Always keeps manners in mind, doesn't have any ill intentions toward anyone, and tips her waitresses generously.  She's not one to initiate social interaction, but she's by no means an introvert.  She would love to talk, but simply has no desire to start the conversation.  Especially if the topic is related to Duel Monsters or putting together the final pieces of the puzzle that is her missing memories.

Even in a duel, Ava's kind but stoic personality never falters.  However, don't expect her to ever go easy on an opponent.  Ava treats every given duel as though it could be her last.  She acts on two things.  First and foremost, her own experience as a duelist.  However, when her own judgment fails to bring her to a decision, Ava is guided by what she can only describe as a voice.  She isn't sure of the source, and is fairly certain she's not just crazy, but the voice's guidance hasn't failed her yet.  However, this voice is far less kind than Ava is.

Additionally, either Ava has short-term memory problems that surface from time to time, or there may be more to all this than meets the eye...

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Ava suffers a mild case of amnesia.  She knows the gist of her life, but the details are unknown, and some pieces are missing completely.  What she knows is she grew up well, with a family that loved her more than anything in the world.  Her father was a professional duelist, and she took after his talent.  She was the bane of many an overconfident locals player during her reign as local champion, and many say she could have even gone to nationals if she wanted.  However, there's still one big gap in her memory, which she's certain coincides with the most important event of her life.

All Ava was ever able to find on the matter was a police report that mentioned a family that matched the description of hers.  They had lost a lot of money and sank to the bottom of society, but the tricky part was the report that the family was found dead, parents killed and child hung by the neck.  Which must obviously be false unless Ava had a sibling she forgot about, as she's quite clearly alive and kicking.  She believes this event is linked to her eye somehow, and while eager to find some answers, there are times when something deep within her - a guiding voice of sorts - tells her it'd be better that she not know.

<span class=""bb-b"">Signature Feature:</span> Ava's left eye is solid yellow and surrounded in scar tissue.  She finds it hideous, and as such tends to keep it covered.

<span class=""bb-b"">Deck:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/OVpeqec.png"">TREMBLE BEFORE THE UNDEAD SCOURGE!</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Favorite Card:</span> Dragonecro Nethersoul Dragon.  Ava seems to be obsessed with this card, perhaps a bit too much so.  It seems she owns three copies, and wears the third around her neck in a protective cover at all times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> ~Ava seems to have the ability to turn a duel into a Shadow Game, but it's unknown if this ability is simply weaker in her case or if she refuses to use it to its full extent.  Losing a Shadow Game to Ava doesn't result in death as per the norm, but the loser becoming something akin to an empty husk of who they once were.  More of an emotional and mental death than a physical one.

These ""husks"" have a tendency to follow Ava if they see her, and do whatever she tells them.  However, since she typically tells them to ""be free and live for yourself"" on the rare occasions that she even uses this power, one wouldn't even notice this.  One can see a faint yellow glow from under Ava's eyepatch when this power is active, but they'd have to look closely to see it unless the eyepatch is removed, in which case it glows rather brightly.

~When in doubt, follows the guidance of ""<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU4EBXu4wto"">the voice</a>"", for better or worse.</div>"

Regno Ricco International Airport. One of a kind, home to the fanciest private jets and easiest to bribe airport security in the nation. 5 SUV Limos pull up to drop off/ pick up zone. Tinted windows hide the riches inside the luxurious behemoths. Only the fanciest for the Khan's personal pick up service. The well dressed drivers step out each in tuxedo and red vest. A small pair of sunglasses rests on each of their noses hiding their eyes. Every one of them holds a small disk glowing a green light. They walk up to an area where families are holding signs saying ""Welcome Home!"" and ""We missed you!"". They waltz silently through the crowds and pass airport security sliding each of them a sealed envelope as they pass. 

The 5 ""men"" fan out among the gates each with a specific location in mind. Each stands at the gate entrance awaiting the duelists. They slide their thumb around the glowing disk and it emits a green holograph above. They drop the disk and the holograph begins rotating. A list of names appears in the green light. And as the duelists get off their plane the drivers escort the duelists to their assigned limo without a word. Small talk is for when they get to the palace. However it's not like they were programmed to talk anyway. However the food and beverages in the limo should suffice along with some playbacks of the world's greatest duels. It's a semi-short drive only about 15 minutes to the Palace, hopefully the duelists can stand eachother that long.</div>"

She wasn't kept in the same space as the other duelists, instead, she was kept in the back of the plane during the travel, all by herself.
""Ugh... this is why i hate airplanes.. those flights are soo boring!"" She claimed, as she finally awoke from her nap.
After picking up her duel disk, deck, and some other small luggage, she finally left via the back, noticing all the other duelists leaving from the front.
""Lets see if there are any interesting duelists here..."" She whispered to herself, as she looked at all the duelists who left the plane.
""Wait... is he here too?!"" She said to herself, after noticing a boy she saw before leaving the plane.
A big smile appeared on Emily's face, as she started walking to the driver who had a list with names on it, containing her name too.
""This will be fun!"" She thought, while waking towards the designated driver.

-------------------------------------------

As the plane finished landing, a young male called Aono was looking out of the window.
""So today will be the day I will finally duel some people who are worth the time.."" He thought to himself.
As he stood up, he noticed that the amount of people in the plane was quite big.
""This tournament is quite big... Maybe i will even have some fun..."" He joked to himself, as he picked up his duel disk, deck and other belongings. As he left the plane, he noticed a girl leaving the back of the plane.
""I haven't seen her inside the plane yet... Where did she came from?"" He wondered, as he lighted a cigarette up, starting to smoke while walking towards the driver who would drive him towards the palace.</div>"
2009,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-01-31 20:49:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Fubuki sighed, staring at the deck profile of her alternate deck to make sure everything was in order. She hadn't tested it much, of course- she had only decided to build the deck once it was confirmed she was coming to America to duel. She had been given ample time on the half a day long ride from Japan, so it was only natural to use the time on the airplane to make sure everything was in order.

But the ride was... Disorienting, to say the least. She would have much preferred traveling by ship, especially given the circumstances of her mother's death. It's not that she was ungrateful, but instead it was more the fact that...

Fubuki shoved those thoughts out of her mind. There was no reason for her to have such an irrational fear of planes for such a reason. The flight was just about over anyhow, and she had just confirmed both of her decks were ready. Subconsciously holding her mother's emerald necklace, Fubuki looked out the window as the plane slowly descended to the ground.

The landing was a bit shaky, if nothing else. Placing her experimental deck in a box, Fubuki took her luggage and glanced at her Duel Disk before getting up and leaving with the other Duelists. Walking off the plane, Fubuki noticed a set of limousines and a bunch of men near them. Noticing her name floating abovehead, Fubuki walked over to the limo, accidentally bumping into a large man smoking a cigarette due to all the people pushing and shoving.

""Sorry."" she said as she continued on towards the limo.

------
Joseph laughed as he watched a comedy on the small monitor on the plane ride to Regno Rico. It was a series he had decided to pick up due to his boredom, but in the end it had caught his interest for the entire ride. Turning his glance out the window, Joseph watched as the view of the city cleared itself up.

It was as large and as bright as he had expected. Even in the middle of the day, the city seemed to be as bright as it had been rumored to be.

""I guess it's my time to shine, huh?"" he said quietly, smiling as he glanced down at his hand.

Constellarknight Diamond. A dragon made of stars. What could get cooler than that? Absentmindedly staring at the art of the card, Joseph slid the card back into his Extra Deck as the plane made it's descent. 

With this, his journey to the top would be begin. He'd definitely stand on top of the city and win everything. For all of the people that have put their faith in him back at home, he'd definitely win and make them proud.

That's what he'd say if he was cocky, of course. Champions from the world over were coming to duel- he'd feel satisfied just coming in fifth or sixth. Watching as the plane descended onto the runway, Joseph smiled. If anything, a free trip to the city was good enough in and of itself.

Leaving his seat and taking his luggage, Joseph exited the plane with everyone else as it docked and looked around for some place to-

There. He just noticed his name floating about among a bunch of others on a floating display a while away. Smiling, he took his luggage and walked to the limo he was assigned, sliding in and taking a soda from a mini-fridge in the limo itself.

""If you don't mind."" he said, taking a sip as he pulled the luggage closer to himself to leave room for more people to enter.</div>"

Aono stared silent as his cigarette dropped the ground, which was the last one in the pack of cigarettes he had with him.
Aono quickly turned around, and yelled ""Hey... You are gonna pay for that!"" With an angry voice, while the culprit responded with a ""Sorry."" at the same time. Aono however didn't realized it was a girl who bumped into him. And she wasn't just a girl, she was a duelist!
A smile appeared on Aono's face, as he grabbed the arm of the girl.
""You dropped my cigarette. Normally I wouldn't be so nice, but for you... I have a challenge."" Aono said, as he let go of her arm.
""Beat me in a duel right here right now, and I will forgive you. Lose, and you will buy me a new pack of cigarettes once we arrived at the location."" He said, readying his duel disk, with the same smile still on his face.
""Deal?"" He said.</div>"

Who knew that he had airsickness? He never wanted to go through the long hours of nausea and dry heaving into a bag ever again. Well, it was over now, and that was something to be grateful for. 

Stretching his muscles, he grabbed his luggage from the luggage area and headed over to the exit. According to the instructions he was given, he would know where to go once he saw it. <span class=""bb-i"">Huh, how vague. Oh well,</span> he thought as he walked.

Going out the exit, he scanned the area for where he should go. The group of limos outside certainly caught his attention, and the glowing green sign with his name on it was the clincher. He was heading over when something else caught his attention. He turned his head to see two other Duelists, one of which appeared to be challenging the other. For a second Alexander was tempted to let it go and watch them have a go, but then he decided that it was probably best to break it up and carry on.

""Hey there! What's going on here?"" Alexander shouted to them in a joyful tone, as if greeting old friends. He walked up to them and asked, ""You two here for the tourney too?"" Not waiting for an answer, he continued, ""Great, but let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Save your strength when we actually face each other. Besides, the limos are here, and we need to get going. At the very least, put it off until we get there.""
---
Michelle was nervous. It was her first time doing such a thing. She was originally excited for the tournament, but now that excitement had worn off, and she was worried she might do something wrong, or worse, get lost. Getting her luggage, she headed for the exit and wondered where she needed to go. The limos with the green signs definitely gave a clue, and she headed over to them, looking at the seemingly emotionless and robotic drivers, then went into one of the limos. 

She had to admit, it was a lot better than she anticipated. She opened a compartment in a limo and was pleasantly surprised to see it was a fridge filled with food and drinks, a lot of which she liked. She opened another compartment and saw more snacks, as well as a remote control. Taking out the remote, she wondered what it was for, and she pushed the power button to see. A TV screen came down from the roof of the limo, and a selection of playbacks from previous tournaments came up. Well, this was <span class=""bb-i"">much</span> better than she anticipated.</div>"

""Not now,"" Jackson P. Dubois replied in an irritated tone.  ""I'm sleeping.""
""Sir,"" the woman insisted, ""we have another flight to make.  You have to leave now.""  
Jack turned over in his seat, clearly ignoring the woman.  A response to which she violently poked him in the ribs.  ""Now!""
""Fine, fine, I'm getting up."" Jack grumbled, picking up his bags and making way to the ramp.  ""You're worse than my mother.""
Outside the plane now, Jack's sleep filled eyes tried desperately to adjust to the bright desert sunlight, to no avail.  It's was an altogether painful experience.
<span class=""bb-i"">Where was I?</span> Jack wondered in the mean time, struggling to remember what it was he was doing.  There were people on a plane.  Had he gone to Egypt?  No, that wasn't right, that was several years ago.  The air was too dry for it to have been South American, so Mexico was no good either.  ""Oh, no, not the Saudis again.  Hey, you there!"" Jack shouted at the nearest people to him, a small cluster of teenagers with duel disks.  ""Remind me where we are.""</div>"

She was nervous and most of her time in the plane was spent trying to calm herself down but to no avail. A mix of emotions were rushing inside of her during the ride, one of fear and the other of excitement. She and her parents had visited neighboring countries before but America? It was all new to her, but if anything, her father said that it's a great country full of sights. When the plane had landed, Miwa's doubts began to resurface once more.

Those doubts began to fade as the girl surveyed her surroundings. She could see tons of duelists are far as the eye can see, some local and the others coming from various different countries, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""At least it won't be lonely...""</span></span>. As she looked on the airport she noticed a group of men with a list of hovering names in them, no doubt listing the participants of the tournament. Walking over with her luggage, Miwa checked the list and found her name!

Sighing heavily, the girl entered the limousine.
----
For Kenta, the trip on the way to the airport was exciting, to say the least. He had never been to another country before, and he certainly didn't have planned it to be America of all places! He had only known the country from his textbooks and what his History teacher taught his class, but even then, it was all about stuff that had happened in the past. When the plane had landed, a big grin adorned his face as he eagerly exited.

Even though it was still the airport, the boy's excitement got the best of him and he was looking all around. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""If this is what their airports look like then I can't wait to see the rest!"".</span></span> As he wandered to and fro-not even worrying about being lost-he saw a bunch of sharply-dressed men near a pair of limousines. The boy repeated that thought in his mind, limousines. He couldn't believe it! To think that someone like him would be able to experience luxury, in the form of a car!

Making his way to the men, he noticed a list of hovering names coming from a bunch of holograms. Thinking that this might be the listing for the tournament, he leaned in to get a closer look and upon closer inspection his name was right there! Pumping his fist in the air, he muttered <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yes!""</span></span> under his breath and took a seat in the limo. Life is good.</div>"

Fubuki turned her head as the man she had bumped into grabbed her arm. The stature of the man was a bit foreboding, but he seemed to have been pretty aggravated about her bumping into him.

""A pack of cigarettes...?"" she asked quietly as she silently tried to move away. No wait, this man was asking for a duel It was the perfect time to let her test her new deck. Silently switching out her normal deck for the test deck, Fubuki moved to accept before another person intervened in response. Something about everyone being in the tournament... So he was involved as well?

""Yeah.. you heard me right, C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E-S. You know, the things you smoke? You just ruined my last one, so you gotta pay if you lose"" Aono said mockingly to Fubuki, a sly smile on his face. ""Me and this lady are going to have a duel... like it or not."" he said, turning towards Alexander with an irritated look on his face. ""Your beating can wait till the tournament..."" he continued, signaling for Alexander to go away.

""I know what a cigarette is."" she said coolly, brushing the hair in front of her face aside. ""I still refuse to buy cigarettes, seeing as how I'm a minor and all. I will, however, take you up on that duel.""

Activating her Duel Disk, Fubuki moved into an open area nearby. ""Since I seem to have done you wrong here, you should have the first move.""

""Oh.. in that case I could perhaps smoke one of your cards after smoking you?"" Aono asked mockingly with the same sly smile as before, drawing his cards from his deck. ""Normally I would say ladies first, but you damaged my property, so I will go first then."" He said with a more serious tone, as he drew another card from his deck. ""The name is Aono by the way. Aono Kyra."" He calmly stated, as he placed a monster card face-down. ""Lets see how you can dance!"" He shouted out with a relaxed voice, trying to make the duel less awkward.

""Erm... Alright. My turn. Draw."" Fubuki said, taking a card from her deck and glancing at her hand.  

""I summon Kuribandit in attack mode."" she stated, playing the card. A little Kuriboh with a headband and an eyepatch materialized on the field in front of her.  

""Well isn't that a cute little critter."" He mockingly said, looking at the Kuribandit in front of him.  

""Kuribandit. Attack the facedown card."" she continued, ignoring Aono's remarks.

""Sorry my lady, you will regret that!"" He claimed, as his card flipped over, making a mysterious warrior appear.  

""Meet D.D. Warrior. She will drag your cute little Kuribandit into the void!"" He said with a sly smile on his face as both cards disappeared. ""If you surrender now, a kiss on my cheek will be enough."" he said, testing the will of his opponent  

Fubuki sighed and shook her head. She messed up- she should've just left Kuribandit to let her activate it's effect. Oh well. Setting two cards from her hand face down, she motioned for her opponent to continue. 

""Well then.. My turn, Draw... Uhm... Alright..."" he said, looking at his newly drawn card, thinking for a while.  ""I'll guess I will just do this then."" he said calmly as he placed another monster card face-down.  ""Hereby I end my turn.. Lady... Lady... You haven't introduced yourself yet, what is your name?"" Aono asked with a gentle voice while ending his turn. 

""Fubuki. Fubuki Motorei."" Fubuki responded, drawing a card from her deck.

""Alright Fubuki.. Nice to meet you. Lets see what you got."" Aono stated in turn.

""I summon Raiden in attack mode."" she said, playing the card from her hand as the monster materialized on the field. ""I activate Raiden's effect. I'll mill two cards from my deck, and if there are any Lightsworn monsters among them Raiden gains 200 point in attack.""

""Ah, I see.. you are playing Lightsworn then... I have beaten a lot of those guys, it gets a bit tedious after a while."" Aono said mockingly. 

Fubuki silently sent two cards from her deck to the Graveyard. A Patrulea and... Reasoning. Darn. ""I'll attack your facedown card with Raiden, then."" she said, a small smile on her lips as she directed the monster to attack Aono's facedown card. 

""It seems you fell for my trap again... This time you used your effect first... Nice move."" He said, as he revealed his face-down, D.D. Assailant. A mysterious looking lady appeared with a big sword in her hand, dragging both herself and Raiden into the void, as both cards got banished. ""That's a pity, now you can't use him for the summoning of your Judgment Dragon."" he laughed. 

""You didn't see the Patrulea...?"" she asked herself before motioning back to Aono.

""Alright then Miss Fubuki... Let's see you handle this!"" Aono shouted as he drew another card. ""It's time for the true power of the Goblin Black Ops!"" he claimed, playing Goblin Black Ops in Attack Position. The same sly smile appears on Aono's face again, as he points towards Fubuki, making Goblin Black Ops charging Fubuki. Fubuki winced as the goblins all mobbed her, smacking her once before returning to their original position.

""Well, you are lucky, as my Goblin Black Ops gets switched to defense mode, making him vulnerable."" he smiled as his Goblin Black Ops switched to defense mode. ""After I take you out, Perhaps I could... Take you out for a date?"" he asked with a mysterious tone in his voice, not making it clear if he is actually serious or if he is just joking, as he makes the signal with his hand ending his turn.

""No thanks."" Fubuki smiled, a cold chill emanating from her face as she drew her card. Well, this could work.

""I activate the effect of Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos. By sending it and one Fire monster to the grave, I can destroy one card on the field."" she explained, sending it and her newly-drawn Infernoid Piaty to the graveyard. ""And my target? Your Goblin Black Ops.""

A giant pillar of flames immediately engulfed the monster, incinerating it into nothingness.

""Not my poor Goblin Black Ops! You shall be missed, young goblins!"" he said with a dissapointed look on his face.

""That's all for me. I end my turn."" she stated, motioning for Aono to continue.

""About the date... I was just kidding. Unless you want to give it a go, I guess. I wouldn't mind getting to know such an interesting person."" he said with a charming smile as he drew another card. 

""No response."" Fubuki said, glaring at him for his lecherous speech patterns.

Aono started to smile as he placed another monster in Attack Position. ""Meet Mataza the Zapper. This baddy won't attack you once, but twice!"" he stated as he started to laugh. 

""No thanks. I activate my facedown card, Breakthrough Skill!"" Fubuki responded. ""I'll negate the effect of Mataza, thank you very much.""

""Aww come on... couldn't you at least let me have fun for once?"" He complained, as he forced his Mataza to attack the opponent. Fubuki winced as Mataza's blade sliced through her, lowering her Life Points even further. He was still at 8000 and she at... 5400? 

""Well... You know, you don't have to answer right now. You will have enough time to think about a potential time the coming weeks."" he said with the same old smile back on his face. ""Well it's your turn again... Play your cards wisely, or else you will end up losing this turn!"" he boasted, as he started to laugh, ending his turn. 

""My turn. Draw."" Fubuki said, a grin forming on her face. ""Funny you should say that, actually..."" 

""Oh... You are finally going to attack me this turn?"" Aono said jokingly. 

""Probably, yes. I activate Reasoning! I assume you know the effect, so call your number."" 

""Of course I do.. I've battled so many of those copy and paste Lightsworn decks- I know most of your monsters are Level 4... so I declare Level 4!"" He shouted, hoping that Fubuki would get a Level 4 soon. 

Fubuki smiled as she began to mill cards from the top of her deck. Infernoid, Infernoid, Monster Gate, more Infernoids... 

""That was like... 10 cards so far... I guess you ran out of luck?"" he asked, flashing that same sly smile again. 

And then a Kuribandit. Funny she should run into it again. ""I'll Special Summon Kuribandit in Attack Mode, since it was different from the level of the Monster you called."" Fubuki stated before continuing. 

""Well... at least you have some luck there... After milling all those monsters... Wait a second, those aren't Lightsworns?!"" Aono exclaimed, noticing that he wasn't actually facing Lightsworns at all. 

""I activate the effect of Infernoid Piaty. By banishing two Infernoid monsters from my hand or Graveyard, I can Special Summon it to my side of the field."" Fubuki said, banishing Infernoid Patrulea and Infernoid Antra from her Graveyard. ""I shall also activate the effect of Infernoid Attondel, which lets me Special Summon it from the Graveyard by the same effect. Last but not least, I'll Special Summon Blaster from the grave by banishing another two Fire monsters from the Graveyard. Luckily, all Infernoids are Fire, so that isn't much of a problem."" she stated, banishing two more Patrulea, a Harmadik and Piaty to summon both of those monsters onto her side of the field. 

""Battle Phase. I attack your Mataza with Attondel. Response?"" 

Aono stared at Fubuki in disbelief, his mouth agape as he shook his head no. Smirking, Fubuki's eyes flashed light blue for a split second before she continued on.

""Nothing? Alright, I activate the effect of Infernoid Attondel. If it destroys a monster by battle, it can attack once again during this Battle Phase. I attack with Attondel, then Piaty, then Blaster. Game set and match. Good try, though."" Fubuki smiled as she returned all of her cards back to her Deck. 

Aono stood there silently for about a minute, processing what just happened, before he began to talk again. ""Well, Miss Fubuki.. It was a honor to duel you. I hope to see you see again. I don't know if it will be in the Palace, the tournament itself or a date.. You never know what happens."" He said, before winking at Fubuki, returning to his sly smile, as he walked away entered the limousine he was supposed to sit it, still surprised by that combo of Fubuki's.

Fubuki sighed and shook her head. Too close. Definitely too close. If she hadn't drawn into Reasoning, that Duel could've gone sour really quickly. Returning her Duel Disk to it's default position, Fubuki turned and noticed a boy asking for a location.

""Erm... We're in Regno Ricco... In America..."" she said warily before bowing her head.

""Excuse me."" Fubuki followed before moving into a limousine, making sure not to pick the one that strange Aono fellow had entered earlier.

----
Joseph smiled as another person entered the limousine he was sitting in, waving to him as he took a seat nearby. A male. Phew. He could be a bit more relaxed around other guys. Though, he seemed to ba Japanese in origin. Interesting.

""Hey, nice to meet you. Name's Joseph. Joseph Marshall."" he said, taking the initiative and extending his free hand towards the guy. ""Given that you're here, I expect we'll be seeing a lot of each other for a while.""</div>"

After all, he was an exceptionally strange fellow.  Might as well run with it, he thought.

But the tournament, yes, that was where he was.  Things made sense now, and blurred memories began to clear. Rengo Rico, a city where dreams could be made.  The game was now, most certainly afoot.

  ""Been awake far too long,"" he explained to the young lady who had answered his question.  ""Quiet disoriented."" he continued, following her now into the limousine.  ""My name is Jack, Jack DuBois.  Yourself?""</div>"

First he gets a mere slip of letter of invitation, then it leads him all the way to some area like Las Vegas or Macau. ""A duel monsters tournament... in a place like this, don't tell me I have to fork out millions of dollars or a hand just to play in this game... And how did that 'Khan' guy even know me in the first place?"" Ryo hissed in confusion over the whole scenario, but a thing like this ain't rather surprising, considering that his parents have recently gone MIA a few months back. Still, he decided not to decline the invitation as he wanted to find out more about the tournament, and its a fun &amp; once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to gamble against professionals.

Expectedly, all kinds of people are at a place like this, there're auras of people around which his millennium eye perceives as pure black, which he wondered what kind of acts they are not capable of doing, probably none.

His duel disk, and his deck of cards are placed in his bag, walking towards the limousine he's assigned to. He noticed someone with a strange aura, something that consists of a color he've never seen before. ""Just who is that person..."" Ryo entered the Limousine, turning on his PSVita, playing while waiting for the trip ^^</div>"

Waving to him in a friendly manner as he took a seat nearby, in return he too gave a small wave. Upon closer inspection, he deduced that the boy seemed to be American, his facial features seem to imply that. This was confirmed when the boy introduced himself in English, a subject that Kenta wasn't particularly good at, and while he did understand him introducing himself, the second string of words he said flew over his head. Not wanting to be rude, the boy extended his hand to his and gave it a little shake, and with the best of his English abilities, he tried to respond to the young man.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Ah, Kenta. Kenta Hamasaki! Its...nice to meet...you too!""</span></span> There were some awkward pauses in there as the boy tried to converse with the other. He gave a short bow in front of him after introducing himself and lowered his head as he tried to explain that he cannot understand some of the words he said.</div>"

Well, she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but it felt like there was more to him than he put on airs about. It probably wasn't nice to be suspicious about otherd, but after that incident with that Aono character...

""It was no problem to me at all..."" she said, swapping out her regular deck in for her Infernoids. Though the deck did have a lot of kill potential, the cards didn't exactly... ""Mesh"" with her well. Of course, her regular deck was the one for her.

------
Joseph smiled and let out a nervous laugh as Kenta introduced himself and attempted to explain the situation between himself and the English language. Though it was a bit broken, what Joseph caught here and there was good enough to form a picture in his mind of the dilemma he had accidentally presented to the boy.

""Ah, I'm sorry. Got way too overexcited there. Sadly, I can't speak Japanese at all so you'll have to look elsewhere for that. But I hope we can get along all the same"" he said, firmly shaking Kenta's hand as he reached into the mini-fridge and pulled out a soda for Kenta. Extending his arm, Joseph smiled.

""You want?"" he asked, tilting the unopened bottle towards Kenta.</div>"

Oh well, at least the Duel was entertaining. Satisfied that the conflict was coming to an end, he said, ""Wonderful! An excellent display of tactics!"" He then turned around and headed for the limos, turning his back and waving. ""Meet you guys at the tournament!"" 

Alexander entered a limo, and found someone else already inside. The boy had an interesting eyepatch, and Alexander wondered what he was playing. ""Hey there, nice to meet ya. Name's Alexander,"" Alexander introduced himself to Ryo. Without pause, he opened a compartment in the limo and found a bag of chips. Taking it and opening the bag, he pulled out a chip and offered it to Ryo. ""Want one?"" he asked.</div>"

Something which he was happy for, even with the language barrier making things difficult for them. The other boy promptly explained that he cannot speak in his language, much like Kenta cannot speak theirs. It seems that aside from strong duelists, the English language will be one of the boy's challenges.

As Joseph apologized for his excitement and hoping that they can get along nonetheless. Besides, there was bound to be more Japanese duelists like himself, he was sure of it! With a tournament this big after all. With the thought in his mind, Kenta became excited once more...Eager to start battling others. Meanwhile, the boy he was with offered him a soda and he happily accepted, taking a few sips from the beverage.

Deciding that getting to know him better would provide a boost, he tried to ask a few questions of his own. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""You duelist, correct? What...deck you use?""</span></span> he asked Joseph.</div>"

But at his age, reminiscing about childhood was kind of... Stupid, to be quite honest. But that was irrelevant. Now was the time for a meet and greet, and so he continued on. Kenta's question wasn't really unexpected, to be honest- they were all there to Duel, after all. It was only natural to respond to such a question.

""Er... How to explain my deck...? It's a Star Seraph Satellarknight deck, to put it one way or another. I run the Star Seraph engine because it gives draw power..."" he trailed off before stopping. His explanation would probably fly right over Kenta's head. There was probably a simpler way to... Oh, there was always that.

Taking out his deck from its position on his Duel Disk, Joseph used an open seat near him as a platform to sort his deck out by monsters, spells and traps. The images alone would probably bridge the gap. The deck was also quite popular in Japan, if he recalled correctly, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to assume he would recognize it.

""What about you?"" he asked in turn as he waited for Kenta to look over his deck.</div>"

Goodness, I hope it's the first.  This conversation will be altogether more interesting if you aren't a moron.</span>  ""Tell me, Fubuki, is this your first tournament?

All of this was far too complex for him to understand and he stared on with a blank expression and his mouth agape. And what's this <span class=""bb-i"">""Star Seraph""</span> he was mentioning? Is it some sort of new archetype? The boy thought to himself. And what was it's relation to the <span class=""bb-i"">""tellarknight""</span> archetype? He wondered.

Fortunately for him, Joseph had realized what he had done and instead of telling Kenta more of his deck. He decided to show it to him instead. He looked on as the other boy took out his deck and began to show the contents within. At first he was still more or less confused, but once the pictures became clear, so did everything else.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Star...Seraph?

""Er... That name doesn't ring a bell at all. But if that's what they're called in Japan, then I can't really argue."" Joseph said, quickly compiling his deck back into a single stack and shuffling them all together multiple times over. ""I started building the deck after a famous Duelist visited my father's restaurant. It's a place that's very famous for catering to duelists, and it just so happened that he was there one day. He was pretty nice, giving me some pointers and all... Then he gave me this."" he continued, pulling out Constellarknight Diamond from his Extra Deck.

So it was gift, how touching. It made Kenta a little envious as his friends-Duelists or not-never really gave him a card, something that he would treasure as well. When Joseph had finished his little story he asked Kenta the same question he gave him earlier.

The boy scratched the back of his head, trying to explain that his deck would be no match against Joseph's. But, after a while he finally gathered the courage to search his bag and show his deck. Pulling out the stack of cards, he handed it over to boy.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""It...It's not much, but I use Gladiator Beasts!

Fubuki stated, staring at Jack with cold eyes. ""You can certainly drop your act now, correct?""

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
Joseph took Kenta's deck from his hand and looked over it carefully. Gladiator Beasts, huh? That was an archetype he hadn't heard about in a while.

""More attention? You've teched in two Tenki, which means you're already quite aware of how well Fire Fists have helped boost Beast-Warriors up in the standings. I would suggest running three to make drawing into it a bit more often, but..."" Joseph mused to himself before returning the deck to Kenta.

""It's a pretty strong rogue deck with the ability to recycle negation with Chariot, but I think you could add some more options with a Wolfbark tech and some more rank 4s. If you'd like, I could help fix your deck up or something in the future. Who knows, maybe you'll be the one standing on top of the world?"" he said before taking another sip of his soda.

""I must say, it was a game you played phenomenally well.  However, that was only the opening.  I imagine there will be much more to developed in the future, and from this point forth, I will agree to play it straight with you.""

Jack changed his posture, leaning back in his seat and crossing his legs comfortably.  He even went so far as to fold his hands behind his head.

""But I digress,"" he continued, ""I am not your enemy here, Fubuki, so relax.  You've shown yourself worthy of my respect, so I'm happy to give you that much. Besides, I'm hardly anything to be afraid of,"" Jack laughed at himself.  ""I really didn't even have any idea where I was earlier when the plane landed.""

When he made a mention of helping him fix his deck sometime soon, the boy gave him a big and wide smile. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""You...You would...do that?""</span></span> There was a rush of giddy happiness evident in his face, he would love it if someone helped him tune his deck, Kenta in turn asked if there was anything he could do for the other boy, all the while still muttering words of thanks and praise. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""If there was...way I could repay you, then I give!""</span></span>

Oops, there goes his English again, but in this state it would arguably understandable. On top of the world? Could he really win this one? Maybe not even 1st place, as long as he got somewhere. All of this is just making the boy elated and eager to start the tournament proper. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Do you think we are close?""</span></span> He asked.</div>"

Fubuki sighed, leaning away from Jack's face as he moved in. ""This may just be a game for you, but to me it's a bit more than that. I hope you understand.""

Turning her gaze away, Fubuki took a small bottle of water from the mini-fridge and began to drink from it. The arid heat of the region was still enough to suck the moisture from her body, even if the limo was air-conditioned. Being more or less stuck in a limousine with such an odd fellow... Well, it didn't sit well with her from the start. It felt like this Jack was being a tad more honest, but... She still wasn't sure what to think of him, if at all.

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
Joseph smiled at Kenta's enthusiasm, especially given the circumstances. But really, to not have anyone else to help refine his deck...? That was pretty sad, in all honesty. The game was more fun with more people, and the only way to get better was by testing yourself over and over.

Well, the second part was half right. The only reason he had come to his current deck was because he had gotten destroyed by all of the Duelists that frequented his father's store. 'Blood, sweat and tears' would definitely be an apt description of what he went through to get to this point. But he had made a lot of acquaintances along the way, so getting trounced repeatedly wasn't all that bad.

""Yeah, sure. I'd be perfectly happy helping you fix up that deck."" Joseph said with a smile before Kenta's words of repayment came out.

""Ah... There's no need to repay me or anything. All I really want is a good showing from you during the tournament, alright?"" he continued, glancing out the tinted glass windows of the limo they were in.

""You know... I'm honestly not really sure where in the city we're headed. We've been moving for a while, but..."" he trailed off before shrugging. ""Oh well, can't be helped. Why, you eager to get this tournament started?""</div>"

Jack asked.  ""This tournament.  If it isn't just a game to you, then what is it that you have at stake?""  

Jack grabbed a bottle from the fridge for himself and took a small sip.  

""I understand this might be too personal a question to ask, the circumstance of our acquaintance aside.  Let me know if I overstep my bounds.""  

It was strange, most people were so predictable, so boring.  Especially duelist.  It was a rarity for Jack to meet someone that he actually enjoyed talking to.  Yet, here he was genuinely enjoying himself.</div>"

""Either that guy is major idiot, or he was just testing his opponent out.."" She said to herself, looking at how he entered the limousine. ""Wait a second... its that guy who I gave that card years ago... And he uses a warrior deck? It must have been a fake deck.."" She said to herself, as she suddenly felt a weird presence behind her. After waiting for a while, she noticed it was somebody with a mysterious eye... and out of all limousines, he is entering the same limousine as her!
""This will get interesting!"" She said to herself, as she continued walking to the limousine, noticing somebody else enter the limousine as her. ""Damnit.. lets hope he won't ruin my plan..."" She said to herself, as she entered the limousine, noticing that that the second guy was offering a chip to the first one. As she sat down, she spoke up to the first guy.
""I don't know what it is about you that makes me have interest you.. But I want to duel you right here, right now!"" She said, looking Ryo straight into the eyes, putting her alt deck in front of her on the table.
""That is... if you dare to duel me!"" She said, with a mockingly tone in her voice.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Aono entered the limousine, he didn't even notice somebody else was sitting in there, and he place both feet on the table, as he grabbed a bottle of vodka next to him, starting to drink it a bit.
""That sure was an interesting duel.... I wonder what would happen if I would have used this guy..."" He said to himself, loud enough for the other person to hear, while he was looking at his Void Ogre Dragon which he grabbed from his deck</div>"

He was in the process of a boss battle, thus a split second of mistake would cause his characters to die and restart from save point. Pausing the game, he turned to look at Alexander, taking the chip he offered. ""Thanks, name's Ryo~"" Ryo bit on the potato chip, unpausing his game as he took another piece of potato chip right from Alexander's packet. <span class=""bb-i"">'He seemed pretty decent from his color~'</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">What the heck?</span> Ryo looked up to see what all the commotion was about. It was the girl that he saw earlier, with a stranger aura as compared to the rest. <span class=""bb-i"">Sooo... the color purple stands for mental retardation...</span> He thought as he facepalmed in response to this awkward situation. He turned his attention back to the game, only to see a ""GAME OVER"" on his PSVita screen.

""Tsk... Miss, you should've learnt a bit more manners..."" Ryo turned off his Gameboy, stuffing it back into his schoolbag while taking his deck of cards out of the bag, slamming it onto the glass table that was in the middle of the limousine. ""If I win, I get your share of snacks of the minibar; If you win, you get my share of snacks. Also... something fun shall happen to the loser ^_^ "" He made a playful but mischievous smile while he shuffled his deck, sitting crosslegged beside the small glass table.

""Sooo... shall we start?"" He replied with his preshuffled deck has been placed on the table, the atmosphere around the table having a slight, grey tint that can only be seen amongst the players. To the spectators, a shadow game looks more like an ordinary tabletop duel, without holograms &amp; shitz~</div>"

He let out a happy shout and repeatedly pumped his fist in the air, all the while exclaiming <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Yeah!""</span></span>. Best of all, he didn't even have to repay the guy, although he could find a way to later on. But right now, his focus was on both the tournament and looking forward to Joseph's help.

When he had asked him if he was eager to get started, he simply nodded back and forth. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I wish trip was...shorter.""</span></span> He could barely contain his excitement, his own enthusiasm would probably get the best of him but, who cares? <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Being...pumped is natural.

For quite a long while Miwa was all alone in the limousine, she was getting bored and frankly, she would've liked some company. After all, it's a worldwide tournament, it puzzled her as to why she's the only one in this particular limousine. Was it the way she looked? Maybe the way she smelled? She could've sworn she sprayed some perfume on earlier...

Thankfully, the girl's prayers were answered as another person joined her! He looked like a rather rugged-looking young man, Miwa looked on warily on the man near her. His appearance gave her the impression that he was a delinquent of sorts...Punks they called them, this made the girl uneasy to be in the same vicinity as him and she did not speak, lest her life be endangered.

Although, that suspicion was removed entirely from her mindset when he took out a card from his deck. The girl scooting over to where he was glanced over to the card, although her English skills aren't perfect, her parents didn't spend a fortune for her to just waste it...With her lessons still fresh in her mind, she read the card's name as...<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Void...Ogre...Dragon?""</span></span> The girl muttered <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Oh no...""</span></span>from under her breath, as she quickly scooted over back to her original seat.</div>"

I'm not going to lay all my cards out on the table that easily."" Fubuki said, a small smirk on her face. It was a battle of intellectuals in this limousine, and both of them were carefully calculating their moves. It was as entertaining as a duel, trying to outwit one another.

Well, that's how duels usually went, right? It was a battle of resources, and whoever managed to deplete the enemy's first won.

""So I believe we should leave that topic aside. After all, you've got your own motivations to be here, correct?""

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
""Er... Yeah, I guess you could say I'm pumped for this. In a way. I'm excited, certainly. Not even for the tournament itself, but also the city we're in. I mean, you've gotten a free trip to one of the most famous cities in America- Dueling isn't everything in life, after all. That doesn't mean it isn't a big part of it, though."" Joseph said as the limousine they were in began to slow down near the Palace they were slated to get to.

""Huh. Well. I guess that's what happens when you leave early, right? Missed the worst of the traffic, I think."" he said, finishing off the rest of his soda and looking at the Palace from inside the limousine. It was large. He knew mansions were usually large, but this... This was on a different scale by itself.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Such a strong defense.  You love playing the game more than you realize, don't you Fubuki?</span>

Wow, they got to get into limo's and everything. Moros had never even seen a Limousine before only heard of them. Woah it looked like there were a lot of other duelists here, at least one of them would probably be friendly right? Moros scanned the crowd and saw a well dressed man carrying a hologram thingy with his name. Presumably he was supposed to go over there and get in one of the fancy cars. However it looked like he was already late as most of the duelists had all ready gotten into vehicles. He quickly picked up his bag and ran over to his limo, almost causing his headphones to fall out. He opened the door to find a real tough guy looking guy examining one of his cards, a void ogre, and a real shy looking girl on the other side. Moros was going to ask the big guy to move over but the girl looked like she was kind of scared of him for some reason. ""Let me just squeeze through here big guy."" He said grinning in a friendly fashion as he carefully sidled past him. As he got into his seat he looked around, ""Wow they have a lot of cool stuff in here, ohhh looky this, a TV and free food."" Moros said excitedly as he grabbed some food from the fridge and turned the TV on.</div>"

""Oh... I didn't notice you sitting there... Wait a second, where are my manners.."" He mummbled out loud, as he put the flask of vodka next to him on the table. ""The name is Aono.. "" Aono tried to say, as another guy just entered the limousine, walking past Aono, sitting next to him.
""So yeah.. Sorry for me not noticing at you first."" He said with a gentle smile.
""Damn... there goes my opportunity to get a chick.."" He thought to himself, as he looked towards the guy who just sat next to him.
""And yeah, I'm digging the free stuff here too.. This vodka is quite good!"" He claimed, as he took another sip.
""So how come you guys are here too, you guys are duelists too i guess?"" He asked with a gentle tone in his voice.</div>"

There would be more to say, but now was hardly the time.  After all, they had only just met.  

Instead, Jack peered through the the limo's shaded window, observing the Rengo Rico streets.  Crowded and busy even in the daytime hours, this city never stopped moving.  He imagined what powers lurked behind the doors of the large and luxurious clubs and casinos: how many throats had to be cut for these men to stand on top of the world?

The duelist, however, would be safe from the dangers of Rengo Rico politics, at least for now.  Their host, the elusive Khan, had quite the reputation in these parts of the world.  Jack needed to learn more.

Jack could see the mansion drawing nearer and nearer, the had finally arrived.  They called it a mansion, anyway.  A palace.  A grand home for a man of great wealth.

Jack suspected he knew better.  It was no mansion, but a castle.  Nothing else would do for a man who surely thought himself to be a king.

""It looks like we're here,"" he told Fubuki after a long silence.  ""Best gather up your things.""</div>"
2041,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 05:30:00,DreadPirate,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><img src=""http://www.paris-tours-service.com/upload/versailles-night-tour.jpg""/>

The limo rolled down it's windows as it arrived at Shambala palace and pulled up to the front gate. A hologram projected from the small box on the brick next to the gate emitting a Winged Kuriboh who seemingly flew around the limo peering in the now open windows. Then after it did a full lap retreated into the small box it came from. The gates opened and the limo drove up the long driveway passed the beautifully lit courtyard and up to the front steps. The Limousine doors swung open gracefully on their own. The driver nowhere to be found however there was a small green disk on the driver seat. 

The gigantic doors intricately detailed with hieroglyphs that depict some sort of feast was opened from the inside by two massive battle steers. They snort and gesture inward into a magnificent dining hall lined wall to wall with duel monster statues, paintings, miniature holograph simulations of the greatest duels of all time. Harpie Lady Sisters swoop from the skies providing food and beverage that is wanted while a dark Magician Girl guides duelists to their chairs. Which are leather reclining chairs, with built in massage, cup holder, deck holder, and all the other works you could want. However there is an empty chair to accompany your own, and that seems to be the case for everybody. 

The floor appears to glow under the feet of the seemingly real duel monsters. An Amazoness Tiger struts around flaring it's nostrils, Gemini Elves that are skimpily dressed seem to be flirting with the patrons, Time Wizard hops around refilling drinks and restocking food, An Obnoxious Celtic Guard plays the piano at a self-explanatory level of volume (Obnoxiously loud), and finally Command Knight donning a tuxedo and slicked back hair is singing to a band of rag tag duel monsters in wannabe Zayne Lewton fashion. A massive area of the hall is empty however towards the back of the room there is an empty space with bare floor and no decor on the walls. However original dueling platforms used in the Duelist Kingdom Tournament are mounted to the wall high above the floor.</div>"

Jack mused at the spectacle.

<span class=""bb-i"">Predictable</span>, he thought.  

Jack picked up his bag, a small back-pack, an exited the limo.  He offered out his hand to Fubuki in a gentlemanly fashion. <span class=""bb-i"">But of course, you'll help your self out, won't you?</span></div>"
2043,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 10:50:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Fubuki quietly broke off the conversation as Jack took his time staring out at the city. There was no more to say- simple as that. The city was quite lively, though- definitely a far cry from her hometown. As the limousine she was in rolled up to the palace, Fubuki... Well, to be blunt she wasn't impressed. Period. It was thematically fitting, at least, but that's where her admiration stopped. She had tried doing some research on the host of the tournament, but to no avail. It unnerved her- how could someone so extravagant retain such a low profile, especially given his contacts with Industrial Illusions?

It felt wrong.

But her own inquiries would have to wait for a later time. The limo doors opened on their own, which, though strange, wasn't all that jarring. Jack had left first and extended his hand out to her.

""It's only fair to return his courtesy, if he's being so polite..."" she mused to herself as she took hold of her luggage and, after a bit of hesitation, Jack's hand as she exited the limo. It was weird, given their initial meeting, but she wasn't about to show herself as an ungrateful individual this soon.

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
Joseph stared in wonder as the limo pulled up to the Palace gates, wonder in his eyes at how extravagant the presentation was. There was no way he'd ever see something this big unless he was watching it on the TV. Seeing it in person just made it all the more amazing, honestly. As the limo pulled to a stop, Joseph took his luggage and stepped out of the limo, taking in a breath of fresh air as he waited for Kenta.

""Waitin' on you, man."" he said, a bright smile drawn across his face as he eagerly waited for his new acquaintance to come along.</div>"
2044,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 11:18:00,Cam,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">In his travels, Jack had learned that every interaction was significant.  You could learn a lot about a person by how they reacted to you.  Not disappointed in the slightest with her response, Jack helped the young lady to her feet.  A lesser person would have been too proud, too desperate to prove their own strength and independence to have accepted his aid there.  It was a subtle play, but an important one.  Fubuki was in a higher class than most, indeed.

Jack had suspected this might have been the case from their conversation in the limo, but still, he wanted to be certain.  

""I should have given you a lot more credit from the start,"" Jack apologized.  ""Please forgive me, I have the habit of assuming everyone is a moron until they prove otherwise.""

But she didn't really seem to be listing at this point.  There was something in her expression; concern, perhaps?  She appeared to be eyeing the palace gates.

""I'm not judging you at this point,"" he said rather bluntly, as it was indeed the truth.  ""Tell me what's on your mind.""</div>"
2045,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 12:08:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Fubuki remained silent as she stared on at the gates of the Palace before sighing. Gathering information on her own would probably dredge up little information, if any. She needed more details- everything here seemed too convenient. For all of this to fall into place... There had to be more to it than that, after all. Before her train of thought could continue further, Jack had interjected with his own comments.

Right, she wasn't alone here. He was older than she, so there was a chance he knew more about the situation. If not that, then maybe he could help her search. His actions, too, felt more sincere. Turning to Jack, Fubuki began to speak, this time a bit more openly. Maybe she was being a tad naive, but there was a chance he could help uncover some information she was missing.

""It's strange, don't you think? How our gracious host is so rich and has all these connections, yet nobody knows anything about him?""

It was a passive remark, but the meaning was clear enough. It'd probably be written off as a harmless curiosity by the staff if overheatd, but the context made it clear enough.</div>"

Fubuki was sharp, and she knew well enough not to be too overt.  What a coincidence they had been brought together here and now.  He needed to learn more about this girl before he could give her his complete trust in this game of theirs.  

But, at least, they were already off to a start.

""But I'm sure that The Khan has a reason for the value his puts on his privacy.  Like you said earlier, we all have our own motivation for these things."" he said loudly enough for anyone who might like to hear.

But he leaned in a little closer and whispered, ""and I imagine you've just scratched the surface of mine.""

""Come on,"" he said in his normal volume once more, ""Let's go inside.""</div>"
2047,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 12:44:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Fubuki felt a shudder down her spine as Jack whispered to her. Maybe she had misjudged him. No, now wasn't the time for that. He was strange, yes, but he could see the atmosphere around him and react accordingly. Strange as he was, he could be a useful ally in the future. Hopefully.

That aside, standing out here all day would accomplish nothing for her. Maybe the inside of the palace would provide more clues.

""You do have a point there. I'd rather not be standing outside alone in this hot weather, after all."" she responded as she took her luggage and entered the building. The extravagance and grandeur of the banquet hall was, once again, quite predictable. It was also quite disturbing, seeing as there were skimpily dressed women all over the place. Upon closer inspection, they were Duel Monsters given a physical form. That kind of made it creepier, in a sense. After all, these were monsters that would be emitting murderous intent any other day of the week. To be served food and drinks by them... It was strange.

Well, she couldn't argue. At the very least, the monsters the Khan picked were thematically fitting, given the occasion they were there for. Following the Dark Magician Girl to her seat, Fubuki quietly sat down and took to examining her surroundings again. There was probably something sustaining the images of all these Monsters, after all. This was more an honest curiosity- her real search would have to wait for now.

Smiling, she watched as one of the monsters brought her some food on a plate. It seemed to be a simply-presented lamb chop. Huh. She hadn't tasted lamb before...</div>"

His second priority would be looking at all the sights America would have to offer, first would be dueling after all. As Joseph made a remark about something relating to traffic, he realized that they were near their destination. In the distance he could see it, calling it a mansion would be an understatement, it was more than that...The young boy pressed his face against the window in an attempt to get a closer look of palace.

When they were finally in the palace itself, Kenta could swear that his heart was about to burst from the excitement he was feeling. He could see a variety of duel monsters interacting with other people, the whole spectacle being mind-blowing for the boy, it looked more like an amusement park that catered to duelists.

Following after Joseph, he grabbed everything that he had packed and joined him. Eager to get the ball rolling.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Ironically for Miwa, it was her that had surprised the young man she was with, saying that he hadn't noticed her earlier and introduced himself as Aono, she muttered an apology from under her breath as the two quickly began to form a conversation. In turn, she gave her own introduction. Giving a small curtsy in front of the boy, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""My name is Miwa Nishimura, I suppose it's nice to meet you, Aono.""</span></span> said the girl. He seemed like a nice enough person, certainly not the delinquent she thought of him at first.

Their meeting was cut short when another boy entered the limousine and sat in between of her and Aono. He looked very happy, saying something about free food and entertainment. She couldn't deny it though, if the limousine was enough to leave an impression, what would the mansion of this guy look like? <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Vodka...Drinking is bad for your health you know.""</span></span> Miwa said, turning her attention to the young boy she was talking to earlier. Aono gently asked the two of them if they were duelists, she gave a nod and noticed that in the distance was the alleged meeting place.

As they got closer, the mansion she envisioned in her head had far exceeded her expectations...It was enormous! It looks like something straight out of an amusement park!! She stared in awe as different monsters from the game were present and out and about attending to the other patrons. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Guess we're here...""</span></span> Miwa said, getting out of the limousine with her luggage in hand. She looked back at the two boys she was with earlier, gesturing for them to make haste.</div>"

Fubuki was not his friend, he had no reason to share a table with her.  They just happened to share a ride is all.  

It was a precaution that had to be taken, just in case someone did happen to be watching the duelist.  There was no reason to give them anything to work with.  Jack was certain that she would understand.  

In the meantime, though, there was much to observe.  Duel monsters running all around, too and fro.  In this, something occurred to him.  As the time wizard dropped a glass of whiskey and soda in his hand, Jack had to ask himself, ""Where are all the people?""

Sure the hard-light holograms were a neat gimmick, and surely they would impress most who entered the hall, but surely there was a human staff somewhere running the show.

So, then, where the hell were they?

Jack made note of this thought and finished his drink in a single loud gulp.</div>"

The Duel Monsters they came across were definitely old-school- they were all cards he hadn't seen since... Well, forever. He remembered some old standbys reminiscing about 'Goat Format' in his restaurant- was it really that long ago?

Well, it didn't matter much. The monsters were moving, and the items they were bringing around were physical. That meant they were physical too, right?

""I wonder if I can get whatever the Khan is using for this stuff for our place back home? A few extra hands would probably help keep business going fast..."" he thought to himself as he and Kenta were led to their seats and brought a few plates of food. Standard American fare- steaks, salads, burgers... It all looked pretty good, but taste came first.

Taking a knife and a fork, Joseph cut off a piece of a steak and tasted it. It was... Alright. It was juicy and the inside was medium rare, so at least that was done correctly. But the seasoning was... A tad subpar.

Oh well. Free food was free food. His inner critic would have to bite it's tongue for now.</div>"

Me? Don't mess with me!"" She said with an angry tone in her voice, as she started shuffling her deck.
She listened to what Ryo had to say. ""Alright with me, winner gets the others snacks... as for the something fun... I can't wait."" She said with an evil smile on her face. ""Hmm... I wonder what his power in Shadow Dueling is? I have won my fair share of shadow duels.."" She thought, while shuffling her cards. ""I'll teach you what happens to those who joke around with the Bloodriver Family!"" She shouted, as she drew her hand of cards. As she was about to summon a monster in Attack Position, the limousine came to a stop. ""Well... I guess we are here then... Lets continue this duel in the future, same stakes!"" She said, with a suspicious smile, as she left the limousine, not caring about the others in the limousine at all. As she entered the huge palace, she was quite suprised with the interiors. 
""Wow... He sure knows how to impress people!"" She thought to himself, noticing that there are dueling monsters all over the place.
""Alright... I gotta keep my head cool, remember why you are here Emily..."" She said to herself, as she was looking around, until she found a certain guy sitting alone. ""Perfect!"" She thought to herself, as she walked up to the seat next to Jack.
""One red wine please!"" She said to the Time Wizard, as she relaxed a bit, inspecting Jack a bit.
""So... You are here for the dueling too, right?"" She asked, as she was still inspecting Jack with her eyes.
""The name is Emily by the way."" She said, as she received her red wine from the Time Wizard.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
""Yeah... Vodka isn't that good for you..."" Aono said, as he took another sip, placing it back on the table.
""But you only live once you know, so you better make the best of it."" He said, starting to laugh a bit.
""Hmm.. maybe we can duel a bit later then? I could show you some wicked combos, Miss Nishimura."" He said with a gentle smile on his face, absolutely ignoring the guy next to him. Aono looked outside, and saw the palace appear in front of him. ""Wow... He sure as hell knows how to make a good first impression!"" Aono said, starting to laugh a bit. He noticed that Miwa was signalling to them to come out of the limo, so he did, making sure he had all his belongings with him. ""This is quite a nice place... Maybe we can sit somewhere together?"" Aono asked with a nice tone in his voice, once again ignoring the fact that there was still another person in the limousine.</div>"

In that instance, he had forgotten that there might be other people with which me might be expected to converse.  

<span class=""bb-i"">Oh, yeah.</span> he thought.  <span class=""bb-i"">Stupid of me.</span>

""Dueling?  Me?  Oh no, I'm just the gardener.""  he said, voice thick with snark.  He was, however, careful to keep any venom from his voice, a lesson that he had learned from speaking with Fubuki.  

Reaching into his coat, he pulled his deck from within and placed it on the table in front of him as if to prove a point.

At that point, he noticed the intensity with which she stared at him.  

<span class=""bb-i"">What exactly does this girl think she wants?</span>

""I know I'm pretty, darling, but there's no need to gawk.  Call me Jack.""</div>"

Kenta glanced back at the monsters going about their business, it filled him with a sense of nostalgia, seeing all of these old cards now doing all sorts of things. He fondly remembered the days where some of the best cards were the ones that just had plain huge ATK and DEF.

But right now, sentiments aren't the focus here. He dismissed the thought of reminiscing the old days as he turned his head one final time to look at the realistic monsters. Soon enough, both young men were sitting in their respective chairs and in front of his eyes were...<span class=""bb-b"">Food!</span> There were steaks, salads, burgers, and a whole platter of other stuff. Just looking at all of it was making Kenta's mouth water with anticipation. Although something did stood out for the boy, where was the rice? All of this delicious looking food and no rice to enjoy it with? With a confused look, he turned to Joseph and asked him, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""There is steak, yes...But, where is the rice? Not a...full meal if there isn't any!""</span></span>. He said with a small frown in his face.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I have eaten burgers before but...You don't eat that with rice, silly.""</span></span>
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Miwa giggled at Aono's little offer, he's quite the charmer isn't he? She thought, but right now, she had already set her sights on a different boy. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Uhh...W-Well, how about all three of us sit together? It wouldn't be fair if it was just the two of us, don't you think?""</span></span>. As the girl began to inspect her surroundings, she got a closer look of the palace. Everything looked so pretty, it put her parent's mansion to shame, ten-fold!

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I wonder why the owner used such old cards to be featured...""</span></span> The girl wondered as she placed a finger near her cheeks, it made her curious, not that she was complaining. All of it made her remember the first time she picked up the game with the boy who taught him, he had used some of the cards that were interacting with the other patrons before her very eyes.</div>"

Right, Kenta was from Japan- he wasn't used to the usual heavy American fare.

""In America, rice isn't as much of a staple food as it is in East Asian countries."" he explained, a glint in his eye. ""In face, rice is mostly used as a side dish here, if at all.""

As soon as he said that, though, another monster came by and delivered two bowls of white rice to the table.

""Or... That could happen. That was fast. It's like it knew what you were looking for."" he said with a grin before trying some of the steak out with rice. It was... Well, different, to put it one way or another. But hey, foreign cuisine. Why not?

As he took another bite out of his steak, a third monster appeared, this time with some bowls of miso soup. Huh. Well, the game did get popular in Japan, after all. Shrugging, he took a sip of the soup. Salty. Maybe if he just mixed it with the rice...</div>"

Aono asked, totally forgetting about the other guy who was sitting in the limousine with him.
Aono looked around the palace, it was certainly better than the places where he usually crashes... Most of the times, they are cheap motels with no redeeming qualities.
As Aono looked a round, he noticed some Dark Magician Girls. ""Damn... those look quite good too... ""He thought to himself.
Aono opened his deck box again, grabbed Void Ogre Dragon again, starting to stare at it without paying attention to his surroundings.
""Seeing this all around me.... takes me back Void Ogre Dragon.."" He said to himself, loud enough for others to hear.</div>"
2056,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-02 19:26:00,Cam,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Hmm... Are you trying to sound funny?"" Emily said, still inspecting Jack with her eyes. ""I was just trying to start a friendly conversations... Where are your manners, boy?"" She said, with an angry tone in her voice this time, still staring at Jack, taking a sip of her red wine this time.  ""Anyways, I shall teach you to have some respect when addressing the Bloodriver."" She said, with a smile on her face, putting her deck onto the table.  ""Unless you are scared that is.."" Emily said, her face changing to a sadistic smile now. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Duelists are so predictable</span>, Jack thought. ""Listen, lady, I'll duel you. Hell, if you win, I'll even let you stare at these pretty blue eyes all night. However, If I win, you're going to walk away. Understood?""  

""Don't test your luck. Your eyes aren't even that nice... And sure, if you want me to go away, you could have told me from the start... But the fact that you are offering to let me stay means that you must be interested in me."" She said before finally breaking eye contact with Jack.

""Don't flatter yourself too much, cupcake."" Jack goaded her on.  ""Frankly, I would have thought seeing a man drinking alone in the corner might have been cue in itself to leave well enough alone.  But you wanted to chat, and I'm a fair man.  I'm offering you the chance to win that right.""

""Well, I'll teach you some manners, you arrogant pig... First lesson, ladies first!"" She exclaimed as she drew 6 cards from the top of her deck and gave them a glance. ""Yes... this one shall do well!"" She said, as she put a monster Face-down on her side of the field. ""Lets see how you manage in a duel!"" She said, as she took yet another sip from her glass. 

Jack drew his hand and it couldn't have been any more perfect. ""First things first, I'll set a couple cards face down. But, darn, I just can't help but think how lonely your monster looks over there all by itself. I think I'll give you another one."" Jack placed his Grinder Golem on Emily's side of the field, attack position. ""But that's not all, I now have two Grinder Tokens at my disposal, and I think one of them should attack."" 

""First of all.. my monster doesn't mind the loneliness.."" she started with an air of uncertiaty growing in her voice. ""Second of all, are you completely insane? That will cost you 3000 life points in your first turn!"" She shouted.

""Am I insane? Probably so, but I've also activated a powerful spell card called Inferno Tempest. When I lost the 3000 life points for attacking Grinder Golem, it's effect was triggered, banishing all monsters from both of our decks and graveyards."" Jack laughed, it was too easy. 

""So what?"" Emily demanded. ""I am running a mill deck, you fool! That was even worse than your first move!"" She said, as she started to laugh, after which she took another sip from her glass. 

Jack signals to Emily that his turn had ended, but as she tried to draw a card, Jack spoke once more: ""And then, before you even draw a single card, I think I'll just go ahead and end this duel. Activate trap card D.D. Dynamite! That ought to wrap things up.""

Emily was silent for a moment, taking in what just happened.
""Well... You were boring anyway..."" She said, as she picked up her cards, leaving the table, looking around for somebody else to sit to her.
""What a rude boy..."" She thought to herself.
_________________________________________________

As she departed, Jack had already begun to drift back into his thoughts.  Taking a refil from the busy little Time Wizard, he noticed that Emily had left her own unflishd glass on the table.  

Red wine was what she had ordered, but wine didn't cling to the side of the glass like that.  This cocktail was far too thick.  

Suddenly, the aroma of copper hit his nostrils, and he cringed.  

Duelist were predictable, yes, but people like Emily?

They were truly disgusting. 

Finishing his second drink, Jack made note of yet another name that needed investigating.</div>"

I wonder if we get it if we win. It looks really nice."" He got a feeling he was being ignored but that was okay, most people ignored him. Eagerly he hefted his small bag and went inside with Miwa, gazing in awe all around him at the various duel monsters and impressive furnishings. He had no idea that you could even have this fancy of a place, it was amazing, and better yet they had food. Moros loaded three plates with all the fruit he could find, even a watermelon and set down ready to feast, he didn't think he had ever seen so much food in one place. The tough guy was rambling on about something but Moros was more interested in the food. Just before he dug in he stopped, ""You know, I don't know your names. My name is Moros."" he said and then rapidly began inhaling his food.</div>"

Oh well, the time would come soon. ""Damn, we're here already?"" Alexander asked himself. ""Oh well. See ya,"" he said to Ryo, getting out of the limo to see a grand mansion. Closing the door behind him, he walked into the mansion, admiring the holograms of Duel Monsters. ""Wow..."" Alexander whispered, wondering how much time, effort, and money was put into this. 

A Time Wizard came up to him with a glass and a bottle. Curious, he took the glass and held it up to the Time Wizard, who then filled it up with Coca-Cola. Delighted, Alexander said, ""Oooooo, thanks,"" and took a sip. Refreshing.

Michelle had quietly enjoyed the trip to the mansion, watching a playback of a previous tournament in which her mother was the champion of. She took out her deck from her pouch and flipped through the cards until her signature card showed up. Michelle remembered the promise she made to her mother, and she intended to keep it. 

Then she was told that the limo had arrived. Getting out the limo, she was then immediately awed by the sight of the mansion. Holograms of Duel Monsters outside of actual Duels? She didn't know what to say.</div>"

That sounds awful! <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Eh? Then, are you saying that...You just eat the meal?""</span></span> It took a while for the alien concept to set in his mind, the boy eventually let the idea not get the best of him, he was here to enjoy after all.

He grabbed the spoon and fork near the plate and with a small bow, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Let's eat!""</span></span> He said, as the young man began to chow down on the succulent slab of meat, it tasted...Delectable, he could indulge in the taste for hours on end and it wasn't half bad without rice, though he was beginning to feel a part of him wishing that they could've served some along with the meal.

Then, as if by magic, a monster came to the table with two bowls of white rice! One for both of them he presumed. His eyes lit up with a gleam of happiness as he practically pried it from the hands of the monster.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""The host, I like him now...""</span></span> Kenta said before wolfing down the steak once more. With or without rice, it was great, he could keep on eating and eating until he'd feel bloated. No sooner than later, another monster approached them with bowls of Miso soup in its hands. Ahh, that should hit the spot...It's like being home again, coming down his room with the smell of fresh soup in morning for breakfast...
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""You mean to tell me that you forgot the boy inside the limo with us?""</span></span> Miwa leaned near Aono with a dumbfounded look on her face. Either he intentionally ignored him, he's playing dumb, he's actually dumb or he simply forgot...Then all of a sudden he started to mention his card, Void Ogre Dragon...The very name would make you think what'd happen if you saw that thing in front of you, and with the technology today making it possible, it was...scary to say the least.

Deciding that she shouldn't be all distant and aloof, she decides to listen to his story, if it would make him feel better...<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""So, about that dragon of yours? Must be special, huh?""</span></span> she said while they approached the hall. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Oh, hold that thought.""</span></span> As Miwa looked on the hall, she could see so much food. It was practically everywhere! Fruit and veggies from various different continents and dishes that looked so exquisite and exotic that her mouth couldn't help but water at the thought.

The boy they were with earlier had already filled three plates with nothing but fruit! Sitting down in a chair near him she grabbed an apple and took a small bite. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Moros? What a weird name.""</span></span> She thought to herself, it definitely sounded foreign though. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Ah, I guess now is the place for an introduction. My name is Miwa Nishimura, it's nice to meet you Moros.""</span></span> The girl ended her introduction with a small curtsy.</div>"

Its not like i really forgot, he was just... silent... So I didn't really care."" He said, trying not to sound like a total idiot.
While looking at his card, he noticed that Miwa noticed that he was startig at it too. ""Well this card... Its a long story."" He said, showing the card to Miwa. ""Back in the day, I didn't even know what Yu-Gi-Oh was. I wasn't the nicest person around either.."" He sighted, sitting down on a chair near Miwa. ""In fact.. robbing stores, mugging people.. Me and my friends were in a group called the rebellion.. gambling, dealing drugs, that kind of things were daily stuff..."" He sighted, as he order a steak from a nearby Time Wizard. ""So yeah where was I... Ah yeah, the card... Anyways, i was walking around on street at night, just came back from a job, when i found a card on the ground with a note attached to it."" He was explaining, when the Time Wizard came back with his steak. ""That was... quite fast!"" He said, with a smile on his face, as he took a bite from the steak. ""Wow... This is quite good.. They surely know how to impress someone!"" He said, as he laughed.
""Anyway.. I didn't even know what Yu-Gi-Oh was... But the card i found on the ground was Void Ogre Dragon.."" He said, taking another bite from his steak. ""And the note was really weird.. It seemed like it was written with... blood?"" He said, thinking for a while, as he took another bite. ""Anyways, it said something like.... I have seen you, this isn't how you should live like... Try out Yu-Gi-Oh, here is a card to start with... Train, and in the future face me..."" He said, taking breaks inbetween words, as it was a while ago.
""Long story short, I believe that person is here, and I am ready to face that person..."" He said, finishing his steak.
""Im not even sure if that person is here though, and even if this person is here.. I have no clue what that person is like... my only hint is that letter was written in blood.. which isn't that much of a hint.."" He said, as he stretched his arms a bit.
As he was talking, he heard the other person introduce himself.
""My name is Aono.."" He said, looking at the guy.
""So yeah.. what brings you guys here?"" He asked, as he put his legs on the table, laying back a bit.</div>"

Who knows what happens next in the location, maybe some random battle or lottery...

""A crazy girl, then a driver that disappears, what's next..."" Ryo walked into the building, ignoring the annoying flying object that has the same appearance as his weakest card in his deck.

""And the fake arena of the 'duelist kingdom'..."" Ryo looked at the Arena of the legendary Duelist Kingdom, the same event where Pegasus, the first leader of Industrial Illusions, died. He smirked at the sight of the lack of lifeforce of the arena, its probably a dummy to coverup the actual devices that are used, which he didn't know obviously, but its probably not as bulky and ridiculous as that thing.

""And... How did I.I survive after the death of Pegasus, quite a surprise huh..."" He folded his arms as he snacked on his tidbits~</div>"

A loud thundering noise erupted from the roof and a pack of Silver Fangs entered and surrounded the hall. They all sat in sync and as the roof opened up began to howl a melody. In from the seemingly sky dropped a stage, flame engulfed torches on either side. In the center was a large throne fit for a god, the gold on the throne glowed a bright orange in the flame. A Black Luster Soldier stand on either side of the throne at attention and unwavering. Then a loud crack emitted from the doors, the wolves howl grew louder and louder to a near deafening level. Footsteps could be faintly heard outside and a shadow grew larger and larger in the open doorway. A titan of a figure stood in the large doorway.

Then a large stomp and the howling of the silver fangs stopped abruptly. In walked the massive figure covered in a large fur coat flowing behind him. He lowered his hood to reveal perfectly slicked back hair and a chiseled face with a 5 O'clock shadow. Towering over the leather chairs as he walked by the massive man smiled a bright white smile at all of his guests. He walked down the center aisle between the tables and behind the large leather recliners. Harpy Ladies swooped from above and pulled the fur coat off of The Khan as he approached his throne. His golden vest was complemented by his black button down shirt and black pants. A large sharp tooth hung around his neck. He smirked looking at all of the duelists in the hall holding their captive attention. Then standing he said with his booming voice 

""Welcome to Shambala! You two!"" he pointed at two duelists in the hall, each very young. 

""Come here and entertain us all with a duel. Except use those."" He pointed at the Duelist Kingdom Dueling Platforms. The two nervously stepped onto the platforms that were mounted to the wall and rose up above the audience. They fumbled with the controls for minutes sweating and babbling when finally The Khan had enough. 

""You two, may have your leave now."" He said with a smile. The two duelists were then escorted out of the hall. The doors massive doors slamming behind them. 

""Who is ready to meet their favorite monster?"" The Khan said snapping his fingers when suddenly marching in came each duelists favorite monster. And organized they marched to the empty seat next to the duelists and if they were too large stood near the entrance away from the crowd waiting to be approached by their master.

""They will take you to your rooms when requested. You will find they are custom fit to your needs."" The Khan said with his booming voice echoing throughout the hall.</div>"

The entrance was flashy and showy, and fell exactly into what Jack expected.  However, it surprised him that the Khan would keep them up all night only to then dismiss everyone.  Would there be no speech?  No announcement?  Perhaps the man kept to himself because he didn't like to talk.

But that was the least of Jack's concerns as his table was joined by an Injection Fairy Lily, his favorite monster from his deck.  ""I've missed something huge."" he murmured quietly.  How much did the Khan know?   

Jack was a move behind, a feeling he did not have often.  

""Very well, then,"" he said, turning towards the Lily.  ""You're to take me to my quarters?""

The monster nodded happily and cartoonishly, jumping to her feet.  Jack much preferred her as a card.

""If that concludes the excitement here,"" Jack said with a sigh, ""I suppose you should lead the way.</div>"

""He sure as hell knows how to make an impression.. "" He thought to himself.
""Good riddance.."" He thought to himself, as the duelists left the area.
He looked around, taking in the massive amount of duelists in the building.
""Damn... Finding that one person here will be hard.."" He thought to himself, not listening to what the Khan had to say.
As he looked up, he saw all kinds of monsters enter the building, until he noticed Void Ogre Dragon entering too, making his face turn pale.
""Void... Ogre... Dragon... You're back?!"" He said to himself, as he stood up from his chair, walking towards him. ""Now this is quite the suprise... "" He thought to himself, looking at the other monsters, noticing there being a vampire among the monsters. ""A vampire... Thinking about it, vampires drink blood.. and the letter was written in blood.."" He thought to himself, still waking towards his dragon. As he stood near the dragon, he looked up, noticing the massive size of his dragon. ""So maybe I wasn't crazy after all.. Maybe you really were talking to me.. ""He thought, looking at the Void Ogre Dragon. ""Well master, lets go to your room shall we?"" The Void Ogre Dragon said with the same demonic voice he kept hearing at times. ""Yes..."" He thought, still looking at his surroundings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emily was getting bored, but then the Khan finally came in.
""It was about time.."" She thought to herself. ""Favourite monster hmm? Its not like i can't already see them anyway..."" She thought to herself, as she saw her Vampire Vamp walk towards her. ""Are you prepared to go to your room, mistress?"" The monster asked with a gentle voice. ""Those aren't real duel spirits... Are they?"" She wondered, as she looked around, noticing a massive Void Ogre Dragon, making her smile a bit. ""So he is here after all, hmm.."" She said to herself, looking at the boy with a pale face, looking at the Void Ogre Dragon. ""The voice of Void Ogre Dragon might have made him crazy.. "" She thought to herself, looking around, noticing all kinds of monsters. ""Anyways.. Lets go to my room!"" She said to the Vampire Vamp, as Emily was still looking around.</div>"

Then the Khan surprised him by releasing everyone's favorite monsters to each person, including him. 

Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En walked up and bowed to him, then gestured with his hand to follow him. ""Let me escorts you to your room,"" he said. With that, how could Alexander resist? ""Lead the way, Shi En,"" Alexander responded, following Shi En to his room. 
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Michelle watched as the two Duelists left, thinking, <span class=""bb-i"">Well, I'm sure they tried their best.</span> The Khan surprised her as well when everyone's favorite monsters showed up. Michelle looked around. There was a dragon, a vampire, a samurai, and so much more. 

In front of her, though, was her favorite monster and ace in her deck: Destiny HERO - Plasma. His purplish armor and giant wings that were folded to his sides was magnificent, especially now that she wasn't in a Duel. Plasma extended his hand, and Michelle shyly took it. Plasma then led her to her room.</div>"

It wasn't very interesting so he quickly pocketed some food as he sensed the event was coming to a close. Then the Khan revealed the monsters that were to escort everybody to their room. He looked around curiously for the king but couldn't find him, he turned around and the king was right in front of him. He grinned, of course that's where he would be. Moros gestured forward, ""Lead on my king."" and the cloaked skeleton silently led him to his room where Moros quickly attempted to fall into a blissful slumber.</div>"

To enter with such grandeur was acceptable, but to put people on the spot like that without any warning, then promptly kicking them out? Either the act was staged by the man, or two people were just eliminated before even having a chance to compete. Either way, it wasn't acceptable by any means. But that issue would have to wait. She still had things to accomplish there.

That being said, the Khan's next move was... Shocking, to say the least. Favorite monster, he said. It couldn't be. Slowly turning her head towards the gateway, she noticed it. Nekroz of Gungnir. It was there. But how... How did he know?

Before she could ask any more questions, the monster walked up to her and bowed politely.

""Shall we head to your room then, Ms. Motorei?"" it said in perfect Japanese.

""Y-yes..."" Fubuki said, still unsure of what to think as the two walked out of the banquet hall and to Fubuki's room. There, Fubuki sat down on her bed as the Nekroz of Gungnir quietly presided over her.

""Er... Can I ask you a few questions?"" Fubuki asked, looking solemnly at the woman clad in armor.

""My apologies. I am not able to answer any questions at this time."" the monster responded, bowing her head in apology.

""Is that so...? Well, I guess it can't be helped."" Fubuki responded as she unpacked her luggage and laid down on the bed. Things would only get more difficult from here on out...

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
Joseph ate his food rather quickly as the show began taking mild amusement in the Khan's theatrics. It wasn't exactly something you'd see every day, but then again this was a rather interesting show. Making a fool out of the two duelists, though killed Joseph's appetite on the spot. That just wasn't something you would do. Period. Lookinga t the Khan disdainfully, Joseph perked up when he heard 'meet' and 'favorite monster' in the same sentence. Quickly turning his head, he noticed a dragon glowing a bright ethereal white waiting outside in the hall.

""Ah... Wow. Now that... That is impressive."" Joseph said before turning to Kenta.

""Guess this is where we part ways for now, Kenta. Seeya."" he said, giving a quick nod to the Japanese boy before walking over to the Constellarknight Diamond waiting for him.

""To my room, then?"" Joseph asked brightly. The dragon simply nodded and walked off, Joseph following close behind.</div>"
2068,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-05 04:38:00,Cam,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jack followed his monster quietly to what would be his bedroom for the foreseeable future.  

Jack was cautious not to utter so much as a single word.  The situation, for the time being, was completely out of his hands.  Even so, he was reluctant to surrender even the slightest bit of intelligence to his foes.  

Jack supposed it would have been a simple enough task to figure out what a duelist's  favorite card was.  All the Khan really needed was access to Industrial Illusions tournament database.  

That was not a complete answer, however, and Jack was not satisfied.  

There was no Jack DuBois to find in I.I.'s records.  
So, then, how could Khan know so much?
""Your room, sir"" Lily interrupted as they arrived.  
""Thank you,"" Jack responded.  ""You're dismissed.""


Within the threshold, he found the lights and revealed quite a luxurious setup.  A four post bed draped with what appeared to be fine silk commanded the centre of the room.  Say what you want to about the man, Khan really knew how to treat his guest.  Understanding now what was meant by being customized to fit each duelist’s needs, Jack noticed a small desk and lamp off to the corner of the chamber.  This would be his destination.

Could The Khan have known his intentions here?  It was a terrifying thought, and it certainly seemed to be the case.  There would be time to address this later, however.

Jack allowed his bag to drop gently at his feet as he himself dropped into the overly cushioned chair.  Wasting no time, he opened his backpack and retrieved  his laptop.  It would be a vital tool in his investigation.  The device instantly linked up with the mansions own wi-fi connection, but that would hardly do.  Jack could not afford to let his host know what work he was up to, so instead he connected to his own cell phone’s hotspot.  Meanwh, he used the phone’s browser to connect to the local internet and searched for some rather suggestive videos involving women and pasture animals.

Safe, now, from any prying eyes, the real work could begin.

This was not Fubuki’s first tournament, Jack had remembered her saying as much.  If that were true, finding a lead on who the girl was should be as simple as logging into the Industrial Illusions database and finding her name.  The irony was bitter, as Jack suspected that his rival may have already used a similar tactic, but the exercise should yield results all the same.

Jack’s fingers were well practiced at the motions, and he typed information into the required fields quickly.  Fubuki… Motorei… search.

Loading… Loading… yes, there she was.

Interesting, Jack thought, and not exactly what he had expected to find.  It appeared that in her earlier duels, Fubuki had required a financial sponsor.  Some kind of corporate interest, by the looks of it.

This didn’t make much sense to Jack.  She did not seem like some kind of corporate pawn, only in it for the money; for personal gain.  And she certainly didn’t seem like the type to rely on others to get what she needed.  There must be more to it than this..  

Conducting a search on the company itself now, he found mentions of a dueling academy and ties to Industrial Illusions.  Apparently, Fubuki’s prize winnings had been used to fund the academy.  This, at least, began to paint a better picture.  She duels so that others might learn, how quaint.  Still, though, Jack felt he was missing pieces of the puzzle.  

No matter, though, he had gathered enough to make his next move.  On to other matters then.

Leaning over to dig in his bag again, he had noticed something had fallen from it and into the floor as he had brought out his computer.  It was a small photograph, meant to be carried in a wallet.  

The portrait was of a young woman, probably in her twenties.  The edges were worn and yellowed, but other than that great care had been taken of it.  Gently, Jack picked it up and smiled,  beginning to let his thoughts wander to better times.

No, no, not now.  He could not afford to be lost in his own memories at the moment.  The game had to take priority right now.  He needed to know more about this Khan fellow.

Setting the photograph aside on the desk, he returned his focus to the computer and his work.  He had found his angle to approach Fubuki with relative ease.  Finding something to use against the Khan would be a much greater challenge.</div>"
2069,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-05 14:05:00,Haru Nyan,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As Kenta gulped down the last remains of his meal he could feel his stomach being filled to the brim of the delicious food. Sighing in relief, he placed the spoon and fork down along with the bowl he had eaten with. Suddenly there was a loud sound, enough to make him startled. When the host finally made his grand entrance, the boy gazed in both awe and curiosity. 

However, when he called upon two duelists who were soon dismissed for such a little reason, he had to rethink back his previous words of praise...Certainly not the nicest host...But, given the nature of tournaments in general, being rough must be a requirement. Thankfully, he did do something that for Kenta, seemed rather generous. He would allow the duelists to meet their personal favorite monsters! At first, the boy was confused...But as soon as the monsters started appearing and pairing with their respective owners, he got the picture.

Beside the boy was a humanoid tiger covered in both armor and surrounded by a ring of fire had appeared beside him. As if the flames weren't intimidating enough, the beast itself was no joke, arms looking like they're strong enough to lift more than humans, claws that could tear flesh and a feline visage that was adorned with a horned helmet along with a long flowing mane of red hair. It looked down on Kenta with a vicious glare that made him fear for his life, it raised it's claw overhead and the boy thought it was going to attack him...Fortunately, that wasn't the case and the monster simply grabbed him by the hand and gestured Kenta to follow it.

Looking back at Joseph who had just bid farewell, he waved back with his free arm while being dragged by the beast.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Earnestly listening to Aono's story about the card while gnawing on the fruit, she was a bit startled at the mention of blood and more shocked at the fact that he did those immoral things back then...Guess she was sort of right saying that he was a delinquent...

All of a sudden there was a loud sound, enough to make the girl gasp. Then The Khan himself made his grand entrance. It certainly looked pretty, much like the rest of the area. He called on two duelists to fight and as they fiddled and did this and that, the Khan wouldn't take it and essentially kicked them out of the door. Certainly not the most patient of persons, is he? And soon, Miwa realized that in this tournament, it's win or lose. You either win a fight or lose your pride, shuddering at the thought of what might happen when one loses, she tried to regain her nerves and began to inhale and exhale repeatedly to regain her composure.

Thankfully, the negativity began to disappear as he asked all of them is they'r ready to meet their favorite monster. What does that mean? Then Miwa could see a whole bunch of different monsters appearing beside the duelists, ranging from some vicious and large dragons, demonic and nightmare-inducing fiends, grotesque and macabre zombies, majestic-looking angels and all other assortments of various monsters. She tried to look everywhere for her own special monster, but to no avail. Suddenly, she could feel someone or something tugging on one of her pigtails, she turned her attention to see...

A small, floating and adorable looking princess repeatedly pulling on her hair! It's hair styled into long, golden locks and with a cherry on top too! She was dressed in a gown that reminded Miwa of delicious confections, most especially cake...When the princess finally got her attention, she crossed her arms and puffed her cheeks. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""How rude! A princess shouldn't be kept waiting, you know!""</span></span> It was amazing! Right there floating in front of her was Madolche Puddingcess! Releasing the strands of hair clutched in the hands of the princess, Miwa eagerly asked her all sorts of things, but the princess refused to answer.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Hmph! Your questions will be answered soon, but us princesses need their beauty sleep! Come on, off we go!""</span></span> The princess said as she floated into the direction of where Miwa's room was. She soon followed suit.</div>"

He wondered if the holographic dragon would be able to follow orders like this, or that it is restricted to only a certain set of commands. Folding his arms, he stared at Khan, wondering what would happen next, as he yawned at the chairman of Industrial Illusions~

""And now, out of all the mobs, why is that OP card's considered my 'favorite card', even when I haven't used it yet...?"" Ryo frowned under the existence of the Blue-Eyed dragon beside him. He was actually expecting something like a Summoned skull, or worst, a Kuriboh. ""Like... I don't even deserve to play that card in the first place~"" Ryo hissed, turning back to the assigned room he was in~</div>"

In just a few short hours, the private jet the Khan had sent off to transport Lyall had landed. He had slept most of the way there, but he did take a note of the dueling simulator the craft had so he could later be reminded to have some of those installed in his family's jets. Seriously, why hadn't anybody there thought of that yet? Grabbing his belongings and snagging a few sandwiches from a fridge, he exited the jet and made his way down the steps, a sleek black limousine already waiting for him at the bottom. Lyall grinned. 

""Heh, if there's one thing I can say about the Khan, it's that he knows how to provide for his guests!""

Lyall thought it was a bit of a shame he couldn't stand around and admire the city's skyline, but at least he could see the city during the ride. Even from within the vehicle he could see that it lived up to its reputation of a place of splendor, much like the city where he came from. He thought the two cities would've looked similar, but that wasn't the case due to Regno's old styled architecture, which Lyall thought was pretty cool actually. He felt this would certainly be an... interesting trip, and not just because of the Duel Monsters tournament. That definitely was a big reason for his excitement though, he was interested in seeing new duelists and the type of decks they'd bring. The other part came from meeting the Khan himself to talk about some more ""professional"" dealings, but that was stuff he'd concern himself over at a later time. At the moment he actually did have something to think about, and that was the duel he'd be having as soon as he arrived at the dueling dome. The Khan had been considerate to Lyall's other duties and had moved his duel to a time later in the day. Checking the tournament information on his phone, he saw that his opponent would be some snooty looking guy posing with what seemed to be an Archfiend card. 

""Makes for a good picture,"" Lyall said as he pulled out his own deck, ""But not a smart move unless you wanted for people to know what you'd be using. Cocky.""

The limo finally arrived at the tournament's building. The dome looked magnificent, somewhat resembling a colosseum due to the statues of monsters and soldiers carved into the structure, and of course that ancient design many other buildings had here. Lyall left for the dome with only his duel disk and deck as his luggage would be taken to his place of lodging. 

""Now then, let's get this out of the way!""

The opponent was already waiting for him at the dueling stage, but he did not look happy. His eyes narrowed in annoyance as soon as he saw Lyall approach the stage.

<span class=""bb-i"">""I don't know how you did it, but you better have some damn good reason for moving our duel to this hour! I wasn't planning on wasting my time waiting for a duel I'll finish in mere turns!""</span>

Lyall raised an eyebrow before crossing his arms and shaking his head.

""That's a way to greet your opponent, you're snottier than your profile would let on! Fine then, let me apologize for wasting so much of your precious time by actually making this duel last a few 'mere' turns.""

Other than a few more retorts, their duel began soon after, with Lyall taking first turn as a result of a holographic coin flip....

...

All details aside, the Duel did indeed last a few mere turns. Lyall arose the unquestioned victor, having lost literally no life points while basically keeping his opponent's field empty with the help of Moth and Girastag, two fearsome fiends that made the Archfiends seem like nothing. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""What... how... THAT FAST?!""</span> 

Lyall chuckled mockingly.

""Of course, you said you were tired of being here so I decided to help you out in leaving. See ya later, and... don't feel bad. You were a decent appetizer.""

With that, Lyall haughtily walked off the stage. It would have been cool to linger around the dome and walk around, but seeing as how everything for today was over for now, there was no point. Now was the time to go to wherever it was he would be staying.

...

Lyall was surprised to see his place of lodging would be at the Khan's Hall. He was expecting to stay at a hotel or something but not this. He walked in unnoticed and took an upstairs route, but stopped walking when he heard commotion. It was the grand entrance of the Khan, although Lyall focused more on the other duelists standing there that were completely mesmerized. Their trance was broken by surprise when they witnessed monsters walk in.

""Monsters....? Here without.. or are they just costumes? No... they look to real to be costumes, and by the looks on their faces these are monsters they can 'relate' to...""

He watched a bit more as the Nekroz of Gungnir and Lily physically interacted with their duelists. From the corner of his eye, Lyall saw two familiar red eyes flash, and turned to look at Evilswarm Kerykeion standing upright with only one of its staffs planted in the ground.

""Nice to see you again.""

Kerykeion nodded before vanishing. Lyall smirked, it seemed there actually would be more to this whole place, trip, and to the Khan himself than he would have expected. He slinked away into the dark hallways afterwards, deciding to meet the duelists at another time.</div>"

The Khan finished his feast of a brunch in the study all by himself. Doning a vintage blue coat and under a white button down and white pants, he ran his hand through his messy hair that was a little longer than he usually liked. He looked around wondering where everybody was soon realizing he was in the study eating and now the great hall where he had announced to go that morning. Oh well a brunch in peace wouldn't hurt. Especially since he was sure he would get bombarded by the duelists today. He woke them up with a soft melody and then announced brunch would be held in the hall today as well as that the contestants favorite monsters were allowed to converse with their counterpart freely now.

He walked into the hall with a wide grin on his face as he looked over all the duelists devouring french toast, eggs, sausage, rice, etc. Then he walked into the center of the room and stomped his Italian shoe once. The thundering noise ceased all conversation immediately as an eerie silence fell over the grand hall. The massive man took in the view of all the eyes on him and then took a deep breath of satisfaction.

""Hello and good morning duelists. Welcome to your first day in Shambala!"" He said smiling and turning in a circle to face all the duelists.

""Today is a very special day. It was to my understanding that most of you rode in twos correct? Of course it is, that person will be your partner for the day and in case you don't remember what they look like... Your monsters do. You and your partner will be a duo today dueling against another duo for the first round of the tournament! If you were a third wheel? Ask your monster. The duo you will be dueling against can be found by looking at any of the holograms around the hall."" He said winking. 

""Hope you all enjoyed brunch if you need me I will be either around or in the casino room! Happy dueling."" He said with a sly tone to his voice. He then walked out of the hall and down the hallway and around the corner towards the casino room.</div>"

Now, Lyall was ready for his first true day here in the Khan's city and more than ready to meet the other duelists lodging here. There was still the matter of speaking with the host himself though, after all, he hadn't just come to Regno for the purpose of leisure alone...

""I don't think it'd look good to just waltz up to the man and demand to talk business... no, it's likely a better idea to make myself known through a few duels first, especially if the Khan is capable of doing what I <span class=""bb-i"">think</span> he's doing...""

He instinctively cracked his knuckles and rubbed the back of his left hand before looking down at the crest of the Swarm. It just looked like a tattoo <span class=""bb-i"">at the moment</span>, not a hint of a glow to tip him off to any mysterious powers in the area. However, Kerykeion's presence last night said otherwise in that regard, especially since Lyall hadn't called upon the monster. Oh yeah, and there was also the matter of the OTHER monsters wandering the Halls with their respective duelists.

""Something to be looked into later,"" Lyall sighed, ""One thing at a time for now.""

Lyall exited his room and headed for the Great Hall after he had brushed his teeth, showered, and gotten dressed. He made sure to have his duel disk on him too. It was of a custom design, appearing as a slightly bulky forearm ""bracelet"" until it was activated for a duel. The color scheme was made to mimic the armor of one of his Steelswarms, Girastag, being a metallic, dark charcoal color with some red and orange markings here and there. Now at the Great Hall, he paused to observe the scenery.

""...Wow...""

Wow indeed. It might as well have been the dining hall of some Egyptian Pharaoh, and the food laid out for breakfast... Ooooooh yeah, rulers could definitely feast on this stuff judging by utterly delicious it looked. He didn't realize how hungry was until then, but when he did, he immediately headed over to grab a plate and load it with food. Lyall then sat down at a solitary table next to one of the Great Hall's pillars, observing the other duelists go about their breakfast. They seemed like a decently skilled lot much to his pleasing, and by the look and talk about them... they were looking for tag partners as per the Khan's request. Had he missed the man AGAIN? Ugh, what a fail on his part, he should really learn not to take so long preparing in the mornings...

A flash of red in beside him diverted his attention from the others yet again. It was Kerykeion again, and both nodded to each other in acknowledgment. The monster hadn't been saying much lately... well, not that it usually said much, but he could tell it was agitated, no doubt as a result from being brought into this realm by some external power. It vanished momentarily before appearing by his side to look at the other duelists. Lyall decided he would wait for somebody to approach him, as was his custom for things like these considering he himself was never really one to form matchups...</div>"

Frankly, there was no need to.  He had been far to busy trying to find even a scrap of information on his host, but to no avail.  The man was a ghost, as they say.  

No matter.  Jack would not be deterred so easily.

As the sun began to rise over the horizon, Jack heard the sound of music.  It was a gentle tune, almost comforting even, but it would have been loud enough to have roused him from a deep slumber.  ""It must be time for breakfast,"" he thought.

Wandering aimlessly through the halls of Shambala, Jack eventually ended up in the same entrance hall where the Khan had made his first appearance.  It seemed he had arrived just in time to hear The Khans plans for the day.

So the first round was to be a cooperative effort?

Jack had to admit, it saved him some time.  He did not have to go and search out Fubuki, now she would come to him.  Still, though, the whole situation was discomforting.

<span class=""bb-i"">What if the ride in the limo was no coincidence?</span>  Jack thought.

But even if they were all playing directly into the Khan's hand, what did any of it mean?  What could the mysterious brute of a man hope to achieve?  The event was not just an ordinary tournament, that much was clear.  But what, in fact was it?

Jack's deliberation was interrupted by the arrival of his Injection Fairy Lily.  ""Shall I introduce you to your partner, Mr. Jack?"" she asked with far more pep than Jack could stomach.

""That will be unnecessary, Lily."" he replied. ""I believe we've already met.""

""I should think you're correct, sir."" Lily beamed.

""We'll meet up with Miss Motorei soon enough.  First, I have some questions to ask you.""

""Of course!"" Lily exclaimed, ""Anything you need!""

""Yes, yes, quiet down."" Jack shushed her.  ""I need to know if you can show me a map of the palace.  Floor plans, an architects sketch, anything like that."" 

""Well.."" She hesitated, ""There is a directory near the main enterence...""

Jack cut her off, ""The directory is no good.  I need to see something more detailed.""

""Well, sir, I don't have anything like that."" she answered in a sad tone that apologized for the failure on its own.

""That's quite alright, Lily."" Jack said.  It wasn't a huge loss, it wasn't really even surprising.  He simply wanted to push the limits of her usefulness, and clearly that limit had been met.  

""But I can take you to someone who does!"" She cried excitedly.

Jack raised his eyebrows in surprise. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Interesting</span>, Jack thought, <span class=""bb-i"">perhaps I've judged this monster too soon.</span>

""That would be wonderful, let's go.""</div>"

""Miss, lets go eat a bit.. a young lady like you should eat well!"" She said, as Vampire Vamp closed the coffin Emily had slept in tonight.
""Well.. I guess you are right, lets go."" Emily said, as she started following Vampire Vamp. ""So that boy in the limousine was quite boring, and then you have that idiot Jack... Lets see what more there is around..."" She thought to herself, as she sat down, having another glass of ""Red Wine"" as breakfast. As she heard the Khan speak, Emily sighted. ""I hope i don't have to tag together with that idiot.."" She thought, thinking about the guy who sat with her in the limo. ""You know what Vampire Vamp.. I will finish my drink now, make sure my partner comes here."" She ordered to her Vampire Vamp.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aono was already wake, as he didn't really sleep much, and was listening to Combichrist on his headphones, as he heard loud screaming from outside of his door. Aono sighted, as he put his music off, and he opened the door, realizing his Void Ogre Dragon was standing outside his room. ""Master, follow me to lunch! I have shouted your name over 20 times now!"" The Void Ogre Dragon stated, looking a bit tired. ""Ah... that explains those background screams in my music.."" Aono said, laughing to himself a bit, as he followed his Void Ogre Dragon, sitting down at a table, relaxing for a bit. As he heard the speech by the Khan, he looked around. ""What is her name again... Miwa? I hope i get to tag together with her.."" He thought to himself, looking around a bit, not seeing Miwa. ""Just so you know, im not tagging up with that idiot."" He stated to his Void Ogre Dragon, who started to laugh.</div>"

The pillows were certainly comfy, the boy didn't bother resisting the urge to lull himself into sleeping. The day had been eventful, hopefully tomorrow it would be just as fruitful. The boy gave one big yawn before closing his eyes, drifting into slumber.

When morning came to, the boy was still in his bed, now a mess from him moving all about in his sleep. He could hear a faint rumbling sounds nearby, was his stomach already hungry? He ignored the sound and tried to go back to sleep, unaware of his surroundings and only caring about the plush comfort of the bed, he could hear the faint sound getting louder and sounding more like a growl, Kenta could've sworn he heard something...
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""...ke ..p!""</span></span> the disembodied voice said, in return the boy demanded five more minutes before closing his eyes once more. When the sounds stopped, he murmured small words of thanks and drifted into slumber once more. Then all of a sudden...

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I SAID WAKE UP!!""</span></span> roared Laquari with anger seething throughout his face. His voice boomed so loud that it practically made Kenta jump out of the bed while screaming like a little girl. Slowly getting up on his feet, Kenta hoped that his monster's little stunt wasn't heard anywhere else...Now he was face to face with the tiger-man, who was leering him from eye to eye. Laquari just scoffed, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""This is who is going to lead me into battle? Pathetic.""</span></span> The words of belittlement pierced Kenta hard. Ouch, who knew these monsters had their own distinct personalities? <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Whatever. Lunch is ready, there's no good in a leader that's dead. So get your butt movin'.""</span></span> Kenta grumbled at the harsh tone of his monster, if one is this bad what would happen if the others were here? Shaking his head, he and Laquari headed off to the hall.

When he got there, the Khan had said that in this tournament they are going to be in pairs. Kenta sat in an available chair as he listened inquisitively. Who would be his partner? Are they going to draw raffles? Will it be randomized? Or is it going to be the person next to him? Then, the Khan said that it was...The person they sat in the limousine with. Kenta's face perked up at the thought, it would seem that he and Joseph are going to be a pair for this tournament. He gave a sigh of relief, thank goodness he isn't going to be fighting him. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Tch. He better have something good other than that pretty face of his, smiles ain't worth a damn in battle.""</span></span> Laquari said, as he crossed his arms. Kenta soon began to search for Joseph, eager to get started in dueling alongside him.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
As the sun shone with a radiance that made Miwa chipper, she merrily walked to the hall, Madolche Puddingcess following suit. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""You're awfully happy today, Mistress.""</span></span> inquired the princess with a puzzled look on her face. Miwa just gave a light smile and said <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""W-Well, it's because the tournament is starting! S-Sometimes I get excited when it comes to dueling! It's one of the things I'm good at...""</span></span> the girl said as she entered the hall.

She woke up early beforehand, it was a thing she was used to. The hours prior were nothing extraordinary, just the girl eating breakfast and placing her belongings in the room she would be using for the duration of her stay, it was like a family trip. Minus the family part.

Miwa sat down on a chair as the Khan explained what would happen in the near future. Apparently, they are going to be dueling in pairs! And their partner was to be the one they were with in the limousine. The girl and her princess were taken aback, she had to choose between either Moros or Aono...She couldn't do that, after all, both seemed rather fine, young gentlemen...Even if she did have her doubts with Aono, and all of the bad things he did back then...<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Don't even think about that, Mistress! I refuse to ally with...with...A ruffian of his caliber!""</span></span> Puddingcess with a pout on her face, obviously someone with a regal nature such as herself wouldn't dare dream of pairing with an uncouth man.

The girl frowned a little and looked her in the eye. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Don't be like that, besides...I...I'm sure he said that it was all in the past, he seemed gentle enough, let's go find him.""</span></span> The princess grumbled <span class=""bb-i"">""But...""</span> repeatedly before Miwa told her to stop complaining, with a sigh from the princess, the two ran off in hopes of finding Aono.</div>"

Alexander woke up at the sound of his voice, then said, ""Alright then. Shi En, go wait outside while I get changed."" Shi En complied, and Alexander quickly changed into his standard attire, then proceeded to do other tasks that came with waking up, mainly brushing his teeth, washing his face, yadda yadda. Grabbing his Duel Disk on the way out, he opened the door to his room and said, ""Alright Shi En, lead the way."" 

When he stepped outside, he was not disappointed at all. If anything, he was fascinated by the glorious-looking food on the table. The Khan may have seemed odd, but at least he knew how to eat. As he gathered some of his favorites, as well as others that just looked delicious, the Khan appeared and told everyone that they would be performing tag duels. 

Well, that would certainly prove interesting. Alexander wondered who his partner would be, until the Khan mentioned that the one who he rode in the limo with would be his partner. Alexander guessed that left him with either the eyepatch boy or the mysterious girl. He took a bite out of a croissant and said, ""Shi En, please direct me to my partner."" Shi En bowed, then did as he commanded, with Alexander in tow. When he would meet Ryo again, Alexander would give a friendly wave while still probably eating his breakfast. 

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

Michelle was woken up by a ringing alarm bell. She was still groggy, and fumbled around to turn off the sound before finally doing it. She then looked around to see where she was and spotted a figure next to her bed. She was startled, then realized that it was the hologram of Destiny HERO - Plasma. Fully awake now, she remembered that she was at the tournament. She started to get changed, but then got embarrassed at Plasma watching her, even if he was just a hologram, and went into the bathroom with her change of clothes as well as whatever else she needed. 

Minutes later, she was ready to go out. Plasma walked out of the room and gestured for Michelle to follow. As they walked over to where they needed to go, Michelle marveled at the sight of all the food, which some people already seemed to be enjoying. Her mouth slightly watering, she grabbed a plate and started taking a few items for her breakfast. 

Then there was the explanation that they would be Dueling in tag duels. Michelle was worried, seeing as she rode alone and knew no one, and the explanation to ""ask your monster"" did not help much. She looked at Plasma and said, ""Um, Plasma... please bring me to my partner."" Naturally, Plasma obliged, moving through a path that would bring her to whoever she was to meet.</div>"

Moros grinned, ""Thanks for the wake up call king."" He said and cheerfully got up and quickly changed. The king watched him, silently grinning his skull smile. Moros eagerly opened the door to the hall and gestured, ""Come my king, I bet we'll have a feast worthy of you."" As he guessed the feast was impressive, and Moros quickly filled himself. Apparently they were supposed to find someone and tag team duel with someone. Well Moros was a 3rd wheel so he turned to face his King, ""Lead on."" he said simply and the king weaved a path through the crowds and stopped next to a blood drinking vampire. Moros poked the vampire curiously, ""Oh you're real,"" he said surprised, she looked like one of the monsters milling around. He looked at King and the monster nodded towards the vampire, ""You want me to team up with her? Okay, wanna be friends vampire lady?"" Moros asked curious to hear her talk, maybe she sounded like a vampire as well, he still wasn't quite sure she wasn't just a really good hologram.</div>"

""Ofcourse I am real.. What do you think I am, some kind of monster?"" She thought to himself, still ignoring the guy.
In the blink of a eye, Emily stood behind Moros. ""If you consider your life precious... you better stand still, as you are my next victim."" She said with a dark voice, trying her best to sound like a stereotypical dark vampire. She opened her mouth, and as she is about to bite Moros's neck, she suddenly bursts out in laughter, appearing in front of Moros again, offering her hand for a handshake. ""Nah, I'm just fooling around with you.. "" She said, as her facial expression changed to a more nice one, with a calm voice like she usually uses. ""The name is Emily. Emily Bloodriver. And yeah, lets be friends..."" She said, as she looked at the Undead king standing next to Moros. ""Thats quite the interesting monster you got there... It reminds me of some of my monsters.."" She said, inspecting the King.

Aono was sitting there for a moment, waiting and waiting for somebody to ask him to be his/her partner.
""Nobody seems to be coming.."" Aono thought to himself, while looking around. ""You know... Miwa isn't exactly your type.."" The Void Ogre Dragon whispered into Aono's ear. Aono stood up, and looked Void Ogre Dragon straight into the eye. ""What do you know? You're just some huge ass dragon... What do you know about woman!"" He shouted, keeping his focus on Void Ogre Dragon. ""And I still have more luck with the ladies than you... we both know that."" Void Ogre Dragon said to Aono, as he started to laugh. ""Damnit you stupid dragon... Don't mess around with me!"" Aono shouted, as he turned around. ""You know what... I'll just search her myself then... Stupid dragon."" He said, as he started to look around for Miwa. ""Lets hope that loser doesn't find her first..."" He thought to himself, making his way through the crowd still sitting at their tables. ""I wonder what kind of deck somebody like her runs.."" He thought to himself, as he continued making his way through the halls.</div>"

She was still there.

The Nekroz of Gungnir. It wasn't a lie in the first place. The monster was sleeping there, leaning against the wall like a bodyguard would. The armor made of the original Gungnir, Dragon of the Ice Barrier glistened in the light of the room, even though the Sun was only beginning to rise. They even got that down, huh?

As Fubuki silently moved from her bed and changed her clothes, the monster slowly woke up and, as if recognizing a major error, bowed in apology. Fubuki waved it off; after all, it wouldn't do to have someone feel so subordinate to her. It felt too strange for her to go along with. Changing into her regular outfit from the clothes she slept in, Fubuki and Gungnir quickly walked to the dining hall. Luckily, not many people were awake, so she was free to eat her meal in silence. Eggs, rice, and soy sauce. Simple, but she didn't want to look too greedy shoving her face with all of this heavy American cuisine.

More and more people showed up as time went on. Fubuki went largely ignored, and instead spent most of her time building a different deck. There was probably a different deck that might work better for her when she wasn't using Nekroz, but figuring that out was proving to be... Troublesome.

Then the Khan's announcement came. Well, it didn't matter much- she was already there, doing her own thing off to the side. When he arrived and came on stage, her expression changed to one of slight distaste. So she'd have to work with <span class=""bb-i"">him</span>...

Well, at least she had the ability to converse freely with Gungnir now. Fubuki turned to the monster, who seemed like she just had a giant load taken off her shoulders, before speaking.

""Given your history in the Duel Terminal lore... Is it alright if I just call you 'Emi' for now?"" she asked, not wanting to have to call her 'Gungnir' or some variation thereof all the time. The monster replied with a bitter smile.

""I haven't heard that name in ages... It's fine. Do you need help finding your partner?"" Emi asked earnestly, to which Fubuki shook her head no.

""I've found him already. He gives off this unmistakable sense of uneasiness, even with all of these people here."" she sighed. ""By the way, do you know who Misaki Motorei is?""

Emi was silent for a few seconds before responding.

""Your mother. She was responsible for the development of the M-Tree, wasn't she?""

So she knew. It had taken her ages to find that information out, but this hologram knew. There was definitely something afoot. But that could wait- for now, she had to continue along for the tournament. Walking over to Jack and Lily as they were about to leave, Fubuki casually grabbed Jack's shoulder.

""You're not going to research on your own, right?"" she asked slowly, a sharp edge to her voice.

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
Joseph yawned as he work up. His room was still dark, only illuminated by the presence of Constellarknight Diamond. Well, he had closed the shades and whatnot, so waking up to that would probably be expected. Hopping out of bed, Joseph cracked his shoulders and looked confidently at Diamond.

""Hey. Know what time it is?"" he asked casually before beginning to change.

""...10 AM."" the monster responded. Joseph's eyes widened in shock. 10? His parents would kill him if he ever slept in that late, even on a weekend. No, ESPECIALLY on a weekend. Scrambling to finish changing clothes, Joseph remembered a few seconds later that he was in Regno Ricco for a tournament. Right. His fear was definitely unneeded.

""Any news from our host?""

""Meeting in the banquet hall for brunch. Attendance highly recommended.""

Well, it's not like he wasn't planning to head there anyhow. Opening the shades and taking in the late morning sunlight, Joseph grabbed his Duel Disk and deck and followed Diamond to the hall.


When they arrived, the place was already bustling. Choosing to grab a bowl of chowder and a small panini for his meal, Joseph took a seat. Almost as if on cue, the Khan burst in with his usual grandeur and announced the day's events. A Tag Duel? With Kenta? Huh. This was interesting. Noticing Kenta excitedly searching around (probably for him), Joseph waved to the boy and his monster as he continued eating. Today was gonna be fun.</div>"

Moros blinked puzzledly as the vampire lady suddenly vanished and then he heard her talking behind him, he turned to see her jaws coming towards his neck until she suddenly stopped and told him she was joking. Moros gave a disappointed mental sigh, being a vampire would've been really cool. However his outward smile remained unperturbed and he shook the pro-offered hand replying, ""Sweet we're gonna be great friends, my name is Moros, the Greek god of Doom. Funny isn't it."" he said delighted once again at the irony of his name, he still wasn't convinced that she wasn't a vampire with that pale skin and a last name like Bloodriver. Then she examined his King and Moros felt a little proud, ""This royal robed skeleton is The King of Skull Servants, he seems weak at first, but that's because he relies on the power of his friends to make him strong. Anyway if we're a tag team them we need to find another team to duel."" he finished looking around curiously, from what he could see poeple were still milling around attempting to form teams of their own.</div>"

It would probably dredge up suspicion if they stayed around discussing things like this in the middle of the crowded hall, so it made sense to make a move to go elsewhere.

""...If you're headed there, then fine. But I'd rather not be attacked while alone, so I'll be tagging along. Of course, I'm sure you wouldn't mind, right?"" she asked coolly as she waited for Jack to move. If they could dodge their initial Duels while everyone else was caught up and start prying into the depths of the mansion...

Emi stood by Fubuki, looking at her with a concerned expression. She could understand her master's reasoning and motivation, but at the same time it felt... Conflicting. Though she could intervene, it felt as if there was something holding her back- something making sure that these two reached their destination.

But why?</div>"

The morning breeze played with Aedan’s blonde locks as he eyed the massive front doors of the palace and for a moment he thought back to home and the massive social divide that existed and how much that infuriated him but if he was to play this game with these people he was going to have to do whatever it took to survive. As he pulled the strap of his worn bag back over his shoulder he took in a deep breath and gave the doors a big push and waited as they opened wide for him. The commotion that was inside before he opened the door was brought to a halt when the sun reveled him to those inside; his short blonde hair spiked in the front, his strong lean frame covered by a dirty muscle shirt and thick work pants suitable for hard labor jobs and thick welders gloves on both hands. Walking past everyone in the grand hall, ignoring the not-so-silent whispers of those he ignored, Aedan walked towards the hallway which would lead to his room. As he past numerous upon numerous rooms that were taken until he came across one that there was no mistaking was meant for him.

As he stepped inside the machines around the room groaned to life and the fires under the molten containers flickered to life and their heat began to rise higher and higher until it became sweltering hot. It was like he was home. As he casually dodged sparks from welding machines Aedan threw his modest duffle down on a slab of concrete with a modest mattress and pillow and began digging through it to find his deck and duel disk and prepared himself to go out and deal with the other competitors of this tournament. As he stared at the worn and beaten duel disk and stared at the deck in a box made of duct tape everything came flooding back of everything that brought him to this point. Taking a deep breath, deciding to dismiss his thoughts at the moment, he placed his deck into the homemade duel disk and walked back towards the hall where he assumed that everyone would still be waiting. As he quietly walked back into the room Aedan found an empty place against the wall and propped up against it, taking a moment to read his opponents in this game.</div>"

""Stay close to me, we need to get through this crowd.""

Coordinating his movements with hers, now, Jack weaved his way through the mob of duelist in the hall and towards a set of heavy doors at the far end.  It took mere moments before they had passed the majority of their counterparts, and Jack felt comfortable speaking candidly.

""You're probably wondering what we're up to,"" he said as they walked through those doors and entered another part of the palace.  

""I have a hunch that we need to follow up on.  Things have developed quicker than I anticipated, and I need to know what we're up against with certainty.""  Jack eyed their Duel Monster companions with suspicion.

""Tell me, Fubuki,"" Jack asked, ""Do you trust me?""</div>"

It felt like he was dragging her at times, but given the situation it couldn't be helped. As the crowd thinned, Fubuki breathed a sigh of relief. Seemed like the worst was over... For now.

Jack's statements and question caught her off guard, though. Did she trust him? Well, the man did have his share of secrets, but at this point it was probably safe to say he was a safe enough person to be around. She wasn't naive enough to blindly trust a person, but if she could give her more leads...

""I trust you enough to understand my goals as I will yours. At this point, I'm with you for however long it takes to bring the truth to light. The more information, the better."" she stated to Jack before turning to the set of doors. Ominous was the only work she could use to describe it.

Wouldn't that be a coincidence? <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Isn't that him over there?""</span></span> Laquari exclaimed, pointing to Joseph who was waving at both of them. He quickly ran up to the boy and his monster, motioning for the beast to come along with him.

Approaching the table, Kenta's lips curled into a big smile. He lightly lowered his head to bow at both Joseph and his monster. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Good morning!""</span></span> He paused for a while, thinking that his monster would do the same. Lightly bumping him on the soldier when he wouldn't greet as well. Laquari growled in return, he halfheartedly greeted the other boy. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Yeah, yeah. Whatever...""</span></span> the beastman scoffed before crossing his arms.

Displeased at the crude attitude his monster is giving both him and his friend, Kenta just sighed. While he was there, he got a good glimpse of what Joseph's own monster looked like. It was a dragon-like creature that looked like it was wearing the same armor of the knights the boy specialized in, gold highlights and all. For Kenta, the most noteworthy thing about the creature were its wings, it's like you could see outer space in them. He stared in awe before snapping back to reality.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Ah, it would seem that...We...are partners, Joseph!""</span></span> Although he was slightly anxious, Kenta's enthusiasm overpowered those doubts and he was more than ready to get started with dueling.

""Mistress, isn't that the ruffian over there?!"" Madolche Puddingcess cried out as she pointed towards a table. Miwa could see that near him was the Void Ogre Dragon, it definitely looked terrifying...What more if it was close up, near both of them? Both Miwa and the princess shuddered at the thought as they slowly made their way towards Aono and the dragon.

Then, just as they were on their way to both of them, he stood up and walked into the hallways. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Ugh, see?! A plebeian such as himself walk off as we gracefully stride towards him? Have he no manners or shame?!""</span></span> Madolche Puddingcess said with a furious tone, Miwa tried her best to calm her down before she could cause any commotion. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Now, now...I think he must not have seen us...Let's just follow him.""</span></span> Grumbling under breath, the princess followed her mistress into the hallways where Aono was.

After making a few rounds and giving chase to the boy, Miwa finally caught up to him and exclaimed, ""A-Aono! Y...Y-You're going to be my partner, right?"" She was uneasy with the dragon in their presence and the princess herself hid behind the girl while slowly peeking.</div>"

The only reason he would bring that up now...

""If you're asking, you should know the story already. It was a big uproar- an entire plane full of passengers disappeared, but no crash was detected. The wreckage was found a few hours later with no trace of any dead or any survivors. My mother... She was on that plane when it went down. There's something I'm clearly missing something here, but she wasn't the only important person there on that plane. I need to know the truth behind the incident, but all of these cover-ups make it difficult."" she said, staring at Jack. She probably sounded insane, but that didn't matter. If she was going to tell the truth, might as well go all the way... Right?

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
""Hey, Kenta! Mornin'!"" Joseph replied, looking at both him and Laquari as Diamond made its own silent greeting of nodding his head. Well, he wasn't that talkative anyhow.
""Don't worry about Diamond here- he's a bit less talkative than most. Anyways... Yeah, we're partners now! That's some freaky timing, eh? Actually, since have the chance now... Want to see if we can tune up your deck before we get into the heat of things? I noticed yesterday that your Extra Deck wasn't complete, so I was hoping we could remedy that situation. The Main Deck is also something we could work on, if you'd like."" Joseph said as he pulled out a small pack of cards he had gathered overnight from the collection he had brought along. 

""For a start, take these."" he said, handing over a few rank 4 XYZ monsters to Kenta. ""Your Extra Deck is a go-to method to get out of a bind, so it's nice to be ready with responses like these.""</div>"

He then started to look around the place, saying, ""I wonder who we'll be fighting against.""

He had only been there a short time but he was already very much aware of the types of people he was dealing with, he had seen most of these monsters in his card shop back home and these were some of the most powerful he had ever seen. This was going to be a tough fight but if he was going to reach his goals then he was going to have to be every last one of them in order to come out on top. 

Aedan’s thoughts were interrupted by the presence of one such monster a Destiny Hero-Plasma if he wasn’t mistaken and not a moment after he noticed the monster the quiet voice of a teenage girl caught his attention,

<span class=""bb-i"">”Um, hi…my names Michelle what’s yours?”</span>

It was odd to have someone come up to him so casually, he was more used to people assaulting him for no apparent reason.

""I actually knew nothing about your mother before I asked the question.  It was a lucky guess.""  Jack explained.  ""Your father, Itsuki Motorei, correct?  He is a senior team member of the Starlight Shipping company, yes?  There was a whole wealth of information for me to find about that.  The academy your first tournament paid for, it was their idea was it not?""  

""But I couldn't find anything about your mother.  I thought it was odd, myself.  I figured something must have happened to her, and I also suspected it might have happened some time ago.  But I couldn't determine why someone would go to such great lengths to cover it up, which appeared to be the case.  Not even so much as an obituary.""

Jack let out a soft sigh.  ""Forgive me, Fubuki, I had hoped I was over analyzing the situation.  Now I understand my suspicion was justified.  I needed to know.""  

""I'm sorry for your loss,"" he said dolefully.  ""I understand why your so hesitant around me.  You have every reason to be.  I'm a valuable asset, but I am not your friend.  Is that correct?""  Jack asked her, looking straight into her eyes.  

""Despite what you think of me, I want you to know that I do in fact trust you.  I just had to be certain.  If you don't believe me, I intend to prove it.""

""Listen carefully,"" he whispered, ""this information if extremely dangerous and no one else can know about it.  Can you promise me this?""  Jack's voice was laced with a sincerity it had not known in years.  But there was something else to it as well.  It was fear.  

It was a bold move, what he was offering her right now.  He wasn't sure which would be more precarious: if Fubuki declined or not.

And Jack was terrified.</div>"

Emily looked at the King of Skull Servants once again. ""So he kinda avenges his family.. Yeah, That does make sense.""
""Anyways, this is Vampire Vamp.."" She says, as she points to the monster who is standing next to Emily, who bows towards Moros.
The Vampire Vamp looked a bit like Emily if you looked well. ""I got this card from my father... Alone she is quite weak, but once I summon another Vampire, I can equip any monster my opponent controls that has more Attack to it, and it gains all of its Attack power. "" She said, smiling. 

""Alright, lets go find a tag team to battle."" She said, looking around searching a tag team to battle.

Aono was walking through the halls, unable to find Miwa.
""Damn... Where is she.."" He thought to himself, as he turned towards Void Ogre Dragon.
""Wait a second.. You are supposed to know where Miwa is! Why don't you help me out!"" Aono ordered the dragon, who started to laugh mockingly.
""Why would I help you?! Its way too much fun to see you running around, not knowing where to go."" The dragon said, as he started rolling on the ground. Aono sighed, as he continued walking for a while, but after a while, he was about to give up. ""Damnit... Maybe she already got eliminated by the Khan?"" He thought to himself. Suddenly, he heard the voice of Miwa behind him, and as he turned around, he saw Miwa.
""Don't tell me you were chasing me, alright?"" Aono claimed, as he facepalmed himself. ""Anyways, yes Miss Miwa... We are gonna be tag partners.. if thats okay with you..."" Aono said, as the irritated look on his face turned to a friendly smile. ""First of all... This young lady is way too gentle for you. Second of all.. She looks way to weak... Third of all.. She isn't your type."" Void Ogre Dragon said to Aono, totally ignoring the fact that Miwa could hear him clearly. ""You know... I don't care what you think..."" Aono said, as he turned towards his dragon. ""But if you continue on like this, we will make a special episode of Will it Blend? Yu-Gi-Oh card edition!"" Aono shouted, as he turned back towards Miwa.

That would be...Nice.""</span></span> Kenta said while taking the cards in his hand. Now that he thought about it, since the fighting is about to happen sooner or later, fixing his deck would be a great idea. Taking his deck out, the boy gave it a light shake as he handed it to Joseph. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I don't trust him, kid. For all we know he's putting some sort of trash in your deck.""</span></span> Laquari contemptuously said as he eyed Joseph and Constellar Diamond with a weary look.

Kenta just elbowed his monster lightly, telling him that he should stop being serious. Besides, in times like these, isn't the best course of action to trust your partner? In return, the tiger-man gave no response and shrugged, perhaps he was being a stick in the mud.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Miwa had a confused look on her face when Aono asked her if she was chasing him, to which she replied by giving a light nod. The boy seems to be a tad...uneasy with being partners with her, the girl couldn't blame her, with partners pairing out of the blue who knows what deck he uses? Would it even work about between them? Suddenly, the dragon that accompanied him began to say all these words about her. Miwa just felt bad and embarrassed, a part of her agreeing to the statements made by the beast, but behind her...Madolche Puddingcess wouldn't take these blasphemous words directed to her mistress! She practically darted herself in front of the boy and the ferocious dragon, her face red with anger. With a very furious tone, she began to shout a few words of her own. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Gentle? Gentle?! I'll have you know my Mistress has dominated battlefields consisting of sword-wielding men, masked ruffians, walls of stone and dragons of your kind using PLUSH DOLLS!! Does that sound gentle to you?</span></span> She puffed her cheeks and pouted, about to continue her assault of words. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""And another thing, weak? Need I remind you that my Mistress uses nothing but plush dolls to fight but still manages to claim victory with a bunch of animals, a butler and a maid! In spite of all of that, we still manage to look adorable!""</span></span>

The girl's face too was red, but not out of anger...but out of embarrassment...Her monster couldn't control her temper and look where it got her. At this point he probably doesn't want to partner up anymore as the princess' assault was not done yet. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""And what makes you think that your Master is anything to be proud of anyway? Does he even have proper education when he's been committing acts of crime? Sorry, but my Mistress doesn't partake in endeavors of peasants much less hooligans such as yourself.""</span></span> With her anger being released, the princess turned her face back to Miwa, who was covering her face with her hands.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I...I'm so sorry.""</span></span> The girl hung her head down in shame, this is it. She's going home, she's going solo, she's dead. Now she's done it.</div>"

I can't hope to rely on my own strength alone- that I know.""

But Jack's next set of statements was definitely not like him. Jack, that strange man who always put up an act to slip around and tell half-truths... Was being sincere. Well, it could probably considered kindness for kindness, in a sense.

""At the moment, you're the only one outside my family that I know of that is aware of the situation. If I gave your information away like that, then what kind of person would that make me? I'll trust you on this, then- what is it that you want to keep a secret like you are now?

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
""Oh, come on now."" Joseph said, looking as Laquari as if he wasn't thinking everything through. ""If I did something like that, then I'd have an even lower chance of getting through this stage.""

Taking Kenta's deck, Joseph immediately sorted the cards by spells, traps and monsters before laying each section out on top of the table he was sitting at.

""How about this? You two can watch as I edit the deck. That'll get rid any suspicions you have, right?""

Not waiting for an answer, Joseph immediately got to work adding and removing cards from the deck. It was a practiced set of actions- he had gotten so used to moving cards around to build decks that it almost felt like second nature to him now.

""There we go."" he said, brushing off his hands as the last of his changes was completed. ""Removed some clutter, finished the Tenki playset, added a Bear and two Tensu, triple Wolfbark... Actually, it might be better to check those changes out yourself."" he said gesturing to the deck laid out on the table. ""You get how Wolfbark and Bear work wonders in the deck, right?""</div>"

What do you know, you were wrong for once.</font></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""yellow"">Your opinion means nothing.  Turn right here.</font></span>

Ava Kore found herself speaking to ""the voice"" once again.  And as always, it was telling her what to do.  And as always, she trusted its guidance; it hadn't let her down yet...except maybe how it told her to attend a small tournament yesterday after her flight instead of finding her lift to the bigger one.  Ava wasn't even really sure how she got where she was now; it was a part of town she'd never seen before, and all the voice told her about how it knew where it was leading her was that ""spirits leave tracks.""  Whatever that was supposed to mean.
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">The previous day...</span></span></div>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""yellow"">There is no need to be there, yet.  This ""Khan"" will have to wait, as it appears there is a small tournament being held near here.</font></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""red"">What do you expect me to do about that?</font></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""yellow"">It should be obvious.  Crush the competition, and turn whoever meets you in the finals into a broken, lifeless husk.</font></span>
<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~~~~~~~~~</div>
Well.  Seemed the voice's guidance, as always, led Ava in the right direction.  Probably following whatever tracks it talked about, the voice had led Ava to a large mansion.  The people stationed outside seemed to recognize her, and even led the way in.  Even so, the voice's guiding words didn't cease.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""yellow"">I sense a powerful spirit.  Turn left down this hallway, now.</font></span>

Following the advice, Ava turned left.  And there she saw a boy.  One boy.  A dark-haired boy.  The voice had stopped telling her where to go, so this must have been the source of the spirit it felt.  Knowing how the voice operated, it would tell her to turn any threat into a husk.  But first Ava would have to assess if he was even a threat in the first place; that power was something she preferred not using whenever possible.

Stepping up within speaking range, Ava cleared her throat and made her request very clear in what she said.  <font color=""red"">""I would like to duel you.""</font>  That was it.  Nothing more, nothing less.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">”Alright, lets team up…”</span>

""If you could just shut your mouth for once... Geez.."" He said, as he looked back at Miwa.
""Pardon my Void Ogre Dragon for being such an idiot... He can't help it."" He claimed, as he looked at Miwa's duel spirit.
""As for you... I might not be the smartest or most gentle person around, thats true."" He claimed, as he looked down. ""But atleast I am smart enough to realize you can't judge people by their looks! That statement made you look as dumb as my Void Ogre Dragon"" He claimed to the living Madolche monster. Aono looked back at Miwa. ""I can't blame you for your duel spirit being an idiot, because mine is even worse... So don't worry.. "" He said, as he noticed Miwa was getting quite ashamed. ""You know, I am interested in all styles of duel... And I wonder how somebody like you duels..."" He said, inspecting Miwa once again. ""As for us tagging together... Both our favourite monsters are idiots... So thats one thing right?"" Aono said with a smile on his face, offering Miwa a handshake.

Emily walked behind Moros in her usual slowish walking pace.
""You know... I am actually looking for strong duelists... So don't disappointment me."" She calmy said, as she kept following him.
Emily noticed that Moros jumped 2 other duelists, who were standing next to their favorite monsters, seeming to be in conflict.
""Well well.. What do we have here..."" She said, inspecting both duelists with a blank stare.
She started to walk around Void Ogre Dragon, inspecting his details. ""Thats quite the strong monster... Void Ogre Dragon right?"" She said, as she kept inspecting it. ""It seems like quite the powerful and epic monster..."" She said, as she turned towards Miwa's monster.
Emily started to laugh. ""This thing however? How can you even call this a monster? Something like this is a disgrace to the entire game of Yu-Gi-Oh."" She stated, inspecting the Madolche monster. ""Oh god I am so afraid, please don't tickle me to death!"" She sarcastically said, as she turned towards Miwa herself. ""Give me one good reason why I would even waste my time on you..""

Michelle gave it some thought as she looked around, then something caught her eye. ""Hey, it looks like there's going to be a tag duel,"" Michelle said, pointing in the direction of Aono, Moros, Emily, and Miwa. ""Maybe we should check it out,"" Michelle suggested.</div>"

As the other boy removed this and that from his deck, his hands working like there's no tomorrow. 

When he was done, he grabbed the newly-constructed deck and began to examine the changes. Although a part of him wasn't all too pleased with the changes, he did welcome the new faces that he'll probably being seeing a lot once he and his friend begin dueling. Thanking him for all his effort, Kenta bowed his head, Laquari just scoffed and thanked the other boy while trying to cover up his pride. Joseph began to ask Kenta something about how Wolfbark and Bear would work in his deck.

He looked at the two cards from his deck and began to examine them. Although the print made it a tad difficult to decipher, his monster read it aloud for him. Kenta slowly began reaching a conclusion, although still unsure, he answered Joseph. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I think that...It is because they compliment each other, correct? With Bear, I can get...Tensu or Tenki to the field...quickly or send them to destroy a monster.""</span></span> 
The boy scratched his chin for a moment, trying to gather his thoughts in order to continue his conclusion. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Wolf can summon...Bear, himself or...Laquari, I think?""</span></span>

The boy was unsure of himself, he doesn't even know if anything he said made sense. But Joseph wanted an answer, so he gave him one.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Miwa's composure slowly began to reform itself into something more...calm, she was at ease again and she couldn't help but agree with what Aono said. So much for a princess...Talk about a royal pain. The frown she had before had formed into a smile and she giggled, listening to what the boy had said about his dragon and how both of their monsters seem to be...dim. Certainly not the brightest.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Hmph.""</span></span> The princess pouted as she diverted her eyes away from the boy, taking his words to heart but not accepting it. Without another word, she began to stay beside her mistress, who was looking down on her with eyes full of disappointment. Miwa slowly took out her hand to accept Aono's handshake, that is until...

An eerie woman suddenly appeared before them, dressed in black and her gaze certainly piercing, yet blank. The woman started to circle Aono and examined his dragon, eyeing it like some sort of predator having captured their prey. She gave it nothing short of praise. Miwa could feel a chill around her when the woman turned to both her, and Puddingcess, she wanted to leave but her wobbly and shaky legs were practically frozen in the presence of the woman. Things started to turn for the worse when she began to laugh. She insulted the very existence of her monster! At that moment, Miwa's ego practically shattered like glass...Her mind practically telling her to <span class=""bb-i"">""get out of there ASAP""</span> but the woman's assault didn't stop. The princess having just had an outburst earlier, could feel the frustration inside of her rising to dangerous levels once more. It was one thing to insult her mistress, but things start to change when it's directed to both of them. Especially her. 

The princess wanted nothing more than to challenge them head-on, prove them that a bunch of stuffed toys can send her sorry behind smacking any day. But Miwa on the other hand was still shaking with fear and anxiety, when she was posed with the question, she tried to get an answer in, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""A-Ah...W-Well, th...that is to say that...Excuse me!""</span></span> Not being able to handle the pressure anymore, the girl darted out of the hallway and ran away from the group of people, wanting to escape into her room. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I guess a leech is still a leech, no matter how regal it dresses or acts.""</span></span> Puddingcess said, giving chase to her mistress, hoping she'd be fine.</div>"

""Hmmmm, King point me to more opponents!"" Faithfully the skeletal lord pointed his crooked finger at Michelle and Aedan. ""Good now go attempt to comfort Miwa and report back to me when your finished!"" The king gave a mock salute with that permanant skeletal smile of his and went off to attempt to console Miwa. His robes flourished behind him blowing in an invisible wind as he chased after Miwa, ""Please fair maiden pay no mind to the vampire, her words are mere trifles and you should pay them no mind, Puddingcess seems to know you well perhaps you should take heed of her words. Meanwhile Moros headed towards the pair that the king had indicated, ""Try two, I challenge you poeple.... to a DUEL!"" he said excitedly, they both looked to be made of sterner stuff than Miwa sweet and gentle as she was, and he was sure they wouldn't refuse his request.

That... That was definitely not the kind of revelation she had expected him to put forth. But, as he had stated, telling her that had given rise to so many more questions. But that was exactly what he had prepared for, right?

""...Somewhat. If that's simply an alias you go by and you were invited here personally... Your true identity has to be important enough not to divulge here, correct? I won't be so rude to ask that of you right now, but I expect I'll learn in the near future."" she said as she turned towards the doorway. ""Is there something inside you need to look at?""

<div class=""bb-h1""></div>
""Well, you've got Bear's utility down pat... For the most part. Wolfbark's a bit more versatile, since any Beast-Warrior works. Sadly, their effects are negated, so you can't tag anyone in or out. You can go into Tiger King or any generic rank 4, though, so that works."" Joseph added before rising from his seat. He had kept Kenta waiting for a tad too long, and it was probably about time to start a duel.

""But... Yeah. Think that's about enough tinkering for now. How about we find someone to test ourselves against, huh?"" he asked, looking around before turning back to Kenta.

""Actually, you wanna choose? I'm bad with this kind of thing, to be honest.""</div>"

""Huh?""
 
Lyall was roused up from the doze he had fallen in while observing the other duelists form tag teams. You'd think that someone who had apparently been energized by the restful sleep they had gotten would have been more alert and unable to fall asleep again, but... what can you do you know? He rubbed his eyes as he came back into full awareness, looked up, and noticed a strange, black haired girl with an eye patch staring at him expectantly. Was she looking to be partners or-
She is challenging you, rang a familiar voice within Lyall's head. Kerykeion. Lyall stood and assessed the girl once more before nodding his head in recognition of her challenge. Hopefully she would be a more worthy and skilled duelist than the Archfiend loser he had faced last night. He walked around the table to be on the same side Ava was on, then took several paces back to provide a reasonable size for the dueling field. Extending his arm, his duel disk activated and ceased to look like a bracelet.
 
""I suppose this is a good way as any to scout for partners. Challenge accepted, let's duel.""
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Be wary around this one, Kerykeion spoke again, I sense a powerful darkness emanating from this girl. The source of this undoubtedly lies within her own deck...</span>

Lyall silently nodded at his monster's words while he drew his starting five cards. According to the holographic coin flip, he'd be taking turn one for the duel. Fine by him, his current hand was great and would easily allow him to summon one of his aces this very turn. Lyall smirked as he played his first card.
""Let's start things off quickly! I'll summon Evilswarm Castor to the field in attack position!""
The air before them shimmered as a tall and bulky monster appeared on the field, the one visible eye on its face glowing a fierce red as it raised its weapon to create a hazy portal in the air. A second monster known as Steelswarm Sting flew out from it at the exact moment Lyall played its respective card on his duel disk.
""In case you're wondering how I normal summoned two monsters during the same turn, Castor provides me with the additional summon of an Lswarm monster whenever he hits the field. My summons won't just stop there however, I'll go ahead and create the Overlay Network to bring forth a new monster more fearsome than these two! Castor, Sting!""
The portal in the air grew larger as Castor and Sting jumped into it, changing its color from a murky purple to an ominous black, blue, and red. A chill seemed to sweep through the area as black fog curled downwards from the portal, partially obscuring the draconian creature emerging from it. Two icy wings flapped strongly to clear away the mist, and with a belligerent screech, Evilswarm Ophion proudly announced its presence as odd looking ice began to spread out onto the field from under its body, a sign of its first ability coming into play for the duel. The mirror on its back sparked with power as Lyall detached the XYZ material, Steelswarm Sting, to use Ophion's second ability to search out an Infestation card from his deck. As Sting headed to the Graveyard, it made the motion of tossing one card to Lyall, and the duelist revealed the card to be Infestation Ripples. He set three cards on the field, leaving only one remaining in his hand.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">The infected Ice Barrier Dragon, Ophion. A wise choice, the girl better hope to have a response to it... and to whatever other surprises you laid down on the field for her...</span>
 
""That'll mark the end of my turn,"" Lyall said as he crossed his arms.

---
<font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">It seems like a challenge to overcome that kind of a monster.</span></font>
<font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">That dragon is a unique foe...but its power is only worth noting while it keeps your plays limited.  Remove it, now.</span></font>
<font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">Understood.</span></font>  Drawing her own five cards, plus a sixth for the draw of the turn, Ava looked over her hand.  Not good stuff.  This was a set-up hand at best; only one monster didn't help that much.  Setting the cards down as she called them out, Ava said <font color=""red"">""I'll start by placing one monster in face-down defense position.  After that, I will set two trap cards, then activate the spell card Foolish Burial.""</font>  The image of an empty grave appeared on the battlefield, as Ava explained.  <font color=""red"">""This card lets me kill off one monster directly from the deck, and I choose Mezuki.""</font>  As the card ejected from Ava's deck into the graveyard zone, the holographic image of Mezuki fell from above, into the empty grave before it filled in with dirt, then vanished.
<font color=""red"">""Your turn.""</font>

---
""Activate trap card, Infestation Ripples!"" Lyall shouted at the end phase of Ava's turn. His lifepoints dropped from 8000 to 7500 as a small amount of energy was flowed from Lyall to Ophion, prompting the creature to turn to the right and slash its sharp tail along the icy floor. It put its face near the cut and breathed out an eerie, tainted power that seeped into the cut and traveled downwards into the faintly visible body of Steelswarm Sting. The monster was revived by the dark energy, and as the ice broke and shattered, it shot out with a loud buzz onto the field. 
 
""Now it's my turn!""
Lyall drew his next card, and while it wasn't a bad one by any means, he decided he'd change up his hand a bit. Another face down trap card activated and from it emerged the dead husk of a Steelswarm Cell. A black fog erupted from its body and shot out towards Lyall's hand to snatch one of his cards.
""No use for this monster at the moment, so I'll use Infestation Infection's effect to send it back to the deck in exchange for another one of my Lswarms.""

---
<font color=""red"">""You'll only get whatever is on top of your deck.  Activate trap card: Dark Bribe!  This negates your card for the bribe of a free draw.  Enjoy your card.""</font>  From the face-up image of Dark Bribe shot a large coin, which smashed into the visage of Infestation Infection, shattering it, and prompting the top card of Lyall's deck into his hand.
---

""Hmph, well done...""
Lyall could only watch as Ava's trap card negated the effect of Infestation Infection, causing the Evilswarm Thunderbird enveloped within the fog to be lost somewhere within his deck and essentially leaving him with only one card in hand... at least until the Dark Bribe resolved completely and allowed him to draw a card.
""This could come into use sooner or later, actually,"" he thought as he looked back onto the field. ""Unfortunately for you, Thunderbird wasn't the only monster I had in my hand. I usually only summon this one at later points in my duels, but I guess it'll be making an early visit this time around.""
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Am I up?</span>

""Obviously. Come, Evilswarm Kerykeion.""
 
Kerykeion floated down onto the field and crossed both its staffs in an intimidating manner, staring Ava down with a piercing gaze that seemed to be trying to look directly into her soul. As cliche as that sounded, that's exactly what Kerykeion was trying to do, and what it saw... well, it didn't exactly like what it saw, though at the same time it felt that there was no imminent danger to alert his summoner of.

---
<font color=""red"">""I don't know what that monster does, but I don't trust him.  Activate trap card: Breakthrough Skill!  This card negates one monster's effects for the rest of this turn, and I choose Evilswarm Kerykeion.""</font>
---

""Um... okay."" 
Kerykeion looked back at Lyall as Ava activated the trap card, but the duelist simply shrugged and allowed the card to do its thing. The image of a grey, reptile-like beast emerged from the trap and lunged at Kerykeion, slashing at it with large claws that left burning scars across its body. Kerykeion clutched its chest in pain, but was otherwise alright and still capable of fighting. It stood up straight and crossed its staffs in front of itself, awaiting Lyall's commands along with the rest of the Lswarms. There was a very brief pause as Kerykeion looked over at Ophion and Sting, and, sensing that Lyall was about to order an attack, gave a signal for them to prepare themselves.
 
""Reading my mind again, huh?"" Lyall commented with a small grin. ""If you're so eager then, Kerykeion, attack the face down!""
Kerykeion pointed its Cadeucus staff at the face down and fired a fiery beam at it.
""And the unfortunate monster is...""

---
<font color=""red"">""The unfortunate monster is my Pyramid Turtle,""</font> Ava said as the hologram of the turtle under the pyramid gave in and died on the spot.  <font color=""red"">""But now his effect activates.  When Pyramid Turtle is destroyed in battle, I'm able to summon one more Zombie-Type monster directly from my deck.  And this time, I choose Plaguespreader Zombie, in defense position!""</font>  The pyramid on the turtle's back burst open, and in its place stood a round-bodied zombie visibly emitting a thin purple haze from his body.  He was in a defensive stance, covering his small face with his large arms.

---
""I've still got two more attacks left to order! Sting, kill the zombie to clear the path for Ophion!""
The fiendish wasp flew towards the Plaguespreader Zombie at a high speed, though instead of attacking it head on it darted around the monster at the last second to deliver its sting from behind. Sting's needle tore through the zombie's body before it tossed it aside and flew back to its spot on Lyall's side. 
 
""Ophion, your turn....""
 
The infected dragon screeched as it reared up to unleash its poisoned, icy breath upon Ava. The stream struck her head on, dropping her lifepoints by 2550 points and leaving her at 5450. Ophion settled down,  and Lyall ended his turn by setting one card face down in his S/T zone.

""Your move once again...""</div>"

With a sigh, Jack pushed onwards through the large doors before them.  

Beyond the threshold was what appeared to be a private casino.  Slot machines lined the walls, there were poker and blackjack tables, craps and roulette, and of course The Khan's standard Duel Monster entourage ran it all.  

In the very center of the room, in all of his masculinity, stood the Khan himself throwing dice.

""God damnit, Lily,"" Jack exclaimed.  ""This isn't the men's room!""

""But sir, you wanted to see the maps!"" She shrieked.  ""Master Khan is the only one who can show you those.""

""Thats quite a strange girl... I believe i saw her before?"" Aono was thinking to himself.
As Emily was having her speech, he couldn't help but feel irritated, especially when Miwa ran away.
""You know... You can insult me as much as you want... But what you just did to her.."" Aono said, as he looked at Emily, full of anger.
""What you just did is unexpected!"" He screamed, as he sprinted at Emily, trying to punch her, but Emily just stepped aside, and tripped Aono, making him fall face first onto the floor, making her laugh.
""Foolish boy... Now go get her ass back here so we can duel!"" She ordered Aono, as she turned around, noticing her partner was gone.
""Where has he gone..."" She asked herself, as he noticed him talking to other duelists in the distance.
""Boy, get your partner back if you want revenge for what I said to her... as for me, I am getting mine back.."" She said, as she facepalmed, running towards her partner.
""Well... I guess I truely have no choice..."" Aono thought, as he started to chase Miwa.
""Miss Miwa! Calm down, we will take our revenge on her for what she said!"" Aono shouted to Miwa.

Meanwhile, Emily catched up to Moros.
""Follow me, I am sure she will still duel us... Believe me!"" She said with a sadistic smile on her face, pointing towards their original location.</div>"

With the other boy standing up, Kenta's enthusiasm switched turned on once more and he was feeling pumped like a kid getting ready for the first day of school. Laquari chuckled, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""It's about time...Can't wait to start killing things.""</span></span> The tiger said with a lecherous grin on his face.

Everything's all set ready but, where do they start? Who would be viable to fight against? Joseph just said that he's not good at picking duels with people, but neither was he! Scratching the back of his head, Kenta and Laquari looked around and survyed the room carefully...Hopefully there's someone that's free for dueling.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""...Eh...Not good with this thing either.""</span></span> Kenta gave a slight chuckle as he turned to Joseph with an embarrassed look on his face.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
Running behind the halls were watery eyes, Miwa ran and ran past numerous duelists with their monsters. Who was she kidding? The woman was right, her monster isn't worth anything in this tournament. She could have chosen something more fearsome, something that wasn't a plush toy...Stopping her legs for a moment, Miwa panted and heaved, she certainly ran quite a long mile. Catching her breath, the girl looked up at the ceiling, her eyes still teary, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I'm not going to win this thing...I'm so sorry...I've failed you...""</span></span> Her head hung low as her self-esteem crumpled like a piece of paper. With her mind not exactly focused on her surroundings, Miwa found herself shrieking when a purple-clothed skeleton appeared beside her.

Her back against the wall and not having recovered from the events that took place earlier, Miwa was scared. This skeletal being must be a monster of someone, recognizing the zombie as not just <span class=""bb-i"">Skull Servant</span> but as <span class=""bb-b"">The King!</span> She didn't expect him to have such a...Refined disposition, it must go with being king after all. The king did nothing but console the girl and reassure her. She still had her laments, not fully heeding his words. She bowed to the skeletal king and thanked him, Miwa slowly walked towards the direction where her room was...or at least she thinks it's the right direction. However, she stopped on her tracks when familiar voices were trailing behind her.

A sense of relief filled her when she saw Puddingcess as well as Aono. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Geez. For someone so fragile, you run fast.""</span></span> The princess said, her hands on her hips as she scolded Miwa. The girl apologized to the princess, and to Aono too. He mentioned something about taking revenge for what the woman had said to her earlier but she was reluctant...After all, she was right. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Listen here, Mistress! I didn't come alive for a big crybaby to treat me as some sort of comfort device. You and I shall be victorious! I assure you, so please wipe those tears away.""</span></span> Puddingcess said, her voice in a commanding tone. With her composure having finally recovered, Miwa wiped her tears with her hanky and faced Aono. She still had her doubts but he was the closest thing she had to company at this point, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Revenge is a strong word...But, I'll be your partner.""</span></span> The girl gave a faint smile to the boy, hopefully with their combined efforts, they'll beat that woman.</div>"

Just the card she wanted to see at a time like this.  <font color=""red"">""First I activate the trap card in my graveyard; Breakthrough Skill.  This time, however, I will be targeting your Evilswarm Ophion.""</font>  The card moved from Ava's graveyard as a semi-transparent shard similar to the one that had struck Kerykeion just earlier dug itself into Ophion's back.  <font color=""red"">""Now with my summoning unrestricted, I activate the effect of Plaguespreader Zombie in my graveyard.""</font>

Sending a card in her hand to the top of her deck, Ava explained <font color=""red"">""This monster refuses to die even when killed, and for a single card, he'll have his second chance.""</font>  Afterwards, the image of Plaguespreader appeared on the field.  He was again in a defensive posture.  <font color=""red"">""And now for the turnaround of this duel.  I activate the spell card Polymerization.  By fusing the Plaguespreader Zombie on my field, and the Zombie Master in my hand, I summon the ultimate monster.  Rise from the depths, soul-stealer, Dragonecro Nethersoul Dragon!""</font>
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""yellow"">Finally...</font></span>  The image of a dragon's clawed hand reached out from beneath, gripping the ground and pulling forth the rest of the dragon with it.  Dragonecro Nethersoul Dragon.  After it did so, however, it's eyes began glowing a bright yellow.  Observers who paid attention could probably notice a similar glow from beneath Ava's eyepatch.  Shit just got real.
<font color=""red"">""Now, Dragonecro, commence the attack!  Target Evilswarm Ophion!""</font>

""I don't think I'll be letting anything happen to my dragon,"" Lyall exclaimed as he stretched out his left hand towards the field. One of the two set cards on the field slowly rose upwards to reveal a trap card.  ""Compulsory Evacuation Device!""  As the giant Netherdragon stretched out its deadly claws to kill Ophion, Evilswarm Kerykeion dashed in front of its ally and forcefully clashed its staffs together, producing a vortex of dark power that stopped the demon right in its flight. Kerykeion's eyes glowed a powerful red as it pushed forward with its entire body, causing the energy to release a powerful, outward force that sent Dragonecro roaring angrily back to Ava's extra deck.

""So that's what you had in there,"" Lyall said, near threateningly. He somewhat understood now why Kerykeion had told Lyall not activate his set Pandemic to protect Ophion from the graveyard trap; the Nether dragon was apparently something it wanted Lyall to see. For what though, he didn't know.  ""Seems like you used up all your resources up bringing out that... parasite...""

Kerykeion floated over to its summoner's side and pointed his attention to his left hand. Oh? Looks like the crest was glowing. No wonder things had suddenly seemed a lot more hostile with the duel. He wondered if Ava... nah, he made sure he got rid of those kind of people in his city a long time ago. Oh well, even if she was, he'd make sure he'd finish her off by turning her own game against her.

""Anything else? I think my monsters are more eager to get at your lifepoints now with this little stunt!""

Ava's eyes widened.  This...did not go at all as she'd planned it.  Maybe that detour was a good idea after all.  Swallowing down the tension in her threat, Ava said <font color=""red"">""I...end my turn.""</font>

Lyall wordlessly drew his next card but didn't even bother to look at it. Ava was wide open for an attack, and with Kerykeion, Sting, and Ophion on the field, they had just enough power to bring her life points down to 0. 

""Remember,"" Kerykeion said, ""If you reduce her lifepoints to 0 with a Shadow Duel up, you'll be taking her life with them.""

""I'm aware, but considering the previous turn and her current expression I'm pretty sure she had that in mind for me as well!""  The monster nodded and faced Ava again.   ""Kerykeion, Sting, Ophion.... finish this.""

Raising its staffs, Kerykeion harnessed its own power and that of Sting's and began tranferring them to Ophion. The dragon roared proudly as it felt itself become filled with even more power, and in one stream of icy breath from its jaws, it brought Ava's lifepoints down to zero.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Rags to riches describes this town perfectly- it's where dreams are crushed and, in some rare cases, made a reality. Do you have what it takes to participate in the 100th Annual Battle City Tournament? Open to the media for the first time since it's construction, the Shambala Palace in it's entirety will be the battlegrounds for this battle of champions. ""Hello, I will be your gracious host for this event. Me? I am known as The Khan. I dabble in Duel Monsters and I am being sponsored by Industrial Illusions to host this event. There will be 16 packs distributed throughout the public each with a blank card in it. Whoever receives this card can trade it in at the store they bought it from and redeem it for a plane ticket to my palace to participate in the tournament. The rest of the participants will be personally invited by Industrial Illusions. Don't worry, I know who are and if you are good enough... No matter how 'casual' you may be. Khan, out."" *winks*</span>

This is a Yugioh RP for Battle City's 100th Anniversary Tournament! As with all RPs, there's more than meets the eye here... But that'll be introduced at a later time. Participants in the tournament have multiple ways to duel. One way to duel is to just do a collab! Decide a winner before the duel or after and just make it a very fun and dramatic duel, each drawing the perfect cards, etc.! Other options, such as live duels or duels initiated online are also available, though I'd prefer to see and record the duels as they take place. Of course, dramatization is highly recommended (just add some dialogue and thoughts I will record it so we can mark times and such.)  This tournament is double elimination and there are certain ways to get back in the Winner's bracket that will be revealed through RP. (I am also open to plot twists.)

Now let's lay some ground rules:
1) No godmodding. Stacking your deck for plot? Have clearance first! 
2) No force actions upon other characters unless agreed upon mutually.
3) All duels that aren't collabs must be viewed by me or my co-GMs (who are yet to be determined)
4) OOC stays apart from IC at all times! 
5) Be respectful, please.
6) No spamming or griefing any part of the RP.
7) Any frisky business should be taken to PMs (if necessary) 
8) If you are absent let me know ahead of time and we will work around you otherwise you might risk losing your character.
9) Banned cards are NOT all banned- if you want to know if a card is cleared ask me! 
10) We are using <a href=""http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/rulebook/SDCR_Rulebook_EN.pdf"">this</a> as a rulebook. This is pre-ARC-V, so first turn draw is still in play.

   Like this with more furs and more dimly lit.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> The Khan is what some would call a manic, and whoever would call him that is long deceased. Overly-friendly and generous he is the greatest host you could ask for. His palace has been a mystery location in Ricco Rengo for many years. Cynical and deceptive The Khan is not somebody who should be taken as lightly as he seems. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Hank Liu is the son of Lucille and Han Liu, Lucille was what some would call a prostitute. An avid drug addict as well. She didn’t know she was pregnant until too late and the abortion clinic refused her. She went to Han Liu a recent customer and senator. She claimed the baby was his and being the pro-life man he is he decided she should have it. Though it needed to be kept private due to the fact that he is a bastard and son of a lady caller. Han Liu’s conservative name would be diminished if anybody found out. Once the baby was born Han named him Hank after him (he was a very vain man). And named him the americanized name so he would seem more legitimate. 

Over the years Hank grew tired of his father and his hypocritical ways. His father was a completely different person behind closed doors. Forced to meet ridiculous standards for grades and other work Hank was at a breaking point. And he would’ve broken if not for Duel Monsters, his only refuge. The only thing Hank liked about his father is that he was easy to blackmail. Which meant getting the latest and greatest cards whenever he wanted. He then began dueling competitively and was starting to win money. Han Liu took and interest in this and decided to start gambling on his son behind his back. Then when Hank made it to the district championship. Big money was on the duel. One duel to win or lose it all. Han bet on his son a large amount of money that the government would definitely notice if it went missing. So when Hank lost due to an unfortunate last second card. His father was in deep over his head. So his only choice besides tarnishing his name and shot at a higher political position. Was to give the Triads something better than money. A slave.

A slave to the Triads Hank grew tough, and has a lot of dark things in his past. That won’t be revealed now. Needless to say gruesome conditions he was put in resulted in his only use showing. Dueling and blackmailing. How he gained most of his wealth is still a mystery to this day.

Name: Fubuki Motorei
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Appearance: <a href=""http://safebooru.org//images/1002/2497bfb9ace413b7530b7f4b8e1ad64b444acd97.jpg?1007764"">Link</a>
Personality: Though she comes off as a bit aloof at times, Fubuki is particularly open when it comes to making new relationships. After her mother's passing, Fubuki shut herself away mentally, only beginning to crawl out of that shell she build up at the age of 12. Because of that, much of her interactions with people are quite formal, which in turn brings a tendency for most people to shy away from her. That doesn't mean, however, that she doesn't show emotions- she's just a bit... Awkward, to put it lightly.
While dueling, Fubuki tends to open up to people a bit more, often times smiling as she gets into the midst of a good duel. However, it usually doesn't get much farther than that. She's a good sport about a loss, though, often congratulating the opponent for a hard-fought battle.
Bio: When Fubuki was young, her mother died in an accident while travelling overseas for a business venture, leaving her father to care for a 6-year old Fubuki on his own. Due to the company's aid, Fubuki managed to live her school life fairly uneventfully. However, one day a business partner of Fubuki's father came and offered Fubuki and her father an offer: have the girl learn the ins and outs of dueling and enter the upcoming tournament in Battle City in exchange for publicity for a small dueling academy he was trying to start up. Her father was originally against this, as his wife had been in contact with Industrial Illusions up to the day her death occurred, and feared that being involved in dueling would cause undue mental stress to Fubuki. Fubuki, on the other hand, embraced the idea wholeheartedly- such an event would be a nice change of pace from her average life and might even lead to more about her mother.
Signature Feature: Her eyes flash light blue the second before she deals a finishing blow to her opponent in a duel.

Name: Joseph Marshall
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Appearance: <a href=""http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/18900000/Shizuo-Heiwajima-heiwajima-shizuo-18933476-713-1024.jpg"">Link</a>
Personality: Joseph loves being the center of attention, often times making flashy moves or adding unneeded motions to his dialogue as he speaks. He's very social in that regard, and it quite at home chatting it up with other people, be they customers at his father's restaurant or other people in school during his free time. However, Joseph knows when to dial back the spotlight and let other people have their share. Can't just have one star in the sky, after all.
Bio: Never one to miss a beat, Joseph's always been active with other people. His parents owned a restaurant where many duelists frequented, and Joseph was enraptured by them all. The plays, the comebacks, the combos... Everything seemed to just keep him entranced. When he entered school, he was the one everyone looked to for information on the topic, mainly because he knew everything from overhearing it from the customers. When he entered high school, Joseph ended up becoming a premier duelist for his school's club, often topping tournaments left and right. When a representative of the tournament came to his school, Joseph was elected by his fellow club members to go participate. His parents, too, found it to be a good experience to take on and encouraged him to enter.
Signature Feature: His Duel Disk grows brighter the higher his LP is and dimmer the lower it is.

Like this without the weapons
Personality: Aono is quite the strange guy. He is laid back most of the time, and he doesn't really care about everything. This changes when he enters a duel. He becomes quite cocky, but not in a really bad way. More in a I will beat you, just watch kind of style. His ego is in perhaps his biggest ego. He isn't the nicest guy though. Smoking, drinking lots of beer, messing around with every girl he meets.. Its his way of life. Those who knew Aono before he started playing Yu-Gi-Oh claim that the first card he ever got, Void Ogre Dragon, changed Aono as a person, and that he might even be possessed by it in some odd way. 

Biography: Before starting to play Yu-Gi-Oh, Aono was known to be one of the nicest guys around. This all changed when he picked up his first Yu-Gi-Oh card, Void Ogre Dragon. Aono began to become quite cocky, he started to pick up bad habits and he even dropped out of school, and he got in constant fights with his parents. He did however become a top tier duelist, being famous for his famous handless combo summoning his key card Void Ogre Dragon, making him win a lot of duels. Aono wagered a lot of money in underground dueling tournaments, winning most of them. 4 years ago, Aono's parents disappeared, nobody really knows what happened besides Aono himself. Most people think it was Aono himself who got rid of them after them harassing him for every mistake he made.

Second character:

Gender: Female
Age: Nobody knows for sure, but the rumors says she is around 17 years old
Appearance: <img src=""http://images5.fanpop.com/image/photos/24900000/anime-vampire-girl-anime-24922138-370-512.jpg""/>

Personality: Emily looks around the age of 17, but nobody knows her true age, since she acts mature for her age. Outside of duels, Emily is quite calm, and acts smart most of the time. Most of the time, Emily is considered quite mature, but she tends to be really bitchy towards other girls when alone with them, and with boys its quite the opposite, she acts more like a charmer/succubus. Especially in duels, both sides of her are enhanced. She really drags herself into duels at times, almost acting like those duels are reality. 

Biography:
Legends say she is a vampire, as she has a really pale skin. Combined with the weird way she acts, the story of her being a vampire seems really legitimate. Nobody really knows where Emily came from, or where she lives. Most of the times she appears at duels, fights, beats the opponent, and leaves before anyone can even blink his eyes. Those who dueled Emily changed a lot, its almost like the duels are real to them. A few of the people who dueled Emily event went so far as being traumatized by the duels. Some duelists claim that they met Emily a few times after they lost their duel, and that they were forced to Duel her again and again until they finally won, after which Emily left them alone. Those duelists claim that they have gotten a special card, which they didn't dare to touch as those cards had a mystic aura, except for one duelist.

Emily teached herself how to duel, as she was lonely during her entire childhood. She had no parents, family or friends to be together with. Somehow she is one of the best duelists around, making the story of her being a vampire even more realistic.

Signature feature: When she defeats somebody in a duel, she says that she will visit you again, and that she demands you to train. She will keep visiting you until you improve, after which she rewards you with a random card, which appear to be some kind of possessed with a mythical power.

Personality: A quiet and soft-hearted person by nature, Miwa is a wallflower, preferring to observe things and people at a distance rather than face them head on. As such, she finds it hard to communicate with others and is often thought of as anti-social, in reality she just finds it hard to make friends. One thing Miwa hates is her dependency on others, she thinks she cannot accomplish big things by herself and often asks help for others, but her difficulty in communicating makes it a nigh-impossible trial for her.

Biography: Born and raised by a luxurious family, Miwa was sheltered as a child. Her parents forbidding her to go outside, saying it was a <span class=""bb-i"">""dangerous place""</span> whenever she asked them or whenever she tried to go out. Even education for her was done in the confines of their mansion, a place that she grew to hate over the years, she would look on with envy as the children outside would run around and play things such as tag and hide-and go-seek, it was one of the many things that money could not afford that Miwa wanted.

One day when she was 11, the family of a longtime friend of her mother came to visit and they had brought their son who was around the same age as her. He had with him two decks to play with, he was expecting a son to play with but ended up playing with Miwa, a choice that both he and the girl did not regret. They played for hours on end, with the boy teaching her the basics of the game and even giving her the deck they used in their first duel as a gift.

As the years passed and they grew older, so did their expertise in the game. The boy would constantly visit her on a biweekly basis and see if she was getting better or had picked up a card or two. On a particular day he said that he had a special card to give her, provided she win in their next duel, she accepted and through a teeth-gritting struggle, Miwa managed to defeat him and claim this so-called ""special card"". He had given her the card <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Madolche Puddingcess""</span></span> when she asked why, the boy scratched the back of his hair and said that the card reminded him of Miwa. She blushed profusely and gingerly thanked him. After an awkward silence, he laughed and said that she had gotten stronger ever since they fought as kids and he had told her there was to be an upcoming tournament, the boy asked for her to join.

At first she declined, saying that her skills are far from tournament worthy and that there would be too many stronger duelists that would pummel her in seconds, but after some words of encouragement, she agreed. The boy gave a big grin and motioned his pinky to the girl and said to her <span class=""bb-i"">""Promise me that you'll use her good, okay?""</span> Miwa nodded and intertwined her pinky to his, thanking him for the company he's brought her.

<span class=""bb-b"">EDIT:</span> Made my second and final character. Now to wait until we start rolling.
Name: Kenta Hamasaki  
Gender: Male 
Age: 17
Appearance: 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Kenta"" type=""button"">Kenta [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/aa394c9cdf4bd830dce53ae8d007e657/tumblr_moqrp90cSX1rmc8c6o2_1280.jpg""/></div></div>
Personality: Slow on the pickup and having very mediocre scores in school, Kenta is the type of person who lives by his own motto, namely <span class=""bb-i"">""Rest first, work later""</span>. He's a big procrastinator, which may or may not be the reason why his grades lean on C's to B's. Despite being laid back most of the time, he's quick to jump to conclusions and his temper isn't the best, a few push of his buttons and he'll let his fists do all the talking.

Bio: A normal boy by any other name. Kenta's family is as plain as they come, in other words: boring. There was rarely anything new whenever he was home, his dad reading the newspaper shortly after coming back from work, his mother watching the local teledrama when she wasn't cooking and his older brother playing with his gadgets, everyone was too busy in their own worlds, during his childhood he loathed it. He had nothing to do during days where his friends outside weren't there or when heavy rain would pour down on their kiddy playtime.

Middle school rolled in and one faithful day during their recess, a group of kids huddled around the latest craze, Yu-Gi-Oh! At the time, the boy was really hoping he'd have a chance to play it, why not? It was the most hip thing that all his friends were glossing all over, and if there was anything to escape the monotony of his house, it was this. He fought with other kids multiple times, besting most of them within his first few tries of the game. He was happy, he finally found something he could do inside his room for once! One that wasn't watching television over and over or doing mind-numbing homework!!

As he grew older, Kenta would participate in local tournaments, some he has won and others, not so much while others were so difficult, he had lost within the first round. With another tournament on its way, surely this would be the perfect chance to see both himself and others in action, right?

Signature Feature: Tends to give a rating for himself whenever a Duel is over.

Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearance: <a href=""http://static.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/330680-bigthumbnail.jpg"">This guy.</a>
Personality: He can be quite friendly. He's a pretty nice guy to almost anyone he meets, and he's always smiling. He always tries to achieve a peaceful solution to problems, no matter what it is. Be careful, though, because if you get on his bad side, then he seems to emit a dark aura, and his smile seems to change from friendly to menacing, despite it not changing in appearance. You will notice when his voice takes a sharp edge.
Bio: Alexander is a pretty standard guy. Doesn't miss a day in school, gets A's and B's in class, hangs out with friends, etc. One day, he found a Duel Monsters card on the ground, and he was instant hooked. He started to research Duel Monsters and gather cards to complete his collection for his card, and he soon gathered more than enough to create his very own deck. It was then that his passion for Dueling began. There were so many factors that had to be taken in, and strategies and counter-strategies to learn about peoples' decks. He enrolled in a small duel school that took place after his regular school so he could spend some time Dueling with others who had the same interest as him. From there he worked his way up, beating even the duel school principal and entering a local tournament. He didn't win the tournament, sadly, but he came pretty darn close. Even now, his love for Dueling has not wavered.
Signature Feature: He tends to say ""Checkmate"" right before the finishing blow.

Name: Michelle Kine
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Appearance: <a href=""https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CcnxzrljNRg/U_vRh_sBsKI/AAAAAAAADpA/p-qmo81fqVU/w426-h729/hitomiprev.png"">Here.</a>
Personality: Michelle is a bit of an introvert, and quite shy. She's not really one to talk to others, and as such has few friends. She spends most of her time by herself with her Duel Monsters cards, either at school or at home. 
Bio: Michelle's mother is an ex-Pro Duelist, while her father is an accountant. Michelle was entranced with Duel Monsters as a child, and spent most of her time with Duel Monster cards. She spent hours creating decks, only for them to lose multiple times in a row. Despite these events, she continued trying. She tried a lot of decks, and as such gained knowledge of the different summoning techniques, and her deck making skills improved so that her win/lose ratio increased. However, the ratio was still pretty low.

One day, though, Michelle's mother asked her to make to best deck she could, and to meet her in their backyard. A day later, she created her deck and met her mother outside. It turned out that Michelle's mother had challenged her to a Duel, and her mother would use her personal deck. The challenge, sadly, proved to be too much for Michelle to overcome, and she lost after a close match. Afterwards, though, her mother gave Michelle her deck, and told Michelle to make her proud. Michelle accepted gladly, confident that she would uphold that promise.

Gender: Male

Age: 15

<a href=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/id/f/f4/Lockon-06-animestocks-com--1-.jpg"">Appearance.</a>

Personality: A Pagan that worships mother earth. He's generally a friendly sort, but it's when he's in the heat of duel that his spirit sets ablaze and his passion melts any ice that might be around. When the seal goes off, his passion dies down into a quiet calm that allows him to think straight and plan his moves carefully. He see's it as the seal transfering his passion to his monsters. He is also prone to bursting into song, and is proud of being a ""Galway boy""

Signature Feature: When he plays the Seal of Orichalcos, a strange green symbol appears on his forehead

Bio: Born into a mismatched family, he was the second child and first son of famous professional wrestler Douglas ""The Smiler"" O'Brian. Although, news of his conception came as a shock, due to his mother being told that she was incapable of having male children. His older Sister had been born and their father had taken to training her to be the next Wrestling Champion. His mother, on the otherhand, was a strong pagan woman. Until he was 7 years old, he and his father were rather distant, as his father spent his time training his sister. As such, he imprinted more on his mother than him. She would often take him on nature walks and show him the beauty that mother earth had to offer. She even told him an old legend of the 6 Kings. A King to rule each of the elements, Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, Light and Dark.

When he was 6, he and his sister got their first Decks, and so, he started to save up all of his pocket money on these cards. His deck was that of the Monarchs, as they had been based on the old legend of the 6 kings. Their father was a card player, but no-one phenomenal. At the age of 7, Robert and his father finally got close, as he was now old enough to start learning how to wrestle. Robert grew close to his father and sister, through the training, but he wasn't very good. He only really did it so as to get some quality, family time. Naturally, he lost to his sister... A lot...

It was when he was 13 that he decided to start trying to get closer to nature. He would often camp out in the woodlands close to his small hometown. On one fateful night, he heard a strange rustling through the undergrowth. Going to investigate, he saw a bright green hawk that was stuck in a trap, with men closing in on it, talking of how much money it was worth. Naturally, he got between them and the defenseless bird. Using his wrestling know-how, he managed to fend off one of them, but they were much larger than him, so he didn't stand much of a chance. He managed to at least get over to the bird and cut the rope with his pocket knife, at least he could save the creature. That was when it exploded in a bright green light, Wind seemed to pick up instantly as the bird transformed into a giant. The men ran but Robert was transfixed on its magnificence. It stared down at him, before disappearing and forming into a card, which floated down to him. The card was the true form of one of the Monarchs. Raiza...

After this event, he spent the next year, wandering through the area in search of the rest of the Monarchs, his first month was to no avail. Raiza, inspired by his determination to find his fellow Monarchs, told him to seek out the Majiosheldon. The Leprechauns that roamed the land under the watchful eyes of the Monarchs. He found them in a cabbage patch, three brothers, who, thanks to Raiza were convinced to assist him. With their help, he easily overcame the obstacles and reunited the 6 Mega Monarchs. They were his to call upon in battle. With this, he was bestowed a mystical card, the Seal of Orcichalcos. A seal given to those that the Monarchs decide is truly at one with them. it is proof that he is a guardian of nature and an ally of the Monarchs.

He returned home and began focusing on his finesse with his deck. His deck became infamous in the area. Eventually, he moved to the big city in order to find a teacher and get even better.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span>  Jackson P. DuBois

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span>  Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>  24

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <img src=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131116174956/role-play/images/f/fa/Anime_guy_13.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Jack DuBois is a wonderful, kind hearted, soft spoken individual.  He would also laugh in your face if you happened to believe that for even half a second.  Jack is a strategic, calculating man who appreciates if not demands a challenge from his opponents.  Jack is sarcastic by nature; manipulative and deceitful when necessary.  Jack isn't incapable of genuine friendship, he's just incredibly bored by most of those he meets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>  At some point, it can be deduced, there was a man and woman who had a child.  This child, would inevitably grow up to call himself Jackson P. DuBois and take the world of Duel Monsters by storm.  As well as his interest in Duel Monsters, Jack also nursed a love for history.  There was a time in his life that he aspired to be a college professor.

A duelist since grade school, Jack began playing Duel Monsters competitively only recently.  He has made enough of a name for himself, however, that he has been invited to play in Mr. Khan's 100th Anniversary event of the Battle City tournament.

Cards like these are the reason we shouldn't duel with only 4k lifepoints... (you can win EASILY without ever letting your opponent do anything)

Gender: Male
Age: 16
Appearance: <img src=""http://i58.tinypic.com/2gv62qx.png""/>
(His millenium eye is hidden under his eyepatch)
Personality: Ryo is a person who is casual and easy-going. He loves playing games. Due to his constantly changing environment in his childhood, he prefers solitude over socialness. However, Ryo has quite a sense of justice, and would be harsh towards people who harms others. He's okay with playing risky games that can endanger himself, finding it fun in the process. So, he enjoys setting up shadow games to people who pissed him off, and uses his creativity towards his penalty games.
Bio:
Ryo lives in an ordinary small apartment in the States, with a ragged &amp; worn out car that his father drives. Despite that outlook of the environment, his parents are filthy rich, but they are in high-risk government-involved careers and are often targetted by assassins hired by countless rivals. Most of his life was spent moving about here &amp; there throughout the country. Due to the always-changing environment, he spent most of his childhood at home playing on video games, and he built walls &amp; barricades made from catridges &amp; CD cases stacked from the games that he have beaten.

One day, when he was alone at home as per usual, he received an package that have no return address. Opening it in curiosity, he found an ancient-looking eye-shaped ball that is made of gold. One moment of touch to the millennium eye, and his hand, then his whole body, lost control to the ancient object. Ryo, under the eye's influence, dug out his left eye as he fitted the millennium eye into his eye socket. He was awake all the moment, and the only thing he can do is to just endure the excruciating pain of the process. Little did he know that that was just the beginning, the eye felt like an intense fireball in him, as it went scorching through the left side of his face as the eye recognizes the new owner.

Upon regaining his control over the body, he screamed in pain, only to realize that he felt nothing anymore, the pain had stopped. It was like a horrifying nightmare, and he would have thought it to be so if there isn't his plucked out eye in front of him. The next thing he saw, was a glimpse his mother sailing through a black river on a worn-out gigantic ship, the ones that are often shown in pirate-themed movies, and an enormous signboard placed the other side of the river which wrote:""SPIRIT REALM"".

Shocked, Ryo stood up to get the telephone, as well as realizing that his wound on his millenium eye had stopped its bleeding, healed as if the eye had been perfectly replaced. He was dealt another blow when his father told him that Ryo's mother was assassinated, frantically telling Ryo on how to open the safe to that leads his inheritance, then a farewell. Since then, his parents never return home again.

What Ryo found in his father's safe were a stack of tattered money. And much to his surprise, a Blue Eyes White Dragon card, a card which is priceless, and said to be one of the strongest monster card, which have only 4 copies avaliable in the whole world. He became suspicious of what kind of jobs is his parents are doing, getting to such lengths to launder such an enormous sum of money.

He continued his life in his house playing video games, living off the inheritance he gave. (Just a piece of inheritance- cash, is too much for him to spend) That's until he received an invitation from Industrial Illusions...


Signature Feature: 
Millennium Eye- Ryo has the millennium eye, but he doesn't know how to utilize it to its fullest potential. The Millennium Eye is able to read the human mind, but he can only perceive it vaguely as ""auras"". He is only able to see how dark or light a person's aura is (basically how good or evil~). Like all millennium items user, he is able to make Shadow Games. His shadow games are mostly illusion-based, and his theme of his Penalty Games is irony. His penalty games are short though, only lasting from hours to a day, depending on how strong it is (the higher the intensity, the shorter the time).

Also, Emily's deck isnt designed for battle really, but it somehow works... so theres that going for me.

Also, YgoPro has got an option called ""Use Obsolete rules"" which brings back the draw first turn, 1 field spell etc.
And i dislike Duelingnetwork, the manual thingy is kinda hard to work with/feels awkward imo</div>"

Though I could see why.

Age- 16

Gender- Male

Appearnce-<a href=""https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-prNife5vRv4/Ta2Sqddlo9I/AAAAAAAAACE/wejC6pLqjZw/s1600/happy_boy.jpg"">Image</a>

Personality- Moros is incrediably, almost overwhelmingly cheerful. It seems he always has a smile on his face and never seems to see the dark side of things. His overwhelming optimism is only matched by his willingness to duel anyone he meets. Moros is confused by aggresion and negitive feelings, because he simply doesn't understand it. Obviously he is incrediabley naive and just wants to be friends with everyone. Moros will do attempt to do anything for someone he considers a friend, which is really anyone he's met.

Bio: Moros was raised in an orphanage, however he didn't live an unhappy like most orphanges are protrayed. His cheerful demeanor quickly made friends with the other kids at the orphanage. The orphanage gave all of the kids a decent allowance that allowed them to go out and buy something nice every once in a while. One day he chanced upon a group of his friends playing a game of duel monsters, he watched avidly and after the duel asked how to play. Eagerly Moros went to a card shop and bought a starter pack with the small allowance they were allowed. Moros liked the King of Skull Servants deck because he felt it was kinda like him, useless at first, but they had incrediable power if played right. After many failures, which failed to remove his unending optimism, he obtained a resonable amount of skill at the game.

 However, he never really understood the forms of extra deck special summoning, XYZ, Syncro, Pendulum, Moros never really got any of that, so he hasn't used any of them. Finally he went to a local tournament and somehow managed to come out first. Immediatly afterwards he recieved an invitation to the 100th annual battle city Tournament for some reason. Still confused as to why he had recieved an invitation since he had only won one measly tournament but eager to participate, Moros decided, why not maybe he could make some new friends? Since his travel fare was already paid for he quickly packed what few things he had and got on his airplane to the tournament, with all the good wishes of the friends he had.

Alright, I have a bit of confusion now, me and Noob were supposed to duel in the limousine with me (Emily).
Also, i would advice everyone to make a second deck (do they even need approval if they are for outside of tournament usage?) as using your main deck outside of the tournament, especially early on, isnt a bright tactic.

As for Aono... i guess he is all alone in the limo now? D:

Yeah i just slept for 10 hours btw... like wtf i usually only sleep 6 hours.

Also, Aono's alt deck is trash tier that anyone can beat with ease, his main deck.... Damn</div>"

The thing is, i was supposed to have a private duel (shadow duel lmao) with Ryo, but Alexander already entered Ryo's Limo XD

And Aono already entered a limo (apparently alone so far) , as i quote ""as he walked away entered the limousine he was supposed to sit it, still surprised by that combo of Fubuki's. ""

Oh you won't have to participate, me and Ryo will have a 1 vs 1 duel (I will use my alt deck btw) which ends up with Ryo being knocked out at the end, while Emily leaves the limousine, so you could deal with his knocked out body?
Me and Ryo will probably handle the duel itself, and then send it to you so you can add in some interactions/comments from Alexander?

Edit: I will figure out the duel with Ryo first, then when that duel is done with being written, i will probably make Aono's next post, unless you are planning on a storyline inside the limousine, Haru? </div>"

Jack and Fubuki have shown a pretty strong dynamic together, but I think we've pretty much exhausted the conversation in the limo.  

I'd say that while Emily and Ryo have their duel, and Aono and Miwa chat in transit; Joseph, Fubuki, Kenta, and Jack should arrive at their destination and wait in a large reception hall of sorts.  Food and drink, scantily clad waitresses, and all the Vagas ilk.  Introduce your wandering hologram concept at this point as well.  The four of us then chat while waiting for the other duelist and the Khan to arrive.

I say this all in the name of keeping the RP moving forward.  There is no need to keep half the cast waiting, but we also can't let them get too far ahead of the others.</div>"

Maybe our driver took a longer route, so we could finish our duel or something?
That way, us coming late would make sense. (Khan could know this ofcourse, making somebody else receive us instead of Khan himself?)
As for Aono, Miwa, Alexander, i think we need about 2-3 more posts in total, then we are fine too. (Not planning on having a duel in that limo atleast).

But all I meant to say was that if he hasn't responded to you in 24 hours already, it's dangerous to stop the action this early in an RP's development on account of one individual.

Give him a reasonable opportunity to get involved, but frankly, you've waited a long time as it is.  It would be better to abort the arc before it begins than to get stuck in the middle of it, and hold up progress of the rest of the RP.

Special summons. Special summons everywhere. The game shifted away from 'summon big monsters with big attack to punch for game' and moved to a more 'remove, negate, destroy' playstyle. Since monsters from the Extra Deck aren't shuffled into the main deck after being bounced from the field, bouncing/spinning cards back to the deck has become a lot more prevalent.

And then every deck floats for days so Raigeki came back. And then there's Qliphorts.

Oh, Qlis. They're tier 0 in the current metagame, able to consistently draw into the cards they need, search things out with Scout and slowly grind their opponent's resources into nonexistence. It's no fun to face those. At all.</div>"

Turn 1 6 cards let people establish a strong field quite early on with the right setup, while 5 cards mitigates that extra advantage that people used to have.

Pendulums... Pendulums are weird. They're fun and easy to understand (Normal Pendulums gooooo), but they're definitely weird at times. Setting up the scale is inconsistent for most decks (things like Qlis and Yosenju aside), but they ARE fun to use once you do have everything ready.

Is it still possible to sign up? I see that you guys are off to a good start with a few duels having taken place already, so I just want to check to make sure before posting a character sheet.

Also, I wanted to bring up something that's still a bit of a concern for me right now, and that's the current power creep between decks being used and the power cap for any future decks to be used. I don't know how the experience has been for you guys since I haven't had time to read through the whole OOC, but I do know that there are certain decks that can just outright stomp the heck out of some other character's decks. Nekroz against the old school Blue-Eyes deck I saw around here somewhere definitely does not seem like a fair matchup, for example, and I see there's already been some talk about using other decks that are pretty high up on the power scale of Yugioh (Infernoids, Qliphorts, think I might have even seen a mention of Shaddolls thrown around someplace). I was wondering how this would all be dealt with to try and keep the roleplay for everyone involved fair and enjoyable (because really, I'd be pretty bummed out if I knew my deck didn't stand much of a chance against everybody else) for everyone without completely banning the use of certain decks. I'm not trying to start anything and I hope I'm not giving the wrong impression here, I'm just curious is all.</div>"

I mean technically it is completely fair since I didn't force any deck on anyone. EDIT: PENDULUMS are banned so some of the new decks are pretty much handicaped. Also the option for a staged duel is still in effect so if wanted any deck could defeat any deck no matter the power. It's also an option to actually duel in which case it's the Rpers own choice! If there is a dispute between choosing staged and simulated let me know and we can settle it :) handicapping somebody for using a newer strategy doesn't really seem fair to me. If majority can decide on a fair handicap for newer decks then I guess I would allow it. However I would just like to point out I am using an old school deck and I still believe I can hold my own. :)</div>"

However, it might be difficult for me to make a CS now if XYZ are banned. Most if not all of my decks are XYZ based... would it be possible to make an exception? The XYZ mechanic is easiest for me to use, and while I have a (mostly) synchro based deck, it's similar to that of another character's deck from a yugioh rp I used to be in and I don't want to make it seem like I'm ripping them off or anything should they happen to stop by.

Also, Cxyz (Chaos XYZ).are basically a more powerful form of a Number monster.

Name: Lyall Castellan

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Personality: Contrary to what you'd expect to see in most people who use a deck like his, Lyall typically doesn't go for the whole dark and brooding type of behavior. Although actually possessing a rather chill demeanor, the way he carries himself is one filled with authority and confidence, usually managing to turn a few heads in his direction whenever he's making himself known. His is a commanding presence of course, and being around him will either make you feel reassured or intimidated. Lyall attempts to be respectful to everyone he meets, but if he encounters someone who he doesn't like or whom he feels needs to be dealt with differently, he'll act in such a way so as to make the individual(s) feel inferior and ashamed.

Now, to say that Lyall is a completely noble and proper guy wouldn't exactly be telling the truth (well, except for maybe the latter part of that). Whenever serious situations arise, he can be quite ruthless and fearsome, going to morally questionable lengths to get something that needs to be done, done. Being involved in a duel with him in this state of behavior is far from desirable because win or lose, he'll make sure that the other is left with either a humiliating defeat or a pyrrhic victory. Manipulation is also something he's capable of doing, and with pleasure at that. Behind the appearance of the (mostly) likeable young man, it's likely that this side of him is his most genuine side...

Bio: Lyall comes from a place known as Aria City, a large and rather famous city well known for its luxuries and dueling tournaments. Behind this splendor however, was the obviously more despicable and decaying area of the city where life sucked and gangs ran rampant. And Lyall... Lyall actually did <span class=""bb-i"">NOT</span> live in this part of the city. Yeah no, his family was actually part of the elite class involved with the city's dealings and projects, so he actually had it pretty good and rarely had anything to complain about. He picked up the game of Duel Monsters at an early age from his father and older brother who was already making a name for himself with it AND their aspirations to remake the squalid part of Aria City. Lyall took up after this much to his family's pleasure, except he decided to go more after the security and law enforcement part of ""business"" instead of the whole social reform and restructuring stuff the other two engaged in. Along with dueling, he became well versed in his chosen path and even acquired the (minimal) authority to handle factions of the security within the Squalid Sector (which had at this point become to spread and grow more dangerous due to a rising gang that was actually absorbing the lesser gangs). He handled it as best as he could which wasn't bad by any means, but was in the end only able to hold back the tide with the rest of his associates. 
^ Fun fact: He would actually go in himself to experience the Squalid Sector for himself and to test out his ability to duel against more hardened people. It was during these times where he began to assemble the Steelswarm and Evilswarm cards together, urged on by a mysterious voice to do so. 

One fateful tournament saw the disappearance of Lyall's father and brother, kidnapped and essentially held for ransom by the briefly mentioned criminal group that had been rising within the Squalid Sector. Apparently, they and the rest of the people there were tired of being confined to the area and especially tired of all the ""empty promises"" made by Lyall's family and their associates. Some weird, how-does-this-even-make-sense revolution thing was in the air, and Lyall's family was going to be the first to go if something wasn't done. Although the associates suggested things be resolved on a more defensive, cautionary manner, Lyall decided it'd be better to do so more forcefully this time, a surprising choice of action considering he usually suggested the same course of action. He claim he would go in and settle the matter directly, which was pretty bold if not stupid considering the situation. He didn't care though. Ever since he began to assemble his new deck in secret, his thinking had begun to change. He felt more emboldened, even cruel, and instead of seeing the crime group in the Squalid Sector as just another group faced with misfortune that needed help, he saw it as something that needed to be eliminated completely. And so he went there, undisturbed by any of the thugs there due to the recent reputation he had gotten for himself, and after some hard fought duels with members of the gang, finally completed his Lswarm deck and switched into it. It was at this point where the Lswarm crest burned itself onto his left hand, as well as the point where his spirit partner made itself known to him as the ""voice"" that would whisper in his ear.

Long (seriously, why is this so long) story short, with the newfound power Lyall pretty much crushed the gang and it's leader, something he found he actually enjoyed doing. He recovered his kidnapped family members, asked the poor beaten guys how the HELL this even happened, and returned home once the criminals were taken into custody. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE. Turns out gang leader's father was an associate of the Castellan family who did all this to try and get all the Aria City power for himself, so he got defeated and locked up as well. Why would you even do that bruh? This ain't a kingdom! It's a city with... a surprising amount of wealth and status.... I dunno anymore. But anyway, after all the trouble Lyall managed to increase and tighten security around the Squalid Sector, but this security was slowly spread elsewhere in the city by the efforts of his family since they had been convinced by Lyall it needed to be done. Yeah.

Oh yeah and he got an invitation to the Regno Ricco Tournament, so he went to it. Why? Because he is still technically a kid despite all the stuff that happened and wanted to have fun (and maybe get this Khan guy to affiliate himself with Aria City). But nah, mostly to have fun, this guy who somehow became some behind-the-scenes ""ruler"" of a depraved and messed up city that apparently had more stuff wrong in it than just the Squalid Sector, but that's a different story.


Signature Feature: Lyall bears the crest of the Lswarm on the backside of his left hand. Acquired after fully assembling his deck, the mark will glow a rusted, crimson color when he is warping a duel with the power of the mysterious Shadow Games or when he is in a duel that has already been turned into a Shadow Game by somebody else. The crest (or rather, the power behind the crest) also seems to be capable of ""infecting"" people, corrupting their natures into something determined by the darkness already inside them and the ""Lswarm Virus"". 

Deck: Lswarm Terror

Favorite Card: Evilswarm Ophion, Steelswarm Moth, Steelswarm Girastag

Other: Although it rarely makes itself seen to others, Lyall's spirit partner is likely to be Evilswarm Kerykeion. According to its history, it was formerly Constellar Rasalhague before absorbing the power of the infected Ice Barrier Dragons (Bahamut, Ophion, Ouroboros). There is one major parallel between Lyall and the monster: Despite having the power of a corrupting, overwhelming virus, both retain control over themselves and are not fully consumed by it.</div>"

Really? Thanks, I appreciate the comment :). I'll think of something when/if the time comes, but until then I gotta wait. I checked out Emily's CS by the way, interesting character! I've only seen a vampire deck in action a few times, and from what I can remember, that Bram guy seems to REALLY like sticking around xD! Anyway, yeah, I'd be willing to get a storyline going between them.

I run Lswarms in real life too, along with Blue-Eyes and Fire Kings. I think it's my most effective deck and it's definitely my favorite deck to use overall since I have several other decks online. I don't like the typical Rabbit-Heliotrope combo though, which is why I don't use it. A damn rabbit in a deck filled with insectoid demons seems out of place first of all, and it seems really situational considering you have to draw into it with your first draw or wait to draw it later. Then there's the matter of using up more deck space to cater to its ability and to bring it back from the banished zone. Rescue Rabbit <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> a decent strategy and definitely helps getting out Ophion faster, but I just opt to use different plays. 

Ophion is annoying though xD, one of my friends pretty much started cussing me out because of it, albeit in good humor. Sadly there are plenty of ways to get around him nowadays, and it seems that every current and upcoming metadeck has a way to get rid of him. I wouldn't be surprised if Konami actually did that with Ophion in mind, because they probably thought no one would want to buy their ""epic new meta decks"" if they could be stopped by something that came out three years ago.</div>"
2364,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-05 02:37:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Bram does float waaay too much, but then he meets a Constellarknight Diamond and takes it to the face. Mwahahahaha!

But yeah, Ophion's a pain. I ran Bujins against that friend once. He hated me because triple Crane + Sinyou + double Honest makes life miserable for EVERYONE!

Also Nekroz of Unicore is awesome. Negate all Extra Deck monsters because I NEED TO SPECIAL BOSS MONSTERS &gt;:I. I'm building Nekroz next week, seeing as how I've got everything except 3x Preparation of Rites and the actual Nekroz (Gungnir/Cycle aside).</div>"

<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=cS5Lfpq8CHs#t=50"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=cS5Lfpq8CHs#t=50</a>

Definitely sums up what I'm pretty sure everyone thinks when they see Bujins xD. I've used them before and they are pretty fun to use, especially when you basically get free turns because your opponent doesn't want to attack for fear of your... what, eight Honests?

My only beef against Nekroz is that they have waaaaay too many effects and an easy to summon Trishula... with extra effects. Seriously, you might as well bring the original Trishula back if you're basically giving people that same Trishula that can literally be summoned with just ONE monster. Shrit, that little shit xD...

unicoreandclausolascangotohellthough

Good luck with building that deck though, they're an interesting archetype to play for sure! I'd like to build them myself, but I am a poor boy ;-;...</div>"

Yeah. Have fun. OCG slammed the nerfbat down and OCG still loves it. Well, that and triple Smashing Ground. For some reason.

But yeah, I remember playing Bujins v my friend's LSRulers. Kaiser Fiendish Yamato gg?

And uh... Yeah, Schritt's broke. Triple RoTA in TCGland isn't helping much with all the searches we already get lol. Nekroz just keep recycling resources forever and I LOVE it.

Edit: Everything's in the new box, so I'll just buy one or two (splitting them with friends) and I'll probably have most of what I need. Depends on rarities tbh.</div>"

<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/JXfqKEM.png""/>

Wait.... so what'd they do in OCGland that everyone loved?

So everything's in the new box huh? I typically don't buy box sets unfortunately, usually I wait until I know for sure I want a certain deck, then build and test it online until I feel I've got it as good as it can get before buying the cards I need. Of course, that also means I don't have trade fodder for later use, but it's whatever. I currently want to build Constellars, but I still have to save up a decent amount of money and then do something totally cool so my parents will treat my using money on cards as a reward instead of being wasteful.

Constellars are expensive though :(...

Anyone know when DreadPirate will be back online? I'm anxious to know if I got accepted or not. In the meantime, can I at least have a good recap of what's happened so far in the RP?</div>"

Unicore to 1. Preparation to 1. Manju to 1. Senju to 1.
As a result, people started finding different ways to play the deck. Now people there run triple Smashing Ground as an out to a Djinn Lock Trish and the Tour Guide engine to pull out Djinn to the field.

Also, used to run an Evilswarm deck myself... It was quite boring imo, same loop over and over again xD
But it was strong, have to admit that. Evilswarm will probably beat Emily and Aono with ease.
Bram does indeed stick out.. except if you face some players on here (Pkmnboy)

Is this college or high school? Because if it's college then you've given me some hope for finding people I might have some stuff in common with once I graduate and everything. Now about the points...

- So I'm not the only one who thinks Steelswarms and Evilswarms together are a <span class=""bb-i"">good</span> idea? I'm surprised, most of the stuff I've read about it online says otherwise.

- Yes, and like I said before, I think it's pretty unreliable and usable only once or twice.

- Just remember you can only use the effect of one Thunderbird whenever there's more than one on the field.

But uh... Yeah. Thunderbird floats around forever, so if you can find another level 4 to go into with that it's usually aight.

Buuut I think you've misinterpreted what I've said first. Evilswarms pure are better than a mix of the two, mainly because the regular Steelswarms don't mesh well with the Evilswarm effects (I mean, you can't tribute anything like Mandragora or Castor to get off something like Moth's effect) and it's dead if you draw into them. Evilswarms are usually better as just a rank 4 toolbox that can suppress big plays in the end.</div>"

I'm currently a Senior in high school. And it's fine lol, I'm sure I'll be able to find people similar to myself in college anyway, so no worries. As for the Lswarms, I prefer to use my version that uses both sides of the archetype. It's fun to use and has a few more options/combos to use than just solely going for Rank 4 plays (but this still is a substantial part of the deck of course). I've actually gotten it to work effectively, something a member here called UnendingEmpire can attest to, but I will admit that you sometimes draw useless cards or even hands in a worse case scenario. Pros far outweigh the con(s) for me though!</div>"

My playstyle's all about the grind game and consistency most of the time, which is why I've played Bujins and plan to go into Nekroz. I mean, Bujins have triple Tenki as a search already, but then Yamato just pull, drop. Pull, drop. Or turbo build, in which case Hirume/Arasuda/Whatever and go crazy with the rank 4 toolboxing. Not as good as Star Seraph Satellas though, but I sure do love me some Kaiser Colosseum shenanigans.

It also feels like playing Star Seraph Satellas against you is going to be annoying as heck. I can get past Ophion's effect and Pandemic without trouble with that, but then Light Impris is a pain.

Then again, Shadow-Impris. Meh.

Nekroz... Well, I can probably just search like 3 times in my turn, get Unicore/Clausolas and spin/beat over anything standing in my way. :3c</div>"

I don't really see Emily tagging up with Emily, and Emily kinda didn't give Alexander any attention at all.
So either Emily is the third wheel or she tags up with Alexander. She runs a Vampire/xyz deck with a bit of synchro in it. Lots of tribute summoning though.

As for Aono.. he was in the same situation, knowing Aono, he would prefer to tag with Miwa, but it doesn't really matter a lot.
Either Aono is also third wheel, or tags up with anyone.

Anyways, I will write my next part now, making both of them open for anyone to approach.

We seem to have Vampire and Skull Servant users here, so it's nice to see that I'm not the only one that uses zombies here.  Anyway, here's a CS from me.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Ava"" type=""button"">Ava [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ava Kore

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <img src=""http://safebooru.org/images/786/0e2be1d36c645c74ff8b38a3b22f11c1f4b59cd4.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ava is a good kid.  Always keeps manners in mind, doesn't have any ill intentions toward anyone, and tips her waitresses generously.  She's not one to initiate social interaction, but she's by no means an introvert.  She would love to talk, but simply has no desire to start the conversation.  Especially if the topic is related to Duel Monsters or putting together the final pieces of the puzzle that is her missing memories.

Even in a duel, Ava's kind but stoic personality never falters.  However, don't expect her to ever go easy on an opponent.  Ava treats every given duel as though it could be her last.  She acts on two things.  First and foremost, her own experience as a duelist.  However, when her own judgment fails to bring her to a decision, Ava is guided by what she can only describe as a voice.  She isn't sure of the source, and is fairly certain she's not just crazy, but the voice's guidance hasn't failed her yet.  However, this voice is far less kind than Ava is.

Additionally, either Ava has short-term memory problems that surface from time to time, or there may be more to all this than meets the eye...

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Ava suffers a mild case of amnesia.  She knows the gist of her life, but the details are unknown, and some pieces are missing completely.  What she knows is she grew up well, with a family that loved her more than anything in the world.  Her father was a professional duelist, and she took after his talent.  She was the bane of many an overconfident locals player during her reign as local champion, and many say she could have even gone to nationals if she wanted.  However, there's still one big gap in her memory, which she's certain coincides with the most important event of her life.

All Ava was ever able to find on the matter was a police report that mentioned a family that matched the description of hers.  They had lost a lot of money and sank to the bottom of society, but the tricky part was the report that the family was found dead, parents killed and child hung by the neck.  Which must obviously be false unless Ava had a sibling she forgot about, as she's quite clearly alive and kicking.  She believes this event is linked to her eye somehow, and while eager to find some answers, there are times when something deep within her - a guiding voice of sorts - tells her it'd be better that she not know.

<span class=""bb-b"">Signature Feature:</span> Ava's left eye is solid yellow and surrounded in scar tissue.  She finds it hideous, and as such tends to keep it covered.

<span class=""bb-b"">Deck:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/OVpeqec.png"">TREMBLE BEFORE THE UNDEAD SCOURGE!</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Favorite Card:</span> Dragonecro Nethersoul Dragon.  Ava seems to be obsessed with this card, perhaps a bit too much so.  It seems she owns three copies, and wears the third around her neck in a protective cover at all times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> ~Ava seems to have the ability to turn a duel into a Shadow Game, but it's unknown if this ability is simply weaker in her case or if she refuses to use it to its full extent.  Losing a Shadow Game to Ava doesn't result in death as per the norm, but the loser becoming something akin to an empty husk of who they once were.  More of an emotional and mental death than a physical one.

These ""husks"" have a tendency to follow Ava if they see her, and do whatever she tells them.  However, since she typically tells them to ""be free and live for yourself"" on the rare occasions that she even uses this power, one wouldn't even notice this.  One can see a faint yellow glow from under Ava's eyepatch when this power is active, but they'd have to look closely to see it unless the eyepatch is removed, in which case it glows rather brightly.

According to TCGPlayer at least. I personally didn't mind trading it away since I trade for what I need, ignoring rarity. I also only ever buy cards when I'm making a deck, meaning I buy them online and by singles so I won't use up more money than I need to. Every now and then though I'll buy a few booster packs, but that's not something I enjoy doing too much.

I don't think Shock Master is TOO bad of a card considering its possible to negate its effect, has relatively low attack for a 3 material card, and can be destroyed by common means.

Some leniency for the more casual decks might be nice.</div>"

I uh.... wasn't thinking of including it in my deck based on whether it would make for a cool appearance or not, I just wanted to include it because it's a reasonable and useful replacement for Delteros and might be able to help me in duels to make a legitimate comeback (which is somewhat what you're talking about).</div>"

It can be summoned way too easily, and its almost as op as cold wave or whatever that card was called.

Uhm... What is my partner doing? xD
We were preparing a tag duel, but he just randomly walked to another tag team to challenge them?

On the side note... One of the reasons I stopped is the lack of tournaments in my country.
There is only 1 local tournament a month, which requires me to travel quite a bit... And besides that, there are like 2-4 tournaments all over the country... So yeah, no playing Yu-Gi-Oh in real life for me :/

Same reason I dropped out of the meta and stuff, there is no place for me to play yu-gi-oh tbh :/
Like else I would be the underdog playing some weird fun deck but yeah thats not happening :/

Edit: About the new set, i read this online: ""To sum it up, out of 3 cases (36 boxes) we've obtained 7 brionacs, 8 trishulas, 6 valkyrus and 10 maiyosenju. It's a small sample, but you could get an idea from that. Other cards are really easy to get, mirrors, clausolas, unicore, kamas and etc we've roughly 40-50ish of each.""

Thought it would be an interesting way to narrow the competition down quick early game. It's only for this round, I didn't realize there would be so much trouble with it. If you absolutely cannot find a partner then go ahead and just say that you got paired with some random scrub NPCs and won.

Oh really? Well I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh noob. Well, a re-noob since it's been so long. I stopped paying attention once 5Ds came around. Bikes? No thanks.

Googled again. Those Cyber Dragon cards are pretty legit.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cyber Dragon Nova</span> <span class=""bb-i"">(2 Level 5 Machine-Type Monsters)</span>
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 ""Cyber Dragon"" in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target. Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can banish 1 ""Cyber Dragon"" from your hand or face-up from your Monster Card Zone; this card gains 2100 ATK until the End Phase. If this card in your possession is sent to your Graveyard by your opponent's card effect: You can Special Summon 1 Machine-Type Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck.

<span class=""bb-b"">Thoughts:</span> I'm liking that last effect. Say someone uses, I don't know, Man-Eater Bug's special flip effect. By doing that I can Special Summon Cyber End Dragon if it's in my Extra Deck. Not bad.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cyber Dragon Infinity</span> <span class=""bb-i"">(3 Level 6 Machine-Type Monsters with LIGHT Attribute)</span>
You can also Xyz Summon ""Cyber Dragon Infinity"" once per turn by using a ""Cyber Dragon Nova"" you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) This card gains 200 ATK for each Xyz Material attached to it. Once per turn: You can target 1 other face-up Attack Position monster on the field; attach it to this card as a face-up Xyz Material. Once per turn, during either player's turn, when a card or effect is activated: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it.

Also, if we're talking about Cyber Dragons a decent amount of support came back since GX. 2013 gave us the Structure Deck, which in turn gave us Nova, Zwei, Drei, Core, Proto-cyber Dragon... Lots of good stuff. You can freaking Machine Dupe core and pull out 2 actual Cyber Dragons from your deck. It's stupid.

I'll be leaving this RP shortly.  I'll do my best to explain my reasons below.

This RP lacks the feel of one that will go places I can get behind and/or look forward to.  Some RPs have this feel, and others do not, and as much as I wish otherwise, this one is among the latter.  The plot is solid and the players seem like cool people, but (and please do forgive if I sound in any way offensive; this is not my intent) the RP feels like it lacks the solid leadership that even the greatest RP of all time needs to actually get anything done.  The characters feel scattered and the power levels of their decks even more so.

We have absolutely no balance of decks which is detrimental to an RP of this sort in the first place.  One player's two characters run Nekroz and Nutellaknights, while at least two others use decks that I can't even figure out their goal.  We have somebody that at first you can't even tell if they actually are a vampire or not, but as I understand it they are (as much as I think this is a good idea, it feels out of place).  We even have one character who has the Millennium Freaking Eye for literally no good reason at all; they just have it.  I actually made Ava's story just to see if I could test any of the GM's/co-GM's boundaries with it, which in hindsight was a terrible idea since making a character means I have to use them.  Another contributing factor here is that I'm simply having too much trouble getting behind Ava's character.  Please don't assume any of this is said to berate the other RPers; it is simply that while this cast does sound interesting, it's not my kind of cast in the least.
(nor am I saying this RP should be fitted to my standards; if I thought that then this post wouldn't be happening)

While my thanks do go to Krein for directing me to this RP, and while it was fun while it was, it is best that I resign.  I dislike resigning from an RP so soon after joining, but if the alternative is sitting on the sidelines silently and not posting because I can't get behind my character or those of others, I would much prefer to resign.  I will finish Ava's duel with Lyall, but will be departing from this RP afterwards.  And who knows, my plans for disposing of her just might help you guys stir up a little plot later ^_~

Cheers, mates.  Wish you the best on this RP :)</div></div></div>"

I've spent a long time doing nothing but watching in this rp, and frankly, I'm getting sick of it. 

Also, there are differing power levels between other people's deck, like Unending says, and... yeah. 

I know yugioh rp's can be slow, but this one has gone beyond that level. Sry guys, I must take my leave.</div>"

I was hoping to RP with you again UE, but if you really want to go, I won't stop you (your reasons can't be argued against afterall). And Scarifar, if it makes any difference I was going to go and interact with your character(s) once UE and I got our characters' duels out of the way...

I do have to say though, I can definitely see where Unending is coming from. With all due respect, I do think that some of the characters and posts need a bit more work and substance, especially considering this is the Casual section. And on the subject of the decks.... yeah, I know I've touched on this subject before, but considering we're already seeing two members drop out because of this I feel it's time to address it again and with my new thoughts since I last discussed it.

There REALLY does need to be a better balance with everyone's decks. I'm not talking about going in and saying, ""Hey, this card's pretty broken, take it out,"" I'm talking about going in and bringing everyone's decks UP or DOWN to the same general power scale. As I said before, on one end we have a very old school Blue-Eyes deck, and on the other end we have Nekroz/Satellarknights, decks that are literally current contenders in the current <span class=""bb-i"">meta</span>. It isn't fair or reasonable at all that the power creep apply to this (or any) Yugioh RP, or that certain decks (such as that DD Dynamite OTK) even be allowed to be suggested (because seriously, nobody likes dueling against decks that are solely designed to OTK). 
I don't mean to pick on anyone <span class=""bb-i"">that much</span> with this stuff, but we really do need to come to a general consensus on what the power cap should be so that we can avoid stuff like this and keep the RP enjoyable for everyone. UE and I agree that ""Tier 2"" and lower decks (such as his and mine) are the decks that while strong, are still balanced and reasonable enough to go against. I know that you, Dread, mentioned that orchestrating duels would give everyone a fair chance, but honestly I don't think that anyone's going to be too happy in knowing that the only reason their outclassed decks beat this one guy is because they had to <span class=""bb-i"">RIG</span> their duel :/... 

I still want to be part of this RP and definitely want to see it become a fun experience for everyone, but these problems do need to be addressed for that to happen. I have a couple of suggestions on how we can fix these things up, but I would like to hear what everyone else has to say too.</div>"

That's kind of what put Scarifar and Unending off though. Sure we can just orchestrate our duels to make it <span class=""bb-i"">seem</span> fair, but in the end that isn't exactly a satisfying experience since you only won (or heck, lost) because the duel was rigged.</div>"

@UnendingEmpire I am going to be honest the fact that you feel like this RP has poor leadership is  nothing I am going to argue I know this isn't something I should probably tell everybody but this is my first time GMing... EVER. So that being said I am trying my best and I completely understand where you are coming from.  

I had two other people in mind for Co-GM but one isn't too happy with the current dilemma right now and the other hasn't been seen in awhile... But there are other candidates! Oh dear. And as for the millenium eye... It is just an accessory it changes nothing of the duels but rather adds more depth to the RP which is fine with me!

Well let's see... I am not seeing a solution that will appease everybody. I mean I see a few clear ones. 1) Cut the new meta decks, 2)buff the weak ones. PKYMN BOY (pretty much all him) and I have come up with some different ideas like the ban ladder. Where older decks can use more banned cards and it climbs and falls accordingly. Should have probably implemented this sooner. Must have slipped my mind. 3) let things go as they are and hope somebody feels the satisfaction of doing a staged RP duel :l

Any other ideas?</div>"

In any Yugioh RP, they would likely be a major part of the plot, so having them around as a mere fashion statement doesn't really make much sense or add to a character in the end. Now, seeing as we already have Shadow Realm powers running around, I could help to come up with an idea of how we could implement them into the RP's story, if you'd like at least. On that note, I would also gladly fill in as another Co-GM to help out with this kind of stuff, as well as examining CSes, Decks, post quality, etc.

As for the deck issues, I think Option 1 is a given. In pretty much every Yugioh RP I've been in (or started myself elsewhere, for that matter), using meta decks (and by extension, decks built with no other goal in mind than a surefire OTK) wasn't allowed simply because of the power creep and annoyances they create. Sure, they can be great and fun to use irl, but no one really likes being on the other end of it unless they're also packing meta or a deck made to counter it <span class=""bb-i"">specifically</span>. Even if you want to disagree with this point, the statement before it still stands, and as UE has already mentioned, deck/power balance for an RP like this is very important. 
I wouldn't suggest allowing banned card because then everyone is going to want to use them, and uh... Konami banned those cards for a reason in the first place. I can think of a few ways to bring up the power scale of a few of the old school decks, such as Blue-Eyes considering I have an up to date, legal Blue-Eyes deck that uses the current mechanics of Synchro and XYZ and is absolutely crazy when/if it goes off. We'll need to remake a few decks obviously, within the limits of the banlist, but of course remake them to be a more efficient and powerful version of themselves. Like I said, I know I can do that much for Blue-Eyes, but others I'll have to take a better look at.
I think it's clear Option 3 is... pretty unlikely. Nobody likes a staged duel to win simply because a rigged victory isn't satisfying, and nobody for sure likes a rigged loss because they know they had things to counter whatever the other guy was throwing.</div>"

There'll be a pretty big plot hole in the RP if Fubuki and Joseph just spontaneously leave. I'd say you keep them, but change their decks. Of course, that means you'll have to go back and do a lot of editing, but it should be worth it.

I currently don't have a suggestion for Fubuki, but I know that for Joseph, Constellars are the way to go :). They're the original Tellars afterall, and are a more balanced Rank 4-5 deck that have access to some cool and powerful monsters. Ptolemy can replace Diamond as the favorite monster too, because I'm pretty sure Diamond IS Ptolemy in a later point within the DT story.

EDIT: Wait no, I think I've got one for Fubuki. Gishkis. Still follows the concept of Ritual Summoning, but again, more balanced. From what I've encountered before, they're still capable of pulling off strong plays, and for a new favorite monster.... Maybe Noellia? Or Emilia, but it'll all depend on what you use in the deck.

Speaking of Constellars and Gishkis, it'll open up some good interaction between them and Lyall because of the relationship their specific archetypes had within DT. </div>"

Not quite what I meant. I meant that in regards to the possibility that the RP ends up resetting, I'd probably draft up two completely new characters. I developed the characters with their decks in mind, so swapping decks on a whim like that just doesn't feel like it'd mesh well in my head.

I already had a few less-prevalent decks in mind for alternate characters should that scenario go through (Geargiakuris, Volcanics if they aren't too oppressive, Fire Kings, 'coons and Yang Zing, to name a few), though I don't know how big of a wrench that'd throw into things.

Not to mention the 4.5 axis of Constellars just kind of puts me off and I haven't a clue why. Like... 3.5 axis Fire Fists never bothered me. 4.5 just feels weird.

Edit: Well, given DT lore the suggestions do kind of make sense, but heavy reworking of the deck would take a while. I've also never playtested Gishkis before, and with some of their bosses on the banlist it's kind of...</div>"

I doubt that the RP needs a total reset on that subject, at least not yet.

I don't know what exactly you had in mind for your characters, but I think that replacing their current decks with Gishkis and Constellars shouldn't be TOO much of an issue since the two should still follow the same ""formula"". You know your characters better than I do though, so it's all up to you.

I highly recommend giving Constellars a chance though! They're likely my second favorite archetype following Lswarm, and I find them a lot more fun to play with because they're not as linear and autopiloted like Satellars.

Like... Drawing into Pollux is one thing, but then there's the whole drawing into Pollux thing and other than the triple RotA it's really annoying to tutor it from the deck. Not to mention, the deck itself is really scattered in terms of monster type and the amount of leniency it has for searching is comparatively less. Dead RotAs aren't helpful.

(Not to mention that the posts made regarding Joseph are already heavily mixed with Kenta's; edits there would cause a LOT of confusion.)

I've already made it internalized to try and not use Fubuki for many actual duels, but the inevitability of the situation still presents itself. I've been working on a Gishki deck and have been playtesting it multiple times over, but I just can't get on board with it because of all the brick hands and how it just doesn't fit Fubuki in my head.</div>"
2612,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-17 06:37:00,Krein,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">I opt to use 3 Tenkis in my build since the monster I'd rather see in hand is Kaust. Pollux is certainly nice to have in hand early on, but if you don't draw into him you should at least have another chance of being able to draw into Algiedi. She is somewhat like Pollux, but special summons a level 4 Constellar from the hand when normal'd. In a case where you don't have either, there's still other cards such as Siat and Cyber Dragon to pair up with Kaust or another Constellar. 
Back to Tenki, it can also be used to search Fire Fist Bear. He can make use of any Tenki already on the field and can search out a Tenki himself if you don't already have another. 

Well, doesn't seem like I can help you much with your character's then. The only thing I can <span class=""bb-i"">try</span> and say for the Joseph/Kenta issue is simply to pretend other things were done and said, but.... I dunno.

Also, just a question, but what kind of things did you have in mind for your characters when you made them with their previous decks? Telling that might help in finding you a solution.</div>"
2613,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-17 06:59:00,PKMNB0Y,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Well, my initial plan was to have Fubuki drop/get eliminated from the story early and duel... Almost never, in fact. She was meant to be a character that wasn't going to duel unless it was absolutely necessary (aka life/death or super important info) and I gave her the deck because I thought it fit the idea well. If she's not going to be dueling much at all, then giving her a decently strong deck to use especially if she was out of the tournament from the get-go should've been fine.

As for Joseph... I made him with Diamond in mind, so it's kind of weird to alter it at this point. I didn't have any specific theme, just that he had influence from OCG which led to Star Seraph Satellas.

Thinking about this a bit more, I think that the tag portion was what really slowed the RP to a near-grinding halt. Since our time zones are almost all out of sync, it becomes incredibly difficult to get 4 people in the same duel, then to work everything out as a group. This was the main reason as to why I believed a (pseudo) reset necessary- my characters and their decks aside, getting 4 people to collaborate under such conditions is incredibly difficult.</div>"
2614,Yugioh! : The 100th Annual Battle City Tournament,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75945-yugioh-the-100th-annual-battle-city-tournament,['Casual'],2015-02-17 07:28:00,Krein,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Yeah uh... I'm pretty sure most if not all of us can agree that Nekroz aren't exactly <span class=""bb-i"">decently</span> strong. There are other decks that fit that description that, while powerful, can't just generate advantage like nobody's business and easily find solutions to problems. Even if you didn't intend to use Fubuki in many or any duels, I doubt giving her a meta deck was the best call. Other than making the already mentioned power creep (and opening up opportunity for others to do the same), it's not going to sit well with anyone that there's a ""police"" character not controlled by the GM that's extremely hard to beat and can just stomp on everyone else. 

As for Joseph... I don't think that ""OCG/TCG"" existed in the anime, so I'm curious as to why you even brought that into the RP :/. At least in my point of view, I don't think that something like that will be too difficult to overlook or change. Heck, once you change his deck you can just make something up by saying he had certain cards that until just recently, ""weren't released from the OCG"" yet if you still want to go with that.

I'll agree with you on that tag dueling thing, it really has made the RP slow down to the point where it'll die pretty soon if it isn't jump started. Perhaps a pseudo reset is necessary. We don't need to start from the beginning of course, we can just restart right when the Khan makes his morning announcement to the duelists. Other than changing the whole tag duels to regular duels, it'll give you more ease in remaking your characters and whatnot. 

If we do that I can still manage to add in Ava and Lyall's duel against each other so that with it, things will go off with a bang.</div>"

Great to hear, man, I was hoping you'd stick around to see if things will pick back up! By the looks of it, a pseudo restart is where we're headed.

I'm currently looking into and about to playtest the deck. I've only faced them once before but I've read that they went undefeated at a YCS and apparently have their own themed Raigeki and ways to recycle 1500 damage. Let me get back to you on this.</div>"

That left field statement came to mind not long after I posted my previous post since people at those type of tournaments would only ever expect to see the accepted meta decks of the time. Anyway, after some testing and discussion with UE, we've decided that Volcanics are in the clear :).

Fun deck by the way, that Scattershot play is hilarious to use!

Oh, and speaking of UE, he told me that he would be happy to offer his abilities as another Co-GM for the pseudo-reboot. He's a good candidate for that I think, and would be able to take over when I or whoever Dread appoints as the new, first Co-GM isn't around.</div>"

I thought that we were just going to start at the Khan's ""K everyone duel each other"" announcement :/. I personally don't see anything wrong with starting this way, all we need to do is explain that our current members' duelists have been at Regno for a few days, have been dueling every now and then since they've been there, but just now are beginning to get into the actual tournament and plot for the RP. It actually might be helpful for new members for the RP to start in the middle of things, that way they can immediately get in on the action or have an opening for their character to approach and interact with another one.</div>"

I usually use the XYZ mechanic, so I'll try to explain. 

<img src=""http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141106204947/yugioh/images/6/6a/Number39Utopia-YS13-EN-SR-1E.png""/>

This is a pretty common XYZ monster. Instead of a Level, it has a Rank, indicated by the yellow stars coming from the left side of the card as opposed from the right. In Utopia's case, he is a Rank 4 monster that, as indicated by the ""2 Level 4 Monsters"" on its card, will require exactly two monsters on the field whose <span class=""bb-i"">levels</span> are 4 to be placed on top of each other (overlaying) in order to be summoned. Those monsters then become XYZ Materials and can be detached from the monster to activate its effect.
On that note, other XYZ monsters might require monsters of different levels (Constellar Pleiades) or more than two monsters to be overlayed (Evilswarm Ouroboros). Also, XYZ monsters come from the Extra Deck.

Synchro Summoning is a bit more complicated.

<img src=""http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141026141059/yugioh/images/6/6a/StardustDragon-LC5D-EN-C-1E.png""/>

Here's an iconic Synchro monster. As you can see, its card reads ""1 Tuner + 1 or more non-tuner monsters"". A tuner monster is a type of monster specifically used for synchro summoning and, like all other non-XYZ monsters, has a level. The level of the tuner and the level of the non-tuner both have to add up to exactly equal the level of the synchro monster you're trying to summon (8 in Stardust's case). You send the monsters (known as Synchro material) to the grave, and bam, Synchro monster from the extra deck.
Like with XYZ, there are other Synchros that are more complicated to pull off. Some require specific monsters or monster types to be used as a material, and others require things like 2 tuners to be used.

Learning the (sort of) new mechanics might seem a bit daunting, but its not too hard to get the hang of. Once you do though, you might find that you like it and begin to make decks centered around bringing out these kinds of monsters.</div>"

Some XYZ monsters can also be used as materials for another XYZ monster (such as Constellar Ptolemy M7 in the case of any Constellar XYZ monster).

Wait they did O_O? I didn't even know about this. I mean, I did hear that they performed well at a tournament somewhere but that's about it. I did happen to beat Nekroz in a tag duel though, but that's because I managed to get out a Clear Wing Synchro Dragon which fucked Trishula up BAD xD! Anyway, I've been doing a lot of play testing with them (they're pretty much already one of my favorite decks to use) and despite their crazy banish - special spamming, they aren't completely overwhelming. I also know this because I've played against them a couple of times before (one of the decks I used was Fire Kings) and the duels were pretty even, same with the win-loss ratio for both of us.
Their trap card though... it's basically a Moralltach in trap form since it doesn't target, but this is their main form of monster removal in the case that their rather standard attack isn't enough.

But yes. Ritual Beasts. Any other surprises I might not have heard of :p?</div>"

<font color=""orange"">Faction:</font> House of Hudson
<font color=""orange"">Sidearm:</font> Dwayne owns a small flick knife that he keeps strapped to the side of his ankle as well as a 6 shot revolver that operates differently compared to regular revolver designs. The rear of the gun contains an ejector slide that discards the fired shells much like how a semi-auto pistol expels it's used ammunition. This means that when reloading the user is always loading ammo into an empty barrel, thus making it slightly faster to reload than normal.

<font color=""orange"">Bio:</font> Dwayne is a younger brother to Jeffery H. Jnr and remembers very little about his father, Jeffery H. Snr, as the man was arrested when Dwayne was just a child. He grew up most of his life being cared for by his mother and the house maid while receiving a good education. When he reached his teenage years he began working for the mines that his family owned as a machine mechanic and repairman. Even though he was a part of the family business it didn't make his job easy. Occasionally he would have to venture underground for a couple of days in order to set up the rail tracks so the mining carts could enter the freshly uncovered caverns.

For his 21st birthday his family bought him a hand crafted revolver, both as a gesture of thank you for the work that he did and as a token for entering into adulthood. During his free time he would practice his shooting skills and found the quick reflex nature came almost second nature to him. At the moment he is helping his brother run the family with their many relatives and all their individual affairs in order to keep their high status in society.</div>"

The gear when loaded with coal can trigger a slight steam function that only aims to make it cut better by the steam being released through hidden pores. Currently can not be used for more than five seconds due to the steam starting to flow out of the gear to the user's hands.

<font color=""#ec008c"">Bio:</font> Aura V Lodestone, it is unclear what the V stands for as his mother sold him off to the mines to work for the Aristocrats to pay off a debt under the guidance of the Hudson Family who ran the mines and was due to an agreement between the Aristocrats and the Hudsons. His family name was based on an old mining family, however his talent for mining was not up to standard as he got tired too quickly and got sick too often. Not wishing to lose out on their servant producing them with a return for their investment, they began using him for minor errands as he would cook, clean and do just about anything the aristocrats did not want to do themselves. He was a shy boy and also a quiet one at that, so he avoided trying to mingle with other kids his age and was outcast due to his servant status. Due to his talent for performing errands he was not well received by the other servants who ended up having to work harder since the stupid boy did not know you should hide how much you can actually do or you end up with more and more work until you can not take it anymore. He occasionally got beaten up and while he still does cry, his not quick to cry unless he trusts someone which currently rates as no one.

He enjoys tinkering with gears, but his main creation the gear blade is still a work in progress along with his strange headwear which just basically blocks out or muffles sounds. The others felt it was stupid since you could just block your ears or something instead of this weird stupid looking device which later got stolen by a bunch of kids and used as a toy for some dogs. Being bullied and mistreated often he was not really enjoying his life and suddenly his life changed as the family he served under got killed off in an attack on the mansion. With his masters dead and nowhere else to go he now roams the streets with his stuff which includes a broken headset, his gear blade, just the bit of clothing he stole from the aristocrat section and customised in secret, though he just felt it was better to have it look a bit stupid so they would not figure out he stole it. He also has a small loaf of bread and two bottles of water left. 

Now he wonders where he will go and what he will do other than work on his gears again</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Faction:</span> Civilian
<span class=""bb-b"">Sidearm:</span> None, just carry a briefcase with surgical tools. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Knowledgeable in most aspect of medicine but does not practice them all. Dr. Elmore exclusively deals with surgery and refused patient with other complaints. He especially avoids any patient with infectious diseases. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> As a child, Vito always looked up to his father as a local family physician. He worked hard to be admitted in a medical school and eventually graduated to help his father with the clinic work. Many patients had seen him as a kind and understanding physician that saw them as individuals instead of as diseases. Among his colleagues, he was a great diagnostician and reductionist. For a while, everything seemed to be going in the right direction for Vito. He was taking over his father’s practice, and had made plans to marry a local girl, Bridget. However, an unfortunate contamination lead Vito to become infected with flesh-eating disease near his face and limbs. He survived the incident but was left scarred over a large percent of his body. 

He returned to work after the recovery but he began noticing the look of disgust some patients give him when they saw his face. His marriage to Bridget was the only brilliance during these dark days. Despite Bridget’s encouragement and persuasion, Vito began resenting his work as a physician in the clinic as he found people to be unworthy of his help. After his father passed, Vito closed down the clinic and returned to further medical training. When he finished, he took Bridget with him to Londonary where he opened a new clinic that specializes in surgery. It was here that he began wearing the bird mask used once before by physicians during the Black Plague. 

He accepted no one else in his clinic except those with surgical concerns, and his procedure often came at an unreasonably high cost. Although on the surface, Vito’s practice seemed to be barely out of the ordinary with regular civilians coming in and out each day to seek treatment. However, Vito’s patient often come with questionable backgrounds, as he has no moral qualms about who he operates on. Murderers, thieves, smugglers, anyone with money to spare. His client slowly began diverging, and he began being called upon to assist in “suicides”, and preserved several “volunteered” bodies in formaldehyde to practice on. 

He kept most of his practice secret from Bridget, and came home for dinner regularly everyday. On the other hand, Bridget began studying from her husband’s books and began helping patients that her husband refused to treat. The two never bothered each other in terms of their practice, and lived in peace during their stay in Londonary.</div>"

His father owned a machine shop in the lower end of the City of Londonary. When he was 9, Tyler's father brought him into the shop to start learning the trade of being a mechanic. Tyler quickly grew accustomed to the dirt and grime that came with working on machines, and soon grew a talent. After his father passed away at the age of 53, Tyler took over the shop at 17. Once he began working on his own, he started promoting the shop, which he renamed Machine's Cure.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Twenty-Eight 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Khorshid's appearance reflects his Persian heritage, his eyes a steely black, his hair thick, wavy, and coif, and his nose slightly curved. Khorshid stands at 6'2"" and is known for his boyish good looks. While his eyes are heavy-set and stern, his soft features and ever-present smile make him very approachable. Khorshid is often seen wearing clothes that is typical of an Englishman and will usually abandon his coat and roll up his sleeves when he is working. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Faction:</span> Children of Umbra

<span class=""bb-b"">Sidearm:</span> None 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Originally a student in Astronomy and a life-long academic, Khorshid has gained exceptional knowledge of science and mathematics. His understanding of theoretical science typically makes him a useful partner in research projects. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Khorshid Nassir os-Saltaneh is the fifth child of twelve born into the line of the Shah of the Persian Empire. As a child, Khorshid suffered from a debilitating heart condition that left him bed-ridden for most of his formative years. When he wasn't resting, he was often seen studying, spending hours researching and reading about the most recent scientific endeavor. Eventually, medical advancements and additional treatments allowed Khorshid to recover enough to begin living a relatively normal life. He must take pills twice a day to maintain his health, otherwise he could go into cardiac arrest.

As a teenager, Khorshid spent less time researching scientific discovery and focused instead on the world around him. He became aware of the political state of the Persian Empire and wished to end the attempts of imperialism by Western nations. Khorshid heavily involved himself in the business of the Persian military, and eventually, he joined the ranks as an officer at the age of eighteen. However, his years as a soldier were tumultuous at best. Eventually, Khorshid retired from the military and returned to academia in England. 

While at University, he returned to his passions and began to study Astronomy. Studying became a tool of escapism as the conditions at home continued to escalate. In order to protect himself, Khorshid took on the name Kent Mirza and became somewhat of a recluse for a time being. Not long after this, Khorshid's interests began to shift, his focus turning more to the matter of sustainable energy and alchemy. He kept these interests private, and maintained his persona as an Astronomy professor by day. To this day he continues as a researcher, keeping any thoughts of revolution to himself.</div>"
2687,Coal,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75950-coal,['Advanced'],2015-02-02 12:05:00,NuttsnBolts,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The sun had casts it's light upon the earth as it broke over the horizon to signal a new day, however it was already morning for the cluster of islands that floated about a thousand feet above the soil below. The people living on this island were already at work and preparing for the unique day ahead, a day that would never occur again in the history of the earth's existence. This was the day that everyone would experience it's first 36 hour cycle. Approximately 18 hours of daylight and a shared equal amount for night time, but in total a exact 36 hour day, and with this came a reason to celebrate for at midday the city mayor was going to unveil a gift to the city.

People hustled and bustled around in the streets to open up their stalls in the main square. The smell of freshly cooked food, of flowers and a hint of steam; the sounds of parents and children laughing and chattering; the sights of streamers, balloons and entertainers. You could feel the enjoyment coming out of the streets from wherever you were standing and it presented the city in a glow that showed all it's visitors that these were proud citizens.

The city mayor made his way through the crowd with his esteemed friend, Kacey Wall. The two of them had known each other for the longest of times and they took in as much of the lively atmosphere as they could.
""Such a beautiful day for the big reveal. Mother Nature could not have been so generous to us... Pardon me,"" Mayor Johnstone spoke as he squeezed by the many people that blocked his pathway, using his pudgy size as a bit of a bull bar for those that  bumped into him.
""Haha! It's the middle of Spring PJ. What did you expect? Could you imagine if this day occurred in the middle of the winter? It'd be a miserable snow festival!"" Kacey called forward as he pushed the people before him aside.

The two friends looked like complete opposites as they made their way through the crowd towards the speaker's stand near the City Hall. Peter Johnstone, the Mayor, was a medium size male with slick, brown hair and a regent moustache. He wore a traditional business outfit and his overall appearance presented itself with a large amount of pride and passion for the city he ran. Kacey Wall on the other hand was a slender male with a suit that announced itself with the image of money and power. His white undershirt was embroided with gold trimmings even though many people couldn't see as it was covered by a leather jacket and accompanying suit pants. He also wore a black top hat that had a set of goggles sitting upon the rim. Whether or not he used them was another question, but he used the hat mostly to cover up his blonde hair.

""Well,"" spoke the mayor as he approached the front steps of the podium, ""Looks like it's time."" He turned to his follower and saw the man give a subtle wave and nod indicating the best of luck for the speech.

A loud ringing tone echoed through the square as Peter switched on the microphone. 
""Welcome everyone,"" he began as he watched as people turned to face him, smiles abroad and happy to see that the time had come, ""Such an amazing day, isn't it? And what an amazing day to celebrate this time with the lovely people of Londonary. I'd never thought I'd see so many smiles and happy citizens as I made my way to this very spot here before in order to unveil my gift to the city.""
He motioned his hands towards the City Hall where what looked like a large clocktower was recently built. The face couldn't be seen as it was covered by a large sheet of material, but the mechanics of the design could be seen protruding from the outsides almost like someone had mis-measured the design and didn't realise how many gears and cogs would be needed to get the device to work.
""So with only a few moments to spare and before the clock strikes midday I would like to thank my friends from the Aristocrats for supplying the funds in order to allow this project to be bui.l.t....""
""Of course you would you cheap bastard!"" a voice from the crowd yelled in anger. Instantly police forces narrowed in on the area to find the offending individual and remove him from the festival.
""Now, Now"", reassured the mayor, ""This is a gift to the people, there is nothing to be concer.n.e.d...""

<span class=""bb-b"">DONG, DONG, DONG</span>

At that moment the bell tower rudely chimed to indicate midday and the curtains dropped down to make the big reveal. A pearescent white clock face lit up from the sunlight that landed on it's surface. The marking around the edge could be seen indicating that every 10 degrees was equivalent to one hour of time and the arms were made with large long lengths of iron that seemly stretched across the 3 metre face. People began to cheer with admiration until they slowly began to notice one interesting factor that wasn't initially accounted for, a fact that silenced a community before a few people screamed in horror. Tied to the hour hand and at that very moment and in an inverted position was a male lying lifeless, cold and lonely. Blood had smeared it's way around the face indicating that he had been there for several hours, but what was more interesting was the fact that he had been impaled upon this hour hand. The steel rod had been passed into his mouth and through his entire body, leaving him to look like he was attached to an inverted crucifix.

The city square erupted into a panic as people began to clear the scene. Peter and Kacey watched as everything they worked for over the past few weeks had began to crumble in their hands. The event that was supposed to bring so much to the city had been tainted over a single, horrendous death. As the stampede of people ran around the two of them they looked at the deceased, noticing some peculiar traits. The blonde hair, the highly expensive formal attire. Everything about this person reminded the two of someone they knew. It was the mayor that made the first connection as he looked towards Kacey in curiosity and shock. Kacey couldn't help but returned the stare, shaking his head sideways, trying so hard to break out of the nightmare that he had been trapped in.
""This-s-s... Thi-i-i. THIS ISN'T RIGHT!"" He cried out as he dropped to his knees and felt his eyes well up.
""I'm sorry,"" spoke Peter as he walked over and put his hand on Kacey's shoulder, ""But we must leave. I do not believe we are safe here."" He looked around the area, taking in all the faces of the people, not trusting which one would be a threat to them. ""I will arrange for your brother to be removed from the clock, but we mustn't stay any longer.""
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
The people around this particular man could be seen clearing the city square, but he stood there in the background and watched the scene that unfolded before him with mixed emotions were flowing in; some fear, some uncertainty, and a touch of humour. He could see the handiwork performed on the poor fellow that had been strung up onto the brand new clock as clear as day.

""Looks like someone's time was up,"" he chuckled to himself as he lifted his hat and placed it firmly upon his head.
""Really Dwayne? I do not think now is the right... moment.. for that,"" a rustic, smooth voice spoke as he passed the standing individual, avoiding an attempt to mention the word 'time'.
Dwayne spun around with a shrug and began to follow the voice, continuing on the conversation. ""Not my fault I'm able to come up with these puns, geez. But, you gotta admit that you aren't a little amused. It's been a while since this city has had a bit of drama.""
""Drama breeds chaos, and chaos is uncontrollable. We shouldn't be so quick to give the artist satisfaction for his work, otherwise we may as well just start a riot now and let the chips fall where they may.""
""What are you talking about Jeff?"" Dwayne asked with a sense of curiosity, trying to understand what his brother was talking about.
""That was one of the Wall twins up on that clock,"" Jeffery spoke with a sigh taking a look back over his shoulder to see whether his brother understood the severity of what had happened, ""And who do you think they'll blame?""

It was was going to be pretty obvious. To the people the Hudson's had a motive, a reason to want revenge on the Aristocrats; and unless someone was working out of line both Jeffery and Dwayne knew that their siblings weren't responsible. Still, it didn't change the facts, nor would it change future events and plans.

The two reached one of the many bridges that connected the islands together and made their passage across to the next land mass. Their true meaning for being up in Londonary wasn't really for the festivals, but more for a business deal. Dwayne's fellow workers had manage to come across a large seem of mineral and valued it at quite a high price. They had also found a potential buyer who was interested and thought the polite thing to do would be to pay them a visit and what they could get for the raw ore.</div>"

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the clock across from the bed and saw it was five in the morning. Earlier than usual, she thought as she got up and slipped into her slippers. She walked lightly towards the kitchen and saw the back of a familiar man. A slight smile came on her face and she began to tip-toe across the room. However, the creak of the floorboard alerted the man to her presence. 

The man spoke to her in a rough and mellow voice without turning around, “Did I wake you up?”

Shoot, Bridget thought and sighed. “No you didn’t.” She walked over beside him and placed her hand on his shoulder. “Go freshen yourself up, let me take it from here.” She took the spatula from his hand and gently pushed him towards the small sink in the bathroom. He slowly walked over to it and took the towel off the rack when he’s there. She managed to take a good look at her husband then through the mirror in front of the sink. 

He soaked the towel with water before putting it against his face. As he wiped the towel down from his face to his neck, his scarred face became clear in the mirror. The memory of the old injury smeared across the right side of his olive tinted face and down into the limbs. It healed, but never managed to recover to the way it was, with his slightly droopy right eye as evidence. His pale grey eyes stared back at her from the mirror, glazed with tiredness. When he’s done cleaning, he came over to Bridget to take over the cooking. She handed the spatula back to him and went to the sink for her turn. She pulled her blonde hair back to tie it into a bun before rinsing herself awake with cold water.  She looked up to the mirror to see the familiar pale oval face with two gleaming emerald eyes. A shadow was noticeable under her eyes from the late night studies. 

She glanced over to see him bringing the two plates of breakfast to the dining table in the center of their hybrid kitchen and dining room. They lived in a small apartment, the top floor of a two floor building. It was made of three rooms neatly arranged together into a square: the bedroom, the kitchen and the washroom. There are no doors to the rooms, but neither of them felt a need to. After all, they never received any guests since they moved to Londonary. Of the years they’ve spent together, Bridget fully understood that her husband was a private individual. She was fine with that, in fact, she held some pride that she’s one of the few who knew the true Vito Elmore.

“Tough night?” Bridget asked as she put the pan into the sink to be washed later. 

“Same as usual,” Vito came over to Bridget and grabbed the utensils behind her.  

“Want any tea?” Bridget held up the kettle with the freshly boiled water. 

“Not today, I want to get some sleep after breakfast. Come let’s eat,” he pulled the chair out for her and took the remaining chair. 

As she ate her breakfast, she stared out the window behind Vito. There were already sounds of people gathering and walking to the city square. “You know, soon each day would be 36 hours.”

“We’ll have to figure out whether to work or sleep more because of it."" 

“Maybe you’ll finally have an excuse to take that nap at noon you've always wanted,” she suggested it to him.

“I’ll need to update the sign at the clinic then.”

“And the clock,” she reminded. “The whole town is getting new clocks, so we should too.”

Vito paused for a brief moment and looked to her. Bridget noticed and gazed back at her husband, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Vito smiled, and returned to cut up his eggs.  

Bridget’s gaze lingered on Vito as she thought what was on Vito’s mind. She shook the thought away shortly after, and resumed the conversation. “They’ll be celebrating today at the city square.”

“Mhmm, I heard it too. You wanted to go?”

“No,” she quickly replied, “It just reminded me of the last time we went to the fair back in our hometown. Do you remember?”

Vito nodded. Of course he remembered. It was before the accident at his father’s clinic, shortly after he met Bridget. He has memory of them, but he could no longer relate to them in his present condition. He got up from the table, and walked over to the kitchen counter. He opened the cabinet above the stove and rummaged through the materials inside.

“What are you looking for dear?” Bridget asked from where she sat. 

“Some teabags,” Vito replied. 

“I thought you said you didn’t want any,” Bridget got up and walked over to him. 

“I changed my mind. I thought it would be interesting to take a walk together to see how this celebration of theirs compares to ours.” Vito looked at Bridget with a grin that seemed so childish that she couldn’t help but grin back.

“The tea bag is on your right. Here, let me get it for you.”

<div class=""bb-center"">----------</div>

By late morning, both Vito and Bridget had their fair share of food stalls and trinkets. They managed to found a crate placed beside a house nearby and decided to use it to rest their feet. Despite being tired, Bridget was in high spirits, dragging him from stall to stall as if this was the first time she’d been in an event like this. Bridget convinced him not to wear his mask, and he was glad. With the high volume of people moving about, barely anyone took notice of his look. Ironically, it is within crowds that Vito manage to find his place of normality. Vito had always avoided going out on regular days, besides walking to and back from his work. The rest of his time, he spent sitting in the dining room listening to Bridget’s stories. They’d sometimes discuss medical issues, sometimes politics, but all within the vicinity of their apartment. Occasionally, if there was no work at night, Vito would share a walk with Bridget in the dark. However, the chances for these walks were far too few ever since they’ve moved to Londonary. Bridget had become much like Vito’s eyes, giving him the details of the cities that he otherwise would not know. She always had the sharper eyes for things he’d miss. 

He looked at her now, with her eyes beaming as she took in everything around her. Although Bridget is not greedy for wealth, she had always been greedy for adventures. Vito just wished he wasn’t going to trap her within his tiny little world. “Look, that’s Mayor Johnstone. I heard he’s really popular within the city.” 

Vito followed her finger to a finely dressed medium sized man followed by a slender male. “Who is the mayor?”

“The one with the mustache,” she laughed softly, “You really have no idea about this city do you?”

“And beside him?”

“Probably an Aristocrat, after all, the project is funded by them.”

Vito nodded to Bridget’s answer before another question popped into his head, “What is this project?”

“It’s a clock tower. You see it covered in the distance?”

Sure enough, there it is in the distance. As Vito was fixated on the clock tower, he felt Bridget’s head resting on his arms. He pulled his arm from under her and held her close by the shoulder instead. Under the warmth of the sun and Bridget, Vito began feeling the effect of tea slipping away and sleep crawling back into him. Just as he closed his eyes he heard the sound of the mayor, “Welcome everyone.”

The couple’s head snapped back up and look to the direction of the announcement. As the mayor tried to make his announcement, a heckler yelled out but was quickly removed from site. As the mayor tried to resume he was interrupted yet again by the sound of the clock tower. The curtain dropped soon after. 

If Vito was familiar with anything, it was medicine. And the one thing he saw in medicine more than anything else is the failure of it, a dead man. Therefore, before the curtain dropped completely, Vito’s eyes caught a glimpse of just that. Quickly, he covered the Bridget’s eyes but unfortunately Bridget always has the sharper eye. “W-w-who?” She asked, her body shivering from what she just saw. 

Before Vito could comfort her, the square exploded into panic. When the crowd of people stampeded out of the square, Vito pushed Bridget against the walls of the house behind them and shielded her from it. “Why…who?” she tried to look behind her to the source of it, but Vito wouldn’t let her. 

“Doesn’t matter, let’s go home,” was the only answer he gave as he slowly walked her out of the square along the walls. 

When the crowd finally thinned and they were almost home, their pace slowed to a halt. She was still shivering, and her eyes stared blankly onto the road with her head replaying the same image over and over again. He pulled her to the side and held her face with his hand, “You going to be alright?” 

She finally regained her awareness and looked into his eyes. She bit down on her quivering lips and breathed slowly to calm her heart beat. “Yes. I just…,” she sighed, “Maybe it was a mistake to come out today.”

“No,” Vito assured her, “Someone else made the mistake today.”</div>"

Normally fixing radios was a small task that took 8 hours, and that was if he wasn't working his hardest. But this set had been a custom order and contained a plethora of small parts that had to be taken out before anyone could even get to the small power source in the center, which just happened to be what needed repairing. As he looked at the mahogany box and took a second to admire it's almost regal detailing. The golden curves engrained in the wood made the radio a piece of art, even though it's function was to simply listen to music and the occasional afternoon talkshow. 

As Tyler carried the radio to the storeroom in the workshop, he heard the sound of cheer outside his shop. ""Oh yeah,"" he said aloud to himself. ""They're unveiling the new clock today."" He decided that if he didn't have any customers come in within five minutes, he would go and join the festival. As he walked to the front of the shop, he noticed that the normal group of two or three customers that were there each day to check on their machines weren't there. Tyler shrugged, went back into the actual shop, and washed his face off with a rag. As he looked into the mirror above the small work sink, he noticed his trademark stubble was starting to grow again. ""Guess I'll have to trim it up later,"" he whispered to himself. He took off his work shirt, which was a plain white shirt, and put on his normal one and his jacket over that. 

As he stepped out of the shop, he turned and locked the door. Considering the fact that the sounds of cheer was echoing back at him, Tyler assumed the sound earlier was a group of people on their way to the festival. Just as he had taken the key out of the lock, a new wave of partygoers had just reached his shop and pushed him along with them. As he was being buffeted down the street, he thought about the festival and whether it was a good idea to possibly miss a few customers by going. As soon as he got there, he realized that he made the right decision; It seemed like everyone in Londonary had shown up to see the unveiling. The group that had practically carried him down the street dispersed, and Tyler took a more leisurely pace down the stalls. He stopped at a small one with a simple scarlet cloth on the top that was more on the outside of the stalls and saw an older woman, probably in her 60s, sitting behind it. 

As he approached, she smiled at him and began to stand. ""Hello young man, care to buy some jewelry for your young lady?""

Tyler chuckled. ""No lady to buy jewelry for, madam. Work keeps me far too busy for such things."" Regardless, he looked at her stock and his gaze fell upon a necklace. It looked like an ordinary necklace, except the small chain that made the loop wasn't made out of chainlinks, but a bunch of micro gears that were connected, and the piece hanging from the end were two small screwdrivers that were crossed. ""Excuse me,"" he said as he picked it up, ""How much for this one?""

The lady looked at the necklace and then to Tyler. ""What's your interest in it? I thought you didn't have a lady to purchase anything for."" 

""Well, I'm a mechanic. Just the style of it reminded me of work, that's all."" As soon as he said it, he realized how addicted to his job he sounded.

She chuckled. ""I guess I'll only charge you 15 dollars.""

Tyler took the money out of his pocket and handed it to the Lady, thanked her, and walked off with his new necklace. He hadn't taken five steps before he saw cotton candy and immediately speed walked over to the stall. He ordered one and walked towards the middle of the plaza, thought better of it, and began walking more towards the outside of the stall area. As he walked past a house, he noticed his doctor sitting on a box. He was about to walk up and say hello, but realized that he was with a woman and they both had their eyes closed. <span class=""bb-i"">I shouldn't disturb them, I wouldn't want to be if I was him.""</span> Tyler walked on a bit, browsing the stalls, then heard the Mayor's voice ring out with, ""Welcome, everyone."" As he gave his speech, the Mayor thanked the Aristocrats for donating money to the project. ""Of course you would you cheap bastard!"" someone yelled out in front of him. The guy was instantly surrounded by police forces and was dragged off. Though they had gagged him, he was still attempting to yell insults. 

As the Mayor attempted to restart his speech, the clocktower chimed the new midday and the sheet covering the now 36-hour clock fell off. As soon as it did, the first thing that was noticable was the body impaled on the hour hand, and the trail of blood following it. After a few moments of silence, the crowd started yelling and running away. Tyler thanked himself for deciding to stand closer to the outside of the plaza and ran for his shop, hoping to get away from the charging crowd. As he got to his shop to try and escape the flood of people, he fumbled with the key in his pocket. Just as he got the door unlocked and slammed the door behind him, part of the crowd ran past the door. Tyler backed into the wall and slid down, wondering who would have a reason for causing such a scene.</div>"
2690,Coal,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75950-coal,['Advanced'],2015-02-05 10:22:00,Aura Lodestone,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">He was not sure how long it had been since he had went off on his own as he checked his backpack, he only had half of his bread left and his water had already began to run out. He was all alone in this world with no friends or family, right now he was lost and without a purpose other than his blade which he kept in his bag as well. He got really lost in the street as there seemed to be a huge commotion of sorts, as he could not figure out what was actually going on at the time.

He looked around really confused as to why the people were so busy and noticed some people setting up stalls as it was his first time actually seeing the main square of town before. He had spent so much time in the mines and working under people he never got to see the world around him.
He could smell some fresh food that was probably cooked recently, but he began to think that he would soon starve since he had no money. He had only remembered now that he should have taken money before setting off on his adventure or journey to find his place in the world. He also heard some parents laughing and playing with their children as he looked down sadly having never known that experience too well. He felt deep down inside he did not fit in with this place as he began to search around for a place to go work on his gears.

He was not all there when suddenly he got knocked over as he fell on his back as this really pudgy man knocked him over, a familiar man who he had forgotten was the mayor of this town. Not that it really mattered he was a bit upset that the man just did not take note of who was in his way, did not matter who you were could no one respect people or have any manners. Then a serious guy stood over the kid and said.
""Watch where you going kid, do not go bothering the mayor you little brat""

He wanted to hit this guy so hard right now, but that would not help him get to work on more gears, as he sighed and looked away and just whispered stubbornly, ""Sorry..."" giving a deep pause as if he wanted to add something to the end of that fake apology. Why did he need to apologize to people when they are in the wrong, or was it always meant to be him who was wrong all the time. He had to be wrong because he was a peasant, a worthless brat, a servant who now no longer had a master. He was nothing more than a stray dog to this rich people he thought to himself. As he sat there people just walked passed him as if he was not even there, not like anyone would care since they were too busy enjoying something. 

He heard someone announcing it was time as he just sat there and listened. The man then said something that helped him get an idea of where he was, he was in Londonary and it had been some time but he was not even sure when he had gotten there to be honest. He heard something about an amazing day, but was there really such a thing as an amazing day as the little boy thought to himself. He then began thinking more and looked up to the sky and wondered why he could not just get work since he was already sixteen. The people here would accept him would they not?

He then saw something he had never seen before as they unveiled a large clock, the beautiful gears and the pristine design, the creation so perfect until he noticed a blemish as he held his mouth for a moment nearly losing himself at the sight as he remembered that day. He wanted to get away from this place as the people all began running like crazy, one person kicked him to the side and a few stepped on him as well with some people only going around him afterwards. He was used to being treated like dirt anyways as he did not know where to go from here, he tried standing up slowly a bit hurt and feeling sore here and there. 

He then stood up and looked towards the clock tower as he glared at it wondering who would defile this beautiful clock, rather than thinking about how they could have killed the person to begin with. Before he even knew it he was nearly alone in the town square as he took this time to scavenge some resources getting some food and coin and stuffing it into his backpack. Not that anyone cared they just ran off on their own it was their fault for not watching over their goods. No matter what happens if you do not look after yourself then no one else will, is what he had thought and would continue to think. This was just another day in the life of Aura</div>"

""Calm down Kacey! Getting angry won't change what happened, besides, we have no idea who did it.""

Kacey and Peter sat within opposite sides of the car that was speeding away from the scene. Kacey's expression was both full of rage and on the edge of sorrow while Peter was trying his hardest to bring out that sorrow and suppress that violent animal that Kacey held within. Knowing that the Mayor was beginning to talk sense, Kacey punched the side wall of the cabin in order to let as much frustration out as possible in one go. The force leaving the surface of his skin torn and blood began to weep it's way from the wound.

""I told you before, did I not, that I will arrange for your brother's body to be obtained, and then we will uncover what happened and deal with those involved in the correct, 'legal' manner,"" Peter sat back in his chair and let out a deep breath knowing that he was beginning to get through to his friend. ""I know of a Surgeon in the city with some questionable backgrounds. Information of his arrival and Right to Practice appeared on my desk not too long ago,"" His words began to contradict exactly what he was talking about in the previous statement, but they were drawing Kacey's attention like a moth to a flame. ""...however, I dismissed the documents due to the dire lack of physicians we have at the current time.""

The information about the Mayor's motives came at almost the same time that the car arrived to a halt at the Aristocrat's Manor. The door opened out to reveal the bright sunlight from outside, a brightness that forced Kacey to shield his eyes with his hand.

""Have a think about what I said,"" Peter spoke as he looked forward without being phased by the radiating heat coming in from the outside, ""Until next time.""

Kacey stepped down onto the dirty brick pathway and heard the door close behind him, he turned around to see a driver step back into the front and give him a wave goodbye. As the sound of the motor faded off before him, he made his way towards the front door where he saw it open. Emerging from inside was a woman with long, red hair and a beautifully hand crafted dress. She came for him in a joyous dash but quickly noticed the expression on his face before slowing down to a standstill.

""What's wrong?!"" She asked as she held his hands to the side of her face.
""Michael's... dead,"" he whispered to his wife as her face began to loose all colour. ""I need to speak to the True Heir."" Slowly Kacey pulled his hands away and began to walk past her towards the front door, leaving her in shock as to what had happened today.

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

The two men waited for the majority of the crowd to clear before stepping away from the alcove. Slowly they walked the streets, noticing that with every step they took the alleyways and corridors grew even more silent and abandoned. It was unusual, almost eerie and creepy but they soon stopped opposite a small Machine Shop. Jeffery looked across the street at the sign while Dwayne was a bit more inquisitive noticing all the shops that were closed for the day.

""You sure about this place?""

""Positive,"" spoke Jeffery as he pulled a lump of rock from within his coat and examined the radiant beauty that it contained. ""He will surely be interested in this. It's not every day that you come across a quantity of ore as rare as this."" Jeffery began to cross the street towards the shop with Dwayne following him like a lost dog.

They reached the side walk when Dwayne spoke about something that should of remained unspoken unless they were within closed doors, ""And will he build the same Jackhammers his father built?""

At that moment he felt a push and was pinned against the wall next to the shop front with Jeffery staring him in the eyes, ""Fool! Think before you speak next time."" The pressure off Dwayne was released and Jeffery straightened up his clothes to make him look more presentable. He took a look around noticing that there was very little chance for anyone around to hear what it was that they quarrelled about before finally addressing his sibling, ""Brother, you know full well that we do not discuss his 'arms' out in public.""

Jeffery moved towards the shop door and pressed against it, noticing that it was open and chimed off a small bell from above the door jam. His brother followed suit knowing that this was a brilliant example as to why Jeffery was in charge of the family affairs.</div>"

""Excuse me sirs, give me a moment, I'll be right with you."" He walked behind the counter into the back room and changed back into his work outfit. As he took his coat off, he felt the necklace he bought in his pocket. Tyler took the necklace out, took a moment to admire the design once more, and put it on and tucked it under his shirt. He quickly washed his hands off splashed water on his face to try and calm down after the panic in the courtyard.

As he walked back to the front of the shop, he put on a smile and tried to appear friendly. ""Sorry about that. How may I help you?""</div>"
2693,Coal,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75950-coal,['Advanced'],2015-02-18 20:16:00,m0rat0r1um,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Ten years ago, when the Clyde brothers travelled to the City of Londonary, they were still two naïve young lads. Taking their grand dreams with them, they set out to make a name for themselves. They came from a family of shepherds, with their parents expecting the same from them. However, their peaceful lifestyle did not lead them away from the passion of hunting. With a few pellets and a rifle, the boys spent their free time in the woods hunting wild games. The woods were like paradise to them, with the trickling streams and the sweet autumn winds. They would often camp in there for days when they can, and be out after several days with a couple of pheasant hanging on their shoulders. Despite their love for the wood, they also knew to pay its proper respect. The woods had been the setting of many tragedies in their village, and the boys took care not to become one of them. 

Riley, the older of the two, was the better hunter. Patient and talented in sharpshooting, he took great care of his younger brother Tyler when they journeyed into the woods. Tyler, on the other hand, was much more cautious and meticulous, and covered Riley’s back whenever he can. In growing up, both brothers came to love the story of Robin Hood. The idea of a heroic outlaw was fascinating, and they’ve spent their days alternatively playing the role of the folklore hero. One day, they told themselves, one day they’ll make the story a reality. 

When Tyler reached sixteen, the two brothers packed their belongings and bought the first available ticket to Londonary with their savings. They decided to make their debut in the floating city, fighting crime and corruption. When they stared out the windows of their airship, Riley handed Tyler the last piece of bread in his bag. “That’s the last of it. From here on out, we are going to have to earn our food,” Riley told Tyler.  

Tyler nodded to his brother’s words, and split the bred in two. He handed the bigger half to Riley, “You are bigger, so you’ll need more.”

Riley patted Tyler on the head and snatch the smaller piece instead, “You need to eat more to grow as big as me,” he flexed his arm then, showing the well-defined girth of his arm. For that moment, when Tyler looked to his brother and his silly grin, he thought they were unbeatable. 

That was ten years ago. The present day Clyde brothers lack much of the optimism of their early days. If there was anything they learnt it’s that no one is unbeatable. 

Within the narrow confines of a dark alleyway, Tyler set Riley down by the wall as he went to check the main street which they would be crossing. The soft light of the moon had shone upon Tyler’s upper body, showing he had indeed grown over the years, not quite to the size of his brother, but athletic nonetheless. His time spent in Londonary had carved new scars upon his bodies, and dimmed the look in his eyes. He walked back to Riley when he was satisfied with what he saw, “The coast is clear, here let me help you.”

Riley grunted as he wrapped his arm around Tyler’s shoulders. His other hand clenching tightly around his side flank, stained with fresh red blood. He braced himself before lifting himself up with Tyler’s help. No words came from him, as he saved his energy to maintain his composure. “We are almost there,” Tyler comforted Riley, “Just one more street to cross.” 

They shuffled across the empty street and into another alleyway, hidden by the darkness of the night. Tracking along the walls, they found a set of stone stairs leading down to the basement blocked by a metal door. Tyler looked around to make sure no one’s nearby before knocking. Moments later, the door was opened slightly, revealing a slit of dim light behind it. However, even then, Tyler could catch sight of the person behind it. What he saw wasn’t a face, but the long beak of a mechanical bird attached to the torso of a human. Tracking up along the beak, Tyler saw a pair of grey eyes behind two glass lenses, indicating that they are indeed dealing with a human. He was told the doctor might be strange, but he certainly wasn’t expecting to notice it so soon. 

“Dr. Elmore?”

The birdman nodded his head, “I was expecting you, please come in.”

The door opened, revealing decently sized room surrounded by stone walls and floors. One thing that immediately caught Tyler’s attention was the lack of windows. Indeed, he didn’t notice any windows on his way here either. The ventilation is completely dependent on what Tyler assumed to be vents on the ceiling. “Follow me,” the doctor instructed, leading them away from the door and down another set of stairs on the far side of the room. “I like to keep my practice private,” Dr. Elmore explained as he opened another metal door at the end of the stairway. 

Despite been in the basement, the room resemble very much like many hospital that Tyler had seen. There is a water tap running on one side, and shelves filled with multiple medical instruments and drugs. The room is separated in half by a curtain, hiding the operation table behind it. “There is negative pressure generated in this room, so the room is supposed to be sterile. So, if you please, leave your brother by the operation table there, and return to the room above. I’ll inform you when the operation is finished,” the doctor motioned for Tyler to place Riley on the table. 

Tyler didn’t budge, “I’m sorry, but I am going to stay here. I didn’t bring my brother here just to leave him. I want to be here during the operation.” He looked to Riley who agreed with a nod.

“That will increase the risk of infection Mr. Clyde, the result of which can very well be permanent disability,” Vito argued otherwise. 
“My brother’s willing to take the risk, and so am I,” Tyler was persistent with his wishes. 

After considering a brief moment, Vito nodded. “Very well, help me lift your brother on the table, and I’ll teach you how to clean yourself so you can minimize the contamination. The rule is: you don’t touch anything until I tell you to.”

Moments later, both Vito and Tyler were gloved and dressed in white gowns. The bird mask is no longer on Vito’s head, but was replaced by a surgical mask and cap. Riley lay on the table shirtless, and breath in short shallow breathes as he waits to be operated upon. Tyler stood idly by, watching both his. He looked up to see Vito arranging the various instruments on a smaller table beside the bed, not able to recognize quite a few of them. “Will he be alright?” He asked, as he watched Vito prepare. 

“Maybe,” Vito didn’t look up, and picked up a syringe. “He has a fever. I’m going to try to calm that down.” He jammed the needle into Riley’s arms, and emptied the content inside. “Anesthetics next. Passed me the syringe on the table to your left.”

Tyler looked around briefly before locating what he thinks is the correct syringe, “Is this the one?”

Vito took it from his hand without a word, and emptied the content into Riley like the one before. The anxiety from Riley eased as the medication settles in, and his eyes glazed over slightly. “Now hold your hand together and don’t touch anything, and take a few steps back please.” 

Without waiting for Tyler to respond to his orders, Vito began sifting through the wound with his gloved hands. Tyler watched as Vito moved about, switching tools from scalpels to needle drivers. “How did your brother get this injury?”

“Does it matter?” Tyler asked, uncertain whether to give the answer or not. 

“No. Your employer already told me about them. Just wanted to know whether you trust me.”

“Guess I don’t.”

“That’s alright. I don’t need you to trust me,” there was a brief pause as Vito focused on the task at hand, “Not many people do.”

There was a pang of regret in Vito’s voice that made Tyler look up and examine the doctor’s face. Slightly curious, and with nothing else to do, Tyler pursued the doctor’s statement, “What do you mean?”

“What have you heard about me?” Vito answered the question with another. 

Tyler went over what he had gathered about Vito prior, and not much came to mind. He was told that Vito was a surgeon willing to operate on anyone with the price to pay. Corrupt maybe, but nothing significant according to their employer. “Not much. So why do few people trust you?”

“Stupidity,” there was such bitterness that came from Vito’s words that Tyler was taken aback. “Do you know what is necrotizing fasciitis?” 

Tyler shook his head. 

“It’s a bacterial infection, involving the death of your tissues. Some people call it the flesh eating disease, which can be misleading because the flesh isn’t eaten; it dies because of the toxins. The only way to treat it? Surgical removal of any flesh involved. Not a pleasant procedure for anyone involved.”

“And you had it?” Tyler deduced. 

Vito didn’t reply, but Tyler knew he got the answer. Tyler thought about it slightly more, “It was on your face, and that’s why you wear the mask.”

“Smart boy,” Vito replied. 

“How bad is it?”

“Bad enough for some to believe I worship the devil,” Vito laugh softly from under the mask. 

“How did you get it?”

“By helping another who suffered from it.”

Hearing this, Tyler moved closer to the surgical table, “Wait, so it spread? Does it mean you could infect my brother?”

“Don’t worry. It’s no longer infectious.” Vito looked up to meet Tyler’s eyes. Tyler noticed now the droopy right eyelid that must be the result from the incident. “But do you trust me?” Vito asked. 

Tyler sighed, “Do we even have a choice?” Moving back away from the table, Tyler slumped into a chair. “It’s been a while since we had any say in our life.”

“What’s your case?”

“The usual one. Two young lads thinking they could change the world. Both realized the world’s a much crueler place than they thought,” Tyler smiled sheepishly, “And they don’t have the face to go back where they come from.”

“How did you want to change the world?”

“Redistribute the wealth from the rich to the poor. Eliminate the class divides. A revolution maybe. But we realized too late that people don’t want revolution anymore, everyone just wants routine.”

“Should perhaps studied politics instead of hunting, no?”

Tyler laughed, “Yes, definitely.”

“Robin Hood doesn’t exist anymore.”

“We realized it. Too late maybe.”

“So you became assassins instead.”

Tyler let out a deep sigh, and settled in his chair. “You know, that’s not what we wanted. None of this,” Tyler motioned to Riley lying on the table, “But that’s the only thing we know.”

“And that bracelet on your wrist,” Vito glanced at Tyler before returning back to his work, “Is that a remainder of your home?”

“Oh this?” Tyler lifted his arm up, and examined the bracelet on his arm. It was a simple bracelet of blue beads, held together by red threads. “No. This was just something from a dumb girl.”

“See her much?”

Tyler smiled, but it lacked any joy from it. His eyes remain fixated on the beads around his wrist. “The thing with our profession is that you can take away anything that’s precious from others, but at the same time, others could do the same to you.”

“I’m sorry,” Vito apologized.

“No don’t be,” Tyler sighed again, “As I said, she was a dumb girl.”

Vito stopped what he was doing, and gazed at Tyler for several second, then sighed himself. A few moments later, Vito took off his glove and walked over to Tyler, “It’s done.”

“Is my brother alright?” Tyler looked away from his wrist and back to Vito. 

“Yes. He just needed some rest. Come, give him some time,” Vito pushed opened the door and walked upstairs. Tyler shook his head, “I’ll stay here till he wakes up.” 

“Suit yourself, I’ll grab some food for myself,” Vito offered Tyler a seat as he went upstairs to grab some food. He returned moments later with a plate of bread and deli. It was then that Tyler noticed that Vito still wore the surgery mask from before. “Why don’t you take your mask off?”

“I prefer not to. It’s not a pleasant sight.”

“It’s okay. I’m sure I’ve seen worse before. Besides, I don’t think neither of us has much to hide from the other.”

Vito considered it for a moment, and then slipped the mask off slowly, revealing the scarred face from below. Tyler got a careful look of the face this time. Indeed, just as Vito eluded, the face was badly scared and hollow at some parts. “Yep, definitely seen worse. I would put you above average in terms of looks from the people I’ve seen,” Tyler joked. 

Tyler sees what could have been a smile on Vito’s face. “Thanks.” He then took a seat a couple steps away from Tyler, and began making a sandwich for himself.  

“It’s rare to see meat these days,” Tyler commented as he looked at the plate. 

“If nothing else, my profession pays me well, and it gives me freedom to be at home when I need to. How about you? When is the last time you had a proper meal with the family?”

Tyler shrugged and gazed at his brother’s body on the table, “If you meant just with my brother, then it’s been a while. If you meant with my whole family…I would guess that’s ten years. You?”

“Every night at six, I close my clinic and walk home to eat dinner with my family. It’s the only thing that never changed ever since I began practicing here, because it’s the only thing that matters. Don’t you think so? To know that you have a home to return to?”

“But not everyone has the choice. You think we can back out from what we do, and go eat dinner with our family?”

“I think we all have a choice, what’s left is just consequences.”

Tyler laughed a hearty laugh, “For someone your age, you are quite naïve. What are you? Mid thirties?”

“Just about,” Vito finished the last bite of the sandwich he made. “It’s getting late, and I am getting old. My hands are even shaking when I don’t have enough rest.”

“How are you going to survive when they reveal the new time and clock tomorrow?” Tyler asked half-jokingly.

“Simple answer, I won’t,” Vito jested in reply, “Let’s get your brother out of here, so I can get home to get some sleep. By the way, do you also have my payment?”

“Ah, yes,” Tyler almost forgot, but was reminded to take out a sack of coins and tossed it to Vito, “Two hundred pound as requested.”

Vito put the sack aside, “I’ll trust you with the numbers. Alright, you start lifting from this side. I’ll go around the other side to help you.”

Tyler nodded and moved close to Riley on the table. As he put his hand under the body, he felt an unsettling cold from it, “Hey, is it suppose to –.”

His words were cut short when he felt a freezing sensation his back. He rotates his head in time to see Vito throwing a syringe into a bin by the wall. By then him leg turned weak and bends beneath him. There was brief moment of confusion on his face, before it turned to an expression of seething rage, “What did you do?”

“Spinal injection. Chemical destruction of your spinal cord. Normally hard to landmark where you can inject in someone who’s obese, but for someone as well toned as you, it’s quite simple,” Vito explained as he walked over to Tyler, who’s lying on the floor. “I’m afraid I haven’t been completely honest with you.” There was emptiness in Vito’s eyes as he looked over Tyler then at Riley. 

“Why?”

“Why not? After all, I was paid a good amount for this,” Vito pointed at the sack of money he had left on the table. He squatted down beside Tyler, holding the boy’s chin in his hand so they both could lock their eyes, “I think you know by now why this is happening. You are right. People like you don’t simply walk out of what they do, so consider this a retirement.”

“I wouldn’t have talked.”

“I know,” Vito nodded, “This isn’t how I would have ended it either if it was up to me.”

Anger slightly subsided as sadness began overwhelming Tyler and he find it hard to breathe now “And my brother?”

“We killed him together, don’t you remember? You handed the syringe to me when I asked you to.”

“You m-monster,” the word stuttered out as Tyler tried to struggle against the loss of sensation.  

Vito closed his eyes and slowly exhaled as if in meditation. He opened his eyes a moment later, “You are right, I am a monster. That’s what everyone says. For a very long time, you are the first person that didn’t judge me by how I looked. I really liked you. So it’s a shame it has come to this. Now that we had our little talk, and we understood each other a bit, I guess we are acquaintance of some sorts. I want you to know, that I tried my best to make this process as painless as possible. So I want you to do a favor for me.”  Tyler tried to interrupt, but only found himself mumbling, so Vito pushed on. “Once you are in Hell, and you want to come back to hunt someone, find me and me alone. Leave my family out of this, okay?”

With what dignity Tyler still had, he mustered the strength and released the only answer he could, “N-no.”

With a sigh, Vito pushed himself up and walked over to the cabinet. He sifted through the tools until he retrieved a large hook. “You know why the hamstrings in your leg are named as such? I was told it was the tendon that butchers used to hang hams in their stores. I have always wanted to see the truth in that.”

<div class=""bb-center"">----------------------------------</div>

The dawn was breaking when Vito closed his clinic and strolled towards his home. The street vendors have already began setting up their shop, and the smell of the first batch of bread was filling the streets. The streets will soon be crowded with citizens from all across the city, waiting to get a first glimpse of the clock tower. However, he felt far too tired to join in. On his way, he stopped by a small grocery and purchased some ham and eggs, something he craved every time after a long night at work. The sandwiches he had earlier didn’t do him any good; after all, they were poisoned. Even with the antidote he had taken prior, he still felt a tingling sensation down his hand. Tyler was cautious, Vito admitted to that. 

When he opened his apartment door, the room was still dark with the curtains drawn. He took a peek into the bedroom and saw Bridget has yet to wake up, not surprising. He’ll cook the breakfast; it will be a nice surprise for her. He heated the pans and cracked the eggs, watching them sizzle on top of the oil. Even standing, he felt he could fall asleep if he just closed his eyes. However, before fatigue could completely creep up upon him, he heard the creak of the floor. Bridget has woken up. “Did I wake you up?” He asked, without turning around.</div>"
2694,Coal,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75950-coal,['Advanced'],2015-02-23 03:20:00,Kohlrabii,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The unveiling of the clocktower was certainly something Kent Mirza made a point to attend, considering his involvement in the early development of the project. While no mechanic or engineer, he had been commissioned to provide a report detailing the exact length of time it would take for a single solar rotation. The purpose of the report was to provide as accurate as possible the length of the modern day. He was even so gracious to provide information on Leap Years and potential changes in the future due to geomagnetic forces. In reality though, Kent's involvement with this project was limited and perhaps even unnecessary; he even doubt that his research was provided to those actually manufacturing the clocktower. Still, it have been another opportunity to network with the Mayor and connect with various Londonary citizenry, and a man in his position would never turn away.

It was supposed to be a grandiose celebration, the clocktower representing the continual growth of the relatively peaceful nation. However, the reveal of Michael Wall's lifeless body changed the celebratory tone to one of anxiety and fear. Even Kent, who was privy to the potential death of an Aristocrat, found himself taken aback by the gory sight. Standing to the side with the other engineers and mechanics who had worked on the project, Kent found himself covering his nose and mouth with a handkerchief, coughing a little as he did. Yet rather than file away, the man took in everything quietly, his fingers pressed on the spot where a tattoo had been inked into his skin. Although having such markings were against his faith, he thought an exception could be made for the better good; it was how he ultimately felt about the death of Michael Wall.

Kent Mirza, or Khorshid Nassir os-Saltaneh, was a man of both great and little prestige. He was a brilliant Astronomer from a royal lineage, however, his Persian identity made him something of a second-class citizen among those who valued blood-lines and ethnicity. Still, his bright personality and gentle demeanor typically won over anyone who had any doubts about the man from out East. It was also this kind disposition, along with his overall health, that made him appear as hardly a threat. He was considered a lamb among men, which he made a point of maintaining this persona for the time being.

After the initial chaos of that morning, the Persian man joined the other engineers in making sure the clocktower continued to run on time. After all, tragedy could not pause progress despite how certain individuals might feel. Kent worked quietly, crunching numbers and acting more as quality control more than anything else. When the scene had been perused by the proper authorities and all had essentially returned to normal, it was then that Kent decided to make his proper rounds to those of elite status to give his condolences. While typically relegated to sub-par treatment due to his heritage, Kent was still of royal blood and always made it a point to reach out in times of tragedy. Besides, he would need to make it a point to keep his enemies close to draw off any suspicion on himself.

When Kent Mirza returned home, he authored letters offering his sincerest condolences to the Aristocratic families. He wrote neatly and carefully on parchment, sealing the letters with red wax. In the letters, he offered not only his warm words but also an ear to those who wish to discuss the matter further. Once his letters were finished, he sent them off by way of a servant, leaving the task to the young man as he decided to return to the University for now.</div>"

<div class=""bb-h2""><font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Plot:</span></font></div>
Coal is set within a steampunk world that has been altered into a form that is quite unique to what people are familiar with. At some point in the past the world's magnetism began to reduce in strength and the days slowly grew longer. Sections of land around the world began to loose their grip on the surface, forcing them to lift up and float towards the skies but stay within a low lying static orbit. The clouds, that were in the past out of reach to even the birds, sank closer to where these land masses flew and created an ocean of white mist between these new islands. The result was two worlds separated by a thick layer of air but with reach that what happened to one environment could easily affect the other.

Since the world had changed so much and humans were just in the beginnings of an industrial era, steam power took off as the most advance and reliable form of energy. It had little to no effects from the changes in magnetism while utilising the now exposed natural resources that were once hidden underground. Many inventors and scientist tested their numerous ideas and designs for various forms of machinery but none had the power or drive as the Children of Umbra.

The Children of Umbra is a somewhat secret and exclusive community of people who believed that the power of electricity holds some amazing attributes, and that if harnessed correctly could produce a form of great power beyond what anyone could imagine. Unfortunately many authorities did not follow the same belief and viewed their experiments as a form of witchcraft and blasphemy. Many rumours have arisen about the Children of Umbra, however only a few members can recall their true history as many of the leaders were killed by members of the two great families.

The Aristocrats are one of these two powerful families, a house shrouded with confusion and mystery extending back several hundred years to the Medieval times. Over the generations their dynasty has become an ever growing collection of brothers and sisters who have forgotten which ancestry line is truly in charge. Even with all this uncertainty they still somehow receive orders and information from an unknown source who claims to be their true heir. One thing is for certain, it was the Wall twins who were responsible for the Children of Umbra killings but due to the nature of their crimes it could not be proven which one committed the act of murder.

The second family, rising to true power after the lands rose to the skies, are the House of Hudson. Unlike the Aristocrats that are heavily into their English heritage and consist of many different families combining into one, the Hudsons are one family that can trace their routes back to an American like source. Their current leader is Jeffery Hudson Jnr with his father, Jeffery Hudson Snr, lying in an prison for his contribution in the Children of Umbra killings, never to be released. This was part of the reason why the Hudsons migrated back to Orhurst and by doing so they bought their Wild West attitude back with them.

Many would assume that the two families would be civil towards each other considering they each had a common enemy but the truth couldn't be more different. The Aristocrats dreamed of power, status and control; a family that believed their destiny was to rule the lands before them. The House of Hudson desired greed from the natural minerals in order to fuel their expanding and ungoverned growth. As long as the Aristocrats occupied the lands, the House of Hudson's dream could not be completely for-filled.

- Which family is destined to take control of the region and what turned them into such bitter enemies?
- What role do the Children of Umbra have in all this and what are they planning?
- Why did the families kill the Children of Umbra Leaders and what secrets have been lost?

These questions and many more have been left unanswered for so long that it has created a partially tense and corrupt environment that needs to be resolved.
<div class=""bb-h2""><font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Details:</span></font></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Time Period:</span>
Coal is set within a Victorian English period so please keep in mind the history and style of architecture, clothing, and influences during this era. Since the House of Hudson is from an American background there may be occasional Wild West influence within their allocated areas.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style of RP:</span>
This is more of a realistic style of Roleplay. There are laws so keep in mind what can and cannot attract attention from the authorities. Unnecessarily killing people or committing acts of crime is generally not advised.
This Roleplay was inspired by sources like Bioshock Infinite, Sherlock Holmes, Romeo and Juliet and possibly many other things, however it is not based on any of these sources.

<span class=""bb-b"">Location and Travel:</span>
There are two main locations within this world.
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">The City of Londonary:</span> Londonary is a city built on top of a collection of islands that have risen from the earth below. The buildings cover as much of the exposed land as possible however several small islands have been left untouched to allow various people access to more natural areas. To allow movement between the various islands there are bridges, pathways and cable cars that provide most of the local transport while blimps and skyferries allow for longer distance travel.
(I don't believe planes should be a part of this RP as they can be considered a bit of an advanced technology)

It sits to the edge of a large crater with many tunnels extending their reach from the base to the village outskirts. The land that used to occupy the crater is what has become the City of Londonary. Within the centre of the town is the main hub that contains both a railway line that travels out of the city and to far away lands and a cable car station that connects the town to several islands.

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology:</span>
Typically steampunk is based on industrial equipment, clockwork designs and exposing how mechanical machines works. Computers will not be within this time period, but some electronic devices may be available.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Magic/Weapons:</span>
Because this is an alternate world some 'minor' special powers or magic may be available but the main form of magic comes from artificial sources such as Alchemy and Pseudo Science.
<span class=""bb-i"">(Note: Frankenstein's monster is an example of Pseudo Science where the Doctor uses electricity to reanimate a dead body.)</span>
Also note that weapons are generally the type of addition you would carry around in everyday life. Therefore I really don't want to see people attempting to carrying around miniguns, claymore swords or even a BFG 9000.

So they might have fencing maybe by any chance? and I am guessing the setting is rather western or will there be eastern style swordsmanship as well with katanas etc...
Also guessing these people are rich in general so might not be a stretch for them to have servants or large mansions or even owning buildings etc

So they get to have a custom trait then or no specialty


<span class=""bb-b"">FINALLY ALL THE BIG QUESTIONS</span>
1. Do you gain any traits later on, or can you have more than one trait?

2. Besides the setting and the limit of two weapons, do armor or protective clothing also count in this limit or they separate

3. Can a civilian still be a miner or engineer for that matter? 

4. Since it is steampunk I just have to ask, will there be SteamBots... always seems that steampunk generally has mechs, but the setting seems dated so not sure how it would or would not work, then again it would probably count as a weapon and not like you can take that out in public

5. Is there an age limit for your character, though I probably going to pick sixteen anyways but good to know how low or how high you can go sometimes...

6. its called coal so would it be okay to assume that there is a lot of coal mines or coal in general</div>"

It's an alternate world so country of origin isn't necessarily important.
And yes, slaves/servants are fine

I actually had a part in the original draft about the Hudson River but took it out as I thought that lil bit may be enough to convince people it was this world, which means they would be using country of origins. ie: Too much focus on origin stories and not enough on just this city.
I wanted to keep the Hudson name to show that this is a proper family where people are related with an elder/leader, much like a tribe; and the Aristocrats is like a Monarchy with an unknown leader, and Children of Umbra is like a CEO with multiple leaders with invested interest.
House of Hudson are Mechanics, not Engineers. So they can repair and build, but someone else has to design.

If that's what you're thinking than you may be on the right track. Never played AC so I can't give a full impression.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">So they get to have a custom trait then or no specialty<footer>Aura Lodestone</footer></blockquote>
The main idea I had for the Families is the usual Rock, Paper, Scissors Trio (Melee, Ranged, Mage) so you have to play as one of the families and not run around as a random with Katana, Sawn-off Shotgun or Alchemist Glove. It also means that if say someone is for example injured they can't run home and get better in the safety of their house, they have to actually find a doctor in the city.

1: No. As explained with the trio deal. You can get more skilled, but you can't become a Rambo x Jackie Chan character.

2: No. Weapon cap is for realism, but also remember realism in clothing, ie: you can't walk around in a bomb suit

3: Yes

4: No AI kind of stuff or Augmentations. I do have ideas for stuff later, but no mech warrior like stuff.

5: Whatever you feel comfortable with. I am going to bring in some older characters later.

6: Haha! Yes. It's called Coal because of so many reasons and that's one of them.</div>"

Once or twice a week is fine. I work and do other stuff and could never dream of being THAT active. Lol

As an example House of Hudson could possibly repair multiple things. A boiler, engine, hydrolics, etc. But a civilian would be a dedicated boiler maker, gunsmith, metal worker, etc. It's the difference between someone that has 7s across the board and had to become a Jack of all trades due to being several kilometers down a mine when a machine breaks, and someone that is a 10 in a workshop learning how to make condensing units for refrigeration.</div>"

I understand your view, we do have another character though through Kohl so hopefully it'll start to pick up a bit as his character is a Children of Umbra follower. I know in my post I tried to incorporate at least 2 of the other players into a bit of it so they have something to do.

He has a demonic purple flame he inherited from his father which allows him to summon his scythe and the demonic flame also helps him in many other ways.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Weaknesses}</span></span>
Riku's weakness comes from holy items and weapons. He can be killed by only a few holy items but any blessed weapons can definitely kill him, and he can go into holy areas since he is part human but he can't use his demonic flames while in that area. Riku's human side is also a weakness and since he is part demon he can be killed by non holy weapons, but it is a bit harder to do so without one.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Personality}</span></span>
Riku is friendly and nice to people who try to actually be friends with him and not run and scream ""satan spawn everyone run!"" He is also very secretive and does not socialize much for the same reason of a whole city trying to kill him.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{History}</span></span>
Riku named after his father  is the son of death his father the grim reaper was killed by priests before he was actually born his mother a princess named Alice raised him in her own kingdom. Riku for the most part looked normal as a baby but as time passed some unique features started showing up. Around his 10th birthday Riku started growing his demon horns which stopped growing only months later and they stayed the same size ever since. Later on in his life Riku returned to the demon world after his mother was murdered by member of a cult called ""the fallen angels"" he spent a long time there was watching the world go by only aging little by little at the dawn of the futuristic generation where people and other life forms lived in many different planets Riku made his return to the mortal realm. Shortly after he made three new friends which right now their names are disclosed. 

The three of them made many journeys to far off places one of them separating them all together. Riku had heard that someone was paying big money on whoever is brave enough to go through this mysterious fog. When Riku and his friends arrived they all went through the fog but on the other side Riku didn't see any of his friends. It was him all alone on a grassy field unaware he was now that in the ""clash of the realms.""</div>"

Naoto looks almost identical to that of a human, other than the fact he has giant horns coming from the top of his head. He also stands at 6'7"", making him a giant compared to most other foes. He wears thick shirts and pants, with a big robe over top with a hood to pull over his horns and face. His feet wear regular shoes, though are bigger than normal to compensate for his larger feet.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Ability}</span></span>
Naoto is part demon, cursed by an evil wizard from his homeland. His strength is very great, enough to lift ten people without problem. He can also withstand high heats, as well as engulf his hands in fire with his own magic.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Weaknesses}</span></span>

{Age} Unknown 

{Species} Human (Spirit walker)

{Gender} Male
{Appearance} <img src=""""/> 

{Power/Ability/Other} Udyr possesses the power to change ""stance"" giving him the characteristics of four different animals-

Tiger stance- Ferocious and quick. His defence becomes lack lustre but he can deal high amounts of damage quickly. Orange claws begin to form over his fists from energy.

Bear stance- Udyr hits harder but slower. Blue bear claws form around his fists from energy.

Turtle stance- Udyr's most defensive stance. He rarely attacks but his defence is very nearly unbreakable. He only uses this when he is weak or tired. Green energy from around his fists like scales.

Phoenix stance- Udyr is able to hit with fire in this stance. Red energy forms round like wings (he cannot fly)

{Weaknesses} Every stance has a weakness. Tiger stance loses defence, he becomes incredibly slow in bear and even slower in turtle stance and the phoenix stance means he loses a bit of defence too.

{Personality} Once a wild catalyst of destruction, Udyr is now a calm, and calculated being. Mostly. Sometimes his personality is based on the stance he is using but mostly he looks out for others and tracks the ones who threaten him and his friends. If you can get on his good side, he becomes a loyal protector and friendly enough. However his animalistic urges will kick in if you anger him as he becomes overly aggressive, and persistent.

{History} For years, the tribes of the north learned to avoid the wildman and his domain. Then one day, Udyr caught the scent of a fearless trespasser. Determined to chase the intruder from his territory, he attacked, only to be deflected with ease. The wildman launched himself at the stranger again and again, only to be effortlessly cast aside each time. Exhausted and defeated, Udyr felt his animosity ebb and croaked a clumsy ""who"" to the stranger. LeeSinSquare.png Lee Sin had come seeking the Spirit Walker's guidance and instead found a man who had also lost his way. The monk promised he would right Udyr's path and guided him to a monastery said to be protected by four eternal spirits of great power and wisdom. There, Udyr would find harmony. 

Lee Sin brought Udyr to a land that was a stark contrast to his birthplace. Survival was not the only law that governed the lives of Ionians or creatures of the land. For the first time, Udyr felt at peace with the spirits surrounding him and found comfort in human companionship. His time among the monks taught him to temper his instincts, while his meditations with the ancient temple spirits taught him wisdom. Through them both, Udyr learned to truly embrace his life as the next Spirit Walker. 

Udyr owed much to the Ionians. It was a debt he was never asked to honor, but one he would ultimately repay many times over. When the armies of Noxus invaded, Udyr did not stand idle as the brutal soldiers oppressed the peaceful Ionians - he had not forgotten how to bare his teeth. Udyr leapt at their armies with all the ferocity of a cornered beast and gave the invaders good reason to fear the wilderness. From the trees, his claws tore the Noxians down in scores; on the river banks, he threw them back with the falling tides, and in the fields, he consumed them with searing wildfire. Only when the Noxians fled with their tails between their legs did Udyr quell his rage.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">{Gender}</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">{Appearance}</span> 

Though of average height and weight, Sessamaru is plenty agile. Slender, yet toned, and a natural acrobat, he appears as a traditional swordsman. His hair, long and milky white, is held in a high horsetail with the front free flowing, the bangs brushing his high cheekbones whilst the sides grace his collarbone. He possesses fox ears, the same color as his thick mane, which are sensitive to sound and twitch quite often. His eyes are almond-shape and pupil-less, with only glowing green irises. Like the rest of his race, he is clean shaven by nature, incapable of growing facial hair and body hair. He has smooth, alabaster skin, giving him a marble-like appearance. In the end, he appears prominently as what one could equate to an ""angel"" with a bestial deformity (his ears).

Sessamaru wears an amalgamation of traditional clothing from Japan and China, giving him the appearance of an expert martial artist.

<span class=""bb-i"">Basic Illusions</span>
Capable of using harmless visual illusions, Sess can employ this tactic to trick his foes into thinking he has a larger repertoire of magic and abilities. He can use this to summon a ball of flame that does not burn which produces a realistic light, for example. However, the illusions he conjures are incapable of any tactile or psychological influence (which greatly differs from a fox spirit's ability to produce illusions).

<span class=""bb-i"">Enhanced Speed and Reflexes</span>
A trait he inherited from both parents, he is naturally swift as a Dearmadta from the Halcyon Tribe, as well as the offspring of a kitsune. He is faster than even the most practiced martial artist. With the aid of Aeromancy, his speed is well above superhuman and is his greatest strength (coincidentally, he is not physically stronger than a physically peaked human).

Sess's Dearmadta ancestry allows him a long life and eternal youth. Old age to a Dearmadta is similar to humans, in which the body starts to shut down after long use (age). However, Dearmadta never age physically and are prone to disease and poison much like any normal mortal. However, mortals who are familiar with the Dearmadta assume they are god-like simply because of their vast lifespans and their inability to show wrinkles.

<span class=""bb-i"">Heightened Senses</span>
Sessamaru's Kitsune ancestry gives him enhanced senses, such as sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. His instincts are also heightened, allowing him to be much more aware of his surroundings. Though strengths, they are also a weakness. High pitched whines harm him and his sense of touch makes him far more vulnerable to pain. He can hear full conversations from a fair distance and can even select a particular conversation from a room full of crowded people. He can easily differentiate people simply by smell and can tell the difference between fabrics and subtle changes in weight. His sense of taste is heightened to degrees where he can enjoy foods more and even tell the chef if he used too much salt.

<span class=""bb-i"">Resiliency (Will Power)</span>
Unlike most martial artists who are resilient due to constant training, Sessamaru derives his resilience through sheer will power. Due to his strong character, he refuses to give up even if he is in immense pain. His bones can be easily broken like a normal humans, but his will power alone keeps him from giving into pain. Despite his stubbornness, too much physical damage can surpass his pain tolerance and force him into submission via unconsciousness.

<span class=""bb-i"">Metamorphosis</span>
Sessamaru's appearance changes slightly. He becomes taller (6'4"") and becomes more slender, all of his muscles tightened around the bones. His hair takes a silvery sheen and his fox-like ears vanish as pointed humanoid ears appear in their place at either side of his skull (where they should have been all along). His eyes glow cyan rather than green and possess slitted pupils. Sage-like markings appear around his eyes, the color of the void and his lips and fingernails (now reminiscent of claws) become the same color. He possesses seven silver-white tails (something he did not have before) and his voice is a deep baritone. The metamorphosis is temporary and is stress-induced. Though a powerful buff to his magical talents and already-enhanced speed, reflexes, and senses, it has a devastating strain on the body and uses up large quantities of life energy (instead of magic energy), only accessible for two minutes (though accessible for longer, it is unwise as it can potentially destroy the body from the inside out). His illusions and plant magic become far more powerful due to the dominance of his Spirit; the illusions are capable of inflicting psychological pain and he is able to access the more dangerous plants of the spirit world with his chloromancy. He is far more fragile in this form and is thus forced to evade his enemies.

Unlike the Dearmadta, Sessamaru is a half-breed and is thus not gifted to remain in the form due to the spiritual nature of his existence. As such, the conflicting blood refuse synchronization and limits his abilities as both a Dearmadta and a Kitsune.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Magic</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Aeromancy</span> 
Wind/Air Magic, Aeromancy is a multifaceted school of magic capable of both offensive and defensive strategies. Aeromancy allows the user to manipulate wind and air currents, as well as being able to increase their own speed by decreasing air resistance and capable of flight. Wind can be focused into a concentrated blade and can pierce steel as though it were paper, and perhaps through harder substances depending on the amount of energy and concentration used. Cyclones and whirlwinds can be conjured to deflect thrown objects or energy. Ultimately, lightning can be generated and focused, though only to a single spot, by simply causing enough friction with the air currents. However, Aeromancers are unable to manipulate the lightning due to the intricacy of electromancy (meaning it's a whole different school of magic). The use for Aeromancy is versatile, though the elements are quite fickle; especially when used to summon the fickle elementals.

<span class=""bb-i"">Chloromancy</span>
Plant Magic, Chloromancy is a school of magic that uses plants as a means of misdirection, despite being used for both offensive and defensive strategies. Due to Sessamaru's unique nature as a half-spirit, he can tap into this magic far easier than the most practiced sorcerer, able to use his own magical energies to conjure otherworldly plants, becoming a metaphorical ""seed"" to spawn plants that do not exist in this plane of existence. He's able to create realistic clones of himself out of rose petals (for example), as well as use a flower of any sort to conjure a spirit-made weapon for a short amount of time.

<span class=""bb-i"">Bindings and Seals</span>
Sessamaru knows the fundamentals of magic and how it works, the intricacy involved and how to crack it. No matter the school of magic, the principles of binding and seals follow the basic rules of magic, no matter how complex. The key is to find the ""key"" component of the seal/binding. Sess is able to dispel barriers by finding the overall formula that ""binds"" the spell together. However, he himself is not skilled in creating powerful barriers, bindings, and seals, and is thus only able to make ""adequate"" suppression spells to hold off an untrained opponent/ally (untrained meaning ""someone with little to no experience in magic"").

<span class=""bb-b"">{Weaknesses}</span> 
Due to his hit-and-run nature, he is immensely weak in direct confrontation, despite having the strength equal to a human farmhand. He's also his own worst enemy due to his very nature, constantly burning away his own magical energy (though this also gave birth to his strength of being a tactician). His anti-thesis in combat is flame magic and abilities, for his winds make them stronger and his plants are simply fuel. Though a strength, his patience is a weakness, due to his need to bide for time in order to find (or make) an opening. In the end, it is ultimately his fragile nature that gives birth to his weaknesses, even his compassion, kindness, and mercy.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Personality}</span> 
Sessamaru is a kind and compassionate youth, revering all forms of life with a sense of joy. Comfortable as a wanderer, he does not let his own personal baggage weigh down his steps and he never looks back on the pain brought upon him. The swordsman tends to be polite and well-mannered, despite being an easily distracted goof. Sess, by his very nature, prefers his own personal freedom and despises oppression, whether it's directed at him or at someone else. Easy-going and lax, it is difficult to anger the young man and even more difficult to coax into a fight. He is quite clever and intelligent, which he uses to his advantage in order to avoid harming or killing those who happen to force him into a fight. He hates the idea of killing others, though he is quick to protect anyone in need of help.

Sess is notorious for his modesty and lacks pride, though he has a realistic view of his own power when up against an opponent who either underestimates or overestimates his abilities. He is unwilling to take credit for anything that he has done or in things others believed that he has done, and is quick to give credit to someone else, especially if it gets him out of an unwanted bind. However, in serious matters, he will not allow anyone to be judged or punished for crimes that they have committed, never once speaking out about it, giving his opponents a chance to atone for their sins.

Sympathetic, the half-breed is ruled by his own emotions, whether for a goofy act or for serious matters. He refrains from acting on his anger, keeping a cool-head in the heat of battle. Regardless of all his upcomings, his greatest downfall is his appetite and curiosity. He tends to eat multiple meals in a single sitting, as though his stomach was a black hole. In truth, he eats, not only out of pleasure and the scarceness of food in his travels, but because of the amount of energy he tends to expend during his ""meditations"" and ""training"" in the wee hours of the morning and the coming of twilight. His curiosity, too, tends to get him into trouble, often entering disputes and forced to resolve them, and then some. 

He tends to be an amateur philosopher as well.

Though he's like a soaring bird, he lives by his own code. A highly moral person, Sessamaru possesses a sort of honor that differentiates right from wrong. He is unwilling to partake in a two-on-one battle, unless it is only him against two other people. He refuses to let anyone be harmed on his behalf and prefers to protect others, even if it isn't his affair. Though he dislikes people getting hurt, he is willing to hold himself back as an ally or friend is willing to fight a losing battle out of respect for their pride; though once his ally falls in battle, he will intervene before a deathblow can be dealt.

They are older than time and can live very long lives whilst remaining in their youthful prime. They are one of the few races that are closely connected to the Nexus, the energies of creation (Ki, Chi, Mana, Chakra, etc). They normally appear tall and slender, with features that would make men and women weep at their beauty. They are the forerunners of the Human race and were thus revered as gods. The Dearmadta possess many talents and abilities, though they have dwindled in numbers due to their longevity and perpetual youth. Currently, there are four known tribes that remained after the demise of their immense Empire: The Halcyon Tribe (Air/Wind), the Phoenix Tribe (Fire), the Dilong Tribe (Earth), and the Ryujin Tribe (Water). Each tribe possesses the elemental powers of their ancestry and are quite strong in the use of magic and other techniques, capable of even tapping into their own life energy. Their eyes are unique and they are able to see the ribbons of energy with their unique, pupil-less eyes. It is said that once the Dearmadta enter maturity, they undergo a ""metamorphosis"" or ""transformation."" It is unknown if the Dearmadta are able to revert to their original forms.</div></div>

The handmaiden died after giving birth and the spirit fox was hunted down by the enraged monks of the Halcyon Tribe. Sessamaru was the first ""tainted"" to ever exist in the Sky Dearmadta domain and his birth was a spit in the eye of tradition. One particular monk who did not partake in the killing (the only monk who tried to dissuade his brothers from taking such rash actions) took Sess in as his own son. Sessamaru grew up under the tradition and tutelage of the elder monk, learning the ways of the sword and purpose of meditation. Sessamaru learned hand-to-hand combat but had little talent, though he excelled in kendo. During the years of training in the monastery and much learning in the ways of Aeromancy, his ""tainted"" appearance marked him in the eyes of the other monks. Sess grew up alone with only his mentor as his friend and family. However, the elder monk died of old age, only leaving Sess with a journal and his most precious treasure: a katana made by the humans. Though he mourned his master's death, Sessamaru became curious of humans, wishing to know more about them and their culture. He read from cover-to-back of the journal, learning much from his former master, of his techniques and ingenuity, of his travels and of his late life. Sess learned of his mother and his father, and though curious to know more, he was more infatuated with following in his master's footsteps: adventuring into the world of the humans!

Ironically, after the mourning period of the elder monk, the monastery chose a successor. The new head of the order was swift to banish Sessamaru from the Sky Islands, forcing the boy to swiftly garner his belongings and to never return upon the pain of death, his tainted nature too horrific to bear. Hurt by the sudden decision, Sessamaru swiftly left with the promise of traveling the world below at his back. It did not take long for him to find a means to leave the Sky Islands, for he had found the device used by his master to move from the islands to surface below. It was a magical ship that sailed the air and it took him low to the earth, out into the desert. He traveled from the desert, endured petty struggles and bandit attacks. He eventually wound up in Wanderer's Respite, where he took his first rest in a long time...</div></div></div>"

There is two lakes and they are pretty big, but each of them are on the opposite sides of the plain. In the middle is a huge rock stack that reach up high, and near by is a stone cave that doesn't go deep just enough to provide shelter for the night. Winds were soft only blowing the long grass gently not like hurricane or tornado winds which rip out grass at first chance. Surrounding the outside of the plain was a very thick fog which prohibits seeing the other side, and in most situations tricked the unsuspecting people into crossing through just to satisfy their curiosity.

-Riku-

After crossing through the fog and noticing his friends weren't with him ""Hey guys!"" he called out, but he heard no reply which angered him. Riku took note of his surroundings he saw that this fog stretched far and looked like it closed off this specific area, but why was the question. Riku started walking around and after a long while of walking he was tired and needed a place to rest. That's she he found a stone cave.

Riku thought it was a weird place to rest but it seemed like the only shaded place he could rest at, so he didn't complain well he did a little but not a whole lot. Riku only sat at the entrance of the cave not doing much but looking at two pictures he pulled out of his pocket one was of his mother and father and the other was of him and his friends. It didn't take long but Riku realized he wasn't alone in the cave and upon realizing this the only thing to come out his mouth was ""Shit...""</div>"

Maosu woke up first, laying in the grass next to her brother and sister. ""Who... what..."" she asked herself, and presumably her siblings. She grabbed her face or a short while before standing up and taking in her surroundings. She took in the soft winds across her face, and the breezy grass between her feet. She looked at the massive pile of rocks stacked up in the center of the field, reaching up high in the air. She saw the nearby cave, and thought it might be a safe place to stay. She almost walked over towards them, forgetting about her siblings for a short moment, before turning to them and crouching next to them. ""Josia, Naoto, wake up!"" she asked them, grabbing Josia first and shaking he awake.

[Josia]
""Where... why...?"" Josia asked her sister who seemed to be frantically shaking her. Josia stood up, and took in the same things as Maosu. ""Where are why? How long where we out?"" she asked. ""I don't know. I just woke before you."" Maosu responded. Josia walked a few feet away from her siblings in the direction of the cave, noticing some man entering it.... ""Hey, I just saw someone. Wake up Naoto, I'm going to go check out what that was!"" Josia said, rushing off without her siblings.

She reached the entrance of the cave, and tried looking around it. It was very dark for her, especially after having woken up in the bright fields. She blinked her eyes quickly, adjusting them to the darkness instantly. She saw a demon standing before her... but he didn't appear to be a threat. Her own brother was a half-breed himself, so she knew better than to judge instantly. She cuffed her hands to her mouth, and called out, ""Hello! Who are you? Where are we? My name's Josia!""

[Naoto]
""How..."" Naoto cried, expecting and answer as to how he had let himself fall asleep so easily. ""Don't- touch me."" Naoto said, grabbing Maosu's hands as she was about to start shaking him. Naoto stood up and straightened himself out quickly, taking in the rocks at the center. ""Where's Josia?"" he asked. ""She's in the cave."" Maosu responded. ""Let's get to some high ground... maybe that will help."" Naoto told Maosu, sprinting over towards the rocks and leaping up them. ""Maybe we can see past this fog if we climb high enough."" he said as he continued to leap. Maosu shot sound beneath herself, launching herself upwards slower than Naoto was climbing.</div>"

He's been at it for a while but briefly opened one eye to realize he wasn't quite in Valoran, or was he? Either this was strange as grey mist circled around him and the entire grassy plain. He opened his eyes fully and scanned the surroundings. Udyr immediately noticed a tall stack of stones, much like the prehistoric Yordle would have built. Udyr decided to investigate. The spirit walker stormed across the meadow with haste and quickly made his way to and up the pillar. When he reached the top he was met by another face. This was very, very strange. ""Greetings.""

Naoto tried to explain himself as he adverted eye-contact.

[Maosu/Naoto]
""Hey! What do you see up here Naoto!?"" Maosu's voice called from right below. She jumped up after pulling herself up from the last rock, and sending herself up with her powers. ""Oh, someone else is here before us."" she said. ""No, just after myself, and just before you."" Naoto corrected. ""Oh."" Maosu sighed, looking down. She then looked up at the wildman, scanning him quickly. She shot one of her hands at him like a bullet, stepping closer and putting on a smile. ""Hi! My name's Maosu.

With that in mind Riku change what he was going to say ""who am I?

The demon before me came into focus as it revealed itself. It appeared to have friends along with him, though Josia couldn't quiet tell for some reason, despite her excellent eyesight. One of them made a snappy comment, saying something about a bullet to the head.... Josia listened, instead of interrupting. She folded her arms at this point, and held a less outgoing attitude. Next, the first demon she saw explained who he was, then summoned a great weapon as if to intimidate her, which it did. ""Who said I was being friendly? I just asked who you were. Now, if you go around with such an attitude like that, someone's going to stab a cross in your -"" she couldn't help but let loose a small giggle at the end before she could finish.

""As to who I think I am, I'm no one special. I don't have a super fancy title, nor do I think I'm so 'all-mighty' powerful that I need one. I'm Josia, uber-friendly woman who seems to get shot in the head just for saying hello."" Josia rolled her eyes. ""If you plan on using that scythe on me, I'd advise against it. I'm not alone, and I'd let you know I'm not your enemy here.

This isn't a problem for Naoto, however, as due to his size and strength. Naoto grabbed it out of the air, and charged in for the demon, hoping the now bear-spirit-walker would distract him.

[Maosu/Josia]
""Come on Josia, let's go help! Summon me my weapons so we can gooooo!"" Maosu asked very quickly. Josia nodded, and raised her hands in the air, swinging them around as she conjured two modified Chakrams. They were designed to be lighter, but also bigger. They were also enchanted to return to the thrower after their use. Maosu accepted them cheerfully, and jumped in after Naoto, letting loose her weapons with the power of her sound, sending them in after the demon. <span class=""bb-i"">It's only a matter of time until his friends come out here to join him....</span> Josia sighed, before summoning several spikes in the air around her, and a short sword in her left hand, and a shield in her right. She followed after her siblings, ready to charge into battle....</div>"

Flippy said to himself. He saw a another mysterious man charging at him with a Zweihänder, so Riku jumped up dodging his attack and landing on the pole of his scythe still sticking out of the ground from his previous attack. Riku smiled and fell down and quickly after side sweeping and smashing his attacker to the ground and also withdrawing his scythe from the dirt ground.

After countering one attack another one ended up sending him far back further away from his original target the big guy who stopped him from killing that women. As he was sliding backwards trying to keep balance Riku felt something hit his back and his arm. When Riku stopped sliding he was a bit ticked off, but he didn't care for that because now another women not the same one from before but a different one came charging at him with a short sword and a shield. Riku blocked an attack from her before shoving her back and swinging his scythe at her only to be blocked by her shield. ""I'm sensing a bit of a connection between all of you, and that just means I'm gonna have kill you all."" He said with a smirk.

Riku studied his situation for a few seconds and thought of a plan of action, and he finally got his plan. He stared into the women's eyes before looking down giving here a hint that there was something below her. It was a purple circle with a symbol in it ""get ready because I'm not gonna get thrown off guard this time."" Riku told the women he was fighting. Shortly after finishing his sentence he jumped back and let the purple demon fire burst out the circle igniting the grass forming yet another circle surrounding all of his opponents eventually the fire will fully fill the circle, so Riku stood back and gazed upon his trapped opponents.</div>"

Udyr thought on his feet and switched to tiger stance, using his speed to grab the half demon and his two friends within the fire ring and brought them to the centre, of the circle. Udyr then switched to turtle stance as green energy hexagons formed around them, knitting into a dome shield. Udyr, crossed his arms together forming the shield as his hair changed into a short Mohawk like style and his beard shortened. The fire lapped up against the shield all around, straining Udyr but he was determined to keep the three safe, even if he had to sacrifice himself, but he tried his very best.

""Huh- Hey!"" Naoto yelled at his captor as he was forcefully grabbed and dragged away with his two sisters, before being surrounded by a turtle shell. ""What are you doing!? I can take the heat, let me the f-"" he yelled, reading to attack the man who was saving him. Maosu grabbed Naoto's arm as he was about to start fighting, stopping him from doing what he was going to do.

[Maosu]
<span class=""bb-i"">We dropped our weapons when he grabbed us. Hopefully Josia will have the energy to resummon them... these 'whoever they ares they think they are' are starting to get dangerous.</span> Maosu thought to herself after stopping her brother. ""Come on, calm down Naoto, we'll get through this."" she said. She looked over at Josia, who had her eyes closed, and was strangely concentrating on something....

[Josia]
Josia moved the conjured weapons everyone had dropped towards the man that had saved them, stopping them just before a strike, and turning them into a dome made of energy to help protect him with her own energy. She sent part of he own life force into the field, making it stronger, but at the cost of hurting her a partial damage dome to the new magical dome. If they all survived the attack... she might live herself... but she would be defenseless for the remainder of the battle.

[NMJ]
The two huddled together as Josia concentrated on her own, hold her hands above her head as much as she could to direction her magic. Everyone was braced for the attack... but survival was dependent on Josia's magic, and the man's capability of taking the rest of the damage if her shield broke.</div>"

""Well we can't have much of this now can we."" Riku said to himself as a leaped up into the air stopping the fire and extinguishing it while in mid air. Riku summoned his scythe and then with full force began his descent down heading towards the four being protected by a shield. His speed was incredible and it would take really quick reflexes to block his attack which would most likely shatter the shield protecting his enemies.</div>"

Udyr gathered the last of his strength he could in Turtle Stance and pushed up against Riku enough to let him roll left to an escape.

After the quick impact on the shield, Josia collapsed where she was, passing out and being forced to lay there helplessly. After the shield had shattered, their shape-shifting friend managed to swipe the scythe out of the way long enough for Naoto to pick up Josia, and jump away from their current position with Maosu. ""Maosu, catch."" Naoto yelled at her sibling, handing Josia over as Maosu protested. Maoso held Josia, but struggled from her small size and little strength.

[Naoto]
""I've got this punk who thinks he can mess with <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> sisters."" Naoto grunted. He shot his hands forward, catching them in a gulf of flame, then smashing them into each other as he was ready to take on the demon himself... whether he would win or not.... Naoto charged after the demon who had attacked his sister, raising one fist into the air to send a burning punch into the demon's side.

[Moasu]
""Naoto! What are you doing!? You can't handle him by yourself!"" Maosu screamed after her brother. She knew he was strong, but up against another demon who was armed was out of the question.

After Riku landed on the ground he whipped around facing his enemies he also notice his side was bleeding from the hit looks like the half demon's attack worked sort of.

He was once wandering through a forest, before a witch fog had consumed him. Now, he arrived upon a hilly plain with two lakes and a singular cave off in the distance. He saw a fight happening from such a far distance, but not enough to make out who the people were. Intrigued, and worried about the potential death of the combatants, he made his way urgently through the hills, his snow white hand upon the hilt of his sword. It didn't take long for him to arrive, but he stood there silently, only catching the words:

<span class=""bb-i"">""Listen kids I've had much worse than this so show me more of a fight or I might think this was just a waste of time.""</span>

It was the young man with a scythe. Before him were a monk, a male fighter, and two females, one of which was unconscious. Sighing, he sat upon the ground and continued to watch, legs crossed and both hands cupping one another in a meditative pose. <span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps it is wise not to interfere unless absolutely necessary...</span> he thought, silently watching them with a friendly smile upon his face.</div>"

""We don't need to be fighting like this! You don't have to fight us, you can just go about your business and we won't interfere."" Maosu continued her speech.

Udyr felt rested enough to fight again but he would still be on the defensive. The enemy demon did not look to pleased by the wish for them all to stop fighting. This was not going to happen anytime soon. Udyr ran and dashed in front of the women and her fallen brother, arms to his side, as if barring the way. ""It's too late for that!"" Udyr said to Maosu. ""Now stay behind me!"" Udyr commanded, not to be leader but for their own sake. Udyr faced his opponent and adopted a fighting stance (below) ""Just me and you now!"" Udyr said, asking for a fair one on one fight.

Though attempting to be honorable, Sess knew quite well that the half-demon had an edge. Even Maosu's voice held some level of reason. Slowly, but surely, Sessamaru rose to his feet and took a simple step forward. In a single stride, he appeared between Udyr and Riku as if by magic; and indeed, it was magic that allowed him to move swiftly between the two. ""Enough,"" Sessamaru spoke aloud, his melodic voice a casual tenor. ""There's no need for bloodshed.""

After a small delay from his ""instantaneous movement,"" a strong gust of wind fell in between the three, trying to fill the vacuum that allowed the swordsman to move so swiftly. His long white hair danced like white flames, his emerald eyes shining brightly. ""Perhaps we should think of a way to escape this place?"" He asked, hopefully, though he knew deep down that reason would no longer apply to the two warriors.</div>"

When Sessamaru was done speaking Riku leaped up into the air so quickly it looked like he'd vanished from where he was standing. He positioned him self right above Udyr and began a great air decent. Riku once again came down at a quick speed just like before but with out his scythe, but it would still take quick timing to block this attack and without such a big thing to block it might be harder to block this time around.</div>"

When Udyr countered, throwing the half-demon, Sessamaru saw his opening and took it. With a sweep of his hand, a gust of wind slowly began to rise around the monk, spinning rapidly into a whirlwind.

After the new monk stepped in, and targeted both the demon and the Monk, Naoto frowned. Naoto released himself from his sister's grasp, as she had loosened up when Naoto calmed. Naoto sent himself towards Sessamaru, seeing him as an enemy after having attacked the beast-man who had risked his own life to save his sisters. ""Let go of him you fiend!""

Landing and sliding backwards, the swordsman returned to his iaijutsu stance, this time causing a whirlwind to surround him in a protective barrier. ""Calm yourself!""

Which was very foolish because he got beat in one hit.

Riku came to the fact that to continue this battle he would need to go through Sessamaru. ""You!"" Riku shouted at Sessamaru ""you are making me break my gentlemens word by only fighting that monk, but now I see what I must do."" Riku got closer to Sessamaru with every word.

This is where things get interesting the fog acts sort of a environment changer and when you pass through it the field changes to someplace new. One moment you can be fighting on a grassy plain and then the next on an island in the middle an ocean, or maybe a futuristic city full of all sorts of things.

The rules are:
1. No god mode.
2. No god like powers I mean come on every power has a weakness like every person.
3. I am in charge of changing the battlefield unless you want to pm me and propose one that ties to your post.
4. Once you go through the fog there is no going back. It is completely random and characters don't know where there going to end up on the other side.
5. Have fun! Arena is somewhere to have fun and you can cut loose every now and then (well at least for me)

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">2/18/15 In the roleplay the rock spire has been destroyed and there is currently a fight raging on with Udyr, Naoto, Maosu, and Josiah against Riku. On the thread I've deleted the original first update and re-explain it here. I came up with a story for this Rp and it let's characters form teams or go lone wolf and so far seems like a team has already been formed. Also sector change may happen soon so if anyone wants to give me ideas for the next location for the characters to fight in you can PM me or just post it in OOC.</div></div>
Any other questions or concerns you can feel free to ask keep in mind this is my first thread so if you have any suggestions feel free to give them to me and I might add them to thread/roleplay.

Here's my character use it as an example.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Riku Son of Death"" type=""button"">Riku Son of Death [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Name}</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Riku.</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Age}</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">16.</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Species}</span></span>
He is mostly demon but has a mortal mother so he is also human.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Gender}</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Male.</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Appearance}</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">You can use a picture and give a extra details you want to add, or just give a description I'm fine with either of them.</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Power/Ability/Other}</span></span>
He has a demonic purple flame he inherited from his father which allows him to summon his scythe and the demonic flame also helps him in many other ways.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Weaknesses}</span></span>
Riku's weakness comes from holy items and weapons. He can be killed by only a few holy items but any blessed weapons can definitely kill him, and he can go into holy areas since he is part human but he can't use his demonic flames while in that area. Riku's human side is also a weakness and since he is part demon he can be killed by non holy weapons, but it is a bit harder to do so without one.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{Personality}</span></span>
Riku is friendly and nice to people who try to actually be friends with him and not run and scream ""satan spawn everyone run!"" He is also very secretive and does not socialize much for the same reason of a whole city trying to kill him.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">{History}</span></span>
Riku named after his father  is the son of death his father the grim reaper was killed by priests before he was actually born his mother a princess named Alice raised him in her own kingdom. Riku for the most part looked normal as a baby but as time passed some unique features started showing up. Around his 10th birthday Riku started growing his demon horns which stopped growing only months later and they stayed the same size ever since. Later on in his life Riku returned to the demon world after his mother was murdered by member of a cult called ""the fallen angels"" he spent a long time there was watching the world go by only aging little by little at the dawn of the futuristic generation where people and other life forms lived in many different planets Riku made his return to the mortal realm. Shortly after he made three new friends which right now their names are disclosed. 

The three of them made many journeys to far off places one of them separating them all together. Riku had heard that someone was paying big money on whoever is brave enough to go through this mysterious fog. When Riku and his friends arrived they all went through the fog but on the other side Riku didn't see any of his friends. It was him all alone on a grassy field unaware he was now that in the ""clash of the realms.""</div></div></div>"

{Age} Unknown 

{Species} Human (Spirit walker)

{Gender} Male
{Appearance} <img src=""""/> 

{Power/Ability/Other} Udyr possesses the power to change ""stance"" giving him the characteristics of four different animals-

Tiger stance- Ferocious and quick. His defence becomes lack lustre but he can deal high amounts of damage quickly. Orange claws begin to form over his fists from energy.

Bear stance- Udyr hits harder but slower. Blue bear claws form around his fists from energy.

Turtle stance- Udyr's most defensive stance. He rarely attacks but his defence is very nearly unbreakable. He only uses this when he is weak or tired. Green energy from around his fists like scales.

Phoenix stance- Udyr is able to hit with fire in this stance. Red energy forms round like wings (he cannot fly)

{Weaknesses} Every stance has a weakness. Tiger stance loses defence, he becomes incredibly slow in bear and even slower in turtle stance and the phoenix stance means he loses a bit of defence too.

{Personality} Once a wild catalyst of destruction, Udyr is now a calm, and calculated being. Mostly. Sometimes his personality is based on the stance he is using but mostly he looks out for others and tracks the ones who threaten him and his friends. If you can get on his good side, he becomes a loyal protector and friendly enough. However his animalistic urges will kick in if you anger him as he becomes overly aggressive, and persistent.

{History} For years, the tribes of the north learned to avoid the wildman and his domain. Then one day, Udyr caught the scent of a fearless trespasser. Determined to chase the intruder from his territory, he attacked, only to be deflected with ease. The wildman launched himself at the stranger again and again, only to be effortlessly cast aside each time. Exhausted and defeated, Udyr felt his animosity ebb and croaked a clumsy ""who"" to the stranger. LeeSinSquare.png Lee Sin had come seeking the Spirit Walker's guidance and instead found a man who had also lost his way. The monk promised he would right Udyr's path and guided him to a monastery said to be protected by four eternal spirits of great power and wisdom. There, Udyr would find harmony. 

Lee Sin brought Udyr to a land that was a stark contrast to his birthplace. Survival was not the only law that governed the lives of Ionians or creatures of the land. For the first time, Udyr felt at peace with the spirits surrounding him and found comfort in human companionship. His time among the monks taught him to temper his instincts, while his meditations with the ancient temple spirits taught him wisdom. Through them both, Udyr learned to truly embrace his life as the next Spirit Walker. 

Udyr owed much to the Ionians. It was a debt he was never asked to honor, but one he would ultimately repay many times over. When the armies of Noxus invaded, Udyr did not stand idle as the brutal soldiers oppressed the peaceful Ionians - he had not forgotten how to bare his teeth. Udyr leapt at their armies with all the ferocity of a cornered beast and gave the invaders good reason to fear the wilderness. From the trees, his claws tore the Noxians down in scores; on the river banks, he threw them back with the falling tides, and in the fields, he consumed them with searing wildfire. Only when the Noxians fled with their tails between their legs did Udyr quell his rage.</div>"

O'Siris Malmordia

<span class=""bb-b"">{Age}</span>
254, Ageless

<span class=""bb-b"">{Species}</span>
Unseelie Fairy, aka. Moon Fairy, trickster, sprite, or hobgob

<span class=""bb-b"">{Gender}</span>
Male

<span class=""bb-b"">{Appearance}</span>
His appearance moves with his environment. Hair, skin, nails, and clothing change whether he's surrounded by plants, volcano, tundra, cityscape, and sky. Large beetle horns with matching wings also change at his will, unaffected by most environmental changes.

(some pic off of google, see the link)

<span class=""bb-b"">{Power/Ability/Other}</span>
As a Fairy, he resembles many aspects of nature, as such, he is able to mimic them too. His horns and wings change at will, his elemental abilities change with his environments.

<span class=""bb-b"">List of powers associated with different environments:</span>
Grass and Wood/Plants,
Fire and Lava/Volcano
Ice/Tundra
Water/Ocean(rain, lake, etc.)
Lightning/Storms (wet or dry) and Cities where electricity is abundant
Wind/High wind or storms
Stone and Crystal/Desert, Cityscape, Underground
Metal/Cityscape,
 - Metal is a difficult element to master unless he's primarily surrounded by it

<span class=""bb-b"">{Weaknesses}</span>
 His weakness is cityscape environments as they are the hardest for him to duplicate. He draws his energy from everything around him. Cities, rubber, metal, even magazine paper is more difficult to replicate as an effective attack. Though not completely vulnerable, in a cityscape, he has little taste for it naturally.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Personality}</span>
He's an awful person. Horrible and a trickster. He shows little mercy but does not let the rage get the better of him. He is patient as water and deadly as lava, quiet in his wake. O'Siris, or <span class=""bb-i"">Siris</span> for short, is half insane with the amount of energy constantly coursing through him. He is bipolar and is often bouncing between different shades of manic and depressed. A shift in sunlight can cause his emotions to swing. In rare cases, past, present and future will meld in one his mind.

<span class=""bb-b"">{History}</span> 
O'Siris is an Unseelie fairy. One of the race's two-dozen princes, in fact. O'Siris (Siris for short) and his brothers each represent facets of nature in their wildest forms. O'Siris, being the oldest, he is the root of all elements and personalities that are typically associated to them. This, in turn, makes him an absolute lunatic. He was once the controller of the vast Unseelie army stretching far across the plains, mountains, and seas of the Fairy/Faerie realms. One-hundred years after the start of his reign over Unseelie forces, he disappeared into the darkness and was never seen again.

He slums the darkest corners of the world, terrorizing mortals wherever he goes. He offers mortals wishes to change their lives. Promises of power, fortune, or even happiness. Each wish comes with a hefty price, often trapping the mortal in a personal hell or taking their lives to torture ad infinitum. The sound of his heavy wingbeats often puts the fear of God into mortals and Fairies alike, even if they have no knowledge of the soon-to-be Fairy King.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span> is a Half-Demon Half-Human. He used to be full Human. He has a lot of strength, but is usually summoned a giant sword by Josia to use.
<span class=""bb-b"">Josia</span> is full Human. She uses her powers of sight to summon illusions, and conjure weaponry. Conjures can be the same as an illusion, but require more strength. For example, summoning an illusion of herself is much easier than conjure a familiar. She could easily summon several illusions, but only conjure one pet, for the same amount of energy.
<span class=""bb-b"">Maosu</span> is full Human. She uses her powers of sound to enhance her own human abilities. She can break her fall with sound, send objects flying with more force, and even disarm loose-stanced enemies with her control of sound. She can also move sound away from her, tricking people into thinking she is elsewhere, or making it sound like an army is coming, ETC.</div>"

He journeyed and met another mage a green mana user known as Rekap. They dueled using their mana and eventually Nalyd won the day. After this he traveled to many plains and made many allies. Eventually at a great convergence of planeswalkers there was a great disturbance. A black mana user transcended them all and this mask wearing faceless monstrosity challenged all at once. The being was mightier than all his pitch black nails seeming to tear the very fabric of reality as h felled Nalyd's companions left and right. The battle lasted many hours, but eventually only three remained Haze a red and green mana user and Nalyd facing this being alone. They banded together feeding off one anothers energies as Haze made a play and halted the being's forces. Nalyd seizing the opportunity summoned his leaders army and in a brilliant tactical maneuver led the charge and finished the being saving the plane of Droxo.</div>"
2853,ScorpionLantern vs TheHangedMan ~ T-1 Characters: Jalahard vs Reina Wisdom (Commentary is Welcomed~!),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75958-scorpionlantern-vs-thehangedman-t-1-characters-jalahard-vs-reina-wisdom,['Arena'],2015-01-29 16:49:00,ScorpionLantern,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jalahard looked over his kingdom. It was as prosperous as always. In the days from when he was just a boy, there was always this darkness that settled around the city, than made people unable to come out due to fear. Only later did he discover that this was a result of the Demon Lord Vriskaya's rebirth occurring right inside the palace of the Old King. 

He chuckled. Back then, he would never have imagined becoming one of the seven (eight to some, including him) heroes that overthrew the previous king, combated the Demon Lord after his revival, and eventually ushered in a new era of prosperity for the Shirandi Kingdom. Half of his companions - the heroes - died and the ones that remained were all wanderers by nature; they refused to become king. So much to his surprise, the young bakers apprentice, him, at just seventeen years old, was crowned as the new king. 

Four years have passed since then, and his power has grown considerably since, but still not on the level of Dutch, the deceased leader of the Heroes of the Lamp. Perhaps this was due to the fact that there was no longer anyone that could prove a challenge to him? He was once told that in order to get stronger, one must have a purpose and a rival. His purpose was to defend his kingdom, but there was none that could prove a worthy rival.

Jalahard sighed, and beautiful dark haired woman approached him. ""Why so glum, my king?"" 

His wife, Shirone, a sorceress that he had rescued during the dark times. The sparks of love flew between them but both being stubborn, it took awhile for either to confess, and even longer for a proposal to happen - but that is a story for another time. 

""I want to get stronger, but there is none in my Kingdom to give me that push I need . . .""

Shirone, who was never one to understand his love for battle, just nodded in acceptance. ""Well, then perhaps you have to seek outside the kingdom?""

""That is an idea . . . but I cannot leave just yet. There is still much to do, and I am not so competent as to be able to solve the kingdoms problems from far away. No, if there is to be a worthy challenger, he is to come to me.""</div>"

She was told that the landscape of Shirandi Kingdom had changed considerably since the battle with the Demon King, and that the old maps were obsolete. She was told to wait a week until the new, more accurate maps arrived, before setting off for the capital, but she insisited on journying ahead anyway.

<span class=""bb-i"">I mean, how much could a county's landscape change anyway?</span>

Of course, like with most of her decisions when it comes to travelling, that came to bite her in the rear. She should have known that battles with Demons Kings would cause <span class=""bb-i"">whole mountains to disappear off the maps and for entire roads to just vanish!</span>

""Argh! That does it, I'm teleporting straight there!"" she shouted in frustration. No matter how much the landscape changed, after all, the capital was still in the capital. As long as she had a general sense of where it was, Spatial-Transfer Magic was possible. She wanted to avoid using magic if possible, since she was trying to be incognito, but at this rate, she would never get there in time to fit her plans . . .

Calling upon her magic, Reina's vision blurred for a second, before her surroundings changed . . .

<span class=""bb-i"">Hm? Why is it so dark . . . and soft?</span>

Landing on top of the Kings wife would feel like that yes.

""Huh?""</div>"

Years of combat instincts screamed at him 'this woman is dangerous!' and he reacted accordingly.

The curved sword at his side disappeared in a flash and shot its way towards Reina's head. The blow was fast enough that a crack could be heard as the sound barrier was destroyed, and various objects flew off in disarray.

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader</span>: Kane Weltford

<span class=""bb-b"">Territory</span>:
<img src=""http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk12/Taunter/Bismark_1.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Technology</span>: The technology held by the people of Bismarck is set over a wide-range. Left behind by the decline of civilization across the wider world the people left in the Dakotas were left with a considerable supplies of corn or soy which is routinely refined for its bio fuel. This goes into the limited lighting and heating needs of Bismarck. However with the loss of the greater power and technology grid of North America so did the bulk of the Dakota's power source and the closing of the region's coal power plants, thus reinforcing the daily demand of refined bio fuels to light lamps and generate heat.

Beyond basic heating and lighting there is still a demand in fuel for motor engines, although in certain decline due in part to end of spare part production. Although the people of Bismarck can certainly maintain trucks and other vehicles their life-time is in question with many people recognizing that in time even their ability to run them will soon end. Coupled with a generally limited fuel supply automotive travel is far from the ideal mode of casual travel and limited only to being the core of caravans.

For general travel the people of Bismarck have turned full scale into modes dominated by the horse. Hundreds of years since the taming of the west the iconic Conestoga wagon has returned to the Badlands and there's been a witnessed revival in horse riding. This means being how many within the Bismarck territories can keep a lead over the dead.

Many technological assets considered unimportant to survival have been forgotten over fifty years of survival in the Dakota north. Skill sets such as shooting, maintenance of or crafting of firearms, and numerous arts to survive the wilderness were reintroduced to the survivors. Now, many people can not claim to read, or if they can their literary skills are lacking. However what they make up for in that is a considerable field in the skills passed down from father to sun throughout the new tribes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Society</span>: Society under the Bismarck territories is largely defined by renewed nomadism after many of the smaller towns fell to the living dead. Though many these settlements have been largely emptied of their shambling inhabitants – or they themselves left – what remained was far too ruined for the already meager and thin population of the Dakotas to return to. For those that remained traveling the country-side was a safer alternative to setting down roots anywhere.

Because of the presumption of nomadism many former Dakotans have little to no personal possessions. Anything they have being owned by the band – The Ranch – for the benefit of the whole. The sciences and education have been reduced to the necessities so young men and women can pull their part sooner and education is carried out on a father-son relationship or as a relationship with the youth with the entire group, all of which assisting their maturation and capabilities.

The only place that resembles in any effort the old world is the city of Bismarck, the former capital of North Dakota. Cleaned of the walking dead by former Army colonel Kane Weltford, Bismarck stands as the effective – if informal – capital of the Dakotas. Bismarck's influence coming from how preserved it's been held as its central location as a meeting point between all the bands as they seek trade across the territories. Bismarck is also home to the largest refineries of bio-diesel, although smaller stations remain scattered across the Dakotas.

Trade in the former Dakotas is devoid of money, many goods being traded on equal weight of necessity or as gift economy of sorts. Between the peoples fuel and  the remaining spare parts can be bartered out for live-stock, skins, scrap, or metals pulled from the wilds and refined in the field.

A curious sight in Bismarck is the Avenue of Trophies on the lawn of the old state capitals, here from across the territories the heads of the slain dead are collected and displayed for all to see. With the written names of the collectors, the many thousands of hunters across the Dakotas travel to Bismarck to set out for display their fight against the risen dead in exchange for prestige and fame among the whole of the “nation”. The Avenue's central location proves an incredibly strategic with nearly every citizen of the territories having seen it at least once in their life.

The interest in head-hunting is a growing militant sport carried out by an entire caste of warrior named the Lazarenes. Taking inspiration from the Bible on the hopes mankind may be revived from death as was Lazarus with the Jesus the Lazarenes seek to eliminate the threat of the dead in a concentrated effort. The Lazarenes practice their art in a professional manner, almost like knights and take on their own apprentices as a sort of Squire. Over many years a Lazarene matures his survival capabilities and martial prowess and as such they are considered the best fighting force in the Dakotas; however the informal code of the Lazarenes greatly discourages the killing of a living human, though exceptions remain; they exist for their defense.

The Lazarene organization has come to heavily influence many decisions in Bismarck. Of considerable importance being the care of the body postmortem. Though it started as controversial and inspired considerably ire and offense from traditionally set Christian groups the Lazarenes inspired the postmortem decapitation of the body of any dead, or the wide-spread cremation of a corpse to prevent the rise of new dead. For anything that dies it must be disassembled or reduced to dust. By this reaching informal law it's become something akin to a criminal act to not dispose of any body in this matter, and may be added onto sentences.

Another group influenced by the Lazarene and in turned they're influenced by are the survivor Native American populations of the American North. Following the return of their buried dead as monsters the Lakota-Sioux, Dakota, and Lakota peoples came to the Lazarene's terms to adapt their burial practices inspiring a rise of urn burials or heavier restraints on the bodies during more traditional ceremonies. Or if not that, finally and ultimately cremating the bodies of the dead.

The Indian tribes fared decently in the new world, relative to the rest. The confines of the old reservations were breached as they fled ahead of the angry dead and they integrated into the fabric of the Bismarck territories, although to a extent they are effectively independent. Although the central political and economic position of the city of Bismarck puts them still in the firm influence of the city itself and thus as much a part of the “nation” as they were in America prior.

The native tribes were however a reinforcing demographic to the revival of the ancient customs that had for the most part decayed. Thus, the relationships between them and the white-man is of mutual survival, even if still there is racial animosity.

Finally, the territories of Bismarck is defined less by official decree and only by what they can manage in keeping clean. There is little official boundary or a point where a man may say for certain whether they have passed into or out of Bismarck. Often it is said that when one travels and finds five of the living dead or signs there-of, they have left Bismarck.

<span class=""bb-b"">Industry</span>: The industrial capability of Bismarck is largely self-sustaining with hardly anything that may be considered an export. Held as being isolated from any other meaningful community no part of the economy has developed out to be exported and instead is focused inwards. There is some production of raw materials in the form of fuel and food product, or scraps pulled from the ruins inside and outside of Bismarck territory.

<span class=""bb-b"">Location:</span> South Carolina

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>  As the world crumbled in the face of the Happening, and the consequential war of attrition between the alien fungi and humanity, the Matina found itself sitting dead in international waters. A Ukrainian cargo ship, having exchanged its metal containers for human bodies, the Matina survived daily threats from various navies as it carefully navigated from one zone of military operations to another. 

Unable to return to Europe, from fear of being blown out the water, and unable to press on towards his original destination: America, for the same reason, Captain Yevgen Kedzierski had no choice but to order the Matina to stay as far away from any landmass as possible. 

Six years of running, raiding and dying later, and the Matina was finally able to shrug off the near-constant threat of extermination from mankind. Despite some fungal outbreaks on board, owing to a few incidents whilst raiding the African coasts, the crew and their human charges were largely intact. Indeed, they had even gained bodies since that fateful day they fled Europe. 

Anchoring off the coast of South Carolina, Captain Yevgen and his peers were able to shut down the ship’s engines permanently – although truth be told, they were going that way anyways – and sit in for a lengthy wait. Being so close to the American mainland enabled Yevgen and his men to launch raids and foraging missions, as well as to establish small footholds on strips of land. 

Forty years later, and the rusty hulk of the Matina is an eyesore in the background of a prosperous city. The ruins of Charlestown have been reoccupied, and though the Ukrainian ship’s crew control little else outside the city’s bounds, they have succeeded in creating a tight security net around the territory they hold. 

As it stands, the New Kievans, as they are known, are winding down a six-month campaign in rid the outskirts of Charlestown of the fungi and its carriers. Though beyond the shouts, the rattling of assault rifles and the hacking of axes, life has begun anew. Buildings are being restored, with what materials can be found; shops are reopening, albeit in the form of bakeries and ration sheds. 

New Kiev could become a great nation, if it can continue its trend of prosperity. However, with few agricultural holdings, and a large presence of infected right on its door step, it may well be snuffed out before things can come to fruition.

<span class=""bb-b"">Culture:</span> New Kiev can be considered a civilised nation, with many old world morals and ideals. There are schools, hospitals, churches, police and fire stations, although all of these are very basic facilities. 

Generally speaking, children between the age of 4 and 10 attend school, to receive a basic education. Afterwards, they are expected to find a use for themselves, whether it’s in the military or domestic sectors. 

Drinking and smoking are seen as acceptable past times, and general physical health is disregarded in favour of: “enjoying the moment, before you fall down and attack someone”. This generally gives the people of New Kiev a rather cheerful persona, and they can be found on most evenings to be celebrating, one way or the other. 

The language of the New Kievans is Ukrainian, although English prevails as the secondary language. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span> New Kiev is not a democracy, but more of a monarchy – although people will generally deny this. Currently, President Vitali Kedzierski, the now deceased Captain Yevgen Kedzierski’s only son, holds all the keys to power and is beyond question. He did not receive his position, or even try to claim it; when Yevgen died of lung cancer three years ago, people just assumed Vitali would take the helm. And that’s what he did.

Reporting to Vitali are the Ministers of Security, and the Ministers of Domestic Affairs. There are no other government departments. 

Presient Kedzierski is known as a rather rational, compassionate man. He is loved universally by his people, and whatever shady dealings he may have going on, are well hidden from public view. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span> New Kiev deals primarily in tobacco, fish and automobile parts. The old car factories of Charlestown were largely intact when the Matina arrived, and though the New Kievans are still toiling away in getting these facilities up and running again, the large stock piles of items left behind after the Happening have given them a trading edge in this brave new world. 

If they can acquire the right resources, and power up the machinery at the various plants, they may be able to provide themselves and others with a semi-renewable supply of pistons, arches, coils, and all the other fanfare.

<span class=""bb-b"">Military:</span> New Kiev’s military operates two separate, infantry based branches. These are the Militsiya, and the Kiev Battalion (K.B).

The Milisiya’s role is twofold. They are both armed police, and traditional soldiers. It is New Kiev’s only force dedicated to dealing with humans, and is well equipped with American firearms, and well stocked. However, it is a strictly controlled force, and is small – only 300 strong. Typically, they deal with outsiders, or internal threats. Occasionally they are also called in to help the K.B deal with fungi threats. They are well trained, and paid highly for their service, and answer directly to the President. 

The Kiev Battalion, sometimes known as the Butcher Corps due to its high mortality rate, is the conscripted wing of New Kiev’s armed forces. Armed with machetes, spears, shields and some firearms, it is they who are charged with the grim task of clearing out areas of fungi carriers. 

Their work is bloody, but they are well cared for. After six months service, a citizen is allowed a 12 month immunity from the Battalion's drafting papers. During the time they are with the battalion, they are fed and sheltered. After six consecutive tours, a citizen is then excluded from further conscription. 

Serving in the Battalion is seen as an honourable act, and there are few deserters despite the bleak work. Typically, there are just under six hundred men and women serving in the K.B at any one time during a campaign, although in times of serious distress, this number will double to include all of New Kiev’s eligible population. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Population:</span> 2,643. 55% Ukrainian, 25% North American, 10% Moroccan, 10% Cuban.

<span class=""bb-b"">Law and Order:</span> New Kiev's law is based along traditional lines, but with capital punishment in place. Generally heinous crimes, such as rape and murder, are punishable by death. Lesser crimes, such as theft and causing damage to property or injury to people, are punishable by serving terms in the K.B. 

Trials are short affairs, consisting of the prosecution, a judge, and the accused. The presiding judge ultimately decides the fate of the accused.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader's/Government Name:</span> Andrea Habicht

The government structure of the Hegemony, despite the democratic aspects, resembles a dictatorship more than anything else. A chancellor leads the state , wielding nigh-absolute authority in all matters. His/her orders can only be contradicted should all of the mayors reject her decision, a rare occurrence. With such power the Chancellor is able to quickly respond to any incidents that would threaten the Hegemony, not having to deal with any objections that could endanger the safety of the inhabitants. The Chancellorship is awarded by a group of elders, representing the mayor and community representative of each township. The mayor of each town is elected in a similar manner. Despite these absolutist measures democratic elements are still present in society, including the right to petition, protest, and oust a leader if they are mismanaging the town/Hegemony.

<a href=""http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f307/SirVesuvius/1024px-BlankMap-USA-states-Canada-provinces_HI_closersvg_zps53a6a34c.png"">Territory of the Hegemony</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Society</span>
Society took a harsh turn ever since the outbreak began, more so in some places than others. One of the areas to take extreme measures was the area which would eventually become the Hegemony. One may become a citizen by being born in Hegemony territory or by being admitted by a senior official's recommendation. All others must first pass a two week's probationary period before taking a 'test'. This test is more a display of will and loyalty, required by all to ensure that the Hegemony does not fall. The test taker is given an unloaded gun but this fact is not shared. They are then forced to 'shoot' someone. If the person cannot bring themselves to do it then they are thrown out of the territory. If they pass then they are immediately accepted as a citizen. A secondary test may be taken if the first one is failed, albeit a much more dangerous one. A person is sent out into the wild and must return by the end of the fifth day of leaving. On one condition. The applicant must bring back the heads of at least three zombies. If the applicant is part of a family they are sent out alone or with any children over the age of 16. If this task is completed then the applicant is also immediately accepted. Any form of dangerous behavior is dealt with harshly, flogging being the most basic punishment, though more serious crimes will result in death or expulsion without chance of return.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Technology</span>
The Hegemony boasts an impressive array of technology and industrial capabilities despite the degraded state of the world following the outbreak. Large amounts of farming equipment can be found within or just outside the border, remnants of the old vineyards that produced massive quantities of wine pre-outbreak. This impressive array allows the inhabitants of the Hegemony to support themselves with farming to an extent despite the harsh nature of the area in which they live. The only problem presented by this is that the best farmland lies outside of the Hegemony's mountainous territory. In addition to farming, the Hegemony is only a short distance away from the Pacific Ocean and one of the largest ports on the West Coast. As such there are several fishing ships that can be commandeered by those of the Hegemony, although this is not done frequently as it involves risks of all kinds, albeit less than that of farming. Most often, fishing is done in the streams that run through the state of Washington.

Military technology, while not in abundance, are not a rare sight either. Over decades the nearby airfields and bases have been strippped of all valuable material, providing a vast supply of explosives, ammunition, spare parts, vehicles, and other specialized equipment. The planes were left in the airfield in hopes that they could one day be used to venture further than they ever have before. A firearm is kept in every house, meant to be used as a deterrent against the living . Against the dead, older style weaponry is used, primarily maces and short swords. Each village maintains a defense force ready to react but the bulk of the killing is done by roaming teams of hunters patrolling the borders. When encountering a group of zombies they will utilize their weapons to dispatch them quietly. If detected they form a shield wall using procured riot shields and finishing off the zombies. Each kill team also has two men that carry a firearm.

<span class=""bb-b"">Population:</span> 8,523

<span class=""bb-b"">Industries</span>
The Hegemony stands as one of the main producers of raw materials out of the surviving societies. Mining quarries are scattered throughout the mountains, allowing the Hegemony access to metals and stone with which to build. In addition, manufacturing plants for electronics. vehicles, and lumber are situated near the Hegemony, allowing them to produce a variety of rarer items if needed. Due to an abundance of damns in the area, the Hegemony has been able to repair some and restore power to these plants. However, as the plants lie outside the border, it presents a danger to all those involved. Despite this availability, they do not have the means to manufacture weapons, clothing, or medical equipment very well, relying on others or rare scavenging ventures to bring back these supplies. Food can also be a problem for them as the mountainous terrain limits the crop-growing ability of many.</div>"

Nation Sheet

    <span class=""bb-b"">Great Lakes Confederation</span>

    The government is called, unimaginatively, The Confederacy. One member from each canton represents their district, and a single member is elected Primus inter Pares, or First among Equals, after someone pulled the term from an old book. The First, as they are often called, is 'in charge' insomuch as the others respect and admire whoever it is, but a two-thirds majority is required for a decision to be passed. It works surprisingly well, though that may be because there are only 15 cantons so far.  

   

    Being a farming confederation at the end of the day, the technological focus is on tools and equipment that can make their jobs easier. Old world farming equipment is carefully hoarded and loaned out to the larger communities while carefully monitored animal power has it's place in the off season and in smaller, out of the way communities.
    Wool and leather are common clothing materials, with cotton and other similar materials being traded for(if applicable).
     A large stock of old-world weapons, mainly rifles and shotguns are distributed throughout the towns and villages for the local militia, though low stocks of ammunition leave their use to designated sharpshooters. There is also squads of crossbows or archers, depending on the community in question, and like the rifles, built with human opponents rather than undead ones in mind. In addition to these ranged weapons, each community has a stock of close combat weapons, used as a last resort or against more human opponents.

    Like Switzerland in the medieval period, the Great Lakes Confederation is more of an alliance of towns than a single unified state. There is a single capital, and some laws that govern every canton, but beyond ensuring that citizens have equal rights, regulating the livestock farms and game resources, and maintaining the militia the cantons are free to do as they please.
    One may become a citizen of the Great Lakes Confederation either by simply being born in a territory claimed by the Confederation, by claiming descent from other citizens within a maximum of two generations, or by being sponsored by an existing citizen and spending two years in probation. By being a citizen, the individual must make themselves available for militia training unless physically unable to, report any violation of the livestock laws or sightings of the undead, and have one part in ten of anything they produce taken as a tax. In exchange they receive the protection of the Confederation, whether it is from the undead, looters, other communities or even abuse from within the Confederation itself.

    The primary resources and industries of The Confederation is farming, livestock and salvaging dead cities. The last is quite lucrative, as there are four large cities within their territory, London, Toronto, Montreal and Hamilton, with Detroit, Ottawa and Quebec City all within travel distance. Also of importance is the St. Lawrence River itself, giving the Confederation access to the Atlantic, should there be any opportunities of trade with other states along the seaboard.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">The Battle for Charleston</div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Are you ready men?"" roared Kiev Battalion First Marshal Alkov, extending a finger towards the green, spore infested fog enveloping the city's westerly districts. 

His enthusiasm was met by the cheers of hundreds, all crashing their weapons together, and singing the adrenaline filled melody of war. 

""I asked you, are you ready?"" Alkov repeated, raising himself up onto an overturned and rust covered hulk of a former car. ""Are you ready to die for people and country, for the greater good of all what we hold dear?"" 

His more grimly termed words did little to diminish the Battalion's high spirits. Again they cheered, jumping up and down on the spot, cracking knuckles and limbering up, as if they were about to compete in some sporting event. 

""Then let's get to it!"" Alkov yelled, raising a brass trumpet to his lips and playing a soured, high pitched tune.

The Battalion, one mass of four hundred bodies, donned their respiratory protection, and rushed headlong into the fog - just as the broken forms of carriers charged from it, having heard the commotion.</span>

Today marks the last day of a campaign to rid the ruins of Charleston from the fungal carriers. It has been a bloody battle, spanning six months, and costing New Kiev over four hundred dead - a blow to its man power it can ill afford. Still, with the last of the infected driven from the city, the people of New Kiev can finally look to building for themselves a brighter future. 

The battle is expected to be short, but bloody. Early estimates place the death toll so far at a hundred, and this is expected to rise. However, it is a price the President is apparently willing to make. Many feel this is because of the chronic food shortage that is hitting the fledgling nation hard, and without a fishing fleet, the sea has been unable to provide the resources the people need. Therefore, it is thought the President is looking to drive inland, and to capture South Carolina's famed farmland. 

Even if he is successful however, it is feared that the time it takes to get crops sown, and the loss of life in clearing the area, may well be fatal blows to New Kiev. Only time will tell. 

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Hailing All Frequencies</div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""We might not find friends, Mr. President, but enemies. Broadcasting this message could draw on us a tide that we could not resist,"" Security Minister Jenkins, an American national, stated rather flatly. ""It'd be best if we sent scouts inland first, to assess who is out there first hand.""

The President, wearing an old world suit, stroked at his neatly trimmed goatee as he looked out over the ruins of Charleston. This he did for some minutes, occasionally sighing, or muttering a few unheard words. Finally he turned, and shook his head. 

""We need food, and we need it now. Someone must be out there who can help us. Make it happen, Minister, and make it happen today. 

Jenkins blew out air, showing his frustration. But it was not for him to go against the President. ""As you wish, I'll get it done.""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Message to All Players, via Radio Broadcast</span>

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">The Defence of Grand Coulee Damn</div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""How many of them are there, Sergeant?"" asked Jebediah Banks, commander of the Hegemony's 3rd Rapid Response Team. Looking out across the basin before the damn, one could sight a mass moving in the distance, drawn towards the rumbling of the generators.

""No idea, sir. Too many for an accurate count but I'd estimate about three thousand, three thousand five hundred,"" answered the scout.

Jeb grimaced. Three thousand versus his three hundred. Request for aid had been sent to Home Base but he had yet to receive a reply. Three thousand of those things. One of the largest hordes to pass by in recent years. Arrayed along the top of the damn were said defenders, holding an assortment of melee weapons and CQC firearms for dealing with the Carriers when they arrived. Someone had even managed to scrounge up one of the Hegemony's few mortars. They would need it.

""Don respiration!"" Jeb bellowed. Taking his own mask off and placing it on his face, he looked at those with him. Without help, they wouldn't survive. As the Carriers closed in increasingly quick, the mortar began to fire off. The battle had begun.</span>

The 3rd Rapid Response Force, composed of approximately 250 men, are responding to the horde bearing down upon the Grand Coulee Damn. Of a size not seen before in recent years, the defenders prepare to die to protect the station, one of the only sources of electricity operating at the moment. Should the defenders fall, the damn would fall into disrepair unless it was reclaimed, an arduous and/or lengthy task depending on how the horde moved.

Home Base, despite not responding, are assembling a task force of four hundred men to move to the damn quickly, hopefully arriving in time to save any defenders. Without support, however, all those at the damn will fall. The destruction of such a large horde, however, would mean greatly increased safety in that area of the Hegemony and possible expansion outwards.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Radio Response</div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""What the hell do you mean there's a radio message from some unknown source?"" asked Chancellor Andrea Habicht, leader of the Hegemony. Crowding with most of the other staff at the government center around the long-range radio, she appeared doubtful of the validity.

Reaching over to the dashboard, the operator pressed a button, causing the message to be repeated. Extremely garbled and almost impossible to decipher, they eventually gleaned the meaning that someone was in need of aid and looking for it.

""Did they say South Carolina, operator?"" asked the Chancellor.

""Yes ma'am.""

""Send no response. There is nothing we can do for them from here. We have our own problems anyway."" With that final statement, the group disbanded, returning to their work.</span>

Having received the message of New Kiev, the Hegemony does not respond, seeing no use in establishing contact with such a distant entity at the moment.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Long Range Team 3, ""The Hellhounds""</div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Why are we out here, Scott? It's been two months and we haven't found anyone. Not to mention we don't have too many people ourselves. Or food for that matter.""

""I'm the team leader, Clarice, so shut your damned mouth. We're the fuck are we anyways?""

One of the other members pulled out a map, tracing the path drawn with a pencil to indicate where they had gone. ""It seems we're almost in Dakota, sir.""

""Great. Middle of nowhere. Shit. I for one am not abandoning the task given to us and anyone who decides to leave will leave without equipment. Is that clear?""

""Crystal, sir,"" answered the thirteen others. Nodding, the small group ventured forth, passing the North Dakota border a scant hour later.</span>

Long Range Team 3 is part of an initiative by the Hegemony government. The last of the bands to be sent out, the Long Range Teams' purpose is to establish contact with other groups or find something that would be worth a costly expedition to acquire.

Teams 1 and 2 advance south and southwest, finding nothing for the moment, while Team 3 begins to enter Bismarck territory unknowingly.

The rugged horns of the Earth below thrust itself up in a broken landscape of gray rock and thick scraggly bushes. A landscape dominated my miles of twisting and labyrinthine gullies and valleys scarred the landscape for miles. The sharp crowns of the jagged hillsides spanning into the clear blue sky, and marching off into the distance where the details of the lost maze faded into the blue.

Patches of green dotted the hills, hardy pines and other rugged plants that scored the hillsides and narrow plateaus and adding more of nature's definition to geology's uprooting. In the distance a eagle cackled, its call echoing across the landscape, flowing through the broken hills, forging a river with the wind. This was the land of poets. And far on from the past it was not hard to see the blurring between the now and the then. The windswept and rain washed rocks and gravel creek beds still sung of an era dominated by bandits and outlaws, seeking refuge from the law. Of hunters and natives. And not now in this time the remnants of a proud race, seeking survival in the midst of a landscape burned by alien plague.

In the days people romance about, they talked of knights of wore at their hips six shooters of burning chrome. Who did battle with sheriff, savages, and outlaw alike. This was their kingdom this land. Where the crack of gunfire was indistinguishable from the blare of gunfire. People said in the days in the young days of the end gunfire once exploded in the badlands, the cracks of machine guns and rifles cutting down the hoards of the undead monsters of each other in a standoffish attempt to preserve the failing dignity of one another. And true, in the rocks as one traveled the casings and shrapnel left behind from those times could still be found glistening among the rocks.

These days are past, but hardly romanticized. The terror of survival too greatly clouding the memory to make them anything more than ghost stories told to children, or the reminiscing of the men who had lived through it by which to measure the size of each other's penises. In some ways, it was these rocky wastelands that gave unto the world the first blood of the first Lazarites, the men who rose from the grave of the aftermath to conduct and foster the revival of mankind from the brink of Hell. As Jesus once had with Lazarus, so will mankind.

On a rocky precipice a young man sat. Behind him his horse stood tethered to scraggly and twisted Chokecherry tree. The bark bearing gashes of the skirmishes that were so widespread here before he was alive. The smooth bark blasted opened and healed over in its hard scar tissue. Snorting impatiently the mid-size almond mare piked through the bushes that grew about its base, pulling apart the branches. Less from hunger, and more out of boredom.

With a distasteful knicker the horse kicked against the ground and rocked its head against the reigns, rattling the tree above her in her disinterest.

“Well hold on Missy, it shan't take 'em long!” the young man sneered, turning back to the tethered mare, “I know as well as you that they're taking long. But we gotta keep a eye out. You hear?”

The horse gave him a long blank glare, before shaking its hair. Her long black mane whipping about her neck.

“Ya keep thinkin' that and we're just going to get more bored.” the man laughed, dipping down into the can of cold beans he held with a bent and twisted spoon. His chapped and thin lips smacked around the maroon brown slop as he slurped and chewed the preserved foodstuff. He turned back from his mount and looked out across the badlands.

At his side lay the carbine rifle of his trade, and a long hatchet rested slung across his back. He remembered building the hatchet himself, carving the wood from a branch of oak under the oversight of his companions. Long as he was tall, the tool was made for use on horseback. The head had been forged and reforged nearly seven times, each time becoming more and more a head-taker's blade than it had before. It was broad, hardly narrow; its blade flattening and angling inwards down the handle, and not curving gently.

The youth himself was not as reworked as the axe itself. With only seventeen winters under his belt he had yet to grow a bear of a full man. His chin and face were narrow, from whence hung a long crooked nose. The wind blew through long chestnut brown hair, and his muddy brown eyes looked outwards into the expansive wasteland. He knew not where his companions had gone, just that they asked him to stay behind.

“Missy, how long you say it been since we came across anyone else?” the young man said, turning to his horse. The mare looked up at him, her ears turning atop her head.

“God, had to have been seven months now.” he said, “Shit, had to be 'bout twenty miles south o' Dickinson. Or whatever those ruins are. Can't stop thinkin' about the one chick in that band there.

“Now I don't know how much a horse can appreciate such fine details. But lord, did she have some nice tits. I wouldn't have mind rolling with her in the grass if we weren't on the move.”

Missy gave a disinterested snort, and went back to stuffing her snout into the bushes, further pulling them apart.

“I get hard thinking about it. I'm hoping we get somewhere and stay for a bit so I can work off some o' this here frustration.”

Missy didn't reply.

“I'm sure you feel the same way when your season comes and a fat hot stallion. I bet you ache. And I'm aching that way. But I doubt I'm going to be any sort of trouble more troublesome than you and your urges.”

The man snorted laughter and he looked back out into the twisting badlands. Lifting another spoonful of dripping, sloppy beans up to his mouth. With a dive the cool slop of the canned food fell on his tongue and he went back to chewing. The wind gusted through his wild hair and he looked back up to the jagged stones of the wilderness.

As the afternoon waned he spotted figures in the distance, riding on horseback through the narrow gullies. Their distant form shrouded in heavy black coats as they galloped through the wasteland. Five individuals in all.

“Looks like they're back.” the man grunted, pushing himself up onto his feet. On the wind he heard the soft thudding of hooves across the rocks, the regular galloping of the horses. As they wound closer the details of the riders became clear. The wide-brim hats shielding their faces. The long poles strapped to their backs, loaded up with heads. The glint of the sun off of their gas masks.

Ladened across the back of their mounts large bags lay behind their saddles. They made a regular pace, winding through the serpentine ravines till they came to the base of the rock the young man stood on. Finding purchase on gravel inclines they came up. A group of five, worn, weathered men.

“Welcome back.” the young man hailed the riders, “Now do you mind explaining why I couldn't come along?” he demanded.

“Ravines too narrow. Don't need anyone awkward following us through.” hissed a giant of a man on a jet black mare of his own. His long hide duster fell from his shoulders like a cape of some ancient royal. His gas mask made him alien as much as the heads of the infected speared on the post behind him made him a demon.

“I don't need your shit Hoss, you can come straight.” the young man demanded, provoking laughter from the rest.

“It doesn't matter anymore, Alabama. It's done.” crooned another, reaching up and pulling off his mask, “Shit's there where I thought it was. Even did some house cleaning.”

“Well that's all good. But why can't I go?” Alabama demanded, looking at the demasked rider, “Or is this some sort of secret?”

“We can't tell you. Ravines are too narrow. And your mouth is too fat.” the black rider, Hoss teased, biting Alabama deep as he circled around the side, “Besides, I'm sure you would have pissed your pants the moment they jumped up from above. Ain't that right, Elliot?”

The demasked rider nodded. He wasn't nearly as large as Hoss was, even with his coat. But he was a man large in his wisdom. His graying salted beard and weary grandfatherly blue eyes gave him an air much like a sage from some fairly land, “Afraid he's right. You've dealt with the Come Back Kids when you could see them a mile off. But ain't no ground you'll falter and break us when we're in the Badlands.

“You're still young to us, Alabama. Always will be for a long time. And you're still a homeless bastard child. You may think you're old enough, but for fucks sake you need a concept of safety. Which you still haven't got. You're going to have to give up and just recognize we don't want you stupid and to know when you're no longer not.

“And you'll get to see the hidey-hole when you're full fledged.”

“So if we're done complaining can we head back to Bismarck before these heads really start to rot?” Hoss protested impatiently, fighting to peel off his mask, “Fuckers are clean by now, but that doesn't mean they'll still not decay.”

“You're right.” Elliot nodded, “Alabama, get your horse. We're going into town.”

""And you better have not eaten all our beans."" sneered Hoss, pulling the mask off of the great globe that was his head. He looked down on Alabama, his scarred skin sagging off of heavy cheekbones.

""Don't worry."" Alabama spat, walking to Missy, ""We still got plenty.""</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">Story</div></span></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">January 9th, 2018:</span> NASA announces to the world that its telescope and radar installations have detected a small group of asteroids on collision course for Earth. The announcement is soon reaffirmed by the Kremlin in Moscow, and the European Space Agency’s Operations Center in Germany. The report is kept strictly between world leaders and their immediate advisors

<span class=""bb-b"">March 17th. 2019:</span> The asteroids, each of them perfect spheres of graphite in appearance, reach Earth’s orbit. Whilst some are no larger than a house, others are as big as cities. Populations around the globe panic, as the rocks become visible to the naked eye. A united effort between governments to alter the course of the asteroids via nuclear missiles fails to eliminate the threat, although many of the larger rocks are deflected by this last ditch defence.

Some of the asteroids land across the globe, smashing into Russia, China, Europe, Africa and the Americas. Others, missing land masses, hit the oceans. 

The resulting destruction is immense. Island and coastal nations are torn apart by wide reaching tsunamis, whilst further inland, earthquakes resulting from the asteroid impacts level entire cities. Millions die within the first hour, and millions more follow them in the days after. Health services are devastated, law and order breaks down in much of the world’s nations, leading to days of violence and madness, as each tries to save his or her own against their neighbour.

Governments collapse, and shattered militaries impose martial law, or their local form of it. Hundreds of thousands of people die in the resulting massacres.

<span class=""bb-b"">July 1st, 2019:</span> Nearly four whole months since the asteroid impacts, and Earth is getting back onto its feet. Some nations have ceased to exist, buried beneath the burning inferno that was once their territorial bounds. Others, like the United States and China, have risen from the chaos. 

The world has lost a third of its population. Electricity is a distant dream in many areas, whilst in others, so is basic sanitation. Starvation is running amok amongst those less fortunate, and international aid efforts are now non-existent. The countries still standing in the wake of the disaster, have focused their resources inwardly to stitch together their battered infrastructures.

<span class=""bb-b"">October 20th, 2019:</span> All over the world, at exactly the same time and with no delay between time zones, people start dropping with seizures. The victims fall into comas soon after. Embattled health services, even in the less affected nations, are brought to the ground as wards overspill with patients. 

Early indications point to a third of the world’s surviving population to have been affected, by what many call “The Happening”. 

The Happening brings the world to a standstill, as people from Presidents, to street sweepers, succumb to the bizarre illness. It is quickly discovered that almost 100% of the victims have blood type A+, although this helps little in developing an early explanation.

<span class=""bb-b"">October 21st, 2019:</span> The seizure victims arise from where they have fallen, and attack doctors, nurses, passer-by’s, friends and family. Hospitals are transformed instantly into nightmarish blood baths, and the streets of towns and villages run red with the blood of the innocent. Cities become warzones.

Security forces from across the globe hop to contain the threat, only to find themselves hopelessly unprepared against an enemy so numerous. Still, the assault rifle, bombing runs, tank divisions and artillery bombardments eventually prove effective- until the seizure victims start to rise again. 

The victims, after rising a second time, were found to be clinically dead – save for a strange fungal growth located across the spinal cord. Early tests showed to the fungus to be non-terrestrial, and alluded to the possibility that it was sentient, and controlling the host’s body for a higher purpose. 

In any case, the “revived” carriers possessed massive strength and a terrifying constitution. Conventional weapons were ineffective, as the only sure way of killing a revived carrier was by destroying the spinal cord. The battle turned against Man, before he had time to properly adjust to the radically changing situation.

<span class=""bb-b"">January, 2025:</span>  The War lasted six years, and ended with one winner: the infected. 

Billions stampede across the wasteland that is now Earth, searching for fresh prey – and the chance to spread their fungal infection further. There are no more armies, no more nations and there is no more resistance.

China, the United States, Russia and Western Europe are gone. The finest militaries in the world, unable to combat a threat that knew no pain, knew no fear and felt no mercy. The landmasses of Earth are dotted with the innumerable sights of battles fought with tanks, artillery and infantry, against an enemy that brought to the table just two weapons: airborne spores and a five second incubation period.

What remains of humanity retreats to the highest mountain, to the lowest cave and to the remotest island, to etch out a bleak existence on the edge of oblivion.


<span class=""bb-b"">March, 2060:</span> Eventually, host bodies of the fungus break down. They crumble into dust, and are consumed by the ground they bled to claim. Billions falls to millions, and humanity – numbering in only the tens of thousands, appears from its hiding places. Much of the world is now free of the fungus, and its carriers – but other parts, not so much. 

Together, the remainders of mankind venture from their strongholds and set their sights upon reclaiming that what was lost. In the midst of a Dead World, they hope to build over the bones of their not-so-distant ancestors, and to spawn a new age; the age of the Rise of Nations.

 <div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">How the Rp Works</div></span></div>


- This RP is entirely freeform, and moderated only along the most basic lines. (i.e, no God Modding and no wee taking)

- Pick an area on the map to form your new country. Give it a name, describe its culture and its technology. 

- Consider everywhere between your borders, and the borders of other players, as ""fungus infested"". 

- As leader of your nation, you must see to the needs of your people. Whether this means launching campaigns to reclaim lost territories from the fungal carriers, developing food sources, fighting other players over regional interests or activating whatever nuclear arsenals in the world remain, you must act the way you think is right, given the situation by which you are faced. 

- Old World technology still exists, along with the expertise to operate it. However, a lack of global industries and refined resources mean that spare parts and fuel are hard to come by. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">Fungal Carriers</div></span></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">A Brief Introduction:</span>
The alien fungus that has brought planet Earth to its knees is highly infectious. Initially, it was a rather simple fungal organism with a primitive cell structure. During the Happening, those with blood type A+ were the only eligible victims of the spores that were coating the Earth.

Forty years later however, and things have changed drastically. Humans are no longer the only victims, and it seems that all members of the Animal Kingdom are now at risk. Blood type no longer matters, and no one seems immune to the spores. 

Transmission of the fungus between carriers has changed too. Whilst spores, emitted at all times by the flesh of a reanimated infected, are the deadliest means, many of the reanimated infected have grown small tendrils around their limbs. These tendrils are capable of injecting the fungus directly into their prey’s bloodstream, and are capable of punching through soft materials. 

As time progresses, a reanimated body slowly succumbs to the fungus, as it attempts to replace rotting flesh with its own version of the missing tissues. Eventually, the host will be reduced to one big crumbling pile of spires. Prior to this however, the reanimated hosts are extremely dangerous with inhuman strength. It takes many bullets to take them down, or just one – placed directly to the spine.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fallers, and Crazies:</span> Fallers, or Crazies depending on the locality, are the early victims of the fungus. They are human, and can be killed just the same – with a few exceptions. The fungus grows along the spinal cord, hijacking the host’s control over the body, and using it to maim, kill or infect those who are not already contaminated. 

Victims are conscious of what is happening. They can think, talk, look and hear, but their limbs are not theirs to control. It is possible therefore, for them to warn their peers of their fate, before the fungus has a chance to manifest its murderous intent. 

It can take just five seconds for a healthy living human, whether through spore inhalation or tendril injection, to become a Faller or a Crazy. The first sign of someone being infected, is the momentary seizure they will suffer prior to getting up and attacking the closest non-infected life form. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Carriers:</span> Carriers are what jump back up once a Faller or Crazy has been put down. They are clinically dead – the human part of them is no more. The fungus is quick to act upon the moment of the host’s death, first by splintering off into the brain, and then by growing along the host’s bones. Within hours, the host will arise once more. The only way to kill them is to destroy the spinal cord, or more specifically, the area between the shoulder blades – where the nucleus of the fungal infection dwells. If this area is destroyed, the host will fall lifelessly to the floor. Once the nucleus is damaged or destroyed, it will not regrow. 

The fungus cannot hear, smell nor see. It senses vibrations, instead, and is capable of releasing varying spores to other hosts, enabling them to communicate along basic lines. Apart from this however, they should not be considered “intelligent”. Indeed, they never learn from their mistakes… but then, they’ve never had to. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gas Masks!?</span> Yup. The safest way to traverse a fungus infested area is to wear a gas mask, to filter out the spores. Although, this does not offer 100% protection, and people can still be knocked down if their equipment is ill-maintained or poorly used. 


<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">Technology and Culture</div></span></div>

The United States and Canada are not as we know them today. Their people have been destroyed; their cities levelled. Whatever remained of those two great nations is now consigned to memory. Therefore, the cultures emerging in this barren landscape are likely to be of varying forms. 

However, some survivors may have been in their twenties when all of this went down originally, and may carry memories of what things were like beforehand. Therefore, they may very much like to recreate what happier times remember.

Technology varies, with modern equipment still available to the survivors. Indeed, it probably saved most of them in their darkest hour. However, with a total collapse of global trade, resources are perilously hard to come by – especially fuel and raw materials. Replacement parts for more technologically advanced equipment may well be impossible to maintain. The horse might be looking for a comeback. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">Map</div></span></div>

The Roleplay is set in the backdrop of a destroyed North America. There hasn't been a government in Washington or Quebec for fifty years, and whatever remains of its once impressive military is isolated to small outposts and consigned to a daily battle for survival. Bands of survivors from across the lifeless plains have merged together since the continent's fall, and have successfully established communities. 

<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/BhLdusM.png""/>

As the RP progresses, and as the various nation states develop, bonus ""colonial theatres"" will be opened. Here, nations will be able to attempt lucrative colonisation operations over abandoned resources, such as oil wells, nuclear silos, rich agriculture areas and other such things.


<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h2"">Nation Sheet</div></span></div>


There is no formal sheet for this roleplay, as I'd like to keep it as freeform as possible. Include as much, and as little, information as you want. Some players like filling in the gaps through the roleplay, after all. However, here are a few areas you should cover:

- Nation's Name

- Leader's/Government's Name

- Choose an area on the map for your nation and draw the borders for me to see, or describe them. I will colour the area in, and label it for you on the main map.

- Description of Technology

- Description of Society

-  Population – I’m limiting the total population of the American theatre to 100,000. So, all entries’ populations combined must either equal, or fall below that number. Mankind has been decimated after all, would be a bit silly if it came out of hiding with millions tucked away.

- Description of any significant industries your nation operates. I.e blacksmithing, gun making, agriculture. This'll help any potential future trade deals take place with other players.

Please post your applications in the OOC. Once I've accepted them, you can move them over to the characters section.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader's/Government's Name:</span> Supreme Councillor George Chamberlain

Whilst Halifax claims to be a ""Republic"", in reality it follows a mixed government model, combining monarchy in the Supreme Councillor, aristocracy in the Senate, and a ""democracy"" of elected representatives in the Council.

The Supreme Councillor is an elected monarch, voted in by the Senate. The Senate is a group of the more wealthy and 'high-blooded' individuals in Halifax. Most members are thought to be descended from the chieftains and band-leaders that seized power before Halifax was united, hence their 'aristocracy'. The Council is a group of elect, chosen by the people to represent each 'borough' on the Nova Scotia peninsular. They function mainly like the IRL British Parliament, and vote in candidates from the Senate for Supreme Councillorship, though the Senate makes the final decision.

<span class=""bb-b"">Claimed territory:</span> &gt; <a href=""http://i58.tinypic.com/2s1aped.png"">http://i58.tinypic.com/2s1aped.png</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Technology:</span> Technology is very varied in Halifax. In some areas, primarily shipping, much has been preserved and reproduced as much as possible, but with a return to sail-power and, importantly, coal power, with the end of oil trade. Of course, hi-tech items such as smartphones and tablets have not survived, but computers are still used to an extent for navigation. Radio has survived, but is not reliable. In terms of agriculture, methods have reverted to a Middle Ages-like condition, resulting in a great deal of emphasis being put on fishing as a food source - especially with the boom in fish populations with the end of commercial fishing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Society:</span> The society of Halifax focuses mainly on trade and commerce. Although currency is almost non existent in this new and hostile world, focus is often put on acquiring what wealth is available - leading to the widespread assumption that Haligonians (actual demonym) are hoarders. All in all, society functions similarly to Venice in the Middle Ages.

Society deals with the problem of the reviving dead with a strict ritual - the dying are sent on their 'Final Voyage' on a raft and towed out to sea. It is assumed by the Haligonians that they will never reach land again, especially in the cold northern waters. An alternative is cremation followed by scattering in the ocean.

Industries: The company Irving Shipbuilding has survived, and manufactures some of the best ships possible with the limited resources available. These are often just coal, sail or oar-powered, or a combination with oil-power due to limited resources. Shipbuilding is therefore Halifax's primary industry - they are prepared to build ships for those who pay, or act as naval mercenaries - for a high price.

Fishing is also important, not only to provide food for the Haligonians themselves, but also to trade with others. With the collapse in organised agriculture, caravans could be organised inland to trade fish for other resources, such as fuel or other types of food.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader's/Government Name:</span> Andrea Habicht

The government structure of the Hegemony, despite the democratic aspects, resembles a dictatorship more than anything else. A chancellor leads the state , wielding nigh-absolute authority in all matters. His/her orders can only be contradicted should all of the mayors reject her decision, a rare occurrence. With such power the Chancellor is able to quickly respond to any incidents that would threaten the Hegemony, not having to deal with any objections that could endanger the safety of the inhabitants. The Chancellorship is awarded by a group of elders, representing the mayor and community representative of each township. The mayor of each town is elected in a similar manner. Despite these absolutist measures democratic elements are still present in society, including the right to petition, protest, and oust a leader if they are mismanaging the town/Hegemony.

<a href=""http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f307/SirVesuvius/1024px-BlankMap-USA-states-Canada-provinces_HI_closersvg_zps53a6a34c.png"">Territory of the Hegemony</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Society</span>
Society took a harsh turn ever since the outbreak began, more so in some places than others. One of the areas to take extreme measures was the area which would eventually become the Hegemony. One may become a citizen by being born in Hegemony territory or by being admitted by a senior official's recommendation. All others must first pass a two week's probationary period before taking a 'test'. This test is more a display of will and loyalty, required by all to ensure that the Hegemony does not fall. The test taker is given an unloaded gun but this fact is not shared. They are then forced to 'shoot' someone. If the person cannot bring themselves to do it then they are thrown out of the territory. If they pass then they are immediately accepted as a citizen. A secondary test may be taken if the first one is failed, albeit a much more dangerous one. A person is sent out into the wild and must return by the end of the fifth day of leaving. On one condition. The applicant must bring back the heads of at least three zombies. If the applicant is part of a family they are sent out alone or with any children over the age of 16. If this task is completed then the applicant is also immediately accepted. Any form of dangerous behavior is dealt with harshly, flogging being the most basic punishment, though more serious crimes will result in death or expulsion without chance of return.

<span class=""bb-b"">Description of Technology</span>
The Hegemony boasts an impressive array of technology and industrial capabilities despite the degraded state of the world following the outbreak. Large amounts of farming equipment can be found within or just outside the border, remnants of the old vineyards that produced massive quantities of wine pre-outbreak. This impressive array allows the inhabitants of the Hegemony to support themselves with farming to an extent despite the harsh nature of the area in which they live. The only problem presented by this is that the best farmland lies outside of the Hegemony's mountainous territory. In addition to farming, the Hegemony is only a short distance away from the Pacific Ocean and one of the largest ports on the West Coast. As such there are several fishing ships that can be commandeered by those of the Hegemony, although this is not done frequently as it involves risks of all kinds, albeit less than that of farming. Most often, fishing is done in the streams that run through the state of Washington.

Military technology, while not in abundance, are not a rare sight either. Over decades the nearby airfields and bases have been strippped of all valuable material, providing a vast supply of explosives, ammunition, spare parts, vehicles, and other specialized equipment. The planes were left in the airfield in hopes that they could one day be used to venture further than they ever have before. A firearm is kept in every house, meant to be used as a deterrent against the living . Against the dead, older style weaponry is used, primarily maces and short swords. Each village maintains a defense force ready to react but the bulk of the killing is done by roaming teams of hunters patrolling the borders. When encountering a group of zombies they will utilize their weapons to dispatch them quietly. If detected they form a shield wall using procured riot shields and finishing off the zombies. Each kill team also has two men that carry a firearm.

<span class=""bb-b"">Industries</span>
The Hegemony stands as one of the main producers of raw materials out of the surviving societies. Mining quarries are scattered throughout the mountains, allowing the Hegemony access to metals and stone with which to build. In addition, manufacturing plants for electronics. vehicles, and lumber are situated near the Hegemony, allowing them to produce a variety of rarer items if needed. Due to an abundance of damns in the area, the Hegemony has been able to repair some and restore power to these plants. However, as the plants lie outside the border, it presents a danger to all those involved. Despite this availability, they do not have the means to manufacture weapons, clothing, or medical equipment very well, relying on others or rare scavenging ventures to bring back these supplies. Food can also be a problem for them as the mountainous terrain limits the crop-growing ability of many.</div>"

Not to mention such over enthusiastic production would lead to criminal deflation and thus crash the economy when everyone starts loosing money when the value of their whatever drops well below what they need to live.

    The government is called, unimaginatively, The Confederacy. One member from each canton represents their district, and a single member is elected Primus inter Pares, or First among Equals, after someone pulled the term from an old book. The First, as they are often called, is 'in charge' insomuch as the others respect and admire whoever it is, but a two-thirds majority is required for a decision to be passed. It works surprisingly well, though that may be because there are only 15 cantons so far.  

   

    Being a farming confederation at the end of the day, the technological focus is on tools and equipment that can make their jobs easier. Old world farming equipment is carefully hoarded and loaned out to the larger communities while carefully monitored animal power has it's place in the off season and in smaller, out of the way communities.
    Wool and leather are common clothing materials, with cotton and other similar materials being traded for(if applicable).
     A large stock of old-world weapons, mainly rifles and shotguns are distributed throughout the towns and villages for the local militia, though low stocks of ammunition leave their use to designated sharpshooters. There is also squads of crossbows or archers, depending on the community in question, and like the rifles, built with human opponents rather than undead ones in mind. In addition to these ranged weapons, each community has a stock of close combat weapons, used as a last resort or against more human opponents.

    Like Switzerland in the medieval period, the Great Lakes Confederation is more of an alliance of towns than a single unified state. There is a single capital, and some laws that govern every canton, but beyond ensuring that citizens have equal rights, regulating the livestock farms and game resources, and maintaining the militia the cantons are free to do as they please.
    One may become a citizen of the Great Lakes Confederation either by simply being born in a territory claimed by the Confederation, by claiming descent from other citizens within a maximum of two generations, or by being sponsored by an existing citizen and spending two years in probation. By being a citizen, the individual must make themselves available for militia training unless physically unable to, report any violation of the livestock laws or sightings of the undead, and have one part in ten of anything they produce taken as a tax. In exchange they receive the protection of the Confederation, whether it is from the undead, looters, other communities or even abuse from within the Confederation itself.

    The primary resources and industries of The Confederation is farming, livestock and salvaging dead cities. The last is quite lucrative, as there are four large cities within their territory, London, Toronto, Montreal and Hamilton, with Detroit, Ottawa and Quebec City all within travel distance. Also of importance is the St. Lawrence River itself, giving the Confederation access to the Atlantic, should there be any opportunities of trade with other states along the seaboard.</div>"

Well on that note, to those with itchy fingers, I'll allow the RP to start. However, I wont be able to post until tomorrow afternoon. 

The RP is still open, as its perfectly feasible that factions/communities would be popping up all the time, as humanity starts to rebuild. So anyone wanting to join can do so. 

As for writing styles, having glanced at other nation RPs, it seems this site is very much all for the character perspective kind of narrative. I'm more used to the formal, newspaper kinda format. So what I'll do, is simply say: ""Write your posts however you like"" 

Catch you all tomorrow. Nighty night.</div>"

Nation's Name: Bayou Republic

Leader's/Government's Name: Given name is Louise Arson. He changed his name to Napoleon Quatre after he took control of his area. 

Choose an area on the map for your nation and draw the borders for me to see, or describe them. I will colour the area in, and label it for you on the main map: Louisiana

Description of Technology: 
Life Technology
The Bayou Republic's technology orbits around 3 things, How to make guns, How to make food, and how to make more guns. This means that the Bayou Republic is very militaristic, with the harvest weapons from the Shreveport and Fort Polk bases in the nation they have the ability to use drones, but that doesn't mean they love to fight head on. They use what they call modified Bayonets, they are basically Machine Guns with swords welded on top of them. When low on those weapons though, they aren't afraid to just use normal hunting weapons overall.

City Scape Technology
Large Cities such as New Orleans are much more advanced then cities such as Bunkie. New Orleans also has the largest port in the Republic, which means that most of the countries military and trade ships are planted there, ready to deploy at any moment.

Shreveport holds the largest military base in the country, with a large amount of left over drones in that area. They government of the Bayou Republic are also in the process of building a wall around the city.

Description of Society:
Society in the Bayou Republic is a Social Pyramid. The races of the nation, though most seem similar, are all divided. 

The Highest on the Pyramid are the Cajun-Creole group. The current leader is Cajun-Creole. 

Next up on the list are the bulk of the population. They are just the normal southerners. They are simply known as the dixie.

Lastly are the African Americans, treated poorly, but still not slaves. Most of the High class do not treat African Americans well typically giving them the worst jobs possible.

The Republic is also a bit like Switzerland. Everyone in the country by law must own a gun and they are all legally in the military if they are in the ages between 16 and 46. Though only a few use the military as the full time job, most are use only for invasions or defence.

Description of any significant industries your nation operates. I.e blacksmithing, gun making, agriculture. This'll help any potential future trade deals take place with other players:
The Bayou Republic focuses on building military goods, they trade with small wandering groups or other countries by using the Mississippi River. They also produce plenty of boats, from fishing to military. Agriculture was a big part of Louisiana before the zombies came, but most Tractors where taken and modified as military vehicles.

Population: 90K, with the swamps around the area, most people who die are thrown in them, this was learned far after the main sweep of zombies came in though.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">- Nation's Name:</span> Deutschland

<span class=""bb-b"">-Leader's/Government's Name:</span> Caleb Yoder 

Yoder and two other elders are representatives for the community appointed by the population to serve their interest. Like the old New England Town Meeting form of government, the population as a whole vote on decisions while the Elders carry out their wishes.

<span class=""bb-b"">-Territory:</span> Western Pennsylvania 

<span class=""bb-b"">-Description of Technology:</span> Like the past hundreds of years, Deutschland has very little technology outside of the recently acquired guns, gas masks, and medicine that the people have scavenged from nearby cities, or traded for with the English. They get by on manual labor and literal horsepower. 

<span class=""bb-b"">-Description of Society-</span>

Deutschland is the remnants of the Pennsylvania Dutch, the Amish community in the state. While the world collapsed around them, they banded together and became even more insular, shunning the English and the wickedness that had allowed the world to end. Unfortunately, the outside world came calling in the form of raiders who stole their food and people, and the infected who wiped out their strong population. The once passive people now saw the need to protect themselves, they needed to adopt a few ways of the English to survive. They now highly militant and even more standoffish with the rest of the world. They trade with nearby communities, but will not allow outsiders inside their lands. Led by Caleb Yoder as First Elder, Deutschland continues to rebuild and grow stronger.

<span class=""bb-b"">- Population – 4,621</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">-Industries:</span> The Amish have reputations as skilled craftsman. They are experts in subjects ranging from carpentry and smithing to baking and sewing. In addition, they are well adept at farming and have a steady supply of food that they grow for consumption and trade.</div>"

The entirety of a population isn't all military dedicated. 100,000 isn't all that large given he's claiming all of Lousiana with a modern population of 4 million.

By all standards, a tenth of the population can safely be in the military under certain conditions, providing they're not warrior nomads or trying to build a modern industrial lifestyle with very non-industrial means.

What Aaron is trying to say is that 100,000 is unrealistically low anyways. The population of New Kiev is a third of that of my hometown, which is small anyways, and New Kiev is ALL OF SOUTH CAROLINA. A single military base could supply the entirety of North America with weapons if the population is 100,000. The only nations in the world with a population at all comparable to that of our nations are tiny island nations (mainly UK territories), the Vatican, and Sealand. Examples of nations with a comparable population to that of the entirety of North America in this RP are the illustrious and famous nations of the ""Independent and Sovereign Republic of Kiribati"" and the ""Federated States of Micronesia"".

With a population of a few thousand anyways you're not really running a nation anymore. You're running a small town. So it becomes pointless in the grand scheme unless you want to play City Builder.

Presuming this even could have killed 90% of any state's population from infection or violence after the fact we'd all still be looking at populations in the few hundred ten thousands. There may be larger drops in more densly populated regions since this sort of density would lend into making infection easier. But for the Carolinas and Lousiana it'd be laughable to dive well below Dakota-tier population.</div>"

Unless you expected your women to be equipped with Gatling-gun style genitals, capable of firing out 20 babies a minute, how else did you expect to reclaim land?

Is this how you GM RPs? Jumping out whenever someone dares to go against your opinion (In this case, cracking because of a one-line post about a lot of resources making a risen nation)? Here. I'm gonna post my argument here so you can go ahead and read it, which you won't, because you're apparently too angry to do anything but insult people who thought you had a good idea and were willing to pour significant amounts of their time into said idea.

I would highly suggest that you read my interview in RPGN. Maybe you'll learn a tiny bit about how to GM an NRP. Or RP in general. Because you seem to need help with that.

I get that, these aren't nations. The thing is, if you're expecting us to somehow make a nation over the course of this roleplay, you're mistaken. Gravely mistaken. Let's assume that every woman has five children. It's practically inevitable that the majority of those will die from disease (try getting antibiotics to even <span class=""bb-i"">work</span>this far in the future). If we decide to be ludicrously optimistic, that leaved two children. If we go at the (quite fast, mind you) pace of one page=one year, that means fourteen or fifteen pages until a working population double. To get any kind of ""nation"" going, we'd have to have quite a few of those. If we keep going by this, it's 96 pages until we reach 160,000, which is kinda sorta enough to have a large town. Still not any nations, and of course, people died in that 96 year period. So let's keep going. 1,280,000 comes 144 pages later, and at that point we would have a major city-sized population. This is 144 years later. If we assume that everyone avoided industrialization like a plague (which they definitely didn't, because shipbuilding is already a thing), then we'd finally have low population density nations.

So yeah. It would take a hundred pages to get there. Now, let's think about these ""colonies"" you seem to have planned. At this point, humanity is spread out and not industrialized (If we are industrialized by then, which we will be, then we still don't have any nations until perhaps even 200 pages), nobody is founding a colony by then. These colonies would only happen around 200 pages, which is a random guess based off of the fact that the entire planet is trying to kill us, there will totally be wars, NUCLEAR WEAPONS ARE MENTIONED, and diseases exist in general.

And that's if I'm being optimistic.

As I said before: NUCLEAR WEAPONS ARE MENTIONED. THEY EXIST AND CAN BE USED. If I was being more realistic in my predictions? The point of colonization would never be reached due to nuclear war killing the vast majority of everyone.

Now, let's change gears and talk about your last comment. ""If you're telling me that NONE of you have any idea of how to found and establish a nation, then Great Scot! Turn that imagination machine of yours on, and stop relying on that set-menu mentality.""

I hope that was sarcasm. We're a bunch of random people from all over the world, and I'd be willing to bet that none of us are fucking George Washington or Alexander the Great. Some of us may not even know how to <span class=""bb-i"">drive</span> yet. What do you expect us to do with a few thousand people? Invent mass cloning and extreme genetic manipulation?</div>"

Even the Rocky Mountain ""Hegemony"" or whatever holds enough population centers inside of it to have a population of a couple ten thousand. Sure, all they got are tiny towns and one large Indian reservation, but they shouldn't have triple zeroes. They'd still have tremendously low population density, but they wouldn't be able to do anything.

Under the proposed numbers you will be restricting many of us to just play around in our borders. Assuming we take up conventional social structures or even the social structure of medieval Western Europe we'd hardly have enough population to actually act outside of our borders in any significant way. So you're asking many to do effectively nothing for hundreds of pages, or proposing we somehow conquer settlements with equal population, in which case the likely disorganized fighting and the elements will probably lead to little population growth.

And on Windsor itself, Jec's Canada-ville could easily have twenty-thousand people based out of the ruins of Windsor, Ottawa. Which'd make it easily about the size of medieval London or 13th century Rome in terms of approximate population.</div>"

The entire initial idea (which I quite liked, personally) was scrapped after someone(s?) pointed out that it wouldn't be realistic. Now it's some fungus bullshit from space. Maybe I just got the scale wrong, but the bit about this being a small-scale, struggling to start ""nation"" that exists as a loose idea in a few people's heads appealed to me because it sounded fun and interesting to play. I think what we're expected to do is take the guidelines and limitations set out and play with them to the best of our abilities.

Out of all the students at the school the fae girl ranked third. Third only because she was a freshman. Although unlike her the ghoul at the back of the room in the highest room had her feet up on the desk looking around simply annoyed. Sera honestly didn`t like Crimson, she seemed like the kind of person who was just throwing her life away instead of working hard for what you want. 

All Crimson wanted was to get out of this damn class. Everything the teacher was saying was stuff she`d learned at her private school back where she had lived before coming here. Unlike Sera who was a good student Crimson was the main image of a bad student. She wasn`t good at academics. Out in the field is where she shined. During the physical parts of the academy`s school day was where she showed just what she could do. It was the only reason she wasn`t a freshman but a junior. At the moment both of her eyes were blue, it wasn`t like the teachers allowed ghouls like her to dine on humans anyway. It was against the rules. Though this meant that she was starving a lot of the time. Even the coffee at this school didn`t help her hunger. 

Korra was sitting in the middle of the room her ears laying against her head as she felt her stomach rumble. The only thing on her mind was getting something to eat. Breakfast had early this morning and lunch was still another forty minutes away. Looking around the class room she saw a guy in her grade, Luke. Making sure the teacher wasn`t looking she walked over to him and sat down next to him trying not to be sene by the teacher. ""Hey Luke do you have any food?"" She asked curiously. The cat demon wasn`t unknown for being the most carefree in the class, making her a nuisance to some.</div>"

Like his brothers him and jake and Luke knew this stuff, his chin rested on his folded arms he looked around the classroom boredly. He and his brothers were almost like a really small pack, though they weren't and they were.

Jake sighed slightly, he knew Alex was bored the look on his face just screamed boredom. A small smile came to his face, when the thought of his brother bored. Each of them only a year apart in age, though he was the youngest it didn't really matter though they were equals to each other.

Luke glanced over at Korra, a small grin coming to his face before he shook his head to her answer. He looked to Jake, looked like him and Alex weren't really paying attention to the teacher of course not since it was something all three of them knew since they were little.</div>"
3015,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-29 23:28:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Aww,"" Korra said and rested her head on the desk. ""I`m starving,"" she said and her ears drooped down lower on her head. Picking her head up she looked around the room and started to walk over to someone else although she froze when she heard, ""Korra! Get back in your chair now!"" The teacher yelled looking at from the bottom of the room. ""But I`m starving!"" Korra whined and get a glare in return from not only the teacher but the three ghouls in the room including Crimson. ""I`m sure you can`t be any more starving then the ghouls in this school. Now sit down!"" Korra sighed and went back to her seat sitting down with a sigh.

Crimson glared at Korra before leaning back again. She really wanted some coffee with the special sugar cubes they had for ghouls. Korra thought she was starving. Try hungering for human flesh every second of every day. She couldn`t even work her Kagune because of this stupid diet. The human didn`t even have to be alive, it didn`t matter to her. It actually was a preference for them to have died on their own. Eating a live human just left a bad feeling in her that she wanted to avoid as much as possible. It wasn`t like eating normal food was even an option for her kind either. Human food left their systems dying and weak, never mind the ash taste of it. Coffee was the only human food they could drink and taste to control their hunger.

Fae looked at Korra and sighed. This lesson was further evaluating the history of lycanthropes. History was one of the subjects she actually enjoyed a lot. This cat demon was really making her mad. Korra did this everyday, pestering people for food until they gave her some. Mrs.Kole had just been explaining the first lycan to live through a silver bullet to the heart. One of the topics she`d actually been looking forward too. They`d been in this school year for four months now you`d think it`d calm down by now.</div>"

""Yes Alex?"" Mrs. Kole said, the other two brothers knew what was coming so they listened they liked it better when he said it. ""Most of the history for that is exaggerated saying he wasn't affected, he was John was in bed for months after the bullet gotten taken out his body was fighting long and hard to stay alive."" Mrs. Kole frowned to that, she always hated being out shown by a lycan since it was of course lycans had already heard the stories.

Luke smiled to that, before shrugging. He looked to the clock, thanks to Alex they didn't have to do any work. The bell rang and all three lycanthrope brothers bolted out of there seats toward the door oh how they all hated history especially the stuff they've already heard.</div>"
3017,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-29 23:56:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson sighed in relief as the bell rang and got up from her seat before walking down the stairs and out the door. ""I can finally get some damn coffee."" She said walking out into the hall towards the cafeteria. Going right to the café she ordered a cup of coffee and took it when it was done. Purchasing some sugar cubes with it. She walked out into the garden and sat down in the corner of it at a table putting the cubes in and mixing them till they were dissolved before drinking some of the coffee.

Korra had bolted out of the classroom immediately running to the cafeteria when the bell rang. Going around the cafeteria she asked for food from people around the cafeteria until she had a full lunch. Going to a table outside by where Crimson was she started eating the scavenged food she had obtained. Korra was here at the school due to a scholarship. Her parents didn`t have the money to send her to a school like this therefore sometimes paying all that money for a school lunch that she probably wouldn`t eat some of didn`t seem like a good idea. Although her scholarship did give her enough money to purchase said food.

Sera was the last one to leave the classroom a little upset that Alex had spoiled the whole lesson. Instead of going to the cafeteria like all the other students Sera went to the library with a lunch she had made and packed for today. It`d become a bit of a routine for to do so. She wasn`t much for interacting with the other students. A lot of them were just loud anyways.</div>"

Getting the food he went and sat down by there regular spot. A tree and two rocks which made, a tiny circle. Sitting down and leaning his back against the bark he sighed as he took a bite out of the steak.

Luke sat down on the highest rock, laughing at his brother. ""Sheesh I swear your turning into our father."" Seeing Alex's face he laughed, before shaking his head and sighing as he watched the other students. 

Jake looked at his two brothers, sometimes he thought he was the more mature one, before his head was pushed into his food, he grumbled since he already knew who it was. Watching Michael pass he growled so did his brothers before they and he calmed down a bit.</div>"
3019,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 00:26:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra heard laughing and got up from her spot Crimson watching her walk over to the three boys. ""Hey, do you mind if I eat with you guys?"" Korra asked flashing a smile her canine teeth showing. If the ears and tail didn`t give off that she was a demon that definitely did. 

Crimson watched Korra talk to the boys. She wasn`t much for talking unless she was talked too. It was one of the things about how she grew up. Most ghouls knew each other and knew almost everyone in the different areas. They weren`t a big race like humans so it made sense. A lot of them were also blood thirsty though so she tried to stay with the nicer ghouls. 

Sera sat down at a table on the side of the library and started eating as she read a book. The book was about lycans and the way their lives were. It was written by a lycan and she found it very interesting. Being a fae people often expected her to be more interested in her powers. Truth was though that Sera`s powers were very weak. She never had really got the hang of them.</div>"

The other two boys nodded in agreement, though Alex grumbled something under his breath. ""What did you say Alex?"" 

Alex smirked before shaking his head, ""not telling you Luke now that would ruin it wouldn't it."" He laughed slightly jake had joined in, ""I swear you are dad in many ways brother."" Alex looked at jake and ""what does that mean.""

Jake smirked, ""many things big brother many things I may be the youngest but I am the most mature."" He heard snorts from the two beside him he sighed and shook his head.</div>"

""I`m sorry but I`ll agree with Jake. He does act the most mature out of the three of you."" She commented smirking a little as she drank a bottle of juice someone had given her. Looking around she saw Crimson. ""Hey you come over here!"" She yelled and Crimson looked at her almost startled before getting up with a sigh taking her coffee with her. Crimson walked over to Korra and looked down at her. ""What is it?"" Crimson asked feeling awkward. ""Why don`t you have any food?"" Korra asked oblivious to the fact that Crimson was a ghoul. ""I`m a ghoul my food isn't aloud here."" Crimson stated simply feeling even more awkward at this. ""What is your food? You can have some of mine!"" Korra said and Crimson looked at the food in Korra`s hands gagging a bit just by looking at it. ""I`ll stick to my coffee.""</div>"

Then Luke smacked him on the back of his head, ""ow!"" Luke just looked at his brother before turning to the new person to there small group. He swallowed not really used to anyone around him except family.</div>"

Korra asked looking up at her, Crimson nodded in response. Korra looked at the three lycans. ""I know I asked if I could sit here but would you mind if she sat here too? I mean she always sits over there by herself."" Korra asked them. Crimson looked at Korra surprised not expecting to be dragged into their little group. She looked at Alex who was the oldest before looking anywhere else. Alex had been in her class since they both came to this academy two years ago freshman year. Back then their class had been smaller compared to how it was now. The past two years they had never said anymore than few words to each other.</div>"

Before nodding, ""yah she can saying now we don't have many friends we just keep to ourselves most of the time though I still hate how they exaggerate lycan history but meh I don't really care I only do it to get on the teachers nerves."" He was hit upside the head again, ""ow what did I do what did I do?""

Luke smirked, ""that's acting to much like dad we don't need you turning into him all of a sudden."" Jake bursted out laughing, ""that is to true we don't need you turning into dad of course you look nothing like him.""</div>"

Crimson sat down a drank her coffee out of it`s cup feeling her hunger become a little bit more controlled. The thing she hungered for she knew people found revolting but it wasn`t her fault. At one point she herself would have been scared of herself but things happen. For instance having a ghoul`s organ transferred into her body at the age of five and becoming half ghoul. Your parents abandoning her because she`s a monster in their eyes because she was no longer human. Korra laughed, ""what`s you guys dad like? You seem to mock Alex a lot for being like him.

Alex seems like the type to be one as well I can see the resemblance."" she said and finished her lunch and then drank the rest of her juice. Crimson looked at them. ""Can you swim in human form?"" She asked curiously this being the first time she`s willingly tried to join a conversation between a group of students. It felt a bit awkward. It was something she was very curious about though. In wolf form your fur would weigh you down but in human form it shouldn`t be too different from everyone else.</div>"

""Might, meaning you probably will."" She joked still feeling very awkward. She drank more of her coffee and sighed. The flavor was really nice today, she could tell they were using better coffee beans. Korra looked at her and then at the boys before laughing. ""From how you guys act I wouldn`t be surprised at all. You know you guys don`t look very much alike. How did that happen?"" Korra asked looking at all their different hair colors.</div>"
3030,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 01:54:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">All three boys snorted, ""a prank gone wrong."" They said in unison, ""though my hair didn't change color theirs did."" He said pointing to Luke and jake, ""Jake went to go and dye Luke's hair red but he didn't know the bucket of bleach on top of his door it fell on him bleaching his hair white. Still he went and dyed Luke's hair red. My hair was just left the same though some substance got dumped all over me and I couldn't think straight for a week.""</div>"
3031,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:13:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""You guys seem to get into a lot trouble."" Crimson said looking at them. They all seemed just like you`d think lycans would act. They acted like a pack. She had never been in a pack because she wasn`t a lycan but it didn`t mean she hadn`t heard a lot of stories from other people about them. Most were about pranks that they`d pull on each other. ""How long ago did you guys do that?"" Korra asked and looked at Alex. ""So your hair is the only natural one.""</div>"
3032,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:25:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex nodded, ""yes it is."" He frowned in though Luke and Jake looked at him, smirking slightly. ""Four years ago really,"" Alex sighed slightly, shaking his head at his brothers. Cracking his neck while Luke rubbed the back of his in thought.</div>"
3033,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:34:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Hmm, that`s weird it never changed back."" Crimson commented finishing her coffee. Korra yawned, ""do we have to go to training after break. All I want to do is take a nap."" She said and Crimson looked at her. ""You have over an hour to sleep."" Crimson said and Korra smiled. ""Your right!"" She said before shifting into a small white cat walking over to Crimson she curled into a ball next to her leg and fell asleep rather quickly. ""She is possibly the most energetic demon I`ve ever seen in my life."" Crimson said looking down at her with wide eyes.</div>"
3034,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:37:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex laughed, ""your lucky it isn't one of those demons who try to seduce you on the spot."" He shivered to that, shaking his head. Before frowning crossing his arms over his chest. Luke looked like he was trying to hide a smirk from his brother he remembered that clearly, so did jake though he was shivering also.</div>"
3035,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:41:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked at them and grimaced. ""You know there are succubus demons in the academy right? An incubus tried to haunt my dreams a week ago."" She said honestly. That hadn`t ended well for him. No she had beat him to a pulp until he left her head. She wasn`t going to have a creepy incubus in her dreams doing weird things to her. That was just not happening ever.</div>"
3036,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:49:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">All three brothers shivered, ""you do not want to know what a succubus demons are like don't ever try to they don't even care if your the same gender me and my brothers managed only to stay out of there grasp because of the focus on reality we had."" Luke and Jake nodded to that, ""though they kept trying really hard since we were the only ones not to be lured into bed by them.""</div>"
3037,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 02:59:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson shivered. ""Succubus are really creepy. They don`t haunt your dreams they like to get you in person. Either way not fun experiences with either race."" She said and looked at them. ""What are you guys wanting to become after going to the academy? I mean I know some people try to pull off being human and lead normal lives, which don`t really work, but what do you guys plan on doing?""</div>"
3038,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:02:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The brothers looked at each other and shrugged, ""it nevertheless was our idea to come here. Jake was the first to speak up, Luke and Alex nodded there agreement. ""We would've just been like any other pack though I think dad wanted us to be more than that so he sent us here despite our protests."" Alex finished, ""besides why do we need to know other races history we already know ours and the vampires along with some of the fae.""</div>"
3039,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:16:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Well it`s good to be aware of what the other races are. For instance Korra had no idea what kind of food I ate and then tried to offer me human food because she didn`t understand what ghouls ate. Mistakes like that outside the academy can become bad situations. I see why we have to learn it, even if we are learning our own races history other people in the class don`t know it."" Crimson explained to them.</div>"
3040,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:22:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">All the brothers shrugged to that, looking at each other before letting out. ""We rather fight that's like the only class me and my brothers like mostly."" Jake and Luke nodded, "" for the most part really while were going through lycan history don't be surprised if we fall asleep and still ace the test."" Luke had said it, ""were just ready to fight something really it's in our nature to fight and keep fighting demons had made us for one purpose to fight there war.""</div>"
3041,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:28:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I like the fighting the most too. It`s boring to stay in the classroom all day doing nothing but taking notes and listening."" Crimson agreed. ""Although you guys are lucky you can actually fight to full capacity. They won`t let ghouls use our Kagune because it requires us to have eaten."" She said and sighed pretending like it was upsetting that she couldn`t. On the other hand she was actually happy, if the school knew she half ghoul or anyone else did she could get into a lot of trouble. They`d kick her out of the academy almost immediately. Half ghouls were a threat and others were after them. They were a rare thing to come across and other ghouls were more than happy to take them out even if it was part cannibalism.</div>"
3042,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:37:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shrugged, and Luke and Jake looked to him. ""Me and my brothers do fight full capacity though no one lasts long enough for the fight to be interesting against us. You Korra or that fae have challenged us almost everyone in this school has and lost though we don't take it to our head though when we see mistakes we tell each other help each other get better day in and day out."" Jake and Luke nodded to that, he was pretty sure not many people saw there wolf forms they hadn't been forced to change in middle of a fight yet.</div>"
3043,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:42:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I wish I could fight like that. If I could I guarantee I could match you. My true strength just hasn`t been revealed yet. When they bring ghouls to this academy they starve us for three months to make sure you won`t go crazy on anyone. We also loose all of our strength in doing so though. Reasons why I work my ass off to be stronger every day so I can beat one of you guys one day without having to be at full capacity."" Crimson said determined. She wanted to become stronger. Her goal after graduation was to become a fighting trainer in a supernatural army. Even though humans tried to stay away from the other races wars still broke out between them.</div>"
3044,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:54:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smirked, ""well if you think you ever could take on one of us just find me I'll take you up on that offer."" He had a job in mind he was pretty sure his brothers did to the special task group in the supernatural army packs working together to take down enemies that threatened them. 

Luke and Jake looked at there brother surprised, but shrugged it wasn't that hard to see that Alex was ready for a fight so were they but they still got bored using there human forms it wasn't as fun as it was in wolf.</div>"
3045,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 03:59:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked at Alex and smirked. ""I`ll take you up on that big shot."" She said sassily and leaded back on her hands. ""The harder I train the stronger I`ll get. You guys have the strengths that come with being a lycan, if I can out match you it will prove that having abilities doesn`t always make you the better fighter. Which is something that needs to be proven.""</div>"
3046,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:03:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex raised an eyebrow, ""no I already know that it's how you use the advantage you have already and bury your opponent under it."" He said shrugging, then Luke spoke up ""plus no ones seen how we fight in wolf form so we have a huge advantage to that."" Jake started up after that, ""we'll see if you have the mind and skill set to defeat us if you do that's great that means we have to train harder to get where we want to be.""</div>"
3047,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:09:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I haven`t gone one on one against you guys in a long time. You`d be surprised at how much stronger I`ve gotten."" Crimson said simply. ""Fighting you guys in wolf form. Now that would be interesting. Too bad the rule about shifting is pretty strict around here."" She said and shrugged looking down at Korra. ""Although she`s the exception with the tiny cat form. Not very threatening.""</div>"
3048,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:12:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shrugged,""they only said were allowed to shift in a fight in the ring so we could shift at anytime in the ring but haven't found the need to do so in our fights so far."" Luke and Jake nodded, ""though I haven't taken you on since what freshman year Crimson?"" Jake eyes widened Alex just laughed slightly at his little brother reaction before shrugging. Luke remembered the fight when Alex came home he had told him in detail on what had happened.</div>"
3049,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:19:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson smirked. ""It's been over two years, even back then I could hold my ground against you. Just imagine how the fight would be now. I may be the first person to force you to shift."" She said confidently Knowing fully well it was anyone's game with how long it had been. For all anyone knew she could win this time around.</div>"
3050,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:21:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shrugged, ""maybe you can but remember this would be your first time and everyone's figurative time beside my brothers to watch me fight in wolf form so be ready for surprises."" He was grinning now, two years and now he was getting a rematch against Crimson. Luke and Jake looked at each other, ""this should be interesting.""</div>"
3051,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:26:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""No one's seen me fight much in the ring the past two years you yourself would be suprised. Why don't we settle this when we go to training? I'm sure Mr.Delkin will be more than happy to let us fight."" Crimson challenged looking at confidently. It was true, she had been training a lot more by herself only fighting someone here and there in class.</div>"
3052,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:33:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smiled a bit, ""alright then I think he would like to see you fight against one of his top students but I don't let that to to my head like other of these students would."" He held out his hand, ""we'll shake on it.""</div>"
3053,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 04:53:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson reached her hand out and shook his hand. ""Be prepared for a very good fight."" She said and leaned back just as the bell for the end of break rang and Korra woke up shifting back into human form. Korra yawned. ""I really needed that nap."" She said as Crimson stood up.</div>"
3054,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 19:12:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke Jake and Alex looked at each other before grinning. Getting up to go to training, the brothers changed into black workout t-shirts but kept there jeans on. Luke and Jake put there hands on Alex's shoulders, ""be careful don't use full strength see what she can do before you attack."" Alex looked at Luke, and nodded. Jake looked up at his older brother, ""don't shift unless your forced to in order to keep up."" Alex nodded, ""your the best brothers anyone could have."" He stepped into the ring, his shoes off just to get the feel of the dirt beneath his feet something familiar and put his mind at ease even with the fight on his mind.</div>"
3055,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 21:13:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson went to the locker room and changed out of the academy's uniform changing into a black tank top, black running shorts, and electric blue running shoes. She pulled her hair up into a pony tail and walked outside before going into the dirt ring. The rest of their classmates had changed and we're watching from the bleachers around it. ""Are both of you ready?"" Their couch asked and Crimson nodded. ""I've never been more ready in my life."" She commented looking straight at Alex.</div>"
3056,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 21:27:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex just grinned, ""more than ready coach."" His eyes on Crimson, the dirt beneath his feet kept him calm. In his own way, he wasn't that nervous both fists were up and ready. Waiting for Crimson would move, he just circled her though keeping his balance while he took the steps.</div>"
3057,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 21:53:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson stayed still not moving. She knew not to make the first move. You could tell a lot from a first move. For instance how stable the person is or even their attack power. Crimson was smarter than that, she'd made that mistake the first time they fought. Both of them had been younger and weren't as well trained but that didn't make much difference. By moving first he had been able to take her down.</div>"
3058,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 23:31:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smiled, ""seems like you learned your lesson last time Crimson."" Though he just kept circling, taking in what he could. Before stopping. His feet moved, though he kicked high. Before turning his body and bringing up the other foot while the other landed on the ground. His balance wasn't even off, he kept his balance through the move.</div>"
3059,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 23:35:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson watched him evaluating how much strength and power was behind the move. ""Seems like you've gotten stronger then last time."" She commented watching him closely. ""I'm not going to make the mistake of moving first like last time. That'd make me a fool."" Crimson stated standing her ground. Anything he was doing was intimidating her nor distracting her. The whole time she was keeping herself calm and collected.</div>"
3060,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-30 23:37:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex nodded, slightly before moving forward. Bringing an upper cut then swinging his other fist to her stomach. He wasn't putting his full power no need to when he didn't know what her power was yet so he kept cautious.</div>"
3061,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 05:27:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Before he could hit her Crimson spun around him to his back kicking his between his shoulder blades before moving back quickly. Her stealth seemed to have gotten a lot faster. ""Such a cheap move isn't going to work anymore, your going to have to try harder.""</div>"
3062,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 05:32:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex almost stumbled forward, kept word almost. Catching himself as he took his first step. Raising an eyebrow, to that before turning quickly though something most have not seen he flipped over her and locked both her hands behind her back. Making sure it was painful and ipuncomfortable. ""Like this I'm guessing?""</div>"
3063,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 05:41:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson relaxed her back and laughed.""You'd think,"" she said and flipped backwards her legs wrapping around his head bring him down to the ground with her using her arms as reins. He would never be able to see her true powers. Her body wasn't capable of even unlocking them right now.</div>"
3064,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 05:48:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex hit the ground with a grunt, he looked up at her grinning. Before his kicked her off of him, getting to his feet quickly once she was off. He had to be cautious both of them had trained hard and strong now they both had to be cautious not knowing what there opponents strength went to.</div>"
3065,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 06:05:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson quickly got up and hoped back away from him. She stared at him seriously. When she said she'd been training  hard she hadn't been kidding and he hadn't exactly stopped either. Both of them were still pretty equally matched.</div>"
3066,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 16:51:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex just stared at her, his arms up and ready for any movement or attack. Not yet had he had to call the wolf or shift yet, but she might be the first person to ever making him shift. He stared at her, not moving he made the first move though she hadn't taken him down with it.</div>"
3067,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 16:59:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson started circling him placing one foot after the other. Her eyes watched him closely paying attention to only the fight alone. Any other aspect of the day was torn away from her mind. There was just him and her fighting in this ring. Slowly she made tighter circles to him till she was about seven feet away from him.</div>"
3068,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 17:13:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smiled, ""using werewolf tactics on that huh?"" He knew it because he and his brothers had done it multiple times before coming here. With only three peopl it was still quite affective if your opponent didn't know what you were up to. Though he did, his feet moving himself in a circle as he watched her. Balanced and not over taken step, as he watched her close in.</div>"
3069,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 18:08:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Just because lycan mainly use them doesn't mean I can't."" Crimson said with a smirk before running at him. Although instead of hitting him she used his shoulder to flip over him before kicking his feet out from under him. She then used her fist to knock him away by his back while he was falling.</div>"
3070,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 18:27:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex grunted, he knew he would have a bruise there. Though by the end of the fight it wouldn't be there anymore, his hands caught him pushing himself back to his feet. He was on his feet faster than most people, with that he kicked her in the chest his fist swinging and hitting her stomach before she could fall back. He jumped back watching her.</div>"
3071,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 18:34:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson fell to the ground her lungs heaving for air. When she finally got it she stood up coughing she glared at him. ""That was a dirty move. If your not going soft anymore then I'm not either."" She said and got into a defensive position her chest hurting like hell from that move. The bruise that was forming there healed up before it could form visibly.</div>"
3072,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 18:42:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex laughed, ""who said I was going soft on you?"" He shook his head, before he darted forward an upper cut coming before he reversed it his fist now going for her side. While his other hand went for the uppercut his other hand had reversed.</div>"

""I'm a lot faster then I used to be, your going to need more than strength to take me down."" She said as she jumped away from him getting back into defense.</div>"
3074,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-01-31 20:05:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex grunted, his face twisting in pain. Before it stopped, his brothers winced. He picked himself up, ""so speed and strength huh? Well I can't do that unless being in wolf form."" He smirked slightly, before he shifted a black and white wolf black on the top half and white on the bottom half looked back at her. He got into a defensive position, amber eyes watching her carefully.</div>"

She stared at him, ""so little puppy we going to stay here all day or give a real fight?"" Crimson mocked him trying to rile him up. She knew he my or may not go for it but this fight was becoming rather boring to her up to this point.</div>"

He ran forward, his speed had increased a lot with the extra weight he had gone. Not bing as slow anymore he jumped his claws connecting with her shoulder. Before he landed on them a few feet away he turned to look at her.</div>"
3077,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 02:17:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson flew backwards flipping in the air so she slid on her feet before dashing forward. Her fist connected with his jaw using her arm that hadn't been scratched before kicking him swiftly to the side of the head knocking him to the side. She then rand at him getting on to his back before hooking her arms around his neck.</div>"
3078,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 02:23:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex growled, feeling her arms around his neck. He knew what she was going to do, with that he quickly rolled over onto his back his head leaning forward. Then flying back swift and hard hitting her head in a backwards head butt. He quickly got to his paws again. His claws connecting with one of her legs.</div>"
3079,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 02:28:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson grimaced bit dazed as his claws grippped her leg. She quickly shook it off as best as she could adrenaline starting to pump through her. This had actually been what was was hoping for. With her other leg she kicked him on his underbelly before twisting and locking his head with her legs putting her hands on the ground and twisting his head down on to the earth in a quick fashion that wouldn't hurt his neck but head and the rest of his body.</div>"
3080,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 02:31:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex growled, frustrated. Looks like he would be forced to use the I between form no one knew about except his brother. Shifting again, his clawed hand grabbed her leg. Growling as he got them off of his, throwing her to the ground getting to two feet. His legs pumping him forward, both clawed hands grabbed her arm putting himself under her he yanked to where it would hurt her arms.</div>"
3081,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 03:06:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson let out a cry of pain before moving and biting his arm hard only letting go after he had let her go and had drawn blood. She jumped away holding her arm. It made her happy that she was seeing his true form. Pushing him to see what his full power was. If she could match him in this form then she knew she had gotten better. Getting into a defensive position she stared at him.</div>"
3082,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 03:10:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Amber eyes looked at her, his head tilted. Alex shook his head before he stumbled, something was wrong he knew that much. His breathing became ragged as he was to weak to hold himself up, he fell to the dirt. Shifting back to human form, Luke and Jake stared wide eyed at there brother. Before vaulting over the railing of the bleachers ignoring the mr. Delkins cry against it, they made it to Alex's shaking form in the dirt. Luke took one long breath before he looked at Jake a silent agreement went between them as they both helped there older brother to his feet.</div>"
3083,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 03:28:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson immediately stopped what she was doing when she saw him fall to the ground. Something was very wrong and she didn't know what. A bite like that should be nothing to a lycan. It should heal up rather quickly actually. ""What's happening?""</div>"
3084,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 03:34:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke had Alex's arm over his shoulder, while Jake was getting his other arm over his shoulder. ""Somebody in the locker room nicked him with wolfsbane, but we don't know how large the dose is."" With that, they started helping there brother out of the ring and started heading toward the nurse.</div>"
3085,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 04:13:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson went wide eyed wondering who could have done that. Wolfsbane or any other kinds of drugs weren't aloud on campus. She honestly had no idea what to think of all of this. Going over to the wall of the ring she jumped over it and was going to leave but Mr.Delkins stopped her. ""Ms.Daniel you can't leave the area."" He said strictly and she looked at him. ""I just full on attacked a drugged person. I myself am injured and I need coffee. If you stand in the way we are going to have a problem."" Crimson said glaring at him.</div>"
3086,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 04:18:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke and Jake raised an eye brow, but said nothing. They kept helping there brother to the nurse, there pace was slow Alex stumbled every few feet. If they weren't holding into his arms he would've already been sprawled on the floor. Jake and Luke looked at there brother worriedly, they didn't say much which was odd for anyone who knew them they usually didn't speak when they were worried for one of them.</div>"
3087,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 04:34:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Mr.Delkins looked down at her like she was crazy before sighing. ""Fine, but you need to go to the nurse as well. Your injuries could be worse than you think."" He said giving in. ""I was already planning on it."" Crimson said and walked off to the coffee shop on campus. She got a cup of coffee and rank it trying to calm herself down. Once she had spent a good fifteen minutes by herself she walked to the nurse going inside once she got there. She looked around the room at all the different beds with curtain walls surrounding all of the ones being used.</div>"
3088,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 04:40:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake looked up from his brother as he heard the door to the nurses office opening, though he and Luke didn't really care much. He sighed, watching his brother trying to fight off the wolfsbane. He swore if he found the he person who did this. Shaking the thought off, he sat in a chair no matter how much mrs Hartman wanted him and his brother to leave they wouldn't. 

Luke should've realized something was wrong the moment Alex rubbed the back of his neck. He didn't even rub the back of his neck, sighing he was sitting on the floor he knew Korra had been in gym class though he didn't know about sera to much. A slow breath escaped his lips, he didn't like hearing his brother groan in pain as he tried to fight off the wolfsbane.</div>"
3089,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 05:08:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson asked the nurse where Alex was and walked back there once the nurse tested to make sure she wasn't drugged either. Even though it was highly unlikely she was anyway the only drug that really afacts a ghoul is a drug with no name. If it enters a ghouls body though they loose the ability to use their Kagune, then their bodies physically become weak and can be cut like a human's body. The drug leaves them utterly and hopelessly weak and unable to move.  Once she walked back there she pushed the curtain aside and looked them. ""What's the news on him?""

Korra ran into the room in cat form and jumped on Luke's lap. She sat down and looked at all of them having escaped the class by transforming. Korra really didn't care what kind of trouble she ever got into. It was more action now consequences later.</div>"
3090,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 05:15:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake raised his head from it's resting place on the back of the chair, his eyes not leaving his brother. ""It's the waiting game now we can't do much for him except keep his body from over heating while he fights off the drug itself."" He set his head back on his arms, watching his brothers still form.

Luke looked down at Korra, he gave a smile smile. Though it was quickly replaced with a frown when he looked to his brother. He was glad for the attention or people caring about them, all three of them didn't really have any friends they only had each other really.</div>"
3091,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 05:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson nodded and sighed. ""I feel horrible,  if I had known he was drugged I would have never gone into the ring. I can't imagine how intense our fight was is making it any easier on his body."" She said and bit her lip wanting to honestly just punch something. They'd been classmates for such a long time and having been able to fight him again was kind of a thrill but who ever drugged him was going to be killed now. If it wasn't by his brothers it'd be by her.</div>"
3092,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 05:31:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke looked up from his brother to crimson, ""he didn't know wolfsbane doesn't kick in from the start it spreads through the body before lycans start feeling the affect if he knew he would've called it off then went straight to the nurse but he didn't."" His hand was absentmindedly stroking Korra's head.

Jake nodded his agreement, ""his body will recover, but we don't know how long he will be out for. It usually depends on how large the dose he had been nicked with was, someone wants us out of the way going after the oldest first.""</div>"
3093,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 14:58:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson nodded and sat down on the floor against the wall. She hadn't changed back into her uniform earlier, none of them had. Seeing if Alex was okay was the first priority. Korra purred as Luke petted her rubbing her head against his hands her tail moving back and forth slowlyly before giving a small meow. Crimson looked at Alex and sighed.  ""Whoever did this is going to pay.""</div>"
3094,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 16:42:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake looked at her, ""I know I know that already messing with one of us is really a bad choice if you leave the other two still in fighting condition. Plus for once we get to protect Alex like he's protected us."" He winced slightly as another groan escaped his brothers lips.

Luke, clenched his jaw when a groan came from his brother. ""There going to pay alright,"" his hand kept petting Korra's head. He sighed, nodding to Jake who got up and got the rag wet again. Placing the cold rag back on Alex's forehead, before sitting back down in the chair.</div>"
3095,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 19:57:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Why would someone want to poison him anyway. No student at this school should have a problem with him that I know of."" Crimson said sighed frustrated. Korra looked up at Luke and meowed before transforming still sitting on his lap her arms around his neck. ""I smelt someone with it in the stands. Only faintly though, they had multiple drugs on them. I didn't find it significant to look through though. It was definitely someone in the stands.""</div>"
3096,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 20:10:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake frowned, ""some of the people in our other classes do I don't know what he did to piss them off though. I usually, know why or how he pissed some people off."" He sighed, he was so damn confused why would they make there move on him now of all times.

Luke looked at Korra, ""there probably long gone by now our first priority was to get Alex here."" He shook his head, slightly frustrated with himself he should have kept a closer eye on Alex. He knew his older brother had made enemies, through the two years that he had been here.</div>"
3097,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 20:17:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I never thought any of those guys would hurt him like this though. Any higher of a dosage and they would have killed him."" Crimson said and looked at Korra. ""Korra do you remember what they looked like?"" She asked and Korra shook her head. ""The smell was throwing me off on who it was. We have training with another class so I don't know if I'd be able to figure it out anyway. Seraphina might know though. They were carrying catnip and it killed my sense of smell after awhile. Seraphina had bumped into them while we were walking here though. The person burned her with iron."" Korra explained and looked at Jake. ""Jake do you think you could go talk to Seraphina?""</div>"
3098,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 20:23:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake frowned at the thought, he looked to Luke. Who nodded, ""I'll keep an eye on him don't worry about it."" A small smile made it to his face, getting up from the chair. Shifting and running through the halls, not caring what the teachers said letting sera's scent lead him to her. Once he saw her, shifting he walked forward. ""Sera I need to talk to you. Alright, it's about my brother Alex.""

Luke looked to Alex, ""when one of us is hurt were a little reluctant to leave them Alex is the oldest and has always been by Jacob's side. Both of us don't want to leave his side if we have to.""</div>"
3099,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 20:47:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera had been walking to the library her working hours starting at this time. She looked at Jake. ""Is this about the person Korra saw?"" She asked still feeling the burn on her arm. The iron had scrapped across her skin but stung just as bad a bleeding cut. ""I can tell you more about it but you'll have to talk to me while I'm working in the library. ""

Korra nodded, ""understandable, you guys never leave each others sides even though you aren't in the same grade. You guys are like a mini pack."" She commented and Crimson nodded in agreement before standing up. ""I'm going to go see if I can find any clues as to who the person was. If we can catch them then we can make sure no one else is drugged or harmed."" She said and with that left the nurse's office.</div>"
3100,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 20:57:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke nodded, his thanks. Before looking at Korra, ""were family we don't leave each other sides if we can help it. Even though were a year apart it doesn't really matter to us were still equal no matter what happens.""

Jake nodded, ""yah the person that Korra saw. Korra said that you were burned with iron, my brother Alex somebody in the locker room nicked him with wolfsbane a large enough dose to force him to shift back into human form.""</div>"
3101,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 21:12:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra nodded and grinned. ""You guys really are a unique trio. Most siblings fight a lot but you guys are just always so protective and playful with eachother. It's kind of sweet actually."" The cat demon said and looked at him curiously. ""Can I ask you a question?""

Sera walked into the library and went behind the front desk. She put her stuff on the desk and got situated before sitting down. Pulling up the sleeve on her uniform there was a harsh burn on her arm around her mid forearm. The veins around it were dark purple under her skin. ""I slid past someone on the way to the ring from the locker room and a piece of iron burned my arm. The normal reaction for fae skin is to burn when touching iron. If it enters our blood stream this happens and it turns our vein blackish purple. The person that scratched me. They were weirdly wearing a hpodie over their uniform with the hood pulled up. It was definitely a guy though. Probably about five seven in height.""</div>"
3102,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 21:16:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded, ""yah some guy in the locker room Nicked him with the stuff. Though we don't know how long he'll be out for, this has been a long time since we had to deal with the drug or silver for this whole matter.""

Luke looked back down at Korra, ""go ahead."" He wondered what she was going to ask him. Not a lot of people got close to the brothers much less asked them a question. He didn't mind being asked though, it was a nice change in a day.</div>"
3103,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 22:16:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera nodded and thought about it. ""I heard Mr.Delkins say he was going to have a search done across campus to see if anyone had any with them. My guess it had to have been given through an outside source because students can`t leave campus until the end of a semester or unless give special permission. It makes the search a bit shorter if you think about stuff like that."" She explained.

""Why didn`t you guys tell me to go away earlier today? Most lycans don`t like to be seen near a cat demon never mind talk to one. They find us inferior and too unserious in nature."" Korra asked curiously her ears going down a bit on her head while giving a nervous smile. To be honest she didn`t have many friends at all at this school, and no close friends. Most people found her annoying and didn`t want to be around her.

Crimson walked through one of the older buildings on campus. This building didn`t have cameras, one reason why she met with the stupid idiot here. Opening a door she slid it open walked in and closed it again before looking at the sophomore sitting on a desk. This classroom was abandoned, most of them were. This building was mostly used for clubs. ""What the hell do you think your doing?"" She scolded and the guy cringed. ""I never told you to drug him. That wasn`t part of the plan. Now I have to clean up your mess and your paying for it."" She said and he looked at her scared. ""How am I paying for it?"" He asked and Crimson walked closer to him using the knife that was on his waist to cut his cheek. Her right eye glowed red in response to the smell and sight. ""I`m starving, what do you think?"" She said and his eyes widened. ""I`m only half human though!"" He yelled and she laughed. ""So am I, your point?""</div>"
3104,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 22:41:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">(Just gonna time skip to where Alex is back on his feet after Luke answers her question and the fight will probably break out that night)

Luke looked to her, ""we welcome company when we can. Not the company that hurts us, plus were not as serious as most people think we are Korra. Some things are exaggerated about our, kind it always has been.""

(Time skip)

Alex woke up, though his vision wasn't blurry like it had been. He heard shuffling before he saw Jacobs face, ""I see your awake and better. Well ever since you went down there has been other attacks against other students for the past few days everyone's on edge there tension thick enough that I can cut it with a butter knife come on I'm sure Luke's worried about you.""</div>"
3105,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 22:51:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson was sitting on the floor next to Alex`s bed both her eyes blue. For the last few days she`d been there only leaving to sleep, or what people thought was sleeping. She had actually been using her Kagune on the other students trying to cause mass mayhem. None of them had seen her or knew what had been used to attack them. It was hard but in order to cover up the idiotic move of that stupid sophomore she had too. She stood up after hearing Alex talking. ""I`m glad your finally awake,"" she said looking at him worriedly. Crimson honestly didn`t understand most of her emotions. All she knew was that she didn`t feel many and since she became half ghoul nothing has made her happy. Most of her emotions were faked ones, and she had gotten them down to a T. There were over thirty people in this school who were in the organization she was in, Freedom. Though she was the leader of everyone positioned here. Most of them were half human like herself hidden in the system so no one knew about them.</div>"
3106,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 23:05:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">After Jake helped him sit up, he looked to crimson nodding. ""I feel like hell,"" Jake laughed ""of course you do come on we need to get moving by what I hear the lycans want to see you up and moving they've been on edge for a while now since you went down."" Alex nodded, ""where's Luke?"" Last I heard a fight had broken out between vamps and lycans down in the lounge Luke's there."" 

Alex looked to his brother, ""and you didn't tell me?!?!"" Jake swallowed, watching his brother run out of the nurses office and toward the fight. His legs moving him, seeing more than vamps teaming up on lycans that's when he saw the half humans. Growling he got between the two, ""stop this now! Whatever you think we did we didn't so shut up and sit down.""</div>"
3107,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-01 23:47:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson ran after them getting to the area looking around franticly like she was surprised by all of this. The cameras on the campus had been taken out an hour ago. They were getting no security to the campus. The government in the city had already been bombed this morning and the whole area was going into mass chaos. She put on a mask over her facer that she had hidden till now. The mask covered her whole face and her normal eye, only leaving her red eye visible. Her hair was also tucked into it so there was literally no way to identify her. All of the half breeds had masks on after they saw her. Each of them taking out one, every mask looking different. She saw Jake in the area and walked over to him protecting him from a vampire before getting closer to him from behind. She stabbed him in the back with a silver knife covered in wolfsbane. This had been her plan to create mass chaos within the academy before angering one of the top students. Sure she actually liked Alex, more than most people thought, but she had a duty to Freedom to make sure their plan happened in any way necessary.</div>"
3108,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:05:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake's face contorted in pain, Alex looked at the masked figure. Though he didn't get the chance, to attack the masked figure before his brother Luke was in his in between form already on her. No one knew Luke's true strength till now slamming the figure into the wall by the throat he growled.

Alex got to jake's body, worriedly looking between his brothers face and his hands already working on taking care of the bleeding. ""Pack three through five attack at will see what they have on them then come back here now!"" His voice shook slightly, though the lycans obeyed the order.</div>"
3109,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:11:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The half breeds immediately started attacking with different drugs on all of the students taking more down then were actually fighting. Crimson`s eye glowed red as she was taken to the ground. Red wings came from her back formed by shards looking like blood while two red whips came out as well and wrapped around Jake`s neck chocking him while the wings hit him with multiple daggered shards. The whole time Crimson was calm and collected. She had to thank the academy because of them she was strong without her Kagune but now with it she was unbeatable. While she was slowly choking it didn`t matter when her bloodstream itself had wolfsbane in it. It was now in Jake`s body with multiple injections by the shards.</div>"
3110,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:20:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex clenched his jaw, ""shit shit shit shit."" He couldn't allow his wolf to take over, waving over two lycans. ""Get him out of here now,"" they nodded hauling his brother out. Wincing slightly when he heard Jake groan in pain, before walking over to Luke looking at the figure removing the mask. His eyes widening, he shook his head taking a step back ""Crimson?""</div>"
3111,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:32:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson released her kagune from Jake`s neck and got to her feet as she was let go. She looked at Alex. ""I didn`t want you to find out but I guess it`s too late for that. You removed my mask."" She walked forward and took her mask from him. ""Please stay out of our way Alex. You don`t want to get caught up in this, they`ll kill you."" Crimson`s wings reformed from the missing shards and she slipped her mask back on before jumped into the air landing on top of the wall above. ""We are Freedom and we`ll destroy this sickening peace you all find normal!"" She yelled across the campus. All of the masked figures yelled in agreement almost every normal academy student lying on the ground drugged. ""Let this be a warning not to stand in our way!"" She yelled and with that jumped away as all of the other masked figures left too. Korra and Sera had just made it to the battle to hear all of this. Once she was gone Sera ran over to Luke and used her fae power to heal his most threatening injuries although the wounds transferred on to herself. It was no obvious why she didn`t fight in the ring during class. Korra ran over to Luke looking at him and all the other students before her red eyes glowed blue and in blue fire she transformed into her demon form. She jumped and ran up the wall running after Crimson in heated rage.</div>"

He didn't care at that moment, he started to run just for him to hear a gun shot then pain exploded into his side. He stumbled and fell to the floor, curling up on himself in pain. Luke saw the figure going toward his brother, a gun loaded with silver running and his claws hitting the vampires face. Sending him flying back, he looked down at his brother. Picking him up still in his in between form he started running toward the nurses office.</div>"
3113,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:52:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera moved to Jake and healed his wounds before falling on to the ground in pain. The wounds would heal soon enough but for the moment they were all over her. Once Korra heard the gun shot she stopped and ran back jumping across the wall and on to the grass below. She ran over to Sera and shifted back in more flames she kneeled down next to her friend and looked at Jake before looking around for Luke and Alex. Not seeing them anywhere she picked up Sera and looked at Jake. ""Help me I can`t carry her by myself.""</div>"
3114,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 00:55:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake groggily opened his eyes, his body sore. Before he pushed himself into the sitting position. Hearing Korra, he got sera into his arms being as careful as he could. Before he started running laying her on one of the beds in the nurses office, he sat by her bed and waited while Luke frowned at Alex's prone form. They had him bandaged up, though he couldn't worry any less.</div>"
3115,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:29:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra sat in a chair between both beds the curtain between them having been pulled back. ""Did anyone see who the person behind that mask was and where is Crimson?"" She asked looking at Jake and Luke. Her and Sera hadn`t been there to see the person they thought was good turn out to be the worst out of all of them. Half of the schools students had been taken out today in less than an hour. The whole city was taken out in one day by one group. The fact that no one had had time to even prepare was just how quickly it had happened. There had been no warning and nothing to protect them.</div>"
3116,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:35:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke looked to Korra, ""Crimson is working for that group I saw it even in my rage I could clearly see Crimson's face to say I was shocked was an understatement I don't even know if that shock to Alex will put him into a coma we don't need that none of us do for that matter.""</div>"
3117,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:47:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra looked at him shocked not even knowing how to respond. ""But Crimson was one of us, she was becoming one of our friends. Her and Alex have known each other so long and she was working as something so horrible this whole time."" She said shocked trying to process how Crimson could be apart of something so horrible never mind be the leader of all those masked people, before her eyes widened with realization. ""She wasn`t going to find the person who poisoned Alex that day, she was going too that person when she left. She ate some of that person to give her her powers back."" The cat demon suddenly felt like she was going to throw up at the thought all of it overwhelming her.</div>"
3118,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:52:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke nodded, slowly putting his arms around the cat demon. ""Shhh Korra calm down, get a hold of yourself."" A small sigh escaped his lips, he wouldn't let Crimson anywhere near his brothers if he could help it with what she did to Jake was bad enough. Jake looked at Sera's still form, his chin resting in the palm of his hand.</div>"
3119,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:57:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra grabbed on to him as if her life depended on it as she buried her face in his chest shaking uncontrollably. So many people have died today and are going to die today. There was no way all of the students at this academy could be saved along with the people in the city. It wasn`t going to happen. They were lucky that Alex and Sera were even in here. ""This isn`t right! Why would anyone not equal rights between all of the races.""</div>"
3120,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 01:59:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke sighed, rubbing her back in a comforting manor. ""I don't know Korra I don't just get a hold of yourself first figure out your bearings get your emotions under control first then think."" His hand kept moving up and down her back while his other arm was still firmly around her waist.</div>"
3121,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 02:06:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra took deep shaky breaths trying to get herself under control. For a demon it was natural that she would react badly to this. Demons weren`t nice in general but to their own race they hated everyone. Alliances were the only way they didn`t kill each other. As a child Korra herself was hurt pretty bad by other demons, mostly abused by a dog demon who her parents had an alliance with. Being at this academy with some many equal rights made her extremely happy because she could be herself.

(Timeskip of about three months? I have a plan.)</div>"
3122,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 02:09:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">(Alright then)

Even with three months to heal, he should have known that bullet had shattered. Alex swallowed, they had to let it fester out which was agonizing. Though it had finally come out after three months, though the skin around the bullet had to be treated with healing salve and he had to wear bandages for a few weeks.</div>"
3123,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 02:33:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra stood in the ring looking at Luke. ""I really don`t want to fight you."" She said honestly and Mr.Delkins sighed. ""Korra both of you have to fight, if you don`t neither of you can officially join Alex, Jake, and Sera to form your team. This is the last day you guys have to officially graduate into the attack force."" He told her. Korra sighed and reluctantly transformed into her cat demon form after blue flames had consumed her. 

Sera looked at Alex. ""How is your wound holding up? I can`t heal it more than I already have. The bullet shards have to come out by themselves."" She said only being able to be on their team in the first place because of her healing abilities. As their team being full of top ranking students in the ring having a healer on their team would be a useful tool. Sera had also been trained to use her fae powers through a specially developed bow staff. The bow was for firing arrows that transformed her healing powers to energy consuming ones and the staff part of the bow being able to heal at long distances. The arrows were also made of iron to get her used to being around it.</div>"

""Then imagine me as another demon that wants to hurt you,"" he saw her shift. Shifting himself he got into a defensive position, waiting for the attack that was about to come at him.

Alex shrugged, ""it's coming out slowly giving me a rough time a bit but nothing I should suspect."" Sighing, his mind wondering to Crimson and wondering why she did this. Shaking the thought away, they were making there way toward Jake who was in the stands watching the fight.</div>"
3125,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 02:53:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra thought through her moves and ran at him attacking him while biting his forearm. The flames on her body burning him, because her flames were blue they were hotter than orange fire but not as hot as the hottest which was white. Her`s was a step below white. Her claws pinned him down to the ground.

Sera nodded in response as they got into the stands and she sat down watching as Korra bit Luke. ""So she`s finally actually fighting him. She really is a strange one, although her intentions are good."" She commented watching the fight with interest. She`d have to heal Korra after this so she hoped they didn`t go too far with this fight.</div>"
3126,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 02:57:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke growled slightly, biting back a whimper at the flames. He rolled over pinning her to the ground, growling giving her a chance to yield before he would have to attack. He always had a small weakness for Korra to say the very least.</div>"
3127,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 03:07:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra looked up him and untransformed looking up at him before grinning. Mr.Delkins sighed and wrote it down on his clipboard. ""I`m counting it, I`m tired of doing the paperwork and you guys need to be out to the field this afternoon."" He said and with that looked at all of them. ""You guys are now an official team and you need a name. Do you guys have any ideas for one?"" He asked. ""What about Feardom?"" Korra asked as she stood up from the ground after Luke got off of her.</div>"
3128,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 03:19:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The lycan brothers nodded to that, ""I like that."" Alex said as he jumped over the railings of the stands Jake following close behind him. ""It seems appropriate since we have mostly the main top students in fighting a healer and Korra."" Luke said as he finished the shift standing to his feet. Jake nodded his agreement, he was ready for a fight for the most part.</div>"
3129,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 03:28:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra jumped over the railing as Sera went around and walked up to the others. Korra looked at them. ""Hey I'm pretty strong too. I just don't like attacking you guys."" She stated feeling a little under appreciated. ""Well we had to have you guys fight each other. We need to make ensure you can attack each other if someone turns traitor."" Mr.Delkins explained and wrote down their name. ""Well Feardom. You guys need to be at the front gate by noon, you have one hour. I would suggest eating and then getting suited up and ready to go.""</div>"
3130,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 03:38:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex nodded, looking to Korra. ""Sorry my minds on a lot of things, plus your not under appreciated we need the numbers we need someone to be able to keep somebody else back in an attack if anyone can protect Luke it's you Korra."" With that he started walking to go get his food, daggers already secured to his waist.

Luke nodded as he watched his brothers form, ""he's right you know your not under appreciated and don't think that were glad to have you apart of the team."" Jake nodded his approval as well, ""it's just who wouldn't be as confused as he is to why Crimson would do this.""</div>"
3131,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 03:52:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra's ears immediately went down on her head at the mention of Crimson. ""I wonder how she's doing. I know she's the enemy but I can't help wondering. I wonder if she has a good reason as to why she joined them. There has to be one. She doesn't seem like the kind of person to join something like that at all, although who's to say we even knew who the true Crimson was.""</div>"

He had his hand on her shoulder, with a sigh he started walking. With the three months the three brothers had changed. Luke, Jake and Alex were a bit more serious than they were before not as much of a carefree trio anymore. Jake followed behind Luke, after getting hit hard three months back he's become more quiet only saying things when he needed to.</div>"
3133,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 04:19:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera walked next to Jake the fae girl was as quiet as usual. She hadn't changed much over the last few months. If anything she was less anitsocial than before taking time to actually hang around all of them. Korra like the boys was a bit more serious than before. She was also a little less bubbly which in her case wasn't a good thing. Her happy go lucky additude was good thing for her to have and seemed that she'd fallen into a bit of a depression.</div>"
3134,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 04:26:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke stopped walking, Jake raised an eyebrow as he walked by. Luke just waved his hand forward, Jake nodded his understanding walking by sera's side. The only person beside his brothers to get him to talk was sera he didn't know how but she did. Luke looked back at Korra falling in step beside her. ""Everything's going to hell and I already hate it, me and my brothers have changed and it's not for the best for the most part being serious can be a good thing but it can also be a bad thing in some parts.""</div>"
3135,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 04:35:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera walked next to Jake. ""What do you think of all this?"" She asked curiously and simply. She only said stuff that had a meaning to it. Random nonsense just seemed like you were talking just to talk. Korra looked at him and nodded. ""I wish things were how they were three months ago. When none of this violence was going on. We're teenagers, how does any of this seem right. We are being put on the front lines because everyone else was wiped out. I wish none of us had to have changed this drastically."" Korra said and sighed. ""I honestly don't even understand how Alex hasn't broken yet. The rest of us have each other to go too, we have one person we go to in our group and we tell them what's going on with us. He doesn't have a person like that though.""</div>"

He's changed I know that, I dont know if it's for the better or for the worst though.""

Jake looked to Sera, ""I wish things could go back to what they were. We were carefree we didn't have to worry about any of this stuff, all we had to worry about was our grades and what we would do once we got out of school.""</div>"
3137,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 04:50:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra sighed. ""I honestly don't know if it's good or bad either. I can't tell anything anymore really. I barely know how to even cheer myself up anymore.  I used to be able to keep a positive mind set and even be able to make other people happy but I just feel like I'm broken now."" She said honestly. Sera nodded. ""Both of us are freshman, we thought that would be the biggest of our problems but it ended up being the least I portent thing. Getting into all of this fighting and stuff is difficult. ""</div>"
3138,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 04:58:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded slightly, ""I know it is some people aren't cut out for it some are don't know what's what for me and my brothers."" Luke looked to Korra before stopping her, ""your you you're not broken and never say that about yourself you're far from broken Korra. Though if I didn't have you to talk to I know I would be broken."" 

Alexander kept his hands in his pockets sighing, shaking his head to get his thoughts from the girl he had known for two years or so he thought. Crimson had almost killed Jake and that alone he wasn't to happy about.</div>"

It's just not how I am."" She said simply. Korra looked at him nodded. ""I understand, I just I don't know how to deal with war and stuff like this. I'm a demon, I'm hardwired to be a killer and I've never been one. Now that we are being forced into this war it seems like I'm being forced to be the monster I'm supposed to be. That's why I say I feel broken.""</div>"

""You are not a monster Korra if anything I am my kind was made to fight and nothing else to not have any feeling a for those we have attacked don't say your a monster not in front of me or anyone else."" Jake looked to sera, ""it doesn't matter if you can fight or not just having someone to talk to is enough. I may have changed but the only few people who can get words out of me is my brothers and you with you I just feel like nothing's wrong.""</div>"

Who do you think is the bigger monster?"" Korra said and took a deep breath. ""You seem to have more feelings than your supposed too, although that's the thing that went wrong when it came to your kinds design. You learned how to care and love others."" She said and smiled for once in three months while looking into his eyes. Sera smiled, ""the feeling is mutual. This whole thing doesn't feel like it's that bad when I'm with you.""</div>"
3142,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 13:17:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke smiled, ""our kind seems to like to do impossible things when we turned on the demons that created us they tried to find a way of reversing the feelings we have it didn't out so well for them."" He smiled a bit, sighing. Jake nodded slightly, ""it usually doesn't feel as bad as it does when you have someone to go to in all of this stuff.""</div>"
3143,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 13:48:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Yeah, our kinds don't exactly have a good history do they."" Korra said and laughed. ""Hey Luke, can we get some food?"" She asked her stomach growling. Some things never changed about her. 

""It does make it better if you do. I wonder how Alex is with Crimson turning traitor. I mean it was unexpected from all of us but he and her had been something of rivals for a long time hadn't they?"" Sera asked him.</div>"
3144,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 14:04:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke nodded, ""come on let's get some food in that stomach of your before it starts to eat itself."" He said with a laugh, a small smile graced his lips. Over the three months it had been hard to get a laugh or a smile from the three brothers.

Jake nodded, ""ever since the first fight there freshmen year they've only grown closer in the ring fighting on the same side if it was two against two. So yah in a way they were rivals and friends at the same time.""

Alex's arm was resting on his knee from his spot on the branch, there wasn't that many students either they were gone or they were home or out on the front lines. Sighing he shook his head, looking to the cloudy sky knowing it would rain but that didn't change the fact that they were still to go out there and fight.</div>"
3145,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 14:29:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra nodded and started walking towards the cafeteria need food really badly. All of this intense training was making her hungrier then usual. If they were going to fight all of them would be at their best health.

""It must not be too easy on him then. Having such a close friend turn out to be working for the wrong side. I wonder what Crimson's motive is for even joining Freedom. She seems smart there has to be some reason."" Sera said.</div>"
3146,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 14:35:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake shrugged, ""I don't know but I know one thing. I'm not letting her anywhere close to him after what happened three months ago. She almost killed me if it wasn't for you I would be dead. Alex would have blamed himself for my death, that I know for sure.""

Luke followed behind, Korra getting food. He looked to Alex up in the tree, no way would Crimson would come close to his brother after what she did three months ago. Sighing, his brother had changed, became more closed up except with the brothers.</div>"
3147,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 14:51:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I've studied Kagune's before but hers was a cross breed. I'm surprised I was able to heal you and Luke without killing myself. I hate to say it but Crimson was strong before her powers were unlocked and now she's even stronger with her powers unlocked."" Sera explained worried about if they faced off against her again.

Korra actually bought food from the cafeteria this time and sat down outside before starting to eat. The wounds she had taken in the fight were already completely healed without Sera's help. Although she also hadn't full on attacked him. Korra just wasn't the kind of person to attack people close to her.</div>"

""I'm not really that far surprised but she won't kill any of this group, or my brothers if I can help it. Even with, her Kagune my in between form might match hers. Though I already have trained solitary with that form so I might be able to."" Both brothers eyes widened, ""your going no where near her Alex no none."" Jake nodded his head with Luke, though Alex remained quiet with the whole idea shot down. A small sigh, escaped his lips before he shook his head.</div>"

She looked up at Alex. ""It wouldn't be wise to seek her out, although I hate to say it guys but Alex is the best option to fight her if we do run into her. She has somewhat of a reluctant additude to attack Alex with he intention to kill. If you think about it like that Alex should fight her"" She explained knowing fully well its not what Jake and Luke wanted to hear.</div>"

""Alright fine but you are not going to fight her alone if we do run into her."" Alex shook his head, ""no this is my fight she's already showed she's not going to hesitate killing you she will with me like she did three months ago."" Alex sighed, his mind wondering to what crimson was doing right now, he wondered if she heard the news about him getting shot. Even with him healing still, the bullets still had to fester out but it didn't get rid of his determination.</div>"
3151,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 15:55:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra looked at Alex curiously after finishing her food. ""Why are you so set on fighting her? I mean I know you guys were rivals and that she attacked Luke and Jake but you don't seem like the type for revenge.""

Crimson sat on the edge of a building her legs hanging off the edge. She looked out at the city. Smoke and fire were everywhere Ash coating the ground like a grey blanket. Everything looked dead and this was one of many that had been destroyed in the last three month. In the distance she could see the academy. A month ago someone had been bragging about how they had shot a lycan in the battle on campus. Now she wouldn't have found this strange but they mentioned mockingly how she hadn't attacked him. She had pinned the vampire to the wall in a matter of seconds demanding to know more about it before throwing the vampire across the room. Over the last three months she had grown colder. Now that she knew Alex had been injured she didn't know what to do. He probably hated her guts now and she didn't blame him. ""Crimson we need to go, the captain caught word that a unit is being sent to the 17th district at noon. He wants us over there."" A full blood hell hound demon told her. The demon was under her control in her unit with her being the leader. Getting up Crimson slipped on her mask her hair having been cut to a more medium length to make it easier to take on and off. Pulling up her hood she started walking for the door. ""Let's go,""</div>"

I want to know what motives she has to do this, and I want to figure out all of this crap."" Looking to the clock, he got up. ""Thirty minutes till we leave once your done here meet me at the gate."" Luke and Jake looked at there brother sadly, before sighing there brother had changed he's gotten more distant though not from there group but to other people.

Alex was leaning against the gate, looking up at the smoke rising from the town. What were the motives of freedom? Why in all nine bells would they do this? To him it felt like the war with the vampires had started all over again, except with other races. A small sigh escaped his lips, none of this should have happened. Somebody made this happen, they wanted all the races at war now the question why would they?</div>"

""Well all of us should got to our dorm rooms nd change into our gear. I'm reluctant to put on the outfit they gave me. They seem like they're treating me like an adult. Which I guess is what we all are classified as now. How are you guys uniforms?"" She asked curiously. ""Mine looks like something you would see on a mage in a video game.  Although I do like how easy it is to move in.""</div>"
3154,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 19:55:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake and Luke shrugged, ""it's basically like some guy you would see in a movie leather jackets white shirts, and combat boots it's understandable when you think about it though they let Alex stay in the clothes he's wearing now since he moves better in it."" Luke said, Jake nodded it was the same with his uniform though it was the same stuff they wore when they were with the packs.</div>"
3155,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 21:02:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra nodded understanding. ""Let's get suited up and meet back at the gate then."" She said and Sera followed her back to the girl's dorms. Each of them went to their own room and changed before going to the gate They had about five minutes at that point. Sera looked at Korra. ""You look like Cat Woman."" She pointed out and Korra's ears went down in embarassment. ""I know I do, this costume is weird."" She said and sighed as what she was wearing was pretty much a leather body suit that she had left not zipped up all the way. ""This was a cruel joke.""</div>"
3156,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 21:07:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake and Luke just finished up, getting into there clothing getting to the gate. Mostly they were black figures, with the dark sky it was easy to blend in. Luke looked to Korra, "" you don't look that bad I promise you don't."" There was honesty in his voice, Alex heard it shaking his head mentally he wished he had someone to open up to. ""Come on we need to get moving we don't know what's waiting for us out there we have to get to district 17 before dark or were at the disadvantage."" With that he started to jog his brothers following behind him.</div>"
3157,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 21:23:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Your only saying the because it's inappropriate."" Korra said and started jogging after them with Sera. ""This is going to take forever like this."" Korra said and shifted into her demon form getting down so Sera could carefully get on her back. After that she started running trying to make better time. Just jogging it'd take forever, they'd probably get there by nightfall at that rate.</div>"
3158,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 21:30:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The brothers looked at Korra, before all three smiled. They shifted a black and white wolf already beside Korra a black and grey wolf on the other side. While the brown wolf stayed behind Korra to provide support from the back. Getting to the 17th district in a few minutes all three brothers shifted. Looking at the crumbled buildings, and the ash that covered the ground. Before they started taking cautious steps forward. Alex up front, both daggers already in his hands.</div>"
3159,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 21:49:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked out the window down at them before looking at the half-fae that had drugged Alex and the one she'd bit a portion of his arm for it. ""You need to trade clothes with me. I have to trick them and they know what my mask looks like."" She said and he looked at her like she was crazy. ""What no,"" he said defensively. Crimson took off her mask and then her jacket before taking off her shirt. ""What the hell!"" The guy whispered and she looked at him. ""My clothes have my scent all over them. If you have my clothes they will think your me due to my scent on them. What you scared of seeing a girl in something that resembles a bikini?"" She asked and he sighed before reluctantly traded clothes with her. Crimson put on his mask. It was a dragon mask that also covered her hair. ""You aren't aloud to use your powers under any circumstance.  You will act like me but you won't talk and you will stay at the front of the group."" She instructed and he nodded before they walked out with the others to the main floor.
Korra shifted afree Sera got off of her and they walked din looking around carefully. Korra walked up a flight of stairs and looked at them. ""I can hear and smell people up there."" She said in a quiet voice and Sera nodded to her.
Crimson stood behind the fae boy waiting till they would get to the main floor. Once they did she had ordered the others to attack after she gave a very distinct cuethat the fae didn't know about. They were to attack everyone but Alex. She had other plans for him.</div>"
3160,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 22:01:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex kept moving at the same pace, both daggers in his hands. Looking around the street, it just seemed gone dead to him with everything and no movement. A sigh escaped his lips, seeing a tall building, he looked to the others behind him. ""no matter what happens even if I get taken down keep moving and keep low."" Jake and Luke started to protest, alex held up his hand silencing them. ""I promised dad to keep both you safe either of you die and I won't forgive myself, so don't I've made up my mind and nothing can change i."" Both brothers nodded relucently to that knowing full well. ""Alright then let's figure this out and get out of her alive,"" he pushed the doors open his brothers flanking him on either side.</div>"
3161,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 22:09:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The sight they were met with was the fae who looked like Crimson at the front of many people. Crimson knew this was where she'd be able to get Alex alone and have the rest of them distracted. None of the people in her unit would attack Alex only everyone else. Her unit was the only one in the building. The fae boy in front of her opened his arms showing confidence like as if she had seen old friends again. Crimson then gave the signal, the signal was the faes death, well her faked death. She used a gun on her waste and shot the fae boy in the head from behind. The rest of the unit ran at them while she just stared straight at Alex.
Korra watched and cried out when Crimson was shot in the head. ""Crimson!"" She screamed as she tried rushing towards the actual Crimson but was stopped by the other people in the unit. Having to fight them off. Sera watched in terror before starting to attack the people with her bow realizing they were at 8 to 1 in their group. They were hugely out numbered. The real Crimson ran off carrying the fae boy's body with her as she ran up a flight of stairs.</div>"
3162,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 23:14:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke and Jake watched before, they both cursed when Korra just started attacking without care. Alex yelled orders at them, ""go and watch there backs I got the figure!"" Both brothers nodded, watching there brother climb the wall of the stairs now able to bring out parts of the wolf at will climbing the wall onto the stairs getting on the stairs. He started running up them, following the figure close behind.

Luke kept anyone that was going to attack Korra off from behind, making sure to give her room to attack herself. Jake made sure to keep people at a distance from the front, every once in awhile he would check behind her seeing if anyone had been able to get past him.</div>"
3163,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 23:23:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson ran up to the roof of the building jumping up the staircases. She opened the door to the roof and walked out on to it turning to look at Alex while dropping the fae boy's body to the ground. She stil didn't speak wanting to see his reaction to what had just occurred to the fake her.

Korra shifted and attacked every person she could trying to take as many people down as possible. Sera shot arrows effectively knocking people out while healing the other while she could. It was difficult because it took a lot of energy from her.</div>"
3164,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 23:26:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex got to the roof, his eyes flicking to Crimson's body. A low growl came from him, the only thing that showed that was the wrong move on his blank expression. He got, his daggers out. Putting one step in front of the other, still that blank expression stayed on his face.</div>"
3165,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 23:31:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I thougot that would be your reaction."" Crimson said as she took off the  ask her red hair moving through the gusting air on the roof. ""If I hadn't tricked you I don't think your brothers would have let me see you. I'm glad your okay."" She said her voice not giving much away at all. Throwing the dragon mask on the ground she took the mask off of the boys head and sighed seeing the blood on it. Her right eye turned red revealing that she was half ghoul to him and not actually a full blood. Half ghouls were something of myth since they were almost never created, </div>"
3166,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-02 23:51:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex didn't relax, ""your glad that I'm ok?"" A humorless laugh left his lips, ""I'm far from being ok Crimson far from it."" One dagger went in the sheath at the back of his waist, ""that bullet shattered you know. The rest of it is still festering out."" His voice emotionless, this wasn't the same Alex she had known two years ago.</div>"

Franky I kicked that guys ass for more than one reason when I heard."" She said and sighed. ""It's only been three months and yet all of you seem different. They really trained you guys hard.""</div>"
3168,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 00:18:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex raised an eyebrow, ""the training I could handle so could my brothers. It's not the training that changed us, I actually welcomed it, it was that attacks you led on the academy that's changed us myself majorly because I had no one to talk to my brothers never really understood me. Anyway off topic, none of the training had changed us, it just helped us defend ourselves and other people."" His voice and face still emotionless he had gotten good at that over the last few months.</div>"
3169,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 00:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I did what I was ordered to do. I was ordered to make you angry and to let the academy know just how screwed everyone was. Since that day three months ago over two thirds of the country has been taken down. Pretty soon there will be full on war between the countries. The world will destroy itself and then it will be our job to build it back up."" Crimson said simoly being able to keep a poker face herself.</div>"

Both daggers were in the sheath now, hogue he didn't care. ""Crimson telling you now, your not the same person I met two years ago you've changed for the worst. I don't care what's going to happen, though I know one thing we will stop freedom which ever side you choose fine. Fine though telling you now, when you meet me agin on the same side your on now then you better be ready to kill me.""</div>"

""Do you think I want to be on this side? I don't have a choice in this. What I want they can only give me. If there was another way to get it then I would change in a heartbeat, but I can't leave when I'm so close."" She said and looked at him with a hard age her fists tightening in frustration.</div>"

""What exactly are you after give me that at least because my brothers are right I've become more distant to anyone outside our little group."" He folded his arms against his chest, his brown eyes locked on hers.</div>"
3173,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 00:49:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked into his eyes seriously with her own blue and red ones. ""They can make me human again. They can get rid of the ghoul side that turned me into this. That's why there are so many half breeds on this side. We all want to belong somewhere and we are sick of hiding what we are in order to be accepted by others.""</div>"
3174,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 00:53:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex frowned slightly, before sighing. Shaking his head, ""you know from what I've heard from you and some other guy on this side. I'm thinking that freedom, wants us supernatural a gone. It's the only way to do that is put the world into a big war."" His right hand slowly clenched, ""and if that's what you want fine to be human again to watch us fall by your hands fine. I guess then, I don't need this anymore if you wish that badly to be human again."" With that, he ripped the necklace from his neck. The necklace that Crimson gave him two years ago, ""he turned to leave just stopping with his hand on the knob he couldn't bring himself to turn it.</div>"
3175,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 01:03:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Well what am I supposed to do!"" Crimson yelled at him. Her cold hard expression finally breaking. ""It's obvious now that you don't care what happens to me, no one does. You have your brothers, you have family. So how could you honestly tell me what I'm doing is wrong when I have no idea if it is!"" Crimson yelled at him the action of breaking the necklace really having hurt her. ""I don't know what's good anymore and you of all people should know that. Becoming human again is the only way I can see people not shunning me away anymore. I don't like that I have to destroy the world in order to do it but I'm sick of being looked at like a monster from both sides no matter what I do.""</div>"
3176,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 01:11:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">In a matter of seconds, Alex had his hands on her shoulders. ""Don't you dare say that I do care about you I've been by your side for two years, and the family I thought you were happy enough when I said that you were apart of our family mine Luke's and jakes. You've never been shunned you were far from it at that school."" His grip tightened on her shoulders, ""your no monster either never say that never think that.

He took a deep breath, his gaze finally dropping to the floor. ""Being in Freedom is wrong they would destroy entire races just to have a world full of humans. They would kill me......my brothers......Korra and sera none of us would survive it. I care about you don't think otherwise."" Letting to of her shoulders, he bent down and picked up the necklace he was glad the clasp didn't break. Putting it around his neck again, ""the only reason I still fight and don't give in is because of you.""</div>"
3177,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 01:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""What do I do then? If I leave they'll kill me and if I stay I'll kill all of you."" Crimson said and sighed trying to figure this out. Glad he'd picked up the necklace again. Her hand fingered hers around her neck the half M on hers while his had the other half. ""I need to find a way to get away without being killed. They have drugs far beyond what you know. One shot into my body and they can kill me like a human without any struggle.""</div>"

This was going to be more difficult then he thought. Most of them knew the risk they had when they came to be in this army and her expecially being a higher up made her ten time more likely to be killed with the information she had. Looking down at the fae boy she bite his arm trying to keep her body strong for what she was about to do, after she cleaned her mask she put it on her red eye glowing. She walked into the building and jumped down the stairwell before looking at her unit. ""Anyone left get over here!"" She said and only five people came up to her. She sighed, ""you guys really have gotten strong.""

Korra yelled some thing and long the lines of. ""Let me go I can fucking walk"" and ""I need to kill the bastard who killed her."" As she was being carried away. While Sera just stayed quiet hoping they could get back to the academy with no trouble.</div>"

""Crimsons Alice and well the person that was shot I don't know who that was, but it was a set up to get me alone since she knew my brothers wouldn't let me anywhere near her."" A smile came acros his lips, ""I think she's realized her mistake we'll be seeing her soon I can promise you that. Though we need to get back to the academy, I have a little info one reed on it isn't much but it's some."" Luke and Jake nodded there understanding still having both girls in there arms.</div>"

""It was a set up."" She said and thought about before smiling looking at him. ""Your actually smiling! Alex is actually smiling!"" She yelled happily. Sera simply smiled, she knew seeing Crimson again would fix him. It was obvious to her that the two of them were miserable not being around each other. Anyone old see it. 
Crimson talked to them explaining everything. All of them nodded in agreement that they would go with her although she could tell the one full blood fae was reluctant too.</div>"
3182,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 14:14:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shook his head to that, ""sheesh Korra your like a little sister I've never had."" Luke snorted slightly, ""shut it Luke."" Luke smiled, ""looks like my older brother is finally back after three months."" Alex just shrugged to that. ""I'm not fully back, but I'm somewhat back at the very least,"" Luke nodded to that, before setting Korra back on her feet. Jake did the same with Sera, ""now let's get back to the academy.""</div>"

"" Korra said in a sarcastic voice shaking it off before shifting when she was put down. She bent down and Sera got on to her back. ""It's strange one what talking to her does to you. You two are really something strange."" Sera commented looking over at him. 

Crimson nodded and told them to follow her. She put on her mask and started walking before she felt a sharp pain on her back. In moments she was on the floor unable to move. ""No,"" she whispered as the fae looked at her. ""Looks like we have to torture you traitor.""</div>"

He backed up slightly, Jake and Luke looked at there brother confused. Before Alex bolted back toward the building, his gut was telling him something had happened to Crimson. Luke and jakes eyes widened, before they both looked at each other shifting and following there brother.</div>"

They had tied her to a chair and left her a real ghoul having to deal with the punishment of her betrail.
Korra ran after them Sera holding on tightly. ""What's going on!?"" Sera yelled looking at all of them before being quiet when they got back to the building. She looked around seeing nothing in the building but the bodies they had taken down. The sight made her want to throw up.</div>"
3186,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 16:15:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex looked around, a growl escaped his lips. Smelling the scent that led out of the building, he followed it his paws not making a sound on the ground. Getting to the other building itself, they were idiots not covering there scent. Grabbing his daggers. From the sheaths, throwing the knife at the guard in front if the building. He knew he was dead before he hit the ground. Grabbing the knife, his brothers flanking him. 

Getting against the wall, taking out any resistance they got. Holding up his hand, before nodding. Seeing two figures outside the basement door, throwing his knife stunning one as Jake went in for the kill. The vampire was on him, growling punching him in the face before his knife was in the vamps chest. Kicking the door open, a growl escaped his lips seeing Crimsons bruised and bloodied form.</div>"

Scars and wounds were everywhere on her, the biggest being a hole in the middle of her body. Although was a ghoul so she was alive even despite it. Blood was all over the place and the ghoul in front of her turned and looked at them. ""Well looks like fun times over."" He said and with that dagger lined whips came out from his back blood red. Him having activated his kagune. His eyes turned red and he walked forward confidently before both whips went straight for Alex at lightning speed.</div>"

Blood welled from the marks on his arms, the wounds already healing up. Getting on the move, he shifted jumping forward sinking his claws into claws into the ghoul. Ripping his arm off, blood counting his fur.</div>"

Korra got in there with Sera and Sera immediately started healing all of them before starting to shoot arrows at the goul. Korra ran at the figure waiting till one of the wipes go her before biting it her flames burning it. She stayed like this making sure not to let go even though she kept being forced into the ground or the thorns pierced through her skin. The ghoul screamed in pain as his arm was torn from his body. Using his fist it connected with the top of Alex's head.</div>"

Just for the whip to hit him again, and keep hitting him making him take steps back, his healing wasn't even getting the chance to heal him plus with the silver still in his side in wasn't helping. Luke had gotten the ropes off just before he was hit, grunting in pain forcing Jake to get in cover along with Korra and sera.</div>"

Crimson said looking up at the ghoul as he attacked her friends. The ghoul wrapped his kagune around Alex's neck. ""No, stop. I said stop!"" She yelled and the ends of her hair turned black before her kagune came from her back the daggered whips wrapping around the ghouls neck squeezing until eventually his head snapped and the ghoul fell to the ground.  Sera went to healing all of them using the energy from the last battle. Korra laid on the ground in human form unconscious.</div>"

He slowly got back to his feet, wincing slightly as the wound in his side reopened slightly from the whip hitting him there. ""Now I'm glad I went with my gut that you were in trouble Crimson.""</div>"

""Oh god,"" she said weakly and Sera walked over to her before taking off the restrants. ""I can't heal you right now. If I do that wound will kill me. The best we could do is carry you."" Sera said to her and Crimson nodded her healing obviously lower down considerably by the drug in her system. Sera looked at the three boys. ""We need to get her back to the academy."" She said and ran over to Korra healing her since she could and then shook her. ""Korra's not waking up. I'm guessing from the head injuries.""</div>"

Luke picked up Korra, ""then let's get out of here I don't want to be here longer with the damage I've done to get down here. With that he walked out of the building, Crimson in his arms.</div>"

It worried her that they wouldn't be able to get back as quickly as before Korra would need attention for her head and Crimson was too weak to even move by herself. It was going to be hard if they were attacked on the way.</div>"

Keep alert,"" Jake nodded to that. Alex kept walking, trying to be as gentle as he could with Crimson in his arms. At least half an hour past before they made it on campus, he growled at coach when he was trying to say Crimson was a traitor that's the only confirmation he gave coach as he walked toward the infirmary.</div>"

She was more worried about Korra's head.</div>"

The hole that had been through being the worse of her injuries. Korra was examined for any mental damage, the only damage was her memory of the day before. Which was honestly probably a good thing for her. Crimson looked at Alex. ""So you honestly have been sitting here this whole time watching over me?"" She asked teasing him.</div>"
3202,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 21:09:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shrugged, ""I told you no matter what happened I wouldn't leave you behind."" He had said it those two years ago, and still he hadn't gone back on his words. Getting up from the chair he was sitting in, he looked at her a small smile came to his lips. He was a lot more like himself in a week though it was harder to get those full smiles now which were rare to see.</div>"

""It's funny, when we got these necklaces I had picked the M to split between both necklaces because it stood for Monster, although now I realize being a monster isn't a bad thing. If anything its find of cool."" She said having a different point of view on the whole half and half thing.</div>"

Crimson asked and looked at him. ""Speaking of our relationship, are we ever going to tell your brothers and the others what happened freshmen year?"" She asked speaking of the month they had actually been together as more than friends before deciding they shouldn't be. Both of them had decided to keep it under lock and key back then. Now that she thought of it she couldn't remember why they had wanted too. There had been a good reason though.</div>"

She and laughed before thinking about it. ""We both broke it off in the end though. Can you remember why we did? I can't seem to remember."" She said honestly. It wasn't like after that anything had been any different.  There just wasn't any romance to their relationship like before.</div>"

""I never had any feelings for another guy. I think the main reason I wanted to go back to being friends is because Luke was going to be coming to the academy and I felt like you should have been spending more time with your brother then bothering with me. As for keeping it a secret, you dad isn't very fond of you being around me, nevermind dating me. He thinks that all three of you should be with one of your own race like him.""</div>"

Being around my own kind, is kinda boring, when you grew up with the pack surrounding you, plus I'll always be in contact with my brothers so it didn't really matter on that part.""</div>"
3211,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:07:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson smirked, ""things that mattered then don`t really matter now huh? We`re not 14 anymore. Actually both of us should be turning 17 soon to be honest."" She said and got up feeling a bit of a sharp tugging in her abdomen. Putting her feet on the floor she looked at him. ""I still don`t think we should get back together at the moment though with all of this stuff going on. I mean those guys are going to want me dead and you saw what they do when someone turns traitor, they`re ruthless about it. I want to avoid hurting you even worse if something happens to me.""</div>"

""Either way it's going to hurt me my brothers saw how well I took your betrayal to the academy, it's going to be even harder if something does happen to you Crimson so either way it's still going to hurt me.""</div>"
3213,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:27:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson nodded. ""Your right, do you want to get back together with me? That should be the first question I should ask you."" She said and sat down on her bed looking him in the eyes with her blue ones. They`d been friends and rivals for a really long time. It was a weird kind of relationship where you can`t stand being without each other but at the same time wouldn`t have any problem beating the other in a fight.</div>"
3214,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:32:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smiled, one of those rare ones. ""Yes of course, though I already have a feeling my brothers aren't going to be alone in this I've seen the way jake and Luke look at the girls."" He smirked to that, knowing that he could give his brothers a rough time.</div>"
3215,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:38:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson laughed and nodded before standing up again and walking over to him. She carefully sat in his lap and looked him the eyes before smirking. ""I guess there`s only one more thing for me to ask then. Alexander Thomas, will you go out with me?"" She asked teasingly trying to keep a straight face but it wasn`t working.</div>"
3216,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:45:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex smirked, ""I think you know the answer Crimson Daniels. But what the hell, yes I will."" He was trying so hard to keep a straight face when he said it, though he did mean it anyone could tell you that.""</div>"
3217,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-03 23:59:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson laughed and kissed him softly. ""That`s that then. You also don`t how long I`ve been waiting to do that."" She joked. Being around him in general made her happier. It was one of many reasons as to why he was her best friend for the past three years. She probably would always want to be human deep down, but it didn`t matter enough to hurt the ones close to her. It wasn`t her choice to become half ghoul but it wasn`t anyone's choice to be a half breed, it just happened.</div>"

He missed this, he didn't know for how long but he did. ""I've missed that you don't know for how long and I don't know either haven't kept count. Though later I need to find out how strong you are and how much freedom has trained you and the other groups then I might have a basic idea.""</div>"

Name the time and place and I`ll happily kick your butt any time."" She joked, although she really did want a rematch. The stupid fae boy had drugged him in their last fight and they hadn`t been able to have a full on fight. ""I`m interested to see just how you guys fight in battle now. You guys wiped out 35 people in a unit of 40 with 5 people. I need to see this.""</div>"

She said and thought about it. ""To commemorate us getting back together I will tell you a secret no else on earth knows except my parents."" Crimson said and looked at him seriously. ""My real name isn`t Crimson."" She said simply. No one knew about her real name but her human parents. She had picked up the name Crimson after she became a ghoul. The name was given by another ghoul that found her after her parents abandoned her. This ghoul ironically was the leader of Freedom.</div>"

Though most people around here thought it was something he just did for no reason, usually he did it when he was curious about something. ""So what is your real name?""</div>"
3223,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 00:44:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""My real name is Ash Caraline Daniel. The name Crimson was given to me by another ghoul to get rid of my old identity of being human. Ironically the same ghoul is the leader of Freedom, but back then the ghoul wasn`t as evil as today. You asked why someone would want a world full of humans. The real answer is because if every other race was gone eating for ghouls would be easy."" Crimson said not sugar coating any of it. The person who had made her into a half ghoul was still a mystery, or the organ in her body`s original owner.</div>"

I hate to say it but I`ve eaten a pure blood human for. There isn`t any kind of thing like it. Comparing it to how you guys eat, it`s something like a drug. When you aren`t eating it you crave it. When your starved of it it makes you moody and easily angered. It physically hurts to be starved because your a ghoul."" She said feeling hungry just thinking about it. ""I haven`t eaten in a week and I already feel like my insides are dying. Imagine living like that for every day of your life. Finally being able to eat without being judged is a pretty nice concept."" She explained and sighed. ""For some reason it feels wrong to talk about it, you guys talk about food like its nothing. When we do it it`s repulsive.""</div>"

A kill someone killed a human, my dad......made me eat the corpse only leaving the blood and bones. It was good though I still rather prefer deer meat over it anytime, plus if you talk to some of the vamps here they've actually drained a human dry.""</div>"

Crimson asked confused by this. Why would a lycan be forced to kill a human when they didn`t have too. Vampires were a different story, they could choose to be killers. They could easily compel a human to let them drink from them and then release them like nothing happened. Ghouls, the wounds they left didn`t go away in a week. They literally ate everything but organs and bones. Just one bite would leave a nasty scar on someone. They would live but ghouls like vampires had an even harder time controlling themselves once they`ve had a bite.</div>"

I`m not sure about Sera but Korra is always choosing to be by Luke. It`s obvious to everyone that she needs to let the cat out of the bag, pun intended."" She said and laid her head in the crook of his neck. ""My real name sounds boyish."" She said and laughed quietly. ""Ash Daniel, I`m pretty sure everyone would think that`s a guy. I`m happy I change my name because of that.""</div>"

""Though I like your real name, if you want I can tell you my middle name. Though I don't even know why my parents chose the name doesn't even sound right after my first.""

Luke was leaning back in his chair, looking at the ceiling. His hands behind his head. He was happy to have his big brother back mostly, a small smile came to his lips at the thought.</div>"

I would be very interested to learn what the name between Alexander Thomas is. Your name already has an edge to it."" She commented curious as to what his middle name was. His name already had a strange ring to it, though she liked the ring to it.

Korra was in cat form she had seen everything past the kiss between Alex and Crimson. She internally grinned before padding away soundlessly. She started to run once she got out of the infirmary and ran to the boy`s dorms. She pawed at Luke`s door trying to make him let her in not finding a reason to transform back to her human form.</div>"

It actually is kinda sweet really. You`d expect your middle name to be your first though which makes it a little weird. I think I`m just going to stick to calling you Alex though."" Crimson said not finding much of a reason to call him anything else.
Korra walked in and jumped up on to his bed before transforming laying with her arms behind her head in human form. ""I just saw something interesting."" She said grinning like a child who`d been told a bad secret.</div>"

3235,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 01:58:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Yeah, I`ll agree on that. I wouldn`t pressure them into going for Korra and Sera. I think they need to wait till they`re ready too. Most pressured relationships fail."" Crimson pointed out and smiled at the blackmail thing. ""There`s a lot of confusing things about this ground."" She said and then thought of something. ""Will the academy even take me back? I mean I was funded to come here by Freedom and destroyed over half their students.""
Korra looked over at him grinning before rolling over on her stomach to look at him her tail waving and forth making the skirt of her uniform move around. ""I saw Alex and Crimson kiss in the infirmary. I`m pretty sure they`re dating now.""</div>"

Rubbing the back of his neck, ""well I'm glad that my brother has someone else by his side. Which reminds me will you go out with me Korra,"" the words fell off his tongue before he could even register them, then he was looking at his shoes.</div>"
3237,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 02:07:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra looked at him raising an eyebrow. ""Well that wasn`t subtle at all now was it."" She said and sat up sitting on the side of his bed. ""I didn`t hear you the first time Luke can you look at me and say what ya said?"" She teased already knowing she was going to say but she wanted him to look at her and ask. It was way too passive for her liking.</div>"
3238,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 02:10:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke took a deep breath before looking up, ""will you go out with me?"" His voice was more firmer than when he first said it, more calm he seemed to have his nerves under control this time, more sure of himself lycans had to be in order to be in a pack.</div>"
3239,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 02:19:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra looked him in the eyes and smiled. ""Yes, now was that so hard."" She teased before laying down on the bed again. She wondered when they`d have to go back into battle. The first time had been insanely rough. If Crimson hadn`t unlocked her full potential who knows where all of them would be at the moment. Speaking of which the ends of her hair never went back to red, they were still ash black.</div>"

""It was hard since I was nervous as hell so be quiet about it not being hard."" He joked, it was hard to get a joke out of him ever since the whole fights started.</div>"
3241,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 02:39:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra laughed looking down at him. ""Why were you nervous? You knew I`d say yes. It`s not like it`s an unknown fact that I like you."" She pointed out and rested her head on his chest her ears standing up right like normal.</div>"
3242,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 13:35:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke shrugged, ""still had my nerves going haywire so don't say it wasn't hard Korra."" He laughed to that, before one of his hands played with one of her ears. His fingers were gentle when he played with her ear, though he suspected it became a habit at most.</div>"
3243,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 15:38:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra purred as he played with her ears. ""I guess asking anyone out is hard."" She admitted closing her eyes. Being a cat demon she took on a lot of traits that were like a cat. For instance, cat nip was a drug to her, balls of yarn were intimidating, and the small red dots were entertaining. Her ears, tail, canine, and slited pupils gave away what she was instantly.</div>"
3244,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 15:43:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke shrugged, smiling though his fingers kept playing with her ear though they were gentle. ""For some reason I know you better than anyone around here does I guess that's because you always came to me really."" Jake popped his neck, a sigh escaped his lips. He didn't know what to do with himself for the extra time he had.</div>"
3245,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 16:09:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Well I knew you would give me a dirty look or get annoyed by me like a lot of the other students do at this school."" She said and stretched her arms.
Sera ran down the hall from the chemistry lab after an explosion and grabbed Jake's arm. ""Oh god I just did something horrible!"" She said and dragged him to the room where everything was covered in a black substance and things were on fire. ""I didn't mix them right, Ms.Fare is going to kill me."" She said referring to the Chemistry teacher.</div>"
3246,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 16:18:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake was trying really hard to, not laugh. Before he grabbed the fire extinguisher, putting out the fires in the room, ""wow and I thought I was the only one to cause explosions in this room."" A smile on his face to that, Luke looked at Korra. ""Being around my brothers I'm used to annoying .""</div>"
3247,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 16:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""It's not funny I thought I had the formula right."" Sera said and started cleaning the black gunk off of the counter. ""My hair looks like I'm some kind of gross cupcake."" She said and sighed as she got more paper towels from the sink.</div>"
3248,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 16:32:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake sighed, a smile on his lips. ""Well it is so it's alright."" He stood, just to see sera a few inches from him. He looked back to his feet, getting back to cleaning the gunk off of the floor and tables.</div>"
3249,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 19:02:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera looked at him before walking over to the cupboards to clean them off. ""Thanks for helping me though, Ms.Fare is going to be back soon and I can't let her sent the mess I've caused in her labatory.""</div>"
3250,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 19:12:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake sighed, ""no problem anyone quick question. Where do we stand honestly? I'm kinda confused on that part since you've opened up to me really better than anyone else."" He shrugged to that, cleaning off whatever he could.</div>"
3251,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 21:07:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera continued cleaning thinking about that. ""I'm not sure to be honest. Right now I think of you more as a really good friend then anything else."" She said honestly knowing it wasn't what he wanted to hear.</div>"
3252,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 21:23:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake just nodded, and kept silent after that. Getting whatever needed to be cleaned cleaned, he looked at Sera once the room was clean. ""You need me for anything else just come get me,"" after the words he just walked out of the room. His hands in his pockets, shaking his head slightly a sigh escaping him lips.</div>"
3253,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-04 21:44:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera watched him walk out of the room and sighed going over to the door to watch him walk down the hall before taking a deep breath. She walked into the classroom and got her things before going back to her dorm room. Opening the door she opened it and hung her bag up before looking at her costume hanging up on the wall. Out of nowhere the ringer in her pocket started flashing and she sighed walking over to her costume to put it on. ""Looks like we need to go to battle again.""
Crimson looked at herself in the mirror of the bathroom in the infirmary. Pulling up her shirt she looked at just how bad her wound was still. It looked like it`d heal up all the way in an hour or so. There was no exposed insides anymore which made her happy. She wondered if the academy would let her join her friends` unit. The units were only five people weren`t they?</div>"
3254,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 00:05:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex was already on the move, his gear already on him since it was his regular clothes he was wearing. Looking to Jake who had been quiet by his side, shrugging they would have to get a briefing on where they were being sent. It almost felt like they were going to be back up on another unit, since all units were deployed right now.</div>"
3255,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 00:39:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson walked out of the bathroom only to see Mr.Delkins standing there with her mask and a uniform. ""Go with them, the academy is letting you prove yourself via me. So you are being put out there with your friends. You need to suit up and leave immediately. If you succeed in living up to what they claim you are then you will be reenrolled into the academy."" He said and Crimson nodded. ""Thank you Mr.Delkins."" She said and took the uniform before running back in the bathroom. She changed and put her mask on before running out of the infirmary and too the front gate. Korra left Luke`s room just as the ringer went off. She changed into her uniform and met the others with Sera at the gate.</div>"
3256,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 00:49:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex nodded to the others, a small smile came to his lips. ""Nice of you to join us crimson,"" he joked knowing she would be put on this team. ""Alright were being back up to another team, they got doubled and are now doing there best to hold off at a building one is injured. We need to move now."" With that the brothers shifted, Alex leaned his head down motioning for crimson to get on his back as his brothers ran ahead of him.</div>"
3257,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:12:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson climbed on to his back as Korra shifted and Sera climbed on her back. ""Why is it the guy uniforms are more chill than the girl ones?"" She said mostly to herself as they went to the building. She was ready to prove herself too the academy. To show she wasn`t evil and never had been. She had just been confused.</div>"
3258,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:14:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex let out a snort, before running. Few minutes passed before they were at the entrance of the building, ""because they don't want us to rip them when using some of the wolf stuff at will I've already had Luke rip up a shirt just in a fight between me and him."" He walked in, the wolf claws out as he kept moving. It was quiet way to quiet to be abandoned here.</div>"
3259,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:26:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""You have a point."" Crimson said and looked around the building. ""Unit 30 was placed here, they have about 55 in numbers."" She said like having this big of units in an army was normal. The amount of people in Freedom was astounding. Korra shifted and looked around sniffing the air. ""They`re upstairs, three floors."" She said to them being completely serious right now.</div>"
3260,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:33:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex nodded to that, ""it's to quiet right now I would expect some resistance at the very least."" With that, he was taking the stairs quietly. Seeing another person from the academy in a faes grip, his dagger flew true and hit him in the back of his shoulder blade where the heart was. Then that's when all chaos broke loose, several were going after him and his brothers while the rest went after the rest of there group.</div>"
3261,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:43:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson jumped past the people that attacked her and used regular fighting moves to take them down. She wasn`t strong enough to use her kagune. First of all she hadn`t eaten in a week, and second what little power she still had to activate it needed to used in drastic conditions today. Korra had transformed and was attacking them scorching most of them with her flames while Sera healed and shot arrows.</div>"
3262,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 01:49:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex got to the injured student, throwing his knifes at the two enemies that tried to flank him. Handing the student off toward Luke, once his brother was out of the room he heard a creak the floor was getting unstable slightly it shifted. Giving the people with freedom enough time to grab him. Looking to Crimson, <span class=""bb-i"">i'm sorry about this Ash</span> his voice was clear in her head. Before he started kicking the support that was holding the entrance open to the room. The rocks and rubble collapsed, blocking the path straight toward him.</div>"
3263,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:09:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked at him and yelled before running to go to him just as the path was blocked. Her kagune came out and started attacking the ruble as fast as possible causing a lot of damage in seconds. Although the support beam to the roof broke and it started collapsing. Sera grabbed her arm. ""Crimson we have to go."" She said and dragged Crimson away as Korra was hit by the ruble and fell down the flights of stairs landing at the very bottom.</div>"
3264,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:12:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke cursed, though his Jake got Korra into his arms. He gave a grateful nod to that since, he was still carrying the injured person. Though his brows furrowed when he thought about Alex, would he make it out alive? Would he make it out and not be captured he doubted that one.</div>"
3265,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:21:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson kept looking at the collapsing building even after they had gotten outside. ""I can`t stand here while they take him away."" She said and tore her arm away from Sera`s before jumping up the building to the roof of it which was slowly collapsing. She jumped off trying to find where they could`ve gone. Korra woke up and she bit into Luke`s shoulder before falling on the ground. She transformed into demon form and growled at the three of them.</div>"
3266,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:25:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">(Wow wrong brother but I can fix that)

Luke grunted in pain, the wound already healing up. Though he held his hands in surrender, Jake couldn't do that while holding the injured student. ""I won't hurt you Korra promise I won't."" The freedom kids had Alex between them, the lycan struggling every step. Though they were taking an underground tunnel to one of the many bases they had.</div>"
3267,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:31:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson stopped on a building to catch her breath. ""I need to think logically about this. If they didn`t go through the city then they...went through the tunnels."" She said and went back to the collapsed building searching for corpses. Once she found one and ate she wiped her mouth and jumped out of the building going to one of the tunnel accesses.
Korra growled and jumped at Luke her flames burning brighter than before. It didn`t seem like anything was getting through to her head. The only thing going through her mind was to kill. Sera shot Korra with arrows trying to get rid of the energy she had but it wasn`t working. ""Soemthing`s really wrong.""</div>"
3268,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:37:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke was tackled to the ground, not caring that the flames were burning his skin. Looking down at Korra, he growled low and feral showing how close he was to let the beast inside him take control of the situation.alex kept struggling, even after they had made sure he was locked in the chair the silver restraints burning him. Though no one knew about this place, except for the really high ranking people.</div>"
3269,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 02:55:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra bite into his shoulder again obviously not hearing him. The angrier she got the more intense her flames became. In the matter of seconds her body seemed like a glowing blue and white mass as she just got more mad. 
Crimson ran down the tunnels looking around with the glow of her red eye. When she got to the first chamber she stopped and made her kagune come out shards spraying in every direction knowing people were hiding in here Hearing splashes of water she saw four people in the water. They were expecting her to come this way.</div>"
3270,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 03:00:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke kept cursing, before he said one thing and just stood there waiting for an attack. ""This isn't you Korra it never was you were never meant to kill your friends come on and calm down already."" The TV in the room came on, a Vampire was looking at the screen. ""Crimson nice to see you again or not. Though I don't really care, your boyfriend here won't talk."" A muffled whimper sounded in the back ground, ""no matter what we try on him he won't speak but I guess I don't really give a damn we get some fun for once now don't we."" Another whimper sounded from the background.</div>"
3271,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 03:12:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Korra growled in response and jumped back before looking at Jake. She attacked him next making the injured person go feet away. She bit into his arm painfully. Sera looked at Kora. ""I`m sorry Kora,"" she said and a ball of light from her staff flew right into Korra`s head before Korra`s eyes dulled and she passed out next to Jake in human form, half of her face burned badly and patches of clothes burned away.
Crimson looked at the screen and glared. ""Leave him alone! He didn`t do anything!"" She yelled angrily. ""If you want me to shut up kill me, but don`t hurt him!"" Crimson yelled her kagune seeming like it was starting get stronger in her rage. ""If you do anything to him I swear to go I will rip every single one of your fucking hearts out!""</div>"
3272,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 03:29:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The vampire just laughed, before going back and pulling Alex's head up by his hair. His face already bruised and bloody from the silver and wolfsbane. ""Having him shuts you up because you utter a word about this about any info you have on us we will end his life. Plus he has info on what does Delkin call you Feardom yah I think that was it, we plan to get that out of him."" A small whimper came out of Alex as they pumped a little of the drug into his system. Luke frowned, ""what the hell is wrong with her.""</div>"
3273,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 03:40:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""He doesn't know anything about Feardom. Whatever you heard was a lie."" Crimson said trying to convince them to let him go. She knew it was futile though. Freedom was ruthless, they'd do anything to get what they wanted. 
Sera looked at Korra. ""I have no idea, I've never seen anything like this before. It's like her mind is gone and all that's left is rage.""</div>"
3274,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 03:43:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The vampire laughed, ""with him being captain of his own squad yah right. Though for right now we'll keep your little boyfriend maybe even mess with his thoughts some see if we can turn him to this side."" Luke frowned, ""I've seen it happen though it only happens to crazy wolves when the pay let the wolf take over fully.""</div>"

If you even try to mess with his head I will destroy all of you and you know I can!"" Crimson yelled anger in her eyes. 
""But Korra doesn't have anything like that. She's a Cat Demon. They don't exactly follow the same laws as lycans do."" Sera said trying to understand what was happening.</div>"
3276,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 04:25:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke frowned, ""though it could follow to where we only know our basic instincts again. When we loose our memories protect kill I think with her she only remembers the killing it would make since."" The vampire laughed, ""though you don't know where we are Crimson so right now we might as well have our fun with hurting him and work on getting the info from him. So you have fun for now, while we torture your boyfriend remember were not afraid to die so it doesn't really work on us to threaten us."" With that the screen went black.</div>"

Sera said as she walked over to korra and bent down beside her looking for major injuries. ""She got a blow to the head in the building. The injuries she's gotten from the are hard to tell.""
Crimson watched as the screen went black her kagune attacked screen not stopping till it was rubble. ""No! Give him back!""</div>"

She knows the city in this state better than we do."" She said and walked over to Luke. She healed him before healing Jake. The wounds were less destructive on her body showing just how stron she was becoming. ""It's gping to take awhile to get back.""</div>"

Picking up Korra, getting back to the academy he didn't answer coach when he had asked where crimson and Alex were he would explain later.</div>"
3281,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 15:38:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When Sera got back to the academy she went to her dorm and changed into her uniform before going to the lab. Trying the formula she was working on again, hopefully not exploding anything this time.
Crimson didn't come back to the academy until late into the night. She looked like utter hell and still felt like punching a wall. Blood was on her clothes from fighting and her mental state was not any better. Sitting on a chair in the courtyard she slammed her fist on a table. ""I told him that it would be bad if we be me more and he convinced me. Now they have him!""</div>"
3282,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 15:41:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake looked below him, at Crimson. ""He can be pretty persuasive if he wants to be. I guess it's something he got from our mother, though he probably won't utter a word about what were planning or anything he won't break he'll try to make sure to stay strong while we try and figure out his location. I already have coach working on getting his location.""</div>"
3283,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 16:04:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked up at him and sighed taking off her mask. ""It's my fault they have him. I don't understand why they don't just kill me instead. Why torture one of the people I care about so I won't tell some stupid secrets. Once we have Alex back I'm going to get those out in the open and I will destroy them.""</div>"
3284,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 16:27:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake shrugged, ""they new by taking him they could get info on Feardom since he is a captain of his own team. By giving that to them, then they can take us down in one big swoop it's like killing two birds with one stone.""</div>"
3285,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 19:51:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Yeah well we can do the same thing to them. We just need to wait to get Alex back. In order to do what I think we should he can't be there. If he is there's little to nothing that he can get back here alive."" Crimson said and leaned back.</div>"
3286,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 19:58:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jakes eyes widened slightly, before a sigh escaped his lips. ""Alex had always said he knew what he was doing when coach had asked for volunteers to stay and fight. He was the first one to raise his hand then us, he knew he might die in all of this though he's probably at the main base getting interrogated it would be the only logical place.""</div>"
3287,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-05 22:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""They wouldn't keep him in  place I know and can get too. If they did I would have gotten him because I looked there earlier. Don't ask how I got out but he wasn't there."" Crimson sighed. ""I can't loose him, he's the first person who cared a damn about me. He didn't let me be alone after our first fight.""</div>"
3288,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-06 14:11:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake frowned, before nodding. ""For now we have to believe coach can find his, location."" He sighed, though getting the call from his brother. ""Yah?"" His eyes widened, ""what do you mean coach won't try to find his location?!?!"" A frustrated growl left his lips, ""I don't care if he says it's useless we don't abandon our family or friends no matter the cost I'll be there in a minute Luke hold on.""</div>"
3289,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-07 16:50:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson stood up quickly her chair falling over and looked at him. ""He's stuck there and their not going to try to save him!"" She yelled her eyes flaring up. ""I'm going to find him, if they aren't I am. I'm not leaving him in there because I was a fool.""</div>"
3290,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-09 14:20:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake sighed, ""then if your going to go and find him I'm going with him."" He touched the ear piece, ""Luke I'm going with crimson to go find Alex tell sera whenever you have the chance."" He looked to crimson, ""alright though I'm going with you.""</div>"
3291,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-10 13:25:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson nodded and put her mask back on. ""Just know your going to probably see sides of me you don't want too."" She said and started walking back to the entrance, because of how much energy she had burned trying to find him earlier she was starving. She'd have to find someone who had died in the wreckage. Jake could look away if he didn't want to see that it wasn't exactly pretty.</div>"
3292,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-10 13:39:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded, ""I can handle that plus your going to need a nose since I can probably be able to track him that way."" He ran up and walked by her side, it seemed like Alex made a big difference on her. He made a mental note to tell whoever took him to tell them they released the hurricane on themselves. Luke sighed, looking at Korra before looking up at Sera. ""Jakes going with Crimson to go find Alex, don't know when they'll be back though.""</div>"
3293,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-10 14:08:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson nodded as they got to the gate she walked out the guard there not caring. It was obvious both of them were academy students. Once they were outside the academy she started running.
Sera nodded, ""I don't think it's smart for them to go by themselves but our team is broken up there's nothing we can do.""</div>"
3294,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-10 14:40:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake followed, shifting keeping the same pace beside her. He would get his brother back, the three brothers never really left anyone behind no matter the cost.
Luke looked up at Sera, ""what did you say to Jake he's been a lot more quiet after the explosion in the science lab and he won't even tell me.""</div>"
3295,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-10 15:36:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson went into a collapsed building from a past fight and sniffed around for a course half breed or preferably human. Finding a full human one she ate and then wiped her mouth before walking past him. ""I'm surprised there was a full human. Let's go,""</div>"
3296,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-13 15:24:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded, before taking in the smell of the area. Picking up his brothers scent, he started running. He was scared about what they were doing to his older brother just to get information out of him. Luke looked at Korra's form before looking up at Sera, ""what did you say to Jake he seemed more quiet after he said he talked to you.""</div>"
3297,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-13 17:05:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson followed after him thinking about what she would do when they finally got Alex back. Just thinking of what those monsters could be doing to him made her blood curtle.  She was going to take the whole organization down after they got him back. There wasn't any doubt in her mind about that.
Sera looked at him and sighed. ""He asked me what I thought about him as. I know he wanted me to say more than friends but I said I thought of him as a really good friend because I don't think at I am ready to be in a relationship with him."" She said honestly and looked at Korra.</div>"
3298,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-13 18:09:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke nodded to that, ""it's up to you though I don't know if all of us can get out of this war alive that's why I rather have my feelings out there instead of keeping them locked away and having regrets."" Jake, was following the scent, his brows creasing as he went into the destroyed part of the city before he stopped grabbing the lid of one of the sewers. Though no smell of wastes made it to his nose it looked like they cleaned it out.</div>"
3299,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-13 22:00:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I'm not sure if I feel that way for him though."" Sera said and sighed. ""I wish I could just think that way but I can't. If we all make it out of this then I don't want to have it not work out and I don't know if it will work out. He's an amazing person and he's so nice to me, but I don't know."" She said and sighed.
Crimson looked down into the sewer and nodded. ""I knew that they had him in the tunnels."" She said and jumped down into it looking around immediately.  ""It's clear,"" she whispered up to him her mask muting some of the sound. She wasn't going to activate her kagune until she was sure that she should.</div>"
3300,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 00:28:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke shrugged, ""saying now sera how would it not work why would we go out with the person that isn't our mate?"" He sighed before looking to her figure, ""we only go out to give the person that isn't a lycan a chance to say no or not that's why you see the person that isn't a lycan leaving us if it doesn't work out."" Jake jumped down following his nose, till he just came upon a wall his brows creasing then he saw a piece of metal sticking out grabbing it and pulling down the wall moved aside.</div>"
3301,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 00:38:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I don`t know!"" Sera said frustrated as she stood up. ""I just can`t right now."" She said and was about to walk out of the clinic as Korra woke up. Korra`s eyes snapped open and she sat up looking at both of them growling. Her eyes looked blood shot even though she was just sleeping. Her ears were against her head and her tail was moving back and worth franticly. 
Crimson watched as the wall moved and didn`t walk forward until she looked carefully at what was ahead before walking through the opening. Turning her head she gazed around the new place opened, it was a room. She knew from before though that this wasn't the final place, it was supposed to look like a dead end. ""Where is the other entrance?""</div>"
3302,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 00:56:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke looked to Korra, ""Korra calm down please were not going to hurt you I promise we won't hell I won't hurt you why would I?"" He sighed, ""Korra remember your kind made lycans I won't hurt you please just calm down."" Jake smelled the air before finding another lever and pulling down just to hear screams down the hall with that he ran.</div>"
3303,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 01:08:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Help!"" Sera said and three nurses came in and held Korra down before she could jump on anyone. Sera looked at Korra. ""What did they do to her?"" She asked mostly herself as Korra tried forcing herself away from them. ""What can bring someone back when they can`t bring themselves back?""
Crimson heard the screams and ran as fast as she could down the hall her kagune spreading out from her back. She kicked the door and it broke open. She walked forward and looked into the room at the people in it.</div>"
3304,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 01:11:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke shrugged, a panicked sigh escaping his lips. ""I don't know sera I don't neither do my brothers once we had to bring back Alex from his wolf instincts we just waited it out didn't make any movement toward him waited for him to come to us."" Alex looked at the figures surrounding him, before the silver stake with wolfsbane was once again drove into his thigh several other states were sticking out of his body. He was covered in his own blood.</div>"
3305,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 01:19:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson`s wings spread out as he red eyes looked completely and utterly pissed. Her wing`s broke into shard spraying at the figures. The shards struck all of the figures and missed Alex. She then ran forward and tried to punch one but something faster knocked her on to her back by punching her in the stomach. The air got knocked out of her and for about five seconds she couldn`t breath till she coughed up blood and wiped her mouth. ""Had a pretty recent meal haven`t you."" A figure before her teased mockingly. The figure was wearing a mask that was like a fox demon. 
Sera nodded, ""I want to try something. I haven`t tested this kind of fae magic on anyone yet so I can`t tell what will happen, but it won`t give any damage."" She said and walked over to Korra placing her hands on either side of Korra`s head her thumbs meeting in the middle. Sera closed her eyes and concentrated on breaking through Korra`s mind.

Biting his neck before going for the windpipe before something pulled him off and threw him to the other side of the room. He got back to his paws ripping out the vamps windpipe before standing there bloody.</div>"
3307,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 01:41:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The figure in the mask jumped up on a platform from the ceiling as the vampire attacked Jake. Crimson got up and looked at the figure. ""I`ll come up there!"" She yelled and the person in the mask just laughed their mask disguising their voice. ""It`s nice to finally see this side of you, the evil side. Crimson, the great lieutenant. Look where you are fighting over a single lycan."" Crimson jumped on the platform and punched them off it by their ribcage. The person flipped and landed on their feet holding their ribs. Crimson jumped down as her kagune started attacking the person them dodging extremely fast. ""This the fastest you can go?"" They taunted as their own kagune came from their back wrapping into a blade around their arm.</div>"

The dagger had sunk into the guys chest, but not anywhere near the heart before the other was flying and sunk into his thigh Alex hurt though he swore he would pass out at any minute.</div>"
3309,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 02:02:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The figure blocked the blade before running off. Crimson watched all of them leave before going over to Jake and Alex. ""Those bastards are lucky I didn`t kill 'em."" She said and looked at Alex not really sure what to do. The only thing she know was he needed help quickly. Crimson looked at Jake. ""Let`s get him back, we have to hurry before they come back."" She said and wrapped one of Alex`s arms around her neck her kagune disappearing while her eye turned back to blue.</div>"
3310,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 02:08:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded to that, grabbing the other arm. Alex groaned as he was picked up, Jake winced slightly to that. He mumbled something under his breath to low for any of them to hear except him.</div>"

She started walking out of the room and down the tunnels. If they were going to get back in time they had to move quickly. Not only for Alex`s health but also so they don`t get caught in some slaughter.</div>"
3312,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 02:20:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex tried to keep his footing stumbling every few steps, though he knew to keep going no matter the cost.

""Hold him, I go up there and bring him up."" She said and let her kagune come out before lifting herself out. She made the long strands of it come down and wrap around Alex lifting him out of the tunnel. ""Jake, can you get up?"" She asked once Alex was out and she had wrapped his arm around her neck again.</div>"
3314,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-17 13:20:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded, jumping grabbing the ledge and pulling himself up.

Crimson asked as she looked over at him even though she didn't stop walking. Dragging Alex was going to exhaust them and slow them down. He needed to get help fast so he wouldn't make it and that scared the hell out of her.</div>"
3316,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-17 15:44:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake nodded, dropping his brothers arm.

3318,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-17 15:58:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jake started running, it was a faster pace than they were going.

""You have to keep fighting, soon we`ll be back at the academy and it will be okay. Just try to stay conscious as long as you can."" She said her chest hurting.

She glared at him with anger and he just stared back seriously. They'd broken the rules when it came to missions but it didn't matter to her. As they walked into the infirmary and set Alex on one of the beds she saw a nurse run over to him before she looked at the other beds. She saw Sera laying on one unconscious and a few people from missions before seeing Korra's bed covered by the curtain. Walking back she saw Korra was restrained by cloth around her ankles and wrists with handcuffs on top of all of them. ""What happened to her?"" She she'd looking at Luke. Korra was unconscious again going through fits of rage before passing out since she woke up.</div>"

""I'm just glad he's back and away from those monsters. Their numbers are growing and back there we faced Freedom's leader. I wasn't expecting their leader to be there. There probably was some kind of sick amusement."" She said before taking off her mask her face having a little dried blood on it. Her clothes had Alex's blood. All and all she herself looked like she had just killed someone.</div>"

Luke nodded to jakes words, sighing lightly.</div>"

I'm not going to let him or anyone at this school decide what happens to students. There's no man left behind here. I've caused too many deaths to let more happen. They have to understand we are still teenagers even if we are soldiers.""</div>"

It's my fault he was even in there."" Crimson said and then got an idea. ""I'll be back, I have to go do something."" She said and walked out of the room going to go look for a certain fae.

Sera's eyes shot open and she gasped for air sitting up as she woke up. She looked over at them with wide eyes. ""Oh my god that was a lot.""</div>"
3332,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-03 20:46:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke raised an eyebrow as he watched crimsons form leave, shrugging as he took her place in the seat looking at his brothers still form.

Jake looked over at Sera, ""glad to see your finally awake."" Taking a seat on the opposite side of the bed, his eyes looked at Alex he needed his brother to pull through this he didn't know what he would do without him.</div>"
3333,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-03 20:59:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sera looked at him and nodded. ""Korra's not in her body."" She said simply looking at Korra in the corner. ""Someone or something took her out of it leaving her natural instincts behind. Korra is literally a shell. If not I would have been able to pull her out without making myself pass out."" She explained</div>"
3334,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-04 14:30:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luke raised an eyebrow, ""and how in the world did that hit leave only her instincts in place?"" That was the main question he just wanted Korra back by his side the girl that was always asking for food.</div>"
3335,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 00:50:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Someone must have had a hold on her while we were fighting. When she got hurt they probably took over her fully because she was unconscious."" Sera said unsure of it and looked over at Alex. ""I saw Alex in there too. He isn`t doing too well guys."" She stated not feeling too happy about this fact.

Crimson opened the door to the fae`s room and looked at the girl across from her. ""Your the Norn right, the one that can do almost anything?"" She asked and the girl turned in her seat from her desk to look at her. ""Yes that would be me. I can grant wishes to people, but they are at a high price."" The Norn said and Crimson nodded walking in closing the door behind her. ""I want you to save someone for me. My boyfriend is in really bad shape because of me and he looks like he`s going to die. I want to save him. I don`t care what the price is but I need him to live."" Crimson said hearing that label on Alex feeling strange, boyfriend, not something she would have thought would be so weird but oddly satisfying to say. The fae girl stood up and walked over to Crimson. The girl was a senior and being known for her fae abilities. ""I can grant what you ask but what can you offer me? The price for a life is a really big one,"" She asked and Crimson took a deep breath. ""I`ll offer you my kagune, I`m nothing without it."" Crimson replied and the Norn laughed. ""No, you don`t fully accept that side of you. I think I`ll take something much more precious."" She said and put her hand on Crimson`s heart her palm glowing just like her eyes. Crimson stared at her as a burning sensation went through her feeling as if something was being ripped out of her before the Norn pulled away. ""What did you take from me?"" Crimson said looking at her scared. ""Your wish is done, but I took the love you have for that man. You`ll never feel passion for him again.""</div>"
3336,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 02:02:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex's eyes slowly opened, he could literally feel his skin crawling and patching itself up. Some places were too damaged to heal fully, but it healed enough to where it wasn't fatal or it was just slightly bleeding though he still felt like he went through hell and came back burning. 

Jake looked to his brother confused, ""what the hell I don't get it. He isn't supposed to heal this fast silver and wolfsbane together are lethal so what in the nine hells is healing him this fast?""</div>"
3337,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 03:05:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked at her like she was insane. ""You never told me what you were taking from me!"" She said and felt like something was literally missing for her head, it felt empty. The Norn smiled evilly, ""you said you would give anything to help him. Never had to tell you what I was going to take."" She said and walked back to her desk. ""Now get out."" She said and Crimson stood up opening the door and slamming it behind her. She walked back to the clinic and walked inside looking at Alex and then at all of them. Walking up beside Alex she looked down at him and gave a small smile. ""I`m glad your awake."" The Norn was right, she didn`t feel anything at all towards Alex anymore. It was one of the weirdest feelings of her life. 
Sera looked at Alex shocked at what was happening before Crimson walked in a few minutes later. None of this was normal. It had to be some kind of magic. Who performed it though?</div>"
3338,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 13:54:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex looked at crimson, his brows coming together. ""What the hell did you do Ash, because I'm not even supposed to heal this fast with that silver and wolfsbane."" Wincing slightly as he sat up, then looking at her. ""I want to know what in the nine hells you did to get me to heal this fast.""

Jake was shocked, this is what he was saying when he first woke up. Though it did make since crimson had to of had to do something to get Alex to heal this fast. That's what he wanted to know himself.</div>"

""Can we talk privately guys."" She said and Sera looked at them confused before getting off of her bed and walking out of the room.

""I'll be fine go find something to do with yourselves."" Jake and Luke nodded, walking out a sigh escaped his lips. ""Why did you want to talk to me privately Ash?""</div>"

""Because the others don't know much about our relationship and this only deals with me and you."" She said and took a deep breath trying to think of how to start this.

3345,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 15:12:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex flinched slightly, his heart felt like shattering.

3346,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 15:24:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson watched not knowing what to say to him. It hurt her that this happened and it hurt her that he was probably heart broken right now but she couldn't do anything about it. His wolf probably wanted to kill something or even worse and she had no idea what to tell him. You can't just say 'Sorry' in this situation. That wouldn't fix anything.</div>"

That was one of the things that the Norn had took from him, he wasn't like the others who could control his wolf easily taking the main control from him which made it hard to keep his wolf under control. His hands clenched and loosened as he tried to put some kind of control on his wolf.</div>"
3348,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 16:13:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson watched him before taking a deep breath. She had no idea what to say or do, so she just started there. He looked like he was struggling to control himself and she felt if she spoke it would only make all of this worse so she stayed silent. If she stayed silent then he could try to keep himself under control without her interfering.</div>"
3349,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 16:38:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Getting his wolf under control he relaxed, swallowing slightly. He didn't know what to do or say he just knew that the Norn had taken her feeling for him from her. ""You know just before this whole thing screwed up Ash I found a new meaning for the M but I don't know if I should tell you or not without those feelings the meaning doesn't really mean anything to you."" He said in a soft voice, just loud enough for her to hear.</div>"
3350,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 18:58:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Crimson looked at him sadly and then looked down at her lap. ""I didn't know what to do Alex. You were dying, I didn't want you to die. I wasn't expecting her to take that from me. I was expecting it to end up this way. It hurts that I'm hurting you and I still care about you"" She said before standing up and kissing him lightly before backing away. There was nothing, nothing at all. No happiness, no giddy feeling, it was like that part of her was dead. ""I think I should go.""</div>"

Though I promise you, we will find a way through this.""</div>"

This was weird she used to have all sorts of things to say to him and now it just felt like she couldn't say anything. It all just felt too serial.  It was hard to be near him at the moment. She knew he was in pain and she was the cause of it. That hurt more than she'd ever be able to explain.</div>"
3355,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 19:34:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex sighed, before wincing slightly as he got to his feet. ""We'll find a way somehow I promise that though right now I need to talk to coach. I think I remember from that room I was dragged I remember more than they think."" With that he limped out grabbing his jacket on the way.</div>"

Ash said turning to him as he limped to his stuff. She wondered if she'd ever be able to get her feelings back. From what she'd seen most  of the wishes the Norn made were set in stone. You'd never get what you lost back.</div>"
3357,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-05 19:43:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex shrugged, not really caring. ""I think we need to strike now before anything else happens plus I think I know how to get to the leader and not have anyone else around."" Before he limped out of the room toward where the coach was, he wasn't really a fan of the coach but still.</div>"

That ws the reason they went to save him. Walking out of the room she walked to her own room and opened the door and shut it before falling on to her bed. ""This is all too difficult. I'm not even sure what to do. He wants to hold on to me and I want to hold on to him but that's selfish.""</div>"
3359,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-06 13:52:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alex's jaw clenched when coach told him how he abandoned him. Punching coach in the jaw, ""your an idiot and a jackass I don't take orders from you anymore none of it."" He growled slightly, putting his hands against the railing. With that, he pushed himself up. Grabbing his gear and headed out, he knew it was a stupid idea but he knew his brothers would follow and his scent would lead them directly to the leaders fortress he remembered more than freedom thought he would.</div>"

Pulling up the clothe covering the bottom she pulled out a shoe box and took out a mask and a few different weapons that she had hidden in it under papers. Putting them on her bed she stood up and stared at the weapons. These were weapons and the mask she had worn originally when she was in Freedom. The mask that she used now was a new one she'd gotten a week before the attack. This mask was her old one and was still in excellent condition. It also was a feared mask in Freedom. ""I'll destroy all of it.""</div>"

He was panicking slightly, he knew his brother would do something stupid, but not go and try to get to the leader while he was still injured. He kept moving running through each of the halls and double checking rooms.

Alex looked at the building, shifting getting through the crack of the building. Wiggling through making sure he wasn't heard. Hearing voices he kept quiet, his paws not making a sound on the concrete as he walked forward.</div>"

She wasn't exactly on their teams or even enrolled in the academy anymore besides living arrangements. They had no control over what she did or decided to do. Eventually with help she'd be able to destroy all of Freedom. She just needed time to get what she needed together.</div>"

""Hey Jake, we need to gather everyone up. I have a plan."" She said and wondered why he was looking so frantic. ""Are you okay?"" She asked not know Alex was no where to be found. For all she knew he was just in his dorm if anything.</div>"

""He's not the only one you need to worry about. I know exactly where he went. Get everyone together now and meet me at the gate!"" She yelled and let go of him before going to the gate obviously pissed. She couldn't believe that idiot had decided to leave by himself. That's the stupidest thing you could do.</div>"

Swallowing this was the most rashest thing he had ever seen Alex do. Though mostly, he just had laid the tracks down toward the building the leader would be in. He knew that they had changed locations since last time crimson had been there. 

See the room full of masks, amber eyes looked around looking for a mask that would look familiar to him. He was now glad that he had shifted keeping his vantage point, he looked around moving forward slowly his paws silent.</div>"

Ash said and slid on a leather jacket instead of her usual red ones. ""Let's get going,"" she said walking out the gate ignoring the guards.  The place they were going to was a mask place. She was going to need masks for all of them. It was the only way to get through Freedom.</div>"

Getting to the shop she could see that it was still intact. She opened the door and walked in before looking around. Masks hung all over the walls and on figures round the shop. ""Jack, where are you?"" She called out walking deeper into the shop carefully. Sera walked behind her looking around confused at all of this. A man with black and red hair walked out of the back of the shop. ""And you would be miss?"" Crimson showed her masks and his eyes widened. ""Crimson, I heard you were dead.""</div>"

One for all of us and one extra."" Ash stated directly and he nodded. ""Of course, I just need all of your species and any personal details, such as powers and of the sorts."" Jack said smiling only half of his mouth smiling considering the other half was sewn shut. ""Three lycan all male, one cat demon that can light on fire female, a healing fae female, and me."" Ash stated and Jack nodded before running into the back. ""Wait five minutes."" He said before disappearing. Ash looked at all of them. ""Today Freedom's ending.""</div>"

Everyone in Freedom uses masks to cover their identities. They can only know the higher ups based on this. My mask I had will only sneak suspicion. The older one I have though is one I had when I was the second hand man to their leader. The new masks will hide all of our identities.""</div>"

He gave one to each of them before giving three of them to Ash. ""I hope that there is a payment for this Crimson."" He said looking her in the eyes and Ash nodded reaching into her pocket she took out a bracelet and gave it to him. ""It was my birth mother`s, she had a lot of love for it. You can feed off the emotions on it."" She said and with that turned around and walked out of the shop. ""Put on the masks were going to go find Alex."" She said attaching the two masks on to the other side of her belt before slipping on the new one.</div>"

Jake did the same knowing they couldn't shift with these on they started running, catching there brothers scent in the wind. Following it, before stopping at a hole small enough for a werewolf to squeeze through. ""He went through here by chance he's still on it the second floors collapsed allowing him a vantage point to look around.""</div>"

Ash followed after the two boys before getting to the hole. She nodded, ""we need to get to him quickly."" She said and slide down into the hole looking around quickly. With the power she had from earlier she could survive awhile. The masks she was given every time she got a new one all had the factor that they looked a bit like gas masks. This was just an image that Jack had given to her and she was used to it by now. This mask was definitely different from the other one`s though. Even with the mask on she could unzip the mouth of it and eat, something she couldn`t before.</div>"

He had known they would come, shifting to human he looked down at the crowd. ""The leaders in another room, different from this one I don't know where but he isn't in the main room."" His voice was low and quiet.</div>"

""This is for you."" She whispered and walked closer to to where Alex had been looking out of. Unlike her other masks though, this one let her hair be free letting it fall around her shoulders. Looking out into the busy room she looked around for a door that would lead to the leader.</div>"
3387,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-09 15:43:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Alex looked at the mask, before putting it on.

The figure noted as the leader looked at them. ""What's the meaning of this we are in a meeting?"" They demanded glaring at all of them their voice once again masked by the fox mask they wore. Ash turned and out a chain and lock on the handles of the door before turning around to look at the leader this dead eyes.</div>"

Though he stayed quiet and was going to let her do the talking, his wolf was itching to sink his claws into one of these bastards. He knew that some of those men that tortured him came from each of these men.</div>"

""Who are you?"" They said seriously and Ash didn't speak instead she walked forward. The leader's kagune came out and wrapped around their arm the blade spiral shining. Ash's kagune came out and both of them just stared at eachother before Ash's wings exploded in a cloud of shards at the group of people the leader getting hit by a lot of them. Running forward the other part of her kagune went forward to attack the figure.</div>"
3393,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-13 20:18:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Lex was on the move already, his brothers flanking him. Both brothers went after different figures while Alex dove across the table kicking the leader in the face making him fly back. Hitting the wall hard enough to crack it, behind the mask Alex's eyes burned a deep amber showing that his wolf had control though Alex still decided who died.</div>"
3394,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-17 00:54:00,Smystar99,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">The leader laughed as they stood and pushed against the wall going past Alex wounding him deeply on the arm. They then went after Ash though she was using her wings to deflex their attacks. Eventually she used her kagune to start attacking the figure. They started dodging once more and Ash smirked before pushing off the cement to go straight at them using the velocity to stab her kagune through their arm.</div>"
3395,Supernatural Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75971-supernatural-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-23 19:19:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Alex growled at the pain that coursed through his arm, though it healed quickly with not getting hit with silver. Both brothers started attacking getting through the cowd of half breeds that surrounded the leader. Putting his clawed hand to the leaders throat. ""You make a move with that Kagune and hurt me or anyone else I'll slit your throat in one quick move.""</div>"

They threatened and moved their leg back and around Alex's leg tripping him to go backwards before jumping up on to a platform in the corner of the room. ""All of you are children, there's no way you can beat an adult."" They said and Crimson growled staring at them. She shot her wings at them again this time aimed at the mask. As the shards hit the mask it been to fall off once it fell off a woman with long black hair and green eyes stood there looking at them. ""Very clever, you can't do anything with my identity though."" She said and Crimson smirked before taking off her mask and throwing it on the floor. ""That'd be wrong,""</div>"

Looking at the woman, his body hurt though he ignored the pain looking from crimson to the woman. So this was the person that issued the orders on torturing him, good to know though she would die soon. Though he took heed in sera's words Korra wasn't in her own body.</div>"

If I do you'll kill me and if I don't I'm the only one who know where she is."" She said with a smirk. Ash smiled, ""it's either you tell me or we'll paralyze your body and starve you unti, you do. Starving is rather painful for us ghoul isn't it."" She shot back aggressively. </div>"

Knowing his anger had a hold of him, he didn't need anyone doing something stupid right about now. Alex turned the thought in his head, wondering where Korra was before frowning in thought. ""Luke do you think you'll be able to find Korra like track down where her sense of mind is through the bonds."" Luke smiled, ""your brilliant Alex.""</div>"

There`s no way any of you can kill me when your beloved friend is inside my body."" She said and glared. ""If you don`t believe me just try to find her."" She said and Ash looked up at her with a glare. Sera took a deep breath and walked over to Alex. ""I want to try a new spell. It`s not perfected yet, but it will get Korra out of her body.""</div>"

The only thing is, the spell isn`t tested. All of us could be body swapped in the process with Korra`s consciousness in one of us."" Sera said with a small nervous smile at the end of it. This honestly could go good or very badly. It was all up to all of them what happened though. If she didn`t do it they`d be stuck here trying to get Korra back. Ash looked at Flare. ""I`ll repeat one last time, let Korra go!""</div>"

Her smirk dropped as she saw Alex get into a defensive position in front of the chanting Sera. Sera started chanting a spell while her staff started to glow. She tried to just focus on getting Korra out of Flare's body but as she feared everyone in the room started to glow with the spell and before anyone could stop it they'd all be passed out in different bodies. Sera, Ash, and Flare fell to the floor once Sera chanted the last word.</div>"

Sitting up Sera looked at the body she'd taken over before looking at the three boys. Her face was worried as she gaze at the other two who were waking up. Ash opened her eyes and sat up. Her eyes immediately looked at the blue hair around her shoulders. Looking around she saw the body of Flare awake looking calm. ""Sera?"" She asked and Sera nodded. Both of their eyes widened as they looked at Ash's body. Flare awoke and stood up holding her head. ""What the hell did you idiots do to me!"" She yelled before realizing the voice coming out wasn't hers. Her eyes immediately went to her body across the room. ""What the hell!""</div>"

""I can't perform magic in Flare's body. Another fae cast the spell that put Korra in her body in the first place. Crimson would have to perform the spell to put us back to normal. In order to do that I need to teach her how to use magic effectively and then also teach her a soul release spell. The spell will have to be handled correctly by all of you once it's done. Our souls will have to be transfered to bottles and then put into the right bodies. Korra's soul will be able to be strained out of Flare's that way.

Personality: Kuro is the nicest person you will probably ever meet. He will never hesitate to help another in need, even if it means getting himself in trouble for it. He is always kind and honest, never telling a single lie, no matter what the case, because of this, he may sound offensive at times. Kuro is carefree and playful, he enjoys the little things in life. He cannot see the bad in things, nor the bad in people. Instead, he sees good in everything, always looking on the bright side and trusting way too easily. He has let himself starve before, just to feed a hungry animal in need. He never takes more than he needs in anything, and is always giving more than he should, leaving himself out. He is always forgiving, even though others have let him down time and time again. He believes if he is patient, then they will change. To him violence is never the option. 

History: Kuro is a prince who has been taught the seven heavenly virtues. He has always been taught that if he ever breaks one of the virtues, he will be punished, not by the parents, but by life, dying of a early age. His mother and father wanted him to have a life they could never have, to be kind and honest with everyone. They taught him to never lie, no matter what the case may be. Kuro was always pampered and protected. He was a special boy, a boy who never had to grow up. His parents always wanted him to have his innocence. One day, his father died of a sudden heart attack, leaving Kuro's mother to look after him on her own, Kuro never got over it, he was still very young, what's even worse, is that his mother committed suicide soon after. Kuro was now on his own and became depressed, he was no longer eating or drinking. When he finally got hold of some food, he gave it to a starving cat, saving it's life, that is when he realized, he could understand animals. They spoke and soon became best friends, curing Kuro of his depression and returning him to his carefree child like personality. Everyone thought he was crazy, talking to Yoruichi constantly, so eventually, he decided to use the magic book which his parents told him to keep, and never use until after their deaths. He casted a spell on his pet Yoruichi. Allowing her to talk freely.

She is very kind and forgiving like Kuro, she hates to see others getting hurt and if she can, she will do whatever it takes to protect both parties. Yoruichi will always analyze every situation and every move, She studies everything, because of this she is very patient, and normally very slow, considering everything.

This was the sound of the finals. The tournaments were coming to an end, there were only four fighters left and whoever won would get a tour around the castle, and to meet the princess. Princess Seninia sat with her mother and father beside her, high on top of the arena, there she watched all the battles, and so far, like every single time, every single year, she predicted the winner. It was amazing, she knew who exactly was going to win. There, the crowd cheered and waited for Princess Seninia's decision. Who was going to win? She stood up slowly, and stepped forward. She also had to make a small speech for the four fighters. She really didn't like the tournaments. She hated fighting, violence was never the answer.

""I congratulate you four, Tygra and Leo, Jackie and Jamie. You have come far in this tournament, you have worked hard, but now the tournament is at an end. I can already see who the winner is. Congratulations Jamie, and I am sorry for all of you. For many years now, I have been called a miracle child. Ever since I began predicting the fights. These tournaments are no longer what they used to be, it is no longer entertaining, knowing who wins.""

She then sat herself down and sighed, and as she did, Leo quickly got angry, in fact, he got so angry, he began to shout and swear at Princess Seninia. Then, he took it one step too far, he threw a knife at her which of coursed was stopped by one of her guards. 

""You will pay, you will suffer for what you have done! Tomorrow night, your death will be certain! I will make sure of it! You will regret not making me the winnder!""

The King quickly stood up straight after and stared down at Leo. He didn't care if Leo would of won or not, even if he did, he was not to see Princess Seninia now. He had just threatened her life, and that he was not having. Guards quickly rushed in and grabbed Leo, holding him down.

""Leo! You have just decided your fate! You will regret ever threatening Princess Seninia. One man cannot change a thing, especially when they are no longer living! There isn't anyone, who can defeat the Royal Guards. Princess Seninia is perfectly safe, I guarantee that. Guards, take him away!""

He then watched as the guards took him away, he smiled and sat down. Tygra, Jamie, and Jackie remained. Princess Seninia then stood up once more and stepped up, she looked down to the three with a sigh.

""You do not have to fight, you can leave now if you wish. Violence is not the answer""

She sat herself down, and the crowd all cheered.</div>"

She often did this, for the simple fact that it made life seem more interesting, more...alive. The young girl watched, and calculated as someone who looked in between minor and commoner rise in front of her. She licked her lips, and darted forward, making the snatch, disappearing back into the shadows, a handful of coins in her hands. She quickly shoved it into one of the various pockets over her clothes. The young girl smiled with triumph, and continued watching. 

As the Princess addressed the crowd, Lily was watching for Marks.  <span class=""bb-i"">""-Princess Seninia is perfectly safe-""</span> Lily looked up at that speech. No one was perfectly safe, if you knew how to sneak about. If you knew how to be invisible. If you knew how to be nothing. Maybe she should so them that. She would never dream of hurting the Princess, but what if in their ignorance something happened? She mused all this from the shadows, eyes flickering over the crowd. Finally deciding that she couldn't risk staying there any longer, she made her way out of the crowd, and back to the streets. 

She had made enough for food for herself, and other street rats. Often, she liked to give them food, knowing what it was to go hungry. As long as she had enough money for her mentor, it was alright. He knew she did it, but as long as she gave him most of her winnings for the day, all was well. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">***</span></div>

Jackie watched as Leo virtually had a breakdown, and threatened the Princess. Was he mental? Threatening the Princess like that? She shook her head, as if embarrassed at her comrades behavior. She rolled her eyes, and waited for the scene to be over. As the Princess spoke once more, saying that violence was not the answer, she sighed, and merely shifted, ready to continue. She was tall, and willowy, and it seemed as if a good strong wind might knock her over. 

Yet she was strong, despite her thin frame. Her hair was short, and pulled up away from her face, in anticipating of the fight. She watched the other two, studying them. If the Princess was right, and Jackie didn't seem a reason for her not to be, then Jamie was the one clear opponent. Could she change that outcome?

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">***</span></div>

Jamie simply stood throughout all the theatrics. While the Princess's speech revealed that he would be the winner, Jamie didn't consider that important. What was the point of coming, of being involved in this, to simply be declared the winner? 

He very nearly joined the guards in dispense of Leo, but stayed where he was. The young man considered Leo a total idiot, and knew the guards would take care of him. He saw that Jackie was watching him, and figured that was normal. 

As the Princess finished speaking, he said <span class=""bb-b"">""Violence may not be the answer, but the simple fact is, we are all warriors. And the point of fighting should be to pit our skills against each other, to become better fighters, better protectors, for without that, there would be no one suitable to guard you, Princess. You may not find these tournaments entertaining, My lady, but for me its a chance to be recognized and seen as a valuable asset to the guards, to those that just took that fool away""</span> he made sure his voice was loud, and that he could be heard, bowing respectfully before he began talking.</div>"

She then opened her eyes. She gave a soft sigh, with a nod with her head.

""Without further ado, let the battle begin. Good luck Jamie, you'll need it.""

She nodded, and then sat down to watch the fight. It was Tygra vs Jackie vs Jamie. Tygra just smiled, and cracked his neck, this would be an interesting fight. He stepped forward, and held his arms ready.

""Well, let's begin then. I will change destiny, I will win!""

He smiled, and then waited for the first move.</div>"

This is my chace!""</span> he roared, moving smoothly towards Tygra, deliberately favoring his right, he swung out with his sword, but was ready to counter attack and to block if need be. He kept his eye on Jackie as well.

jackie stepped back, looking for any weakness in her two opponents,  sliding into a easy position that she could attack or defend in, feeling like both men were just going to focus on each other. So be it. She would just have to take advantage of it</div>"

Two families, One prince, one princess, both children. Each one has a different ability, while the Prince focuses on defending himself, the princess depends on others to defend her. Every year, a grand battle is held in the arena, a competition. The winner gets a nice £20,000 in cash, as well as getting to meet the princess, and even a chance to become her personal guard. Now, you enter this competition, and you win, you take the tour and go home, awaiting the decision from the king and queen, to see if you become a guard or not. Then, at midnight, the castle is attacked, and one of the guards rushes to you, hoping you would come to her aid.

Starting Information: Zhijiru was infected at a young age with an eye that turns all goopy and leaks black mud or ink when it isn't covered. He's is outcasted by his fellow villagers because of his afliction. Not much people know about his affliction and is considered a myth or rumor even to most people from his own village. He is trying to stay out of trouble to regain a better status among his people to gain a sense of belonging. But he has to travel from village to village to sell alone, with no family to help him. Sometimes thugs and bandits steal from him and there is really nothing he can do about it. He just hopes that no one will kill him as he tries to find his place in the world.

The house that his family left behind after they died was one of the cheaper made straw and wood houses. Because there wasn't enough family members to delegate any tasks to anymore, the house was already half crumbled due to his long travels. Each time he returned the house was in a poorer condition than when he left it. Sometimes, signs that indicated it wasn't just nature's doing. And he didn't have the time, energy, or money to keep fixing it again and again. He decided it was time for him to save up money to buy a better house that could stand up on it's own for a longer time. Maybe invest in a lock. He expected that it would take years though.

In the early morning before he set out to the marketplace he grabbed what few gold, silver, and copper coins he had in a bag and quickly dashed into a forested area near his house. He stood in a clearing, checked the landmarks and dug into the ground using a thin stone and his bare hands. He buried some coins.

He had learned from past experiences to not leave money in his house, or keep too much money on him. Villagers, despite usually scoffing at a distance, also stole from him when he was away. It was desperate times in a once close and happy community. He kept a few coins with him, in case he needed to buy equipment, food, shelter, or other items to barter with. He buried the rest, knowing well that the forests were deemed as cursed for what happened to himself and others. No one would come here looking for coins. Villagers avoided this area as much as possible. Zhijiru took a short cut home off the path, nearly tripping on a corpse. But that was normal around the cursed forest.

After returning home he packed his goods in his wagon. Two hens, a rooster, eggs, his dog Diesel, a young Norwegian Elkhound, and various but few crops, food, and the last two sets of china his mother used to make by hand and sell by the dozens. Lastly, the last sword his father made, hoping to get at least 100 gold coins for it. He always resisted displaying it for sale, because of his fear of departing from it and the memories of his father along with it. His wagon was being pulled by a single ox. His last strong ox. If he lost him, he would have to travel and sell wares by foot.

After he finished filling his cart he guided his ox along past the busy streets by walking alongside it. It was dangerous otherwise, a kid might startle it as a prank. People from the village averted their gaze from Zhijiru. Either they were afraid that he would also curse them, or that they believed that they were above him. One large man spat in his face as he passed by. Zhijiru rubbed it off and kept going. It wasn't unusual treatment, but rage was still welling up inside him. After the streets cleared up he climbed up the wagon front and drove the ox to the busy marketplace that linked up several towns and villages. Some of which, Zhijiru have not visited or heard of. The lonely drive always helped calm him down.

By the time he reached the market and set up shop it was in the afternoon. He set up everything for display in a stall in front of his wagon, his ox tied up to the wagon next to it. The only thing hidden was the sword and half of the money he carried with him. Business was going slowly, as usual. Not often did people want to buy from a dirty poor kid. Sometimes Zhijiru thought the sales he got were just to humor or pity him.</div>"

He had been there earlier by a few hours. He would not normally do that, but the potion shop he used to work in burned down mysteriously, along with its owner. Well, he got his payday before that, so he could last a bit before having to find work again.

""Jiru! You're late!"" chirped Luca. He grabbed an apple, and looked upon every corner of it. Looked fine. Probably tasted good, and worked well as an alchemical component. Placing a silver coin on the wagon, Luca bit into the apple and munched noisily.

With a grin and a wink at Zhijiru, he leaned on the wagon and looked skywards. ""Everything the same, huh? I wanted to ask my employer if she knew a way to cure your eye, but it kind of went tits up when she died in a fire. Any news?""

Finishing the apple, he threw the core into a nearby ditch.</div>"

""Oh God, not Luca,"" Zhijiru thought.

There was always something contagious about Luca's cheerfulness that somehow always caught Zhijiru by surprise, it was more of the idea or concept of Luca that annoyed him. That damn silver hair reminded him of his father. Zhijiru never spoke about his father to Luca, but the opposite personalities made the encounters more bearable. They were clearly not the same person. Zhijiru took the coin and placed it out of sight and under the wagon.

""My house, if you want to call that garbage heap, is a wreck. I need to move out, build a new one, or buy one."" Zhijiru slumped over his stall counter. ""But a few silver coins each trip to the market won't help me. I'll be an old man before I can change anything, and that'll only be if I don't get robbed until then."" Zhijiru looked back at the wagon, inside had his father's sword hidden. He knew he'd never sell it, but always contemplated the 'what if' if he did.

""And stop trying to get me cured, I feel like something is wrong with me enough as it is."" Zhijiru itched the bandage that covered his eye. He diagonally wrapped white bandages around his head and over his left eye and left ear. It wasn't the most classy way to cover his affliction, but he didn't know any pirates.</div>"
3567,Starting Again (Fleeter and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75976-starting-again-fleeter-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-30 06:19:00,Ontos,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Aww,"" Luca cooed. He popped around to one of the hens and starting poking around it. The hen clucked disparagingly, as if proud of itself even as it sat in the cage with the other, more timid chicken.

""Ya' haven't reached the 'twilight of your life', yet, Jiru!"" Luca waved his hand out in a grandiose gesture as he said 'twilight', imitating the deep voice of the average well-spoken storyteller. ""The day is young! Do something! Maybe if you can train hard, and get a proper eyepatch...""

Luca pondered on the thought. He imagined Zhijiru, wearing a set of full platemail. A black eye-patch covering his afflicted eye, and a greatsword hanging from his back. A well-trained mercenary ready to fight for gold, God or country, and a little sexy too.

""Zhijiru, the Land Pirate! Zhijiru the Iron!"" he rattled off potential nicknames as he poked the annoyed hen. ""Zhijiru the Dark Knight. Zhijiru the—""

The young man yelped as the hen bit his finger, and clucked disapprovingly as he snatched his hand away from the cage. ""You need to tame this hen before she goes on a rampage, Jiru,"" said Luca, poking his head around the corner of the wagon to look at the shopkeeper right in the face with a toothy grin. ""She's a natural-born killer, I tell you! Arm her with a sword and she will take down knights and kings!""

Luca laughed, rubbing his sore, chicken-bit finger.</div>"
3568,Starting Again (Fleeter and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75976-starting-again-fleeter-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-30 07:21:00,Fleeter,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Zhijiru pulled Luca's finger in front of his face to look at it. The beak of his hens were sharp, mostly because they were wild. It likely would have cut into the skin, at least. But when he saw that it didn't, his eye throbbed at him. He gently squeezed the finger, and a single drop came out. ""Don't just leave it open!"" Zhijiru said, referring to the wounded finger. put one hand into his pocket and pulled out some spare bandages. He licked the blood off of Luca's finger and wrapped it in a bandage. Zhijiru did it without thinking, especially since he got an infection in his eye from leaving it open at the wrong place at the wrong time. As rare as the parasite in his eye was, he didn't want to risk it on a friend-- but as the seconds went on, he realized that was probably not something he should have done, and looked away a slight bit embarrassed. ""A-Anyways. There aren't much heroes here. And not any I'd have the courage to approach. Maybe if I had something to offer them in return they would consider training me.""</div>"
3569,Starting Again (Fleeter and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75976-starting-again-fleeter-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-30 07:35:00,Ontos,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Luca's face turned red the moment he saw Zhijiru's tongue stick out. Where the tongue went wasn't as worrying as the fact that he had suddenly thought of it in the first place, but that didn't help.

""T-thanks."" Luca forced out his appreciation, even as the environment between the two just became a lot more nerve-wracking. His father told him once that ""Make people laugh if you can't do anything to help.""

""A... curse is almost as good as a talent,"" muttered Luca, staring at the bandaged finger. The linens Zhijiru spent on this bandage were generous, more so than Luca would have bothered putting on himself.

""And you're alive. That's what you can offer them."" He scratched his hair a little nervously. ""If that helps at all. LOOK AT THE LOVELY WEATHER TODAY!"" Luca shouted out to the sky in a ridiculous attempt to change the subject, and even the passers-by noticed Luca's yelling.

With a quiet, mild-mannered squeak, Luca retreated to the hens, and glared at the feisty chicken who bit him. ""I'm buying you for supper.""

""Cluck!"" the chicken replied. It sounded like it said: ""Bring it, bitch!""</div>"

He peeked out past his arm watching the people go by after realizing it was nothing. ""You seem very itchy for adventure today. All this talk about heroes and such. And honestly, it's starting to get to me."" Zhijiru paused, ""In a good way-- I mean. Maybe I should close up early and we could do something. Not sure what though...""

Zhijiru paused, taking a deep breath. ""It's not like I have parents that can stop me from being irresponsible anymore."" He said it, not at all feeling like the death of his family was holding him down, but somehow freeing. He took another inhale, not as deep.

Then he sat down and held up Diesel the Norwegian Elkhound on his lap. ""Or maybe I could just stay here and be a good boy, make money... and such,"" he said, nodding to himself in approval.</div>"

""Cluck!"" the hen clucked at him, turning her head right after she did so.

Luca glared back at the chicken. ""You say that again, and I'm plucking the feathers off you, one by one."" Of course, Luca couldn't <span class=""bb-i"">understand</span> chicken speech, but he guessed what the chicken said and replied appropriately.

""Cluck. Cluck."" Translation: I'll bite your fucking balls off.

""Good luck with that, dinner,"" Luca snorted. That was physically impossible, for reasons he'd rather not discuss.

""Cluck!"" Translation: Eunuch!

Luca shook his head. ""Jiru, I'm buying this spiteful oversized dinner. How much?"" He popped his head back to the counter, looking at Zhijiru... and his dog. Luca was a cat person, but Diesel was a big sweetheart that he could tolerate.

""You're not making money, Zhijiru, the way you handle business. I've seen funeral homes with more customer loyalty.""</div>"

Her clothing was of a simple farmer, but it was a lot cleaner and she appeared to be wearing light make-up. ""You seem like a lively bunch,"" she smiled. ""I see that you have chicke--"" Zhijiru pointed quickly to the exact chicken that Luca was talking too, ""I have this fiiiine chicken here, only for 20 silver."" Zhijiru usually sold his chickens for 10 silver, but this was his way of getting back at Luca's comment. Diesel hopped off Jiru's lap, and had an interest in the woman, slowly approaching her.</div>"

Zhijiru was definitely overcharging the woman. Perhaps he was really so destitute that he needed every opportunity.

""Sure, 20 silver it is, Jiru. Does the lady want to buy?"" chirped Luca. He wouldn't get to finish off the chicken himself, but if the pretty woman bought and ate the chicken herself, it was no skin off Luca's back.

He took a moment to whisper into Jiru's ear. ""Really, 20 silver? What are friends for?""</div>"

Diesel creeped up closer to the woman and sniffed her ankle. ""Oh, goodness. What a cute dog, is he for sale too?"" Diesel flinched back a bit every time she moved slightly. Dogs usually did flinching as a playful gesture, but Diesel seemed to do it cautiously.

""No, he isn't."" Zhijiru crawled under his counter and pulled Diesel back. But Diesel kept going back to her. Zhijiru shrugged and picked up the cage the chicken was in. Zhijiru stuck his tongue at Luca instead of responding to his comment, (away from the woman so she wouldn't see,) and put it on the counter.

The woman looked at the chicken for a few seconds, smiled, and handed the 20 silver coins. Zhijiru took a moment to make sure that they were real, checking the weight of them and seeing if any paint would come off but everything checked out. The odd thing was, Zhijiru was surprised she took the chicken for that price, and especially after Luca's comment about it not being tame.

""Thanks,"" said the woman, smiling, as she took the chicken away.

Zhijiru kept watching the woman as she walked away. She didn't walk like a farmer, she swayed her hips left and right needlessly, and honestly she didn't smell like one either (not to be a creep or anything). Why would a farmer agree to such a price, he almost meant it like a joke, if anything. There were other small things that didn't sit well with him. As he watched her, for a moment her silhouette changed. He rubbed his eyes and she disappeared into the crowd.

Jiru shook his head, he probably couldn't see her well, after all, he only had one eye to go off of. ""Sorry about that Luca, I didn't actually think she'd take it, but I wasn't going to say no if she did."" He tossed a single coin in the air and caught it.</div>"

If she was going incognito, she was doing a poor job at it, especially the part where she suddenly disappeared into the crowd. Of course, guessing what she was pretending not to be was going to be tricky, but Luca could try.

""I bet you your chicken that's a hero or someone, pretending to be a local,"" Luca commented off-handedly. ""Oh, and did you know your tongue's black?""

He lied, but maybe it was time to shake up Jiru a bit. Crouching down at the counter, Luca glanced lazily in Jiru's direction. ""Looks like you're eating something nice tonight. Or, well, at least, eating.""

Luca let out a little laugh. Jiru was dirt-poor, and Luca was only <span class=""bb-i"">averagely</span> poor, but any form of charity from Luca to Jiru seemed wrong. Unless Jiru was in the most dire of circumstances, but he never actually reached that point. Luca couldn't count how many times Jiru almost became too poor to even survive, though. The key word, in this case, was almost.</div>"

He tend to that sometimes. ""<span class=""bb-b"">WHAT?!</span>"" Jiru said, and attempted to look at his tongue to see if it was black. But then he realized Luca was just trying to get his attention. He took a jab at Luca's upper arm in return. ""Why would anyone pretend to be a farmer? Being a farmer sucks.""

""Let's eat somewhere tonight, my treat. I mean, of course, it has to be in my budget. It's the least I can do for selling the chicken you had such interest in.""

Zhijiru looked around. ""Where's Diesel?"" His eyes got bigger as he looked around frantically.</div>"

Days where he could sponge off Zhijiru and anyone else were rare, and he would utterly take advantage of that. ""Sure! At least the bastard chicken's going to die.""

Zhijiru was only looking at the surface. A hero would be disguised as a farmer to avoid suspicion, and save the world while in disguise. ""She's probably hunting down evil incognito. She only <span class=""bb-i"">looks</span> like a farmer now, but she's dispensing justice.""

When his friend mentioned Diesel, he looked around too. Diesel often tried to sniff his groin for one reason or another, and he was sort of glad that Diesel wasn't doing that now. But where was the dog, anyway?

""I don't know. Is he pissing on a lamppost?""</div>"

He was a smart dog, and never wandered too far. If he did, he was always trusted to come back. He was more vigorous than Zhijiru was, and he surely had to get real sustenance exploring while his master wasn't looking, even though he master never actually noticed when he had left in previous occasions. It dawned on him, that the dog had taken a liking to the fake farmer. Suddenly the ideas in Zhijiru's head started going at a thousand miles per hour. Did Diesel follow her? What if she had better food than Zhijiru did and decided to stay with her? What if she was going to EAT HIM? Oh the humanity! He imagined a slightly pudgier version of Diesel wagging his short curly tail, eating like a king. Zhijiru couldn't have that.

Zhijiru turned to Luca, and roughly grabbed Luca's shoulders, ""Stay here! I'm going to go get him!"" Zhijiru hopped the counter and started to run in the direction of the woman. Not thinking at all that Luca was not to be trusted with... well... anything.</div>"

He really must have loved the dog a lot. So much so that he left Luca in charge of the store. The worried look upon Zhijiru's face as he looked into the distance, especially when his face twisted into so many depictions of terror, was a mixture of horrifying and just a tinge of amusing to Luca. Zhijiru looked terrified, but cartoonishly so.

The young man stared in awe as Zhijiru vaulted over the store counter and towards some random direction. He forgot where the woman went, and she was hopefully unrelated to this. With Jiru come, he could at least do something.

Crouching under the counter, he lifted off his shirt and adjusted his chest-bindings. Luca called himself a man, but biology decided otherwise. It was fortunate that Zhijiru never knew. Once that was done, he stood up, picked off an apple from the counter, and placed another silver coin of his own.

He bit into it and munched noisily, watching passers-by with a lazy gaze.</div>"

He couldn't spot the lady anywhere. Thankfully Diesel was trotting along rather carelessly. The happy dog seemed like he was lost with that dumb face he had. Tongue hanging out, tail wagging, and nearly hopping in his step. But beyond that Diesel knew exactly where he was going. Zhijiru grabbed the dog, and startled him in the process. Which was unusual since Zhijiru snuck up on him all the time and the dog always seemed to know he was coming. The dog squirmed in his arms. ""H-Hey!"" The dog jumped off of him and started to run off. ""What the heck is wrong with you?!"" He exclaimed frustrated before running to catch up.

He followed the dog left and right and around people before the dog stopped at a dead end. Exhausted, Zhijiru could only muster a, ""Ha... you... f-fat... dog,"" breathing in between every word. The dog put his paws against a scrap metal on the wall and started pushing on it, but then jumped up and down as if super excited to meet someone. His tail wagging frantically. ""Arf, arf!""

The metal went, <span class=""bb-i"">bang bang</span>, as the dog jumped against the scrap. <span class=""bb-i"">Bang bang bang</span>.

A voice could be heard past the wall of the alley. ""Who's making that racket?!"" it sounded like a very, very angry man. Zhijiru swooped up his dog, more forcefully this time and hid behind a barrel. It smelled like rotting fish. A man came out, swinging a butcher's knife, trying to see if he could locate the perpetrator. Zhijiru held Diesel's mouth shut, resulting in a very quiet, ""Omph, omph"" as Diesel's cheek's inflated and deflated with each attempted bark. The man soon mumbled to himself and shut the door behind him. Zhijiru sighed in relief.

However, Zhijiru heard a familiar, ""cluck cluck"" coming from the wall next to him. Diesel pushed away again and stuck his nose in the crack of the wall. Jiru stared at him for a second and just thought, ""What are you doing? You stupid dog..."" He pulled the dog away, and decided to take the chance to look through the little hole. He peered downwards into it, as it appeared that he was seeing into a basement. ""Cluck cluck cluck"" The chicken was there, and so was a familiar voice, but in a not-so-familiar body. The dirty farmer with her hair up, was now a shorter, younger woman, with long black silky hair. ""We meet again at last, chicken,"" said the woman.

He thought to himself, ""She's talking to a chicken. She's crazy. Just like Luca."" He moved away from the crack in the wall, and the dog figured it was his turn again. But when the dog stuck his nose back into the door some of the loose stone gave way and fell to the ground. ""What?!"" The woman shrieked in surprise and looked towards the crack in the wall above her. She saw a little muzzle poking through with a silently sniffing nose. She didn't immediately recognize it, but she put the two and two together. Zhijiru could hear her walking towards them. Right after he yanked diesel out. He heard a crash in the room, and frantic clucking. Zhijiru dashed back to meet up with Luca.

""Luca! Luca!""

As soon as he got back though, he made sure to leash Diesel up to the wagon.</div>"

Luca grinned, and held the apple in his hand. He winked at the young lady inquiring, trying to pull off the 'handsome' demeanour to her. ""Two silver, mademoiselle. It's fresh, and sweet for palate, and but not too sweet.""

The lady giggled, before picking up seven of the apples and placing them into her basket. ""I'll take the lot. That'll be 18 silver, right?""

This business thing seemed easy. The apples were the last bunch of the lot he managed to sell. The chickens went for 12 silver each to a friendly old man, a few bushels of grain were sold for a total of 7 silver. All that remained at the shop were the profits of today, and a ox munching on some grass with a lazy gaze in its eyes. The sales totalled 71 silver today.

Zhijiru would be impressed. Or more probably, too horrified to speak. Luca smiled to himself as his fingers traced the coins, one-by-one.

""Hey, mister?"" Luca's attention was attracted by a middle-aged man, looking like a veteran farmer by a simple glance. ""I see that your shop's empty, but is that ox for sale?""

Luca shook his head, and went back to counting the coins.

""I really need one, and this one is a fine specimen. How about 10 gold coins?""

Luca blinked, and stared incredulously at the farmer. High quality oxen went for 8 gold coins, the last time he recalled. Even if Zhijiru busted his ass to get this one, it would still be a net profit.

""S-sure,"" stuttered Luca. The farmer placed 10 golden coins (all of them tested by Luca's teeth) on the table, untied the ox, and went his way with a small wave at the young man.

Staring at the 10 gold coins, he began to laugh. He <span class=""bb-i"">wasn't</span> sure if Zhijiru had ever seen a gold coin! He still continued to laugh hysterically, even as his friend returned with his dog. Luca did not even notice Jiru's return.</div>"

Zhijiru said, now realizing how empty-- or... desolate his store is. ""What did you sell?!"" He exclaimed, not sounding excited, but rather wondering where his stuff went. Especially the ox. ""You might have well have just sold the wagon while you were at it!"" Zhijiru was a bit impressed, but his jealousy of his selling skills overshadowed any compliment he could have otherwise mustered.</div>"

""I... can't... oh gods I'm dying!"" he spat out words between his hysterics. He really should have tried to sell the wagon, too, he realised, but the laughter pretty much killed all rational thought in his mind.

Luca took in a few deep breaths as he crouched at the stall, his hands hanging off the opposite edge of the counter. With a grin, and a wink, he paused for dramatic effect, before saying a single word.

""<span class=""bb-i"">Every— wait for it... thing.</span>"" Luca clicked his fingers at the end of his sentence.</div>"

He realized this though, and tried to take some deep breaths. Zhijiru had one thing on his mind and that was his father's sword. He hopped into the wagon, and lifted wooden seat. Thank god he didn't sell the wagon, at least, as the sword was still hidden there. He took it out and held it in between his arms. He laid down on the empty but still dirty wagon floor, looking straight up. He was probably going to buy more than a few drinks after this.

He laid there for a bit and started to laugh lightly. Then he laughed a little louder and louder each time until he had streams running down both sides of his face. He smiled as he settled down.

""You're an ass, Luca.""</div>"

He stayed silent as Zhijiru dug for something in the wagon, and smiled as Zhijiru cried and laughed at the same time, clutching the sword. Wait, when did Zhijiru get that sword, anyway?

""You have a sword! And don't call me an ass!"" Luca placed his hands at his, fortunately, not-so-feminine hips, and shot daggers with his eyes for just a moment.

Cupping the coins with his hands, Luca walked over to the wagon and let the coins fall onto the wagon interior, and smiled as he leaned against the wagon on the outside, just beside Zhijiru.

""So, what do you want to do with this money?""</div>"

Maybe a chicken of their own. ""Let's eat something. I'm starving!"" Zhijiru took the sword sling and slung it on his back. The sword was in it's black scabbard and the hilt had engraved designs of white cranes. It wasn't a big sword, just a typical katana. Zhijiru got the rest of his money he had hidden, you know, the ones he kept away from the counter in case he was robbed. It was in a travel bag where the katana was hidden and also wore it against his back. Jiru pointed dramatically down the road. ""And thus the party of two begins their journey! The journey to well deserved FOOD!""

Jiru jumped down the side of the wagon, beckoning to Luca to join him.</div>"

He began to ponder what to eat. Meat, soup, bread... perhaps a buffet would only suffice for the best of times. There was a shop nearby that sold mouth-watering meat pies of every variety, even if he believed that cats were sometimes used for filling when they ran out of other sources. Another shop sold great soup dishes, though there were occasional rumours of human bones being used for soup stock.

They needed to get better shops around here, or less gossiping hens.</div>"

Zhijiru took Luca by his wrist and started running along the market happily smiling and excited, ""Forget that anyways! There's this place I've always wanted to go to!"" Zhijiru continued to run across the street and turned out of the busy streets. In the distance was a lonely stone and wooden shop, with smoke coming out of the chimney. It had a faded dark red, nearly brown porch and sign saying, ""The Crimson Cottage."" As they neared Zhijiru let go of Luca and ran to the porch, which at the end of the railing, there was a view below as the porch was lifted over short cliff. In the distance was a forest, and the sounds of birds chirping could be heard from the cottage. Zhijiru took in a deep breath and smelled the delicious steaks cooking inside. There currently wasn't anyone here, and it was usually a quiet place. Their stakes were expensive, and it was usually only filled when someone slayed a monster or celebrated the findings of treasure.

""Come on, Luca!"" Zhijiru waved as he entered the cottage, as he couldn't stand waiting any longer. The bell at the top of the door rung as the door opened, to notify the owner.

Inside there was the grill in the middle of the room. Stools, chairs, benches and tables all around for the gatherings. There was a back room kitchen that was sectioned off by a counter that was currently being wiped down by a large but friendly looking man named Bill.

""Why, I have some unlikely customers today."" Bill looked at Zhijiru's sword strapped behind his back and started to chuckle lightly. Zhijiru clearly didn't look like a fighter, but in some ways he was reluctant assume that they were going to ask for a handout. He tried to nicely educate them, incase they thought it was a regular old restaurant. ""This here is the Crimson Cottage boy, these won't be cheap meals or drinks you'll be having and assuming you've taken in any of the aroma here, I assure you they taste even better than it smells.""</div>"

The Crimson Cottage. The most expensive shop in the village, and one rightfully so. Steaks worth the price of slaves in old tales, and drinks that bathed the tongue in wondrous yet sensible flavours that hurt the purse more than a talented bandit.

The bell's ring made him cringe, though more of a surprise than anything else. Zhijiru's enthusiasm was quite appreciated, but Luca didn't expect them to eat <span class=""bb-i"">here</span> of all places.

No one was here, other than the man managing the counter. A man called Bill, and probably someone who could beat up Zhijiru and Luca both with his bare hands in normal circumstances. Luca spent a moment to pray that the situation would never get that far, before following Jiru into the store proper.

Bill's introduction to the store wasn't necessary (Luca's former mentor used to eat here once or twice, usually after a good deal), but the explanation calmed down Luca a bit. Perhaps Jiru wouldn't do anything risky.

""Yeah..."" Luca decided to let Zhijiru do the talking. A bad move would make him <span class=""bb-i"">persona non grata</span>. ""Jiru... what do you intend on getting? I'll just have that.""</div>"

Expensive, actually, but cheaper. He ordered a smaller sized steak for two, because if he didn't specify, they would have ended up with portions the size of a party. Heroes did tend to eat a lot here, so the portions were sized specifically for them. When they sat down and waited for their meals, Zhijiru looked at Luca with a determination in his eye. ""Luca, let's get out of here."" Zhijiru paused for a bit, almost as if he needed to think about what he was saying, to make sure he wasn't going to take it back again. ""Let's never come back too.""

The world will be medieval with some fantasy aspects. Magic can be used, but it is myth to most people. But common within their own niches. People claim there are gods, but few, if any live to see them. Occassionally there are monsters, in which heroes or warriors are hired to kill them. But there aren't much monsters, thus there aren't much heroes. There might be a reigon with a dragon, or a single unicorn left. But ultimately most people go about their dreary normal way.

Standing at 5'9"" Silas is a man of average height, he has an athletic build and short black hair. He has a scar running across his chin and various other scars under his armor.

Bio: Silus was born into the Cross family of Alvina, A family revered as Dragon Hunters and as such he was trained from an early age to become a Dragon Hunter in his own right. The training was harsh and unforgiving but the young Silus endured wanting to prove his worth to the family. And although the process was long Silus slowly grew into a promising hunter. And by the age of 16 he was allowed on his first real hunt.

Silus' early hunts into the Takari Wilds were very successful and even at a young age his score began to grow. And at the age of 18 he slew his first Drake and was bestowed with his very own Dragonsbane Dagger to prove himself a full member of the Cross family. Silus' score continued to rise and he was a shining example of what the Cross family was about, and by the age of 25 he received the great honor of being chosen to represent the Cross family in a Shadowlands Hunt. 

The journey to the Shadowlands was difficult enough, a three month boat ride across the Great Sea and waters plagued with all manor of beasts. Before they had even reached land Silus had had his fill of these new lands and strange creatures. But that was only the start of his journey through the Shadowlands. The group spent a month hunting a Green Wyvern and in the hunt had to fight off many other beasts. Unfortunately Silus was apart of the Scouting group the day the Wyvern was killed. The unfortunate part was that the scout team didn't find the Wyvern the Wyvern found them. The beast was upon the group in a flash and the fight was over quickly. The scout team was massacred and Silus was left for dead by the beast.

Reinforcements soon arrived and Silus was given medical care, but his role in the hunt was over. And worse than that he had been bested by a beast and therefore his score was forfeit. The other members of the group did not leave Silus to die, but he was an outcast for the entire trip home. Upon his return to Alvina Silus was publicly disowned by the Cross family and exiled from their estate. With no where else to go Silus turned to the Black Order in attempt to rebuild his score and regain what he lost at the Shadowlands. It has been Six years since Silus joined the Black Order and in that time he has regained much of his lost Score, and even moved his way to becoming Captain of a squad. But it will take something truly impressive if he is ever to be acknowledged by his family again.

Fighting Style: Silus uses his families Sword style that has been passed down through the ages. In a normal fight it isn't to flashy or impressive, but most of the styles ""signature"" moves come when fighting large opponents such as Dragons.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 37

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Silverfang (Silverfanginite? Silverfangian? Silvin?) 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://comicsbulletin.com/main/sites/default/files/features/images/bogdanove/strongman10.jpg""/></div></div>
Gerhard is quite a muscular man of Silverfang descent, he stands at a sizable 6'4"" and appears as a quite imposing man due to such however, the large man's face always has a kind gesture a heart smile and a warm and welcoming demeanor, a dark brown mustache that is kept rather long is the only bit of hair to be found upon his head. It is easy to tell that the man had never worked an easy day in his life, for his body seems sculpted magnificently.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Gerhard Bergfalk, a man of raw physical might and staunch personality. For as long as he could remember Gerhard has been a laborer, working one menial job to the next essentially picking things up and putting them somewhere else. In time he became quite good at such physical labor. For years Gerhard lived like a dog, barely able to scrap enough money together to survive. A great being, Silverfang, though a beast still lived a life of plenty. This gave the man the very will to pull together, for if something as hated as a great beast by those who do not understand it can eek out a living, then by the powers that be so could Gerhard!

The mighty dragon known as Silverfang took a liking to the somewhat down on his luck man, just as she has done so many times before for her people. For years in the mountain homes Gerhard was taught of many things by the rather omniscient dragon, or perhaps she had manipulated his malleable heart. There he had learned the very basis for the morality that he employs today. Not all humans are good for the fact that they are human, there are people that are fiercer, more deadly, and most of all, even more treacherous than many of the beasts of the Shadowlands. And on the flip side, there do exist beasts that are slaughtered for the sole fact that they are beasts, some are just like Silverfang, not wishing harm among those who wish harm to herself. Gerhard's heart was soft, kind, forgiving, perhaps he had the ability to change the opinions of those around him, and yet he knew that many beasts must be slain if his way of life were to continue. With Silverfang's blessing Gerhard knew that he must place himself within the ranks of the Black Order if he truly wanted to fulfill his dreams, a life where beasts and men are brothers, not enemies.

Gerhard is a man among men, who often lets his demeanor and muscular fortitude do the talking for him, he has the capabilities for fine arts and strives to help everyone around him reach a certain perfection in at least one trait. A softhearted and kind soul he does not hesitate to place himself in danger's way if it means the protection of someone close to him. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style:</span> Gerhard is somewhat skilled in hand to hand combat, although he hasn't had much practice for he is a man of spirit and soul, contrary to his appearance. Heavy strikes and versatile grapples are what line the style of brawling that he employs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> Two heavy iron gauntlets that cover a portion of his knuckles, yet leaving enough open space for him to have mobility with his hands, these are the catalysts for his fighting style. And a supply of normal everyday shirts in abundance. (He tends to tear them often)

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities:</span> Gerhard is often considered a mountain of thought for his outward physical appearance and wisdom that he contains within. Unknown to him the large birthmark that resides at the sole on his right foot is in fact divine in nature. Gerhard never thinks to much about it, other than when he is in contact with earth it makes effect on his life. Although when there is dirt between the large man's toes, he feels at peace, perhaps even one with nature. The large man also boasts great strength.

This mark is completely unactivated and untapped into, it is unlikely that Gerhard ever will posses the knowledge or skill to activate it.

Other Information: Gerhard speaks with a heavy Scandinavian sounding accent!

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>
Count Salezenathor was born as the younger brother of the current Duke Ironclast of Hannover.  Ironclast and Salezenathor were opposite in some ways: Ironclast preferred to fight close and be comfortable with the masses, while Salezenathor preferred to fight from a distance and only open up around smaller groups.  For the reign of their sickly father however, they complemented each other in maintaining the house.  They became better friends as they became worked more closely.

Their father, realizing his death was approaching, wrote in various gifts to each of his children.  This included an Shardbow for Salezenathor and a magical sword for Ironclast.

When illness finally killed their father, the duchy went to Ironclast and some ducal lands went to Salezenathor as a county.  For a while they remained friends, but then Ironclast got married and had a child, and then another one the next year.  Realizing that while his brother remained, his second born would have no lands to inherit.  Sal's brother, wanting to maintain his line as noble, started trying to get rid of Sal.  After a few minor skirmishes within the duchy the Count left, naming Ironclasts second son regent and heir.  

Salezenathor signed up with the Black Order, maintaining his title but losing the lands as a requirement.  Ironclast's murderous intentions remained however as he thought Salezenathor was just being clever.

While accomplishing nothing extremely note-worthy, Sal has started building a reputation as an excellent marksman and a skilled politician.  He has hunted in the evil woods for monsters of small to mid size as practice though, waiting to jump on the big game for when he as accurate with his bow as with his eye.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 40</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style</span>
Sal prefers to maintain a distance, shooting his arrows with great skill.  If he has to he will use a simple knife on them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>
Marksman: Salezenathor can shoot far and accurately, or mid distance and quickly depending on his bow.
Horseman: Salezenathor can ride like a knight, as comfortable on horseback as on foot.
Politician: While not able to speak to crowds, Sal is clever and in a conversation involving less than five people will get the better of the others.
Singer: Every camp needs a bard.
Sneaky: Although not a tracker, Sal can hide in the shadows.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>
Icon.  Rankoric Horses are bred for speed and intellect, moving faster and longer.  Small in stature yet strong, they have one defining characteristic: they choose a person and stick with them.  They will only obey commands from that person, will fight to defend them, and die for them if necessary.  They also live to be as old as the person who rides them, usually dying no later than a year after they do (although sometimes they change to a close friend, making some live for stupidly long lengths of time).  Icon chose Sal when Sal first left for the Order, in a way a sign from God that this was the right choice for him.
Boots of Silence: Make no noise as he walks.
Cloak of Weather Resistance: Anything natural has no effect on the wearer: a strong storm will not hit them, rain will not touch them, and ants will not bother them.  Monsters and magic will still hit the wearer though.
Folding bow: A bow that folds at the middle in a unique manner, allowing Sal to carry it discretely in his cloak if necessary.  Made to shoot quickly and at a mid range.
Shardbow: A bow of massive strength and size, it is theorized that from the Age of Gods this was a weapon that brought down deities.  When drawn, it will never snap no matter the tension, and it seems to shoot exponentially harder the stronger it is pulled, meaning if something tugged the string REALLY hard...
(Note: For a human this will only be maybe twice to three times as strong as normal, so he won't be shooting a railgun)
Jester: A magical flute.  Salezenathor is still trying to figure the damn thing out.

Bio: Recca was born in Talos, Half pure blood and Half native. He was Raised in the church and is a loyal to it. He father is pure blood and his mother was just a servant of the house Ryugal. When she became pregnant with the lords son, they were thrown out because the lords son said that she seduced him. Being only a servant, and he being the lords son, no one would've believed her anyway. When Recca was born, he bared the birthmark of magic on his back right shoulder. He had been chosen, and that's when the church took them in.

When he was old enough his mother told him of who his father was. Even though she had great distaste for his father and house Ryugal, she didn't want him to not know who he was. People often talked about him as the bastard son of house Ryugal, He never let any of the whispers in the dark get to him. he had a loving mother and a place to belong too. With the mark of the gods on his body he started training within the church at a young age. Honing his skills with magic and also swordsmanship. It was not long before he started to incorporate his own fighting technique. He called it Bararaku Inkeradosaika which means Lightning Sword of Extinction.

As he grew older and his magic grew stronger, he finally had risen to the rank of priest in the church. He took his vows of celibacy and was committed to the cause. Soon people around Talos started to call him the Lighting Priest. Serving as a ambassador in the Talos army, he would often join them on their patrols near the border to keep the stay monster at bay. Its not normal for one of the church to go out and fight but even their pope knew that Recca had a higher calling. He knew that Recca was no ordinary child when he first arrived at their church with his mother. He as something more.

Years have passed and Recca is now 28, he had made a name for himself. Training hard and working hard everyday to get out of the shadow of house Ryugal, and he obtained the rank of Monsignor. He service to the church was very committed and preaching the ways of Ristoth. His last meeting with the pope, he told him he would reach out to the Black Order. He felt like everything he did up until now was calling him to the Order. With the popes blessing he reminded him that he represents Talos and the church of Ristoth. And to remember the teachings will always guide him.

Fighting Style: Bararaku Inkeradosaika is a duel wield fighting style the focus on offense but also have some defense capabilities. With the help of magic one imbues its weapons with whatever element he is more proficient with. In Recca case Lighting is is main but he has other suppose spell to help him.

Equipment: Two Long swords fit in to a holster on his back in a cross shape manor. He keeps a bible with him where ever he goes. His clothes is like in the picture but on outside of his shoulder you can see a Cross on both arms (or whatever they use for Ristoth symbol.)

The barmaiden, Asthian take care of Yura, without the knowledge of Yura and her parents. She gained the love of a mother, though with having Yura around her life became harder, Asthian didn't let the sadness or depression come over here. When she was at work she tried not to worry as she asked the neighbors nearby to watch her house, it was a mistake. As she let those 'supposed' friends into her house stuff began dissapearing and thus...making her even poor. Asthian couldn't handle the money of which she needed in the city for her house and so she had to move. Asthian barely had any money for her and Yura, she carried the weight and the weight of her heart out of talos, attempting to find work, but there was none. Asthian's love never went done, she cared and protected for Yura and never gave up, though she was at the end of the chapter. Asthian was infected with a sickness of whichh was highly dangerous, the 'flu'. She didn't have money for the medicine nor did she have the components to heal her from the flu. Asthian cried and cried, hugging her daughter around the campfire, weither it rained or snowed she would still love Yura at a her full extent. Soon after..her book was closed, Asthian couldn't stop the tears as she knew it was her finally night alive, and so she tried to call for help in the nearest town, but soon died. Yura was alone, crying out for Asthian, tears slowly sliding down her face as she ventures every inch of the area they both had camped out, but nothing. Soon after a guard had found her alone, crying with the only remnants of her mother, a sword and a book filled with stories that Asthian took the time to create and read to Yura. The guard had took her to the village, only 21 miles away from Talos. The guard tended to Yura's need, he was a single man with no family memembers in his household. Yura grew, without knowing the mans name as he was to be only called 'Pa' (or any other names that reffered to as Dad. ) The man would buy books from the library and at times take her to training to watch the guards train and clash swords. Pa wasn't the nicest man in the world as he was very stern and serious, yet he had the smile of a child and the voice that was soothing. Pa gave Yura all the advice he could about 'defense' he would casually teach her how to use a sword in different ways and creating diverse fighting styles. Pa knew that the sword Yura always held with her was the only remnant of her mom, as he had saw her drop down and die his heart tightened everytime he saw the sword, keeping a secret that he did not aid her Asthian. The sword become less heavier as she grew older, she became more fit, having the knowledge of a guard, though she had developed her own style of combat, many thought it was a bad idea and a waster of energy, though in reality it protected her more. Yura was a smart and intelliegent girl, her father provided her with multiple essays, questions, and books, they had practiced writing, the father gained the knowledge from a mage, as he too was slightly a mage, though very low as he ranked as an apprentice, the magic of the father didn't rub on her, though his knowledge from the mage did. Yura, had no memory of many people in her life but only the merchants and her Pa. People seemed to be very scarce as many didn't seem to have free time, they were busy or lazy. Most of the citizens in the village were only young adults and elders. (&lt;--extra) Yura was an adult, at the age of 18 she felt ready to go outside and thus she did, she moved to Alvina, soon creating a house. Her life was going into a next chapter, feeling adventurous and eager to explore, she joined..<span class=""bb-b"">The Black Order</span>.</span>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style</span></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Yura uses both her blade and sheath. The blade is simply for impaling multiple targets or target. While they sheath is used to block and stun opponents, by hitting with the sheath. The blade can be used as a stunning mechanic as well, though it would most likely break the decoration on Yura's blade and which she would cry if she lost or broke it. So Yura uses her agile movement and her ability to do acrobatics while in combat. Yura moves around her opponent with wind magic, gaining the ability to slide on the grass to move swiftly away and towards the opponent. Up close she tends to be a strike then move type of girl so she uses fast hand movements to get her way. The sheath casually comes in from time to time, when she is wanting to impale the target quickly she will use her sheath to dodge until she is able to finally strike the opponent.</span>

Not much to it, though the shoes that cover her legs are a light piece of metal, mostly used for kicks to stun the opponent if needed, under the metal piece is two layers of cloth of which protects the user from scratches by the metal-piece. The weapon on the back is a sharp sword, its hilt is made out of wood and in the inside of it is metal. The blade itself is only 4ft tall, it is triangular at the tip and the rest is a long rectangle until it gets to the hilt. The hilt itself is thin and round, but not the sheath. The sheath is also wood,having a sticky substance go along the end of the sheath (the flat part) so that it does not need latches or a thing to remove the sheath. The sticky substance is also easy to remove and is also resistant to the natural weather.</span></div></div>

Made by her mother, made by the protection of herself and Yura when she was a baby. It wasn't often she would use a blade, but instead a bow.

She bought this bow from a merchant named, Sayoi thus gaining the name 'Sayoi's Bow'. She orginally bought this bow to remind her of Asthian, though she soon realized that she wanted to do archery, though mostly she would practice her blade-work but at times, when she felt like it she would practice archery.</div></div>

Yura also has a sense of direction, having the ties of nature in her hands she can easily navigate through the forest without a problem.

She even developed her own fighting style from a book she had read, thus she practiced running and stretching. Yura gained a house, a self made house as she was able to gain help from Talos's acrchitects and gain a house from the money her mother left her and as well getting furniture. Her house had a unique 'touch' to it as there were a bathroom that was sanded constant times by Yura. It was made to be clean and clean only and would be immidentantly if there was mold or some kind of germ upon it. She used the techinque most brewers used to clean the water, burning it. The fire itself would be surrounded by stones to keep the ash away from the floor. A wooden tub would be set in the room, filling it with the burned water and thus she would gain cleaned water. She also made custom soaps, using fresh herbs from around her home, though that would take up an absurdly large amount of my bio.)]</span>

-BACKGROUND AND BIO-


""Abandoned"" by their parents at an unknown age in the roughest parts of Alvina, Caleb and Llynn were lost children from the start. As a result, Caleb brought it upon himself to learn how to take good care of his younger brother, Llynn. Shouldering the responsibilities of both a brother and a father, he carried the burden of holding his brother's hand along their entire journey, even when he himself had no clue where they were to go. The pair traveled aplenty- to here, there and far, far away; their home was never in one place. Their feet scabbed, heads ached and hearts faltered. They grew up as vagabonds, stretching themselves to the limit as they struggled to make ends meet in the pitiful, measly villages they ended up in. 

They continued to live like this until Caleb reached 5 summers, and Llynn: 2. At this point they were barely even alive, lying on the streets of an unknown town on disease-ridden sheets, as villagers paid them no heed. Time and time again had they been put in a situation where one of them almost gave out, both physically and mentally. Due to living life as far as they did with the lack of basic human resources, one could tell that their end was near- and with things the way they were, the brothers would have been extremely thankful for it.

...up until one fateful meeting with a mysterious, aged man who looked shadier than anything, offered a helping hand. Whether they were in for anything, they had no idea; and they soon found out. 

The brothers were brought by the man and his men to a ghost town, located in the furthest south region of Alvina- Caleb guessed. Llynn casually clung to Caleb in an attempt to shake off the feeling that something terribly wrong was about to take place that day... and that it did. On that very day, they signed a contract with the man who took them in as their ""children"", or rather, assassins. Llynn, at a young age had the intuition of the ancients. Being less impulsive than his brother, he hesitated as he watched Caleb sign both their contracts in his blood. The deal was made, and thus their shackles were locked.

The duo spent the rest of their days filing out and hunting down people that ranged from citizens to official authorities. Trained to be the best, the pair simply would walk through a crowd, clad in cloaks- and that would already mean one less soul around the block. They were trained by their 'Master' in the most gruesome ways possible, in order to rise within the ranks of their organization, ""The Gray Hand"". Caleb and his brother were top-notch in hand-to-hand combat, with scars and bruises that will never fade to prove that. However, when they hunted out in pairs, especially during stealth missions, Caleb honored his nation's soldiers by using their weapon of choice and got better at it: the saber. Quick, easy and painless. Years passed ever since their first assassination, and at this point Caleb had grown jaded to his unlawful killings. He had never known the people personally, so in turn he never found out whether his targets, or victims, were innocent or not. This thought nagged at him, ate away at him for years on end. Llynn had made it even worse for him, by pressuring him to stop what they're doing every now and then- just pack up and leave. The thought resided in his mind too, Caleb realized. But how could they ever leave? The elder brother prioritized his beloved sibling's life the most, even if that meant he'd have to become a cold, heartless killer in order to keep Llynn well and standing.

Caleb's heart hardened when his Master assigned them the duo's final ""task"" to prove their loyalty and dedication, to stand with the guild through thick and thin. One look at Llynn had Caleb sure that he was thinking the exact same thing. They were told to ""get rid"" of a family of 5. The parents, three children- two boys and one girl. Caleb shuddered as he looked at his Master in disgust, but only for a moment to not get caught. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""...we can't do this.""</span> Llynn sounded defeated.

<span class=""bb-b"">""I know. My heart aches for them, but we have to. You know that.""</span> Caleb thought a bit longer. <span class=""bb-b"">""...or we could escape.""</span>

The plan took several days until the time they had to head out to seek the family and secure their demise. They would run across the forests in separate directions, to confuse the armed soldiers- but their well-thought out plan had gone terribly, terribly wrong. Caleb had managed to make it out alive, however, the fate of his dear brother now lay in the hands of The Gray Hand.


---




Up until now, Caleb Brèvedent is a fierce, hot-headed young man who values his pride and Llynn more than anything. He prefers to think of the situation first, prioritizing logic over morals at times. A year after he turned 23 and escaped the haunting grips of The Gray Hand, he made a name for himself at a local Alvinian bakery, to keep his past under wraps. However, his plan was in vain as his original identity was scouted out and in the end, recruited to serve The Black Order to ""repent"". He gladly accepted and trained with all his might; to hunt predators- both beasts and those from his organization alike and to seek out his brother. Caleb wanted to wash the dirt off his hands, to rid himself off his past misdeeds and redeem himself for serial murder. The blood would never wash off, he knew- but he <span class=""bb-i"">also</span> knew now, that at least he would be doing the community some good and freeing them of their worries.

All was well until he was graced by a familiar presence in the halls of The Black Order.

Light and agile on his feet, Caleb waltzes around the battlegrounds with a bounce in his step and allows the flow of his swords to do his work for him, quick and effortless. Before finishing off his targets, Caleb likes to play around with his opponents. There's nothing more satisfying than to have your targets panic and beg for their lives.</div></div>

From conditioning his feet during his early years to managing his stamina and flexibility, Caleb was trained for the acrobatics and endurance. He is able to run for hours without getting tired, and is gifted at slinking in and out of a given area at will, making him a great scout- and well, assassin.

Caleb possesses a faint birthmark on his right wrist, which channels his powers that had ""accidentally"" manifested during one of his early scouting missions when he blinded his target, leaving him dazed and his eyes bleeding. The light magic is used very rarely whenever Caleb panics, unaware of its full potential.

Standing at about 5’8ft, he is a bit on the tall side.
Always found wearing a glare, his azure blue eyes always pierced people deeply. Hair always in disorder, he never really cared much for his looks, and thus has always kept it unkempt. Has a Darkness symbol under his left wrist.

Bio:
Not remembering much of his childhood, only that he’s been with his brother for as long as he can remember. Growing up as orphans in Alvina, and barely being able to live day after day by barely scraping up enough money for a meager piece of bread that was shared between the brothers. This would eventually fall short one day, and almost close to death due to hunger, a mysterious, old and haggard man came and offered them housing and food, under the pretense that they join his organization, “The Gray Hand.” Being unable to refuse, they accepted and were taken under his wing.

The man taught and trained both the brothers in the way of assassination, seeing them as pawns that would be useful to the organization in the future. Growing up in a ragged and tough life, Llynn has become Sharp-Tongued, Cold and a tad bit Irritable but still having some compassion. 

Finally coming of age to take on his first assassination mission with his brother.

Easily overpowering the man he was assigned to kill, even without the help of his brother, all he had to do was finish the job, but he had mixed thoughts, while he did not care for the man, he didn’t want to outright murder him without good reason. 
“Hey, what are you doing, kill him.” said Caleb, under the shadow of a tree.
“Bu- But he could be innocent for all we know.” Llynn replies.
“No, he's not. You can't be sure, not now, not ever- if you want to live, that is. Follow the Master's orders, we can't bite the hand that feeds us, Llynn.” retorted Caleb with a look of indifference on his face. 

With eyes of regret, he finally musters up the resolve to finish off the man, he kept telling himself that the reason he was killing this person was because he <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> too, for all he knows this person was probably a low-life who was asked to be assassinated.
Repeating these reasons in his head, no matter how foolish they were, he finally managed to deliver the final blow. Offering a small prayer, Llynn left his body to rot. Being patted on the back by his brother after finishing off the man.

After each and every mission he had, he grew ever colder. Always telling himself that they deserved to be killed and it wasn’t ‘his’ fault. This put a great mental burden on Llynn. Whenever he came back, his brother would always shoot that same smirk on his face and say “Good work.”

In time, the brothers both reached their limits by being tasked to murder an innocent family to ‘test’ their loyalty to the organization, this mission would happen in a few weeks, the brothers were awestruck. They nodded meekly, but they both knew that they would not be able to do that, both of them planned their escape.

When the brothers set off their escape plan, it was going rather smoothly until at the last moment, they were spotted by one of the tower guards. Racing the alarm, they panicked to get to the last exit, almost making it out, Llynn gets caught by one of the traps set down for intruders. Getting instantly knocked out, the next thing he knew is that he was strapped on to a table, getting tortured for ‘betraying’ the organization.

After a long and gruesome torture, perhaps because of all the pain, he finally fell unconscious with one last with a blunt plank. 

Llynn waking up with Retrograde amnesia, he forgot almost everything he knew only that he was part of the order and, the order taking advantage of this, continue to send him out for missions. Unable to remember his purpose, he continued to execute his missions, but eventually his memories started to come back after each mission, with his hate for the order growing ever stronger. Honing his skill before trying to escape, he also found out that he had been able to use lightning that was siphoned from the symbol that was under his left wrist. Training every single day, with contempt and malice towards the order, he had manage to get, through rigorous training, ‘Apprentice’ level with Darkness and improved his combat experience. He finally made his escape, killing a sizable number of the order before his way out.

Now he seeks Redemption for his wrongdoings and also seeks out members of “The Gray Hand”, he sought out the ‘Black Order’, in an attempt to try and undo his wrongdoings. It is said that this order was formed during the ‘Age of the Beasts’ whose main purpose was to free men from the servitude of beasts. Finally finding this rather, elusive order, he finally managed to join them,

Walking in the halls of the black order he was rather amazed at the grandeur size of the building.
Then seeing a man leaning back on a pillar, he clutches his head in pain and recollects the smirk he saw on his face.

<span class=""bb-i"">“Brother~”</span>  called the voice under the shadow of the pillar.

Llynn fights with a sabre in the right hand and a small dagger on the left. He prefers speed over power as he believes that if you can’t be hit, you ultimately win.

Staying longer in the order, he has been taught of more deadly ways to end his target's life. Choosing Speed over Strength, he always thought that if the opponent cannot manage to land a single hit, you, theoretically, win. Despite this he still has a respectable amount of strength.

A faint symbol on his left wrist that he's never really noticed until in one particular mission, he was cornered in a room after a failed assassination attempt, right before the final blow was struck, out of desperation, managed to harness the power of his 'mark', he could feel power seeping out of him and before he knew it the whole room was plunged in darkness, opening his eyes he, for some unbeknownst reason, could 'feel' where his enemies were. Not being aware why this was happening, this gave him an edge, and he, one by one, started to kill his assailants. After this mission, he always tried to harness his new powers, but much to his annoyance, he only ever managed to use 1/10th of the power he used back then on will.

Fort Gansforth has stood as Sedan's first line of defense against the creatures of Takari since the fall of the Beasts. But the once legendary Fort now lies in ruins, its gates splintered and shattered. The Brave Suldan knights who defended its walls now lay slaughtered their bodies scattered across the courtyard. A horde of Orcs now stand before the keep cheering at their victory. A red skinned Orc stands on the overhanging balcony holding the Knight Commander over the edge. ""Today we have shown the filthy Humans exactly why they used to fear our kind! Why they should fear us!"" The Orc yelled to his troops who gave a cheer at the words. ""We now have a land to call our own and this is just the beginning! Soon the Bloodfang Clan will claim our rightful land and subjugate these pitiful Humans!"" He continued just before tossing the Commander off the balcony leaving the broken corpse to rot with his men. The orcs below cheered in victory, a dreadful cheer that spread out for miles around the keep.</div>"

In that time the Orcs have stayed quiet not moving further into Suldan territory, but the threat is ever persistent and has shaken the people of Suldan. In response to the attack Suldan has officially requested the aid of The Black Order in dealing with the Orc clan. Now the Order prepares an army to march and retake Fort Gansforth, but these preparations take time and instead of letting the Orcs have free reign the Order has sent a Battalion of troops to scout and hold the Orc's advance until the Army arrives. Silus and his newly appointed team are to be apart of this battalion a suitable task for their first real mission as a team.

After a long day of scouting the sun starts to set as the dwindling light pears through the forest. Although the route was quiet for most of the day, Silus was able to catch the trail of an Orc Hunting party not even an hour ago. He now leads his men following the trail wanting to see his foe, and if the odds are in his favor strike and give his team a successful first mission. He slows down as the party approaches a small clearing. ""Looks like they are up ahead. everyone on your toes and be quiet, don't want to alert them to our presence, The tracks tell me there are five orcs and a warg. We should be able to take them so be ready to attack."" He whispered to his team before inching closer to the clearing.</div>"

Recca stood outside the church in Talos and everyone had came out to see him off. His mother was extremely proud of him, joining up with the Black Order was a prestigious thing. Although many of the people didn't want to see him leave. Recca had been one of the better priest at the church and the best thing that happen to them there since he and his mothers arrived. The emotional good buy was starting to get to him as he stared at his mother.

""Mom,"" he said to her as she looked deep in to her eyes. Holding back the tears he embraced her. She released him and looked at him, ""Remember the teachings, and don't worry about me. The church will take care of me, just like they always have,"" she said with a smile on her face. He reached down and grabbed his bag. Inside was his bible, 'The Holy word of Ristoth' also inside was his holy symbol, bedroll change of priest clothes, water skins and enough food to get him to Alvina. He would travel north towards the sea to a port city by the name of Valcia. From there he would take a ferry to his destination. He waved one last good buy to everyone before boarding the carriage that was waiting for him. With one last look, she smiled say back and enjoyed his ride.

It took a little over 5 hours to get to Valcia, with having to stop to rest and feed the horses. It was mid afternoon by time he arrived and he headed straight to the docks. It took a little over an hour to find a ship headed to Alvina near Dragon's maw. It would take a day or so to reach it so he decided he would offer blessing on the deck of the ship to anyone who needed a little pick me upper. Many of the ships crew went to see him on their time off to speak with him and hear the word. It was even more special coming from him cause he had the mark of the gods, and he is a Monsignor of Ristoth. Even though he did these blessing for free people still felt the need to give him something.

<span class=""bb-b"">*AFTER ARRIVING IN ALVINA**</span>

After arriving in Alvina. Departing the ship he could see Dragon's maw in the distance. Seemed to be about a few hours walk, he smiled cause he loved to see new things and places. ""Excuse me handsome,"" He heard a call of a woman voice from behind him. He turned to see a beautiful woman's approaching him. ""We don't get many priest around here, especially one from Talos. You looking for fun?"" Recca smiled at her, ""I really have to get to Dragon's Maw...""

""Oh come on, it won't take long, maybe."" She placed her hand on his shoulder and leaned in. With a smile on her face and a wink and brush of her hair, he smiled back. ""Okay sure, Lets go have fun. But only for a little while."" Recca laid there in a pool of his own sweat. The breeze blowing across his skin and he was huffing and puffing. ""Wow, That was fun."" He said with a smile on his face. ""Never have I experienced such joy, and fun with out laughing. And this Feeling feels great. What do you call his act?"" The woman looked at him, I call it Yoga, it help builds your core and give you a wide range of motion. Your a natural, I am glad you like it, you're my first student. I am hoping it will catch on soon. Thank you for your time.""

Recca smiled putting back on his shirt and grabbing his bag he was off to Dragon's Maw. When he arrived he asked for direction to the Black Order headquarters. Once he found the place he was amazed at how many people were out and about doing things. It reminded him the military back in Talos. Everyone seemed to have a job, so he found the person that can best point him in the direction of the captain. But that didn't happen. Someone recognized his clothes and knew he was one of the new recruits. ""Hey Priest boy!"" Someone called out to him, He looked around a spotted someone waving him over. ""Hey, whats your name?""

""I am the Monsignor of Ristoth, Recca Heartseeker."" The man pulled out a piece of parchment and looked for his name. ""Ah yes, your finally here. Your company has already left. Only take what you can carry over there, leave the rest here someone will take it to your room. someone will take you to company they should be a few hours ahead of you. We got word a couple of weeks ago that Fort Gansforth, in Sedan Territory near the Takari Border has fallen. It was under siege but they didn't last to long. So now we are sending a scouting party ahead while we finish mobilizing here and get ready to launch a counter attack to reclaim it.""

Recca kinda understood what was going on, he was going into battle just shortly after arriving. Not a big deal this was what he signed up for. He met with his team had slight introductions and what not. But it was time to get down to business.

<span class=""bb-b"">*PRESENT*</span>

Silus was the leader of the small company of scouts. Recca drew his weapon and prepared for a signal to attack. Five orcs and a warg should not be much of a problem he thought to himself. He Followed behind Silus as he inches closer, Recca was ready but he wonder if everyone else were, but he quickly pushed them thought aside. He needed to be alert, and focused.</div>"
3629,The Black Order of Alestoth,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75984-the-black-order-of-alestoth,['Casual'],2015-02-04 14:22:00,Roleplayer001,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Ranger rode behind the infantrymen on Icon for a bit longer, the hooves touching the ground soundlessly.  Salezenathor pulled the Shardbow from the saddle, arrow on the string in preparation.  While Silius' tracking skills were superior to the Counts, Sal wasn't a complete novice in that area either.  While he wouldn't have gotten quite as accurate of a count on the enemies, he would have been able to say that there were beneath ten orcs and that the tracks were new, probably missing the lighter warg in the mist of the orc's heavier steps.

The Ranger dropped from the horse quietly, moving to the side of the group by about a hundred feet, then moving ahead.  He knew what Silius would expect of him, as they had worked together in the past for a few minor missions.  He was useful to the to-be-dragonslayer because the Ranger could move with uncanny levels of stealth.  He reached the edge of the clearing just before the rest of his party did, eyeing the area over to make sure nothing was out of place.

A small camp was set up, appearing to be a meeting place for three of these parties.  None of the others were outside their tents at least, leaving only the five orcs and the warg that Silius expected.  Sal would shoot the warg the moment the combat started, allowing his allies to fight a battle against the more conventional enemies they were used to facing.</div>"

Unlike the others Gerhard was more of a simple folk, the little fjords, the wild creatures, and the earth beneath his feet had kept him at ease during their travels. Although, darkness loomed on the horizon, the large man could feel that a time of great action would be upon them.

Silus, the leader of their company, was a man of honor, of impressive skill. And while their ideals had not aligned, Gerhard respected him for his position. The others, he hadn't too much time to get to know any of them. 

The count, Salezenathor, a name that the bulky the man could not pronounce all too well, he appeared to be a man of staunch personable skills. As the oldest of their party, Gerhard had a certain respect for the count as well.

Recca, the young priest had given them all a blessing before their journeys onset. While this was a very noble and kind action, Gerhard had never truly been a man of piousness. Nor one to respect the authority of those who see themselves as holier than thou. Fortunately Recca hadn't seemed arrogant as far as he could see. And so no ill will was boded between the two.

Ty'ura, the youngest and only female of the group. She was short, yet had certain strength of will about her. She was young, yet not foolish in her ways. Gerhard had not known many women as more than care takers, thus Ty'ura had appeared to him as quite different. Although he has yet enough interaction with the young warrior has been had for him to truly gauge her.

The brothers, Caleb and Llynn Brèvedent. The pair had a certain admirable strength of character. However the detachment they had exhumed led Gerhard to believe they had faced innumerable hardships, yet they had prevailed. He was unable to discern much from the two as they had often appeared secretive. Perhaps they were hiding something dark? Gerhard could not know.

These thoughts had coursed through the heavy man's mind, distracting him from what would lie ahead of the party. Although he soon was shocked back into reality as he bumped into the count ahead of him. They had stopped, their weapons drawn. Silus spoke as if they were nearing their targets. This unnerved Gerhard, the prospect of such violence had seemed frightening to a degree. However there are things that a man must do, he adjusted his dark green suspenders connecting his pants of the same colour to the simple white shirt upon his torso, before doing the same to the thick metal gauntlets resting on his meaty hands.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">She'd been getting ready for days, practicing her blade work with dummies she'd created after joining the order. Joining the order was a new step in her life, though she  didn't know if she was ready for such intense action. But deep down she felt 'happy' in a way, fulfilling her own dream to regain that energetic and action-filled life. She sighs, turning at an awkward angle to see the hilt of her moms sword, seeing the etchings of her mother made her smile.

She felt more in peace, though she felt tense, feeling her muscles tightening as she rides the horse as the group neared the enemy. She was so scared that she couldn't feel things around her, her brain seemed to be focused on her mind and her mind only, canceling out her sense's as she thinks, thoroughly. The feeling of being impaled by a sword or dying by an orcs hand scared her, almost feeling regret for joining The Black Order. Her emotions mix as she rides the horse, hearing the sound of her voice, expressing her feelings through hand movements and face making, many of the members looked towards her, perplexed or simply thinking 'crazy #$@^*'. The air around her tightens, feeling no movement as she scans her vicinity, many of the members shuffle their way off the horse as she does the same thing, feeling pain from the muscles tightening too much in her body, she inhale and exhales attempting to calm down and possibly not pass out by flexing her muscles too hard. 

'Difference' was the only adjective she could think of. Seemingly the only woman in the whole group, feeling more diverse and separate as most wore armors and leather clothing while she, she wore a mage looking attire to the battle, she readied many excuses of to why she was wearing such awfully un-protective attire to the battle. But she felt most comfortable and relaxed in her attire and didn't dare to change into something heavier as it would of made her more pressured, though now appearances or opinions didn't matter now. The group neared the enemy as we all came to a stop, the group leader turned and gave us all a stern warning.

The leaders voice feels muffled, as her special, so called 'ability' would allow her senses to increase or so she thought. She watches and observe as many unsheathe their swords, long metal blades reveal from their fancy sheaths with multiple etchings, many of them lower their posture, their bodies attempting to stay tense as they walk towards the enemy lines. She did the same thing, her legs criss-cross as she walks, silence filled the air, sunlight began dancing through the trees, sounds of nature began flooding in, her pupils return to their moderate size as she could almost here the beautiful voices of the forest. Embracing the wind that danced through the group, her clothes and hair moving along with the wind as she felt tranquil.

Yura was ready, she'd been training for decades and she wouldn't let her talents go to waste, she was ready to slay the the guards of who block our path to a tranquil nature, the <font color=""lime"">orcs</font>.</span></div>"

Shadows danced under the light of the chandeliers as Caleb's looming figure tiptoed carefully through the Grand Hall of The Black Order. Crickets could be heard faintly chirping even through the massive, echoing walls- signaling that he was in fact, alone, much to his delight. When the moon was at its highest and the wind had mostly died down, Caleb had appreciated these moments the most. It was during the wee hours of the night when he would silently creep through that damn labyrinth of a building until he'd reached the first floor, simply to cast his gaze upon the moon that welcomed him ever so subtly. Whenever he did, he could finally lose himself in the midst of all the chaos that went on inside his head and out there, in the world. Escapism. 

A long sigh of relief left his lips as he slid down the pillar, sitting at just the right angle to have the moonlight shine upon on his face and smiled to himself. 

As if on queue to disrupt his mental repose, his ears twitched as he heard the main gates unlock rather clamorously. Alarm immediately flashed across Caleb's face as he jolted into an attack stance, unsheathing one of his sabers that he brought down with him just in case- no soldier is ever safe, after all. This time he knew it was probably the right thing to do. Shrouded in darkness, he stood there and watched as the tall front doors opened ever so slowly, until it dawned on him. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Our foes would never simply stroll through that door... well, not the clever ones anyway.""</span></span>

Quickly sliding his saber back into its home, he leaned against the pillar just to be partially lit by the chandelier's flickering flames. If this was a visitor, he wouldn't want to frighten him with the sight of a blade. Eventually the doors swung open on both hinges as a young man was ushered inside by the guards- seemingly having been invited in. Familiarity flashed in Caleb's eyes as he shifted his body closer to the direction of the boy, almost standing directly in his way in order to scan him. Everything was burned into his memory, he could not be mistaken. It was only until Caleb had caught a glimpse of the prized azure cloak that hung on the unknown man's right arm, was he completely sure of himself. 

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Llynn-</span></span>

A look of pain and disdain contorted his facial features as Caleb realized, that despite his being ecstatic about finally being able to meet his brother after so, so very long, he probably wouldn't have felt the same. Not after what happened, and after some time he proved himself right.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Brother~""</span></span> Caleb called out. The stiff figure glanced around at him in one swift movement, an air of hostility surrounding the boy. Caleb was taken aback, tightly shutting his eyes to avoid the hateful stare from his kin. He deserved everything that was about to come... if only Llynn had stayed a little longer. Caleb's eyes fluttered as they opened slowly, expecting a nasty blow to the face but instead was greeted with an empty space.  Just as rapidly as he had turned around, Llynn was gone without a moment's notice. No words exchanged, no oxygen shared between them-- he was simply <span class=""bb-i"">gone.</span>
<div class=""bb-h2""><font color=""lightblue"">PRESENT</font></div>
Caleb scanned the area surrounding the party for any coming dangers. Exhausted from the scouting earlier, he relished this moment while they followed Silus towards their battleground. So far, so good. Nothing seemed too far out of the ordinary. When he heard that he was finally being called out to his first mission alongside the other members- including his brother, he was rather happy. A sense of unity was in the air, laced with anxiety. In fact, he could practically smell the worry coming from the girl behind him. <span class=""bb-i"">Yura, was it?</span>

The scent of grass and forestry hung in the air as the mini convoy jumped off their horses, with the burliest of the group bumping into Silus'. Chuckling, Caleb was quite satisfied with his teammates, and if adding all of them up didn't equal balance then he didn't know what will. They walked towards their destination silently, with everyone throwing glances at each other, with Caleb's mostly directed to Llynn. However, Llynn would only throw daggers back, so Caleb held back some more. The faint smell of blood and still water hung in the air the closer they got to the clearing they were assigned. Yura had been shaking quite a considerable amount the entire journey, and it passed as a thought to Caleb to try and calm her down by assuring her that a couple of savage orcs could do little to nothing with the group she was with, but he pushed it aside thinking it sounded too boastful. Proud he was, but now was not the time.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Looks like they are up ahead. everyone on your toes and be quiet, don't want to alert them to our presence, The tracks tell me there are five orcs and a warg. We should be able to take them so be ready to attack.""</span></span>

The party had their weapons unsheathed and their bows drawn. Ready as they were, Caleb's signature smirk crawled onto his face. He quickly took to the branch above them, swung and perched himself on the sturdy ledge as he slid out his own pair of silent, deadly beauties into his gloved hands. It was only a matter of time. The orcs were in for a huge surprise, and the fun was <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> about to begin.</div>"

~

After weeks of trying to find “The Black Order”, he had finally managed to track down a member of that said order and asked him the whereabouts of this rather elusive organization. Though reluctantly, the robed man gave him the location of his headquarters. Managing to utter ‘thanks’, he finally set out on his journey towards “The Black Order”.

Following few days of travelling, Llynn had eventually managed to see the grandeur structure from afar, the building being coated mostly in black, he had wondered where they got their name from. Approaching the said structure, he was stopped at the gate by the guards.

<span class=""bb-i"">“What business do you have here?”</span> The guard said, lifting a lantern in order to try and discern the hooded man’s face. 
<span class=""bb-i"">“I wish to join ‘The Black Order’, I was directed here by one of your associates.”</span> I replied, pulling my hood down and connecting my eyes with theirs.
<span class=""bb-i"">“W-Well, it’s really late, but we can have you wait in one of the rooms until tomorrow, are you fine with that?”</span> The guard responded with a tad bit of dread in his eyes, after Llynn nods, the guard glances at his fellow guard, the other guard nodded and the gates were brought to open.

The loud clang of the gate made Llynn jump, he didn’t think it would’ve been that loud, he thought about all the displeased neighbours who, more than likely, woke up from that clang. Being ushered in by the guards, he made his way into the establishment, his own footsteps echoing throughout the building. The hanging chandeliers barely managing to light up the entire room. The moon shining in through the windows made walking through the structure feel bizarre and surreal.

Left by the guards after halfway through, he was given the directions by one of the rather, timid guards. Walking through, appreciating the grand beauty of it all. All of a sudden there was a man in front of him, blocking his entrance to the main lobby, he had not noticed his presence until now. Had he not remembered that he was not on a mission anymore, he would’ve struck him down then and there. Releasing his grip on his dagger, the face was then illuminated by the moonlight, immediately, he remembered who this mysterious figure was. Immense amounts of hatred and disgust welled up inside Llynn. 

<span class=""bb-i"">“Brother~”</span> the figure said.

Clenching his fist, he had almost punched this disgusting figure. This figure who was his brother. The one person he depended on, whom abandoned him and left him to rot in “The Grey Hand.” Thinking it wasn’t worth it, with a clenched fist, he turned around and trudged to his designated room as fast as he could. 

<font color=""lightgreen""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Present</span></span></span></div></font>
~

<span class=""bb-i"">“Hah~ Does the Black Order wish for us to die?”</span> Llynn thought to himself with a slight frown.

He was assigned to a ragtag team to ‘scout’ the recently taken Fort, Fort Gansforth. To ‘hold’ their advance. His whole team was an odd bunch, not knowing their skills since this is one of his first few missions with them, he thoroughly believed that the Order wished him dead.

Following the leader, Silus’ advance to a place where he thought there was a camp,  looking around, it seems like most of the members were unnerved by this, with the exception of the Count, Silus and his brother. He also noticed that the members were all glancing at each other. He always sent back a glare, save for when Yura would glance at him-- he would look away, slightly red.

Caleb, jumping up a tree, with his natural smirk, Llynn could only sigh and think of his own kin as a frivolous monkey, bloodlust oozing out of this said monkey. The tension of the group had started to rise when Silus whispered, 

<span class=""bb-i"">“We should be able to take them so be ready to attack.”</span>

This brought Llynn out of his thoughts and, like the others, started to grip his sabre and dagger ever stronger. The tension of the group suddenly dropped when the hulking man, Gerhard, bumped into the count. Llynn exhaling, thought to himself.

<span class=""bb-i"">“We’re gonna die.”</span></div>"

The groups vibe was a bit mixed he could tell some were confident and others were tense. Silus himself was calm, orcs were no major threat in small groups, Although they were strong most were just brutes and quick thinking could outsmart them and lead to victory. With everything taken into consideration Silus turned his attention to the Orc's camp. Five orcs were in sight as well as the Warg, by the looks of it it was the group Silus had been tracking. He watched them for a moment as the group sat around the fire eating and talking. It was odd how similar Orcs were to humans, although a bit more barbaric they did follow many of the same basic traits as humans. No now was not the time for idealistic thoughts, the known enemy numbers were smaller than their own and Silus' team would have the advantage. But how many orcs were inside the tents? after thinking things over Silus decided that the time to act was now.

Just as Silus was about to motion for the attack rustling was heard from the other side of the clearing. Silus froze waiting to see how the Orcs would react and what was hiding in the brush. The orcs around the fire looked up and reached for their weapons, but three more Ocs came from the brush one dragging a human behind them. ""Found more of dem Humies poking round our turf."" The orc dragging the man said as he tossed the half dead man down near the fire. The warg sat up ready to finish the man off, but was quickly sat back down by its handler. ""Ya Boss says they have some forces ere, has had some of da boys trying to find out where they are hiding so we can show them who owns this land now."" One of the orcs around the fire said. As Silus watched he seemed to notice that that particular orc was a bit bigger than the others and was probably the groups leader. ""Na, the Boss found them, we got word that once Yarg and his boys get back we are to go meet up. Boss wants to hit em tonight while they sleep."" Another orc said joining into the conversation. But that was enough for Silus, Numbers were no longer in their favor and he now had information on an upcoming orc attack. There was no need to endanger his team and risk the Order not receiving the information. He then gave the motion to gather back up and retreat. 

It wasn't even five seconds after Silus gave the order that he heard a branch snap behind the group. Silus quickly turned hearing another voice behind them. ""Ay, looks like some Humies lost their horses. We will have some good eats tonight."" An orc said, ""You idiot, this close to camp? The Humies are planning to attack"" Another orc said as he reached down and grabbed a horn at his side. Silus knew things were about to get bad and rushed back to the horses ready to face the Orcs. ""Stick together finish this group quickly then prepare for the rest."" Silus said reading his weapon for the battle to come. Silus got to the horses just in time to see the three Orcs, two were already prepared one holding a <a href=""http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120513040232/elderscrolls/images/b/bc/M_SteelBattleAxe.png"">Battle Axe</a> and the other an orc sized <a href=""http://jodysamson.com/images/swords/2-1-06/jody-cutlass.jpg"">cutlass</a>.

Everything seemed to be going well, and if it weren't for Caleb's tardiness and failure to spot the orcs creeping up behind them beforehand, they wouldn't have been in that mess. <span class=""bb-i"">""No matter.""</span> Caleb wiped away the sweat from his palms and tightened his grip around the swords. The pale orcs held their weapons threateningly high, looking the humans dead straight in the eyes as they approached the party with snorts and giggles. They began to circle the group like ravenous vultures, eyeing them like carcasses ripe for the picking. 

 Little did they know, The Black Order was definitely not known for losing their spirit so early on in fights.

The two ambushers stood in front of a burlier-looking creature, possibly as body blocks. When he saw Silus charging at the orcs, that was all the initiative the boy needed. Sighing, he took one last glance at Llynn before he jumped into the inevitable. Caleb swiftly launched himself off the branch and landed right in front of the orc that wielded a cutlass. Squinting, Caleb gave the orc a quick once-over and sidestepped just in time to avoid a clean decapitation from the brute. Breathing a quick sigh of relief, that momentary peace had only lasted for so long until a different orc tugged at his cloak from behind and pulled him to the ground.

The brute slammed a leg onto the young man's plated chest hard enough to put a slight dent in it. Caleb gasped for air as tears welled up in his eyes. Slowly beginning to lose consciousness, he reached out to feel for his swords and succeeded. One thing lead to another, as Caleb could barely comprehend at this point. Coughing and spluttering, he thrust the twin swords up the orc's groin all the way into his stomach region and slid them back out. The exhausted brunette merely laid there as the blood dripped onto his face from the gashing orc's body. 

Caleb regained his composure just a few seconds before the orc's companion smashed his head into oblivion, thanking gods that he never believed in. His eyes were still rather hazy but he managed to make out the squealing figure that wriggled on the ground in a pool of blood. At that moment, Caleb's panicked train of thoughts were pleasantly interrupted by wondering when the damn creature was going to finally bleed out-- he was a rather big thing, after all.

The adrenaline-rushed boy ran towards the orc with the battle-axe, who was momentarily distracted by his unfortunate comrade. Caleb dodged the obvious downward swing of the creature's weapon, choosing just the right time to slice away at the brute's joints as its momentum was too much for it to bear. One or two slices of his blades were enough to weaken the orc around his arms--  though it was rather hard considering orc skin was similar to that of rough, hardened plastic and rubber. Looking back at his work, Caleb smirked and wiped away the grime that the previous orc stained his face with. Satisfied, he walked back towards the tree he was perched on, but not before he let loose one more strike at the orc's forehead so as to blind his vision with the downpour of blood. 

 <span class=""bb-i"">""You're rather unlucky. I could've handed you both a faster death.""</span> The young man smiled at them both-- one on the ground yelling and gripping his crotch; and one running around in circles, frantically rubbing the blood away around his eyes and temples. He could see Silus swinging away at an orc with all his might further out in the fields, only running back once he was finished dealing with his opponent.

Caleb casually walked back to his post so they could all time their attacks right this time.</div>"

Recca thought he should say something about Sal moving off quietly, but he had arrived late so maybe it was part of the scouting technique. But what he was aware of was that some of the members here kinda on edge. He always got tensed when he was about to fight, but that was his way of compensating for death. Even thought he was not afraid of dying cause he knew he had lived righteously, and that Ristoth would surely open the gates and welcome him into the land of the gods. Still leaving the mortal realm was something he was not quite ready for. He smiled at the orcs. Surely this would be a good fight.

One of the brother he had met recetly jumped into a tree to get a better vantage point he assumed. The only female in the group was looking rather unease. The big guy, 'hmmm' He thought to himself... seems like a good nick name for Gerhard. He would ask him later to work out with him if they survived his mission. He would show him the ways of Yoga, thus spreading the teaching of Yogaism. Suddenly one of the Orc returned from behind with the sound of a branch breaking:

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Ay, looks like some Humies lost their horses. We will have some good eats tonight.""

 ""You idiot, this close to camp? The Humies are planning to attack"" Another orc said as he reached down and grabbed a horn at his side. 

 ""Stick together finish this group quickly then prepare for the rest.""</span></span>

Without a signal to attack, well assuming that was the signal; Silus charged into battle. He looked to be heading for the Orc with the warhorn. Recca knew that if he Blew that thing, they would have a huge problem on their hands. Recca stabbed his swords in the dirt and thrust out his hands summoning a ball of lighting, The crackling noise can only be heard in the vicinity of the camp, if he had pored in more magical energies making it bigger then he knew they would not even need that horn. He made it just big enough to singe the orcs hand if hit. If he hit he would make a dash for the orc with the Horn, grabbing his weapons before the run then sliding in to grab the horn and smash it so it could not be used. Rolling back wards to get to his feed and putting some distance between him and the orc, and taking a look quick around. Caleb had just put the hurt on two of the orc there, leaving a few more mop up. Looking at the in front of him, he was sure the orc would mad, almost to the point of raging. Recca would motion him to 'Come at him.' Taunting the orc into a fight leaving him open for the Ranger if he was watching the Battle from a far to Take a free and open shot hopefully putting him down.</div>"

The World of Alestoth

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""-=History=-"" type=""button"">-=History=- [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Legends state that long before the Age of Man, and even before the Age of Beasts there was an Age of Gods. It was during this time that our world of Alestoth was created and Gods walked its surface shaping the world as we knew it. It is said that Ristoth, The God of Creation, was the one to form the world and breath life upon it, And after centuries of creation he gave the world over to his children. His children then continued Ristoth's work each taking part of the world for themselves to shape as they saw fit. 

Although many of the stories and legends from that time have been lost, there is still one which has survived throughout the ages. The Fall of The Gods... Although it is unknown exactly how long the age of Gods lasted, we do know of its bloody end. For reasons now unknown the Gods who ruled the world as its creators and protectors became divided resulting in a war of Gods. The war was fierce as the Gods sent their loyal followers into battle against each other. And after one hundred years of fighting the war couldn't last any longer. Mankind was decimated by the war as countless lives had been thrown away over the God's squabble, and even the gods had given their lives in the war and the handful of remaining Gods declared a truce. And it was then that Ristoth returned to Alestoth, he gathered his remaining children and banished them from the Mortal Realm taking them to the High Heavens where they would no longer be able to harm themselves or the world. And with Ristoth's departure the Age of Gods was over.

After the Fall of The Gods Alestoth once again fell into chaos. Creatures and Beasts who once blindly served the gods who created them were now set free. And without the leash to bind them the Powerful creatures started to take the wold for themselves. With mankind still weakened from the War of The Gods the only way to survive was to find strong intelligent beasts who would protect them. So centuries passed as mankind slowly brought itself back from near extinction, during this time the tales of Ristoth and his children faded away as mankind began to worship the Beasts who protected them. But there were those among mankind who didn't want to live their lives governed by the will of beasts and eventually mankind was ready to rise again and stand on its own feet. 

With the Beasts who ruled Alestoth becoming weaker in their overconfidence mankind finally started to make its move. The first real victory over the Beasts came from the area now known as Illuim when the Hero Illuis lead his people to defeat the Great Serpent Xanboro. And as news of this victory spread mankind began to revolt against the beasts. The next major event that contributed to the fall of the beasts was the formation of the Black Order in the Kingdom of Tallos. The Order accepted any warrior who was willing to fight the beasts and liberate the lands controlled by the Great Beasts. It took ten years for the Black Order to reclaim the lands of man, but after driving back the Great Beasts it was finally time for the Dawn of The Age of Man.

It has been over five hundred years since the formation of the Black Order, and since the Great Beasts were pushed back into the Shadowlands. And in that time mankind has once again grown and has become the most powerful beings of the known world. With no great foe to unify against Mankind has turned its blades against itself many times leading to the rise and fall of many nations and powers. But throughout the years the Order has survived. It stands alone taking in men and woman from any nation who is willing to risk their lives to fight the beasts and monsters who invade the lands of man. They have remained free form any national tie, and are respected wherever they go.</div></div>

Taking in any man who was willing to fight the beasts The Order marched throughout the continent challenging great beast and liberating the humans who served them. It was because of the Order unifying mankind that the Age of Beasts was brought to an end. During the Age of Man the Order has remained, although its purpose has changed from liberating the people to defending them. The Order has outposts set up throughout the continent who respond to any attacks made from monsters or beasts. The Order also looks to expand the reach of humanity making plans to send its forces across the Great Ocean and to take the Shadow Lands freeing those who live under the rule of the beasts in those lands.

Once a large group of nomads during the Age of Beasts, the early people of Illuim found refuge in a Sea Side cavern where they were promised protection by the Great Serpent Xanboro. The deal was simple the Serpent would protect the Nomads in exchange for a sacrifice every two moons. This agreement lasted for quite some time, but Xanboro grew larger as years passed and thus he demanded more sacrifices. The people of Illuim continued to give the serpent its sacrifices knowing that the outside world was worse than the demands of a single snake. But there were those who knew that the people deserved more. Illuis was one of these men, a very influential man who set out with his Clan to face the Serpent. The battle was fierce and hard, but Illuis emerged a Hero slaying Xanboro and claiming the land as a home for the once nomadic people. The other Clan Lords pledged their loyalty to Illuis and the nation of Illuim was born. Since the Age of Man Illuim has grown into a strong independent nation that has protected its borders from all invaders. 

Government: Shogunate
The Nation of Illuim is ran by a system of Clans, While each clan has its own policies and traditions, the nation is ruled by a Shogun who's clan makes the political choices of the nation. The Shogun is the leader of the Clan which wins the “War of Succession” which follows the death of the previous Shogun. Although this used to be a full war between Clans, it has now become a test of skill where each Clan chooses ten competitors to represent them in the War. The Clan who wins the War moves into power until the Shogun's death.

The Five Great Clans: Since the Nation's founding there have been many clans who have sat in power of Illuim, But as time has passed many clans have fallen from power and today five major powers remain.

Clan Illuis - The clan that was formed under the great hero, they are known for their bravery and strategic brilliance making their home in the coastal cliffs where Illuim was first formed
Clan Thart- Illuim’s eastmost clan and most influenced by the United Empire. They are the mixing pot where the people of outside nations and Illuim combine creating almost an entirely new race.
Clan Blackiron- The Forge Masters of Illuim. Settling in the rocky terrain deep in the caverns the Ingus clan are known for their metallurgy and craftsmanship. 
Maggne- By far the largest clan in Illuim, they are primarily farmers and field workers growing the food to sustain the nation. Their domain lay across the open fields in Illuim’s teritory
Yamada- Lords of the Sea, the Yamada make up Illuim’s Navy and fishermen making their homes along the coastal region of Illuim.
 
Physical Appearance:
The people of Illuim are bronzed most working in the fields or at the seas. Dark Hair colors of browns and blacks with dark eye colors. Range from 5-6 feet mainly with body types to fit their region of the country.

Religion:
Although the people of Illuim know of the Gods, they rarely worship them and instead believe that a life of Honor and Happiness is the path to a meaningful life. But there are those throughout the country who do favor the gods especially in Thart which is so heavily influenced by the outside world and in the territory of that clan you may see statues and temples devoted to Ritoth. 

Capital:
<a href=""http://www.japanesetranslationservice.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/JapaneseCastle.jpg"">Yamanashi</a>, The Gem of the Mountain, Now stands in the cave where Xanboro first lead the wandering people of Illuim.

The Kingdom of Talos is one of the oldest and most powerful nations of Alestoth. It is said that Alestoth is the only surviving kingdom of the Age of Gods. It is said that Talos remained free from the beasts control and governed itself since the Fall of the Gods. As one of the few free states of the Age of Beasts the Kingdom of Talos has always held a strong military force to protect and even expand its borders. At the end of the Age of Beasts the Kingdom of Talos was one of the first nations to rise up after Illuims' victory and was key in driving the beasts back to the Shadow Lands. The King of Talos rules as the heir of Ristoth and embodies his will across the lands. The kingdom itself has grown since the Age of Man began taking in any nation whom wished to pledge loyalty to their king and Ristoth's will. This has made Talos one of the most powerful nations of man ever known.

Physical Appearance:

Suldan started as a small City-State which decided to govern itself after the fall of the beasts. And as Talos looked to grow its kingdom Suldan refused to submit to the kingdom's will. Outraged the Kingdom sent a force to take the City, but news of Suldan's defiance spread and when Talos' army arrived a grand force stood in defense of the City. Instead of starting a new war in the wake of the war with the beasts the troops from Talos returned home. And it wasn't long after that that Suldan rose as a nation taking in those who did not wish to be apart of the Kingdom of Talos. A republic was born as each City of respectable standing sent representatives to form a Congress. This Congress then formed the rules and policies for the new nation. And of course the Congressman from the City of Suldan was elected the first Chairmen of the Republic. As the Age of man has gone on the Republic of Suldan has grown.

A nation that still lives in the Age of Beasts. Silverfang is named for the Great High Dragon who rules over the land. But unlike many of the Great Beasts Silverfang respects her people and is fair to her followers. This proved the point when the Order fist came to eliminate the High Dragon and was meet with a barbarian hoard willing to defend the Dragon. The resulting battle was bloody and fierce, the Order was forced to retreat with heavy losses, but they were able to strike a devastating blow to Silverfang in the process. With the Barbarians being the only thing stopping the Order from eliminating the remaining beasts something had to be done. It wasn't long after that a truce was formed and the Order offered to let the Beasts remain, as long as those that served them still would call their masters fair.


Physical Appearance:
Those from the Silverfang Mountains are Tall, broad and fair. Men and women alike are uncommonly large and strong. 

Religion:
“The Beasts” Although in the Age of Man the idea seems far fetched, the People who live in the Silverfangs still worship the remaining Great Beasts that survived the Black Order. And although only Three Great Beasts remain outside the Shadowlands the Men of the Silvefangs would gladly risk their own lives to protect them. Although even the followers of this religion are divided most devoting themselves to one of the three Great Beasts.

Remaining Great Beasts:

Silverfang, The High Dragon. A dragon of old, known for her kindness and wisdom Silverfang once offered the humans who called the mountain home protection from the other beasts, But after an encounter with the Black Order she was wounded and retreated far into the mountains now asking her followers to protect her as she once protected them.

Katahdin, The Elder Bear. The massive Katahdin has roamed the forests of Silverfang for centuries. The bear has become a thing of legend Surviving its encounter with the Black Order and growing stronger from the encounter. The forests now fall under Katahdin's protection, and even the Order thinks twice before evoking the beasts wrath

Xanboro, The Great Serpent. After his defeat in Illuim Xanboro fled to the seas in search of a new home. Eventually he found himself on the shores of Silverfang and the clever snake brokered a deal with the powerful Dragon allowing him to make his new home there. And as before Xanboro offered protection to the humans who called the shores their homes. But with Silverfang still recovering from her encounter with the Order, the Snake has begun subjugating his people once again.

But those who are gifted with the Magic Marks are not looked down on, as the Chosen of the Gods these individuals are revered in all human nations, some choose these individuals as Leaders and Dignitary, while others see them as weapons and cultivate them into deadly arsenals for war.

-=The Magical Elements=-
Earth &lt;-&gt; Wind
Fire &lt;-&gt; Water
Darkness &lt;-&gt; Light
lightning &lt;-&gt; Arcane

Magic is learned by specific elements and must be learned and mastered separately. It is also easier to learn elements of the same alignment (see list above if its two on the left side the list they are same alignment)

Mastery levels go as follows Apprentice -&gt; Wizard -&gt; Sorcerer -&gt; Magi -&gt; Master -&gt; Sage

I will allow progression during the RP so nothing over Expert at start of rp. Also a mage can have up to 3 ""points"" in magi skills (basically as long as your starting skills add up or are less then 3 its ok, as in a Wizard in fire and Apprentice in Earth, a Sorcerer in one type with no training in anything else)

Progression will happen slowly naturally, but if you spend your free time training/studying you will learn the element faster.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 37

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Silverfang (Silverfanginite? Silverfangian? Silvin?) 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://comicsbulletin.com/main/sites/default/files/features/images/bogdanove/strongman10.jpg""/></div></div>
Gerhard is quite a muscular man of Silverfang descent, he stands at a sizable 6'4"" and appears as a quite imposing man due to such however, the large man's face always has a kind gesture a heart smile and a warm and welcoming demeanor, a dark brown mustache that is kept rather long is the only bit of hair to be found upon his head. It is easy to tell that the man had never worked an easy day in his life, for his body seems sculpted magnificently.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Gerhard Bergfalk, a man of raw physical might and staunch personality. For as long as he could remember Gerhard has been a laborer, working one menial job to the next essentially picking things up and putting them somewhere else. In time he became quite good at such physical labor. For years Gerhard lived like a dog, barely able to scrap enough money together to survive. A great being, Silverfang, though a beast still lived a life of plenty. This gave the man the very will to pull together, for if something as hated as a great beast by those who do not understand it can eek out a living, then by the powers that be so could Gerhard!

The mighty dragon known as Silverfang took a liking to the somewhat down on his luck man, just as she has done so many times before for her people. For years in the mountain homes Gerhard was taught of many things by the rather omniscient dragon, or perhaps she had manipulated his malleable heart. There he had learned the very basis for the morality that he employs today. Not all humans are good for the fact that they are human, there are people that are fiercer, more deadly, and most of all, even more treacherous than many of the beasts of the Shadowlands. And on the flip side, there do exist beasts that are slaughtered for the sole fact that they are beasts, some are just like Silverfang, not wishing harm among those who wish harm to herself. Gerhard's heart was soft, kind, forgiving, perhaps he had the ability to change the opinions of those around him, and yet he knew that many beasts must be slain if his way of life were to continue. With Silverfang's blessing Gerhard knew that he must place himself within the ranks of the Black Order if he truly wanted to fulfill his dreams, a life where beasts and men are brothers, not enemies.

Gerhard is a man among men, who often lets his demeanor and muscular fortitude do the talking for him, he has the capabilities for fine arts and strives to help everyone around him reach a certain perfection in at least one trait. A softhearted and kind soul he does not hesitate to place himself in danger's way if it means the protection of someone close to him. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style:</span> Gerhard is somewhat skilled in hand to hand combat, although he hasn't had much practice for he is a man of spirit and soul, contrary to his appearance. Heavy strikes and versatile grapples are what line the style of brawling that he employs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> Two heavy iron gauntlets that cover a portion of his knuckles, yet leaving enough open space for him to have mobility with his hands, these are the catalysts for his fighting style. And a supply of normal everyday shirts in abundance. (He tends to tear them often)

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities:</span> Gerhard is often considered a mountain of thought for his outward physical appearance and wisdom that he contains within. Unknown to him the large birthmark that resides at the sole on his right foot is in fact divine in nature. Gerhard never thinks to much about it, other than when he is in contact with earth it makes effect on his life. Although when there is dirt between the large man's toes, he feels at peace, perhaps even one with nature. 

This mark is completely unactivated and untapped into, it is unlikely that Gerhard ever will posses the knowledge or skill to activate it.

Other Information: Gerhard speaks with a heavy Scandinavian sounding accent!

<img src=""http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2013/342/1/9/archer_by_i_guyjin_i-d6x7x80.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>
Count Salezenathor was born as the younger brother of the current Duke Ironclast of Hannover.  Ironclast and Salezenathor were opposite in some ways: Ironclast preferred to fight close and be comfortable with the masses, while Salezenathor preferred to fight from a distance and only open up around smaller groups.  For the reign of their sickly father however, they complemented each other in maintaining the house.  They became better friends as they became worked more closely.

Their father, realizing his death was approaching, wrote in various gifts to each of his children.  This included an Shardbow for Salezenathor and a magical sword for Ironclast.

When illness finally killed their father, the duchy went to Ironclast and some ducal lands went to Salezenathor as a county.  For a while they remained friends, but then Ironclast got married and had a child, and then another one the next year.  Realizing that while his brother remained, his second born would have no lands to inherit.  Sal's brother, wanting to maintain his line as noble, started trying to get rid of Sal.  After a few minor skirmishes within the duchy the Count left, naming Ironclasts second son regent and heir.  

Salezenathor signed up with the Black Order, maintaining his title but losing the lands as a requirement.  Ironclast's murderous intentions remained however as he thought Salezenathor was just being clever.

While accomplishing nothing extremely note-worthy, Sal has started building a reputation as an excellent marksman and a skilled politician.  He has hunted in the evil woods for monsters of small to mid size as practice though, waiting to jump on the big game for when he as accurate with his bow as with his eye.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 40</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style</span>
Sal prefers to maintain a distance, shooting his arrows with great skill.  If he has to he will use a simple knife on them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>
Marksman: Salezenathor can shoot far and accurately, or mid distance and quickly depending on his bow.
Horseman: Salezenathor can ride like a knight, as comfortable on horseback as on foot.
Politician: While not able to speak to crowds, Sal is clever and in a conversation involving less than five people will get the better of the others.
Singer: Every camp needs a bard.
Sneaky: Although not a tracker, Sal can hide in the shadows.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>
Icon.  Rankoric Horses are bred for speed and intellect, moving faster and longer.  Small in stature yet strong, they have one defining characteristic: they choose a person and stick with them.  They will only obey commands from that person, will fight to defend them, and die for them if necessary.  They also live to be as old as the person who rides them, usually dying no later than a year after they do (although sometimes they change to a close friend, making some live for stupidly long lengths of time).  Icon chose Sal when Sal first left for the Order, in a way a sign from God that this was the right choice for him.
Boots of Silence: Make no noise as he walks.
Cloak of Weather Resistance: Anything natural has no effect on the wearer: a strong storm will not hit them, rain will not touch them, and ants will not bother them.  Monsters and magic will still hit the wearer though.
Folding bow: A bow that folds at the middle in a unique manner, allowing Sal to carry it discretely in his cloak if necessary.  Made to shoot quickly and at a mid range.
Shardbow: A bow of massive strength and size, it is theorized that from the Age of Gods this was a weapon that brought down deities.  When drawn, it will never snap no matter the tension, and it seems to shoot exponentially harder the stronger it is pulled, meaning if something tugged the string REALLY hard...
(Note: For a human this will only be maybe twice to three times as strong as normal, so he won't be shooting a railgun)
Jester: A magical flute.  Salezenathor is still trying to figure the damn thing out.

She is very strategic with her movement in combat and tends to overuse her energy of which tiring her, and doing this multiple times she gains a very athletic body, though due to her height (4.11) she seems very feeble and delicate. Yura has a calm and cute look to her appearance, most people around her treat her like a child or simply a weakling of who can barely do anything. Yura also is very clumsy and due to that she has received almost 4 cuts in her lifetime. One appearing on her arm and most of them are, and the other is on her leg. Yura's hair is fairly long, though she tends to keep it up in a bow, the length of her hair ends from her head to her shoulders, and her hair color is also black. Yura is very clean, due to her intelligence she has studied that, when burning water it kills various bacteria, thus she does not gain that dirty look to her skin. Yura is a very kind-hearted person, though mostly to animals but that doesn't mean she is rude. She relies on animals more than humans due to her stronger bind with animals that serve as companions listen to her more than humans. Around 'people' she has a very bubbly personality, casually talkative and very hyper, but she tends to show more of her friendship and love to animals and gives more thought to animals as well.</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span></div><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Ty'yura was abonanded at a young age, only seeing her mothers face of which that memory begins to become more scarce. Yura could feel the wet and cold ground as many ran to there homes, but a young barmaiden, only at the age of 23 lived by herself and took notice of Yura. The barmaiden, Asthian take care of Yura, without the knowledge of Yura and her parents. She gained the love of a mother, though with having Yura around her life became harder, Asthian didn't let the sadness or depression come over here. When she was at work she tried not to worry as she asked the neighbors nearby to watch her house, it was a mistake. As she let those 'supposed' friends into her house stuff began dissapearing and thus...making her even poor. Asthian couldn't handle the money of which she needed in the city for her house and so she had to move. Asthian barely had any money for her and Yura, she carried the weight and the weight of her heart out of talos, attempting to find work, but there was none. Asthian's love never went done, she cared and protected for Yura and never gave up, though she was at the end of the chapter. Asthian was infected with a sickness of whichh was highly dangerous, the 'flu'. She didn't have money for the medicine nor did she have the components to heal her from the flu. Asthian cried and cried, hugging her daughter around the campfire, weither it rained or snowed she would still love Yura at a her full extent. Soon after..her book was closed, Asthian couldn't stop the tears as she knew it was her finally night alive, and so she tried to call for help in the nearest town, but soon died. Yura was alone, crying out for Asthian, tears slowly sliding down her face as she ventures every inch of the area they both had camped out, but nothing. Soon after a guard had found her alone, crying with the only remnants of her mother, a sword and a book filled with stories that Asthian took the time to create and read to Yura. The guard had took her to the village, only 21 miles away from Talos. The guard tended to Yura's need, he was a single man with no family memembers in his household. Yura grew, without knowing the mans name as he was to be only called 'Pa' (or any other names that reffered to as Dad. ) The man would buy books from the library and at times take her to training to watch the guards train and clash swords. Pa wasn't the nicest man in the world as he was very stern and serious, yet he had the smile of a child and the voice that was soothing. Pa gave Yura all the advice he could about 'defense' he would casually teach her how to use a sword in different ways and creating diverse fighting styles. Pa knew that the sword Yura always held with her was the only remnant of her mom, as he had saw her drop down and die his heart tightened everytime he saw the sword, keeping a secret that he did not aid her Asthian. The sword become less heavier as she grew older, she became more fit, having the knowledge of a guard, though she had developed her own style of combat, many thought it was a bad idea and a waster of energy, though in reality it protected her more. Yura was a smart and intelliegent girl, her father provided her with multiple essays, questions, and books, they had practiced writing, the father gained the knowledge from a mage, as he too was slightly a mage, though very low as he ranked as an apprentice, the magic of the father didn't rub on her, though his knowledge from the mage did. Yura, had no memory of many people in her life but only the merchants and her Pa. People seemed to be very scarce as many didn't seem to have free time, they were busy or lazy. Most of the citizens in the village were only young adults and elders. (&lt;--extra) Yura was an adult, at the age of 18 she felt ready to go outside and thus she did, she moved to Alvina, soon creating a house. Her life was going into a next chapter, feeling adventurous and eager to explore, she joined..<span class=""bb-b"">The Black Order</span>.</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Fighting Style</span></div><br/>[i]Yura uses both her blade and sheath. The blade is simply for impaling multiple targets or target. While they sheath is used to block and stun opponents, by hitting with the sheath. The blade can be used as a stunning mechanic as well, though it would most likely break the decoration on Yura's blade and which she would cry if she lost or broke it. So Yura uses her agile movement and her ability to do acrobatics while in combat. Yura moves around her opponent with wind magic, gaining the ability to slide on the grass to move swiftly away and towards the opponent. Up close she tends to be a strike then move type of girl so she uses fast hand movements to get her way. The sheath casually comes in from time to time, when she is wanting to impale the target quickly she will use her sheath to dodge until she is able to finally strike the opponent. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2""></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Light Robes</span><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Light Robes"" type=""button"">Light Robes [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.blackdeserthq.com/gallery/images/BlackDesert_PC_02.png""/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">The Beast Tamer is a light clothed piece of armor, used for fast sword strikes and agile movements.

The weapon on the back is a sharp sword, its hilt is made out of wood and in the inside of it is metal. The blade itself is only 4ft tall, it is triangular at the tip and the rest is a long rectangle until it gets to the hilt. The hilt itself is thin and round, but not the sheath.

Bio: Recca was born in Talos, Half pure blood and Half native. He was Raised in the church and is a loyal to it. He father is pure blood and his mother was just a servant of the house Ryugal. When she became pregnant with the lords son, they were thrown out because the lords son said that she seduced him. Being only a servant, and he being the lords son, no one would've believed her anyway. When Recca was born, he bared the birthmark of magic on his back right shoulder. He had been chosen, and that's when the church took them in.

When he was old enough his mother told him of who his father was. Even though she had great distaste for his father and house Ryugal, she didn't want him to not know who he was. People often talked about him as the bastard son of house Ryugal, He never let any of the whispers in the dark get to him. he had a loving mother and a place to belong too. With the mark of the gods on his body he started training within the church at a young age. Honing his skills with magic and also swordsmanship. It was not long before he started to incorporate his own fighting technique. He called it Bararaku Inkeradosaika which means Lightning Sword of Extinction.

As he grew older and his magic grew stronger, he finally had risen to the rank of priest in the church. He took his vows of celibacy and was committed to the cause. Soon people around Talos started to call him the Lighting Priest. Serving as a ambassador in the Talos army, he would often join them on their patrols near the border to keep the stay monster at bay. Its not normal for one of the church to go out and fight but even their pope knew that Recca had a higher calling. He knew that Recca was no ordinary child when he first arrived at their church with his mother. He as something more.

Years have passed and Recca is now 28, he had made a name for himself. Training hard and working hard everyday to get out of the shadow of house Ryugal, and he obtained the rank of Monsignor. He service to the church was very committed and preaching the ways of Ristoth. His last meeting with the pope, he told him he would reach out to the Black Order. He felt like everything he did up until now was calling him to the Order. With the popes blessing he reminded him that he represents Talos and the church of Ristoth. And to remember the teachings will always guide him.

Fighting Style: Bararaku Inkeradosaika is a duel wield fighting style the focus on offense but also have some defense capabilities. With the help of magic one imbues its weapons with whatever element he is more proficient with. In Recca case Lighting is is main but he has other suppose spell to help him.

Equipment: Two Long swords fit in to a holster on his back in a cross shape manor. He keeps a bible with him where ever he goes. His clothes is like in the picture but on outside of his shoulder you can see a Cross on both arms (or whatever they use for Ristoth symbol.)

medium length blade should be around three feet (probably less if you want something short.) And longssword never weigh more than ten pounds always less and longs swords are much bigger. Weight doesnt effect a lot because smith draw the same amount of steel out to for a blade width and length. Your hilt either has a half tang or a full tang probably a full with the pommel hilt set up tightly hammered together or a rough thread for the pommel keeping the hilt in place.

@AiyvaGuard That is a lot of text walls but I see some problems. It looks like you are trying to be a whole lot of things at once. Beast Tamer, Warrior, Mage and what not I would prefer if you tried to focus on one and go with that. Especially due to the characters age It would be hard to master one of those things especially with her secluded life for a majority of the time. I really don't know what to say about it, but you have a whole lot of abilities without a way to explain how it happened. I would say pick one and add a little bit to your bio, then say with nowhere to go on your own you ended up joining the Order bla bla bla new home stuff.

@Hydra with the bit added you are good to go.

Standing at about 5’8ft, he is a bit on the tall side.
Always found wearing a glare, his azure blue eyes always pierced people deeply. Hair always in disorder, he never really cared much for his looks, and thus has always kept it unkempt. Has a Darkness symbol under his left wrist.

Bio:
Not remembering much of his childhood, only that he’s been with his brother for as long as he can remember. Growing up as orphans in Alvina, and barely being able to live day after day by barely scraping up enough money for a meager piece of bread that was shared between the brothers. This would eventually fall short one day, and almost close to death due to hunger, a mysterious, old and haggard man came and offered them housing and food, under the pretense that they join his organization, “The Gray Hand.” Being unable to refuse, they accepted and were taken under his wing.

The man taught and trained both the brothers in the way of assassination, seeing them as pawns that would be useful to the organization in the future. Growing up in a ragged and tough life, Llynn has become Sharp-Tongued, Cold and a tad bit Irritable but still having some compassion. 

Finally coming of age to take on his first assassination mission with his brother.

Easily overpowering the man he was assigned to kill, even without the help of his brother, all he had to do was finish the job, but he had mixed thoughts, while he did not care for the man, he didn’t want to outright murder him without good reason. 
“Hey, what are you doing, kill him.” said Caleb, under the shadow of a tree.
“Bu- But he could be innocent for all we know.” Llynn replies.
“No, he's not. You can't be sure, not now, not ever- if you want to live, that is. Follow the Master's orders, we can't bite the hand that feeds us, Llynn.” retorted Caleb with a look of indifference on his face. 

With eyes of regret, he finally musters up the resolve to finish off the man, he kept telling himself that the reason he was killing this person was because he <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> too, for all he knows this person was probably a low-life who was asked to be assassinated.
Repeating these reasons in his head, no matter how foolish they were, he finally managed to deliver the final blow. Offering a small prayer, Llynn left his body to rot. Being patted on the back by his brother after finishing off the man.

After each and every mission he had, he grew ever colder. Always telling himself that they deserved to be killed and it wasn’t ‘his’ fault. This put a great mental burden on Llynn. Whenever he came back, his brother would always shoot that same smirk on his face and say “Good work.”

In time, the brothers both reached their limits by being tasked to murder an innocent family to ‘test’ their loyalty to the organization, this mission would happen in a few weeks, the brothers were awestruck. They nodded meekly, but they both knew that they would not be able to do that, both of them planned their escape.

When the brothers set off their escape plan, it was going rather smoothly until at the last moment, they were spotted by one of the tower guards. Racing the alarm, they panicked to get to the last exit, almost making it out, Llynn gets caught by one of the traps set down for intruders. Getting instantly knocked out, the next thing he knew is that he was strapped on to a table, getting tortured for ‘betraying’ the organization.

After a long and gruesome torture, perhaps because of all the pain, he finally fell unconscious with one last with a blunt plank. 

Llynn waking up with Retrograde amnesia, he forgot almost everything he knew only that he was part of the order and, the order taking advantage of this, continue to send him out for missions. Unable to remember his purpose, he continued to execute his missions, but eventually his memories started to come back after each mission, with his hate for the order growing ever stronger. Honing his skill before trying to escape, he also found out that he had been able to use lightning that was siphoned from the symbol that was under his left wrist. Training every single day, with contempt and malice towards the order, he had manage to get, through rigorous training, ‘Apprentice’ level with Darkness and improved his combat experience. He finally made his escape, killing a sizable number of the order before his way out.

Now he seeks Redemption for his wrongdoings and also seeks out members of “The Gray Hand”, he sought out the ‘Black Order’, in an attempt to try and undo his wrongdoings. It is said that this order was formed during the ‘Age of the Beasts’ whose main purpose was to free men from the servitude of beasts. Finally finding this rather, elusive order, he finally managed to join them,

Walking in the halls of the black order he was rather amazed at the grandeur size of the building.
Then seeing a man leaning back on a pillar, he clutches his head in pain and recollects the smirk he saw on his face.

<span class=""bb-i"">“Brother~”</span>  called the voice under the shadow of the pillar.

-BACKGROUND AND BIO-


""Abandoned"" by their parents at an unknown age in the roughest parts of Alvina, Caleb and Llynn were lost children from the start. As a result, Caleb brought it upon himself to learn how to take good care of his younger brother, Llynn. Shouldering the responsibilities of both a brother and a father, he carried the burden of holding his brother's hand along their entire journey, even when he himself had no clue where they were to go. The pair traveled aplenty- to here, there and far, far away; their home was never in one place. Their feet scabbed, heads ached and hearts faltered. They grew up as vagabonds, stretching themselves to the limit as they struggled to make ends meet in the pitiful, measly villages they ended up in. 

They continued to live like this until Caleb reached 5 summers, and Llynn: 2. At this point they were barely even alive, lying on the streets of an unknown town on disease-ridden sheets, as villagers paid them no heed. Time and time again had they been put in a situation where one of them almost gave out, both physically and mentally. Due to living life as far as they did with the lack of basic human resources, one could tell that their end was near- and with things the way they were, the brothers would have been extremely thankful for it.

...up until one fateful meeting with a mysterious, aged man who looked shadier than anything, offered a helping hand. Whether they were in for anything, they had no idea; and they soon found out. 

The brothers were brought by the man and his men to a ghost town, located in the furthest south region of Alvina- Caleb guessed. Llynn casually clung to Caleb in an attempt to shake off the feeling that something terribly wrong was about to take place that day... and that it did. On that very day, they signed a contract with the man who took them in as their ""children"", or rather, assassins. Llynn, at a young age had the intuition of the ancients. Being less impulsive than his brother, he hesitated as he watched Caleb sign both their contract in his blood. The deal was made, and thus their shackles were locked.

The duo spent the rest of their days filing out and hunting down people that ranged from citizens to official authorities. Trained to be the best, the pair simply would walk through a crowd, clad in cloaks- and that would already mean one less soul around the block. They were trained by their 'Master' in the most gruesome ways possible, in order to rise within the ranks of their organization, ""The Gray Hand"". Caleb and his brother were top-notch in hand-to-hand combat, with scars and bruises that will never fade to prove that. However, when they hunted out in pairs, especially during stealth missions, Caleb honored his nation's soldiers by using their weapon of choice and got better at it: the saber. Quick, easy and painless. Years passed ever since their first assassination, and at this point Caleb had grown jaded to his unlawful killings. He had never known the people personally, so in turn he never found out whether his targets, or victims, were innocent or not. This thought nagged at him, ate away at him for years on end. Llynn had made it even worse for him, by pressuring him to stop what they're doing every now and then- just pack up and leave. The thought resided in his mind too, Caleb realized. But how could they ever leave? The elder brother prioritized his beloved sibling's life the most, even if that meant he'd have to become a cold, heartless killer in order to keep Llynn well and standing.

Caleb's heart hardened when his Master assigned them the duo's final ""task"" to prove their loyalty and dedication, to stand with the guild through thick and thin. One look at Llynn had Caleb sure that he was thinking the exact same thing. They were told to ""get rid"" of a family of 5. The parents, three children- two boys and one girl. Caleb shuddered as he looked at his Master in disgust, but only for a moment to not get caught. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""...we can't do this.""</span> Llynn sounded defeated.

<span class=""bb-b"">""I know. My heart aches for them, but we have to. You know that.""</span> Caleb thought a bit longer. <span class=""bb-b"">""...or we could escape.""</span>

The plan took several days until the time they had to head out to seek the family and secure their demise. They would run across the forests in separate directions, to confuse the armed soldiers- but their well-thought out plan had gone terribly, terribly wrong. Caleb had managed to make it out alive, however, the fate of his dear brother now lay in the hands of The Gray Hand.


---




Up until now, Caleb Brèvedent is a fierce, hot-headed young man who values his pride and Llynn more than anything. He prefers to think of the situation first, prioritizing logic over morals at times. A year after he turned 23 and escaped the haunting grips of The Gray Hand, he made a name for himself at a local Alvinian bakery, to keep his past under wraps. However, his plan was in vain as his original identity was scouted out and in the end, recruited to serve The Black Order to ""repent"". He gladly accepted and trained with all his might; to hunt predators- both beasts and those from his organization alike and to seek out his brother. Caleb wanted to wash the dirt off his hands, to rid himself off his past misdeeds and redeem himself for serial murder. The blood would never wash off, he knew- but he <span class=""bb-i"">also</span> knew now, that at least he would be doing the community some good and freeing them of their worries.

All was well until he was graced by a familiar presence in the halls of The Black Order.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Brother~""</span></span>   I called out.

Light and agile on his feet, Caleb waltzes around the battlegrounds with a bounce in his step and allows the flow of his swords to do his work for him, quick and effortless. Before finishing off his targets, Caleb likes to play around with his opponents. There's nothing more satisfying than to have your targets panic and beg for their lives.</div></div>

Cloak of Hiding - Self explanatory. Given by The Gray Hand as a commemorative token, it should've been burned as soon as he escaped but figured it would be put to good use.

Body Armour - A combination of leather and cloth to allow flexibility at the joints, and iron-steel at his most vulnerable areas- namely his chest, legs, etc.

Dual Sabers</div></div>

From conditioning his feet during his early years to managing his stamina and flexibility, Caleb was trained for the acrobatics and endurance. He is able to run for hours without getting tired, and is gifted at slinking in and out of a given area at will, making him a great scout- and well, assassin.

Caleb possesses a faint birthmark on his right wrist, which channels his powers that had ""accidentally"" manifested during one of his early scouting missions when he blinded his target, leaving him dazed and his eyes bleeding. The light magic is used very rarely whenever Caleb panics, unaware of its full potential.

-Light - Apprentice
-Acrobatics
-Swordsmanship
-Baking (best buns in town yo)
-Herb gathering, self-taught during his early years travelling with his brother.

Gerhard Bergfalk the Wise Brawler.  Probably will help us with diplomacy both with his words and his fists.  Wants to bring peace between all, but understands that we must defend humanity.

Salezenathor the Noble Ranger.  Probably will help the group reach monsters by forcing them to slow down with an arrow to the knee.  Wants to be more in tune with nature, and serve a righteous cause.

Recca HeartSeeker the Holy Mage.  Probably will help keep relations with Talos as well as help deal damage to the massive creatures, especially if in water.  Seeks to spread the Gospel first with the party, then the rest of the order, then the world.</div>"

The only gripe I have is your magic level, I wanted those who would start at a Sorcerer level to be solely mages giving them some nice spellpower to make up for their lack of strength with a blade. with your character learning of this magic only after is separation from the brother, which if I'm reading right was only about a year of trying to learn magic, so with that much time to learn I would say your still on the Apprentice level.

The only gripe I have is your magic level, I wanted those who would start at a Sorcerer level to be solely mages giving them some nice spellpower to make up for their lack of strength with a blade. with your character learning of this magic only after is separation from the brother, which if I'm reading right was only about a year of trying to learn magic, so with that much time to learn I would say your still on the Apprentice level.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/arthanus"">@Arthanus</a></footer></blockquote>

HSR3 - Dagotion Class Liveship

<span class=""bb-b"">Semi-Sentience Profile</span>
The AI helps out with the citizens more than the captain, because he installed a program to allow that to happen. Because of that, the AI is kind and motherly towards the citizens and the crew members. The AI can give updates of the ship, keeps up to date of the citizens' population, and many other things that AIs do. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Escort Ships</span>
HSR2 - Neloth Class Escort Cruiser - Captain Marcus Alison

<span class=""bb-b"">Ship Details/History</span>
An anomaly to the Royal Navy Fleet, due to being the only class to be able to house non-military people. The ship can house up to 100,000 human and non-human citizens alike. The ship replaced it's heavy weapon systems from the point defenses, suited to be able to take out enemy strikecraft swarms, frigates, destroyers, and missiles. And the light armor got replace by heavily armored, which decreased the ship's speed. 

The ship has a council, where the group of ten meet to talk about the peoples' needs, the state of the ship, and many other issues talked about in the meetings. The group is mostly made up of humans; but, only two non-humans are allow in the council. It's a democratically-elected council, where the heads are voted into the spot in the council. The captain is always the second head of the council until he dies and gets replace by another one.

Most of their laws and customs revolve around this goal. It is illegal for couples to have more than one child, so that the ship can maintain zero population growth (if the population begins to shrink, this rule is temporarily lifted, and incentives may be provided to encourage multiple births). Families are thus very small and close-knit. Because the people depend on his or her crewmates to survive, they are much more community-minded. Loyalty, trust, and cooperation are highly prized qualities.

Ship Type: Arsenal-class Gun-Runner (HSR3 'Artillery Ship')
Semi-Sentience Profile: Aggressive and murderous though prideful and vengeful. Regards the three escort spacecraft charged with his protection as valuable allies, but does not like Aker's handler, Captain Melrek, at all. Vres has attempted to appeal to the warship's mode of thinking on multiple attempts, but Apedemak's hate for Melrek has no discernible justification whatsoever.

-<span class=""bb-i"">Apedemak's  War Totem</span>

	From her own experiences with war, Vres has come to praise the wizened yet proven missile and the primordial but mature artillery cannon for their mutual reliability, raw potential for destruction and their impressive effectiveness against both voidships and planetary targets, but she is not overly fond of strike craft or DEWs. Ergo, Vres has had Apedemak stripped of his hanger bays and phased x-ray laser arrays, with both original installments being surrogated by a generous selection of supplementary launch cells loaded with high-yield thermonuclear missiles, orthodox close-in weapon emplacements and a network of super-heavy fission-pulse gun batteries. 

	Apedemak's hull is divided into thirty independent fighting compartments cumulatively refereed to as <span class=""bb-i"">Apedemak's Teeth</span>. Each Tooth possesses its own dedicated crew complement, shield projector, fission-fusion hybrid reactor, auxiliary power systems, armaments, gun targeting computers, life support systems, crew accommodations, and other necessary facilities and apparatuses commonly ascribed to a basic martial space vessel; four of the compartments fully encompass Apedemak's CIC module, gifting Vres, the warship's intelligence node and the CIC's command staff with additional protection from enemy attacks.   

        Forward thrust is delivered by a clutch of exceedingly potent atomic detonation torch drives that can be re-purposed into a dauntingly powerful (but very short-ranged) directed-energy weapon if dire combat circumstances arise. Apedemak's engines bless him with an unusually-high measure of tempo for such a substantial beast of metal and circuits, though his weight and weedy reaction control systems limit his maneuverability by a sizable margin.

-Complement: 2,500, 250 of which are warrior detail. Much of the ship's crew consists of damage control engineers, medical technicians and Teeth Masters (officers). Warrior detail is not the primary solution to boarders; this crucial role falls to Apedemak himself.  
-Length: 5.1 kilometers

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Larestan. Larestans are artificial abhumans with a resemblance to Terran canines, such as wolves and dogs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Augmentics:</span> In addition to the standard array of officer cybernetics, Captain Lutzen has an implant visually reminiscent of an eyepatch which occupies the space of his right eye. This actually allows him to see  and alternate through the cameras outfitted to his vessel, giving him excellent situational awareness. It is outfitted with an emergency system somewhat akin to a surge protector that dims or cuts the feed if it receives input that could be harmful, such as staring directly into a star or other such intensely bright visuals. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Captain.

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> TBA

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> A somewhat tall lupine-like individual with a black pelt and yellow eyes. He wears a Royal Navy officer coat as well as a peaked cap bearing the insignia of the service. Though it is against regulations under normal circumstances, he has achieved a concession allowing him to wear some of his medals from his old service, the Kaiserliche Weltraum Marine, alongside those issued by the Royal Navy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Captain Lutzen prefers inelegant, straightforward solutions to problems. He is particularly fond of head on attacks, and is prone to impatience when it comes to carrying out more sophisticated maneuvers. “No captain can do wrong if he puts his ship alongside the nearest enemy” is a quotation close to his heart. As a result, his poor vessel is very frequently subjected to repairs. He is abundantly energetic, impulsive and somewhat eccentric. It is this slight mental instability that fuels what the more generous term his “bravery.” He also at times has a rather tenuous grasp of the Kingdom's lingua franca, and is prone to mistakes. Lutzen is also somewhat vain.

His hotheadedness sometimes is exhibited off the battlefield as well. His ocular cybernetic is in fact a consequence of one of his many duels he participated in during naval academy. ""At least I came second,"" he reassures himself. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Part One: Racial History"" type=""button"">Part One: Racial History [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">During the height of human domination of the galaxy under the Arcturian Empire, Heimbach-Karlsson, an industrial megacorporation, received imperial authority to colonize a sector of the galaxy. While technically part of the empire, they enjoyed a great deal of autonomy. Central to these holdings was the Larestan system, much sought after for its abundance of resource rich planets. The megacorporation devised artificial laborers designed to inhabit and work the surface of the Larestan worlds. With the humanocentric mentality of the Empire at the time, it would have been frowned upon to have made them exact duplicates of humans for the sole purpose of slavery, so they additionally aimed to differentiate them from mankind and thereby sidestep legislation by creating a wholly new subrace. Through combining canines and humans, they produced what they termed the Hundmenschen (though they're more commonly referred to as Larestans by the rest of the galaxy.)

With the collapse of the Arcturian Empire, Heimbach-Karlsson also fell into decline. With this, the Larestans grew opportunistic. For too long they had suffered under the rule of masters who viewed them as only intelligent tools, and they saw this as the time to seize control of their own destiny among the stars. Their occupiers were demoralized and weakened after the wave of disasters that had brought the Empire to its death. Furthermore, the bulk of the fleet was committed to defending the Heimbach-Karlsson core-worlds, and so the skeleton force left behind to safeguard the Larestan system were in no position to hold onto the worlds.

The formation of the first independent Larestan nation was thus inevitable. With their own culture they developed over the centuries of human domination being too transient and nebulously defined to base their new society upon, a lot of it was instead built off of emulation of their former masters. They were at first the Kingdom of Hundestaat, and as they flexed the muscles of their mighty new warmachine, owed greatly to the remnant industrial infrastructure left behind by their own masters, this expanded into Imperial Hundestaat through the dark ages. 

Haughty with their hard earned prosperity, they turned an imperialistic eye towards the territories of their closest neighbour: The Kingdom of Far Valyrius. While powerful, their arrogance was to prove their undoing. Five years before the far more prolonged war against the Arian Jihad, Larestan Kaiser Larrstein II was so confident of victory that he ordered the bulk of his fleet to smash through, straight to the Far Valyrius homeworld of Throne. Of all the things the Larestans had inherited from their former human masters, the idiom of ""don't put all your eggs in one basket"" was not one of them. While it was an impressive force, they were easily encircled, out maneuvered and consequently annihilated by the far more tactically astute Royal Navy. 

Not a single Larestan soldier managed to set foot upon any planet belonging to the Kingdom of Far Valyrius. The Valyrius-Hundestaat War ended only six months after commencement, and with catastrophic losses for Imperial Hundestaat. Extremely demoralized, civil discord and even rebellion broke out on nearly every planet within their borders. Their economy went into a free fall as their industry strained and collapsed under the weight of their horrific losses. Kaiser Larrstein II was forced to abdicate, and the new civilian government surrendered to the Kingdom of Far Valyrius only a day after being formed. Their warmachine was so badly bloodied after their failure that this eventually was followed by Hundestaat declaring vassalage to the Kingdom of Far Valyrius. 

With their new status as a vassal-state, their territories and even the remnants of their military were incorporated into His Unapproachable Grace's. Larestan personnel and vessels served under the banner of King Odyssius XVII in the war against the Arian Jihad. While a few examples stood out and served with distinction, the majority of them proved to be quite apathetic, poorly motivated allies.</div></div>

In the Valyrius-Hundestaat War he served aboard the Kaiserliche Weltraum Marine vessel, the Linienschiff <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span>. Though he participated in earlier skirmishes, his true defining moment in that war was  during and after the apocalyptic Battle of Throne (It actually took place a considerable distance away from the planet, but it is erroneously remembered as occurring just above the planet in Larestan historiography; a popular misconception formed as part of a wave of “lost victory” literature that emerged after the conclusion of war. Lutzen's own self-acquitting memoirs, titled “Why Didn't You Listen?”, contributed to this notion of the war being something that they were only a hair away from winning.) 

In the middle of the fiercest fighting the battle saw, Captain Lutzen and his ship Lohengrin forged ahead, straight into the Royal Navy formations. With his adversaries stunned by the audacity of this attack, he and his crew managed to inflict some serious damage during the surprise, but themselves sustained many blows. Captain Lutzen maintains that it was during this attack that he managed to score a few hits on the King's flagship, <span class=""bb-i"">Ancestral Right</span>, but these claims remain unfounded. Either that or the damage he inflicted was only negligible (the ship's logs do report one communications antenna blown away around the time that Captain Lutzen was in range, after all.)

He proved to be a further thorn in the side of the Royal Navy as, when the battle finally appeared to be truly lost, he fled from the area, beginning a long pursuit that went back and forth across Valyrius space. Though there was little Lutzen and his crew alone could do to change the tide of the already lost war, the King's Admiralty were determined to capture this straggler vessel as a symbolic conclusion to the war that was now eluding them. 

When he received word that the Kaiser had abdicated and his nation was to surrender, he, with incredible reluctance, beamed a message to his pursuers. In it, he not only complimented the Royal Navy on being “great fun”, but also announced his own capitulation and the surrender of his vessel. Captain Lutzen and his crew were taken into custody, as with the rest of the defeated captives of his disgraced nation. 

When Hundestaat formally became part of the Kingdom, Captain Lutzen and his crew were pardoned and pressed into service in the Royal Navy. His crew is even today mostly comprised of Larestans, though with many humans and other races loyal to the Kingdom also serving aboard his ship. 

In the Arian Wars he was able to spare the <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span> from its intended fate of being disarmed and held as a monument of the Kingdom's victory over Hundestaat. Desperation compelled the Kingdom to use anything available to them, and so Captain Lutzen was reunited with his mighty <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span>.  Besides, the common lineage of Hundestaat and Valyrian vessels to those of the Empire made it much easier to adapt the <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span> to the Royal Navy's infrastructure and logistics than the vessels of other alien races that had sworn allegiance to the king.

Though he never did anything quite as audacious as his lone ship charge right into a mass of enemy ships in the Battle of Throne, his predisposition for recklessness continued to show itself time and time again through the Arian War, where he frequently got into vicious brawls with enemy ships and refused to retreat, even when odds were drastically stacked against him. The one instance of Captain Lutzen personally issuing such an order in the course of the war was during an engagement with the HRS4 <span class=""bb-i"">Arian's Dream</span>, which even then was only after, in his words, ""Taking our best whack at cracking it."" While he is undoubtedly a credit to the service, it is believed this recklessness is what has stalled his career, as expanding his authority over even more lives is generally held to be a rather bad idea.</div></div>

Ship Details/History:
The <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span> is the second of the five Kaiser Larrstein I-class battlecruisers Imperial Hundestaat constructed before its defeat and incorporation into the Kingdom. Though they were referred to as Linienschiff (""battleships"") in the Hundestaat Kaiserliche Weltraum Marine, this was more for propaganda. Kaiser Larrstein I-class ships are actually a Hundestaat adaptation of the Arcturian Fisher-class battlecruiser, a ship that straddles the line between HRS3 and HRS4 (though is often considered HRS3 for convenience.) The Fisher-class were intended to be close-quarters brawlers and have most of their armament situated in broadside mounts. A balance of suitable protection and speed was aimed for in order to help it close in on the enemy and outlast them. 

Similar to the Dratha-class, which is in some respects its big brother, the Fisher-class has next to no hangar capacity. The Kaiser Larrstein I-class variation actually does away with hangars entirely, aside from a small launch for reconnaissance craft, as well as other utility vehicles. The Larestans never particularly warmed up to the idea of carriers and strikecraft. While they had both, they generally preferred outfitting ships with heavier cannonries.

Beneath its three decks of broadside batteries are port and starboard facing torpedo tubes, as opposed to the more commonly encountered forward facing ones.  Additionally, it has several center-line mounted turrets for medium range combat, but these are primarily for pursuits and to soften shielding as the Lohengrin closes in to bring its heavier broadside guns to bear.  

- Complement: 5,000 crew. While Hundestaatian AI is not as advanced as some other examples encountered in the galaxy, it does allow for a higher degree of automation than their Royal Navy's counterparts.
- primary weapons/fleet function: The <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span> is outfitted with an incredible amount of cannons arrayed along its sides. In fact, the original Fisher-class had only two gun decks. The Kaiser Larrestein I-class added a whole new deck on top of the original two. The lower two decks carry the heaviest armaments, and the top deck houses an array of smaller, more rapidly firing guns. All guns can traverse, elevate and depress, albeit to a limited degree. The <span class=""bb-i"">Lohengrin</span> was intended for fighting on the most immediate front-line. It is outfitted with strafing thrusters to help it adjust distance when lining up to unleash its characteristic devastating broadsides. The bridge is built on top of a unique turret-like mounting, allowing it to traverse about 180 degrees. 

- Muhreens: No assault shuttles to speak of, and no marines, but the ship does have a contingent of Navy Troopers to thwart boarding attempts and for general security purposes.
- ""Strike""craft: A small detachment of 5 <span class=""bb-i"">Palantir</span> Unmanned Reconnaissance Drones, as well as a host of utilitarian vehicles, most of which intended to perform minor battlefield repairs. </div>"

She respects her superiors though finds it difficult to hide her disdain for orders or individuals whom she finds incompetent or faulty. While many of her peers find her aggravating or crude, what they can all agree on is that she holds herself less like a woman and more like a force of nature. The cult of personality she has cultivated amongst her crew and the fleet at large through her exploits and laid back demeanor seem to have gone to her head, she has adopted the larger than life persona of a pirate queen(not that she would ever call herself a queen as if she were equal to His Majesty) that follows her wherever she goes. She considers herself to be one of the only members of the fleet who is willing to do anything it takes to see the Kingdom of Far Valyrius and His Grace Odyssius XVII reach their rightful place in the sun.

Personal History: To make an exceedingly long story short, Yekaterina made her name as a raider captain deep in Arian territory during the Jihad. After the Techno-barbarians began to christen her and her crew vile pirates she decided to embrace the persona, adopting a piratical costume and flying a jolly roger.  (not an actual flag, but it shows up on most transmissions between ships or exchanges of data) After the Jihad's end she had racked up enough commendations and kills as to see her be given the rank of Commodore (being nobility also helped) and given the new task of commanding an entire squadron of raider vessels for the Reconquest campaign.

Groomed to take over rule of the Barony of Ingram located on the Kingdom world of Adriatus in the Vos system, she was pampered as a little girl and taught by the best tutors money could buy. Her story did not come into its own until she enrolled in the Royal Naval Academy at the onset of the Arian Jihad. There she was found to be gifted in the arts of tactics and command. She was quickly chosen as her class's group leader through her electric personality and keen mind. It was here that her rebellious streak began to show itself. During wargames and tactical exercises she gained the ire of her instructors for bending and exploiting the rules instead of following established doctrines. She was nearly expelled from the academy for an act of insubordination, though the heavy pleas of her family ensured she was heavily reprimanded instead. Once she graduated (barely despite such a strong start) she was first assigned as third officer aboard the <span class=""bb-i"">Gothren</span> Class ship <span class=""bb-i"">Volcano</span>. Her rise through the ranks could only be described as meteoric, a stray shot from a transhumanist vessel managed to pierce through the bridge of the vessel killing the Captain as well as a majority of the bridge staff. Yekaterina suddenly found herself in command of the crippled artillery ship from the auxiliary bridge. 

Her heroic command of the <span class=""bb-i"">Volcano</span> for the duration of the battle saw her awarded the Navy Cross and promoted to the rank of Commander. From there she would be given her first command, the <span class=""bb-i"">Neloth class</span> escort cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span>. The <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> was given a mission to destabilize the actions of the Transhumanist menace. Striking deep into territory held by the Techno-barbarian warlord Arius their goal was to simply keep the Jihad fleets' hands full. Striking quickly from subspace on unprotected supply barges and troop ships that thought they were safe so far behind the front. The lighter weapons of the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> suited these lightning raids on enemy infrastructure. Soon the Techno-barbarian communications networks were filled with talk of the damnable Valyrian pirate who was raising hell all over the domain of Arius. The event that brought the name Yekaterina Tsukishima Alexandrovna Von Ingram  (quite the mouthful) to the attention of even the royal family itself was the destruction of the mobile shipyard <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span>. The massive vessel was an ancient relic predating the fall of the Arcturian Empire was little more than a massive automated factory complex slaved to equally massive drives. Constantly moving from place to place leaving an endless stream of war materiel in its wake, <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> was one of the most hotly sought after targets for Fleet command because of how elusive it was. There is little to say about the attack on <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> itself, it was more of a happy accident that brought it and the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> into the same region of space at the same time. Intending to attack what she thought was a just another convoy, she dropped out of subpspace only to be greeted by the battleship sized mass of machinery that had eluded her and the rest of the Royal Navy for so long. While it may have been massive, few people think to armor factories, and the <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> was no exception. In classic form she was in and out before the local forces even noticed. 

A promotion to full captain and a new command were in order for the returning Yekaterina, not to mention a host of medals and commendations to add to her growing collection. Her gift for her glorious victory was the command of the <span class=""bb-i"">Indoril</span> class Strike Cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span>. A proper capital ship to call her own, now Captain Alexandrovna was once again given orders to raise havoc deep behind enemy lines. The bigger guns and greater range of the Indoril class over her previous charges meant that the escort ships that once turned her away from her prey were just as vulnerable as their defenseless charges. The <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur</span> would be the ship she would command for the remainder of the Jihad as she continued to launch deadly raids on the soft underbelly of the enemy, every ship her actions forced into convoy escort work bringing the war that much closer to a close.

When the dust finally settled Yekaterina was promoted once more to the rank of Commodore and assigned to the Second Royal Expeditionary Force whose mission was the reconquest of territory that rightfully belonged to the Crown of Far Valyrius. the <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span> would become her flagship as commander of Special Task Squadron Rho, a squadron whose mission was what Yekaterina did best: sow chaos. A mixed force built for asymmetric strikes against the areas the enemy is weakest, Special Task Squadron Rho is not meant to take part in proper fleet conflicts, in fact if it does its job properly those conflicts may not even occur.</div></div>

Ship Type: Indoril class strike cruiser (Aryon class variant)

Semi-Sentience Profile: The Semi-Sentience of the <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span> is the same one that was in the ship when it was still an Aryon class vessel. Like many older Semi-sentiences the <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur's</span> mind is incredibly bestial and primal, more like a large animal than an intelligent computer. Yekaterina has described its temperament as being highly aggressive, relishing in acts of bloodshed and destruction. While it had initially chaffed at having its big guns removed, it soon took to its new duty as a proud huntress with much gusto, under her new commander the <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur</span> has slain many foes and continues to do so. Considering all of this Yekaterina has christened her ship's Semi-Sentience <span class=""bb-b"">Wargoddess.</span>

 Ship Details/History: The Indoril class are not a unique class of ship but are instead a heavy modification of the existing Aryon design. The first Indorils were made from Aryons pulled from front line service due to damage too extreme to be simply repaired. Instead of being broken up, some of the more better off vessels were heavily refit into a class of super-heavy raiders

Captained by her former first mate the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> is a ship that Commodore Alexandrovna knows she can count on at all times.

- primary weapons/fleet function: The Decatur was one of the first Indoril class ships 'built' during the Jihad and therefore is less standardized than later additions to the line. Two of the Back-breaker cannons were removed entirely from the ship, and were instead replaced with larger hangar bays and more reaction mass allowing for greater strategic range and a worthwhile strike craft compliment. The removal of the massive guns also freed up reactor energy for an additional battery of plasma artillery along each broadside.

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Human
<span class=""bb-b"">Augmentics:</span> In addition to the neural interface hardware attached to the base of the neck, Captain Belasko has received surgically-implanted synthetic eyes tethered directly to the optic chiasma. These pearly bulbs of iridescent crystal replaced his true eyes after he was rendered irreparably blind upon directly witnessing a nuclear blast during battle. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Captain
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> Captain Belasko is an man of caucasian descent. Though he is in his late thirties, he appears ten to fifteen years older. Shallow crows feet radiate outward from the corner of his lips and eyes. While he has a thick head of hair cut short to the regulation 4 centimeters, the color has begun to drain from his head at an early age with grayed hairs intermixed with the brown. His iridescent synthetic eyes rarely blink for lack of need. His gaze is stoic and very seldom does it betray any sense of attitude or emotion.
<span class=""bb-b"">Personal History:</span> Gillam Belasko was born on Adriatus in the Vos System to peasant parents. His childhood was fairly unremarkable and he feared his entire life would be wasted in ignominy. In his late teenage years, Gillam left his home and parents to enlist in the Naval Academy in a final bid to accomplish something more substantial with his life. Though he had only received a standard education, Gillam made it through the rigorous entry exams by means of diligent and exhaustive study. During his training at the Academy, the Empire enjoyed a period of peace. There was, therefore, no pressing need to generate new officers and so enrollment in the Academy was very competitive. In order to keep pace with the more thoroughly-educated cadets - often the sons of nobles - Gillam found it necessary to work twice as hard most of his peers to keep from washing out. Even in the face of stiff competition from his peers, Gillam maintained high marks. Gillam relished in twarting his spoiled peers in the naval combat simulations, though he always maintained a facade of order and composure as was expected of an officer. As he progressed through the Academy, Gillam found himself infatuated by the naval organization, it's bureaucracy and its rules. For outside the Academy, one's nobility or lack thereof determined one's lot in life. But here, merit and hard work were all that could be counted. It was here that his respect for the established order was cemented.

At the age of 21, Gillam Belasko surpassed the initial expectations of his instructors and was granted the rank of Lieutenant upon completion of his training. He was assigned as a navigational ensign to the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span>, a heavily armed Gothren class cruiser. His first tours of duty took Lieutenant Belasko on patrols to the Doldrums, where the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> hunted pirates prowling about the asteroid fields and escorting mining vessels. It was on his second deployment where Belasko saw his first taste of combat.

A distress beacon drew the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> to an ore freighter claiming to have detected an unidentified vessel lurking nearby. As the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> rendezvoused, scores of boosterpack-bound pirates scattered from their hiding spots among the asteroids and swarmed the cruiser. The <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span>, wanting in point defense systems, was unable to repel the individual pirates. They landed upon the cruiser's hull and pried their way into the hangar bays. Before the marine contingent could don their vacuum suits for combat, the boarders managed to depressurize much of the ship, killing a substantial number of marines and crew.

All remaining hands were forced to defend the ship. The captain excluded Belasko from the fight however, citing the need for someone to steer the vessel to safety should the captain fall in combat. With Belasko and a skeleton crew left to man the bridge, the remaining hands on the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> took up arms to oust the pirates from their vessel. The fight went poorly for the crew, who were substantially outgunned by the heavily armed boarders. It was apparent to Belasko that the vessel would be lost if something drastic was not done. In a snap decision, Belasko made a 83 second hyperspace jump from the asteroid field that deposited the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> just above the swirling clouds of Artemon, the nearest of the Doldrum's gas giants. As the captain and his crew made a last ditch defense of the bridge bulkhead, Belasko plunged the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> into the tormentous atmosphere of the gas world below. The Lieutenant watched from the bridge screens as his shipmates fell to the pirate onslaught. As shells rattled off the bulkhead behind him, and his captain bled out, Belasko locked the bulkhead and then depressurized the entire vessel save for the bridge. As the cruiser sank deep into the heavy atmosphere of Artemon, a melange of hot, noxious gases inundated the ship. The vacsuits of the pirates, well suited for the void of space, collapsed under the intense pressure and the heat boiled the pirates alive in their suits. Within minutes, all hands outside the cruiser's bridge - be they pirate or crew - had certainly perished. Before the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> sank too deep into the crushing atmosphere, Belasko fought his way back into orbit and made his way to Far Valyria with only 6 of the original 400 crew remaining.

Upon arrival in the Far Valyria, Belasko was ordered to submit a detailed after action report concerning the incident in the asteroids. Immediately after submitting the report, officers of the Imperial Armada arrested Belasko and forced him to appear before a naval tribunal under Admiral Rutherford. For months, investigators combed through the relevant data extracted from the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> semisentience core. Hours of footage from the corridor and bridge feeds were watched during the proceedings; the owner of the ore freighter was brought to the trial for questioning. After nearly a year of evidence presentation and discussion, Admiral Rutherford handed down his decision: Lieutenant Belasko was not guilty of either charge against him. However, the Admiral Rutherford expressed severe dissatisfaction with his conduct. Though he found that Belasko's actions in the asteroids and in the skies of Artemon were ingenious and necessary to ensure that pirates would not seize an imperial vessel as his late captain had commanded, Rutherford concluded that Belasko's actions were not in line with one of core tenets of the Armada's Code of Battle: that the crew fight to the last man to keep the ship. To this end, Admiral Rutherford issued a highly controversial punishment: that Belasko serve as the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> captain under tours of extreme peril.

And peril the new Captain Belasko saw aplenty. Not long after the tribunal, the Arian Jihad broke loose across the imperial dominion. At the helm of the ship he had saved a year before, Belasko led the refitted <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> into battle against the transhumanists. At the skirmish in the Nebula of the Crowns, Belasko wrought bloody carnage against an enemy carrier formation and sparing it's Dratha class sister ship, the <span class=""bb-i"">Aphelion</span>, from a surprise attack by a transhumanist frigate. At the Siege of Korogar, the flash of a nuclear detonation in orbit left Captain Belasko blind. Even so, the captain of the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> worked in tandem with the data gathered by the ship's semisentience and scored two kills against the enemy. As the war came to a close, Captain Belasko had demonstrated once again to all those who had doubted his ability.

All but one, that is.

In the course of the Arian Jihad, Admiral Rutherford, the man that had issued Captain Belasko this trial of penance, had gone missing in action. On patrol deployments, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> stitched across the most remote corners Imperium, searching for Rutherford's flagship and the man that had given Gillam Belasko his opportunity to demonstrate his ability to demonstrate his capacity to serve the Armada with honor. It was Captain Belasko's determination to find the Admiral and demonstrate that the decision to confer the rank of Captain was not made in error, and he would not conclude his quest until the flagship was found and it's admiral reported dead or alive.

<span class=""bb-b"">Augmentics:</span> Neuro-uplink
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Admiral, Duke/Commander of Plentiful Dawn
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> Some names have been given to him, but he doesn't like them or use them. Among those is 'The Ghost of Dawn'.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> Admiral Rutheford has a fair complexion. He stands tall, with a frame leaning more towards thin. His shoulders are sharp but not broad. His facial features are sharp and angular, but not overly wide or big-boned. His cheekbones are high and his nose is of average size, but bent slightly at the center of the bridge. Shallow crow's feet draw outward from the corners of his eyes. His hair is black and cut low, with white hairs at the sides. His eyes are an empty gray. He has some heavy scarring along the right side of his jaw, but nothing monstrous. He stands with all the grace of an officer and noble; never seen out of uniform and always with an upright, stiff posture.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Admiral Rutherford is a man shaped by duty. A no-nonsense, stern man of high esteem, but modest. Though he is a high noble and officer, he is not arrogant, nor has he led himself to believe he is superior based on his nobility. He does, however, demand respect, that his authority be recognized, and his orders followed.

Rutherford understands men and women have limits, both physically and mentally. He does not expect men and women to do the impossible, or what is beyond their ability or responsibility, but he does expect them to do their duty. Rutherford values duty above all and holds great disdain for those who forsake theirs.

He judges people by their merit more than their social status, and is well aware some of the best men come from humble birth, while some of the worst hide behind impressive-sounding titles meant to be cloaks that shield them from responsibility, and are often lent to useful criminals to escape justice and live to do work as free men at the service of corrupt nobles. It goes without saying he has fought strongly for reform.

Rutherford disapproves of the Crown's decision to allow former raiders and the like to serve the Kingdom as auxiliaries, or worse - full-fledged members of His Unapproachable Grace's Navy -, believing them to not only be a stain on the noble image of the Royal Navy, but murderers who have escaped justice. He has attempted, numerous times, to bring them to justice himself, and has barred many from ever entering his native world of Plentiful Dawn, on the threat of execution for their crimes. 

With his professional attitude and stern, sometimes harsh way of command, it is easy to consider Rutherford a bitter, self-righteous man. It is true he commands strictly and holds little tolerance for misconduct, but Rutherford is not without mercy or compassion. He is a caring man to those who do their duty and serve their fellow men, but absolutely ruthless to those who forsake their duty and serve only themselves. Loved by his crew, Rutherford is the kind of man to care for them on an individual basis when time allows, offering them help personally and often using his influence as a noble to ease the pains and concerns of those who serve under him.

He holds in high regard the principles of humanity and chivalry, believing even war must have its limits, or else it becomes barbaric and indistinguishable from the chaos that tore the empire apart all those years ago.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personal History:</span> Admiral Rutherford was born on the frontier moon of Plentiful Dawn in the Horizon system. A once prosperous agricultural world on the Acturian Empire's frontier, it was cut off from the rest of the Empire during the war against the Rival Claimants and was, overtime, transformed into an impregnable fortress-world on the brink of former imperial territory. It was reclaimed about 40 years ago (in the Valyrian Calender) by the Kingdom of Far Valyrius. As such, Rutherford was born and raised in gargantuan underground, military installations linked together by breathtaking tunnel-highways, under what was effectively martial law headed by an Admiralty.

Having been the target of Rival Claimant forces, and later barbarians and petty kingdoms, Plentiful Dawn's once fertile surface was, overtime, transformed into a crater-scarred land of ash and ruin. Constant bombardment forced its citizens to live underground, and only the moon's innumerable anti-orbital-ship railguns - operated out of huge bunkers where only the gun's barrel peered out from underground - kept the numerous invasion-attempts at bay.

Son of the High Admiral, Rutherford was groomed for leadership from an early age. He was expected to one day command an entire moon on what was expected to be an eternal struggle against an onslaught of barbarians and expansionist states looking to plunder the ruins of the Arcturian Empire. 

Several pushes were made to reclaim the surface, as well as other surrounding moons and planets, with some success. Over the centuries, worlds came under control of the Admiralty, only to be lost later, and sometimes reclaimed again not long after. In the later years, however, the Admiralty made the defense of Plentiful Dawn its top priority, leaving other worlds to be picked clean barbarians.

He was nineteen when a fleet of warships from the Kingdom of Far Valyrius entered Plentiful Dawn's orbit in the midst of what had been, at the time, a two-year-long, devastating siege by a unified coalition-fleet of scavenging aliens. Far Valyrius' ships devastated the invading force and broke the siege, later incorporating Plentiful Dawn into what was to become the new Arcturian Empire at the signing of the Concord of Dawn - an agreement that peacefully integrated the moon into the Kingdom of Far Valyrius, and guaranteed certain rights and freedoms -- thus becoming the Protectorate of Plentiful Dawn.

Believing his people owed a debt to the Kingdom of Far Valyrius, Rutherford pledged his full support and service to the Crown, enlisting in the Royal Navy and proving himself a capable commander. He remained on Plentiful Dawn for a time to help coordinate with the capital in assimilating the moon. Later, he helped incorporate its military forces, proving he was a capable leader on and off the battlefield. When the Kingdom called for Plentiful Dawn to pledge its forces on the frontline, it was he who led his countrymen.

Rutherford distinguished himself in numerous skirmishes and full-scale battles that saw him climbing up the ranks of the Royal Navy, whilst also becoming more involved in the Kingdom's politics - though he was never great at political intrigue, having publicly embarrassed himself several times, and openly despised it. 

Having been raised under strict military law, he quickly became known for being a no-nonsense, sometimes harsh commander. He openly criticized some of the Kingdom's more lax policies, particularly those with regards to former raiders and barbarians. He viewed the Kingdom's tendency to pardon raiders and barbarians - many of them murderers and slavers - and even place them into positions of power within the Royal Navy as being absolutely unacceptable. He also exposed corruption where he saw it. This of course earned him a lot opposition, particularly from the corrupt nobility. Later, rumors broke out that he worked for the Office Unspoken, further alienating him from other nobles who worried he could be an agent working to stomp out corruption and dissent on behalf of the Crown.

Though he wasn't an agent of the Office Unspoken initially, he did become one after being officially invited into the ranks (though left not long after). He joined the ranks of Admirals later in his career and became the head Admiral at the Naval Tribunal.

By the time the war against Arius began, he commanded forces as an Admiral, and four years later commanded the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> - a gargantuan warship at least a millennia old. He served admirably for the first four years of the war, taking part in numerous battles and proving himself as capable as even the oldest commanders. 

His luck ran out at the Battle of Terminus. Caught by surprise and quickly enveloped by forces loyal to Arius, his battle-group was quickly decimated and the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> sustained heavy damage, forcing parts of the ship to be sealed off - sometimes with crew still inside - or detached altogether. Rutherford watched as each and everyone of the ships accompanying the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> were destroyed and Arius' ships began to close in.

What followed was a devastating last stand that killed 60% of the crew and nearly immobilized the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span>. Realizing he could not fight back, and unwilling to let Arius capture one of Valyrius' most important vessels - one under his command, no less -, the Admiral ordered a retreat as the enemy ships began to trap the wounded <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span>. Unable to maneuver around ships encircling it, the Adamant rammed through one of the enemy vessels, sustaining near-critical damage and tearing the enemy ship apart, killing men on both sides. Without time to spare, Rutherford ordered a slipspace jump to ""anywhere"" mid-ramming. It warped the Adamant - and the ship it had rammed - into the middle of nowhere, where men on both sides - the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> and the burning-husk of a ship it had dragged with it - continued to fight for another hour before the enemy ship fell apart with what was left of its crew.

The <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> drifted through uncharted space a wounded beast, lost, for what would be six, long years. During this time Rutherford struggled to maintain order and numerous ship-wide riots occurred, driving him to take desperate and harsh measures to save the majority - including the execution of those that threatened the survival of the crew with insubordination, starving out those detained to save rations, and other things he wished he could forget. He was, by necessity, a tyrant. It tested him and he nearly broke, having come close to suicide early on. Duty saved his life that time, and he pushed on. 

The ship's crew grew more and more independent over the course of these six years, developing its own identity. The AI did the same, becoming <span class=""bb-i"">Wanderer</span>. And at the end of the six years, the <span class=""bb-i"">Adamant</span> reappeared, true to its name, at the Battle of the Burning Stars, where it assisted royal forces. The ship fought silently that day though, without orders. Unbeknownst to almost all, Rutherford lied on a pool of blood in his quarters. A crewman discovered him, startled him, and watched as he fired through his jaw. He had decided he would never be able to lead his men back home, and it had effectively broken him. His last order had been a slipspace jump to ""anywhere"", before deciding he would take his life. He was treated for his wounds immediately and his life was saved - barely. When he awoke demanding to know where he was, a doctor answered simply: ""Home.""

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Human
<span class=""bb-b"">Augmentics:</span> Besides the neural uplink with his ship, Harper’s right eye is bionic and looks almost completely natural other than the crystalline blue color of the iris; Harper also has a bionic arm in place of his left arm as well as an uplink to the arm around the base of his neck.
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Captain in the Royal Navy; Second in Command of Special Task Force Rho
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> The Tinman
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> <a href=""http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff9/nacron/Mobile%20Uploads/image_t6_zpsd9be29bb.jpg"">Harper</a> is a mountain of a man, standing at six foot three with a bulky and toned frame to him. His face and body are riddled with scars from years of service in the Royal Navy. His left eye is a golden brown color while his right is a light crystalline blue color, and is surrounded by burned skin. All of his scars and bionics have aged Harper prematurely, making him look older than a man in his mid-thirties.
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Harper is a very brusque man, making most weary to approach him, even his subordinates. The scars and heavy bionics do nothing but increase the weariness of others to approach the mountain of a man. When he does talk to others, it is easy to see he has a very crude sense of humor and a mind built for raids; Harper, while caring about his men’s lives to an extent, is not afraid to risk them to achieve his task in the name of the Royal Navy. Harper is said to be uptight with his men, demanding great amounts of respect; this has been attributed to him being extremely bitter about being stuck as a Captain.

Throughout his service Harper suffered two disfiguring injuries. The first of these injuries cost Harper his right eye barely six years into his service. The ship he was stationed on, The <span class=""bb-i"">Queen’s Hound</span> was heading a charge to break through enemy lines in an attempt to break the blockade they had over Odros. The <span class=""bb-i"">Queen’s Hound</span> took heavy damage as it led the charge, reducing it to little more than a hulk of metal afloat in space. During the battle, Harper was commanding one of the crews in charge of firing the plasma batteries and one of the enemy’s bombers hit the station he was in, causing an explosion to overtake the entire crew, killing most and severely injuring the rest. Harper was rushed to the med bay along with the other survivors. He was told he was the luckiest of the crew and had just escaped with heavy burns across the right side of his face and neck and one less eye. The Royal Navy was victorious that day in regaining Odros, and Harper was promoted to Lieutenant and given medals for “admirable duty”. 

After the time he was given to heal and adjust to his new bionic eye, Harper was put in command of a Carcharadon Destroyer called The <span class=""bb-i"">Lance</span>. Finally being put in command of his own ship, Harper was out to prove himself. He served faithfully in his new position despite his dislike for the Admiral he was serving under; the man was an arrogant noble who never hesitated in lording his title and wealth over all of his subordinates. Harper did his best to ignore this aspect of duty and carried out his orders as best he could. After four years and two more promotions to the rank of Commander, Harper met yet another tragedy when he lost his left arm. The tragedy came during the defense of Adriatus. The enemy attacked out of nowhere, taking out two of the King’s ships before the defense could respond. When it did, though, it responded in tandem. Harper took up his position as a line runner, his ship swooping in and maneuvering through the enemy line and wreaking havoc until he was surrounded and ordered to continue attacking. Harper attempted to pull his ship out of the encirclement of enemy ships, but The <span class=""bb-i"">Lance</span> was attacked from all side at once, sending it to the surface of Adriatus as a flaming chunk of metal and flesh. Harper proved lucky once more when he survived the crash with nothing more than scars across his face and body and without his left arm. The Admiral promoted Harper to the rank of Captain and gave him a new ship as a reward; Harper even got to name this new vessel of his. He christened it The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> and chose to use this new vessel as a long range defense carrier.

Despite the injuries, Harper continued serving faithfully and quickly rose to the rank of Commodore, but it was then that his career was effectively snatched from him. The Admiral he held such disdain for had been drinking on his shore leave as was Harper. The Admiral found Harper and drunkenly began to insult him, throwing up his cowardice at Adriatus in his face, saying he should have stayed in the midst of the enemy, sacrificing his life and the lives of his men for the King and then maybe the explosion of ship would have been useful for taking out more enemies. The Admiral continued to insult Harper, saying that he was a coward just like his father was. Harper had had enough when his father was insulted and threw caution to the wind, striking the man with his bionic arm and dislocated his jaw. After that night, Harper was brought before a council and was demoted to Captain, had the thought of promotion made near impossible for him, and was told he and his ship would be repositioned among the raiders allowed to the join the Royal Navy as raiders; the Admiral got away with little more than a slap on the wrist for poor conduct while in uniform.

Harper has now been a part of Special Task Force Rho for somewhere around three years and has become the second in command of the raider task force.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Semi-Sentience Profile:</span> The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> has imprinted most of its personality from one its former owners, making the ship as cold and calculating if not more so than its current Captain. The two are known to work in fantastic sync during battles, as if the ship can read the Captain’s mind.
<span class=""bb-b"">Escort Ships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Ship Details/History:</span>
- Population: 23,000

- Primary weapons/fleet function: The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> is mainly used to fire on enemy lines from long range, launch the main bulk of the strikecraft in an encounter, and secure escape lines for allies in battles and cut off escape routes for the enemy. The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> has more than the average number of plasma batteries on each broadside because of the additional reactor energy it utilizes from the sacrifice of an extra back breaker cannon to house another hangar bay.

- Marine contingent details: Having focused more on its strikecraft contingent, The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> does not have near the number of Marines as other ships, totaling at around two thousand Marines. The Marines that are aboard The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> are primarily orbital drop troopers.

- Strikecraft contingent details: The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span> is the primary long range craft in Task Force Rho, and so has added an additional hangar bay at the cost of a third back breaker cannon, making it home to: seventy-five Archangel fighter bombers, eighteen Impi assault shuttles, and four cutters.</div>"

High Command had wanted his battlegroup in the Maalik System within the week, Valyrian Standard Time, and the taskforce was ahead of schedule.

The sub-space lateral tide was with them, thankfully, and with the exception of a grav-pool around the Hannor Crescent that had needed careful bypassing, the journey had been free of any major obstacles.

So far, so good.

Morning concluded his calculations, finding the taskforce's speed, course setting, and projected arrival time to his satisfaction. He sent a terse data-blurt through his neuro-uplink to the other ships under his command and their captains, commending their efficiency.

A chime dinged softly in his ear. The strategic briefing in five. 

The Commodore opened his flesh eye. It took a moment for it to adapt to the dim of the bridge, and his augmentic optic whirred and clicked as it adjusted in sympathy with his biological sight.

The <span class=""bb-i"">Lord Ashfallow</span>'s long, arch-ceilinged bridge was busy but quiet. Commodore Morning ran a tight ship, and did not allow noise levels on his bridge to exceed an indecorous level unless there was an emergency. Even in combat command staff were expected control their volumes, like the professionals they were.

War was no place for bloodthirsty braggadocio and showmanship, in the Commodore's opinion. Calm, orderly deliberation followed by decisive action, that was how to fight and win. Righteous fury may make the heart flutter, but it cost lives and more often than not, victory. 

The <span class=""bb-i"">Ashfallow</span>'s Semi-Sentience signaled its agreement with Morning's musings with a pleasurable neuro-pulse. A delightful beast, this ship.

The Commodore had commanded three different vessels over the course of his time in His Grace's navy, and worked as a staff officer on four more. Each ship's Semi-Sentience had acquired a different flavor over the long centuries of their service, each had an almost-personality formed by patchworks of impressions and echoes from the many minds that had entered them. Some ships were blustery and uncooperative, others irritatingly submissive, a few were quirky to the point of insanity...but the <span class=""bb-i"">Lord Ashfallow</span> was a professional. Cool, detached, terse, prompt. Very much like the Commodore himself.

Morning severed his link to the Semi-Sentience, ignoring the usual aching twinge of disconnection, and stood up. He straightened his uniform- the deep royal blue of His Grace's Navy, heavily starched and embroidered with silver tracery- and walked briskly down the bridge towards the briefing station.</div></div>

Ship Name: <span class=""bb-i"">Lord Ashfallow</span>
Ship Type: Demnevanni Class Carrier Cruiser
Semi-Sentience Profile: Thanks to a career mostly relegated to anti-pirate actions and system defense, the <span class=""bb-i"">Ashfallow</span> is a ship in almost pristine condition, and its AI remains largely impersonal and uncorrupted. It has, however, developed a slight tendency for impatience with deviations from Naval protocol, and its great age combined with a relative lack of heavy combat experience has made it both rigid and unimaginative. It is a reliable and efficient Semi-Sentience, but one that relies heavily on its captain for creativity and improvisation, two features not generally associated with the highly competent but conservative Commodore Morning.
Ship Details/History: 
- population 40,000
- primary weapons: the <span class=""bb-i"">Ashfallow</span> is armed with a suite of forward torpedo launchers as well as medium-to-close range solid ordinance and laser weaponry capable of engaging cruiser and capital class ships. Like all Demnevanni Class carriers, the Ashfallow is a carrier designed to hold its own in a close range brawl.
- marine contingent: The Ashfallow has a large contingent of human marines and boarding craft outfitted for offensive actions. Commodore Morning does not tolerate xenos or mercenaries on his ship, and refuses to make use of G'Mok marines.
- strikecraft contingent: The Ashfallow is outfitted with a full compliment of strikecraft designed to provide a large taskforce with a sizeable fighter screen and bomber compliment.

<span class=""bb-b"">Konrad von Ravenstein</span>
Rank: Grand Duke of Lynz, Protector of Far Valyrius, Supreme Commander of the Second Royal Expeditionary Forces
Alias: The Butcher of Vornheln, the Red Duke
Physical Description: A man of slightly below average height, broadly built, heavyset but not fat. Strong facial features, with a thick mustache. The Duke has startlingly bright green eyes. He generally wears a white military tunic bisected by a red sash, and wears a single medal on his chest, the silver sunburst of the <span class=""bb-i"">Order of Alexiana</span>, the highest military decoration in the Kingdom given to army commanders, awarded after his victory at Odros during the Arian Jihad.
Personality: The Grand Duke is a famously quiet man, preferring to give orders through trusted underlings. It is not uncommon for entire strategy briefings to be held in his presence without him saying a single word. His patience and capacity for stillness and inactivity are as legendary as his ruthlessness. He is not a great orator and tends to inspire fear and respect rather than love and devotion in those under his command. He almost never publicly loses his facade of icy, quiet calm. The Grand Duke is known to be a heavy drinker, but is otherwise not much given to luxury or self indulgence, though he is a passionate hunter. Unusually for a man of his upbringing and station, the Duke is quite tolerant of xenos (the old joke in the army is that the Duke <span class=""bb-i"">doesn't</span> care for the lives of <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> soldiers equally) and is known for seeking out the advice of his Gn'Mok Legion commanders with special attention. His relationship with the Navy is mixed- few in the highly conservative naval hierarchy appreciate the Grand Duke's often brutally pragmatic, unorthodox and 'dishonorable' methods of warfare and many senior naval personnel raise an eyebrow at his strained relationship with the Royal House, but his willingness to listen to the advice of his subordinates, his tolerance of failure and support independent initiative in subordinates, and the fact that he is one of the few Valyrian commanders actively feared by astrogothic chieftains has earned him a certain level of respect.

Second Expeditionary Force Command Staff: 

Rear Admiral Gerhardt von Gimzbrundfildgeschutzen: The Grand Duke's primary naval liaison. A short, tubby man of sour complexion and disposition. A talented logistics expert with a personal life marred by a series of homosexual scandals, who owes his current position entirely to the Grand Duke, to whom he is unswervingly loyal.

Count Aldamaar Cezare: The Grand Duke's chief of staff. Handsome and charismatic, Cezare is a famous womanizer and alcoholic. A competent chief of staff, he is one of the few friends the Grand Duke can be said to have, and it is he through whom the Grand Duke does most of his talking. Some joke that Cezare is the mouth and the Grand Duke the mind.

Captain Ulthosour Crakehall: A ponderous, cadaverous officer, Captain Crakehall commands the Grand Duke's flagship, the <span class=""bb-i"">VRS Arrogance</span>. Addicted to his neuro-feedback provided by the ship's AI, Crakehall rarely leaves his Command Throne on the bridge.

Race: Ilythiiric Noble
Augments: Unknown.
Rank: Captain in the Hexarchic Navy, unofficially able to be recruited by other nations not hostile to the Hexarchy.
Aliases: None
Physical Description: Vierinissa stands at six feet tall, and towers over her fellow Ilythiiri, most of whom stand between 5'3"" and 5'5"". Her frame is well-built, but not thick-set, perhaps one might describe as slim but muscular, if that makes any sense. She has snow-white hair that reaches down to her upper back, sometimes tied back into a ponytail, other times allowed to hang loose, depending on her mood, as well as piercing crimson-coloured eyes that almost seem to change vibrancy depending on her emotional state. She also has the characteristic coal-black skin of the Ilythiiri. She has a prominent scar running beneath her left eye that was inflicted by a rapier during a ritual duel in her earlier youth, as well as several old scars across her body from wounds inflicted in her career as a Hexarchic captain. Vierinissa can usually be seen around others in traditional Hexarchic uniform - a black buttoned jacket and black tie, a white buttoned shirt and black trousers with black leather shoes with several medals pinned to the breast pocket of the jacket. Depending on the situation, Vierinissa may also wear a peaked cap with gold embroidery, fitting of her rank as a Captain of the Navy. On her boat, Vierinissa is much more lax with uniform, and is usually seen in a black garment roughly analogous to what humans refer to as a 'tank top', black three-quarter length trousers and simple or no footwear.

Personality:
Vierinissa is a stern, yet tolerant officer. Her command style is somewhat more lax than one would expect of a Hexarchic captain, mostly due to the more community-driven feel of a stealth ship crew. Vierinissa often has to step in and rein in SLT Raeviir's brutal discipline, concerned that it might drop morale amongst the crew. Although Vierinissa is tolerant of failure, she does not suffer fools gladly, and has no qualms about telling people precisely what she thinks of them, including other captains. This may lead to conflict with others, so perhaps it is best to leave the wolfpack to her command. At least, that's what she tells her superiors. Vierinissa is also a very religious woman, firmly believing in the Pantheon and the Pillars of Faith in the Hexarchy, and although she is tolerant of other religions, she dislikes any jab or mockery of her faith. This attitude is fairly common amongst Ilythiiri, who see their deities as watching over them almost at all times.

<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Executive Officer Lieutenant Reylias Demaran - The ever-stalwart first officer of the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>, Reylias Demaran has been Vierinissa's second-in-command for as long as Vierinissa has held the rank of captain. Standing at 5'6"" tall and with a friendly, though tough expression, XO Demaran is a cool-headed and confident officer who is not afraid to make decisions or take command when the captain is unable to, through either injury or indecisiveness. XO Demaran knows the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span> like the back of his hand, and serves as a mentor to new members of the crew. He is a particularly tolerant man, though he is not afraid to speak his mind to his captain or his subordinates. Vierinissa would not trust anyone else to be her first officer.</li><li>Navigation Officer Lieutenant Nabisisstra Qelarn - A family friend of Vierinissa's daughter Sabuit, Nabi Qelarn is the newest officer amongst the crew of the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>, and as a result is the butt of many jokes amongst the officer cadre of the boat. However, her inexperience and naive exterior hides a determined and brave officer who is willing to sacrifice her life for the sake of the crew and the ship. Nabi is physically not much to look at - she stands at 5'4"", with a slim frame and shoulder-length white hair.</li><li>Weapons Officer Lieutenant Raeviir El'anadar - The veteran of conflicts across the Hexarchy, Raeviir is called by the crew ""an evil bitch"" behind her back. Tough and very strict on the crew under her command, Raeviir expects every rating under her command to work at their best at all times, and woe betide anyone who falls foul of Raeviir's attitude and no-nonsense approach. Raeviir is a physically imposing member of the crew, and is also called a ""freak of nature"" by the crew - she is over six feet and eight inches tall, and weighs in the region of 260 lbs. Raeviir, as weapons officer, is in charge of the offensive and defensive systems on the ship, notably the maintenance of the missiles and the integral stealth field, as well as acquiring targeting information when the ship is attacking the enemy.</li><li>Officer of the Watch Lieutenant Sabuit Aleaniryn - Vierinissa's second daughter, Sabuit is considered by most of the crew to be a soft touch. Sabi is in command of the deck watch and is tasked with the detection and tracking of enemy shipping using the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>'s passive and active sensor arrays, and although she seemingly runs a tight system, she is prone to overlooking the odd slip in discipline here and there, and is either poor at or unwilling to punish those responsible. Though her gentle attitude makes her liked amongst the ratings, several officers feel that she is better suited elsewhere in the military, and once she has had to face down accusations of nepotism.</li><li>Chief Engineer Sub-Lieutenant Kyrranwyn My'athar - Vierinissa's closest friend, Chief Engineer My'athar virtually lives in the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>'s engine room and command room. Kyrranwyn is a mechanical genius, able to assist Raeviir in maintaining the weaponry, stealth fields as well as monitoring engine parameters such as cooling and energy signature. Often knee-deep in tools and maintenance equipment, Kyrranwyn can usually be found fixing the odd leak, tweaking the energy couplings and constantly trying to increase output, often with unintended beneficial side effects.</li><li>Forward Torpedo Officer Sub-Lieutenant Aurelia Aleaniryn - The person on whose shoulders lies the ultimate responsibility for attacking the enemy, SLT Aurelia is Vierinissa's first-born daughter and is the most important person on the ship outside of the XO and the captain. Aurelia knows of her responsibilities and runs a highly-efficient system in the forward torpedo room, able to load and fire all 90 missiles at a very high rate of fire, operating the auto-loading mechanisms, and the ratings under her command know they must adhere to her every order, lest they incur her wrath, and they must do it quickly.

Ship Details/History:
The <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>. One of the most famous stealth ships in the Navy, its name only mentioned in hushed whispers by excited ratings posted to the ship, and feared by any enemy vessel it attacks. The <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span> is the first and the finest ship, as befits the lead ship of the class.

Ship Details/History:
Commanded by Captain Garan Aleaniryn, Vierinissa's husband, the <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span> is the second commissioned <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>-class ship and arguably the most experienced. The <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span> has been present in every single major battle that the Hexarchic Navy has fought since its commissioning some ten years ago, and the <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span>'s crew are veterans of combat, more so than the crew of the <span class=""bb-i"">Argonaut</span>. The <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span>, unfortunately, has also had a tendency to suffer from missile malfunctions, with missiles failing to launch, missiles failing to detonate or detonating early, once causing the bow of the ship severe damage when a missile detonated mere seconds after leaving the tube. Despite this, the <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span> is also one of the most successful raiders in the Navy, with over 50 confirmed enemy ships destroyed. The <span class=""bb-i"">Amethyst</span> is a tough ship, with a tough crew.

On top of the usual pirate groups, it was a place of mercenaries, a place where Assassins could be found and bought easily, a place where a smuggler would offer their ship and their services to the highest bidder. The Shoals are a small part of the galaxy where most of the planets in the system are so heavily urbanized that surplus populations have to live in orbiting space stations, giant floating cities in space where the laws are as loose as the women, pirates controlled these space stations and planets with an iron fist, acting more like crime families than pirates. Often times smuggling things such as slaves,narcotics,and weapons to anyone who would pay for them, extorting businesses and trade conglomerates either by threats of force or taking hostages, and of course stealing ships to add to their groups, these were common things among the pirate way of life in the Shoals.

One man dared to change that, he pulled himself from the gutter of one of these planets and worked his way up until he was the leader of a pirate group known as the Lords of Ruin. This man was Kain Havarr, Kain was a highly intelligent man who relied on daring he dared to question why the other groups weren't doing more, he saw that combined they would be a nigh unstoppable and that's what he did. He gathered his men and turned on a few pirate groups taking them over and replacing them with his own leaders, other pirate groups joined willingly and so thus their leaders weren't replaced. His dream was a group of pirates that could rival the techno-barbarians in way of technology, and the Valyrians in ways of strength.

Eventually Kain had a group of pirates ready to follow him into the gates of hell comprised of over six different human and non human pirate groups, an empire ready to take over the rest of the Shoals and conquer the rest of the galaxy. But Kain at this time set his eyes on conquering someone else, his eyes fell on the wife of another pirate captain and the two began a affair in secret. Every moment he had alone was spent with the woman, eventually the result of said affair was Kain's first son Logan, born in the med-bay of Kain's flagship.

As soon as the boy was old enough Kain had the boy taught things he would need, training with weapons and hand to hand combat, the use of ships and how to properly command them, tactics, and basic politics so eventually the boy could take over as Kain's heir to the empire that would span the stars. As years went on Kain spent more time with Logan's mother and sired 4 more childeren from her, and six more from various other women bringing Logan's family up to Eleven. And as they grew older all of them were ready to fight for their father even if it meant their deaths.

At age 14 Logan was put in charge of his first ship a frigate, Logan hated it he craved speed and adrenaline. He spoke to his father about this and his father introduced him to a old man named Red, a fighter ace and small craft pilot who was considered the best fighter pilot in the entire Shoals system. Red agreed to teach the boy and so they started with heavier small craft Logan first learned to fly bombers and shuttle craft which bored him to tears but helped prepare him for what he really wanted to fly. The starfighter. The speed, the power, all in one little craft gave Logan the adventure and rush he was looking for and he quickly mastered the craft in time for his first battle against a group of pirates who resisted Kain's rule. It was at this battle that Logan proved his skills to the group and most of all his father, he gained Ace status in his first battle shooting down seven enemy star fighters and destroying an enemy cruiser. This earned him the nickname ""Child Warrior"" among the other pilots and the name stuck for sometime.

Years went by and eventually Kain managed to reunite the Shoals under his banner. The way he did it and the way he treated the population made Kain a hero to most of the system, but he was more-so a hero to his children who revered him like he was a god. And just like Logan as they grew older they were given ships of their own to command while the younger ones stayed with Kain on his flagship. With his children at his side and a massive systems worth of pirates at his back Kain set his sights on the Valyrians. He waited for the perfect oppertunity and it came in the form of the  Arcturian Jihad taking advantage of this Kain and his fleet set out and took both sides by surprise attacking planets with a minimal fleet presence and plundering their resources and taking slaves.

Neither side were prepared for the Dolorians, so they won many victories even though they were small victories and were barely worth noticing to both of the bigger groups, during one raid on the Arcturian's Logan lost one of his siblings their ship being destroyed and this drove Kain into grief and fury, he turned his fleet on the Arcturians and began to attack just them taking out small fleets and planets which in many ways managed to help the Valyrians turn the war around with the Arcturians unable to call on these small fleets for reinforcements. 

As the war calmed and stuck with a battered fleet ready to go home, Kain was ready to go home so as they were about to turn and head home the Valyrians showed up and turned their attention on the pirates who had been plundering them for so long, and to top it all off the husband of Logan's mother betrayed the group and started attacking the Lords of Ruin and their ships. With his betrayal the battle of Novgorod begun, Novgorod was a worthless hunk of frozen rock in the furthest reaches of Valyrian space, a tundra planet with a population of 15,000 at it's peak, and now it was experiencing a battle in it's orbit. Logan and a fighter wing placed in his command tried their hardest to turn the tides but eventually they were worn down until it was just Logan, who was being chased by a group of fighters towards the surface of Novgorod he twisted and turned trying to escape them but eventually the Valyrian fighters took him down and he crash landed on the surface.

It was here where all he could do for the battle was watch, watch as his brothers and sisters went down around their father, watch as some of the pirate ships fled the battle returning back to the shoals, watch as his father stood his ground and ultimately watch the Flagship turn into a fireball. Eventually as the battle of Novgorod wore down to a close the Valyrian's sent down marines to hunt down any pirates who had landed on the planet to fleet their justice, there they found Logan and took him prisoner.

Back in the Shoals Kain became a legend and hero to many, others saw him as the devil who ruined years of work. But it was due to Kain's power over the Shoals that caused many within the Valyrian chain of command to debate his sentence, this led to public discussions on the net and eventually it was decided that having a son of Kain help them if they ever decided to lay claim to the Shoals would be beneficial to them. So they would fake Logan's execution so he could fade away from the public's mind who at this point were calling him ""the Prince of Pirates"" They took the traitor and every pirate under his command and executed them first, then they let Logan rot in prison while there they assessed if he would be a threat to them or not, and if he could be loyal to the monarchy. They also rehearsed how he would act on his execution and with all of that information they made Logan wait.

It wasn't until shortly after his 25th birthday that they withdrew him from prison for a public ""execution"" they gave the firing squad blanks and all he had to do was fall over when they fired and remain still, so that's exactly what he did they fired and he fell over faking his death, after his death they changed his last name and turned his hair a light blonde so he wouldn't be as easily recognized, there they tested his loyalty further and when he proved himself to be absolutely loyal they transferred him into the Battlegroup Eplison where only the Commodore and the captain of the vessel he's stationed on know his true identity, it was here where the Valyrians gave him a new starfighter and watched him just in case he did turn on them they would be ready to kill him. Knowing this and wanting to stay alive Logan serves dutifully as much as it pains him to do it.</div></div>

Before he could ask why they would be stalling them the face of his AI appeared in the HUD of his helmet, ""It appears you are accelerating incredibly quickly, if you keep up this pace you will be out of the range of the fleet i suggest you slow down so you can have support."" She said, Logan just scoffed. ""We'll be fine we got the torpedoes to back us up.""
""The odds of survival are thirty-two point th-""
""Shut up, blasted machine."" Logan chuckled and applied more thrust to his afterburners managing to catch up with one of the pirate cruisers who opened up on him as soon as they sighted his fighter-bomber, but with great skill he managed to weave through the bulk of the anti-fighter craft fire and drop his ordinance which connected with the bridge knocking out the entire command bridge. His Ai showed him a feed from the rear cameras of his hit on his helmet HUD. The blast had impacted the bridge and destroyed the view port sucking a few who weren't buckled down properly out into the void of space, the AI showed him the steel shutters slamming into place before cutting the feed. ""I suggest you return back to the fleet now."" The Ai said, her tone of voice having bits of anger and concern directed at her pilot. ""Alright, alright."" Logan said and turned the craft around.

As Logan flew over the the damaged cruiser they opened up once again heavily damaging one of his wings. ""Left wing integrity at 34 percent."" His AI said, but Logan ignored her instead focusing on flying his craft straight. As he kept going his craft kept shaking and bucking as the right wing tried to pick up the slack of the left one but failed in doing so, the landing was going to be rough so Logan got on the radio with the hangar. ""Ladies and gentlemen i am coming in hot, might want to clear me a little bit of space just in case."" A reply came over the radio. ""Roger that Blackbird, we got yah."" Was all it said. Logan adjusted his speed and his pitch so he could land better as he entered the hangar but all the shaking threw him off and his landing sent him skidding across the hangar, fighting with the controls Logan managed to regain control of his craft just short of hitting the far wall. ""Very well done Logan."" His Ai said, and sent a image of a smiling face to that of his HUD. ""Thanks."" Was all he said as he lifted the canopy and exited the craft.</div></div>

Ship Name:The Archangel Fighter-Bomber 
Ship Type:Fighter-Bomber   
Semi-Sentience Profile:The Ship has an AI that helps with things like an extra set of hands on the controls or taking over the rear cannons when it's being chased. Logan's AI is simply known as the silver lady, due to her taking the appearance of a pale skinned woman with Silver Hair and clothing. She does not act like most of the larger ship AI instead being confined to the systems of the fighter and Logan's helmet hud. As for behavior, she cares for Logan which is an odd behavior for an AI which has caused some to question if she is defective or not, but she also gives the usual advice, tactical data, and all around pushiness of most AI who know what they are talking about.   
Escort Ships:N/a  
Ship Details/History: - The Archangel Fighter-Bomber is the ultimate pinnacle of Valyrian engineering, it's a durable craft that is capable of taking hits and dealing them as well, the fuselage is in the belly of the beast and reinforced heavily so it won't endanger the pilot. It's a heavily armored fighter all around which sacrifices some of it's speed but it's still an agile attack craft.

It is equipped with two twin cannon systems one is under the nose of the craft, the other one is in the rear underneath the pilots canopy that is either controlled by a co-pilot in the older versions or the fighters AI in the newer versions. The cannons fire heavy shredder rounds that contain miniature flechettes that act like flak rounds to fighter craft shredding wings and equipment with precision.

The Archangel is also fit with a missile rack under it's wings. It can either fit a rack of 8 scorpion anti-fighter missiles under each wing, that are capable of laser guidance or lock on capabilities, it can also fit 4 torpedoes under each wing that are capable of dealing with larger craft and causing substantial damage to the hull, it can fit 3 ""Mole"" torpedoes that dig through ship hulls and detonate either upon pilot/AI command or detonate when it chews through an significant amount of hull, or in the case of last resort the archangel can be fitted with two low yield tactical warheads for that extra bang, but it's only used as a last resort because most of the time the attack craft can't escape the emp yield of the warhead in time.</div>"

Particularly within the command strucutres of the royal navy. 
-3,484 he graduates from the academy and becomes a junior lieutenant within the royal military.

Ship Name: Centaur
Ship Type: Minatour Class patrol frigate, HSR 2 strategic classing. 
Semi-Sentience Profile: 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">As a whole prone to swings in it's mood that keep it's crew and captain on their toes. The ship seems to have a range of emotions that most reasonable people might put down to simple age and the slowness of thousand eyar old programming and circuitry. and needs to be either palcated and coaxed into action as it often does when the ship is put underway after docking for extended periods of time. As if it had grown comfortable in it's resting state and like a man groaning against the world as he pushed himself out of bed, the ship has a tendancy to rumble and the engines always take just a little longer than they should too in order to warm up. 

It perhaps also does not move at the speed in which it did in it's youth. It is not a significant enough drop to worry or take action and risk the ire of the machine's venurable spirit but the crew of the Centaur are almost always trying to palcate the ship before giving it a command. As if asking it before the push of every button and control too continue it's long and glorious service for another day. And like a long retired veteran being pleaded and pushed back to the front lines he does so with ample grumbling and muttering under his breath but also out of a sense of both duty and the knowledge that this is what it's true purpose in life really is. 

Despite this when the situation is truly dire and it hears both the pleas of it's captain and the whispers of the neophytes and custodes to treat every inch of it with loving care and utmost respect it is capable of reaching speeds truly reminsicent of it's namesake 'Centaur' and moving with the grace and speed of it's youth. And smahing into the enemy line with the force of a charging war steed.

 It always seems to know exactly when it needs to perform the best. this is not to say it is perfect as any priest working aboard the vessel can tell you that the mood fo the vessel's spirit seems to revel a fair bit in combat. Drawing lightly into reserve power when it shouldn;t be to increase the power of it's weapons. Crewman have long reported that the shields will often drop 1-3% on their own even when no shots have been landed against them. The engines get a little warmer and the lights just that much dimmer. As if it is unleashing some thousand year old fury upon it's foe and drawing that strength from every source it can. Like embers of a low almost extinguished fire being stroked and prodded until it resembles a roaring inferno.</div></div>

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">- Approx 560 meters from the tip of the bow to the tail of the engines and almost as wide again across at 250+ meters from one edge of the wing to the other, with the neck at a mere 85m and the bow at 100m. It is a ship designed for self sufficiency and speed. It can still provide the same support as other vessels in it;s class are expected to do for larger ships. But the centaur was the old empires answer to the need for a fast response vessel. 

The Inside of the vessel pays homage to the Machine cult. Particularly to the Custodes Spiritus Ferrum who have deep and strong roots within Raan and it's moons. As well as the Val'Holryn family. Indeed all of the crew on board the Centaur are faithful and are regular members of this facet of the machine cult. One has to be simply to be able to work aboard. There are maybe twenty 'additional passengers' onboard the Centaur. Each of these are Custodes or Custodians of the Spirit of Steel. The great Sentience that exists within the very essence of the ship and has existed for at least a thousand years. They venerate it and all like it. Considering them to be the pinnacle of human invention and above all alive. Persons just like any other and ones to be respected above all else. For it is through their eternal vigilance and will they continue in their duties and the beacon of order and civilization that is this kingdom exists because of their prowess. The Custodes are not official crew members but are given near free reign in the ship even during high alert. For it is their muttered words that are believed to ease the sooth the tired vessel. Hell they even can be found massaging bundles of wires by hand. Speaking directly to no one and seeming to live their entire lives appeasing this great machine. Urging it to push forward in times of duress even as literal pieces of the great machine are falling and burning around them. And the crew swear that it is in part because of the custodies that the ships runs half as well as it does. And compared even to other ships it's age it operates with a superb smoothness. yes there are quirks but they are just that quirks. They are not problems with the engine or with the computers simply a tired Ai that wants to coast through a nebula for a little longer so it slows itself down. 

Nearly all of the crew have at least some form of cybernetic augments to show their piety and devotion. Most crew have their right hand removed and replaced by and augment either before or during their time aboard the Centaur. Treating it almost as a rite of passing, sign of devotion and a badge of pride to reflect their admiration for the ship they serve aboard all rolled into one display. With the iron fist being a common symbol across many facets of the machine cults of the Kingdom as a sign of the strength and increased power of steel and flesh when combined. Particularly the marines are keen on cybernetic and genetic augmentation to improve their performance. And while official naval rules prohibit this blatant amputation and replacement of perfectly healthy flesh with augments when the need isn't there. The captain and officers always look the other way and never peer too closely into the medical bay when these operations are supposedly taking place.  

Symbolism of the cult can be seen everywhere and crewmen are lectured constantly by the custodes on how to properly entreat and speak to the vessel before acting. To offer apology for inconvenience when asking to push or exert itself and offer homage in the form of maintenance and repair. As a result of the piety of nearly 300 people the ship is possibly the most clean in the entire kingdom. Scrubbed regularly from head to toe and cared for like a beloved elder who they hope will impart it's wisdom from countless experiences upon them. 

HSR-1's could scout and generally move quicker than their larger cousins but the Minatours were made to be a decent mixture between speed and being able to deploy and respond quickly to threats of incursion and raids. And having enough size and firepower to at the very least keep the agressors in question busy long enough for their larger HSR-2's and 3's to arrive. They truly came out on their own alone or in small battlegroups of three. Able to respond quickly to the defence of the empire with just enough force and power to get the job done without sacrificing their speed. The balance between those two elements is a fine line but it handles itself well and before the fall of the old empire and the vessels of it's design were instrimental in the protection and deterrance of more than one agressor who thought themselves to test the defences of the Empire. This combonation also had the advantage of being able to put the on the offensive in interesting ways. Not reliant on an HSR-3 to be completely effective packs of them were able to be sent on raids as well as defend against them. To drop in unannounced, destroy space stations, supply depots, production centers and even cities and jump back out again before the victims had a chance to receive their reinforcements. 

They also saw use in flanking and harassment tactics in larger battles as they could keep pace with some HSR-1's and provide some needed bulk to it's little brothers.

The ship itself has it's drawbacks. For one it's speed and agility make it barely large enough to qualify as a HSR-2 vessel when measured by length and girth. It relies more on the thickness and high durability of it's hull than it's shields which are often one of the first things drained if power is needed for weapons or engines. But it does sport quite a substantial hull thickness for a vessel it's size to try and compensate for this fact. 

The three massive engines at the back are what lends it it's speed. These engines take up a great amount of space within the ass end of the ship and take massive no less than four Nuclear Fusion reactors to keep powered and alive as well as feed the rest of the ship who's entire existence seems based of Mass power consumption. Only three are needed to power the vessel at optimum speed. With the fourth being necessary for maintenance and rotation Powering them at full capacity gives it a nearly unparallelled speed but requires much power to fuel and systems often have to be diverted (most commonely from sheilds) to supply said power. Though even at reduced capacity the engines are more than capable of keeping pace with most vessels. Of course having So many such reactors in such a small vessel tends to be a bit of a hazard especially with the personality of the vessel in question. 

For weapons it has a good assortment as expected in a HSR-2 class vessel. Five heavy laser batteries provide the main force to sting larger enemies into at least paying attention to it. A further ten light-medium batteries along with a dozens of crewed Point defences turrets at various locations around the ship have spoken doom to countless smaller vessels and even other HSR-2's that were simply overwhelmed by the sheer storm of laser fire and projectiles raining down on them. The hardpoints are only really useful however if the enemy is really close to the Centaur. When they are trying to attach themselves for a boarding action. Primarily the hardpoints are used for anti flak measured to try and shoot down incoming missles and enemy Fighters trying to sting the larger vessel to death.

The vessel has a total enlisted crew of over 1200 on top of an extra 200 pilots responsible for the Fighter and assault craft. 300 Maintenance personel for said vessels. 100 naval officers, over 800 marines for boarding/anti-boarding and landing measures and shipboard security. as well as one hundred of the Machine cult 'custodians'. 

 Because the smaller nature of the vessel also extends to the size of it's corridors and average rooms. Most weapons carried by the marines on board reflect this. A particular emphasis on PDW's with collapsible and/or detachable stocks and other additions. Semi and fully automatic pistols for officers and high ranking NCO's. Anything rifle sized would find the tight corridors and sharp turns clumsy and inhibiting while a small but fully automatic weapon could reek havoc on the enemy in such conditions. Basic full body Flak armour for the infantry as well as Wrist mounted Blades to again take advantage of the cramped sorroundings. Combat blades are issued to each marine and crewman for personal defence in case of boarding the marines prefer to use their Knuckle Blades when possible. 

Finally the Ship possess two wings of Gladius 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""></div></div>
 class star/atmospheric fighters at sixty ships a wing. These are mostly to defend against enemy fighters but can also be effective against smaller HSR-1 vessels. Against larger ones such a small compliment is really only useful as a bullet screen and a very temporary one at best. There are also ten Valkyrie class Assault craft which are used primarily by the marines for landings and boarding actions. Each can carry A platoons worth of marines with up to ten flight crew needed to operate both it's turrets anti personel turrets and to pilot it. They can also carry light cargo for delivering or retrieving payloads. 

Several Dozen 'Hercules' class shuttle craft do the day to day hauling and restocking of goods aboard and off the ship. As well as ferry officers crew and cargo between vessels, space stations, planets, etc. They are also used by the crew to complete certain repairs on the outer hull of the ship when needed. These are armoured heavily but possess no defense mechanisms of any kind and are only used to work duties. They do posses towing/anchoring cables, sealed compartment chambers even basic robotic limbs that can grasp, lift and most importantly hold heavy things in place while suited crewman work.

Race: Human
Augmentics: Advanced neuro-link, datajacks along spine, full-sensory VR interface, vitae-rejoo treatments.
Rank: Rear Admiral
Alias: “Master of the Bazaar”
Physical Description:
Aden Wander, from all outward appearances, appears to be a young human man barely at the age of 21 with blonde hair that is always ragged-looking no matter how much grooming is invested and sharp blue eyes. What isn’t immediately evident at first glance is that Wander is a recipient of rejuve treatments, the fact he is really twice his age hidden under a face that is uncannily smooth and unblemished, and a body more sculpted than born of exertion.

Personality: Hedonistic, womanizing, cheerful, and frequently bored. Aden avidly pursues whatever form of pleasure and excitement he finds suits his fancy at the moment, before discarding it and seeking new amusements. Yet while he considers the job of logistics to be one of his games, its one he is never bored of and is solidly good at it. A logistical logjam is not a disaster to him, its a challenge to rise to and defeat by any means possible. Solidly thinks that actual frontline warfare is someone else’s problem, and lets his subordinates take charge whenever combat comes to him, although he doesn’t panic under fire either.

Personal History:
House Wander is a middling noble house charged with being custodians for the four moons orbiting a gas giant at the Vos system turned over to being pleasure world resorts and home to significant elements of the royal bureaucracy, as well as holding high-level positions in the bureaucracy at Throne. While this grants the House considerable “soft power” among the aristocracy, they have historically been unambitious and infallibly loyal, barring the degrees of recreational hedonism shared throughout the family line. This in turn has made the power and position of House Wander an unusual constant in the tumult of aristocratic politics. Houses may rise and fall with the fortunes of trade and war, but House Wander is already there to keep the bureaucracy and kingdom chugging along regardless of kings or lords.

For those of the House who join the military, as many do given the rather prolific breeding of heirs and grandchildren, the majority end up in the kingdom’s logistics and rear-echelon units both out of connections (The current head of the Bureau of Logistics is Augustus Wander, along with several department heads also being Wanders or branch-family relations) and because their abilities are better suited for the tasks of maintaining supply lines, bases of communication, and supporting the fleet. Such was the case for Aden Wander, who while lacking in aggression and personal martial ability had a mind for figures and numbers. Quickly rising in the ranks of the rear-echelon units out of innovative thinking in organization and ensuring reliability of tenuous supply lines even at the heights of the Arius Crusade. For his continuous reliability Aden was assigned to the Crucible and command of one of Valyrius’ precious Artificer-class Strategic Fleet Auxiliaries after the death of its previous master and some clever maneuvering by his House to cement their control over a second of the grand industrial ships.



IC Sample: WIP

Ship Name: Crucible
Ship Nickname: “The Bazaar”
Ship Type: HSR4 Artificer-class Strategic Fleet Auxiliary Ship
Semi-Sentience Profile: A cold and robotic logistics AI governs the Crucible’s factories and repair yards. No emotion, no empathy, only a relentless pursuit of completion of quotas and objectives. Despite its near-uselessness as a combat adviser, with only rote combat plans tending to result in extremely high casualties, the Crucible’s S-AI is a master at coordinating interstellar logistics of an entire fleet given enough data, ships, and time. Recently it seems to be developing a sense of sarcasm.

Escort Ships:

Valiant Servant, Gravitas Express, Bishop of Plenty (Grace-class HSR 2.5 Auxiliary Tender)
The Grace-class auxiliary tender line is a mass-produced multipurpose fleet support ship 1.5 km long, with spacious ventral cargo bays that can be used to haul enough supplies for a battle squadron one journey, return home with a field hospital full of wounded the next, and return to the front carrying fighters as a improvised support carrier or shuttles full of engineers for damage control assistance. While lacking in hull strength or direct-fire weapons besides point-defenses, these ships form a critical logistical backbone of the fleet inbetween or even during battles. Valiant Servant, Gravitas Express, and Bishop of Plenty are directly attached to the Crucible as part of the Just-In-Time Resupply Doctrine, commanded by captains Maxwell Raynar, Collet Minako, and Andrei Tyrosian respectively.

R-96, Fury (Rook-class HSR 2 Escort Gunboat Frigates)
The Rook is a heavy defense frigate, designed for planetary or slow escort roles that don’t require much mobility. What it lacks in acceleration and maneuvering power is made up with heavy armor and multiple laser batteries that can be dialed up or down as needed to fight strike craft or cruisers. The service history of the Rook-class as a whole is characterized by ruggedness under fire, all guns blazing up until the end of the battle or their reactor is destroyed. Two veteran Rooks are assigned to protect the Crucible at all times, R-96 under Kapitan Adolfine Strasse, a hardened veteran of the martial Strasse family, and Fury led by Captain Claus Wander, Rear Admiral Wander’s younger brother.


Ship Details/History:
Just as rare and strategically important as the battlecruisers and battleships of the Royal Navy are the precious few Fleet Auxiliaries capable of maintaining them. Each of them worth entire fleets of lesser freighters, tenders, and transports that would otherwise be required to maintain the starships of the Valyarian Kingdom in its far-distant campaigns. More than once during the Dark Ages, crusades and wars have been launched to recover even the broken hulks of these logistical juggernauts, and for the secrets they retain.

The Crucible is one of five Artificer Class Strategic Fleet Auxiliaries of the Kingdom, a mobile four-winged fleet starbase six kilometers long from end to end. Combining the assets of a starbase to an ancient FTL drive to enable it to follow fleets where they need support.

These mobile fleet bases have been the linchpin of several campaigns in the past, including the Arian Jihad where the presence of an Artificer at hand was often the most pivotal factor in whether a battlegroup was successful in taking and holding a world against the enemy. The logistical superiority they provided and the decisive capture of Arius’ only Artificer played a major role in the warlord’s eventual demise, said to have shortened the war by three years according to fleet analysts.

Yet for all its strategic importance, the Crucible itself had not earned fame nor glory unto itself in the war, given its rear-lines role and irreplaceable nature. This in turn resulted in the Crucible being a handy dumping ground for well-connected noble’s heirs to valuable to die, second-rate conscripts, unambitious officers, black marketeers, and third and fourth sons of little remarkable ability. Under the command of Rear Admiral Aden Wander during the war, this motley crew was turned into one of the finest engineering forces of the kingdom, as well as also its most decadent. Rather than curb the growing excesses of his crew, Aden instead codified, regulated, and set up an entire sub-section of the Crucible towards the growing black market to turn it into a open fleet bazaar. Adding being site of R&amp;R to the logistic ship’s growing resume as Bazaar grew into promenades and red light districts and luxury noble clubs, and the Crucible gradually became a mobile one-stop station for a fleet in need of all the facilities of home close to the front.

With the new campaign declared despite the previous war only just coming to a conclusion, the importance of the Crucible and its fellow Artificers would only grow further. 

Especially as the Crucible has been designate the Royal Flagship of the King in remote of Throne.


- population: 125,000 crew, variable aprox-200,000 assorted civilians, logistics and administration staff, industrial workers.
- primary weapons: 
The Crucible is not a frontline warship, but an Artificer is still a HSR4 class vessel. Albeit better classed as a mobile starbase than a dreadnought of the wall. What it lacks in mobility, it possesses heavy plasma beam cannons, torpedo tubes, and gun batteries.

-fleet function: Task Force Logistics ship. The Crucible serves as a mobile repair yard, a factory for munitions manufacturing, a hub of logistics administration and coordination, and rest stop for tired crews with onboard “creature comforts districts” for an entire task force.

Major attractions of the Crucible’s Recreation Decks: WIP, coming soon.

Major Officers and Notable Personnel
“The Tac Witch” Chief Tactical Officer, Commander Melanie Hawthorne: Melanie is a woman of paradoxes. Outwardly an elegant and very full-figured angel incarnate, she is in charge of the Crucible’s systems and coordinating its defenses. A job she takes to with almost disturbing gusto, rejoicing in the deaths of the enemy at the hands of her weapons in the most creative ways possible, which was why she was eventually removed from the front. While her behavior can be solidly classified as sadism, Wander reigns in and redirects her excesses and she is a remarkable gunner regardless of her “hobbies” belowdecks or in her quarters.

“The Witch’s Pet” Lieutenant Commander Daren Conway: Subordinate officer to Commander Hawthorne, serving as the Crucible’s E-War and battlespace management officer and primary link to the ship’s AI. A not-so-closet masochist, and frequently the recipient of his superior officer’s “affections”. Regardless of their off-duty activities, Daren and Melanie are a very well synchronized duo who make surprisingly good use out of the Crucible’s armament for an auxiliary.

“The Fox” Chief Administrator Otsune Wakahisa: The head of the attached royal bureaucrat logistics administration division is a seemingly young woman with fox ears and tail. Disguising the fact she is pushing 70 years of age with heavy-duty rejuve treatments and has earned the right to dress and act the way she does because of her extended service and high ranking and pull in the Imperial bureaucracy to ensure supplies run smoothly and all the spoils of war properly tallied. Not-so-unofficially one of Aden Wander’s mistresses, although its more of a recurring workplace fling among similar ranking persons than a serious relationship or act of patronage from either of them.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Human

<span class=""bb-b"">Augmentics:</span> Janos is famous among the fleets for his cybernetic augmentations, going far beyond what is required of most officers. He has the usual implants for communicating with the ship's semi-sentience, but in the battle against the barbarian-emperor, he barely survived the destruction of his ship- and now, it's said, he lives only because of his augmentations; more man than machine, they say. Liver, heart, intestines, even the brain- all his major organs are now at least partly synthetic.

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> Vice-admiral

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> Grohander, the ""Metal Butcher""

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> The Count is a terrifying man in appearance. He has had countless augmentations, and it shows: Both legs and an arm are prosthetic, as well as an eye, and a quarter of his face. He has no hair, and what little of his face that isn't synthetic is scarred from burns. He is also gaunt and bony, as all the ""additions"" to his body have been traumatic to his metabolism.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> The Vice-Admiral is a grim man, known to be without humor, kindness, or mercy. His experience with aliens in his youth, defending his dying homeworld against the hordes of aliens that sought to conquer it, have left him deeply xenophobic, and he now obsesses with placing humans above all other species. Indeed, he is not as much loyal to the king as he is loyal to humanity, as he sees the royalty of Valyrius as the only hope against the alien threat.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personal History:</span> Janos Korwitz was born in the year 3454 to the admirals Erra and Hornef Korwitz, the latest of an illustrious line dating back to the Arcturian Empire, on the imperial fortress-world of Plentiful Dawn. It was a planet in ruins, with the remaining defenders constantly struggling to hold off those raiders who sought to finish it off. He was drafted like all other children into the military, though due to his noble upbringing, he set aside to become an officer. 

At the age of twenty, after serving some time as the second to another captain, his parents both died in the Battle of the Gates, when what remained of the imperial fleets were betrayed by the mercenaries they had hired during a battle against a pirate coalition, putting the remainders in rout. Due to the ship's longstanding tradition, this made him the new captain of the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>, but he was in no position to take control of it, as the situation grew worse and worse. The raiders set a siege around Plentiful Dawn, which would last for two years. 

Janos spent those years the same as the rest of his kin, fighting desperately to remain alive. Food, ammunition and above all hope were becoming scarcer by the day. Much of the leadership had died at the Gates, and those who remained had scattered with the rest of the fleet. Finally, after the two, grueling years of the siege, the Valyrian fleet arrived, with the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> and the remnants of the fleet in tow, and smashed the pirates. Plentiful Dawn was annexed into the kingdom, and Janos drafted into the royal navy as the new captain of the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>. 

The next decades he spent in service to the King, serving with distinction, earning him the rank of Commodore. He fought against slavers, xenos, and, eventually, the fanatics of Arius. The last were a brutal enemy, one which threatened the very existence of the Kingdom. Battle after battle was fought, until finally came the decisive clash, in the Battle of Archangel.

It was a close fought battle, as the mad emperor Arius outnumbered the royal forces three to one. His were conscript forces, raised from the worlds under his dominion, and so they fought with little vigor, yet the battle could still have turned either way. The emperor himself fought in a behemoth of a vessel, the much-feared <span class=""bb-i"">Hurrengask</span>, a ship named after his homeworld on which he had poured the resources of his empire into building. It became clear to the admiralty that if they could destroy it, the rest of his forces would rout, and so they focused their fire on it. It's defenses were indomitable, however, and for a time the battle seemed lost. Janos scrambled the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>'s marines and sent them to board the <span class=""bb-i"">Hurrengask</span> en masse. 

The result was a massacre; Sixty-two percent of the force died in the first ten minutes of boarding. Nevertheless, enough damage was done to the ship from the inside to weaken its shields, and the combined firepower of the royal navy tore it apart, killing Arius along with the surviving marines in the process. For his actions in the battle, Count Korwitz was promoted to Vice-Admiral.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Ragnarok"" type=""button"">The Ragnarok [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Ship Name:</span> Ragnarok

<span class=""bb-b"">Ship Type:</span> The <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> is a Demnevanni HSR3, though perhaps in name only, as its extensive modifications over the centuries have put it in a class of its own. Like other Demnevannis, it is both bulky and unwieldy. In addition, its weapons are not made for destroying spacecraft, sacrificing the raw power of other capital ships' batteries for the precision required for a shell to destroy an underground bunker. 

It has also been outfitted with seven extra fission reactors, which by themselves produce enough energy to power a large city. This adds an enormous strength to the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>'s shields that, when added to the many layers of reinforced hull, make it rather difficult to damage. 

Finally, the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> has about a quarter the amount of fighters carried by other Demnevannis, having instead hundreds of Elephants, transport shuttles that are nevertheless armored and armed to the point that they can almost be considered fighters in their own right, and which can lock onto enemy ships and breach their hulls, enabling the marines within to storm them and seize the ships from within.

<span class=""bb-b"">Semi-Sentience Profile:</span> Atlas is what the Leviathan's semi-sentience is called, and it is as old as the ship itself, dating back to the old Empire. Indeed, it still believed itself to be part of the Imperial Fleet, and stubbornly insists on calling the King ""Emperor"". It places great importance on tradition, and refuses to accept as captain any other than the rightful descendent and heir of its legendary captain of old, Harn Korwitz. 

It is as conservative in combat as out of it, preferring to take safe options rather than risky ones. Nevertheless, its wisdom is greatly respected by the crewmembers, as it has had over a millenium to gather combat data.

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Some wars can be won in space, but most are not over until the enemy planets and outposts are captured. Unfortunately, this often entails attacking heavily fortified positions. It is in this that the Ragnarok finds its niche: It specializes in cracking open planetary fortresses. 

Its 10 000 marines are trained to storm hell itself, and its guns have the precision and punch required to implode bunkers up to a kilometre underground. The Ragnarok also possesses a large stock of unconventional weapons, biological, chemical, and nuclear. In short, it is the King's hammer, that smashes the petty castles of his enemies.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ship History:</span> The <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>'s history dates back to the old Arcturian Empire, when it was constructed among the thousands of others of its kind, during the great drive to expand across the entire galaxy. While today the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> is among the largest vessels seen in space, certainly one of the largest HSR3s, at that epoch it was dwarfed by the behemoths that flew beside it, in the golden age of the Empire. 

After the battle of Milas, in which the Rival Claimants smashed the last emperor's forces and which lead to the sack of Almata, the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> was in the same situation as what was left of the Imperial fleets, isolated and without a clear purpose. Her captain elected to retreat to Plentiful Dawn, at the time only a remote colony. There, the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span> found others of the fleets, and joined them in defending the last bastion of Imperial power. For a thousand years, the ship fought, against every kind of enemy imaginable. In this time, tradition came to be that the vessel would pass from father to son in a hereditary fashion.

When the Valyrian fleet arrived, scattering the raiders who were threatening the very survival of Plentiful Dawn, the fortress-world was annexed into the growing kingdom, and the <span class=""bb-i"">Ragnarok</span>, along with its captain, Count Janos, were assimilated into the royal armadda.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Type:</span> Gothren-Class HSR2
<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Supporting the Ragnarok in bombarding planetary positions
<span class=""bb-b"">Details:</span> The Tartarus is a an old vessel, though not as old as the Ragnarok. Built in the dying days of the Empire, it was wrecked in one of the many battles of the epoch, fighting a rival faction of the Imperial Navy. It was recovered centuries later by the emerging Kingdom of Valyrius, which repaired it as best they could. 

The ship's AI, Hades, was beyond their understanding, however, and they were unable to fix it completely. Because of this, Hades is now known for its occasional logic errors and miscalculations, though the engineers aboard have installed failsafes so that the ship is still functional. 

It is currently commanded by Captain Bartrand, a fat lickspittle with little respect among his peers, and less among his crew.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
<span class=""bb-b"">The Chlorine</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Type:</span> Mirage HSR1
<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Scouting for enemy vessels
<span class=""bb-b"">Details:</span> The Chlorine- the name being an joke among its engineers that was never divulged to the admirality- is a Mirage, a relatively new ship model designed by the Kingdom, as opposed to being scavenged from Arcturian tech. Its offensive capabilities are meager for a capital ship, and its durability leaves much to be desired, but these weaknesses enable its true strength: Its speed. 

The Chlorine, like other mirages, is, aside from a few exceptions, one of the most maneuverable capital ships available to Royal forces. Its small size makes it easy for it to dodge incoming fire, at least compared to its larger cousins. The main purpose of Mirages, however, is to patrol, to scout, and to raid behind enemy line, destroying unprotected convoys and generally harassing the foe.

The ship's AI is also named Chlorine, and it is generally lacking in personality beyond its functions, having been designed with the lesser Valyrian technology. This causes no end of annoyance to Captain Gregory, a man who insists on finding everything in life humorous.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

<span class=""bb-b"">The Gdansk</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Type:</span> Bulow-Nvell HSR1
<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Destroying small strikecraft, including fighters, bombers, and fighter-bombers. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Details:</span> Like the Mirage class, Bulow-Nvells are a recent addition to the fleet, created from scratch by Valyrian scientists. They are heavily armored, and covered in flak turrets that fire in wide blasts, devastating enemy strikecraft at close range. This loadout is heavy, however, and costs in speed what is gained in defensive capabilities.

The Gdansk was attached to the Ragnarok after the battle of Archangel, and Count Korwitz's subsequent promotion to Vice-Admiral. It is one of the newest capital ships built yet, under a year old. Due to its young age, it has not currently had an AI installed, and all the functions a semi-sentience serve are currently filled with an overstaffed crew. Its current captain is Urwell Podesi, a man of low birth who ascended to his rank through valiant service and bravery in battle. He is honest and kind, though perhaps too much so, given his superior.</div></div></div>"

Augmentics: Genetically augmented from birth by Third Helix labs, Alexandria's augments are far less invasive than what would be expected of a front-line soldier. Synthetic muscle augments her physical strength to twice that of what a normal human would have, and a ceramic reinforced skeleton absorbs blows that would normally shatter bones.

During the Assault of Hinterpommern</div></div>
Personal History:

Growing up as the daughter of the Chairman, Jervis Reiksguard, Alexandria's childhood was largely spent in the UNISEC Academy of Martial Sciences, where she learned everything she would need to know to one day inherit a position as Director of the company. Her days in the academy are a bitter memory for her, as her bloodline left her as a special interest for teachers in the academy wanting to improve their standing, and quickly gained her a reputation as a favorite of the directors. With an already cold heart by the age of 18, she moved into the Third Division Interdiction teams with a penchant for cruelty and a ruthless view of procedure. Despite this, her command held firm, and those few who remained under her command became known for their unswerving loyalty to the rising commander.

Her reputation reached a peak during the efforts to suppress rebellions in the wake of the Reformation of the Pan-Solar Confederacy, leading mass executions and forming what became known as The Lexikon. Inspired by the creation of the Quarantine Fleets early in the history of the Terran Federation, she brought together all those who had previously served under her as a Warrant Officer, and with her new position as Warrant Officer General of the Third Division, she drafted them together into a new unit. With an iron core of dedicated loyalists across the entirety of Third Division, and the entire Eastern Quadrant Command's fleet at her disposal, the Lexikon consolidated itself into a juggernaut of UNISEC's military strength. Within years of its founding, the Lexikon had swept the Eastern Quadrant clear of rebellion and had already pushed into the bordering regions of the Pan-Solar.

It is here where Alexandria first began to falter in her ruthless crusade against those who dared to challenge her father and the Reformation. Despite her cold attitude towards those under her command, it had always been known, if not ever confirmed, that she held one person under her command in special regard. A man by the name of Sicarius Aurelius who had served under her command loyaly since she had first graduated from the academy. For ten years they had fought and shed blood together, on countless worlds where they covered each other's backs and saved the other numerous times. It was even said in hushed whispers that she loved him, those who saw the slightest hint of a smile on her lips when he entered the room. All of it crashed and burned, however, when Sicarius disappeared one day, leaving only his dogtags with Alexandria and asking her not to come looking for him.

Torn between procedure and loyalties to Sicarius, she chose to follow him on her own, going deep into contested territory within the PSC. Upon arriving on the planet of Hinterpommern in the nation of NeoPomerania, she found the reason for Sicarius' departure. Prior to the Reformation, the Aurelius family had held sway over a large region of space around the Pomerania system due to their strong ties to Ray Leonard. As part of the Reformation, one of Jervis' first moves was to immediately cripple the financial capabilities of those who had been closest to the former chairman, and the Aurelius family had been hit hardest by his new sanctions. Stripped of all their holdings and much of their wealth, the Aurelius family had been broken down to barely middle-class with Sicarius struggling to hold what little he had gained in the military. It was that struggle and the shame of losing everything that had driven Sicarius to take sides with the Loyalists, and be found standing amongst traitors when Alexandria had found him.

How exactly it was that she had eluded capture by the rebels remains unknown, but it was mere days later when the Lexikon began what would come to be known as the Quelling of Pomerania. In the opening hours of the campaign Alexandria had the entire region cut from the communication grid and their finances frozen, effectively crippling the worlds and their ability to reach out for assistance. Following this move, the outer worlds were broken one by one, the assault forces landing and crushing the meager resistances that had been able to be mustered. By the time she reached the capital of the region, however, word had already spread that she was on her way, and Hinterpommern was fully prepared.

For eight days the fleet battled the full might of the Pomerania system around the planet, ringing the world with debris from countless vessels until finally the Megali Isaakios broke the last line of defense. Drop pods rained down from orbit upon the capital city, each one filled with fire-teams bent on crushing what was believed to be the final stronghold of the rebellions. Alexandria led the charge herself as the pods hit surface, striking out into a wall of gunfire and pushing deep into the defenses. Despite taking heavy losses upon striking the surface, the UNISEC forces rallied quickly and continued the assault, breaking further into the heart of the city and eliminating any opposition they came across. After several hours of intense fighting the main assault group had finally made it to the capital steps, where Sicarius and the remnants of the Loyalist command held out.

Few accounts accurately depict the following scene, with some telling of how Alexandria executed Sicarius on the spot without a word, while others maintain that she and the traitor-general engaged in single-combat. No matter the details, Alexandria and her forces hoisted the flag of the Pan-Solar above the capital building as the sun set upon Hinterpommern, and within three weeks all of NeoPomerania was once more under the rightful rule of the Confederacy.

In the five years following the suppression of the last Loyalist stronghold, Alexandria relegated the Lexikon back to their former commands, as such a force was no longer relevant to the needs on the Confederacy. Her performance during the event gained her not only a position within the Second Division, but one of high-ranking command. Now she heads a small remnant of the Lexikon as First Class Warrant Officer, under contract to assist the Grand Duke in his conquest of Celestine V.</div></div>

Ship Name: Megali Isaakios (The Great Isaac)

Ship Type: UNISEC-SS/83/SDN-01/1 - UNISEC Star-Dreadnought (HSR4)

Semi-Sentience Profile: Completely absent.

Like all UNISEC vessels, and more particularly any vessel hailing from the Pan-Solar Confederacy, the Megali Isaakios does not have an AI controlling any systems of the ship. Instead the computing power of the vessel is sourced from nearly a dozen uplinked pilots from Global Cortex who remain submerged in the Manifold at all times and fully direct all of the vessels systems as well as communicate back and forth with other vessels.

Escort Ships: One to five HSR 1 and HSR 2 ships permitted as escorts for HSR 3 ships. Give escort class, escort names, and escort captain names (and brief desc if you feel like it) 
Ship Details/History:

Constructed fifteen years ago in the honour of Isaac Reiksguard ""The Stormsurge"", the Megali Isaakios has served in countless engagements against both traitor elements of the Confederacy, as well as more alien threats against the sanctity of the realm. Like other vessels of its class, the ship is primarily intended as a breakthrough vessel and remains as such. Where it differs is in the larger crew-quarters and expanded holds for vehicle deployment, capable of holding nearly 10,000 fully armed soldiers, five-hundred main-battle tanks as well as an additional three-hundred gunships and the crews for the vehicles.

Unlike other vessels of the UNISEC fleets, the Isaakios bears her scars as a badge of honor, scorch marks running the length of the hull from repeated impacts repaired over the fifteen year combat-record of the dreadnought. Alongside every mark upon the hull, no matter how large or small, there is an inscription notating the date of the battle, and the feats of not only the Isaakios, but also the other vessels which participated alongside her. The end result is a mobile memorial to the fallen of countless battles, come to deliver the vengeance that they cannot.

The patriarchs behave less like a ruling body and more like a bunch of old war buddies on an extended camping trip.  They have considerable interest in the culture, technology and food of other species.
Thralls lack initiative, and will obey the commands of anyone who is convincing enough.  Journeymen aren’t quite as foolish but are imprinted to be loyal to the patriarchs.</div></div>

The ship drifts for millions of years, and eventually encounters other alien life.  The Gedune uplift the Kakerlakes, augmenting some of their number with cybernetic computer systems, granting them long-term memory.  The first augmented Kakerlakes turned out to be skilled negotiators with little regard for their unaugmented brethren, and promptly sold many of the thralls aboard into slavery in exchange for the repair and refit of their ship.  These twenty-eight augmented Kakerlakes formed the Patriarchy of Babel, and continued on their merry way.</div></div>

The Kakerlak are evolved cockroaches, 3-4 feet in length.  They have a maximum lifespan of around a decade. 
Like normal cockroaches (but more so), Kakerlake are almost immune to radiation, able to survive thousands of times the radiation a human could.  They can survive hundreds of gravities of acceleration, and are very resilient in general.  They can function in vacuum for more than an hour without oxygen, regenerate lost limbs, and are even receptive to freeze-drying.
Although they have a natural aptitude for tools and language, the average Kakerlak is comparable in intelligence with a dumb human.  Even the smartest could only be considered to be of average intellect by other sentient species.  And all un-augmented Kakerlake have a long term memory that lasts no longer than a week.  Although their instinctual skills make them well suited for the basic operation and maintenance of a spacecraft, without direction they are hopeless.
There are more than six thousand un-augmented Kakerlake (Thralls) aboard <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span>.
Because of their resilience and regenerative capabilities, Kakerlake are easy to cybernetically augment.  The thralls are led by journeymen and patriarchs, which are augmented with computer systems which merge seamlessly with the brain.  The computer systems record for and direct the Kakerlak, imparting long term memories and enhancing their cogitation.  Only the smartest among the thralls are typically chosen for cybernetic augmentation, and those gain a plethora of computerized tools to aid them in mathematics, navigation and translation, among other subjects.
Because long-term memory retention is solely the job of the cybernetics, Kakerlakes have attained effective immortality, and can even be transferred from cockroach to shipboard computer.
Patriarch Kakerlakes are old; some have lived dozens of lifetimes.  There are only twenty-eight of them, and not one has yet died a true death.  As the Kakerlake journey between stars, they reside solely within the ship’s computers, except for the one patriarch designated as the Watcher.  During the long journeys through deep space these patriarchs guide their species’ evolution through a mixture of selective breeding and genetic engineering.
Journeymen are young augmented Kakerlakes typically imprinted with only skills, not memories.  They direct the thralls, handle delicate tasks aboard the ship, and generally carry out the demands of the patriarchs.  Lacking the wisdom (and sentimental value) of the patriarchs, journeymen rarely live more than one life.
There are currently only a hundred journeymen aboard <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span>, although that number will rise in times of crisis.
Kakerlakes are omnivores, and will eat anything, even dead Kakerlake.  Kakerlake females are smaller than the males and give birth to as many as a dozen egg cases in a single year—each containing 40-60 eggs.  Where space and resources are limited (such as aboard <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span>), the young eat one another until the population crisis is resolved.
Kakerlake exoskeletons are resistant to small arms fire and their underdeveloped wings allow them to, with significant effort, fly under Earth gravity.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Summary of Traits:</span> Very resistant to radiation, vacuum, toxins.  Can withstand tremendous acceleration and are generally very durable.  No long term memory without cybernetic augmentation.  Augmented Kakerlake have a photographic memory.</div></div>

A mere 340 meters long, massing almost 780,000 tons, <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span> is home to an entire species.  Within, six thousand irradiated cockroaches crawl within its empty fuel tanks.  When the ship refuels, they die en-mass, frozen in liquid hydrogen.
The hull is dotted with ferro-thrusters (essentially gauss cannons) which function as high-thrust RCS engines and double as extremely short range weapons.
Between the armored ribs lies the Siphon, which can suck in vast amounts of gas from atmospheres of gas giants or terrestrial worlds.
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/cf0e5uA.png""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">Babel’s</span> computer systems are a hybrid of digital and analog technologies—silicon transistors, fiber optic switches and even some mechanical components.  Such is their specialization that these systems are incredibly confusing repair and maintain.
Fortunately, the Kakerlakes who made them yet live and possess photographic memories. <span class=""bb-i"">Babel’s</span> computer systems might be slower than those of other spacecraft, but radiation damage and EMP causes only minor and temporary problems.
That, and they're operated by taped recordings of dead cockroaches.

A fissile salt is injected into a deuterium bath composing most of the reaction chamber in subcritical densities.  This fuel reaches supersonic speeds as it is pumped through the plenum and reaction mass is added (this can be anything, but denser elements will result in more thrust and less specific impulse).  It begins a thermonuclear reaction within the plenum, although this blast is shaped and contained by the still sub-critical fuel above it.  As the detonating mass is ejected from the nozzle, temperatures and densities cause a chain-fusion reaction (deuterium fuse, creating tritium and helium-3 which fuse creating helium-4).  At a low setting this process is more controlled and nets a higher specific impulse (but less thrust).
Acceleration under normal operation ranges from 10 to 20 G's, but in close proximity to a gas giant <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span> can create a fusion explosion within its atmosphere, resulting in over 100 G's of sudden acceleration.
With a mass ratio of 3, <span class=""bb-i"">Babel</span> has nearly 9000 km/s of dV (enough to reach 3% C).

Ship Type: Sagittario Class Artillery Barge

Semi-Sentience Profile: The semi-sentience onboard the Punta di Lancia was originally intended to manage the strike fighters it typically carries with it, however it has since become corrupted and erratic, although it does not demonstrate any immediate danger to the crew of the Punta di Lancia. Since its days as the AI of the Corazzata, the AI has proven that it is extremely adaptable, highlighted by how it is able to manage the two large artillery cannons that have since been put on the Punta di Lancia. Although the AI is incredibly adaptable, it is still corrupted, often depending on the Neural Uplink with its captain when it goes through one if its strange bouts of extremely unusual activity.

Escort Ships: Five Martello HSR2 class Corvettes, armed with four front-facing autocannons and two large artillery cannons which are smaller when compared to the ones mounted on the Punta di Lancia. These five ships are; the Sorcerer’s Hand, the Rhino, the Corridore, the Camminare Uccello, and the Rabbia di Righello.

 
Ship Details &amp; History: The Punta di Lancia is an old ship which has survived multiple battles. It was originally a bulky, blocklike ship sporting a black and red paintjob, approximately 4 kilometers in length. It has since been modified to bear a much sleeker design, as well as a new white and grey paintjob. Originally meant to be a carrier ship, the Punta di Lancia has since gained a pair of artillery turrets on the side. The Punta di Lancia is unique in the fact that it has engines on all sides, allowing the vehicle to move up, down, and strafe at will. Due to its age and war history, the Punta di Lancia has a damaged door mechanism on one of its hangar doors, however the door is still functional. Its age shows in the fact that even though it is heavily armored, its shield systems are barely sufficient for a ship of its size. Not only that, but the Punta di Lancia has engine systems that are barely powerful enough to move the ship at decent speeds, making it a sitting duck in a close range engagement. 
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Officers are WIP</li><li>The Punta di Lancia is capable of carrying up to 27500 human passengers, although typically only 7400 crew members are onboard at a time.</li><li>While its original design was meant to be a carrier, the Punta di Lancia is armed with two large turrets on the side which have high caliber, extremely accurate gauss cannons mounted on them.

<span class=""bb-u"">Martello Class Corvette:</span> The Martello is very small for its HSR2 classification, at only 500 meters long. The Martello was designed specifically for the task of escorting larger ships than itself, being fairly slow, heavily armored, and heavily shielded. The Martello is armed with a set of four autocannons at the very front of the vessel, as well as two artillery gauss cannons coming out of the side. It has not seen combat before the Reconquest. It sports a pure white paintjob, with a sleek design, and blue thruster flames.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">HSR3</span></span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Corazzata Class Carrier:</span> The Corazzata is a large, old, slow ship. It spans approximately 4 kilometers in length, has two large hangar bay doors on the side, both connected to a single large hangar bay capable of holding thousands of fighters. It is armed with a set of two large rocket pods at the very front of the vessel, and has various point defense turrets placed on the ship. The Corazzata class is extremely heavily armored, but it has insufficient shield systems for it’s size. It sports a black paintjob with a single red stripe going down the left side, a blocky, ugly design, as well as orange thruster flames.


<span class=""bb-u"">Sagittario Class Artillery Barge:</span> The Sagittario is a modified version of the Corazzata, spanning the same length and with many of the same features. The Sagittario is slightly more heavily armored than the Corazzata, it still has the large hangar bay the Corazzata features, as well as an improved shield system. In terms of weapons, it possesses the same two large rocket pods as the Corazzata, two large artillery turrets mounted on the side of the vessel, and point defense turrets mounted in key spots to fend off enemy fighters. The Sagittario features a white paintjob, with two small and one large gray stripe going down the side, a much sleeker design, as well as blue thruster flames.</div></div></div>"

- Dante, the Inferno

<span class=""bb-b"">One Year Ago, shortly after the Battle of Archangel, on the outskirts of the Maalik System...</span>

Captain von Grimnour sat slumped in her command throne, mind divided between the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s Semi-Sentience- feeding her a constant stream of updated data- and the activity on the bridge. Officers bustled between computer banks and Lieutenant Travini paced slowly in front of the strategic holodisplay, tugging at his side whiskers and barking the occasional order.  

An hour ago, a Jihadist fleet had emerged from the far side of the Charon Belt, and was now forming up to meet the Royal squadron. A big Jihadist fleet. Well organized. With a battleship.

""How in Ovo's Six fucking Names did they get around us, Lieutenant? With a godsfucked <span class=""bb-i"">Imperatrix</span>?!"" the Captain spat. 

Travini merely frowned and continued pacing.

Naval Intelligence had bungled, badly. The Arian fleets were supposed to be falling back from the Maalik System in panic, turning on each other. Grimnour's squadron was merely supposed to clean up the stragglers and scout out any remaining enemy ships of note.

<span class=""bb-i"">Some fucking stragglers.</span> the captain thought, glaring as she watched the holodisplay.

The Jihadist ships were coming on in serried rows, five heavy cruisers flanking an <span class=""bb-i"">Imperatrix-class</span> battleship, a 10km behemoth that the Lionhead's memory banks identified as the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span>, the flagship of one of Arius' chief Void-Heirophants. Apparently His Unapproachable Majesty the King <span class=""bb-i"">hadn't</span> smashed his enemies at Archangel <span class=""bb-i"">quite</span> thoroughly.

Escort craft hovered around the enemy super-ship like carrion birds around some ancient predator.

Comms from the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s escorts began pinging the bridge. Commanders and captains requesting orders. 

""We'll be in the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span>'s primary ordinance range in twenty,"" said Lt. Travini.

Grimnour cursed. She had ten ships under her command, five frigates, a hunter-killer pair of destroyers, and two cruisers besides the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>. Caught off guard, with a major enemy strikeforce advancing between them and the nearest viable subspace translation point, her odds were abysmal. The <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s Semi-Sentience blurted a neuropulse with its terse agreement.

Grimnour scanned the holodisplay. She saw her least terrible option.

""This is <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span> to squadron."" she declared over her comms, ""They expect us to make a run for it, to drive us deeper into this system. Fuck that. Sure we'll run for it- straight through them. Bisect their fleet and translate as soon as your engines can take it. It's been a pleasure serving with you. That is all.""

The commlink erupted with the grim affirmatives of her escort vessels.

The Royal Squadron assumed its offensive formation, the Indoril-class cruisers <span class=""bb-i"">Count van Fesselvingen</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">Pride of Adriatus</span> following the Fisher-class <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span> in the line of battle, with the squadron's frigates and destroyers in defensive positions between the larger ships.

""Shields up, strike craft launch."" barked Grimnour. A bright azure flash illumined the bridge windows for a half-second as the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s shields ignited. All along the Royal squadron, fighter-bombers launched from shipboard hangers as shields enveloped the serrated-dagger hulls of His Majesty's Navy.

The Arian fleet powered forward to meet their civilized foes, broadcasting their battle-liturgies on the open comm-channels, demanding obeisance to their dreadful and immanent gods. But they had slowed somewhat, perhaps confused by their enemy's unexpected counter-charge.

""Enemy fleet entering mass driver range in five."" Travini announced.

Alarms sounded in the bridge as sensors picked up multiple enemy lock-ons.

Grimnour closed her eyes and allowed her mind to integrate fully with the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s semisentience. For one deliriously delicious moment she <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> the ship, her heart beating in sympathy with the thrum of the massive engines, burning with the ferocity of small sun. She inhaled slowly, feeling the heavy cannon on her flanks rotate as they locked on to enemy vessels, the torpedoes sitting in the launch tubes, their dim AIs buzzing impatiently for release. Her skin prickled, suddenly alert to the electric ripples in the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s void-shields as they realigned and adjusted to meet incoming projectiles. She could see the outlines of her enemies, painted bright against the void by the ship's targeting systems, looming closer and closer. She could feel the eagerness of their bloodthirsty AIs.

She gave the order to fire without speaking. She willed it, and the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span> obliged.

Then the bloodletting began.

The fleets opened up with long range mass-volleys and lance fire. The forward guns on the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span> gutted three Valyrian frigates outright and scored solid hits on the cruisers. The <span class=""bb-i"">Count van Fesselvingen</span> took a mass-round to the nose, and sped on towards the enemy trailing hunks of armor. The <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s sheilds rippled and sparked as they absorbed the worse of the enemy's wrath.

Grimnour eased out of full integration with her ship, suppressing a twinge of panic as the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span> loomed ever closer in on the holographic battle display in the center of the bridge, and as her shields deflected heavier and heavier fire. She glanced at Travini, whose bewhiskered face was bright red... but who was otherwise calm, sedately polishing his monocle and shouting the occasional order.

""Mister Ryloth, ready the back breakers,"" he said as the fleets drew within primary ordinance range.

Outside, in the vacuum, the Royal and Arian strike craft wings collided into spiraling dogfights just as the Royal ships launched their first torpedo waves. 

Nuclear detonations and EMP bursts erupted along the barbarian line... and then the two fleets collided.

The void was alight with tracer fire and heavy laser exchanges. The Royal ships made their pass to the port side of the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span>, raking the monstrosity with fire. The supership's guns remained silent a moment, enough time for Grimnour to allow herself the hope that it was suffering a massive malfunction.

The <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span>'s first broadside obliterated the <span class=""bb-i"">Pride of Adriatus</span> and took out the bridge tower on the <span class=""bb-i"">Fesselvingen</span>. It's shields popped by the onslaught, the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span> returned fire vigorously as explosions erupted along its serrated-dagger hull.

Alarms sounded on the bridge. The captain's neural uplink sent her flashes of pain as the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s semisentience registered damage.

""Travini, divert all power from the guns to engines! We'll-""

There was a bright flash and a noise like a scream, and then silence as the bridge opened to the void. Grimnour clung to her command throne as her lieutenant and officers were sucked through the <span class=""bb-i"">Lionhead</span>'s burning wound and up into the airless night.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Present Day...</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Strategic Orrery, the Orbital Fortress <span class=""bb-i"">Invincible</span>, in orbit of Odros, Valyrian System....</span>

Count Cezare stood as the officers of His Unapproachable Majesty's Second Royal Expeditionary Force assembled, filling the amphitheater with the buzz of a thousand muted conversations. Generals in their crimson dress uniforms, medals tinkling on their chests, filed into the massive chamber alongside naval captains and commodores in deep blue tunics. Hulking Gn'Mok Legates, clad in the rune-inscribed bronze plate traditional to their rank, stood silently at attention on the floor of the chamber, their black eyes unblinking. Nyrkin battle-masters, Introgg warchiefs, Xos dignitaries and even more exotic xenos commanders clicked and chittered to one another as they took their seats below the human officers, who regarded them with mixed surprise and distaste. For xenos to be included in a formal operational briefing was most irregular.

Cezare tugged absentmindedly at his starched collar, throwing a glance at Lord Admiral Rutherford, seated with the naval leadership on the High Command dais. Rutherford was eying the proceedings with his customary facade of paternal sternness, in contrast to Rear Admiral Wander who sat just to his left, wearing a mild smirk, as though in on some joke everyone else was missing. Behind both men, somewhat obscured by shadow (<span class=""bb-i"">no doubt on purpose</span>, thought Cezare, <span class=""bb-i"">the old ghoul loves to play it up</span>), lurked Vice-Admiral Korwitz.

The buzz of chatter in the room fell silent in an instant, and the assembled commanders scrambled to their feet. Cezare did not need to glance at the entryway to know why. His Radiance the Grand Duke had arrived.

A short man, heavily built, with thick dark hair and a magnificent mustache, Konrad von Ravenstein swept into the room without ceremony, an unlit pipe jutting from the corner of his mouth. He took his seat amid the High Command staff, green eyes hooded and watchful. The room took its cue and sat down, save Cezare, who cleared his throat.

""Welcome, excellencies,"" said the Count, ""to His Unapproachable Majesty's Second Royal Expeditionary Force. As you know, we have been tasked with claiming the Maalik System for the glory of the King and the Kingdom, freeing its enslaved masses from the deluded followers of Arius, of cursed memory.""

At the mention of the Maalik System, the lights dimmed and the holodisplay in the center of the Orrery ignited, filling the room with a detailed, three dimensional star chart of the Leopon Sector, with the Maalik System highlighted in blood red. The hologram magnified the System, the planets and bodies of which filled the room as they spun lazily in their orbits.

""Our target system has seven planets, all terraformed and populated by the old Empire. These are: Celestine V, Acheron, Virgilius, Minos II, Malacoda Minor, Cerebus, and the ice-world Cocytus VI..."" said the Count, the holodisplay highlighting each planet in turn, displaying geographic details, population statistics and military assesments, ""Of these, Celestine, Minos and Cocytus have populated moons. Other notable bodies include the Charon Asteroid Belt bisecting the system, and the gas-giant Caina. Enemy strength in the system is high. Our intelligence reports no less than three major naval battlegroups, including the battleships <span class=""bb-i"">Malebranche</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">Atropos</span>. The <span class=""bb-i"">Atropos</span>, at least, suffered catastrophic damage at Archangel-""

The naval officers interrupted with a polite smattering of applause directed at the abhuman Captain Lutzen, who grinned toothily. 

""-and is undergoing extensive repairs, but the other two ships are in good working order. Ground forces, likewise, are numerous, the usual Arian mix of farmed clones with battle augments, local conscripts and mercenaries, slave soldiers, and drone-tanks and atmospheric craft."" 

Count Cezare cleared his throat and continued. 

""Our naval dispositions are as follows: the Second Expeditionary Fleet will comprise six major combat squadrons: <span class=""bb-u"">Alpha</span>, <span class=""bb-u"">Beta</span>, <span class=""bb-u"">Gamma</span>, <span class=""bb-u"">Epsilon</span>, <span class=""bb-u"">Rho</span>, and <span class=""bb-u"">Omega</span>. Captains, you have been given your assignments already. Generals, the troopships and landers will follow the fleet's lead. Our invasion hinges on the Maalik System's two stable subspace translation points, codenamed <span class=""bb-i"">Paolo</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">Francesca</span>. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Paolo</span> is located center-system, just beyond the orbit of Celestine V. The enemy have made Celestine and its moon, Pontius, into a formidable fortress-world. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Francesca</span> is located within the Charon Belt, in the outer system. Thanks to His Majesty's announcement of the Reconquest, the enemy knows we are coming. Our options are... limited. Given their fortifications at Celestine, the enemy likely expects a push through <span class=""bb-i"">Francesca</span>, and has filled the Charon Belt with hired marauders and pirate wolf packs to harry any attempted incursion. 

Our strategic plan is simple: a feint through <span class=""bb-i"">Francesca</span> with naval squadrons <span class=""bb-u"">Rho</span> and <span class=""bb-u"">Epsilon</span>, who will engage the mercenary elements in the Belt in clearing operations designed to give the impression of an impending full-scale push. The squadrons will be able to use the Belt to their advantage, avoiding larger enemy fleet deployments and making use of old Imperial depots and mining installations to resupply. They will be given a steady stream of reinforcements in order to further the impression that this is where our main fleet will translate. Our attack, however, will come through <span class=""bb-i"">Paolo</span>.""

The holodisplay focused on Celestine V and its moon, highlighting its extensive fleet protection and orbital fortifications. Murmurs arose throughout the amphitheater.

Hidden within the rows were other golden-haired, youthful children of House Wander. Captain Claus Wander of the frigate Fury, Administrator Katherine Wander of Royal Logistics Corps, several branch relatives from House Melathon amidst the escort leader ranks, and several others he didn't recognize from lesser vassal houses intermarried with House Wander. He'd have to arrange a proper reunion over some bottles of Void Wine, as per House Wander custom.

Still, despite his apparent carefree attitude and reason for cheer, he was more than aware of the situation at hand and what the Admiral was asking for. A very aggressive assault against the strongest point of enemy resistance. If they succeeded, the success of the rest of the reconquest would not be in doubt. If they failed....well it would make things ""interesting"" in the most ancient sense of the word. Especially since a jump at the point closest to the enemy forts meant hauling the logistics division under his command a lot closer to the front than doctrine called for. But they'd be bloody necessary to keep ships alive and supplied in the high-intensity battle likely to come.

Mentally tapping his VR implant to compile a message to the rest of the Wander's in the room for a family dinner and afternoon entertainment as well as planning session, Wander spent the rest of the briefing watching the moods of the captains and commanders. Making a list of who approved and who visibly disagreed with the master plan of the admirals. The former were to be noted, the latter to be confronted. He had nothing against honest disagreement, but showing it here and now did not bespeak well to a captain's political savvy, which would certainly play a part when this campaign hit the actual ""reconquest"" part. And he didn't want perfectly good command staff to be wasted because of some misstep in etiquette. At least not yet.</div>"

To her left sat Commander Wolfram De Ruger, Wolfram had been with Yekaterina since her days commanding the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> and was her sole confidante in the fleet. Now he commanded her escort detail, and though he had a ship of his own he was still very much her First Mate. To her right sat Captain Neion, the Tinman. He was a crude and brutish thug who was more machine than anyone had any right to be and was an angry and bitter lout who found it very difficult to hide that he was an angry and bitter lout. In other words he was the perfect man to be the right hand of Rho Squadron. She trusted him to do whatever was necessary to complete their objectives and the fact that he wasn't the slack jawed idiot that she often chided him for being made him all the better suited for the job. They weren't as close as she was with Commander De Ruger, but he also hadn't spent the last decade serving alongside her as Wolfram had. Filling out the seats in front of and behind her were the other officers of note in Rho Squadron, Yekaterina had tried to get Legate Kossk, the hulking leader of her marines, up among the others as well but there was a protocol for such things and a Gn'Mok legate among the naval staff was not it.

With little else to do in her spare time Yekaterina drew a small spring-loaded knife from her pocket and began to play with it. This drew the attention of both Commander De Ruger and Captain Neion who looked at her in much the same way a parent would look at a toddler doing something completely absurd. She hardly noticed either of them as she cleaned under her already immaculate nails with the blade and went back to flicking it open and closed. ""I picked one of these up when I was last home. I figured it was finally time to see the object that gave me my nickname,"" she said flicking it open again. Her eyes were focused on the blade not the incredulous stares of her underlings. ""I can't actually tell if I should be flattered or offended by the comparison. Its a nifty little toy but its hardly a threatening weapon. If I ended up in a knife fight I think I'd want something with a bit more heft to it than this, a proper combat knife. I can't imagine how this thing came to be the symbol of cutthroats and ne'er do wells."" Wolfram simply chuckled at her observations. 

Stowing her knife Commodore Von Ingram tugged at her dress jacket absently, it didn't fit her chest properly yet she had forgotten to get it fitted when she was last in port. The crowd of officers began to rise to attention as the Grand Duke entered the room. Yekaterina followed suit. She had the demeanor of a bitch but if Neion was anything to go by it certainly payed to respect one's superiors. She listened carefully to the briefing though she already knew what her part in the operation was.

<div class=""bb-center"">"" Our attack, however, will come through Paolo.""</div>

Yekaterina narrowed her eyes at the words and carefully glanced towards Wolf who met her gaze. The Grand Duke certainly had a reputation to uphold, their expressions seemed to say, not that it was a particularly good reputation for most people. At least Rho Squadron wouldn't be in the thick of things, she didn't like the thought of going toe to toe with an Arian battlewagon, she wasn't Captain Lutzen and had no intention of being more like him. As the briefing ended and the admirals left she stood to leave with the others unbuttoning her jacket as she walked. By the time she was out of the Amphitheater she had the unlatched all of the polished buttons and was walking at a clip that her men found difficult to keep up, her jacket billowing slightly like an exaggerated cape as she made her way out. She had a lot of work to do considering this entire plan hinged on her and that over-starched prick Morning raising enough hell for the invasion fleet to not be turned to cinders as they translated into realspace.</div>"

For a few seconds, Commodore Janos Korwitz heard only silence and saw only darkness, as if he had died. Life came back to him slowly, though never completely; it was as if he was dreaming, and for what seemed like years he could only try to interpret the blurry and confused images he saw. There was screaming, yes- a united chorus of shrieks and shouts, coming from those he had come to known and worked with. He seemed to be covered in rubble, which impaired his vision, but at one point he thought he saw Commodore Fenris, a greatly respected man within the Navy, drag himself across the podium's floor, missing everything waist-down. Then again, it might have just been a hallucination, as he was blacking out regularily.

He was not conscious when they pulled him out of the rubble, put him in the van in a pile- like corpses, one would think- and put him on the operating table. Later, he would be told that his wounds were thought to be terminal: Both his legs had been blown off, and shrapnel had savaged his body, making a mess of his organs, and almost severing his right arm it two. But modern medical science was a truly amazing thing, and with the most advanced cybernetics, they were able to repair him, or was it replaced? He sometimes wondered if he was the same man who had entered the Royal Officer's Academy that day, to see his son's entrance into the His Majesty's Forces. Perhaps that man died, and he was simply a machine who believed himself to be the same. Twenty-three men died that day, including four captains and a commodore. 

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Half a year later, he was sitting amongst his peers, more machine than man, to see the entertainement. They were in a small room, filled with chairs and men of importance, all facing a glass window that covered a wall. Beyond the window was a firing squad: Twenty soldiers to execute ten prisonners. There was a jovial mood in the room, as captains and commodores traded jokes and laughed at the impending slaughter. Janos was in his own universe, however, and stared only at the prisonners, blindfolded, tied to the concrete wall, arms spread. 

They were members of the Sons of Liberty, he had learned- a terrorist organization of radicals seeking to overthrow His Majesty and instate a democratic republic. They had commited terrorist actions all over the Kingdom for years now, funded by Arius's regime, who sought to weaken the Kingdom to path the way for its invasion. It was they, he also knew, who had planted the explosive on that day, five months ago, which killed so many and destroyed so much. Since that day, there had been a severe crackdown- this was only the latest of a long string of executions. So far hundreds of their agents had been uncovered, judged guilty, and executed. It was one thing to massacre commoners, but killing officers was a crime in a league of its own.

The officer leading the firing squad barked an order, and his men raised their guns. When he barked again, they fired in unison, a thunder of shot raking the terrorists. Janos felt something in himself wither as he watched their limp corpses hang from their shackles. He did not know which one of them was his son, and yet strangely, that no longer mattered. The fact that his wife was also dead, having lept to her death shortly before the execution, also seemed to him strangely inconsequential. All other emotions were put aside to make way for cold rage, a silent, yet stifling fury, directed at the filthy jihadists and xenos, who had caused so much misery and death. For them, there would be no mercy of a quick death.

***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Vice-Admiral Korwitz thus stood in the shadows, filled with a silent anger, watching with both his synthetic and his organic eye the xenos assembled here. <span class=""bb-i"">They should launched into the vacuum of space</span>, he thought, <span class=""bb-i"">not welcomed among us</span>. <span class=""bb-i"">This will need to be rectified</span>.

His mind roared and his hands gripped the arms of his chair so tightly he nearly tore the dam things off. Especially with his Cybernetic forearm which was more than possessing of the strength to do just that. But fortunately the sharp booms of ionized energy being smashed against their hull. Whether by the grace of the last few remaining ounces of power left in the shields or sheer tenacity on the part of the Centaur as it simply seemed to shrug off the fire from the enemy frigate and continue barreling through the screen of Laser bolts upon it's foe. 

Michael's eyes were closed and he was all but deaf to the streams of information being thrown around and at him. He didn't need to hear from his commander that the shields were down, or have the crewman working at the engineering station tell him the enemy frigate was altering course. He could already see these things.... sort of. Not literally with his own eyes but through the eyes of the Centaur. He was viewing the battle from an almost first person perspective of his ship. It was a difficult experience to describe exactly and he doubted he ever could explain it properly with words. To merge minds with your vessel in such a way, more than the basic Neural link that all officers and the ungrateful receive so casually in this kingdom. But an enhanced connection, a deeper connection. One that transcended mere numbers and basic information. One that allowed him to feel the very essence of the ship to listen and work alongside it and understand how it was viewing the battle around it. 

Right now he new the Centaur was hungry. It wanted the blood of this arrogant little frigate who had the gall to try and damage it alongside it's two former brethren that lay strewn and pieced out all around them. The shots that were landing against the bow of the ship were starting to tell. Without the shields deployed they only had the hull to rely on. Admittedly the hull was thicker than most ships of it;s size and even thicker than some much larger but it wouldn't hold out forever. The crew new this and despite the fact that one layer thick layer of reinforced Steel was all that was currently standing between them and oblivion they continued working unworried. The ship rocked and shook around them as blast after blast landed and reports of light damage were starting to come in from the forward sections but still the captain kept his eyes closed and the ship on course. He felt the ships hunger, the need not just to fight it and blast it away from a distance but to close in and obliterate it utterly and completely. A tactic not often seen by HSR-2 class ships but beloved by this particular AI.

It was only when the Centaur was finally broadside to broadside with the frigate did Michael's eyes snap open and one barked order had the ten light laser batteries that were previously standing by awaiting the signal roar to life and tear across the surface of the enemy vessels. Followed shortly by dozens of point defense turrets and cannon that littered the frigates hull with countless minor explosions and lights. It was almost pretty in a morbid sort of way if one ignored the knowledge that they were extinguishing a few hundred lives in the process. 

Between these additional cannons and the five heavy batteries that were already being fired and used through this entire scenario they made short work indeed of the enemy shields and hull after that. He felt the immense satisfaction of the ships spirit as it watched the other ship crumple like paper under it's unyielding cannons. And only when the entire vessel was reduced to a pile of rubble so complete that nothing could possibly have survived he Michael order the weapons systems to cease firing. Even in the bitter cold of space the muzzles of the laser batteries would have been warm to the touch with the raw power and punishing speed they were unloading their deadly payloads with. And Michael felt something then..... even though he pulled himself out of the Centaur's mind to rejoin the mere mortal existence of his crew he could feel an deep satisfaction at having slain another foe and punished more unworthy for their insolence and violence against the kingdom that was now it's home.

“Praefectus” One of his Petty officers whispered just loud enough to try and gather his captain's attention. It was clear from the look on Michael's face that he was in personal commune with the venerable spirit of the ship and the crew always shied away from disturbing him from such a enviable connection. “The supply ships.” He reminded him as the captain looked down at his astronomical display for the first time since arriving at this region. Caught up with the blood fever of the Centaur at the promise of battle he almost completely forgot why they were here in the first place. The convoy they were sent to harass was trying to limp it's way to safety. Hoping vainly that enough damage was done to the Centaur to prevent it from turning back around and finishing what an earlier salvo from the heavy cannons started. 

As reports of real damage were being reported across the forward vessel he knew they would not be able to stand up to another fight if reinforcements came. There were two other Minotaur class vessels cleaning up the rest of the convoy. What few vessels of this class were left were at least being wisely used for their intended purpose. Michael noted happily. Hit and run, arrive quickly were they were least expected destroy everything possible as fast as possible and bugger off before reinforcements could be deployed. Both of the other vessels were far more injured than the Centaur. This convoy was a little more guarded than they were lead to believe and it took far longer to dispatch the various corvettes and escort frigates than anticipated. 

He had word sent to the other captains to return quickly and leave the clean-up to him. They seemed eager enough to oblige and as they turned and made ready to fire up their engines and depart this system the Centaur powered up it's cannons yet again.

******************************** (Six months later... Present day)

If there was one drawback to his captaincy it was being at meetings like these. He would much prefer to receive such briefings in the comfort of his chair or quarters, surrounded by the familiar smell of recycled air and cold yet welcoming embrace of the tight corridors and hard deck plates. He didn't know if it was a side effect of the deeper neural link he shared with his vessel. The more personal connection afforded to him as a Praefectus that made him constantly drawn to his ship and only leaving it;s side when absolutely necessary. Or maybe the naval life was just that ingrained within him after forty years of education and distinguished service that he felt more comfortable on his personal bunk aboard his personal ship than anywhere else. He supposed that wasn't that illogical or unreasonable.

Either way this meeting was a drain on his time but he refused to let it show on his face. He sat straight backed in his seat among-st the other captains and lesser mortals that were arrayed behind the commodores, admirals and generals. Beside him the major of his marine contingent, Viktor Tharkk was dressed splendidly in the crimson and black uniform of a marine officer. His chest was also covered in medals and badges earned over his lifetime of service but there was none he wore as proudly as the blue and silver pins on his collar displaying his loyalty and allegiance to the house Val'Holryn as a vassal and servant. The Val'Holryn eye, the symbol of the great house of his captain and Praefectus. 

Amongst most officers in the room he stood out not just for being the only marine officer invited to the briefing but also for the fact he was one of the few people that made no effort to hide his cybernetics. Between his right hand and respirator that covered his lower face and two Piercing blue cybernetic eyes that were by far the most visible and eye catching of his features. He had numerous other augmentations below the surface of his uniform. Far more than most people gathered here and certainly far more of them willingly and voluntarily received. Not to mention the hard scarring that covered the right side of his face and extended up to the scalp and down the back of the head it was hard to believe that he actually cut quite the handsome figure in his younger days.

One would assume a man of his rank and position would easily be able to afford the most expensive materials and synthetic skin to coat and hide his augments, especially a working lower jaw to replace the one he lost two years ago when this entire fiasco against the false Jihadists began. Instead of a simple metallic grate respirator like those the poor were forced to rely on. But he was far more proud of his robotic parts than his biological ones and refused to cover and hide them as if they were something to be ashamed of. Michael was very proud of his men for their piety and devotion. Most were like the major and bore their augments proudly and received them willingly.

It may seem odd to some to bring a marine commander (and he certainly received a raised eyebrow or two) to a naval briefing instead of his second but the major had more than just a few surface augments. He had hidden ones implanted into his mind and body. False organs, reinforced rib-cage and recorders that processed everything he heard and saw when he so desired. Perfect for a man who's entire duty was a eye for meticulous exactitude both in the standards of his men and the execution of orders and tactics. He recorded every face and his eyes recorded picts of every form and piece of information that came across him. These traits made him invaluable to Michael and while most may look down on such drastic augmentation and the deadly risks associated with so many internal and particularly head based implants and augments the potential benefits far outweighed such concerns. 

And so those cybernetic eyes zoomed and adjusted and took in every face and every image it could. Deciding what was worth capturing in picture or recording and discarding the rest. His brain was just as cybernetic as it was organic and used this power to filter through a dozen details at once. Knowing what his captain would want to be reminded and have record of for future referrals, he recording every word spoken by count Cezare and took in every inch of battle line and tactic being portrayed in the hologram around them. No detail was too small or irrelevant when it came to an invasion. And Viktor was nothing if not meticulous in his gathering of every possible scrap of information.</div>"

Captain Leidolf Lutzen pulled himself to one side of the vast corridor and behind one of the ornately furnished columns lining it to avoid the oncoming mass of murmuring officers, who were vacating the Orrery en masse now that the briefing had concluded. To his slight, but niggling embarrassment, he had noticed a seam some how torn into the sleeve of his uniform mid-briefing. A tuft of black fur protruded from it. He desperately hoped that he was the only one that noticed it. 

""Something must be wrong with you today, fuzzball."" Said a voice that made Lutzen freeze. He recognized it as as belonging to  Isabelle Nue, the human commander of <span class=""bb-i"">Siegmund</span>, one of the destroyers that formed his group of escorts. ""Just a nod and a grin? Even to that much applause? From that many of your colleagues, comrades and superiors? I expected a... a grandiose speech, abundant in self-flattery."" Isabelle pulled up in front of him, wearing a grin. ""You know, your usual routine whenever someone so much as gives you a thumbs up."" She chuckled.

Lutzen suddenly sprang to attention and shifted his arms to clasp his hands together behind him. Partly to maintain appearances, though mostly to hide that growing tear in his sleeve. ""Take what praise you are given humbly, and never be so audacious as to grasp for more. Be satisfied in knowing what you are given is what you have earned."" He recited in an official tone. ""These are all things father taught me."" Lutzen hastily added, giving a nod.

At this, Isabelle merely shook her head. ""Really, Captain? Come now, friend. I've known you a lot longer than that. You really expect me to believe all that?""

""Well, it would have been nice!"" Lutzen replied, giving a sheepish grin and a light shrug. He then sagged with a huff. ""But, alas, you have caught me."" He said in a low tone. ""Zounds, blast and forsooth."" He fakely growled, swinging a fist belonging to the arm with the non-torn sleeve before him a small gesture of mock outrage. Lutzen then rose back up and grinned broadly. ""Ah...  but you know me too well. You know that I -love- to be recognized for my work. I really, really do! It gives me a... warm, even tingly feeling, to know that my close brushes with death in the service of the kingdom, dragging some four thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine other poor souls along for the ride all the while, does not go unappreciated."" 

Isabelle smiled again, then folded her arms as she examined the Larestan more closely. ""Figured. So why so silent, sir? Is something amiss? I'm sure there's time for you to visit the medical facilities if you're genuinely unwell.""

""Pish-posh."" Lutzen waved a hand dismissively. ""I've just been so busy with preparations for the coming operation that I've barely found the time to sleep, is all."" He explained. Having glanced around and found the rest of the officers had long departed the area, he indulged in a rather large yawn. ""Do not be worrying about this supposedly poor captain. He is quite fine, he assures you."" He gestured for Isabelle to follow him as he finally shifted from the column and began strolling down the hall. ""He'll just need to give the transcript of the meeting a few read overs later, is all. He would have liked to have stayed in bed, but it is neither decent nor smart to avoid gatherings of this importance for such trivialities.""  

Isabelle complied and maintained an even pace with Lutzen. ""So, did you recognize many of the officers gathered there today, sir?""

""Oh... a more than a few. Those I didn't, I'm sure I've heard of. It's like a close-knit, but highly dysfunctional family, for the most part. Of particular interest, to my ever so humble self, anyway, was finally encountering Von Ingram, His Majesty's Switchblade. I have often heard her declared to be my opposite. In fact, they have a similar appellation for me, I've heard. 'His Majesty's Sledgehammer', it is."" On that last note, he turned to face Isabelle with an uncertain grin. ""I... am not so sure if this is a good thing, hauhau.""

She shook her head and shrugged. ""Couldn't tell you, Captain. At least you are good at breaking things?""

""Heh, yes. Quite so. Anyway, I had to conceal my grin when I saw Rear Admiral Wander. Very strange fellow indeed, but an excellent host! Just... try not to get too involved with him, I'm warning you.""

A sudden thought occurred to Isabelle. ""Sir, I... I mean no disrespect, but I was wondering how you feel you're treated as a... an abhuman. This was my first high level meeting, so I wasn't sure of what to expect, and I am equally unsure of what I observed.""

Lutzen uttered that peculiar <span class=""bb-i"">hauhauhau</span> of a laugh again. ""No offense taken. There are certainly those that are uneasy around, and even resent, us abhumans, yes. I noticed more than a few scowls, if I am to be honest. But, it cannot be helped. I accept things for what they are. I am sure everyone in that room can agree that the Arians are the worst scum in the galaxy right now anyhow, no? After the war is through, they can turn me into a rug for all I care, but there is more at stake right now."" He paused before a viewport and peered out into the void of space. ""We've ships to explode and worlds to take, after all!""

""Though I think visit to the station's tailor is in order first, sir."" Isabelle added, her eyes on the ever growing split in the sleeve. Lutzen huffed loudly, his ears lowering.</div>"

Logan and four other members of <span class=""bb-i"">The Rooks</span> crew sat around a large crate, cards in hand and the scent of tobacco smoked heavy in the air. The five members of the group looked at each other and then back at their hand assessing both their cards and each other, finally they played their cards or folding their hands. ""Four of a kind."" One of the ensigns said, putting down her hand and grabbing her cigarette from the tray and taking a drag off of it, everyone turned to Logan who still had not put down his cards finally with a flair for the dramatics he put his hand down. ""Straight flush sweetheart, i win."" He said chuckling, and taking a sip from some of the whisky they had stashed away for their game night, with a curse the ensign threw down her cigarette and demanded to see his sleeves. ""You just want to see me strip don't you sweetheart?"" He joked but the joke was lost on the ensign who spoke sharply. ""Take the jacket off you fucking cheat."" She shouted, so Logan obliged and handed it to her so she could shake it down, satisfied with her checking of the jacket she stormed off. ""You got lucky this time Noctura, but next time we are cleaning you out."" She shouted as she left, the others going with her.

When they were clear he pulled his cards out of his boot and swept them back into the deck, then he walked over to a stack of crates where his helmet sat, the voice of the silver lady invaded his ears. ""You know cheating with cards in your boots is one thing, but using me to spy on the opposition and tell you the cards in their hands just takes the sport out of it."" She said, Logan just chuckled and came back at her with a defense of his own. ""Then why did you help me?"" He asked.
""Because you asked me to help you.""
""But you don't have to help me, and so that makes you a accomplice.""
The Ai laughed her laugh sounding like that of bells chiming. ""I was programmed to help you, and are those contraband items I see on that crate? You do know that there are cameras in here and the captains AI is watching right. Also aren't you late for that strategic meeting?"" The AI seemed to nag at him and he tuned everything out until she mentioned strategic meeting. With a curse he threw his helmet into the open cockpit of his fighter and threw on his flight jacket over his uniform and sprinted out of the hangar. He went through the docking tube and the airlock sequence before sprinting through the station.

When he finally reached the meeting it was over and he was out of breath. People were filing out, and the pilot looked at them looking for a face he knew. Finally his eyes settled on one of flight leaders from <span class=""bb-i"">The Rook</span> He stopped her. ""So what happened in there?"" He asked, she just shook her head. ""You're hopeless, I'm not going to bail you out this time. You'll just have to ask the captain and accept your punishment."" She said and left him standing there, with a silent curse Logan set out to find Captain Neion, when he found him he was with Commodore Von Ingram, upon sight of the group he stood at attention and saluted, he knew better than to open his mouth and say something to the officers without them speaking to him so he stayed quiet instead fixing his eyes on Von Ingram and her rather ill fitting jacket. <span class=""bb-i"">""If she wasn't a Commodore the things I would do to her.""</span> He thought, for a second he stopped saluting so he could shake his head and get the thought out  of his head and then as if nothing happened went back to saluting waiting for the order to stand down.</div>"

Celestine.

Captain Gillam Belasko's pearlescent eyes reflected its holographic representation in shimmering bands of pink as he took in the spectacle before the combined leadership of the Second Expeditionary Force. Scarlet continents slowly gyrated about against a smooth sea of blood red ocean. Mountain ranges, lakes, and islands were all depicted in various shades of red. Paired with the satellite Pontius orbiting at a crawl around it, Celestine V appeared innocuous enough as planets went. Such appearances were deceiving, for  this was a fortress world.

An assault on this planet would be a bloody affair indeed. The Royal Armada could expect to face nothing short of an array of mammoth anti-orbital cannons that could cripple a Demnevanni with a single slug. Defending each of these installations would certainly be a layer of smaller yet equally redoubtable anti-air guns, guarded in turn by a teeming host of Arius' abominations. If the Second Expeditionary Force was particularly unlucky, a series of orbital bastion stations would complicate fleet staging whilst making insertions a costly proposition. An unsupported Celestine would be a hard nut to crack; barrages from Pontius' own anti-orbital installations and the dread fleet lurking about the Maalik system elevated the challenge to a new order of magnitude.

Captain Belasko's eyes flitted up to the holographic fortress orbiting about the Orrery as Grand Duke von Ravenstein concluded. From his vantage, Pontius was slowly eclipsed by Celestine as the moon's circuit slowly placed her on the far side of the planet. An assault would <span class=""bb-i"">have</span> to target this hemisphere of the planet, lest it face the murderous barrage of the moon's anti-orbital emplacements. Captain Belasko had devised the first stages of his attack plan.

But Captain Belasko was merely that - a captain. He had no sway over the royal command structure. The Admirals and his Unapproachable Excellency had taken every necessary precaution to ensure an utter massacre in the Maalik System, it seemed. And though Captain Belasko would uphold his solemn duty to carry out his Majesty's will, he had no particular interest in dying to see that will carried out.

As the summit stood in unison for the closing salute, Captain Belasko's eyes fell upon the dais of the Admirals - upon an old friend. There, standing with stoic dignity, was one he knew could hear reason among nonsense.</div>"

He felt uncomfortable in his uniform at the moment, with the buttons firmly clasped to the opposite side of the front clear up to his throat for the strategy briefing. He was also required to wear his cap, which was currently casing his scalp to itch from rubbing against the thin stubble across his head. Harper ignored how uncomfortable he was in his stiff uniform with little more than a grimace, but this look had become second nature to him. The only thing that was out of sorts with his uniform was the missing sleeve on the left side, showing his bionic arm in place of a flesh and bone one.

When he entered the amphitheater, he sat to Von Ingram’s right and took his cap off to set it in front of him. He directed his gaze to the center at the dormant holoprojecter, awaiting the meeting until he heard a noise to his left. He turned his head towards his commanding officer and looked down at her hands. She was fiddling with a switchblade, saying something about wanting to see the object her nickname had come from. With the knife out, Harper couldn't help but examine it himself, wondering why she was named after the instrument of cutthroats and thieves.

He was brought of his thoughts as everyone stood in greeting of the Grand Duke. Harper pulled himself to his feet with little enthusiasm and sat back down happily. As the display came to life in the center, Harper analysed what he could and gave his attention more to what Rho’s role was in the coming invasion. Once he had the information he needed, Harper was ready to leave and get back to his ship so he could unbutton his dress coat to prevent it from choking him further and to plan accordingly with Commodore Von Ingram and the heads of Epsilon. He was one of the first up when the officers were dismissed to leave. When he turned to leave, however, there stood Lieutenant Commander Noctura at attention, late. Narrowing his eyes, Harper looked the pilot up and down before speaking, letting him stay at attention longer than was average.

“At ease, Noctura. Follow me back to The <span class=""bb-i"">Rook</span>. You can explain there why you're late.”

Harper didn't want to spend more time looking “professional” with his jacket choking him ever so slightly more than he had to. After his instructions, Harper filed out of the amphitheater behind the Commodore and back into the hall, his cap back atop his head again.</div>"
3791,War of the Seven Suns (Sci Fi Naval RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75985-war-of-the-seven-suns-sci-fi-naval-rp,['Advanced'],2015-02-09 22:51:00,Alfhedil,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A soft tone rang through the room, bringing the young woman to set her reading glasses down and glance over towards the door. It was still early in the day, and quite a few forms remained incomplete, leading her to answer in a more aggressive tone than she intended. ""Enter."" She said quickly, her eyes narrowing as the door opened and her second-in-command entered hesitantly. For a moment, he simply stood at attention in the doorway, his face absent of emotion while he awaited permission to speak.

""You are aware that I still have paperwork to complete, are you not, Erik?"" She closed the screen on the desk, a soft beep letting her know the work was saved, and she turned her body around to face the uniformed officer. All it took was a single glance of his pressed uniform and polished medallions to let her know that he clearly expected to attend the Grand Duke's meeting between the commanders of the Kingdom's fleet. The barest hint of a smile crossed her lips as she stared him down, her green eyes narrowing slightly as she looked upon him as prey.

""My lady, the bridge received a message from the Grand Duke's staff alerting us of the meeting, I thought I should come with all haste to inform you."" He spoke respectfully, but his tone remained soft, telling of his young age and inexperience in the field. Despite being a decorated officer within the Third Division, Erik Argenon had yet to truly taste battle, and a part of her wondered if it was a good idea to have him at her side when it came to the assault on Celestine V. ""I know of the meeting."" She said dismissively, looking over to where her own dress uniform hung. ""In fact, I chose not to attend because I have that power to do so.""

Getting up, she smoothed the front of her shirt reflexively even though she was in casual dress and began to walk the floor of the room. ""They do not think so, of course, being so wrapped around the Grand Duke's fingers like so many rings. These commanders, I know their kind. Aristocrats, dukes, royalty by any other word."" Her fingers ran along the suit of armor hung on the wall, tracing the paint that marked where she had been shot during the Assault of Hinterpommern. ""I've nearly died at the hands of people like them once in my life, and I do not intend to do so again. We have our orders, and we will follow them. The contract will not be broken, not by meddling aristocrats pretending to be warriors. We are the true warriors, Erik, those who go and put their lives on the line in the heat of battle while they sit pretty within their starships and lay waste to yet more cowards.""

Erik remained silent as Alexandria spoke, his attention focused directly forward as he listened. ""Tell me Erik, how do you think they feel about us?"" She had come up right in front of him, her face inches from his own and all too close for his own comfort. Taking a breath he started to answer, ignoring the slight scent of perfume he swore hung about her. ""From my very brief discussions with our allies, I would hazard a guess they see us as disposable.""

""Disposable."" She spat the word with clear distaste, though it was clear that was the answer she not only expected but knew to be true. ""You're not as useless as I thought. That's exactly right, we are disposable assets to them, just like a weapon only to be fired once. Think otherwise and you will play right into their hands, Erik."" Turning away from him, Alexandria walked back over to sit at her desk, opening the screen once more to start from where she left off. ""That is why I did not attend their meeting, because we are just an asset to the Grand Duke. We will do our part and then we will leave. Make no mistake, though we may be under contract to the Grand Duke, he does not command me or my troops. Celestine V will be handed over to the Kingdom, and these Arians will be put to the sword, but that is where our contract ends. There will be no extra missions, no bonuses, and zero deviations.""

Seeing that she was clearly done with him, Erik snapped a salute and affirmed her orders ""Yes my lady, the contract will be followed to the letter. If I may be dismissed, I will return immediately to the training deck to instruct Broken Star to redouble their regimen."" Waving her hand towards him, she dismissed him and continued on her paperwork. Only when the door slid shut behind Erik did she look up again from her screen, her eyes settling on her armor and the mark on the shoulder of the carapace. For only the briefest moment her emotions got the better of her as she grasped an empty mug next to her and pitched it at the armor. The mug shattered across the surface of the armor and fell to the floor beneath it even as Alexandria suppressed a slight cry of anger. ""Damn you, Sicarius."" She muttered, thinking back to the battle.

""I gave you the chance to end it, and you fucking shot me."" How ironic it had been that the only wound she had suffered during the assault had been at the hands of Sicarius, and that when she had moved the stars themselves to try and bring reason to him, it was her hand that ended his life. It was her fault of course, she was foolish enough to think that her loyalty meant more to him, and so had gone alone to face him. The scene continued to play out in her mind, of the crack of the pistol firing and the suddenness of the bullet impacting her shoulder. Her hand came up immediately, her fingers tightening around the pistol and pulling the trigger as soon as the barrel lined up with his head. Slowly the bullet left the chamber, spiraling towards him as she swore he looked at peace. His lips parted as he spoke a few short words before the bullet shattered his skull. A slight crack shook her from her memories as she loosened her grip on the pen in her hand, looking down to see it damaged beyond use. ""Damn you."" She whispered, tossing the pen down and holding her head in her hands.

<span class=""bb-b"">The Maalik System, in orbit of Cocytus IV, on the bridge of the <span class=""bb-i"">Imperatrix</span>-class battleship <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span>...</span>

To the Uninitiated, the bridge would have been almost silent. The gentle hum of rebreathing systems, the muffled rustling of a Perfecti's vestments, the occasional groan of ancient metal as it adjusted to changing gravitic stress, these were the only noises a reprobate would hear. 

To the Initiate, however, to one who'd been Opened to the noosphere, the bridge was a cacophony of sound. The Call to Obeisance rang out loudly along the holy neuro-networks, marking the hour, and commands from Thearchs and Perfecti to the lesser castes zipped along info-cascades in flashes of blue and violet. Mental Castrati filled the neurosphere with hymns to the Immanences, and behind it all, of course, was the constant, low chatter of the <span class=""bb-i"">Demiurge</span> itself, an endless stream of esoteric wisdom (or nonsense, depending on one's religious persuasion). Very few, even among the Perfecti, could interpret the ship's augurs and counsels, or could truly understand the wishes of the Immanent Divines. Among the elect, only Arius had communed with them as equals. And Arius was gone.

Some of the Thearchs and Prognosticators had interpreted the Emperor Arius' physical destruction at Archangel as his ascension to full communion with the universe. Others postulated that the apparent defeat was a clever contrivance, and that he was still alive, preparing in secret for his triumphant return and war against the heathen Valyrians.

Magister Kalix thought such speculation foolish, though he was careful to mask his thoughts- as well as the pit of despair growing within him ever since Archangel- from prying minds on the noosphere. 

He swept down the center aisle of the bridge, black and gold raiment billowing out behind him. The glowing crimson slits of his optical appendages flashed as he approached the Altar, sending out the appropriate security codes and indications of pious submission.

<span class=""bb-i"">*Kalix*</span> the not-quite-a-voice of the Void Hierophant echoed throughout the noosphere as the Magister approached. The Heirophant sat, if that was the word, behind the bridge's central altar, his flesh-body barely visible amid a tangle of wires and data-feeds rising from his Command Throne like twisting branches from some grotesque robotic tree.

<span class=""bb-i"">*Exalted Superior*</span> said Kalix, bowing.

<span class=""bb-i"">*I am familiar with your wishes, Kalix. It was unnecessary for you to bring your flesh-vessel here*</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">*Of course, Exalted One, but my need is urgent. The course we are taking is dangerous*</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">*Unseemliness. Your continued questions are unseemly.*

*My prognosticators have corroborated my initial Dissent. Ravenstein will invade Celestine. The current attacks in the Charon Belt are a diversion. You must reinforce the orbital defenses at Celestine, Exalted One. Create a trap for Valyrian arrogance.*

*Displeasure is expressed, Kalix. I have taken the Augurs and already communicated the Immanences' wishes on the matter. My fleet shall reinforce the Charon defenses, the Malebrance and escorts will move to Virgilius, where they can reinforce either Celestine or move to support my operations in the Charon Belt.*

*This is dividing our forces moste dangerously, Exalted One. Ravenstein has contracted with mercenaries and made allies of xenos. We-*

*Your line of query is terminated, Kalix. I will permit no more of this. Celestine is most strongly held and will not fall. I have taken measures to ensure it. Our Anansi sellswords are even now moving to reinforce the garrison fleet. Continue to question me and I shall have you assigned a Penance.*</span>

Magister Kalix ceased his data-stream with a bow, turned on his heel, and strode away from the Hierophant's grisly throne. In the dark corners of his mind still closed to the noosphere, he began to plan.

<span class=""bb-b"">The Orbital Fortress Invincible, in orbit of Odros, Valyrian System....</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">After the Briefing...</span>

Unseen, or at least ignored by most, Vice-Admiral Korwitz stalked through the crowd, having had enough of mass of speculation and socialization. He disliked human contact, and the admirality were still too human for his tastes. There were several pressing issues on his mind, and he intended to speak to Ravenstein of them alone, without a flock chattering of halfwits and courtiers buzzing around the room. The Grand Duke had retired to his solar, the count knew, to tinker with plans and play with numbers. His efficiency was in large part why Korwitz held him in such high esteem.

Korwitz arrived at the entrance to ducal solar, an ornately carved wooden door guarded by two Gn'Mok centurions. A quick request to see the Duke was all it took for him to gain access; he was a frequent visitor to this office, frequently consulting and advising his liege in matters of strategy. Entering the chamber, he could see the Duke at his desk glancing over a pile of data slates, a pipe hanging from the corner of his mouth, trickling bluish smoke. The room resembled a gentleman's study more than a warlord's office, filled with bookcases, mounted trophies of old hunts, and even a bar cart. Behind the duke, a window offered a magificent view of the planet Odros below them, continents blackened and scarred from invasion and counter-invasion during the Jihad. The site of the Grand Duke's greatest victory, one of the bloodiest battles in Valyrian history.

The Vice-Admiral advanced, hearing the heavy doors close behind him. The Grand Duke looked up for a brief moment as he saw Korwitz approach.

""My lord,"" Count Korwitz rasped as he saluted, with the harsh voice one has when their vocal cords are replaced by machinery. ""May I have a word? There are some matters I feel I must discuss with you.""

""Korwitz,"" said von Ravenstein, plucking the pipe from his mouth. The Grand Duke's green eyes slid over the half-human admiral; his face remained slack and unreadable. 

""Capturing Celestine conventionally is folly,"" Korwitz said bluntly, his organic eye staring at his superior, his synthetic whirling furiously around, scanning the room. ""Who knows how far the jihadists have indoctrinated its people? If we take this world and leave the inhabitants alive, they will simply be waiting to stab us in the back. I believe that the optimal solution would be to liquidate the native elements from orbit. We have more than enough stock of Agent BE-2335 aboard the Ragnarok for the task, I assure you.""

Ravenstein snorted. ""Not this again,"" he said, raising his eyes to meet the vice-admiral's chilly glare, ""I am not inclined to repeat myself, Korwitz, but let me say this one last time: the issue is not whether you have enough of the godsdamned virus. It's whether I want to kill four billion people outright at the start of this operation. I know such considerations are trivial to you. Do you know for whom they are not? The King. The noisemakers in the Diet. Your direct superior, Rutherford. And most importantly, there are millions of conscripts on that planet that I need to take the rest of the system.""

von Ravenstein pushed himself to his feet, circled his desk and approached the looming cyborg, who stared silently.

""A time may come, Korwitz,"" the Duke said in his low, flat voice ""in the course of this farrago we've been embarked upon, when I will have need of the horrifying weapons you've been-<span class=""bb-i"">illegally-</span> stocking away on that floating tomb of yours, but I will not allow what will be my greatest triumph, the greatest triumph in the history of Valyrian arms since Ovo's Victory and Peniol- to be marred by your bloody quest for vengeance.""

Vice-Admiral Korwitzs bionic eye stopped swirling, and focused on Ravenstein. ""

This soft-heartedness will cost us many lives for centuries to come,"" he rasped, ""but of course... it is your decision to make... efficient or no. However, the presence of xenos in our expedition is not only a vulgar taint in what will be the great crusade of humanity, but it is also irresponsible. These... mercenaries will betray us, I can promise you that. Why wait for the inevitable? The coming battle will be chaotic. Who would question it if, in the mayhem, perhaps some stray shots were to destroy their ships?""

The Grand Duke exhaled a twisting cloud of bluish smoke through his nose, which hung around his head like a spectral halo. He walked over the to bar cart and poured himself a Xossan brandy, neat. ""You don't drink, do you Korwitz? I don't understand abstainers.""

The Vice-Admiral glanced at the cup with disdain. ""Drinking is addiction, addiction is weakness."" He returned his gaze to the Duke, replying chillingly: ""And weakness must be purged, wherever it is found.""

""Korwitz,"" said Ravenstein in his placid, quiet tones. He spoke like a man commenting on the weather, ""If your rage becomes a liability to my operations, I will purge you without blinking. I have sent greater men to the airlock.""

Ravenstein looked down at his glass and back at the glowering, half-human officer. He took another slow sip.

""Half the command staff on this fortress despises you, and the other half are terrified of you. Rutherford, it will interest you to learn if you haven't already, gets a tidy pension from the Office Unspoken to keep tabs on the likes of you and I, and a sprinkling of other ambitious and clever officers of whom His Majesty is frightened. I don't despise you, Korwitz, and I certainly have nothing to fear from you. That makes me the closest thing to a friend I think you're likely to have in this life. You'll notice that I've let you keep your clandestine stockpiles of virus-bombs, and the rather more exotic horrors you have stowed away. If you are ever going to get the vengeance you seek, it will be at my side, not by disrupting my war.""

""My Lord,"" Count Korwitz replied in his usual cold, dead voice, ""Of course I submit to your, ah ,wisdom. If that's all, I must ensure that the Ragnarok is ready for the invasion. By your leave, sire.""

It is Imperial Year 3,506, exactly one millennium after the Sacking of Almata by the Rival Claimants and the final destruction of the Arcturian Empire. 

The galaxy has known a millennium of chaos and darkness as astro-goths, pirate bands and slaver-kings have ravaged the systems of the dead Empire, carving out petty fiefdoms for themselves. Outposts of the old order have struggled to survive amid the general anarchy, fending off barbarian threats or bribing their would-be assailants in exchange for protection. Alien peoples, made vengeful by centuries of humano-centric oppression in the old Empire, have risen up against their former masters and founded space-faring nations of their own amid the general chaos. 

The Dark Ages, however, are coming to an end. The Kingdom of Far Valyrius, once a minor Arcturian client state spanning three systems in a backwater sector, weathered the collapse of the old order uniquely well, thanks in large part to the far sighted strategy of King Odyssius II, who welcomed the remnants of the Loyalist Imperial fleet into his system after the death of the final Emperor at the hands of the Rival Claimants. Well protected by its isolated location and powerful Imperial fleet, huge ships-of-the-line carefully husbanded over the centuries, the Kingdom managed to prosper even as the galaxy burned around it. 

One year ago, the Kingdom emerged victorious from a decades-long struggle against the barbarian-emperor Arius, whose fleet was crushed by King Odyssius XVII at the Battle of Archangel. Freed for the first time in centuries from impending external threats, His Grace the King declared a Reconquest of four neighboring systems, inaugurating the War of Seven Suns. 

You are a captain in His Majesty's Navy, the commander of a cruiser in the Second Royal Expeditionary Force tasked with securing the subspace lanes and orbits of the Maalik system so that the Royal Armies can take the planets in the name of the King. 

Your ship is millenia old. A veteran of hundreds of battles. Between 1-7 km in length, it is home to thousands of sailors, marines, soldiers and officers. It hosts to a powerful and ancient AI known as a Semi-Sentience, and is armed with an array of weaponry capable of leveling cities and turning entire armies to cinders.

<span class=""bb-b"">The RP....</span>

Welcome! Above is a basic overview of the universe in which this RP will be set.

This RP will be a bit of a mix btwn a sci-fi military RP and a game of political intrigue. The setting is inspired by Dune and 40K, the European dark ages, Napoleonic naval battles.

Your primary character will be a captain of a huge naval ship taking part in King Odyssius' Reconquest. Other character types (politicians, military personnel, mercenaries...basically, whatever you can think of)  are absolutely, 100% <span class=""bb-u"">allowed</span> and RPers are free to create as many characters as they think they can handle. As hinted at above, each ship has its own unique AI and personality. Most players will basically be RPing as an entire ship, a society of thousands (or more) taking part in the larger drama of this sci-fi war. See below for more details about ship sizes, classes, and weaponry, but each ship is highly customizable and will be created as part of your character creation.

<span class=""bb-u"">General Notes and Rules:</span>

1. A major objective of this RP will be worldbuilding. I've set the ground work of the society we'll be operating in, but fleshing it out with everyone's ideas on galactic history, geography and detail will, I hope, be a fun collaborative endeavor. The Kingdom of Far Valyrius is a highly complex feudal society, by no means a unified highly centralized state, so there is plenty of room for internal divisions. I invite people not only to create characters, but to contribute to the lore and history of the universe in which we are operating. You'll see below that I've left room for some player-created worldbuilding in the Setting section.

2. I am a fairly lax GM and am always open to new ideas, suggestions and criticism, but ultimately I am the GM, and my rules are <span class=""bb-i"">the</span> rules, period. I don't anticipate having to put my foot down on anything, but if I do, please respect my decision. 

3. In what follows you'll find a great deal of names, implied events, unexplained terms, etc etc. Please do not feel as though I expect you to ask me what everything means, most of the stuff I've jotted down is merely meant as a starting point for you to run with- so run with it! Make up cool stuff! If anything drastically requires alteration I will let you know- but I hope everyone feels free to expand on the bones of the world that I've given. Additionally, this OOC is a little all over the place and incomplete. Please don't feel overwhelmed or like you need to memorize everything (or anything) here in order to participate. And please dont hesitate to make constructive criticisms or ask questions!

System: Valyrius
Local govt: Direct rule by the King.
Desc: A roughly earth-sized moon in orbit of the gas giant Far Valyrius, noted for its ancient cities and dense fungus-jungles. The capital city of the Kingdom is High Sepulchrave.

Planet: Far Valyrius
System: Valyrius
Local govt: Feudal holdings by various Noble Houses, most notably House Ravenstein and House Hooke.
Desc: A huge gas giant orbited by Throne, Far Valyrius is home to many Imperial era gas-mining installations and cloud-cities.

Planet: Odros
System: Valyrius
Local govt: Formerly republican, currently direct military rule by Royal Navy.
Desc: Once a fertile agri-world, Odros was subjected to several invasions and counter invasions during the Arian Wars between the Kingdom of Valyrius and the barbarian Emperor Arius. It is now an irradiated wasteland in the early stages of environmental reclamation by the Kingdom. In orbit of Odros are innumerable fortresses and the Royal Navy Yards, and it is the primary base of His Grace's Navy.

Planet: Zanxi
System: Aryon
Local govt: Dictatorship, colonial administration
Desc: Nyrkin Hiveworld. Zanxi hosts an immense Nyrkin population and a growing contingent of human, Introgg, and Gn'Mok colonists from the Kingdom. Zanxi is governed by Overbaron van Vaw, a cultured and humane xenos-lover who was named Baron of the planet after his highly successful suppression of the Swarm Revolts. Under him is a puppet government formed of the Nyrkin priestly castes.

Planet: Adriatus
System: Vos
Local govt: Feudal rule, majority of world divided between the Barony of Ingram, the Grand Duchy of Kans, and various vassal states. 
Desc: Adriatus is a temperate world of roughly earth size and temperament dominated by four large continents. Unlike the Earth that it seemingly resembles (thanks to the miracles of terraforming) Adriatus has far less surface water than earth with the small oceans dividing the continents covering only about 40% of the surface. Most continents are covered by forests of gigantic iron-maple trees. The trees are known for more than their titanic proportions, the iron-maple is so named because of its incredible strength which makes it a popular supplementary building material especially for the homes and furniture of the wealthy and well to do. A native race of arborial sophonts known as the Podrotha live deep inside the iron-maple forests. A paleolithic society the Podrotha have shunned human contact as best as they can, fleeing deeper and deeper into the forests when humans encroach on their territory. Some contact has been established among their scattered tribes and Poldrotha are not too uncommonly found as manual laborers or servants of the wealthy in any large city. 

Planet: Plentiful Dawn
System: Horizon
Desc: A protectorate of the Kingdom of Far Valyrius in the outlying Horizon System, Plentiful Dawn is a formidable fortress world that has withstood centuries of barbarian attacks, preserving much of the old Imperial culture. It swore fealty to the Valyrian kingdom shortly before the start of the Arian Jihad.

Planet: (players are encouraged to make up their own planets in the Vos and Aryon Systems, including system capitals. Two more planets can also be added to the Valyrian system)</div></div>
<span class=""bb-u"">Xenos Species of the Kingdom of Far Valyrius</span>

Nyrkin: Hive-based insectiod race with innumerable bio-forms. Fast breeding, generally less intelligent than humans and extremely susceptible to collectivist politics and religious messianism thanks to the traumatic destruction of their Hive Mind by the Arcturus Empire centuries ago. Most populous on their native Zanxi, they are very common throughout the Kingdom, usually as an industrial underclass, and are used on some planets as slave labor or slave soldiers. They are heavily represented in the Royal Army as auxiliary light infantry.

Gn'Mok: Hulking humanoid reptilians who serve as elite mercenaries in the Royal Marines. They are a proud, martial race who utilize energy shields and close quarter weaponry to great effect. They excel as special forces units and boarding parties. Some say they are the result of attempts by the old empire to breed a race of loyal super soldiers. They have served the Kingdom as mercenaries for centuries, after King Alessio welcomed their space hulks into the Kingdom and offered them safe harbor and protection in exchange for military service. [think Halo elites + Greek Hoplites + Protoss]

The Poldratha: The Poldratha are tree-dwelling pseudomammals native to the forests of Adriatus. The Poldratha have a relatively standard arrangement of two arms and two legs however their arms are bifurcated at the elbow with two forearms and hands on each arm. Males of the species are a full head shorter on average and possess a webbed membrane stretching from one of their forearms down to the leg, this allows them the ability to glide from tree to tree to a limited degree (Adriatus's gravity is only slightly lower than earth's so it really just slows the fall) whereas females posses much greater strength. They are a paleolithic culture, capable of making tools out of stone, bone, and other natural materials. Their race has a massive gender imbalance with most attempts at estimating their population putting it at three females to one male. Because of this their societies tend to be matriarchal with males considered prized and rare commodities and even a reason to go to war with another tribe. 

- players are encouraged to make up their own xenos races

<span class=""bb-u"">Notable Factions, Houses, Guilds and Political Parties:</span>

The Office Unspoken: Royal secret police.

The One Voice: monohumanist authoritarian political party calling for the enslavement of xenos, the abolition of the aristocracy and the Valyrian Diet, and the replacement of the monarch with an autocratic Emperor.

Shouters: monohumanist terrorist group, outlawed, some affiliation with One Voice politicians.

Selfless Tendencies: political party advocating for full xenos political emancipation.

Great House Ravenstein of Lynz: great house ruling large, populous holdings within the breathable zones of the Far Valyrian atmosphere. Extremely wealthy and historic rivals of the Royal House. Led by Grand Duke Konrad von Ravenstein.

Great House Hooke of New Olms: rules large holdings with the Far Valyrian atmosphere, less wealthy and powerful than House Ravenstein, whom they view as rivals. Strong allies of the Royal House. Led by Grand Duchess Alexia Hooke. 

The Venerable Path: decentralized religion of much of the aristocracy which includes the veneration of ancestors, historic Imperial heroes and saints, and the Numinous Legislation, a code of honor taken to be part of the fabric of the universe.

Note: Players can select or create ships from classes strikecraft-HSR3.  

Also Note: I will add visuals and descriptions to the below if the group really finds them necessary or helpful. Most ship models are based off of sketches of the Chaos vessels from 40K...but without all the, you know, chaosy 40K stuff.

<span class=""bb-b"">Strikecraft</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Archangel Fighter-Bomber:</span> The pinnacle of Valyrian engineering, it's a durable craft that is capable of taking and dealing damage greater than most strikecraft. An agile attack craft, the Archangel sacrifices some speed in exchange for it heavy armor. It is equipped with two twin cannon systems that fire heavy shredder rounds containing flechettes, which act like flak rounds to fighter craft- shredding wings and equipment with ease. The Archangel is also fit with a missile rack under it's wings. It can either fit a rack of 8 scorpion anti-fighter missiles under each wing or 4 torpedoes under each wing that are capable of dealing with larger craft and causing substantial damage to hulls. It can also be outfitted with  3 ""Mole"" torpedoes that dig through ship hulls and detonate either upon pilot/AI command or when it chews through an significant amount of hull. The archangel can be fitted with two low yield tactical warheads for gemajor dama, but this is only used as a last resort because the attack craft generally can't escape the emp yield of the warhead in time.

- (player-developed ship classes)

<span class=""bb-b"">HSR1</span>

Small ships designed for a number of roles, HSR1 ships tend to be fast, lightly armored, and moderately armed. These ships are best suited for harrying undefended positions or for approach maneuvers in actual engagements. HSR1 ships are largely used supporting HSR2 and 3 vessels, as they straddle the line between being too small and insignificant a target relative to larger ships. HSR1 ships can have dimensions of about 100 to 200 meters and can be expected to be capable of carrying dozens of human-sized passengers.

<span class=""bb-u"">Hoarfrost Class Corvette</span> The Hoarfrost is an incredibly numerous vessel used for system defense and light screening work. Coming in at 200 meters in length it is on the larger end of ships in its tier yet still not particularly large by Galactic standards. The Hoarfrost is armed with a battery of heavy (for its size) laser cannons as well as two anti-ship torpedo tubes in the bow. Their lasers are effective against strike craft and other HSR1 ships and at close range can even batter larger ships, though being that close often spells the end for these fragile ships. In order to power their high performance drives as well as the shield arrays that make the vessel surprisingly durable for its size, the strategic range of the Hoarfrost is incredibly small, often times they are launched from cruiser scale tender vessels who ferry them to and from the battlefield. 

<span class=""bb-b"">HSR2</span>

These ships are largely considered the standard escort or ""screening"" ships. They are effective at countering various types of hostile units and tactics, capable of shooting down missiles, strikecraft, torpedoes, and smaller ships. Large enough to be able to leverage higher levels of firepower against enemies, HSR2 ships can engage and destroy HSR1 through HSR3 ships when utilized properly. A squadron of HSR2 ships must be engaged with care by ships of all classes. The strength of an HSR2 is its relatively cheap cost to produce and combat versatility. A HSR2 ship can be expected to have a dimension ranging from 500 to 900 meters and the capacity to carry hundreds of human sized passengers. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Carcharadon Class Fleet Destroyer:</span> a stable workhorse of the Royal navy. At 600 meters in length they err on the smaller side of HSR 2 tier ships. Nevertheless the Carcharadon class are vicious hunter killers and powerful screeners. The drives of the ship are proportionally massive, giving them truly outlandish acceleration with an impressive maneuverability to boot. A battery of heavy Gauss cannons on the dorsal and ventral sections serve as the primary armament of the Carcharadon class, the heavy coil guns are capable of causing serious harm to enemy ships in all arcs and are especially effective against other HSR 2 class ships. Half a dozen torpedo tubes in the prow round out its firepower and give squadrons the ability to threaten much larger vessels than themselves. The broadsides of the Carcharadon are dedicated entirely to bank upon bank of missile launchers which make them potent fly swatters for strike craft. The launchers can also fire nuclear missiles, though the short range of the smaller missiles limits them normally to use in surface pacification operations or acts of total desperation. Capping off the vessel is an advanced ECM and ECCM suite, similar to the kind used in the larger Sotha class cruisers.

<span class=""bb-u"">Archduke Uthol Class Frigate:</span> At 900 m in length, the Uthol class is a large frigate bristling with light weaponry and point defense systems. The Archduke Uthol trades speed for firepower and shielding. It is designed to keep pace with cruiser and capital class ships as an anti-strike craft, anti-destroyer flak ship. It's weapons make it a threat to massed strike craft and HSR1-2 class ships, and variants are often deployed in an anti-destroyer role. It is atmosphere capable, and used to support planetary invasions with precision bombardments. Thanks to superior shielding, Uthol-Class can take hits from ships above its size class, but its damage potential against larger targets is minimal.

<span class=""bb-u"">Gothren Class Artillery Vessel:</span> Variants can measure between 1 and 1.5 km in length, and different models are armed with gauss, plasma, solid torpedo or laser munitions. Fast, and well sheilded the Gothren-Class is used in kill teams of three to six designed to concentrate fire on enemy capital vessels and fortifications. They are exceptionally dangerous vessels to ships of their own size designation and greater, and can be used to great effect against orbital defenses and planetary targets. A lack of secondary weapons systems, however, leaves them vulnerable to strike craft and to enemy ships who manage to close with them. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Neloth Class Escort Cruiser:</span> A 1km long light cruiser of ancient design, the Neloth Class is a well rounded escort vessel that doubles as a light carrier. The Neloth's lack of specialization is its strength and weakness, since its twenty heavy laser batteries lack the punch capable of threatening the shields of heavier ships, and the Neloth's hangar capacity is limited. Large and heavily shielded, the Neloth-Class' size is disproportional to its damage potential and strike craft capacity, but it is useful as a troop carrier and command ship for small task forces. 

- (player-developed ship classes)

<span class=""bb-b"">HSR3</span>

The backbone of the navy. They are a legitimate threat to HSR4 and 5 ships. Their strength lies in their massive projection capabilities, relative maneuverability, and ease of deployment; however, their relatively light durability and inability to handle HSR0 and 1 squadrons offsets their strengths. A HSR3's dimensions can be expected to range from 2700 to 3600 meters and it can typically carry up to a few thousand human sized passengers. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Sotha Class Support Cruiser:</span> At 2 km long, the Sotha-Class is relatively small for a cruiser. It is, however, an important part of any fleet since it is equipped with advanced computer systems which allow it to serve the fleet in a command-and-control capacity, providing crucial targetting coordination, long range intelligence, ECM, ECCM, and anti-missle, anti-strike craft, anti-frigate and anti-destroyer support. The Sotha Class is heavily armored and shielded, meant to accompany its heavier brethren into the thick of combat, but trades in heavy weapon systems for point defenses suited to taking out enemy strikecraft swarms, frigates, destroyers, and missiles. The Sotha-Class comes with modest hangar capacity and so provides its own fighter screen. It is an ideal support ship for planetary invasions.

<span class=""bb-u"">Aryon Class Cruiser:</span> a 3.5 km battlecruiser built around its four, flank mounted back-breaker cannon batteries which- though designed to serve as precision, long range artillery- are useful at all ranges. The Aryon Class is relatively small (as royal battlecruisers go), and is usually used by commanders to engage the enemy at range and to follow the more heavily shielded and armored Dratha and Demnevanni-class cruisers in the line of battle, finishing off distracted, engaged or wounded enemy ships with its powerful guns.

The Aryon Class lacks significant hanger space, and depends on escorts to provide a strike craft screen, but is otherwise a well rounded battlecruiser, with plenty of point defense and secondary weapons systems and a shield array that compares favorably with other ships of its size. The Aryon Class is the ship of choice to serve as the flagship of small to medium sized task forces and is a workhorse of the Royal Navy. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Indoril Class Strike Cruiser:</span> a heavy modification of the existing Aryon design. The first Indorils were made from Aryons pulled from front line service due to damage too extreme to be simply repaired. Instead of being broken up, some of the vessels were heavily refit into a class of super-heavy raiders. Two of the Aryon's back-breaker batteries are replaced with larger hangar bays and more reaction mass allowing for greater strategic range and a worthwhile strike craft compliment. The removal of the massive guns also frees up reactor energy for an additional battery of plasma artillery along each broadside.

<span class=""bb-u"">Demnevanni Class Heavy Carrier:</span> a heavy archeo-model carrier-cruiser. 4 km in length, the Demnevanni-Class can hold swarms of strike craft and launch them into battle with great rapidity. Notwithstanding its role as a carrier, the Demnevanni class is built to act as a ship of the line, and boasts a formidable armor, shielding arrays and batteries of cannon, and it is more than capable of holding its own in direct-fire engagements against other ships of its class.

Thanks the enormous bulkiness of a carrier designed to trade punches with enemy ships, the Demnevanni Class is a big target, and has famously inadequate engine systems. It is a tremendously clumsy ship to maneuver properly, depending wholly on escorts and its strike craft screen to defend it from artillery, strike craft swarms and destroyers. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Fisher-class Battlecruiser</span> a ship that straddles the line between HRS3 and HRS4 (though is often considered HRS3 for convenience.) The Fisher-class were intended to be close-quarters brawlers and have most of their armament situated in broadside mounts. A balance of suitable protection and speed was aimed for in order to help it close in on the enemy and outlast them. Similar to the Dratha-class, which is in some respects its big brother, the Fisher-class has next to no hangar capacity. Beneath its three decks of broadside batteries are port and starboard facing torpedo tubes, as opposed to the more commonly encountered forward facing ones. Additionally, it has several center-line mounted turrets for medium range combat

- (player-developed ship classes)

<span class=""bb-b"">HSR4</span>

Big, tough, and mean, HSR4 ships are the heavy hitters of any navy. They boast unparalleled projection capabilities and can obliterate smaller ships with ease. They tend to be less maneuverable than smaller ships, but a single strikecraft isn't going to make a miracle torpedo shot through an exhaust port. The fact that these ships bristle with with a considerable amount of secondary weapons and defenses tend to deter half-hearted attacks on a HSR4 ship. Forming the core of any navy, these ships are true capital ships that can be expected to take out a significant portion of any attacking force. The strength of any HSR4 ship lies in its nearly unrivaled firepower and defenses. They must be properly supported by other ships, however, as large swarms of smaller ships can destroy a HSR4 ship. A HSR4 ship's dimensions can be expected to range from 5500 to 10000 meters and it can carry human sized passengers in the high thousands. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Dratha Class Battlecruiser:</span> A true ship of the line, the Dratha class is a 5.5 km man o' war  built to close with the enemy and eviscerate them with crippling firepower. Though dangerous at range, the Dratha class is the king of medium to close range combat, fielding an array of heavy laser and solid ordinance cannons and six forward mounted heavy torpedo launchers, along with innummerable smaller weapons batteries. In addition to formidable shields and armor, the Dratha class is equipped with powerful engine systems which allow it to maneuver with precision, at speed. The Dratha class lacks practically any hangar capacity, and depends on carriers to provide it with a fighter screen. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Dagoth Class Battleship:</span> he ultimate ship-of-the-line, the Dagoth-Class is a fearsome, 10 km long heavy battleship designed to engage the enemy at all ranges with its powerful array of solid, plasma, laser and torpedo munitions. Heavily armored and shielded, sporting innumerable point defense and anti-strike craft batteries, the Dagoth-Class' only weakness is its slow speed and relatively limited hangar capacity. It can operate as a one-ship fleet, but excels as the flagship of a battlegroup.

The Royal Navy fields only one Dagoth-Class, the mighty <span class=""bb-i"">Archduke Leopold</span>, a veteran of innumerable battles.

<span class=""bb-u"">Ordinator Class Battlecarrier:</span> is a 10km long fusion of a battleship and a heavy carrier, meant to serve as the flagship of a major taskforce. An excellent design, the Ordinator-Class is capable of launching hordes of strike craft directly into combat while dealing major damage. While it lacks the sheer broadside power and armor rating of the Dagoth-Class, the Ordinator is a ship of many strengths without any real weaknesses.

The Royal Navy currently fields one Ordinator Class, the legendary battleship <span class=""bb-i"">Ancestral Right</span>, which serves as the King's flagship.

Race: Human

Augmentics: Nothing beyond the basic interface augments required of officers, she finds the concept of human augmentation repugnant.

Rank: Commodore in His Unapproachable Majesty's Royal Navy; Commander of Special Task Squadron Rho; Baroness, by succession, of the Barony of Ingram

Alias: His Majesty's Switchblade (earned during the Jihad for her unconventional, and some would say illegal, raids on barbarian forces)

Physical Description: <a href=""http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/124/d/d/Pirate_by_PapaNinja.jpg"">Yekaterina</a> is a buxom human female in her early thirties. Her features are a mixture of her ancient Terran ancestors who hailed from Eastern Europe and East Asia. She has chin length black hair and light brown eyes. She is of slightly above average height for women.

Personality: Yekaterina is a bit of a contradictory character when it comes to the accepted image of aristocracy. She shares the haughtiness and sense of superiority towards all around her that comes with being highborn, but that is where the image begins to fall apart. She has all of the tact as a sledgehammer and is very forward about her opinions whether they were asked for or not. She respects her superiors though finds it difficult to hide her disdain for orders or individuals whom she finds incompetent or faulty. While many of her peers find her aggravating or crude, what they can all agree on is that she holds herself less like a woman and more like a force of nature. The cult of personality she has cultivated amongst her crew and the fleet at large through her exploits and laid back demeanor seem to have gone to her head, she has adopted the larger than life persona of a pirate queen(not that she would ever call herself a queen as if she were equal to His Majesty) that follows her wherever she goes. She considers herself to be one of the only members of the fleet who is willing to do anything it takes to see the Kingdom of Far Valyrius and His Grace Odyssius XVII reach their rightful place in the sun.

Personal History: To make an exceedingly long story short, Yekaterina made her name as a raider captain deep in Arian territory during the Jihad. After the Techno-barbarians began to christen her and her crew vile pirates she decided to embrace the persona, adopting a piratical costume and flying a jolly roger.  (not an actual flag, but it shows up on most transmissions between ships or exchanges of data) After the Jihad's end she had racked up enough commendations and kills as to see her be given the rank of Commodore (being nobility also helped) and given the new task of commanding an entire squadron of raider vessels for the Reconquest campaign. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personal History The long version"" type=""button"">Personal History The long version [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Yekaterina's young life was by and large what one would expect of the heir to a noble family. Groomed to take over rule of the Barony of Ingram located on the Kingdom world of Adriatus in the Vos system, she was pampered as a little girl and taught by the best tutors money could buy. Her story did not come into its own until she enrolled in the Royal Naval Academy at the onset of the Arian Jihad. There she was found to be gifted in the arts of tactics and command. She was quickly chosen as her class's group leader through her electric personality and keen mind. It was here that her rebellious streak began to show itself. During wargames and tactical exercises she gained the ire of her instructors for bending and exploiting the rules instead of following established doctrines. She was nearly expelled from the academy for an act of insubordination, though the heavy pleas of her family ensured she was heavily reprimanded instead. Once she graduated (barely despite such a strong start) she was first assigned as third officer aboard the <span class=""bb-i"">Gothren</span> Class ship <span class=""bb-i"">Volcano</span>. Her rise through the ranks could only be described as meteoric, a stray shot from a transhumanist vessel managed to pierce through the bridge of the vessel killing the Captain as well as a majority of the bridge staff. Yekaterina suddenly found herself in command of the crippled artillery ship from the auxiliary bridge. 

Her heroic command of the <span class=""bb-i"">Volcano</span> for the duration of the battle saw her awarded the Navy Cross and promoted to the rank of Commander. From there she would be given her first command, the <span class=""bb-i"">Neloth class</span> escort cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span>. The <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> was given a mission to destabilize the actions of the Transhumanist menace. Striking deep into territory held by the Techno-barbarian warlord Arius their goal was to simply keep the Jihad fleets' hands full. Striking quickly from subspace on unprotected supply barges and troop ships that thought they were safe so far behind the front. The lighter weapons of the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> suited these lightning raids on enemy infrastructure. Soon the Techno-barbarian communications networks were filled with talk of the damnable Valyrian pirate who was raising hell all over the domain of Arius. The event that brought the name Yekaterina Tsukishima Alexandrovna Von Ingram  (quite the mouthful) to the attention of even the royal family itself was the destruction of the mobile shipyard <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span>. The massive vessel was an ancient relic predating the fall of the Arcturian Empire was little more than a massive automated factory complex slaved to equally massive drives. Constantly moving from place to place leaving an endless stream of war materiel in its wake, <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> was one of the most hotly sought after targets for Fleet command because of how elusive it was. There is little to say about the attack on <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> itself, it was more of a happy accident that brought it and the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> into the same region of space at the same time. Intending to attack what she thought was a just another convoy, she dropped out of subpspace only to be greeted by the battleship sized mass of machinery that had eluded her and the rest of the Royal Navy for so long. While it may have been massive, few people think to armor factories, and the <span class=""bb-i"">Guildenstern</span> was no exception. In classic form she was in and out before the local forces even noticed. 

A promotion to full captain and a new command were in order for the returning Yekaterina, not to mention a host of medals and commendations to add to her growing collection. Her gift for her glorious victory was the command of the <span class=""bb-i"">Indoril</span> class Strike Cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span>. A proper capital ship to call her own, now Captain Alexandrovna was once again given orders to raise havoc deep behind enemy lines. The bigger guns and greater range of the Indoril class over her previous charges meant that the escort ships that once turned her away from her prey were just as vulnerable as their defenseless charges. The <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur</span> would be the ship she would command for the remainder of the Jihad as she continued to launch deadly raids on the soft underbelly of the enemy, every ship her actions forced into convoy escort work bringing the war that much closer to a close.

When the dust finally settled Yekaterina was promoted once more to the rank of Commodore and assigned to the Second Royal Expeditionary Force whose mission was the reconquest of territory that rightfully belonged to the Crown of Far Valyrius. the <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span> would become her flagship as commander of Special Task Squadron Rho, a squadron whose mission was what Yekaterina did best: sow chaos. A mixed force built for asymmetric strikes against the areas the enemy is weakest, Special Task Squadron Rho is not meant to take part in proper fleet conflicts, in fact if it does its job properly those conflicts may not even occur.</div></div>

I may have gone crazy on the personal history part. Yeah, think I totally did.

Ship Name: <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span>
Ship Type: Indoril class strike cruiser (Aryon class variant)
Semi-Sentience Profile: WIP
 Ship Details/History: The Indoril class are not a unique class of ship but are instead a heavy modification of the existing Aryon design. The first Indorils were made from Aryons pulled from front line service due to damage too extreme to be simply repaired. Instead of being broken up, some of the more better off vessels were heavily refit into a class of super-heavy raiders

Captained by Yekaterina's former first mate, Commander Wolfram De Ruger. The venerable ship serves as the nervous center of the <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur's</span> escort compliment. Captained by her former first mate the <span class=""bb-i"">Rosenkreuz</span> is a ship that Commodore Alexandrovna knows she can count on at all times. Its most recent refit saw the removal of of the troop bays in favor of keel mounted torpedo tubes.

The four ships of DesRon 43 make up the remainder of the <span class=""bb-i"">Decatur's</span> escort vessels. The incredibly fast vessels provide a much needed PD screen with their laser batteries and together can threaten ships of HSR3 or above with their Gauss batteries and torpedoes.</div></div>
- primary weapons/fleet function: The Decatur was one of the first Indoril class ships 'built' during the Jihad and therefore is less standardized than later additions to the line. Two of the Back-breaker cannons were removed entirely from the ship, and were instead replaced with larger hangar bays and more reaction mass allowing for greater strategic range and a worthwhile strike craft compliment. The removal of the massive guns also freed up reactor energy for an additional battery of plasma artillery along each broadside.

 - marine contingent details: Much of the marine compliment of the John P. Decatur are fearsome Gn'Mok shock troopers in order to further the Shock and Awe value of the ship. With several thousand marines at its disposal the Decatur can even launch raids onto terrestrial targets if simple orbital bombardment is out of the question.

- strikecraft contingent details: The <span class=""bb-i"">John P. Decatur</span> carries a compliment of fifty Archangel fighter bombers, a dozen Impi assault shuttles, and a trio of cutters.

 Wasn't sure if these ships are full 40k tier huge populations so I just cut the population of an Imperial cruiser of this size in half as a solid guestimate then dropped it some more. </div>"

On top of the usual pirate groups, it was a place of mercenaries, a place where Assassins could be found and bought easily, a place where a smuggler would offer their ship and their services to the highest bidder. The Shoals are a small part of the galaxy where most of the planets in the system are so heavily urbanized that surplus populations have to live in orbiting space stations, giant floating cities in space where the laws are as loose as the women, pirates controlled these space stations and planets with an iron fist, acting more like crime families than pirates. Often times smuggling things such as slaves,narcotics,and weapons to anyone who would pay for them, extorting businesses and trade conglomerates either by threats of force or taking hostages, and of course stealing ships to add to their groups, these were common things among the pirate way of life in the Shoals.

One man dared to change that, he pulled himself from the gutter of one of these planets and worked his way up until he was the leader of a pirate group known as the Lords of Ruin. This man was Kain Havarr, Kain was a highly intelligent man who relied on daring he dared to question why the other groups weren't doing more, he saw that combined they would be a nigh unstoppable and that's what he did. He gathered his men and turned on a few pirate groups taking them over and replacing them with his own leaders, other pirate groups joined willingly and so thus their leaders weren't replaced. His dream was a group of pirates that could rival the techno-barbarians in way of technology, and the Valyrians in ways of strength.

Eventually Kain had a group of pirates ready to follow him into the gates of hell comprised of over six different human and non human pirate groups, an empire ready to take over the rest of the Shoals and conquer the rest of the galaxy. But Kain at this time set his eyes on conquering someone else, his eyes fell on the wife of another pirate captain and the two began a affair in secret. Every moment he had alone was spent with the woman, eventually the result of said affair was Kain's first son Logan, born in the med-bay of Kain's flagship.

As soon as the boy was old enough Kain had the boy taught things he would need, training with weapons and hand to hand combat, the use of ships and how to properly command them, tactics, and basic politics so eventually the boy could take over as Kain's heir to the empire that would span the stars. As years went on Kain spent more time with Logan's mother and sired 4 more childeren from her, and six more from various other women bringing Logan's family up to Eleven. And as they grew older all of them were ready to fight for their father even if it meant their deaths.

At age 14 Logan was put in charge of his first ship a frigate, Logan hated it he craved speed and adrenaline. He spoke to his father about this and his father introduced him to a old man named Red, a fighter ace and small craft pilot who was considered the best fighter pilot in the entire Shoals system. Red agreed to teach the boy and so they started with heavier small craft Logan first learned to fly bombers and shuttle craft which bored him to tears but helped prepare him for what he really wanted to fly. The starfighter. The speed, the power, all in one little craft gave Logan the adventure and rush he was looking for and he quickly mastered the craft in time for his first battle against a group of pirates who resisted Kain's rule. It was at this battle that Logan proved his skills to the group and most of all his father, he gained Ace status in his first battle shooting down seven enemy star fighters and destroying an enemy cruiser. This earned him the nickname ""Child Warrior"" among the other pilots and the name stuck for sometime.

Years went by and eventually Kain managed to reunite the Shoals under his banner. The way he did it and the way he treated the population made Kain a hero to most of the system, but he was more-so a hero to his children who revered him like he was a god. And just like Logan as they grew older they were given ships of their own to command while the younger ones stayed with Kain on his flagship. With his children at his side and a massive systems worth of pirates at his back Kain set his sights on the Valyrians. He waited for the perfect oppertunity and it came in the form of the  Arcturian Jihad taking advantage of this Kain and his fleet set out and took both sides by surprise attacking planets with a minimal fleet presence and plundering their resources and taking slaves.

Neither side were prepared for the Dolorians, so they won many victories even though they were small victories and were barely worth noticing to both of the bigger groups, during one raid on the Arcturian's Logan lost one of his siblings their ship being destroyed and this drove Kain into grief and fury, he turned his fleet on the Arcturians and began to attack just them taking out small fleets and planets which in many ways managed to help the Valyrians turn the war around with the Arcturians unable to call on these small fleets for reinforcements. 

As the war calmed and stuck with a battered fleet ready to go home, Kain was ready to go home so as they were about to turn and head home the Valyrians showed up and turned their attention on the pirates who had been plundering them for so long, and to top it all off the husband of Logan's mother betrayed the group and started attacking the Lords of Ruin and their ships. With his betrayal the battle of Novgorod begun, Novgorod was a worthless hunk of frozen rock in the furthest reaches of Valyrian space, a tundra planet with a population of 15,000 at it's peak, and now it was experiencing a battle in it's orbit. Logan and a fighter wing placed in his command tried their hardest to turn the tides but eventually they were worn down until it was just Logan, who was being chased by a group of fighters towards the surface of Novgorod he twisted and turned trying to escape them but eventually the Valyrian fighters took him down and he crash landed on the surface.

It was here where all he could do for the battle was watch, watch as his brothers and sisters went down around their father, watch as some of the pirate ships fled the battle returning back to the shoals, watch as his father stood his ground and ultimately watch the Flagship turn into a fireball. Eventually as the battle of Novgorod wore down to a close the Valyrian's sent down marines to hunt down any pirates who had landed on the planet to fleet their justice, there they found Logan and took him prisoner.

Back in the Shoals Kain became a legend and hero to many, others saw him as the devil who ruined years of work. But it was due to Kain's power over the Shoals that caused many within the Valyrian chain of command to debate his sentence, this led to public discussions on the net and eventually it was decided that having a son of Kain help them if they ever decided to lay claim to the Shoals would be beneficial to them. So they would fake Logan's execution so he could fade away from the public's mind who at this point were calling him ""the Prince of Pirates"" They took the traitor and every pirate under his command and executed them first, then they let Logan rot in prison while there they assessed if he would be a threat to them or not, and if he could be loyal to the monarchy. They also rehearsed how he would act on his execution and with all of that information they made Logan wait.

It wasn't until shortly after his 25th birthday that they withdrew him from prison for a public ""execution"" they gave the firing squad blanks and all he had to do was fall over when they fired and remain still, so that's exactly what he did they fired and he fell over faking his death, after his death they changed his last name and turned his hair a light blonde so he wouldn't be as easily recognized, there they tested his loyalty further and when he proved himself to be absolutely loyal they transferred him into the Battlegroup Eplison where only the Commodore and the captain of the vessel he's stationed on know his true identity, it was here where the Valyrians gave him a new starfighter and watched him just in case he did turn on them they would be ready to kill him. Knowing this and wanting to stay alive Logan serves dutifully as much as it pains him to do it.</div></div>

Before he could ask why they would be stalling them the face of his AI appeared in the HUD of his helmet, ""It appears you are accelerating incredibly quickly, if you keep up this pace you will be out of the range of the fleet i suggest you slow down so you can have support."" She said, Logan just scoffed. ""We'll be fine we got the torpedoes to back us up.""
""The odds of survival are thirty-two point th-""
""Shut up, blasted machine."" Logan chuckled and applied more thrust to his afterburners managing to catch up with one of the pirate cruisers who opened up on him as soon as they sighted his fighter-bomber, but with great skill he managed to weave through the bulk of the anti-fighter craft fire and drop his ordinance which connected with the bridge knocking out the entire command bridge. His Ai showed him a feed from the rear cameras of his hit on his helmet HUD. The blast had impacted the bridge and destroyed the view port sucking a few who weren't buckled down properly out into the void of space, the AI showed him the steel shutters slamming into place before cutting the feed. ""I suggest you return back to the fleet now."" The Ai said, her tone of voice having bits of anger and concern directed at her pilot. ""Alright, alright."" Logan said and turned the craft around.

As Logan flew over the the damaged cruiser they opened up once again heavily damaging one of his wings. ""Left wing integrity at 34 percent."" His AI said, but Logan ignored her instead focusing on flying his craft straight. As he kept going his craft kept shaking and bucking as the right wing tried to pick up the slack of the left one but failed in doing so, the landing was going to be rough so Logan got on the radio with the hangar. ""Ladies and gentlemen i am coming in hot, might want to clear me a little bit of space just in case."" A reply came over the radio. ""Roger that Blackbird, we got yah."" Was all it said. Logan adjusted his speed and his pitch so he could land better as he entered the hangar but all the shaking threw him off and his landing sent him skidding across the hangar, fighting with the controls Logan managed to regain control of his craft just short of hitting the far wall. ""Very well done Logan."" His Ai said, and sent a image of a smiling face to that of his HUD. ""Thanks."" Was all he said as he lifted the canopy and exited the craft.</div></div>

System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt:Pure dictatorship formerly controlled by the Lords of Ruin, but now controlled by the Black Knights pirate group
Desc:The whole planet is heavily urbanized and even then it is suffering from overpopulation problems, it has a major pollution problem as well but it's still one of the calmer planets in the system with a crime rate of only 45% in small crimes, and 65% in major crimes. It has two space stations orbiting it and those are the Diamond in the Rough. A space station that was the former home of the Lords of Ruin that has now fallen into disarray in their absence so petty gangs are now openly fighting on the station. The diamond boasts over 60 bars and brothels the most of any other space station in the system. The Other space station is known as the Crown and it's ruled over by both the Black Knights and a narcotics kingpin and his gang known simply as ""The Order"" it's one of the most populated space stations in the system with most of it being living domiciles and things needed for them to live. 

Planet Name:Skokiri
System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt:Triumvirate based with three leaders known as ""The Trident"" In reality though they are but puppets to The Hanged Men pirate group.
Desc:It is one of the only planets in the system that is not heavily urbanized, instead it's used as an Agri-world that produces crops and meat shipped all over the system. The planet is known for it's breweries and fisheries both of which are notorious for shipping out the best ale and fish in the entire galaxy.

Planet Name:Olgroth
System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt:Ruled over by The Hanged Men Pirate group.
Desc:Shokiri's moon, it is a breaker yard. In other words a junk planet where ships that are no longer needed are retired, there are hulks of entire ships scattered around the moon, or broken down parts of others. This little moon is a rough place full of squatters and people who are trying to escape retribution from various pirate groups. Out of these people a small settlement has formed simple known as The Keel. It's built entirely from ship junk and it's bar/inn is made entirely out of an old cruiser.

Planet Name:Drepa
System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt:Ruled over by Yarg's Sons pirate group, an entirely Nyrkin based pirate group
Desc:75% of the planets surface is a hiveworld for the Nyrkin, the rest of the planets surface is covered in the urban sprawl common among the shoals. It is here where most of the galaxy's undesirables come to play. One can find mercenaries,smugglers, or assassins here offering their services. This planet is also hefty in the brothel department with an average of 2 brothels per a square mile in the urban sprawl where humans make their homes. In orbit there is a space station known as the Derelict that is anything but. Heavily overpopulated, it's encouraged for people to kill each other within the space station.

Planet Name:Ascore
System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt: Corporatocracy by the Goliath trade conglomerate supported by the Sons of The Blue Moon
Desc:Covered with corporate buildings and skyscrapers. Ascore is a world of industry and modernization, it's here where companies that have Goliath's permission can operate freely without laws and ethics to tear them down. And many corporations do have a R&amp;D lab here or an off shore account where they can store their money. Goliath is the big guy here with it's own private military forces made up of mercenaries and assassins from across the system. They are heavily backed by the pirate group known as The Sons of the Blue Moon, where they give them support in orbit and they give them money.

Planet Name:Corvus
System:The Dolorous Shoals
Local Govt:Controlled entirely by the Sons of the Blue moon.
Desc:A shipyard and a base, Corvus is one of Ascore's five other moons, but it is the only one of note. It boasts the largest shipyard in the system that not only cranks out ships but repairs them. On the surface of the moon is where the Sons make their base and it's so large that i can be seen from Ascore's surface during the night as an ugly scar on half of the planets surface. From Ascore the moon gives off a blue glow hence it's nickname as ""The Blue Moon.""</div></div>  


Ship Name:The Archangel Fighter-Bomber 
Ship Type:Fighter-Bomber   
Semi-Sentience Profile:The Ship has an AI that helps with things like an extra set of hands on the controls or taking over the rear cannons when it's being chased. Logan's AI is simply known as the silver lady, due to her taking the appearance of a pale skinned woman with Silver Hair and clothing. She does not act like most of the larger ship AI instead being confined to the systems of the fighter and Logan's helmet hud. As for behavior, she cares for Logan which is an odd behavior for an AI which has caused some to question if she is defective or not, but she also gives the usual advice, tactical data, and all around pushiness of most AI who know what they are talking about.   
Escort Ships:N/a  
Ship Details/History: - The Archangel Fighter-Bomber is the ultimate pinnacle of Valyrian engineering, it's a durable craft that is capable of taking hits and dealing them as well, the fuselage is in the belly of the beast and reinforced heavily so it won't endanger the pilot. It's a heavily armored fighter all around which sacrifices some of it's speed but it's still an agile attack craft.

It is equipped with two twin cannon systems one is under the nose of the craft, the other one is in the rear underneath the pilots canopy that is either controlled by a co-pilot in the older versions or the fighters AI in the newer versions. The cannons fire heavy shredder rounds that contain miniature flechettes that act like flak rounds to fighter craft shredding wings and equipment with precision.

The Archangel is also fit with a missile rack under it's wings. It can either fit a rack of 8 scorpion anti-fighter missiles under each wing, that are capable of laser guidance or lock on capabilities, it can also fit 4 torpedoes under each wing that are capable of dealing with larger craft and causing substantial damage to the hull, it can fit 3 ""Mole"" torpedoes that dig through ship hulls and detonate either upon pilot/AI command or detonate when it chews through an significant amount of hull, or in the case of last resort the archangel can be fitted with two low yield tactical warheads for that extra bang, but it's only used as a last resort because most of the time the attack craft can't escape the emp yield of the warhead in time.</div>"

Either one. Whichever you like

@Commodorerobot: I added a section for escort vessels to the sheet ship, so you may want to give your Indoril class some escorts. Im adding the indoril class to the ship section of the thread now. Points for catching the blatant morrowind references. 

@Samebito: Instead of more privateer/pirate type characters, I'd actually rather go with an alien as a captain/high ranking officer in the Royal Navy. Ultimately, it's up to you. Post a CS and I'll work with you to make it work with the setting and what the other players develop. There are alien-majority worlds w/in the territory of the kingdom loosely governed by colonial type administrations, or who are only nominally ruled by the king and who basically buy Royal protection by paying feudal dues in resources and soldiers, so your alien species can come from the kingdom itself. The kingdom, as I mentioned, is far from being a centralized state. The Navy is one of the few institutions over which the King has more or less direct control.</div>"

You aren't imposing at all m80. I'm just spitballing stuff, it could be an old holdover title from the imperial era or something. If a King rules many worlds then it comes down to the scale of things really. The scale of the barony is still totally open to change.</div>"

Hey, sorry I missed this in my last response. I appreciate where you're coming from, pepperm1nts, but I'm not going to be too particular with titles, since even in fuedal europe the titles often didnt match actual power, wealth or holding size of a particular noble. The idea is that the Kingdom is slightly chaotic and decentralized, and so I feel like alot of this would be nonstandardized across the systems. On one planet a Baron might rule a small area or city, on others he might rule a much more significant amt of territory depending on local customs and circumstances. 

Also- side note, feel free to make up your own fun space noble titles. In the setting section, I have a xenos world administered by an Overbaron (w/e that is :) ), so feel free to improvise.</div>"

Given the popularity of the Aryon class, I think I'm going to make Commodore Morning's ship something different, in case that matters to anyone.

Sorry for the double post- I over looked this. I deliberately kept this somewhat vague to see what folks come up with. I would say...do whatever you want with it, and we'll retcon in reasons for the differences btwn the Semi-Sentiences in the different ships. My original idea was for the ship be have a sort've low grade, animal like consciousness...that the individual ships are kindve alive, huge beasts of prey, and that captains and officers can tap into and tame this as they integrate with their ships. So like big dogs...in space, with guns and targeting reticules and stuff... But that's just what my idea was, no need to stick to it.'

I wouldn't say he's 'inferior'--but Apedemak was made to be robust. Those that engineered him valued simplicity, durability, reliability, functionality, and redundancy over aesthetics and the implementation of state of the art technology, hence why his design paradigms (somewhat) mirror those of the august T-72 MBT or the A-10 Thunderbolt II and not customary aircraft or seacraft. Basically, he's a space tank--er, correction: a <span class=""bb-i"">super-heavy</span> space tank with an over-clocked bundle of <span class=""bb-s"">torch drives</span> nuclear salt-water rockets welded to his ass. A proper Lightning Bruiser if you will. 

You might've come to view Apedemak as technologically primitive after having noticed his lack of a fusion or antimatter reactor suite and Vres' utter distaste for fighters and DEWs (as well as coilguns and railguns). I've never liked antimatter reactors on account of them being both overused in fiction <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> having a knack of going absolutely <span class=""bb-i"">fail deadly</span> when the containment fields are cut; fusion, while safer than an AM reactor, isn't dirty or 'rusty' enough for what I'm going for. Railguns and coilguns are, again, overused, thus Vres uses fission pulse cannons (which utilize a shaped nuclear charge to propel a projectile out of a barrel at hypervelocity speeds) and launch cells packed full of high-yield, thermonuclear MIRV-esque missiles. In all honesty, Apedemak doesn't need anything better than fission because none of his weapon systems are power hungry enough to warrant the use of anything better.

And as for the lack of fighters? That's simple. 

They were never my thing.

I don't know what the Kingdom's technology is truly like because I don't have much information to go off of.

I would've turned him into a fully-autonomous warship with exactly 32 crew members, but no one wants to read about Donald the Destruction Drone and his loyal button pusher and leaver puller subjects. </div>"

Whatever you like. But I will ask that you use a HSR2 or HSR3 ship, comparable to the ships other players will be making.

Race: Human
Augmentics: In addition to the neural interface hardware attached to the base of the neck, Captain Belasko has received surgically-implanted synthetic eyes tethered directly to the optic chiasma. These pearly bulbs of iridescent crystal replaced his true eyes after he was rendered irreparably blind upon directly witnessing a nuclear blast during battle. 
Rank: Captain
Physical Description: Captain Belasko is an man of caucasian descent. Though he is in his late thirties, he appears ten to fifteen years older. Shallow crows feet radiate outward from the corner of his lips and eyes. While he has a thick head of hair cut short to the regulation 4 centimeters, the color has begun to drain from his head at an early age with grayed hairs intermixed with the brown. His iridescent synthetic eyes rarely blink for lack of need. His gaze is stoic and very seldom does it betray any sense of attitude or emotion.
Personal History: Gillam Belasko was born on Adriatus in the Vos System to peasant parents. His childhood was fairly unremarkable and he feared his entire life would be wasted in ignominy. In his late teenage years, Gillam left his home and parents to enlist in the Naval Academy in a final bid to accomplish something more substantial with his life. Though he had only received a standard education, Gillam made it through the rigorous entry exams by means of diligent and exhaustive study. During his training at the Academy, the Empire enjoyed a period of peace. There was, therefore, no pressing need to generate new officers and so enrollment in the Academy was very competitive. In order to keep pace with the more thoroughly-educated cadets - often the sons of nobles - Gillam found it necessary to work twice as hard most of his peers to keep from washing out. Even in the face of stiff competition from his peers, Gillam maintained high marks. Gillam relished in twarting his spoiled peers in the naval combat simulations, though he always maintained a facade of order and composure as was expected of an officer. As he progressed through the Academy, Gillam found himself infatuated by the naval organization, it's bureaucracy and its rules. For outside the Academy, one's nobility or lack thereof determined one's lot in life. But here, merit and hard work were all that could be counted. It was here that his respect for the established order was cemented.

At the age of 21, Gillam Belasko surpassed the initial expectations of his instructors and was granted the rank of Lieutenant upon completion of his training. He was assigned as a navigational ensign to the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span>, a heavily armed Gothren class cruiser. His first tours of duty took Lieutenant Belasko on patrols to the Doldrums, where the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> hunted pirates prowling about the asteroid fields and escorting mining vessels. It was on his second deployment where Belasko saw his first taste of combat.

A distress beacon drew the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> to an ore freighter claiming to have detected an unidentified vessel lurking nearby. As the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> rendezvoused, scores of boosterpack-bound pirates scattered from their hiding spots among the asteroids and swarmed the cruiser. The <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span>, wanting in point defense systems, was unable to repel the individual pirates. They landed upon the cruiser's hull and pried their way into the hangar bays. Before the marine contingent could don their vacuum suits for combat, the boarders managed to depressurize much of the ship, killing a substantial number of marines and crew.

All remaining hands were forced to defend the ship. The captain excluded Belasko from the fight however, citing the need for someone to steer the vessel to safety should the captain fall in combat. With Belasko and a skeleton crew left to man the bridge, the remaining hands on the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> took up arms to oust the pirates from their vessel. The fight went poorly for the crew, who were substantially outgunned by the heavily armed boarders. It was apparent to Belasko that the vessel would be lost if something drastic was not done. In a snap decision, Belasko made a 83 second hyperspace jump from the asteroid field that deposited the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> just above the swirling clouds of Artemon, the nearest of the Doldrum's gas giants. As the captain and his crew made a last ditch defense of the bridge bulkhead, Belasko plunged the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> into the tormentous atmosphere of the gas world below. The Lieutenant watched from the bridge screens as his shipmates fell to the pirate onslaught. As shells rattled off the bulkhead behind him, and his captain bled out, Belasko locked the bulkhead and then depressurized the entire vessel save for the bridge. As the cruiser sank deep into the heavy atmosphere of Artemon, a melange of hot, noxious gases inundated the ship. The vacsuits of the pirates, well suited for the void of space, collapsed under the intense pressure and the heat boiled the pirates alive in their suits. Within minutes, all hands outside the cruiser's bridge - be they pirate or crew - had certainly perished. Before the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> sank too deep into the crushing atmosphere, Belasko fought his way back into orbit and made his way to Far Valyria with only 6 of the original 400 crew remaining.

Upon arrival in the Far Valyria, Belasko was ordered to submit a detailed after action report concerning the incident in the asteroids. Immediately after submitting the report, officers of the Imperial Armada arrested Belasko and forced him to appear before a naval tribunal under Admiral Rutherford. For months, investigators combed through the relevant data extracted from the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> semisentience core. Hours of footage from the corridor and bridge feeds were watched during the proceedings; the owner of the ore freighter was brought to the trial for questioning. After nearly a year of evidence presentation and discussion, Admiral Rutherford handed down his decision: Lieutenant Belasko was not guilty of either charge against him. However, the Admiral Rutherford expressed severe dissatisfaction with his conduct. Though he found that Belasko's actions in the asteroids and in the skies of Artemon were ingenious and necessary to ensure that pirates would not seize an imperial vessel as his late captain had commanded, Rutherford concluded that Belasko's actions were not in line with one of core tenets of the Armada's Code of Battle: that the crew fight to the last man to keep the ship. To this end, Admiral Rutherford issued a highly controversial punishment: that Belasko serve as the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> captain under tours of extreme peril.

And peril the new Captain Belasko saw aplenty. Not long after the tribunal, the Arian Jihad broke loose across the imperial dominion. At the helm of the ship he had saved a year before, Belasko led the refitted <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> into battle against the transhumanists. At the skirmish in the Nebula of the Crowns, Belasko wrought bloody carnage against an enemy carrier formation and sparing it's Dratha class sister ship, the <span class=""bb-i"">Aphelion</span>, from a surprise attack by a transhumanist frigate. At the Siege of Korogar, the flash of a nuclear detonation in orbit left Captain Belasko blind. Even so, the captain of the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> worked in tandem with the data gathered by the ship's semisentience and scored two kills against the enemy. As the war came to a close, Captain Belasko had demonstrated once again to all those who had doubted his ability.

All but one, that is.

In the course of the Arian Jihad, Admiral Rutherford, the man that had issued Captain Belasko this trial of penance, had gone missing in action. On patrol deployments, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> stitched across the most remote corners Imperium, searching for Rutherford's flagship and the man that had given Gillam Belasko his opportunity to demonstrate his ability to demonstrate his capacity to serve the Armada with honor. It was Captain Belasko's determination to find the Admiral and demonstrate that the decision to confer the rank of Captain was not made in error, and he would not conclude his quest until the flagship was found and it's admiral reported dead or alive.

Semi-Sentience Profile:  (Pending, waiting to see how others portray theirs)
Escort Ships: N/A
Ship Details/History: Following the incident in the asteroid field, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> was refitted to facilitate more effective solitary patrols. Four small point-defence turrets have been installed to allow it to repel boarding attempts more effectively. Even with these additions, the cruiser will still find itself ill prepared to fend off strikecraft squadrons. The crew capacity has also been increased, allowing for a more robust marine contingent. With a full two regiments of well-armed marines onboard, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion</span> is capable of launching surface insertions even against planets with light to moderate anti-orbital defenses. This offensive surface capacity was demonstrated spectacularly during the Battle of Gharash.
- population: 654 personnel; 132 crew, 522 marines
- primary weapons/fleet function: Two Heartseeker railguns (fixed), two Excoriator rapid-fire batteries (nearly-full range of motion), 6 torpedo tubes (each capable of launching eight torpedoes). Like most Gothren-class vessels, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> focus in battle is to screen enemy formations and score shots against high-priority targets from great distance.  The <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> semisentience is equipped to rapidly calculate accurate firing solutions for it's long range, high-energy Heartseeker slugs. At medium range, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hyperion's</span> weapon of choice shifts to it's arsenal of high-explosive torpedoes launched from tubes on the dorsal hull. To defend itself and it's sister ships from enemy missiles and torpedoes, the torpedo tubes can also launch defensive countermeasures designed to fool or overwhelm missile tracking systems. Should enemy vessels break through into close range, the revolving Excoriator batteries are employed to <span class=""bb-i"">persuade</span> enemy vessels to return to a safer distance.

Well, the Empire and then the Kingdom have been using the neurouplink things for millenia- but there's no reason the augmentics cant have downsides, at least in some cases (some people might suffer migranes, it may affect sanity over time, etc), so that might be an interesting character trait/quirk for some.

As for the semisentience, theres room for differences between different ships that can always be explained by differences in AI aging, the different mental impressions left by officers over the centuries, etc. For some, the semisentience may behave as a typical ship computer system, but my idea was that over the ages each AI has been molded by the minds that have touched it and been given their own quirks and developed their intelligences in different ways. If you want your AI to be like Cortana and have a well developed personality and basically make your ship a full fledged character, that's permitted absolutely. IF you'd rather it not have that level of personality, that's fine too. 

The animalistic thing- i just thought the idea of these ships as being huge beasts of prey, having at once highly developed computational skills and a nonhuman type of rational intelligence would be cool. Perhaps your ship's intelligence is a bit like a dog or a shark- not quite rational and communicative, but having certain aims, habits, quirks, preferences, etc. in addition to all of the computery things it can do.

Make sense? Also, please note that I really am happy for people to do what they want with the semi-sentience idea. As i said, there's plenty of space for variation.</div>"

Since you're (one of) our admirals, you may if you wish use a HSR4 class ship. The two battleships classes currently posted are unavailable, but you can either have his ship be a Dratha class or make up your own ship type (of course, you can also use an HSR3 class ship if you think that suits the admiral better).

Secondly, I designed the character of Commodore Morning to be the second in command/lacky of our Admiral character. As such, you are welcome to control him whenever it is useful/convenient for you to do so over the course of the RP as though he were your own character.

Thirdly, @ all:

I have yet to introduce the group to the overall commander of our little expedition, the Grand Duke Konrad von Ravenstein. I'll try to get a CS for him up tomorrow, but here's a teaser to get your brains working, since he is a figure that would be known to/familiar to almost everyone's characters, at least by reputation. He is known for being a highly competent and utterly ruthless general, strategist and politician, responsible for many successful operations during the Arian Jihad and other wars. During the Arian war, he defeated many more tactically astute and genuinely brilliant commanders thanks to his utter disregard for casualties and an excellent grasp of the logistical side of warfare. He is known for making total war, and for his heavy use of xenos and mercenary forces, whom he views as useful and utterly disposable assets. His most impressive victory was the counter-invasion of Odros, which secured the Valyrian system once and for all five years into the Jihad. He is most famous, however, for the Suppression of the Vorheln Revolts in the Vos System in the later and most desperate years of the Arian Jihad, where he brutally crushed a series of socialist revolts and worker strikes in the industrial super city of Vornheln. It was there he earned the sobriquets ""the Butcher of Vornheln"" and ""the Red Duke."" He is a ground, not naval, commander, and operational fleet command will rest with the admirals. He is however, the overall strategist for the Maalik Reconquest, so he will be an active presence in everyones lives. It is an open secret that the King is terrified of him.</div>"

I probably shouldn't have called him a radical since he sees the Shouters as traitors and openly denounces them despite how other members of the party may support them behind his back.  His beliefs are if anything probably more conservative on second thought given his loyalty to the crown despite his political affiliations and ultimately wanting the king's power to expand more than replacing the king with an autocrat.  All in all, he's moderate as far as One Voice party members go.

As for aliens, mind that aliens don't really have much say as is politically anyhow and are a minority in this kingdom.  Therefore I imagine a admiral with xenophobic views isn't that terribly unprecedented even if aliens under his command would have low morale.</div>"

One Voice is a major political party in the kingdom though.

I think Flagg may wanna consider removing the enslave xenos part for One Voice since Shouters already fill the more radical version of their mindset.  Mainly since if face is important to the kingdom wouldn't having a major poltiical party that is openly advocating for the enslavement of xenos in the first place make the kingdom look xenophobic and antagonistic even without having a admiral who openly endorses them?

My idea was for Commodores to have command of small battlegroups or task forces within the invasion fleet. So he would have like two other cruisers and some escorts under his direct command for independent operations. Same with commodorerobot's character, who is a commodore. I think instead of battlegroup I should use the term squadron- will make the changes.

@Inkblood: I've glanced over it and they look good. I will go over them in some more detail now. Per pepper's suggestion, it probly makes sense to make your admiral character a vice-admiral, just so our fleet has a clear chain of command.

Chain of command so far, in reverse order:

Lt Commander Logan Noctura (Enalais)- member of rho squadron, fighter ace

Cpt. Leidof Lutzen (Samebito)- member of tbd

Cpt. Gillam Balesko (gorgen)- member of tbd

Cpt. Welkin (inkblood)- member of rho squadron

Cpt. Crakehall (Flagg/NPC)- member of tbd

Commodore Morning (Flagg)- commands epsilon squadron, composition tbd

Commodore von Ingram (CommodoreRobot)- commands rho squadron, composition tbd, includes cpt. welkin

Commodore Ujarak (zombieaccount)- command tbd

Vice-Admiral Neion (inkblood)

Admiral Rutherford (pepperm1nt)- commands Second Royal Expeditionary Fleet

Grand Duke von Ravenstein (Flagg)- commands Second Royal Expeditionary Combined Taskforce</div>"

That sounds good to me! I mean, you can flesh out the existing religion or as I said make one up! It's social/political power etc etc is up to you. Basically I'd rather not have a version of the 40k Ecclesiarchy be a thing, but other than that anything is fair game. Combining the gothic aesthetic with something more based on graeco-roman or Indian religion might be interesting. Stocking your ship with bulls for sacrifices before a battle :)

@ all, I've had a somewhat busy day. I will try to get some progress made tonight on the IC intro so we can get this shindig moving and keep up the momentum. For those of you who want to get started on their IC posts, all of our characters will begin the RP at a strategy briefing in the Orbital Fortress <span class=""bb-i"">Invincible</span> in orbit over the fortress planet of Odros in the Valyrian System.

Some things your characters would know:

- the King has just declared the Reconquest, to much fanfare. He himself will be leading the first royal expeditionary force into the relatively lightly defended Ur System.

- Your character has been assigned to the second royal exp. fleet, under the command of Admiral Rutherford and the overall command of the Grand Duke von Ravenstein. This force is bigger fleet wise and ground force wise than the first royal exp. force, but it is tasked with taking the Maalik System, which is known to be a strategic nightmare and home to the most powerful remnants of the Arian Jihad.

- the Kingdom just barely survived ten years of intense warfare, and not everyone is eager for more.

- in the interests of keeping things moving, the talking part of the strategic briefing will be minimal. Have your characters show up and I will take it from there. The Grand Duke will not be inviting questions. Don't worry if you don't introduce your character in this way, it's not required that your character attend the briefing or have an IC post describing attending. 

- the Second Royal Exp. Fleet will be large, with plenty of NPCs. It's composition and command structure will be detailed at the strategic briefing.

- please work with your fellow players to work out pre-existing relationships among our characters, and keep in mind that everyone has been fighting together already for ten years. People have been doing a great job already of this, so keep up the good work.

- the RP is still open, no immediate pressure for people to finsh CSes before the IC starts. New characters will be able to enter the role-play at any time.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">[Havendall]</span> was a military world, founded by Emperor Oren II as a base from which the Imperial Fleet could launch raids into barbarian lands, and subsequently heavily fortified as the empire's priorities shifted from agression to defense. By the sack of Almata, it had become the single most heavily fortified planet in the known galaxy, with a reputation for being impregnable.
 
Thanks to the extensive fortifications, Havendall had survived- through a constant, desperate struggle- in the chaos that ensued the collapse of the Empire. It became a focal point for the remnants of the Imperial Fleet to regroup to early on, and was ruled thereafter by a council of High Admirals, who nevertheless refused to name one among them emperor, awaiting the return of the old Empire. It became clear, however, that the safety of Havendall wouldn't last as it caught the attention of petty kings, and in the year 2913, two thirds of the fleets departed for the kingdom of Valyrius after a long and ugly conflict between those who saw the hopeless situation of the continually-besieged citadel, and those who clung steadfast to the old traditions. This schism weakened the already feeble remnants of the fleets, and over the centuries Havendall gradually saw its control over the surrounding space errode, as barbarian autocrats encroached ever deeper in its lands. 

By the 33rd century, Havendall- which was still officially called the Arcturian Empire- was reduced to the planet itself, now in a ruined world now in a perpetual state of war. It was finally extinguished by Arius in the year 3479, after a long and bloody siege in which the defenders fought for every inch of soil, and which forced the would-be emperor to send in wave after wave of his men to dislodge the remainder of the Imperial Army from the expansive underground bunker system which covered the planet. But fall it did, and by the battle's end, none of the imperials who had stayed survived. 

The shock following the destruction of Havendall played no small part in the fervor in which the Kingdom of Valyrius rallied and defeated Arius in the Battle of Archangel. Today, Havendall is a dead world on the fringe of Valyrian space, its ruins a reminder of the glory that was lost.</div></div>

The IC is up! It's sortve a prequely scene to set the mood. I will be following it up with more directly relevant posts to the actual war we'll be fighting later today or tomorrow. People are welcome to begin posting. Here are a few things to keep in mind: 

All of our characters will begin the RP at a strategy briefing in the Orbital Fortress <span class=""bb-i"">Invincible</span> in orbit over the fortress planet of Odros in the Valyrian System.  Some things your characters would know:  

- the King has just declared the Reconquest, to much fanfare. He himself will be leading the first royal expeditionary force into the relatively lightly defended Ur System.  

- Your character has been assigned to the second royal exp. fleet, under the command of Admiral Rutherford and the overall command of the Grand Duke von Ravenstein. This force is bigger fleet wise and ground force wise than the first royal exp. force, but it is tasked with taking the Maalik System, which is known to be a strategic nightmare and home to the most powerful remnants of the Arian Jihad. Of the ships mentioned in the first IC post, only the Indoril-class cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">Count van Fesselvingen</span> made it back to Valyrian space (barely) alive.

- the Kingdom just barely survived ten years of intense warfare, and not everyone is eager for more.  

- in the interests of keeping things moving, the talking part of the strategic briefing will be minimal. Have your characters show up and I will take it from there. The Grand Duke will not be inviting questions. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Don't worry if you don't introduce your character in this way, it's not required that your character attend the briefing or have an IC post describing attending.</span></span>

- the Second Royal Exp. Fleet will be large, with plenty of NPCs. It's composition and command structure will be detailed at the strategic briefing.  

- please work with your fellow players to work out pre-existing relationships among our characters, and keep in mind that everyone has been fighting together already for ten years. People have been doing a great job already of this, so keep up the good work.  

- the RP is still open, no immediate pressure for people to finsh CSes before the IC starts. New characters will be able to enter the role-play at any time.
Most probably we are in Eden still, it is only our eyes that have cha</div>"

Having been the target of Rival Claimant forces, and later barbarians and petty kingdoms, Plentiful Dawn's once fertile surface was, overtime, transformed into a crater-scarred land of ash and ruin. Constant bombardment forced its citizens to live underground, and only the moon's innumerable anti-orbital-ship railguns - operated out of huge bunkers where only the gun's barrel peered out from underground - kept the numerous invasion-attempts at bay.</blockquote>

Far Valyrius' ships devastated the invading force and broke the siege, later incorporating Plentiful Dawn into what was to become the new Arcturian Empire at the signing of the Concord of Dawn - an agreement that peacefully integrated the moon into the Kingdom of Far Valyrius, and guaranteed certain rights and freedoms -- thus becoming the Protectorate of Plentiful Dawn.</blockquote>

Well, you had the idea before me, so I won't presume to push it, but here's a few suggestions:

1. That Plentiful Dawn was at least heavily fortified prior to the fall, if not founded for the purpose of being a military base. I think the high-tech fortifications that implies makes the thousand year survival of the bastion make a lot more sense.

2. That it also has several surrounding planets under its sphere of influence, maybe not populated, but covered in imperial ruins as well. The regime would have waxed and waned in power over a thousand years, so you'd expect to see planets with outposts and colonies set up during good years, and abandoned when the bad times came again.</div>"

I added a bit about being headed by an Admiralty to this line:

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">As such, Rutherford was born and raised in gargantuan underground, military installations linked together by breathtaking tunnel-highways, under what was effectively martial law headed by an Admiralty.</blockquote>

Feel free to say your character belonged/belongs to the Admiralty if that was your plan, or that his family held seats in it at some points. 

And I added this about them controlling other worlds on and off:

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Several pushes were made to reclaim the surface, as well as other surrounding moons and planets, with some success. Over the centuries, worlds came under control of the Admiralty, only to be lost later, and sometimes reclaimed again not long after. In the later years, however, the Admiralty was forced to make the defense of Plentiful Dawn its top priority, leaving other worlds to be picked clean by barbarians.</blockquote>

I wasn't really sure where to fit that Plentiful Dawn was fortified from the start, but we can assume it was, and if you want to mention in your sheet that it was at least partly fortified (since it was a frontier world), go ahead.

These warships can be ridiculously varied, ranging from heavily armored and bristling with weaponry, to rapid assault warships, and even troop deployment. There are only a few consistencies amongst these ships, and what classifies them as a Bahamit-class warship. First and foremost, their size. Ranges between 2.5km to even 10km! The sheer size of these are a general must-have, to be capable of meeting the second requirement. They must be at least semi-self-sufficient. A large ship that size is a very, very tantalizing target, for both their enemies and wayward pirates. Hence the need to stay on the move, only stopping at planets for supplies.

All in all, these Mobile Cities are rather far and few between. However, if you do meet one, know that they can be one of the hardest ships to raid, but also one of the most rewarding.</div>"

We probably should, since the first part will be some dialogue about Logan being late if you wanted to post to show some preparation for the battle? During the actual invasion we could probably do our own posts easier since Harper and Logan have different jobs during a battle.

I have a plan for that, Ink. No worries. I was going to give you the option of having your ship moved from Rho to the main invasion fleet at the last minute, or more likely of just keeping <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/commodore-robot"">@Commodore Robot</a>'s char as an NPC until he returns (if he does) and proceeding with the diversionary attack.

Either option would work for me, but if he doesn't return, Harper could always get promoted to Commodore by some miracle.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Alex Fisher</span>

Age: 23

Bio: Alex was always one of the popular kids back in middle school and high school. It gave him a sense of superiority over his peers, along with an unhealthy dose of attitude that stuck with him as he grew into adulthood. He was clever enough to pass all of his classes without ever putting in my effort, he was talented at sports, and he was known for being a heartbreaker. Everything seemed to go his way all the time. Well, until his Sophomore year of high school, that is.

Alex never knew his father -he was born illegitimate and the man had abandoned his mother before he was born- but he did have a good relationship with his mother. But when he was fifteen, she committed suicide by overdosing on prescription drugs. She left behind a letter that explained her reasons. Alex discovered that she felt worthless since her boyfriend left her to raise their son on her own. The stress of it all finally got to be too much and she couldn't handle it anymore, so she killed herself.

Alex took her death harshly. His grades in school plummeted and he took to drinking to numb the pain of his loss. He became more of a bully, lashing out at the other students through misplaced anger. Finally, he dropped out of school completely during the first semester of his Senior year when he turned eighteen

Throughout all of this, Alex had been bouncing between different foster homes. He never stayed in one longer than two months at a time because of his issues. No one wanted to keep him. The lack of care also attributed to his aloofness later on in life.

After Alex quit high school, he had just enough money saved up to move into an apartment. He lived on just the bare essentials until he managed to get two part-time jobs and set his foot in the door of the working world. Five years later, his situation has improved, but he still often wastes his money at bars and clubs.

Position: Alex is vaguely familiar with the rumors of the haunted complex in his hometown, but he believes they are only made-up stories. He never pondered them seriously and just laughed at the people who did.</div></div>"

Occupation: Paranormal Research Specialist (Conspiracy theorist)

Appearance:

Personality: Trevor is ... crazy. And he knows it. He believes himself to be, as he puts it ""crazy, but right"" He's incredibly talkative, especially when it comes to anything involving his research. Despite his love of talking, he is extremely bad at being social. In fact, he's downright awkward. He never knows the right things to say or do, so he just speaks his mind constantly, much to the chagrin of those around him.</div>"
3955,Things That Go Bump in the Night [Kourage + Summer],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75990-things-that-go-bump-in-the-night-kourage-summer,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Advanced']",2015-02-22 00:17:00,Dagger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The blaring music faded into background noise as Alex walked towards the exit of the club. After three long hours of drinking and partying, he was ready to head home. He had been careful not to overindulge himself this time, but the low-quality liquor was still making him feel slightly sick. He sighed. If it weren’t for the tiny population in the town, maybe there would have been more clubs to choose from. He had long since grown tired of the same old drinks, songs, and people that frequented the only club within twenty miles.

Alex halfheartedly fished through his pockets to see how much money he had left. This was the other problem. He <span class=""bb-i"">wanted</span> to add more variety to his life, but spare change wasn’t going to buy him a plane ticket or a new apartment. With his current income of “just enough to get by,” there was no way he could leave his hometown anytime soon. His nearly empty wallet was a shackle that kept him bound here. He drew a quarter from his pocket and tossed it from hand to hand. It seemed like he would just have to keep working on his tolerance for cheap booze and stingy club girls.

 Alex was jerked from his thoughts by the shrill shriek of a police siren. He instinctively froze and spun around to see where the sound was coming from. A dozens different questions flashed through his mind. What happened? Was there another murder? Was it nearby? Was the killer still on the loose? Was he in danger, too? The increasing number of murders in town had set him on edge lately. At least four people had died in the last few weeks, and the murderer had yet to be caught. In fact, the killer was so elusive people were beginning to call him “The Phantom.”

Two police cars roared down the street and sped around a corner, just one block ahead of where Alex was standing. He stared after them. After living in the same town for twenty-three years, he knew the layout inside and out. That street led to a dead end. The murder —if that’s what it really was— must have only just happened during Alex’s walk home. The crime scene hadn’t even been blocked off yet. He swallowed, suddenly swept by a morbid curiosity. Maybe he could get a glimpse of the victim. The media had been so vague about the murders. No one even knew how the people were killed. Maybe now he could find out.

Alex hurried after the sirens.

Around the corner, the police were already taping off the area. Alex crept closer to get a better look. On the other side of the yellow tape, he saw what would have been a body. However, it was too mangled to tell if it was man or beast. He paled and turned away. Seeing a corpse in a movie was nothing compared to seeing one in real life. The sight made him nauseous. Thinking about it now, Alex was surprised that none of the police had tried to stop him from looking. Normally they guarded their crime scenes with as much force as they could muster, but none of these men had even glanced his way.

It was then that he noticed what held the attention of the police. There was another man trying to intrude on the scene. It only took Alex a moment to recognize him: the town nutcase, Trevor Darklin. What was he doing here? Alex watched as one of the policemen turned Trevor away, looking seriously pissed off. The rest of the officers returned to their other tasks, but that one especially frustrated man continued to watch Trevor as if he expected him to try to get by the tape again. The scenario was almost funny. It was also a good distraction from the gruesome corpse Alex just witnessed.

“Hey,” he called out to Trevor. “What’re ya doing there?” He stuffed his hands into his pockets and smiled at Trevor condescendingly, falling back into old habits. “Find any aliens, Conspiracy Boy?”</div>"
3956,Things That Go Bump in the Night [Kourage + Summer],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75990-things-that-go-bump-in-the-night-kourage-summer,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Advanced']",2015-03-06 15:26:00,Kourage,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#fff200"">""You gotta let me through!""</font> Trevor Darklin pleaded with the blue-suited officer. <font color=""#fff200"">""Please!""</font>

For months, Trevor had been reading about these crimes. Researching, studying, analyzing every bit of information that he could find. The internet carried little real evidence, and the newspapers brought a little more. But while it was a helpful resource, the local paper didn't give much in the way of details. He couldn't blame the publisher of course. Local papers had their corruptions, but not nearly as bad as the real force behind the obvious cover-up. Most likely, the police were working in conjunction with the government, holding back and real, valuable information from the public. The government was very fond of doing that.

Unlike the rest of the town, Trevor had been suspicious from the start. This was the fifth murder in the past couple of months. Each was reported to have some similarities, although the media was so vague on the matter that he could merely speculate. He needed to see the body for himself. Fortunately for him, though not for the police or the victim, this crime had taken place directly across the street from where he lived. He had been there the second he saw the flashing lights of the police cars pulling up. The scene was still fresh, and the officers hadn't gotten around to blocking it off. It seemed this was his chance.

At least, it had seemed that way until Mr. Blue-Suit had shown up. This cop was the only thing standing in his way now. How could the police be so foolish? Everyone in town knew that he was an expert on paranormal research, and there was obviously something <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> normal about this string of crimes. Whether they chose to accept it or not, these officers needed his help. Moreover, the victims needed his help, and as the only one crazy enough to actually figure out what was going on, it was his duty to help them.

<font color=""#fff200"">""I can help!""</font> He attempted to explain as more officers approached, intent on holding him back. <font color=""#fff200"">""I can tell you what killed these people!""</font>
<font color=""#6ecff6"">""Aliens?""</font> One of the officers scoffed. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Yeah, I'll bet it was aliens. They came from the sky to steal all of our cows and murder a few suburban dwellers in the process.""</font>

Trevor glared at the man who had spoken. Aliens? That was <span class=""bb-i"">such</span> a stereotype. Of course this wasn't aliens. The random blackouts that occasionally spread over the town, <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> was aliens. The new corrupted senator whose cheesy smile got him elected by the mind-controlled masses: Aliens. The random disappearances a few years back- definitely aliens. But this? Not a chance. This only further cemented his beliefs that law enforcement knew absolutely nothing. And what the heck was he saying about stealing cows?!?

<font color=""#ed145b"">""No,""</font> another officer interjected in a sarcastic tone. <font color=""#ed145b"">""It must be a cover-up arranged by the government.""</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">""Well...""</font> It was, sort of. At least part of it was, but that wasn't what he was interested in at the moment. Mr Blue-Suit stepped forward, pushing him back into the street.

<font color=""#0072bc"">""Stay away, FreakShow,""</font> he growled. <font color=""#7ea7d8"">""We don't want you here, and we certainly don't need you!""</font>

The others went back to their work, but BlueSuit remained, glaring at Trevor as though daring him to approach again. The young specialist was about to take him up on that dare, when he heard a voice calling to him from the other side of the yard.

<font color=""#bc8dbf"">""Find any aliens, Conspiracy Boy?""</font> the voice mocked him.

Again with the aliens!?! It was not aliens! What were these people, blind? Aliens wouldn't have left behind a mutilated body, they would have taken it back to their home planet for study! Seriously, that was basic stuff. Even idiots knew that.

<font color=""#fff200"">""It's not aliens!""</font> He turned in the direction of the voice. Seeing who it was, his eyes darkened. <font color=""#fff200"">""Although I couldn't possibly expect <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> to know that.""</font>

Upon seeing the face of his mocker, he knew exactly who it was. Alex... Alex Something. Okay so maybe he didn't know exactly, but he certainly knew the type. He'd seen this man around before, usually hanging out in clubs and bars. He was one of those arrogant unbelievers who thought that they were better than everyone else, always searching for some sort of purpose. Yet they assumed that tough they had no drive, they were still somehow more mature and intelligent than him. He who knew exactly what he was doing with his life.

<font color=""#fff200"">""And my research has nothing to do with you. Besides, I live here, so I have an excuse. What are <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> doing here?""</font></div>"

“Of course,” Alex said with a sarcastic shrug of his shoulders. “I’m not an expert like you.” A smirk tugged at his lip. He loved how easy it was to ruffle Darklin’s feathers. He barely even had to try! Originally, Alex was just going to leave Trevor with one little sting, but his reaction was too entertaining. He decided he had time to stick around for a few more jabs.

<font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“And my research has nothing to do with you.”</span></font> Trevor went on hostilely. <font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">“Besides, I live here, so I have an excuse. What are <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> doing here?”</span></font>

“I live around here, too, hotshot,” Alex crossed his arms. “This town ain’t that big, you know. But more specifically, I’m here for <span class=""bb-i"">that</span>.” He jabbed a thumb over his shoulder, indicating the crime scene behind him. “Who can resist seeing a dead body, right? You know how uninformed the media keeps us these days. I wanted to see what’s going on, myself; I wanted to see just how ruthless this ‘Phantom’ guy really is.” Of course, this was all just a bluff, but Trevor couldn’t possibly know that. In reality, Alex was still slightly shaken from the sight of the corpse. He hadn’t expected to see such a gruesome murder, and now he could understand why the media was keeping this under wraps. The town would be wrought with panic if details about The Phantom got out.

“So you think this killer’s not from Mars?” Alex said, swinging the topic back around to Trevor. “That’s boring. He’s just a normal guy like you and me? Well… like <span class=""bb-i"">me</span>, anyways.” He shook his head and went on, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “You know, I just <span class=""bb-i"">can’t</span> bring myself to believe this guy is a human. To get away with this many murders and never leave enough evidence for the police to find <span class=""bb-i"">anything at all</span>? It’s almost like this guy really is a ghost.”</div>"

He knew that Alex was mocking him, but he refused to stoop to this guy's level. It was better to act oblivious, he figured, than to engage in petty arguments. Especially when those arguments involved opponents with little sense and even less knowledge. Remaining hostile could only hinder his research. Ignorant as he seemed though, this Alex character had managed to pose a half-decent theory. ""Ghost"" was a relatively large category, but from what little he knew, such an apparition would make a believable suspect. There was just one problem...<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Except, of course, 'ghosts' are generally intangible. Possession, maybe...""</font> he began mumbling to himself as he stepped closer to the body. Blue-Suit had conveniently gone to join his friends in their work, evidently expecting that his conversation with Alex would distract him from his curiosity. Foolish man, that one. The cops filed inside, unable to move the body before the arrival of the coroner but eager to continue the investigation. Trevor couldn't help but smile at the opportunity, ignoring Alex now as he moved in closer.<br/><br/>That smile would not remain for long. What could only be the body of the deceased could barely be described as such. It was so twisted and mangled. The only identifiable part was the face... well, half of it at any rate. The other half had been scraped...no... clawed away. So deep were the wounds that nearly half of the skull was visible. It was a truly disgusting sight. Claw marks were evident across the entire abdomen, shredded cloth from what had once been a shirt was strewn about the scene, and what was left of his arms appeared charred and deformed. <font color=""#fff200"">""Strange..."" </font> Circling around, Trevor found that the legs were mostly intact. That fact alone was very weird. What could mutilate the upper body to such an extent but leave the lower untouched?<br/><br/>Whatever it was, the wounds were definitely not self-inflicted. Trevor looked grimly upon the body. Part of him knew that he should be disgusted by the sight, but he wasn't normal. Perhaps to shield itself, his mind went immediately to his work. <font color=""#fff200"">""Definitely not possession, that wouldn't explain the burns. A poltergeist perhaps? No..."" </font></div>"

Autumn Eirwen

Age 16

She was in a car accident as a child and was blinded in both eyes as well a portion of her brain was damaged which causes her to suffer from absence seizures, where she sort of drifts off inside her head randomly and is unaware of what is happening around her. The seizures normally last up between two minutes to five. They happen randomly and after the seizure is over Autumn will continue doing whatever it was she had been doing before the seizure started. The dangerous part of this however is that while in the seizure Autumn will move. Be it simply moving her hand or getting up and walking away maybe towards a staircase. She has no control over what she does nor does she remember any of it when she comes out of the seizure.

She likes music. It is very soothing to her. She also likes to feel the sun on her face.</div></div>"

He stretches his arms, muscles crackling all the way up to his shoulders. He pushes himself up into a sitting position, pulling his wheelchair closer. He gently grabs it and, going in a motion he has done a thousand times before, quickly sits down in the wheelchair. He grips the wheels and rolls them forward, spinning them toward the door.

Her sightless eyes were closed and she hummed softly. While her world was dark now, when she listened to music and closed her eyes it was like she could see in color again. See the rhythm of the notes, see the different tones as they flowed together. When her eyes were open it was hard to imagine the colors but when she was in the silence of her room, the music being the only thing in her world, the colors became alive to her once more. Slender fingers tapped along with the beat, clasped together over her stomach. Her silver hair was splayed out around her head in a halo, her bangs falling softly over her eyes.
 
After the song ended Autumn stood to her feet and headed for the door. When she had first arrived, she had taken time to memorize the number of steps it took her to get places. Though she needed assistance in most areas. She mostly needed help getting to a room but once in the room and if she was familiar with the layout she was able to get around unaided. She reached her door and gently turned the knob, opening the door and listening closely before she took a few steps outside her room. She then paused before reaching a hand out and placing it against the wall. She then began heading down the hall, counting in her head as she went.</div>"

It had been years since he last stayed in one hospital, but he knew that was when they we're trying hard to keep him alive. He also knew, this new home, this would be his coffin, he knew completely that he was brought here to die in peace. He took a quick drink from a flash that smelled more like petrol than whiskey, and swallowed it thirstily. Ever since his liver began to shut down, the nurses and doctors simply let him drink, they knew and he knew that he was as good as gone, and there wasn't a point in denying him one of his few pleasures. He was escorted by the ambulance drivers up the stairs and to the front desk, then they quickly left.

""Hello. My name Is Micah, I've been informed this is my newest place of residence.""

<span class=""bb-b"">Zade Magnus</span>
Age: 32
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Green
Height: 6' 2""
Body Type: Between average and a little toned

Other Information: Zade is a newscaster for Trip City. He's not particularly famous, but he has a familiar enough face that makes him recognizable if he was seen on the street. He doesn't look very friendly and always seems to be in a bad mood about something, but it's just the way he carries himself. On screen he's serious and does his job well. Not much else is known about him as he keeps his distance from everyone. He will wear sunglasses which keeps people from recognizing him most of the time, but it's not like he's a celebrity. Most people don't go crazy for a newscaster, and if you do, you might be considered weird, especially to him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Axel Striphe</span> 
Age: 19
Hair Color: Black, with natural white locks deep near the roots.
Eye Color: Crystal, sapphire blue.
Height: 6'2""
Body Type: Pure muscular, but with a lean, ripped physique that doesn't make it literally all bulk. As shown in picture.

Other Information: Axel was just an average boy growing up. He loved sports, and worked out quite a bit, but his favorte past-time was, in fact, fighting. he made an MMA club in high-school, and it actually lasted quite a bit, until he graduated. There, he had enough funds to make his own legal Fight Club, where he taught others how to fight, and they usually sparred every day. It was nice money. However, since he has a friend that mostly lords over that club, he spends even more of his time in the UBA; an Underground Battle Arena created centuries ago in the city. The people usually fight until the death, which is why it's hosted in the sewers, in a sort of cage-like arena. He is quickly becoming a master of Krav Maga, and is the top ranked fighter there so far. His 'stage-name', and name used there, is Strife, taken from his last name.

<span class=""bb-b"">Xander ""Vega"" Chaser</span>
Age: 15
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Black
Height: 5""9
Body Type: Thin, not exactly muscular but in good shape, he could be mistaken as a weakling.

Other information: Xander is one of the most peculiar combination of person you could ever meet. Xander is a nice and usually friendly person but also has his dark and more sadistic sides for a ""reserved"" group of people (Evil). He loves both videogames (especially Touhou and Fighting Games) and MMA, being taught by his father five different types of martial arts he never really gets picked on. People tried to bully him for sure but only ended up being knocked out on the floor and sent to the principal's office, no one, due to ignorance knows the types of martial arts he practices but it is said he knows Muay Thai and a bit of Brazilian Juijitsu and Shoot Wrestling, but it is clear he knows far more than the three. He is extremely skilled in his martial arts and weapon combat, he also mixes in his flexibility with his fighting style as to surprise his opponents and bear locks easier, meaning he should never be underestimated in a fight. For his less violent personality, he enjoys videogames and quite an active gamer while not training with his martial arts skills, notable titles include Touhou, Street Fighter, and Assassin's Creed. He is known to be immensely friendly but also serious at times as well as childish, this can be noted on how he carries a Touhou plushie in his backpack and will be seen admiring it in public (e has a collection of them) every day. Though it is clear he does this for two reasons; one, he loves the franchise and characters, two he's attracting a fight. He earned the nickname of ""Vega"" (coming from his favorite videogame character in Street Fighter) after showing off a bit of his sadism when leaving school having a gun pulled out on him as for money. He clearly is not to be trifled with at all. He is known through out the high school he goes to, but doesn't or can't make any friends due to the people there at the school, if anything he has acquaintances but not friends. He's always look to find someone to be his friend and who'll understand him. He started living alone in his parents former apartment after their untimely death, it was fully payed off and there was enough money in their bank accounts to continue paying the bills, it's been three months and his plushie cuddling and search for a friend increased drastically, he clearly did not want to be alone.

<span class=""bb-b"">Daniel Parton</span>
Age: 19
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Blue
Height: 5' 8""
Body Type: Average

Other Information: There's no way around it, Daniel is a nerd. It doesn't help that most of his friends have moved away or gone off to collage. As a result he has fallen back to two of his pass times, video games and anime. He is a server/busser at a local deli (sandwich shop) while he saves for his own education. His parents are pushing him to go do other things as well so he has started looking at other things to go that are nearby. Learning to do new things wasn't really the issue, it was having to meet new people that was the problem.

<span class=""bb-b"">Renee Miyume</span>
Age: 18
Hair Color: Brown
Eye color: Green
Height: 5'4''
Body Type: Thin, but fit.

Other Information: Renee used to live with both of her parents, and she is an only child. On the surface, her family seems normal, and quite happy. However, she moved away after graduating from high school, and is about to head into the college that her parents wanted her to attend. Her parents were, to say the least: tiger parents. She was always told what to do and was punished if she didn't achieve that goal that was set for her, her successes were always placed on the wall for everyone to see. She always wanted to become a writer, or an artist, but her parents didn't allow her to pursue her passions and told her that she had to succeed or else she would not only be a disgrace, but she wouldn't survive in the real world. Her only escape from that pressure was anime and video games. She wasn't allowed to hang out with any friends she made or to have a social life in general. Along with going to college, she managed to get herself a job at the pet store.
She is academically smart but she when it comes to talking to people she can be a bit awkward.

<span class=""bb-b"">Maxwell Ryte</span>
Age: 15
Hair Color: Brown 
Eye Color: Green
Height: 5'8""
Body Type: Given that Maxwell is rather rich, he has to look it, he isn't extremely muscular, but he looks a bit better than average, basically he's a rich pretty boy.

Other Information: Maxwell is the son of Mary and Jason Ryte. They happen to be the owners of Ryte Industries. You've probably seen the Ryte logo on something, considering the company does everything from Construction to fast food. Maxwell is rather manipulative and egotistical, though he hides his natural tendencies to be a selfish dick by acting like a nice, respectable rich kid with good looks, to preserve the image of Ryte industries. Maxwell puts himself above everyone else, just because he has money, good looks, and brains. Maxwell resents his parents in a way, since they value the image of their company over their own son. He was forced to go to a normal public Highschool in Trip city, since Ryte industries has its roots in the town, and Maxwell's parent's wanted some sort of a connection with the common folks. So, a popular, manipulative, rich, asshole, who's being nice because his parents said to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Arran White</span>
Age: 16
Hair Color: Red with blackish tips
Eye Color: Purple-blue
Height: 5’10”
Body Type: Boy like, Toned (sorta). (Arran is a girl)

Other Information: While Arran is a girl, she is often mistaken as a boy, and glad for it; she hates having to be defined as a girl. The only thing defining Arran as a girl is the tiny little fact that she is one. Other than that she walks like a boy, talks like a boy, basically almost is a boy. She loves music and is the vocalist; Raz, for the rising Internet band: Night. Night is referred to as a band of boys, but none of them have ever actually admitted to Night being only boys. Arran lives on the couch of her band mates, having no home to go back to, at least none that will let her in anyway. She helps with cooking and cleaning, and doesn’t go to school, but rather spends her days wandering the city, or reading at the library, pretty much always listening to music. She herself doesn’t write many songs, certainly not ones she’d let anyone else hear. Arran has a shot fuse and quick temper, but is also rather sensitive; her mood balancing dangerously between wild and super agro, and, drowning and depressed. Arran can fight, but not amazingly well, she is strong, fast and kind of agile, so she is competent at fighting, but would like to get better.

<span class=""bb-b"">Sophia Vollstandig</span> 
Age: 15 
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: Black
Body Type: Lean and fit.

Other Information: One's first impression of her would be a quiet, polite, and shy kind of girl. But no, actually, she's the exact opposite. She's mostly cheerful and can be violent at times, sometimes even coming off as rude(though rare) in front of her friends. Around people she doesn't know though, she acts the former way. She's not a nerd. Or a sports person. Both, you could say. Sophia loves reading books and writing up a good story, but at the same time likes outdoor activities and such. She's also an expert at throwing knives or handling anything about them, and can come off as a good fighter, knowing martial arts. She has many friends and is well-liked by many, as she fits in groups of friends well. But hey, one who fits everywhere means that person doesn't fit anywhere, right? So that's the problem. She considers her friends as only acquaintances. She doesn't have what one would call a true friend, and she's quite sad about that(though she doesn't show it). So yeah, Sophia is that type of person.

<span class=""bb-b"">Stella Blackhart</span>
Age: 18
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Dark blue
Body Type: Slender, but frail

Other Information: At first glance, she may looks like your average High School girl. She is a cheerful, kind, and very friendly girl. She attend a normal public high school in Trip City. There, many idolized her for her kind and friendly demeanor. She also hang-out with all her friends normally. She is the type of a person who you can't be enemy with. However, she is actually a genius freelance hacker. The deletion of 10.000 users from facebook, North Korea leaked military document to nuke America, mass deletion of FBI secret document, Japan leaked plan to create a biological weapon and many other serious hacking cases. She involved in every cases mentioned with all her many comrades. She do the hacking 'for the sake of my goal'. She think that this world should be ruled by the strong one, not the weak one who hide behind their money. Her goal is to create a world based on meritocracy system. What will happen if someone found out about her real identity? Who knows. Maybe her personality changed from a nice person into a heartless person in an instant.

<span class=""bb-b"">Axel Striphe</span> 
Age: 19
Hair Color: Black, with natural white locks deep near the roots.
Eye Color: Crystal, sapphire blue.
Height: 6'2""
Body Type: Pure muscular, but with a lean, ripped physique that doesn't make it literally all bulk. As shown in picture.
Other Info: Axel was just an average boy growing up. He loved sports, and worked out quite a bit, but his favorte past-time was, in fact, fighting. he made an MMA club in high-school, and it actually lasted quite a bit, until he graduated. There, he had enough funds to make his own legal Fight Club, where he taught others how to fight, and they usually sparred every day. It was nice money. However, since he has a friend that mostly lords over that club, he spends even more of his time in the UBA; an Underground Battle Arena created centuries ago in the city. The people usually fight until the death, which is why it's hosted in the sewers, in a sort of cage-like arena. He is quickly becoming a master of Krav Maga, and is the top ranked fighter there so far. His 'stage-name', and name used there, is Strife, taken from his last name.</div>"

Age: 15
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Black
Height: 5""7
Body Type: Thin, not exactly muscular but in good shape, he could be mistaken as a weakling.

---
Other Information: Xander is one of the most peculiar combination of person you could ever meet. Xander is a nice and usually friendly person but also has his dark and more sadistic sides for a ""reserved"" group of people (Evil). He loves both videogames (especially Touhou and Fighting Games) and MMA, being taught by his father five different types of martial arts he never really gets picked on. People tried to bully him for sure but only ended up being knocked out on the floor and sent to the principal's office, no one, due to ignorance knows the types of martial arts he practices but it is said he knows Muay Thai and a bit of Brazilian Juijitsu and Shoot Wrestling, but it is clear he knows far more than the three. He is extremely skilled in his martial arts and weapon combat, he also mixes in his flexibility with his fighting style as to surprise his opponents and bear locks easier, meaning he should never be underestimated in a fight. For his less violent personality, he enjoys videogames and quite an active gamer while not training with his martial arts skills, notable titles include Touhou, Street Fighter, and Assassin's Creed. He is known to be immensely friendly but also serious at times as well as childish, this can be noted on how he carries a Touhou plushie in his backpack and will be seen admiring it in public (e has a collection of them) every day. Though it is clear he does this for two reasons; one, he loves the franchise and characters, two he's attracting a fight. He earned the nickname of ""Vega"" (coming from his favorite videogame character in Street Fighter) after showing off a bit of his sadism when leaving school having a gun pulled out on him as for money. He clearly is not to be trifled with at all. He is known through out the high school he goes to, but doesn't or can't make any friends due to the people there at the school, if anything he has acquaintances but not friends. He's always look to find someone to be his friend and who'll understand him. He started living alone in his parents former apartment after their untimely death, it was fully payed off and there was enough money in their bank accounts to continue paying the bills, it's been three months and his plushie cuddling and search for a friend increased drastically, he clearly did not want to be alone.

Daniel Parton
Age: 19
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Blue
Height: 5' 8""
Body Type: Average
Other Information: There's no way around it, Daniel is a nerd. It doesn't help that most of his friends have moved away or gone off to collage. As a result he has fallen back to two of his pass times, video games and anime. He is a server/busser at a local deli (sandwich shop) while he saves for his own education. His parents are pushing him to go do other things as well so he has started looking at other things to go that are nearby. Learning to do new things wasn't really the issue, it was having to meet new people that was the problem.</div>"

Renee Miyume
Age: 18
Hair Color: Brown
Eye color: Green
Height: 5'4''
Body Type: Thin, but fit.
Other Info: Renee used to live with both of her parents, and she is an only child. On the surface, her family seems normal, and quite happy. However, she moved away after graduating from high school, and is about to head into the college that her parents wanted her to attend. Her parents were, to say the least: tiger parents. She was always told what to do and was punished if she didn't achieve that goal that was set for her, her successes were always placed on the wall for everyone to see. She always wanted to become a writer, or an artist, but her parents didn't allow her to pursue her passions and told her that she had to succeed or else she would not only be a disgrace, but she wouldn't survive in the real world. Her only escape from that pressure was anime and video games. She wasn't allowed to hang out with any friends she made or to have a social life in general. Along with going to college, she managed to get herself a job at the pet store.
She is academically smart but she when it comes to talking to people she can be a bit awkward.

Maxwell Ryte
Age: 15
Hair Color: Brown 
Eye Color: Green
Height: 5'8""
Body Type: Given that Maxwell is rather rich, he has to look it, he isn't extremely muscular, but he looks a bit better than average, basically he'
s a rich pretty boy.
Other Information: Maxwell is the son of Mary and Jason Ryte. They happen to be the owners of Ryte Industries. You've probably seen the Ryte logo on something, considering the company does everything from Construction to fast food. Maxwell is rather manipulative and egotistical, though he hides his natural tendencies to be a selfish dick by acting like a nice, respectable rich kid with good looks, to preserve the image of Ryte industries. Maxwell puts himself above everyone else, just because he has money, good looks, and brains. Maxwell resents his parents in a way, since they value the image of their company over their own son. He was forced to go to a normal public Highschool in Trip city, since Ryte industries has its roots in the town, and Maxwell's parent's wanted some sort of a connection with the common folks. So, a popular, manipulative, rich, asshole, who's being nice because his parents said to.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Arran White

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16

<span class=""bb-b"">Hair Color:</span> Red with blackish tips

<span class=""bb-b"">Eye Color:</span> Purple-blue

<span class=""bb-b"">Height:</span> 5’10”

<span class=""bb-b"">Body Type:</span> Boy like, Toned (sorta). (Arran is a girl)

<span class=""bb-b"">Other Information:</span> While Arran is a girl, she is often mistaken as a boy, and glad for it; she hates having to be defined as a girl. The only thing defining Arran as a girl is the tiny little fact that she is one. Other than that she walks like a boy, talks like a boy, basically almost is a boy. She loves music and is the vocalist; Raz, for the rising Internet band: Night. Night is referred to as a band of boys, but none of them have ever actually admitted to Night being only boys. Arran lives on the couch of her band mates, having no home to go back to, at least none that will let her in anyway. She helps with cooking and cleaning, and doesn’t go to school, but rather spends her days wandering the city, or reading at the library, pretty much always listening to music. She herself doesn’t write many songs, certainly not ones she’d let anyone else hear. Arran has a shot fuse and quick temper, but is also rather sensitive; her mood balancing dangerously between wild and super agro, and, drowning and depressed.
Arran can fight, but not amazingly well, she is strong, fast and kind of agile, so she is competent at fighting, but would like to get better.</div>"

Name: Sophia Vollstandig

Age: 15

Hair Colour: Black

Eye Colour: Black

Body Type: Lean and fit.

Other Information: One's first impression of her would be a quiet, polite, and shy kind of girl. But no, actually, she's the exact opposite. She's mostly cheerful and can be violent at times, sometimes even coming off as rude(though rare) in front of her friends. Around people she doesn't know though, she acts the former way. She's not a nerd. Or a sports person. Both, you could say. Sophia loves reading books and writing up a good story, but at the same time likes outdoor activities and such. She's also an expert at throwing knives or handling anything about them, and can come off as a good fighter, knowing martial arts. She has many friends and is well-liked by many, as she fits in groups of friends well. But hey, one who fits everywhere means that person doesn't fit anywhere, right? So that's the problem. She considers her friends as only acquaintances. She doesn't have what one would call a true friend, and she's quite sad about that(though she doesn't show it). So yeah, Sophia is that type of person.</div>"

NARRATIVE

It is the fall season, although it is not that much noticeable in most parts of the city except where there are trees. Although some people might catch a chill from the wind. But in the outskirts there are leaves falling from trees in forest areas. The city square, which features a large TV screen that typically only shows breaking and typical news reports and advertisements are doing just that. Nothing out of the ordinary is being broadcasted. Almost fitting for the start of the story a tourism ad plays, or propaganda depending on how you want to look at it.

""Welcome to Trip City! The leading edge of first world order! With the low rates of violence and crime in the recent years humanity has been able to dedicate more time to education and science. Technology advances are projected to increase in the next 10 years. In fact, plans on colonizing on distant planets are no longer dreams, but rather long term goals...""

The ad is quite boring so it fades away into the background of noise. Of course, you might have not have even seen the ad if you weren't in the city square, or watching that particular channel to begin with. Everything that ends must come to a start first. So let's get onto life-- life in Trip City. Where do you start? Who are you? Your story begins now.</div>"

Xander had only just gotten out of school, beginning to walk back home as he was seen in public in the happiest of moods, cuddling his Flandre Scarlet plushie.

""Yes Flandre, I love you too, I don't care what anyone thinks, screw society and anyone who insults me!"" He said cheerfully as he walked down the street, before stopping his little scene and just carrying her in his left hand. 

He was hungry after school as always and began passing by a street filled with shops and resturants. He looked at each of them while keeping his Flandre quite close to him, just looking around as to see where he might stop to eat.</div>"

Axel sat in a nearby tea-shop, a bandaged, slightly bloody fist resting against his cheek as he over-looked the menu. <span class=""bb-b"">""Excuse me, mam.""</span> He called out, his deep voice nearly making the waitress in front of him jump. No one had noticed him enter. <font color=""#f49ac2"">""Er, yes, sir?""</font> She smiled at the rather handsome, long-haired man, only for her eyes to widen at his apparel. Axel had been at the Pitt since yesterday, and other than a quick-shower, he didn't really have time to pick out the best clothing for a preppy tea shop. They smelled good, but they were more fit for training. Torn jeans, boots, and a sleeveless black under-armor shirt that hugged his form. White, slightly bloody bandages wrapped around his knuckles, and down to his forearms, and he had a band-aid underneath his left eye. {Practically his picture}

<span class=""bb-b"">""A mint tea?""</span> He questioned lightly, a slightly rougeish smirk forming on the corner of his lips. The lady blushed when she realized that she was smirking, and quickly dashed towards thef back, calling over her shoulder, <font color=""#f49ac2"">""Y-yes, sir!""</font> Axel was rather amused, but he merely looked back down at the menu, with a sigh. They didn't have any bacon. Great.</div></div>"

The temperature was mild and it meant thee year would soon be winding down. That didn't stop him from completely wasting the morning inside though. His dad was off at work for the day as always and his two younger sisters to school. That just left him and his mom still at home. At least until it was time for him to go to work. Only having two cars between the five of them that meant getting dropped off.

Midday was the usual shift change, just before school let out. Their location was on a fairly busy road which meant there was an influx of people right around after school. Having been through the routine many times Daniel got things ready in advance. Once people started showing up it was a race to keep the place clean and getting food out to everyone.

On top of that they wanted him to talk to people. See how they were doing, get to know them, build up a good customer relation kind of stuff. It wasn't the most fun part of the job but it had been helping him with his social skills. It also taught him how to act interested in some of the most boring or pointless conversation points points ever. Perhaps more valuable was the knowledge of how to get out of those mind numbing situations.

Now that school let out things were going to pick up.</div>"

Renee sighed as she got off of the bus and walked down the sidewalk with her, passively listening to the large TV as she walked on. She was just glad to be done with her classes for today, and she was glad to have a day off of her job for today. So, she decided to spend some time relaxing before she went back to the dorms to study.

Oh, before we move on, Xander was wearing a black shirt and some grey pants with some sneakers. He only continued to cuddle his plushie before his eyes caught attention of the deli which sounded like a good idea to his stomach. He walked into the deli, carrying Flandre in as if it were nothing. He quickly took a spot next to the window as to get a good view of everything from the resturant.

He slung off his backpack and let it lean on the legs of the chair, before placing his Flandre plushie on the table, making her face him as he smiled back at his little doll. From the table he began to think upon what he would have. Assuming there was already a menu on the table, he picked it up and began to read through it, if not he raised his hand and awaited for service.</div>"

When the waitress (1) had the tea ready, she came out. She felt bad for not recognizing that your character walked in. But despite pondering that, she suddenly lost a sense of self. For one second she forgot what she was doing. She flinched, spilling the tea and breaking the tea cup and pot. It almost looked like she wouldn't catch herself, but did, and saw the tea suddenly at her feet, with customers starring at her. She didn't remember dropping it. ""Oh my god,"" she thought, embarrassed. She ran to go get a rag.

Moments later when another waitress (2) was leaving to give someone else their order, the employee door was open long enough to hear a crash, ""What's going on?!"" ""Are you okay?"" The waitress who just exited looked worried upon hearing it too.

The commotion died down almost as soon as it started and the bus boy started to clean up the mess. A new waitress came to give Axel's mint tea. ""We're so sorry about that. Could I get anything else started for you?"" She said it looking a little concerned.

Axel could hear another young lady murmuring in the shop eating a muffin, ""What a klutz.""</div>"

Pushing it through the back of his mind, the fighter glanced up at the new waitress and nodded his consent. ""No worries. I'm fine for now. Thanks."" He accepted the mint tea, wrapping his bandaged hands around the hot mug and taking a slow, favorable sip. He loved tea, and despite being seen as a cocky, skilled fighter in the underground, Axel often wondered what would have happened if he, instead, created a tea shop instead of a Fight Club.

""Is that lady alright?"" His voice was curious, and slightly concerned, and Axel glanced back down towards the staff-only door.</div>"

""Oh, ya, I'm sure she's fine. She was probably low on blood sugar or something."" The waitress smiled, ""Let me know if you need anything else, hun, I'll be your server now."" She went off to check on the other customer's orders.

Behind the employee doors the waitress who nearly fell over was went home to get some rest. She took the back door, as it was apparent that she never showed up again, and other waiters and waitresses greeted the customers she was attending. They told them that she had gone home, and that they would be serving them now. Business continued to run as normal.

Saving the file she emailed it to the boys and, after gathering her stuff and switching the equipment off, left the recording studio. Blinking in the bright sunlight, Arran started off down the street, humming the tune to their latest song. Today was a wandering day, she was going to stroll along in almost too hot sunshine, and find somewhere that was hopefully interesting to stop, maybe have a bite to eat, or read a book, probably stopping by the supermarket on the way home, so that they could have Sheppard’s pie for dinner tonight.

""Oh, thank you."" Xander said, taking the menu in his hands.

When asked for a drink he looked up in thought for a few seconds before saying,

""Just a glass of water please, and forgive the awkward question, but do you have a drink that's...eh...blood coloured? Might as well keep going with the mood with Flandre here."" He said with a shrug, using his head as to point at the plushie.

He began to look over through the menu as to find something he'd like.

""What do you suggest from the menu, that's meaty, of course?"" He asked tilting his head at Daniel.</div>"

Glass of water and something red. A slightly odd request. ""The only drink we have that is red is Hi-C."" He wrote that down real quick and turned back toward the menu that was above the counter across the way. He already knew most of it by now, but it was still something he did when he was trying to decide what he would pick. ""well let's see."" Given the criteria he turned back once he had some choices in mind. 

""There are actually quite a few. I usually prefer the hot sandwiches myself. If you want a lot of meat then the New Yorker is a good option. Pastrami, corned beef, swiss, and spicy brown mustard on rye. There's also the BLT which is also a pretty simple choice"" He pointed then one out on the menu. ""If that's a little plain for you there is also the Italian. Ham, salami, provolone, bell peppers, and black olives, lettuce, red onion, and tomato on a baguette."" Again he pointed it out. ""It's also hard to go wrong with the Club if you want a cold sandwich. Ham, turkey, bacon, cheddar, swiss, mayo, honey mustard, lettuce, and tomato on sliced wheat. If there is anything there that you don't want we can make it without as wll. And if all else fails there is the build your own where you would pick what you want. Choose a bread, meat, cheese, and any of the other toppings.""

It was clear he had gone through this routine many times because he went from one sandwich to the next without missing a beat. ""I can go get your drink while you think about it if you'd like. I'm running around constantly so you can just flag me down.""

(For simplicity I'll mainly use items from the <a href=""http://www.mcalistersdeli.com/menu/starters"">McAlister's Deli menu</a> as I already know a lot of those)</div>"

Arran dodged out the way of the stampede of kids around her age rushing out of the school gates. Spotting Kyle she ducked and dodged through the mass of bodies until she caught up to him, grabbing onto his arm to avoid getting swept away with the tide. Kyle spun round, caught sight of Arran, holding onto his arm for dear life, and pulled her out of the crowd. “Arran! Why aren’t you at the shop? I specifically suggested going to a shop, so as to avoid this mess.” Arran blinked, frowning. “I forgot,” she muttered in a small voice. “So why didn’t you text me?” Kyle asked. “I forgot.” Arran said again. Kyle threw his hands in the air, “Oh, come on, you forgot to text me?” 
“No” Arran stated matter-of-factly “I forgot my phone, it’s on your desk. Charging, I think.” Rolling his eyes Kyle pulled Arran down the street, to a shop, a deli according to the sign. Sitting down at a table at the back Arran looked at Kyle, “And we are meting here, why?” 
“Ben suggested this place, he said it was good.” Kyle answered. Ben was the guitarist for Night; Kyle the drummer, another boy, called Luke, was the bass/pianist, and Arran the vocalist. “I sure hope Ben’s the one paying then, cause I’d rather have gotten a coffee and sat in the park.” Arran grumbled, playing with the frayed hem of her shirtsleeve, “I finished recording that song, by the way.” Kyle looked up, “you got it here?” he asked enthusiastically. “Nope.” Arran admitted not looking up, “I forgot”
“Uh huh.” Kyle huffed, having obviously been looking forward to hearing it. “Yo, wassup?” said a voice from behind them. Arran and Kyle swiveled round to see a familiar freckled face, grinning at them, “Ben not here yet? Ah well, we can wait. You finish that song yet? Cause I want to hear it, oh please say you finished it. Hey Kyle. Ohhh… what do we want to eat? Or drink? I want a coffee, do you think they sell coffee?” 
“Neither you nor Arran need a coffee.” Kyle patted the chair next to him, “So sit down, <span class=""bb-b"">now</span>.” 
“Yes sir.” Luke sat his hyperactive but down, and then popped straight back up again; “I see Ben, be back in a tick” He dashed for the door, dodging tables, chairs, and people. “Oh god.” Kyle sighed. “How did he ever have the patience to learn instruments?” Arran asked watching Ben’s blond hair, meet with the dark streak that was Luke, and then weave their way over to the table. “Hey Kyle, Arran.” Ben nodded and took Luke’s empty chair, Luke in the mean time, reigned in his energy long enough to sit down, with out springing up like a jack-in-the-box. “Soooooo…… Did you finish the song?” Ben enquired, “I’ve got my computer if you want to have a listen.” 
“Uhhh…… I don’t have the song.” Arran muttered, and then defensively; “But I did email it to you guys” Ben smiled, ""good thing I checked my emails before I came then isn’t it?” He pulled out his shiny new Mac-book Pro and flipped over to itunes, turning the volume down and plugging in a four-way headphone splitter, then after everyone had plugged in their headphones, he started the song.</div>"

""The Italian will do, and just a glass of water will as well."" He said before looking back at his plushie.

He picked her up and began to stroke her hair and hat, it was quite noticable he enjoyed his expensive plushie and basically loved it as well. He kept on staring at it for minutes on end before turning his eyes to look at the musician entering the Deli, where he curiously watched Kyle sit down next to the other band members. Xander never really took part in any school activites so he had little idea of whom they were. He watched the few talk for a minute before shrugging it off and going back to his plushie. He took out his earbuds and plugged them into his phone before scrolling through his music playlist and selecting, 'U.N Owen was her?' which was of course, Flandre's theme. 

He only continued to look and admire the doll, quite content with it as he shrugged off anyone who looked at him weirdly. He continued to wait for his sandwich and drink.</div>"

The boys were debating what to do for a music video, Luke practically jumping up and down in his seat, Kyle was right, there was no way <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> needed a coffee, but that wouldn’t stop him from ordering one.

“Ummm……” Arran looked at the boy, “Sure I guess” Before Luke pulled her attention away saying something along the lines of; “Arran, hey Arran, did you get me a coffee? When can we record the piano part? Do you think it will sound good? I’m hungry, can we get some food?” Arran grinned, “Yes, no, tomorrow, probably, maybe.” And Luke looking a little puzzled sat down to work out what she had meant. Glancing round the shop Arran saw a boy cuddling what to her looked like a doll. This intrigued her, most boys wouldn’t do that, and certainly not in public. The boy himself looked kinda young, round her age, with black hair and dark eyes she could just see. The boy looked lonely, Arran knew that expression well, it was similar to the one she often used to wear. Excusing herself from the table, Arran wove through the shop, before pulling out a chair and plopping down opposite the doll-cuddling boy. “Pardon the intrusion,” she said before she’d even finished sitting down, “It’s just that lot,” she gestured to her group of three, “are idiots, and you looked kinda lonely.”  She leaned her chin on her hands and her elbows on the table.“I’m Arran by the way.”</div>"

Xander looked at the girl sit in front of her where his face turned immediately red as he was caught, in a more ""direct"" way, cuddling his plushie. He pushed Flandre a bit to the side before speaking to her, a bit shy after being caught cuddling his doll.

""Oh...hello...Arran...I'm Xander..."" He said, his eyes trailing away from her a bit.

""Haven't I seen you before, in school I mean? I'm guessing youre in a band..?"" He asked, his eyes wandering off a bit more as to look for Daniel with his sandwich before looking back at the girl.

He was still red, as his ""sessions"" had never been interrupted by anyone, lest he was attracting attention for a fight. He supported his head with his left hand, his arm up with the elbow supporting the arm as to support his head. His right hand always seemed to trail off towards Flandre, which he stroked the doll's dress or hair whilst talking. He made no comment about implying his lonliness, despite it being true.

After a chuckle Daniel handed everyone at the table menus with one extra where Arran had been sittinf. ""I'll be right back with your drinks."" Heading back and behind the counter he first checked when the last pot of coffee was made. It was this morning so he started a new brew, making a mental note to inform the table. Pouring all the other drinks he picked them all up without a tray and headed back. "" Here we are. And the coffee will be ready in a couple minutes. I just started a new pot."" Not knowing who wanted what he had pretty much placed all the drinks in the middle for them to sort out.

His attention was drawn to the back window as an order was called out. Making a B-line back he pulled it down, checked the food to make sure it was correct, and took it out. Making a round he dropped off the orders he had before coming back to Xander's table with his sandwich. ""Here we are. The Italian. May I get you anything else?""</div>"

Arran grinned slightly as Xander turned red and tried not look at her. At the question about school though Arran laughed outright, “Nope, I don’t go to school, haven’t for threeish years so if you’ve seen me it’s been with those idiots or wandering round the city… Although I guess you could have seen one of our few videos?” She gestured at the boys replaying the song yet again, <span class=""bb-i"">how many times could they listen to that thing anyway?</span> “Yes we are a band, although not a very famous one, we do music videos and post them online, but we’ve never done something live unless you count a talent show back when we were six.” She was watching Xander; even though he had been embarrassed, probably about being caught cuddling that doll, his hand still strayed to touch it. Her curiosity catching up to her Arran nodded at the doll and said; “Please excuse my sounding like and imbecile; but who is that, and what is she from?” but before Xander could say anything the boy who was serving laid a plate with a sandwich in front of Xander and asked him if he wanted anything else. With a sudden thought Arran quickly said, “Have you served my noisy lot their drinks?”</div>"

Before Xander could speak up he was interrupted by Daniel, 

""Oh, thank you, that'll be all."" He said before picking at the bread and taking a small piece of it before popping it into his mouth.

He resumed conversation with Arran,

""Oh? That's Flandre Scarlet, she's from a game franchise called Touhou, she appears in the sixth game, Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil, she became REALLY popular, almost everyone in that game did. It's a danmaku slash bullet hell game, pretty fun but super hard."" He said continuing to stroke the doll's hair and dress.

""Hm, I think I may have seen one of your videos before, I prefer videogame music myself, but not bad."" Xander said.

Nodding to Arran's question. ""Everything but the coffee. I needed to put on a new pot."" Another order was in the window. ""Please excuse me."" He headed back and continued moving and taking orders. He wasn't the only one on the job, but the influx of people meant that they were all busy. He greeted people as they walked in and talked with s few of the regulars where he could. 

Sometimes he wished that the deli wasn't located in such a busy area. But of the flip side if it weren't then it could be boring and would not be nearly as fun and he wouldn't get the same amount of hours. For sure there were days where he'd rather stay home and kill time. He'd gone back to watch the old episodes of Sailor Moon. That was his usual MO. Watching things way after other had seen them.

Arran listened to Xander, nodding her head, “We have done a few covers, but…” She was interrupted by a hand on her shoulder, twisting in her seat Arran found Kyle standing behind her, “Sorry for interrupting, but you have to go in twenty minutes,” He lowered his voice, “You don’t normally start chatting with strangers, is something up?” Arran grimaced; her appointment. It might have been important but, having nothing to do with music, she had totally forgotten about it. “Ask Ben for a lift, it’ll get you there faster.” And with that Kyle walked away, leaving her frustrated; of course he would have set an alarm, although how he knew about it was beyond Arran.

Xander repeated about what he said, who Flandre was and where she came from.

""She's my fourth favorite character from the franchise."" He says, before picking up Flandre again and petting the doll's head with his clean hand. 

He left her on his lap, using his other hand to eat his sandwich and drink his water. Though, his eyes shot towards the new person in the Deli, he seemed to bear his teeth upon sight of this fellow. Xander didn't like that type of person, at all, he could tell by how they walked, acted, and dressed.

He eventually turned his gaze back to Arran and continued to pet his plushie.</div>"

Arran listened to Xander smiling slightly. “Mhim, I can see that” she said, smiling outright. “Personally I don’t think I’d be brave enough to cuddle one of those in public, if I had one to cuddle.” Arran thought about it for a second, “Well I do have my teddy, but to cuddle him I’d have to have him.” She frowned for a second, remembering her teddy flung haphazardly across a half-made bed. “Wait… did you say fourth? Than who's the first three? Not that I’d know them if you told me, but I still wanna know!” She perked up there, grinning again; anything to stop the calling spiral into despair, and if there was any day she <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to keep floating, it was today. 

When someone walked into the deli Xander had bared his teeth, not the most obvious gesture but one Arran had picked up anyway. Glancing at the boy who had just walked in, and was looking at his phone, Arran noticed he seemed rich, the sort of rich Arran had lived amongst before, the sort of rich Ben was, the sort of rich that for the most part she hated bitterly. Scrunching up her face Arran could feel the anger building, bubbling up inside, rising, and taking over, an explosion primed to blow. She had to squash it; she had to squash it <span class=""bb-b"">now</span>. Normally she dispersed her anger or despair with music, loud and fast, the words painting how she felt in bright colours on her heart. Taking a deep breath Arran reined in her anger, calming down, reminding herself that here and now was not the time, and anyway; as far as she knew the boy who’d just walked in wasn’t like the rest, it was always a possibility.</div>"

When you’re like me, Arran thought, you gotta have something to be interested in, even if it was a random person who’d piqued her interest.

Xander showed her pictures on his phone of the characters he was describing. All pretty girls. Arran grinned, “No boys what so ever? Sounds like heaven. …Unless of course you’re me and don’t really like girls.” She thought about if for a second, “Although I guess if they’re from a game than they are probably better than real life.” She was smiling sadly again.

""Anyway, besides being in a band, what else interests you, hm?"" He said, his now focused on the pretty rich boy, seeming to stare at him for a while. He only cuddled his plushie even more, as to attract attention to himself, though this time on purpose, what was he planning?</div>"

I quite enjoy doing a lot of things, but mostly I do it by a moment at a time basis, if it interests me right then, then, I am interested by that.

You cuddle her” she nodded at the doll, “In public, but then are embarrassed for being caught. You look lonely but haven’t admitted to it, and you don’t” she paused here for a second “seem to like rich people.” Arran gestured slightly to the boy Xander had been staring at. “Not to mention, you didn’t seem to mind overly much when I just dropped in at your table.”</div>"

""Ay! Wait right there! First off, I am NOT lonely!"" Xander said, obviously denying it as he looked at Arran in a sort of anger, sadness, and annoyance, he beared his teeth, clearly not liking to go on this subject.

""Second of all, I don't CARE what people think about me cuddling Flandre-chan, I was SURPRISED to find somelne directly 'catching' me."" He said, this was half true.

""You could call me 'friendly' if you're wondering about how I don't overreact to you sitting here.

“Ok, Ok, Ok, don’t get your knickers in a twist.” She threw up her hands “You better accept it when someone approaches you offering to be a friend. They don’t come often and when they do they stick around.

Running the tap she looked at herself in the mirror, a lonely girl who just wanted out.</div>"

""H-hey, w-wait!"" Xander said as he reached out his arm as to try and stop her, but failed to do so.

Xander only looked upset as he saw her go ofg, before picking up his backpack and Flandre and sadly heading out the door. He went into the alley next to the deli and saw an emoty trash can which he kicked strongly, sending it flying against the Deli's wall with a 'clang!' 

He yelled out loudly, overflowing with amger, ""BAKA BAKA BAKA BAKA! I'M AN IDIOT! MY ONE CHANCE AT A FRIEND AND I BLEW IT DUE TO MY STUPIDITY!"" 

He only yelled out again, kicking the empty trash can once more before slamming his back against his wall and covering his face with both hands as he, perhaps expected, began to cry. He moved his hands down from his face and cuddled Flandre as to try and ease his emotional pain.

""I f**king blew it....I could have had a friend...and I blew it.."" He said, crying softly, exasperated with his lonliness.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Fantastic;</span> her life was just one long melodrama, <span class=""bb-i"">friggin fantastic</span>. Arran watched tears roll down her face. Tears of anger, rage, hate, but also of loneliness. She wasn’t what you might call pretty, far too much like a boy for that, but with her face scrunched up and tears flowing free, it could only really be called ugly. Wiping her hand across her face, Arran grimaced, she had to get it together, this was a public bathroom, and if there was one thing Arran hated, more than spiders, enclosed spaces, and seeing herself cry, it was someone else seeing her crying. It not only made her look weak, but she felt it as well.

…

Calming down, her anger abating, Arran splashed some water on her face, thankful that no one else had entered the bathroom. Coughing slightly, she gasped for air, her eyes widening in panic as she got none. She was coughing violently, pushing all the air out of her lungs, and so her body, desperately needing air, gasped for it, but to busy coughing to take any in. Closing her eyes she kept trying to breathe. <span class=""bb-i"">It’ll stop soon, five… four… three… two… one</span> Sucking in air, Arran started coughing again, hacking up blood that splattered across herself the sink and the mirror. There wasn’t much really but it had sprayed everywhere, making it look like there was more then there actually was. Gasping and spluttering, she coughed again, spitting out another mouthful of blood.</div>"

Renee nodded in response to Sophia's question and she answered, with a sweat drop on her head, ""Yeah, it is my first time here,"" She then commented ""Never really did a lot of shopping in my spare time,""
She looked at the clock on the wall, as she wondered as to what time it was. Her mind echoed her parents derogatory words about wasting time, and the guilt that came with them swelled once again.</div>"

Gasping Arran focused on her breathing, nothing else, just her breathing, <span class=""bb-i"">in… hold… out… hold… in… hold… out…</span> When her breathing was back to normal, with just the occasional wheeze, Arran blinked and looked around. The coughing that came after she got herself worked up, or after exerting herself too much; that was normal, normal for her at least. But the blood, …that was new. Grabbing a fistful of toilet paper, Arran wiped up the blood, flushing the bloody paper down the loo. Grimacing she looked in the mirror, really all she wanted to do was lock herself in here and never come out, but the realistic side of her knew that that couldn’t happen. She tried to clean herself up best she could but the blood wasn’t gonna come out of her shirt without soaking it in cold water, something she wasn’t going to do here. She could ditch it of course, her shirt, it wasn’t like she wasn’t wearing anything underneath but her shirt was the only thing she had with long arms, and there was no way she was taking that off. She’d just have to hope no one paid her enough attention to see the splattering of blood across her front. There wasn’t a lot of it, but still enough to possibly attract unwanted attention.</div>"

Glancing back at the counter the manager motioned him to continue on. 

Deli Manager:

Having sent Daniel back to work the manager stepped outside and looked back and forth for where Xander had gone. It turned out to be easier than expected as he was making a racket in the nearby alley. Coming around the corner Xander was apparently taking out his anger on the trash cans. The man of course had no time for this and addressed the situation. ""Excuse me young mam. You left without paying.""</div>"

There was a young woman at an adjacent corner of the alley way from Daniel and Xander. She had been staring at the sky mindlessly and for a reason even she didn't understand. The kicking of trash cans and yelling from Xander disturbed her. She stood up, and started to hobble towards the noises. She found where Daniel and Xander was and stood at the very end of the alley. She moved as if she wasn't entirely there, possibly drunk. Her eyes traced the two figures, as she was leaned a but forward. She let her two arms fall by gravity's whim in front of her, completely relaxed. Her face was emotionless. A bag that was strapped around her shoulder fell to the ground next to her. Her clothing was plain, a sweater, shorts, and sneakers. She wasn't blinking, not once.</div>"

@Arran White's location (bathroom)

A soft <span class=""bb-i"">phhsst</span> sound was made in one of the stalls. No, it wasn't a toilet, but rather, it sounded more like a small release of steam. A young woman was heard from one of the stalls making a sigh. She stepped out of the stall, with a metalic syringe in hand. There were a lot of illegal drugs in Trip City circulating in underground gangs, raves, or otherwise. From what the woman could hear in the stall and what she could gather from the appearance of Arran she was confident in the fact that she wasn't hinding the drugs. ""Don't tell anyone,"" she winked, as if she was going to say that she wouldn't tell anyone about the blood, in return about her drug usage. 

She took off her black and blue Techneo Nekeo hoodie, which was a popular mascot character for rave attire in the city and held it up to Arran. ""You look awful, here, take it. Besides, it looks better than what you're wearing,"" She was trying to be nice, but tough at the same time. One of her eyes started to dialate, just once, as a side affect of the recent shot. The girl had a streak of blue in her short A-cut black hair, light blue eyes. She wore all black, minus her blue conbat boots.

The hoodie had a blue streak running down the sleeves, it zipped in the front with two side pockets, and blue cat ears on the hood.</div>"

Arran swore softly under her breath, she hadn’t noticed there was anyone else there, to preoccupied with whatever was in her head at that time. <span class=""bb-i"">Or down her front,</span> Arran thought glancing at the splatters of blood on her ripped shirt. The girl had come out of one of the stalls, the farthest one from Arran. When asked not to tell, Arran had just nodded, really it was none of her business, and if it kept the other girl from mentioning the blood all the better, the fact others would be able to see it was something Arran couldn’t do anything about; until of course the girl offered her hoodie, a nice looking one with …<span class=""bb-i"">ears?</span> Awesome. But Arran was a little hesitant, why? Why would she be offered a nice hoodie like that just cause she looked awful? But really, did she have much choice? On the one hand she could go out as she was, blood all down her front, if she was lucky no one would notice it; not likely. She <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> ditch her shirt, or fold it up so the blood wasn’t visible but with nothing to cover her arms, that wasn’t going to happen. And last, but in no way least; she could take up the offer of the hoodie, hiding the blood and her arms all in one go. This all went through her head in a few seconds, and then something else pressed against her thoughts, “If I borrow it, how would you get it back?” Arran couldn’t think that anyone would just give that sort of hoodie away for nothing.</div>"

The unnamed female took out a sticker out of her pocket. It was a very colorful sticker with black silhouettes dancing indicating a rave party. The text on the sticker said, 'Hell-vitica' and the approximate location where the rave would be held. She put it into one of the hoodie's pocket. ""There's a rave in two days, you could meet me there, besides, the first one is always free."" She winked at Arran.</div>"

“Ok. Sound good.” Arran smiled. “I’ll meet you there then.” She stripped off her shirt, no point in getting blood on the inside of the hoodie, revealing a camo army singlet, pale skin, and a row of faint white scars down one arm, with one or two an ugly red colour, raised and swollen; only a few days old. Running her finger tenderly across one, Arran looked at the other girl to see her reaction.</div>"

The college student smiled in a grin, slightly trying to not smile fully. Before Arran continued, the student put her hand gently on Arran's shoulder, as she was walking past. She tossed the hoodie onto the counter and removed her hand as she walked past Arran and towards the exit. She turned her head back and waved, giving Arran some space, saying, ""I'm sure I'll see you again soon."" Her last expression was another held back smile as she exited the room.</div>"

Shaking her head, totally bewildered, Arran pulled on the hoodie, covering the scars, and folded her shirt so no blood was visible. Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door and slipped out of the bathroom. Glancing around she noticed Xander had left his table and felt a little stab of guilt, that wasn’t cause of her, was it? But she brushed the thought aside, this world didn’t revolve around her, much as she might wish that was the case, and also if she started feeling guilt, she’d start sliding downhill again, which was something she really needed not to do. 

Weaving between the tables Arran headed back to her group, they would probably wonder where she had gone, that is if they had stopped listening to that infernal song long enough to think. Kyle would have noticed of course, whether he was listening to the song or not, but Kyle would notice what happened to her, even if a bomb blew up right under his nose. Sure enough when she reached their table Luke was bouncing off the walls, Ben contemplating something, and Kyle was watching her, but at least they had stopped that song. “Are you OK?” Kyle asked softly, “And where did you get that jumper?” Arran sighed, slid into her chair, and covered her face, “It’s nothing I’m just borrowing it. And I’m fine. Really” she added when Kyle glared at her. “Good” he said “Cause I’d hate for you to upset mum.” Arran slouched down in her chair, “Aunt Cass will be fine. I’m fine. Everything’s fine.” 
“That’s an awful lot of fines for someone with blood on their face.” Kyle stated. Arran just looked at him, sure she’d wiped it all off. “Just here.” He gestured to a spot on his own face and Arran hastily rubbed at that spot on her own. “Actually” Kyle grimaced “You didn’t have any, but that just proved there was blood on you face earlier.” Snarling Arran glared at Kyle, he was far too clever, and that would probably get her in serious trouble one of these days. “So, does that have anything to do with where the jumper came from?” He asked. “Mind your own business.” Arran growled, turning back to the table and asking it as a whole, “Did they deliver that coffee yet?”</div>"

Seeing that his manage accepted the bill and walked off, Daniel let the whole thing go. He was helping some of the guests outside and greeted the unusual girl like he would anyone else. Being a bit distracted he didn't turn back until he heard the bag hit the floor. Work in food service for a while and you'll quickly develop an ear for falling objects. People knocked things over and dropped stuff all the time. It usually meant there was a mess to clean. 

Turning around he saw that it was just a bag this time. That was always a relief, cleaning took more time than he liked. It was then that he truly noticed that the girl looked spaced out or something. He approached and retrieved the bag that was dropped and offered it back to her. ""Are you alright ma'am?

Xander saw the woman run at her and only smirked, she seemed inexperienced enough to spare something show offy on. As she came close, Xander quickly went down in a bridge position before kicking upwards, enough force to deal a nasty injury but not knock out. Both his feet came upwards ramming up the woman's chest and into her face, knocking her backwards before he did the full backflip, coming up standing before opening his arms.

""Go now....I don't want to have to hurt you..."" He said as he cleaned his hands on his jeans.

The woman was taken back by the blow. Her lip bled, maybe she bit herself when she got hit. But she did have a bruise on her jaw as well. She started wheezing from the blow to her chest. She fell sitting on her shins, holding her chest coughing a bit, arching her back fetally towards the ground. She slowly raised herself up.

She looked at Xander, then at Daniel, as if she didn't have any context of what happened. Tears started to flow from her now red face. Her hands were shaking with fear.

Maybe Daniel was old fashioned, but he was always told not to hit a girl. The exception being serious harm and life or death situations. It was one of the reasons he backed off on top of not really liking the idea of fighting. The girl clearly had problems.

And the bag was still there. ""Great."" He picks it up again and tried to work out what to do. This was a lawsuit waiting to happen. Thankfully he hadn't played a part in harming anyone. Putting some distance between himself and Xander, Daniel went back to the door. ""Now you might want to clear out.""

Renee saw the cat and she was surprised to see it cross the busy street and make it to safety. She sighed in relief that the cat was alright. She thought about leaving the cat and continuing on her way, but then she realized that maybe she should check and see if the cat had a collar. She reached the crosswalk waiting for when it was safe and the crosswalk light was green, before she crossed the road, heading towards the other sidewalk.</div>"

The duffel bag was opened, it revealed a work uniform for a tea shop a few blocks down the road. There is a wallet filled with 35 dollars (three tens, and one five,) and an ID card with the woman's information. Her name was Rachael Sandra. Her ID showed her light brown hair down to her shoulders, listed that she had hazel eyes, aged 25 years old. There is nothing else in the bag.

Xander sighs sadly as he watches her run off, only too late did he realize his mistakes, which only further upset him. He took Flaked out of his backpack and cuddled with her as he walked along the street alone, a tear rolling down his right cheek.

""This is why I have no friends.....I'm too much of a freak...if not....I look for an excuse to fight...if only Mother was here..."" He said, hugging the plushie and cuddling with her before placing a kiss upon its head.

He walked past a <span class=""bb-b"">tea shop and a book store</span>, further cuddling the plushie not really caring about anything. It was clear Xander was stressed out, he had messed up twice, he was clearly on the verge of breaking into tears again.</div>"

After paying their bill and leaving the rapidly empting deli, Arran and Kyle split from the others and started walking home. “Urghh… I forgot to get the meat for dinner” Arran groaned, “Aunt Cass is going to kill me, I was supposed to be home early so as to cook.” She was partly mad she had forgotten but mostly she wanted to try and distract Kyle from her incident earlier; he hadn’t said anything in front of the others, but now they were alone there was going to be hell to pay. But instead of asking questions about earlier Kyle surprised her “You missed your appointment you know.” Arran blinked in surprise, “huh?” Kyle turned, walking backwards so as to be able to walk and talk, “You missed your appointment. Your very important appointment” Arran thought about it, “Very important appointment. Uhhhh…… what?” Kyle frowned; “You never told me; I set the alarm after checking your calendar, really; I was surprised that you even had something on there.” 
“You checked my calendar?” Arran grimaced, “why?”
“You never remember anything, unless it’s music, so I thought it would be best to make sure I have an alarm for you as well. Only you had about three things on your calendar one of which was <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> birthday, one was mum’s, and the other unnamed.” Kyle spun back around so he was walking next to her. They walked for a little while; tuning a few corners, and hiking up and down hills, till they finally reached Kyle’s street. Wading through the overgrown grass that overlapped the path they climbed a set of worn concrete steps to a solid door with blue paint peeling to reveal a vibrant red, or maybe the red was peeling to show the blue, but really it didn’t matter, the majority of the door being blue.</div>"

The sudden turn of Renee's head alerted Sophia, and the girl bolted away after apologising that she had to hurry somewhere. Sophia raised her eyebrows to that, then shouted, ""Bye!"" to Renee, knowing the girl wouldn't hear her. Sighing, she walked to the counter, book in hand. 

After paying for the book, she checked the time on her blue digital watch. It wasn't really that late, but maybe it was for Renee. As Sophia pushed the book shop's front door open after waving to the cashier, she saw a boy around her age walking past, cuddling a familiar touhou character plushie, a tear rolling down his cheek. ""Flandre..."" She managed to whisper, recalling the name of the character.</div>"

Xander kept walking until he heard someone whisper the voice of his plushie. He wiped the tear off his cheek and turned around as to meet Sophia.

""Yes.....d-do you know Touhou....?"" He asked, his arms still wrapped around the plushie he cuddled with.

Xander seemed hopeful as to find someone who knew about Flandre and most likely other Touhou characters, it was rare enough to find people ho knew about it, at least for him.</div>"

He had been waiting for a good while too long, as it was getting late. He walked back out to the vehicle, and got in the back. ""What the hell just happened in there?

The boy suddenly turned to face her, which made Sophia raise her eyebrows, quite surprised. She didn't think that the boy would hear her. The boy wiped off his tear, then asked her about touhou.

""Uhm. Oh yes, I do know of it. Well, I have not played the game however, but I have read some manga chapters, though that was some years ago, so I might not remember much of the story. I do know of some of the characters. Well, I'm pretty sure you're quite a fan, huh?"" Sophia replied with a sheepish smile. 

She didn't quite know how to act in front of the boy, in contrast to when she faced Renee. Back then she was too excited about the book to care of she she did, but mostly she was like this, shy, in front of new people.</div>"

The uniform in the bag was familiar. Daniel had visited the tea shop before even if it had been a while. Putting everything back in the bag the boy would leave it here at the office until tomorrow. As he recalled the tea shop closed around the same time the deli did. He worked in the evening so he would have ample time to get it to the tea shop. 

His shift was done so he ordered something for dinner in the last couple of minutes and waited for his ride. Timing it pretty well he got his food just a minute before his ride arrived. Saying goodbye to his coworkers Daniel headed to the car and was on his way home.</div>"

Flopping down at the computer desk, Arran logged into her account on the old, second-hand E-Mac, flicking over to her email and receiving ten new emails from her brother since yesterday, totaling in almost fifty unread emails from him. Slumping down in her chair, she logged out and stared at the login page, not really seeing it, thinking about the day; worse than usual, but in the scale of things not <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> disastrous, just not so good. The hoodie; that was something Arran couldn’t fathom, why had she been given the hoodie, and surely the girl hadn’t just forgotten the drug; it didn’t seem to be the sort of thing you just forgot was in the sleeve of your hoodie when handing it over to a stranger. After getting home she had looked herself in the bathroom as soon as she could, and worked the syringe out of the sleeve from the inside, pulling it out and looking for markings, finding none, but considering the poor lighting in the bathroom, that wasn’t surprising. Now it was tucked safely back in the sleeve of the hoodie, which in turn was tucked in one of her two draws in the boy’s room, somewhere the others were forbidden to access; a rule that was reinforced by an old padlock to which only she had the key. Arran hadn’t told Kyle about the drug, that wasn’t the sort of thing she just told people about, especially Kyle, who couldn’t keep silent if he thought others needed to know, and that ment telling Aunt Cass, the last person in the world Arran wanted to upset. No it was better she didn’t mention it to anybody.</div>"

""Oh, you should try out the games, they're amazing."" He said, holding Flandre in his arms as he looked at her.

""What's your name? I'm Xander...."" He asked.

Xander's eyes looked away from the girl and up to the sun, it was clearly getting late, and he would have to get going soon enough. His eyes looked back down towards the girl and awaited her response. Though as the sun was going down, it was clear there was a slight change in his attitude, he was more vigilant of his surroundings, little things such as the rustling of bushes made his head turn; after all, can't be too careful.</div>"

In the way home he debated telling his mother about the weird events at work today. It might make his mother worry though so he dropped the idea. Glad that the drive home was a short one Daniel headed indoors. His sisters were already getting ready for bed, having to go to school the next morning. That was one thing the boy missed and didn't at the same time. Learning was always fun, even if the subject was less than thrilling. The other side of the coin was the homework and having to sit in lectures. That was rarely much fun. That was bound to come back though whenever he started college though. In the mean time he should enjoy the freedom he had.

Also per usual his dad was asleep already. Work being so far off require him to get up before the crack of dawn which in turn meant an early bedtime. Working evenings himself, Daniel tended to miss most of the happenings of the day. Being hungry he headed to the kitchen which usually contained leftovers. Digging around in the fridge brought forth yesterdays meatloaf. Not much caring having had it two days in a row he threw some on a plate along with some green beans and corn. A short heat in the microwave and a drink on the side Daniel took his meal upstairs to his room.

Ah, now no one would bother him. That was the other advantage to working in the evening. By the end of the day everyone else was too tired to bug him much, with exception to his day to do chores. And staying up late playing games and killing time wasn't a bother because he didn't have to get up early either. Watching videos on Youtube while eating he ran through his mind the events that transpired. Slightly hard to believe it happened even having watched it with his own eyes. On top of seeing what appeared to be a drugged woman that kicked him away, there was the boy who walked out without paying flipping over and kicking the aforementioned away. How would own even explain that brief moment in time. 

Shaking his head and sighing he finished eating and went to playing a game. Tomorrow could  be an interesting day as well. Maybe not quite as crazy but he had the bag to return. The reaction to such a thing could vary.</div>"

She noticed him looking up to the sun that was illuminating the place with an orange glow, indicating that it was setting. It must be pretty late for him. And for her too.

""Do you have to go now?"" She questioned him, tilting her head to the side. It was a habit that she do that when not sure of something.</div>"

""Not really, do you...erm...wish to talk a bit more or something..?"" He asks, a bit unsure of what to say.

___________________________________________________

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">INTRODUCTION</span></span>
In 'A Slice of Mechanical Life' the GM (Fleeter), may at will, generate scenario posts that force players to engage a response to. By doing so it affects the story of the world and how future scenarios will be generated. While there is no active scenario, players, including the GM (if desired), will roleplay as normal considering the current setting and limitations. In the beginning the world will be very normal anime/manga slice of life. Play and do whatever you want as long as it is grounded in reality. Eventually players will be granted powers, of which players have no choice over, basically, ""SURPISE!"" Players will also be granted items, abilities, or weapons they otherwise would not have found on their own in the world.

Note that the world is typically modern day, so if you have powers to fly, police might take notice. It's up to you whether you want to do it, and obviously you would be specifying if you were sneaking at night, or doing it in a crowd. Either way, these actions have good or bad consequences and may trigger an event.


<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">WORLD INFORMATION</span></span>
For simplicity's sake there is only 1 city, <span class=""bb-b"">TRIP CITY</span> that players must stay in. You can leave the outskirts of the city and enter forested or otherwise realistic terrain, but that is as far as you're allowed to go. We can't have characters all the way in other countries-- it would get too complicated. Players can make up any part of the city as long as it is grounded in reality. For example a mall, arcade, colleges, parks, highways, etc., as long as it is set in modern day. There should be nothing unusual unless it is a GM scenario, or you gained a power/item. Trip City may alter in appearance and function as the RP continues.


<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">RULES</span></span>
---Do not ignore the GM's rules ;)
---To have an accepted character they must be 'slice of life' material. So they must be grounded in reality of anime/manga. Otherwise there is no limitation on age, occupation, or whatever! You do not start off with any powers!
---All characters not accepted in the 'Characters' tab can be played by a GM. For example if you made a little sister outside the 'Characters' tab, the GM could control her. Maybe she'll just act sweet, or she might turn into an alien. Who knows! For example, your highschool teacher or classmates.
---At least 2 sentence posts.
---Don't RP as a currently controlled GM character. For example, if your sister turned into a monster currently, you can't attack her and say that she's suddenly not a monster because you said so.
---You can't request a power/item/skill you will be granted it depending on your actions.
---If you don't like any of the ideas presented here, in IC, or whatever, maybe this RP isn't for you. This is very experimental.
---If you don't respond to an activity check, which will happen at random times (mostly if too many people become too inactive) your character will be taken over by the GM. You will have to request your character back. At that time will we usually accept more applicants.</div>"

I wanted to talk about an issue I'm having. It's about fighting. I was thinking when players roleplay fights between a GM, make sure not to specify if your attacks hit or not and the GM post that comes after will let you know which attempts hit, missed, did damage, or not with the reply post. 

Good Example: Player 1 performs a kick towards his stomach, then punches at his face.
Bad Example: Player 1 performs a kick that hits his stomach, then punches at his face causing his teeth to fall out.

Does that sound alright, or is there a better way to do it?

Limitations/Weaknesses: Her main limitations are her own physical fitness, since flying requires a great amount of energy and she isn’t allowed outside with proper space to practice her actual flying skills are sub-standard and would probably not hold up well in an outdoor environment. She also does not have the natural instincts of a bird, meaning she is rather clumsy and awkward in the air.

Name: Johnathan Amyas   

Alias: Sanguine   

Age: 26

Height: 6'

Weight: 180lbs   

Power:

- Blood Consumption   

- Blood Manipulation  

- Blood Empowerment

- Blood Pressure Manipulation 

Strengths:   

- Enhanced Cardiovascular System: Because John has the ability to make his heart pump faster than normal, his cardiovascular system has slowly adapted to accommodate his power without causing him undo harm (heart attack, blood clotting, ruptured veins). 

- Accelerated Metabolism: John's power to accelerate his heart affected his metabolism permanently, speeding it up to the point where he could eat whatever he wants and he won't gain weight. This doesn't mean that he is always healthy; eating half a dozen boxes of donuts still affects his physical fitness, he just won't gain the weight.

- Resistant to Iron: This doesn't refer to the material iron, it refers to the iron in blood. John's physiology has mutated so his body does not react negatively when it consumes large quantities of blood, as iron is corrosive to the stomach lining. John is still susceptible to Iron poisoning but it takes nearly 10 times the normal amount to cause his body harm.

- Self-Defense Knowledge: John has limited self-defense knowledge. He understands the basics how to properly throw a punch and how to defend against a choke-hold but anything involving martial arts training is missing.

Limitations/Weaknesses:   

- Dependency: After several years of consuming blood to help treat his anemia (see below) John has developed a dependency on it. He is still able to eat normal food to sustain him and take medication to treat his ailment, but they don't seem to work as well without a pint of blood to go with it. Over time, John will exhibit withdrawal symptoms similar to those associated with alcoholism. During this time, John is unable to use his powers effectively.

- Anemic: John suffers from anemia, a blood condition that is defined as a decrease in Red Blood Cells or hemoglobin in the blood. There are numerous ways to treat anemia but the best way that John has found is by consuming blood.  

- Iron Poisoning: Even with his mutated physiology, John is still susceptible to iron poisoning. If he consumes too much blood then he will start to suffer the effects of iron poisoning. This can start with simple drowsiness and end with death due to liver failure or brain damage.

- Blood Limitations: John is only able to manipulate his own blood (inside or otherwise) or spilled blood of others. He cannot manipulate the blood of someone else if it is inside their body.</div>"

Age: 23

Height: 5,8 feet

Power: 

- Duplication. ~ Able to duplicate himself, making multiple clones of himself.
- Copy-Cat ~ Able to copy another's powers or skills.
- Creation. ~ Able to create objects with his mind.

Limitations/Weaknesses: 

- The power of duplication has a limit, for now Johnny can't duplicate him more than two times, for the fact of energy that it takes from him. Because of this, he can only create two clones of himself.

- The power of Copy-Cat has a certain weakness, for Johnny has to first see the power, knows how it gets used and before even being able to use it himself, he has to see it and even get hit by it. Although it's a strong power, Johnny can only copy one person his powers, if he starts copying someone else, the powers from the person before are all erased.

- The power of creation has the weakness of how much he can create, how many, and how big/small it is. Johnny still has to train his stamina, and because of this he can only create small things like a knife, a tiny box, a small painting, etc. because of this, Johnny still can't create weapons/armor/etc for the entire team.

Extra:

Johnny has gained a split personality because of the experiments, this is why he sometimes seems sweet, and the other time suddenly becomes evil.
Johnny has glasses, although they don't hold back his eye-sight. Ever since the experiments, he doesn't need them anymore, but just enjoys having them on his face. When takes off, this means his evil-side has took control.</div>"

The room was large, but simple; four walls all plain off-white with no windows to be seen. This was the ‘Muta-Gen Project’ section of the building, so the walls were thick and soundproof and there was no natural light or a single window to be seen in the entire section of the building. This was the recreational room of the section; it had two single white doors reinforced with steel; one led to a small bathroom and the other to a hallway that led to the other living areas.

A group of New-Ins were due today. At least she guessed they were, it was always a little hard to tell in here, what with everything being controlled by external forces and no real light to tell when time passes so the schedule was the only thing she had to go off. She had lost count of the days she’d been here, had no idea what day it was, month, year even. She had no idea how old she was anymore. Glancing over at the corner she grimaced slightly, unsure what was worse; to remember the outside world and have a chance to miss it, or to never know that freedom at all.

She’d never heard the small girl in the corner speak, so only knew her as ‘Sabrina’ which was what a lot of the guards referred to her as. As usual she sat in the corner quietly, drawing strange pictures at a little table that had been set up for her. Apparently she was a psychic, again all this was just things she’d picked up from bits of conversations, she’d never actually seen her use any of her powers but had mostly given up on trying to talk to her. She only ever got the silent treatment or nods and shrugs. She couldn’t really hold it against her though it must have been hard growing up in a place like this.

The door opened and she looked up again, glancing over the new arrivals. Standing up she walked over to them, her wings extending very slightly as she walked. It was a small group this time, four all fairly young looking adults. Stopping in front of them she smiled gently. “Hi, look I know it’s probably not much consolation for all you’ve gone through but I wanted to welcome you to the project. My name is Lilly, but most people around here call me Raven for fairly obvious reasons. If you need anything, have any questions; feel free to let me know. I was one of the first arrivals here, so I am used to getting New-In’s like yourselves settled in. Oh… sorry New-In’s is the word we made up for newbies. Sorry about that.”</div>"
4249,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-05 02:35:00,Enkeli,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Call him Sanguine.”

“Why?”

“By definition, the word means a ‘blood-red’ color. And after what we’ve seen him do, what we’ve made him do, it seems appropriate.”

“Should we give him any medication? He’s gone several days without anything and his powers are fairly limited at the moment. Aren’t you afraid that he might die?”

“He’s lasted this long. A couple more days won’t kill him. He’s strong.”

John shivered profusely; his arms shaking, sweat dripping off his brow, eyes completely bloodshot. He couldn’t struggle, there was no point. The bright white light of the room he was in burned his eyes, made his head want to explode, every sound was the volume of a freight-train. The cold, metal table he lay on send pricks of cold up his naked torso; it would have offered relief if it wasn’t so uncomfortable. While he waited his 
mind attempted to recall anything beyond the last few days.

The last thing that he remembered was waking up at home, having breakfast, getting ready for work, and then answering his front door. Then he woke up somewhere and had no idea about what had happened. He only remembered…

Pain.

Whoever was doing this to him really wanted to know what made him tick, really wanted to know how he could do what he did. He’d never had so much blood taken from him at one time, and with his anemia, drawing too much blood was never a good thing. They’d pumped him full of vitamins and electrolytes and all kinds of other drugs but nothing to satiate his hunger; he was, quite literally, starving. They’d taken to calling him “Sanguine” which, after he heard two people talking about it, he found quite fitting. He would have even found it enjoyable if his brain wasn’t being poked around in. This went on for, what he could only assume, days but it could have been even longer.

Eventually he was moved, on a gurney no less, to a room where he was instructed to put on bright white clothing. He felt like a test subject.

But at this point he basically was.

He was then guided out a doorway into a brightly lit, off-white, corridor occupied by 3 other people. He didn’t make eye contact, believing it was some sort of test and if he screwed up he would have his brain prodded again. The walk seemed, to him, go on forever. Every step he took was like a hammer to his temples, his heart pounding in his chest – and not by his own accord. The hallway came to an end at a reinforced metal door.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Another holding cell…?’</span> He thought.

The door clicked open and buzzed, the sound was torturous on his ears and it made him almost keel over in pain. It opened up into another brightly lit, off-white room.  From what John could tell, there were only two other people in the room: a young girl, curled up in a ball in the corner, and a woman probably not much younger than himself.

The startling feature of the young woman, which he refused to believe because of how he was being treated, was her massive black wings that twitched as they entered. He glanced to his right, feeling the whole world swim around him. His head was heavy; it reminded him of being drunk on whiskey except this wasn’t nearly as enjoyable. Come to think of it, neither was being drunk on whiskey.

“I know it’s probably not much consolation for all you’ve gone through but I wanted to welcome you to the project.” The woman said. “My name is Lilly, but most people around here just call me Raven for fairly obvious reasons…”

John tuned her out. <span class=""bb-i"">‘Great…another cheerleader.’</span> He thought. It hurt to think and trying to interact with anyone and formulate words would be futile. He stumbled over to the right of the room, trying desperately to find a wall to grab onto. He felt the side of the wall and tried to lean up against it but he misjudged the distance and tumbled to the ground. He thrust his arms out in front of him and managed to stop himself from falling completely to the ground but his weight was too much for his weakened state. John collapsed on the off-white floor and proceeded to pull himself along the ground the few inches that he had missed and leaned up against the wall.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Oh shit…’</span>

He felt his stomach churn, his whole world spinning. John expelled what little was in his stomach onto the floor beside him, which wasn’t much seeing as how the only thing that had sustained him over the past…well…however long, were liquids. Strangely, he felt better after vomiting, but not by much. He felt good enough to speak even just a little.

“Food. When do we eat…?” He said weakly.</div>"

""No, but now I know. Edward is a feisty bugger.""

""No, don't use his real name. It'll start getting personal after awhile. Call him Blur.""

""Why? He'll sound like a superhero or something.""

""Call it Blur, because that's all we can see when it gets serious and so the others will know to be careful around him.""

""Look, he's awake now.""

""Gas'em, we'll give it another sedative before we can move it.""

Edward suddenly felt even dizzier, his already blurry vision left him as he slowly lost consciousness. After what seemed like a short nap, the kind he would have during school, he awoke to find himself being nudged into a hallway. He knew the medication or whatever chemicals they had given him had already worn off, or were losing their effectiveness. Making his way through the door at the end, along with the others, he entered another white room. <span class=""bb-i"">A white room? Am I in an asylum?</span> In no time at all a winged girl approached him, or rather the group, and greeted them attempting to give them a warm reception. ""The project? So you do you know what's going on? I don't remember much aside fro.."" Edward was interrupted as another person in the group began to vomit onto the floor, the boy jerked himself further away from him as he expunged his previous meal, the man on the floor then weakly asked for food. Feeling his own stomach rumble slightly Edward couldn't help but sympathize, although he was slightly disgusted by the vomit on the floor he carefully attempted to lift him up. ""I'm with him, when does lunch come?"" Edward asked as he gingerly reached out to the man.</div>"

""What did I tell you? Kryos is strong. Her will seems to be playing a part too.""

""Shouldn't we give her a break? She's been really cooperative.""

""Well, I suppose so. Send her to the recreational room, then bring in another subject. Oh before that, reward her with some glucose injection. It's been five days since the last one.""

The freezing cold water in the cylindrical water tank was drained, causing her to be sprawled across its base. The transparent glass door opened, and two men in lab coats pulled out the oxygen mask on her face and the waterproof wires that were attached to her body. Caerulea was then given a towel to wrap around her cold, trembling, and naked body. She did so, exhaustion evident in her movements and expression. She was panting, and her breaths formed mists as they came out of her mouth.

Over the past few days, she might have adapted to the freezing temperatures of the water they submerged her in, but being in there for the past five hours made her exhausted still, plus the fact that her energy was all spent long before. They had experimented on her ever since she was brought here, the experiments mostly based on cold temperatures. They had also taken blood samples and studied her brain, all without giving her any food. They did inject some glucose in her at some point, but that was it. There was plenty of water, though. She didn't resist as she thought it was useless, and would only waste her energy.

With that, she was injected with some glucose and given some bright white clothes to wear, then guided out of the room to a corridor where there were three others who were also guarded. They led them to a white door reinforced with steel, which Caerulea figured was the one leading to the recreational room. 

The guards opened the door, ushered them in, then closed the door shut. She and the others were greeted by a woman looking some years older than her, smiling and introducing herself as Lily. She was surprised at the raven wings that slightly extended as Lily greeted them. Glancing around the large, white-painted room, Caerulea saw another girl in a corner, sitting at a table and drawing something. 

One of the people who were with her vomited out some liquid to the floor, causing her to scrunch up her nose, but she knew that he had probably gone through a lot too. One other person who was also with her before reached out a hand to the man to help him up, and said something about food.

""Yeah, I'm sure we'd all like to eat. Do they serve food here? Also, we're in a project?"" She questioned.</div>"
4252,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-06 23:02:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Raven winced as one of the New-Ins hurled his guts up onto the floor and she stepped back slightly, her wings spreading out just a little at the action and she then looked around at the others, nodding slightly before she turned to the guards, a slight glare on her face. “You heard them boys, go do your job why don’t you?” She quickly snapped, getting a rather odd reaction from them. There were brief looks of fear on their faces before they left the room hurriedly. As the only remaining guard came to clean up the mess Raven moved the new group over to the wall, pulling down a section that turned into a table kind of like a Murphy bed.

Sliding another section away she began pulling out chairs, enough for the four new arrivals, herself and Sabrina, should the girl decide to join them, which she doubted. She’d been here too long. She thought to herself as she did this. Everything was too familiar. Too comfortable. Unfortunately this was a psychological side effect of the New-Ins, their scared and confused faces reminded her that this wasn’t normal. Still, she couldn’t let that shake her. They needed her right now. “You’re all welcome to sit down; they’ll bring you something in a few moments.” She eventually said, though there was a distinct difference between her voice a few moments ago and now.

Deciding to do her best to answer the other girls question Raven forced herself to perk up a little and smiled at her. “It’s probably the best word I’ve come up for it yeah. It’s kind of complicated… I don’t want to overload you guys too much. Once you’ve got some food in you we’ll talk about it a bit more. But you can rest assured that the worst part is all over now.” For a moment there was a sad look in her eyes, sympathy for what they must have gone through and bits of painful memories from her own experiences. “I know it’s not much consolation now, after everything.” She then added.

After what could only have been about five or ten minutes the two guards returned, carrying massive platters of food in great variety though one would quickly note that it was all very healthy, not one artificial flavour or sweetener seemed to be on those platters and a lot of it was very high energy, nutritional food. “There’s plenty more where that came from, eat as much as you need.” Raven encouraged as she picked up an apple and bit into it contently. Pausing for a moment she glanced over at Sabrina, who quickly looked away when they made eye contact.

She’d never had the girl join her for food either. A few pitchers of water were placed on the table and the guards moved away to let the now fairly large group enjoy their meal. Once again she looked over to Sabrina as a small bowl of something she couldn’t see was brought over to her, however unlike them the guard placed it a fair distance away from her before quickly retreating. Ever since that incident one day they had become afraid to approach her. She didn’t blame them. The girl had thrown a guy across the room, shattering several bones in the process. She was a little enigma that one.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Yes i am asured that it is safe now to move him around. Although we beter keep those chains around him, and give him a new pair of glasses. We still don't know how massive his two power are.</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Even though he just has two powers, we still don't know their true limits. He has weakened by our little tests, and yet his body seems to be perfectly fine. How does he manages that?!</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Who knows, perhaps there is more to him, than the eye shows. Now let him join the others and let's see what will happen.</span></span>

The boy moved trough the room, although his body was filled with needleholes, scars and clothes that seemed to be older than 10 years, and yet the clothes were just a few weeks old. As he walked trough the room, his chains clinged against one another. He couldn't wait to be released from them, for he just wanted to take the lives of these wretched beings!
As the door opened up, four guards walked in with electrical sticks, making it possible for them to get him out of the room without being harmed themselves. As the boy walked trough the corridor, he suddenly was halted and a guard walked up to him to replace his clothes and to bring new glasses. They didn't wanted to gain certain attention to them it seemed, although the boy didn't knew why.
As they reached the end of the corridor, there was a door blocking their path, as it opened up he glanced inside, and noticed the others. Did he had to join these others for the rest of his time here?
He didn't truelly cared for the girl whom tried to explain everything, as for the boy that started to vomit, the only thought that he had was of how weak he must have been.
As guars entered the room with food, a third guard walked up to a girl in the corner to place a bowl of food just a few meters away from her. Were they afraid of her? How fascinating! A fourth guard walked in, and walked up to the boy as he placed a key into his shakkles and released him from his chains. He wasn't hungry, well not just yet, so he didn't walked up to the table, instead the boy walked towards a corner and sat down, placing his eyes upon the lonely girl in the corner. She had caught his interrest, and he wanted to know why none of the guards would even dare to get closer to her.</div>"
4254,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-08 12:12:00,Enkeli,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">“Get your hand away from me!” John growled. In all honesty, it was too tempting to have anything full of blood too close to his face. He needed to eat something before he ate someone and he wasn’t really into that; at least not anymore. He scurried away further into a corner before curling up and shivering, his face growing paler by the second.

“You heard them boys, go do your job why don’t you?” She snapped.

John watched through folded arms as the girl, Raven was her name, pulled a section of the wall out and folded it into a table. One guard came in with a mop and rag and started to clean up the vomit that lay on the floor; a steaming pile of odd coloured liquid.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘How easy it would be…he’s not even looking…bite him. DO IT!’</span>

John shook his head, instantly regretting the decision of doing so. He watched the guard move his arm back and forth, back and forth, forcing himself to focus only on that.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Bitehimbitehimbitehimbitehimbitehim…’</span>

“No…I won’t…I won’t….No…” John said quietly to himself. He buried himself in his arms more, hiding his face from everyone else.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘BITEHIMBITEHIMBITEHIMBITEHIMBITEHIM!’</span>

“I’m not a vampire…I don’t do that!” John hissed at himself quietly again.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘DO IT YOU PARASITE!’</span>

John went to lash out at the guard only to discover that he was gone. How long had he been zoned out like this? Another man had entered the room, still younger than him, and saw that he had been shackled.

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Jeez. What can he do?’</span>

Chairs had been pulled out and now food was being brought in by two guards. Massive platters of food: chicken, vegetables, fruit, red meat, it was all incredibly healthy; which John didn’t mind.

‘Where’s the good stuff!?’

“There’s plenty more where that came from, eat as much as you need.” Raven said, picking up an apple and taking a large bite out of it.
The two guards paused at the door.

“Hey…uhhh…don’t you have something for that one?” One of them said, motioning towards John.

“Oh. Yeah. That freak is definitely that: a freak. Guy drinks blood just like a vampire.” The other said, reaching for something out in the hall.

“Hey. Do you think if we brought him out in the sunlight he’d sparkle?” One laughed.

The other laughed as well, but quickly quieted down as he approached John. He had a small cardboard box in his hand and cautiously walked towards John. He popped the top of it open and showed John the contents.

John’s eyes went wide.

Two bags of blood. Two pints of red, delicious goodness.

“Don’t get too excited, Edward. We’ve gotta keep your strength up if we want you to perform.” He said with a grin, placing the box down on the ground.

John looked up, and then lurched forward quickly, startling the guard.

The guard stumbled and drew a long stick like device, the end crackled to life. John grinned menacingly.

“You go first.” He said. “I promise.”

The guard scrambled backwards, sheathing the stick and half running, half tripping out the door. The guard at the door looked at John and stifled a smile before walking away.

John tore into the first blood bag and greedily started to devour the contents. The blood was cold, which was depressing, warm blood was always so refreshing. He felt a stream miss his lips and cascade down his chin, no doubt falling onto his shirt. He instantly started to feel better; his strength returning, his body recovering from the horrible things he’d been subjected to. He sucked the last bit of scarlet liquid out of the bag and tossed it aside. He sighed out loud.

“That was refreshing.” He said with a smile, laying down on his back and staring at the white ceiling. He had learned a while ago to pace himself while he drank, even if he was starving. Nothing was worse than iron poisoning and he’d come close a few times too many. He placed his hands palms down on the floor behind him and rolled backwards, kicking his legs up and forward, and spring-boarded up off the floor. He grabbed his blood bag and popped the top off, sucking on it like some kind of demented juice box.

He pulled a chair out and sat down, grabbing a peach and rolling it over in his hand. The broken down man who first entered the room was gone, now only a powerful, confident man stood in his place. He took a bite out of the peach and swallowed, taking another sip off his bag.

“They call me ‘Sanguine’. It’s stupid. But it sounds better than John. So what’s the plan? When do we leave?”</div>"
4255,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-10 08:10:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sabrina looked over her shoulder as the guard placed the bowl of fruit on the floor near her. Pushing the chair out she reached out and picked it up, walking back over to her little corner and placing it beside her before she began eating. As she began eating one of the pencils began floating and making marks along some of the paper, causing her to smile slightly. However it suddenly fell to the ground and she frowned for a moment before turning to look at a boy with brown hair. Her deep blue eyes stared at him for a while, as if confused as to what he was doing before she eventually looked back to the food and the pencil resumed drawing.

Raven watched the boy who went to sit near Sabrina curiously, wanting to see how she reacted. The girl had never been aggressive towards her or other ‘subjects’ for lack of a better word, only guards so she doubted there would be another incident of someone flying across the room unless he behaved aggressively towards her first. She was more interested in the man with the black hair and his reaction to the guard being close to him. There was a look of… hunger in his eyes possibly and she found her interest peeked, especially when he just waltzed over to them after consuming what could only have been blood and having a very sudden change of personality.

She’d heard of people getting angry when they were hungry but she was sure that boy would have attacked that guard if he had been there a few seconds longer. Instantly she was put on edge, her posture became stiff, action ready and her wings unfurled very slightly as she readied to jump back at a moment’s noticed if he turned on them. Not that she was seated closest to him, so the chance of him going for her first was low and he seemed content now. It just made her aware that she could not let her guard down for a moment around him no matter what.

“Plan?” She repeated eventually, once she’d finished her mouthful. “There is no ‘plan’. There is no ‘leaving’ I’m sorry, I’ve been in here a while but you can’t honestly expect me to believe that there are people walking around out there with wings or people on fire or things like that. This is a top secret government project… I’m sorry to have to tell you this but you’re all here for the rest of your lives…” However long they may be. She added grimly in her mind. The truth was that the life expectancy of people in here wasn’t extensive and lives were often cut short.</div>"

""No would have been fine dude."" Edward said, he watched as the man crawled into a corner. Wow whatever these guys did to him was way worse than what I got. A few moments later the guards finally entered with food in their hands, after placing down multiple items on a table Edward briskly walked over. Edward took no time to pick out his food, he was starving, and the food had arrived. 

Digging down into a many dishes at once Edward began slowly chowing down on his food, keeping his manners in mind he used various utensils when needed, but in a few seconds he had unknowingly accelerated his eating speed. In a few seconds a few of the bowls and plates had already been picked clean. Holding back a burp with his hand he began to speak up softly. ""Excuse me."" 

Looking back up Edward noticed the man, soon to be revealed as John or rather Sanguine, was sucking on a blood bag. However as soon as John finished he wasted no time in terrorizing a guard, and seemingly entertaining the other. <span class=""bb-i"">This dude is a definite creeper</span>. Edward thought to himself, in a few seconds time John asked about a plan to escape, but Raven quickly shot him down. ""There isn't a plan now, but shouldn't we make one? I don't imagine any of us actually want to stay here, even if this is a 'government' project."" Edward replied, making air quotes with his fingers.</div>"

As the girl who he was observibg suddenly uses her powers he grins. A power he seemed to enjoy, it was strong and powerful, but for now he wanted to keep the power he had stolen from someone else, for it was what kept him on his feet all this time and he was glad it did.
As he overheard the group talking about a plan, a laugh escaped his lips and filled the entire room.
<span class=""bb-b"">""You guys truelly believe there is a way out? Even if we should use our powers, they will overwhelm us. They know what we can do, which means they probably also have a way to stop us, let alone let us leave this wretched place.""</span>
He took of his glasses as he spoke, and looked over at the group. It was true that he had a split personality now, and he always tried to supress the evil one, but even now it emerged from him and took control.
<span class=""bb-b"">""You are fools for thinking that this place can be breached, that you can escape. Be glad you are alive you morrons, for there must be test sucbjects who haven't survived. Aren't there miss winged beast.""</span>
He looked towards the girl with the wings, as a dark grin appeared on his face. Whom knew a power that useless would be among them. The only thing she would be good for, was to scout ahead and not be noticed, but in here she couldn't even spread them and fly towards the sky.</div>"
4258,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-13 23:02:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Raven was about to speak when the boy who’d gone to sit over by Sabrina spoke. However when he referred to her the way he did she flinched visibly before looking down, her wings dropping slightly as they pulled in tighter to her body. “He’s right.” She eventually spoke, her voice soft but haunting, nothing like the gentle, caring tone it had before. “The success rate of the project at the moment… is only about ten percent, meaning for every one of you… there were nine other people taken… nine casualties. And out of us nine… less than half survive the first year.”

She didn’t go into any details around those deaths, didn’t want to give people ideas. “The thought has crossed everyone’s mind sooner or later, some sooner, some later when they think they’re powerful enough. No one has succeeded as yet. He’s right; they know all of our powers and prepare methods to combat them before you’re released into this section of the program. If an escape attempt is made and you don’t die in the process… they take you away. Where you go even I don’t know. But no one’s ever come back.”

In the corner Sabrina shivered, her eyes darkening slightly, indicating she may know than she was letting on. However the next thing Reaper would feel was a very firm push against him; that could knock him over fairly easily. “Aiden! That wasn’t nice.” Sabrina suddenly said, quiet enough that anyone easily could have missed it. Looking across the table at seemingly nothing the girl frowned before looking over to the boy, her eyes slightly fearful now, as if someone had just warned her he was dangerous and she should stay away.</div>"
4259,Muta-Gen,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75998-muta-gen,['Casual'],2015-02-14 00:25:00,Enkeli,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">John continued taking bites out of his peach; to others it would seem as if he had relaxed, but he was ready in case any of them attempted to attack him. He eyed the Raven carefully, she knew more than she was letting on and he didn't like that.

“Plan?” The Raven repeated after John. “There is no ‘plan’, there is no ‘leaving’ I’m sorry.” I've been in here for a while but you can’t honestly expect me to believe that there are people walking around out there with wings or people on fire or things like that. This is a top secret government project…I’m sorry to have to tell you this but you’re all here for the rest of your lives…”

John sipped at the bag. “Wait. So you’re saying that the government kidnapped us because we are special?  How did they know how to find us? Who’s in charge of this place?”

The man beside him proceeded to absolutely devour his food, moving even faster than what was possible. He covered a burp with his hand and said a soft “excuse me”.

 “There isn’t a plan now, but shouldn’t we make one? I don’t imagine any of us actually want to stay here, even if this is a ‘government project’."" He said.

John shrugged, taking another bite off his peach. “I wouldn’t want to stay here regardless. I don’t know if the rest of you got the same treatment I did but my brain was LITERALLY poked with a metal rod!” He said, hissing out the “metal rod” part. “This isn’t the first time the government has fucked me over and, if I survive this, it most likely won’t be the last.”

A laugh escaped the man in the corner. At first John thought he was laughing at the girl but his next words said otherwise.
“You guys truly believe that there is a way out? Even if we should use our powers, they will overwhelm us. They know what we can do, which means they probably also have ways to stop us, let alone leave this wretched place.” He said.

John took another bite of his peach, bringing the fruit down to its core. He took one last sip from his blood bag before setting it on the table, a small amount still in the bottom. He picked up an apple and started on it next.

“You are fools for thinking that this place can be breached, that you can escape. Be glad you are alive you morons, for there must be test subjects who haven’t survived. Aren’t there, Miss Winged Beast?”

John saw Raven flinch visibly, her wings tightening to her back.

“He’s right,” she said, “the success rate of the project at the moment…is only about 10 percent, meaning for every one of you…there were nine other people taken…nine casualties. And out of us nine…less than half survived the first year.” She said.
 
John wasn’t sure if this was a scare tactic or if she was telling the truth. How did she know so much about what was going on? Obviously she had been here longer than all of them combined, but an exact number like the one she had thrown out…either she was an impressive liar or she was in on it.

John placed his apple back down on the table. “First of all,” he said, addressing the boy in the corner, “don’t refer to her as a beast, it’s impolite. Second, step away from the girl, I believe you’re scaring her. Isn’t he, sweetheart? Thirdly, fuck you. You’re stuck in here with the rest of us so you’re equal parts moron as the rest of us. It’s people like you who really bug me, ya know? Act all high and mighty but yet don’t realize that they are in the same sinking boat as the rest of the world and always thinking that they’re too good to bail out the water.”

John looked around the room, the scattered faces In front of him. “We’re different, some more than others,” he looked at Raven as he said that, “so either us ‘freaks’ stick together, or we fall apart. We all made it this far, didn’t we? I have no problem being complacent as long as I don't get killed. We all look out for each other, we all help each other if we need it. Does everyone agree?""</div>"

""There is a way out, there is a way to escape. Somehow the regular's got in, and somehow we got in? That's obvious. But it also makes sense that they would make defenses against our powers. I was just hoping you adults would have had some idea of what to do."" With his idea shot down Edward continued listening. Raven eventually gave out surprisingly accurate statistics for a survival versus death rate, thinking about the other people that died sent cold shivers down his spine.

As the conversation advanced the other man began to insult them all, calling them morons and fools. <span class=""bb-i"">You're in the same boat as us dummy</span>. As Edward thought this John apparently thought the same thing as he voiced a similar retort. <span class=""bb-i"">I'm starting to like this guy</span>. John quickly proceeded to defend Raven after the man insultingly called her a winged beast. I kinda thought that would be a cool name, if he didn't say it like that. Edward thought to himself, still watching the conversation play out.

During what seemed to be the closing statement of the conversation John began to say that he was fine being captured, as long as he didn't die, but he also promised that he would look out for the rest of the group if they did the same to him. Edward nervously rubbed the back of his neck. ""Well we don't seem to have a plan, and strong arming our way it is <span class=""bb-u"">way</span> out of the question. I guess being here and nice is all we can do. So yeah, I guess I agree."" Edward spoke, his thoughts were drowned in uncertainty as he pondered his current situation.</div>"

Raven sighed softly. She wasn’t sure if the girl would ever come out of her shell. However the ideas being expressed around the table made her smile slightly. “I will stand beside you.” She promised, trying to be more cheerful about the situation. “And use the knowledge I have to help you in any way possible.” She looked over to the boy sitting near Sabrina before looking away quickly again.

“I’m afraid I don’t know much about the girl over there. I don’t know her real name… the guards call her Sabrina, they say she has psychic powers. She’s very reserved… I’ve never gotten her to speak to me but she doesn’t like the guards, threw one of them across the room one time without even touching him because he got too close. She doesn’t seem to mind me… or people like us… but that doesn’t mean I’d get too close if I were you.” The last part she spoke louder, directing it towards the boy sitting near her.

He seemed eager for action and more than a little scary. She’d hate to see him upset Sabrina and then get into a fight with her. Without knowing his powers extensively it was impossible to say who would win. But she’d be damned if she sat around and let him beat up on a little girl. “I think it best if we try not to fight amongst ourselves though. Sanguine is right. We should stick together and try and help one another.” Fighting would only lead to more death and Raven was sick of seeing it. Sometimes she wondered if the namesake had more to do with her powers than just the wings.</div>"

The girl must even know more, is she would know this information. As he suddenly felt a strong force against him, he almost fell to the ground, although a third arm suddenly emerged from his body, pushing him back on his feet again. His dark crimson eyes force itself onto the girl that was sitting by herself.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Thanks for demonstarting your power, sweetheart.""</span>
A dark and evil smile appeared on the boy's face as he looked at the girl for a moment, before returning to the group, who suddenly all spoke about how cruel and mean he was against them. Although it was correct, he didn't cared about it.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Owh and Glitterboy, don't worry. You got a nickname aswell. As for you... You... Damn leave me fcking alone!!""</span>
A pain emerged trough the boys head, as both heads went around it. As the pain lowered, his bodylanguedge suddenly moved from selfsecured, to a weak and powerless being. The glasses that he took off, were placed back on their spot and a gentle and sweet smile filled his face.
<span class=""bb-b"">I... I am sorry... Uhm... The name's Reaper by the way...""</span>
The once secure and dark voice, had turned into a insecure and soft one, as the boy took a few steps back from the group and walked towards a corner that was further away. He didn't wanted to be around them, although he enjoyed not being alone anymore... Perhaps it was just the way he was born that others disliked him, or perhaps because his mind was always faster than those of others... Maybe even the good grades he accomplished at school... Who knew...
Although the boy knew to well that it was his split personality that others hated him, even since these tests he started to gain control over it and he glad he did. Although it still gained control over him aswell...
The shy eyes glanced from underneath his hair towards the group, perhaps they were all freaks indeed, but who knew that he was the top one... They probably have their flaws, but nothing would take control over them, and make asure they would do things... Unspeakable things...
His eyes went from the group, towards the girl in the corner that sat by herself, he knew how her powers worked, even knew what kind of powers she had, although he never enjoyed stealing other powers... So he just kept with the power that he had stolen at the start of these tests... Glad he did that otherways he would have been one of that 90% that never made it...</div>"

I told you that you shouldn’t have done that.” She looked across the table and spoke to the wall again before looking back to the boy. Looking down at the paper before her before she picked up a pencil and began scribbling something down. After a few minutes, all of which she kept glancing at the boy now sitting on his own in the corner. Eventually she stood and walked over to him, holding the piece of paper out to him.

On it she had drawn a little girl, probably meant to symbolise herself. Coming from the girl’s body was a small line that connected to a massive squiggle. Wordlessly she turned and walked back to her table and continued eating from the small bowl of fruit. Glancing over at him she wondered if he meant what he’d said before or was he just like the others and had no clue what her powers really were? Maybe he could help explain it to her, because even she didn’t know at this point.

Stunned Raven stood from her chair and walked over to ‘Reaper’ the boy now in the corner. “What did she give you?” She asked, her interest clearly peeked. The girl had never seen Sabrina react to anyone else like that. So what was it about this guy that had gotten her to interact with him? She’d seen a few come and go with multiple-personality over the years; it seemed they had two in this group, though one could easily have just been aggression from hunger. It wasn’t something strange and he seemed to be in the more ‘placid’ state at the moment. She figured t was safe to approach him. If not… she was physically fit where as he was still a New-In, he’d be weak from the mutation process. She could probably overpower him.</div>"

She watched them become angry, she watched them smiling, observed what they did. She didn't want to talk much, afraid that her powers might go out of hand by any emotional stir. 

As the group talked about some things that irritated her a little, or made her quite sad and such, she would feel herself and tge air around her growing colder, and sometimes whatever she was chewing froze in her mouth. It happened whenever she was startled too.

So when Lily, the one with wings, abruptly stood up from the chair near to her, it alarmed her, causing her to drop her spoon. But there was no sound of the clatter it should have made when it hit the ground. Instead, the spoon was stopped in its tracks, and ice had formed around it. The ice grew to reach the ground, so it was like the spoon encased in ice was on display on the floor. Caerulia gasped. She hadn't meant to do that.</div>"

Who knew what he had done in his other state. As she showed a piece of paper to him, he took it and looked at the girl with a bit of confusion, why did she gave this to him?
As he glanced upon the piece of paper, he saw the drawing, and shrugged his head for a moment. What did this mean? He didn't even had any memories of what he had done just a moment ago... Let alone knew what this meant.
As he smiled for a moment, just because someone just gave him a drawing about them, he wanted to stand up but as the girl with the wings approached him, he sat down again. Did his other side did something to her aswell?
The boy crawled a bit back again, but as she started to speak towards him with a gentle voice, he smiled a bit, perhaps they had noticed the changes his body had made. As she asked about the piece of paper, he looked at her for a moment.
<span class=""bb-b"">""I... I don't know if I am allowed to show it...""</span>
The boy looked at the girl for a moment, as he then stood up and grabbed all his courage. Who knew what would happen when he walked towards the girl that gave this piece of paper, perhaps she would push him back, or ignore him...
As he began his walk towards the girl that sat all by herself, his feet became heavier with each step, this was the first time that he even tried to get some contact with another human being...
As he got closer, he stopped at a meter away from her, smiled for a short moment, and then walked further to sit besides her, as he then placed the drawing on the table. He wasn't much of a talker, although he wanted to try atleast.
<span class=""bb-b"">""I... I can't remember... Every time I change... I... I lose my memories... It's something that happens each time, over and over again...""</span>
The boy stopped for a moment, as he then got an idea to show her what he meant. He looked at the girl for a moment, as he then slowly grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil. Soon after he started to draw himself two times, one looking like an angel and the other like a demon. As he then drawed a small cloud in the middle of them, with two lines connecting the angel and demon with the small cloud.
<span class=""bb-b"">""It's like... They both have a different part of my brain, to have their own memories... I can't even remember my past... So if you want answers about your.... Your power... Then you have to ask the other me...""</span>
The boy looked at her as he placed the drawing that he made infront of her as he spoke. Perhaps it would still be vague, but atleast he tried to explain why he couldn't help her at the moment... Perhaps once he understood his own powers, could reach into the memories of his other side, and would be able to control himself from changing from demon to angel... Perhaps then he could be able to tell her more, maybe even tell her what her powers exactly were.</div>"

It’s been on the news, but you never think it would happen to you. You’re wrong. Before you know it you wake up in a white room, alone. The next few days are full of pain as you are experimented on and tortured. Eventually, if you didn’t die first, you are cast into another room, with a bunch of other people this time. There, you find out you’re now the property of the government who have discovered a new gene in the human body that makes then susceptible to hyper-survival-mutation that they call the ‘Mutagen’. In simple terms, when faced with extreme danger or the threat of death the body will adapt to survive.

Powers. Yep. You’re now a mutant, x-men style. What the government intends to do with you, well that part is fairly uncertain for now. Your days now consist of a very structured schedule, you sleep and eat when they tell you, you have limited free time to yourself but mostly you are in with others in similar situations to yourself or they are testing you, trying to encourage you to develop your powers, become more powerful.

So this is my basic concept, I’m thinking everyone will be playing ‘new-ins’, which is a word the rest have made up for new arrivals after they finish the initial mutation process. This way everyone can be on a fairly similar page in terms of what they know etc. Some of you may be able to guess where the plot is going, but it’s a secret for now so spoilers/guesses.</div>"

Duchy of Savoyard:
One of the four major nations in the human world. A naval power, but quite short on land and soldiers. It also controls a significant archipelago of islands near other ports, making it quite a wealthy nation by trade, since anyone who wars with the Duchy often sees its ports blockaded.

Ishgardia Papacy:
A religious monarchy ruled by a Pope, Ishgardia has the largest army on the continent. A lot of flatland makes the Ishgardia Cavalry the most feared on the continent.

Sartag Khanate:
A nomadic nation that is recently settling in after defeating the Duchy of Savoyard in battle, they have fought a lot of demons, and while less urbanised than other nations, they are very skilled in cavalry (though not as armoured as the Ishgardians) and at fighting demons.

Republic of Widania
A recent popular revolution overthrew a monarchy recently. A mountainous nation that relies a lot on direct democracy to get laws passed, Widania rarely wars with anyone else or gets involved in politics outside its borders.

Kingdom of Loris:
Built on the remains of the empire that once encompassed the entire mainland, Loris lost its holdings one by one throughout history for a variety of different reasons, from rebellion, to religion, to corruption, and even to oversights of law. While not as wealthy as the other nations, it is the most geographically defensible and has the most disciplined army on the continent. The nation is heavily steeped in tradition and religious practice, but holds many ancient records.</div>"

Bio: Previously a fun-loving member of the village guard, the demon invasion turned him into a hardened warrior and the leader of the human anti-demon Alliance. He led a group of heroes into a suicide mission to save the humanity from the demon invasion, but saw all his friends die, and he himself would only triumph over the demon lord by barely an inch.

He's the son of a demon/human pairing, and brought up for a while in the demon lands, so he's somewhat aware of how demon cultures work.

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Human

Cassarah stands roughly 165 cm tall, wears plain dresses on her thin, bordering on gaunt, figure. Her magic is channelled through an ornate ash wood staff that stands as tall as she is.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>
Cassarah has been a scholarly type virtually all her life. She was raised with a Lorisian family well-off enough to have her nose buried in books and scrolls in every waking moment. She would read about all manner of things; stories, religious texts, history. Much to her parents' dismay, training to become a proper lady and attending social events with the rest of the well-to-do folk was always seen as a chore to be put off. Since the age of fourteen, her marital prospects were seen as something of a lost cause with her reclusiveness. It took less persuasion than she anticipated to demonstrate what she had learned of magic and to be sent off across the sea Savoyard's foremost university.

The first year of Cassarah's studies had her excel and become rapidly accepted in the academic community. She seemed to pick up more magic like she had done so in a previous life. After a while, one particularly fascinating subject caught her eye after exploring the vast library. The demon lands. At first, her study was secretive, as the religious influence on the world made demons a taboo subject due to the way they worship. After three years, she was eventually found out. Fortunately, she managed not to get kicked out just yet, but her reputation has been forever stained by the incident and she is shamed by half the academics that she meets. The unfortunate conclusion of the situation is that Cassarah may be one of the few qualified demonologists in the entire realm.

That doesn't mean that she hasn't stopped researching in private.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Those meeting Cassarah under normal circumstances would meet a girl who is somewhat quiet and withdrawn. She will talk if she has to, but would rather be doing something else.

Cassarah has plenty of patience when she is on her own. When there's peace and quiet, she can fly through hours at utmost efficiency at almost any task she puts herself to. When she does it her way, with her rules, she is unstoppable. Any distraction, though, whether it is a chirping bird, a sweeping broom, or worst of all, a pair of chattering gossipers, puts her at unease. She can't get comfortable and swiftly becomes angry. This means that she tends not to suffer the presence of others for longer than she wants.

However, this doesn't mean she is beyond caring. She becomes wilfully passionate about the objectives she sets herself, and seeks to complete them despite what frustrations or obstacles lie in her path. This unfortunately means that she hasn't learned to protect others from her own stubborn wrath, even if they are her friends. Virtually all of Cassarah's other expressions of emotion tend to be locked away behind experiences of scolding parents, maids, and governesses, to the point where she seems cold to most people. It is a mechanism for her to keep focus and control of situations, whether it works or not.</div>"

It laid beside the corpse of the Demon King, and he had to turn his head to the right to see it. He had won. They had won. Even though they had lost so much.

Cassarah and Raine died together at their last stand upon a bridge against their demonic pursuers. Sam took a fatal hit meant for Leneas, and was irreversibly damaged. Jochi ran out of arrows, and was forced to improvise with melee weapons. Unfortunately, he did not survive.

Leneas stared upwards at the Demon King's throne, smiling. Perhaps in his dying moments, he started to see things that weren't there. A glow, coming from the throne. Was it a ball of light, he wondered. He stared at it as it approached him, floating soundlessly in the air. In better days, he would have reacted. He would have asked Cassarah for her opinion, and attempt to analyse it on his own. But in the final minutes of his life, he just closed his eyes.

They won. Everything ends.

-----

The ground suddenly felt softer. Even a little bit bouncy. Leneas raised an eyebrow even before his eyes opened. A wooden ceiling, soft sheets upon a cosy bed, and... was this his room? In his house?

Leneas got up and stared. Dying dreams were getting realistic. Everything was there, in its usual spot. A painting of him and his mother, smiling together hung on the wall. He recalled the day he had to run from his hometown of Arcus. When everyone was dead or dying on the floor from the demons that attacked, snatching this painting from the wall was all he could do.

""How cowardly. I think this painting's here just to remind me of my failures,"" Leneas laughed cruelly at himself. When the demons attacked in proper force, slightly less than 2 years ago, the villages on the border fell like dominoes. Arcus was no different, and even the Duchy of Savoyard fell too quickly. Even a hastily formed alliance between Ishgardia and Loris barely held the line.

The door opened, and a young woman looked in.

""Brother, why are you crying?"" she asked.

Brother? The girl standing at the door was Kelli Solomon. His half-sister. Pure human. Her brown hair and blue-eyes matched his own, and most people called them pure siblings at first glance. And she died at Arcus, too.

If this was a dying dream, perhaps the last thing Leneas could do was hug his sister. With tears in his eyes, he rushed Kelli and hugged her. She felt real. Everything felt real. Good enough.

""Brother?! Brother?!"" she yelped, struggling against his tight embrace. ""HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?!"" She launched her first to his cheek, shattering his grip and toppling him to the floor. Kelli panted for a few moments, before yelling again.

""Give me a freakin' warning next time, you crazy bugger!"" Kelli stormed off.

Leneas held his cheek in his hand. It stung from the punch. Did dreams hurt? Something else felt off too. He reached to his lower back and touched it. The demonic tail, the one he grew when he was 18 years old, was gone. Did he become human?

""No."" An opportune glance towards a mirror told him everything he needed to know. ""I'm 17 again. Did... I... travel into the past?""

-----

Standing at the village gate, Leneas stared hard at everyone passing by.

""Leneas, you're kind of on guard today? Did something happen?"" asked Lee, the other guardsman beside him. Just as young as Leneas, Lee survived Arcus, and he managed to lead a group of survivors all the way from Arcus to Ishgardia before dying of his wounds. Not bad for a lazybum village guard. Leneas never expected that when he saw the badly injured Lee at the gates of Ishgardia, and even knowing the truth did not help the incredulity of the feat.

He recalled an off-handed comment of Cassarah.

<span class=""bb-i"">""I went to Arcus once. 3 years ago. I think I saw your face once, Leneas, but I didn't notice you at the time.""</span>

Cassarah Vincent discovered the prophecy of the Demon King. That a demon, uniting the demons, would lead an invasion at the head of a massive host against the humans. No one believed her at the time, and she was too late, too. A single month after her prophecy, Arcus fell.

He needed Cassarah. He loved Cassarah. But he needed Cassarah, more than he loved her.

""Jeez, it's going to be awkward,"" Leneas mumbled to himself.</div>"

Filth everywhere...</span> She stepped over a fresh pile of horse dung reflexively after almost stepping it, momentarily reconsidering her opinion. <span class=""bb-i"">I suppose there are similarities.</span>

Cassarah decided to keep an eye to the ground as well as the buildings around her for further obstacles. She was looking for a wise woman who apparently eyewitness to a large form of demon from a raid decades ago. No one had really gone out of their way to document the demon, so Cassarah had been following its trail for a while. Thankfully, no difficult institutions had caught wind yet. All she would need to do after this was take her material back to Savoyard and add the extra chapter to her secret treatise. It was really a shame that she could not gather more information, let alone see the demons for herself.

Unfortunately, it soon became clear that the directions Cassarah was provided to find the wise woman were too ambiguous to follow. She wandered around for too long, wasting much of the day. Once she had looped back to the market for the third time, she sighed and resigned herself to asking directions. There was a guard nearby patrolling for pickpockets that would do. She tapped the man on the shoulder and he turned to reveal a thick moustache sticking out from the front of his helmet.

""Can I help you, miss?"" He said in a friendly enough voice.

""I was wondering if you could help me find a residence,"" Cassarah said with an impatient frown at her lack of progress today.

The guard blinked and nodded despite Cassarah's expression. ""Of course, who are you trying to find?""

Cassarah managed to cover her surprise at these villagers knowing where everyone is. She wasn't used to small towns. ""A wise woman by the name of Sheera? I believe she reads fortunes.""

""Oh, that old goat? She's got her hovel not too far from here, what you have to do is follow the road until..."" The guard continued pointing and gesturing while he gave directions. Cassarah took it all in, but caught the eyes of another pair of guards watching on. One of them in particular seemed to be giving her the strangest of looks. After she had received the information she needed, she nodded curtly to the guard and started on her way. She pulled up her cowl while she walked past the guards. She hoped they had not caught wind of her business here.</div>"

She conversed with a patrolling guard, and apparently he seemed to be giving her directions. Even without the words, he was pointing towards the seedy shack that his mother called a shop. Sheera Solomon was a shady fortune teller, and his mother. She apparently adventured in the demon lands a long time ago, and spent a few years in a demonic village with her first son. Himself.

Fortunately, his demonic traits did not appear until he became 18. Unfortunately, it meant that no one would listen to him and Cassarah until it was too late.

""Lee, I'll be back in a moment,"" Leneas lied. Well, he probably did. A conversation with Cassarah might take some time.

Walking briskly to Cassarah, he popped himself in front of her. ""Cass!"" he cried out, before instantly regretting that outburst. There was no way he would know her name right now. He didn't even see her face in the previous timeline this day.

He just started grinning, if only out of nervousness. ""Do you... uh... uh... crap... uh...""</div>"
4302,New Game Plus (MuttonHawk and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75999-new-game-plus-muttonhawk-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-01-31 09:19:00,Muttonhawk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Cassarah even went as far as to pull on the side of her cowl that was facing the two guards. If she was lucky, she wouldn't be stopped. Her heart sunk and her pace quickened as she heard the footsteps of one of them approaching. She didn't need to deal with this right now, she just had to be on her way to see that damned wise woman.

Then he said something that stopped Cassarah in her tracks. Her staff hovered over the ground right before it was going to land again. This was too strange to ignore now. She slowly turned her head, one eye spied the guard with brow that spoke of equal curiosity and anger. She turned the rest of her body until she saw the man with both her eyes and looked at him with her head angled to one side. She hardly heeded him tripping over his own words as she gave her own response, slowly and with menace. ""What did you just call me?"" The tip of her staff began to glow faintly as she prepared to flash the guard's eyes to disorient him if he made any sudden moves. The only one who ever called her 'Cass' was her riding instructor. He died two years ago.

The guard appeared to be having trouble even speaking at this point, so Cass threw another question at him. ""Who the hell are you?""</div>"

When travelling into the past, he had to differentiate between the types of knowledge he knew from his future exploits and tragedies. This was something he was <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> supposed to know, and he definitely screwed up by blurting it out loud. Cassarah was on the defensive. Her staff glowed with her signature non-lethal flash spell.

""I... I..."" Leneas began stumbling over his words, even more so. Cassarah was a fearsome foe, and even as a half-demon, he had trouble matching her in magic. And that was when he was at his peak of his abilities, before the suicide mission.

Oh right, his mother! His mother was a fortune teller. Well, she was a hack pretending to be a fortune teller, but he could use her. He sighed audibly and wiped a hint of sweat off his brow, as if he felt a lot safer.

""My mother, the fortune teller. Sheera Solomon! She predicted a woman called Cass would see her today! Don't hurt me, please?"" said Leneas, before ending his speech in a meek squeak of a sentence. He kept grinning even more nervously, and the sides of his cheeks began to hurt even more.</div>"

Cassarah let out the rest of her breath and looked away, shaking her head. She had been in contact with the woman via courier message. Mrs Solomon's reputation for being relaxed about the truth was beginning to become apparent. Cassarah sincerely hoped that it was not a bad idea to seek her out. At least the woman didn't tell her strange guard son <span class=""bb-i"">why</span> Cassarah was there, else she would be running from them or in manacles by now.

Still, this guard's behaviour was thoroughly confusing. Was her spell so obvious that he thought she meant her harm? Cassarah decided to lower her staff to the ground calmly, but kept energy in the flash if she needed it. ""I'm not going to hurt you, now leave me alone,"" Cassarah said simply, letting go of her anger.

Cassarah turned to leave and her cowl-hidden expression spoke of nervousness while it was facing away from the guard. <span class=""bb-i"">Please don't follow me, please don't follow me, please...</span></div>"

If she was meeting his mother, perhaps he could get some into a more private conversation with Cassarah later. He wrinkled his face as he tried to think of some rationale that wouldn't scare the scholar off.

""I'll bring you there, Cass."" He popped beside her and grinned. ""Don't worry, if you want a private chat with my mother, you've got it."" He gestured to the direction of his mother's shop enthusiastically. 3 years of time certainly made him feel younger and more enthusiastic, and it was, at least, a world without a demon invasion yet.

He waited in nervous, grinning silence for her response. Hopefully, that response would lack a flash spell.</div>"

She figured that this guy was probably just trying to help, and it was likely that her horrid sense of direction would get her lost again.

She bowed her head forward and swallowed back a less civil response. ""Okay, fine,"" Cassarah stopped and dissipated her spell without casting it, then looked at the guard without much patience, ""Just so you know, my name is actually Cassarah.""

Cassarah held the guard's look for a few more seconds, glancing down the road and wondering why he still had that stupid grin. ""Well, go on then. Take me to you mother.""</div>"
4307,New Game Plus (MuttonHawk and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75999-new-game-plus-muttonhawk-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-02-01 05:34:00,Ontos,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">He already knew her name. But he thought that maintaining 'Cass' would make a bit more sense. The new timeline gave him a reason to call her Cassarah now. Calling her Cass felt a little too intimate. He recalled the moments of pleasure, the moment when two were one underneath a starry night. She called out his name, and he called out hers.

The name Cass reminded him too much of those times. Even when the images were long gone from his mind, he could imagine Cassarah's entire body, sans clothes, perfectly. And something else also rose when he thought of those times. Fortunately, the armour covered it.

Leneas took the lead immediately, mainly so that Cassarah couldn't see and comment on his beet-red covered face. Fortunately, the hovel his mother called a shop was barely a few seconds away.

""This way, Miss Cassarah."" He paused for way too long when his mother's shop was in sight. Leneas began to think. He had a single year, before his demonic traits would manifest. He would only be humanity's last hope when they had lost everything else. He needed 3 things.

Power. He needed to become stronger. In combat and in magic. Leneas needed to be the best, or at least, in the top 10, of both. Training was going to be important. He could still remember the techniques passed on by the masters who considered him worthy, but his youthful, still-human body was likely unable to fully leverage on these. 

Friends. The friendship and trust of Archbishop Claudius, Jochi and Dame Raine were enough to persuade the remnants of humanity to back Leneas against the demon invasion. Still, their support came too late for any meaningful victory. He needed them by his side, and early, and potentially the support of anyone else who died before they could come to support him.

Money. There were things the first two could not buy. With money, he could buy equipment. Weapons. And most importantly, prestige and support. If the people sang his name with praises in a year, he could unite their support and present a united front against the demon invasion.

Leneas must have spent at least 10 minutes in silent thought before realising that Cassarah had disappeared into the shop.

""W-wait for me!"" he yelled, rushing into the hovel.

----

Sheera Solomon was in her early forties, but a few magical tricks kept her young. She enjoyed her semi-youthful looks, but for appearances' sake in a shady fortune teller's shop, she wore a face-concealing shroud and held her illusionary-wrinkled hands above a crystal ball.

""Tell me... what you seek?"" the ragged voice of an old crone asked, never looking up to face her customers. Even if it was Cassarah.</div>"

It seemed like a cosy place, but it just seemed so...stereotypically mystical. There were a few implements of magic, but many interesting shapes seemed to be mundane artwork. Nevertheless, Cassarah approached Sheera, getting down to business. ""Greetings Mistress Solomon,"" She said in a less entranced tone than most of Sheera's customers were likely to sound, ""I am Cassara Vincent, we talked over letters about my research? Would now be a good time to talk to you?""

To her annoyance, the young guard bumbled in partway though Cassarah's greeting. She turned her head and shot narrow eyes at him. ""Thank you for your help, guard. I need a moment with your mother,"" she said as if talking down to him. This strange young man was testing her patience.</div>"

Sheera's voice perked up as she looked up, and flipped down her hood. ""Leneas, Cassarah!"" His mother had retained her youthful, though she was in her early forties. The benefits of being a skilled magic user, he guessed.

With a grin, she pointed at Leneas. Leneas cocked his head and raised an eyebrow. What did she have in mind, anyway? He didn't know what Cassarah came here for, only that she did.

""What you need to know..."" Sheera paused, as if for dramatic effect. ""My son knows as well! Leneas, tell her everything about Astech!""

Leneas gulped. Astech the Great was a great demon general. He was also his uncle, a brother to his father, Lucius. In the original timeline, Astech was one of the great demon commanders that spear-headed the initial invasion. It was only by the efforts of a brave knight of Savoyard that Astech was slain in battle.

Sheera stood up, and shooed the two to a side room. Leneas's face turned beet red. The last time the two were in the same room, together...

Leneas fanned his face as much as he could, taking a seat at the small table. He smiled the best he could at Cassarah. ""So... what do you want to know?""</div>"

""Wait, hold on! I thought <span class=""bb-i"">we</span> were going to talk! Missus Solomon!?"" She paid no heed. The door shut behind the two and Cassarah's brow curled worriedly. She placed a hand to her forehead and wondered how this day could diverge any further from what she had planned.

""Okay,"" Cassarah sighed, putting her staff on the counter next to her, finding a seat opposite Leneas, and retrieving some parchment, ink, and a pen from her shoulder bag. <span class=""bb-i"">Leneas, what a rural name,</span> she thought. When she finally brought herself to look up at him, he was blushing like a forge. People didn't really blush around Cassarah unless she insulted them enough to make them furious. Unless this Leneas character had so much pride that he would explode from Cassarah's regular behaviour, that meant that perhaps he...Cassarah couldn't bring herself to think that far into it. The guy was probably just not used to being around girls.

Leneas' question reignited Cassarah's suspicions that the guards were after her, so she was cautious. ""Well, Leneas, what can you tell me about this Astech?"" Cassarah asked in a tone that sounded less like she wanted to be rid of him and more serious and professional. Leneas' answer would decide whether he actually knew about demons or was involved in a sting to make her admit her business in town.</div>"

Not about the future, at least, of the original timeline. More about the past. Astech was a demon that towered over just about everyone, and a man who babied Leneas at every turn. He also taught Leneas how to use a sword and cast spells.

""Well..."" Leneas's voice trailed off. He wondered if he could mention all that to Cassarah. He didn't even mention <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> to anyone in his party in the original timeline.

""Well..."" his voice and thoughts went into the distance, again. Leneas could mention Astech's size, perhaps? His three eyes? His red skin, and ridiculously well-toned body? The horns? The tail?

""Well... Where do we start... uh..."" Leneas started grinning like an idiot again. A few hours in a nicer, less demon-invaded world, and he started to feel like a complete naive fool again.

Wasn't there Cassarah's prophecy? The one that failed to convince anyone until it was too late.

""Do you know anything about a demon invasion, Cass? I mean, Cassarah?"" he asked. Leneas stopped grinning, though he was still pretty damn sure the awkward expression he had on his face was still too obvious.</div>"

Frustratingly slow. By the third 'well', Cassarah was about to start being more specific and ask about description, personality, powers, authority and such. Then he went and threw a question right back at her, an odd one at that. Cassarah habitually glanced over to her staff to double check that it was in reach. The only talk of a demon invasion was in some old text that claimed there would be some kind of demon king in ten thousand years from when it was written. Or was it five hundred? Cassarah was never good with the strange numeral system that the demons used. Either way it was nonsensical.

<span class=""bb-i"">Wait,</span> Cassarah stopped herself from beating a hasty retreat, <span class=""bb-i"">A guard would be far more smug if he wanted a confession out of me.</span> Cassarah angled her head an eighth turn to one side in curiosity. ""Demons don't war, they raid,"" Cassarah admitted, ""They don't unite to war. To do that would require a...a..."" Cassarah waved a hand in the air, trying to find the word, ""A leader. A king. I don't think you would have to worry, Leneas. That kind of thing only happens in stories."" Cassarah leaned forward on the table, ""Now, I thought we were talking about Astech. Is that a specific demon? A variety you saw? Tell me.""

Perhaps Cassarah had said too much, but she would be able to get out of there if it turned out to be a guard out for cheap glory. She often didn't check herself when talking about the subject of her research.</div>"

Cassarah didn't know. Not at this time. His mind raced through the possibilities of her knowing the prophecy. There had to be something he could do <span class=""bb-i"">now</span>. A year was too long to wait.

Leneas looked at the impatient Cassarah, taken by sudden surprise by his question. This was going to be tricky. He wondered if he could try to guide her thoughts in the right direction. After all, she did mention that she knew something.

""I'll make you a deal, Cassarah,"" Leneas leaned back now, a little more confident. He had a plan. ""Show me a particular book in your collection, and I'll tell you everything about Astech.""

His smug smile became a little more genial as he waited for her response. ""I'm related to this just as deep as you are.""</div>"

Technically, if the guard wanted to lynch her for researching demons, he had enough evidence as it was. Either he was trying to secure physical evidence or he knew more than he was letting on about demons. Perhaps he had read about them as well? Maybe this guard outfit was just a cover for someone in hiding studying in Cassarah's field.

An idea crossed over Cassarah's mind that might test this guard's legitimacy. Her suspicious expression unfaltering, Cassarah spoke firmly, ""I accept on one condition: Name the book you want right now.""

Most of Cassarah's resources were back in Savoyard, safely hidden away, but she had three books one her person in her bag. One was a demonologist's reference book with some profiles of common demons and demonic symbols, another was her travel and research journal, the last happened to contain the prophesy that would herald the end of human civilisation, if only Cassarah knew. The book with the prophesy was titled <span class=""bb-i"">The River of Steel</span> by a long dead scholar named Finnian the wanderer. There were other details in the book that Cassarah was trying to work out while she travelled, but she had skipped over the prophesy as being exaggerated nonsense.</div>"

Cassarah spoke so many times of it in the original timeline, Leneas could hardly forget it even if he <span class=""bb-i"">tried</span> to.

""The River of Steel by Finnian the Wanderer. As a bonus, I'll even help you with the demon numerical system."" Leneas did not want to mention it, but he found the human system harder to get used to that the demons'.

Leneas got to explaining Astech. Leaving out personal details, he described the giant, red-skinned demon as he knew him. A lot of it was guesswork, and could hardly be applied to the broader spectrum of demons Astech was related to, but hopefully, Cassarah would be satisfied by it.

2 hours later, he finished his explanation. With an inward sigh to draw some breath into his parched mouth, he felt the dry sting of air upon his even drier mouth. 

""Crap, I'm thirsty as hell. Do you want to get a drink, Cassarah?""</div>"
4316,New Game Plus (MuttonHawk and Ontos),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75999-new-game-plus-muttonhawk-and-ontos,['1x1'],2015-02-20 23:13:00,Muttonhawk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Genuine surprise spread across Cassarah's face. So this man <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> know of the book she carried, and judging by his comment on the numbers, he knew of its contents as well. Did he have a copy himself once? Before Cassarah could even move to get the book out from her bag, Leneas began with Astech. Cassarah was sick enough of Leneas' belligerence that she let him talk, interrupting only to calmly ask questions to elaborate. Astech turned out to be a particular variety of demon that Cassarah already knew of, but this specimen described was larger than usual. Probably a leader of a raiding clan or something. That was the only way Cassarah could fathom Leneas knowing the demon in such detail.

Cassarah had to put Leneas' question on hold while she scratched down the last of her notes on the interview. After a few seconds, she put down her quill and looked up silently. ""Um,"" she swallowed, ""I'll just have water.""

By this point, Cassarah was a little less adverse to the guard's presence, so she decided to honour their agreement. She pulled a thick rectangular leather pouch from her shoulder bag and placed it on the table. Unlacing the leather and pulling it away revealed an old, faded book. It wasn't especially huge, but it was rare and precious as the vast knowledge it held. The cruel, jagged runes on the cover read its title in a common demonic dialect: <span class=""bb-i"">The River of Steel.</span>

""What chapter did you want to see?"" Cassarah asked quietly, keeping her eyes on the book cover.</div>"

Kassy is 5'0"", and is very underweight. She wears a two-part blue dress, an underpart that is a very dark blue, while the over-part is a much lighter color. She wears a necklace with a small helpless dragon on it around her neck. Her hair color is naturally blond, and her eye color is naturally blue. Due to her Fourth Dimensional control over Energy, her eyes turn Purple when she is in control of her powers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Energy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Kassy is a homeless girl, and without parents. Her parents died after she was born, due to an energy surge within her mother. The doctors in the room were badly injured, but the mother and husband were killed by the outburst of power. Luckily for Kassy, her mother was capable of controlling her powers enough to save her from the destruction. Kassy grew up without parents, moving from foster home to foster home throughout Tyoko Japan. Sadly, girls were almost never picked in Japan, except for people visiting from other countries.

The day Kassy was chosen by a nice couple from America, she had an energy outburst. Her magical powers were strong enough to hurt her new mother and father, who disowned her after the attack. On top of the injury, Kassy was injured as well, so badly as to send her into a coma for many years. She has been in her coma since then, and has protected herself from being disconnected with her magic. Anyone who attempted was hurt by her magic, allowing her to live long enough until one day she could wake back up in the hospital.

After Kassy left the hospital, she was a full-grown adult. She had no idea what to do with herself, since she couldn't go back to the orphanage. She didn't know how to get a job, or where to live. She's wandered the streets, taking what she absolutely needs, but never <span class=""bb-i"">trying</span> to hurt people. It hasn't worked well for her, as she is now wanted by the police. She isn't very keen on the idea of going to jail, and has even defended herself from them once, avoiding the cops and injuring several.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Naoto"" type=""button"">Naoto [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Username</span>: Teknonick | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Name</span>: Naoto Tsuyo-sa Taiyō | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Age</span>: 23 | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Gender</span>: Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:
Naoto is 5'8"", and weighs a healthy weight. He has strong features, though not pretty by most Japanese standards. He usually wears a black t-shirt, with a thick heavy opened dark grey jacket over top. He usually wears baggy jeans and a belt. His shoes are designed for running in for long distances, and are a very dark color. His hair color is black, and his eyes are a dark hazel. He has a big black dragon necklace around his neck.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Sight.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Naoto is a police officer in Tyoko Japan. He's gone from odd-job, to odd-job, most of his life. But he eventually found himself liking the law and helping keep order. His two twin sisters are both proud of him, and always tease him about how they never thought he would get the job. His older twin sister works as a politician, while his younger works at a local zoo. The three of them live together in a big apartment they have all worked together to afford. The three of them are all very close to each other, and Naoto sees it as his job to protect his two sisters at all cost.

Naoto is usually a good cop, doing his duty, following his orders, and not arguing with his superiors. He is well known for his use over his ability, using it to it's full potential to help solve crimes. He has been waiting for a promotion for weeks now, and was recently sent on the case of a homeless girl who had defended herself against arrest. He has no idea who she is, but he does have a wanted poster of her. Little does he know he's hunting his own cousin, who is willing to attack him, even if he isn't willing to attack her.</div></div></div>"

Kurano is 5'6"" tall, and generally wears the vest, tie, and white button-up shirt with black pants get-up. His eye color is brown, and hair generally disheveled. He normally wears grey tied shoes, and wears a watch with constant reminders on study, food, and class times routinely sounding off. His eyes normally have dark shadows under them from the constant nights he spends staying up to study.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power:</span> Sound. Not unlocked all of his powers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Kurano is a college law student, attending Waseda University, a very prestigious and highly respectable University within the Shinjuku Tokyo region. Kurano was gifted the dimensional power of sound inherited from his mother. His parents weren't the wealthiest, leading him to live a more modest lifestyle growing up. His conflicts with the snobs at Waseda tend to happen often. He's fairly hard-working and serious, shown through his intensive studies into graduating as quickly as possible and becoming a lawyer. Though, growing up in a humble family has given him a chance to realize just how gifted he truly is. Being a student at Waseda caused him and his family to be a target of the local mob, and he's usually pestered often from his usual route between his classes and his apartment. Kurano genuinely tries his hardest to be nice to others, though normally ends up being rude in some way. He uses his power with as much responsibility as possible, trying to hone it so that he could hear an approaching danger much easier. 

Most of Kurano's life was spent in the shadow of his uncle, a successful businessman who would stop at nothing to make sure Kurano was set in life, him not ever having a child and likely will never have the possibility either. Kurano was trained in various important aspects of what's needed to ""make it"" in life. Coercion, looks, and most importantly, how to make money. He very normally conflicted with his uncle, only wanting to inherit the family business. He only recently took up smoking, as a way to escape the constant stress of the world and classes. He had heard recently that those with the power of taste could easily develop fourth dimensional toe cheese.</div></div>

Minami has orange dyed hair, with her natural hair color being a raven black. She normally keeps her hair in a twin-tails look with big clips to hold them there. Minami is 4'8"" tall, and has an almost orange glow in her light brown colored eyes. She normally likes to wear the color yellow or orange to complement her hair and eye colors. Though, rarely she'll go as far as to wear brown on occasions. She wears a yellow dress shirt, and orange capris when not attending school. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power:</span> Smell. Really sucks when that fourth dimensional toe jam comes into effect. Has not earned all of her powers yet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Minami is a recent runaway. Her parents were neglectful with a step-father and mother, and had no friends in school due to the fact that she was more reserved than others, as well as constantly being teased over what she wore and what she's done. She got fed up with it all, and figured that her chances of surviving in the city weren't all that bad. Only three weeks into her runaway plan from Osaka and her arduous journey, she finally got to Tokyo, the city of dreams, as she was told by her deceased father. There, she would be able to survive amongst the countless amounts of other homeless people strewn about the slums. Minami was always ridiculed for being ""too nice, and too trusting."" Minami never once deserved the hate she recieved, it made her that much more tempted to escape from Osaka. 

Minami always attempted to be as kind as possible in the face of her aggressors, not giving in until the day she snapped and ran away. She had an extreme amount of perseverance, always pushing for her dreams no matter how impossible they seemed. Her power, that she inherited from her biological father, always came in handy for her when helping her mother to cook. Though, her life took a downhill turn once her father died and a step-dad took his place. The man constantly smoked, and would verbally abuse her and her mother. Eventually, Minami's mom stopped caring about her, and so did her father. Minami's only friends moved out prior to all of this, and then she experienced an entirely new feeling. Loneliness. Never before had she ever felt alone. It scared Minami to no end, being persecuted, alone, and sad. There was no place for her in her home town, and decided that Tokyo would accept her better than this place had. She would have to learn how to scrounge for food, and sift through the dirty rivers for water. Her personality always stayed positive, however. She knew that braving the tough world be better than being alone until the day that she died. Minami had that amount of common sense at the least. She packed as much food as she could from the kitchen while her parents were at work, and traveled. Now in the prophetic city she was told about, her only wonder was what she needed to do now to find friends.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Kristof is quite a muscular man of German descent, he stands at a sizable 6'1"" and appears as a quite imposing man due to such however, the large man's face always has a kind gesture a heart smile and a warm and welcoming demeanor, a dark brown beard that is kept rather short is the only bit of hair to be found upon his head. It is easy to tell that the man had never worked an easy day in his life, for his body seems sculpted magnificently. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Powers:</span> Smell and Taste. Perhaps useless separate, however, when combined one can enjoy grandiose meals such as Fourth Dimensional Toe Cheese 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Kristof Brandt, a man of raw physical might and staunch personality. For as long as he could remember Kristof has been a laborer, working one menial job to the next essentially picking things up and putting them somewhere else. In time he became quite good at such physical labor. For years Kristof lived like a dog under a strict regime from his perfectionist family who constantly doubted the man for his lifestyle. Sure, he was unlike them and all of their college degrees, but he had found a different kind of perfection, not of mind, but of body, of soul. 

Eventually Kristof came to meet a woman, one who enthralled him so as to spirit him away from the droll life once lived. The woman, a ringleader for a famous circus that traveled the world far and wide, offered Kristof the position of a strongman. Without a single ounce of doubt, he accepted, and was welcomed with open arms. After years of some of the most rewarding work and travel that Kristof had ever had the pleasure of committing to the pair married, a ringleader and a strongman. Unfortunately what seemed like a most beautiful future quickly became horrid. As shortly after Kristof's wife fell gravely ill never to recover. 

A lingering depression came over the man, he felt broken, hollow, empty. A final show was booked for Tokyo Japan, Kristof had known of numerous new technologies sprouting up, in fact, during the circus's last visit to Japan his wife somehow convinced him to go through with a procedure. Gaining the ability of smell and taste allowed him to enjoy countless meals as if even dog food were a fine cuisine, of course, those were more peaceful times. Quickly brushing up on his linguistical skills the strongman headed out with the circus for a final act in memorial to his wife. Kristof eventually came to realize that his wife would not want him to endlessly mourn her death, but rather celebrate her life, a resurgence of emotion and memories came to him as he preformed his final act in front of a grand audience. 

Kristof is a man among men, who often lets his demeanor and muscular fortitude do the talking for him, he has the capabilities for fine arts and strives to help everyone around him reach a certain perfection in at least one trait. A softhearted and kind soul he does not hesitate to place himself in danger's way if it means the protection of someone close to him.

Ever since he had his operation, he had found that he could see things other people couldn't, but it was written off as impossible because, originally, he was told he had amplified taste. He was involved in the first military engagements against the strange creatures as a field medic. Loss after loss, however, had him retire. It wasn't until his home was attacked and family killed by forth dimensional creatures, that his power was re-evaluated to confirm he had the power of sight, not taste, and surprisingly enough he was starting to develop sound as well. The mistake was from a mix-up in documents. Due to this, Garsin was annexed from society and placed under lockdown for his and others' safety. Though he is in an underground cell, it is made quite cozy like a small cabin on the inside with fake windows that are screens that display the outdoors. Barely a month passed before a group called Team Alpha contacted Garsin, promising him a shot at getting some revenge on the strange creatures. Garsin was ready and willing to get revenge on them, however, after being part of the group for a long time one of the only friends, and partner, he had in Team Alpha was was fatally injured on the field. When asked to leave him, Garsin disobeyed orders and tended to the man's injuries and extracted him as well. Garsin saved him but was promptly fired upon his return, though Garsin quickly shot back, saying that it was fine by him because if their weapons weren't such crap that they wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place! After so much death, loss, and failure, he decided he would stay in his ""cabin"" until he finally died. But as fate would have it, that would soon change as well...<br/><br/>WHEN DEPLOYED: He is equipped with a heavy two handed energy sword (think phantasy star) and a sidewinder-like heavy gun (like the weapon on titanfall, but uses bullets), both magnetically held onto his back. He also carries extra energy cells for his blade. He also has a medical satchel that hangs at the back of his belt. His sword can last a bit on one cell, but has a special ability to turn into an energy hammer. once it is in hammer mode, he can deal a devastating attack but it eats up the whole cell on contact. He carries a total of 5 energy cells. one already loaded, and four extra.<br/><br/>Also, he can no longer stand strong cheeses because they all remind him of the horrific training video about fourth dimensional toe cheese.</div>"

With it came some startling stories that she told her parents. Convinced that her fantastic stories -- one of them being of a bizarre entity that otherworldly beings referred to as the all mighty Fourth Dimensional toe cheese-- would result in her being killed or kidnapped by the government or private research sector,  they quickly scared her into keeping silent about her tendencies.

She quickly noticed that every time she became frustrated, a burst of inexplicable color began to bloom at her hands and feet, sometimes even covering portions of her body in a second skin. Being blind at this stage in her life, she found these colors to be beyond the normal colors she had seen when she was still very young. While this would not affect the other children she practiced with, she still does not understand their properties.<br/><br/>In order to better isolate herself, Tachibana attends college classes online and rarely leaves her apartment.

<div class=""bb-h3"">One hour after official sign in.</div>

Most guests have arrived at the Fourth Dimensional 48th Anniversary Convention, located at the Tech of Dimensional Learning Center, Tokyo Japan. It is one hour after sign in, and the festivities are about to begin! Police have been casually stationed throughout the convention, mostly outdoors, though some indoors, just to keep people calm and safe.

The building is a massive skyscraper, reaching five hundred meters high in the sky! It is mostly made of glass, though has been known to be very stable and secure. The bottom floor is about three stories high itself, making for a grand entrance into the building. The glass is crystal clear, and there are many doors leading in and out of the building on the front face. There are giant steps leading up, with a big courtyard just before them, with a fountain, trees, and several benches.

Indoors, on the bottom floor where the convention is being held, it is mostly open. It is bright, clean, and sparkling new. There are stands set up, with stages, indoor tents, and crowds as far as the eye could see. Each stage had different speakers from different parts of the company, showing off inventions, or discussing the new discoveries that have come of the Fourth Dimension. There was a big stage in the center of the building, but there were security guards and a giant screen held up to stop anyone from seeing the grand finale.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Convention Stand One. A new technology has been invented.</div>

""Thanks to the new discoveries with the Fourth Dimension, we have discovered new technologies never before possible! This object my friend holds here, is a new object, capable of movement throughout the fourth dimension. It is <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> large, though most of you see it as a small cube in my friend's hand here. He can hold it with a glove you see him wearing, as well as manipulate it with his other hand. Watch as he uses his other hand to change the shape of the cube, into virtually anything he likes!"" a man said from atop the stage. He stood there with an assistant at his side, and several guards at the back of the stage standing at attention.

The man's assistant, holding the cube, pulled at it with his other hand, bending it into a bigger rectangle. He then pulled out several legs, touching the floor on plates that looked similar to is gloves. He then released the cube, now a long rectangle standing on legs. He grabbed one end of it, and started bending it throughout the entire stage, until it was like a long miniature roller coaster, encircling the men on the stage. ""With this new technology, construction workers will be able to build buildings much quicker, and cheaper than ever before! These cubes do have a limited size, though they can be made to enormous proportions! We have been working on a much more compact version, capable of working mechanically. It is able to transport objects from the ground, into the air high above it, with less energy used to bring it up! With this new law of physics, we are able to create infinite energy, reducing costs of electricity, and generating a free source of fuel for years to come!"" the man continued on with his speech, while the assistant started reforming the cube back into it's original form.

The crowd started to clap, cheering on as the assistant finished putting away the cube, and the man speaking bowed a few times. More talk continued, mostly about numbers, estimates on when the technology will be complete and safe, and when people will be able to buy them as regular household items.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Convention Stand Two. An explination on the Fourth Dimension.</div>

""Ludwig Schlafli is an inspiration to all of us here at Tech of Dimensional Learning. A lot of his theories and ideas have proven to be truthful, and extremely useful in explaining the Fourth Dimension to young students. He would explain this theory, by simply drawing a line. This line was the first dimension. Then, he would draw three more lines, making it a square, which is the second dimension. The third dimension would then be a full cube, something more similar to what we see everyday, as opposed to a two dimensional drawing. Now, a fourth dimensional object would be similar to a third dimensional object, except it would have two more directions. Objects with four dimensions would be capable of bending through space, appearing to appear and disappear through our third dimension.""

""It is a very hard concept to those who cannot see it, but to those of us who now can, it is more clear than ever before. Try explaining the third dimension to a second dimensional being. Hard, right? No, not really. You just point to it! See? It's there! Easy! The same thing for the fourth dimension. Once you can see it, hear it, smell it, taste it, touch it... it becomes there forever! You never forget it, as it becomes an everyday part of your life. Those of you that have seen it, explain it to your friends! Those of you who can hear it, explain that as well. All of you, explain your own experiences through your own words to your friends. Educate the world in this new interesting technology!""

<div class=""bb-h2"">Convention Stand Three. Sound device, used for demolition of buildings.</div>

""This new device allows us to manipulate sound through the Fourth Dimension. Those capable of hearing in the Fourth Dimension have similar abilities, but this new device is much more powerful and accurate. It has been tested on small buildings, and is fully capable of holding a entire collapse with precision control. It might be possible in the future for this technology to disassemble buildings, piece by piece, to save time in reconstruction and reuse of these demolished parts!""</div>"

Pardon me! Very sorry."" A sea of faces, packed together like a can of tuna, if only he could move in fourth dimensional space! A man that could be at the very least be described as, ""rather large"" weaves his way through a crowd of gibbering people near insectoid in comparison. He attempts to be as polite and careful as he can, though with such a stature in such a tiny space it takes an unearthly form of motor control to not bump into anyone along the way. 

Already late, the final circus performance ended on a great note, many times have they visited Japan, always with a warm reception. Though it is a hard goodbye for all the performers, Kristof might have taken it the worst. However he had run out of tears long ago, today that might change, for this night would be full of reminders of the man's lost love. A vaguely familiar face comes to the attention of the large Germanic man as he shuffles through the crowd.

""Ah! Mister Brandt!"" A young Japanese doctor catches Kristof's attention, ""Are you both adapting to your new found senses?"" Of course, this was the man who preformed the procedure on both he and his wife. Without being able to mouth a response the doctor chimes in again, ""Where, is the lovely ringleader anyway?"" This promotes a sullen expression upon Kristof's face, ""She won't be coming this year, I'm afraid she may never again."" And with such a brisk response in slightly broken Japanese the large man again heads further to the front of the crowd so that he may pay his full attention, in order to not miss everything. Sure he doesn't understand every word, but since his enhancements Kristof and his wife have always wanted to learn more about the fourth dimension, too bad he had to give her ticket away.</div>"

Honobi walked slowly, his hat faced down over his eye, as his long hair covered his over eye, thus, completely covering his face. The large collar of his jacket covered his mouth, his sword neatly tucked away in the scabbard, he paid no attention to anything in particular, he was in a peaceful state of mind, completely calm and relaxed as he mysteriously stood motionless in the center. It was finally his time to sign in, he used his finger to lift up his hat slightly, then took a small pin, he pricked his finger, and signed his name in blood. Once he had signed in, he slowly walked past the guards, he stopped for a moment, staring at them. They would be unable to see him staring, but, they'd feel his eyes, staring right at them. It only lasted for a moment, before he slowly began to walk in.

Shela

Shela was already inside, in fact, she was one of the first in, not because she was excited, but, she could find a good hiding spot, she would sit down in the shadows, and simply listen, which is exactly what she did, she just sat in the corner, her legs curled up to her body, holding her teddy tightly, listening. She was fascinated with the cube, but, she was too afraid to go up and as questions about it. She didn't want to bother anyone and get in their way.

Slade and Blade 

<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D0ZQPqeJkk"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D0ZQPqeJkk</a>

There they were, weapons drawn, the final battle. Good vs evil, sith vs jedi, who would win? It was finally time, to find out. Slade and Blade had gotten bored, and was currently playing 'Star Wars' with real weapons. They found it fun to play, of course, Blade made them the weapons that they needed. Blade was the Sith, and Slade was the Jedi. Now, it was a battle to the death. They began fighting, sounds of battle could be heard as they screamed. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Die! Jedi have no place in this world! I will defeat you!""</font> <font color=""#00aeef"">""The force is always with me, I cannot lose!""</font>

The two played happily, although, for anyone around, they might get a little worried, seeing two children with very dangerous weapons.</div>"

Because of this Rose decided to get up at 5am as she couldn't sleep anyway she took spike for his morning walk practised her hand to hand on a fighting dummy did some studying got a shower and went to collage. but once their she found herself just staring at the clock though most of her classes just waiting to leave for the convention once all her classes had ended she headed home to get Spike who she always left in the house while she was at collage to stop anyone from braking in then she hoped on a train and headed strait for the convention. 

Once Rose had arrived at the building she was immediately impressed by the size and the design of the building from an engineering point of view it was a master piece. once she had arrived at the gate she told Spike to sit by the door and wait for her she gave him a quick pat on the head as she went inside. Once inside Rose took a look around looking for the Convention stand that had the new demolition gauntlets but as she did she noticed a muscular man having a brief convocation with what look like a DR of some kind, (Kristof) As well a men dressed in robes and a small amount of armour, (Honobi) although the strangest of all where the tree small children that seemed to be alone one was sitting in a dark corner, (Shela) the other two where playing with energy swords. (Slade and Blade) Rose decided to ignore them for now assuming security would take care of the kids she just walk past all of them wavering her way though the crowed with out saying a word and walking right past the other two convention stands heading right for convention stand three. once their she began to admire the craftsmanship of the gauntlets she then looked up to the one manning the desk and began talking to him about the mechanics of the devices.</div>"

""Remember to study pages 114 through 160 tonight, as I will be quizzing you tomorrow. Sayounara."" A bell blared into the halls and classes of Waseda University. The last classes of the day were through with, and a tired young man stood up to leave for a convention. ""Hey, Kurano!"" Someone shouted at him from the hallway. Once Kurano left his class, a freshmen college student waited to meet him. ""I don't have time for another survey Takai. There's something important I need to be at right now for a class. The young man named Takai frowned, but asked a question out of curiosity. ""You going to the convention? I wish I could come, but I've got these surveys I need people to fill out."" Kurano gave in, feeling bad for the guy, a frown just didn't suit this normally happy friend's face. ""Alright, but I'll need to do it while walking if that's alright."" Takai nodded, and handed his pen and survey over to Kurano. 

""Alright, why are these questions so, personal?"" Kurano stated, looking at all of the rather private answers. ""It's for psychology. I need to survey people I know, and see if my version of them is close to what they're actually like."" Takai said all of this with a rather innocent smile on his face. ""Sounds more like you're going to post this online for the world to read. I'm, not interested anymore. Assignment or not, just tell her you were wrong about me. I <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> don't have time for this. I need to get to the convention for my own assignment."" Kurano handed the paper and pen back to Takai, which he sadly accepted. Kurano shook his head, and muttered to himself. <span class=""bb-i"">Trust me kid, I'm much more different than you think I am.</span> Kurano shifted his pace into a brisk walk.

The bullet train, Japan's greatest transportation machine. Kurano was able to get to the heart of Tokyo within two minutes on the speed machine. On the way out of the train, Kurano swiped his watch against a device on an exit door. It read his code, and immediately charged him 1,000 yen. ""It's getting more expensive every month. Soon, I'll have to start walking back to my apartment."" He hung his head, and stuck his hands deep into the pockets of his black and neat pants. 

Kurano reached the convention, which luckily for him, was always free come the time of the annual fourth dimensional convention. He pulled out a small notebook and pen from his back pocket and immediately started to take notes of the situation. Kurano then inserted a pair of earplugs into each of his ears to block out most of the sound. <span class=""bb-i"">Tightly crowded, easy for pickpockets. Free convention stands, possibility of theft.</span> He was intended to keep track of any and all chances of crime. This would supposedly teach him 'observational' skills, but instead ended up teaching him why not to become a detective. He had no time to listen about what wonderful inventions were coming up. He had to write, and pace around, and write some more. Every once in a while, Kurano noted some fairly odd looking displays. <span class=""bb-i"">Woman dressed in armor with a sword, possible murder intentions. Little children fighting with weapons, likely chance of indirect harm to others.</span> He continued to note, walking and looking.

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

There was supposed to be some really big event going on that day. Very celebrated in Tokyo, something having to do with the powers that everyone had. A small, and hopeful little girl, rushed into the convention the moment she heard about it. <span class=""bb-i"">Free food, and maybe free stuff too!</span> Minami thought to herself, as she gazed upon the waves of people walking around. She noticed someone with a rather large buffet table to themselves in a corner. She very cutely walked up and took a deep breath of the food in front of her. ""Hello mister. You look really sad over here. Can I help?"" The old man nodded, and allowed Minami to sit down. 

Minami only eyed the food, while the man did not take a single look at her. ""Mister. Are you okay? Maybe you're grumpy all alone."" The man now turned around on the table, clearly trying not to talk to her. ""Please. I need food. I've only eaten stuff from the garbage for a week."" The old man turned around to see big brown eyes, and a tear fall down her face. He grumbled for a moment, but relinquished a bowl of curry. ""Thank you so much sir,"" Minami replied with a smile stretched across her face. A feeling of warmth grew within the man, as she voraciously chomped at all of the curry she could find. ""Young lady. I am sorry for not giving you the food earlier. Here, as forgiveness."" The man handed over the rest of his food, and left the table. <span class=""bb-i"">I hope there's more people like him around here,</span> Minami thought to herself, chowing down all of the food as quickly as she could.</div>"

Kassy had always attended the annual convention every year, always interested to learn more about the powers she had inherited from her parents. But now, thanks to her record, she wouldn't be able caught dead in the place, especially with all the cops around. This year was supposed to be big, with a secret invention announced at the end. There was also going to be discussions about the monsters, which interested Kassy quiet a bit since she had actually seen a fight between one and a cop once before. She wouldn't have escaped that day if it weren't for it... but she never knew what happened to the cop, as it looked like he didn't even know it was there for the longest time.

She was now hiding nearby, sitting on the ledge of a building overlooking the convention. She had a small sandwich in her hands, eating it slowly as it was the only food she had managed to gather in awhile. She hated stealing it off of other people. But she had to. She took the second bite of the sandwich she had all night... before slipping and dropping it off the side. She caught herself, and avoided going over the edge, but she was not without food, and starving. <span class=""bb-i"">Great. Great! Of course this would happen... and with the convention going on, there isn't going to be anything else open!</span> she yelled at herself. She was now standing and pacing on the ledge she had climbed up to, not afraid that she might possibly fall. <span class=""bb-i"">If I fall, who would care anyway? I wouldn't feel the pain either.</span>

She climbed down after making up her mind. She wanted food, but she wasn't willing to scrape it off the ground. She checked the windows of the few buildings around her, but they were all locked up and closed. The few she found open didn't even sell food. She came across a vending machine, but it didn't have food, it had toilet paper and toothbrushes. <span class=""bb-i"">Nice combination.</span> she laughed to herself. Her stomach rumbled, almost loud enough for the cops to hear. She thought harder for a little while longer... and decided... she was really hungry. She looked around her, taking note of the mostly emptiness. Most of the cops outside the building were hanging around in groups, distracted by one thing or another. Kassy, smiled. She was going to sneak right past them and get her food right from under their noses!

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>

""And then guess what!"" Haruto screamed at the other cops and Naoto. He was in the middle of his story, reaching the climax of it all. He mentioned it twice already that night, not counting the times in the car. ""Then you swooped down and caught her!"" Naoto rolled his eyes. ""No! Then one of those monster things came out of nowhere! It's like she summoned the beast on me. And guess what! I took it out. I shot the bloody thing, it didn't even see it coming!"" he was ready to pull out his blaster, but decided it was better not to. ""I have the scars to prove it!"" he cried. ""Didn't you say you shot it? Why would you have scars if you shot the thing?"" Naoto caught Haruto in his cobweb of storytelling. ""Well... I shot it... then it got a hold of me. That's better than most people have done! The military's used tanks to try and take these things out, they didn't get so close as a blow like I made!"" Haruto fought back, trying to recover his honor. The other guys in the group laughed, and patted him on his back. ""It's alright. You should be lucky you're still on the force, rather than brag about the encounter. For all you know the next one might end you."" the others shot him down. Haruto sighed, kicking at the ground and remaining silent. Until the next batch of cops rolled out the front door to get some air. ""Hey! Did I tell you the story where I shot one of those monster things!?"" he yelled over, hopping over to explain it to them whether they've heard it or not.

The other two cops disappeared inside, while Naoto stayed where he was. He finished his cup of cold coffee by tossing it over his shoulder, then tossing the empty can in a nearby trash bin. He whipped out his phone and checked it for any messages. None. He sighed, leaning up against the wall and begging for some action. Just at that moment, he eyed a woman approaching the building, wearing a robe with a hood over her face as she rushed for the doors away from the other cops. Naoto didn't know who it was, but she didn't look right moving as fast as she did, nor wearing what she was. He took another look at his phone, before depositing it and heading over to Haruto and the others. ""And then-"" he was going on... Naoto sighed, and pushed past them, deciding he could handle it himself.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kassy</span>

Upon entering the building, she noted some of the cops outside may have seen her, so she pushed her way through the crowds to get in farther and lose them. She was mostly hoping she wouldn't bump into anyone that recognized her. She wasn't priority one, so she felt pretty safe no one would recognize her. She continued inwards, examining each stand as she went by. She noticed one stand wasn't being attended, as the owner was busy talking to some customers right next door. Kassy walked up to it quickly, and snatched an object off the counter, depositing it into one of her pockets as she continued on her way.</div>"

Honobi walked on in and looked around, there was nothing that drew his interest, so, he slowly walked around, seeing a number of people. He stood around the conventions, listening to each of them, if he had to pick one, it would be the cube. He picked up the guarnlets, and then placed them down again. He wasn't one to just randomly talk, but, he noticed somebody talking to the owner, he studied her carefully, then closed his eyes for a moment as he began to speak.

""From studying your patterns and interest, I take it you are a sounder user? Interesting......I do not see many of those around.""

He continued to hide his face with his hat as he spoke to her, there was nothing else to do, so, why not talk?

Shela

Shela continued to sit in the corner, hiding from everyone as she watched. She saw a few interesting people, mostly Kurano, Kristof and Rose. So, she spent her time watching them, she didn't want to bother them and get in their way, so she stayed where she was, just watching the three carefully.

Slade, Blade and Honobi

The two continued to play, although, it was getting more dangerous, as Slade began walking back, defending himself as he did. Then, Blade went to attack, and Slade quickly moved out the way, cutting a table in half. Some people began to scream in terror, but they didn't care, they just laughed and continued to play with their dangerous weapons. Although as they played, they were pushing each other back more and more, until eventually, they stood right next to Rose and Honobi. Blade was more aggressive than Slade, more stronger, Slade was having trouble pushing him back. At this point, it was obvious Slade was losing. The guy who owned the convention store stood back, nervous that the two kids might kill somebody. Honobi just watched, unworried, he shrugged and then turned back to her, ignoring the two children.</div>"

Rose realised the endless possibilities for them as well as the one flaw only someone who could successfully identify the pitch of their targets could bring out their full potential. Rose also knew for anyone who could identify the pitch's they could be used for much more then just demolishing buildings they could be used to replicate any sound perfectly, inter with other sound waves effecting what people hear and course mass destruction they could be extremely dangerous if they ever fell into the wrong hands.

while Rose was talking to the sore owner she was interrupted by Honobi 

""impressive I assume you have the gift of 4D sight as their was not enough clews to figure that out for anyone with out it anyway my names Rose may I ask what is yours.""

anyone who listened to her would be able to tell she has an English accent although she spoke perfect Japanese. while they where talking she noticed a young girl in a robe and hood walk past them but then the twins began to make more noise. Rose noticed them destroy a table as they moved closer to them she quickly moved to protect the gauntlets. That is when she noticed they had been stolen she looked back to Honobi 

""I am sorry to be rude but I have to go find a thieve""

Rose then began to walk away as she looked around for the girl but their was to many people and she just couldn't see her that's when she realised she was looking with her eyes when she should be looking with her ears. Rose knew the gauntlets where switched on and she knew the sound of there power core this was a sound no one would be able to pick up on unless they had the 4D sound ability. Rose closed her eyes and began to listen for the gauntlets she soon picked up on what sounded like a low pitched humming Rose opened her eyes and looked in the direction the sound was coming from she then noticed the back of the girls head recognising the colour of the hood and the fact that's where the gauntlets where she had no doubt in her mind that that girl stole them. she quickly began to chase her. Rose walked as fast as she could as she knew if she ran she would drew to much attention to herself as she waved though the crowd she began to catch up with the girl.</div>"

Naoto walked as fast as he could into the building, pushing through the crowds, scanning whole groups of people, and eyeing conversations being had. He noticed a small commotion up ahead, with two kids coming with with weapons, fighting to what seemed to be the death, and then some woman chasing after the person Naoto had seen enter the building just moments before. He had to make a decision right away. Follow after the two people, or stop the kids from fighting. The choice wasn't too hard of one to make... he didn't know who he was after, but he did know the kids might kill someone if they're not stopped.

""Hey! Put those down right now, you are not allowed to play with dangerous weapons like that in here!"" Naoto ran up towards the kids, attempting to get between them without getting hurt. He felt sad, knowing he was ready to pull out his gun if he had to, but two kids fighting with weapons is not something normal, and must be dealt with extreme force if necessary. He turned his attention for a short moment after the two women fleeing, which he didn't expect would be dangerous... the two kids might send an attack on him now that he was between them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kassy</span>
Kassy had expected someone to follow after her, though, she had no way of knowing that someone would actually attempt to be quiet as opposed to running after her and yelling for her to stop. She was still looking around for someone that was following her, using her energy to feel fast movements as well, but she couldn't spot anyone. She had no idea she was being followed.

Kassy kept moving her way through the crowds, trying to find some tent area with possible food. There didn't seem to be any designated areas to eat at, simply scattered all throughout the place. She turned as she walked, eye everything she could. As she had turned halfway around, she noticed where she had came from, seeing a commotion going on now. <span class=""bb-i"">That's good. Now they might not even notice I took it.</span> she thought to herself with a smile. She eyed one woman seeming to be heading in her direction, almost straight for her. She hmm'd to herself, eyeing her a little longer to see if she would keep following. If she did, then Kassy would surely turn and run. If not then she didn't need to make a scene.</div>"

Almost as if from nowhere, perhaps because her attentions where elsewhere, she hadn't seen him coming, a large and bulky man was leaning downward toward the cloaked Kassy. He spoke again this time with a thick hand placed upon her shoulder, 

""I'm looking for some grub, I haven't eaten for quite a while today."" It was dreadfully obvious that he was non-native to Japan, his accent was broken yet the important parts were still understandable. The large man's eyes were shut and the expressionite smile upon his face gleaned a sense of warmness and safety. The man chuckled a bit as the young woman met his gaze, 

""There are far too many lingering scents for me to get a bead on the delicious morsels that I know I smell."" As Kristof opened his eyes to glance at the woman before him they grew wider, and with a slight shudder he spoke 

""You, you remind me of someone."" pondering to himself that if there are any gods in this world, they are far too cruel. But with a rumble in his stomach Kristof continued his line of inquiry, hoping not to stir any discontent in the fact that he might be acting rude by continuing on about things that the stranger in front of him did not understand or knew of.</div>"

Honobi watched as Rose left to catch the thief, then turned to the twins, there was nothing for him to do now, and he new the cops would deal with them,  and within a few minutes, they did. He stepped back and just sat down for now as he waited for something interesting to happen.

Slade and Blade

Slade and Blade looked to the man as he shouted at them. They giggled happily and turned to him. It was Blade that stepped forward, placing the lightsaber away for now.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""My name is Blade, don't worry, I won't kill <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> many people.""</font> 

Slade stepped forward, looking up to the man and spoke next.

Kassy almost jumped when the a man tapped her shoulder and began speaking to her. She almost spun around and hit whoever it was, but decided against it. She turned to face him, lifting his hand off her shoulder slowly as she did so. He asked her if she happened know know where there was food, at which mention her stomach growled in union with his words. He then went on, explaining why he couldn't find any... then mentioned he might have known her. Kassy held back her shock for as long as she could, trying to think of what to say to avoid being caught.

""Um... yes, I'm looking for food too."" she said very plainly and quickly. <span class=""bb-i"">Dang it! I probably shouldn't have mentioned that. Now I can't get away from him!</span> ""I don't think you know me though. I just have one of those faces!"" she giggled, moving her hands into the air to add distraction away from her face. She then quickly turned in one direction she thought might have food, and grabbed the mans shoulder with one of her hands, while pointing off in the direction with her other hand. ""We can try looking over there."" she said, trying to avoid eye contact at this point.

She tried looking around for the person she had possibly thought was following her, but didn't dare try to make it obvious. She tried to make it look like she was looking for more options.... She couldn't find her anymore. The crowds were too thick. She may be on top of them any moment now, so Kassy had to move quick if she really was being followed. She then tried to pull along the giant man with her as she walked off in the direction she had pointed off in originally.

""So, tell me about yourself. What brings you to the convention? And what's your name?"" she tried asking the man she was with, hoping to bring the heat off of her. <span class=""bb-i"">If only I could control thoughts. Then again, I wouldn't be in trouble with the police anymore either.</span> ""Do you have a family here? It doesn't sound like you're from Japan."" she added quickly in afterwards. She was trying to speak as fast as she could in an attempt to confuse the man. He didn't seem to speak very well, so fast speaking might offset him enough to forget about who she is.

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>
""I'm sorry kids, but you're going to have to hand over those weapons. I can return them to you after I have a word with your parents. It's too dangerous to be playing with them in such a thick crowd tonight."" he said, turning his attention to the two kids now. ""Where are your parents, by the way? You shouldn't be here all by yourself."" he then asked. <span class=""bb-i"">What kind of parents would let two children own real swords, and possibly kill each other with them anyway?</span></div>"

Perhaps she was in a rush? Or just famished as he was, even while he was being dragged along by the petite in comparison woman he attempted to pay full attention, not wanting to miss out on the important parts. 

It seemed as if they were barreling through the crowds now as the larger man tried to hold on to his kidnapper of sorts. She must really be hungry! Kristof thought to himself, becoming distracted by his own errant ideas. Ah, well, he would act in no less of a way than her, one who eats with gusto is the one who enjoys life most, at least, that is something his mother always used to say.

His name! The young stranger had asked for it! With a small amount of stuttering he stopped the girl so that he may bow, keeping her in an open aisle for but a moment to respond to her earlier question, ""I am Kristof Brandt, perhaps you've seen my performance in the circus that just blew into Tokyo."" Kristof stifles a tear that does not seem at home for such a person, ""Unfortunately, tonight was the last act."" Similarly recalling that she prodded further he continued, ""I had originally planned here on coming with my wife, to this convention, just as we had done last year. I still can't believe I let her convince me to get the procedure."" He trails off, picking up some speed again as the headed in some arbitrary direction on the hunt for eats.

""What about you then? What shall I call you?"" He flashes a warm smile at the briskly moving girl who had been avoiding any gaze towards the man.</div>"

Kurano's face lit up when he saw a commotion arising. He was tired of writing up mundane things. He surveyed the situation, crowds of people, and wrote down whatever he could. <span class=""bb-i"">Large commotion going on, extreme chance of thievery. Police force being incompetent as usual.</span> He searched more for signs of any sort, and noted that whatever was supposed to be on display at stand #3 was now gone. <span class=""bb-i"">Thievery theory proven. This would be so much easier if I had the power of sight.</span> After sweeping across things one last time, he saw that the enormous man from before was now being escorted by a rather shifty looking person in a cloak. <span class=""bb-i"">Possible suspects. Inform officers immediately so that they can be even more incompetent than usual.</span> He roughly sketched the cloak and a muscular man, and looked to find some sort of officer in the premise. He noted one near those children, talking to them. Perhaps this one wasn't as bad as the rest. 

Kurano approached the officer from behind. It looked like a crowd of people were circled around the man, as they waited for him to finish with the children. Kurano cleared his throat, and politely asked, ""I'm sorry to be bothering you, officer, but it looks like there is a robbery in progress. If you cannot seem to deal with it, then why not call for backup? I do realize that you are busy with what's going on right now."" Kurano attempted to be as polite as possible, seeing that the officer was in a fairly stressful situation.

Minami was still sat at the table, satisfied with her meal. She watched as something was happening, but it didn't bother her. Minami still had a few scraps left over that she started placing into a pouch. She wondered what was going on, thinking that maybe they were showing off something grand and amazing. She was missing out on it. Minami got up from her table, and wandered towards the sounds of panicked people. She saw what looked like almost a tower of a man poking over people farther away. Minami was filled with curiosity, but needed to know what was going on where everyone was. She jumped up and down, trying to get a clear view of what was going on. She then tugged on the clothes of someone close to her. ""Can you lift me up, please?"" The person simply ignored her as she tried to get a better look.</div>"

Rose quickly tuned and headed for convention stand two to make it look like she was just trying to find her way though the crowed just in case she was on to her. she discretely looked back to her to see if she watching her. Rose smiled when she noticed she was now distracted by a large man but she needed to be careful because if Kassy saw her following her again their would be no doubt that she was following her. Rose now moving a little slower ducking behind people in the crown to pervert Kassy from seeing her. The closer Rose got the more clearly she could hear the gauntlets. As Rose got closer she started to think that the two didn't know each other based on the fact Kassy looked nervous around him and they were talking more like pair strangers. Rose then had an idea of how to get the gauntlets back without making a seance. she had overheard that they where both looking for food and thought she could use that to separate them long enough to get the gauntlets back. Rose finely caught up to them and tapped Kassy on the shoulder 

""hay long time no see what has it been now about 3 years right how have you been?""

Rose then tuned to Kristof

""hay my names Rose I couldn't help but overhear you two are looking for food well I think you will find their is a buffet in the next room although I don't know how much food will be left. Just go straight though those doors and take the fist left me and my friend will catch up we have something we some catching up to do isn't that right""

Just as she said isn't that right she looked right at Kassy and winked letting her know she knew what she had done.</div>"

""Jenica."" Kassy said to the man, using one of her childhood's friends nicknames. ""I'm sorry, I don't think I've seen any of your circus acts. That sounds interesting though, maybe you can explain it to me?"" she said, trying to sound interested to keep him off track. But, everything changed when the <span class=""bb-s"">fire nation attacked</span> girl that had been following her walked up. ""Hey! Long time no see, what has it been, three years, right? How have you been?"" she asked Kassy quickly. Kassy was shocked, but hid it well. Whoever this was knew something. Friend or foe, Kassy wasn't sure.

After she tried to convince Kristof to leave, Kassy slipped the gauntlets onto his person, hoping to lead everything off her trail. She didn't realize what she had gotten herself into, taking those. ""I'll catch up and join you in just a second."" I said to Kristof, hoping he would leave so I could figure out who this new woman her was. <span class=""bb-i"">Who are you?</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>
Naoto turned to look at the man who had just walked up to him, saying there was a theft going on. ""Sir, what was taken from that stand?"" he asked the owner. ""Something dangerous. You have to get them back, they could kill everyone here in the wrong hands!"" the man was freaking out. ""Thank you for the warning lad."" he said back to the boy. He pulled out his radio, while scanning the area for the suspect. He noticed she was now talking to two other people, one of which she handed off the object to.

""We have three dangerous suspects here. One of which is wearing a robe, handing off a dangerous object to a foreign man. The man is very tall, and bald. Possibly German. The other woman is wearing steel toecap shoes, dark blue jeans, and a black leather jacket. She looks to be American. Advise extreme caution, the object is hot, and dangerous."" Naoto announced over the radios. He looked over at the two kids, and grabbed their swords forcefully, handing them to the one kid who had originally warned them. ""Don't let them have these back. I'll be back to handle this later."" he said, pulling out his gun and marching towards the suspects. He noticed the other cops entering in the door, though they didn't seem to know where the action was.

Naoto pushed a button on his belt, which notified the other cops were he was. They looked in his direction. Naoto pushed the button in a specific order, announcing in which direction, and how far, from where he currently was, where the suspects where. The other cops instantly knew where the suspects where, and drew their guns, slowly making their way through the crowds, trying to stay low and out of sight for as long as they could.</div>"

Surely her etiquette is in need of some fine tuning. But at least she let him know where he can put his powers to good use, 

""Ah! Thank you very kindly my dear."" The statuesque man leaned over for another bow, this time directed toward the black clad girl now in front of him. During which time the sneaky little Kassy slipped a fine piece of technology, perhaps heavy enough that anyone but Kristof would immediately take notice, however, Kristof's bag was already weighted, with a simple thought that he was becoming weak, what with the lack of feed. The German man lets off a thumbs up, coupled with the the warm smile that he often resorts to.

""Why, don't I tell you all about it over some food then Jenica? If you'll excuse me, I'll allow you ladies to mingle then."" With a final bow Kristof heads off in the direction that Rose sent him in, not wishing to be imposing on the two's conversation. 

Just thinking about the mouth watering tastes that he now delights in with every bite of a new meal causes his mouth to water. Adjusting the suspenders that keep his dress pants and white collar together he takes a cursory glance around, noticing that security seems to have been beefed up, however, faces were often darting towards him, ah well, Kristof had been profilled before for crime, hopefully they were only just afraid of such a large and muscular figure in a place like this, rather than something more sinister. The large famished man continues towards the buffet room.</div>"

""I am Rose but the better question is who are you I doubt Jenica is your real name? but more importantly do you realise just how dangerous those gauntlets are&gt; they are currently switched on and if mist used they could bring down this entire building in a few seconds killing everyone inside now hand them over before someone gets hurt.""

just as Rose said that she noticed that the sound of the gauntlets was getting weaker she then heard the cops sound an alarm and one of them was talking to the others thinking she was involved.  

""shit you gave them to that Kristof fellow didn't you? well the cops are on to you and think me and Kristof are involved we have to get those gauntlets fast I can use them to create a distraction while I go an retune them to the owner before someone get hurt and we get into real trouble.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Looks like I have to do the officer's job now,</span> Kurano sighed as he looked towards the two homicidal children with laser swords. He wouldn't dare get near them, but instead attempted something else. The crowd around began to disperse as the officer left, giving Kurano a bit more space. ""Hello, children. Are you having fun?"" He stated with a clearly fake smile upon his face. <span class=""bb-i"">I don't have time to babysit, when the action is over there. Perhaps I can lead them towards it?</span> ""Why don't we put away those weapons, and, play tag instead?"" He suggested, hoping that this wouldn't lead to something even more violent happening. He brushed away his hair, and saw that now there was a child simply staring at him. <span class=""bb-i"">Whoever's parents these belong to should pay me after this,</span> he thought with a sigh.

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

Minami stayed when everyone else started to move around. It looked like a lot of people wanted to leave the convention, talking about how unsafe it was. When the crowds thinned out, she saw a man talking to two little kids. When he said the word tag, Minami's eyes lit up like headlights. His gaze caught hers, and she shouted, ""can I play too?"" Which garnered some attention. The man sighed as she walked over, though she didn't pay it any mind.</div>"

Kassy sort of shrugged when Rose asked her real name, not ready to give it up yet. After Rose explained the dangers of the gauntlets, Kassy felt really bad. She had no idea what she had grabbed, she thought it would simply be a good thing to have in case things go south. She gave in, looking down at the ground now. ""I... don't have them anymore...."" she admitted. Rose instantly caught on, and guessed what had happened to them. Kassy nodded, looking for Kristof now. ""Where'd he go?"" she asked.

Kassy could feel the energy of the cops moving in now. They were starting to feel more hyper, pumped up, and ready to pounce. ""I'm sorry, I didn't know. Quick, let's go get them before the cops stop us. They won't believe anything we say."" she then nodded to Rose. As soon as she started to move in the direction Kristof had moved in, she felt the cops moving in faster. ""I think they're going to give chase. We have to get it quick!"" Kassy whispered to Rose, trying to move faster and using the crowd to lose the cops.

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>
The man with the gloves separated from the group, heading over to where most of the food stands where located. ""I've got visual on the man with the object. He's heading towards the food stands. I'm going to cut around and stop him before he finds a way out."" Naoto announced, holding the radio in one hand, and his gun in the other. The other cops started spreading out, closing in fast on the two women who seemed to now be moving in the same direction as the other. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe they're going to use it to break a hole in the wall. We need to stop this now!</span>

""Everybody down!"" Naoto yelled, holding his gun higher in the air to make it seen by the crowds. There was a delayed reaction, no one knowing what had happened. He didn't shoot it, but enough people saw it and screamed out. Most people ducked, and started spreading away from him. Mostly the people that didn't realize he was a cop, of course. He then aimed his gun towards the man, running towards him to close the gap. ""On the ground, hands in the air! I want to see everything you do!"" he yelled. He couldn't shoot if he had to... he might actually lose sight of the man due to the screaming and running going on now. He still had a few seconds before he would be close enough to do anything...</div>"

Rose then whistled signalling Spike to come to her. Spike heard the whistle and ran to Rose he could easily follow her sent as he got closer he saw Naoto holding a gun and heading for Kristof he ran at him at full speed closing the cap in seconds as the people in the crowed quickly moved out of his fearing he would attack them. Spike then jumped at and pounced on Naoto biting the hand he was holding the gun in. Rose then looked to Kassy and quickly followed her to the food stands.

Kristof had just reached the food stands and found some delicious confections, pies, cakes, brownies, anything sweet and yummy could be found there. And how delighted he was when the man found his favorite treat of all, blueberry pie. Boy they sure do go all out at these conventions, a stray thought that had entered his head as he munched on a slice of pie that tasted and smelt simply divine. Next to impossible for him to explain, his new powers had let him taste and smell fourth dimensional flavors and aromas. Distracted by his thoughts and the prospect of such deserts Kristof notices far too late that the buffet center had nearly emptied out, had he been standing there that long?

Then he heard it, ""On the ground, hands in the air! I want to see everything you do!"" gazing around quickly Kristof notices a single policeman who almost matches his height and physique rushing in his direction. And finally realizes that there is a gun pointed directly at him. Without thinking too much of the situation the muscular man turns about face, seeing not a soul behind him. He turns slowly back to the disgruntled officer,

""I know I ate the last slice, but that doesn't call for violence."" He says in his usual broken tone. Soon Kristof understands the severity of this situation. "" I assure you sir, I may look dangerous, but that's an act."" The police officer simply gestures rather menacingly that Kristof needs to be on the ground, well if he isn't interested in receiving a bullet or two. With a resigned attitude the strongman complies, kneeling down and finishing off the last remaining bit of pie before placing his arms behind his head.

""And what is it that the TPD (Tokyo Police Department) think I have done this time, friend?"" In the past few years they've really been on edge, Kristof recalls the numerous times something like this has occurred to him in this country. He must be cursed.</div>"

Honobi watched as things began getting out of control, he stood up and slowly pulled out his sword, the shine of the metal could be seen if people paid attention enough. He then looked up, he turned his sword so it was the blunt end, to make sure he wouldn't hurt innocents. He then stepped forward slowly, standing beside the cop, looking at Rose.

""I will not allow innocents to be hurt, but, I will not attack those who are innocent. I may not know your name, but, I know you are innocent in this matter. Don't force me to fight you. Leave now, and let me deal with things.""

He looked to the cop, then to the dog. He grabbed it's neck, putting pressure on it's airpipe, as he did, he began to lift him up, making it unable to breath, and eventually, forcing it to let go. He then looked up to the cop.

""Leave this girl, your problem does not reside with her. The one in the cloak, she is the thief. From observing the events, she gave the item to that muscle man there without him noticing. These two do not have the item.""

He looked to the two, then huffed. He then looked back to the cop, then to the muscle man.

Slade and Blade

The two watched as their weapons were taken off them by a cop, then were given to another man, they both looked up to him, listening to what he had to say, then, they looked to each other with a giggle. Blade stepped back, he pressed his hand together, and then slowly began to separate them, making a sure energy ball, soon, it grew bigger, then began to change shape, until it created a gun.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Here's a fun idea! Let's play cops and robbers. Me and Slade will be the cops, you be the robber. Don't let us kill you!""</font>

He giggled, and made another gun, handling Slade, who seemed a little nervous now. He was nowhere near as dangerous as Blade, he was more violent, and prone to hurt others more, although, Blade still saw it as a game. Slade saw it as a game, but, he knew some games could hurt others. Although, Blade was the leader, so, he just nodded, grabbing the gun.

Shela

Shela watched as a commotion started up, she shivered a little, and slowly got herself up. She walked out of the shadows with her teddy, going over to the samurai and cop.

""Sirs, can't this be solved peacefully, if not......then....sorry for bothering you.""

She looked to the muscle man, and then to her teddy.</div>"

I am going to have to tell you to stand down now, this is official police business, and we have the matter under control."" Naoto tried his best to sound formal through the pain in his hand. He picked up his gun off the ground with his other hand as he listened to what the man was saying to him. ""If what you say is true, then the man has nothing to fear from the police. If what you say is true, he will be released from custody <span class=""bb-i"">after</span>the matter is settled. But not before."" Naoto said, now starting to move closer. He was shocked to see the two women were already at the muscle man, and the cloaked one already snatching the man's bag while he was on the ground. ""Hey, stop!"" Naoto called out, raising his gun, but it was too late, the woman ducked around a corner.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kassy</span>
""Okay, I've got it."" Kassy said to Rose, pulling the device out of the bag and handing it over. ""You'd better hurry though, from the looks of it things are starting to get out of control...."" she said, extremely nervous with all the chaos happening.

""I hope you won't mind, but I'll gladly collect those thieves and place them in your custody. You see the cloaked one, has just stolen a bag of mine, something that I find precious is within."" Kristof stood up still staring at the pair of men in front of him arms folded behind his head. He could see in Naoto's eyes that he just couldn't have pulled the trigger, a truly good man. 

""If you'll excuse me, I haven't much time."" The large German man fixes up his suspenders and turns about. Just before he leaves his voice can be heard again, 

""Oh and little one?"" Likely referring to Shela ""I won't let anyone here cause anymore violence on this night!""

A calm before the storm, she had stopped moving forward, it was Kristof's time to act. They were almost within his grasp, however, something dreadful had caused him to end the chase. A wave of horrid sound, white noise, flushed over Kristof. His pace slowed, his vision blurred, and his knees weakened. 

The tower of a man came to a kneel, not unlike the one that Naoto forced him into. The shaken man heaved, a thick red substance coated Kristof's hands as he covered his mouth. He fell to a side, blood dripping from his ears as well. Such a powerful device should never be in the hands of a rash young and unthinking person like they were then.

Just as Kurano started to back up, he heard a loud screeching noise come from farther away. It caused him to cover his ears, and take the advantage to sprint away. ""hey, kid!"" He shouted towards the orange haired girl. ""Might want to start running!"" 

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span> 

Minami nearly doubled over when something ear-piercingly loud entered her head. She was confused for a moment, but saw that the guy was taking a chance to get out. She panicked for a moment, and then began to chase after him. ""Wait!"" she called after him. ""Why are we playing tag with guns!?"" The sound ended, and now a ringing was left in her ears. She could see that a room over, there were people still inside. She ran, hair bobbing and dress flapping, with the man towards the buffet area.</div>"

Kassy kept up with Rose as much as she could, which was pretty easy considering she stopped to drop off the gauntlets. She followed after her as they ran, presumably towards the exits. Kassy looked around her, and noticed most of the cops were still dazed, and unaware of where they had gone, but some were passed out, and other's unaffected. ""How many of them are there? It looks like there's so many, that they all have reacted differently."" Kassy said as she turned back towards Rose as she ran with her. ""By the way, why are you helping me? Your'll go to jail too you know. There's no way you can explain any of this."" Kassy asked her new 'friend' as they started to near the doors.

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">What the fu- arrg! This sound... where is it coming from!? I can't... concentrate... I can't... think straight!</span> Naoto screamed within his head. He was kneeling on the ground, grasping his ears in a futile attempt to block out the sound. Even after it had stopped he still heard a deafening ringing, enough to keep him from standing. <span class=""bb-i"">Why won't it go away!? I can't think straight!</span> he yelled more inside his own head, before letting out a yell audible to everyone else. At which point after his yell, he noticed something strange. He saw the two women bolting for the doors... straight for a swirling vortex they didn't seem to notice. It was a fourth dimensional object... like... a hole through space.... Naoto tried to stand straight and yell out, but he was too paralyzed to stop them.

<div class=""bb-h1"">The Big Event</div>
<div class=""bb-h3"">And now we're back after the short commercial break!</div>
A giant fourth dimensional hole opened up in front of the doors to the building, only visible to those with sight. Those strongly connected with energy could feel a change happening. Those with sound, cannot hear anything yet. The hole stretches, and warps, changing size. After the short few seconds it was happening, it all collapses within itself, revealing a creature in it's place as the hole has disappeared. The creature falls a few feet to the ground, shaking itself and sniffing the air as it takes it it's surroundings.

The creature walks on four feet... if that describes it well.... If it were to stand, it would be eight feet tall. It seems to have several extra arms coming out of it's body in random directions, all of which are wrapped around it like it a blanket. It has no eyes, or visible ears, but that doesn't stop it from knowing everything happening around it. It's pale in color, while it's arms are various unnamed colors only those with sight have ever seen.

The creature takes a single step forward, and makes a barking sound... a sound only those with sound can hear. It sounds like what one would assume was a demon, combined with what one would think the hounds of hell might sound like. It twitches it's head slightly, before sprinting faster than the human eye could see, then disappearing from it's original location. Through it's movements it smashes past Rose and Kassy, knocking them out of the way like ragdolls, before appearing near one of the group of police. Those that can see it have recovered enough to react, by aiming their guns and firing. As each bullet would seemingly hit the beast, it would move somewhere else nearby. At one point, it ends up next to the cops, and sends out three of it's arms, grabbing three of the cops that saw it, before disappearing to an unknown location, seemingly destroying the cops in a painless death.

The monster reappears behind Kurano, facing the two twins. It slowly examines them, while also noting Kurano and the young girl behind him. The creature opens it's mouth, revealing several tongues seemingly moving through each other, as it taunts it's prey, ready to pounce and destroy them in a simple hit.</div>"

Kurano heaved his legs forward as if he were trying to win the hundred meter dash. Though, a noise near petrified him. A hellish barking coming from the entrance. He entered the buffet room and looked down a corridor. Within an instant, three officers completely disappeared as he could hear the sound of snarls. Kurano was about to start moving backwards when he heard steps and a growling sound behind him. <span class=""bb-i"">One of them is here? Now? I thought they didn't attack in broad daylight.</span> His body was near frozen at the sound of it. The only thing that moved Kurano was a gentle hand grabbing his arm and pulling him. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

""You have to keep going mister! Keep running!"" Minami yelled, as she started to drag the almost catatonic man. She breathed in deep to throw him over, but caught a whiff of something near volatile. It smelled almost like death, depression. Horror. She was told these stories by her father, that when a monster was near she would smell something she had never smelled before. Minami acted quickly and tugged as hard as she could on the man's arm. ""Hurry up!"" Minami made sure she was heard, by pulling out the earplug from the man's right ear. He snapped straight back into reality.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kurano Tanaka</span>

Kurano's first instinct was to call out to the two he saw in the room. One looking like the officer he spoke to before. ""Hey, help us! One of those things are here! Do something!"" Kurano ran next to the man, seeing that he was just as paralyzed. <span class=""bb-i"">Those officers must have been friends of his,</span> Kurano thought quickly. ""Hey, we'll be joining them soon if you don't do something! I have a feeling it's being occupied by something else for now, so do something!""</div>"

Rose, Kassy and Spike ran towards the exit as Rose listened  to Kassy ""By the way, why are you helping me? Your'll go to jail too you know. There's no way you can explain any of this.""  Rose looked at her as she replied. 

""Well I never expected things to get so far out of hand originally all I wanted to do was get the Gauntlets back deactivate them  and retune them to their owner before someone got hurt. The only reason I didn't get the cops Involved was because I didn't want to risk then chasing after you and forcing you to run because if you knocked the gauntlets to hard while fleeing the cops you could have knocked the firing mechanism witch could of resulted in the building collapsing on top of us. The way I saw it this was the safest option but I never thought things would tune out like this""

as Rose finished talking something barged past her sending her flying  back into a wall. Rose slammed her left shoulder she let out a small screamed as she hit the ground. Rose struggled to her feet and took a look around she then saw three cops disappear into thin air she knew this could only mean one thing she looked around for Kassy once she saw her she ran over to her just then she stopped in her tracks hearing the bests roar coming from the room the others where in 

""shit this is bad they wont have fully recovered yet I have to do something""

""you should get out of hear one of those fourth dimensional monsters is hear and judging force of it running into us and the sound of its roar its huge.""

with that Rose and Spike ran back to the room where she left the others picking up a glock 9mm pistol that one of the cops dropped with her right hand. Once Rose had made it back to the other room she looked around but of course she  could not see it Rose closed her eyes and listened for the sound of its  heartbeat once she had found it she opened her eyes. realising it was behind Kurano Rose then aimed the gun as she shouted 

""GET DOWN"" 

Rose shouted as loud as she could then fired the gun right at the monster.

<span class=""bb-i"">Poor defenseless creatures. It hurts me so to do harm to such creatures unaware of their utter foolishness. But alas, I have been chosen as our next hero.</span> the monster thought to itself as it stepped towards the twins once more. ""Get down!"" a loud voice called from some woman. The creature didn't pick up the sound, but it felt the voice. It failed to notice the voice was that of a warning, as a bullet shot at it. The monster very plainly took the shot, doing a little bit of damage to it. The monster quickly turned towards the shooter, Rose, launching himself into the air, before moving through the fourth dimension and appearing within feet in front of her, crashing into the ground and sending her into the air.

The beast quickly snatched her from the air, then started to fade into the fourth dimension with her in his grasp. it disappeared for a few milliseconds, then reappeared. Rose remained floating in the air as he continued to hold onto her. <span class=""bb-i"">What's going on? This one is different! Why can't I... move it!</span> the creature screamed, before rapidly flashing in and out of the fourth dimension where it currently stood, attempting to move her, which failed every time. With it's anger reaching it's peak point, he launched her at the twins, knocking them over instantly like bowling pins. t figured they would be injured enough not to cause anymore problems, so it turned to it's next victim.

<span class=""bb-b"">Naoto</span>
Naoto was completely frozen. He could see again, he could move... but his brain hurt. ""Hey, we'll be joining them soon if you don't do something! I have a feeling it's being occupied by something else for now, so do something!"" a voice yelled at him, telling him to act. Naoto blinked a few more times, before taking control once more and robotically aiming his gun at the monster. He let three shots fire after Rose had shot at it just a split second before him, but each of his bullets missed as the creature vanished instantly after her shot. Naoto quickly found where the monster was after it had moved, but it was too late as it tossed the woman at the two helpless children. ""Oh my god."" Naoto said, wide eyed.

Naoto aimed his gun again, letting loose a barrage of bullets from his clip. Soon he ran out, after each bullet had missed. The creature appeared to simply step out of the way, as if it were an every day occurrence. The creature turned to Naoto, and licked it's lips as it barked at him. Naoto didn't hear it's sound, but figured from it's mouth's movements. ""We should run."" he said to the boy beside him as he emptied his clip and started loading in another one as he started to move backwards.</div>"

Kurano ducked instinctively as a bullet whizzed over his head. he turned to look at the source of the bullet, and shots rang out from the officer he had just spoken to. Kurano covered his right ear, which rang from the sound of the pistol being fired. a foreign girl with a guard dog it looked like, was the one who shouted at him. Perhaps a hunter of the creatures? Though, as Kurano thought this, his hope was near instantly dashed. Within a single moment, the girl seemed to disappear. Kurano could hear the faint sounds of snarling before she was sent flying towards the two demonic children. Kurano would have uttered a sigh of relief if he were in different circumstances, though now something was more apparent to him. This one didn't seem as random as the other reports he had read.

Kurano nearly went into shock again, but an adrenaline began to flow through him. His head pulsed, and his limbs began to go numb. He heard the officer say something for only a moment before more shots were fired. Kurano ducked and moved towards a table to get underneath it, grabbing the orange-haired girl's shaking arm. A near ferocious sound came from the beast another time, and Kurano heard the officer's advice loud and clear through the ringing. ""We should run."" Kurano's heart had started to pound harder and louder. He nodded towards the policeman and stood up from his position. ""I'll make sure she gets out of here with us. A kid doesn't deserve to die to one of those things. And neither do you, sir.""  He made sure to get a firm grip on the girl's hand and started to make towards the hallway leading to the entrance. Kurano could see a few officers down and out on the ground, likely trying to recover from whatever that blast was earlier. He went to swoop in for one of the pistols laying on the ground.

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

Minami covered her ears and nearly fell to the ground once the policeman emptied as many rounds as he could into thin air. She had no idea what anyone was doing, but Minami could tell something evil was in the room. her arm was grabbed forcefully, and she was nearly dragged under a nearby table, before the man dragging her stood up. He looked down at Minami with a determined look, and started to dash towards the entrance. Minami tried her best to keep up, his grip tugging on her arm as they ran.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">You'd better run now while you can, foolish human. I feel no pain in harming you, you filthy monster!</span> the monster thought angrily towards himself when he had turned to Naoto. The man shot several shots at it, but each one was easily dodged. The monster stepped forward slowly, then faded into the fourth dimension for a split second, reappearing a few feet where he had started, but already set in a full sprint towards Naoto. Naoto finished loading another clip, and was now stepping backwards much faster.

<span class=""bb-b"">[Kassy]</span>
""Rose..."" I tried to call out. I slowly stood up after the ram the monster had done to me, I noticed I had cuts and bruises all over myself after the hard landing. ""Rose... are you okay?"" I asked, slowly walking while I tried to follow her. I noticed one of the police men had his gun readied, and was firing at the air. Two other people were sprinting towards the door. I sensed a bizarre feeling... the same one I had felt when encountering the other monsters before. I could feel it was moving towards the police officer at a rapid pace... but... I could feel more than that....

""Officer! I know what you have to do! Stop moving backwards, move forward!"" I yelled at the cop, trying to explain to him what I was feeling. ""Wait, what!? Are you insane!"" the officer yelled as it let his second clip fly. I held my ears as he did so, and felt the monster was drawing closer. ""Just do it, it'll work!"" I yelled at him, but he shoot his head and ignored me, moving backwards faster now. I sighed. I raised my hands in the air, adjusting the energy I could feel within the room. I felt a spot behind the cop, and sent a strong force into it to send a blow to the officers back, sending him lightly forward at the monster once the monster was nearly on top of him... luckily, just before the cop was almost ready to side-step out of the way. My plan, appeared to work.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Monster}</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Yes, keep retreating!</span> the monster thought as the human officer stepped faster backwards after the other human spoke to it. The monster couldn't hear what they said, but whatever it was was bad advice if it sent him farther away. The monster was about to ram into Naoto, but suddenly a small burst of energy sent Naoto towards the monster at the last second. ""Wait, stop!"" the monster screamed in his tongue, as he screeched with his feet like brakes, sensing a false surge of power being sent towards him. The monster moved through the fourth dimension, and reappeared closer towards the entrances near Kurano and Minami. <span class=""bb-i"">How did he- how could he send energy at me? He senses sound!</span> the monster thought incorrectly. Naoto was pushed forward, not sending in an attack...

<span class=""bb-b"">[Naoto]</span>
""Why did you do that!?"" Naoto screamed at the girl Kassy as he loaded another clip. ""It worked, right? You're not hit? I can't feel him in front of you anymore."" the girl talked back. ""Shh! You were just lucky he moved at the last second."" Naoto told her. Naoto turned quickly, with his gun readied, looking for the monster. When he spotted the monster, the monster was standing and panting next to the retreating civilians. ""Look out, he's right next to you!"" Naoto called out, aiming his gun. He wanted to shoot, but the two were too close.... <span class=""bb-i"">Why isn't it moving? It's like it's... thinking.... Arg, move already, I have a clear shot!</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">&lt;Kristof&gt;:</span>
A man popped out from behind an overturned table, wearing medical gear and shaky glasses. ""Oh. I don't hear him. Must be my chance to get out now!"" the man spoke, ducking back down before leaping over the table shortly afterwards, holding a bag of medical equipment. A syringe fell out and landed next to you. The man heard it before it hit the ground, sliding with his feet to a stop. ""No no, not that one! I need that one to get out of here!"" he whispered angrily at you, as if you had pulled it from his bag yourself.

He set his bag down and sprinted the two feet and snatched it up. He turned on his heels and almost left you, but stopped in freeze-frame with his right leg stretched out behind him. ""Wait, you can be another distraction."" he then turned back around at you. ""I'm hear the fourth dimension... so that makes me a high priority target... if I revive you... you might do me a favor and take a hit for me..."" he talked to your knocked-out body. He spun towards you and dove for the ground next to you, landing on his knees and readying his syringe. ""Hope this works on you big guy, I'm not used to working on so much fat."" he continued as he stabbed the device into a vein and emptied it into your blood. ""Okay... opportune time in... three... two... one... WAKE UP!!"" he counted, then yelled at you at the very last second, which is exactly when your body takes in the most of the medicine at the same time, enabling most of your senses for a split second... allowing you to hear his extremely loud and annoying voice as he yelled for you to wake up at exactly the pitch time.</div>"

Keep my promise."" The last words Kristof thought that he would ever say. On the brink of death's door the man stood stalwart. A shining tower in the looming darkness. The gates had opened to him and within, a sight brought the manly man to tears. A figure outreaches from beyond the threshold, beckoning him within. He strides forward, this was his time. 

However, something, some dark grasp took hold of the man, dragging him away from that which he sought. Further and further away from the door, Kristof finally broke the deafening silence as tears ran down his face, ""Sie haben immer noch von mir, und ich will mit dir eines Tages wieder Alessa zu sein!"" This was not his time.

""WAKE UP!!"" a man loomed over, screaming at the bulky German. Kristof sat up from his fetal cradle. And after mumbling something in German glances directly toward the man who had rescued him from happiness, a fire of frustration lingered in his just-resuscitated milky eyes. Blood is caked upon his face from the earlier attack. In his usual, albeit weakly, broken Japanese Kristof spoke,

""Must have been something in that pie."" He chuckled softly before standing up, removing the tingling syringe from his arm he gave a cursory glance around the hall, chaos it would seem, people were running from something he could not see. And others attempting to injure it, how strange. Then it hit him. An acrid odor that permeated his very being. The foul taste of death. Placing his large hands upon the doctor's shoulders he spoke,

""Quickly, tell me all that has occurred here!""</div>"

Minami attempted at her best to keep up, swinging her free arm as hard as she could to help her legs push harder. The man let go of her arm almost causing her to fall over. He swung his own arms around, and reached for a gun on the floor near some cops. Minami looked around, and could see the very large man being attended to by a doctor. Or, maybe the doctor was telling him something? Minami couldn't quite tell. Suddenly, her arm was clutched again, she yelped, thinking that it was whatever invisible thing was in the building. ""Why did we stop? Is something wrong?"" She asked him, looking upwards into his distraught face. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Kurano Tanaka</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Where is the damn thing? Come on, make some noise.</span> Kurano pulled out his left earplug with the hand he was currently holding a rather shiny  revolver in. <span class=""bb-i"">The cops don't go lightweight, apparently.</span> His sound could now be amplified, as he focused on the noises that the beast had made before. <span class=""bb-i"">Growling, snarling, it sounded very animal-like.</span> He focused on this, and could see that the girl was asking him something. He turned to face her, and thought for a moment. He grabbed Minami's hand once again. ""I had to catch my breath,"" he said, turning his attention to the gun in his possession. Kurano looked towards the end of the hallway where the officer was, hearing him shout out, ""look out, he's right next to you!"" Kurano panicked, and shot off his gun towards the right. The sound of the gun nearly popped his ear drums. He dropped the gun, and fell to the ground, covering his ears. <span class=""bb-i"">Why do I have to be so stupidly sensitive to this crap?!</span> He thought, trying to drown out the ringing again. He reached for his pockets, and pulled out his earplugs again. His hand shaking as he did so, remembering suddenly what the officer shouted before his panic. ""Drop down kid!"" He yelled to Minami, as he felled her onto himself.</div>"

""Eeeh... caa... your arm...."" the man tried to speak, looking over at your giant hand on his shoulder. He appeared to be slightly afraid... but... it wasn't just that. Embarrassment, perhaps? ""Uh... yeah, the pie did it."" he said very quickly, trying to free himself from your light grasp and towering position. ""Um... what happened... uh... sounds... scary sounds... then cops disappeared... then... some people are still here... and... they're all fighting..."" he said, looking at the ground and kicking his feet now.

<span class=""bb-b"">&lt;Kurano&gt;:</span>
After Kurano's shot went off, the creature seemed to move slightly... but you're unsure of whether or not the bullet him. After you decide to drop to the ground, and yell for the other kid to drop down, the bullets rang through the air, hitting almost exactly where you had shot before, meaning the monster probably hadn't moved enough to dodge it. Suddenly, you felt movement around you, but not of the monster, as it rushed up towards the beast, sending him away.

<span class=""bb-b"">[Kassy]</span>
""Let's see if this works!"" Kassy called out right after the cop shot at the monster. She pulled in energy around the kids nearby, shoving it towards the monster. The monster flinched at it, and side-stepped out of the way before reappearing elsewhere in the room. He was now standing much closer to Kurano, but paying little attention to him. ""Quick, quick, now's your chance to get out here!"" she yelled at the two kids. She started to sprint for the exit herself... but couldn't help but think about the musclehead and the doctor. <span class=""bb-i"">Should I go back?</span> she slowly though as she ran away.

<span class=""bb-b"">[Naoto]</span>
Naoto shot after the beast as he had a chance to hit it now. He had seen the kid's first shot hit it, which was surprising. The monster flinched at it, but didn't react beyond that. Naoto's shots all hit the creature, starting to wake it back up from whatever thought process it was going through. One hit the head, where an eye might be, revealing some sort of glowing... stuff... inside. It seemed to change colors, and move around on it's own. It appeared to want to escape from the shell of the body, like blood, but it pulled itself back in before it did. <span class=""bb-i"">What in the world is that?</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">{Monster}</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">This is something I've never seen before, it's just not possible! Maybe the ancients lied to me?</span> the creature thought as bullets were shot at it and hit it several times. It felt the last one hit a sensitive spot, making him flinch more. Then, suddenly, what appeared to be from his perspective, the two kids beside him lunged themselves at him, forcing himself to react and back away before traveling through the fourth dimension. He arrived next to Kristof, and the doctor. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe... maybe they know what they were doing! Maybe they're tricked us and have continued farther in their searches! Perhaps now they know what they are doing, and only wish to destroy our realm! If the ancients didn't know this, then I must retreat and warn them!</span> the creature continued it's conversation with itself inside it's head. He let out a loud roar, louder than before, as well as a horrible release of his smell. He continued for several seconds. He could feel the smell he was creating had more to it, as it all clumped together, and started becoming a physical object... a sort of hole.... It was building up slowly, but not big enough for him to retreat into.</div>"

Was it something he had said? Wriggling himself from Kristof's grasp the strange, sad little man jumbled his words, maybe he wasn't used to seeing such a manly German. Unable to truly decipher any of the doctor's words from a combination of his mediocre understanding of the Japanese language as well as his savior's frightened speech, he simply patted the man upon his shoulders and thanked him, although a feeling of disappointment came over Kristof, so wishing to see the one he loved again.

A stench that seemed almost evil crept from behind the bulky man. Caressing his olfactories with sweet mind numbing decay. It was as if the festering corpse of a skunk had been vomited on by innumerable human babies. But there was also a hint of cheap air freshener that simply made it worse. Needless to say it reeked something fierce. Kristof choked on the sulfurous stench, however another evil lurked upon the horizon, a lingering taste that could only be described as, ""Much worse"" invaded his lungs. The very air had become stale, this was something vile.

Slowly turning to face the unknown the horrendous stench only grew from there. Standing firm Kristof was surprised when he had seen nothing, yet he could tell that this point in space directly in front of him was the source of the olfactory destroyer. Quickly glancing over to the doctor who had now been reduced to a mess, kneeling on the hall grounds clasping hands upon his ears, a solitary pointing finger at the very same direction of the odor was all Kristof needed.

With all of the built man's might he charged, shoulder pointed at the direction of this invisible evil. He had just arrived from the brink of death, it was clear that he would be needed. Kristof closed his eyes and put all the fury built up in his mind after the doctor had stolen him from death.</div>"

Kurano was starting to get tired of dropping to floor almost every twenty seconds, before a whiz of shots flew overhead. They all disappeared the moment he could hear something make a sort of flesh-piercing noise, despite nothing being there. The beast really was right behind him. Kurano lifted himself up, slowly, putting his earplugs in. He lifted up the little girl, and heard someone shout out at him. ""quick, quick, now's your chance to get out of there!"" Kurano didn't take another second to react, before a deafening roar let loose. The girl ran forward as Kurano could still hear it's piercing sound despite his ear plugs holding it back. He felt like he knew the exact spot where the monster now was, as he grabbed the revolver from the floor once more. He steadied his grip, about to pull the trigger and fire into the invisible creature once more. 

Kurano's expression changed, seeing a large foreign man running almost straight at him. <span class=""bb-i"">Can this guy see it? Or is he just going to tackle me for no reason?</span> Kurano hesitated, not knowing whether the beast would just move straight out of his way once he fired. He didn't want to hit the tank-like man running straight for it with an almost triumphant stride to his step, but Kurano had to take the chance. The man likely wasn't going to stop. His pointer finger pulled down on the trigger, the hammer of the weapon about to send a bullet either into the man, or into the invisible creature. His hope being that the metal would disappear mid-air.</div>"

With your sudden charge at the monster, the doctor literally dives behind a nearby table, expecting some sort of explosion about to happen with your shear strength and size about to ram the monster. The moment you make contact, the monster's portal closes. The monster didn't expect your attack... nor, where you ready for it take the attack as badly as it had. Your shoulder had minimal pain done to it as the monster was smashed by your attack, despite it's massively much bigger size.

The large man makes contact just after your bullet disappears, but seemingly farther away than were you expected the monster to be.... The monster stopped it's horrifying scream, and changed into a sort of painful whimper as it was crushed by the German strongman.

Naoto saw the strongman charge the monster, and the young boy shoot at it. The bullet traveled fast, but it disappeared into the hole before it close afterwards. The strongman seemed take off a few pounds after the monster, as it was crushed like an insect much smaller than itself. Naoto lowered his own weapon as he knew the fight was over. The monster laid still after the powerful impact. <span class=""bb-i"">How... did he deal that much damage?</span> Naoto thought to himself, as it appeared the battle was over finally.</div>"

Minami's nose was relieved at last of the terrible smell. The big man, the nice man, and the cop all finished the job. Minami breathed in and out slowly, with a smile across her face. ""Did you do it?"" She asked, with her innocence shining through.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kurano Tanaka</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">It's over then.</span> Kurano drew ragged breaths, staring at the man who looked like he was floating mid-air. The little girl asked him a question. ""Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure we did."" Kurano suspected whatever the large man was on top of to be the monster. ""Need any help getting up?"" He asked, trying to be polite. He added a question however. ""Were you able to see the thing? Or, did you just blindly slam into it? Bravo either way."" Kurano dropped the gun, and muddled his hair for a bit. He reached into a shirt pocket and pulled out his smokes and a lighter. He lit a cigarette, and puffed on it triumphantly. ""Everyone okay?"" He said, after some time cooling down.</div>"

Kristof must have smashed this being good. The vile smell and acrid taste lingered for but a few moments more. He still could not see the creature strewn across the buffet hall, but he could feel it as he pushed himself away. A strange texture, one that did not make logical sense in the strongman's mind. 

""I'll be fine."" Kristof spoke somewhat feebly in a poor dialect. Sitting upon the slain beast now the foreign man glared across the convention floor. A college aged boy, seeming to just have arrived from classes. Beside him a much younger girl who seemed somewhat gaunt, her orange hair appeared rather striking through Kristof's blurred vision. A doctor, the one who has saved him looked away as soon as their gazes met, rather bashful wasn't he? A heavily built policeman, one of the last standing. And a young woman who appeared just as gaunt, if not more so than the small girl, her name was Jenica, the thief.

Finally placing his eyes back to the pair of kids close to him. Kristof spoke to answer the young man's questions, ""See? That I could not, however, I could smell the putrid odor, taste the stale air, and through the help of the frightened doctor behind me, hear the beast."" The foreign man spoke in his usual broken Japanese. ""And I couldn't be better."" He quickly added with a hint of sarcasm, not wanting to go in detail about his brush with death. Staring directly at the college boy he spoke once more, ""Those are bad for you, quit while you can young one."" Kristof let off a warm and endearing smile.</div>"

Naoto flipped the safety on his gun and finished putting it away in it's holster. He slowly walked over to the beast with the strongman sitting on top, and seemingly everyone else was gathered around. Even the thief he was after had wandered over, before stopping and thinking over a few things herself. Naoto reached the beast, and looked it over. He examined the head, where the shot was, and looked at the glowing he had seen before. It was still as vibrant as it had originally been, but the beast showed no signs of moving. ""Odd. This creature has something inside of it, and it still looks alive. I don't know what to make of it."" he said with a short sigh. ""But, from the looks of it... I think it might still be alive."" he said, then looking up at the strongman to make sure he heard.

<span class=""bb-b"">[Kassy]</span>
The young-minded thief stopped before the group, looking up at the musclehead sitting atop what was supposed to be the beast. The officer walked over and started to examine it, before making a few comments about it, though he didn't seem very worried even after what he had said. 'Jenica' then turned on her heels, ready to make her way to the door, but at that precise movement had handcuffs thrown on her hands behind her back. ""You knew this was coming. I'm sure this will all settle over soon, especially since you've saved this place today."" the officer said, turning her to face him. ""That is, what's left of it."" she sighed. The officer looked at her face, showing recognition in his own eyes. ""Oh, so I was correct. You were that one I was sent after. What a coincidence you stuck around long enough for me to catch you, as well as for me to be the one to have the honors of taking you in."" the officer said, before turning her back around, then receiving a blast in the chest, sending him into the beast's head. The girl sent energy into the hand-cuffs, snapping them off instantly, and bolted for the doors quickly.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Unexpected Visitor}</span>
A man walked in the doors, forcing Kassy to skid to a stop before him, holding herself in a defensive stance. ""No worries about that, you've been excused of all crimes. In fact, all of you have. All of you have been sentenced for various reasons, all within the last hour, but they have been dealt with."" the man said. It was now obvious he had two armed guards standing beside him, fully dressed in very futuristic-looking red armor. They wore black visors, hiding their face, and were outfitted with fully-automatic sub-machine guns of an unknown type. ""I'm sorry, what was I accused of?"" Naoto asked after he picked himself up after the blast. ""You failed to call fo backup in time, and completely missed the fact this young miss had stolen a very dangerous device, which young Tanaka had to warn you about."" the man said very seriously. ""That's not a crime!"" Naoto shot back. ""It is when you decided to not shoot her."" the man responded shortly after.

""As for the rest of you, it's very simple. Messing with official police business is a crime, and all of you would be sent to jail even after your heroics. The times have changed, alas, otherwise they would have easily forgiven you. But, lucky for the bunch of you, I have convinced them to forgive your 'crimes', as they see it in their eyes, under one condition. And that is if you all come work for me. Even the young misses Shiroka.  I am aware she is a runaway from home, and has no one to take care of her. But, I believe it is up to her to decide her fate, as I have been given that much leeway. Come work for me, as I see all of you have powers beyond your comprehension, or you can go back home to your parents. The rest of you do not have this option. It's either work under my supervision, or go to jail.""

""I don't see why what I did was a crime! I'm an officer, one of the best mind you, and I fulfilled my duties. I didn't let harm come to others as best to my ability, I didn't risk the lives of others-"" he said, but was shortly interrupted, ""Except for when you shot at the beast as he stood next to Tanaka and Shiroka."" the mysterious man cut in quickly. ""Don't try to cut your way out of this. As horrible as it sounds, the government is not as they used to be, and are willing to throw you in jail without a proper investigation. You should consider yourselves lucky you're going to work for me, as I'm going to change your lives. All of you have powers, as I'm sure you're partially aware of, but you all hold much more than the average man. If you're willing to join us, then I can explain. If not, then it would be too dangerous to announce this information to all of you. But I will say this.... Young Tanaka, did you not feel the energy as it rushed passed you, right after you had shot the creature and dove for the ground? That was the young thief... Kassy, not Jenica, by the way... she used her powers over energy to send that. You can't feel that without control over it as well... or at least, the possibility to control it."" the man smiled, feeling like he let loose a secret he shouldn't have.

<span class=""bb-b"">{<span class=""bb-s"">The Doctor's Evil Twin</span> A Mysterious lab-coat Man}</span>
Another man burst through the doors behind the first and his men, quickly scanning the room in several tight spins. ""What! What happened to my convention!?"" he screamed loudly. He stopped spinning, staring at Kassy and the rest of the group behind her. ""All of you did this! Guards, shoot them! Shoot all of them down!"" he commanded the other man's guards. The guards stood there, ignoring his commands, as they could feel the real commander did not wish them to do as they were just told. ""What are you waiting for!? Shoot all of these idiots! They broke my convention, and my countless inventions! Shooooot theeemmm!"" he yelled, jumping into the air after he faced them, clenching his fists. ""Enough."" the original mysterious man told this new man wearing a lab coat. The lab-coated man slumped down, facing his feet. He then bolted upright, and got right in the 'main-man's' face. ""Wait. You're not planning on hiring them, are you?"" he asked, sounding like it would be the end of the world if what he said was true. ""That's up to them."" the lead man said.</div>"

Kurano took a quick puff and smothered his cigarette into an upturned ashtray, as per the strongman's request. Kurano tussled his hair and looked about at everyone now gathered. He listened to the words of the officer, not quite understanding what he said. But, understanding the officer had the power of sight, seeing as he knew that something was moving inside of the dead creatures' corpse. Kurano smiled as justice was served somewhat with the apprehension of the thief. Though, sighing as she broke from the cuffs. ""You'd think that those shackles wou-"" Kurano stopped, hearing footsteps from outside the convention. 

The main entrance doors opened, as three confident looking men stepped inside. Kurano didn't recognize the armor of the two guards. <span class=""bb-i"">Is this a private army? A mercenary group?</span> He thought curiously, staring at their sleek designs. The man in the middle began to explain that whatever 'crimes' they committed were let go. Kurano stood a bit nervous, as the officer was being accused of. When the agent-like man spoke of the little girl, Kurano wasn't very shocked. Runaways were fairly commonplace, though why she had come in to the convention was a mystery to him. Her grip on him tightened however, like she didn't want to go home despite having to work for a mysterious corporation. It was then, a major piece of information hit him. 

Kurano folded his arms, and a shocked expression washed across his pale face. Knowing he would have to work, or go to jail almost crushed him. ""W-what about my classes? I still have to pay tuition even if I don't go, and I'm supposed to be a lawyer, not a civil worker,"" he snapped under the stres of the situation. Upon hearing that the thief girl had manipulated the energy after his shot, Kurano thought back. ""Yes, well, I recall feeling something, but the stress and chaos of the moment had my attention. It could have been the creature doing that,"" he guessed, completely shunning the notion of being able to feel energy.

Kurano nearly jumped at the sound of the doors bursting open from another person. A srange, small, and almost crazy looking man stepped in. Kurano held back a smile from hearing his reaction to the chaos. Kurani paused for a moment at hearing the agent say, ""that's up to them."" Kurano cleared his throat. ""If you can pay my tuition, and somehow awaken these 'powers' that I have, then I see no reason why not. Everything's been too boring anyways, and I'm tired of paying off those loan sharks, only for them to accuse me of paying them late."" 

Kurano looked at the man, and dropped his folded arms, wanting desperately for a smoke to alleviate the stress. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

Minami being told that she could potentially go back to her parents, or work for mysterious people made her feel scared. She didn't say anything until Tanaka's response, feeling intimidated to answer the creepy man's question ""If, I can have friends. I'll work for you,"" she barely mustered to say. Minami clutched at Tanaka's arms and moved behind him. The scientist frightened Minami even more, almost causing her to go completely behind Kurano.</div>"
4381,Fourth Dimension,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-07 18:01:00,Unraveller,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Seeing the policeman who was planning on arresting the poor strongman earlier Kristof grew somewhat nervous, was he getting ready to arrest him now that they had defeated whatever evil it was that invaded the convention? The man began examining the creature that they had stopped, the one beneath Kristof in fact. The bulky man sitting atop the beast eyed the policeman, giving a casual smile. However, as the man began to speak the strongman's nervousness returned.

""Still alive? Something inside?"" The bulky man inquired, not sure what to make of the development. He spoke again, ""Are you sure? How can you tell? It's stench has mostly subsided."" Kristof sat firm upon the beast, making sure that it couldn't escape if it had been simply playing dead. A thought came to his mind, ""Does that mean you can see it, sir?""

Unable to get too many answers from the rather awed policeman due to the unannounced arrival of some mysterious man with two bodyguards, Kristof turned in place, now staring at the man who had simply exuded authority. Taking in everything that this figure had said, albeit missing a few words here and there, yet another strange man entered the scene.

He was annoying, unmanly, and worst of all ungrateful that the people here had risked their lives to stop such a vile being from taking any more innocent lives. Finally with a sigh, the strongman stood from his invisible perch, towering over the rest of the figures in the hall. Striding over to the four unknown men who had just entered the area, the entire time glaring at this puny little lab-coat clad man. Outstretching a thick hand in hopes for a shake Kristof spoke, still feeling weary from his earlier revival, 

""I am Kristof Brandt, and it would seem I have no other choice. I do not fully understand what is occurring here but I have a feeling that we shall all have a part to play in the future."" Now staring directly into the boss man's visage. ""You may take me, you may take away the few of us, but do not drag children into whatever plans you have. Is their innocence in need of ruining?"" With a sigh Kristof pointed at the doctor who had saved his life, ""If we are to all be charged with something here then have that one charged with taking away something I had longed to see."" The strongman's blue eyes had grown slightly watery before wiping them away with his free hand.</div>"

The man first responded to Kurano, turning his head slightly in his direction, while pushing the lab-coat man's rantings off to the side mentally. He listened carefully, though he appeared to already have an answer built up in his mind before Kurano had even started talking. ""Your classes have been taken care of. They have been notified you will no longer be attending them, as would be the case either option you chose. They have all been paid in full, and you are no longer in any debt of any kind. We have a full school where your'll be going if you wish to attend, though you likely won't have the time. If you ever complete your duties, then you will be given the option of the world's greatest academies to choose from, all paid for without worries."" the man explained slowly. ""I'll take that as an official 'yes' to joining us. You will be shown to your greatest potential, and taught to go far beyond anyone else's abilities. And if you were wondering, after you have finished with us, we won't pester you like those 'loan sharks'. Your'll be severed from our connections completely once the process is complete... but that completion time depends on how well you can train up your powers.""

The man then turned to Minami after she had asked about 'friends', which was a reasonable question at her age. ""Of course you will have friends! There are plenty of other kids your age. My own child happens to work with us as well, and I'm sure your'll run into her quiet often. She'd be quiet glad to be friends with you."" the man smiled at her. He then listened to Kristof, who appeared to give the hardest dilemma for the mysterious employer. ""Your concerns are valid, I admit, but she will be far safer with us. These are troubled times, and with the proper training, will be capable of protecting herself from the dangers ahead. Plus, as I said to all of you, you have no other choice. It's either us, or them. In most of your cases it's jail. For her, it's her own family... but, I doubt she want's that as much as any of you want to see prison."" the man finished.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Mr. Labcoat}</span>
The labcoated man walked over to the beast, seeming to have found it already. He pulled out some device from a bag he had with him, the device appearing to be some sort of high-tech glasses. He put them on his face, and viewed the monster. ""Oh, this one is still breathing! We've never captured a live one before."" he said, eyeing the glowing stuff within the monster specifically. ""In fact... all we've come across were much smaller than this beast here, and all seemingly turn to dust after they die! If we could get him downstairs-"" the doctor went on... before the stench the monster gave off just before the portal before came back. The monster vibrated for a few seconds, before disappearing into a hole that looked like the one it had attempted to create before, but this one was much faster, and closed almost instantly. The doctor fell back, dropping his glasses-device, and losing them.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Mystery Labcoat and Mr. Man}</span>
""I knew we should have brought in the others! They would have been able to help move it down below before he could have escaped!"" the doctor jumped back up, instantly glaring at everyone else, as if they knew the creature was about to escape. ""No matter, it is gone now, what's done is done. Besides, we would never have been able to fit a creature of this size down the elevator. Speaking of which... all of those who wish to join us, should decide to follow me."" the mysterious man then lead the way to the back of the building where the elevators were located. There were a bunch of them, but one in particular was already sitting at the bottom. He entered in the medium-sized elevator, rated to hold five people... but there was enough room for everyone to still squeeze in. The sirens of arriving police were heard outside as police cars started to arrive... and police were getting ready to head into the building. ""It's either now, or never."" the man said, ordering one of his men to hold off pushing the button at the last second. The second an officer would enter the building is when he would push it....</div>"

Kurano wasn't sure whether to smile, or frown, at what the man told him. Though, going far beyond anyone else's abilities sounded enticing enough for him. No more needing to worry about getting mugged was a relief for him as well. The world's greatest schools intrigued him, with options all over. Perhaps he could even go to Tokyo University, the most highly respectable university in all of Japan. Multi-millionaires were birthed from it's gilded halls, and luxurious dorms. Kurano was nearly consumed by his thoughts, pulled out only by the phrase ""all of those who wish to join us, should decide to follow me."" Kurano immediately started to trail behind the man. <span class=""bb-i"">I won't have to fall under my Uncle's shadow once I'm done with all of this. I can finish my schooling, and return home to the country with my parents.</span> He had set his goal, squeezing into the elevator with the man and what he assumed to be a scientist. ""Before anything else,"" Kurano interjected, ""since you're our boss now and you already know our names. What's yours?"" Kurano asked inquisitively, awaiting for the elevator door to be closed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

Minami almost trembled in excitement, hearing that she would once again have friends. Her days of being ignored and scolded, left back in Osaka. She frowned slightly when the big man she now learned as kristof objected her coming along, Minami's twin tails hair style drooping a bit to make her look pitiful. Listening to what the secret man had to say, she also tried to convince Kristof. ""You can protect me if anything goes wrong Kristof,"" she paused, making sure that she pronounced his name right. ""all you have to do is squish 'em like you just did. Until I'm big and strong, just like you."" Minami smiled, turning her attention to the guy in the labcoat. 

The coat guy seemed invested at looking at, something, from her perspective. Then, screaming like a crazy person after his glasses dropped. Minami didn't exactly have a good impression of the coat guy, but she decided on one word to perfectly describe him. <span class=""bb-i"">Weird.</span> When told, Minami followed the secret agent man to his his secret elevator. She slipped in the doors, and made a comment looking around her. ""Ooh, I think I saw this in a movie once. But, it had giant monsters destroying the city,"" she added coyly, hoping no giant things were going to crush them as they went down or up.</div>"
4384,Fourth Dimension,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-13 02:26:00,Unraveller,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">At last, the horrid stench had finally began to dissipate. However Kristof had not realized that this was a seemingly bad thing. The creature had made its escape, and with it the pursuit of knowledge had evaded these mysterious figures for now. His gesture of greeting, a strong handshake, had been unfounded with this leader or sorts. Disappointed that the respect he had given was not reciprocated Kristof turned away from the man.

The strongman had set his sights upon the young orange haired girl and laughed heartily at her slight mispronunciation, after he had heard Minami's piece he spoke in a rather gentle tone, ""If it is you're wish, little one, then I have no choice but to go along with and protect you. And I shall help you along the journey, to become as strong as I."" The large man had smiled quite warmly, it seemed that he had a liking for young folk, the innocence that they carry.

Being the last one to the rather cramped elevator, Kristof was forced to attempt to squeeze his bulky body within, ""Excuse me, Pardon me, Very sorry."" Finally the whole of them had been fitted within. The young thieving woman who had chatted with him earlier. A policeman almost as strongly featured as he. A college boy who had a bright future ahead. The young girl whom he swore to protect. And who could forget the doctor who was frightened by Kristof. Finally these mystery people, with a sigh the strongman spoke as the elevator doors slid shut, ""Hope that this is the right decision friends. Our lives may become much more complex from here.""</div>"

The boss man smiled at Kurano as he asked his name. ""We just call him 'Mr. Boss' most of the time."" the labcoat guy said. The guy in the labcoat turned to look at the doctor, seeing him trying to hide from the big strongman. One of the guards had grabbed his arm and forced him in after he had nodded to join them... but didn't act on it. He didn't fight back, so the guard thought it was okay. The boss man turned to the little girl Minami, holding his previous smile still. ""Let's hope our story has a good ending."" he said.

The doors to the big building opened up, revealing officers with loaded guns entering. They explored a few steps, before the elevator doors closed. The two guards pulled out a drill, and were uncovering the elevator's buttons in the cramped space. They managed to get it off, and push the hidden button, then replaced the cover as the elevator moved down a floor. Once the elevator had moved down a floor, it started to pick up speed, as well as expand out and become bigger. The elevator's panels disappeared out of view, as glass replaced them. The elevator was now a comfortable size, with enough room for the two guards to stand on either side of the boss man without issue or complaints from anyone else. ""Prepare to meet your new home.""

The elevator exited the concrete walls of the elevator shaft, into a new glass shaft, revealing a giant hidden room, probably twenty stories in height alone! The elevator moved quickly downwards, but at a speed slow enough for everyone to take in the sights. Everything was white and clean, there were walkways going past the shaft, all with people walking around, appearing to be busy doing important things. There were rooms with glass, allowing you to see into busy offices. Some people pushed a button, turning the glass into a black carbon material. Other's left their offices, turning out the lights as their offices disappeared into the floor... which was less than a foot thick, as you could see the room descended into nothing below! Once the elevator reached the end, it kept going, removing their view of the giant open room before. ""We're making a stop first. We have to make sure everything checks out first. And I'm sure all of you would like to get some rest for the morning ahead."" the boss man said as the elevator's glass walls turned back into their regular non-transparent selves.

The big elevator stopped at the bottom, opening the now wider doors, and revealing a very empty hallway. Directly exiting, there were open hallways to the left and right, as well as one leading on straight ahead. There were doors leading to other locations, some with elevators, and sometimes just closets. The boss-man lead the way to the left, with his guards on either side of him. The lab-coated man stayed behind, following from the back. ""This way please. We will be entering classified Zelta territory, an area only accessible to yourselves, myself, my inventor here, and other's with powers like yourselves."" the man explained as they traveled through the halls, taking turns here and there. There were very little direction signs, but he appeared to know the place like the back of his hand. ""You may never exit the area without an escort however. Either by myself, or a designated escort."" the man said, finally turning one last time and stopping before some clean-looking blastdoors. He raised a finger and swirled it in the air, making the doors open. There appeared to be no cameras anywhere. There was a sign posted next to the doors on the wall, labeled ""Three Dimensions Only Beyond This Point.""

The boss man lead everyone in, leaving his guards outside the door. There was another set of blast doors on the other side that were closed. ""Are you not joining us?"" the boss-man asked the scientist as he stood with the guards. ""No no, I have work I need to get done."" he said, glaring at the new recruits. He quickly turned on his heel as the doors closed, and the guards followed him out of sight. ""You might feel a sense of being 'deprived' of something beyond this point. To prevent the monsters from appearing in this section of the building, we have come up with a technology that prevents the fourth dimension from existing in this area. You won't have any of your enhanced senses in this area, except in designated areas, such as the training rooms."" the man said. The doors finished closing and lights turned on overhead. Nothing appeared to happen... except for everyone's control over the Fourth Dimension appeared to drain away from them. The doors opened, to reveal a smaller room.

The next room appeared to be a sort of 'locker room', with benches, tables with sets of clothing on them, and various doors leading elsewhere. There was one door on the right side of the room, leading onward into the facility, while the left side of the building were the changing rooms. ""Don't worry, none of you have to change if you don't want to. This is only for those who are going into the training rooms, if they wish not to damage their own clothing."" the boss-man explained. There already appeared to be a few people in the room, some with outside clothing, others with the clean, slick, whitish-blueish clothing provided. ""Feel free to explore. This sector is labeled with directions. Simply walk up to a sign, and it will show you where you want to go. They only show you where you want to go, everyone else will see where they want to go, so there is no problems with privacy there. All cameras in this section are also clearly visible. There are none in this room, for example. But, once you exit out into the hallways to everywhere else, you will see them scattered throughout the facility. There are none in the bathrooms, none in your rooms, and none in the sitting rooms. But don't think you can get away with anything just because there aren't any cameras. Your rooms are regularly checked while you are out training. If you have any questions, just ask your fellow trainees.""</div>"

Kurano stood awkwardly in the elevator with his arms and shoulders folded in. He stared about the room, wondering when the tight space would lead into a room. Within mere seconds, it seemed that the elevator folded out, and provided more room for everyone inside. Kurano tugged at his clothes, making sure none of them were badly wrinkled. Kurano wasn't exactly sure if he would be comfortable with living underground, but he didn't have much say in that. He stood silently, watching as offices moved by. Whatever organization this was, it certainly had to have been around since the advent of fourth dimensional technology. Once the elevator reached the bottom, Kurano silently followed 'Mr. Boss' down the sleek corridors, feeling a cold hand grab his own.
 It was that child again, Shiroka, latching onto him. She didn't look frightened to Kurano, it must have been a simple instinct to her. <span class=""bb-i"">How is a child like this supposed to learn how to fight? Seeing as that creature could rip through officers like paper, she would be a mere shred of cloth to one of them.</span> Without a complaint however, Kurano shifted his attention to the boss, as he explained the layout and properties of the area. Kurano's hearing quickly dulled, prompting him to pull out his earplugs. <span class=""bb-i"">So this is what it feels like to have no power. It's so much more calm, and not as focused.</span> Kurano pondered the feeling, wondering what the others might have been experiencing. 

The rest of the tour felt very standard, though when the boss spoke of cameras, Kurano didn't exactly trust him. They were essentially prisoners now after all, and prisons generally have cameras in the cells. Kurano was feeling excited to explore however, and with luck he could have a few of his things inside of his new room. ""Are there specific times for training, or are we at liberty of using the room whenever we want? Oh, and, how many others are here?"" Kurano asked questionably, remembering the few he saw in the training room.

<span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span>

Minami was awestruck at the complexity of the underground fortress. It felt so space-age to her, like she was in one of her father's science-fiction movies. Minami grabbed on to the person closest to her, not even looking at who it could be. She was far too interested in whatever the boss was saying to care. Once they had walked into the Zelta area, something washed over her. She couldn't smell anything. Minami almost panicked before the boss explained what was happening. She almost blurted out the words 'will they come back?' when told that her power was dampened. Though, she held it at the tip of her tongue. 

Minami looked with curiosity at the people training when they walked by. It looked like martial arts to her, but it could have been almost anything else. She looked at her free hand, and imagined punching right through a wall. Minami smiled and giggled just a bit. Once they stopped at the end of the boss's tour, Minami asked her own simple and innocent question after the man she was holding on to. ""Where are the friends at?"" She said, remembering what the boss had told her earlier.</div>"

The feeling of defeat. The itching pain that looms in the back of your mind, that you have failed. The honor lost, after having promised your success. That was what the monster was feeling after it's defeat from the untrained warriors who had so easily defeated it after it's years of training. They mocked it, sat on it, and examined it's very being... as if he were already dead. It felt ashamed, violated, and worthless. It had failed it's mission after so many years of training, after completing various trials, and finally receiving permission from the overlords.

<span class=""bb-i"">The overlords.</span> the monster thought to itself... <span class=""bb-i"">What will they think of me, giving up like I am? No! I must push on! I must retreat, and prove I can become stronger, and prove my worth once again!</span> the creature stirred slowly after the battle, until eventually opening up a portal with the last of it's strength, and escaping through it to his own dimension. <span class=""bb-i"">I will be back human-beings, I will prove to be a worthy opponent to you. But fear the day we meet again, as I will not back down as you have let myself live this day.</span>

The creature dropped directly into the main hall of his superiors, flopping onto the ground like a jumbled mess. The portal closed instantly behind him, leaving no trace of it besides the energy residue left behind. ""So... you have returned. And in what poor condition. Have you no succeeded in your task?"" One voice boomed, coming from much higher than the injured monster. ""No... I have failed you. I fought well, but they knew my secret weakness! It's as if they were told!"" he yelled as strongly as he could in his weakened state. He attempted to stand, but the coming boom did not make it any easier...

""Silence! There are no excuses for failure. The form you decided to use for this attack was easily flawed. An enhanced sense of energy, smell, and feel... but a lack for sight and sound left you defenseless. You were nothing but a ravaging attack dog!"" a second voice called from beside the other booming voice that had originally spoken to the fallen hero. ""Forgive me... my lords... I have tried my best...""

""Forgiveness is not of your nature, repetition is. You need not make apologies to us, just be given another chance to prove your worth. You have trained for too long to be tossed away like an insignificant insect."" the nicer of the two voices spoke. ""We will change you, using our own wisdom and knowledge to fill your head with the necessary skills needed for your new form."" the voices spoke in union, before waving a single hand in a spiral. The fallen hero slowly felt himself heal, change shape, and a change in senses. He could start to see, hear, smell... but not in the usual sense he was used to.

""Why are my senses weakened so? I... I am useless in this form!"" he called out. He was much smaller than before, he could feel it... he knew what he had been transformed into. ""I can't be of any use in this form! What am I to do?"" he questioned the masters he sought out so much to please. ""That is very simple. We will give yourself time to adjust to your new form. When you are finished, return to us, and we will send you back with your new mission. But for now, get some rest."" the two voices then dismissed the hero, watching as he stumbled across the floor, making his way through the complicated structure of his lords. <span class=""bb-i"">This will be interesting to watch</span>.</div>"

Squeezing his nose shut as the group descended, such a place they had entered, but he felt no wonderment. Kristof is not the tupe of man meant to be confined, and through all the openness and hospitality shown, he shared young Kurano's sentiments. What would become of them now? Their hopes, their dreams? While Kristof's didn't exactly have many aspirations at this point, how would they achieve anything here?<br/><br/>Glad to be rid of the overwhelming stench that perforated this stark environment, Kristof listened intently as the group broke off and simply Mister Boss and the other people of fourth dimensional aptitude were shepherded out of the, ""de-pressurizing"" looking room. Now they had entered an area that gave a vibe of familiarity, lockers and benches abound. <br/><br/>Gazing around he could see the faces of apprehension apparent on the other,""inmates"" this put the strongman at a bit of an ease, knowing that the few others had felt similarly. Taking every detail in rather stoically, Kristof aimed a jeer directly at Mister Boss,<br/><br/>""Would it kill you to get a paint job? Surely you have many people with enhanced sight, I can't imagine how they feel about this dreary place."" Without waiting for a response, the bulky man strided directly for the nearest sign and spoke again, <br/><br/>""I am hungry, show me where the food is!"" Letting off a hearty chuckle, it was wanting to eat that got him into this mess, something that he was completely interrupted from earlier this day.</div>"

She had just gotten to the facility and gotten past security, who had directed her here. The laboratory looked like a beehive almost, with researchers dashing back and forth carrying fancy-looking equipment. Voices sounded all around. Apparently something big had just happened, though Audrey had not been able to discern much about what that something was. She stepped out into the room, not sure exactly where or who she was looking for.<br/><br/>""Um excuse me,"" Audrey said, managing to catch the attention of a passing researcher. ""I'm looking for Dr. Fumio Fukui, is he here?"" The scientist pointed to a room off to the side then ran off without saying anything else. <span class=""bb-i"">Whatever just happened must have been bad,</span> she thought, noting how serious everyone was. She hurried over to the other room and saw a man looking through a bunch of papers on a table. ""Dr. Fukui?"" She asked the man. ""I'm Audrey Moure, your new research assistant.""</div>"

I will introduce you to my daughter in the morning."" he said, having crouched down to her level. He stood up and looked at Kurano, ""As for your earlier question, Fukui will send you all your scheduled times. There will be separate times, coordinated times, and you may also practice anytime the training rooms are open and not scheduled. As for how many others... I, don't remember. Your'll have to ask Fukui that in the morning, he usually keeps track of that information.""<br/><br/>&lt;Kristof Group, Bossman Group, Naoto Group, Kassy Group, Sign Group&gt;:<br/>Mr. Bossman simply smiled after you had mentioned the serious lack of any color. ""Actually, I find it quiet peaceful. Usually all the colors, and shapes... they get to be just too much for me to take."" Naoto said after you walked off to the nearby sign, and started talking to it. The map of the sector you were in appeared, then a little red dot appeared in a room on the map, similar to the one you arein. The map zoomed in, centering just so you could see your current location, and the path to the lunchroom. A route was highlighted as a yellow line appeared from beneath the red dot, following the corridors to the lunch room, lighting up the path as it spend along, while the rest of the hallways darkened to make sure you didn't confuse which ones to take.<br/><br/>The sign then made a high-pitched, but one not of annoyance, before speaking. ""If you enter through the door to the left, you will reach a three-way intersection. Go straight. If you continue straight, you will reach a three-way intersection. Turn right. If you continue straight, you will reach a three-way intersection. Turn right. Continue straight, until the path bends to the right. Continue straight. Within ten meters, and seventy eight centimeters, you will continue straight through the doors. After you enter through the doors, you will be in the lunchroom."" the sign said in a semi-human-like voice. It beeped again, ""Refer to another sign if you get lost.""<br/><br/>""Um... think the signs give you enough information?"" Naoto asked the Bossman while he folded his arms. ""Haha! Yes, they do need an upgrade. It is useful for when you are traveling through the mine-field room though."" Bossman said with a chuckle, walking up to Naoto and patting him on the shoulder. ""The- wait, what field room?"" Kassy said, her eyes widening in fear. Bossman laughed again, before turning back around to Kristof and walking up to him. ""My office is at the end of this hallway, if you need any help."" he said, stepping to your left and letting the door open on it's own in front of him. ""Though I'm sure any of the other people in the facility would be glad to help you out. Be sure to get yourselves some sleep tonight, I'm sure it's pretty late and you're all tired."" he said, before waving everyone off and walking out the door, and down the hall to his office.<br/><br/>&lt;Audrey&gt;:<br/>The man behind the table, shifting through all the papers, looked up and saw you enter through the room. ""Wait, assistant?"" he said with a thick, angry Japanese accent. Though not directly angry at you, just general anger at life. He appeared to be the same height as you, which from seeing the other people in the country, you realize he is quiet shorter than the average man. ""Oh! Assistant! Great! Take care of these, I've got other stuff I need to do."" he said, gathering the papers up together, walking over to you, and shoving them into your hands whether you wanted them or not. ""Come on, I've got other stuff to do. Follow."" he said, brushing past you quickly, back in the direction you had came from.<br/><br/>""Ahh... uhh... ahh!"" he muttered to himself, turning left, then right, looking for some indication as to where you two were at the moment. He saw a big 'X-2' on some wall, and nodded to himself, heading off hurried in the direction of the X-2. He walked past it, through a door, and continued onward until he reached a small elevator. He motioned with his hands for you to jump aboard, then he held his hand up to a hand-scanner before pushing a button labeled 'Z'. As the elevator started to move, he turned his head to you, and eyed the papers in your hand. He frowned heavily, furrowing his brows. ""Are you going to go through that, or do I have to replace you already?"" he asked, before shaking his head and exiting through the door as it opened up.<br/><br/>The room you were in now, was obviously a private office. There was a desk off to the left, with all sorts of paperwork, a computer, and a little sign labeled 'Dr. Fukui'. Off to the right was glass, as well as two glass doors centered, that opened both outwards and inwards. The room outside had a closet off to the right, and a big table in the center with all sorts of gidgets and gadgets of mostly unknown capabilities. Past the table, centered in the room, was even more glass, and bigger sliding glass doors centered. On the other side was a sitting room, with chairs, and side tables, and littered with pictures of Dr. Fukui all over the walls. Beyond the room were big sliding doors, and windows, leading out to the main hallway. Back into the room with the table with gadgets, there is a another room over to the left, with glass separating the two rooms, but an opening in the middle where doors might be. There was a little dummy man, just sitting all alone near the back of the small room. To the left of that room, was a small area with shelves that folded into the wall. Currently, said shelves were folded in, so their contents were unknown.<br/><br/>Mr. Fukui was over by his desk, leaning over his chair and reaching over to the light-keyboard built into the desk. He was typing something into it, before smacking the enter key and straightening himself again. He looked over at you, and readjusted his glasses. ""Right. You're Audrey Moure. I thought I sent a request for an assistant to Branton last month. What took him so long? Ahh, that wretched old man, always putting his hobbies before work. <span class=""bb-i"">My</span> work!""he growled angrily, almost as if he weren't talking to you. ""Don't you agree?"" he said, not knowing whether or not you had met the boss already, which you probably hadn't as he was busy with other matters for the last few hours.</div>"

Not only did he have his heavy read and white armor on, he also had his weapons on his back, medical gear, and extra weights placed on his arms legs and torso. He thought that it was best to train like this so that he could fight without any of his heavy armor or gear ever becoming a burden to him whenever he would be on a mission or an emergency. That is, IF there was ever a mission or an emergency. To be honest, ever since he arrived at this facility, it seems like all he has done it train, which he has. However, by now, he does this mostly for his own entertainment and to keep in shape. After his past and what he blames himself for causing, he is normally fairly content with staying in the third dimension zone. Every now and again however, he does feel the urge to have some sort of release, and that's when he comes to destroy a few punching bags.<br/><br/> Garsin landed one final punch that buried into the bag and ripped it off the chain, slamming it into the ground. After withdrawing his hand from the bag, he waved to someone he was training next to saying he'd see them later. He opened the door and stooped a little to get through the doorway and then headed to the changing room to get something from his locker before heading back to his living quarters where he changed instead.<br/><br/>Garsin saw a large group of people enter the facility being led by Mr. Boss, whom he regularly referred to as ""Bossman"". Since Bossman was busy talking at the time, he grabbed his pipe, tobacco, and matches from the locker and stored them in his medical pouch. When Mr.Boss was finished with his little tour, he went to grab his attention. ""Hey Bossman, you found quite a bit of people this time. Mind if I have a word with you later? If you aren't too busy,"" he hastily added.</div>"

She hurried after him, walking as quickly as she could to keep up with the man. Soon they were heading to the Z-floor in the elevator. ""Yes, sorry sir, right on it,"" Audrey chirped back at the scientist's comment and started shifting through the papers, though she wasn't exactly sure what exactly he wanted her to find out from them. <span class=""bb-i"">He certainly seems a bit eccentric,</span> she thought to herself. Definitely not what she was expecting.<br/><br/>When the elevator doors opened up to reveal the office, Audrey's eyes grew wide when she saw all of the technology in it. There was so much, she couldn't even begin to imagine what they all did. Audrey recognized a few things similar to what she used in college, but the rest was unknown to her. This was truly an impressive research facility. She followed Dr. Fukui into the room, pausing when he adressed her again ""Oh yes sir,"" she said, though she wasn't entirely sure who he was talking about. It would probably be best just to agree with him though. ""Your research is of the utmost importance.""<br/><br/>Audrey returned to her task of going through the papers not wanting her new boss to find her useless. She paused though when she saw the next page. ""Damage reports,"" she murmured, flipping to the next page and adjusting her glasses. ""Energy readings."" The page after that showed a sketch of some sort of creature. The lines of various colors and angles showed her that it was of the 4th dimension. She gasped slightly as she realized what this meant. ""Sir, are these reports of an attack?"" Audrey had heard rumors about monsters appearing in the normal world from the other dimension, but had dismissed them as merely that. Rumors. Could there really be living creatures from the fourth dimension? And why would they be attacking if there were?</div>"

Preoccupied with his tangential thoughts, Kristof had all but ignored the directions he was given, ""In one ear and out the other"". Becoming lucid in the middle of a stark white corridor, appearing completely abandoned. Surely he could figure it out, what did the sign say? Go straight? <br/><br/>""Right, that's what I'll do, go straight!"" Without paying much heed to the sign's direction Kristof began wandering the halls of sector Zelta. Passing numerous doors and other branching halls, they all appeared the same, was he going in circles or is this place as confusing as it appeared? For what seemed like an age the stocky man had pondered the location of the lunchroom, surely there would be a large, ""LUNCHROOM"" sign in front of the doors, right? Yet no such thing had come to be seen. <br/><br/>Kristof's brow began to furrow as he grew rather frustrated, with a resolute thought he finally decided to open doors at random. With renewed ambition and rumbling stomach he would find the food that he so desperately needed! One question fluttered through the man's mind as he opened so many small white doors stuck upon the walls of this similarly white hall, ""Why are there so many damned storage rooms?""<br/><br/>At last a large double door at the end of yet another forgettable corridor, this must be it. Kristof could simply smell the food beyond, and with a mighty push the doors opened up to- a larger storage room, darn! Turning his head, another double door sat at the end of a particularly stark hall, now this one <span class=""bb-b"">MUST</span> be it! Ahh, yes even without his fourth dimensional smell Kristof could tell. Very slowly he swiveled opened the two doors, a divine light had blinded the man, twirling his mustache, drool dripping from his mouth - this is truly a lunch room of the gods.   </div>"

""Of course. Meet me in my office in an hour."" he said, before turning around and continuing. One of the new recruits, a very Germanic looking man, who looked to have been plucked off straight from the circus, hurried out of the door in front of you, continuing onward down the hallway, talking to himself as he searched for the glorious lunchroom.<br/><br/>After that, four more people exited the room, stopping in the hallway with you. There appeared to be two girls, and two boys. The eldest of the group, one of the men, appears to be a police officer... or, as you know the truth... a former officer. He appears to not have been relieved of his pistol yet, but that's bound to happen in his sleep. The other, younger male, appeared to be the second oldest... though possibly still younger than the older girl in the group. He appeared to be that of a college student, and probably has never seen any violence in his life. The older of the two girls, the one you can't quiet tell is older than the college kid or not, looked like someone who would not be missed outside the walls of the facility. She appears to be wearing a dark cloak around her and over her head, and avoiding eye contact. The younger girl, the youngest in the group, a mere child, appeared to be hiding behind the college kid. You knew Bossman never held people's age to importance... if you were young, and you had powers, you were able to fight. Some of the younger kids were actually much more powerful than some of the older people at the facility... as long as they didn't freak out during a fight.<br/><br/>[Naoto]<br/>""Well, I'm going to head off and find myself a room. We can just pick any, right?"" Kurano said, then shrugging to himself. Naoto waved as Kurano went off with Minami to find their rooms. Kassy continued to stand behind Naoto, looking around the place and trying not to look at the stranger standing with them. ""Wow, is that what they are going to make us wear?"" Naoto said, looking at the big older man that had just talked to the Bossman moments before. ""Naoto, Tokyo Police."" He said to the man in armor, offering his hand to shake.<br/><br/>&lt;Gambit&gt;:<br/>Dr. Fukui grinned as you agreed with him about his standpoint with Branton... and his research. He nodded with a slight smile, that soon faded away. He then walked out of the little office area of the small lab, into the slightly bigger room with the table filled with gadgets on them. He pushed a button on the side of it, and the table retracted underground, closing up to make the room big and open. After standing there for a few moments, with his hands on his chin, probably having forgotten what he was doing in there, he walked back into the small office room in time to hear your question.<br/><br/>""An attack? Yes yes yes yes..."" he said, waving it off like it was nothing. He continued over to his desk, but this time sitting in his chair as he started to type on the computer again. ""It happened just about an hour ago, upstairs, ground level... during the festival set to celebrate <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> inventions!"" He explained, getting more and more furious as he talked about it, before stopping and trying to calm himself down. ""Well... and my fathers. But that's beside the point. <span class=""bb-i"">These</span> new recruits that just came in... they wrecked everything! Years and years worth of technology, all destroyed in a moment!"" he then continued, his calming technique apparently not working. ""Then! <span class=""bb-i"">Branton</span>-"" he went on, refusing to call him 'sir', ""decided to recruit these <span class=""bb-i"">buffoons</span>. And worse yet! Now it's <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> job to schedule them all into the routine!"" he said, starting to reach his hands out into the air in anger.<br/><br/>He then sighed, looking over at you. ""At least I have you to take care of the menial work."" he said, then eyeing the papers in your hand. He then saw one paper near the bottom of the stack sticking out. It appeared to be a picture of some device... but most of it was covered, you could only see the corner of it. He jumped up, and snatched it out of the stack without disturbing the rest of the papers. ""Not sure how that got in there..."" he muttered to himself before setting it upside down on the desk so you couldn't see it. The part he placed it on retracted downward, storing the paper, then coming back up as if the paper was never there.<br/><br/>""No what, I'll just take care of this stack of papers for now. I wasn't expecting you to be here... and there's... classified information in there. Why don't you just, go explore the facility a little bit? Your'll mostly be working here in sector Zelta, so it's best if you get the layout memorized so you don't get yourself lost."" he said to you reaching for the papers and taking them out of your hands. ""Exit's right through that door. If you're used to any sort of Fourth Dimensional powers... be aware it will be like hitting a brick wall going through it. For the Fourth Dimension, I mean. I've kept this office with Fourth Dimensional Powers, much like the training areas, to help better test my projects. The rest is proofed of the Fourth Dimension, to prevent holes the Fourth Dimensional creatures to enter through. Though we have never seen them this far down before... it's smart to be safe."" he said, then walking over to his chair and setting the paper stack down. ""Go go, explore. It's late too... I'm not sure why we'll all up at his hour of the night. But Branton doesn't like to... nevermind, I lost my train of thought."" he said, waving you off and turning back to his computer after he sat back down.</div>"

He turned to the others as they walked in and smiled when Naoto, who came just below his chest in height, mentioned the armor and introduced himself. ""Hah, no, not unless you request it anyway,"" Garsin held out his arm and shook hands with the officer, ""Garsin, retired Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. Pleasure to meet you."" He smile then faded a little after glancing at the girl hiding behind him. He was thinking about his own circumstances when he first arrived here. At least for him, he didn't have much to look forward to. These unfortunate people seemed to be torn away from their lives. He wanted to ask what happened, why there were so many new people here at once, but he didn't want to bring up whatever possibly horrific turn of events just occurred with them. ""I've been here for a little over a year. There's not much to do, but the food is top notch and the lodging is quite comfortable. If you want to know anything, don't hesitate to ask.""</div>"

Actual creatures, and worse, they were attacking the regular world. Why now, all of a sudden? And why hadn't she heard about them with certainty before? And what was that paper Dr.Fukui snatched from her? The whole situation seemed funny. Though the whole day so far had been weird. Maybe she just needed to get out and clear her head a bit. Audrey strode over to the door that Fukui indicated, opened it, and stepped out into the hallway.<br/><br/>It was indeed like hitting a wall. Audrey's vision shifted instantly as the 4th dimension faded. She held her arm up in front of her. <span class=""bb-i"">This is so strange,</span> she thought to herself. <span class=""bb-i"">I see the same way I did before the procedure.</span> Audrey took off her glasses. She had invented them a few years to help her see amidst the chaos of the 4th dimension, though she never managed to perfect them. But here she had no need of them at all. She made a mental note to herself to figure out what technology they were using to suppress the dimension here.<br/><br/>Audrey wandered aimlessly throughout the halls, having no idea where exactly she should go. After a while she turned a corner and found a group of people talking and introducing themselves. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I should go talk to them,</span> she thought. After all, she wasn't going to find out much of anything in the labs or from wandering any more at this point. She hesitantly walked over to the group, giving a quick wave when she caught one of the people's attention.</div>"

Wouldn't catch me dead in something like that!"" Naoto smiled after the talk about the armor, ""No offense, of course. Just doesn't suit my style... like these ghastly whine gowns everyone's wearing."" he added with a slight shrug. Another woman started walking up too us with a wave. Garsin already replied, while Kassy behind me started to wander off towards the direction of the sleeping quarters. ""Hey wait, where are you going?"" Naoto spun, calling to her as she walked away. ""Just... sleep."" she muttered, but continued walking. Naoto grabbed the back of his head and shrugged it off, turning his attention back to the people he was currently with.<br/><br/>""Hmm, that is interesting Garsin. Think it's a coincidence? What kind of people does this facility '<span class=""bb-i"">hire</span>' anyway? So far I haven't been able to piece it all together quiet well. The only thing the group of us have in common so far was the attack upstairs... I'd call it fate, if I were a religious man."" Naoto asked Garsin, folding his arms and looking up to him as he spoke. Naoto then turned to the woman that had waved just a moment before, ""What's your name? Naoto, Tokyo Police, by the way."" he spoke in Japenese as usual, hoping she would understand him, while offering his hand. ""With all these greetings today, my hand might just come off."" he added in a smile.<br/><br/>[Kassy]<br/>As Kassy walked away from the group, she only glanced back once to see them talking, and no longer paying attention to her. She had already looked at the map and memorized where the rooms where. But, once she got there... she had no idea which one she was supposed to sleep in. She looked at some placards next to the doors, and saw names on them. Eventually she came across one placard that had no name on it. Kassy walked closer to it, until it flashed a bright-blue color. It blinked a few times, getting faster and faster, until it was a solid white-again. Then, her name appeared on the placard in bold black letters. <span class=""bb-i"">Guess... this is my room then....</span> she thought to herself, before entering.</div>"

""Yes, I only got here a couple hours ago. I am Dr. Fukio's new assistant."" She turned to the police officer Naoto and shook his outstretched hand. ""Pleased to meet you, I'm Audrey,"" she replied back with a smile, also in Japanese. She was glad that her college had insisted that science majors learned the language, even though at the time she was annoyed that she would likely never use it. Thankfully she had been wrong.

Naoto said to Bela after shaking her hand and taking a respectful step back. ""As unfortunate as it was..."" he then added, looking around for anyone else that had been there during the attack. It was only him, Audrey, and Garsin. ""Oh, well I guess that just makes me."" he then added after he discovered he had been abandoned by everyone already. ""So, I guess we're all in this boat together then. By the way... good luck with that 'Fukio' person. He wasn't real happy upstairs, and I'm sure he wouldn't be any happier if he caught you talking to those that destroyed his festival or whatever it was."" Naoto then added a nod to Audrey. He turned on his hands to Garsin and added another nod to him. ""Good night."" he said, looking at both of them before turning around and leaving them to go find his own room. ""Uh..."" he then said to himself, before turning and looking at Garsin. ""Where do we stay?""</div>"

Garsin's room was the first one in the men's section. ""Most of these rooms are still open, so the first one to claim it gets it,"" he said, jerking a thumb at the other rooms. ""I'm gonna get changed, I'll be headed to get some food here in a moment. Gotta get there early if you want it fresh."" When Garsin opened his door, the smell of wood spilled into the hall. the inside of his room looked like a cozy wood cabin. from what could be seen through the door, there was at least a fireplace, a small bookshelf filled with various books and knik-knacks , and a few comfortable chairs surrounding the fireplace. He closed the door though before a wandering eye could see all the finer details of the house. </div>"

I'll have to be cautious when he is around,"" Audrey replied to Naoto. She yawned as she followed Garsin led them to the barracks. It was getting rather late, and she was quite tired after her long flight and then drive here earlier. She caught a glimpse of the highly decorated interior of his room before Garsin shut the door. <span class=""bb-i"">A wooden cabin underground?</span> she wondered. ""Alright, well goodnight,"" Audrey said to Naoto with a polite bow before heading towards the women's dorms.<br/><br/>After a few minutes she found an empty room. Inside was quite plain, but it had plenty of space for her to reorganize later if she wanted. For now though she just grabbed a book out of her bag, deciding to read before going to bed. But her mind kept wandering back to the attack and the bizzare things that she had learned in the short time she was here. <span class=""bb-i"">This whole place is strange,</span> she thought to herself. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe this will all make more sense in the morning.</span></div>"

He then threw on a dark red button up shirt and rolled the sleeves up just below the elbow, and left the shirt untucked. He then lit the fire and sat back in his chair for a moment. There was a newspaper on the side table next to him between the two chairs and he decided to take a look. Upon flipping it open, he saw just exactly why that large group came in today. ""No wonder the old codger is upset, Audrey has her hands full there."" He lit his pipe as he finished the article of the strange occurrences. He then set the paper down and picked up a tablet that had the news for the people who stayed in this facility. It normally covered the same material but with less mystery about it. While the regular newspaper just saw chaos, the news on the tablet had everything down in detail. Normally, Garsin used to not receive regular newspapers until he requested it. He liked the ability to flip through real paper and see how the news came to the common person. Plus...he did enjoy a cartoon or two. He sat up and set the tablet back on the side table. He knew he wanted to talk to the bossman before, but with this new attack, it seemed like they would have a lot more to discuss.<br/><br/>Garsin shut the door to his room behind him and heard the door automatically lock behind him. He went left down the hall and turned right at the next hallway. He passed the lab hall and stopped at a door on his left marked ""Branton's office"". He then knocked on the door with two quick knocks and waited for the boss's reply.</div>"

Inside the room was Mr. Branton himself, sitting behind the desk, fiddling with his computer. Behind him were big wide open windows, letting the dark moonlight shine in from the outside world. It appeared as if you were at the top of a skyscraper, but you knew better.<br/><br/>""Sorry about the lack of a mess, I decided to clean up the office a little bit."" Branton said too you as he swiveled in his chair, motioning the lack of anything other than his desk and windows inside the massive room. ""Got a little carried away. Now that I think about it, I think actually like it. Tell me Garsin, do you like it, or do you prefer it the old way?"" he said, continuing to swivel in his chair even after he decided to rest his hands. He then stopped, pushing a button on his desk and clearing off the holographic computer and mouse, leaving it spotless except for a single spec of dust. ""So, what brings you here today? Does it happen to relate to what happened upstairs, and with these new recruits?""</div>"

He then actually considered the room for a moment. ""Hmm, a little TOO sterile if you ask me. Maybe needs a bookshelf, a putting green and uh,"" he looked in front of the desk, ""another chair maybe.""<br/><br/>His face then took a more serious form as he started to confirm with the bossman why he was here. ""Yes, actually. First of all, just the sheer number of people coming in was surprising. Most of them weren't like me though, they aren't the people who could just disappear without anyone really noticing. And that creature that attacked, it was different then what we normally have seen before, wasn't it?"" he let the inquiry hang a bit before he got to his main question. ""Are we thinking about deploying soon? And if so, odds are we will be running into members of other factions with their own goals. What would we do then?""</div>"

""Yes, I do realize none of them are like you. In fact, all of them will have a problem disappearing... quiet a big problem actually. They all still have warrants for them. I lied too them about fixing it, I had to. They wouldn't have come, and would have been taken into custody. And we need more people like them. Like you."" he said, waving his arms out towards you as he mentioned you.<br/><br/>""The creature, yes. We've seen a few like that before... but haven't ever truly dealt with them. They usually just appear, sniff around for a little while, then disappear. We know these beasts are strong, and have power beyond our knowledge... but this newest one was the strongest we've seen yet."" he said, his face starting to turn grim with his words. The room changed too, to match his mood. The windows behind him started to darken, until they faded away completely, to reveal the regular wall behind him.<br/><br/>He listened too your last question, and leaned backwards to think about an answer. He seemed to forget about it for a second, when he pulled up his computer through his desk, looked at it, then sent it away again. ""It appears so. There is another 'faction', to use your own word, that I've been talking with recently. They have kept themselves underground for a long time, however. But they plan on surfacing soon, to push us out of the way."" he said, turning away from you to look at his blank wall, turning it back into a window that revealed Waseda University from the perspective of a hidden camera somewhere. ""Deployment is inevitable. How do you feel about getting back into the field? As the team leader of this new group of trainees?"" he asked, turning back around to look at you for your answer, as the window faded away again. He knew your answer already, though.<br/><br/>""Training for the new recruits starts tomorrow, Dr. Fukio has already sent me a schedule for their training tomorrow. It would do them good to have you there to show them the ins and outs.

""I dunno, Bossman, you know how I feel about being a leader,"" he started, but then grinned widely, ""But if it means hitting the field, I'd be glad too."" Its not that he entirely disagreed with being the leader. After all he had more experience out of the group. However, being a leader and the medic can sometimes conflict interests. He pushed the matter to the side though. After their training, he would probably be more confident with it and his team, as well as have someone he could rely on as second in command.</div>"

I'm afraid if you don't stop him, we'll be out of food before the morning! He'll also need his sleep for training tomorrow."" he said, walking around his desk as it retracted into the ground. ""No, stay desk."" he yelled back at the desk, freezing it, before it slowly came back up as if it were a dog hanging it's head with shame.

He saw a man enjoying what seemed to be one of many plates of food in front of him, with a stack of empty plates already forming. The man was quite large and muscular, though not as tall and built as Garsin was. However, with training, his strength would grow as well and unfortunately, his appetite, as Garsin had come to personally know.<br/><br/>He walked up to introduce himself, ""Hey, you must be with that new group that arrived today.

Thank the heavens all of it was for free! Most of the other people in the cafeteria had long backed away from the man. While his fourth dimensional powers of taste and smell had been stripped away in sector Zelta that did not deter him. In fact, it was as if every meal was new to him yet again, not having eaten without his improved taste-buds in quite some time. <br/><br/>Just as he finishes his seventh pork bun a hand is placed upon his shoulder. Swiftly turning about Kristof comes face-to-face with a man of middling years and powerful stature. ""Aha! A man of my own kind!"" the strongman stands up, speaking with his mouth slightly full as well as in broken Japanese, outstretching his hand for a mighty shake, ""Glad to meet you Mister Garsin, you may know me as Kristof Brandt! And that is correct, they've taken us against our will as it were."" With a hearty chuckle Kristof gestures for Garsin to sit down with him and partake in the feast.</div>"

""I'm afraid I've never had the chance to see it in person, however."" He grabbed a plate that he saw had some smothered fried chicken, buttered peas and corn and a biscuit. Garsin's family was from South Carolina, but moved to Japan when he was little because of his father's work. ""Now this is a meal that brings back some memories,"" he said. He then started eating his meal and then responded to how Kristof said they were taken against their will. ""I'm pretty sure you had the option to stay if you would have liked. But I'm also fairly certain that this place is a lot more comfortable and accommodating then that of a jail cell,"" he commented with a short laugh. ""Though I can't say that a jail cell would have been entirely fitting after all of you just saved everybody at that little tech show Fukio throws every year.""<br/><br/>edit: Chatter continued, and more plates of food fell victim to the two men.

Meet at my lab in thirty minutes!"" the barked with a recorded voice of Fukui. Naoto groaned, and tried to roll back in his bed, but the bed quickly bounced him off and retracted into the wall before it could catch him. ""Ooof!"" he bumped into the ground where the bed was. ""Wa- where'd the bed go?"" he asked himself, scratching his head as he looked back at the wall. It appeared as if the bed was never there.<br/><br/>[Kassy]<br/>Kassy opened her eyes, and looked at a clock slowly rising out of a side-table.

""Wakey wakey! Training starts now! Meet at my lab in thirty minutes!"" the voice of Fukui went off. It sounded like a prerecorded message, but who knows. Maybe he likes calling out each of his trainees, giving them a personalized message to greet the wonderful morning. Has the sun risen yet? Maybe not... but who knows? The alarm clock didn't have any sort of time on it.<br/><br/>&lt;Garsin&gt;:<br/>Your alarm clock went off, notifying you it was an early day for training.

And then she could begin researching too.<br/><br/>Grabbing her lab coat off the back off her door as she left, Audrey made her way to the cafeteria room. The cooks were dashing around like the scientists last night. <span class=""bb-i"">Wonder what exactly happened here,</span> Audrey wondered. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe the whole facility is like this?</span> Shrugging, she grabbed a small plate of fruit to take with her to eat on the way to the lab. She didn't want to hang around and risk being late on her first real day here.<br/><br/>Finally reaching the corridor to all the lab rooms, Audrey winced slightly as her 4th Sight came back on as she turned into the laboratory. It looked like she was the first one there out of the new recruits, and there weren't many researchers either.

At last he was able to turn the infernal thing off which slowly dissipated into the stand, just about the same time as his bed. Looking about at the frankly barren room he speaks aloud to himself, ""This place could really use some sprucing up, another time.""<br/><br/>""Well, can't train on an empty stomach!"" He chuckles heartily before wandering off into the stark halls. ""Now which way was the cafeteria?"" In a repeat of events yesterday the muscled man is unable to find his direction, wandering through many similar corridors before finally reaching the cafeteria, plenty of time wasted.<br/><br/>Entering the food room, as he likes to call it, many of the attendants here seem to look on in apprehension, or perhaps fear?

First he placed the ham on the skillet which started to sizzle and pop. Then he place the four eggs over it and started to scramble them. While still unfinished, he added cheese, crushed bacon bits that he had left over from a previous breakfast, salt and pepper. He then continued to mix and scramble the eggs till they were fully cooked but still soft and moist. An overall great breakfast to start the day. Anyone around his door could probably hear and smell him cooking in there.<br/><br/> He then geared up, grabbed a jug of water and a jug of his home-made sweet tea, and walked out his door to go to the training room where he'll meet the group after Dr. Fukui was finished with them.</div>"

Help me set up these weapons for the others."" Dr. Fukui said, carrying various weapons and pieces of armor off of a shelf, and setting them on the retractable table in the center of the room. One he was carrying went off just as he was passing the training room, hitting the dummy set up in the room and knocking it over with a powerful blast. ""Oops, forgot to turn that one off."" he said, setting the things he was carrying on the table and turning the safety on the one gun.<br/><br/>""The other's should be here soon. When they arrive, we'll let them pick out what best suits them."" he said, picking up another weapon. It looked like a baton stick, with a big red button on the bottom. He aimed at the reset dummy in the other room, pushed the button, and smiled as sparks came lashing out at the target. ""Some still need a little work though..."" he said, as he rapidly pushed the button in an attempt to stop it, which it did after a nice ten clicks.<br/><br/>[Kassy]<br/>Kassy walks into the lab just after all the weapons, gadgets, and armor pieces are laid out on the table. She looks around for anyone else, but just walks in. After walking in, her control over the fourth dimensional energy reappeared, much heavier than when they had entered Sector Zelta originally. She step back out to have them return, stepping back in, then out, then in again. ""I don't think I could get used to this."" she mumbled to herself, continuing in again. She looked at Dr. Fukui mumbling to himself past the set of glass and glass doors, inaudible due to the glass between them.</div>"

""They're late."" he thought out loud. His jug of sweet tea was already empty and he left his jug of water alone till training started. Even now, he had weights added to his already heave armor. He wasn't sweating though, so he guess that he would have to get some new ones soon. He unclasped the weights and set them down on the floor next to his water and walked out. He was going to go to Fukui's lab to check on their progress when he noticed the man from last night wandering the halls.... with a turkey.<br/><br/>""Kristof,"" he called out. ""You and the others are running late."" He noticed he didn't have any gear on him so he figured that he hadn't even <span class=""bb-i"">been</span> to Fukui's lab yet. ""The lab is this way, you'll need some gear for the day. You may want to finish that before we get there though."" He finished, pointing toward the turkey. Garsin then proceeded to guide him over to Fukui's lab. He held the door for him to enter and then went in himself.<br/><br/>""Mornin', Doc."" he greeted, in his usual way. It seemed like he called most people by a nickname unless he need to formally address them.</div>"

As long as she was careful not to point anything at herself or anyone else in the room everything should be good. At least that was what she hoped. Audrey gently grabbed a couple of the smaller weapons and arranged them on the table.<br/><br/>She looked up upon hearing Fukui's explanation about how the weapons would be used, holding back a slight chuckle upon seeing the glitchy baton stick. Apparently the super high-tech tools had the same problems as any other equipment. Though, she wondered why they had so many weapons here anyways. What were they preparing for? Was this only about the creatures, or was there more to it?<br/><br/>The door to the lab opened at that moment before she could ask Fukui anything about it though, and Audrey looked over to see Garsin and Kristof coming in the room. ""Good morning,"" she said to them as she carried another armful of weapons over to the table. ""Dr. Fukui, what is this training for exactly?"" she asked as she walked by him.</div>"

""Survival,"" he stated simply. ""In order to research these creatures and the 4th dimension, you need something to protect yourself and others around you. This isn't because we 'may' get attacked. It's because we WILL be attacked, have no doubt about it."" He walked over to the table with the gadgets and gear on it and lifted an eyebrow at something he couldn't make heads or tails of. ""It will be killed or be killed out there, and believe me, I'm not interested in the later. I am supposed to start training y'all today but it would seem that a few aren't quite...'early birds' I guess,"" he finished.<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">That'll have to change.</span>,"" he thought to himself.</div>"

""Yes Garsin, that is mostly correct. Not only are we training to fight them, and to protect others, but to learn more about them and improve our research. But, survival does come first, so we must be ready to defeat them whenever they appear."" Fuikui explained, walking over to Audrey and patting her on the shoulder. ""I hope you weren't expecting something else.""<br/><br/>[Naoto]<br/>After cleaning up, Naoto had went off too the lunchroom to get some grub, but it looked like they had already been cleaned out. He grabbed a small sandwich that was already prepared and appeared to have been ready since yesterday. He ate it anyway on his way towards the lab, taking a quick glance at any of the maps he happened to pass by.<br/><br/>""Sorry I'm late, didn't expect that type of awakening. Plus, I got a little lost... those maps are confusing. Is there a reason this place has to be so big?"" Naoto said as he stepped into the room, feeling his sight return to him in a slightly nauseating way. ""Wooah... didn't expect that."" he said. I looked around, and saw Kassy sitting on a bench nearby, Kristof sitting on another bench with a turkey, Garsin standing over in the room just up ahead, and Fukui and Audrey standing in the doorway between the room Naoto, Kassy, and Kristof were in, and the room with the desk littered with weapons and gear.<br/><br/>&lt;Yo, yo yo&gt;:<br/>""Finally. Since we're all here, why don't we get started, shall we? Gather 'round."" he said, waving everyone into the room. ""Leave the turkey there."" he growled at Kristof. He went around to the other side of the table, and looked over at Garsin. ""You remember your first day?"" Fukui asked shortly, looking back at his weapons.<br/><br/>""All of these weapons do different things. Lasers, bullets, sound waves, microwaves... you name it. Some work especially well for others, while some you might just not understand."" he said, picking up a simple blaster off of the table, aiming it at the dummy, and shooting it with a charged pulse of energy. He looked down at a flat electronic interface on the back of the pistol, just where the hammer would be for medieval guns. It showed a bunch of different pictures, diagrams, and options. Fukui just stared at it, until it flipped through too a bigger weapon, and started to shift the gun into a rifle. He aimed it, and shot at the target, taking longer to charge, but helping aim the shot a little better, and sending the bolt off faster than the pistol version. He looked at the control again, shifting it back into it's pistol form, and tossed it over at Naoto who barely caught it. ""Don't shoot anyone with it.""<br/><br/>""Choose to your liking."" he said, lifting a gauntlet up. ""This gauntlet allows you to reach into the fourth dimension, letting you travel short distances in an instance, at the sacrifice of it's rechargeable battery. It only has three charges before it needs to be returned here. And it adds quiet a nice punch before the battery dies out. That feature lasts until it's depleted, not after each jump."" he said, setting it down. ""Might be a good fit for you Kristof... help you destroy some other man's life work."" he said with a slight growl.<br/><br/>Next, he raised three small bladed disks with his hand, and waved Kassy over. ""These are Energy disks. You can use your powers to control them, and lob them however you like."" he said, holding them out in front of him. ""Just concentrate on them, and they'll do the work."" he coached her. He stood back and folded his arms, as she lifted them with her abilities. The rings started to glow a purple-glow in the middle of each ring, before floating around Kassy's head and being launched over Fukui's heair at the dummy rapidly. They stuck in, then pulled out and floated back. ""Watch the hair!""<br/><br/>""Of course, all of these weapons are optional. Choose whatever you think fits best. Test them out, train with them, learn them. If you ever need a new weapon, new armor, or some other gadget you believe will help you, I'm always working on more things."" he said. There were still plenty of other weapons on the table, all with different looking abilities and uses. Any of them could be chosen if those handed out don't suit.</div>"

Especially now that his fourth dimensional smell and taste has returned. Quietly, or as quietly as one can munch away at a turkey leg, Kristof wondered just what in the world was this guy's problem. It is as if the doctor has a perpetual stick up his ass. Groaning discontentedly as he was forced to leave the delicious bird on the bench, he nods to the others in the room. Not really knowing any of them, though he feels quite a bit better about not being the only foreigner here.<br/><br/>He finally speaks up after Fukui's demonstration, ""Mister doctor, I am not exactly the weapon kind of person. And wearing bulky armour like mister Garsin would see me burdened. In my line of work I was needed finesse you see."" After scanning Fukui's almost fed up expression he added, ""But, if it is the opinion of an expert, I will take the recommendation."" looking over the gauntlet he finishes with, ""Though, I am not the best with technology, I will need guidance."" </div>"

He then turned to Garsin, holding a hand up. ""Just wait a moment!"" he yelled out, reaching for some more equipment on the table. ""Your'll need these to communicate on the field, might as well get used to them now."" he said, tossing Garsin an earpiece, then tossing one to each of the others. ""Use this as well."" he said, tossing a small capsule to Garsin. ""Figure out who needs it best, Garsin."" Fukui said to him, before turning to the others. ""It's a special device that's used to close the portals the fourth dimensional beings use to come here. It also reads the portals over time, and after a few minutes will be capable of forcing the monsters back through to their dimension... if they prove to be too much to handle, which they usually are."" he said, before waving everyone off. ""Now off off! Audrey and I will join you soon. Garsin, get everyone set up in the room, fiddle with the weapons a little, and be ready for me when I get in there."" he said, waving them off more, and motioning for Audrey to clean off the table as he started to disappear into his office.</div>"

'A few minutes' is a long time to postpone one of those creatures while they wait for it to send the monster off. In a battle, a lot could happen in a minute's time. He looked over to the others in the room. As it stands, it only seems like twoof the people who showed up yesterday were going to be of use.<br/><br/>""Alright then, lets get over to the training room so I can see what y'all can do. Thanks, Doc. Oh and the weights are starting to feel a little light again, so I may need a new set.""

He was on the floor, and his body seemed to be protesting in pain. <span class=""bb-i"">Am I in a panic room, or an insane asylum?</span> he asked himself, though it seemed he had no straight-jacket on. Kurano stood up, brushing the bits of dust that had collected on his clothes. <br/><br/>The door was directly in front of him, beckoning to be opened. He put his hand to it, and it raised up just as yesterday. The walls of the facility he was in came back, and he could see that he was in fact at the room he chose last night. How the bed up and disappeared was a mystery to him. Not knowing what to do, or why he was so rudely put on the floor, he pulled his watch to his face. It was about time for breakfast it seemed, and so he found one of those signs in the corridors. ""Alright, uh, take me to the... Cafeteria, or dining hall, or whatever it's called."" The machine whirred, and spouted out directions in it's monotonous tone. ""This is what happens when robots run everything, it all becomes so, tiresome."" Kurano sighed, and followed the directions it gave to him. ""A right, a left, a corkscrew here, a loop de loop there,"" he mumbled as he walked, staring at the ground<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span><br/><br/>""Oh, mister! Hey mister!"" Minami's small form called out to the nicely dressed man. He seemed to be just staring at the ground, moving around and talking to himself. He raised his head, and looked at her a bit perplexed. ""Don't know what to do either?"" He asked Minami. ""Um, well, I got a message this morning saying we needed to go to a lab or something, but..."" She paused, not knowing how to admit she got lost. ""Alright then, we can head there together,"" the man answered. Minami grabbed hold of his hand instinctually, and followed him through the halls. <br/><br/>Once they headed closely to the training rooms, Minami could see some of the people they found earlier looking in through a window. ""Maybe we should talk to them,"" she chimed, stopping the man in his tracks. ""Wait, they've all got weapons. Is that what I missed?"" He asked, holding his palm to the door and opening it up. ""Hey, uh, sorry we're late. We both slept in and, um. Sorry,"" he said again, putting his hands behind him. Minami imitated him to her best ability, as they both stood and waited for their potential scolding.</div>"

He crossed his arms as the boy made an appology, followed by a little girl...which...he wasn't expecting but moved on. ""So... the whole bed flipping you out situation..., that didn't do anything for ya, eh?"" He then paced a moment before turning to Naoto.<br/><br/> ""Sorry, but I've had a change of plans,"" he then turned back to Kurano, ""I'm Garsin Folkvar. I'm to be your instructor here and apparently, appointed team lead for now. I would appreciate it if you would show up on time in the future, and from here on I will not tolerate excuses. Looks like you will start, I want your name and what you can do. I also want you to tell me what you can't do, strengths and weaknesses both physically and mentally."" He looked down at the little girl again, unsure if she should even be here or not, but he shrugged it off and stopped his pacing, and stood a few yards in front of the young man with his hands behind his back. He looked down to him, not in a snobbish way, but mostly because of his height. ""Begin.""</div>"

""Er, the bed flipped me?"" he coyly asked, as he looked at the police officer from yesterday. It was then apparently revealed that this man was to be Kuranos 'instructor' during his stay. <span class=""bb-i"">How come I wasn't informed of this? How come I'm never informed of anything? Where are my cigarettes?</span> Kurano was about to panic before this Garsin man stated that he would 'start first,' which almost terrified him. He asked an almost ridiculous amount of questions, as Kurano swallowed the saliva that was building in his mouth. He attempted to regain his composure once the instructor told him to begin. Kurano halfway wanted to make a joke and say, 'is this timed, sir?' but refrained.<br/><br/>Kurano cleared his throat, and stood straight with his arms to his side. ""My name is Kurano Tanaka, sir. I can..."" Kurano paused, unsure of what he could do to benefit a team. Searching desperately in his head. He then thought back to his encounter with the creature, and spoke once more. ""I can think quickly and resourcefully, sir, and I am extremely good at using my ability of sound. I've used it to avoid danger in many instances, and even managed to dodge one of those creatures attacks using it."" <br/><br/>Reluctant to talk about his weaknesses, Kurano cleared his throat once more. ""I don't work very well without a plan, so I'm not good at improv. I also have a tendency to freeze up when making decisions. I'm not very strong, but I'm sure you could tell that just by looking at me. I can't do anything with finesse to save my life, and I'm overall fairly weak."" Kurano was tired of listing failure after failure, he decided to mix in some qualities as well. ""I am excellent at picking out details sir, though mostly legal wise. I can pin-point specific voices or sounds using my hearing ability, and I am a quick learner. I am however, a smoker. I usually smoke five or six cigarettes a day, and usually when I'm under a lot of stress, I can... go a bit crazy."" Kurano chuckled a bit, thinking about all of the times he'd flipped out from a lack of nicotine. ""I've never handled any weapon beyond a knife to make food with, and a metal pipe to chase off a rabid dog. I'm just a student in college, learning to become a lawyer. But, don't underestimate me. I can swindle people, I can smart talk my way out of a terrible situation, and I know how to use my surroundings effectively.""<br/><br/>Kurano let out a deep breath, hoping that he wouldn't be deemed a 'lost cause' right off the bat. No one else there was probably going to fair any better than him, and especially not the little girl that was still clinging onto him. <span class=""bb-i"">Why am I being put through boot camp? I'm pretty sure even prisoners have it easier than this,</span> Kurano thought as he calmed down.</div>"

Not so bad. It's good to voice these things. It brings them to light so other people know how to work with you and lets you know what needs to be worked on. Not everyone is a born fighter, but everyone can learn. You have useful skills, no doubt about it, but the only thing I can't control is your little 'nic fits'. I won't tolerate that so learn to handle yourself in the case you will not have a cigarette. All in all though, you handled yourself well to the immediate pressure of my questions."" He then radioed Fukui now the he had information on the new arrival, ""Hey Doc, I have a late bloomer by the name of Kurano here, would you mind sending some gear for him?"" he then turned back toward Naoto. ""Alright then, I guess it's back to you."" He still had the little girl in the back of his mind though. He couldn't imagine taking a child out there to fight, and to be honest, if it is up to him, he won't. The grotesque battlefield is no place for a child. He'd have to ask the Bossman about it after training.</div>"

With a tiny chuckle the strongman quietly says, ""You have time to collect yourself."" With great gusto the man waded out for all the group to see.<br/><br/>With a few cursory flexes, with help from the gleaming stark lights it is truly obvious that Kristof is a well muscled man. Underneath the rather snug buttoned shirt and suspenders there is much to be shown, though some things cannot readily be seen, such as the man's heart of gold. With a warm smile he spoke directly to Garsin.<br/><br/>""You already know much of me friend, our chat earlier was quite fun. But for those that do now know me, I am Kristof Brandt. Strongman and loving husband."" As he speaks he bows rather theatrically. Rising, he continues in his usual broken accent, "" The question, I feel hard to truly know, there are things you overlook or underlook. As you know we are men of fortitude, and with that comes strength and speed. I am not partial to violence, and never would I think of taking a life. Whether from the loveliest of butterflies to the most dreadful of beasts. Perhaps you see this as weakness, it is a strength to me, a man is much more than their physical strength, you must also hone the heart, the soul.<br/><br/>Adjusting his suspenders he continues, ""But there are weaknesses, I have never been schooled and am not so sharp of mind, perhaps you may call me stupid, I do not know. Never have I been one for orders, I enjoy freedom. I cannot say much for my powers of taste and smell other than the deliciousness of food."" his demeanor becomes more stern, ""Your group must know this, I will defy that which I deem immoral to my code.""<br/><br/>""Of course, I forget my greatest strength.""

Garsin ordered Naoto to share what he had first, so Naoto's first instinct was to pull out his blaster... s... which he did. He aimed them at some targets at the end of the hallway, but had trouble deciding which gun to use, being used to just a singular weapon. He aimed both of his guns down at the targets, held both buttons down slowly, letting them hum up as he slowly pulled the triggers as slowly as he could. Then, Kurano came bursting into the room, giving Naoto a jump, making him shoot the ceiling, which seemed to take the deadly shot like a droplet of water splashing on the ground.<br/><br/>""Dahh! How did you manage to sneak up on us like that?"" Naoto exclaimed.  ""Sorry, but I've had a change of plans,"" Garsin said, deciding it would be best for the others to go first.

I am trained in firearms, I can keep my cool in the heat of battle, I follow directions. I also know every patrol route the officers follow, and how long it takes for them to get to the scene of a crime after it has been reported.""<br/><br/>""Though, I admit, sometimes I have trouble controlling my anger sometimes, but I have learned to use it to my advantage. I also happen to know every police officer in the city personally, so I would be recognized on the spot. I also have been using my powers of sight to follow trails, detect clues, and sometimes even help me depict if someone's lying or not. I wouldn't be ashamed to say someone specialized in that field of lie detecting would be better than myself, however. I've also had a lot of odd jobs, so I might know a thing or two about structural integrity, which I presume would be useful to know, so we don't go taking buildings down like we had nearly done upstairs. I also have two sisters I usually spend a lot of time looking ove-"" Naoto stopped, just realized what he had started saying.<br/><br/>""I had forgotten!"" Naoto said. He looked over at Garsin, and walked up to him. ""Mr. Garsin, sir. Would it be possible for me to bring my two sisters in? We had been struggling hard enough as it was, and with my out of the picture... I'm not sure they could make it on their own. No one's visiting the zoos anymore, and politics doesn't seem to be very in at the moment.... I'm sure they would not survive the week without my income!""<br/><br/>[Kassy]<br/>Kassy stood there, arms folded, looking around the room and barely paying attention as everyone talked about their skills and whatnot. She did, however, catch Naoto mentioning his last name, which sparked Kassy's ears like a loose wire finally working after many years. <span class=""bb-i"">Did he say Taiyo? That's not a common family name... is it? There's no way he could be related.</span> she thought to herself.</div>"

Having a pacifist on a team send to deal with these creatures could be a problem. ""I suppose I'm weak then, because when something chooses that it wants to kill anything it sees, I don't see a problem with killing it to protect those it endangers,"" he replied coldly, partially at Kristof but more at the idea of the forth dimensional creatures. He knew Kristof's strength could come in handy on the field outside of a fight, but him not wanting to fight puts strain on an already small team and possible lives in danger.<br/><br/>Garsin nodded as he thought about Naoto's plea for his family to be here as well. ""Unfortunately, I don't have a say in that. It's up for the Bossman to decide. I'll have to warn you though, there are a lot of people here who miss their family,"" he replied sympathetically. The question made him a bit uncomfortable. It made him think back of his own family. He promptly pulled out his pipe from his medical pouch (of all things) and started preparing it.<br/><br/> While stuffing the pipe with tobacco he walked over to the wall to a small control panel. He punched a couple buttons and soon some virtual practice dummies popped up at the other end of the training room, with one closer for Kristof. There was one dummy for each of them. ""Alright,"" Garsin called out to the group while lighting and starting his pipe, ""Today, I just want you to get used to your gear. We should have a small job to do here soon so I want y'all practicing while we wait to get word as to what it is. I'll assign team roles after the mission."" He sat down on a bench next to the door and started taking off the weights connected to his armor. He was careful this time to set them down himself instead of letting them fall and damage the floor. He then radioed Fukui again, ""Hey any word on that gear for Kurano, Doc?""<br/></div>"

She knew that the big guy was supposed to be a boss or leader or something, so she decided to speak to him. ""Um, Mister Garsin sir, what about me? Ask me some questions too!"" Minami started to jump up and down a bit in anticipation before a hand touched her head. It was the guy she was holding onto. ""She's supposed to be a part of our group too,"" Kurano sighed. ""I'm as reluctant as you are Garsin, but that boss guy said she would be doing missions with us."" Kurano looked down at her with a frown, something Minami didn't understand. ""I can fight and stuff too!"" She shouted, then flailing her fists about like she was attacking something. ""Can't deny her eagerness though. She doesn't quite understand what we're up against. If she had the power of sight, she'd probably think twice, though I have no idea what those things look like either,"" Kurano said with a saddened tone. ""Cheer up mister!"" She said, looking up with a smile. ""You're only making it worse,"" Kurano replied, looking back to Garsin. ""If any of us deserve to die the least, it's probably her. Unless there's someone here who runs an orphanage and takes care of the homeless. So promise me you don't send her into anything too risky, leader."" </div>"

""Don't worry, I don't plan on it, even it Branton disagrees,"" He stated giving a small sigh. He didn't think letting her on the battlefield would be a good idea, but maybe there could be some simple work she could do to make her feel like she was contributing.

However, it seems like the Doc isn't responding or hasn't completely set the radios yet."" Garsin grumbled a little as he walked to a locker, oddly, the only one in the room, and put a hand on a panel next to it. A heavy 'clunk' could be heard as the locking mechanism released and the door slowly opened.<br/><br/>""I've been here a while, so I had to keep myself entertained somehow,"" he said as a large rack of weapons started to roll out of the locker. He looked back and forth between Kurano and individual weapons for a few minutes, pacing beside the long rack as he thought about which might suit him.<br/><br/>""Ah, here we are.... no, never-mind,"" he said as he picked up a large double sided ax and set it back on the rack. ""Might break you before the first swing."" he then saw something that he immediately saw as a perfect match, but in that same moment, it made him a little sick. He pulled out two very large revolvers that were in a leather, double, back holster.<br/> (similar style to this but fit for the revolvers:)<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""My Hider"" type=""button"">My Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.bigcountrytradingpost.com/BlackHillsLeather/images/bh01.jpg""/></div></div><br/> ""This is a pair of my favorite pistols. I've owned them since I was about your age. On the belt there, there are extra rounds, and extra grenades, for the under-mounted 30mm launcher. And don't worry the rounds not having effect. The ammunition it uses are made here and should be able to get the job done."" <br/><br/>He then walked a little father down and pulled a sword that was in a sheath and unsheathed it to inspect it. ""Take this too in case you run out of ammunition."" He sheathed the blade and tossed it to him. ""It was my original gear I had when I arrived here. However, its been updated to be more useful now. If you break them, I'm comin' after you,"" he lightly threatened as he started to push the rack in and close the locker. Whether he was joking or not was frighteningly hard to tell.</div>"

After a few minutes of Garsin seemingly ""sizing"" him up against the weapons, and teasing him with an overly large ax, Kurano felt Minami tug against his pants tighter once she saw it, Garsin pulled out a frightening pair of revolvers. ""I've never held a gun in my life,"" Kurano commented, worried he could accidentally set them off into his foot. The grenades didn't reassure him either. Kurano worriedly watched to see what else the man was going to give him, but let out a sigh when it looked like a sort of multi-purpose sword. ""I'll try my hardest not to break them, unless they're made of something cheap and flimsy,"" Kurano replied.<br/><br/>Kurano took a good look at the sheathe, and the gun holster, not quite sure how to put the latter on. ""I get that the sword goes on like a backpack of sorts, but I don't really understand the guns. Do I need a belt for them?"" He questioned, dangling it around carefully.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Minami Shiroka</span><br/><br/>Minami silently ooh'd and ah'd at the different pointy things she saw in the weapon racks. The bigger things excited her for a strange reason, which caused her to grab on tighter to Kurano. One thing that caught her the most was the ax. It glistened to her more than anything else she saw, and her eyes blew up when she saw them. Almost tempted to reach out and grab it, she restrained herself, knowing that the others would get mad. In her mind she pouted, like a spoiled child who couldn't get what she wanted.</div>"

When you need them, you can just draw them from behind you,"" he demonstrated by acting as if he was drawing the gun and aiming himself. ""It won't be you that breaks them, trust me. if anything, it will be what you are shooting at.""<br/><br/>Garsin showed him how to load and shoot the large revolvers by walking him through it with Garsin using one revolver and Kurano with the other. ""Now, being that you haven't shot before, I have to warn you. To you, this thing is going to kick like hell, so be sure you have a firm grip on it when you shoot, otherwise you are going to drop it or its going to smack you in the face.<br/><br/> ""Alright, I want you to practice hitting this target."" He walked up to a line in the room that marked off where the targets would pop up. He stepped on a panel and on the other side of the long room a target popped up. He then raised the gun and blasted off all six rounds in the target's head. ""And the pièce de résistance."" He popped a small grenade into the lower barrel and switched the fire over to the small launcher with a small safety that was in finger's reach. He then aimed again and fired. There was a 'thoom' sound followed by a loud explosion for when the grenade hit its mark leaving not much left of the virtual target. He then casually turned around and handed the revolver over to Kurano. ""For now, I just want you to practice with one revolver. get to know it like an extension of yourself. be able to work it, load it, and clean it without even looking.""</div>"

He especially made note of keeping a good grip on the gun, and the reloading. As he followed Garsin over to the target, Kurano felt the weight of the gun in his hands and tried to appropriate himself to it. Without notice while Kurano was fiddling with the revolver, Garsin started to shoot off the rounds he had, each one hitting the target somewhere in the head. Kurano looked in awe for a moment before a near deafening explosion came from where the target had once stood. <br/><br/>Kurano politely took his revolver back from Garsin, nodding after being given instruction to only practice with one. Kurano unlocked the cylinder, and slid it out of place, revealing the casings that were still left over from the bullets. Each of them easily slid out, falling onto the floor. Quickly, Kurano opened up the pouch on his side and grabbed one of the speed loaders. Fiddling with it at first, Kurano then managed to line up the bullets with the holes in the cylinder causing the bullets to then slide into the slots. Almost forgetting, he slid the cylinder back into place. <br/><br/>Taking a deep breath, Kurano looked over to the target which re-materialized and took aim. He steadied his breathing, and closed one of his eyes, looking straight down the sights and onto the targets head. Slowly, his finger pulled back on the trigger until his arm shot up, and the bullet whizzed through the air. The recoil was tremendous, Kurano had nearly let go of the revolver. Quickly, he checked the target, which didn't have a single sign of damage. ""What gives?"" He asked. ""I aimed for the things' head,"" he said, checking to see if the gun didn't jam up. Kurano desperately looked to see where the bullet had actually went, until checking the ceiling and seeing that the bullet had gone behind the target up on the ceiling. ""I guess I can't really handle this gun too well. I'll aim lower next time,"" he said while scratching the back of his head.</div>"

Lowering the revolver, he could see that he made a direct hit to the left side of the target's face. Containing himself, Kurano looked to Garsin for a brief moment before returning to fire at the target.<br/><br/>Soon, the remaining 4 rounds made their way into the target, as Kurano started to reload them once again, he remembered about the grenade launcher. Slightly hesitant, he pulled one of the grenades out of the pouch and stuck it into the lower barrel on the revolver, then switching the firing mode to the grenade launcher. Aiming directly towards the target again, Kurano squeezed the trigger, and saw as the small round zoomed forward letting loose an explosion that destroyed the target. Kurano smiled a bit, not that he wanted to kill things, but merely from learning a new skill.</div>"

He started to make his way to the locker again. ""The creatures track you by your power, so you never know when something may occur, even in some of the unprotected areas in this 'research' facility that don't block your powers.""

It took her a moment, but she spotted it. ""This one, this one!"" she said frantically, reaching for the Ax that she was too short to reach. Minami looked to Garsin with begging eyes, and a whimper.

Eventually he stopped, and a hole opened up on the right with a piece of paper coming out of it, he snatched it up quickly as the paper-vator retracted again and closed behind itself. He quickly scanned it, then folded it up and hid it on a pocket on his person before radioing the other's with his own earpiece.<br/><br/>&lt;Garsin&gt;:<br/>""Garsin, come in. Any reports on their progress?"" Fukui asked, waiting for a response. Garsin did not hear this, however, as his earpiece was never turned on by him. ""Garsin, your're not responding."" he spoke again, folding his arms as he waited once more. He pulled off his earpiece and adjusted the volume, but it was already set correctly. ""GARSIN!"" he yelled, but no response still. He sighed, walking to the door to his office, opening the door and waving Audrey in.

Fukui quickly put his earpiece back on, and held his hand up to the glass, tapping two fingers together and pulling away in a diagonal. A screen appeared on his end, where he pushed a button that turned on his mic to transmit into the room. ""Your piece, Garsin.

He nodded, before letting go and enabling his speech back to the room down below.<br/><br/>The lights and siren stopped before Fukui spoke, ""We have an attack at Waseda University. It's rated Class A, and you're the only team already suited up and ready to go."" Fukui said, turning to Audrey at this point. ""I'm going to send you in as well, to gain some important information.

Back in the lab, he grabbed another earpiece from the shelf of items, and handed it to her. He also picked up a cube, touched a button on the side of it which called up a holographic screen, then followed a series of buttons until he found what he was looking for.

A feeling of dread rose in her stomach at actually having to go out and encounter one of these creatures. After he spoke she followed him back to the lab, trying to keep up. Back at the lab she took the earpiece and device. ""Okay,"" she replied, quickly memorizing what she was supposed to do, still unsure of this.

Too bad it's being wasted here,"" Kurano said, looking ready to go.</div>"

I guess they believe learning on the job here."" Naoto sighed after everything. He looked at the young girl suspiciously, suddenly having a change of hearts and wanting to stay suddenly after trying to convince us so much before. <span class=""bb-i"">Garsin was right, though... a girl as young as herself shouldn't be put through this. Heck, if I were that young, I wouldn't want myself put through this. I wouldn't want my sisters put through this.</span><br/><br/>""By the way, sir Garsin. When will we be allowed to speak to our loved ones outside of the facility? What are the restrictions as to what we can tell them? Is this all... covert... or? I personally haven't heard of any of this. I remember a few mates in the office talking about the ruckus you- I mean us... have caused before... but I never really believed it before yesterday."" Naoto asked on his way out the door into the long stretching hallways.<br/><br/>Upon arriving the big blast doors, the first set of doors opened up, revealing the next door behind it, sealed shut and waiting for the current door to close. ""No instructions then?"" Naoto asked allowed. ""First tunnel on the left. It's a little cramped, and still needs repairs like the other tunnels, but a fine bunch of soldiers like yourselves should do fine with it. Oh, and your powers kick in a few feet down the tunnel. Oh, and wait for Audrey."" Dr. Fukui announced over the intercoms.</div>"

Garsin let out a low chuckle as they locked pinkies. ""Don't worry, kid, this isn't my first rodeo.""<br/><br/>He stood back up when Naoto asked him about contacting loved ones. He started shaking his head again, ""Like I told you about them moving here, you would have to take that up with the man in charge. I wouldn't know about any of that."" He then moved to the tunnel an looked back at everyone before entering. ""Alright then, lets go and come.""</div>"

Where am I?</span> the student said in his head. He held his head tightly, his thoughts feeling like fire to himself. Once he came to his senses, he realized what was going on. A giant fourth dimensional monster was attacking the school! And... he could see it. Most people were running in circles, some towards it... the sorry fools. Other's ran away, just to be caught quickly by smaller monsters.<br/><br/>The monster itself was huge. At least twelve feet tall, <span class=""bb-i"">at least</span>. It stood quadrupedal, four bulky stubs to hold it's massive spherical body up above the ground. A smaller sphere for a head sat attached to the front, without a neck to turn it... yet somehow it still managed to look upon the destruction with ease. The back was glowing, revealing a massive hole on the top leading directly into the center of the beast. Five grown men could easily fit side-by-side within it. Smaller versions of itself, but built with thinner spikier legs, and a longer torso. They were also about the size of a small child. Their small size didn't stop them from easily pouncing on the frantic students running around. Often those without the fourth dimensional view of sight could see them flicker into existence, just to disappear and reappear on top of them.<br/><br/>One of the small monsters was coming for him now. <span class=""bb-i"">Stop, wait, wait! Stop! Why are you charging me!?</span> he thought, raising his hands up. The thing lunged, but was shot backwards as a bolt of energy was sent from his hands. The second the impact hit the monster, it was sent on it's back twitching, before dissolving into nothingness. As it died, several others turned to witness the attack, and now prepared themselves for a dangerous opponent. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh no, this... okay, no, I think I understand now.</span> the man thought as he prepared himself. The three charged him, as he charged up his hands, sending bolts at those who got too close. With each one down, more joined.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">&lt;Heros&gt;:</span><br/>As the blast doors started to close, Audrey jumped in just in time before they were all locked in. The two guards had remained outside the doors, so it was now just the team. ""Garsin!"" Dr. Fukui's voice rang in Garsin's ear, before it was repeated over some speakers in the dimension-locked room for everyone to hear. ""As cheesy as this sounds, this is your first mission. Except Garsin. If you make a mistake, you can expect full punishment once you return. As for the <span class=""bb-i"">rest</span> of you, you will receive ten percent less punishment. I usually go as low as twenty, but I don't like you bunch. So don't mess this up!"" his voice yelled through the room.<br/><br/>The room was slowly allowing fourth dimensional powers as he talked, allowing at least some sort of distraction as they waited for the other door to open. ""This is a VIP mission. That means there is someone of particular interest to us in the area. We want the lot of you to bring him or her in to be examined. If he refuses, you have the authority to use force, as long as there is no permanent damage. And no, I don't count broken ribs as permanent damage. Oh yes, and of course there will be the monster to take of too... if you can manage to bring that in for examination. Otherwise, try to minimize damage done to the city. That is all."" he said. The re-dimensionization of the room finished well before he finished, but the doors remained shut until he stopped talked, at which point they slammed open. ""Oh yeah, take the red tunnel. At the end there will be a ladder to climb up. There's a lever at the top, just turn it and climb up from under the phone, and close it after you're all out. It'll auto lock once it's closed.""</div>"

Unlike before, the usual hearty, jovial personality that seemed to make up Garsin was nowhere to be found. In its stead, he had adorned a more serious and dark expression.<br/><br/>""Alright,"" he announced as he addressed the group. ""Since this is a VIP and execution mission I'm going to have to split us up into twos. Naoto and I are the only ones with sight, so naturally, until the rest of you gain that ability, I am making him second in command. Naoto, I want you and Kassy to search the school for the VIP. Just look for someone unusual and attracting the creatures. Once you acquire the VIP, make your way to the roof and give us support until extraction arrives. Take the east side of the building, we will go around the west to keep attention off of you. Kurano, you are with me. We are gonna take down the main threat and secure the area from as many forth dimensional beings until the area is considered safe and extraction comes.""<br/><br/>When they arrived at the destination Garsin raised his hand to the lever and grabbed it and hesitated a moment. He looked back at the other three faces and prayed that he would see them all back at base. ""The little ones should have a hard time concealing themselves. They will be visible every now and again...."" there was a moment of silence before he nodded, ""See you topside.""<br/><br/>He then turned the lever and pushed up out of the tunnel. When he climbed out he pulled the heavy rifle from his back and pulled the end of a bullet belt from the permanently attached box magazine on it. He then popped the top of the gun open as he set the belt in and slapped it shut waiting on Kurano to come up. He then pulled back and released the charging handle, loading the heavy weapon with its massive bullets. </div>"

This is the same Earth you have come to know and love, yes the very same one. There are a few differences that you might not remember... such as the year. It is the year 2068. Here, new technologies have appeared all throughout the world. One of the most interesting, and the most successful, was The Fourth Dimension. In Japan, there was a technology center who was enthralled by the thought of seeing the Fourth Dimension. They then thought there could be more, such as seeing it, smelling it even. With technology rapidly improving, they figured it would only take them a few years to invent a simulation of their dreams. They finished sooner than they expected, and with a much more different technology than they had planned. It was no longer a simulator, but rather, a procedure.<br/><br/>People are now capable of having procedures done to allow them to interact with the Fourth Dimension. Not everyone can interact with all aspects of the Fourth Dimension, each person can only interact with one. Sight. Sound. Smell. Taste. The technology helped with everyday life so well, absolutely everyone in the world had it done. Even poor people! No one decided what they got, but no one cared either. What they got they used, and it worked better than all of their other senses combined!<br/><br/>But, an unseen horror has risen. No one suspected this day would come, but it has. Due to literally everyone in the world messing with the Fourth Dimension, monsters have appeared where the technology was invented, in Tyoko Japan. These monsters are literal Fourth Dimensional Beings. If you can't see the Fourth Dimension, you can't see them. And almost no one can see them. Those who can seem to be their first targets. Then those who can hear them. Then smell. The monster have appeared more and more, and not one has been killed. Japan has tried sending in soldiers to do the work, but not even tanks could stop them.<br/><br/>The only hope for the world are a band of new heros! New heros that can not only see, but also hear, and smell, and <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span> them! These heros appear to be everyday people, but years after their procedures they start to interact with the fourth dimension in more ways than one. Their combined abilities allow them to do things no one else can. Including fight back. It is up to these new found saviors to stop these monsters! Will you help them, or let humanity fall?</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rules</span><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">1.

Yyyyyes! Just remember... why would he be inventing weapons? Keep that in mind! A lot of weapons weren't always invented for the reason of war... but work well for them anyway! If you've watched Big Hero 6 (I actually wanted to make a movie off of it. xD), they turned a bunch of their non-weapon technology into weapons and armor. But, if you want to make a weapon/armor maker dude, that'll be fine too. Inventors are cool!</div>"

Character Name: Honobi Mitsuhide
Character Age: 25
Character Gender: Male  
Appearance: <img src=""http://i57.tinypic.com/2eauuer.jpg""/>
Fourth Dimensional Power: Sight 

Bio and personality: Honobi is a <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">very</span></span> traditional samurai. He is all about respect and honor. He will never underestimate an enemy, no matter how small or foolish they may seem. Honobi wishes for a warrior's death, and shall never flee from a battle if you are capable of fighting, as he see's it as weakness. He would much rather fight to the death, and save his fellow friends, letting those who cannot fight, escape. He will often be the sacrifice in the group when the time comes. Honobi is very mysterious, he finds it hard to trust in others and open up. He <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Never</span></span> parts ways with his weapon, he would rather die then let go of his sword. To him, his sword is everything, it is a part of him he can never let go. Although, this does not mean he has it wielded all the time, the majority of the time, he has it sheathed, only taking it out to defend another or to train. His entire life, he has spent his time in a samurai school, never leaving. He trained to be the best, and he paid the price for it, he became anti social, although, now, he has finally decided to enter the world of strangers.

And yeah. LOVE BIG HERO 6!!!! &lt;3&lt;3&lt;3&lt;3</div>"

Smell and taste's uselessness does give them an advantage though. They aren't as much of a target. You stated yourself in the plot that they will go after sight, energy, sound, smell, and taste, in that order. Anyone with sight is instantly in danger, while those with taste are farthest away from danger. therefore, not only is the strongman tough, but he's safe as well.

Oh, wait, it actually went, sight, hearing, smell, and taste. You didn't include where energy was, but regardless, he is the safest. Along with others who pick smell or taste.</div>"

Fourth Dimensional Power: Sound 

Bio: Roses farther joined the military with his brother the two spent many years serving their country Roses farther became a demolitions expert  while her uncle was a skilled sharp shooter. When Roses mother got sick with cancer her farther left the military to take care of his wife and child he put the he learnt in military to work by getting a job demolishing buildings. Roses uncle retired from military years later he built a cottage in the woods and lives a quite life as a hunter he visits his brother and nice on holidays and birthdays and Rose spends the weekends with him.

Rose inherited her hearing powers from her father, and growing up in a city with her hearing she got a lot of headaches until her father taught her how to focus her hearing and block out unnecessary and other wise unwanted sounds by focusing her hearing on spastic sounds. Rose also took after her father in many other ways. Like her father she could be stubborn and thick headed but she also inherited some of his better traits like his focus and determination and growing she was always a bit of a tom boy growing up and as a result she was always bullied but she never backed down even when fight older boys this led to her getting in many fights, Because of this her farther taught military hand to hand combat but fighting and she got pretty good at, but she soon found out that fighting was not her only interest and her father was not the only one to teach her something. Rose spent every other weekend with her uncle she loved the tranquil and relaxing sound of the woods of the woods. When Rose was 13 he started to take her hunting with him as a way to hone even more. Rose didn't enjoy at fist because she felt a little guilty killing defenceless animals but he explained that it was the natural order of things and that the animals that they hunt have had a much better life then the ones she was use to eating although this explanation did not make her feel any better she decided to give it a try and after she got used to the killing she did start to enjoy it and even started to set traps for her pray. On her 18th birthday her uncle got her a pet dog who she named Spike witch she decided to train it as a blood hound to help her rack her pray she even want as far as to give the dog the Fourth Dimensional treatment Spike ended it getting the power of smell witch was perfect for the purpose she was training him for. From the age of 8 Rose found out she had a talent for music she was able to learn to play any instrument just by playing around with it and what actions make each note. Rose then found out she could copy songs she had herd perfectly a she loved the sounds she could make and by the time she was 13 she could right her own songs. Around this time Rose began to notice her and her farther where not spading as much time together as she would have liked with school, music, and her weekends with her uncle and the fact he worked a lot to pay the bills they where just to busy to spend a lot of quality time together in fact for a little while the only time they would see each other was at meal time and when they trained together. Rose decided to took an interest in her fathers work and although this was mainly a way for her to spend more time with him she found it fascinating just seeing that kind of destructive force being used to employed buildings and the sounds of multiple explosions and the collapsing building. she and herd so much from those explosions after that Rose began taking more of an interest in her fathers work and planed to follow in his footsteps. Rose was not grate in high school this was not because she was stupid far from it she was quite intelligent but she had to many hobbies and interests and did not have much time to study but what she did have was focus and a plan for her future. Rose already knew what career she wanted so when she did have the time to study she neglected any subject that was not necessary for her chosen career. because of this she did very well in maths, science and engineering although with science she focused mainly on chemistry. After high school she attended collage with a good engineering program and continued to focus her filed of study to maths, science and engineering. she has become quite skilled at identifying the structural week points of any building simply by having a look around it.

She's slightly taller than the national Japanese average for her age. (By about 2 inches) But other than that, she's accepted. I feel like we need at least one character who has somewhat of a military background to act as a sort of leader, or at the very least just be as bad-ass as possible.

I don't know if she would make a good leader as she dose not have any friends as her hobbies and interests keep her very busy.

Hehe! By the way, I hate to point this out and be 'that guy', but I've noticed your writing. You seem to write a lot of run-ons, and don't use a lot of commas. You can still RP with us, I'd just like to point out I've noticed that. I'm hoping you will learn through this RP, and pick up some nice writing skills. I actually didn't write nearly as much as you did, and I didn't join as hard of RPs. When I started, I started with tons of one liners, which wasn't really good. I know your'll improve, though I'm sure you're probably from another country even, so that's understandable as well.

Punch her for me. Because I would never be so violent in person, and I might need to have that somewhere in my history saying I've convinced someone to punch someone. Like, if someone tells me ""You're harmless! You haven't done anything!"" ""Uhuh, I've told someone to punch an idiot date."" ""Oh, well you've got the right stuff then!""

I'm delaying.

We actually watch cartoons as homework sometimes. xD Actually, we like our family more than non-homeschoolers, since get to know each other more. Our mom usually always has wacky stories to tell and such. Our dad is always annoying and popping toes. But we know we get more chances than most people, so we use that to our advantage as much as we can. And yes, we do have less opportunity to make friends, but then again we wouldn't want to make friends with all the conservatives that live around us. Plus, an observation I've made recently, is we end up paying more attention to people. When we walk into a store, we remember that one cashier after a single meeting before. Or that one guy that flew into the airport, but hasn't returned since that first day. Since we don't interact with a lot of people, each time we do it's very special, and feels more important to us. To you guys, you probably walk past the same people every day and don't even know their names. xD. Except for that one you always talk to, because they always say their name every time you talk to them. Oh, and I'm on the top 100 list. I'm actually all 100 of those kids. I'm also the nerd group. The DnD group. The football group. The teachers. The principal. So... yeah. Things are different.

Glad to hear your school actually likes us though, ;). Around where we live, people are like ""You idiots. Now your kids will never get the smarts!"". :(</div>"

The ""top 100s"" is what almost everyone calls the richest kids in the school. They have chauffeurs that drive them to school in BMWs, and pretty much step on anyone they want to because they can.

She was looking for food, but saw a chance to snatch something she might be able to use later, so she took it. Doesn't matter to her what it was, just had to be something good if it was sitting there.

She is a goth girl, seeing the worst in everything, cruel, and sometimes evil. She sees no value in animals, she uses them in battle, and nothing more, if they become useless to her, she kills them. She is a convicted murderer, killing several police, animals and innocent. She was placed on the top priority list, although, she kept escaping by using her powers. How did she become like this, you ask? Her parents tortured her, taught her to never trust anyone. They told her that to survive this world, she would have to be mean. Her parents were physically unstable, and it had an impact on her. She became just like her parents, a convicted murderer, a psycho path. She never cared for her parents, why should she? They made her life hell, well, now, she can share those feelings, and turn it into power!</div>"

Though that's mostly because the bios don't really tell me who they are, they really just tell me the gimmick of the character. Which means I'm not really basing my acception off of whether I like the character or not, it's based on if I like the gimmick or not.

 If you could perhaps put more backstory into the why, I'd be more than glad to accept. Why did Toby join the military? Tell me why Tyson loves animals with a little story. Tell me how flemeth got to be that way. 

Without those crucial bits, I'm basing this entirely off of the gimmick that the character imposes, which I hate. Characters must feel like people, or they're just plot device cardboard cut-outs that have no reason other than to be ""the goth kid"" or ""the military brat."" 

Ah, didn't notice the third one was The One's character. I'm willing to accept that, if, like I said, the why is somewhat explained. You can leave it open-ended, but why is a big part that makes characters. Also, if she's purely here to be a chaotic evil character to add more of a balance within the group, insanity is a really boring reason, so as long as she has a reason, we're good to go.</div>"

By the way, I don't know if I want so many battle trained people in the RP. It can make things, well, boring. If everyone's really good at fighting, then that means the monsters have to be that much tougher. That means anyone normal is dead within an instant, because the difficulty had to be so heightened. 

It's boring without added difficulty because we have a bunch of weird people running around with huge guns, swords, trained to fight and survive. But it's also too hard if the balance has to be shifted in favor of giving the weapon users and battle trained a challenge.</div>"

When he wasn't studding he would read science and engineering magazines. When Alex was 9 he started taking apart microwaves, refrigerators, televisions ext just and putting them back to gather to get a better idea of how they worked. When the time he was 10 he started building things like computers and game consoles. When he was 13 he was able to upgrade and reprogram most tech you would find around your basic home the most impressive being cars. When he was 15 he began working on designs for new tech. at 18 his parents had a lab built for him and he started inventing all kinds of things like hover boards and clocking tech. when he was 20 his parents where attacked and killed by 4D monsters ever since then he began working on weapons to fight them now he has finally finished a combat suit that enhances the wearers speed and agility and laser guns that can be set to fire blast of energy stun any living thing for our would but has no effect on 4D monsters, Set to fire out highly focused busts of radiation like microwaves to heat up and set thing on fire, Set to fire live laser beams that can kill most living things in our would witch can injurer 4D monsters and finally they can be set to fire a beam of energy that only harms the 4D monsters and has no effect on anything else. Alex is a lab rat though and though has little experience outside his lab however he plans to attend the Fourth Dimensional 48th Anniversary Convention to show his prototypes knowing they could help military solders fight back against the 4D monsters.

Growing up Alex was always top of his class but he was never arrogant about it or though he was better then anyone else in fact he tended to down play his intelligences by using smaller words instead of using unnecessarily long contemplated words. Alex was very sociable at school joining the chest club and science club. making a number of fiends. but after his parents died he began working a lot more spending every weekend lock in his lab focused on building weapons that could kill the monsters that killed them and only seeing his friends at school.</div>"

I think it will take a bit more in order to kill Kristof, but he certainly isn't in good shape. Imagine such a focused sound wave, sound is more or less vibrations, and at that magnitude from someone who doesn't even know how to use the equipment.

Okay. Name, Toby, Age 25, Male. Has 4d sight. Very calm and serious, extremely helpful. Maniac carrying gun for 'Just in case' moments. Trained in the military, and for some reason still thinks it's okay to carry a gun everywhere he walks.

I'll say not enough information. I believe Ragna said the same thing. Please add more to the bio, as this might be an interesting character. Plus, he doesn't have to carry a sniper around with him. People will be handed out weapons later, as they'll become part of a group that will EVENTUALLY be held above the law, and trained to walk around to fight monsters and such. But before then, they're breaking the law, and already thrown in jail. lol.

Crow, Sight

Bio and Personality: Flemeth has achieved a whole new skill that nobody else has achieved, being able to physically form wings out of pure energy. She is a goth girl, seeing the worst in everything, cruel, and sometimes evil. She sees no value in animals, she uses them in battle, and nothing more, if they become useless to her, she kills them. She is a convicted murderer, killing several police, animals and innocent. She was placed on the top priority list, although, she kept escaping by using her powers. How did she become like this, you ask? Her parents tortured her, taught her to never trust anyone. They told her that to survive this world, she would have to be mean. Her parents were physically unstable, and it had an impact on her. She became just like her parents, a convicted murderer, a psycho path. She never cared for her parents, why should she? They made her life hell, well, now, she can share those feelings, and turn it into power!<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/the-one"">@The One</a></footer></blockquote>

Hmm, interesting. I like the power, though it might be OP. I'm not sure.... You actually wrote somewhat of a bio, which is acceptable. Though, her being as evil as she is might not work very well.

Fourth Dimensional Power: Sight has learnt some of his power but not all. 

Bio: Alex was born into a wealthy home and integrated his abilities from his mother sent to the best privet schools he sowed high a level of intelligence for his age all throughout his life he was growing up he spent most of his time indoors studying. When he wasn't studding he would read science and engineering magazines. When Alex was 9 he started taking apart microwaves, refrigerators, televisions ext just and putting them back to gather to get a better idea of how they worked. When the time he was 10 he started building things like computers and game consoles. When he was 13 he was able to upgrade and reprogram most tech you would find around your basic home the most impressive being cars. When he was 15 he began working on designs for new tech. at 18 his parents had a lab built for him and he started inventing all kinds of things like hover boards and clocking tech. when he was 20 his parents where attacked and killed by 4D monsters ever since then he began working on weapons to fight them now he has finally finished a combat suit that enhances the wearers speed and agility and laser guns that can be set to fire blast of energy stun any living thing for our would but has no effect on 4D monsters, Set to fire out highly focused busts of radiation like microwaves to heat up and set thing on fire, Set to fire live laser beams that can kill most living things in our would witch can injurer 4D monsters and finally they can be set to fire a beam of energy that only harms the 4D monsters and has no effect on anything else. Alex is a lab rat though and though has little experience outside his lab however he plans to attend the Fourth Dimensional 48th Anniversary Convention to show his prototypes knowing they could help military solders fight back against the 4D monsters.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/pharaohatem"">@PharaohAtem</a></footer></blockquote>

This is actually a plot RP, not an arena. I've made these monsters extremely powerful, because I want the battles with them to be rare, and eventful. I've always ended up in RPs where a dragon comes along, and everyone is having this amazing battle with it... then one guy comes along and tosses a booger, and the dragon implodes. It's no fun when you get these crazy people that make absolutely no sense, and when battles don't feel like battles.

well Rose dose no how to use the sound cannon she had an in depth convocation with the owner about although I only showed part of it she has the 4D sound ability and plays a lot of music she intended that sound wave to go though to the other room and temporarily stun her perusers giving her time to deactivate it and retune it. Rose never account for Kristof's speed he would have been to close to the wave and been the fist thing it hit the other would get a splinting headache and be disordered for a while but it would not be as bad as it was for poor Kristof.</div>"

1. Follow the format. Please don't spread everything out so your app looks bigger. It makes things harder to read, and generally messy.
2. No more weapons! If you MUST have a weapon, make a LOGICAL STORY FOR IT. A hunter, may have a hunting weapon. But, can they carry it throughout the streets like madmen? No!
3. Make bios for your characters! I am setting the minimum to two paragraphs, and there must be a PERSONAL STORY for each character!
4. It says BIO, not PERSONALITY. Read the app carefully!
5. If your picture is bigger than a player's avatar, put it in a hider!
6. Put your application in a hider as well please!
7. Do NOT put your character under the Characters section! This is reserved for FULLY ACCEPTED RPers only! You may only have A SINGLE POST under the Characters section to hold all of your apps! If you have so many apps, or such big bios, that they literally physically computerlly can't fit, you may have a second post.</div></div></div>"

Unraveller, the character that shot yours wasn't exactly a normal person. therefore, their sense of a traumatic experience may be incredibly different from your character's. If an insane person did that, I'm pretty sure they would have started laughing while they were running away.</div>"

So long as me and Tek still stand, the RP will be level-headed. I didn't make two brand new characters and plan out arcs for them for nothing.

by the way, if anyone thinks that ""oh man this guy hates me"" I really don't. I really, really, don't. In fact, I find you all fairly enjoyable to talk to. My only problem is the potential that's wasted with the insanity going on. There's such a thing as pacing. The pacing went way too fast, and that resulted in the cluster**** that's going on right now. That's why earlier I said I needed to think, because that's about how fast we were moving. I almost never say that. I'll chalk it up to the anxiety to get straight into the action, but build-up makes that action worth it.</div>"

Does that, or doesn't that include us? Alright, operation C.L.E.A.N.U.P. is underway then.

That could be a bad idea. It would just mean throw up as many ten paragraph bios of the same character with minor differences until you get in. ""Aw man, Ryu didn't get in. Maybe if I make Ryu with flaming eyes, and add an extra paragraph to the bio, I'll get in.""

I'm so glad you're still interested! Yeah, by the way, this is 100% unusual. The other time this happened to an RP I had, I wasn't around for a full week... with 10x more posts, and 10x less people. The RP died horribly, and I never knew what happened while I was gone.

I hope eventually everyone will become casually normal, with very slight weird things happening. Possibly the gauntlets get destroyed, but a weaker prototype version of them are found, and will become replacements. The twins get thrown in jail, or have their arms chopped off. Things will calm down, hopefully soon. I hope we can salvage this RP, rather than demolish it and start over. But, I will start over if that is what it takes, which I don't think so at this point.

Yes, I understand that too.

well the gauntlets would not necessarily need to be destroyed as Rose would not use them on anything other then the 4D monsters expect for this instance where she used them on the other people but that was intended to stun as they where fare away and in another room the wave would have hat to travel a long distance and go though a wall witch is why she amped up the intensity Kristof only ended up in that state because he was fast enough to get closer to Rose while she was calibrating them because he took the brunt of it. 

That being said bare in mind while the focused in one direction it was not focused at one target or in a straight line it was focused in the general direction so it would hit everyone and the explanation of how strong the sound waves where was they would hear a high pitched noise that would sound just like nails on a chalkboard but much louder. Now i you have ever heard what nails on a chalkboard it is a horrible screeching but not all that loud amp up the volume you amp up the frequency as well but even though it was much louder because it started of as something as low level as nails on a chalkboard it would not be all that deadly unless you where very close to it.

However unlike the normal, only Jennifer's hearing has been enhanced, but it extends out of the range of what even a blind person be capable of as she has never needed a walking stick ever in her life, all she has needed was to be mindful of her surrounding and listen. It is simply nature's way of saying sorry for those who are unfortunately tasked to receive such gifts, and it sometimes compensates for a world lost to those who have to bear such gifts by making another for them to experience. However with the advance of technology, this ability to hear has further been expanded to the point of where she is sensitive to sound at random moments and requires the overall volume to be lower so it doesn't hurt her ears. Unlike other people who have this ability, her own prowess with this power extends what people can normally achieve as she has been listening her whole life.

Technology is a blessing in these days, which defies the will of nature as allows ways for people to overcome their flaws that have been etched onto by nature.

It had allowed her to sense the emotions of people around her and effectively allowed her to 'see' another world that was separate from the one that she could hear. Now she is able to see the blobs of colors that walked among the streets that showed what other people were feeling and what they were thinking of doing for the day. Jennifer herself has helped a person however only once stopped themselves from killing themselves, with the use of her other dimensional power to read their mind and her new one to read their emotions. She did feel great about helping them but was doubting that hearing and seeing the emotions as well as thoughts of others was as good as she thought it would be.</div></div>

Well, the point is that it's OP. If it's that powerful, it actually would deal with the monsters like they're nothing, since this weapon seems to hit every single entity within earshot. That in turn, then makes all of our characters extremely weak. We are now left with a few choices: Make the monsters stronger, so your weapon doesn't effect them as much. Problem?

I'm so glad you're still interested! Yeah, by the way, this is 100% unusual. The other time this happened to an RP I had, I wasn't around for a full week... with 10x more posts, and 10x less people. The RP died horribly, and I never knew what happened while I was gone.

I hope eventually everyone will become casually normal, with very slight weird things happening. Possibly the gauntlets get destroyed, but a weaker prototype version of them are found, and will become replacements. The twins get thrown in jail, or have their arms chopped off. Things will calm down, hopefully soon. I hope we can salvage this RP, rather than demolish it and start over.

well the gauntlets would not necessarily need to be destroyed as Rose would not use them on anything other then the 4D monsters expect for this instance where she used them on the other people but that was intended to stun as they where fare away and in another room the wave would have hat to travel a long distance and go though a wall witch is why she amped up the intensity Kristof only ended up in that state because he was fast enough to get closer to Rose while she was calibrating them because he took the brunt of it. 

That being said bare in mind while the focused in one direction it was not focused at one target or in a straight line it was focused in the general direction so it would hit everyone and the explanation of how strong the sound waves where was they would hear a high pitched noise that would sound just like nails on a chalkboard but much louder. Now i you have ever heard what nails on a chalkboard it is a horrible screeching but not all that loud amp up the volume you amp up the frequency as well but even though it was much louder because it started of as something as low level as nails on a chalkboard it would not be all that deadly unless you where very close to it.

The question is, what stops her from doing it again? her morality clearly didn't stop her from doing it once, so she'll likely do it again. It doesn't matter how sane the person is that wields it, because this just means that it will one-shot the monsters then, which is boring AF. It's way too OP on a PvP perspective, and it's still OP in a PvC encounter. A weaker version is absolutely required when this encounter is done with. What if a mentally unstable person just takes it? Everyone's dead then. It's much too OP.</div>"

Well, the point is that it's OP. If it's that powerful, it actually would deal with the monsters like they're nothing, since this weapon seems to hit every single entity within earshot. That in turn, then makes all of our characters extremely weak. We are now left with a few choices: Make the monsters stronger, so your weapon doesn't effect them as much. Problem? Our characters now die instantly. Option two: We buff up all of our characters. Problem? We have to change our character's stories, or hand them other uber weapons.

well thats good point but you are forgetting a few things 1 even though they can hit everything that is a strength and a massive weakness if it was just her fight them she could let lose but if she did that with other people around they die to this would also kill her if she was not careful 

2 they work by producing sound waves controlling their frequency and vibration this way of attacking could already be somewhat ineffective against them for any number of reasons without making them harder for the other to kill and to be honest considering when I explained roughly how they work and said they could be OP and you said it was fine I thought that was the case 

3 even though she can locate them with sound you have mentioned how fast they could move and how hard it could be to keep track of them this would make if very hard to hit them with a highly focused blast of sound that would not hit anyone else

that being said if you still think they are OP I don't mind getting rid of them.</div>"

You imagine it from within a box, and it magically appears. And, if we did keep said gauntlets at the same power, that would mean we'd need to up the difficulty of the beasts, making it so that the normal people have no chance against them. When you add OP weapons, the monsters need to be more powerful. When the monsters are more powerful, people without OP weapons are screwed on the spot. You must take into account that there are people who will not be using your weapon. So you need to make it more balanced so that the beasts need not be impossible for them to kill.

Okay. 1. This can still be used to kill other people, and like I said, if someone takes it, everyone's dead. 

2. You did not explain it in this detail earlier. I assumed organic matter wouldn't be as severely effected as buildings. Because if it can take down buildings and organic matter the same way, nothing stands a chance against it. 

3. You can just shoot literally everywhere while backed up against a wall, and because their jump points are completely random, eventually you would get them.

Number 1:

If Rose drops it. What if these monsters are smart enough to pick it up, and use it? Everyone's dead, instantly. Or at least paralyzed, then killed right after as they keep using it.

Number 2:

Maybe Rose goes to bed, and a monster appears right there. They grab it. Thee end, the whole building is blown away!

Number 3:

Some new bad guy get's a hold of it. Perhaps Rose turns evil... who knows, it's an RP, many different situations can happen. All it takes is one bad guy who doesn't care about it effecting absolutely everyone, and then blam, everyone is injured, or paralyzed, then either dying or about to be dead.


They work right now, because of it is a specifically controlled environment. But, they could... say... collapse after their usage, as they hadn't been fully tested yet. In the end, I think you might need a smaller, but still similar, weapon that could be used. I still plan on outfitting our characters with weapons, and what goes on here (AKA, she can use the weapon now for this upcoming fight, before it falls apart) might influence the designs going on for our characters in the background.</div>"

well that is what she did the sound waves come out of her palm.

Rose quickly put on the gauntlets and pressed a few buttons on the top calibrating them she then raised her left hand and pointed it in the direction of Kristof and the others 

she pointed it in their direction and the sound would have come out in about a 45 degree angle expanding outwards that would hit the hole room that the other are in and as for her morality it would stop her from doing it again she was raised by veterans of the military so she would have a mind set to protect people the mistake she made was not looking how close Kristof had gotten before firing it but that was because two reason one I never conceded he would move that fast and the two it hadn't happened yet.</div>"

Well, if you think about modern weapons, nothing shoots like that except for flamethrowers. And then even those can only hit things directly in front of them, and not from one end to the other end of a building. 45 degrees is a lot. A gun shoots straight, pretty much, and has to be aimed at it's target to hit. If let to spray... EVENTUALLY would have to 'reload' at some point.  An RPG has to hit the target before exploding and causing mass destruction. By then, our enemies would have already moved out of the area, and most likely dodged the attack.</div>"

I do like that you have taken the time to explain her fourth dimensional powers, and there is quite a bit of exposition that gives us an insight on your character.

Okay, yes. That's pretty accurate. But, Kassy and Rose aren't running anymore... are they? IDK. Did they start after Rose slowly handed over the gauntlets? I thought Rose thought it a randomly good idea to drop off the gauntlets, surely making sure the two get caught now considering most people have probably left now, and the cops had free room to simply charge them.

True, the stun machine of death. But, according to The One it doesn't actually stun, it just annoys. So, since they're cops with actual training (To stand around), perhaps they only flinched. Doesn't matter if they get caught though. Muhahaaa...

I thought it produced a flashbang sort of noise. You know, the ringing that can make a soldier in the military go deaf instantly? Nails on a chalkboard aren't particularly annoying as much as it is ear-piercing. So, it technically did stun them because the sound would cause them to have to cover their ears.

yeah the effects would be like a stun grenade sharp piercing flowed by dizziness and disorientation like I said the last night the only explanation for why Kristof was effected like he was was he was right in front of the gauntlets when they fired

If you're not on his top list, and you try to attack him or stand in his way, he will attack, but not use his super special 1-hit-KO ability.

3. Obvious Weapons.
4. Sound(So)
5. Physical Strength.
6. Smell(Sm)/Taste(T)

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Priority.</span>
1. Slade and Blade, since they're both side by side and top priority abilities.

5. Kurano, Mimi, Rose and Kurano are all equal.
6. Kristof.
7. Minami.

Yes. Get the hell out of dodge. Except I forgot to post him going nutso and destroying the entrance. Well, doesn't matter. If you run, it's like a wolf. ""Ooh, run, I chase!""

Only those lower on the list have a chance of really doing any damage to it. Also, what kind of a convention hall only has one entrance?

As fast as he killed off the three cops in one blow, yeah, OP. But really this is an RP, people are meant to interact and not go rushing in headfirst. The point is people have to figure out who he's aiming for, and then step in to save them. Ever wonder why the military never won? Because all they did was ""Ready? Aim... FIRE!"" Our team has to have something special about them, which right now is being able to work together. Plus... there's a little secret I haven't said yet. Our characters have an upper hand over the cops that just blinked from existence. :3

And yeah, people could probably try to run away and leave the RP site... but knowing RPs, everyone wants a piece of the action, and tries to be the hero that one-blows the monster.

But yeah, this monster isn't AS OP as he looks with his 1-hit OPness. He has weaknesses. That are invisible. And will most likely be revealed the second he grabs one of the twins because no one steps in to save them... cus, who wants to save them? xD</div>"

Plot armor? I'm not sure you're thinking what I'm thinking... but what I'm thinking, yes, plot armor. Actually, that works for two countermeasures I have. So yes, and yes, and probably no. But it might also be another yes.

xD. Eventually I'll be able to think of weaker (LOTS WEAKER) monsters, that will have more obvious weaknesses.

Right. Oh, everyone can see/energy/hear/smell/taste (Hmm... 4d toe cheese taste... hmm...) it with their respective abilities. They just most didn't know it was coming until it was too late.

I probably should define some specifics on what each type of character can do to sense it. Okay. Seeing, duh. They can see it plainly and simply, but they can't predict where it's going to end up. Hearing is harder, but they might 'hear' a footstep before it's made. Smelling, perhaps they can actually smell it's reek in a location before it gets there. Taste? Oh god. Why the heck do you have that ability? You seriously need to unlock the next abilities soon :P. Energy... probably a lot like seeing, being able to 'feel' where it is at the moment, and possibly a little future-sight movements.

Is it possible I scared everyone off with the monster? ""Nuh uh, no way hosay. Too OP. You said I was too OP, now you're just nuts. I'm out. PEACE!""</div>"

Oh, I perfectly understand being strong and muscly has nothing to do with intelligence. I actually know musclemen in the circuses usually aren't actually strong... or, don't have to be. I just find it extremely bizarre for me, since I'm not usually the type of person to judge a book by it's cover. That's why I asked The One, or more so pointed out, his whole writing thing. I kind of figured he wasn't stupid or anything like that, probably just from another country, or possibly something else. Turns out I was right then, as he says he has a disability with writing, which is perfectly reasonable. My older brother also has a problem with writing.

At least The One can design characters and hold them pretty well... my older brother would just go nutso and have to take over, not being able to stand me being a GM over him. xD.

People are very interesting. Look at them, make a judgement (Don't EVER say you don't... that's a pure lie if you do, as if you didn't, you'd be a toad. And I'm sure even toads make judgements... ""Human? Giant? Wants to eat me? RUN! PEE ON HIM!""), but don't HOLD it to them. ""Oh, hey, that person talks funny. Maybe he's 'special'. Or maybe he's from another country. Okay, judgement done. Don't hold him to it... maybe he's actually a comedian!"" (That last reference is actually myself. But, I have a speech impediment, not comedian (Thought I wish I was. :3))</div>"

Broad daylight is a term that implies there are people around. Like thieves robbing a bank full of people during the night, it would be considered broad daylight because they're not trying to be sneaky in any way. What I mean is that I used it as a figure of speech, not literally.

Bio: Alex was born into a wealthy home and integrated his abilities from his mother sent to the best privet schools he sowed high a level of intelligence for his age all throughout his life he was growing up he spent most of his time indoors studying. When he wasn't studding he would read science and engineering magazines. When Alex was 9 he started taking apart microwaves, refrigerators, televisions ext just and putting them back to gather to get a better idea of how they worked. When the time he was 10 he started building things like computers and game consoles. When he was 13 he was able to upgrade and reprogram most tech you would find around your basic home the most impressive being cars. When he was 15 he began working on designs for new tech. at 18 his parents had a lab built for him and he started inventing all kinds of things like hover boards and clocking tech. when he was 20 his parents where attacked and killed by 4D monsters ever since then he began working on weapons to fight them now he has finally finished a combat suit that enhances the wearers speed and agility and laser guns that can be set to fire blast of energy stun any living thing for our would but has no effect on 4D monsters, Set to fire out highly focused busts of radiation like microwaves to heat up and set thing on fire, Set to fire live laser beams that can kill most living things in our would witch can injurer 4D monsters and finally they can be set to fire a beam of energy that only harms the 4D monsters and has no effect on anything else. Alex is a lab rat though and though has little experience outside his lab however he plans to attend the Fourth Dimensional 48th Anniversary Convention to show his prototypes knowing they could help military solders fight back against the 4D monsters.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/pharaohatem"">@PharaohAtem</a></footer></blockquote>

He has no age. And his gender is 21? I hope I'm not missing some sort of joke here... because I think there's something missing. xD. Cool! This character actually has a bio! The second half of it is all about explaining his tech, which is great since most people hop in and Godmod this stuff.

<span class=""bb-s"">You kidding? I am perfect.</span> I still haven't found my post where I accepted/denied posts. Um... am I imagining things?

As for the character... possibly remove him. No one else is supposed to have weapons or anything like that anymore, so, I can't really let you have that character with the weapons/armor/stuffs. Eventually he can have gear, of course, but not now. In the short (Or long. Depends if we ever clear this all up) future,  all of our characters will be given a chance to outfit themselves with weapons and gear and such. At that point your guy might be handed a lab and told to do work, where he can invent his weapons then... possibly.</div>"

Kassy is 5'0"", and is very underweight. She wears a two-part blue dress, an underpart that is a very dark blue, while the over-part is a much lighter color. She wears a necklace with a small helpless dragon on it around her neck. Her hair color is naturally blond, and her eye color is naturally blue. Due to her Fourth Dimensional control over Energy, her eyes turn Purple when she is in control of her powers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Energy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Kassy is a homeless girl, and without parents. Her parents died after she was born, due to an energy surge within her mother. The doctors in the room were badly injured, but the mother and husband were killed by the outburst of power. Luckily for Kassy, her mother was capable of controlling her powers enough to save her from the destruction. Kassy grew up without parents, moving from foster home to foster home throughout Tyoko Japan. Sadly, girls were almost never picked in Japan, except for people visiting from other countries.

The day Kassy was chosen by a nice couple from America, she had an energy outburst. Her magical powers were strong enough to hurt her new mother and father, who disowned her after the attack. On top of the injury, Kassy was injured as well, so badly as to send her into a coma for many years. She has been in her coma since then, and has protected herself from being disconnected with her magic. Anyone who attempted was hurt by her magic, allowing her to live long enough until one day she could wake back up in the hospital.

After Kassy left the hospital, she was a full-grown adult. She had no idea what to do with herself, since she couldn't go back to the orphanage. She didn't know how to get a job, or where to live. She's wandered the streets, taking what she absolutely needs, but never <span class=""bb-i"">trying</span> to hurt people. It hasn't worked well for her, as she is now wanted by the police. She isn't very keen on the idea of going to jail, and has even defended herself from them once, avoiding the cops and injuring several.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Naoto"" type=""button"">Naoto [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Username</span>: Teknonick | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Name</span>: Naoto Tsuyo-sa Taiyō | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Age</span>: 23 | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Gender</span>: Male

Naoto is 5'8"", and weighs a healthy weight. He has strong features, though not pretty by most Japanese standards. He usually wears a black t-shirt, with a thick heavy opened dark grey jacket over top. He usually wears baggy jeans and a belt. His shoes are designed for running in for long distances, and are a very dark color. His hair color is black, and his eyes are a dark hazel. He has a big black dragon necklace around his neck.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Sight.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Naoto is a police officer in Tyoko Japan. He's gone from odd-job, to odd-job, most of his life. But he eventually found himself liking the law and helping keep order. His two twin sisters are both proud of him, and always tease him about how they never thought he would get the job. His older twin sister works as a politician, while his younger works at a local zoo. The three of them live together in a big apartment they have all worked together to afford. The three of them are all very close to each other, and Naoto sees it as his job to protect his two sisters at all cost.

Naoto is usually a good cop, doing his duty, following his orders, and not arguing with his superiors. He is well known for his use over his ability, using it to it's full potential to help solve crimes. He has been waiting for a promotion for weeks now, and was recently sent on the case of a homeless girl who had defended herself against arrest. He has no idea who she is, but he does have a wanted poster of her. Little does he know he's hunting his own cousin, who is willing to attack him, even if he isn't willing to attack her.</div></div>

Kurano is 5'6"" tall, and generally wears the vest, tie, and white button-up shirt with black pants get-up. His eye color is brown, and hair generally disheveled. He normally wears grey tied shoes, and wears a watch with constant reminders on study, food, and class times routinely sounding off. His eyes normally have dark shadows under them from the constant nights he spends staying up to study.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power:</span> Sound. Not unlocked all of his powers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Kurano is a college law student, attending Waseda University, a very prestigious and highly respectable University within the Shinjuku Tokyo region. Kurano was gifted the dimensional power of sound inherited from his mother. His parents weren't the wealthiest, leading him to live a more modest lifestyle growing up. His conflicts with the snobs at Waseda tend to happen often. He's fairly hard-working and serious, shown through his intensive studies into graduating as quickly as possible and becoming a lawyer. Though, growing up in a humble family has given him a chance to realize just how gifted he truly is. Being a student at Waseda caused him and his family to be a target of the local mob, and he's usually pestered often from his usual route between his classes and his apartment. Kurano genuinely tries his hardest to be nice to others, though normally ends up being rude in some way. He uses his power with as much responsibility as possible, trying to hone it so that he could hear an approaching danger much easier. 

Most of Kurano's life was spent in the shadow of his uncle, a successful businessman who would stop at nothing to make sure Kurano was set in life, him not ever having a child and likely will never have the possibility either. Kurano was trained in various important aspects of what's needed to ""make it"" in life. Coercion, looks, and most importantly, how to make money. He very normally conflicted with his uncle, only wanting to inherit the family business. He only recently took up smoking, as a way to escape the constant stress of the world and classes. He had heard recently that those with the power of taste could easily develop fourth dimensional toe cheese.</div></div>

Minami has orange dyed hair, with her natural hair color being a raven black. She normally keeps her hair in a twin-tails look with big clips to hold them there. Minami is 4'8"" tall, and has an almost orange glow in her light brown colored eyes. She normally likes to wear the color yellow or orange to complement her hair and eye colors. Though, rarely she'll go as far as to wear brown on occasions. She wears a yellow dress shirt, and orange capris when not attending school. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power:</span> Smell. Really sucks when that fourth dimensional toe jam comes into effect. Has not earned all of her powers yet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Minami is a recent runaway. Her parents were neglectful with a step-father and mother, and had no friends in school due to the fact that she was more reserved than others, as well as constantly being teased over what she wore and what she's done. She got fed up with it all, and figured that her chances of surviving in the city weren't all that bad. Only three weeks into her runaway plan from Osaka and her arduous journey, she finally got to Tokyo, the city of dreams, as she was told by her deceased father. There, she would be able to survive amongst the countless amounts of other homeless people strewn about the slums. Minami was always ridiculed for being ""too nice, and too trusting."" Minami never once deserved the hate she recieved, it made her that much more tempted to escape from Osaka. 

Minami always attempted to be as kind as possible in the face of her aggressors, not giving in until the day she snapped and ran away. She had an extreme amount of perseverance, always pushing for her dreams no matter how impossible they seemed. Her power, that she inherited from her biological father, always came in handy for her when helping her mother to cook. Though, her life took a downhill turn once her father died and a step-dad took his place. The man constantly smoked, and would verbally abuse her and her mother. Eventually, Minami's mom stopped caring about her, and so did her father. Minami's only friends moved out prior to all of this, and then she experienced an entirely new feeling. Loneliness. Never before had she ever felt alone. It scared Minami to no end, being persecuted, alone, and sad. There was no place for her in her home town, and decided that Tokyo would accept her better than this place had. She would have to learn how to scrounge for food, and sift through the dirty rivers for water. Her personality always stayed positive, however. She knew that braving the tough world be better than being alone until the day that she died. Minami had that amount of common sense at the least. She packed as much food as she could from the kitchen while her parents were at work, and traveled. Now in the prophetic city she was told about, her only wonder was what she needed to do now to find friends.</div></div></div>"

When Roses mother got sick with cancer her farther left the military to take care of his wife and child he put the he learnt in military to work by getting a job demolishing buildings. Roses uncle retired from military years later he built a cottage in the woods and lives a quite life as a hunter he visits his brother and nice on holidays and birthdays and Rose spends the weekends with him.

Rose inherited her hearing powers from her father, and growing up in a city with her hearing she got a lot of headaches until her father taught her how to focus her hearing and block out unnecessary and other wise unwanted sounds by focusing her hearing on spastic sounds. Rose also took after her father in many other ways. Like her father she could be stubborn and thick headed but she also inherited some of his better traits like his focus and determination and growing she was always a bit of a tom boy growing up and as a result she was always bullied but she never backed down even when fight older boys this led to her getting in many fights, Because of this her farther taught military hand to hand combat but fighting and she got pretty good at, but she soon found out that fighting was not her only interest and her father was not the only one to teach her something. Rose spent every other weekend with her uncle she loved the tranquil and relaxing sound of the woods of the woods. When Rose was 13 he started to take her hunting with him as a way to hone even more. Rose didn't enjoy at fist because she felt a little guilty killing defenceless animals but he explained that it was the natural order of things and that the animals that they hunt have had a much better life then the ones she was use to eating although this explanation did not make her feel any better she decided to give it a try and after she got used to the killing she did start to enjoy it and even started to set traps for her pray. On her 18th birthday her uncle got her a pet dog who she named Spike witch she decided to train it as a blood hound to help her rack her pray she even want as far as to give the dog the Fourth Dimensional treatment Spike ended it getting the power of smell witch was perfect for the purpose she was training him for.

Rose decided to took an interest in her fathers work and although this was mainly a way for her to spend more time with him she found it fascinating just seeing that kind of destructive force being used to employed buildings and the sounds of multiple explosions and the collapsing building. she and herd so much from those explosions after that Rose began taking more of an interest in her fathers work and planed to follow in his footsteps. Rose was not grate in high school this was not because she was stupid far from it she was quite intelligent but she had to many hobbies and interests and did not have much time to study but what she did have was focus and a plan for her future. Rose already knew what career she wanted so when she did have the time to study she neglected any subject that was not necessary for her chosen career. because of this she did very well in maths, science and engineering although with science she focused mainly on chemistry.

Okay, a few things I'd like to say.... What is our definition of 'no weapons' or 'fighting'? Can our characters have had fighting skills, but forgot? Or have gotten into fights? Are they allowed to be trained in a weapon skill, but not own one? Are we counting our powers as 'weapons', or how do we handle them?

I'm questing my own characters, mainly because Kassy has had to defend herself. Naoto, being a cop, has had training, and always carries a pistol on him. Not to mention both characters have gotten into a lot of fights.

Ragna, your characters appear to have no problems. Kurano has had 'mob issues' before, but there are no mentions of him actually fighting back, or having anything that would come close to conflicting with the rules. Minami hasn't had any violence at all in her life.

Kurano: 1/3 Yes. 0/3 No. 1/3 Votes so far.
Minami: 1/3 Yes. 0/3 No. 1/3 Votes so far.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Kristof is quite a muscular man of German descent, he stands at a sizable 6'1"" and appears as a quite imposing man due to such however, the large man's face always has a kind gesture a heart smile and a warm and welcoming demeanor, a dark brown beard that is kept rather short is the only bit of hair to be found upon his head. It is easy to tell that the man had never worked an easy day in his life, for his body seems sculpted magnificently. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Powers:</span> Smell and Taste. Perhaps useless separate, however, when combined one can enjoy grandiose meals such as Fourth Dimensional Toe Cheese 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Kristof Brandt, a man of raw physical might and staunch personality. For as long as he could remember Kristof has been a laborer, working one menial job to the next essentially picking things up and putting them somewhere else. In time he became quite good at such physical labor. For years Kristof lived like a dog under a strict regime from his perfectionist family who constantly doubted the man for his lifestyle. Sure, he was unlike them and all of their college degrees, but he had found a different kind of perfection, not of mind, but of body, of soul. 

Eventually Kristof came to meet a woman, one who enthralled him so as to spirit him away from the droll life once lived. The woman, a ringleader for a famous circus that traveled the world far and wide, offered Kristof the position of a strongman. Without a single ounce of doubt, he accepted, and was welcomed with open arms. After years of some of the most rewarding work and travel that Kristof had ever had the pleasure of committing to the pair married, a ringleader and a strongman. Unfortunately what seemed like a most beautiful future quickly became horrid. As shortly after Kristof's wife fell gravely ill never to recover. 

A lingering depression came over the man, he felt broken, hollow, empty. A final show was booked for Tokyo Japan, Kristof had known of numerous new technologies sprouting up, in fact, during the circus's last visit to Japan his wife somehow convinced him to go through with a procedure. Gaining the ability of smell and taste allowed him to enjoy countless meals as if even dog food were a fine cuisine, of course, those were more peaceful times. Quickly brushing up on his linguistical skills the strongman headed out with the circus for a final act in memorial to his wife. Kristof eventually came to realize that his wife would not want him to endlessly mourn her death, but rather celebrate her life, a resurgence of emotion and memories came to him as he preformed his final act in front of a grand audience. 

Kristof is a man among men, who often lets his demeanor and muscular fortitude do the talking for him, he has the capabilities for fine arts and strives to help everyone around him reach a certain perfection in at least one trait. A softhearted and kind soul he does not hesitate to place himself in danger's way if it means the protection of someone close to him.</div></div>

With Kurano, his ""mob issues"" have never really been fights, but he has been beaten up by them and lost every time. He would loan money and not have enough to pay back, that sort of stuff.

The only violence Minami's suffered would probably be verbal abuse if that counts as violence.

Personally, my characters don't break any of the rules from what I see, and they feel enough like characters to be accepted.

With the rules on fighting, it's that they couldn't have been trained by professionals how to fight, nor be fighting prodigy's. If they're scrappy back alley fighters, that's much more acceptable. They could have gotten into fights or scraps and won, but if they clearly are all powerful beings that can win ten on one fights without breaking a sweat, or people with over one hundred confirmed kills or something that's no good.

I would allow people who know how to fight, but are mostly self-taught and don't have Rocky Balboa's insane amount of prowess. If they could beat up the biggest kid on their street, that's okay. If they beat the world champion boxer, that's not.

Rocky was self-taught for the most part, but he had the drive and motivation clearly put out for us to see. With Rose, we haven't exactly seen her use any specific ""Hunter"" skills yet, so we don't know whether she is insanely OP or balanced.

Does she act like whatever she was when she was put into a coma, or did she just suddenly mature once she had to take to the streets?

These are all minor things really that can be roleplayed out though.</div></div>


So for me right now it goes. 

Kurano - accepted

Kassy - accepted, would be nice if some things in the bio were a bit more explained.

Pharaoh has yet to comply to application rule 5 for me to try and accept or deny.
The One has not done anything yet regarding changes, and must first delete characters off of the character's tab and post them here.

Should we have a time limit on fixing characters, and notify those people who have not done it yet, and tell them about the time limit? Because the only two left are Pharaoh and The One for me.

I say no to both the Pharaoh's and The One's until certain rules are adhered to.</div>"

First of, what kind of people just disown a child whom they took into foster care for something she couldn't control? Despicable.

Now, I don't know too much about fourth dimensional powers, but I would consider it a science! Not, ""magic"" And as an added, how does Kassy protect herself during this coma? Essentially she became unconscious, and was moved to a hospital where she spent an arbitrary number of years there, her emotional growth and maturity would likely be stunted from such an occurrence. 

What made her interested in this convention?

^ Those were really cherry picked by the way.

As for Naoto, I think everything appears in order for him. And I assume that he took part in a procedure in order to gain his power.

One thing that needs to be stated, there should certainly be a logical reason for every single character to be where they are, and doing what they are doing. Plain and simple.

I think, in terms of Kristof's muscles, it would be unfair to deny. The problem would be that, are we to say that there are no men like Kristof? Even stronger still, I'd say that a relevant back story <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">must</span></span></span> explain any extraordinary talents or abilities. The bottom line is logical sense.</div>"

For Kristof, his bio is near perfection, and he really doesn't violate any rules in most regards but one. That is the fact that because he's a strongman, he will be inherently strong. Whether it's suplexing a train strong, or just lifting a 400 lb. weight strong makes a difference.

And that is certainly part of it, Kristof has no fighting prowess, no talent in the field to speak of, in fact, it is a likely guess that he hasn't been in a fight his entire life. Does that rule out the idea that he can be very fit? I think not. And do not worry, the whole suplexing a train thing was facetious, which I'm sure you could tell.

Lets talk about Minami for a moment. I get her story, and it all is well put. But, and it may just be my opinion, I find it a bit difficult to understand such young characters. She ran away from an abusive home, understandable. I'm curious though, has she simply wandered into the convention? Was this her first day away, or has she been living in such a way for a while, in that case, I'm surprised nothing horribly advantageous has happened to her. And, I'm not sure how much an eleven year old would understand about such a life. It almost saddens me to think that she could die of starvation.

That is more than a nit pick with some questions I'm interested in the answers to.

As for Kurano, I assumed that he simply is interested in the future of such technology, and seeing as he inherited the power of sound he is probably curious, that is a likely reason for anyone to want to go to the convention. Of course that is just speculation.</div>"
4784,Fourth Dimension,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-02 00:37:00,Teknonick,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Right Ragna. That sounds about right. YES fighting, but no 100 confirmed kill shnaz. The way you've explained it makes perfect sense.

So, then, here's a few more things. Naoto is professionally trained as a cop... but is that bad? Kassy has gotten into situations, but isn't trained... she's more lucky than anything. In that case, Rose is self taught, and weapon-wise doesn't appear to be breaking the rules in that respect. Though, technically she only has one paragraph written for her character, since everything is all jumbled together. Alex's character appears to have a huge hatred towards the monsters, and is creating weapons and putting all of his knowledge specifically towards fighting these beasts. Plus he has weapons and gear.



Now, refreshed the page and read Unraveller's post.

""First of, what kind of people just disown a child whom they took into foster care for something she couldn't control? Despicable."" Bloody evil people mind you. Plus, a lot of people in Japan disown children just because they're girls.

As for Kassy's powers, I'm seeing what you mean. How she protected herself? I was kind of thinking it was her own body acting in ways, like being prodded, or unplugged would set off her powers since her body would know she was being 'shut off'. She did become unconscious, and she has been stunted in those respects. Though, I honestly forgot about that happening to her until I reposted her app... which is why she may have acted more mature when I RPed her, because I forgot right after I made her. xD.

Interested? That was posted IC. She was hungry, and decided she couldn't find food anywhere else. Being as young as she is, she thought she might be able to outsmart the cops and get some food before she was caught, then slip away.

As for Naoto, IDK how he got his powers. Either inherited from his parents, or through the procedure. I don't think that part really matters though. In my own opinion of course.



<span class=""bb-s"">Muscles!? No one in our world has muscles!</span> Perfect! We are defining rules here people.

No fighting prowess, or talent, I believe is enough for him to be acceptable with such muscles. Plus, it's not nearly as OP as anything else could be.



Back to Naoto. He has a gun! And training! I'm not sure about him anymore. Though, you did say if they were explained in a logical sense (And still not being OVERLY powerful), it would be okay, which I agree with.



Read what Ragna just edited. Edit wars.

Yes, I understand. I will edit the bio to explain more of these questions, as I do believe they are important. I might have thought of them, but never explained them, but everyone needs to be clear of what to expect from her. Plus, after writing it, it will help me RP her more clearly in the future.



*Notices another edit from Ragna*

Perhaps they should have a limit. I'm not sure when though. It would have to either be tonight... which is a bit short... or sometime later tomorrow. I wouldn't be home until after 3PM tomorrow though, as I have flights.

About Naoto, we have to keep in mind, it makes perfect sense for the man to be strongly built. He is in fact a police man, thus a gun isn't very far fetched either.

Kassy is 5'0"", and is very underweight. She wears a two-part blue dress, an underpart that is a very dark blue, while the over-part is a much lighter color. She wears a necklace with a small helpless dragon on it around her neck. Her hair color is naturally blond, and her eye color is naturally blue. Due to her Fourth Dimensional control over Energy, her eyes turn Purple when she is in control of her powers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Energy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Kassy is a homeless girl, and without parents. Her parents died after she was born, due to an energy surge within her mother. The doctors in the room were badly injured, but the mother and husband were killed by the outburst of power. Luckily for Kassy, her mother was capable of controlling her powers enough to save her from the destruction. Kassy grew up without parents, moving from foster home to foster home throughout Tyoko Japan. Sadly, girls were almost never picked in Japan, except for people visiting from other countries.

The day Kassy was chosen by a <span class=""bb-b"">seemingly nice couple</span>, she had an energy outburst. Her magical powers were strong enough to hurt her new mother and father, who disowned her after the attack. <span class=""bb-b"">Kassy was injured as well, so badly as to send her into a coma for many years. During the time she was in her coma, she has protected herself from being disconnected with her energy powers. Her control over her fourth dimensional powers seemed to make her body aware of her surroundings, even in the coma, allowing it to protect itself.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Kassy had first entered the coma on her birthday, when she was eleven. She came out of it on her twenty first birthday. Her memories remain intact before the coma, but all events during she cannot remember. She acts like an eleven year old, though has the body of an adult.</span>

After Kassy left the hospital she had no idea what to do with herself, since she couldn't go back to the orphanage. She didn't know how to get a job, or where to live. She's wandered the streets, taking what she absolutely needs, but never <span class=""bb-i"">trying</span> to hurt people. It hasn't worked well for her, as she is now wanted by the police. She isn't very keen on the idea of going to jail, <span class=""bb-b"">and has even defended herself from them at least once.</span></div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Naoto"" type=""button"">Naoto [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Username</span>: Teknonick | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Name</span>: Naoto Tsuyo-sa Taiyō | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Age</span>: 23 | <span class=""bb-b"">Character Gender</span>: Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:
Naoto is 5'8"", and weighs a healthy weight. He has strong features, though not pretty by most Japanese standards. He usually wears a black t-shirt, with a thick heavy opened dark grey jacket over top. He usually wears baggy jeans and a belt. His shoes are designed for running in for long distances, and are a very dark color. His hair color is black, and his eyes are a dark hazel. He has a big black dragon necklace around his neck.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Sight.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Naoto is a police officer in Tyoko Japan. He's gone from odd-job, to odd-job, most of his life. But he eventually found himself liking the law and helping keep order. His two twin sisters are both proud of him, and always tease him about how they never thought he would get the job. His older twin sister works as a politician, while his younger works at a local zoo. The three of them live together in a big apartment they have all worked together to afford. The three of them are all very close to each other, and Naoto sees it as his job to protect his two sisters at all cost.

Naoto is usually a good cop, doing his duty, following his orders, and not arguing with his superiors. He is well known for his use over his ability, using it to it's full potential to help solve crimes. He has been waiting for a promotion for weeks now, and was recently sent on the case of a homeless girl who had defended herself against arrest. He has no idea who she is, but he does have a wanted poster of her. Little does he know he's hunting his own cousin, who is willing to attack him, even if he isn't willing to attack her.</div></div>

Right! Derp! I thought I've explained that! Of course, here's the key word: <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Thought</span></span></span>.

I love learning through IC, but things that have already happened are really important. I actually meant to have a convention stand talking about what they already know about them... but somehow that must have been missed.

They have been appearing for most of the time the technology has been invented. No right away, but pretty soon after it's discovery, as the entire globe flocked like gnats (Is that a saying?) to use this new technology. They seemed to slowly start appearing after people messed with their powers. Although the exact locations appeared to be random, they actually happen because of the powers, and mostly where there are massive usage involving these powers. So, for how long? I'd think about forty years. Where? Anywhere people have these powers!

As for where they came from... this is a very hard concept I'm still working on. I have a bunch of ideas, and all of which are equally cool! Though, I think I'm going to go with the one that makes the most logical sense, which is powerful enough to scare people into never wanting to mess with the fourth dimension in real life. For fear of bringing them through.

If you still want me to spoil their origin, I can give it. But only if you ask for it. And if only some of you want to know, I can send you a PM.</div>"

Alright, her power is smell so her sense of smell would probably be twice as that of a dog's, so considering a convention needs to cater food to A Lot of people, she would smell it miles away. As I stated, it took her roughly three weeks to get to Tokyo from Osaka, which is what I took from an average of how long it takes for most people to get from Osaka to Tokyo on foot for religious purposes. Most of the path from Osaka to Tokyo is actually woodland with little towns sprinkled about that she took advantage of. yes, she did this all on a whim, but that's because her father told her that Tokyo was a city of dreams. She would get there no matter what. Japan's fairly hospitable to runaways by the way, at least most small towns are. In big cities they generally fend for themselves. The town of Kamihara has a policy for runaways where they're allowed to stay only one night for free with dinner. Plus, she'd pack snacks and crap along the way.</div>"

Ooh, okay, I get it now. You're getting into the Lavul mode, and actually seeing beyond our noses. xD

See, this is exactly why you're good at this whole RPing on the forums thing. You ACTUALLY ask these questions, and understand them! ""Um... why is there a dragon at the convention?"" is a pretty big question. I was originally going to toss Kassy straight into the building, but as soon as I thought about it, I realized it made no sense, and I wanted sense to start happening.

IN THEE END, THE MONSTERS WIN! Bam, Kristof can't have a good reaction anymore. MUHAHAHA!

Eheh. In response to what I just said, I love it when you actually don't know how an RP is going to end! Another reason why RPs can end up being more fun than writing a book.

Books get: More structure, better control over characters, and much better focuses on 'the objective'. Among other things as well.

RPs get: Well... chaos... but that's not fun (Unless it's Chaos: The RP.) BUT, we get ideas from tons of people, different characters thrown around, other plot 'discovered' as opposed to being planned.

Yeah, I realize they aren't that smart and really aren't that useful, but it's all up for Tek to decide.

Also, I feel like the twins will be much harder for us to judge, as we all seem to have different ideas on whether they should be accepted or not. They're just kids, they're homicidal maniacs, they have weapons despite the fact that they should have literally no idea how they work and should have killed themselves already at this point.

I'm sorry, but these are the rules. By the way, if it makes it easier, you might want to pick the characters you can rewrite the best, since all of your characters would probably require a slight rewrite. I'm also used to having a lot of characters, but limiting ourselves right now is important. If this RP requires you to have so many, maybe you're not ready for it. Like I said, you may have a chance to bring them in later, IF it turns out we need more. If you still can't decide, perhaps make two new characters, freshly off the factory line, with fully written stories.

*Reads Ragna's post*

Well okay then. Let's get this going then! Okay, we need to make a few assumptions. We can turn the current characters being interacted with into NPCs, and possibly have them 'tossed' out of sight, so they may either come back if they want those characters, or let them disappear if they don't.

Who's going first? Should I to square things away, and shove characters out of the way? I can PP some into 'being heros' to have them tossed out of the way and 'put away'.</div>"

Wow, you guys are nuts! How the heck do you not end up with clones of people?

Anyway, here I go! Alright. Slight edits need to be done, of course, such as fixing the gender, throwing hiders around the apps and pictures, and adding an extra paragraph to each character's bio.

Plus, we need a little more in-depth bio for each character now. Can you give us a little more about their lives, or their interest in the convention? Plus, a little more to their relations to their family might be in order as well, especially with their young age.</div>"

Well, my flights are usually 11-2, then I'm home at around 3, then eating and other stuff until 4. So... you would've been waiting on me.

By the way, stop responding to us. You should be getting sleep. :3

Bio and personality: Shela has not mastered her ability, not even close. In fact, she sees herself useless. She is always lonely, and tries not to bother others, as she thinks she will only get in the way. She has no self confidence in herself, and sees the bad side of things all the time. She has never had any friends, and she thinks she never will. Her only friend is her teddy. Although, truth is, she is actually very talented. She has a lot of potential if she actually tried, her only downside is her self confidence, She has never had confidence, she always wanted to be special, to help others, but every time she tried, she just got in the way, and she was pushed and shoved, nobody cared for her, so, why should she care for herself? She always wanted to be useful, but that dream went out the window. Now, she is hopeless, with nobody to trust, with nobody to cry to, with no friends to help her get back on her feet. She is, alone, <font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">but, one has to ask, what of her parents? Dead, gone. It was all her fault.

That was when she was grabbed, and held hostage. Her parents were forced to lay down their weapons, and when they did, they were killed. Even today, Shela blames herself, for getting involved, getting in the way when she didn't need to.

Okay! Here is my personal pet peeve.... I set up a format, including |'s and specifically saying Bio, not 'and personality'. Just a minor thing. I'm diagnosed with OCD, so... that's mainly why.

As for the bio, you still technically only have one paragraph, as you never separated the new addition from the old one. I'll give a pass on little detail about her past, since she is only 6, but I'm still expecting a little tiny bit more.

Mimi is highly excitable, and she loves to make a song out of anything she can think of, especially when there is a crowd. She states the obvious all the time, and does whatever she can to cheer the mood up. Mimi wanted to be the best there was, wanting to sing and become famous, wanting everyone to know her name.

Hell Mimi! I see you're now actually a female, that's good. Same thing with the whole formatting. My head starts to hurt because of my OCD... I'm sorry. She also doesn't have a lot of content in her bio, as it's mostly just explaining how awesome she is at singing and how much she just absolutely loves it. Then, with the new addition to the bio, suddenly starts talking about her parents. I'd like to know how did she get into singing, if her parents were against it? Didn't they try and stop her and simply say ""No, you can't go. We are your parents, and don't give you permission""? If she did it against her parents wishes, as I think you said, I'd like to know <span class=""bb-i"">how</span>. Also, nothing in her application would tie her connection in with the convention. Why would she be interested in that? That doesn't have to be mentioned in the app, I'd just like to know a reason.


Okay! I have a 'quest' I'd like you to do for me, if you're willing. It's not required, and I won't hold you to it if you don't feel like it, or feel uncomfortable, but I'd like you to try.

I would like you to write a very specific character: You. Go grab the official format I posted, and try to fill in as many details about yourself as you're willing to release. If you don't want your name, or your age, or what you look like posted, just leave it blank. Don't fill in fake information, just instead don't put it there.

This little test is so I can get to know you a little bit better... as right now, I'm having a hard time judging who you are. As I've explained recently, you can't help judging people. I'd like to make sure I can understand who you are, and through this test I will be able to better understand your problems with writing this. If it turns out you write your age is... say... 8... then, um, I'll know exactly why then. If you end up mentioning in your appearance that you're missing half of your fingers... yeah, that might be the reason.

Plus, it's fun! If you don't want to do this, I perfectly understand! If you want, I would be more than willing to do it myself, and put up my own character up. (Keep in mind these characters aren't going in the RP, it's just a test.)

Please no one quote her self-app if she makes one, unless she says you can. She might want to delete it after we've read it for privacy reasons, or simply not wanting a full auto-biography out there in the world.

I'd also like to ask DragonKingUk to do the same please. As for your character, denied because of Unraveller's reasons. I'd like to point out a few things. Both of my characters, are 100% my own. Some backstory might be cliche, but that's unavoidable because there's several billion people on our world, and SOME parts are bound to mix up. Both of Ragna's characters are also his own. Not copied from anywhere but his own brain. Unraveller's is also, surprise, his own. As you've probably seen me say in the OOC, I think he may have been inspired by his avatar... but from the looks of it, it's probably generic. Plus, his character IS a cliche muscleman, with a few twists and turns that ends up putting him in a new category. What's important? It's not a character from some show.

If we accept clones from shows and such, imagine this as a TV series... it would NEVER happen. ""Oh wow, this RP looks so cool, I'd like to contact them and turn it into a series! Oh wait... most of those characters are clones from shows... we'd get in trouble if we did that... nevermind."" and then what? :( Not that that would happen, just a ""what if"" stupid remark I made up. Plus, for all we know we might have people reading this RP, as opposed to attending it. It's happened before! All of my RPs have had stalkers in them that find it very interesting to read, like a book. When you add in characters from other shows, you forget what you're reading, and it's just not the same anymore... plus, it's cheating.

As for Tyson, simply denied because he has no content other than a picture and a hawk. Please add more to him.

That's a hell of a lot of numbers there, but I'm sure it means something. Unraveller, how is that possible? Me, that's understandable. A lot of my posts have been OOC, and IC, so I think that's balanced. The One... you've got a ton of posts, but you've been here for over a year. Same with Dragon... except... for the posting part.

We're looking for quality here, not quantity. I've always said I like lots of characters... but when it's a factory line, forget it. Especially when your characters have worse personalities than NPCs.

By the way, Ragna and I are LITERALLY from an RP where we have given apps to our NPCs, and they're massive! Plus, they also all have statistics, and item lists, and tons of other stuff just to make it more complicated.</div>"

*Nods*

Oh yes, and that's another point. It doesn't look like they're very interested in the RP, or are going to stay when they show us apps like that. :(

You remember on the HBRP, people will drop in apps, and disappear? That's happened in the past, even if they were accepted! They'd just drop in an app just to mess with us or whatever their evil plans were. Or they were so uninterested anymore that they forgot.</div>"

I've got three characters now that I believe have a decent amount of story and I feel for them each. I post in OOC a lot though so there is that. 

I'll have to agree with pretty much everything put out before me. And I'll say it again, characters should come from the soul, have depth and meaning to their creator. So much so that you feel attached at a visceral level.</div>"

I'm not sure how many character's I've had. I do remember I have a whole Taiyo family tree somewhere, but they've constantly evolved, and been used differently in many different RPs. Let's see...

Minaki, Maosu, Old-Man, Lucario, Josia, Josive, Bironica, Leera, Naoto, Jolion, Kassy, Herobrine, Steve, Man-In-Book, Random-Leader-Dude, Liera, Aaron, Liera's Nemesis, Christopher, Eli, Chris/Eli's other Friend. Most of which I've put effort in, other's have slowly evolved over time... other's have disappeared and only remembered at this point. Other's don't even have apps, or haven't been talked about in public. So that's a total of 21 characters. At least 11 of them have actually been 'full characters' with apps. And 5 of them I've used more than 3 times. I tried to add them in order of when they were created... but... it might not be perfect. (Yes Ragna, Christopher is actually mine. :O!)

Yay The One! Also, thanks for the heads up about Dragon.</div>"

Character Name: Lucy
Character Age: 14
Character Gender: Female
Appearance: Much rather not, although, I am 5'2 or something around that, I can't remember exactly. I have brown hair, but often dye it purple. My eyes are blue, even though I prefer green.... I decided to shave my eyebrows off when I was younger because I was bored, and very stupid back then. Xd. But, lesson learned. I have attached earlobes thanks to my parents.  
Fourth Dimensional Power: 
Bio: Now, this is where it gets interesting. I have always been an anime fan, always. Ever since I was a kid, I watched stuff with my bro, Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, Bleach, we watched it all, and I continued to watch it as I grew up. I was amazing at school, I was the best in my class for English. I joined the choir, became a student rep, which is basically class president, and even became teacher's pet. So, school life was good for me. When I hit middle school, I tried my hardest as usual, but, sadly, some kids decided to bully me, I took it, and ignored it for a while but, the more it happened, the more angry I got, I couldn't defend myself, I kept getting pushed around, so, I began doing martial arts, doing Judo, I only went to white belt, or, maybe a little higher, I can't remember. Anyway, I got better at defending myself. So, when I went back school, I let the bullies follow me to a secluded place, where nobody could see us, then I defended myself using Judo. When the teachers asked, I used the fact that I was really small for my age, as well as the fact that I was teacher's pet. So, school was fun. Now, I am in high school. 

So, I grew up, being an anime lover. My mum a police officer, and my dad working in a bank, my brother went on to be a teacher for a while until he found a job at a restaurant. My sister worked at a animal shelter. Then my middle age brother worked worked at a game shop. So, we earned quite a bit of money. So, because of this, the entire family were dedicated to anime or games. Dedicating their rooms to a specific anime or game, beds, wardrobes, draws, tvs, posters, action figures, carpets, everything. Anime or game everything. So, in order.

Mum=Fairytale
Dad=Fire Emblem
Big Brother=Bleach
Sister= Barbie......yeah.....
Little Brother= Deadpool
Me=My Little Pony
Living Room=Dragon Age

Sometimes my little brother changes his room, before it used to be a one piece room. So yeah, now, my mum is pregnant again. So we will have to get a bigger house soon. So, in school, I made a really good friend, best friend, we have known each other for years. He came over for sleepovers all the time. I was tempted to ask him out for a while. Well, you see, we have one laptop, a family laptop, my brother uses it often. So, the one time I decide to get the laptop......I see my best friend.......with my brother.........using the laptop........yeah.....do I need to go further.......I was like 0_0 You know what, keep the laptop. Xd.</div>"
4855,Fourth Dimension,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-02 20:48:00,Teknonick,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Oh wow, nice application! Where did you get the character idea from? Har har har! It's cool your entire family is into anime so much, it's always good to have something your whole family can relate to. (BTW, I'm not a Bronie, so... meh. xD. I don't hate 'em though! Just don't care for 'em. Tis all. Oh, and what's wrong with Barbie? Nah, I'm fine with that one. But, only if you make custom furniture out of toothpicks and stuff. Oh, and Schtroumpfs! This might be why they thought I was gay... oh well.) I can tell at the end you started to feel awkward, so you kind of cut it short, and started jumbling up your thoughts. Understandable, especially due to the content.

You are fourteen, which is something I expected from your writing skills, knowledge, and general character biographies. 

Now, going into 'GM' mode, let's see how much of this I can pick out from an RP App Perspective.

You left out your last name, and 4d power... but duh, for obvious reasons. Your Appearance is much better, though doesn't specify clothing. Again, understandable because real humans don't wear single outfits for their entire lives. I think your bio is much MUCH better than your characters, even though I think it might be smaller! It has actual content, and helps me connect with the character more, despite those things would be useless to mention in an RP scenario (<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">EDIT: I meant in THIS RP scenario.</span></span></span></font>) But, the way you wrote it, and the things you've mentioned has defined your character to a point I would say accepted. Of course, my OCD is acting up with the list in the middle of your bio (Though, it's better than one giant paragraph, as I see it has accidentally helped create two), and the overuse of smiley faces and tons and tons of periods. Plus, the very ending does actually get pretty jumbled up and hard to follow, but for reasons I earlier above are understandable.

I think you may have learned a bit from this experiment, as well as I. Your app right there is your absolute limits, which means if that's not acceptable, your characters would never be. But, I believe it is acceptable in my eyes, which means you <span class=""bb-i"">are</span> capable of writing a character we will all enjoy and be fine with accepting!

Here is my app below!

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Nicky"" type=""button"">Nicky [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Username: Teknonick | Character Name: Nicholas ""Nicky"" Connor Bragg | Character Age: 1/1/1996 (Midnight 100%!), 19 years old | Character Gender: Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:
5'10""-5'11"" inches tall, at an unhealthy 100-110 pounds. I have naturally brown curly hair, which has been kept long and tangled for most of my life. It has been dyed black in the past, though it has faded since the last dye. My eyes are dark-hazel, changing to several dark colors, though they haven't always been. I have a small mustache growing in, like peach fuzz, and two or three hairs on my chin. I have dark spots on my face, though there are not a lot, and they are not <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> dark.

My arms are slightly longer than usual, and my torso is slightly long as well. I have a sunken chest, which look's like someone punched my with a fist made of iron. I have absolutely no muscles to call my own. I'm of American heritage, with very pale skin. I tend to literally pull out whatever I feel is comfortable out of the drawers and my closet to wear. If I'm going out of the house, I might specifically pick jeans, and a good looking shirt.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fourth Dimensional Power</span>: Um... I... don't have a 4d power... but I do have other powers. I probably shouldn't mention them though. I don't want to freak anyone out, ya know?

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bio:"" type=""button"">Bio: [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Starting with my birth, I was a New Years Baby. I came out, <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> on the stroke of midnight. On the exact second. Though, I was breach, because I decided during one of my mother's baths I wanted to flip myself upside down and get stuck. Yep, even before birth I was a very funny baby. It turned out, that since I was a breach birth, I wasn't 'technically' a New Years Baby, since they could have planned it. But the truth was, no one was even paying attention to the time, because of all the stress going on. It just happens a doctor turned and saw the seconds hand strike midnight, along with the others, at the exact time they pulled me out. Everyone cheered at first, until they found out another hospital claimed their baby (Several minutes AFTER me, AND they planned for a New Years Baby, but had no 'medical' help...) as the New Years Baby, and received thousands of dollars worth of baby stuff.

I lived in Maryland, a State within the United States of America, for some of my early years. I was the second born, with an older brother born of another father. He was several years older than I... probably five, or six... I'm not exactly sure.... He had gone through school for a few years, but ended up being bullied. He was taken out of school, which is when my mom started to home school. When I started, I did all the simple stuff. Sit down, cut up magazines, glue them back together, and complain. My reward for completing the <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> hard work was to go and play with my older brother. My older brother played all sorts of games, mainly on the brand new Nintendo 64. I absolutely adored the game Zelda, but I couldn't play it due to my age. I had to convince my older brother to play the game for me, so I could watch and tell him what to do. ""Hit that chicken! Now run! No, why did you let yourself get killed!?"" it was fun. But, my older brother has his darker side. He's very manipulative, and would always want something in return. ""I'll play Zelda... if you make me a sandwich first. Then, we will go down and I pick a sports game you don't like, but I do. <span class=""bb-i"">Then</span>, I <span class=""bb-i"">might</span> think about playing the game you want."" was usually what would happen. Or possibly I play three games he likes, then I get one game I like. Or he would flip a coin to decide things... and he would not flip it if was his side, or flip it was my side. So, he always won in those situations. Despite my hatred for him always tricking me, I still loved playing him, and loved how he could 'just do stuff' that made no sense. ""How can you click the buttons faster than once every second!? I can't even hold the controller!""

We moved to Virginia in 2,000, a year that made it very easy for us to all remember. This is the house I live in now, which I didn't want to move to at first... but I have now come to love and adore! I was slightly older, though I was still doing similar homework. Those first few years after we moved was when my older brother would do the whole ""I play one of our game, for three of mine"" stuff, not so much before. Plus, this is when I started to learn how to use a computer! Though, we had a few rules in the house about them. I can't do anything on the internet without my older brother looking over me, which he was very good at. He didn't abuse that power, as I thought he might have. Also, I couldn't play any mature rated games (Except for blood and violence stuff. We don't care about that.) I also found out we could 'unlock' curse words with age! One you hit ten, you get ONE curse word which is pre-picked for you. At ten, you get hell. You can't abuse it though, and you can't say it around non-family/not-immediate-family. You also can't use it online either, or use it against people. At eleven, it's damn. Twelve is crap. Then, when you're thirteen you start to get two curse words! Once you're eighteen, you get the F word everyone knows about, as well as everything else in the book. But, you have to still use them maturely. I for one didn't like cursing. My older brother even tried to get me to say words I wasn't supposed to when no one else was around. Even though I knew he wouldn't tell on me, I just <span class=""bb-i"">knew</span>, I still didn't want to. Not because I would get in trouble, but because it was wrong. Mom and dad said so! Isn't that enough?

Once my older brother turned eighteen, he moved out after using a few bad choice words around a certain important figure head. He claimed he was leaving anyway, and was going to stay with his biological father anyway. Since then, I've been maturing, and taking care of myself more. I still wasn't allowed on the internet for awhile... but eventually I did, as I was old enough, and pretty much had to since I couldn't have anyone watch over me anymore. Ever since then, I have matured greatly. I was a complete child back then, crying over everything, and being upset all the time, and getting grounded. I think I've only been grounded... at ABSOLUTE MAX three times since my brother has left. Before then I was grounded every other week or so... mainly because of the game issues. Before my brother moved out, I had a younger brother. He was so young... and annoying! But awesome. We loved him very much, and I just couldn't wait to be the better brother my older brother wasn't to me. As he got older, I didn't notice he was able to speak. Or suddenly playing games. Or at the point where he's actually on the internet on his own, and looking things up! I feel very proud of him, and have noticed the changes in him that he is experiencing differently than I had.

I've figured out I am very good at reading people. In person, and through the internet even. I have thought about my entire life many times, and have thought of 'what if' scenarios thousands of times, figuring I would be better then... or worse then... but, in the end, I've decided what has happened throughout my life has made me a very kind and gentle person. Only recently have I become more aggressive and self sufficient. I do realize this, and actually get angry at myself for being the way I am. I've figured I am more angry (It's only slight. I'm just not as nice as I'd like to be. I'm more of a 75% than the 90% I used to be.) mainly because I'm more independent... as it is an outcome. If I'm 100% sweet and innocent, I simply wouldn't function at all. So, I've come to reason with myself it is a must in my personality to change as it has, otherwise I simply wouldn't survive in the world.

In the last year or so, I have graduated home-school, through an official process which actually allows me to show it to people and say ""HA! I'm not as dumb as I looked!"" even though I didn't have to do a test for it. Hehe. Since I've graduated, I've had nothing but free time. That wasn't working out so well, so my parents decided I needed to either start working, or volunteer. I did neither. They noticed I loved playing a game called Garry's Mod, and specifically playing around with helicopters and airplanes, so they decided I liked airplanes! The truth is, I have an addiction with gaming, and I will never truly like anything as much as gaming and role playing... but, flying has turned out to be a close second! I've done pretty well... and proven I actually can do it. I've taken the tests and passed, I've started taking actual flight lessons outside of a classroom (In the air, as opposed to in a book), I've driven to the airport by myself... and now, I'm making actual pilot decisions. I check the weather on my own. I make flight plans to where we fly. I go through the checklist, and ensure we're safe for flight. I talk through the radios. I do all of that on my own, as is a huge milestone in my life, as I have never had do to anything like this before. It is still hard, and it is still draining... but, it works. I've almost finished with my first license, with my next step being to move on. My end goal is to become an airliner pilot. I've looked up something called ""ATP"" which is a 'school' for rapid teaching from either ground zero, or Private Pilot, to Airliner. They even give you a job when you graduate so you can build up hours, and gather income, until you can become an airliner! The problem is... it's EXTREMELY expensive, and my family isn't sure about it. It's still not decided whether I will go or not. At some point I'm still going to have to go to college, as almost no airliner will accept me otherwise, as it's a competition to prove who should be hired.

On top of my recent achievements... is I've met someone. I'm an EXTREMELY awkward person, which has made it impossible for me to ask ANYONE out. My family has thought I as gay for a long time because of such issues. They don't care about that, actually, but they thought I was lying to them for all my life since I couldn't ever explain why I never asked any girls out. This person I've met was part of the same course I went through to get graduated, but was seeing someone else at the time. I kind of liked her during that point... and felt awkward around her, because I knew she had a boyfriend at that point. But, at some point, her boyfriend figured the two of them just didn't work. My mom and her mom ended up pushing me closer to her, because I was (As they thought) less awkward than her, and needed to help stand between her and her ex-boyfriend. She's actually diagnosed with being more awkward than me... but I've never seen it. I've always thought of her as being a much stronger person than I am. We ended up getting pushed together... until the point where I actually asked her out. We never called it being girlfriend and boyfriend... we just said ""I really like hanging out with you."" and left it at that. Though, in my mind, I'm sure it's more than that. As with my 'magical powers... OooOoOoOh' I believe she thinks the same thing as well. But, since we're both so awkward... neither of us has been able to ask it. It's moving slowly at the moment, which is how I like it. Sadly with my career in mind, I can't push much faster with our relationship, even if we wanted to. But, I don't want to just dump her and say ""Sorry... but my career is too important. BYEO!"" and then jump out the window and explode into a million tiny pieces. I can't just do that. But, if I ever feel like I'm not good for her for any reason, I will cut the relationship, simply because I want the best for her, and I can't be selfish to hold her to me and drag her down. I hope it doesn't ever come close to something like that, but it's a possibility.</div></div></div></div></div>"

I've no idea how to get my webcam to take pictures of me, so here's a long-winded description. I am 5'11"" tall, and I generally wear whatever random T-shirt I find that isn't dirty along with blue jeans. I weigh in at about 190, which is supposedly ten pounds larger than I should be with my muscle mass, but I like to eat so who cares. My hair color is a raven black and always has been. People said they've gone nearly blind because of the shininess that is my luxurious hair. I very recently shaved my neck-beard in favor of a Tony Stark style mustache goatee combo. My eyes are a deep and creamy chocolate brown, with which I mesmerize people into becoming my slaves. I have stitches from near fatal wounds around my upper thigh and lower stomach. I like to keep my hair as short as possible, because the first sight of it getting long reminds me of my hatred for my naturally curly hair. I am of Finnish and French descent, so I am a rather attractive looking fellow in the right time of day. I'm tanned as all hell because of how much time I spent outside as a kid, though it is starting to reverse as I've stayed indoors a lot recently.

<span class=""bb-b"">Years 1-6</span>

I was born on the 27th of January. Not a very eventful day, though it was a Friday, so I at least have that. I was given quite possibly the most boring name on earth, Paul. I was told that when I was just born I acted like a crazy person every time I did or saw something new and exciting, which I'm pretty sure I still do today. I am also the oldest child of my family.

At the age of two, I was introduced to video games through the Sega Genesis, an old one that my Dad had around and wanted me to try. I played Sonic 1 and 2 to near death as a child, and I can beat each within the time-span of an hour now. That was a fairly momentous occasion, as it really led to my love of my parents. I wasn't allowed to play on my Dad's PS1 though because he told me that all of the games on it were for adults, even though he had Rayman on there.

At the age of 3, my first younger brother was born. He is a quadriplegic, and also has the mental age of a 6 year old that cannot talk despite the fact that he's 15 now. I also really liked fishing at this age for some reason, and I was just starting to get into cartoons, my favorite being Scooby-Doo at the time.

The crowning triumph of my early life had to be age 4. The Xbox and PS2 are released in 2002, and I was told that I could have both, though I only ever played the Xbox, and my dad hogged the PS2 all day. The very first game I have vivid memories of playing was Jet Set Radio Future on the Xbox, so I will literally never forget that game so long as I live. This was also the age that I discovered Arcades and Toonami, only a little bit before both of them really died out.

At 5, my next little brother was born as a sort of apology that my first brother couldn't ever play with me due to his complications. This brother I have an extreme love/hate relationship with. I also moved from Midvale Utah, over to Cedar Hills Utah because we were stuck in a little 3 bedroom house and had to move to a 5 bedroom house. 

Age 6. The year of Dungeons and Dragons, anime, and a now deceased best-friend. I <span class=""bb-u"">loved</span> the idea of Dungeons and Dragons as a kid, and I actually kind of liked the math behind it as well. I always played the starter edition with my cousins whenever I came over to their place, and I loved the sorcerer class. I also realized that anime comes from Japan at this age, and not that everything in the world was made in America. Then, I made friends with a homeless girl who lived down the street with long un-kempt black hair and the warmest smile you'd ever see in your life, who continued to live for quite a while only because I would go down almost every day and have dinner with her. She always wore this weird looking ring around her almost bony fingers, that she never explained even as we got older. She was the same age as I and I didn't think that I was the only one keeping her alive at the time, I just thought she liked the park a lot. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Those middle years absolutely no one likes talking about. Years 7-12</span>

At age 7, I became way adventurous and liked to explore the mountains near my house with my new-found best-friend, who's name I'm withholding because she means that much to me after her death. I didn't really like school all too much so our ""dragon adventures"" as I called them, helped me out a lot. I got into writing a bit by being really good at spelling. I won the spelling bee for my grade range, which I was super proud of. 

When age 8 rolled around, I felt a lot more responsible. Winter became a time I could also start to go out a lot more and hang out with my best-friend. I had a firm understanding on what was expected of me, and I started to read heavily into comics and manga. I also developed a love for fighting games due to the arcade scene. I played a ton of video games and got my own PC, which I loaded with viruses constantly because I thought I was the millionth visitor to a website. 

Age 9 was fairly uneventful, I did a lot of stupid stuff, and nearly got me and my friend killed a few times because of us getting lost in the mountains at night. 

Age 10. My friend was adopted into my family, as I never knew she was actually homeless until then as she never told me. The only reason she was adopted was because I brought her home one day and my parents realized what she was. They found her files, and saw that she was disowned by abusive parents, and left to fend for herself in our park. We welcomed her as a part of our family, and we made a pact to always be friends. 

Age 11. I GM'ed my first D&amp;D session. It was a train wreck, but I learned a lot about the numbers and severe intricacy's that D&amp;D needed in order to work. Life was fairly normal, and not much new happened. I got less into cartoons, and way more into comics and manga, as well as creating a love for reading. 

Age 12. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Warning: You are about to hear the recalling of a tragic death. If you do not care to know about me this much, just skip this year, as it will be entirely dedicated towards this moment in my life.</span></span>

Me and my best-friend were on a field trip in Salt Lake City to the planetarium. We brought along our Gameboy Advance's and got separated from the group because we were too distracted playing Pokemon. We wandered into the absolute worst block in the city, and payed for it. A man talked us into following him, as he said he would ""take us back to our group."" We were scared, so we easily followed. The man took us to an alley, and told us to go deeper into it. I was afraid of the dark, but I went in because I knew my group would be on the other side. Or, so he told us. A friend of his jumped me, and I was tackled onto the ground. My friend tried to help me, but she was held up against the wall by the other man. Who had a knife. The other man held my eyes open, and He slit her throat, as slowly as he could possibly until her attempts at screams stopped. I tried at my hardest to help her, but I was pinned down too well. I had to witness my best friend's death, and I thought mine was next. I was stabbed in the upper thigh, lower stomach, and passed out. I woke up in the hospital, and I was only found because the blood from my friend leaked into the streets. All I remembered saying was ""is she still alive? She can't be dead."" 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age 13 to now.</span>

I joined my first online RP, and tried to learn the ropes as best I could with what experience I had with D&amp;D. I had to tweak things, a lot, and was lucky to have forum members that were so incredibly helpful to me. I was still reeling from the shock I experienced a year ago, and was told I would experience severe depression at some point in the next following years, once I was past the acceptance stage of her death. I was stuck on anger for a very long time. I played a lot of video games and started to stay indoors a lot more because of my experience. I made more than just a single friend, though these were extremely artificial compared to her. 

When age 14 rolled around, I had already been a part of four forum based RPs and they were really growing onto me. I slowly started to drift away from D&amp;D at this point as well. With sessions becoming much rarer. Life was fairly alright, and I never experienced many problems with school, though I always opted out of field trips even if they would give me a lot of points. 

Age 15, the day I nearly died again. So, I got my learner's permit to drive a car, and I decided to roll around to Wal-mart with my Dad. He waited inside the car, while I went to go inside. There was only one cashier, and I was the only other person there. I was supposed to grab some drugs for my sick brother as quick as I could, but ended up being held at gunpoint by the cashier. The guy demanded all of my money, and had a fairly intimidating revolver pointed squarely at my forehead. I was taking psychology at the time, so i tried to talk him out of it. After a while of talking I was told afterwards that my Dad called the cops, the swat team showed up and stealthily tazed the guy from behind. That was essentially the extent of important events for that year.

Age 16,

that depression finally caught up to me, and triggered when I found a time-capsule made by me and my best friend when were both ten. Pictures, little things I wanted to my older self to know. A lock of each of our own hairs, (for cloning purposes of course.) and what broke the straw for me was an audio recording of her singing Silent Night. I didn't have the energy to get out of bed for two weeks, before my anti-depressants started to work. Though, almost any mention of her almost made me dive back into it. (I've been diagnosed as perfectly okay now. And have almost no chance of that depression ever relapsing again.) I also joined Tek's RP a month after that happened. 

Now. Um, I've joined two RPs so far. Got a WiiU, Xbox One, and PS4, all payed for by my own money. I've also been upgrading my PC recently.  Nothing much else.</div></div>

   That took me way too dang long to do. I had to dig into memories and stuff and that's why it took a bit.

By the way, my Bio's shorter than Tek's by about 7 lines give or take a few.</div>"

One of the stand people has a device. And they're a doctor. Their new device is a doctor device. It uses the power of the fourth dimension to work itself, healing wounds unusually healable in the past. The device pulls in energy, heals Kristof, and hurts the monster. The doctor then get's knocked away and vaporized as the device lays next to Kristof.

That will actually be useful for later too! I can see our characters being beaten the shit out of a lot... so, having something like that will be useful. We can always say it became damage, and now requires complete and utter calmness for it to work anymore.

If the beast has a projectile, like, a poison barb or something, I'd say it'd be funner to fight. Though, maybe we should save that for an even harder version of the fourth dimensional creatures. 

Or, because The One has decided against sending in their apps for the two character limit right now, we can assume that they should be killed instead. And, yeah, they <span class=""bb-u"">really</span> had no purpose being in the convention. I can say that with 100% accuracy. Either that, or the police force is ten times less competent than I had originally thought, and let two extremely under aged children with no sight of their parents or guardians anywhere, into the convention.

[+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Alright, I'm going to go on a tirade with this, and if you don't like those I guess just don't read it. But I need to vent. So, about three or four pages back, The One stated this. ""Sorry, I find it hard to put detailed backstories in, and can't think what to do next, while in the Rp, it is more fun and easier to come up with something."" I tried that once, and I was called out for being seriously lazy. When I defended myself, (this was during the period that I was part of 5-6 RPs and got really burnt out afterwards.) they gave up and allowed it. <span class=""bb-b"">Never</span> do this unless you can remember literally <span class=""bb-b"">every</span> single post you've made with that character.

Why? Well, I contradicted my backstory a ton, when I made it up as I RPed. ""Oh, when he was six the event happened."" And then someone calls you out and says, ""I thought you said it was when he was seven."" 

This means that you can literally make up your Bio as it comes up in the RP and hand-tailor it so that it's convenient to the situation. Say a wall comes up out of nowhere, and you just go, ""oh yeah, my character is an explosives master. He can just knock this down."" It's a lazy way to essentially godmod your characters. 

That's probably why Tek and us are going to seriously reinforce the heavy back-story thing, because otherwise you could just make stupid stuff up on the fly and say it's part of their ""backstory"" that you never explained to us. That's why I got really mad at the twins turning out to be psychopaths when <span class=""bb-b"">absolutely nowhere</span> in the bio explains or even alludes to this insanity whatsoever. 

Making stuff up on the fly, is, and always will be, a lazy way to just make your characters do whatever the heck you want, whenever you want. Now, I didn't mean this in any way to insult you The One, as I don't know whether or not if you do that sort of stuff.

 However, I've had an experience with that, and payed the price. It is <span class=""bb-b"">not fun</span> in any way. When I looked back at it, I seriously regretted ever doing it. Bios on the fly are garbage. Sure, you can leave a detail or two out, but the bios are only for <span class=""bb-b"">us</span> to read. The characters cannot read them, so what's the point in hiding a ton of essential details like <span class=""bb-b"">they're flipping psychopaths</span> from us? It's not like the characters know, so at least let us know so that we don't get in a fight.

For whatever reason, most people don't trust URL links because they could just lead you into a rick roll or some Smashmouth music video instead. Though, I'll link the two songs I'm thinking of.

For if we decide to just run away, and try to get out of the convention, suspenseful and intimidating music, with a techno feel because future.

If we actually decide to face the thing with some sort of strategy, and we manage to get Kristof back up for help. menacing, and intimidating at the same time. because it will feel near hopeless, this song works perfectly. Metal Choir Singing.

<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1x_udEq5YM"">Roar of the Departed Souls</a>

But yeah, it probably wouldn't be forever. Eventually he might start making faces behind Kristof instead... but that might be too far. Hmm... not sure how long to make it though. Probably until some future point where he HAS to talk to Kristof, then he just gets better from then on out.</div>"

As much fun as FF is, and as cool as the story is... there is almost no gameplay. I'm literally doing nothing. I can get away with auto-combat 80% of the time, manual control 5% of the time, and potions 15% of the time. Oh, and using the ONE shroud I was handed for walking down a path. Now, if it get's more interesting than that... and picks up with more characters, and a HUGE battle at some point... then it will be moving up my list. But so far, it's pretty high for the graphics and story alone. The controls are annoying, and as I said before, no gameplay. Still a cool series though, and the story is just amazing. Sadly, I'm liking the characters and story so much... I can't help but thinking about putting them into characters for this RP. I got the doctor from that afro guy with the Chicobo. But he's not enough. ARG, I so badly want to pull out so many of these characters... but that's a bad idea. I'll have to secretly pull in personalities and hints as to looks, but when someone points out ""HEY! That's Blah Blah Blah from FF13!"" I'll say ""But this one has a hat. He's completely different."" xD

Oh, it was Sazh. I thought I was part of a different group before loading up the screen. Anyway, back to gaming!</div>"

If you think 13 is at least okay at best, I suggest any of the others. If you don't like retro stuff, FF12 was still 10 times better despite Yiazmat literally taking 8 legit hours to kill.

I won't deny that 13 had good characters. Well, some good characters. There were more bad than usual, but they at least didn't outnumber the good. FF12 had only one unlikable character, and that was easily Baasch, with Vaan at a close second. It's a good thing Balthier made up for both of their shortcomings and literally gave Final Fantasy the <span class=""bb-b"">greatest airship pirate the world will ever see.</span> I tried making Balthier a character once for an RP. I couldn't do him any justice whatsoever. I played through FF12 three times just to experience Balthier's lines over and over again, just to tell you how much I loved him and him alone.</div>"

As for spoilers... alright. Hmm... I'm wondering whether or not I should add in 'monster posts' more often, perhaps views from the other monsters in different locations?

<span class=""bb-b"">[Naoto]</span>
Naoto flipped the safety on his gun and finished putting it away in it's holster. He slowly walked over to the beast with the strongman sitting on top, and seemingly everyone else was gathered around. Even the thief he was after had wandered over, before stopping and thinking over a few things herself. Naoto reached the beast, and looked it over. He examined the head, where the shot was, and looked at the glowing he had seen before. It was still as vibrant as it had originally been, but the beast showed no signs of moving. ""Odd. This creature has something inside of it, and it still looks alive. I don't know what to make of it."" he said with a short sigh. ""But, from the looks of it... I think it might still be alive."" he said, then looking up at the strongman to make sure he heard.

<span class=""bb-b"">[Kassy]</span>
The young-minded thief stopped before the group, looking up at the musclehead sitting atop what was supposed to be the beast. The officer walked over and started to examine it, before making a few comments about it, though he didn't seem very worried even after what he had said. 'Jenica' then turned on her heels, ready to make her way to the door, but at that precise movement had handcuffs thrown on her hands behind her back. ""You knew this was coming. I'm sure this will all settle over soon, especially since you've saved this place today."" the officer said, turning her to face him. ""That is, what's left of it."" she sighed. The officer looked at her face, showing recognition in his own eyes. ""Oh, so I was correct. You were that one I was sent after. What a coincidence you stuck around long enough for me to catch you, as well as for me to be the one to have the honors of taking you in."" the officer said, before turning her back around, then receiving a blast in the chest, sending him into the beast's head. The girl sent energy into the hand-cuffs, snapping them off instantly, and bolted for the doors quickly.

<span class=""bb-b"">{Unexpected Visitor}</span>
A man walked in the doors, forcing Kassy to skid to a stop before him, holding herself in a defensive stance. ""No worries about that, you've been excused of all crimes. In fact, all of you have. All of you have been sentenced for various reasons, all within the last hour, but they have been dealt with."" the man said. It was now obvious he had two armed guards standing beside him, fully dressed in very futuristic-looking red armor. They wore black visors, hiding their face, and were outfitted with fully-automatic sub-machine guns of an unknown type. ""I'm sorry, what was I accused of?"" Naoto asked after he picked himself up after the blast. ""You failed to call fo backup in time, and completely missed the fact this young miss had stolen a very dangerous device, which young Tanaka had to warn you about."" the man said very seriously. ""That's not a crime!"" Naoto shot back. ""It is when you decided to not shoot her."" the man responded shortly after.

""As for the rest of you, it's very simple. Messing with official police business is a crime, and all of you would be sent to jail even after your heroics. The times have changed, alas, otherwise they would have easily forgiven you. But, lucky for the bunch of you, I have convinced them to forgive your 'crimes', as they see it in their eyes, under one condition. And that is if you all come work for me. Even the young misses Shiroka.  I am aware she is a runaway from home, and has no one to take care of her. But, I believe it is up to her to decide her fate, as I have been given that much leeway. Come work for me, as I see all of you have powers beyond your comprehension, or you can go back home to your parents. The rest of you do not have this option. It's either work under my supervision, or go to jail.""

""I don't see why what I did was a crime! I'm an officer, one of the best mind you, and I fulfilled my duties. I didn't let harm come to others as best to my ability, I didn't risk the lives of others-"" he said, but was shortly interrupted, ""Except for when you shot at the beast as he stood next to Tanaka and Shiroka."" the mysterious man cut in quickly. ""Don't try to cut your way out of this. As horrible as it sounds, the government is not as they used to be, and are willing to throw you in jail without a proper investigation. You should consider yourselves lucky you're going to work for me, as I'm going to change your lives. All of you have powers, as I'm sure you're partially aware of, but you all hold much more than the average man. If you're willing to join us, then I can explain. If not, then it would be too dangerous to announce this information to all of you. But I will say this.... Young Tanaka, did you not feel the energy as it rushed passed you, right after you had shot the creature and dove for the ground? That was the young thief... Kassy, not Jenica, by the way... she used her powers over energy to send that. You can't feel that without control over it as well... or at least, the possibility to control it."" the man smiled, feeling like he let loose a secret he shouldn't have.

<span class=""bb-b"">{<span class=""bb-s"">The Doctor's Evil Twin</span> A Mysterious lab-coat Man}</span>
Another man burst through the doors behind the first and his men, quickly scanning the room in several tight spins. ""What! What happened to my convention!?"" he screamed loudly. He stopped spinning, staring at Kassy and the rest of the group behind her. ""All of you did this! Guards, shoot them! Shoot all of them down!"" he commanded the other man's guards. The guards stood there, ignoring his commands, as they could feel the real commander did not wish them to do as they were just told. ""What are you waiting for!? Shoot all of these idiots! They broke my convention, and my countless inventions! Shooooot theeemmm!"" he yelled, jumping into the air after he faced them, clenching his fists. ""Enough."" the original mysterious man told this new man wearing a lab coat. The lab-coated man slumped down, facing his feet. He then bolted upright, and got right in the 'main-man's' face. ""Wait. You're not planning on hiring them, are you?"" he asked, sounding like it would be the end of the world if what he said was true. ""That's up to them."" the lead man said.

Did stuff, progressed the plot, added character insight. 

I'm somewhat anticipating what sort of weapons each character will be getting. It would be nice if they each had to make their own as part of training, but that would probably take a lot of unnecessary time. I'm just going to assume there'll either be pre-built weapons waiting for them, or that they get to maybe design the looks but not get to actually create the weapons. 

I think I'm just setting my hopes too high. Anyways, instead of ACT prep classes, I'm going to be renting a book on how to prepare for the ACTs instead. Those classes cost $50 per session, which I'm pretty sure is considered daylight robbery. This means, I'll be able to actually post throughout this month because I won't be spending an extra four hours after school everyday, stuck, prepping for the ACT with no internet.

Mmm, the feeling of a near empty OOC. For some reason it makes me nostalgic. The times when I was in RPs with only one or two other guys and, when one of them dropped out, the RP pretty much died on the spot. That was until the mere sighting of my username pretty much made anyone want to join because <span class=""bb-i"">""oh snap, *insert one of many old usernames here* is in the RP. Who forgot to invite me?""</span> Looks like I have to build that reputation up again. <img src=""/smilies/cool.gif""/>

Hope you guys don't mind me editing this post a lot.

As for weapons... I like the idea of building our own, but that could be an extra part later on. For now, they are minimally described pre-made weapons with a list of various powers and models, then our characters pick one up and fully describe it themselves.

I'd also like to point out, there are two doctor dudes. Lab-coat, and healing doctor. Healing doctor's been sneaking around and such (I keep forgetting to post about him), but he'll catch up after Kristof's response.

Oh, and I found out I like tea! I didn't used to, but I'm getting there. So far it's a 1/4 ratio of Tea/Sugar, respectively. But the last tea I had was 'dark' tea, and tasted really good! But I still added in sugar because that's what I was in the mood for. *Bursts into the house with very little emotion* ""Sugar."" ""What?"" ""Sugar...

I only like herbal tea. Helps clear up stress, and has no calories. You just put ground up tea leaves into boiling hot water, and bam, you're good. Plus, it makes me feel like a Chinese Emperor and helps me scheme a plan on how to take over Mongolia.

You are officially the smartest person I know. Either that, or it's because I said more than ""More."" in a deep accent.

Well, I don't drink it for stress, and low calories kill me. So... MORE SUGAR! Actually, when I REALLY liked it, my family went to a Chinese eating place of food, and they served that tea that takes 1 cent to make, so I poured some just to try it. I was like ""Blah."" then added sugar, and was like ""OMG, BEST DRINK EVER. Except for virgin pina coladas."" hmm... awesome sugary cheap tea....

If I pull into my memory banks a bit, I think it went like this:

OOC is where you learn to hate your fellow RPers. IC is where you act on that hate.

Maybe it rhymed now that I think of it, or it had to do something with getting to know each other. I'll edit that if I can remember the exact words I put down.

I like it more when IC is something that's thought out rather than, ""someone posted, I need to reply within the next three minutes so that we can just go back and forth really fast."" Of course, that's the embodiment of the freeplay section. I don't have anything against them, heck I was <span class=""bb-b"">stuck</span> in the freeplay section for two years.

Also, I've been in a coma, and it's pretty clear that you remember 0% of what happens while you are in a coma. If you had really good dreams, it doesn't matter because you won't remember them. Comas are the perfect description of a waste of time.

You have to work for that talent, and I've heard it can take years of training before you can just snap your fingers and instantly appear in a lucid dream once you fall asleep. I attempted it once, had one after a few months and then said, ""scratch that one off the list."" It did feel amazing, and 100% realistic, but it just takes too much time out of the day. You have to meditate, reality check, and hypnotize before you even have a chance of getting one. All of which can suck 2 hours of free time from the day, and it only takes effect once you're asleep.

I could detail my lucid dream later, because I have it completely written down on a dream journal I made. It was, interesting, to say the least.

I only hope that kid's lucky and comes out of it fast. People who are stuck in comas for months are physically degenerated, and mentally younger when they get out. It can feel terrifying to be in peak condition, and then an instant later you wake up in a hospital bed and have lost control of your motor functions, and barely remember how to speak.</div>"

My mom and dad have though, so they know how to guide me through it. My dad can fall asleep by snapping his fingers (Not literally, but he falls asleep almost instantly when we watch shows), and my mom is very powerful when it comes to things like that.

My mom has also died in the past, and she remembers a few details, but we've come up with out theory of why we forget based off of her experience. Not to mention numerous other times she SHOULD have died, but was save 'coincidentally' each time. AKA, hearing a voice yell at her on the radio, telling her to NOT go the usual route she normally takes to get to work. Sometime later, she heard that the bridge she drives under collapsed at exactly the same time she would have been under it. She's dealt with a lot of things in that genre of lucid dreaming. I need to remember to ask her about it sometime.

Woot! :D! By the way, does anyone have any ideas for more locations? I'm probably going to have a few more training areas, possibly one big holodeck version. There are also going to be other exits for our characters. Oh, and Mr. Boss's office.

The rooms are to be 'discovered' by our characters. So once you pick your room, feel free to pick what they look like after you enter it.</div>"

I feel like a medical bay area would be necessary. Or a break room, for Kurano to smoke or something.

Oh yeah, a medical bay would probably be needed. A break room would be a good idea too. I think I'll have it set out of the way aaalllll the way in the back near the boss's office, so Kurano would always have to debate with himself whether he wants to go there and risk having a conversation with the boss. lol. Well, not that that's bad right now... but, later his personality might be a little strong for Kurano's taste... without sayin too much. ;)

Oh, and probably a 'gear up' room, though I kind of figured the changing rooms were that. But, perhaps a lab might also be good, for Mr. Labcoat to hang out and have all his stuff hanging up.</div>"

All's fine though, nothing's happened. Like I said, I have to do a crazy amount of studying to even come close to scoring a 36 on the ACTs. I'm hoping to at least get a 32 in each category, and from what I've been told, the best way to do this is with 50 hours of study allotted into all of the subjects.

It's possible that Unraveller has either unofficially left, or he's just really busy like me. There's also the possibility that he thinks forum roleplaying sucks and just decided to leave us. There was a point where I thought that as well.

I'll post over on the other forums only if I have the time to do that later. I'll also post on Code Lyoko if there's time for that.</div>"

Why are there only three of us in this RP. Just like the four of us on HBRP? *Sigh*

I think four-five active RPers might be a reasonable amount of people. Or six-eight semi-active... but then they're not as fun. We should look around and try to get one or two more people to join this. We could easily jump him into the story line as a 'victim' to the monster attacks. Oh, what?

Without Unraveller that might be a bit hard. So we should either wait for a response from Unraveller, or just try and get some more people right now. You don't have names or bios for any of the other people in the facility right? If so, we could just have them be one of those characters already inside the compound. If we don't move the plot past that too quickly.

Major problem is we can't exactly advertise the RP, as that's against the rules. Except for in signatures I'm sure, where it's okay.

I'm only on for a teeny bit today. I can get caught up, but can't necessarily post yet. Tommorrow is an early out day, so I'll have a bit of time then.</div>"
5031,Fourth Dimension,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-23 03:24:00,Teknonick,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Well, I have a bit of plot planned out already for scenarios similar to that. As for them already being someone in the compound, that will work. I have a few groups in the compound picked out, but there are also purposefully undesigned characters as well. There could be several people already in the compound that haven't been assigned groups yet, or might not 'fit in' with the rest of their group, so they decide it's better to find other groups to work with.

I need to start writing out the groups, characters, and bios for the characters I have so I can keep track of them, and reference them properly. I have several other 4D hero groups picked out that our characters will run into, but writing them somewhere will help make it easier for me to reference.

Speaking of characters, I still don't have Mr. Boss and the labcoat guy 100% written out. I have their backgrounds, thoughts, ideals, future-development, all that jazz, picked out... but I don't have any ideas for their names, or heritage. I was originally thinking the lab-coat guy was Japanese... but you pointed out he seemed different, so I thought Scottish... but I'm not sure. As for the boss-guy, he's supposed to be kind of heavy-set, without being considered unhealthily overweight, as well as slightly tall (But not to match Kristof, that's for sure.) Any ideas?

I was thinking something like... for Mr. Bossman to be ""Humphrey Branton"", perhaps? I'm not sure. I really want to get names down for these guys so we don't have to say ""Mr. Labcoat"" and ""Mr. Boss"" all the time. Give some variety! Eh?</div>"
5032,Fourth Dimension,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76021-fourth-dimension,"['Large Group', 'Casual', 'Advanced', 'Small Group', 'Sci-Fi']",2015-02-23 05:03:00,RawrgnatheBloodfridge,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alright, so that's a possibility then. 

The problem is that if we don't get anyone else interested in this, all of that planning pretty much goes to waste.

For the boss, I'm feeling a sort of imposing ethnicity. Mongolians tend to look very harsh, but the boss feels kind as well. Maybe Austrian, or a Scandinavian country. Japanese people are actually jerks, not so much to foreigners, but people of their own ethnicity. They'll spit on each other, curse at each other, even telling each other to kill themselves. Japan doesn't have a high suicide rate because ""oh spooky ghost stories,"" it's mostly because of stress and that stress leads to the hating of others to relieve that stress.

The lab-coat guy feels like he could be an extremely stressed-out and hard-working Japanese citizen, that tends to push others around because of whatever. Maybe he has a low amount of patience, or just generally doesn't like other people. He fits a few underlying stereotypes of the Japanese Middle Class. For him, I'd say that Fumio (""literary/scholarly child."") Fukui (""fortunate"") works. Though, I understand if you have a problem with the name being an alliteration. It'd probably be hard to remember which one is the first and last name, when they both start with the same letter, and sound similar.</div>"

I forgot that our characters are human too... bathrooms anyone? I've also finished up the lab, as well as renamed a few things. There are now borders defining sectors as well, so as to not confuse people that they are indeed separate areas. I've also added in an arrow pointing off to the chow-hall, and another one to the long-distance deployment area. Oh, and labeled the (Private) training rooms Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Zelta (Zelta being Mr. Fukui's favorite word (That he made up), in case you didn't notice.)

Does anyone have any more ideas for more rooms in Sector Zelta? We need a few here and there to make things feel cozy... perhaps a big main 'entertainment' area? Along with a few more brake rooms scattered, as the sector is big. It just happens a lot of the important stuff our characters need to worry about are all clumped together in one area.

Hmm... does anyone think the rooms are too big? I mean... each room is pretty big! 20x24 meters (480 square meters), being about 1575 feet! That's bigger than most apartments. If they're to be so big... we'd have to at least say our characters up there are 'special', and when we design then ourselves, come up with multiple rooms inside of our bedrooms (Private bathrooms, kitchen, closet, ETC) probably.

Now that I'm on the track that I've actually set each pixel as a full square meter... wow, everything is HUUUUGE! Does anyone think one room or another should be resized? I think I got the lab's proportions correct, and possibly each individual changing room... but everything else seems massive in comparison.

I've found the greatest way to recruit people. Ever. So, after a while of studying the ""introduce yourself"" section, anyone that welcomes and generally just says ""hey thanks for joining the guild,"" are more likely to have these newcomers follow them onto their RPs. In other words, kindness begets friendship. Once you get that friendship, it means they're more likely to join. 

Granted, this didn't work every single time, but I can say that it's a good 50% chance at least. So if we're ever completely desperate, this plan works amazingly well.

Btw, I've made a sig for our thread if either of you guys ever feel like using it. Or, if you do want a sig, but just don't like the one that I've made, I can make another one. Or, if you just feel like it should have a minor variation, like darker colors, or maybe lighter colors, I can do that as well. I tried my hardest to make this feel ""four dimensional"" in a way, but I have no idea if that effect affects you guys.

Here's a much lighter version, with different plants. There's much more of a ""warm"" feeling with this one so I don't know if you would like it. If you prefer it to keep that sort of darker theme, I can do another change.

Fourth Dimensional Power: Sight

Bio: All her life Audrey Moure lived as an ordinary citizen of California. She was into science and technology and studied it as much as she could during high school. For as long as she could remember she had been hearing all about the 4th dimension, but never had any of the powers since she never undergone the procedure. Finally when she turned 16 she decided to see exactly what this new dimension was.

When Audrey woke up from the procedure she could see differently than she ever could before. Shapes and light and color were so much more complex. She was amazed at this new world. After that day Audrey was fascinated with the 4th dimension and was determined to figure it out. She enrolled in university courses dedicated to understanding the 4th dimension. The only problem was that her new sight was very hard to get used to. She had great difficulty comprehending things such as text or 2d images. During her research she developed a special kind of glasses that would allow her to see somewhat normally again, though she was never able to perfect it.

After graduating with honors Audrey was offered a job as an assistant at a research facility in Tokyo. This would be a once in a lifetime opportunity, so she accepted immediately. Soon she arrived at the laboratory, excited to begin researching.

Extra: Audrey had to study some weird thing called Fourth Dimensional Toe Cheese in one of her classes.</div></div></div>"

Ever since he had his operation, he had found that he could see things other people couldn't, but it was written off as impossible because, originally, he was told he had amplified taste. He was involved in the first military engagements against the strange creatures as a field medic. Loss after loss, however, had him retire. It wasn't until his home was attacked and family killed by forth dimensional creatures, that his power was re-evaluated to confirm he had the power of sight, not taste, and surprisingly enough he was starting to develop sound as well. The mistake was from a mix-up in documents. Due to this, Garsin was annexed from society and placed under lockdown for his and others' safety. Though he is in an underground cell, it is made quite cozy like a small cabin on the inside with fake windows that are screens that display the outdoors. Barely a month passed before a group called Team Alpha contacted Garsin, promising him a shot at getting some revenge on the strange creatures. Garsin was ready and willing to get revenge on them, however, after being part of the group for a long time one of the only friends, and partner, he had in Team Alpha was was fatally injured on the field. When asked to leave him, Garsin disobeyed orders and tended to the man's injuries and extracted him as well. Garsin saved him but was promptly fired upon his return, though Garsin quickly shot back, saying that it was fine by him because if their weapons weren't such crap that they wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place! After so much death, loss, and failure, he decided he would stay in his ""cabin"" until he finally died. But as fate would have it, that would soon change as well...<br/><br/>WHEN DEPLOYED: He is equipped with a heavy two handed energy sword (think phantasy star) and a sidewinder-like heavy gun (like the weapon on titanfall, but uses bullets), both magnetically held onto his back. He also carries extra energy cells for his blade. He also has a medical satchel that hangs at the back of his belt. His sword can last a bit on one cell, but has a special ability to turn into an energy hammer. once it is in hammer mode, he can deal a devastating attack but it eats up the whole cell on contact. He carries a total of 5 energy cells. one already loaded, and four extra.<br/><br/>Also, he can no longer stand strong cheeses because they all remind him of the horrific training video about fourth dimensional toe cheese.</div>"

He was 'told' about smell, but did he ever actually have it? Sight and Sound... when did he acquire those two? Did he get both at the same exact time, or one right after the other, or one years and years afterwards? It's likely your character had at least one ability when they were born, if his parents had some.

When the creatures first came, only regular military fought, and failed horribly at every turn. Then, the company who invented the technology started gathering up special powered people to help get rid of these monsters... for the sake of the company. They have been deployed little often, and only in the recent few years.<br/> You can, if you wish, start out in that facility as another roleplayer joining (Who is now ACCEPTED! YAY!) is starting out there as a scientist. You could be part of one of the already existing groups... perhaps taken off duty temporarily for conflicting with your past group. You could even have been part of Team Alpha, which is the 'bully' group at the site (Which I haven't told anyone about yet, so ding! Spoilers!), and either still be in their group, or having conflicted.<br/> As for the weapons. <span class=""bb-s"">NO NO NO NO NO. No coming up with awesome ideas that do not conflict with the technology ideas I had at all in any way. BAD BOY. You're not allowed to do that!</span> I like them. ;). You might say you left your group because your weapons malfunctioned (AKA, why they're so weak... yes, those weapons are actually pretty under-op lol), and have to get an upgrade from the head-scientist before you can be redeployed.<br/> More specifically about your character... can you explain his nationality a little more? The RP is centered in Japan, but it's clear he's foreign. So we'd like a little hint as to where he's from... unless you want to keep that hidden until IC, which is fine. ;)<br/><br/>Edit 1:<br/><br/>Oh wait, I just noticed the ROCKET LAUNCHER. That might be a bit OP. Most operations take place within the city of Tyoko itself, where they want to keep damage down to a minimum (Especially since no one knows they exist.) So... perhaps not that gun.<br/><br/>Edit 2:<br/><br/>Okay people. I've just gotten word with Ragna, and things are very very bad for him. He won't be able to post anymore, unless by luck and as cameos. He may be back in full swing in a few years, but only Toe Cheese knows.... We'l continue without him, and just use his character in the background.<br/><br/>Also, Gambit, yes, I did just say you're fully accepted in that post. Welcome aboard!</div>"

I guess I never read the description, just used it lol. well, instead of the micro missles, we can go with regular large caliber bullets like I thought it was, haha.<br/><br/> As for him being in an experimental military group, I'm fine with scratching that. It was right before work and I was just trying to throw my first thoughts together before I had to run out the door. He wasn't staying there anyway. What if I had him recently fired from Alpha for disobeying orders because he extracted/ gave medical attention to someone on the field even though he was told to leave them behind, and he said that it was fine by him because if their weapons weren't such crap that they wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place! ...lol<br/><br/>ok, as for powers, he's had sight for a while (since his first operation), but he was documented as having taste, due to a mix-up of documents. It was later confirmed after his home was attacked, that the reason he was attacked was because he actually had the power of sight, which he believed all along, and somehow was starting to develop sound. Sound isn't completely there or anything, just faintly. I don't believe I mentioned smell at all.<br/><br/>As for his weapons, I think he is going to change his sword in for a gravity hammer type weapon because where you can't cut something you can sure as heck hit it with blunt force. because blunt force says ""F YOU ARMOR!"" i dunno. I haven't decided yet.<br/><br/>I separated everything so that it was easy for me to keep up with lol. Would those changes sufice? I'm gonna hold off on editing the cs until its right so im not doing it multiple times.<img src=""/smilies/magnum.gif""/><br/><br/></div>"

Yeah, don't read those either. Same issue until page 100 or something. lol<br/><br/>Oh, lol about the sidewinder. Yeah, those changes would work.<br/><br/>As for the group idea, that would work. I can see the Alpha guys getting really angry at him for having disobeyed orders. Perhaps your character and the person he saved are friends?<br/><br/>Oh, taste. I thought you did say smell, not taste. Doesn't matter really. But okay, those changes will work. Just make sure it's clear. ;)<br/><br/>You can change the weapon if you like, ;)<br/><br/>Those changes would suffice.</div>"

However, it wasn't until his home was attacked and family killed by forth dimensional creatures, that his power was re-evaluated to confirm he had the power of sight, not taste, and surprisingly enough he was starting to develop sound as well.The mistake was from a mix-up in documents. Due to this, Garsin was annexed from civilian society and placed under lockdown for his and others' safety until he was needed by Team Alpha. Though he is in an underground cell, it is made quite cozy like a small cabin on the inside with fake windows that are screens that display the outdoors. <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">His was involved in the first military engagements against the strange creatures as a field medic.</span></span> Loss after loss, however, had him retire early. <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">That was when Team Alpha picked him up. However, after being part of the group for a little while one of the few freinds he had was horridly injured on the field.</span></span> When asked to leave him, Garsin disobeyed orders and tended to the man's injuries and extracted him as well. He was promptly fired upon his return, but Garsin quickly shot back, saying that it was fine by him because if their weapons weren't such crap that they wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place! After so much death and failure, he decided he would stay in his ""cabin"" until he finally died. But as fate would have it, that would soon change as well...<br/><br/>WHEN DEPLOYED: He is equipped with a heavy two handed energy sword (think phantasy star) and a sidewinder-like heavy gun (like the weapon on titanfall, but uses bullets), both magnetically held onto his back. He also carries extra energy cells for his blade. He also has a medical satchel that hangs at the back of his belt. His sword can last a bit on one cell, but has a special ability to turn into an energy hammer. once it is in hammer mode, he can deal a devastating attack but it eats up the whole cell on contact. He carries a total of 5 energy cells. one already loaded, and four extra.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/jollan"">@Jollan</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>Okay, I like this a lot better! I was going to point an issue out before... but later on, it fixes that.<br/><br/>I will say that mentioning he was part of Team Alpha before mentioning he used to be in the military is a little confusing. I have bolded and underlined those parts in the quote for you to spot them easier.<br/><br/>So, let me get this straight. Garsin was part of the military cell trying to take out the monsters (That all failed), back when they thought he had the power of taste. Then, his home was destroyed, at which point they found out he had Sight, and not taste. Some time later, maybe around the same time, he also had Sound. At which point the secret facility discovered him (They are only interested in people with multiple powers, and ALL people with more than one end up with all of them at some point), and then assigned him to team Alpha.<br/><br/>If all of that is correct, then you are ready to be accepted! We'll, after you read the rules too.</div>"

I'm getting slightly confused when you say that. To me (And my religion), lucid dreaming isn't really dreaming. It's like... being outside of your body, in the real world, while you 'sleep'... so... it's really throwing me off. But, I think I understand what you mean.<br/><br/>Most of the time my dreams are like that. You know what the weirdest dreams are? The ones where your dream characters KNOW you're dreaming, and tell YOU... and then they act completely human, with a personality you've never imagined before, and they tell you they're not a dream character, but another person inside of your dream as well.<br/><br/>Or even creepier, when you have a weird dream, and your girlfriend is in it... six+ years before you even knew she existed.</div>"

OBEs are a spiritual state, where you exist as nothing but a spirit in your dream world rather than a tangible object. Usually in OBEs it's easier to interact with your sub-conscious, and delve deep into your mind. <br/><br/>Simple lucid dreams, which just means, being ""awake"" within your dreams is like having full consciousness and feeling, which is what I want to experience more of. Taking control of dreams is boring if you can't feel and experience them lucidly.</div>"

OBE is where your spirit exits your body, while you're in the real world (Not the dream world at all.)<br/><br/>My mother had it happen to her on the operating table, saw chains attached to her like The Almanac, something on the top self, then when she slammed back into her body, she told the doctors what she saw on the shelf.<br/><br/>They were shocked she knew it was there, or who any of the doctors where, or what they were doing, because they said she was completely out during the whole procedure.<br/><br/>EDIT: Oh sh!t, here comes Jollan to say ""What.

Read on stuff made by Dr. Stephen LaBerge and several other experts who all said the same things. Lucid Dreams are when you're fully aware and conscious in a dream. OBEs are when you exist as a spirit in your dreams. They all tended to say the exact same things on the matter and terminology. The WILD and MILD technique, False Awakenings, dream constructs, and all of that. I do think the coolest things is the ability to speak to your sub-conscious though, which they tend to call the ""dream maker"". Ask it things like ""What should I do?"" and ""Why is this happening?"" and it usually answers. The best part is, you're pretty much getting these answers from a smarter and wiser version of yourself that's locked deep inside. It's the main reason I wanted to get back into this stuff.<br/><br/>I get most of my information through this website <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><a href=""http://www.world-of-lucid-dreaming.com/articles.html"" rel=""nofollow"">http://www.world-of-lucid-dreaming.com/articles.html</a></div></div>, and Dr. Stepehn LaBerge's books, if you want to see what I'm talking about.</div>"

Her skin is rather pallid from the amount of time she spends indoors and is usually smudged with a stray nick or bruise.<br/><br/>She stands at just 154 cm, making seem to be a rather passive or non - threatening figure but her file in the police database places her as being involved in several brawls.

Following her encounter with meningitis at the age of six, Tachibana has all but completely lost her sight. She is able to distinguish light from the dark and motion, but she cannot see definite shapes or colors.<br/><br/>It was soon afterwards that she began to develop an uncanny set of hearing faculties. With it came some startling stories that she told her parents. Convinced that her fantastic stories -- one of them being of a bizarre entity that otherworldly beings referred to as the all mighty Fourth Dimensional toe cheese-- would result in her being killed or kidnapped by the government or private research sector,  they quickly scared her into keeping silent about her tendencies. They explained her sudden quietness as another effect of her childhood illness.<br/><br/>At around age ten, Tachibana made a startling discovery as she began to attend her local dojo to begin training under her aunt, a local Goju Ryu karateka. She quickly noticed that every time she became frustrated, a burst of inexplicable color began to bloom at her hands and feet, sometimes even covering portions of her body in a second skin. Being blind at this stage in her life, she found these colors to be beyond the normal colors she had seen when she was still very young. While this would not affect the other children she practiced with, she still does not understand their properties.<br/><br/>In order to better isolate herself, Tachibana attends college classes online and rarely leaves her apartment. She is a certified interpreter and works translating documents from her apartment on a freelance basis. It makes an income that is decent enough for her to survive and enjoy a few comforts.</div></div></div>"

I'll admit that I laughed a bit, but only because the idiot didn't know what to do. Everyone was shouting different things like, ""stop, drop, and roll!"" or ""Take your clothes off!"" or ""get a bucket of water!"" or ""take your clothes off!"" again. This one woman was really adamant about him taking off his clothes. After about a minute, someone grabbed one of the coolers and dumped it over him. He was covered in sodas, alcohol, which I'm surprised didn't burn him even more, and icy cold water. It was extremely amusing to say the least.<br/><br/>Ooh, just found another legitimate complaint about the Advanced section. They never post IC. Just checked out one that was started like a year back, is still going today, only 56 posts. Are you kidding me? Though the OOC had an impressive 666 posts, which I chuckled a bit at. If you told me ""hey, we want you to make 20 paragraph long posts, but only do them every 20 days,"" I'd instantly turn you down. I RP to RP, not to make unnecessarily long posts, and talk about dank memes in the OOC. Maybe this is why the 1X1 section is starting to boom?<br/><br/>No idea why I did the math on this, but in the casual section, you have an 80% chance of your RP succeeding and at least moving past the interest check phase. How long it lasts past that is up to the GM and RPers, although casual roleplays inevitably die out faster than advanced section stuff.<br/><br/>With advanced roleplays, only 70% of roleplays move on from interest checks. While you could say this is just a testimony of how only good roleplays are able to get through, let's keep in mind the fact that most of that 70% is roleplays where everyone takes an incredibly long time to post, and everyone posts either dank memes in the OOC, or they're all going ""whose turn is it? Whose turn is it?"" And not even really interacting with each other.<br/><br/>No spoilers eh? Obi-wan is Ben Kenobi. <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/rfFWukr.gif""/><br/><br/>Yaaaaay!

I love to read, I like being able to influence what I read, and I'm a hopeless romantic. If you don't like doing even one of those things, VNs might not be for you. It's rare to find one that has absolutely no romance at all, and a majority of them have romance being the main theme. Even the so-called ""legendary"" Visual Novels still have major themes of romance, despite what the general consensus says.<br/>Saya no Uta is a horror VN, but one huge arc is your love story with the main heroine.<br/>Fate/Stay Night is an action VN, but one huge arc is falling in love with your chosen partner.<br/><br/>So you pretty much need to be comfortable with three things:<br/><br/>1. Reading, a lot, and keeping all that you've read in your memory to pull up in later situations.<br/><br/>2. Influencing stories. Options will pop up that give you an option to change the story for better or for worse, this is where your reading knowledge comes in. <br/><br/>3. Romance. If you don't like romance, nor are romantic in the slightest, the vast majority of VNs won't appeal to you at all. I am sadly a huge sucker for romance, so I gravitate to VNs like they're giant planets.<br/><br/>The closest video game series I can say that compares to a VN experience is the Pheonix Wright series, but that's stretching it really, really far. Mostly because it's argued that simply picking dialogue options does not mean ""gameplay,"" and Pheonix Wright does far more than simply picking dialogue options.</div>"

Look them up. I guess they'd be considered 'graphic novels' without the romance. They have The Walking Dead, Borderlands, Minecraft (Upcoming), Game of Thrones, Some game about fairytales. Albiet, I admit, I only played TWD, BL, and the first episode of te fairy tail one.</div>"

VNs normally have static images and environments that you can't move around in. It's like a picture book pretty much. Everything looks like this:<br/><br/>Image is put in a hider for space reasons.<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.gamemafia.pro/media//category/2/-/2-1024_4077.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/>Just static images with text, and that's it.<br/><br/>You get the uncommon fancy image, or maybe animation every now and then, but this is what most VNs look like. Also, they usually have voice acting, though some won't.<br/><br/>There aren't any 3D environments, there's no exploration, there's no ""actual gameplay"" because you don't even directly control the main character. It's just something you read, and get to make decisions on.<br/><br/>I honestly prefer this simplistic style, because the whole point of a VN is enjoying the story. You don't have to be on guard for random QTEs, nor do you have a limited amount of time to select an option.<br/><br/> You go at your own pace, at your own leisure, and in a way, I do enjoy that more than video games with ""oh man, there are zombies, and you have a split-second to decide who you're going to save."" Granted, I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but I'm showing you how it's different from the average Telltale game. You can enjoy QTEs and rushed selections as much as you want, but those frankly aren't for me.<br/><br/>I went way off topic lol. This is what happens when I talk about something that I have a passion for I guess, haha. Or when I go a long time without doing anything IC.</div>"

Since I'm Co-GM, I could just take over... Kidding of course, considering I have no idea how far ahead Tek has planned in terms of plot. I'd imagine he doesn't plan much too far though, mostly because any decision that our characters make can drastically change the course of everything. <br/><br/>That's kind of the crux of Forum RPs, and I think it's why less and less people want to make them. You have to plan a lot, and at the same time, very little. It's part of the reason I haven't made an RP in a long while. Open-ended RPs probably benefit a lot from this. The ending is kind of made by the RPers rather than the GM, which makes it feel a little more special. By open-ended I mean, ""your thrust into a world of fantasy and magic. Here are the different empires, kingdoms, and how they interact with each other. Here's also a basic plot to get it all kick-started, and we can take it from there.""<br/><br/> Sadly, it's the RPs with limitless potential that die out the quickest. I'm fairly sure I've only ever completed 3 out of the 30+ RPs I've ever been in. A success rate of 10% is kind of saddening, but it's just how role players are these days. They don't commit half as much as they used to. I feel like this is what's going to kill forum role playing.<br/><br/>I e-mailed Fray, and as it turns out, she's done with the site, (if it wasn't obvious already) so can we please move on? Please?

For short swords though, I've always preferred the Russian Kindjal:<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/b505/prepperaussie/kindjal_zpscf64a0da.jpg~original""/></div></div><br/><br/>Or the Falcata:<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h454/iofenix/falcata1_212.jpg~original""/></div></div><br/><br/>Which is my personal favorite because it looks a lot like an umbrella when it's sheathed. The only problem with the falcata is the fact that it's weighted for chopping and that's it. Stabbing, slicing, and cutting are all out of the question because the weighting won't allow it. You risk breaking the sword doing it any other way than chopping.<br/><br/>But, those two probably wouldn't fit with the theme of Japan, so maybe not. I guess that's up to you.<br/><br/>I just found what those magnums reminded me of. Bayonetta's guns.<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/bayonetta/images/f/fe/ScarboroughFair.png/revision/latest?cb=20110828234824""/></div></div></div>"

I'm okay with the group size we have by the way. I'd like for there to be maybe 1 or 2 more people, but this group size is okay for the most part. 4 tends to be the ideal in most RPs anyway. Unless it's an arena, in which case 10 or more is the ideal number.<br/><br/>If this were the old guild, usually you would send a PM to people you see viewing and ask if they're interested.

Mimic's weird though, really weird. I'm not sure I would count him really male. Hmm, I actually want to RP him before his transformation in some RP, that would be awesome!

The remnants of that are going to die with Keima and Nu of course in the other RP.<br/><br/>Here, Kurano is only bad at one major aspect, and that's fighting. He's a smooth talker when he wants to be, and agile to boot, as well as being fantastically smart. His only problem is really strength-wise, and the fact that a lack of nicotine can make him go crazy if he's in a stressful situation. He's also quick to anger as well, and doesn't exactly like authoritative figures, which is something he developed because of studying law and his uncle.<br/><br/>So all and all, Kurano is one of my more original characters I've made, who doesn't follow the pattern of either being bad at everything, or being good at everything. <br/><br/>Also, this mimic character sounds a lot like one of those godforsaken fake treasure chests from final fantasy 9. <br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""I hate these guys"" type=""button"">I hate these guys [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121126001841/finalfantasy/images/e/e9/Mimic-ffix.png""/></div></div><br/><br/>Or this seriously stupid boss from Final Fantasy 4.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Famed Mimic Gogo"" type=""button"">Famed Mimic Gogo [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130626070817/finalfantasy/images/6/65/Famed_Mimic_Gogo.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/>The trick to beating him was literally standing there for 10 minutes not doing anything, and he would then kill himself.

""Oh man, I love this RP; it's amazing. Can I get your guys's autographs or something?

Somewhere a bit closer to yellow than your average caucasian man.<br/>-Has a thick, square beard that traces his jawline and extends it outwards an inch and a half in every direction. Same salt and pepper color as his hair.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character Type:</span> Bridging Intermediate and High, heavily charge reliant.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> Pundambayans are a descendant race of a massive group of demigods, their biology is effectively as advanced as it can get. The unfortunate downside is their lack of evolutionary potential. Their muscle structure is less primative and more tightly packed, making the larger ones a huge threat. And that's just what Kanitah is. Kanitah looks like a lumberjack took up the hobby of also being a body builder. <br/><br/>Though he's getting along in years Kanitah's physical fitness has always been a prime concern. Daily strength training and vitamin supplements keep him at his physical peak. The top of his head is covered in unkempt salt and pepper hair and it's contrasted with a thick and bushy beard, the damn thing is so thick that you could punch it and your fist might get stuck. That's happened before. His mustache is so well tamed that you could hit it with a hammer and it would pop back into shape before you withdrew the weapon.<br/><br/>Kanitah's got a sense of importance about him. As though he's destined for even greater things. Appropriately he carries himself like a really big man, chest out and chin up. His arms constantly swing as he walks, hoisting them unnecessarily high with every swing. <br/><br/>He dresses simply, wearing long sleeved collared button up shirts and pants that fit nicely. He does not wear fancy clothes. He does not dress in body armor. He does not wear anything that would suggest that he's anything more than the ordinary man.<br/><br/>Underneath his clothing is a Herculean form, a body that looks chiseled from stone. It's actually not made of stone, he's just incredibly fit. He would look good standing beside a young Lou Ferrigno. On his back are four scars that are placed just above and below vital organs, they appear to be remnants of old wounds from battles long since ended. From chest to toe he's riddled with finely shaped hair. If you're not catching it, he loves to shape his hair. Like everywhere. <br/><br/>After returning from the Multiverse, he had numerous reconstructive surgeries. These proved to be effective at returning him to a natural appearance, however it left numerous scars on him. Across his chest, stomach, face, and arms. These were from the most serious of his wounds, left behind by combat. They don't inhibit his movement, but they are quite visible. One such scar runs the entire length of the left half of his head. From eyebrow to ear. The hair that was once on his chest no longer grows there, the burns from his encounter in the Multiverse left it impossible to grow chest hair.<br/><br/>To be honest, on more than one occasion he's been called cartoonish and overly masculine. These are true in many ways, and yet they belie something more. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality Description:</span> From a young age Kanitah has seen the future as a bright and vibrant place, full of possibility and potential. His dreams of a better world and a bright future have not waned as the years have passed. Though he has become a bit more serious as time has gone by, learning that not everything is going to go his way, but still withholding a hope for the future.<br/><br/>At the current time he's as heroic as one can possibly be, seriously, he's the kind of hero who will lay down his life for you twice. If at all possible. Pundambayan society is very social, significantly more social than humans. If  you could believe it. They're a talkative race, using much longer words for names and conversation. The antisocial are pariahs among Pundambayan society, simply because of how conversation heavy they are.<br/><br/>Kanitah is an absurdly cheerful individual, no matter how great the hardship he faces he will always take it in stride. Even with his daughter missing he still enjoys a good fight and adventure. Though in recent years he has taken to drinking, <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Skills, Powers and Abilities:</span><br/>-Darligrov:  One of the many words of power passed down the great families of Pundambaya. Passed down from their demigod ancestors, these words are a fraction of their power. Preserved in their bloodline since the beginning. Every word posesses great power, and of the great families the Ayna line is blessed with (contestably) the strongest word of power. Darligrov is the word of force.<br/><br/>It draws from the innumerable wells of power in the multiverse, constantly absorbing them into itself to maintain a steady flow of power. Including, but not limited to; Mana, Ki, Chi, Laylines, Aether, Natural Energy, Radiation, and Willpower. This passive draw allows Darligrov's power to never waiver, no matter how much duress and exhaustion Kanitah himself faces. This keeps its multplication power at a constant level, never dropping below what it began at. <br/><br/>The primary ability of Darligrov is force multiplication, each ring around each part of his body multiplies the force behind each strike. Each ring further increases the force behind each strike, allowing him to hit with tremendous force without being that strong. <br/><br/>It bathes him in a calm auburn rings of light, they wrap around his body's strike zones. The list of striking zones and the number of rings are listed as follows; head(2), shoulders(4), elbows(4), hands(4), forearms(4), knees(4), feet(4), and chest(2). <br/><br/>The multiplication formula is as follows;<br/>No Rings = Force of 1 Strike<br/>One Ring = Force of 2 Strikes<br/>Two Rings = Force of 3 Strikes<br/><br/>The secondary ability of Darligrov is attributed to its divine, as opposed to occult, nature. Anyone deemed unjust by Kanitah's perspective are burned by the rings, this burning sensation has been described as: ""Dipping your hand in acid."" And it is caustic enough to leave permanent scars on your body if left in place long enough. <br/><br/>The third and final ability of Darligrov is a side effect of it being made from pure energy. Any other form of energy that connects with the rings is interupted as though it had struck a solid object. However, due to each ring only having a width of 4 centimeters, it does not protect against anything particularly hefty.<br/><br/>Darligrov's multiplication of force also has some other side effects, such as multiplication of speed, tossing strength, and grip strength. As the effects of Darligrov are instant, rather than sustained, his grip and tossing strength are only momentary boosts. When he grabs an object and lifts upwards he can throw objects that he could never naturally lift. As well, when he grabs something he can apply force to it greater than his natural grip strength. Finally, each ring amplifies how quickly he moves by increasing his stride and the force behind each step. The more rings he has on his feet, the faster he can move.<br/><br/>Kanitah can only move 4 rings at a time, and he must move them with his hands. He cannot will them to be moved. <br/><br/>- Peak Pundambayan Biology: Pundambayans are among the hardiest races in the known universe, intentionally putting their young through hardship from the moment of birth to sexual maturity. Born and raised on Pundambaya One, a planet with 5 Earth Gravities, they are naturally stronger than any human could possibly be. Those who enlist in the military at the age of 14 are sent off to Pundambaya 3, a planet wth 15 Earth Gravities. This hardens their bodies, making them stronger and faster than they would be naturally. Pundambaya 3 is a harsh, barely habitable planet. The beasts on Pundambaya 3 would be deemed monsters by humans, and Pundambayan soldiers are trained to hunt them until they can square off with them one on one. Kanitah enlisted in the military at the age of 14 and went through standard military training. <br/><br/>Increased Strength: Each Pundambayan soldier has a natural lifting strength of 10 tons, and a pushing force of 13 tons. Kanitah is above that, at 13 tons lifting strength and a pushing force of 15 tons. His punches carry enough force to send cars flying and tear humans in half. In full sprint he could strike a train hard enough to derail a train. <br/><br/>Enhanced Speed: On a planet with 1 Earth Gravity he is capable of 60 - 70 mph running speed with ease. Traveling a mile a minute in a literal sense. In full sprint he can reach up to 96 mph. <br/><br/>Highly Resilliant Skin: His exposure to high gravity, high temperature, and hostile environments have forged his skin to the tensile strength of reinforced leather. This llows for resistance to bladed weapons, concussive tools, heat, and firearms. As the do not easily break his tough but pliable hide.<br/><br/>Extended Jump: Near capable of leaping tall buildings in a single bound. A jump in a single Earth Gravity is 28 feet vertical and 64 feet horizontal from a standing posture. From a running start he can jump about 180 feet in a straight line. <br/><br/>High Bone Density: Pundambayan bones are stronger than those of any human, but like all Soldiers of Pundambaya Kanitah has much stronger bones than average Pundambayans. His bones are comparable in density to the bones of a Rhinoceros. <br/><br/>Hyper Acute Senses: In a hyper gravity world sound, light, smell, and all that travel much slower. When transitioned to an Earth Gravity world they face sensory overload, however, after the overload has passed their senses are sharper and they can smell, see,  and hear farther and faster. About 10x as well as a human being. This includes his reaction speed, his body can react quicker than he can run. Having a reaction time of 10 milliseconds, allowing him to react naturally to hypersonic movements.<br/><br/>-Military Combat Specialization: A full battery of martial arts, strength, and equipment training have given him the skills necessary to utilize any weapon to his advantage. Including his own body. Trained in two martial arts, he has formed a unique fighting style that is equal parts brutality and control, making every single punch count. Along with proficiency with any weapon in his hands, this makes him a deadly foe both armed and unarmed. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character Equipment:</span><br/>The Word Engine, Version 2: The original word engine was clunky box strapped to Kanitah's back, when his daughter Bita stole it to create hero wn, the prototype that was made proved to be much lighter and more convenient over all. Now it is a shoulder and upper back mounted. The machine still has the same effect as the original. Upon activation, after a short preparation time. This machine adds 1 ring to every strike zone, adding in another multiplication to his force. The number of rings are as follows; head(3), shoulders(6), elbows(6), hands(6), forearms(6), knees(6), feet(6), and chest(3). <br/><br/>The Engine draws power from a hyper dense crystal that passively absorbs ambient mystical energy from the surrounding area. In much the same way as the word of power itself does. The machine draws about half as much power as Darligrov itself does. It then feeds this power into Kanitah directly, as well as enhancing his physical form with cybernetics. <br/><br/>The transformation takes 2 turns, locking Kanitah in place for those two turns. Leaving him open to attack.<br/><br/>As well, it increases his natural abilities three fold with the cybernetic enhancements.<br/><br/>-Strength: Goes from 13 tons lifting weight to 39 tons.<br/>-Speed: Goes from 60-70 mph running speed to 180-210 mph running speed. With a sprinting speed of 260mph.<br/>-Durability: The same as his previous durability, though enhanced by cables of steel wrapped around his muscle. Buried just underneath his skin.<br/><br/>The enhancements given by the machine takes 2 turns to take hold. This cannot be interupted, however, while the enhancements are taking hold he is forced to remain stationary. As moving causes indescribable pain. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Kanitah Noraha Ayna, the Hero of Pundambaya. A war hero from the bloodline of Ayna with the word Darligrov at his disposal. Born in a small settlement to the north on Pundambaya 1, he was raised on a farm and told that one day he'd be a big strong man. A man who children would look up to in awe, a hero to all and friend to some. Kanitah's youth was full of excitement and adventure, as Pundambaya 2 is not a densely populated planet there is much in the way of property to explore. In his youth he raised livestock during the day and adventured in the night. He hunted with his father who taught him how to use the word of power properly. His mother taught him how to take care of himself and to always look his best. <br/><br/>When he turned 14 he enlisted in the Pundambayan Primary Military, he said his goodbyes to his parents who returned to Pundambaya 2 and he was shipped off to Pundambaya 3 for his training. Harsh environments, exposure to the blistering hot twin suns, violent beasts, and constantly training his body. Pundambaya 3 has a mortality rate of 20% for all who train there, the 80% who return are the most hardened warriors in the known universe. Standard training on Pundambaya 3 always includes a bare necessities wilderness survival portion. For one year they are given nothing but a knfe and they are sent into the wilderness. They must survive for one year, learning how to scavenge and hunt for food. Learning how to improvise shelter or survive without it, some have easy times. Kanitah, however, did not.<br/><br/>Along the equator of Pundambaya 3 is a harsh wasteland area, completely worthless for terraforming or even growing food. This is the location that Kanitah chose for his survival. Why? Kanitah was raised on a farm, he had some of that down home confidence. And with Darligrov at his disposal he was more than fit to survive that sort of wilderness.<br/><br/>At least he thought it would be easy.<br/><br/>It was a year of hell, he nearly succumbed to; Dehydration, Starvation, Wildlife, Heatstroke, Exhaustion, and any number of environmental hazards. But when one year ended he returned to his comrads in arms, stronger than most of them and with a much bigger reward on his plate. For surviving longer than some had in less harsh environments, Kanitah was rewarded with high praise and a decent rank when they finally graduated from training at age 19.<br/><br/>After a Military Career of 3 consecutive deployments, he finally shipped to Pundambaya 1 at the age of 31. (Each deployment being 4 years long.) He took a wife, Tora Soba Stroma. Another holder of a word of power, from the great family of Stroma. They had a daughter, an inheritor of the Stroma family word. And then two sons, an inheritor of the Ayna family word and one with no inheritance. As only one from every generation may hold a word of power. <br/><br/>Kanitah left home at 37 to adventure again, feeling unfulfilled with a normal life of business and the sort. He was a ship hopper, traveling from trade ship to trade ship. Along his journies he stumbled upon an elderly woman with an obsession for science. She was attacked by a band of pirates who wished to steal her technology to steal better stuff, and then sell it. Pirates are kind of stupid, no matter if they're in the sea or in the stars. Kanitah fought them off, being forced to use his word of power in the ensuing chaos.<br/><br/>For saving her life, the elderly woman offered him a reward. It took her a while to figure out how it worked, and it took even longer to figure out how to amplify it, but eventually she created the Word Engine. She gave it to Kanitah as a gift, they parted happily and Kanitah returned home after 3 years out in the stars. The Pundambayan returned home to his family, joyous greetings from his now 6 year old daughter and 4 year old sons, as well as his wife. They lived happiy for another year, until Pundambaya was attacked by the Ku-Ni-Tin Divine Light Armada. <br/><br/>The Ku-Ni-Tins had been trying to negotiate Pundambaya's surrender, commanding them to be assimilated into their coalition of species. They had already attacked Pundambaya 1 when they arrived on Pundambaya 2. Word only reached Pundambaya 2 after the invasion had started. The armies of Pundambaya and the great families pushed back against the invading fleet. <br/><br/>The invaders were well equipped, ruthless, and they killed many Pundambayans. Leaving many orphans in their wake.<br/><br/>Kanitah refused to sit by while his people were being slaughtered, and even though he was retired he moved to the front lines. Kanitah donned the Word Engine for the first time, letting it drive itself into his body. It changed him, making him stronger and faster. It felt astounding after the pain had subsided. When he activated Darligrov, the power that washed over him was sublime. The same feeling that he felt when he first became a man came upon him in waves, yes, became a man in that way. <br/><br/>Kanitah adjusted his rings, giving himself the most impact and speed that he possibly could. Kanitah rushed headlong into battle, throwing himself into the ranks of marching soldiers. Their power armor crumpled beneath his fist, their ranks thinned rapidly as he cleaved a path through their lines like Moses parting the Red Sea. After three solid days of fighting, Kanitah had pushed their lines back several miles. <br/><br/>The Pundambayan Military was able to counterattack because of his charge, and shortly afterwards they had driven the Ku-Ni-Tin off of their planets. Kanitah was found unconscious, wartorn, dying, and covered in blood. His own and his enemies. After a week of medical treatment he woke up in the hospital, surrounded by family and friends. When he left the hospital after a month of care, he was greeted by countless fans. <br/><br/>Kanitah was regailed as a hero, singlehandedly turning the tide of the war with his incredible abilities. He was showered in riches and fame, even taking a hobby of vigilantism from time to time to keep up his public image of heroism. Kanitah was truly happy, he had become what his Mother always told him he would be. <br/><br/>There were hard times, sometimes the great families would feud. Sometimes the weilders of the ancient Pundambayan relics would wreak havoc. But Kanitah enjoyed himself during this time. <br/><br/>After a few years he started adventuring again, leaving his family behind to learn to be themselves without being forced to live in his image. He started adventuring the universe, and sometimes accidentally hopping the multiverse. In one such forray at the age of 52 he fought against a powerful warrior who left him wounded on a backwoods planet in the middle of nowhere. <br/><br/>Kanitah made it home to Pundambaya where he was treated for his wounds, stayed with his family for a time.<br/><br/>During this time, his daughter Bita stole the Word Engine. She was intending to use it to seek revenge on the man who hurt her father, she took it to various engineers and scientists who created two new versions. She left Pundambaya with the most efficient verson, Kanitah was forced to take the less efficient version for himself to find his daughter and bring her back home.<br/><br/>Now, four years later he still doesn't know where his daughter is. Kanitah searches the cosmos for his daughter in the desperate hope he will find her and bring her home.</div></div></div>"

It allows for increased flexibility, with little cost to protection. It covers his entire body relatively closely, although the gauntlets have been lost, the collar in the picture is relatively accurate except closer to his neck and slightly lower down. However, he lost his helm in his fall, and his armour is in a state of disrepair. After ‘joining’ the Angar-Ryllans they provided him with an upgrade, augmenting his armour to protect him from powerful shots. It deflects cuts from steel weaponry and most human firearms, at anything below T2 he’s almost invulnerable. Interestingly its blunt attacks which are most effective against the armour, because it’s the nature of ‘advanced’ factions to believe that blunt attacks are the least likely they’re to face. They also kindly gave him some gloves to match, which fortunately do not affect his energy draining abilities because at such proximity it doesn’t really matter. They have similar properties to the rest of his armour. <br/><br/>Pre-Antire’s destruction<br/><br/>[Low] Skills: Advanced military training, in the weaponry of the Fireen. This includes futuristic and well balanced swords maces and spears. As well as a host of other weaponry, including some projectile weapons like crossbows.

Their weaponry resembled archaic and medieval tools of warfare, yet they have been developed with a significantly more dangerous design.<br/><br/>Antire was a relatively peaceful planet, with the Fireen able to work past their differences through the applications of energy flow. Masters of the technique came together, and began teaching members of all nations, allowing a sense of cooperation to spread through Antire. It couldn’t have come close enough, as war was threatening to pull everything they had worked for apart. <br/><br/>However, not much more than one hundred years after the formation of the Energy centre, the Fireen’s peaceful existence came to an end. The two sides of the centre drove opposing nations to war, for some believed the gift of energy manipulation, or Antireen Control as it was known to them, was an advantage that should be pressed in war. While others saw the shielding of others and the healing of the injured and sick as a more noble pursuit. <br/><br/>Although the Fireen worked past their differences more often than they came to conflict, the wars waged were significantly more brutal than earths own. Cities would fall, families would be torn apart, and hundreds would die for a cause they did not agree with or even fully understand. <br/><br/>As the war faced its closing months, the victors, who of course were in favour of aggressive use of Antireen Control, began to spend special units in to investigate causes of concern or interest. One such location was found deep within enemy territory, and believed to be a new kind of projectile energy weapon, a last ditch attempt by the ‘Shielders’ as it were. However, the group discovered a waking entity beyond their comprehension. Beyond that, nothingness, whatever Antire was, or may have been was wiped away. The moments where they first came into contact with a being not of their world, was one of the last moments on Antire, before the entire world was destroyed in a cataclysmic blast.<br/><br/>Manadar Rane<br/>Manadar’s part in the events which unfolded, in the meeting which spelled Antire and the Fireen’s doom, was a small one. He was little more than a pawn, an insignificant soldier following orders like the rest. <br/><br/>The day had dawned like any other; he had woken to the sound of his communicator buzzing. Smiled at the message his mother had left. His smile had grown even broader when he read the message his pregnant fiancé had left. When he had looked outside, his smile dropped from his face as he stared out into the night. Drawn back into remembering what was ahead of him, one more night op, another game of dice with death. <br/><br/>Even in the meagre glow of energy lamps, the base had sprawled out in front of him, evidently visible. They were still in ‘Aggressors’ territory, he had reminded himself, so safety was ensured. The ‘Shielders’ wouldn’t dare to attack here. Regardless of how obvious they had made their position, and their intentions.<br/><br/>Still, the worry did not carry over to the mission itself; his team were one of the best the Fireen had to offer, the best technology, the best training. He just hoped he didn’t let the team down. Damn, but he had worried about that mission, as if somehow he knew what was in store, yet he would never have guessed exactly what would transpire in ‘Shielder’ territory.<br/><br/>Outfitted in customary spec-ops armour, which could basically be described as futuristic mail with a lightweight but durable design, and his favourite weapon a four and a half foot buster sword, lined with energy for cutting through armoured targets, he set off. His team had tracked the energy signature for a short while, before they started to feel its effects. Dulled senses, fatigue, one of the group had fallen to the ground completely drained. Manadar had some training in this respect, his father being a keen practitioner of Antireen shielding, so when the draining effects hit him he blocked them out. With some effort and loss of concentration, albeit. <br/><br/>It had been this loss of concentration which had allowed him to fall into a trap, forced down the hill tops beating at his aggressor. They had separated half way down, his attacker colliding into a tree with a sickening thud. Not particularly pleasant, but it hardly bothered Manadar as he struggled to control his descent.<br/><br/>He was unsure of how far he had fallen, eventually the ground around him became loose and gritty, like dirt or sand. He had found himself falling into the dark…<br/><br/>When he had dragged himself to his feet, he had felt himself drawn further into the narrow cave system he had found himself in. Curiously, he had activated the lighting system and followed the energy signature deep into the bowels of the earth. <br/><br/>Something incomprehensible awaited him, it seemed to flood his mind with a pure bright light, and then the earth was torn asunder and he remembered nothing more.<br/><br/>He found himself spaced… drifting lifelessly in the black abyss. When his eyes flickered open, a booming voice echoed in the vaults of his mind, ‘I AM THE VOID. YOU ARE MY FURY.’<br/><br/>He had no idea how long he spent in space… his eyes seeing only the face of the being which destroyed his planet. Placed there by the vengeful entity whose power he inherited. His anger grew, but he could do nothing. Eventually he drifted too close to a star and absorbed some of its power. He felt himself growing inside. However this time… the disjunction did not come. He grew mad in the eternal darkness, losing himself, becoming the real Fury.<br/><br/>Post-Antire’s destruction<br/><br/>Although the skills from his past life remained the same, some key additions were made from the power of the Void. Manadar, or Fury as he was now known, has two base forms/fighting styles. They are dubbed ‘Cold Fury’ and ‘Unbridled Fury’.<br/><br/>Cold Fury<br/><br/>Attributes<br/><br/>[High] Immortality (Agelessness, but also with the ability to reform from all but the most decisive of deaths, this also allows him to heal relatively quickly at a passive rate, by sacrificing energy for the cause.)<br/><br/>[Intermediate]Strength: Roughly able to lift 10 tonnes of weight.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Speed: 100mph max speed, naturally.<br/><br/>[Low] Reflexes 2X natural. (When concentrating he can react at twice the speed possible for a human.)<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Durability/Endurance: His body is unnaturally durable by any standards, no human could injure him through physical force, though more powerful gunshot could pierce the skin, and explosives tend to knock him back, but still scorch. <br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Energy Flow – Allows for fine manipulation of energy, which comes from the stockpile within his body. He can use Energy Flow to spot otherwise hidden opponents, within reason, and draw on his other powers. Energy Flow, and embracing the Void, has also given him the ability to manipulate energy around his body, strengthening certain areas, fighting off disease and infection/poison as well as a multitude of other magical effects, and allowing him to increase his maximum speed and strength at the cost of a lot of energy. None of these are perfect, but it’s difficult to defeat him easily with anything other than a proper scrap.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Energy shielding – Fury relies on energy to shield himself from most forms of harm, which can be bolstered by charge. It can be pierced most easily at melee range, which suits him fine. It’s distorting to magical effects which aren’t physical in nature, but not able to completely block them out.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Energy throw – Basically forces energy in a direction, could be in the form of a push or even as a shield.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Telekinesis - Can be used to manipulate objects within half his physical lift range. Requires concentration and is ineffective against living opponents. <br/><br/>[Intermediate]Energy spear – Similar to energy throw, but a more concentrated and lethal technique which manifests itself in a blue spear like shape visible to the human eye. He can launch it forward, with enough force to cut through steel. But he cannot change its direction mid-flight. It flies at a speed roughly the same as a bullet fired from a modern day pistol. Its power is proportional to charge.<br/><br/>[Intermediate]Energy Disc – A slicing crescent of energy, similar to the spear except it’s a crescent and that it flies slower, deals less damage on contact, but can be controlled mid-flight within a 20 metre radius.<br/><br/>[High]Energy Sink – Periodically restores his energy by absorbing it from the area around him. This can affect opponents to some degree, if they have no/rudimentary shielding. The draining ability is calculated through a numbers system. It would start at a default of 5% in Unbridled fury, and 3% in Cold Fury. Then, take away the opponents Tier/Defences, say a tier 6. Leaving him with -1 in unbridled fury in this example. Then, add on my characters own tier, in this case 5. Giving me a grand total of 4% energy drain. Through physical contact this energy is taken every second, so after five seconds you will have lost 20% of your total energy. (However, it must be sustained, blows do not count towards this total) And in vicinity draining. (Which works at the same rate in a 20 meter radius, regardless of if the opponent is 20 or 5 meters away, the percentage of energy drained is taken periodically, every 10 or so seconds.)<br/><br/>To account for this powerful passive advantage, Fury is always losing energy, At a 1% rate of loss every ten seconds in cold fury, and five percent in unbridled fury. Terrains such as grassland/areas with high life etc reduce this loss to half.)<br/><br/>[High] Energy Sink – Contact – If Fury establishes direct contact with his opponent, say grasping them round the neck, the energy absorption is X10 and can force its way through all but the most advanced shields. Within thirty seconds, the opponent would be completely fatigued. Within a minute, dead. Having more or less energy stored in your body does not effect this in anyway, as more energy = more absorbed due to less energy resistance, less energy = less absorbed.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Flight – Fury can fly using his energy as a propulsion system, he can reach speeds of up to 150 mph.<br/><br/>Unbridled Fury<br/><br/>Attributes<br/><br/>[High] Immortality<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Energy seal: Significant wounds are plugged with energy, until they eventually heal given enough time and energy. This is a lot faster in combat, especially in Unbridled Fury, but also takes place at a lesser rate in his ‘reverted’ form.<br/><br/>[High] Strength: Fury’s madness means that when he enters the unbridled stage, his strength now multiplies significantly, to accommodate for his lack of mental capacity. Beginning at a cool 50 tonnes of weight (through rapid energy loss, as a secondary flaw.) he can steadily increase his strength to a breaking point of roughly 100 tonnes, while his body strengthens itself with energy to accommodate. The main down-side to this is within a minute of activating such strength he has no energy left to fight with, causing a rapid degradation of strength and a reversion to cold fury, or death, if the fight is still on. <br/><br/>[Intermediate] Speed: His speed is the same, 100 mph, however he’s more likely to waste energy augmenting it at this point. His max realistic speed is only 200 mph though.<br/><br/>[Intermediate] Reflexes: Fury sees in energy in his mad unbridled stage, so he can be faster than usual, but also blinded by his own anger. <br/><br/>[High] Durability/Endurance: Fury is at his most formidable when in Unbridled Fury, fortunately his body strengthens itself impressively. With massive energy shielding (at the cost of energy, hence why this stage is so unpredicatable.) he can make himself invulnerable to nearly every weapon currently at humanity’s disposal, even a nuclear blast could be survived, if at least half a mile from the epic-centre. Breaking down the shields is tough, but because of the finite nature of his energy reservoir in this form many intermediate attacks are more effective than one big attack. He could in theory be worn down by a few clips from a machine gun for example.<br/><br/>[High] Abilities: Forceful Energy Flow – Allows for more force to be applied in energy techniques, at the cost of fine control and at lower energy efficiency. (Basically he loses energy at a faster rate)<br/><br/>[High] Energy crush: Throws around massive amounts of energy, rather than what would be the equivalent of a forceful push, this attack now becomes more akin to being hit with a Boeing 747.<br/><br/>[High] Energy skin: Though not in any way conscious, Fury leaks energy at such a dangerous rate that he actually forms a skin-like shield around himself, which protects him from most ranged and magical threats to an extent. It grows thicker and stronger the longer the fight goes on/longer he goes without taking hits, but it can’t really be bolstered consciously. <br/><br/>[High] Macrokinesis: Similar to telekinesis, except with no fine control. Only large objects with massive energy consumption and forceful attacks, he can lift any object at his maximum physical lift in this stage.<br/><br/>[High] Energy Blast: (Dare I say Kamehameha?) Basically a huge wave of energy blasted from his hands. Charges increase force. <br/><br/>[High] Energy sink: The energy fails to cover his outward energy loss, however if contact is establishes the energy draining effects X10 passive.<br/><br/>[High]Martial Force: Imbues melee hits with pure unbridled energy and force, doubling the force of any hits which land, so if he hits you in this stage its more akin to being hit by someone with twice his strength. This doesn’t allow him to lift anymore though, because that would be too costly in energy.<br/><br/>[High]Power Burst: Costly energy nova, causes a wave of force to burst out from himself in a circle. Useful for taking down zerging opponents in one blast. Leaves him wasted, and reverts him to Cold Fury.<br/><br/>Flight: (Same as above)<br/><br/>[High] The Void<br/><br/>The Void is a powerful energy destroying Entity which exists within Fury. It has broken down his will and replaced it with its own, seeking only revenge for its destruction and subsequent imprisonment within the Fireen. Its anger is directed at Skallagrim specifically, and it will stop at nothing to destroy him and his entire race.<br/><br/>It allows Fury to do most of the energy manipulating things he does, but also provides him with a powerful passive advantage. His mind is almost entirely consumed by the Void, and so any would be physic attackers get a nasty surprise. Though someone smart enough could possibly barter with the Void, to avoid having to fight its Vessel.</div></div></div>"

He's listening to music two generations too young for him to be listening to, and enjoying every second of it. The old man's name is Kanitah, and he's taking a short break on a backwoods planet in the middle of bumfuck nowhere in space. After his past expedition into the multiverse, Kanitah's daughter fled from home with a powerful weapon in hand, the old man had to give chase. Otherwise his wife would never let him hear the end of it, so for the past year or so, he's been looking for her. Trying his best to catch her before she does something reckless and borderline suicidal. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Like her Father.</span></div><br/><br/>Kanitah, only three years after the rather exhausting venture into the Multiverse, had managed to recover fully from his injuries. The scars that had once impeded his movement and caused him pain now just an unfortunate stain on his <span class=""bb-i"">'perfect'</span> aesthetic. On this little planet in bumfuck nowhere, he realized something. That he had been fighting for pretty much his whole life, and honestly, he didn't even regret it. These quiet moments alone with his thoughts are perfect, but the rush of battle is where a true man finds peace. <br/><br/>Defeating a powerful foe who stands in your way, or being the powerful foe standing in someone else's way. Either path is good, a challenge of any kind will always make the blood run hot in your veins. <br/><br/>The wind blew through his hair as the music banged out in his ears, the strange alien grass tickling at his exposed calves. (He had rolled his pant-legs and sleeves up to get comfortable while he rests.) Not a care in the world, aside from the fate of his daughter, but some slight tingle at the back of his neck kept bugging him. <br/><br/>Not a chance in the world that something could concievably go wrong in such an obscure little rock in space, but even so, the feeling just wouldn't stop bugging him.</div>"

Deathly silence filled the room, permeated only by shuffling feet and awkward stares at anything but the two involved in the confrontation.<br/><br/>“Make time.” His voice, oddly accentuated by something deeper and darker than itself, rang out across the populated bridge. The commander looked down on Fury, his face mottling red with extreme anger at his impudence, delivering orders on his ship?<br/><br/>“We don’t have additional time to fulfil your petty vendettas soldier, back to your post.” The commander was dismissive of the Fireen warrior known as Fury, he should have been more wary of the burning rage hidden behind his pale blue eyes.<br/><br/>The blast of energy shook the bridge and sent the commander sprawling, two armed guards following suit as they tried to draw on the Fireen whose hands were still splayed from his act of aggression. He moved forward with deadly intent, his hands now bunched into fists.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Two days later</span></span><br/><br/>Fury dived from the empty evac station into the void of space, his body unperturbed by the conditions as he used energy to propel himself towards his target.

As was usual he created a great deal of sound and drilled his own small crater into the ground on landing, something which was growing to become his trademark. His foe was close, he had sensed him as he dropped down, probably within eye-sight now and Kanitah was sure to know Fury had arrived.<br/><br/>Fury jumped out of the crater and strode towards Kanitah in his Antireen mail, one hand raised in challenge as he roared.<br/><br/>“WE HAVE UNFINISHED BUSINESS YOU AND I!” <br/></div>"

However, his music was far too loud. It wasn't until the eruption of debris and explosive boom threw his earbuds out that he noticed something was amiss. Disbelief and a deep seated fear flooded through his body, the music still quite audible despite the buds no longer in his ears. With one hand he cut the music off and slid a small plate and another bud into his ear. (A translator, because Pundambayans don't naturally speak English.) As the dust began to settle a far too familiar form emerged, Kanitah's eyes widened and the reflection of his old foe showed in his glossy orange eyes. <span class=""bb-i"">By the All-Maker, this is about the last person I wanted to find out here.</span> <br/><br/>With a grunt and a shove, Kanitah stood up from his seated position. The sleeve on his left arm sliding down to his wrist while the other stayed in place. The dust hadn't fully settled yet, and that awful stink of ionized air burned at his nostrils. If he didn't know how unpredictable Fury was, he would have chanced a sneeze. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""You-""</font> The words began flowing from his mouth, out of sync with his lips. <font color=""#f26522"">""Of all the people that I could'a bumped into in the middle of nowhere.""</font> Kanitah raised his arm and accusingly pointed at Fury. <font color=""#f26522"">""It had to be you.

It was a question that actually resounded with him, and he was one seldom for deep thought or consideration of his actions. Why was he here, attempting to finish off an opponent he had barely wanted to fight in the first place nigh on three years ago?<br/><br/>The answer pulled at him within his soul, but he couldn’t face it, he never could. <br/><br/>“You may be in the habit of leaving your foes alive behind you where they can stab you in the back… but I prefer an ending to things.” Fury told him, his voice strong but no longer strained with shouting as they reached a more comfortable distance from each other. He couldn’t help but relive the strange situation that had drove them to fight in the first place so long ago in the twisting worlds of the multiverse. Fury had thought he had finally found his greatest foe, Skallagrim, but had instead locked on to some coward who had recently came into contact with the Dreamer. In his hasty attack he had rather understandably struck up their ire, and Kanitah had taken offence and launched an attack on Fury.<br/><br/>The fight had been brutal but by all accounts relatively short. Fury had gained an early upper-hand and dealt his foe a number of wounds, but the situation had rapidly spiralled out of control and the Fireen had left in embarrassment of the mess he had made. It irked him to this day that Kanitah had not rolled over and died when faced with his full strength, Fury had only ever lost a single fight, and drawing was almost as bitter.<br/><br/>Still, that hardly seemed like enough for him to beat the living crap out of the Angar-Ryllan commander to force him to take Fury to Kanitah when scouts had reported his presence on this rocky planet. It all seemed to be a little mad, damn why was this always happening?<br/><br/>“I used to be a soldier damnit.” Fury muttered to himself, staring at Kanitah and realising he had unconsciously drawn to a stop twenty feet from his foe, a pittance of distance to the superhuman opponents. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I am just looking for a fight… maybe there’s a part of me hoping every fight will be my last.<br/>Enough, your pity irritates me, don’t force me to seize your body, you are my vessel, never forget your place.<br/>So be it.</span><br/><br/>“Ready yourself, see if you fare any better than last time.” Fury settled with his left foot forward in a boxing stance, his eyes fixed on Kanitah, energy bunching up around his extremities as it always did when he prepared for war.<br/></div>"

Good or bad? Never too sure with Fury's sort, reminded him of the Ku-Ni-Tin general during the invasion of Pundambaya. But something about his words had brought up a question inside of his foe's heart, which meant that there was still something sensible inside of him. Honestly, now's about the perfect time for Kanitah's favorite kind of therapy. <span class=""bb-i"">If you can't talk your problems out, I'll beat them out of you.</span> With no words, Kanitah slid himself into a stance similar to Horse stance, however, less dipped. His legs are still splayed but less widely, a wider range of motion of legs is necessary at this level of combat.<br/><br/>With a silent grumble, Kanitah muttered a single word. <font color=""#f26522"">""Darligrov.""</font> Energy whipped around him in consecutive spirals, forming into rings around his body. A faint hum emitting from each of them as they spiraled into place. Kanitah knows Fury's stronger than he is, far stronger. The rings are really his only hope of fighting him. <br/><br/>His shoulders felt heavy as he remembered the device mounted to them, beneath his shirt. In their previous bout, he resorted to using its power to increase his own. At the heavy cost of nearly having a heart attack, Kanitah didn't want to use its power again. <span class=""bb-i"">No, I can fight him without it. I'm strong enough, I know I am.</span><br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Leaving your foes alive is how you change them. The living can reform, the dead can't.""</font> His doctrine of battle. <font color=""#f26522"">""I've killed my fair share in the past. The invasion of Pundambaya forced me to.""</font> A slight flash of memories ran through his head, the armies he stared down. Only one soldier he had faced was anything like Fury, nobody else compared. <font color=""#f26522"">""But I'd never kill in rage, only out of necessity!""</font><br/><br/>Then the rings ceased moving, vibrating slowly as they hovered less than an inch away from his skin. The Pundambayan warrior moved his arms forward with open palms, breathing in deeply. Fury would strike first, and how he reacts to it will determine the course of the entire battle. <br/><br/>With a deathly stare, Kanitah glared down the Fireen. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm not much stronger than I was back then, and I'm not getting any younger. But I'm certain I'll beat you this time.""</font> With a swift pull, he brought his arms back to his body. Clenching his fists tightly and pressing them to his sides. <font color=""#f26522"">""If not, I'll probably die. I'll be honest.""</font></div>"

You probably will.”<br/><br/>Fury burst forward, one stride carrying him further than any mortal man, almost closing the distance in an instance. The momentum was not to be wasted, as his left foot set down again in the earlier boxing stance he took an addition step forward on his right foot by shifting his weight and throwing his right fist forward in a driving punch directed down towards Kanitah’s nose. There was speed behind his attack, and no small amount of surprise. He had the longer reach and so was assured that his punch would limit Kanitah’s options, making counter attacking immediately very dangerous and giving Fury ample time to pull back if necessary.<br/></div>"

A punch aimed straight for Kanitah's nose. Any half decent fighter knows that the face is the easiest place to injure, and because the face bleeds the most it's the safest place for landing an initial blow. Should have seen that one coming a mile away. With two quick steps forward, his stance partially maintained, he ducked his head underneath Fury's arm and pressed forward into the Fireen's reach. The bulk of his smaller body swinging to the side as he wound up a straight punch to the dead center of Fury's chest. All too well he knew the risks of getting this close to Fury, he remembered the draining powers, but this punch was designed with the intent of pushing him back and knocking the wind out of him. Kanitah opened his mouth and let out a shout as he swung his arm forwards, lashing the ring enveloped fist straight at his foe's sternum.</div>"

His opponent moved inside quickly, benefiting from his short stature immensely against the comparably gigantic Fireen. However, Fury was aware of this disadvantage, and had been ready to pull back even before Kanitah managed to duck his strike and close the distance. Like any good fighter he was hardly willing to sacrifice the advantage of reach in a straight up fist-fight, so his right foot instinctively drew back and his left arm rose to check his opponent’s counter, blocking the strike heading for his chest with his arm and deflecting away some of its force, while also turning his body from the strike and moving backwards.<br/><br/>It still hurt, but Fury could remain on his feet because he was braced for the strike. With nimble footwork he bounced back another pace, Kanitah now once again too far to strike at him, his stance returned he lashed out with his slightly tingling left arm with a warding jab towards Kanitah’s face, preventing him from trying to close the distance again. If Kanitah tried to press he would have to face Fury’s full force, where-as he could hardly hold his ground while he was being struck without being able to fight back. Fury was light on his feet, and more than capable of drawing Kanitah into a mistake that would allow the Fireen to unleash hell upon him.<br/></div>"

This was just as fortunate as him landing his first strike, this gave him a good target for his next strike. Kanitah righted himself into a straighter upright position, his left arm raising rapidly to defend his face. However, this isn't a block. What Kanitah had done last time they had fought, was fight like a hero and not like a warrior. Showboating had nearly cost him his life last time, and now every move that he made was with precision. As Fury's fist flew towards him, he leaned backwards and struck upwards with his forearm.<br/><br/>This blow isn't aimed at Fury's body, no, it's aimed directly for the underside of his arm. If Fury was paying attention, he would remember that Kanitah has rings on every strike surface of his body. Including his forearm. Kanitah lashed at Fury's wrist in an attempt to further numb his arm, intending to make every strike that Fury makes with that arm worthless.  <br/><br/>The big downside of Kanitah's gambit is that he didn't much have the time to move out of the way, or block. So the punch was a guaranteed hit. His eyes squinted tightly and his face scrunched up before the blow landed dead center in his face. Not a full strength blow, but still extremely painful and dazing. It cracked the nasal bone that connects his forehead to his nose, but Kanitah steeled himself and pushed against it with his full weight. Refusing to move from his strike.</div>"

Attacking someone’s arm can be pretty effective but in this instance there was nothing resisting the momentum of Kanitah’s blow, so Fury’s arm raised in the air slightly and his armoured gloves took the brunt of the force with no seeming issue. Always one to capitalise on opportunity, which was after all what the jab was for, Fury simply lashed out again with the same arm, throwing another quick jab at his opponent’s face to see if he would attempt to defend himself in a similar matter. As he did so he made to step around anti-clockwise, circling his opponent but remaining the same distance away from him. </div>"

Though his first punch had hurt, Fury hadn't put enough force in it for Kanitah to even back away. It was like Fury wasn't fighting, but rather toying with him. These mistakes were sloppy, and it left him open for another blow. As Fury thrust his fist back at Kanitah once again, Kanitah opened his palm and thrust his arm downwards. With his right foot he pushed back away from Fury's fist and pulled to his side. Putting Kanitah on Fury's off hand side, while persisting with his downwards grab. With his right hand, Kanitah intended to catch Fury's arm from behind. What was his goal after grabbing it? He didn't really have anywhere to go after the grab, but catching Fury's arm was his current goal. </div>"

He turned properly to face the oncoming brawler and lashed out with one more jab to the face, hoping to catch him off guard as he attempted his cumbersome grab on the far faster attack.<br/><br/>This time however, Fury wasn’t going to let a mistake slide. Following his jab came the expected right hook with all his power, stepping into the strike while simultaneously forcing energy to be expelled from his body to launch himself forward. He was either going to take Kanitah’s head off, or fly straight through him and bowl him to the ground with his sudden burst of momentum. After his short burst he would dart rightward and turn to face Kanitah again, drawing energy into the palm of his right hand. <br/></div>"

This position wasn't a good one, not at all, he had no guard up and Fury was moving in for massive strike. Even with his durability, Kanitah couldn't take that punch, that's a killing blow. Even worse, this was his fault. The grab was instinctual instead of planned, Kanitah had put himself in this situation. Taking the punch would be stupid, he didn't plan to die today. That was not on the agenda, he still needed to find his daughter. So, what were his options? <br/><br/>Fury was going to plow into him with a ridiculous amount of force, either killing him or burying him in the dirt. Neither option sounded particularly enjoyable, but being buried at least left him alive. For now. <br/><br/>The only option that he had was to survive. <br/><br/>Kanitah whipped around and stepped into Fury's blow, his right arm totally useless right now. He couldn't raise it in time, but his left arm was free. A punch wouldn't work, he wasn't faster than Fury. All he could do was to bring his left arm up to his face as he stepped forward.<br/><br/>Stepping into the strike was the only thing that kept him from being decapitated by the Fireen's punch.<br/><br/>Fury's arm slammed into his shoulder, his fist missing his head but the metal at the base of his gauntlet beat at the side of his neck and edge of his shoulder. <br/><br/>As Fury followed through with the strike, Kanitah was plowed into with the energy of Fury's charge. The stout warrior was slammed head first to the ground, his own weight causing even worse pain as he slammed into the earth. The wind was knocked out of him, survival was great, but the pain wasn't. In the fray, Kanitah had lost sight of his foe. <br/><br/>Only one of his eyes listened to him, he tried scoping out the area with just one eye.  With a shove he rolled over onto his stomach, his right hand splayed out and his left pressed against his chest. Kanitah still didn't see Fury, the only thing that he could see were splotches of light. He had hit his head pretty hard against the ground. <br/><br/>Man, that grab had really put him in a bad spot. </div>"

Better to draw it out and not underestimate his opponent, the soldier in him knew that luck could turn any battle. He had shot through Kanitah and delivered a strike, though the sound had been wrong for skull-contact so he assumed the smaller brawler had managed to divert his strike at the last moment to a fleshier target. Assuming Kanitah would still be standing Fury had then immediately bounded right-ward and span around, drawing energy into his palm and ready for a counter attack.<br/><br/>Instead Kanitah had been before him sprawled in the dirt, looking somewhat dazed from Fury’s fist. He wasn’t looking in the right direction, and he was still down on his belly, so Fury deemed it wise to deal with him now. The energy already prepared he hefted it, forming a bright blue spear made from his power alone in his right hand. With a javelin like throw he launched it at his downed opponent, the distance negligible at only fifteen feet or so, the space he had cleared with a single bound earlier.<br/><br/>If luck held and Kanitah failed to recover his senses, the spear would probably pierce through his ribs and into his torso. Fury fervently hoped it would. <br/></div>"

That was good, but the problem was, Fury wasn't in his sights. There wasn't any thinking when it came to his next action, Kanitah just moved. Without a thought, without reason, Kanitah slapped the ground with his right hand and shoved off with his left. Pushing away with every single ton of force that he could muster, Kanitah's body was propelled away from his lying position. For a split second he witnessed the blast that would have certainly ended his life bury itself in the ground where he once lay. <br/><br/>The massive force of his shove sent him hurtling to the left. Spinning through the air uncontrollably until he struck a tree with his right shoulder. A hot wave of fear rushed through him as he slumped to the ground, a painful sting on his shoulder and back. Raspy breathing followed as he began to stand up, using his right hand to prop himself up. <span class=""bb-i"">Didn't think Fury was the sort to attack from behind. Seems like the sort who likes to see the face of the person he kills.</span></div>"

The stocky warrior had been thrown clear, partially by his own quick thinking, and bounced off a tree about forty feet in front of Fury. Once again, although Fury was settling old scores his opponent had yet to enrage him enough to barrel after him, which was probably working in Kanitah’s favour at that point. Fury instead decided to walk over to Kanitah, shaking his arms for different reasons as they felt a little uncomfortable.<br/><br/>“Had enough, ready to roll over and die?” He asked Kanitah as he walked over, letting out a low chuckle with little humour in it. “You should never have got in my way Old Man, you had your chance to escape this fate a long time ago.” Fury spat, rolling his arms and cracking his neck in expectation. He couldn’t quite grab at any energy at that point, having failed to steal any from his opponent his reserves were being used to strengthen his body and project his ever-present shielding, so his ability to fight at range was somewhat hampered. Fury hated extended fights for that reason, especially in areas devoid of most life like this rocky battlefield. If he could get to the tree then he may be able to manifest something that would blow Kanitah to pieces.<br/><br/>Fury’s walk would carry him to Kanitah soon, but his foe would have plenty of time to stand and decide how he would meet Fury’s calm advance. <br/></div>"
5357,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-05-30 09:55:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Well, at least he had the decency to let him stand up. Which was nice. Then the everpressing issue of how much Kanitah could get done before Fury closed the gap between them. It was quite obvious that he hadn't been utilizing his full skillset, so maybe Kanitah had misread his abilities three years ago. Some limitations and terms may apply, and stuff like that. So that was even better. To be entirely honest, Kanitah isn't the sort who likes his opponents to have their full power. Never has understood that idea that other brazen warriors employ, it just pits you against the firing squad, and that's not a good place to be.<br/><br/>So here he was, catching his breath with his hand against a tree. Hmm, what can he do with a tree and a few dozen feet. Picking it up wouldn't be too far out of the question, your average oak tree by calculable weight is only around 8.8 tons. Which is well within the realm of possibilities. But hoisting a tree from the ground and hurling it would take a fair amount of time, and would put him at a distinct disadvantage. So, that wouldn't work very well. <br/><br/>But, he could utilize at least part of the tree to turn the battle in his favor. <br/><br/>Nothing to do as he stood up though, Kanitah took a deep breath and stepped backwards twice. Putting him just slightly rear of the tree. ""I'd lie down and die, Fury. If I didn't know that I'm about the only one who can put you down!"" The muscles in his entire body tensed and the veins from his neck to his feet bulged as he yelled. Kanitah brought his right arm backwards, his right hand curling tightly into a fist. <br/><br/>Kanitah slammed his hand into the tree, the blow shredding through the wood with relative ease. Chunks of bark and splinters of wood erupted from the opposite side of the tree as his hand passed through it. While it wasn't any kind of targeted attack, Kanitah was making an attempt at forcing Fury to turn his head away from him. (Keep in mind, the tree isn't destroyed. It just has a chunk blown out of it.)<br/><br/>If the gambit worked out, Kanitah would immediately clear the gap between them and begin his own offensive.</div>"

It wasn’t a very cost effective distraction as those things went, but it was still irritating. He raised one armoured arm in front of his face, relying on his shielding to send the debris around him harmlessly. As a soldier he was aware what Kanitah was doing, a slightly more explosive version of throwing sand in his face, but Fury was a good fifteen feet from the tree so he was confident he would at least have a moment to react.<br/><br/>Kanitah’s actions were still undetermined, but Fury had the smaller warrior’s energy trace locked so he could tell if he made a move even with his right arm in front of his face. Kanitah had but moments to react before he settled again in his ready stance. If he moved, Fury may just be a little more ready for his pressed attack than Kanitah realised. <br/></div>"

His pain was more than worth it, it gave him precious seconds on his opponent. Kanitah glared at Fury with a divine. . .Well, Fury. Immediately after his strike at the tree, Kanitah burst into a sprint towards the energy leech. The gap between them was entirely negligible at this speed, leaving Fury less  than a second to react. The old man brought both of his arms backwards, barreling towards his foe in a headlong charge. <br/><br/>Before the gap slammed shut, Kanitah leaned forward with both hands thrusting forward. Fingers clenched tightly into bony fists, with every single pound of his weight and every fiber of his muscle aimed into a pair of titanic punches aimed towards Fury. His right arm thrust straight towards Fury's sternum, and his left arm aimed at where Fury's right kidney should be. <br/><br/>(Though to be fair, Pundambayans have twin stomachs in the same place as human kidneys. So, he's actually aiming for his right stomach. )<br/><br/>With the full weight of his body and an angled strike to two sensitive areas, Kanitah intends to both knock the wind out of his foe, and to cause intense pain bodily pain. <br/><br/></div>"

With his right arm still in front of his face he seemed unlikely to bring up any defence against Kanitah, but ultimately his lack of sight was never any limitation…<br/><br/>There wasn’t time for anything all that fancy, with only moments to spare the Fireen warrior skirted leftward with a neat turning side-step. It was just enough, his right leg stuck out to catch his opponent’s momentum and turn it against him as his right fist just glanced past Fury’s ribs, even in that tiny contact cracking his armour and leaving him vulnerable to any further strikes to his lower abdomen. His right hand shot down from his face and cupped the smaller warrior’s back as he shot past, giving him a helpful shove on his way to tripping over Fury’s outstretched foot.<br/><br/>Kanitah should hopefully barrel past Fury, and catch himself on the Fireen’s foot as he struggled to re-assert control over the momentum he had gathered covering the distance so quickly. However Fury was even now unsure of his opponent’s potential, perhaps he could save himself, the Fireen was ready to bounce back into his boxing stance if things went south.<br/></div>"

It wasn't bone, but it was something breaking. Kanitah had broken through his foe's armor, and even though his assault hadn't yielded as much of an impact as he would have liked, he was making ground. Kanitah's body flew facefirst to the ground, both of his arms still extended forwards. His fingers splayed out and he caught himself with both hands, letting his own weight go over. The strange alien grass tickling at his hands for a scarce moment as they touched the ground. This threw Kanitah into a backflip that put him in the air once again. With a bit of style, Kanitah shifted his weight so that he would spin around and be facing Fury once again. <br/><br/>With a loud thud, Kanitah's feet slammed into the ground. A small wave of air pushing away from his legs as he landed, causing the grass to bow to its kiss. Honestly, he was kind of proud of himself. ""Fury, I don't know why you do what you do. In the end I suppose I don't care. But what I do know, is that I've been holding back on you this whole time. And you've been holding back on me."" A smug grin crossed the older man's face, his beard bending with the curvature of his cheeks. <br/><br/>""So, let's stop dancing about and get to real fighting, Fury!"" Kanitah threw his entire weight into shifting his posture, lifting his right leg upwards and rotating his body with it. Slamming his foot into the ground, putting himself in a squared martial stance, lifting both hands up to face level and pointing them towards the Fireen. ""Because this time around, I'm going to show you what a real fighter can do!""<br/><br/>Kanitah knows that he has to fight without restraint, to have to set aside his own want and need to try and help Fury. Kanitah knows full well that the idea of beating the evil out of Fury won't work, even though he wishes sincerely that were how it worked. <br/><br/>Kanitah has to beat the courage out of Fury, he has to beat the senses out of Fury. <br/><br/>The Hero of Pundambaya has to beat Fury so resoundingly that he is too scared to ever harm someone else.</div>"

The Fireen looked unperturbed by his damaged armour as he had turned to face his opponent after his act of acrobatics. Though his brow was furrowed, the first sign of his temper flaring, the Fireen was still in relative control by some extreme act of willpower. Kanitah was picking up on his restraint, not realising that telling him to fight properly was probably not in his best interests, the Unbridled rage of the Void being an almost unstoppable force, and one Fury detested using except in the most extreme circumstances. There was still a touch of Manadar behind the shell of Fury and the soul of the Void.<br/><br/>Fury put his personal problems aside. He had come too far to back out of the fight with Kanitah now, which left him few options, either to kill him or beat him to the point where he couldn’t oppose Fury in the future. Fury noted his defensive stance and briefly considered launching energy glaives to cut the cocky warrior in two, abandoning the plan as he considered his finite and slowly dwindling energy reservoirs. His eyes narrowed as he took in the distance separating them, it was time he had a bite to eat.<br/><br/>Fury shifted back into a kick-boxing stance after closing the distance between them to about six feet, provided Kanitah hadn’t moved that is, in which case he would have gone on the defensive. He would then promptly circle Kanitah from outside his range, moving quickly behind him to strike low with an outside Ilyushin to his left knee with whatever leg was most suitable, targeting either the back front or side of the knee depending on the smaller warrior’s response. <br/></div>"
5363,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-06-05 16:15:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Fury was closing the gap at a decent pace, useful for Kanitah to be on the offensive. Once again he would use this terrain to his advantage. The Pundambayan put his weight on his right leg and quickly dragged the flat side of his left foot across the ground, quickly repositioning his leg and kicking up a cloud of dirt towards Fury. It put his footing into a more manouverable position, and tossed dirt in the face of his foe. Should it managed to hit, it would have little more effect than pissing Fury off.<br/><br/>Kanitah knows exactly what he's doing.<br/><br/>(As I'm certain pissing off Fury wouldn't stop him from enacting his offensive.)<br/><br/>Fury began circling Kanitah, likely seeking to strike at him from behind. Kanitah's obvious reaction was to begin spinning in place to match his pace. Fury moved in to strike at his knee with a low-kick, which meant that Fury's entire leg was extended outwards to strike. Which put Fury's leg in an unsafe place. <br/><br/>As the leg came to strike, Kanitah quickly reached down with both hands and bent his knee slightly. This put his hands on the same plane as Fury's kick, with intent to catch Fury's leg and jerk it upwards. <br/><br/>If the snatch and jerk succeeded and Fury was unfooted, Kanitah intended to twist Fury's ankle until it broke.</div>"

Only a sloppy or amateur low-kick can be easily caught, and Fury’s was neither of those things. With his super-natural strength and energy augmented speed there was no chance that his opponent was going to be able to nonchalantly crouch down and catch his kick with his hands, especially considering the time he had to react to the kick, the first Fury had launched. He would be lucky to escape without broken fingers as Fury’s shin impacted the reaching hands and most likely slammed into the outside of his knee for good measure.<br/><br/>Fury wondered why Kanitah, presuming he had sufficient time to react considering his actions, didn’t just check his kick with his leg, but it was too late to correct that mistake now and he would have to pay the price. <br/></div>"

If he hadn't put his hand in front of his knee it would have broken his fingers. Instead of breaking them it simply popped his pinky and ring finger out of socket before sending Kanitah sliding to his right. The momentum carried from Fury's kick caused him to slide across the ground, pushing him outside of the crater and back into the grass. A path was cut in the grass by his weight being propelled across it, as he slowed down the rut grew shallower until it was no more. <br/><br/>The Pundambayan winced in pain as he grabbed his right hand with his left, what he was about to do next was going to hurt like hell. With his left hand he grabbed the two dislodged fingers and pulled sharply. Snapping the two of them back into place, causing a few tears to burst from his eyes. Reminded him of pulling nose hairs, but worse. <br/><br/>A few dozen yards away from Fury, Kanitah stood there with his right hand cupped in his left.

The satisfying crunch his boot had made on contact with his foe’s fingers told him he had done some damage, though nowhere near enough for his liking. Fury marched up on Kanitah, trying to close to that distance where fighting was possible for two unarmed combatants. He was growing frustrated with the fight; Kanitah was proving more difficult than before to pin down and drain, stripping him of his fighting potential while increasing Fury’s own. Instead the reverse was growing more likely, and Fury was getting pissed.<br/><br/>As his temper flared someone watching particularly carefully would have spotted the grass at his feet literally dying as he stepped upon it, the life energy within completely consumed by the Void’s vessel. That same effect was what Kanitah had in store for him if he didn’t move quickly enough.<br/><br/>Seven feet separating them, provided Kanitah had made no sudden movements, Fury would approach with his arms and hands wide, staring down his foe and waiting for his move, half crouched himself to negate his opponent’s short stature. <br/></div>"

These are the thoughts that danced in his head as his foe closed the gap, it had always seemed that Kanitah was in way over his head. Deception might work, if Fury was starting to get angry as he had planned. With his still aching right hand he dipped down to the ground, grabbing a handful of damp earth and grass. As he spoke he took on his most serious scowl. Didn't really know how well this would go over, but it didn't really have any risks. <br/><br/>""Did you think you had seen every magic that I hold within?"" He rose to his full height with a handful of dirt. ""All I need is a pinch of dirt!"" With a few nonsense words and noises he pitched it high in the air, we'll above his head and roundabouts where the sun should be. If it went off without a hitch, Fury would look directly into the sun and away from Kanitah. This would allow him time to rapidly close the gap between them without much risk. <br/><br/>Well. Without as much risk as normal.<br/><br/>If Kanitah got lucky, he would be able to enact the second part of his plan. A swift left hook to the broken segment of Fury's armor. The punch would shatter it even further and potentially be able to send his foe flying.<br/><br/>If Fury didn't even look towards the dirt, however, Kanitah would do nothing but return to a defensive stance, </div>"

After having closed to his six foot fighting range Kanitah tried for some theatrics, possibly meant to distract the trained Fireen. Unfortunately for him, all it really served to do was weaken his guard by leaving one arm skyward, as Fury darted in surprisingly low. With a blast of energy shot upwards from both hands as he jerked them slightly both of Kanitah’s arms would be slowed in their attempts to stop him. With a little luck, though not as much as he would have required had Kanitah given him the respect he deserved, his right shoulder would ram into Kanitah’s stomach even as his left hand seized the back of his right knee and his right hand caught the left. The moment Fury was able to attain the double leg takedown grip he was looking for it would be simple to push his head under Kanitah’s right arm while simultaneously pushing off with his left leg and using a pulling motion from one side and a chop from the other. This would have the eventual effect of twisting Kanitah off his feet and falling back and to his left, with Fury’s weight slamming on top of him with side control.</div>"

The distance between them was rapidly decreased as Fury blasted towards Kanitah. If his foe had thought this was going to go off without a hitch he'd be dead wrong. With less than a second to react he had only one option to defend himself. <br/><br/>Kanitah lifted his right leg upwards in a sharp knee block, putting it between his stomach and Fury's shoulder. The force of him raising his knee skyward and Fury's own speed would cause his shoulder some intense pain. Possibly dislocating it in the process.<br/><br/>As well, he brought down a strike towards Fury's head with his tightly balled up fist. Aiming to disorient and stun his foe. However, a blast of energy slowed his descending arm. This would ruin his aim towards Fury's head.<br/><br/>As his defense was raised, however, Fury did slam into him. Full speed and full force was enough to send the pair flying backwards. His left arm helplessly dangling in the air as they flew. The strike to his knee might have popped the bone out of place, but as long as it would serve it's purpose he didn't care yet.<br/><br/>Once the two finally land, however, he knew he'd be in a world of trouble. <br/><br/>Fury loves to grapple.</div>"

Fury was adept at mastering his pain however, especially when his rage began to get the better of him, and by his reckoning he was still somewhat functional. With only one leg on the ground Fury could far more quickly sweep Kanitah off his one remaining foot with his right hand, and Fury pushed his head as close to Kanitah’s right side as possible despite the obstructive presence of his knee. This helped protect him from Kanitah, who tried to rain a blow down upon him but was slowed somewhat by Fury’s energy blasts, giving the Fireen time to complete his takedown slightly more messily than he had hoped.<br/><br/>Kanitah fell and Fury landed on top of him side on, so they formed a sort of humanoid cross. With side control quickly maintained Fury slipped forward and then leftward, bringing his right elbow up to ram it into the left side of Kanitah’s chin and hopefully daze him while he tried to keep him locked down with his left arm.<br/></div>"

They hit the ground hard, a bit of a crater forming underneath their combined weight as they skidded to a stop. It became instantly evident that Fury was trying to drain him by keeping him pinned down and grappled. The passive drain felt like someone was tugging at every fiber of his being, and if he didn't do something about it there would be hell to pay. There are really only two ways out of this kind of grapple. A wild grapple like this one was easier to get out of than a calculated grapple, and it was pretty evident that Fury's attempt hadn't worked out the way he originally planned.<br/><br/>The deadlocked pair had almost the exact same idea at the exact same time, and positioning between the two was entirely key to the effectiveness of their attacks. Kanitah's right arm was still in the position it had been left in from the failed strike to Fury's crown. This allowed for an almost instant response to the repositioning. Kanitah matched Fury's elbow with his own in a downwards strike, putting his arm between his head and Fury's arm. <font color=""#aba000"">""Lemme go you filthy leech!""</font> The words were spat from his mouth as he bellowed them to Fury, a bit of spittle flying from his lips towards his foe.</div>"

Even while stalemating however the grapple was definitely a position in Fury’s favour, as with every passing moment his energy leeching abilities began to sap Kanitah’s strength. This was not lost on the warrior who had felt the Fireen’s most formidable ability at work before, and Fury expected him to quickly intensify his attempts to escape. Deciding that establishing a better degree of contact was in his favour, Fury immediately attempted to transition after his failed elbow strike into the full mount by sliding his left leg over Kanitah’s body and clamping down on his sides with both knees. He kept his head down and close as possible while doing this, making it highly unlikely that his opponent could deal him a blow while he was moving.</div>"

However, it would give Kanitah the perfect position to pin Fury. Allowing the full mount to take place, Kanitah dropped both of his arms to his chest and pushed both of his feet outwards and back. Putting himself into a counter mount posture, protecting his chest and head with his forearms and putting his feet behind Fury's. Once the mount went through, Kanitah brought his right foot inwards around Fury's left foot, this would pin his ankle in place. <br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Didn't know you swing like that, Fury. Is this the experimental phase where you're not quite sure who you are? It's okay, most boys go through it.""</font> Kanitah joked as the situation was moving into much dire straights, an incendiary comment or two couldn't hurt. Besides, he was already in a bad position. Not like it could get much worse, aside from dying.</div>"

He felt Kanitah trying to obtain some advantage with his legs so he quickly dropped his weight forward and attempted to seize control of Kanitah's head from around the back of his neck with his right arm. While doing this, Fury also fought with Kanitah’s legs, attempting to hook them back and out rather than allowing them to get inside and do the same to Fury, which Fury would have an advantage with being in control of the full mount.<br/><br/>Characteristically, Kanitah was making jokes at what could be one of the most dangerous points in his life. Fury, having little to say, simple grinned at him in that ferocious way warriors do when they sense they’re winning a fight. The next few moments would be critical for Kanitah, could he throw the Fireen? Or was Fury to have victory with his immense advantages in grappling. <br/></div>"

Again, only for the purpose of pissing him off.<br/><br/>Their legs scrambled around eachother, but Fury's longer legs would prove to be more advantageous as they found better ground around Kanitah's. The grapple persisted and Fury's body was moving downwards onto Kanitah's own and he was moving in for a stranglehold. Which wouldn't be good, you know, breathing is still very important to him. His response was limited to just about three options, two of which weren't guaranteed to work, the other. <br/><br/>Well the other's just plain obvious.<br/><br/>With his hands between Fury and himself, Kanitah thrust both of them upwards into Fury's solar plexus. Without any room to evade the strike he wouldn't be able to defend. While Fury was trying to strangle him, he left his entire chest open for a series of much smaller but very impactful blows. As he would lay a series of short punches into Fury's chest, he would also begin to roll his hips side to side, as well as rocking his shoulders back and forth with each strike. <br/><br/>As well, with each successful blow, it would dent his armor inwards onto his own chest. This would force his breath shallower and shallower as the room for his ribs to expand was diminished.<br/><br/>Kanitah's punches would be at barely at a fifth of their power, and with no defense it would at least push Fury upwards. This would let Kanitah have more room to react, as well as make his follow up. If they succeeded.</div>"

Fury managed to hook Kanitah’s legs as he pushed down and tried to enact his choke, but felt a slight pressure and a sudden lifting of his mid-drift as Kanitah attempted to open palm strike his solar plexus. Unfortunately the cramped conditions worked against Kanitah, for even with his force enhancing rings such a blow was never going to be particularly effective against the armoured juggernaut. All it really served to do was force Fury to grit his teeth and try harder for the choke, aiming to wrap his right arm around and behind his opponent’s neck. Technically there was a lot of other moves he could try and transition to at this point, but frankly all Fury needed was a good stable contact point where his opponent couldn’t fight back very well. With that established his energy drain would do the work for him.</div>"

Because while Fury had his feet wrapped around the hero's own, he had also lifted most of his weight off of his knees. As well, his knees were outside. <br/><br/>With a small push, Kanitah lifted his weight onto his feet and twisted his legs inwards. Bringing Fury's legs with them. Following this, he brought both of his feet towards eachother. Moving into the bridging motion of sitting into Indian Style. This would force Fury's weight backwards onto his feet and knees again, and allow Kanitah to follow up with a sharp shove from both of his hands. <br/><br/>This combination of moments would shove the Fireen backwards, bringing both of them into an upright position. While it wouldn't entirely break Fury's hold, it would raise his body much higher than Kanitah's. It would also bend Fury's knees unnaturally to the side, which would hurt like hell.</div>"

In the leg department he couldn’t do much other than directly contest Kanitah attempting to force his legs closer together, but Fury had the hook in and his legs were already stretched open, so he had the advantage somewhat of resisting Kanitah’s move as opposed to trying to enact one like Kanitah was trying. Kanitah was able to make some head-way as their weight shifted somewhat, but Fury held tight and resisted him every step of the way, and now the energy drain was taking effect. Fury had been in contact with Kanitah for a little over five seconds, which in a fight was no small amount of time. With the supremely deadly effect taking hold over time, Kanitah would now feel as is a little over a fifth of his total energy had been drained from him, which was indeed the case. <br/><br/>Comparatively, Fury was growing ever stronger, the drain feeding his strength and giving him greater ability to resist in the ensuing battle of strength and wits.<br/></div>"

Was this all that Fury had amounted to? A clingy leech that wanted nothing more than dinner and a movie? He knew that Fury was insane, but this was just pathetic! If he wanted a snack, he was going to have to fight for it.<br/><br/>Howling with frustration as he did so, Kanitah continued forcing his legs inward and twisted his shoulders and core muscles to his right. Then his left, continuing to rock back and forth.<br/><br/>With Fury's weight shifted, it would be an easy task for the hero to roll over on top of him. Putting Kanitah into the mounted position and turning him from the defensive to the offensive.</div>"

He momentarily released his hold around Kanitah’s neck, allowing his right arm to drag rather than grip, which when coupled with a move no ordinary human could pull off, using energy to suspend his upper body a short distance up into the air, gave Kanitah the freedom he wished to roll over. Fury also hoped to entangle his legs from Kanitah’s as he did this, though Kanitah may react quickly enough to try and clamp him down, he was at the disadvantage as Fury legs were on the inside of his own.<br/><br/>When Kanitah rolled he would find Fury’s arm was still loosely around his neck, and by tracking which direction he was rolling in Fury could easily adjust his flight to match his roll, waiting for that crucial moment when Kanitah inevitably turned his back on Fury. When he did that, the arm would suddenly grip with all Fury’s might as he released his low flight, falling down on the back of Kanitah with his arm hopefully conveniently already around his neck, in what should be an all too familiar situation to Kanitah, Fury’s left arm would position itself behind Kanitah’s head and the right hand would grip the bicep.<br/><br/>The rear blood choke was a favourite of Fury’s.<br/></div>"

Both of his legs had come free and Fury's weight was off of him. <br/><br/>Wait.<br/><br/>Fury's weight should be pulling towards the ground, but it's gone.<br/><br/>With a sudden and horrifying realization, Kanitah halted his roll like an early Warner Brothers cartoon character running towards a cliff, staring over his right shoulder at Fury. It was piteously evident what he was trying to do, and he wasn't going to have any part in it. Without Fury's weight on top of him there wasn't anything stopping him from doing this. Kanitah's legs kicked at an awkward angle towards the ground. Sending his weighty little body skidding across the ground away from the Fireen, escaping the attempt at Fury's grapple. <br/><br/>If Fury attempted to interrupt the slide, Kanitah was ready. As he shoved off, he raised both of  his arms in front of him and bent them towards his face. In a boxer's guard, but parallel to the ground. If Fury tried to reinstate his choke hold, he would find an even more difficult to close gap between them. <br/><br/>Lastly, by shoving himself across the ground horizontally, it put both of his legs together and straight. Which would prevent Fury from catching  them with his legs, disallowing him from spreading them out like a starfish across the ground.</div>"

His eyes narrowed in minor annoyance at his foe’s speedy escape from an incredibly perilous situation; however Fury felt revitalised even in the brief contact they had shared. With stolen energy pulsing through his veins he felt comfortable that he could continue the fight with even greater pressure, and to that end he began to clench and unclench his right hand, causing a brief glowing blue light to emanate with each motion.  Kanitah had to spend some time sorting himself out, which gave Fury the perfect opportunity to give him a taste of the Fireen’s real power. <br/><br/>Fury settled into something like a boxing stance with his left shoulder closer to Kanitah, his right hand continuing to flex as he built up energy in the palm of his hand and then condensed it, packing a huge volume of explosive potential into a small space. His teeth gritted at the effort, but it was a good pain.<br/></div>"

A few beads of sweat staining his brow and running down past his eyes as he sat up. The hand of his foe was sparking with a murderous energy and Kanitah knew that all he could do was move away and keep running. <br/><br/>This was his fiercest foe, the strongest person he had ever fought.<br/><br/>The only foe he had faced that compared was the general of the invasion fleet, way back when he gained his fame. But he was a coward, and once the fight had begun, he showed no honor. No bravery in the face of possible defeat. The battle ensued and he lost because he was too afraid to begin. <br/><br/>Fury was something else. <br/><br/>Dead set on accomplishing whatever insane goal he set his mind on, Fury didn't let up. No matter what was thrown at him, no matter how much force Kanitah put into his foe, Fury didn't yield. <br/><br/>It was the most fear that Kanitah had ever felt, the first time he stood against Fury. On that wretched planet, where so much adversity emerged. Where Kanitah had to stop some random peons from sabotaging another man, saving the life of some weirdo whose name he never learned.<br/><br/>Now there was nobody. <br/><br/>It was just Fury and Kanitah.<br/><br/>The Hero and the Monster.<br/><br/>And Kanitah didn't know what to do. <br/><br/>The slide had torn his shirt up the back, exposing more of his scars and the metallic shine of the word engine, so he grabbed his shirt with one hand and tore it off. With only one eye open, Kanitah looked towards Fury. Putting his right hand back on the ground and raising his right leg so his foot was touching the ground. Shoving upwards and leaning his weight forward, standing back upright. Lazily lifting his hands back upwards into a similar stance to Fury's own. Knowing that whatever Fury was about to do with the energy in his right hand, it wasn't going to be good.<br/><br/>With a few deep breaths he spoke. <font color=""#f26522"">""Why?

He looked dead at Kanitah as they faced each other again in one of those many natural pauses that tended to occur, when two opponent’s couldn’t kill each other quickly enough. <br/><br/>“Not mindless, little man.” Fury muttered, staring him down. “You don’t understand, you know nothing of me.” He told Kanitah, his eyes narrowing as he considered his possible replies. Fury wasn’t a stupid man, nor was he particularly brilliant, but the effect of the Void on his emotions drove him to a near constant rage which made clear thought difficult. Trying to formulate some sort of justification for his actions was both difficult and in Fury’s mind pointless, there was some truth to the assumption that he was a psychopath. <br/><br/>He looked at his left palm in front of his face for a moment, ever concentrating on the energy build up in his right so as to not release it by accident. He thought about his actions, what was he doing exactly?<br/><br/>“All my power? It’s not enough.”<br/><br/>“I need your power Kanitah, when I take it I’ll be strong enough.” He stopped talking abruptly, surprised that he had even addressed his foe by name, forgetting exactly when he had learned it, possibly when the smaller man announced himself or some-such in the past. Fury reached out his right hand and pointed at Kanitah, the energy still bubbling in his condensed fist.<br/><br/>“Get ready.” He muttered, walking forward. <br/></div>"

He can project blasts of energy, or amplify the force of his punches with it. Like a swiss army knife of energy manipulation, instead of Kanitah's specific capabilities. <br/><br/>As he tried to plan out his next move, confusion still burned in his ears. Nothing made sense about what Fury had said. <font color=""#f26522"">""And strong enough for what?

Then again, this wasn’t too far from the truth.<br/><br/>Kanitah had shuffled to his right, but he hadn’t moved much further back, so ultimately the distance Fury had to walk across was negligible at best, at a slight angle to compensate for Kanitah’s movements. Kanitah still had questions, questions which tugged at Fury’s mind and tried to divert him from his concentration on the condensed energy. Maybe one or two seconds after beginning to move forward, he was only five feet away from Kanitah, almost within punching range, surely the smaller warrior had to do something or he was going to let Fury literally punch the condensed energy straight into him.

The one thing that he did have on his side is that Fury had adjusted himself to match his shuffle to the side. This put Fury slightly to Kanitah's left, and vice versa. Now, Kanitah didn't know if Fury was left handed or right handed. But Kanitah <span class=""bb-b"">is</span> left handed. It can be assumed, however, from Kanitah's perspective. That Fury is right handed, as he is charging that energy in his right hand. <br/><br/>With such short distance, and with no real way to escape. Kanitah readied himself. For when the blow came he was going to have to evade. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. The only way to really avoid it, however, was to get closer to it. In the mean time, however, stalling was about all he could do.<br/><br/>""You still haven't answered me. Why?""</div>"

Regardless of the success of this move however Fury would have no choice but to release the pent up energy he had stored, following up with an underarm palm strike that would precede the sudden explosive force of his condensed energy blast escaping his control. The blast would arc out from his right palm, engulfing whatever lay in front of him, which if he had obtained his grab would almost certainly be Kanitah’s upper-torso. The grab was an important step in the attack though, should it succeed Fury could hold Kanitah still, ensuring he was not simply blasted back by the attack and that he could not dodge effectively, but would instead feel the full brunt of Fury’s devastating power. <br/></div>"

Fury claimed that he had someone to kill. Before the battle resumed, Kanitah muttered these shameful words. ""So do I.""<br/><br/>As Fury darted forward, leaving almost zero room between the two, Kanitah too leaped into his foe. Turning his body towards Fury and evading his left hand grab by bending at the hip and leaning forwards. With his right foot leading inwards, he bent at the knee and shoved off the ground with his left leg. Putting every single pound of his weight and leaping ability into this move. <br/><br/>Kanitah plowed into Fury's body, between both of his arms and away from Fury's unleashed blast. Kanitah would slam shoulder first into Fury's body, using his powerful leg muscles to throw himself into Fury and put him to the ground. While grappling would put them back into the same situation as before, but with Kanitah on top this time around. </div>"

He could hardly launch the beam as he was bowled over by an attack that was far more powerful than it should have been. Vaguely his energy senses picked up that the disproportionate momentum of Kanitah’s counter had come from the strange rings adorning his body, but the Fireen had little time to consider this as he flew off his feet and slammed onto his back, skidding across the earth. Energy was seeping from his hand in nauseating waves as his concentration dimmed, his body screaming out its discomfort as he considered the injury he had likely suffered. How was it possible that a shoulder barge had dented his armour and broke his ribs?<br/><br/>Fury’s eyes narrowed, the wounds feeding his power, the energy increasing tenfold as pain was ruthlessly squashed and packaged, sent directly to the front lines.<br/><br/>Kanitah was on top of him, he could tell that vaguely, but his right arm was still free and he had plenty of opportunity to defend himself. He threw a right handed hook and opened his fist, finally releasing the pent up energy blast at an up and left angle to obliterate anything on top of him. If anything stopped his hand he would release the blast in a circular ball instead and damn the consequences, likely injuring himself but still clearing a wide area around him.<br/></div>"

Although Fury was more powerful Kanitah had caught him off guard with the shoulder charge, and he would do it again! Using Fury's own body as a springboard, Kanitah pulled his elbow inwards and slammed it downwards. Sharply striking the ring enveloped flesh of his elbow into Fury's gut and lower ribcage, but not as an attack. Though that was an added bonus. No, this was to push Kanitah's upper body into a seated position on top of Fury's legs. <br/><br/>Yes, very awkward positioning of his own legs, he knows. It actually hurts like hell to have his right leg tucked underneath his left and then force his body to twist, but comfort isn't his goal. His goal is to survive, and survival is all Kanitah's good at. <br/><br/>As Fury brought that devastating punch up and around, Kanitah brought his own left arm around on a  collision course. This was happening midway through his vertical shove, and in hardly a split second. The panic in Kanitah's eyes, the fear of what's the come, it made this entire situation seem like a terrifying dream state. <br/><br/>Screaming like some wounded beast, cornered and forced to fight for survival against a much larger best, Kanitah unleashed his last and best move to save his own life. Opening his hand and aiming to shove Fury's right hand into his own face or chest, depending on the resistance put up by the Fireen. The Pundambayan was going to try and use Fury's own vicious power against him, maybe losing his left hand in the process, but a left hand is replaceable. <br/><br/>A life isn't.</div>"

What would have been a side on and definitely less lethal energy blast became something much more as he twisted his wrist so his palm was face up. With his palm now facing centre on towards his opponent, who was desperately grappling with him, the energy blast was going to hit his target from incredibly close range with the force he had originally wished. <br/><br/>Fury liked making the best out of a bad situation. <br/></div>"

Kanitah forced his hand against the open palm of Fury's right hand, in an attempt to absorb the majority of the blast with his hand instead of his body. By 'forced his hand' I mean, he was open palm slapping into Fury's hand with every pound of force that he can manage. Regardless of whether or not it actually landed, it served the purpose of sparing Kanitah a hole through his face. As his hand matched the blast, Kanitah was blown away from Fury. <br/><br/>A dozen or so feet to the left Kanitah landed on his side, still facing Fury through some strange chance of fate. Not wanting to look at what might have been a stump of an arm, Kanitah flexed his fingers. Intense pain rushed up his arm and caused him to writhe slightly, but there was a bit of happiness. He still had his hand, though he might lose a finger to infection. Three of his fingers are definitely broken, and at least two of the bones in his palm.<br/> <br/>Kanitah lay there, letting the pain tell him where he was hurt. Turned out that he had second degree superficial burns running up the entire left hand side of his torso, which was nice. Those are the ones that hurt the most, but are technically the least harmful. <br/><br/>Alive? Check.<br/><br/>In one piece? Check.<br/><br/>In pain? Big check.<br/><br/>It was really starting to wear on him, how much stronger than him Fury was. </div>"

The decision was his to make, Fury supposed, rolling to his feet with a grimace. His body hurt all the more when he stood, the injuries he sustained catching up to him in one wave of discomfort. He staggered rightward, coughed and turned to face Kanitah in his location on the ground. <br/><br/>His armour was badly dented, an unfortunate by-product of his repeated encounters with Kanitah’s force-enhancing abilities. It was pressing into his side uncomfortably where his ribs were probably broken, but there wasn’t much he could do about that now. However, despite his energy blast Fury still felt as if he was running now with more energy than he had in the beginning of the fight. This was good news for the Fireen, who had developed a healthy respect for his opponent if only for the wallop his tackle had given him. <br/><br/>“If I had my damn sword I’d fuck you up.” Fury spat, for the first time in recent memory wishing he hadn’t been so damned arrogant about his new power and had just taken a weapon with him. He had a moment until Kanitah got himself together to recover himself, preferring to do it on his own feet, so he stood there until he had normalized his breathing. There were perhaps ten feet separating the fighters.<br/></div>"

Pundambayan side arms are hefty little tools with more than one purpose, aside from just killing. Unlike your swords.""</font> The word sword translated to something along the lines of; Archaic tool of bloodshed. <br/><br/>With his uninjured hand and a bit of shoving, Kanitah forced himself up into a seated position. Nothing more to do but wait and talk, if Fury decided to end him right now, there wouldn't be much he could do. Not yet at least. <font color=""#f26522"">""If we were both armed, it wouldn't be a contest. I'm just an old guy with a backpack that gives me a boost of power.

Dying while thinking about your daughter is a good way to go, I'd say. <br/><br/>As the words left his mouth, tears began to flow down his face. <font color=""#f26522"">""She grew up to be so different from me, y'know?

If an outsider was somehow aware of the amount of willpower required to resist the Void’s hunger day in and day out they might see another side to Fury. It was truly a wonder he was not wholly consumed by violence. <br/><br/>“Freaks like me?” Fury stood there dumbstruck, though he’d always known deep down that the moment the Void had taken over his body and nestled itself within his ‘soul’ he wasn’t the same, he was only looking for justice, justice for a planet torn down and destroyed when it might have otherwise survived. Was he the bad guy then? He clenched his fists with a grimace.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">You don’t have to explain yourself to this pathetic creature, end its life, tear its machine from its body and consume it all, you need it to destroy… him.</span><br/><br/>The Void egged him on with all its power, his muscles tensing as he fought to maintain control over his own body. The voice which emanated from Fury was not that multi-layered crescendo one usually expected from him… it was the man’s voice without the Void.<br/><br/>“You failed your daughter, Kanitah, and you know nothing of me as I know nothing of you.” Fury gritted his teeth. “You don’t know why I’m here, what I must do, you don’t even know my real name.” He almost looked down in disgrace. “You don’t understand that I’m doing the best I can with what I’ve been given, you just see the mask, what you call Fury.” He looked crestfallen. “My name is Manadar Rane, I am the last of the Fireen, and my planet Antire was destroyed. The creature known as Skallagrim took everyone I ever knew and loved and killed them all. <br/><br/>Fury’s eyes lit up with blue fire, raising his head as an overwhelming burst of energy emanated from him in one huge wave. <br/><br/>“I never got to meet my child Kanitah, at least you had the chance.” He clenched his right fist and stared at Kanitah, and if the man was ever going to fear Fury then truly that was the moment he would feel it. <br/><br/>“So, where do we go from here…” His voice had taken on that multi-layered ethereal quality it had usually as the Void reasserted itself after a ruthless internal battle. “There’s something inside of me that wants you dead Kanitah, nothing personal but I don’t think half measures are going to cut it this time.”<br/></div>"

There was more than a few kinds of pain running through him as he stood himself back up. Sliding his hands behind his back and cracking a few of his joints slowly. It was almost impossible to move his left arm the right way, and his right arm wasn't in pristine condition either. Looking like a bent old man with both hands behind his back, pressed up against his spine as though he were trying to hold himself up by counterbalancing himself with his hands. <font color=""#f26522"">""Part of me wants you dead too, I'll admit. And for a moment, I almost let that side of me take hold."" </font><br/><br/>With an audible crack, Kanitah's back popped as he straightened himself. Screaming belted from his mouth, Kanitah's left shoulder began to visibly bleed, presumably from the shattered collarbone on that side cutting through his skin. Both of his eyes tried to shut themselves, and his left eye yielded to the pain, his teeth ground against eachother and his words came through his teeth like venom from a cobra. <font color=""#f26522"">""That side of me is weak, and we both know that I'm strong. I've stood against you twice.""</font> <br/><br/>Standing there, with both hands behind his back. Kanitah tried his best to force a grin. Letting his hands drop from behind his back. The metallic gauntlets of the word engine Mk.2 adorning his hands glinted in the sunlight. <font color=""#f26522"">""But you know I can't let you win, I've got a daughter to find. Trust me, she's already out there looking for you. It's better for the both of us if I get off this planet alive.""</font> <br/><br/>Kanitah knew Fury would begin sensing it now.<br/><br/>When Kanitah slipped his hands behind his back, he put his hands into the metal gauntlet portions of the new Word Engine. The loud crack that came when his back popped was timed to cover the flipping of the switch at the base of the machine. The screaming was from the pain of the word engine beginning its violent process of rooting through his body and reinforcing what remained of his skeletal structure. <br/><br/>The Word Engine Mark 2 is online.</div>"

This was what he had come for, a real fight, no more half measures. The Fireen’s own energy was pulsating rapidly and fluxuating to an almost painful degree as he used the pain of his past to fuel the battle of his future. It was not an easy process, to ignite his Unbridled Fury, usually it happened as a result of catastrophic damage or inherent catastrophe. It had to be that way, if he tried to use it every time he fought eventually someone would get wise and outrun him, burning him out and leaving him vulnerable.<br/><br/>They hadn’t yet though, everyone wanted to fight him blow for blow, Fury had that effect on people.<br/><br/>“Come on then Kantitah, fight for your worthless life, who the hell cares anymore.” Fury yelled, though there was hardly any distance between them anyway. Fury was still cold, but that didn’t matter just then, there was a fight to be had. He charged, hoping that Kanitah was busy engaging his power, cringing as each step brought waves of pain from his broken ribs. As he reached him he leapt, forcing himself off the ground with his left foot, bending his right leg and launching himself straight at Kanitah with a vicious flying knee to the head or chest, depending on how he stood or reacted.<br/></div>"

Because you can move, it just really hurts. Opting on what would be the less painful option, Kanitah stood stock still as Fury rushed him. Leaping towards him and slamming his knee directly into his face. What had previously been a cracked bone in his nose was now a fully broken and bloodied nose, Kanitah was sent sliding backwards, his feet remaining firmly planted on the ground as he slid. It was about three feet of distance, not too much, and well within Fury's reach. <br/><br/>Wires and iron infested his body from head to toe, a massive surge of light erupted from the machine and washed over him. Bathing him in a bright auburn light, adding another ring around every strike zone of his body. Machines caused his skin to ripple as they filled him, pushing his bones back into place and piercing through them with their cold mechanical insensitivity. Muscles were coated in sheets of metal that strengthened their resolve, bones were shoved aside or encased in metal. Some shards of bone that were too far pushed were simply crushed by the machine's tendrils. <br/><br/>It became impossible for him to scream as they made their way into his jawline and held it there for a moment. The one little cable that worms its way into his nose only made a bigger mess of his broken nose, knocking the bone out of place entirely. All of this was happening faster than Kanitah can throw a punch, the Word Engine Mark 2 is so much more aggressive than the previous. <br/><br/>The rings were in place, the machines were rooted through his body, and he was standing there. Just a few feet from Fury with his eyes closed and his breathing erratic. Sweat and blood dripped off of him in various places, tears streamed because of the pain. Even a little spittle flowed into his beard. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Man, the Engine makes me ugly.</span> He thought as he stood there, composing himself.</div>"

As he dropped to the ground he carried his momentum forward into a downwards driving ‘super-man punch’ similarly at Kanitah’s face. With both feet on the ground he opened up with everything he had, an insane energy driven flurry of punches and mix-ups, throwing hooks jabs and crosses to the body and face and every other available option. There wasn’t anything calculated about it, no precise strikes to specific weak areas, Fury just unloaded a pre-practiced combination to unleash as many punches at his opponent while he was reeling.<br/><br/>After about five seconds of constant blows raining down upon Kanitah, in which time Fury could have easily launched over fifty punches across Kanitah’s body and face, Fury would have to accept that he couldn’t continue his combination at the risk of being countered and badly hurt himself. To finish off his vicious combination he would launch a pushing wave at his foe to drive him back and launch a powerful front kick.<br/></div>"

These were violent blows that rocked his entire body, and as Fury belted them into him he was pushed back even further. It was about this time that the engine had finished its machinations and he was free to move, but not before his face was bruised, bloodied and swolen from Fury's relentless onslaught. The punches continued to fly and the ground that he stood upon was torn apart as he slid across it. With Fury's reckless barrage of punches suddenly halting, Kanitah finally opened his eyes and saw Fury's hands unleash a blast wave to push him away. Deciding to escape Fury's range for a moment, Kanitah hopped just before Fury's blast was unleashed. The full weight of his blast struck him in his exposed chest, scorching him with its heat and sending him backwards just outside of Fury's kicking range. <br/><br/>The blast dissipated after it struck him and Kanitah slammed his feet back to the ground, teetering slightly as he stabilized himself. As his feet met the ground a small crater was formed underneath them, the force of his feet stamping the ground was comparable to a Boeing 757 crashing . With a sharp exhale from both his nose and his mouth, Kanitah spat and shot blood to the ground. Apparently a tooth had been knocked out of his mouth, because a tooth was in the small pool of blood on the ground. As he assessed his face's injuries, Kanitah noticed that his right eye had almost entirely swolen over and his left ear had been cauliflowered. A huge welp was on his right cheek and at least two punches had been struck to his throat. <br/><br/>If he hadn't had the engine online already, his throat would have begun to swell shut. Panting slightly as his vision blurred together into one uniform color for a second, Kanitah swiftly raised both of his hands and turned his hip, repositioning his feet so that his left leg was leading. His vision collected itself, tunneling back to Fury.  </div>"

He cut short his kick as Kanitah flew out of his range and instead pushed off the earth with his right foot in an explosive energy driven stride forward. As he moved his left hand was somewhat behind his body, glowing blue as he manifested one of his most dangerous energy weapons. The energy glaive, as he called it, began to materialize even as he continued to pursue Kanitah, though he was quickly cut short by the explosive landing of the smaller man. The force knocked him back, almost off his feet, but he used his abilities as a sort of stabilizing agent and instead slid backwards about ten feet instead. <br/><br/>The energy glaive kept building in his left hand even as he stopped his backwards momentum and re-asserted his forward momentum with a similar energy step. Charging towards Kanitah again he was prepared to react in two ways depending on his opponent’s movements, but if neither came to pass something different would occur. Should Kanitah still be stationary Fury would close the distance between them before suddenly jumping into the air about five feet from Kanitah’s position, moving too fast to be conceivably caught even by the trained warrior. However if Kanitah moved and closed on him Fury would instead slide low at the last moment and collide with Kanitah’s feet. Fury was relying on the unexpected and unorthodox nature of both attacks to see them through, because for now he was outclassed.<br/></div>"

Edging near the absolute limits of his running speed, Kanitah's body was sore from the effort he had put out during this fight, but he pressed on. At such high speeds, the distance was not only negligible, but hardly noticeable as he rocketed forwards. In his foe's left hand there was a blade of energy with killing intent literally emanating from its glow. Just a few steps after first bursting into his sprint, Kanitah raised his arms above his head and leaned down all the way horizontal. Shoving off the ground like some kind of humanoid rocket, Kanitah spiraled towards Fury at high speed. Lines of air were cut behind him as he launched himself. <br/><br/>With both arms forwards and a bit of spin added, Kanitah had a lot of similarities to an ICBM. If Fury dodged, Kanitah would straighten out his arms and catch himself on the ground. Then return to his assault on Fury. If Kanitah struck Fury, it would carry three times the force of the ruinous charge. As both of Kanitah's elbows are directly in front of him, the rings there would serve as the medium for this multiplication. <br/><br/>The impact would carry such tremendous force that the energy released from it would cause the wind behind Fury to be visibly shoved aside, blowing the dust away and bowing the grass that lays there. </div>"

Surprisingly his alien opponent had decided to launch himself off the ground, but Fury had the foresight to raise his energy glaive up into the air as he slid harmlessly underneath the flying man. The effect of this was that the sharp energy-crafted weapon would be drawn into Kanitah’s path potentially cutting whatever side of him was facing the ground as they met, aided by the significant momentum both warriors were carrying, it could very well open him up, or it might get stuck in his body and wrenched out of Fury’s hand. Regardless, Fury was coming out of what could have been a dangerous collision with no noticeable injuries and potentially doing catastrophic damage to his opponent, mostly due to luck and his original plan of sliding. His own momentum would carry him about ten feet across the ground, after which he would roll and push himself onto his feet to judge the damage he had caused, if any. </div>"

Kanitah's weight slung towards the earth and he brought his other hand around to counter balance himself. Both of his knees hit the ground with substantial force and cratered the ground below him, causing him to drop a second but softer time. A noticeable chill was in the air to him, he thought maybe night was beginning to fall for a moment. <br/><br/>It was much worse than simply night falling, Kanitah looked to the sky and saw no moon. The sun was still high in the sky, so he looked down. A steady ooze of blood was flowing from a freshly opened wound in his torso. Running from his left pectoral all the way down past his belly button, a clean cut that would have entirely gutted him if the engine hadn't been in the way. The cables that run through his chest and stomach were sliced open in several places and the skin had peeled apart to expose them to the air. <br/><br/>The cold was the blood flowing from him, and there was nothing he could really do to stop it. Not with Fury still conscious and on the attack. <br/><br/>Crouched down with both knees to the ground, Kanitah wasn't in the most opportune position for combat. Only the distance between them was keeping him safe, and knowing how quick Fury is. Kanitah was ready to react at the drop of a hat. <br/><br/>With his right hand clenching tightly around a handful of dirt, Kanitah dug into the earth. What he had done before was about to be repeated, but before he couldn't do this. With every pound of force focused into his right hand, Kanitah clenched that ball of dirt until it was as hard as stone. Extending his fingers again and clenching repeatedly to add mass to the hardened dirt ball. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Fury can shoot beams of energy.</span> He thought. <span class=""bb-i"">I can't do that, so my only ranged option is thrown objects. I hope that I can throw this hard enough.</span></div>"

With a twist he pushed himself nimbly onto his feet, wincing slightly as his broken rib sent out another sting of discomfort. Kanitah was some distance in front of him and down again, blood evident as it poured down his chest from the cutting wound Fury had inflicted with his weapon. The Fireen barely allowed himself a moment of satisfaction at his opponent’s misfortune as he launched the glaive like a discus, trying to strike down the man before he could recover. It was aimed for mid-torso.<br/><br/>As the energy-discus left his hand on its deadly path the Fireen followed it, charging after his own attack, focused and dangerous. <br/></div>"

Launching himself directly upwards and over Fury's discus of energy, evading his foe's projectile by putting himself in an advantageous position. As Kanitah rose upwards into the air he contorted his body, much like a cat contorts itself mid fall to catch itself. Drawing back his right hand along with the rest of his torso, Kanitah spun himself around in mid air before releasing the sphere of rock hard dirt in a curveball trajectory. Aimed at Fury's lower body. With a downwards angle and a wide curve added to the throw, it would hit somewhere on Fury's hips or his upper thighs. While the ball would likely explode once it struck, it would still feel like a cannonball colliding with whatever part of Fury's body it strikes.</div>"

Fury immediately caught on to Kanitah’s intention to carry out another of his super jumps, and reacted nearly as fast as he charged forward. He bounced off the ground with his right foot, energy easily propelling him through the air on a collision course with Kanitah, who although certainly strong couldn’t actually fly in a literal sense. Fury could hurtle himself through the air at speeds up to 150mph, and he used that now to catch up with the jumping man. Kanitah could have conceivably outpaced him with his incredibly strength, but he hadn’t tried to jump into the atmosphere, he was trying to spin round and remain within a realistic throwing range.<br/><br/>Because of this, Fury was almost sure to barrel into him just as he completed his revolution, rendering the rock throw pointless as the Fireen slammed his right elbow up and into Kanitah’s head or body, depending on what was convenient considering the strange movements the other man was attempting. <br/></div>"
5409,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-07-24 16:42:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">With his body spiraling in the air after his strange contortion, Kanitah didn't hear the sound of his dirt-ball colliding with anything. Instead, he felt Fury slamming into his side elbow first, with enough force to snap the three ribs at the bottom of his rib cage entirely in half. Blood was force from the open wound on his chest and Kanitah was sent careening upwards into the sky, without the ability to fly, course correction was impossible. So he was at the mercy of the machinations of his flying foe. This left him hugely open, and though he would hit the ground shortly he was still vulnerable to immediate punishing assault. Kanitah hollered as he flew through the air, feeling the blood rush to his feet and the top of his head as he careened skyward. <br/><br/>A bit of numbness running through him as pain, bloodloss, and fear continued to make themselves known to his brain. The old Pundambayan veteran was, reasonably, starting to grow concerned about his own demise. Concerned about who was going to stop Bita before she did something reckless and stupid. <br/><br/>Concerned about who was going to tell his wife to stop setting the table for him.<br/><br/>In this kind of situation, normally Kanitah would stand back up and continue to fight. But right now, he can't particularly stand up. Because he's flying through the air, so he's forced to think about this while also facing the eminent kiss of the ground upon his body.   </div>"
5410,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-07-24 19:22:00,MelonHead,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Fury drove himself into Kanitah with a crashing impact followed by the ominous splintering of bone. Blood splattered the beserking Fireen’s face and ran down his dark-blue mail armour as he gritted his teeth and delved deep into his energy reserves, which were starting to flag once again. He always was reckless with his power.<br/><br/>To the casual observer, Fury seemed completely in control of the situation and despite suffering minor injuries had done a serious number on Kanitah. However, somewhere back in Fury’s mind where he stored information he wasn’t willing to deal with, and it was quite a large vault of terrible actions and thoughts, was the belief that Kanitah could turn the tables on him at any moment. Fury had felt the power of his machine before, and he had been able to release his true power in the Unbridled form of the Void before in order to survive Kanitah’s true strength, here he was unable to draw the right motivation to follow suit. With that in mind, it wouldn’t take much for Kanitah to land a heavy blow on Fury and break his body, possibly beyond survivable levels. It was a bad situation, Fury needed injury and rage to unleash his power, but he was unable to muster the rage and any injury Kanitah inflicted on him could easily kill him outright.<br/><br/>So, there was only one option really available to Fury. He had to throw everything and the kitchen sink at the bastard before he counter-attacked. Launching Kanitah into the air was the perfect opener to such a high risk high reward strategy, because in the sky, Fury ruled. As his elbow made contact, Fury drew deep and sped after him, his left hand driving upwards in a fist to Kanitah’s body, as he quickly skirted around the man while in the air, throwing a right hook at Kanitah’s side even as the Fireen tried to get behind him. Fury’s attacks, if successful, would probably rag-doll Kanitah through the air, setting him up for the next vicious volley. Once Fury was behind him he would slam his left knee up, effectively driving it into Kanitah’s spine and shooting him up and forward into the air.<br/><br/>By this point, if Kanitah was still at Fury’s mercy or was just thrown to the ground by his knee would be difficult to deduce. <br/></div>"
5411,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-07-29 03:23:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Aside from a bit of frantic struggling, which will be detailed in a moment, Kanitah really couldn't do anything aside from get ragdolled through the air. Flying was one of the things that he would never really have the advantage of, unless he were fully armed. Any foe that had air superiority would always have the upper hand on Kanitah, and he fully accepted that. With that in mind, he wasn't entirely helpless in the air. With how much force he puts out and how much he actually weighs, a bit of mid air course correction isn't outside of his reach. Though it was always awkward and painful, especially in this sort of situation. <br/><br/>While he was thinking of his wife and a dish of Pundambayan meats and a vegetable that bears a striking resemblance to pumpkins but with a taste similar to cheese, Kanitah was struck in the side by Fury's right hook. Forcing him away from his foe once again, though it was very much evident that Fury was attempting to get underneath him. This was not, actually, the first time that he had been juggled in the air.<br/>With Fury positioning himself below Kanitah, and Kanitah now spinning because of the force put into him by the punch. Kanitah lashed out with both of his legs, aiming in all directions with random interval kicks, each carrying enough force to snap a human like a twig. A frantic, mid-air, spinning death kick. Though it made him look like a horse's ass, it was just about all he could do. <br/><br/>While he's spinning in the air, he foot might smack down on the crown of Fury's head, or maybe it'll clip him in the shoulder. Hell, it could miss entirely and he could be careening towards the nearest tree. With no way of telling while he's flailing about in the air, he won't know until he, or his kick, lands.</div>"
5412,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-07-30 18:42:00,MelonHead,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Fury’s right fist impacted with Kanitah in a crashing impact that sent the smaller warrior flying, at which point he unleashed his counter which seemed to involve a lot of flailing. Despite the relatively ineffective nature of kicking without anything to push off or any stability what-so-ever, Kanitah’s sheer strength advantage forced Fury to pull back rather than completing his combination. The end result was that Kanitah was able to flail all the way to the ground, where he would inevitably crash into the earth.<br/><br/>The Fireen’s eyes narrowed as he pursued his foe to the ground, waiting for the moment when his foe’s momentum would drive him into the earth with a predatory glare. Considering he was spinning out of control on the way down it was unlikely he’d be catching himself, so Fury intended to capitalise on his disadvantage and pursue him, dropping down quickly after the warrior only a second behind him as the earth leapt up to embrace him. If he had been more adept with his energy abilities he might have been able to finish Kanitah then, but his options were limited and so once again he relied on brute force, ploughing down directly on top of Kanitah with an armoured boot to the spine or face, depending on how Kanitah landed. It was a potentially risky move, but Kanitah was disadvantaged so Fury was hoping he’d have significant time to land and drive his falling momentum into the already stricken man.<br/></div>"
5413,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-08-01 13:32:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Despite all odds, ignoring all logic and reason, and even a little bit of physics. Somehow, Kanitah landed feet first on the ground. Facing upwards towards the foe who was coming towards him. It was so stunningly impossible that he just froze there, not even bothering to react because he was thinking about it all. For a moment, he thought to himself; <span class=""bb-i"">Huh.</span> Before a big metal boot slammed directly into his face, plowing Kanitah backwards into the ground. The force carried by Fury's foot and downwards flight made Kanitah slide across the ground like a skateboard on concrete. Earth and grass were torn apart to make way for him, Fury's boot still pressed against his face. <br/><br/>Incredible pain rolled across him, blood spilling from his now crushed nostrils. Kanitah's jaw had broken on the left side, the right side was only just faring a little better. His nose was entirely crushed and a few teeth were knocked loose inside of his mouth. If Fury's boot weren't crushing his face, he would have let out a scream. This, however, is just conjecture. <br/><br/>Lying there on the ground, Kanitah arched his back and raised his hands upwards. Kanitah's inability to move was a harsh inconvenience, and the only thing that he could do right now is hope for a grapple on Fury's ankle. Really not much else he can do from this position.</div>"
5414,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-08-01 17:45:00,MelonHead,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Fury slammed into Kanitah with his significant metallic bulk, driving him into the ground and doing terrible damage to his face. He would have grimaced, if it wasn’t for the fact that he was the one causing the hurt Kanitah was suffering. The Fireen straightened up, having fell into a half-crouch on his unstable perch with his right foot resting on Kanitah’s face. Unfortunately, before he could deliver a follow up stomp that could very well kill his foe, Kanitah arched his back and threw Fury off balance again. It was this that resulted in Kanitah amazingly managing to get a hold on the Fireen, his hand grappling his armoured ankle. The added bulk of Fury’s armour on top of already very beefy limbs however meant the hand was not all the way around his ankle, perhaps reducing its effectiveness.<br/><br/>“Just fucking give up Old Man.” Fury took the time to shout in frustration, trying to yank his right leg out of his foe’s vice-like grip and hop away from him. <br/></div>"
5415,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-08-01 19:16:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">He had somehow managed to catch Fury's leg, that was more surprising than landing on two feet. The obvious follow up to Fury's kick was to carry his momentum forwards and simply smear him across the ground, but he had instead stopped. This allowed Kanitah's hands to find a loose, but certain, gain on his leg. Though Fury violently tugged his leg away from his grasp, the Pundambayan refused to relinquish his grip. His bulk was pulled along with Fury's leg, his fingers finding province on the metal boot that surrounds the Fireen's foot. It wasn't much, but it was enough to give him leverage. <br/><br/>With all of Fury's tugging and jerking, his boot was repeatedly smacking into Kanitah's face. Pressing the already crushed bones of his nose into eachother, Kanitah's mouth was allowed to open for a second to release a pent up scream of rage and pain. Without any proper way to defend from this position he was forced to improvise.<br/><br/>Digging his gauntlet clad hands into the sides of Fury's boots with a sharp inwards pull, Kanitah began to crush the boot itself. However, he wasn't aiming to crush his leg. Kanitah rolled to the right, pulling his elbow down towards his stomach while rolling over. This movement relied on Fury's already awkward posture to topple him over and give Kanitah a proper grapple on his leg, as well as giving him the dominant mounting position. As Fury would land on his left hand side, putting the two of them into a T-shape on the ground with Kanitah being out of his foe's arm's reach.</div>"

Dangerously strong. His teeth gritted in pain as wave upon wave of screaming nerve signals ran from his damaged ribs and slowly broken foot, but he ignored them all as he was trained to and set himself to the task ahead. Kanitah began to roll, holding tightly to Fury’s leg but having gripped him at the foot he had made his task far more difficult. Like lifting a chair, when lifted from the very bottom the weight of an object grows more difficult to up-end, and Fury was offsetting any movement with his left leg firmly planted on the ground to the right of Kanitah. Then, Kanitah made the mistake of drawing Fury’s leg downwards by drawing his hand to his stomach, the natural result of which meant Kanitah was on his side as Fury’s right foot slid off his body and touched the ground, planting firmly on the earth. It left Kanitah looking like a melodramatic lover clutching his beloved’s leg, ineffectually being dragged along the ground without any sufficient leverage to stop the Fireen.<br/><br/>Though Kanitah was certainly strong, he wasn’t in a favourable position to topple Fury even with his greater strength. He’d be better off trying to hook his legs out from under him rather than topple him entirely with brute strength alone. Fury however had no intention of letting him do this, using his new access to Kanitah’s face as he turned around to slam his left leg at him in a low kick that barely saw his foot leave the ground. The gauntleted boot would probably impact Kanitah right in his injured nose, and Fury hoped it would be enough to make him let go.<br/></div>"
5417,"The Hot Headed, Heavy Hitters, Have it Out (Fury vs Kanitah, Round 2)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76028-the-hot-headed-heavy-hitters-have-it-out-fury-vs-kanitah-round-2,['Arena'],2015-08-05 21:41:00,LeeRoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Unable to resist any longer, Kanitah took the kick to the face in whole. Blood sprayed from his face as he was kicked aside by Fury, his left hand had simply let go of Fury's boot and his right hand had torn off the siding of it. He was no longer clinging to Fury's leg and simply lying there, chest heaving slowly. His right hand clenched tightly around the shard of metal in his hand. Evident that he was gripping to anything, just for a bit of comfort. <br/><br/>Lying there on the ground, Kanitah could barely see out of his left eye and his right eye had entirely swollen shut. Everything ached from his head to his toe, so much of him was broken and battered. A loud grunt escaped him as he put his left elbow to the ground, trying fruitlessly to prop himself up. To look Fury in the eyes. At most, all he could do was lean his head forwards. <br/><br/>It wasn't much, but he was pushing the ground with his feet to slide backwards. Fury's kick to the face had taken more out of him than he would have liked it to, he didn't have the strength to kick himself away. If he did, he would have just kicked the ground to have some sort of escape. Not like it would have mattered much anyway.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d"">""Poda kuwana chisa, Itaroknos.

As well, the words were slurred by his missing teeth and broken jaw. </div>"

However, what the Fireen was going through was nothing compared to the suffering he had inflicted on his foe, and he had fought through it all. On his homeworld this man’s achievements would be recorded for all time, he’d be rewarded with medals and awards that would keep him in money and fed for the rest of his life. In a just world Kanitah would have struck down his foe with a mighty blow, overcoming the pain and hardship he had faced, for justice and good.<br/><br/>This was not a just world.<br/><br/>“Die with honour.” Fury told him in his own language, an old saying reserved for finishing off dying opponents. Even if Kanitah’s translator had been working it was unlikely to have been able to communicate his words, Fireen was a dead language, and a dead people.<br/><br/>The skeletal face flashing before Fury’s eyes gave him the strength to draw himself into the Unbridled Stage, energy leaking from every pore as his strength increased ten-fold, shifting the earth at his feet and washing over the fallen warrior below him. Fury raised both hands, the energy spear forming between them shining with such intensity that one could be forgiven for assuming Fury had somehow captured the Sun. <br/><br/>“Good Bye Kanitah.” Fury told him at last, throwing all his weight down on one knee as he plunged downwards with the energy spear, aiming to drive it through Kanitah’s heart and unleash the power stored within.<br/></div>"

The Firemen has won, because he made mistakes. Excitement and fear clouded his judgement, his actions too flashy to actually work. Fury moved over him, a spear of deathly light forming between his hands. Not much to do but wait for the hand to fall.<br/><br/>Kanitah didn't close his eyes, no, he just watched the events unfold. As his blood loss slowed his senses he watched the blade fall upon him as Fury knelt to the ground. Putting himself right on top of Kanitah. <br/><br/>Strangely enough, he didn't feel anything but a slight pressure. His eye watched the rod penetrated into his heaving chest. A joke tickled at him as blood shot from his mouth. All he could do was laugh as his last thoughts weren't about home, his family, or even the successor to his word of power. They were of a shitty joke that had no punchline.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""> Doctor, doctor, I believe I have come down with a case of certain death.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""> How can you tell? </span><br/><br/>The man doesn't reply, because he's dead.<br/><br/>It was a stupid joke, yeah, but at least it was some sort of comfort. <br/><br/>As he lay there, choking on his own blood and laughing, he raised his right hand up to Fury's chin. Finally closing his eyes as his laughter turned painful, and he was still laughing hysterically. It was growing more violent and painful as the amount of laughter leaving him grew. The old man didn't know why he was reaching out, nor did he know why he was laughing so hard. Logic sort of sails out the window as your brain loses oxygen. <br/><br/>Laying there in his final moments, he didn't really expect Fury to be the one looming over him at his deathbed.</div>"

By all accounts it was probably a cleaner death than the smaller warrior would have expected from a brute like Fury. For his part the Fireen looked down on the laughing man until the end, stony face betraying nothing. He was breathing heavily, but by all accounts he had come out of the confrontation better than he expected. He stood, wincing and heavily favouring his un-injured side, turning away from Kanitah as he hobbled a few steps clear of his foe.<br/><br/>His hands strayed to his wrist, activating some device hidden there which seemed to serve some long range communications purpose. <br/><br/>“I’m done here, send in the salvage squad.” He paused for a moment, the energy-scars on his face glowing briefly. “When the device is removed bury the body where it lies, leave some marker there.”<br/><br/>“Don’t question me.”<br/></div>"

When six months passed, worry began to grow in the public eye. A petition was held, forcing government officials to ping his ship's telemetry. It was a common theory that Kanitah's ship had scuttled on some backwoods planet. When the telemetry report came back that his ship was not only docked, but it had been docked for half a year, worry grew to terror. <br/><br/>A search crew was sent out, it took another few months for them to reach the mountainous planet orbiting a main sequence star. Cursory scans revealed the location of his ship, as well as a fading heat trail left behind by another ship. Ignoring the heat trail was the biggest mistake they could have ever made, as they found the marker left behind by the Angar Ryllan recovery crew. <br/><br/>Beneath the marker was the body of Kanitah, left brutalized after combat and post-mortem surgery, as well as decayed by time. It was a grizzly sight. <br/><br/>When they returned it to Pundambaya to be buried, social uproar erupted. Media flared with sensationalized stories of who killed the Hero of Pundambaya. One such newsline led to the worst possible outcome, nothing could undo what had been done. <br/><br/>It was in Kanitah's own house, Bita had just returned that morning. The man that she had been hunting never showed up, so she was forced to return home in shame. It was almost like clockwork, she returned to her home to find her mother watching television, the news running its mouth once again about the death of Kanitah Noraha Ayna, the Hero of Pundambaya. <br/><br/>Tora, distraught that her husband was once again being used as a tool to garner views, didn't notice Bita coming in. <br/><br/>She didn't notice Bita dropping her helmet to the floor.<br/><br/>The newscaster didn't know what he was doing when he began to read the report. The headline was: ""New Theories in the Kanitah Murder.""<br/><br/>The next dialogue was the greatest mistake in the history of Pundambaya. <br/><br/>""Now, onto you, Tarsora.""<br/><br/>""Thanks, Hadoram. Our records indicate that Kanitah Noraha Ayna left Pundambaya 2 on a mission to hunt down his daughter and bring her home. Obviously he had been hurt recently, returning from one of his many adventures."" Bita's heart broke, her father had died in the search for her. She had been the cause of his death. The actions of blind frustration had driven her father to chase her, and if he hadn't chased her.<br/><br/>He would still be alive.<br/><br/>""Of course, Tarsora, that's pretty common knowledge. Hey, I was the one who reported that, day one!"" <br/><br/>""You sure were, Hadoram. The common thread seen these days, is that it might have been Bita who killed Kanitah!""<br/><br/>It was tangible how feigned his surprise was. ""No! What could lead people to that conclusion?""<br/><br/>""The killing blow and several of the wounds are consistent with energy based mysticism, and as you well know, she is a holder.""<br/><br/>""Of course, she's the holder of the Word of Desolation. What does that have to do with this, Tarsora?"" In her ears, that's all she needed to hear. She missed the sobbing of her mother in the room nearby, she missed the next few back and forths of the casters. Ringing was all she heard now. A vein bulged in Bita's forehead as the caster's went on and on, accusing her of fratricide. Anger seethed in her, boiling her blood in her veins with a combination of panic and rage.<br/><br/>A few words got to her from the television. ""While this theory is mostly insubstantial, law enforcement has put out an APB for Bita Noraha Stroma. If she is found, she is to be reported immediately. If you are watching this, the law wishes to speak to you for questioning. If you have nothing to hide, then turn yourself in.""<br/><br/>Something in Bita snapped. <br/><br/>Everything in her world had come crumbling down around her in one foul swoop. <br/><br/>Kanitah, her father, dead because of her.<br/><br/>Tora, her mother, grieving because of her.<br/><br/>Pundambaya, her home, lost a hero because of her.<br/><br/>And now the world believed that she was her father's murderer. <br/><br/>In a rage induced panic, Bita snatched her helmet from the floor and ran out the door. Tora didn't even know she had returned, her sobbing had drowned out her footsteps. <br/><br/>It would be months before Bita was heard from again. <br/><br/>Dark Lock, a military outpost on Pundambaya 5. That's where Bita was found.<br/><br/>Dark Lock is a top secret installation where only Highly Trained Word Holders with Pundambayan Relics are chosen for the guard rotation, a single shift can last months. In the hellish wastes of the derelict planet, the weakest guards are often killed off to protect the secrets that are held within. <br/><br/>Years ago, Bita had been chosen to guard this place. She knew what was here, and she wanted it. <br/><br/>Fully armed, Bita was a terrifying force to reckon with. <br/><br/>An Occult Word of tremendous power.<br/><br/>A perfected Word Engine.<br/><br/>An Ancient Pundabayan Relic.<br/><br/>And a High Mobility Pack.<br/><br/>The guards put up a fearsome resistance, violently fighting her to the best of their abilities. It was days on days of non-stop fighting, with numerous breaks inbetween. There was no chance of back-up for the guards, and no chance of escape for Bita. <br/><br/>Something had broken inside of her, a hole had opened up where her heart had once been. This lead to a desperation to fill the whole with power, and the Dark Well was the only source of power great enough.<br/><br/>Seven days of fighting, thirty two men were killed by Bita's hand. She was not left unharmed, most of her body was broken. Her engine kept her pieced together well enough to crawl to the gates. Forced to use her word again, just to open the door, she blasted her way inside and dredged herself to the edge of a stinking quagmire of pulsating ooze. <br/><br/>This, is the Dark Well. <br/><br/>A thick murky liquid that changes from red to black to brown to silver, it is the combined liquid essence of four demigods that sacrificed all of their power to create a new god in their place. It had failed, and instead created a seed of corruption unparalleled in the known universe.<br/><br/>Through the broken mask of her helmet, she saw faces of the demigods who had chosen to create this. They muttered words of godspeak to her, the ancient tongue clawing at her brain painfully. Mortal ears were never meant to be graced with the language of the gods. <br/><br/>They spoke beautiful and terrible things to her, compelling her to reach within.  For a moment, memories of her father. Words of motivation, telling her that what she was doing was wrong. Telling her to go back. <br/><br/>She was too deep into this now, turning back wasn't an option.<br/><br/>Her left hand shot into the pool, followed by her right hand. Immediately the suit was torn away from her flesh, painfully destroying it as it entered the pool. Bita raised her hands to her helmet and poured it over her face and into her mouth. <br/><br/>Immediately noticeable was the pain, it hurt more than anything had ever hurt before. <br/><br/>No mortal entity witnessed her transformation, maybe some curious gods or ascendant beings watched, but nobody of great benevolence. As she was not interrupted. <br/><br/>The darkness filled her, changed her on a profound level. Mutating her body into an aspect of desolation and war, merely a shadow of her former self. <br/><br/>From the well she departed to the stars, the inhospitable hands of space gripping her gently as her new form revealed new ability.<br/><br/>Bita's mind, body, and spirit united and twisted. Like different putties in the hands of a child, molded into a new form that steals aspects from all three. <br/><br/>The Dark Well had turned Bita into death incarnate. <br/><br/>Into the stars she flew, the only thing driving her now? <br/><br/>Revenge.</div>"

It doesn't take much time at all for Fury's arm to move into Kanitah's range and then back out again, especially with a jab.<br/><br/>You just have to look at how quickly someone can throw that punch to see that trying to brush it away would be incredibly difficult, it's far faster than moving ones arm up to brush it away. <br/><br/>The flip side being that a jab doesn't really do much damage, from a wider standpoint. </div>"

If you strike me with the rings and don't bother to explain that they numb people's bodies or something and then point to your CS it doesn't count for anything, that's how tournaments like WOTW ran in the past where you never actually get to see your opponent's character sheet.<br/><br/>Unless we're not working with T1, but I don't really fight in any other fashion. </div>"

He's trying to numb the arm with repeated strikes, this is just one of many. Sorry if I wasn't entirely clear about that. The upward strike would have three times the effect of a normal strike, as his rings add 2x the force to each strike on top of the normal strike. Making each strike 3x as effective as a normal strike. It wouldn't break or even come close to disabling his arm as of yet, but since his arm was already struck by a previous blow, a follow up would cause it to sting even worse. <br/><br/>And on Kanitah's nasal bone; Cracked, as in slight breakage. Like, barely a splinter, but still noticeable enough to cause pain. Nothing that would cause a nosebleed, and not even a significant enough injury in real life for someone to stop fighting. But remember that Kanitah is old. Certain things are worse on him than they would be on other people. </div>"

I was aware your rings had some sort of momentum increasing ability, but I wasn't technically obligated to have Fury injured by your initial attack any more than if it had just been a stand-up attack. Even your characters strength isn't necessarily taken into account unless you make note of the sort of damage it -could- cause, that's where I usually reference the damage my strike would do to a normal human for reference sake. <br/><br/>Just a pointer for T1 fighting, I'm sure not everyone follows the rules but it also just makes for better reading, as you can't expect any audience you may have to know the characters involved or to have even read the sheets at all. </div>"

You're right LeeRoy a skilled fighter can counter another skilled fighter.  But for what it's worth, usually you check a low kick with a kick. A kick to the thigh/hip area you try and block/catch with a single hand because you still have a hand free and can easily control your opponent if you get the foot. Sweep or a step in and solid punch/kick, or hell even a take down can be accomplished from here. But I never use both hands and leave myself without any way to retaliate.<br/><br/>For instance LeeRoy you could have written-<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522""><span class=""bb-i"">Seeing the man take his stance, closing the distance, Kanitah spread his feet apart slightly. Rising on to the balls of his feet, the smaller man turned his body slightly towards the approaching Fury. When the larger man launched his knee strike, Kanitah, being an accomplished fighter met the kick with a cross knee check, lifting the left knee presenting the harder point to meet Fury’s foot. </span></font><br/><br/>Or you could have done- <br/><br/><font color=""#7ea7d8""><span class=""bb-i"">Seeing the man take his stance, closing the distance, Kanitah spread his feet apart slightly. Rising on the balls of his feet, the smaller man turned his body slightly towards the approaching Fury. When the larger man launched his knee strike, Kanitah, being an accomplished fighter merely shifted his stance, sliding his left leg back along the grass/rock ground. The simple move left naught but air for Fury’s attempted strike. Having switched his stance, with the right hand and leg now forward, Kanitah launched his own strike at the man known as Fury. The lead jab/thrust kick was aimed for the exposed hip of the balancing foot. Of course Fury might block, or even catch the foot, but Kanitah was not with his own tricks if that happened. </span></font></div>"

Fury would still land on top of him, that's not his goal. He's trying to hurt Fury as much as possible before the grapple on the ground happens.<br/><br/>In effect he's kneeing Fury's shoulder to cause it pain, possibly dislocate it, and make it less effective, as well as delivering a blow to the top of his head as they're careening towards the ground. Again, to make him less effective. <br/><br/>However, the cost of this sort of assault is a guaranteed lower body pin. If they were in a ring, Kanitah wouldn't have considered this as it would instantly put him to the mat. But, since they're outside in what's comparable to a random street fight, it's a useful move. Because there's nobody there to start count down because he's pinned.</div>"

The proximity is one limiting factor, Fury's energy blasts into the path of his arms is another (this served what would in a human fight been popping Kanitah's elbows up to get under his guard, though Kanitah's arm being in the air did half of this for him.)<br/><br/>I'm just going to make my post with how I think the grab would go down now, as this is unfamiliar ground for me as well.</div>"

He's not attacking, he's blocking. His knee being raised up and intercepting the shoulder is what would be considered the attack. The effect of Darligrov would activate when Fury's shoulder and Kanitah's knee meet.<br/><br/>He's not lunging forward to knee at him, he's standing still and raising his knee.<br/><br/>Ah, must have misread the blasts part.

I was under the impression that it was Fury's shoulder vs your knee, in which his armour would leave him relatively unscathed, but if you're utilizing your rings then his armour would probably be shattered, as it's particularly vulnerable to blunt force.<br/><br/>Also, do your rings simply work off momentum of contact then? I remember reading (this was like a year ago though) that they activated by multiplying the force of Kanitah's blows, but do they in fact just multiply the damage of any contact between Kanitah and an opponent? The distinction is sort of important.</div>"

Sort of like having a warhammer attached to your limbs, the warhammer makes a fairly powerful human movement into something far more devastating by increasing the pressure of the movement and the weight of the object you're hitting something with.<br/><br/>If they can reflect any force against them then 1. you should have easily beaten Fury in our first fight 2. this fight has become about 5x harder for me.</div>"

Fury needs to get his left leg around Kanitah's right hand side to obtain the full mount.

(I think maintaining contact is important in grappling with two super humans, because they have to contest eachother with strength rather than using body weight which most fighters would use, being down on ones back isn't really that much of a disadvantage to an opponent that can easily throw Fury's weight around like it's a bag of flour)<br/><br/>It's kind of a complicated situation.

His knees are barely if at all touching the ground, though they would still probably be clenching your character's hips. His chest doesn't have to be directly on top of Kanitah's as your own arms width would increase the distance between the two characters, but this wouldn't help Kanitah punch with them, they'd still be sandwiched. <br/><br/>Besides which, as I've already mentioned, Fury doesn't really care about anything other than establishing a choke by which he can steal enough energy to sustain any attack Kanitah launches, while simultaneously killing him. <br/><br/>But regardless, though you have many options available, I think that launching an attack with your hands in that fashion is unrealistic, and maybe even impossible. </div>"

Fury will still be holding onto your head and your arms will still be crushed (because Fury can use his arms and knees to keep himself close to Kanitah, where-as Kanitah has a very limited ability to push and use his own strength. Literally all he gains is his weight on top of Fury, which neither of us would have any reason to care about.</div>"

(I'm not sure there's any physical way Kanitah could stop him, other than trying to lift his legs up and catch Fury like a crab or something.) But it's highly unlikely Kanitah would have chance to react to Fury suddenly not being there in that way, the weakside to exerting a lot of strength to an action (like forcing open a door with shoulder barges for example) is that when someone suddenly abandons all their resistance, your momentum carries you with an unexpected lurch.<br/><br/></div>"

Kanitah does have insane reflexes though, so I suppose I can't question it if you say he can realise that quickly what was happening and react.<br/><br/>I'm not going to contest the rolling situation because I don't fully understand what's going on, and a reset isn't that big a deal for Fury now as I said he's got some energy to fight effectively with again.</div>"

That's a fairly acrobatic move for someone whose face just got re-arranged. I'm not saying it's impossible, but considering the fight from relatively human terms after the beating Fury just gave Kanitah he should be rocked a little bit, that's why I assumed he went in for the clinch (well, grappled Fury's leg, but same effect) because he needed time to recover, and I figured if boxers do it all the time there was no reason why Kanitah couldn't. I didn't expect him to be able to make good on his grab while Fury is trying to pull away, and then do the equivalent of a super ground-backflip. <br/><br/>I mean, fair enough it's your character, but that's pretty formidable. It's not like I have no options either, but it still seems a little off from a realism stand-point.<br/><br/>Also, don't disregard Fury's strength. Though he's outmatched significantly with your machine running, Kanitah can lift roughly 40 tonnes at the moment, where-as Fury can lift 10, however you have to consider that Fury has a significant advantage in trying to free his leg, as he can utilize the strength of both legs and the nature of his armour makes holding onto him fairly difficult.<br/><br/>Just saying, as it seems like you didn't even mention in your post that Kanitah was directly contending Fury's strength, it was like he was just standing there letting his leg get grabbed.</div>"

Definitely. Though noticeably not the strongest. Considering the only injury Fury has sustained are a few broken ribs and now a slightly crushed ankle.<br/><br/>Put simply, surviving is all he can really do at this point. He cant throw punches anymore because his leading hand is broken and he doesn't have enough stamina to run anymore. His leather hard skin, rock hard bones, and metal coated muscles are keeping his organs protected.<br/><br/>I figured you would have picked up on him no longer trading with Fury and simply taking the hits. Kanitah stopped counterattacking a few posts back because he has already, in all honesty, lost. His last offensive attempt, aside from the poor grapple, was a dirt ball that was doomed to fail from the start. <br/><br/>Other than that, his last truly threatening attack was the full speed ram. I kinda figured you would have seen that after 9 posts of Kanitah just taking the hits.</div>"

He wasn't utilizing his main weapon very effectively throughout the fight and it cost him. He should have just punched the shit out of Fury at every given opportunity, even when he grabbed Fury's foot he could have just lashed out wildly with an elbow and snapped the bone instantly with his insane hitting momentum booster rings. </div>"

This was, however, not the case.<br/><br/>I always take into account every feature of the character I'm playing, and Kanitah's personality is his biggest weakness. Over analyzing and over thinking tend to get him in trouble. Like right now, if he had've just tried to crush Fury with repeated punches?

Kanitah has tried to grab Fury at least on three separate occasions, in fact the most effective method for dealing damage with the least contact would have been to have just unloaded with a shit-load of punches. If anything, from what Kanitah knows of Fury he's engaged him in the exact opposite way you'd have expected him to. <br/><br/>Also, Fury is limited in the same way by his mentality. He could easily just fly around telekenetically blasting Kanitah with shit. However something no one has noticed yet is that Fury actually doesn't like flying very much, understandably as its not a natural power of the Fireen.</div>"

As a result, she often uses Japanese in her conversations.<br/>Main Theme Song: Gumi - Panda Hero<br/><br/>Name: Kiroketsu<br/>Age: Around 20<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Bag Guardian Spirit<br/>Powers: Changing color, flight, reading Sephie's thoughts through their link<br/>Description: Kiroketsu used to be a regular demon, but he was killed for the crime of theft from the grand castle at the Demon Highlands after attempting to get a golden ring to propose to his one true love. He woke up finally when Sephie got the bag she keeps around her waist at the age of 8. Now, he is a nearly 10-ft purple spirit creature with bright green eyes, a large grin, a tail, cat-like pointed ears, and claws. He also has a particularly long tongue, which he often uses as an extra limp for carrying things. Or to annoy people. Be warned: Kiroketsu is a bit...perverted.<br/>Main Theme Song: Miku (Or the Glutamine Cover :3) - When Crooks Laugh<br/><br/>Name: Amarasuru (Ammi)<br/>Age: ???<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Fiery Cat Goddess<br/>Powers: Manipulating golden flames for healing or combat purposes.<br/>Description: Ammi is a grizzly bear-sized black house cat with silver spots, sapphire-blue eyes, and wings made up of golden flame. She is the goddess of motherly prowess and healing. Before she was a goddess, she was mostly the same, minus the flaming wings. She worked as a nurse for Sephie's friends, but spiraled into depression after all 3 of her children, and her love, were steadily killed off. Eventually, she lost her life fighting off the very person that killed her family, but was reborn as a goddess. Though her flames usually heal most ailments, she still carries the same medical pack that she strapped around her waist when still alive. Ammi loves children, and considers almost everyone she cares about to be one of her own.<br/><br/>Name: Amber<br/>Age: Around 16?<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Living Shadow (used to be a wolf demon)<br/>Powers: Melting into any dark place, shapeshifting<br/>Description: Amber is an entity made up of shadow, therefore her skin and outfit are black, with some variations of gray in certain parts. She wears a crazy, cartoonish-looking dress with bows, a belt, and striped tights. Her eyes are a glowing yellow with no pupils, and she has claws, wolf ears, and a wolf tail. Her hair is curled up at the ends, and goes down to her shoulders. Amber used to be a regular wolf demon girl in the Demon highlands, but after she tried to attack and eat Sephie, she ended up dead. As a ghost, she haunted Clancy for awhile, until he was killed, and the two of them became insane, laughing, murderous shadows together. The pair should NEVER be separated by force...<br/>Main Theme Song: Rin &amp; Len - Trick and Treat<br/><br/>Name: Clancy<br/>Age: Maybe 16?<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Living Shadow (used to be a cat demon)<br/>Powers: Shapeshifting, melting into any dark place<br/>Description: Clancy is an entity made up of shadow, so his skin and clothes are all black, or variations of gray for some places. He wears a crazy, cartoonish-looking suit with buttons, a bow tie, clownish shoes, and outlandish patterns. His eyes are a glowing yellow with no pupils, and he has claws, cat ears, and a cat tail. Clancy used to be a famous assassin working for the ultimate ruler of the Demon Highlands, but after he was given Sephie as a target, he was doomed. After his first failed attempt, Amber started haunting him, but they got along quite well. The second attempt at killing Sephie ended up in Clancy dying, where he then joined Amber and became a murderous, insane, and laughing shadow with her. The pair should NEVER be separated by force...<br/>Main Theme Song: Rin &amp; Len - Trick and Treat<br/><br/>Name: Kayori<br/>Age: 13<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Half werewolf, half living shadow.<br/>Powers: Sort of controlling her shadow arm (still learning), turning into a shadow wolf cub or beast<br/>Description: Kayori is a smaller girl with short black hair, silver eyes, and a black birthmark vertically running across her right one. She wears a red and gold kimono with an odd design, and a matching gold headband with a bow on top. Her left arm, instead of being normal, is a huge shadow arm, which drags along on the ground behind her when she walks. Kayori came from the year 8012, to escape the horrific splitting of the world, which would release underworld demons and unlimited living shadows onto the surface. Her mother only married a living shadow because she was threatened, then gave her life to distract the authorities, and send Kayori into one of the remaining time machines. Kayori is Felixter's girlfriend, and lab assistant. She can also be a bit...stalker-ish of him...<br/>Main Theme Song: Vocaloids - Near Future City<br/><br/>Name: Mirui<br/>Age: Looks about 16 or 17, but is really only a couple years<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Monster Girl (Felixter hasn't given the species a name yet)<br/>Powers: Controlling animals, growing out her fangs and claws, coloring things through her own inner magic using her tail and fingertips.<br/>Description: Mirui was a monster created by Felixter in a bout of dangerous insanity. She's tall girl, around 7 feet or so, with bluish-green skin, long fangs that stick out of her mouth, long black claws for nails, and short-ish, messy dark blue hair. She has a very long cream-colored tail with reddish rings around it, like a lemur's, and tall, cat-like, pointy black ears. Uncovering her hair for a full view of her neck reveals fish fins also, and her eyes are a bright yellow. She wears a golden brown dress with a darker brown collar, ribbon, and details. To create her, Felixter went out and slaughtered different animals and people, taking parts back to the lab and combining them into a machine he made. By the time he snapped out of it, it was already too late. Most people run at the sight of Mirui, if they don't know her, but she's actually one of the nicest people in Sephie's group. Though her eyes are yellow, Mirui's trigger color is yellow, and she becomes extremely upset upon seeing large quantities of the color for some unknown reason...<br/>Main Theme Song: Miku - Ronde of Possible World<br/><br/>Name: Ryoku<br/>Age: A few years technically, but died young<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Little Fox Angel<br/>Powers: Black smoke manipulation<br/>Description: Ryoku was Ammi's first child, but he didn't live long enough to age much, or learn to speak. He in a bear cub-sized black fox kit with silver at the tip of his tail, and grayish-blue eyes. He's also got a pair of smoke-colored angel wings coming from his back. Ryoku was born to Ammi and her first love, Korumatsu, years ago. They wanted to keep it a surprise for their friends, so they planned to wait a week after having the baby to tell Sephie or any others. However...the night before they were going to, an evil force (later discovered to be Nimika) broke in and killed the week-old infant, despite Ammi's efforts. Ryoku can't speak, but he can write, so he takes a dry erase board and blue marker around with him.<br/>Main Theme Song: Miku - Don't Look at Me in That Way<br/><br/>Name: Cloudessa (Cloudy)<br/>Age: A few years technically, but was killed young<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Little Cat Angel<br/>Powers: Summoning storm clouds<br/>Description: Cloudessa is Ammi's third child, and her youngest daughter. She's a small, bear cub-sized gray tabby kitten with a white belly, muzzle, and big, shining green eyes. She's got a pair of white angel wings coming from her back as well. CLoudy's fur is unusually soft, and she loves to cuddle. She's a cheerful, caring little soul, who cares deeply for her friends and mother. The day that Cloudy was killed by Jackal and she was forced up into the Heavens, it was said to have sprinkled, because of her tears. She was reunited with her mother and friends as soon as the Celestial Bird granted her permission to travel the surface world.<br/>Main Theme Song: Miku - We Should Not do Bad Things<br/><br/>Name: Maverick<br/>Age: Less than a year<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Young Cat God of Blades<br/>Powers: Turning into a huge monster version of himself, turning parts of himself into metal blades. <br/>Description: Maverick is Ammi's fourth child, and the only child she's had while a Goddess. He's sized even bigger than a bear cub, though he's technically the youngest of her children. His fur is completely white, and his demon-like eyes are blood red with darker flecks surrounding the orange pupils. He also has scarier fangs, sharp-edged purple demon's wings, and claws made of large metal blades. Maverick started out as the Master's test of a way to make himself into a god. He created the child, but it needed to be implanted into a mother for it to grow. Ammi never intended to take that position, but one of her own friends ended up backstabbing her (quite literally) with the syringe. It was fast growing, and but a day or two later, Maverick was born.<br/>Main Theme Song: </font></div>"

In said form, he is a fluffy pink demon creature with tall horns, a classic arrow-shaped tail, and black eyes with white pupils and red circles surrounding them. He wears a black cape, decorated with the red and purple symbol of the Demon Highlands. The same goes for the boots he wears as well. His past beyond the birth of Sephie's mother and his plans for them are shrouded in mystery to everyone, aside from him and two other entities. Though he looks small and non-threatening, he is truly one of the most malicious pariahs in existence, controlling everyone in the Demon highlands, and finding new ways to torture Sephie's group each day they remain alive.<br/><br/>Name: Lucille<br/>Age: ???<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: A Queen, straight from the royal neighborhood of Hell.<br/>Powers: Manipulation of shadowy black aura, charming/hypnotism through eye contact<br/>Description: Lucille is a very tall woman, just a foot or two away from Kiroketsu's nearly 10-foot height. She wears a detailed black funeral dress with a black veiled hat, which covers her unnaturally beautiful hazel eyes for safety reasons. Her dark silver hair is impossibly long, trailing at least a foot or two behind her on the floor at all times. Lucille made a deal with Sephie and Felixter, after losing all 9 of their lives during a large war with Kebaratsu, that they could come back to the surface world as many times as they liked, if they took side jobs as her hellions, slaughtering whoever she wished. Lucille is known to love children, but despise men (mostly the particularly jerkish or sleazy ones) because of her past as a human. She's also known for having some sort of past with Kebaratsu, which makes them bitter enemies.<br/><br/>Name: ""The Demon King"", Akutozar<br/>Age: Estimated in the 50's<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Royal Demon Beast<br/>Powers: Shapeshifting into a more handsome, more human-like demon form (through the help of a magic ring)<br/>Description: In his regular form, Akutozar is a big, beefy red-skinned demon creature with big sets of claws, hooves for feet, and a piggish face. He wears fancy royal robes, of course, and has a pretty big ego. A long time ago, he was secretly hired by Kebaratsu to become the Demon King, and then later ordered by him to marry Sephie, so she'd fade away into a sad, restricted life in the castle. She escaped before the wedding, and after chasing her down and being defeated by her several times, Akutozar now finds himself truly desiring her. He was killed by Sephie awhile back, but was resurrected in Kebaratsu's labs.<br/><br/>Name: ""Jackal"", Wulf<br/>Age: Possibly his 30's<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Creature: Some breed of Werewolf.<br/>Powers: Extreme strength, when needed.<br/>Description: Jackal is basically a large, dusty brown wolf who wears a tan trench coat, greenish-brown shorts, and a hat. He has sharp Amber eyes, and usually large claws. He of the few non-demon residents of the Demon Highlands, employed as a bounty hunter and assassin for Kebaratsu and the Demon King. He also now takes to role of best friend to the idiot Demon King, and tries to keep him from getting himself killed while chasing Sephie. He was killed by Felixter awhile back, and turned into a ghost for awhile. Nimika then had him possess and slowly murder Ammi's youngest daughter. He was recently brought back to regular life through resurrection in Kebaratsu's labs.<br/><br/>Name: Blossomei<br/>Age: A couple years, perhaps.<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Was a cat like Ammi, but is now also a Living Shadow<br/>Powers: Electricity manipulation, shapeshifting, melting into any dark place.<br/>Description: Blossomei was Ammi's second child, and oldest daughter. She's a cat like Ammi, and comes close to being around 4 or 5 feet tall, just a bit shorter than her mother. Though she's a shadow now, and has a form made of blacks and grays like shadows usually have, she prefers taking the form of herself when she was still alive. Her fur is a calico mix of gold, red, black, silver, white, orange, brown, tan, and blue-gray. Her eyes are red, and there's a silver skull marking on her forehead. Blossomei was ""Death's child"", and her mother fought to protect her from being bound to the underworld. Blossomei stayed with her mother for awhile, and picked up her practices as a nurse, but eventually, the allure of evil was too great, and she went off to join Amber and Clancy. Nevertheless...Ammi still loves her.</font></div>"

She's almost always seen wearing a very fancy red and raspberry-colored dress with a matching witch hat that her horns poke out of. She also has large, spiky red demon wings, and wears lethally-sharp shoes that look like a combination of boots and high heels. Nimika is a vicious woman, and a top servant for Kebaratsu, ""the Master"" of the Demon Highlands. She slaughtered Ammi's family, then Ammi, and many others from Sephie's group of friends. Her specialty is curses, specifically binding people to precious gems, keeping them trapped in a monochrome limbo while wearing their pretty prisons as jewelry.

She also has dark green demon wings she can unfurl, and wears matching green boots with buckles. Natasha is second in command when it comes to Kebaratsu's 6 witches, right next to the eldest sister, Nimika. She takes just as much enjoyment out of people's pain as Nimika does. Her specialty is sending her magic into someone through their bloodstream, finding out their greatest fears, and having them hallucinate until they break down completely.</font><br/>Main Theme Song: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR8mfN6VXn0"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR8mfN6VXn0</a> (C-Clays - Sadistic Empty Swing)<br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Name: Nelodine (Blue III)<br/>Age: 15<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Demon Witch<br/>Powers: Shapeshifting, curses, song sorcery<br/>Description: Nelodine is a particularly petite young girl, with sky-blue eyes, curly blonde hair that flows just a bit past her shoulders, and long black claws for nails. She's almost always seen wearing a relatively fancy dress made up of different shades of blue, and a witch hat to match that her horns poke out of. Nelodine was originally the 3rd of the 6 witch sisters, but because of her own gentle, caring personality, she found that she didn't fit in with her cruel sisters, and was constantly abused by them. She attempted escape to Sephie's rebel group three times. The first time, they cut off her natural demon wings. The second time, they locked her up at the top floor of the tower they lived in, seldom letting her out. The third time, Nelodine made it out by singing herself a new pair of wings and soaring away. However, soon afterwards, they found her, and Natasha stabbed out her eyes. Ammi healed her later, but she was permanently damaged even so. She now wears blue glasses because of it.</font><br/>Main Theme Song: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG7i4uWpgUg"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG7i4uWpgUg</a> (EastNewSound - White Wish)<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d"">Name: Numirra (Orange IV)<br/>Age: 21-ish<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Demon Witch<br/>Powers: Shapeshifting, curses, manipulation of electricity and technology<br/>Description: Numirra is an average sized woman with red-orange eyes, regular brown hair put into one long ponytail, freckles, and long black claws for nails. She is almost always seen wearing a fancy dress composed of different shades of orange and yellow, as well at a matching witch hat that her horns poke out of. She also has a pair of jagged orange demon wings that she can unfurl. Numirra is the 4th of the 6 witch sisters, created initially to take Nelodine's place after she fled to be with Sephie's group of friends. Numirra always looks bored and spaced out, but be warned, she's always paying attention. She plays the ""dumb/not paying attention"" card many, many times, even when around her sisters. Numirra's specialty is with electronics and machines, meaning she could easily take control of lights, fans, plug-in or automated weapons...ect. Numirra seems to be on the Master's side of evil...but every once in awhile, she casts some sort of kindness towards her little sister, Nelodine.</font><br/>Main Theme Song: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8BvtkyrZVM"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8BvtkyrZVM</a> (EastNewSound - Fractal Cage)<br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">Name: Noruani (Lavender V)<br/>Age: Between 4 and 5<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Creature: Demon Witch<br/>Powers: Shapeshifting, curses, ability, telepathic sensory of information/unusual amount of intelligence<br/>Description: Noruani is the youngest and smallest of the witch sisters, with bright mauve eyes, dark reddish-brown hair put into two bushy pigtails, and long black claws for nails. She is almost always seen wearing a fancy dress made of shades of purple, with a bit of pink, and a matching witch hat that her horns just barely poke through. She also has a pair of cute little pinkish=purple demon wings she can unfurl. Noruani prides herself on being the most knowledgeable of the 6 witch sisters, despite being the youngest. She has an uncanny ability to sense the opponent's moves and what they could be thinking of doing as well. It was said that in the lab, where all 6 witches were made, the Master put some of his own DNA in when making Noruani.

She is almost always seen wearing a fancy, but slightly torn dress made up of different shades of brown, with a matching witch hat that her horns poke through. She also has a pair of strangely fuzzy dark brown demon wings she can unfurl. Nymne is the 6th witch sister, and because of how savage she looks, Nimika keeps her locked up in the basement of the Master's lair where they all lived. It is said by her sisters that Nymne is a savage beast, unable to talk in anything but animal noises, but that's just what Nymne hopes they think of her. She's actually the most clever of the 6 sisters, and can talk perfectly fine. She often sneaks books down into the basement, able to easily break her chains and slide out when everyone's gone. Often, Nimika throws people who she wishes to get rid of down into Nymne's lair, but instead of killing them, Nymne makes it look as if she did, and lets the person escape. It is all in her plan. Her plan to gain a following and have Nimika killed, so she can take over instead...</font><br/>Main Theme Song: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMpqffODqBc"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMpqffODqBc</a> (C-Clays - ViazravaNa)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ed1c24"">The Two Secrets (Hidden Witch Sisters)~</font></span></span><br/><br/>Name: ???

This effectively allows him to move at superhuman speed, as well as react inhumanly fast. He can also use this power to accelerate projectiles, making them far more dangerous. His acceleration can be turned around into deceleration, but the farther away a target is the less effect it has. It's also really hard for him to accelerate and decelerate at the same time.<br/><br/>[Entropy]<br/>By touching something, Aeon is able to rapidly accelerate it's life cycle. This allows rapid entropy to destroy it. He can cause wood to rot away, and stone to crumble into dust. He's unable to affect living beings with this power, unless he holds them for an extended period of time. The process can also be reversed, allowing him to reconstruct things that have been destroyed. As with the negative side of this power, this is less effective on living beings. He can heal wounds, if given time, but he cannot bring the dead back to life.<br/><br/>[Delay]<br/>Once more limited through touch, Aeon is able to delay an action or effect. He can punch you in a way that you'd only feel an hour after it happened. He can also use this to delay damage inflicted on himself, although this requires constant concentration. There is no opposite to this power. The longest time something can possibly be delayed is 4 hours, and if Aeon's concentration is broken all delayed events will instantly occur.<br/><br/>Description:<br/>A tall white humanoid, with no external features besides the two glowing green orbs where one would expect it's eyes. It wears a pair of jeans and a black tshirt to contrast with it's pale skin. <br/><br/>Bio: The Nebula system was once ruled by a godlike being of unknown origins. With it's mere whims it controlled the worlds, and all those on it. A fickle God who brought both joy and despair to those realms it ruled, simply for it's own amusement. However, due to an unknown and mysterious cataclysm, this ancient being was destroyed. The various parts of it's body were scattered. However, even the remains of it's magic were enough to revive the shards of it's corpse into individual beings. Each retained some small fraction of the being's power, gaining control over a Domain. For Aeon, this was Time.</div>"

The two shadows skip down the corridor to meet everyone else. A ripple of horror goes through Sephie's entire group of friends at the sight of them.
""H-how did THEY get here?!"" Sephie cries.
""They're Amber and Clancy, Sephie."" Felixter sighs, shaking his head slowly. ""When will there ever be a place where they cannot follow and stalk?""
""Good point..."" Sephie mutters quietly.
""What? You'll give us Kiroketsu?"" Amber gasps with an ecstatic look, turning to Fedora-man.
""Sounds like a good deal to me!"" Clancy cheers.
""NO, WAIT, WHAT?! DON'T GIVE ME TO THEM, WHY WOULD YOU EVEN DO THAT?!"" Kiroketsu shouts in immediate protest.
""....Face it, you're the least useful of us."" Meora shrugs.
""SO MEAN."" Kiroketsu sobs.

His ears perk up when he heard Fedora-man whispering to the shadows, and he whips around toward them with a start.
""HEY!"" Kiroketsu shouts. ""I GOT THESE BIG CAT EARS, SEE? I CAN HEAR YOU!""
A mischievous glint flicks across the eyes of the shadows, as well at Meora and Sephie.
""Aw, c'mon, Kiro! He's only exaggerating!"" Amber waves off his concern.
""Yeah! It's probably just got a little extra pepper or hot sauce to it."" Clancy does the same.
""You think I trust you?! Look, I'll admit that I can be kinda stupid, but I'm not THAT stupid!"" Kiroketsu replies.
""Oh, what, Kiro-kun? Are you not brave enough?"" Meora taunts.
""Sheesh, and I thought you were sad as a guardian before..."" Sephie tsks at him.
For whatever reason, the taunts from the two girls actually works of Kiroketsu. ""FINE! I'LL SHOW YOU!"" He ends up huffing in determination, then shoving the whole sandwich into his mouth. He chews for less than a minute and swallows the whole thing. Kiroketsu crosses his arms with a smug, satisfied smirk.
""HA! See? It wasn't that bad!"" Kiroketsu says.
""3..."" Sephie starts.
""Ni..."" Meora continues.
""ONE!"" Amber and Clancy both cheer. At that exact moment, Kiroketsu starts screaming and running around, his mouth feeling like it was just doused in lava mixed with the hottest hot sauce imaginable.
""EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAGH!"" Kiroketsu rushes around in circles, tears streaming from his eyes. He skids to a halt on his knees in front of Ammi. ""AMS, OH PLEASE AMS LIGHT ME ON FIRE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.""
""W-what?!"" Ammi blinks in bewilderment.
""THE FLAMES. T-THEY'LL COOL ME OFF! PLEASE!"" Kiroketsu begs. Both of the shadows, Sephie, and Meora have erupted into laughter off to the side.

""M-maybe some real grub might actually help my tongue..."" Kiroketsu mutters optimistically to himself, but his hopes end up dashed as soon as Danter stops him on the way to the dining hall.
""N-No spirits?! What?! Man, that's prejudice!"" Kiroketsu complains aloud. He looks over at Sephie's group. ""W-what if Sephie and the others get attacked in there, and she ends up needing my protection?!""
""Since when have you cared about your job?"" Sephie raises a brow back at Kiroketsu.
""She'll be fine with me and Felixter-kun around for sure. Daijobu."" Meora adds.
Kiroketsu frowns at these remarks, and in a desperate flurry, he targets Ammi.
""W-wait! You're gonna let Ammi in?! She's dead! She's pretty much just a glorified spirit!"" Kiroketsu tries to point out.
""Oh, Kiro."" Ammi chuckles. ""Nice try, but no matter what you say, a goddess is still different from a spirit. Perhaps you can go ahead and get comfy in some room in the hotel while you wait for us. Maybe you could explore.""
Kiroketsu is left speechless as everyone abandons him for the dining hall. He looks down at the water he was given, and lets out a miserable sigh.
""I hope someone nicer gets here soon...maybe Omoina or Mirui...that'd be great...or maybe Mancy..."" Kiroketsu mumbles.
""It's okay, Kiroketsu! We'll stay out here with you!"" Amber skips towards the guardian spirit with a cheerful air, and a huge shadow frying pan in her hand.
""Yeah! We don't even eat regular food! We eat dead people, remember?"" Clancy does the same as Amber, except now he's holding a shadow meat cleaver bigger than his head.
""G-GAH!"" Kiroketsu turns pale with fright. ""W-WHERE DID YOU GET A PAN AND A CLEAVER! WAIT, N-NEVER MIND, I DON'T CARE! DON'T COME ANY CLOSER! SOMEONE HELP! PLEEE-EEE-EEEEEASE!""
Inside the dining hall, Sephie and the others hear the cries from outside of the doors.
""Do you hear that?"" Felixter asks aloud.
""...Iya."" Meora turns away from the doors.
""...Yeah, I don't hear anything either."" Sephie shrugs with a simple smile, holding back devilish laughter.</font></div>"

He then smirked at his own personal joke, for he very well knew that he could tell the difference between people and food. In any case, he eyed Sephie's group with a new curiosity. As a tactician, he was always eager to learn, and he especially wanted to learn more about this group of friends. The one that mostly caught his interests was Meoru, but he couldn't quite place his finger on why he was so interested in her. 'Oh well! I figure it out sooner or later..'

""I'm not a liar, and don't tell me to shut up!"" Kiroketsu retorts back sharply, which gets him another bullet in the forehead. He cringes, then pulls is out and sits at the table obediently. ""S-sorry, Meora-sensei...I am not worthy...""
""Yoi. You remember what I've taught you."" Meora smirks and puts her pistol back into it's holster again.
""The food here looks great."" Felixter smiles. ""I'm starved from the journey here.""
""No, it's not just from the journey. Remember, before we came here, we had to deal with more situations from all those people back at the Demon Highlands trying to kill us. Nimika, Kebaratsu, their minions..."" Sephie reminds him. ""I think it's been more like a few days or so since we've eaten.""
""Oh...that is right, isn't it?"" Felixter nods slowly, then chuckles. ""Guess we better get to eating, then, before anything else happens.""
""Well, I'd rather everyone else get their food first. I can snack on leftovers, but really, I don't need to eat. I am dead, after all."" Ammi says with a warm grin. She and the others glance over at Star as he arrives, and sends out his 'Pokemon'.
""Ah, I've heard of those things!"" Sephie gasps with excitement. ""I've been trying to find a good time to travel off to the world their from, but before I can, I always get kidnapped, or one of my friends do, or something along those lines...ugh.""
Meanwhile, Felixter turns toward Michael, mostly because he seems to be one of the less crazy people here. ""It is nice to meet new people...though, more so when you think they could actually be on good terms with each other.

""No, that was Felixter!"" Sephie retorts.
""Because you insulted me and nagged me until you got me to participate in your stupid idea."" Felixter holds his face in one of his paws. ""Just no, Sephie. For everyone's sake...""
""...Fiiiine."" Sephie huffs.
""I'll do the drinking contest for you!"" Kiroketsu offers.
""No, don't let Kiro do it, guys."" Meora warns everyone. ""He's a cheater. He's a spirit, so he can drink as much as he wants and not get drunk!""
""Y-YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO TELL THEM THAT!"" Kiroketsu exclaims. Meora only snickers at his misfortune.
Felixter turns back to Michael, listening  with his ears perked. ""Seems like you have situations similar to ours back where you live."" He smirks lightly. ""My twin sister and I here ran away from our home when we were 11, and took with us the knowledge of the Demon Highlands's, our homeland's, terrible secrets. They did many things to us up until that point, changing our creature species, putting us into an orphanage by saying our mother no longer wanted us, and trying to marry my sister off to the Demon King, who still chases her to this day. We were hated from birth by the true puppet-master of that whole society, so he made our lives hell. We were supposed to die there...but then we left. No one born in the Demon Highlands is supposed to leave or see the outside world. Ever. Now we're constantly chased by that mastermind and his minions. We've lost many lives to them.""

""Eto..."" Meora thinks on what Michael says to her for a moment. ""I won't say it's not possible. You could be right. Those aku-bakas do like to use others to fight instead of themselves. It's kind of funny, actually. You got the top guy, Kebaratsu, then he uses Nimika the demon witch and the Demon King to fight his battles for him...and then THEY use their own little subordinates to fight instead of using themselves.

Kiroketsu denies boldly while continuing to chug down beers, accidentally eating a few of the mugs in the process as well.
Ammi observes the zombies for a moment, watching everyone take them out. She looks down at her own wrists, where a couple of gold and sapphire bracelets are placed.
""...I know how this can go faster."" Ammi nodded. She begins to take off one of the bracelets.
""W-wait, Ams! Last time you took off your seals, you almost killed us all!"" Sephie squeaks.
""That's why I'm only taking one off this time."" Ammi replied with a grin, handing the bracelet over to Felixter. ""I trust you the most to keep this safe.""
""Of course."" Felixter nods.
Ammi's appearance changes slightly. Her flaming wings become even more intense, and her silver spots and eyes appear to leak silver and blue flames. She holds a paw out in front of her, and a lane of flame on the ground forms. It becomes like a fast-traveling wave, scorching through zombies and leaving a straight, wide gap in the middle of the horde. She continues to direct the wave all around, turning zombies to ash until it runs out.</font></div>"

Michael quickly switches tomes, preparing another powerful spell. ""Take this! Thoron!"" The air crackled arond him as he released a large beam of electricity at the horde, frying many of them. Then, he swapped to a silver sword, slicing down an equally great amount of zombies. One would even call it an ongoing kill streak at this rate.</div>"

<font color=""#a187be"">""DON'T YOU...hic...TELL ME....hic...WHEN I'VE HAD ENOUGH-hic!"" Kiroketsu slurs angrily as he continues to chug down more beer. He seems extremely woozy and about to fall onto the floor in a heap of drunken daze.
Ammi continues to unleash her fiery goddess power unto the zombie horde, creating different paths of ash through the zombie crowd. Meora gets her pistol out, loads it with a different type of bullet, and starts shooting. 3 seconds after each bullet hits something, it explodes.
""Where did you get those?!"" Sephie asks.
""Demon black market."" Meora responds with a mischievous smirk. ""I got something for you too.""
""Really?!"" Sephie squeals with excitement.
""I'm not exactly sure this is the time for gift-giving."" Felixter blinks at the two best friends.
""Relax. This'll be great."" Meora pulls out the handle of a knife from her belt, and hands it to Sephie. ""Press the button on the side.""
Sephie does as she's told, and from out of the handle, a large blade slides out. ""COOL!""
""It gets better. Stab the ground here and press the button again."" Meora continues as she keeps shooting zombies, hitting between the eyes nearly every time.
Sephie follows her friend's instructions again, and this time, the knife morph and branches out like a tree into several other blades. ""Whoa...""
""Stab that knife into someone and press the button, and I guarantee that about 80% of their organs will be shredded."" Meora snickers.
""Why was such a good weapon up for sale...?"" Felixter asks.
""The owned had problems with the button being push on accident. Like a deadly version of pocket-dialing on a phone."" Meora explains.
""...Wonderful."" Felixter holds his face in his paw with a sigh.</font>
<font color=""#ed145b"">""Hmmm...what an interesting little place to find these mutts...""
Atop the roof of the Shava Hotel, a lone figure in a raspberry-colored dress stands. She holds onto her witch hat to keep the breeze from blowing it away, though the breeze does blow her long orange curls around anyway.
""Playing around with a horde of zombies this big could be deadly to someone if an...'accident' were to occur..."" She smiles slyly.
Next to her, a raven with green eyes lands. Is shifts into the form of a slightly younger witch with shorter black curls in a dress composed of shades of green. She adjusts her own witch hat a bit.
""I see we've found them."" The new witch grins menacingly. ""What should we do now...Nimika?""
""I want you to go back and report to the Master on their location, Natasha. It seems to be only these ones, but I'm sure more of Sephie's little rebel group will show up soon enough. They shouldn't be leaving anytime too soon."" Nimika replies. ""I'm going to stay here and monitor them all...maybe have a bit of fun, as well.""
""Yes, Nimika."" Natasha bows her head with a cackle, turns back into a raven, and flies off again.</font></div>"

Hearing a cackle in the distance, Michael turns towards the general direction of the noise just in time to notice a raven flying off. Now making his way towards the hotel, Michael swaps his sword out for a wind tome. ""Arcwind!"" He calls out as he jumps, receiving a large enough boost from the gales of wind to reach the roof. He then draws his sword once more. ""Who are you?"" He asks the orange-haired witch before him. The witch, unless she recognizes his voice or apparel, has no way of identifying the tactician unless she can succeed in removing his hood.</div>"

My replies could drastically become longer &gt;:3 Oh how I love writing villains XD)

<font color=""#ec008c"">Sephie's group turns to watch Michael boost his way up onto the roof. They're all stricken with sick surprise when they see who he's addressing.
""She followed us here?!"" Sephie cries. She knows she really shouldn't be surprised, but Nimika is never a welcome sight. Ever.
""Honestly, I'm more surprised it took so long."" Felixter mutters, narrowing his visible eye up at the witch.
""Well, well...what do we have here? A new friend of Sephie's little rebel group to add to our target list?"" Nimika seems quite entertained by the appearance of Michael up on the roof. ""Perhaps I'll just have to make note of that, if you prove to be a real concern...but, for now, who I am doesn't really concern you. I'm here for the twins down there, not you.""
""G-GAH! Let go of me, you swine!"" Natasha caws harshly, trying to use her own magic to free herself.
""Are you serious? She couldn't even handle that simple of a task? Either my sister is completely incompetent, which is highly likely regardless, or Shava is much different of a world..."" Nimika sighs as she glances over at her sister's situation. She doesn't do anything to help, though. ""Well, it matters not. I was only sending her away so I could be alone with everyone. The Master already knows of this place and their location, just by us making it here...""
""Hai? Well what are you gonna do, then?! It's just you against all of us anyway!"" Meora calls up at the witch.
""Oh, don't fret, dear. This battle between us certainly won't take long. It'll all be over soon."" Nimika replies with a sickly sweet smile.
""What do you mean...?"" Sephie growls.
""Well, the stage seems to already be set for me. All that really needs to happen for everything to get set in motion...is one...good...SHOVE!"" In a flash, Nimika holds out her hand, and a force of violent red magic lashes out at Sephie's group on the ground, particularly Felixter and Meora. Felixter attempts to spread out his wings and stop himself, but by then it's too late. He and Meora have been sent flying into a particularly thick cluster of zombies on the field.
""FELIXTER! MEORA!"" Sephie cries. She's about to go after them, but Ammi holds her back, and then flies after them herself like a black and silver fireball.
Nimika jumps back down onto the ground behind Sephie as soon as the coast is clear, pulls her back hard by the hail, and stabs her through the chest with a silver knife from her belt.
""There we are. Well then, all of you other strangers have fun, then."" Nimika laughs, grabbing up the dead girl, and rushing inside of the hotel.
Ammi gets back to safe territory with Felixter and Meora. They look to be unharmed, besides being a bit bruised from the impact.
Felixter immediately springs into action.
""Ammi, Meora, you stay out here and keep what zombies are left at bay!"" Felixter orders.
""Hai, Felixter-kun!"" Meora nods quickly. Ammi doesn't say anything, and just goes back to frying the undead.
""Oooh, this is getting gooooood~!"" Amber giggles, watching everything while sharing a bucket of popcorn with Clancy.
""Who else do you think is gonna die before this is over?"" Clancy asks through his munching.
""I hope it gets even more bloody~!"" Amber sings.
Half-conscious on the dining hall floor, Kiroketsu is roused by a horrible pain in his chest. ""W-what...?"" He mumbles sleepily, but becomes alert as soon as he sees his chest start to bleed out a dark purple, and gets a feeling like he's fading. ""Awwwww, Sephie, not agaaaaaain!"" He sobs. Though he knows he's about to come back, he's still annoyed by having to die. With the time he's got left, he taps into Sephie's thoughts.
""Oh, good. Nimika's here. Just what I wanted."" He huffs.</font></div>"

""Oh no...not these two..."" She morphs herself back into her regular form, and takes a step back from the shadows
""Heeeeey, it's Nattie!"" Amber cheers. ""Hi Nattie~!""
""You want her to tell you something?"" Clancy looks towards Fedora-man, then back at Natasha with an evil grin. ""Are you hiding secrets, Nattie?""
""You stay back! I know how to fight you off. I can create light easily enough. Look! The sun's out!"" Natasha points towards the sun, hoping they'll look, and be distracted long enough for her to flee into the hotel as well, or maybe use her magic to create her own portal out. The shadows don't move, however. They only walk closer to her.
""Oh Nattie, that's not going to work! The sun's rays are too wide-range. Only concentrated light scares us, tee-hee!"" Amber giggles.
""Come on, Nattie...why don't we play a game?"" Clancy adopts an even creepier grin, as does Amber. They move in to grab her wrists with tendrils of shadow from their own bodies.
""N-no! Stop! I demand you let me go, r-right this instant, you fools! The Master will send others! They'll come no matter what you do to me!"" Natasha cries, trying to pull against them. All the shadows do is laugh...
Ammi and Meora watch Michael use his powers to destroy most of the zombies in their wake, taking care to stay well out of his way. Ammi continues manipulating waves of flame to try and wipe out the rest of the horrid creatures.
""Nice one, Michael-san!"" Meora calls out to him with approval.
Inside of the hotel, Nimika sits on the bed of an empty room, licking the blood from her claws. She waits there idly until Felixter flings open the door, enveloped by unmeasurable fury. It only gets worse when he doesn't see his sister anywhere.
""What did you do with Sephie?!"" Felixter hisses sharply.
""I don't know...what DID I do with her, Felixter? There are so many things...so very many gruesome things I could have done. I mean, why would the Master decide to show you any mercy...much less me?"" Nimika purrs tauntingly in reply. ""I could have killed her and hid her carcass somewhere. I could have taken off her head and hid it in the fridge of the hotel's kitchen. I could have injected her with a new, incurable strain of Demon Rabies and let her go loose. I could have had her possessed by something. I could have fatally poisoned her and hid her somewhere else in the hotel. I could have sent her back off to the Demon Highlands, and she could be getting executed, brainwashed, tortured, or married to the Demon King right this very moment. Who knows? Maybe I'm wearing jewelry right now that holds her soul within right now...""
Felixter starts to engage his hellion form, growing horns, bigger wings, and bigger claws. His eye becomes a sharper, icier blue.
""You will tell me where she is. Right. Now."" Felixter demands.
""Ooh, scary...you think I can't do something similar?"" Nimika cackles uncaringly.
Felixter growles, and moves towards her to strike. The witch is too fast, even with the increased speed of the hellion form, and is choking him while holding him above the ground with her magic.
""Silly little boy..."" Nimika tsks. ""It's not right to hit a girl, you know...""
""You're...no girl..."" Felixter retorts through his choking. ""You're...a...HAG...""
Nimika narrows her eyes. ""Oh, is that right? Well then-""
She suddenly brings him down hard onto the floor, and then slams him repeatedly back and forth from wall to wall of the room, leaving some cracks, but not making too much of a mess. She drops him onto the floor.
""It's also not right to address a girl so rudely. My, and I thought you were supposed to be the more polite, gentlemanly twin..."" Nimika tsks once more as Felixter struggles to pull himself up. When he gets close, she just slams him back onto the floor again with her magic, and laughs about it.
""Nope...I'm not doin' so good...but it's not the beer..."" Kiroketsu rasps. His color steadily drains, leaving him a much paler purple than he should be. He closes his eyes with a miserable moan.</font></div>"

Ammi gives Michael a warm smile before turning and hurrying after Meora. Inside, she quickly tries to scent out anyone familiar.
""I think Felixter is down that hall."" Ammi says finally. Both of them run in that direction.
""Man...I really hope some of our other friends get here soon."" Meora comments on the way there.
""So do I. If things are getting this bad here...I worry what they might be doing to our friends back home..."" Ammi murmurs with concern.
Nimika doesn't seem too worried or surprised by the appearance of the angry Fedora-man, until she suddenly feels her windpipe being strangled. Felixter uses the chance to get himself up, and race off to find his sister. Nimika watches with a smile.
""He'll...never..."" She croaks. Then, she goes limp. A black apparition with raspberry-colores eyes floats out of the body, and disappears through the ceiling with laughter.
The body Fedora-man is choking turns into someone completely different from Nimika- a random demon woman she probably picked off of the street and killed for the body.
Inside of the dining hall, Kiroketsu has turned completely grayish-white, and his eyes have closed. A few seconds later, his figure flickers like a hologram, and disappears altogether.
""G-GYAAAAAAH! STOP THIS MADNESS! LET ME GO!"" The screaming from outside behind the hotel is coming from the witch in green.
The shadows stand beneath her, having tied her up in shadow ropes and dangled her upside down from a fairly high tree branch. Amber holds a large frying pan and some odd kind of gun, while Clancy holds onto a butcher knife bigger than his own head and a gun that looks the same as hers.
""NO! You will play our game by our rules."" Amber huffs.
""W-what are the rules?!"" Natasha hisses.
""WHAT COLOR IS THE NUMBER H?"" Amber demands.
""W-what even-"" Natasha begins.
""WRONG!"" Amber aims the gun at her, and it shoots a waffle with a face at her at a high speed. It flops onto the ground, and Natasha is left blinking it utter bewilderment.
""No, no, Amber! We have to ask her about the Master's plans and all that junk, not our own questions!"" Clancy says. ""Here, watch me. NATTIE...DOES THE MASTER'S PLAN HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT COLOR THE NUMBER H IS?!""
""I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION!"" Natasha shouts back.

She only gave me images and options to ponder on, and I'm guessing that not a single one was the truth..."" While he talks, Felixter takes Ammi's other bracelet, her missing seal, out of his pocket and hands it back to her.
""Wicked woman..."" Ammi growls, putting her seal back on. ""If I get my claws on her...""
""I wanna beat the slimy smile off of that witch's face too, but our top priority here is Sephie-chan, especially now that we know even less about her situation."" Meora says.
""Well, knowing Nimika...I don't think she would've just went ahead and killed off Sephie completely. She knows about Lucille's powers, plus she would've wanted to be able to torture her while she did it. She was definitely not given enough time for that."" Ammi explains.
""You think she hid her somewhere?"" Meora asks.
""I've tried searching out Sephie's scent the whole time I've been here...I've gotten nothing."" Felixter adds.
""Neither have I. It's possible that she used magic to mask the scent."" Ammi suggests.
""What should we do, then?"" Meora frowns, crossing her arms.
""Well...it's either check everywhere we can, or wait for some kind of sign, if there ever is one..."" Ammi relies with a grave tone.
""That might take too long. We've no idea what is happening to her right now."" Felixter growls in frustration. ""Yet, I cannot think of anything else we can do...""
""To make things worse, if Nimika and Natasha made their way here...their other sisters can't be far behind, save for Nelodine. Nelodine should be coming here soon anyway...but I think she said she was going to help the kids get ready while Ammi was away."" Meora sighs. ""And then there's also Kebaratsu's OTHER henchmen...the Demon King, his assassins, other annoying people I'd like to shoot into swiss cheese...""
Outside, Nimika's black apparition form floats towards the remains of the zombie bodies outside. Most of them are torn apart and burnt to ash, but there are still precious few that seem to be whole, save for some wounds. She floats into one, and the body stands up. Slowly, Nimika's appearance takes over, and the body morphs into her own, complete with the same clothes and features.
""Ah, that's better..."" She sighs with relief, then touches her claws to the large purple jewel in the center of her necklace. It begins to glow.
<font color=""#f49ac2"">""...Nimika, is that you?"" A dark voice emanates from the gem, as it acts as sort of a walkie-talkie.</font>
""Yes, Master."" Nimika replies. ""I suppose you've got our location already?""
<font color=""#f49ac2"">""I've been listening in the whole time."" The voice chuckles. ""Shava...an interesting world with a strange ruler, it seems...""</font>
""What are your next commands, Master?"" Nimika asks.
<font color=""#f49ac2"">""...I'm sure you can think of something."" The voice replies in such a tone that you can almost hear the evil smile behind it, and the necklace jewel stops glowing.</font> Nimika takes a moment to think on these orders, and then her eyes light up with glee.
""Yes, yes...of course."" Nimika cackles quietly, and shapeshifts into someone else. In seconds, she's taken to form of Sephie, and is now posing as the missing cat demon girl. Of course, her eye color stays raspberry, but with a bit of magic, they turn blue like hers also.
""This should be fun..."" Nimika grins, going back through the doors into the hotel.
""GET. YOUR. HANDS. OFF! Don't you people know ANYTHING about personal space?!"" Natasha shrieks when Fedora-man puts his hand to her forehead, and struggles a bit.
""WRONG!"" Clancy shouts again, and shoots her in the side of the head with another muffin.
Natasha growls at Clancy, but turns her attention back to Fedora-man. She glares at him as he speaks, then starts to smirk.
""Me? Tell you anything?"" Natasha laughs. ""Oh, I do apologize, but I'm afraid I might not be of much use to you. See...I know nothing of the Master's true intentions. I only know that we've targeted Sephie's group for years, so she's the one we're off to kill. The Master NEVER tells anyone his true plans. Not even my dear sister Nimika, his most trusted and beloved worker. So, I suppose you're just out of luck.""
""....WRONG!"" Amber cheers aloud, and shoots another waffle at Natasha's face.
""STOP THAT! IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!"" Natasha cries.</font></div>"

He strategically puts on a smile as he advances towards her with his hands behind his back. ""Thank goodness, Sephie, you're alright! We've been looking all over for you!""

Felixter glances towards the doors as they open.
""Sephie! Oh, my dear child, we were so worried about you! What happened?"" Ammi rushes to Nimika's side, feigning a relieved smile.
""Eh, don't worry too much about it."" Nimika says in Sephie's voice. ""She tried to send me back off to the Demon Highlands so I could get brainwashed and become another one of Kebaratsu's puppets. Of course, she's not the only one who can make a portal...or kill a person or two."" She snickers, just as Sephie would. Felixter feels slight unease at how good the imitation is.
Meora tries to think of something that only a living Sephie could know or do...then grins as she gets the perfect idea. ""Ne, Sephie-chan, what's going on with Kiroketsu-kun? He died when you did, right? Where is he? I feel like we should be beating him up for not protecting you. Because, y'know, that's kind of his JOB.""
""Kiro? Ah, I tried tapping into his thoughts to yell at him earlier, but he was still unresponsive. Seems he drank so much that he passed out on the dining room floor."" Nimika laughs.
""Ah...is that so...?"" Meora keeps her cool on the surface, though inside of her mind, she's a bit freaked out by the fact that whoever this is knows exactly what happened to Kiroketsu, and wonders how it's possible. Quickly, she thinks up something else that could only happen with a real, living Sephie. ""Well, maybe we should go into the dining hall and mess with him. It'd be funny~...."" Meora suggests with a teasing tone.
""You can go on ahead with that, Meora-sensei."" Nimika sighs a bit wearily, with a tired smile to match. She turns around and starts heading away down the hall, back turned to them all. ""I might go rest up some...I'm pretty tired...""
""P-Perhaps I should check you over, Sephie. Make sure nothing's wrong. It'd be terrible if you went to take a nap, and then never woke up because of something horrible Nimika did."" Ammi suggests before she can get too far away.
""What? Ah, fine."" Nimika rolls her eyes, and goes back over to Ammi. Ammi makes a small incision in the girl's wrist, and pumps her healing flames into it. Everything appears to be completely normal and fine. The fire has no strange reaction.
""Ah...seems you're fine..."" Ammi mutters.
""Oh? What, are you disappointed that you don't get to nurse me back to health, Ammi?"" Nimika coos teasingly. ""That's adorable.""
""Well, you know how much I care about you all."" Ammi chuckles lightly.
""Here, Sephie."" Felixter steps up to her side. ""Why don't I accompany you to your room? Just to make sure there's nothing there waiting to kill you in your sleep or anything.""
""Man, you guys are all actin' a little weird now..."" Nimika backs away from the group with a confused frown. ""I know you're worried, but c'mon, we've faced Nimika like this before, and on much more serious terms.""
""Well, that is true...I guess we're just a bit on edge. A brand new world and everything..."" Felixter nods slowly.
""Sheesh."" Nimika turns her back on the group again. ""It's like you think any moment, something's gonna strike from the floor, just out of nowhere!...Something like...this?"" Her voice becomes a bit deeper, and she glances behind her at the group again, her eyes flashing a raspberry color.
Before they have time to react, Nimika's signature red-colored magic grabs Felixter, Meora, Ammi, and Michael from beneath them on the floor, and slams them against the ceiling. It pins them there as Nimika laughs, returning to her normal voice, but keeping Sephie's appearance, save for the eyes.
""Aw, your little act was so cute, you know? But really, come now, did you honestly think I wouldn't see through it?"" Nimika shakes her head. ""Sorry, but that's just not the way it's going...""
""W-why did you even come back here?! Aren't you finished yet?!"" Meora growls, trying to struggle against the magic force.
""Oh, I'm finished with Sephie for now, yes. I'm just killing time, making sure everything goes smoothly. I mean...you've wasted enough time now. It shouldn't be much longer until it happens."" Nimika hums nonchalantly.
""Until what happens?! What have you done, you horrible woman?!"" Ammi shouts.
""Yes...not long at all."" Nimika turns around on her heels and starts walking away for the third time. ""I think I'll just keep you up there awhile. You don't mind, do you? I didn't think so. I'm going on to check the progress of everything now. I'd say there's...a minute or two to spare."" She says aloud, half to herself and half to further taunt the group stuck to the ceiling as she leaves them.</font></div>"

Meora keeps a sort of half-grin on her face while continuing to struggle against the magic.
Ammi attempts to use her flames to force the magic off of her, and maybe pry herself free. It looks as if it's starting to work, but Nimika spots this, and pushes even harder on all 4 of the people she's trapped.
""No. Bad kitty."" Nimika scolds, wagging a claw at the goddess. She turns when Srg addresses her, and cackles. ""Perhaps I'm just tired of their existences. Maybe I don't want a brother, a best friend, a new friend, or a big flaming bag of fleas hanging around me.""
""USO-TSUKI!"" Meora hisses. ""Sephie would never say something like that! You're not even a good imitation- GAH!"" Meora's outraged outcries are replaced with the sounds of chocking as Nimika moves some of the magic holding her to the ceiling up to her neck. After it looks as if Meora is seconds from losing consciousness, Nimika stops with a giggle.
""You're too loud for your own good, you know that?"" Nimika smirks.
""Thank you."" Felixter thanks Srg for the use of his magic.
""But what if I don't drop you? It'd be much more entertaining to let you stay up there. Who knows, maybe you'd starve to death..."" Nimika suggests with an evil grin.
Suddenly, the doors to the hotel open again, and what comes running in is an adorable, fluffy angel cat.
""Mommy! Don't worry, the others are coming, and I saw everything from the Heavens! I know where-"" Cloudy halts as soon as she sees Sephie. She's about to say hi, but the raspberry-colored eyes are unmistakeable to the angel, even when in the form of Sephie.
""N...Nimika..."" Cloudy trembles where she stands, her big green eyes getting even bigger with fright.
""You know where what now, dear? You say you saw everything that's happened from the Heavens...?"" Nimika turns to face the little angel completely. She glances up at Ammi with a smile that holds nothing but the worst intentions imaginable.
""It seems that your little girl here is without a babysitter...don't worry, though. I'll gladly fill the position, free of charge. I mean, after all, Ammi....aren't we just the best of friends?"" Nimika says.
""DON'T YOU DARE!"" AMmi flares up with desperation and rage, trying once more to pry herself free of the magic to save her child.
""Cloudy-chan, RUN! HYAKU!"" Meora cries with some of her remaining strength.
""Come here, dear!"" Nimika moves fast towards the small angel, sending her magic lashing at her. Cloudy screams, and narrowly dodges through her small size and speed. She flees down the corridor and disappears down a corner. Nimika gives chase.
""G-grr...!"" Natasha struggles against Fedora-man's magic, but in the end, ends up getting overpowered. ""...What do you wish to know, sir?""
""Aw...she stopped being loud and screamy."" Amber frowns.
""Too bad...you think we accidentally killed her?"" Clancy murmurs.</font></div>"

He says as through sheer will power, Michael frees his hands from the bindings, makes a few hand movements and slams his hands on the sealing, causing the bindings on everyone to break. Then, in order to break everyone's fall, Michael casts Arcwind, causing a small air pocket to form below them, slowing them down.

Meora insists in reply to Michael's exclamation. ""It takes...more than that...to deal with me."" She maintains that weak, but determined grin the whole time.
Everyone's help on the matter quickly deteriorates the magic binds, and allows the group a safe landing back onto the floor of the hall. Ammi and Felixter land on their feet, but Meora ends up on her hands and knees. Ammi is so enraged that she hits the ground running, following the others as they chase down Nimika without saying a word.
""Are you going to be alright?"" Felixter asks her, while he watches both Srg and Michael chase after the notorious witch.
""Didn't I just say 'daijobu', Felixter-kun?"" Meora pulls herself up with a growl. ""I could have a bullet wound in my stomach and arm right now, and I'd still get back up and run after that witch. She's pushed me too far now. First and foremost, you don't mess with Sephie-sama, but to go ever further and start threatening Cloudy-chan...she's gonna pay."" She loads up her pistol with more bullets as she talks. ""I might not have magic like everyone else, but I've got extensive training. If I've stayed alive with you people this long, this witch sure as hell isn't going to take me down just like that!""
""You've always had quite the admirable spirit, despite everything."" Felixter smiles a bit at her.
""Tch, well, if I don't stay strong and grin at the challenges...I'll just end up cryin', won't I?"" Meora smirks before she takes off after everyone else. Felixter brings up the rear, in case any other enemies of theirs were to show up. The Master's forces, to Sephie's group, were similar to ants. If there's one or two here, more are bound to appear at some point...
Cloudy continues to run off down the halls, searching for one particular hotel room. Nimika is hot on her trail the whole time, continuing to swipe at her with extended magic phantom claws.
""What's the matter, child? You seemed so confident walking in here!"" Nimika cackles. As she chases the little angel down, she morphs out of her Sephie imitation, and back into herself, as the disguise seems pointless now.
Cloudy doesn't give an answer, too scared and too concentrated on flying down the hall as fast as possible. She rounds another corner, and stops in front of the very last door on the left. She jumps up, quickly grabbing the knob, turning it, and flinging the door open. She freezes in place with more shock.
""S....Sephie...?"" Cloudy whimpers. ""...Oh no....it's...gotten worse...""
Sephie is limp in the middle of the room, her arms and legs held in place by tendrils of eerie purplish-black darkness. The entire room is dripping with the stuff, actually, as veins of it branch out, covering the walls, and even the back of the door. What frightens Cloudy more than this horrific scene is where it's all coming from. The evil substance is branching out straight from Sephie's chest.
From her heart.
Sephie opens her eyes slightly, looking at Cloudy. She opens her mouth to speak, but all that comes out are wisps of a black color. She starts to cough, and more of the same substance covering the room drips from her mouth like blood. She closes her eyes again.
Cloudy is too distracted by the gruesome scene to notice the witch now looming over her from behind. Slowly, Nimika walks up to her. Cloudy finally notices, but right as she turns around, Nimika knocks her into the room, and slams the door shut on her. She uses her magic to keep it locked.
""NO! NO, PLEASE!"" Cloudy gets back up and desperately tries to open the door. She starts crying with fear. ""NIMIKA, PLEASE, DON'T LEAVE ME IN HERE! I'M SCARED! M-MOMMY! MOMMY, HELP ME, <span class=""bb-i"">I'M SCARED</span>!""
Cloudy's ears perk up as she hears Sephie's breathing become harder behind her. She turns to see the girl struggle, and more tendrils of the horrible substance come out of her heart. Cloudy's pupils shrink, and she becomes dead silent. The tendrils shoot towards her.
""<span class=""bb-i"">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!</span>""
The high-pitched, blood-chilling scream of unimaginable pain and fear spreads through the entire hotel. It goes on for at lest a minute, before the screams are stifled. Nimika stands in front of the door with a merciless grin as the screams become sobs, then muffled struggles, and then silence.
Nimika can't help but begin to laugh once more...
""Nimika's weakness..."" Natasha murmurs. She twitches slightly while trying to struggle against the magic still, but it appears not to be working. ""I....don't know...I never have...they don't tell me...I'm just a lower-level worker. We learn nothing of those on the higher level. She could be my conjoined twin...and I'd still never know a thing. Our employer....the Master, Kebaratsu...he's ruled the Demon Higlands for centuries....he created it...he controls everyone...he controlled Sephie and Felixter's lives until they left...they carry a secret...they must...be...destroyed..."" Natasha continues. ""Kebaratsu...is a powerful demon...a small appearance, but with frightening abilities...everything that ever happened in the lives of Sephie's family, Sephie, Felixter, me, Nimika, or anyone else....all by his direction...like actors in a play....like...toys...""
""So much drama~!"" Amber mutters excitedly, once again sharing a randomly-appearing bucket of popcorn with Clancy.
""When do we get to the parts about who cheated on who?"" Clancy murmurs with the same excitement.</font></div>"

""Sorry, but I couldn't let them go if I tried, now."" Nimika yawns. ""But wow, I guess it really is true. Harm a child around people from the outside world, and they'll go ballistic! Hmph, those from the Demon highlands are much stronger. We send our children to war when they're toddlers.""
""CLOUDY-CHAN!"" Meora skids to a halt in front of Nimika and the door, as well as Felixter. Ammi keeps right on charging at the witch, though. Nimika doesn't throw her back, but instead holds her in place by the neck, just out of reach. Ammi struggles furiously.
""WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BABY?!"" Ammi roars.
""It wasn't me. It was Sephie."" Nimika shrugs. ""All of this is really her. If she hadn't left the Demon highlands in the first place, none of this would be happening. On a more direct note, however, this event occurring at the moment really <span class=""bb-s"">is</span> her fault.""
""What do you mean?!"" Felixter demands sharply.
""The Master gave me an injection fresh out of the labs. He said it reacts with the darkness of one's heart and soul. Depending on the intensity and amount of darkness the person carries within...the effects are changed."" Nimika explains nonchalantly. ""These effects are because of Sephie entirely.""
""So how do we fix it?!"" Meora shouts angrily.
""...Heh."" Nimika straightens her witch hat a bit. ""Sorry girl...I've no idea. The Master only told me what to do with it, and what it did. He most likely didn't tell me how to remedy the situation because he knew of the slight chance that you could gain the advantage and try to force information out of me. Honestly, I would have thought you expected something of that sort. He's too smart to do something so foolish.""
""....GRRRRRAH!"" Meora suddenly lets out a cry of fury, whips out her pistol, and starts unleashing an uncountable number of bullets at Nimika.
Nimika throws Ammi off to the side, and then uses her magic to bounce each bullet back. Meora manages to dodge a few, but many end up hitting her. She falls onto the ground.
""K..kuso...."" Meora trembles.
""Meora!"" Felixter cries. Ammi gets up as fast as she can to tend to the girl's wounds in time. Felixter glares at Nimika.
""You're an absolute monster..."" Felixter shakes his head slowly. ""Do you even understand what you're doing right now, and how horrible it is?!""
""What a pointless question to ask. Of course I do."" Nimika huffs with a smirk. ""...I'm getting rid of undesirable flaws in my Master's nice little system.""
At that moment, the door everyone stands around, the door that Sephie is behind, begins to shake slightly.
""<span class=""bb-i"">...nngh....ugh...g.....ungg...G-GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!</span>""
The scream of pain, unmistakably Sephie's, leads to the door violently shaking, and tendrils of blackish-purple coming out from under the door at a rapid pace. They move to the opposite wall of the hall, and spread around like thick, ugly vines. They continue to move around, spreading on the floor and walls like a virus.
""If I'm correct...this stuff is supposed to turn the darkness into something that destroys both her, and those she loves specifically. How convenient that a large group of them is right before me."" Nimika cackles.</font></div>"

""Oh boy-GAH!"" She doesn't fight back at all against anyone's attacks. By the time all is said and done, she lies on the floor, heavily wounded, but still laughing cruelly at the group.
""Foolish mutts..."" Nimika grins viciously. ""You can beat on me all your little hearts desire...but it's not going to fix a thing, is it? I can't stop Sephie. In fact, you're just wasting your time on me.""
""Sou da...."" Meora acknowledges the truth of the witch's words with a scowl. She gets up to her feet, Ammi having healed her wounds, and looks towards the door. ""We shouldn't let the witch get off easily...but at the same time, we need to help Sephie-chan.""
""Maybe I can burn this all away..."" Ammi suggests. She holds up a paw to try and begin burning the horrible dark tendrils, which continue to grow across the floor and walls, but it's then that the door to the room opens a bit. The figure that steps out is none other than Cloudy, her eyes a bit spaced out, and her whole body wracked with endless shudders.
""Cloudy?! Oh, my baby!"" Ammi forgets about burning the tendrils right away while her daughter walks up to her.
""M....M-Mommy..."" Cloudy stops, facing forward, and not even looking at her mother. ""...I...I'm s-s-scared....""
""Honey, are you okay? Look at me."" Ammi crouches down to her level. At this time, Cloudy finally looks up at her mother. She opens her mouth to say something, and instead, a mass of black tendrils fly out and entangle Ammi. The goddess is stunned, too horrified to speak or react for a good few seconds.
""Dear lord..."" Felixter recoils in horror.
""Mo ii-yo!"" Meora cries out suddenly, and races over to the door. She flings it open, and is momentarily stunned with the sight that greets her. Inside, the tendrils have grown, completely encasing Sephie, and leaving almost no blank spaces on the walls, floor, or any furniture items in the room. Meora shakes off her shock and gets out her pistol. A few tendrils rise up from the floor of the room, rearing up like snakes, and then moving quick to strike.
""Meora!"" Felixter is about to push her out of the way, but Meora flips out of the way of all the tendrils, hits the doorway, kicks off of it, and launches herself onto the top of Sephie's dark cocoon, where it is suspended from the ceiling. She presses her gun right to the connecting point, and unloads bullets into it until it breaks off and the whole thing falls to the floor. Meora does another flip backwards off of the thing, spinning her pistol around in one hand.
The tendrils move away from Sephie's body to reveal her, but in no way do they recede or let up. They move themselves from the walls and floor, still attached to Sephie's heart, and move her out of the room. Sephie leaks black wisps from her blank white eyes and her mouth, completely limp and unresponsive. From her heart itself, a monstrous shriek is sounded out, and the tendrils lash out at Felixter, Meora, and Michael in particular. Some of the remaining ones go on to attack the others around the area as well, but not a single one goes near Nimika.
""I told you..."" Nimika works on getting herself back up from the ground, still laughing at her victims. ""...It'll destroy her from the inside, and try to do the same with all of her friends...""
""Help them? Why? It's fun to watch them struggle."" Amber giggles, growing out a pair of wings so she can watch the battle from outside. Clancy follows her lead.
""That looks like an interesting game they're playing! Ooh, and look how well Cloudy and Sephie are doing at it!"" Clancy snickers. ""What kind of game do you think that is?""
""Hmm....one about squids?"" Amber suggests with a grin.</font></div>"

It slowly works up to a loud cackle.
""Adorable little fools...so childish..."" Nimika grins, despite the fact that she's almost being choked. ""Why would you even want...to keep someone around...who has that much darkness lying inside of their very heart and soul?""
""It's not her fault."" Felixter defends with a scathing tone. ""She could've been just fine if it hadn't been for you horrible monsters!""
""Tch.....you can blame your mother...if only you'd been <span class=""bb-i"">born</span> cat demons like you were supposed to..."" Nimika smirks at Felixter, then turns her eyes back to Michael. ""That's all null and void now...in reply to you sir, let me just say....I can be just as merciless."" Nimika lifts one of her legs, and kicks hard at Michael, stabbing him with her dangerously sharp (and already bloodstained from past battles...) shoes. She brings up her hands to Michael's, and starts digging in her claws.
""I tore the skin off of someone like this once....want to see if I can do it again...?"" Nimika cackles even more, clearly enjoying this, despite how much of a disadvantage she appears to be at.
""S-Sephie-sama! Kudasai! You have to snap out of this! You can't let your own inner evils run loose like this! I mean, at the very least, you gotta keep 'em chained!"" Meora pleads to her unresponsive fried, continuing to nimbly dodge and shoot back tendrils. A moment later, she turns into a cat and jumps onto Felixter's shoulder. She uses him as a boost, jumping onto the wall. Quickly, Meora climbs up the wall, and then jumps onto the back of her limp friend. As the tendrils fly after her, Meora shifts back into her regular form, grabs one to use it as a swinging vine, and then tries to shoot the tendrils loose from her Sephie's chest. There's another earsplitting screech from the depths of Sephie's heart, and the tendrils that have become detached from the area die. However, since they are so numerous, some still remain, and those wrap around Meora's ankles sooner than she can land back on the floor. They trip her, causing her to land on her face, then start pulling her backwards towards Sephie, where more tendrils rear up in preparation to strike at the prey.
""Ungh! Chikuso!"" Meora hisses, starting to shoot at the ones around her ankles.
""Destroy her soul?!"" Felixter looks worriedly at Srg upon hearing his suggestion. ""No! Then we'd lose her anyway, wouldn't we? I-""
""FELIXTER-KUN! ABUNAI!"" Meora suddenly cries out, interrupting him. Felixter whips around, and jumps to the side before a cluster of tendrils can attack him. This time, they come from Ammi, who seems to have been infected the same way Cloudy was. Now both mother and child have blank eyes, and the numerous tendrils are flying towards everyone in the room to try and infect them as well.
Meora aims to shoot at more of the tendrils on her friend, but as soon as she gets rid of those ones, she's grabbed just as fast by ones from Cloudy. When she goes to shoot these, ones from Sephie wrap around her wrists as well, and wrench her pistol out of her hands, throwing it to the floor.
""G-GAH! FELIXTER-KUN! MICHAEL-S-Gwuh....ucghk.....glk...."" Meora's cries turn into sounds of choking and suffocation as she's entangled the same way Ammi had been earlier. Her green eyes start to lose color and go blank.
Felixter backs away a few steps, trying to keep his horrified feelings under control. As far as Sephie's group goes, he is now the last one who isn't infected with these horrifying...<span class=""bb-i"">things</span>...
""Sephie...SEPHIE, PLEASE!"" Felixter begins to cry out desperately to his sister.
""She...can't hear you....."" Nimika taunts maliciously.
Sephie turns towards Felixter slowly, and lets out a low croaking noise from her throat, instead of her heart. Her eyes flash back to their regular blue for a fraction of a second, but Felixter catches it.
""Sephie! Can you hear me?!"" Felixter has a brief flash of hope within his mind. He now believes it possible to subdue her through pleas while trying to find a solution. At this point, the situation has gotten so bad that just taking care of Sephie and her soul wouldn't do. The others are infected. If all 4 of them were to gang up on Felixter right now, not even he would make it.
The darkness.
Felixter has a flash of insight. The darkness. The darkness! Nimika said that these things are given power and amplified by the darkness in one's heart and soul. Each one of the people infected here have a considerable amount of darkness within them. Even little Cloudy has enough to spur the infection. Felixter definitely does as well. He might even hold more than his twin sister.
If someone were to arrive, though, who had little darkness...someone who was innocent, pure enough not to be able to give this disease any sustainability...it would stop by their hand!
But who?! Who did they know who was that pure?! Omoinashika? No, no...the amount of darkness might actually kill her from the outside, just because of the energy given off by it...
""...Mirui?"" Felixter murmurs to himself aloud suddenly.
Before he can even begin to think of how Mirui might fare in this situation, or how to even get her here that fast, Felixter hears the sounds of two newcomers approaching. They appear hostile.
""More enemies?!"" Felixter hisses. He backs up, but is quickly forced to run to the side and fly up to the ceiling with his wings when tendrils from all four of the infected start trying to catch him.
""I've never had a situation like this..."" Felixter mutters quickly, trying to catch his breath. His eyes flick over towards the rest of the hall. ""If I could get one straight shot down there...I could fly away, and maybe call someone over...""
""Catch Nimika?"" Amber asks. ""Ehhhhhhhhhh....she's mean though. Doesn't like to play. Hurt us a lot once...""
""Besides, it looks like Michael's playing with her!"" Clancy nods.
""Ooh, what if he leans in for the kiss?!"" Amber giggles.
""Don't be silly! No one would touch that hag!"" Clancy snickers.</font></div>"

As they dissipate, the four infected beings fall onto the floor. Ammi, Cloudy, and Meora recover faster than Sephie does, however, as they weren't the beginning of the horrible chain.
""What...happened...?"" Cloudy murmurs, trying to sit up.
""Sephie got us...S-Sephie!"" Ammi turns to see that the girl lies on her side in the middle of the hall, still limp and unresponsive.
""Sephie-sama! Ne, Sephie-sama!"" Meora pulls herself up in a rush, sliding to a stop on her knees next to her best friend.
""They'll....never forgive me..."" Sephie whispers to herself. Tears fall from her closed eyes.
""Sephie...?"" Ammi asks while scooping Cloudy up into her arms at the same time.
""...Daijoubu."" Meora sighs lightly. ""She's just having some weird nightmare-like thing, I think. As soon as she wakes up or snaps out of it, she'll be okay.""
In the air, Felixter is so relieved to see everyone okay again that he almost doesn't notice Karl attacking him until it's too late. Felixter dodges, and attempts to attack Karl back, but by then, the crazy stranger is already off attacking someone else.
""I know I shouldn't say this...but I honestly wonder if things could get any weirder than they have been today..."" Felixter lands hesitantly back on the ground, to approach his sister.
In Michael's shadow noose, Nimika doesn't try to move. She grits her teeth as she's stabbed through the abdomen, but she quickly replaces her expression of discomfort to that of a grin. She catches herself somewhat shakily upon being released from Michael's powers and falling back down to the floor. She forces herself to stand, though she knows that she'll soon be forced to leave the body she currently occupies.
""Hmph. It's fine anyway...this body was trash. I only needed it until I could find a better one....I was honestly hoping that one of you might die, so I could take yours...but, oh well."" Nimika huffs. She takes the silver knife she keeps on her belt out of it's sheath, it being still slightly stained with Sephie's blood from earlier. ""Guess it won't matter either way for you, mutt. You're a fool to protect these awful people, and now, it seems you'll die as such."" Nimika prepares to stab Michael through the back, but she's just as soon shot in the hand, causing her to let out a cry of surprise and drop the knife.
""Get away from him, aku-onna!"" Meora is on her feet in seconds, with her pistol pointed at the witch. ""You've messed with my friends enough for now. You're in tatters and rags. You're heavily bleeding. You're like a cockroach! Why won't you just DIE?!""
""Tch...insolent girl."" Nimika glares at Meora. ""...You know, if I could, I'd already have used my magic and cursed you all by now...but I suppose that'll have to wait for another day. As for now, I'll admit, you're right. Therefore...I'll take my leave before you get the satisfaction of 'killing' me.""
""Nani? Ne, matte!"" Meora is about to shoot at the witch again, but before she can, a black apparition with raspberry eyes, Nimika's 'raw' form, floats out of her body and escapes through the crack of a window. The body topples to the ground, and morphs from Nimika, back into the dead zombie it originally was before she took it over.
""Body-snatching creeps...ugh..."" Meora grimaces distastefully. She looks over at Michael, and goes to offer him a hand. ""Ne, daijoubudesuka, Michael-san?""
""A new game to play?!"" Clancy gasps.
""Oooooh, I hope this one's even more fun!"" Amber jumps for joy, and both shadows race into the hotel.</font>
<font color=""#ed145b"">Outside, as Nimika floats away, she hides herself in the shadows of the trees nearby.
""Master..."" Nimika hisses to herself. A dreadfully familiar voice answers her telepathically.

""Master, I apologize...it seems we were a bit off on our estimations of these new strangers..."" Nimika sighs.
<font color=""#f49ac2"">""Things like this happen, Nimika...it's not your fault, this time.""</font>
""Yes...but what are we to do now? Are you arriving soon?"" Nimika asks.

If fact I was a human paladin a person of pure light that was until I was bitten by a worgen. Then after I had control over my new animal instincts I was killed and raised as a Death Knight. After that there wasn't a shread of light left in me just darkness which as you saw can manifest itself as a Shadow version of me.

Meora gasps, trying to grab his hand before he falls. She watches him for a second before whipping around. ""Ammi-sensei!""
""I'm on it."" Ammi nods with a more serious look. She sets her daughter on the ground with Felixter, and rushes to Michael's side. Ammi places her paws on one of his open wounds, and starts sending her healing golden flames through his body. Instead of any sensation like that of actual fire might bring, this fire sends a comfortable, soothing warmth through the body while quickly repairing the internal and external body injuries. In not much more than a minute, Ammi finishes healing Michael.
""Any injuries to his body have been healed. The flames should have helped somewhat with the exhaustion also, but anything that might have happened to his soul or powers, I cannot fix. If Nimika managed to curse him after all or anything..."" Ammi looks back over at Meora.
""Iya. She couldn't have. Not like that, anyway. Injected curses are what Natasha does, not Nimika."" Meora shakes her head in respons.
""You're right. He probably just needs a moment or two for rest."" Ammi nods. ""Maybe for the meantime, we could put him and Sephie into an empty hotel room for rest.""
""In the same room...? Are you sure that's wise?"" Meora takes on a skeptical look, and Ammi begins to laugh.
""Ah, being around Kiroketsu too long really <span class=""bb-i"">has</span> affected you..."" Ammi picks up Micheal from the ground without much difficulty. ""Meora, Michael doesn't seem like the type of person who'd try anything weird like that, honestly. If it should happen, though, Kiroketsu, by now, has manifested back into Sephie's bag. He'll stop him.""
""Eh?...And what if Kiroketsu tries something?"" Meora huffs, still not convinced.
""Then Michael will stop him."" Ammi grins. ""They cancel each other out.""
""I can't believe you're really having this conversation..."" Felixter chuckles.
""Ammi-sensei here is pretty much spot-on. After having to deal with Kiroketsu's tricks for awhile, I've become distrusting in certain situations..."" Meora admitted. ""Honestly, Felixter-kun, I'm surprised you're not the same, after having to deal with the Demon King...""
""Ugh, don't remind me, please. I think I'll die a little inside if he shows up here after my sister."" Felixter takes on an uneasy, uncomfortable look. ""...I found...<span class=""bb-i"">things</span> in that castle...""
""Things?"" Meora gives Felixter a weird look.
""...A shrine dedicated to my sister, made mostly out of grade-school pictures and wanted posters."" Felixter mutters.
""Ugh...kimiwarui...!"" A shudder goes down Meora's spine.
""Just pick up Sephie, please."" Ammi rolls her eyes, opening the door to a nearby room, and going inside to place Michael down on the bed. Meora picks up her friend without too much struggling over weight (a cat demon girl who doesn't get a chance to eat regular meals doesn't exactly weigh an astounding amount), drags her into the room after Ammi, and props her against the side of the bed on the floor. Ammi and Meora do a quick once-over of the room, making sure it's safe before they leave and close the door behind them.
A minute later, a large purple set of claws reaches out of the small bag on Sephie's waist, reaching the floor. Another set of claws follow, and what ends up pulling itself out of the small, purse-sized bag is none other than the 10-foot guardian spirit himself, Kiroketsu.
""NNNYAAAAAAAAWWWWWWNNNN...ugh...that took awhile."" Kiroketsu yawns, stretching. ""Being non-existent kind of sucks, Sephie, I-"" He takes a moment to pause when he sees the girl passed out on the floor, and then Michael unconscious on the bed. A quick flick through the things Sephie has subconsciously picked up in her mind gives Kiroketsu all the information he needs. A horribly mischievous grin spreads across his face. Quickly, he tip-toes over to the door and listens to what's going on outside.
""They don't seem to know I'm out and about now..."" Kiroketsu stifles his snickering. ""If I put Sephie on the bed next to this guy and then hide...hehehehehehehee....""
Outside, Meora and the others look back at Srg.
""It's okay. We all have terrible things that've happened to us. I'm sure by now you don't have a hard time believing that."" Ammi gives him one of her signature warm smiles. ""One has to embrace one's darkness before they can truly move on...""
""Nani?"" Meora looks over at Fedora-man and her ears perk up at the mission description he gives out. ""Hmm...sounds simple enough, but should we wait for Michael-san to get up, or just go on without him?""</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">Nimika is about to fly off and find a better hiding place, when suddenly, Karl spot her. She worries for a moment that she'll have to waste time and energy possessing the odd individual to get him off of her trail...but then he does something unexpected. He supplies her with a fresh body.
""An offering for me...?"" Nimika murmurs, a bit surprised. Slowly, her expression turns from slight surprise back into an evil grin filled to the brim with malice. ""Thank you ever so kindly.""
THe black apparition flies into the girl's body, and in a process that takes around a minute or two, the girl's appearance changes from her original looks into an identical copy of Nimika, complete with the witch's dress, hat, and shoes.
""Ahhh...so much better. Feels much better than a zombie, too."" Nimika stretches a bit. She turns to say something else to Karl, but he's already gone after what looks like a dragon. She watches in confusion for a bit, up until Karl completely just...teleports back in front of her. She hides her disturbed look behind a smile.
""Uhm...as I was going to say, I appreciate this much, boy. You may have just made yourself a very smart choice, and many strong allies, should my Master hear of this..."" Nimika smirks.</font></div>"

""W-what?! How did you even-HEY!"" He protests to being dragged away. He tries to sheepishly laugh off their accusations. ""What, pervy? Me? Pleeeeease, that's just simply ridiculous! I-I'm Sephie's spirit guardian! She's in pain right now! I gotta stay here to help her! It's my job! C'mon!""
On the floor, Sephie shivers, and opens her eyes a bit. She's not awake, however. She appears to be sleepwalking in some way. She wipes tears from her eyes slowly, her pupils an empty white instead of the black that they should be.
""I'm...sorry........I didn't....want to...."" Sephie murmurs to herself, though it looks as if she believes she's talking to someone. ""...Olivarro...Sasami...w-why....the kids...fire...my fault...all me...never forgive...n-never...forgiven...""
The whole time, Sephie's been taking a knife from her bag. She points is at herself, but the tired, delusional girl drops it again before she can do anything. She closes her eyes, and crawls under the covers of the bed nearby to go back to full sleep, completely unaware of Michael's presence there.
Back outside of the room, Ammi, Meora, and Felixter turn to see Kiroketsu being dragged out of the room by force. Meora immediately reaches for her gun.
""Kiro-kun....."" Meora starts with a growl.
""I SWEAR, I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"" Kiroketsu throws his claws up into the air. ""HONESTLY. All I did this time was COME BACK FROM NONEXISTENCE.""
""Tch...okay...but If I start hearing any kind of conflicting stories later..."" Meora slides the pistol back into it's holster with a huff, and Kiroketsu lets out a large sigh of relief.
""Now that we're in the clear...at least, for the next half-hour, maybe, I wanted to ask you something."" Ammi turns to her little daughter, and picks her back up.
""What is it, Mommy?"" Cloudy beams at her.
""Did anyone come with you? Did you just come by yourself? I thought Nelodine was with you and your brothers."" Ammi frowns a bit with concern.
""Oh, yeah! T-they were supposed to follow me in, but...something weird happened with the portal we used to get here. It...fluc...flooc...um..."" Cloudy struggles with the word she's trying to say.
""Fluctuated?"" Felixter asks.
""Yeah! It did that weird thing! And then it disappeared, leaving me here...but, I think they're still coming. They can make another portal, right?"" Cloudy tilts her head to the side.
""I wonder if that was the Master's doing..."" Felixter murmurs, narrowing his eye.
""Either way, they should be able to make it now. The little pink punk will be too busy dealing with fixing up Nimika and Natasha."" Meora snickers.
""Hopefully so..."" Felixter nods in agreement.</font>
<font color=""#ed145b"">Nimika sort of just...stands and watches Karl's antics, more interested than disturbed.
""Hm...seems to be able to summon up fighters of his own..."" She murmurs to herself. In the woods behind her, there's a rustle, and she turns in preparation to strike. She lowers her guard a bit when a familiar witch in a green dress appears in front of her.
""Stupid shadows...ugh..."" Natasha spits out with an angry tone. She looks at Nimika, smiling at the more welcome sight. ""Ah, sister. Glad to have found you. I see you've gotten yourself a new body...the Master told me of your situation.""
""I suppose you arriving here with a new body means that he's gotten our other sisters here as well?"" Nimika smirks.
""Indeed. They're lying in wait for the Master's next orders..."" Natasha grins back.
""Wonderful. I'd love to meet up with them. Maybe we could do a little catching up, and-AH!"" Nimika is caught a bit by surprise when Karl grabs her by the wrist and starts running off with her in tow.
""Um...should I do something about him, sister?"" Natasha murmurs.
""No. Just...ugh, just go and console the others!"" Nimika replies before she gets out of earshot.</font></div>"

Though she's stopped pseudo-sleepwalking, the nightmare rages on inside of her head.
In the dream plane, she finds herself standing in a black room, surrounded by about 10 or so different people, all different ages, sizes, all with no face.
""Why did you kill us?""
""Why did you kill us?""
""Why did you kill us?""
""Why did you kill us?""
""Why did you kill us?""
""Why did you kill us?""
Over and over, the multitude of different voices repeat themselves. Slowly, wounds appear on every single person except for Sephie. She's stuck on the ground, as if glued there. The people move in. Sephie isn't horrified by the fact that they have no faces...but, rather, their voices. They're cruelly familiar.
Once upon a time, Sephie and Felixter had 10 or so siblings...but then, shortly after they made the monumental step to flee their homeland...their siblings and mother were taken from their homes, brainwashed, and sent after them. Sephie was forced to kill them all. They only attacked when she was alone. By the Master's orders, for sure, to make it as personally painful as possible...
Back in the real world, Sephie, still locked in a merciless sleep, suffers quietly while stabbing her claws into the mattress.</font>
<font color=""#bc8dbf"">Outside of the room, Kiroketsu has taken on an uneasy and regretful look while glancing over at the door that holds Sephie behind it. ""Aw man...""
""Eh? Nani?"" Meora searches the big spirit's expression.
""Seph's thinkin' about her siblings in her sleep again..."" Kiroketsu explains with a heavy sigh.
""...Unsurprising..."" Felixter looks down with a bit of a grave tone.
""Should I go in there, you think? Try to soothe her?"" Ammi frowns.
""No...it won't do any good."" Felixter shakes his head slowly.
At that moment, there are footsteps from down the hall. The group turns to see a demon witch in blue clothing approaching them cautiously, mostly because of the new people she spots.
""Are these strangers friends...?"" She asks carefully.
""Ne, Nelodine-chan!"" Meora grins. ""O genki desuka?""
Nelodine walks over to meet up with the group, pushing her glasses back up her nose. ""I'm sorry for not getting here sooner...something weird happened with the portal we used to get here.""
""Cloudy told us. Where are the other kids?"" Felixter inquires.
""Ah, they stayed behind with a few others this time around. Kayori and Mirui are still at hime getting some things in order."" Nelodine explains to them.
""As long as they're in safe hands."" Ammi nods.
The group is alerted by the presence of someone new once more as they see Lucas enter the hall and greet them.
""Ah, hello."" Felixter smiles lightly. ""Nice to meet you. I'm Felixter. This is Ammi, Meora, Kiroketsu, Cloudy, and Nelodine.""
""So many new people around here..."" Nelodine murmurs.
""Well, they're definitely friends. They just helped us fend off a vicious attack from Nimika. Sephie and one of them are resting in that room right there. Both of 'em got knocked around pretty bad."" Meora huffs. At the mention of the name, Nelodine freezes in place with a frightened expression.
""M-my sister's already made it here?!"" Nelodine squeaks.
""Seems so...her, and Natasha. I wouldn't be surprised if more are on the way."" Meora mutters. Her and the rest of the group snap into attention when Fedora-Man appears to tell them of Nimika's possible new allies.
""See? What did I <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> say?"" Meora puts a hand to her face with a long, exasperated sigh.
""N...Natasha..."" Nelodine trembles a bit as bad flashbacks assault her mind.
""Worry not. If we can help it, nothing bad will happen to you."" Ammi purrs to reassure her. Though, soon, she hears a female voice conversing with Srg inside of the room that Sephie and Michael are resting in. Because they have just been talking about witches, Ammi's mind immediately floods with worry, and she goes up to the door. The voice, upon closer inspection, doesn't sound like any of the other 5 witch sisters...but, since they can shapeshift, that's not saying much.
""Hello? Should I come in and help? Who's there?"" Ammi calls through the door.</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""Yes, the woman in green you just saw was my sister. I have 4 other sisters, but one of them...one of them is a little sick. She's joined the wrong side, it seems. It's my side-job to bring her back."" Nimika explains to Karl as they go. She willingly follows him to the house, and again, takes to watching his behavior, as well as the new being's in front of her.
""Strange people...but still...promising..."" Nimika smirks, muttering under her breath.</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Okay, girls. The Master has just issued his new orders out.""
In a small, hidden cave partially underneath the ground in the woods, Natasha is meeting up with 3 other people like herself. Her sisters, to be exact.
""He wants us to get her, right?"" The witch in orange, Numirra, yawns with an expression of boredom.
""Yes. We just have to get her, and then take her back down here. With our powers combined, there's no way this can fail."" The smallest witch in lavender, Noruani, grins with malice almost comparable to Nimika's.
""Grrrrraaaawwwwrrrr...!"" The biggest witch, wearing brown, lets out a feral growl accompanied by a rabid grin.</font></div>"

""Who could that be..."" She mutters to herself before turning into a shadow and slipping out of the room, now traveling until she's behind someone she recalls seeing once before.

She exclaims, unable to contain her excitement over seeing her friend after so long.</div>"

For a minute, she's worried that it's some kind of creature like Amber and Clancy, and that if she dares to go in and check on Sephie or Michael, they'll be a bloody mess...but, soon, the form has turned itself back into what seems to be a regular person.
""Eh...?"" Meora's ears perk up, an she turns to look at the cloaked tactician near her. The sound of her voice is very familiar.
""...Morgan-chan?"" Meora asks. ""Is that really you? Or is this a trick? Because I swear if this is one of the witches...""
""I honestly doubt it's a witch...they'd wait until they had regrouped a little more before attacking us again. shooting us down while we're still sort of recovering isn't enough fun for them."" Felixter says.
""Hmm...yeah, that does sound like the kind of thing they'd do...treating us like toys...ugh. Sick witches..."" Meora agrees with a disapproving look at the thought of the witches.
""Except for this one. This one's on our side."" Ammi puts a paw on Nelodine's shoulder.
""Of course."" Felixter chuckles.
""A-anyway, gomenesai, Morgan-chan."" Meora turns back to the tactician girl with a sheepish grin. ""I'm a bit more on edge than usual. Just got attacked, and we're expecting more fairly soon...""</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Where is she now? Has she arrived in this world, yet? It's called Shava, right?"" Noruani giggles in anticipation.
""She's here. She's with Sephie's little group of rebels, but that can easily be fixed."" Natasha answers.
""What do you think we should do?"" Numirra mutters.
""Easy. Go in there with different forms, and infiltrate the way we know how to best. Noruani, you can be our seer, knowing what everyone's doing and all. Numirra, you mess with lights and appliances as directed for distraction. I'll see if I can't infect someone with a curse somewhere along the line, and have a little fun with them while we go after our real target."" Natasha lays out the plan for them.
""...What about Nymne?"" Numirra inquires. The other 3 witch sisters turn to look at Nymne, who's curled up at the edge of the cave. She appears to be napping.
""Perhaps it's best if we leave her here. The animalistic witch might do something recklessly violent if we let her up."" Natasha decides. The other two sisters agree, and soon, all of them except for Nymne leave the cave. Once they're out of earshot, Nymne opens her eyes, and gets back up onto her feet. A sly grin crosses her face.
""Fools..."" Nymne sneers. ""Soon enough, you'll stop writing me off as a crazy savage...but, not yet. I've got work to do, concerning your targets, dear sisters...""
The witch climbs out of the cave, and follows her sisters through a different path in the wilderness...</font></div>"

I definitely respect him for those skills."" Meora grins at Morgan. ""Sephie-chan's resting too. She was the target of the attack. Wasn't exactly a pretty scene. You should be glad you missed it.""
""It did get pretty bad."" Ammi agrees with a slow nod, looking down at her little daughter.
""It was really scary..."" Cloudy nods quickly in agreement.
""I'm...sorry about my sisters. I-EEP!"" Nelodine cuts herself off with a surprised squeak when the hotel starts feeling as if it's moving. The group rushes to the nearest window to look outside.
""Is...the hotel really being raised?"" Felixter blinks in surprise for a bit.
""Hai. That's certainly what it looks like."" Meora laughs. ""Wow! Y'know, I've been a lot of places with Sephie-chan and you guys...but this is my first flying hotel.""
""I'll agree, this is new to me as well, as many places as we've been..."" Felixter backs away from the window with a light smile.
""Oh...good, we're not in any real danger. I was worried for a moment there."" Nelodine lets out a sigh or relief.
Back out in the lobby, Kiroketsu is crossing his arms with an indignant look.
""Hmph...I wish Sephie was awake. She'd help me out here!...Or...wait...no, no, she wouldn't."" He sighs miserably.</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">Nimika boards the elevator after Karl, still a bit uncertain of the choice she's made to follow along with him. However, it doesn't seem as if he's going to be out helping Sephie and her friends anytime soon...so perhaps she could still work with this strange one.
""Hah! I enjoy your style of cruelty...very nice..."" Nimika purrs, watching the little elevator attendant creature's ashes sprinkle to the floor after the man has killed him. ""Little subordinates like those should know not to talk back...""</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Though...I have the sudden urge to ask, sister,"" Noruani begins while following Natasha and Numirra back out of the woods and in the direction of the hotel, ""...If this 'Fedora-man' is the ruler here...do you think he could've done something to protect the hotel after Nimika's assault?""
""What could he have done? You think he has some sort of magic, or-"" Natasha comes to a complete halt when she peeks out of the woods and sees the hotel suddenly floating. ""....Or that...""
""Tch, your information sensory is as good as ever, lil' sis..."" Numirra smirks a bit. ""It's almost a bit scary.""
""isn't that the point?"" Noruani giggles happily.
""...Hmph. Well, no matter! We can shapeshift. All we have to do is become something as insignificant as..flies, or something, and make our way in that way."" Natasha grins.
""Butterflies."" Noruani tells her. ""We should be butterflies.""
""What? But regular flies are smaller, and less noticeable!"" Natasha looks back at her youngest sister.
""There are small butterflies."" Noruani replies simply. ""Besides...which do you think has more of a chance of getting squished if spotted? A fly, or a butterfly? Let's not forget the time you snuck over to Cloudy that one time as a spider, and she saw you...""
""...Point taken."" Natasha mutters in agreement.</font>
<font color=""#a36209"">Nymne, in the form of a moth, has already found a way inside of the hotel through a slightly cracked open window. She makes it to a closed off room, and transforms back into her regular self. She listens from the door, but hears nothing, and opens it slowly. She's in an empty hall. Nymne walks out, and starts strolling down the hall by herself. She doesn't look like she's planning to attack anyone.
""I wonder if they have any good books in this place..."" Nymne murmurs under her breath, humming a bit. Though she's calm on the surface, horribly cruel and deceitful plans flash through her mind. They aren't focused on Sephie's group, though. No, they're focused on Nimika, and how Nymne might someday be rid of her. Possibly her other sisters too. They all wrote her off as a savage from the moment of creation, just because of the DNA used to create her. She was never given a chance. As a result, Nymne cares not about ridding herself of Sephie's group. As far as Nymne is concerned, they have a common enemy.
In fact, the only reason Nymne rushed to get to the Shava Hotel first, before her other sisters did, was to possibly mess with them...</font></div>"

""The city consist of three floors whelplings and ghouls, Death knights and lesser ghost, and the last floor holds Liches, greater demons, Witches of high power, and the council.""

Uh yeah right Im putting up the barrier this time.* He turns and moves his hands again. This time a giant blue bubble forms around the now floating hotel.* Nothing gets past that.

Joe: ""Well Whipper Snapper looks like it's just you and me. Now first tell what you would do if you saw a pretty girl?"" he slowly circles Kiro. 

Kyru who has been wandering the halls stops as if she heard something but dismisses it as the wind. She eventually returns to where it seems everyone as gathered.""Hey whose the new girl?"" she says as she walks over to the window.</div>"

Meora grins, nodding in agreement. ""Your father knows how to do things, for sure.""
""Wait, you didn't see her?"" Ammi blinks, the comment giving her slight concern. ""Sephie was left sitting on the floor next to the bed...""
""Well, Kiroketsu did mention that she was having nightmares about family again...perhaps she hid herself. That's what she usually does. Maybe under the bed."" Felixter suggests.
""Ah, right...it's possible.."" Ammi settles down at this.
""That is also just as possible."" Nelodine pipes up when Morgan mentions the chance of the other 5 witch sisters using their shapeshifting abilities to get into the hotel. ""They're sneaky...and they don't have limits...no moral standards...they scare me.""
""When I see a beautiful girl?"" Kiroketsu echoes. ""Hmm...well, I'd probably give her a compliment. If that didn't work, I'd try another angle. Basically, I'd keep trying until something made her laugh in a genuine way. See, when you get that reaction, you know you got 'em hooked.""</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""Ah, I see...but, regardless, this little thing was still but a disobedient subordinate."" Nimika shrugs. She listenes closely to the explanation for the Dead Zone given to her, slightly interested. When the elevator stops, she steps out to view the golden city.
""My, my...it is quite lovely."" Nimika nods slowly. She turns to Karl, watching in slight confusion as he falls asleep right where he stands.
""Hm...well...perhaps it's a useful skill..."" She murmurs optimistically.</font>
<font color=""#39b54a"">After the three other witch sisters have all turned into butterflies, they attempt to infiltrate the hotel. However, by the time Fedora-man has put up the forcefield, it's too late.
""Gah!"" Natasha cries out in frustration. ""GREAT! Now what do we do?!""
""Hmm...perhaps, if we can't get in to see them...we can get them to come out here?"" Noruani suggests. An evil grin spreads on the small girl's face. ""I mean...aren't more of their friends on the way? What are the chance's they'll just teleport inside of the hotel? They'll be out here first...and we'll be the only ones around.""
""Hm. Smart. Guess we just wait then?"" Numirra mutters.
""...Guess so."" Natasha huffs. ""Come, we'll just blend in over here.""
The three butterflies go back towards the woods near the hotel, and turn into different woodland creatures. Natasha is a black fox, Noruani is a small songbird bird, and Numirra is a lizard.</font>
<font color=""#a36209"">Nymne is traveling towards the lobby unwittingly, but halts as soon as she hears voices. She listens in on their conversation for a moment before a small smirk crosses her face. She shapeshifts into a beautiful woman with long brown hair and keeps her own eye color. The dress she's wearing changes into a silky brown evening gown. With this new look, she walks out in front of Kiroketsu and Joe.
""WHOA. Hell-o, lady!"" Kiroketsu grins brightly.
""Hello there."" Nymne purrs. She glances from him to Joe. ""Sorry for barging in on your talk like this...my name's Nymne. I was wondering if there were any good books to read in this hotel, by chance?""
""Well, I don't know about books,"" Kiroketsu moves a bit closer to her, ""But <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> could read me any day...""</font></div>"

""Should I...do something about that...?"" Ammi looks at the door to the room a bit uneasily.
""It's probably fine. We don't want to disturb either's rest. Especially not when Sephie's in the middle of memories. She could wake up in a state of delusion, and then the heads would roll..."" Felixter replies.

<font color=""#8dc73f"">Natasha, Numirra, and Noruani wait outside of the hotel for awhile in their animal forms, waiting for at least one more member of Sephie's group to show up. They don't have to wait much longer before a portal opens up on the ground, and 4 familiar figures step out.
""Is this the place? A flying place?"" The largest of the new arrivals, a monster-like girl with bluish-green skin views the floating hotel in awe.
""I never heard anything about it flying..."" The second new arrival, a young girl in a red kimono with a huge set of limp shadow claws dragging on the ground behind her for a left arm, looks puzzled by the sight.
The two smaller creatures behind her, a young, nearly bear cub-sized black fox with a silver tipped tail, and a white cat with eerie eyes and fangs about 3 times his size, don't say anything.
""Kayori, are we gonna fly into that bubble and go have a magical floaty party with Felixter?!"" The monster girl's eyes light up at the prospect.
""U-um, well, Mirui, we gotta get inside first...and I'm not so sure we can get through that bubble. It depends what kind of magic it's made of."" The girl in the red kimono laughs somewhat nervously.
""Do you think...I could...?"" The scary (but still somewhat cute) white cat asks quietly. ""Cloudy's in there...I want her to be safe...""
""Maverick, I'm sure your sister's fine. Ammi's in there too, supposedly."" Kayori reassures him.
The black fox starts writing a message on his white board, and upon flipping it to show the others, it reads, ""Regardless, we should probably find SOME way in. That, or a safer place than out in the open like this.""
""You're right, Ryoku."" Kayori nods, turning back to look up at the floating hotel once more. ""There's gotta be some way in...""
Natasha, Numirra, and Noruani all sport grins in their animal forms, and slowly creep closer, out of the woods...</font>

With how fast and sudden you dragged me over here, I don't think-"" Nimika starts with a strange look towards Karl, but she's cut off when she hears giggling coming from the floor. An annoyed look takes over her face, and she turns to glance down at her own shadow on the ground, which not only seems darker than usual, but has two pairs of bright yellow eyes blinking within it.
""Hiiiiiiii, Nimmy!"" The girl's voice greets happily.
""Don't mind us! We're just here to watch..."" The guy's voice snickers.
Nimika turns away with a haughty sigh, glances over the schedule she's given, and takes in the necessary information. She watches the mysterious man leave her and Karl to fend for themselves, slightly uneasy, but remaining completely calm overall.

""Oh man!"" Kayori grins. ""Mirui's waited forever to see a real unicorn...!""
The tallest of the unicorns steps forward, and touches her horn to Mirui's shoulder. Mirui can hardly keep her excitement contained...until things start to change.
""H-huh?!"" Kayori stands in alert as soon as a magic translucent green box forms around Mirui, and the unicorn steps back. Mirui knocks on the box, but finds it completely solid. Suddenly, the three unicorns surrounding her change shape. Mirui and Kayori are both struck with the utmost horror.
""What a foolish monster."" Natasha cackles cruelly, along with Noruani and Numirra. They turn towards Kayori and the hotel in the floating bubble.
""You should run along now, girl, before we get impatient."" Noruani hisses at Kayori with the utmost malice and a fiendish grin. ""Go on, go tell your little boyfriend Felixter. Because, you see...Mirui isn't <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> trapped. Show them, Natasha.""
Natasha nods to her youngest sister, and looks around. She spots a bird in the sky, and using her magic, summons phantom claws to stretch out and grab the bird. She pulls it back down, and puts it into the same type of magic box as Mirui. Then, with a snap of her fingers, the inside walls of the box grow sharp spikes, impaling the bird from every angle until it is but a bloody mess of feathers. Kayori's horror grows even larger, and Mirui begins frantically pounding on the walls of her box prison, freaking out.
Even though she's smaller than Sephie or Felixter, and younger as well, Kayori doesn't flee so easily. She starts to run down the stairs again, using her anger to try and control her huge shadow arm. The witches snicker at this, not seeming worried in the slightest. Numirra uses her orange magic this time to catch Kayori by the gut, and shot her fast back up the stairs and right into the wall across from the front doors in the hotel.</font>
<font color=""#bc8dbf"">""Good to know. That must sound like music to Ammi's ears over here."" Meora chuckles.
""Like I suspect Michael of anything."" Ammi rolls her eyes. ""I just worry that Kiroketsu did something. He could have possessed Sephie, or-""
""It's obviously fine."" Felixter shakes his head with a sigh and a smile. ""Just let it go for now, Ammi. Morgan's right anyway. No one wants Sephie waking up only halfway from a dream like this. She could become unstable in seconds. The walls don't need to be repainted red.""
""Ooh...y-yeah, that's definitely something not to desire..."" Ammi grimaces.
""Partner up again with you? Hai!"" Meora nods enthusiastically. ""As one of the few people I've come to truly trust, I'd be happy to.""
Suddenly, there's a loud noise from the ground floor.
""What was that...?"" Felixter murmurs.
""F...FELIXTER!""
""Is that Kayori?"" Ammi's ears perk up. The group looks at each other, and they rush down the stairs to see Kayori picking herself up from the floor.
""It depends on what your definition of failure is."" Kiroketsu huffs at Joe before turning to Kayori. ""Heeeeyyyy, it's Kay-Kay! How're you doing? Ooh, ooh, is Mirui here?!"" It was common knowledge between the group of friends about something that happened between Kiroketsu and Mirui long ago, and that Kiroketsu currently has some sort of crush on the monster girl, for whatever reason.
""As if I'd let her anywhere near you."" Kayori growls towards Kiroketsu.
""Kayori, are you okay?"" Felixter runs over to her and helps support her as she stands.
""I-I'm fine, but Mirui's in trouble. She's out there trapped by some of the witches!"" Kayori replies quickly.
""Oh good lord..."" Ammi groans unhappily.
""Mirui's in trouble?!"" Kiroketsu gasps with horror. He then puffs out his chest and turns towards the door. ""DON'T WORRY, MIRUI! YOUR KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR IS HERE TO-GWWWAAAAAAAAAAH!"" Before anyone can stop him, Kiroketsu runs outside of the hotel, but promptly trips on one of the top stairs, and tumbles the whole way down to the ground, landing on his face.
""Purple kitty man!"" Mirui gasps ""Are you okay?! Why did you fall on your face? Stairs aren't a fun carnival ride!""
""Kimi wa jitsu ni baka da na...?"" Meora puts her face in her palm at the sight.</font>
<font color=""#a36209"">""Thanks..."" Nymne nods towards Joe, and makes her way towards the library, following his instructions. It's about then when she hears the commotion back from the lobby, about how her sisters have captured Mirui. She narrows her eyes.
""Hm...I was sure they'd go for the little ""damsel in distress"" Kayori..."" Nymne murmurs to herself, and keeps on going until she finds the library and heads inside.</font></div>"

As she falls, she draws her sword and then uses the momentum to begin flipping, bringing her sword down on one of the witches at random.</div>"

""And now all 3 of them are talking that way..."" Nimika mutters, shaking her head with a sigh. She looks back at the schedule she was given, trying to ignore the three crazy people right beside her as she reads.</font>
<font color=""#a36209"">""Hmph...how ridiculous."" Nymne murmurs, having already taken a book from the library and walked to a window in another empty hallway to watch what was going down below. She watches her sisters get trapped in what looks like purple crystal, and shakes her head.
""Well...I do want to see what these people can actually do in a battle...I've never seen Sephie's group fight...because my sisters never let me out..."" Nymne trails off in a bitter tone while talking to herself. She turns back to the task at hand, and puts her palm up against the glass of the window. She concentrates on the area outside where her sisters are trapped while a golden magic energy leaks out and swirls around her. Nymne begins muttering something quietly in the native language of the Demon Highlands. She stops with a satisfied look when she hears a thunderous roar in the distance. She turns her back to the window, leaning against it and opening her book to start reading, as if she'd been doing that the whole time.</font>
<font color=""#39b54a"">""Ugh! Damn!"" Natasha hisses within her purple rock prison.
""Well, this just isn't any fun...but I believe help will be arriving shortly."" Noruani yawns, unworried.
""What do you mean?"" Numirra asks.
At that time, the roars from beyond grow louder. The witches turn to look behind them.
""W-what?!"" Kiroketsu pushes himself up from the ground. He sees something large and dangerous flying towards the yard in front of the floating hotel, and his eyes widen with fear. Then he sees that Mirui is free, and rushes towards her.
""MIRUI!"" Kiroketsu shrieks.
""KIRO!"" Mirui cries.
The two run towards each other, but a huge gust of wind from the flapping wings of the dangerous creature now right above them knocks them away in the opposite direction. Descending upon the yard is a huge, beastly golden dragon, almost bigger than the Shava Hotel. It's eyes burn a bright green, and it's claws are harder than diamond.
""Is...is that <span class=""bb-i"">our</span> help?"" Natasha blinks in awe.
""Yes..."" Noruani grins. ""...Nice work, Nymne..."" She mutters under her breath with a giggle.
The dragon gives out a deafening roar, and strikes the rock prison of all 3 witches with one fell swoop of it's mighty claws. They shatter quickly.
""Huh. Deus ex dragina..."" Numirra smirks, unfurling her wings and flying away from the rock wreckage. Her two sisters follow suit.
""Now then, Natasha?"" Noruani snaps her fingers.
""I'm on it. Numirra?"" Natasha glances at the witch in orange.
""Right."" Numirra nods, and flies to stand in front of Morgan. Using her orange magic, she gives herself a pair of extendable phantom claws, and moves to strike at the tactician girl.
""Oh no you don't! Not without me!"" Meora cries, and rushes down the stairs. In her impatience to run down all of them, she goes about 2/3 of the way down before jumping in the air and flipping down the rest, landing on the ground right behind Morgan. She takes out her pistol, twirls it in her hand, and starts shooting. Numirra quickly moves out of the way, and uses her second pair of claws to try and strike out at Meora as well.
""Now, then...time for some fun!"" Natasha eyes Mirui, who's just now getting herself up off of the ground. Kiroketsu is doing the same several feet away. The witch in green uses her wings to rush at the monster girl. Kiroketsu catches this and gasps in horror.
""MIRUI, LOOK OUT!"" He tries to get to her before the worst can happen, but Natasha is too speedy. She tackles the monster girl and bites her fangs into her neck. The fangs glow green for a couple seconds, injecting a curse into Mirui's system before Kiroketsu manages to grab the witch and throw her off.
""Pick on someone of your own caliber, you hag!"" Kiroketsu yells.
""Aw, the big pervert has a crush. How surprising."" Natasha cackles sarcastically.
""FINE, THAT'S IT!"" Kiroketsu shouts. He opens his mouth and reaches into himself.
""Ugh...that is disgusting..."" Natasha gets up with a distasteful look at the guardian spirit. After reaching around, Kiroketsu grabs ahold of something, and pulls a wooden guitar out of himself. It's covered in translucent purple spirit goop. This just makes Natasha recoil in disgust even more.
""WHO WANTS A SONG?"" Kiroketsu grins somewhat fiendishly. He begins to play an upbeat tune while strumming the guitar. With each strum, a glob of the purple goop is launched towards Natasha one catches her wing, and ends up sticking her to the ground like glue.
""EW! What the hell <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> this stuff?!"" Natasha shrieks with fury and disgust.
""Huh...I guess that's why Sephie keeps him around, huh?"" Kayori mutters from where she watches. ""He's a pretty good guitar player, actually. I hate to admit it, but the tune's pretty good...""</font></div>"

Joe and Kyru jump down the stairs just as Fedora-man's eyes are going black they turn as he talks to stare in awe at the fact that not  only did his eyes go black but his clothes as well the only thing with some color was his skin which had turned a pale white.

""Not just yet. It seems there's already many people on the field. Though there's strength in numbers, someone needs to stay here and make sure no one inside gets hurt. Besides...those witches seem to work better with a crowd, anyway...more ""toys"" to play with, in their eyes."" Felixter shakes his head with a bit of a scowl.
""Hmm...seems he knows I'm a witch. Too bad. Oh well. I was just about on the last page of this here, anyway."" Nymne shapeshifts back into her normal appearance, and goes to carefully place the book back where it had been in the library's shelves.</font>
<font color=""#39b54a"">""You kiddin' me? As if I'd let you have all the fun! Ah, I only wish Sephie-chan could be out here."" Meora grins back at Morgan before turning towards an orange-colored phantom claw-strike aimed right at her. At the last moment, Meora flips into the air, and lands on outstretched the phantom arm, balancing precariously for but a second before she runs down it and starts shooting at Numirra. Numirra throws the neko assassin up into the air with that set of claws to help her dodge the shots, and then goes about trying to fend off both Morgan and Srg's magic. After getting his a few times by both, Numirra takes on her normal, intensely bored expression again out of the blue.
""Screw this..."" Numirra yawns. She shapeshifts quickly into a small mouse, and runs underneath Morgan. She turns back into herself again once behind her, and then pretty much just tries to strangle her. She tries to dig her claws, crackling with electricity now, into her neck as well.
Meora, in the meantime, flips several times in the air to try and help break her fall. She lands on her feet for the most part, and upon seeing Numirra's new tactic to defeat her friend, Meora tries to shoot the witch right between the eyes.
""I don't think so~...""
Meora is grabbed by the tail and thrown backwards onto the ground. As she scrambles back up, she sees the smallest witch walking calmly towards her with a sickly sweet smile. The small witch pauses for a moment to dodge Srg's magic, then lands back next to Meora with a giggle.
""Oh Meora...it's okay. I know you don't want to lose anymore friends or family."" Noruani coos gently at the neko, using her own lavender-colored magic to bind her in place. Noruani's eyes glow, and they appear to have red rings in them now, much like a certain evil demon residing at the top of the Demon Highlands. ""But...you can definitely be my friend, and you won't have to lose me...hai?"" The young girl locks eyes with Meora, and the neko assassin finds that she's unable to turn away. Her pupils disappear, laving empty green circles in their place.
""Kimi wa tomodachi...hai?"" Noruani uses Meora's second language to further pry into her mind.
""H....hai, Noru-c-chan...<span class=""bb-i"">yamete...</span>...kimi...w-wa...<span class=""bb-i"">y-yamete...s-sou janai...yo...!..</span>..tomodachi..."" Meora is clearly still fighting against the little witch's hypnotic control, but she appears to be losing even still.
""Yoi~!"" Noruani laughs, clapping her hands together with glee. ""If that's true, then I want you to go help Numirra for me, kudasai~!""
""H..hai, Noru-sama..."" Meora turns around slowly, eyeing Numirra and Morgan. She starts running towards them, aiming to shoot.
""Perhaps I'd make a fine puppet-master after all...just like Father...."" Noruani grins maliciously from the sidelines of the battle.
""AGH! You people have no manners?! Don't you know how to treat a lady?!"" Natasha shrieks. She finally pulls her wing free of Kiroketsu's purple glue, but then, ninja stars are thrown into them. Natasha's eyes glow bright with fury.
""FINE. I know <span class=""bb-i"">exactly</span> how to punish you people now. Someone <span class=""bb-i"">else</span> will just have to suffer!"" Natasha huffs.
""What do you mean?!"" Kiroketsu demands, getting ready to swing his guitar like a bat at the witch. She wags a claw at him.
""Ah-ah-ah, Kiro. You should know by now, you can't just kill a witch and break her curse."" Natasha cackles. ""Mirui has already been injected with my specialty curse. Her mind could belong to my illusions in an instant, should you choose not to follow my demands.""
""Tch! Puh-lease! We've gotten your curses fixed before!"" Kiroketsu growls. ""You can't scare me!""
""No...but I can scare Mirui."" Natasha gets a dangerous glint in her eyes.
""H...huh?"" Mirui blinks as her vision starts to swirl all of a sudden. The scenery around her changes into an illusionary landscape of dark, jagged obsidian ground, and blood red skies as far as the eye can see. Mirui is alone for a bit, which frightens her enough, but then, she hears voices.
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff200"">""Mirui...""
""We want ourselves back...""
""Give them back...""
""Our...parts...""</font></span>
Mirui is suddenly surrounded by a mob of different creatures, all a deathly yellow, who appear to be zombies or ghosts. They're the souls of those who Felixter killed to get what he needed to create Mirui. Of course, she doesn't know that up front. In her deep subconscious the information lies...and Natasha has drawn it back out to the surface through her wicked magic.
Back in reality, Mirui's eyes have gotten huge, and all of a sudden she's started crying, and crumpling down into fetal position, clawing at her own scalp.
""No! NO! STOP IT, I'M A GOOD G-GIRL!"" Mirui roars.
""M-Mirui?"" Kiroketsu takes his eyes off of Natasha for but a second, but it turns out that's just a second too much. In that instant, Natasha is able to rip the guitar out of Kiroketsu's claws with her magic, and then hit him over the head with it like a bat, just as he was planning to do to her. She grabs the dazed spirit guardian by the ears and stuffs the guitar back down his throat violently, but only halfway, so he;'s left struggling and choking on the ground by her feet.
""Now, to repay the ones over there..."" Natasha uses her magic again, yanking the ninja stars out of her wings and throwing them back at dangerous speed towards Kyru, Joe, and Srg.</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""Games? We LOVE games! Our shadow queen hires us to create games all the time! And we also loooove playing games with out living friends too! Sadly, they don't seem to appreciate the fact that the high amount of danger makes them so fun~!"" Amber replies to Karl with a huge grin. Amber and Clancy both gasp at the colorful bombs that Karl throws up into the air.
""I LIKE THIS GUY A LOT!"" Clancy cheers aloud.
""HE SHOULD BE OUR NEW BEST FRIEND! WE SHOULD INVITE HIM DOWN TO SHADOWLAND FOR A PARTY, STAT!"" Amber nods enthusiastically.
""WE SHOULD HAVE HIM HOST WITH US AT ONE OF OUR GAMES!"" Both of the shadows cry out at the same time with laughter.
""Oh dear lord..."" Nimika sighs, still trying to ignore them. Suddenly, the center jewel on her necklace starts to glow again, and she hears a familiar voice in her head.
<font color=""#f49ac2"">Nimika...</font>
""Master...?"" Nimika whispers. ""Is there something you need?""
<font color=""#f49ac2"">""Not from you yet...I just thought I'd let you know what's going on back on the surface...""</font>

Noticing that Numirra had suddenly disappeared, she logically assumed that the witch had shifted into something small so that she could not only move unseen, but also get the upperhand by attacking from behind. Ergo, she turned around as she swapped her silver sword for her father's Levin sword, praying that this next trick would work against Numirra's incoming electricity-based attack. Luckily, her plan of using the sword as a lightning rod worked, allowing most of the electricity to be absorbed from her claws and launch it right back at the witch for double the damage. Then, hearing someone charge towards her while her back was turned, Morgan turned herself into a shadow, allowing her to dodge the incoming onslaught of bullets being fired by the controlled Meora. ""Well, I wasn't counting on that happening..what would father do about this.."" She then made a split-second decision by surging towards Noruani, her shadow wrapping around the witch, before she reverted to normal, the puppet-master now engulfed by a torrent of shadows that she had produced from her arms.

She lets go of Morgan, trying to harness the doubly-powerful electricity strike and recycle it a 2nd time, though in the process, her hair does end up a bit frizzed.
""How troublesome...I wish I could just go back home and eat some pudding or something..."" Numirra yawns, tossing the remaining electricity harnessed from Morgan's attack off-handedly at a Kyru or two before turning towards the magic stairs leading up to the hotel's entrance. ""But...we came here for her, so I guess we should at least try to find her before we leave, eh?""
The anti-magic shields casted on everyone seems to bring Meora to a halt in the middle of the battle. With this boost, Meora fights to tear her mind away from the sinister little demon witch's claws, but even still, she's having much difficulty.
""Oh, Meora-chan, how silly..."" Noruani giggles. ""It's not that easy to defy my power. I've got my father's abilities in me. I-"" The little witch doesn't get to finish her prideful little monologue before she sees Morgan coming at her with a torrent of shadows. Trapped inside, Noruani scowls, and the red rings in her eyes glow a more intense red. She summons up her own magic power from the pit of her soul, enveloping herself with it and trying to rip through the shadows completely.
Upon finally managing to get the guitar back out of his throat, Kiroketsu takes it in his claws and gets back up onto his feet. He spots Mirui on the ground and quickly goes over to help her.
""Mirui? AY, Mirui, look at me! It's gonna be alright!"" He tries to assure her, but his words fall upon deaf ears. The girl is still hopelessly locked inside of her own worst fear in the form of a curse-induced nightmare. Joe's anti-curse spells snap her out of it somewhat, and she finally blinks again, crawling out of fetal position and looking around.
""Eh? Mirui, you okay there? I-WHOA!"" Kiroketsu flinches when the monster girl suddenly leaps at him. Instead of clawing him to pieces as everyone else would, however, she's embraced him, wailing.
""P-PURPLE KITTY-MAN!"" Mirui sobs aloud. ""I-I WAS SOOO-OO-OOO SCAAARED!""
Kiroketsu pauses for a moment, a blush coming across his face. He hesitantly puts an arm around the girl, while fighting back a grin. <span class=""bb-i"">'SCOOORRRRRE! Man, how could you make this moment any better?!'</span> Kiroketsu thinks to himself, and his eyes trail over to Natasha. He gets a determined look in his eyes, and lets go of Mirui to stand back up. She looks up at him in confusion.
""Don't worry, big girl."" Kiroketsu gives her a thumbs-up. ""I'm gonna go make things even! Just you watch!""
With that, he races over to where the witch in green stands, planning to swing his guitar hard right into her side. Unfortunately, his choice to sound out a loud war-cry as he's running makes him easily noticeable to the witch, and seconds before he can attack, Natasha whips around with a blade of magic energy, slicing him in half horizontally.
""Tch. Idiot."" Natasha rolls her eyes, walking away from him and looking at others on the battlefield. She turns to Srg and Joe, since they're the ones healing Sephie's friends with their own spells. She clears her throat for attention. ""You know...at the moment, we're only here seeking one thing. If you could just deliver it to us, we'd just as soon be on our merry way~...""</font>
<font color=""#6ecff6"">Inside of the hotel, the most sought after of the 6 witch sisters is fleeing further up different hallways to get as far away from the entrance and battle outside as possible. The young witch in blue wipes the beginnings of tears away from her eyes while running, and when she finally stops, she's shivering.
""T-they're here for me again...it's my fault that they're hurting my friends...again..."" Nelodine whimpers quietly to herself in the seemingly empty corridor. ""Why can't they leave me alone...?...Why can't I <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> something about them?!...I'm so pathetic...""
""I wouldn't say that.""
Nelodine jumps, whipping around to see a surprising sight.
""N-Nymne?! You....you talk...? Did they teach you?"" Nelodine whispers, taking a step back.
""I always knew how to talk. I just choose to keep it under a beastly mask, so my sisters are none the wiser. Except for maybe you and...possibly Noruani. She knows everything anyway, does she not?"" Nymne chuckles. ""Anyhow...I believe you're quite brave. It's not easy defying your sisters as you have. Even if they come back for you...you can fight them off. I might be willing to help you too...""</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""YAAAAAY, MORE COLORFUL BOMBS OF MAYHEM!"" Clancy cries out with joy.
""Of course you can come party with us whenever you like! Say, maybe you could even become a shadow like us, if you stayed with us long enough in Shadowland~!"" Amber giggles with glee at the thought. The comment makes Nimika shudder slightly. The thought of the already-insane Karl becoming a shadow like Amber and Clancy....why, it's the stuff of nightmares for even the worst of villains.
Nimika's thoughts are taken off of the horrific subject when she spots Gerose and a couple others heading in their direction. She grins after hearing the demon creature in the shirt and jeans tell her that he can take her to the council. ""That would be lovely, and much appreciated...""</font></div>"

Morgan doesn't stop there. ""Shadow Dragon's Roar!"" she quickly uses this moment of opportunity against Noruani and exhales a blast of shadows at the witch, the attack engulfing her entirely with shadows, hopefully overwhelming her to the point of defeat or simple magic fatigue. ""Alright, I hadn't planned until using this until later, but better now than never..Tactician's Seal!"" While time is still on her side, she activates a seal that she had kept hidden for the longest time, doing so by summoning a bright flame in the palm of her right hand and simply crushing it, causing the seal to activate. 

Whether it'd been obvious or not, once Morgan activates the seal, this causes an invisible protective barrier to form on the door that her father and Sephie are currently resting in, preventing anyone from entering or escaping. Also, to add some extra defense, the seal alters the door, warping it into a door that contains three keyholes, each one of them currently locked. This hints that in order to unlock the door, one must track down and defeat the three guardians of that door or die trying.</div>"

All of them blink in surprise.
""W...what is that?"" Kayori asks.
""You think the witches or the Master are behind that...?"" Ammi frowns. ""Regardless, if it gets too close, I'll turn the whole thing to ash...""
""It doesn't seem like something they'd do...let us just monitor it from the side. The real focus of things is below us."" Felixter shakes his head in response.
Meanwhile, as the group is distracted, a small, fast orange snake slithers its way up the stairs and past their feet...</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f"">Noruani continues trying to push against Morgan's torrent of shadows with all of her might, but it seems that once again, the most knowledgeable witch of the group is overpowered by the limits of her smaller body. It always happened that way for Noruani. While her sisters could actually strike someone on their own without magic, Noruani found herself unable to do so, because of her size and stature. At the moment, though, it seemed Noruani wasn't frustrated with that. In fact, as she started giving up and letting the shadows overtake her, she was giggling with glee.
""Meora-chan....terminate..."" Noruani whispered with a sly grin before she stopped pushing back the shadows with her magic completely.
On the battlefield, Meora's ears perked up at the command, and she found herself trembling again as she fought for control over herself. She was still standing rigidly still in the same place, but now, the hand holding her pistol was slowly raising on it's own, and pressing the weapon up to her temple. In desperation, she struggled against that one finger on the trigger, the only thing standing between life and death for her now.
Natasha glares at Joe after hearing his response to her proposition. She sighs, rolling her eyes. ""These people...why, oh why do they always choose the harder route? Fine. It matters not, I suppose. In the end, the Master will always get what he desires...no simple little mutts like yourselves will ever get in the way of someone as powerful as he."" Natasha smirks, shapeshifting into a large demon beast with shiny dark green skin, huge teeth and claws, and larger wings. Her horns become larger, but her witch hat still remains on her head. She dodges most of the oncoming fire and ice bolts, but the ones that hit seem to matter less to her now. She surrounds herself in violent green magic, turns around, and starts flying towards the edge of the battlefield, where one certain person still sits.
""FOR SUCH INSOLENCE, THE INNOCENT SHALL PAY!"" Natasha roars with outstretched claws.
Mirui turns around to see a dark green monster heading straight for her, and starts to scream.
""MIRUI!"" Kiroketsu shouts with horror where he lies on the battlefield, having just put himself back together. He gets up in a hurry with his guitar in his claws, and goes as fast as he can. He arrives just in time to land a perfect shot, connecting his guitar successfully with the witch at last, and hitting her a few feet away.
""YEAH!"" Kiroketsu fist-pumps with a huge grin of satisfaction. Mirui is still shaking, but she lets out a large sigh of relief.
""IT TAKES MUCH MORE THAN A GUITAR TO TAKE ME DOWN, BOY..."" Natasha snarls, getting back up and facing Kiroketsu.
""BRING IT, UGLY HAG!"" Kiroketsu hisses back. Natasha lets out a demon screech of fury and zooms at the spirit guardian. He holds her claws at bay by blocking them with his guitar (which is surprisingly not scratched by any of this, let alone broken), while extending out his tongue and wrapping it around her neck to try and choke her. His face turns a bit green, and not just because of the witch's magic.
""UGH...tastes....horrible...!"" Kiroketsu chokes out.</font>
<font color=""#6ecff6"">Nymne is about to say something else to her sister, when she hears someone behind them all of a sudden. Nymne turns to see Lucas standing there, and for a moment, contemplates whether or not she should dispose of the witness. Would he really do anything? And if he did...would it matter much?
""It is none of your concern, boy. Nothing is wrong here. I am just having a rather important chat with my little sister."" Nymne replies to Lucas with a complacent smile. Nelodine doesn't say anything, but doesn't give off the impression that she's really in trouble either.</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""I'm sure Queen Shadowelle would LOVE to have you down for a party!"" Amber grins happily.
""Yeah! We're the queen's favorites, so any friend of ours is a friend of hers for certain!"" Clancy nods in agreement.
""Well, I-"" Nimika starts, but stops as soon as she sees Karl being attacked. Of course, she doesn't do anything to stop this at all, as it looks as if he deserved it. Nimika simply turns her attention back to the demon, walking along with his and listening to what he has to say.
""Them?"" Nimika glances back at Amber and Clancy, then turns back to the guide demon. ""Friends? No. They just followed me here...but, really, I've had experience with those two. They're on the same level as Karl here seems to be."" She explains, then nods at his explanation of the council. She grins. ""Well, the real power comes from my commander, the Master, as he's called. However, as his top worker and representative, I'm sure I can do just fine with impressing the council...""
Back where Amber and Clancy are, they turn to the next person to address them, and grin.
""Oh, yeah, we followed you~!"" Amber admits with a hum.
""It seemed like a fun adventure to go on!"" Clancy adds enthusiastically. Both of the shadows then notice Karl and start laughing again.
""It's so good to know that there are such cool people till out there~!"" Both of the shadows say simultaneously.</font></div>"

Srg seeing Meora put her gun to her head, he runs up, grabs her arm and pulls it down so that the gun is pointing at him.""Pull the trigger, I'll survive trust me little one Srg knows what he is doing."" He tells her hoping she has enough strength to the fight the witches magic.

""Okay family matters. If you really need help I think screaming will work."" Lucas backs up and goes back to the room, which he now finds locked. ""Okay guess I'll just sit here then."" He sits down next to the door.


""Hey now I'm the only one who gets to beat up Kiro."" Joe seeing Natasha go to attack Mirui and then Kiro jumping between them, switches stances once more and does some awesome rolls to stand next to Kiro. He then throws a couple of kegs at Natasha covering her in beer, which he then proceeds to set on fire using his fire breath attack.</div>"

She then reforms behind a nearby tree, trying to catch her breath and regain a bit of energy. ""Man...father, I hope you wake up soon...at this rate, I might not be able to fully focus in battle.."" She states to herself, quietly panting as she slumps unto the ground, sitting under the shade of the tree as she now takes the time to heal any possible wounds she may have received during her recent chain of fights.</div>"

Joe turns as he hear this giant woosh, seeing the giant tree and wooden figure coming he grabs Kiro and Miuri, and rolls out of the giants way.

BOB continues to fire his magic thinking to his skeletal self, 'I don't like fire, I like ice though and lighting.' He stops shooting fire balls and starts casting frost bolts and lighting lances slowing and shocking anyone who doesn't have an anti-magic shield. 

Kyru turns towards the giant and thinking to herself 'What hurts wood? Fire but I can't use fire moves. Well wood is like grass and ice hurts grass. No that wouldn't work.

As the group of friends is distracted with concern for their other friends on the field, they are at a disadvantage. Numirra places one foot on the ground in front of the other, and the ground around her glows with faint orange energy.
""It's charging right into the battlefield!"" Kayori cries in regards to the huge wooden figure on the move.
""Should I go try to burn it now?"" Ammi growls.
Before Felixter can make any kind of statement to either or them, all of them are suddenly grabbed by the ankles by tendrils of orange magic, and electrocuted for a few seconds, until they're dazed. Kayori falls over, while Ammi and Felixter struggle to recover.
""W-what was...that...?"" Felixter mumbles, shaking his head.
""What? This?"" Numirra yawns and does the same thing to them again.</font>
<font color=""#00aeef"">Nelodine and Nymne nod to Lucas, and watch him leave before turning back to each other to continue their conversation.
""You want to help me? B-but...helping me would mean helping Sephie too. There's no way around that."" Nelodine frowns slightly.
""I'm aware. I have no problem with that for now."" Nymne shrugs. ""And I never will, if they don't choose to get directly in my way. Honestly, I admire how long they've survived, despite almost every possible factor being against them...""
""S-so...what do we do? If our sisters come up here looking for me-"" Nelodine starts.
""-I'll pull the 'savage' card."" Nymne cuts her off with a smirk. ""They still think I'm a killer beast who only speaks through animal sounds. I could just attack them in an uncontrollable rampage, right?""
""I guess so..."" Nelodine nods slowly.
Suddenly, both witches are hit with the sounds of the battle outside, specifically the large, hulking wooden beast stomping around, and also the sounds of dangerous electricity from the lobby.
""Things are getting rougher now, aren't they...?"" Nymne murmurs.
""M-maybe we <span class=""bb-i"">should</span> try to wake up Sephie....um, I-I'm gonna go check on her."" Nelodine starts running off in the directiont hat Lucas went. Nymne follows her at a less hurried pace.
""W-what?"" Nelodine blinks when she finds the door that Sephie and Michael are behind, but sees that the lock has changed drastically, and the door won't open. ""What...what is this?""
""Looks as if someone altered the door with some sort of magic."" Nymne suggests when she arrives at the door. ""It won't open without 3 special keys, or so it looks...""
""Where do we get them? Are you sure there's no other way?"" Nelodine turns to her older sister.
""I don't know the answer to those questions, unfortunately, but I know that whoever did this must."" Nymne responds. ""And if I had to take a guess, I'd say the one responsible is someone out there on the battlefield as we speak...""</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f"">Though she's trying her best to keep herself in control, Meora finds herself just about to pull the trigger, until her gun is suddenly swiped from her hands. She glances back towards Morgan with a small smile...and then she's suddenly punched, sent hurtling to the ground. <font color=""#39b54a"">She's sure that she passes out, but a second later, she opens her eyes in a dream world of some sort. She's been here before. It has always been a sort of ""meeting room"" for her, her soul, her conscience, and other parts within her. It looks similar to that of a quaint little Japanese tea room.
""Hora..."" Meora murmurs.
""Konnichiwa, Meora-sama.""
Meora turns at the sound of her own voice from the other side of the room. A girl identical to her in appearance (besides this girl being much more groomed...) sits peacefully on a pillow at one side of a small table with a tea set. This Meora appears to be wearing a silky, emerald-green kimono with golden details, and a jade green sash. She gestures to the other pillow at the opposite end of the table. The real Meora sits down.
""Why am I here again, Maore-sama?"" Meora asks her calmer self.
""Oh, I just thought you might like to take care of the little disturbance you've been facing here personally."" Maore, as she's called, sips from a teacup, then points to a corner of the room. A small lavender-colored nightmare creature of sorts crawls around on the wall, turning it a dirty dark purple. It is undoubtedly the manifestation of Noruani's presence in Meora's mind.
""Your weapons are in the other room. The door to the left."" Maore is strangely calm and collected despite the monster in the same room with them. ""Have at it, Meora-sama.""
""Hai. Arigatou."" Meora grins as she heads away towards the weapon room. ""This should be fun...""
""Souka."" Maore's small smile grows a bit, in a secretive sort of way, ""I'm partially here to keep you intact, aren't I...?""</font>
And though all of this goes on in her head, in reality, Meora is out cold on the ground temporarily from Srg's punch, only twitching slightly every now and again.
Noruani now lies on the ground, still breathing, but utterly exhausted, and unable to move much. She watches the battle continue on with a bit of a smirk still left on her face. She even giggles slightly, but it hurts to. What catches her eye the most is Morgan, as she runs to take cover after taking Meora's weapon away.
""...Father......"" Noruani pulls a faint, creepy grin.
""GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"" Demon-monster Natasha lets out a horrific screech as she's set ablaze, and immediately starts twisting around in Kiroketsu's grip to try and get away, so she can put herself out.
In the meantime, Kiroketsu suddenly finds himself going from laughing like a madman at the burning demon witch in front of him, to tackled over, along with Mirui, away from something big in the distance. He ends up pulling his tongue back away from Natasha in the process, as the monstrously transformed demon witch swoops away in the opposite direction to avoid the tree flying into the battlefield. Mirui looks up at the huge wooden figure chasing after the tree it threw into the battlefield, and screams with fear.
""What the hell is THAT?!"" Kiroketsu cries, a bit intimidated himself. While letting Mirui cling to his arm, he tries to use his link with Sephie's soul to tap into her thoughts, to check if she's awake.
""C-c'mon, Seph! WE NEED YOUR CRAZY MURDEROUS-NESS!"" Kiroketsu begs aloud.</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""HECK YEAH, PARTY TIME!"" Amber cheers aloud in agreement.
""LET'S GO TAKE OVER AN AMUSEMENT PARK AGAIN!"" Clancy suggests with a wide grin. Both of the shadows laugh aloud, giddy with thoughts of their future plans. They turn to Gerose to address his questions.
""We don't really have a reason for following you here. We just wanted to see the seeeeecrets that could be hidden!"" Amber giggles.
""We rode along with Nimika's shadow on the ground there. See?"" Clancy points to the witch's shadow. ""We can melt into dark places. Including the cracks of the brain. That's how we possess people sometimes!""
""As for why we're so much like Karl..."" Amber begins.
""...We don't know, but we think he's awesome!"" Clancy finishes the statement, and both shadows laugh again.</font></div>"

Numirra hits the nearest wall, and falls onto the ground. She grimaces while holding her broken, bleeding nose. However, the expression only slightly alters her usual bored one. She still looks helplessly unamused and zoned out, as if not really paying attention to what's going on.
""...Hmph. You have no manners...and people wonder if chivalry's dead...did it ever even exist?"" Numirra stands back to her feet with a slight yawn. She extends a hand, glowing orange, and looks as if she's about to-

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f49ac2"">""Numirra, Natasha, Noruani. Fall back now. This battle is slowly becoming pointless, not to mention boring to me. There are much better things you could be doing. I've devised something new, so I require you all out of battle now.</font></span>

The sudden telepathic command broadcasted to all 3 of the witches causes them all to freeze in the middle anything they might've been doing. Numirra puts down her hand with a slow sigh.
""...Welp, time to go home."" She shrugs, then strolls down a nearby hall. She opens up the nearest window, and jumps out, shapeshifitng in the form of an orange canary, and disappearing into the sky above the forest.
Natasha, having put herself out from the flames, comes to a halt in her beastly form. Instead of changing back, she follows the Master's orders by using her enhanced speed to her advantage. She races across the battlefield, picks up her barely conscious, beaten littlest sister, and runs off towards the woods with her. All the while, Noruani is still smiling rather eerily...
""Ugh...they just...left...?"" Kayori is the first of Felixter's small group in the hotel to get up after the horrid electrocution they suffered. ""W-why...? With everyone distracted by that huge wooden behemoth...they could've easily done something. At the very least, kidnapped someone...""
""M-maybe....maybe that's why they left. Perhaps it wasn't any fun for them anymore. The Master views us all like toys and puppets, you know..."" Ammi murmurs. She sits up, and immediately starts helping Kayori and Felixter first with their possible injuries, instead of even worrying about herself.
""It could still be something worse..."" Felixter frowns deeply when he finally sits up with the others. ""...It's possible that they've been called back for something new. A new plot of the Master's. In fact, I find it highly likely that, in the midst of this giant wooden threat we face, the Master saw no need for the witches to be here, as it already posed a great enough challenge. Therefore, he made a new, wicked plan instead, and has now called his witches back to begin the process of making it a reality.""
""...Good to see that your brain wasn't fried too bad, Felixter."" Kayori begins to beam at the slightly older boy.
""I'm willing to put trust in that theory. After all...you know Kebaratsu the best, don't you...?"" Ammi nods in agreement.
back down on the ground, Kiroketsu watches Natasha flee with Noruani, a triumphant grin spreading wide across his face.
""YEAH! THAT'S RIGHT! YOU BETTER RUN, YA HAGS!"" He cries out after them tauntingly.
""Are...are the scary witches leaving?"" Mirui brightens up a bit at this news, but she still doesn't give up clinging to Kiroketsu. In fact, Kiroketsu even puts an arm around the monster girl's shoulder.
""That's right, big girl! They're gone for now! See, what'd I tell ya? Ol' Kiro here will protect ya, no matter what, my dear!"" Kiroketsu flashes what he believes to be a winning smile at Mirui, and she giggles.
""HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE PUTTING YOUR HANDS, YOU PERV!"" Kayori calls aloud from the doorway of the floating hotel. Kiroketsu's smile transforms into a scowl, fast.
""OH, C'MON! I'M CLEARLY NOT EVEN DOING ANYTHING RIGHT NOW!"" Kiroketsu throws up his free hand into the air to go with his cry of outrage.
""That's probably a good thing, considering you're not really in the clear yet, you two!"" Ammi calls down as well. Kiroketsu is about to ask her hat she means, when his attention is once more drawn to the huge wooden figure stomping all around the battlefield. Thankfully, it doesn't look as if it's paying attention to him or Mirui.
""R-right...yeeeeeah, m-maybe we should head back into the hotel now, big girl!"" Kiroketsu gets up. His expression brightens up again as soon as he realizes what that means. He puts his feet and tail together, and they all merge into one ghostly, wispy ending to his body. Then he picks up Mirui (with a bit of difficulty, considering the big monster girl's weight), and starts carrying her above the battle, back into the hotel.
""Worry not, fair maiden! I, Kiroketsu, your shining knight in armor, shall make sure you get back to the others without a single scratch!"" Kiroketsu declares boldly.
""Weeeeeee! Flying!"" Mirui gasps happily, not exactly paying the most attention to Kiro...</font>
<font color=""#6ecff6"">""Oh no...I hope-"" Nelodine starts, but she can't finish before there are more noises from outside. The witch in blue and her older sister move towards a window where they can view the battle, and see their sisters fleeing the scene.
""Hmph. Seems they're leaving already. A pity. I wanted to be able to be of some use to you, dear little sister."" Nymne murmurs as she watches. ""Now I must make haste away, back to our new hideout.""
""You...you have to leave with them?"" Nelodine frowns. Though all of her sister were evil in some respect, or at the very least quite questionable, she still cared about all of them. Even Natasha, who stabbed out her eyes to the point where Ammi couldn't even completely heal them. So goes the story of Nelodine's glasses...
""Yes. It'll arouse too much suspicion all at once if I'm not back soon enough. Maybe I'll kill something on the way to the lair, so I have an alibi if they ask, or even care in the first place."" Nymne starts opening the window so that she can flee along with the other witch sisters. Before she does, though, she turns to Nelodine, and puts something in her hand. ""Here. This way, I can still be of some use. If indescribable trouble stirs up between all of us witch sisters, such as me getting found out, or something of that nature...break this.""
Nelodine looks at the object in her hand. It is a smooth, round, milky-white gem in the shape of an orb, hardly bigger than a marble. It radiates a small amount of light, and carries a distinct air of...sadness.
""What...what is this, sister?"" Nelodine asks. Nymne shows off another stone of similar qualities, except the color of it is a hazy dark gray, and the air it gives off is more...intriguing.
""I almost pray that you never find out...for it is the biggest, most unstable of the secrets kept between us witches of the Master.....all 8 of us."" Nymne replies as she turns her back, facing the window.
""8.....w-wait a minute, 8?! But, there's only 6 of us-!"" Nelodine cries, but by that time, her sister has already shifted into the guise of a hawk, and is flying away from her...</font>
<font color=""#8dc73f""><font color=""#39b54a"">In the world of her inner minds, Meora's battle against Noruani's force has begun. She's chosen an array of guns, and has set about fighting the demon. In that one side of the room, it's a grand display of flips, dodges, and a rain of different assorted projectiles and bullets. Yet, on the other side, Maore sits quietly, peacefully at her little tea table, paying absolutely no mind whatsoever. At one point, a piece of debris from the destructive battle even lands right in her tea, but she simply picks it out, flicks it away, and goes on as if nothing ever happened.
Meora only gains a greater advantage when Noruani is forced to leave the battlefield in the real world, weakening her tie on Meora's mind further. With this, the neko girl is able to pull out her signature pistol, and take out the offending mental bug in one clean, but still explosive shot.
""Job done, Maore-sama. You can go back to being peaceful again."" Meora grins, lowering her gun.
""You say that as if that wasn't already the case with me."" Maore chuckles slightly. ""But, regardless, with that done, it's time for you to go back on your merry way to consciousness.""
Meora pauses for a minute, oddly silent. She turns to face Maore.
""...Maore-sama...ne, watashi-""
""Kudasai. Don't waste time saying what you've already said 1000 times over."" The supposed double finally stands from the table, and comes face to face with Meora. ""You need to go back. Go back and live, as always.""
""...G...Gomenasai, Maore-sama....w-watashi..."" Meora can't stop herself from shaking in front of herself, because in truth....Maore isn't herself.
""...Onee-sama. Yamete."" Maore holds a graceful smile, filled with almost a grave sort of peace, on her face. She pulls Meora into a hug. ""You couldn't do anything. It was my destiny to die for you in that warm, peaceful chamber of life...you were the only one meant to be born, always. Nothing you could have consciously done...not even if you held the same awareness then somehow as you have now...nothing would have changed, onee-sama.""
""...Hai..."" Meora admits unhappily.
""I'm fine, though...being able to take care of you from here is more than I could have wished for. So, go on, then. Sayonara, onee-sama....aishiteru.""</font>
After all is said and done, Meora is numbly aware of herself being picked up and supported by someone. When she opens her eyes, she can faintly catch the scent of Morgan around her from her cat-like senses. Meora smirks a bit.
""Ah...gomene, Morgan-chan. I hope I didn't do anything too stupid under that little brat's control. It's regretful I had to stay out of it like that....feel like I missed out on a lot of the fun...hehe...""</font>
<font color=""#ec008c"">""We take over amusement parks and looooots of other places!"" Clancy grins.
""It's so we can have fun with a large amount of people, and maybe have a grand feast, too!"" Amber claps her hands together cheerfully. The two turn to Karl to listen to what he's saying, and return his hug enthusiastically.
""Heck yeah! We've never met anyone as fun as you who wasn't a shadow already!"" Clancy nods.
""Welllll....except for Master Insanity."" Amber points out. ""I mean, after all, he's the pure embodiment of insanity itself~!""
Nimika is more than happy to leave the shadows behind as she continues following her demon guide to the council. She takes note of how extravagant the shining dome they're heading up towards is, and just barely catches the rest of her guide's words. She smirks a bit.
""My, you flatter me, sir. Though, I'll admit, there's more than one reason that I'm the Master's head representative and employee."" Nimika giggles slightly in reply to the demon's comment on her looks. She also nods at the rest of his advice, ""Yes, yes...I'm sure I can do wonders for these people, and so can the Master...""</font></div>"

""Don't worry about it! I'm relieved to be able to say that there were no casualties in this battle..well, not yet, hopefully...You stay here with the others. Someone's gotta take that giant death trap down...and one way or another, I'll do it."" The young tactician states as she sets her friend down before turning around and stepping towards the open doors once more. Having kept a mental tab on The giant manikin's fighting style and almost crippling weakness to ice based attacks, she decides to go out with a bang, calling up on almost all of her magical energy for this one. Those in the general vicinity can practically feel the magic radiating from her as she takes a step, now standing in the doorway so she can get a clear shot at the wooden giant. ""Alright..here goes nothing...Deep Freeze!"" As she extends her hand towards the wooden colossus, a equally large magic circle appears underneath it. What happens next might have been expected by the name of the spell, but it's still impressive, for the giant wooden death machine is now being incased in a enormous crystal of ice, quickly spreading from its feet to its head. However, this spell leaves Morgan rather drained, for she begins to sway until finally, she falls. Luckily, however, she falls on her back, saving her from falling down a long ways to the ground. ""Heh..did I do it..Father..?"" She murmurs as she quickly slips out of consciousness, seeming to have fully depleted her energy. 

Now, in correspondence to Morgan's defeat, a blue orb of light appears above her unconscious form for a brief moment before shattering itself, the pieces glittering like snowfall. As a result, one of the three locks on the door unlocks itself, the noise of it being unlocked echoing throughout the halls. Soon after, the lock disappears, the red and green locks now remaining. 

However, it seems that wasn't the only result that occurred from that spell. It seems Morgan's words reached her father, for after so long, the tactician awakes, his eyes slowly opening. However, instead of the kind, warm brown that they usually are, they are now a cold red, almost a shade of crimson. He utilizes his own Tactician's Seal to bypass the remaining locks, not snuffing out the flame until he has exited the room. This causes the door to re-lock itself, so that no harm will come to Sephie. The red lock glows brightly in response to Michael's presence. However, the glow quickly dulls as he takes his leave, seeming to not even notice Lucas, who has been by the door this whole time. To the others, his presence would be the only familiar thing about him. His magic seems to have changed almost completely, possibly sparking some form of fear in each and every one of them.</div>"

Michael, seeing that despite all of the effort his daughter put into that attack, the ice hadn't lasted for long, The Tortured having broken out of its frozen prison with surprising ease. Right afterwards, the wooden colossus  had rammed right into the hotel's barrier, causing the whole building to jolt as it was moved slightly back. The mannequin then unleashed a brutal onslaught of punches upon the hotel's defenses, causing the shield to strain itself in order to hold its position. ""Hmph..don't worry, Morgan...I'll reduce this thing to mere rubble."" With that being said, the tactician leaps out towards his current foe, red eyes glaring.

""Begone...Wind Style: Rasen Shuriken!""

However, instead of disappearing afterwards, it simply expands, doing even more damage to its body. Now all that remains is its head, lifeless as ever.</div>"

Sephie digs her claws into her scalp, unable to find solace within even her own thoughts. It feels like she's losing this time, and that she won't be able to stop herself. She curls up in the middle of the bed and wraps her wings around herself, trembling, fighting to keep herself sane. Then, she realizes...the sheets were messed up before she even got up.<br/>Someone else was here.<br/>""W...what...?!"" Sephie blinks, trying to think of who that could be. The scent, she recognizes it....is it Michael? If so, why isn't he here? There's no blood, but...did she do something horrible? Is...is he dead?<br/>""No...nononono....nonononononNOOO!"" Sephie cries out, and suddenly, she stops all movement. She drops her paws back to her side, and the pupils of her eyes shrink. She grins, slowly releasing herself from her wings, and getting up to move towards the door. She finds it to be locked. Sephie growls, and slashes the door, leaving long claw marks down it. She then proceeds to try and find a window, or any other way to break free. Of course, in this situation, what will probably end up happening is that she'll go through every weapon in that bag on her side, mercilessly beating on the walls of the room and the door, until she finds something, <span class=""bb-i"">anything</span> living that she can splatter the blood of...</font><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">""Get you a beer?! Eh, what do I look like, a bartender?! I'm tending to a distraught young lady here!"" Kiroketsu calls back at Joe, then turns his full attention back to Mirui with a grin, setting her down ever so gently on the floor next to her, and taking a bow. ""We've arrived, my fair lady.""<br/>""That was cool!"" Mirui claps her hands together in glee. Kiroketsu flashes her a mischievous look in return, ""Well, if you really wanna have a good time with me, we could-""<br/>""NOPE."" Kayori hurries over to stand in between Mirui and Kiroketsu, even though she's just about the shortest, most petite person in the lobby at the moment, and both of them are the tallest.<br/>""-GO FLY AROUND WITH OUR FRIENDS IN A RACE. GEEZ, LET ME FINISH BEFORE YOU JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS!"" Kiroketsu finishes, huffing at Kayori.<br/>""Your behavior leaves absolutely  no room for that, and you know it."" Kayori glares back at him.<br/>""Well I-"" Kiroketsu can't finish before he's cut off by something else. His eyes widen, and he drops everything he was doing.<br/>""Kiroketsu, what's wrong?"" Felixter takes a more serious tone with the guardian spirit. He's seen enough over the years to know what this very well could mean, regarding his sister.<br/>""Seph. She's up, and even though none of us woke her up in the middle of her dream...it seems one of the worst things has happened."" Kiroketsu seems to have gotten more serious as well, already turning to head upstairs and guard Sephie's room. Maybe try to stop her, should she manage to get out somehow.<br/>""The troubles just never end..."" Ammi lets out a weary sigh, looking out onto the battlefield.<br/>""Stay here?! Tch...alright, I guess. I still hate having to miss out on all of the fun like this...."" Meora utters a mild protest in response to Morgan telling her to stay in the hotel. She obeys, however, and instead watches the battle with Ammi.<br/>""Ah! Morgan-chan!"" Meora blinks when her friend is sent into unconsciousness from using up so much power. She starts to move towards the doors of the hotel to help, but Ammi grabs her shoulder, and shakes her head. ""I'll get her. It's safer that way. Besides, I still have to check her and everyone else for injuries. It's sort of my job, isn't it?""<br/>Meora lets out a reluctant sigh. ""...Hai, Ammi-sama...""<br/>Ammi chuckles a bit at this, then spreads out her wings of golden flame, and takes flight through the hotel doors. She quickly flies around The Tortured to evade it's attacks aimed on the hotel, and gets to the ground to carefully pick up Morgan. Ammi makes sure to completely avoid both the big wooden titan, and Michael's attacks also, while getting his daughter back into the hotel lobby. Making it back inside, she sets the girl down gently, propping her up against a wall.<br/>""There we are."" Ammi beams, then turns back to look at everyone else. ""So, after I check Morgan here for injuries, who wants to be healed next?""<br/>""You don't think that it's a tab bit early for that, Ammi dear?""<br/>Ammi and the others turn at the sound of a familiar voice, which comes closer from up the stairs to the hotel's front door. Making her way inside is a very tall woman, just a bit taller than Mirui, but just a bit shorter than Kiroketsu. She wears a formal, lacy black dress with darker red details, and a black hat with a veil to match, which partially hides her unusually beautiful hazel eyes. Her ludicrously long, dark silver hair trails behind her as she walks, and her hands are covered by dark red gloves, smelling ever so faintly of blood...<br/>""Lucille."" Felixter mutters. ""Do you have something to do with my sister's current state...?""<br/>""No. In fact, that's why I came. As the technical owner of your souls, and as my dear little hellions, It's my job to look after you, is it not? I couldn't just leave you here alone...though, I do know how excellent Ammi's care is."" Lucille explains with a soft, but slightly eerie smile. She doesn't seem like an enemy....yet...</font><br/><br/><font color=""#ec008c"">Nimika waits politely for all of the demons on the council to be seated, before clearing her throat and beginning to state her cause.<br/>""My hopeful allies, I have come here to let you know why I've made my way to Shava, and how you could possibly take part in a grand new land. You see, my employer, Kebaratsu, or as we call him, ""The Master"", has chased after a specific group of rebels for years now, as they're threatening his ascent into becoming a demon god, and hold a secret that threatens the proud, grandly evil land of the Demon Highlands. These rebels are in Shava now, by request of Fedoraman, and I, as well as my sisters, have been sent after them as usual. If help in this matter could be obtained by those of such high stature, yourselves, .....then I'm positive that our needs could be met, and the Demon Highlands will grow. You'll be compensated handsomely. Maybe even become rulers of the lands as well, as they expand and take over the world...""</font></div>"

He slightly relieved to find that there's a magic lock in place, and he hopes dearly that it'll keep her from breaking out and attacking everyone else. However, if she can break a wall-
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">SMASH!</span></span>
-which it sounds like she's certainly trying to do right now, then the lock would become obsolete. That is, of course, unless it's force spreads not just on the door, but the walls also. Kiroketsu has no idea, by he knows he's got to calm this girl down somehow before she gets out, regardless. Though it sounds bad to do to a young girl, a hit to the head, or something of that effect, usually calms her down in these cases. So does defeating her in battle, and knocking her unconscious altogether. The same can possibly be said for her brother as well...though, he seems to exemplify different qualities. Scarier ones...
""Sephie? Sephie, do you hear me?"" Kiroketsu calls through the door. He's only got auditory techniques to work with now, since Sephie's locked in this room. Hopefully he can bring her back, because he knows she can stay like this for extended amount of time. She stayed in this volatile state once for more than 2 days, because no one could get close enough to do anything...
Inside of the room, Sephie turns from the dent she's made in the wall, to the door where a vaguely familiar voice is calling her. She's not in Shava anymore. She's in a prison cell, a prisoner of the war. She's 4 years old, a child soldier in this war between all the citizens of the Demon Highlands, along with her brother and Meora. They have a war like this every week...it's horrible...but, Sephie can't focus on that now. Felixter's up there without her help somewhere. Meora, 6 years old, disappeared somewhere. Hopefully not kidnapped. She could die. They could do something horrible to her before they killed her. Disgusting demons...
""Who's there?! If you've come to torture me, then I'll show no mercy if you step foot in here! I promise you by the hand of the great demon gods, damn you!"" Sephie shrieks at the stranger behind the door. She knows somewhere, she's heard this voice...but, where?
""Sephie, calm down."" Kiroketsu keeps a cool head through all of this, acting surprisingly prepared and serious in this situation. A big change from his usual demeanor. ""Can you tell me where you are? What's going on?""
""I...I'm trapped! C-comrade, I'm trapped!"" Sephie yells back. ""Felixter and Meora are up there somewhere, in the middle of this war! I have to get out of this damned hole and help them! Can you help?! PLEASE, PLEASE!""
Kiroketsu grimaces at this information. Great. She thinks she's trapped in a dungeon of the enemy during one of the Demon Highlands' wars...that definitely means that she'll be aiming to kill anyone and maybe everyone, should she break out of this room.
""Sephie, please, I need ya to calm down. The war...well, this particular one you're talking about, has been over for 11 years. I-"" Kiroketsu can't finish before the door is suddenly hit with a sharp blow. Sephie starts yelling out what would sound like gibberish to anyone else, but coming from the same homeland as her, Kiroketsu recognizes it as a stream of curse words in the native language of the Demon Highlands.</font>
<font color=""#bc8dbf"">Ammi is taken aback somewhat by Michael's actions, and his proposition of what she's done to Morgan. She huffs, slightly annoyed.
""Now, Michael, really...you know I'm the goddess of motherly prowess and healing, correct? I've no reason to harm this girl. I was just taking her back here to protect her unconscious body from getting harmed further, just lying out there on the battlefield that was still being used..."" Ammi puts her paws on her hips while she speaks. Though she definitely senses the difference in the air about Micheal, and his behavior, she hopes that all common sense hasn't left him, and he can still comprehend what she just said. Basically, she hopes he's not flipped into some horrible part of his mind like Sephie seems to have just done, because Ammi knows from experience that she hardly listens to a word anyone says in that state...
""Well, at least Michael-kun here still recognizes his own daughter and cares for her."" Meora notices the difference in Michael pretty fast also, but doesn't seem incredibly worried. That's due to her own nature, of course. Meora holds the thought that she can handle pretty much any bad situation, with her signature gun at her si-
OH! Her gun!
""Ah? Where did it go?!"" Meora mutters, trying to search for her pistol. She hadn't been awake when Morgan put it into her own holster, so she's unaware of it's whereabouts. Meora huffs when she can find it. ""Fine. Whatever. I'll use another gun for now, if I even have to...""
""I would very much hope we wouldn't have to resort to violence here..."" Felixter murmurs. ""But, if such a thing happens...maybe you should take Mirui somewhere else, Kayori. I wouldn't want her to get upset, or caught in the crossfire.""
""Well...as much as I hate to leave your side...I suppose you're right..."" Kayori nods slowly, not taking her eyes off of Michael's blade.
""Ah, Fedoraman. I believe I do faintly remember you. It has been quite awhile, hasn't it?"" Lucille laughs lightly at Fedoraman's greeting, then turns to watch Michael for a moment. She frowns a bit. ""Hmm...my own nature and his actions now makes me want to hate him...and yet, his concern for his daughter and the fact that my little Sephie and Felixter here seem to know him make me feel othewise....how interesting...""
""N-Ne! Matte! What do you think you're doing?!"" Meora snaps towards Lucas. ""You can't just walk in front of a blade! That's a terrible idea!""
Felixter takes note of Lucas's actions immediately, assuming that if he doesn't do something soon, the boy will end up injured, perhaps even fatally. Felixter steps up to the side, next to Michael and Lucas, with his one regular eye set on Michael.
""Michael, think carefully about what you're doing. We're your allies, remember?"" Felixter's says aloud in a gravely serious tone, as if it were a matter of life or death, to help really make his words stand out. It's a technique he's tried and had work a few times with his sister. ""No harm has come to Morgan. I've made sure of that this whole time, as has Ammi here, and Meora. We'd never do that. There would be no reason to do so, logically. As allies, we stick together and help each other, don't we?""
While he's talking, Felixter has one hand in a pocket of his pants, prepared to use a ""different"" approach, should the situation become too unstable. Kayori and Mirui watch on with worry...but it's unclear on who they're truly worried about, here...</font></div>"

She's overjoyed to find that her father is standing before her. However, she's also very worried considering he's pointing a sword at whom he considered to be his comrades a while ago. ""F-Father..? What're you doing..?"" She asks him, at least trying to draw his attention away from the others.</font><font color=""red"">The tactician's eyes widen in shock as he hears his daughter speak, turning to face her with a look of extreme relief present on his face. ""Morgan! Are you alright? What have they done to you?"" He asks, clearly confused about who the enemy really is at this current point in time. He rushes over to his daughter, now kneeling before her.</font><font color=""mediumslateblue"">Morgan smiles sympathetically at her father, now being able to confirm the current issue. She weakly brings her right hand up to her father's face, it now resting on his right cheek. ""They're not the enemy, father...they're our friends..you know that."" She then cringes as a wave of pain rolls over her body, now struggling to keep her eyes open.</font><font color=""red"">After listening to what she has to say, Michael nods in understanding, his eyes returning to their normal brown. ""You're right...thank you for setting the record straight, Morgan...get some well deserved rest.."" He says as he takes her hand in his, squeezing it gently as she finally falls asleep, it now being her turn to regain her strength. The tactician then gently takes her hand in places it on her lap. Quietly rising up unto his feet and turning around to look his comrades in the eyes. ""Allow me to apologize for my behavior. I can assure that I'll do my best to keep myself under control. Someone mind filling me in on what has happened?"" He inquires, wanting to get caught up on the action he has missed out on.</font></div>"

We're experienced when it comes to people who have a sort of..'light switch' effect, regarding their modes of behavior."" Ammi gives Michael one of her signature warm smiles as she moves over to place a paw on his shoulder. ""That includes me, Felixter, and Sephie....oh, right...Sephie...""<br/>""What happened? Ah man, you missed all the fun, Michael-kun! After you and Sephie passed out, some of our other friends here arrived."" Meora gestures to Kayori and Mirui as she talks. ""That's Kayori and Mirui. Or you could just call 'em 'Kay-kay the Half-Shadow' and  'Kaiju Shoujo', as I do sometimes.""<br/>""Um...I'd...prefer Kayori..."" Kayori shakes her head with a chuckle.<br/>""I don't care! As long as it's not a mean name."" Mirui grins, wabing to Michael. ""Hi new person! Are you a friend of Felixter's?""<br/>""Mirui was created by me...so, forgive her odd behavior. Though she looks older, she's only about...3 or so."" Felixter mutters to Michael.<br/>""Anyway, yeah, our friends came, but then 3 of Nimika's sisters, Natasha, Numirra, and Noruani tried to capture Mirui, and we ended up having a big battle with them that ended just a bit ago. They were after their rebel sister over here, Nelodine. Y'know, the nicer witch in blue."" Meora continues on with her recap. ""There were some other enemies too, like this big huge thing I didn't really get a good look at. I know you beat it just now, though. So, now we're all kind of just here, waiting for the next horrific thing to happen.""<br/>""And if Sephie doesn't get better, that could be pretty soon..."" Kayori murmurs with concern.<br/>""Ah, yes. I was going to say that."" Ammi nods toward the half-shadow girl, then turns back to Michael. ""If you were in a different state of mind, you might not remember this...but was anything wrong with Sephie when you left the room you two were in? It seems she's just woken up, and she's doing...sort of the same thing you just did. Except...we know all too well what happens when Sephie is locked in her PTSD...too many lives were lost, back when I wasn't a goddess...."" She sighs a bit regretfully.<br/>""Maybe now that he's doing a bit better mentally, I can hate him less..."" Lucille hums halfway to herself, eyeing Michael behind her veil.<br/>""Oh. Right...um, also, this is Lucille."" Felixter clears his throat, feeling obligated to introduce the woman who currently owns part of his soul, and what's left of his sister's. ""Despite her looks and demeanor, by no means should you ever attack her.""<br/>""That's right."" Lucille purrs back, moving to loom over Felixter, and place a hand on his head. ""You could say I'm something of a...protector to these little children and their friends. Anywhere they go, I am already there. True, I own part of their souls and make them do arguably horrible things as payment...but I give them more power and less chances to lose their beloved comrades in return."" Her smile is sweet, but it gives off an ominous feel...<br/>""I suppose our first priority now, since the witches have retreated, is to find a way to keep Sephie from getting loose...though, honestly, I'm quite shocked she hasn't already. Could it be that Kiroketsu is actually doing his job for once?"" Felixter has a light smirk on his face as he looks up towards the stairs nearby.<br/>""Hmm...maybe there's more at work here..."" Meora huffs. ""...Ya think I should go up there and see what's up? I can handle a crazy Sephie, you know I can. You've seen me do it single-handedly. Y'know, because I'm just that awesome."" She winks with a prideful grin.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#ec008c"">Not too much later, Nimika returns to Shava, having dealt with her meeting with the Council quite well. She didn't get much of a conclusive answer, not yet, but her hopes that they may lend a hand at some point are high. She explained the situation and possible benefits to those high-class demons quite clearly. She's confident that she was quite convincing. However...as far as she knows, she was the only one to leave. The shadows hadn't accompanied her. She checked her own shadow on the ground over multiple times, but there wasn't a peep.<br/>...Tch, as if she really cared in the first place. They were Shadows. They couldn't really get ""stuck"" anywhere...not unless they were fighting against Lights.<br/>At any rate, Nimika has made her way into the forests of Shava, and down into the hideout of her sisters. She frowns a bit at them all.<br/>""No Nelodine, hm?"" Nimika sighs. ""Pity. That girl has so much potential locked under that timid casing of hers...if we could just get her to realize how futile it is to break away from her own creator as she's done, and how little it will really change anything...maybe we could get her back.""<br/>""That's what we were talking about, sister."" Natasha nods. ""The Master has been telling us to focus our efforts there while he thinks up something new for Sephie's group...he says he's close to finding something brilliant! Ooh, I can't wait!""<br/>""Nelodine is very gentle."" Noruani gets into the conversation. ""I mean, even <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> terrify that girl. She's so sensitive...I bet that with just a few mind games, we could have one of two outcomes.""<br/>""Two outcomes?"" Numirra yawns.<br/>""Well, yes. The first is that we could break her spirit, make her feel as if she's got no purpose with Sephie's group, and then rake her broken pieces back here to reassemble her into our wonderful sister once more."" Noruani grins. ""The second...well...is that we could break her spirit, make her feel as if she's got no purpose <span class=""bb-i"">anywhere</span>, and have her run off to go get killed by wildlife or herself.""<br/>""This is true...she's very fragile like that...though, I'd prefer it if we could rake her back in. The 6 witch sisters just wouldn't be good enough as a combined power without our #3..."" Nimika replies, leaning against the cave wall. ""I think mind games are definitely the way to go, I mean, they rarely aren't.....but, we need to utilize them just enough that we can get her back, and not so much that she runs off to go make herself disappear, so to speak.""<br/>""Well, you know the two to call for mind games and fearful illusions."" Natasha grins. ""Noru and I would be happy to carry out any orders from you, eldest sister...""<br/>""In that case...I think I know just where we should start."" Nimika gets an evil grin on her face, as do her other sisters, with the exception of the now-dozing Numirra.</font></div>"

He then turns to listen to what Meora has to say, his smile now on the borderline of sad and happy. ""Kayori and Mirui, is it? Well, it's a pleasure to meet you both. While those nicknames are nice, I think I'd rather call them by their given names."" He says to the gun-wielding neko. Then, hearing Ammi inquire about possibly remembering anything whenever he woke up in the room, he simply shook his head. ""I'm sorry, but all I remember is sensing her being right beside me in the bed, asleep. However, I do now what you're talking about now. I can sense the energy coming from her all the way from here.."" He responds. Next, hearing Felixter introduce Lucille, Michael quickly bows at the very sight of her, this being one way of him showing a deep respect to a person of a higher position than him. ""It's an honor to meet you, milady. I do hope I have not wronged you in any way and hope that you can forgive me for my actions prior to this."" He would give his opinion regarding Kiroketsu and Fedoraman's given mission, but right now, he does not wish to disrespect Lucille by moving without giving clearance to do so.</font></div>"

Should we?"" Clancy asks.<br/>""I think it'd be a big mistake if we didn't~!"" Amber giggles in reply. The shadows nod to each other, then look at Karl. ""We're going home to throw a party! And YOU should come with us!""<br/>The two of them don't wait for a reply, and use their shadowy claws to grab what looks like just a space in the air. Then they rip that space out of the air, creating a portal swirling with purple and black colors. Amber skips into it, and begins to fall straight down in a tunnel of swirling dark energy, laughing all the way. Clancy grab's Karl by the wrist and jumps in after her. All 3 of them land on a hill overlooking a different world: Shadowland. The grass is dark purple, and the sky is blood red with a silver moon. There are flowers in the grass, but they're blue and half-wilted. In the distance, the silhouette of what looks to be an extravagant carnival sits.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">Ammi nods understandingly at Michael. ""Oh, it's fine, dear. No harm done this time, and even if there had been, I'm not sure we could have really blamed you justly. When you go into 'berserk mode', as you put it, your mind is somewhere else entirely, and you can't truly understand what you used to anymore. I know from unfortunate experience...""<br/>""Ah, yes, it's nice to meet you too. We can always use more allies in this group, no matter what grade of 'crazy' they may or may not be."" Kayori smiles kindly at Michael, then scoots closer to Felixter. He notices this, but does nothing except chuckle a bit.<br/>""Yeah, it's nice to meet you! I like new people that are nice! Nice new friends are great!"" Mirui looks absolutely joyful, despite the fact that she just saw this same person pointing his sword at all of her other friends but a few minutes ago. Now, Mirui starts looking around, before leaning down to ask Kayori, ""Kayori, is there still gonna be a bubble-unicorn party in this floating bubble hotel? I want cake!""<br/>Kayori laughs, and pats the monster girl's head with her good hand. ""Well, I don't know about the party at the moment, but I'll try and see if I can't get you cake soon enough.""<br/>""Yay! Thank you, Kay-kay!"" Mirui claps her hands together and bounces a bit where she stands.<br/>Lucille is a bit surprised at Michael suddenly bowing before her, but she certainly doesn't find it unfitting or unpleasant. She chuckles. ""Oh, my dear, you do not have to bow before me. I am not the queen of a living kingdom anymore. Just the queen of my own slice of Hell. However, I very much appreciate the respect, young man. Nice to know that some men still have that. You haven't wronged me, as long as you don't wrong these Cat Demon children, their friends, or other innocent women and children. I value the happiness and lives of all of these things. Anyone I catch who doesn't...gets a visit from me or my hellions here in the night.""<br/>""For a protector of innocent women and children, you seem a little...frightening..."" Kayori murmurs.<br/>Meora smirks at the happy group, then turns back to Fedora-man, listening to what he has to say. She takes the parcel, and nods ""Hai. Don't worry, I've been to the Demon Highlands enough times to know my way around. I'd say the same about knowing what to expect too, but this time I won't be with Sephie-chan or Felixter-kun. It'll be...interesting. Guess we'll see if the Master has any interest in taking me without them there, eh? Tch, yeah. As if he could break me down. I'm not scared of that fluffy pink rat. I'm not scared of this Sochi guy, either.""<br/>""Be careful even still, Meora. The Master always has some kind of plan. He's always at least 5 steps ahead, it seems. If anything seems amiss when you're there, take extreme caution."" Felixter's tone becomes gravely serious. ""If you get captures, we'll certainly come after you, but I'd prefer if you tried to stay out of that sort of danger. Though...I understand how halfway-pointless this warning might be to you. I mean, you're my sister's best friend. Of course you're going to run head-on into the first sight of action and danger."" He smirks a bit.<br/>""Ne! Gimme so credit here! I know how to take care of myself in these situations. Seems like you keep forgetting who saves all 18 of your lives of a certain pair of cat demon twins in that one war, Felixter-kun."" Meora snickers.<br/>""True...just...take care, then."" Felixter nods with more of a smile.<br/>""If you need any help, feel no shame whatsoever in calling us. Especially me. I'll come right away. After all, I do see you as one of my children."" Ammi beams warmly at the neko girl, then turns back to Michael. ""The same goes for you. Even though you're not a child, you're still an ally and friend.""<br/>""Ne, matte. There's still one thing I wanna ask before I get going here."" Meora has already walked up to the portal's entrance, eager to go and get this Sochi person, as well as maybe give the Master a piece of her mind, should the chance arise. ""Are you all gonna be able to handle Sephie-chan up there okay? I can hear her yelling and banging on walls from down here. Is that Murasaki-baka Kiroketsu-kun going to be able to do anything? Will you all survive without me here to handle Sephie-chan? Daijobudesuka?""<br/>""Meora, should the worst happen, I'm sure we can pull through and deal with it in your absence. You're a very important friend to Sephie, so we know how uneasy you are about leaving her like this, but you can trust us. Just go and kick some demon butt, okay?"" Ammi grins.<br/>Meora takes on a determined grin of her own. ""Hai, arigatou, Ammi-sama. Right then. I'm off. Sayonara!"" And with that, she takes the parcel she's been given, and leaps into the portal provided by Fedora-man.</font><br/><font color=""#8882be"">Meanwhile, upstairs, Meora was completely right about Sephie. She's still shouting random, incoherent phrases and broken sentences in her own native demon language, while Kiroketsu stands speechless outside of the door, wondering just what he should do now.<br/>""Man...I really just wanna say 'screw this' and go back down to hang out with Mirui...but Meora, Ammi, and Kayori are down there. They'll beat me into a pulp if I go back down there without results!"" He whines. Suddenly, he screams and jumps, almost hitting his head on the ceiling when a set of enlarged claws stabs through the magically-locked door. Kiroketsu's eyes widen.<br/>""OH. THOSE ARE RESULTS. NOT GOOD ONES, BUT RESULTS."" Kiroketsu backs up. The claws yank themselves out, then stab again, trying to tear through the door.<br/>""RUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUNRUN!"" Kiroketsu flees right away to go warn the others, instead of staying and monitoring the crazed, now enraged demon girl. Possibly a bad move.</font></div>"

She then hears a voice speak to her. “I’m going to help the others take care of Sephie and my daughter. In the meantime, this crow will be my second pair of eyes. In addition, as you may have already realized, I’ve taken the liberty of sharing a portion of my power with you. I trust that since you’re a friend of my daughter and I, you’ll use it wisely on the battlefield. If you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some business to take care of..” With that last line being said both telepathically and aloud to those that are currently with him, the voice fades as the real Michael turns around to make his way back towards the locked door. “Oh, Felixter, do you mind accompanying me?

Before she can even take one of her many guns off of her holster, though, she witnesses the toy bear grow to the size of an actual bear, and then pull out a gun, which then proceeds to transform as well, from a toy into a lethal weapon. A smirk makes it’s way across her face.<br/>“...I’ll admit it. That was pretty awesome just now.” Meora chuckles. She opens her mouth to give an explanation, but Joe beats her to the punch. Then suddenly there’s a Dwarf walking towards them from out of some bushes (and Meora finds herself wondering what he was doing there in the first place...ugh. Kiroketsu really IS a bad influence), who Joe and this big teddy bear, apparently named Zed, seem to know. On top of that, the Dwarf’s name appears to be Snarfulblast. Not the weirdest name Meora’s known...but up there, somewhere.<br/>Meora waits for Michael to show up, hoping for just the smallest bit of sense to be made somewhere, but instead a crow flies out from the portal and lands on her shoulder, which again, nearly makes the wary neko reach for her guns. However, Meora notices how much more powerful she feels with the crow on her shoulder, and then hears Michael’s disembodied voice, explaining the situation. She nods slowly once everything has been said.<br/>“Hai….okay then....just, as long as this thing won’t peck my face or poop on my shoulder. Guh, I remember one of the other assassins at the Japanese base I trained in had a parrot. Kami-sama, was it annoying...so, then I ate it. The guy never found out either, but everyone knew it was me. I was thanked for at least a week.” Meora cackles a bit. She starts following Snarfulblast, along with the others, and then turns to listen to Zed.<br/>“Ah, well...if we assume this Sochi guy to be one of the Master’s underlings, he’ll be in the rich part of town. The Demon Highlands have only a few significant features. The slums make up most of it. Then there’s the rich neighborhood surrounding the castle, and the Demon Square is the center of the place, leading to any part you would wanna go. Oh, yeah, and then there are some smutty clubs sprinkled around, some clinics that provide drug dealers with what they need, underground societies of every kind of horrible criminal imaginable, and back alleys. Lots and lots of back alleys. You don’t go into those. Well, at least, you don’t go into those with the intention of walking back out just fine and dandy.” Meora explains. “So, my suggestion is to head for the square, as Sephie and I always do when we have to venture through that place. Might be able to ask around for Sochi. Who knows? Maybe he could have a connection to some of the people I know who live in the Demon Highlands. Not in a friendly sense, though. The only people I know here are just Seph’s enemies.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">The group of friends in the lobby stand by as Michael sends a feathery replacement to head off on the mission with Meora and the others. The noise upstairs from Sephie’s rampage has grown worse in the meantime.<br/>Felixter’s ears perk up upon being called by name. He nods in agreement. “Right, Michael. To be honest, I’d have probably accompanied you either way, at this rate…”<br/>Felixter starts to follow Michael to the room where his sister is, but at that moment, the pair are almost run into by screaming purple blur. It comes to a halt in front of them, and Felixter sighs a bit at the sight of the fleeing spirit guardian.<br/>“O-oh! H-h-heyyyyy there, guys! What’s up?” Kiroketsu calms himself down a bit and tries his best to play it cool. Unsurprisingly, Felixter isn’t buying it in the least.<br/>“Oh, well, it appears that we were just going on our way to do your job, Kiro.” Felixter responds.<br/>“Gyah! I-I didn’t expect such coldness from YOU!” Kiroketsu almost flinches at the remark. He clears his throat, “Look, I have been doing my job! I mean, besides you, I’m one of the most experienced when it comes to handling Sephie in this state. Everything is under control, thanks to me-”<br/>Kiroketsu is cut off with his own startled squeak when more demon gibberish is shouted from the upper floor, followed by the sounds of what is surely a wall getting smashed…<br/>“....Right. Well, we’ll be off then. Perhaps you should stay here.” Felixter starts to move past Kiroketsu, but the stubborn spirit just follows him.<br/>“No! I won’t let you show me up in front of my beloved Sephie! No way am I letting you leave me behind!” Kiroketsu huffs.<br/>“...See, the only reason you’re acting tough now is because you’re not alone. Now there are other people who are on their way to confront my sister. Others you can fall back on in case you should fail. Sorry, Kiroketsu, but you aren’t Marko. You’ve got no bravery.” Felixter shakes his head with a chuckle.<br/>“D-don’t compare me to that other spirit guardian! That...that poser!” Kiroketsu cries, seeming quite offended. “Why do you guys prefer him to me so much, anyway?! Besides, he’s not even here!”<br/>“Well, we were unsure about leaving Silversa and Marko alone, so they might be coming here as well. Though, now that the witches are her instead, I’m not so sure.” Felixter shrugs. “And we prefer him to you because he’s a gentleman, and is actually devoted to his job. It’s as simple as that.”<br/>From the lobby, the rest of the people there listen in on the conversation between Kiroketsu and Felixter.<br/>“...Tch. I expected no less. Such a foul spirit, that Kiroketsu…” Lucille growls under her breath.<br/>“Do you think they’ll be okay…?” Ammi murmurs with concern.<br/>“Oh yeah. Michael and Felixter are there. With them there, it’ll be fine.” Kayori laughs.<br/>“What about purple-kitty-man- Er, uhm, Kiro?” Mirui asks.<br/>“...Felixter and Michael are there. With them there, it’ll be fine.” Kayori answers.</font><br/><font color=""#8493ca"">Nelodine, all the while, is still wandering some of the upper floor halls. In the distance, she can hear Sephie’s mad roars, but tries not to pay it any mind with the hopes that she’s securely trapped within that magically-locked room. She looks back down at the marble-sized, saddening milky-white orb that Nymne gave to her before fleeing from a window.<br/>“...8...she said there were 8 of us...but, there’s only 6, right? Then...did he create more?” Nelodine murmurs to herself.<br/>Before she can get much more into her thoughts, she hears a light tap on one of the windows near her.<br/>“Nelodine! Nelodine, out here!”<br/>“Hm?” Nelodine recognizes the voice as a little cat demon named Kieru, Sephie’s niece. She walks over to the window, but can’t see any sign of the little girl. She opens it and looks around outside, craning her neck this way and that to try and spot Kieru.<br/>“Kieru? Is that you? For goodness sake...I-I thought we told you to stay home! The witches are already here, s-so it’s not safe!” Nelodine calls out of the window.<br/>“But, Nelodine, you let Cloudy and her brothers come! And they’re younger than me!” Kieru’s disembodied voice whines at Nelodine, and all the while, something starts crawling through the window. A tiny little creature with fangs and claws, glowing with magic energy…<br/>“That was for a specific reason...C-Cloudy and her brothers were in the heavens beforehand, and from there, they were able to see what was going on earlier, so they knew how to help the others. We had to take them here. Ohh...Kieru, please, I don’t know if Sephie would be happy for you to be here if she were of sound mind right now…” Nelodine continues with her explanation to the girl she assumes is there with her. The little creature she still fails to notice is on the windowsill, creeping closer.<br/>“Oh? Sephie’s not of sound mind? Heh...then this’ll be even easier…<span class=""bb-i"">sister</span>.”<br/>Nelodine is taken aback when the voice suddenly becomes that of her youngest sister, Noruani. Before she can ask, the creature on the windowsill lunges at her, and latches onto her throat. Nelodine stifles a horrified, pained gasp when it slices right into her throat, and crawls in. On the way, the creature severs her vocal chords, so she cannot scream. Nelodine feels as if she’s about to fall unconscious, and maybe die...but then, her vocal chords and throat heal themselves up. She feels strange, and has a weird sparking feeling inside of her body, but for the most part...relatively okay. Though, she had no recollection of what had just happened, or why she came close to collapsing just now.<br/>Outside, the smallest of the witch sisters walked back towards the dark forests, giggling to herself as she recalled the instructions given by Nimika earlier, concerning Nelodine.<br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ec008c"">”What we’ll do, dear sisters, is relatively simple. It’s something we could only do so well by combining our powers.” Nimika began with a smirk.<br/>“Ahhh, of course! I mean, there’s 6 of us for a reason….we’re powerful on our own, but together, we’re absolutely deadly…” Natasha’s own evil grin had stayed strong. “I already love this, and I haven’t even heard the idea yet, sister!”<br/>“Well, I shall explain, then.” Nimika nodded. “As Noruani told us, Nelodine is sensitive and very fragile in her regular, conscious state of mind. But...what if we were to subconsciously alter this a bit? Maybe...control her, a little?”<br/>“Control her…?” Numirra yawned.<br/>“Now I’m extremely interested.” Noruani got a glint to her own eye. “Of course...being me, I think I know where this is going…”<br/>“Yes, Noru. We’re going to combine our powers and create...something similar to a chip or a device. Except, it’ll be organic; a creature. When it latches onto her, she won’t remember that it’s there. Not even when it’s activated.” Nimika snickered. “See, Noruani was right. There’s a gentle balance between Nelodine thinking she’s useless, but could still come back to us...or thinking that she’s useless, and getting rid of herself completely. So, we have to gently ease her our way by controlling her through this...let’s call it a ‘Magic Bug’. Now, the easiest thing would be to just have her immediately turn on her ‘friends’ with this power over her...but that’d be too suspicious. No, we have to take it little by little. Noruani will be in control of the Magic Bug, and thus, will also be able to know what’s going on with our dear, lost sister at any point in time. Noruani will be our observer, and depending on what she sees, she, as well as the rest of us, will command what Nelodine should do at certain points. It’ll be like flipping a switch. We’ll make her act...’differently’ towards her friends. This way, we can cause a natural turn in her behavior and thoughts, as well as those around her.”<br/>“That’s brilliant!” Natasha broke into a joyous cackle.<br/>“Right then. Don’t you worry about a thing. Make the bug, and I’ll find a way to get it to Nelodine.” Noruani agreed with glee.</font></span><br/>“Ehehehehe~! All according to plan...now the real fun can begin…” Noruani continues to giggle creepily in the dark of the forest, near the witch’s hideout...</font><br/><br/>“Oooh! Me next, ME NEXT!” Clancy cries, shapeshifts into a tire with a face, and then rolls down the hill after Karl.<br/>“Wait for MEEEEEEEE!” Amber shouts, shapeshifting into a huge spiked rolling pin as she rolls down the hill with them.<br/>Upon reaching the bottom, the two shadows flip into the air, transform back into their default forms, and land on their feet, hand in hand.<br/>“Ta-daaaa~!” Amber sings.<br/>“Right! So, what do ya wanna do first?! We could go to the shadow petting zoo-” Clancy starts.<br/>“-Where ALL the animals have 5 rows of sharp fangs! Even the baby deer!” Amber interjects.<br/>“-Or we could go straight to the carnival, which is pretty much the main part of this whole world!” Clancy continues. “And after we’re done in Shadowland, we can move over to it’s extension, Caria!

Hurry and take her down!” The tactician orders, not sure how long he’ll be able to keep the barrier going since he gave Meora a portion of his power earlier.<br/><br/>“Damn...I almost forgot just how strong Sephie can be…” The crow says to Meora, it shivering slightly as if a chill had run up its spine. Despite this remark, Meora doesn’t sense any sort of change in the portion of power that was given to her, allowing her to believe that he’s currently holding his own at the moment.</font></div>"
5963,Portal Hoppers  *REMAKE*,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76029-portal-hoppers-remake,"['Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Free']",2015-07-31 03:07:00,SephietheEvil,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/shadowventus"">@ShadowVentus</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/snarfulblast"">@Snarfulblast</a><br/><br/>Amber and Clancy both grin wide at Karl’s suggestion, clapping happily.<br/>“Whoa! A true visionary, this one!” Clancy comments to Amber.<br/>“I know! I wish we could help him! I mean, if he was a shadow like us, he COULD make clones of himself to literally go both places at once!” Amber replies back.<br/>“You think we should turn him right now, then?” Clancy blinks.<br/>“Hmm...weeelllll, I’ve got absolutely no reason to doubt his potential for the role! Maybe we could bring him before Queen Shadowelle first? Or bring him after we turn him? Guess it doesn’t matter- if we approve of this guy, then she DEFINITELY will!” Amber giggles back, and both shadows then run to go catch up with Karl.<br/>“CARNIVAL IT IS, THEN! FOR NOW!” Clancy cheers, skipping merrily along, suddenly wearing a shadow hood and carrying a shadow basket with him.<br/>“This’ll be AWESOME!” Amber bounces along, suddenly having a rabbit headband and huge rabbit feet on.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">“Kilt and Beard Tavern, eh…? Interesting name.” Meora nods in light approval as she follows everyone else into the tavern. She’s a bit unnerved by the presence of more new people, and nearly pulls her gun out on the angel when she runs for Zed, her assassin instincts telling her it’s an attack, but she quickly realizes otherwise when the demon girl steps forward to introduce herself and the angel. Meora is also quite entertained by the way Kylie explains everyone’s roles in Fedora-Man’s life.<br/>“Nice...I see you guys got a pretty solid group of allies together then. And almost just as weird as my own best friend’s group.” Meora snickers a bit in response to Kylie’s words. “I’m Meora, best friends with a cat demon girl named Sephie, and ally to her twin bro, and all of their friends. I was trained as an assassin for 4 years in the Demon Highlands, and 5 years in Tokyo. I speak Japanese, English obviously, and also whatever language comes from that place.” Meora jerks her thumb in the direction of outside, towards the Demon Highlands. Her ears perk up when she hears the crow on her shoulder talk again. She smirks a bit at what Michael tells her.<br/>“Well, yeah! It’s Seph, one of the most awesome people I know, if not THE most awesome. Just lemme know if you need this power share of yours back to handle her. Y’know, in emergencies, I CAN handle my own for a bit. Even if things get pretty bad down in demon town.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">“H-huh…?” Nelodine blinks, hearing Lucas and watching him back away from her, as if something was wrong. Did something just happen? She feels like maybe something did, but can’t think of anything relating to the subject. Hearing the voices of her friends down in the lobby, Nelodine decides to just rejoin the group down there instead.<br/>“Hey, guys! What’s going on?” Nelodine tries to push her uncertain thoughts back as she greets her friends.<br/>“Meora left on her mission, and Michael took Felixter, and apparently Kiro, to go try and fix Sephie up.” Kayori explains. “Everything alright with you, Nelodine? You were up there awhile.”<br/>“Y-yeah! Yeah! I feel fine. Just some...minor things.” Nelodine opens her palm back up to stare at the milky white orb. She remembers this being given to her by Nymne, and the haunting words about it she left behind, but Nelodine can’t help but feel as though something happened after that. Like a gap in her brain. She tries to shake it off as she turns her full attention back to those in the lobby at this time.<br/>“So, do you think they’ll need help up there? I can try and use some magic…” Nelodine asks.<br/>“No, dear, I think it’s best if you stay down here with us. Should anything happen, I’ll gladly volunteer myself to go up. I have the power to hold her off, and I can’t really be killed.” Ammi smiles in a caring way towards Nelodine, who nods and smiles timidly back.</font><br/><font color=""#92278f"">Kiroketsu and Felixter decide to quiet down in response to Michael, glaring at each other before following him up to the door. Kiroketsu and Felixter both get into prepared positions as they watch Michael unlock the door, Felixter looking more composed, and Kiroketsu looking more and more fake by the minute. However, once the door is open, Kiroketsu shoves Felixter out of the way and dives in first. He aims to tackle Sephie down, but he flies past and hits the scratched wall behind her, only soliciting a bit of attention from her. She whips back to face the doorway and tries to go for the escape, screeching bloody promises of violence as she does, until the barrier stops her. Felixter slips in and steps fearlessly in front of his rampaging sister. <br/>“Sephie, I need you to stop. Calm down.” Felixter locks eyes with his twin, and Sephie seems to pause for a moment before trying to attack him. Felixter dodges out of the way quickly. Kiroketsu shakes himself off and places himself next to Felixter.<br/>“What do we do now?! Knock her out? I mean, I could do that, but it seems so ungentlemanly….she’ll probably remember it and hit me for it later, too.” Kiroketsu murmurs.<br/>“Is that really what you’re worried about?!” Felixter huffs in annoyance at the spirit, all the while engaging his hellion form to act quicker and provide more strength to fend off his sister.<br/>“Boys, boys, there’s no need for any of that…..”<br/>Kiroketsu and Felixter are both startled by the presence of Lucille, who now stands between them and the ravenous Sephie, only holding the girl back with a single red-gloved hand.<br/>“OH GOD IT’S THE EVIL SHE-WITCH-QUEEN FROM HELL!” Kiroketsu cries, trying to hide behind Felixter even though he’s nearly twice the boy’s height.<br/>Felixter rolls his eyes, then looks up at Lucille. “Were you here the whole time? I swear I just now heard you from the lobby…..”<br/>“Oh no. I came up here for a few reasons. I thought you’d need help, I learned of some new news, and I figured you’d like to hear a...deal I have for you.” Lucille starts to grin.<br/>Felixter already didn’t like the tone that came with the mention of this…”deal”....but he figures he should hear her out anyway. “Right then...what do you want? What have you learned?”<br/>“I know a way to get Sephie back the other portion of her soul. You know, part of the reason she can’t handle her own powers and is so unstable is because she’s still missing half of her soul, as I’ve explained before. So, I’ve finally found a brilliant way to fix it, that might help us all in more ways than one if it works!” Lucille explains. “You have to do something for me to be able to do it now, though. This might be the most perfect chance we have, because she’d hold no malice towards you if you did it now….”<br/>“Do what now…?” Felixter narrows his eye.<br/>“For me to take her down into the afterlife and get her the soul, I need you to kill her. Nothing big. It doesn’t have to be all 9 lives at once or anything. Just stab her in the heart or something quick and easy like that.” Lucille replies.<br/>“SAY WHAT?! Felixter, no! You can’t! S-she’s your sister, man! And more importan- er, I mean, as a less important side note, you’ll be killing ME too, and then I’ll have to be down there with Lucille! Y-you can’t do that to me, man!” Kiroketsu begs.<br/>Felixter, while ignoring Kiroketsu entirely, thinks over the deal. He glances from his crazed, insane sister, to Lucille’s almost deceptively pleasant smile.<br/>“She would be normal after this….?” Felixter sighs.<br/>“Felixter!” Kiroketsu shouts.<br/>“More in control than she is now.” Lucille purrs back. “Side effects might vary, but they would do that anyway with any soul we got.”<br/>“.....Fine.” Felixter gets out his claws.<br/>“FELIXTER!” Kiroketsu raises his voice in desperation. He tries to stop Felixter, but Lucille lets go of Sephie, and now turns to hold Kiroketsu back. Sephie immediately lunges for Felixter, but with his long claws, all he must do is hold out his paw, and his sister is impaled in the heart from her own force. Felixter takes great care in removing his claws from his sister, as he doesn’t want to rip out her heart and instantly kill all 9 of her lives. Or, whatever number she has left. 7 or 6, possibly, by now.<br/>“Thank you, Felixter, my precious little cat demon child. The other precious little cat demon child shall be taken care of. And I believe the result will be beneficial for everyone….” Lucille picks up Sephie’s body as a wispy black portal opens at the back of the room. Kiroketsu is already fading in color.<br/>“Nooooooo…..” Kiroketsu whines, flopping onto the floor.<br/>“So...who is this soul donor, anyway?” Felixter would’ve asked this earlier, but he realizes that Lucille probably wouldn’t have told him then, and probably wouldn’t right now either.<br/>“If I told you, you wouldn’t let me do it. But honestly, it’ll work out one way or another. You just have to trust me.” Lucille gently sets Sephie down on the floor next to the portal, and then turns around to step towards Kiro. She grabs him by the tail and tosses the screaming 10-foot monster spirit guardian into the portal behind her as if he weighed no more than a plush doll. Which, as a spirit, he probably did weigh no more than that.<br/>“...Right. I figured I wouldn’t get a clear answer.” Felixter frowns a bit.<br/>“Worry not, my dear. If all works out as I expect, you’ll love me by the end of this.” Lucille pats his head, then scoops Sephie back up, and leaves through the portal.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#f49ac2"">Lucille walks back into her home territory, Hell, with Sephie soundly unconscious in her arms. Kiroketsu lies on the hot red ground in front of her, his color returning.<br/>“Uggghhhhh………..whyyyyyyyyyy…..” He groans.<br/>“Come along then, Kiroketsu. Sephie should wake up soon, and we must make haste, lest our chance slips away from us.” Lucille says in a friendly tone, even humming as she walks past him towards the darker recesses of the eternal torture prison.<br/>“Where...w-where are you taking her?!” Kiroketsu scrambles to get himself up, his duties as a guardian becoming much more evident to him now suddenly.<br/>“Towards the person who will give her half of their soul. Or, rather, the creature….” As Lucille leads him forward, Kiroketsu can’t help but notice how dark and distorted it’s starting to get around them.<br/>“It’s a good thing my eyes glow in the dark, man….” Kiroketsu whimpers.<br/>“Hush, we’re almost there.” Lucille is still humming as they approach a soft red glow from further ahead. When they finally stop, Kiroketsu recoils in horror at the thing in front of them. Some kind of weird, transparent, fleshy chamber in the middle of a dark, dark room. The dark, illuminated by the reddish glow from the thing, reveals more of the details of it, like the veins pumping...something into the heart-like chamber, and holding it in place from all sides.<br/>“Oh god, what the hell is this?!” Kiroketsu gags a little.<br/>“The holding place of an old familiar figure of yours, who’s about to be released onto the world once more…” Lucille steps closer to it with Sephie.<br/>From inside of the thing, something swims closer to the transparent walls, to get a good look at the group in front of it. Kiroketsu’s eyes widen in horror. The tiny figure, pink fur, black cape and boots, the tall ivory horns, one being crooked at the top...and those black and red eyes. No doubt about it, it’s-<br/>“Well, well…..hello there, Lucille. Come to taunt me more about the fact that you trapped me down here for so long? It’s been over a year…” The Master sneers.<br/>“No. I have something different in mind.” Lucille grins maliciously at the demon lord. “Something to weaken you before you break out this time.”<br/>“Nng….wha…?” Sephie opens her eyes a bit, looking around in a tired, dazed fashion.</font></div>"

#3: NO, I repeat NO, creating anything that ruins anyone else's fun. (Unless you're Sephie because, then she couldn't use her characters)  
#4: No vulgar language, please. If it's really necessary, then you could just come up with your own (Ex: ""MUFFIN FLUFFER!"")
#5: Characters should be made using the CS Skeleton posted up (It helps other players get a better idea of your character)

The world this all takes place in is known as Shava. Contained within this world are portals to a plethora of different dimensions. Our guide and narrator in this world is a being known as Fedora-man, who may be summoned at will through the process of burning both an icy wing from a frost bat and the fang of a timber wolf. Periodically, he will send everyone on missions, so it's best to be wary at most times. Don't spend too long settling in, for it may not be too long before a mission is handed down to you.
Remember: teamwork is key.</font></div>"

I'm sorry, but I'm calling BS on that stunt you just pulled. My reasoning for this is because you neglected to mention in your CS for ""The Tortured"" that it had the ability to change its properties to the point where it can no longer be affected by spells or attacks that involve ice/frost. Also, the fact that it changed its color to a light red is nothing but a contradiction, for one would then assume it would now be weak to fire-based attacks/spells. However, that's clearly not the case considering in the CS, you said that this giant wooden manikin is immune to fire. Personally, I can't even tell anymore if this thing is a wooden manikin or it is a giant lumbering machine disguised as one.</div>"

Player Name: The New Yorker

Character Name: Remy LeBeau

Moral Alignment: Walking the Line

Affiliation: The Thieves Guild, CIA, NSA

Character Origin &amp; Backstory:

Remy’s mother worked in a restaurant in Back of Town, New Orleans as a waitress. She had her ass slapped more times than she could remember, but that Cajun kid with the darling eyes was the only one she never slapped back. They got married, had a little red-eyed child, and everything went downhill from there. That Cajun kid with the darling eyes couldn’t stand that he was a big nothing in the middle of nowhere, ball and chained in the swamps as a mechanist. He drank, and he smoked, and he got high; then he’d slap that little waitress everywhere but her ass. The kid (Remy) got to sleep on the porch under the awning if it was raining and his mother would make sure he got food every once in a while even. But that damn kid was so rowdy as a toddler that his papa had taken to chaining him up to the front porch. If his dad wanted to come out and have a beer or something, Remy would have to get off the patio or risk getting a licking. 


At night, when his papa was done screaming, and hitting, and drinking, and he’d fallen asleep, Remy would sneak out of his chains and collar. He used the paper from his papa’s matchbook, which he molded into a fine picking device, to open all the locks that were thought to keep him chained. He’d run off into the vibrant New Orleans streets and just bask in it all: the people, the lights, and the smells. The puffed, pungent smells of gumbo wafting from street-side diners mingled in Remy’s nose with the sweet, buttery smell of fried choux paste. He’d sit at a bench, where he met several other children, all seemingly street urchins, and watch them perform tricks. The group of children were like a traveling band of street performers, yet not an adult among them. Remy met them every so often, he learned tricks and skills which he’d commit to memory. None of the children made fun of him, the way everyone at home did. They didn’t seem to mind that his eyes were different, they didn’t seem to instantly despise him. Then, after the children had played, and some had earned a little bit of money, they’d separate. Remy would shuffle back from the city and walk the dark, dusty road to his country house. He’d quietly put the chains back on and sleep on the cushioned mat his mother had made for him. Then he’d dream, the kinds of dreams where it was only him and his mom. The kinds where he got to sleep inside and talk to people without getting hit. He knew that this dream would come true, he’d just need to be strong for his momma, she’d come through. 


Remy’s mother ran off when he was 8, left him shivering on the porch with the looming shadow grasping at her heels with every step. It didn’t take Remy long after that to realize that the next time he snuck out, he wouldn’t be coming back. Remy joined the gang of street urchins instantly, feeling finally free. He learned that the group was actually led by someone older, a teenage acolyte of the Thieves Guild. The gang was a way to breed new promising members, Remy was instantly recognized as an impressive force. One day, at the ripe age of 12, Remy was following a mark, a juicy one at that. He snagged the man’s billfold while the man was picking up a paper, then slid into an alley way. He counted the bills under the florescent lamp light, but was stunned to find a note, stuck in the middle of it. Two red eyes drawn in the center of the piece of paper floated above the words, “Come Meet Mr. LeBeau”. Remy had no idea how important that name would become to him. The invitation was to meet the leader of the Thieves Guild, who had been awaiting the prophesized diable blanc to show his face, or his eyes in Remy’s case. The prophesy foretold of a young thief with red eyes and pale skin who would reunite the two warring guilds, that of the Thieves and the Assassins. 


So Remy agreed. Soon he began showing signs of mutant abilities, which pleased Jean-Luc LeBeau greatly. He adopted the boy and taught him all of his tricks, the tricks of a master thief. Remy grasped the ideologies of the guild very easily, it was easy to accept a family when he’d never truly had one. He even agreed to the arranged marriage between himself and Bella Donna Boudreaux, the granddaughter of the head of the Guild of Assassins; not as if he would have any reason to deny the southern beauty. The wedding day, in order to completely understate it, was destroyed by the intervention of Bella’s brother Julien. He challenged Remy to a duel, saying that he would not have some glorified sewer rat marrying his sister. Remy, in self-defense and through pure ignorance, obliterated Julien. The Assassin’s attacked first, of that Remy is sure. Everything after was a bit blurry. When Remy awoke on the crimson painted rooftop the wedding was taking place on, he was horrified. He was covered in blood, as was everyone and everything else around. A bloodbath had occurred and there were very few survivors. Remy was lucky enough to limp away with several broken bones and a very bad bullet wound. 


It wasn’t long until Remy was out of the south, he traveled to New York in search of some work. In search of a life away from the sweet scented swamps which brought only bad memories. He was quick to find Fence, a half robotic man who dealt in stolen goods. Remy was a talented 19 year old as far as Fence could see, so he put him to work. Remy was hitting museums and laboratories in no time. The Guild had him stealing jewels and paintings, Fence had him hunting blueprints and scientific do-dads. Soon Remy got word that the CIA was on his trail, and the NSA, too. Knowing that hiding was more of a death sentence than the alternative, Remy gave himself up to the agency.


They knew all about le diable blanc, had a fat ass stack of files and everything. They asked him to cooperate with them, help them help him. Nothing made Remy more uncomfortable than working with the government, but what could he do? They had information on his life on the streets, his life in the Guild, and his involvement in the massacre. They could pin the whole thing on him if they wanted, him being a mutant. So he played along. He got them plans, and planted bugs and did some field work for the NSA every once in a while. He interrogated some prisoners, planted a couple of bombs, and dealt with a little insurrection. No biggie. They kept him fed, housed, hidden, and happy. Besides, it allowed him access to some high priority places, which made Fence pretty happy. Though not too happy, since Fence was furious that Remy was in so deep with the government. That was a big no-no for thieves. Remy didn’t mind until he got the word of his next assignment. He was to join up with a top secret team, created with people just like him. The assignment was concerning insurrection, terrorists. It outlined plans for attacks on whole communities of mutants. Once he heard about that he called Fence immediately, they’d need a plan to make Remy disappear. 


Powers and Abilities:


-	Psychokinetic manipulation of energy. Remy is capable of changing items on a molecular level, invigorating the cells of any non-living organism to an instable level. This generally leads to an explosion, proportionate to the size of the object and its level of instability. Currently his powers are reliant upon Remy touching things. Remy isn’t quite sure what the limits of his powers are concerning size, so he’ll have to keep practicing. 
-	Heightened athletic skill. Remy has learned how to effect his own kinetic energy. Making him faster, more balanced, and all around more confident in his movements. 
-	Psychokinetic mental barrier. Remy possess an amazing gift which he has no control over and hardly understands. His mind is mostly untouchable to telepaths. 
-	 Charm. Remy has an irresistible charm. It’s origins are a mixture of his time as a thief, a secret agent, and an inherent likability. It is yet unclear whether his powers have anything to do with it. 
-	Master Thief…


Weaknesses: 

-Paranoid: Remy’s time with the government, and his subsequent departure, have etched a foul distrust in him.
-Embarrassment/Sullied reputation: Remy ran after most of the Theives and Assassins guild had killed each other. That in itself is enough to damn his name in some parts of the south. Working for the government as a weapon was only icing on the cake. 
Easily distracted: If Remy needs to stay focused, he can. Especially when there are NATO rounds flying over his head. However, when things are a little lighter, Remy can get confident, and that confidence manifests itself most readily as flirtation or comedy. It hasn’t bitten him in the ass yet, but he still has a long way to go. 


Sample Story Archs: 

-The fugitive: Remy works with Fence in order to get the CIA off of his back. He must infiltrate Trask industries to sabotage prototype mutant killers (sentinels), and find info on the CIA by accessing the Trask industries mainframe. 
-The Marauders: Having only stalled Trask’s eventual goal of building his Sentinels Remy decides he must intervene in a secret attack on the Mutants of the New York city sewers, the Morlocks. Here he meets members of the X-Men. 
-Thief No More: Remy joins the X-Men in order to put a stop to the draconian Magneto and his Brotherhood. 
A Thieves End: If we make it this far, Remy will leave the X-Men after a tragic loss and try his hand at Thieving again. Perhaps, for the very last time.

Remy’s boots squeaked against the polished ivory floor as he darted down the plain white hallway. As he rounded a corner out of the hallway, a platoon of guards rounded a corner on the other end into the hallway. They shot at him for a few moments before he was out of sight, and then followed after him. The Cajun’s blood was warm as he felt the thrill of the chase once again. Sure, the idea of being a thief is that you shouldn’t even be seen, but the blood boiling excitement of being chased was something Remy could never get over. It would be absurd to assume that Remy had <span class=""bb-i"">let</span> the guards see him, because an assumption of that caliber would also assume that Remy was unprofessional. Of course, that wasn’t true, because Remy was, indeed, a staunch professional. 


He giggled as he sped down the hallway, briefcase filled with precious information hoisted over his shoulder. He was nearing a reception area and an eventual exit. He rounded the corner and spotted a quiet brunette, shell shocked, with a phone pressed to her ear. Remy slowed his sprint into a run then a jog, and eventually a steady, easy walk. The cool Cajun rested his arms up on the reception desk and let himself breathe for a moment. He took the phone from the Brunettes hand and placed it back on the receiver. 
“You got a ball” he asked, his drawl dripping onto the desk, melting the young woman. 


“A… ball?” She looked down in her desk and noticed there was a ripe blue rubber ball, calling to her. She gave it to Remy and smiled. The Cajun charged the ball, allowed his red eyes to wallow in the putrid pink. The girl must have seen all the pain in his heart, all the years of running, and probably how much he’d just been running. She rested her hand on his free one, sighed deeply. This was most certainly the man she’d been waiting for. They’d go on really romantic dates and meet each other’s parents. He would cook her dinner sometimes and she’d give him massages. They’d get married and her mother would stop nagging about her going back to school, because she’d have a husband. Then maybe they’d have children, though they wouldn’t have to. She always wanted to adopt. He’d probably want to adopt, too.


Remy threw the ball into the hallway, winked, and dashed off. The ball exploded, dislodging cement structures around her, stunning the young brunette and waking her from her dream. A thick dust cloud rolled in from the mostly destroyed hallway and filled the reception area. The doe-eyed receptionist coughed in confusion as Remy  jumped from a window onto a nearby roof. 
It didn’t take long for Remy to reach the headquarters Fence ran out of his bakery in Brooklyn. He settled up with Fence, handed him the info, and took a seat with a cuppa at his side. 


“What do you think?” he asked with the cup hanging under his nose. 


“I don’t think much, Gambit.” Fence responded. His human arm was hairy, the other was a cool blue steel. He had a gruff voice which carried in it decades of coffee, and heartache, and lies. 


“Well give me something, damnit!” Remy responded with an exasperated yell. 


“Jesus, calm down, Remy. Drink some of your fucking coffee and give me a second.” Fence said cooly as he continued with his work. 


“I would be calm if you haven’t been treating me like an asshole for the last two weeks.”


“Please not now.”


“Well when Fence? I mean… Where the hell were you when I called you?”


“Guatemala. No Egypt.” 


Remy didn’t have to look at all the tiny cables attached to Fence to get the joke. He’d been resting right here, obviously. No more than a month ago Fence was pulled out of a club and beaten half to death by some men in black. They tried wiping his memory core. Luckily Fence was a lot better than them, and Remy. He stayed away from the Devil eyed thief for a few weeks while the heat on him wore off. It isn’t clear if he felt guilty or just obliged, but he contacted Remy a few days ago asking him to retrieve some information. The deal was simple: retrieve some intel and some tech, and Fence would try his best to help get the Cajun out of this mess with the CIA.


“I was stuck on top of a 65 story building with combat drones up my ass. I could have used your help.” Remy said, coyly chiding. 


“Well you seem fine. I was rebuilding what was left of my arm, so I was a little busy myself.” Fence responded without looking from the datapad. Remy nodded, allowed Fence to <span class=""bb-i"">have</span> this one. 


The big half metal man flipped through pages of info on a holoscreen he had displayed in front of him. His blue eye made note of every detail, his lips flicking as he tried to remember it all. 


“Well,” Remy said after calming down, “What it say?”
“It <span class=""bb-i"">say</span> you’ve been blacklisted. It <span class=""bb-i"">say</span> you a terrorist. And, as always, they called you a slut.”


September 5th, 2012
11:58 PM


“Here’s the problem, Remy, we’re dealing with the fucking government.” Fence stood on his powering station, a partially raised, circular dais with a bright blue light shining upward. Sprouting from his mechanized hand was a flat hologram which he read from intently. His eye was damaged in the beating he received a month ago on the Cajun’s behalf, he could not use it to project holograms or virtual reality HUD’s. The aforementioned Cajun was laid in a loveseat set between two marble columns. He still wore his sneaking suit and running shoes, his legs were innocently slung over the edge of the loveseat. The joe in his hands had cooled since he got there, and coincidentally, so had he. He took a sip of the brown stuff as his red eyes pierced through the light steam which rose from the cup. “If we were dealing with some kind of a street hustler, sure, easy-peesey. A mob-boss? Easy as the shit I pass off as cake here. But what I can’t do…”


“I thought you said there was nothing you can’t do.” Remy interrupted. He looked sly, and vicious, he wanted blood but he wasn’t ready to kill for it. Remy sometimes felt like that, like he was impotent, like he wasn’t a man of integrity. But what does a thief know about integrity?


Fence seemed annoyed by the suggestion Remy made, he stepped off the powering station and pointed his human, broken, hand at the devil in the darkness. “That was six years ago, before you started playing footsies with government organizations. And,” he added, continuing where he’d left off, “what I can’t do is hide you from every security agency in the United States, public, private, or, otherwise, deeply, deeply hidden.”


Remy’s eyebrows perked up, he was interested in the implications of Fence’s statement. Fence was particular, he was a man of practicality. He never said anything that didn’t need saying, unless he was hyping himself up. “What do you mean? There info in there about secret organizations, looking for me?” 


Fence calmed and got back to the station. He waved his hands behind him and flipped through the hologram. “Yeah, yeah,” he said, “Not explicitly, but yeah.” Fence made a throwing motion with his robotic arm toward the smart board which sat at the opposite end of the basement they were talking in. The walls were exposed stone and the floor was red cracked marble aside from the area around the powering station; that was metal tile. Remy assumed it was because there was some sort of defense mechanism around the station, Fence was paranoid like that. Fence had put a lot of money into this place, Remy was happy that when the spooks came around they couldn’t find this place too. Behind the smart board was a door, one of two. It led to a vault and more things beyond that which Remy wasn’t even entirely sure about. At the opposite end was another door which led to the elevator to the bakery. That end was stocked with tables, and tools, and computers, and weapons, and all sorts of do-dads. The document flicked onto the screen moments later. 


On the screen was a long document which included lots of codenames, and locations where Remy had been, and security business lingo. Fence circled all the names he brought up on the board from where he stood. “I’ve never heard of the Murauders. Or Project X. They must either be new or top secret. I’ve never had a non-doctored document like this.”


Remy made sure to let Fence know he was still worth something, “You’re welcome,” is all he said. 


“There’s also this Sentinel program, very troubling. It implies, whatever this project is, will be able to track down mutants.” Fence stopped as he read on, things he hadn’t yet differentiated from the lingo and backtalk around it. His organic eye widened as he began to understand it.  “They’re saying you were instrumental in making all of this possible.” Fence was a little dumbstruck. He turned to the red-eyed devil sitting in the love seat, cooing over a cup of coffee. “Did you do this, Remy?”


The Cajun sipped his coffee again. He felt a sudden chill crawl up his spine and he swallowed the coffee hard. His eyes unfocused and refocused again, and for a moment the Cajun felt like he was falling through the world. “I—I don’t know.”


“What do you mean you don’t know? Come on, Remy. I mean, Jesus Christ, don’t you know never to trust the fucking government?!?” He wanted an answer, the metal man stood on the station staring at Remy, every second the Cajun didn’t answer infuriated Fence. “Well!?!” He bellowed.


Remy was jolted from a daydream, “I—I didn’t know.” 


“Well now you know.” Fence stared at the thief, cradled by the cushions, and unraveled what he saw. Remy looked frightened, shocked, betrayed, and embarrassed; Fence could see that. He pursed his lips then exhaled, “I can help you, Remy, I think. It’s not a sure thing, by any means. But it has to be done my way.” Fence was clear, deliberate, forgiving. “My way or the highway.” He punctuated. 
Remy hadn’t been looking at Fence for a while, he stared at the cracked red floor and descended into a short burst of agony. With Fences last words Remy’s red eyes flicked over to the metal man’s blues. “Yeah,” he accepted weakly, “yeah, you got it, Boss.”


Concerning the Daydream: Remy was sent to China in 2008 to retrieve plans, and potentially materials, from a secret base in Karamay. Remy led a team of four. It was supposed to be easy, simple. After the rendezvous, which involved Remy boarding a train via helicopter, the team picked up their weapons in a storage crate outside the city, and headed to the base. They hadn’t killed any guards by the time they reached their destination. All four team-members had powers, similar to Remy. One young man could teleport, which came in handy. Another could read minds and the other possessed technokinesis, like Fence. It was the latter teammate who made this distinction between what the team was told they were to collect, and what they were actually collecting. He hijacked the database while Remy searched the storage bins for the marked materials. Remy found it, a green matte suitcase locked and sealed. He brought it over to a table and opened it, it looked like some sort of polymer. 


“They sent us out here for some damn plastics?” Remy commented. His hair was longer then, he had it wrapped in a ponytail. 


Gerald, the young man mentioned earlier, stood from the laptop he worked at and looked at the material. He waved his hands over the case and small lights flicked on inside the opaque material. He smiled as his hands hovered over the box. “There is no metal in them at all, but they’re electronic all right.” Gerald stopped manipulating the material and went back to his laptop. “You shouldn’t have opened that.” He said coyly. 


“And why’s that?” Remy questioned, he shut the case.


“I didn’t see anything, man.” Gerald responded. 


“Say what’s on your mind, Frtiz.”


Gerald hesitated a moment and then turned in his chair, he looked up at the Cajun and frowned. “That’s not what they told us we were getting. This is very serious, very scary shit.”
Gerald died on their way out of the base. The two other agents died in a freak fire in the west end no more than a week later. And the Cajun realized now that he was meant to die in that fire as well. Or perhaps the CIA got Gambit out of that room on purpose, to keep him. Either way, remembering that moment made Remy sure that he was a fool, and any work he’d done for the government was pure evil.</div></div></div>"

All that Peter could remember about his parents was that his father, Richard, was a geneticist and genetic engineer and that his mother, Mary, was a nurse. While Peter was still very young, his parents tragically died in a plane accident. Therefore, the burden fell upon Peter’s aunt and uncle, May and Benjamin Parker, who gave the young Peter all the love that they could. Even when the Parkers struggled to support their nephew financially, they gave the young Peter all the love they had. This was only the first tragedy in Peter’s guilt-ridden life.<br/><br/>Through elementary and middle school, Peter was belittled and bullied since Peter was a book-worm, nerd, and an ‘A’ student. Although his academic studies helped him through this time, thinking that someday he would be all the ‘popular’ kids’ boss, there almost did not seem like there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Not until he first met one of his future best friends: Angelica Jones. She and her widowed father, Bartholomew Jones, moved to Queens from Massachusetts after Angelica’s paternal grandmother passed away. Both being lonely and outcasts, Peter and Angelica quickly became friends. Things looked bright for Peter, or at least that how they seemed until Angelica’s microwave powers began to manifest. With the anti-mutant sentiment, Angelica’s father enrolled her at the <span class=""bb-i"">Xavier Institute of Higher Learning</span>. After a bitter and sad departure, Peter had lost his best friend almost as soon as they became friends.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Birth of Spider-Man"" type=""button"">The Birth of Spider-Man [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Then there was the day Peter gained his powers. Peter was attending a demonstration of the latest findings of Doctor Curtis Connors, an expert on cross-species genetics. During the demonstration, one of the genetically altered spiders escaped from its container on that faithful day and bit Peter, infecting him with a virus that caused Peter to develop his abilities. After suffering a miserable night due to his body trying to cope with the virus that had infected Peter, Peter woke up feeling like a new person.<br/><br/>Now with super-human powers, Peter knew what he had to do with them: earn money for his loving aunt and uncle, who had struggled to support him. It was the least he could do. While Peter was successful early on, having created his ‘iconic’ red and blue costume to conceal his identity, Peter’s cash supply was destroyed by a man who would be a pain in Spider-Man’s backside for years to come: J. Jonah Jameson. After Jameson’s crusade against Spider-Man in the Daily Bugle, Peter was distraught. How was he going to be able to help his aunt and uncle now? In his misery, Peter ignored a bugler while Peter heading home from the studio for the last time. While it seemed insignificant at the time, Peter would later regret that decision. Later that week, Peter’s Uncle Ben was killed when a robber broke into their house. When Peter caught the murderer, he was shocked to the core when he discovered that the murderer was the same man whom Peter failed to stop earlier that week. Shaken by the experience, Peter finally learned the lesson that his Uncle Ben had been trying to teach him: <span class=""bb-i"">With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility</span>.<br/><br/>After he got his powers, but prior to his uncle’s death, Peter finally rallied up the courage to ask his dream crush, Gwen Stacy, out on a date. She was his Penelope. The death of Peter’s uncle just brought the two further together. However, as Peter’s career as Spider-Man began, Peter discovered how much damage his alter-ego had started to inflect on their relationship. Therefore, Peter revealed his secret to the love of his life. And this knowledge was the kiss of death for Gwen, although neither of them knew this at the time.<br/><br/>There was yet another bright spot in the sea of darkness that was Peter’s tragedy life. Peter and Angelica crossed paths again and they would never go separate ways again. The X-Men (in civilian garb) were visiting a science museum as a field trip (since the institute was a school, after all) when suddenly the Juggernaut attacked. After Peter helped the X-Men subdue the Juggernaut, both Peter and Angelica discovered the other’s secret identities. From that day forward, Peter, Angelica, and Angelica’s fellow X-Man, Bobby Drake (a.k.a. Iceman) formed the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>After his first year of fighting petty crocks, Peter thought this super-hero gig would be a piece of cake. Or at least until he began to meet his first super-powered villains. His first ‘super’ was the Chameleon, a super-villain who could change his appearance at will. After his encounters will the Chameleon and some other villains, like the Lizard and Doctor Octopus, Peter realized that he could no longer rely solely on his powers, as he did in his first year of super heroics. He needed to use his intelligence in order to overcome the obstacles in his way.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The War of the Roses"" type=""button"">The War of the Roses [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">However, Peter’s happiness could not last forever.<br/><br/>Over the last decade, the Kingpin of Crime held an iron grip over the criminal underworld on the East Coast. However, when his wife, Vanessa, grew deathly ill, which prompted the Kingpin to focus on curing his dying wife, the Kingpin of Crime began to loosen his grip over the city as his attention was directed elsewhere. Then, out of nowhere, a crime lord called ‘the Rose’ started to encroach onto the Kingpin’s turf. As a result of the Rose’s challenge to the Kingpin’s hegemony, a power struggle spiraled out of control, all the gangs of New York vied for power, and the NYPD were caught in the middle of it. <br/><br/>One night, when Peter was going to the Stacy residence so that he could take Gwen swinging around the city, Peter heard an explosion from within. After changing in his Spider-Man threads, Peter entered into the Stacy residence and found the mercenary, called Jack O’ Lantern, had kidnapped Gwen Stacy. Believing that someone had discovered his secret identity, which would made Gwen, his girlfriend, vulnerable, Peter chased after Gwen’s captor, following the Halloween-themed villain to the Rose’s base.<br/><br/>However, once at the Rose’s hideout, Peter, undetected by the Rose’s men, discovered that the Rose was going to use Gwen as leverage against Captain Stacy in order to get the NYPD off the Rose’s back. Knowing that his dual-life as Spider-Man was not the cause of Gwen’s kidnapping, Peter rushed to Captain Stacy and updated him on the situation. Once everyone was on the same page, Peter and Captain Stacy drafted a plan to save Gwen.<br/><br/>While the NYPD established a perimeter around the Rose’s headquarters and prepared for a raid on that base of operations, Peter snuck in to free Gwen. Synchronizing with Peter and Gwen’s escape, the police burst into the base, taking the Rose’s men by surprise. However, on their way out, Peter and Gwen ran into the Rose and Jack O’ Lantern. The Rose aimed to strike down Peter, but, utilizing his Spider Agility, Peter pushed Gwen out of the way and ducked away from the bullet.<br/><br/>Nevertheless, that bullet still struck someone: Captain Stacy. When Peter and Gwen had not exited from the building, Captain Stacy charged into the epicenter of the base in order to find them. Unfortunately, Captain Stacy was in the wrong place in the wrong time. While Peter and Gwen mourning the loss of Captain Stacy, the Rose made his escape. But the Jack O’ Lantern remained to cover the Rose’s flight.<br/><br/>During the chaos of the police raid and Jack O’ Lantern’s distraction attempt, Gwen was knocked off some scaffolding while Peter attempted to protect her from the Jack O’ Lantern. Peter tried to catch her with a webline, but the Jack O’ Lantern ignored the deadly situation that Gwen found herself in and sucker punched Peter in the back. Hoping to get out of the reach of his assailant, Peter leapt off the scaffolding and dove toward his girlfriend, catching her with a webline. However, when he dropped to the floor, Peter discovered that Gwen had not survived whiplash of his rescue attempt.<br/><br/>After grieving the deaths of his girlfriend and her father, who had been a surrogate father to Peter since both his real father and his uncle Ben had been killed, Peter turned his anger towards Jack O’ Lantern. In a fury of rage, Peter would have beaten Jack to a pulp, if he had not realized that he would have become just like the Rose and Jack O’ Lantern: a killer. Instead, Peter left Jack O’ Lantern for the police to deal with.<br/><br/>In the direct aftermath of the two Stacys’ deaths, Peter could not bring himself to dawn his Spider-Man costume, feeling that his alter-ego had been the cause of his girlfriend’s death. Combined with the rising uneasiness caused by the public reaction towards mutants and Jameson’s ever-continuing mudslinging, Peter retired his Spider-Man threads, believing that throwing in the towel would protect all his loved ones who were still alive.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Family &amp; Friends: </span><br/>-Richard and Mary Parker (deceased): Peter’s biological parents<br/>-Benjamin Parker (deceased): Peter’s Uncle (Richard Parker’s Brother)<br/>-May Reilly Parker: Peter’s Aunt (Benjamin Parker’s wife and Richard Parker’s sister-in-law)<br/>-Gwen Stacy (deceased): Peter’s most recent girlfriend.

Combined with Spider-Man’s reflexes, Spidey becomes a difficult target to hit.<br/>-Mechanical Web-Shooters: <br/>-Superhuman Strength: Spider-Man can easily lift approximately 5 tons. He can lift more weight if he exerts himself. Spider-Man must also pull his punches against opponents without similar levels of durability and strength.<br/>-Superhuman Speed: Spider-Man’s natural speed exceeds that of modern Olympic athletes.

For the last couple months, even since the day that Gwen died, Peter could not get himself to pull out his Spider-Man costume from his closet. In his head, Peter kept replaying images from that night and he contemplated how he could have changed those events so that Gwen, and even her father, might be alive today. But unfortunately, thinking about how he could have changed the various outcomes of that night could never bring either of them back from the grave.<br/><br/>“Peter! You have a guest!” Aunt May hollered to her nephew from the bottom of the stairs.<br/><br/>“Tell him I’m no here!” Peter shouted back. But instead of the silence that Peter wanted, he heard a knock on his door. Landing softly on his bed, just like a cat leaping down onto the floor, Peter flipped a switch on his desk that unlocked his door.<br/><br/>“It’s unlocked!” Peter said to whoever was on the other side of the door.<br/><br/>“You do realize that shouting down to your aunt kind of defeats the purpose of trying to get me to think that you are not here. And assuming that I am a ‘him’ is sexist.”<br/><br/>Angelica Jones walked into Peter’s room. Angelica and Peter were best friends in middle school, but her father enrolled her at the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning once her mutant powers manifested (although at the time neither of them knew what mutants were). But once the two became acquainted with the other’s secret double life, as Spider-Man and Firestar, the two old friends were able to rekindle their friendship.<br/><br/>“Whatever.” Peter said as he gazed at the floor, not looking his friend in the eyes.<br/><br/>“’Whatever’? That’s not what the Peter I know would say. He would have thrown a pun my way, no matter how bad it is! Are you sure you aren’t an imposter?” Angelica joked, trying to liven Peter up.<br/><br/>“No. I just have had a few rough months, that’s all.” Just mentioning the last couple months brought back painful memories of Gwen to Peter, causing him to sigh. Angelica plopped beside Peter on his bed, wrapping her arms around him, trying to give him the comfort and support that he needed.<br/><br/>“Maybe we should go out on patrol. Just to get your mind off of things.”<br/><br/>Peter shrugged off Angelica’s grasp on him, jumping up from his bed. “I don’t know. I just have not been in the mood since Gwen died.” But when he turned back around to face his friend, Angelica was trying to make the saddest facial expression that she could make.<br/><br/>“But do you even have your costume with you?” Peter asked. But almost as soon as Peter had uttered these words, Angelica lifted up the bottom of her shirt, revealing the yellow fabric that composed her ‘Firestar’ costume.<br/><br/>“Never leave home unprepared.” Angelica smiled at Peter.<br/><br/>Peter paused for a moment, contemplating whether he should even dawn his Spider-Man costume again. After much internal debating over this subject, Peter finally crumbled to Angelica’s peer-pressure. He opened up his closet door and scrambled to find his costume. The first costume he pulled out was the one he had worn on that fateful night when the girl of his dreams died. However, Peter had neglected to wash to since then. Therefore he made a mental note about washing it and continued to search for his spare costume.<br/><br/>“Okay, let’s do this.” Peter told Angelica, holding his spare costume in his hand.</div></div></div>"

While the wealthy members of society splurged their country's funds on glamour and material wealth the common folk froze in the street and starved. The country would continue this horrid decline for most of Victor's childhood before men like his father started organizing and deciding something had to be done about the government and the way it treats it's people. This began a Separatist movement lead by Victor's father Werner von Doom. At first the Separatists demanded their own free state apart from the established Republic of Latveria only to be denied. When the people who supported this movement began demonstrating they became subject to strong arm tactics causing the state to erupt into Civil war between the Republic State of Latveria and the Separatists lead by Werner von Doom.

For the rest of his time in Latveria Victor was forced to go into hiding with his mother to avoid the attention of the government, they went from safe house to safe house for years until one night when the government successfully located them. A firebomb was thrown through their window and the resulting fire consumed his mother and left Victor's body partially scarred. For fear of his sons life, Werner von Doom shipped his son off to an English boarding school under the alias 'Viktor Vaughn' an alias that would stick for a long time. It was during this period Victor's mind was truly shaped, with access to more information than he ever had the boy never stopped learning. He was a prodigy is most of his subjects and the ones he wasn't naturally gifted in, he studied and conquered. Victor would grow to learn whatever he put his mind to, he could easily accomplish.</div></div>

This exposed Victor to a whole plethora of knowledge and experience working with military grade robotics and would later prove to be his first stepping stone towards power. As his skills developed Victor began proposing changes to the original design and was soon seen by his superiors as their 'golden child', full of ideas and constantly revolutionizing the robotic field. In a mere three years at age 21 Victor would find himself as one of the youngest and most respected minds in his field eventually given his own lab in America and the privacy to develop whatever he wished. It was during this time Victor began experimenting with the idea of cybernetics and augmenting his own body for future purposes.

While one could not doubt Dr Viktor Vaughn's (Doom's still active alias) advanced knowledge of robotics none expected him to be the cunning businessman he was, slowly arising through the business that had been expanding around him Victor von Doom would soon find himself in line to be the next President of the company and eventually renamed the business 'Doom International' after changing his name and revealing his true identity as the son of a former Latveria Separatist leader. This new bit of information attracted many potential enemies to Victor but they stayed their distance knowing how untouchable the man was now, he was earning well over a few million a year alone and had more than enough to help fund the now empowered Separatist movement in Latveria. Doom International was now becoming one of the most respected developers of military grade weapons, namely in robotics and cybernetics, with a young 25 year old Victor von Doom leading them in the right direction.</div></div>

Victor has adopted a secret agenda to turn himself into a living weapon to help conquer Latveria for its people, while some may view this as some form of megalomania Victor believes ambition alone makes the man. Currently, he is a 30 year old single bachelor living as one of the richest men in Baltimore, Maryland. Under the guise of 'The Master' Victor von Doom funds the Latverian rebels and has proven to be the single largest impact in the last ten years, much like his father Victor has been able to lead the rebels to a slow victory over their oppressors.</div></div>
<font color=""gold"">Powers and Abilities:</font>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Advanced Genius Level Intellect</div>
Victor von Doom has proven to be one of the brightest minds on planet Earth to date. A world renowned scientist and businessman Doom has used his mind to get where he is today, he is constantly educating himself and picking up new skills. After enhancing himself with an advanced cybernetics system Victor's commutative abilities have multiplied massively, with a computer built in his brain visualizing theoretical situations and near instantaneous comprehension are only some abilities granted to him. Over the period of his life, Victor has used his great intellect to master a variety of combative skills.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Limited Technopathy</div>
An unnatural talent Victor has allowing him to innately understand almost all forms of technology he encounters. This has allowed Victor to forge thousands of gadgets although he may not always have them on hand.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Progenitor Bias</div>
An AI that is designed to serve Victor to its full potential, after completing cybernetic trials on himself granting him the ability to integrate with computers, Victor's next step was developing a system to operate it thus creating 'Progenitor Bias' one of the first self aware artificial lifeforms crafted by man. Running off a highly advanced quantum computing system, the AI runs a program that predicts what Victor's next actions <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> be and then prepares the suit for the most logical of them all with an accuracy of 98.95%. The AI has advanced protection system and backup directives designed to protect Victor at all cost from most imaginable situations. Since the system is hardwired straight into Victor's neural network it has been able to passively enhance his body to operate at its most peak physical level turning Victor into an Olympic level athlete.

<div class=""bb-h3"">'Doom Suit'</div>
A one-of-a-kind suit of armor Victor has invented for himself the suit has a multitude of uses and is constantly being upgraded by Doom.

<div class=""bb-indent"">The doom suit is comprised of three different layers of defense. The outer most layer is an invisible fore-field emitted from the belt of the Doom suit, this barrier is generally a skintight shield that absorbs a variety of damage but can also be expanded to encompass those around doom at the expense of strength. The second layer is a thin yet highly durable layer of titanium alloy plates spread around his body covering the most vital points and held on by the final layer - a highly advanced one of a kind cloth mesh that covers most of his body. The mesh is reactive to the AI controlling it and uses an advanced electronics seal the plates to the mesh. The suit is equipped with a highly sophisticated life support system with reserves that can sustain Victor for lengthy periods of time and allow him to survive in the harshest of environments.</div>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Magical Prowess</div>
Although currently unknown to him, Victor von Doom holds a natural ability to utilize magic he simply lacks training in the field to do so.

<font color=""gold"">Sample Story Arcs:</font> <ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Victor von Doom's entire life has been built around a single desire, for Latveria and her people to have their own identity free from corruption and oppression. To create a Utopia for mankind is Victor's ultimate goal, his path to achieving this however may not suit some people especially those who already hold the power themselves.</li><li>Much of his abilities are still in their infancy, if he wants to have the power to help his people Victor may need to embrace his magical heritage.</li><li>Victor's father and brother have never been confirmed dead, simply disappeared never to be heard from again. Although he personally believes they are dead and gone, he still wishes to find out the story behind their death and who is responsible for it.</li><li>Victor has many political and business enemies who would love to see nothing more than seeing him buried six feet under, many of these enemies even have the power to do so. Exactly who the enemies he has are for the most part unknown. This can easily result in a power struggle between him and many outside forces for control of his country and his international multi-billion dollar business.</li><li>Latveria is a rather small and underdeveloped country with very little natural resources, Victor figures there must be a reason that it is being so heavily contested.</li></ul>

I understand that too all I'm saying is.. Fine. I'll get it done don't worry.""</span> Victor slammed the phone down absorbing the silence that now filled his office. Dilemma after dilemma, this had been Victor's life since day one. He had always overcome any issue he ran into but never anything on this scale, what he was considering doing was war. His enemies had more power, more money, more allies than he but Victor has never backed down and this would be no different. There was a solution to every problem, he knew that the only issue was figuring one out. 

Currently the problem was with the foreign aid in Latveria, the rebels he supports aren't organized enough to break the stalemate. The only way he could get them to do that was if they unite under one leadership, specifically his, but without having a presence in that country the rebels may not obey him. Victor was required to be here in America to run his business and amass the wealth needed to fund his endeavor. There was no way he could operate in two places at once, was there? 

Spinning in his chair to face the massive ceiling-to-floor windows in his office, Victor leaned back in his chair and sighed when a knocked echoed from the door. <span class=""bb-b"">""Come in""</span> he called watching a slender, dark-skinned woman in a simple maroon dress enter. His secretary Beth was new and still appeared nervous when she spoke him <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello sir, I have your mail and that report you asked for from Dr. Anton Vanko.""</span> Victor nodded and continued looking out his window onto the sunny Boston city. As Beth approached his desk her clacking shoes echoed throughout the room and Victor felt them assault his ears with each step. Victor waited for her to place the stack of papers on his desk and begin to walk away before he calmly turned and addressed her.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Beth do you enjoy wearing those shoes?""</span> He said looking down at the papers, <span class=""bb-i"">more crap mostly</span> he thought to himself eyeing the manila envelop before he noticed a letter with the name 'Dr William White' written across the front the name seemed familiar but Victor ignored it and looked up at Beth.

Beth paused for a moment and appeared hesitant before she spoke <span class=""bb-b"">""No.. not really?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Then don't wear them anymore, no more clicky-clack shoes they drive me insane. Get yourself a comfortable and preferably quiet pair.""</span> his voice was firm yet he meant nothing by it, she had thought before she spoke and most important was honest something he would remember. Looking up she nodded at him before quickly slipping out through the door, clearly fearing she had made a fatal error. As the door shut behind her a sly smirk appeared on Victor's face, he always enjoyed watching people squirm. 

Lifting up the manila folder from Dr Vanko, he once more saw the letter from Dr White and Victor suddenly felt something click in his mind. His eyes widened and his head turned to face the computer, staring at the blank screen in front of him he allowed images to fill his head as the gears in his brain churned at full power. The name was familiar he knew that but now he knew who the man was, Dr White was an engineer and one of the members of the same team Victor was on to create the prototype drones all those years ago. He carefully opened the small letter and quickly scanned over the hastily written note. 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Dear Dr. von Doom,

Victor looked over the note again and his eyes focused on the words 'eastern european history'. Something about them stood out to Victor as if Dr White was trying to infer something. Picking up the envelope Victor found a small business card of a laundromat located in Boston, it featured a phone number and address along with a little washing machine decal. Giving the note one last read over Victor grew even more curious of what he could be trying to say. 

After a couple moments of consideration Victor lifted the phone on his desk and tapped in the number of the laundromat. The phone rung a couple times before the voice of an older man coughed out a raspy <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Hello this is Victor von Doom, President of Doom International. I was interested with speaking with Dr White?""</span> 

After a few moments Dr White spoke with a much more serious tone <span class=""bb-b"">""Yes. Let's meet next Friday. I'll be at your office then.""</span> without waiting for a reply the phone clicked off and Victor noted the date in his mind. Victor pulled the phone from his ear and looked at it curiously. Something was beginning to unfold around him and the fact he didn't fully understand it yet put him on edge for the first time in years.</div></div>

He learned from various masters of combat and underwent an excruciating training regiment led by the Si-Fan, elite assassins under his father's employ. Each session left the young boy battered and bruised. Nights rarely offered him a chance to rest, for lectures and philosophy awaited him in the moonlight. These after hour teachings often involved watching his father torture those who had wronged him and his organization. It was meant to strengthen his son's resolve. Fu Manchu hoped to instill the proper foundation for his son to one day rule in his place. Shang Chi, however, had no such desires.

Despite Fu Manchu's best efforts, his son's heart was simply incorruptible. In fact, baring witness to such cruelty only invigorated Shang Chi to bring justice for all of his father's wrongdoings. It thus became his motivation in life to thwart any and all of his operations, covertly sabotaging every element of his father's empire. Eventual word of his son's betrayal summoned a merciless demon within Fu Manchu. From that day forward, Shang Chi never stopped looking over his shoulder. The crime lord sent wave after wave of assassins, but none were successful against the prodigal master of combat. To this day, Fu Manchu and his Si-Fan relentlessly pursue the betrayer, stopping at nothing until vengeance is claimed and honor is restored.</div></div>

One of particular note was Danny Rand, the 66th Iron Fist to ever wield the power of Shou Lao the Undying. The two were great friends and formidable allies in the war against crime and villainy. However, overtime it became apparent that the dragon force Rand wielded had corrupted his chi - so much so that Shou Lao possessed the Iron Fist without much resistance, taking full control of his powers in the process.

The results were catastrophic. 

Shou Lao's possession of Danny Rand nearly decimated the entire Eastern seaboard. Shang Chi had no choice but to stop his friend. He hoped to release Danny from the dragon's control without killing him. The feat itself would prove to be impossible. The duel eventually ascended into other-wordly combat, as Shang Chi and the possessed Iron Fist fought on an ethereal battlefield. What passed as minutes went by in years within the trans dimensional pocket of reality where Shou Lao's essence reigned supreme. Shang managed to strike at a vital spot that weakened the dragon's grip over Rand. In this moment, Shou Lao sensed its demise and used a great sum of his power to force the battle back onto earth. With the dragon seemingly vulnerable, Danny Rand was able to temporarily regain control of his body. With much regret, Shang Chi was forced to land the final blow - ending the battle and Danny Rand's life, severing his link between Shou Lao in the process. Such a feat activated the rite of transfer, and contrary to Shang Chi's aversion, became the 67th Iron Fist to wield the dragon force of Shou Lao the Undying.

Those affiliated with Shang and Danny are somewhat conflicted with what happened. Some fear that the Shou Lao will try to possess him like it did Rand. Others hold a grudge against Shang, believing there was another way, a better way, to save their friend. The general consensus is that Shang Chi saved the world at a great cost, but there is an underlying sentiment among a select few (namely Luke Cage) that claim he wanted the power of the dragon force for himself. Whether or not that's true remains to be seen...</div></div>

It is one of the capital cities of heaven, the one true haven for all Iron Fists. For reasons unknown, Shang Chi cannot communicate with any of the former Iron Fists, thus making his search even more difficult. His only clue to its location is a myth that says the mystical city appears on earth only once every ten years. He hopes to enter K'un-Lun and somehow bring Danny back from the dead and be rid of the dragon force once and for all.</div></div>

The soft radiance of the rising sun brought warmth to his body. Shang Chi stood perched on top of a tall oak, perfectly motionless since the night before. He assumed the form of the crane stance, maintaining his entire weight on a single leg with both arms raised above his head. If it were not for the yellow-colored sash and mask, he could've been mistaken as an extension of the branch. His emerald green garbs blended well with the forest in full bloom.

Both ends of the spectrum must meet before reaching the peak of their truer essence. With it, brings life dependent upon each cycle...</span>

Shang Chi meditated on those words. He did not force their understanding, rather, he continued to let them roll off the tongue of his inner voice. Such was the paradigm of truths as of late. Since dawning the mantle of the Iron Fist, Shang Chi has been caught in a tumultuous flux. Merging with the powerful dragon force of Shao Lou the Undying has bloated his chi, creating imbalance. Oversaturated with power, the Master of Kung Fu struggles to maintain equilibrium. His internal dilemma is no doubt amplified by the loss of his friend, Danny Rand. In his passing, Daniel gave the power of the Iron Fist to a reluctant Shang Chi. The resulting pain from acquiring it is one that cannot be simply healed.  

Images of their combat flashed into his mind. The glaring eyes of Shao Lou flickered within Danny's possessed gaze as they battled on. Momentary glimpses of Rand's normal self would resurface during their duel from time to time. It made the fight even more difficult for Shang Chi to overcome. It became abundantly clear that relinquishing Shao Lou's possession of Danny without fatal injury wasn't possible. After fighting to a standstill, there was simply no other way... 

<span class=""bb-i"">Or was there?</span> 

Shang Chi frowned. <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-i"">No... there was no other way.</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Oh? You truly believe so?</span>

Shang struggled to remain calm, tried taking deep breaths to control his heart rate. <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Stop.</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Claim the high horse as your seat all you like, but no matter which angle you look at it, the apple did not fall far from the tree...son of Fu Man-</span>

""GRRRRGGHHH!!!!!"" Without hesitation or thought, Shang Chi clenched his fist until it bled with golden energy and slammed it onto the trunk of the oak. A rippling wave of chi splashed into the shape of a spear, evaporating the top end of the tree in its bright aura. The weight of such power came as a shock, and Shang Chi no longer had control of it. The concussive force of the blast immediately broke the large oak from its foundation, then bulldozed through a cluster of other trees behind it. Shang immediately leapt off the falling oak and landed onto the branch of another. The sound of groaning wood and crashing thuds ignited the forest in a frenzy. Birds flew to the skies, cawing in fear.  

Shang regained his composure, calming the inner storms of his mind and spirit. Somewhere deep within himself, he could feel Shao Lou smiling. It made him sick.

<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Hero 
<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation:</span> Himself, the Folk (Humanity) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span>
Many years ago, when Bor, ruler of Asgard, was battling frost giants, he followed a wounded giant to a powerful sorcerer that was waiting for him. The sorcerer caught him unaware, turning Bor into snow. Bor's son, Odin, found his father as he was blowing away; Bor begged Odin to find a sorcerer to free him, but Odin made no attempt to save his father. Bor cursed Odin saying that he would take in the son of a fallen king and raise it as his own. Not a week later, Odin himself led the Asgardians into battle against the Frost Giants and killed Laufey, who was the King, in personal combat. After slaying Laufey, Odin found a small Asgardian-sized child hidden within the primary stronghold of the Frost Giants. The child was Loki and Laufey had kept him hidden from his people due to his shame over his son's small size. Odin took the boy, out of a combination of pity, to appease his father, and because he was the son of a worthy adversary slain in honorable combat, and raised him as his son. 

For a number of years, Loki tried to live up to his father's expectations and earn his rightful place in Asgard. His parentage as the child of a frost giant shadowed his dealings with the other members of Asgard, but it was his personality and personal strengths that truly distanced him from his peers; The Asgardians valued great strength, tenacity, and bravery in battle above all things while Loki instead favored intelligence and trickery to win his battles. While such conduct was oftentimes considered dishonorable by the more 'honor bound' (Read: Thick headed) Asgardians, Loki did earn a grudging respect for himself after he was able to trick an enemy builder into building Asgard a mighty defensive wall for nothing without harming the honor of the Asgardians; The builder himself had in fact been one of the Rock Folk (troll) trying to con the Asgardians by presenting himself as a member of the Folk instead of his true form in order to secure the payment of the Goddess of Desire for a bride alongside control of the Sun and the Moon.

Things changed the day that, as a joke, Loki cut off Sif's hair. Threatened with violence, Loki promised to fetch replacement hair from the dwarves. Having a word with the Sons of Ivaldi in order to have the hair created, Loki decided to try and earn some goodwill with the rest of Asgard by having two other gifts created; A magical ship that could sink down enough to be fitted into a pocket and a spear that would never miss its target. As he was about to return to Asgard with these gifts, Loki ran into a dwarf named Eitri who was insulted that Loki had gone to the Sons of Ivaldi over him. Loki challenged him to do better and Eitri accepted; the terms of the bet was that Eitri would make three gifts of his own and all six would be presented to the Asgardians who would judge which gifts were better. If Loki lost, Eitri would claim his head for daring to disregard his abilities.

As Eitri and his brother work the forge, Loki shape-shifted into a mayfly and attempted to sabotage the pair's efforts by biting Eitri's brother while he works the bellows. The first two attempts failed to produce results, but while working on the final treasure (A hammer) Loki bit Eitri's brother right between the eyes, causing him to stop pumping the bellows in pain for a moment and causing the hammer to be flawed (Its handle was shorter then it was intended, resulting in it only being a one handed weapon). 

Despite the flaw in his work, the Asgardian's judged Eitri's gifts to be the better. As the dwarf went to claim his price of Loki's head, Loki managed to save himself by claiming that while his head was Eitri's, his neck was still his and thus he had no right to harm it. Unable to find a way to remove Loki's head without harming his neck, Eitri was enraged to find himself cheated of his prize and instead decided to sow Loki's mouth shut much to the amusement of the various Asgardian's who had been witness to the presentation of the gifts. Eitri's magic would leave eight silver scars on his face, four on each side of his mouth. 

This was the moment that Loki finally realized that he would never truly be considered one of the Asgardian's. While it was true that not all of them laughed at his pain, not a single one of them attempted to help him in the slightest. This was the moment that Loki vowed that he would see them all fall. 

Over the years Loki would subtlety undermine and weaken the Asgardian's from within, often by using their natures against them to either harm their relationships with each other or to lose powerful artifices to their enemies; All the while, he would carefully be gathering together allies from the various enemies of the Asgardian's, more often then not by making them think they were the ones getting the upper hand against the Trickster.

Loki would have numerous children during this period. By his wife Sigyn he would have twin sons named Vali and Narvi; By the sorceress Angrboda he would have his daughter Hel, Fenris the wolf demon and Jormungand the world serpent. 

Loki would continue his attempts to undermine Asgard until Odin would share the prophecy of Mimir with the other gods while taking all effort to prevent Loki from finding out about it. With the other Asgardian's making him more uncomfortable and more unwelcome then normal and learning that it was due to some sort of prophecy, Loki would secretly visit Mimir to hear it for himself. 

Hearing Mimir's prophecy put several ideas that Loki would never have thought of on his own in his head. Carrying out these new plans Loki was forced into hiding in an attempt to escape from the wrath of the Asgardian's. Several attempts were made to capture Loki, such as Odin threatening to execute Loki's twin sons if he didn't return; When Loki didn't surrender himself, Odin carried out his threat. Shortly afterwards, Loki was captured. Bound to a tree at the boarders of the worlds to remain until the end of the world, Loki would be captive to a venomous snake that kept spiting insanely painful venom into his eyes and his wife Sigyn (who after the death of her twin sons was deranged enough to make Annie Wilkes proud).

Loki would stay there for quite sometime until he was freed from his torment by the Sorceress Gullvieg-Heid to aid her in bringing about the end of Asgard and Ragnarök. Loki, completely consumed by a desire for revenge, agreed. 

Ragnarök happened shortly afterwards. It is hard to put into words the scale of the worlds being destroyed after the sun and the moon was consumed by the fel wolves, of the pain and bloodshed as brother turned against brother and monsters of all shapes and sizes laid siege to Asgard. It is hard for mere words to do justice to the death of gods and the Chaos that consumed all. 

While Ragnarök was an end, it wasn't the end. The worlds were reborn and the new came to replace the ruins of the old. 

A number of Asgardian's didn't actually die during Ragnarök, instead being claimed by the Lord of Chaos and locked away inside of a fortress in the Netherworld. Loki found himself amongst that number since his propose had been fulfilled. Locked in a cell of his own worst fears with a demon personally crafted to ensure that he couldn't escape (Naturally in the shape of a snake) Loki would have completely lost himself to his despair were it not for a single ray of hope. 

The last few verses of Mimir's prophecy suggested that the worlds would start anew and that, possibly, he might have a chance to escape this torment and start with a clean slate. A flimsy ray of hope maybe, but hope none the less that helped keep Loki relatively sane. 

Time is not really a factor in the Netherworld (It's the realm of chaos. Rules like time don't really apply there) but after who knows how long of imprisonment and torment Loki found himself freed from his cell and on the world of the Folk (Humans) after a group of young human males calling themselves Young Serbia performed a powerful ritual to try and summon a force of chaos to aid them in freeing Serbia from Austria-Hungary's iron grasp. They were rather successful as it turned out. 

While he was more than grateful to be free and might have even aided his rescuers on his own accord, the fact that they had used the ritual to bind him to their service irked him greatly.

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife and the almost comical series of mishaps that happened on both sides that finally brought the assassination about were very much Loki's doing... And once the task was performed his debt was fulfilled and he was completely free to abandon his liberators to their accepted ends. Before the year was over, Loki was shocked, proud and a little bit horrified at the sheer scale of death and destruction that was sparked off by his actions. 

The chaos brought about by the 'Great War' was more then enough to restore and sustain Loki for quite a long time, but still he decided to lay low in order to get a feel for the world he now found himself in. If what had quite honestly started off as a minor conflict had resulted in a war so grand in scale that it shook the very world to the core he needed to reign himself in before he found himself standing alone in a Hel like landscape or worse.

Over the 98 years that he has been free, Loki has kept a somewhat more subtle existence. In truth, he has rather taken a shine to these cycle of Folk due to their naturally chaotic and intelligent nature; Unlike the worlds of old in which the strongest ruled and were respected, here it was the inventive and the cunning that took point in shaping how things continued on. While Loki is more then willing to slip in the odd joke, most of his work over the years has been dedicated to preventing the Folk from wiping themselves out.

The recent raise of Super-humans has actually caught Loki's interest and has offered him the chance to be a bit more open about his existence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Powers, Abilities and Weaknesses"" type=""button"">Powers, Abilities and Weaknesses [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Loki is a member of the race of Frost Giants of Jotunheim, although not a giant in stature. He possesses physical attributes equal to a fit member of the race known as the Asgardian Gods, such as enhanced strength; stamina, speed, durability, (his Frost Giant metabolism grants him superhuman levels of physical stamina in practically all activities); durability enough to harmlessly withstand high-caliber bullets; and immunity to all known diseases and toxins, as well as resistance to magic. 

Loki possesses genius-level intelligence and has extensive training in magic, and possesses the ability to manipulate magical forces for a variety of purposes: energy projection, creation of force fields, temporarily increasing his own physical strength, granting superhuman abilities to living beings or inanimate objects, flight, hypnosis, illusion casting, and inter-dimensional teleportation.

Loki's magical abilities have been described as equal to those of Karnilla, the most skilled sorceress of Asgard. His illusion casting can fool cities, and powerful entities such as Surtur.

Loki is an adept shapeshifter and can change into animals (examples include transmogrification to a salmon, horse, etc.) or impersonate other people. However, he does not necessarily gain the abilities of whatever he turns into, although minor natural abilities such as flight in bird form tend to work. Loki may mimic the abilities of some supernatural beings if he turn into such creatures.

Loki possesses a brilliant intellect, with some knowledge of technology. He is an expert manipulator and schemer, frequently using pawns in his plans. He is sometimes armed with a sword, a whip, or a three-pronged spear and has used magical items to enhance his powers.

To the surprise of those who don't know his past all that well, Loki has Ophidiophobia; a fear of snakes. This is something that he keeps very much to himself.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Second Chance with a clean slate:</span> Loki has been granted something that he had hoped but honestly never expected to get; A second chance at life. With Asgard gone, all of the Asgardian's that he had hated either long dead or rotting in a cell in the Netherworld and after enduring the torment of the Netherworld and his mistakes for countless eons, Loki is rather happy to try a be something deserving of this second chance.

<span class=""bb-i"">Morality is objective:</span> Loki's idea of morality has never been the most fixed of things, even back when he wasn't plotting and scheming against the powers that be in Asgard. However, the scale of morality that he was raised with is vastly different to the one that is often used by modern cultures of the Folk. Such things can cause friction between himself and the forces of 'Good' 

<span class=""bb-i"">Can the scorpion truly change his nature?:</span> Being a hero and doing good for others without some end goal in mind is... new to Loki. Will he be able to maintain his new found desire to do good or will he fall back into old habits once more? 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span>
Despite having had the ability to do so for almost a century, there was nothing quite like laying down on a soft bed and simply... relaxing. As his head sank a little into the pillow, Loki couldn't help he smile a little. 

If he had to pick only one thing about this new world the Folk had made for themselves that he loved, he would be very hard pressed not to answer finance. The whole system was based on the agreed upon illusion that a piece of paper was equal to an agreed upon amount of gold and that a bank will happily trade that note for the agreed amount of gold on the condition that no one ever asks them to do so. 

Opening his eyes for a moment and looking around his hotel suite, Loki's silvery grin seemed to grow a little wider. The bedroom alone had already bested the riches and comfits of some of the halls of Asgard herself; The fact that the bastards who had denied him his own hall in Asgard would never be able to enjoy such a thing themselves appealed to the wicked part of Loki's soul and simply made the experience all the better. 

It didn't even take all that much to secure the room either. A simple illusion so that a machine registered that there was enough illusionary money wasn't all that hard and quite frankly was pretty much what the whole system was based off of anyway. 

Reaching over for the remote, Loki happily turned on the rather large TV that on opposite the bed. Changing the channel a few times to see what was on he stopped as he came across one of the news networks. The title of the story currently headlining at caught his attention and he couldn't help but settle in to watch. 

""<span class=""bb-i"">As police arrived at the scene, dozens of colored men wearing the white robes of the KKK were already dead on the ground as the still living members of the terrorist organization were trying to murder each other, all of them also of color. As police started to round up and arrest the survivors some of them started to recognize the men that they were arresting and they can confirm with the family, friends and video evidence that the suspects had been Caucasian mere hours before the arrest. Medical personal are currently...</span>"" 

Loki didn't hear the rest of the report because he was to busy laughing and trying to hold in his sides. It was honestly one of the best pranks he had ever pulled. Changing the color of something was a surprisingly easy spell and frankly the reason behind their hatred was just plain stupid and foolish. Wiping away a build up of water around his eyes as his laughter started to slow down, Loki couldn't help but bask in the glow of how good he felt. 

With a satisfied sigh, he whispered to himself ""Life is good.""</div>"

""The hell do you want, puta?""

The bouncer outside the nightclub didn't have time to get his answer. A powerful fist struck him in the face and drove him to the ground. The bouncer looked up, his sunglasses astray, and right into the blade of a butterfly knife. The clubgoers standing outside watched on in shock.

""Carlos Fring,"" Rachel said, placing the blade of the knife under the bouncer's eye.

""Fuck off!"" The large man yelled.

""Wrong answer."" Rachel raked the blade up the bouncer's face. The bystanders recoiled and horror and began to scatter.

""Ahhh!"" The bouncer screamed. He held his bloody face with both hands. ""He's in the back office!""

Rachel flicked the blade back into its handles and slid the knife back into the holster strapped to her thigh. She stepped over the bleeding bouncer and into the club, a sawed-off shotgun hidden under her coat. Strobe lights flashed and heavy, techo music blasted out the club's speakers. She navigated through the jumping and bumping throng of people towards the club's back offices.

A few hundred feet away, Carlos Fring sat at the desk in the club's backroom. He had his pants around his ankles and a woman's face buried into his crotch. While Carlos ""relaxed"", twin brothers Rob and Roy James were busy at a folding table in front of the desk. They were counting and weighing the half dozen bricks of cocaine and marijuana that were stacked on the table.

""This all?"" Roy asked. ""This ain't nothing.""

""Times are tough,"" Carlos said as he titled his head back and closed his eyes. ""In a few more weeks we will have a full shipment. Relax. For now, get your people to...,"" Carlos lost his train of thought as the woman between his legs rolled her tongue. ""... Just, business as usual. Smaller supply, cut it more.""

On the main dance floor, Rachel started to climb up a flight of stairs when a pair of powerful hands grabbed her by the shoulders. She spun around and was brought face to face with a large, Latino man in a dark suit. He tried to shout over the music, but couldn't be heard. While he was shouting, Rachel leveled the shotgun at the man's stomach. The gun kicked in her hands and knocked the man back. The sound of the music masked the shotgun blast. The dying man tumbled down the stairs and came to a stop on the bottom step. One gyrating young girl saw the dead body and screamed before running towards the exit.

Rachel racked another round into the shotgun and turned around, quickly climbing the steps. Another guard was waiting at the top of the stairwell. Before the man could react, Rachel brought the butt of the shotgun up into his face. She drove the cartilage from the man's nose up and into his head, puncturing the brain stem. The guard collapsed to the ground, spasming from the brain injury that would kill him in a few seconds.

Rachel calmly walked down the hall leading towards the backroom. She was almost there when a black man jumped out and knocked the shotgun from her hands. The man drove Rachel into the corridor's wall and slammed up against her. The guard pummeled her with blows to the face. Rachel shook off the blows and headbutted the man in the face. The guard stumbled backwards and Rachel whipped out her knife, flicking the blade open as the guard charged. She took a glancing blow to the shoulder, but managed to drive the blade of his knife into the side of the man's neck. He cried out and fell to his side. Rachel loomed over him, her face bloody and bruised, and kicked the hilt of the knife further into the man's neck. He went to scream, but blood bubbled out of his mouth and ran out on the floor.

Rachel picked up her shotgun and kicked in the office door. Rob and Roy James looked up just in time to be hit with a blast of pellets. The twin brothers fell to the ground, their heads and chests covered in blood and buckshot. Carlos cried out in pain from behind the desk. The sudden shock of the gun had caused the woman between his legs to bite down.

""Crazy bitch!"" Carlos yelled. He rolled back and the woman underneath the desk popped up, blood and chunks of flesh coated her mouth. ""You bit it off! ¡Oh, Dios. Me voy a morir! Maldita perra.""

""Go,"" Rachel said, looking at the woman. She scurried off and Frank walked over to Carlos. The gangster held on to his bloody crotch and moaned. Rachel looked down at the bloody member laying on the floor. ""I guess it's true what they say about men with little feet... I had planned to shoot you, but I think this is worse.""

She kneed Fring in his crotch. ""¡Dios mío,"" the man howled in pain and dry heaved. Rachel grabbed Fring by his shoulders and bent down.

""Now that I have your attention, you're going to deliver a message to Don Eladio... He's next.""</div></div></div>"

Player Name: The New Yorker
Character Name: Matthew Miyahara
Moral Alignment: Walking the Line
Affiliation: NYPD (briefly with IA during recruitment), Columbia Law School, Lehman University

Character Origin &amp; Backstory

Matthew Miyahara was born to a brilliant scientist and a former Japanese Special Forces Commander, Beth and Hideo respectively. The married couple moved to the United States after a frightful encounter with Yakuza members in their home. In reality, Hideo was forced to move, for the sake of his family and his honor on the force, it was an order. When they came to America they did not have a child. In 1989 Hideo was 37 and Beth was 31. As soon as they landed on the rainy shores of Seattle they conceived Matthew. So they hit the road and headed east. Beth already had a job lined up at the blooming Fisk Industries*, and Hideo had family in New York anyway. They moved into a quiet brownstone in Riverdale and began creating a home for a toddler. Matthew was born in 1990 May, 27th in that brownstone’s living-room surrounded by family. And so he was raised in this family of three in the Bronx and so he was nurtured by his brilliant mother and strict father. Hideo was stern, certainly, but also very loving of his family. He thought of them, almost, as art, something he helped create with his blood, sweat, tears. And it was in his blood, sweat, and tears that he was forever snuffed from this world, taking with him a portion of the art that was his family. He was followed shortly after by his wife, some suggest she killed herself, Matthew holds that it was foul play, though no body has ever been found. By ’98 Matthew was orphaned and his grandfather and grandmother became his legal guardians, they were his father’s parents. 

Matts Grandfather Daisuke, known locally as Stick, was one of the first and only heroes operating in the Bronx in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s. He prowled the rooftops in light armor refitted with armor plating from a Samurai suit. The history of Daisuke is long and fantastic but very few know of it, and Daisuke never speaks of it. Matthew only learned of his grandfather’s alter ego through researching into the most obscure newspaper articles and tabloid headlines in order to barely scratch the surface. After understanding the greatness of the man he called “pop-pop” at the age of 13 Matthew was proud, he reeled, asked his Grandfather to teach him the intricacies of the Japanese martial arts. Matt was never old enough for his father to teach him anything and he was, shamefully, disinterested at the time. Matt felt like this would help him better remember his father, by consuming something his father held so dear. And so Daisuke taught his grandson the art of Jujutsu, Kenjutsu, Ninjutsu, and Aikido. 

By 14 Matt is enrolled in the prestigious Bronx Science, one of the best High schools in New York. By 16 Matthew graduates. Matthew was home schooled by his mother while she was alive, she imparted great wisdom onto him and fostered a feverish interest in knowledge in the young man. That most likely led to his successful academic career. At 16 Matt wanted to enter the police academy, he is turned down and is told to go to college instead, he does so. A full scholarship sweeps 16 year old Matthew Miyahara out of the Bronx and into Columbia Law School under incredibly special circumstances, he is to take supplementary classes at Lehman, near where he lived. For 4 whole years Matt devotes himself to his simultaneous BA in Political science, and Doctorate in Criminal pathology. At 20 years old Matthew Miyahara is a well-trained, Pathologist with the skills of a samurai. He gets a fast-track through the NYPD and passes through the academy with flying colors. During his internship in the Academy he works with Internal Affairs in order to help take down two crooked instructors, they ran a drug scam with some of the students. At 21 Matt is on the force and is not too well liked, he finds a dead rat in his locker at the end of his first month. Matt is enjoying his time on the force, almost a year in, despite his co-workers attempt at the opposite. Matthew responds to a call of shots fired at the midtown docks, a call that will change the rest of his life. 

Powers and Abilities

-Genius level intellect:  Matthew is incredibly perceptive, and not just in a strictly sensory way. He knows when things don’t fit, he can tell when something doesn’t make sense, and how the dots connect. He also has a huge wealth of information and knowledge regarding legal, political, and scientific matters. Beside all of that, Matthew is an excellent learner and listener. 

-Acrobatic dexterity: Matthew’s training with his grandfather has made him lithe and agile. He is able to make huge leaps, climb over vertical surfaces with ease, and perform acrobatic tricks. 

-Martial arts: Matthew is skilled in joint-locking, “soft skill” force indirection, stealth, swordsmanship, and all the other tiny skills involved therein. 

-Radar senses: Once Matthew is blind he gains the ability to perceive things around him by the use of an electromagnetic pulse radar which mutated in his brain. He isn’t seeing anything, just receiving feedback from this mutated electromagnetic pulse mechanism which projects images in his consciousness. 

Heightened senses: The radiation also allowed for dramatic acceleration of Matthew's other senses with the loss of his sight. 

Weaknesses

-Blind: Despite his extrasensory mutant abilities, Matthew is still blind. He doesn't receive constant feedback from this sort of echo location, so someone moving quickly and stealthily could elude Matthew quite well. 

-Emotional: Despite being a logical and rational thinker, Matthew can sometimes loose control of himself, allowing his emotions to run amok on his thinking. Revenge is currently an overriding element. 

Sample archs:

-Building the Man: Matthew needs to regain his confidence, reassure himself of his abilities and place in the world. Getting a job as a lawyer should do the trick. Here he starts understanding more about his radioactively induced mutations as well. 

-Building the Machine: Matthew begins his proper work as the Daredevil, setting out on a course of vengence to find the truth behind the killing of his family. 

-Building the Legend: With the hunt for the Kingpin behind him, Matthew and the Daredevil venture even further into the darkness in order to spread light. The man without fear becomes a Marvel Knight.

The crimson glow from the taillight speeds along the black road behind the white and blue steel beauty as it hovers past closed restaurants, and a doctor’s office, and a Starbucks. Matt’s bony hands clutch the steering wheel until his knuckles are white and his fingers are red. He quickly lifts the radio receiver to his mouth and clicks the button on the side. 

“10-4, I’ve got that, Stace”

Matt turned into 47th and let the car glide down the little road without any extra speed. Matthews’s partner held onto the dashboard like he was afraid he might go crashing through the window pane. He was a portly man who looked to still be capable in a fight. His white mustache crossed his upper lip like a badge itself. 

“Ease up there, cowboy.” Terry McGillan said quietly, not wanting to instigate. 

“It’s an emergency, Terry.” Matt said, smile on his face. He turned up into 8th and around another corner toward the docks. 

The two boys in blue exited the vehicle in proper police protocol when dealing with a shooting call, guns drawn. They eased up to the chain-link gate and tested it, it didn’t open. 

“Ah, damnit, don’t tell me I gotta hop this goddamn fence.” Terry blurted, holding his gun to his side like some kind of play thing. 

Matt holstered his gun, and without saying a word, mounted the fence. He flopped onto the other side unscathed and went to retrieve the keys that were likely in the guard house a few feet away. He wasn’t even near it before he heard a single gun-shot, then another. A white flash illuminated the far off dock and Matt could see some standing figures etched in the distance. He sprinted down the concrete road to the dock and the gunshots. 

“Hey! Hey, hold it! Wait for back up, boy!” Terry screamed behind Matt as he dashed down the pavement.  “Son of a bitch—“ he whispered to himself, half-running to the radio in the car. He called in back-up in rushed, yet professional tones.  

Matthew’s sprint was even and fast as all hell. His pistol was in his hand, his index finger readily extended near the trigger. Now that he was closer Matt could see two standing figures, drenched in the shadows of the sepia colored lamplight. One tossed a body into the river and the other held what looked to be a bat. On the ground were three bodies, laid out like dolls, a woman kneeled like an angel under the bat-wielders shadow. Matt quickly stopped in place, no more than 25 feet from the scene and pointed his gun forward. He was sweating a little and his vision shook but his hand was gratefully steady. The barrel lined up with the chest of the man holding the bat. The man lifted the bat behind his head and twisted his body. 

“Freeze! Right now! Police!” Matt’s voice was load, clear, commanding. He felt a rush of adrenaline, the confidence gleamed from his badge and gun. He felt good about himself. 

The man with the bat let his bodyweight take over then, the bat swung around his body like a comet to a planet and crashed into the head of the woman kneeling. Her body slumped to the floor and Matt was certain he saw a piece of her skull skitter across the concrete. 

The man who was previously dumping a body wheeled around and his hand lifted from his coat. Matt shifted his weight and brought the pistol’s barrel to the left, his hand went a little too far and so he brought it back and fired. The man to the left twitched and almost fell to the ground, his gun hand dropped to his side and he fell to one knee. The man to the right, holding the bat, sprinted off down the dock lane. Matt fell to one knee and took better aim, just as the man with the gun, who remained near the bodies, tried to do. Matt fired two more shots, the second capped the man. Matt rose and sprinted toward the bodies. 

What he found there was a heart-splitting disaster. Two men and two women dead, all beaten and shot. Matt looked at the latest victim, most of her head was leaking onto the floor. He was drawn in by the gruesome display. It called to him, not just in desperation, as dead bodies do, but aesthetically as well. 

That single thought made Matt shiver, and he glanced down the lane to make sure he wasn’t being aimed at. But just as he turned away he saw something in her cold, pale face. She had familiar almond eyes. Matt searched her nametag only to be struck with utter shock. Miyahara was her last name, Janice Miyahara. His heart was pounding through his shirt and his could feel the pulsing of his chest. Matt stood, he was wrapped in his blues, the badge on his chest gleamed dangerously in the lamplight. Two more cop cars wailed at the entrance, the red and blue lights breaching the darkness. 

Matt sprinted down the dock lane like he’d never sprinted before, he was propelled by the thirst for knowledge, just as he’d always been. This time is was deep, it was emotional, and it was for his family. A figure just disappeared behind a truck, seemingly a gas truck, it’s metal cylindrical train shining. Matt approached it quietly, yet quickly. He turned the corner that was the truck only to receive a personal greeting from a bat. It swung in the air trying to hit is head, knocking the gun from his hands as he recoiled backwards. The bat swung into the trucks train instead. A big dent formed around where it was struck. Matt drew his billie club and blocked another attack. The man wore a leather jacket, corduroy pants. Matt smacked the guy in the stomach with his club and tried for the head. The man ducked and hit Matt in the ribs, then he grabbed the cop by his collar and threw him against the back of the truck, knocking the air out of his lungs. 

Matt thought about his grandfather’s training, it was always about presence. About maintaining a consciousness even when you should not have one, a presence. Matt maintained consciousness and so blocked the incoming, lethal bat attack. He lifted his club over his head and knocked the bat into the train once more, this time directly at the point where it’d already been hit. A small rupture expelled gas and then whatever incredibly dangerous toxic waste the train was housing. The waste completely covered Matt’s assailant, knocking him to the ground and drowning him in the stuff. Matt was able to get away with only a spray on his face. However, when he got the goop from his eyes, and it wasn’t painful to try opening them any longer, he did so only to find darkness. 

“I’m… oh, hrmm… I can’t see anything.” Matthew sobbed as Terry ran up to him, crouched on the floor. Both of their voices cracked with shock and despair. 

“You’re going to be alright, kid.”

“Fuck, Terry… No, no, no, no, no!” He screamed loud enough for every cop and pedestrian in the area to hear him. He yelled and no tears streamed from his white eyes though he felt like crying until he was dead. Spittle fell to the floor as he writhed and sobbed in Terry’s grasp. He knew right then that he’d never see again. Terry felt like he’d lost his son all over again, and so he cried when the boy could not. 

<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">*** Three months after the accident***</div></span>

Laudanum is a tincture of opium and alcohol, and is often used, recreationally, with hard liquor. It is an incredibly addictive reddish brown liquid, and some of the stuff sat in a snuff glass on Matt's nightstand. His head was hunched over his bare curved body. Some scars laced his back from days gone past, and the most recent scar was ever present, as it always would be. Matt lifted his head into the smokey air, his face bore the burned stains of a splash mark, splayed across his nose and eyes; <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> were a cold white, inattentive to the world. He grasped the glass of liquid dreams, and brought it to his lips. He tilted his head back and some of it dripped into his mouth when the door of his room was opened. Matt took the glass from his mouth and set it back on the nightstand. Karen Page stood in the doorway, her hands placed firmly on her hips. Her blue eyes pierced through the smoky darkness.

Karen walked into the room and opened the window blinds, releasing the bright, mid-day sunlight into the room. Matt could feel the heat of the sun on his forearms and across his collar bone. He quietly sat as Karen walked around the room, picking up bottles of liquor, loose clothes, and dishes. She took them from the room, purposefully ignoring Matt, and into the living room. Matt grabbed the Laudanum from the night table and sipped it. He was flushed with euphoria, then relief, then memories, then sadness, then shame, and finally anger. He smashed the glass on the nightstand next to him, breaking it utterly. His hand was immediately cut up, some rogue shards managed to cut is forearm slightly as well. Matt could feel the warm, sticky, liquid on his hand and arm, and was thrown back into sadness. He could sense the long corrupted tendrils of insanity creep up beside him as Karen entered the room again, annoyed. She looked at Matt’s hand in shock, completely confused about what’d happened, she quickly left the room. 

Matt stood, mostly naked, and began on his way to the bathroom. Karen bumped into him as he tried to leave his room, medical supplies flying from her hands; she allowed a small scream of shock to escape her mouth. 

“Get back in bed.” Karen said, after picking the medical supplies from the floor. 

Matt stood in the doorway, his eyes blankly staring at the space above her head. “I can take care of it.” He said softly. 

“There’s fucking glass in the cuts, just let me help you!” she almost yelled but managed to keep her voice down. Karen pushed Matt back into the room. She led him to the bed and sat him down. He was silent, tears welled in his eyes and he wasn’t sure why. Karen began removing the glass from Matt’s cut up hand, then cleaning it. He was able to keep the tears from falling. 

“I could have handled this on my own.”

“You can’t even handle getting high on that antiquated shit alone.” She began applying the bandage. “You should really slow down on that stuff.” Matt didn’t respond. “I come in here in the morning and you’ve already had a glass…”

“Why do you come here?”

Karen stopped what she was doing, stared into the almond shaped orbs of white. She didn’t quite know what to make of the statement. After Matt was released from the hospital Karen started dropping in to clean up after Matt, feed him, clean him, and most importantly, love him. The two had been going out for about three months prior to Matt losing his sight. Karen stepped up to the plate with magnificent grace and dignity. So, when Matt asked her the question, she made an insult of it. She stood, letting the bandage unravel at her feet.

“What are you talking about? I come here because I want to help you.” She said, before walking to the door and turning on her heels.  “You goddamn asshole. If you think I come here so you can just insult me, then fuck me like some street corner slut you have another thing coming!” 

Matt stood quickly, furry in his blind eyes, “I never said that, Karen.”

“It’s the shit you don’t say that’s more fucked up.” This time she yelled

“I’m sorry.” Is all he could manage. 

“Oh, yeah. So you just apologize and what? Am I supposed to feel sorry for you? Take all your shit then brush it off?” Matt remained quiet. “You just want to me fall into your arms?” Karen walked forward to push Matt on the bed, anger streaming from her cold, blue eyes. Matt suddenly saw the outline of what he knew Karen to look like. He smiled for a moment, caught one of Karen’s flailing hands. She looked up at him, her bright blues reflecting the beating sun, scowled, and started slapping Matt in the head. “You cocky bastard.” 

The thoughts in Matt’s head raced a mile a minute. What was that? Was it a flashback? A hallucination? Can the blind sometimes catch glimpses of the world? Whatever the case, he would have to do plenty of research. Matt grabbed Karen’s other hand from the air and wrapped her arms around him. Her pallid cheek met Matt’s hard chest and for a while she was still angry. Then she noticed that their heartbeats were in-synch, then she wasn’t so angry.

The son of a priest, Mander, and an ocean biologist, Azur, and nephew to the once ruler of the Inhumans - Karnak was born into royalty. He suffered no troubles or aggression from others during his upbringing, and the advanced and mystifying machinery littered throughout the palace of Attilan were made readily available to him. Karnak proved from a young age how naturally smart he was, mastering the technicalities of such machines quickly and delving into various subsects of learning, such as geography, mathematics, and combat, while others his own age were still struggling with basic science and language. He studied in his father's religious Tower of Wisdom, where alongside general subjects Karnak was taught of cosmic deities and the religious outlook on factors such as chance, morality, and many others. Karnak was tattooed heavily on his forehead around to the back of his neck before his teenage years, showing apparent signs that he was a member of Mander's Order of Wisdom and a man of good morale and empathy. Though not entirely believing it as his father and other pious individuals did, the teachings still had a drastic effect on Karnak's life and pattern of thinking. Though very intelligent and skilled in fighting, Karnak was relatively anti-social. He chose not to attend mass events or communicate with the general populace of the Great Refuge, instead only speaking to his family - and he spoke little even to them. Karnak believed only he himself could understand his ways of thinking and progression, and so he decided not to study other people's various personalities or levels of intelligence.  <br/><br/>Cataclysmic events occurred for Karnak on his eighteenth year. His mother died mysteriously in an ambitious oceanic foray, further severing Karnak's void of sociality. Azur has been one of the few that Karnak truly trusted and loved, and he vowed then to discover one day what had happened to his mother out at sea. It was customary for Inhumans with known latent genes to undergo the process of Terrigenesis, that is, being exposed to ancient mists of an unknown origin to all but the ruler of the Inhumans. This process changed the subject, whether marginally or drastically, in both physical or mental ways, ultimately revealing the Inhuman's true form. Some were awarded wings, or had their mental ability greatly reduced, or were granted extra-sensory sight in return for losing the use of their natural eyes. Karnak was happy as he was, but due to the compulsory tradition he acquiesced and endured Terrigenesis.   <br/><br/>Karnak emerged an enhanced being. He had acquired greatly increased strength, speed, and endurance. His reflexes had been unnaturally improved, allowing him to anticipate and counter almost any move in a combat situation, and to go along with it Karnak became much more flexible, bestowing upon him moderate levels of contortion and acrobatics. Most importantly, however, was the skill of stress point detection acquired by Karnak. This was an extra-sensory ability that revealed to Karnak any object or person's greatest area of weakness, be it physical or psychological. From this Karnak could apply pressure to the point, thereby destroying presumably unbreakable materials, or breaking down a person mentally with mere words. Karnak worked on and mastered this skill, and the mental discipline he attuned to it made it virtually effortless for Karnak to use. He changed finally in his facial area. Though it didn't increase his formidable intelligence, Karnak's skull grew upwards, bestowing upon him a huge forehead. This change erased any hair he had, though it strangely affected his tattoos - stretching and morphing them to match the shape of his altered head.  After Terrigenesis, Karnak was placed in a position of importance in the Inhuman hierarchy. He was a supervisor and benefactor to the scientific advancements of Attilan, and he was prominent in his father's Order of Wisdom also. Karnak was one of the first notified if a physical threat approached the Great Refuge, he could then utilise his unbelievable combat abilities out in the field.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#007236"">Powers and Abilities</font>:</span> Enhanced strength, speed, durability, endurance, flexibility, stress point detection, formidable intelligence.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#007236"">Sample Story Arcs</font>:</span> <br/>Death at Sea - Focusing on the unrevealed reasons behind Azur, Karnak's mother's, death.

Everything.</span> <br/><br/>Karnak sat cross-legged in the centre of an antique carpet, woven ages ago by deceased Inhuman seamstresses. The embroidery detailed the process of Terrigenesis, showing a naked man and then a woman pass through the shrouding Terrigen Mists. The man emerged a king, regal in his appearance, aura and mentality. The woman emerged a great beast, one resembling the fabled monsters of humanity's past. If this were a human creation, the king would have been struck by fear, naturally threatened by one whom was too different to himself. The king would have slain the beast and be honoured for it. However, this was an Inhuman creation, the society that embraced diversity and were enhanced by it. The detailing ended with the king and the female beast retaining their love for each other and exiting the Terrigen chamber hand in claw. Karnak sat still, unmoving, his eyes closed and in a state of meditation. This time was part of the precious few hours that Karnak had free in the day - his position required constant reliance in many situations and so he was forever on call. The Inhuman's large cranium was constantly at work also. He indirectly picked up multiple detections from all objects in the small room. The extra-sensory skill granted to him through his Terrigenesis never slept, especially not since the mental honing Karnak had subjected himself to in order to improve his abilities. It was a ubiquitous influx of thought that Karnak had had to deal with. The middle of the front right leg of the chair. The centre point of the tapestry. Below the faint crack in the large wooden door. And Karnak himself... well, the first point of the mental improvement had been directed towards a passive immunity for himself to the power. Karnak preferred not to know his own inherent weakness, because if he did it would haunt him - and he would be unable to do anything until he fixed this problem. Yet, everything has a weakness, and everything has to have a weakness, so Karnak could not do that to himself. Before he could think any further, a knock reverberated from the door through the room.   <br/>""Come."" Karnak spoke softly, he knew that the Inhuman on the other side of the door would hear him. The large wood door opened slightly, and a man in the guise of a young child slipped in. Terrigenesis had gifted him two gaping holes at the sides of his head, and now he heard most everything, no matter how quiet. <br/>""Master Karnak, your presence is requested at the Council with the other Order members."" The man's voice had risen in pitch since his transformation, effectively travelling back through time to the man's childhood. <br/>""Tell them I will not be attending this pointless convergence. Honestly, why we have to meet every three days, I-"" <br/>""With all due respect, Master, they... they were quite insistent.""  Karnak swung his head around. The man child avoided his eyesight. He had been definitely more confident before his transformation. <br/>""Now that,"" The Inhuman said, swiftly rising to his feet, ""Is peculiar.""</div></div>"

From what he has gathered from service files, he has served with the military and S.H.I.E.L.D. all of his adult life. He served in the US military in 1990s, particularly in the Gulf War. When he showed a perchance for stealth and close-combat in the field, he graduated from basic infantry to Covert Ops over his tenure and upon returning home from service, was offered a place at S.H.I.E.L.D. where he ran several successful missions. His most recent run was an undercover stint in the Crime Syndicate in New York, where he gathered valuable intel on the gang’s current objectives. Prior to the incident that lead to his condition, he had just begun serving as S.H.I.E.L.D.’s chief hand-to-hand trainer.</div></div>

Masters volunteered to be the test subject. Repeated testing showed that Masters had developed the ability to memorise and duplicate any person’s movements merely by watching them. The side effects of the experiment were that this memorisation ability came at the cost of his personal memory. Masters began forgetting where he was, what the testing was for, even who he was. In order to bypass this, S.H.I.E.L.D. inserted a syntho-organic, micro-data storage device into his brain, that was linked to it but could not store or erase new memories from it, only access the ones stored on it. Masters has direct access to this device so he can manage what specific memories he retains. As a result, Masters requested that he put back on active duty under the new code name: Taskmaster.</div></div>

Photographic Reflex Memory: Ability to duplicate almost any physical act that he sees done by someone else only once. This includes combat movements, sleight of hand, practice-based exercises (e.g. piano), marksmanship, archery, gymnastics and aerobatics. A side effect of the photographic reflex is that the speed at which the techniques are observed can affect his movements, increasing in velocity, giving him a burst of near-superhuman speed. He has also discovered that he can copy the vocal muscle movements of others to mimic their voice patterns. 
2.	Superior Athletic Capabilities: Taskmaster is a naturally athletic individual who has trained his body to near peak-perfection, even rivalling many superpowered heroes and villains in terms of athleticism and physical conditioning.
3.	Expert Tactician: His years of Army, Covert and S.H.I.E.L.D. service have shown Masters a myriad of different tactical strategies and procedures.
4.	Equipment: Taskmaster utilises a variety of S.H.I.E.L.D. tech, depending on the mission at hand. No matter the mission, he always carries the same equipment: a pair of SW1911, custom-built in black often with silencers attached and a modern double-edged shortsword, based on the classical xiphos used by the Greeks, updated with a modern grip and metal blade,a mix of titanium and secondary adamantium for cost-effectiveness. He also wears a custom bodysuit uniform, made of a prototype fibre mix similar to Kevlar but much thinner and elastic to allow easier hand-to-hand combat. Taskmaster made some personal modifications to the suit, reinforcing the forearm and shin pads to allow harder strikes and protect better when blocking. He also added a face mask to hide his identity, induce fear in his rivals and because one of his pupils thought “thought it looked cool”.</div></div>

Full Physical Duplication: Taskmaster cannot copy a feat that requires a power to accomplish. E.g. he may observe someone lifting a huge weight and be able to duplicate the correct movements but cannot replicate the superhuman strength to fully accomplish the act.
2.	Energy/Projectile Duplication: Cannot duplicate any energy/projectile capabilities for the same underlying reasons.
3.	Underlying Disciplines: He can mimic certain actions but not actions that occur after or are connected to the action. For example, he can mimic a dive into water but not how to swim (unless he observes the swimming action) or mimicking a song that he observed on the piano but he cannot compose his own as he does not know the musical scales.
4.	Random Amnesia: When Taskmaster copies a new action, it copies over old personal memories (except those saved in his organo-drive) However the organo-drive can only hold a small amount of information as, due to the intricacy of the surgical procedure, the device could not be that large. So if Taskmaster learns new information, then duplicates a new action, this may copy over the new information. The override is random in what memories it goes over.</div></div>

I feel Taskmaster fits into the former. I became fascinated with Taskmaster after learning of him through the Deadpool comics. I feel he would be an excellent character to play in the roleplay as his backstory is very vague and he is one character who has not been revisited and rehashed to death, meaning many avenues have not been explored and I intend to do this.</div></div>

He tried raising his arms, feeling they were heavy. He looked down and saw straps wrapped around his wrists, securing him to the metallic chair. He tugged helplessly, the chair bolted to the floor, a blank steel table in front of him. Panic rose in his chest, his head darting side to side and taking in his surroundings. 

	The room was dark, covered in shadows except for the area around the table, which was glowing with a white light, highlighting every feature in his eye line. His breathing quickened with each new question that crossed his mind:
<span class=""bb-i"">Where am I?</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Who’s taken me? Why?</span>
	Then a more terrifying question popped up, causing him to go rigid with fear:
<span class=""bb-i"">Who am <span class=""bb-b"">I</span>?</span>
	That’s when the screaming started. He tugged and rocked in the immovable chair, screaming for help at the top of his lungs.

“Help!! Someone help me please?! Where am I?!”

A door behind him opened, flooding the wall in front of him with light. A mirrored panel stretching the wall gave him a glimpse of himself. He had short, jet black hair and a stark red bruise on his cheek. The door closed just as quickly as it opened. A sharp set of footsteps approached him from behind, stepping around him and sat down across from him.

	The man who sat in front of him was quite plain. He was wearing a dark suit, white under shirt and red tie. His hair was combed back and he wore a small United States flag lapel on his jacket collar. He looked him straight in the eye and smiled lightly.

“Do you know who I am?”

He tugged at his bonds as he begged for his freedom.

“Please, just let me go. Who are you?”

The strange man continued to speak.

“Do you know who you are?”

He began to panic as the strange man somehow knew what had happened to him, probably even caused it somehow.

“What did you do to me? Can you reverse it? Please…”

He continued to waffle for his life, his release or anything he wanted. The strange man laid out the file that was in his hands and watched him continue to struggle. After several minutes, he placed his hands on the table and quietly said just 3 words.

“Tony, please stop.”

Tony stopped struggling in his chair, staring at the man sitting across from him. The stranger had said the name so calmly and assuredly, it sparked something in his mind, a sense of…familiarity. 

“Is…is that my name? Tony? Who are you? Where am I?!”

“I’m Agent Jacob Strzeszewski. I’m the Head of Special Internal Operations for S.H.I.E.L.D. You’re currently at the Triskelion, the operations centre of S.H.I.E.L.D. Do you remember how you got here?”

Tony shook his head. That’s when he heard a noise behind him, a soft shuffling of feet. There was another person in the room with them. They moved around behind Jacob, sticking to the shadows. Tony called at the man in the shadows.

“Please, I just want to know what’s going on?!”

The man stepped out, the light flooding every feature. The man was grizzled, his face covered in old scratches and scars. A long, black leather jacket draped his shoulders and trailed along the floor as he stepped out from the darkness. His jet black hair had the vaguest trace of grey and a large black eye patch covered his right eye. The uncovered left was fixed on Tony.

“You’ve been through a rough patch, kid, but you’re safe now.”

“Who are you? What are you going to do to me?”

The man in the jacket smirked, reached forward and slid the open file across to Tony. The file had his picture and his full name with a classified stamp: ‘Anthony Masters’

“The name’s Colonel Nick J. Fury…and we’re going to give you a second chance.”</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Bio &amp; Background</span>
At what some considered the new height of Attilan culture and societal stability, two of the greatest and most powerful minds bore a child, one of limitless potential and ability even so young as he was. His mother Rynda, Director and first chair of the prenatal care center and Queen of the Inhumans, had organized a project to subject her unborn child, still but an embryo, to the mutagenic effects of Terrigenisis. The baby was born with the unwieldy ability to absorb and disperse the electron energy around him. In order to protect the baby and others around him, Blackagar was put into a hyper isolation chamber and settled into an energy harness. This is where he would be raised for the next 15 years in relative ease, learning to control his powers along with everything else the Inhuman heir apparent learns. This is where his story of achievement and success ends. 

Unbeknownst to the prodigal son, sheltered deep within the Attilan Royal chambers, he had a brother, indeed, a twin brother. Maximus was paraded about as a trophy. He was smart, powerful, sophisticated, and docile, easily brought out during speeches or feasts. Everyone knew, however, that Maximus was just the opening act, simply an appetizer for the main course. Indeed, everyone knew this, except Blackagar himself. 

Max became thoroughly unhappy with his lot in life, his hampered dreams and aspirations. He’d been doing research, using his uncanny powers of mind control and astral projection in order to delve deep into the darkest secrets Attilan had to offer. And at the center of it, he found the Kree. Maximus conspired throughout his adolescence to find some way to usurp his brother’s position, and perhaps even that of his parent’s. Max learned that the tales and legends of Attilan being the Great Refuge, a totally isolated nation, were complete fabrications. The Inhumans and the Humans roamed the lands together at one point, indeed, some still do. So why should they be allowed to flourish beyond the confines of the bubble and Max could not? So, he devised a terrible plot to exploit this web of lies. If the people of Attilan were content with delusions and false pretenses, Maximus could provide better than anyone. Max went about signaling the Kree to the Inhuman’s location. He did so in such a way that the Kree would be at a disadvantage when they arrived, doubling down on his own people by warning them before-hand. When the exploratory forces of the Kree landed in the Atlanitc they were met by a bevy of some of the most powerful members of the Royal family and their companions. Max was among them. He controlled the battle like a marionettist, making sure both his mother and father were critically wounded, but also making sure the Kree were forced to flee. With the first strike of the invasion out of the way, the King and Queen in dire conditions, and Maximus coming out victorious, all that is left is to occlude Blackagar. With each attentive and caring mind clouded by Maximus’ incredible mental abilities, he is able to take the throne at the age of 16. With this seat of power Maximus is able to keep his parents disabled and unconscious while his brother is locked in a cell no one knows of. For five years he rules, and no one seems to notice that he’s not supposed to be there. Perhaps because of how easy everything is. Perhaps it’s because the Kree threat is behind them and in front of them at equal measure. Max cares not as he sips wine from his gilded cup in the throne room. He makes trips to the surface every few months without anyone noticing—well, almost anyone. The irony of the situation is that Maximus revealed himself and his plot to his brother, letting him rot in the cell with only his thoughts and a few scraps a week to feed him. Any attempt Maximus made to control his brother failed, as did his attempts to impose amnesia. 

For five years Blackagar lives in a darkly lit chamber, fastened tightly into an energy harness. He meditates in order to stay calm, retrieve sweet memories of when his parents would come to visit him. For five years he lives in exile in the Royal chambers. All the while he is periodically taken care of by his first cousin Medusa, a beautiful girl with the sweetest caring eyes, and rolling hills of crimson hair. On Blackagar’s 21st birthday Medusa is sent to feed the young man, usually aided by Maximus, who wipes her mind afterwards. This time, however, Maximus rushes off on an expedition to the Antarctic, leaving the two together without surveillance. On this day Blackagar will finally be free. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and abilities</span>
Ambient Particle &amp; Electron Harnessing: Black Bolt's primary superhuman ability is the power to harness electrons. The speech center of his brain contains a unique organic mechanism that's able to generate an unknown particle that interacts with the electrons he absorbs to create certain phenomena that are determined by his mental control.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">		Quasi-Sonic Scream: Black Bolt's most devastating offensive weapon, and one of the phenomena based upon the particle interaction, is his actual voice. A whisper can level a city, cause distant dormant volcanoes to become active once more, shake entire continents apart and generate tremors on the far side of the planet. A hypersonic shout has been said to generate enough force to destroy planets. Due to the constant and extreme danger posed by his voice, he has undergone rigorous mental training to prevent himself from uttering even the smallest sound, even while asleep. Recently it has been shown that Black Bolt's scream is tied into his emotions, especially anger. This in turn would mean that the power of his scream would depend on his emotional state in at least some way. It would explain the somewhat significant difference of the power released by his quasi-sonic scream.
	Particle &amp; Electron Channeling: Black Bolt wears a metallic, fork-shaped antenna upon his brow that allows him to focus and channel his powers in more directed and less destructive ways. This antenna monitor's the speech center of his brain and allows him to direct quantities of the unknown particles to create controlled phenomena, such as enhancing his physical strength beyond his normal limits. He can also channel all the available energy he has into one arm for a single, massively powerful punch called the Master Blow. The exertion from this, however, taxes his ability to employ the energy to its full power for a short time.
	Particle &amp; Electron Manipulation: Black Bolt can also direct the unknown particle outwards without the use of his vocal chords. He can route the particles through his arms and create small yet vastly powerful blasts of concussive force. He can also form a field of highly active electrons around his body with a wave of his hand. This field can deflect projectiles. Black Bolt can also create enough iteration between the electron and particle energies to generate fields solid enough for him to travel over.
	Matter &amp; Energy Manipulation: Through an unknown method, Black Bolt has shown numerous times that he has the ability to manipulate matter and energy to an unknown degree. He has shown the ability to transmute the elements, turn water into ice, create multiple toys out of thin air by re-arranging the molecular structure, and was able to block the powers of others through his abilities; in turn denying them the access to their abilities.
	Telepathy: Black Bolt has strong psychic resistance, as evident when he was able to easily resist the mental abilities of his powerful brother.
	Anti-Gravitational Flight: Black Bolt can also harness the unknown particles his brain generates to interact with electrons to create anti-gravitons that enable him to defy gravity. By emitting a jet of rapidly moving particle / electron interaction by-product while enveloped by anti-gravitons. The anti-graviton field also serves to protect Black Bolt from the detrimental effects of rapid movement through the atmosphere although it's not necessarily needed.</div></div>

Inhuman Physiology: Like all Inhumans, Black Bolt's natural physiology grants him a number of superhuman physical attributes but because of the genetic tampering before birth, Black Bolt's physical abilities are significantly superior to most other members of his race.

He is able to lift about 1 ton. However, he can augment his physical strength by channeling the necessary particle energy through his body. 
	Superhuman Speed: Black Bolt can run and move at speeds that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Stamina: Black Bolt's Inhuman musculature generates less fatigue toxins than the musculature of a normal human, even the finest human athlete. At his peak, he can exert himself for several days before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him.
	Superhuman Durability: Black Bolt's body is incredibly resistant to all forms of physical damage. Black Bolt is resistant to great impact forces, such as falling from a height of several stories that would severely injure or kill a human being unharmed. Black Bolt is capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, such as the cold in space, or the heat from re-entry.
	Superhuman Agility: Black Bolt's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Reflexes: Black Bolt's reflexes are beyond those of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Longevity: Like all Inhumans, Black Bolt has a natural lifespan that is at least twice the average lifespan of a human being.</div></div>

Medusa’s writhing plumage is shocked by the bright light, as it almost always is. She holds a silver tray in her delicate hands as a tremor passes through her body. She knows this place, her hair knows this place, yet she cannot draw that image from her memory, as if it is blocked from her. The eerie feeling followers behind her as she opens the door with a loud click and walks down the long hall. 

Blackagar opened one eye when he heard the sound of the door open, allowing his cold blue orb to shine in the darkness. . He could hear the footsteps, heeled and measured, nervous though, there was no second set. He knew who it was and he lifted himself from his meditation position, knees bent under him, and stood straight. Medusa appeared behind the glass pane that kept him separated from the outside. Her green eyes met his blues for a moment and she shivered somewhere inside. She coyly made her way to the door and placed the contents of the tray in the compartment there, which would subsequently deliver it to Blackagar. He ignored the food and stared at her, looking around to see if Maximus had joined her. He hadn’t. 

Blackagar’s black hair reached his ears and he was growing a little beard, but his blue and white harness seemed pristine. Medusa avoided eye contact for a little while, but decided that she had to look, she couldn’t bare not returning a gaze so powerful, so intent. He spoke volumes with his eyes. The pain and the anger crossed his cheeks like a scar and the sadness filled his eyes. Medusa couldn’t bare the hurt he seemed to be in, her hair reacted to him as well; each strand seemed to want to touch him. She lifted her hand to the glass and offered a sympathetic eye. Blackagar lifted his hand as well. They stared into eachother’s eyes for longer than Medusa had ever looked at anyone. She’d fallen asleep in his gaze. Then his eyes flicked, and he blinked. His boyish face came up with a troublesome look and his eyes darted off to his right. Medusa looked off to her left, exactly where he’d looked, and she noticed the keypad there. 

She understood what he wanted, then felt a pang of disappointment. “I don’t…” she started.

Blackagar shifted his head only an inch, forced his palm against the glass, and his affects changed totally. She understood what he was saying then too, <span class=""bb-i"">”I will help,”</span> is what he’d said, <span class=""bb-i"">”I will help you.”</span>

His father, Harold, was a chronic alcoholic who would beat Clint’s mother, his brother, Barney, and Clint himself.  His mother was no better, as she was withdrawn and unsympathetic, seeing her husband’s abuse of her children as a victory because she was not the one at the receiving ends of Harold Barton’s blows.  However, tragedy struck (or poetic justice, as Comic Vine describes it), when both Mr. and Mrs. Barton died in a car accident while Harold Barton was well over the lawful BAC.<br/><br/>	As a result of their parents’ deaths, Clint and Barney were placed into the foster system.  The Barton boys, as they were called, jumped from foster home to foster home until they were received by a certain Buck Chisholm.  Unlike the previous foster homes, the two Barton boys felt welcomed and desired in the Chisholm residence.  In fact, Buck and his friend, Jacques Duquesne, even allowed the two Barton boys to participate and even train for Renaissance fairs (or faires, as Buck and Jacques put it).  Clint got particular attention from the two friends, as they saw real potential in Clint’s archery ability, much to the chagrin of his brother, Barney, who felt that Clint was now absorbing all the lime light from their new foster parent.  Things began to look good for Clint.<br/><br/>	That was, until a few years later Clint stumbled upon Buck and Jacques’ scheme of ripping off the fair.  The two friends discovered that Clint was privy to the plot and they tried to get him to remain silent.  When Clint refused, as it was the ‘right’ thing to do, Buck and Jacques brutalized him and left him for dead.  If it was not for one of the other Renaissance fair actors finding the young Barton boy that night, Clint might have died that night.  Once this abuse was reported to child services, the Barton boys were immediately removed from the Chisholm custody (Buck and Jacques had gone on the run prior to this) and they were placed in another foster home.<br/><br/>	As time passed, Clint and Barney grew further apart from each other since Barney believed that Clint had betrayed their former foster parent, even though Barney was not receiving as much attention from them as Clint was.  Once they went to college, they went their separate ways.  Clint attended the University of Iowa (the Hawkeyes!) and continued to practice his archery skills, even joining a club team while at the University of Iowa.  After he graduated from college, he was approached by S.H.I.E.L.D. and <span class=""bb-b"">[SECTION REDACTED – S.H.I.E.L.D.

Through practice and dedication, Hawkeye has mastered the art of archery, allowing him to make shots that normal people could never make.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">“Bottomless Quiver”</span>: From Taser-Arrows to Ice-Arrows to Boomerang Arrows (just for the laughs), with the resources at Clint’s disposal due to his employment at S.H.I.E.L.D., there is no limit to the kinds (and number) of arrows that Clint can use.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Peak Human Endurance and Strength</span>: Clint, due to his S.H.IE.L.D. training, is a fit and strong as any modern athlete.  While this might not be enough to overcome superhumans, Clint is athletic enough to overcome the average person.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Expert Acrobat</span>: Combined with his S.H.I.E.L.D. conditioning, Hawkeye can perform acrobatic feats that most ‘normal’ people could only dream of completing.

ASSEMBLE! / Thunderbolts<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span><br/>	Hawkeye and Mockingbird stood waiting in the briefing room.  These two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stood out like a sore thumb amongst the group of the other agents, since they wore colorful costumes instead of the standard gray and black shades that the other agents usually wore.  Hawkeye’s attire event stood out even more than Mockingbird’s because his costume was almost entirely purple, while the later at least had dark blue accenting the white portion of her outfit.  “Hey, it helps prevent friendly-fire!”  Hawkeye would usually say in his defense of their fashion decisions.  But in spite of the flamboyance of their apparel, Clint and Bobbi still got the job done.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, another agent walked into the briefing room, holding several folders that he intended to issue out to the others once he had entered.  Once the files and folders were passed around, the man clicked a button on a small remote that he held in his hand, causing the screen behind himself to activate.   “Here is your next assignment, ladies and gentlemen.”  Agent Coulson announced to his fellow agents with a confident, but calm voice.  “This is David Cannon.  While we do not yet know whether the X-Gene granted him powers or if he used some other means, Mr. Cannon is capable of creating a localized tornado around himself.  Local authorities have been unable to stop him, so it is up to us to apprehend him.  Are there any questions before we set out?”<br/><br/>	“I have one.”  Hawkeye yelled out, grinning at what he intended to say, “Are we about ready to go on a man hunt after the Tasmanian Devil?”<br/><br/>	“Any other questions?”  Rolling his eyes, Coulson obviously ignored Hawkeye’s remark about how the powers of this supervillain mirrored the abilities of the Warner Bros. cartoon character.  “If not, everyone is dismissed.”</div>"

Bill was a cruel, abusive man, a man who only lived for the public perception, for power. He was a bastard of a man, who regularly drank, and beat Wilson and Helen. Eventually, he took it upon himself to run for city council, when Fisk was 12. He became increasingly stressed, and took it out on Wilson and Helen, and in the fit of rage, Wilson killed his own father to save his mother. Helen covered it up, and Wilson was sent away to live with relatives in upstate New York, on a farm. For the next several years, Wilson lived and worked in that small town, hating every living second of it. When he was 18, he left home and went to college, where he joined the boxing team. Earning a degree in political science, he graduated summa cum laude, traveling abroad to Asia. There, he began the next phase of his life. <br/><br/>|Travels abroad|<br/>It's unclear, according to the public, exactly what happened during his travels abroad in China and Japan, but what IS known, is that Fisk Industries started here, acquiring funds from investors with ties to the Yakuza and Chinese Triads, though nothing that could be concretely proven. Fisk then used these funds to start his enterprises from abroad, managing his business via telephone. It was here, in Asia, as well, that Wilson began his criminal organization, learning from the bottom up how to run organized crime, as well as innovating how it is run by his Political Science training.  After building up Fisk industries as a multibillion dollar business, and several unspecified dealings in Asia, Fisk returned home, a wealthy man. <br/><br/>|Descent into Crime|<br/>Fisk had been away for years now, a smart, wealthy businessman. And he <span class=""bb-i"">loved</span> his city, after years away, but was horrified by what his city had become. It was filthy, dying, desecrated, and Fisk knew he needed to save his city. But in order to do so, he couldn't just be a businessman, he had to dip his hands into the filth in order to wash his city clean. So he began expanding into organized crime, focusing first on his home of Hell's kitchen. Creating a small, but loyal gang, he ruled them with a fair, but sadistic fist; Failure wasn't tolerated, and neither were mistakes. Success was rewarded, Failure punished. Simple. Yet, five months later, his gang referred to him as Kingpin, and he was more than powerful; owning a senator, judges, and a large majority of the cops in Hell's kitchen. He truly was in control. But he knew even on his own, he couldn't get everything he wanted accomplished. So he began making alliances, deals with Madame Gao of the chinese triads, and Nobu of the Japanese yakuza. The Russians came in soon after, albeit much to Fisk's displeasure. <br/><br/>And this is where we meet him, Five months into being the Kingpin, Five years into being a covert criminal. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): <span class=""bb-b"">Expert Tactician</span>: Wilson has managed to cause a fair deal of the criminal activity of Hell's Kitchen for years without revealing his identity to the public.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Expert Combatant</span>: Fisk is a man of immense brute strength. He can lift a grown man into the air with a single arm. Despite having no formal combat training, Fisk's size and pure muscle make him a very formidable opponent. He was capable of using his strength to beat men to death with only a few hits. He is also strong enough to kill a man with only a few punches. He is also a trained boxer. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Multilingual</span>: Fisk is fluent in English, Mandarin, and Japanese.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: YEAR ONE: This story arc introduces Kingpin to the MU, based in New York, slowly forging his grip from the ashes of his predecessor, and dealing with new ways of handling the rising of both superhero and villain alike, while still maintaining a chokehold on street crime.<br/>DEVIL HIS DUE: Introduces Wilson Fisk to Matthew Miyahara, the blind lawyer of Hell's Kitchen, and Daredevil both as Daredevil's own story arc culminates into a meeting with the Kingpin of Crime.<br/>TOMBSTONE: Has Kingpin dealing with the return of the Rose, now joined by Tombstone.<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>The phone rings in the middle of the night, or rather, three in the morning, shrill and insistent. Fisk's eyes flutter open, and flip open the phone with a practiced ease; Late night calls are to be expected, a common occurrence for someone in his line of work. He rises from satin sheets and flips his phone open, expecting the other person to talk first. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Good morning, sir.</span>"" <br/><br/>""Good Morning, Wesley."" Fisk's voice is low and commanding, a baritone, but not too deep. He speaks as if he's not asking for, but rather expecting respect, even from his right hand and personal assistant, Mr. James Wesley. Were one to pay attention, one would actually see that Fisk even thinks of Wesley as his friend. Possibly his only friend. It doesn't matter, either way, as Wilson has never been particularly good at making friends. He waits patiently as Wesley informs him of the morning brief; events that've happened with his organization while he slumbered. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Sir, nothing much on the Triad's end. Gao's deliveries are on time, yet down 9%. Nobu and his men want more of the docks. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for more specific tastes. THey want a clear path to 33rd street. The Russians have been making quite a bit of fuss recently, however. They want a meeting with you personally. Today.</span>"" <br/><br/>Wilson Fisk gives an audible sigh, and lets his brain sift through the information. Nobu...the more they asked, the more he felt like Nobu should be eliminated. But the Yakuza were men of honor, of integrity, and they'd sworn him what he asked for, in exchange for what they asked of him. And the Russians...they were a different matter entirely. <br/><br/>""Give the Japanese what they want, and send the Russians to the usual meeting place. I'll be there at ten."" He flips the phone closed and does as he always does to start the day, making an egg roll and garnish, picking out a dark grey suit, and adding cufflinks. By the time he leaves his penthouse apartment, it's an hour and five minutes to nine o'clock. <br/><br/>It takes him another hour to reach the building, as is usual with New York City traffic. The building is actually a garage, one owned and operated by a subsidiary of Fisk industries, paid for by an offshore account in the caymans. His Escalade pulls into the parking lot, and he stepped out, a black overcoat buttoned up over a dark grey outfit. The two Russians before him are the Brothers. Anatoly and Vladimir. One dark haired and short, the other bleach blond and tall. Twins, they even share the same tattoos. It is Anatoly who speaks up first, differing in his demeanor than Vladimir. ""Good Morning, Mister Fisk. We want to-"" he is cut off by Vladimir, the angry brother. ""We want some F---- ANSWERS, you bald idiot."" <br/><br/>Anatoly is quick to backtrack, hoping to cover up his brother's mistakes with boot kissing. ""What he means to say is that Madame Gao's deliveries have been...less than usual."" It is here that Fisk speaks up, calm and collected. ""By nine percent, according to my numbers. The real question I should be asking here, is why did you involve me instead of Madame Gao herself? Unless, of course, you're afraid of her. Fear, I find, is a completely natural response to someone as well respected as Mme.Gao. So, you involve me because you don't want the reprisal to blow back on you in its entirety. You're asking the Chinese to up their production by nine percent and get their product out on the same time. And as of late, it's not entirely feasible with all these...costumed vigilantes cavorting about. So here's what you're going to do. You're going to pull back men from the street corners and concentrate your pushers to a single city block. Limited supply, limited demand. You will cut off your current regulars in this part of town and raise the price of a single purchase by 10 percent. Or I will be back to personally handle things."" <br/><br/>Fisk gets back into the escalade, and as they drive off, he turns back behind tinted windows to look upon the faces of Anatoly and Vladimir. What he sees makes him smirk. Anatoly has a look of fear and respect, while Vlad is simply angry beyond belief. <br/></div>"

The result of these experiments was a cure to his cancer in the form of an incredibly enhanced healing factor which was able to continuously fight against the disease, keeping him alive, but only in the same disfigured state he was in at the point were his healing factor was triggered for the first time. After several successful missions for Department K, and some unsuccessful ones, Deadpool decided to branch out on his own, seeking the fame, money, glory and money the life of a superpowered mercenary could bring.<br/><font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span></font><br/><font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">Healing Factor</span></font><br/>Deadpool's body is nigh indestructible and he can regenerate from any injury, in fact at one point his lost body parts were successfully stitched back together to create an 'evil' clone of himself by his crazy, stalker 'girlfriend'. His healing is considerably slower in operation than some other mutants, notably Wolverine, and it usually takes several days for Deadpool to regenerate lost limbs and other appendages. He can survive decapitation, but requires at least 17 minutes to regain consciousness after his head has regenerated, and usually requires considerably longer to be back to fighting form.<br/>The healing factor's ability to repair neurological damage grants Wade an immunity to mind control and extreme resistance to psychic probing, although it also causes memory loss and adds to his already highly unstable mental state. It also rapidly purges his body or toxins, poisons and medications, making only extremely high doses effective against him and inebriation very, very expensive. <br/><font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">Killy Stuff</span></font><br/>Deadpool has considerable experience dealing with all forms of weaponry; including swords, pistols, assault rifles, sniper rifles, grenades, missile launchers, nuclear weapons, alien technology and chimichangas (if you don't consider those weapons, try using the bathroom after him one morning!) It's very rare to catch him without at least two pistols, two katana, an assault rifle and a sniper rifle in his possession. Notably he cannot pilot aircraft of any kind, but has been known to operate space vehicles as long as someone helps him stick the right 'operational guidance' stickers on the controls to remind him which ones shoot the guns, and which let him point the guns in the right direction.<br/><font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">Fifth Dimensional Awareness</span></font><br/>Deadpool is fully aware that he's a fictional character and assures me that if you don't let him join this RP he'll be paying your mother a visit with his own form of house warming gift <span class=""bb-s"">(it's napalm!)</span> <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">No, it's not.

Especially Taskmaster. Escalating the situation in order to prove he's the best Deadpool will pull off the impossible, or die trying. Again.<br/><font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-i"">A Face Not Even A Mother Could Love</span></font><br/>Cursed with the mutilated face he had when his healing factor was granted to him, Wade's fully aware how repulsive he truly looks.

The new series of <span class=""bb-i"">Contest of Kings</span> had just started up and Wade was sure they'd be announcing a royal wedding soon, which meant yet another bloodbath was on the cards. Laid back on his recliner he flicked the channels until the opening credits sprung onto the screen, the clockwork countryside rolling past as the theme music started up.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Bom Bom Da Da Bom Bom Da Da Bom Bom...""</span></font> He began to sing, sitting forwards with excitement.<br/><br/>Suddenly his magnificent rendition was silenced by the buzzing of the doorbell. Peering over to it, his eyebrow raised under his mask Wade asked himself if they were expecting anyone. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00aeef"">How should we know?</font></span> He asked back, <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#39b54a"">You never tell us anything.</font></span><br/><br/>Quickly jumping up from his seat he stomped over to the door, pulling out his trustiest Glock as he did. Whoever it was wouldn't be much of an interruption for long. Peering through the peephole, his pistol levelled at the door, Wade carefully eyed his uninvited guest, only to see the pizza delivery guy waiting patiently on the doorstep. <font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">Is that the usual guy?</span></font> He asked himself. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#39b54a"">Looks like him,</font></span> he replied. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00aeef"">It's the right uniform, at least,</font></span> he interjected cautiously. As his eyes peered down through the fisheye lens Deadpool's attention was drawn to the steaming pizza box, and he felt his belly rumble.<br/><br/>Coming to a decision Wade thumbed the firing pin on his pistol carefully, uncocking the hammer before pulling the door open with a flourish. The pizza guy jumped back, his face twisting with fearful anticipation for what might happen next. Three of the last four guys to make deliveries here had come back with injuries and had had to spend the night in hospital, but the fourth had received a $500 tip so he wasn't sure what to expect.<br/><br/>""Umm... double cheese, extra pepperoni, hold the anchovies..?"" The man asked carefully, watching the costumed loon through the corner of his eye.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-i"">Hey, I like the anchovies...</span></font> he whined as Deadpool reached over for his wallet, sitting on a nearby dresser. <font color=""#00aeef""><span class=""bb-i"">Well none of us do, so you'll have to settle for the pepperoni instead,</span></font> he retorted.

An influx of quality training had found him in the eastern European country. His father was a hired thug and his mother a pole dancer, yet coincidentally they both worked indirectly for a group of shadowy and relatively powerful people, whom had under their employ an elite strike force - whose task it was to establish and maintain the mysterious syndicate as the ostentatious rulers of Sokovia, and eventually beyond that also. They were to go about eliminating competition and assassinating prominent political figures in the country that were potentially threatening to the syndicate's aims. After Zebediah's father was killed in the raid of a rival faction's base, the then young child was taken by the employers of his father. Killgrave did not know what happened to his mother after his abduction, but it mattered little - he had a new, if brutal and unforgiving, family now. Several key skills and traits were developed in Zebediah from a young age to the apex of his teenage years - most notably the arts of stealth, firearm marksmanship and infiltration. Though the select few others trained by the strike force may have been overall better at combat and assassination, Killgrave was a natural master of espionage and acting. Zebediah could don a completely new persona as easily as one might put on different pairs of shoes - needless to say many targeted groups and organisations were oft taken down from the inside rather than the outside.  By the time the deceiving Sokovian had reached his late twenties, he was an irreplaceable part of the syndicate - now calling themselves The Shadow Conquerors - and the ringleaders of the ambitious group saw it fit to assign Killgrave an important task. The President of Sokovia and his government had ostensibly become aware of an organisation seeking to overthrow him, and they were acting with impulsiveness. An inside man of the Shadow Conquerors within the royal government had knowledge that the President was shipping in ample defences against oppressors, as well as expensive experimental weapons with potentially super-powerful abilities. He was also beginning an endeavour into strengthened security, which meant extensive background checks and interviews. Apparently, the President was scared, and he was wasting no time in preparing himself against the rising syndicate. <br/><br/>The leaders of the Shadow Conquerors, however, also used their time and resources wisely. A new position within the government had recently been drafted, and the man who came into the job only days before was mostly unknown to the bulk of the royalty. The same inside man who had provided the intel on the incoming weaponry had already introduced a knife into the man's throat, which meant there was a position for a man to traverse the government buildings unnoticed until the replacement was identified. A position Zebediah Killgrave with his talents could make effective use of...    <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">Powers and Abilities</font>:</span> A trained marksman, adept at accuracy and stealth. High quality level of physical ability. A master of acting and espionage. [Iconic powers to be established in first few posts.]  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">Sample Story Arcs</font>:</span> <br/>An Influential Tongue - The experimentation and consequences of Killgrave using his new-found power.<br/>The Shadow Conquers - The fleshing out and monumental step in power of the murderous syndicate. Zebediah may or may not oppose them, and they could take over Sokovia for good.<br/>A Purple Insanity - Focusing on the devastating changes to Killgrave's life and likely the fundamental motivations for his villainous alignment.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">Sample Post</font>:</span> ""Some information has arisen which may be useful to you and to us as a whole, Shadow."" The heavily built and balding man droned. He sat before Zebediah Killgrave in a battered leather chair, which was fragmented by thin rips across the fabric's surface, most likely from the irritable picking of a man's hand over years of pondering and plotting. Killgrave was impressed, as many  officials of the syndicate that he faced were clearly intimidated by the mysterious Sokovian. It was an aura that Zebediah had learnt in the midst of his training - he knew the exact position and expression needed to convey an untargetable threat across to his conversational partner. It was mostly about shoulder tensing and eye movement. However, Ivan Jankovic was a man of experience, and one with a formidable defence against the subtle battles of conversation.  <br/><br/>""I wish to be of use as best I can, sir."" Killgrave replied steadily, putting across mainly a sense of obedience. <br/><br/>""And we have seen that your best is a damned sight better than anyone else's at your position,"" The colonel kept his eyes fixed on a flurry of papers across his desk, whether choosing to avoid Killgrave's eyesight or not the spy did not know, ""We have a more... fitting occupational area for you to reside in."" <br/><br/>""Oh?"" Zebediah replied, adding a hint of curiousness to his tone. Of course he knew what the Conqueror was going to say because of the reason being that nobody would for long waste his skill in strike force of an incredible calibre. <br/><br/>""There is a certain development taking place in a secure government facility that only you could take part in for us. There are those among us who have seen your tendency towards stealth and trickery as opposed to that of blunt force, and these skills will be absolutely vital in this circumstance. You do this for us, and I'll make sure you are awarded a position of power in the Shadow Conquerors, with your own subsidiaries. It should make life much more comfortable when you are at headquarters."" <br/><br/>""And what does this assignment entail?""<br/><br/>""Espionage, sabotage, possible confrontations with armed and alert government officials. You'll only have a short time to pull this off, and from the intel we've gathered it's gonna decide the outcome of our little standoff with the President and his lackeys. Our inside man, Potter, says they're bringing in some kind of experimental nerve gas, capable of God knows what. It can't be good for us any way. There's a position temporarily available but the ruse will wear off when you get close to the cargo. We need you to gain access to the area - which is half a building and an open courtyard out of your clearance, by the way, and unload whatever containers of this gas you can upon the bastards. This'll make it so they have nothing to oppose us with."" Ivan pushed himself and his chair away from the old desk abruptly, rising to his feet as he did. ""Potter can give you the specifics when you're there. So what do you say?"" He grunted and swallowed with a slight sign of difficulty. Zebediah could tell he had been drinking and was putting some effort into maintaining an air of sobriety and superiority. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">Concerned about me when I am at this position? Fascinating.</span> The conniving man thought to himself. <br/>Of course this was exactly what Killgrave needed to rise to prominence within the syndicate. Zebediah cast a slight smirk to his clean shaven face while looking Jankovic right in the eye. <br/><br/>""When do I leave?""</div></div>"

With a scientist father and a stay at home mother he had the capability for a regular childhood. However even then he was being set up with an alter Ego. His father was often abusive, memories that he would often repress and while that in itself isn't extraordinary it is what his Father was doing to him behind the scenes that was what created the Hulk. His father a brilliant science in the field of radiation was often exposed to it in his daily life. Shielding was inadequate and without knowing he would become irradiated, that radiation he would pass onto everything around him. However these doses were not enough to be of concern.<br/><br/>It was when S.H.I.E.L.D used his father to study an strange crystal that killed all those who came in contact with it. They felt that they could use it to become the next major weapon, however before they could perform any tests Bruces dad mysteriously disappeared with a copy of the material. Despite the man hunts he has never been seen since, and all that remained was the grave of his Wife and his now parent-less Son. He went on to study, without knowing it becoming a child prodigy of his father.<br/><br/>Years later he would go on to become the lead scientist at the very base his dad had once worked at, on the very same material that his dad worked on. Finally making a bomb it was ready for testing, however as luck would have it the science was not right. The yield far greater than to be expected the bomb blew up, and the blast radius extended to the facility where they were monitoring the test.

After being blamed for the explosion, due to the fact he survived, that claimed a military base Banner has been hunted. On the first occasion where the police caught him he is seen on Camera transforming into the Hulk and tearing the police vehicles to shreds, without killing anyone. They now believe they have the possibility of an even better weapon on their hands. Though Banner and Hulk have other problems.<br/><br/>Hulk sees Banner as puny, and just wants to be left alone. From the world, even from Banner. Despite the rage within him he often seems to be more at peace with most animals than with people... for whatever reason. Yet at the same time him and Banner are connected and to be left alone he cannot exist all the time so he often allows the transformation to occur only when Banner needs the Hulk to survive. Banner himself just wants to clear his name, and fears what the military could do with a power such as the Hulk. Having brief recollections of some of the feats, and seeing on the news, what he can do. He also wants to know what kind of relationship truly exists between the two of them. <br/><br/>It is an uneasy alliance, the balance of which is often tipped one way or another however with more and more heroes emerging it is time for the Hulk to find his place in the world, or leave it.</div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bruce Banner"" type=""button"">Bruce Banner [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">Super Genius-Level Intellect: </span>Doctor Bruce Banner is a super-genius in nuclear physics, possessing a mind so brilliant that it cannot be measured by any known intelligence test.

However as he can transform in times of calm (later, not currently) this indicates that there is something physological as well as physical. Due to the reaction being often related to stress it is almost night impossible to physically wound him without the Hulk appearing.<br/><br/>It is not known how but when his rage subsides, or the ""Hulk"" relinquishes control or some unknown reasons the extra bodymass he gains during transformation is lost. As the Hulk his skin turns green and he turns into a 8'8"", 2,400 lb goliath.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Strength:</span> Hulk is best known for his strength that can affect his entire body. Though this is said to be almost unlimited due to varying factors such as the Hulks rage/stress/excitedness or indeed Gamma Radiation or Dark Magic fuels his strength. Though the physche of Bruce Banner can also affect the Hulk and can limit the Hulks strength, which is why the Hulk never actually kills anyone. Despite this the more enraged Hulk gets, the stronger he gets the less open he is to reason and the less coherent he is and the less he thinks about his actions. Which makes him dangerous, especially if he is against a certain target as he won't care about anyone/thing else in his way.<br/>	- This also extends to his lungs that are able to inhale vast quantities of air (Though he hasn't figured out this yet).<br/>	- Naturally this extends to his legs, allowing him to run great speeds for his size or jump vast distances.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Invulnrability:</span> In addition to immense strength, the Hulk's body possesses a high degree of resistance to physical injury. The Hulk has survived tremendous amount of punishment throughout his career. The Hulk's skin is impervious to conventional blades, Adamantium and Vibranium being strictly the few known metals that can effectively pierce and penetrate his skin. However other beings of immense strength, such as Abomination or beings augmented such as the Hulkbuster armour can cause some physical damage. Strong blows to the head depending on his level of rage can also knock him out, and while he is usually impervious to gasses/tranquilizers sufficiently strong doses in high quantities can knock him out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Regenerative Healing Factor:</span> Despite the Hulk's high resistance to physical harm, it is possible to cause the Hulk injury. If he is caused injury it is possible for him to heal the wounds at great speeds, however he cannot regrow limbs lost limbs unless he is enraged to levels that he has not yet reached or is victim to a high enough dose of radiation. This healing factor is also the reason it is hard to use tranquilizers to knock him out as his body tries to counter the drugs, and does so rapidly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Adaptive:</span> It is possible for Hulk to faced extende periods of time in oxygen-less outer space/under water without suffocating, but he is also capable of speaking in these enviroments. However it is theorised that this is linked to his level of rage and he has yet to experience this. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Increased Psionic Resistance:</span> In many instances the Hulk has demonstrated great psychic resistance as side-effect of his rage and the multiple personalities inside his mind. However it is capable, of using mental input to further enrage the Hulk or even enrage Bruce Banner to the point in becoming the Hulk.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>- Menace or Hero?

Opening his eyes. Cap low over his forehead he walked off the bus into the city. He was here to try and make his way towards the Future Foundation. They'd help surely, they had to help. He couldn't do this himself, that much was obvious and the military was hunting him. No the best option was to go to Oscorp. Norman Osborne was supposedly one of the smartest guys on the planet and had the resources to back him, yes he himself was smart but his expertise were limited largely to that off radiation everything else was... well. Not really his field. <br/><br/>This was at the point where he stopped really watching where he was going, jostled a bit to the left. To the right, someone was on front of him. Then he looked up and he was in an alley. Two people followed him in and he knew immediately this was bad. Breaking off at a run, keeping his breathing controlled. He stopped as he was facing a big guy, about six foot. Towering over him. One of them drew a knife. ""Ooooh, somebody is wanting trouble."" <font color=""#007236"">""No guys, I don't want any trouble. Why don't you just let me go and nobody will have to get hurt, all right?""</font> He winced, he had said it. That was it, they'd see that as a challenge. ""Oh, nobody will get hurt huh? Why don't we just waste this one? Thinks he's so big.""<br/><br/>He screamed, part in fear part in pain as he felt the blade pierce his back. His heart rate elevated, and he fell to the ground screaming. Convulsing the thugs just looked upon him perplexed. They didn't hit him that hard did they? It was only a little blade, not meant to go very deep. That's when he looked up at one of them, his eyes turning green and his skin began to shift. ""He's one of those mutant freaks! Get him!"" <br/><br/>The kicking didn't help them, in fact it made things worse. All he could focus on, besides the pain was that he didn't want to kill these people. He couldn't lie, he didn't want to hurt them, but he didn't want them to be killed. <br/><br/>Bones snapped and moved, grinding against one another. Muscle mass grew as if out of nowhere as the thugs began to step back. The Hulk stood, the knife falling broken out of his back. He just breathed heavily, one of the thugs moved first. Pulling out a gun and shot Hulk in the back. He just turned absorbing the shot. Throwing a dustbin in their direction knocking two of them into a nearby wall, when the other three began to run he jumped, pulling himself via the building (and removing a chunk of wall) to get on front of them. There he stomped, the ground cracking enough that they fell into it...</div>"

Even though she was the eldest child in the family, her father, Joseph favored his two sons, Steven and Joseph Jr.  No matter what she did, whether Carol excelled at school or athletics, nothing pleased her father.  It almost seemed as if he expected one of his two sons to carry on the family name.  Even though his sons did not perform at the same level as Carol, their father still preferred them.<br/><br/>	During her middle school years, tragedy struck the Danvers family.  At the time, Joseph Danvers’ contracting business was barely staying afloat.  One night, Joseph Sr. was driving Carol and Steven home after their father had drank his sorrows away after a dismal day of work.  Since he was too intoxicated to be operating motor vehicles, Joseph Sr. caused a traffic accident.  While the other driver luckily left the crash relatively unharmed, his son Steve failed to survive.  Carol’s father could not accept the reality that his impaired driving caused the death of his eldest son, instead blaming Carol as the child who survived.<br/><br/>	Ever since Steven’s death, Carol’s father descended into a spiral of despair.  Now the bottle became his constant companion, even more so since the decline of his contracting career.  Sometimes, when business was not faring well and Joseph has drank too much, Carol’s father would come home in a drunken stupor, capable of beating what remained of his broken family.  While his two remaining children would occasionally feel the blunt force of their father, Carol’s mother usually was on the receiving end so that her children were not.<br/><br/>	Carol’s abysmal life did not end there.  Her junior year in high school, Carol learned that her family had only enough money to send one of his offspring to college and that her father had chosen her brother over her, in spite of her superior academic and athletic career.  For her entire life, Carol had dreamed of the stars, wishing to go to space one day.  She wished to become Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineer so that Carol could one day see the stars.  However, now her dreams were crushed.<br/><br/>	Or so she thought.  But at what costs?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Kree-Human Hybrid:</span> Through the experiments of the Brood, Carol Danvers is now a hybrid of the Kree and human species.  These experiments raised her powers above the levels of any normal human or Kree.  For instance, Carol inherited the Kree skin density, bestowing upon her near invulnerability.  However, since she is a hybrid, she does not need an enriched Nitrogen atmosphere to breathe.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Strength:</span> Due to her enhanced Cree/Human physiology, Ms. Marvel is able to easily lift 75 tons (average).  However, as she absorbs energy, Ms. Marvel is able to lift more weight, easily over 100 tons.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Speed:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to move at high speeds, easily above any levels a normal human could ever dream of.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Agility and Reflexes:</span>  Ms. Marvel’s agility, balance, and reflexes far exceed that of any regular human.  While concentrating, only villains with the fastest reflexes and truest aim will be able to land a blow on Carol.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Stamina:</span> Carol’s enhanced Kree-Human physiology allows her to continuing exerting herself at full effort for several hours.  Her energy absorption ability increases the upper limits of her stamina.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Invulnerability:</span> Ms. Marvel’s skin is able to withstand almost any soot of punishment, while her energy absorption defends her from almost anything else.  Bullets bounce off her skin like nothing, while larger armaments fare a little better.  Repeated powerful blows can wear her down, but weaker ones may sometimes go unnoticed.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Flight:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to reach Mach 3 while flying.  At lower speeds, she is able to maneuver in the air with ease.  She is also capable of using her own body as a human projectile, ramming into her enemies with great force.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Photonic Blasts:</span> Carol is able to blast photonic projectiles from her hands.  Her energy absorption enhances the power of these bolts of energy.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Energy Absorption:</span> Part of Ms. Marvel’s invulnerability is her energy absorption.  While her body can absorb any form of energy, her body is especially efficient in absorbing electric, light, thermal energies and radiation.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Minor Molecular Control:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to change her clothing through using her energy absorption powers.  She is also able to switch between her hybrid and regular human form at will.  These powers are easily used with the slightest amount of heat or light energy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">The Sins of the Brood:</span> Introduction Arc where the Brood kidnap Carol and perform their experiments on her.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">The Rise of A Marvel:</span> Carol adjusts to her new life as a human-Kree hybrid, using her powers to save Boston from countless threats.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Avengers!

However, because of the ruckus that her drunk father was making a few rooms over, there was almost zero risk of her being caught by anyone because the click of her closing window would have been drowned in the shouts of her father.  Mr. Danvers was not inherently a terrible father, but one who had been plagued by bad luck.  Losing his son, coupled with his job, which was a major source of income for the Danvers household, would have caused anyone to spiral out of control.<br/><br/>	Once outside, Carol turned away from the house and rushed out into the darkness.  Before mass consumption of electricity and artificial light, darkness ruled the night.  Mankind was not terrified at the existence of monsters, but rather by its curiosity and imagination.  Monsters did not lurk in the night, but what if they did?  However, once artificial lighting became universality consumed by humanity, the fear of the unknown dissipated.  Unfortunately, the artificial light causes an effect that makes the stars in the night sky seem dimmer.  Even going out into a dark field will not be enough if there is a neighboring city polluting the sky with light.<br/><br/>	Even though the amount of artificial light did not make that night perfect for star gazing, Carol picked out the Andromeda constellation from the various stars twinkling in the night sky.  While she could barely pick it out, Carol could discern a dim light, which was actually the Andromeda galaxy, located right next to the “knee cap” of the Andromeda constellation.  While it is not the closest neighbor to the Milky Way (the Magellanic Clouds and a few other smaller galaxies are closer), it is one of the largest neighbors to our own galaxy.<br/><br/>	Suddenly Carol was blinded by a blaring light.  Has her father already found her?  However, Carol deduced that it could not be her father because of the direction from which the light was originating.  Instead of coming horizontally, somehow the beam of light was coming from above.  Carol reached down to touch her hand on the ground, but she was bewildered to discover that her hand did not feel anything solid underneath her.  In fact, when she looked down at the ground, she had already risen up several feet off the ground.  Panicking, Carol flailed in vain as she tried to get back to the ground.  Whoever (or whatever) was abducting her must have decided that the commotion that this Earthling was making was putting them in a vulnerable position to be discovered, forcing them to activate some kind of device that knocked Carol out cold.  For the rest of the way up to the alien space-craft, Carol did not make another sound, nor did her limbs stir.</div></div></div>"

It was created many years ago by a Godly entity known as the Demiurge, the sentient life force of Earth's biosphere who seeded the Earth with 'pieces' of its own life essence. Life didn’t stay like paradise for long. At the age of six, America watched as destruction approached her home, with a black hole appearing in the sky. Tragically, the hole was attempting to pull her home directly into the multiverse, which would potentially destroy all life on the Parallel in the process. America’s mothers, the guardians of the Utopian Parallel, heroically sacrificed their bodies and souls in order to seal the black hole. Eager to help her mothers, America flew towards the hole not knowing what her parents were doing. This resulted in her being sucked through, with America finding herself alive and well in the multiverse.<br/><br/>Due to her mothers’ particles being smeared across the entire Multiverse as a result of them sealing the black holes, America found that she could now physically kick open her own doorways through reality, allowing her to travel the multiverse at her will. Deciding to make her parents proud and to honour their sacrifice, she trained and explored, eventually adopting the moniker ‘Miss America’, and began fighting crime and against any threats that she came across.<br/><br/>Eventually, Miss America became a member of the Teen Brigade, a team of teenager superheroes led by the Ultimate Nullifier. They faced many threats during their time together, although none of them that major, with the group regularly going toe to toe with z-listers or simple thugs and robbers. It was mainly for these reasons why America soon decided to leave, with her believing that she could probably do a much better job on her own. Well that, and the fact that she had begun a relationship with the Ultimate Nullifier who defiantly wasn’t her type by a long shot. <br/><br/>While still travelling the multiverse, America tends to frequently reside on Earth-212, a platonic perfect ideal of New York, where the metropolis has swept the entire globe and there’s mountains made of statues of liberty. This is when she discovers Earth-76031, with her realizing that here is crime rates are high and people are in serious need of a good punching.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><div class=""bb-indent""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman strength –</span> America is able to lift around 15 tons while exerting herself.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Self-Propelled Flight –</span> America has the ability of self-propelled flight.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman durability –</span> While not completely invulnerable, America is fully capable of taking a beating before going down.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Interdimensional Travel –</span> Chavez is able to physically kick open holes in reality, allowing herself, as well as others, to travel the multiverse and through other dimensions.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Bilingual –</span> America is fluent in both English and Spanish.</li></ul></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span> <br/><div class=""bb-indent""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Welcome to Earth -</span> Miss America's debut on Earth-76031 doesn't exactly go to plan when she encounters the Hulk.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Damage Control –</span> Miss America struggles to redeem her actions after the fight against the Hulk.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Interdimensional Drug Dealing –</span> Find the dealer.

Spider-man, Daredevil, you name it. It would seem that this wasn’t the case on Earth-212. Unfortunately though, there was however an abundance of so called supervillains. In America Chavez’s eyes, that wasn’t completely bad. It even made her kind of happy in a way. She finally had people to punch. Well people that deserved it of course! <br/><br/>This guy in particular was just your regular drug dealing thug, with the feeble man sporting what appeared to be an entire tracksuit. Obviously he didn’t own a mirror, which was surprising considering everything she had heard. From what she had gathered after “nicely asking” the local junkies, ol’ tracksuit here got his stuff directly from the main supplier. The drug in question? MGH. Mutant Growth Hormone. Powerful stuff. Just one hit could potentially give the user omega level mutant abilities. That enough was enough to get America Chavez on the case although that wasn’t the only reason. What intrigued and worried Chavez the most was that there weren’t any mutants on Earth-212. So where the <span class=""bb-i"">mierda</span> was he getting it from?<br/><br/>“I swear to god, I don’t know!” The man’s Brooklyn accent was clear as day, although that wasn't exactly rare considering there were around 14 different Brooklyns on this Earth. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios</span>. America’s patience was wearing thin. She had enough of this. It was time for action. <br/><br/>“If the next few words to leave your mouth even rhymes with the ‘I don’t know’, I’ll be breaking your fingers…” America’s eyes glared angrily into the man’s as she pulled his arm in between the two. “…one by one.”<br/><br/>“Listen bitch! I don’t…” Well at least she gave him a chance. The scream that followed masked the sound of snapping bones, with the drug dealer collapsing to the floor in pain. He wailed and moaned as he flopped about the floor, while America simply took the time to check her watch. Her attention snapped back however when he finally decided to talk.<br/><br/>“Alright… alright I’ll talk! I’ll give you the address!”<br/><br/> “That’s the smartest thing you’ve said all day, <span class=""bb-i"">Chico</span>.”<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">★★★★★</div><br/><br/>It was obviously a trap. Tracksuit back there had managed to phone ahead before getting picked up by the cops. Fortunately a group of 20 armed guards wasn’t going to be an issue for Miss America. She tore through the men with ease, easily breaking several bones in the process. Her prize though wasn’t all too exciting. Whoever was behind the drug production here had cleared up shop. By the looks of it, it had only been recently too. America swore angrily under her breath. All night she had been working this case, yet she was still no closer to solving it. <br/><br/>That was until she detected something off about the warehouse. The particles around her shifted awkwardly as if they had been broken apart. Of course! It was obvious now. Whoever this sucker was, they had access to the multiverse. All that frickin’ power and what do they do? Sell drugs. Absolutely ridiculous. If they were going to take the time to break the laws of physics, then they may as well do something decent for their efforts. <br/><br/>Deciding it was time to take her leave, America closed her eyes and concentrated. Focussing on the energy around her, she stamped down breaking the ground. No, not the ground, the walls of the multiverse. The star shaped portal shattered instantly, leaving a pure white decent into nothing. America frowned at the sight, with her having just detected where it would be taking her. Earth-76031. Perfect. Looks like she wouldn’t be having Korean BBQ until. It was the little changes across the multiverse that did the most damage in her opinion, like the lack of cooking skills on some Earths. Sighing, she gave one last look around at the warehouse, the beaten thugs and even the occasional glimpse of the night sky, before diving through the star shaped hole.</div></div></div>"

In disbelief, her parents kept the message of the Seer as secret, they feared that their unborn daughter would throw herself into danger and unnecessary risks if she heard the story of the Seer. Several months later, Tarene's parents discovered they were expecting a child and finally they welcomed Tarene into the world. <br/><br/>For the majority of her life Tarene's upbringing was uneventful, borderline mundane, her parents disallowed her to partake in anything particularly dangerous, for fear the Seers vision would come true and she'd fall into harms way. Despite their best efforts, fate caught up with Tarene and the Seer who had warned her parents of her destiny, tracked down Tarene herself and told her, rather cryptically, that she would come to possess tremendous power and would fight great evils. <br/><br/>She allied herself with Thor, and despite her best efforts, she was not able to defeat Loki, Thor, who always sought to redeem Loki, refused to deliver a killing blow, or allow Tarene to deliver the killing blow. During Ragnarok, the Thor Clone attacked Tarene and she was badly wounded. Tarene was positive she'd failed her destiny and was going to perish at the hands of her greatest ally, he didn't just beat her, he absolutely destroyed her. Just before the THor Clone could deliver the final killing blow, the real Thor intervened, saving Tarene's life. She managed to escape to Vanaheimr where she spent many many years, terrified to return to Asgard after the events of Ragnarok.  <br/><br/>Eventually Tarene dedicated herself to trying to find Thor, always believing he survived Ragnarok, perhaps tricking herself he was strong enough to face the end of days and walk away unscathed. She felt certain that Loki perished, having witnessed a fraction of the chaos he'd caused before she was able to escape. She  began a journey through the 9 realms searching for Thor or clues about what happened to him, but her search for Thor was fruitless, she also heard nothing of Loki, further affirming her belief that Loki had indeed perished during Ragnarok. <br/><br/>Over time she began to believe that Thor too had perished and gave up her hope of finding him alive and well, it was then that she came across Thor's hammer. She decided to take the hammer, hoping it would aid her search to find answers of what happened to Thor, since her hopes of finding him alive began to diminish, but of course she had to figure out how to lift it. Having lost her powers during Ragnarok, Tarene is at a loss as to how she will pick up Mjolnir and regain her cosmic powers. Although she doubted her abilities, she attempted to lift Mjolnir regardless, in the hope that somehow her power has been restored. To her own surprise, the hammer budged slightly in her grasp. A faint glimmer of hope blossomed in her chest and with renewed vigour, she attempted to lift the hammer again and it swung up from the ground with ease in her grasp, her power once again restored. <br/><br/>She resumed her search to find Thor, hoping that somehow, possessing Mjolnir would aid her search. Eventually she decided to go to Midgard, not suspecting Loki to have (a) Survived Ragnarok and (b)Wind up on Midgard. She adopted the human name ""Tara"" as a disguise and attempted to blend into human society (and at first it failed absolutely terribly). <br/><br/>Still out of her depth, she's settling into human society and keeping a generally low profile, finally managing to hold down a job in an old bookstore where there is virtually no technology since she can't understand it at all. Recently she overheard a number of teens looking at the comics in the bookstore chatting about ""Superhumans"" and she asked where she could learn more, hoping that perhaps Thor is with these super humans. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</div> She posses Mjolnir and thus inherits the power of Thor, so she can pick up and wield the legendary hammer and command thunder/lightning, rain and storms. She possesses tremendous strength and enhanced stamina and metabolism because she is an Asgardian Goddess. She heals quickly, hits hard and ages incredibly slowly and is immune to disease. She has the ability to fly, by swinging mjolnir and using the tremendous momentum to ""throw"" herself along with the hammer across great distances. She can use this method to travel between realms. Since Ragnarok, she has grown tremendously in terms of her power and her power is said to rival that of Odin's, perhaps she is more powerful than Odin at this point.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Sample Story Arcs:</div><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Story arc 1 (a.k.a.

She agrees to help him fight for a greater good in the hopes that she'll live up to her destiny. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Story arc 4 (a.k.a the only one where Loki isn't hugged or harmed):</span></span> Tarene gives up her search, disheartened, and aims to just blend in in human society, however her destiny once again catches up with her and she finds herself picking up her hammer once again to fight a big bad evil. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Story arc 5 (a.k.a Season 2, Thor without a Hammer): </span></span>After losing Mjolnir, Tarene suffers an identity crisis, with Asgard gone, her past and her future is erased, and now without the hammer she has no ""fresh start"" to cling to. She is stuck in limbo and begins a soul search which ultimately leads her down a dark path. Unwilling to forgive Loki, whom she blames for destroying Asgard (which is true) she also believes he is to blame for her downfall on Midgard.

Her embrace was comforting, it hurt Laila to think about how much she was hurting Frigga in turn.<br/><br/>She was not entirely surprised when Frigga appeared reluctant to send Laila away. Frigga had kept her here this long and taken care of her, watched her so closely, for some reason or another.

From a young age he was a volunteer, just wanting to help others. However after his mother was murdered at the hands of Gangsters life took a disturbing turn. He turned to violence and gang life, he tracked down the ones responsible for his mums death and killed them. He took to taking what he wanted, however in a way thtat never really had him cross the law. Just in a do what needed to be done kind of way, if he ever took anything it was from someone who deserved it (In some way or another). Which is what led him to military life.<br/><br/>He exceeded in every sense of the world, a great soldier. He was loyal, followed orders, and did what needed to be done <span class=""bb-i"">without</span> crossing the line and becoming a psychopath. He was so good he was transferred into Special Forces, where a mission in South Africa got him onto the radar of one Colonel Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D who had him transferred under his command. IT was during his time at S.H.I.E.L.D that his moral compass began to point in its original direction.<br/><br/>In the calm enviroment, where he could see the bigger picture and had to think about it he realized what he had done. He hadn't done anything terrible but he had done some bad things. He worked on changing that, he thought about the big picture. He worked on redemption, he didn't work against soldiers anymore. He worked against <span class=""bb-i"">threats</span>. Organisations like Hydra and Aim were different from working against foreign nations, these were people who were doing bad things for bad reasons. They weren't just soldiers following orders, they had chosen their path. He worked quickly, cleanly and efficiently and when life got weirder, so did he.<br/><br/>With the discovery of some of the original Super-Soldier serum, and the eventual complete and utter mapping of the serum. He was injected and augmented, while it wasn't enough to make him a rival to the original Captain America with the flight harness he was still just as dangerous and just as skilled and as such a New Captain America was revealed to the World on front of the White House. The Presidents promise to help keep the citizens of America (And the world) safe from all the wacky dangers that were presenting themselves these days.

However then with an emergence of villains, and heroes. Fury decided the best solution was to give the serum to his most skilled, and trusted, agent. Sam Wilson. The serum gives him increased endurance, strength, slightly increases his cognitive abilities (nothing major, just makes him able to make snap decisions quickly) and also gives him a minor healing factor. Nothing akin to the Wolverine or the Hulk however if a wound isn't immediately fatal and is cared for correctly he will heal quicker than the average Joe.

Fury just kind of grumbled at that one, being pushed by the Council to do things never ended up with the best results.<br/><br/>""I'm not asking, you're the one who can lead this team.

One night, after following the man he believed to be the alien he'd seen before, Derek was abducted by the Skrulls who began operating on him while still in Earth's orbit.

He'd get more of a super suit at this point as well. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span></span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sample Post"" type=""button"">Sample Post [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">""I've been tailing this 'Thunderball' character for three days now. Guy runs around with the Wrecking Crew, but I doubt they know he's one of these shape-shifting alien Skrulls. A month ago he assumed the identity of a doctor Elliot Franklin, probably to get intel on the gamma tech the military's working on. Now he looks to have got jacked on steroids and throws a ball and chain around. I can see his real face. And tonight, this alien's going down..."" Derek thought as he leaped and ran across rooftops keeping up with a car Thunderball had stolen. <br/><br/>Sometime later before ditching the car, Thunderball changed clothes. The 3D Man could see him shifting his form rather than actually changing any clothing. The man looked to have dropped about forty pounds as well to help hide his other alternate identity. Derek moved ahead to the doctor's last residence and was waiting for the Skrull. Upon entering through the door into the open, the alien was caught off guard by a punch from the stronger and faster 3D Man. A couple more punches into it Derek grabbed the alien and threw him through a wall. The home was huge. The doctor had been rich after all, before the whole being abducted and replaced with an alien. 3D Man was usually a hit first ask questions later kinda guy when it came to the aliens he was hunting. As the alien struggled to get up, Derek finally thought to ask some questions. Hopefully the alien was informative like the better villains in James Bond films...<br/><br/>""I know you're called a Skrull. What are you doing on Earth?"" 3D Man asked standing back from the floored alien.<br/><br/>""You can't MAKE me talk, human. You don't look like the torturing type."" the alien said shifting back into his alien form clad in a ridiculous purple alien suit. <br/><br/>""I'm sure the military can find something to do with you..."" Derek began before being interrupted by the alien.<br/><br/>""Wait... YOU'RE the one who defeated Captain Paibok? You may have got lucky against the Power Skrull but every other Skrull you hand over to your brother and his friends in the military..."" the alien began as Derek got a shocked look on his face at the mention of his brother Donald, ""..yes, we know about your brother, human. Every other Skrull merely shifts into another human and escapes before being completely neutered by your military. The last Skrull you sent away...""<br/><br/>""Goliath..?"" 3D Man thought out loud.<br/><br/>""...already back among the human race as a hero this time. Atlas."" the alien continued.<br/><br/>""What do you want with Earth?"" 3D Man tried again as his brother and a few special military operatives in protective gear hit the scene. <br/><br/>""I'll take my chances with your friends, thank you. We'll be seeing you soon..."" the alien continued before being restrained by a knockout gas and a fully automated fold out prison cell that formed around him.<br/><br/>""Did he tell you anything?"" Donald asked his younger brother.<br/><br/>""Yeah, the alien I took down last week got away didn't he?"" Derek asked with Tri-Force energy emitting more fluidly from his eyes.<br/><br/>""He did, why?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""The one I just took down said he's already on the move again. As a hero calling himself Atlas."" Derek explained. <br/><br/>""I saw that guy in the 'Bugle. Same powers, makes sense. You gonna go after him again?"" the older sibling asked while noticing some of the finer things in the good doctor's home.<br/><br/>""That goes without saying. How do they keep getting away from the military?"" 3D Man asked with aggravation being clear in his tone.<br/><br/>""Look... we're trying to replicate your 6th sense, but we need you to run more tests..."" Donald began reasoning.<br/><br/>""I don't have time for tests, damnit!"" Derek said a little louder as the last of the military agents evacuated the scene, ""The more time I spend with you studying my powers the more time the aliens have to gain the upper hand. <br/><br/>""You just like being a superhero little brother. You don't have to lie to me."" Donald said taking a jab at Derek.<br/><br/>""Can you give me a lift back into the city? I forgot my subway card and I don't have any cash on me?"" Derek asked.<br/><br/>""You can run at least seventy miles an hour and you want a ride? In traffic?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""I don't feel up for running, I just beat up an alien. And your car has a radio and a reclining seat..."" 3D Man said grinning and showing off some dimples.</div></div><br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Sadly his parents, as well as the majority of the rest of his family were extremely anti-mutant. Luckily Bobby remained free from the controversial views that many shared for mutants in the town for a large part of his childhood, due to him attending an Orthodox Jewish day school where he was taught about acceptance and generally the exact opposite of his parents, despite their shared faith. When he was 15, Bobby was forced to attend public high school due to his family not being able to pay for his school fees after his father lost his job. This meant that for probably the first time of his life Bobby was introduced to the harshness of the real world. He was constantly bullied for both his scrawny size, as well as his faith, causing him to stop practising in order to attempt to fit in. <br/><br/>Initially, he wasn’t aware of his mutant abilities when they first appeared, believing himself to simply be suffering from a cold when he found himself constantly shivering. After weeks of pestering, Bobby finally agreed to go on a date with a girl named Judy Harmon, although this was mainly in order to stop his fellow classmates from calling him gay if he didn’t. During the date, Bobby was attacked by school bully Rocky Beasely, and his gang, who believed that Bobby stole Judy from him. In an attempt to fight back, Bobby accidently ended up unleashing his abilities and freezing everything in the nearby area, including the bullies and Judy. It was then that two new people arrived on the scene; a bald headed man in a wheelchair, accompanied by a young man wearing bright red sunglasses. They introduced themselves as Professor Charles Xavier and Scott Summers respectively, with them claiming that they were both mutants. After they sorted out the situation with the frozen bullies, with Charles erasing their memories of the event, they proceeded to explain that they had been watching over Bobby for a few days now after detecting that he was a mutant, with them offering Bobby a place at their institution, as well as a member of their team; The X-men.<br/><br/>Worrying as to what his parents would think of him being a mutant, Bobby agreed on the condition that his parents were to be told that he’d be attending an ordinary prep school. Xavier agreed. <br/><br/>Bobby settled well at Xavier’s school, with him learning how to control his abilities, as well as undertaking advanced courses in a variety of studies. He became very sociable in this new environment, often taking on the role of class clown. He soon took on the moniker of Iceman, officially becoming a member of the X-men, alongside the rest of the students. Here he befriended a young woman named Angelica Jones, with the two bonding quickly. During his time with the X-men, Bobby regularly fought against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, led by the Master of Magnetism himself. Bobby soon developed a rivalry with Brotherhood member John Allerdyce, AKA Pyro. <br/><br/>Due to her father being accepting of her mutation, Angelica soon encouraged Bobby to tell his parents about his. The confrontation didn’t go down well, with his family initially believing that he was simply coming out to them, a matter they also high disagreed with. To be honest though, their initial beliefs weren’t wrong, as Bobby also took this time to tell them that he was gay. Obviously they did not take the news well, with them naming their son a freak, as well as calling the police. Xavier’s arrival put a halt to the situation, with him once again having to wipe the minds of all of the people involved. Bobby didn’t mind as either way, he wasn’t ever speaking to his parents again. <br/><br/>After this event, Bobby lost his newfound confidence, sinking back into the sadness he had experienced back in high school, despite the support of him coming out from the rest of the team. After a trip to a science museum which led to the X-men teaming up with the Amazing Spider-Man in order to take down the Juggernaut, Angelica discovered that Spider-man was actually her old friend Peter Parker. With the two finally reunited, as well as her sensing that Bobby needed something to take his mind off of things, she introduced him to Peter. The three, despite Bobby’s initial reluctance, decided to form a team known as the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>The regular crime fighting trips to New York greatly improved Bobby’s outlook on life, allowing him to return to his happier, clowning self. This happiness went on for months, with both Iceman and Firestar balancing their time between the X-men and the Amazing Friends. Unfortunately this came to an end when Peter retired after Gwen’s death, causing Bobby to focus more on his duties as a member of the X-men. <br/><br/>Upon hearing that Spider-man had returned to the streets once more, Bobby decided that it was time for he too to get back out there!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Bobby Drake is a mutant. He is potentially an Omega Level one at that, although has yet to embrace the full force of his abilities.<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><br/><li>Thermokinesis; Bobby has the mutant ability to lower his external and internal body temperature, as well as projecting this coldness from his body. This has rendered his body tissues unaffected by sub-zero temperatures, with Bobby also able to lower his body temperature from its normal 98.6 Fahrenheit to absolute zero (The point where all molecular motion stops.) and lower within the span of a few tenths of a second. As his body temperature falls, the surrounding moisture in the air that is in contact with him is also lowered, with the condensing moisture forming an icy covering which encompasses his entire body. This covering is essentially a crystalline ice that constantly cracks with any movement of his body, and immediately reforms. Through practice, Iceman has learned to control the intensity of his coldness, and he can selectively lower the temperature of isolated parts of his body.</li><li>Cryokinesis; Bobby is also able to control moisture, with him having the ability to freeze any air moisture into super-hard ice. This ice can be formed into any object of his choosing: the only limitations are his own imagination, and the ambient air temperature which determines how long his ice sculpture will stay icy. This ability is usually used to form a rising column of ice beneath his feet which is capable of lifting from the ground (i.e. his ice slide). Due to the amount of water on Earth, Bobby has a virtually unlimited supply of moisture since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment. Even desert air has sufficient moisture content for him to make temporary practical use of; however, the mental effort needed to employ his mutant power under these circumstances could eventually fatigue him and render his freezing ability temporarily dysfunctional.</li><li>Ice Clone Generation; Essentially an extension of his cryokinesis, Bobby has the ability to generate ice sculptures of himself which he can mentally control as if it was his own ice covered body.

Recovering fairly quickly, Bobby scrambled to clean it up, attempting to scoop it up with the spoon, although he only succeeded in causing even more of a mess. Giving an apologetic smile to the obviously bemused Professor, he decided to give up, sitting back in his seat. <br/><br/>“Sorry Professor, I couldn’t sleep.” He sighed, his eyes scanning his arms for a watch. Remembering that he had left it up in his room, he looked back up. “What time is it anyway?”<br/><br/>Still smiling, Charles Xavier wheeled forward, moving his wheelchair up to the kitchen table. He was currently wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, which made Bobby worry that he had somehow awoken the man from his slumber. A wink from Xavier however told Bobby that the Professor knew what he was thinking.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry, much like yourself, I have been up late pondering too.” His reply calm and collective. “As for the time, I believe it is some time after 1am.”<br/><br/>Bobby gave the man a nod in return. A silence spread across the two of them for a few seconds, giving the teenager time to reach for his spoon once more and attempt to chisel off another chunk of ice-cream from the tub. <br/><br/>“I know what you’re thinking, Bobby.” Xavier broke the silence. “What happened today with the Brotherhood wasn’t your fault.”<br/><br/>Stopping in his tracks, Bobby once more let go of his spoon, leaving it suspended upwards in the ice-cream tub. <br/><br/>“I let them escape. What use am I against a guy who can fucking control metal? All I can do is freeze things and that doesn’t even do anything with fucking John being there! I’m useless! I’m a joke!”<br/><br/>His fists slammed down into the table, ice erupting from the points of contact. By now Bobby had risen from his seat, his voice raising in volume as he did so. Tears began to stream down his face <br/><br/>That was when he felt a comforting hand on his arm. Steadying his breathing, Bobby turned to find Charles sat in his wheelchair next to him, gazing up with a reassuring look on his face.<br/><br/>“Robert Louis Drake. Everybody likes you, Bobby. They always have. You’re a fun guy. Honestly, you’re what holds us all together.” Xavier took a moment to pause, moving back around the table once more. “Out of all my students, former and current, you have always had the most untapped potential. All you can do is freeze things? Dear boy, you have the potential to do so much more, you have no idea! Bobby, you need to stop looking into the past and begin looking into the future. With the world we live in now, we have no room for untapped potential.”<br/><br/>Bobby stood in silence as the Professor turned to leave.<br/><br/>“What should I do?”<br/><br/>Xavier stopped in the doorway, his eyes still ahead of him. <br/><br/>“Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.”<br/><br/>“Oh, is that all?”<br/><br/>Bobby withdrew back into his seat calmly, his mind racing through all that had happened. He looked again to where the Professor had left. Smiling he thought back to when he had first arrived at the Institute. Everything had been so new and scary. He had been so alone that first night, until he had found himself in a similar position to where he was now. Taking advice from the Professor while feasting on ice-cream. While so much had changed since then, it was nice to know that some things had remained the same. <br/><br/>“Amazing, huh?” Bobby murmured to himself, pulling his spoon free from the tub. “I can do amazing.”</div>"

However everything changed after a monarch under his fathers care died due to illness. While it was no fault of his fathers they were forced to flee. He had already seen the worst of the country but now Victor being on the run saw a completely different aspect too it, and it disgusted him. However he was too young to truly understand and comprehend what was going on. His Mother trained him, as best she could for they faced many threats on the roads and there was something she had not told him.<br/><br/>On the eve of his tenth birthday, his mother disappeared. Currently camping in the wilderness there were no tracks, no signs that she had willingly left them or that she had been taken. She was just gone. His father never explained why, Victor suspected him in having a hand in it. The days turned into weeks, and into months. It was not until the dead of winter till Victor demanded his answer. Upon crossing a frozen crevice, the ice shattered and his father fell in. His arms grabbing on to the ice, Victor just turned to face his father and though he knew the best way to get his father, surveying the Ice and the way he had fallen in he did not move.<br/><br/>Confronting him, he demanded to know what his mother had been so worried about for she always had been when he tried to remember a time when she didn't seem to be looking over her shoulder. It wasn't until he began to slip that he confessed. He had talked Victors mother into signing a pact with Mephisto in order to take on Guardsmen who terrorized Gypsy camps throughout Latveria, however she discovered that for every guard she killed an innocent child in the village died. The compassionate soul that she was she renounced her power, Mephisto then appeared before her reminding her that her soul still belonged to him, and he would take it in his own time unless she decided to give him her son. She refused and Mephisto just vanished, that was until the eve of Victors tenth birthday where he kidnapped Victors mother.<br/><br/>Enraged at this prospect, that it had all been his fathers doing. He had given her the greatest burden to carry rather than trying to carry it himself, without thinking he let off a blast of dark magic shattering the ice and sending his father into the depths, where Victor presumes he died.<br/><br/>Alone in the wastes, he wandered on. Where near frozen to death he stumbled upon another Gypsy camp. Temporarily renouncing the name of Doom he lived a happy life. It was here that he met his first love Valeria and throughout his teen years the two were close. Learning magic from the few who taught it within the camp, and more importantly <span class=""bb-i"">studying</span>. Once he had started it could not be stopped, it was as if his mind had a hunger for knowledge. After all, when it came to saving his mother mere magic wouldn't do it. It was time to update himself and the country and bring them on part with the rest of the world.<br/><br/>On hearing about the up and coming genius, wishing to increase the reputation off their university he was offered Scholarship at the University of New York. This is where he met Reed Richards, who tried to befriend him however Victor refused. He even tried to construct a dimensional teleporter, when Reed pointed out a flaw in the design Victor in his arrogance refused to believe it. How could he afterall make a mistake? This was his technology and his designs. He knew the physics and the maths. So when it failed, and caused an explosion he blamed Reed for interfering in his experiment however the damage was done.<br/><br/>He was expelled for ""unethical"" and ""illegal"" experiments, despite the fact that boundries had to be pushed for the continuation of science. He did not see people complaining about the <span class=""bb-i"">pretty boy</span> and child prodigy Howard Stark, who quite often felt threatened by those who could rival him in both the fields of science and in terms of appearance so never hesitated to gloat about his wealth to Victor. This was made worse by his physical scarring, while minor made Doom hide his face. He was damaged, and the world had done that to him. Though he would make a new face, like he would make a new <span class=""bb-i"">better</span> world.<br/><br/>Hearing word of a group of Tibetan Monks who dealt in magical affairs he travelled to their temple, where after months of meditation they helped make him a metal suit of armour. The last piece he insisted upon, in order to become an ideal and perfect he needed his face to be concealed behind a mask. Rather than merely attaching it to his face he had it placed onto his face while still red hot. If his face had not been imperfect before it certainly was now.<br/><br/>Returning to his home country he saw a chance to make a difference. While many in the country did not like the current Baron or the Monarchy due to the tensions in the region he felt he had to be very careful in how he took power of the country. Through clever assassinations, with no tie to him, disappearances and people fleeing the country there was eventually just the Baron himself. Doom, instead of just killing him started a revolutionary movement, though always keeping a hand in the shadows. Riling people up in the right places, an ensuring that nothing untoward would happen to his movement. <br/><br/>Within two years Doom sat on the throne.<br/><br/>He cares deeply for his country, trying to do what's best for it and it's people. Revolutionising Robotics himself to patrol the country and keep it safe from external and internal threats (Some of those internal threats can sometimes be due to differing opinions) and using them as a prime export for other countries Latveria has been experiencing an economic boom like it never has, and in the background Doom is planning to expand his reach. To gain more power, to make this a perfect world. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Magic</span><br/>Doom has trained in the mystical arts for many years, since he was a child. His mother taught him the basics, and then after her passing he devoted his life in order to become more powerful in a bled of technology and the mystical arts. He could fire magical blasts, create force fields. He can also currently perform some basic enchantments however without more training these abilities while powerful are not as strong as many other Sorcerers who have spent more years perfecting their art.<br/><br/>However, do not mistake these for parlor tricks. These abilities can easily kill regular people, and make fighting him a bitch.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Technology</span><br/>Something he has spent equally as long on as his magic arts is his mastery of technology, gaining himself a place within the ranks of Tony Stark and Reed Richards in terms of intellect (Though he himself believes himself superior). His armour is as strong as Iron Mans, and completely self sufficient. He is also capable of developing advanced weapons, and even robotic replicas of himself. <br/><br/>- His armour with or without magic is capable of expelling bolts of electricity. <br/>- His armour can also generate a force field.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Super-Genius class Intelligence</span><br/>As mentioned above he is on the level of intelligence off Tony Stark and Reed Richards. To date he has already created several advanced inventions, though mainly he has worked on his armour, shielding and weapons he has also worked on robotics creating A.I so sophisticated that his ""Doombots"" can be used as body doubles. Like his old rival Reed Richards he is also working on trying to crack Dimensional Travel, seeing it as the gateway into cracking time travel.<br/><br/>Doom specializes in physics, robotics, cybernetics, genetics, weapons technology, biochemistry, and dimensional travel. He also has natural talents for leadership, strategy, politics, and manipulation. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Diplomatic Immunity:</span><br/>As the leader of a sovereign nation, Doctor Doom often visits the United States or the United Nations for political reasons. He enjoys diplomatic immunity during these trips, and his embassy is considered foreign soil.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Hand to Hand Combat</span><br/>Through time, patience and training (That at times required no small sum of money) he has trained with some of the best swordsmen on earth and with various other instructors to become proficient in armed and un-armed combat.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Story Arcs:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">These are just three concepts, I have more written down somewhere</span><br/><br/>-Politics: While he officially has diplomatic immunity (Unless he is called to court for War Crimes) there is still a lot of politics that he needs to get involved in. Which is difficult for a man of his position.<br/><br/>-Latveria Prosperity: Latveria while contested has little in way of natural resources, and Doom only ever strives to make the country better. How will he do this? Though not only does he need to think about the economy but he has to think about all the threats surfacing in the world.<br/><br/>-Heart of Doom: He once had love, how will she view him now?<br/><br/>-Dooms World: World Domination, duh. Though I think he may be stopped.<br/><br/>-A Mothers Love: Finally having the power he will travel to meet Mephisto to win back his mothers soul, however what price will he pay? How will she react?<br/><br/>-Death of Doom: When Doom has severe head trauma much of his past is forgotten, what will happen to this new Doom who only remembers his life as a student and a ruler and a complete personality twist makes him no longer strive to take over the world. Though part of him wishes to regain his memories, especially as some of his intellect has been lost during the injury. <br/><br/>-Throne of Doom: He took the throne, and disposed of most of the family. <span class=""bb-i"">Most</span>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Post:</span><br/><br/>""Do you have any proof though Director Fury?"" Doom could smile under his mask, it was always at this moment where he had his opponent in his grasp that he enjoyed the most. Once again allegations were flying at him as S.H.I.E.L.D were <span class=""bb-i"">inquiring</span> about activities going on concerning the sale of his doombots. It was a political game, and one Fury was poorly equipped to play, though in the end how could he not be outmatched? He was against Doom after all.<br/><br/>""No we don't, Sir-"" Such spite in the use of the word Sir. There was no respect in it, there was loathing and hate. Fury had played this game with Doom many times, Doom could almost feel sorry for him. However this was precisely why he refused to speak to anyone else <span class=""bb-i"">except</span> Fury when it came to dealings with S.H.I.E.L.D. Being the ruling monarch of a country had its advantages after all. ""-However your robots are being used by several criminal groups-"" <br/><br/>Doom raised his hand in a gesture to stop. ""I'll have to stop you there Director. You know full well that I do not personally oversee every sale, however I can assure you that all our clients are vetted to ensure that they will not cause harm to any of our allies either in Europe or overseas-"" <span class=""bb-i"">allies</span>, as if they were on par with Doom. ""-Do you blame Tony Stark for when his weapons were used against U.S. Forces?""<br/><br/>Doom had him, and Fury knew it. ""No but-"" Doom raised his hand again. ""I am sorry Director, however this seems entirely unfair and judgmental. Just because we are a fledgling country, you feel you can bully us around and sell only to you. However I will not stand for it, and if I hear off this again I will be sure to bring it to the attention of the UN when I meet with them, and on speaking about the UN I will require an escort."" He could see that Fury was already thinking on what he could be up to. While to the public Victor Von Doom was nothing but a caring monarch several heroes who decided to poke their noses in his affairs often caught wind of some of his plans, though never enough to bring him to any form of trial as he had diplomatic immunity it would take a war tribunal to do so.<br/><br/>""An escort Sir?"" The silence was broken.<br/><br/>""Yes, there have been several breaches in my perimeter and while I have been able to combat these threats outside of my borders where I have less control of the variables I require an escort who knows the lay of the land better than I to keep myself safe. Will this be suitable?"" Fury almost groaned, he could tell. ""Yes Sir, anything else."" <br/><br/>""No thank you."" With a wave of the hand the transmission was gone, and he turned to the table behind him where he was working on some of his latest designs. He had to be ready.</div>"

Though in this case it might as well been a platinum encased spoon with wi-fi and GPS capabilities.  Tony Stark's dad is the CEO and the second generation of the Stark family to run Stark Industries.  A weapons manufacturer who had a serious penchant for powerful equipment that was always on the cutting edge.<br/><br/>Tony never really knew his mother, as she passed away when he was little.  His father though was a role model for him in every sense of the word.  Martin Stark had a dry witty tone, loved rock music, especially the kind from the 70s and 80s, and even with his wealth was someone who was never stuffy to anyone.   When Tony though was very little he developed a heart disease that made his heart slowly lose energy.  Doctors told his father he had very little time left before his body could no longer even support itself.  In a moment of almost mad scientist like focus.  Martin Stark brought his son to the company headquarters, and after a week of non-stop work.  Fitted his son with a energy reactor core that kept his heart moving sufficiently.  Over the years since refining the technology to make sure Tony would be healthy and that any dangerous side effects were dealt with. <br/><br/>He wanted Tony to be raised right, and from day one had Tony attending public schools in New York City.  Though when he was sent to the schools he was always reminded, to see the others who didn't have the money, the lifestyle he could afford.  It wasn't about mocking them, it was about understanding where he is, and how that spot could help make their lives better.  Even still though Tony had trouble fitting in and relating to people.  <br/><br/>As Tony reached his second year of high school his father was leaving the house more to attend to business matters.  Him and his son, who was by this point in his father's eyes outmatching him in intelligence.  Created a artificial intelligence program to run day to day operations in both their lives and managing the house.  The program was named Jarvis, and both the father and son immediately found an improvement in their lives with him. They especially had a laugh when Apple introduced Siri, those filthy copy cats.<br/><br/>Tony's life changed however when his father went out the Middle East to demonstrate a new high grade explosive.  It was only going to be a three day trip but on the second night he was kidnapped by terrorist groups.  After weeks of searching for him, Tony found out from Nick Fury's own mouth that they had found his father, dead.<br/><br/>Suddenly Tony Stark went from simply a kid to becoming the new CEO of Stark Industries because of his father's will.  Originally drowning in his own depression Tony was willing to just let any of the higher ups in the company just take over operations and avoid it like the plague. However it was a chance visit to the headquarters that Tony started to see things differently.  He was going in to fill out some paperwork letting Obadiah Stane, a long time friend of his father and one of the company's top executives, take over as CEO.  <br/><br/>While Tony strolled through the company he saw things, things that knowing what his father had died for make him sick to his stomach.  Bombs, guns, explosives, so many things of war, so many reasons he had to die.  Tony turned and walked away before ever filing the paperwork, and the next day returned to claim his spot as CEO of the company.<br/><br/>On his first day Tony Stark announced the company would begin a complete overhaul of operations.  Moving from weapon crafting to everyday electronics, and changing the name of the company to Stark Technology.  At first people thought he was insane and delusional, and fears over someone so young taking over the company caused stock in it to plummet.  However Tony had a plan, through an immediate advertising campaign that became the talk of the business world, buying up small start ups and giving them time and money to create, and careful reorganizing of positions without causing much lay off.  In the first year Stark Technology rebounded, and now seemingly is looking to dominate the smart phone, television, and even video game markets in the coming years.<br/><br/>However Tony himself wasn't satisfied enough.<br/><br/>He still wanted answers, something that could soothe the burning in his soul over what happened to his father.  Not to mention it was the fact that all those weapons still existed.  It all fueled him to doing something about it. On his own time at home, Tony took some of the old firepower that the company was leaving, and began working.  He originally worked on other prototypes and concepts before he found himself with a suit of armor.  It used all the best and highest quality material and equipment money could buy.  Best of all it worked on the same reactor core that his father made him all those years ago.  In a year's time, a working prototype was finished, Tony Stark dubbed it 'Iron Man'.  Now with only some private practice sessions to his credit, Tony Stark plans on a lot of quality time with his newest creation, if he has any hopes of ridding himself and the family name of the dirty warmongering.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Tony Stark himself is a simple person.  Healthy and although has the reactor core in his chest, normal as normal gets.  All of his power comes from the suit of armor.<br/><br/><img src=""http://img11.deviantart.net/a190/i/2013/004/3/e/iron_man_by_shamserg-d5qe5ot.jpg""/><br/><br/>Iron Man's abilities are constantly changing because of his constant technological upgrades on the armors. In general terms, he has super strength due to the build of his armor. The exact amount of strength is unknown, but it seems that he can lift and press over 100 tons.<br/>The armor is very durable, capable of withstanding tremendous amounts of punishment. Tony Stark's armor has a muscularly aligned matrix of crystallized iron enhanced by magnetic fields over layers of other metals like titanium, which grants him endurance capable of withstanding high caliber bullets with ease. He can withstand rockets, torpedoes and such, although he does take damage. The armor also enables Iron Man to fly at high speeds, exceeding the speed of a jet airplane, due to the rocket propelled boots that are placed on the bottom of the armor's boots.<br/><br/>Iron Man's suit has many power sources, such as solar converters, electrical batteries and an on-board generator that uses beta particle absorption as a fuel source. The suit is also able to convert nearby energy sources, such as heat or kinetic energy into electricity, or even drain electrical energy directly into the batteries for recharge. Although the suit has some open holes to allow the wearer to breathe normal air, it can be sealed off, allowing the pilot of the suit to go underwater or into space by granting its own life support and limited air supply systems.<br/><br/>Stark also has equipped the suit with numerous weapons over the years, making the suit more powerful each time. The most often used weapons are the repulsor rays (magnetically channeled beams of super-heated plasma) that are fired from Iron Man's palms or gauntlets. Other weapons that are built into the armor include the uni-beam projector in its chest (controlling the full range of the electromagnetic spectrum from blinding searchlights to cutting lasers), pulse bolts that pick up kinetic energy along the way, so that they hit harder the further they have to travel, an electromagnetic pulse generator and energy shield, the generation of ultra-freons, the creating and manipulating of magnetic fields, sonic blasts, and a holographic generator to create decoys.  Everything is voice operated as well as automated through specific commands and using JARVIS.  Most importantly though the suit comes with a five terrabyte MP3 player built in.  After all, when Tony Stark kicks ass, he needs his music.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Beginning the Avengers along with whichever Captain America is and SHIELD.<br/><br/>Finding out there was more to his father's death than just random kidnapping and murder.<br/><br/>With Sep's permission of course.  When Hulk goes on a rampage Tony Stark uses his newest creation, the Hulkbuster suit.  After all if he can't take down his science bro, who can?<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>Las Vegas, NV<br/>Electronics Consumers Conference<br/><br/>“YEAH!  KILLED IT!”  Tony Stark put his hand up high as several other hands slapped it hard.  The showcase presentation was a complete success.  Already tech blogs were raving about the new handheld gaming system, plasma TVs, and smart phones with unbreakable plexiglass screens.  Then again Tony Stark knew it was all going to be a success.  Success was something he needed for the company badly.  The company needed big smash hits to be able to rebound after the opening troubles.  Sure Tony Stark knew the road as CEO of his family's enterprise was not going to be easy, but turns out investors REALLY don't like the idea of an 18 year old fresh out of High School not only running a major corporation, but completely changing said corporation's main supplies and image.  Said young out of high school kid had a lot on his plate, and knew failure would mean the end of the now third generation ran business.<br/><br/>As Tony Stark got high five after high five, finally adjusting and loosening up the skinny black tie he had on with his grey shirt and black slacks.  “Ah, man I tell ya, The Geto Boys said it best.  Damn it feels good to be a gangsta!”  Tony Stark beamed.  “I'm fairly sure CEOs aren't people who should be quoting The Geto Boys.”  Tony Stark turned to see the larger James Rhodes.  A close friend of his father turned executive of daily operations after Tony put himself in charge.  “Whatever, bunch of haters I tell ya.”  Tony stated with a  dismissive wave of his hand.<br/><br/>“Well either way Tony, we still have a few business matters left with the show before I would call it a complete success.”  James Rhodes, for as much as Tony both liked and hated it, was always extremely attentive when it came to the details.  “The show was great, but I think Stark Technology is really going to need its big thing to really put it over the edge.”  Tony paused after getting a can of soda from a catering table to glance back at James.  “Wait hold up seriously?  I know I wasn't the only one who heard the crowd screaming like pre-teens at a...”  Tony Stark realized he didn't realize who was the big it singer right now.  “Whoever the Hell concert these days.  Beiber still right?  No wait uh whatever point is they loved it.  What the Hell kind of big thing are they talking about?”  <br/><br/>Quickly Tony Stark pulled up his smart phone, instantly seeing that while a lot of sites were praising the presentation and items the company had planned.  There was a consciousness against a really big item to put the company on the map.  Tony's joy had dampened a bit as he flipped through the twitter posts, facebook posts, everything on the web about the show that all seemingly said the same thing.  “What the Hell?  What did I need to juggle chainsaws while humming AC/DC to make these people happy?”  Tony sighed irritated before a thought dawned on him.  “Wait!  I might have it.  Rhodes schedule a press conference at HQ.  Next week, early afternoon at the best.  They want a showstopper?  I'll give them a showstopper...”   </div>"

There she would be their Messenger, their Warrior of justice and their Hope of continuing on Asgardian legacy.<br/><br/>During her time on Asgard, before she perished along with most Asgardians, she was a captivating beauty and all-round animal lover. She loved to sing Asgardian songs in her angelic voice, she cared for war orphans and she healed injured soldiers. Although, born a Vanir, she was desired by many Asgardian men, and even the God Loki himself. Instead of refusing his advances, she accepted Loki’s affections instead as she was only arranged to marry Theodric but did not love him. After all, who could resist that charismatic grin? Therein begins her undying love and loyalty to the God of Mischief. And she there she would stay with him until the very end, even enduring his cruelness and tragedy. That is when Odin gave her the title - the Goddess of Fidelity.<br/><br/>Just before the coming of Ragnarok, Gaea entrusted her to protect the Younger Gods. And during this time is where she befriended Amora, the Enchantress. Amora sought to manipulate her into helping taking Lady Sif out of the equation so that she could be with Thor instead. Upon realising, Sigyn refused to betray her sister in arms Sif. And so Amora became her sworn enemy.<br/><br/>Alas, she remembers nothing of her past life, centuries ago. She only catches mere glimpses at a vague past life through a dream state or occasional visions. Her new life is on Earth now.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">THE VALKYRIE - A NEW LIFE</span><br/><img src=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/c2/f4/e3/c2f4e34194a206685476999ca32dff3d.jpg""/><br/>The Gods watched as a human baby girl emerged into the world – to the Parringtons. And as their chosen name for her lay on the tip of their tongue, before they could name her Samantha, the Gods intervened all they heard was all they heard was Victory, Victory, Victory. The name Sigyn meat victorious and thus her name was chosen to be the same in Latin. They spoke the name Victoria… and instead of retaining her golden locks, her hair turned darker to like that of Sigyn’s.<br/><br/>Born to wealthy family of eccentric philanthropists, the Parringtons, and good friends to the Stark family. The young Lady Victoria dedicated her spare time to charity along with her parents. As a child she always had a strong sense of justice. At her parent’s dismay, she wanted to join the police force at a young age to tackle drugs and crime; she had a decent enough IQ too. So the first chance she got she studied criminology and psychology to be able to get into investigation and after schooling she entered the Police Academy as a teenager. It was there she found something strange, being that her flesh was 3 times as dense as a humans but it had never been tested until now. She possessed extreme endurance, she passed all physical activity with flying colours, and nothing fatigued her for an hour or so; she was very good at fighting off men twice her size and held her own, despite her feminine physique. It wasn’t long before she was moved to a Special Ops division in the British government (MI6) where only the most experienced combat agents go. She went undercover, busted drug lords, and cleaned up the streets. She loved her job. Nothing could compare to the thrill of the chase and being in close proximity of death. It was then that SHIELD picked up on her special skills.<br/><br/>Under SHIELD’s wings, she grew as an agent and her sense of justice growing with it. She got on well with the female and male agents alike she’d never let any man touch her, she’d developed trust issues with men that she just could not explain, and the only man she could trust and depend on was Captain America.<br/><br/>Very quickly SHIELD noticed that she never came back with a scratch. And when she was shot for the first time and healed completely by the next day, they pulled her in for a full examination. Everything about her, human. No X-gene, no nothing. She just assumed the government had enhanced her somehow, of hearing stories in the past with super soldiers. But they did nothing of the sort. She was born with her ever growing powers. And day by day she grew stronger until 2011 she fully discovered she was not entirely human…as an entity inside grew deep within her…<br/><br/>Her shoulder blades burned and she was tired every single day as if she’d not slept all night. Unbeknownst to her, that at night whilst she slept, her subconscious Asgardian spirit awoken. The Valkyrie appeared, only ever to be seen at night, watching over the city with brilliant white wings of light emanating from her back. This caused rumours - “do Angels walks amongst us?” in the tabloids. She paid them no mind until SHIELD showed her CCTV footage of her bedroom. There lay her sleeping physical body and, as if sleepwalking, awoke and stood up. Somehow, her nightdress magically transformed into silver plated armour and a sword (Dragonfang) appeared in her hand. At this point she didn’t have physical white feathered wings that flew, only two wings of spiritual light glowing sprouted from her blades. And the only thing expressed from this entity was sadness on her face and a single tear, yet still every bit as graceful as a flower.<br/><br/>It was then decided she needed specialised training at SHIELD with THE Captain America, Black Widow and the other SHIELD operatives.<br/>And the Gods thought it was time to unleash the full might of their chosen Valkyrie…<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and abilities:</span> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Asgardian</span> – she has the same powers as Sigyn’s magical spirit healing properties and can give her life force to others. She has some tarns-mutational powers similar to Loki; she can transform into her armour and summon her weapons from the Ether like he can. She also has conventional Asgardian attributes such as super human strength, agility, vitality, resistance to injury and disease, also with the added Valkyrie iconic wings to aid her (as she doesn’t have the winged horse to ride in Midgard!)<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Resurrection</span> - Like all Valkyries, she can perceive and sense the coming of Death. She can see a ""deathglow"" surrounding a person who is in serious danger of dying, although most Asgardians and humans cannot see the glow. A person surrounded by the deathglow might still be saved from dying. She can transport herself and a dying or dead person from the Earth dimension to an other dimensional realm of the dead, just by willing herself to do so. She can also return through an act of will.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">-Dragonfang:</span> The blade was fashioned from a tooth of an extra-dimensional dragon. The sword was bestowed upon her by the Gods. Sword Attributes:<br/>-Indestructible.<br/>-Magic absorption: Dragonfang absorbs force when comes into contact with blood.<br/>-Capable of destroying mystical barriers: Dragonfang is actually capable of shattering mystical barriers.<br/>-<span class=""bb-b"">An iron spear and heater shaped shield</span>; instead of the Viking like round.<br/>Her swordplay is of Asgardian style and her prowess is only matched by that of Lady Sif, she can lift 45 tonnes compared to the average Asgardian who can lift 25t.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Loki.</span> She is soul bound to him no matter what, destiny and fate – can they really be changed?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Trust issues:</span> She finds it hard to trust people, especially men. Constantly feels she has to take care of herself and she feels great loneliness.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Heartbroken spirit:</span> She pushed any potential love interests away in the past, in the fear they'd break her heart. But you cannot break a heart that's already broken. Maybe a new cause and adopted SHIELD family can help to mend it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Visions:</span> She can become trance like state when having a vision of the past or even the future if the Gods wish her to see the people that need saving. She is their Saviour.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>A team grouping/Avengers Initiative etc: I would be very interested in teaming up, as Valkyrie was a part of the Lady Liberators and the Defenders.<br/><br/>Thor/Loki/Asgardian lore: although she does not remember her past life, she would still find it a comfort to be around Lady Thor’s presence, being of the same kin. Depending if Thor/Loki do want her to remember the past, then she would hope Loki has turned over a new leaf as her loyalty to him has never once wavered. Might find it hard to trust him though.<br/><br/>SHIELD/Cap America/Hawkeye: Can help carry out SHIELD missions, have friendships form with Cap and Hawkeye, taking down any baddies that require general thrashings and the like.<br/><br/>The Hulk: Valkyrie's family try to help the Hulk in the comics and she was also used to fight him. Valkyrie can hold her own against him, so she could form a bond of trust with him and be able to talk him down.

Adorned fully over her arms and chest but with black spandex bodysuit underneath; leg plates only going up half way the thigh. It was too skimpy for her liking and uncomfortable to say the least.<br/><br/>“I look like bloody Xena Warrior Princess…” Victoria scowls in her British accent, removing her winged metal helmet, holding it to her side and turning to Agent Hill. She sighs and gazes the floor. “How can anyone take me seriously in this thing? I look like I'm going up for sexiest medieval knight - swimsuit edition.”<br/><br/>Maria chuckles, she forgot how witty her new found agent friend could be. “Oh dont be so worried. We can always change it to suit you. But YOUR own subconscious conjured up this thing, remember?” She pointed out as she took the helmet from Valkyrie's hands. “Yes and now I cant UNconjure it.”<br/><br/>“Have you decided on a name for yourself yet, V?” Maria asks as she began to help her out of the armoured plating that seemed to detach easily.<br/><br/>Victoria lifts her eyes up pensively. “V....” Her nickname. Everybody called her it. “V for...Valkyrie.” She knew that was the one. “I look like a Norse angel of death.” She expresses as she looks hers legs over, by bending her knee up slightly.<br/><br/>“Oooh dont say it like that, it's scary.” Maria shudders at the 5'8” woman as she helps remove her other bracer.<br/><br/>“Is it wrong..that I <span class=""bb-i"">want</span> people to be a little scared of me? Otherwise how are they going to address me, Maria? <span class=""bb-i"">'Hey baby, sweetcheeks, dollface how bout you show us your backstroke?</span>'” Victoria mimics a sexist male with sarcasm as she rolls her eyes, unbuckling the main belt piece.<br/><br/>“You'll get a lot of that off men because you're very pretty.” Agent Hill puts her hands on her hips. “I get it ALL the time, until I punch them in the gut. That tends to make them shut up.”<br/><br/>“I can see why Director Fury likes having you as his wingwoman, Agent Hill.” Victoria smiles for the first time in a long time. A sincere, warm smile that could comfort just about anyone.<br/><br/>“He sure does. He's confident when tough lil' cookies like us have his back.” Maria smiles back, she herself rarely smiled. She took herself way too seriously. It seemed she and Agent Parrington had much in common. “Hey y'know what...I dont usually go out much but I say we have a girls night out. What do you say, Valkyrie? Has a nice ring to it.”<br/><br/>Victoria's eyes light up, but then quickly dims again. “But I'm not allowed out of SHIELD HQ yet am I? They still don't know what I am...imagine if I blew up a building with people in it or something weird..” She walks over to her dressing table and plonks herself on the stool.<br/>“I'm sure you wont.” Maria reassures her. “On purpose.” She had to add, as a joke.<br/><br/>Victoria looks up at her, almost horrified. “It was a JOKE, okay. Dont worry, I'll square with Fury, we'll have an escort in case anything DOES happen, and maybe Natasha can accompany us and we can just forget about men for one night.” Maria continues to persuade her with a wink.<br/>V could feel a sense of mischief welling up inside, she just could not refuse. “Alright.” She grins.<br/>----<br/>Later that night, Victoria, Maria and Natasha were painting the town BLACK. Maria and Natasha both in little black dresses, Victoria had a more modest white dress. It was in the nightclub downtown that the would be Valkyrie had to shut herself in the bathroom. Her shoulder blades were burning hotter than ever before, rendering her completely useless. Writhing in agony against the marble floor, her blades bulging. She heard her dress slowly ripping. She tried to hold in her cries of pain as she felt something emerge from her back, a feathery sort of touch.<br/><br/>Watching blood trickle down her sides and drip onto the floor. She knew something was very, very wrong. Her tracker had not moved for an hour, Agents Hill and Romanov try to find her, eventually leading to the locked bathroom and a very long queue of girls that Mother Nature called upon. They bang on the door. “Victoria? Are you in there? Are you okay?” Maria yells through the door over the deafening death metal music. Natasha sighs at her then kicks the door in.<br/><br/>There they find Victoria holding up her bloodied white dress around herself, and what looked like brilliant white angel wings. “Oh my god....” Maria gasps. SHIELD immediately retrieve her from the building and return her to HQ.<br/><br/>As she sat in the medical bay with wings sprouted, and adorning a medical robe, she stares at the floor in shock. She just didnt understand. 'Sure could use Cap's inspiration right about now...' The agent thought. “Maybe I really AM a Valkyrie......” She lifts her head up slowly, her bright blue eyes glowing with whispy energies never seen in any mortal. “God.

Reed's father was Nathan Richards, a brilliant scientist who had written numerous books and documentaries  on space and the concepts of everything around it.  His mother Helen Richards though also had many scientific degrees in various fields.  Even with all this however, Reed showed even early on that he was capable of being smarter than any of them.  By the time most kids were just going into pre-school Reed already had the knowledge that could put him into High School. Even still though his parents wanted him to learn patience and humility, so they had him go through the school years and never leap ahead any grades, despite numerous people at school insisting he did.<br/><br/>When Reed however reached the age of 14 everything changed.  His father was working on design concepts and small scale experiments on something he proudly told Reed 'would change everything'.  However after one resulted in a miniature black hole that nearly sucked him in before he was able to shut it off.  Nathan Richards canceled and abandoned the project quickly. He started using his time and stature in the scientific world to make sure that the very leaps and bounds were handled responsibly worrying that one advancement made too quickly could be apocalyptic in its sheer danger.  It all led to him however finding out about experiments being done in Latervia and by one Victor Von Doom.  The leader of the country was creating something Nathan Richards worried could lead to even more destructive danger than his own experiment. One night he went into Reed's room before his bed time, kissed him on the cheek.  He told him that daddy had to go do something important, and that no matter what he loved him very much.<br/><br/>That night was the last time Reed has ever seen his father.<br/><br/>Seemingly Nathan Richards vanished off the map.  Never telling anyone where he went made finding him all but impossible.  Reed though in his grief finished everything through High School in a depression fueled rage.  Getting a G.E.D. Diploma that he doesn't even keep out anywhere out of shame.  As he knew later after a talk with his mom that he couldn't let what happened affect him.  Still Reed found himself in a deep slump of sadness that he couldn't shake.  His dad meant a lot to a lot of people, but to Reed he was a superhero.  Someone he didn't have to look up too because he was right there, always with that smile, and that belly laugh that always made Reed himself laugh.  <br/><br/>By chance the New York Comic Con was coming up, something the more geeky side of Reed loved attending every year since he was very little.  Worrying about Reed, she had Reed's long time friend.  The equally geeky Benjamin Graham, take him on a weekend trip to the convention. She got them hotels next to the convention center, and gave Reed plenty for goodies and food.  Still by the end of the first day it didn't seem like it was working, Reed just mostly stayed in the hotel room, watching TV as Ben had to seemingly beg to even get him to go out for dinner that night.  However the next day Reed finally went, more to shut Ben up than anything else.  However during the day when he was sulking along he saw something radiant.  The girl his age was simply stunning, even without considering the lovely costume she was cosplaying in.  Reed's heart thumped harder and harder at the sight of her.  Ben realizing what was happening played wing man and quickly got Reed to go talk to her.  Her name was Susan Storm, and the two couldn't be detached from one another for the rest of the weekend.<br/><br/>Shortly there after Reed was approached by her father, another renowned scientist in Dr Franklin Storm.  Reed knew about and admired his work (Having not really previously connected the dots on Susan being his daughter), and was surprised when Dr. Storm asked him to join his think tank program The Future Foundation.  Reed was flattered, but as of yet hasn't had any idea what project he could do with them.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Reed's body has undergone a metamorphosis where in his body essentially allows him to be completely and utterly flexible and elastic.  He can stretch his limbs from toes to fingertip upwards of 3 miles but with practice that number can certainly raise.  He can also reform himself into things like a ball shape to bounce around in, stretch individual limbs like fingers and toes, inflate himself or deflate himself flat, along with countless other feats that are hindered by his imagination alone.  On top of this his body structure has changed completely.  No longer supported by a skeletal structure, Reed's body has an almost harden gel like substance supporting it, as well as no longer a stomach but instead a unique bacteria sack that allows Reed to survive off of oxygen alone.<br/><br/>Reed though personally considers his biggest 'super power' to have always been his intelligence. Quite simply Reed Richards could very well be the most intelligent man on the planet.

However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>As Reed Richards could faintly hear sounds coming from all around him, the bathroom where his roommate for the weekend Ben Graham was singing Dinosaur Laser Fight, the traffic outside that is distinctive for New York City morning rush hour, and the dull sales person on the tv.  Reed just quietly sighed to himself as he stared up at the ceiling while laying practically motionless in bed.  Sure he had on clothes and had been awake for an hour or so, but he just would've rather gone back to bed.<br/><br/>It had been some time since his father told him good night that last time, before vanishing to who knows where and if his even alive there.  As intelligent as the young man was he couldn't stop repeating questions that had no logical answer.  The biggest one of all though was why, why did he leave?  Was it something Reed did?  Was his mom and dad not getting along as well as they were making it out to be?  Reed's brain was wrecking itself as Ben came out of the bathroom.  A light misting of steam coming out with him as he had changed into some fresh clothes.  The large, muscular guy in a Jets jersey and jeans took his fingers through his blond buzzcut hair before glancing over at Reed.<br/><br/>“Hey Reed man you're awake!”  Ben started into with the chummy Brooklyn accent of his.  “Listen man come on its going to be great today, they're doing some giveaways today, and man the booth babes.  Dude the booth babes are amazing this year let me tell...” <br/><br/>Ben paused, a bit disappointed as he watched Reed silently roll over in his bed putting his back to his friend.  “No its fine, just go ahead man I'll catch up later.”  Reed softly said with a sigh as he hoped Ben would leave.<br/><br/>“Reed...”  Ben had to hold back his irritation before he walked over to his bed and sat at the side, facing Reed.  “You told me that yesterday and you didn't do it.  Hell I had to make you come have dinner with me last night.  Look I really liked your dad too Reed, he was a Hell of a guy.  But... come on man everyone is worried sick about you.  This whole weekend was to give you something special.  Bro I'm not just going to let you sit here and wallow away like this.  That's not the Reed Richards I know.”<br/><br/>Looking out the window of the hotel room Reed grimaced, he knew Ben was right but there was still that part of his brain, that nagging feeling that told him he still didn't 'get it'.  Still Reed had to fight it and hold it down as he shut his eyes for a second.  He finally turned over,  “I uh...”  Reed had to force it out.  “I guess...”  <br/><br/>-Later-<br/><br/>It took some time, as it felt like Reed was just using small inconveniences and annoyances to just justify not wanting to be there.  However Ben was prepared, and had to get Reed back into the right geeky frame of mind.  It started with some panels where Ben was able to get autographs for Reed of some comic book writers and artists.  Going through the booths Ben helped find Reed some figures that he was looking for.  Slowly Reed was giving a faint grin, just letting himself get back into things again.  It still hurt, but he saw how hard Ben was trying and if nothing else it was providing a nice distraction.<br/><br/>“Alright alright Ben seriously now, I think you know better than to doubt Captain Marvel.”  Reed shook his head having to hold back a laugh.<br/><br/>Ben chuckled, not just because of their discussion but frankly he saw some people nearby give a slight cowering to his presence.  There was something fun about looking like a jock and scaring people who would be impressed by the engineering and robotics knowledge he actually possessed.  “No man Superman could totally take him, Captain Marvel is just a kid playing superhero.”<br/><br/>Reed smirked, his hand having to hold up his head a bit.  “Yeah and that's what makes Captain Marvel more awesome.”  Reed and Ben continued to have their argument, one that had been made in the past and will continue with the two until their too old to even remember comic book characters.  Reed always enjoyed it though, it was that kind of thing you could never justify with anyone rationally. <br/><br/>As the two continued on, Ben was trying to raise a point about Superman's endurance or something like that when Reed suddenly found himself unable to even hear him.  It was due to someone nearby, a cosplayer who had her mask off and was talking to someone else.  The girl though was... Reed just couldn't look away, it wasn't even the Hawkgirl costume she was wearing.  It was just her.  She just had Reed's attention and wasn't letting go.<br/><br/>“...so what I'm saying... Reed?  Reed!”  Suddenly a hand on Reed's shoulder sucked him back into the real world where Ben looked on confused for a moment.  Finally though he looked over at the girl and back down to Reed, quickly picking up the social situation at hand with a grin.  “Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were a bit preoccupied.”  Ben said as Reed felt his cheeks start to turn a harsher peach tone.<br/><br/>“I wha no no no I mean no she's just got a nice costume!”  Reed stammered out a response even he had a hard time figuring out after the fact.  Having to look away to try and figure out quickly how stupid he sounded.<br/><br/>Ben chuckled a bit, patting Reed's shoulder again.  “Sure buddy, it was just the costume...”  Ben saw how Reed was getting very embarrassed but also saw an opening.  “Why don't you go talk to her?”<br/><br/>Reed's eyes shot open wide as he glanced back hastily, “I what?  No I don't even know what to say!  I'm just going to look stupid.”  Reed figured as much, the only other time he tried to talk to a girl like this was asking someone to prom.  It ended about as well as Reed figured seeing as how she laughed thinking it was a prank set up.<br/><br/>“Here come on Reed if you're so concerned I'll help.”  Suddenly Reed felt Ben's large hand grip his wrist as he started pulling him towards the girl.  Leaving Reed panicked, excited, and feeling like he was about to vomit all at the same time.  He tried to get Ben to let go having to shuffle his feet in his forced movement but all hope faded and he soon found himself face to face with something amazing, and with nothing to say.<br/><br/>“Hey whats up?  Sorry to barge in but I'm Ben, this is Reed.  Here Reed say hi.”  Ben had given him the opening, Reed felt his heart rushing in his body like it was bouncing all over the place.  All the knowledge he possessed, all the smarts he had and will ever have.  None of it prepared him for this, the brief pause felt like an eternity as Reed had to muster up his courage.  Here goes...<br/><br/>“Uh, hi!”</div>"

From early childhood, she was one of the prodigies studying and working at the Baxter Building, a midtown Manhattan government research lab. Following her father into physics, at age eight she built a sugar-powered rocket and accidentally destroyed her father's car, after which she changed her focus to ""inner space"" biology. <br/><br/>Then her mother passed away. She had to become the mother figure to her younger brother Johnny as their father broke down into a depression. This caused her much stress and struggle to keep on top of her school work by having to look after her brother, father and the house. She still maintained high grades and reached top of her class. She was very pretty in her teen years but she had no time for boys, so the popular girls in school began to shun her for not participating in the social normality. This made her shy around people her age and found only comfort in attending comic cons with her brother, it was the only time she could truly let her hair down. <br/><br/>This is how she meets Reed Richards and Benjamin Graham, at the New York Comic Con. Her new best friends. She connected with Reed on an intellectual level and he really challenged her mind with his wondrous knowledge. He was drawn to her lovely costume of a Hawkgirl from the popular DC comics (ofc we know Marvel is better!) and she explained how she made it herself. She had become very talented at tailoring for mending Johnny's clothes and expanded on her craft skills as  a hobby to get away from not having any friends of her own. But now she had them and she was so excited.  <br/><br/>When she got home after the con she couldn't stop talking about her new friends Reed and Ben to her father. This inspired him to give Reed a chance at his think tank programme; having heard of Reed's outstanding work already at a young age. He called it The Future Foundation. There they would be the test subjects of Reed's ill-fated experiment....<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.

However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities: Sue Storm possesses the ability to mentally bend all wavelengths of light around her or her target. This ability allows her to render the target in question invisible to the human eye and all forms of electronic detection. Sue can also generate invisible force fields that allow her to levitate herself or other objects, propel or manipulate them however she wishes, and generate invisible force weapons and protective shields. <br/><br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>Susan tapped her foot impatiently. “C'mon Johnny we're going to be late.” She spoke to her younger brother who had his head stuck underneath a car in their garage. She was already wearing her Hawkgirl outfit that she herself made, feather by feather from out of a pillow. Johnny was in a boilersuit and covered with grease. “”Yeah hang on, Sis.”<br/><br/>“Now Johnny. I DO NOT want to miss the masquerade, I want to win best costume this time!” She had a competitive side to her fiestyness, along with her gorgeous blonde locks and curvy figure. She had to make a good contender this year. <br/><br/>“Yeah I said cool it, I gotta fix this for Dad.” Johnny was eager to please his father and be accepted as his not so brainy son, but ever so handy with all things mechanical. <br/><br/>“I said NOW!” Susan kicks his shin. “OW OW OWWWW what did you do that for?!!” Johnny rolls out from under the care and holds his shin bone. “Get dressed, shower, shave, and lets shove off.” Sue could be very bossy when it suited her, but she had to be with Johnny otherwise they'd never get anywhere sometimes.<br/><br/>At the Con, Sue walks the various stalls, having to stop at EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM to listen to Johnny try and chat up every single girl he came across. Though the girls seemed more interested in talking to Sue and asking how she made her cool outfit. Johnny got fed up and pushes Sue away “Go away you're cramping my style sis.” Sue folds her arms and pouts. “Fine, I'll be over there. BY MYSELF!” She yells at him and storms off. She never had a date, or even a best friend. When Johnny didn't want her around she had to be by herself. And this made her quite angry, after everything she did for him - dressed him for school, made his breakfast, lunch AND dinner, made sure he washed, brushed his teeth. She was practically his mother. And when he didn't want to hang around with her, she felt he was very ungrateful. <br/><br/>Susan found herself talking to an older lady who had made her own dresses at a stall, she delighted in talking fabrics and how they fit together, and she was eager to learn how she made her lovely dresses. And that's when she had a tap on her shoulder from Benjamin Graham. <br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">“Hey whats up? Sorry to barge in but I'm Ben, this is Reed.

Here goes...<br/><br/>“Uh, hi!” </font><br/><br/>Susan blinks at the two guys her age. She was used to men approaching her, and also used to Johnny being over protective. But something was different about these two this time. They weren't your usual jackasses. They both looked geeky, and Reed looked especially shy but she liked that. And suddenly she was excited. People her age wanting to talk to her who had the same likes. Could it be the start of beautiful friendships?<br/><br/>“Um....Hi!” She herself didn't really know what to say but her smile lit up the entire room and her blue pearly eyes shined as bright as the stars. <br/><br/>“Hey, hey, hey, Sue ain't got no time for you.” Johnny finally pulls away from chatting up Poison Ivy to catch his sister being “hit on” or what it looked like. Sue elbows him right in the stomach, still smiling through gritted teeth. “Johnny, be nice!” Sorry about my brother, he's just being protective. <br/><br/>And then Sue and Reed got to talking, therein beginning their close friendship.</div>"

Born to Professor John Grey and Elaine Grey. This fiery red head showed at an early age that she possessed extraordinary power and was very intelligent. She was the Queen Bee in high school, perfect at every aspect of education with straight A grades and also very athletic to boot. She played in all of the sports teams; hockey, softball etc. but she was mostly known for being captain of the girls’ soccer team at Belleville High. She won many trophies and awards for her sporting nature and her academic feats. She dated the most popular guy in school, Duncan for a little while. And if she had leaded a perfectly normal life she would have gone on to have a scholarship with Harvard University. <br/><br/>But at the age of 15, she did not have an ordinary life. Her best friend Angie was ran over by a car, the emotional impact this created, caused Jean’s mutant X gene to kick in - at first telepathy. She felt Angie’s pain and thoughts as she died. This caused such distress to the teenage red head, so much that her other power also awakened – telekinesis. Every car on the road around them exploded into the air by an 'unknown force', which later civilians were told a freak gale force storm had hit out of nowhere. <br/><br/>Later that day Professor Xavier and his then friend and colleague Eric Lehnsherr, before he formed the Brotherhood, was alerted to this phenomenon and visited the street where Jean lived. They discovered that all of the cars on the street, all garden hoses and all objects outside of the houses were levitating. The neighbours were scared and had deserted the whole street. Jean’s parents were very worried by their daughter’s weird abilities. Xavier and Eric saw unlimited potential within her. Xavier foresaw the problems of a distressed Jean being in public while Eric saw only raw power to be used against mutant haters. She had isolated herself from everyone and everything at the loss of her friend. Before they really knew what Jean was, her other school friends knew there was something weird about her after that and shunned her. Jean fell into a depression, but Xavier took her under his wing. <br/><br/>Eric and Charles eventually fell out over the formation of the X-men and the inclusion of Jean grey into the midst over the team's ""purpose"". She was the first female member of the original founding members: Cyclops, Angel, Beast and eventually Storm as their 5th. Xavier taught her how to use her telekinetic and telepathic powers to help people and fight for mutant kind. She and Scott Summers became best friends, even to forming a telepathic link to each other, but before they could start a relationship, Jean had reached a high level of expertise in genetics (under Xavier’s tutelage) and it was time to for her to unlock her mind and go to Harvard University. The two were then separated for 5 years. <br/><br/>Whilst Jean was away studying to become a doctor of genetics, she was able to keep her powers in check thankfully. Unfortunately, Scott became close to another during his depression when Jean left - Lee Forrester, unknowingly it was Emma Frost in disguise. Emma is a member of the Inner Circle, the reason why she used Scott to get close to the X-men was so she could get to Jean, their members tracked down the Phoenix Force that dwelled within her. Emma put a mental impression onto Scott as she is a telepathic mutant, she was also able to block Xavier's mental probes to come across as a normal human. This allows her to infiltrate the X-mansion as Scott's girlfriend. And so instead of Scott and Jean, the iconic mutant couple, it so became Scott and Lee.<br/><br/>When Jean graduated with a PhD, she was heartbroken to find Scott had moved on. But that didn’t let it stop her from becoming a senior member of the X-men and one of the most popular teachers for the newer intake of mutants. She also became the institute's medical doctor; she helped the Professor build Cerebro to seek out new mutants in need. And she was beloved by all her team mates and pupils alike. <br/><br/>Now the year is 2012, Dr. Jean Grey now helps Professor Xavier recruit struggling mutants and teach them as he did for her. The Marvel All-Stars twist - Emma Frost (under another's identity) has finally got her Scott Summers and Jean is unattached, in every storyline/alternative universe Wolverine never gets the love of his life. Maybe it’s finally time he gets a HAPPY ending in this alternate world?

WATCH OUT!” Cyclops screams across a war-torn New York city street. Jean gasps as she dodges a laser beam shot at her from behind, she managed to dodge it just in time. It came from a large spaceship. An alien invasion was being simulated in their war room. <br/><br/>She turns around and throws her hand out toward the ship, it moves backward and smashes against the side of a skyscraper. “Nicely done!” Storm remarks. Jean nods toward her, she'd come a long way from not being able to control her outbursts to being able to make precision quick-thought decisions. She helped her to control her mind powers. Unfortunately, in doing so, she stole that psychic link that she had with Scott and manipulated him into thinking he had more of a link to her as she wanted Cyclops for herself. <br/><br/>Cyclops' eye beam slashed straight through a spaceship, ripping it in half. Jean then puts up a forcefield of telekinetic energy around Cyclops as the other ships concentrate fire at him. “This alien invasion is a bit extreme don't you think?” Maybe she just couldn't take it that seriously. But unbeknownst to the X-men Xavier had a future premonition that involved the Shi'ar Empire. And then devised a programme that incorporated the Shi'ar ships to ready his X-men for the possibility of invasion. Humans were NOT alone in the galaxy.<br/> <br/>“Perhaps. Though I do believe the Professor has his reasons.” Ororo's strong African accent echoes through her wind tunnel over the sounds of battle. Jean could use telepathy and telekinesis at the same time, that's what made her so powerful....and dangerous. Emma Frost had known she was a level 5 mutant since the Circle began to watch the Grey teenager at age 15. The Circle's objective, millenia after millenia, to seek out the 'Phoenix Force' possessors that were born every five hundred years. After the very first Phoenix Force bearer levelled an entire empire a very long time ago with a single wave of fire, the “Templars” of the time formed a secret society dedicated to stop it happening again. The Inner Circle/Hellfire Club is now headed by Sebastian Shaw at present. Emma's objective was to infiltrate the X-men and watch over Jean Grey.<br/><br/>Now came the real test – how much could Jean Grey handle? How much could she be pushed to the limits without breaking? Xavier HAD to know. He didn't want to do this but...he set the danger level to maximum. At this level, there was every chance the X-men could be fatally wounded. But he had faith in Jean, Scott and Storm. He reserved Warren and Hank for rescue on the sidelines. <br/><br/>All of a sudden the mother ship approached the city of New York. Ten times bigger than that of the normal ships. It readied an all mighty beam blast to level the entire city. As it hit, there was an enormous gale force wind that shot toward them. Jean's only option was to shield all three of them in her protective psycho barrier. The force was incredible, she had to dig her feet into the cracked ground by pushing herself downward at the same time. She had to hold it or they would be flown back and be lost in the hurricane winds. A skyscraper falls on top of them. Now she had an incredible weight on top of her as well. <br/><br/>Pushing her power to the very limits of her mind, concentrating on nothing else but survival. Showing no signs of backing down, pushing herself even further. Cyclops blasted through the forcefield and broke the skyscraper into pieces. As Jean gritted her teeth and screamed in pain that her mind was feeling right now, a small fire began to emanate from the centre of Jean's chest. Emma was half way across the city as she felt the Phoenix Force arise. With widened eyes behind a car wheel she gasps <span class=""bb-i"">'No....not now!....'</span> She thought in horror, thinking this was it, the moment Jean would not be strong enough to contain it. And she wasn't there to supress it or absorb it. <br/><br/>But Jean did not unleash the full potential of the Phoenix. The blast wave passes and the skyscraper debris crumbles to the sides of them. Jean could relax, she puts the forcefield down. Panting, she looks around, she gives the other two a thumbs up before passing out completely. The danger room powers down and Beast runs in roaring. “JEAN!!” He picks her up in his huge blue furry arms. “Thank god she's breathing”. She was smiling as she lay there unconscious. She knew she could save them from something awful. Prof X sighed with relief and hung his head down, feeling guilty he just put his prized apprentice through all that. <br/><br/>Storm watches Hank take Jean away to the medic-bay with her arms holding her elbows. She was worried. Emma pulls up outside the mansion, she'd found the Phoenix Force of this era. And she was the one who was going to have to stop Jean from killing millions. She and the Circle would have to keep an even closer eye on her from now on during her upcoming Harvard days. ""Now just to get in close to Scott...as Lee Forrester."" Emma schemed.<br/><br/>Thankfully, not a day went by with any incident that Jean needed to use such a force again. That is until 2012.</div>"

His mother, Elizabeth Howlett, was married to John Howlett, a rich plantation owner. His father, James Logan, was one of the grounds keepers at John Howlett's plantation. Elizabeth had become dissatisfied with her husband's lack of sex drive at some point in their marriage, and had started a secret relationship with James Logan to satisfy her needs. When Elizabeth found out that she was with James' child, she tried to pass him off as John's son. The ruse was quickly seen through when James was born and looked nothing like his father; indeed, he shared a number of physical attributes with James Logan. When John found out, he spiraled into crippling depression. Elizabeth and John's marriage splintered as each threatened divorce at the drop of a dime, but never truly went through with it for fear of their own son, John Howlett, Jr.<br/><br/>Grandpa Howlett, father of James Howlett, saw his son's failure and set out to raise his grandsons correctly. He would use physical violence to punish young James and John, stating the moniker ""Firm, but Fair"" as explanation whenever his methods were brought into question. The two boys grew up in relative peace until John Howlett, Jr. first manifested his powers. A group of locals bullies had attacked his illegitimate brother, and John had stepped in to stop them. One of the kids drew a knife when the fight started to become heated. In response, John's body forced the young Howlett into popping his claws. John Howlett chased off the bullies. Eventually Grandpa Howlett learned of the event. Deeming his son a 'demon' for his mutant powers, Grandpa Howlett paid off a group of local thugs to drown John to death.<br/><br/>James was devastated. His only brother, the only person who seemed to care about him, was dead. His parents were too busy fighting to notice that James had started sneaking out of the house, looking for the men who killed John. Eventually, Wolverine found them, and used his own claws to kill the murderers out of revenge. James later found out that his Grandpa had paid the gang to attack John, and confronted his grandfather. When Mister Howlett tried to hit Logan, the boy lashed out and killed his grandpa too. The town rallied together and burned down Elizabeth and John's estate, and forced Logan to leave because of his crimes and mutation. The child was forced to hunt for survival. He became adept at killing, both people and animals alike.<br/><br/>Eventually Logan met an Indian belonging to the Blackfoot Tribe. The Native American adopted the savage Canadian child, bringing Logan back to the tribe where Logan would spend the rest of his pubescent life. Among the Blackfoots, Logan learned how to hunt and live off the land. The natives accepted the boy as one of them, even going so far as to name Logan ""Wolverine,"" after his strange mutation. While among the Blackfoot Tribe, Logan made friends with a pair of children, Rose and Dog. It was Rose who taught Wolverine the value of life, no matter where it came from. These teachings would later guide James on the path to good instead of evil. Dog taught Logan how to track. They would follow deer for miles through the woods, as silent as the darkness and swift as the wind. It was during these lessons that Wolverine's enhanced senses came into fruition. This is also where James met the first love of his life: Silver Fox, a beautiful Indian girl. <br/><br/>Here, with the tribe, James Howlett was happy. But it could not be so. A mysterious figure, Romulus, ordered Victor Creed to attack the tribe. The Blackfoot Tribe was slaughtered, and James would have died if not for his healing factor. Sabertooth dealt a powerful blow to Wolverine's head, causing James' memories to become fuddled and distorted. Knocked into a near feral state by his future archenemy, James traveled across Canada for the next seven years. He lived like an animal until he met an old miner named Smitty, who offered to take the boy in. James lived with Smitty until the start of the Great War.<br/><br/>Both Smitty and James (now going by the name Logan) joined up with the Canadian military when Britain joined the Great War. Smitty and James were separated when Wolverine (under the influencing hand of Romulus) was conscripted into the Devil's Brigade, a special forces/black ops group that didn't answer to the government. The brigade was led by one Silas Burr, who would one day become the mercenary known as Cyber. Romulus used the Devil's Brigade to fulfill his own agenda as the war progressed, and the brigade was sent to fight in Europe. At one point, the Canadian government attempted to arrest Silas Burr for war crimes he committed previously (namely, burning down a school full of German children) but Victor Creed appeared briefly and freed Cyber.<br/><br/>Wolverine was apart of a massive battle that occurred at Ypers, Belgium on April 15, 1915. It was here that Logan first encountered the forces of the Sentinel Order; a secret society made up of Germany's most rich and powerful, headed by the Trask family. Leading the Sentinels on the battlefield was a powerful angel named Azrael. Wolverine engaged Azrael in melee, and the two immortal warriors crossed blade and claws. The duel ended in the Angel of Death being sent back to whence he came, and Wolverine being cursed with eternal depression for as long as he lived.<br/><br/>After the Great War ended, Logan returned to Canada and lived alone until the next World War. When Hitler declared war on all of Western Europe, Logan once again joined the Canadian military. This time, Romulus did not have his puppet join the Devil's Brigade. Rather, Romulus had Logan placed in a unit assigned under Steve Rogers' command. So Wolverine teamed up with the original Captain America and his sidekick, Bucky Barnes. They were tasked with bringing down Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker and HYDRA, who were reportedly creating some kind of doomsday weapon. Logan and the Captain took down HYDRA and disabled the weapon before it was used, but Von Strucker escaped capture. Later, Wolverine was tasked with in infiltrating Mandipoor and freeing a group of children kidnapped by The Hand. Logan defeated The Viper and her ninja allies, freeing the children (one of which being a young Natasha Romanov) and bringing them back to Britain. During the war Logan encountered a vampire known as Bloodscream, an Asgardian troll named Roughouse, a mutant named the Silver Samurai, and even Nick Fury himself. Wolverine had been present in Nagasaki when the nuke was dropped on the city. If not for his healing factor, Logan would have died.<br/><br/>After the war ended, Logan decided to stay in Japan. He met a master martial artist and Samurai named Orgun, who offered to train Wolverine. Logan accepted, and the two worked together from dawn till dusk for years honing Logan's combat skills, but armed and unarmed. He also learned the code of honor that all Samuari followed, and took it up himself on Orgun's suggestion. Now knowledgeable of the code of Bushido, Logan found himself a home. It was then that he met a beautiful woman named Itsu, whom Logan started a family with. One day, while Logan was out training with Ogun, Romulus sent Sabertooth to murder Itsu and steal Wolverine's son, Daken. Devastated, James Howlett returned to Canada where he was brought on to the Weapon X Program by Romulus. Professor Thorton, Dr. Abraham Cornelius, and Carol Hines were brought in to examine the mutant. It was when The Professor discovered the extent of Wolverine's healing factor that he had the idea to cover his bones in Adamantium. The procedure would kill any normal human, and most superhumans, but with a healing factor like Logan's his body could fight off the Adamantium poisoning and keep him alive. Thorton's procedure was given the green light, and they proceeded to implant Wolverine with the Adamantium upgrades.<br/><br/>With that, Logan's superiors had his mind wiped once more and had Wolverine join Team X. Team X was a group mutants who worked as black ops special forces troops who did whatever Romulus told them to. No one knew exactly who Romulus was, but they knew that he was an ancient mutant with the ability to coarse animals to follow his bidding. The animal within Wolervine had betrayed him, and Logan was under Romulus' control for as long as his feral mind remained intact. For Logan to break free, he would have to acknowledge that he was more man than monster.<br/><br/>Team X consisted of Wolverine, Sabertooth, Maverick, John Wraith, Mastodon and later Deadpool, Lady Deathstrike and X-23. The latter three were all created using Wolverine's DNA and possessed various parts of Wolverine's mutation.<br/><br/>Team X operated during various wars and conflicts throughout the years. They battled the Sentinel Order's Asian division in Korea during the Korean War. When the Cold War began, Wolverine and Sabertooth were sent to Russia to locate a device capable of creating Carbonium, a metal similar to Adamantium but easier to synthesize, and less poisonous to humans when handled without the proper equipment. They encountered the agent known as Omega Red before escaping with the device and delivering it to Romulus. The team split up briefly when the Vietnam War began, with Wolverine sent to take down an out of control super soldier named Nuke. Logan succeeded in bringing the man down, and brought him back to Weapon X before being sent back to Vietnam. Wolverine continued to assassinate various politicians, generals and activists who stood in the way of mutant progress. Romulus' forces clashed with the Trask family and their Sentinel Order as history continued to move on, oblivious to the secret war occurring in the shadows.<br/><br/>Now it is 2012, and hiding their war is becoming harder and harder. The newest member of the Trask dynasty, Bolivar Trask, has taken over Trask Industries in America and started to work on the Sentinel program. Mutants are going missing every day, and Romulus believes Trask is somehow involved. So he was assigned Wolverine with the task of hunting down everyone involved in the scheme and bringing them to justice, freeing his mutant brothers and sisters in the process.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">MUTANT ABILITIES/SKILLS:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">TOP SECRET</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name="" Powers"" type=""button""> Powers [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Bone Claws: One of Wolverine's mutations, Logan was born with six 12-inch long claws that he can protract and retract out of and into his forearm at will. When retracted, these claws are housed between the skin and muscles of his arms. When popped, the claws come out between the knuckles of Logan's hands and cut through the skin and muscle located there. These wounds are temporary thanks to Wolverine's enhanced healing factor, though it's still quite painful whenever Logan releases them. These claws, like the rest of Wolverine's bones, are coated in Adamantium and can cut through nearly anything.<br/><br/>Healing Factor: Another of Wolverine's many mutations, Logan possesses a powerful healing factor. This healing factor can repair Logan's body from nearly any injury, from anything as minor as a cut to complete and total vaporization. As long as a single cell remains alive, Wolverine can regenerate his body; combined with his Adamantium laced bone structure, Logan is effectively immortal. The time it takes Logan to heal depends upon the injuries he has sustained. Something like a small cut in his skin will heal in seconds. More complex structures, such as bones or organs, take minutes. If reduced to nothing but his Adamantium skeleton, it would take Wolverine anywhere from thirty to forty five minutes to regenerate back to full strength.<br/><br/>Superhuman Senses: Yet another of Logan's mutations, Wolverine's senses are far superior to those of humans and even animals. Logan can see for miles with perfect clarity in the dark. He can hear a pin drop from a mile away, if he focuses his hearing to their maximum strength. Logan has learned to control his hearing to keep it from being distracting. Wolverine can pick out scents from things that haven't been nearby in weeks, and is able to track them across continents. Combining all of his enhanced senses together, Wolverine is able to detect when a person is lying due to chemicals changes in their systems.<br/><br/>Super Strength: Thanks to his constant cellular regeneration and unbreakable skeleton, Logan has developed strength impossible for a normal human. Wolverine can bench press two tons, snap chains with his bare hands, and throw half a ton of weight across a room.<br/><br/>Super Speed: Similar to his Super Strength, Wolverine has used his mutations to surpass human limitations. Logan can sprint fast enough that he disappears from the human eye, and can effectively dodge bullets by following the gunman's hand and moving out of the way before the shooter's eyes register that Logan has, indeed, moved.<br/><br/>Enhanced Immune System: Logan's healing factor extends to protecting him from not only physical injury but also sickness and extreme weather conditions. Wolverine can hold his breathe for forty minutes before passing out. He can sleep in subzero climates completely naked.<br/><br/>Adamantium-laced Skeleton: The Weapon X Program has surrounded all of James Howlett's bones in the indestructible metal known as Primary Adamantium. Nothing on earth or beyond can bend or dent it. The only powers assumed capable of damaging Adamantium are cosmic forces like the Phoenix Force or Galactus. If this is the case, however, is not known for sure.<br/><br/>Martial Arts Master: When Logan was conscripted into the Weapon X Program, he had a number of martial art styles taught to him by the world's premier masters in the arts. Some of the styles Wolverine has mastered include: Jiu-Jitsu, Taekwondo, Silat, Kung-Fu, Muay Thai, Krav Maga, and American boxing. Logan Howlett is one of the most versatile martial artists on the planet, with the skill to go toe-to-toe with Captain America, Black Panther, and even the immortal Iron Fist. While not as technically masterful as those listed, Wolverine's powers make up for it in a fight.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">SAMPLE STORY ARCS:</span> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Enemy of the State:</span> Wolverine has been brainwashed by the mysterious men behind the Weapon X Program, and tasked with the job of eliminating various enemies to mutantkind. Logan is forced to fight heroes and villains alike as he rampages across North America killing politicians, generals and activists in a quest that is not his.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Freedom:</span> Howlett discovers that he has been brainwashed, and breaks free from the Weapon X facility. Wolverine spends this time tracking down everyone involved in the Program, trying to find out who he was before the Program got a hold of him and altered his brain.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Redemption:</span> His memories now returned to him, Wolverine sets out to redeem himself of his past. Logan joins SHIELD and their fight against injustice as he desperately tries to forget the atrocities he was forced to commit. This is the time when he meets Xavier, and the X-Men.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span>: <br/><br/>""My name's Logan Howlett. People call me the Wolverine. I'm the best I am at what I do, and what I do...isn't very nice."" Logan was perched atop a gargoyle overlooking a nearby hotel. He'd climbed up the side of the cathedral earlier that day, and had been waiting up here for his target to return to his bedroom. While he waited, Wolverine liked to do these little recording. It kept the assassin sane at times like this; times when he was alone, moments from taking another life. It was funny. You'd think someone like Logan would have gotten over the whole fuss of murder a long time ago, with all that blood on his hands. But truth is? You never get over it. Poppin' the claws hurts every time.<br/><br/>""I've been tracking this guy, name's Henry Jenkins, for a couple'a weeks. S'pose to be some big shot in New York City's underworld. My handlers seem to think Mister Jenkins runs a Mutant Trafficking ring; one of the biggest in these United States o' America. He's staying in a fancy hotel downtown, waiting for a couple'a buyers from overseas to meet him there tomorrow. But he won't live to see tomorrow. 'Cuz he is gettin' a visit from yours truly.""<br/><br/>Logan tapped on his ear, shutting off the recording device for the time being. He'd seen something. Wolverine brought a pair of futuristic binoculars up to his eyes, pressing one of the many buttons on the side. Logan's vision washed blue as the thermal visor came to life. Logan maneuvered the device around the hotel penthouse, watching the people inside. They were little more than blobs of yellow and red heat, but Logan compensated for that using his sense of smell. If he took a big enough whiff, he could pick out the individual smells from each and every person inside the hotel and outside on the streets. Logan could also smell the garbage truck turning the corner. And the hot dog stand on the sidewalk under him. ""There ya are.."" Wolverine muttered, watching the front door to the penthouse open. Four more shapes entered the apartment and made their way towards the dinning room. He could smell the target's sweat from here. That was definitely Henry Jenkins.<br/><br/>Wolverine pulled a grappling hook off his belt, before placing the binoculars back into his backpack. It wasn't elegant, but it worked. Logan pointed the piece of equipment at the penthouse, aiming for the roof. He fired it off, the hook flying through the air silently before slamming through the concrete and brick of the hotel roof. He tested the line for strength. Once Logan was sure it would hold all three hundred pounds of him, Wolverine secured his backpack to his back before jumping off the gargoyle and swinging across the street hundreds of feet in the air. For a second, Wolverine felt like he was Spider-Man; what with all the swinging across New York and such. But there wasn't time for such childish thoughts, so Logan set those aside and harnessed the animal inside.<br/><br/>The sound of glass shattering alerted the seven guards inside the penthouse to Wolverine's presence. They drew their sidearms, making their way towards the hallway where the sound had come from. The first one to get there was met with three claws through the skull. As Wolverine pulled the dead bodyguard off his claws, shoving him away with a kick to the dead man's chest, two more guards appeared from behind. They brought their guns up and opened fire, unloading on the intruder. Wolverine roared, flinging their buddy over his shoulders like he was filled with feathers. The three men collided and tumbled to the floor. Wolverine crossed the hallway in the blink of an eye, impaling both of the downed gunmen in their chests. More guards were approaching. Wolverine glanced at the ceiling. Perfect.<br/><br/>Two more guards walked into the hallway. They found their three comrades, dead. Stabbed to death. One of the thugs bent down to examine the dead for clues, while his partner watched his back. Suddenly a pair of clawed hands fell from the sky, stabbing into the bodyguard's shoulders. Logan dragged the screaming guy into the air, before tossing him out of the broken window. The guy screamed the whole way down. The second goon rolled around on the ground, moving to the wall as he looked around. Terrified. Panicking. Wolverine loved it. ""W-Where are you?!"" He screamed. ""Here."" The mercenary appeared in full view. Standing in front of the mercenary, was the Wolverine. Clothed in orange and black spandex, claws extending from his knuckles, <a href=""http://img11.deviantart.net/dea7/i/2009/193/0/d/x_men_evolution_wolverine_pose_by_gatnne.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Wolverine</a> was a terrifying sight.<br/><br/>In the bedroom, the final two guards stood next to Henry Jenkins. Jenkins was utterly afraid, clutching his fat knees to his chest as he tried to prevent himself from fainting. There was a knock on the door. The guards brought their sub machine guns up to their hips, opening fire. ""Stop!"" Jenkins shouted. ""Stop shooting, damn it!"" The two goons complied, and their was nothing but silence as they reloaded their guns and waited. Then the door knob began to turn. Jenkins started screaming bloody murder as Wolverine opened the door and dashed into the room. Jenkins' bodyguards tried to defend him. They really did. But they couldn't even see their attacker, let alone have time to aim at him. Wolverine slashed both of their throats open, sending blood spraying across the bed room as they fell on the floor. Dead.<br/><br/>""P-Please don't kill me. I'll give you anything. Anything! Please!""<br/><br/>Wolverine grabbed Jenkins by his sweaty, grubby throat and slammed him against the wall. Jenkins started to cry, and pissed himself. Logan growled, placing his hand against Jenkins' chin. Two claws shot up, centimeters from hitting Henry. ""You know where the third one's comin' up."" Logan growled. ""Tell me where the kids are, or I turn ya into a shish kabob."" The guy nodded furiously. ""49th and Roe. There's a warehouse on the docks. T-The kids are in the basement."" Wolverine pushed harder against the guys chin, his last claw barely poking out. ""NO! T-There's a dozen guards, all armed! A-And...And...A boat's comin' for them some time tomorrow."" Logan wasn't satisfied yet, so he let the claw prick Jenkins' neck. ""There's a hundred and twenty three kids down there, all mutants! From six to eighteen! They're suppose to go to Trask Industries in Boston. I was going to meet a representative from Trask tomorrow. That's all I know, I swear."" Wolverine took a whiff of the child slaver. He was telling the truth. ""See ya in Hell, bub. Say hi to Azrael for me."" The final claw shot up into Jenkins' brain and out the top of his skull, killing him instantly.<br/><br/>""My names Wolverine. I'm the best I am at what I do, and what I do...I love ta do more than anything else in the world.""</div></div>"

The two grew up in the war torn Sokovia, where even from an early age they fought against the corrupted Sokovian Government at Erik's urging.  While Wanda was very much for about the cause, Pietro wasn't quite as much, however he deeply cared for Wanda and went along with everything more to keep her safe rather than fighting the power.<br/><br/>As Pietro and Wanda grew older their X-Genes became activated and an already active and impatient Pietro gained superhuman speed.  Making him even more impatient and irritable.  Still he held to his own convictions and using their powers the two worked in guerrilla operations together until Erik Lehnsherr took Pietro aside and offered him a chance to do some work in another area.<br/><br/>With the growing number of mutants causing civil unrest.  Pietro joined his adoptive father in The Brotherhood.  There though he watched Erik clashing with respected college Charles Xavier on how to handle the crisis.  The more of it he watched, the more Pietro lost respect for his adoptive father and in a moment that shocked everyone involved.  Told Erik he was staying with Xavier when Erik left to form his own group.<br/><br/>Legally adopted and registered into a US citizen.  Pietro didn't join the X-Men as it was being formed, instead wanting to find himself as all his life he had seemingly done things for other people.  He discovered punk music and movies, both of which gave him a kind of joy he never really had before.  He started learning how to play guitar as a hobby and has an impressive DVD and VHS collection.  Though considering his snarky and simple minded approach to problem solving left Xavier cautious about having someone he viewed as the son he didn't realize he wanted being in the X-Men.  Especially considering that Pietro's adopted father was rapidly becoming an enemy.  Making Charles worry about where Pietro's allegiances will lay.  However Pietro has assured Charles that he wants nothing to do with his former father.  Having gone so far as to dye his normally white hair brown to show his changed ways.  While he searches though for his sister Wanda however, Pietro has put his attention to being a part of the X-Men.  Knowing that he's got a long way to go in order to earn their trust.<br/>Power and Abilities: Able to reach speeds around 770 mphs, aka the speed of sound.  All while not suffering from any wind or frictional problems.  With his powers Pietro has very high reaction times, and can accomplish feats such as running across the top of water, running up the side of buildings, and running in a circle fast enough to create whirlwind vortexes.  Though he hasn't quite perfected it yet, Pietro can also vibrate the molecules in his body fast enough to essentially phase through solid objects.<br/>Sample Story Arcs: - Pietro's first and foremost goal is to show his new found teammates in the X-Men that he can be trusted despite his past.<br/><br/>Pietro after some time searching finds Wanda only to realize she's changed for the worst.<br/><br/>- (Hypothetical idea) When the X-Men have Pietro play double agent and join the Brotherhood as a means of stopping them from inside. Pietro struggles with finding complete acceptance in the group and has to choose if he can stay loyal to the X-Men.<br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>Pietro sighed irritated as he glanced back over at the clock, 10 pm.  Once again all he could do was regret making it to the bar so quickly as the rest of his friends were apparently taking their sweet time.  Sure Pietro could of just borrowed one of Xavier's cars and just drove to the sleazy bar like a normal person.  But that wasn't Pietro's style at all.  Plus just sitting in New York City traffic would've been worst.  Gritting his teeth Pietro ran fingers though his chocolate brown hair as he glanced around.  It was hard to explain it to someone who didn't understand.  But while they were all suppose to meet up around 10, even just the few minutes of waiting was killing the Eastern European.<br/><br/>Finally though they all arrived, Pietro had to bite his tongue as he said his greetings to them while holding back the string of expletives he wanted to spew out for them making him wait around and drink down a screwdriver while the band was doing its last tune ups.  For all he knew though Pietro's friends didn't know about his superhuman running.  They have said they were completely cool with mutants in discussions in the past.  However as Pietro would say to other mutants, “My powers are no body's fucking business...”<br/><br/>“Alright so what the Hell band is this?”  Pietro asked, his voice still dripping with the Eastern European accent his always had, as the performers were on stage about to start.  “They're called The Dazzlers, some group out of LA.”  One of his friends called back as the feedback from the speakers hissed off of a plugged in guitar.

The Magzi, the most feral tribe of trolls, had been temporarily settled in the realm of Asgard when they raided a group of travelling merchants. A bloody massacre followed, with the trolls tearing down their prey with ease. One life however was spared. The tribe’s chief, H’roth, took one of the merchants, a young woman prisoner. She would have been happier to have been killed in the attack, due to H’roth deciding to make her one of his many “wives”. Nine months later, the woman gave birth to a child. H’roth’s daughter. Unfortunately the woman died shortly after giving birth.<br/> <br/>The child, despite her Asgardian looks, was raised by the Magzi due to her heritage. Over the years, the girl grew into a feral beast, clothing herself in the skin of a dead troll and using nothing but her teeth and strength to hunt with the rest of her tribe, feasting on  the carcass anything they caught; animal or Asgardian. <br/> <br/>She, along with numerous other Magzi Trolls, were soon apprehended by the mighty Odinson, who after discovering that she was part Asgardian, brought her back to the city of Asgard. Here, the Asgardian’s gave her the name Gunna, after her mother. They also tried to introduce her to Asgardian culture, as well as somehow wipe the teachings of the Magzi from her mind. They were met with little success, with Gunna, nicknamed Troll by the guards, attacking any who came near her. While the Odinson and the rest of the Asgardians refused to give up, she began to receive fewer tutoring sessions, as well as being kept in the Asgard dungeon.<br/> <br/>On the dawn of Ragnarok, several inmates of the dungeon who had heard or sensed the coming end, architected a grand breakout of the facility. Gunna, was led by a mixed group of rogue Asgardians and Dark Elves out of the dungeon, with the group passing through the armoury on their way. Here, they sought to retrieve their equipment, as well any additional weapons they could use for their escape. During this time, Gunna began to inquisitively explore the armoury, with her soon discovering Jarnbjorn, the Odinson’s former weapon. Drawn to the power of the battle axe, Gunna claimed it as her own, before continuing with her escape with the group, with them travelling through a hidden portal in the Asgardian mountains.<br/> <br/>Strangely, Gunna was later discovered by a group of Ravagers on a distant planet, located near Knowhere, the ancient severed head of a Celestial, as well as the home of the Collector’s infamous museum. The Ravagers, finding Gunna sleeping among the eaten bodies of her fellow escapees, decided to capture her, selling her into the Collector’s collection on Knowhere. Here she encountered the Collector himself, as well as another one of his keepsakes; a dog from the planet Earth named Cosmo. During their times in the museum, Cosmo began to communicate with a reluctant Gunna through the use of telepathy, an ability the animal gained after experimentation from the Collector. Gunna soon went through similar experimentations herself, with her receiving a Translation Implant. <br/> <br/>During her time among the Collector’s collection, Gunna soon began to warm to Cosmo and the way he spoke to her in her head. She became more calm, as well as her learning to see the animal as more than simple prey. <br/> <br/>That was when the Kree attacked, practically destroying Knowhere and the Collector’s museum. Luckily, Cosmo and Gunna were some of the few survivors of the attack, with the two managing to get free from their holding cells. They managed to find refuge in a secure sector of the Knowhere station, where they watched their former prison, the Collector’s museum, burn to the ground. Using his telepathic abilities, Cosmo accessed the mind of their attackers, with him learning that this attack had merely been a means for them to retrieve a powerful weapon. A weapon which they planned to use to attack the planet Xandar!<br/> <br/>Cosmo, along with Gunna who wanted to remain with her new fuzzy friend, decided that it was up to them to stop them. Forming the Guardians of Knowhere after the arrival of X-51, a spectacular machine man from the planet Earth, the three ventured in X-51’s ship, The Shockwave Rider, to Xandar, with the heroes seeking to stop the carnage.</div></div></div></div> <br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers &amp; Abilities</span></div> <div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Due to being an Asgardian and Troll hybrid, Gunna possesses a mixture of all of the various superhuman abilities of each species, including superhuman strength, speed, stamina and durability. She also has an extended longevity, although due to her troll heritage, this isn’t to the extent of most Asgardians. From her troll physiology, Gunna possesses superhuman senses, in the form of both heightened smell and hearing, as nearly perfect vision due to trolls mostly living underground. <br/><br/>Due to the differences in her superhuman durability to that of her former Magzi Troll brethren, Gunna wears the skin of a former Magzi Troll for extra protection, with the fur-like armour being resistant to even some of the most advanced weaponry.

It’s time for wakink up now Gunna…</span><br/><br/>Gunna Sijurvald did as she was instructed, her right eye opening slowly. Her eyes adapted to the darkness quickly, the room falling into shape in a matter of milliseconds. Room wasn’t really a grand enough word to use to describe where the young troll girl found herself. Ahead of her, through the illuminated darkness, was an enormous cathedral like hall, filled to the brim with the strangest collection of items she had ever seen. The walls seemed to be line with transparent containers of all sorts of sizes, each containing something different from exotic looking fauna, to monstrous beasts and monsters. Gunna bared her teeth and growled loudly at the sight of such creatures, only to be dumbfounded when none of them seemed to react. He barked once more, slamming her first angrily against the glass in front of her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I don’t think they hear you…</span><br/><br/>Gunna reeled around at the comment, intent to see where it had come from. It took her a few seconds to wonder as to why she had been unable to hear which direction the sound had come from, before she realized that the voice had been all in her head. Panicking, the girl launched herself around her container, gripping her head madly. Was she going crazy?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">You are not goink crazy Gunna... </span><br/><br/>The return of the voice, whose accent confused Gunna greatly, didn’t help one bit. She continued her panicking for several moments, launching herself about, before sinking to the floor of her container in a feat of acceptance. The glass place had made her crazy. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No crazy. Is me. Cosmo…</span><br/><br/>That was when Gunna spotted it. It was sat a few metres ahead of her in its own container, watching. The animal seemed to be wearing a set of strange, white garments, fitted with what appeared to be a bright red collar. It was the face that excited Gunna the most however. She knew at once from the long snout and floppy ears what it was. Food.<br/><br/>“KILL!” The Asgardian shouted as she leapt to her feet eagerly once more, diving forward towards the animal. It would seem that she had forgotten about the transparent walls of her own little pod, as she hadn’t even left the ground for even a second when she collided with the glass. She fell as quickly as she had risen, landing in a heap on the floor. <br/><br/>In seconds she had readjusted herself and was back on her feet, hands against the glass and staring hungrily at the beast. The animal in question had barely moved, except to tilt its head and wag its shaggy tail.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Not prey.

The core founders of the group included Erik Lehnsherr and Charles Xavier - among other faces, many of which who were the largely unknown phenomena named mutants. It appeared afterwards that Lehnsherr had been seeking mutants to join the group, though it was in truth only dedicated to general aid and relief. The group's base of operation - Sokovia - however, was an unfortunate place to be at the time. Corruption and oppression ran rampant in the streets, and all of it originated from the powerful Government that ruled the country. Erik, noticing these drastic afflictions perpetrated by humans, rose to lead the syndicate into direct conflict with the corrupt Sokovian Government. The President and the Government together had plagued Lehnsherr's time in Sokovia - damning him and his accomplices to endless labours and extortionate taxes. Wanda and Pietro Maximoff, two siblings with an undisclosed past and profound dormant abilities, grew up in the guerilla warfare of the Brotherhood-turned-terrorist group under the protection and guidance of Lehnsherr. The two quickly took to him as a father figure where there previously was none - Wanda admiring his natural leadership skills and obvious superiority to the common man. <br/><br/>With the continued state of distress in Sokovia, the ranks of the group expanded. It was renamed to the 'Shadow Conquerors' and Charles Xavier with some of his fellow accomplices were becoming more at odds with Erik's chosen tactics. The leaders, Lehnsherr's specifically chosen compatriots, employed more elite and experienced operatives. They primarily only included the oppressed populace of Sokovia, but hungry eyes looking in from outside the country soon became involved. The Shadow Conquerors altered once again from an organisation fuelled by anger to a bloodthirsty group of killers - at least out in the field. Sokovia descended into chaos, and that's when the X-Genes of the twins came to fruition. Chaos became a homestead for Wanda, and Pietro himself gained the ability to move at superhuman speed. They eventually adopted titles to pair with their gifts: Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. Erik took great interest, more so than before, in the two. He saw they were bound for great things.<br/><br/>Wanda had always seemed destined to continue Erik's quest against the Government, if something were to take him out of the field. Coincidentally, he did leave with Wanda's coming of age - along with her brother, Pietro, and many of the mutants involved with Sokovia. They had departed for the United States soon after a seismic separation had occurred between Erik's Shadow Conquerors and Xavier's more pacifist ideas. The two groups were at complete odds, purely over mutant affairs and the position of mutantkind in relation to humanity. Wanda had been interested in staying with her adoptive father and becoming involved in the mutant situation instead of the war with the Government - but she had grown too attached to the former cause. She had grown up with the endless conflicts, and had been involved to a much greater extent than Pietro.<br/><br/>The Maximoff twins had been close physically throughout their upbringing, though it was apparent that as time progressed - the two drifted apart mentally. Pietro was not devoted to the cause that Wanda and her 'father' Erik had taken to heart, and Wanda's growing urge for vengeance against the perpetrators of all the negativity she saw around her only increased. She still loved him, but it was unrequited, a love born out of the shared blood that flowed through their veins. She looked upon a lot of his qualities with disdain, but perhaps with the right counsel he could be prepared for greater purposes. Perhaps, when she had finished crushing the Government, she would seek him out in America. <br/>Wanda had always shuddered when people mentioned the future. Fighting the Government had been her whole life - could she find a similar cause to partake in? Would it have to be for the good of the common man? As she matured into her mutant life, Erik's phrase constantly reoccurred in her mind - '<span class=""bb-i"">homo superior</span>'. She knew that he and her brother were fighting over mutantkind on another, unfamiliar, continent. She certainly considered the plight within her possible options. She had decided to leave, after the war was over.

She had pondered about the rather erratic strike she had ordered, though only briefly. The secret war had been going on for years now, and its conflicts were pitiful and sparse. Then the enemy had suddenly introduced a third party. <br/><br/>""Latveria."" She hissed, to none but herself. A cacophony of cultivated fields were split roughly by the border - a large and imposing stretch of stone and steel, manned and defended by the Latverian monarch's soldiers. She had never seen the monarch himself, though the name 'Doom' had been a topic of conversation throughout her entire life, and the rumours were often unbelievable and terrifying. She was greatly interested by the man - if he was even mortal - and the drastic move by the enemy to target his state had made her chuckle with excitement. She knew it would not be long until this 'Doom' was before her. <br/>The strange defenders of the border were unlike anything she'd expected. They were all identical, large and stationary - like gargoyles defending a medieval keep. Penetrating colours of green and silver shone with the moon's glare as her pawns approached.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">If they had the audacity to steal under the guise of me, then what else is there for me to do but raise the stakes</span>?<br/>She sneered as her gift held her high in the air. It was a picture of twisted beauty if one were to see her up close.<br/>She focused on the menial response of the Latverian soldiers as her Shadows let loose with silenced gunfire. They appeared remarkably stalwart, barely even fazed by the bullets that should have proven fatal. They began to mechanically move towards her pawns. She wasn't particularly unnerved by the strange soldier's formability - if dead bodies were produced in Government uniforms then she didn't care, even if they were disguises. She had worked with one of her Conquerors, a drunkard but efficient strategist named Ivan Jankovic. They had agreed on this course of action shortly before she had sent the man to dispose of the potentially threatening Zebediah Killgrave.<br/>She giggled to the clouds amongst her. She was manoeuvring the pieces of the war chessboard with a meticulous pragmatism. No matter how far her pawns made it into Latveria, the first signs of conflict would still have sufficed. Doom would be alert soon enough, and the monarch's weaponry would let her crush the enemy once and for all after she had twisted his strings into a trade agreement. And if not... well, she had her gift.<br/>For was she not Wanda Maximoff, master of Chaos?<br/><br/>Was she not the Scarlet Witch?</div></div>"

For most of his childhood a degree of his parents past seemed shaded in ambiguity. This was due to the fact of Henry Pym (Sr.) and Janet Van Dyne’s former work with the federal agency known as SHIELD, a secret that the two tried to keep buried throughout their children’s youth. As it is known, Henry Pym founded <font color=""#aba000"">Pym Technologies</font> whilst he also invested in his wife’s start-up company called <font color=""#aba000"">Yellowjacket</font> — a fashion design firm that due to Janet’s expertise in business and enterprise led to a successful venture that became one of the most relevant fashion &amp; design firms in New York City.<br/><br/>After a brief attendance at Empire University Hank found himself bored and feeling anxious at home. His father and mother had recently separated due to an altercation between them that led to additional stress at the Pym Estate. Whilst his sister fell into academia as a full-on exile Hank seemed to approach his stressful feelings in the opposite direction as he began to get into a string of debates that turned into messy arguments with his father. After several of these arguments and the issues that followed Hank decided he was done with New York and took a flight to Europe for an extended period of time. In the period that followed he began wandering as a sort of wayward soul as he traveled through Transia, Sokovia, Slokovia, Lichtenbad, Latveria, and other countries as he tried to not only get away from the expectations of his family and his peers but also to gather his thoughts— to become something closer to himself and not “Henry Pym II”. However, years later in 2011 Hank returned when Hope, the only one he kept in contact with, reached out to him telling Hank that he had to come home immediately—something had happened.<br/><br/>Henry Pym, Hank’s father had been hospitalized. Annoyed at however this could’ve happened, whatever bridges he thought were broken between him and his father seemed to reconstruct overnight as he took flight from Paris to New York. His father’s condition brought the fractured family together in a weird fit of irony – something that Hank would reflect on much later. Following clues left by his father, he discovered the culprit of his father’s condition being Pym Technologies co-founder, <font color=""#aba000"">Elias Weams</font>, who was on the brink of discovering “Weams Particles” and continuing a project that Pym wanted buried due to the dangers of not only development of the technologies but also the military consequences that were bound to follow-- Pym refused to allow his company to go the way of Stark or Osborn. Knowing Pym was in his way Weams hired an individual to take care of him named <font color=""#aba000"">Hargood Wickham</font>. After discovering his father’s “Ant Man” suit, his journal, and connecting the plot to Wickham and Weams he proceeded with stopping Weams’ intentions by donning the Ant-Man suit and infiltrating the facility to sabotage the fruits of Weams’ labor. This would end with a battle (after dispatching Wickham) between Hank and Weams’ – but not before Weams donned the “<font color=""#aba000"">Gigantus</font>” suit himself driving him insane in the process. When Weams was defeated he found himself at the center spotlight to the world and the vigilante career for Hank had begun.<br/><br/>It seemed like the Pym family was back on track with the recovery of Henry Pym and his rekindling of his relationship with Janet, Hope’s extreme success at taking control of Pym Technologies in the aftermath of Elias Weams betrayal and attempted murder of her father, and Hank’s own passion for helping others through the identity of Ant-Man— things were settling back in. Deciding to stay out of Pym Technologies Hank looked to focusing full-time on helping others and looking into the history of the AST-62 suit through discussions with his father. As 2011 came to a close he found himself stopping many threats unaware that there was one just looming on the horizon…<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#787878""><span class=""bb-b"">Genius Level Intelligence</span></font> – Henry has inherited the intellectual capacity and capability of both of his parents and despite not using it as often as he should still shows that he is an extremely smart as well as creative individual who thinks consistently out of the box and on his feet.

Maria’s brows narrowed and her cheeks rose in agitation as she slammed her foot down in Hank’s apartment in New York City trying to stop his childish outburst. The apartment was not particularly lavish and it was only accented by her frustration of how her supposed boyfriend was keeping his apartment; open containers of sugar on the <span class=""bb-i"">floor</span>, a broken sink that he still hadn’t gotten to, and various other issues that just pointed to the man’s lack of giving a shit entirely.<br/><br/><font color=""#c24641"">“...I’m sorry,”</font> Hank let out an exhausted chuckle.<br/><br/><font color=""#6d7b8d""><span class=""bb-b"">“Augh!

He shook his head, that was the kind of shit that got him in trouble with his sister when they were younger-- one stupid joke led to one swift punch and Hope knew how to throw punches. His girlfriend however was less of the hitting type to tell him he was an idiot and more of the ‘I’m going to leave and not talk to you for a week because I think you laughed at me and thus belittled my entire existence’ type. Honestly after this relationship he found his sister so much more endearing. Definitely preferred the punching.<br/><br/>He took another breath as he turned to his kitchen as he tapped a small watch on his wrist. <font color=""#c24641"">“You can come out now, she’s gone.”</font> He muttered as a small group of ants emerged from their hiding places.<br/><br/>Well, his girlfriend was kind of right about the whole ants thing.

He was a prince in the royal family, destined to rule Tok from the throne of his father, Ter-Ran, and his mother, Reas-Ran. Tok was widely known as a hub of crime and villainy throughout the galaxy; indeed, the royal family profited greatly from pirates and the black market. Zhib-Ran was raised from a young age to appreciate the system set up on Tok by the Ran family. His father, the king, made sure that his son understood that allowing crime (to a degree) was to the benefit of the family; and by extension, the entire planet. Zhib-Ran quickly learned that to cross his parents was to commit suicide. Only those truly loyal to the crown prospered under their tyrannical and hard regime. Anarchy reigned among the poor and destitute. The king and queen had no time for the weak, and cast them aside as lambs to the slaughter. After all, they weren't a threat. The royal family possessed powers beyond any of the citizens' imaginations. They could move entire worlds with their bare hands. They could hear a pen drop on the other side of Tok. They could level entire cities with a mere glance. What were these people but insects to them?<br/><br/>These people might have been insects, but they were angry insects. When Ter-Ran and his wife Reas-Ran came to power, those same insects became angry. The royal family had shaken the bee hive. They'd unleashed a monster they could never predicate, and never understand.<br/><br/>Hyperion was privately tutored by his grand parents until he became an adult. They drilled within the boy the same ideals that their children had: tyranny, greed, power. Zhib-Ran learned how to fight from General Cog-Yuung, from the neighboring city of Laav-Yuung. General Cog, like the rest of the nobility, possessed powers similar to the royal family; yet they were distinctly weaker. The royal family had decided that all newborn nobles would have their solar absorption powers weakened, so that, in turn, the nobles would never be able to singlehandedly overthrow the king. The same greed that corrupted the crown soon corrupted the nobility. Men like General Cog-Yuung looked to the populace and saw that unrest was growing. Such crimes as murder, rape and genocide were a common occurrence in all cities sans the capital. These crimes happened in the very streets; the police did nothing but grow fat on the money given to them by their king and queen. Something had to change.<br/><br/>So one man brought about that change.<br/><br/>His name was Lex-Vani. A bonafide genius, born amid the scum of Tok who was able to drag himself up out of the filth and into the nobility. He became rich. Famous. Trusted. No one expected that on young Zhib's eighteenth birthday that Lex-Vani would kill both Reas-Ran and her husband, Ter. Lex had strapped a powerful bomb filled with a very specific type of radiation to the bottom of the queen and king's bed, and at the peak of night detonated the weapon. He struck the crime bosses in their sleep, while they were at their weakest. Lex had attempted to do the same to their son, however the boy had not been home. Rather, Zhib-Ran had been rescued early that morning by General Cog. Cog wanted to make Zhib his adopted son, and turn Zhib into a weapon.<br/><br/>Hyperion saw through the general's lies. The two fought until the break of dawn the next day, and Zhib was able to use that extra bit of sun light to burn a hole into the general's very brain. With General Cog dead, Hyperion set out to subdue the riots that were occurring all across planet Tok. He travelled across the entire planet, cleansing entire cities worth of rioters with little effort. For nearly a week, Zhib-Ran made war with the rebels. Their numbers were problematic; Zhib was but a single man, and the rioters numbered more than a billion. Hyperion spent his nights next to the sun to avoid assassination attempts, and his days plowing through armies in an attempt to quell the rebellion. The war came to a head when Lex-Vani created a bomb designed to destroy the entire universe; the weapon was meant as a sort of last resort against Hyperion's rampage. A mad attempt by an even madder man to win this war.<br/><br/>Hyperion broke into Lex's facility, and came face to face with the genius who tore apart all of Tok. Lex-Vani bore powered armor, designed for the explicit purpose of killing Zhib-Ran. Lex and Zhib fought; Hyperion's ruthlessness won him the battle. Moments before Hyperion was able to dismantle the universal bomb, Lex, in his last act of defiance, detonated the weapon.<br/><br/>Then the universe exploded.<br/><br/>Moments before the universe eating explosion wiped Hyperion from existence, a portal opened beneath his feet and Earth-712's Superman was dragged into our reality by Kree scientists. Hyperion allowed the Kree to examine him for nearly two years. The entire time, Zhib-Ran was studying Kree culture and technology. He learned everything he needed to know about the galaxy. He learned of Earth, of the Skrulls...And he learned of Knowhere. A paradise for crime. A place like Tok.<br/><br/>So Hyperion escaped the Kree homeworld. He stole a translator and flew out of the atmosphere and into space, easily defeating any Kree military who tried to get in his way. Hyperion made a beeline for Knowhere, determined to rebuild his empire.<br/><br/>For Hyperion was King.<br/><br/>On his way to Knowhere, Hyperion came in contact with earth. He met with SHIELD and established a working relationship with them as he studied earth and its people. Zhib-Ran soon grew fond of the humans and their way of life. Eventually Hyperion promised to work with SHIELD, and eventually the Avengers, hiding his true past and purpose from them until the opportune moment presented itself. But soon, Hyperion would be reminded of why his parents hated the common people. Why they were inferior, while Hyperion was superior.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS:</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name="" Skills and Abilities"" type=""button""> Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Super Strength (Enough to match Earth's powerhouses like Thor and Hulk)<br/><br/>Super Speed (FTL in space, many times faster than any jet while planetside)<br/><br/>Night-Invincibility (Survived the destruction of his universe)<br/><br/>Flight (In space and in the atmosphere)<br/><br/>Flash-Vision (heat/laser vision)<br/><br/>Super Senses (Can see things at the subatomic level, hear things across the planet, and has X-Ray vision)<br/><br/>Solar Absorption (Gains powers from all forms of sunlight) <br/><br/>Leadership (Was once a king of an entire planet)<br/><br/>Martial Arts (Taught by the royal guard how to use his powers in a fist fight)<br/><br/>Durable uniform (High stress clothing keep Hyperion from constantly needing new uniforms)</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Avenger of Earth:</span> Zhib-Ran arrives on earth and begins working with SHIELD to help them make the earth a safer place.

The locals called the structure the ""Daily Bugle."" Apparently it was a facility built for the express purpose of delivering biased journalism to the drooling masses of New York. Mark brought one such piece of propaganda up to where he could look at it: a newspaper, the humans called it. Covered in pictures and writing. Why did this ""Bugle"" continue to use such an outdated form of communication to deliver its message to the people of New York City. Even here, on the primitive planet called earth, they had more efficient means of transferring information from one location to multiple locations. A network of computers devised many years ago that allowed the public access to the 'information superhighway.' Despite the existence of this system, the Daily Bugle and a number of other outlets insisted on having their opinions transported by hand. It baffled Zhib-Ran, who's own world used a sort of 'internet' to spread news. Everyone carried a device that could be wirelessly accessed at any time by those allowed to present information to the entire planet. <br/><br/>That was another thing this planet, and more specifically the western portion of it, lacked: censorship. Why allow men like this J. Jonah Jameson to spew lies about important public figures like the Spider-Man? The Spider-Man is a hero. He serves as an icon to the people of New York City; the denizens look up to him as their savior. Well, they should, anyway. From what Zhib-Ran had seen, not everyone appreciated the wall-crawler's presence in the big apple. That fact can be attributed to the mud slinging of Jameson more than likely.<br/><br/>""Hmph."" Hyperion puffed as he observed the front page. A picture of Spider-Man slinging through New York's skyline. <span class=""bb-i"">Odd,</span> Zhib-Ran thought. <span class=""bb-i"">How did they manage to get a shot from this angle?</span> The photographer must have been standing on the ledge of a massive structure to get a shot from that high up. How could he have known the Spider was swinging by at that exact moment, to take a picture without blur? How very odd. Zhib-Ran began to read the article on the front page. It was an opinion piece written by multiple authors. The article raised an interesting question: Should superheroes be allowed to work within the city without regulation by the government? <span class=""bb-i"">Of course not.</span> Hyperion answered within his own mind.<span class=""bb-i""> You can't trust an ordinary citizen to do the work of the police.</span> But law enforcement on earth was not equipped to deal with the threats that required the attention of superheroes. Hyperion went on to read the rest of the article on page eleven. The Daily Bugle offered a simple solution: SHIELD. They wanted people to look at SHIELD and see how well their system worked, and how it could be applied to law enforcement at large within the United States of America. Vigilantes are brought in, trained, and given badges before they're sent off to work for the city. They would get a paycheck, benefits, the whole package. What's not to love?<br/><br/>The article failed to mention, and Hyperion failed to realize, the shortcomings of such a plan. For Zhib-Ran hadn't the time to mull over the positives and negatives, because Captain America needed his assistance.<br/><br/>""Agent Milton."" A voice suddenly spoke from Zhib's watch.<br/><br/>Hyperion raised the device closer to his face and pressed a button on the side. ""This is Milton. Go ahead."" Zhib-Ran was still getting used to calling himself ""Agent Mark Milton"" instead of Zhib-Ran or Hyperion. Why the humans wished for his identity to remain a mystery, Zhib did not know. But he had chosen to work with SHIELD until the day when he no longer needed them. For Hyperion's plans to come into fruition, he needed SHIELD's full trust. So, for now, Hyperion would do as they told. No questions asked.<br/><br/>""Captain America has activated his distress beacon and requested your assistance. He's currently in the Savage Lands, Antarctica- you should be able to find him without too much trouble.""<br/><br/>""Of course. I'll be right there.""<br/><br/>Hyperion switched the device off and set his newspaper down. He quickly removed his grey suit jacket and carefully folded it up, setting that down as well. Zhib removed a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on before straightening his tie and jumping to his feet. A quick rolling up of his sleeves, and Hyperion was ready for work.<br/><br/>Then he jumped.<br/><br/>Zhib-Ran fell from the roof of the Daily Bugle towards the busy streets below. People looked up and pointed; he could hear screams and calls for help as he rapidly descended towards the asphalt. Time itself seemed to distort as Hyperion activated his powers. Everything slowed down to a crawl. Zhib glanced around with his enhanced vision at the faces of the people below. A moment later, after he had finished enjoying the fresh air, Hyperion began to fly. He suddenly shot forward at speeds approaching light, flying above the New York skyline. He was careful not to get too close to any buildings; his powers allowed him to keep air disruption to a minimum, however there was still the chance that Zhib-Ran could shatter the windows with the amount of air he was kicking behind him at the speed he was going. If Hyperion wasn't able to regulate air flow around him, he imagined flying at light speed would be equivalent to setting off a nuclear bomb in the middle of the city.<br/><br/>Good thing that wasn't a probably for him, isn't it?<br/><br/>It took less than a second for Hyperion to reach the research facility. However, for the extra-dimensional alien, it felt like quite a bit longer. He had to fly up into space and use his telescopic vision combined with his X-ray vision to locate Sam Wilson. Then he had to fly down to Antarctica and traverse the Savage Land without crashing. It felt like an eternity. If Zhib wasn't so experienced with his powers he would have wondered if he reached Sam in time to save him. But he was experienced, so that wasn't an issue either.<br/><br/>Hyperion smashed through the metal and concrete that made up the facilities walls. Debris froze in mid air as Zhib took the time to examine in the situation. The room was filled with what appeared to be dinosaurs in strange glass cases. Cap was looking at one such dinosaur. The good captain appeared to have locked eyes with the creature. Hyperion turned to see a group of AIM agents approaching from another door, all of them armed with state of the art laser weaponry. They wouldn't affect Hyperion; he'd feel them, but it'd probably just tickle. Time sped back up to normal as Hyperion slowed to a stop. The AIM agents entered the room and pointed their weapons at the intruders. However, Cap didn't move. His eyes were stuck on the dinosaur. That was when Hyperion realized that the strange earth creature in the tube must have had the captain under some sort of mind control.<br/><br/>He had to act fast. Hyperion flew forward, right at the pterodactyl. He tackled the beast out of its tube and dragged the flying monster through a nearby wall. And then another wall. And another. Once they were outside, Hyperion let go of Sauron and allowed the monster to get up. The naive ""hero"" believed it was just some misunderstood lizard, and believed it would fly away after that. ""Go on."" Hyperion urged. ""Get outta here.""<br/><br/>Hopefully Cap could deal with the AIM guys on his own, because the dinosaur didn't seem very willing to leave.</div>"

All of the other robots in the series went insane after gaining sentience, while X-51, who has been called ""the Robot with a soul"", survived. X-51 had solar powered batteries built into his exoskeleton and was raised as the human son of his creator, Dr. Abel Stack. At some point the Machine Man built his own ship to travel the stars called the Shockwave Rider. Coming into contact with the Watcher called Uatu and later the Celestials, they deemed his sentience profound and assisted him in traveling back in the direction of Earth after getting lost in the far corners of the galaxy. Coming across the wrecked Knowhere base of the Collector and a pair of his keepsakes, the telepathic and telekinetic Earth dog Cosmo, as well as Troll, together they formed the Guardians of Knowhere. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/>Machine Man's powers include super-human strength, speed, durability and endurance. His body is made of adamantium, and he has a cybernetic brain that gives him a superhuman analytical ability. He has telescopic and microscopic vision and detachable limbs which can be controlled when separated from the body. He also extends his limbs and shapes them into melee weapons at times when in combat. <br/><br/>Along with the built-in abilities for defense, Machine Man has a multitude of devices, including anti-gravity generators that allow him to fly, built into his body. He also has sensors and various radars, a chromatograph, seismometer, audiometer, transceiver and gravity wave detector. His palms contain pulse beams similar to that of Iron Man. X-51 is virtually immortal as long as his programming/consciousness is kept secure. Any damage done to his body can simply be repaired.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Origin of the Guardians: This would be the story of how X-51 came into contact with Cosmo and Troll and formed their team after Knowhere was ravaged by an unknown adversary. <br/><br/>Planet of the Symbiotes: When the Shockwave Rider crashes on an unknown planet, the Guardians are stunned to find an entire planet of symbiotes in all shapes and sizes. Some of the alien creatures were attached to the dinosaur like animals that inhabit the planet, others in the more oozing form, all deadly in their own ways. <br/><br/>the Herald[s]: Before the current herald of Galactus, Morg, can finish studying a planet and destroy it's defenses for his master, the Guardians must do everything in their power to keep the herald from finishing the job and turn Galactus towards a planet without life. But what could prepare them for a second herald called... Terrax?!?<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>""It has been many months since I have seen home. The stars once full of so much wonder now seem so desolate and empty. After coming face to face with one of the last known Watchers in the universe, and ultimately annoying the Celestials in all of their omnipotence, there is not much that interests me. The ship is still running exceptionally well, I would expect nothing less having had help from the Celestials themselves. However, I have noticed a trail of wreckage and debris spanning across a few space sectors now..."" the Machine Man thought at the control seat of the ship.<br/><br/>""Now... <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">this</span></span> is interesting."" X-51 said out loud. <br/><br/>He was one with the ship now. His hand was no longer on a steering wheel, rather in was jacked into the controls with his hand shifting mechanically and taking control more directly. The scanners were actually longer range than what his body was capable of itself, but they showed no signs of life. After a few more moments X-51's ship finally locked onto something. A cargo transport ship, or rather what was left of it. It seemed as if it was being robbed by the hawk like humanoids in the Fraternity of Raptors. Machine Man had a run in one one of their kind trying to attack Uatu the Watcher. X-51 disconnected from the ship's controls and put the Shockwave Rider on auto-pilot. <br/><br/>As X-51 walked to the hatch in the back of his rather large ship considering he was only a single life form, his mechanical body began to shape chrome plated adamantium back thrusters and larger boot jets. Small openings in his back and calves seemed to give birth to all types of machinery as the enhancements were made. Before they were even complete, Machine Man exited his ship headed straight for the dark hawk-like Raptors. Tuning to the frequency their tech uses for communication he warned.<br/><br/>""You have fifteen seconds to back away from what's left of the cargo ship and vacate the sector and then I open fire. This is your only warning."" Machine Man stated.<br/><br/>""We claim thisss vessssel and it's cargo for the Shhhhi'ar Empire!"" said the more chrome colored Raptor.<br/><br/>""Itsss the one who killed Gyre! He mussst paaay..."" said the other of the two in a darker suit with a blue crystal in his chest.<br/><br/>It was all out mechanical humanoid war for about three or four minutes with X-51 coming out on top. After their crystals were broken and their armors damaged, the two Raptors flew away. The weaponry Machine Man had generated slipped back into the openings of his mechanical body after folding and spinning to compact itself. The robot with a soul made his way to the pilots seat of the cargo ship to find it was piloted by another machine. <br/><br/>""You deserved better my mechanical brother."" X-51 thought to himself putting his head down for a moment in respect,  ""Those Raptors are into some nasty business, and claiming allegiance to the Shi'ar? Further study required...""<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

That was until the day of his 13th birthday when he noticed something growing out of his back. One year later he had fully functioning wings, and despite his father's protests he used them to fly. Upon learning of other mutants and the Xavier School, Warren checked the place out for himself and even enrolled. However after about a month or two his anxiety to do something more kicked into gear and he headed out on his own. He had dreams of becoming a costumed adventurer but kept his head down and his wings tucked into his overcoat for the next few years while moving up in his father's company and attending college. After buying up as many shares in the company as possible, Warren took great pride in taking control of the company once he had over half the company in his back pocket. In nearly the exact same way as his father took the company from Warren Worthington I no less. <br/><br/>Still going out for a nightly fly every so often, Warren heard the screams of a young woman one night who was in the process of being mugged by two grungy looking men. When Warren touched down and saved the woman from the attackers, she broke down into tears claiming God had sent one of his agents to save her. Rumors began about an Avenging Angel defending the citizens of NYC. After seeing costumed heroes in the media like Capt. America and Spiderman, Warren made a costume of his own and took to the skies more regularly as... the ARCHANGEL.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Archangel has wings granting him the ability to fly as well as enhanced physical attributes [strength, speed, endurance, durability]. There is also something in his blood that heals his wounds quicker, making him able to heal from serious injury within days and grow new wings within a few months if they're completely removed. He just heals quicker, but he doesn't have the OP'ed Wolverine/Deadpool healing factors. At some point later on I'd like to give him a flaming sword, I just don't know where he'll get it or how strong it will be. <br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Angel of the City - Just an introductory arc where he teams with another more well known hero to take down an enemy.

The wind in my face and flowing through my hair, the taste and smell of moisture in the clouds the higher I fly... it's all just amazing..."" Warren thought as he flew in the clouds in the early morning hours of the day.<br/><br/>The sun was rising over the skyscrapers of New York City. Archangel finally saw his destination point in the Worthington Industries building about six blocks down from Williams Innovations. His muscles contracted, and his wings folded inwards as he touched down on the roof of the building. In a secret stash he found some clothes he'd put away for just this sort of thing. After dressing himself in more casual clothes he tossed on his overcoat. Most people assumed he wore one because he was rich and that's the sort of thing they wear over their expensive suits. Most people assumed Warren was just another one of those douchebags. Of course, he wore it to conceal his wings...<br/><br/>After a long and boring shareholder's meeting, Warren flipped through some monthly reports from their pharmaceutical division. A lab in New Jersey seemed to be spending quite a bit of money on materials and equipment. Nearly everything was signed by a Doctor Johnathan Sweet. <br/><br/>""I'm going to look into this a bit later, right now I need to get out and stretch my wings..."" he thought.<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

From the start he was thick in the privileged life being the son of royalty.  He had the finest clothes, the best hand crafted weapons at his disposal, and the adoration of the town.  As such growing up Thor had the ego that matched his growing strength and skill in combat. However there was always something that kept the young lad's pride from overtaking his common sense.  His younger brother Loki.<br/><br/>While he never understood until years later why Loki wasn't as liked in the kingdom as he was. Thor looked up to his younger brother in a lot of ways.  Loki's use of cunning in combat was seen as a hindrance and making up in physical weakness.  However Thor always admired it, having never been the brightest himself admittedly.  He studied it and tried to incorporate it into his own battle style to success.  It was that, plus all the adventures the two would have that Thor loved about his brother.  He wasn't even phased when he learned the truth, he saw no reason to see Loki as anything less even if his blood wasn't the same as his.<br/><br/>However after the fateful night Loki lost to Eltri and was mocked by all of the people of Asgard. A night Thor was about to come to his brother's aid when his father strictly forbidden him from doing so. Thor saw the slowly evolving change in Loki.  The bitterness and hate growing even as Thor tried to subdue it by having Loki join him on quests and journeys.  Hoping to rekindle the fun they had as kids.<br/>When of a proper age Thor was given the hammer Mjolnir by his father that was made by Eltri. He loved it and it quickly became his favorite and most cherished weapon.  Though soon after Loki went into exile and after being found was put into torture for as long as he lived.  Again Thor, realizing what it all meant, still remained helpless to do anything about it.<br/><br/>It was soon after Ragnarok occurred, the twisted damnation of blood and horrors that Thor found himself in the middle of.  It was in the midst of this battlefield Thor and Loki finally found themselves face to face.  Thor tried in vain to bring some sense of reason to Loki but his brother was gone.  The battle was chaotic and violent, however when Thor finally had the chance to end Loki and bring the madness to a stop his love for his brother made it impossible.  It was from that moment on Thor escaped the collapsing Asgard kingdom through a mix of luck, desperation, and a selfishness that bothers him to this day.  He lost Mjolnir in all the insanity but the situation would have left him dead if he hadn't.<br/><br/>When Thor found himself on Midgard he was left without so much as a rhyme or reason to exist.  Instead with nothing but a name he took to journeying the world the Midgardians made for themselves.  It was a fascinating and humbling experience for the now former prince.  From hiking across the plains of China ,working as a carriage handler in Victorian London, to crazy enough working as a roadie for ABBA.  Thor has seen just about everything the world has to offer.  Finally he settled down in a small cabin out in the wilderness of the area now known as Montana.  He would from time to time journey out to various nearby small towns for whatever essentials he needed but mostly kept to himself.  Staying off the grid of the growing world around him with only a basic idea what was happening around him.<br/><br/>When SHIELD were keeping an eye on Tarene in her destructive quest for Loki's head.  They came across an unusual reading that led them to finding that there was an Asgardian hiding in rural Montana... <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span> Being of both Asgardian and Elder God ancestor.  Thor possesses strength, invulnerability, stamina, and speed.  Though the most notable thing about Thor is his weapon of choice, Mjolnir.  With it Thor can levitate and fly by throwing it and holding onto the handle and control of weather in particular lightning.<br/><br/>Ever since Thor started living his life on Earth, Thor has been able to adapt and learn plenty of new tools.  From iron forging, leather work, caring for horses, cooking, farming, to countless other things.  Thor has a knack for plenty of different tasks.  Though even with seeing it grow around him Thor still hasn't quite figured out modern technology.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span> The first and naturally the easiest is trying to rekindle his relationship with his brother Loki.  Wanting to believe that Loki is a changed man, but naturally having his doubts.<br/><br/>Thor wants to see a re-birthing of Asgard and goes on a journey to do so.<br/><br/>Meeting a wonderful young woman in Jane Thomas, Thor has to decide if he can continue being the mighty warrior, or finally settle down.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span> Midgard's alcoholic brews just never quite satisfied him quite like the Asgardian beverages.  The kind of 1000 year old fermented masterpieces of booze that a mere mortal could only possibly barely handle.  Still the occasional beer did its job to soothe away any woes he had at that moment.  <br/><br/>The cabin he had made for himself all those years ago still sufficed perfectly.  Aside from the rare kids who would come out to it, because of some stupid myth it was haunted by the ghost of a crankily old man.  Thor didn't really have anyone bother him and he was perfectly fine with it.  The house had only just gotten electricity to come to it, but aside from a refrigerator and some lights Thor didn't really have much else.  The one time he really tried to watch TV it just made him annoyed to the point he broke the TV punching it, and the internet... that library still won't let him back.<br/><br/>As Thor finished the last of the bottle and not having much else to do at the moment got up from the old couch to get another beer.  Carelessly tossing the empty bottle into a trash bin with a small 'clang!' emitting from it.  Thor opened up the fridge to find aside from random small dishes he had made for himself recently.  The fridge was practically hollow in its emptiness.<br/><br/>“Damn.”<br/><br/>Thor sighed annoyed as he flipped the door close, throwing a jacket on over his beat up t-shirt and jeans to go get some things in town.<br/><br/>Thor always felt weird doing these sort of things everyone around him seem to never really think about.  How back all those years ago he'd never one think to get something himself, the Asgard kingdom had more than enough people there to get him something at his slightest whim.  As Thor grabbed a case of Samuel Adams, he thought for a moment about that, and its sad but natural course into what had happened to his home.  It seems like a day to day wonder if he should hope Loki is alive or dead.  At least dead he might finally have made peace with the nightmare he caused.<br/><br/>""Ugh Loki, you're making me shop at a grocery store.  You are an evil prick...""  Thor just weakly joked under his breath as he stopped and looked around the store.  Trying to remember where the bologna was.  </div>"

His parents were immigrants from Ireland, who had fled to the United States of America to escape the potato famine there. Steve's parents drilled into their son the characteristics of honor, loyalty, justice and courage. They taught Steve to be brave in the face of any danger. Rogers was raised to see the best in himself and others, always going the extra mile to make a friend or stand up for what he believed in. As Steve grew older, he tried his hand at sports. But he wasn't very athletic at all; he was often described as a twig with arms. He couldn't build any sort of muscle despite all his hard work and he seemed destined to be skinny and weak for the rest of his life. He was regularly the target of bullying, both physical and verbal. Steve fought back when he could but mostly had to ignore the constant picking of other kids. Rogers relied on his friends Arnie Roth and Duvid Fortunov for protection when the gangs and thugs came around looking to mess with Steve. The threesome were known for getting in brawls with other groups of kids, regularly picking fights with the local scum to protect less capable kids.<br/><br/>It quickly became apparent to anyone looking that Steven Rogers possessed a noble heart and a fierce fighting spirit, even if he routinely got his butt beat.<br/><br/>Knowing he had no future in athletics (as he had one desired), Steve Rogers majored in fine arts during college and proved himself to be an excellent artist.<br/><br/>The boy's life took a drastic change, however, when Nazi Germany invaded the neighboring country of Poland. The Axis forces swept like a tide over Western Europe and their atrocities struck a cord within Steve. He spent his days watching the newsreels and yearning to help Europe in their fight against this obvious evil. Eventually Steve grew tired of just watching the battle unfold and decided to sign up for the United States Army, sure that the U.S would join the war eventually. When Steve attempted to join the United States military, he was quickly rejected for being too physically weak and labelled a 4-F. Steve Rogers wanted with all his heart to join the Army and fight for his country; so he tried again. And again. Steve signed up for the military under two dozen different aliases, going so far as to change his hair and eye color and travel across his home state to different recruiting offices each time. Steve was puny and didn't even come close to passing the mandatory physical exam for induction, although he wanted with all his life to serve his country, he was rejected and stamped out.<br/><br/>One of the recruiters for Project: Rebirth working in Brooklyn caught wind of Steve's efforts and intercepted the determined man at one of the recruiting stations. The recruiter was looking for test subjects for the Super Soldier project; men who were willing to die for their country. When met Rogers, the recruiter was impressed by Steve's dedication and fervor. He convinced Steve to work with Project: Rebirth, promising Rogers that he would be able to do what he had set out to do: Stop the Nazis. The recruiter brought Steve to meet the staff in charge of Project: Rebirth. The staff included Abraham Erskine, Peggy Carter, General Patton, Howard Stark, and various others. The plan was to create the very first Super Soldier. They wanted a man who could single handedly turn the tide of the war in the favor of the Allies, whom they were (apparently) planning to help fight. This fact surprised the soon-to-be captain, since Pearl Harbor had yet to occur and Roosevelt seemed hellbent on staying out of World War II. Regardless, Steve went along with the program. <br/><br/>It took months of work but eventually Steven Rogers was changed into Captain America, a 6'2 240 pound spitting image of patriotism. His handlers went to work sculpting Steve into the perfect soldier. He was taught how to fight, how to lead and how to speak. He was gifted a shield made out of vibranium and adamantium that was completely indestructible and taught how to use it as a weapon.<br/><br/>Captain America, alongside the Howling Commandos, fought in Europe as a covert unit against the forces of the Third Reich. They targeted HYDRA, the terrorist organization created by Nazi spymaster Baron Von Strucker and led by the infamous Red Skull. The Howling Commandos sabotaged HYDRA facilities at every turn, with the captain and Red Skull facing off in hand to hand many times and stalemating each other in every fight. It was soon revealed that the Red Skull had been created using a combination of stolen Super Solider Serum plans as well as technology from the alien race called the Chitauri. Herr Kleiser, an SS officer, was actually a member of the Chitauri race and had provided Red Skull with the necessary enhancements to fight Captain America one-on-one. During one of Steve Roger's many battles against HYDRA and the Chitauri, Henrich Zemo is killed by one of the Howling Commandos. Bucky Barnes is introduced to Steve via General Patton and the two quickly hit it off. Bucky joins the Howling Commandos as they try to put a stop to the German war machine before it tramples over the final bastions of European resistance. Arnim Zola, a Nazi scientist working with the Chitauri to produce an army of bio-mechanical soldiers, is defeated by Bucky and Captain America and imprisoned in the United States until modern times.<br/><br/>Near the end of the war, the Nazis were beginning to grow desperate. Johann Schmidt kidnapped Albert Einstein and various other members of Project Manhattan and forced them to build a nuclear weapon for HYDRA. Nick Fury caught wind of the plan and sent the Howling Commandos along with a battalion of tanks led by General Patton to overtake the castle from which the missile was to be launched. Captain America and Bucky battled Herr Kleiser and the Red Skull to a standstill. It seemed the Captain and his sidekick were going to win the day; that is, until Herr Kleiser fired off the nuclear weapon, aimed directly at Washington, D.C. Captain America, without a second thought, leaped onto the back of the missile and rode it into the sky. Red Skull quickly followed, the two super soldiers battling precariously over the Atlantic Ocean on top of a nuclear explosive that could level an entire city. Steve disabled the nuke, but in the scramble to do so slipped off the side of the nuke and fell into the freezing waters below. He watched as Red Skull was engulfed by the flames of the bomb.<br/><br/>As he sunk to the bottom of the ocean, all Cap could think about is how much he'd miss Peggy. He'd always meant to ask her out; but with the war and all, he'd never had the time. At least Red Skull would die with him, right?</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS/ABILITIES:</span> <br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Super Soldier Serum"" type=""button"">Super Soldier Serum [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The Super Soldier Serum is a chemical compound of unknown makeup created by Doctor Abraham Erskine and Doctor Koch. The serum, on its own, develops the human body to the pinnacle of its potential; effectively creating the peak of humankind. But the original Super Soldier creation process did not only involve injection of the super solider serum but also bombardment by the mysterious radiation known only as Vita Rays. The mixture of Vita radiation and the serum compound enhances the subject to superhuman levels. The immune system, muscle growth, bone density and nervous system are all raised to seemingly impossible levels of efficiency. The third step of the process accelerates the serum's multiplication at the cellular level, stabilizing the compound and reducing the likelihood of adverse side effects. The first step of the SSP is highly classified and documentation is incomplete but available for SHIELD's use. The second step, involving the Vita Rays, was never well-documented in the first place; the majority of papers written on the existence of Vita Rays were destroyed when Heinz Kruger assassinated Abraham Erskine. The third step of Project: Rebirth is entirely unknown; researchers speculate that only Koch and Erskine knew of the third step. The full Super Soldier Process has only been used on a handful of individuals, with even fewer surviving into modern times. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Strength:</span> Project: Rebirth gifted Captain America with much sturdier bones and muscles. During the war, it wasn't uncommon to see Steve pry a tank's cannon from its turret. There are numerous eye witness accounts of Steve Rogers lifting a full-blown Sturmgeschütz III over his head and slamming it into the ground with enough force to smash it to bits. He has the strength to casually throw around motorcycles and small cars, tear apart jeeps with his bare hands, and throw his shield hard enough to slice solid steel. His time in the ice has greatly weakened his underutilized muscles and bones, temporarily dropping his insane strength to Spider-Man levels.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Speed/Reflexes:</span> Steve Rogers possesses top speeds comparable to an automobile. During the Second World War, he often raced against various tanks and jeeps while on base for the amusement of the troops. Veterans were quoted as saying that Captain America ""Once chased down a Cheetah and caught it for dinner"" while on tour in Northern Africa. This same speed translates into how quickly Cap can react. He regularly blocks hails of bullets with his shield, dodges oncoming tank shells and on one occasion allegedly caught a bullet in flight.<br/>Having been frozen at subzero temperatures for decades has slowed down Steve's speed and reflexes significantly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Endurance/Disease Immunity/Healing Factor:</span> Captain America's body does not produce as many fatigue toxins as a normal human, and thus is able to operate at peak efficiency for hours on end. Steve is impervious to gas attacks and poisons of any kind. His body is naturally resistant to all sorts of diseases, including anthrax, HIV, small pox and every known nerve toxin on earth. His doctors described him as ""unbreakable."" In the same vain, his body's natural healing is boosted to such levels that bullet wounds heal themselves in hours. Knife wounds disappear in minutes. His immune system can overcome any infection. There isn't a bacteria on earth that his body can't obliterate, given a little bit of time.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Hyper Advanced Brain:</span> One of Steve's most important enhancements was made to his brain. His memory is photographic. Drastically increased cognitive processing allows Steve to learn anything by merely observing and trying it for himself. His long-term memory is expanded, giving Cap room for more knowledge than any normal human. His brain's enhanced nature means that he can process information extremely fast, granting Steve the uncanny power to 'see faster.' In essence, Captain America sees everything in slow motion, even objects moving faster than the speed of sound. This ability is what gives Steve his tactical genius and lets him calculate his shield's ricochets in less than a second.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Learned Abilities"" type=""button"">Learned Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Advanced Martial Artist:</span> Captain America is an expert martial artist. He has developed his own fighting style that utilizes moves from Judo, American boxing, Taekwondo, Akido, Karate, Ju-jitsu, pressure points and various other disciplines. The focal point of this style is Steve's shield but he is able to adapt it just fine to unarmed combat. His advanced cognitive processing and memory are to thank for his quick learning and development in battle.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Superior Tactician and Strategist:</span> A natural leader even before the Super Soldier procedure, Steve is a capable tactician. He has spent years learning the strategies of past generals and leaders. But all the studying in the world doesn't matter when the bullets start to fly. Most men buckle under the pressure of combat; but Captain America is not most men. He'll admit that he can't think nearly as well in a tent a hundred miles from the front as he can in the trenches with explosions rocking the battlefield around him. He's proven himself time and again a master of squad-based warfare, taking down much larger enemy forces with minimal resources and manpower using only his strategic mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Charismatic Orator:</span> Much like his tactical mind, the Captain was a powerful speaker before he had been enhanced. After becoming the famed Captain America, Steve was taught by the best of the best how to communicate to the masses. He was shown the intricacies of diplomacy and inspiration. He knows how to to sway the opinions of almost anyone with little more than words.</div></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#0054a6"">Sample Story Arcs:</font></span><br/><br/>Second Coming of the Red Skull: The Red Skull returns! He's back, and deadlier than ever. But how did he return? What does he want? The stakes are almost as high as they were in the final days of World War II as the Red Skull attempts to resurrect the Fourth Reich and bring America to its knees.<br/><br/>The Chitauri Invasion: Herr Kleiser and the Chitauri appear once more, now with an army of shape shifting aliens bent on revenge against Captain America and the entirety of earth. Connections between the Skrulls and the Chitauri become prevalent as Cap investigates the aliens' return, and tries to find a way to defeat them.<br/><br/>Man Out of Time: This is more of an ongoing story than a single arc. Steve Rogers finds himself in a world unlike the one he had left. He suffers from culture shock as he attempts to meld into modern society and reconnect with past friends and allies.<br/><br/>Death of Captain America: I want to do this one eventually. I'll keep it on the hush hush for now.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span></font> Do I have tooooo? I'll do one eventually.

He learned public education, and he wasn't very good in school. He had a rebellious personality which got him into trouble a lot. He wanted to become as smart as them, he just didn't ever seem to be as good as them. Sometimes, he felt like the odd-one out.<br/><br/>Then his mother died, Johnny's father was devastated and went into a deep depression. His sister had to become a motherly figure. Sue had to watch him over him, to make sure he didn't get in trouble. He ignored her a lot, and did dangerous, dare-devilish things. He was an hot-head. Soon, the two headed to the NY Comic-Con. Sue was Hawkgirl and Johnny was Hawkman, he saw it fit. They met Reed Richards, an awkward nerdy guy, and Ben Grimm, a big guy with a Boston accent. Mostly Sue and Reed talked. Johnny was happy that she made a friend.<br/><br/>     Then they came back. Talking about her new friends she made, Reed Richards and Ben Grimm. She told her father about how smart Reed was, and how he's very prestigious. This gave their father an idea, to make The Future Foundation. Johnny joined his sister and the other two at the Baxter Building. He saw this as a way for him to learn a lot. Plus it seemed pretty cool, they headed to a desert in Nevada to test the N-Zone Teleportation Project. Johnny didn't realize how much that it would change all four of their lives forever.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Johnny has the ability to burst into flames at will by the words ""Flame On"" and ""Flame Off"". He can fly as well, from being as light as oxygen.

Finding out about him and having to fight its now mindless form leaves Reed depressed and blaming himself, on top of what happened to himself and the other three.<br/><br/>Reed along with the rest of the newly announced Fantastic Four begin to put the pieces together about where his father went and what happened to him, which leads them to a certain castle in Latervia.<br/><br/>(This one with Kid Lantern's permission of course) After their constant struggles and disappointments against 3D Man, The skrulls decide to use the Fantastic Four as the base for a new Super Skrull prototype.  However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Sample Text: <br/>Johnny looked around. He just woke up in a hospital bed, he wondered what happened. ""Uuugh..."" He groaned, his head hurt. He looked around, and slowly sat up. Where was the others? What happened after the N-Zone Teleporter thing went out of control? Was his sister okay? A nurse walked into the room, her eyes widened as she saw Johnny trying to sit up. She said something in French. ""What? What does that even mean?"" He asked. She said something in French again, then she realized he couldn't understand her.<br/><br/>        She walked out of the room, and called for a doctor. He rubbed his head, how long has he been out? He looked around the room, there were things that he couldn't read. Was he even in America right now? A doctor walked in, he held a chart and looked at Johnny. ""Hello, I am Dr. Leon. I'm glad you've woken up. You vere out vor almost a day."" His voice was heavily accented, was this guy French? ""Where am I?"" The French doctor smiled, ""Vhy you're at Beliveau Hospital.""

The nurse ran in to help the doctor, when she saw Johnny in flames, she shrieked. ""AAAHHH!!!"" Johnny yelled, ""SOMEONE HELP ME!!"" The sprinklers finally turned on, but it didn't do much! The nurse ran out of the room. What was happening!? Johnny fell out of the bed, he then touched the heart monitor, only to make it burst into flames and spark.

Louis was a quiet kid, but his sister had dreams of super-stardom. With their mutant powers being stronger in each other's company, the two were asked to join the superteam Alpha Flight at the age of twenty. Jeanne Marie took them up on the offer and took the name Aurora, however Louis continued his skiing and was somewhat of a local celebrity. <br/><br/>Louis used his knowledge of skiing and wrote a few books for aspiring skiers over the next two years as well as a fictional novel about a group of friends at a ski lodge with a hot tub time machine. His sister became a superhero in her own right, and came out about being a lesbian. Some time after however, Jeanne Marie was killed in the line of duty by a Wendigo which sent Louis into hero-mode. Louis assisted Alpha Flight in taking the monster down but chose not to stay in Canada long.

Most of his stuff was still in the boxes he'd packed it in with his father, Jean Paul. He lived by the ocean on Emmons Avenue now, and on the other side of the harbor was a community college. Lucky for him, he didn't need to continue his education. The adventures of the friends he'd created for his first fictional novel were turned into a live action film a couple years back, and he was still living on the money he'd earned selling the film rights. Louis was also going to get paid for the second film featuring the same characters he had created and their hot tub time machine. <br/><br/>The hero walked out onto his terrace and looked out at the ocean. The seagulls were flying closely behind the fishing boats, eating away at the leftover fish parts thrown back into the water. The smell of the salt water and the extra bit of dew and humidity in the morning was something of an acquired taste. He loved it though, and when the sun came up over the top of the blocky U shaped apartment complex he enjoyed watching all of the women who came out to tan. Mostly Russians, but there were a few more diamonds in the rough. One such diamond was a southern belle from Virginia by the name of Tabitha, with long blonde hair and an accent as beautiful as her looks. When she noticed the dark haired young man glancing down every so often as to not be too conspicuous she yelled up at him on his third floor terrace...<br/><br/>""I SEE YOU UP THERE, LOUIS!"" she yelled with a smile and a laugh, ""YOU EVER GET UNPACKED?""<br/><br/>""I'M ACTUALLY STILL WORKING ON IT!"" he yelled back, generally not drawing this much attention to himself.<br/><br/>This of course didn't matter when he was in as good a shape as he was, and shirtless no less.Even the young pretty Russian girls glanced up a time or two despite their body building boyfriends and mob affiliated family members being around. This didn't matter of course when they wore such big sunglasses. Enjoying the warmth while they still could, by late September the weather would turn cold and then they would get to wear their expensive coats and boots. <br/><br/>It was just under twenty-eight hundred miles back to Twin Peaks, Washington, so any time Louis got home sick it would only take around twenty to thirty minutes to fly there going as fast as Mach 10. It all just depended on which way the wind was blowing and if there was any more severe weather to avoid. Feeling it was as good a time as any to get some fresh air, Louis put on his Northstar suit and bolted out of his terrace door so that nobody would realize yet just who he was. The mutant hero was rich, but nobody was able to put two and two together when he vibrated his molecules enough to mess up any picture or recording devices that caught him in a clearer view. It was a trick he'd learned from some super fast hero in a comic book as a teenager.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Additional Notes:</span> I switched Northstar's secret ID with his adopted father's [just sounded too French for me], made his hometown in the USA and based it on Twin Peaks [the tv series], and I also made him straight and his sister a lesbian as well as his inspiration for becoming a hero. The girl in the sample post is also somebody normally affiliated with the New Mutants and X-Force, and will most likely be his love interest if nobody else has claimed her [it's Boom Boom].<br/><br/>______________________<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Sending Fred to the camp turned out to be a good decision, as he quickly grew to love the sport, joining his local team after discovering he had the arm to be a great pitcher. He soon began to dream of  pitching for a major league team one day. Amazingly this dream seemed to come true, with Fred becoming a professional baseball player in the minor leagues after graduating high school, before entering the major leagues a few years later.<br/><br/>However it was during this time that Fred seemed to fall into a bad crowd, and after a while built up a considerable dept with a local loan-shark. In an effort to payback his debts, Fred began taking bribes to loose games so that his loan-shark could bet on him. This plan backfired tremendously however, with Fred getting caught out and suspended from playing baseball any more. His life fell apart after that, with Fred simply staying home all day and refusing to leave the house.<br/><br/>That was when he was approached by  Secret Empire, an international criminal organization who felt that Fred had the potential to be of great use for them due to his world-class pitching skills. Due to his Australian heritage, they aptly named him Boomerang, equipping him with a costume, as well as a collection of razor sharp boomerangs. After robbing a small bank in Brooklyn for the group, Fred wasn't happy with his cut, considering he had done the <span class=""bb-i"">heavy lifting</span>. Due to this, Fred gave an anonymous tip to the police on the group's location and had them arrested.<br/><br/>Keeping the suit, Boomerang soon branched out on his own, performing a variety of minor robberies. He was soon confronted by the <span class=""bb-i"">amazing</span> Spider-Man, and after a short scuffle, found himself behind bars. During his time in prison, he began to plot his revenge against the hero, forming a hatred for the guy. He soon discovered that his cellmate, Herman Schultz, had also been apprehended by Spider-Man, with the two bonding slightly over this. Herman soon suggested that they form some kind of team, in order to more easily complete heists, as well as have more firepower once the heroes turned up. <br/><br/>Returning to the streets of New York, Boomerang and Shocker brought this idea to life, inviting both Hydro-Man and Speed Demon to join them.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do?

He was named 'Victor' to honour his first triumph against the very heavens who wanted him gone.<br/><br/>Victor was raised in the travelling group for a few years, he had few friends except for a girl called Valeria; Victor was also taught basic arcane tricks by his mother and, being a child, he thought nothing of this. It was a happy existence until local soldiers came for his parents. His mother was charged with witchcraft and was executed on the spot, when Victor's father intervened he was shot also. Victor was soon expelled from the travelling gypsies who called him a bad omen once more.<br/><br/>Victor left everyone knew and Latveria itself, heading to America. <br/><br/>Victor spent many years in the states, his mind proved well-suited to learning the sciences and he greedily absorbed all the knowledge he could. The US Military located Victor and co-opted him to work for them developing new weapons for their forces. Unfortunately Victor's skill did not save him from a tragic lab accident. His face was grievously scarred by the incident and Victor left America soon after. He blamed the American need for progress for pushing him too hard and causing his injury and so ensured that all his creations were destroyed before he left.<br/><br/>Doom's life then consisted of travelling, he explored many areas of the world where no one had documented and learned many teachings from the wise figures he found; not limiting his education to (as he saw it) Western science, Victor broadened his understanding of the Arcane and Magyks of the world. It was here he began to refer to himself as 'Doctor' and clad himself in hooded garments to hide his deformity. During this period Doom visited such remote regions as Wakanda, the Savage Land, and even travelled to Hell.  <br/><br/>Seemingly accidentally Doom ended up in Latveria and, seemingly without reason, he launched a coup and took over the kingdom in quick succession. Within weeks he reorganised the country into a thriving and productive nation. He maintained a cordial if distant relationship with the United States, preserving Latveria's independence. For its part, the US publicly decries the dictatorship of Von Doom whilst privately maintaining his diplomatic immunity and purchasing his weapons which have ended up in the US military and the black market alike.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><br/>Dr Doom is a highly proficient practitioner of magic making him capable of great feats of sorcery with an strength that is difficult to quantify. He is capable of unleashing his magic in forceful blasts but usually chooses to concentrate his magic on great feats of power such as telekinesis and teleporting.<br/><br/>Doom is categorically a genius, easily of the same calibre of Reed Richards, Tony Stark and others. He has turned his great intellect to revolutionising his homeland of Latveria, which is now a shining beacon of progress (at least on a technological front). In addition, he has created many technological creations such as his robotic copies, the Doombots and more advanced weaponry than has been seen anywhere other than Stark Technologies. <br/><br/>Doom's armour is well known and the monarch is never seen without it, capable of withstanding a beating from multiple super-powered beings and the harshest of conditions, the armour functions as protection, a survival suit and an arsenal of deadly weaponry all on its own and its casing has been protected with the most powerful magical wards that Doom can place. His armour is capable of unleashing deadly bolts or rays of electricity and has a powerful inbuilt forcefield. Doom often carries multiple handheld weapons and gadgets on his person for all sorts of scenarios.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Arms Race:</span></span> Doom offers asylum in Latveria to all superpowered criminals, will he be able to maintain his rule when his new subjects stick to their nefarious ways?  <br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">In Doom we Trust:</span></span> An underground resistance is spreading fear and anti-Doom propaganda in Latveria, the cult of personality Doom has cultivated is cracking and revolution is in the air! Who is behind this outrage? Can Doom defend his throne? <br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Doom's Day:</span> </span>As a prominent world leader Doom often graces other nations with his presence. On a trip to celebrate the opening of the first Latverian embassy in America Doom is ambushed. No way out, no backup, can Doom survive the siege?<br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Can a Doombot Die?</span></span> A rogue Doombot is on the loose! Believing itself to be alive and containing the memories and personality of its creator, it has the potential to be an invaluable tool against the original Doom. Who will discover it? Can you trust a robot? Can a doombot <span class=""bb-i"">truly</span> die?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Castle Doom, Latveria</span><br/>The shadows shook when Doctor Doom returned. As though anyone hiding within had taken a breath to steady their nerves at the sight. But no one was hiding in the shadows, no one would dare, Doctor Doom was back and no one could hide.<br/><br/>Doom knew the castle as intimately as he knew each and every inch of his armour, they were both made to his exacting specifications. Unforgiving and cold. <br/><br/>Doom had barely walked through the great doors of Castle Doom's entrance when the servants arrived. They busied themselves with the task of taking their master's cape, checking his armour for any imperfections and providing updates on anything, anything at all that had occurred in Latveria while he had been away. Doom barely noticed them anymore, they were performing their duty and doing so well, that was all that was needed. Not waiting for them to keep pace or remove themselves from his path Doom strode through the small mass of menials and made his way purposefully to his throne room.<br/><br/>The throne of Latveria was a marvel of technology, like all Doom's creations, it allowed a single person to activate and use all the means Doom had installed to run Latveria. From that throne one could quite literally control the entire country with the touch of a button. Like a great deal of the technology in Latveria the throne was imprinted to Doom's DNA and quite fatal to any who attempted to gain access without Doom's express permission. <br/><br/>Which is why Doom was beyond stunned to see another figure sitting atop it.<br/><br/>The figure was facing away from the room's entrance towards a giant screen that illuminated the room. The screen showed a very detailed map of New York, the very place that Doom had returned from; as with all Doom's surveillance the map showed key points of interest labelling the city along with key and vulnerable features marked in notable hues. The indication was clear, whoever was trespassing in Doom's throne was clearly intending to use the resources he had accrued in a pointless attack on the American city.<br/><br/>The figure gestured and the large throne swivelled to face Doom. The figure on the throne wore Doom's signature armour, green garments and even his iconic mask accompanied by a green hood. In short, Doom was facing one of his own Doombots. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/3363a9ff4036d8232fc5cdc852bdbd34/tumblr_o3316m3L0V1svfe0so1_400.png""/></div><br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'What is this?'</span></font> Doom's voice was cold and held the metallic tint of a voice obscured by a mask.<br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Excellent, you have returned. Update me on the progress of our work in New York.'</span></font> The sitting copy's voice was richer and resonated with more force than Doom's own, a clear sign of a duplicate.<br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'Rise, you have forgotten your place.'</span></font><br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'I-'</span></font> The copy appeared momentarily confused. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'You dare question me?'</span></font><br/><br/>This was always happening, Doom mused under his mask, Doombots allowing their programming to make them forget that they were Doombots in the first place. Clearly a problem he would need to address. <br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'I order you now, speak! Detail the progress!'</span></font> <br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'Enough of this charade.'</span></font> Doom raised his arm, preparing to unleash an electronic pulse that would render the Doombot incapacitated. The Doombot did not move, it would be unable to anyway, Doom had installed many safeguards in his creations including programming that rendered them unable to attack their creator.<br/><br/>Doom activated the electronic pulse and...nothing happened. He tried again and still nothing. Now he was genuinely mystified; perhaps his armour had been hacked somehow or some virus that interfered with his weaponry.<br/><br/>Indeed, Doom was so confused that he didn't notice the copy rise from the throne and raise his arm in exactly the same fashion that Doom himself had done moments before. <br/>What Doom did notice was the shock of electricity that ran through every nerve in his body, his armour shut down immediately and he felt himself fall to the floor, numbness setting in. His senses dulled and he found it difficult to see through his mask. <br/><br/>But he heard the laughter.<br/><br/>The copy stood before him. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'You, like many before you,'</span></font> it spoke drily, <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'are just another failure born of Doom's brilliance.'</span></font> <br/><br/>With that, the standing Doom, for that was who he was, reached down and wrenched the head of the Doombot, for that was what it was, from it's shoulders. He held it aloft, almost fondly, before turning and striding back to his throne. With a simple movement he deposited the Doombot's head onto an arm of the throne. <br/><br/>Immediately information of the Doombot's progress filled the screen, days of work and many activities were compartmentalised and given order in nanoseconds before appearing on the large screen. Doom analysed the information in silence before rising once again from his throne and beckoning to Boris. The old man stood to one side of the room, out of distance of any potential danger that the Doombot could have caused, at Doom's gesture he approached the throne.<br/><br/>'My Lord?'<br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'The time has come Boris, prepare my private jet.'</span></font> Victor Von Doom surveyed his map one last time and knew that the pieces had all fallen into place. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Today we fly for New York!'</span></font> <br/><br/>Boris nodded hurriedly and turned to leave. <br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'And Boris,'</span></font> the old man stopped, Doom gestured to the ruined Doombot on the floor, <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Have that cleaned up.'</span></font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/avengersalliancetactics/images/a/ae/Drdoom.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140524153454""/></div></div>"

However, tragedy would soon arrive at the doorsteps of the Hardy residence when Felicia’s father, Walter Hardy, had to flee for the safety of his family. This of course was due to the fact that in his past Walter Hardy had been known as a grifter, thief, and con artist who was known internationally as “The Black Cat”. Wanted for his crimes over his storied career of heists and cons, Walter’s crowning achievement was the theft of an experimental super soldier process— a job he never finished due to a moral turnaround at last minute thus hiding away the contents of the process in one of his many hideaways. Unfortunately for Walter, The Kingpin’s criminal syndicate were on the trail of one of his many identities and fearing for his family’s life he disappeared as he began to lead his pursuers on a wild goose chase for over a decade.<br/><br/>However, as noble as this may have been it was not without consequences. Felicia was distraught throughout her youth which led her to act out in angst, sadness, and anger. Despite the foundation of her childhood friends such as Mary Jane Watson, Felicia’s knack for getting into trouble outweighed her friend’s positive influence. Felicia coped with picking locks, using her wit to charm others, and getting into rough fights throughout junior high with other girls. Her mother Lydia became distant as she threatened her daughter with the consequences of juvenile activities and the fact that Felicia was turning into a misguided version of Walter— a fact that only made her mother impose more rules and threats by the time she made it into high school. Mary Jane tried to keep in touch as the two friends ended up at different high schools but it seemed Felicia was on a downward spiral. <br/><br/>However, one night over the summer after her freshmen year Felicia found herself ensnared. The Kingpin’s associates had finally made the connection with The Black Cat and Lydia Hardy. In order to flush out Walter they extorted Felicia’s mother and kidnapped Felicia. The truth behind her father’s disappearance was revealed and Felicia found her whole world destroyed. As her father came out of hiding to save his daughter with super soldier serum in hand something wicked happened. In order to ensure Walter’s loyalty and that he wasn’t giving them a dummy serum they did the one thing they could that made sure of the authenticity— they tested it on Felicia. Felicia’s next moments were pain, agony, and mutation. Felicia refused to die from the agonizing process.<br/><br/>Following the incident Felicia found herself intimidating in being trained to work for these criminals by the threat of them killing her father if she sought help, attempted action against them, or acted unfavorably. Felicia Hardy would become the second Black Cat and would serve them as their “acquisition specialist”. <br/><br/>Returning home to her mother, things evened out. However, things grew tenser at home as her mother starts to date widowed police detective, Harrison Thompson. She finds a friendship with his daughter, Jesse – and a rivalry with his son, Flash.

Whilst Fisk's empire is not as rugged as it once was, his name still buys respect in the criminal underworld, and many gangs would be happy to associate themselves with him. Fisk's illegal misgivings are masked by his legitimate investments in business ventures through Fisk enterprises.

But as time passed so did his affection and warmth, with each passing year one another becoming more and more displeased by their entrapment in a marriage in which neither of them felt endearment any longer. Bill was fast becoming a dire alcoholic, and doctors discovered Marlena was slowly becoming schizophrenic, showing primitive stages of the disorder. The only thing that kept them together, the last threads binding them, was their child, Wilson. As Bill Fisk's alcoholism grew, his abuse on his family grew with it; both verbally and physically. Rows plagued the house, and Wilson's father's unpredictable rage and volatility ruled his life. His mother grew more and more schizophrenic as Wilson entered his early and premature teenage years. His father refused her care -- <span class=""bb-i"">""Do you know how much money that slick shit cost?""</span> -- and her condition grew worse.<br/><br/>It was muggy and sultry August evening when Wilson was 15, when his father came home. He had spent the last of his cash on liquors and gambling it all away at Italian owned casinos. In a spurt of ill-tempered fury, his father began battering his mother with unkempt anger. Fisk attempted to block out the sounds, cowering in his room. However, it was in vain; the screams of his schizophrenic mother, who could no longer make sense of the world around herself, slithered their way into Wilson's head. It was this time, the pre-natal X-Gene, oft said to manifest itself to the beholder of the gene in situations of high stress, emerged within Wilson's body. His muscles swelled, his bones expanded, and his height sprung upward. The gene had mutated him into a giant of a man, seven feet of pure and unadulterated brawn. With anger in his heart for the years spent under the iron fist of his abusive father, he beat him to death with his bare hands, half in act of protecting his defenseless mother and half in act of pent up rage against years of oppression and angst. His mother, no longer recognizing her hulk of a son, cowered in fear from him, any sight of him conjuring up visions of the bloodbath of that fateful August eve. Wilson fled out of state, partly in escape from the law, but also to escape the deep remorse and sorrow he linked with his family home.<br/><br/>Perhaps by chance, after a long series of short stints in other cities, Wilson Fisk found himself in the Bronx at the age of eighteen. He may have been just old enough to grow bare whiskers on his chin, but his freakish size and strength offered the luxury of being able to mask his age. Fisk always believed as a kid that strength and power was the key to affording others' respect. Never had the statement rang as true as it did in the underbelly of the Bronx. Wilson used his gifts of considerable size and strength as a weapon, but also as a universal tool to unite those under him. He began a small gang, after all, all criminal masterminds have humble beginnings. He slowly grew his group, whether it be through large recruitment campaigns or whether it be through the assimilation of other gangs, whose facets would be absorbed into Fisk's gang. Slowly but surely, Fisk was building a criminal empire. Fisk's rise to the king of the criminal underworld was slow and steady; it's like they say, the road to top of the mountain is steep and prolonged, but the way down is a sharp, fast drop. <br/><br/>Fisk was atop his game, entrenched in his prime if you will, when he met his wife Vanessa. She was a foreign woman, and her perfume gave off a slight hint of oak. She had a mysterious aura to her, one that ultimately became Fisk's weak spot, as he met the love of his life. He met her at an art gallery at which she worked, courting her through his gentility and chivalry. There was a time when Wilson Fisk believed he needed no one else to be content; that he was happy alone. His perception changed as his love for his wife Vanessa grew, and he began to know the true depths of the emotions he was capable of. Emotions which he had suppressed since his childhood, which he had locked away, in an attempt to make himself not feel for anyone anymore. It should be no surprise that when his wife grew sick with something the doctors could not diagnose, Fisk's heart was decimated. He left his crime empire in the hands of one of his associates, and devoted his time to his wife. He threw large amounts of assets and sums of money at doctors, in order to figure out what was causing her illness. A doctor named Dr. Zhoria diagnosed and cured his wife almost miraculously, and in return Fisk promised that if Zhoria ever needed anything Fisk would be at his beckon call.<br/><br/>Rival gangs saw this as a moment of weakness. They saw a crown on pedestal, sitting there, beckoning to be taken. Like tide on a beach, Fisk's empire was receding in his absence. But the Kingpin of Crime was back, and ready to take back what was rightfully his.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">POWERS / ABILITIES</span></span><br/>The X-Gene in Wilson has afforded him tremendous size and strength. He has become 450 lbs of pure muscle. His stature gives off the visual of blubber; however, his body weight is not as it seems. He can lift things from cars, trucks, and buses to things as large as boulders. He is able to hurl such objects, although not without his fair share of strain. Things such as battleships or other large aircrafts are out of Fisk's weight range, and he is incapable of lifting them. Coupled with his enhanced strength, is his enhanced durability and endurance levels. His ability to resist external blows and attacks his heightened, his thick skin and muscle acting as a pseudo-armor of sorts. This mutation affords him some agility, not superhuman agility, but more agility than you would expect from 7 foot 400 pounder. X-Gene aside, Fisk has many skills, attributes and tools which he can put to work. He is a skilled martial artist, trained in the forms of Sumo. Fisk is multilingual as well. He knows English, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, and Mandarin. Fisk often carries a diamond encrusted walking stick which contains a concealed laser beam piece that fires a quick pulse of 300 watts, which, in case you were wondering, is about enough energy to vaporize a handgun into ashes. Fisk's diamond stickpin also contains a small, highly compressed container of sleeping gas which is effective when fired directly into an opponent's face at close range. <br/><br/>But perhaps his most dangerous weapon is his influence in the criminal underworld. His criminal empire is vast, and with it comes an eclectic collection of hitmen, middlemen, thugs, weapons, and allies. Fisk has associates in every alleyway, paid cops in every division, bribed judges in every court, and contacts in every organization. There's a reason they call him the Kingpin of Crime -- it's because New York is <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> kingdom. Many gangs in New York rally under Fisk's banner, whether it be the fierce Russians or whether it be the noble Japanese, and it's this aspect of the Kingpin that makes him all the more dangerous.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">SAMPLE ARCS</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Return of the King:</span> After spending a year tending to his sick wife, Wilson Fisk is back in the game of crime, and he is not happy to see his kingdom being ransacked by bandits and marauders.

Behind him, a penthouse view unfolded like a pop-up book through large, pristine glass windows. The city churned below, the sounds of engines, car horns, and people fluttering up, barely gasping it's way to audibility so high above the ground. Fisk twirled a pen between his fore finger and thumb as he stared coldly at the man who sat across from him. The man was wearing pinstripe suit and pants, a red tie, and a midnight black fedora. The man's jet black hair was slicked to his left, and a deep gash ran through his cheek.  <br/><br/>""Money is a callous thing, is it not? Mr... Mr. Belcastro was it, yes?"" began Fisk, his voice scratchy like gravel on concrete.<br/><br/>""Uh, yes sir-r-r-r,"" stammered the Italian ""businessman"" with a heavy accent.<br/><br/>""I find that so often it has so much power. It's rather odd when you think about it, that a scrap of green paper holds so much leverage. It has the leverage to turn a man of principles into a man of lies and deceit. Honor and respect smolder, brotherhood and fellowship are cast aside... and it's all just for something as inconsequential as a slip of paper. You wouldn't happen to know what I am talking about, would you?"" said Fisk. <br/><br/>Before the man had a chance to respond, Fisk continued, ""No, I thought not.""<br/><br/>""Honest, Mr. Fisk, we didn't know! We thought you were gone and -- and, we thought maybe -- ""<br/><br/>""You know what they say Mr. Belcastro, life and death are but phases of the same thing, the reverse and obverse of the same coin. Death is as necessary for man's growth as life itself. And boy, do I think you're going to sprout and spring, arms stretched towards the sky like a beanstalk,"" said Fisk, before abruptly standing up, dusting off his trousers. <br/><br/>""Now if you'll excuse me,"" he said, stepping forward from behind his desk.<br/><br/>""Please Mr. Fisk, please, I'll do anything, you gotta believe us! We didn't mean for this to happen, honest -- "" pleaded the Italian mobster.<br/><br/>""James will see you out Mr. Belcastro,"" he said, nodding at the body guard across the room. <br/><br/>Fisk began to walk out of the room, with the man still yelling after him, begging. He stopped and turned to James and saying in a low tone, ""Try not to get any on my carpet this time."" <br/><br/>Fisk barely heard the gunshot on his way out, muttering to himself, ""The song is ended, but the melody lingers on... I've got work to do.""</div>"

In fact Wade was so good at facilities of murder he found himself being transferred into a special unit of skilled soldiers before he hit the age of twenty-three. By the age of thirty, Wade Wilson acted with extreme prejudice. Eventually, Wade Wilson was recommended for leave in spite of his superior military service due to a health concern: Wade Wilson had cancer. Taking this time out to try to investigate ways to subdue it, Wade was eventually approached by researchers of a obscure research project by the name of Department K. Believing their research could remove his illness he joined and began the painful process, but by the end of it Wade’s dormant healing factor became thrown into overdrive; but the catch was there was no bridging the pain of regeneration or purification of his cells. Wade felt every second and every day for several months of his cancer being wiped from his body.<br/><br/>During the recuperation process, Wade found himself in a facility obscurely associated with the project located in rural Canada. This is where Wade Wilson met Doctor Emrys Killebrew, his enforcer Ajax, and several others. This is also where Wade Wilson would lose himself. Killebrew was fascinated with Wade’s “supergene” that allowed him to regenerate all sorts of levels. Believing it to be the process to create a super soldier program that would rival HYDRA and SHIELD’s glory days he began to pick apart Wade Wilson and for quite some time Wade felt this on a daily basis as he succumbed to pain that he could only imagine. Wade attempted to bond with other patients of the program like Worm to keep him from losing himself despite the constant agonizing pain. Wade even began to think that he was communicating with the visage of Death, but death never came. One night, Wade heard how his constitution and endurance were put into a betting pool— the Likelihood of him living. He tried to escape, but even with his training the unbelievable amount of pain placed him at a disadvantage. When Worm died, Wade lost it and attempted to kill Ajax. The punishment for such insolence was Wade’s supposed end as he was deemed to have served his purpose. Ajax and Killebrew dissected Wade, chopped him into tiny pieces, set him on fire, and tossed him in a drain pipe. A normal person… would have died.<br/><br/>Regenerating from the state Wade had made him finally not just go over the brink of madness, but dancing in the fields of madness. Seeing Death again was nice for Wade, but he refused to be ready for it when the taste of vengeance drove his will to live. The regenerated Wade found his memories in pieces; only remembering fragments of the recent years. Eventually finding himself in New York City, Wade began living off the money of drug dealers he non-specifically murdered as he tried to get things on track. Wade began calling himself “Deadpool” after his memories started coming back regarding on what he witnessed in Department K and sought to hunt down Ajax. However, finding Ajax and by extension Killebrew was very <span class=""bb-i"">difficult</span>— even for a man like Wade with a certain set of “skills”. As the weeks went on Wade discovered that Ajax had supposedly resigned from Department K and had decided a career in organized crime was more befitting his type of psychopathy. Fortunately, this made Ajax much <span class=""bb-i"">easier</span> to find considering he had decided to setup shop in Detroit; a place where Wade “infiltrated” as he began killing through Ajax’s thugs and scientists to get to the top of the chain where he could end Ajax’s life but not before he told him where to find Killebrew. The answers he got after several firefights pointed in one direction— Weapon X. <br/><br/>Thus it was time to sign up.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Team X was a group mutants who worked as black ops special forces troops who did whatever Romulus told them to. No one knew exactly who Romulus was, but they knew that he was an ancient mutant with the ability to coarse animals to follow his bidding. The animal within Wolervine had betrayed him, and Logan was under Romulus' control for as long as his feral mind remained intact. For Logan to break free, he would have to acknowledge that he was more man than monster.<br/><br/>Team X consisted of Wolverine, Sabertooth, Deadpool, Copycat, Maverick, John Wraith, Mastodon and later Lady Deathstrike and X-23. The latter two were all created using Wolverine's DNA and possessed various parts of Wolverine's mutation.<br/><br/>Team X operated during various wars and conflicts throughout the years. They battled the Sentinel Order's Asian division in Korea during the Korean War. When the Cold War began, Wolverine and Sabertooth were sent to Russia to locate a device capable of creating Carbonium, a metal similar to Adamantium but easier to synthesize, and less poisonous to humans when handled without the proper equipment. They encountered the agent known as Omega Red before escaping with the device and delivering it to Romulus. The team split up briefly when the Vietnam War began, with Wolverine sent to take down an out of control super soldier named Nuke. Logan succeeded in bringing the man down, and brought him back to Weapon X before being sent back to Vietnam. Wolverine continued to assassinate various politicians, generals and activists who stood in the way of mutant progress. Romulus' forces clashed with the Trask family and their Sentinel Order as history continued to move on, oblivious to the secret war occurring in the shadows.<br/><br/>Now it is 2012, and hiding their war is becoming harder and harder. The newest member of the Trask dynasty, Bolivar Trask, has taken over Trask Industries in America and started to work on the Sentinel program. Mutants are going missing every day, and Romulus believes Trask is somehow involved. So he was assigned Wolverine with the task of hunting down everyone involved in the scheme and bringing them to justice, freeing his mutant brothers and sisters in the process.</blockquote><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#9f1f1f""><span class=""bb-b"">Super Soldier Physiology</span></font> – The physiology gained through experimentation on Wade has transformed Wade into “The Modern Age’s Captain America but way cooler” and as such gives Wade a condition that is ‘peak human’ in terms of endurance, strength, perception, and dexterity.</li><li><font color=""#9f1f1f""><span class=""bb-b"">Healing Factor</span></font> – As a byproduct of his accelerated x-gene, Wade’s degenerative disease was curbed due to the acceleration of a latent x-gene that unbeknownst to Wade existed in his genetic code and as such revealed itself to be as a healing factor that is even more tenacious than Wolverine’s own.

It had been so long since Peter had swung around the skyline of New York City. He almost forgot the adrenaline rush he would get from swinging around on his weblines. Before he became Spider-Man, heights bothered him. However, there was something different about web-swinging. He was in control. He was not relying on any railing, or the engines of a plane, or the cables of a ski lift. This control somehow made the situation feel different where he was able to get over his issues with heights.

Flying beside Peter was Angelica in her yellow and red costume. Angelica did not need anything to assist her flight: her microwave powers generated enough energy to propel her through the air with ease. This was almost the ultimate form of control. Peter had to rely on being able to hit sides of buildings or other objects to continue swinging. But her? As long as her mutant powers kept working, all she had to do was fly.

SNAP!

Suddenly, Peter found himself plummeting towards the ground. Peter wondered what he was thinking when he absent-mindedly took several month old cartridges of his artificial web fluid out for a spin. It was only a matter of time before this would happened. Peter stretched out his hand and compressed the trigger to his web-shooter. However, nothing happened!

“Great!” Peter thought to himself, “Not only am I using web fluid well beyond its expiration date, but the web-shooters I’m using are in desperate need of repair.”

“PETER!” Angelica rushed down toward her friend as he fell toward the streets of New York City that were below them. With an extra burst of speed from her microwave powers, Firestar reached her friend and wrapped her arms around his torso, under his arms. Then, she focused her powers on propelling the two of them away from the ground.

“Thanks, Angel” Peter said with a great sigh of relief after his friend had reached the roof of one of the neighboring buildings.

“That’s what friends are for, isn’t it?” Angelica gave Peter a smile and a wink. “Maybe you should refrain from swinging around until you got a properly mixed batch of web fluid.”

“You think?”

Before Angelica could make a response, both the young heroes heard a sonic boom from below them. Peter, crawling down the side of the building, covered the distance between the top of the roof down to the street floor in a blink of an eye. Swiftly behind him, but not at the same speed at which Peter had went, Angelica followed.

“Oh, Shocker, I see that you’re still wearing your yellow pajamas in public!” Peter mocked the villain as the latter walked calmly out of the bank door, blasted out with his vibro-shock units.

“Looks like destiny has brought us together to break our little tie that we made in our last two encounters.” Shocker answered, seemingly ignoring Spider-Man’s attempt to ridicule him. Then he saw Firestar float down beside Spider-Man. “I see that you needed to bring your girlfriend along to break this tie.”

While he was chuckling at calling Firestar Spider-Man’s ‘girlfriend’, Shocker did not realize that Peter had already dashed forward toward him. Before Shocker could even notice Spider-Man’s attack, let alone lifting up his vibro-shock units to face him, Peter had already slammed the Shocker into the bank wall.

“SHE’S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND,” Peter yelled at the Shocker, “THE WOMAN I LOVED IS DEAD AND NO ONE WILL EVER REPLACE HER!”

Peter released a fury of punches at the Shocker, each blow hitting its mark, no matter what the Shocker tried to do to avoid Peter’s anger.

“SPIDEY, STOP!” Angelica yelled at her friend, “You already knocked him out.”

Peter, finally snapping out of his rage after he heard his friend’s plead, looked at the unconscious body in his hands. Already hearing the screams that were echoing from the sirens of the approaching police cars, Peter set the unconscious Shocker against the bank wall. Then he darted back up the building’s wall, embarrassed at his burst of rage.

“Spidey, wait!” But in spite of Angelica’s pleas, Peter did not head them as he continued up the side of the building. Angelica only had one option: to follow him. And that what she did, zooming up the side of the building to catch up to her friend.</div>"

Peter and Angelica landed on the roof of The Shops at Atlas Park, a mall that was just southwest of Forest Hills. On the roof, the two teenagers attempted to change into their ‘normal’ clothes as quickly as possible. How disorderly and rushed they looked as they changed made them look like two teenagers scrambling to throw on their clothes when one of their parents unexpectedly arrived home in the middle of some hanky-panky (as Peter’s Aunt May would call it). However, this is not the case for Peter and Angelica. Their primary concern was to prevent anyone from seeing them while changing from their ‘super hero’ costumes back into their ‘regular’ clothes.

Once fully dressed in their street clothes, Peter scaled down the side of the building on a webline with Angelica clinging to his shoulders, using his ‘Spider-Sense’ to make sure that no one would see them coming down from the roof. The two strolled through the shopping complex, hoping to calm Peter down from his little ‘mishap’ earlier that evening. After peering through several stores and side shops, the two friends headed over towards the Chili’s restaurant in that complex for dinner. While 20 dollars for a two person meal was not the cheapest option in the world (dollar menu for the win <img src=""/smilies/sun.gif""/>), Peter and Angelica do not have many opportunities for hanging out and having a nice meal was worth the price.

After they had been seated at a booth and had been served a half order of Texas Cheese Fries, Angelica hesitantly brought what had happened earlier back up.

“So, who’s this ‘Shocker’ guy?” Angelica asked Peter, keeping her voice down so that the other costumers could not understand what they were saying.

Peter just rolled his eyes. “Some mercenary with a worse sense of humor than me, and that’s saying something! He only beat me once because I was under the weather and I bruised my arm. My arm wasn’t quite broken, but it still impeded my effectiveness. Then after a couple good night sleeps, I was as healthy as a horse and easily showed him who’s boss. The better question is how in the world did he get out of prison?”

Angelica just shrugged her shoulders at Peter’s last question, not knowing the answer. The two friends continued making some small talk about their coming Junior year in high school (Midtown High for Peter and Xavier Institute of Higher Learning for Angelica), eating their appetizer as they waited for their meals.

On one of the television sets in the bar area of the restaurant, appeared the image of J. Jonah Jameson, the editor-in-chief and publisher of the Daily Bugle. When Peter saw the face of the man who was waging a one-man slander war against Spider-Man, Peter knew what was going to be coming up next.

“I believe that Spider-Man’s recent actions have proven that he is a menace to society! Physically assaulting a man in plain sight! What has this world come to?”

One of the news anchors asked “triple-J” whether the fact that the man, who was assaulted by Spider-Man, was a criminal changed the opinion of the owner of Daily Bugle.

“Of course not!” Jameson retorted, “Today we are lucky that he brutalized a criminal. But what about tomorrow? What will prevent him from attacking some little old lady? He has to be stopped and I plan on spearheading his downfall!”

After Peter and Angelica had finished eating their meals and paying the bill, the two headed out from the restaurant, about ready to head their separate ways.

“Don’t listen to that hot-head.” Angelica told Peter, mentioning the poison that Jameson had just spewed over the national television.

“Don’t worry about me. If I can’t endure some baseless slander, I probably should throw in the towel now.” Peter smiled at his friend. After this, there was a moment of awkward silence, neither knowing what more to say to the other. Finally, Angelica was the one who broke this silence.

“Peter, just remember that your friends are all around you. You don’t need to heal from those recent tragedies alone.” Angelica wrapped her arms around Peter, encompassing him in an embrace. “We all still love you, Pete. Never forget that.”

There was again another pause, another moment of silence. Angelica seemed to look like she wanted to say something else, something more to her heart-hurt friend. However, she obviously decided against it, as with this silence, they parted ways, heading back to their respective homes.</div>"

August 3rd, 2012.
Friday, Midday. 
Doom International HQ.

The dull drumming of Victor's fingers lightly dancing across his desk echoed through the quiet office as he anxiously waited the arrival of his guest. A week before he had apparently agreed to meeting a man he could hardly recall but something about this meeting was making Victor on edge. What exactly they needed to speak about was still a mystery to Victor. Reaching to his side and popping open one of the side drawers he pulled out an envelope with the name 'Dr William White' printed across with 'IMPORTANT' scrawled across the front. Lifting the contents out and spreading it across his immaculate desk he meticulously went through each word and broke them down in his mind. 


<span class=""bb-i"">'Dear Dr. von Doom,

I am Dr Bill White, we worked together on an unmanned drone prototype a couple years back. Through contacts of my own I have come to learn of your interest in history specifically eastern european history, <span class=""bb-i"">eastern european history</span> is something I am very good at you see. If you're ever interested in talking about it contact me. My number is enclosed.

- Bill White'</span>

The words Eastern European hadn't been properly capitalized and was mentioned twice simultaneously. Clearly this was meant to catch Victor's attention, the only thing he could think this had to do with was his funding of the Latverian rebels. Could Dr. White wish to talk about this? Most likely but why was the question that had bugged him. He leaned back in his chair and considered the possibilities as he waited for the man, since he had already cleared his schedule for the entire day over this matter. Victor entertained the idea of Dr. White being some sort of assassin sent by enemies to stop Doom from funding the rebels. Placing his hand under the desk he could feel the cold metal grip of the gun he kept securely hidden directly under the desktop. 

As if on cue Beth's familiar voice broke the silence <span class=""bb-b"">""Sir Dr. Bill White is here for you. Shall I send him in?""</span> Doom remained quiet for a moment before tapping the button and mumbling back <span class=""bb-b"">""Alright send him in.""</span> A few seconds later the sound of heavy foot steps could be heard outside his office followed by three distinct taps on the door. <span class=""bb-b"">""Come in Dr. White.""</span> Victor announced remaining slightly leaned back in his chair. As the door opened and the large figure of Dr. White entered Victor motioned to the plump leather chairs situated across from his desk. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello, I'm glad we could meet today.""</span> Victor said while he watched Dr. White moved across the room Victor had a chance to inspect him, the man was slightly overweight, old and clearly out of shape. His head was balding and a pair of thick rimmed glasses clung to his fat head appearing to actually bend to accommodate it's size. The man sat with a huff and breathed for a few moments before he spoke.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Hello Dr. Doom.""</span> the man spoke looking around the room cautiously.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Please call me Victor""</span> he said as he leaned forward and placed his elbows firmly on the desk <span class=""bb-b"">""Is something the matter doctor? You seem on edge.""</span>

Dr. White appeared to consider the circumstances for a moment before leaning forward and speaking with a hushed voice <span class=""bb-b"">""Are we safe? Like.. Is the room secure?""</span> Victor gave only a nod in response and was careful to keep his face stone cold. <span class=""bb-b"">""Okay. Listen Victor. I know what you're doing in Latveria and I didn't come here to stop you. I just.. I think you need to consider who or what you're up against here. This whole thing goes beyond Latveria. It is bigger than you or I or anything you can imagine.""</span> Dr. White paused trying to read Victor who remained silent before he began chewing his lip. 

Victor was trying to grasp exactly what he was getting at and could see Dr. White was beginning to look even more nervous than he did when he entered. Dr. White began growing frustrated with Victor's apparent lack of interest. <span class=""bb-b"">""I didn't come here for my own you know, I came here to warn someone so they don't end up like me and others who have come before me. They <span class=""bb-i"">know</span> Victor, they know who you are, what you're doing, and they're actively trying to stop you. If you continu-""</span> Victor had raised a finger and stopped the doctor in his tracks.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Who. What are you talking about? Who am I supposed to be afraid of now?""</span> Victor expressed as carefree as he could, trying to dispel any sense of fear that was beginning to stew in him. 

Dr. White leaned back and scratched his head before he started again <span class=""bb-b"">""Them. <span class=""bb-i"">They</span> Victor. The ones in control. And they don't like what you're doing. People like me, scientists usually but sometimes soldiers or doctors or anyone who just finds out too much. You're given a choice either shut the hell up or they shut you up. Don't cause problems, that's what this society is all about. If you can just be a cog in the clock and do your part without making waves they'll let you go. But if you do what you're trying to do, they start slowly and before you know it everything around you is gone.""</span> Dr. White seemed very stressed at this point and let out a harsh sigh of discontent. Suddenly the doctor rose to his feet as if about to leave before going on again <span class=""bb-b"">""I really need you to stop, please. I can't stay here I gotta go but I need you to tell me you understand.""</span> 

Victor let go of his facade before he jumped up, placing a hand on Dr. White's chest to prevent him from leaving just yet <span class=""bb-b"">""I don't understand. Please tell me what is going on.""</span> Victor looked the doctor in the eyes and silently pleaded with him for information.

The larger man sat down prompting Victor to relax and sit on the corner of his desk listening to every word coming out of Dr. White's mouth <span class=""bb-b"">""About two or maybe it was three years ago, back when the government caught wind of all this super people crap. I was part of a huge operation to try and create what they called 'defense protocols' against invasion from these super people. I got too curious and I began digging, the stuff I found was just the tip of the iceberg but that was too much as soon as they caught me I was given two basic choices. I didn't want trouble so I backed off and since then I'm constantly harassed and stressed. I'm followed and my calls are monitored. I..""</span> Dr. White stopped for a moment holding back tears. 

Dr. White suddenly stood and walked quickly to the door before he spoke for the last time <span class=""bb-b"">""Just tell me you understand what you're getting involved with.""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Oh. I understand""</span> Victor replied staring down Dr. White intensely. Bill White gave Victor one last look over before twisting the knob and walking out of his office.

Now alone Victor exhaled heavily and began to understand now, why he couldn't get anywhere with the war and why the rebels were always on the losing end and why his father had died because men greedy and believed they had the right to do what they wanted. Placing himself back behind his desk, Victor's visage was iron as he stared at a blank point in the room and let his mind go. There was no way he was going to stand for this, Victor von Doom wasn't a man to be pushed around or back down to anyone especially those who thought they belonged above him. Nobody would stop Victor from getting what he needed done, the information Dr. White told him changes nothing. Latveria is done with oppression, Victor was done being a witness, the world is done with them he decided. If Victor wanted any chance at dealing with this level of authority he needed to carefully set up his pieces before the game begins but first it was time for lunch and he'd wasted his entire day worrying about Dr. White. 

Tapping the intercom to notify his secretary Victor heard Beth reply almost instantly <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello sir? What do you need?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""I'm starving how do you feel about Mediterranean food today?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Sounds fantastic, I'll order your usual.""</span> Victor simply released his finger and leaned back smiling.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Miles Warren</span></div>
Doctor Miles Warren frantically paced to and fro in his office.  His desk that sat behind him was cluttered with loose-leaf papers, books, and reports.  Some of this mess even spilled upon the floor.

Warren had just endured a recent loss in his life a few months ago: the death of his intern and lab assistant, Gwen Stacy.  She was one of most (if not most) talented intern that Warren had ever had.  The depressed scientist truly believed that Ms. Stacy had a bright future in front of her and he would have been credited as the mentor of such a scientific prodigy.

But all those dreams and hopes crashed down to earth once Gwen Stacy died on that faithful night.  His road to fame died that night.  Even if Warren made a scientific breakthrough in his lifetime, he knew deep inside himself that his recently deceased intern would have amounted to even more than him.  Everything went to hell on the night when Gwen Stacy died.

Then there came a few heavy knocks on Warren’s office door.  Once he told whoever was on the other side of the door that the door was unlocked, Warren saw one of his colleagues, Damon Ryder, enter into his office.  The two of them had been developing and improving cloning technology.  Ryder desired to use their advances in order to reproduce extinct animals for the sake of scientific inquiry and study.  However, recently Miles Warren had other plans.

“Warren.”  Ryder talked down to his colleague, “Did you put human samples in our cloning experiment?  You do realize that that is illegal and unethical, right?”

“Well,” Warren began as he turned toward Doctor Ryder, “Now that it has been born, we might as well let it grow.  It would be just as unethical to kill an embryo, wouldn’t you say?

“It’s too late for that.  I already destroyed the sample.  This institution cannot be caught with performing illegal experiments.  Now don’t you every try a stunt like that again, do you hear me Warren?”

Warren was filled with rage.  Now, within a few months, he has seen Gwen Stacy die twice.  Despite what reports that insinuated that the incarcerated criminal, the Jack O’ Lantern, said, due to some reports mentioning that web fluid residue was found on Gwen Stacy at the scene of the crime, Warren blamed the one spider-themed vigilante in New York City: Spider-Man.  Warren has never actually seen Spider-Man before; nevertheless, he was adamant that Spider-Man was the cause of Gwen’s death.

But now, in Warren’s mind, there were two culprits.  First it was Spider-Man.  The second was Doctor Ryder.  While his colleague had turned to make his exit, Miles snatched the heaviest book he had from his desk and slammed it against the back of Ryder’s head, knocking the doctor out cold.

“Yes, Ryder, I heard you.”  Miles gloated over Ryder’s unconscious body.

Then, Warren hastened to one of his filing cabinets and pulled out several files that were labeled “Project: Wundagore”.  From these files, he took a vial that contained a clear liquid.  Once he had that container, Warren hurried out of his office and broke into Ryder’s office.  Ryder had collected numerous samples of extinct animals and plants with which he planned on using for his experiments once they had fully worked out all the bugs out of the current cloning technology.

Once Warren had found the sample that he wanted, he dashed back to Ryder’s unconscious body.  After he had combined the DNA sample with the “Project: Wundagore” liquid, Warren injected the concoction directly into the knocked out doctor.  After the syringe was drained, Miles bent down and whispered into Ryder’s ear, even though he probably would not hear Miles.

“Say hello to your wife and son for me.”</div>"

August 5th, 2012.
Sunday, Morning. 
Victor von Doom's Penthouse downtown Boston.

Victor found himself in a dimly lit room that appeared so large he couldn't see the walls, a single bright lamp was situated directly above him and stung his eyes when he tried to look up at it. <span class=""bb-b"">""H-hello?""</span> Victor called out as confusion began growing into panic. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello!?""</span> he repeated this time louder, <span class=""bb-b"">""Is anybody there?""</span> Victor felt his skin crawl as he turned in the small lit space in this ocean of darkness, he felt as if he was being watched. The silence of the room buzzed in his ears and slowly began driving him insane.

Growing more and more paranoid as the moments ticked by Victor finally mustered up the strength to begin walking into the darkness, once he passed the threshold of the light the room ignited into a scene of fire and commotion. Victor spun in confusion noticing the light was now gone and the landscape around him was a town being consumed by fire. Victor felt helpless as he watched the buildings around him submit to the inferno that raged on, the building beside him began to sag before the ceiling collapsed in forcing fire and smoke out of any openings. A blast of heat and smoke surrounded Victor for a moment causing him to stumble about coughing with blurred eyes. When he looked up he squinted through the smoke and could make out shapes of humans running in all directions, some dove in alleyways while others exited buildings and ran up the street yet none ever came close to him or even acknowledged they'd seen him.

Then the sound of an air raid horn let off in the distance wailing its warning to everyone in the town. Twisting his head around to find a place to go he could make out faint lights in the sky only moments before an explosion shook the ground beneath him, then a second one but this time closer only a few blocks away. Struggling to regain his footing all Victor could do was run away from where he believed the bombs were landing, a third explosion followed closely by a fourth and fifth one now sent pieces of wood and stone into the air raining down on him as he ran around a corner. Suddenly the sixth bomb went off striking a structure adjacent to him and tossing him into the air, the world was a blur of color before he felt himself slam into something solid. Lifting himself up off the ground with his head throbbing Victor looked up to see what he'd hit, it was a flag pole holding a symbol he hadn't seen in years - the Latverian flag.

<span class=""bb-i"">Beep, beep, beep, beep</span> the consistent maddening beeping is what brought Victor back to reality, his eyes were torn open as the events he'd just experienced sunk into his brain. Before pushing himself upright in his bed Victor slapped the top of the alarm clock to silence it. Rubbing his eyes with a thumb and forefinger Victor instantly realized what the dream was trying to say. Latveria was falling and if he didn't interfere soon it would be gone. It was the universe reminding him of his destiny and showing him what would happen if he didn't accomplish it. Today was the day he had to begin doing something besides just funding it. Each day he put off taking action was another day those innocents died and another day those in power won. 

For months he struggled with issue of how exactly he would be able to have a better impact on the events occurring in Latveria while still maintaining Doom International. It wasn't until the other day after his meeting with Dr. White that Victor had a revelation, he could use the thing that gave him his fortune in the first place, drones. All last night he had spent brainstorming and sketching out ideas, most of which had been based on a suit of high tech armor Doom had designed for himself in case he was ever subjected to battlefield conditions. Victor had dubbed the idea 'Doom Bots' and intended to use them as the bulk of his military campaign against the current Latverian government. After an entire night of work Victor intended to send his plans over to the head of his secret development team located in China but had passed out beforehand. 

Walking over to his desk Victor plopped down on the computer and opened up his email to begin writing out his request when Victor considered who may be monitoring his email. Closing the window on the computer, Victor leaned back in his chair and looked at the stack of paper he'd been working on from the night before thinking up a way to transfer the information discretely. His eyes wandered over to an older fax machine he kept but hadn't used in forever since the internet became more commonplace. Reaching into his pocket and producing the custom built phone that was synced up to his AI Victor dialed the number that directly connected him to his Chinese development center. 

After a few moments of faint ringing a voice answered in slightly broken English <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello. This is Dr. Xuecheng. Who am I speaking to?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Victor von Doom, nice to hear from you Dr. Xuecheng, how is the team going?""</span> Victor replied trying to sound casual.

A slight chuckle could be heard from Xuecheng before he spoke <span class=""bb-b"">""Not so good, we have not had real work for a few months now Mr. Doom. We've eagerly been waiting to hear from you. Do you have work for us?""</span> 

Quick to the point, this was one of many reasons Doom enjoyed Dr. Xuecheng as his head developer. <span class=""bb-b"">""Yes I've actually got a lot of work for you to do, I need it done by this fall. You understand? Do you have a fax machine by the way?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Yes we do Mr. Doom sir. I'll send a text message of the number for you. What is it you're sending if I may ask?""</span> The doctor appeared interested by Victor's urgency.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Battle drones doctor. I need at least five thousand units. They're highly sophisticated and I need you to put extra overtime into them. It is the utmost importance that they be completed on time, as always I will compensate your team as long as the job is done and done right. Is that clear Dr. Xuecheng?""</span> Victor could hear Chinese being spoken in the background when he'd finished talking.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Understood, as soon as you send the documents we will begin work immediately Mr. Doom.""</span> Dr. Xuecheng answered before he began shouting Chinese, already they were getting prepared to work.

Victor wasn't going to bother with pleasantries instead he stated coldly <span class=""bb-b"">""Good,""</span> before hanging up the phone and turning the fax machine on. After checking his phone for the number, Victor tapped it into the console and allowed the machine to do the work simply feeding it the documents he'd written up. If he could get these drones by fall he could finally launch his campaign. <span class=""bb-i"">All I need is the rebels to set themselves up in the position for a counter-attack, I need a place to begin</span> Victor thought to himself as he contemplated his next steps.



August 5th, 2012.
Sunday, Night. 
En Route to Doom International HQ.


A simply black car could be seen speeding down a vacant rode with a young Victor von Doom behind it's wheel. A yawn escaped before he turned on another rode and Victor began to reflect on how exhausted he was after a day of preparing for war. It still wouldn't be for a couple of months but the ball was in motion by next year Latveria will his. At this very moment a group of Chinese scientists would be mass producing his units that will give the Separatists the force they need to break the Latverian government's stranglehold, Victor had also managed to make contact with the rebels and inform them that in the fall there would be an attack, he ordered them to start stockpiling supplies and demanded they set up a safe point for him to land in. Currently however, he'd forgotten his phone at his office and was going to get it before returning home.

Pulling into the parking lot of his towering office building Victor noticed a few too many cars than there should be this time of night. There was a grey pickup truck which was of the security guy and his secretary's Mini Cooper which seemed strange at first but not as strange as the conspicuous tan van parked in the back corner of the lot. As he pulled into a spot and exited his car, he looked up and could see his office's light still on. Something wasn't right with the situation causing Victor to get back into his car and take the handgun he'd kept in his glove box. Checking to make sure it was loaded he stuffed it into his waistband and allowed his jacket to cover it, concealing the weapon before he began crossing the parking lot. 

He came up to the granite steps that lead up to the doors and fumbled in his pocket for his key card before he reached the door. Placing a hand on the handle Victor went to enter his key card when he felt the door wiggle and pushed on it, revealing it had been unlocked. <span class=""bb-i"">There is definitely something going on here,</span> Victor thought to himself as he entered cautiously. Peering across the lobby he could see the security desk was empty and the chair appeared to have been knocked over along with a couple papers. Victor now removed the handgun from his waistband and headed over to the stairwell. 

Victor began his ascent passing each floor and noticing they were all dark until he reached the top, the 109th floor, where his office was located. He inspected the hallway through the small glass window placed in the door and could make out the secretary desk was empty. Entering into the brightly lit hallway he crossed it silently keeping his back to one of the walls as he approached the desk. When he got close enough Victor could see two feet sticking out from behind the large desk <span class=""bb-i"">Beth..</span> he thought to himself as he craned his neck over the desk to see. There on the floor laid his secretary Beth and his security guy Doug dead, both with a bullet hole clearly placed through their foreheads still spilling blood across the floor. Victor could feel his anger level rising as he tightened his grip on the pistol and cursed silently before continuing to creep towards his own office where he believed the murder still was. 

Keeping close to the wall Victor edged closer to the door and placed his hand on the handle mentally preparing himself before he entered <span class=""bb-i"">there was going to be a gun battle in only a few seconds, aim for the chest and breath when you fire.</span> Victor thought to himself before he twisted the handle and shoved himself through the doorway. Raising his gun up Victor saw a single target standing behind his desk surprised he was there, Victor fired twice and saw both hit the man's chest with a dull thud but the figure lacked any response.

<span class=""bb-b"">""W-who the fuck are you? What are you doing?""</span> Victor stuttered filled with adrenaline and still in shock over the situation. The man was wearing a strange, long grey cloak with entirely grey skin showing off his well built body and except for matching blue boots and gloves the man was simply a figure of grey. The figure looked at him and appeared to pick up something shiny from Victor's desk before he spoke with a very mocking tone <span class=""bb-b"">""Oh Victor, I was supposed to come when you weren't here. I waited all fuckin' day to come when you weren't here and of all times to show up you decide now? And when you show up you begin shooting at me? Shameful, absolutely shameful. Disgustingly shameful actually.""</span> 

Victor was confused and could feel his hand holding the gun beginning to shake as he listened to the man go on. <span class=""bb-b"">""That gun isn't gonna help you, you're better off turning around and marching out of that door, pretending you didn't see shit and shutting the fuck up. <span class=""bb-i"">Or</span> you're gonna force my hand. I was or-""</span> Victor tried once more to put the man down by firing off three more rounds which struck him in the chest again silencing the intruder and causing him to stumble back. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Would you stop that? It isn't gonna work god dammit. Your friend Dr. White tried to shoot me too and I strangled that bastard, is that what you want?""</span> The man let off an exasperated sigh rubbing his chest before continuing <span class=""bb-b"">""I was given orders to shoot you if I came across you. I wasn't originally supposed to kill you but if you're gonna act like that you're forcing me Victor. I just want to be paid. I wasn't supposed to kill anyone at all, this was supposed to just be an in and out thing but after running into your secretary and the security guy going at it in your office I had no choice and now that you're doing this, I guess I have to go with plan b.""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""You killed Dr. White?""</span> was all Victor could get out trying to wrap his mind around the situation. The man however didn't bother to respond and instead took the small silvery ball he held in his hand and tapped it causing a bright blue light to appear. Tossing this into the air Victor could hear the faint beeping as the man ran straight towards the large windows and threw himself through them disappearing into the night air. The silver ball landed and began rolling towards Victor, <span class=""bb-i"">explosive</span> was all Victor could think. Turning to run he felt the world around him slow down as the beeps echoed in his mind, counting down to his death. Victor's feet pounded against the floor trying to carry him to safety, in the few seconds before the explosion Victor looked over and saw the bodies of his former employees. The explosive went off in a series of explosions causing deafening booms to rip through the office, tossing everything off the walls, sending glass into the night air and tossing Victor into a nearby wall. For a moment the world was pure chaos for Victor as his building was blown apart. Chunks of marble and splintering pieces of the desk came flying at Victor and would possibly be fatal had he not been wearing his protective mesh under his clothing.

When the turmoil ceased Victor found himself face down on the hard marble floor, a small pool of blood collecting under his face. Pushing himself up he felt his brow and noticed a large gash. Holding up a sleeve to soak up some of the blood Victor stumbled to the stairwell noticing smoke now filling the air. With one last look back he could see fire spreading from his office and into the hallway before he began running down the stairwell. <span class=""bb-i"">I'm dead, I have to be dead</span> he thought to himself as he went still grasping at what he witnessed. <span class=""bb-i"">No I'm not dead, I just need them to think I'm dead</span> he thought as he descended. He was still trying to get himself together by the time he got to the bottom floor and began crossing the lobby <span class=""bb-i"">The board will be able to run the business, the Chinese are still secretly manufacturing the drones and the rebels are still fighting, my armor is still hidden in my penthouse, they didn't impact my plans at all</span> he concluded as he walked out the front doors. Victor went out front of his office building and looked up seeing the top half of his building consumed by fire, he was lucky to be alive.

The sound of sirens began filling the air as emergency crews rushed to the scene. If Victor wanted the public to think he was dead, he needed to go, now. At first he thought about getting in his car but that would only get him caught, instead he took off running to the side of the lot and leaping over the stone wall that separated it from a nearby road. Victor began walking up the street quickly, trying to avoid being seen by police while thinking up where to go. It was true he had a safe house in Boston aside from his penthouse but if that guy had looked through his computer or phone he would know to go there. It looked like he would be spending the night on the streets he figured, realizing he was still carrying the gun in his hand. Victor stuffed it into his waistband once more and picked up his pace when he saw the emergency responders rushing into the side road that lead to the building's parking lot. Picking up his pace, Victor began to jog with no clear destination in mind only one goal which was to get through the night. Tomorrow he would pick up his armor from his penthouse and move to a secure place to collect himself and figure out what the hell just happened.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">September 6th, 2012
2:32 AM</span></div>


Remy made his way from the subway to the surface quickly, taking long strides, all wrapped in a leather overcoat. He wore sunglasses to hide the glow from his radiant eyes. As he walked down the nearly empty, damp street and turned into an alleyway, Remy thought about the conversation he’d had with Fence only an few hours before. He turned down another alley and stopped at a dumpster. He figured that going in through the front door of his appartment building might be a little too risky. 110th and Lexington was a major thoroughfare and it would be hard to spot a marker in the crowd. Going through the alleys and up the fire-escapes would be a safer bet. The fresh memories still rang in the darkness of Remy's mind, as if they held a valuable lesson. 

<span class=""bb-i"">“See these?” Fence held several small metal balls in his hand. 

Remy stood from the loveseat and put his coffee mug down. He was tall and skinny, but his tight, black sneaking suit also showed his solid muscular build. He pulled a wedgey from his crotch as he walked to the powering station. “What are these? For me?” 

Fence dropped the balls into Remy’s hand, turned around to open and read from a holographic screen beside him. “Yeah. I was thinking of an alternative to your cards. They work well, I won’t deny you that. But sometimes we might need something with a little more ‘umph’. These babies will make someone think twice about getting into it with you. Even someone as super-powered as you.” 

Remy juggled the four balls, smiling wide as he did. He tossed one behind his back and it fell right back into his juggling orbit. He tossed one onto his shoulder, caught the other three in one hand, rolled the one on his shoulder to his palm and forced it into the air with his power, caught it in the other hand. He started another round of juggling. “Aw, you been thinking of me, Fence?” His drawl was so strong then, as if to extend it. 

One ball goes over his shoulder and behind him, another higher than the other two. His foot knocks the one behind him further into the air and he catches the two in normal rotation in his right hand. The highest one falls back into his left hand, and he continues the rotation normally as the final one rejoins the juggle. 

“Yeah,” Fence puffed, “whatever you say, loverboy.” Fence turned to see Remy begin a feat the Cajun clearly considered to be impressive. He juggled two balls normally while dribbling one with his foot and the other with his knee, like a mad soccer player. “Alright, enough with the circus act. You ever heard of Trask industries?”

Remy kicked and kneed all the balls into his hand and then dropped them confidently on the table next to him, he breathed heavily (despite his attempts to continue looking as cool as a cucumber). “Sure. You had me hit them in ’06. Some sort of capacitor?”

“It was a solar powered portable generator. And you used it for that mission in Kuwait last year (don’t know why the fuck I gave it to you in the first place).” Fence was salty but Remy could tell that he was being reasonable, he wasn’t angry anymore. 

“What about Trask?”

“Right, well, there’s info in here saying that they’ve approached the government with a prototype Sentinel, these mutant hunters. As far as I’m concerned, the CIA is peripheral to stopping this nonsense. I want you to infiltrate their headquarters. This is a big mission, Remy. Infiltration, subterfuge, sabotage, photographs, evidence. You could be in there for days, who knows? So we need resources, technology, backup even. Do you have any contacts we could use?”
Remy looked down at the floor, his crimson eyes scanned his memory for potential allies. He came up short; as far as he knew, Fence was the only friend he had in the world. “Everyone I knew in the CIA is dead. I don’t think…wait, maybe.” Remy looked in the direction of Fence, yet was doing anything but acknowledging him. He was looking through the metal man, and toward the recesses of his memory, that place which he’d shrouded in the eternal darkness of his mind. “Down south, I could know some people down south.” Remy finally said. “But Fence, I can’t go back there. I—I can’t.”

Fence put his hands on his waist and pondered the situation for a moment. “Alright, you stay up here and gather all the resources and tech that I mark for you. When I get back we can finalize all of our plans and hit Trask.”

“Wait, wait, Fence, where are you going?” Remy had extended his hand, he was touching Fences metal arm. Yet, despite the lack of flesh contact, they were connected, friends again. 

“The Bayou,” Fence said with a smile, “gonna’ round up some sewer rats.”

“Fence, you don’t have to do that on my behalf.” The Cajun was touched, he felt a kinship with this metal man. 

“Everything we’re doing is on your behalf, Remy. The fact of the matter is that you’re my only friend in the world and I don’t know what I’d do without you. Okay? So don’t start questioning my plans simply because they are about you. You start doing that, you might as well kill yourself now.” Fence ended his conversation by pulling the powering cord from his chest and stepping from the station. 

Remy stood at the dais a little embarrassed, but mostly proud.</span>

The Cajun climbed the narrow, steep steps of a fire-escape all the way to the 12th floor. The reputable Manhattan skyline hung before him in the humid air like a painting. It was just as beautiful as it had always been, a stunning spectacle. He turned to look into his window, noticed the light was on. Either there was someone in there currently, or there had been someone there before. Fence had warned him about that, about going back to his apartment, but Remy wouldn’t listen. Just as he didn’t listen to his instincts which screamed at him to run away now. Instead he opened the window slowly and carefully. There were simply things he couldn't run away without. He wore his armored suit now, the one Fence designed for him. It was light and allowed agility but had dark purple plating all about it for enhanced protection. Most of that was hidden underneath his coat. 

<span class=""bb-i"">“Why do you have to go back? If you’re going to fucking kill yourself I might as well know why!” Fence was furious at this point, a little drunk as well. After they made up and planned the hit on Trask, they drank plenty of rum and vodka. 

“My cards, asshole! I need my cards, and my staff. Pictures, too, damnit. Leave me alone.” Remy calmly stumbled to the door, Fence stayed at the table rubbing his belly. 

“Turn your locator on!” he yelled behind the Cajun, just in case.</span>

That was a few hours before Remy crouched on the precipice of his window suffocated by the hot, dense New York air. He was a little more sober now, a little calmer. Remy had turned his locator on, he figured it was the least he could do. Fence was currently watching the Cajun’s vital signs and Seinfeld concurrently. 

Remy stepped from the sill onto the hardwood floor. He was careful not to make it squeak. He superhumanly shifted his weight so he wouldn’t be putting excess pressure onto the foot on the floor. Once he was comfortably inside he heard a small clattering, it came from the kitchen. Remy quickly pressed the small device Fence had worked out to deliver the small metal balls he’d gifted the Cajun earlier. One smooth orb fell into Remy’s waiting palm, he rubbed it lovingly. The thief walked from the living-room, where he’d entered, and slipped into the hallway heading into the kitchen. Remy heard a ruffling behind him, his bedroom, and quickly spun in time to see an MIB, utterly unprepared. Remy acted quickly, sending the uncharged ball into the man’s chest. It knocked the air from his lungs and sent him back a little. Remy completed the attack by kicking the man in the chest, and following him further into the room. The spook crashed into the closet behind him and tried to draw his pistol. Remy kicked the man in the face, breaking his nose and knocking him unconscious in one hit. The Cajun turned toward the door of the bedroom, saw another spook in the kitchen. He dropped a ball into his hand just as the MIB drew his pistol. Remy tossed the charged orb into the kitchen and jumped to his side just as the agent fired. Remy bounced over his bed and dropped to the other side, he looked under the bed to find his bo staff case. The Orb exploded and a scream came from the kitchen. 

Remy stepped out into the hallway, broken glass crunching under his feet, bo staff in hand. He entered the soot covered kitchen, noticed the twitching feet poking out from behind the island countertop. The agent had been blown to the other side of the kitchen, shrapnel was stuck into his neck and chest. Remy’s heartbeat increased and his breathing seemed sporadic. Fence looked over from Seinfeld to see the spike in Remy’s vitals. He leaned forward and whispered to himself, “Come on, Remy. Get out of there.” 

The metal man couldn’t tell what had Remy so worked up, he couldn't know that he was no longer in immediate danger. He was frightened because he’d just been responsible for the death of a government agent. And, if the .22 caliber pistol next to the corpse meant anything, it was probably a CIA agent. Remy was fast after that, he packed some clothes, and his bo staff, and pictures of him and his adopted family, the LeBeau’s. Along with all that came a pistol, and a few extra clips. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">3:30 AM</span></div>

Remy sauntered up to the reception area of the motel, tapped the bell. It didn’t take him too long to head uptown and find this motel in the North Bronx. He signed a phony name in the registration book, gave the clerk 50 bucks, and made his way upstairs. Remy stripped the bed clean, found no bedbugs, and so laid his head on the naked pillow. He hoped to get enough sleep to be functional for the mid-afternoon meeting he had scheduled with Fence. The Cajun’s stomach growled and he tried his best to ignore it.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">June 28th, 1914. Sarajevo</span>

Today had been a very bad day for Gavrilo. 

Sitting outside of a deli on Franz Joseph Street, Gavrilo could barely even look at the sandwich he had ordered, much less consider actually eating it. All that planning, all that preparation... all for Nothing!

Gavrilo barely had the energy to look up as someone took a seat at his table. His eyes narrowed into a spiteful glare as he noticed the silver scars around the man's mouth. ""You lying son of a-"" 

""Calm down before you draw attention to yourself."" Loki answered in a tone so silky and smooth that a mink would happily have taken off its own coat to give it to someone who quite clearly deserved it more. While it was enough to silence Gavrilo, the young man continued to seethe at the being that he had helped summon into the world. 

""You promised us that the Archduke's head would be ours for the taking."" Gavrilo spat at the trickster, keeping his voice low to avoid turning attention to anyone who happened to be nearby. ""You told us that you would help us free Bosnia from the Imperial dogs!"" 

""And I delivered what I promised. Your Archduke was in your city, moving very slowly and clearly visible to everyone within the crowd. It is not my fault that neither you or your cohorts was able to capitalize on the situation."" Loki responded with a mixture of hurt and amusement. ""As I recall, you were the one who made it quite clear that you wanted either yourself or one of your little friends to take the Archduke's life. Something about wanting his death to be a symbol?"" He prodded.

Gavrilo fumed for a few more seconds before finally taking a deep breath and letting out a loud sigh. ""You're right. Can you at least tell me what happened?"" Reaching for his sandwich, Gavrilo lifted it up in order to have something to do so he didn't just start screaming in frustration as he listened to <span class=""bb-i"">why</span> everything had gone to hell.

For his part, Loki decided to get to the point. ""The first two chickened out. The third seemed to have a change of heart and backed out as well. The fourth lined up the shot but I believe his weapon jammed and I'm sure you heard of Nedeljko's attempt already. Idiot missed and jumped into a four inch river. If I had to guess, he is currently being worked over by the authorities in a cell somewhere as we speak.""

It was a good thing that Gavilo's mouth was full of a fairly decent sandwich; Otherwise his mother would have been horrified at some of the things he would have said. Chewing slowly in order to try and work through his frustration, Gavilo managed to to come up with a plan of action. ""Okay. Today was a bad day and beyond salvaging at this point. I'm going to have to go into hiding for a while along with everyone else before Nedljko breaks and tells them anything. I'm sure that you'll be able to create another opportunity soon enough.""

Loki couldn't help but show off an all knowing grin as he rose a hand up and snapped his fingers. A car started to stall from what sounded like the road in front of the deli. ""It's interesting that you say that Gavilo..."" was all Loki said as he turned to look towards the road.

Gavilo followed Loki's gaze and he dropped his sandwich in shock at what he saw. Right there, barely three strides away, was the Archduke in his stalled car. He was talking to his bitch of a wife, laughing about something that he had missed due to his own conversation. Glancing back towards where Loki had been seated, Gavilo saw nothing but an empty seat and thin air where his supernatural 'ally' had once been seated. 

Standing up, Gavilo reached for his pistol...

With two shots, the world changed.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">May 15th, 1945. Somewhere between Friedrichskoog and Neuhaus, Germany</span>

The fog that surrounded Heinrich was as thick as pea soup, blocking out just about every sound that wasn't his own breathing or his heartbeat. He honestly felt as if he was completely alone instead of traveling with a few trusted followers. Such fogs weren't unheard of, but it was weird none the less. 

For Heinrich Himmler, it seemed to perfectly reflect the state of his mind; For the first time in his life, he couldn't see where he was going, couldn't tell what was happening in the world around him but he knew that if he wanted to survive the fall of the Reich he needed to keep moving for him to have chance to escape the invisible noose of Allied and Soviet solders that was tightening around his neck. 

After what felt like hours of walking blindly, the fog started to lighten up and the sun started to shine properly. Looking up at the bright blue sky for a moment, Heinrich felt the horrible weight of the world ease if only for a moment. Maybe everything wasn't as bad as it seemed? ""It would seem that things are starting to look up for once."" Heinrich offered, glad for the opportunity to break the awful silence for a change. 

""Yes, the world does seem to be getting a little brighter now a days, doesn't it Mr Himmler?"" 

Heinrich stopped as utter horror flooded his mind. That voice didn't belong to any of his followers. Before he had the chance to turn around and try to defend himself he felt something coil around his neck and tighten, cutting off his air ways. Despite his efforts to struggle and breath whoever had jumped him seemed to have the strength of ten men and refused to budge or give any slack. Soon, the struggles grew weaker and Heinrich's body started to go limb. Soon, the world went dark and Heinrich Himmler knew no more.

With his self appointed task complete, Loki let out a grunt as he carefully laid the corpse of a man who frankly made Odin's questionable methods of maintaining order look like a joke on the ground. Taking a moment to look around at several other bodies, Loki sighed aloud a little at the work that he still needed to do... Before grinning a little. This was <span class=""bb-b"">sooo</span> going to be worth it.   

........................................................................................
<span class=""bb-b"">May 20th, 1945. Paris, France</span>

The atmosphere in Paris was ablaze with good cheer and excitement as the news spread to more and more people by word of mouth, but in order to get the solid, known facts of the story all one had to do was look at just about any newspaper worth reading. Heinrich Himmler, one of the leaders of the Reich and the mastermind behind the horrors of the death camps that the Reich sent those it deemed unworthy of life, had been confirmed dead. A tip off from an unknown source to a possible safe house the monster was hold up in had ended with them finding Heinrich's body hanging from a tree out the back, all evidence suggesting that he took his own life rather then be caught and put on trail for his crimes against humanity. 

As welcome as news of the bastard death had been, that wasn't what was so juicy about the whole thing; Found on Heinrich's body was a last will and testament that was written in Himmlers own handwriting confessing that after his last few followers had abandoned him to try and save themselves and reflecting on his life and works, Heinrich found himself horrified at the things he had done in the name of the Nazi ideology and the Reich. Renouncing the Nazi ideology, the Reich and all of the things that had been created in its twisted image, Heinrich's tear soaked farewell begged his loved ones and God to forgive him. 

At his table at a more or less random coffee shop, Loki (In the guise of an American solder on leave) couldn't help but smile a little as he reread the story in the paper while sipping his cup of coffee. Oh, of course there will be voices that claimed that the will was a planted fake (Which it was) but Loki hadn't been known as the God of Lies for nothing. For all intents and purposes Himmler might as well have written the damn thing himself; Maybe one day humans might come up with a way to figure out that Himmler hadn't written his last will and confession, but by that point the damage would have already been done.

All Loki had to do was sit back, drink his coffee and enjoy watching the few remaining pieces of the Nazi Reich burn down.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">South Bronx, New York
September 7th, 2012
11:23 AM</span></div>

Remy laid half nude atop the motel bed, his white boxers caught the sunlight like a crystal, refracting and reflecting. He snored loudly for a moment, which turned into a steady moan. He fumbled with the pillow as if it were uncomfortable and turned into a fetal position. A small discolored circle on Remy’s waist was all that was left of his physical wounds from the fateful day when he lost his family; the mental wounds would always be there, like a ghost, they would appear and chill him to the bones. 

A quiet noise breached the humid summer silence. A humming signaled the presence of a drone, it’s shadow was cast into the motel room from the window. The little white floating robot was no larger than a microwave, no smaller than a toaster. It was a disk with an armored shell. A small prong extended from its centrifugal form and tapped the window, it shattered. Remy awoke violently from his sleep, in a moment he was stood atop the bed. The little drone expertly floated into room and landed on the floor, a hologram appeared above it, Fence’s face. 

“Glad to see you’re up.” Fence was sitting in a train headed down the eastern seaboard, he’d catch a biplane in Florida. Fence was rather picky about how he traveled, never in a way where he was completely trapped in, what he considered, a death trap. He’d fly the biplane, he could leave the train at any of the many stops. He was sitting in a private booth by himself, speaking into his newly fixed HUD. 

“I wasn’t till yo’ damn drone came through the window!” Remy sat at the edge of the bed, lazily stared at the virtual representation of Fence. “What dis doing here anyway?”

“I’m on my way down to Florida, I won’t be able to meet you. But, HARDy here has some equipment and documents for you. I found a place for you to stay, a friendly place. Make sure you read everything I sent you before you head out…”

“HARDy?”

“Oh, yeah, I built him last night, while you were out. Cool hu? It stands for Helpful Assistance and Recon Drone.”

“Well, dat’s just adorable.” Remy responded as he wiped the tiredness from his eyes.  “When will you be back?”

“I’d like to be back by Monday, we should be able to hit the target a few days after that.”

“Yeah, yeah, don’t say too much over dese channels.” Remy felt a little vulnerable in this motel. He knew the espionage game, he knew the different ways in which people could gather information. Remy was pretty sure no one had followed him to the motel, so physical surveillance was very unlikely. And, of course, Remy trusted Fence’s encryption methods. But if there is one thing the Cajun learned during his escapades with espionage types, it was that you could never be too careful, or too paranoid. 

“Please, Remy. I built HARDy, and set up his comm channels myself. Do you think I’d leave a hole in the gate? Don’t insult me. This is a secure channel. Anyway, see ya!” Fence replied, smiling. He was proud of Remy, they were going into the breach, two adventurers out on a limb. Remy was always prepared, always thinking; Fence couldn’t think of a better partner. 

The hologram disappeared and the drone lifted off of the ground, that’s when Remy noticed he wasn’t being controlled, HARDy was intelligent. He hovered right over the bed, the cameras twirled from the plastic band running along it’s center, positioning itself perfectly over the pillow. A PDA fell from a compartment at the bottom of the drone’s body, a GPS came out behind it, and then a paintball case filled with the prototype metal balls. 

The twitching feet came back into Remy’s mind, his throat ripped to pieces by metal bits and his face burned to a crisp. Seeing the metal orbs again made him feel a twinge of regret, they were killing machines, especially when combined with Remy’s deadly powers. Cards were far less deadly. Sure, there would be scratches, at the worst someone would die days later from impact shock, but nothing so brutal as fragmentation explosions. 

“Hey, can I speak to Fence again, HARDy?”

HARDy bobbed a little in the air, hovered over to the ground and sat again. Fence came up as a hologram moments later. 

“Fence.”

“Yes, Remy.” Fence seemed a little annoyed. The fact was that a very beautiful woman had slipped into his booth, she was a bit of a technophile, it seemed. There was a blossoming of those. Fence had just promised to order a bottle of chardenea. 

“I don’t know if I want to use these pellets.”

“Why?”

“I killed an agent last night…”

“What?!? Where?”

“In my apartment, it was terrible. There was shrapnel, Fence.”

“Yeah, I was worried about that. The batch I just gave you have been redesigned. The shrapnel was an accidental consequence of the old design. I’m sorry you had to go through that.”

“I think I’ll be alright. It’s not the first time I’ve killed a government official.”

There was an eerie quietness over the line, both Remy and Fence were embarrassed by that truth; each for different reasons. “Anything else?” Fence finally asked.

Remy thought for a moment, shook his head. “No, I’ll talk to you later.”

“Yeah, HARDy will patch us through once you get to your new home.” And with a click the hologram was gone. HARDy zipped up and out of the room as Remy slid into his body suit. 


<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">59th St Subway station, New York
3:30 PM</span></div>

The glistening A train started up and then chugged out of the station, almost everyone left on the platform made their way to the stairs. Remy, wrapped in his overcoat, slid into the shadows of the subway tunnel and began running down the darkened highway. A puddle of muck splashed under his feet as he detoured into a small hallway which ended in a manhole. Remy dropped down in and plunged even further into the muck. Remy ended up at a delta of sewage-ways, he stood on a platform on the side, looking down the red-lit corridor. Remy carried a duffle bag over his shoulder, he turned to his right and began walking. It was easy to ignore the smell, Remy had surprisingly been in worse. He smiled when he saw the green light which signaled the location of his safe zone. A vaulted door, outfitted with a security panel, shone in the verdant light. Remy plugged the numbers he’d been given into the keypad, a fingerprint scanner revealed itself directly below the keypad. Remy removed his glove, unlocked the door, and stepped in. It was a moderate space. Nearest the door was a small cot with a dresser at its feet. Opposite the cot was a couch and desk. Set up on a concrete dais was a kitchen area, a bathroom was hidden to the side behind an opened iron-bar gate. 

Remy placed his bag down and sat on the cot, the vault door closed automatically behind him. “I could get used to this place,” Remy commented as he fell to the pillow, he’d need some rest before a heist Fence had planned for him for later that night.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Location</span>: S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier 2
<span class=""bb-b"">Position</span>: 15,000ft. Exact Coordinates Classified. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Time Index</span>: 0730 hrs March  4th 2012


His eyes snapped open. His breathing became shallow. The panic rose in his chest. What was he doing here? Where was he? <span class=""bb-i"">Who</span> was he? It took a few moments before the device lodged in his brain kicked in and he remembered. He was Tony Masters, he was in his room on the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier and he always hated when this happened. The organo-drive always took a split second to interact when he came conscious from sleep or being knocked out. It was an unfortunate side effect of the device and a tactical disadvantage in the field but it was unavoidable. The crossover between man and machine was a complex one and the interfacing on such a level was not without its bugs. 

Masters swung out of his bunk and groaned. The bruises were still fresh on his body from his last mission. It seems jumping onto a moving train from a helicopter was not a very viable option but I had been the only one. Plus the environment suited Master’s talents. He was one of the best CQB combatants that S.H.I.E.L.D. had on staff, with exception of few other super-powered agents of course, and as Captain America was on mission trailing the Red Skull, he was next in line for the job.

He sat up in bed and looked along the wall the cot was attached to. Pictures covered almost every free area of it. There were pictures of places. Pictures of people. Pictures of faces. Faces that Masters couldn’t remember. He was in some of them. He reached out and grabbed one at random. He vaguely recognised the place. A city, the lights illuminated behind her. He didn’t recognise the person in the photograph though. Tony ran his thumb over the face. It was a girl. Short, dressed in a black jumpsuit. Looked like the S.H.I.E.L.D. ops uniform. The pitch black pixie cut had a single hand running through it. The movement hid a vague smile. Masters turned over the photograph. On the back, he saw handwriting. “Jubilee. One of the most immature students I’ve had. One of the finest agents I’ve had as well. Hong Kong. August 2011.”

Jubilee. Masters wasn’t surprised if he’d forget the name by the end of the day. He’d just have to trust his own judgement. He stuck the picture back in place. He did know that it was a thing his doctor had recommended to help his memory and try to combat the new condition he’d identified. What was it he called it? Cognitive patching? His brain had begun “sewing” unrelated events that had been fragmented to form new memories. The condition had been discovered when, going through his post-mission memory recall exercise with the Doc, when asked who was the current President, he’d answered with “Benjamin Asher”. Upon further probing, Masters recalled an attack on the White House and wondered why S.H.I.E.L.D. had not intervened. They learned that Masters’ brain had taken a memory of a film that he’d forgotten he’d watched but not forgotten the events of and cobbled it together with real life to make sense of the rogue fragment. In short, to cope with the info, Masters’ brain had integrated it as part of reality. He still couldn’t get over that. A fictional President.

Masters swung out of his cot and strode over to the sink in his room. He gripped the edges of the sink bowl as the water ran from the tap. Masters, as one of the top meta-human agents in SHIELD, had been leading the task force in dealing with the public reaction to meta-humans and mutants. Already there were extremist anti-mutant groups popping up in the public eye, the most media focused being the so-called “Purifiers”. They’d already been linked to the deaths of several people who’d been suspected of being mutants. SHIELD also had its eye on an millionaire mogul named Bloom.
 Fury, however, had taken Masters from his normal set-up in the Triskelion to the Helicarrier. He’d gone to Fury and asked why he’d been moved, Fury had simply said that “information on a new threat had surfaced.” Masters looked up into the mirror in front of him. He didn’t know what Fury wanted the Taskmaster for or what this new threat was, but if it was enough to stop Masters dealing with this worsening national panic, it was definitely going to be bad.</div>"

Late Morning
Manhattan, New York</span></div>


Matthew stepped from the dusty cab seat into the humid, buzzing atmosphere of 35th street. His walking stick collapsed from his hand and clacked against the sidewalk. Matthew drew a bill from his back pocket, a bill which he knew was a twenty, and offered it through the open passenger window. 

“Thanks” he said softly, stepping back from the curb and against a mailbox. He could tell it was a mailbox because of it’s bulkiness, the hard rusted metal which he’d seen all his life. Matt reached up to his chest to make sure his tie was straight, then lined up his lapels. He’d dressed himself this morning, sent a nearly unusable selfie to Karen in order to make sure he matched. The magic of smart phones was something that made being blind a little easier. 

Matthew lifted his head into the smoggy air and basked in the beaming sunlight. He removed his red tinted glasses, used to protect his still sensitive eyes, and felt the warmth cover him completely. He felt a sense of oneness then, a transcendental, numinous experience; one which could not be described or recommissioned. 

Just then he felt a tug on his slender wrist. The delicate fingers traced the pit above his thumb and ran over his veins, finally grabbing at the palm. He clasped back when he realized who it was. The delicate and deliberate movements of Karen could never be forgotten to him, no matter how many senses he lost. Her lips met his and he struggled to anticipate the kiss. Almost a quarter of a year after the accident and he was still playing catch-up. 

“Come on.” She said quietly, leading him through the jumbled crowd. He realized that people were parting for him and Karen. He pulled his hand away to relieve himself of the spectacle. Karen glanced back with worry, but settled into embarrassment when she realized what she’d been doing. He was like a child trailing behind her. Matt collapsed his walking stick and continued behind her, making sure to keep her arm sleeve within arms reach for confirmation. He made it all the way through the block and up the stairs without bumping into anyone or tripping on anything. Something he thought he should take pride in, and yet he couldn’t bring himself to. 

Quietly in and up the elevator for a long while until Matt could hear the door slide open and Karen’s heels click against the floor. Once again, vague, undefined outlines blur somewhere in Matt’s mind and he could see a faint approximation of the room. There was no color or definition, but he could “see” it. And then it was gone. Matt stood in the elevator for just a moment, trying to take it all in. 

“This is the floor.” Karen said, stopping the door from closing. “You don’t have to be nervous. I told you, Mr. Nelson knows exactly who you are. He wants you.”

Matt feigned consolation, smirked before crossing the threshold into the air-conditioned corridor. “Of course.”

The Nelson &amp; Son law firm was a small group of liberal lawyers from Chicago, some of which were related. Karen had just begun work as a paralegal there only a few months ago. It provided the perfect entre for Matt. He sat carefully in the comfortable chair, 5 paces from the door. He crossed his legs in front of him, opened his portfolio case, and let his walking stick lean against his chair. The door opened behind him and a man walked in, his half inch heels slightly scuffing against the tile. He smelled like a New Yorker despite being the eldest member of the firm, Ronald Nelson (the father), and raised primarily in Illinois. He grunted as he sat but the chair didn’t, he scooted forward silently; he was a thin man, roughly 6’2. Matthew could tell this from only his most mild observations. 

“A pleasure to meet you, Matthew” Ronald said pleasantly. 

“Quite a pleasure to be here, Mr. Nelson. I couldn’t turn down meeting a former state attorney, with at least the chance of working for him.” Matt said clearly, confidently, whilst rubbing the hard leather of his binder. 

Ronald Nelson scoffed, probably waved his hands. “That’s all in the past, young man. You’ll find that I’m not as sharp as that man was.” He chuckled. Matt could hear the click of glasses unfolding. “So, I have your resume here. I’d be liable if I just said ‘impressive’.”

Matt smiled at that. 

“Bronx Science, Leehman honor student. We have one of those here working for us.” Ronald noted off-handedly. 

“I know,” Matt said shyly with a smile. 

The rest of the interview continued along informal, affable lines. They ended with a warm hug, and Matt receiving a set of keys in his breast pocket. “See you Wednesday. Do you need a layout of the building?”

Matt shook his head, collapsed his walking stick. “I have an excellent scout.” He said with a smile. He walked the 5 paces back to the door, stopped to carefully open it, and traveled the remaining 20 paces to the elevator, missing the button narrowly by an inch on his first try. “Almost got it” he whispered to himself as he made his descent.</div>"

Like every other first saturday of each month, the newly renovated fight gym became an open house arena. Sanctioned fight cards were filled to the brim with local talent, putting butts in seats for 40 a piece, and tonight was a full house. This was Shang's money maker, the place he went to punch in his timecard. What better way for the Master of Kung Fu to earn his keep than through Mixed Martial Arts prizefighting!

<div class=""bb-center"">***</div> 
Matthew ""Tha Wreckah"" O'Donnell was beating the living daylights out of Shang-Chi. Thirty seconds into the first round, Tha Wreckah made his professional debut sing with a flying knee to the face. The execution of the move was satisfactory, Shang-Chi thought, disregarding how exposed O'Donnell's guard was, how imbalanced and squared up the shot left him afterwards. It didn't matter. Shang followed the script as intended. He measured the distance of Matthew's trajectory and course corrected his own position by milimeters, back stepping just enough to make it look like the hit had landed. Shang let his acting skills do the rest. The crowd erupted.

""OH! FLYING KNEE KYLE!! HE LANDED A FLYING KNEE!"" One commentator croaked. 

""Did you see how Shang's head flew back from the hit, John? Man! THAT. HAS. GOT. TO. HURT!""

<span class=""bb-i"">It did hurt, Kyle, but my pride will manage. The rent needs to get paid after all.</span>

 Shang-Chi let out an outward sigh, careful not to look so visibly disappointed. O'Donnell pressed forward, pinning Shang against the caged wall of the octagonal ring. He didn't need to see the moves telegraphed, he could <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span> them coming. It was like watching your favorite movie for the 1,000th time, only now you're viewing it with an entirely new audience that's never seen it before. You know which scene is coming next, but you stifle your excitement and act just as surprised as everyone else. 

""Left hook overhead from O'Donnell lands!""

<span class=""bb-i"">Shouldn't have caught that looping hook with my guard so easily. Now I have to jerk my head around and pretend like the impact rattled me. Should I make a grimacing face? I feel like I should make a grimacing face. No, don't overdo it.</span>

""Wow! Nice follow up left hook to the body!""

<span class=""bb-i"">It was decent. I mean, he could've stepped into it more to torque the shot. Had to let him land that one on me anyways - no other way to really make it more convincing. Just hope I didn't break his hand. Oh I see the right coming! I should make it look like he split my guard. I'll weave my head off to the side right when he fully extends...now</span>!

""Straight right hand lands for O'Donnell! Shang's head flies back again! Man, Tha Wrecka just can't miss tonight! He is landing everything!""

""That's right, John! That right hand split through Shang's guard like butter! Shang's going to have to pivot off of the cage and fight from the ce-""

<span class=""bb-i"">Good idea. Simple sidestep - mid stride...nothing too fast, got to make it look like I'm still recovering from that right hand...</span>

Matthew bounces off of the cage, turning to face his opponent with a confident grin. Shang reads Matthew's body shift and nods approvingly to himself with the next set of moves he plans on dishing out. The crowd is standing on their feet now. 

<span class=""bb-i"">They're gonna love this one.</span>

""Holy Wakanda on Ice Skates! O'Donnell just knocked out Shang-Chi with a spinning back fist and superman punch!"" 

""Matthew ""Tha Wrecka"" O'Donnell welcome to the fight game!"" 

""MAMA MIA!!!!!"" 

Shang-Chi lays on the sweaty foam mat of the ring and closes his eyes for what felt like the first time in days. The roaring cheers of the crowd are dulled by the intense heavy metal soundtrack blaring through the portable amps. 

<span class=""bb-i"">The ring doctors will come in any second now and flash their bright pen lights into my eyes...</span>

""Wake up, Mr. Shang. Wake up!"" 

<span class=""bb-i"">Just let me sleep...</span>

""How many fingers do you see, Mr. Shang?"" 

<span class=""bb-i"">You are about to see my favorite one if you don't back off!</span> ""I'm f-fine..I'm fine."" Shang uttered, rolling onto his stomach and curling up into a ball. ""Just let me rest for a moment."" 

<font color=""gold"">Get up you coward! You can take this fool! Use my chi and end this!</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">That's not how this works.</span>
<font color=""gold"">Do enlighten me!</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">I stay down so the greasy man in the far corner of the room pays me double my original contract. The local prospect gains marketability by knocking me out with style, and I don't have to light candles in my apartment for the next three months.</span>
<font color=""gold"">You...<span class=""bb-i"">wanted</span> to lose?</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">What I want has nothing to do with it. If it did, you and I wouldn't even be having this discussion. Or ANY discussion or that matter.</span>
<font color=""gold"">To call one such as you pathetic is an understatement. You are a failure beyond belief!</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Then what does that make you, exactly?</span>
<font color=""gold"">A complete and utter disgrace of the gods. To be forced to endure such cowardice is a twisted hell onto itself, even for me! Perhaps this is divine punishment finally catching up to me after all these millennia...</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">After what you did to Danny, to hear that you are suffering is... euphoric.</span>
<font color=""gold"">Again, with this? Bah! Haven't you lear-</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Shut up.</span>

Shang slowly got up to his feet. The crowd applauds to his good health. Matthew ""Tha Wrecka"" O'Donnell rushes over and hugs him respectfully. The two are seperated by the referee as the ring announcer makes the call. 

""THE WINNER BY WAY OF KO, MATTHEW ""THA WRECKA"" OOOO'DOOONNEEELLLL!!!"" 

Shang puts on his best sad face for the crowd. The referee raises Matthew's left hand. He grimaces in pain and nurses his wrist soon after. Shang grins. The two fighters look at each other. 

""Man, you're built like stone bro! Think I broke my hand."" Matthew frowned, forcing a smile from the jolts of pain.

<font color=""gold"">What a stupid mortal! Shang-Chi is not the stone fist! He is the immortal IR-</font> 

""Shut up!"" Shang yelled abruptly. For a moment the air was tense, and awkward, but the reaction was taken as a sign of poor sportsmanship, so Matthew just shrugged it off. The heavy metal music intensified, cueing the announcer to set up the next fight card. Shang-Chi was escorted off the ring and greeted with boos from the crowd.

<font color=""gold"">Look! They adore you! The Legendary Iron Fist is loved by all!</font> Shou-Lao the Undying chortles. Shang said nothing. He trudged over to the far corner of the room where the greasy man said he'd be. He wasn't there. 

<font color=""gold"">Uh oh...</font> 

Shang-Chi looked around but the man was nowhere in sight. He surveyed the environment for the man's lackadaisical chi signature until he found remnants of it seeping away through the front entrance. ""Uh-oh indeed."" He clenched his teeth and bolted out the double-doors. Shang followed the energy trail down a couple of blocks until he arrived in front of a nightclub. 

""Flint, you stupid, stupid man."" Shang stepped forward, but a large bouncer stopped him in his tracks. 

""No shirt, no love."" The bouncer said sternly. In the midst of his sudden fury, Shang forgot that he was still in his black fight trunks and nothing more. The crowd lining up to get inside the club began cheering, and whistling, and yelling things, instigating for an altercation to happen. Cell phones were out and recording the scene. 

<font color=""gold"">SLAY THEM ALL! UNLEASH THE FURY OF SHOU-LAO THE UNDYING! WHIRLWIND KICK THEM INTO THE UNDERWORLD SO THAT I MAY FEAST ON THEIR SOULS! GI-</font>

""Shut the hell up you annoying son of a bitch!"" Shang thought he was thinking those words, but he wasn't. The bouncer glared. Whoops. Two more equally huge men stood behind him, all three now charging forward to grab Shang. ""Great..""

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Peter Parker</span></div>
Peter, entirely decked out in his Spider-Man costume, sat on the edge of the local library’s roof.  Whenever Peter needed to be alone, this was where he would go.  It also made for a very good alibi too.  “Yes, Aunt May.”  Peter would say, “I’m just at the library.”  It was not a total lie.  Just a short exaggeration.  He was in fact at the library, although he was not there to study.  Back when he first started his crime-fighting career, Peter had built a small device that allowed him to listen to the police scanners, carefully listening to see if anything was happening that night.

Peter decided to hang out at the library that night because he had gotten in a little argument with his aunt.  Well, it was not really an argument.  His aunt was just trying to set him up with their neighbor’s niece.  Let alone Gwen Stacy’s death was still fresh in Peter’s mind, his aunt’s attempts to ‘hook him up’ with Anna Watson’s niece was a little insulting.  Peter was able to start a relationship with Gwen alright without anyone setting them up.  Why would it be any different now?  Plus, he just was not ready to move on.

Suddenly a voice erupted over the police scanner.  Apparently a domestic crime was in progress.  While Peter usually allowed the Men in Blue handle these types of crimes, since once he got a frying pan to the face when he stuck his nose into affairs that were not his business, this case seemed different.  There were reports of possible super-human involvement.  Although he did not doubt the NYPD’s ability to handle such crimes, Peter decided that he might as well take a look.  What else was he going to be doing that night?  Sleeping?

After he used a combination of leaping between buildings and using his web shooters to cross gaps that were a little out of his leaping range, Peter finally arrived at the house where the domestic violence had been reported.  As quietly as he possibly could, Peter slid open one of the windows and entered into the house.  Peter had obviously entering into the owner’s study, as boards covered with equations and diagrams filled the room.  As Peter took a little closer look at what was written on these boards, he saw that the general theme had to do with dinosaurs and other extinct animals, particularly dealing with resurrecting them through cloning.

“Hasn’t the owner of this house seen <span class=""bb-i"">Jurassic Park</span>?” Peter thought to himself as he examined the boards in the office study.  “Anyone who has seen it would know that this is a terrible idea!   Chaos Theory, man!  Chaos Theory!”

Peter than heard a noise emanate from somewhere else in the house.  He knew that something was not right, not only from his Spider-Sense, but also from his own gut feeling.  As Peter approached the study’s exit, he noticed that there was large gashes the on wall.  “What could have done that?”  Peter thought while he was turning the handle of the door.

Once outside in the hallway, Peter followed the strange noise, walking as quietly and as gracefully as he possible could so that whatever was making that noise was not alerted to his presence.  The closer that Peter got to the origin of the sound, the clearer the sound that he heard.  It almost sounded like someone (or something) was chewing on something (hopefully not on someone).

When Peter had arrived at one of the other doors in the house, he knew that the source of the sound was coming from that room.  Peter lightly pushed open the door open, although after the door was opened Peter probably wished that he had not opened it.  On the floor there was a man kneeling.  Well, not exactly a man, since he looked more like a cross between a human and velociraptors from the <span class=""bb-i"">Jurassic Park films</span>.  Blood was dripping from the man’s mouth.  When Peter looked down at the man’s knees, he saw whose blood it was.  There on the ground was woman, although you could barely tell her gender from the corpse because lacerated by this human monster.

Peter slammed the door shut in an attempt to put a barrier up between him and whatever that thing was in that room.  While Peter has seen some pretty crazy things since he took up the mantel of Spider-Man, this was the cherry on top.  “What the hell was that thing?”  Peter thought to himself, being both sick to his stomach and freaked out by what he saw inside that room.

Then the door handle began to turn and a violent thrust forced the door to open up.  However, utilizing his Spider-Sense, Peter had already instinctively anticipated this, allowing him to react and draw the door back.

“Crap.”  Peter said to himself as he pulled on the door handle to prevent the thing on the other side of the door from exiting the room, “I forgot those raptors from <span class=""bb-i"">Jurassic Park</span> could open doors.”</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Somewhere between Connecticut and Rhode Island
September 8th, 2012
3:23 AM</span></div>

Remy sped down the i 95 at blistering speeds. The dirt kicked up from the supped up Harley Davidson tittered the chrome muffler and trailed behind him like a comet’s tail. A matte black helmet covered Remy’s face as he sat hunched over on the speeding bike. 

The dossier for this assignment, Fence was really big on dossiers, informed Remy of a trade happening between Trask industries, and, who some may consider, henchmen for the infamous Kingpin. All in all, it was bad guys giving gifts to other bad guys. The data-logs for caches like this always read out as military equipment, so says one of Fence’s stooges. In particular, Remy was tasked with finding prototype all-in-one night-vision goggles. Trask industries recently boasted about this new invention and how it would change the lives of hundreds of thousands of military personnel. Some units may actually make it to the US military, most would find it's way to paramilitary organizations, those without a congress to reign it in. This is exactly the sort of thing Remy would need for his infiltration into Trask HQ. So, rather than letting Trask bolster his friends and allies on the streets, Fence suggested that the cache be liberated. A nearly microscopic tracker was placed in the truck before it left the HQ by Fence’s inside man. 

Remy got lost in thought for a moment as he recapped all this information in his head. He was caught on that last thought, who was this inside man? Could he be trusted? Would he come through when Remy really needed him, on the inside? Unfortunately, these were the unknowable questions, the kinds which espionage types had to let rot in their brains until truth was eventually revealed, and only as a matter of course. Remy was suddenly pelted with different questions, however. Questions which could be answered. 

Like, for example: Was that the delivery truck ahead, it’s bulbous form silhouetted by the crimson glow of it’s break lights? Was the road clear? Was this the ideal opportunity for the ambush? All the questions received a resounding yes from Remy’s instincts, and he kicked into overdrive. 

The motorcycle came right up beside the front wheel of the armored truck. The man in the passenger seat was reaching for his coffee cup in the holster when he noticed the pink glow from his peripheral vision. His reaction, to unholster his pistol, was too late. The glow had disappeared underneath the truck and the motorcycle next to him sped off in front. 

There was always a delay after Remy threw his corrupted items. It mostly depended on the size of the object, and Remy’s focus on said object before and after release. Since his cards were balanced, and he’d been playing with the things all of his life, he had a pretty good handle on how to control them, and so would always use them for situations like this. 

Just as Remy was sufficiently in front of the truck the card exploded, taking with it a section of the wheel, and parts of the radiator. The driver clearly lost control and the vehicle slid to it’s left before skitting to it’s side and toppling over, sliding only a few more feet until stopping. The wreck sent all sorts of shattered debris into the air. The truck seemed in rather good condition as Gambit strode up to it, however; in that, it was not on fire. Startled coughs came from the cab as smoke plumed from the crashed passenger side window. Remy held in one hand a pry bar, a lock-pick set in the other. The motorcycle was haphazardly parked in the middle of the highway, it’s lights illuminating the far off woods.

Intercepting the truck half way through New York and Rhode Island wasn’t the hard part, getting out unseen and unknown was the difficulty. Within moments Remy had the storage compartment lock picked. He pried it open, ending with a satisfying click which sent the rest of the door sliding open. Boxes and crates laid along the slanted truck in disarray. Remy noticed the small black crate, perfect for goggles, laying atop another, longer crate. Remy could tell that the smaller box contained exactly what he’d come here for, so he put it aside and opened the one underneath. A modified Scar-H laid in the cushioned crate, it’s ACOG scope glintning in the moonlight. Remy quickly tucked the things onto the cargo compartment of the sturdy bike and covered them with a black blanket. 

Remy heard noise behind him, feet crunching on glass after a fall. He whirled around with only one thought, his CZ SP-01 held dangerously in his grasp. The goon had an uzi in his hand, didn’t seem to have noticed Remy. The Cajun took his chance, laid one into the man’s arm, another in the knee. The goon drooped the gun and fell to his back in pain, yelling and holding his knee. The driver climbed up from the cab as well, a shotgun held carelessly before him. He immediately saw the Cajun and took aim. Remy had no choice, he capped the guy, spraying blood on the inside of the truck cab. 

Remy dropped the pistol to his side and leaned against the motorcycle in relief. The man on the floor could hardly get a grip on where he was, much less where his gun was. Remy hostered the pistol in his leg holster and straddled the bike, chuckling with a violent anxiety. As the goon screamed in the coastal air Remy placed the helmet on his head and revved the engine. He sped down the way he came, the FUBAR scene behind him. “Damn it!” he whispered to himself, “damn it!”

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Sewers under 59th St., New York
7:40 AM</span></div>

Remy was exhausted as he made his way back to his little closet among the muck. After dropping the equipment and bike back at Fence’s, Remy had to take the train back home. He wasn’t even able to sleep because of the crowded rush-hour traffic. As Remy turned the corner to his alley he noticed some huddled figures under the green light. He pulled his pistol and slid along the wall, being as quiet as he could manage. The figures seemed less and less imposing as Gambit neared, their small and cracking voices becoming clearer and clearer. 

“No, you’re gonna break it!”

“Am not, I’m the one…”

Remy cocked back the hammer of his pistol, “Don’t move” he said, “and don’t run, I’m faster than you.” The figures immediately stopped moving, immediately shut up. After a few moments of dread coursed through them, Remy put his gun down. “Turn around.”

When they did, Remy felt like he ought to reel, but he couldn’t. One had the snout of a pig, the other the beak of a bird, with feathers to match. Both of them, undoubtedly, were children. The feathered one carried a bent bobby pin and a screw driver, the other seemed to have a game boy attached to some computing system.  It didn’t take Remy long to see what was happening here. These little urchins were trying to break into his room, and they were locals. These were the legendary Morlocks, those ""freaks"" written about in the tabloid journals and confidential files alike. Remy was starting to have those lines blurred for him. 

“Back away.” The children parted with his words, like the Red Sea. He input his password and opened the door with his thumbprint. “You boys are lucky I found you. If you'd managed to open that circuit breaker and rewire it, you probably would'a received a neural shock. Don’t try it again, and I promise to teach you a thing or two.” Gambit Sauntered into the room, dropping his coat on the cot, leaving the door open behind him. He checked the mini-fridge and retrieved a couple of items. He placed the palm-sized plastic cups on his dining table, to be viewed freely. “You boys like pudding?”

The deformed boys eyed each other incredulously, smiled with salivating mouths. They passed through the threshold to receive their unforeseen reward.</div>"

Tonight was a slow night for Loki. 

Once upon a time he would have filled in his time with his plots and attempts to undermine the people Asgard, doing his official duties for Asgard to give his schemes some cover or even just sleeping around with whatever had caught his eye at the time. Life had seemed so simple then...

Shaking his head in order to focus back on the here and now, Loki looked up from reading the latest book to catch his attention (The collective works of H.P Lovecraft) and over towards the police radio on his bedside table that he had 'borrowed' as a report of a possible domestic disturbance taking place. 

Normally such a thing wouldn't have caught his attention, but it had been a rather slow night and he felt like taking the chance to stretch his legs a little; Besides it would be a good chance to pick up a light night snack of some kind afterwards. With care, Loki marked his place in the book before putting it down and getting off of his hotel bed. Walking towards the balcony, his clothing shifted from a fluffy blue bathrobe to something a little more... fitting for a being of his statue. A regal looking coat of green and gold adorned his body and a golden horned helm appeared on his head. 

Pushing open the balcony door of the top floor of the hotal and dressed for the part, Loki stepped up onto the railing before using it to push off, launching himself into the air before shooting upwards. Once he was high enough to get a good signal, he pulled a phone out of his pocket and activated one of its mapping programs, quickly typing in the address of the target building. Waiting a few seconds for it to find his destination, Loki didn't say a word as he shot off to follow his new found bearings. 

When you didn't have to worry about traffic or buildings, it didn't take all that long to arrive. Touching down in front of the reported building, Loki had considered changing outfits to that of a police uniform but before he got the chance he heard something happening inside... Like something ramming into a wooden door. Forgoing the change in outfit, Loki moved quickly towards the front door and found it unlocked. Opening it and stepping inside, he was about to call out when a stray sniff of the air alerted him to a very familiar scent. Blood.

Hearing the sound of some kind of struggle Loki started towards it at a speed most mortals couldn't believe. Going around a few corners, he stopped as he saw what appeared to be a man wearing some kind of strange spider themed outfit pressed up against a door that something on the other side quite clearly wanted out from; The noises it was making weren't human at any rate. The scent of blood was stronger here. Deciding that the strangely clothed man was going to be his best bet for getting a take on the situation, Loki moved to join him in trying to keep the door closed. ""So... what exactly are we keeping at bay at the moment?""</div>"

He faced before him streets and cities of crisp parchment wrapped in leather - descriptive tomes written aeons ago by authors only few can recall, both human and Inhuman. The man stood in the forbidden area to all but the royal family and noble or councilmen of Attilan. However of these only a handful visited the forbidden library, those whom were inquisitive perhaps, or those who sought valuable knowledge to be used in their own favour, or those who had secrets to hide.<br/>Karnak closed the tome at the end of the first extract, shuddering internally at the truths and felonies the book held. He rounded the corner swiftly and placed the tome carefully nine bundles in on the second shelf of the third case in the second quadrant of the forbidden sector.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Many speculative, though illegal, assertions to be found. But still, an area of dangerous facts locked away for good reason.</span><br/>Some were tales of ancient evils, and how to awaken them. Others listed instructions for the building of all-destroying weaponry. Finally a select few accounted times and events where the rulers of Attilan had committed crimes, or performed dubious actions, or participated in usurpation, simony and even murder.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Locked away,</span> Karnak sighed while turning and striding away, <span class=""bb-i"">for good reason.</span><br/><br/>The gigantic guard, Pholtest, straightened sharply as soon as Karnak's footsteps began to be audible through the narrow hallway. In doing so, Pholtest rammed his head into the ceiling. He softly cursed with irritation as a thin layer of dust rained down from the stone roof on and around him.<br/>Karnak passed by the guard without a word, though he had indeed noted the humorous event. The royal Inhuman entered the larger corridor and in doing so was obscured from sight by Pholtest.<br/>A few seconds after, Pholtest slumped into his usual state, shooting a glare at the hard stone above his head.<br/><br/>Karnak pushed the heavy oak door open with ease - though it was heavily padded and robust. Any man without the enhanced strength of Karnak might have had trouble in the operation of the door. Mander, Karnak's father, had on many occasions consulted the regular members of the Order of Wisdom about this issue, nagging at them to leave the door slightly ajar for the conservation of time that might be spent opening and closing the 'damned' door. Clearly, in many of the Order member's old age, the needs and wants of Mander oft slipped out of their mind, ready for the next consultation.<br/>The ground area was clear of any activity. <br/>The prominent Inhuman strolled gracefully through the expansive room, noting the cleanliness of the antiques littering the room, and also the exact point of how to break them. The Tower of Wisdom was home to many of these antiques, partly as a front of quality and long-standing for anyone outside of the Order, but mostly because the ruling Inhumans needed a viable place to put them. Mander was not wholly appreciative of the expensive gifts, alas, as it simply dealt him more things to worry about. On one visit from a group of prospective Inhumans originating from the studious schooling society of Attilan, Mander had flitted about like an irritating gnat - swatting the children's hands away from the ornaments and on multiple occasions gathering all the students he could find and drilling the large list of rules into their heads.<br/>Karnak shook his head in a rare form of humour and proceeded towards the whitewashed steps leading to the council room.<br/><br/>""...A wise man is considerate, empathic, and always aware of another's troubles. Which leads me to suggesting that,"" The droning voice of Mander the priest, and Karnak's father, drained away as the soft footsteps of Karnak approached the council congregation, ""My speculatively arrogant son is not indeed truly wise.""<br/>This constant state of friction and mutual disappointment was ubiquitous in the lives of Karnak and his father. Thus, Karnak only attended a small percentage of the regular council sessions - to avoid the exhausting conversation and to retain his calming hours of personal time.<br/>Karnak did not reply to the obvious opening line or argument until he had sat in a chair ostensibly grown from queer roots that sprouted at the wooden tables exterior. His chair was four away from Mander's position at the far right end of the table.<br/>""I would always choose intelligence over wisdom, father, and a smart man would know that they are anything but the same thing."" He challenged calmly.<br/>Karnak made a habit of ignoring the others in the room, whom did not speak but on Mander's approval. They were mere pawns of the old priest to Karnak.<br/>""Arrogance, fellow Order members. The speculations can end here."" Mander shifted his attention away from his son and onto the prime topic of concern now that the full Order was present. <br/><br/>""It has been brought to my attention that two monumental problems loom before us on this day. I shall waste no time with telling you what the current rulers of Attilan have informed me. A short few days ago, Terrigenesis yet again graced our proud society with it's gift. The subjects of this process were five highly recommended young boys and girls, on the verge of exiting their childhood. Each was an honour student with no follies or felonies recorded, and they were all at the forefront of their respective progression groups. Three boys and two girls. What came out of the Mists, however, were not the same people. <br/>""One of the fundamental concepts of the Terrigen process is enlightenment, an aligning with one's own true self and the distancing away from petty emotions like jealousy, hate and selfishness. We do not know of yet if something went wrong with the process, or if the selections for Terrigenesis were ill-founded, but we do know that this has never happened before, and it would certainly not happen to an entire group of subjects consecutively. It is common knowledge that the Mists may lower a persons intelligence and mentality, yet changing a persons morality and personality into something completely unheard of prior?

Blurted a middle-aged woman, a well-respected doctor.

<span class=""bb-b"">Summer, 2012
Late Evening
Bronx, New York</span></div>

Matthew could feel a sharp wind cross his bare back as he crossed the length of his apartment roof. He’d paced it out throughout the evening, noting where all obstroctions laid. He spoke to his supper and was able to work out a deal for the use of the hard bottomed space for practice and training. Generally this meant installing a few balance beams and punching bags, which would be easy enough with a little help from friends. He would have to use a good chuck of what little he had of his inheritance in order to fund the set-up, but this new job with the Nelson firm should allow him to bounce back easily enough. 

A small flight of pigeons cooed near a pile of seeds to Matthew’s right, he could hear their pecking and the sounds of their sharp claws etching on the concrete. His attention was drawn to them in such a way as he had not experienced before, something deep and attentive was pulled from somewhere within. And he could smell the seeds they kicked up, mixed with their feathers and the smell of cloth and detergent drifting up from the nearby laundromat. He could nearly see the birds, nearly understand them. And then, with the singular clicking from one of the birds, Matt received a clear image of the gathering of pigeons. All lined up along the side of the stone rooftop overlooking the stark skyline painted dark by the brilliant, invisible sunset behind it. The image he received was almost entirely contrasting shades with unusual dark green and blue outlines in some places, but it was entirely marvelous to him. His hand came to his mouth and he murmered something even he couldn’t understand, and his eyes watered to saturation, though a tear could not fall. 

This was the third time something like this had happened, and he knew it wasn’t normal. Perhaps it had something to do with toxic materials in the truck. Matt had be told by his doctors that the fluid seemed to have no effect, aside from the obvious, that they could tell, but had destroyed the criminal Matthew was chasing down who’d been covered in the stuff. An investigation is still ongoing as to where the truck was coming from and how it ended up where it was. Almost no progress has been made in the investigation of why these men were doing what they were doing, and why Matthew’s Aunt was a part of it. This temporary sight, and the clearly enhanced auditory and olfactory senses could provide Matthew with a new path of opportunity. 

The image of his aunt’s crushed face flashed somewhere in Matthew’s consciousness and he grimaced. The heat of anger rose up his neck and he felt the same way he had in the lamplight of the docks; <span class=""bb-i"">powerful, confident</span>. Matthew clenched one of his fists as he watched the image of the skyline fade from him, and return to nothing. Matthew would have his revenge, he’d decided <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> in the dying light of his vision. Suddenly the scuffing of sneakers against tile reached Matt’s ears and he was surprised that Karen had been able to get this far without him noticing. The morbid fascinations still hung to him like smoke to a fireman and he considered praying to make it go away; he needn’t spoil Karen with thoughts like that. She approached carefully and grabbed at his wrist first like she always did. He faked a smile through the fog of anger and the anxiety of redemption and he wondered how he’d look after all of it was done. Would he be bathed in blood, as indeed his enemies would be? Would he be the same-- could he be the same?

She smelled like lialac for some reason and the residue of envelope glue still stuck to her fingertips. He felt her sweet breath cross his chest and drift to his neck and up his nostrils. Her soft, fluffy lips met his chapped sweaty ones and lingered, her hands circling across his abdomen. 

“How’d you find me?” Matt asked.

“Tom (the supper) told me” Karen responded. 

“Can’t have secrets these days, can you?”

“Not from me.” She retorted, as if hearing his true thoughts. “I brought home something from Red Dragon.""

“That sound’s good. I’ll meet you downstairs.” He said easily. 

“You’re sweating bullets, were you just working out up here?” she asked, addressing his shirtlessness among other things. 

“Yeah, right before you came up.” He responded. It’d been an hour since he’d worked out at all, he was just steaming with anger, with regret, and sorrow, and desperation. If he wanted to be a lawyer he would have to get used to lying, at least a little. Living with Karen would be good practice.  

<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">***</div></span>

After a few more moments on the roof alone, Matt made his way downstairs. He ate with his now live-in girlfriend, “watched” some tv, and waited for her to slink off to the bedroom. After Matt was sure Karen was taking a shower he retrieved a case from behind his entertainment console and withdrew the katana therein. He focused on the smell of carbon lifting from the cold steel and rubbed the tip of his finger along the chiseled crevice, letting off a solid chime. An image of the shining sword, with it’s finely crafted handle, struck Matt with an undefinable awe. He saw his future and his past all at once and he simply couldn’t stand the anxiety, and the fear, and the anger which was welling up within him.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Peter Parker</span></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">""So... what exactly are we keeping at bay at the moment?""</span>

Peter had not expected anyone else showing up here, or at least no one except for the police.  The man in the green and gold attire spooked Peter because his full attention was placed on whatever that raptor-human thing was behind the door.  When he heard that man, Peter accidentally released his grip from the door handle, redirecting his attention to the newcomer.  In the process of releasing the handle, Peter stumbled backwards, falling to the ground of the hallway, just like someone playing ‘Tug of War’ when the other side releases their grip, causing the first person to fall down due to his momentum.

Now that Peter was no longer forcing the door shut, the raptor-creature swung up the door.  However, even in its current state of mind, it was obvious that this thing was startled when it saw that there were two intruders, not just one, standing in the hallway.  Trading glances with both of the men standing in the hallway, the human-raptor decided to pounce on Peter, since he was the most vulnerable in his position.

When the creature had launched itself into the air, intending to drive its foot sickle into Peter, his chosen target, even in spite of the creature’s swiftness and speed, Peter’s spider-sense gave him a fighting chance, allowing him to roll to the side, which caused the creature to miss its mark.

“This is why nobody wanted a <span class=""bb-i"">Jurassic Park</span> movie that included human-dinosaur hybrids!”  Peter thought to himself as he pulled himself back onto his feet.  “Whose bright idea was it to take that idea from the silver screen and make it a reality?”

Peter aimed his wrist toward the raptor-creature and compressed the trigger to his web shooter.  However, once the trigger was pushed down, nothing happened.  “What?  They were working just a few minutes ago!  I thought I worked out all the kinks and bugs in them before I left?”  Peter ponded to himself, seeing his target flinch for a moment when it saw him gesturing toward it.

“To answer your question, mister.”  Peter took a step back when he saw the creature slowly creep forward, its eyes set on him.  His heart started racing within him.  This thing was nothing like anything that he had faced before.  Why the heck did he have to confront it on his first day back on the job?  “I have no clue what the hell it is, but I’m pretty sure it’s not friendly.”</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Time Index</span> 1010 hrs March 4th 2012

Masters took the soft, red apple in his hand and bit a large chunk from the side of the oversized fruit. All around him, other agents and personnel scurried about the mess hall, meeting friends and work colleagues for their quick lunch breaks. Tony sat alone as usual. He figured most of his fellow agents had gotten sick of having to introduce themselves for the 1st time every time they met. Tony didn’t blame them. He knew how frustrating it was to have to basically relearn most of his work schedule, the layout of the hellicarrier and even the Heads of the Departments. 

His wrist buzzed. The tiny screen clamped to his arm lit up and displayed a small message. 
(Please make your way to Director Fury’s office ASAP. Please follow the map and audio instructions through the earpiece.)

A small bud appeared at the top of the wrist screen. Tony gripped it between his middle and forefinger and slipped it into his ear.

“Agent Masters, please make your way to Director Fury’ office. Follow the audio directions as given.”

The feminine, monotone voice began relaying instructions to him, directing him to exit the mess hall and proceed along the path she laid out. Finishing off his hasty lunch, Masters rose from his seat and made his way out of the mess. 

As Tony made his way down the halls of the floating sky fortress, he found himself idly toying with his organo-drive’s wrist display. The little device wrapped around his arm (and the one jammed in his brain) had become his lifeline. It stored all his own personal information, information about the hierarchy of SHIELD, all his fighting techniques and empty space for mission details. Problem was that the drives memory was extremely limited so Tony was forced to forgo certain memories. Names and places he’d visited on missions, large chunks of his own past and even the names of fellow agents and partners. That’s when the photo and the name popped back into his head. Jubilee. He’d have to look her up after the briefing.

Masters followed the audio directions to Fury’s office, stepping toward the steel doors as they pulled apart automatically and Masters stepping inside the room. The Directors office on Helicarrier 2 was small, dark and bare except for the desk, the contents upon it and 2 chairs. Behind said desk stood the Director himself, his back to the door, a black leather trench coat reaching the floor, the collar turned up, brushing the underside of his rough blackened hair, tinges of grey filtering through.

“Sit down, Agent Masters.”

Fury’s gravelly voice rasped from the shadows, bringing a disconnected image of another dark room, shadows and…restraints. Masters shook the image from his head and settled into his seat. As he did, three 6 inch holograms of costumed individuals appeared on Fury’s desk, each costume more extravagant than the last.

“Do you know these men, Tony?”

Masters stared at the slowly rotating images, taking in the details. One was dressed in a black jumpsuit with a mangled US flag on the chest and a single star on the mask covering his face. In his right hand was a large shield, with red, white and black stripes circling to the centre. The second was a smaller man, black skin, clothed in white pants, a blue tactical jacket and a red mask covering his eyes and part of his face. He also had a shield in his hand, this one, however, was triangular in shape, looking almost like a badge. The final looked very different to the others. He was covered entirely in a black tactical jumpsuit, a ski mask style covering his face. On the chest was a large, red X and cross reaching both shoulders. Around his waist was an old style belt holster, with 2 weapons on either side, each holding an classic 6 shooter revolver.

“I don’t recognise them Sir. Although I expect you knew that?” 

He heard Fury chuckle and turn to face him. The large scar on the left side of his face was slightly obstructed by the patch covering that eye. The scar reached the corner of his mouth which was curled in a permanent “smirk”. Nothing on his face indicated that he was actually impressed with Masters dry humour. He raised his hand and held it over each hologram.

“John Walker. Codename: USAgent.” The man with mangled flag enlarged slightly.
“Eli Bradley. Codename: Patriot.” The smallest image grew to match USAgent.
“Joseph Chapman. Codename: Union Jack.” The red cross image grew and tipped under Fury’s hand.

Masters raised his brow, “Codenames? You mean they’re SHIELD assets?”

Fury nodded, “They’re all assets like you, Masters. Meta-humans borne from experiments in our Science Division. These three were created after your incident with the SHIELD iteration of the Super Soldier Serum. A newer, less powerful formula was developed and administered to these 3 volunteers, Patriot and USAgent are both American agents and Union Jack is a part of the British contingent S.T.R.I.K.E. They’ve been on active duty for the last year as a team to help deal with the surge of meta-human and mutant activity. The team has been codenamed the Invaders.”

Fury paused his briefing, waving his hand, making the holograms vanish. He pulled his chair back and sat heavily into it, rubbing his temple in slow, concentric circles, his one visible eye closed as he continued the brief.

“Last week, the team was debriefed in the Triskelion after a classified incident, after which they were relieved for refreshment. It was discovered some time later that they had fled the facility and taken with them several pieces of sensitive SHIELD tech and…”

Fury paused once more, opening his vivid blue eye, fixing it straight at Masters.

“…and a copy of the newest iteration of the Serum formula.”

“Wait, the <span class=""bb-i"">newest</span>? What’s new about this one?”

“This version is similar to the one that you were dosed with Masters, only with none of the harmful side effects and produces augmented strength as well. It’s administered through a patch and is temporary without constant replacement, lasting approximately 1 week. The project was designated ‘AVX’ and had Level 7 clearance only. It’s unclear as how the Invaders knew of the project or why they took it. That, however, is not your concern.”

 Masters’ wrist screen beeped and a small loading bar appeared. Masters could almost feel his head filling with the information about the three targets. Logistics, mission background history, preferred fighting styles. One bit of the dossier drew Masters attention.

“I trained Walker in his hand-to-hand? You don’t think that personal history might compromise the mission? ”

Fury waved his hand dismissively.

“Do you remember him? Recollect your time together? Personal history is irrelevant when one party doesn’t remember any of said history. In fact, it may give you a psychological edge.”

The screen indicated the finalisation of the upload, the drive synchronising the new information with his regular brain functions, allowing him to access and sort through it with ease.

“Your mission, Taskmaster?”

“Locate Patriot, Union Jack and/or USAgent, ascertain the location of the AVX patches and, if necessary, eliminate rogue agents and accomplices.”

Fury nodded solemnly, standing back up and turning his back once more on the asset known as Taskmaster.

“That’ll be all.”

Fury and the desk disappeared, just another hologram, leaving Masters in the darkened room, alone. Just another hologram. Just another ruse. Just another illusion. Masters began to wonder what in SHIELD was even real anymore. He got up and began to leave. What did it matter, he’d probably forget by the end of the day.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Inhumanus Historia</span>
 [1900 - 2100 (Human Designation)]</span>
Extract 417

<span class=""bb-i"">Octo Mensis, 2006 (Human Designation). Six hundred Kree militia units land three miles south of the Great Refuge's borders, by the Atlantic Ocean. Met by King Agon, Queen Rynda, Prince Maximus, nineteen of the Royal Guard - including Lords Karnak, Gorgon, Triton, Ladies Medusa and Crystal, and three thousand seven hundred and two Inhumans. Heavy casualties on both sides: Three hundred and fifty-four Inhumans killed, thirty-nine Inhumans critically injured, including King Agon and Queen Rynda, nine hundred and seventy-five Inhumans moderately to minimally injured.</span></div>

Karnak thought of the tumultuous events in the history of Attilan and it's inhabitants. Just seven years prior, there had been great proceedings regarding the creation of the Inhumans. Though most of the facts were still largely shrouded in mystery, the population had learnt that it was an ancient and powerful alien race named the Kree that had created the Inhumans, supplying them with everything related to Terrigenesis, and likely the unheard of materials and technology needed to distinguish the advanced race from their primal counterparts, the humans. It was not known if the Inhumans were human before the Kree's coming, or if they were a different species entirely. Karnak supposed that was for King Maximus and the current regent board to know, if indeed they knew at all. Being a member of the Royal Family did not mean that Karnak was consulted in the matters of provenance, nor the secrets the rulers were rumoured to hold. Perhaps it was Karnak's antisocial tendencies that left him in the dark on some secrets. He was well known for his intelligence, so matters should not have been kept from him because of his mental capacity. Regardless being a, however unwilling, member of the Order of Wisdom meant that important decisions the King chose not to undertake were to be made by he and his accomplices. As Maximus was away from the Refuge - an action that had shocked many traditionalists in Attilan - the matter had been brought to Mander, the leader of the Order.
As tumultuous events went, this escape by the group of Inhumans was a prominent one.

""Referred to as, respectively, Falcona, Stallior, Nebulo, Timberia, and Leonus, the rogue group have apparently adopted names related to their Inhuman skills and appearances. Falcona, she is a conduit and master of the brains of nearby birds - scientifically, most bird's beaks contain a sort of magnetic homing device. Falcona's brain emits a strong electromagnetic field inhumanly attuned to the bird's material, meaning she can draw the birds to her and command them to perform basic tasks - land, move here, attack... Stallior is a combination of a man and a horse, coincidentally the transformation occurred in the way that he closely resembles the mythological creature of the centaur in human mythos. He's fast and strong, and not to be underestimated. Leonus is similar to Stallior, in the way that his physiology has been combined with an animal, yet different - as he is still recognisable as a man, albeit with a faintly bronze skin, masses of hair, yellow eyes, sharp teeth, and so on... and his mental state has been largely reduced. His brain acts on impulses, simple commands, just like the natural lion - though Leonus has considerable improvements on the animal's abilities. Timberia has become one with the earth since Terrigenesis. She no longer lives through the normal human state, instead she survives as the common plant does - requiring photosynthesis, water, light. She travels in a fascinating way, twisting the roots and plants around her, making them share their mass with her so she can travel along it. Her appearance is similar to the middle bulk of a tree, and she has noticeable roots bulging out of her skin. Finally, the most strange of all, there's Nebulo. During Terrigenesis his physical form was, well, extinguished. He exists as an invisible, partly intangible being. But instead of not existing entirely, he operates in two dimensions, appearing as a shadow of his invisible self on walls and structures. He can interact with anything he can lay his shadow upon. Definitely the most dangerous of the group..."" The ambitious Order man, a middle class analyst named Bhurk, finally finished - trailing off awkwardly, probably entertaining fanatical thoughts of Nebulo and the rogue group.

""Thank you, Bhurk,"" Mander rose from his head seat, signalling the analyst to move away from the spotlight, ""As you can surmise, each member of the group is deadly in their own right. Together... truly a force to be reckoned with. Now, it is imperative that this event stays out of public knowledge for the immediate future. The knowledge could send future subjects of Terrigenesis askew, plus the relatives of the group could take any action under the indisputable stress this all would cause them. With the... unprecedented absence of our young ruler, it falls to us to cover all ground regarding this subject: the discretion, the handling, and the execution."" Mander eyed the men and women in the room intensely. He trusted each soul around the table, likely partly because of their subservience to him. Mander's eyes lingered less on Karnak, likely partly because of his opposite attitude to his father. Nevertheless, Karnak's skill was indisputable - he would most definitely be appointed a pivotal task in the event.
Karnak had not noticed yet, but there was another figure in the chamber - not sat at the Order table, but shuffling loudly at the far end of the room with impatience. Karnak turned to look but Mander spoke up again, confirming Karnak's growing suspicion:

""You may be thinking that who among us will be in control of actually apprehending the group - bringing them back home to the Refuge, so we can find out what went wrong during their transformation. Thus, I took the liberty of inviting our most successful candidate in strategic skirmishes to learn all the facts and begin planning. He will be in control of tracking down and saving these rogues, before they do anything catastrophic.""

""Too right."" The loud, hulking figure stepped out of the peripheral shadows, turning whatever heads were not already turned in that direction. Karnak groaned internally, as he stared at his close relative - Attilan's celebrated military expert: Gorgon.
Gorgon grinned, showing large, jagged teeth littered with bits of mangled food from his last meal - or ten meals ago.
""Let's get this party started.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Summer, 2012
Before dawn
Manhattan, New York</span></div>

The solemn sound of a garbage truck pulling away from the curb filled Matthew with a sense of nostalgia as he sat alone on a bench in a backstreet just around the corner from 50th st and 11th ave. He’d taken a cab here immediately after hanging up the phone with Torry Fevor, a former work associate and friend of Matt’s still in the force. He pulled up some reports from major case and got Matt an address he was looking for.  Karen was still asleep as he slinked out of the apartment with a wakizashi tucked into his jacket. 

Just as the truck rounded the corner, and it’s humming muffler was out of earshot, Matt stood in the lonely alley and faced the door he knew to be several yards in front of him. Rory McKinely was the man Matt was looking for, a known associate of the man who attacked Matthew and killed his aunt. This was the only lead Matt could follow and he thought it was better than staring at a cold trail. The door was a back entrance, kept open for special customers, to a dingy bar in Hells Kitchen. It was a haven for degenerates, killers, and hired criminals, and Rory was a peg which fit squarely in those slots. The bar was called the Squinty Fly.

Matthew walked through a thick cloud of what he assumed was hookah smoke. It’d become a popular addition to most bars in lieu of smoking cigarettes indoors, which was illegal in New York. Glasses chattered and Matt focused on the epicenter of the noise, allowing himself to receive clear and distinct signals. He could “see” the small crowd of drunken patrons lined up at the bar and a few people talking in booths. Matthew quickly remembered the locations of the obstacles and maneuvered around them in order to make a quick scan of the room. Most of these people were boosters, drug dealers, thieves, and white-collar criminals; Matthew knew that going into the joint. So only a few were qualified for the kind of work Rory did. He remembered seeing two men who could fit the bill. One was standing by the bar and the other was sitting at a couch. The one at the bar smelled faintly of perfume. And his voice, as he ordered a drink, had hints of a Bostanite, Rory was a pure New Yorker. When Matt sat at the couch he could smell the faint scent of ball propellant and gunpowder, the gruff chalky smell of a man who hasn’t showered in a day or so. Matt finished off the whiskey he ordered and set it on the table in front of him. 

After a few moments Rory lifted himself from the couch and walked over to the bathroom. Matthew waited for the shrill sound of the door opening and closing before he stood. Quickly, he crossed the distance between him and the bathroom and snuck in. He could hear the crashing sound of Rory urinating as he silently walked up behind him. When Matt’s shoulder met Rory’s back he pushed hard forward, pressing him against the wall. He drew his wakizashi and slid it between Rory’s arm and his torso as the thug attempted to reach for his pistol. 

“Don’t you even think about going for it. Unless you won’t miss your arm.” Matt said calmly, in a deeper voice than usual. He didn’t exactly know why that was, but he could feel the tension and the anger rising in his throat, as if his emotions were talking for him. Carefully, Matt removed the pistol as Rory stood still, placed it in the sink behind them. “Spread your legs,” Matt commanded as he began patting Rory’s jacket to check for extra weapons. He behaved as a cop would, stretching out Rory’s leg’s with his own to maintain his position. As Matt reached down to check Rory’s pants he felt Rory’s body move, he turned and tried to elbow Matt on the back. Matthew twisted his body to the left, moving away from the strike, and drew his wakizashi, tucked under his arm, with blinding speed. In only a moment Rory’s hand was in the sink with his gun, and blood spurted around the bathroom. 

Rory screamed in pain as he came to the realization of his severed self. Matt bum rushed Rory to the ground and held him down with his knees. With the wakizashi raised above his head he loomed over Rory’s bloody, writhing body. 

“If you don’t want your story to end like this, Rory, you’ll tell me about your friend. Greg Calvin. You know him, yes?” Matthew asked this calmly, taking off his jacket as he did so. “You were in the marines, right? You know how to tie a tourniquet. Use this.” He said as he ripped off the arm of his jacket. Rory fumbled with the material and sobbed as he wrapped himself up with help from Matthew. People approached the bathroom door and Matthew could hear the clicking of a pistols hammer from outside. 

With the bathroom being as small as it was Matt pulled Rory across the bloody floor and sat against the door to block it. “Now Rory, if you don’t tell me who Greg worked for I’m going to have to kill you and your friends, okay? This is it. What do you say?” Matt said these things deliberately, his blood-soaked hands holding on to Rory and his glistening sword at once; one menacing the other. A kick of the door shook Matt and Rory. 

“What’s going on in there?” A voice from outside yelled.

“Last chance, Rory” Matt said as he raised the sword to Rory’s throat. 

“The Kingpin! The Kingpin. Please, please, man.” Rory sobbed, with blood covering most of his body. Matt nodded, stood against the door and dragged Rory against it. “Don’t let me regret letting you live, or I’ll come back and take the other.” Matt said as he tossed the severed hand from the sink into Rory’s lap. He climbed out through the tiny window of the bathroom to the back alley where he started as the door was being forced open. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">***</span></div>

Matthew stopped at an open fire hydrant as he made his way downtown to wash some of the left over blood from his body. He met Karen at the office after he’d made sure he was cleaned off and collected the suit he asked her to bring. Today was Matthew’s first day as a hired lawyer from the Nelson &amp; Son’s lawfirm. With the prospect of a bright future, and vengeance, in front of him, a loyal and wonderful woman beside him, and a hot, and gruesome trail of blood behind him, Matthew was strangely at peace. He looked at the actions he’d committed stoically, as if they were done in a dream; though, Matthew considered, in many ways they had been. Was it that, or had he been reflecting on those actions <span class=""bb-i"">through</span> a dream? As if those volatile, chaotic moments of hatred and lust were the only real moments he’d ever truly experienced in his life.

As the door was more or less opened due to the surprise of his appearance, Loki took advantage of the strange hybrid's confusion and eventual decision to attack the strange man in the spider outfit to inspect the room the creature had come out of. The inspection revealed the source of the blood at least... the pile of meat that had once been a woman was quite clearly dead and her soul was now in the care of Hel or whoever her counterpart was nowadays. 

There were a great many reasons Loki hadn't gone to visit the realm of his daughter, but that was clearly neither the time nor the place to focus on the past. 

Turning his attentions towards the spider man and humanoid hybrid, Loki looked at his newly discovered blood covered foe as he considered his options. Physically attacking the thing was rather upfront and seemed to be the best course of action... But a little bit of an illusion to aid the attack wouldn't go astray... 

Thus, a loudly squealing piglet appeared on the other side of the Spider/Raptor man conflict, making a hell of a noise as it was clearly freaking out. Small, helpless and tasty... just the way all top predators like it! When the hybrid turned its head away from the young spider-themed hero and toward the shrilling piglet, its two halves were in conflict. While a velociraptor would not have know what a pig was, his human half knew the joys of pork. The memory of this savorous meal just goaded on the man's prehistoric half. Instead of making a second attack against the young man, the human-raptor leaped toward the hapless pig, hoping to dig its claws into its flesh. 

Before Loki stood a dumbfounded young man, clad in a red and blue costume. While the young man's mask concealed his facial expression, it was obvious by his body posture that he was confused at what was happening, particularly why a pig suddenly popped out of nowhere. While the dinosaur-man was being distracted by the pig-illusion, the young man took the opportunity and attempted to create some separation between himself and his former combatant.

As the claws of a predator from an era long past pieced pig flesh, instead of the shredding of skin and pained death squeals that such an even would normally warrant there was a flash of light so bright as to be blinding for a second before fading away to revel two smaller, freaked out piglets siding beside where the original one had been standing. Both pigs would turn and start running away as fast as their light hooves could carry them, squealing all the way. 

""Er...I know this is probably not a good time to chit-chat, but I'm Spider-Man, if you haven't heard the mudslinging that the editor of the Daily Bugle has been spewing for the past few years."" 

Turning to look at the admittingly straight forwardly named Spider-Man, the only response that Loki could give was ""Call me Loki. And you're right; I'm not sure how smart that thing is but we should plan something out while its playing keep away with Piglet. What can you do?"" 

""I'm Spider-Man! I can do whatever a spider can!""

Loki looked at 'Spider-Man' with an expression that was often only reserved for smart people forcefully shifting their mental gears in order to understand and communicate with people much stupider then themselves. After precious seconds had dwindled by, Loki couldn't stop himself from asking ""So... You frighten the hell out of people in general, have trouble getting out of the bathtub and have a phobia of shoes and newspapers?""

""Well,"" Spider-Man started to respond to Loki's comment about what it meant to be able to ""do whatever a spider can"", ""if you actually believe the crap that J. Jonah Jameson spews about me, which you shouldn't, by the way, then you might think I frighten people. In fact, that actually also covers the phobia of newspapers. Triple J. runs one! While I have no troubles with bathtubs, surfaces that have little friction does jell with me.""

While he was speaking, the human raptor was still occupied by the two pigs. No matter how many times the mutated man caught these ""pigs"", they kept creating two new pigs, just as the hydra of Greek Mythology regrows two heads when one head was hacked off by Herakles. Once the human raptor had ""created"" at least a dozen pigs, he finally gave up. No amount of bacon was worth this much effort. Instead, he turned his attention back toward Loki and Spider-Man. 

""I don't know if you have a plan in mind, but it looks like we won't have much time to make one."" Spider-Man poised himself, readying for whatever move the human raptor could make.

As the raptor man turned his attention back towards them, Loki rolled his shoulders a little before joining Spider-Man in a combat pose of his own. ""How about we just wail on the thing for a while? Why go with a complicated plan when a simple one works just fine?""

""Wait! You want to beat this thing to a pulp? Didn't you see that it has already eaten somebody!"" Spider-Man said with concern in his voice. While he was confident in his own powers, the last thing he wanted to become was this thing's late-night snack.

""It's kind of hard to have missed that, but I'm fairly confident we can take it. I'll keep him busy while you kick it in the back of the head."" Bravado was something that Loki had long known the existence of but had never quite understood. He could fake it like a pro through; He wasn't even sure if the humanoid creature could actually harm him despite how fearsome it was to the average human being. No point taking any unnecessary risks through and it would give him an in to a possible ally... Some days Loki wondered if he was still a bastard or if he was just good at thinking like one... Preparing himself, Loki let out a sharp whistle to draw attention to himself. ""Hey lizard, you've had the appetizer. Now it's time for the main course!""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Location</span> Forrest Hills Hospital, Queens, New York City
<span class=""bb-b"">Position</span> 1st Floor, Admissions and Reception
<span class=""bb-b"">Time</span> 1213 hrs 10th March 2012

It was mid-day in the hospital and the day staff were overwhelmed. On top of the normal hustle of visitors and in-patients, a large influx of patients from an incident in Glendale had every nurse, consultant and doctor rushing from post to post. None of the EMTs that were on site would discuss what they’d seen but the rumours had started and they were saying that it was a mutant. An exploding mutant. Linda Carter shook her head. Whatever next?


“Excuse me, nurse? Could you point me somewhere?”

Looking up, eyes bleary from her 18 straight hours, Linda saw a tall, dark brown haired man, rimmed glasses adorning his hazelnut eyes, a white coat wrapped around his impressive frame and stethoscope draped around his neck. In his hand, he held a patients chart. He was smiling down at Linda. She smiled politely back.

“I’m sorry, doctor, I’m kinda swamped here, isn’t there anyone else you…?”

The doctor raised his hand, “It’ll only take a moment, please? I’m looking for a…” He consulted his chart, “…a Mr Isaiah Bradley?”

 Linda sighed, turning to the computer and tapped away at the keys, bring up the patients’ medical files.

“It says here Mr Bradley is in Room 11 on the 2nd Floor in Patient Care. But he’s being treated for Alzheimer’s, shouldn’t you…?”

She turned back to find the doctor gone. She scowled and returned to shifting through the A&amp;E admissions. New doctors always underestimated nurses, especially the ones laied over from the night shift.


Isaiah Bradley was propped up in his bed, the private room darkened except for the blueish glow of the cheap TV stuffed in the corner of the room, left on some generic local news channel. The pretty, young reporter was mouthing soundlessly towards Isaiah, a pillar of smoke rising behind her. Her location was Glendale.

The door of his room opened and a large man in a doctor’s coat entered, reaching up to pull off his rimmed glasses, tossing them on the small roller table over Isaiah’s bed. Masters pulled the low chair across towards his bed, settling in softly and smiling at the now frail old man. 

“Hello Isaiah, how are you?”

Isaiah’s head turned to face the soft voice, his eyes glazed over, looking right through Tony. Masters knew about Isaiah’s history, a young black soldier who was a patient to experiments of rehashes of the Super Soldier Serum, just after the murder of Dr Joseph Reinstein. He was one of the few survivors and currently the only surviving member of his platoon. It was his experiments that lead SHIELD to Masters’ current state.

“Isaiah, have you seen Eli lately? Do you know where he is?” Isaiah was Eli’s grandfather and his sole guardian. He was responsible for Eli getting accepted into SHIELD and, in turn, when Isaiah began to deteriorate, Eli set him up in the Forrest Hills. When Masters mentioned Eli, his eye’s sharpened slightly, staring right into Master’s eyes.

“Eli, is he alright? Is it the Red Skull? I knew it! I knew he shouldn’t go alone!”

Isaiah tried to get out of the bed, reaching towards Masters hurriedly. Tony gripped his shoulders gently but tightly and laid the feeble, old man back in his bed.

“It’s not the Skull Isaiah, we just can’t find Eli. Do you know where he’d be?”

The old soldier’s eyes glazed over again.

“Oh Eli… He’s such a good boy. Always loved coming with me to the lake…”

Masters sighed, settling back into the chair, rubbing his face. The 3 rogues had a week’s head start on him and, from SHIELD’s psychoanalysis records; Patriot was the weak link in the group. He was the one of the public face “heroes” of SHIELD; he was the more morally centred type, he would be the easiest to crack to find the other two, assuming they had done the smart thing and separated. He was also the green-horn of the group, with USAgent and Union both being black op veterans, meaning Patriot would be the simplest to track down. So far, however, the youth was proving extremely difficult to locate. Masters had thought Isaiah might provide some insight. It seems he was mistaken. As he got up to leave, he absent-mindedly listened to Isaiah’s muddled ramblings.

“The long summers we spent there, in the cabin, just sitting on the lakeside, fishing for hours. Eli loved that cabin…”

Masters paused, his hand on the knob as he had a crazy thought. Maybe this trip wasn’t an entire waste. He turned back to Isaiah, a friendly smile on his face to keep Isaiah calm. 

“Isaiah, tell me more about the lake….”</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">The Royal Chambers are seen in shades like never seen before. 
Fear, and shame, and nervousness are burning in her core. 
She wants to stop but the boy persists, and so they run more, 
And ever more.</span></span></div>

Blue, green and gold lights blurred together in Medusa’s mind as she raced behind the boy in the white harness, his strong hand guiding her. She’d gotten to know the layout of the Royal chambers through the lights alone, the differing hues and variations in the shapes. But all of that seemed to blend in the blistering pace. 

Blackagar wasn’t entirely sure where he was going, he’d never seen the outside of his quarters with sentient eyes. But he understood Inhuman architecture better than many, having studied the topic intently. He could see the curves leading to exits, the angles leading toward new rooms, and the hallways which bent into the foyer. When Blackagar exited into the throne room, Medusa sheepishly following behind, he was struck by the majesty of the design. The stories etched into the moldings, along with the mosaics which so eloquently detailed the legends Blackagar could only imagine, left the newly freed young man with an unquietable sense of awe. He sunk with the weight of the ages pressed atop him. He let go of Medusa’s hand and solemnly pressed up the steps toward his rightful throne. Blackagar caressed the arm of his father’s chair, and he could smell his brother’s perfume on it. He wrinkled his nose and looked over at Medusa, her amber hair swirling under the blue light refracting from the glass dome above. 

“We shouldn’t be here!” Medusa whispered cautiously. “High Lord Maximus could be back any moment.”

Blackagar’s features shifted suddenly from disgusted to offended, a brutish snarl crossing his face, a puff of air released from his nostrils as a silent scoff. He grasped the arm and the back of his father’s heavy throne and lifted it above the ground, slamming it back down again. Dust and ancient debris spread out from the epicenter of the action. Medusa could read the words on his lips: <span class=""bb-i"">”This is mine”</span>. Blackagar’s features softened, and he extended his hand. Medusa hesitated for a while, but Blackagar remained. She climbed the steps to meet him with an equal measure of excitement and embarrassment. When she reached him Blackagar stared into her emerald eyes for a long while, as if searching for something. When he seemed to have found it, he glanced over to his side, assigning her to do the same. There, on the grand wall beside them, was a giant picture of Maximus. Medusa looked at it as if for the first time, seeing the absurdity of it. Blackagar looked back at his cousin and she looked back at him: <span class=""bb-i"">“I must stop him”</span> his eyes said in clear tones. Medusa could practically hear Blackagar’s voice, and then, she felt like she was.

“Dear Brother,” came a dark voice from above, “I’m afraid you may be lost.” Maximus descended to the center of the throne room in a bubble elevator, made even more elegant by the telescopic copper pipes which lowered it. When the elevator reached the bottom Maximus unlatched the gate and came forth, clad in black silks. 

Blackagar pushed Medusa to the side and stepped in front of the throne. His own furious fist came to his chest and, in one motion, ripped the harness from his body. The brilliant white lightning strike design of his suit was a familiar, yet stark contrast against Maximus. With a certain level of reverence and hesitation, Blackagar reached behind him and pulled the built-in cowl over his head. The antennae attached to the forehead of the suit lit up and sparked with energy. The silent Inhuman hunched over and collected energy, watching his smiling sibling carefully. 

Blackagar stood between his brother and the Royal Inhuman cathedra, and at that moment became the first living defender of Atillan society against the tyrannical rule of a madman; indeed, only the first of many.</div>"

These two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stood out like a sore thumb amongst the group of the other agents, since they wore colorful costumes instead of the standard gray and black shades that the other agents usually wore.  Hawkeye’s attire event stood out even more than Mockingbird’s because his costume was almost entirely purple, while the later at least had dark blue accenting the white portion of her outfit.  “Hey, it helps prevent friendly-fire!”  Hawkeye would usually say in his defense of their fashion decisions.  But in spite of the flamboyance of their apparel, Clint and Bobbi still got the job done.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, another agent walked into the briefing room, holding several folders that he intended to issue out to the others once he had entered.  Once the files and folders were passed around, the man clicked a button on a small remote that he held in his hand, causing the screen behind himself to activate.   “Here is your next assignment, ladies and gentlemen.”  Agent Coulson announced to his fellow agents with a confident, but calm voice.  “This is David Cannon.  While we do not yet know whether the X-Gene granted him powers or if he used some other means, Mr. Cannon is capable of creating a localized tornado around himself.  Local authorities have been unable to stop him, so it is up to us to apprehend him.  Are there any questions before we set out?”<br/><br/>	“I have one.”  Hawkeye yelled out, grinning at what he intended to say, “Are we about ready to go on a man hunt after the Tasmanian Devil?”<br/><br/>	“Any other questions?”  Rolling his eyes, Coulson obviously ignored Hawkeye’s remark about how the powers of this supervillain mirrored the abilities of the Warner Bros. cartoon character.  “If not, everyone is dismissed.”</div>"

The cheers of glee overpowered them at times as the anger boiled over from the torment and anguish. Deadpool leaned forward, relishing the torture of the victims as they screamed in agony. Deadpool grinned from ear to ear. <br/><br/>“Told you he wasn’t the Daddy! Jerry, Jerry, Jerry!”<br/><br/>Deadpool laid back, panning out on the couch, in nothing but his underwear, hip holster and mask, which was pulled up above his mouth so he could stuff another handful of cheeseballs into it, the orange dust covering the edges of his lips and the tips of his fingers. Some leftover orange crumbs covered the scarred chest of the Merc as the next set of guests on the daytime TV show stepped up.<br/><br/>*You claim to be the world’s best mercenary, yet here you are, watching daytime trash TV while we have a high paying job sitting in front of us, literally!*<br/><br/>A small stack of files sat on the coffee table, a couple of photos sticking out of the cardboard covers that showed people, places and strange looking equipment. The thickest lay at the bottom, several papers rifled through from being shifted through several times.<br/><br/>“Also one of the most dangerous, I mean S.H.I.E.L.D.? I need to focus, collect my thoughts….”<br/><br/>The self-argument came to an end as the apartment loft’s door opened wide and a figure stepped through into the loft. Years of paranoia and training snapped into place as Deadpool drew his S&amp;W from the holster at his hip, the barrel snapping to the target and the finger hovering over the trigger. The laser-point on the barrel’s end hovering over the entrant’s eye….or at least where the eye should be. The left patch covered the left eye area, the young girl stepped in to see the weapon pointed in her direction, only to sigh.<br/><br/>“D, didn’t I say that I would be back soon? I just went to get groceries.” She shifted her arms, the brown paper bags ruffling in her arms.<br/><br/>Deadpool shrugged, “One has to always be careful when you’re as dangerous as me, Al.” It would have sounded more impressive if his mouth was not spluttering chewed orange cheeseballs all over his semi-naked body as the handgun is slid back into its holster.<br/><br/>Al shook her head and marched into the kitchen area of the loft. Alexander Althea had known Deadpool for the past several months and had gotten used to some of his stranger quirks, she had to, considering he was giving her room and board in exchange for her services. Nothing sexual, Al would never sink that low, but Deadpool never seemed to show that kind of interest so she was content with the affiliation so far. <br/><br/>Al met Deadpool in a homeless shelter after the Merc had come recruiting, looking for his “Alfred” as he put it. None met Deadpool’s odd standards until Alexander stepped up. Wade told her if she could break down and reassemble the .45 ACP pistol, he’d take her in for free, chores included. Not only did she do just that, she did it in a very respectable time, under 5 minutes. This intrigued Deadpool and he took the young 20 year old into his loft apartment, informing her of her duties. She also didn’t ask why Deadpool wore his costume and he didn’t ask about her missing left eye.  <br/><br/>It was then she began noticing Wade’s stranger quirks, such as taking to calling her “Blind Al”, despite the fact she had full vision in her right eye. When she finally asked him why, he merely shrugged and stated that “you remind me of someone I used to know.” Deadpool refused to comment further and, once when she’d pissed him off about it, he locked her in a room he called the “Box”, a room filled with sharp objects. She was thoroughly confused now, seeing as the room was lit and she could clearly see all of the obstacles.<br/><br/>Al sat the bags on the counter top and opened one of the overhead cabinets. A bunch of soft bags fell on Al’s head as she groaned, turning one of the bright bags over to read the front of the bag.<br/><br/>“Captian Carl’s CheesyBalls? How many did you buy, D?”  <br/><br/>She answered her own question when she opened the other cabinets, finding more bags stuffed inside. She pressed her fingers into her eyes, calling out to Deadpool.<br/><br/>“D, I thought we discussed this. You bring in the money, I do the shopping and we don’t ask questions about what the other does.”<br/><br/>“But they were on sale! And we’ll be bringing in some big bucks soon.”<br/><br/>“What, the S.H.I.E.L.D. job?” Al bit her lip as she spoke too soon, realizing her slip.<br/><br/>“You’ve been reading my files again, Al? Didn’t we discuss that as well?”<br/><br/>“It was just sitting there wide open, you were out….. So it looks like this X guy you keep talking about has you doing some major jobs. It would be smart to do some of the other jobs first. Especially that Bloom Industries one……” She poked the conversation forward, hopping D would forget her infraction if he concentrated on the job.<br/><br/>Deadpool nodded in silent agreement. He’d been looking over the equipment that X wanted him to steal and he’s figured that taking some of the smaller companies would do first before going up against S.H.I.E.L.D. The Bloom job looked the most promising, with the development of some new teleport tech that was still in the trial stages, giving the user only short range capabilities, but, with the layout to the Helicarrier in his possession from the mysterious voice on the other end of the phone, it would mean that none of the locked doors would be a problem. Deadpool stood up, the crumbs falling from his scarred chest as he struck a valiant pose for his one audience member. <br/><br/>“Time to go to work! Now, Al, fetch me my pants!”</div>"

However, Peter heard something behind him.  Turning his head just enough to see what made that noise with his peripherals, Peter saw that a small child stood behind them, several feet away, standing before the stairs that undoubtedly went to his bedroom.  When Peter turned his attention back to the man-raptor, he saw that it had diverted its attention from himself and Loki toward the little boy.  It began to dash forward, intending to run past the two super-humans and pounce right on top of the child.<br/><br/>	The child just stood there in fear, his planted in the floor.  However, eerily enough, this was not the only reason why the child stood his ground.  It almost seemed as if the young child recognized the man-raptor, almost as if he knew it.  But as the human-raptor charged toward the child (although it had not passed either Peter or Loki just yet), the little boy released a piercing screech.<br/><br/>	""NO DADDY, NO!""<br/><br/>	What the child just said unnerved Peter.  Was that <span class=""bb-i"">creature</span> really that boy's father?  Does that mean that that <span class=""bb-i"">creature</span> had just consumed his own wife?  Peter began to feel sick to his stomach just by thinking about these thoughts.<br/><br/>	Peter thrust out his arm, compressing the trigger on his palm with his two middle fingers.  Fortunately for him, Peter's web-shooters did not jam up on his this time, although the web fluid did not come out as uniformly as usual,  Nevertheless, the webbing struck the human-raptor in the side of the leg, causing it to slow down a little.  However, even with this hindrance, it still tried to make its way to the little child.<br/><br/>	It was unclear if the Raptor man had been so dedicated to ripping into the young, defenseless child that he was blind to everything else around him or if there were other factors in play; Either way, the Raptor wouldn't see the blow to the side of its head from the man that called himself 'Loki' until it was far to late too stop it. While the exchange was little more then a hit and withdraw attack, Peter had fought enough ordinary people (mostly thugs and criminals) and superhumans in the past to tell when the person throwing the punch had more then a few pumping iron sessions at the gym behind their blows.<br/><br/>	Well, on the plus side the human-raptor would have less teeth to worry about.<br/><br/>	Once the human-raptor had recovered from Loki's blow, he redirected his attention towards the green-clad man who had just attacked him.  However, when he tried to pounce on the man called 'Loki', aiming his sharp claws for Loki's flesh, Peter anticipated the hybrid's actions, latching onto the man's tail.  When hew as airborne, Peter yanked back on the tail, causing the human-raptor hybrid to crash into the wall beside him.  While this did prevent Loki from being harmed, unfortunately Peter's action also made the hybrid to focus his attention on Peter.<br/><br/>	The human-raptor launched a fury attack against Peter, throwing its claws against him.  However, used his agility and nimbleness to duck and dodge his foe's attacks.  Once he saw an opening in the human-raptor's defenses, Peter triggered his webshooters and covered the hybrid's face with webs.  While the human-raptor was incapacitated by the webbing that covered his face, Peter thought it was time for the two of them to regroup.<br/><br/>	""It probably is a good idea to get that kid as far away from his 'father' as soon as possible.""<br/><br/>	As the human-raptor struggled with removing the webbing from its face, Peter would see Loki rush up to the struggling abomination wrap his arm around its neck in a headlock before planting a foot in the back of one of its knees before putting enough weight on the joint to prevent the beast from having secure footing. ""Sounds like a plan Spider Man. Take the kid and get him out of here!""<br/><br/>	""Don't have to tell me twice!""  Peter leaped over to the child, scooped him up into his arms, and swung out of the house.  Outside, a squad car had just pulled up to the house.  Seeing the police, Peter placed the kid on the ground allowing him to run over to the safety of the police.  However, when he turned to return back into the house, he heard one of the police officers shout at him.<br/><br/>	""FREEZE!  DON'T MOVE!""<br/><br/>	""Okay.""  Peter rolled his eyes under his mask.  Even though the tone of his voice might have revealed it, the lenses on his mask concealed his facial expression, which probably would have irritated the officer even more.  ""I'll just stay out here while you two handle the dinosaur superhuman that is inside that house.""  After a few moments, the officer lowered his weapon, signaling that Peter was free to go.  Once Peter had swung back into the residential building, one of the officers rushed back to the squad car and radio'd a message back to the Dispatch.<br/><br/>	""Dispatch, we have a code SH3.

The pious priest knew of the disunity between Karnak and Gorgon, and perhaps he had forced them together to cause distress within his argumentative son, but nevertheless he knew that the two young Inhumans before him were the leading minds and bodies in their fields within the Great Refuge. Facing the society changing events involving the rogue group of Inhumans and the unknown dealings of King Maximus, the Order of Wisdom would need to employ the greatest assets they had. Mander held Karnak's disapproving gaze for a few more moments, and then proceeded out of the archway.<br/>When the old man was out of earshot, Gorgon smirked at the accurate combatant.<br/>""Guess I'll be heading up this one, cousin. In our amusing battle of power versus skill, seems I take this round thanks to your 'pa.""<br/>Karnak narrowed his eyes sharply at the hair-covered brute. <br/>""You are <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> my cousin. And the second you intend on giving me orders, you will find yourself without the deadliest force in Attilan to aid in this manhunt."" <br/>Refusing to take part in the aggravating conversation any longer, Karnak swung his robe around in a flurry and headed towards the archway.<br/>""We might as well be related. After all, is Maximus' blood not shared between both of us?""<br/>""Curse your faltering intelligence, Gorgon."" Karnak muttered under his breath as he rounded the corner before the glimmering steps.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/W7Gzyjm.png""/></div><br/><br/>Falcona stepped softly along the greying pavement, neon lights reverberating through her mind and the overpowering bustle of the street and it's inhabitants shocking her at every interval. She wore clothes to blend in with the humans - a white dress with a large red rose residing in the middle and two black boots that climbed up to her thighs. These had been taken from a decimated target of Leonus. She clutched a large pink purse that was littered with prominent sparkles, the withering hand that held it not long before now lying dead on their refuge's floor - Leonus' doing. It contained some of the strange material that the humans lived by - money. It ostensibly ruled over them as a God, and yet they manipulated it constantly, with images of their rulers and each piece being passed around from one to another all the time. They used it as a trading device, which suggests it as a beneficiary, yet it seemed that they could not live without it. Falcona didn't understand this, but from the moderate education she had endured she had learned of the humans and the differences in their physiology and mentality to the superior Inhumans. It was indeed obvious of the Inhuman's superiority in both of these factors and many more. However, Falcona was inexplicably intrigued by the humans and their society. Despite their many mistakes, many of which continued to the present, the society they had formed was impressive to her, and she wished to study them personally and in-depth. That was one of the reasons she had left Attilan... <br/>She stopped suddenly on the pavement, causing rushing men and woman to respond in shock and frustration and skirt around her. She ignored them, and looked out towards the west. She was filled with sadness and some regret, for her friends and family in the Refuge, those she had left behind. Still, the reasons for her and the other's departure were more important. <span class=""bb-i"">One motivation to share</span>, she thought, <span class=""bb-i"">and personal ones for each of us</span>.<br/>Falcona shook herself out of her pondering state and focused on the task at hand. The others had outright laughed at her plan, especially Leonus and Timberia. Stallior, the one whom she shared the most ideals with, also disagreed - saying it was too dangerous. Nebulo had no response, as usual, though she wasn't sure if he was actually in the room at the time or not.<br/>Falcona spotted what she was looking for and strode towards it, her brain activity rising. With this, a group of pigeons that sat on the first floor balcony of a hotel erratically surged out of their resting positions and barrelled toward the market store. Falcona noticed their behaviour and calmed herself expertly. She then turned to the avians and reverted them back to their normal state. They hung in the air for a second and then flew away from her as quickly as they had approached. <span class=""bb-i"">Keep yourself under control</span>, she lectured to herself. One human who was not too busy to notice anything around them was eyeing her intently. Falcona sensed the curiosity in his aura, likely due to the display she had foolishly allowed to happen, though there was something else in his eyes... something she did not recognise. He was sat slumped against an old brick wall, a brown rectangle of material to his left and an empty container to his right. People seemed to keep their distance to him intentionally.<br/>He awkwardly climbed to his feet, a strange hunger in his eyes. Falcona turned away, partly confused, and entered the store.</div>"

Countless people wondered to and fro from these economical institutions, just as ant do with their colonies.  Some are depositing cash, while others were withdrawing funds.  Some are making investments for his or her own future, while others were taking out loans.  However, there was one person who had something else on his mind when he entered into that bank.  While he did want to withdraw money from the bank, he did not intend to do so in the conventional way.<br/><br/>	When that man made his entrance, most of the bystanders thought that they just heard a train crashing right into the bank.  However, it was not a train, but a man who could create miniature tornadoes by just spinning his body.  Once the rapid winds dissipated, encaptivating everyone in the room, the perpetrator revealed himself.  The man was garbed in a suit of green armor, with his head covered by a green dome that only had eye sockets and breathing holes.  While his appearance would normally seem comically to anyone who saw him for the first time, due to his pervious successes at other banks, his costume did not put a smirk on the faces of the bystanders.<br/><br/>	Using a localized whirlwind that was generated around his lower body, Whirlwind zoomed over to the vault and began to fill his sacks with cold hard cash.  Once he had taken everything that he could carry at once, he zoomed back out of the vault and towards the exit of the building.  No one tried to stop the criminal out of fear of the tornadic winds that he could send against anyone who dared to oppose him, or at least that what he thought.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">THUNK!</span><br/><br/>	Out of nowhere came a blunt, purple arrow that landed several feet away from Whirlwind.  The super criminal almost laughed out loud when he saw the archaic weapon that someone had foolishly (as he thought) used against him.  However, this was no ordinary arrow, as there was a flashing light at the tip of the arrowhead.  Before Whirlwind could even take another step (or rather move another inch), a blinding flash emanated from the arrow, momentarily stunning the criminal.<br/><br/>As soon as the arrow emitted its hidden weapon, a dozen S.H.I.E.L.D. agents rushed on the scene and started pumping rounds of ICER’s at the supervillain.  However, even as he struggled to regain his focus from the blinding burst of light, Whirlwind chuckled as the blue bullet-like objects bounce off of his costume.<br/><br/>	“Do you really think you can hurt me with those little blue BB pellets?”  Whirlwind taunted the agents as his armor protected him from their gunfire.  Once he had regained his senses, Whirlwind went into a rapid spin, causing swift winds to barrage the agents, tossing them here and there.  Using the wind power that he had just generated to smash open the front of the bank, Whirlwind burst out of the building.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, another purple arrow zoomed toward Whirlwind.  However, this time the winds that the supervillain was producing caught the arrow, forcing it to fly safely around himself and plunge into a nearby fire hydrant.  When Whirlwind looked up to see who fired that shot, he saw a man dressed in a purple (and extremely conspicuous) outfit who was wielding a bow in his hands.<br/><br/>	“Is that the best you can do?”  Whirlwind yelled out to the purple-clad archer.</div>"

The quickness of the noir-minded Maximus was just as keen as Blackagar’s reflexes. Just as the darting Bolt was set to deliver a pounding blow crimson locks were wrapped around his neck. They squeezed and jolted him back into a laying position. <br/><br/>Blackagar peered behind him, hands grasping at the follicled chokehold, and saw Medusa, eyes like saucers of light, restraining him with her powerful abilities. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Mind control.</span><br/><br/>The thought rang out in Blackagar’s mind, as clearly as his brother’s menacing laughter, which even now echoed so clearly against the throne room walls. The mad chortling mixed with the fits and groans into a macabre cacophony. <br/><br/>“He’s probably better off dead, isn’t he dear?” Maximus asked with a casual bite. <br/><br/>Medusa’s glowing orbs only stared at him, then focused back on Blackagar as she focused on tightening her hold. <br/><br/>Blackagar was slowly pulled along the slick Titanium floors. The hold contracted then constricted, flowed then pulled. It was like a tightening maze of hair, and no matter how much leeway Blackagar felt he might have, he could never find the end of it all. If he freed his hand, he was still choked and his torso was still being squeezed. Blackagar felt the life slipping from him, and he knew that he had only one choice, one chance. Just before the crimson hair swallowed him whole Blackagar focused all of his harnessed energy. <br/><br/>“Wait…” Maximus began, extending his hand. Before he could say more, an invisible force broke through the mound of hair, shocking Medusa’s entire system and forcing her into a seizure. The force continued, however, outward and struck Maximus with equal, yet physical force. His body flung against the ceiling and got caught on a rafter. Blood seeped from a cut on his head down onto the royal chamber floor. Blackagar was then able to free himself from the now limp strands of hair. He turned in time to see the closing stages of Medusa’s minor seizure. She seemed fine, but the conceivable damage to her brain was invisible. When Blackagar looked toward where he imagined Maximus to be, he witnessed his semi unconscious brother floating to the floor safely. Some sort of antigravity device more than likely. <br/><br/>Blackagar trotted up to his brother and grabbed him by the collar of his ripped silk blouse. He inspected the nasty wound on Maximus’ head, then brought his brother up to eye level. Maximus could still see the look on his kin’s face clearly through the haze of his concussion. A pang of horror shook through his entire body as he received the words through Blackagar’s talkative eyes. <br/><br/>“You’re better off dead, aren’t you dear?”<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">-</div><br/><br/>Gorgon's footsteps carried weight, in both a physical and a psychological way. As a known and respected figure of the Inhuman hierarchy, he could go where he wished and do what he liked. His Terrigen influenced ability also affected his feet, or rather - his hooves. The otherwordly mists had twisted his once human feet into large goat-like hooves that spewed out dark fur from the ankle up and were coated in a sleek black substance from the ankle down. They were also capable of producing kinetic shockwaves - seismic occurrences of ample destruction that would knock most anyone of their feet, and depending on Gorgon's anger to fuel it - could destroy structures of any size. Thus Gorgon remembered to tread lightly, and monitor his temperament in combat situations.<br/><br/>He was striding down a regally decorated corridor, adjacent to the royal throne room in which King Maximus held his seat, when a desperate mental outcry burrowed through the wall to surround him completely. He sensed invisible tendrils, ever changing and morphing, twisting through each other to effectively form an enmeshed net of strong mental commands. Gorgon stumbled back in shock, momentarily forgetting his anger inhibitions. The paintings on the wall thrashed about after suffering Gorgon's kinetic vibrations. The large Inhuman could not escape from the all encompassing tendrils, and despite the headpiece he constantly wore that had the ability to fend off telepathic attacks, this particular assault was overpowering from it's urgent strike and power to back it.<br/><br/>Gorgon sprawled out on the floor, yet fought vigorously until the tendrils took him.<br/>Instantly a frantic command reverberated through his helpless mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">To the throne room! Attack Black Bolt! Defend your King!</span><br/><br/>Gorgon stood with lightning speed, and began running toward the archway a little further down the corridor.<br/>The paintings fell and shattered as he ran.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">-</div><br/><br/>Blackagar glanced at the doorway across the expanse of the throne room, and a hulking shadow flickered on the wall as the thundering foot steps got closer and closer. Suddenly the space in and between the archway was filled with steel, and cloth, and fur and flesh. It took Blackagar a moment to understand what he was looking at. The proportions were all wrong for a normal man. Within that confusion Blackagar lost his hold on Maximus, who jumped out of the way and began crawling back to the copper elevator. The mass was coming closer, but shrouded in the shadows of the ill lit room. Some pivotal electrical wiring must have been cut during Blackagar's exchange with his brother, and so the primary source of light was from the vibrant sea water above and around them. Blackagar searched his mind for the faces of the royal family. This wasn't Karnak, nor was it the aquatic Triton. Horn's glistened in the light and Blackagar could remember the lineage, finally. Son of Korath, brother of Agon, father of Blackagar. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Cousins.</span><br/><br/>Blackagar managed to hold onto a horn as he was pressed into, his legs being lifted off of the ground and his torso pounded by this young man's shoulder. Even as Blackagar went crashing through his rightful throne he tried to retrieve this cousin's name. Blocking frightful elbow shots and hammering fists Blackagar could feel the name on the tip of his tongue. <br/><br/>As the beast lifted himself, to try and release Blackagar's hold on his head, the more dexterous cousin was able to free himself from a grapple and climb over onto his back. A few strikes was all he could manage before he was thrown. <br/><br/>Blackagar had a moment to collect himself after he rolled from the toss. He noticed his gloves were ripped, and so tore them off. Maximus was inching closer to the elevator. <br/><br/>As the hoofed and horned man readied for another charge a flash of inspiration came to Blackagar. And with it a name: Gorgon. </div>"

He waited for an opportunity to arise so that he could take the superhuman robber by surprise.  While Hawkeye has much lacking in the superhuman department, he surely makes up for it in his years of training, not only as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, but also as a master bowman.  Once Whirlwind was distracted after he collected the cold hard cash that was contained within the bank vaults, Clint drew his bow, selecting a flash arrow that would momentarily render the superhuman criminal stunned and confused, hopefully giving the other agents enough time to bag and group him before Whirlwind could regain his senses and use his wind-based powers to restore his advantage.<br/><br/>	Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.  While the flash arrow did give his fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. agents some time to confront the super-powered criminal, it was definitely not enough time for them to subdue and capture the tornado-producing man.  In fact, it looked like their confrontation only irritated Whirlwind that much more.  Bursting out of the front of the bank while surrounded by gusts of wind, Whirlwind began to wreck some havoc before he attempted getting away scotch free.<br/><br/>	While it would have been a lie if Clint had said he was not worried, Hawkeye retained his composure and scrambled to find a way to put down the superhuman villain.  On his first attempt, Hawkeye pulled out a taser arrow, hoping that it would put the man down.  After he set up the arrow in his bow and fired it off towards Whilrwind.  However, due to the swirling winds that had been surrounding the supervillain, the arrow whirled around Whirlwind and (fortunately) struck a fire hydrant on the street.  How could Hawkeye hit someone if that man had a protective barrier of wind that could divert Clint’s arrows?<br/><br/>	Or did Hawkeye need to hit Whirldwind?<br/><br/>	“Strikeforce,” Hawkeye communicated with the other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents on the street level, “I would recommend everyone take cover.  Things might get messy here.”<br/><br/>	This time, Hawkeye pulled out a different arrow, nicknamed the “Sticky Bomb”.  Once Hawkeye launched this arrow at his target, even though arrow whirled around Whirlwind, just like the last arrow, the “Sticky Bomb” activated, launching a brown, sticky substance into the air.  The swirling winds caught the gummy liquid and plastered Whirlwind with it.  Once Whirlwind was incapacitated by this weapon, causing the winds to cease and the superhuman to fall down toward the ground.  Anticipating the second, Hawkeye fired off a grapple arrow, catching the man by his leg.<br/><br/>	“That could have gone worse.”  Hawkeye thought to himself.   On the street below, even though the “Sticky Bomb” had stopped Whirlwind, it had also coated the street with the sticky substance, too.  While this did irritate some of the bystanders who either got coated themselves or their cars did, at least the supervillain was stopped, right?</div>"

Oh he knew for a fact that the creature was dangerous and if it was left to its own devices a lot of people would be killed or maimed, but he couldn't help but feel that a physical battle was somewhat... beneath him. Brawn over brains had always been the domain of the other pig headed fools; He much preferred battles of wit that ended with his opponent believing they held the upper hand until the trap slammed shut on them and it was far to late to save themselves. <br/><br/>Taking a good look at the hybrid, Loki couldn't stop himself from asking ""Can you understand me at all? Is there still something that passes for thought in that reptilian brain of yours?""<br/><br/>""Oh, isn't that the question of the hour?""  A hunched-over man crawled out from the shadows.  Whether this man was wearing a full body costume or it was his actual skin, there was no doubt that lime-green hairs covered the man's entire body.  Giant, imp-like ears flanked his head, making him look like some creature from a fantasy world rather than the real world.  His large hands possessed claws, just like a wild animal.  If the man did not look so muscular or well-fed, someone could have said that he looked like a green and hairy version of Gollum from Lord of the Rings.<br/><br/>Looking toward the dead corpse, the man cracked a large grin on his face.  ""Damon, I see that you said hello to your family for me.  Where's you son?  It's not fair for the little boy if his mother was the only one who got my message""  A bizarre laugh echoed out of his mouth as he finished taunting the human-raptor, who happened to the be the scientist Damon Ryder.<br/><br/>""Now, Mr. I just came from a Renaissance faire,"" the greenish imp taunted Loki, in spite of the fact that he himself looked like a mythical creature, ""Why don't you just hand over the creature and we'll just go our separate ways?""<br/><br/>In truth, Loki had not been expecting an answer to his question. The fact that he got one at all, even if it wasn't from the source that he was expecting, did cause him to tense up a little. Keeping a damn firm grip on Damon as he looked over to the intruder of a one sided conversation. His eyebrow rose a little at the sight of the hairy 'Imp'. <br/><br/>As the man continued to speak, a very friendly grin appeared on Loki's face. And here he had been lamenting the fact that he wouldn't be able to have a battle of wits. ""You know what? Sure. I would be more then happy to hand this little beastie over. However, it would be morally wrong and possibly very foolish to hand over such a creature to someone who clearly had no visible means or training to control a dangerous creature. Perhaps you could put my mind at ease first and demonstrate that you wouldn't just be torn limb from limb.""  <br/><br/>Another burst of laughter erupted from the little furry green man's mouth when he heard Loki's offer, to show how he would restrain Damon in exchange for releasing the mutated man.<br/><br/>""Don't you know?  A magician never reveals his little secrets!  From your appearance, I can tell that you probably should know this little golden rule for all magical folk.""<br/><br/>Before the little green man could say anything else to the Asgardian, Spider-Man swung back into the hallway.  ""Hey!  You still have that thing restrained!  Gold star for you.""  Spidey thrust his thumb up into the air, signalling his approval.  However, he was surprised to see that there was another man in the room.  Someone he did not recognize.  ""Who's the little green imp?""<br/><br/>The so-called 'imp' began to clap, doing so in long intervals between each clap.  ""Everyone!""  He shouted, even though there were only two other people in the room, ""give a round of a applause to this boy!  The murderer of a bright, young girl who had her entire life ahead of her.  Bravo, dear chap, bravo!""<br/><br/>Loki shrugged a little bit as his ploy fell through. Honestly the Imp seemed to be the kind of idiot that would monologue at the slightest provoking... and would practice his speeches in the mirror before hand so he can get the presentation just right when he gave them. <br/><br/>Then Spider-Man reappeared and the monolog that he had been trying to provoke earlier finally started to present itself. If he had to guess, the 'Imp' had lost a loved one (Most likely a daughter or niece) due to a hero failing to save her in time and he had now dedicated himself to tormenting the 'hero that killed her' as a means of revenge. The raptor creature he was restraining was no doubt a means of which to do so. <br/><br/>Interesting motive, still murder. <br/><br/>""I'm going to let you finish, but considering that I'm fairly certain you've had something to do with Chuckles here- ""A quick squeeze of the raptor hybrids throat to get a reaction and remind everyone that it was still there ""I find it rather hypocritical that you're judging someone else for murder. I admit I don't know enough about the situation to judge if it was an actual murder or an accidental death, but still hypocritical. Sorry for interrupting you. I believe you were up to the self justification part of your monologue.""    <br/><br/>""Oh, do we have a Socrates in our midst?""  The little green man threw up his arms in frustration.  ""Looking for loopholes in arguments.  Oh, I'm sure you make the weaker argument better, don't you.  I see you're labeling me a hypocrite for calling this vigilante for his role in the death of an innocent girl because you think that I had set poor old Ryder on a rampage to get even with him.  But what are the odds of Spider-Man coming to this exact house in the middle of the night?  New caped crusaders are popping up all around the city.  Any one of this could have stumbled upon our dear friend Ryder.  No, if I really wanted my revenge, I would've...""  However, the green imp paused in mid-sentence, considering what he was about ready to say.<br/><br/>""But why should I spoil all the fun for him learning what I have in store for him?""  The hunched over, green man was overtaken by an uncontrollable fit of laughter as he thought of the many ways he could torment the Spider-themed superhero who stood before him.  Loki couldn't help but roll his eyes a little at the other green dressed man. ""You know what, you raise a fairly good point sir. Clearly you lack the intelligence and wit to arrange such a meeting yourself...Clearly your presence here is little more then a result of your stalking of Spider Man like an obsessed anime school girl.""   However, before the anyone had any more time to talk, a small, spherical device came flying through the window, emitting a grayish gas once it hit the floor.<br/><br/>“Well, it looks like I won’t be retrieve Doctor Ryder today after all!  Looks like I have to skedaddle now!”  On that note, the mysterious green man turned around and disappeared into the shadows of the night.<br/><br/>With the passing of each moment, more and more spheres burst into the house, filling the interior with a knockout gas.  While the gas had not yet expanded throughout the entire house, it would engulf Loki and Spider-Man if they would not do anything in a hurry.<br/><br/>“Maybe we should web this ‘guy’ down and let whoever is trying to gas us deal with it.” <br/><br/>With the last word cast from the edge of a twisted tongue, Loki watched as the green weirdo fled before turning his attention to the more pressing concern of the incoming gas and his spider themed companion. ""That sounds like an excellent idea."" Waiting until the raptor was webbed down before he let the creature go, Loki rolled his shoulders a little before walking over to his spidery chum. Placing one hand on the spider themed hero's shoulder he waved his free hand a little as a see through, yellow shield seemed to appear around them. Another hand wave and the air outside of the shield seemed to ripple strangely for a moment. "" No one can see us and I'm fairly sure that shield will blocked out that gas long enough for us to leave. Isn't it nice to be free to go for a walk without being interrupted by anyone?""<br/><br/>While Spider-Man and Loki hide under the invisible dome, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents burst into the building.  Once they were inside, they were astonished that Damon Ryder was the only person in the house (or at least that's how it seemed to them).  After these agents had secured the superhuman and searched the entire house for any other life signs (as the police report mentioned that Spider-Man was on the premise), they departed, figuring that the people who apprehended Ryder  must had fled the area sometime prior to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s arrival.  Once the S.H.I.E.L.D. force had prepped the building for the public eye and abandoned it, Loki retracted the shield that had been covering the two superhumans.<br/><br/>""Er...Thanks for the help,"" Spider-Man admitted to Loki, scratching the back of his head as he spoke.  ""Maybe we might see each other some other time, but right I really need to get home.""  Just as suddenly as he had appeared, Spider-Man leapt out the window and swung away into the darkness on his weblines.<br/><br/></div>"

Peter has always marveled at how even though when school starts up (and eventually ends), no one really notices his decreased (or increases, if school is out) activity in the crime fighting world.  If the criminals were smart, they would be active during school hours.  Heck, if they were really smart, they would not pursue a criminal career in New York City.  The superhero to ATM/bank ration is probably the highest in New York City.<br/><br/>	Peter swung around the streets of Manhattan, trying to get a few more patrols in before his summer break comes to an end.  Plus, sometimes swinging high up among the towering buildings of the Empire State.  Peter wondered about what the hunched-over green man said last night.  Whether he actually did kill Gwen.  After beginning to feel some self-guilt, Peter shook it off, convincing himself that if he had not tried to save Gwen, she would still have suffered a terrible end (maybe even a worse one than she received).<br/><br/>	This round of the city was rather uneventful.  A few small-time petty thieves whom Peter effortlessly disarmed and wrapped up so that they would be sitting there, intending that they would be there when the police arrive so that they could be arrested and taken away.  Right before he started his way back towards Queens, Peter heard an explosion and several screams.  Turning immediately around, he darted toward the origin of the disturbance.<br/><br/>	When Peter landed on the roof of a nearby car, he saw what was causing the ruckus and it was not something he ever would have expected.  Peter thought it would have been some new criminal trying to make a name for himself.  Heck, he would be less surprised by a man in a rhino suit than by what stood before him.  A human sized (or a little bit larger), bipedal Triceratops that had metallic horns stood in the middle of the street.<br/><br/>	“What in the world are you supposed to be?”  Peter was scratching his head on this one.  While the whole “human raptor” hybrid thing from last night was indeed crazy, this one might take the cake.  “A terrible rip-off of the weekly monster villain from Power Rangers?  If so, you are pulling it perfectly.”<br/><br/>	The bipedal Triceratops stared Peter down.  Its expression almost made it seem like that monster could hardly understand him.<br/><br/>	“KILLER UNICORN!”  The monster shouted, as if that was the only English it knew (or at least knew to say).<br/><br/>	“Unicorn?”  Peter was puzzled by the monster’s statement.  How could that thing be a unicorn?  “I don’t want to be the one to break this to you, but you’re not a unicorn.  You’re what we call a Triceratops.”<br/><br/>	Once Peter had pointed out the ‘mistake’ in the monster’s name, a glow began to appear on the tips of the metallic projections that were located where a normal triceratop’s horns would have been.   After a few seconds, the ‘Killer Unicorn’ thrusted its arms back horizontally, causing two energy bolts to fly toward Peter.  While the bolts actually hit the car on which he was perched, Peter used his spider-sense to leap back off the car and dodge it when it went flying backwards.<br/><br/>	“Fine, you’re a unicorn!  You didn’t have to blow up that car!”<br/></div>"

However, this one takes the cake.  A bipedal triceratops with laser horns who thought it was a unicorn.  The things that Peter saw on this “job” as Spider-Man were many things, but usually none of them were normal.<br/><br/>	In order to dodge one of this creature’s energy projectiles, Peter had to lean back as if he was doing the limbo, ducking under the blast and allowing to harmlessly pass over him.  Peter had to find a way to either get this thing away from the civilians, or at least stop him before it does any more damage than it has already done.  While most of the villains that he had faced did not understand the concept of ‘collateral damage’, as most do, but this one took it to a new level.<br/><br/>	“KILLER UNICORN!”  Another energy blast came from the monster’s metallic horns and yet again Peter managed to dodge the bolt, this time performing a front flip in the air.<br/><br/>	“Yes, we all have well established that you are in fact a unicorn, in spite of belonging to the wrong class of animal.”  Taunting his foe had become a well-engrained habit that Peter had developed over his superhero career.  Even though his insults probably would not work on this creature, Peter still utilized his mocking because it not only distract his enemies (or at least those who could comprehend his jokes), but it also helped to calm his nerves.  Going up against menaces that could permanently send you to the hospital is a nerve-racking situation.  Peter had to find a way to calm his jittery nerves and this was his medicine.<br/><br/>	The monster stomped his foot into the pavement, causing the nearby manhole cover to shake loose from the cavity that it was covering.  Peter saw his opening at this moment, dashing forward with his nimble speed and reflexes.  Latching onto the manhole cover with two weblines, Peter whirled the circular impromptu weapon above his head several times until he released the full force of the object against the “Killer Unicorn’s” side.<br/><br/>	However, when Peter catch sight of the wound that he had caused the monster with the manhole, he was dumbfounded at what he saw.  At the site of the wound Peter could clearly discern not only flesh but also some metallic components within the monster’s body.  It was almost as if it was a perfect union of a biological organism and an artificial machine.  Flesh together with metal lining and blood mingled with what seemed to be electrical circuits. <br/><br/>	“What the heck is that thing?”<br/><br/>	“KILLER UNI...,” the monster began to shout out for what seemed like to Peter the hundredth time.  Having heard this self-proclamation too many times already, Peter webbed shut the giant Triceratops’s mouth shut, preventing it from finishing it supposed name.<br/><br/>	“Well, things could be worse.  It could have been ‘Killer My Little Pony’ or something creepy like that.”  Peter thought to himself.  While the creature was tearing away at the sticking substance that sealed its mouth shut, Peter hurried to figure out what the heck he needed to do next.  While the majority of the bystanders had already evacuated the area, a few stragglers had remained behind, probably to get some pictures or video of the action.  Heck, probably some stayed for the thrill or because they are just plain stupid.  No matter why they remained, Peter knew that he needed to finish this battle soon, so that no one would get hurt and so that the property damage would escalate anymore.</div>"

Opening his eyes. Cap low over his forehead he walked off the bus into the city. He was here to try and make his way towards the Future Foundation. They'd help surely, they had to help. He couldn't do this himself, that much was obvious and the military was hunting him. No the best option was to go to Oscorp. Norman Osborne was supposedly one of the smartest guys on the planet and had the resources to back him, yes he himself was smart but his expertise were limited largely to that off radiation everything else was... well. Not really his field. <br/><br/>This was at the point where he stopped really watching where he was going, jostled a bit to the left. To the right, someone was on front of him. Then he looked up and he was in an alley. Two people followed him in and he knew immediately this was bad. Breaking off at a run, keeping his breathing controlled. He stopped as he was facing a big guy, about six foot. Towering over him. One of them drew a knife. ""Ooooh, somebody is wanting trouble."" <font color=""#007236"">""No guys, I don't want any trouble. Why don't you just let me go and nobody will have to get hurt, all right?""</font> He winced, he had said it. That was it, they'd see that as a challenge. ""Oh, nobody will get hurt huh? Why don't we just waste this one? Thinks he's so big.""<br/><br/>He screamed, part in fear part in pain as he felt the blade pierce his back. His heart rate elevated, and he fell to the ground screaming. Convulsing the thugs just looked upon him perplexed. They didn't hit him that hard did they? It was only a little blade, not meant to go very deep. That's when he looked up at one of them, his eyes turning green and his skin began to shift. ""He's one of those mutant freaks! Get him!"" <br/><br/>The kicking didn't help them, in fact it made things worse. All he could focus on, besides the pain was that he didn't want to kill these people. He couldn't lie, he didn't want to hurt them, but he didn't want them to be killed. <br/><br/>Bones snapped and moved, grinding against one another. Muscle mass grew as if out of nowhere as the thugs began to step back. The Hulk stood, the knife falling broken out of his back. He just breathed heavily, one of the thugs moved first. Pulling out a gun and shot Hulk in the back. He just turned absorbing the shot. Throwing a dustbin in their direction knocking two of them into a nearby wall, when the other three began to run he jumped, pulling himself via the building (and removing a chunk of wall) to get on front of them. There he stomped, the ground cracking enough that they fell into it...<br/><br/>-----<br/><br/>They never left Hulk alone, they always had to fight. Though he was stronger, strongest ever. Finishing with the thugs who hurt puny Banner he jumped, pulling himself up the building with his left arm tearing into the building as he did so. However he didn't care, he could already hear the police and fire engine sirens. More people were coming for him, and once they were done the army would come for him. They would never leave him alone, they always had to try to hurt him or capture him. Find a way to change him or use him. He jumped onto the roof and let out a shout (Though to anyone nearbies ears it would sound more like a shout). Then he saw it, the tower Banner wanted to go to. OsCorp.<br/><br/>Banner wanted rid of him, though Hulk wanted rid of Banner but he realized he couldn't. The best he could do was stop Banner fromg etting rid of him, so he began jogging along the roof, jumping at the edge (only a small jump) onto the next roof, building up speed and jumping again. He was nearing the taller buildings, jumping up onto the roof however something hit him before exploding and sending him flying down the road. People tried to clear the street before he went careering into it, as he bounced he hit several cars before skidding to a top digging into the road. Standing up he looked down to see them. Army men, wearing the same patch as the ones who always chased him. Who worked for the nice ladies dad. They followed him, they hadn't stopped hunting him at all. They were still after him. He screamed (Roared) down the road at them, grabbing a nearby car (Recently vacated) and threw it down the road at the men, who dove out the way (Though one was hit by it). Turning he began running in the opposite direction.<br/><br/>Why would they not leave him <span class=""bb-b"">ALONE</span>?<br/><br/>The Helicopters would be coming soon, the vehicles. The chase was never ending, he had to find a way to get away. Though where could he go? He didn't exactly blend into New York. What way was the water? He couldn't remember. Banner had come via... some other way. He didn't use the water, didn't trust Hulk on boats. Though water would save Hulk now, he could get away. Hide. Then when they were gone he could get further away, always further. Until he was alone.<br/><br/>He let out a slight smirk, as he jumped up into the air. Yes, alone. Without even Puny Banner.</div>"

The government of Sokovia, headed by the President, was an oppressive force to say the least. Everyone who still lived in the small Eastern European country, namely those who did not have enough money to leave or knew no other lifestyle than primary services such as farming and mining, were all worked to shit. The government put it across as 'taking maximum advantage of the available resources', but anyone would think they were hoarding provisions for a period of war. The only people who <span class=""bb-i"">knew</span> they were preparing for conflict was the government themselves and the evasive syndicate known as the Shadow Conquerors.<br/><br/>The Shadow Conquerors had been founded a couple of decades ago, by a man surnamed Lehnsherr, and under a different alias, during a period of absolute despotism of the Sokovian government. They had been small at first, only taking action to diminish the government's power where they could, and they were not perceived as a critical threat to the rule of the country for decades.<br/>However, as the syndicate grew and attracted angry Sokovians fed up with their lack of freedom under the government, the aim of taking over the country became more realistic. It was then that the government began to respond to various skirmishes with their own strike teams, prompting the start of decades-long fights between the government and the Shadow Conquerors. Other groups, also noticing the Conqueror's rise in prominence, regarded themselves as better rulers of the country - and they entered the secret war, until Sokovia became a free-for-all battleground between gangs and organisations. None of the other ambitious groups ever managed to match the power of the Shadow Conquerors or the government, though, and they always remained the duopoly of the combat. At least, this is what Killgrave knew of the organisation he was a part of.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">This</span></font> life was all Zebediah Killgrave could remember, sabotaging external supply shipments to the government and occasionally sending a bullet careening at a government official. He had seen friends killed in the midst of gunfights, and he had seen accomplices executed by higher powers in the Shadow Conquerors for failing various tasks. Zebediah had taken note of the punishments in store very early into his syndicate induction, and he had yet to fail in a mission provided to him. The other factor of Zebediah's head still being attached to his neck was his obedience. While he had oft thought of challenging a superior or murdering those that irked him, he was intelligent enough to understand that displaying these thoughts outside of his mind would lead to his death. He also knew that eventually he would find power in the Conquerors or elsewhere, and when he was in a position of safety to do so - he would enact the situations he had thought of previously.<br/><br/>Until then, though, he was content to do as the syndicate asked, and their aims of taking down the government was not far away from Zebediah's own motivations. The government had forced his mother to degrade herself entertaining the scum of Sokovia, in dirty back alley bars and brothels. Her speciality was dancing, but that didn't stop her from occasionally being carted off to a candle-lit bedroom with a man who payed enough. Zebediah had not known his mother for much of his life, but if he were associated to her now then he would absolutely find it unacceptable for a woman of her age to partake in those endeavours. He went along with the syndicate to force the government's members into positions of embarrassment and submission, before killing them. After that, he did not know how far apart his own ambitions and the syndicate's would lie.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">It</span></font> was an important night, in which Killgrave was to assume the position of a new guard in a government facility. The Conqueror's inside man had uncovered information about a shipment of potentially catastrophic weapons, from machine guns to shrapnel grenades, along with an experimental nerve gas that the government had apparently payed a hefty amount for. The gas's container was the target of the mission, Killgrave was to secure access to it and the weapons and install timed explosives to ensure the government could never use any of the new weapons against the Conquerors. It would surely weaken them and their wealth, and Killgrave had been trusted with the task. He had hand grenades and a pistol as backup equipment if anything were to go awry, but Zebediah was confident he could complete the mission without problems.<br/><br/>He was to meet the inside man in an alley near the facility's back entrance. He quickly approached the meeting point, keeping close to the wall where the shadows were greatest. Any position this close to the facility, especially since they now possessed the shipment, was shoot-on-sight territory.<br/>""Killgrave, here."" Whispered Melvin Potter harshly, the inside man in the government. He was large and had been a thug, but he possessed an aura of intelligence and responsibility at the same time. He was a perfect man for security in the government, and they had not done ample background research years before to discover Potter was an agent of the Shadow Conquerors. He had been nicknamed 'Gladiator' a time ago, for the frequent occasions when he would take on multiple thugs in fist-fights or bar brawls. Behind him lay a blue-eyed freshman in the government, the new guard which Zebediah was to assume the position of. A bloody cut ran from one end of his throat to the other, a look of shock and fear etched into the lines of his face. Potter glanced at the man with Zebediah, and he chuckled. ""One less government bastard.""<br/>Killgrave ignored him as the two began stripping the facility uniform from the deceased guard.<br/>""I hope you're ready for this, Killgrave,"" Potter muttered as they unbuttoned the jacket of the corpse, ""Tonight could change everything.""<br/> </div>"

However, because of the ruckus that her drunk father was making a few rooms over, there was almost zero risk of her being caught by anyone because the click of her closing window would have been drowned in the shouts of her father.  Mr. Danvers was not inherently a terrible father, but one who had been plagued by bad luck.  Losing his son, coupled with his job, which was a major source of income for the Danvers household, would have caused anyone to spiral out of control.<br/><br/>	Once outside, Carol turned away from the house and rushed out into the darkness.  Before mass consumption of electricity and artificial light, darkness ruled the night.  Mankind was not terrified at the existence of monsters, but rather by its curiosity and imagination.  Monsters did not lurk in the night, but what if they did?  However, once artificial lighting became universality consumed by humanity, the fear of the unknown dissipated.  Unfortunately, the artificial light causes an effect that makes the stars in the night sky seem dimmer.  Even going out into a dark field will not be enough if there is a neighboring city polluting the sky with light.<br/><br/>	Even though the amount of artificial light did not make that night perfect for star gazing, Carol picked out the Andromeda constellation from the various stars twinkling in the night sky.  While she could barely pick it out, Carol could discern a dim light, which was actually the Andromeda galaxy, located right next to the “knee cap” of the Andromeda constellation.  While it is not the closest neighbor to the Milky Way (the Magellanic Clouds and a few other smaller galaxies are closer), it is one of the largest neighbors to our own galaxy.<br/><br/>	Suddenly Carol was blinded by a blaring light.  Has her father already found her?  However, Carol deduced that it could not be her father because of the direction from which the light was originating.  Instead of coming horizontally, somehow the beam of light was coming from above.  Carol reached down to touch her hand on the ground, but she was bewildered to discover that her hand did not feel anything solid underneath her.  In fact, when she looked down at the ground, she had already risen up several feet off the ground.  Panicking, Carol flailed in vain as she tried to get back to the ground.  Whoever (or whatever) was abducting her must have decided that the commotion that this Earthling was making was putting them in a vulnerable position to be discovered, forcing them to activate some kind of device that knocked Carol out cold.  For the rest of the way up to the alien space-craft, Carol did not make another sound, nor did her limbs stir.</div>"

The ones who were sneakier than the people that worked for the nice ladies dad. They were worse, they made him madder. They hurt him more, so he hurt <span class=""bb-i"">them</span> more. He jumped up into the air again, making sure to stay near the buildings. They wouldn't try and hurt him, he could get away from them. That's when he noticed the problem, they saw where he was going. He could see the edge of the water front and they were waiting for him. He landed a street away, and let out a roar at them. People were already running away. He took a step, then another. Starting to break into a run, if he jumped he would just be shot back. Breaking into a run towards them shots began to rattle of his skin, obviously the streets were clear. The occasional one would begin to pierce his thick skin however few of them did. <br/><br/>When he ran out, right on front of them he could see the ships in the water and let out another roar. They just wouldn't let him go, why did they have to chase him? What did they want? Then he snapped, his rage increasing to a whole new level with some form of sonic beam struck him from the sides wedging him in the middle. The pain and sound was intense, he fell to his knees covering his airs screaming. His rage just getting greater and greater the longer he was trapped. Moving his hand down to the ground he hit the ground then picked up a clump of pavement before throwing it at one of the vehicles, letting him free enough to pick up a nearby lamp post and send it sailing towards the other.

Most of the other races that he recalled from the old days had tended to lean one way or the other and stayed that way, but humans stood out because they seemed able to jump from one state to the other like the drop of a hat. <br/><br/>Of course, there was a downside to this. Sometimes humans just went plain crazy... This was even more of a problem when the person who had gone stark raving mad was in a position of power in charge of a lot of trained solders with fairly dangerous weaponry... it tended not to end well.<br/><br/>This was the only conclusion that Loki could came to as he watched the green hulking humanoid 'beast' below from his unseen perch on one of the buildings near the docks; Whomever was in charge of those solders down their was stark raving mad and needed to be removed from a position of power before he got even more people killed. Loki had been trailing the green beast for a little while now, trying to work out its abilities and pick the best method of attack when it came time to finally strike and he had noticed something that had made him reconsider his decision.<br/><br/>It wasn't attacking anything, it was just trying to flee from the city. <br/><br/>Some might argue that the dead and injured solders that had already been left behind was proof otherwise but the beast only attacked to defend itself, or when escape had been cut off. Had it been left to its own devices, Loki suspected it would have just jumped into the sea and been on its merry way without a single casualty but some <span class=""bb-i"">Odin's damn fool</span> had decided to cut it off and engage it in a gods damn city!<br/><br/>Despite Odin's many, <span class=""bb-i"">many</span> flaws the old bastard wouldn't have been stupid enough to pick this as a battleground; He would have let it get clear of the city and if the beast was enough of a threat or a concern that it needed to be dealt with in one way or another he would have sent someone to hunt it down in the wilds.<br/><br/>Gears turned in Loki's head as he started to formulate a plan to end this as quickly as possible with a minimum loss of life... and if possible humiliate the fool that had brought this situation about in the process.         </div>"

From her narrow escape during Ragnarok, to her gaining the powers of Thor, to her trip to Midgard, while the odds seemed stacked against her, somehow, a little worse for wear, she managed to pull through. Midgardian society was utterly confusing, she was totally out of her depth when she first arrived, terrified of cars, absolutely incompetent in terms of technology, society was very advanced on Midgard and much of it alluded her. She'd spent some time living with an amish group and found she fit in much better there, but cut off from the rest of the world, it hampered her search, and so she left.<br/><br/>Finding a place to live in a town or city was a much more complex operation than she'd ever anticipated, for a start she had no money, no identification documents and hadn't a clue how to use a phone or computer, she'd spent quite a few weeks roughing it on the streets until she noticed a ""Norse Mythology"" exhibition advertised in a nearby museum, pursuing it as a potential lead to Thor's location, if he'd survived Ragnarok that is. The exhibition was dreadfully disappointing and she went to the curator to complain about how dreadfully inaccurate it was, amused, the curator decided to help her out, in exchange for information about Asgard. It seemed a fair trade, the curator had Tarene's inexhaustive knowledge of Asgard and it's legends in exchange for the curators aid in Tarene's search. The curator, Dwight Parkins, wasn't a technical genius by any means, but he could use a computer, drive and had a cell phone, to Tarene he was nothing short of a technical wizard. Though Dwight couldn't dig up much about Thor's whereabouts he did help Tarene create a new identity and land a job she could handle in the human world, plus, he'd become a good friend. <br/><br/>This morning Tarene, using the alias Tara Olsen, was getting coffee with Dwight who was working on a new paper regarding Norse warfare and the Legendary battles between Vanir and Æsir. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Morning Dwight"" </span>Tara beamed, stepping inside the pokey old-fashion cafe, even though she was growing used to the technology all over Midgard, she liked to escape it sometimes, and the cafe ""The Book Nook"" was perfect. The furniture was ancient and the walls were lined with books, there was soft music in the background and no televisions or distracting screens, it had an homely earthy feel. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Hey Tara, I ordered the usual"" </span>Dwight replied, looking up from a stack of papers he was shuffling through, his eyes were lined with dark circles from nights of 'eff-all sleep while he researched furiously. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Great!"" </span>Tarene grinned, of all the things on Midgard, coffee was one of her favourites, it was an unusual drink with a strong bitter taste, vastly different from the subtle sweetness of mead. Lately Tarene quite enjoyed cafe-au-lait, though Dwight warned it was rich in calories, whatever the heck they were. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Any luck finding any leads on <span class=""bb-i"">you know who</span>?""</span> she asked.<br/>Dwight shook his head. <span class=""bb-b"">""Nothing new, not that you expected me to say otherwise"" </span><br/>Tarene nodded, it was unlikely answers would just fall into her lap, as much as she wished it were that way. <span class=""bb-b"">""What about that Alliance ... the one where heroes are joining together? Do you know where I can meet them? Has the google device told you anything?""</span> she asked keenly. <br/>Dwight laughed, adjusting his glasses, ""There is no google device Tara"" he attempted to correct her.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Why do you attempt to trick me with such a fickle lie? I've known Loki Laufeyson, the God of Lies and he's not fooled me with a far more crafty tale. You've told me you use google for information, and when I asked who google was you said it is a tool humans use for searching, how can google suddenly not exist?""</span> she said, frustrating herself at her own ignorance somewhat, at least Dwight was patient, he had the patience of a saint. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I don't mean- Tara, google isn't a person or a thing, it's ... It's like a book, but inside a computer, I use the computer to <span class=""bb-i"">read</span> google. Do you understand?""</span><br/>Tarene pondered for a moment, taking a sip of her cafe-au-lait but then threw her hands in the air. <span class=""bb-b"">""I simply don't understand, you must explain again when you have your computer with you. Anyway, the details matter not, have you found this hero alliance? If there is any place Thor would go ... it is there, if I can find it, I have some hope of finding him.""</span><br/>Dwight nodded in agreement, if Thor was on Midgard, thats where he'd be, or at the very least, perhaps someone would have more clues, a lead for them to follow. <span class=""bb-b"">""Well I'm working on it, I'll use <span class=""bb-i"">the google</span> this evening and see what turns up. I'd text you but you don't have a phone and goodness knows what you do if you did""</span> he said.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You're a comedian Dwight, I'll have you know I aim to learn this technology stuff soon.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Now that's something I'd like to see, it took you a week to learn to work the doorbell in your apartment.""</span> Dwight retorted.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Didn't I tell you to stop bringing that up every single time!""</span> Tarene groaned, <span class=""bb-b"">""It's not easy yknow, I'd just love to see how you'd fare in Asgard if you were suddenly transported there.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I like to think I'd do quite well actually, given that I've done so much research and you've taught me so much. I'd say I'd fit right in"" </span>he grinned.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah but you cheated. I didn't get a guidebook to Midgard-society, you did""</span> she smirked. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I guess you could say that. What will you do if this hero group doesn't turn up any leads?"" </span>Dwight asked, it was something she had'nt considered.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I hadn't thought that far ahead"" </span>Tarene sighed. She was a lot like Thor herself, the original that is, she didn't plan miles ahead, unlike Loki, though she was trying to, instead of blindly tearing through Midgard looking for clues, she'd found herself and ally and was doing a systematic search, she liked to think that was a good example of strategic planning, something Thor probably wouldn't have come up with. She sighed, feeling a little defeated again, sometimes those kinds of feelings crept up on her. <br/>Here she was, sitting in an old Midgardian cafe drinking coffee and wearing regular Midgardian clothing. Her outfit today was a simple pair of jeans which hugged her lean atheltic figure (then again she had a hard time finding clothes that fit her properly given her height and muscle mass), she wore a plain slogan t-shirt that Dwight had gotten her, he found it incredibly amusing, it said something about ""Hipsters"" whatever that was, it was a joke she didn't seem to get. She gathered Hipsters were similar to the Amish family she'd lived with, Dwight toldher they don't use technology and dress differently to other Midgard-folks. She had a shoulder bag, left under her chair so no one tripped over it, and inside it was Mjølnir, Thor's legendary hammer. SHe wondered what would happen to it if she found Thor ... Would he take it back? She didn't exactly want to part with it herself, but it was his hammer was it not? Perhaps they would battle for it, though she hated to fight with her old ally and great friend, he was a worthy opponent and sparring with him seemed like an incredibly exciting activity. She didn't linger on that thought too long, afterall, she had to find Thor first before that became an issue and right now she didn't even have a good lead to go on.  <br/><br/></div>"

The first issue was that she had been right in thinking that this New York was significantly lacking in its Korean Barbeque delicacies. She had already been here a good couple of hours and her eyes had yet to fall upon an acceptable eating establishment! To make matters worse, the young Latina had received the most judgmental and confused looks when she had enquired about the location of New York’s Koreatown that in the end she had just given up with her search. Honestly she wasn’t that bothered, although considering she had been out cracking skulls for most of the night before jumping over to this dimension, her stomach was starting to rumble. Especially given that it had been midway through the morning when she had arrived.<br/><br/>Her arrival. Now that was another issue entirely! America Chavez had expected to arrive in the midst of a huge interdimensional Mutant Growth Hormone operation although all she was met with during her arrival was a seemingly abandoned warehouse located near the docks. No guards. No drugs. Nothing. Honestly if anything that concerned her. Not only was this <span class=""bb-i"">chico</span> able to hop across the multiverse, but they were certainly good at clearing their tracks. They were definitely here though. She’d be able to tell instantly if they had darted off again. That left America with a dilemma. What now? Surely it would be wise to go for help. Maybe even find the Avengers if this world had such a thing. Or differently, she could simply hit the streets and hope that the drug trade was also taking place here. Find the user. Find the dealer. Find the supplier. How hard could that be?<br/><br/>“Er... Miss?” A gruff voice caught America’s attention. “I… er.. I know y’ didn’t take the elevator but y’ still need t’ buy a ticket to be up ‘ere!”<br/>Lowering the hot dog she had been eating from her mouth, America eyes fell upon an extremely large middle aged security guard. Stifling a laugh, she rose from where she had been sat; the corner of the Empire State Building’s observation deck. She often found herself perched on the top of one of the many Empire State Buildings back on Earth-212, with her even owning an apartment at the top of one neither Liberty Mountain. She had flown up here at the earliest opportunity to relax, with the place reminding her of her home. Well, one of her homes.<br/><br/>“Sorry Chico. I’ll be on my way then.” Giving the man a short salute, she dived into the air off the side of the building and plummeted. After relishing the rush of air for several seconds, America took off, souring forward through the air. <br/><br/>That was when America was hit by a flying green monster. <br/><br/>It was like being hit by a wall of bricks. Under the force of the humungous beast, the teenager was sent flying into the ground, her body tearing up a small section of the road. Her ears ringing from the collision, America winced and groaned in pain as she lifted herself up out of the ground. Sure she was durable, but that still hurt like a bitch! <br/><br/>She strained her eyes as she took in the sights around her. Everywhere she looked, civilians were screaming and panicking. Sirens filled the air, as well as the hum of helicopters and screeching of rubber on concrete. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios!</span> How had she missed this. She watched as several military grade vehicles charged along the street past her, heading in the opposite direction as the evacuating people. Heading towards the abomination that had hit her. Abomination was entirely the wrong word. America’s jaw dropped as she realized what that creature was. The Hulk. <br/><br/>Despite the fact that she preferred to stay away from the big players wherever she visited, America Chavez knew exactly who this bozo was. People who said she had anger issues had definitely never met this guy. The Hulk was stronger. Stronger than strong even. Normally he was out fighting the good fight, a fact America Chavez was very fortunate of, although now that didn’t seem the case. The being that lay before her, reaping havoc to New York City, was certainly not here to smash any bad guys. He was out of control.<br/><br/>Grimacing, America stepped forward and brushed the remainder of the debris from her denim jacket. Old big, mean and green may be considerably strong, but she had to at least try to help. Charging forward, she once more took to the sky and shot towards the green beast. Verging towards the sidewalk, her hands clasped around the top of a street light and with a short tug, she had pulled it free from the ground. Slowing down she steadied herself behind the beast.<br/><br/>“Oi, Hulkling!” She called, swinging the street lamp towards the Hulk as if it were a baseball bat. “Lighten up!”</div>"

Several plans were considered but cast aside due to... well, the fact that he was trying not to be a complete and utter bastard and maiming and killing a lot of people tended to be the signs of a complete and utter asshole. <br/><br/>A stray thought occurred to him. At first it merely seemed far to simplistic to be considered a proper plan but as he explored it a little and tested it for faults even Loki himself was surprised at just how effective it would be. Sometimes the simplest plans really were the best...<br/><br/>Which made the arrival of the teenage girl with the lamppost all the more annoying. She seemed to be wearing some sort of tacky American flag jacket as well, which only caused Loki to face palm harder then he would have otherwise. Whenever there was a molehill to turn into a mountain by facing it head on, the American flag seemed to be present more and more these days. Still, this merely added another factor into the situation that made the first draft of Plan A unuseable. Not impossible but more work was going to be required... and the first thing to do was stop the rain of bullets that the military was sharing with the world. At least that would be easy enough to deal with...<br/><br/>Hopping off of the building he had been perched on and gliding down so that he was between the military personal and the super powered melee brawl, Loki took a moment to look at the varied forces that had been deployed before waving his hand and using magic to make his will manifest. <br/><br/>The bullets stopped flying. The horsemen of chaos and confusion would ride through the ranks of the military personal as it quickly became clear that <span class=""bb-i"">NO ONE HAD ANY BULLETS ANYMORE</span>. The bullets that had been in their guns had vanished, their extras clips of ammunition had disappeared as well and even the grenades were gone. The vehicles had likewise suffered the strange disappearance of their ammunition and missiles... Hopefully, without the ability to use their weapons common sense would drive the humans to withdraw instead of trying to join the melee. It would only end in their deaths.<br/><br/>This only left the idiot child and the beast to deal with. Turning to look at the battle, Loki waited for his moment to move in.     </div>"

I'll not waste your time further, hand 'em over""</span> she said, cracking her knuckles. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Ugh must you do that Tara? That noise gives me the creeps""</span> Dwight shuddered, sliding the neatly organised papers over the table, she just grinned and took up the stack of papers, her eyes scanning the words. <br/>She nodded as she read through the first number of paragraphs. Given the size of his research, Dwight had prepared a summarised version for Tarene to read before submitting the full version to his peers for review, they'd have all the time in the world to read his works, he knew Tarene had a very important goal and that she was helping him with his papers simply out of the kindness in her heart so he decided to avoid eating too heavily into her time whenever he could. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Quite a good account I must say""</span> Tarene nodded, Dwight's papers read much like the stories she'd been told growing up about the Vanir Æsir war which took place long before she was born. <span class=""bb-b"">""You left out the part where All Father Odin beheads Mimir and preserves his head with herbs though. You should put it in your next study.""</span><br/>Dwight exhaled, greatly relieved his research had paid off, and that the Asgardian Goddess sitting across from him was satisfied, after all, he was writing about her people, her old legends, he'd have been mortified to have mixed something up dreadfully and have it read by a woman who was nothing short of a creature from legend. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Thats a relief, at least I won't go hungry for another few months with the research funding I need locked in now! Thanks Tara""</span> Dwight grinned. <br/><br/>Tarene enjoyed his company, she enjoyed humans in general, but many didn't have the same patience and interest in accompanying her like Dwight did. She'd found some men were utterly rude to her, and a lot of women were intimidated by her height and physique. Dwight wasn't phased by her presence at all, at least he wasn't anymore, at the start he was utterly in awe, then again he was in the presence of a Goddess, though over time he relaxed somewhat as Tarene seemed rather ordinary in some ways. Then again, she was trying to keep a low profile. <br/><br/>Suddenly chaos erupted outside. Bricks and mortar crumbled from the front of the cafe and a woman appeard to fall from one of the upper floors. Tarene shot up, grabbing her bag on the way, Mjølnir swinging from her shoulder inside the bag. To her surprise, the woman who'd fallen from above got up and proceeded to tear a street lamp from the sidewalk and brandish it like a club. Tarene instantly concluded that this woman was certainly not human, or at the very least, she was no normal human. She decided it wasn't worth asking if she were injured, not that she had time, as the Hulk caught her attention next. She quickly pieced it together, the woman had been thrown into the building by the large green monster. <br/><br/>She tugged Mjølnir from her bag and tossed the bag aside, although she was dressed in typical civilian attire, she felt ever so slightly more Asgardian, brandishing Thors hammer again for the first time in what felt like eons. She wished she had her old faithful armour on, but she'd simply have to do without it in this case. <br/></div>"

Picking himself up he barely noticed that the others had stopped shooting at him. He looked at the girl and let loose a roar, turning to the left he grabbed the back of a car and threw it towards the girl. Before jumping and following through with a punch. Why wouldn’t they leave him alone?!<br/><br/>	Flying car? Easy. America bounded upwards as the vehicle rushed towards her before dropping downwards in a sudden burst of speed, kicking it violently. Her strength instantly grounded the car part, with the newly formed pile of scrap plummeting downwards. She gave a short smile at her handiwork, although the sight of an incoming green fist wiped it from her face as quickly as it had form. <br/><br/>	Luckily she had managed to get her hands up in time or honestly her face would have probably resembled a pile of jell-o for the rest of her life. Saying the punch had hurt was an understatement with America having to hold in her screams of pain as she rocketed back towards the ground. As she struggled to pull herself out of the second Chavez-sized hole she had made today, a thought cross her mind. Well more of a memory than a thought. The green giant over here had anger issues and bad ones at that! <br/><br/>	He wasn’t the only one though. <br/><br/>	“Stand down, Hulk!” she screamed, wiping her forehead of some sweat.<br/><br/>	Hulk turned to face her again, and he was ready to jump when she stood up, and without hesitation… shouted at him. Just shouted at him. He stopped in his tracks, almost in a double take. He obviously wasn’t entirely sure how to react to the shouting, though then it just angered him more. After all whoever she was she had hit him first, she had been the one to stop him getting away. If it wasn’t for her, he’d be away already.<br/><br/>    It was during this double take that the rational part of his brain kicked in a bit more, shaking his head he realized that he still had to get away. He looked over to see the military pulling back, a strange man in green walking amongst them. He doubted this new girl would let him get away though. She would chase him, and hit him. He growled slightly before raising his arms in the air, for a moment it looked like he may say something.<br/> <br/>    However he slammed both his arms into the ground, shaking the street as cracks spread out towards where she was standing, the intention for it to knock her down or cause her to fall into the cracks, not that he was really thinking on that level.<br/><br/>    Regardless it worked. America found herself once again thrown onto the floor, with her barely managing to remain stable on the now collapsing road. Reacting quickly, she kicked off from the ground and found air once more, hovering above the street. <br/><br/>    “Fine Chico.” She grimaced as she clenched her fists. “Now it’s personal.”<br/><br/>    The young girl shot forward, her arms directed in front of her. Moving like a bullet, she rocketed towards the Hulk, gaining momentum quickly until…<br/><br/>	Slam.<br/><br/>    The girl got up again, flying (Literally) straight at him. However he braced himself for the impact, one leg forward one back. She slammed into him, he slid back slightly one of his heels digging into the pavement slightly however it probably didn’t have the desired effect. He grabbed her around the waist, then threw her up into the sky roaring/Screaming as he did so.<br/><br/>	Tarene lifted Mjølnir up in the air and it sparked with lightning, electric energy building up, she felt it course through her, the ends of her hair fanning out with static, her eyes briefly flashed a blinding silvery-blue shade, the pupils and whites of her eyes disappearing for a moment in the bright silvery glow and then she swung the hammer to face the Hulk, holding it steady in her grasp, the lightning shooting out towards the beast, she let out a shriek, like rolling thunder. She'd charged up enough electricity to stun the Hulk, but it was unlikely to be fatal or even leave any significant damage given the size of the beast, after all, shooting him with a fatal charge was dangerous to the civilians nearby, should they get caught in the blast. She hoped she'd charged up just enough to get the Hulks attention, or stagger him somewhat at the very least maybe she'd caught his attention enough to stop him tearing up the city. <br/><br/>	Dwight stared at the spectacle, dumbfounded, jammed in the doorway of the cafe with other humans who were half cowering, half pushing forward to see what was happening. He'd never seen a real Asgardian warrior in action, even though she had no armour, it was an impressive sight. He was too dumbstruck to call out for her, to warn her to step away and not take on the monster, she'd been a relatively normal woman in all the time he'd known her, it was easy to forget that she possessed the power of Thor and was not a normal human.<br/><br/>    The blue light came out of nowhere, originally Hulk recoiled against it. However then, despite being supercharged with his skin and healing factor it was no different than a static shock. Turning to face the cafe he let out another roar. Where were all these people coming from? What did they want? He picked up part of the wrecked car, and swinging around in a clockwise turn he cast it towards the woman with the hammer.<br/><br/>    As the car went soaring towards her, and the café behind her he began breaking into a run after the car, against the beam of electricity screaming/roaring as he did so. <br/><br/>	Tarene braced herself, legs bent at the knees, she swung Mjolnir, aiming for the car, she needed to get it out of the way before it crashed into the cafe and harmed someone. Dwight saw his life flash before his eyes, and maybe fainted just a little, but with one mean swing, Tarene bounced the car out of the way, it crashed among the mounting pile of rubble from Hulk’s rampage. She knew she needed  to get the green beast away from here, there were too many people, it was too dangerous. Her mind raced, then it occurred to her, one way to move the beast, throw him. <br/><br/>	“Hey! You big green vegetable monster thing!!! FETCH!” she yelled, chucking Mjolnir towards the Hulk. Clearly her taunts could use some work, human language had some great insults, she just hadn’t learned many yet.<br/>Mid jump she threw her hammer at him, while shouting something that didn’t really make sense. Moving his arm to grab it, instead of it changing direction and going with him he changed direction and went with it. He went careering down the street, bouncing off the ground and leaving Hulk sized dents in the road. When the hammer landed he tried lifting it, but he couldn’t.<br/><br/>    Why couldn’t he lift it? He grabbed it with both arms pulling as hard as he could, the ground beneath him beginning to crack. He let out a roar down the street as he got even madder before he instead just grabbed a chunk of pavement and hurled it toward the women who threw it.<br/><br/>    She smirked as the Hulk tried, and failed, to make the hammer budge even a fraction of an inch. She let him struggle with it for a few moments, at least while he was occupied with that, he wasn’t tearing the city upTarene’s eyes widened at the monster suddenly chucking the freaking ground at her. “Oh Gods” she gasped, ducking down as the pavement and dirt flew over her head, narrowly missing her.<br/><br/>	“Peak-a-boo!”<br/><br/>    Having taken the last minute to recover from her last confrontation with the beast, America subsequently hovered above the conflict as she returned to the street, her eyes widening at the sight of the new player in the game. America eyed the hammer wielding woman up and down as she attempted to fend off against the Hulk’s attack. The woman was adamant, America had to give her that. Attractive too. That was when her eyes focused on the hammer she was holding. The markings. Was that… Mjolnir? <br/><br/>	A smile crept across America’s face. Thor was a woman! Nice. <br/><br/>	Moving quickly, she dropped down onto the beast’s back, wrapping her legs around his overly large body. Before “Big Mean and Green” had any time to react she spread her arms wide before slamming them together. Right into the Hulk’s ears. <br/><br/></div>"

But she was not the only...complication that needed to be addressed. <br/><br/>	Mjolnir was here. He would recognize that cursed thing anywhere; His pride had been the motivation for its creation, his concern for its perfection the reason that he had sabotaged it to only be a one handed handed hammer instead of the two handed weapon it was designed to be… His shock as Thor deemed the flawed weapon to be greater than his wife’s beauty and his humiliation as his mouth was sewn shut by its creator to the laughter of his peers... <br/><br/>	To see it again after all this time filled him with nothing but dread. Looking towards its wielder with full expectations of seeing it in the hands of Thor, Loki found himself surprised to see that the legendary hammer was clearly in the possession of a new owner. A female owner at that.<br/><br/>	As the battle continued to rage, Loki did nothing. His mind was still trying to process what he was seeing and possibly what it meant for him and the world around him. The woman herself seemed… familiar in a way, but if she was it was a truly old memory… from a time that he would rather remain largely forgotten. Still, considering that she jumped right into the fight without a second thought about what she was fighting or why, it was clear that she shared Thor’s basic line of thinking. <br/><br/>	“Okay…” He muttered softly to himself aloud, “Time to think of a Plan B…”  <br/><br/>	There was a ringing in Hulks ears as the woman on his back struck them, he shouted out his entire body shaking in rage, his muscles tightened and his eyes looked bloodshot. He began trying to grab the woman on his back, bucking wildly as his own hands were almost clawing at his back trying to grab her, eventually he managed to get a hold of her. <br/><br/>	Pulling her over his head and shoulders he threw her towards the other woman, the hammer one. At this point all reason was out the window. He didn’t want to get away anymore, he wanted to <span class=""bb-i"">smash</span>.<br/><br/>	As the Hulk’s muscular green hand finally wrapped around America, one word was passing through her mind. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit.</span> Honestly in all her travels and interdimensional hijinks, she had only ever heard stories of what she believed to be witnessing now. A savage Hulk.<br/><br/>	At the wave of the beast’s hands, she was sent hurdling towards Thor. She fell hard, knocking into the woman, resulting in the two stumbling into the ground. Normally such a thing would have been one of America’s all-time dreams, landing on a beautiful warming while all hot and sweaty, although now definitely wasn’t a time for that. Especially since this had been her doing. She had been a fool. Rule #1 of battling the Hulk; don’t make him angry. <br/><br/>Rising to her feet, she outstretched her hand and helped up her temporary partner. “Ok Chica.” she spoke, trying to sound confident. “We need a plan.”<br/><br/>	“Chica? What is that?” Tarene asked, then shook her head slightly, now was not the time for trivial questions. She held out her hand, a soft humming sound filled the air and mjolnir soared from its spot on the ground, back into her grasp. “The plan is to keep this beast from the city centre, there are too many civilians, we need to contain it.” <br/><br/>	She brushed some of the dirt and debris off her torn jeans and muttered something about how Asgardian armour would not be so easily ruined. “Are you ready for another round? You are uninjured?” she asked, though they were both taking a bit of a pounding, they were both in one piece, or so it seemed. <br/><br/>	“Sounds good enough to me!” America replied stepping forward, shaking her head slightly at her not understanding her Spanish. “Don’t worry about me, I’m good for a few more rounds!” Her eyes scanned the area once more, with America assessing what to do. A small idea quickly popped into her mind.<br/><br/>	“You go high and I’ll go low.” She stated firmly. “We’ll pop in and out. Then head for the water n’ hope that the shit will give chase.”<br/><br/>	One of the heavy duty APCs left behind by Ross’ men sat abandoned, a gun turret on the top now useless thanks to Lokis magics. He began hitting and tearing at it, until eventually the turret came off. He then grabbing the turret with both hands spun it around and threw it, whether he threw it intentionally at the heroes or not wasn’t really easily discernable. He had become unpredictable, acting purely on rage.<br/><br/>	As after he had finished tearing off the turret he continued to tear into the APC trying to break it apart.<br/><br/>	“Well shi…” was all Loki managed to get out as one of the turrets that he had dealt with earlier was thrown towards his head more or less by chance. More out of an inbuilt survival instinct than anything else did he duck, thankfully avoiding having his clock cleaned by the flying metal weapon. <br/><br/>	The situation had clearly changed… rage had clouded the beast’s mind and it was now lashing out at anything around it out of anger… and it seemed to be getting stronger because of it. This needed to end. Now. <br/><br/>	Deciding to just bloody ignore the two ‘heroines’ for now, Loki started his own dash towards the hulking beast. He needed to grab the bugger if what he had in mind was going to work.  <br/><br/>	Tarene seized her chance to make a dash at the Hulk, following the plan, she stayed high, using her powerful legs to push herself up, leaping over wrecked cars and piles of debris. She swung Mjolnir back, it lit up with sparks like a christmas tree only far more epic, and she screamed, readying to whack the Hulk square in the jaw. SHe hoped America, wherever she was on the ground, was keeping up and would be able to push him back as well. <br/><br/>	And keeping up she was! America darted forward, with her failing to notice the oncoming green-clad Asgardian approaching from the left. She pressed hard, attempting to slam into the beast’s knee and potentially buckle him. <br/><br/>	Without even meaning too, Hulk “Dodged” Americas blow, by moving his leg out of the way, he did this in order to stick his hand out in front of the one with the hammer. Catching her before she could do anything he saw green out of the corner of his eye and without even thinking about it he threw the hammer one at whoever was running at him.<br/><br/>	His rage now again fixated he stared down at America. He jumped at her, raising his fists to slam down upon her with all his force. Roaring all the way down…<br/><br/>	“<span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios!</span>” America, moving as quickly as your legs would take her, firmly planted her feet onto the wall she had collided with after missing her target. Kicking out, she propelled herself forward, narrowly missing the Hulk’s flying fists.<br/><br/>	Tarene hadn’t expected to get caught mid-swing, but the Hulk had snatched her up as easily as a child would snatch up a doll and before she could wriggle loose, he’d already tossed her aside. As she spiralled out of control, she dropped Mjolnir, the hammer landing with a booming sound like thunder somewhere amid the rubble. <br/><br/>	She expected to collide with debris, or a building or something, but instead, she’d crashed into Loki, finally her fall juddered to a halt as she lay sprawled across him. She groaned, pulling herself up, feeling totally dazed it took her a moment to stop seeing double. <br/><br/>	When she finally came to, she had to do a double-take just to make sure what she saw wasn’t some kind of delusion. <br/><br/>No. It wasn’t. It was real. Loki Laufeyson. <br/><br/> <span class=""bb-b"">”LOKI”</span> she screamed, her hand shooting out to summon Mjolnir, the hammer hummed and flew back to her grasp and she was blinded by rage. For a split second her heart was filled with unadulterated joy, if Loki was alive … Odinson surely must have survived Ragnarok too. Her joy was short lived however, as it was instantly consumed with her rage. “This is your doing!” she shrieked, swinging her arm back, Mjolnir lighting up again, this time she wouldn’t let herself get tossed around by the Hulk, she wouldn’t rest till she socked Loki in the face with the hammer which should have crushed him eons ago. <br/><br/>	So far, Plan B (Which was really only a continuation of Plan A to be perfectly honest) wasn’t going well. What had started off as a flying charge had instead resulted in getting hit by a flying woman wielding a hammer that he hated on such a deep level that he had found a strange zen like calm about the whole thing somewhere on the otherside. Not the greatest of starts but strangely enough not the worst either…<br/><br/>	Shaking his head a little in order to recover from the surprising blow, he managed to get a good look at the woman that was now on top of him. She was fairly attractive; Attractive in the old sense too unlike what people considered beauty to be now a days. On top of which, the feeling that he had seen and met her before became more apparent but he couldn’t remember the exact details anymore. Did she know who he was?<br/><br/>	That question was answered when she shouted his name and called forth that bloody hammer with the clear intent on using it. She knew who he was alright. As the ground started to shake from something powerful striking it and Mjolnir was on route for his head, Loki did what any self respecting shape shifter would do under the circumstances; turned into a mouse and avoided getting hit completely. <br/><br/>	Darting out from under the hammer wielding madwoman, the ‘mouse’ quickly regained a humanoid form. “I didn’t start this; The combined efforts of yourself, the idiot child and whatever fool was in charge of those soldiers earlier brought this about without anymore help!”  He doubted it would make her stop, but he prepared to dodge and made peace with himself that he had tried to be civil and diplomatic about it.<br/><br/>	Hulk landed in a small crater, which he made. Lifting his hands screaming he noticed the absence of the girl, the one who his rage was directed at. Turning he saw her nearby, obviously caught in the shockwave off his contact to the ground. He was soon distracted however, as more military choppers had obviously turned up, and with the entire street by this point being evacuated once they got within range they would have no quarrels about opening up. <br/> <br/>	He screamed again, he could see a helicopter. Not discerning that it was a media helicopter rather than a military one he jumped up in an attempt to grab it and pull it down.<br/><br/>	Rising to her feet, having previously been knocked to the ground by the shockwave that had been the result of the Hulk’s latest attempt at destruction, America glanced around, noticing the disappearance of her hammer wielding companion. That was when she spotted her. She was apparently stood half way up the street, attempting to savagely attack a green clad man. From this distance America had no idea as to who it was but obviously considering the situation she failed to see how this was necessary. <br/><br/>	“Oi, sort out your priorities!” She cried angrily towards the two. “We have a fucking Hulk to stop!”<br/><br/>	Feeling the rush of air as the Hulk bounded forwards, America watched as he launched himself into the air and towards what appeared to be an idiotic news-copter that had decided to pry on the situation. Rolling her eyes, she cracked her knuckles, before rocketing forward into the sky after him.<br/><br/>	“You expect me to believe you? The God of Lies? The Trickster? Chaos follows you in your wake Laufeyson. Is it not because of you that Asgard fell? And you expect me to believe you have come to Midgard to redeem yourself?” Tarene hissed. Years upon years of hatred were unleashed in one burst. She’d never thought about what she’d say or do if she ever found Loki alive and well, the very thought that he could possibly have survived seemed impossible. Yet here he was. Same as ever, or so she thought. Only her anger could guide her now, and it was uncontrollable and all consuming. <br/><br/>	“Your brother may have spared you time and time again, but I am no fool.” she growled. “Odin should have destroyed you as an infant, you are beyond redemption Loki Laufeyson” she seethed, her hair was crackling with static though it was unintentional, she didn’t mean to call upon her thunder magic. “You’ll not face Asgardian justice out here … but by the All Father, I’ll see to it you are punished” she snarled. In her anger, the Lady Thor had totally forgotten about the Hulk and his destructive rampage, all she saw was Loki and the years upon years of suffering he’d caused.<br/><br/>	Loki rose his hands a little in a sort of surrender, attempting to calm the situation down somewhat if only because getting hit in the face by that gods damn hammer hurt like the netherworld. “Fair point, I admit that I’ve done a lot of horrible things in my time to quite a few people that didn’t deserve it; Most of them were merely collateral to get at those who wronged me and for that I am sorry… But if you don’t mind me asking, who are you again? Your face rings a bell…”<br/><br/>	Tarene growled, too angry to fathom basic words, so she resorted to the universal language of violence. Her frustration got the better of her and she lashed out, her fist flying forward at lightning quick speed to crash into Loki’s face. She heard the young woman who was battling the Hulk yelling, but her body was paralysed with anger, all she wanted to do was pummel Loki’s face beyond recognition, Hulk be damned! <br/></div>"

Still, the fact that he had deserved the punch to some degree didn’t change the fact that it still hurt like freaking hell! <br/><br/>It was clear that the woman was not going to be listening to reason any time soon. Thankfully, the promise of pain had always been a powerful motivator for quick thinking and Loki rose his hand and seemed to explode in a blinding flash of light. When the light cleared and vision could be blinked back into existence, the Mjolnir wielding woman would see the former God of Lies fleeing away from the battle at a very fast pace. <br/><br/>An illusion as an invisible Loki turned his attention towards the battle between the Idiot Child and the Hulking beast, but given the woman’s current state of mind he was betting on her anger getting the better of her.   <br/><br/>    Hulk managed to grab onto the chopper, and it began to be pulled down when something solid collided into him. Not yet fully gripping the chopper he slid off it and fell into the top of a nearby building.  However as he neared the building he felt something collide with his chest, as he looked he could see the girl pushing down on him pushing him towards the building. <br/><br/>    With considerable force they moved through floor after floor, desks, computers, filing cabinets. Hulk was unable to grab onto her as he was using his arms to try and slow his descent. However with considerable abuse this was starting to wear at him, when they begun to near the bottom having built enough speed she stopped pushing and he went down to the bottom floor and into a crater.<br/><br/>    Fortunately America Chavez could fly considerably faster than the Hulk could jump. That was always a bonus. She hit the creature like a bullet, knocking him away from the helicopter. This needed to end. Fast. Chavez pressed forward, charging once more into the Hulk and pushing him downwards, right into an already slightly Hulk-worn office building. <br/><br/>    Debris flew around the two as she continued, with her literally using the Hulk as a battering ram, smashing through the floors and office supplies with ease. Releasing one last burst of strength, America pushed outwards sending the Hulk tumbling further through the floors, while remaining where she was hovering. <br/><br/>    “Eat shit, Chico.”<br/><br/>    The entire building creaked and groaned, when Hulk sat up his mind was slightly clearer. He grunted looking around, a small family lay on the ground beside him, shocked to see him come careering through the roof. Piece of the roof caved in, and what he did next was unexpected. He rolled himself over them, arching his back as the roof tumbled ontop of his back, looking as if it squished them all.<br/><br/>    Thor was furious, and when Loki disappeared, which, had she not been so angry would have come as no surprise, she quickly snapped back to the situation at hand. America needed her help. She’d get Loki later, but only after allowing herself some time to process everything, perhaps then she’d be better equipped to face Loki should she find him again. Blinded by anger, she’d easily have been blindsided by him. It wouldn’t do to let that happen again. Next time she found Loki she’d be prepared, and she wouldn’t go straight for the kill, as much as it pained her to think it, she’d spare him, but only for long enough to interrogate him, she’d get some answers. <br/><br/>Back to the situation at hand, Thor jumped into the destroyed building, allowing herself to land a couple of floors up, so that momentum would carry her to the crater the Hulk was currently sprawled in, at a greater speed. She twisted her wrist and Mjolnir began to spin, making a powerful whooshing noise and sparking with electricity. It would take her mere-seconds to plummet down to the bottom, and if luck were on her side, the force would be enough to KO the beast … She wasn’t entirely sure luck was on her side anymore though, not with Loki’s appearance like an ill-omen looming over her. Then the beast did something surprising, rolled over, appearing to crush a terrified family, though Thor noticed the muffled screams didn’t suddenly cut short … the beast aimed to protect them from falling debris <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> to crush them.  THe static dispelled from mjolnir harmlessly and she stayed her swinging arm. <br/><br/>Today just seemed to be full of surprises it seemed. When he had created his illusionary doppelganger Loki had fully expected the strange hammer user to have charged after it like a bull seeing red but it seemed that she processed some kind of common sense after all… admittedly this was something of an improvement over Mjolnir’s former wielder but it did leave her as a possible problem still.<br/><br/>Following her at a more subdued pace after the beast in order to avoid being detected prematurally, he arrived to hear the sound of muffled screams, collapsed rubble and a lack of both the raging beast and the two ‘heros’ doing anything about the rubble and the screaming underneath it.<br/> <br/>    It had finally sunk in what a gigantic mistake America had made bringing the fight here had been. She had assumed beforehand that anyone with common sense would have evacuated at the first sight of the Hulk. Given the screams and cries for help being emitted     from various locations around the collapsing office block, that evidently wasn’t the case. Obviously she couldn’t blame them. This was on her. This was her responsibility.<br/><br/>    Deciding that the Hulk could be left alone for a mere moment, America set to work. Gliding gracefully, she quickly maneuvered through the falling rubble, using her ears to guide her; something that was considerably hard considering everlasting sound of destruction around her. She soon came upon a middle aged woman trapped under a fallen desk somewhere on the 7th floor. Removing the desk was easy work, although removing the woman herself another matter considering her left leg was most likely broken. With the woman’s permission, America hoisted her up, before catching sight of a few more possibly injured civilians. It wasn’t long before she found herself swooping out of what remained of the south wall, a person under each arm, as well as a weedy elderly man huddling onto her back.  <br/><br/>    Luckily America didn’t have to stray far in order to find some paramedics, with a small blockade of SWAT vans and the occasional ambulance building up a block or two over. Leaving the people in safe hands, she swooped back around and headed back. By now the majority of the building was just a mound of rubble and debris. Groaning she hovered down next to Thor who was watching something miraculous. <br/><br/>Did the Hulk just… save people? America smiled. It would seem that Banner wasn’t completely out of control. She moved forward in order to assist the green giant, although she found that she wasn’t met with open arms. <br/><br/>Hulk pushed the rubble off the top of him as he stood up, shouting at the top of his lungs. He didn’t want to hurt people, he just wanted to be left alone. He wasn’t a monster. That was when the women that did this came soaring down closer to him, and he just let out a snarl in her direction. As the family had run away and the area was clear he turned ready to jump at her again. His head was still groggy however it wasn’t as bad as it had been, his healing factor was beginning to take care of it.<br/><br/>A piece of rebar in each hand from building supports he moved completely with the intention, and a very obvious intention at that, at hitting her as hard as possible with both bits of rebar. This was her fault, she was no better than the men with guns!<br/><br/>At long last, the moment had come. The opening that Loki had been waiting for but had been prevented from making earlier had finally arrived. Ignoring the Idiot Child and the Mjolnir wielder completely, Loki darted forwards and intercepted the charging beast in midair, his invisibility dropping as he gave the two idiots who had escalated this conflict to far greater heights than it had truly needed to be the one fingered salute of the folk before one final working of magic kicked in and both himself and the beast vanished from view.<br/><br/>Reacting quickly, America threw her arms up, her eyes widening at the sight of the oncoming Hulk. However what followed was something that she would never had expected. She watched in awe as a green clad man seemingly appeared out of thin air, diving towards the Hulk. She knew who it was instantly, given the snake-like colour of his outfit and the ridiculous horns of his helmet. Loki. Before she could question what was going on he… gave both her and Thor the finger and vanished, along with the indestructible Hulk himself!<br/><br/>Silence was all that came from America’s mouth as she drifted down to the floor. She smiled briefly. They had done it! The Hulk was gone. Sure Loki had him, but nethertheless he was gone! However that was when America realized something. Her smiled dropped as her eyes stared around at all the destruction that laid before them; the rubble, the fire, etc. <br/><br/>This was on her. All this destruction was because of her. America Chavez dropped to her knees, a single tear running down her face as she realized one simple truth. The Hulk hadn’t been the only monster in New York today.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">★★★★★</div><br/><br/>Before the two of them even had the chance to hit the ground, the landscape had changed dramatically. Instead of the ruined sub-urban area filled with people that they had been standing in before, now there was only dusty sands, light plant cover and a night sky that was absolutely breath taking if either of them were inclined to gaze up at it. <br/><br/>Springboarding off of the beast and some distance away in order to get out of retaliation range in case it was still enraged enough to take a swing at anything nearby, Loki took a moment to right himself as he sighed. “Sorry it took so long to get you out of there, but idiots kept crawling out of the woodwork.”   </div>"

Utilizing his amazing agility, Peter closed the gap between the two combatants and grasped the creature’s horns.  In one, fluid motion, Peter leaped over the “Triceratops” and flipped it over his own head, slamming it into the ground.  <br/><br/>	“Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!”  Peter waved his hands in the air as he tried to blow on them through his mask.<br/><br/>	However, immediately after slamming the creature to the ground, Peter began to regret it because the energy from its horns had heated those projections up, burning Peter’s hands while he was tossing the monster to the ground.  The only solace that Peter had was that his hands were not burned as badly as what would have happened if anyone else had touched them.  By tomorrow morning, they would be all healed up, as if nothing had happened to them.<br/><br/>	‘Killer Unicorn’, as it called itself, stumbled back to its feet.  Although it was obvious by its attempt to regain it balance that Peter’s latest attack was at least successful, the fact that the monster had not yielded was not the result that Peter hoped for.  What else could he do against this thing?  Beat it down to submission?  But that would probably cause more collateral damage than was worth for defeating this creature.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, Peter’s Spider-Sense began to buzz, alerting him to something approaching in his general direct.  However, Peter knew that could not be coming from the metallic cretaceous dinosaur that had resisted all his attacks.  There was a swooshing noise filling the air and then two THUNK’s sounded when two purple arrows collided with the torso of the bipedal prehistoric creature.  A third arrow struck the ground next to Peter.  However, this arrow was attached to a long coil.  Down from this coil came down two costumed character: one decked-out in purple while the other in white and navy.<br/><br/>	“Tick, Tick, Boom.”  The man in purple said.  Right after he said ‘boom’, the two arrows that were lodged into the chest of the beast imploded, creating a giant explosion that enveloped the bizarre triceratops.  After the explosion, a cloud of dust swirled around the impact site, inhibiting any attempt to see what was the result of those explosive arrows.  “Man, I always wanted to use those arrows!”<br/><br/>	“Did you just <span class=""bb-b"">BLOW UP</span> that thing?”  Peter exclaimed, placing the palms of his hands on the top of his head, showing his shock at what had just happened.  While Peter had been trying to knock the thing out, he had no intent of killing it!<br/><br/>	“No, I just put up a giant light show.”  The man rolled his eyes at Peter.  “Anyways, that thing is <span class=""bb-i"">definitely</span> not human, so what’s the problem.”<br/><br/>	Another buzz alerted Peter to yet another incoming projectile that was heading straight towards the three of them.  Instinctively, Peter dove to the side, pulling the two newcomers along with him so that they would not be struck by whatever was coming towards them.  From outside the cloud of dirt, that was at that moment starting to dissipate, two laser blasts departed.  Fortunately, Peter had already got the two costumed characters out of the way.<br/><br/>	“I think all you did was make it angrier!”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">The Brand Corporation</span></div><br/><br/>	The Brand Corporation was one of the science-focused branches of the Roxxon Corporation, which was a conglomerate business that expanded into numerous fields: energy, pharmaceuticals, you name, they probably has investments in a portion of that market.  Herbert Landon, the founder of the Brand Corporation, who was allowed to remain in a position of control once Roxxon absorbed his company, strolled through the plant that was located in Queens.  However, once he heard his pager going off, he excused himself and ducked away into his office.<br/><br/>	Once he was seated, he turned on his computer.  On the monitor was head of the Manfredi crime family, Silvio Manfredi, better known as Silvermane.  This aged crime-boss was once one of the most influential members of the Maggia.  However, due to his growing age and a past imprisonment, Silvermane’s influence has slipped significantly, especially with the rise of the Kingpin of Crime.  While Silvermane was able to regain some turf from the relatively recent criminal civil war started by the man known as the Rose, Silvermane knew that his age was becoming a detriment to his job.<br/><br/>	“Landon, what is the progress of Project Fountain of Youth?”  Silvermane had been seeking a means to rejuvenate his withering bones so that he might be able to indefinitely hold a place of influence in the Maggia.<br/><br/>	“The results are incredibly promising.”  Landon’s tone hinted at that there was going to be a ‘but’ to his good news and Silvermane picked up on that cue instantly.  The mob-boss furrowed his brow as he awaited the ‘bad news.  “While we have been able to replicate the enhanced super-human physiology and rapid healing factor, we unfortunately have run into a snag.  We have found physical deformity to be a side effect of the treatments.”<br/><br/>	Disappointment quickly overtook SIlvermane’s face.  Was he not providing him enough resources to get this breakthrough drug perfected, under the nose of the Roxxon Corporation, which was also not known for always having the most legitimate business investments.  However, Landon had one last ace up his sleeve.<br/><br/>	“We found something else during trials.  The formula that I have developed seems to be corrosive toward the so-called ‘X-gene’.  If tension rises anymore about the ‘mutant question’, we might be able to take advantage of such a situation.  We could offer it as a ‘cure’ for being a so-called ‘mutant’ and when people start to mysteriously dying, people will turn a blind eye due to the tension.<br/><br/>	A toothy smile appeared on Silvermane’s face once he heard this news.  “Keep me updated.”</div>"

Turning rapidly in mid air he fell to the ground throwing up sand, nearby some wild goats scattered from where the green goliath landed. He looked around, huffing and puffing. He screamed into the sky, which was when he noticed the stars. He didn't even register Loki or what he had seen. It was a stunning view, no light pollution anywhere nearby had the whole sky lit up with one of the most beautiful stars, the vastness of the universe was beautiful. He may be the strongest one there was, but out there there were countless other things and beings. Somewhere out there he could truly be alone, it filled Hulk with an odd sense of hope.<br/><br/>Then his breathing, began to slow from his laboured breathing to calmer, until he fell onto his hands and knees. The green hue fading, his entire body shifting back. Bones grinding and cracking as they adjusted to their original size and then in the crater kneeling, was Bruce Banner. He shuddered slightly, putting his hand to his head before standing up.<br/><br/>Well, at least wherever they were it wasn't cold. So it must be a warmer country, well to most residents it would seem cold but as he was used to the New York climate it wasn't too bad. He would have preferred to have been in more than ripped trousers however it was bearable. No houses, no lights. Nothing for miles, he was torn between glee and a slight twinge of sorrow. He was alone, nobody would be able to find him out here and he wouldn't be able to hurt anyone however... It would be tough to survive and the chances of him finding a way to cure himself out here would be tough to do. Though ther ewere always markers he could call to try and get some equipment out here... it would be a long shot but even if he couldn't he'd be out here all by himself. There was nobody to hurt, and nothing to destroy.<br/><br/>His mouth turned into a slight smile at the prospect of that, not even Ross could find him all the way out here and everyone would be far safer. Surveying his surroundeds a little more closely he noticed the man clad in green for the first time. He recoiled slightly, almost tripping over a stone in the Hulk sized crater. ""Who are you?"" He looked around even as he said this, checking that there was no-one else nearby. <br/><br/>""What do you want?"" Bruce looked around for a ready way to escape or somewhere to hide, could his peace truly be ruined already? He could feel his heart rate already elevating. However he took a deep breath, and let it out slowly through his nose. No, it'd be fine. Probably just some... kind of hunter. That was it, he'd probably be just as surprised as he was.</div>"

Somewhat pleased with his vindication, Loki was surprised by the fact that the beast shrunk down to what would otherwise be a normal human being had he not witnessed the transformation himself. Granted he had seen shape shifters before (He was one himself after all) but this kind of transformation was quite new even for Loki. He was inclined to learn more...<br/><br/>When the man finally noticed him, his reaction suggested strongly that he had no recollection of what had taken place when he was big and green; Not a voluntary shape shifter and more a cursed transformation akin to a werewolf then. Taking this new piece of information into account, Loki offered the man a friendly smile that seemed to reflect the moonlight... largely in part to the sliver lines around his mouth actually reflecting moonlight. ""My name is Loki. What I want is a couple of answers to some very interesting questions but I can't help but feel that you would rather know where you are and how you came to be here first.""<br/><br/>""See, a little while ago I was staying in New York when I came across a strange but powerful green creature that was trying to escape from the city with a minimum of fuss. Unfortunately in one of the greatest collaborated acts of stupidity I've witnessed in a long time a combination of the US Military and several 'Heroes' more dedicated to fighting the 'Rampaging Monster' then actually observing the situation and using their brains decided that a city filled with innocent people was the <span class=""bb-i"">perfect</span> place to start a fight. Due to a desire to help keep the damage to a minimum and because it was clear that the creature wasn't harming anyone that didn't attack it first, I grabbed the creature and teleported the both of us far, far away from New York and people in general. Which is where we are now.""<br/><br/>""As for where we are..."" The smile on Loki's face grew playful as he stated in a perfect Australian accent ""Welcome to the Australian Outback mate. So what's your name?""         </div>"

Wilson put the files on the desk on front of him, waiting for Fury to look them over. Fury just looked at the title of each file, the names attached to them. ""Two people isn't exactly a <span class=""bb-i"">team</span>, what about the-"" Wilson shook his head. ""He'd need to prove himself first, and the other ones too young."" Fury just sat there for a second, ""What about the one with the h-""""Again. Gotta prove herself. You've had tabs on her but we have no reali idea who she is or what she's capable off. I'm not against working with her though to see if she's material."" <br/><br/>""And the younger one? The one who fought the Hulk?"" Wilson almost laughed. ""She needs a lot of work. I'm surprised you're not bringing her in under charges. Though I do have someone else I want on my team. I want Agent Milton."" Fury just looked at him. ""Wilson you can't have Milton. We've spent time with him, he's trustworthy and yeah he's even helped us out on occasion but you can't have him.""""We need him, trial basis. He has what it takes and let's be honest he's a bit of a power house."" Fury just looked at the man on front of them, no he wasn't just a man now. He was a beacon, Wilson had become that upon getting the S.H.I.E.L.D. The New Captain America. Sure he wasn't quite as strong as the last one however the ability to fly (Assisted or not) was still a game changer and gave him one hell of a tactical advantage.<br/><br/>""All right, you can have Milton. Though all his missions are run by me. This isn't optional <span class=""bb-i"">Cap</span>"" Wilson couldn't help but grin inside. As a kid he had grown up, like everyone else knowing the legend off Captain America. To be the one chosen to take his place was probably the greatest honour, and biggest burden, he could possibly ever recieve. He was determined to right by the world, and help it become a better place. S.H.I.E.L.D was the way to do that, he had no doubt in his mind. They would protect the world, and help it grow into something new and exciting through world peace. He realized he had been pushing the line a bit, but this was too important. It had to be done right.<br/><br/>Wilson offered a salute. ""Thankyou sir."" Then going to turn and walk out the room Fury stood up. ""Not so fast Cap. I got a mission for you-"" He pressed a button on the screen behind him and pictures of the fight with the Hulk appeared. ""-Before you go looking for your team you need to suit up and bring these ones in. No they're not going onto your team but they're hot commodities right now, we have to do something. After that, you need to go see Ross."" Wilson just sighed. Of course he'd be the one to have to see Ross, Fury would just lose his temper after all. <br/><br/>Wilson began to walk out before turning back around to face Fury. ""Sir?""<br/><br/>""What is it Captain?""""About the name, I want to change it. Avengers sounds a bit too... aggressive.""""What do you want to change it too then?""<br/><br/>""I'll get back to you on that one.""

Even if Ross could somehow track him it would take him days to get to him out here. If not even longer than that. He did owe this ""Loki"" somethanks though, the <span class=""bb-i"">Hulk</span> (As he had seen it named) could have caused a lot more damage, especially if Ross and these ""Heroes"" had been making things a lot worse than it was.<br/><br/>""I guess I need to thank you for getting me away from New York, from people the heroes and especially Ross-"" He didn't elaborate more on who Ross was, even the name made his blood boil and- <span class=""bb-i"">Calming thoughts Bruce, calming thoughts</span>. He went to extend his hand, though realizing it may not be the best idea he moved it up instead on rub his head before then hugging himself. Now he was getting used to the heat it wasn't the nicest temperature ever, it was quite chilly actually. ""Bruce, the names Bruce. You should go though, just leave me here.

Blinking the stars out of her eyes, the bright flash had caught her by surprise, she looked at the crater where just moments before, the Hulk had crouched. There was a family, cowering in the wreckage. America appeared to be in shock, Thor couldn't quite tell but she was frozen on the spot, mouth agape, so Thor didn't hesitate dropping down the rest of the way into the crater to land beside the family amidst the chaos. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Are you unharmed?""</span> she asked, carefully pulling them up to their feet. She could knock out what remained of the wall and allow them to climb to the relative safety of the pavement outside, but the building was already creaking and groaning, it couldn't take much more structural damage, and there was likely to be other people nearby who could be hurt by falling debris. <br/>The humans stared up at her in terror after their ordeal, but shakily reached out to grab her arm, relief washing over their faces as she lifted them up towards what remained of a blasted out window, they clambered out to safety, having narrowly escaped death.<br/><br/>Thor pulled a fallen steel beam off a mans leg and carried him out to the window where the paramedics were beginning to swarm in, trying to find a safe access to the rubble. She quickly darted off again to catch up with America. She needed to thank the young woman for her assistance in the fight, and applaud her bravery, whomever the strange girl was, she was considerably valiant, though certainly not Asgardian, Thor felt as though she had been quite the worthy battle companion. <br/><br/>She leapt back across the wrecked building floor to where America stood, still silent. She placed a hand on America's shoulder. <span class=""bb-b"">""You fought well.""</span> she said, brushing some dust off her battered Midgardian-style jeans. Her brows furrowed in concern, something was quite amiss with the young heroine. <span class=""bb-b"">""Miss-, are you alright?""</span> she noticed America's tears ... Thor was not particularly good at dealing with tears, it was unlike her to cry and her warrior companions back in Asgard, long ago, had seldom shed tears. <span class=""bb-b"">""Do not worry, we will find them ... I swear it""</span> she said confidently.<br/><br/>Outside a new chaos seemed to be brewing, although it wasn't the chaos of a Hulk rampage, or even Loki heralding Ragnarok, it was a mechanical chaos, helicopters and squad cars. <span class=""bb-b"">""By the Gods ... what is this noise?""</span> she asked, looking around, although the battered shell of a building didn't offer much of a view of the street and skyline outside. </div>"

The influence behind the military response perhaps? Shuffling that piece of information away for further research later, Loki considered his options in the present. He doubted that he would be able to get any of the answers he wanted out of Bruce at this early juncture, but he didn't want to just abandon the man in the middle of the outback with absolutely nothing to work with...<br/><br/>""Wait here five minutes Bruce. I'll be right back..."" was all the warning that Loki gave before vanishing, teleporting from the outback and into a store hundreds of kilometers away that was tailored with campers in mind. While the place was technically closed that wasn't much of a hindrance; If anything it meant he didn't have to deal with shop attendants. It was a rather quick shopping trip since Loki had given himself a time limit and who knew if Bruce would still be there when he got back, but with all haste Loki had managed to secure himself a tent, a sleeping bag, a survival knife, two changes of clothing (M sized) and a few other bits and pieces that someone in the wilderness might make use of. All it really took was a wave of his hand to rearrange the shop's computer systems to recognize an extra purchase and compensated it for the trouble before Loki was off again.<br/><br/>The second stop was similar to the first, only it was at a supermarket. This one required a bit of invisibility due to the fact that the store was actually still open but it wasn't that hard to grab at least a few days worth of water bottles and food before another 'purchase' went through and once more he was gone. <br/><br/>The return back to where he had left Bruce was signaled by several bags dropping onto the sandy ground and Loki carefully placing a few more down as he glanced around to see if Bruce was still there. Hopefully he hadn't run off...       <br/><br/> </div>"

After all he was the one being told to lead this team, the Avengers Initiative. Earths Mightiest heroes he had been told, what heroes? So far few of them had really proved themselves, at least as far as he was concerned. In fact there were only about two people he felt he could trust to help defend the Earth. Then there were the whole international laws to adhere to and the fact the Earth wasn't exactly united...<br/><br/>Though being Captain <span class=""bb-i"">America</span> kind of made things a bit lopsided. Perhaps he'd speak to Fury about tyring to get some other countries equal representation... though that would take time and effort and he had other matters on his hands currently. Swooping down out of the back of the Quinjet, wings extended he could already see New York was in chaos, in two different areas. He knew that in one of them Spider-man was throwing down with some kind of triceratops however Hawkeye had that scene locked down, his concern was with the second site. The one that had been destroyed by the Hulk and two would be heroes. He had to hand it to the other green guy (Older S.H.I.E.L.D files claimed him to be Loki, however he wouldn't believe that) He at least knew what to do in a seemingly unwinable situation in urban terrain, get the threat away from the general population. <br/><br/>He swooped down, into a roll and as the security doors on the office building began to slam closed (Obviously something was faulty, but with what the building had been through you couldn't blame it) he threw his own shield, timing it perfectly so that the door was held open by it. Then retracting his wings back into the pack he ran over and slid onto the ground. Helping to pull people out. He could kind of see the two so called ""Heroes"" in mid air. They seemed to be watching the commotion. ""You two, get yourselves in gear. This buildings going to come down, get everybody out."" He then turned and nodded to nearby S.H.I.E.L.D agents, who ran around the building with small explosives placing them on the building itself. A free falling building was dangerous, they had to control the fall and take it down where they wanted it to go down. <br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""OOC"" type=""button"">OOC [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/spud"">@Spud</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a> this was more or less just to give you something to post.

If it was teleportation how did it work? Did he create wormholes? Manipulate gravity? Or was it some form of time dialtion that made it seem like teleportation to those outside of the field. Of course his newer, more realistic side clamped that down. He wasn't a scientist anymore, he was a fugitive. He had to work out how to survive, and while Loki told him to wait he didn't really expect the ""god"" to return. So he began looking around for some form of shelter. Though just as he was thinking about calling a nice pile of sticks home he heard some clanking.<br/><br/>Turning around he saw Loki with a pile of what appeared to be camping gear, some food, clothes. Everything he would need to survive out here, at least initially. However he had a high enough IQ that he could probably figure out how to get everything else going. He walked over to the edge of the pile furthest from Loki, still worried to get too close. First as this was the first person to be nice to him (Other than Betty) after discovering he was the Hulk and he still didn't know the motives that Loki was playing on. The fact Loki was a trickster god was Bruces real concern, could you trust someone that in myth and legend went down as a liar and a scoundrel? So he decided to just thank him instead, and be done with it.<br/><br/>""Thankyou, Loki."" He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly. ""I guess I owe you one. These supplies will come in pretty handy-"" He looked around at the vast expanse. However he was noticably less interested in the heavens than his green counterpart was, though of course Bruce himself didn't notice that for he didn't have memories of being the Hulk anyway. ""-and there's no chance I can hurt anybody out here.""  He hadn't forgotten that Loki had said that he hadn't hurt anyone other than those who got in his way.<br/><br/>However he had still hurt, possibly killed. Yes he was the one who worked on the Gamma Bomb but that was only to get into the world of Gamma energy. Nobody would fund a scientist trying to create a powerful energy source for all man kind to share, so he had to start with something that could get him recognition. Get him seen.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">It got me seen all right.</span></div>"

As the arrow flew from his bow, it emitted a smoke reminiscent of dry ice.  Once this arrow hit its mark on the giant creature, an explosion of water covered the metallic dinosaur, which instantaneously froze, generating what seemed like a giant ice block surrounding whatever the heck that thing was.<br/><br/>	“Problem solved.  Dinosaur, meet the Ice Age.”  Clint had an arrogant smirk plastered on his face, or at least it was there until the ice began to crack.  The metal-horned Triceratops, exerting itself against the ice, shattered it, sending fragments in all directions.  Eyeing the purple-clad archer, the monster squared its shoulders toward Clint and sent another energy beam at him.<br/><br/>	Without the intervention of Spider-Man, as the media calls him, Clint only barely leapt out of the way of what would have been certain death.  While Clint tumbled to the ground, some of his arrows slipped out of his quiver.  While the majority of his arrows had to be activated through a device on his arm, one specific arrow that did not require such safety protocols happened to strike the ground.  Around the radius of the arrow, which had landed point downward, an energy bubble bloomed outward.  Since Clint was not located inside the epicenter, the expanding walls pushed him aside.<br/><br/>	After being shoved around by one of his own arrows, Clint peered up to see what the creature’s next move would be.  However, the cretaceous fiend had turned its attention toward the hero known as Spider-Man.  Then he noticed that the spider-themed hero was holding something in his hands.  One of his arrows, in fact!<br/><br/>	“Hey!  Don’t touch that!”  Clint shouted, knowing that the arrow he was holding could be extremely dangerous (even if unarmed) or potentially useless, especially if he had picked up one of his ‘normal arrows’.<br/><br/>	“Take a chill pill, Cupid!  I’m smarter than I appear!”  Spider-Man dashed forward toward the creature, almost as if he was intending to ram into the monster.  However, instead of continuing forward, he leaped into the air, slamming the arrow on the forehead of the Triceratops.  Once the arrow was planted on the creature’s head, Spider-Man performed a backflip off the bipedal dinosaur, landing several feet away.  Suddenly, just as a similar arrow had done a few seconds earlier, an energy bubble blossomed from the arrow head.  However, instead of pushing the creature outside of the bubble, as the other arrow had done to Clint, the arrow’s effect enclosed around it, trapping it inside.  Even when it tried to dig its way out from underneath it, the shield did not give way at all.  When it tried to blast its way out, the energy beams ricocheted of the bubble’s walls, knocking the creature onto its back.<br/><br/>	“Well, I think you two can handle this from here.”  Spider-Man said before shooting up a webline and swinging away through the city.<br/><br/>	“I have to admit”, Hawkeye said as he crossed his arms and gazed at the captured creature, “He does have style.  Not as much as I do, but he still has some at the very least.”  Mockingbird just rolled her eyes and shook her head at Hawkeyes comment.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>	Miles Warren was enjoying his afternoon tea at an outdoor café.  His computer was sitting on the table next to him, but nothing was opened on the screen.  Only the background showed.  He just watched people walk back and forth past the little café as they minded their own business.  It is so bizarre how these people can be walking down these streets so calmly while so many unexplainable spectacles were happening across the city.  Were they this ignorant?<br/><br/>	*beep*  *beep*  *beep*<br/><br/>	Professor Warren turned his attention back toward his computer, opening up a private instant messaging server.  On the far right side corner of the application, the server showed there were two people currently in the chatroom.  One handle was Doctor Jackal, which was Warren’s own username.  The other one was Doctor Monster.<br/><br/>	“Your work is quite impressive.”  Miles typed into the chat interface, referring to the mechanically enhanced Triceratops that took two superheroes working together to take down.  It took a few seconds before Warren received a response.<br/><br/>	“And so is yours.”  Moments after whoever was using the ‘Doctor Monster’ handle typed this, a few images of Damon Ryder appeared on the chatroom.  While they were small enough that anyone passing by would not notice the images, Miles nevertheless closed the images just in case.<br/><br/>	“Maybe we should pool our resources and knowledge.  Imagine what we could do.”<br/><br/>	“Yes.  We will l have to arrange a meeting.”</div>"

America kept her eyes fixated onto the ground as she arrived, with her not even glancing up at Thor as she spoke. She seemed to compliment her fighting skills. America’s hands clenched shut at the comment. Could the bloody Asgardian not see the devastation that they had caused? Nevertheless the Latina stayed relatively quiet, with her mumbling something along the lines of “I’m ok.”<br/><br/>It was her final comment though that snapped America back into reality however. Oh, America knew exactly what was the cause of the noise that Thor had spoken of. It was S.H.I.E.L.D. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios!</span> Why was it always bloody S.H.I.E.L.D? Moving her arm across her face, she wiped away the tears from her now slightly swollen eyes. She would save her tears for later. Now she needed her game face. Conceal, don’t feel. The thought brought a slight smile to her face. Who knew that crappy film would actually teach you something!<br/><br/>“Those are the good guys.” America replied coolly to Thor as she stepped into the air, moving herself upwards. <br/><br/>She gazed around the destruction, pinning the guilt to the back of her mind as she did so. There they were all around them closing in. Quinjets. America couldn’t count how many. Realizing that the turrets weren’t aimed at them, she issued a sigh of relief. She really wasn’t up for punching anything else today.  Agents seemed to be moving in all around them, planting what appeared to be explosive onto the bottom of the crumbling office building. For a second America was bewildered, that was until she realized what they were doing. She nodded in agreement to their actions, despite the fact that no one was looking at her to receive it. That was when she caught sight of him. The Falcon!  <br/><br/>“Wait…” She said aloud as she further watched the hero work below. She took into account the costume. Sure he had the wings but this was definitely not a Falcon get-up. No, that was a Captain America costume. Her suspicions were confirmed at the sight of the famous red, white and blue shield. For the first time in a while, she let out a short laugh. A female Thor, a black Captain America. This earth was turning out to be better than she thought.<br/><br/>At the Captain’s orders, Chavez moved forward. Lashing out with her leg, she kicked apart a large piece of falling debris, seeking to lessen its blow on the agents working below. The same was done with a falling photocopier which had slid off an ascended piece of floor. <br/><br/>Although the focus was now to safely bring down the building, there were still several individuals trapped inside. One of which was about to be crushed by a large amount of falling rubble. Using herself as a barricade, America threw herself in front of the terrified office work, with her attempting to hold up the falling ceiling. Initially she fell under its weight, although after giving one last burst of strength, America managed to hold it up. <br/><br/>“Oi, Thor!” America called down to her companion. “I could seriously use a hand up here!”<br/></div>"

There would surely be plenty of time for that later, right now, the building was shaking and it was only a matter of time before it crumbled down causing devastating damage. <br/><br/>Thor leapt up towards the upper floors, some of the floors had collapsed in on themselves rending exit via the usual means virtually impossible, or perilous at best. The emergency fire-exit stairways that were welded to the side of the building were damaged, many groaned and creaked threatening to snap off altogether, others had already snapped from their supports and swung like garish earrings pierced to the side of the building. The only way out for many was to simply jump, and the jump was suicide for a regular human.<br/><br/>Thor breezed through the building as quickly as she could, taking 2 or 3 people at a time, on her back, over her shoudler, wherever they could cling to her, before jumping down to a safe enough height to place the fleeing people on the ground where they could run to a safer distance. On several occasions her denim jeans snagged on pieces of debris but she continued to power through. The sooner she could get back to her apartment and get back into her faithful Asgardian armour, the better, human clothing was horribly easy to damage and it simply wouldn't do. <br/> <br/>Suddenly America called out and Thor leapt up along the building with the grace of a galloping gazelle, a surprising feat for someone who could literally plough through a wall, easily helping America hoist up the collapsed ceiling with her incredible Asgardian strength. <span class=""bb-b"">""Use your flight, get these people to safety, I'll hold this up, we haven't much time""</span> Thor said, shifting the weight of the concrete and warped steel beams onto her shoulder so that America could slip out from under the ceiling and rescue a few more humans. </div>"

The assisted strength helped to lessen the load of the rubble, allowing the two to keep it suspended in the air. Giving her new partner a nod, America let go, dropping downwards. Following the Asgardian’s instructions, she swooped down towards the office worker whom she had been shielding and grabbed him by the wrists. Swinging him into her arms, the Latina flew him out of the building, leaving him in the care of the gathering S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. <br/><br/>Leaving Thor to deal with the rubble, America dove straight back into the search of other survivors. She found the odd one or two, as they tried to navigate a safe route down. America lowered herself near them in order to carry them to safety, however one of them, a portly middle aged man, turned up his nose at the thought. <br/><br/>“You have to be kidding me!” He groaned obnoxiously. “You’re the bloody idiot that caused this mess!”<br/><br/>Guilt flooded through America once more at the comment. Her lip wavered slightly but regardless she stood with her head up high. Well, technically she levitated with her head held high.<br/><br/>“Chico…” America smirked. “I wouldn’t be moaning at the only person who could possibly save your life right now.”<br/><br/>The man opened his mouth to reply before shutting it sharply, with him potentially realizing that she was right. Reluctantly the man offered his hand as if to ask for assistance. America simply nodded, pulling him upwards, along with the man’s companion. The journey back to the ground was a quiet one. The man was clearly still agitated but who could blame him. He was right after all; she had caused this. Dropping them off with another group of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, a thought crossed her mind. A chance at redemption. Catching sight of the fellow patriotic hero, America pressed forward.<br/><br/>“Captain?” She asked as she glided towards him, punching apart a piece of falling rubble as she did so. “I know this may not be the best of times but… This was all my fault.”</div>"

He turned back around to face the building as an agent came up to him, he was strapping his shield to its clip on his back. ""Charges are set Sir, ready on your mark."" He handed him the detonator and Wilson just held it in his hand as the hispanic looking girl came over to him. He put his free hand on her shoulder. ""You went out with the best intentions, to save lives-"" He then moved his hand and tapped one of his fingers on his head. ""-Though you have to remember to use that. Or theres no point in you doing anything. You had good intent, and people got hurt. Think first, action second. If you don't think first theres no point in doing anything. I don't mean sit back and don't do anything, but try to think about more than the next punch.""<br/><br/>He looked up towards the building, where he could barely see the hammer weilding woman. Tapping his compiece his voice was relayed htrough his quinjet that was still hanging around the area, he was surprised Fury had let him use the Quinjets in public however there were no markings identifying them with S.H.I.E.L.D. Just another faceless government agency. ""I'd get out of there, I need to set off the charges or we're gonna lose the building."" With that he hit the detonator, the bottom of the building shook slightly, as the charges collapsed the inner structure. His quinjet came in to land in the middle of the street, the back facing him and the girl he was with. Several S.H.I.E.L.D agents surrounded the two of them, however their guns weren't raised. However anyone with a lick of sense would notice that the weilders wer ready at the slightest sign of aggression.<br/><br/>Wilson tipped his head to them, then shrugged. ""What can I say? It's protcol. Now I know you were meaning good, however I'm going to have to take you in."" He put his hand on her shoulder again. ""We're the good guys, we can help you figure all this out--"" he removed his hand. ""-If you help us, we can help you. Then you can be on your way."" Which was entirely dependent on her answers to the questions and whatever requirements Fury gave her for her freedom. He signalled to the Quinjet. ""You run along, I'll wait for your hammer friend.""<br/><br/>He turned around to look at her, waiting for her to catch up. She was the one he was slightly more interested in. She had records, though falsified, what truly made her interesting was that before this there was no word of her existence. No brith certificates, missing persons reports, school reports, credit cards. Nothing, it was as if she had just appeared on the planet one day. She may have went un-noticed until the IRS started investigating her, and then later her friend had started publishing extra-ordinary papers that had drawn skepticism towards him. She was something else.<br/><br/>He offered his hand to her. ""Captain Wilson, at your service-"" She <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> (Per the records he had seen) been here long enough to be at his 'unveiling' though whether or not she had seen it and knew who he wasn't a certainty. ""-I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you some questions regarding to what happened here today Ma'am.""<br/></div>"

It wasn't an issue of Thor not being strong enough to hold the place up, she most certainly was able, it was more an issue of the building refusing to stay in one piece. There was only so much she could do. <br/><br/>Suddenly a shrill cry from amidst the rubble pierced through her ear-drums. Whether America had finished her work with the surivivors or not, Thor had to abandon her post, she slipped out from under the collapsing ceiling, a large chunk crashing down instantly, and she dug through a pile of rubble where the noise had come from, pulling out a child, as delicately as she could, though the shaking building meant she had to move more swiftly than delicately. The kid wriggled and screamed, seriously injured but alive, thanks to Thor pulling her out. The first of the charges detonated and Thor knew the building was lost, her position was lost, she just had to get out, and hope America had made it out alive and that there was no one else left in the building. She curled her arm around the frightened child, tucking the kid as closely to her as she could without crushing the small Midgardian. Carrying a small child would make escaping significantly more tricky, as Thor was content to just throw herself out, knocking out a wall with ease, she couldn't risk the child getting hurt though, but with no other choice, she had to take the risk. She knocked out a chunk of the wall, making an exit for herself and the child, though there was a significant drop, this would be the trickiest part of all. She fell, from about the 4th floor, bracing herself for a landing, if she couldn't stay on her feet, she'd risk crushing the child under her greater weight. The explosion behind her only served to push her further away from the building, force pushing her fast and faster through the air.  <br/><br/>Finally she hit the ground, knees bent to stick the landing and she stayed up right for the initial contact of feet-meet-soil, seconds later she fell forward, momentum from the fall pushing her forward but she threw out her right arm and managed to keep herself and the child safe, in one piece. She exhaled in relief, it had been incredibly risky and close, she child clung desperately to her, howling in pain, the poor young human probably had crushed legs, though Thor hadn't a moment to assess the childs injuries during their escape. Pulling herself back up she passed the child to a medical crew who were in the process of treating patients and moving patients away from the building. Thor turned to look at the gutted building, it was already half demolished, charges detonated, only a few portions of the building remained, and they too were crumbling inward. <br/><br/>Thor was catching her breath when Wilson appeared. He introduced himself, though Thor was surprised, he seemed calm amongst the chaos which was unusual behaviour from what she had seen. Regardless, she played along. <span class=""bb-b"">""Tara Olsen""</span> she replied, she raised an eyebrow at the mention of questions. This guy was most unusual and she was wary, she wished Dwight were here, he knew how to deal with Midgardians and their protocols and questioning tactics, she was a battle maiden ... a Goddess of Asgard, this was not her field. <span class=""bb-b"">""There is not much I can tell you, I know not what happened to the beast""</span> she said warily. Dwight warned her to play her cards close to her chest, to never give up information easily for her own safety. Although her actions today blew her cover somewhat there was much about her that no one knew, and with any luck, she could return to anonymity. Right now she just wanted to return to her apartment, or even to the coffee shop to find Dwight, he'd know what to do. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Captain, I hate to be rude but, might I excuse myself briefly, return to my apartment and change into something unspoiled? Then I will answer any of your questions.""</span> She said, glancing down at her torn and muddy clothes, hopefully she could find Dwight on the way and explain the situation, he could tell her what to say and what not to say. He'd know what this Wilson fellow would want to know right? </div>"

""I'm sorry Miss Olsen however firstly I don't want to ask you about the Hulk-"" He placed his hand on her shoulder. ""-Second if you want fresh clothes we can either supply some or send someone to get some from your appartment. I'm afraid this issue is time sensitive. I need you to come with me now, otherwise there could be more trouble and right now-"" He indicated to the building. ""-With the damage caused here, we can't afford that. Especially, and no offence ma'am we can't have you caught in the middle of it again. If you want we can have Mr.Parkins picked up and brought to our base if that would make you feel more comfortable. However we really must be getting ready to go.""<br/><br/>	Thor was wary of this Wilson fella, his motives were impossible to determine, especially since he wanted to question her about something other than the Hulk. Regardless, he had a point; Thor didn't exactly want to hang around here for much longer either.<br/>At the mention of a certain Mr Parkins though, she wondered if maybe she could allow herself to relax, was this stranger a friend she could trust? Could he help her track down Loki?<br/>	""You are a friend of Dwight? "" she asked. ""Very well then, I shall go with you, Dwight has the spare key to my apartment he can grab my things"" she agreed. Maybe things were finally looking up...<br/><br/>	Wilson was kind of taken back by the comment. Perhaps the people who felt she wasn't off this world were actually... right. It seemed a bit odd and a bit far fetched, however there was a ""Spider-man"" who had just been fighting a triceratops capable of shooting laser beams in existence. So in the grand scheme of things it wasn't all that odd, just a surprise. Though he could be wrong, perhaps she was just naive. In the end it made no difference, she was going to come with him and that was the important thing. ""We do know Dwight yes, I'll have someone pick him up and grab you a fresh set of clothes."" He nodded at a nearby agent, who just turned around and started walking away.<br/><br/>	He indicated to the back of the open quinjet. ""After you ma'am."" He then followed her into the jet, and let her sit down, he himself stayed standing as the door behind him closed and the craft lifted off. <br/><br/>	Thor didn’t know that Wilson was part of SHIELD, much less what SHIELD was, and that it wasn’t the type of thing Dwight was involved in, but she was easily fooled, it helped that she had utterly no clue how human society on Midgard functioned and hadn’t exactly been around long enough to figure it all out. Surely, this Wilson guy wouldn’t have known Dwight by name had they not become friends, and if Dwight trusted Wilson, Thor was willing to consider taking the risk too, but only after she got to know a little more about Wilson and what was going on. Regardless, if Wilson knew anything about Loki, she would be willing to cooperate, she had no time to waste. <br/><br/>	Inside the jet, Thor looked around. SHe just looked. At everything. This was nothing like Dwights rickety old car, or the public transports she’d been on. The jet was … it was beyond her comprehension and there were agents milling about using computers with all sorts of complicated things on display. To say she was ever so slightly overwhelmed was an accurate statement, though she kept her cool, everyone else on the jet seemed to be relatively calm so she adopted an air of nonchalance. <br/><br/>	Dwight was fretting, then again, he was a bit of a worrier by nature, it didn’t help that he saw a great green monster crash into NYC and see his friend (and greatest research assistant ever) disappear to fight against goodness-only-knows what sort of odds. He was shocked further when a stranger approached him with a grim expression. <br/>“Dwight Parkins” the agent said stoically. <br/>	Dwight nodded and tried not to shake too much. “And who might you be?” he asked, his voice not faltering which surprised even himself. <br/>	“I am from SHIELD, we have your friend, Ms. Olsen. She’s agreed to come with us for questioning but has requested a change of clothes, after the fight her outfits a little worse for wear … and you know what women are like” the agent said casually, it wouldn’t do to get Dwight all nervous afterall, anything Dwight knew about … <span class=""bb-i"">Tara</span> would aid the investigation. <br/>	“Ms Olsen said you had a key to her apartment, so if you would be willing to hel-”<br/>	Dwight nodded instantly, “Yes, of course, I’ll go right away and her her some things.”<br/>	While Thor didn’t know what she was getting into, Dwight was suspicious and wanted to make sure he could catch up with her quick. <br/><br/>	Luckily, Thor’s tiny flat wasn’t too far and Dwight made it over quickly, keeping his conversation with the SHIELD agent as casual as possible. Thor’s flat was entirely bare in regards of technology or electronic gadgets. There was a fridge, lightly stocked, and lights, a telephone by the door but she rarely used it. It was sparsely furnished or decorated, as if someone hadn’t even finished moving in yet. In her bedroom, Dwight dug through her closet to get some clean clothes and managed to find some of her Asgardian gear, tucking it underneath her regular civillian clothes, perhaps she’d need something armoured and her civvie stuff wouldn’t suffice. </div>"

Our forefathers have almost faced clear and present dangers.  The British.  Slavery.  Communism.  Terrorists.  However, there is a new threat to the American way.  Mutants.  If anything, the ‘Mutant’ incident reveals how hopefully powerless we are against these super-powered individuals.  We were fortunate that this only happened to an individual building with minimal casualties.  But what will happen next?  An airplane in midflight?  A subway crammed at rush hour?  A school full of children?  Something must be done to protect the international and domestic security of this grand nation.  While several ideas have been tossed around on Capitol Hill, the United States government has not yet decided what route is the best course for this situation.

They are, of course, all human and therefore are guaranteed the same rights, protections, and liberties that everyone else does.  Have we not progressed as a society to just regress back into the barbaric practices of the past?  Were efforts of Martin Luther King Jr. and the suffrage movements exerted in vain just to return to bigotry?  We are not talking about inanimate objects that have no souls and no consciences.  They are human beings and must be treated as such.<br/><br/>	When a normal human commits murder with a firearm, they will be tried in the court systems.  When someone uses illegal substances, they will be arrested for possession.  Those who break traffic laws will be ticketed and, when necessary, summoned to court.  These ‘Mutants’ should also be subject to this same system.  If such a super-powered being, such as that wall-crawling menace better known as Spider-Man, commits a felony, they should be punished at the full extent of the law.

Peter originally got involved with the Bugle when the publisher, J. Jonah Jameson, put out a reward for anyone who could get a clear picture of the wall-crawler for his mudslinging campaign against Spider-Man.  At first, it seemed like a pretty simple task.  How hard could it be to take pictures of oneself without making it obvious that Spider-Man was the person taking the pictures?<br/><br/>	Unfortunately, Peter discovered that it was actually more difficult than he first imagined.  Sometimes, the battles would go in unforeseen ways, moving away from his camera ‘trap’.  Heck, sometimes, Peter would not even have enough time to deploy his camera, let alone pick the best spot for it to take pictures.  Therefore, Peter only took these “selfies” while he was Spider-Man only when he could guarantee good results.  Furthermore, after thinking about it, Peter concluded that by being the only photographer who could get a snapshot of Spider-Man would look very suspicious and could even lead to Spider-Man’s enemies confronting his civilian identity (or his family and friends) over the whereabouts of Spider-Man.  Who would want that?<br/><br/>	While waiting for his last summer shift at the Bugle to eclipse, Peter updated the framework of the DBC’s website, ensuring that there were no vulnerabilities in its code.  He even sent the website through a stress test of some viruses that were programmed by Peter himself just to see how well the website could stand up to real cyber-attacks.  Once his code pasted with flying colors, all Peter had left to do was sort through emails that ‘suggested’ feedback to what people thought was positive and negative about the website.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, Peter’s spider-sense went off.  However, it was only a false-positive, as his ‘sixth’ sense was only alerting him that his cell-phone was about ready to ring.  When he glanced down at his phone while double tasking, Peter saw that his friend, Angelica, had just texted him.  “Are you still at work?”  She asked him in electronic form.<br/><br/>	While working at the Daily Bugle could get boring some days, on the other hand, being an employee gave Peter one large advantage: he could hear rumors about local crime and check it out as Spider-Man.  For instance, just that day, Peter heard one of the lead reports, Ben Urich, mention that the Rose was going to be making a play for some maggia turf that was under the influence of a maggia leader named Silvermane.<br/><br/>	“I’ll be done in about an hour.  Are you and Bobby up for a little team up tonight?  Getting the ‘gang’ back together?”  Peter sent as his reply.<br/><br/>	“Don’t you have that ‘blind’ date that your aunt has been trying to throw at you for the past few years?”  Peter had totally forgotten about the ‘blind’ date that his aunt and one of her friends had orchestrated.  Peter had been dodging this inevitable event for years.  His Aunt May would have forced this onto him years ago if Peter had not started dating Gwen back in his freshman year in high school.  How desperate must this Watson girl be that her own aunt (i.e. Aunt May’s friend) had to set her up on a blind date?  Peter would rather fight the green bruiser that had been recently dubbed the ‘Hulk’ rather than live up to this date.<br/><br/>	“What about tomorrow?”  Peter asked.<br/><br/>	“It’s a weekend, so it’s probably doable.”  Angelica replied.  After a few seconds, before Peter could type anything back, Angelica sent a second text to him.  “Just keep me updated.  If you ever need some rescuing, just holler my way :)”.<br/><br/>	“How often do I ever need rescuing?”  Peter replied as he waited for the last hour to melt away.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>	“Peter Benjamin Parker!  Come down and get washed up for dinner!  The Watsons will be here any second now!”  Peter knew that his aunt meant business whenever she called him by using his middle name.  Peter set aside his Nintendo DS and jumped off his bed, intending to head toward the restroom to wash his hands before dinner.  Once that was done, Peter walked down the stairs to the first floor of his house.  While Peter could have rushed down the stairs without make much noise due to his superhuman abilities, he decided to walk “normally”, as he was not too excited about this ‘date’.  Not only was he going to be on a blind date, but both of their aunts would be there too!<br/><br/>	Once Peter heard the doorbell ring, he found a seat on the couch in front of the living room television and made himself comfortable there.  His aunt had left on the Daily Bugle news running.  While his aunt was heading over to answer the door, Peter was praying for some sort of superhuman incident to happen and appear on the news.  Just any reason for him to have to slip away from this nightmare.  He would even take on two super-humans that were fighting the Hulk along with Hulk instead of being on this blind date.<br/><br/>	“Anna, I’m so glad you could make it!  Where’s Mary Jane?”<br/><br/>	“I’m so glad we could finally organize this.  She’s locking up the car and carrying in a pie that we backed together.  She’s definitely my favorite niece.  Such a doll.  But don’t tell anyone else that!”<br/><br/>	“Oh, Peter, could you get the door when Mary Jane comes in?”  Peter just agreed to do it.  While to everyone else his Aunt May might seem like the gentlest women one has ever seen, if she gets made enough, even Peter with his super-human strength sometimes has to run for the hills!  Of course that’s an exaggeration, but it gets the point across.  Once the doorbell rang again, Peter picked himself off the couch and headed towards the door, dreading each step he took.  Once he opened the door, he saw MJ for the very first time.<br/><br/>	“Face it, Tiger, you just hit the jackpot!”<br/></div>"

From what she could tell, they were only just witnessing the birth of the very first superbeings, so interdimensional travel probably came as quite a jump for them. Regardless she had told them the truth, leaving out the details on Utopia, as well as her actual reason for coming to this world. That was her business and her business alone. <br/><br/>Upon entering the S.H.I.E.L.D. facility, America had continued to keep her emotions contained. Sure she had apologised and displayed clear regret for her actions but she wasn’t shedding a tear in front of anyone, especially not any members of such a bothersome organisation such as S.H.I.E.L.D.<br/><br/>To her right sat Thor. Since arriving, she had changed into her armour, or as some may say, her super-suit. America had to say, she looked pretty impressive. Pretty being the key word there. The mighty hammer of legend, Mjolner, rested upright on the table in front of them. Across the table from them however stood the man who had brought them in; Captain America. The Captain had officially introduced himself on the quinjet right over here, with him having taken the two wannabe heroes to an isolated room somewhere in the facility. The walls were lined with numerous hexagonal panels, which Chavez had a feeling would be pretty difficult to punch a hole through. The thought concerned Ms America. If this “talk” didn’t go to plan, then this would surely be their prison. <br/><br/>Thor tried to keep quiet for as long as possible, to learn as much as she could before opening her mouth and accidentally spilling any secrets or information which would prove useful to her later. She noticed she had gotten a few strange looks after she’d changed, since her armour was unusual, though no one seemed too suspicious just yet, given that they’d just seen a Hulk and Miss America in action, it came as no surprise that her costume hadn’t totally shocked everyone. <br/><br/>America revealed she was not from around here, and Thor believed perhaps it was safe for her to blow her cover … though she was hesitant. “I too am not from Manhattan” Thor replied calmly, “I only recently moved here” though she didn’t know anything of Midgard’s geography and if she were asked where she previously lived, she’d have to hope she could make up an accurate location that sounded remotely convincing. She wanted to ask about Loki, but again, she risked revealing she was from Asgard, and that Loki too, had come to Midgard from Asgard. <br/><br/>“I am concerned about the whereabouts of the Green Beast” she said, Loki had vanished with it, that was her best chance of tracking him down. “Now is really not the time to talk when something so dangerous is out there. Should we not be tracking it down right now?” she asked. Was she convincing? Probably not, but it was worth a shot. <br/><br/>Wilson nodded at the agent who had previously been questioning the two of them before he came in here. “We know you’re not from here Tara, hell from as far as we know you’re not even from this planet. With another hero that has been running about, your hammer gives me a good idea of who you can be-” He then turned to the one wearing the American jacket. “That bit I believe, there is a radiation coming of you consistent with-” Wilson paused as if collecting his thoughts, truthfully he was just trying to remember what the tech said. “-It doesn’t matter. Story pans out for you.” <br/><br/>He walked to the now vacant chair and sat down, his wings and shield weren’t attached to his back, which made this possible. “In terms of the Hulk, Banner. Whatever you want to call the <span class=""bb-i"">Green Beast</span> we know where he is, to within a couple of hundred miles give or take. We’ve been trying to find a way to get in touch with him however as you’ve seen, it can be risky. There are also those who like to shoot at him, which just causes a lot of green.”<br/><br/>He leaned back in his chair. “Truth be told, the main reason you’re here is your oddities. Though you aren’t secret oddities. You’ve went into the public spotlight, and that causes it’s own host of problems-” He raised his arms indicating the room. “-So here we are. For me to determine if you’re going to be any kind of problem or not.”<br/><br/>America’s eyes darted between the two heroes as they spoke. Thor’s comment confirmed her suspicion that the now armoured woman was an Asgardian, which truly meant that she was actually Thor. It was surprising to hear that they believed her story. Last time she had been met them it had taken ages to convince the then Director Hill about the truth. Chavez also took note of the Captain’s comment on the radiation she was emitting. It was useful to know that she had a giveaway although she knew that there wasn’t much she could do about it now. She reminded herself to pry deeper about it later when she had the time. <br/><br/>She nodded intently at the comments on her previous combatant; the Hulk. She was tempted to reassure Captain America that luckily he only had one such gamma-creature on this world to worry about, although she decided that would probably cause more harm than good. <br/><br/>“Captain…” She began, turning her head to the super soldier. “I’m only here to deal with a small problem and then I’ll be on my way.” She moved her arms up in a reassuring manner. “Trust me <span class=""bb-i"">Chico</span>.”<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Damn</span> Tara thought, it was as though he saw right through her. Maybe she could convince him she <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> from earth. Was <span class=""bb-i"">Old York</span> a place? Surely it was, given that there was a New York. Given that he already suspected she wasn’t from this planet, perhaps it wasn’t even worth trying, and it appeared this interrogation wasn’t going to end anytime soon if she chose to be difficult, and she didn’t have time, so she’d have to cooperate somewhat. <br/><br/>“There is a <span class=""bb-i"">dangerous fugitive</span> with the Hulk, if you think that green rage monster is a threat then you truly stand no chance against his accomplice, and I can’t let him get away <span class=""bb-i"">not again</span>” she stared at Mjolnir intensely, that weapon would strike Loki down, and for the last time, she’d not allow him to tear apart worlds ever again. <br/><br/>It appeared her cover was pretty much blown, Wilson already gathered she was from another planet, and she could only assume he wouldn’t let her leave until he had more answers. Dwight had worked with Wilson’s people to deliver her Asgardian armour, although she hadn’t got to talk to Dwight directly, she could only hope that Dwight kept good company and that these people were truly her potential allies. <br/><br/>“I did not come to Midgard to cause trouble … I came in search of Odinson, in search of answers, and I found Loki instead. I am Thor, of Asgard, and I do not wish to be your enemy, let me punish the war criminal, Laufeyson, and I’ll be out of your hair.” she confessed, though it appeared that SHIELD had already figured out a lot about her already, this would hardly come as a shock, it was only confirmation of their very steady suspicions. She looked at America and smiled softly, it seemed there were two strange visitors who weren’t from Earth. They were both trapped in this strange mess together it seemed.  <br/><br/>Wilson didn’t know what one to reply to first, so he decided to go with the one who spoke first. “Miss, we can’t exactly just <span class=""bb-i"">trust</span> someone with your level of power with everything that just happened and how public you just became. Not to mention there’s such a thing as <span class=""bb-i"">damage</span> control. Now I’m not saying you’re gonna be a prisoner. Though I need to know who you are, and what this <span class=""bb-i"">small</span> problem is. Then we’ll keep tabs on you, and you can be on your way.” He then turned to <span class=""bb-i"">Thor</span>. He guessed that their suspicions on the other individual were true.<br/><br/>If she was telling the truth. “Alright <span class=""bb-i"">Thor</span>. Once you’re done punishing where are you going to go then? Also who is this Loki you speak off? Is he the other guy who actually got rid of the Hulk? If so he’s not the villain here. In fact we have reason to suspect he’s been working to be a hero for well over three decades. In terms of the Hulk, that’s a more complicated conundrum than you’d think.” This may be a simple case transfer, simple psych test power check and they could be on their way.<br/><br/>Assuming everything was in order, S.H.I.E.L.D had learned its lesson about just imprisoning everyone with abilities. If they proved to not be wanting to cause trouble they were often released, some choosing to pursue hero work (under observation) or indeed work within S.H.I.E.L.D. He just hoped that these two wouldn’t take the alternate route, in causing trouble.<br/><br/>The Captain’s comment caused America to furrow her brow. Honestly though she couldn’t blame them for not trusting them. If she was them, America would do exactly the same. What she has done today was downright stupid. She would have to tell them the truth if she wished to get out of this place now and that definitely wasn’t something which she had wanted. This was supposed to be a quiet investigation. She couldn’t have the world’s largest government organisation knowing that someone else was out there popping holes in the multiverse. Nor let them know that they were smuggling out Mutant Drug Hormone. They’d just mess everything up, as usual. Hypocritical much?<br/><br/>So America did something that would probably deserve a good slap from her mothers if they were still here. She put on her best poker face and lied.<br/><br/>“Fine, If you must know Cap’... I’m stuck here. Permanently if i’m not able to track down the Nexus of All Realities.”<br/><br/>Nexus of All Realities. That was believable right? Well believable for a near indestructible woman who can kick holes through reality. These guys were bound to lick that up, especially if it sounded as if it was powerful. S.H.I.E.L.D. always had to be better than all the rest right?<br/><br/>Thor thought for a moment. Punishing Loki was certainly a priority, but, what if she still had no answers concerning Odinson? Then her journey was still far from over. Even after she got her answers, what then? She hadn’t considered where she would go next. Forward thinking wasn’t her strong point, nor had it been Odinson’s, though Loki was always a planner. What was her plan?  “Once I have taken care of Loki … Well, I don’t have a plan, I didn’t expect him to be here in the first place” she admitted, she was a bad liar anyway and SHIELD seemed to know enough about her anyway. “But if it helps, I never intended to stay here, I’ll go back to Asgard … if there is anything left of it that is” she sighed. She’d narrowly escaped within an inch of her life during Ragnarok, although it had been quite some time, she wondered if there was much left, if anything, to go back to. <br/><br/>“Yes, Loki was with the Hulk-thing, but he is not your ally” Thor said, gravely serious. If anyone considered him an Ally they were making a grave mistake.<br/><br/>“Yeah, the dude flipped us off before jacking out of there!” America added. “Dick move.”<br/><br/>Thor nodded, at least America was on her side here. “Loki has destroyed an entire realm, do not let him take Midgard as well.” she warned. “He is a God of Lies, a Trickster and a manipulator.” she hoped in her heart of hearts that they would believe her and let her go, though the odds weren’t exactly in her favor given how things went down with the Hulk!<br/><br/>During the conversation, Wilson had signalled to the camera for an agent to come in. He had done all he could with the younger woman. It had come to a psych test, bag tag and release. Hopefully, if all things went smoothly. <br/><br/>At Wilson’s command, the cell’s door hissed open. A lone S.H.I.E.L.D. agent stepped in, approaching the table. It was evident from the small patches of sweat on the man’s forehead that he was nervous about the situation; he was after all in the presence of two superbeings who had just helped destroy New York City. <br/><br/>Wilson nodded at the agent. “Miss Chavez, you’re with him.”<br/><br/>America opened her mouth to speak, initially wishing to argue her case further. Realizing that there wasn’t much point in arguing against the Captain, she glumly shut it, before rising to her feet. <br/><br/>“Thank you for listening, Captain.” She spoke calmly, attempting to sound mature and responsible. “Thor, give that horned asshole hell if they let your out of here.” <br/><br/>Smiling, she turned on her heel and marched out of the room, the agent following closely behind. <br/><br/>“Now Miss-” He said pointing at Thor. “-You aren’t going to take <span class=""bb-i"">care</span> of anyone. I know what that means and I’ve done my fair share of it, but that’s not how we do things around here. If you want to do that you can just go back to where you come from. Also you may have not intended to stay here, but you’re here now and are going to have to deal with the rules and laws that exist here.”<br/><br/>“He must face Asgardian justice!” THor interrupted standing up, frustrated and just a little desperate to leave, though she didn’t grab Mjolnir … at least not yet. <br/><br/>He stood up again and paced back and forth for a second collecting his words. “From what we can tell, and this is early stuff. The Hulk isn’t an antagonist, this is very early stuff mind you. Yes, we need to stop the Hulk I agree with you. However provoking a response never does us any good. I agree that the name <span class=""bb-i"">Loki</span> doesn’t inspire confidence, in fact it does the complete opposite for me. However the evidence is stacked with him and against you, we have indications he may have been on Earth since the second world war. If he wanted to destroy or take over the world he could have done it by now. We wouldn’t have been able to stop him, especially not during the second world war.”<br/><br/>He sighed, rubbing his hand down the side of his face, taking a moment to think. “If you truly mean well, stay with us. Temporarily. We’ll show you what we’ve got on Loki and even help bring him in for questioning. However I can’t have you going out on a hunt full of rage and vengeance.” He nodded behind him, where a wall panel came up showing a TV screen showing the moment in the battle Thor gave up her fight with the Hulk to attack Loki. “You know what that did last time.”<br/><br/>Thor, being niève as she was, couldn’t understand why no one (bar America) seemed to see how big a threat Loki was, she was utterly perplexed that <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> appeared to be the villain in this situation. In reality though, it made sense, Loki had been well behaved as far as anyone could tell, and since Thor stopped hiding as Tara Olsen … she’d only caused trouble, albeit with good intentions. The Captain seemed rather unconvinced by her, given that he suspected Loki would have taken over by now if he wanted too, but Thor knew how long lived Asgardian’s were, Loki would bide his time. She decided against arguing further, since the Captain didn’t appear entirely in opposition to her. He even admitted that if Loki wanted to take over, he wouldn’t have been stopped. <br/><br/>To her surprise, as she had a sinking feeling that the Captain would not want to be an ally, he suddenly offered an exchange, he’d show her what information he had on Loki, she just had to stay put. It was almost too good a deal to be true, but Thor had to comply regardless, she wasn’t exactly in a position of power here, at least not in terms of information, and knocking out peoples teeth at random wouldn’t earn her any favors either. <br/><br/>“Very well then. I will stay-” she began, then the screened wall panels suddenly lighting up and she saw Loki’s face, a gut reaction kicked in and she reached out, her hammer flying into her grasp and her wrist tilted back to chuck Mjolnir at the screen before she stopped herself. It was just a tv illusion … Loki had stirred quite a primal reaction, because she <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> needed to punch him again, but she switched it off just as quickly as it had flared up. She put the hammer down, slowly and carefully so she wouldn’t alarm anyone (at least, not alarm anyone any further). “Sorry” she apologised somewhat sheepishly. “We have quite a history … I will contain myself”.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://st1.skybet.com/static/content/casino/game_hlk50_Tile@2x_594x320.png""/></div><br/><br/>Banner just chuckled. ""You're the god of mischief, tricks and lies. Do I have a choice?"" He moved over to the pile, and searching through it picked up a shirt and a pair of... purple tracksuit bottoms. He inwardly groaned at the colour of them. What was with the purple? Seriously, did this guy have any fashion sense? He just looked at the <span class=""bb-i"">god</span> glad in green again and then understood what was going on, shrugging it off.<br/><br/>""I do appreciate the help. Perhaps in my solitude I can find a way out of this mess.""</div>"

""But frankly it would be a lot easier for both of us just to be able to walk up to you and ask you how you're going every now and then.""<br/><br/>There <span class=""bb-i"">were</span> a couple of alternatives that Loki could pursue, but for various reasons Loki didn't really wish to have to go down those roads if it could be helped; Bruce seemed like a decent enough guy who was just placed in a bad situation and even mentally torturing bad people for information was... a rather slippery slope. If you did it for a good reason you'll do it for a bad one and it was just quicker and easier never to start that sort of thing in the first place than to try and work out the minefield that was figuring out when doing so was considered 'morally acceptable'.<br/><br/>All things considered, doing so in this case was most likely a really, <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> bad idea anyway. <br/><br/>""No problem at all really.

While she was grateful for SHIELD's cooperation in her search, there was very little for her to go on. She learned that Loki had been on Midgard since the 1940s at least, a period known as the Second World War. Of course, Thor asked if the war was Loki's doing, but the SHIELD agent explained that it had not been Loki's fault, much to Thors surprise, though SHIELD had reason to believe Loki was involved in the war somewhat, though intel on that was also very sparse. Loki'd kept a low profile, much like Thor had since she'd arrived only a couple of months ago. Unlike Thor however, Loki attracted a lot less attention, Dwight's research had been a little <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> good to be true and Thor's alias ""Tara"" hadn't exactly been a water-tight alibi, her papertrail was a little too sparse to be believable.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I just cannot understand""</span> Thor said, pressing her fingers to her temples. <span class=""bb-b"">""This is Loki Laufeyson ... I watched him turn on Asgard, I watched him destroy a world.

And now he appears here and claims he seeks redemption""</span> <br/><br/>Thor felt tired, for the first time since Ragnarok, which was very long ago now. She felt weary and she hadn't even fought enough to break a sweat today, there was something about Loki that simultaneously filled her with destructive energy yet drained her at the same time. <br/><br/>The SHIELD agent, whose name was Jill, looked at Thor empathetically, at least she wasn't sweating and nervous anymore, she'd been shaking like a leaf while explaining the intel to Thor. Thor tried to appear as gentle and friendly as possible, but Jill was standing next to a Goddess, a being with legendary powers from a whole other realm. Like it or not, Thor was slightly intimidating albeit unintentionally.<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Before I was born, my parents were told that they would have a child who would become a great hero, it was my fate. I began life as a normal Asgardian, then I became a goddess and I fought alongside Odinson ... then the world ended. I failed to stop Ragnarok and now I find myself here ... and Loki is playing the hero.""</span><br/><br/>Had Thor ... Tarene, lost her way? Had she failed her destiny? Was this some cruel punishment for failing to save Asgard?<br/><br/>No. She chastised herself mentally, this was a test, and she would not let this situation best her. Loki was a trickster, he may have convinced those of Midgard that he was their champion, but Thor was of Asgard and she knew him for who and what he was. She'd die before letting him get away with his crimes. <br/><br/>First she had to find a way out of here, though she doubted they would let her walk out the door on a whim. The Captain wanted her to stay here, she complied thus far, and perhaps her time here would not stretch much further. She had more information on Loki, albeit only a little more, and she'd complied iwth the Captain's questioning, surely he must not need much more from her. If she could only find the whereabouts of Loki or the Hulk... <br/><br/>She knew smashing her way out was not a viable option, even though SHIELD may not believe her, she was the hero, not Loki, and it certainly wouldn't earn their trust for her to knock the place down, plus, she genuinely didn't want to injure anyone. <br/><br/>She found herself trapped, not by locked doors and walls, but by her conscience, so she would stay put for now, but the second she was back on her way after Loki, she'd be unrelenting in her pursuit and subsequent punishment. <br/><br/>Loki may have turned over a new leaf and redeemed himself, but to Thor, he was still the villain she knew back on Asgard and she was the hero ... then again, wasn't every villain a hero in their own mind? <br/><br/>[[replace Loki with SThor and BAM]] <br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://thats-normal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Hero.jpg""/></div></div>"

Instead, the Kree began to refurbish their old observation station that had been used as their base of operations centuries ago when they conducted their genetic experiments on humanity that resulted in the Inhumans.  Not only was Aton-4 (known by its inhabitants as Earth) attractive to the Kree due to its genetic potential, but also due to the aptness of the region for the creation of portals and wormholes.  Most of the galactic empires were sluggish in securing a foothold in this sector, believing that the sentient inhabitants of Aton-4 were too primitive to be of any concern.  However, the recent Inhumans incident has changed their minds.<br/><br/>	Due to what was seen as the ineptitude of the previous commanders who failed to defeat the Inhumans (although that battle was orchestrated by the Inhumans as a trap), the High Council of the Kree Empire decided to send one of the most celebrated heroes of the fourth and most recent Kree-Skrull war, Mahr-Vehl, to the Aton system (as the Kree called it) in order to coordinate the Kree’s efforts with one of the previous commanders, Yahn-Rogg.  While the Kree were hoping that Mahr-Vehl’s ‘winning streak’ would carry over into the Earthly affairs, the Kree never took his compassion into account.  Even before he had spent an entire year in the Aton system, Mahr-Vehl had grown attached to the humans.  Just as he did not see his soldiers as soulless pawns to be thrown into battle, Mahr-Vehl also saw that these humans were not just lab animals, but actual beings with feelings and dreams.  This is why the Kree failed with the Inhumans and as a result were recently humiliated by them in battle.<br/><br/>	One day, Mahr-Vehl was returning from his undercover observation assignment on Aton-4 when something did not seem right.  After checking the mission longs, Mahr-Vehl discovered that someone had launched one of their scout ships.  While there was no given reason for such usage of that vessel, it was apparently authorized by his co-commander, Yahn-Rogg.  Intending to confront his colleague for not consulting with him about making any type of contact with the humans, Mahr-Vehl searched for the commander’s location.  To his surprise, the on-board computer system revealed that Yahn-Rogg was currently inside the laboratory space onboard the Aton-9 orbital station.  Why would he be in that sector of the station?  Mahr-Vehl was the Xenobiologist in the contingent stationed on the Aton-9 outpost.<br/><br/>	Pulling up the live video-feed from that sector, Mahr-Vehl was abhorred by what he saw.  What were they thinking abducting one of the humans?  Did they not know that he wanted to avoid abductions at all costs?  However, while observing the Kree’s actions on the feed, Mahr-Vehl could tell that the behavior of his men was quite off.  His worse fears came true when he saw his men bend over in pain, as giant, brown insectoids called the Brood exploded out form their lifeless carcasses.  Now everything made sense.  The Brood were going to use the Kree-Psyche Magnetron to bestow godlike powers upon their human captive, intending for the host to eventually become the host for the new Brood Queen.  Using Aton-4 as their staging ground, this group of Brood would spread throughout the universe, infecting it faster than a raging fire burns a forest in the American West during a drought.<br/><br/>	The Kree-Psyche Magnetron was a device so powerful and dangerous that long ago, the Kree decided to hide it away on Aton-4, since at the time this sector of the Milky Way galaxy was considered a backwater and therefore the device would fall away into the stories of legends and myths.  The Psyche Magnetron rendered the thoughts and imagination of its wielder into reality.  If someone wanted to destroy a planet, he was just one thought away from sending a giant wave of energy to decimate the unprepared planet.  Almost anything was possible with this device.  If Mahr-Vehl had checked the station logs further, he would have realized that such usage of the scout ships had been happening long before he had arrived on the Aton-9 station!  Whether the Brood or the Kree were responsible for discovering the hiding place of the Kree-Psyche Magnetron, Mahr-Vehl knew that nothing good could come from it.<br/><br/>	After sending an emergency signal to the next nearest Kree outpost, alerting them about the Brood infestation, Mahr-Vehl armed himself in his Kree battle-suit.  The Kree scientist formed a fist with his hand, causing what seemed like some kind of energy gun to materialize from his sleek armor that protected his arm.  While he made his way down to the labs, Mahr-Vehl showed no mercy to these insectoid parasites, vaporizing them on sight.  After he exterminated the last of the Brood that was guarding the Kree-Psyche Magnetron, Mahr-Vehl turned his attention to retrieving the human from the machine.  However, while the Kree captain turned to deactivate the device, Yahn-Rogg, who was in the middle of the process of transforming into a Brood, rammed Mahr-Vehl into the machine, causing the energy from the Magnetron barrage him.<br/><br/>	Fortunately for Mahr-Vehl, his Kree armor’s shielding were sufficient enough to withstand the radiation, especially since the machine had not been set for the purpose of causing mass destruction on its own.  Quickly regaining his senses, Mahr-Vehl sprung back to his feet and prepared himself for another attack by Yahn-Rogg, or rather the Brood that had now replaced him.  The insectoid that had a few moments ago been a Kree warrior leapt at Mahr-Vehl.  However, this time the Kree captain was ready for Yahn-Rogg, blasting him with his energy weapon.<br/><br/>	“While revenge should never cloud your hearts, you had this coming, Yahn-Rogg.”  Mahr-Vehl turned back toward the Magnetron and its current occupant.  Mahr-Vehl was unsure what the Magnetron had done to the human captive.  Even after running tests, Mahr-Vehl could not find any residual effects.  Nor did he find any Brood embryos, which was a relief.  However, just as a precautionary action, sprinkled ground-up Ashanti crystals, the one known substance that will cure a Brood infection, over her.<br/><br/>	Mahr-Vehl had to plan out his next course of action carefully in order not to cause any more damage (physically or mentally) to this human specimen.  The inhabitants of Aton-4 had not yet had a public encounter with any alien race, let alone with the Kree.  Therefore, just dropping the female human off where she had originated would not be a good choice because she might claim that she was abducted by things called UFO’s and everyone would think she was crazy.  Therefore, this situation needed a more delicate approach.<br/><br/>	After he had spread the ground-up Ashanti crystals throughout the station by means of the ventilation system, Mahr-Vehl took the young human woman into the scout ship that was used to abduct her in the first place.

In fact, the whole processing seemed to go by relatively fast. After a brief psych test, which came back all clear, America was soon released. Of course she did have a talking to by several agents first. She was warned against getting herself in any more similar situations to what she had been involved in today; something America instantly agreed to. <br/><br/>Today had certainly not been a good day. Lives had been changed forever during her confrontation with the Hulk. Maybe even ruined. It had been hard for America to hold in her emotions during the ordeal, though as always, she kept a stern look upon her face at all times. It was never wise to cry in front of the enemy. Sure S.H.I.E.L.D. were supposed to be the good guys, but America had never come across a variant of the organisation during her time around the multiverse that didn’t have slightly shady methods. <br/><br/>It had grown dark by the time America had returned to the streets. Fortunately America had had the brilliant idea to play the “stranded hero” card with S.H.I.E.L.D so much that in the end they had agreed to pay for a hotel room for her for the night. America knew that it was simply a way to keep their eyes on her during her trip but that didn’t bother her in the slightest. Tonight she was sleeping with a roof above her head, and hell, did she need it! <br/><br/>While she would have preferred to drift off immediately, Amercia’s mind turned to her own mission as she made her way downtown towards the hotel. Due to the major inconvenience, she had become distracted, meaning that her target had managed to get away. Fortunately however, she had yet to detect them move off world, which meant that they were still here somewhere.  That gave her hope at least. But how would she find them? <br/><br/>That’s when her eyes fell upon a group of stereotypical looking punks as they walked by with their leather jackets and brightly coloured hair. One of them who was sporting a pink mohawk caught her attention and got her thinking. She didn't have any other choice, as it would seem that a telepath would be her only hope now. Besides, maybe this earth's version of the kid wasn't a complete and utter asshole. <br/></div>"

He looked over to the horizon where the sun was just starting to rise. ""It's a brand new day Loki-"" He turned to face the God. ""Things have been changing all over the world recently, you've probably noticed them more than I have. It's a different world than it was one year ago, with all these super-heroes and super powered people."" He let loose a sigh, focusing on keeping his heart rate low. As right now that was the only factor he could think of that would be able to be the cause of such a dramatic change in his body. <br/><br/>He turned around, searching through the tools and equipment Loki had given him. ""As a scientist I say whenever you have questions it is best to get them answered, I am tired however I'm not quite ready to sleep-"" While rummaging through the gear for the tent he came across a mallet to put the pins in. However when he saw it there was a flash as he saw a larger hammer come flying towards him. He raised his hands to cover his face and recoiled as he fell on his backside. Almost out of breath he shook his head. It was nothing, probably just part of some nightmare. He turned and gave Loki a re-assuring grin. ""Sorry, thought I saw a snake in the tools...""<br/><br/>Lying to the god of deceit, mischief and general misbehavior didn't seem like it would work, however he was trying to give off some feeling of sanity. He wasn't sure if he could trust him or not yet, though he knew he wasn't quite ready to push away the first person to offer him help since the accident. Not that Betty would have refused... though that was just... complicated. He felt a twinge in his heart as he pictured her face, smiling her hair flowing in the wind. The life he'd never have.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://img10.deviantart.net/629c/i/2014/205/5/9/falcap_by_rjn16-d7s4kaw.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Wilson stood in Fury's office. On the screen was Thor sitting in her room, speaking to the agent and pouring over information on Loki. ""Think she can be trusted Captain?"" Wilson took a second. ""Not really, at-least not yet.

There was a slight chuckle from both the men, less so from Fury than from Wilson in fact it was barely noticable and may not have happened at all, he just liked to think it did. ""I think it's important that we keep her in the loop about Loki however, and may even use her if major threats come up.

Sure he enjoyed obtaining new knowledge and broadening his mind, but when it came to the constant examinations, bullying, and the multitude of pressure that school puts on young minds, Bobby wasn’t too keen. Fortunately this had changed significantly when he first arrived at the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning, a safe sanctuary for mutants where equality was encouraged and the students found themselves educated in fun and engaging manner. That is, except for history. <br/><br/>“Mr Drake, I don’t believe that it is currently naptime.”<br/><br/>Bobby Drake shot up in his seat, snapping open his eyes, as Professor Xavier’s voice rang through his mind. Evidently he had fallen asleep again. Bobby was about to blurt out some sort of apology when he noticed the empty room around them. Turning, he gazed around at the abandoned desks, his face displaying clear signs of confusion. It would seem that other than him, the only person in this room was Xavier, who moved about at the front of the room, packing away his things. <br/><br/>“What’s going on?” Bobby asked, turning to the Professor. He turned as Bobby spoke, rotating his wheelchair to face the young mutants. “Looks almost apocalyptic in here.”<br/><br/>At the word <span class=""bb-i"">apocalyptic</span>, The Professor froze for a second. Finally he moved his hand, massaging himself between his eyes, thinking.<br/><br/>“Everyone else would be out having lunch.” The man spoke, his English accent evident. “I thought that waking you near the end of your lunch break would be a suitable punishment, don’t you think?”<br/><br/>Bobby smirked at the remark, although before he could reply, Charles Xavier grunted in pain, clutching his head. <br/><br/>“Professor?” Bobby stammered, rising to his feet. “Professor, what’s wrong?”<br/><br/>Instantly the Professor seemed to relax. Breathing deeply, he rose back up in his chair, rubbing his temple. He did this for a few seconds while Bobby proceeded to ramble on about whether he was ok. As if finally remembering Bobby’s presence, Xavier turned and stared him straight in the eye. <br/><br/>“It’s Magneto.”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>“Shouldn’t you be in bed, Mr Drake?”<br/><br/>Bobby dropped his spoon in shock at the sound of the old, British Professor, resulting in the chunk of ice cream he had been about to eat to spill across the table top. Recovering fairly quickly, Bobby scrambled to clean it up, attempting to scoop it up with the spoon, although he only succeeded in causing even more of a mess. Giving an apologetic smile to the obviously bemused Professor, he decided to give up, sitting back in his seat. <br/><br/>“Sorry Professor, I couldn’t sleep.” He sighed, his eyes scanning his arms for a watch. Remembering that he had left it up in his room, he looked back up. “What time is it anyway?”<br/><br/>Still smiling, Charles Xavier wheeled forward, moving his wheelchair up to the kitchen table. He was currently wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, which made Bobby worry that he had somehow awoken the man from his slumber. A wink from Xavier however told Bobby that the Professor knew what he was thinking.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry, much like yourself, I have been up late pondering too.” His reply calm and collective. “As for the time, I believe it is some time after 1am.”<br/><br/>Bobby gave the man a nod in return. A silence spread across the two of them for a few seconds, giving the teenager time to reach for his spoon once more and attempt to chisel off another chunk of ice-cream from the tub. <br/><br/>“I know what you’re thinking, Bobby.” Xavier broke the silence. “What happened today with the Brotherhood wasn’t your fault.”<br/><br/>Stopping in his tracks, Bobby once more let go of his spoon, leaving it suspended upwards in the ice-cream tub. <br/><br/>“I let them escape. What use am I against a guy who can fucking control metal? All I can do is freeze things and that doesn’t even do anything with fucking John being there! I’m useless! I’m a joke!”<br/><br/>His fists slammed down into the table, ice erupting from the points of contact. By now Bobby had risen from his seat, his voice raising in volume as he did so. Tears began to stream down his face. <br/><br/>That was when he felt a comforting hand on his arm. Steadying his breathing, Bobby turned to find Charles sat in his wheelchair next to him, gazing up with a reassuring look on his face.<br/><br/>“Robert Louis Drake. Everybody likes you, Bobby. They always have. You’re a fun guy. Honestly, you’re what holds us all together.” Xavier took a moment to pause, moving back around the table once more. “Out of all my students, former and current, you have always had the most untapped potential. All you can do is freeze things? Dear boy, you have the potential to do so much more, you have no idea! Bobby, you need to stop looking into the past and begin looking into the future. With the world we live in now, we have no room for untapped potential.”<br/><br/>Bobby stood in silence as the Professor turned to leave.<br/><br/>“What should I do?”<br/><br/>Xavier stopped in the doorway, his eyes still ahead of him. <br/><br/>“Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.”<br/><br/>“Oh, is that all?”<br/><br/>Bobby withdrew back into his seat calmly, his mind racing through all that had happened. He looked again to where the Professor had left. Smiling he thought back to when he had first arrived at the Institute. Everything had been so new and scary. He had been so alone that first night, until he had found himself in a similar position to where he was now. Taking advice from the Professor while feasting on ice-cream. While so much had changed since then, it was nice to know that some things had remained the same. <br/><br/>“Amazing, huh?” Bobby murmured to himself, pulling his spoon free from the tub. “I can do amazing.”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Salem Center. It had been over a week since the X-men’s confrontation with Magneto and his so-called Brotherhood of Mutants, as well as a week since Bobby’s <span class=""bb-i"">inspirational</span> speech from the professor.  By now, Bobby had calmed down, having taken the week to relax. Hence why he was currently in Salem Center, on a date. Well, he was meant to be on a date. Sadly the guy had stood Bobby up. He couldn’t blame him. It happened a lot whenever people discovered his mutant abilities. During their first date, he had been forced to ice up against a mugger. Despite saving his life, it would seem that it had also been their last date. <br/><br/>In a glum manner, Bobby strolled the streets, typing into his phone. <br/><br/>“You two getting married yet?” The text from Angelica read. <br/><br/>Bobby’s reply came in the form of a frowning emoji.<br/><br/>“What happened?” This one was followed by a series of frowning emojis too.<br/><br/>“Didn’t turn up.”<br/><br/>“Are you ok?” <br/><br/>“I’ll be fine. Getting ice cream. Be back soon, x.” <br/><br/>Sliding the phone into his pocket, Bobby turned a corner, moving through a short side street. The sound of a bottle rattling made him stop briefly. Shaking his head disapprovingly at his cowardliness, he continued. He was half way down the street when the whistling started. Ominous whistling. Now that certainly was a cause of panic for Bobby. Bobby froze in his tracks, looking behind him towards the source of the sound. <br/><br/>A group of hooded men turned the corner, entering the street. They seemed a rowdy bunch, with the man leading them, whom Bobby assumed was their leader, being the one who was whistling. Bobby backed away as they approached, the men seemingly emitting a series of cheers and “woops” at the sight of him. The young mutant knew exactly who they were. <span class=""bb-b"">Purifiers</span>. Reverend William Stryker’s strikeforce against mutant population, the Purifiers are a group of religious extremist who literally believe killing mutants is God’s wish. The thought made Bobby sick.<br/><br/>Turning, he attempted to run, only to find his path blocked by even more Purifiers approaching. Panicking, Bobby watched as they closed in, with several of the group reloading what appeared to be a selection of high-tech weaponry. Bobby gulped. He was doomed.<br/><br/>That was when a though crossed his mind. Bobby knew exactly what to do. What was it? It was something Xavier had said to him the other night. <span class=""bb-i"">Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.</span><br/><br/>Clenching his fists, Bobby stepped forward. Breathing deeply, he concentrated, focussing on all the moisture in the air around him. Bobby was an X-man. He had mutant abilities before he even began to shave. He had gone toe to toe against some of the world’s most powerful mutants. He was always told that he was a man of untapped potential. But now? Don’t you dare ever call him that again!<br/><br/>Slamming his hands down on the ground, the temperature dropped immediately. Ice shot out of the ground all around them as frozen shapes rose from the ground. The shapes surrounded Bobby, blocking him from the first shots from the Purifier’s as they fired in confusion. The frozen shapes seemed to shift in shape and size, growing snowy legs and arms. Bobby smiled to himself as the ice golems formed around him.<br/><br/>“Amazing.” He said to no one in particular. <br/></div>"

Maybe not in the sense that a human's body started to lose its strength and degrade old, but for a moment he indulged the pleasure of feeling the weight of his years. ""You are absolutely right there Bruce. It might take human's a few years to grasp an idea but once you have a firm hold on it you guys just run with it.""<br/><br/>Turning around in order to continue the conversation, Bruce's mention of a snake caused Loki to instinctly take a step back, a flash of primal terror crossing his face for but an instant before it vanished again. Maybe the moment had never happened at all? <br/><br/>With the offer to ask his questions, a cool and collected Loki simply asked the only one that mattered at the moment.

Despite her massive height, she looked somewhat smaller trapped in the small room, shoulders slumped in disappointment. Jill was having a coffee with Thor, shaking like a leaf which came as little surprise given how easily Thor could snap her in half not that that was likely to happen. Though the sight of the fallen former Goddess was quite sad, Jill's visible nervousness was a tad comical. Fury kept a straight face, he couldn't appear overly empathetic since he didn't even know Thor's cause, at least, not as well as he'd like, Loki was still a mystery to him, and Thor, despite her blunt explanation, was still a mystery as well. She could have made up her entire story, even though it appeared as if she couldn't possibly formulate a cohesive lie given her genuine ignorance of human technology and society. <br/><br/>""Thor?"" Fury said, her head shot up to look at Fury.<br/>""Have you found out more about Loki?"" she asked.<br/>Fury shook his head, they'd told her enough, they'd shown her that SHIELD were monitoring Loki, they couldn't give away all their information, they'd need to hang onto what they had in case she needed to be called back in again. If they told her about Loki now, they'd have nothing left to bargain with her again and Fury wasn't prepared to let her go entirely, she could be a valuable ally, she'd already showed just how powerful she was though he suspected Thor was even more powerful than she let on.  <br/><br/>""We've been trying to figure out what to do with you."" he explained. <br/>""Do you seek to keep me here much longer? I came here of my own free will, but I am beginning to feel as if I'm being held captive"" she said, folding her arms over her chest, she didn't want to resort to intimidation, but she was prepared to go there. <br/>""We're prepared to let you go, we're well aware if you wanted to leave we may not possess the man-power to stop you"" he admitted, of course that was a massive maybe, perhaps they could have gunned her down if it came to it, it wasn't worth the risk.<br/>""I'd hoped I wouldn't have to resort to such extreme measures"" Thor responded.<br/>""And we're glad you didn't. We've contacted Dwight and we're dropping you off at his apartment."" Fury offered no explanation of why she was suddenly allowed to go when ... well she hadn't done much really. <br/>Thor prevented herself from quizzing Fury about why she was suddenly being let go but decided against it, for fear he'd change his mind and she'd resort to ... <span class=""bb-i"">dangerous</span> measures to escape at a later point. <br/><br/>Finally, Thor was back to a remotely familiar environment, Dwights place, slumped over his coffee table eating a hastily ordered take out, though for once, Thor wasn't devouring her meal earnestly, she was poking some chop suey with a fork and showed little interest in eating right away. <br/>""What happened there? In SHIELD?"" Dwight asked, neatly manipulating some noodles with a pair of chopsticks. ""I know I haven't known you all that long but, I've never seen you play with your food, you usually just eat it.""<br/>Thor sighed ""I told them what they wanted, they told me what they knew about Loki, then they just left me in a room and I had time to think.""<br/>""What did you think about?"" Dwight asked. <br/>""I thought about my fate ... About Loki ... all that he took from me... They think he is a hero here ... He took my world ... everything..."" <br/>""And you're gonna let him spoil your appetite too? Didn't have you down for a quitter Tara"" Dwight retorted.<br/>Thor perched her elbows on the table. ""No!"" she said indignantly, stabbing the now-sorta-cold take-out on her plate and taking a mouthful. <br/>""See, I knew you wouldn't quit that easily. Now finish your dinner and we'll go do some googling""<br/><br/>Thor smiled to herself. Humans were strange indeed, but she admired them, at least, she admired Dwight and others like him. He was a truly good friend, if he wasn't so incredibly fragile and dreadfully uncoordinated, he'd have made a great Asgardian warrior. There was a fire in his heart, she could tell.</div>"

Unfortunately, there was nothing interesting currently running on the air, so Peter had to settle for the Daily Bugle Communications news. Now he would have to listen to Jameson bash on Spider-Man for the next couple minutes. Heck, if Peter had lived in the 60’s, Jameson probably would have accused Spider-Man of assassinating JFK, even though the only Spidey sightings would have been in New York City.<br/><br/>	“So, any preferences?” Peter offered the remote to his ‘blind’ date, hoping she would at least have something in mind other than listening to triple J’s mudslinging. Heck, Peter would almost prefer watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians. He would never purposely view that show, but if MJ wanted to watch it, Peter, depending on how much venom the editor of the Daily Bugle was spewing, might relent to that television show.<br/><br/>	“No, this is fine.”  Mary Jane, however, was focusing her attention on her iPhone, sliding her up and down the touchscreen as she scrolled up and down whatever she was looking at.  “Apparently they have some new footage of Spider-Man”.  Her response sent a shockwave of terror down Peter’s spine.  Did Aunt May just set him up with someone who agreed with Jay Jonah Jameson?  What are the odds?<br/><br/>	“You don’t, um, listen to Jameson, do you?”  Peter rolled his eyes in his mind, wondering why he would ask such a thing.<br/><br/>	“Oh, no.  DBC happens to be the only network that gets somewhat quality shots of Spider-Man.  He’s kind of the ‘in’ thing now.  Not quite Justin Bieber levels, but at least Spidey’s masculinity hasn’t been disputed.”  MJ held up her phone to show what she was talking about.  Peter, now embarrassed that he did not see it earlier, saw that her iPhone had a red case on the back with a black spider web plastered on top of it.<br/><br/>	Peter exhaled a giant sigh of relief in his mind.  At least she was not like the numerous other Americans who 	blindly believe the poison and libel of J. Jonah Jameson.  Peter did not know how to take the ‘Spidey is the in thing’.  He has not noticed anything of that sort, but at the same time, why would Peter ever want to know what teenage girls were interested in?  Maybe this apparent trend is showing one of the most common clichés of teenagers: tell them not to do something (or that something is bad – like Jameson is about Spider-Man) and they will try as hard as possible to do it.<br/><br/>	“Well, if you want to see pictures and video of Spider-Man, I probably have some that will be infinitely better in quality.”<br/><br/>	“Really?”  MJ gave Peter an expression that said ‘do you think I’m dumb or gullible’.<br/><br/>	“I take some pictures for the Daily Bugle every once in a while.  I post them anonymously, obviously.   Don’t want Spider-Man’s foes knocking at my door thinking that I could give away his location.”<br/><br/>	Therefore, the two teens jumped off the living room couch and headed upstairs towards Peter’s room.  However, when Aunt May saw the two kids walking up the stairs, she decided that she needed to give them a warning.<br/><br/>	“No Hanky-Panky, Peter.  Do I make myself clear?”  Peter’s face grew red at his aunt’s outdated comment.  Does anyone even refer to it as ‘hanky-panky’ anymore?<br/><br/>	“Don’t worry, Aunt Anna!”  MJ called back, “I’ll go easy on your friend’s nephew!”  Mrs. Watson’s niece rolled her eyes and continued to follow Peter upstairs.  Once they were in his room, Peter booted up his desktop.  However, once the background loaded up, an image of himself along with Gwen showed up.  Peter had not anticipated that he would be showing his room to his blind date, let alone showing her anything on his computer.<br/><br/>	“Sorry about that,” Peter said, as he hastily right-clicked on the screen to change the background.  “I haven’t been able to let go yet.”<br/><br/>	“Don’t worry about it.”  Mary Jane gave Peter a smile, “My aunt filled me in on the details.  You don’t have to show me those pictures.  I’ll understand.”<br/><br/>	“It’s not a problem.”  Peter replied, double-clicking on a folder icon on the desktop.  After clicking through various folders, Peter finally opened the folder that contained his Spider-Man portfolio.<br/><br/>	“Wow,” MJ marveled at the images on the screen, “You must know him to get these pictures.  Does he tip you off or something?”<br/><br/>	“Yeah, something like that.”<br/><br/>	“Could you <span class=""bb-i"">please</span> talk him into coming to see me someday?”<br/><br/>	Peter paused for a moment, thinking about his response.  Was this really happening?  Was he <span class=""bb-i"">actually</span> competing with himself for the same girl?  What was this world coming to?  Things were so simple (relatively speaking) when Gwen was around.  To Gwen, Peter and Spider-Man were one and the same.  But was that situation safe?<br/><br/>	“I don’t know, Spider-Man is a busy man.”  Peter began to say, but when MJ gave him puppy eyes and a little frown, he relented.  “Fine, I’ll see what I can do.  I’ll let you know when he’s available, if he agrees to do it.”<br/><br/>	“Thank you <span class=""bb-i"">so</span> much!”  MJ embraced Peter, “What could I do to make up for this?”<br/><br/>	“Well, my aunt probably would have my head on a silver platter if we don’t get together again, so what about a second date?”<br/><br/>	“Tiger, I think both of our aunts have that card up their sleeves.”<br/></div>"

Captain, feel free to ignore Thor or call her out on her bullshit!!! I can edit if its not cool -but please wait till Im not hungover which will probably happen in the future!))<br/><br/>With renewed resolve, Thor sat down on a chair beside Dwight as he tapped away on his slightly outdated desktop computer on a desk that was groaning just a little too loudly under the weight of books and papers and nick-nacks. Her determination, at least initially, was overwhelming, and she asked numerous questions about the inner workings of the computer and google. Dwight tried, with the patience of a saint, to explain, but it was like trying to explain nuclear power to a toddler, most of the concepts were largely beyond Thor, though she did pick up a little and seemed to be grasping the general idea of how the computer worked, even if it was just a little. It was evident from the start that she'd never become an elite hacker, but at this stage, Dwight thought that maybe, just maybe, if she could grasp this, he could teach her how to use a cell phone and how to drive a car. It was ambitious but why not. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Most of the media didn't arrive until the building started to collapse, and since the Hulk was inside the building when Loki pulled his disappearing act ... only people inside of the building would have seen it. So we won't hear about that until eyewitnesses come forward.""</span> Dwight explained.<br/>Thor nodded and added <span class=""bb-b"">""And those who were close enough to be eye-witnesses are being treated for their injuries, it will take some time for them to come forward.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Exactly. But even if we hear from them ... that doesn't answer where they went, and if the Hulk is anywhere with a significant population, then it would be all over the net just like these stories... Even if we did discover the Hulk's location ... are you <span class=""bb-i"">sure</span> Loki would be there too? I mean ... you don't know what the Hulk thing is, much less its powers.""</span> Dwight said, since he was the logical one of the team.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm positive Loki is with him. Loki is a teleporter, a shape shifter. If the sneaky bastard hadn't turned himself into a mouse I'd have beaten him within an inch of his life, we'd know where the Hulk is and I'd have stopped him too. He and the beast vanished after he tricked me with an illusion of himself running from the battle... He'll not trick me again once we find him.""</span><br/>Dwight nodded slowly. The Hulk, from what he'd seen, appeared to be fuelled by rage, would it have come up with a plan to vanish? Not likely, plus, surely it owuld have vanished as soon as America and Thor threw it around a bit. Plus, given Loki's history and abilities ... all the clues pointed towards Loki and the Hulk escaping together. He couldn't argue against Thor on this line of evidence. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Okay, lets go over what we know.""</span> Dwight said, taking out a note pad to jot down the facts they were sure of. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Loki and the Hulk vanished together, and wherever they are, the Hulk is either contained, or somehow ... concealed, since ther have been no sightings or reports ... or they are somewhere that is uninhabited, or incredibly remote.""</span> <br/>Thor nodded. That narrowed the search in one way, but also expanded it infinitely in another. <span class=""bb-b"">""So you can use your computer to find all the uninhabited places on Midgard yes?""</span> Thor asked.<br/>Dwight nodded cautiously, <span class=""bb-b"">""I can, but searching them on foot would be an almost impossible task. Earth- <span class=""bb-i"">Midgard</span> is quite large, and there are lots of different places that fit the description of remote. If I could, I'd do a satellite search, but Im not SHIELD, I don't have teh technology or the skills to do that.. If on the other hand, Loki has somehow contained the Hulk ... I have even fewer ideas where, and how he'd do it.""</span><br/>Thor straightened a little in her chair. <span class=""bb-b"">""So we're back to square one essentially aren't we...""</span> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Somewhat, but ... even if the Hulk is contained, I don't think Loki would bring it somewhere densely populated. I'm ruling out all major cities, because Loki's not stupid, if the Hulk got out again, he'd be spotted in an instant. Contained or not, they're somewhere remote, its just a matter of where.""</span> Dwight argued. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""So what have you got then?""</span> Thor said, it felt like they were getting a little closer, though now she was beginning to feel rather tired, this was a lot to take in and process. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Theres a lot of mountains, deserts, rain forests, plenty of little islands in the Pacific, and the entire arctic circle ... Given Loki's heritage, I think he'd be fine in the arctic circle but I'm not sure how the big Green Bean would cope.""</span> Dwight answered. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""SHIELD can search those areas witht heir satellites and find him almost immediately can't they.""</span> Thor concluded.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Well I can't say for sure, but ... Well I'd be willing to bet on it, not that they'd let either of us access that technology anyway. What are you implying Tara?""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm thinkin' I'll have to pay SHIELD a visit pretty soon.""</span> she said ... though she wondered how she'd get their attention, they didn't exactly give her a phone number or mailing address.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You don't know where they are or how to contact them""</span> Dwight said drily. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""But I do know they are monitoring me, and if they aren't, I'll just have to get their attention.""</span> she replied cryptically. <span class=""bb-b"">""It's pretty late, I'd better go back to my place. Thanks for the help ... I really don't know how I can repay you ... You're a good friend.""</span><br/><br/>Dwight was saddened, and a little worried to see her go. Despite her unpredictable arrival, and the fact she came literally from another world, Dwight had grown somewhat used to her and understood her, she was pretty predictable most of the time, and for the first time since he'd gotten to know how, he was scared for her, and a little scared of her. He hadn't anticipated her to be so consumed with vengeance when she was normally so pleasant. Maybe he'd been naive and blinded by the lure of near infinite Asgardian-knowledge when he'd seen her, that he'd forgotten that she was an incredibly dangerous Goddess of Legend. Now he'd seen her, not as a lost stranger from Asgard or a technologically-inept and unusually tall friend, but as the woman she had once been, a deadly battle maiden, a Goddess on the warpath. <br/><br/>Thor on the other hand never went home. She went on her own search. It was unusual, since she was a warrior not an academic, but her search, based on the hastily explained nuggets of stories that Jill had given her, she knew Loki was somehow invovled in the Second World War and possibly the Cold War (at least ... he was around during the Cold War but his actions during that period were still a mystery to Thor). She ended up in the War Memorial museum, digging through the archives, tripping the security alarm of course but she quickly handled that situation by  blowing out the power in the entire museum with her thunder powers. By the time the security guards had scrambled to find her inside the darkened museum, she'd grabbed them both with ease and told them to restore the power and let her do her research. She hadn't threatened to kill them, but ... she hadn't implied that she wouldn't kill them if she had to (not that she would though, but it wouldn't do to let them think she wasn't going to harm them, if they knew, they wouldn't have done as she said). Finally, with some of the power restored, at least enough for her to flip through the archived news papers and WW2 documents, she resumed her search, the 2 security guards KO'd on the floor by the fusebox. She was sure they'd wake up by the time she was finished, hopefully not sooner. <br/><br/>Did she feel guilty about it? A tad, but Loki was a dangerous fugitive, the ends justified the means, besides, no one died, worst case scenario, the two guards would have a dreadful headache tomorrow. The fact she hadn't murdered anyone didn't exactly nullify the fact that she'd committed an act of breaking and entering, property damage and assaulting 2 security officers ... but no one died, that would be Thor's entire defence. <br/><br/>Only Dwight believed her about how dangerous Loki was, and even then, he didn't understand the gravity of the situation, and she didn't want him to get in much deeper, for fear he'd end up on Loki's hit list if the God of Mischief ever found out Dwight was involved, she had to do her own search. She learned more about Loki's movements during the war, and even a few suspicious things during the Cold War that she thought Loki may have had a hand in, although none of it she could prove indefinitely, Loki was a shapeshifter and liar, it was hard to get any solid evidence on him, but she did get information, and leads. Nothing that would lead her to Australia where Loki actually was, at least, she hadn't found anything yet. Loaded with more information, though she doubted she'd learned anything SHIELD didn't already have a 10 page document about, she left via the fire exit door (which she'd busted open when she broke in) and walked down the street, it was still rather dark, though the sun would rise soon, and she'd find some way of accessing satellite imagery. Surely SHIELD weren't the only ones with the technology. Her next stop would be the local government buildings, they'd have more documents, or at the veyr least, they could probably tell her where she could find satellites for her search. The good news about this portion of her search was that it probably wouldn't involve as much breaking and entering since it was almost morning already. <br/><br/>The following morning Dwight still hadn't heard from Thor, but he didn't wake up (with a creak in his neck from falling asleep at his desk researching isntead of going to bed) to the sound of police banging on his door or SHIELD agents climbing through the fire-escape. It was calm ... for now. He hastily showered and dressed himself, he couldn't afford to waste any time, he was both intrigued and terrified by Loki ... the fact he was here. His mother always said curiosity would kill him, he was beginning to think perhaps she'd been onto something, he was certainly playing with fire ... or thunder it seemed. </div>"

Magic could be quite a taxing art if you weren't careful with how you employed it and it spoke highly of Loki's abilities with it that he had been able to throw  as many spells (Some of which were rather large scale) around as he had been in quick succession without suffering the ill effects of the drain; A bit of rest to recover through was highly welcomed.<br/><br/>As Bruce gave a rather abridged version of events of how he came to be, it was clear that Loki was intrigued by this 'Gamma Energy' that the man spoke of. While he didn't understand what it was <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">yet</span></span>, a part of him couldn't help but kick himself for missing the chance to bankroll its research himself. Maybe once Banner was set up properly they could try and set something up... It was an interesting thought. <br/><br/>The smile that appeared on the former God of Mischief's face at the mention of the 'Norse' gods could have made the sunrise look a little dimmer then normal. ""I'm going to admit, I never thought that we would be remembered at all after Ragnarok. True I knew that <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> would raise from the ashes once it was all said and done but for so many of our stories to be remembered..."" Clicking his tongue a little, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself ""Even to this day those doing research on me can't seem to agree on my motives or if I was good or bad. That's the kind of legacy that any trickster would kill for.""<br/><br/>The chuckles died down a little as Loki looked down at the ground in deep thought. He had never told anyone his side of events before or after 'The End of the World' and he didn't exactly feel in the mood to tell the whole story if only because it was quite a long tale. Still, a part of him felt little sharing a little insight into how things had gone down and why... ""Bruce, beware of those who can see the future. Those who can see what is to come often have their own agenda's that they desire to push as they 'guide' others. By the time myself and Odin had discovered this there was far, <span class=""bb-i"">far</span> to much bad blood between us for me to have wanted to stop. Even back then I could see that I could have stopped my campaign to end Asgard and sided with Odin to stop the end of the world; During the final assault I could see quite clearly how we might have held out had things been different. But by then to much damage had been done, to much anger and pride on both of our parts to change my mind.""<br/><br/>There had been a lot of time to think about things after the fact... even more so due to his <span class=""bb-i"">reward</span> for his part in things. There had been much that had happened that he regretted in hindsight. Letting out a sigh, he seemed to buck up a little as he looked up at Bruce. ""Of course, I was as surprised as anyone that I got a second chance to return to the worlds proper and you can bet I was surprised at how far humans had come since then. It was actually mildly terrifying how quickly things could get out of hand from the littlest of things if you weren't careful. Did a favor for the people who freed me and returned me to Midgard back in nineteen fourteen and you can still see the echos <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> left behind..."" <br/><br/>Loki left it at that. He was sure that Bruce was smart enough to connect those dots together.            </div>"

He was exhausted, it was 1... no 2 in the morning and Tony didn't have much time to get things just right before the leer jet was sending him out to Vegas for the Electronic Consumers Conference.  It was the first time the Stark company had ever gone, either in its past form or the new vastly improved Stark Technology, in Tony's eyes at least.  To this day he has no idea how his father would take to him doing so much different.  Sure the family business was in weaponry, and his grandfather was quite proud of their work.  Martin Stark though as much as he worked hard to keep things running smoothly, and as well as he could keep the facade up.  The idea of fueling wars always made him cringe a little, it was something Tony only ever seemed to notice, but it was there.  <br/><br/>As the gloves were finally remote deactivated Tony went around the security barrier and examined the glove.  Slipping an arm in it felt perfect inside, not too hot from the over running of the thruster.   Slipping the glove back off Tony rubbed his eyes hard as his body began to really lay it on thick that it was getting late and he needed to get some kind of shut eye before the flight at... shit it was in 6 hours.  Tony felt like a mess, jeans and a wife beater, his hair just felt sloppy.  First things first he needed to sleep and then clean up before the flight.  The C.E.C. was going to be so very important for the company.  It was by all means a re-introduction into everything the company stands for from here on in.  First things first though for Stark... sleeeeeeeeep.<br/><br/>New York City, NY<br/>La Guardia Airport<br/><br/>Tony Stark thankfully not only got a couple hours to rest up, but a showering and changing into some fresh clothes later (complete with awesome Bruce Lee DJ t-shirt) and Tony Stark was good to go.  As the limo pulled up to the runway, with the leer jet in waiting Tony Stark smiled from behind his shades as the limo's door opened for him.  Waiting him at the door to the jet was a large, almost intimidating black man in mass alone even with a nice suit on.  Military trained and primed, James joined the company back when his father wanted someone with inside military knowledge to ensure weapons would not only be better but soldiers would have better understanding and function with them better.  After Tony came in James pleaded to keep his position fearing for his personal life.  Tony though never once considered dismissing the man.  He couldn't bring himself too even if he had too.  He wanted someone like James around, someone who wouldn't let him do something stupid.<br/><br/>“Please dear God tell me that's not what you're planning on wearing tonight during the presentation.”  James already sounded like a worried mom over Tony which made him chuckle.  “Oh no I was planning on underwear and tube socks on my hands.  It'll be pink underwear I'll wear too, shows I'm caring.”  Tony's snark, even with him a bit sleep depraved, was still sharp as ever.  “No seriously James I got something in my luggage all pressed and ready to go.  I'm just not going to wear it until I have too.”  Tony's disdain for suits was something everyone in the company knew.  Unless he was speaking to someone from another company or some other situation that called for one Tony just wore whatever to work.  Suits were too stuffy, they made him feel like he wasn't him.  Like he was just pretending to be someone who he couldn't even imagine being.<br/><br/>James to his credit just sighed a bit, quietly and mostly to himself.  He was used to the Stark sarcasm, but getting it from someone half his age made it so much worse.  As Tony and James boarded the jet, the steward was collecting Tony's luggage from the trunk of the limo.  Which Tony watched from a window as he pulled off his shades.  He was buckling into his seat when he heard James give a 'hmmm'.  “Tony how much sleep did you get last night?”  He finally asked seeing the baggage in Tony's eyes.  Tony glanced up, busted.  He held his hands up defensively.  “Sorry I know, just been busy working on something.”  Tony immediately regretted mentioning, even as vaguely as he did, the Iron Man project.  Tony just waved his hands, “Just don't even ask, we'll talk about it when I think its ready.  Just a personal thing.”  James shrugged and folded his arms as he leaned back into his seat.  “Just so long as it doesn't cause massive explosions.”  James casually said, which strangely only got a meek chuckle from Tony.<br/><br/>Las Vegas, NV<br/>Electronics Consumers Conference<br/><br/>“YEAH!  KILLED IT!”  Tony Stark put his hand up high as several other hands slapped it hard.  The showcase presentation was a complete success.  Already tech blogs were raving about the new handheld gaming system, plasma TVs, and smart phones with unbreakable plexiglass screens.  Then again Tony Stark knew it was all going to be a success.  Success was something he needed for the company badly.  The company needed big smash hits to be able to rebound after the opening troubles.  Sure Tony Stark knew the road as CEO of his family's enterprise was not going to be easy, but turns out investors REALLY don't like the idea of an 18 year old fresh out of High School not only running a major corporation, but completely changing said corporation's main supplies and image.  Said young out of high school kid had a lot on his plate, and knew failure would mean the end of the now third generation ran business.<br/><br/>As Tony Stark got high five after high five, finally adjusting and loosening up the skinny black tie he had on with his grey shirt and black slacks.  “Ah, man I tell ya, The Geto Boys said it best.  Damn it feels good to be a gangsta!”  Tony Stark beamed.  “I'm fairly sure CEOs aren't people who should be quoting The Geto Boys.”  Tony Stark turned to see the larger James Rhodes.  A close friend of his father turned executive of daily operations after Tony put himself in charge.  “Whatever, bunch of haters I tell ya.”  Tony stated with a  dismissive wave of his hand.<br/><br/>“Well either way Tony, we still have a few business matters left with the show before I would call it a complete success.”  James Rhodes, for as much as Tony both liked and hated it, was always extremely attentive when it came to the details.  “The show was great, but I think Stark Technology is really going to need its big thing to really put it over the edge.”  Tony paused after getting a can of soda from a catering table to glance back at James.  “Wait hold up seriously?  I know I wasn't the only one who heard the crowd screaming like pre-teens at a...”  Tony Stark realized he didn't realize who was the big it singer right now.  “Whoever the Hell concert these days.  Beiber still right?  No wait uh whatever point is they loved it.  What the Hell kind of big thing are they talking about?”  <br/><br/>Quickly Tony Stark pulled up his smart phone, instantly seeing that while a lot of sites were praising the presentation and items the company had planned.  There was a consciousness against a really big item to put the company on the map.  Tony's joy had dampened a bit as he flipped through the twitter posts, facebook posts, everything on the web about the show that all seemingly said the same thing.  “What the Hell?  What did I need to juggle chainsaws while humming AC/DC to make these people happy?”  Tony sighed irritated before a thought dawned on him.  “Wait!  I might have it.  Rhodes schedule a press conference at HQ.  Next week, early afternoon at the best.”  Already Tony saw the press conference in his head and could almost smell the big publicity.  Leaving him scratching his chin with a hand, quietly muttering to himself “They want a showstopper?  I'll give them a showstopper...” <br/><br/>New York City, NY<br/>Stark Estate<br/><br/>“So promise me that until the press conference what I'm about to show you NEVER leaves this room.”  Tony had taken James to the room where the Iron Man project had been made through blood, sweat, and one or two tears Tony is too prideful to admit too.  Sure James had seen the place plenty of times, knowing the family as he did.  But with the build up there was still something to it he was tense about.  “Yeah no its fine Tony, can we just get on with this?  You have a dinner tonight with the Japanese people about the potential merger with their company.”  James pointed out, as he gestured to his wrist watch.  <br/><br/>Tony smirked as he shook his head, “Oh trust me we'll have time.”  Tony stretched out his arms looking up to the ceiling of the room.  “JARVIS?  Initiate project Iron Man.”<br/><br/>The robotic arms of the room were his father's creation, all of which helped out with his own creations.  Now however they brought down a wide array of armor pieces.  Red, yellow, and black in color as they snapped in at points and slowly covered Tony Stark's body.  The chest's opening perfectly fit the reactor core in Tony as it glowed a bit brighter from the armor giving it that little more work.  Soon the helmet latched onto the back of Tony's head and snapped around and closed.  The armor hummed to life as Tony's screen caught the image of James in front of him with a staggered jaw.  “I know I know, look James if you'd like I can have JARVIS get you a cup for all that drool about to come out.”  Tony's voice echoed off of the small speaker in the armor that let him speak from inside the helmet.<br/><br/>James remained too stunned to speak for a moment, finally after placing a hand onto his forehead he shook his head and spoke.  “Tony... Tony.  What's been the big point of the company change?”<br/><br/>“To rid the company's warmongering image?”<br/><br/>“So... how is our big showstopper suppose to be... a suit of armor that has weapons?”<br/><br/>Tony saw where this was going and flipped open the helmet.  “Okay hold on before you start connecting the dots that way lets clear some things up.  First things first right now the only person who could ever operate this thing is me.  So I'm not going to just be handing this out to the US Army anytime soon.  Secondly I didn't make this thing for destruction, I made this thing because...”  Tony paused, feeling something hit him deep metaphysically.<br/><br/>“You made it to get back at the people who killed your father.”  James stated.<br/><br/>Tony struggled to let the words get out of his throat, he desperately wanted to say yes.  It was the images he saw when the suit was first being made.  The terrorists in their cave or where ever.  Laughing with sadistic glee before he came in.  Launching missiles and making them pay dearly.  Before he could dwell on any of that though he had a realization.  One which was the reason the suit was finished.  “Yeah... at first.  I wanted to do it so badly but, I know how I can't do that.  Not just legally but I can't let myself sink that far, let myself just drop to their level.  No I didn't finish this suit to get revenge.  I finished this suit so that something like that couldn't happen again.  Not to me but to anyone.  I just... shit I don't know how to say this.  I want to leave the world a better place than when I came into it.  So maybe me just making something crazy was the only way I could think to do it, but I know this can do it.”<br/><br/>James slowly got up out of his seat, approaching Tony and putting a hand onto the metal shoulder of his suit.  “Tony, you're a good kid.  Always have been, always will be.  If you want to give this a shot I'll go ahead and follow you.  I'm just hoping you don't bite off more than you can chew.”<br/><br/>“Heh, come on James, when I have ever made a stupid decision?”<br/><br/>“Plenty of times Tony.  Plenty.”</div>"

Snapping out of her daydream, where she had found herself in a golden city with a rainbow bridge. As she walked along the glass like floor gazing up at the brilliant shining stars, she reached out her hand toward the sky like she could almost touch them, then everything faded. She was actually leaning with one hand against the wall on the Quinjet. She was getting ready for the drop into the middle of a battlefield between US troops aiding the civilians against Rebel forces in Behrut. <br/><br/><img src=""http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130917185722/finalfantasy/images/archive/b/b2/20131217045231!LRFFXIII_Nocturne.png""/><br/><br/>And now adorned in her new modernised, leather inspired hero outfit. A much better fit and feel for combat; yet retaining an element of metallic  boots with guards. A more comfortable and lighter fit for combat. Accompanied her new Heater shaped purple metal shield.<br/><br/>She said nothing as she looked at Agent Hill. Valkyrie had grown ever more serious in her ways. Maria went on to explain her mission. “So remember, your job is to punch in, alleviate fire away from the US troops and civs while SHIELD evacs them. And, neutralise the rebel fighters.”<br/>“So they're sending me down instead...” This was her first time out of the SHIELD HQ and her first field assignment as Valkyrie with her wings. The world had not yet seen this Angel of Death and nobody else from SHIELD was available at this moment in time as they were all battling HULK in New York or on other assignments. She was fearful of how the world religions would react to her.<br/><br/>“Yes, sending you in is our best chance of minimising casualties, you can take their fire and survive.” Maria scorns her for the attitude from her pilot seat and flicks the door switch. “Don't worry, you can do this V!” She yells as the door opens and the wind picks up. “And you're sure you don't wanna wear the helmet?”<br/><br/>“I'm nothing special.” Valkyrie retorted back as she holds one leg over the edge and just drops elegantly from of the plane. <br/><br/>[Battle theme: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_GDL97ukO4&amp;index=4&amp;list=FLT7j7huMjTLXE61dlZeJXWw"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_GDL97ukO4&amp;index=4&amp;list=FLT7j7huMjTLXE61dlZeJXWw</a>]<br/><br/>It was now that all her training with Captain America paid off. He taught her how to use her new found wings. About half way down to her drop point, she conjured her wings out at will, there her magical healing properties took over by resealing the skin around the blades again. Her powers grew exponentially every day, and she still didn't fully understand her purpose. <br/><br/>Fighters and civilians down below began to look up and point at her. Some of the extremists fled in absolute fear that judgement day was upon them. Valkyrie slowed her descent speed and  with the flap of her wings, gained some glide control over the nearly ruined city. “Why do people want to do such terrible things? I'll never understand.” She comments to herself as she landed on top of a part crumbled building. Upon scanning the area, she saw gun fights breaking out below. Civilians were cornered and caught up between US troops and extremist rebels. She gasps as she witnesses them being mowed down by an AK-47. Then taking further notice, the ground was littered with the bodies of innocent victims. It almost made her throw up. Righteous fury begins to consume her.<br/><br/>She didn't even have to think about it as she jumped with such godly speed toward the rebel fighters. She was soon upon them, taking their guns in one quick swoop and breaking them in half over her knee, throwing them to the ground. Now she faced her greatest dilemma - to let them live to kill another day, or kill them now without trial? There was no question. They needed punishing for the heinous crimes they had committed.<br/><br/>One rebel looked horrified in shock and fell to their shaken knees. “P-please....no.....my time has not come yet.” Another of them only wept at the brilliant presence of her wings as she peered down at their heartless and cruel faces. She picks up the one who spoke by his neck. “Do you think that what you are doing here today has ANY meaning? Do you think your God LOVES you!?” He shakes his head in horror. “You're right. He doesn't love you!” She throws him half way across the battlefield. His comrade screams and tried to run, but stumbled. She caught upto him with ease. She grabs him by the leg upside down. “I should do what you did to them. But that would make me no better. So I'm letting SHIELD have you.” She then begins to drag him by his leg with his face scraping the ground. She turns to him and laughs with a smile. “You'll enjoy it! I assure you!!” She was no assassin. These men had to pay for their crimes but she felt it a more fitting punishment to give them to SHIELD for brutal interrogations.<br/><br/>As soon as she handed him over, she turned to the rest of the battlefield. She spreads her wings and flies up into the sky where everyone could see. “Extremists! Hear me now! Your time of judgement here! Surrender or you will PAY for your crimes...in Hell!” She holds out her hand and Dragonfang appears to her side, bestowed upon her by the Goddess Freya. She could get used to wielding this sword, it felt so <span class=""bb-i"">natural</span>.<br/><br/>Most of them surrendered immediately, but those who did not and fired at her. She took one bullet into her arm but didnt even flinch at the wound, she deflected another with her trusty sword. The wounds healed over quickly and she descended to knock their guns out of the hands. “..You've made your choice.” Valkyrie cuts his arms off with her sharp blade. “Best get medical aid before you bleed to death...” She scorns. His life could still be saved but he would never hold a gun ever again.<br/><br/>She noticed the lifeless bodies were glowing around her. She approaches one of the innocent victims. A child lay with its mother's arm around her. She felt so very sad at this sight. Something was whispering to her inside. Valkyrie somehow knew deep down that she could save them, like an instinct. So she placed her hands on their arms. And as she closed her eyes, she focused all her energies into her hands, she glowed and the light flowed down through her arm into the dead, and not just the two she touched but the nearby victims as well.<br/><br/>Suddenly they all wake up mysteriously and Victoria smiles with relief. “MEDIC!!!” She yells them over as SHIELD wraps up the rest of the arrested rebels. The victims look up at this winged creature with confusion but with awe, something about her just didn't feel human to them. They somehow knew they had been given a second chance. One of the lesser injured revived hobbled up to her and held her hand. “You have come to save us. You are our Salvation. We thank you, so very much!”<br/><br/>And then V knew who's salvation the ghostly woman meant. It was the humans. SHIELD tried their best to keep the media's attention away from her but in vain. Within minutes reports flooded the internet and news of the Valkyrie's existence. She couldn't help blush at the people fussing all around her with cameras. Although it had been some time has had been the attention of the media, she now had a purpose she'd been searching for. This was her calling. <br/><br/>---<br/><span class=""bb-b"">9pm Breaking News from BBC Worldwide Network:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“....Although we have seen many remarkable people step up to the plate in the today's ever growing problematic society; the appearance of this winged heroine is truly a remarkable one.

A large super computer took up one side of the room, with various screens of ridiculous sizes. Two doom bots closed the doors behind him, while he could close them himself why should he lower himself to do a peasants work? Moving to the console he activated the screens, looking at them as all the major events from the news appeared on the screens. A battle in new york with a green goliath and two would be heroes stepping in to stop it, what people were calling an angel in Lebanon and the youngest Stark releasing some new technology.<br/><br/>He shook his head slightly. The Stark family had typically been rather intelligent, nothing compared to him obviously, it was sad to see such a mind to go to waste on items of no real significance, games and screens for idiots who couldn't keep their mobile devices from breaking? No, he much preferred his fathers work. He had even purchased some weapons of Stark both through legitimate and... less legitimate channels. However he didn't not bat an eye over it, they were for the defense of Latvaria and he would defend her by any means from the rest of the world.<br/><br/>What was interesting was this appearance of an angel, and some people were calling the hammer wielding one ""Thor"" due to the hammer, despite the obvious gender difference from the age old Myths. There was already an online mass hysteria on whether or not these were the real gods that people should be worshiping, the ones of norse myth. As how could you not? There was undeniable proof of them existing. Several people according to his searches were already converting and trying to learn more, anything to do with Norse Mythology was trending right now. With a winged angel reminiscent of a Valkyrie and the rumored female Thor the internet was exploding.<br/><br/>Such idiots, Doom was superior in every way.

Wilson was in the back of a Quinjet, approaching the savage land. However as he had already checked all the briefing files they had on both the savage land and the corporation that was wanting to take dinosaurs, after somehow discovering the savage land, he had turned his attention to keeping an eye on the news. The Hulk was still pretty major, was was Spider-man and the triceratops but Valkyrie had made a big impression somehow, the media had also connected the dots far quicker than he would have liked to her true identity. The BBC must have been on full action stations to find out so quickly, or perhaps her family was more well known than he had thought. <br/><br/>One thing was sure, her training had sure has hell paid off. The bringing back to life thing was a bit, odd though. He actually found it disconcerting, this was a world full of extraordinary people doing extraordinary things...<br/><br/>However bringing people back from death?

The X-men moved through the air at a startling rate, a column of ice appeared beneath his feet as he moved. Below him, a very peculiar battle was taking place. Monstrous shapes of ice lumbered about, with the ice golems striking any enemy that crossed them with a frosty appendage. Their enemies? Purifiers. A group of religious mutant hating terrorists.<br/><br/>Terrorists. As if the media would ever call anyone killing mutants that. The thought made Bobby sick.<br/><br/>Deciding to take his mind off such things, Bobby thought it was time to join the fray.  Turning sharply, Iceman stopped circling the conflict, with him instead diving straight down into it. His fist collided with the head of a hooded Purifier as he landed, with Iceman knocking him off guard. Moving his frozen fist once more, he brought it up, sucker punching the whack job from below. Before he could make a witty remark or an ice related pun however, Bobby caught sight of another Purifier turning his high tech rifle towards him. <br/><br/>Moving up his arms, a wall of ice jutted out of the ground in front of him, acting as a blockade as the man fire his rifle. The icy barricade was no match for the gun’s energy blast however, with the wall exploding into pieces and disappearing as quickly as it had appeared. Reacting quickly, the mutant shot a blast of ice from his now outstretched arm, with him freezing the man’s gun solid. It shattered as the man reared back in shock, giving the hero ample opportunity to burst forward and finish the job. <br/><br/>The sound of squealing echoed through the group. Turning Bobby found himself impressed, with every Purifier down for the count. Well, nearly everyone. The groups apparently leader seemed to be the last man remaining. Something he was very aware of. <br/><br/>“This won’t be the last you’ll see of me, you abomination!” He bellowed at the hero before turning to run. <br/><br/>The thought made Bobby chuckle slightly as he watched the man sprint up the road.<br/><br/>Iceman looked around himself briefly at the surround ice golems, who seemed to be watching too. <br/><br/>“A ball, if you will, Squire” Bobby requested smugly, holding up his hand expectantly. <br/><br/>One of the golems next to him dropped what appeared to be a snowball into his hand.<br/><br/>Smiling, Bobby moved his fingers and coated the ball in a thick layer of ice. He readied himself. He only had one shot. <br/><br/>“Oh, Frosty, the Snowman…” Bobby began to sing once more. <br/><br/>Bobby threw the ball. It hurtled through the air, descending upon the running racist. The man dropped to the floor as it collided with his body.<br/><br/>“…was alive as he could be.”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>It didn’t take long for Bobby to clean up the mess he had made. The ice golems simply collapsed into slush, leaving a muddle puddle around a group of unconscious hooded men. The tiring part had been moving the knocked out group onto the pavement, where Bobby had lined their bodies against a wall before giving each Purifier a pair of their very own handcuffs made of ice. <br/><br/>He decided to the leave the scene straight away after calling the police. Knowing them, they’d probably find a way of arresting them too. However before this, Bobby had taken a look at the Purifier’s weapons. Their kit seemed like highly advanced tech. It was so much different from when the X-men had last gone against them. So different that Bobby even found it quite suspicious. Who had given them this stuff? Deciding that it would probably be best not to let the tech fall into the hands of the likes of the police, Bobby rubbed his hands together and worked his magic. <br/><br/>Minutes later Bobby was making his way back to the mansion, a horde of snowmen following him, their arms full of weapons.  <br/></div>"

While the darkness of the night shrouded everything, Carol could tell that she was no longer on the ground.  It was almost like a sense of weightlessness, as if she were flying through the sky.  When she felt herself dive and ascend again without feeling any solid ground or the fluid texture of any water, Carol knew she somehow had to be flying.  She did not know how this was possible, but once she flew through the dense mass of a lonely cloud, Carol at least knew she was airborne.<br/><br/>	Out in the distance, Carol could barely catch sight of a large, passenger plane descending into Boston.  However, even though the nighttime darkness hindered her ability to discern the aircraft, Carol could tell that something was wrong: the plane was descending too soon.  She did not know why she did it, but Carol zoomed down toward the plane and braced herself against the belly of the plane in an attempt to level the plane out, or at least slow down its descent.  As she exerted her energy to save the plane, a yellow aura developed around Carol.<br/><br/>	As the plane descended, Carol could see the Boston Logan International Airport, where this plane had initially planned to land.  However, at the rate at which they were descending, even with Carol’s intervention, the commercial plane would not reach the safety of the airport’s landing pads before it would have already barreled through the populated regions of Boston.  Carol continued to exert all her energy into slowing the planes’ fall, hoping that it would be enough to save the passengers and the crew of the plane.  Fortunately, the pilots were well-aware of the situation and had already begun to steer towards the bay so that they would land without causing much collateral damage.<br/><br/>	Once Carol began to feel the icy waters of Boston and the plane had safely crashed into the bay, a chilling sensation jolted Carol awaken, causing her to sit straight up in her bed.  After she rubbed her eyes, Carol realized that what she had just experienced must have only been a dream.  Or at least that is what she thought until she peered over toward a large mirror that sat on the opposite side of her room.<br/><br/>	In the reflection of the mirror, Carol saw a woman, whom Carol estimated to be in her mid to late twenties, sitting in the exact place where Carol though she was sitting.  When Carol got up from her bed, so did the woman in the mirror.  Carol’s reflection was wearing a red costume over her torso that that had black portion covering her shoulders and trimmed the bottom section of the costume.  In the center of the outfit, there was a golden, eight-point star, while a red scarf was tied around her neck.  Black, thigh-high boots covered much of her legs, while gloves of the same color covered her arms all the way up to her elbows.<br/><br/>	Carol turned away from the mirror and grabbed her cellphone from off of her nightstand.  When she had her phone in her hands, Carol realized that the black gloves that she saw on the woman in the mirror were also covering her arms, too!  Panicking over the situation, she gazed at the date that was displayed on her phone.  When she saw that her phone read that it was still August, 2012, Carol at least knew that she did not somehow wake up several years in the future.  But did she somehow rapidly age in the present?  Was that even possible?<br/><br/>	After looking at her phone, Carol walked over to her bedroom mirror to get a better look at herself.  Even though before all of this happened Carol was neither bad looking nor very short, she now looked almost looked like a supermodel and this was not only due to her new height.  Turning around, Carol looked over her shoulder to see how she looked from a different angle.<br/><br/>	“I wish that the bottom of this wasn’t so skimpy.”  Carol thought to herself as she looked over the costume that she was wearing.  However, as soon as she had thought this, a similar yellow aura appeared at the bottom of her costume.  Once that light had dissipated, Carol was shocked to see that apparently by her mere thoughts the bottom of her costume had changed.<br/><br/>	However, before she could do anything else, Carol heard a heavy knock on her door.  “Carol, get your &amp;%# out of bed.  It’s almost freaking noon!”  It was her father.  Even without any alcohol in his system, Carol could tell that something was still irking him, causing him to become irritated.<br/><br/>	“One second!”  Carol yelled back, not even thinking about how her voice might have sounded different.  But something strange happened again.  Even though she had been examining herself I the mirror a few seconds ago, Carol found herself laying back in her bed, staring at the ceiling.  When she sat back up in bed and turned towards the mirror, she saw her normal reflection in the mirror.  What was going on?  Was that all a dream or a hallucination?  Or did it really happen?<br/></div>"

Legend tells of another descendant of King Agon and Queen Rynda besides King Maximus, an elder brother - though no there is no certifiable evidence to this rumour, as none of the purported family of this man have stated it to be true. </span></div><br/><br/>Karnak strode with an anger that was rare to behold, as his indifference regarding most others extended to their opinions of him and their ability to influence his emotions. Gorgon, however, was the physical embodiment of irritation - always trying to oust Karnak in every way, though the hulking Inhuman's only real talents were in his strength and military stratagems. Karnak had the upper hand with his intelligence and knowledge of many things, though the two always conflicted when fighting itself was brought up: Karnak with his skill and adroitness, and Gorgon with his power and size. Each believed their own style to be the superior of the other, yet Karnak had not entertained the suggestion of revealing the victor in a fight - partly because it would seem that the two Inhumans were tantamount, and if Gorgon won... Nobody would ever hear the end of it.<br/><br/>Karnak's fury beholden movements were aimed towards the majestic throne complex of King Maximus - ruler of the Great Refuge ever since Agon and Rynda had been incapacitated by the Kree forces, nearly a decade earlier. Maximus had ascended to regality with a prodigal flair, expanding the throne room and his own quarters and decorating them lavishly in the process. There were many opponents to Maximus' rule, which incorporated laconic hostilities with potential allies, and ferocious demonstrations of hostility with enemies. People were undoubtedly already blaming the rogue Inhuman's escape on the reckless King. Karnak suspected that Maximus would not care for their mumblings, anyway, as the combat expert had spent a good deal of time with the ruler as required his station. Though, it was true that Karnak had not successfully delivered much 'royal advisement' to the ignorant ears of Maximus. <br/><br/>While it was still spoken that Maximus was not in Attilan, Karnak had heard otherwise from reliable sources. The King's own page and unofficial spy, a man-child named Ordible, had a loose tongue - and his unrequited nervousness around Karnak made it easy for information to be passed between them. Fortunately, Maximus had not taken much notice or else Ordible would have been dispatched from royal service a time ago - him assuredly hearing all within the palace due to his ability.<br/>Karnak entered the throne house and quickly moved to Ordible's small chamber near the entrance. Karnak did not want to deal with all the formalities required when speaking to royal Inhumans around the palace, though he was a noble himself. He had decided to consult Ordible on whether Maximus had truly returned and was available before entering the throne complex. Thankfully, the door to Ordible's chamber was slightly ajar and Karnak slipped straight into the confined space. The man-child sat in the far corner of the room, partially obscured by the wooden partition in the middle of the floor. <br/><br/>""Ordible, have you knowledge of Maximus' return yet?"" <br/><br/>""I... I-,"" Ordible whimpered with ostensibly his natural hesitation, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Help</span>."" The man-child turned slowly to Karnak, revealing a stream of tears rushing down his face, and the first emergences of blood coming from the unnatural large holes replacing his ears due to Terrigenesis.<br/><br/>""By the Unspoken! Ordible, what is it? Where is this happening?"" Karnak blurted, surprise overwhelming his monotone normality. <br/><br/>Ordible pointed slowly and with obvious difficulty towards the wall, and murmured '<span class=""bb-i"">throne</span>' as he faded into unconsciousness. The strain, whatever it was that was afflicting Ordible, was clearly too intense for the poor man. Hopefully Karnak could stop it before it started affecting the populace with less sensitive hearing. The combat master spun and rapidly darted out of the room towards the ornate stairs. He could now feel the regular vibrations in the stone around him now he was at the same elevation of the throne room. The royal Inhumans, too, were beginning to panic and flee; none seemed willing to venture towards the throne room. Karnak brushed past the throng of departing royals and their attendees, noticing in the midst of them the young Crystal - the younger sister of Lady Medusa. Three men were carrying her out, probably under orders from Medusa herself, yet she was fighting to escape their grips and head towards the throne room. Karnak knew not why it was always only the Royal Family who intentionally engaged in dangerous situations, perhaps it ran in the blood they all had in their veins, or perhaps it was the ubiquitous attention seeking of most of Karnak's relatives, with the exception of he himself. She was quickly manoeuvred out of the entrance square, however, leaving Karnak with no apparent allies in his progress towards the throne room. <br/>Eventually, he reached the huge oak doors that everyone was avoiding, and he pushed vehemently through to one of the side corridors that led to the throne room. The clattering of conflict just ahead was now rising in a crescendo of violence, and he could just about make out the shouting voices within the room. He easily recognised the prominent grunts and yells of Gorgon, and just behind them the angered ranting of King Maximus. <br/><br/>All the sound died away, however, as a third voice whispered only one word - yet nevertheless it penetrated his skull, mind, and everything around Karnak. It was the only thing he knew as the word '<span class=""bb-i"">STOP</span>' filled all he could hear and think, and ripped the stone from the wall and the wood from the floor as the palace blew apart under the devastating power of the voice in the throne room.<br/><br/> </div>"

He felt his stomach sink when he discovered the state of Thor's apartment when he went over the following morning. Thor wasn't of Earth, but she knew how to lock a door, and in all the time he'd known her, she'd kept her apartment locked, yet when he'd gone over the following morning to see if she wanted to try another search, the door wasn't just unlocked, it was left wide open. He asked the neighbours if they'd seen or heard anything and all they said was the heard someone enter the apartment late at night, heard stuff moving around and then nothing. They didn't mention a struggle or hearing voices, so Dwight concluded she'd come and gone alone. All her stuff was gone, not that she'd had much to begin with anyway. There was only one conclusion, she'd gone and done a runner. He didn't know what she was capable of, but he hadn't expected her to just vanish, it hurt a little, he'd thought they'd become good friends and now this.<br/><br/>He'd planned to discuss moving their search along, the internet had since exploded with news about a Valkyrie of sorts and more rumours about the existence of Gods, though he hadn't found Loki yet, Dwight was sure Thor would want to know about this Valkyrie incase it was one of her old friends from Asgard. There was some crude mobile-phone photos and video footage, for the first time, he'd seen the God Of Mischief, though the photo was grainy. He saw Thor punch Loki in the face before the God appeared to run off and Miss America called for backup against the Hulk. It was incredible. To see the legendary Loki Laufeyson, albeit a potato-quality phone picture, was absolutely giddying for him. He was a little saddened that he'd probably not get to talk to Loki and ask countless questions, Loki's stories were the hardest to decrypt after all. Once Thor found him ... Dwight could only assume she'd imprison him, or send him to another realm to face punishment for his crimes or ... if bloodlust got to her, she'd kill him. He was unsure just how it would pan out, of course he never considered Loki beating Thor to a pulp, but that too was a possibility. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Goddamnit Tara, why couldn't you figure out how to work a cellphone""</span> Dwight groaned. He'd have to find some way to contact SHIELD to find Thor. Whatever she was up to, it couldn't be good and he had about as much hope of finding her as he did finding Loki. Asgardian Gods were a hard bunch to keep track of it seemed. Dwight wracked his brains ... how could he contact an organisation like SHIELD? They were probably already watching him anyway, Thor implied they'd done as much when his crazily accurate papers were first reviewed.<br/><br/>Once again, Thor was having a bad day ... Patience was never her strong point and it hadn't improved much since arriving on Midgard. By now, she was feeling <span class=""bb-i"">exceptionally</span> impatient at her lack of plausible leads. The museum raid from the previous night had proved fruitful if her goal was to dig into Loki's past, but his current whereabouts were as mysterious as ever. A quick taxi ride across New York led her to the meteorological centre, where <span class=""bb-i"">apparently</span> there were satellites, little did she know, they were weather satellites and they weren't for locating missing Gods. She overwhelmed security and made her way through the building all the way to the main research and control rooms, only to discover that weather satellites were different to what she was looking for. Police had already been called and by the time she walked out of the weather centre, there was a squad car parked outside. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Ma'am you're gonna have to come with us, you're under arrest for trespass and threatening violence against the individuals inside the meteorological centre. You don't have to say anything but anything you fail to mention when questioned which you may later rely on in cour-""</span> The cop started off the speech, surprised that he didn't even have to walk over to Thor to cuff her. <br/>Before he could finish, whipping out the cuffs, suspecting Thor was giving herself up, she simply swung her wrist, Mjolnir in hand, and the cop car flipped, landing a few feet away. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Who dares to bark orders to the God of Thunder?""</span> she asked coldly. <br/>The cops were dumbstruck, staring at their mangled-upside-down squad car which she'd flipped over as easily as a child would flip a plastic toy truck. They stammered something, unable to fully form words before Thor spoke up again.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Stay out of my way, I have no quarrel with your kind, I am only seeking Laufeyson.""</span> she pushed past the cops who were left thoroughly confused and terrified. Whoever ... or whatever the blonde stranger was, she easily overpowered them. The two frightened cops debated on calling the national guard, then again after the Hulk's destruction from the morning previous, would the national guard be able to help? <br/><br/>Thor found herself stopping for lunch in a run down diner, all this frustration had worked up quite the appetite. Glumly, she tucked into some eggs and bacon and plenty of coffee and stared glumly across the diner. That was when the news came on. It grabbed Thor's attention when the word ""technology"" came up. That was what she needed. She focused her attention on the screen as the news-reader talked about some kind of conference, a meeting where lots of technology experts met up. It was just what she needed!<br/><br/>To her disappointment, she was a day late and the experts had finished their stuff. A Tony Stark guy had put on quite the performance apparently, or so the newsreader said. What caught her surprise was the fact that this Stark fella was in New York.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">""New York's very own Tony Stark blew away audiences at the annual Electronic Consumers Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada, with an impressive line-up of consumer products. After the conference Stark returned to Stark Towers in New York where he met with the press and then revealed the Iron Man project. Critics have been quick to point out that Stark previously expressed a desire to move away from the war mongering image associated with previous Stark Industries ventures shortly before presenting the project however many have applauded Stark for striving to protect citizens in light of recent events which have devastated portions of New York City. Stark released the following statement to local media <span class=""bb-b"">""""Either I continue to operate it or I have it work off of an advance remote control system.  I want this suit to be something people can feel safe seeing whenever something happens.  With the recent attacks that ravaged the city streets this suit can provide hopefully at least the beginning of helping avert such moments from ever happening.""""</span> ... In other news, a clean-up operation is underway in downtown New York after-""</span> Thor tuned out after the broadcaster began talking about the brawl that had occurred yesterday, Thor had been there, it was old news and the media appeared largely clueless about what exactly happened, much less where Loki and the Hulk went. To find that out, she'd need special technology, like what Stark would probably have ... She quickly finished her meal and got up to leave the diner. She'd have to pay Stark Towers a visit but first she had to figure out where Stark Towers was, she'd also have to try and <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> get into trouble for the time being. <br/><br/>SHIELD were watching Thor, as she'd anticipated, but they'd yet to fly in and stop her, then again, her movements were unpredictable at best and mobilising an agent who would be able to deal with her was proving problematic. It seemed she'd have to progress without SHIELD's help for now at least, but this time she knew where she was going. <br/><br/>Fury was quickly arranging a small team to track her down, warning them to avoid any hostile contact as he wasn't exactly sure what they were up against. If Thor really had gone rogue, there was only a few individuals who could take her down in a fist fight, 2 of which had vanished to Australia. Perhaps a squadron could knock her down long enough to contain her, but Fury wasn't prepared to risk that many lives, especially with everything else that was going on, he didn't have those kinds of resources (or man power) to throw away. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Do not use hostile force, we don't know exactly how much power we're dealing with and what she's willing to do, if you can't talk her down, you back down, stay out of her way and keep civilians out of her way until we're better equipped to face this threat.""</span> Fury warned, sending out his crew. He hoped there would be no need to resort to desperate measures, she'd come in willingly last time so it wasn't entirely beyond the realms of possibility that she'd be open to negotiations again. All they had to do was catch her, but she was on the move again and they could only guess where she was going.</div>"

As she rose from her bed, she looked around and saw nothing but her normal room at SHIELD HQ. She was about to lay back down when she heard it again. She gets out of bed and wanders around the room in her pyjamas. “Hello..?” She waits for a moment before turning around to go back to sleep.<br/><br/>As she turns around she was faced by a blonde bearded large built male in armour but he was transparent. <font color=""#a2d39c"">“...Beware the Trickster...”</font> And then if she somehow knew who he was, she reached out to him. “Theoric..?” She seemed to remember his face from somewhere. He reached out his hand toward her and touches it before disappearing. She stood there pensively for what seemed a lifetime, before sitting on the edge of her bed. “Who are all these people...The Trickster? Who is that...” She wondered before heading out to the training room in her SHIELD uniform. <br/><br/>The Valkyrie was hard at working out when Agent Phil Coulson walked into the gymnasium. She was using the heaviest weights that Captain America used. She seemed to be pushing herself even harder today. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“You're up early.”</font><br/><br/>“Couldnt sleep.” She states firmly between lifts, panting slightly, only barely breaking a sweat. As if she were in competition with herself.<br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">“You're not sleeping a lot these days, anything troubling you?” </font>Phil asks with concern written on his face as he handed her a file. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“Your next assignment.”</font> He was a fatherly figure to the young agent. But he didn't seem to want to pry into her life too much. She gets off the weight machine and opens the file whilst grabbing a towel to put around her neck. “An invitation to the 'Parrington's annual charity ball.....featuring a debut appearance by their very own Angel and Valkyrie....Victoria Parrington'.” Her tone grew more monotonous as she read through it. “Are you kidding me?!” She looked at Phil with disbelief. <br/><br/>Phil smiles. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“Fury approved their request for you to go. He has arranged for you to meet your next assignment there.”</font> Victoria reads further. “Victor..Von..Doom?” She looks back at him again with disdain. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“You are to be his escort while on his trip here around the States.”</font> Phil continues to explain. <br/><br/>“The leader of a country, needs MY assistance? Is his security not good enough?”She asks Phil as they leave the training room and walk down the hall together. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“Apparently he wants the best. So we're sending you, and your parents had some persuasion, something about 'setting you up with an ideal suitor at the same time'?”</font> Phil chuckles as he pats her arm and walks off ahead of her, leaving Victoria in the hallway with a scornful expression. “Fury is going to get his ass kicked for this.” <br/> <br/>- - - - <br/><br/>Well, here she was. Standing in her childhood bedroom as the party was just about to begin. Gazing out the window she saw a lot of citizens stood outside the gates, just wanting to get a mere glimpse of the Parrington's daughter, Valkyrie. They held plaques and banners that read “Our Saviour is Here” and various other positive slogans. She adorned a long emerald gown with hair partially swept back and long and wavy cascading over one shoulder.  <br/>Attire: <a href=""http://i01.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v0/1904520213_1/CX252-New-design-sexy-back-beautiful-velvet-long-sleeve-emerald-green-prom-dress.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">http://i01.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v0/1904520213_1/CX252-New-design-sexy-back-beautiful-velvet-long-sleeve-emerald-green-prom-dress.jpg</a><br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">“Everyone is so eager to meet you!”</font> Victoria's mother wandered in. <font color=""#f7976a"">“You look positively radiant my dear”</font> Her father Reginald came in right behind Malicia. “We never knew you could so such wonderful things. You saved all those people.” Her mother took her hands in her own. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">“The children  haven't seen you in ages, you must stop by the Orphanage soon, they miss you.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#f7976a"">“And young Mr Stark is attending this evenings events but I think he is a little too young to be a good match for you, but Von Doom on the other hand is quite a catch.”</font> Her father added with one hand held neatly behind his back in that upper class manner. Feeling a little overwhelmed by her parents, she took herself back from them.<br/><br/>“I believe Mr Von Doom has got <span class=""bb-b"">better</span> things to do with his time. And stop trying to set me up with a husband. I don't need one.” She folds her arms tight stubbornly in her lovely evening gown fit for an Asgardian goddess. They look a little disheartened at their daughter's continued defiance. Victoria just hated the thought of being arranged to marry someone,as if she'd been through it before. <br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">“Oh...well...then come down and meet the people who we've helped this year with the Trust's money. We were all hoping you would sing for us with that beautiful voice f yours.”</font> Her mother leads Victoria down the mansion's hallway and down the grand steps to the foyer where all the guests were having champagne and appetizers served. <br/><br/>Immediately spotting her old friend Pepper Pots, Victoria makes her excuse and dashes toward the red head adorning a modest white long dress. She hugs the young budding business woman. “Thank god you're here.” Pepper raises an eyebrow at her, <font color=""#ec008c"">“Thank God...?”</font> She then folds her arms at the Valkyrie. <font color=""#ec008c"">“When were you going to tell me you had WINGS? Do they just appear out of your back or something..?”</font> Pepper asks as she inspected Victoria's bare back. Victoria spins around to stop Pepper poking at her shoulder blades. “SHIELD likes to keep everything a secret, sorry.”<br/><br/><font color=""#ec008c"">“Are you the result of an experiment or what?”</font> Pepper demands to know. Victoria backs away and was then inundated with guests swarming her, asking her all sorts of questions about her powers and whether she really did bring people back to life. It was then she realised, she really felt alone and that nobody could understand what she was. Agent Phil came to her rescue and shooed them away. Various SHIELD agents were amongst the crowd. Classical light music started up and Phil lead the Valkyrie away from the guests and onto the dance floor space and assumed the male lead stance and she instinctively followed. “I didn't know you could dance, Phil.” The Lady of the Hour smiled at him, taken by surprise. <font color=""#6ecff6"">“I don't have everything on file. You know, you should smile more. It suits you.”</font> He smiled back at her as they danced together and her parents entertain their guests, welcoming all who came through the door. Pepper watches her good friend with suspicion, slightly annoyed by being kept in the dark. <br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">“I must say green doesn't usually flatter women, but on you it works.”</font> Phil attempts a compliment as they dance but Victoria's smile faded. “Thanks...” <br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-i"">“Siguna....” </span></font><br/><br/>There it was again, that same whisper. She couldn't help but look over his shoulder to spot a woman in the crowd with long blonde curly hair, she too wore emerald and had a...distinctive air about her. A chill was sent down her spine, the woman did not appear to look very friendly at all.  Again, it <span class=""bb-i"">felt</span> like as if she knew her. But then she disappeared from view and she gazed the room unable to spot her again. </div>"

Quite fitting for what was going to happen on the docks that day.  Peter had told his aunt that he was meeting up with some friends for the afternoon.  While Peter technically did not lie, since he was indeed meeting up with his friends Angelica and Bobby, who were also known as the X-Men Firestar and Iceman respectively, he never mentioned that they were planning to fight crime.  Peter's aunt was always worried that her nephew was so frail, but Peter could not muster the courage to tell her that he himself was Spider-Man.  His biggest concern was how she would take the news.  Peter did not want to give his aunt a heart attack by revealing the identity of his alter-ego.<br/><br/>	Waiting atop a rooftop of a building that was relatively close to the docks, already decked out in his red and blue threads, Peter looked up towards the sky.  He could discern an object that seemed to be burning soaring up in the sky.  Once this ""comet"" began to descend towards the ground, Peter knew that this ""flying object"" was actually Firestar.  Clinging onto her back was Bobby Drake, wearing a  special suit that would protect him from Firestar's microwave radiation.  The distance between Manhattan and Salem Center was probably too large for Iceman to ""skate"" his way there on his ice constructs.<br/><br/>	""I'm glad that you two could make it."". Peter extended his hand to Bobby, shaking his hand.  However, while they were shaking hands, Peter fell his hand growing colder by the second, causing him to prematurely end their handshake.  "" I see you're still the joker that have always been.""<br/><br/>	“Well you know, Spidey.” Bobby replied with a grin, shaking the ice off of his hand. “We need to make these little get togethers fun somehow!”<br/><br/>	The comment was merely for laughs obviously. These little trips to New York had been some of Bobby’s most memorable and happy experiences in recent years. Sure working alongside his fellow X-men was fun and exciting, but to Bobby there is nothing better than helping out the people who need it. That was one of the best parts about being a superhero to him!<br/><br/>	Peter turned towards Angelica, intending to extend his hand to her, too.  However, she surprised him when she immediately embraced her best friend.  ""I see you're happy to see me, Angel.  It's not like we had not just seen each other a few days ago.""<br/><br/>	""It just feels great to get the band back together."" She gave Peter a smile and released her vicegrip-like embrace.<br/><br/>	“Wait, you two met up without me?” Bobby asked, butting into the conversation. “So not cool guys!”<br/><br/>	Angelica rolled her eyes at the comment from the fellow mutant. “Says the one who spent last night taking out a gang of Purifiers all on his lonesome!”<br/><br/>	“Purifiers?”  Peter scratched his head when he heard Angelica mention that anti-mutant hate group, “Haven’t they learned anything from the Crusades that things like this doesn’t solve anything?  I bet they flunked their high school history course.”<br/><br/>	“That would explain why they’re still living in the dark ages.” Bobby laughed at his own joke slightly. “Am I right?”<br/><br/>	Angelica just shook her head disappointedly. <br/><br/>	“So, here’s the situation.  From my sources at the Daily Bugle, there’s going to be some shady business happening here soon involving the Rose and some maggia boss called Silvermane.  I don’t know whether these two factions are anticipating this imminent conflict, but I think we should play it safe and assume that Silvermane’s men have already set a trap.” Peter paused for a moment, wondering whether it was safe for him to involve his friends into this.  But someone had to curb this crime.<br/><br/>	The mention of the Rose caught Bobby off guard. The young mutant looked thoughtfully at Spider-man as he spoke, his mind going back to when Angelica had informed him of the death of Peter’s then-girlfriend, Gwen Stacy. The Rose had been involved then. He had practically been one of the causes of Gwen’s death. Would Peter be able to go through with this tonight without… No. Peter was strong. He could do this. <br/><br/>	“You have a plan then, Webs?” Bobby asked, gazing off the edge of the rooftop and down towards the docks. <br/><br/>	“Of course I have a plan.  Obviously we have to act precautiously, making sure we don’t get caught in the middle of the crossfire.  Our primary focus should be disarming the men.  They can’t harm themselves and us if they are not wielding any weapons.  Also, we should have the element of surprise.  Silvermane’s men might know that the Rose is making a play for his turf, but not three teen superheroes!”<br/><br/>“Are you sure you’re ready for this, Pete?”  Angelica placed her arm on Peter’s shoulder, trying to comfort him.  Angelica knew that anything involving the Rose might cause him to act rashly, to put it nicely.  She just wanted to make sure her best friend did not stoop down to the Rose’s level.<br/><br/>	“I’m fine, Angel.”  Peter gave Angelica two thumbs up and a smile, although his red-haired friend could not see his grin because it was covered by his mask.  “So, you all ready?”<br/><br/>	Bobby was about to warn his friend to remember that he was much better at freezing people instead of keeping to the shadows, when yesterday’s events with the Purifiers crossed his mind once more. If he could muster up anymore golems, then they’d have an army on their side. Deciding that it would probably be a good idea to inform the team, he turned back towards them.<br/><br/>	“Yeah I’m good Petey, although thought that I should let you know that I got a major upgrade last night.” He exclaimed happily. “I can now…”<br/><br/>	“Summon some ice golems or something.” Angelica finished. “It’s honestly nothing too special!” She teased, pulling a face towards Bobby. <br/><br/>	“You won’t be saying that when you’re under 10 feet of snow!”<br/><br/>	Angelica just rolled her eyes and looked back towards Peter. “Yeah I’m good, Pete. Let’s roll.”<br/><br/>	Peter extended his arm out in front of himself.  Angelica, in turn, placed her hand on top of Peter’s, and Bobby followed suit.  In unison, the three teens, although not in a shout because they did not want to alert the maggia to their presence, said, :  “Spider-Friends, Go for it!”  After their team ‘battle cry’, Peter turned and leapt into the air, shooting out a thread of web skyward, swinging forward.  Following closely behind him was Angelica, who heated the air around herself with her microwave powers, causing her to soar through the air. Last, but not least, came Bobby, with the ice-covered mutant sliding through the air atop a column of ice. </div>"

Sparks could be heard falling down onto the floor and bouncing away, as the entire hull of the craft creaked and groaned in protest to what it had just been through. The lights flickering with all the consoles as they all struggled for power. He looked around at the strike team, none of them seemed alive however he'd have to check before he went anywhere. ""I'm here Director. It seems we took a detour.""<span class=""bb-i"">""Your beacon activated - happened to you down there?""</span> The radio, beginning to break up Wilson felt his head piece, it seemed fine and with it being patched straight into satellites unless he was deep underground he should have no problems with communication.<br/><br/>Unless someone was jamming him that was.

The radio snapped as the connection was cut, of course Fury could re-activate it if he needed to but that wouldn't be unless something really serious happened. <br/><br/>For now he'd have to manage. Moving between the team members he checked for a pulse, it seemed some of them had died in the crash whereas some unlucky sods had bled out. If only he had woken up sooner he could have done something. <span class=""bb-i"">It's not your fault Sam, lets not relive Afghanistan</span> was the only comfort he got from his subconcious. Which was true enough, now wasn't the time to mope around. He had to figure out what had shot them down, find it and then disable it. Then his original mission would still apply. Moving to the beacon he pulled it out, disabling it's power. Yes it would make the bodies harder to find for burial but he didn't want someone coming along and desecrating the bodies.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://cdn.movieweb.com/img.news.tops/NErfxQp69fy4ur_1_b.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Doom had made note, that his escort was not present as he stepped off his plane onto American soil. If he had seriously been in danger then he would have left, he had actually considered it. Though there were agents of S.H.I.E.L.D there so it would be hard to cast the organisation in poor light for that. Besides, if it had come to it he could defend himself. Though not many others knew that he did enjoy having the ace up his sleeve. He waved his arm and the doombots instantly understood the command and moved to defend his aircraft. While he could not use them everywhere on American soil technically the aircraft did belong to Latvaria so both it and the Latvarian embassy could be protected by his doombots.<br/><br/>It took him a ghastly hour to get to the estate for the party, whoever was in management of the road and transport systems in this country had not improved since he had went to university here. For one the traffic light set up was completely idiotic and needed an overhaul, as did the buses and the amount of poor drivers was atrocious. Everything in Latveria ran flawlessly, a testament to his leadership. Sometimes he forgot, despite the news articles how much the rest of the world was in chaos and out of order. How grim it really was. This fact was likely to irritate him most of the evening.<br/><br/>However he was impressed when he saw the Parrington estate. Stepping out of his car there were obviously photographers in the area trying to catch a glimpse at their superiors. As they should. He merely ignored them, walking tall and proud to the front door. Several photographers who seemed to be running around in the grounds on front of people needed to scurry out of his way as he did not stop. When he reached the doors of the building he walked into the reception area of the building. Hearing the music and laughter he decided to wait until one of the owners of the house acknowledged his presence. While they were no doubt his inferior, he wasn't a hypocrite and there were rules to follow.<br/><br/></div>"

Ready exterior speaker system with mp3.”<br/><br/>Even if Tony Stark had never planned on doing something better and more helpful with the suit.  Never let it become a show of power and justice.  There was still something amazing about just flying around in it.  It wasn't piloting a fighter jet, it was BEING the fighter jet.  The information all with in perfect view of his eyes as the helmet also blocked out the very high winds blowing past him and helping drown it out in his MP3 player as it went through Stevie Ray Vaughn's greatest hits.  Something about 'Texas Flood' while flying damn near mach 5 was so relaxing.  <br/><br/>“Alright cue up the mp3 file...”  Tony Stark knew he only had one chance to nail this entrance, sure he was fashionably late, as is traditional with a Stark, but he wasn't going to let it be just another big shiny entrance in just another big shiny car.  Spotting the mansion in the distance heard the guitar riff playing as he stalled just a little, waiting for how long it would go until the key moment having heard the song a billion times before.  Finally he spotted his landing near some paparazzi who were there...<br/><br/>You've been...<br/><br/>Iron Man flipped out of the sky, landing onto a knee to the carpeted driveway.<br/><br/>THUNDERSTUCK!<br/><br/>“Boom!  I make this look easy!”  Tony Stark proudly proclaimed to himself as he stood back upright.  He had the suit deactivate, feeling the parts all detach and pull of him only to compartmentalize into what looked like a rather weird looking briefcase.  All while Tony Stark adjusted the tie on his suit, the same one he wore at C.E.C.  Because frankly it's already had a successful consumers show behind it, probably can help rock the party that helps rock the body too.  Picking up the suit all cased up he tossed it nonchalantly to a valet.  “Watch the paint job on it.”  He absent minded called back to the valet who looked on dumbstruck.<br/><br/>“Hey scuse me Little Green Riding Hood...”  Slipping past the large man Tony Stark quickly made his way in, “Tony Stark has arrived, now we can begin this party proper...”  He was tempted to yell it out.  But the Parrington family had a knack for making their soirees as classy as possible.  So Tony had to be respectful and only say it to himself aloud.  However it didn't take long before he spotted the familiar red head in a white dress.  “Well well well if it isn't the most peppery of pots.”  Tony Stark casually started as he came up behind the young woman.<br/><br/>“Oh God Tony really?  We haven't seen one another in years and that's the <span class=""bb-i"">first</span> thing you decide to say?”  Pepper Potts was one of the few people in the world who not only knew Tony inside and out, but was easily able to handle Tony's sarcasm with ease.  “What?  I've been busy trying to run a fortune 500 corporation!  That's a lot of work you know.   You know how many crankity old white men I have to handle on a daily basis?  Quite a bit, and I wouldn't wish that torture on anyone.”  Tony wasn't exactly lying about that last part as it got a smile from Pepper.  “Well it is great to see you, even if its over Victoria and... whatever it is she is and doing these days.”<br/><br/>“Nah nah nah enough about that Pepper, I say its a great night and we enjoy ourselves a little before we go hassle her about the wings and the resurrecting and all that.”  Tony Stark gently held out a hand.  “May I have this dance madam Potts?”  Tony politely asked.  “Why of course Mister Stark.”</div>"

That was usual. But the suit was his new gadget and VIP guests were all talking about him. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Always wanting to make an entrance."" </font>Phil sighs.<br/><br/>""It was actually a funny entrance."" The Valkyrie chuckles as she watched Tony speak with Miss Potts. ""Pepper doesn't seem too amused with him though."" She then spots a tall man in a green cloak speaking to her parents. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Looks like your assignment is here. And oh look - you're wearing a matching dress!""</font> Phil points out with a chuckle of his dry humour, rarely seen on his otherwise stern face. <br/><br/>Victoria stares at Phil with a frown for a few seconds before he stops smiling to himself over his lame joke, then turns away to walk off toward the Latvarian leader. Her hand was then taken by a suited tall dark haired gentleman. ""May I have this dance Miss Parrington?"" She obliged reluctantly, it was impolite to refuse. <br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">""Lord Doom. Agent Phil Coulson of SHIELD. Your escort will be the Valkyrie, who is that lovely young lady over there in the green dress.""</font> Phil explains to Doom with professionalism, not daring to offer a handshake with the metallic overlord. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Is there anything you require of us during your visit to the United States, Sir?"" </font>He asks before allowing Victor to enjoy the rest of the party. <br/><br/><font color=""#a187be"">""I'll be happy to introduce you to our daughter, Your Majesty.""</font> Maricia offers kindly before asking a serving maid to get Lord Doom a drink. </div>"

Loki started with good humor ""If I get in the mood to start the whole 'world ending' thing again I'll be sure to ask your advice on where to start. Rest well."" Offering the doctor a respectful mock salute, Loki disappeared from the Australian outback in order to crash in a hotel room almost halfway across the world. A good night sleep would do him the world of good after such a long day...<br/><br/>==================================================<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Later on.</span><br/><br/>Much like he did every time that he woke up, Loki watched the international news. It tended to be somewhat less biased in its approach then other sources of news to begin with, but it also gave him some hints on where he needed to go in order to either do the most good or to find out what was really happening instead of the facade that was being presented. As he ate his breakfast waffles (Rated out of ten they were a solid eight), he watched as the troubles of the world were summed up for him in a time restricted format.   <br/><span class=""bb-i""><br/>""...King Doom of Latveria is currently visiting the United States in what has officially been dubbed a diplomatic visit. We now turn to our local reporter in the field. What have you got for us Vivian?""<br/><br/>""Thanks Tom. I am currently standing outside of the Parrington Estate where they are currently hosting their 2012 Charity Ball. A number of big and important names have already arrived, including a rather impressive entrance by CEO Tony Stark just moments ago. While he didn't take the time to make a statement, King Doom recently arrived as well. While we are currently unable to see what is going on inside with all these important figures both local and foreign mingling together for a good cause, I'm sure that..."" </span> <br/><br/>Turning off the TV, Loki took a moment to think to himself. Well, he hadn't been to a party in quite a long time and it wasn't like he was slacking off; With that many important people around it was vital that he was there to help ensure that nothing bad happened. Hel, it was practically his duty to humanity to ensure that this select group of people had a good time. Well rested and now fed, Loki disappeared in a swirl of magic once more.<br/><br/>===============================================<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Parrington Estate</span><br/> <br/>His arrival largely went unnoticed, just another guest who had shuck outside in order to help himself to a smoke; After all, only guests were allowed inside of the estate and he definitely looked the part. (( <a href=""https://41.media.tumblr.com/8de4926594e47921cf1016f96e416a0e/tumblr_n37zczpz1m1scikl2o2_500.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">http://41.media.tumblr.com/8de4926594e47921cf1016f96e416a0e/tumblr_n37zczpz1m1scikl2o2_500.jpg</a> )) Besides, it wasn't like any of the other guests would care that there was another face in the crowd that they didn't recognize, they had other matters to concern themselves with.<br/><br/>Entering the building proper, Loki smiled to himself as he walked... no, glided through the crowd as if it was the most natural thing in the world for him to do. In a way it was; While they had been much, <span class=""bb-i"">much</span> rarer, the humans of Midgard had always found something to celebrate or throw a party about and Loki had always done his best work at them. The wrong word here, an 'accidentally' overheard conversation there and making sure someone had one mug of something alcoholic to many could turn a happy occasion into the <span class=""bb-i"">Incident</span> that would justify years of fighting and distrust for years to come.<br/><br/>Accepting a glass of something bubbly that was as part of the uniform of the party goer as the suit was, Loki simply remained on the side lines for the time being, letting his gaze wonder to take in security (And in the case of some of the party goers themselves, admiration. There was no harm in checking out the goods after all).     </div>"

The insult he could live with, but such arrogance. Such a being didn't fit into society, he felt that just because he had a flash suit and a lot of money that he could just do whatever he wanted. Doom worked hard to get to where he was, and had sacrificed too much to make the world a better place. This boy felt that him a man of privilege could save the world. How pathetic. HE walked in where he was then greeted by the hosts. Naturally they both greeted someone as important as himself.  <br/><br/>""My flight was pleasant, one of the benefits of designing your own aircraft. You know that it is perfect for the job. I even managed to stay in contact with my castle back home and keep an eye on my affairs there. Also no need to apologize-"" He shot the young Stark a scowl. ""-He is young after all, and so much like his father."" He turned as the agent introduced himself. ""I am aware of who she is agent, and what she is wearing. Just be glad that this is a such a joyous event. Had we been anywhere else but this lovely estate I would chastise you for your control of your agents, and inability to have them perform their job."" He lightened his tone slightly.<br/><br/>""However as I said, this is a joyous event and I am sure that I am safe here thanks to my gracious hosts."" He tipped his head to the Parringtons, and turned back to them. His conversation with the agent was done. ""I shall not take you up on the offer of a drink, for you may prefer if I keep the mask on. However I shall accept the invitation to meet your daughter. She has made quite the impression on the world recently, it would be an honour to meet her.""</div>"

Maricia bows to Doom once more. <font color=""#a187be"">“Very well, Your Highness. After her performance I will introduce you. Alas, we must all do our part for charity. Tonight being no different.”</font> She explains joyfully. <br/>----<br/>As SHIELD’s Valkyrie was dancing away with yet another hopeful suitor of the upper class society, she seemed rather distracted. Or bored. <br/><font color=""#82ca9d"">“My name is Lord Spencer. Your parents and mine thought it would be a good idea for us to meet.”</font> As she half listened to him drone on, she looked around the room. Suddenly she 'wasn’t in Kansas anymore, Toto'. It didn’t look like her home, or anywhere on Earth. It resembled a huge golden palace. She heard people laughing and running. She sees people wearing Asgardian attire, with a pensive expression on her face. She used to laugh like that, and she used to smile...a very long time ago. She’d been here before but she just didn’t know where ‘here’ was. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“Sif! Amora!”</span> She heard her own distant voice calling out names she recognised. She turned around but the voice had all but faded. <br/><br/><font color=""#82ca9d"">“Is everything alright, Lady Parrington?” </font>the Lord enquired. “It’s Valkyrie.” Snapping out of it, she retorts harshly to him. She sees her mother pointing at the stage. It was time to do her bit for charity before beginning her escort assignment to Lord Doom. Fundraising - the joy. “Do excuse me Lord Spencer, I’m needed on stage.” Outside the mansion for the TV crews to capture and the hopes of raising more money from the public. She leaves the hopeful suitor by himself to head up to the stage. The announcement sounded all over the place.<br/><br/>DRUM ROLL.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">“And now the heroine of the hour - please give it up for - THE VALKYRIE.” </font>People clap and cheer for this new mysterious hero who seemed to resurrect the dead, although not in her fighting armour for this special occasion.<br/><br/>“Good evening everyone.” The music stopped and the audience quiet. “I’d like to thank you all for attending the Parrington charity ball 2012. And it is a real pleasure to have Mr Tony Stark here with his incredible new invention and grand entrance, I’d expect no less from a Stark.” It got a few chuckles from the crowd, especially from Pepper. “And of course the King of Latveria graces us also. Welcome Lord Doom.” She courtseys to him from the stage.<br/><br/>“This evening is about Heroes. Heroes of war. Heroes of the past and the future. And our everyday heroes. SHIELD does all it can to protect the world. But I’d like to especially thank the Heroes who recently protected New York in its crisis. You are all truly remarkable and we cannot thank you enough. This fundraiser will help those who have been injured by the tragedies of war and the families of fallen heroes.” Victoria sincerely expresses with a pleasant smile, unaware of Loki’s presence for now. Cap was not here to give the inspirational speech, she hoped she could do him justice.<br/><br/>“I’d like to dedicate this next song to those Heroes and to our everyday heroes that fight our wars. And we hope to continue their efforts in <font color=""#fff200"">Asgard-</font>….” She stops; she didn’t understand why she said Asgard and clears her throat. “I mean in…the future. Please enjoy the rest of the evening.” She steps away from the microphone as the band sets up to start playing. She didn’t notice it but small tiny particles of light was forming around her as if there was a shift in time and space and an old enemy behind the scenes scheming.<br/><br/>Agent Phil Coulson was immediately on the line to SHIELD HQ. They had checked Victoria for everything but they had not considered using the recently added data they had on Thor to compare. Phil tells them to run a diagnostic on her body scans and compare them to the ones they secretly took of Thor. The body type was a match. SHIELD now knew that The Valkyrie was Asgardian. But how could that be if she was born on Earth and didn’t survive the Ragnarok?<br/><br/>SONG LINK - <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExNx4m4OXbE"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExNx4m4OXbE</a><br/><br/>Having had their dance interrupted by the speech, Pepper turns to Tony. <font color=""#ec008c"">""Oh I just love this song.""</font> As she secretly hoped he would continue to dance with her this fine eve. </div>"

He didn't care one bit, he hoped Doom felt offended because frankly Tony was offended by Doom's mere existence.  He had seen the reports about how Latervia was practically living in the 19th century, barely any electricity, no vehicles, nothing that Doom himself had access too and of course plenty of in stock.  For someone who claimed to be about peace he sure loved not sharing a dime with people who somehow still defended him through and through.  Whatever he put into the drinking water to brainwash them must be potent stuff....<br/><br/>As Tony paused with Pepper to listen to their long time friend give her speech it was clear something had gotten to her.  She couldn't be nervous about this, it wasn't the first time he's seen her speak and she never had a problem with it.  This time though she seemed rattled somehow.  Especially when she said 'Asgard'.  What the heck is an asgard?  Well Stark had an idea at first, but the immature part of his brain was quickly silenced.  When Victoria was finished and left the stage Tony just gave a simple “Well that... was weird...”  Before Pepper got excited about Mariah Carey being covered by the band.  Joy.  Still Stark went along with it for now, thinking internally if he can catch one of the band members and perhaps bribe them to play some David Bowie or something like that.  Suffragette City always made for good ballroom dancing, at least Tony thought so.<br/><br/>“Listen Pepper, quick question, feel free to answer how you want.”  Tony started into as the two swayed and moved to the music.  “If I was to ask how your current career field was looking right this moment, what would you say?”  Pepper looked a bit confused at Tony as he twirled her out and back in.  “Well Tony, I might have something lined up at a clothes store, why?”  Pepper asked curious.  “Well go ahead and can that, I need someone to be a receptionist at my place of work.  Believe me you'll be paid quite well for the work.”  Tony stated casually.  “You don't have to decide right away, just come by the building tomorrow and we can talk more there.”<br/><br/>Meanwhile though, as the two danced away, some space away stood a man, dressed equally sharp, his bald head glinting just a little in the lights of the room as he watched Tony hiding a look of disdain for the young CEO.  He turned back seeing Doom nearby and decided that the time was right to go with the plan.  Carefully and with a proper bow he stood in front of the ruler of Latervia.  “My dear sir, I am humbled to be in your presence and hope maybe I can get a moment of your time.  My name is Obadiah Stane, executive with Stark... Tech.”  He had to force that last part out, as it hurt him to even consider it.  “I suppose I should apologize for the CEO's rather... pathetic nature.  However I wish to perhaps offer something that might be better than any mere apology.  A deal if you're willing to hear it.”</div>"

""I know of you sStane, and of your work. I do my research. Also as I said to the Parringtons-"" He indicated to them. ""- the youth of today often show no respect and can be quite bashful. I am sure he will grow out of it one day."" Not likely however. ""While I always open to new business ventures in order to improve the stability of Latveria, perhaps it should wait till another time?"" There was something about this whole scenario that seemed under the table. Something he didn't want to be publically doing. ""However I shall put something in the books. Perhaps tomorrow at eleven o'clock at the Latverian Embassy? I shall be willing to hear your companies proposition then. However for now-"" He signalled to the stage. ""-I have to go congratulate that young woman-"" Who was getting more intriguing by the minute. ""-on a job well done, and then make an announcement myself. If you will excuse me Mr.Stane.""<br/><br/>He worked his way through the crowd, until he got to Valkyrie. Careful not to back down to anyone that didn't move out of his way but at the same time he didn't barge them out of his way. Appearances were everything. Once he got to her he bowed his head slightly, enough as a sign of respect but not to show submission. ""What a wonderful speech Miss.Parrington. Truly inspiring, as much as your work was the other day. This world is in dyre need of more people like you."" He gave a side glance at this <span class=""bb-i"">Agent Coulson</span> who was busy speaking into an earpiece. ""I hope S.H.I.E.L.D is treating you well?""</div>"

It was society of upper class protocol. She didn't know much of Latveria or of Doom himself but she could tell that Tony didn't like him, the way he brushed past him like that before. But she had no need for opinions, this was an assignment. It mattered not what she thought. She had a job to do. <br/><br/>""You flatter me, Your Majesty."" She blushes slightly at Lord Doom.<br/><font color=""#fff79a"">~""You flatter me, Your Majesty."" She blushes slightly at Odin.~ </font><br/><br/>Snapping out of her slight vision, she fully resumes her focus on Doom. ""SHIELD are treating me very well. I couldn't ask for anymore job satisfaction of aiding them in helping the people of the world. I'm glad you could make it tonight. Your people so admire you, so I hear."" She had to be nice as a mere formality, but what she did know was Latveria was a land of peace. Doom managed to avert wars in his country and remain neutral to the rest of the world politically. <br/><br/>""I will be your escort during your visit here in America. Is there anything you'd like me to prepare for in particular or shall I just read a copy of your itinerary, Sir?"" She put on a formal tone worthy of an elite SHIELD agent but she didn't quite look the part yet dressed in a gown, rather than her uniform. <br/><br/>----<br/><br/><font color=""#f49ac2"">Pepper was absolutely stunned by Tony's offer of a prominent job at Stark Tech. She blinks taking it all in before answering. ""Y-yes! I'd love to! I m-mean that's if you're sure I'm up to the job?"" She wasn't quite sure of herself, could she really put up with his attitude 24/7 or even being that close to him on a purely professional capacity. But she needed a prospective career. This was her big break. <br/><br/>And then the red head spotted Victoria and Doom speaking. ""Oh no. She told me she had to be a bodyguard for a VIP she would meet her tonight....looks like it's <span class=""bb-i"">him</span>...."" Pepper didn't like Doom anymore than Tony did. ""I wish I could tell her not to do it but it's an official assignment for SHIELD."" She looks disheartened. ""Tony, would you keep an eye on her for me please? I worry. And you've got that fancy new suit, maybe you could do something if...something goes bad for her. I don't trust Doom.""</font></div>"

An arrow here, an arrow there, and then I win!”  Clint aimed his unloaded bow down the plane’s aisle way and pulled back on the string.  Once he had made his point, he slowly released his pull on the bowstring, making sure he did not let go and dry fire his bow.<br/> <br/>By the expression on Mockingbird’s face, she was not very convinced.  “Really?”  She continued to press the issue, trying to make Clint see the error in his overconfidence.<br/> <br/>“Well…”  Barton stopped spinning the arrow with his fingers and placed a hand over his mouth while thinking about his answer, “Maybe not alone, but with you at my side, we could beat anyone!”  Mockingbird rolled her eyes as her coworker bragged about their effectiveness as a team.<br/><br/>“5 minutes until touchdown.”  The pilot said over the intercom.  Clint pulled his purple mask over his head.

Now he looks to have got jacked on steroids and throws a ball and chain around. I can see his real face. And tonight, this alien's going down..."" Derek thought as he leaped and ran across rooftops keeping up with a car Thunderball had stolen. <br/><br/>Sometime later before ditching the car, Thunderball changed clothes. The 3D Man could see him shifting his form rather than actually changing any clothing. The man looked to have dropped about forty pounds as well to help hide his other alternate identity. Derek moved ahead to the doctor's last residence and was waiting for the Skrull. Upon entering through the door into the open, the alien was caught off guard by a punch from the stronger and faster 3D Man. A couple more punches into it Derek grabbed the alien and threw him through a wall. The home was huge. The doctor had been rich after all, before the whole being abducted and replaced with an alien. 3D Man was usually a hit first ask questions later kinda guy when it came to the aliens he was hunting. As the alien struggled to get up, Derek finally thought to ask some questions. Hopefully the alien was informative like the better villains in James Bond films...<br/><br/>""I know you're called a Skrull. What are you doing on Earth?"" 3D Man asked standing back from the floored alien.<br/><br/>""You can't MAKE me talk, human.

Derek began before being interrupted by the alien.<br/><br/>""Wait... YOU'RE the one who defeated Captain Paibok? You may have got lucky against the Power Skrull but every other Skrull you hand over to your brother and his friends in the military..."" the alien began as Derek got a shocked look on his face at the mention of his brother Donald, ""..yes, we know about your brother, human. Every other Skrull merely shifts into another human and escapes before being completely neutered by your military. The last Skrull you sent away...""<br/><br/>""Goliath..?"" 3D Man thought out loud.<br/><br/>""...already back among the human race as a hero this time.

We'll be seeing you soon..."" the alien continued before being restrained by a knockout gas and a fully automated fold out prison cell that formed around him.<br/><br/>""Did he tell you anything?"" Donald asked his younger brother.<br/><br/>""Yeah, the alien I took down last week got away didn't he?"" Derek asked with Tri-Force energy emitting more fluidly from his eyes.<br/><br/>""He did, why?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""The one I just took down said he's already on the move again. As a hero calling himself Atlas."" Derek explained. <br/><br/>""I saw that guy in the 'Bugle. Same powers, makes sense. You gonna go after him again?"" the older sibling asked while noticing some of the finer things in the good doctor's home.<br/><br/>""That goes without saying.

Donald began reasoning.<br/><br/>""I don't have time for tests, damnit!""

I will be announcing something soon that will change the face of Latveria! Usher in a new age of prosperity for it's people. You can never do too much for your people, something you will learn no doubt my dear."" Doom clasped his hands behind his back, looking over at Tony Stark and the young woman he was dancing with who were both glancing at him. He tipped his head in their direction, acknowledging that he saw them and knew they were talking about it.<br/><br/>They could talk all they wanted for all he cared, they didn't know his intentions. They could judge him all they liked, in the end it was him who had ushered in a new age of prosperity for his people. Crime was non-existent, tensions in the region were gone. He could stand by his record and would not be ashamed of it, occasionally he did things that others would not but the ends justified the means. That did not make the fabled Captain Steve Rogers a villain during the second World War why should he be labelled as one? The answer was obvious and yet, nobody else could see it.<br/><br/>Pitiful.<br/><br/>""In terms of my schedule you should enjoy yourself tonight my dear. This is after all your parents party and very much in your honor."" He signaled to the dance floor. ""Please, you are the lady of the hour. Do not let me hamper your celebrations. I am sure if anything were to happen you won't be too far away."" He turned and then began striding towards Tony Stark and his friend.<br/><br/>He extended his hand, like the rest of him encased in metal. Eyes turned on them, it wasn't often a monarch offered someone a handshake. ""Congratulations on the creation of Stark Tech, Mr.Stark. I was quite impressed by your demonstration."" He felt like a fool, offering his hand in greeting. <br/><br/></div>"

Before looking back at the surprised Pepper.  “Please Pepper, you're one of the very few people I know who can tolerate me for long periods of time.  That seems like a perfectly good place to start in your qualifications.”  Tony noted as he went back to dancing with Pepper since that was as good a thing to do on a dance floor as much else.  “Heck I even talked to my college James Rhodes about it and even he likes the idea, just come in tomorrow and we can start ironing out details.”  <br/><br/>Tony Stark had glanced over just as Pepper Potts also saw that Doom went to Victoria and was speaking to her.  Tony shook his head silently to himself, especially after Doom nodded back to them.  “Doom, come on man there's better ways to talk to women then making them bodyguards.”  Tony muttered to himself, he felt like there shouldn't be a question wither or not there was an ulterior motive to what was happening.  Doom just happens to want to be 'bodyguarded' by the hero who has incredible powers?  How convenient.  <br/><br/>Before Tony though could continue the metal clad attention magnet came up to Stark.  Offering his hand in a proper greetings which even threw Tony off a little.  Still with people all around seeing this and with full attention on it Tony couldn't use his hate as a crutch and slipped in his hand.  It was firm, the kind of handshake you make when you want to show your worth without saying a word.  Still Tony kept his cool even as he felt like he might as well be shaking the hand of Satan himself.  “Yes thank you, I'm quite proud of what we have going and I think financially speaking its working out well so far.”  Thankfully despite some public opinion to the contrary the stock for Stark Tech has gone up since the big press conference and conference presentation.  So at least Tony even in the face of someone he despised, could talk about his favorite topic, himself and his awesomeness.  “Still I suppose I should apologize for the earlier comment.  Certainly could of worded myself better and I'm sorry for the personal insult.<br/><br/>'Also, if you don't want to be called little green riding hood.  Take off the stupid hood ya brain dead dictator.'  Tony's mind snapped out as he made the professional move outwardly.<br/><br/> Tony for a moment thought back to when he caught Doom speaking to someone he of course recognized.  Obadiah Stane, he had barely seen the guy after taking the company CEO title out from under him.  He knew Stane was mad about it but figured by now he man would've calmed down.  He didn't know officially yet, the guy's hard to pin down for meetings since he does a lot of travel for the company.  Still Stark had his curiosity peaked.  “So, if you don't mind me asking, I saw you were speaking to Mr. Stane my associate.  Now I'm not trying to play nosey susie here but what exactly was he talking to you about?  Something good about me I hope.”  Tony beamed a smile and shrugged as he asked.  Getting laughs from the small crowd around them as he readied himself to gauge Doom's reaction and answer.</div>"

But Victoria is fine.” She turns around with an unamused expression before really looking at the gentleman in front of her. A dapper one, and the most dapper one in the entire room at that. She literally lost her train of thought and blinks a couple of times at him. She felt strangely nostalgic, excited yet angry...and a little frightened all at the same time. <br/><br/>Phil Coulson spotted them from a hundred meters away and chokes on his drink with wide eyes. He couldn't let her know who Loki really was, she was Asgardian and Loki had caused the Ragnarok apparently. She'd either flip out and try to kill Loki at her party or have a mental breakdown. He scrambled towards them, pushing past everyone in his way frantically. SHIELD had to protect her AND Loki alike. <br/><br/>“I...I....I'm sorry.....I didn't catch your name. Have we met before..?” She recognised him but she'd never met him in her life. Why though, she was falling over her words before this man she had no idea. No man had ever rumbled her confidence before. And she also could not certainly explain why her soul just started to suddenly resonate a golden hue. She looks down at her arms to see a golden wisp surrounding her skin. <br/><br/>Before Loki could even spin her a lie or a false name, and before Phil could get to her in time...a female's voice came from out of nowhere.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">“Lovers reunite at last.”</font> A sarcastic twisted smile came from red pursed lips. The voice belonged to a blonde woman. <font color=""#fff79a"">“His name is Loki, darling.”</font> She explained to a confused Valkyrie. <br/><br/>“Loki...the Norse God of Mischief and Lies..?” Victoria assumed. This was no mere coincidence. First she was a Norse angel of death, now a God of Norse mythology was standing before her. She looked at the blonde woman, who she also recognised. Amora, the Enchantress. Trained by only the best – Loki. <br/><br/><img src=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/e8/36/74/e83674a427cf0ceafc471f583ddcff0f.jpg""/><br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">“Very good.” She approached them both. “You're remembering quicker than I thought.” She turns to Loki. “Aren't you pleased to see me, Master?” She acted hurt. “You're losing your touch...you don't recognise the only person loyal to you?"" She laughs to herself quite smugly but then glares him down. ""You PROMISED me Thor in return for helping you conquer Asgard but you lied. Again.” Then turning to Victoria. “And YOU abandoned me. You both betrayed me and now you're going to pay. I'm not letting you be together this time. And there certainly wont be any happy endings today...” Her hands glowing with fiery vengeance.

They were so close that they were never off the phone or computer talking to one another. Or even texting a million times a day. Everyone around them says they're like a couple, but maybe Sue and Reed just couldn't see it yet. She rang the doorbell and Reed's mother answered. She informed the smiley bright blonde that he was in the attic, her expression was one of sadness. Sue knew what that meant...Reed's grief and his mom's never had gone away. She was glad she visited, Red was in need of some much needed comfort right now. She ascends the stairs and makes her way up to the attic. There she finds him trawling through memoirs of Nathan Richards. She approaches him meekly and tentatively, without saying a word, places a gentle hand on his shoulder to show she was there for him. As always like a true friend. ""Hey, you okay?"" She asks and kneels down beside him to see what he was looking at.  <br/><br/>Reed was too distracted and entranced by what he was looking through to even notice Susan was there and much less getting closer and closer until she was right next to him with a soft hand onto his shoulder.  Reed's head jumped up startled before turning over to Susan Realizing it was her and giving a warm smile.  ""Hey Sue!  Oh no its nothing I'm just looking through all this.""  Reed gestured at the multitude of paper and notebooks surrounding him.  He chuckled slightly hoping to ease the worry in her voice and face.  Though he knew why it was there, it wasn't exactly the most comfortable place for him right now mentally to be looking through all of his dad's things like this.  It always worried his mom the most, as she saw it as him refusing to let go of the past.  Reed didn't quite see it like that, but deep down he wasn't sure completely himself.  ""No some of this stuff is just fascinating.  Why what time is it?""  Reed asked realizing he hasn't paid the slightest bit of attention to his watch or smart phone.<br/><br/>Sue looks at her white metallic watch with a large circular face surrounded by rhinestones that looked expensive. And it was, a gift from her father. Though she'd much rather spend time with him than spend his money. ""It's nearly 3.30pm."" She then looks up at him from the floor and rests her head against her knee. ""I got worried when you didn't reply my texts.""<br/><br/>Reed glanced at his smart phone realizing both the time and the texts he didn't even see.  ""Oh man I thought it was eight in the morning still.  I'm sorry.""  Reed meekly said as he put his smart phone back into his jeans pocket.  She patted her head, letting his fingers run through her rich blond hair.  ""Hey least you came over, I do always really appreciate when you come over like this.""  He went to put away the notebook he was reading at the moment when something slipped out of its pages.  A large folded up piece of paper, one side blue and the other white with numbers on it.  As it tumbled out and onto Susan's lap.<br/><br/>Sue smiles warmly as he runs his fingers through her locks, she felt a warm fuzzy feeling as he did so. But not like when Johnny did the same, it was a different kind of feeling. She catches the blueprint in her hands and upon inspecting it her eyes widen. ""Reed. This looks like some sort of temporal rift device....is this what your dad was working on??"" She asks him with shock.  <br/><br/>""What?  Let me see...""  Reed gently took the blueprint from her hands and after blowing away and wiping dust off of a nearby old large piece of luggage laid the blueprint out.  He looked at it stunned for a moment, what was this?  Did his dad not tell him about it?  ""Oh my God it is!""  Reed glanced around at all the scribbles and notes on it point out various parts.  ""The main module here looks like a main power source, runs off of a pretty hefty amount too.""  Reed examined some of the smaller notes more carefully.  ""Negative zone?  Whats a negative zone?""  Reed's mind started to get working as too the phrase, but most importantly where he heard it before.  Suddenly it clicked, and Reed frantically started looking through the old documents and notes he was looking at earlier.<br/><br/>Sue watches him with concern as she gets up from the floor. ""Reed..."" She didn't know what to do, she'd never seen him this frantic before. ""Reed...Reed.......REED!"" She finally puts her foot down and grabs both his hands. ""Calm. Down."" She looked right into his eyes, her nose almost touching his. ""Breathe."" <br/><br/>Reed was in his own little world trying to find the right thing he was looking for.  Not as much frantic as much focused as he finally found the small notebook.  ""Yeah no I'm...""  Suddenly though he felt himself close to Susan, almost unbearably close as Susan was telling him to calm down.  Every word she said left a little bit of heat just grazing his cheek.  Reed felt strongly some kind of feeling he couldn't quite put into words.  But he just quietly nodded to Susan before letting himself be out of her grips.  Almost needing a moment before he regained his thought pattern.  ""Right uh...""  Reed just muttered before seeing the book.  ""Oh, right!  No I recognized the phrase 'negative zone' but just didn't realize what it meant.""  Picking the book back up he placed it onto the blueprint and flipped it open to a particular part. <br/><br/> ""He talked about a negative zone but without the proper context I didn't get what he was talking about.""  Reed started into, his mind scrambling together all the pieces of the puzzle.  It was something he liked to think he inherited from both of his parents, as he could just solve anything seemingly with just focus and time.  ""The negative zone is a possible temporal dimension.  Almost a counter reality to ours, what this though talks about is the idea of creating something that uses this counter reality to seemingly teleport something or someone at a speed beyond light.  Essentially creating teleportation as its known conceptually.""  Reed's voice and expression were turning to joy with each word as he turned to Susan.  ""Sue!  We should take this to your father and work on it!  Could you imagine the possibilities if it worked?""<br/><br/>Susan wasn't so sure about it as Reed was though. ""I don't know about this Reed. Imagine if it all went wrong..."" She holds herself with her arms at her elbows and leans on one leg. ""It sounds like something the government scientists would love to get hold of, and imagine if it got into the wrong hands!"" She was the morality behind the science. ""I'm all for scientific advancement but...I'm really scared, Reed."" She tells him openly, she'd never lost confidence in science before, but that was when she KNEW what she was doing. She gazed glumly at the floor for a moment. <br/><br/>Reed was still too deep into the project to even realize Susan's concerns until he looked over and saw her staring down at the floor in worry.  Reed paused for a moment before reaching over and gently placing a hand onto her shoulder.  ""Hey hey if this does work I can put patents on it and not let anyone use the technology unless I say so.  Besides that can happen with any scientific advance.""  Reed snuggled up closer to Susan and placed a hand of his onto one of her's.  ""Being afraid is okay, but what if this does succeed?  Come on lets just get his advice and if any thing starts to go wrong with it we can call it off.  Lets just at least try okay?""  Reed asked giving her shoulder a soft rub.<br/><br/>Sue's eyes twinkled as she looks up at Reed. He somehow always knew how to convince her of anything. Or was that just because she had a soft spot for the brainiac. She relents and nods, smiling slightly, firmly holding onto his hand for reassurance. ""Okay. Let's go see my Dad."" </div>"

Still, there would be plenty of action tomorrow, although Thor was impatient if anything. She arrived at Stark Towers relatively uninterrupted, traffic had been worse than usual around New York which was a mere annoyance, but she made it to Stark towers without Fury calling in the cavalry to get in her way. Little did she know she was being tailed by a small team of agents, though she did suspect Fury would pull a move like that anyway. <br/><br/>Stark towers was tall, and shiny. Clearly, this Tony Stark kid on the TV wasn't all mouth and no trousers. Thor cared little for business empires on Midgard, but the grandeur of Stark towers clearly showed that Stark was a significant person. That was good, if he was living in a hovel, Thor doubted he'd be of much use. <br/><br/>She pounded on the door but there was no response, a security guard made his way down to deal with the commotion. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">""What in blazes are you doing lady? Theres a doorbell yknow and no ones here.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I come seeking he who calls himself Stark.""</span> she answered. <span class=""bb-b"">""It is most urgent.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Well he ain't here, he'll be back tomorrow. I'm sure if you leave your details he can arrange a meeting""</span> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""This cannot wait you must tell me where he is""</span><br/><br/>Before Thor could continue to grill the security guard, the SHIELD agents sent to pursue her stepped in, perfect timing too, because if she couldn't get to Stark soon, she'd likely break in and teach herself how to use satellites (more than likely breaking them before achieving any kind of success). <br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Step down Thor, we don't mean any harm.""</span> the agent warned, hand hovering at his side incase he'd need to grab his sidearm. <br/>Thor turned to face the team of special agents, Mjolnir clasped in her hand. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""If you truly mean me no harm, you'll stay out of my way. Fury has sent you has he not? To stop me, because he believes Loki is to become Midgards mighty guardian? Your protector?""</span><br/>The agents looked amongst themselves, trying to formulate a response, Fury <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> sent them, but it was likely she didn't want to hear that answer, even though she knew it was the truth. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Aye, your silence only confirms it. What, pray-tell, has he command you do to me? Kill me? Capture me?""</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""He sent us to talk.""</span> came the response. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I have no use for his words, nor yours, unless those words reveal where Laufeyson is hiding.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Why have you come to Stark Towers, he's obviously not here.""</span> the Agent tried distraction tactics. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I've no need to answer to you, nor Fury.""</span><br/><br/>One of the Agents, during the conversation, managed to sneak around, positioning himself behind Thor's back while the other agents attempted to talk her down. Armed with a stun gun and sedatives, he hoped the element of surprise would be advantage enough to take down the Thunder God. He sprung forward, years of special training ended in a fraction of a second when Thor spun around, hammer-arm at the ready, and easily batted the agent aside, sending him crashing into a parked car leaving a sizeable dent. He wasn't killed by the swift blow, but he was certainly badly injured and instantly KO'd. It would take months to recover from the hit. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Who shall be next?""</span>Thor shouted at the remaining agents, a burning anger in her eyes. Nothing and no one was allowed to stand in her way when it came to finding and eliminating Loki. <br/>The agents, who'd raised their weapons in the moment Thor swung her hammer, immediately began lowering them. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Go tend to your wounded. I have no need for further bloodshed this day, unless 'tis the blood of that wretched traitor Loki.""</span> Thor said coldly.<br/><br/>The agents scrambled to help their fallen comrade, whose lungs had been punctured by his crushed ribs and his head had taken quite a smack when it crashed into the car. He was gasping and gurgling as they called in for backup. Thor skulked off into the darkness. <br/><br/>There would be no more bloodshed tonight ... but tomorrow she would have Stark, and he would find Loki, and she would get revenge. <br/><br/>Dwight was shocked ... he couldn't believe his ears when Fury, who'd sent agents to bring him in for questioning regarding Thor's movements, revealed the destruction Thor had caused. Fury quickly surmised that THor was operating alone and that Dwight genuinely had no idea what she was doing or where she was going. <br/><br/>It hurt. Dwight felt betrayed, but ... his logical brain kicked in and he told himself that she'd snuck off to protect him ... He <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> her friend, she'd said as much, and she was trying to protect him from Loki. But as Fury revealed Thor's path of destruction, the wrecked police car, destroyed museum doors and security, injured cops and now the seriously injured SHIELD agent, he feared for her, for himself. Had he bought into the legends too much? Was it the fabled God of Lies who should be trusted and not Thor? <br/><br/>He'd been unbelievably loyal to Thor, and she'd shown him nothing only kindness, yet she had wrought such destruction. But it was all to track down Loki, she'd not harmed a soul in her quest to find answers, to find Odinson, it was only since she saw Loki she became dangerous. Perhaps Loki had cast a spell on her that had made her become unhinged ... he was a trickster after all. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I can talk to her. Director Fury, let me help. She'll listen to me.""</span> Dwight pleaded. <br/>Perhaps if he could talk her down ... she'd explain, he's be right that she meant well. He'd fix this. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Son, she's beyond reason. She claims she wants justice for her homeland, but this isn't the behaviour of a benevolent Goddess dealing justice to a fugitive, this is much more. She wants revenge. Not even you can talk her down. You've seen what she done to one of our agents.""</span> Fury said sternly. <br/>Dwight was a good man, Fury wasn't going to have him throw his life away because he was enamoured with a vengeful Goddess. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""She could have killed that agent. If she was truly that callous she'd have killed him, she has Mjolnir and Goddess-tier strength, to her, that was barely a tap, if she wanted him dead she could have pounded him into slush without breaking a sweat. She overreacted, yes, but you haven't seen what she's seen. The last thing she saw during Ragnarok was a clone of her greatest ally, Odinson, turning on her, and Loki, wreaking havok. She's probably having PTSD, she truly thinks he'll destroy <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Midgard</span></span>. She's trying to help us.""</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""You think you're like her, that you understand her. Doctor, you aren't an Asgardian, you're a researcher, and you need to remember whose side your on. Humanities.

Granted the appearance of Amora, the so called 'Enchantress' <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> something of a surprise, considering the few days he was half expecting one of the waiters to remove some kind of rubber mask and revel themselves to be Odin back from the dead and seeking revenge any moment now.  In fact, all Amora's little tangent earned her from the god of Mischief and Lies was a roll of his eyes. ""<font color=""#00a651"">Oh please, for someone who's only <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> abilities lay in manipulating and screwing people you of all people can't take offense when it happens to <span class=""bb-i"">you</span>. And you were so <span class=""bb-i"">eager</span> to be used once I dangled the one self centered bastard who was too focused on playing with his hammer to even give you a first glance in front of you...</font>""<br/><br/>And then there were snakes.<br/><br/>For a brief but eternal moment of primal terror, Loki felt his eyes burning as another shot of venom was spat into his eyes. Some pains you could get used to be ever newly spat drop of snake venom unleashed a fresh moment of torment that would last for almost an eternity before the next eternity of agonizing pain arrived. Fight or Flight kicked in and for less then a second the lever was jammed somewhere in-between. It wouldn't take much to flee... a quick teleport and he would be in Ireland, where there weren't any snakes and he would never have to deal with the fanged demons ever again. Had he been almost a hundred years younger he would have said to Hel with the humans they'll be fine and hit the trail without a second thought. <br/><br/>But now... now if he left he would be letting people down. Abandoning these people because he was afraid would be spitting in the face of whatever power that be that had deemed him worthy of a second chance... and worst of all he wouldn't be able to look himself in his reflection ever again.<br/><br/>Rejecting flight, Loki jammed the lever towards fight. He could freak out over this later.<br/><br/>Looking around the room, he quickly spied what appeared to be a sword of some kind mounted on the wall. It didn't take much to teleport it over to his waiting hand. Closer inspection reveled it to be a poor weapon of choice, designed more for decoration than for actual combat in mind; It would most likely shatter the moment he tried to stab it into something. Placing his hand on the blade, he focused just enough to make it glow with an arcane light; Still not the grandest weapon ever made, but magic would temporally make up for its short comings so it could serve his purpose.<br/><br/>Now properly armed, Loki turned to face one of his personal demons. <br/><br/>He ignored the serpent that was heading towards Doom and Stark; While he didn't know Doom personally, from what little he had seen at this party suggested that he would step up to deal with the snake if only to improve his own image. It was time to see if that armor was worth it.<br/><br/>He ignored the one aiming for the hosts of the party; Victoria the Valkyrie wielded the power of an Asgardian and from what he had overheard at the party she could hold her own rather well with it and he doubted she would let her parents die without fighting through Hel itself first. She wouldn't need his support just yet... And he honestly had some things to think about.<br/><br/>His eyes were focused on the third and final snake; The one that was aiming for humans who couldn't defend themselves against it. Even as it reared itself backwards in order to launch its first devastating strike, one of Loki's hands were up and a ball of flame shot out surprisingly fast, cutting the snake off from its lunge by flying right in front of its mouth, barely missing burning off the tip of its forked tongue, but throwing off its senses for a moment.<br/><br/>The snake turned towards its new challenger, clearly mad as it moved with a surprising turn of speed towards the sword wielding Loki. Loki himself did not move, letting the serpent rear its head back in order to strike out at him with fang and venom before the fireball completed its round about arc and collided with the back of the serpents head, exploding with a great deal of concussive force that knocked the surprised snake forwards... where an enchanted blade was waiting for it, piercing through its lower jaw, sliding through its mouth and cutting apart its brain before cleanly exiting its skull. Twisting and jerking the blade a few times to make sure that its brain was diced completely, Loki pulled the sword out and let the snake drop to the ground before stamping on its head and reducing it to a gory paste. <br/><br/>Turning towards Amora, Loki seemed somewhat amused. ""<font color=""#00a651"">You know, I'm honestly not surprised that this was your plan. You <span class=""bb-i"">always</span> had trouble coming up with something that didn't involve getting it into bed on your own; Maybe you should sleep with an artist next time so 'your' next plan will at least be some what creative.</font>""      </div>"

One fo them diving towards the Parringtons, one towards civillians and one towards himself and Tony Stark.<br/><br/>He just sighed, the snake diving straight for the boy. Easy pickings without his suit. Doom opened his palm, and after a brief incantation (Under his breath, he wanted them to think the armour did it after all) his hand became electrified. Taking a step forward he placed his palm onto the scales of the snake giving it a shock, it merely pulled back off him and lunged for him. Raising his arm he took he braced himself to take the blow. His armour holding though the physical impact was still quite impressive. He turned his face to look at Stark. <br/><br/>""You do look rather dapper Mr.Stark however I am led to believe that you do have something a little more utalitarian with you this evening?"" A tail whipped round and caught him in the stomach, sending him back into a nearby wall. Grunting he pulled himself out of the wall. ""Something more suited to the current situation."" He pressed a button on his wrist controls, sending a signal back to the Latvarian Embassy. While usually he would never use such measures, this was one of the times he could get away with it and make a good impression doing so.<br/><br/></div>"

He knew he had to find Stane and get an answer from him.  Still the thought process for Stark's business was in need of taking the backseat since HOLY SHIT GIANT SERPENTS!  The three of them had showed up and Stark could only think the new lady near Victoria was to blame for it.  Things had picked up in a hurry when some guy he never noticed before was wielding a sword and getting medieval on one of the serpents.  Jesus Victoria's new friends are weird.<br/><br/>Still Stark had business to attend too, as Doom pointed out after sending out some electricity from his suit... at least thats what it looked like, Stark wasn't sure what the science of it was but didn't have a second to really mull it over.  Watching the dictator get smacked hard by the snake did get a smirk out of Stark who turned to Pepper.  “Just get out of here Pepper, I'll send you a text when everything cools down.”  Finally Tony turned and ran to the valet who to his credit quickly got the suitcase and had it out for Tony.  Tony reached into his pocket and pulled out a small wad of 100s.  “Here keep the change, excellent service!”  Stark called back as he had the suit open up.  To get back in from the portable state called for having the front open up, hop into it and let the suit close around him.  <br/><br/>“Alright testings over, lets see what this bad boy can do.”  Tony Stark had fear, excitement, and pure adrenaline coursing through him.  The suit had been tested and tested again in all kinds of different ways but now it was purely go time.  Iron Man leapt up to the sky and with his hand and feet thrusters kicked in.  Giving him flight upwards as the serpent eyed him and was about to come in on him.  “Snakes, why does it always have to be snakes?”  Iron Man said aloud just because he <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to let the reference get out.  When the serpent came in on him Iron Man quickly reached out and grasped the top and bottom of his mouth.  Letting his thrusters put energy in to not let it get too close to the guests.  <br/><br/>The serpent struggled in Iron Man's grip to get him to let go but Iron Man held on and was waiting for the right moment.  Finally as the serpent pulled back on his head Iron Man zoomed in grasping the serpent's neck.  Plunging some fingers into the serpent's neck it hissed wildly in pain as Iron Man struggled with his strength to get the right leverage.  Finally with full power Iron Man was able to grip in, and with a rip that could only be described as 'disturbing' Iron Man ripped the serpent's head clean off its body.  Tossing aside the body to have it come crashing down away from everyone Iron Man stayed up in the air to casually toss aside the serpent's head.  “Man, my first real test with the suit and I ripped a snake's head off.  This suit is so metal...”</div>"

After all who was there who could teach her?<br/><br/>Her trusty blade Dragonfang appears in one hand and silver shield in the other. She blocks a full charge by the serpent with her shield but is propelled back and slams into the wall, leaving a huge cracked dent. “Get out of here!” She screams at her parents as they nod and ran away from the serpent. SHIELD agents running everywhere to get civilians to safety and out of the way of the onslaught. Their job was to make sure they couldn’t be used as hostages against the heroes. <br/><br/>Although some people could not help but watch The Valkyrie stare down the giant serpent. It spat venom at her, she sidesteps and watches it burn through the floor. She turns back to the monster. With gritted teeth she awaits its next charge. And as it did so, she jumps upward and brings her blade down at its neck, her wings holding her in the air as Dragonfang sliced its head clean off. She lands and Amora cackles, weaving her arms mystically.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">“I can do this ALL day sister!”</font> The giant serpent's head grew back and lunged again at Valkyrie, who managed to dodge its head butt but gets caught by its recoiling tail swipe, smacking her across the room, sliding to a stop along the floor.<br/> <br/>As did the two serpents that Loki and Stark dispatched - they too regenerated fully. “We need to cut off the source of power!!” Victoria yells over to Loki, Doom and Stark as she wrestled with the serpent, she was on her back and the serpent had its weight on her. She was strong to hold him off but the serpent grew larger and larger thanks to Amora's magic, she could hear her laughing. The serpent breaks through her arm muscles, grabs her body in its serrated teeth, even slicing through her Asgardian rock hard flesh . It hurls her bloodied body into the air; she smashes through the roof of the mansion and lands with a large thud on top of the building. Her serpent kept growing, until its head smashed through the roof too. Its tail smashing through the side of the building.<br/><br/>SHIELD agents were desperately trying to fire at Amora but she had a shield that protected her. The serpents thick scales shrugged off every bullet.<br/><br/>The Valkyrie lay limply on the slate tiles but then slowly pushes herself up; she could see blood trickling down her arms and covering her sword and it began to resonate, as if reacting to the blood. She absolutely <span class=""bb-b"">refused</span> to give up. But the serpent fired up a huge venom spit just for her, and she couldn’t move away fast enough despite her healing injuries, they were not healing <span class=""bb-i"">fast enough</span>. She looks into the serpents eyes and for the first time she felt paralysed by fear. She’d seen this one before…. A very, very long time ago.</div>"

He made sure to keep himself on a knee longer than necessary, he was showing himself capable though he didn't want to show all his power. To do so now would be foolish. That was when, as the snake was growing a wall, far away from any civilians, burst open. Three <a href=""https://theblueseffect.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/doom-bot.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">doom bots</a> in slightly different renditions of his armour walked through the hole. Scanning the room their faces locked upon Doom himself. He just hit another combination of buttons on his wrist control and they got two work. Two of them moved in to finish off the snake that he had been attacking while the third moved to shield civilians, occasionally letting a blast of energy loose against debris.<br/><br/>Doom just cast a smirk at Stark, though it was obviously not visible. Though the boy was smart he was nowhere near the intellect of Doom. As the fight on the roof was reaching a new stage, he climbed onto the back of the snake, as it was about to strike who he could only assume was Valkyrie on the roof. Muttering an incantation under his breath he charged energy in his hands, and stuck them straight through the scaley hide of the snake, grabbing onto its spine and yanking it back out, breaking it causing the snake to rear up, throwing Doom off. Steam coming off his armour due to the excertion. He panted a little bit, he had not had time to perfect that spell. Such an act tired him greatly, as sense begin to return to him his hands and arms that had been engulfed by the spell began to burn.<br/><br/>He hit another button on his wrist as the two doom bots finished with their snake, instructing them to move against the third. This was a fight they'd win, and he'd reap the rewards.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/unsuper/images/3/33/Captain_America_Title.png/revision/latest?cb=20141214031746""/></div><br/><br/>Wilson jumped backwards through a group of thick leaves, he was thankful that most of these species went extinct years ago. Arms down to his side he pulled out two SMGs, full auto letting loose a hail of bullets back through the treeline. Sliding in the thick mud after the the jump he continued to look at where he came from. There was a snap to his right, and he fired up his wings shooting into the air just as a Velicoraptor came jumping down on where he was. No doubt where there was one there were others. Was that not what part of the warning on Jurassic Park had been? That's if they were even the same animal the ones here were smaller, and had feathers. Obviously the person who made the movie had no real life experience.<br/><br/>Who'd have thought it?<br/><br/>Shooting above the treeline he scanned the horizon. Which was where he saw the AA site, there were individuals walking around in bright yellow suits. A.I.M. Of course A.I.M would have something to do with it, though were they the ones that took the ""Tourists"" out or were they just A.I.M in disguise. Though he supposed that wasn't important, an A.I.M base in the savage land. That was important.<br/><br/>He tapped his earpiece. ""Fury, this is Wilson do you copy.-"" Nothing but static. ""S.H.I.E.L.D do you copy?""""This is S.H.I.E.L.D. Copying you two by five Captain."" He just nodded, he could hear what they were saying, just. At least it wasn't broken up, just hard to figure out what they were saying. ""It looks like A.I.M have some kind of base here. I'm going to take a closer look then take out the AA to bring in the troops. How copy?""""Solid copy Captain, good luck."" <br/><br/>He just sighed, this was going to be an... interesting day. As he swooped below the leave cover of the trees he could see the heads of one of the Raptors. Yeah, interesting day.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://www.kam10.com/skins/shared/imagesads/herologos/hulk-5244841c40cf1.png""/></div><br/><br/>Banner had spent most of the first day setting up. Loki had kitted him out, he had a small tower with a solar panel to put up connected to a rechargable battery so he wouldn't run out of light or heat if he ran out of materials for a fire. It was hot though, naturally. Didn't help that the transition was instant so his body hadn't had a chance to get used to the climate change yet. Though that was solved by a constant intake of water. Food wasn't an issue either, he didn't want to kill anything though Loki had dealt with that eventuality too with plenty off canned goods and if it came to it there was a hunting knife amongst the goods. He had packed the gun up and buried it nearby for if he really needed it, though he'd rather not have it lying around.<br/><br/>After that he had set up the radio, it was just some silly talk show. No music ever came on, just talk talk talk. However in complete solitude it was nice to know that there was still a world out there, come on Banner you've only been out here a <span class=""bb-i"">day</span>. He looked at his garden, well. What he hoped would be his garden. The irrigation was still a point of debate, he didn't have the tools for a proper bore hole and he needed some more materials. Though he'd ask Loki next time he came by. A bore hole was the way forward, it would keep him self sufficient too.<br/><br/>Then he could begin on trying to make equipment, try to fix himself. Or at the least, to try and make the world better in his isolation.</div>"

No point wasting a good fireball after all. <br/><br/>As the snake started to <span class=""bb-i"">regenerate itself</span> Loki decided on a much different, somewhat simpler tactic then before; He stuck it in an illusion of Antarctica. No targets to vent its aggression on and the cold blood in its veins losing the heat from the environment that it required in order to move. If the mind truly believed that it was currently in a body that was standing exposed in the freezing cold, then the body would quickly follow. Besides, snakes weren't that intelligent to begin with.<br/><br/>Now free to focus on the queen bitch herself, Loki threw his sword at her with a surprising degree of skill... and unlike the bullets that had been fired before, this one actually managed to pierce the shield right up to the hilt, where it stuck. ""<font color=""#00a651"">Seriously, this is what I'm talking about Amora! When it doesn't work the first time your plan B is to do the exact same thing again, only bigger.

Thankfully the venom landed on parts of the roof that covered the people below and Valkyrie was saved from being heavily burnt. <br/><br/>As Amora’s shield shatters and the shrapnel was about to impale her, she used a teleportation spell and vanished. Although, her voice remained in the Ether. “This isn’t over Laufeyson!!” Her voice yells to a fade. The giant serpent looks around its Antarctic surroundings with confusion as Valkyrie notices the creature beginning to fade away into nothingness. As did the third serpent that the Doom Bots were about to dispatch, there was no need now so they could power down. <br/><br/>Her body sparkles golden as her torn flesh begins to repair itself. Placing one bare thigh beneath her, she vaults herself up by slamming her sword into the roof to lean against. Her wings still operable ,open widely and flap allowing her to glide down to the ground. She turns to look at the crumbled building; the left outside wall completely gives way and smashes to the ground. Her mother, in the distance, points from a SHIELD rescue car and then faints. Her father turns around to looks at his troublesome daughter across the way, shaking his head. <br/><br/>Victoria narrows her eyes. An outsider in her own family. That’s how she’d always felt. She turns her back on them, and walks away toward Tony, Loki and Doom. She was no longer part of the normal way of life; her home lay only with SHIELD now. <br/><br/>As she approached Loki something weird took a hold of her. As she was about to thank them for saving her parents, their guests and innocent people, her eyes turn golden. <br/><br/>“Your eyes. They burn.” Her voice changing to a lighter and sympathetic tone looks upon Loki with a warm, caring smile. And, as if by instinct she knew what to do. With the wave of her hand in front of Loki’s face, her spirit healing energy drifted into his eyes, stopping the phantom burn that had been brought on by the nostalgia of a very painful memory. <br/><br/>Turning to Doom she smiles with relief to see he was at least unharmed. She wouldn’t have made a very good bodyguard if he wasn’t. “I’m glad you’re all okay. Thank you for saving my life, Lord Doom - and you too Tony.” She addressed the metallic clad duo, not forgetting the newly emerged Iron Man. She was also relieved that Pepper made it out safely and there were no casualties. <br/><br/>“And thanks to you also - Loki…was it? Very impressive.” Victoria asks the redeemed hero, her eyes returning to a bright blue. “I’m not really sure <span class=""bb-b"">who</span> that was…or why she wanted to kill us.” She stood there pensively in her battle worn silver armour, the blood and cuts completely gone. “In fact, I’m not really sure about anything anymore...” She looks down at her sword, feeling some sort of magical energy within it. Her blood had reacted to the blade, awakening its true power of absorption. Maybe she was lacking confidence in her abilities. But what she did know, was her mission to continue to escort Doom here in the USA. Although, it looked like he was more than capable of protecting himself, and with the added security of his sentinels. What use was she to him? She pondered – could it be that he didn't really need protecting all along? Then...what DID he want of her? <br/><br/>In the distance, Agent Coulson was reporting everything about the Valkyrie’s Asgardian properties to Director Fury. And the potential threat that the Lady Thor may present to her, as she had been hunting down Loki so furiously. They wondered what else the Goddess of Thunder was up to.</div>"

If Reed's father was working on this, he might have had a profound basis, on which the theory he was working on actually seems plausible.""  Sue rambled on and on until her father sighs as the elevator door beeps open at top floor. ""Fine. I'll hear Reed's proposal and see if he's worth the money.""

Reed stammered a bit leaning back in his chair.  Having dressed for the occasion in something nice, simple collar shirt with freshly pressed pants.  ""After all just talking to Susan's dad.

It was a fasinating piece.""  Reed stopped himself and took a breath.  ""Sorry just a bit nervous.""  <br/><br/>""Its alright Reed, normally I wouldn't really give my time on heresy but Susan was completely sold on the idea.  Plus your father and I go back years.  So I am very interested in the idea.  I'm sorry about what happened to him by the way.  Real shame the science world had to lose such a brillant man.""  Dr. Franklin Storm's word in a strange way caused Reed to start to focus.  This was his father he was talking about.  Reed calmed his frantic, panicked brain down and got to the business at hand.<br/><br/>""Well Mr. Storm, first off this is Ben, his just here because I needed a ride.""  ""Sup?""  ""Now getting onto the matter.""  Dr. Storm led Reed into his office with the others in tow.  ""Recently I was going through my father's old research.  A lot of different things but this was by far the most interesting and I may suggest well thought out concept I found.""  Unfolding the blueprint Reed found a spot on Mr. Storm's desk and placed it down gently.  Pulling out the small notebook from his back pocket with more on it.  ""Essentially the idea goes that by harnessing a possible counter dimension that exists.  Which he called the 'negative zone'.  It would be possible for things or people to be able to essentially use it to use it almost like opening a door from one end of it to another.  Leading to an almost teleportation if you will.  I'm not 100 percent sure about the finer points of it but if this works in theory you could use this to essentially go from New York to Japan in less time then it would take to log on to buy plane tickets!""  Reed had practiced that speech all of the night before.  So letting it all flow out was practically effortless as he pointed out details on the blueprint and letting Mr Storm see the notebook.  ""The power source for now is going to be an issue, and outside of any possible setback I think we could achieve a working prototype by the end of the year.""<br/><br/>Ben, even in all his confusion of what exactly Reed talked about.  Leaned over his friend's shoulder as he glanced at everything.  The practical talk about it though he understood, and he raised his eyebrows in surprise.  He knew Reed had something important for all this, having not been shown yet personally.  This though, this was huge.  ""Wow, that is a thing alright.""  Ben noted a bit stunned by the idea.<br/><br/>Johnny stood there for a few moments. Susan gleefully listened to everything, like a moth to a flame, she was so hooked on science right now. ""Woah......"" Johnny's mind was blown. ""Think of all the chicks we'd get Ben. If we made this thing a reality."" Susan frowns at him. ""THAT'S what you took from that?!"" Dr Storm leaned back in his chair. ""Hmmmm....very interesting. Alright, I'll give you kids a shot. I think Harvey Elder might be interested in this as well.  Hold on let me call him in.""  As Franklin Storm went to make the phone call Ben quietly gave Johnny a thumbs up at the idea.  Reed glancing back, ""Ben, don't encourage him.""  He muttered before he watched Dr. Storm reached over to the phone.  ""Miss Lumpkins could you have Dr. Elder meet me up in my office please?  Thank you.""<br/><br/>Reed's eyes lit up at he realized after a moment that not only was this thing actually happening now, but THE Dr. Harvey Elder was possibly going to be involved too?  Reed beamed a smile as he felt elated, all he could hope for, a chance to prove himself to the scientific community at large, that he belonged.  <br/><br/>Susan looks at her Father with big eyes. ""Harvey's going to be in on this too?"" The two had practically grown up together as their fathers were best friends. Johnny facepalms. ""Not another neeeerd."" Sue kicks him under the table. ""Ow..."" He replies monotoned. ""Harvey has a great mind. He'll compliment the team well. He's practically family!"" She always thought of him as the older brother she never had - protective of her. And although their parents wanted Susan to be with Harvey romantically, he never felt that way about her, Susan likewise, now Reed however...<br/><br/>Reed glanced over at Susan a little hurt as she mentions Harvey being family.  While he was thrilled to meet him he was a little saddened she never said anything about having known him before.  It made him feel even a little... jealous?  Soon though the feelings passed as the young English doctor walked in.  He was around the foursome's age, about the same height as Reed.  Slightly wavy brown hair that came to his chin and a natural charm to him that made Reed wonder if Johnny hated him only because he was a 'nerd' or something more.<br/><br/>""Dr. Elder this is Reed Richards, his the one who brought the project in today.""  Reed and Harvey shook hands with smiles.  ""Its great to finally meet the man Susan raves about.  I was greatly influenced by your father's work, I'm very sorry to hear what had happened to him.""  Harvey told Reed who grimaced a bit at the mention of Nathan Richards.  ""Its okay, I'm over what happened...""  Reed stated.<br/><br/>He wasn't.<br/><br/>""Still though its going to be great having you on this project.  I've always been captivated by your research work.""  Reed pointed out, having spent many a nights reading Harvey's work.  Ben chuckled a little to himself, enjoying Reed talk to a scientist with the same almost childlike glee as most other people would a celebrity or famous athlete.<br/><br/>Johnny stares at the both. ""Just. Get a room."" He remarks. Harvey shot him a look that he was about to kick him. Johnny brings both his legs upto his chest off the floor so that he couldnt get kicked anymore. ""Johnny, be nice."" His Father retorts at him, Johnny frowns. Sue folds her arms and raises an eyebrow at him, agreeing. ""Now Harvey. I was hoping you would join me and Sue for dinner tonight."" A feable attempt at getting the kids hooked up together. Sue narrows her eyes slightly at Franklin. ""Dad...I have work to do."" Trying to get out of it. Harvey scratches the back of his head. ""Um. Sure Dr Storm."" ""How many times, its Franklin."" Johnny glances at Ben, who was glancing at Reed, who was glancing at Harvey.<br/><br/>The moment he brought up dinner with the three of them Reed kept his head down a little trying to not get involved in it.  It was a painful sight as Reed just had to accept what he was seeing, all while not accepting any part of it.  ""Uh I guess we can all come back tomorrow and start planning out how we're going to go about this yeah?""  Reed asked meekly aloud.  Ben looked over at Johnny who by seeing Reed like this even seemed to feel bad about it.  ""Man this is going to be a long project...""  Ben told Johnny sighing.<br/><br/>""Dont worry buddy. We'll have so much fun it'll be a blast and you wont WANT it to end! Hehe."" He puts a thumbs up to the rest of the team. </div>"

Jean made herself ready for the busy day ahead, quietly humming a sad song as she brushed her long red wavy locks with one brush in hand, her other holding her hair in place and looking into a floating hand mirror. Although she had made her peace with Scott's romance with Lee Forrester, she still found herself feeling lonely.<br/><br/>And suddenly out of nowhere, a flashback. Her childhood friend Angie screaming. Car tyres screeching to a halt. Jean drops the brush and the mirror shatters on the floor as she holds her hands to her head.<br/><img src=""http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100520091611/marveldatabase/images/b/b4/JeanGreyUXM241p15f2.PNG""/><br/><br/>“Ungh!” It was like a stab to the mind. A brief reminder that she'd never really gotten over the trauma. She opens her eyes and sighs at the mirror, tilting her head to look at it. With a flick of her fingers, all of the glass pieces float upward and she moves them across the air and drops them into the bin. She stands up and brushes down her signature <a href=""https://cdnd.lystit.com/photos/2012/08/02/tahari-red-by-asl-suit-threequartersleeve-jacket-shell-pencil-skirt-product-1-4370315-808977495.jpeg"" rel=""nofollow"">red pencil skirt dress</a> and pops her matching red blazer over it<br/><br/>“Right then, ready Jeanie?” She asks herself in the tall standing mirror and checks each side and nods. She pulls down her blazer lightly and steps toward her bedroom exit in red heeled shoes. As she shuts the door behind her, she looks down the hall to see all the mutant pupils scrambling to get ready for their classes. Today Jean was covering Hank's class as he prepared his speech for tonight's university fundraiser with Harvard, Princeton and Yale professors, to which he was the guest of honour, along with Jean. <br/><br/>Class  flows rather smoothly, the kids enjoying Jean's quirky take on the sciences rather than Hank's drole ramblings. Jean takes out an ordinary cardboard box. “Now I was shown this when I was at school. It's pretty neat.” She cuts a hole in one side of the box. She then points the hole toward a tower of foam cups. “This is called a Vortex Canon.” She then smacks each side of the box and the cup tower falls down. “Just the power of compressed air.” The kids were awed and clapped. She then gave them a box each to play with, along with smoke machines so that they could see a circle of puffed smoke shoot out. <br/><br/>Each pupil had a different colour of smoke. It wasn't long before a rainbow of smoke exploded out of the science lab, shocking a poor Ororo Munroe into a complete fright as she walked past. Jean emerges laughing her head off to get out of there and let the kids play. Storm chuckles as Jean brushes off the coloured smoke out of her red curls. “Kids.” The two laugh as they hear the commotion. “Coffee?” Jean offers Ororo as the break bell rang. “God yes!” <br/><br/>“Fundraiser tonight.” Storm turns to Jean as they stand leaning on the balcony. Jean nods and looks down into her cup of Java. “You know who's going to be there, don't you?” Storm asks her. Jean looks at Ororo as if knowing. “Sinister.” Jean utters his name. “I cant believe he gets so much funding just to experiment on mutants.” Ororo complains. “Makes me so mad!”<br/><br/>Jean nods in agreement. “It's the Friends of Humanity. They want him to find a “cure” for the X gene.” she explains and Storm laughs. “How absurd. There IS no cure.” Jean turns around and leans the small of her back against the railing. “Treating it like it's a disease that needs an antidote.” <br/><br/>In the forecourt below, Lee and Scott could be heard laughing as they walked through the gates hand in hand, they'd spent the weekend somewhere no doubt. Jean looks over her shoulder, somewhat glaring. “You alright, Jean?” Her best friend asks with concern. Jean winces and sighs. “Yeah. Break's over.” She heads on inside, leaving Storm behind with a worried expression. Just then the Professor's wheelchair electronics are heard approaching. “Charles. I'm concerned for Jean. This morning I heard smashed glass and a groan coming from her room....” Charles nods. “I felt it. A psychic blast. They're getting stronger again. It's not been this bad since she first came here.”<br/><br/>“I think she's hurting deep down.” Storm began to walk alongside the Professor. “Yes, I believe so. When Jean's heart breaks, so to does her mind. Fragile. Like glass. Don't worry Ororo, I will talk with her. I'm planning a trip Muir Island, I think she should accompany me. It might take her mind off things her for a while....”<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Later that night, Beast and Jean made their way into a very fancy mansion in higher Belleville. A Sebastian Shaw was its owner, and he was throwing the fundraiser for the most elite colleges. Only he most renowned professors and scholars attended. VIP Dr Hank McCoy was much admired for his work in bio-chemistry and the study of the X-gene. Closely followed by the up and coming, newly published Dr Jean Grey. Hank in his bow tie and Jean adorned a long <a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140512184623/wolverineandthexmen/images/4/4a/245px-Jean_Grey_animaated.png"" rel=""nofollow"">red satin gown</a> You couldn't miss the huge blue fuzzball. And Jean, looked almost like a supermodel with her astounding figure. She had her arm firmly linked with Hank's, she felt safer that way with all the men ogling her. She spotted Warren's father in the midst of the suits and boots of elderly and middle aged men. <br/><br/>They mingled for a while until everyone in the room fell silent and turns to watch a tall, pale, vampiric looking man enter. Adorned in a long purple tux coat, he was still very intimidating. “Sinister.” Hank mumbles under his breath. Everyone knew his work. But what they did not know was his insane obsession with creating the ultimate mutant. Jean narrows her eyes at him and did her best to avoid him for now. That was until Hank had to leave her side for the spotlight. <br/><br/>Jean was on edge, uneasy. Not only did she feel Sinister's eyes burning through the back of her head, there was the gentleman who was hosting, who had not stopped staring at her all evening. Suddenly she felt all alone. Her heart rate and respiration increasing with each second. She chugged a glass of wine down to calm her nerves. <br/><br/>Sebastian Shaw finally made his way over to the lady in red. “Good evening Dr Grey. I knew your father well, we went to college together. He is quite a remarkable historian. An expert in his field.” <br/><img src=""https://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/c3/1e/b4/c31eb4d3fbf73ecb7e2d448d9003b58b.jpg""/> <br/>“H-How do you know my father from university?” Jean was confused, this man looked in his 30's but he talked as if he went way back with her father who was now in his 60's. <br/><br/>“Surprised my dear? My mutant ability allows me to absorb energy and heal. I don't look at all my age. But with that, comes wisdom don't you think?” His egotistic nature coming across quite strongly.  Jean remained unimpressed, looking around, hoping Hank would hurry up with his speech already. “I see.” Shaw offers her a champagne flute. “I hear you're quite the rising star in the field of genetics.” He swirls his bourbon liquid in his short glass. “Although, I do hope that Harvard will allow you to keep your Doctorate.” He mused as she was taken in by his manipulation. “WHAT?!” This was the first she'd heard. Shaw acts shocked. “Oops. You didn't know yet? Me and my big mouth.” <br/><br/>That was it, Jean was angry, she couldn't tell if he was lying but why would he. She spots the Harvard university headmaster and storms right over to him, causing quite a commotion. “Principal! When were you going to tell me my Doctorate was in question?” She demanded to know, fuming with her hands on her curved hips. The principal was taken aback, he gently took Jean to one side. “I'm really sorry Jean...some of the Executives are doubting your credibility since we found out that you are a mut-....telepath. Some of us feel you may have..used your powers to cheat your way through Harvard.” <br/><br/>Jean couldn't believe it, all her hard work, for nothing? She never once read anyone's mind without their permission, let alone her tutor's during tests or class work. She did her own research and wrote every word herself. But instead of exploding here at the party, she needed some air. Her eyes well up with water and she bursts out of the conservatory doors in floods of tears. The day started badly, but only got worse.<br/> <br/>Shaw smiles to himself. “First we break her into tiny pieces. Then we remake her in our image.” He tells Selene, a member of the Inner Circle. <br/><br/>Outside the Shaw mansion:<br/><br/>“Poor, poor Jean Grey…” Came a dark sarcastic voice behind Jean. Jean turns around wiping away her tears. “Save it Sinister!” She warns him as she backed away from him.<br/><br/>“Do not despair. I come with glad tidings…” His grimace showing his pointed teeth as he laughs menacingly. “I’ve come to offer you the position of Chief of Genetics with my team on Genosha.”<br/><br/>Jean raises an eyebrow at him, sincerely doubting it. “You mean experiment on mutants more like...”<br/><br/>Sinister walks towards Jean, with each step he took, she took one back. “You put it so harshlyyy.”<br/><br/>“Save it Sinister! Not interested.” Jean holds her hand up at him and storms off down towards the mansion's gate, never feeling this angry before. Sinister narrowed his eyes as he watched her leave...</div>"

In the distance he caught sight of three Doom looking robots flying in for assistance.  Which added to Tony's mind file under 'Why does Doom need an escort?'.  Suddenly though his distraction ended up hurting him as the serpent struck down.  Wrapping its strong mouth around his entire upper half.  The serpent pressed down, and Tony could hear his suit just squeak from the pressure.  He had to struggle to get an arm moved from facing out of the serpent's mouth to inside.<br/><br/>Once he could move his arms a bit more he fought hard to not get a first hand education in a magical serpent's internal organs.  Using one arm to grasp the side of the mouth to prevent himself from getting swallowed Tony moved a hand down the serpent's throat with a pulse laser generating in the palm.  “Eat this bitch...”  Tony snarled to himself as the fire caused the serpent to let out a horrifying hissing howl as Iron Man was freed.<br/><br/>Jetting himself out to avoid getting chomped on again Iron Man circled back around and with a bit of finesse grabbed the serpent's head, swinging it around and tying a knot in its body.  He pulled hard, hoping either to choke the serpent out for good, or repeat his head removal surgery trick.  Though before either could happen the serpent seemingly faded from not only his grasp but reality itself.  Leaving Iron Man confused and looking around wondering if he was tripping on something hard at the moment.  Finally he gently landed back on the party scene where things certainly looked a lot less fancy and festive.  Thankfully Victoria was fine, though she seemed rattled in ways Tony hoped she could shake off.<br/><br/>As he came up next to Doom Tony let the suit's helmet slide off as she thanked him.  “Hey if you can't rely on a friend with a multi-million dollar battle suit who can you trust?”  He joked, even though he wondered to himself if this was indeed the time or the place for such a thing.  The guy with the sword was there, as was Doom who looked like he had suit issues.  At least that's what it seemed like he had, Tony glanced over and mulled the details suspiciously as something about it didn't seem right.  Still he figured if nothing else he'll get answers another time.  Dealing with Doom shouldn't be his concern right now.<br/><br/>He talked to the Parringtons and let them know he was willing to help pay for any damages.  Their families were very long time friends, so it was the least Tony could do.  Tony didn't give himself a chance to talk to Victoria and make sure she was alright.  He kicked himself for it later, feeling like a dick for ignoring her when she was clearing having issues.  The brief moment Tony looked for Stane it was clear Stane ditched when everything went to Hell.  Thankfully though Pepper did likewise, but she sent a text to Tony asking if he was alright.  Tony smiled looking at his smartphone before putting it away and jetting off in the Iron Man suit.<br/><br/>“Jarvis send a text to Pepper Potts please, 'I'm fine, the suit handled great.  Just make sure you're at work tomorrow 9 am sharp.  PS Doom is still a dick.  L O L, okay thanks bye.'  Send.”</div>"

Killgrave melded into the wall at his back, the first signs of sweat glistening on his forehead and smooth-shaven face. Melvin Potter stood at the other side of an intersection in the facility, a T-junction connecting the outer corridors and a passage into the receiving bay for deliveries. Coincidence had been married to opportunity when the Shadow Conquerors were formulating this plan - Potter was stationed as a security guard for the side entrance on the west side of the facility, and beyond those doors was the position of the new guard - the late Sokovian that Potter had viciously murdered - and the hallways he was assigned to monitor.  Killgrave was garbed in an identical copy of an official government uniform. It had been one of the foremost issues, as the man chosen for the new guard position was much smaller than Zebediah, and they had no other opportunity to acquire another official outfit. However, Potter had stepped up then, stating with an unperturbed hubris that he was '<span class=""bb-i"">pretty skilled at costume designing</span>'.<br/>The approaching footsteps belonged to, as far as Killgrave could guess, the supervisor of the new guard - and as it was among his first nights of duty there would be some routine inspections to undertake. Potter had mused upon this in one of the preparation lectures, and so each of the operatives were outfitted with silencers for their pistols. Killgrave now gripped the weapon firmly in his hands as the footsteps neared the turning point. He glanced over at Potter, whom indicated with some curt hand gestures that he would distract the oncoming guard. Killgrave nodded in response, just as the body of the government man moved into sight. <br/><br/>""Hey."" Melvin rasped quietly and harshly, causing the guard to jump in shock and fumble for the sub machine gun strapped into a holster about his waist. Killgrave rapidly moved in behind him while the guard was focused on Potter, and he thrust his hand over the man's mouth to stop him from crying out for help. Zebediah precisely jolted the man in the underside of his knee, bringing him down to the rough, white-washed ground beneath them. Potter wasted no time, butting the end of the pistol in the middle of the guard's forehead. The man lay dazed, Killgrave's hand still preventing him from shouting. Melvin Potter shot Zebediah a quick, fairly disturbing look of enjoyment, and then sent a bullet tunnelling through the guard's skull. The two men watched as the corpse's eyes slowly rolled up into the back of his head.<br/>Killgrave stood up and moved on without a word. He pondered to himself, however, why Melvin could not have simply explained himself being in the hallway to the guard and diverted him back towards the warehouse. <span class=""bb-i"">I suppose it's one less hostile to deal with, and it was the most efficient way. Government scum deserve to die anyway.</span> The doubts faded as fast as they had come to him - though he obviously took less pleasure in the act than Potter did. The 'Gladiator' relished killing itself, whereas Killgrave relished only the killings of the ones who had pissed him off: the heads of the Government. Those that had subjected someone directly related to Zebediah to prostitution, the once acquaintances of Killgrave - when he was growing up - to endless labour and meagre reward.<br/><br/>At the end of the long hallway loomed a battered grey door. Melvin was to go no further than it, leaving Killgrave to pass into the expansive receiving bay alone. The experienced Shadow preferred it that way, as stealth only became harder when more bodies inhibited him. The shipment of weapons and the experimental gas were positioned fifty paces away from their entrance door, by a large blue collection of crates, according to Potter's recent intel. The two men stopped by the grey door, turning to each other.<br/><br/>""I won't have to degrade myself by doing this lackey work anymore, Gladiator."" Killgrave stated, partially as a farewell, but also as a patronising insult.<br/><br/>""Good luck."" Potter only chuckled in reply, fondling his silenced pistol as he began to stride back down the hallway, ""You'll need it."" <br/>Zebediah narrowed his eyes at that, but he knew he didn't have a great deal of time in which to operate, so he dismissed it and deftly pushed open the door.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">Three</span></font> men and a woman stood conversing, twenty paces to Killgrave's right as he knelt beside a six-foot high stack of boxes. They were the only ones who would be able to see Zebediah in his journey from the cover that the boxes provided him to the small complex of crates and containers that was the weapons shipment. He scanned the warehouse for a few moments to try and ascertain if there were any other viable routes. He could move to the left thirty paces and progress along a shipping canister, but Killgrave had no idea who or what stood on the other side of the container or how much longer it would take him. Ivan Jankovic had instructed him profoundly that it was to be a fast job, in and out, with as little conflict as possible. The resulting explosions would be enough to kill the entire personnel of the facility, anyway, so neither Killgrave or Potter had too many gripes. He decided, with this in mind, to take a risk and to walk calmly and furtively towards the shipment and as far away from any staff as possible. He had an infallible disguise in the uniform, and the guard's face was surely not known by many of the workers yet. Also, not many in the warehouse would be armed guards, and there was only so much common workers could do to oppose a well-trained operative. <br/>Taking a deep breath, Killgrave rose and strode out from behind the cover. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">The new guard's hair was blonde and mine is a deep black</span>.<br/>He began to retrieve the compact timed explosives from his left outside pocket.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Nobody but the supervisors are permitted near the shipment</span>.<br/>He subtly increased his pace as he approached the outskirts of the containers.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">They will undoubtedly notice me sooner or later.</span><br/>Zebediah reached the cover of a large crate and he instantly crouched down to the floor. He had three timed detonators to plant - silent, devastating variants of a common explosive that the Shadow Conquerors had developed. The expanse of the shipment was only ten metres wide, so Killgrave carefully lay down an explosive at an interval of two paces. His breath ran ragged like a devoted smoker's wheeze - this was one of the hardest jobs Zebediah had been assigned. Most were in larger groups with simpler tasks, however this was what he needed to receive the prominence he deserved. Reinforced suction devices attached themselves to the ground, and Zebediah's controlled fingers designated the countdown of two minutes to begin. <br/><br/>""Hey!"" A woman's shout from close by in the warehouse rang out. <span class=""bb-i"">The woman from the quartet near the door. Shit</span>. The Shadow clung to the floor, slowing his breathing and rapidly forming a plan in his head. He reached for his pistol. Before any confrontation could be made, alas, the muffled whizzing of a bullet cut short the woman's audible approach. Zebediah spun around to see the grey door wide open, Melvin Potter putting bullets into the staff's brains, Ivan Jankovic - Killgrave's superior - standing smugly by the opening, and several heavily armed Shadows filling the corridor behind him. The staff were dead or dying, and the men's attention turned to Killgrave. The young Sokovian knelt, frozen, completely bemused by the events unfolding before him.<br/>He quickly puzzled it out as Potter raised the silenced pistol to him, a twisted smirk on his face.<br/><br/>""Guess I'll be the one getting the promotion, Killgrave."" He snarled, his smirk growing into a grin. A bullet ripped towards Zebediah, and he barely had time to react. It was aimed directly at his heart, though he managed to twist and dive against the targeted point. The pelt tore through his leg, the middle of his left thigh, giving Killgrave the necessary pain to prompt a shriek of agony. Anger at Potter and the men behind him consumed Zebediah as he riled about by the containers. Melvin grunted, dissatisfied with his missed shot, and he took another step forward to aim again.<br/><br/>""No, Gladiator."" It was Jankovic's voice that permeated the thin air. ""Leave him to die."" Zebediah's eyes darted to match the grizzled commander's. The same look of concern and fear that Killgrave had observed in the past few meetings dilated his pupils, revealing the truth to the master of stealth. <span class=""bb-i"">More concerned about me than I thought. He needed to dispose of me</span>. Pain still racked his body, the blood oozing out of his thigh with surprising amounts. <br/><br/>""I'll... k-kill..."" Zebediah hissed, though another shot from Potter's gun stopped him short. His right arm snapped back with the impact, bone and cartilage dying with the bullet now lodged in his elbow. His scream again filled the room. The sounds of oncoming guards echoed. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Gladiator</span>! We're leaving!"" Jankovic moved with curious speed for his age and bulk, dragging Potter back with him towards the door. The Shadows behind them aimed machine guns towards the south-east side of the warehouse, where a frantic susurration emanated. Potter turned a final time, however, a mad look filled with death in his eye. He broke from Jankovic's grip for a second and fired a shot blindly at the shipment. Killgrave did not know what he had done to earn such hate from the Gladiator, or perhaps it was just the thug's apparent obsession with murder. The careening bullet thankfully missed him, and Jankovic threw the large operative back down the hallway before he could cause any more destruction.<br/>Zebediah groaned in agony and tried to drag himself along the ground, but he slipped in the puddle of his own blood.<br/>Then a large canister fell from above and landed heavily onto his chest. A bullet-hole breached the outside of the container. There were so many warning and hazard signs on the outside that Killgrave could barely concentrate on one of them. A strange, preternatural - purple - gas was gushing out of the hole, and the substance was even dissolving the container's material now that it was on the outside. More and more of the gas emerged from the canister, like the tendrils of a demon coming out of it's lair. It did not raise into the air as it should have done. It seemed to locate and focus on Killgrave, with the throngs of purple gas suddenly converging and moving to cover Zebediah's entire body.<br/>The pain of the gunshot wounds was nothing compared to the torment that now afflicted him.<br/>It was if his skin was being ripped away, and replaced by new, foreign material.<br/>It covered his face, his nose, his mouth. His eyes were blinded as the substance went inside his body, into his bloodstream, into his <span class=""bb-i"">brain</span>.<br/>He thrashed about wildly, tears and blood streaming down his face as his life pooled out from his wounds around him. He noticed his left arm through the corner of his vision. A deep, encompassing hue spreading across the muscled skin. Horrifying. Alien.<br/><br/><font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-b"">Purple</span></font>.</div>"

It had been a long night, with the super powered teen tossing ideas back and forth in her head. In the end, America found that she would have to do it. If not, she may never find whoever it was behind the Mutant Growth Hormone distribution. Sure she could always try and find Reed Richards, Tony Stark, or even Hank Pym, but that would waste time that she simply didn’t have. The easiest and quickest solution would be to find a telepath, and if the guy she was considering was anything like his counterparts from across the multiverse, then this day was probably going to end in a similar manner to how it had the day before. Badly.<br/><br/>After showering she dried her now frizzy hair, before pulling on the same t-shirt and shorts that she had worn the day before. She didn’t like having to keep wearing the same clothes every day, but until she could get back to her apartment or go shopping, she was stuck with what she had. Putting the thought out of her head, she approached and window and gazed out over the city. New York was a big place. In fact this entire world was a big place. How the hell would she even find this telepath? He could be anywhere!<br/><br/>Remember the number which S.H.I.E.L.D had given her for emergencies, America flopped back onto the bed. Surely they wouldn’t mind searching their databases for her? Besides, it would help them keep an eye on her location. Save them having to send a bunch of agents parading after her. After taking a second to think this over one last time, America put on her war face and dialled the number. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">★★★★★</div><br/><br/>Luckily America didn’t have far to travel. According to S.H.I.E.L.D, the guy lived over on Staten Island with his parents. She received some good news in the fact that the kid hadn’t come up on their radar before, other than the fact that he was a mutant. Maybe he was different than his counterparts out there in the multiverse. America decided to hold all judgements however until she met him. As for she knew, he could still be a massive dick.<br/><br/>Originally she had planned to take a taxi, or even a bus, although after stepping out of the hotel and witnessing the traffic, America decided to take to the skies instead. Flying was more fun anyway. <br/><br/>Before long, the hero was descending down upon the streets of Straten Island, her eyes darting from the piece of paper in her hand with the address, to the various street signs below her. Navigating to the place wasn’t too difficult and after a few minutes she found herself stopping next to the white picket fence at the bottom of the house’s lawn. Taking a deep breath, she made her way towards the front door, taking note of all the generic lawn ornaments on her way. People actually owned lawn flamingos?<br/>Rapping her knuckles on the door, she soon found herself face to face with a stern looking middle-aged woman, who instantly gave America the impression of being a typical suburban soccer mom. The teen stood for a few seconds, forcing herself to contain her laughter.<br/><br/>“Well?” The soccer mom, who America now decided was probably called Helen, asked demandingly.<br/><br/>“Is your son home, ma’am?“ America asked politely.<br/><br/>At once, the woman turned and bellowed through the house. <br/><br/>“<span class=""bb-b"">Quentin</span>, there’s a girl here for you!” At once, the woman disappeared was the doorway, only to be replaced seconds later by her son. <br/><br/>To say the least, he wasn’t anything like America expected. She had expected to find some kind of rebellious punk sporting a Mohawk and a leather jacket from Grease, not <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/W64akJc.png?1"" rel=""nofollow"">this</a>. America probably wouldn’t have recognised him on the street if it wasn’t for the signature surly look that was painted across his face. That face changed at once however when he spotted America to a look of pure bewilderment, with his eyes narrowing.<br/><br/>“Who the hell are you and why can’t I read your mind?” He asked, his snarky voice almost as demanding as his mother’s. <br/><br/>America smiled. Looks like her psychic defences were working perfectly. <span class=""bb-i""> Fantástico</span>.<br/><br/>“Quentin Quire?” She spoke confidently. “My name is America Chavez, and you’re going to help me find some drugs.”<br/></div>"

While more men hid around that location, these three men would be the welcoming committee for Silvermane’s shipment truck that would be coming any minute now.  They lurked behind their position patiently, waiting for the signal from the scout, who was located ahead of them, that the truck was coming.  While the Rose’s men knew about Silvermane’s shipment and the possibility of that maggia leader to have reinforced that shipment with his own armed men, they never expected any third-party interference.<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">THWIP!  THWIP</span><br/><br/>	Suddenly, out of nowhere, a sticky, white substance covered the firearms that they were holding.  In the matter of seconds, whoever was on the other side of this sticky rope yanked those guns out of their hands, disarming them in the process.  When the three men looked up, they discovered that a young man dressed in a blue and red costume with large white lenses was responsible for taking away their weapons.<br/><br/>	“I don’t know about you, but I was always taught that guns were <span class=""bb-b"">tools</span>, not <span class=""bb-b"">toys</span>!  If you guys cannot play nice, I’m going to have to confiscate these dangerous items from you!”<br/><br/>	“It’s Spider-Man!”  One of the Rose’s men yelled.  The man’s composure was rattled, partially due to the fact that they were ambushed by this superhuman vigilante.  At that very moment, the advance scout’s signal went off, alerting all of the Rose’s men that Silvermane’s shipment was approaching.  Knowing that the element of surprise was a necessity in their plan, the leader of this division of the Rose’s maggia ordered a hold fire.  The plan would be all but moot if they showed their hand by opening fire on Spider-Man.<br/><br/>	Spider-Man webbed up the three firearms that he had apprehended from the men below him and adhered them to the wall, high enough that no one would be able to retrieve them until after the synthetic silk had dissolved.  He then turned his attention back to the men, who had by then already darted away and ducked for cover since they knew that without their weapons, they would be sitting ducks to Spider-Man and any men that Silvermane might have sent.  However, before he could go after the three men, a robust deliver truck pulled up to the loading dock that was located only a few yards away.<br/><br/>	A barrage of gunfire erupted, pelting the vehicle with hundreds of projectiles.  However, nothing seemed to pierce the vehicle.  Even the glass, although chipped and cracked, was still intact.  After the first wave of gunfire ceased, a second wave of bullets were fired.  However, this time the barrage was not aimed at the vehicle, but rather at Rose’s men.  Somehow, Silvermane’s men were privy to the trap, already springing a counterattack against the men who thought they would have an easy prey to ambush.  It was now time for Spidey and his Amazing Friends to spring into action.  While these men were probably all scum, that does not mean that Spider-Man and company did not have to allow them to mow each other down.  Life is precious, even the life of a scumbag.<br/><br/>	Following his courageous leader, Iceman dove straight into the action, steering the ice he was sliding upon towards the space between the two rival gangs. As he did so, his eyes snapped shut briefly as he concentrated, lowering his temperature even further, as well as that of the surrounding area. In an instance frost seemed to coat the ground around the hero as he moved, with him moving up his arms in an attempt to create an icy barrier. The ice responded to his commands, with a small wall of ice forming gradually between the two groups of gunmen. <br/><br/>	Luckily Bobby had managed to evade the gunfire so far, with him steering his ice slide away from the enemy fire. Deciding to give the temporary battlefield another swoop, he veered around, with the ice covered man heading back towards the fray. <br/><br/>	The icy wall, now riddled with holes and cracks seemed to reform as Bobby approached to the young mutants delight, who was now using his spare hand to fire short blasts of frost at both Silvermane’s and the Rose’s men. While most of the blasts seemed to miss due to the a combination of the great distance and the fact that he wasn’t bothering to aim, a few hit their mark, knocking back the occasional mobster and covering them in a thick layer of frost and ice. However he was getting cocky. Silvermane’s men quickly adapted to the situation, with them aiming most of their fire on the mutant who was now circling above them.<br/><br/>	“Iceman, watch out!” Firestar cried loudly, as she moved towards him through the air. <br/><br/>	It was too late though. While Bobby himself wasn’t hit, the spray from one of the men’s automatic submachine guns hit the ice in front of him as it began to form. The ice shattered instantly, causing Iceman to lose both balance and concentration. He stumbled. In seconds the mutant was hurtling towards the ground, the remains of his icy slide falling down behind him.<br/><br/>	Out of almost nowhere, Spider-Man swung towards his fallen friend, racing against time to grab Iceman before his impending collision with the ground.  It was almost as if that infamous night began to repeat over and over again inside Peter’s mind, reminding him of the terrible fate that Gwen had suffered on that night.  Timing his jump, Peter leapt into the air and caught Iceman and then he immediately shot out a webline to steer them away from the men who had put his teammate in such a position.<br/><br/>	“You should be honored, Frosty!  Flash Thompson would have fainted by now due to how much a fanboy he is of mine, despite the great irony in that!”  While Peter was taking Bobby out of harm's way, Firestar flew past them and send a radiation blast in the direction of the men who had knocked Bobby off of his ice slide.  While Angelica did not hit any of the men with her energy attack, the impact it had with the ground around them caused debris to fly up and knock them down onto the ground.  <br/><br/>	Once these men were incapacitated, Firestar began to fly back towards Peter and Bobby so that they could regroup.  However, before she could reach them, a black bola wrapped around her legs.  Although technically this weapon did not hinder Angelica’s flying abilities, she nevertheless turned to see her attacker.  However, she was only greeted with a second flying bola that wrapped around her torso, restricting her arms.<br/><br/>	“Um, guys, my powers aren’t burning through these.”  When Peter turned his head to see Angelica panicking in her distressing situation, he decided to set Bobby down on the ground and head back towards Firestar.  However, once Peter and Bobby became earthbound, several maggia grunts, confused on whom they should be targeting, launched another round of gunfire against the two superhuman teens.  Realizing that he could not just leave Bobby there out in the open, Peter grabbed Iceman again and tried to move him out of the way of the bullets that were whirling past them.<br/><br/>	“Iceman, we need a barrier between us, pronto!”<br/><br/>	“Sure thing, Spidey!” <br/><br/>	At once, Bobby flung up his right arm in the direction of their attackers, with a barrage of ice erupting from the ground between them as he did so. The sound of gunfire remained, although the teens found that there weren’t any more bullets flying past their heads for now, with them instead hitting the icy barrier, sending small chunks of ice everywhere. Outstretching his hand, Bobby send out another beam of ice, using it to reinforce the newly formed barrier.<br/><br/>	With that done he turned his attention back to the more important situation at hand. Angelica. He had watched as she had been hit by the multiple bolas, with him noting that she was evidently in trouble. Now that he wasn’t distracted he managed to take in the whole situation. Bobby and Peter watched in horror as a shadowy figure moved over the now motionless body of Angelica. Evident by the smoke as was hovering around them, the guy had tossed what appeared to be a knockout gas grenade. <br/><br/>	Enraged at the thought of him hurting his best friend, the Bobby darted forward. The ice covered mutant sprinted across the battlefield, raising his arms out in front of him. As he moved, he fired short bursts of ice at the ground before him, which he slid along with ease, building in speed. He had to help her. He had to stop him. <br/><br/>	By now however, the mysterious assailant had noticed the incoming mutant. As he lifted Angelica up and over his shoulder, he seemed to reach for something from his belt. Bobby wasn’t sure what it was exactly, but it was clearly some kind of grenade. Panicking, the young mutant tried to stop as quickly as he could, but it was too late, as the projectile flew towards both him, and the now following Spider-man.<br/><br/>	A flash of blinding light and sound erupted from the device. The sheer shock of it caused Bobby to tumble and fall, with the young mutant rolling across the floor, his arms shooting straight to his eyes and ears in order to block out the pain. The same could be said for Spider-man. Oh Bobby certainly did not want to know what that felt like with Peter’s spider sense!<br/><br/>	A short amount of time passed before Bobby regained his vision again. Fortunately the flashbag had effected a bunch of nearby Maggia Grunts too so the two teenage heroes hadn’t fell prey to gunfire during that “fun filled” surprise. However that was the least of his worries right now. The ice covered mutant raised his head, his eyes darting around the docks. <br/><br/>	This was bad. Both Angelica and her kidnapper were gone.<br/><br/>	“Angelica…” Bobby managed to utter the words, his eyes now fixated on where he had last spotted hi friend. His heartbeat was increasing past, his hands shaking wildly, causing several pieces of his icy armour to drop to the floor.<br/><br/>	“Peter, what do we do?” The young mutant asked, his voice full of panic and pain. “What the fuck do we do?!”<br/><br/>	Peter dragged himself back on his feet, trying to push through the massive headache that had been caused by the hyperstimulation of his senses.  “Don’t worry, Frosty.”  Peter rubbed his head, as if that would do anything for his major headache, “I know just the person who would know about any shady-looking costumed vigilante.  Just follow my lead.”<br/><br/>	Peter then leapt into the air, swinging up to the roof of the nearest building.  However, once he leaded, instead of shooting out another strand of artificial silk, Peter bent over and grasped his head.  “Maybe we could rest a few minutes before we head out.”</div>"

His old...tool?.. The 'Enchantress' was still alive after all these years and it was quite clear that she was still rather sore about the fact that he hadn't delivered on the whole Thor thing. As much has he had insulted her for being unoriginal and a leech when it came to her abilities and her plans, Loki knew for a fact that Amora was no fool and was a rather talented sorceress in her own right; She was just highly undisciplined and focused more on the control of others then building up her own strength. His insults had simply been a rather simple ploy to get under her skin and keep her focused on <span class=""bb-i"">Him</span> rather then letting her focus her attention and magic on people less suited to counter it. <br/><br/>He was going to have to hunt her down at some point...<br/><br/>The sudden lack of snakes helped cool the burning in his eyes, but Loki had already been planning to find a bathroom somewhere so that he could scrub the hell out of them with water until the pain stopped when the strange woman... Victoria the Valkyrie helped him. Rubbing his eyes a little to wipe away the water that had already been pooling there, Loki took a good, hard and long look at Victoria. If Amora's taunts were to be believed, Victoria and Sigyn where connected in some way if not the same person. This would need to be looked into further later. <br/><br/>""<font color=""#00a651"">Thank you Ms Valkyrie. I do apologize for Amora. The old hag was never one to let someone else hold the spotlight. Be thankful she didn't try to sing; Even magic can only do so much to cover up a complete lack of talent after all.</font> Loki joked good naturally. After everything that had happened, a small joke to try and lighten the mood a bit would hopefully not be misplaced.<br/><br/>Turning to Dr.Doom, Loki's smile seemed to fade a little into a more neutral expression. Due to the mask, it would have been impossible to judge if the Ruler of Latveria was surprised when Loki started to speak flawlessly in his natural tongue but in the end it didn't really matter if he was or not as long as he understood the message. ""'<font color=""#00a651"">I have watched your rulership of Latveria for a while now with great interest Doctor Victor Von Doom. While the world may judge you a petty tyrant on a power trip, I recall those whom came before you and know for a fact that you are a ruler who deserves a great deal of respect for what you are attempting to do for your people. I suspect that we will meet again and that you have only just began to create a great legacy. I wish you well Dr Doom.</font>'""<br/><br/>Allowing the two of them to head off, Loki offered Mr Stark a polite nod of the head when he saw the boy glance his way before going over to join the Doom Bots in helping people. Even without the use of magic, his natural strength would aid in the removal of rubble from those trapped underneath while his magics were reserved for more... troublesome cases were pure strength wasn't the answer to remove someone safely or if they had injuries that they needed healed immediately. He always made sure that he was smiling, talking to those that he rescued as if this was just something that happened often and even cracked a few small, tasteful jokes here and there. He had promised to try and make this as good an evening as possible after all.   <br/><br/> </div>"

Night had fallen over the docks, and most of the people who worked legitimate jobs were home at this hour. All that was left were the scum of the earth, easy pickings for James Howlett. Wolverine hid within the shadows, careful to not reveal himself when a pair of men in suits carrying assault rifles passed by his perch. Professional killers. Just like the guys who had been protecting Henry Jenkins, the scumbag in charge of this sick circuit. Wolverine had made sure Jenkins got what he deserved before heading over to the docks to save the kiddies locked up in the basement. Logan waited until the patrol had passed out of earshot before sliding down the shipping containers and dashing across the street behind a pile of loose steel beams. He took a whiff of the air, separating the various smells that entered his nose. Logan identified ten more individuals surrounding the warehouse, with the last two mobile around the dock. Aside from the smell of fish, oil and rust, Wolverine could smell the kids. All one hundred and twenty three of 'em. Logan was a little surprised to hear that only twelve men were needed to watch over so many mutants. After all, Wolverine could take an army all on his lonesome. Maybe, he theorized, Jenkins' bosses only wanted the more docile or harmless mutants for Trask. Wouldn't make sense to protect a shipment of a small horde of bulletproof kids with laser vision using only twelve guys.<br/><br/>But back to the mission at hand. Wolverine reached into one of various pouches on his belt and pulled out a watch. Three in the morning. He'd have at least two or three hours before anyone showed up for work at the warehouses. Good. In that amount of time, Logan should be able to get all these kids out and to Romulus' people. The boss said he was goin' ta find out where the kids' parents were and send 'em home, so long as that's what they wanted. Of course he was going to try and recruit whoever he could, but there wasn't enough room in Team X's safehouse for a hundred and twenty three super powered brats. Anybody willin' to take in that many mutant kids would have to be crazy.<br/><br/>He slipped the watch back inside the pouch. Wolverine pulled his mask down tighter around his face, before sliding out from behind the cover of the steel beams and making his way towards the warehouse. Shimming along the side of the building, Logan spotted a sturdy pipe leading from below ground to the roof. Weapon X tested his weight against the pipe; once he was sure the metal construct was secure enough to hold all three hundred pounds of weight Logan was carrying around, the assassin ascended to the roof. A mouse would have been jealous of Logan's stealth. The roof of the warehouse was completely flat. A blessing and a curse for Wolverine. On one hand, he wouldn't need to worry about accidentally falling off. On the other hand, the two patrolling guards wouldn't have any trouble spotting Logan when they looped back around for another pass. With this fact in mind Logan moved swiftly. He slid open one of half a dozen skylights that dotted the old structure, slipping inside and landing on a raised walkway.<br/><br/>Now that Wolverine was inside, he had a clear view of the interior of the warehouse. The top floor had seven guards inside with three more guards in the basement. Two of the seven were positioned on the upper walkways, where Logan was now perched. They would have to go first. Wolverine disappeared into the shadows as one of the armed guards rounded the corner and stepped into his line of sight. The unsuspecting trooper received three claws through the face. Logan dragged the body into the darkness and dashed across the walkway. The second guard leaned against a stack of crates, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it. The distracted combatant made easy prey for Wolverine. With the walkways clear of spying eyes, Logan had a chance to locate the remaining criminals. Five more scumbags dotted the warehouse. Two of said scumbags ran into each other and decided to spark up a conversation.<br/><br/>""Hey Joe,"" One of the thugs asked, clutching his assault rifle to his chest. ""Did ya hear anythin'...Weird..Earlier?""<br/><br/>""Nah, man. You?"" Joe replied casually. This seemed to offset the other guard. ""Yeah. Sounded like somebody was gurglin' water. Freaked me out, so's I went to check it out. Didn't see nothin'."" Joe just shrugged. ""You're hearing things."" The guard shook his head furiously. ""No way, dude. Heard it clear as day. You think it was one of our boys kicking the bucket?"" The guard looked up, worried about the two men assigned to the walkways. The guard tried to scream; but alas, he was too slow. Wolverine fell down from the rafters and decapitated the two guards simultaneously. Blood sprayed all over Logan, who didn't so much as grunt at the sickening display. ""Holy shit!"" Wolverine's head turned at a hundred miles per hour at the sudden exclamation. Half an instant later bullets started to fly. One of the guards had discovered Logan's presence, and watched him kill two of the guards!<br/><br/>""Hmph.""<br/><br/>Wolverine slammed forward like a freight train. Bullets sunk into the charging mutant, but that didn't stop Logan's rampage. He sliced the gun in half with his Adamantium claws before doing the same to the man holding the gun. The final two guards appeared, opening fire as well. They tried to drop the mutant with everything they had. But Wolverine wasn't goin' down that easy, cutting out both guards' throats and letting them drown in their own blood. Now to find the basement entrance. Logan scanned the warehouse floor and noticed a nearby staircase leading downwards. He moved like a shade down the stairs. His speed was incredible. When Wolverine reached the bottom of the stairs, he kicked the metal emergency door off its hinges and caused the thing to fly across the room. The basement was pretty standard. A furnace, a conveyor belt, some crates, and a couple of holding cells with superpowered kids inside.<br/><br/>The remaining three guards turned their attention towards the stairs. Yet when the first one turned around, Wolverine was gone. What?! Where'd he go?! A blood curdling scream caused the guard's skin to crawl as he turned around once more. His fellow mercenaries were both on the floor, eviscerated and mutilated.  Logan chopped off both the man's arms, roaring like an animal. The man cried out in pain and fell to his knees. Wolverine shot his knee forward. The sheer force of the attack caused the target's nose to be pushed so far back into his skull that his nose pierced his brain, killing him.<br/><br/>Terrified screams and the sound of crying brought Logan's mind back into the present. Reminded him of the job he was here to do. Wolverine turned towards the caged children, slicing off the locks on their cages. Utterly and completely afraid of their savior the mutants immediately ran for the exit with no regard for the others. Wolverine stood in silence until the room was emptied out.<br/><br/>Another job well done, he'd guess.<br/><br/>Agents of Romulus were waiting outside dressed as police officers and paramedics. They would help the kids. Get them back to their parents, if they desired. The more powerful of them would be tagged and observed, while the weaker ones would be treated of their injuries and released back into the world. So long as they were kept out of Bolivar Trask's filthy little hands, Romulus didn't care what they did. But really, who did?</div>"

Something about him made her want to hug him desperately as if she had missed him all of her life, yet punch him at the same time, or possibly tear his limbs off. Deep inside of her, dark thoughts and emotions quickly rose to the surface. Reminiscent of a time of extreme hardship and grief, someone she didn't want to be. A conflict of emotions she didn't understand. Amora called her Sigyn – could this be connected to Loki? SHIELD might hold more answers. But this enchantress...she needed to track her down and get answers from her as well. She tried to kill her parents and this was not to be tolerated by the Valkyrie's own sense of justice. <br/><br/>For now, her priority was to protect Lord Doom at all cost. She acknowledged her ward with a nod of the head, her unmoved winged silver circlet firmly held in place around her dark curly locks. “Of course, Lord Doom. We shall make haste to your Embassy at once.” Sheathing her sword into her belted guard, she then looked around for any more possible threats. She had to be cautious on leaving the grounds. <br/><br/>As she escorted Doom from the mansion gate border, she couldn't help but turn around and look at the God of Mischief once more. Her eyes narrow upon his sight. Watching him remove rubble like it was nothing. He had strength. Similar to that of hers. And that feeling of familiarity around him? She would need to get to the bottom of it. He could be a potential enemy to these Earthlings, of which she was considering that she was not one of those anymore. But then WHAT was she? Asgardian? Magic? Amora called her a Goddess. Victoria Parrington, daughter to mortals? A Goddess? Hardly likely.  <br/><br/>However the reality, she knew that deep down she could not trust this Loki character...but something in her wanted to believe she could. He didn't seem threatening or malicious. Perhaps there was only one out there who could convince her that Loki was bad news and reveal the truth. <br/><br/>Putting it to the back of her mind for now, she proceeds to escort Doom to a private black car with black tinted windows so that nobody could see who it was inside. “If you would stay inside the car at all times please My Lord, I'll escort you from the air.” Her wings spread and with one flap she propels herself skyward and remains at a hover until the car started to move. There she could monitor traffic and any incoming threat she could immediately deal with, armed and dangerous. Natalia taught her instincts well. And FalCap America taught her to fly with supreme confidence. It was the only thing that truly brought her any joy anymore after all that had changed. <br/><br/>--- <br/><br/>A few months ago:<br/><br/>A nervous Victoria stood on top of the SHIELD HQ building, one foot leaning slightly over the edge. She holds one leg over the side and reaches out slowly towards Sam, her wings were extended. She suddenly retracts and jumps back onto the building's flat surface. “No I cant do this! I'm going to fall!”<br/><br/>But Captain America, her mentor and leader, told her that he would never let her fall. She trusted him. He held out a gloved hand toward her with a smile that she knew was genuine. He wouldn't lie to her. And she trusted her instinct, she took his hand and he gently lead her to the edge, he steps off and she follows suit. She expected to drop and she was scared, her eyes closed tightly shut. <br/><br/>Upon opening them, she found herself hovering in the air. Her magical wings were flapping away, keeping her in the air. All of her fears suddenly dissipated into nothing and she let out the most joyous laugh. She hugged Sam in the air. She couldn't believe it. The power of flight was indeed a freeing occasion. <br/><br/>And the two would have many flight sessions to help her gain control of her wings and agility. She would be forever thankful to the man who brought her the enjoyment of flight. Although, she could do it unaided, she'd still prefer to have that flying companion by her side. Someone who could share that same sense of joy that nobody else could feel. Nowadays, she would find herself flying alone. She just hoped that Cap was alright out there in the Savage Lands. She didn't want to lose a good friend. </div>"

Once the turret had exploded from the energy beam, Scott dove to one side, dodging the rounds of ammunition that one of the other turrets shot at him.  Rolling into a knelling stance, Cyclops pressed a button on his visor, releasing yet another beam at the turret that was just targeting him.<br/><br/>	Then, several robotic training dummies appeared from trap doors in the Danger Room’s floor.  They rushed at Scott while he shot lower-powered concussive blast that knocked each individual robot onto the ground, disabling them in the process.  However, since there were more opponents than Scott could down before they all reached him, Scott was overrun by them.  While he tried to put a fight up against them, swinging his fists at them, the training robots swarmed him.  Now, they had pulled Cyclop’s arms behind his back while one of the robots was preparing for the finishing blow and the rest gathered around in a circle.<br/><br/>	“You think I need to touch my visor to use my powers?”  Cyclops taunted them with a cocky attitude, “If that what you think, you’re in for a rude awakening.”  Scott compressed both of his thumbs on triggers located on his gloves.  He swept his head from one side to the other, blasting all of the robots that were standing in front of him.  He was about ready to break out of the grasp of the two robots that held his hands behind his back, but the robots suddenly powered down and the Danger Room training program powered down.<br/><br/>	A red strobe light flashed inside the Danger Room, alerting Cyclops that something important needed his attention.  This fact was confirmed when he heard the Professor telepathically communicate with him.  “Cyclops, meet the others in the War Room.”<br/><br/>	Scott rushed out of the Danger Room and headed towards the War Room, where the Professor would prep his X-Men before sending them out on any kind of mission.  When Scott arrived there, he saw that the Professor was already seated in his wheelchair in front of the holographic projector that was positioned in the center of the room.  Next to him stood Storm, who was already suited up for the X-Men’s next mission.<br/><br/>	“Well, we can get started while we wait for Colossus and Nightcrawler to arrive.”  Professor X placed on his hand on the side of his hand, sending out a telepathic message to the two absent X-Men so that they could ‘hear’ what he has been saying.    Meanwhile, the holographic projector pulled up a satellite image of the Eastern Seaboard, with a focus on New England.  “As we all know, Senator Kelly has made his position on Mutants perfectly clear at this point.  However, that doesn’t mean we should ignore any threat on his life because of his hateful views towards people like us.”<br/><br/>	“Today, Senator Kelly was scheduled to hold a rally in Boston to bolster his chances as becoming the Republican presidential nominee.  However, Cerebro has just picked up a mutant disturbance in the general vicinity of the Senator’s location.  From the information taken from local news outlets by Cerebro, it seems that our friends in the Brotherhood has decided to crash the party.  Cyclops, I would like you to…”<br/><br/>	However, Colossus suddenly burst into the War Room, a worried expression painted across his face.  “Professor, Kurt is missing!  I checked his room before I came down here, but he wasn’t there.  I searched everywhere for him, but our blue imp is nowhere to be found!”<br/><br/>	Professor X placed both of his hands on the side of his head, focusing to see if he could find his missing student without the aid of Cerebro.  However, the Professor could not find Nightcrawler within the range of his telepathic abilities.  “Let’s see if the mansion’s security footage can shed some light on where Kurt might have gone.”  After he had uploaded the security footage on the holographic projector, the video feed appeared before the four X-Men.  While there were not cameras inside his student’s individual room, for privacy reasons, there was a camera placed in the dormitory hallway that lead to the bedrooms.<br/><br/>	After the Professor fast-forwarded through several hours of video, he finally allowed the video to run at normal speed when he saw a red and blue figure appear on the screen.  One moment, he was walking into Nightcrawler’s room.  The next, he had Kurt in a headlock as they exited the bedroom.  Before the figure forced Nightcrawler to teleport outside of the X-Mansion, the figure looked up directly at the camera, revealing the large white lenses that were framed by a black trim on the figures mask.<br/><br/>	“Why would Spider-Man come all the way to Westchester to kidnap Nightcrawler?”  Cyclops asked the Professor.<br/><br/>	However, the Professor sat in silence for a few moments, collecting his thoughts before he spoke.  “I don’t know, Scott.  But I do know that we will have to change our tactics now, since our ranks will be spread then.  Cyclops, you take Colossus and head down to Manhattan.  I’ll assist you two in locating Spider-Man through my telepathic abilities.  Hopefully we can resolve this issue without any violence.”  Then the Professor turned to Storm.  “Storm, take the Blackbird and pick up Jean and Hank McCoy.  I’ll telepathically alert them to the situation before your arrive.”<br/><br/>	As soon as the three X-Men knew their missions, they all rushed to either the Black Bird or the X-Mansion’s vehicle garage.  While Cyclops, Colossus, and Storm were leaving, Professor X used his telepathic abilities to contact Jean Grey.<br/><br/>	“Jean, I’m sorry to interrupt the fundraiser, but I’m afraid we need you elsewhere.  Please excuse yourself from the party and politely ask Hank to come along with you.  Unfortunately, we are having a small problem with man-power at the moment and we need every man we can get.  Storm will rendezvous with you in the Blackbird”.<br/><br/>	Then, Charles Xavier tried to determine Spider-Man’s location.  However, every time he tried to use his telepathic powers, Professor X kept tripping something that was like an alarm.  While this “alarm” did not prevent him from finding his location, it somehow allowed Spider-Man to know that someone was trying to get inside his head.  Knowing that he could not continue to pry Spider-Man’s mind for his whereabouts, he decided to use his powers to see where Bobby and Angelica were.  He knew that the two had teamed up several times in the past.  In fact, today they went down to Manhattan so that they could “hang out” for a while.<br/><br/>	Therefore, using his mutant powers, Professor X discovered that Bobby was with Spider-Man at that moment.  However, so that he would not alert Spider-Man to their little ‘investigation, Charles Xavier decided not to alert Iceman to the situation.  However, it was peculiar that Angelica was not with them.  Something seemed very odd about this situation. </div>"

She had a feeling she wouldn't see the last of him though. Nor Sebastian Shaw. Two people entwined within Jean Grey's fate.<br/><br/>She made her way back into the party and spots Hank trying to argue with the Harvard Professors on behalf of Jean's case. She didn't want to think about them right now. The X-men were in trouble and they needed their help. ""Doctor McCoy."" She walks upto his side and grabs his arm. ""I need you to come with me please. There's been a small incident at home."" She couldn't tell him anymore than that, she herself didn't know the details. She pries him away from the other scholars as he gently bowed upon leaving the fundraisers. <br/><br/>""Jean, whatever has happened I'm sure we can resolve it."" Hank implores as he takes off his reading glasses and pops them in his top pocket. Jean leads him out of the mansion. ""Storm is coming to pick us up in the Blackbird. Something must have happened, the Professor wouldn't normally contact us at this late hour."" She ponders with worry. She could sense an urgency in Charles's voice.<br/><br/>Hank nods. ""Hmm. Let's find somewhere more discreet for the rendezvous. We dont wish to alert the neighbours. I believe there's a park nearby.""<br/><br/>Jean agreed. If average people saw what these group of mutants had at their disposal, there would be upheaval and unrest toward the integrity of these so called human loving mutants. As they got the park, the Blackbird was silently landing in stealth mode. The ramp comes down and Jean and Hank quickly run up it and into the plane's main body.<br/><br/>There they were greeted by Storm at the helm. ""Good evening Ororo. Do you wish me to take over?"" Hank asks the white haired goddess of the skies. Storm replies with a kindly decline. ""I got it Hank.""<br/><br/>Jean goes to a locker and begins to suit up behind a small screen. ""What's the situation Storm?"" Her voice calls out behind it. All Hank needed to do was shed his tuxedo jacket to reveal his muscled gorilla like blue fuzzy chest.<br/><br/>""Kurt has gone missing. And Senator Kelly has been attacked, by who we think is the Brotherhood. We're going to investigate.""<br/><br/>""Oh great. That is the last thing we need. More reasons to hate mutants.""

Hank sat in the co-pilot seat as Jean came to stand between Storm and Beast to watch where they were flying. She herself had learned to use the Blackbird's controls recently. She did need more flight time though. Storm, Beast and Cyclops were its most frequent pilots. <br/><br/>""Then it's time we taught them a lesson in manners."" Storm remarks as she flew the Blackbird down toward Manhattan.<br/><br/>""I'm worried about Kurt. I hope he's alright..""

There was no way the 3D Man could take on a giant man on his own, so waiting to catch him off guard would be the most advantagious course of action. He watched the hero for awhile, when not engrossed in battle with villains the heroes seemed a bit boring. That's when Derek noticed something a bit odd. Several civilians making a crowd were actually Skrulls in disguise outside of Williams Innovations. That's when it got even more strange to the Three Dimensional Man. A supervillain, or rather another Skrull in disguise, made himself known and a battle ensued between the 'hero' Atlas and the 'villain' Dragon Man.<br/><br/>""Why the ruse?"" Derek asked himself before seeing it.<br/><br/>During all of the chaos and confusion at least two of the Skrulls disguised as civilians got into the Williams building. Its owner and CEO Simon Williams watched from his upper level office seeing Atlas grow to about twenty feet tall to fight the roughly thirteen feet tall Dragon Man who's wings expanded at least twenty five feet. It was like an average sized man swatting away at a winged child. That's when a window crashed and the 3D Man stood before Williams himself. <br/><br/>""Sir, I don't know how to put this but you and you're company are in danger..."" Derek began to say.<br/><br/>""I think that guy outside is taking care of the problem."" Williams said in response.<br/><br/>""That guy outside is part of the problem, sir. That hero, the villain, and even some of the civilians down in the street are shapeshifters. They're most likely looking into your alternate power sources research and development."" 3D Man continued with Tri-force energy emitting from his eyes. <br/><br/>""That's impossible, I pay for top of the line security and outside of idiots in t-shirts who think they're superheroes.."" Williams began saying getting a little aggravated when security alarms began to go off.<br/><br/>""What was that you were saying?""

He would never have chosen one, having gone for a more useful vehicle however apparently those with status when they did not want to drive themselves sat in the back of one such vehicle. So he'd conform to the stereotype. Once they arrived at the Embassy he waved the car away, the gate opened for him straight away and he smiled at the sight of the embassy. Typical latvarian architechture, building materials and foliage. The garden itself cost a small fortune, which he paid for completely by himself. He signalled for Valkyrie to land and walk beside him, the four doom bots upon catching up moved themselves into the building to go and recharge. ""What do you think of the estate Lady Parrington?

It restrained him like nothing else could. He could writhe with fury, with all his strength. It mattered not. The darkness held him, for it chained his shadow to darkness. If he was not visible, then he could not move. In pitch blackness, he could <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> move. Nebulo screamed silently in one of the rooms of the abandoned tenement. He had stayed too long in the constantly dimming room. Now it was too late. He should have stayed close to one of the others, for they needed light, fire, all counters to darkness. He should have stayed outside where the ubiquitous galaxy's light cast Nebulo far down the paths, making him huge and powerful. Yet, he had made a mistake, and now escape was impossible. Oblivion chained him until the light came.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/>Leonus stalked the decaying, glum back streets of New York City. He hungered more than he usually did, maybe because of the insurmountable influx of new potential prey in the area. He also wanted to escape from the others for a while. Their presence was at best irritating to him. That was one of the main differences between Leonus and his pantherine counterparts - they hunted in packs, Leonus hunted alone. Before Terrigenesis, Leonus had always been a loner - a bookworm, in fact, a boy that nobody wanted anything to do with. No fun. The Inhuman process had changed him, however, had shown him his true form. Whatever he had been before was irrelevant, a testing of the waters before the headlong plunge in. He was a lone wolf... or rather, a lion. Yet he hunted with all the combined might of a horde of beasts.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/>She rested her eyes along with the rest of them. There was a certain camaraderie to sleeping among the flora in which Timberia now shared so many traits. The solemn moonlight cast a pleasant glow among her and her family. It calmed her most effectively, clearing her mind of all interfering thoughts. Shamefully, the bulky Leonus often occupied her mind - filling her with thoughts of lust and desire. She did not even know how a relationship between the two would work, yet that did not stop her from acting erratically when the feline man was around her. She had neglected a friendship with Falcona because of Leonus' bristling hate for her. It was those two who had each vied for control within the group - Falcona with her noble and more diplomatic aims and Leonus with his disdainful aggressiveness against humanity. Timberia had sided with the latter in an attempt to make him appreciate her, but unfortunately his emotions rarely strayed towards friendliness. Despite the obvious impossibility of him returning her lust, she feared she would stay stalking the feral man until it was no longer possible for her to do so.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/>Stallior had taken matters into his own hands. He had left Attilan with a mission, bestowed upon him by Master Triton. The aquatic Inhuman had always lectured the young denizens of the Great Refuge about peace - with humanity, and with themselves. He spoke against Gorgon and Karnak's fondness of conflict. He had told the children of noble and intelligent humans, those that could theoretically understand the civilisation of the Inhumans. Stallior's favoured message from him had always been '<span class=""bb-i"">We can look alien to them on the outside, but Terrigenesis is a process that can not breach the souls we share with the humans.</span>' It had of course been said in Triton's guttural and broken speech, but a translator had been on hand to assist. As much as it pained to admit it, however, many Inhumans were anathema to his Master's message. If sould held the personalities and the core of a person, then why does Terrigenesis alter not only appearance, but even personality in some cases? Stallior had known Leonus before the ritualistic tradition. He had known a timid but well-meaning boy, accompanied always by a book or scripture. Now... Terrigenesis had irrevocably breached his soul. Master Triton certainly was wise and the perfect example of a pacifist, but some of his teachings were illusions to soften the knowledge of the hate that humanity would undoubtedly harbour for the Inhumans.<br/><br/></div>"

Luckily he had lost the Velociraptors long ago, and now it was just a case of getting into the facility. Kicking ass, taking names and taking out the anti-air. Then they could bring in the troops and wrap up. Fury was probably already close with the troops, so there was no real time too lose. He lowered his right hand to his thigh, a pistol extending automatically into his grip he then lifted his shield off his back and held it in his right hand, he wasn't as much off a fan of the shield as other renditions of Captain America had been however it had been part of the uniform since the original Steve Rogers. <br/><br/>Though it did have it's uses. <br/><br/>Leaning forward slightly, he fired the jets from his pack casting him up into the air. However instead of extending his wings he let himself drift, slowing rapidly. Curling himself into a small shape shield facing the ground, when he slowed so that the air wasn't whistling into his ears he could hear the shouting, gun shots began ringing and he could feel them hitting the shield. He just had to time this right, able to see slightly beyond the shield he turned himself down into a roll, pistol extended past the shield the moment he stopped loosing two shots into the closest guard, then worked his way clockwise hitting the guard to his two o'clock while the shield covered his left flank. Finishing the guard in a double tap he rolled and took out the two on the other side. <br/><br/>Alarms were going off already, no doubt people scrambling too get to the roof. He put his pistol down and took a piece of plastic explosive. Running over to the AA turret he placed the explosive on it's base before picking his pistol up again. Wouldn't do to set it off yet, no the longer he kept them distracted the better. Though there was something that seemed... <span class=""bb-i"">off</span> about these A.I.M guards. Taking what little time he had before they reached the roof he lifted the hood off the nearest goon. He was alive, heavy breathing. Though his eyes seemed distant, hollow. Slightly greyed as if he were in some kind of a trance.<br/><br/>He heard the nearby door open, turning his shield to face the new threat he was met by a hail of bullets. Something wasn't quite right, beyond the obvious. There was more at work than met the eye, first the sloppiness then the apparent trance and the fact if they were A.I.M normally they would have tried to bug out by now, trying to keep their name intact and free off being tarnished.</div>"

Why did Quentin Quire have to be such an asshole? She was currently sat in the kid’s room, having just explained who she was and what was going on. Well, she didn’t tell him everything. Certainly not everything about her past, but she kept the key points, as well as enough to keep the story somewhat realistic. Yet the little punk still didn’t believe her. To be fair, that was partly her fault. Months ago, after an incident with another telepath, America had taken up some psychic defence classes, thus meaning that Quire can’t read her mind. <br/><br/>Not wanting to waste any more time, America rose from her seat and glared at the mutant.<br/><br/>“I’m not <span class=""bb-i"">loco</span>, Quire.” She said, rubbing her temple in frustration. <br/><br/>Quentin simply laughed in response. “That’s what all the crazies say you bitc..”<br/><br/>Before he could finish, America had darted forward, her hand outstretched. Pushing hard, she shoved the mutant into the wall with such force that the drawers and shelves around the room shook for a brief second, dust floating off the tacky furniture as it did so. <br/><br/>“Don’t make me hurt you, <span class=""bb-i"">Chico</span>.” America growled threateningly.<br/><br/>After recovering quickly from the force and pain, Quentin took a second to catch his breath, before glaring into the girl’s eyes. Instead of the look of sheer panic that America had been expecting, a grin flashed across his face.<br/><br/>“Oh will you now? I highly doubt that.” He sneered. “You see <span class=""bb-i"">Ms. America</span>, unlike most of my pitiful generation, I happen to watch the news. I’m fully aware of what you’re capable of due to that little stunt you pulled yesterday downtown. How many people was it that you nearly killed during that fight, again?”<br/><br/>America tightened her grip angrily at the comment, her brow furrowing. <br/><br/>“I’m pretty sure I saw S.H.I.E.L.D. take you in after that. Yes, I know who S.H.I.E.L.D. are. I’m a genius after all. Now, I’m pretty sure that they won’t be too keen to hear that you’ve put yet another life in danger, right?”<br/><br/>America paused for a few seconds, before loosening her grip slightly. The kid was right. S.H.I.E.L.D. was still watching her. For all she knew, they could be camped out right outside in a van across the street, watching. She didn’t want to get on their bad side again. She knew full well what they were capable of if motivated. However she needed Quire. He was her last hope.<br/><br/>“Please Quire…” She managed, still trying to maintain her anger. “I need you.”<br/><br/>“Well too fucking bad.”<br/><br/>He was enjoying this. The annoying prick was really enjoying all of this. America could see the sheer joy in his eyes. Now that was the Quentin Quire she knew. He literally gets off of attention and manipulation. He was completely in control here, and he certainly knew it. There was no way she was going to get him to help; he was having too much fun. <br/><br/>That was when America had an idea. She let go of the teenager, causing him to drop back onto his feet. He appeared confused at the action, with the confusion increasing when America began to step away. <br/><br/>“That’s too bad then, I guess.” She began, shrugging her shoulders in acceptance. “I guess I’m not surprised. I mean, all the other you’s I met wouldn’t have done a thing either! I guess you’re just as predictable Quentin.” <br/><br/>With that, she turned on her heel and headed towards the door. <br/><br/>“Wait!” Quentin called, panic in his voice. “What.. what do you mean? Where are you going now then?”<br/><br/>America smirked slightly, before turning back to the mutant. “I don’t know! Maybe the X-men?”<br/><br/>Then she was gone. America moved back through the house quickly, giving the mutant’s parents a quick wave as she passed through the hall. In seconds she began to cross the lawn. Once she was halfway across however, she began to count.<br/><br/>“3…2…1”<br/><br/>Instantly, the front door burst open behind her. Out stumbled Quentin, with the young mutant rushing to catch up to the hero, pulling on a coat as he did so.<br/><br/>“Wait!” He called, as he raced up behind her. “I’ll do it!” <br/><br/>So predictable. </div>"

However, since Kelly had made the mutant ‘problem’ a primary focus of his campaign, it was just a matter of time before a radical group of mutants would show up and shut him up.  It just so happened that the group that happened to crash the party was none other than the Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy.<br/><br/>	“Don’t anyone try anything funny, mates?”  Pyro shouted out to the crowd, “One wrong move and then BOOM, your toast!”  Pyro then raised his arms up into the air and shot out two streams of flames into the air, showing what he meant by that they would be ‘toast’.<br/><br/>	“Don’t sweat over it, Pyro.  I already handled it.”  Lorelei said as she walked past Pyro and towards the Parkman Bandstand, where their target, Senator Kelly, was standing.  When Pyro peered again at the crowd, he noticed that all the men in the audience, who had come out to see Kelly speak, were now restraining everyone else in the park.  Lorelei had a special gift that could allow her to persuade almost any man to follow her bidding.  Even the officers and the security guards succumbed to her powers.    It is quite useful power when half the human population, give or take a percentage or two, is male.  However, Pyro wondered whether she has used her powers on him and the other guys in the Brotherhood just for laughs.  “Well, at least she’s own our side.”  Pyro thought.<br/><br/>	“Shouldn’t we be watching the windows of the buildings across the street?  If those crime shows have taught me anything, it is that they’re going to be placing marksmen up there to snipe us!”  Toad complained while scanning the upper-levels of the buildings that he had just mentioned.<br/><br/>	“That shouldn’t be a problem.”  Avalanche pointed both of his hands in a fist towards the upper stories of those buildings, sending out vibrations that shattered the glass windows, which caused shards of glass to rain down onto the street below.  “Problem fixed.”<br/><br/>	“Has anyone seen Blob?”  Pyro said as he scanned the crowd for his ‘super-sized’ ally.  ""I haven't seen him in a while.  Where the heck could he have gone?""  However, when he felt a slight quake, he knew that the Blob was close by.<br/><br/>	“Tastes like chicken.  Yum.”  Pyro heard the Blob state aloud as he chewed on something.<br/><br/>	“Blob, please don’t tell me you ate someone.  That’s gross, even for you.”  Pyro exclaimed in disgust.<br/><br/>	“What?  No!  I was talking about these tiny nuggets that fast food chains pass off as chicken.”<br/><br/>	“You didn’t ransack the Mickey D’s that’s a block or so away, did you?”  Toad asked.<br/><br/>	“Being evil <span class=""bb-b"">always</span> makes me hungry!  I just cannot help myself!”<br/><br/>	Meanwhile, Lorelei was returning where the ‘boys’ were, followed closely behind by two hypnotized guards who were dragging Senator Kelly along with them.<br/><br/>	“I’m a United States Senator and a potential candidate for the President of the United States.  Killing me would only prove my point that you all are a danger to society and a threat to national security!”<br/><br/>	“Who said anything about killing you?”  Lorelei taunted Senator Kelly.  “Why in the world would we try to transform you into a martyr against our cause?”<br/><br/>	“Then what do you want?”<br/><br/>	“I’m sorry.”  Lorelei said as she patted him on the head, “Why would I tell you a thing like that?”<br/><br/>	“I also do believe revealing your master plan to your enemies is against the rules stated in that Evil Overlord’s List that's on the internet!”  Toad pipped in after Lorelei had finished speaking.  Lorelei ruled her eyes when she heard Toad's additional comment, not believing that she is stuck with these imbeciles.<br/><br/>	“I suggest that you let the senator go and surrender now before anyone else gets hurt.”  A voice that none of the Brotherhood recognized said from behind them.  When they turned around to see who it was, the Brotherhood saw a blonde woman floating in midair, wearing a red and black costume with a golden, eight-point star centered on her chest.<br/><br/>	“Hey, who invited the chick with the huge tits and the fat ass?”  Blob blurred out, not really thinking about the repercussions of his actions.<br/><br/>	“Blob, I don’t think you should be using the adjectives <span class=""bb-i"">huge</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">fat</span>, especially together in one sentence, when talking about other people”  Lorelei chided her over-sized ally.  It took Blob a few seconds to understand what she had just said.<br/><br/>	“Hey!  Are you inferring something, Lorelei?”  The Blob shouted in protest.<br/><br/>	“Oh, no.  You inferred it.  I only insinuated it.”<br/><br/>	“This is your last chance.”  Ms. Marvel ordered the five mutants who were standing below her.  The agitation in her voiced revealed that the Blob’s recent comment on her physique did not settle with her well.  “Surrender now and no one will be going to the hospital tonight.”<br/><br/>	“You and whose army are going to stop us?”  Pyro shouted back at Ms. Marvel.<br/><br/>	“Yeah!  There’s eight of us and one of you!”  The Blob rashly blurred out again.<br/><br/>	“Five, Blob, five!  There are five of us.  Can’t you count?”  Lorelei berated him.  In response, the Blob just shrugged his shoulders and mouthed ‘my bad’ to the sole woman of these five mutant terrorists.  Meanwhile, Pyro blasted two streams of fire at Ms. Marvel, which caused her to be engulfed by flames.<br/><br/>	“That’s why you don’t mess with the Brotherhood, mate!”  However, it seemed as if Pyro had celebrated too soon since, when the flames that had engulfed Ms. Marvel had finally dissipated, the red and black clad heroine was still floating there, unscathed.  In addition, a yellow aura began to glow around her entire body, while a yellow light radiated out of her eyes.<br/><br/>	“Does it look like I need an army?”  Ms. Marvel yelled at the five mutants after their first attempt at taking her out had turned out to be a complete failure.  While she clinched her fists, a glow that matched the yellow aura and the light shining form her eyes appeared around her hands.  “So which one of you wants to be the first to be vanquished?”</div>"

Once again all he could do was regret making it to the bar so quickly as the rest of his friends were apparently taking their sweet time. Sure Pietro could of just borrowed one of Xavier's cars and just drove to the sleazy bar like a normal person. But that wasn't Pietro's style at all. Plus just sitting in New York City traffic would've been worst. Gritting his teeth Pietro ran fingers though his chocolate brown hair as he glanced around. It was hard to explain it to someone who didn't understand. But while they were all suppose to meet up around 10, even just the few minutes of waiting was killing the Eastern European.<br/><br/>Finally though they all arrived, Pietro had to bite his tongue as he said his greetings to them while holding back the string of expletives he wanted to spew out for them making him wait around and drink down a screwdriver while the band was doing its last tune ups. For all he knew though Pietro's friends didn't know about his superhuman running. They have said they were completely cool with mutants in discussions in the past. However as Pietro would say to other mutants, “My powers are no body's fucking business...”<br/><br/>“Alright so what the Hell band is this?” Pietro asked, his voice still dripping with the Eastern European accent his always had, as the performers were on stage about to start. “They're called The Dazzlers, some group out of LA.” One of his friends called back as the feedback from the speakers hissed off of a plugged in guitar. The lead singer, a woman who looked pretty frail but dangerous enough to not want to say it to her face, stepped up to the microphone with a snarl.<br/><br/>“IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE SHOW YOU CAN KISS MY F---ING A--!!!”<br/><br/>“Ah she's a woman after my heart...” Pietro half-joked as the band started into their first song. <br/><br/>As the show went on, Pietro staying in the back of the club and away from the mosh pit forming.  The last time he got involved in one it just ended poorly for everyone... well except him of course.  He was enjoying himself until that tingle in the back of his brain kicked in.<br/><br/>'Pietro, I need you to go to Boston, Senator Kelly is being held hostage by the Brotherhood.  Jean, Storm, and Beast are already on their way.'<br/><br/>Frowning a bit, Pietro finished his beer and had to fake a text message on his phone telling him that something had come up.  As he left he glanced around the street before slipping into an alleyway and with a mere step started running.  Most wouldn't be able to tell, as it only looked like a millisecond of a blur.  That went through the city and back to the mansion Pietro now called home.  When he got back it was very quickly down to the war room where he threw on his gear.  It looked fairly different from the others, the blue sports shirt which went all the way down to his hands, the black athletic pants, and fresh Addias running shoes that were going to be worn out rapidly like so many before.  As Pietro though was changing into his things though he watched as Xavier wheeled himself into the room.  <br/><br/>“I know what you're going to say...”  Pietro calmly stated pulling his shirt down and adjusting the loops that went around his hands.  “But this is a battle I want.  The Brotherhood is a stain and I want to be the one who cleans it up.”<br/><br/>“I never had any doubts about it Pietro.”  Xavier noted as Pietro got to putting on his shoes.  “But my concerns are how you maybe don't understand stopping them and destroying them aren't the same thing.  Confused as they are the Brotherhood are still mutants like us.  We can't consider them in such a way otherwise we're no better than Kelly.”  Xavier rolled up to Pietro closer, getting in front of him as Pietro took a seat on a chair to finish getting his shoes on.  “Wiping people out is what your father thinks is the right thing to do.”<br/><br/>Pietro eyes narrowed as he looked back up at Xavier.  “<span class=""bb-i"">Adopted</span> father you mean.”  Pietro didn't mean to sound irritated at what Xavier had said, but it still came out from the sheer frustration Pietro felt about it.  How Erik was the only family he genuinely had until he came to Xavier's mansion, and it wasn't a family he wanted saved for his sister, where ever she is now.  “By the way, how come I have to play catch up with them and run out there by myself?”  Pietro asked trying to ease his angry tone.  “You're not worried about me facing off against them are you?”<br/><br/>“Honestly not at all, I knew you were out tonight at that... rather lovely looking concert.”  Xavier joked before getting back to business.  “I didn't want to bother you on a night off had we had the proper amount of support.  However Nightcrawler I can only presume has been kidnapped by Spider-Man, who Iceman and Firestar are with I can only assume.”  <br/><br/>Pietro glanced over at Xavier with a raised curious eyebrow.  “Spider-Man?  The dork who the Daily Bugle hate?  I thought he was on our side, why would he kidnap Nightcrawler?”  Pietro asked genuinely curious himself.<br/><br/>“I'm not sure, but one threat at a time here Pietro.  You're needed in Boston, good luck.”  Xavier gave Pietro's knee a pat as he gave him an assured smile.  Which did make Pietro feel comfortable about things.  No matter how the others felt about him, Xavier could always make him feel like he belonged.  He understood Pietro and that wasn't something the Eastern European took lightly.  <br/><br/>“Oh and Pietro?  Lorelei is there with the rest of the brotherhood, make sure yourself and Beast are equiped accordingly.”  Xavier noted to Pietro who gave a nod and was gone in a blurry instant.  Pietro had the shopping list in mind as he was on his way to Boston.<br/><br/>The mighty roar that only Beast could possibly let bellow out told Pietro he was close as the Boston Commons was not far off.  Carrying supplies with him Pietro made a leap that cleared a large expense of land as he came in hard near the Brotherhood.<br/><br/>“Hey guys whats th...”  Blob's momentary distraction led to him taking to the side of the face a baseball bat Pietro swung in hard.  Pietro wasn't exactly concerned about the fatass' mental capacity since it wasn't like Blob had many brain cells to kill.  The bat cracked and warped around the large cranium as Quicksilver dashed away from the rest of the Brotherhood and back around to his teammates.  <br/><br/>“Sorry I'm late, traffic on the I-84 was a real pain.”  Pietro joked dropping the broken baseball bat and pulling out ear plugs for himself and tossing another pair to Beast who instinctively caught them while eyeing the dropped baseball bat both worringly and curious.<br/><br/>“Where <span class=""bb-i"">exactly</span> did you get that Pietro?”  Beast asked.<br/><br/>“Oh I stopped by Fenway park on my way here.”  Pietro responded only to see and feel all eyes on him.  “What?  I only borrowed it and will promptly give it back.  Though I think David Ortiz is going to be pissed I used it to cave a fat guy's skull in.”<br/><br/><img src=""http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj272/DCGameFreak/DCMarvel/IronManLogo.png~original""/><br/><br/>The next day<br/><br/>Stark Tower – 8:21 am<br/><br/>It was amazing how even with a good night's sleep Tony Stark was still exhausted as he pulled the white Audi R8 spyder into his personal parking space.  Groaning slightly Tony stretched his arms out a bit as he got out of the car turning on its alarm and strolling to the personal elevator out of the underground parking and into work.<br/><br/>Granted he wasn't really that surprised why he was so tired.  It is something you can expect with the night he had last night.  Normally the yearly Charity Ball was either a crazy bore or something he made interesting through sheer willpower and an uncivilized method or two.  This year though it certainly was made interesting through snakes and magic and whatever Hell else was going on.  Perfect timing considering the armor and the fact that it got to make a great first impression if the morning news was anything to go by.<br/><br/>As the doors opened Rhodes was right there waiting for him as usual, clad in a nice suit which clashed with Tony's jeans and his t-shirt...<br/><br/><img src=""https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zef-soyDDtM/T_RIvzJ8TeI/AAAAAAAAAW4/T-UStBoj_Oo/s1600/si.png""/><br/><br/>Tony's fashion sense always got a look of shame from James, and how the young billionaire handled it was usually of the usual snarky nature.  In this case asking to make sure “There's no space invaders coming today right?  Then I don't look like a space-ist.  Lets move onto business.”  <br/><br/>“Well lets not even get into that.  I hope you're alright after everything that happened last night.”  James asked as the two strolled through the building checking out some areas of note for the day.  <br/><br/>“How could I not be?  The party last night was <span class=""bb-i"">out of contrrrooooolllll</span>.”  Tony threw up duel devil horns as he said it.  “Seriously I got to rip a giant serpent's head off.  I can't say I ever imagined doing that.”  Tony felt guilty about making light of what happened last night considering the Parringtons' had part of their home completely wrecked.  “Well I mean I made sure people are there to help start cleaning everything up.  Hopefully it won't take too long.”  <br/><br/>“Yeah about that actually...”  Rhodes asked, paused causing Tony to stop walking as well.  “What exactly happened anyways?”  <br/><br/>Tony tried to make sense of it all in his own head.  “Well... some lady showed up and was bugging Victoria and I guess made the snakes appear.  Some other guy had a magical sword looking thing and really its tough to say.  I mean honestly it was all so sudden I never had time to even try processing it.”  Tony scratched his head as his mind jogged around the events of the night before.  If there was something he hated it was not knowing something.  So with all this supposed 'magic' he was stumped and a bit peeved about it.<br/><br/>Still Tony had business to get back into sinking his teeth over, and remembered a particular piece of business.  As he got to his office on the top floor he dialed the receptionist at the main floor.  Plopping onto his large leather chair as he did so putting it on speaker.  “Mindy its Tony.  How are you doing this fine morning?  Anyways if you see Stane coming in today let me know immediately have him come see me in my office.  Cool?  Cool.  Thank you.”  Hanging up Tony was suddenly reminded his own Secretary was going to be here today.  It was exciting to know he not only had someone to watch his back, but it was Pepper no less.  Someone he knew could watch his back with the best of them.<br/><br/>As James and Tony went over some of the matter the company faced that morning 9 am rolled around and Pepper Potts arrived on time and well dressed to again clash with Tony's slacker clothes.  Tony and Pepper exchanged hugs and James gave her a hearty handshake.  Tony getting out of his desk chair and standing while Pepper took her own seat.  “Well its going to be a salary position, about 55 grand a year.  Plus medical and dental insurance, stock options, 401k plan, a sweet office chair like mine.  Nothing too out of the ordinary I suppose but really I guess I can't give you anything crazy given the position.”  Tony thought aloud.  “Anyways spot's yours if you want it.  I'd have you do a job interview and stuff but lets be honest I know you too well and even James liked your resume and possibilities at the job.  Which is amazing considering he doesn't like anything.”  Tony joked as James gave him a stare.  “Oh lighten up James I was kidding... anyways I was hoping you could start today and if you can I did have some things I was hoping you could nip in the butt for me.”</div>"

Thor flung mjolnir and soared across New York, landing on her feet with a sturdy ""thud"" right outside Stark Towers. With any luck, this would be dealt with quickly and she could kick Loki's ass before lunch. If her mind wasn't otherwise occupied with the multiple ways she'd smash Loki's skull, Thor would probably be contemplating lunch, and possibly Dwight as well, he'd likely be mad that she'd vanished after she sort of told him she'd be fine. After all this was over she'd find a way to make it up to him, no one else had been so eager to help her, no one else had been such good company for her since she'd left Asgard.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Is Stark here?""</span> she asked the doorman who was already trying not to shit himself after what he'd seen Thor do yesterday, the beating she could give him if he didn't give her an answer she wanted to hear.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Top floor.""</span> the doorman replied, stepping aside to let Thor in. He immediately started slamming on the silent alarm. He knew he was no match for Thor, but Stark took security seriously, surely there'd be some internal system that would blast the strange blonde woman to pieces. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Thank you.""</span> she replied, surprisingly polite since she usually smashed first and then asked questions later. <br/>The doorman had caught her on a good day, at least it was a good day so far, depending on how cooperative Stark decided to be, the day could continue to be pleasant, or take a turn for the worst. <br/><br/>If she knew how expensive, and how high-tech Stark towers was, she'd likely have been impressed, however she had no idea nor did she had the time to appreciate the impressive design around her as she made a beeline to the elevator. She pulled the folded piece of paper out of her sleeve and stared at the slightly blurred image as the elevator continued its upward journey. <br/><br/>Loki. This one picture, a grainy, but not totally useless, candid snap from the Hulk-fight that had taken place only a couple of days earlier. The photo was taken miliseconds before she'd collided with the Trickster and this was the image she would give to Stark to help run the face trace to find him once and for all. If only she knew Loki had met Stark face to face only a few hours ago at the charity ball last night. <br/><br/>The elevator doors slid apart, silently, aside from the ""ding"" that informed everyone that the elevator had finished its trip. It was much better than the elevator at Thor's apartment complex, that thing creaked and squeaked with every floor and the doors screeched when they slid apart. <br/><br/>She recognised Stark, remembering his face from the news broadcast the previous morning, though she didn't know his two companions, a man, older than Stark, and a woman. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Tony Stark. I would have words with you.""</span> Thor said, taking a confident step outside of the elevator. <br/>All he had to do was run the search, this didn't need to get ugly. </div>"

Today he was making use of the gym, in particular the treadmill. He had never admitted it to anyone but sometimes he found physical activity to be rather calming. Running on a treadmill didn't require much in the way of active thought (beyond making sure he didn't break the thing) and after an hour or so of non stop motion he could finally enter what he privately called the 'Thor state of mind'- calm, quiet and devoid of anything even remotely resembling a thought. <br/><br/>After a minute or two of being free of the burden of an intelligent mind, Loki grudgingly started to think about the problems and mysteries that had arisen recently in order of what he deemed the most important. <br/><br/>The Enchantress... <br/><br/>Her continued existence was a worrying one as was the mystery of <span class=""bb-i"">how</span> she was still alive. There were at least six major different possibilities he was considering at the moment:<br/><br/>1. She survived Ragnarok and had been hiding out somewhere until recently.<br/>2. She had been imprisoned in the Netherworld and had recently escaped from it much like he had himself.<br/>3. She had been imprisoned in the Netherworld and had bartered some kind of pact with powers and beings far beyond the comprehension of a sane mortal human in order to secure her release.<br/>4. She had died at Ragnarok but had made some kind of deal with his daughter Hel to escape from death in a similar manner that he had once (Though she would be hard pressed to offer her something better then Balder).<br/>5. She had died but was brought back to life by person's currently unknown for reasons currently unknown. <br/>6. The Enchantress was dead and whatever was running around wearing her face was merely pretending to be her for its own reasons.<br/><br/>The idea of what to do about her came to his mind and fairly quickly came to a conclusion; She needed to die. You couldn't imprison someone like the Enchantress for long and if she hadn't come to the conclusion that she needed to reform her ways after bringing about Ragnarok itself then it quite simply wasn't going to happen; At least not in a way that he was willing to trust as anything more then a ploy to betray those around her for her own ends. The only person she <span class=""bb-i"">might</span> have been willing to admit changing her ways for was Thor and until proven otherwise Loki was damn certain that he was dead. <br/><br/>Speaking of Thor...<br/><br/>Before Loki could delve into the mystery of the female 'Thor', his attention was brought to one of the TV's that was on so that those using the equipment in the gym had something to watch while they worked out. It was a news report of the female 'Thor' in question and the rampage that she had gone on the night before. Her choice of targets were rather interesting, but the last location she was seen at caused Loki to stop jogging. <br/><br/>If she had appeared at Stark Towers but left without breaking in (A change of pace considering her activities earlier that night) then it meant that what she was looking for wasn't there... Which most likely meant that she was looking for Stark himself. Sighing to himself, he stepped off the treadmill and started walking out of the gym, already planning to swing by Stark Tower's and keeping an eye on the place for <span class=""bb-i"">when</span> this female Thor was bound to show. Might as well deal with one of his problems while the opportunity presented itself.       </div>"

Tony didn't mind a bit this time though, as opposed to other days when he'd get restless and start just checking in on employees just for the sake of having <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> to do.  After all of the business at the charity ball Tony Stark was all too happy to let slow and boring be the style of the day.  Plus with Pepper's new desk needing a few days to come in, Tony decided to just let her stick around and hang out instead.  <br/><br/>It was a simple plan, pop open the big flat screen that was in his office, turn on the new Stark Tech 'Platinum' gaming system, and have a little fun trying it out.  Heck even James Rhodes hopped in after a bit and seeing the normally stoic military man chuckling it up made Tony beam a smile.  It was amazing to see James let his non-existent hair down every once in a while.<br/><br/>As Tony took a break to get a beverage from his personal mini fridge he felt his phone buzz in his pocket.  Expecting just some random company news he didn't expect the private silent alarm going off.  Looking into why he pulled up the surveillance camera to the elevator and... oh crap.<br/><br/>Considering this Thor lady was all over the news bringing with her chaos, mayhem, and hammers.  Tony Stark didn't want to consider what she was up too coming to him.  He glanced over nervously at Pepper and James who were still playing video games before back to the phone.  Setting up a private text set up with Jarvis.<br/><br/>'Jarvis, have the Iron Man suit jetted over to Stark HQ for me NOW.'<br/><br/>'Of course Stark, ETA on suit's arrival in five minutes.'<br/><br/>“Shit.”  Tony muttered to himself, the elevator wasn't going to buy him enough time and he needed to get his friends out of there.  Quickly he strolled up to Pepper and James.  “Hey guys... listen.  I don't mean to be buzzkill McGee here but it might be smart if you... you know... GTFO the hell out of here like nowish.”  Tony Stark tried to hide his panic as best he could but when they looked over Tony's face was fairly pale.  “Why what's going on?”  Pepper asked concerned.<br/><br/>“Oh nothing just it'd be smart if...”  Tony was promptly cut off when the doors opened.<br/><br/><font color=""lightcoral"">""Tony Stark. I would have words with you.""</font><br/>“Mother fuc... hey!”  Tony Stark spun in place greeting the supposedly Goddess lady.  Pepper and James immediately got what Tony was talking about.  Pepper ducking underneath Tony's desk and James re-actively pulling out his pistol, pointing it at Thor.  Tony glanced over and before anyone did something stupid quickly put his hand over the pistol, making James lower it mouthing to him.  'Please don't.'<br/><br/>“Well uh.  Good to see you Miss... Thor?”  Tony quickly got back to his guest realizing again he needed to buy time.  “Listen normally I have an appointment schedule I like going on for these kinds of visits.  You could AND SHOULD consider just filling in your details when you want to see me.  I mean I do busy things and am a busy man.”  Tony was trying to hide his fear and somehow at least in his mind was doing so.  “Lots of people 'have words with me' m'lady.”</div>"

She was Thor, and Tony was aware she was a threat. This was going surprisingly well so far, given the situation at least. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You have heard of me.""</span> she observed. <span class=""bb-b"">""Then I need not warn you of the power of Thor.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""> “Listen normally I have an appointment schedule I like going on for these kinds of visits.  You could AND SHOULD consider just filling in your details when you want to see me.  I mean I do busy things and am a busy man.""</span><br/><br/>She couldn't quite figure Stark out ... he was smart enough to not draw a weapon, yet he was dancing around the topic with words, and she wasn't very patient, fitting in a meeting according to Tony's schedule certainly wasn't going to happen. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""And I am a busy Goddess, so we shall conduct this with haste.""</span> she glanced at James, pistol still lowered, and took an easy stride a little closer to Stark, not enough to be inherently threatening, but certainly enough to show that she did not feel at all intimidated by Stark or his crew. Clearly, she wasn't going to do things on Stark's terms, the schedule was out, dealing with things quickly was in ... Until Stark got the suit, she was in a position of power... for now. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You have satellites do you not? I seek a man, a dangerous fugitive, Midgard is in grave danger.""</span> <br/>She offered Stark a sincere look, pleading him to trust her and just use his damn tech to get her the answers she needed. Tony appeared brave, but she'd thrown herself into the heart of battles and great wars, his resolve was admirable, but she knew he was masking a deep-down fear. That was good, he was aware she could kill him without breaking a sweat, not that she intended to. <span class=""bb-b"">""I do not wish to fight you, nor your allies.""</span> she glanced at James and also at Pepper who was hiding under a desk. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Let us do this the easy way. Tell me where Loki is hiding and no harm shall befall you, you have my word.""</span> Unfortunately for Thor, her ""word"" didn't carry much weight here in New York, it would take far more than her ""word"" to earn anyones trust here.  <br/><br/>She held out a slightly blurred, but still legible photo of Loki. Luckily Dwight managed to uncover a few candids from the fight earlier that week, not that she needed it, Stark had met Loki face to face the evening prior. It was almost ironic, Stark didn't need a photo to find Loki, he already saw that face in person.<br/><br/>Of course, Tony had a good hand in this game of chance, if he could play his cards right long enough. Although Thor could easily kill him, killing Stark would scupper her plans. She couldn't use a satellite, she couldn't even begin to figure out how one worked much less how to use it to find a single man. She needed Stark alive, he could certainly use that to his advantage, but at the same time, if he took too long, if he upset the vengeful Goddess, she'd kill him easily in an instant and find other means of locating Loki. They were both dancing on a knifes edge. </div>"

Pausing though he realized who the image was and remembered the guy with the sword at last night's dinner party. Wait HE was a threat? The guy who helped save everyone from the crazy snake lady? If it was all a ploy it was either the start of a slow burn or this lady had her ideology mixed up.<br/><br/>“Well satellites then. Uh how should I explain this.” Tony strolled away in thought from Thor, “See do I have satellites up in the air? Yessss...” Tony shrugged holding out the answer. “Kind of? I mean none of them are equipped to find people though.” One minute, Tony could hold her off just a little longer. “So I'm not exactly sure what it is I really can do for you. Sorry.” Tony told her giving her a somewhat, actually not at all sincere shrug. <br/><br/>Thor didn't know exactly how things on Midgard worked, but she had her instincts and she was beginning to suspect Stark was trying to play her like a fiddle. He was buying time, but for what? She wasn't prepared to wait much longer and entertain Tony's pointless games. <br/><br/>""I'm no fool Stark, you possess some of the most formidable technology in this realm do you not? If satellites cannot procure the answers I seek, I do not doubt you will have other means. SHIELD would not have been able to track my whereabouts if the technology did not exist, and SHIELD are not the only ones with that technology."" she replied. <br/><br/>""You are wasting my time, if you'll not aid me, then you choose to ally thyself with Loki and you both shall meet the same end. So choose, save your realm or allow it to burn as Asgard once did."" she threatened. <br/><br/>Now Tony Stark was just getting annoyed, ""Okay you know what 'Royal We' using hockey pokey lady? Don't think for a moment me and SHIELD are the same because their tech is used for that stuff. My stuff is for consumer goods so don't start giving me lip about what I can or cannot do."" <br/><br/>""Tony?"" James cautiously asked trying to keep Pepper calm as she was shaking in fear under the desk.<br/><br/>""No no I got this. I'm not about to stand here and have you tell me who or what is dangerous. Because that guy you're so convinced will destroy everything? He was at a charity ball last night saving everyone from some green suited lady who had giant serpents. I'd know because I was there.... I don't recall seeing you're unwelcoming and frankly rude as Hell attitude there. So I fail to see how he's the problem here compared to say... you.""<br/><br/>Almost on cue the Iron Man suit jetted into the room, smashing through one of the large panes of glass and coming into Tony Stark. Snapping in piece by piece as the suit activated quickly. Finally the helmet zoomed into his gloved hand allowing Stark to put it on with a bit of style. The suit's systems already calculating Thor and her power as Tony glanced back of her.<br/><br/>""So since you're being a real pain in the ass, why don't you get the fuck out of my building?"" Iron Man stated pointing to the now recently opened window. <br/><br/>Thor could only smirk at Tony's sudden change in persona. She admired the bluntness, well, she usually would, but right now it was actually inconvenient and rather bothersome. <br/>Then, he made a fatal mistake, he revealed the truth that he had met with Loki. Satellite or no, Tony had information on Loki, and she wasn't going to leave without it. She missed the part about the green-snake-lady, because right now that didn't matter (though later when she had time to think she'd likely have to investigate the snake woman later ...)<br/><br/>""For a genius, you are quite foolish."" she said with a slanted smile. Tony had shown her that he knew of Loki, so there was only one thing that could happen now. He had to tell her where to go. No more games. <br/><br/>Then his suit suddenly burst into the room and snapped itself onto him, sheathing him in a metal case. <br/>""You don't want to make an enemy of me Metal-Man. It is Loki, not you, whom shall face my wrath. I ask you this once more. Where. Is. He?"" she said.<br/><br/>In her mind, Stark had like 3 seconds to make up his mind, and tell her what she needed to hear, or she'd resort to using force, and she dearly hoped he decided to do this the easy way. </div>"

It’s the worst feelin’ in the world; ‘specially when I’m not the one at the controls. Feels…unnatural. I ain’t supp’se ‘ta fly. Birds fly. Angels fly. Wolverines? Wolverines stay close to the ground. This Wolverine wishes he was close to the ground right ‘bout now. </span><br/><br/>“Logan.”<br/><br/>Wolverine glanced away from the window towards the young woman piloting the aircraft. Her voice betrayed her stone-cold eyes – she was concerned for her ‘father.’ Logan loosened his grip on the co-pilot’s stick, leaning back in the seat and taking a few short breathes in an attempt to calm himself down. “Logan! Look at me.” James opened his eyes and turned towards Laura, his brow furrowed in frustration. “What, Laura?!” He snapped. The stress of flying was getting to him. “Pull yourself together. You’re Weapon X, and you have a job to do. I don’t have time for your irrational terror.” X-23 chided the veteran assassin and spy for his frankly childish antics. “I don’t like flyin’. That’s all.” The jet slowed to a halt, hovering over the landing strip that made up the top level of SHIELD’s helicarriers. The jet X-23 flew was a specially designed stealth vehicle engineered by the eggheads back at the Program. At the push of a button, the aircraft's armored exterior disappeared by shifting and bending light around the jet. Light particles couldn't bounce off the plane back to the human eye, thus making the jet invisible from visual identification. The jet came equipped with the highest tech jamming equipment ever developed; they were undetectable to radar, infrared and all sorts of military-grade scanners.<br/><br/>In short: the perfect stealth transport.<br/><br/>Laura reached over towards a section of flips and switches, activating the jet's hover engines. Wolverine stood to his feet with a huff and made his way towards the exit. X-23 followed Logan out of the cockpit and into the back of the plane where the Canadian was busy strapping a backpack to his back. Laura grabbed her pack and slung the equipment over her shoulder, hips swaying as she made her way over towards the exit ramp. ""We have thirty eight minutes before the next round of inspections."" X-23 informed Logan after glancing at her watch. ""We'll need to plug in directly to the helicarrier's system before we can download the Hulk files. We won't be able to wirelessly upload the information before we're exactly 2.3 miles away from the 'carrier; at that point, we're outside of their range of detection. If we do this right, SHIELD'll never know we were here.""<br/><br/>""That's the plan, darlin'. That's the plan."" Wolverine and X-23 stood side by side now. The door slid open and Laura stepped forward, grabbing the safety bar so she didn't fall into the ocean below. She looked down at the helicarrier and calculated her flight trajectory before jumping out of the jet. Laura landed on the tarmac with a subtle thud. Wolverine quickly followed her, shutting the door behind him as he too leaped onto the helicarrier and made his way behind a nearby helicopter. ""Server room is on the third floor. Same floor as the main security hub. Only two ways in: the main stairwell, or we jump off the side and grab one of the maintenance walkways."" Wolverine informed his teammate, recalling the map of the helicarrier he had committed to memory. ""If we go down the stairwell we'll be more likely to run into SHIELD agents. We go maintenance.""<br/><br/>The two mutants made their way to the edge of the helicarrier and looked over the side. Clouds floated by under their feet, offering the smallest glimpses of the ocean thousands of feet below them. The two agents stepped over the edge, landing with a thud on the maintenance walkways that peppered the outside of the helicarrier. They made their way inside a nearby airlock, stepping out of the bright morning light and into the dark bowels of the flying fortress. A boiler room of some sort, Logan guessed. There'd be engineers down here. Wolverine motioned for X-23 to be cautious as they made their way through the labyrinth of rooms and hallways towards the stairs. Along the way they spotted dozens of SHIELD engineers busily maintaining the helicarrier. Once on the third floor, Wolverine and X-23 pulled out a device and used it to loop the hall cameras just long enough for them to cross the hallway and enter the server room. Once they were clear, they reactivated the hall's live feed and looped the feed inside the server room. ""Twenty three minutes and counting. We're making good time."" Laura commented as Wolverine pulled out another electronic and plugged it into a nearby computer. The machines started to interact as Logan downloaded all files related to Doctor Robert Bruce Banner and the Incredible Hulk. While he was at it, Wolverine started grabbing files for other Superhumans SHIELD had on file. A few caught the Canadian's eye.<br/><br/>""Victoria Parrington, the Valkyrie. Confirmed no X-gene, ex-MI6 and current agent of SHIELD. Powers believed to be mystical in origin...Huh."" Wolverine muttered as he continued to scroll through the database. ""Victory Von Doom. Confirmed no ex-gene, monarch of Latveria. Origin of abilities unknown. Spiderman, real name unknown. Possible mutant with Spider-like abilities; current resident of New York City-"" Laura coughed, interrupting Logan's spiel. ""We're here for the Hulk. The rest of these guys are either confirmed not mutants or too weak to grab Romulus' attention.""<br/><br/>""Fine, fine.""<br/><br/>""Doctor Robert Bruce Banner, possible X-gene. Powers first exhibited after accident involving gamma radiation. The Hulk possesses supernatural strength, durability and a powerful healing factor. Currently residing in the Australian outback under the protection of an unknown meta calling himself 'Loki.' Too dangerous to engage. Sounds like a real party 'ta me.""<br/><br/>""Eleven minutes. Time to go."" X-23 notified Wolverine. Logan stopped the download and removed any evidence that he and Laura had been there. X-23 screwed with the cameras one last time before the two members of Team X followed the path they had taken to get inside right back out, arriving back at the tarmac with ten seconds to spare. X-23 remotely landed the invisible jet, and Wolverine wondered if they were actually going to get away Scott free.<br/><br/>But it's never that easy, is it?<br/><br/>Pow! Pow!<br/><br/>""Freeze!"" A SHIELD agent shouted after firing off two shots with his pistol. ""This is Agent John Garret to SHIELD command! Helicarrier Hermes is under attack. Two subjects in my sights attempting to access some sort of stealth aircraft. Backup is required!"" Wolverine growled under his breath, unleashing his six claws and charging at the agent. John fired off three more shots, all making contact with Logan's chest. Wolverine continued to charge, impaling Garret on the end of his claws with a roar. ""Damn it!"" John cried, slamming a fist against Wolverine's head. The force of the blow staggered a surprised Wolverine, who tossed the SHIELD agent away in self-defense. The man stood back up, tearing off his torn shirt and revealing a body made of metal. Sparks flew out of Garret's impaled chest as the cyborg reloaded his weapon and continued to open fire. ""Wolverine, let's go!"" Laura shouted from the top of the aircraft, lowering a rope down to her partner. Wolverine grabbed the line, and began to ascend.<br/><br/>The jet flew away from the Hermes as Wolverine slammed the door shut and the jet disappeared from Garret's view.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://hdwpics.com/images/2F30BE032709/noname.jpg""/> <br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""#39b54a"">HULK V</font><font color=""#fff200"">S WOLVERINE</font></div></div><br/><br/>A hologram of Doctor Bruce Banner stood in the center of the room, staring behind over-sized glasses at his would be attackers. The Boeing C-17 was manned by eight of the world's most deadly mutant assassins, all of them members of Team X. ""Somebody get that guy a chimichanga."" Deadpool quipped annoyingly, his thumb jutted out towards Banner. Maverick glared at Deadpool behind his black mask, saying nothing. Across from Maverick and Deadpool sat Wolverine, X-23 and Sabertooth. Logan and Victor were busy cutting holes into each other's foreheads with their eyes, with Laura being the only thing keeping the two from tearing each other limb from limb. ""Cut it out you two!"" She snarled. Sabertooth lashed out at Wolverine, only for Laura to catch his arm. ""I swear, if you don't stop acting like a pair of stupid children by the count of three, I'll cut both of your balls off.""<br/><br/>""Perhaps it was unwise to allow Victor and Logan to sit next to one another."" <a href=""http://pre06.deviantart.net/a812/th/pre/f/2011/178/2/8/mad_mastodon_1992_2011_by_dbed-d3k6dra.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Mastodon</a> inquired. The huge elephant man towered over the rest of the team, standing at seven foot six inches tall and weighing almost half a ton.<br/><br/>""I can't be the only one enjoying this."" Lady Deathstrike commented as Logan and Victor batted at one another in a flurry of angry, harry fists.<br/><br/>""Do not make me come back there!"" Kestrel shouted from the plane's cockpit.<br/><br/>Another hologram appeared beside Bruce Banner. <a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100423234551/marveldatabase/images/6/67/Evil_Romulus.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Romulus</a> stood with his clawed hands held behind his back, a respectable six feet and three inches tall. The room became deadly silent at the master's appearance. Even Victor and Logan stopped bickering long enough to listen to Romulus' briefing. ""Good."" The founder of Rome spoke. ""Your target is named Doctor Bruce Banner."" Romulus took a few steps away from the other hologram, motioning towards the doctor. ""You sure this is the guy from New York?"" Deadpool asked. ""He's a lot less...Green."" Romulus nodded in response to the question. ""From our observations, the Weapon X Program theorizes that pain or stress cause Doctor Banner here to transform into the other creature. Whether or not he possesses the X-gene, we do not know. What we do know is that the creature called the Hulk is too dangerous to roam free. Worse, if our enemies were to somehow replicate this monster and find some way to control him, our dreams of a world ruled by mutants would become an impossibility.""<br/><br/>""What're we gonna do about 'im, chief?"" Wolverine prompted.<br/><br/>""It's simple. We take control of the beast."" X-23 glanced at Mastodon before speaking. ""How?"" She asked. ""How we control the Hulk is none of your concern. You should be worried more about how we're going to capture him. Step one of our plan is to have seven of you set up a perimeter around Bruce Banner's encampment."" The hologram of Bruce Banner disappeared, replaced by a map of the area. Seven red dots surrounded a single green dot sitting next to a tent. ""Wolverine will go in alone to gauge the Hulk's power. From there, Logan, you will attempt to kill the Hulk. If you are success we will know that this entire escapade has been a waste of our time. But if the Hulk proves to be as powerful as SHIELD believes, you are to contact the rest of Team X and have them engage as well. When this happens, Mastodon, you are to attempt to fight the Hulk toe-to-toe. At the same time, Maverick will flank behind the creature and use his anti-healing factor corrosive blasts to weaken the Hulk so that the rest of you can use the sedatives I supplied you with to knock the mammoth out.""<br/><br/>Romulus disappeared, and a hologram of the Hulk replaced the map. The green giant towered over even Mastodon. ""Looks like he took my chimichanga advice."" The plane's interior was bathed in a red light as Kestrel began to speak over the intercom. ""Alright. Everyone who isn't Wolverine, grab your parachutes and get ready to jump."" X-23, Lady Deathstrike, Deadpool, Sabertooth, and Maverick all stood from their seats and slung parachutes onto their backs, walking over to the back of the C-17 and preparing to jump. Mastodon followed them, however he opted out of grabbing a parachute. A fall from this height wouldn't affect him in the slightest. Maverick could have done the same, however he didn't want to waste his shield jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. The back of the Boeing opened and the team jumped out, two at a time. Mastodon was the last to jump, landing in the sand with a massive thud. No doubt Doctor Banner would hear it.<br/><br/>After a few moments, Wolverine stood as well and made his way to the back of the plane. ""You ready, Logan?"" Wolverine just smiled at John's question. ""Hell yeah. Tell me when we're right over 'im. I wanna hit the big guy from the air.""<br/><br/>A few seconds later, John spoke. ""GO GO GO!"" Wolverine leaped out from the open ramp of the plane and fell from the sky. He could see a figure standing outside the tent, looking up at the plane. And the falling runt. Wolverine loosed his claws and stuck his arms out in front of him. Air rushed by the falling mutant as he gained speed. He was moments from colliding with Bruce Banner and impaling him with a set of Adamantium claws. <br/><br/>""LET'S RUMBLE, MATE!"" He cried.</div>"

He hoped that Loki wouldn’t take that long before the first check up.  If he had access to water, some seeds. He could be self sufficient in no time at all! Then all he needed was some science equipment to try and-<br/><br/>He heard a thud, turning around confused. Was that Loki returning? His teleports didn’t sound like that did they? That’s when he saw a figure stand to its full height. Easily almost as tall as he heard the Hulk was. This wasn’t good, then he heard a voice from above him, his heart was already racing.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Out of control. The beast is calling.</span><br/><br/>The figure was rapidly falling towards him, some kind of claws going straight for him. The only thing he got out, last thing that Banner got to do was a “No, No, no, no, no!”<br/><br/>Wolverine collided with Bruce Banner’s body only moments after the doctor had a chance to cry out his objections. Metal claws flashed in the sunlight as Logan tackled the rogue scientist to the ground, six foot long knife-like claws covered in Bruce’s blood. Wolverine stood to his full height of five feet and three inches over his fallen target. “That was...Easy.” He mumbled, turning away from Banner and walking towards Mastodon. “The runt’s down! Didn’t even put up ‘a fight.”<br/><br/>“Quite disappointing, I must admit.” The elephant commented, stroking his trunk.<br/><br/>Dust moved, stone cracked and before Wolverine had time to react a green fist shot out of the ground, followed shortly after by a second one. The Hulk climbed out of the whole, face on the back of Wolverine, and then his front when he inevitably turned around. He didn’t say a word just pulling himself out of the whole and then standing at his full height. Standing almost four feet taller than the mutant.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">People never leave Hulk alone! He let loose a growl. Green man had given him and puny Banner home here, this was Hulks home. Yellow claw man have to leave.</span> <br/><br/>He let loose a bellow arms behind him before hitting the ground with both his fists cracking it slightly. Had they been in a city the tarmac and concrete would have cracked. As it was anything not tied down jumped up and dust was thrown into the air (Some into Wolverines face). <br/><br/>Elsewhere in Australia a scientist perked up as a richter scale indicated some activity, looking perplexed. <br/><br/>“Whoa!” Wolverine shouted as he feet left the ground, flying into the air. Dust sprung up as well, getting into Logan’s eyes as he slammed back onto the sand. “Urrghhh.” He grumbled, rubbing his eyes with the back of his gloves. What the hell just happened?! The Canadian midget wondered.<br/><br/>“Bang bang bang bang!” Deadpool shouted as he whipped out a pair of pistols and unloaded on the green giant. Mastodon charged past the fallen Wolverine, tusks pointed forward as he kicked up even more dust behind him. “Watch it, fatty!” Wolverine moaned as he was blinded once more. “Have at thee, monster!” Mastodon shouted.<br/><br/>Hulk roared as Mastodon ripped through the camp, ignoring the bullets entirely much to Deadpool’s displeasure he put out his hand as hard as he could straight into where Mastodons head was going to be. The impact caused Hulks arm to bend slightly, and he skidded in the dirt however the impact would have been far more worrying for Mastodon than it was for Hulk, and far more painful too.<br/><br/>“Oohhhhh! Denied, sucka!” Deadpool shouted, wavering his pistols around. During the display, Deadpool accidentally pulled the trigger and shot himself in the foot. “OWOWOW! I’m hit! Man down!” Meanwhile, Mastodon was stumbling around after being struck straight in the face. “Hrrgghhh..I- I can’t..What?” He nonsensically said, wandering closer to the Hulk.<br/><br/>Stumbling forward, his hand still to the hairy tusk mans forehead Hulk leant down a little bit, tusk man was tall. Tilting his head to the right underneath his arm Hulk let loose what could either be taken as a snarl or a grin, before grabbing the tusk man’s… tusk and spinning him around. Letting go randomly though hopefully in the direction of the noisy red one. He let loose another roar into the air.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">They had destroyed the home the nice Green man gave him! This was Hulks home! They had ruined it! Would they leave now? Had they learned?</span><br/><br/>“Oohhhhh my!” Mastodon exclaimed as the Hulk sent him flying. “Make way! Look out!” Deadpool, unaware of what was going on around him, was occupied with the hole in his foot. “Ow ow ow! This hurts! W- Wait a second. Where are my thought bubbles? WHY DON’T I HAVE THOUGHT BUBBLES?!” Mastodon slammed into the confused mutant, and the two were sent tumbling down a nearby hill and into a grove of thorn bushes. “Ow.”<br/><br/>“Ugh. Idiot. Deathstrike, you go left! I’ll go right! Sabertooth, you take the middle!” X-23 ordered. The three members of Team X charged towards the Hulk. Lady Deathstrike and X-23 took to the flanks of the green beast as Sabertooth charged down the middle on all fours. The trio attacked the green goliath, while Wolverine pulled himself to his feet. “This is embarassin’.” He mumbled. Where were Maverick and Kestrel?<br/><br/>He turned to face the one who shouted, three of them splitting up. One of them right at him on all fours, he took a step and began running back at him. Almost screaming the whole way, as the smelly one jumped Hulk came to a stop but continued into a spin fist first to meet Sabertooth. Though Hulk didn’t know it it was a good thing Sabertooth possessed a healing factor, though then again Hulk was losing the capacity to care.<br/><br/>Hulk’s massive fist slammed into Sabertooth’s chest, sending Victor Creed flying. The airborne Sabertooth disappeared from sight and crashed in the wilderness a good ways away from the fight. X-23 and Lady Deathstrike took the opportunity to simultaneously attack the Hulk; X-23 stabbing at the giant’s face and Lady Deathstrike circling around to stab into the back of the Hulk’s neck. Wolverine turned towards the fight, his eyes now clear of dust. “Alright, big man. Round 2!” Logan shouted as he charged towards the Hulk, claws facing forward.<br/><br/>The blades cut him, sharp nasty ladies cut Hulk! Searing blades across his face and neck. He reared up roaring as thick green blood oozed dropping onto the ground. The wounds did heal, but the pain was still there. He swatted his arms, one on front to hit the lady and before he had a chance to see if he hit his mark he went to grab the woman off his back to try and throw her away, though he had to grab her first.<br/><br/>X-23 was sent flying by the unexpected blow from the beast. She landed a few yards away, her vision blurry. Lady Deathstrike was subsequently grabbed by the Hulk. She attempted to struggle, but the Hulk easily broke both her of mechanical arms with a simple squeeze of his fist before throwing her away like an American football.<br/><br/>Then there were two.<br/><br/>Wolverine took a gulp of air into his lungs. He had to admit, he was kinda nervous. The Hulk had taken down the rest of his team in no time flat. But Logan wouldn’t let his fears control him. Wolverine let loose a savage roar of his own as he charged at Hulk and attempted to slice the monster’s eyes out of their sockets.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Strange people not leave Hulk alone?! Why would they not leave Hulk alone? What did they want?!</span><br/><br/>Hulk snarled as Yellow Claws started charging at him again. He thumped his hands on the ground, one and then the other before stepping forward right hand open in an attempt to grab him as Yellow Claws went for the attack.<br/><br/>Wolverine noticed that Hulk was going for the ground and pound again, and in and effort to prevent the beast from incapacitating him again jumped into the air and kept his eyes closed. Dust flew upwards as Hulk caused another minor earthquake. Logan appeared from the cloud, his eyes still closed, and managed to dodge past the Hulk’s attempt at grabbing him. Wolverine followed up the maneuver by leaping over the green giant and slashing at his face once more before landing on the ground behind him.<br/><br/>Hulk roared as the blades pierced his skin. Turning around to face Yellow Claws. Picking up dirt, and some rather thorny bushes in his right hand he dragged the debris and threw it in Yellow Claws direction, following it with his left fist. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Yellow Claws should leave Hulk alone! Hulk… hate… YELLOW CLAWS</span><br/><br/>He roared as he was following through with the punch putting all of his strength into it. The thunder of his footsteps and shaking of the ground seemed greater that it previously had! Almost as if the Hulk was somehow getting stronger.<br/><br/>Wolverine quickly side stepped the incoming projectiles thrown by the Hulk, moving forward to attack him once more. Logan barely noticed the follow-up punch in time to bob out of the way; he managed to avoid a direct hit, but Hulk landed a glancing blow on Wolverine which caused his inner ear to go haywire. Logan lost all sense of balance and direction, nearly collapsing as he forced his eyes opened in an effort to keep the Hulk in his sights. He wouldn’t go down that easily.<br/><br/>While that was happening, a nearby Deadpool managed to crawl up the side of the hill covered in thorns. “That..Was really uncalled for!” He yelled. Deadpool drew a sword and a single pistol, cracking his neck. “Yippee-kay-yay!” The mutant assassin called, firing at the Hulk with his tiny gun as he approached the colossus from behind.<br/><br/>Meanwhile Kestrel and Maverick appeared over a nearby sand dune, carrying with them a number of syringes filled with a strange yellow liquid. John Wraith teleported to X-23’s side, who was still struggling to stay conscious. “It’s alright little missy.” The man helped Laura to her feet. “We’ve gotta take this guy down, Logan! Romulus says that there’s a SHIELD helicarrier approaching! T-minus five minutes!” Maverick shouted, firing energy blasts from his fingertips at Hulk. The blasts were meant to keep the Hulk from healing his wounds effectively; hopefully they were powerful enough to work on this monster.<br/><br/>The shots hit, all of them at the same time. Hulk fell to a knee, more so from the energy blasts than from anything else. He screamed as he was forced down onto his knees. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">They wouldn’t… leave… Hulk…</span><br/><br/>He was forced down, his body betraying him as he curled knees on the ground and back in the air. Screaming the whole time.<br/><br/>“We-We’re winning?” Kestrel asked as the beast cried out in what seemed to be pure agony as Maverick laid on the firepower. Deadpool and Wolverine approached Hulk, stabbing at the fallen Hulk with their claws and sword in an attempt to put the big guy down. “John!” Maverick called. “Sedatives!” Kestrel nodded, pulling a pair of syringes from his belt and teleporting next to the Hulk. He jammed the needles into the green goliath’s back, pumping the liquid into Banner’s bloodstream. <br/><br/>As Deadpool stuck his sword in a mighty swing of defiance, he was appalled when the blade struck the behemoths skin, and bent. He watched as those with Adamantium claws managed to pierce the skin and if they could see under his mask, he looked heart broken. “Oh come on guys, that’s totally not fair. In fact, that’s cheating.”<br/><br/>That’s when the plan went to pot. Muscles all over Hulks body began to bulge as the goliath stood up screaming, arms in the air in an act of defiance. He turned to face Yellow Claws. This wasn’t just a passing glass he looked at him right in the eyes.<br/><br/>“Hulk.” His arms raised high in the air, everyone probably already knew what was coming next. “SMASH!” He brought down his arms with more force than he had previously been able to muster, creating a tremor that could be felt for miles and a substantial dust cloud and shockwave pushing back the team of Weapon-X. Though despite this surge of strength, that was all Hulk had in him.<br/><br/>His own increase in strength worked against him, due to his healing factor being decreased meaning that his system couldn’t fight the sedatives and his heart rate increasing spreading the sedative faster once he had hit the ground he fell to the ground flat on his face. His bones grinding and cracking, as his skin tone began to change and his entire body began to revert to it’s regular size.<br/><br/>The few mutants still on their feet were knocked away from the Hulk by the shockwave. Nearly an entire minute went by as the team waited to see if the Hulk still stood. X-23 let out a sigh of release when the dust cleared and it was revealed to them that Hulk had reverted back to his human form.<br/><br/>Wolverine’s claws sunk back into his forearms. The fight was over, it seemed. “We gotta move. SHIELD will be on top of us any minute now. I parked the plane nearby, in the desert. We should be able to get there in time if we move now.” John told the others as they all got to their feet and dusted themselves off. Deadpool ran off with his bent sword to find Mastodon, as X-23 went off to find Lady Deathstrike. “What about Victor?” Maverick asked. “Leave ‘im. We can come back later for Sabertooth.” Wolverine growled, picking up Banner’s unconscious and half naked body. “Let’s move, people!” Kestrel shouted, teleporting out of sight. The rest of Team X started northward, following Maverick to the Boeing C-17 they had flown to Australia in.<br/><br/>“Oi, elephant man.” Deadpool called as he slid down the hill, carefully avoiding the thorn bushes. Mastodon groaned in pain. “This was an unpleasant experience, my friend.” Mastodon pulled his massive body out of the thorn bushes and followed Deadpool back up the hill. “He bent my favorite sword.” Deadpool complained. “Her name was Alisha.”<br/></div>"

She had pondered about the rather erratic strike she had ordered, though only briefly. The secret war had been going on for years now, and its conflicts were pitiful and sparse. Then the enemy had suddenly introduced a third party. <br/><br/>""Latveria."" She hissed, to none but herself. A cacophony of cultivated fields were split roughly by the border - a large and imposing stretch of stone and steel, manned and defended by the Latverian monarch's soldiers. She had never seen the monarch himself, though the name 'Doom' had been a topic of conversation throughout her entire life, and the rumours were often unbelievable and terrifying. She was greatly interested by the man - if he was even mortal - and the drastic move by the enemy to target his state had made her chuckle with excitement. She knew it would not be long until this 'Doom' was before her. <br/>The strange defenders of the border were unlike anything she'd expected. They were all identical, large and stationary - like gargoyles defending a medieval keep. Penetrating colours of green and silver shone with the moon's glare as her pawns approached.<br/>If they had the audacity to steal under the guise of me, then what else is there for me to do but raise the stakes?<br/>She sneered as her gift held her high in the air. It was a picture of twisted beauty if one were to see her up close.<br/>She focused on the menial response of the Latverian soldiers as her Shadows let loose with silenced gunfire. They appeared remarkably stalwart, barely even fazed by the bullets that should have proven fatal. They began to mechanically move towards her pawns. She wasn't particularly unnerved by the strange soldier's formability - if dead bodies were produced in Government uniforms then she didn't care, even if they were disguises. She had worked with one of her Conquerors, a drunkard but efficient strategist named Ivan Jankovic. They had agreed on this course of action shortly before she had sent the man to dispose of the potentially threatening Zebediah Killgrave.<br/>She giggled to the clouds amongst her. She was manoeuvring the pieces of the war chessboard with a meticulous pragmatism. No matter how far her pawns made it into Latveria, the first signs of conflict would still have sufficed. Doom would be alert soon enough, and the monarch's weaponry would let her crush the enemy once and for all after she had twisted his strings into a trade agreement. And if not... well, she had her gift.<br/>For was she not Wanda Maximoff, master of Chaos? Was she not the Scarlet Witch?<br/><br/>Her pawns fell. They had delivered some significant damage to the queer sentinels of the border, admittedly, though it didn't matter to Wanda what happened to either of the groups. As long as they had recognised the Government insignia inscribed into the deceitful uniforms, then nothing else mattered. Her Shadows deployed during the battle were all fresh meat, new recruits to the syndicate. If they survived the encounter with Doom's forces, then she would allow them to continue their training as fully fledged Shadows. If they perished, however, then they were clearly unfit to be counted among her ranks. <br/>She was beginning to leave when a blurted outburst of cries echoed out from below. Having her curiosity piqued, Wanda dispelled the obfuscating barrier around her and flew down towards the sound. A long abandoned shack sheltered the pained resident, she observed, and it's close proximity to the area of diminishing battle could mean only one thing. Cowards.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/>Carl 'Crusher' Creel lay panting on the floor of the shack. Blood poured out of a wound from his chest, the consequence of a brutal conflict with the strange metal men. The worst part was that the wound was due to a gunshot, and from one of his accomplices, no less. One of the first barrages upon the border guards had seen a bullet repel off of one of the sentinel's armour, only to embed itself deep within Creel's stomach. The man who had fired the shot hadn't noticed, and the people around him who had did not heed his cries for help. This was for all of them their greatest opportunity - the chance to be elected into the esteemed ranks of the Shadow Conquerors, the just and efficient caste pitting itself against the despicable Government. Creel had only lived in Sokovia for a short while, he and his daughter had had to leave the States due to a precipitous situation between Creel and his drug dealers, but the instant the retired boxer had received full citizenship - he had been thrown quite literally into a coal mine. His daughter, only just maturing at thirteen years of age, had been carted off for hours each day to parts unknown. When the father and daughter were reunited after a day or even more, the man was caked with dirt and bloody cuts, and the girl was bedraggled with cheap lipstick staining her face. Needless to say, Creel's patience had soon run out. If he could be drafted into the Conqueror's forces, then maybe he could change things in the isolated country. With his strange power... <span class=""bb-i"">No, that barely ever happens. I ain't a mutant, not one o' those freaks.</span><br/><br/>Creel twisted his head to see the decrepit wood start to creep up his fingers, like he was a sponge - absorbing the properties of things that he touched. This phenomena had only ever happened twice before, in very dire situations. Creel hated to think about it - as if one of the old great boxers could be classed as a mutant. It would tarnish his reputation. It would -<br/>The withering wood on the far side of the ceiling began to crumble, and then spasm and vanish into thin air. The illuminating moonlight shone through the ever expanding hole in the roof, and as it did a silhouette began to be visible to the wounded man. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">A mutant? Like me?</span><br/>She drifted through the gaping hole in the ceiling, dragging her long and elegant auburn hair behind her as the compelling shine of scarlet drew his eyes. She was impossibly beautiful, yet in her eyes he could see clearly that something wasn't right. <br/><br/>""Coward."" She spat.<br/><br/>""Please, you don't understand.""<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Do you think I am mad? Do you think I don't see you quivering here before me!?</span>"" She shrieked, anger rippling off her in waves.<br/><br/>""I - I... I can help - against the Government. Please! I'm a mutant!"" He threw his hand up before her, showing the dirty brown wood extending up to his elbow. She raised her eyebrows at that, but as soon as the contact between Creel and the wood was gone, his arm began to return to it's usual skin. She giggled maniacally. <br/><br/>""You're weak. You would be nothing but detrimental to my forces."" She began to raise her arms.<br/><br/>""I - I'm stronger than the others! Please!"" He dug a phrase out of the back of his mind, a phrase that had flurried around in the coming of mutants, ""Homo superior!"" Her arms snapped up in a sort of demonic dance, with much more rage than before.<br/><br/>""Do not even <span class=""bb-i"">attempt</span> to relate yourself to those of my calibre! The Shadow Conquerors were created by true mutants! We were the original Brotherhood, we were powerful enough to accomplish anything! You - you are but a runt of what we are!"" Her voice was rising by octaves, taking on unnatural qualities. She gestured brutally at Creel.<br/><br/>The power erupted within him. The blood from his wound spurted all around, as his mutant ability - fuelled by the aura of the witch, changed his skin to blood wherever the substance appeared. He eroded from the inside and from the out, as his organs were touched by the blood flowing through his veins. It covered his mouth as he spat the sanguine fluid out, rolled into his eye sockets and up his nostrils. He did not even have a second to scream.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/>She gazed upon the puddle of gore with utter contempt. The power of her hex field still moved throughout the shack - warping the old wood as it went and causing unnatural cracks to appear in the stained windows. Her breath ran ragged and hard, as she still stood enraged due to the recruit's words. <span class=""bb-i"">Homo superior. As I am the superior to this man.</span> She wasted not another moment upon the liquefied corpse, instead turning and flying out through the hole she had created. The scarlet of the man's blood trickled down her face and outfit from where it had splattered, joining the weaves of red that completed the Witch. She felt invigorated by the blood as she travelled back towards the city, where her doomed enemy awaited.</div>"

He indicated to Valkyrie. ""One second please."" Turning around and reading the data on it he merely sighed, hitting another key combination so that his jet would be prepared. He then activated the automated defenses along the Latverian border, that would attack anything that wasn't a doom bot encroaching upon his soil. They were fools for trying to breach the wall with force, and they would learn. Or at least, the country would learn. He had doubts that anyone would survive the onslaught. He turned back around to face Valkyrie. ""I am afraid an urgent matter has come up that requires my presence in Latvaria. I am sure you are aware off the... instability in some of our neighboring countries. One such country has decided, for whatever reason, to try and breach my borders with force. I will be required to speak to their leaders in person, see the damage and comfort my people. It saddens me that I won't ge tto announce to the world what the next step for Latveria is however these are trying times.""<br/><br/>He turned around and started to walk towards the door when he had an idea. ""In fact, you are in the spotlight right now. Your presence may be a re-assurance to mine and the Sokovian people. Do you think S.H.I.E.L.D could spare you? I would rather avoid an all out war. Nobody wants that."" Though what was left unsaid, was that it was always harder to take and hold a country by force as it left the people stale and unruly. Though Sokovia was a growing threat to Latveria, one that he may need to deal with himself. <br/><br/>Though that plan ended sooner than he thought. There was a chime throughout the hall as Agent Coulson was brought through the door and the atrium. ""Agent Coulson is it? You must have important news to be allowed past my security systems. Tell me, what is it? Have giant snakes appeared again?"" There was a forced laughed. ""Good one sir, no actually I'm here for Valkyrie. She's needed elsewhere, I will be your new escort.""<br/><br/>Doom looked between Coulson and Valkyrie. ""No matter, I must return home to attend to my borders anyway."" He waved his hand in the most uncaring way possible as he began to walk out. ""Do not forget to turn the lights off when you leave.""<br/><br/>With Doom walking away Coulson spoke again. ""I know this place is bugged but right now I don't care, someones kidnapped the Hulk.""</div>"

She wanted to help avert any and all war. But a more pressing matter was at hand right now. The HULK. She couldn't turn down another cry for help by SHIELD but she also could not be in two places at once. As Doom left she called after him.<br/><br/>“I would very much like to help your people. After SHIELD no longer needs me and should you require my aid once again, do not hesitate to seek me out. Victor.” He may have shown disinterest by his leave but Valkyrie did take it to heart. She let her voice linger as an echoed whisper in the aether. And then she was gone all but for a single feather which floated down from the sky. Coulson could only watch the winged messenger's silhouette against the moon. <br/><br/>----<br/><br/>A radar bleeps on the control panel of a small SHIELD plane en route to rendezvous with The Valkyrie. “It's her, open the hatch.” Maria Hill orders and the back door of the vehicle drops down just in time for Victoria to fly into and land with a thud in her armoured boots. With all on her mind, left reeling from the charity ball, she had trouble concentrating on her armour transmutation, it kept shifting between her modernisation to the Asgardian classic. <br/><br/>“Your-” Maria started but before she could point it out, Valkyrie cut her off. “I know.” <br/><br/>“You need to calm down.” Agent Hill retorts as Victoria joined her at the cockpit just standing behind her. “What's the situation?” She asked, getting down to business.<br/><br/>“The Hulk was apparently transported to Australia by that Loki guy to stop him ransacking New York. But the helicarrier there has called in for backup when they tried to intervene an attack on Hulk.” Maria explained as they jetted straight for the other side of the world. <br/><br/>“The Hulk...” Victoria looks down, holding a closed gloved fist to her chest. “What would they want with him if not to use him somehow? They couldn't possibly kill him.”<br/><br/>“Yeah. Poor thing.” One of the agents said behind them. Victoria turns around and snaps. “He isnt a thing! He's a human being! Have some respect.” Her emotional outburst left Maria wondering for her mental state. <br/><br/>“Yes Ma'am.” The agent mumbles as the Valkyrie walks past her to get some well earned rest.<br/><br/>A few hours later, in a small bunk bed on top another in <a href=""http://s1.zerochan.net/Alexiel.600.24742.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">casual dress</a>. Her legs dangled over the edge. “Sigyn. She called me...Sigyn.” Baffled by the name. “I'm a Valkyrie. A norse angel.” As her mind fixated on the idea, a book materialises in her hand. “Norse Mythology...?” She opened the book and flicked through the pages. “Sigyn is oft referred to as Loki's wife....a goddess of Asgard. The goddess of Fidelity. The woman called me that too.” As she continued on to read. “Loki, the God of Mischief, brother to Thor...caused the end of the world. Ragnarok.” She shut the book tight. “It must be a coincidence.” She throws the book across the small quarters and lays back in bed staring at the ceiling. “And I'm certainly no Goddess.” She frowned as she read the latest report concerning Valkyrie. <br/><br/>“People are calling this Valkyrie a false prophet. She has shook the very foundations of our religious history. People are asking – is she really an angel or a demon disguised as one?”<br/><br/>Her heart sank deeper than the ocean at reading these claims. “A demon.” She looks over her dainty feminine hands, a small golden hue resonating from her skin. She began to questioning herself, her very existence. “People fear what they do not understand.” Her mind thought back to the Hulk smashing up New York. He was angry then. But not a peep out of him until he was provoked in the middle of nowhere. “Misunderstood. It's time to understand him.” She closes her fist tight in determination. “Whoever took him will be sorry.”<br/><br/>---- <br/><br/>The Outback, Australia. Local time.  <br/><br/>Dust particles are forced up from underneath a heeled white boot stepping onto the terrain, belonging to the Valkyrie. She wore a grey cloak over her long dress to cover herself from the sun. Although she didnt realise yet, that it wouldnt much affect her toughened Asgardian skin. So much still to learn of her true self and her kin. She scanned the area, a small tent lay on its side, next to some broken scientific equipment, and dotted around were some craters. A large scuffle took place here. She came here with only 2 other agents, Maria Hill and Clay Quartermain. <br/><br/>The same Loki who had helped fend off serpents at her charity ball had taken the Hulk here. He must have trusted him. Someone who had caused the Ragnarok would not help people in this way, surely? But she remembered not what drove him to it, maybe she would understand why he did it, being that she had an empathetic nature.<br/><br/>She could sense pain and suffering, she heard a faint Hulk roar of the past that echoed in time. She held her arms. “He's in pain.” She felt it as if it were her pain, wandering the campsite, feeling his soul energy. “He only wanted...to be left alone!” She clutched her elbows tightly. Suddenly a cat like roar came from behind her, she turns in time to dodge a flying Sabertooth coming her way. <br/><br/>She side steps too fast for the mutant and watches as he zips past her and lands less gracefully than usual, having just being flung a long way by Hulk. “What is that?!” Clay points his gun at it. Victoria stands to face him. “Some...kind of crazy cat man?” She shrugs, not feeling very threatened by him at this point. <br/><br/>As the Saber-toothed man went for another lunge, Victoria makes her shield appear and he pelts into it head first. His wounds had healed over but he was still suffering the earlier fight. “What did you do with the Hulk? You wouldnt be here if you didnt have anything to do with it otherwise...” Her eyes narrow at the growling mutant as she demanded answers, showing some of that Asgardian fiery spirit within.  </div>"

Its pilot, X-51, sat towards the front, his robotic arm connected to the controls mechanically. The Machine Man had no need for a steering wheel when he was in control. Towards the left of the bridge, located on the cold metal floor, sat a young animalistic girl, whose general attitude and appearance made her truly stand up to her namesake; Troll. While munching on what remained of her ration pack, the Asgardian was spending her time productively by gazing upon the group’s fearless leader, who had seated himself slightly behind X-51. Cosmo was a native of the primitive planet of Earth, although he was the exact opposite of primitive. His psychic abilities are grand in power, as well as rumoured to be even stronger than his thick Russian accent. Oh, and he’s a dog.<br/><br/>They are the Guardians of Knowhere, and they are heading to Xandar. Or what’s left of it anyway. <br/><br/>X-51 didn’t quite know what to make of their situation. A dog, an Asgardian girl in a fur suit, and a Machine Man didn’t seem like the makings of an adventure. At least on the same level as what X-51 had recently been used to; meeting a Watcher, the Celestials, and fighting several members of the Fraternity of Raptors. Still, this psychic dog was interesting to the Machine Man. As was the little wild girl gnawing on some rations across the ship staring at him.<br/><br/>If anyone could see through the red eyes of the purple clad Machine Man they would see what appeared to be several computer screens with various info and statistics. A new screen tab was in the eye of the man who had the brain of a sentient machine, entering new data. His personal thoughts rather, as X-51 had always been known as the ‘machine with a soul’ back on Earth. <br/><br/>“File Log. Guardians of Knowhere. Entry One:<br/>I don’t know how this animal could’ve possibly connected to a machine like myself psychically. Color me out of theories. Helping one of the only other sentients out of Knowhere, the three of us are venturing to the next devastated space sector. This dog is a real Lassy, though his name tag suggests his name is Cosmo. ‘Cosmo’ is urging me to fly the my ship to Xandar, home of the Nova Corps. Maybe he wants to file a report, or maybe he wants a place to urinate. Or kibble. He can connect with my mechanical mind, but can he read my words?” Machine Man noted in his left eye’s screens.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">I can... but I’m far too tired to keep up with a machine. Wake me when we reach Xandar…</font></span> the resting dog said in a way the Machine Man couldn’t explain.<br/><br/>X-51 wouldn’t like his awkward face. He’s maybe only used it a dozen times in his life until now. They approached their destination in record time. The Shockwave Rider was fast for it’s size. Though it could’ve just been any upgrades X-51 had installed in the last thirty-six hours with his morphing technological body. <br/><br/>Cosmo, however didn’t need waking. The dog perked up his head sharply as the ship descended upon what had once been the mighty Xandar. It wasn’t the Machine Man she had read. No, it was the former screams and cries of the people of Xandar. Cosmo bolted from his seat and jump up at the bridge’s window, paws against the glass. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">This not good. Cosmo can… Cosmo can still hear them screamink…</font></span><br/><br/>A hand on his back caused Cosmo to turn from the glass, looking up. He was surprised to find Troll, otherwise known as Gunna looking down to him reassuringly. The girl was unusually quiet, although that was probably due to the fact that she had realized how drastic the situation was. <br/><br/>The young Asgardian looked up from her furry friend and out into the darkness of space once more. It was evident that great destruction had happened here, with small pieces of rubble floating past them as the ship came to a gradual stop above the now barren planet. She watched each piece in fascination, yet also with some kind of respect. Cosmo had been hurt by what had happened here. Troll was Cosmo’s friend. <br/><br/>Gunna was confused though. Looking down at the planet surface, she found it empty. No rolling hills like back in Asgard. Now tall, towering mountains. Just ash and smoke. It just looked...dead. But that wasn’t why Gunna was confused. What she was wondering was where were the attackers? Where were her new prey? <br/><br/>“No fight?” She asked intently, turning back to Cosmo. Despite her incredibly broken english, the dog still understood her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">No Gunna. Just death…</font></span><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/> <br/><br/>Mexxa held her head low, she lying on her back looking into the sky she ignored her ship. As she thought there were no other Novas left, she was the only one. Once a great organisation, and a great system of planets. Reduced to nothing, for what? Boasting rights for some Kree scumbag? A little growing room for a power hungry Empire? Or did they feel that Xandar posed some kind of threat from some age old conflict that had long been resolved?<br/><br/>No, the only one who’d be punished now would be the one who did this and she’d make sure it was painful and that he’d regret killing all the people he had. He’d feel their pain as he wiped them out of existence and more importantly, he’d feel <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> pain. She stood up and watched the ship approached. If this was some bastard coming to make sure everyone was dead they’d be sorely disappointed...<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Alarms began to sound throughout the room as the Shockwave Rider's scanner detected something heading their direction. In response, the dog reared his head around and peered intently through the glass. Something was heading towards them. Something which hadcaught the attention of young Gunna.<br/><br/>Her eyes widened at the sight of the incoming object. She didn’t have to be a genius to know that the blue light rocketing towards them was a threat. An enemy. Troll knew just how to deal with enemies.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for Troll’s sake, this incoming projectile wasn’t an enemy. After quickly performing a psychic scan, Cosmo realized that he had met this incoming target before. She was called Mexxa; a member of the infamous Nova Corp. She had visited the Collector’s museum before long ago when Cosmo had been in captivity. She had been friendly and polite. It would seem however that Mexxa had somehow assumed that they were responsible for this mess. Maybe if Cosmo could psychically contact her first there wouldn’t be much of an issue? However it seemed that wasn’t going to be how things would play out. <br/><br/>Screaming a mighty war cry, the Asgardian sweeped her battleaxe, Jarnbjorn, from off the floor where it had been perched, and charged forward. Cosmo watched in horror as she moved swiftly through the bridge, building speed, before pouncing forward through the bridge’s front windscreen. Cosmo had a brief glance of Troll hurtling towards the incoming Nova before the blast doors shut over the gaping hole in the windscreen, in which he could only groan in annoyance as he watched her raise her axe over her head menacingly. This couldn’t end well. For anyone. <br/><br/>Had she been from Earth like X-51 and Cosmo she would have been impressed at the speed she had acquired. Both a blue trail of energy followed her and a streak of flame as she was building up speeds, had there been life on this planet this would have been dangerous. She began slowing however as she got closer to the ship, it was no Kree vessel.<br/><br/>However she didn’t have a chance to find out who it really was when some… thing? one? Came crashing through its windscreen brandishing some kind of weapon. She sped herself back up, arms extended. Going straight for the chest shot, if she could get a good grip off… whoever this was then she could find out what was going on.<br/><br/>Find out why they were <span class=""bb-i"">here</span> especially now that everything had happened, this wasn’t a coincidence. Something greater was at play here and she was going to find out what. She aimed straight for the midriff of the strange warrior, hitting dead on target aiming her towards the top of the spacecraft and then stopping. Allowing her <span class=""bb-i"">adversary</span> to career towards and land on top of the craft. She was going to get to the bottom of this, she wasn’t going to take out her frustration on innocent people. Though if they knew something...<br/><br/>Gunna recovered from the attack well, tumbling slightly before perching herself on all fours in a very feral position. If there was one thing that the Magzi Tribe taught her well, it was to survive. Well that, or kill. Growling angrily at the strangely armoured woman who was now hovering above the top of the Shockwave Rider, Troll burst forward once more, swinging Jarnbjorn wildly as she moved. The blade narrowly missed the mystical woman with her first strike, although her second swing was somewhat successful, with Gunna hitting her with the flat side of the axe as he brought it back.<br/><br/>Mexxa was about to speak, when the woman? She couldn’t be sure as there was something not quite right about her, came back with a swing. The first one missing however the second shot hit the mark, and it hurt more than it should have. It was an axe for World Minds sake, how <span class=""bb-i"">strong</span> was this woman? Though of course not a lot of that was going through her mind until she had corrected her fall.<br/><br/>She huffed, pointing both of her arms on front of her connected them palm to palm and then firing a bolt of energy directly at her opponent. She didn’t wait for it to strike. “Alright, you’re not Kree. Who are you and what are you doing here?”<br/><br/>A smile spread across Gunna’s face as Mexxa fell backwards after being hit, although that quickly faded when the warrior quickly rose to her feet. Her eyes widened as the woman outstretched her hands, before slamming them together. What happened next appeared to be the work of the mighty Thor. A blast of what appeared to be bright blue lightning shot forward out of the warriors hands, shooting towards her. <br/><br/>Jarnbjorn luckily took the full blunt of the attack, although the mass of energy caused Troll to fly backwards. Drifting up into the air, Gunna realized what was happening. Panicking, she made a mad series of grabs towards the roof of the ship with her spare hand, all the while drifting away from the Shockwave Rider.<br/><br/>She simply hissed at the woman’s question before shouting the words “Kill you!” loudly towards her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">Gunna that is no way to be talkink to the Nova corp…</font></span><br/><br/>As soon as Gunna heard Cosmo’s voice in her head, she found herself stopping in place. The savage Asgardian turned her head madly, smiling eagerly as she spotted Cosmo appeared from below. The leader of the Guardians was currently wearing the remainder of his old Russian cosmonaut uniform, his eyes glowing brightly as he used his telepathic and telekinetic abilities. He floated gently, landing on the ship’s roof with ease, before bring Gunna back towards the craft.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">Hello Mexxa. It is Cosmo. We met back on Knowhere.</font></span><br/><br/>The dog wagged his tail eagerly as he sat down before the Nova Corpsman. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff79a"">There is no need to be worryink, Mexxa. We are here to help!</font></span></div>"

He walked down onto the runway, he didn't flinch as weapons were aimed at him and continued to walk. The troops who had attacked his borders were Sokovian in origin, the same Sokovians who were trying to establish a trade deal for some of his more... up to date technology rather than the older outdated technology he tended to sell. The whole matter did not make sense, his borders were secure. Such had never been a topic of doubt and yet they still felt their weapons could break through. He eyed their weapons, older models. Not even Stark made. <span class=""bb-i"">Hammer Industries.</span> The most tragic of jokes in existence.<br/><br/>An official of the airport came out to <span class=""bb-i"">greet</span> him. ""Lord Doom, you can't jus-"" Doom raised his hand. ""Silence. You will not dictate to Doom what he can and cannot do.

Also contact these <span class=""bb-i"">freedom</span> fighters and have them too send a representative under my protection. An act of war has been declared against me and my people.""<br/><br/>He continued to walk towards the airport, with the mention of war the few police... security whatever they were raised their weapons. The Doom bots raised their arms revealing their weapon arrays as a hum began to build as the powered up. Doom didn't bother to tell them to stand down. If these Sokovians found it wise to shoot at him they would feel his Wrath. ""I will get to the bottom of this, and then take the appropriate action. If your government was indeed responsible they will be punished severely, without risking civilian lives. If these rebels are responsible I shall aide the stabilization of this country. Now bring them to me, now."" He tapped a button on his wrist as twenty more Doom bots descended the ramp of his aircraft.<br/><br/>""Remove all civilians from this airport during negotiations, if any fighting occurs nearby or anyone other than the representatives attempt to enter this airport you will feel my wrath."" As the official stopped, dumbstruck. As Doom continued to walk towards the airport. He strolled straight in, people already knew who he was so didn't challenge him. Passing through the airport he made his way to the aircraft control tower, where some people still worked to divert air traffic to an alternate airport.<br/><br/>Even they began to file out, as Doom stood facing South West towards Latveria hands clasped behind his back. Now the cards were in the hands of the Sokovians. However they were becoming a nuisance. He had a chance to spend time with a real Asgardian and perhaps even sway him to his cause, not to mention many important experiments to undertake. Yet as it neared time he returned to the airfield, deciding to conduct the negotiations in the open.</div>"

Johnny was the confident driver, Sue was still only learning. The jeep skidded to an awkward stop, Johnny looked mortified. ""I think we'll leave it there for today Sis."" He then runs to the side and throws up. Sue frowns and looks down at the sandy floor. Ben laughs at the sight. Sue then proceeds to pick up a large crate of water, she wore just a pair of denim shorts and a white crop top. ""Little help here fellas huh?"" The tiny woman asked with a sigh of frustration. <br/><br/>Reed and Harvey both stopped talking and quickly got to helping get supplies out of the back of the jeep at Susan's almost motherly like command.  Though Reed had to stop and look over at what Susan was wearing because it wasn't like her usual clothes and also just... wow.  Still Reed and Harvey got some of the bigger boxes out of the Jeep as Reed glanced over at Johnny.  ""Whats wrong with him?""  Reed asked watching Johnny groaning and looking down at his own vomit.<br/><br/>Harvey shrugs. ""Maybe Sue's driving upset his tummy.""  Harvey casually replied, as Ben was all the while still holding back laughter from the scene before him. ""Aww wike a wittle baby!"" Ben chuckles and smacks Johnny's back then goes to grab a crate of food. ""Awww yeah, we're having spaghetti tonight man! I am gonna cook up a storm! A Johnny Storm special eh bud?"" johnny groans. ""Don't talk about food, think I ate a bad burrito or somethin'.""  Johnny whined. ""Oh I thought Sue made you throw up with her bad driving again."" Ben said holding back his laughter as Sue huffed defensively. ""My driving is not bad thank you very much!""  Sue pointed out believing it herself. ""Yeah...it's kinda boring and sequential. Narrates everything. Turn right, keep it controlled, turn left, keep it smooth. AGH!"" Johnny flings his arms up in the air. Sue narrows her eyes at him. ""Come on Ben, I'll help you cook. Johnny, just help Reed store the supplies, you muppet."" Her sisterly love showing for her little brother. <br/><br/>As Reed and Susan were both on their way to handle whatever matters agreed upon, Ben, Johnny, and Harvey watched them both leave before they quickly huddled together.  ""Alright we need to begin 'operation: get those two to just hook up already because this is embarrassing.'""  Johnny noted in a weirdly serious tone.  <br/><br/>""Not that I'm going to disagree, but I still wish you'd stop calling this that... whatever name you're using.""  Harvey noted scratching the back of his head.<br/><br/>""Could be worse...""  Ben interjected with before Johnny could go back to defending 'Operation get those two to just hook up already because this is embarrassing'.  ""Seriously Johnny talk to Reed and I'll handle Susan.""  Ben noted gesturing to the directions Reed and Susan went.  <br/><br/>The three guys nodded in agreement before Johnny and Ben made their ways to Reed and Susan respectfully.  Johnny had to take some deep breaths to get rid of the aching sickness that had crawled up his stomach.  It was the last time he would seriously ever consider a microwaved burrito from some small convenience store that was for damn sure.  At least when he caught up with Reed he felt better for the most part, if it wasn't for the excruciating heat at least.<br/><br/>""Oh Johnny I was wondering when you'd get over here.""  Reed spotted Johnny coming up as he had his arms struggling to wrap around a small sealed up crate.  ""If you want I can handle the load myself.  I'd rather you didn't throw up again since in this weather you need to stay hydrated, and throwing up would make that impossible.""  Reed noted, causing Johnny to have another moment of wondering how Reed was able to remember all these things from school when anyone rational, at least in Johnny's mind, would've had it all go in one ear and out the other.<br/><br/>Still Johnny actually had taken a liking to Reed over the last few months.  A complete nerd sure, but Reed's caring nature made it impossible to hate him no matter how hard Johnny tried.  Plus Reed never spoke down to him at all, and after all these years having someone talk to him like a human being was something Johnny still wasn't quite able to wrap his mind around.<br/><br/>""No man I'm alright thanks.""  Johnny gave Reed an assured smile before he helped started getting the supplies off of the truck.  Watching on with Reed as they got to the tent where everything was being held for the moment.  ""Hey Reed...""  Johnny started, pausing for a moment in the tent where he leaned against some of the supplies.  ""You like Susan right?""  <br/><br/>Reed carefully placed everything away, mentally taking note of inventory and double checking things when Johnny asked him what felt like a question completely out of left field.  Reed paused before glancing back at Johnny.  ""I uh what?  Yeah I like your sister... she's a good friend, why?""  Reed asked.<br/><br/>Johnny chuckled a bit, sighing as he gave a thought about Reed's blissful ignorance.   ""No no, I don't think you're understanding the question here.""  Johnny pointed out, finally he looked Reed in the eyes, gesturing at the key point of the question.  ""Do you <span class=""bb-i"">like</span> like Susan?""<br/><br/>Johnny's question hit Reed in a way he wasn't ready for, Reed squirmed a bit in place trying to hide his reaction to realizing what Johnny was talking about.  ""I uh... I mean she's... wait why do you care?""  Reed quickly had to deflect the question.  Not necessarily in an angry tone but almost a panicked sense.  Reed had thought about it for a long time in the back of his mind but 'no' always kept him from saying something.  Now that Johnny, her brother no less, was practically giving him a green light.. he wasn't sure how to approach it anymore.<br/><br/>""Dude we've all seen the way you two look at one another...""  Johnny pointed out, which Reed quickly had to mentally figure out if he had looked at her like that in the past.  ""I'm just saying sometime today when you get a chance just maybe... give her a hint.  I know her better than anyone else dude.  I'm just saying...""<br/><br/>""The two of you need to just say something to one another.""  Ben was busy dicing up vegatables as he occasionally glanced back at Susan.  Hoping she'd get the point of what his saying.<br/><br/>Sue was chopping a carrot when Ben said that out of the blue. She almost chopped her finger off and slams the knife down. ""Wh-what? How could you tell I liked Reed? Was it that obvious? Oh no! It's getting awkward isnt it? I need to back off the project don't I?"" She fretted as she'd never been in this situation before. Ben puts down his knife and puts his big strong hands on her shoulders to calm her. ""Woah woah calm down. It's NOT awkward. Me and Johnny WANT you to just be happy. I cant stand see Reed moping about and whining about not being around you. And you do a fair bit of moping about yourself after you part with him. It's really obvious to us that..you two belong together."" Susan was panicking and her breathing erratic. ""But I'm scared that if me and Reed become more than just friends, I might lose him as my best friend...what if it doesn't work out? He's so sweet and I don't wanna hurt him..""  ""I dont think you will."" Ben reassured her with a smile. Sue manages a smile back at the big lovable lug. ""Thanks Ben. Alright. I'll go talk to him after dinner."" <br/><br/>'Later'<br/><br/>""We got two hours of day light left we need to get this test underway immediately.""  Reed commanded into the walkie talkie in his hand.  The dinner didn't leave Reed or Susan a chance to respond to Johnny and Ben's advice as neither of them could get a moment alone with one another.  Finally though the teleporter was all set up, and the apple being used as the tester to be sent to the retrieval site in Albany, New York.  ""Would just be easier to use UPS or something.""  Ben joked to himself as Reed mentioned it to him.<br/><br/>Reed, Susan, Johnny, Ben, and Harvey all stood in front of the machine as Reed held the controls for it on an ipad in his hands.  He punched in coordinates and could heard the machine hum to life as the large blue beam started to change from the top of the machine.  ""Begin countdown.""  Reed called back as the speakers that relayed from the safe zone started up.  ""Countdown starting at 30...""<br/><br/>""Time to make history...""  Harvey proudly muttered to himself as he watched on, Johnny and Ben doing likewise.  Reed though was next to Susan and kept having to stop glancing over to her.  ""Um Sue I uh...""  Reed stuttered as the countdown on the machine's activation drowned out into the background of life.  ""You know Johnny said something that uh... I was thinking about and uh...""<br/><br/>Sue smiles at Reed. ""Yeah? What were you thinking?"" She edges closer to the genius who had stolen her heart. Her eyes sparkle as they peer into his big blue pearls. Her eyes tracing his very facial features from the strands of brown hair to the corner of his lips. She saw more than just a smart nerdy guy. She saw everything. A wonderful human being. Kind, funny, sweet and caring. She could feel her heart racing as she drew closer to him. <br/><br/>""Well...""  Reed started, feeling his hand start to gently wrap around her's.<br/><br/>3<br/><br/>""I was thinking that... I mean if you're cool with it...""  Reed started to lower his head down, peering into her amazing eyes, beautiful face.  His lips getting closer to her's.  <br/><br/>2<br/><br/>Reed and Susan came closer and closer together, Reed's heart thumped a million miles an hour as he had deep down dreamed of this moment and now it was all happening.<br/><br/>1<br/><br/>The machine came to life, but a sudden loud noise that wasn't suppose to be there caused Reed to snap back into reality, peering into the sudden large void in front of him.  ""Wait...""  Was the only thing he could say before everything went blank around all five of them.</div>"

As if the teleport had slowed down, in this realm maybe time flowed more slowly than hers? She noticed the red sky and purple lightning streaking across it. And then a small rift opens and her body floats back through to the real world. <br/><br/>Las Vegas, 8pm local time. <br/><br/>Outside the Bellagio Hotel, the hustle and bustle of the Las Vegas main strip hosts many tourists, beeping taxis and the bright colours of city night life. As the audience of the Grand Bellagio Fountain performance enjoys its spectacle, they did not expect a flash of light in mid air above and a human canon balling into the water below. They thought it all part of the show. However, it was Harvey teleporting back into the real world. After show producers realised it wasn't, they sought medical help for the drowning man. <br/><br/>Meanwhile, across town at a smaller fountain outside a hotel at one of the entertainment kiosks, an announcer was declaring the participants stakes. “Roll up, roll up!  Fantastic prizes to be won! Including the top prize where you could win-”<br/><br/>Suddenly a flash of light and Sue Storm appears in the fountain nearby to where he was pointing to some pearls that can be fished out of underwater. “..A woman?” He says with a shocked face. His potential clients or scapegoats scampered away from shock. Sue sits in the fountain getting wet, with a rather confused expression and a few wet strands covering her eyes like a drowned rat.<br/><br/>“Where...am I?” She asked as she climbs out of it, her clothes drenched through. The kiosk attendant blinks at her. “You aint one of them weirdo mutants are ya?”<br/><br/>She shakes her head. “N-no I'm an experimental scientist. I think our experiment just went....very wrong.” She states as she looked at the bright lights. It hurt to look at them, her head pounded like she had a migraine, and then she fell faint. The man manages to catch her as she fell unconscious. “SOMEONE HELP!”<br/><br/>A passing by doctor rushed over to help. <br/><br/>Johnny pops up at one of Las Vegas's notorious nearby Brothels, between two scantily clad women on a red silk sofa. The two women jump and look at the blonde young male. “Oh!” They start to stroke his muscled arms. Johnny looks confused at them but then grins. “Hello Ladies.” But then remembers. “Susie! Ben! Reed!” He hops to his feet, feeling quite warm. “Sorry Ladies, gotta go!” The women pout as Johnny bolts out of the building.<br/><br/>He runs out into the city streets where he heard someone yell for help. He looks toward the voice and spots a blonde haired woman collapsed. <br/><br/>“SUUUUEEEE!” He screams across the street and races over, fearing the worst had happened to his beloved sister. He runs over and shoes the doctor away, he didn't want them touching her. As he held her unconscious body, he was relieved to find her breathing. “Oh my god, Sis you're alive!”  He frets when he received a phone call from his cell in his back pocket. “Dad! We're okay, I've got Susie. She's unconscious but alive.....okay.....we'll go there right away.” He puts the phone down and picks up his sister and carries her to the nearest taxi. <br/><br/>As he put her in the back seat he told the driver to go to the MGM Grand Hotel. He was burning up. He had to take his shirt off and fan himself. “Why is it so warm?!” He protests when his sister stirs. “Mnnhh....Johnny?” She asks as she opens her eyes but couldn't look up for the lights in her eyes. She covers her eyes with her hand. “I cant focus.”<br/><br/>“Here.” He wraps his t-shirt around her eyes. “We'll be with Reed and Ben soon, okay?”<br/><br/>“Any sign of Harvey?” She asks with concern. Johnny just looked down with sadness. </div>"

Shaking her head, before turning around. <span class=""bb-i"">""No, Betty no!""</span> A deep fog came crawling in, he tried to chase her into it but he couldn't keep up with her.

Zebediah lay still, unmoving, knowing that the slightest reaction would probably earn him a bullet through his skull. Yet, it wasn't like he hadn't received a couple of them already.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">How am I not dead</span>? Killgrave wondered, for once not in control of the situation around him. <span class=""bb-i"">Why have I not bled out</span>? <br/>He inclined his eyes as far as he could to his body, but he was lying on his chest and so could not discern the situation regarding the gunshot wounds. There was indeed a gruesome puddle of blood that was undoubtedly staining his black operative clothing, though that was the least of his worries. He could not feel any pain from the wounds in his leg and elbow. Perhaps they had gone numb, or the bullets had damaged various nerves leaving them paralysed and without response. However, he knew he would be able to twitch or move either body part if he tried, so only the former possibility was likely.<br/>Several voices were originating from different points of the warehouse, each one displaying the telltale signs of concern, stress and even fear. Killgrave wondered what had happened to prompt these emotions - these were Government officials who had apprehended or driven off all the rebel opposition in the area. Then again... <span class=""bb-i"">That queer purple hue spreading across my arm</span>. Zebediah cursed silently. He had so many questions, yet the barrel of the pistol prevented him from answering them. He instead thought and planned to himself for what seemed like an eternity, but was likely only a couple dozen of minutes. He daydreamed of the murders of each of the Shadow Conqueror officials, the Government, frankly anyone he thought of in the godforsaken country. <span class=""bb-i"">I have no allies now</span>. <span class=""bb-i"">I am a dead man walking</span>.<br/><br/>A new set of footsteps then approached Killgrave's vicinity. The frantic hubbub of the warehouse was extinguished instantly, was replaced by a dutiful silence. A clear conclusion reached the betrayed Sokovian. He could almost see them all saluting despite his restricted view of the hard ground. <br/><br/>""I cannot believe your incompetence!"" Shrieked an assertive and deep voice. Killgrave instantly picked out that something was... wrong. There was something strange about the man. He had adopted a vast array of accents, performed them with unrivalled talent, yet for every man - the accent from their homeland never quite faded away. Only another vocal master would have known, but the President of Sokovia was not Sokovian. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/6bzYDur.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>She had already sent her bishops on their way to the airport. Doom had, admittedly, surprised her by acting so suddenly, and his effective seizing of Sokovia's central airport was ostentatious to say the least. Wanda now knew she was dealing with a strong character, a self-righteous king bordering on utter narcissism. The mere fact that his mechanical minions were modelled after he himself, with their billowing green capes and glinting armour, proved the monarch's ostensible self-obsession. Then again, with Doom's identical design to his underlings, he would almost always be able to lead astray enemies and accosters and allow himself to survive. He was, obviously, a genius mechanical engineer - or had one working for him. <br/>Wanda had employed a similar sort of strategy in this situation - one of her 'bishops' was a young female named Arissa, and she was a low level mutant from northern Africa. She held no credit apart from her ability to allow one to see through her eyes and speak through her mouth. Arissa never talked about where her own consciousness and spirit went when Wanda was inhabiting her, and the Witch was not about to ask. Arissa herself was meek and reserved, having no value aside from her ability. As long as she could stay alive, Wanda was content to utilise her as a duplicitous envoy. <br/><br/>It was better that she did not appear in person - for she might at any moment have lost control and ruthlessly set herself upon the President or whomever he sent to represent him, or worse - Doom himself. Wanda did not like to be on equal terms with anyone she did not choose to be, so the forcing of her hand had brought her to look on Doom in a somewhat negative light even before the two's first meeting. Inhabiting Arissa was ideal, as she could draw herself back if aggressive urges started to take control, and if she failed to retreat then there was not much harm that Arissa could inflict.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">It is time</span>.<br/>She cast a sort of spiritual form of herself out from where she sat on a plush and opulent chair in a secure building, travelling some distance in the space of nanoseconds. Suddenly, she found herself amongst a small crowd of people - the Conqueror's envoys and their heavily armed guard. She was walking through a side entrance to the airport, under a dirty stretch of cheap glass with it's moderate but unattractive infrastructure. Her 'possession' had caused Arissa to stop for a moment, and the other 'bishop' - a laconic and heavy-set man with the nickname 'Baron' - was looking upon her with a severe impatience. Only he from the group knew of Arissa's ability, so he knew that Wanda's emergence into Arissa's body had just occurred. The guards around them waited, obviously puzzled, but they knew better to speak out against two important members of the syndicate. <br/>Wanda caught Baron's eye and nodded indistinctly, and the two resumed their movements towards the open airfield where Doom awaited.<br/>It was part of the Witch's plan now to throw the blame for the border attack and the stolen equipment onto the Government, setting her up with a chance at further negotiations with the Latverian monarch later. Doom's equipment - at least what they had seen from it - was powerful and impressive, and Wanda knew that arming her forces with such weaponry would render the Government helpless against the Conquerors. Finally, after years of hers and her father's life, they would take revenge upon the Government's decades of subjugation. <br/>Arissa's eyes flashed with a scarlet fury as she and Baron pushed through throngs of Sokovian airport security and the first signs of the Sokovian army, ever so surely striding towards Doom.</div>"

He was getting more frustrated by her by the second and finally he just crossed his arms glaring right at her even through the helmet.<br/><br/>""I don't know, I don't care, go fuck yourself, leave.”<br/><br/>""If it is a fight you want, so be it."" Thor said, her voice eerily even. She couldn't exactly help it though could she, she was an Asgardian, a warrior, she'd tried to use her words, but they'd proved fruitless, she'd do things the old fashioned way. <br/><br/>Mjolnir had lain dormant by her side thus far, dangling harmlessly from her wrist, but with a quick flick of her hand it was drawn up, her fingers coiled around the handle and ready to strike. She tossed the hammer with ease in Iron Man's direction, positive that the enchanted hammer would meet its mark, she had great aim after-all, and the hammer was magic, and Iron Man was a relatively close target to hit.<br/><br/>Iron Man reactively reached out for the hammer as she threw it.  Wondering how throwing a tool at him was suppose to work.  When it came in contact with his gloved hand though the force was nothing at all his physics brain was prepared for.  As the hammer practically kept going, it cracked and smashed through his glove shooting pain through his hand as Iron Man howled in surprised pain.  Being launched back over his desk in a tumble as he had to get himself back upright using his good hand.<br/><br/>Thor smirked to herself. Mjolir:1, Metal-Man:0, SCORE ONE FOR TEAM THOR!!! Her hand raised out, the physics-defying hammer soared back into her grasp and she took a step towards the desk where Iron Man had been mercilessly flung by her hammer. She watched him get back up on his feet and stood her ground. Even though he wore a high tech suit, he was still a mortal man, and outside of his suit, he was a relatively puny looking man in Thor's opinion, then again most Asgardian's were rather large and sturdily built, the vast majority of Midgard's populace were puny to her.<br/><br/>As Iron Man got back to his feet he began to quickly realize not only was the suit maybe not what he figured statically or she was much stronger than first impressions gave him. Not that the first impression gave him a lot to go on really. Still his right arm from the hand to the elbow was in a kind of pain he had never felt before. Just a small movement in it caused Tony to grit his teeth and fight through what was an intense searing pain. Strangely there was a certain sense of memory creeping into the back of Iron Man's mind about how he had never been in a fight before. Usually the prep schools he attended had a pretty healthy security system. The few times he ever got close to ending up in a fight, usually because his mouth or taking someone else's girl, someone would end up breaking things up before anything could go anywhere. Barring occasionally the few wildly swung hay makers.<br/><br/>As James ducked under Tony's desk with Pepper Iron Man boasted himself up into the air over the desk. Extending out his left hand and having the suit unload a full laser blast into Thor to either stop her now or slow her down enough to start trying to form a plan B, as the suit in its presence form wasn't going to cut it. ""JARVIS, send a distress signal to SHIELD. Need back up on top floor of Stark Tech HQ immediately."" Stark told his AI system. 'Noted, SHIELD already has people on the way, including one unidentifiable individual.' The last part gave Iron Man a quick idea as he landed in front of his desk and stopped the laser strike. He quickly glanced over to a window, ""Hey isn't that the guy you're looking for?"" He asked curiously.<br/><br/>Reflexively Thor threw her arm up to protect her face from the blast, her wrist brace absorbing the brunt of the blast, a wave of heat from the blast hit her and slightly burned her knuckles as they were unprotected by the bracer that only covered her wrist to her elbow.The laser blast hadn't done much aside from annoying her and force her to take one step backwards. The damage was superficial.<br/>""Loki!?"" Thor exclaimed glancing at the totally empty window. She growled at the lack of Loki in the window.<br/><br/>Iron Man quickly took advantage of the foolish, albeit effective distraction. The jet thrusts in his boots kicked in and launched him into Thor. Yanking her off her feet and slamming her hard into the solid oak doors leading into his office. Leading into the receptionist room where Iron Man quickly started grabbing everything in the room and smashing it onto the downed Thor. Wood chairs and metal desk, small ivory pillars and the plants on top of them, and a solid wood coffee table. Iron Man was beyond thinking about property damage, plus at least he was planning on remodeling the receptionist room so at least everything went to a good purpose of trying to slow down this crazy lady.<br/><br/>Thor had to admit, he'd caught her off guard. If he hadn't been suited up, he probably wouldn't have been able to move her an inch, but with the thrusters in his boots, he gained enough speed and momentum to knock her off her feet. <br/><br/>The doors exploded in splinters and shards as Iron Man tossed her through. Unable to recover herself quick enough after being totally blindsided, Iron Man managed to throw a few bits of furniture at her before she began to pull herself up, the onslaught of furniture was a hinderance, but once she managed to get her feet under her she was able to pull herself up, shoving the desk and coffee table aside. An ivory pillar flew toward her but she was ready for it, after taking a pummelling from the other pieces of furniture. THe pillar met its end at Mjolnir, exploding into a firework of chunks that skittered across the floor. <br/><br/>Iron Man had succeeded in his plan to slow her down a bit, but now she was back up again. He'd need to either escape, negotiate, or somehow defeat her but brute force wasn't in his favour. She knew even with his metal suit, he wouldn't be strong enough. She'd shattered his hand-armour with one easy blow, and he'd chucked her through a solid door and thrown an entire office-load of furniture on top of her, and she'd managed to pull herself up with little more than some superficial scrapes. If he had any doubts about her being a Goddess before, surely he'd think otherwise by now. <br/><br/>""Doth thou have a death wish? You dare challenge the Mighty Thor, The Goddess of Thunder?"" she laughed a little, ""Thou art most foolish, your suit is weak and without it, what art thou?"" <br/><br/>Attempting to trick her into believing Loki was there was something that particularly angered Thor. For that, Stark would pay, it was a gross action of disrespect to her, she who would protect this realm from a wicked God. <br/><br/>She leapt forward towards Iron Man and swung the hammer out to the side to knock him aside.</div>"

It swarmed him, caressed him, let him horrified and fascinated at the same time.  He was afraid deeply he was gone now.  The world he knew and existed on was no longer where he was going to be ever again.  This strange world of deep red skies and rocky landscapes was going to be his home now.  Though suddenly Reed felt a rift open up on him and begin sucking him in, though in the murky haze he saw a man in the distance.  Ragged and unshaven beyond relief, but Reed realized immediately who it was.<br/><br/>“Dad?”<br/><br/>He never got an answer, as suddenly he was surrounded by water.  Sure he knew how to swim, a result of a summer spent on the Jersey shore with mom and dad.  Still the shock of everything caused him to flail mindlessly and choke on what tasted like very chlorinated water.  Finally though he felt human contact as a pair of hands reached down and hoisted him up out of the water.<br/><br/>“DdDdddduudddeee...”  The two guys in question were in swim trunks, shirtless, and completely hammered by the sound of things.  “You okay man, you fell out of the sky....”  The other guy asked, again the stench of cheap booze reeking from his mouth.  Coughing violently and finally catching his breath Reed paused, “Yeah no... I'm uh... I'm fine.”  <br/><br/>He had to steal a towel from the two drunks as he was still in his clothes but soaked.  After sneaking away from the pool he quickly realized where he was, Las Vegas.  How did he end up here though?  If the teleporter was suppose to work he should be in Albany right?  After talking someone into loaning him a cell phone he was able to call Dr. Storm and let them know he was there.  They told him the others were there too interestingly, and that he had gotten them a room at the MGM Grand to stay at for the night.  The five of them had been missing for an hour before all reemerging in Vegas.  By the sound of things though Dr. Storm sounded both relieved and furious at the same time.  Wither at him or the experiment failing itself Reed wasn't sure.  Though part of him hoped the man didn't see Reed and Susan get close the way they did.<br/><br/>It was ironic that Reed wound up at the MGM Grand's pool the way he did.  He didn't have to worry about going far in wet clothes to get to his room.  Though as he passed by the pool area one of the two drunks that he met ran up to him.  “Hey man you dropped this thingy at the pool.”  The guy handed Reed something he wasn't expecting at all.  It was the apple that was meant for Albany, it made sense it didn't make it there given what happened to them.  However it was what had happened to the apple that really confused him.  The apple had been completely encased in ice.  <br/><br/>As Reed got his room key from the front desk, having to tell him “Don't ask” when they asked him why he was in clothes and soaking wet.  Reed took the elevator up and got to his room.  Though he wasn't sure what it was but as he got closer and closer Reed felt more and more sick.  Eventually when he got to his room he couldn't help himself.  Having making a straight line to the bath room.  Where he felt his stomach unload, his body hunched down and Reed experienced a sickness he had never felt before.  He couldn't even give his brain a chance to consider if it was all some side effect of the experiment that was causing him to violently vomit.<br/><br/>Strangely though the more he puked the better Reed was feeling.  By the time Reed had finally finished after what felt like an hour.  He came out of the bathroom feeling completely better, heck weirdly better than he had ever felt.  He changed out of the clothes he had on, taking the hotel room's courtesy robe and throwing it on before laying down at the bed.  After a little while Reed heard a knock on the door and after a moment of hoping it was Susan, Ben came in lurched over and covered in sand and dirt.  <br/><br/>“Well... that fucking sucked.”  Ben joked, though he clearly wasn't feeling all that great as he had to groan out the last few parts of it.  Reed couldn't even help but nod his head in agreement.<br/><br/>He then realized how Ben looked miserable and sickly like he had before.  “Are you okay?  I mean I just got gone puking in the bathroom.  Why don't you go in and try too?”  Reed suggested getting off of the bed to help Ben.  <br/><br/>His friend though rejected the help, instead taking a lay down on the other bed in the room.  “No I could smell it from down the hall.  I don't feel puke-y just like everything inside me hurts.  I'll be fine man don't worry about it.”  <br/><br/>Reed frowned, worried about what was happening to them as he waited for any sign Harvey, Johnny, and most importantly Susan made it.</div>"

The locals called the structure the ""Daily Bugle."" Apparently it was a facility built for the express purpose of delivering biased journalism to the drooling masses of New York. Mark brought one such piece of propaganda up to where he could look at it: a newspaper, the humans called it. Covered in pictures and writing. Why did this ""Bugle"" continue to use such an outdated form of communication to deliver its message to the people of New York City. Even here, on the primitive planet called earth, they had more efficient means of transferring information from one location to multiple locations. A network of computers devised many years ago that allowed the public access to the 'information superhighway.' Despite the existence of this system, the Daily Bugle and a number of other outlets insisted on having their opinions transported by hand. It baffled Zhib-Ran, who's own world used a sort of 'internet' to spread news. Everyone carried a device that could be wirelessly accessed at any time by those allowed to present information to the entire planet. <br/><br/>That was another thing this planet, and more specifically the western portion of it, lacked: censorship. Why allow men like this J. Jonah Jameson to spew lies about important public figures like the Spider-Man? The Spider-Man is a hero. He serves as an icon to the people of New York City; the denizens look up to him as their savior. Well, they should, anyway. From what Zhib-Ran had seen, not everyone appreciated the wall-crawler's presence in the big apple. That fact can be attributed to the mud slinging of Jameson more than likely.<br/><br/>""Hmph."" Hyperion puffed as he observed the front page. A picture of Spider-Man slinging through New York's skyline. <span class=""bb-i"">Odd,</span> Zhib-Ran thought. <span class=""bb-i"">How did they manage to get a shot from this angle?</span> The photographer must have been standing on the ledge of a massive structure to get a shot from that high up. How could he have known the Spider was swinging by at that exact moment, to take a picture without blur? How very odd. Zhib-Ran began to read the article on the front page. It was an opinion piece written by multiple authors. The article raised an interesting question: Should superheroes be allowed to work within the city without regulation by the government? <span class=""bb-i"">Of course not.</span> Hyperion answered within his own mind.<span class=""bb-i""> You can't trust an ordinary citizen to do the work of the police.</span> But law enforcement on earth was not equipped to deal with the threats that required the attention of superheroes. Hyperion went on to read the rest of the article on page eleven. The Daily Bugle offered a simple solution: SHIELD. They wanted people to look at SHIELD and see how well their system worked, and how it could be applied to law enforcement at large within the United States of America. Vigilantes are brought in, trained, and given badges before they're sent off to work for the city. They would get a paycheck, benefits, the whole package. What's not to love?<br/><br/>The article failed to mention, and Hyperion failed to realize, the shortcomings of such a plan. For Zhib-Ran hadn't the time to mull over the positives and negatives, because Captain America needed his assistance.<br/><br/>""Agent Milton."" A voice suddenly spoke from Zhib's watch.<br/><br/>Hyperion raised the device closer to his face and pressed a button on the side. ""This is Milton. Go ahead."" Zhib-Ran was still getting used to calling himself ""Agent Mark Milton"" instead of Zhib-Ran or Hyperion. Why the humans wished for his identity to remain a mystery, Zhib did not know. But he had chosen to work with SHIELD until the day when he no longer needed them. For Hyperion's plans to come into fruition, he needed SHIELD's full trust. So, for now, Hyperion would do as they told. No questions asked.<br/><br/>""Captain America has activated his distress beacon and requested your assistance. He's currently in the Savage Lands, Antarctica- you should be able to find him without too much trouble.""<br/><br/>""Of course. I'll be right there.""<br/><br/>Hyperion switched the device off and set his newspaper down. He quickly removed his grey suit jacket and carefully folded it up, setting that down as well. Zhib removed a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on before straightening his tie and jumping to his feet. A quick rolling up of his sleeves, and Hyperion was ready for work.<br/><br/>Then he jumped.<br/><br/>Zhib-Ran fell from the roof of the Daily Bugle towards the busy streets below. People looked up and pointed; he could hear screams and calls for help as he rapidly descended towards the asphalt. Time itself seemed to distort as Hyperion activated his powers. Everything slowed down to a crawl. Zhib glanced around with his enhanced vision at the faces of the people below. A moment later, after he had finished enjoying the fresh air, Hyperion began to fly. He suddenly shot forward at speeds approaching light, flying above the New York skyline. He was careful not to get too close to any buildings; his powers allowed him to keep air disruption to a minimum, however there was still the chance that Zhib-Ran could shatter the windows with the amount of air he was kicking behind him at the speed he was going. If Hyperion wasn't able to regulate air flow around him, he imagined flying at light speed would be equivalent to setting off a nuclear bomb in the middle of the city.<br/><br/>Good thing that wasn't a probably for him, isn't it?<br/><br/>It took less than a second for Hyperion to reach the research facility. However, for the extra-dimensional alien, it felt like quite a bit longer. He had to fly up into space and use his telescopic vision combined with his X-ray vision to locate Sam Wilson. Then he had to fly down to Antarctica and traverse the Savage Land without crashing. It felt like an eternity. If Zhib wasn't so experienced with his powers he would have wondered if he reached Sam in time to save him. But he was experienced, so that wasn't an issue either.<br/><br/>Hyperion smashed through the metal and concrete that made up the facilities walls. Debris froze in mid air as Zhib took the time to examine in the situation. The room was filled with what appeared to be dinosaurs in strange glass cases. Cap was looking at one such dinosaur. The good captain appeared to have locked eyes with the creature. Hyperion turned to see a group of AIM agents approaching from another door, all of them armed with state of the art laser weaponry. They wouldn't affect Hyperion; he'd feel them, but it'd probably just tickle. Time sped back up to normal as Hyperion slowed to a stop. The AIM agents entered the room and pointed their weapons at the intruders. However, Cap didn't move. His eyes were stuck on the dinosaur. That was when Hyperion realized that the strange earth creature in the tube must have had the captain under some sort of mind control.<br/><br/>He had to act fast. Hyperion flew forward, right at the pterodactyl. He tackled the beast out of its tube and dragged the flying monster through a nearby wall. And then another wall. And another. Once they were outside, Hyperion let go of Sauron and allowed the monster to get up. The naive ""hero"" believed it was just some misunderstood lizard, and believed it would fly away after that. ""Go on."" Hyperion urged. ""Get outta here.""<br/><br/>Hopefully Cap could deal with the AIM guys on his own, because the dinosaur didn't seem very willing to leave.</div>"

Some... strange energy. He would have to watch her closely. Not everything was as it seemed. He chuckled about that to himself, of course not everything was as it seemed. Was that not why he was here? Or at least that was why he was saying he was here. The only thing true was that he was fiercely loyal to Latveria and intended to protect it from these thugs who encroached upon sovereign ground. The Doom dogs were patrolling around the area, while the Doombots simply stood behind him. He was currently using the decoy models rather than the more average drone design. <br/><br/>Always keep them guessing after all. Though one Doom would talk they had no idea if it was the real Doom or not.<br/><br/>That is when one of them spoke. ""You have no need of your guards here. No weapons will be fired in my presence."" He turned to the Sokovian governments representative who was approaching with even more guards and the military was moving in. He raised his hand. ""Your army shall come no further, this is to discover who the aggressor towards Latveria was so I can then take a course of action. There shall be no combat here, if you wish to fight my forces will intervene and I cannot guarantee a bloodless conflict."" The army stopped advancing, but did not retreat. At least they saw some sense of reason.<br/><br/>As both the representatives closed he tipped his head slightly, not enough to show subservience but enough to show some iota of respect. ""I have come today to discover the truth. Someone sought to take Latverian weapons by force, wearing the uniforms of the government. I will no longer allow your country to fight in a petty civil war that threatens your own and my own people-"" Part of this was for the cameras that were already gathering in the distance. He wasn't sure how many of them could get audio on what he was saying but he had to be sure. ""-You now have time to alleviate yourselves of any guilt so that I can come to a decision that will benefit your country."" The Sokovian Governments representative went to speak and he just raised his hand.<br/><br/>""I think you will find, that it is polite to let the Lady speak first.""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/unsuper/images/3/33/Captain_America_Title.png/revision/latest?cb=20141214031746""/></div><br/><br/>Wilson wasn't entirely sure what was going on, it felt like is brain was being re-wired and then there was a crash as something came through the roof. Whatever it was it hit it <span class=""bb-i"">hard</span> and then went after the beast on front of him. As soon as it's concentration was broken he felt the control of his limbs return, obviously whatever attempt at mind control he had started hadn't been completed. That was always good. Then he heard the panic of the A.I.M agents behind him, stamping his foot down onto his shield it bounced up onto his awaiting arm. <br/><br/>He had to hand it to Steve Rogers, while he was a bit apprehensive about the shield to start with it was pretty damn useful. With his right hand he pulled some explosives off his belt and threw them around the hole in the wall before using his pack to follow the two combatants who went tumbling through the wall. Once clear he hit the trigger, the anti-air defenses, wall. Everything came tumbling down. Though comms were quiet. He activated his comm as he followed the devastation left behind by Milton. ""Fury, this is Wilson. We've got some kind of super here, and A.I.M are involved. Cordon of the Savage land and send <span class=""bb-i"">no-one</span> in. This is serious.""<br/><br/>""Copy that Wilson, did you get our gift.""

I wonder if the British are coming!”<br/><br/>	“So, if the four of you are down here, whose piloting your plane?”  Lorelei pondered aloud.  “Boys?”  She said as she quickly turned her head towards both Avalanche and Pyro.<br/><br/>	“Don’t have to tell us twice!”  Avalanche responded.  The two mutants aimed their arms up towards the Blackbird and unleashed their mutant powers against the jet.  After a few seconds of being barraged by both blasts of fire and seismic waves, the Blackbird began to lose altitude, precariously falling towards the innocent hostages below.<br/><br/>	However, Ms. Marvel darted up towards the falling X-Jet, pressing her back against the aerial vehicle in order to steady it.  Using her energy-based powers to help slow the plane’s descend, Ms. Marvel guided the plane over the heads of the hundreds of people below and safely landed the plane in the unoccupied baseball field that was located in the Boston Common park.<br/><br/>	Once the Blackbird was safely earthbound, Ms. Marvel turned her attention back to the Brotherhood and bolted in their direction.  She snatched Pyro from the midst of the other evil mutants and flew towards the nearby Frog Pond.  Her initial intent was to drench the pyromaniac in water.  However, she discovered that the Frog Pond was too shallow to be of much use and that if she would have dropped him into it at the speed at which she was flying, she could have killed him.<br/><br/>	Therefore, Ms. Marvel performed an aerial U-turn and headed in the opposite direction.  By this time, Pyro had already in vain begun to try to wrestle himself from Ms. Marvel’s grasp.  Across Charles Street, past where she had safely landed the Blackbird, Ms. Marvel saw a second pond that this time could be used to quench the fire-powered mutant.  Once she was close to the pond, Ms. Marvel decelerated so that Pyro’s impact with the water would not be identical to him slamming into a brick wall.<br/><br/>	After she ‘discarded’ Pyro, Ms. Marvel flew back towards where the rest of the Brotherhood (and the people who call themselves the ‘X-Men’) were standing a few seconds ago.  While Ms. Marvel had been dealing with Pyro, the Brotherhood and the X-Men began to engage one another.  Lorelei was the first to make a move, using her hypnotic voice to try to get the Beast and Quicksilver to become her little pawns.<br/><br/>	“Men!”  She began, “You are slaves to your hormones and your bodies.  Listen to my voice and do my bidding.  Destroy your fellow X-Men.”<br/><br/>	“<span class=""bb-i"">‘Roll some sweet wax in your hand and stuff it in your companions’ ears, lest any of them can listen’</span>, Homer’s <span class=""bb-i"">Odyssey</span>, Book 12.

She knew he struggled against his conflicting emotions toward the Brotherhood and she was there for him as a companion and emotional guide just as much as the Professor was. <br/><br/>As Lorelei's powers were rendered useless against the male X-men members. Avalanche decided to have a go next. He points his arms at the ground and the floor beneath Jean, Storm and Beast's feat was in the direct path of an earthquake that would tear the concrete apart from under their feet. Luckily Storm could fly and easily evade the attack. Jean used her levitation to lift her and Beast of the ground. Storm then conjures an electric bolt to strike at Avalanche, not so much that it would kill him, merely shock him into submission. <br/><br/>As Jean puts Beast down, he roars and leaps at Blob. Jean stood in front of Lorelei and pointed one arm at her. ""Make your move, Harlet."" Her emerald eyes narrow at the she witch, daring her to try something against the mistress of telekinesis and telepathy. She would either read her moves before she made them or use anything towards her as a weapon. Either way Jean Grey was a formidable enemy that Lorelei made this day. She could not stand seeing a woman try to use men the way she did. This rubbed her up the wrong way and anger boiled up within her. She was more and more angry with each passing day. Was this due to her heartbreak over Scott and Lee finally reaching the surface? <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y28/anime_vicky/Valkyrie%20logo%20self%20made_zpsqlnkwmth.png""/></div><br/><br/>Sabertooth snarls at the Asgardian Princess Sigyn reincarnate who did not yet fully realise her own legacy. “Clever girl.” He paces around her. <br/><br/>Clay instinctively shoots at the cat like man, who was too quick to take a bullet. He leaps upward and toward Maria. Victoria's eyes grew wide, he was about to hurt a weaker agent. Her wings sprout forth and helps her glide over the sand, which picks up in a comet-like tail in her wake. Victoria's sword reaches Sabertooth before his claws impacted Maria. She brings it across his arm and slashes it through his flesh. He reels in agony on the floor but she watched his skin heal over. <br/><br/>“Regeneration.” <br/><br/>“Yes....like you. Valkyrie. We know all about you too.” Victor Creed stands fully upright. “We have interest in you as well. But we chose Hulk first. Now just imagine if we had Hulk AND Valkyrie DNA fused together, what madness we could create in this already mad world?” He jeers. <br/><br/>“You're a monster.” Valkyrie shakes her head in disbelief at how someone could think of such evil things.<br/><br/>“No. Hulk is the monster. I am merely an instigator!” He yells as he lunges toward her and claws into her shield. She turns her body to bring her shield down as she brings her sword hilt up and smacks him under the chin so hard it rendered him unconscious. <br/><br/>Victor lay on the scorching ground lifeless. “The only monsters here are people like YOU.” She growls back. “Tag him and bring him aboard the Helicarrier. He'll lead us to his friends. Scan for some kind of tracking device within his body. It's likely they would put something under his skin and it would heal over.” She sheaths her blade and turns her gaze behind them as if something made her. <br/><br/>She saw a figure in the distance, a wavy black silhouette on the edge of the horizon line. It carried a large hammer. It was walking away from them and disappeared. Victoria wasnt sure if this was real or a mirage. “That...way....” She points in the direction of where the figure appeared. She felt as if she'd seen a ghost from her past. A flash of a red cape enters her mind. Being embraced by someone warm and large in comfort. Was it just a memory or a taste of things to come? She did not know. <br/><br/>“Why that way?” Maria asks as Clay drags a tied up Sabertooth across the floor toward the small jet.<br/><br/>“I feel as though...someone or some..thing out there is helping us. Guiding us.” Victoria drifts off in her own world and looks toward the sky. “A power we cannot yet understand.” A vulture passes by overhead and squawks. <br/><br/>----<br/><br/>On the helipad, Sabertooth was in one of their cells. Victoria headed the navigation and stood where usually the director would, guiding the pilots. “How long do we go this way, Ma'am?”<br/><br/>“Until I say so.” She was sure she would receive another sign in due time. The first sign of the silhouetted figure indeed showed her the way the Team X's plane flew. They were following its fume trail as a scientist confirmed from the lab. Valkryie nodded her head in acknowledgement at the message and folds her arms. “Hold on Bruce Banner. We're coming.”</div>"

Seriously did no one think to put the thing into stealth mode?  It didn't help he listen to Jean Gray use 'harlet' and Beast quote some old book.  As much as the current stream of numb skulls in the Brotherhood irritated Quicksilver, his new teammates were nothing impressive either.  A bunch of scholars who don't know what a fight looks or feels like.  If any of them were back in Sokovia in any one of the guerrila missions Quicksilver ran they would've been captured or killed easily.  Still Quicksilver had to accept they were better than the alternatives in front of them, especially Blob.<br/><br/>“No the British aren't coming because you ate them you stupid fat fuck!”  Quicksilver snarled back at the big brute who didn't seem too phased by the baseball bat to the skull.  “Language Pietro!”  Storm snipped back at him, who he didn't say anything too because truthfully she was someone he had respect for.  As Avalanche suddenly though launched an earthquake Quicksilver was able to focus.  Using his speed to dance against the rumbling, cracked Earth as it came at him.  Quickly he started grabbing hold of the men Lorelei had under her control before the X-Men had arrived.  Moving them far enough away that they would no longer be under her power as the rest of the team got to work on the Brotherhood.</div>"

Ignoring the smirking gaze that came as the boy’s reply, America turned her attention back to the warehouse. It looked relatively the same from when she had been here the day before. Empty. Desolate. America hated it. <br/><br/>Agitated at the fact that she had yet to make any headway, the super powered heroine made her way back towards her temporary partner.<br/><br/>“You getting anything, Chico?”<br/><br/>“Let me just take a gander, chica.” Quentin Quire jeered in response before bring his hands up in front of him. After a failed attempt at cracking his knuckles to show that he was ready to tackle the challenge, Quentin coughed awkwardly before slamming his eye sockets shut. America watched in awe as the young mutant seemed to scrunch up his face in agony. She could only imagine what was going on that head of his. Even America Chavez had to admit that telepaths were interesting. It was a shame then that Quire here was a massive asshole. <br/><br/>As if on cue, the mutant slowly opened his mouth. “I’m hearing…I’m hearing the letter B. Does anyone in the room know of someone starting with a B?”<br/><br/>“Piss off Quire, this is serious.” America groaned, rolling her eyes. “Quit your stupid medium impression and get the hell back to Staten Island.”<br/><br/>Angrily, America turned on her heal and began to head towards the warehouse door. This had been a mistake asking Quire. Telepathy wasn’t the answer to this. She would have to find her guy some other way. Somehow…<br/><br/>“Wait…” Quentin called nervously, running slightly to catch up. “I’m sorry, I was just messing around! Please, wait!”<br/><br/>America continued walking, striding out through the warehouse door and out into the Manhattan street. She was about to take off into the sky, when a hand pulled her back down. <br/><br/>“I found something.” Quire explained quickly, before letting go, fearing that America might strike. <br/><br/>“You know who’s behind this?”<br/><br/>“Not exactly…” America turned to leave. “No, wait. I don’t know who it is, but whoever came through this warehouse from your… dimension, was thinking about one person.”<br/><br/>America turned to face the scrawny teenager, a mix of confusion and accomplishment on her face. “Who?”<br/><br/>“Mr Bishop.”<br/><br/>“<span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios!</span> Who the hell is Mr Bishop.”<br/><br/>Quentin shot a smile, before indicating for America to turn around with a nod of his head. Turning, America eyes scanned the street, before finally landing them on a brightly coloured billboard. Despite the mass of graffiti, America could just make out the writing; Bishop Packaging. To the right of the company name sat a huge image of a middle-aged man in a suit, whom America could only assume was Mr Bishop himself. A smile spread across America’s face. They were finally getting somewhere.<br/><br/>“Hey, maybe he has a hot daughter.” Quire joked from behind.<br/><br/>America shot him a look of both anger and intrigue.<br/><br/>“Sorry Princess, your psychic defences aren’t that great!”<br/></div>"

One of them spoke as she came to a halt with Baron before them. The armed guards formed a horseshoe originating a few paces behind them, their machine guns nestled nervously underneath their arms.<br/><br/>""You have no need of guards here. No weapons will be fired in my presence."" The one on the far left hand side spoke out - when clearly the assembled envoys of the Sokovian Government and the Shadow Conquerors, as well as a few mismatched members of other rebel groups and royal officials, had expected the Doom in the middle to be the one to represent them. Either way, the man - or whatever it was - spoke in a harsh and disdainful tone. On the other hand, he showed remarkable control in his dialect, allowing him to immediately take control of the situation. All of the figures were heavy set, towering, and embellished to a further degree by the glinting silver armour that protruded from beneath their delicate green cloaks. Arissa narrowed her eyes at the face masks, but she could not make out any sign of humanity. An efficient form in which to appear, thought Wanda as she examined the Dooms while one spoke, expelling any resemblance of emotion to fully instill fear in the opposition.<br/>She glanced at Baron to note his dim-witted eyes, clearly challenged and offended by the Latverian monarch. Doom finished his speech, that was ostentatiously littered with commands, and then cut the Government man short while turning to face Arissa and Baron.<br/>Wanda's mood was dark, and she knew Arissa's fists would be subconsciously clenched. The proximity between the Conquerors and the Government without conflict was unprecedented, and she did not take it well that this man, or myth as he appeared, could so easily gather them all to discuss their complex and long running war.<br/><br/>""I think you'll find,"" Wanda exclaimed, putting some effort into restraining her anger, ""that your mere statement declaring it was Government men that accosted your borders discerns the perpetrator, Lord Doom.""<br/><br/>As everyone turned to face the Doom that had been speaking, his voice began to emit from another forcing everyone to turn their heads to face the new one. <span class=""bb-i"">The easiest way to win, is to keep your opponent off balance.</span> The longer he did that, the lest restless they would become and the less likely things were to devolve into fighting. While he could handle a fight he <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> here to discern the truth so he could act accordingly while it would be no harder to face the rebels and the Government it was an unfavourable outcome.<br/><br/>""While you have a point, M'Lady, I shall ask you to open your mind a bit more. While uniforms of the Government were worn that does not mean the men beneath were of the same mind. You shall learn one day that not everything is as it seems-"" Choosing his words carefully, he purposefully laid in a hint of a threat that he knew she wasn't quite as she appeared to be. ""-One of you could be trying to play me against the other and rest assured it will not work. I require as much evidence as possible in order for you to convince me that you are innocent and that you are fighting the, pardon the Western expression - good fight.""<br/><br/>All of the Dooms looked at the female speaker. ""Never simply-"" The voice moved to a new host. ""-Believe your eyes.""<br/><br/>""While that is all very dramatic of you,"" Drawled Wanda through her conduit, ""You may have overlooked some pivotal factors. Tell me, Lord, have you observed the rulers of Sokovia over the past decades? Have you seen the withered husks of the oppressed populace? This Government is not fit to govern a farm, never mind a country. You mentioned men attacking your borders? It seems a fit action for the desperate state in which the President and his lackeys must find themselves. Do you not concur?""<br/><br/>The Dooms nodded. ""I always watch my neighbours my dear, however it is also possible that your organisation has been watching me. Seen the power I wield and tried to play me against your foes."" He signalled to the government representatives.<br/><br/>""I believe it is time we heard the counter argument.""<br/><br/>The government representative, a burly and brooding man Wanda knew as Aleksei Systevich stepped up from the small crowd of Government officials who were clumped around advising him. He leered at Wanda and Baron as he stepped up before the three Dooms. The man was wearing a strangely large overcoat that obscured his body up to his feet. Systevich's face suddenly twisted in shock, and he put on a bumbling gesture with his huge hands. <br/><br/>""Oh, uhm, excuse me, Latverian."" Aleksei spun and began striding briskly back towards his group. Wanda could have been wrong but... <span class=""bb-i"">Is the ground... shaking?</span><br/>Systevich bent down, and his motley crew of advisors began to back off towards the large airport building behind them all. The muzzles of the Sokovian army's guns were still aimed at the Latverian metalmen, and with a crippling realisation, Wanda knew their weapons would not move to subdue the rapidly assembling creature that Systevich was becoming.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">What did they use to call him before he became the President's lapdog?

Hyperion glanced over at Captain America as he hovered out of a hole in the wall on falcons' wings. It would seem the Captain had finished with his opposition quickly and efficiently; what a good little soldier. <span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps I'll keep him. He'd make a decent enforcer when I take over the earth.</span> Zhib-Ran thought. In that brief moment, when Hyperion let his mind wander, he left himself open to attack. Sauron charged forward with unexpected speed and slammed into Hyperion's midsection. The two supers went crashing into the nearby jungle, knocking down trees and scattering foliage as Sauron blitzed his attacker with all he had. ""You're stronger than you look."" Zhib-Ran commented non-nonchalantly as the two came tumbling to a halt. Hyperion and Sauron both took to the air, floating away from each other. A smug look crossed Zhib's face, while Sauron continued to glare on in silence. ""You want a fight, then, reptile?"" He asked. ""I'll give you a fight. You can even have the first punch."" Zhib taunted and tilted his face in such a way that his cheek was left wide open.<br/><br/>""I can practically taste the power oozing out of you."" Sauron spoke. The creature's voice was dark and gravelly. This caused Agent Milton to raise an eyebrow. ""You can speak?"" But Sauron didn't care enough to answer Hyperion, and carried on talking. ""Solar power. Yes. It's as plain as the beak on my face."" Sauron's eyes began to glow, and Hyperion's instinct was to look away; he believed the flying extinct beast was trying to hypnotize him. Then Zhib began to falter. He fell out of the air and onto the dirt and mud below. His arms shook as he pushed himself to his feet. ""What's happening to me?"" Zhib-Ran questioned, a feeling of panic briefly rising up in his throat before Milton forced it back down. ""I'm feeding off your energy."" Sauron said simply. Zhib-Ran took one last look at Sauron before turning on his heel and sprinting towards the nearest source of sunlight. He wasn't used to feeling this slow. This weak. Zhib-Ran was Hyperion, champion of the gods! A deity among mortals!<br/><br/>Sauron soared over Milton's head, flying in front of Zhib-Ran to block off his path towards the clearing. Hyperion didn't skip a beat as he charged towards the meta-powered dinosaur. Sauron reared his head back to unleash another torrent of flame. Luckily, Milton was still pretty quick on his feet - he managed to reach Sauron before he blasted him, and slid between his scale-covered legs. A quick glance at the creature's talons told Zhib-Ran that he was still in danger, and needed to get moving. Now. The SHIELD agent tucked and rolled forward, bouncing up to his feet and using his previous momentum to continue sprinting forward. By now, Sauron had turned around and was flying head first towards Hyperion's back. He was more than likely planning to bite Zhib's head off in one go. Milton could feet Sauron's talons sink into his shoulders, and he reached his fingers towards the light in one last, desperate attempt at freeing himself. The tip of Zhib-Ran's middle finger bathed in the light of Earth's star for less than a second. But that was all Hyperion needed to catch Sauron off guard. Hyperion slammed the back of his head into the pterodactyl's snout, causing Sauron to reel backwards and release his prey from his grip.<br/><br/>Hyperion leaped forward into the clearing, letting his body absorb the rays of the sun.<br/><br/>""NO!"" Sauron cried in a fit of rage. The pre-historic beast took to the air once more, blasting a stream of fire into Hyperion's chest in an attempt to kill the powerful alien. Hyperion was sent flying by the strength of the attack, landing with a thump on the other side of the clearing. Zhib-Ran floated off his back and into the air. He tore his burnt shirt off, tossing it into a nearby bush. His tie had already been eviscerated in the previous fighting. Hyperion and Sauron's eyes met once last time, before they both flew head on at the other. Beams of heat and waves of napalm covered the jungle as the two powerhouses poured on the heat. Flames spread over the trees and bushes, consuming any organic material in their path. Hyperion used his physical might to keep Sauron knocked off balance. He used his speed to stay away from the flying reptile's sight, avoiding eye contact as much as possible. Milton wouldn't give the creature a chance to drain him again. The battle was taken back into the darkness of the jungle as Hyperion slammed Sauron around like a pinball machine.<br/><br/>""Enough, you stupid brute!"" Sauron spun around mere moments before Hyperion hit him again, and used his talons to slice Hyperion's face. The Adamantium-like sharpness of the claws was enough to cut Zhib-Ran into ribbons if he wasn't careful. Three long slash marks formed across Hyperion's face, blood leaking out of the wounds. It was then that Hyperion realized he was not yet at full strength. He couldn't have suffered such a grievous wound from any mere mortal at his full power. Hyperion brought a hand up to his face, wiping the blood out of his eyes. ""Cant...See.."" He muttered. Sauron racked his talons across Hyperion's chest thrice more, before firing off another steady wave of burning napalm into Hyperion's face. The enraged alien backhanded Sauron's face with the full force of his strength, sending his enemy flying. Trees snapped and broke as Sauron's body smashed through the jungle. Hyperion gave chase, though his flight speed was staggered due to the blood in his eyes. Zhib-Ran landed, slamming his boot into Sauron's windpipe. He should kill this...thing. It would be easy. Just fire off his lasers into the thing's eyes, and melt its brain. ""P-Please."" Sauron sputtered. ""Don't."" Sauron could tell what Milton was thinking. There was rage in the agent's eyes. ""Take me prisoner. Take me back to SHIELD.""<br/><br/>A smile crossed Hyperion's face. He knew what to do with Sauron. ""I am no mere agent of SHIELD,"" Hyperion began, a look of pure madness growing on his face. ""I am called Zhib-Ran, Hyperion of Tok and displaced king of my crime empire. I plan to conquer this planet, and make myself it's king. Your world is the perfect place to launch my new empire. I will conquer this galaxy, and there is no one who can stop me."" Hyperion took his boot off of Sauron's throat. The doctor began to crawl backwards, desperate to escape the insanity standing before him. Hyperion grabbed the back of Sauron's head and tossed him back into the dirt. ""There will come a time when I call for aid in my conquest. If you answer that call, I will reward you handsomely. Perhaps your own city. Or maybe you want to direct AIM. Whatever you wish, I can fulfill it. But only if you join my regime when the time comes. If you don't, though?"" Hyperion leaned down to Sauron, grabbing his beak. ""I'll tear you in half."" Zhib-Ran let go of the Pterosaur. He turned around and took to the air, looking towards the AIM base. ""Leave. And do not return."" Sauron took to the sky, and didn't look back.<br/><br/>With that done, Hyperion flew off to find Captain America. Perhaps the good captain needed his assistance destroying this facility.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://hdwpics.com/images/298FB4167183/Hulk-Art.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Kestrel sat up in the pilot's seat, a look of worry on his face. The helicarrier was no longer on their radar. The modified Boeing C-17 was much too fast for the helicarrier to catch and the stealth technology on board would mask them from any sort of electronic tracking. However, that wasn't the problem. The problem was a fume leak in one of the engines. The engineers hadn't seen it before they left the compound, and Kestrel hadn't bothered looking over the engines on his own before they took off. Team X had been in a hurry to get to the Hulk before he moved again. He pressed the intercom button, deciding that he should inform Logan of the issue. Fume trails could be tracked, especially if someone was looking for them. And if Kestrel knew anything about SHIELD, he knew that they were thorough. He didn't doubt that they would find the trail with their advanced instruments. The real question was if they would find the trail before it dissipated. If it dissipated before they looked into that particular method of tracking, SHIELD wouldn't be able to follow for very long. ""Hey, Wolverine. Get up here. I need you in the cockpit.""<br/><br/>Meanwhile, in the back of the plane, Wolverine sat next to a sedated Bruce Banner. The doctor had been placed inside a special containment unit, built from some of the strongest materials available. The containment unit was a large metal box attached to the center of the cargo area, with large panes of (very durable) glass in place for observation purposes. Bruce himself had a pair of magnetized cuffs attached to his hands. The cuffs were made in such a way that they could alter their size to fit either form of Banner, and contained traces of Wakandian Vibranium so as to keep the Hulk from escaping using sheer brute force. Whenever Bruce needed to be contained, the cuffs would activate and the powerful magnets within the cuffs would pull the Hulk to the largest piece of metal nearby. The cuffs could even be put in an 'overdrive' mode that would pull the Hulk towards the Earth's core. The cuffs were worth billions of dollars. But money was no object to Romulus and his organization. ""D-Don't do this."" Wolverine immediately stood to his feet, his claws extended. ""He's wakin' up!"" He warned. Maverick pressed a combination into a number pad located on the side of the containment unit, and the IV attached to Bruce's arm flooded him with extra sedative. ""You c-can't c-control the Hulk... It's t-too much p-power..."" Wolverine looked the doctor in the eye, melancholy beneath his mask. ""I know, Bub. I know."" It was then that Kestrel called Wolverine to the cockpit and he turned away from Bruce and made his way to the front of the plane.<br/><br/>""What's goin' on?"" Logan asked. He pulled his mask down, ruffling his own hair. ""We're leaking fumes."" Kestrel responded. ""Anybody on radar?"" Wolverine had a buddy in the air force during Vietnam. He knew a bit about planes. ""No, but that doesn't mean we aren't being followed. If SHIELD picked up the trail less than twenty minutes ago, then they could follow us out of range of radar. Or maybe their craft is using some kind of experimental stealth technology we haven't run into before. Something like ours."" Logan thought about it for a moment. ""How far are we from Weapon X?"" Kestrel double-checked at his instruments before responding. ""We've been in the air for about six hours. 'Bout half way there, if I kick it into high gear."" Logan did a double take at that. ""Planes aren't that fast."" Kestrel smiled at that. ""Most planes. But we modified this baby ourselves with the best stuff available. No government in the world could compete; well, 'cept the U.S. But the Blackbird don't count. Cruise speed is Mach 2.5, but if we wanted we could go up to 4.0. Cruise altitude goes up to 45,000 feet without activating our anti-gravity engines-"" Logan interrupted Kestrel. ""Wait, we have anti-gravity engines?"" Kestrel nodded. ""Yup. We also have an energy shield that protects the plane from the increased drag of flying at above the speed of sound, and our own source of oxygen to burn when we fly above 80,000 feet. There are two photon lasers mounted to the bottom of the plane, and we have 21 plasma missiles in case we really need to bring on the heat. We have enough fuel to fly around the world three times without needing to stop, and the most state of the art stealth technology in the possession of humans."" Wolverine blinked a few times before he could respond. ""Don't sound like much of a plane 'ta me. Sounds more like a UFO."" Kestrel shrugged. ""That's because we got the tech from aliens. I've been trying to get Doctor Cornelius to modify my baby's appearance, but he won't budge. The C-17 look is less suspicious than a design of our own.""<br/><br/>""What do you call her?""<br/><br/>""Azrael. The Angel of Death.""<br/><br/>""Heh."" Wolverine chuckled. ""What?"" Kestrel asked, a bit insulted. ""Oh, nothin' 'bout your baby. She's a fine craft. Just reminded me o' that clown I killed back at Ypres. Called himself the Angel of Death too; carried some blade called the Muramasa. Stung like a bitch when he stabbed me with it."" Logan reminisced, involuntarily moving his hand down to his chest. ""Took months to heal those cuts.""<br/><br/>""Weird."" Kestrel responded. Something was off about him. Wolverine could hear his heart rate climbing. Why was he nervous? John was never nervous around Logan. ""You okay, bub?"" Wolverine asked. John Wraith only nodded. ""But yeah. I'm worried SHIELD might be following us."" It was Wolverine's turn to nod. ""Kick us into high gear. Use them fancy Anti-gravity engines o' yours. When we get back, we'll put the guards on high alert.""</div>"

His brother, Donald, was going over some documents and going on about something to do with keeping the Skrulls contained better. He finally got the littlest bit annoyed and asked…<br/><br/>“What’s wrong little brother?” Donald asked calmly putting his papers down on a coffee table. <br/><br/>“That ungrateful Willaims guy.

It wasn’t anything specially designed by that Tony Stark kid, or that super genius Reed Richards, but it did the trick. Maybe one day he’d try an get in good with one of those two, maybe to get a new suit or a piece of tech developed for some of the battles where weapons are needed more than wings. Sure he could fly, and was an Olympic level athlete. Only 2.8% body fat and that included the extra ninety or so pounds worth of wings muscle popping out of his back. Ready to fly, he opened a large window/skylight above his office that in itself had at least a thirteen foot high ceiling.

The Russian dog from Earth who could telepathically communicate with any sentient being, including the ship's Machine Man, floated out of the loading dock in his older model Russian space suit with a little tech in case the air of the demolished planet was too toxic to breath.  <br/><br/>“Cosmo? How are you-” She shook her head, this was weird. A strange looking ship, someone dressed up in fur AND Cosmo? Just HOURS after this happened? “You can’t be Cosmo. We never got the authorization to get you out of the Collector's hands! I should know <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> was the one working that case trying to get him released?!” She moved forward, landing on the ship standing to her full (Yet diminutive, compared to Trolls) height.<br/><br/>“You also come to help? What is there to help?” She sounded understandably pissed off, yet tears still began to stream down her cheeks. Her voice cracking and breaking slightly. “Look around you! Xandar is in ash, everyone but me is gone. Breath in the air, it’s burning. It’s toxic. Whoever you are, the only way you can help is to end my life and finish the job the Kree started or to tell me who did this.”<br/><br/>Her hands glowed with the blue aura of the nova energy. “Because I will find him and make sure he pays for what he’s done here. He’ll pay for every life he took.” She gave Cosmo a menacing look. “Because I’m not Mexxa anymore. I’m the only one that’s left-” Her entire body began to glow with blue energy. “-I am Nova.”<br/><br/>Cosmo’s eyes widened inside his domed helmet as he watched the armoured woman in front of him erupt in what appeared to be a mass of blue energy. Honestly he hadn’t expected this initially, although thinking, he began to understand what was going through Mexxa’s head, or Nova as she now seemed to be calling herself. Her entire planet had been removed of all its life. All her loved ones were gone. She was sadly right about being the only one that’s left.<br/><br/>Cosmo wasn’t the only one who didn’t like the sight of the blue energy that surrounded the Nova. Troll wriggled in both rage and intrigue as she continued to float back towards the Shockwave Rider under Cosmo’s telekinetic control, with the young fur wearing Asgardian waving her axe Jarnbjorn madly in the air once more.<br/><br/>""The ship and Cosmo have somewhat of a lock on the course of destruction. We've been following it's trail now through a few space sectors..."" X-51 mentioned flying out of the cockpit now looking at the Nova first hand rather than through a glass window. <br/><br/>Cosmo shook his head slightly at the sight of Troll, disappointingly, before turning back towards Nova. It would seem that her axe waving was going to become a regular occurrence. Gunna’s house training would have to wait however, as for now the furry Guardian needed to defuse the Nova shaped bomb in front of him.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Mexxa.. Nova I meanink. It’s really me. Knowhere was attacked. Cosmo was freed. It was the Kree. I read one of them and they told me that they were comink here…</span><br/><br/>Mexxa moved, landing on the top of the ship. The aura fading, her head lowered. ""I'm sorry Cosmo. I should have realized you'd be the only one to talk telepathically in that stupid terran accent."" She smirked slightly, though she didn't look up. She kept her head lowered. ""If you have truly been on the trail of the Kree who did this you can help me find him."" She looked up, dedication and revenge in her eyes.<br/><br/>""Tell me what you know, you need not go further. This is my fi- my duty. I am sorry to hear about Knowhere and would help if I was able but whoever did this to my world-"" She raised her arms indicating the planet. ""And all Xandars colonies cannot be allowed to remain in control of this power. So please, tell me what you know.""<br/><br/>Cosmo smiled as the powerful looking energy that had be festering around the Nova in front of him began to dim and fade. He was happy to see that his friend recognised him, evident by the fact that his tail was now wagging. All seemed to be fine, however there was one part of her comment that bugged him slightly. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Da, I will be tellink you everythink i know in good time friend. But you must know, that we are coming with you. Cosmo say no arguink!</span><br/><br/>It was during Cosmo's short telepathic speech that Troll finally found herself landing gently back onto the platform. Giving a brief second to adjust to being back onto her feet, she gazed up through her furs towards Cosmo and the flying woman. She seemed powerful. Scary even. She didn't scare Troll. Nothing scares Troll. However now wasn't the time to be lopping off limbs. Gunna moved forward as Cosmo ""spoke"", listening intently to the conversation. Her fluffy friend was right. They were going to help!<br/><br/>Proudly, she stepped forward, standing by Cosmo's side. With her free hand, the Asgardian warrior firmly patted her chest before stating loudly; ""Guardians.""<br/><br/>Cosmo tail wagged once more at the word. It was good to see that young Gunna was on the same page; the girl had come so far since he had met her all those weeks ago within the Collector's Museum. So much had changed in that time, and fortunately Gunna was changing for the better. Cosmo could only hope that Mexxa would let them assist so that he could further that change. Yes, that would be nice. <br/><br/>Cosmo walked up towards Cosmo and the, fur covered woman. Seriously, what was with that? She was wearing some kind of weird fur, it was like it had literally been skinned off a living animal.  Not that she wanted to think extensively into what had happened. ""I fear that <span class=""bb-i"">good</span> time may not be good enough Cosmo. This power is great indeed and if whoever has it continues to do so... most of the galaxy is in jeapordy. While I do blame the Kree for it was a Kree ship that assaulted Xandar even their empire is at threat.""<br/><br/>She sighed, thinking over what she was about to say carefully. This was big, bigger than anything she had worked on before. Bigger than anything any single Nova had worked on. Though she looked at the band of misfits and saw somehting that sparked a glimmer of hope. Yes they were misfits, but the Nova Corps had been the same merely with a uniform. Maybe this was her path.<br/><br/>""Though I can't say I feel happy about you guys risking your lives over this, if you know the stakes and are willing to come along I won't stop you. Though it won't be easy, so feel free to get off this joy ride wherever you want.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Da, no need to be worryink Nova. We goink to get you justice for everythink the Kree do here and to Knowhere.</span><br/><br/>As if in agreement, Troll spoke up once more repeating the word that she had stated earlier. <br/><br/>""We the Guardians!""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Indeed my friend. Now let us be gettink to work.</span><br/><br/></div>"

Johnny carried his sister in and put her down on the bed Reed was laying on to rest. She held her head in pain, moaning. “Reed? Is Reed here, is he okay?” She kept asking for him but couldn't see anyone. <br/><br/>“Hey guys, I'm not sure what's wrong with her. Any word on Harvey yet?” Johnny asks Ben if he'd heard anything. “Shhh its okay Sue I'm right here...” Reed's face paled seeing Susan's eyes wrapped in what he realized was Johnny's t-shirt. He cuddled up close to her putting a hand onto her cheek for comfort. At this point Johnny normally would say or do something about someone getting close to his sister. But it was a panicked situation, plus clearly Susan wanted Reed there. Hell, Johnny only had himself to blame since this WAS the point of operation whatever he called it.<br/><br/>“Your dad's said he'll be in tomorrow so we're just going to try and rest up. We still don't know where Harvey is though.” Ben noted also watching Reed comforting Susan in bed. Silently trying to figure out how Johnny is taking the sight he's spent so long fighting in Reed getting with his sister. <br/><br/>Susan smiled. “Thanks, Reed. I'm glad you're okay too.” She held her head in pain. “I really need to sleep this off.” She says as she settles down into her bed and gets comfy. “Let's find Harvey tomorrow when we're on full form.” Johnny noted as he had to strip to his underwear he was that hot. He slept on top of the covers that night. <br/><br/>---<br/><br/>The next morning, Susan awoke to a bright and sunny day. She takes off her blind fold and she could look at the light without any pain or discomfort. Johnny was still snoring away. Sue noticed Reed had slept by her bedside all night. She wanted to give him a kiss awake when the doorbell rang and stopped her. She gruffed and went to the door. <br/><br/>Dr Storm barged in. “Sue, Johnny, I'm glad you're both okay.” He hugged his daughter and dragged his son from the bed. “Reed, Ben.

He's in the hospital, stable but fine.” Sue sighed with relief. “Thank God.”<br/><br/>Johnny yawns in his underwear. “Yeah right on, the Harvemeister is back on the scene.” <br/><br/>“Here's some money.” He handed out some new debit cards. “I suggest you get cleaned up and wait for Harvey to wake up.” </div>"

""Wilson, Wilson are you there."" He had to make note to tell Fury not to shout into a microphone, and make sure Fury had something better to do than watch his every move. ""Yes sir.

SHIELD-tech Quinjets were already approaching the site; it would seem the good captain had dismantled AIM's operations on his own while Agent Milton was busy dealing with that 'Sauron' fellow. ""Milton."" Wilson signaled towards Hyperion to get the alien's attention. ""Captain."" Hyperion greeted the SHIELD agent. ""You alright? That was a hell of a hit you took. I mean if it could cut you it probably would have ripped me in half."" Zhib-Ran nodded to Sam before responding verbally. ""I am fine. He caught me by surprise; that was all."" He gave a reassuring smirk to the human before continuing. ""Sauron may have escaped, but based on the beating I gave him I'd wager that he won't be causing us trouble again any time soon."" Captain America pulled a med-kit from his belt and set to work wiping the blood from Milton's face and cleaning the wound. While the soldier played doctor, Hyperion decided to carry on with what passed for small-talk among SHIELD agents. ""It would seem you were successful in defeating AIM's forces. Congratulations. Success appears to be a common occurrence when you're on duty. It is as they say: When Captain America throws his mighty shield..."" Zhib-Ran chuckled, remembering the old cartoons. He'd read up on Steve Rogers when he initially joined SHIELD; the previous Captain America was every bit the man Sam Wilson was. Or seemed to be. Converting him to Milton's cause would be difficult, but Hyperion had faith that the captain would see the merits in Zhib-Ran's new empire and would join him in his conquest.<br/><br/>When Sam finished patching up the alien god's wounds, Hyperion set about demolishing the AIM facility alongside the other SHIELD agents. He used his X-ray vision to locate the various load-bearing walls and pillars before knocking them down with his super strength. Zhib-Ran turned computer servers, file cabinets and shelves of research into slag and ash with his flash vision. The entire building went down in a matter of minutes thanks to the combined efforts of the demolitions team and Hyperion. ""Good work."" Milton commented to a pair of young and impressionable agents who had been apart of the demolitions squad. ""I know it may seem as if your job is unimportant, but rest assured that your contribution to SHIELD is just as critical as my own. Without people like you doing work like this, Advanced Idea Mechanics would just return and this operation would have been a waste of precious time and resources. Thank you."" The two men shook hands, a giddy look on their faces as Milton walked away. It wasn't every day you met a real life superhero.<br/><br/>Hyperion met with the captain once more. ""Where to next, Captain?"" He asked simply before looking down at his tattered clothes. ""Perhaps a change of attire is in order."" He commented with a smile.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51I56KhYV5L._SX327_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Snow battered against the side of the Azrael as she descended upon the landing pad. Bright red lights guided Kestrel and his crew to safety as the massive plane slammed down onto the tarmac unceremoniously. While a normal C-17 required a landing strip, the anti-gravity technology mounted to the Azrael allowed her the same kind of maneuverability associated with a hummingbird. The cargo hold's ramp located at the back of the plane slowly opened and lowered itself to the ground. Team X gathered around Bruce Banner's cage, pushing the holding cell down the ramp and onto the frost-covered surface of the landing pad. ""Pick 'em up, Mastodon."" Wolverine grunted as he stepped out into the cold Canadian air. The elephant man did as he was told, taking the huge metal box into both arms and lifting it up before carrying it out of the C-17. ""Brace yourselves,"" Deadpool began. ""Winter is coming."" X-23 smacked Wade in the back of his crimson-covered head before continuing past him and out of the plane herself. ""Winter is already here, moron."" She corrected. ""Don't you watch Game of Thrones?"" Deadpool asked with a gasp. ""Everyone watches Game of Thrones!"" Lady Deathstrike followed Laura out of the plan, adding to the conversation as well. ""I watch Game of Thrones. Did you see what they did to J-"" She started before being cut off. ""Cease your spoilage, woman!"" Mastodon yelled out in despair. ""I'm not caught up yet.""<br/><br/>""You're always a season behind."" Kestrel appeared in a wisp of air. The doors to the base opened up as Wolverine entered his passcode and led the rest of Team X inside the building. ""Mastodon, Maverick. You two take the green giant over to Professor Thorton's lab and make sure he stays sedated."" James ordered. ""The rest of you are free to do as you please until the next mission comes up."" So the team splintered off to go do what they wanted: Deadpool went off to make himself a batch of chimichangas before sitting down to watch Pulp Fiction. Lady Deathstrike found Carol Hines and had her arms repaired and refitted. Kestrel, Wolverine and X-23 decided to head to the lounge and play a couple of rounds of pool. All was as it normally was there at the Weapon X Facility. Some may be surprised to hear that a clandestine organization of mutant assassins are still, in fact, human. That they could lead some semblance of a normal life. Behind the fur and the claws mutants were still people. People with dreams, aspirations and hopes. People who loved, partied and laughed. People who feared, cried and hated.<br/><br/>They were people, just going about their lives in an effort to survive.<br/><br/>Professor Thorton had Maverick remove Bruce Banner's unconscious body from the holding device and place him on a medical table in the center of the room. Maverick and Mastodon left the lab, standing outside in the hall and watching Banner in order to keep him contained. Professor Thorton stood in an observation room above the laboratory itself. He manipulated a dozen robotic arms located around the table and set up for the preliminary scans of Bruce Banner's internal mechanisms. Blood pressure, body heat, fat percentage, ect. This was the easy part; only a couple of pokes and prods from those same Adamantium needles that had been used to inject Hulk with the sedatives earlier. Later they would get into the nasty stuff, like opening up Banner's insides and looking at his organs. Finding out just what makes him turn into the Hulk and testing various chemicals on him in to see how the creature reacts. Sooner or later Thorton would need to take a deep tissue and bone marrow samples; but for now, he'd need to rely on a few vials of the Hulk's blood instead. He theorized that such painful and instrusize operations like a marrow sample would cause Bruce's fight or flight system to kick in. And when that kicked in, so did the Hulk; no amount of sedatives would stop him then. That's what Maverick and Mastodon were for.</div>"

All of their hostages had been rescued, Pyro was out for the count, and Lorelei’s powers have been rendered practically useless only because of the common household item called the earplugs.  However, they were lucky that the X-Men nor Ms. Marvel had picked up on the Blob’s slip of the tongue about how many Brotherhood members there were present at that time.<br/><br/>	“Vanisher!  Start the emergency evacuation now!  Mastermind, Unus, help us distract these X-Men while we make our escape!”<br/><br/>	Suddenly, the Mastermind’s illusion dropped, revealing that these three individuals had been present during the entire battle.  Vanisher immediately disappeared into thin air, beginning their escape by grabbing Pyro and pulling him out from the nearby pond that Ms. Marvel had dropped Pyro in.  Meanwhile, Mastermind unleashed his illusionary powers upon Storm, seeing in her mind her greatest fears.<br/><br/>	“You are in a tight, tiny room, Storm.  And the walls are collapsing upon themselves and the ceiling is beginning to slide down towards the floor.  You cannot breathe, Strom, cannot move.  You are trapped!”  After Mastermind produced this illusion, which would take advantage of Storm’s claustrophobia, Storm began to have a panic attack.  Not only did this cause Storm to fall from the sky, but, once she had crashed down to earth, it also caused her to produce lightning strikes that would haphazardly descend from the sky and smash down onto the ground.<br/><br/>	“Mastermind, I told you to help distract them, not fry us!”  Lorelei screamed at the trench coat wearing mutant.<br/><br/>	“How was I supposed to know that was going to happen?”  Mastermind countered.  While the two evil mutants argued momentarily, Ms. Marvel had returned from drenching Pyro.  She darted down from the sky toward the two arguing mutants, who were at the moment distracted by their quarrel, holding out clenched fists in front of her.  However, fortunately for Mastermind and Lorelei, they were covered by Unus the Untouchable.<br/><br/>	“Interesting.  It seems that there are two different minds occupying that woman’s single body.  Since I’m <span class=""bb-i"">sure</span> that this would count as a variation to the ‘two heads are better than one’ proverb, it might be beneficial to change that.”<br/><br/>	Using his mental gifts, Unus merged together the two conflicting minds that were occupying Ms. Marvel’s body, intentionally bringing out the mind that had been dormant under the mind that had been in control a few moments ago.  While Ms. Marvel’s psyche was trying to recover from this, she momentarily lost focus and as a result nose-dived into the ground below her.  Once Carol had regained her consciousness, she stared around what seemed like a warzone to her, bewildered at what she saw.  The last thing she could remember was working on her homework in the living room.  How did she go from there to here?<br/><br/>	Nearby, the Blob struggled with the Beast.  However, the supersized mutant grabbed hold of the blue, furry man and tossed him towards Jean Grey, despite the fact that the telepath could safely stop the Beast from colliding with her.  Once he had rid himself of the hairy X-Man, the Blob saw that Ms. Marvel was only steps away from him.<br/><br/>	“Well, look who it is!  It doesn’t seem like you got your share of dirt.  Maybe you should take another mouthful, Milk Duds!”  The Blob took a handful of Carol’s hair and slammed her face into the ground.  Despite how hard she hit the ground, Carol was amazed that she had somehow survived that impact with the ground.  Even as her body ached, she tried to pull herself off the ground.  Peering up at her assailant, Carol waited a second or two before she threw a punch straight into his gut.  However, she was not anticipating that it would be that literal.<br/><br/>	“What that?”  Carol muttered under her breath when she saw that her arm sunk into the body fat that composed the Blob’s belly.  “That’s so disgusting!”<br/><br/>	“Was that supposed to hurt?  That actually tickled a little bit!”  The Blob laughed as Ms. Marvel struggled to pull her arm out of his stomach.  “Let me help you with that, Ms. Sparkle-fists!”  The Blob therefore swung his belly to the side, tossing Carol off her feet and then reversed direction, flinging Ms. Marvel into the air.  Once she was airborne, Carol’s momentum sent her soaring in the opposite direction and caused her to slam directly into a nearby tree, splintering the arboreal plant on impact.<br/></div>"

So many had died, she did not want to be responsible for the death of this group of misfits. Though she couldn't help but feel naught but respect for Cosmo. He finally had his freedom, after who knew how many years and he was deciding to spend it saving people.<br/><br/>She smiled a sad smile as she entered the strange vessel, had she known this at another time perhaps he himself could have become a member of the Nova Corps and would no doubt have been great at it. Though that time had passed. She looked around the inside of the ship as she entered, the window sealed where the trollish woman had jumped out. ""So, what've you got?""<br/><br/>""Do you mind informink her, Mister Machine Man?"" Cosmo asked, as he climbed back into his seat, before frowning slightly at the sight of the sealed hatch that had once been the front window. Turning, he gave a disaproving look at Troll, who had also just slumped into the room, dragging her axe, Jarnbjorn, behind her. In return, the Asgardian girl shrugged her shoulders, before falling down onto her back, not even flinching when her body hit the metal floor of the ship. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://dynamiccomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/banner-64.png""/></div><br/><br/>Wilson waved his hand and a quinjet headed towards them, yes technically they both could fly but sometimes it was nice just to take a ride. He wasn't sure if the alien felt the same way but... he was in charge. Somehow. ""Next, Fury had an idea and I'm actually going to hand it to our fearless Director it wasn't half bad."" He led the way into the back of the jet, putting his shield down on one of the seats as he gave the pilot a pat on the shoulder indicating that he was ready to go. He took a seat in the main cabin, pulling his helmet back off his head, it hung loosely on the fabric that joined the unit to his head. He would have preferred if it wasn't connected to the rest of the uniform. Sadly there were certain <span class=""bb-i"">design elements</span> that went into being Captain America, apparently.<br/><br/>""We're going to put together a team. You saw what happened today, and the bad guys are starting to punch harder. I mean there's that Hulk thing and they're saying he's the strongest there is, no offense Milton."" He shrugged. He pulled a screen round confront of it and loaded people up, pulling up a dossier and image as he did so. ""Henry Pym Jr, alias: Ant-Man. Can change his size, control ants. Bit of a science geek, his dad did some spy work back in the day. Fury wants him as a consultant <span class=""bb-i"">only</span>."" He pushed the file to the side, bringing another one up. ""You'll have seen this one on the news: Agent Victoria Parrington, Valkyrie. She's one of our own."" <br/><br/>He pushed the file to the side. ""Agent Clint Barton, Hawkeye. Another one of ours but Fury has other plans for him, he really just wants to see if he can cope in our environment. I'm not entirely sure if he'll be game for it but we can but ask."" He pushed that file to the side again bringing up another, smaller file. ""Miss America. We took her into custody with another, she's not from around here. From an alternate unvierse much like yourself. She may be young, but she's got power and experience. I'll have her for as long as she's planning on sticking around on this Earth. The other she came in with, Thor she calls herself is currently on the watch list. She's been... roughing the place up a bit."" He pulled another dossier up, it was really just a name and a blurry image. <br/><br/>""Loki however, while she claims he is a villain seems to have been doing some good. I'd be interested in seeing what he's all about. Mark him down as a possible."" He groaned as he brought the final report up. ""This one, is one Fury won't let me back out off I'm afraid."" He brought up the image. ""Tony Stark, A.K.A Iron Man, A.K.A the most arrogant bratish kid in the history of arrogant bratish kids. I want him only as a consultant, I don't care what his suit can do he's not set for this line of work. I'd sooner take a man the size of an insect into a fight rather than him.""<br/><br/>He leaned back, stretching his legs. It was nice to just relax for a bit. ""Now I remember you said something about having your own team before, and this certainly isn't that team. Though you think we can cut it?""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbj9h991FA1rg3g1lo4_1280.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>""HULK!"" There was nothing but void, he could faintly feel himself being moved and worked on. This wasn't going to go well, for anybody. If they got their hands on whatever in his blood created the Hulk... or even managed to somehow take the Hulk from him and put him into one of the mutants... he shuddered to think what they could and no doubt would do. There'd be destruction, chaos and death. This was exactly the opposite of what he wanted in his life. Gamma energy was the path to free sustainable energy, it was the way to go. Though naturally the only way into the field was military contracts, what was the harm in making a bomb that would only ever be used as a threat anyway?<br/><br/>Of course he had become the bomb, he had become the threat. ""Hulk! I need to speak to you."" Green punctured the void, in an attempt to punch him. He stretched out his hand in a gesture to stop, the gargantuan fist stopping just before it made contact. ""Hulk, we can't keep doing this."" He could see the Hulk thinking about it, weighing his options. Or maybe he hadn't fully understood the question, while the Hulk was strong he wasn't exactly smart. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hulk don't know what Puny Banner speaking about.""</span> Banner just sighed and lowered his hand, and head. ""You can feel what they're doing can't you?""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Yes.""</span><br/><br/>""We can stop this Hulk, we need to stop this."" Hulk just turned away from him, with what really sounded like a sigh. If a sigh could sound threatening and like it could knock the wind out of you anyway. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hulk don't care.""</span> Banner just shook his head, that wasn't entirely true. He remembered flashes of what the Hulk did, and the media helped. ""You do care, you don't like people being hurt. You don't like being seen as a monster."" Hulk turned and growled at that, moving towards Banner at a fast walk, every twitch of muscle threatening. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Hulk not monster. Banner monster.""</span> Well, there was truth in that. Hulk was just the creation of his environment, what kind of environment did he live in? One where everyone feared him, saw him a monster. Tried to hunt him, to kill him. Just as Banner had been trying to do since the day the accident changed him. Perhaps Hulk was right, perhaps he was the monster. He was the one who tried to make the gamma bomb anyway. ""Hulk, we need to get out of here. Though we can't do it alone."" Hulk just snorted at that, the closest the goliath had ever gotten to laughter. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hulk strongest one there is!""</span> Banner just smiled at that.<br/><br/>""Yes, yes he is. Though you forget one very important thing Hulk. Something that can help us get out of here."" Hulk just looked at him, puzzlement clear on his face as he was trying to work it out. ""Hulks strongest one there is, Banners one of the smartest people there is."" Banner pointed between them. ""Together, we can escape.""<br/><br/>To his surprise, Hulk nodded.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Together.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""But then Banner let Hulk free.""</span></div>"

Bishop Packaging. The place sure looked fancy. Much fancier than America would have expected it to be considering it was a packaging and delivery company, although she shouldn’t really complain. Actually yes she should. If things got difficult here, there would a hell of a lot of collateral damage. America had expected to be throwing out punches in some old run down delivery depot, not a civilian filled office. She sighed slightly, rubbing her temple. Steadying herself, she recovered herself, standing tall once more.<br/><br/>“Let’s do this.”<br/><br/>“And how exactly are we going to do this, Lil’ Miss Patriot?”<br/><br/>America groaned. As helpful as Quentin Quire was, his sarcastic comments were getting annoying. Sarcasm was normally her thing. <br/><br/>“Well it’s your lucky day, Quentin.” She replied coolly, heading towards the revolving door at the foot of the building. “You’re going to be putting those mutant powers to good use!”<br/><br/>“Sweetness.”<br/><br/>A cool burst of air conditioning shot into the two hero’s faces as they calmly entered the foyer. This place literally smelled of money. Looking around at the fancy furniture and technology around the room, America knew for sure that something wasn’t right about this place. No way could a petty delivery company be kitted out like this. Judging by the judgmental look on Quentin’s face, he was thinking the same. After giving each other a short nod, they continued onwards towards the central elevator that stood towards the back of the lobby. <br/><br/>Their journey was soon blocked however by the appearance of two incredibly butch security guards, who place themselves in their way. <br/><br/>Not fazed by their sudden interference, Quentin scoffed quickly before continuing walking. “Move aside gentlemen, Mr Bishop is expecting us.” His hand rose to his head as he spoke, evident that the young teenage was using his telepathic abilities on the two.<br/><br/>They however didn’t seemed to be affected by Quentin’s “persuasion”. The guards didn’t move, which obviously came as a great surprise to Quentin, who kept walking, knocking into them. Stumbling backwards, Quire swore loudly in a bewildered fashion. <br/><br/>“I said stand back!” Quentin said, angrily now, as his fingers shot up to rest on the sides of his head. <br/><br/>The first guard laughed slightly before giving a sly smile to his partner. <br/><br/>“Those jedi mind trick won’t work on us, y’ twerp!” The second guard’s New Jersey accent caused America to fill her head with countless more questions. Psychic defences? Who has psychic defences? Other than her that it. What on earth was going on here? America Chavez furrowed her brow. Questions would have to wait. It was time for plan B.<br/><br/>Charging forward, America flung her fist out in front of her, punching the first guard in the jaw. The blow was strong enough to cause him to reel back in pain, giving the teenager the time to catch the arms of the second guard, whom had tried to grab her. Twisting him around, America pulled him down before kneeing him sharply in the stomach.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, these weren’t the only two guards in the room. Obviously, the commotion caught the attention of everyone else in the foyer. Receptions and simple office interns screamed and ran for cover, while numerous additional security guards readied themselves, approaching the brawl.  <br/><br/>Spotting a number of the guards reaching for their weapons, America knew that they were in trouble. Grabbing hold of the first guard, who was currently stumbling about in pain, America span slightly before throwing the man across the room, right into the nearest approaching security guard. America herself followed, taking to the air, with the young hero propelling herself towards her attackers. Slamming one of the men to the ground, she whipped her arm up, knocking a bullet fired at her away with her unbreakable skin. This was easy.<br/><br/>Remembering Quire, she gave the telepath a quick wave from across the room.<br/><br/>“Get in the elevator!” She called, punching yet another oncoming security guard down to the floor. “I’ll meet you up there!”<br/><br/>“Ye..yes miss!” Quentin stammered, before sprinting off towards the elevator.<br/></div>"

SHIELD had many instruments, gadgets and science officers capable of deciphering any form of concealed signal. <br/><br/>Valkyrie was at the ready to pounce on any who dared attack, her wings full sprout at the back of her. Her sword Dragonfang held horizontally in front of her. Her heater shield held upright to block anything from the front or side. <br/><br/>The Asgardian warrior had come to help rescue The Hulk or at least, carve a way out for him. She used her increased agility to quickly scan the room. She had no desire to kill anyone in her way. She had her mission and she would stick to it. <br/><br/>“Doctor Banner!” She yells out, watching all of the Team X's members carefully. She hoped Banner was at least conscious. If he was, then all the better to help fight their way past these mutant nabbing cowards. </div>"

""Ha!"" Wolverine gloated. ""I'm on a roll."" Logan lined up a third hit, aiming for a grouping of solid and stripped balls. Kestrel coughed as Logan shot his stick forward. The abruptness of the sound caused the mutant's usually steady hands to slip. Laura watched with a smile on her face as the white ball rolled harmlessly into the corner hole without touching any of Wolverine's strips. Wolverine growled in Kestrel's direction; John merely pretended not to know what Logan was on about and went back to his cigar. ""Stinkin' cowboy."" He muttered as X-23 bent down to examine the status of the table. ""How long do ya think we'll be keeping big green down stairs?"" John Wraith asked his two partners. Wolverine shrugged as he crossed over to the bar and picked up a bottle before tipping his head backwards and gulping down the contents of the beer. ""Just long enough to collect samples for Ross. Then we're slitting his throat and moving on with our lives."" The girl fired off a shot. The white ball flew across the table and smacked a pair of solid pool balls into a nearby hole. ""The guy's not a mutant. He shouldn't be our problem."" Wolverine complained. ""With the money the general's paying us we'll be able to expand our sphere of influence and bring on more staff."" X-23 reminded her sort-of father. She was closer to a clone than a relative, but thinking of herself as nothing more than a part of Logan was unproductive. ""Not to mention the gear he promised us. Finally gonna get to upgrade Azrael with some real armor."" Kestrel pondered what type of plating he should ask Thunderbolt for as X-23 missed her follow up shot. Wolverine crossed over to the pool table and set his beer down, taking the stick from his clone as he did.<br/><br/>Then the ceiling exploded.<br/><br/>Kestrel reacted first. He teleported out of the room to avoid being crushed by flying debris and get the rest of Team X. X-23 ducked behind the pool table moments before a chunk of concrete flew past her head. Wolverine smacked away a lead pipe that fell from the air as an angelic figure descended from the newly-created hole and landed on a pile of rubble in front of them. “Knock knock!” The Valkyrie grins with narrowed eyes. ""You're not the pizza delivery guy."" Deadpool quipped sadly as he came running into the room, sword and pistol drawn. ""John said there was a party going down in this hizz-house- Oooooooo. Pretty lady. Can I keep her?"" X-23 and Wolverine popped their claws. X-23 jumped over the pool table and gracefully landed on the other side as she charged the Valkyrie and attempted to cut her sword arm off. Wolverine saw his partner going in and followed her lead, running around to the other side of the invader and slicing at her shield. Probably not the most effective means of attack but it kept the woman on her toes and tested the durability of her equipment. If it were anything less than godlike gear, Wolverine's Adamantium claws wouldn't have trouble piercing it. ""Bangbangbangbang! I wanna chitty-chitty-bang-bang you!"" Deadpool yelled as he unloaded on Valkyrie with his pistol and went in to close combat with his sword. ""Will you shut up Wilson?!"" X-23 grumbled in frustration as she and the sword-wielding woman crossed blades. ""Attack pattern Omega!"" Logan ordered harshly. ""Take this bitch down before she kills anyone!"" Logan had read Valkyries file. She was strong, fast and knew how to fight. If they let up for even a second she'd blitz them all down and free the Hulk. He wasn't gonna let that happen; not if he was still standing. Wolverine and X-23 went with a figure-eight pattern of attack, always keeping the angel guessing who she'd be fighting. They'd dip in, slash at her and dip out; at which point the next person would come in and they'd rinse and repeat. Sometimes one of them would leave the pattern and slice at her back before moving into position again.<br/><br/>Kestrel appeared in the doorway with a squad of two dozen armed soldiers wearing all black armor and no government markings on their uniforms. The guards took up positions around the lounge and started to open fire; they didn't seem to care if they hit their fellow mutants. All three of them pretty much ignored the hail of bullets, healing past any wounds caused by poor aim. John himself removed a sawed-off shotgun from a sheathe on his leg and opened fire on the angel as she called out for Banner's help.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, downstairs, Maverick and Mastodon shifted uncomfortably. They could hear the fighting going on upstairs. The Hulk was still sedated, but he seemed to be stirring. Perhaps Banner was dreaming? Whatever the case, Professor Thorton decided to speed up his sample collection. He feared that whoever was attacking would wake the Hulk and he would escape before the Weapon X team managed to obtain any vital information on his genetic makeup.</div>"

Bestowed by the Gods, it easily countered the Adamantium claws. Her shield however, got sliced in half by Wolverine. But no matter, she conjured up her spear in her shield hand. She used her heightened agility to spin both her sword and spear in a spiral to deflect Deadpool's bullet array. “No-one's banging me today.” Valkyrie growled at the red and black masked <br/><br/>With each slash of the claws by Wolverine and X-23's figure of eight attack pattern, some she blocked except for her back . Which was slashed with each slice, drawing blood. But luckily for her, she had healing powers. Each scratch she gained instantly regenerated over. And luckily for them, she did not cross her Dragonfang blade with her blood or else they would have definitely lived to regret that mistake.<br/><br/>As the legion of two dozen armed soldiers entered the fray, Valkyrie leaps upward into the air. She dive bombs them all, knocking the ones in the centre down with her own body, her full wing span knocking down the rest. And finally lands on John's chest with one foot at his neck. She could have easily stabbed him through. But she refrained. She abhorred taking a life without meaning. She had to get in and get out, fast. <br/><br/>Instead she heard a crash from downstairs and bolts straight down the hallway where Kestrel had come from. Hoping it would lead her straight to Banner. “Bruce! Where are you?!” She yells across the building. </div>"

Deadpool asked as his bullets were deflected back at him by Valkyrie's spear. He cried out in surprise as his own rounds pierced his skin before he regenerated and continued to fire, knowing full-well that she'd just smack them right back at him. ""Maybe if I keep doing the same thing over and over, I'll finally hit her. DEADPOOL, MASTER OF LOGIC!"" The psychopath laughed and reloaded his pistol before firing off the entire magazine again. Wolverine and X-23 continued to push the attack until Valkyrie seemed to grow bored of prolonged combat and decided to advance. Logan watched as she leaped over head and used her massive wingspan to create a vortex of wind that knocked back the security team and momentarily stopped their onslaught of fire. ""Holy shi-"" Kestrel screamed before Valkyrie interrupted his cry with a kick to the throat. The sheer force of the movement sent the teleporter flying into the hallway, his shotgun clattering against the floor nearby. ""She's gotta healing factor!"" Wolverine informed the rest of the room. ""Somebody get Maverick up 'ere!"" The mutants watched on as Valkyrie went running through the halls, yelling out Bruce's name. Kestrel vanished in a bright flash of navy blue light before appearing down stairs next to the startled Maverick and Mastodon. ""We have incoming. She's strong, fast and has a killer healing factor. As long as the big guy doesn't show up you two should be able to-"" Mastodon took in a gulp of air, causing John to stop talking and turn around.<br/><br/>Banner was changing.<br/><br/>His body was shifting and growing. Contorting and bulging as muscles sizes changed and became unnaturally large. Banner's skin turned a sickly green moments before he tore apart the binds holding himself in place. Bruce Banner was now gone; there was only the Hulk. The Hulk roared as he rose to his feet from the table and smashed the nearby samples taken from his blood stream. ""I-Is he...smiling?"" Maverick whispered. Mastodon ground his teeth together as the Hulk bade him charge by releasing a mighty roar of dominance. A taunt. A childish challenge. Something that Mastodon, the intellectual that he was, should have refused. He should have waited for backup.<br/><br/>But he didn't.<br/><br/>""If it is combat that you seek, monster, than you have come to the right place: for it is here that you shall receive war in spades!"" Mastodon lowered his tusks and rammed his way through the walls between the hall and the laboratory. The windows exploded and glass was sent flying in all directions as the elephant man tucked his tusk in and held his head low to avoid cutting himself as he charged the jade giant. He planned to impale the Hulk and shove the giant into the nearby sedative gas chamber where they were planning to do experiments on the Hulk himself. Professor Thorton stood by, ready to close the doors and gas both the elephant and the rioting prisoner. ""Idiot."" Kestrel mumbled. Maverick took a few steps forward before John Wraith grabbed his arm and stopped him. ""You need to take down Valkyrie. Let Mastodon handle this brick."" Maverick nodded, and turned towards the hallway. He could hear the angel's shouts grow louder as she approached. His hands glowed a deep orange. He closed his eyes, preparing to unleash a storm of energy blasts on the first thing that walked through that door. Kestrel disappeared once more; likely to inform the rest of Team X what was going on.<br/><br/>A flash of light momentarily blinded X-23, Wolverine and Deadpool and forced them to stop running lest they trip over each other. ""What is is, John?"" Logan asked impatiently. ""Hulk's awake. Mastodon is trying to hold him off as best he can, but you saw what happened last time. We need a plan."" Lady Deathstrike rounded the corner behind the gathering, flanked by the guards from earlier. ""I have a plan."" She stated. ""Wolverine, Laura and I help Mastodon slow down Hulk while Kestrel, Maverick and Deadpool stop Valkyrie. We'll split the guards and send half of each team to assist in both fights. Thorton is no doubt evacuating the building already."" The rest of the team nodded their understanding. They split off into their respective groups and raced down the hallway.<br/><br/>A dozen of the unmarked soldiers took up firing positions behind Valkyrie and opened fire on her back. Deadpool and Kestrel pulled out their own firearms and joined in. Maverick, hearing the gunfire, ran forward and joined in on attacking Valkyrie; now she was receiving fire from both flanks. The long range barrage would hopefully distract Valkyrie long enough for Alpha team to sneak past and help Mastodon fight the Hulk.</div>"

Ready to take the blow then at the last second in a show of intelligence he sidestepped pulling his left foot back and parallel to his right so that the elephant man would miss. Then in the turn he swung his massive fist round slamming it into Elephants mans back intending for him to go tumbling into the chamber that a small voice in the back of his head insisted had been for him. Not that him or the small voice knew that the chamber was essentially useless anyway now. Then he looked at the Doctor that was still in the room, roaring in his direction before following it through by throwing a table.<br/><br/>He was a <span class=""bb-i"">scientist</span> like Puny Banner who wanted to tear him apart to try and make more like him, but nobody was like Hulk. If there was more, they'd never leave him alone. He'd be blamed and they'd want to make even more try and make them like him. They'd break and destroy things and Hulk didn't want that anymore than Banner did. He didn't care if Elephant man was down for the count or if he'd get back up and come after him. He walked to a nearby wall and punched through it, stepping through as rubble fell atop his head. He was leaving, he didn't care about any of this or anyone here. </div>"

Jean helps to reinforce the Beast's charge as she uses her telekinesis to lift Blob's feet off the floor at the exact moment of Beast's impact. Hoping it would at least down him.

The flight proved to be just as long and tedious as Hiro imagined it would be, a tin can like object barreling through the sky at several thousand miles an hour stuffed to the brim with teenagers and one seeming pissed off robot was not Hiro's prefered method of travel although he was glad it was these bunch of rowdy teenagers. <br/><br/>In the distance he could hear Fred and GoGo arguing about something with Honey trying desperatly to stop an impending fight before it started. Wasabi was somewhere doing whatever samurai/chiefs do when confined to a small space while Hiro himself sat quietly looking over stock projections for Stark Technologies. For the longest time now he had been keeping tabs on Tony Stark and his new budding empire taking a great interest in the fact that a kid only a year older then him could take a weapons developer and turn it into one of the largest tech company in the US. Plus having staked a great deal of money into the company himself Hiro couldn't help but be a little interested. <br/><br/><font color=""gray""><span class=""bb-b"">""You should spend less time on that silly device and more time with your friends, because I am honestly getting tired of hearing theri bickering about the existence of mythological entities.""</span></font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""C'mon Baymax...their not debating on their existance just trying to decide who is cooler. Honestly my money is on the lady with a big hammer, she's pretty hot.""</span><br/><br/>A long exasperated sigh escaped Baymax as he simply rubbed the bridge of his nose with his two fingers. Hiro knew good and well what he was talking about but he couldn't help but push his buttons every now and then, it made his life more fun that way. After shutting down his phone Hiro made his way to the back of the plane where his friends were gathered and joined in the conversation. <br/><br/><font color=""green""><span class=""bb-b"">""Dude, without a doubt Thor is the obvious choice.

Besides your both wrong Loki's got one up on both of them.</span></font><br/><br/>Before either Fred or GoGo could respond a beeping sound could be heard throughout the plane. Almost simultaniously all five teens gave an dissapointed sigh knowing that Tadashi was on the other side of the call with some new information reguarding their trip. For weeks prior they had been listening to presentation after boring presentation about how to best fit it with American society, as if they really needed help with that. Most if not all the teens were more in touch than the government was about American society than the Giri although the information about S.H.I.E.L.D. was a bit useful.<br/><br/>Begrudgingly Hiro answered the call and as thought Tadashi was instantly on the other side of the line. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Afternoon team, I have some bad news...""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""What you still can't get a date Mr. Secret Agent Man?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""That's cute coming from kid that still sleeps with his stuffed teddy bear...""</span><br/><br/>Hiro instantly turned the brightest shade of red imaginable turning to see the rest of the team trying their hardest to restrain the near uncontrollable laughter.

It was only a glancing blow but that hammer's crazy physics made it enough to know him loopy. Iron Man tried to grasp and claw for anything he could to get back upright but the pain in his arm and now body had all caught up to him, making it incredibly difficult to do so as he groaned.<br/><br/>""Oh good... yeah I didn't need my liver anyways."" Tony mumbled to himself as he helplessly looked for a way to stay in the fight.<br/><br/>""Thou wilt tell me where Loki is or payeth with thee life. Telleth me Stark, what manner of bribe hath the Son of Laufey furnished thee with to procure such stubborn loyalty?."" Thor said, despite Stark's efforts to slow her down there was barely a drop of sweat on her forehead. <br/><br/>Loki left the hotel dressed in a nice suit, having thankfully talked to reception and manipulate them into giving him a scheduled meeting with Stark that day. He hoped the young man would recognize him, and listen to reason that this 'Thor' was a serious menace. His suit of black and white with a green scarf though did make getting there quickly a bit of a hassle. He would of dressed less formal for things but not only would he feel a bit less of himself, but from what he understood the young Mr. Stark did plenty of dressing lazily himself.<br/><br/>As he could see Stark Tower in the distance though a sudden clap of thunder came nearby it. Being the bright sunny day it was people around him glanced up in a moment of confusion but Loki didn't need to decipher what was happening. She was there, and Tony Stark was in serious trouble. Picking up the pace Loki started towards the tower knowing a plan was needed. Running into a woman of such strength and brute force would equal pain, as Mr. Stark was no doubt learning now. He needed to figure out the spot in her mind that will allow reason, where ever it is muddled among all her cravings for revenge and the clouding it left on the rest of her mind.<br/><br/>As Loki went in he quickly used a spell to make himself invisible, to avoid any security who would stop and question him, which would only slow him down. Slipping into what he hoped was the right elevator Loki reemerged as he hoped it would get him to where he needed to be quickly.<br/><br/>""Wait what?"" Stark awkwardly rolled onto his back, leaning against a wall as he glanced at the furious Goddess lady who was admittedly handing him his own ass. At this point aggression was just a bad idea, and he had to try and reason with her. ""Look he never 'hath bribed' me with anything! Please just chill out for a moment because this is getting a little out of hand here!""<br/><br/>""Enough!"" Thor shouted, at this stage his 'Look behind you its Loki!' trick had pretty much flipped a 'go-nuts' switch in her brain. Stark had put too much faith in his metal suits against a force he simply couldn't reckon with and now he was trying to find a way out, only to find that Thor had pretty much cornered him. Thor wasn't the type to ""use her words"", especially when it appeared Tony didn't quite speak her language.<br/><br/>""Your words bore me. It is you whom asked for this fight so have at thee."" Mjolnir sparked to life, charging up with wicked icy-blue tendrils of lightning, occasionally a stray spark would jump off and spark on the floor, fizzling out quickly, but not without leaving a black scorch mark on the floor. Larger tongues of lightning flicked across the hammer, if the small stray sparks were enough to mar the tiles, one could only guess the scale of the damage the substantial bolts of lightning at her command would inflict.<br/><br/>""You can thanketh Loki for thy demise, it shouldst be he who shalt face mine wrath, yet tis thou who wilt face me in his stead..""<br/><br/>Admittedly, this was less than honorable behavior on Thor's part, and Mjolnir felt ever so slightly heavier in her grasp, although pumped full of adrenalin and anger, her clobbering arm didn't waver, Mjolnir was still hers to command. Somewhere, deep down, the hammer believed she was still worthy, although she was standing on the edge of no return, until she crossed that line, Mjolnir appeared to still have some faith in her ... that is if she came to her senses before it was too late. <br/><br/>As Tony Stark glanced up, the sparks of electricity shooting around the hammer and the metal in the room. Held up in Thor's hand with no question where it was coming down. All Tony could do was look on and realize that you do see your life flash before your eyes before you die. His heart slowing as he felt a tear start to escape his eye. All he could really think in that moment was how he was about to be reunited with his dad.<br/><br/>Before Thor could finish the job though, the elevator door near them dinged and opened. Out stepped the very reason for everything Thor had done. He quickly assessed Tony on the ground, looking like he was in serious pain as one of the arms on his suit was shattered, his flesh seemingly mangled underneath. The right side of his suit also crushed and battered. Loki worried the suit, though impressive, wouldn't do much against the power of Mjonir, and that was confirmed seeing the young man in pain and death staring him in the face. Loki could only thank the gods he got there in time. Tony Stark saw him out of the corner of his eye and although he wasn't out of the woods yet, he was very happy to see someone there who would at least make sure his brain matter wasn't about the spread on the wall.<br/><br/>""I believe you've done plenty already..."" Loki calmly but firmly stated as he stepped out, towards Thor but keeping his distance from her since he knew he was clearly already itching for war. <br/><br/>""It is me you want, is it not? The sole monster of the world."" Loki pained himself a bit saying that but considering Thor's almost predator like hunting for him it wasn't far off presumably. He got a good look at her face, and still the looks kept ringing of something for him, someone from Asgard. He just couldn't figure it out, but if he didn't things may only get uglier.<br/><br/>""I did not come armed for combat, I just want us to rationalize all this before you do something even more irrational than what you've already done.""<br/><br/>One would think that the sheer unadulterated terror Stark was in, pretty much cowering before her, would be enough to flip Thor's ""angry switch"" back into the ""off"" position. Tony was before her, helpless, like a lamb ready for slaughter. Surely now she'd come to her senses, this wasn't the guy she wanted and his death would gain nothing for her. She didn't come to her senses, much like the Hulk when he turned green, Thor was trapped in an endless loop of seeing red and it didn't matter who got in her way.<br/><br/>She may have been blinded, but her hearing didn't defy her. She heard a voice she would recognize anywhere ... The voice that she'd killed for to track down. The voice that belonged to a monster, whom it seemed she was finding more in common with each day, not that she realized it just yet.<br/><br/>Like a candle flame snuffed out in a swift breeze, the lightning fizzed out of Mjolnir and she turned slightly, totally ignoring Stark and her eyes, practically ablaze with fury, settled on Loki. Had Loki been a few seconds too late, Stark would be nothing more than a dented tin-can smashed with brain matter.<br/><br/>""So you finally crawl out of the woodwork like the filthy rat you are. Funny ... you don't usually reveal yourself so willingly Trickster. Hast thee grown weary of using others as thine shield?""<br/><br/>Loki may have been trying to keep his distance, but Thor wasn't on the defensive, she'd give him some words, but she was growing impatient already, she wanted his blood. ""I've already grown tired of your words, Liar. You cannot rationalize what you've done to Asgard ... To me."" Loki wasn't facing an Asgardian seeking to avenge her home, he was facing a woman whom he'd destroyed in the past. This wasn't for Asgard anymore, her rage had consumed her, this was for Tarene. Vengeance not justice.<br/><br/>""Arm thyself and face me."" she shouted. ""Or wouldn't thou rather I tear out thy treacherous neck with mine bare hands?""<br/><br/>Loki stood firmly in place, she wanted a war but he wasn't going to give her one. He's already fought enough battles and let shed enough blood to even fancy such a thought. Instead he knew he had to treat her, for lack of a better term, as an animal. Finally un-caged, ready to strike. He had to show he wasn't afraid of her, but that he respected what she could do to him if he didn't play everything he was about to very carefully.<br/><br/>""I cannot rationalize what I did to Asgard no. But speaking to me like I'm the monster... its funny to think about."" Loki's eyes glanced over to the wounded Tony Stark. Feeling pity that the young man had gotten thrown into something that, even with his immense intelligence. Was all something he could never truly understand.<br/><br/>""I don't quite understand how you think this young man is 'my shield'. I had only met and worked with him briefly last night. More to the point, I fail to see how spilling his blood was suppose to fix what had happened."" Loki glanced back at Thor again but this time a face suddenly came to him, one of great sadness but of tremendous anger. Who had the blade that plunged into his own heart that sent him to the netherworld. loki suddenly understood everything, who she was, and why she was.<br/><br/>""Tarene."" Was the only word to slip out of his lips when the realization came to him. It was at that moment he understood how to solve this puzzle with no blood spilled.<br/><br/>""Tarene."" <br/><br/>It echoed when he said it. Strange, since they weren't in an ""echoey"" room. All the words, all the anger she wanted to unleash on Loki seemed to freeze, she wasn't dumbstruck, she was just frozen briefly. Perhaps this was another one of his tricks? She wouldn't put it past him to pull a stunt like that.<br/><br/>""So you do remember me."" she said, her voice steady, it almost sounded calm, but the undercurrent of sheer blazing hot rage ensured Loki wasn't so mistaken.<br/><br/>She didn't look in Stark's direction when Loki suggested she kill him, her gaze was locked on Loki. She'd seen what had happened on Asgard, up until the last moment when she'd fled. Part of her couldn't believe Loki was really here.<br/><br/>Her fingers coiled tighter around Mjolnir and her wrist shifted position slightly, as if preparing to strike, the hammer hummed softly with energy but the air remained oddly calm and still.<br/><br/>""THAT Tarene died on Asgard, by your hand. Do I not deserve the same satisfaction of slaying you?""<br/>She glanced over at Stark, injured, a little shaken up ... okay very shaken up, but he was very much in the land of the living. ""Perhaps it is too late for me? Perhaps I have already become a monster, the very same as you, maybe it is the right time for me to indulge and slay you. If I truly cannot be redeemed, I shall enjoy my fall from grace."" Her fingers twitched, setting up an attack? Loki and Stark would find out in a fraction of a second, that was all it took for her to wreak utter havoc. <br/><br/>Loki sensed her feelings start to dampen as just seeing her guard drop ever so slightly made Loki hope she understood what he said. Still he knew she perhaps needed more.<br/><br/>""A lot of innocent people have died because of these hands Tarene."" Loki quietly held out the very palms towards her to show.<br/><br/>""A long time in the Netherworld, and back here in Midgard all left me with time to wonder what I gained by doing what I did. What I gained was nothing. I didn't make my own situation better, I didn't fix anything. All that happened was my thirst for anger only grew, and the few fleeting moments of satisfaction only led to more anger. Tarene I know I couldn't apologize to you and have any part of it mean a damn thing. We both know what I did on Asgard is unforgivable. But I can assure you vengeance upon me will never fix what had happen. I'm not saying forgive me for what I did, I simply want you to stop before you repeat my horrible mistakes.""<br/><br/>The silence in the room and the thick tense feeling all made everything in that moment seemingly stand still as Loki quietly tried to gauge the fellow Asgardian's next move. Best case scenario she'd drop Mjolnir and the madness would stop, worst case scenario... Loki would most likely regret coming to Stark Tower unarmed, and the building would lose an owner.<br/><br/>Suddenly an ever so gentle twitch in her hand holding the mighty hammer twitched, Loki reacted with a slight step forward. It was one more pause before fate decided their lives. <br/><br/>A stray spark flickered off Mjolnir, Tarene wasn't looking in his direction, but perhaps Stark was still a little jumpy. Loki on the other hand ... he took a step closer. It was a bold move ... and a stupid one. Mjolnir hit the floor with a dull ""thud"" and left a small scorch mark outlining its spot on the floor, as quickly as the hammer hit the ground, Tarene closed the gap between herself and Loki in one brisk stride, catching him by the throat with one hand.<br/><br/>""Stark. If you value your life you'll get out of here before I change my mind. I'm in a generous mood today. Leave."" she said flatly. If Stark hesitated and decided to stick around, he'd just get caught in the cross-fire. She wasn't going to kill him to get to Loki, now that Loki was here, but that didn't mean he wouldn't end up getting squashed by accident if things suddenly kicked off and he got caught up in the firefight.<br/><br/>Not taking the opening to get out of the scene in vain Tony still had to struggle with only a single good arm to pull a seriously wounded body with.  He wasn't sure if Tarene's threat was fully empty or very real and frankly after the morning he just had he didn't want to know.  Though losing energy fast and not having much to get him and the now more and more seemingly bulky Iron Man suit to carry was all quickly turning into a burden.  <br/><br/>Suddenly though a pair of hands grasped his arm as he glanced up.  Pepper had slipped away from the desk and, even knowing what could happen to her, wasn't about to let Tony get hurt any further.  “Here come on Tony.”  She muttered to Tony as the moment of realizing what she was doing put a little extra energy back into him.  His legs kicking and helping propel him along the ground and out of the scene.  “Man you're the best receptionist I've ever had...”  Tony weakly joked as the two turned the corner past the door and back into his office.<br/><br/>""Mjolnir grows heavier in my hand each day ever since you appeared here ... blighting this realm as you did Asgard ..."" she glanced at her free hand, Loki still trapped, unarmed and pretty much at her mercy, although he was armed with an arsenal of spells, he'd surely find a way out if he needed to. Tarene's hands were bloodied, from the fight, though it wasn't any major damage ... still, there was more blood on her hands right now than there was on Loki's.<br/><br/>""You claim you want to save me from myself, do you not?"" she asked, then again that was what he suggested, stop now, don't make the same mistake he had made.<br/><br/>""You want to appeal to my sense of humanity."" she coiled her hand up into a fist and punched him squarely in the jaw.<br/><br/>""What if it's too late for that? Just like it's too late for Asgard ... for my friends, Sif, Volstagg, Fandral, Hogun ... Your brother!"" she shouted, punching him again.<br/><br/>It was weird ... Tarene felt as if she would feel better if she killed him ... That she'd enjoy hurting him as badly as he'd hurt her. Yet ... she just felt hollow. She let go of his throat and stared at her hands for a moment.<br/><br/>""Mjolnir still believes I am worthy ... I cannot tell why, I'd have slain Stark in a heartbeat without even- ..."" she was turning into a monster ... maybe Mjolnir knew part of her was still in there, a good part, but it was like a candle in a dark dark cave and it was almost snuffed out by anger. It was funny that Loki of all people was now attempting to save her.<br/><br/>""Are you truly sorry for what you have done?"" she asked. Loki may have thought his apologies didn't matter a damn ... but no one apologized for Ragnarok, and while beating the snot out of Loki probably wouldn't make her feel better ... perhaps an apology would. <br/><br/>The punch to the jaw was surprising if only because Tarene had limited herself to merely punching him but even as Loki forced himself back onto his feet while rubbing his jaw after being knocked down by a blow that would have most likely most likely have hospitalized a mortal man, the trickster let the pain numb away a little while he thought about what he was going to say. He could have just said yes and been done with it but that would have been something hollow and without meaning. <br/><br/>When facing the judgment of one whom he had truly wronged, he decided to dig deep for his answer. She deserved nothing less then the honest truth. The embers of a hatred that had consumed all its fuel in a raging inferno of madness and revenge and had starved itself to death once everything had burned briefly flared up and glowed in the eyes of the trickster as he looked down at the damaged floor of Stark's office in quite contemplation. A loud sigh extinguished the embers once more; The tone in Loki's voice seemed to betray just how much he had witnessed and done.<br/><br/>""The path that led to Ragnarok was paved by pride, arrogance, mistrust and betrayal on all sides. I cannot speak for the actions of others that contributed to the end of Asgard, but I have long had to live with the fact that the lion's share of the blame rests on my shoulders. If I had the ability to go back and relive my life again knowing what I know now I would -love- to say that things would have been sunshine and rainbows but I know that it wouldn't have been. With many of the circumstances unchanged, there still would have been a breaking point... but it would not have spiraled out of control like it did. Maybe I wouldn't have had so much innocent blood on my hands..."" Raising the hands in question in order to look at them briefly, Loki sighed before looking Tarene in the eyes. <br/><br/>""I am sorry Tarene. You and many more like you did not deserve what I helped to bring about. There are few days that I do not wish that things hadn't spiraled out of control like it did and when I was blessed with a second chance, I promised myself that I would use it to become the man I should have tried to be in the first place; I might never atone for what I have done, but if I don't try what point is there to receiving a second chance at life?""<br/><br/>""If you want to hit me again, go ahead. If anyone has the right to do it it's you."" <br/><br/>Tarene looked as though for a moment she was planning on it, exchanging glances between him and her fist which clinched in and out a bit.  However after a brief moment she let out a sigh, finally just fell over and took a seat onto the ground.  Her face a strange mix of broken, inflictive, and regretful.  From there SHIELD arrived fairly quickly because of the emergency signal.  The large force of agents were ready for war against Tarene but were not prepared for her extending out her hands, and willingly turning herself in.  She was put into the strongest handcuffs they had, and taken away to everyone's sigh of relief.</div>"

Mastodon cried out in surprise as he went flying into the sedative chamber. His massive, fur-covered back slammed into the rear of the cage that his body created a vaguely elephant-shaped dent in the wall. The quick witted behemoth was quick to push himself back to his feet and raised his fists. He wasn't down and out quite yet. ""You sluggish brute! Return to my side, that we may make glorious battle. Victory will belong to Mastodon this day!"" But the taunt didn't take. The Hulk turned away from the D-list super villain and faced Professor Thorton, who was still standing in the second-story observation room looking down at the jade giant. Sweat poured down from his brow; the doctor was only now beginning to realize how truly outmatched his forces were. <span class=""bb-i"">Bruce Banner is no longer a man. </span>The Professor thought. <span class=""bb-i"">He has become a force of nature.</span> The creature let loose a terrible roar. The bellow echoed throughout the compound, causing nearly everyone to hesitate and listen. Such anger. Such rage. This mindless monster's livid hatred was plain to see; it was a hatred that had festered and grown for years. A hatred embedded into the thing's very soul. A hatred now directed at Thorton. The Hulk wrapped a giant hand around the operating table and pulled it out of the concrete and tile floor as if it hadn't been bolted down at all. Professor Thorton, frozen by fear, couldn't move a muscle as the table came flying through the reinforced glass and slammed into him.<br/><br/>""THORTON!"" Mastodon screamed out in a mixture of horror and confusion, watching as his mentor was apparently crushed by a flying table. The Elephant Man ran up behind the Hulk with the intention of beating the monster's head in. He was stopped in his tracks, however, by the sound of an alarm blaring throughout the base. The voice of the late Professor echoed over the intercom. ""Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. If you're hearing this message, then that means that my heart has stopped. Do not attempt to save me; the detonation of the nuclear bomb placed underneath this facility cannot be stopped or reversed. Contingency plan Alpha-Centuari Canary One is now in affect. I repeat: Contingency plan Alpha-Centauri Canary One is now in affect. All units are to evacuate the premises immediately. Self destruct in two minutes. I apologize for the extreme measures, but I must make sure that the Weapon X Program dies with me. I..."" Thorton chocked up, before talking in a breathe of air and continuing. ""I'm doing this because I love you all. I may not have ever showed it, but I cared deeply for each and every one of you. I'll be damned if I let Romulus manipulate more mutants into joining his war against Trask and his Sentinel Order. You deserve better than this, Team X. You deserve to be FREE.""<br/><br/>Wolverine, Laura and Lady Deathstrike rushed into the lab through the hole in the wall created by the over-anxious Mastodon. ""What's Thorton goin' on about?"" Logan asked as he stared down the Hulk, who was moments from escaping. ""We've been lied to. Manipulated. Controlled."" Lady Deathstrike realized it was as if a fog that had been covering her mind for some time had finally lifted. ""I don't know how or why, but Romulus had taken control of our brains and altered our way of thinking."" X-23 looked at Deathstrike as if she'd gone mad. ""Everything I've done, I've done of my own volition. No one here is manipulating us but Thorton. Even in death, that bastard is leading us on. Now come on, we have a giant to fell."" Laura popped her claws and took a step towards the Hulk. Logan shot out his hand and wrapped his fingers around X-23's forearm. ""Lady's got a point, kid."" Logan rasped. ""Ever wonder why we can't remember where we came from? Or why we've never wanted to go outside 'less Rommy said so? Doesn't fit, not with me."" Laura ripped Logan's hand off her arm, breaking his grip. ""We wouldn't be having this conversation if we were mind controlled, you idiots."" While the three mutants were busy bickering, they didn't notice Valkyrie approaching until she flew between the three of them and the Hulk and started shouting. By this time the Hulk was already outside; moments from leaping away.<br/><br/>""He's getting away!"" Laura took off at a sprint towards Valkyrie and the Hulk, letting loose a ferocious battle cry like some sort of animal. ""KID!"" Wolverine yelled, following after her. X-23 jumped over Valkyrie, dodging any attempt to stop her using an impressive display of acrobatics and inhuman reflexes. Logan's clone and female counterpart stabbed into the Hulk's thick back and swung around to the green beast's face, aiming to shove her foot-claw into the creature's left eye. At the same time she brought her second pair of claws around and aimed to impale them into the much more powerful behemoth's head. Wolverine, eager to help his pseudo-daughter, approached Valkyrie with the same surprising speed. Instead of acting her with his claws, Wolverine did the unexpected: he struck the physically stronger opponent with a nerve strike. The move was meant to disable a normal human's muscles for just a few seconds; long enough for Wolverine to grab X-23 and pull her away from a rightfully pissed off Hulk. ""I'll hold 'em off! GET TO THE AZRAEL!"" Team X hesitated for a moment. ""GO-"" Wolverine roared, before the Hulk grabbed him by the face and tossed the tiny mutant outside. Kestrel led the remaining members of Team X out of the room and up towards the landing pad. Mastodon kept himself between Valkyrie and the rest of the group as they bade themselves retreat. ""I shall hold off this femme fatale whilst you all make your escape!"" Mastodon proclaimed. Maverick stopped running, turning towards his friend. ""You can't! That nuke'll kill you for sure."" Elephant Man turned towards Maverick and smiled. ""I will see you again, my friend. In this life or the next. Now run!""<br/><br/>Wolverine looked up at the Hulk, the monster dwarfing Logan in sheer size. ""Ah, crap."" He muttered. This wasn't going to end well.</div>"

Tore through his skin and drew blood. He moved his hand up to his face ready to catch the women who cut him however she was pulled away first and his hand grasped at thin air. He turned to face the man in yellow and pushed him aside with one of his massive hands covering the mutants face. However then he saw that Valkyrie had stepped in between him and the others, taking several hits for him. He let out a breath of hot air out of his nose and ran straight at Mastodon. Brushing Valkyrie, gently, aside. As he ran at the beast. He didn't actually see that Wolverine had been the one to use the nerve strike so Mastodon would be the one to be subject to his rage. <br/><br/>Before the Elephant man could react to anything Hulk grabbed him by the tusks, both of them. Leaning down till there faces were within inches of eachother and he roared, far louder than anything heard within New York or Australia. Birds in the distance took off from their perches as they flew off in fear. Some of the looser snow on treetops nearby fell, the sound revertebrating around the clearing that the facility sat within. Mastodon got a face full of the roar. Then Hulk just grinned, pulling Mastodon round once, twice, three times as if in a dance. Spinning his partner until in the beak of a swing - he let go. Hulk wasn't sure if Mastodon would survive it, yet he did it anyway despite puny Banners protests. The anger that Banner felt at the man apparently dying had simply fuelled Hulk. Made him stronger than Banner.<br/><br/>That said, he was loosing all sense of reasoning as Banners voice became quieter and quieter. Only one thing was certain, Valkyrie had been a nice lady. Like the nice lady Banner once knew before they had to run away. He cast a glance at Wolverine and merely let out a grunt as he picked up Valkyrie gently. Then he ran into the woods, and jumped. Soaring through the air as he did so, as soon as he landed he jumped again. Taking him further and further into the Canadian wilderness. When the sky lit up with the explosion, and they weren't affected by it, he stopped. Placing Valkyrie down and then walking back away from her. <br/><br/>Crouching beside the ground, watching her.</div>"

A group of Doomdogs came running down the ramp, as well as some less human looking Doombots (The general infantry didn't need to mimic him after all). The dogs moved between the delegates of the shadow conquerors and the rapidly changing Aleksei Systevich, he did his research. This wasn't exactly the turn of events he was going for, and he didn't like what was going on.<br/><br/>He didn't know what was going on. He didn't like that either. The Doombots fanned out and surrounded the group, though right now it looked like the side to side with was in fact the Shadow Conquerors. Despite the fact that he had already surmised that they were the ones to perform the attack, it was too poorly co-ordinated to be a military strike. Though while he didn't like surprises, he was fond of being impressed.<br/><br/>Doom's thoughts were cut short, however, by the barrelling figure of the Rhino - whom had discarded his adornments to reveal a full sharp gray body suit. If it didn't produce a striking resemblance to the creature, Wanda would have thought he looked ridiculous. Instead, she somewhat admired him in a way as she observed the huge man battering aside one of the attacking mechanical dogs while ripping the head off another. The four Doom humanoids stood back from the conflict, each watching with an enigmatic - yet she suspected concerned - expression. Other metal men had emerged from the aircraft with the dog reinforcements, and the robots whom where not battling the Rhino were clumped in a defensive manner. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Now why on Earth have the Government opted for this display?</span> It was certainly a foolish action at first glance, and Doom had already set a precedent in the few moments she had known him by taking measures to confuse onlookers to the real him - if he was even actually here. And if the Government wanted war with Latveria, she didn't know why, and while they had sufficient forces to combat them for a time they would be leaving their flank open for Wanda to attack with her Conquerors. Not that she was complaining, if the Government wanted to doom themselves then she would finally enact the revenge she lusted for. <span class=""bb-i"">The fools.</span><br/><br/>Wanda came to a decision. Unfortunately, she could not channel her magical onslaught through Arissa's body, but that was why she had commanded Baron to accompany her to the intervention. The towering man was pitiful at diplomacy, and communication in general, but he packed a heavy punch. She grabbed his wrist just as one of the Shadows she had brought as additional security jogged up to her.<br/><br/>""Sir, Delegate, we really should retreat from the scene."" <br/><br/>Wanda shot him a glare through Arissa's eyes with her aura, and snarled.<br/><br/>""I have greater plans at work, fool! Away with you!""<br/><br/>The Shadow narrowed his eyes at the unprecedented insult from what he assumed to be Arissa, but backed off to the small group nevertheless. Wanda rolled her eyes with disdain and turned to Baron, who was watching her silently.<br/><br/>""I need you to get involved. Battle the Rhino, but let the Dooms finish him off. If ever we are to light the spark to an alliance, it is now."" Baron nodded in response and clenched his fists. The Dooms were sending more metal facsimiles to battle the hulking Government man, and Baron soon joined them.<br/><br/>Doom hit something on his wrist as the broadcast was sent. ""Let it be known that I tried to reach a peaceful resolution between the three parties. The Sokovian government chose the destructive path. So be it, on their own heads."" The Doombots advanced on the Rhino while the four possible Dooms stood still. There was a hum and a roar as the Jet shot back up into the air. Doom let loose a smile behind his mask as people watched it go.<br/><br/>This wasn't within his plans, this fight wasn't something he was going for. Not yet. One of the four possible Dooms stepped forward running towards Rhino as the other Doombots stood in a defensive circle in order to prevent any member of the Sokovian army from interfering. Rhino turned and ran at him, as two Doomdogs then jumped up onto his back their claws trying to dig into the armour.<br/><br/>Rhino's path disrupted, the possible Doom sidestepped to let the Rhino go careering past him, then raising his hand up to the centre of Rhino's back between the Doomdogs he let loose an energy bolt.<br/><br/>The barrage of energy impaling into the back of Systevich sent him sprawling towards Baron, who had been moving around and past most of the Dooms to close the Rhino into a horseshoe. The two large figures careened away to the left of Doom's aircraft, and Wanda could see blood already flowing freely from Baron's nose. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">He won't last long at all</span>. It had come down to a decision for Wanda. The chaos caused by Doom's untimely interjection opened an enticing opportunity that the Government had never offered before. Systevich's sudden hostility was a sign of desperation - perhaps the Government had come to the end of their patience? Maybe the Conqueror's incessant attacks had become too much? Or... <span class=""bb-i"">No. They could be taking out our outposts right now. Moving towards the base of operations</span>. It dawned on Wanda with a sudden epiphany that this was the final battle. Doom's appearance meant the end of the decades of guerrilla warfare, and with the Government's larger forces and however much weaponry they had stolen from Latveria, the syndicate's survival was at stake. The President could focus his attention on destroying the Conquerors while they placed themselves on equal ground with Doom's state. Two possible routes formulated in her head, the first - she could send out her forces to meet the Government and try and cut off the head of the beast, by targeting the President. The second - she could stay and attempt to form an alliance with Doom. The latter would make her force able to overwhelm the Governments, but she would be abandoning the Conquerors to disconcerting odds. Then again, if she retreated from Arissa's body to return to her own several miles away, Doom could still treat her and her syndicate as a threat.<br/><br/>She sighed sharply and narrowed her eyes at the close-knit group of metal men that were inexorably destroying the Rhino. Baron had manouvred himself and the Government brute back towards Doom - though it appeared that Wanda's own thug was on his last legs. Moreover, the fire-arm wielding throngs of Sokovia's army were subtely readying their weapons at Doom and Baron. Simultaneously Wanda's small bodyguard unit were frantically calling into their comms for reinforcements and eyeing the many barrels of the army's guns, lest they turned towards them. The worst part was, Wanda could not conduit her abilities through Arissa's body, meaning to have any physical impact upon the airport standoff she would have to return in her body. The mere time lost from that movement could result in the corpses of too many of her own pawns, but if she did nothing then she could end up causing the death of Arissa's body also. <br/><br/>Wanda rolled her eyes with irritation and made a decision. Arissa's mind returned quickly to her waiting body - but the unnatural action of the transferral had caused the body to spasm, and the sudden movement unfortunately sent a smattering of bullets careening towards her. The airport strip descended into chaos as a hailstorm of gunfire erupted between the army and the growing force of Shadows, while the battle between Rhino, Baron and Doom's men still raged.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Credits"" type=""button"">Credits [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/eru-iluvatar"">@Eru Iluvatar</a></div></div></div></div>"

And that meant she was getting sliced and diced and scratched. Some of them too fast to heal over instantly. The power of the God's were not as quick as she'd have liked sometimes. Thankfully, Hulk took on Mastodon and got rid of him. But his almighty roar forced her to tremble and cover her ears in pain. Damned those Asgardian heightened senses.<br/><br/>But then she heard the alarm and panicked. She could fly fast but wasn't sure if she could make the blast radius in time. Luckily, Hulk had picked her up and scaled the air so fast with his jumps to avoid the blast. She had been sent in to rescue him but he ended up rescuing her. How the rides had turned. Valkyrie held on tight in his big strong arm, the feeling of flying so fast in the air was invigorating. She always loved that.<br/><br/>Upon setting her down before the massive green 'monster', who was really a big softie at heart, and no-one would ever really see that side of him often. Valkyrie's armour was partially hanging off, cut to pieces, her leather armour torn to shreds. Her bloodied wounds were starting to heal over slowly as her body glowed golden. Although, she had to kneel after taking such a beating from six highly skilled killers. She panted slightly and removed her winged helmet to reveal her long brown wavy hair, slightly frayed. ""Thank you. For saving my life."" Came a small smile from her lips and a tiredness in her eyes. A 'monster' would have left her there to die.<br/><br/>But she was still more concerned for his well being than her own, she could heal over in time but his damage was more from a mental torture. ""Are you...alright?"" She wasn't sure to call him Hulk, Doctor Banner or both. The SHIELD helicarrier had escaped the blast zone and started to make its way toward Valkyrie.<br/><br/>Finally, she used her sword to stabbing it into the ground and lift herself up by leaning on it and then introduced herself by placing a dainty hand on her chest. She looked too gentle underneath all that armour to be a warrior. ""My name is Victoria."" She showed no sign of fear around this hulking great creature, whereas most would have probably bolted from him by now. But she just smiled at him as if he were any other normal person. Like it did not matter to her. After all, who was SHE to judge? She was an Asgardian but not Asgardian? She didn't really understand herself let alone others with stranger powers. It is what it is. <br/><br/>""SHIELD sent me in to rescue you, but I think it was <span class=""bb-i"">you</span>, rather, who rescued <span class=""bb-i"">me</span>."" She let out a light chuckle. She knew he wasn't all that bad despite what people had said or what she had seen. He was more -misunderstood-. He used to be a brilliant scientist, a good man, from what she heard, and he must still be in there somewhere.<br/><br/>""I can take you back to Australia if you want to be left alone again."" She offered with a kind and gentle tone. Straightening herself out, clearly she was in some pain as she winced holding one of her shoulder blades, the wing seemed to be dangling as if broken. Once again, she seemed to know how he was feeling. Her empathy was a wonderful gift, heightened by the Gods. ""Or anywhere else you'd prefer to go?"" After all his Australia camp had now been compromised...</div>"

Zebediah had lain still, pretending to be as dead as he thought he should have been, for that time - listening with intent to the President's angry cries and rants at the men around him. A cellphone stayed perpetually at his ear, except for the moments when he dialled a new number or accepted an incoming call. It appeared to Killgrave from his subdued position on the cold ground that everything had gone to hell for the Government, and he hoped it had for the Shadow Conquerors also. Three men stood around him: one with a gun to the back of his head, another whose footsteps he heard pattering around him and a final man who was muttering to the second and scribbling with a pencil. <br/>A sudden shout, much closer than before, announced the arrival of what could only be the President of Sokovia.<br/><br/>""Up with him. Up!"" The voice, barked. Blaring lamplight blinded Killgrave as he was thrust into an upright position by the gun handler. The movement revealed two things to him - that his hands were bound behind his back, and, as his joints jolted awake, neither his left leg or right arm were numb or paralysed. He could feel the hard grip of a hand on his elbow, though no pain born of the bullet arose. The same occurred with his leg as he was part-dragged, part-led to face the President. As his eyes adjusted, Zebediah was able to glance towards the twin puddles of blood signifying the Conqueror's betrayal. To his astonishment, the puddles were small and shallow, and at the centre of each was a gleaning black bullet.<br/><br/>""What -"" He started, but his gruff voice turned to a cry of pain. The President had embedded a sharp knife as long as a piranha's tooth into his stomach. The pain gripped him, all-consuming, his breath stolen from his lungs. Then, it lessened. And continued to do so. Killgrave's brows rose in absolute bemusement. The President shared his expression, and it was then that Zebediah first saw the man's face in person. He had seen him before on posters and on dusty TV screens, but looking at it now it seemed... different. <span class=""bb-i"">Like there's a different man looking out of his eyes</span>. The President's bald head blended into his bearded face into his three-piece suit as a great exhaustion filled Killgrave's head. He had no chance to examine the President further, however, as the pain from the knife had almost dispersed and the object itself was quickly, horrifically, retreating from it's home in his stomach. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit, what the hell has happened to me?!</span><br/><br/>""Remarkable."" The President gasped, as he easily retrieved the blood-covered knife. A handkerchief was on it immediately, cleaning the dark red substance from the blade. ""He will serve perfectly in the battle to come."" The foreigner gestured at the man holding Zebediah, and the grip was swiftly released from his arms. The binding of his hands still forbade any resistance, but it was pleasant to have a degree of independence returned to him. <br/>An exquisitely dressed officially soon approached the President and the three men who stood behind Zebediah. He bowed gracefully, though an urgent fear was plastered onto his face.<br/><br/>""Mister President, apologies. Captain Systevich has engaged the Latverians and we have sent men to each of the known resistance bases, three squads to each, sir."" <span class=""bb-i"">Latverians</span>? The President nodded and cleared his throat loudly, but he did not say anything for a couple of minutes. The official was clearly waiting for a reply, and uninvited beads of sweat were quickly appearing on his forehead.<br/><br/>""Fine. Send another from Enhancement if Systevich doesn't come through - preferably Parks. Also, reinforce every group that encounters a substantial amount of Conquerors. I'm going to the Recluse base, and there's a boat there if you need it, Senator. I can sacrifice my seat now that our abandoned operative here has proven an efficient human shield."" The President drawled. He cleared his throat again as the senator bowed and stepped away. The foreigner then signalled to a waiting group of armed men by the weapon collection. Four of them stepped forward, two positioning themselves behind Killgrave as they grabbed his arms and pulled him to his feet while the other two took point ahead of the President. Men in grey overalls and weathered bodies were running past them with crates of the stolen Latverian weapons, though they made sure to move a significant distance away from where Zebediah stood looking at them. The five Government men with their prisoner then began to move towards the agape hangar doors leading into the cold night air. One of the runners with the crates, however, matched Zebediah's stare as they moved away. Killgrave recognised signs of curiosity in the returned gaze, but mostly... fear.<br/><br/>One of the armed men was whispering intently to the President as they emerged into the night. It was colder than it had been when Killgrave had entered. The man kept glancing back at Zebediah, and the President - though angered at first, was nodding to the gunman's words. Zebediah was able to hear their conversation as they slowed to a halt outside the hangar.<br/><br/>""It's giving me the creeps. Looks so... unnatural."" The gunman said. He held up an open bottle of water as he approached Killgrave, and there was also the President's bloodied handkerchief in his other hand. ""Let's get this shit off you, purple man."" He muttered, and one of the two men holding Killgrave chuckled. <span class=""bb-i"">Purple? What does that mean?</span> A welcome attack of water drowned his battered face.<br/><br/>""What do you mean, purple?"" Killgrave spoke. His only answer was a butt in the back of his knee by one of his guards, sending him to the ground. The guards hoisted him up. <br/><br/>""Shh. Quiet."" The man cleaning his face snapped. The handkerchief was rough on his face, as it spread the water around his mouth and onto his nose. It drew back, sending dribbles left on the cloth onto his guard disguise. The water obscured Killgrave's vision, but he could hear the sharp intake of breath from the gunman. The handkerchief returned to assault his face along with another splash from the bottle. <span class=""bb-i"">Wait. That purple gas...?</span><br/><br/>""Uhm, sir?"" The gunman called in a soft, scared voice.<br/><br/>""What? What is it?"" The President turned, the phone again at his ear.<br/><br/>""It's not... And..."" <br/><br/>The President stepped closer to Killgrave, shock spreading over his face also.<br/><br/>""Dear God, his <span class=""bb-i"">eyes</span>!""<br/><br/>It was the growing irritation at the Government men's tones and the water dripping through his hair and washing cold down his shirt and obscuring his eyesight and the growing tension around him that caused Killgrave to snap his head up in a mad sense of anger.<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#92278f"">Get <span class=""bb-b"">away</span> from me</font>!</span>""<br/><br/>They ran.  </div>"

Riding on a terrestrial aircraft was far slower than Zhib-Ran's natural flight, but Agent Milton doubted that Wilson's primitive set of artificial wings could keep up with Hyperion's own near lightspeed movement. So he could forgive his ""superior's"" decision to take the aircraft instead. He listened as Sam started to explain a plan that Director Nick Fury (or more likely his think tanks) thought up. Although Captain America would attempt to conceal his enthusiasm for this new project, it was plain to see (In Milton's eyes, anyway) that he had faith in whatever the higher ups had cooked up this time. Hyperion followed behind Cap into the main cabin and took a seat opposite him. He sat for a moment waiting for Wilson to finish with the pilot and take a seat. While he was sitting, Zhib-Ran noticed the air conditioning was bothering his now-exposed skin; his original world had always been warmer than most places on Earth. The irritation grew to such level of annoyance that Agent Milton decided to do something about it. After all, he had a dozen seconds or so to spare.<br/><br/>Hyperion stood up and zipped out of the ramp door and flew to the Midwest of the United States. He landed on the doorstep of a small farmhouse, knocking the door down and stepping inside. A white-haired woman peeked around the corner, investigating the source of the sound. She let loose a shrill, wordless scream before retreating backwards and out of sight. Milton crossed towards the stairway and smiled when he reached the second door to the left. The door was covered in poorly drawn pictures of a small family and photos of Spiderman clipped out of various Daily Bugle newspapers. Hyperion smashed the door down and was immediately greeted by the terrified cries of a young boy. Milton entered the child's room, ignoring his incessant need to announce his displeasure at this intrusion by bursting Zhib-Ran's sensitive eardrums. The SHIELD Agent moved to the center of the room. He examined the floor using his X-Ray vision; upon finding what he needed, Hyperion pulled up a number of wooden floor boards to reveal an obsidian colored box. He placed a massive hand on the surface of the strange shape, the area underneath flashed light blue and a voice spoke in a language unknown to man. The obsidian box split in two, and Hyperion pulled out a set of unearthly clothes. He violently shredded off the remains of his previous uniform and donned the black and gold set of tights that his people were known for. He finished off the getup by attaching the golden cape to his neck near the Atom symbol that dominated his suit's upper chest area. The symbol of his house: the atom, the thing that makes up all others. It holds entire worlds together. Yet it contains enough power to destroy them as well. It was all quite meaningful and theatrical symbolism that the people of Tok ate up. Hyperion glanced at the remains of the boy's door, at the pictures of this ""Spider-Man"" he had plastered on it. It would seem the people of Earth believe just as much (if not more so) in the idea of symbolism.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Good.</span> Milton thought. <span class=""bb-i""> I've always been a powerful symbol.</span><br/><br/>Suddenly an elderly man in overalls burst into the room, firing off a blast from his double barreled shotgun right into Hyperion's chest. The tiny pellets bounced harmlessly off his invincible body and left no mark on his new clothing. The suit was also designed to absorb solar radiation, so even its brief exposure to sunlight after all of these years left it able to deflect weapons fire. Zhib-Ran glared at the farmer, livid anger building up inside of him. <span class=""bb-i"">This peasant just struck me.</span> He thought. <span class=""bb-i"">It dared to raise a finger against it's god.</span> The hatred in his gaze rapidly mounted as the farmer fired off a second shell. <span class=""bb-i"">He doesn't even know how easily I could end his life. How easily I could shatter this entire putrid planet into shards. The ignorance. The stupidity. Such a creature doesn't deserve to live. </span> Milton didn't notice his vision turning crimson. He didn't notice a pair of red beams exiting his pupils and turning the farmer and his wife into ash. He had become deaf to the sound of the child crying out for help. He wanted some hero to swoop in and save him. Perhaps even his God to lift a single finger to stop this horrendous act of murder right in front of his eyes. The wooden walls of the building caught fire. The red slowly faded from Hyperion's eyes, and he looked at all he had done. A pair of charred skeletons clutched each other in a final, desperate embrace. The little boy stumbled across the burning room and collapsed over their corpses, tears falling down his face in waves.<br/><br/>The rapidly expanding inferno would soon consume everything inside. There would be no evidence to point towards Hyperion's involvement in their deaths. It wasn't time for his true intentions to be revealed quite yet anyway. It was for the best, after all. Hyperion left the Midwest in a hurry and entered the quinjet moments before its ramp closed. He zipped into his seat and looked across at a confused Captain America. ""Excuse my absence. I needed to retrieve a change of clothing; it's unnaturally cold in here."" Hyperion smiled warmly. Sam started his presentation using one of those touch screen computers that humans seemed so fond of. He listened to the Captain's words and took mental notes on all of the individual candidates shown while also reading over the dossiers multiple times and closely examine the images so that he could remember his soon-to-be new teammates by both face and name. They all seemed as if they would offer enough to the team to be semi-useful, though in truth Hyperion doubted they would be much help when they started to get into the big leagues. They were no Squadron Supreme, that was for sure. He made sure to keep a note of Wilson's obvious dislike of Tony Stark as well as this 'Miss America' girl's origins. If she knew anything about Hyperion's past, everything would be put into jeopardy. He would need to get her alone and see what she knew.<br/><br/>""Yes. I led my own team of crime fighters. The press called us the Squadron Supreme, if I recall. We were more of an informal gathering of powerful heroes from nearby solar systems that got together whenever large threats to the galaxy presented themselves. We were all around the same power level, so we made an even more powerful force to be reckoned with. Except for Nighthawk, that clever piece of Vark-"" Hyperion stopped himself, clearing his throat. ""I believe this team has potential. They will certainly be an asset to SHIELD's war on super-crime, if they can manage to work together. I have my doubts about the inclusion of a potential villain and what amounts to a rich playboy with a couple of fancy toys to an official SHIELD-sponsored team, but I'm sure you can whip them into shape. I'll do all I can to help, of course.""</div>"

The fight had appeared extremely brutal, with America punching her way through all of them as if they were made of paper. That had not been the case however as the young heroine had held back with her punches, keen to not injure these men to the extent of the people she inadvertently hurt the day before. She went for clean knockouts, aiming to not break or fracture any bones. A task that was actually quite challenging. <br/><br/>Grinning slightly as the last body hit the floor, America gazed around the lobby at the mess. Despite her holding back, the elegantly furnished room was now trashed. She sighed slightly, before catching sight of a receptionist who was proceeding to creep out from behind the pillar where she had been hiding. <br/><br/>“Don’t worry <span class=""bb-i"">Chica</span>.” America spoke calmly as she began to back away towards the window. “I’m good for the damages.”<br/><br/>With that, she turned in a flash, before bursting forward into the air and through the window. Shaking the shards of glass from the window off of her as she moved, America Chavez soared up the side of the building, building in speed as she did so. Just before she reached the penthouse floor, she changed directionally slightly, causing her to rocket in through the penthouse’s bay windows as she reached them. The room shook slightly as she landed, cracking the floor slightly, as well as causing all of the inhabitants of the room to lurch forward in shock and confusion. This gave her time to survey the room. The first thing she noticed was the lack of her telepathic buddy, Quentin Quire. It would seem that she had beaten his elevator here. Damn she was good. The next thing that came to mind was the security. Three guards, all with their weapons out, similar to those whom she had just pummelled to a heap around twenty floors below. Between them at a glass desk sat the man from the billboard and the one whom America was after. Derek Bishop. <br/><br/>By now the guards had recovered from the shock of a beautiful Amazonian woman bursting in the room from the window, and at once opened fire on the intruder. <br/><br/>“Bad move, assholes.” <br/><br/>America moved forwardly swiftly, the gunfire reflecting off her arms with ease. She swung her arm up rapidly as she approached her target, knocking the gun from his hand and high into the air. Grabbing the man’s shoulders, she used him to propel herself upwards, push the security guard to the floor in the process. Spinning in the air, America kicked the gun as it began its decent, straight towards one of the other two guards. The force of the gun knocked the man off his feet and into the other guard behind him. Before they could get back up however, Ms America was upon them, launching them both into a heap on the floor with a few final blows from her fists. <br/><br/>As America readjusted herself after the conflict, a large ding could be heard throughout the room. Both America and Derek, whom was now crouching slightly behind his desk in a pathetic attempt to hide, turned to watch as the elevator door slid open. Out stepped Quentin who appeared to have been expecting the worse when those doors opened, evident by the fact that he was holding the gun he had found previously out in front of him in a somewhat menacing manor. The look of determination dropped from his face however when his eyes laid upon America and the bodies around her.<br/><br/>“Jesus Christ…” He murmured moving forwards. “Am I even needed here?” <br/><br/>“We’re not done yet, Quire. We still…”<br/><br/>“Yes, you’re certainly not done yet.” The two turned as Derek spoke, his voice echoing confidently through the penthouse. Despite how he had previously appeared hiding behind the desk, the business man now circled his desk, before leaning against it casually. He continued. “You’ve yet to meet my partner in all of this…”<br/><br/>Before America or Quentin could do anything, the man had clapped his hands. At once the world around them seemed to lurch for a second, before a flash of light appeared in the room. Just as quickly as it had started, everything went back to normal, with a strangely dressed man remaining where the light had been. <br/><br/>“May I present to you…” Derek spoke proudly as he came to stand next to his partner. “Pusher Man!”<br/><br/><img src=""http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/8/8d/Pusher_Man.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20121019015804""/><br/><br/>“Yo dawgs.

The few weeks he spent at the Xavier School as a teen were more than enough to prepare him for his solo adventures as a costumed hero in NYC. Warren flew up into the clouds, seeing the sun. Diving back down into the concrete jungle he darted and dipped through skyscrapers and eventually flew past the Statue of Liberty. The muscles in his wings were at their peak, lifting his over two hundred pound body with ease. Warren heard an airplane overhead, it seemed to be smoking and upon flying closer Archangel met what would become his first superhuman enemy. <br/><br/>A winged monster of a man known as the Griffin had attacked the plane and done damage to one of the turbines. Warren tried to get in close and take the monster down, however the tail of the beast swiped Archangel clear out of the entrance Griffin had torn into the side. The mutant hero recovered in seconds and managed to get into the plane.<br/><br/>""You thought you could run from ME?!?"" the monster screamed at a man in a business suit as the people all around were panicking. <br/><br/>When the villain saw the hero had made an entrance, he threw him off guard. Griffin simply tossed a civilian out of the plane after ripping them out of their seatbelt. <br/><br/>""YOU need to leave ME alone!"" Griffin screamed as Archangel dived out of the hole in the plane after the blonde female in a Rolling Stones t-shirt. <br/><br/>""This day isn't going how I planned at all..."" Warren thought, ""but at least I get to rescue a damsel in distress every so often.""<br/><br/>""I'VE GOT YOU!"" he shouted over the woman who was already mid-scream herself.<br/><br/>The hero sat her down on a nearby rooftop and flew back into the sky after the plane. On his way back up he tore the tin roof off a shed on another rooftop. By the time he'd made it to the plane Griffin was already miles ahead of him in the sky with the businessman he was shouting at now in the talons of the monster's feet. Warren used the piece of tin and patched the hole somewhat where Griffin ripped the door off and ran for the front of the plane. <br/><br/>""You need any help flying this bird, Captain?"" he yelled at the door.<br/><br/>""I think I can land her in a nearby airfield. What do we call you, Birdman?"" the pilot shouted back.<br/><br/>""You can call me Archangel."" Warren stated with a grin moving the tin and dipping out of the man made entrance/exit. <br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Sighing angry to himself as he finally pulled off the remaining glove on his good hand. Throwing it away violently, grunting and immediately hurting in his bad arm from the movement.<br/><br/>""Piece of shit!"" Tony grunted frustrated to say the least. With the fear subsiding Tony was in his own mind in a bad place. The suit went from being a success to a critical failure in a matter of hours. Sure he wasn't really prepared for taking on Tarene, and whatever that hammer that now sits in the middle of his reception room is packs a much bigger punch than he previously thought. Still he designed the suit to take on anything, and it failed horribly. He glanced up at the two SHIELD agents as they started to wheel him out of the area.<br/><br/>""Hey if the helicarrier is high enough to not be considered in US territory can you guys slip me some booze? I've never drank before but this feels like a great time to start..."" Tony asked glancing over at them, before seeing out of the corner of his eye James Rhodes coming up to him with Pepper next to him.<br/><br/>""Swear to God James if you so much as hint to saying 'I told you so' you're fired. I know its probably illegal to fire someone over that but I'll figure out a way to do it!"" Tony though sighed, his hand coming up to his eyes and covering them.<br/><br/>""I'm not going to say it..."" James assured his young boss. ""Hell I'm willing to wager that was one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't situations.""<br/><br/>""Tony don't be too hard on yourself about this. No one could of possibly seen this coming."" Pepper tried to assure Tony. Which only reminded him of something as he glanced over at the God nearby.<br/><br/>""Well almost no one..."" Tony casually stated.<br/><br/>It was still morning, but Loki just knew that today was going to be a very, very long day.<br/><br/>The confrontation with Tarene had been something that he had known would have to come to a head sooner or later, but even he hadn't expected it to go down the way that it had. Granted there were much different, worse ways that it could have gone and the fact that there was now one less person out there that wanted him dead because he was able to talk them down made him feel better good about the whole thing but the fact that innocent people were hurt in the process...<br/><br/>Walking towards the stretcher that one Tony Stark was currently laid out on, Loki offered those standing around it a respectful nod of his head before he started talking. ""It's good to see you again Tony... Though I cannot help but feel that if our track record of meeting each other before or while shit like this is going down continues, SHIELD is going to formally ask us to stop having these little get togethers."" While the greeting was rather upbeat and with good cheer, the smile quickly faded as Loki actually started to look rather awkward as he started to shuffle his feet.<br/><br/>""For what it's worth, I really am sorry that this whole situation came about. While I was well aware that Tarene would be coming after me with a nearly mindless vengeance and that I would have had to face her sooner rather then later, I didn't foresee her being this reckless and stupid in her desire to track me down. As far as I am concerned I owe you, your friend here-"" A nod was sent in the way James, even if Loki didn't actually know his name ""- and this rather fetching young lady whom I remember from the charity event but whom I didn't actually get the pleasure of being introduced to due to the arrival of giant snakes,-"" Unlike her male companions, Ms Pots was gifted with a smile that Loki reserved only for people whom he was actually pleased to be introduced too ""big time after you got needlessly caught up in my mess. How you feeling Stark?"" <br/><br/>""Oh trust me, I could live a long happy life if I never see you again..."" Tony stated with a sarcastic grin as he looked over at the guy who has been a weird constant the last two days. He quickly realized how bad he sounded considering Loki did just save his life from the crazy lady with the hammer. So he sighed, closing his eyes and shaking his head.<br/><br/>""No I mean seriously. I owe you my life man. I would've been smashed in blood and guts if you hadn't shown up."" Tony was still seriously smarting from the battle itself as he readjusted himself very carefully on the stretcher. Because there was possible damage to the elbow his bad arm was carefully put into a straight position and, assuming Tony could even move it at the moment, meant to stay that way.<br/><br/>James returned the respected nod to Loki before extending out a hand. ""James Rhodes, former US Marine."" It was an introduction he could recite in his sleep.<br/><br/>""And royal pain in my ass..."" Tony quipped which got him a mean look from James.<br/><br/>""Tony, may I remind you of the horrible pain I can put you in if I so much as poke that arm?"" James asked, with an evil grin and a finger extended skyward to do the honors if Tony chose his next words poorly.<br/><br/>""Oh no no no I'm good sorry..."" Tony meekly let out.<br/><br/>Pepper though smiled as well at Loki's greeting to her. The man certainly knew how to charm and he was quite handsome, she didn't see the look Tony gave her and Loki when he realized she was looking into his eyes. ""Very nice to meet you, Pepper Potts."" She told him, giving him a polite nod of the head.<br/><br/>""If I may Mr. Rhodes and Ms. Potts."" A SHIELD agent had arrived over, in a suit with an ear piece and shades on. Toned in what seemed like a Hispanic heritage. ""I don't mean to interrupt things but Mr. Fury wanted me to rely some information over since we have the both of you available. Agent Sam Wilson is going to be running a super powered operative soon, and Fury was interested in the both of you cooperating if you would.""<br/><br/>Tony just glanced at the man for a moment wondering if the man's glasses meant he was blind or something. Tony Stark was laying on a stretcher, having his ass just pounded into him by some crazy lady with a hammer. Now all of the sudden Fury wants him to be in some big Government group? ""Tell Fury to just get me Victoria and I'll think about it."" Tony sighed irritated, and right now the farthest thing from his mind was doing anything else with that God awful suit. The agent gestured to some others. The other two nodded and they helped wheel Tony Stark out of the building to awaiting medical attention.<br/><br/>While the introductions were brief they were respectful and were a solid foundation upon which to build up something more. Loki couldn't help but note that Ms Pots had actually looked him in the eyes and presented herself rather well; A woman of strong will that hadn't even began to come into her own if he was any judge of character. Only time would tell what she would become through.<br/><br/>Glancing towards the as of yet unnamed Shield agent that had been the messenger of the so called 'Mr. Fury', Loki actually seemed rather relaxed and carefree while his brain processed the information that a super powered team was being formed; While Tony had lost the fight against a Mjolnir empowered Tarene he had lasted much, much longer then any natural human had any real right too and Loki suspected that was largely because Tony hadn't expected someone like Tarene to come after him so soon. Not a bad person to work beside...<br/><br/>Turning to the SHIELD agent fully, Loki tilted his head as he made the counter offer ""I would like to meet with this Mr. Fury before I make any commitment to this team of his. I'm sure he wouldn't have any objections to that.""      <br/></div>"

In the past year, in response to the maggia ‘civil war’ that happened since the Kingpin’s abdication due to the poor health of his wife, a shadowy figure had launched a one-man war against the contending crime-lords.  While details are sketchy and uncertain, those maggia thugs that were his victims called him <span class=""bb-i"">‘The Rider’</span>.  Although normally it would be almost impossible for anyone to track this shadowy figure, fortunately for Spider-Man and Iceman, there was a rumor circling around that the Hammerhead faction of the maggia was planning something big that night.  Hopefully for Spider-Man and Iceman, this will also draw out this so-called ‘Rider’.<br/><br/>	Once the two superhumans arrived at the site where Hammerhead’s forces were supposed to be at that moment, they discovered that all the maggia goons had been mopped up by someone.  After searching the area, the two teenagers stumbled upon another caped crusader.  The man wore a black cape that shrouded his figure.  Black and gray armor, including greaves, gauntlets, and  spaulders, covered his body, while a black hood shrouded his face.  Beneath the black hood, one could see red eyes glowing.<br/><br/>	“Who are you supposed to be?  The love child of Darth Vader and Shredder?”  Spider-Man taunted this shadowy figure, assuming that this costumed crime-fighter was “The Rider”.<br/><br/>“Ooh, good burn!” Bobby jutted in cockily, cracking his frosty knuckles in an attempt to show the rider that he was about to receive a whuppin’.<br/><br/>	“If you’re looking for a tutelage, you’ve come out here for nothing because I don’t let twelve-year olds run around me with.”  The man said.  The man's voice was scrambled by some type of device that prevented his voice from betraying his identity.<br/><br/>""Oh, that's good to know that you're not a pediphile.  But what about sixteen year old girls?""<br/><br/>	""Not even if she were the daughter of the Captain of the NYPD or the Commissioner.”  Rider turned away from the two teenagers, believing that they were not a threat to him.  However, what the Rider had said did not settle well with Peter.  Even though there was no way that this ‘caped crusader’ knew anything about Peter’s old relationship with Gwen Stacy, nevertheless, it still felt like a dig towards him.  Spider-Man shot a webline at the Rider and yanked him back towards himself and Iceman.<br/><br/>	“Tell us where she is!”  Spider-Man yelled at the man whom he had just dragged back to where he and Iceman were standing.  “I saw you take her!  You cannot fool me!”<br/><br/>	“Kid.”  The Rider said as he got to his feet.  “You just made a grave mistake.”  At that moment, the Rider slammed a pellet onto the ground, causing first a bright flash that momentarily distracted Iceman and Spider-Man.  Then, a cloud of smoke arose from that spot, shrouding the immediate vicinity, which limited both Spider-Man and Iceman’s visibility (although it would not negate Spider-Man’s spider sense).  Now Spider-Man and Iceman have to pay special attention to their surroundings, lest  the Rider somehow catch them off guard.<br/><br/>	Bobby coughed loudly as he accidently inhaled the smoke. Things were just going from bad to worse. At once, Bobby flexed his ice covered arms, causing small shards of ice to burst out of them, jutting out of his body for extra protection. Rubbing his hands together, the young mutant shifted around until he found himself standing back to back with his web-slinging partner. <br/><br/>	“I’ve got your back, Spidey” Bobby whispered just loud enough for Peter to hear. <br/><br/>	As he spoke, Bobby concentrated on the ground around him for a moment. A small layer of frost began to spread out around, with the smoke around them turning into more of an icy mist. Did this fool seriously expect to stop them with a simple smoke grenade? Bobby had been in snowstorms much worse than this before!<br/><br/>	For a moment, nothing happened.  The two teenagers stood their ground, waiting on whatever move this costumed vigilante decided to initiate next.  It almost seemed as if this so-called 'Rider' had used the smoke grenades as a distraction to cover his escape.  However, Peter and Bobby were not that lucky.<br/><br/>	All of a sudden, the caped crusader leaped out from the cover of the smoke cloud.  He pressed his palms against the two teenagers' heads and tried to slam their heads together.  If the dark cloaked had been able to carry through with his attack, then he might have incapacitated the two teenagers, or at least daze them for several moments.  However, his Spider Sense allowed Peter to slide his head to the side so that his head would not strike Bobby’s.<br/><br/>	Stumbling backwards as he recovered from the attack, Bobby took a deep breath before reinforcing his raised fist with yet another layer of ice. Charging forward towards the ‘Rider’, Bobby swung his arm forward, only to narrowly miss the vigilante who had darted backwards with ease. In retaliation, the Rider sprung forward himself, parrying yet another strike from Iceman before launching his own fist out.<br/><br/>	The punch winded the young hero, with the hit shattering the ice on Bobby’s stomach slightly. He collapsed to his knees, coughing slightly. This seriously wasn’t going well.<br/><br/>	“Okay, the kiddie gloves are coming off”. Peter exclaimed as he saw the Rider easily parry and counter Bobby’s attack.  Peter leapt towards the caped crusader and unleashed an assault of punches and kicks against him.  As each of the combatants kept blocking one another’s blows, their fight seemed to have become a delicate dance.  Whoever made the first mistake would give the victory to his opponent.  Peter could not believe that this man could keep up with him.  As a result, Peter concluded that he either had superhuman abilities or he was secretly the Batman.<br/><br/>	While this stalemated fight continued, a red concussion blast struck the ground in between the two fighters, which caused Peter and the Rider to disengage from one another in order to see what, or rather who, was the source of the ruby blast.  When Peter looked up towards the source of the projectile, he saw a man in a blue and yellow suit standing on the top of a nearby rooftop, who wore a golden visor that had a ruby tinted glass covering his eyes.  He had just pulled his fingers away from the side of the visor, which had triggered the blast.<br/><br/>	“We need a word with you, Spider-Man.”  Cyclops shouted down towards Peter.</div>"

He just lowered his head towards her, then moved a hand towards her and gave her a slight push to make her lose her balance and fall off the sword. The meaning was clear. With that he turned and roared towards the Heli-Carrier as he ran and then jumped into the air. The pilots of the Quinjets looked in shock as the monster moved higher than they were, before crashing down hundreds of metres away. The snow was thrown in all directions as a small crater was formed before he was up again. Bounding from one spot to the next. It wasn't entirely clear how long he kept going. The Quinjets lost sight of him quickly however, the radar of the Heli-carrier lost him shortly after that. He kept going, deeper and deeper into the wilderness.<br/><br/>Until, he could go no more.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Hulk. You lied to me, you've just proven how dangerous you are.

There's no proof Loki was an actual Villain. All we have is the word of some hammer wielding woman who seems to be on a run for vengeance with no regard for a body count.

I'll probably let you do a few, I trust your judgement after all.""<br/><br/>He sat back and kicked his legs out. Taking this rare chance at relaxing between the end of a mission and his next one, or being sent for some R&amp;R. ""In terms of the Stark kid... I'm really only looking for a technical consultant.

She sprung up onto all fours, before narrowing her eyes towards the dog. Even Magzi Trolls disliked some odors.

X-51 mentioned as machines folded out of hidden compartments in his back creating more chrome plated looking mechanics with purple trim and glowing effects. <br/><br/>Attaching himself to the back end of the star cruiser the energy boost was quite a bit to take on but the Machine Man steadied himself. The passengers on the inside didn't all brace for the jump in speed and it caught at least one of them off guard. X-51 pushed himself to the limits knowing that whatever was creating the trail that trashed Knowhere was coming closer. And then he felt a different type of energy signature. More familiar. The enemy was near and another nearby world was also trashed. The ship slowed down as X-51 folded his thrusters into the back compartments near his robotic shoulder blades. Coming back into the hub of the Shockwave Rider he could see it in the dog's face as well. Cosmo knew what they were up against now as well. <br/><br/>""Nova, the ones who are responsible for this... they are Kree."" X-51 stated, ""The energy trail we have been following threw me off, they are piloting a newer model Kree warship. However, I can sense their biology from within the vehicle.

She stated as she turned to look up at the Nova.<br/><br/>Mexxa just turned to look at Gunna and smiled before turning back around to face the machine man as he entered again. ""We need to stop this, not just the war but the weapon and the Kree behind this needs to be brought to justice. None of you need to help. This is something that needs to be done and none of you owe anyone anything."" She placed a hand on Gunnas shoulder.<br/><br/>""War is bad, but so is death. I don't want to see any of you hurt, or worse.""<br/><br/>Gunna eyes narrowed beneath her troll fur headpiece at the remark. She didn't want to see any of them hurt? The thought nearly made Gunna laugh. She was from Asgard. She had been raised by the most fearsome bunch of trolls to ever travel those hills. She could take care of herself. <br/><br/>""The Kree does not possess technology enough to destroy my body, I will not let you fight alone, Nova."" X-51 spoke up, ""And if my scanners are accurate, the Troll's weapon can pierce even a Celstial. The odds are in our favor.""<br/><br/>At the mention of her weapon, Gunna proceeded to let go of the Nova's leg, with the young Asgardian proudly waving the axe madly above her head once more.

Maria’s brows narrowed and her cheeks rose in agitation as she slammed her foot down in Hank’s apartment in New York City trying to stop his childish outburst. The apartment was not particularly lavish and it was only accented by her frustration of how her supposed boyfriend was keeping his apartment; open containers of sugar on the <span class=""bb-i"">floor</span>, a broken sink that he still hadn’t gotten to, and various other issues that just pointed to the man’s lack of giving a shit entirely.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">...I’m sorr—</font>” Hank let out an exhausted chuckle.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“Augh!

The twenty-four year old knew that his girlfriend was going to be pissed with him and probably for more than a standard business week. He shook his head, that was the kind of shit that got him in trouble with his sister when they were younger-- one stupid joke led to one swift punch and Hope knew how to throw punches. His girlfriend however was less of the hitting type to tell him he was an idiot and more of the ‘I’m going to leave and not talk to you for a week because I think you laughed at me and thus belittled my entire existence’ type. Honestly after this relationship he found his sister so much more endearing. Definitely preferred the punching.<br/><br/>He took another breath as he turned to his kitchen as he tapped a small watch on his wrist. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">You can come out now, she’s gone.</font>” He muttered as a small group of ants emerged from their hiding places.<br/><br/>Well, his girlfriend was kind of right about the whole ants thing.

What was interesting about her though was the badge, it stood out to Hank after dealing with several paperwork with his father as well as his own misadventures in Europe; a badge that belonged to an agency of great note— one he recognized. <span class=""bb-i"">SHIELD.</span><br/><br/>“Henry Pym Jr. I presume?”<br/><br/>Hank could feel his throat swell and his heart tick. “<font color=""#c24641"">No, I’m Tony Stark. He lives a few doors down, you can’t miss him.</font>”<br/><br/>“Very funny. But we need to have a conversation. About <span class=""bb-i"">Ant-Man</span>.”<br/><br/>Hank could feel his nerves twist as he walked forward, closing the door behind him. Normally a person would slam the door on the government agent if they were nervously in the same situation yet he did rather the opposite. He bit his lip as he decided how best to handle the situation presented to him. Perhaps locking him out of his apartment wasn’t the smartest of steps but then again this government agent in front of him looked like she could kick open a shitty apartment door open with little effort. Which brought him to his current thought: how the hell did the government find him out? Sure, “Ant-Man” had gotten a bit of publicity after the incident but it wasn’t like his identity was out there.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">Well, I guess the cat is out of the bag, huh.</font>”<br/><br/>“Not yet.

Weakened physically and now mentally. She could only watch on helplessly as Hulk launched himself into the atmosphere. Her vision became blurred as the Quinjet came into view. An exhausted exhale escaped her rosy lips in the form of a sigh. Feeling the cold underneath her body as she lay in stillness. Just what was her purpose here anyway? She had been sent these powers by the Gods to help people. And those she tried to help, did not want it.<br/><br/>First there was Victor von Doom. He could care less if she were to help him or not. And then there was Loki. Whom she recognised, it was more than a coincidence that he showed up, so he must be the real deal. And from what she knew of him, he wasn't a very nice person either. He had betrayed her in the past and would probably do so again. And now Hulk. He made it perfectly clear she was not welcome. It was getting an all too familiar feeling.<br/><br/>Was there nobody at all out there who would be happy to see Victoria Parrington or even Sigyn? Captain America was god knows where, Tony and Pepper had no time for her and you know what they say about 'three's a crowd'. And she didn't even know about her step-cousin, Thor, even existing at all. And she never had the chance to bond with Tarene. She drifted into a deep sleep thinking only that this was going to be the way she was going to die. Cold and alone. Just like she had done so before this new mortal life.<br/><br/>The Quinjet touched down a few meters away and Maria Hill came running out to Val's side. She checked her bloodied neck for a pulse. She was still alive. Maria called over the other two agents to help her move the Asgardian female to the jet and take her to the medical bay aboard the Heli-carrier. Victoria's body had healed over but the energy it took to do so had its toll on her soul. <br/><br/>-------------<br/><br/>Hours Later...<br/><br/>Valkyrie slowly opened her eyes to a bright light that dimmed eventually to reveal a white-out ceiling. She leaned up slowly and held her forehead, feeling a little light headed. Once her composure was gained, she gazed her surroundings to find she was back at SHIELD HQ in their medical bay. She sighed as she had hoped to wake up somewhere else. She began to feel trapped here. She wanted to wake up as someone else entirely. She was getting tired of being tossed to the sidelines like she were scraps for the dogs. <br/><br/>And then she had a visitor at her door. She looked over when she felt a strange presence enter. She laid eyes on the emerald clad blonde who she had seen before at the Parrington charity ball. Amora. <br/><br/>“You...” Valkyrie gritted her teeth in resentment at what she did to her parent's home and the fact she tried to kill her. <br/><br/>“I come in peace!” Amora held up her hands. Sigyn had always been a soft touch on giving people second chances and hearing them out. It was any wonder how she had gotten inside the HQ without SHIELD even knowing. But she was never really there. She was using a projection like her former Master Loki could do. And Valkyrie had figured that, so attacking an apparition that only she could see would do no good. So she regarded Amora with annoyance. <br/><br/>Was this all the friends she had right now? The only one who wanted to speak with her, or wanted her help specifically in this case, was an old enemy from the past. How the tides had turned. <br/><br/>Amora walked over slowly to the brunette and sat on the edge of the bed. “So. Sigyn. Have you remembered more about yourself?”<br/><br/>“I'm not Sigyn anymore..” Victoria glared at the blonde. <br/><br/>“Ah but to me, you will <span class=""bb-i"">always</span> be sweet little Sigyn.” Amora smiled. “I apologise for my...rashness earlier. It wasn't really meant for you. I got so blinded by hatred for that weasel Loki that I took it out on you too. I must remember that you were always a good friend to me in Asgard. You listened to my woes, fought by my side and made me laugh.”<br/><br/>Victoria's glare softened into a melancholy daze. In this state, she was easily manipulated. And that was Amora's chance to strike, an <span class=""bb-i"">attempt</span> at getting to the very formidable Valkyrie before SHIELD could. “I'm putting together a little team. Ladies only. Aren't you just sick of being let down by the men in your life?” Valkyrie certainly knew that all too well. She had her attention as she listened. Amora's grin grew darker by the second. “We could travel the stars, putting the wrongs that men have caused, to right. Restore order where there is none. It will be a fun adventure, just us girls. We can't trust the opposite sex to do right by us.” The Enchantress was certainly painting a pretty picture for the Goddess of Fidelity. <br/><br/>Valkyrie blinked at Amora, who then smiled warmly at her old friend. “Think about it...” She put a hand on her hand gently, it felt like a gentle feather as she only felt her soul essence. And then in a flash Amora was gone. Of course Amora only wanted the strongest females to turn them into femme fatales so that they could go around dominating males into submission. But Victoria was nothing like that. She didn't HATE men. But, she was so lonely that Amora's offer seemed awfully tempting. She turned her head to view the outside world, something she used to do with joy but all she felt inside was...numb. <br/><br/>A chance to travel the cosmos. A chance to have a companion. Someone who actually wanted her by their side. A small smile began to form on her face. She remembered laughing and joking with Amora in Asgard as Sigyn. Now only a former shell of that Asgardian beauty. She just couldn't remember her last fateful days, dying at the hand of the God Ares whilst protecting Gaia and the children imminently before the Ragnarok. Ares was one who had taken complete advantage of that event. The memories were just too painful that her mind had forcefully blocked it out. <br/><br/>Could this be the beginning of an exciting new adventure? She really did wonder. But soon the news would reach her about Tony. And Amora may lose her opportunity after all.<br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nghSDN-aJbo&amp;list=PL9e0-I9ArbZBh1-mF8Z26PFL3VqU9yz6s&amp;index=19"" rel=""nofollow"">I'll protect with my life...</a></div>"

Panting heavily, clutching at the snow before rolling onto his side. The transformation always took a toll on his body. How could it not, the bigger toll was on his mind. He couldn't entirely be sure if Hulk had given up control over what had happened or if he had taken it back but something <span class=""bb-i"">bad</span> had happened and Hulk had been the one to do it. So much for any possibility of trust between the two of them, there was no chance he'd be letting Hulk out again. It was back to trying to work on the cure. He turned around eyes wide as he heard footsteps behind him.<br/><br/>He sighed as he realized there was no-one there. Just a figment of his imagination, what wasn't was the cold. Standing up he hugged his torso as the cold bit at him, his feet were already numb. At least he didn't have to worry about any permanent damage he was sure that if it came to that no doubt the Hulk would take over to preserve them both. It wasn't exactly a re-assuring thought, he'd rather pass away than let Hulk out again. That was why he needed the cure, so he could get rid of the Hulk and finally atone for his sins. He looked around, deep in a forest and he sighed. Picking a direction at random he walked.<br/><br/>The snow crunched under his feet, eventually the cold began to cause pain but he refused to give into it. He rubbed his hands up and down his arms to try and bring heat back into them and he continued to walk. As night came in the temparature dropped even lower and he fell to his knees. Then he heard the truck, there must have been a road nearby. Renewed vigor he stood and ran, half stumbling, towards the noise. Coming out suddenly on a road to see the tail end of a truck speeding away around a corner. He collapsed, only just managing to stop his face hitting the tarmac with his hands as he passed into darkness.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Beep,beep,beep,beep,beep...</span><br/><br/>The sound of his heartbeat woke up up, or the sound of the EKG did at least. He sat up with a start, he was in a hospital bed. Warm, clothed. There was a tube running into his arm and the unmistakable patch of where blood was drawn. The heartrate on the machine sped up, until he took a deep breath. <span class=""bb-i"">Calm it down Bruce, this is a hospital.</span> Removing the covers he found himself in a hospital gown, turning over to the side he placed his feet on the cold floor and winced slightly.<br/><br/>They were still a bit tender. He took a couple of small light steps before he walked over to the door and opened it, looking around. He turned to the right as he walked out of the room, first things first. He needed to find that blood sample and destroy it. Secondly he'd need to leave before S.H.I.E.L.D or General Ross turned up looking for him. No doubt they'd still be actively monitoring to try and find out where he was. A nurse noticed him, and he dropped his head as he heard her. ""Sir! Excuse me?! Sir!"" He turned to face her and smiled. ""Can I help you?""<br/><br/>""Sir, you can't be walking right now. We need to run more tests and then take some details."" Bruce just flashed a smile, removing the hand she had put on his shoulder. ""No, really I'm fine. What I need to do is destroy that blood sample that you took. Where can I find it?"" She gave him a perplexed look, as she then looked around for a member of security. ""It's fine, don't worry. You see-"" He thought about it for a minute. His circumstances of being found were somewhat suspicious, so he'd already likely be getting monitored right now. ""-I'm a member of S.H.I.E.L.D. Have you heard of them?"" She shook her head, still looking around for someone to come to her aid. ""That's a good thing, spy stuff. Listen, if you help me it'd be greatly appreciated. I was injected with a substance, I need the sample to find out what it is.""<br/><br/>""Sir, we've got Doctors for that."" He smiled, placing his hand on her shoulder. ""Please, take me to it. You can even have the Doctor there who usually handles these things. I'll go over with it with him, prove that I know what I'm talking about. How does that sound?"" She nodded and then signalled a corridor with her arm, before turning him down the corridor. ""Okay... but just because I don't want to get int rouble with the authorities."" He smiled, no doubt S.H.I.E.L.D would learn that he had been here, but by the time they got here the trail would be cold. He'd be long gone.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d2/ThunderboltRoss.jpg""/></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""WHERE IS SHE?""</span> Ross tormed down a corridor, he was a man on a mission. He was also pissed and that much was obvious. ""Sir, you can't be down here."" If looks could kill, Ross would have killed the man. <span class=""bb-b"">""The hell I can't.

Ross pointed to a random Agent. <span class=""bb-b"">""You! Where's Agent Parrington?""</span> The Agent merely raised her arm and pointed to a nearby door. He walked over to it, hitting the opening panel. Being a medical bay the door opened without hesitation.<br/><br/>There she was. He was slightly stricken by her beauty, as most mortal men were, that and the wings anyway. Though he quickly composed himself and pointed and accusing finger at her. <span class=""bb-b"">""What the <span class=""bb-i"">HELL</span> do you think you were doing? You had him. You had him dead to rights and let him go?! What was that about? And don't tell me you just fainted, I don't believe that for a second. If you think Maria Hill can cover for you you're solely mistaken.</span><br/><br/>He pulled out a cigar from one of his many pockets, lit it and shoved it in his mouth. The rush of nicotine doing little to calm him down. <span class=""bb-b"">""You let that monster go. We <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> him. You know what else? Our satellite tracking for him has been hacked, destroyed, caput. We have <span class=""bb-i"">NO</span> idea where he is or what he is doing. You realize how long it took us to develop that? Almost as long as that monster has been out there.</span><br/><br/>He took a file that had been under his arm and threw it onto her bed. [b]""Sure he saved you but look at that, my Daughter after that thing almost killed her. The scientists he was working with. He tested a bomb, and the monster he became is far more powerful. Flick through it, see the damage he has done. Anything from now on that's on you.""[b]<br/><br/>He rubbed the bridge of his nose. <span class=""bb-b"">""I know Fury has plans for you, some form of Initiative. Though next time we track this beast down, know that you're going to be there with my men.""</span></div>"

Through two meetings with shareholders, coffee with his gorgeous secretary, all day he dipped in and out thinking about taking down supervillains. And this other guy with wings, ""is <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> my arch enemy now?"" he thought. <br/><br/>Walking through the busy cubicles towards the other main entrance of his office, Warren continued to think about superfluous things...<br/><br/>""I wonder why it's pronounced ark-angel but then not ark-enemy. Why's it have to be arch? Have I been saying that wrong or something? I need to play on Google for awhile and see if I can find anything on that guy yesterday.

Two photos in five different newspapers, and just three articles. One from about a month ago dated July 7th, 2012, and two from yesterday. <br/><br/>""So... they're calling him Griffin. The only other thing worth noting is the guy abducted yesterday on the plane was some lawyer named Henry Epson. Now is when I wish I had a more tech savvy sidekick and a little more back-up.

The police had already been to both locations. The office was trashed but not his home. Maybe Archangel could find something there if he does enough digging. The man lived alone. The toilet seat was up in his one bedroom apartment. And there's a cellphone blinking under a t-shirt in the bedroom. <br/><br/>""A lawyer actually forgot his phone and the cops didn't notice?"" he asked himself.<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

She didn’t need this on top of everything else. As his voice blared and droned on, she seemed to have a glazed look about her. In that what he was saying seemed to be going in one ear and out the other. She finally addressed him after throwing in his two penneth worth. Gone was that look of compassion and warmth she usually gave to people. Gone was that weak little Sigyn that took a beating from just about everyone who wanted to use her power in the past.  <br/><br/>“Firstly. I’ll have you know, that The Hulk is not a monster.” Her eyes glinted with a fiery resolve behind them that could pierce through the hardest of defenses. But that fire only made her all the more beautiful to those who could not have her. “Second. Hulk doesn’t even know what he is doing half the time in that enraged state. And third.” She picked up the file on the bed and threw it back in his face. “The only monsters I see around here - are power hungry humans hell bent on prodding him with sticks until he is provoked into doing something he cannot control. Like the New York incident...” Her tone was dominant and stubborn, like that of a true Asgardian Princess. <br/><br/>She grew tired of people trying to use The Hulk for their own gains. She knew exactly how that felt. She had been used and abused and tossed away like a discarded rag doll. She could care less if the General thought he had caught Banner and blamed Valkyrie for “letting him go”. They weren’t going to get through to anyone that way. If only they would try to merely understand him. Then perhaps they would not be in this mess in the first place. Mankind always feared what it did not understand. And what they feared became under lock and key or poked at until they broke it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“The New York incident is <span class=""bb-i"">exactly</span> what I am talking about! Look what he did, the damage he did. All because some would be heroes decided to jump in and interfere with an ongoing military operation. Do I want to understand him? Sure. I want to understand how he works so that we can perfect him. He was a lab accident, he’s dangerous. A threat to everyone including himself.”</span> he tipped the ash of his cigar onto the floor.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“I thought you were different Miss.Parrington. You get all the other heroes roaming around out there. Thinking they’re gods gift to the world, ones like <span class=""bb-i"">Captain America.</span> I thought you would be different. I thought being… whatever you are you’d understand our need to contain him. I guess I was wrong.”</span> He moved over to the bed, picking up the file that he had dumped on the bed.<span class=""bb-b"">“I will catch him Miss Parrington, I will find out what makes him work. I will be the one to make the US.Army peacekeepers of the world by turning them into super soldiers. If you interfere with my operation, I will see you removed from this organisation and jailed. Is that understood?”</span><br/><br/> “Loud and clear.” Was her glared response at the General. “Good luck with containing such a force.” She raised an eyebrow as she half smiled sarcastically. How could he even THINK of using such a deadly thing to weaponise other human beings? He was the kind of human who would let power corrupt them and hide behind the excuse of peace as a justification for such madness. People like that are what would cause the human race to destroy one another and the planet along with them. She could not abide by such actions. She would have to make sure she got to The Hulk before he did….</div>"

Her voice could be heard. ""Reed?!"" She cried out in complete shock as her clothes were seen to be floating through the air. The light waves were reflecting off of Sue's body in such a way that she wasn't visible to the naked eye. She looked down at herself, seeing nothing but her dress. In the height of confusion she panicked. ""Reed what's happening to us?!""  She looked back at him once more seeing how stretched his entire body had become. She only worried further for his well being. Were they being attacked?<br/><br/>The shock of Sue's vanishing act, even though her clothes were still there and now yelling at him in her voice. Reed though had to suddenly maintain his balance as he had an arm stretch down to the sidewalk to help him stay upright. Balancing like this was strange, feeling like his legs were stilts when he never handled his balance on them in the first place. Still it was even harder to focus since his brain was rushing through everything in his mind was going haywire with the impossibilities of what was happening to them.<br/><br/>""Uh-er...I-I don't know! Hold on."" Reed stammered in fear before re-actively grabbing Susan by her hand (At least he hoped he grabbed her hand, he couldn't tell) and started pulling her towards where the hospital was. At least to go somewhere where people wouldn't look at them with everyone in awe, shocked, and pointing out the invisible woman and the stretchy man.<br/><br/>""Something must have been with the area the transporter used and done something to us."" It wasn't just what happened to Susan and himself that worried Reed, but now the possibilities of whatever was going on with Johnny, Ben, and especially Harvey. In all his internal panic though Reed couldn't avoid the amazing scene that started and happening across the street.<br/><br/>""Johnny! JOHNNY!"" Ben screamed out as he was running after Johnny Storm, who was completely on fire and despite not really feeling any pain or burning Johnny did what came naturally in such a situation. Run frantically and scream like a girl. He saw Reed, or at least what Reed looked like after being pulled like taffy, and clothing that was floating in air. Running up Johnny let out a series of noises that could only be described at panicked talking...<br/><br/>""REED REED HOLY SHIT I'M ON FIRE AND BURNING I MEAN I DON'T THINK IT HURTS BUT HOLY SHIT FIRE WHAT THE FUCK REED YOU LOOK SCARY AS HELL WHERE'S SUE FIRE FIRE AHHHHHHHHHH!""<br/><br/>Johnny continued his frantic panic attack, now just going in circles with his arms flailing, Ben almost more just too freaked out to even speak. Just now his hands grasping at the top of his head, looking at whatever was happening in front of him in disbelief.<br/><br/>Reed, even in all the panic, knew he had to figure out how to get Johnny to stop being on fire. Quickly he glanced around and realized they were in front of the Bellagio Hotel and its large body of water. Reed stretched not realizing how effortless it was, with his body over to the water. Glancing down at his hands Reed tried to figure out how to get water from the massive body of water in front of him and at Johnny. Suddenly Reed's watched on and felt his hands grow in size, Reed almost completely fascinated by what he was doing until he had to stop and remember Johnny was running around on fire. How Reed forgot that, even briefly, he'll never know.<br/><br/>Scooping up a surprisingly large amount of water in his massive now cupped hands. Reed turned and in a huff threw the water towards Johnny. Who could only stop in his frenzy of fear to realize the large tidal wave coming towards him. Dousing him and putting out the fire on him.<br/><br/>""Oh man... thanks Reed."" Johnny sighed in relief and tired from the long distance running, both down a sidewalk, across streets, and around in circles. Reed stretched back, his hands shrinking back to normal as he also was relieved. Though it was short lived when he realized that Johnny being on fire meant to his clothes. Reed coughed awkwardly before starting to pull his shirt off. ""Uh Johnny, please cover up.""<br/><br/>Johnny needed a moment to realize what Reed was talking about, then he felt a gentle breeze on his manhood and the glaring eyes of the people around them. He quickly grabbed Reed's shirt and used it to cover as best as possible with his cheeks a surprisingly deep red. Only giving the crowds a meek grin in complete embarrassment.<br/><br/>Finally by now the embarrassment of everything subsiding the four of them were finally able to breathe. Johnny having to wrap Reed's t shirt around his waist, Susan still not visible, Reed occasionally having a limb or legs moving or stretching out in an unnatural way, Ben strangely seemed unaffected. Something that was bothering him deep down inside seeing whatever happened to the others and how it affected them. Reed though was deep in thought glancing around at them. ""Alright we need to talk to your guy's dad immediately about this. Something is clearly wrong here..."" Reed stated aloud as Johnny folded his arms, ""Oh you think!?"" He snipped at Reed, too worried about everything to even think how he was coming off saying it.<br/><br/>As Johnny snapped back at Reed though he was too busy not paying attention. He reached for his phone to call Dr. Storm to call him about this startling new development. Only he paused looking at Dr. Storm's number in his phone when he remembered what he was doing when Reed last saw him. ""Oh crap."" Reed muttered.<br/><br/>Susan went over to Johnny and touched his shoulder. “Johnny it’s me Sue I’m here! I’m just...invisible.” Her voice called out in mid air. The touch nearly scared Johnny half to death. Sue, although could not be seen, turned to Reed to watch him call her father. Three out of the four had strange symptoms and then it hit her. “Harvey!” She grabbed Johnny’s arm out of a panicked concern. What could have happened to Harvey? She worried as she pulled her brother down the road to a cab. “TAXI TAXI!!” She screamed and shoved Johnny’s arm out. Worrying about his clothing situation later. A taxi driver pulls up, looking rather confused at the three young lads and hearing a girl’s voice calling out in distress. They pile into the car, Sue in the back seat middle between Johnny and Reed as Ben got in the front. “HOSPITAL!” The girl called out and the driver raised his eyebrow. “STEP ON IT NOW!”<br/><br/>The brief pause in the confused driver caused Ben to sigh angrily, slapping a handful of money onto the driver’s dashboard.  “Here break some speed limits but just go!”  Finally the driver nodded and they were off.<br/><br/>When they got to the hospital things were chaotic to say the least.  The taxi driver peered out of the window and saw what was happening.  “Yeah you know what you four are crazy!”  The driver muttered as he shook his head and got out of there as quickly as possible.  <br/><br/>Reed couldn’t blame the guy, as even in all the commotion it wasn’t hard to figure out where Harvey was.  As a looming figure was stand well over part of the now destroyed hospital.  Reed had to slowly pull up his glasses just to make sure he wasn’t crazy when he looked at it, he was too stunned to say anything but Johnny perfectly cleared the air with what Reed was thinking.<br/><br/>Johnny simply muttered, “Holy crap… that’s Harvey?”<br/><br/>The monster, for lack of a better term, seemingly stood well over 50 feet high.  It best resembled a mixture of different animals and something served straight out of a drug fueled nightmare.  Large beady eyes with a dark green and brown mixed like hairy skin.  WIth arms disjointed and massive feet.  Seemingly things even seemed to be coming out of the creature periodically.  Its howls were terrifying as they pierced the night sky with something screeching.<br/><br/>Reed couldn’t bring himself to even move for a bit.  Glaring up at his mistakes all now a freak show that was once a good friend.  Reed couldn’t even breathe right anymore as his stammered breaths left him trying to grasp whatever he could understand about what had happened.  Finally though Johnny’s hand on his shoulder pulled him back into reality.<br/><br/>“Uh Reed I don’t mean to interrupt things but… what do we do?”  Johnny’s voice seemed a bit shook up as his fearful tone was notably rare.  Still Reed pondered the question for a moment.  Realizing in his heart that he only had one option.  Reed glanced down at his hands, clenching them before glancing back up at the monster Harvey had become, fear being over ridden by determination.<br/><br/>“I made him like that, so I’m stopping him.”  Reed told the others before stepping forward to go after it.<br/><br/>Sue’s gasp could be heard from next to Johnny. A hand reached out to grasp at Reed’s wrist. “No. We’re stopping him. Together.” Her voice was reassuring to say the least. She moved to Reed’s side and then something appeared around Sue - it was a shimmery transparent version of herself. She was just about visible to the naked eye as she concentrated her mind toward the creature that was once Harvey. Her body shimmered and the city street lights reflected off her, which is how they were seeing her now. Johnny looked even more disturbed at his sister. <br/><br/>Reed glanced back and now seeing Sue, even if it was in an interesting looking reflection of nearby lights, was reassuring and made him feel better about the daunting task ahead of them.  Smiling a bit back to her Reed breathed looking back up at the monster.<br/><br/>“Wait hold on we’re seriously not doing this are we?!”  Johnny quickly piped in wide eyed as he realized what the others were talking about and planning.  His eyes darted between Susan and Reed hoping one of them would start laughing for the sick joke.  Only getting a glance from the both of them that said everything left Johnny shaking his head in disbelief.  “Uh alright sure… commit suicide… sounds great.”  Johnny muttered shaking in fear just a little.  It only got worse when Johnny looked over to Ben for some kind of support in how insane everything is.<br/><br/>Ben was looking on at the monster, with the kind of focus in his eyes you’d only see from him on a football field.  “Yeah let's do this.”  Ben nodded to himself as he spoke.  <br/><br/>Susan felt a growing powering surge within her, an energy she’d never felt before. She saw what Reed could do, she only wondered what she could be capable of. It was time to find out. The four broke off into separate areas to counter the spawn of the gigantic creature that Harvey used to be.<br/><br/>As police were trying to keep the bystanders at bay Reed stretched his legs up around ten feet over them, walking right over them to nearby amazement.  The officers tried to warn him to not go any further but Reed was well beyond listening with his laser focus.  He had to think of a plan for how to stop Harvey,  in a way that wouldn’t kill him but at least knock him out.  Still even with the four of them and their powers, or at least what the powers appear to be at the moment.  It was a daunting task to say the least.<br/><br/>As Johnny followed suit with the others he was in a panic, especially running past cops wearing only Reed’s shirt awkwardly clenched around his waist like a weird cloth diaper.  He knew he was well past talking the others out of this and now had to figure out how to make himself burn again.  Seeing as when he did it last he never got hurt or even a little singed. So maybe he could use it again?  “Come on Johnny think think… burning… fire…”  Johnny muttered to himself as the creatures spotted them and were coming quickly.  “Uh FIRE!...  GO!  BURNING TIME!  Err…<br/><br/>Flame on!”<br/><br/>Feeling and watching the fire engulf him again Johnny chuckled awkwardly to himself as he felt some resemblance of control again.   “Alright fire!  Yeah!  TIME TO BURN YOU… UH THINGS YO…”  Before Johnny could finish his admittedly weak insult though he felt his legs slowly lose contact with the ground.  “Whoa whoa AHHH!”  Johnny lifted into the air.  But in trying to not fall started realizing he had control still.  Able to lift up higher to the sky and swoop around a little.  Now the previously nervous Johnny, soaring through the Las Vegas air, leaving a small flame trail behind him as he flew was all smiles, all confidence back, and just plain Johnny.  “WOO!  YOU GUYS SEEING THIS SHIT?!  YEAH!  TIME TO BURN THINGS!”  Johnny was screaming from the top of his lungs as he came back down, flying through a patch of the creatures which knocked him into the air in a burning explosion of bodies which disintegrated before hitting the ground.<br/><br/>Reed looked up in brief amazement.  He had to admit, he didn’t see that coming, and this whole situation, frightening though it may be, was becoming more and more fascinating by the second.  Still he had work to do and with his legs still stretched up high he clinched his hand, letting it grow again as it started to look like a mallet.  Swinging it down and through some of the creatures as they came after him.  Knocking them out hard.</div>"

She ducked but they ran past her, they couldn’t see her. She looked back up and blinked. Then she knew she could dodge them all to get to Harvey. She had to try and get through to him. Somehow. So she picked up pace and ran around these smaller hideous things. Dodging their projected pathways, she then got blocked of by ten more than broke off the giant creature and landed in her way. She felt the urge to push this surging energy outward. And so she brought up both her arms and pushed a barrier wave out into the monsters, forming a sort of bubble like effect around her. The creatures then get knocked away by the forcefield and the path was clear again. She jumped up onto the rubble and began to climb higher, not being noticed by the giant yet. She stopped as high as she could get and suddenly she reappeared. “Harvey! Harvey it’s me Sue can you hear me?!” She yelled up at the giant form that once was her friend. <br/><br/>Reed watched her now girlfriend run on ahead, including launching some kind of force field which knocked a group of the monsters over.  Reed continued keeping himself above them all, smacking them away with his enlarged mallet.  He tried to pick up the pace, though it was hard as the creatures grabbed his legs and leaving him having to swat them away.  Worse though was when he looked over and saw what was happening to Ben.<br/><br/>Sure enough the football player was practically gun ho in leaping into the fray.  Swinging haymakers left and right which were battering creatures to and fro.  However the numbers game was catching up to him and creatures began to hog pile on him as the numbers grew.  Soon Ben was seemingly gone from sight as he was swarmed.  “Ben!”  Reed called out to him trying to get over to him to save him, however he wasn’t ready for what he saw next.<br/><br/>Pieces of clothing, but more horrifyingly skin were being flung into the air as the creatures seemingly tore into Ben.  Though no blood could be seen it seemed like Ben was a long goner.  The pile on top of him though seemed to bloom upwards, and movement stirred as something bigger and bigger was inside of it all.  Suddenly though the creatures went flying.  As a massive orange monster rose up from the mess.  Reed almost went after it before he realized suddenly that it was Ben.  Certainly not Ben as he knew him.  Tufts of skin and his shirt dangled off of him as he was now a colossal seven foot tall beast that looked like an orange rock golem of mythical proportions.  Ben stood upright, his fist clinched as tightly as possible as he let out a scream that was almost primal in nature.  “Alright no more mister nice guy.  IT’S CLOBBERING TIME!”  Ben called out before he went back to striking down any monster that got in his way.  Though now any creature that his fists connected with got launched seemingly a mile away.  Plus anything that tried to slow him down seemingly got thrown farther by him grabbing hold of them and just throwing them.  Reed had to admit it was amazing to watch.  All the more so with Ben in such a zone Reed wondered if he even realized yet this strange form he had taken on.<br/><br/>Sue tried to reach out to Harvey in vain. It took one look at her and then lifted one of its arms up and smashed it down upon her, nothing but rubble lay there when it lifted its arm back up. Johnny flew past. “SUUUEE!!!” He screamed out and dive bombed a few more creatures from mid air. But then Susan reappeared with a bubble around her. She was concentrating so hard on her forcefield that her nose began to bleed. She then put her arms down and fell to one knee in exhaustion. Clearly she needed more training on her new powers to use them more efficiently without getting tired. <br/><br/>Reed finally was able to clear out the area a bit of the brainless beasts before glancing over at where Susan was down, surrounded by rubble and on one knee.  “Shit!”  Reed had to think of something quickly especially since now Harvey was spewing more of the creatures out.  Seemingly spawning them like some amphibian creature in a nasty looking display.   Johnny had flown down to fight the monsters away from Sue but Reed knew they needed a plan to end this quickly.  Glancing back up at Harvey he realized Harvey, even in this monster form.  Still had human like qualities to his shape.  Forming an idea Reed made his way over to Ben who was finishing taking out creatures around him.  “Ben I have an idea but… how strong do you feel right now?”  Reed asked, he would love to have a concrete plan but considering he just realized what was happening to Ben he could only guess what was capable.  <br/><br/>Ben glanced over at Reed with a weirdly at the moment chuckle.  “Man at this rate I’m some rock thing and I’m punching monsters that monster Harvey is crapping out I don’t even know what’s happening anymore!”  Ben’s laugh after that freaked Reed out a little.  As it seemed like his friend was enjoying this insanity just a little too much.  Then again he could only assume Ben was on some adrenaline high.<br/><br/>Reed glanced back at Harvey.  “Do you think you can throw me up at Harvey’s head?  If I can apply enough pressure I might be able to choke him enough to make him pass out.”  Reed pondered the thought to himself as he once again had to go on suspicions which made him nervous and upset.  Not having facts to go on made this very risky and normally Reed wouldn’t even consider something to brazen.  However given the situation Reed wasn’t left with much of a choice.  He got to work preparing as Ben glanced back at Harvey himself.<br/><br/>“Okay I feel pretty good right now, and even if I could throw you that far and high how am I supposed to…”  When Ben looked back at Reed he had to pause at watching Reed fold and mold himself into a ball.  Finally though you could see limbs intertwined into it, Reed had folded himself into a perfect basketball sized sphere.  He bounced in place a bit, finally hopping into Ben’s surprised grasp.  <br/><br/>“Alright I’ll give this a try… but Reed?”  Ben asked as he started to wind back for a throw.<br/><br/>Reed sighed in the mounting fear growing inside him, “Yeah?”<br/><br/>“This is beyond fucked up.”<br/><br/>“Yeah...”<br/><br/>Ben took a deep breath and lined up his target, “Alright, one fastball special coming up!”  Then with a mighty heave sent Reed in his ball shape flying through the night sky.  Reed screaming “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”  All the while as he didn’t count on just how freakishly strong Ben had become.  Finally as he got close Reed unfurled out.  Stretching out in midair to grab hold of Harvey and start wrapping around his giant mutated friend’s neck.  Trying to make it as tight as possible.  Harvey though began jostling his neck violently to try and shake Reed off.  Leaving him trying to hang on while he tightened himself harder and harder.<br/><br/>Sue looked up in horror at seeing her now boyfriend risk his life. “Oh my god REED!” She cried out in fear of his reckless action. Johnny had to keep her from running to him. “He’s got this.” He reassured his sister and she buried her head into her hands, she just couldn’t watch. She just didn’t know how to deal with the possibility of losing Reed. <br/><br/>Reed finally got himself tightened in on the throat of the mutated Harvey.  “Alright come on buddy, time for beddy-byes.”  He called out.  Slowly but surely Harvey’s hard shaking was slowing down, leaving Reed to only hope it was working.  “Go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep…”  Reed could only mindlessly drone on with as he just hoped the mutated Harvey would just pass out already.  Though in the movement slowly dwindling the monster would occasionally burst out some energy to try and fight more only for it to not work.  As Reed could feel the mutated Harvey’s heart rate slowing on being so tightly on him.  He looked up as a blinding light suddenly engulfed the scene.  Something got launched towards him and wincing away from it he realized it was some needle projectile that lodged itself into Harvey.  Causing him to cry out in pain before seemingly fading faster.  Reed felt and watched on as the monster struggled one last time before falling over.  Untangling himself and leaping away from the monster as he crashed hard onto the sandy ground.  Reed landed into the sand with an unflattering splat.  Groaning as he got up awkwardly after a moment in an almost cartoony half flattened state.<br/><br/>Sue picked up her feet and ran immediately over to Reed. She flings her arms around him, though as soft and squigy as he felt. “Reed you dumbass, what were you THINKING?” She had her angry voice now but she was actually relieved he managed to subdue Harvey, as painful as it was to see him in that state. “You were amazing though.”<br/><br/>Shaking the sand off of his head and subvertly reverting it back to normal Reed was up on his knees when Susan tackled him back to the sand.  “Yeah no I fully admit that idea was stupid…”  Reed assured Susan as he finally brought his arms up to embrace her.  Ben ran over to the both of them, causing small vibrations in the Earth with each step as he did so.  “Holy shit Reed you’re the man!”  Ben told Reed as he pointed to him.  Johnny had also shown up and landed on the sand.  “Flame off.”  He said aloud as the flames around him vanished.  “Dude Reed did you just pull some MMA shit on him?  Holy crap!”  <br/><br/>Before anyone could say anything else though a balding man in a suit came up to them.  Surrounding him were countless guys with logos on their uniforms to make each of them realize it was SHIELD.  “Reed, Susan, Jonathan, Benjamin.”  The man started with a simple tone.  “Agent Coulson, SHIELD, and I think you four have had enough excitement for the night.”<br/><br/>--------------------------------<br/><br/>“We’ve been keeping track on what happened to each of you since the incident the night before.  SHIELD has been keeping a close eye on you Mr. Richards for your experiment, and not just because of the potential if it worked…”  Coulson and his men had finished off the rest of the monsters spawned out of the mutated Harvey and on top of working to clean the damages to the hospital and surrounding area were placing the mutated Harvey into a large enough holding vessel.  “Basically we knew once things went south that we were going to be needed, maybe not to the capacity that we ended up needing too.”<br/><br/>The four were changed out of their clothes, or lack thereof in Johnny’s case, and had SHIELD issue shirts and sweat pants on as they followed Coulson in the haul of the large SHIELD transport ship.  “Uh Mr. Coulson right?”  Reed nervously started, “What about Dr. Storm?  Is he okay?”  <br/><br/>“We have your father Susan and Jonathan, his hurt but should be able to recover.”  Coulson in once again a fairly straight forward tone which made Reed a bit nervous.<br/><br/>“What about Harvey?  That thing you shot him with wasn’t lethal is it?”  Johnny piped in.<br/><br/>“No its a tranquilizer powerful enough to level a herd of elephants.  We were… saving it for something else.  But it was needed at the time, though you had an impressive modified rear naked choke going Mr. Richards if I do say so myself.”  Coulson noted with did get a nervous and brief chuckle out of Reed.  “Still we’re going to figure out a containment option for him until we can figure out if there’s a way to bring him back to normal.”<br/><br/>“Okay but what about US though is what I want to know.”  Ben looked visibly uncomfortable in the clothes he was forced into, as it was the biggest pair of shirt and sweatpants they had, and even then it didn’t leave much room for him.<br/><br/>Coulson stopped on cue and turned to the foursome, “Well while the four of you seem fine, albeit mutated a bit.  We’re going to bring the four of you back to HQ and make sure none of you will pose any threat. Which brings me to the here and now.  Protocol says we have to keep the four of you in separate containment for the night while we travel back to HQ.  Just in case any of you have any further mutations that could cause you to turn into something like your friend.”  Coulson’s statement caused a nervous gulp from the four of them.  “Still we don’t want want to take chances so just go ahead and rest up for the night.  If any of you need something or want something to eat I’ll have an officer on hand to help out.  Just bang on your door and let him know.  In the meantime I’ll see each of you tomorrow.”<br/><br/>The containment cells weren’t exactly a four star hotel room but weren’t prison either.  The small bed was pretty good to sleep in, the toilet was clean, and there was even a sink and mirror.  Still laying there in his cell Reed was lonely as Hell.  He was roomed next to Susan on his left and Johnny on his right.  Though the walls were notably thick he could hear Johnny yelling at the officer to get him a sandwich.  Which was funny but didn’t do a lot to raise Reed’s spirit.  Finally though he started to get an idea.  Glancing over to the wall that separated him from Susan he stood up from sitting on his bed to examining it.  Feeling it slightly and trying to figure out if there was something he could exploit with it.  <br/><br/>Finally he realized the very slight opening between the wall and floor.  Glancing over at the door to make sure the officer wasn’t looking he tried to push his hand into the opening, and to his amazement though it took a bit of an effort he pushed it in.  “Hmm..”  Reed quietly pondered the idea to himself, and got to work.<br/><br/>Susan sat on her cell’s bed with her knees bent up to her chest and her arms wrapped around her knees as her face was buried into them. Her long blonde locks cascaded down her legs, now only in just a t-shirt and shorts seemingly ready for sleep. She just felt lonely and depressed. Worrying over her father’s condition and not being able to see him. She wondered what SHIELD had in store for her and her friends. She just didn’t know what was going on anymore, the world had gone completely mad and the only person who could comfort her was on the other side of a steel reinforced wall. Until a sound made her lift her head up and look at the wall next to her.<br/><br/>Resembling something of squishing mixed with grunts and scapes Reed pushed and pulled with everything he could until he saw the underside of the bed Susan was on.  Finally he pulled himself into the room more, clinching his sweat pants so they would come with as he finally popped into the room.  “Agh, they need to clean that space in there.”  Reed quietly joked, pointing at the wall.<br/><br/>Susan leapt back on the bed at Reed’s, shocked at his sudden appearance in the room. “Reed?!” She looked back at the wall and then back at him. He did not cease to amaze her. “How in the-..” It didn’t really matter, she got up and immediately hugged him tightly. “This is insane….” She despaired as she buried her head into his chest. <br/><br/>“Shh…”  Reed quieted her, not just to reassure her but because the SHIELD agents probably aren’t going to be happy to find out he did this.  “Its okay Sue I’m right here.”  He told her caressing her hair a little.  “Just relax, I’m not going anywhere.”<br/><br/>Susan nodded and pressed her ear up to his chest, hearing his heartbeat which calmed her down and relaxed her. She felt her own heart racing a little bit faster being so close to Reed, and being alone, finally. She squeezed her arms around his waist a little bit tighter, not wanting to let go. For she feared she may not even see him tomorrow at this rate with how things were going. <br/><br/>Reed smiled a bit, though not wanting to stay on the floor any longer carefully lifted himself up off the ground and let Susan get to her feet even as she continued to grasp him tightly.  Which was making his upper half slightly puffy in amusing sort of way.  “Here sit.”  Reed patted the side of the bed next to where he took a sit himself.  Though as Susan did so he carefully laid himself out on it.  Gently pulling Susan on top of him.  “Now what are you all worried over?  I thought we just got through the hard part.”  Reed asked her with a smile.  Though he was filled with as much dread over the future as she was, especially more so his friend Harvey.  He didn’t want the night to end on a downer.<br/><br/>“My father. I hope he’s okay...” She rested her head on his chest just underneath his chin, cuddling up to him. She wondered how Johnny was holding up too. His yelling seemed to have stopped for the moment, hopefully it was distracting enough to keep them from spotting Reed’s deception. <br/><br/>Reed gently placed his hands over her.  Using his powers to flatten and enlarge them so they made an impromptu blanket over the both of them.  “That agent guy said he was fine and I don’t have any reason to doubt him.”  Reed told her snuggling in a bit.  “Look whatever happens tomorrow happens.  But don’t think for a moment I went through everything the last 24 hours threw at us just they could do something bad to us or keep you and me away.”  Reed told her.  “Fact is we’re all in this now, together.  Just like you told me earlier right?”<br/><br/>Susan smiled at him and lifted her head up to look into his eyes “Together.” She said with a hopeful tone and a warm glint in her eye. He always knew how to cheer her up, like nobody else could. Sure she had her brother Johnny but that was a different kind of love. With Reed, it felt like they were the only two people in the world right now. <br/><br/>Reed looked deep into Susan’s heart and felt that funny feeling deep inside as he smiled a little more.  She was everything he didn’t realize he wanted in someone but there she is.  Laying atop of him in a moment he couldn’t ever forget if he tried.  Finally Reed leaned in, lips out, and slowly coming towards her.  A brief pause happened, force of habit from the last two times, before finally the two planted their lips together.<br/><br/>Susan blinked at him during the momentary pause, also expecting someone to burst in and stop them. Again. But their lips touched properly without interruption. And she smiled through it slightly. After everything they’d been through, at least they had each other’s love. And it would make them stronger. Finally, after the longest time of imagining this moment it was here. <br/><br/>Everything around Reed felt like it went into a stand still.  Kissing Susan was everything he had hoped and more, the love between them made everything he went through, and the horrors of what was to come nothing anymore.  Finally as he pulled away he gave Susan an assuring smile.  “Everything will be alright Susan, I promise.”</div>"

America herself was confused, as despite everything she had seen during her travels throughout the multiverse, this was entirely new. This had been her first ever encounter with someone who shared her ability to hop between dimensions. To be honest, she had expected something different. Someone fearsome and all powerful! Least of all, not some two-bit punk. It took a few seconds to even take in everything about the guy. This guy, Pusher Man as Derek referred to him as, certainly had a weird idea of style, with the man wearing a mismatch of different types of clothing, from a purple fedora atop his head, to a long flowing cape with a fur collar. On his fists, the man wore what appeared to be a pair of high-tech gauntlets, no doubt having the power to deal a whole fistful of pain. <br/><br/>“Name’s Pusher Man, dawg. You better respect or I’ll be givin’ yo a whuppin’” <br/><br/>America realized in that instant that she had never wanted to punch someone in the face as much as this guy. Quentin seemed to share that opinion, with him giving America a look as if to say “Please tell me this isn’t actually happening right now.”<br/><br/>Wishing to get this over with, America stepped forward in an intimidating manner. “Ok <span class=""bb-i"">Chicos</span>. I take it that you’re the guys behind the mutant growth hormone back on my Earth?”<br/><br/>“I thought that would be obvious, Ms America.” Derek proclaimed, moving back to sit behind his desk.<br/><br/>“Yeah, we’re know who you are, shawty” Derek’s adolescent friend chimed in politely. “And after we’re done with you m’ rep will be flyin’, you know what I’m sayin’?”<br/><br/>America felt embarrassed for herself that she even knew what he was saying. Did people seriously think that it is “cool” to speak like that? If it was, then America definitely didn’t want to be cool or anything of the sort. That’s not the only thing that confused her about this encounter. She nearly pinched herself to see if she was dreaming. This couldn’t be happening. Were the villains really monologing about their evil plan?<br/><br/>“So I met Mr B ‘ere, and told ‘im about my mad skillz.” Pusher Man explained, leaning back against Derek Bishop’s desk. He jolted forward however before continuing due to an irritated cough emerging from Derek who obviously wasn’t a fan of anyone touching his desk. “Sorry bruv. Anyway, back in da day, I was just a regular gangsta from the hood. Then boom! I’m a mutant! Teleportation powers baby!”<br/><br/>“Quite so. With my colleague’s abilities, we started our little side project.” Derek continued. “Selling Mutant Growth Hormone across the multiverse! How quaint! Pusher Man provided the first sample of the drug...”<br/><br/>“Yeah boi! Came across this shit ages ago! Was well crazy!”<br/><br/>“Then it was just a simple matter of recreating it. It was a flawless plan.”<br/><br/>“Until you came along, Shawty.”<br/><br/>Ms. America had had enough. Now, it was punching time. She moved forward, cracking her knuckles, intent on sending Pusher Man’s head flying off of his shoulders when Quentin stopped her. <br/><br/>“Wait. Why’d you do this Bishop? Surely your wife wouldn’t have wanted this!”<br/><br/>What was Quentin doing? Why on earth was he asking about the man’s wife? And how did he know about her? America raised her eyebrow at the thought. Quire’s telepathic abilities must have started working again. She just had to trust that the mutant knew what he was doing.<br/><br/>The question certainly caught Derek off-guard too. He rose from his seat, moving around the desk and back in front of the two teenagers. The question had put a strange smile on the man’s face. He paused for a few moments in thought before letting out a small chuckle. Was this funny to him?<br/><br/>“You see, running a delivery business isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be! Sure everyone’s shopping online nowadays, but there are hundreds, and I mean hundreds, of other companies out there doing the exact same thing. Thought it was time to try something new” He explained. He paused again for a few seconds before continuing. “As for my wife? Well you’re right. The bitch didn’t agree. So I had her killed. Didn’t take much. Just a few faulty screws on the ski lift at her favourite resort in Boulder. Everyone believed that I was an accide…”<br/><br/>“How…How could you!” <br/><br/>The sudden sound of the sobbing young woman surprised everyone in the room. Well everyone but Quentin. She was around their age, with dark hair and apart from the eyes which was now red and blotchy from the tears, a pale face. She seemed to have been training, evident by the yoga pants she was sporting and the purple tracksuit jacket. Evident by that, and the bow and arrow in her hand. America couldn’t tell which was more threatening. The sight of the notched arrow, or the furious look on her face. A quick smirk from Quentin clearly told America that he knew that she had been there in the doorway the entire time. And judging by her anger, she certainly wasn’t happy that her father had ordered her mother dead.<br/><br/>“Katherine… what… it’s not… it’s not how it sounds darling!”<br/><br/>“Shut it father. I’m going to fucking kill you!” Kate Bishop screamed, firing the arrow.<br/></div>"

Back in Asgard she suspected. Nostalgia and distant memories were becoming all too frequent, she wished they’d just stop. She then realised they were on about her friend, Tony, she had to get up help. Despite feeling slightly weakened, she jumped out of her bed and changed into her SHIELD uniform that she wore around base and headed straight for the medical bay with haste. <br/><br/>“No seriously is this considered international grounds?”  Tony asked as he was wheeled on his stretcher into the medical bay.  The agents who were bringing him in looked like they couldn’t wait to get away from the 19 year old CEO.  Which they were finally able to when they put Tony at his part of the area.  By now his broken and mangled arm was a deep red and turning purple, and his waist was blue.  Both of which were almost starting to get numb from all the pain he had felt with them.  Tony sighed frustrated as he waited on the stretcher by himself.<br/><br/>“Jesus Christ Tony! What in the Hell happened to you?!” Came a familiar female voice from the doorway as she walked in, all clad in black leather resembling Black Widow’s attire. She sighed and folded her arms looking at the state of her younger friend. This was going to take some work…<br/><br/>Completely relieved to see his friend Victoria Tony relaxed just a bit letting his head lay down into the small pillow under it.  “Oh I learned that crazy women with hammers don’t take to listening very well.”  Tony remarked as he was looking upwards at the ceiling lights.  “Especially when said hammer can break through every conceivable metal possible on someone’s Iron Man suit.  Never try to grab weird hammers being thrown at you, that's the moral for the day.”  Tony noted with a wise nodding of his head.<br/><br/>Agent Parrington walked over to his bedside and peered down at him with her slightly sparkling blue eyes, with her head tilted slightly. She was confused. “A hammer..? A hammer that can break through anything?” It sounded similar to Dragonfang’s characteristics. After all, the two weapons were siblings. Her thoughts wandered back to the man in a red cape wielding a hammer, who had a sort of brotherly feeling to him. <br/><br/>“No no not… whatever it is you just said it was…”  Tony tried to recall what he heard her saying to Loki.  “Mlojir?  Mlonor?  Mlonir?  Something like that.  Anyways not to ruin this nice conversation but can we get on with making my arm not a mangled muscle and bone stew anymore please?”  Tony asked gesturing to it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">‘Mjolnir…’</span> The name rang a bell, she knew it. She nodded down at Tony and began to lift her arms out over him and a gentle warming light emanated from her hands and down into his mangled arm and his broken bones, slowly the light spread throughout his entire body, making him feel a little warm and fuzzy inside. “And Pepper? Is she alright?” She asked with concern written on her face. She hoped she was not caught in the crossfire, having just began her new job as his secretary today. <br/><br/>“Oh God yeah that’s the stuff…”  Tony muttered as already he started to feel much better in his arm.  “You know when you’re done with this whole SHIELD business you know what you should do?  Learn messaging and that kind of work.  You’d make millions.  Not to mention I would totally hire you on a weekly basis.  If not bi-weekly.  I’m not hard to please.”  Tony rambled a bit as he felt life slipping back into his arm.  Letting out a breath of relief.  “Pepper and James are perfectly fine.  Hell Pepper actually helped save my stupid ass.  Seriously already very happy hiring her as my secretary.”  Tony noted.<br/><br/>A small chuckle escaped Victoria’s lips. She then realised that she had a friend who made her laugh. Although she did not see him very often, when she did, he was a delight to be around. Despite what everyone else thought, she thought him to be sweet and endearing as a person. She looked past his arrogance and irritating habits that put off most people and she could never feel intimidated by his intelligence, because she knew that if he tried any of his smartass alecks he knew he would get a serious beat down. “I’m glad they’re okay. But how did-...I mean….WHY did this happen to you? What was this Tarene even after from you? Not the suit…right?” She inquired curiously. <br/><br/>Thinking back Tony was able to feel his arm start to really come back around to normal.  Even able to clinch his hand into a fist again.  “Well she wanted our company’s satellite systems to track down Loki.  You know that guy from the party not long ago?  Well I told her in my nicest tone how she could go screw herself.  She didn’t like that and we started fighting.  The suit sucked royally but thankfully Loki showed up and talked her out of messing me up any further.  When the rest of your SHIELD buddies showed up she surrendered and I guess is being put into whatever maximum security crazy lady room you guys have.”  Tony was happy to see the guy come and save his butt.  Though in a much more ideal work his piece of crap armor wouldn’t have failed him so quickly and he wouldn’t have needed it.<br/><br/>“I….see….” Her blue eyes seemed to glow brighter and she blinked taking it all in. It was obvious something bothered her. She thought back to how Amora had painted Loki in a bad light, yet here he was again saving the day again. Victoria looked to the side a little sadly. She didn’t know how she felt anymore, she was lost and confused. But she knew one thing was for certain, she felt all alone without anyone to explain to her what to do. All her life she had followed orders but Amora made her realise she could make her own choices, could live her own life, free of all this hurt and pain. She looked back down to Tony and her arms fell down to her sides at having healed him over completely, she felt a little dizzy having just recovered from Team X’s beating. She had to grab onto the nearby side table to prevent herself from falling over. She waited for the dizzy spell to pass. <br/><br/>When Victoria almost fell over Tony quickly sat upright on the stretcher.  His newly healed arm not even on his mind anymore as his friend looked like she was going to pass out.  “Victoria you okay?”  Tony asked before holding his healed arm.  “Jesus it wasn’t that bad was it?”  He asked concerned he made her put a little too much energy into healing him.<br/><br/>“N-no it wasn’t. I’m just a little fatigued. I...was sent in to recover the Hulk and about eight highly skilled individuals took it’s toll on me. A formidable force indeed. I think SHIELD needed more than just I to deal with them. But I held up as much as I could. They found me passed out in the Canadian rockies. I thought I was honestly, going to die out there in the freezing snow.” She mused sadly about the situation. “On the bright side, one of them called me pretty.” She let a chuckle leave her mouth as she tried to make light of the situation. But on the downside, General Ross gave her hell for ‘letting’ the Hulk get away. No-one just lets him get away, he forces himself out if need be. <br/><br/>Tony listened in and suddenly didn’t feel so bad about his situation.  As Victoria sounded like she had a Hell of a day.  “Well… shit.”  Tony muttered a bit clueless what to say, which considering him was impressive to pull.  Letting himself sink back down onto the stretcher a bit before hopping off, pulling up a chair to sit down next to her.  “Well I guess it’s probably for the best I’m getting out of this Iron Man business then I guess.”<br/><br/>Victoria’s eyes widen at him in disbelief. “No...you can’t! That Iron Man suit is your baby. You’ve worked so hard for it to just quit now.” She protested at him in a firm voice, resembling that of an older sister. “So what if a hammer wielding crazy lady nearly tore you to shreds. Just think of what they would do to any normal person. Take from this experience, make the suit <span class=""bb-b"">better</span>.” She then gave him a warm smile. “I know you have it in you, Tony Stark.” <br/><br/>Tony glanced over at Victoria a bit surprised by her response.  After the day she just had any other reasonable person would’ve told him to get as far away from this kind of insanity with no regrets.  Victoria though wasn’t quite like that.  Even when they were little and she wouldn’t let anything slide when she didn’t think it was right.  “Well I guess I need to think about this.  I don’t know if I have it in me to make this work but… that suit was pretty sweet when it did work.”  Tony remarked to himself scratching the back of his head.  <br/><br/>“Then there you have it. You know the answer - never give up.” She nudged him in the shoulder gently and reassured him with a smile. Quite ironically, she was always good at giving inspiration to others but she never took her own advice. She needed to take a leaf out of her own book more than ever recently. She was sick and tired of being beat down with little appreciation that was for sure. </div>"

The Dooms surrounding the Rhino all let loose energy blasts at once forcing the beast to the ground. A concentrated E.M.P burst eminated from the centre of the circle where the attacks all met when colliding with Rhino, the blast knocking out all the systems in the airport including the equipment weilded by the Sokovian military. The Dooms however all remained standing. One of them moved to the centre whereas the others returned to where the jet was now returning to land. Surveying the Rhino he signled something out, grabbing a chip and then ripping it of the suit. Little did those on the airport know this was being broadcasted live to Latveria and surrounding nations, it would only be a matter of time until it was cast worldwide. <br/><br/>""This country, Sokovia. A gem on the European continent has seen enough bloodshed. Enough war. The Government has betrayed it's people and it's neighbours. I will be dispatching forces to disable any and all facilities or personnel utilizing stolen Latverian Technology. Once that is done all over the country I shall set up safe zones for votes to join the new Latverian Union. Should the people wish it I will then step in to aide this country, and once it is liberated with as little bloodshed as possible elections will be held to appoint it's own leader. Until then-"" He pointed towards Latveria. ""Anyone seeking refuge is welcome to enter Latveria and shall recieve the warmest of welcomes until the country is stabilized. Worry not about your luxuries, I had hoped to announce this at the UN conference however I will announce it here.""<br/><br/>Back in Latveria Doom stood onfront of the control console, directly controlling the actions of the Doombot. He hit a button and the entire country lit up. The Doombot back in Sokovia, being recorded by one of the other bots, spoke when he did. ""Latveria is now fully powered, I know some abroad question my leadership in the fact that I do not even offer people electricity but now it flows free all over Latveria. The reason it took so long is I wanted to ensure that everyone recieved this luxury and <span class=""bb-i"">right</span> at the same time."" The bot turned back to the Soldiers. ""You too, should you chose to stop serving a corrupt Government are welcome to lay down your arms, and welcome in Latveria or if Sokovia choses to join my new Union you will still be welcome here. You are merely men and women trying to help make your country stronger. Do your service to your fellow countrymen, and I respect that."" The bots slowly filed back into the jet. ""Any Sokovian soldier who wishes to lay down their arms, has twenty-four hours to do so. However, I will also try my best to ensure that no-one is harmed in the fight against the corrupt Government. There are no <span class=""bb-i"">acceptable</span> losses, and no <span class=""bb-i"">acceptable</span> collatoral damage. Any damage done will be repaired no matter Sokovias decision, and any loss of life will be extremely regretable. Thankyou.""<br/><br/>With that the Doombots turned and entered the jet. Letting go of his control of the bots he just sighed. His plans had... temporarily been delayed. However that was only a temporary setback. Nothing he couldn't handle, now for his next plan... He could do more than one at the same time afterall. For he was Doctor Victor Von Doom, ruler of Latveria and the (He was sure) soon to be quite prosperous Latverian Union.<br/><br/>He'd let his message settle in first, and then he'd speak to other neighbouring countries. He was sure they'd be more than willing to join. Feeling left out by the EU and the rest of the world. He'd represent the little man, his plans were coming to fruition.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.annihil.us/u/prod/marvel/i/mg/5/03/5457d626c1018/background.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>The Quinjet landed on Heli-Carrier Alpha. He wasn't entirely sure on the name, the other ones were Hermes and Luxor. Alpha... it just wasn't nearly as exciting. Despite the fact that he was based here and quite a few of the other more powerful gifted were. Such as Agent Parr- Valkyrie. As she had apparently called herself. That would get some getting used to, he hadn't chosen his own name. He wasn't entirely sure wha the would chose if he had to pick his own name. He had been Agent Wilson and then when they found the shield of Captain America buried in the ice he became Captain America. There was no time he had really chosen his own name. He'd probably chose the name of some form of bird of prey, that would probably work.<br/><br/>He just sighed when he saw the General wading towards him. <span class=""bb-b"">""Agent Wilson-""</span> Well, at least that suggested what mood the General was in. It wasn't even <span class=""bb-i"">Captain</span>, let alone <span class=""bb-i"">Captain America</span>. At least he wasn't just calling him Soldier, or Wilson. That'd be really bad. Wilson stood at attention. ""Yes Sir?"" Ross pulled out a file and threw it against Wilsons chest and Wilson braced against it to prevent from being pushed back. <span class=""bb-b"">""This is yours. You trained her, you know what she did? She let the Hulk go.""</span> Wilson just gave it a quick glance. ""I am sure there is a reason behind it, in fact I am about to go see Agent Parrington herself, Sir."" Ross just shook his head. <span class=""bb-b"">""I know you're working on a little project, <span class=""bb-i"">Avengers</span>. I want Hulk to be a priority for that team.""</span> Wilson shook his head.<br/><br/>""We aren't forming to tidy up after your mess, Sir. With all due respect."" Ross paused for a second as he obviously had to collect his thoughts. <span class=""bb-b"">""You will go, and do what you are ordered to do Soldier. Don't think you're so untouchable just because you carry that shield. Don't forget who you work for, I'll be in touch.""</span> Wilson went rigid and offered a salute before walking in the opposite direction grumbling. He soon learned however, that Valkyrie wasn't in her room. She was instead in one of the main med bays. He found out why when he entered and he just sighed. He was really hoping Hyperion would go to see the kid. At least Fury had agreed only to ask him to be a consultant. He wasn't entirely sure how he felt about taking a kid into a fight after all.<br/><br/>""Agent Parrington, good to see you.

He never was one to give up but he wasn’t an idiot either.  Either way Tony could only hope to have time to ponder the issue before things got ugly again.<br/><br/>Before Tony could really dwell on the thoughts for much longer some guy in a suit that was needless to say wasn’t leaving the wearer’s nationality in question.  All it needed was a cheeseburger and an assault rifle and it’d be perfect, maybe something xenophobic too.  “I’m sorry did I need a members card and overly American suit to get healed up around here?”  Tony snipped out quick as only a Stark could.  Remembering that he should probably try to be civil Tony Stark stood up and held out a hand to Sam.  “Well since I’m as internationally known as I thought I was, what’s your name mister…. America?”  Tony asked still puzzled by the suit a bit.  If nothing else he was craving Wendy’s.  Do they have one on the ship?<br/><br/>Sam shook his hand. “Well, I guess kids these days don’t watch the news. Sam Wilson, Captain America. I would have thought a Stark would recognise the Uniform. Guess not.” He looked at Valkyrie giving her a questioning look. “Also, S.H.I.E.L.D is an international agency. The Captain America suit and shield are a throwback to the original Captain America who was lost in World War Two, surely you at least know of him?” He turned to look at Valkyrie. “I don’t know if <span class=""bb-i"">Ross</span>-” He said the name with some hint of disdain “- Told you this but I’m putting together a team. Here’s your formal invitation, and Mr.Stark. I’d like for you to be a tech consultant.” Keep it short, keep it simple.<br/><br/>“Oh really?  Here I thought you were just playing dress up.”  Tony Stark already was not enjoying Sam’s tone with him.  There was an aire of superiority to it that made Tony want to use his now healed arm and put it through the guy’s face.  It was the kind of crap he had to put up with constantly when he took over his dad’s job.  Just because he was 19 years old people already assumed he couldn’t handle the position and responsibilities.  Tony took it as an insult, as he knew his dad was preparing him for the role from the day he was born.  To insinuate Tony wasn’t ready to run the family business meant belittling his father to him.  The biggest insult you could do to the young Stark.<br/><br/>“Look I happen to run a multi-billion dollar organization in case <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> don’t read the news past the funny comics.  I don’t have time to pay attention to every little detail of the world, especially any news considering a guy who runs around pretending to be someone else.”  He was familiar with Captain America, even the interesting urban myths that the person who did all the public appearances wasn’t actually the man himself, and that the real Captain America was either a woman, an African-American, even a Native American depending on who you ask.  Either way all the stories about him made him come off as very respectable, something Sam Wilson clearly had no idea on.<br/><br/>Still the tech consultant role sounded good to Stark, it meant good publicity for Stark Tech to work with something that would be incredibly high profile.  Plus if nothing else Tony knew he needed to do something to get back on S.H.I.E.L.D.’s good side.  While Fury never said anything directly to him or anyone else.  Tony had heard through the grapevine that the director wasn’t pleased at all that they lost a big supplier in their weapons because of what Tony did to the company. <br/><br/>“Now as for the consulting position, eh sure why the Hell not.”  Tony responded with a shrug.  <br/><br/>“I don’t pretend to be anyone else. You’re in the big world of adults now, sometimes a title. An ideal needs to have a physical presence. I was chosen to do this, I didn’t chose it. I’ll do this job till I die or someone else comes along. I spent years training for this, and was lucky enough that my blood would accept what little of the super soldier serum S.H.I.E.L.D has left. You might have your fancy tech, but I have training kid. Hell, maybe if this all pans out Iron Man can become more than a pipe option-” He raised a hand and indicated Valkyrie. “-After all. You wouldn’t be the first Rook I trained.”<br/><br/>“Oh I’m in a big world of adults now?!”  Tony feigned shock with his hands up to his cheek.  He was getting fairly sick of Sam’s belittling tone and was ready to just get back to the company so he can get started on getting things fixed up.  When he is confused on choices or frustrated, like Sir ‘Murica was making him.  Work was usually a good way for him to unwind.  “Hey it’s great you have a ‘rah rah’ heartfelt story to tell all the good little boys and girls.  But don’t assume for one second being an adult means violence towards someone who disagrees with you and war with lots of people who disagree with you.”  Tony planted a finger right onto Sam’s chest.  “Hell you wouldn’t last a day in the world of business.  I’ve dealt with people who would talk you out of anything you had just because they felt like it.  People who make Chinese water torture look like an afternoon on the beach.  People who make any terrorist you deal with look like a cheap bitch.  You can think you’re a big boy all you want, truth is, you probably don’t even know what being a grown up even <span class=""bb-i"">means</span>.”  With that Tony gave Sam a very mocking salute and headed out of the medical room to get a transport back to work.  “Oh and Cap?”  Tony paused at the exit and turned back, needing to get this last part off his chest.  “I don’t know if I’m keeping the Iron Man program going or not, but if I am, I’m sure as Hell not wasting it on you.”  With that, Tony turned and left. <br/><br/>Sam just turned to look at Valkyrie as the, well, brat left. “You know, I faced a telepathic pterodactyl earlier and an army of dinosaurs. I’d rather take the pterodactyl again than go through that again.” He shuddered. “How the other half lives eh? I don’t know how you did all the political and business maneuvering back when you were with your family Valkyrie. I’m sorry but I really don’t. I hate fighting as much as the next guy, but I’d rather go into the fight myself and perhaps lose my life in the process than let some innocent person who wasn’t prepared take the bullet for me.” He sighed. “Anyway, I know you’ve known Stark for a long time. If you want to go after him, on you go. I’ll be in touch but until then-” He turned to leave the room as well. “Our glorious leader awaits.”</div>"

Who turned off the gravity?”  The Blob yelled as he began to levitate due to Jean’s telekinesis.  While the Blob spun in midair, as if he were in the vacuum of space, the Beast rushed up towards where the Blob was floating and leapt up towards him.  However, when the Beast crashed into his target, the only thing that happened was the Beast ricocheting off of the Blob’s body.<br/><br/>	“If you wanted to use my as a trampoline, you should just have asked!”  The Blob joked again, even though he was in no position to be of such light character.  Meanwhile, as the Blob jested at his own expense, Vanisher had reappeared next to Lorelei and safely escorted her away from the battle via his teleportation powers.<br/><br/>	While all that was happening, Carol slowly pulled herself out of the shattered remains of what used to be a tree.  This was the second time that Carol thought that she should have received a fatal injury when in fact she did not.  While crashing down into a tree and causing it to splitter did hurt momentarily, Carol was surprised that she did not have any bruises from the impact, let along broken bones.<br/><br/>	The better question was how Carol got there.  The last thing Carol remembered doing was sitting in the living room as she was finishing up some homework.  Her parents had just ran out to Lowes.  One of the few times where her parents were not arguing, although Carol knew that something would happen at the store.  One second, Carol was working on her homework.  The next, she was wearing this ridiculous outfit while being in a body that seemed to be a version of her own body that was a little less than a decade older than her current age.<br/><br/>	From the corner of her eye, Carol noticed some kind of tiny projectile flying towards herself.  With a reflex that she did not even know she had, Carol stood up and snatched out of the air whatever was soaring towards her before it had a chance to strike her torso.  Even with her gloves on, Carol could still feel a moist, sliminess in her hands.  When she looked down to see what she had caught, Carol realized that she had caught a green tongue.  On the other side of the tongue was the Brotherhood member, Toad.<br/><br/>	“Ay, I usn’t amying four hose!”  The Toad tried to plead with Carol, while his pronunciation was inhibited by his extended tongue.  “I us owning four oar ed.”<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""What Toad said"" type=""button"">What Toad said [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">”Hey, I wasn’t aiming for those (i.e. her ‘torso’).  I was going for your head (because she stood up).”</div></div><br/>	“You’re a pervert.”  Carol muttered under her breath before she yanked back on the green tongue and swung it around her head.  After a few rotations, Carol released Toad’s tongue, sending him flying towards Avalanche.  Right when Toad struck his teammate, Vanisher had appeared to escort the Greek mutant from this losing battle.  Since Toad hit Avalanche during the teleportation process, the hunchbacked mutant was transported along with the other two mutants, although they would feel the impact once they reached wherever Vanisher had taken them.<br/><br/>	Then something struck Carol, metaphorically speaking.  What had caused her to do that, to swing some mutant by his <span class=""bb-b"">tongue</span>?  What was wrong with her?  First it appears that she has near invulnerability.  Then she somehow has fighting reflexes that she did not use to have.  How could this get any weirder?<br/><br/>	Suddenly, Carol saw a yellow glow arise in the palm of her hand.  With each passing moment, the light grew, first being contained in within the crease of her hand, but then encompassing her entire hand.  Carol stretched out her hand, pointing her palm out in front of herself so that she could see how this was affecting the back of her hand.  However, she instantaneously felt a recoil in her arm.  Somehow, Carol had shot a blast of energy that was composed of the same light that had formed around her hand.<br/><br/>	Unfortunately for her, Carol had accidentally aimed her arm towards one of the X-Men, Jean Grey to be exact.   Carol’s face grew so red that the color of her skin would have matched the same hue that was used for the red in her costume.  Furthermore, she was so embarrassed at having shot an energy blast at someone whom she assumed was not her enemy, since it was an easy assumption to make that one group of mutants who are attacking the other group of mutants who had attacked Carol were probably not her enemies, that as a result she could not even speak.  All she could do was stand there, frozen by her embarrassment.</div>"

At her feet lay countless unconscious body guards. Among them was the infamous Pusher Man. Thank God that he was out as one more word from him and America wouldn’t have been able to control herself. To his left, sat Quire, who was slouched against the desk massaging his forehead slightly with him fingers. He gave America a short, half-assed smile before she moved on with her eyes. Derek Bishop lay unconscious too, a short distance from the desk. The only noticeable difference between him and the rest seemed to be a deep red cut across the side of his face. That had been the second arrow which Kate had fired.<br/><br/>“Oh, Kate…” America murmured to herself as she turned to look at the girl. She sat away from the group by one of the penthouse’s bay windows in silence. America had mixed feelings about the girl. She was skilled, she had to give her that. The girl had just finished her archery session, hence the bow, and boy was she good with that thing. Quentin had quickly telepathically told her during the conflict that archery wasn’t the only thing she was good at. The mutant had read Kate’s mind. Apparently the girl regularly took part in training sessions for a whole range of things, from martial arts, to sword fighting and archery. Again, she was good. However she had been reckless. She would have probably killed her father with that first arrow if America hadn’t had stopped it. America couldn’t exactly blame her for lashing out though. The man had literally admitted to killing her mother. America would probably have done the same. <br/><br/>Glancing back towards the numerous unconscious henchmen and the two ring leaders, America began thinking about what to do next. She couldn’t just leave them all hear. They’d just carrying on as normal and continue their mutant growth hormone trade. Nor could she kill them, regardless of how much Pusher Man made her want to. That was when America remembered the card that lay in her pocket. S.H.I.E.L.D. could help. This was totally their kind of thing! She swiftly pulled out the card and glanced at the number before turning towards Quentin. <br/><br/>“Hey, Q. You mind…” <br/><br/>Before she could continue, the mutant shot her another smile and sprung to his feet. “On it boss.” He said mockingly before grabbing the phone on the desk and began punching in the phone number. America grimaced slightly as he did it. Obviously her psychic defences weren’t as strong as she had thought. Shit.<br/><br/>Now however wasn’t the time to worry about that. As Quentin began mouthing off at the S.H.I.E.L.D. secretary on the phone for putting him on hold, America decided it was time to something important.<br/><br/>“Hey <span class=""bb-i"">chica</span>…” America spoke calmly as she came to sit next to Kate. She was frozen, staring down at the city below through the glass. America, noticing a tear running down the girls face, moved her arm gently, gently wiping it away. “You did good today.”  <br/><br/>A series of sobs followed from the young girl who burrowed her head into her hands.<br/><br/>America wrapped her arms around her. “Don’t worry. It’s going to be ok. Everything is going to be ok.” <br/></div>"

Couldn't see anything. Couldn't feel anything. No noise or taste or smell. Just void. Nothingness. I toyed with the idea that I've finally found my healing factor's limit and was now paying for my sins in hell. 'Course I knew better than that; I'd been like this before. Last time somethin' similar occurred 'cuz I was chasing down Nuke in Vietnam and got caught inside a napalm bombing run. Napalm. Nasty stuff, burns people to nothin' but charcoal. That was the second worst pain I'd ever experienced. 'For a while it had been cemented as numero uno. Today was worse. Much worse. Somebody once told me that you don't feel nothin' after the first 500 degrees. Bullshit, I say. I felt at least 1000 there before my nerves were fried. Professor Dickbag had the place rigged with a frickin' nuke. A frickin' nuke! That freak was so paranoid that he managed to smuggle in a nuclear weapon just 'ta use as a self destruct fail-safe. Well, Thorton, your stupid bomb worked just fine. Everything's gone. Now there's a square mile of Canadian wilderness that'll be unlivable for the next hundred years.

The first sight he was greeted with was a helicarrier descending from the clouds, Quinjets swarming around it. <span class=""bb-i"">Ah, crap.</span> On top of everything else, Wolverine was minutes from being captured by SHIELD's cronies and strapped to a table in some dark bunker to be experimented on for the rest of eternity. No way. Not if James Howlett had anything to say about that. Only, he couldn't move his arms. Or anything besides his eyes for that matter. Wolverine strained to examine the burnt out clearing for any means of escape. Or even just somewhere to hide. Nothin'. The entire facility had been turned to ash and the forest was splinters. If SHIELD saw his body, they'd take it in a second. Even if he was dead, an entire skeleton's worth of primary Adamantium was priceless. There wasn't enough money in the world to buy something so rare and so valuable. A quinjet touched down at the edge of the crater just in time for Logan's hearing to return. The roar of the plane's engine shook his new eardrums, threatening to burst them. <span class=""bb-i"">Come on come on come on. Heal faster, damn it!</span> The jet's ramp lowered itself into the snow, and a pair of agents dressed in hazmat suits made their way out. Based on how they were wielding their weapons, neither expected to find any danger here. A third agent exited the Quinjet, pointing a Rad detector towards the crater. <br/><br/>The threesome slowly made their way deeper into the crater. Wolverine's organs were healing as fast as they could; but until his muscle and sinew started to reform, there was nothing Logan could do but watch. One of the SHIELD agents pointed straight at Logan. ""Hey, you see that?"" He whispered. ""Yeah,"" the other guy responded. ""Is that a metal skeleton?"" The agents picked up the pace of their little jog. <span class=""bb-i"">Crap.</span> Wolverine thought. ""Is- Are his organs...regrowing?"" The hazmat agent holding the rad detector asked, astonished. ""Whoever that is, they're not dead. Look at the eyes. It can see us."" The final agent pulled a radio from his belt and reported Wolverine's location to whoever was on that helicarrier in the sky. <span class=""bb-i"">No no no no no NO!!</span><br/><br/>One of the agent's raised the butt of his rifle, slamming it against Wolverine's unprotected metal skull. Darkness enveloped his mind as his eyes went limp. ""Yeah. Yeah. He's definitely alive. Of course, director Fury. We're taking him in now."" Were the last words Wolverine heard before his mind was blanketed in unconsciousness once more.</div>"

It wasn’t the easiest task ever and she had to admit, she found it hard to refuse knocking him out. Though she did, somehow. Thankfully it wasn’t the longest drive, there had been some questions on the building of S.H.I.E.L.D's main base, the Triskelion, within driving distance of New York but all the old work done to Camp Lehigh was too good to pass up on. Some of the older buildings like the armory and garage still stood, with a large industrial looking building sitting behind it. Most the extensive work was naturally done underground however, just to keep the true scale of it secret.<br/><br/>She turned back to look at Pym as they neared the looming cylindrical main building, centered between two long curving arms that turned in an almost hugging gesture to the old campsite. Before they got there however, they reached a flag in the middle of a roundabout. Behind this flag stood a statue of Steve Rogers, the original Captain America. <br/><br/>“We’re almost there now Mr. Pym. Captain America will meet with you as soon as you’re checked into the facility so if you have any questions before meeting the Captain I suggest you get them off your chest now.”<br/><br/>Hank’s quips seemed to go on stand-by mode when the agent mentioned Captain America. It was hard to realize that he’d be in the same room with someone who carried that mantle and Hank had some experience knowing stuff about legacies. He crossed his arms as he looked to Agent Laskov and thought for a moment about what he’d exactly say here.<br/><br/>“Well, it’s Captain America for one.” <br/><br/>His eyes drifted from building to building.<br/><br/>“I don’t even know what questions to ask, outside of the big ones that are classified. Hell, I don’t know why you guys are pulling me out here either. You said that was classified too. All I know is that it is about Ant-Man.” <br/><br/>Laskov nodded. <br/><br/>“So, I guess we get this over with and find out what you guys need to talk to me about beyond what you are ‘allowed’ to tell me. I guess I should ask one thing though.”<br/><br/>“What?”<br/><br/>“I’m hungry. So if you can be a good gofer when I’m talking to Captain America and grab me a slice of pizza that’d be wonderful.”<br/><br/>Laskov rolled her eyes.<br/><br/>“Well you know what, the Captain is planning on meeting you in the officer’s mess. So he must know it’s lunch time. So you’re in luck.” She turned to face forward in time for them to pull up to the large door structure. She walked out of the door and waited for Pym to hop out of the car.<br/><br/>The entire massive entryway was made of glass, and just inside was the black eagle to symbolize S.H.I.E.L.D. Though it wasn’t visible at this distance the entire statue was a plaque with roughly the top half of it containing the names of the fallen or the lost in the history of S.H.I.E.L.D. While they weren’t officially members of S.H.I.E.L.D, Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes were atop that list.<br/><br/>As Pym left the vehicle another female agent, this time a blonde, walked up. <br/><br/>“Agent Carter. A pleasure to meet you, Mr. Pym.” She offered her  hand. <br/><br/>“If you’d like to come with me, we’ll get you signed in and to the Captain as soon as possible.”<br/><br/>Hank Pym was admittedly very nervous despite whatever it appeared on the surface. As he exchanged hands and respect with another agent of the quasi-federal agency he began to get the depth of the circumstances he was here. This wasn’t for role call or consequences of vigilantism. He wouldn’t be here if it was so simple as that. He had to wonder what scenario called for this though since he wasn’t exactly the highest profile hero in New York or even the United States. <br/><br/>“How can I refuse? Lead the way.” He chuckled, responding to Agent Carter as he shuffled his hands in his pockets. <br/><br/>She turned leading them into the main atrium. “Well, I am sure you could refuse by changing to… what was it again? The size of an insect?” She shook her head slightly. Some of the things they learned about some people were just weird… Though apparently this was one of the more legit theories to be walked through the front door so to speak, with the fact apparently there had previously been an Agent who had held the mantle of Ant-Man.<br/><br/>She first walked him up to a <span class=""bb-i"">reception</span> type area where his fingerprints were taken and he was given a biometric tag to keep track of him and ensure that he could access any area of the facility he had permission to enter, and keep him out any he didn’t have authorization for. It wasn’t until the elevator that Sharon properly spoke again.<br/><br/>“I’m glad you decided to come Mr. Pym, and I’m sure the Captain will feel that way too. I’ve had the privilege of helping oversee this project and I must say, from what we know you’re an excellent fit.”<br/><br/>“Didn’t have much of a choice.” Hank commented as he carefully looked at every bit of the federal facility that he could analyze. Didn’t hurt to be cautious, after all.<br/><br/>“A fit for what, exactly? The other agent couldn’t really give me a straight answer.”<br/><br/>“That’s the question, some call it the <span class=""bb-i"">Avengers Initiative</span>, which is my personal favourite, others call it a response team and the more fanboyish amongst us are calling it a group of <span class=""bb-i"">Earth's Mightiest Heroes</span>” She shrugged.<br/><br/>“Really, I’m just the Captain's aide. My job is to review potential applicants and help members of the team get used to being on the team. Really think of me like a personal assistant to the team.” <br/><br/>“So it’s a job interview. Heh.”<br/><br/>The elevator dinged and the door opened, she then indicated down the corridor as she lead them down the corridor and into one of the first doors on the left. Opening the door, Agent Carter leaned in before Hank was at the door and then turned to stand at the side of the door in a defensive position. <br/><br/>“The Captain will see you now.” She smirked at the comment.<br/><br/>“Well, here goes nothing.” Hank muttered under his breath as he stepped forward, deciding it was time to get this over with. <br/><br/>There was some silver lining to all of this, as he remembered what the other agent had said previously about this meeting be in the equivalent of a military cafeteria and him getting a meal out of it. His budget in the current week had kind of gone to the dogs and all he had back at his apartment was what was left of a two-day old pizza and two cans of some dollar store brand soda; not exactly a great meal for someone who exerted as much energy as he did.<br/><br/>“I heard there was lunch!” Hank exclaimed as he walked in the mess hall.<br/><br/>Sam Wilson sat at the back of the small hall, the shield was off to the side leaning against the wall and the red white and blue uniform wasn’t currently being worn. Instead he was wearing a more grey style jumpsuit/flight suit with clips and straps all likely related to the flight pack. Sitting on front of him were two pizza boxes.<br/><br/>Wilson pointed at one of them. “There you go Hank, one pizza. Freshly made in one of the best joints in New York. If that’s not acceptable, I’m sure there’s something in the base you’d like to eat.”<br/><br/>“I didn’t know Captain America was psychic.”<br/><br/>Wilson chuckled as he used his left leg to kick out the chair opposite him. “I’m afraid not. You can thank your file for me knowing you like pizza. I tell you those case officers really don’t leave anything out.”<br/><br/>Hank smirked as he took the seat. Hank liked a lot of things beyond pizza, but this was a good start to this interview for… what did the agent call it? The Avengers? That didn’t sound wrong, but what were they exactly avenging in the first place? What a dumb name. He really hoped they had a better name than that, but he supposed it wasn’t the worst name they could think of.<br/><br/>“So how much do they have on me? I’ve done some naughty stuff, I’ll tell you.”<br/><br/>Wilson shrugged and pushed Hank’s file forward. “Take a look if you really want. Though I’m not really interested in any of the naughty stuff you’ve been up to. I just care that you’ve done some heroic stuff, have skills and have the tech. Any questions?”<br/><br/>“So what are we avenging?” Hank casually commented as he slid his file and opened it with his left hand as he reached for a slice of pizza with his right. <br/><br/>“Okay, I’ll admit. The name is a work in progress. Don’t ask me where Fury got the Avengers from. It sounds overly dramatic, I’m trying to push for Defenders or something like that personally.” <br/><br/>He shrugged as he took a bite of his own pizza. “Basically as there are more and more super powered people appearing all over the globe, the more and more powerful the bad guys seem to be becoming.”<br/><br/>He hit a TV remote with his other hand, showing some screens from his recent adventure to the savage land. “A single man or woman isn’t really enough to stand in their way, a team of people however… working together as a single unit. Well that, that’ll do the job.”<br/><br/>Hank swallowed his bite of the pizza, “So you’re asking me to join the army? This feels like a bad hollywood movie, Cap; dashing rogue down on his luck gets enlisted by the government to take down some big bad guys? This is basically Lockout but instead of the prison being in space it’s… in wherever this place is. Critics give it a thumbs down.”<br/><br/>Wilson just sighed. “You want out, there’s the do—” <br/><br/>Hank cut SHIELD’s top ‘superhero’ off right there, not letting him finish his dissatisfied “Well, there’s the door.” remark. “Hold on, Cap. I didn’t say no. I happen to like Lockout. Critic’s have no idea what they are talking about.”<br/><br/>“They rarely do, you should have seen all the critics and fans losing their minds when they made Captain America a black guy. The internet went crazy.” He picked up another slice, eying it up before taking another bite out of it. <br/><br/>“I guess the whole thing does seem like a bad movie. I guess that’s what makes it interesting, where else are you going to make a global difference, get to punch bad guys and use… whatever concoction it is what lets you shrink to the size of an insect.”<br/><br/>“Science. Science let’s me do that.”<br/><br/>“Science is underrated these days, it gives me wings and what little actual super human abilities that I have.” Wilson shrugged. “Does this mean you’re onboard?”<br/><br/>“Ever since I took this mantle up, I’ve been realizing what I can do with it. When I was travelling all over Europe when I was a little younger I saw lots of oppression and other issues that something like this could’ve helped.”<br/><br/>Hank smirked as he looked to the soldier in front of him. “I want to help people. Call it a trial run, but I’d like to see what helping people with Captain America looks like in person.”<br/><br/>“I think the only difference is, when you’re with me you get to see someone flying around throwing a shield.” He pointed over to the shield, probably one of the most famous objects when thinking about America. “It’s a nice shield, though you have your own little hat tricks of course.” <br/><br/>Wilson pushed over a card, Hanks basic details already on it. “ID card. Lets us know where you are if you have it on you. Means of communication and can also relay a pretty handy looking map.” He tapped his own ear piece as he stood up, walking over to the shield and picking it up.<br/><br/>“I got one more port of call to make, you need anything before I go?”<br/><br/>Hank chuckled. “How about some intel on my soon-to-be teammates? And some soda, I’m thirsty.”<br/><br/>Wilson pulled a coin out of his pocket and tossed it over to Hank. “Use one of the machines to get your drink, as in terms of your team mates.” Wilson shrugged as he started walking towards the door.<br/><br/>“We have one possible god, one god, one being who is essentially a god, a super soldier, a girl who can travel between dimensions and take a hell of a punch and we have a tech advisor who's a billionaire and pisses me off. For a full briefing, please see Agent Laskov or Agent Carter. Either will get you situated anyway, I’ll be back shortly.”<br/><br/>“Got it.” Hank nodded as he did exactly that— the soda first, of course.<br/><br/>After he had some cold sugar water in his system, Hank peaked his head out of the mess hall’s doorway looking for Agent Carter; as she had separated from him at the door before he had met Captain America. <br/><br/>“Agent, can I have a minute?” He called out as he noticed her still standing at position. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://41.media.tumblr.com/f6b15de483d35d5cc4c4c57250900fb7/tumblr_n6npn9esvl1qm8jfmo1_500.png""/></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/bright_ops"">@Bright_Ops</a> and <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a> present you with: Villain or Hero?</span><br/><br/>The trip to what appeared to be the mobile, flying headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D had been surprisingly relaxing for Loki; It gave him some time to sit down, lean back and relax after such an emotionally stressful morning. He had already made up his mind that he was going to have to check up on Tony sooner rather than later in order to see how well he was healing up after his first direct encounter with an Asgardian, but there were some matters that needed to be taken care of first.<br/><br/>The first of which required him to be sitting in a chair in a waiting room, tapping his fingers against his legs as he waited to meet with the man in charge of SHIELD that went by the name Fury. One way or another, this was going to be an interesting conversation.  <br/><br/>Fury walked in without even glancing at the God, slapping a file on the table in the middle of the <span class=""bb-i"">waiting</span> room. It was more of a lock box, as tight as they could possibly make it at the flip of a switch. One of the few things they still managed to buy out of Stark Tech without getting grief for the whole “No weapons” thing. He then sat down opposite the so called God. “That’s everything we have on you.”<br/><br/>He let Loki sit at the table and pick up the file. “If you can’t tell, that’s not a lot. We’re the world's top most spy agency, I can get a bigger file on some randomer who owns a cabin in the middle of nowhere near a small town.” He slapped down another file on the middle of the table. “Then, a couple of days after we learn you exist, you move the Hulk to Australia, fight Giant Snakes and save Tony Starks life from a woman with a serious grudge who says she needs to protect the world from you. So, why don’t you explain.” It wasn’t a request.<br/><br/>Loki didn’t even flinch as the flip was slapped down and whom he could assume was Fury (Unless they decided to send in a body double for security reasons) before the two of them sat down to talk. More out of curiosity than anything else, Loki accepted the file that SHIELD had on him before flicking through the pages in order to see what he had actually given away. <br/><br/>Turned out, not that much. Most of it seemed to be due to his recent activities, but there did seem to be some situations in which they seemed to suspect he had been apart of in hindsight but couldn’t actually prove… Removing two of the sheets, he placed them aside as he explained “As much as I would love to take the credit for these two, they had nothing to do with me. The rest seems good though.” Okay, maybe taunting the spy agency might not have been the best of ideas, but after the day he had been having Loki needed something to make himself smile.<br/><br/>“To answer your questions, I will start from the start.” Taking a small breath, Loki closed and put down the file so that he could turn all of his attention towards Fury. “Before the showdown at the docks in New York, I had actually been trailing the Hulk myself for a while, prepared to step in if the situation called for it. Do you know what I saw? I was something that was trying to escape a highly populated area with a minimum of fuss. The only times he fought was when someone rather foolishly started to shoot at him. It was only once General Ross blocked off the quick escape and forced a confrontation that the situation completely went to the Nether. As to why I moved him to Australia… quite simply, I took him somewhere that was free of people.”<br/><br/>“The Giant Snakes were a present offered up by an old ally of mine who disliked the fact that the last time we worked together I didn’t hold up to my end of the bargain. Honestly, the fact that she actually survived that betrayal in the first place surprises me but alas it is merely yet another regret I bare from a time long past.” Loki’s shoulders actually slumped a little as he confessed to this. Almost as if he had the weight of the world on his shoulders. <br/><br/>“In truth… I would rather not talk about the events that Tarene no doubt mentioned. But alas, my discomfort about what happened is the least of the punishments that I must deal with for what I did. Consumed by hatred, pride and madness, I led a genocidal war against the people of Asgard. While there were faults and betrayals committed by both sides, in hindsight I can see that I went to far. To many innocent people were caught up in it. Tarene was one of them and was obsessed with vengeance against me. I don’t blame her… and I am glad that she proved she was better than I had been when she listened to reason and stopped before she killed Tony.”<br/><br/>Taking a moment of silence, Loki asked “How are Tarene and Tony doing?”        <br/><br/>“Thor, Tarene…. whatever she is called has went off grid. We’re currently trying to track her down so we can bring her in for questioning. Tony is doing much better now he enlisted Agent Parrington to skip the entire healing process. Also I’ll be honest, I don’t give a damn what you’ve done out there. I care what you plan on doing.” He leaned back in his chair, a bid to remove a bit of the intensity of the discussion. “It’s a vulnerable world out there. Beings like the Hulk, and I heard what you said about him but that’s a discussion for another time since we’ve now lost him somewhere in Canada. Then you have people who can throw hammers that can tear through metal or people as technologically advanced as Doctor Victor Von Doom who control their own country.”<br/><br/>He pushed a file into the middle of the desk. “If you want something really crazy read that. We have someone who can fly, is virtually invincible, super strong and has laser vision. Glad he’s on our side, because not long ago he faced off a telepathic pterodactyl with Captain America. Though I suppose this isn’t that dramatic for a god, but it’s dramatic for us. What I need to know is if you want to make a damn difference in this world.”<br/><br/>Loki actually had to raise his eyebrow a little at the list of powers that Fury had listed off. True, virtual invincibility and super strength were fairly common but laser vision? That was a new one. Taking the file and opening it up, he started to read through it carefully. “You don’t have to tell me how vulnerable the world is Fury. I know for a fact how easy it is for things to go bad. I’ve seen both world wars… I would rather avoid seeing a third.”<br/><br/>“So what exactly do you want from me?”    <br/><br/>Fury hated to admit it, he actually kinda liked this guy. “That’s what we all want to avoid, and exactly what S.H.I.E.L.D is all about, about meeting all the people who can’t be matched or controlled under wraps. Now, this isn’t my most popular idea with the World Security Council but I’ve got the green light to go ahead with it.” He slid forward another file. “With training, preparation and a little time of being on the side I’d ask for you to join a new initiative we’re starting here at S.H.I.E.L.D. One where we gather some of the most powerful people on the planet, all intent on doing good. Put them together in a team and make them Earths Mightiest Heroes.” A screen behind him lit up, showing Captain America in several news “action” shots.<br/><br/>“Being around for both World Wars you probably know about Captain America, and the original one at that. Not just the latest incarnation. He’s always been a simple for peace and freedom the world over, though as you probably know such a symbol can’t combat everything. We want this team to do the same job as the mantle of Captain America has always done. Give the world some peace of mind, in knowing that there’s a group of individuals ready to take on any threat they might face. I guess the simple question is, will we need to try and trail you to make sure you aren’t going to end up being a threat or are you willing to make a difference?”<br/><br/>Loki nodded his head. He had recalled some of the exploits of the original Captain America and he had to admit that the man had intrigued him back then. He suspect that Thor would have charged in and tried to punch Captain America in the face in order to see if the man would be a good fight; Loki wasn’t that stupid, but he would have been lying if he said that he hadn’t been interested in seeing how well the superhuman would have done against someone from Asgard. Just more proof that the mortals of Midguard had always had the potential for great things when they were given the chance. <br/><br/>Still, as he listened to Fury’s plan he couldn’t help but think about it. There were some merits to it without doubt, but there were some concerns that he felt the need to raise. “Two things before I say anything one way or the other. The first is a matter of jurisdiction; What can and can’t we do as ‘Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ and who are we accountable to if something goes wrong?”<br/><br/>“The second is a matter of publicity. I am...uncomfortable with the idea that a powerful team of extraordinary individuals dedicated to preserving peace and keeping any major threat to the planet at bay would be common knowledge. In part it is a matter of escalation but it also has to with the fact that if the bad guys in question know that we exist, they can start accounting for us within their plans. After all once you know that the security measure is there you can start trying to find weaknesses or blind spots that you can take advantage of in order to defeat it.”<br/> <br/><br/>Fury just nodded. “Anything within the law, you obviously can’t break it. We’re also accountable to the World Council. The World council has representatives from all over the world on it. We have our own organisation in place to repair any damage done while fighting.” The second question was a bit more complicated. <br/><br/>“It’s inevitable in our line of work that the bad guys are going to find out about you, unless you plan on killing them all and I won’t stand for that. What we can do is stop you becoming from public knowledge. While we do have a symbol, like Captain America. I plan to try and keep the rest of the team on the down low as much as possible. Not to mention countless back up choices in terms of replacements. I’m not going to lie, it’s not a flawless plan. You join, you have ideas. You’ve got the experience. I’ll listen to you.”<br/><br/>Loki shrugged a little in return. “There are workarounds I can use to make things a lot more interesting for the bad guys when it comes time to discuss what actually happened afterwards. You make a fair argument and since this is going to be going ahead if I join or not I might as well join and be apart of it. I do ask for three things but they should be easy enough to work out.”<br/><br/>“Firstly, do you know where Tony Stark is currently? I would like to check up on how he is doing personally.” It was a simple enough request; Sure Tony had gotten magically healed from the sounds of it but it was worth making sure he alright anyway. <br/><br/>“The second one might be a bit harder because while I know you have a great deal of influence I suspect you can’t just clap your hands and make this happen, but I want the person in the US military in charge of pursuing the Hulk removed from the project. I believe his name is Ross from what Bruce has let slip. I don’t know the whole story between the two, but from what I’ve seen it’s easy to tell that there is something personal going on there and if what happened in New York is any indication leaving Ross in charge is just going to get people killed.”<br/><br/>Giving his second request time to settle, Loki pushed forwards with the third, more light hearted condition. “Lastly, I would like to discuss the possibility to Shield working out an arrangement with one Bruce Banner. Nothing too fancy, maybe just setting him up somewhere isolated where he can be comfortable and have access to the equipment he needs to research pretty much whatever he wants to in his own time with the odd supply drop to make sure he is all set up. In return Shield gains access to his scientific abilities and directly benefit from the results of his personal projects. Of course the exact details would have to be between you and him but I am more then happy to be the middleman here.” <br/><br/>Wasn’t often terms were dictated to Fury. He forgot how much he hated it. “Stark is wherever Stark goes. I heard that he was taking the shortcut in order to heal so he’s probably getting ready to leave the facility. I’ll have his craft put on hold so that you can go catch him.” He looked down as he typed something into his tablet.<br/><br/>“In terms of Ross and Doctor Banner, that’s something I don’t have the power to do. Your best bet there, is proving yourself and taking your case to the Chief of Staff or even the President of the United States in order to be the one to take Hulk in and what happens with him once we’ve managed to locate him. Ross will follow orders, so will I. In terms of your third request I’m not above putting a good mind to use but I can’t do it unless he gets a pardon from the President. Again, that is something you will need to work on.” He handed Loki a card.<br/><br/>“We’re using these as a means of identification and communication. Just tell it when you’re ready and it’ll relay the coordinates to the facility where we’re going to be basing the team out of. Any final questions?”<br/><br/> <br/><br/></div>"

Helicarrier Alpha, where Hyperion was stationed, happened to be the closest of the helicarriers to New York City when SHIELD got the call. Someone named Quire had reported that he and a fellow metahuman, the one Wilson referred to as Miss America, had taken down a clandestine operation within Bishop Packaging. Allegedly, Mr. Bishop himself had been selling Mutant Growth Hormone that he was buying from another dimension. It had sounded ridiculous at first. But a cursory search of SHIELD data files on Mr. Bishop brought him up on numerous watch lists. Cross referencing the location of Bishop Packaging's headquarters with recent tears in the space time continuum and this Quentin kid had a couple of legs to stand on. That's when Marie Hill decided to send in Zhib-Ran and a specialized team of agents who dealt with matters concerning the multiverse as well as the Mutant Growth Hormone drug. The flight took roughly ten minutes, with the first Quinjet setting down moments before the hour struck.<br/><br/>The monstrosity of metal and wires settled down on the roof of the skyscraper. A trio of SHIELD agents, decked out in full combat gear, stepped confidently down the jet's ramp. The officer took point, his standard issue assault rifle held in his armored hands as he kicked down the emergency access door. The now-opened door revealed a set of dark stairs leading into the service entrance of the penthouse below. The team maneuvered tactically down, breaching the service door with a loud shout. ""Freeze! SHIELD!"" The officer commanded. He waved his weapon towards the few individuals still standing; the agents on his flanks moved to clear the rest of the room. Hyperion floated through the entrance, his feet hovering a foot or so off the ground. ""Lower your weapons, men. Everyone at ease. They're the good guys."" Zhib-Ran said with a wave of his hand and a polite smile. Four more squads made their way into the penthouse from the roof, one by one. They lacked the armor and automatic rifles of the first team; rather, they carried handguns and various types of futuristic equipment. Commanders barked out orders to their subordinates. Agents rushed to and fro, checking on the fallen security guards.<br/><br/>Hyperion dodged gracefully past the SHIELD agents and stood next to the young hero and her mutant telepathic friend. He also made note of the girl in what appeared to be sporting gear. She seemed distraught. Silly humans, they were always crying. What weak and fragile creatures they were; in both body and mind. Well, most of them. Zhib-Ran tried to look as empathetic of her plight as he could. He was a decent enough actor. Anyone who saw through the charade could reasonably guess that his strange behavior was due to his being from a different planet, where the cultural customs and even physiological make-up of his species had to be vastly different from those on earth. Agent Milton waved over one of the unarmored officers. ""This is Agent Baker."" He introduced the woman. She was tall, athletic and muscular. But she looked more genuinely concerned than any of the other agents in the room. ""She's our resident medical officer and psych examiner. She'll do whatever she can to help you, ma'am. I couldn't possibly understand what you're going through.""<br/><br/>With that hopefully dealt with, Hyperion turned toward Miss America. ""I'll be on the roof. Come speak to me whenever you are able."" With that, Hyperion left America to wrap up with Kate. He waited on the roof for (an unspecified amount of time).<br/><br/>Once Miss Chavez finished her little heart to heart with Miss Bishop and came up to the roof, Hyperion didn't waste any time and got down to business.<br/><br/>""Hello, Miss America. Let's not beat around the bush. I'm not just here to take in Mr. Bishop and.."" He paused, sighing. ""Pusher Man...I'm also here as a representative of Captain America and the Avengers Initiative. The Captain seems to think you would make a valuable member of the team. He wants <span class=""bb-i"">your</span> help protecting the world from threats too powerful for any single hero to take down. That is, if you're planning to stick around in our dimension."" Hyperion paused, crossing his arms. ""We could really use your help. There are threats on the horizon that're making Fury nervous. I can take you to Helicarrier Alpha to meet Captain America now. But if you want to take some time to think it over, I understand completely. Joining a team is a big commitment."" Zhib-Ran said with a smile and an awkward cough. ""Uh, by the way..Is there a me where you come from? What's he like?""</div>"

It was as if a huge chunk of her was exposed, a massive piece of armour ripped away. She hadn't counted how many hours ... days ... whatevers ... however long it had been since she'd lost Thor's magical hammer. She couldn't bring herself to hold out her hand and command it fly back to her, a fear rooted inside her that the hammer would no longer listen, no longer work for her. She'd need to return to Stark towers and lift it up herself before her nerves would settle.<br/><br/>She'd changed her mind about her surrender halfway through her arrest and easily overpowered the SHIELD agents she'd willingly submitted to only moments before. As Loki and Stark were taken away she'd fled and with no tech or paper trail to leave behind, SHIELD quickly lost track of her. After the first few hours of running she began to feel guilty. Loki was a coward who'd fled punishments and escaped prisons, she was no different, and yet ... on this planet he was the good guy ... So she just kept running, hoping her thoughts couldn't catch up with her but they inevitably always did. <br/><br/>Dwight was losing his mind, sick with worry but no one could give him any answers, no one knew where Tarene had took off to and she didn't dare go to him because SHIELD would find her there. SHIELD had questioned him but it was clear that although he was on her side and helping her out, she'd acted on her own and left him completely in the lurch. He couldn't tell SHIELD anything new, and SHIELD didn't give him any info either.  <br/><br/>Running got dreadfully lonely dreadfully fast. Although she'd spent months, years even, wandering on her own when she'd first come to Midgard ... that had been quite some time ago and she'd grown fond of her small routines and familiarities. Her neighbours, though they thought she was a bit mad, were pleasant and she liked to chat with them in the halls whenever they crossed her path. She saw Dwight regularly and had even made friends with some of his friends. Now she hadn't seen her apartment nor any familiar faces and she'd missed those things immensely. <br/><br/>She eventually made her way back to New York city ... the only familiar place she knew, but didn't hand herself in ... SHIELD would catch up with her eventually and she had no energy left to run. She was thin, not skinny-thin, but certainly thinner than before, and filthy. If Thor, or Sif or even Loki of all people, saw her, they'd be ashamed to call her Asgardian. Her clothes were ruined and her hair a mess and she was visibly exhausted. She could still bench-press a cement truck, but if she were to fight Stark again, he'd probably stand a greater chance at giving her a bit of a beating than before, not that he'd utterly defeat her, even without Mjolnir she was a formidable foe. <br/>Now ... She was a shell of her former self. <br/><br/>She peered up at Stark tower and debated going up to seize Mjolnir once more, she knew it would still be there ... Instead she took a detour to the museum. She'd pay Dwight a visit and commit one last crime before she truly changed her ways. <br/>Dwight was ecstatic to see her ... but not so pleased to find her swarmed by security, alarms blazing, museum visitors fleeing ... SHe'd smashed through the glass that protected a precious ancient sword, none other than the Sif's sword, and was now weilding said-sword.  <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Good to see you again, friend""</span> she said, though between his horror, anger, and overwhelming joy, Dwight was speechless. He just about managed to warn the security to stand down.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You had me worried sick, where were you? You look frightful what happened? Wheres your hammer? Did you kill Loki?""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I'll answer in great depth another time ... Loki is not the enemy, I see that now, Mjolnir is ...resting for now. I need to borrow this. I will pay you back I promise.""</span><br/>Dwight didn't bother explain that 1. The ancient sword was a priceless artefact and 2. if she had money, there was no way she could afford it anyway. There was no point arguing with her on that. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Where are you going this time? Good grief I can't keep up. Take this!""</span> he said, pressing a cell phone into her hand, of course she had no idea how to use it.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""What does this do?""</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""It's a cell phone, you can contact me with it when you go off on adventures. Ask someone to teach you to use it, but for goodness sake, when you figure it out, USE IT!""</span><br/>Tarene smiled, she was a shadow, but part of her seemed to be her usual vibrant larger than life self for just a split second.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I shall.""</span><br/><br/>She assumed Stark would be lurking in his tower now ... she could properly apologise, figure out how to help out ... she could do right by the world this time. Firstly, she stopped back at her apartment, the locks had been changed, but the door was flimsy. She washed, ate, and changed and already felt a great deal better. Her brief exile had given her time to clear her head and this was her fresh start. Again... It would go better than the other time. Tarene was herself this time, and she knew deep down it was her job to do good, even if that meant fighting for the same team as Loki, she still wasn't entirely sure how pure his motives were, and didn't dare trust him with a guppy much less something more significant. Perhaps in time he'd earn her trust, but that would take a very very long time. Right now, her first goal was to find out who was in charge, there seemed to be lots of ""leaders"" but who was in charge of everything? Who was the ""Odin"" or ""Thor"" of Midgard? Tarene wasn't a leader, she was a warrior, without someone to issue command, she was at a loss regarding what to do. <br/><br/>Refreshed and dressed in civillian clothing for a change, she stepped out of her apartment and decided to take a break before beginning her new mission. She indulged in her FAVOURITE beverage in all of Midgard, a decaf Mocha-latte at the cafe on the corner past 5th street. Sif's sword was tucked away in her backpack, it half stuck-out but no one seemed to notice really, she could have been one of those actors from the local theatre lugging around a prop, or a LARP enthusiast or cosplayer, no one cared. It was sheathed in its scabbard, its true deadly sharpness hidden away so no one had to know she was armed with a real weapon. She debated her next move, returning to Stark Tower ... seeking out someone from SHIELD ... finding someone else to run with ... each had their own advantages and disadvantages. </div>"

As she held out her hand toward the fat blob of mass and held her other free hand to the temple of her forehead, her long red locks swirled upward around her shoulders and body majestically as if she were a mermaid in the sea. Her emerald eyes sparkled with a fiery glint as she then snapped her hand back and let the Blob free fall to the ground below. Hopefully the force of his gravitational impact would render him unconscious.<br/><br/>Then she turned just in time to see a bright flash of light heading straight for her. Thinking quickly on her feet, she had no time to move or dodge the attack. She had to rely on her powers of telekinesis in order to block it or avert the beam away from her. Was she strong enough to manipulate light molecules at such a level? Little did she know her body was heating up, exponentially. Psychic fire was beginning to build up within her very mutant DNA. She didn't even realise that as she extended her hand out to form a psychokinetic energy shield around her, that her body was slightly glowing in response to such a focused manoeuvre. <br/><br/>However, as the light bolt recoiled off the invisible shield and into the ether, Jean did not harbour any feelings of resentment toward the blonde superwoman from which the attack came. She instead, could feel Carol's embarrassment, as if her crimson cheeks were not indicator enough, Jean's telepathic sensors were resonating with Carol's emotional state. She could sense Carol was confused and did not mean to attack the red head. And so Jean merely let her hand slip to her curvy hip and regarded Ms Marvel with a warmer expression. She was used to dealing with mutants who had not yet fully comprehended their powers and mishaps were bound to happen. She was just lucky enough to spot it in time before being knocked off her feet. Despite being a level five mutant and a formidable opponent, Jean wasn't physically that strong to withstand an attack from Ms Marvel. <br/><br/>'Don't be embarrassed. I know it you did not mean to harm me.' Came Jean's soothing voice in Carol's mind like a gentle wave washing over you. She rarely invaded people's minds but this situation called for it in order to calm Carol down. Jean then gave her a small smile. “I'm Jean Grey. And we're the X-men. And we help all who do not know the extent of their powers.” She spoke aloud after she looked around and saw that most of the Brotherhood had been dispatched. <br/><br/>She then took out a small business card from her black long trench coat pocket and gently levitated it toward Carol. “Should you ever need to seek us out again for support or help. You can find us there. The Professor makes for a good mentor.” Jean added as she saw Storm and Beast readying to depart the scene now their work was done. Jean's body still felt warm, she felt like was in the tropics and a bead of sweat trickled from her brow. <br/><br/>She wasn't going to push Ms Marvel into anything, she was merely there to open the channels of invitation and extend forth their helping hand. After all, that's what the X-men did. She looked around once again. “Pietro? You ready to go?” She asked as her eyes darted the scene for her speedy comrade. “Well you know where we are if you need us, Ma'am.” Jean waved her goodbyes as she levitated her team mates over to the Blackbird and they departed the area back to the mansion. Little did Jean Grey know that later that night in the mansion, something <span class=""bb-i"">sinister</span> was awaiting her....<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y28/anime_vicky/Valkyrie%20logo%20self%20made_zpsqlnkwmth.png""/></div><br/><br/>Valkyrie just shook her head at Tony's defensive remarks toward Sam. She just wished the two would get along. She was good friends with them both and hated this feeling of animosity and tension within the air. It sure brought her spirits down. Her expression was one of sorrow as she watched Stark leave the room.<br/><br/>Upon turning to Captain America she blinked at his tale of a <span class=""bb-i"">telepathic pterodactyl</span>? Was she even hearing him right? Did Hulk give her a bigger bonk on the head than she had thought? <br/><br/>“Well, I'm glad you're back safe and sound now, Sam.” Formalities were not required when it was just the two of them alone in a room, without their Director. She could feel more casual and at ease around Agent Wilson than some of the others. After all, he taught her how to use her wings and soar through the air like a graceful bird. Or maybe that came with the natural agility she harboured as an Asgardian. <br/><br/>She felt that going after Tony was the only option now to help sway him into this new team project that she had already had the heads up from Natasha previously. She nodded at Sam as he left the room and she looked toward the mirror, catching a glimpse of her slightly messy wavy locks that cascaded down her shoulders and ended at her rear. “Hopefully, I can catch him before Fury wants to see me as well.” She mused and tightened her fist to get some blood flowing in her circulation again. She felt weak but her energy was slowly restoring. She, however, sensed another Asgardian presence nearby that caused her some discomfort. And not like Amora before...<br/> <br/>She shook it off and then ran for the door. She just hoped she wouldn't have to bump into Ross either. Or she may end up throwing him over board now she found her spunk. She ran out to the landing bay where they were preparing Tony's shuttle. “Tony! Wait!” Now out in the open she opened her beautiful white wings and gently glided over to him and landed softly without her boots even making a sound. Still in just her tank top and shorts, not having the time to change into her usual SHIELD uniform from waking up in the medical bay, having Ross rant at her, having Tony demand to see her right away and then having to catch up with him before he left.<br/><br/>“Please...don't leave things this way. Captain America...Sam...he's a good guy. And I think this new team is something special you could really be a part of. And besides, I'd love having you, and Pepper, around as consultants.” Victoria flashed that warm and gentle smile. “Just promise me that you'll think about it?” She asked with those pretty big blue eyes. “Pretty please?” This was one of the rare occasions you would see Agent Parrinton truly be herself. And much more like the Sigyn of the past. A Goddess of Fidelity. An always loyal and trustworthy friend. With that she placed both her hands on Tony's shoulders and patted him. She presented him with her own personal SHIELD card. “In case you lost my old one.” She joked, she knew Tony knew how to reach her if he wanted. His new Iron Man AI could pretty much pinpoint her anywhere in the world it seemed. <br/><br/>And she turned around to head back inside the SHIELD helicarrier in case Fury decided to call upon her shortly for any Avengers Initiative preps. Or if Ross wanted to send her out with his special ops on a wild Hulk chase. Again. </div>"

""Is this it? All that exists of my blood?"" He chuckled. ""At least, all of the stuff here that exists outside of my body."" He offered the Doctor a kindly smile as he eyed up the vial of blood. The power in this one vial... it was more than anyone could ever imagine. If someone ever found a way to replicate it the power could destroy the Earth. It pained him to know that that wasn't an over-exaggeration, it was quite likely that such could be the fate of the world. He sighed again, this time a sad sigh.<br/><br/>""Yes, it's quite fascinating. Preliminary tests indicate your blood has high levels of-"" Banner raised his hand to stop the Doctor. Then lowered it again after a moments thought. <br/><br/>""What computer are these results on?""<br/><br/>The Doctor looked taken aback. ""Oh, they aren't on any."" He tapped a file. ""I haven't had time to transfer them over yet."" He handed over the file to Bruce. ""I'm sure you'll find it fascinating, from what I can tell you should be dead! Instead somehow here you are. Healthy as a horse.""<br/><br/>Bruce smiled. ""Yes well, I need to take this data with me."" The smile dropped from his face as he finished speaking, this was no longer a joke. It was deadly serious, he couldn't leave any data here. It was bad enough that he wouldn't get a chance to wipe the cameras of his image but he couldn't give S.H.I.E.L.D or Ross anything to go on. S.H.I.E.L.D had honourable intentions he'd give them that, but he didn't doubt that they'd try to turn this power to try and save this world. Ross, well. Ross wanted what every general wanted. To destroy his enemies. The greed in that mans eyes, Bruce had watched recordings of Hulks rampage at Vista Verde. <br/><br/>On Ross' face was not a look of horror like everyone elses, but a look of longing and excitement. He had seen the power of the Hulk that day and now he wanted it for himself. Part of Bruce wished he could give it to him, get rid of this curse. The shadow that he couldn't evade even in the shade. It was itching at his skin clawing to get to the surface ever since the promise had been broken. Hulk wanted back out, and it took everything in Bruces power not to let him come to the foreground.<br/><br/>That is why, when the Doctor stood to block his way Bruce sighed again. ""Please Doctor, you don't want to make me angry.""<br/><br/>""I can't just let you leave with my work, this could be revolutionary!""<br/><br/>Bruce just ignored him. ""You won't like me when I'm angry. Please move."" The Doctor did move, but instead walked over and picked up a phone.<br/><br/>""Yes, this is Doctor Crawford. I have a patient being uncooperative in my lab. Please send security right away, and contact the authorities. He has threatened to become violent."" Bruce looked at him, genuine pleading in his eyes. <br/><br/>""Please Doctor, just let me go. This is a hospital, with the ill and the injured. I don't want anything to happen."" It was the Doctors turn to chuckle, and Bruce didn't really like the sound of it.<br/><br/>""My dear Doctor Banner-"" The surprise must have been evident on Bruces face as the Doctors face shone for a second. ""-Yes, I know who you are. You're pretty infamous, especially within those of us who have worked extensively in the field of radiation. You are going to be the cure to every ailement known to man. Whether you like it or not.""<br/><br/>Bruce just sighed. Did none of them understand the danger with what they played? It was like giving a three year old access to a nuclear arsenal. Yet every step he took, every turn. Someone thought they knew the Hulk better, thought they understood it better. Felt they could control it and bend it to their will. Bruce knew that as much as Hulk was strong, as much as he was dangerous he was equally uncontrolable. Nobody told Hulk what to do except Hulk. He knew, he'd tried after all. Why wouldn't he have had? Bruce didn't want to be remembered as the Hulk, as a monster. He had tried to turn the Hulk into a force of nature for good. Into a hero.<br/><br/>Of course he couldn't quite remember what happened but it <span class=""bb-i"">hadn't</span> worked. Hulk needed to be eliminated, not controlled or studied. Though at the same time, Hulk was his only way out of this situation. It was the ultimate dilemna. He could be captured and risk someone learning how to recreate the Hulk and risk the world, or he could let the Hulk out and risk everyone in this hospital.<br/><br/>He silently cursed the experiment that brought him here, to a choice he couldn't make. Had he been a military man the choice would have obviously been that the World was the better choice but to him? All life was precious. Who was he to chose between one group of people and another. It all came down to one thing, who was he?<br/><br/>Doctor Bruce Banner? The Hulk? Or maybe, something else?</div>"

It’s not my job to keep track of the blue imp.”  Peter retorted to the X-Man’s question.  As he had already said, why would Peter know where Nightcrawler was?  He and Bobby have been looking for Angelica this whole time.<br/><br/>	“Just give yourself up now so that we can solve this without anyone getting hurt.  If you don’t, well, don’t say I did not warn you.”  <br/><br/>	“What are you even talking about?  Don’t you all live in Westchester?  How would I even get up there?”  However, Peter saw that Cyclops was not quite giving his full attention to him.  Instead, the X-Man was pressing a device on his torso, which seemed like a communicator.  While Peter could clearly see that Cyclops’ mouth was moving, he could not quite discern what he was saying.  Nevertheless, even though Peter could not hear what Cyclops said, he soon found out what the gist of it was.<br/><br/>	Out from one of the nearby alleyway walked out a giant of a man.  His skin seemed as if it were made out of many bands of shiny silver-colored metal.  With each step, Peter could hear the heavy thumps of the man’s feet striking the ground.<br/><br/>	“I don’t want to hurt you, Spider-Man.”  Colossus told the red and blue clad teenager, “I would break my heart seeing Angel break into tears over this.  However, I hope she’ll see the necessity if you refused to cooperate.”<br/><br/>	As Bobby stumbled out of the fog as it began to clear, his eyes widening at the sight before him. Where had once been the Rider, their most recent arch-nemesis it would seem, now stood an all so familiar face. Colossus. Questions plagued Bobby’s mind as he stopped in his tracks, looking awkwardly between Piotr and Peter. That was when the sight of Cyclops above caught Bobby’s eye. <br/><br/>	It would, that Scott and Piotr were under the assumption that webhead here had done something to Kurt, the X-men’s lovable teleporter. Bobby laughed out loud before loudly telling his teammates that this was impossible.<br/><br/>	“What the hell are you two whackos on about? Pe… Spider-Man’s been with me all day!” Bobby stated loudly, placing his icy body between the two Peters.<br/><br/>	“Iceman, let us handle this.”  Cyclops spoke to the young, ice-covered X-Man.  “We have video evidence showing that Spider-Man kidnapped Nightcrawler from right under our nose.  Stand aside so we can solve this.”<br/><br/>	“Video evidence?”  Peter marveled at what Cyclops had said with a sarcastic tone, “Please don’t tell me that you have ‘evidence’ equivalent to what Jameson usually throws at the general public!  I was at least hoping some people wouldn’t just accept his slander without scrutinizing his arguments!”<br/><br/>	Bobby shifted nervously from foot to foot as he listened to Cyclops speak. How on Earth did he have video evidence? There was no way Peter could have webbed all the way over to Westchester and back during that toilet break earlier. Sure it was a number two, but still! Something here was fishy, that was for sure. What could Bobby do though? Going up against Scott and Piotr was suicide. Even with Spidey’s help. Besides, they were his teammates! <br/><br/>	No. That didn’t matter now. Peter was innocent. He couldn’t back down now.<br/><br/>	“Cyclops, let's be calm here, okay?” He said, trying to sound threatening, despite the fact that inside he was bricking it. “You’re not going to lay a finger on him!”<br/><br/>	“Iceman, step out of the way.”  Cyclops commanded his fellow X-Man, point his arm in the direction in which he wanted Bobby to go.  “Anyways, what does an <span class=""bb-i"">innocent</span> man have to hide?”<br/><br/>	“Well, do you really blame me with all the slander that Jameson spouts about me?  Whenever he even mentions my name, let alone blame me for something that I didn’t do, Jameson makes Fox News look like a respectable news outlet!”<br/><br/>	However, before Cyclops, or anyone else for the matter of fact, could make a response to Spider-Man, a small, spherical device rolled under Iceman’s feet.  Mere seconds after the contraption had stopped spinning on the ground, a blinding flash of light radiated from the sphere, a light similar to the flash grenade that Firestar’s kidnapper had used.<br/><br/>	Once the four superhumans regained their proper vision after the flash grenade attack, they all saw the dark figure whom Spider-Man and Iceman had been fighting up until Cyclops had interrupted the confrontation.  His black cape was billowing in the wind as the Rider stood there, folding his arms across his chest.<br/><br/>	“You all are imbeciles.”  The electronically scrambled voice said, “It is obvious that someone is trying to set us all up and it seems to be working.”<br/><br/>	“And who are you?”  Cyclops demanded from the shadowy figure.<br/><br/>	“That doesn’t matter.  What does matter is that if you’re missing some mutants, I would check out the local branch of the Brand Corporation.  Word from the criminal grapevine says that they might be developing a cure for Mutants.”  After the Rider revealed this vital information to Spider-Man and the X-Men, he turned his back and began to walk away.<br/><br/>	“Wait?  You’re going to just walk away?”  Spider-Man said.<br/><br/>	“I work alone.”  The Rider muttered to the four of them over his shoulder, only momentarily glancing back at them.  Then, he dashed off into the darkness of one of the alleyways, securing his own retreat.  For the most part, the Rider had only been dealing with the maggia, but since superhumans have been popping up around the country and the world, it looks like he will need to adapt to the times so that, when some superpowered wacko emerges, he would not be surprised.  Anyways, the Rider had more pertinent matters on hand than to run around with brightly-colored vigilantes.</div>"

Saw members of The Brotherhood glancing over at Pietro's direction, and there was some kind of look between them.  Understanding?  Contempt?  Either way Pietro sighed as he watched them all leave, glad to be done with work for the night hopefully.  Still a sudden burst of light caught his, and needless to say Jean Gray's, as Ms Marvel shot a beam towards her.  Even though the hero in question looked embarrassed Pietro wasn't having any of that crap.  Immediately going up to her in a burst of speed.<br/><br/>“Hey the fuck is your problem lady?!  You Could've killed her!”  Pietro jabbed a finger into her chest as he vocally gave her hell.  “Oh don't tell me you're just another piece of sh...”  Before Pietro could use another part of his sparkling vocabulary on Ms. Marvel both Storm and Beast pulled him aside.  “Pietro enough!  The poor girl has already apologized!”  Storm sternly told Quicksilver had to quietly grit his teeth a bit.  Sighing finally and holding up a hand to Ms. Marvel.  “Sorry...”  He meekly said aloud before Beast spoke up.<br/><br/>“Speaking of your unprofessional behavior I find it both a bit puzzling and troublesome that you didn't engage The Brotherhood...”  Beast let the intention of what he was insinuated linger for a moment as Pietro was both stunned by the accusation and having to realize he never did in fact touch any of them.  Sure he clocked the fatty in the head with a bat, but fat boy doesn't count.<br/><br/>“Hey I was taking care of the crowd ya ape, don't start accusing me of...”  Pietro's phone rang as he growled angry to himself.  He wanted a nice night of loud angry music and alcohol and instead his getting this garbage thrown at him.  He held up a hand to Beast, “Hold on its Cyclops...”  He told him, thankful it was one of the few people who'd call him that would warrant an end to that little investigation by Beast.  “Whats up?”  Pietro asked, Cyclops' orders to come back to New York City were one thing, but apparently something big is going down and they might have an answer to Spider-Man kidnapping Nightcrawler.  Pietro normally isn't thrilled about extra work, but needless to say the questions about everything were pretty inticing, plus now Pietro was in a fighting mood, and while fighting Beast would be wreckless (not to mention a great way to get kicked off the team).  He could instead channel the fury onto something else by the sound of things.<br/><br/>“Gotta run, Cyclops needs me in New York for the Nightcrawler situation.  See ya.”  Pietro gave a faint wave before being gone in a blur.  He knew he shouldn't be the way he was with Beast back there, however this has been a frustrating night.  He should at least say something to the fur ball later.  Either way Quicksilver didn't need as long to get back to New York, seeing as how he didn't see much of a need to stop by and 'borrow' any equipment this time.<br/><br/>He screeched to a top next to Cyclops and Colossus, looking over at Bobby and his BFF Spider-Man.  Man Spider-Man's costume looked like one thing in the pictures but good God it was bright in person.  Then again based on what his heard about the web slinger subtly wasn't the guy's strong suit.  Then again Pietro wasn't really in a position to accuse someone of that.  <br/><br/>“Business is all clear for the mutant hater in Boston.”  Pietro gave a thumbs up to Cyclops who didn't look impressed.  Then again he never usually did.  “So Beast told me, along with your behavior which we'll be having a discussion about later.”  Cyclops stated simply.  Pietro rolled his eyes to himself at the news, great... because tonight was going so well already.  Now he gets to listen to a Cyclops speech.  Fucking joy.</div>"

He looked at the vial of blood, this was all they had. Assuming that security was far enough away he might just have a way out of this before this Doctor got himself into trouble or... S.H.I.E.L.D or Ross found out that he was here. He really couldn't linger anywhere for any amount of time after all. The longer he spent in one place the greater his chances of discovery were, and the greater the chance that either he was going to get captured and get in trouble or that Hulk was going to make an appearance and cause trouble. The papers, he hadn't read one since this had started. He could only imagine the things they were saying about him. Hell, that J.Jonah Jamieson from the Daily Bugle was probably having a right go at him, I mean if he tore Spider-Man to shreds what chance di dhe stand?<br/><br/>No, he needed to get out of here. ""Hey Doc..."" He threw the vial. ""-Catch."" Crawford naturally went for the vial as Bruce bolted for the door, months of running had built his muscles up to the point where while a few months ago he would never have been able to make it in time. He heard the vial smash, he smiled slightly as he did. While the blood would still be testable it would be sufficiently corrupted that it would take the good Doctor months to do so. By that time he'd surely have a cure so that if he did use it as a cure for disease when the inevitable <span class=""bb-i"">side effects</span> emerged he'd be more than ready. <br/><br/>Security came round the corner, and Bruce just lowered his head looking down and to the left where the floor met the wall to keep his face out of their visual. He doubted they'd recognise him but you couldn't be too careful these days - apparently that was the case anyway. He then came across a door marked laundry, pushing himself backwards into it the stench hit him first. He didn't envy anyone that worked in this room. The humidity alone could probably kill someone from exposure, and the smell... it was less than pleasant. Though the mixture of stool, urine, blood, pus and other excretions weren't going to exactly make a room smell like roses. He skipped out all the dirty clothes, looking for a clean batch. He would have opened his mouth with an <span class=""bb-i"">ah-ha</span> when he found them... if that wouldn't have proved deadly.<br/><br/>Regular trousers, shirt and a purple hoody. Purple wasn't exactly his colour but it fit so... it would have to do.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_small/11/117763/2815109-thor__600___page_43.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Doom paced the room. Everything was almost ready. A Doombot was currently impersonating him at the UN, announcing the concept of a Latverian Union and no doubt taking in all the applications. Especially with the fact that Latveria now boasted that each citizen within it's borders recieved <span class=""bb-i"">free</span> electirity. Tony Stark may feel like a good guy, yet despite all his attempts at being a good person he was still a corporate pig. Making tools for the people, and charging a fortune for them. No better than the likes of that Steve Jobs fellow. Though Steve Jobs had been significantly less annoying than Tony Stark... he also understood how to offer someone the respect they deserved. He was yet to speak with Stark, and would have to upon his return. There were several parts of his plan that could use someone like him.<br/><br/>Though for now he had another place to me, or rather another time. He eyed the machine, it filled the whole room. Transmission rods pointed towards the centre podium which would electrify his molecules and send him forward in time, or backwards if he were to so chose it. No doubt he would travel back, there were so many mysteries he had to solve in the past after all. For now however, the future was his destination. Three hundred years being his target destination. Technically he could chose a time period much closer however he felt that three hundred was a nice round number, given enough time for him to make his mark on the world and for the world to continue on in however he had shaped it. He had no doubt that he had saved the world, it would be better under his rule after all. No, this was to see how well his legacy had lasted. So that he could take any measures required in order to ensure that the peace and prosperity he would create would last as long as possible.<br/><br/>He stood in the centre of the podium, lights flickered. Not just in the castle but instead all over Latveria as the machine powered up. The entire room began to shake, electrical discharges flew around the room hitting the walls scoring and burning them as they amde contact. A poor Doombot that happened to be in the room was hit by a bolt, being of the more basic sentinel variety it exploded as it was overcharged. Then in one final flash of light he was gone. The room dimmed for a couple of seconds...<br/><br/>Then out of nowhere, there was a blinding flash and kneeling on the Podium, torn cape and cracked armour knelt Victor Von Doom. A doombot came running into the room. Doom looked up at it. ""Damned it, the machine failed!""<br/><br/>There was a shadow in the corner of the room, neither Doom the Doombots or the sensors noticed it. It was almost a ghost...<br/></div>"

It was something that had terrified him as a child, leading him to stuff his head between pillows on rainy nights. That was before his grandfather arrived, however. That was before Stick taught him to hone his senses. With a deep breath, Matt Murdock centered himself. Instead of the rain, he heard the echoes as it bounced off his surroundings. The chaos melted away as he gained a clear ""view"" of his surroundings. He could virtually see every cracked seam of tar on the roof and the splashes of water as they fell. <br/><br/>It wasn't seeing. Not really. Nothing would ever bring his sight back. That was something the doctors made sure he knew all those years ago. But this was the next best thing. Like a bat, Matt knew where he was going. He knew where to make his next step. He knew how to judge a leap. Most importantly, he knew where to throw a punch or where to land a kick. He had been doing quite a bit a both over the last few months thanks to these extracurricular activities. Sure, he was sore in court the next day more often than not, but the Kingpin's men were behind bars. <br/><br/>That was the most important thing.<br/><br/>He rolled on the balls of his feet, taking a deep breath before taking off across the rooftop. When he came to the edge, he kicked off and flung himself flipping through the air. He landed deftly on the roof across from the original building, slipping only slightly in the wet conditions. His sensei would not have been happy with that. Sloppiness could be deadly in the heat of battle.<br/><br/>Stick wasn't here though. He hadn't been in a long time. Ever since Matt originally told him that he was going to clean up the city in the confines of the law. That was before Murdock realized how truly gone the city was. That was before the war between Kingpin, the Rose, and Silvermane. Before Hell's Kitchen became a warzone.<br/><br/>""I'll see you later, man,"" a voice said as the door to the dive bar below creaked open. As the man stepped from underneath the overhang covering the entrance, he cursed as the driving rain began to soak him. ""Fuck this shit.""<br/><br/>He pulled a hood up over his head and trudged into the back alley next to the bar, mumbling as he did. From above, Daredevil stalked along the roof, making sure there were no other goons walking along with him. There were none. He was alone.<br/><br/>With another flip, the Devil was behind him. The vigilante grabbed his head and slammed him into the alley wall. The man stumbled back and fumbled for a gun in his waistband. With a flick of his wrist, Daredevil tossed his billy club at the dealer's hand, knocking it away. At the impact, Matt could hear several bones in the hand shatter. Murdock delivered a strong strike to the sternum, knocking the wind out of him so he couldn't scream before binding his hands.<br/><br/>""What the hell are you waiting for, freak!?"" the man who spat at the vigilante. ""I ain't telling you a thing!""<br/><br/>Joe D'Antonio was a drug dealer who peddled his poison to the high schools in the area, using students to sell directly to the others. Matt had managed to find him through one of said kids. He hadn't hurt the young man, of course. Kids were easy to scare. But D'Antonio thought he was a street hero. He had killed men in the service of the Kingpin. He had fought in the turf wars. He wasn't going to break by some intimidation.<br/><br/>Luckily, there were other ways to make street trash talk.<br/><br/>""Oh, you'll talk,"" Matt spun his billy club in his hand. ""Or you won't be able to by the time I'm done. Where do your drugs come from?"" <br/><br/>""Screw you, man,"" he growled.<br/><br/>Matt grabbed the injured hand with one of his own, covering his opponent's mouth with the other, stifling a yell. Daredevil felt the splintered bones shift under the pressure of his grip, ""Now, I'll ask again. Where do your drugs come from?""<br/><br/>Daredevil put more and more pressure on the injured man's hand. He could hear the man's heart racing as pain shot through his body. Matt had to be careful not to send him into shock. He let off, and Joe let out a yelp of pain, ""Fine...fine. I don't know who I get 'em from. I get a shipment every Tuesday. That's all I know. Someone recruited me. I said yes. I get me orders every Tuesday. That's all I know man. Please.""<br/><br/>Murdock untied the man, who collapsed to the alley floor. When he looked up, the vigilante was gone.</div>"

In no time he managed to GPS a number that showed up several times just before the lawyer's abduction from the plane a day earlier. Once he got a location he exited the apartment via the window and took off into the air with seagulls hanging around the bay area. Flying back towards the city, the location the GPS lead Archangel to was under a small bridge where it seemed two men, the lawyer AND 'Griffin', were in some sort of stasis field. Somebody, or some<span class=""bb-i"">thing</span>, was shifting into the Griffin...<br/><br/>""What the hell is going on here?!"" Warren yelled getting the creature's attention. <br/><br/>The alien Skrull finished shifting, sprouting wings similar to Griffin on it's own back.<br/><br/>""I get to steal three identities in one day? This is a new record..."" the Skrull bantered.<br/><br/>Archangel leaped back and hovered, flapping his huge wings preparing for an aerial confrontation. That's when out of seemingly nowhere a guy in green and red punched the shapeshifter right in the jaw flooring him beside the two guys in the stasis field. <br/><br/>""Hey! I could've just punched him if that's all it took!"" Archangel commented on the more seasoned alien hunter.<br/><br/>""I can punch through brick walls, doubt you've got it in you bird-boy."" 3D Man commented back pulling out his cell phone to call his older brother and the clean-up/containment crew. <br/><br/>""They call me 3D Man, by the way, because of the glowing red and green eyes..."" Derek said kind of awkwardly, ""..if you ever run across any of these guys, give me a shout. I'm sure we'll see each other around. Heroes and costumed nut-jobs all over this city it seems...""<br/><br/>""Will do, I go by Archangel... if it matters..."" Warren replied, kinda bummed he didn't take down the villain while landing down next to the other hero and the three other individuals.<br/><br/>3D Man stepped aside and used the phone for a few moments, and before he hung up a two van crew showed up along with a hummer. His older brother got out of the hummer and instructed the soldiers and clean-up crew. Warren kinda stepped away and let the men do their thing and he could've swore one of them winked at the unconscious Skrull as they placed restraints on him. Archangel chalked it up to still being a noob when it came to heroics. His first confrontation he didn't do much, but he did manage to save that one plane passenger from falling to their death. He was grateful he finally met another hero, and one that seemed to have his **** together.<br/><br/>""You should get a weapon or something, man. Gotta be a little more versatile in battle with these kinda enemies.. you're new at this aren't you?"" Derek asked walking back over to Warren.<br/><br/>""I planned on looking into it. These guys friends of yours?"" Archangel asked.<br/><br/>""Yeah, my brother works for a group affiliated with the government locating and capturing what we believe to be aliens trying to infiltrate different organizations. My powers were a result of escaping one of their starships."" 3D Man explained.<br/><br/>""I just grew wings the same time I did hair on my face..."" Warren said with a bit of a laugh, ""I'd better call it a day and get back to work. I'll see you around, 3DM!""<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

As if Shang-Chi wasn't agitated enough, the contemptuous avatar of the Iron Fist, Shao-Yu the Undying, resides within him.

NO LOVE!</span></span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Wild Style Lounge, NY</span></div> <br/><br/>Flint Macintosh. A 45 year old former world champion turned bottom wrung fight promoter. He was the hometown hero in his heyday. They called him ""The Dagger"" because of his dagger-like jab that used to slice his opponents faces up in the ring. Funny how the name took on a whole new meaning once he hung his gloves up. Flint went into the business as a promoter hoping to ""clean the sport up"" and ""make sure the fighters are treated fairly."" Ten years in this business and he's done more harm than good. From bribing judges, to paying fighters to lose their fights on purpose, and cutting said fighters' pay because of ""promoting fees"". It didn't take long for Flint to go from hometown hero, to rotten sleaze ball. You'd think shortchanging trained professional fighters would make for a stupid occupational hazard, but the old lion is still a lion, and his fangs are deadlier than ever.<br/><br/>""You want another one?"" The bartender said, eyeing the new patron that Flint brought in with him. The newbie had a baby face look, but the guy was built like a tank. Celtic designs were tattooed on the sides of his shaved Mohawk. <br/><br/>""Nah, Marky."" Flint cut in, sitting down next to the young man who made the ex champ look like a child by size comparison. ""He's cut off. My boy Tiger Blood here is training for a fight.""<br/><br/>""That never stopped you, Dagger!"" The bartender laughed as he brought out a bottle of whiskey from under the table. The guy supposedly named Tiger Blood grinned, but Flint wasn't amused. <br/><br/>""Damn straight, so keep it goin."" Flint grabbed Tiger Blood's glass and set it down on his own coaster. Tiger Blood groaned, but Flint raised his hand with the click of his tongue. ""You win four world class titles and defend em 23 times, then you can do whatever the hell you want. Right now, you don't even have a dime to ya name."" <br/><br/>Tiger Blood shamefully lowered his head, but after Flint took his shot of whiskey, the promoter drew in close and slapped the back of his shoulder. ""Hey, don't worry kid. Before you know it your face is gonna be plastered all over New York so damn much, you're gonna get sick of lookin at ya self. You won't even need a god damn mirror, you'll be so popular!"" Tiger Blood shook his head as he was being reassured. <br/><br/>""Just take a look at some of those bums from tonight's fight card."" Flint continued, gesturing to the bartender for another refill. ""You've got more talent in ya left nut than anyone in there. O'Donnell ain't got nothin on ya. Hell, anyone could beat that little Asian guy he fought."" <br/><br/>Tiger Blood shook his head, mumbling incoherently and smiling right after. Flint busted up laughing. ""You're damn right. Hell, my grandma could've beaten that Shang-Chi bum, and she's swimmin with the fishes!"" Flint said. They both laughed. <br/><br/>The bartender and Tiger Blood watched as Flint raised his shot glass. ""Cheers!"" Flint yelled, turning now to face Tiger Blood's entourage that was strewn about the VIP section of the bar. They've been racking up Flint's tab with shot-after-shot, but the promoter didn't mind. He'll be profiting off of his budding prospect in the same way Tiger Blood's entourage is leeching off of him now. The big bucks were coming, and Flint has every intention of shortchanging his fighter, even if it gets him bankrupt and back out on the streets. It wouldn't be the first time he's done it.  ""To the future undisputed heavyweight champion of the world!""<br/><br/>There was a big crash, followed by loud screams from the clubbers downstairs. Tiger Blood's entourage peered down from the balcony, pointing and hollering. <br/><br/>""Oh shit! Guys check this out!"" One of them called out to Tiger Blood and Flint. They both looked at each other, puzzled, and then casually walked over to the balcony. Crowds of people were stampeding away from the violent chaos. Bodies were being flung across the room. <br/><br/>""What's going o--"" Flint gasped and went into panic mode. ""Shit."" <br/><br/>In that moment, Flint locked eyes with a madman in medieval armor. He was swinging a giant mace around with no regard for human life. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://cmro.travis-starnes.com/images/characters/war_yore.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>""DAGGER!!!"" The armored man screamed from the top of his lungs, pointing his mace now up at Flint. ""TIME TO COLLECT WHAT'S MINE!"" <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><br/>Just as the three bouncers were charging at Shang-Chi from all sides, the double doors of the front entrance busted wide open. People swarmed out in a dazed panic. The bouncers immediately switch gears to the more pressing matter at hand. <br/><br/>""Hey what the hell's going on in there?"" One of the bouncers yelled into his walkie. <br/><br/>Someone from the other end instantly replied.""Some costumed freak is attacking people with a mace! Get the hell in here and help us!""<br/><br/>""Let's go!"" The bouncer said to the other two. ""Leave the weirdo- hey! Where'd he go?"" Shang-Chi took advantage of the situation and slipped away into the herd unnoticed. He entered the building, completely unaware of the trouble waiting for him inside. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">End of Part 2!</span></div> </div>"

Recently, S.H.I.E.L.D. had received some intel that there was a hidden A.I.M. base lurking in this building.  It was up to Hawkeye’s team to neutralize this potential threat.  You never know what these mad scientists could be up to that could appear as a threat towards national (or even international) security.<br/><br/>	While he pulled himself up the rope on which he was suspended, Hawkeye heard a quiet ring in his earpiece.  Who in the world could be calling at this moment?  Doesn’t his superiors back at S.H.I.E.L.D. know that he and his team were on a stealth mission and this kind of distraction could be costly?  Not only could it distract Hawkeye and his agents, but the A.I.M. scientists could possibly pick up, which would result in their cover being blown.  All because of one phone call.  Therefore, Hawkeye decided to ignore the ringing in his ear, hoping that it would eventually stop.<br/><br/>	However, it did not stop.  With each step up the side of the building, that small, annoying noise kept ringing in his ear.  Eventually, Hawkeye 	decided to pause for a moment and make a quick answer to whoever is calling at the moment.  While he kept one hand on the rope, Clint clicked his earpiece in order to open up a channel of communication to the caller.<br/><br/>	“Can’t talk.  Kind of climbing here.”  Hawkeye answered the call.  He hoped that this would let whoever was calling him know his situation.  Unfortunately, the ringing kept coming.  This caused Clint to increase his climbing speed so that he could reach the top of the roof and answer this call.<br/><br/>	“What’s your problem?”  Clint asked once he had reached level ground and had activated his earpiece, “You know that we are on a delicate stealth mission, right?  We’re about ready to infiltrate this A.I.M. hive and we don’t need any distractions!”<br/></div>"

While they could probably use brute force in order to gain access into the factory so that they could free their two friends and allies, such a tactic would be a media fiasco.  Having the media labeling this as a mutant terrorist attack would be counter-productive to Professor Xavier’s dream of peace and equality between normal humans and mutants.  Instead, they needed to take a more delicate approach.<br/><br/>	Normally, the X-Men would have had either Hank toss the X-Men over a barrier or Jean use her telekinetic powers to lift them over the obstacle.  However, since neither of them were present, Cyclops needed to improvise.  He decided the best way to get past the first wave of security would be to have Spider-Man create weblines that would allow the X-Men to climb over the tall fence that protected the perimeter of the factory’s premise.<br/><br/>	Once they were one the factory’s grounds, the small group of superhumans made their way to the factory proper, using the cover of darkness to hide themselves from the guards.  Professor Xavier’s telepathic abilities, whose range was increased by Cerebro, also came in handy, making the guards think they saw nothing if they were looking directly at any of his X-Men or Spider-Man  Again, when they had reached the factory itself, the X-Men used Spider-Man’s weblines to scale up the building to one of the upper level floors.<br/><br/>	“Okay, Professor, we’ve made it into the factory.  A little assistance getting past the guards would be nice.”  Cyclops, with his voice lowered so that he might not alert any nearby guards, talked into his communicator.<br/><br/>	“Don’t worry, Scott.  The kidnapers of Angelica and Kurt will not know what has hit them.”  Xavier telepathically communicated with this team of X-Men (and Spider-Man).<br/><br/>	“I cannot lie, but I don’t think I’ll ever get use to someone talking in my head like that.”  Spider-Man whispered.  However, Cyclops ignored Peter’s comment about Xavier’s telepathy and began to walk down one of the corridors, following a hand-held, holographic map of the factory’s building plan.  After navigating through this labyrinth of a factory, the five men finally arrived on the upper level of an enormous room.  The top level, where Spider-Man and the X-Men were, was fenced in by a guardrail.  Below them, the perimeter of the room was filled with computers and lab equipment.  But in the center was a giant glass cylinder that contained what looked like a green liquid.<br/><br/>	“Lead them in here!”  A man, who was called Herbert Landon, although this fact was not obvious to the five superhumans hiding above, shouted out while he was entering into the room.  Behind Landon followed four men, who themselves were leading both Firestar and Nightcrawler.  The two captive X-Men had their arms shackled behind their backs and they had some kind of collar like device that was wrapped around their necks.  From there, the men, who seemed to belong to the Maggia, probably Silvermane’s branch, threw the two mutants into individual cages that had a wire attached from the ceiling.<br/><br/>	Once Firestar and Nightcrawler had been detained in these cages, these steel prisons began to rise up into the air, at a height just a little bit higher up than the top edge of the giant, glass cylinder.  Now Cyclops knew that time was of the essence now.  While Scott did not know what that green liquid would do to Angelica or Kurt, he could deduce one thing: it could not be good at all.<br/><br/>	“Alright, Quicksilver, I need you to disarm all the guards down there and make sure that if more come that they cannot turn their weapons against us.  Spider-Man, Iceman, make sure those cages don’t get to that tank!  Colossus, we’re going to need an escape route ASAP!  They are going to know that we are here, so there is no need for any more subtlety.  I’ll provide support fire from up here.”<br/><br/>	Spider-Man leaped from the upper level of the room and shot out a webline.  He swung over towards the cage in which Firestar was being held.  However, before he landed on the cage, Peter felt his spider-sense buzzing like crazy.  At the last second, Peter veered to the side so that he would miss the cage.  As he passed the metallic cage, Spider-Man shot a few web pellets at the cage.  When the silk struck the cage, it immediately started to sizzle, revealing that something was affecting the metallic prison.<br/><br/>	“Hey, guys!  I recommend not touching those bars!”<br/></div>"

Loki and Tony Stark!</span><br/><br/>Tony quietly started to slip into the small craft that was going to take him out, ""Hey how are ya? Listen go ahead and take me to Stark Tech HQ in New York."" Tony said to the pilot who nodded back to him. ""On the way though would it be a deal breaker to go to a place where I can get a burger? I'll totally buy you lunch in exchange."" Tony was about to start strapping into a seat when he felt Victoria behind him. She was clearly bothered about what had happened with him and 'MURICA. Tony held up his hands with a bit of a smirk to her. ""No no don't sweat it. I'm sure the guy is a nice guy."" Tony didn't buy that idea. ""Look, even considering what happened I'm still in on the consultant gig. If nothing else because it'll be good for the job, and I think Fury hates me a bit still for the whole no longer making weapons thing."" The thought about that made Tony dread the thought of actually meeting Fury. He had met him before when his dad was running things and even when Fury was being nice, he was still intimidating.<br/><br/>""Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."" Tony told her finally as she started to leave. With that settled now Tony finally sat down on the seat and put on the seatbelts. ""Alright lets get this show on the road."" Tony called over to the pilot. ""Actually sir,"" The pilot called back, ""I just got the call to wait, someone wanted to see you."" Tony groaned at the news, his hands sliding down his face. ""Oh God it's not Captain 'Murica is it?""<br/><br/>""Trouble with Captain America?"" A familiar voice asked with keen interest from beside Tony from a seat that had been empty until Loki had decided to simply pop in with a playful smile on his face. ""Sorry about the delay, I wanted to drop by and make sure you weren't dead and Fury was kind enough to help out with that. How you doing kid?""<br/><br/>Sighing in relief Tony smiled a bit at the sight of a strangely already comforting sight. ""Yeah just... seemed like the guy already had his mind set on me before even meeting me you..."" Tony was about to ask only to realize who he was talking too. ""Who am I kidding, you more than anyone know what I'm talking about."" Tony stated with a brief chuckle.<br/><br/>Tony held up his now healed arm. ""Yeah Victoria healed me up, so I feel tons better. I'm just going to head back to work since I'm all straightened up here. Guess for this thing they're doing they want me to be a tech consultant for this project. I'm in for pretty much business reasons."" He quickly realized that if things are how they seemed, Tony for this project would be taking orders from 'MURICA. That was a horrifying thought...<br/><br/>Shaking it off Tony remembered something, reaching into his wallet he pulled out a small business card and handed over to Loki. ""This is my personal cell number, I mean I'm not bragging or anything but I don't just go giving this out to anyone. Also next time you get a chance stop by Stark Tech. I want to give you a card to access my personal elevator and will give you access to all of the business. Down to being able to just pick up any of our products."" Tony scratched the back of his neck, realizing how little he gets to show this kind of genuine feeling to someone. ""Just... I really want to thank you for saving my life you know? Just... thank you man. I seriously owe you one so I think this is the least I can do.""<br/><br/>Loki nodded his head with an expression on his face that not only got across the fact that he had been there and done that, he had done so that many times that he was on such good terms with the traveling staff that they happily invited him to their Christmas Party every year. Still, he managed a chuckle. ""You can say that again.""<br/><br/>Loki listened as Tony explained what his plans for the future seemed to be and the business relationship with Shield that he appeared to be embarking on, tilting his head somewhat to the side as he noticed the look of absolute horror that seemed to cross Tony's face. It didn't take much to guess what was on his mind. ""I'll see what I can do about being the member of this new team that actually talks with you. I'm <span class=""bb-i"">sure</span> that this new Captain America will be to busy trying to live up to the image of his predecessor to complain to heavily about letting someone else talk to someone he doesn't get along with."" <br/><br/>The offering of the card with the cellphone number on it and what was pretty much permission to access <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span> that Stark Industries had was honestly something that Loki was honestly caught off guard by the sheer level of reward that Tony was heaping on him just for saving his life. It was actually rather touching... Accepting the card, Loki took a moment to memorize the number on it before tucking it away for safe keeping despite it not longer really being needed. Still, Loki couldn't help but grin playfully as he started to speak ""You know, normally when someone wanted to sleep with me they would offer to take me out to dinner or something. Alas if the way you were looking at me when I was talking with the rather lovely Pepper earlier was any indication you're not into men."" <br/><br/>Tapping his chin a couple of times as if in mock thought, it wasn't until the third tap that there was a noticeable change in Loki's appearance. Namely the fact that he was now <a href=""http://pre15.deviantart.net/4004/th/pre/f/2014/191/6/6/lady_loki_by_elias_chatzoudis-d7q4jta.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">female with a <span class=""bb-i"">slightly</span> altered outfit.</a> ""If only there was some way to change that..."" Loki purred playfully.    <br/><br/>Tony needless to say got a very confused boner.<br/><br/>""Man I didn't mean it like that."" Tony retracted fairly quickly at Loki and the fact that Loki as a woman was pretty damn sexy. Again though there was so much wrong and weird about it Tony couldn't let it all sink past the superficial. ""I mean don't get me wrong you are very pretty."" Tony chuckled, it was fascinating to see someone who not only proved that magic was real, but that it had such a wide range potentially of uses. He would be very interested in seeing what Loki could do... not in the way Loki was insinuating at the moment but in other ways. Though Tony had to also wonder about how Loki chose the look he just changed into. If Greek mythology was any indication, Tony could only wonder what kind of freaky stuff the Norse mythological beings were into.<br/><br/>""I mean with Pepper... man don't think of it like that. I've known Pepper since we were like kids, we go way back..."" Tony didn't realize it but he was glaring at Loki a bit when Loki introduced himself to her, he cared about her but as far as he was concerned it was only in the sort of ways a friend would. He was probably digging a bigger and bigger hole for himself with every word he was saying by this point. So he adjusted his seat belt strap. ""Anyways not to cut this awkwardly sexy scene short but I should be heading back to work."" Tony noted. ""What about you? I wouldn't mind giving you a tour of the headquarters if you want to tag along."" Tony paused shaking his head, ""And no I don't mean it like THAT.""<br/><br/>Deciding to let the transformation drop now that the fun had been had, Loki was once again his normal, male self, if somewhat more amused then normal. ""Thanks for the offer Tony but I have some business to take care of myself. Getting to know the lay of the land and all that. I'll make sure to swing by at some point in the future, alright?""<br/><br/>Tony gave Loki a thumbs up, having realized he now just knew so much more about the God than ever realized. ""Yeah when you do check in with reception, they should know what's up."". With that Tony extended out a hand to shake and once Loki made his exit turned his attention back to the pilot. ""So about that lunch...""</div>"

America didn’t know what it was about him, but just being in the same room as him made her throat go a little dry. No, America wasn’t attracted to him or anything in the slightest, he just seemed to give off a strong feeling. The man’s powerful and intimidating look made her feel useless and powerful at the same time. All she could do for a few seconds was gaze and smile gleefully. <br/><br/>She quickly recovered once he spoke again however, with him approaching her and Kate, waving a female agent over to join them as he did so.<br/><br/>""This is Agent Baker. She's our resident medical officer and psych examiner. She'll do whatever she can to help you, ma'am. I couldn't possibly understand what you're going through."" America nodded as he spoke. To be perfectly honest, she was surprised that S.H.I.E.L.D. had actually sent someone to come and look after Kate. She had very much expected the girl to have been pulled into an interrogation room, like the one she had found herself in just the other day, and been angrily questioned by a high ranking official. Maybe S.H.I.E.L.D. really did care? America was about to comment on this when the floating man turned directly at her. ""I'll be on the roof. Come speak to me whenever you are able."" That was all he said before he turned and drifted away. <br/><br/>Honestly America had no idea what to make of the man. Whatever could this guy want with her? Shaking the thought out of her head for now, she turned back towards her friends and Agent Baker. Quentin was talking to a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who seemed to be trying to get a gist of what had happened here. She nearly laughed when she heard him begin to brag about how he had singlehandedly taken all of the bodyguard’s down, but in the end she neglected to correct him. Instead, she raised her head to catch his attention, clearing her thoughts slightly as he telepathically asked her what was going on.<br/><br/>After informing him of her upcoming discussion with the super powered S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, she bid the kid a temporary goodbye before returning her gaze to Kate, who also seemed to be wanting to know what she was about to do. <br/><br/>“Just let Agent Baker here look after you, alright?” She said soothingly, giving the girl a hug. “I need to go help take care of this…mess. But don’t worry because as soon as I’m done, I’ll come see you again, ok?”<br/><br/>Kate silently nodded, embracing America once more before being directed away by Agent Baker. Now with that taken care of, America maneuvered herself out of the room and onto the roof. she found him waiting for her, with the man floating patiently in the air for her.<br/><br/>At once he began, informing her of his true reason for coming here. The Avengers. That was something America certainly hadn’t expected. She was amazed. Honoured even to have been considered the opportunity to join such a team of individuals. However comment about joining a team being a big commitment was right. America hadn’t even started to think of what she was going to do next! Would she return back to Earth-212? Sure it was nice there, but was she really living up to her true potential? But still, a team? America didn’t even know who else she was going to be working with. She hadn’t learnt much about this world’s mightiest heroes. The only “heroes” she knew of was this guy and Captain America. What if everyone else was a bunch of dicks? <br/><br/>After a brief few moments of internally debating with herself, America came to a decision. <br/><br/>“Well I might as well!” She said nervously. “What have I got to lose?”<br/><br/>He seemed to smile slightly at that remark, before following on with another question. It would seem that this man, Hyperion as he seemed to refer to himself as, had heard of her dimension hopping capabilities. No doubt everyone at S.H.I.E.L.D. knew what she was capable of now. Nevertheless, she decided to play along with Hyperion’s request to see if she knew a version of him from elsewhere. She narrowed her eyes and took the whole guy in one more time. Honestly the name rang a bell. She tried to remember when she had last heard it. Was it a news report back on Earth-4667? A name in passing from her time among the Teen Brigade? No… It was something else. She could remember now. It had been a bad place. A bad Earth. A scorched Earth. <br/><br/>The thought intrigued America but honestly she couldn’t remember but now thinking about it, something seemed off. She couldn’t think of what it was though, so instead of informing Hyperion of what she was thinking, she put on a smile and a fake confused look. <br/><br/>“Can’t say I have, <span class=""bb-i"">chico</span>!” She said confidently, hoping that the guy wouldn’t think any more on it. “So, onwards to the Avengers I guess!”<br/></div>"

This wasn't exactly the reception he was wanting, he wanted to see how these guys all worked together as part of a team. Right now he needed a couple of people without powers and no known affiliation with the team to come in and test what they were made off. After all, the training room was all set and hopefully Carter was taking Pym there now. He didn't really need to invite Stark, he didn't particularly want too either. He wasn't ready to let that boy on the team, sure he had a sweet piece of tech but he sure as hell didn't have the training.<br/><br/>That would have to change if he kept trying to get into the super-hero business. There were plenty of S.H.I.E.L.D agents to do it, though in the end he knew who it was going to come down to... it wasn't the best scenario ever but it had to happen it had to happen. He wouldn't shirk his responsibilities...<br/><br/>""Barton, yeah I know what you're upto. I have the clearance. Listen, Furys given me any asset I need to set this up and he wants you on the team so... I I need you to clean up then you can get yourself back to the Triskellion A.S.A.P. Once there, enter the Avengers training room and with a squad proceed to attack all targets. Take it easy on Pym though he isn't as thick skinned as the rest of them. If you feel your job there will take too long I can send in Milton, he's just running pick up for me anyway right now.""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/avengersearthsmightiestheroes/images/7/7c/Bruce_Banner.png/revision/latest?cb=20100730022732""/></div><br/><br/>Bruce stuck his hands in his pockets as he walked out of the hospital. Hood up and looking straight at the ground, a police car drove up to the entrance of the hospital before the officers filed into the building. Walking straight past him, thankfully. The problem was it would be no time at all until S.H.I.E.L.D or Ross got involved and they were far more likely to actually find him. He chose a road, and started to walk down it. The wilderness was the best place for him, all he had to do was find a town and from there he could maybe find a way to make some money and get a cabin in an ever more remote location. From there he could get the equipment and hopefully find a way to resolve the whole <span class=""bb-i"">Hulk</span> dilemma.<br/><br/>Yes, he had tried to do the same thing in Australia. Though he wasn't entirely trusting of Loki. Especially after he was teleported to <span class=""bb-i"">safety</span> and then people just so happened to turn up mere days later to try and capture him. Look what it had caused, there was still a lot of panic going on over a nuclear explosion in <span class=""bb-i"">Canada</span>. <span class=""bb-b"">Canada</span> of all places, if it was America people could probably understand it. Lots of weird superhero/supervillain stuff went down in America. But Canada? That was a serious blow and got a lot of people talking. Was it really safe to have all these people running around having grudge matches? <br/><br/>What differentiated the two groups? Of course Bruce understood. Not everyone was like the Hulk, volatile and destructive. Quite a lot of heroes did their best to minimize damage, and just wanted to try their best to help people. He'd never head that. <br/><br/>And so he walked down the lonely road, pretty soon it would become the only one he'd ever know. The Hulks creation saw to that, he'd never have a normal life for as long as the Hulk existed. That was just a fact off life.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/avengersalliance/images/9/9d/Doctor_Doom_Dialogue_1.png/revision/latest?cb=20131225115432""/></div><br/><br/>Doom pushed himself up off the time travel pad as the Doom bots continued to rush to his side. He waved them away, they had business to attend too! Armoured pieces, crushed, burnt, broken, fell from him onto the ground. He signalled and smaller robots emerged from a hole in the wall, moving over with him tearing off the old parts and bolting new ones on. He gritted his teeth through the pain. The pain was nothing to what was to come, how could he have been so foolish? A hundred years and of course that brute was in charge, no doubt he had also been responsible for whatever cataclysm had claimed the Earth. Most likely to assist him seizing power. He'd need to prepare an arsenal first, that was important. He'd also need his own generals with their own unique... skills.<br/><br/>While he had no doubt he could combat this threat on his own, it was always useful to have someone to throw in the line of fire in order to see the strengths of ones enemies. It was always something to bear in mind, though there was someone who had something he needed... While Starks technology wasn't much more advanced than his own - after all, had Stark made a time machine? What Stark did have however, was a vast array of factory's and contacts ready to pump out whatever weaponry Doom would need in his war. While he had his own factory's he doubted with the recent declaration of trying to form a Latverian Union he could move such weaponry freely into the United States without raising more than a few eyebrows.<br/><br/>He just needed a way in, what was that idiots name who wanted a private meeting with him? Some important executive at Stark Tech? He eyed the combat reports from Sokovia as he considered the option and sighed as he saw that some pockets of the Sokovian Government had managed to activate some of his older weaponry and use it against the Doombots. Slowing down proceedings considerably, the only good thing was that as the war continued he was gaining a nice supply of refugees. Which in turn was allowing him to show the world what a benevolent ruler he truly was...<br/><br/>No matter what the Young Mr.Stark believed. <br/><br/></div>"

Even if the voice itself was calming and tried to establish that the mutant understood what she was going through and could help if necessary, the act of invading someone’s mind was at the very least a little disconcerting.  This redhead did not seem too threatening, but what would stop her, or anyone else with similar powers, from pushing a thought into Carol’s mind or convince her to do something?  Carol did in fact have potentially destructive powers of her own, but nothing could stack up to the power of violating an individual’s free will.<br/><br/>	Meanwhile, Unus, with his impenetrable shield, gathered around Mastermind and the knocked down Blob.  Once the three mutants were inside the protective encasing of Unus’ powers, nothing could harm them.  Not even the psychic abilities of Jean Grey.  Therefore, the three mutants held out within this defensive bubble until Vanisher reappeared in order to carry the remaining Brotherhood members away to safety.<br/><br/>	After the departure of the remainder of the Brotherhood of Mutants, another one of the X-Men decided to chime in about Carol accidently sending a blast of energy in Jean Grey’s direction.  In fact, it was one of the X-Men that she had not even noticed was there until that moment.  However, his cursing was not the worse part about him flipping out.  Normally, when one would jab a <span class=""bb-i"">man</span> with one’s finger, one would normally strike that man’s chest.  However, if it were a woman instead of a man, the anatomic differences between the sexes would make the situation a little bit more awkward, as it was now for Carol.  If Storm and Beast had not intervened in the nick of time, impelling the speedster to a half-assed apology (better than nothing), Carol would have slapped the man so hard (assuming she could hit him) that even his superhuman speed would have trouble canceling out the velocity at which she had sent him flying.<br/><br/>	Now that the Brotherhood was defeated and all the civilians saved, the four X-Men began to depart in the Blackbird.  As the Blackbird flew away southward back towards New York State, Carol looked down at the small business card that Jean Grey had telekinetically given to her a few moments ago.  On the card it read: “Xavier Institute of Higher Learning”.  Assuming from what Jean said about how they help people like her and from the rumors that these X-Men are mutants, Caroled decided that somehow this school must be helping out mutants on the side while still fulfilling its academic duties.  <br/><br/>	But a different thought entered into Carol’s mind.  Was she herself a mutant?  She does have powers, but Carol had never head of a mutant that could fluctuate between two set ages.  However, never seeing this power does not mean it does not exist.  Just as never seeing a million dollars before also does not make that amount of money fictional.  But what would her father think about his daughter potentially being a mutant?  He already was resentful that she survived the car crash and her brother Steven didn’t.  Since she did not want to allow one of her parents to accidently stumble upon this card, revealing the possibility that she was a mutant, assuming they could make the connection between the school and mutants, Carol tried to activate her powers in the palm of her hand, this time attempting to localize the affect.  Once her powers fired up, the card was incinerated.<br/><br/>	Once the only evidence that could suggest that she might possibly be a mutant was destroyed, there was no longer any reason for Carol to stick around.  While she knew that she had the ability to fly, particularly from the event where she caught that falling plane, Carol nevertheless has never consciously flown, or at least from what she could remember.  <br/><br/>	“How hard could it be?”  Carol thought to herself as she looked up towards the stars.  Right when she began to think about flying, the yellow aura reappeared around her body.  With one leap off the ground, Carol soared up into the sky.  At first, it seemed pretty easy to her.  All she needed to do was aim both of her arms in the direction towards which she wanted to fly.  However, Carol realized how fast she ascended into the sky until she realized that she had broken the atmosphere and therefore was now hovering in space.<br/><br/>	Since it was the natural reaction to the situation, Carol threw her hands around her through, momentarily believing that she could not believe because space was a vacuum and did not have any oxygen and the other trace elements necessary for human respiration.  However, after a few seconds, she realized that she was not suffocating for some strange reason.  Her yellow aura was shining even brighter now.  Was it the reason why Carol was able to endure the vacuum of space, along with its subzero temperature.<br/><br/>	Once Carol had gotten over the shock of her ability to survive in space, she finally beheld the majesty of the view that lay before her.  The moon sluggishly rolled past her.  The surface of the moon that was facing her reflected the rays of light of the sun that the earth itself was not blocking.  Behind the moon were the stars that filled the black void of space.  Around any urban area, most of the stars remain invisible to the naked eye.  However, up in the space, Carol could see the light of countless stars shine.  She could even barely make out Mars and Jupiter, although they seemed more like stars from this distance.<br/><br/>	When she had finished gazing at the stars and the other celestial bodies, Carol turned her focus back to earth.  Everything looked so small from up in space.  Even Massachusetts appeared to be a small protrusion on the North American continent, let alone the city of Boston.  It almost felt the same as when someone looks out of an airplane window and sees that the buildings and cars almost appear as if they were miniature toys.<br/><br/>	“Well, looks like getting back home will be quite <span class=""bb-i"">interesting</span>.</div>"

However usually his involved the kind of violence that wouldn't fly with anyone in the X-Men.  So Pietro for the most part kept quiet when Cyclops went over the plan.  Occasionally stepping in surprisingly professionally with insight about how security would normally be stationed in such a situation and where were going to be key hitting points.  All things he learned in his work.  Cyclops never gave Pietro any lip for speaking up, instead paying attention and working his plan like a masterpiece around new information and thoughts.  Pietro as much as he couldn't stand Cyclops' tendencies to be a stick in the ass.  He respected the guy for his strategy and planning.  Strangely, Pietro was reminded of his 'father' Erik in that way.  <br/><br/>As the group went inside Pietro kept with the group, only speeding off to get a quick glimpse ahead or into any small areas for Firestar or Nightcrawler's possible holding spots.  He kept his composure as they would be staring down the barrel of security at points, though he couldn't resist throwing an occasional single finger salute to them to show how he believed authority such as them were number one in his mind.  Even knowing it would get him a glare from Cyclops every time he did it.<br/><br/>As the group hit the area Pietro glanced over at Spider-Man and his quip about having telepathy done to your brain.  “Don't worry, you never will...”  Pietro muttered back with a bit of a smirk.  He got the instructions from Cyclops, waiting a moment and taking his time to really take in the guards and their equipment.  Where the rifle was, how it was being held, if they had a pistol and where it was usually holstered, left or right hip.  Any grenades the guards were carrying and what they were (yes Pietro could tell by looking at them).  Finally Pietro drew up his line of attack in his head.  When he was in these types of moments he always found having a moment to make sure he knew what to do was vital.  Once he started running the window of opportunity was brief even for his running speeds.  So he had to know exactly the route and movement he needed to do first and foremost before he went in.<br/><br/>Finally Pietro leapt down from the hiding spot, his legs quickly moving leaving him off in a dash the moment a foot touched the ground.  Then in a blur Pietro went into his routine.  Yanking away assault rifles, pulling out and getting pistols, and pulling on smoke grenades to create more chaos for the others to take advantage of.  Finally getting to the end where he had a large handful of weapons in his hands.  Dropping all of it except for one assault rifle he fired up into the air of.  “Alright boys and girls get off your asses already!”</div>"

They were the best thing that S.H.I.E.L.D. had in order to evaluate this superhuman team, which was code named the Avengers.  Now that all these superhumans began to come out of the woodwork, the most experienced spy organization in the world had to level the playing field.  Obviously, S.H.I.E.L.D. did not want to send out an untested team into the field.  That’s why they needed Hawkeye’s team to make sure that these so-called ‘Avengers’ would be up to snuff for being a superhuman response squad.<br/><br/>	Hawkeye wanted to ask whether there were anyone else available.  As Captain America was well aware of, they were currently in the middle of a delicate infiltration mission against an A.I.M. hide out.  Weren’t there any other available squads for this task?  Unfortunately, since Hawkeye and his squad were the best that S.H.E.I.L.D. had, they were the most qualified group within SHIELD to perform this task.<br/><br/>	“I’ll keep you in the loop.”  Hawkeye responded to Captain America, “You never know about these A.I.M. guys.  For how smart they claim to be, they sometimes do some pretty dumb mistakes.”<br/><br/>	Hawkeye immediately terminated the communications with his supervisors, knowing that, even though these ‘beekeepers’ highly overestimate their intelligence, leaving this channel open could take away their element of surprise.  Hawkeye has seen some crazy stuff during his spy career with S.H.I.E.L.D., especially in his encounters with A.I.M.  Whenever wacky phenomena are involved, any advantage that a non-enhanced human could get was welcome.<br/><br/>	The first portion of the mission went smoothly, even in spite of the minor interruption while the squad was scaling up the side of the A.I.M. base.  The beauty of the bow and arrow is its relative silence.  Fire arms are extremely noisy in comparison.  Even with silencers, the noise is only muffled, not silenced, despite what these devices are called.  Hawkeye and his team made it all the way to the center of the base without even being detected, either by evading guards or knocking them out without giving away their position.<br/><br/>	This central room was configured for some sort of experiment concocted by the ‘brains’ behind A.I.M.  The room was shaped like a cone, with the floor descending ever sharply as one would go towards the center.  The slope of the room was so steep that, beyond the narrow strip of flooring that crowned the edges of the room, where all the electronic equipment was located, the scientists needed a spiral ramp in order to reach the bottom.  Above the pit, a large, purple orb was suspended from the ceiling, which the A.I.M. scientists had dubbed the ‘Zeta beam’.<br/><br/>	On a platform that looked over this conical pit, a strange being floated beside the other yellow-clad A.I.M. scientists.  This man, if he could even be called that, looked as if he was a giant head, incased in metal plating, who had the tiny limbs of either an infant or a disabled person who had not used either their arms or legs in their entire life.  While most people would probably be freaking out at this moment, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were not quite taken back at this sight.  These bizarre situations were part of the job description.<br/><br/>	Before Hawkeye or anyone in his squad could do anything, the machinery in the room suddenly activated, launching a purple beam of ionic energy down from the orb that was suspended from the ceiling.  Although Hawkeye did not know what that column of purple light was doing, he guessed that it was nothing good.  Therefore, he drew an arrow from his quiver, aimed at the control module, and fired.   The arrow that Clint had selected was specifically designed to deactivate electronics.  When the shaft struck the controls that stood before the chief scientists of A.I.M. and the floating robotic head that was called MODOK, the Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing, the yellow clad men scrambled to reactive the device as they saw the purple beam dissipate before their eyes.<br/><br/>	However, MODOK discovered the SHIELD agents.  “Intruders.”  He said in a semi-robotic voice, “They must not interfere with our experiment!”<br/><br/>	A red, metallic square on MODOK’s forehead began to glow.  Anticipating MODOK’s attack, all the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents dove for cover, dodging the mental beam that that ‘man’ fired in their direction.  Before MODOK could fire off a second blast, Hawkeye swiftly drew his bow and landed an arrow square on the red device that emitted MODOK’s mental beam.  Due to his scrawny arms, MODOK struggled in vain to remove the arrow from his forehead before his mental beam would overload.  As was expected due to his anatomy, MODOK could not pull off Hawkeye’s arrow, which caused the mental beam of the head of A.I.M. to overload and discharged the beam.  At that same moment, the A.I.M. scientists had reactivated the ion-induced Zeta beam in order to reinitiate the experiment.  However, MODOK’s mental bolt intersected with the ionic particles produced from the Zeta beam, resulting in a chain reaction that caused the device to malfunction and pure emit a column of ionic energy greater than the A.I.M. scientists had programmed the device to release.<br/><br/>	Everyone, both the A.I.M. scientists and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stood in awe as they watched the purple column of light dissipate in front of them.  Once the Zeta beam had stopped pouring out the ionic energy, everyone could discern that someone, or something was standing at the bottom of the conical room.  His skin, or what looked like the outer layer of his body, had the same purple hue as the ionic particles that were released by the Zeta beam.  Furthermore, it seemed as if a smoke-like substance, that was the same color as is body, was floating away from his body.  When he opened his eyes, his eyes did not appear like one of a normal human, but it glowed red.  After the man looked up, he immediately jumped into the air, soaring up towards the ceiling and crashing through the roof of the building.<br/><br/>	“Incredible!”  MODOK shouted aloud, gloating in the success in his experiment which he truly did not expect to succeed in the first place, “I have created a being of pure ionic-energy.  I am science!  I am genius!”  However, before the giant head could celebrate his ‘victory’ any more, Hawkeye shot out a volley of net arrows, which slammed into MODOK and sent him flying into the wall and trapped the AIM monstrosity behind a metal net.<br/><br/>	“Um, Cap.”  Hawkeye opened up the communication channel back to base once again, “You might want Milton to test those Avengers.  We just had a purple Doctor Manhattan zoom out of the A.I.M. base.  We’re in pursuit now.”</div>"

Its been so long since that time, sometimes he forgets he was even living a lie. That the Thor Odinson, god of thunder and father of Odin that he was in reality was in fact the fantasy the people around him only thought of it as. It was a tough time but in trying times one always has to be able to adapt or will parish. <br/><br/>Thor has spent so many years in Midgard since the fall of his home. So much time gone that Thor hasn't even been able to remember the exact number anymore. Still he can recall the days of old, the days when his brother was a much kinder, warmer soul. Before it became blackened with hate and misguided pride. Thor yearned for those days sometimes, other days he was thankful that Loki was gone. Only a miracle could've saved him from himself after time.<br/><br/>As Thor glanced around at the variety of beers in the supermarket he felt his mind going to all those seemingly random in the moment thoughts. Leaning back a bit, still holding his half empty shopping cart in a hand as the other ran through his long blond hair. Sighing a bit to himself over having another moment of fleeting thoughts of a long, since ruined past. ""Never did understand all this fancy craft beer crap myself..."" Thor glanced over at the older in appearance man next to him. Wearing an army t-shirt and jeans, complimenting in a way the red flannel and jeans Thor himself had on. Thor smirked a bit, he actually rather liked the craft beers himself.<br/><br/>""No not that, just got a bit... well homesick I suppose."" Thor said with a bit of self humored whimsy. Leaning down on his shopping cart's handle. <br/><br/>""Oh? Where you from?"" The man asked.<br/><br/>""Norway..."" Thor had beaten that answer into his mind so much by this point it was a breeze to tell that lie.<br/><br/>The old man nodded, ""Lovely place, was stationed there a time you know? Hopefully you can go back sometime."" The old man patted Thor on his broad shoulder which Thor barely felt.<br/><br/>""Yeah, hopefully."" Thor muttered with an empty tone. He didn't see any reason he could believe that.<br/><br/>Picking out a couple cases of beer to go with the various other things Thor had paid for his things and took it all to the beaten up Ford pick up he has had for some time now. Ever since he moved to Montana around the early 80s. The thing was fairly new at that point but now it felt like it was on its last legs. Thor took it as a sign that maybe the time has come to move on from this place. Montana had a lovely natural beauty to it, but he has seen it all to the point of being numb from it. Which was usually his sign it was time to go somewhere else and start over again. Part of him enjoyed it, everything he has seen and done could create a book the size of the very world itself in tales. Otherwise though, Thor would love to be able to just stay put, and actually not feel like a stranger anymore. None the less Thor hopped into his truck and started it to drive home. <br/><br/>If he had wanted to, Loki could have teleported to the target location Montana but instead he opted to take a lift on one of the helibirds. He claimed that it was because he didn't want to alert the man that S.H.I.E.L.D had wanted him to check out by teleporting in because he might detect the magic he was using; This wasn't actually a lie since depending on who it was that might have been an actual concern. In truth he had needed time to get his thoughts together and consider just how the hel he was going to handle this situation. <br/><br/>Why did all the ghosts from his past have to be alive and well and coming back to haunt him now of all times? At the rate Asgardians were coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches he could hire a maid and it would turn out to be Odin wearing a dress!<br/><br/>The bird came down some distance away from the last known residence of the possibly Asgardian man that he had been sent to meet with... Stepping off his ride he started to cover the rest of the distance by foot. <br/><br/>Thor's truck made noises that made him worry that sooner or later the damn thing was going to explode into a mushroom cloud of broken parts. Still it was getting him from point A to point B. That was the main thing that mattered as far as he was concerned at the moment. As Thor quietly drove back home, listening to the talk radio station the FM radio was stuck on. He spotted something overheard doing in the same direction, odd considering the area wasn't really doing much as far as he knew.<br/><br/>As Thor pulled into the dirt driveway leading up to his house he looked up and spotted someone near his house, he didn't see the person's face, someone in a large black coat. Thor grimaced, he didn't know what the guy wanted but considering who usually come looking for him its almost never good. Something ranging from on the easier side some door to door salesman guy who was desperate, to at worst someone trying to steal something. Sure he didn't have much of anything, much less something worth stealing. But Thor was a man of ethics, so a thief was still going to suffer for their crimes.<br/><br/>Putting the breaks to the truck he stepped out as he killed the engine and put it into park. ""Hey!"" Thor called out to the man, ""Don't know what you're doing here but this is private property!"" <br/><br/>Loki's ear twitched a little as he heard a voice that had had not heard for a very, very long time. He had fully expected to never hear that voice again... and he didn't actually know how he should feel about the fact that the speaker was alive in the first place. Time and reflection had cooled the hatred and banished the insanity but old memories stung deep as they were unearthed once more. Turning around slowly, Loki looked at Thor for the first time in years and found himself conflicted. ""Hello brother."" It seemed as appropriate a greeting as any... hopefully the conversation would end with him still having his head. <br/><br/>As he saw the man start to turn Thor's eyes slowly widened, his lips parted, and the world around him, and everything he thought he knew, all slowly came to a stop. It was someone who should be dead, who he watched lose his life during the end of the world that he brought. How was the man here before him now. Thor stepped away from his truck, his mind swirling from not understanding what he was seeing. Was this some sadistic trick? Some kind of illusion? <br/><br/>It wasn't until he was a step away from Loki that he realized it was the actual little brother. ""H-how? You died... I watched you be killed..."" Thor muttered in the desperation of trying to make sense of all this. As the moment passed Thor's look of shock slowly turned into a look of anger. All the feelings, the years of having to hide, seeing Loki destroying everything he cared for and loved. Thor's hand clinched tighter and tighter. His teeth slowly grinding harder and harder against one another. Finally it all came to a head, as Thor reared back, and with a solid wind up slammed his left fist as hard as possible into Loki's jaw. Letting out an almost barbaric yelling as he did so.<br/><br/>As Loki collapsed to the ground Thor breathed hard through his nose as he looked at the downed sibling. Finally though, Thor calmed down a bit. Having gotten the anger out of his system, at least for the time being. Going back to his pick up he pulled out the assortment of plastic bags and beer 24 packs. He took his time carrying up the path to his front door, fiddling to get the door open. Stopping to turn to Loki. ""Are you coming in or what?"" He asked simply. Not waiting for an answer as he went inside, leaving the door open for Loki as he headed into the kitchen to put his groceries away. <br/><br/>Just as Loki feared, in taking punch number two today it was indeed a long day.<br/><br/>Even as he rubbed his jaw while getting off of the ground that he had been knocked on to, Loki couldn't believe just how lightly he had gotten off so far; Sure, Thor had just punched him square in the face but the fact that was all that had happened so far...<br/><br/>Accepting the invitation and stepping inside, Loki made the effort to look around while keeping an eye on his adopted brother. ""It's a nice place you've got here... Been here long?"" He started off someone lamely; How do you start a conversation with a man that you tried to kill and slaughtering most of his loved ones and burning down his home? <br/><br/>Truth be told Thor was fighting his inner feelings about seeing Loki again so hard. There was a part of him that wanted to tear the bastard limb from limb. It was the barbaric side of Thor, the side that was forged from eons of battles on Asgard. It would be easy too, Loki, even with all his magical power, was frail and clearly hadn't spent time bulking up in the meantime. Still the thousands of years made Thor show more peaceful practices before resorting to physical violence. That bar in Sweden was a standing monument to this idea. Well it would've been a standing monument if he didn't end up leaving it not standing after his violence.<br/><br/>""I built it myself about... 76 years ago."" Thor noted, needing to recall the date. It was clear by his tone that Thor had a lot of pride in that. Back in his Asgard days he never would've imagined using his hands to create like this. However all those years of various trades training gave Thor enough insight to be able to build a place that he was very comfortable in. Still he finished putting his groceries away in the kitchen and took a pair of bottles of beer. Casually passing one to Loki as he passed him into the living room where he took a seat onto a couch. ""Come, sit."" Thor commanded with a tone, but hard to read tone as he watched Loki. ""I suppose the question I have to ask first is... how the Hell are you still alive?"" <br/><br/>Catching the beer that was thrown his way easily enough before once again accepting the invitation to sit; It felt insanely weird to be following what had quite clearly been an order but his own curiosity drove him on wards if only to see how this would end.<br/><br/>The fact that Thor had built this place himself actually caused Loki to look somewhat impressed, as well as gave Loki somewhat of an idea as to why his brother wasn't trying to kill him; He didn't want to destroy what he built.<br/><br/>Of course, then the first question that needed to be asked was raised... <br/><br/>""I could ask you the same, but to answer your question... I was betrayed and imprisoned in a cell in the nether for..."" There was a pause as a choice of words was considered and decided upon ""Well, time doesn't really mean anything in the Nether. I spent an untold amount of time being tormented there until a group of young humans in nineteen fourteen freed me to help them free their country from the empire in charge of it at the time... And by pure accident began the series of events that started the First World War. Tried to be a lot more careful since then.""<br/><br/>Taking a moment to sip his beer, Loki felt the need to ask ""So... How are you alive? Asgardians seem to be coming out of the woodwork lately."" <br/><br/>Pulling the cap off of his beer with no effort as he listened to Loki's story. Interesting to hear he did indeed die but people brought him back. It gave him a feeling that Loki's docile nature so far. The little brother he saw before this encounter had nothing but rage and insanity pulsing through his heart. So the fact that Loki was being fairly reasonable told Thor a lot. ""I always thought the way all that went down was a bit strange."" Thor noted.<br/><br/>""I survived, though it was through some means I'm not proud of.... Still I've been around on Midgard here since. I've traveled all over the globe and did everything. Way too many stories to tell you at the moment."" Thor took a swig of beer, leaning back in the sofa before looking very sternly over at Loki. ""Now though we need to talk. Something about how you've approached me today says that you're not the same Loki I saw last in battle. I don't know if you are a changed man or if this is some kind of long game but all I can hope for right now is that you have learned from your own mistakes.""<br/><br/>Taking another drink of beer Thor wiped his lips with his wrist. ""Because look... I get it. Odin, as much as the blood in my veins disallows me to say anything too harsh about him. I realize now he didn't truly understand what being a father meant. Me on the other hand, I adored having you with me. I loved that you weren't like the other kids, and I felt like I learned more from seeing you do the same things I did. Even when Odin told me you weren't really a brother in blood I didn't care. If anything I cared about you more...""<br/><br/>Thor looked a bit wistful and distant seeing the memory creep into his own mind. ""When you were humiliated by Eltri, I tried to run out there for your help. Father stopped me though, and had me taken to my room by force."" Thor quickly finished his beer to blot out the thoughts running through his mind but swiftly continued. ""I knew you had changed but I had hoped it was something that would pass, or you would seek asylum before doing something drastic. Had I known what it would lead to, you bet I would've done so much more to stop that festering boil of hate inside of you sooner.""<br/><br/>Thor though let a long sigh out of his system. ""Still, if you have changed for the better I can only hope its genuine."" Reaching over Thor patted Loki's hand with a smile. ""Because I'd love to have my little brother back."" <br/><br/>Looking down at his hand, the look on Loki's face was unreadable as he looked at the hand that was being patted by a man that once upon a time he would have given anything to see him broken and dead before him. Now through...<br/><br/>A sigh escaped him as he looked away from his adoptive brother. ""I... Thor, I don't think I'm ready to be the little brother you want me to be. I honestly didn't believe that you were still alive all this time; I found your trice-damned hammer in Tarene's possession for crying out loud. I hadn't even known that you were the Asgardian that I was going to find out here until I saw you.""<br/><br/>""Just...Give me some time to get used to the idea, okay?"" It was a small plea, but hopefully Thor would respect. <br/><br/>Thor's hand awkwardly slipped off of Loki's at the request. Thor's grimace showed his worry about Loki and where he was mentally. The fact that Loki still was missing something, or couldn't come to terms with something. It made Thor worry for his brother's well being. ""Well Loki I'll be here for you if you need me. Even if we couldn't go back to the good ol' days there's something to you now that makes me feel like we can coexist now even after everything."" Thor chuckled as he leaned back in his seat. ""Heaven knows we've had more than enough time to let our wounds heal.""<br/><br/>Still though Thor's eyes widened as he realized what Loki mention, not just that Tarene was still alive. Mjolnir, a weapon of mass power that Thor adored but thought was long gone. ""Tarene is alive and has Mjolnir?!"" Thor leaned back to Loki, if all of this was a trick Thor couldn't help but get suckered into it given what Loki had just told him. ""I... I know maybe I came off a bit strong with what I had said. But... where is Tarene? Is she well?"" He realized a reunion between Loki and Tarene probably wasn't as friendly as this was. ""Did she wound you badly?"" <br/><br/>Loki couldn't help but chuckle a little as he answered ""That's the understatement of the year. She didn't get to hurt me that badly; Not sure where she is currently or what mental state she is currently in because last I saw her I managed to talk her out of killing a mortal man that had refused to help her find me.""<br/><br/>There was a moment of debate as Loki considered telling his brother about Mjolnir; The damn thing was most likely still where it had been left at Stark Tower unless someone absolutely heroic had come along and proved themselves to be worthy of the hammers strange set of standards. <br/><br/>In the end however, Loki decided that he might as well be honest with his brother; He had seen where the path of withholding information from people had led to and it wasn't pretty. ""Mjolnir is currently resting at Stark Tower in New York; Tarene left it there and I doubt anyone has been able to move it since.""<br/><br/>Thor glanced down at the floor for the moment, debating quietly if he should ask knowing Loki wasn't exactly a fan of the thing. It was a history of his pain and misery, made physical to insult him every time he so much as glanced at it. Finally Thor glanced over to Loki and made it clear in his voice how much what he asked for mattered. ""I know you despise the thing, but bring me to it."" Thor asked with a stern, but calm tone. ""If nothing else, I do not trust a midgardian to take it. Too much power for a mere mortal.""<br/><br/>A shake of his head was all Loki offered at the suggestion. ""If you want it back, you're going to have to get it yourself. As far as I am concerned, anyone who can claim it deserves to have it... Through I'm happy to help you get to it if you wish.""<br/><br/>A serious look came over Loki's face as he looked at Thor. ""First through, I need to speak to you about why I am here. Have you ever heard of S.H.I.E.L.D?"" </div>"

Some men are just born with a tendency towards wrongdoing and evil.  Others, like Simon, found themselves in difficult situations that called for desperate measures.  Williams Innovations had been founded by Simon’s father as a conglomerate in military technology and weaponry.  Under his father, the business thrived as the late Mr. Williams supplied the United States with a good portion of its military supplies.  However, once Simon’s father died, opinion turned against Simon because the business world did not believe in someone at Simon’s young age could run such a company.  Stocks dropped and contracts were pulled.  In a matter of a few years, Williams Innovations fell from the ranks of the conglomerate juggernauts.<br/><br/>	Then the hostile takeovers came.  Rival corporations, like Roxxon and OsCorp began to buy up stock in a bid to take over Williams Innovations.  Before Simon’s eyes, the company that his father had built with his own blood and sweat was crumbling in the wake of the wolves of rival conglomerates.  Now desperate for any chance to save his father’s company, Simon turned to his older brother, Eric.  In order to protect Williams Innovations, Simon would have to raise a large sum of capital in order to counter the moves the companies bidding for his father’s legacy.  However, there was no way of producing that much money legally.  Therefore, by the advice of his brother, Simon laundered company money in shady overseas activities, probably tied with HYDRA and AIM activities.  While the profit that could be made from this strategy was immense, the risk of being discovered was even greater.<br/><br/>	However, Simon was not quite lucky in this regard.  Once it was discovered that Simon had laundered company money into shady and probably illegal activities, his career as a business man was officially over.  Having been taken up on charges of laundering of company money, Simon saw no way out.  The final straw was when another major company, <span class=""bb-i"">Thomas Technologies</span>, swooped in and bought out all the other shares in Williams Innovations from the rival corporations that had set their rapacious eyes on what they considered easy prey.  Now that Simon had lost his credibility as a business man and the company that his father had built from scratch, there was only one option left for Simon: desperation.  Against his own better judgement, Simon went back to his brother, who had gotten him into the illegal activities in the first.  Seeking vengeance on the business men who either had tried to or did steal his company away from him, like Norman Osborn or Wayne Thomas, Simon agreed to become the Guinea pig for a bizarre experiment that was being conducted by AIM so that he might acquire the power to punish those who had ruined his life.<br/><br/>	It was now time for the Zeta beam to be fired.  Even if Simon had begun to develop second guesses about what he had signed up for, it was nevertheless too late to stop.  A pillar of purple light enveloped Simon, which sent waves of pain throughout his body.  It almost felt as if his very atoms were being pulled apart.  Only momentarily did the pain stop when, for whatsoever reason, the experiment was interrupted.  However, Simon didn’t know who was interfering.  But the pain returned, tenfold what is was mere seconds ago when a second column of purple light descended down to the floor, larger than the last one.<br/><br/>	Due to how painful the experience was, Simon thought this was going to be his end.  However, once the purple light dissipated, he discovered that he had in fact survived the experiment of those mad scientists who were dressed like beekeepers.  He now had the power to punish those who had stolen everything from him.  Now feeling the ionic energy pulsing throughout his body, Simon launched himself up towards the ceiling, smashing through the building material in a way that he would not have otherwise been able to do before the AIM experiment.  Since he was airborne, Simon soared towards the place where he could find the man who had stolen his father’s company: Thomas Technologies.<br/><br/>	In a matter of minutes, Simon was bursting into one of the upper floors of the New York executive office of Thomas Technologies.  Chaos ensued as Simon tore up the place while looking for Wayne Thomas.  Terror-stricken employees scrambled for the exits as they tried to put as much distance as they could between themselves and this purple monstrosity.  However, when he could not find the man that had bought up his company, Simon let out a shout.<br/><br/> <font color=""#6a5acd"">“Where are you, Wayne Thomas, you thief!”</font><br/><br/>	“Whom are you accusing of being a thief?”  Simon Williams turned to face whoever had replied to his outburst.  He had expected Wayne Thomas to have been the culprit.  However, he discovered a man clad entirely in black.  He had a dark cape flowing behind him, while a hood concealed his face.  Only the glare of red eyes could be seen from under that hood.  Underneath the cape, the man wore protective armor.  This was <span class=""bb-b"">the Rider</span>.<br/><br/> <font color=""#6a5acd"">“Who the hell are you supposed to be?”</font><br/><br/>	“I put down those who terrorize the innocent.”  The Rider threatened as he pulled out a few shuriken from beneath his cape.  Almost as soon as he had finished speaking, the Rider had flung the concealed weapons towards Simon.  Although the Rider’s aim was on the mark, Simon merely raised his palm up and incinerated the hooded man’s projectiles.  Even the Rider had to leap out of the way of the purple beam of ionic energy, lest he be roasted alive by Simon’s attack.<br/><br/> <font color=""#6a5acd"">“I like to see you try.”</font><br/></div>"

It beat fiercely, defying what came forth from her mouth. She was lying. Zhib-Ran hid his anger and disappointment well; only someone with his sort of...skills would be able to tell that anything was amiss. Milton offered the young heroine a smile and a nod. ""Ah, well. Worth a try. Come, fly with me. I'm sure that Captain America wants to meet you in person, especially since you've chosen to accept our offer. He seemed most intrigued by you, miss."" Hyperion casually stepped off the edge of the penthouse roof and took flight. He made sure to move slowly, so that the recruit could keep pace. A quiet beep in Hyperion's ear came from his communicator. He touched the device. ""Go ahead."" An agent began to explain. There was a change of plans, apparently. It would seem that Hawkeye's squad had gotten stuck fighting AIM and Milton was now being asked to test the Avengers team personally. The idea brought a small smirk to Zhib-Ran's face. Knowing he would need to face these humans once more in the near future, it made sense to get a feeling for their powers, skills and strategies now. If he knew how they operated, Hyperion could deal with them quite easily when the time came for his take over of earth. He thanked the operator on the other end for the information and turned to his companion to explain why they would be changing their flight course.<br/><br/>""We will be heading for the Triskellion. Cap ordered the team to meet up there for their evaluation. Fury wanted Hawkeye's squad to test you all, but apparently he's been caught up in more important business. So the task has been regulated to me."" Hyperion realized that Miss America probably had no idea who Hawkeye was and decided to elaborate for her benefit. ""Hawkeye is one of SHIELD's best agents and is indisputably the best marksmen on the planet. I've seen him shoot the wings off a fly from nearly a mile away and leave it alive. The crazy part? <span class=""bb-i"">He did it with a bow.""</span> <br/><br/>Hyperion increased his speed as they continued to fly onward. He wanted to test Miss America's powers as much as he could. He was constantly evaluating, scanning and judging everyone he came across, but this was a special case. Miss America posed a unique threat to Hyperion's plans. If she were to reveal whatever she knew of him to Fury or the Captain, Hyperion's credibility might come into question. SHIELD could retaliate before Hyperion was truly ready. That could not occur.<br/><br/>Miss America would need to be dealt with soon. Very soon.<br/><br/>But not now. Too much suspicion would be cast on Milton if the girl vanished under his watch. That he could not afford either. Gah, intrigue was far too complicated for Zhib-Ran's tastes. If he had his way, he'd be marching into the United Nations and ordering this disgusting planet to bend the knee. But there were beings on this planet with extraordinary abilities. If they rallied together against Hyperion, there wasn't much the would-be tyrant could do to stop them. For now, he would need to wait. Play this game of lying and infiltrating. This was always Nighthawk's cup of tea; Hyperion was more a fan of hitting things.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>The pair of superhumans landed right outside of the Triskellion. What was once known as Camp Leigh was now SHIELD's main base of operations. The flight had taken longer than usual, but they had arrived on schedule. The Quinjets full of SHIELD Agents were right behind them; they contained everyone found at the scene. Quentin and Kate were being brought in for questioning, while the rest had prison to look forward to. Hyperion walked towards the front door of the cylindrical building, passing by the statue of Steven Rogers, the original Captain America, as well as the flag of the United States of America that stood beside it. The front entrance was made entirely of glass. The windows allowed a clear view of the massive black eagle statue, which dominated the back of the lobby. Hyperion escorted Chavez past the main atrium and the reception and followed a weaving labyrinth of hallways and elevators until they finally arrived at a non-descript doorway.<br/><br/>Zhib-Ran punched a couple of buttons in and the door slid open. He motioned inside with his hand. ""After you."" Miss America stepped inside, Hyperion following behind her. he looked at the individuals within. They were the potential Avengers recruits. The heroes who would stand between him and victory. ""My name is Hyperion. I'll be evaluating your combat skills and your ability to work as a team. Your first test starts...now."" Hyperion's eyes lit up crimson and a pair of continuous beams of energy shot out from his retinas, heading right for Miss America.</div>"

This didn't matter of course when they wore such big sunglasses. Enjoying the warmth while they still could, by late September the weather would turn cold and then they would get to wear their expensive coats and boots. Northstar, out of costume and on his third floor terrace, was quite the sight for some of them.  <br/><br/>It was just under twenty-eight hundred miles back to Twin Peaks, Washington, so any time Louis got home sick it would only take around twenty to thirty minutes to fly there going as fast as Mach 10. It all just depended on which way the wind was blowing and if there was any more severe weather to avoid. Feeling it was as good a time as any to get some fresh air, Louis put on his Northstar suit and bolted out of his terrace door so that nobody would realize yet just who he was. The mutant hero was rich, but nobody was able to put two and two together when he vibrated his molecules enough to mess up any picture or recording devices that caught him in a clearer view. It was a trick he'd learned from some super fast hero in a comic book as a teenager.<br/><br/>""Tabitha is a sweet girl. A bit loud sometimes, but she's grown on me the last couple months since moving here..."" Louis thought, now high above the city skyline with the tall buildings beneath him.<br/><br/>""It's still taking some time getting used to the pace of the city, I'm not used to this many people being around. Thankfully I'm not the only superhero on this side of the 'States."" he continued thinking as he flew over the city. <br/><br/>Down below, a man clad in red and white with large forearms looked up through binoculars at the mutant hero. <br/><br/>""That really him, 'Dozer? Doesn't look like somebody who could stand against the Wrecking Crew..."" asked Piledriver tossing the binoculars to their leader.<br/><br/>""He's a lot tougher than he looks. Trust me."" replied the yellow clad steel plated villain.<br/><br/>""Even one man down, this guy's gonna get what's coming to him. Tonight. Nobody makes fools of the 'Crew..."" exclaimed Wrecker with his enchanted crowbar in hand, ""This thing can knock down demi-Gods, this mutant superhero ain't got a snowball's chance...""<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

He began to walk through the fog of smoke towards a ladder that led up to a separate upper level in that room.  “That’s why my, well, investors decided to provide a little help, just in case anyone decided to interfere with my experiments.  Well, I guess this is my cue to exit stage right.”<br/><br/>	“I don’t think so.”  Cyclops shouted from his perch above, while he aimed his visor at the ladder so that he could wreck Landon’s means of escape before he could climb up it.  Although Cyclops was successful in putting the ladder out of commission without injuring Landon, a bullet whirled right past his head, missing it by only inches.  Instinctively, Cyclops hit the deck, diving for the floor of the upper deck so that he could protect himself from the marksman below.<br/><br/>	“Quicksilver, I thought I told you to disarm everyone down here!”  Cyclops shouted into the ‘x’ shaped communicator.<br/><br/>	“You could have killed me!”  Landon yelled up towards Cyclops, “By breaking into this facility, your actions only prove my point that the world needs my formula.  You are a disease that is killing off humanity!”<br/><br/>	“Funny coming from the man who would willingly use humans as Guinea pigs.”  Iceman taunted back.  At that moment, Bobby Drake was trying to freeze the chemicals within the vat in the center of the room.  If you cannot stop the cages from being moved over to the vat of chemicals, you might as well try to prevent them from being submerged.  So far, he had only managed the create a thick layer of ice (or rather a layer of the chemical in a frozen state), but there was plenty of liquid still underneath that layer of ice.  Suddenly, something swung out of nowhere and knocked Iceman down onto the floor.  All Bobby could discern from the situation was that he saw a red and blue blur come straight at him.<br/><br/>	When Iceman began to pick himself off the ground, he saw someone in a red and blue costume standing before him.  Confused at what he was seeing, Bobby said, “Webhead, what are you thinking?  We’re on the same side!”<br/><br/>	“What are you talking about?”  Spider-Man called out to Bobby, but the X-Man realized that that voice did not come from the costumed man who was standing in front of him.  Instead, it came from the guy, wearing the same exact suit, who was trying to hold back the cages containing Nightcrawler and Firestar, hoping not to electrocute himself.<br/><br/>	“Holy cow!”  Iceman exclaimed when he realized that there were <span class=""bb-b"">two</span> Spider-men.  “Unless I have double vision, we have a shapeshifter down here!”<br/></div>"

He was a superhero now, but his only power was flying and being able to heal quicker than most. There was something missing. Warren studied what heroes had been in the media recently. A flying man clad in red, white, and blue who wielded a similarly colored shield, a powerful woman with a hammer, etc. The rookie costumed adventurer and billionaire thought he might finally be on to something. What he needed was a weapon, however no branch of Worthington Industries was into weapons manufacturing. Archangel couldn't just use some weapon of the street or bought at a comic book convention, he needed something more original than that with a tad more power...<br/><br/>""Lucy..?"" Warren asked from behind his desk in his top floor office, pressing a button on his phone.<br/><br/>An attractive woman walked through the doors. Lucy had been his secretary since he took over. Warren gave her the position after seeing his father mistreat her his last few weeks in the boss' office. She was always good at her job, but she was never given proper credit. Originally she worked a couple floors down as one of the many employees working in the filing office. <br/><br/>""What can I do for you, Mr. Worthington?"" she replied with a smile and big blue eyes from behind her glasses.<br/><br/>""You can start by calling me Warren. Mr. Worthington was my father and this is no longer his office..."" Warren responded, clad in his business suit and custom coat made for concealing his wings. <br/><br/>""Yes sir, no problem Warren. You need me to go get lunch, a coffee..?"" Lucy asked.<br/><br/>""I need you to put in a call to Stark Tech....""

Having gotten a detour to LA on his way back to Stark Tech.  ""Hey thanks for the ride man.""  Tony called back to the pilot who from his seat held up a soda cup to Tony.  ""No problem, thanks for lunch Mr. Stark!""  The pilot called back as the transporter began to take off.  Leaving Tony on the helipad to walk back in.  Immediately noticing the clean up crew did a magnificent job.  All the destroyed things having been removed and cleaned away leaving an office and reception area that, while fairly empty now, were clean and tidy.  <br/><br/>""Tony!""  The sudden exclamation from the door leading into the reception area caught Tony off guard as suddenly Pepper Potts came running in, clinching Tony in a friendly bear hug.  ""You okay now?  You look a lot better than I last saw you.""  Pepper noted seeing Tony's now perfectly fine looking arm.<br/><br/>""Whoa hey be careful Pepper I already got attacked today!""  Tony joked smiling at seeing Pepper again.  As much as her prodding him could get on his nerves sometimes, he was never going to say he never didn't like seeing her.  ""Yeah I'm fine, Victoria healed it completely.  But...""  Tony quickly realized something.  ""I gave you guys the go ahead to head home early today, why are you still here?""<br/><br/>Pepper let go of Tony, collapsing onto Tony's still fine office chair.  ""I got too distracted helping with the clean up to think about it, plus I don't think I would've been able to even if I had wanted.  Rhodes was the same but he just left a moment ago when his wife wanted him too.""  Pepper told Stark thinking back how she took the time to pick up all of Tony's now retired Iron Man suit.  ""Plus I was worried about you...""  She glanced over and saw Tony's soda and bag of fast food.  ""Wait you went to In and Out and didn't get ME anything?!""  <br/><br/>""Why would I?  I thought you existed through sheer perkiness and driving me insane.""  Tony joked, pausing for Pepper's reaction before tossing her the bag.  ""Kidding, here I got you a double double and fries.  Turns out SHIELD's ships are really good at going from one end of the country to another.""  Tony remarked.<br/><br/>""Oh man you're the best!""  Pepper didn't need long to start digging into the bag of food.  ""Oh also, I have either good or bad news depending on how you want to look at it... but...""<br/><br/>""Good evening Mister Stark, I'm Warren Worthington the third."" the blond 20-something said as he entered the office, ""I think it's time the head of Worthington Industries met the CEO of Stark Tech..."" he continued, putting his hand out for a shake.<br/><br/>~KL~ / DrewVonAwesome<br/></div>"

From S.H.I.E.L.D. intelligence, this “purple man” seemed to have headed towards Thomas Technologies.  What he (or it) wanted with that company was anyone’s best guess.  While the other S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives were grilling the AIM scientists whom S.H.I.E.L.D. had managed to capture, Hawkeye and Mockingbird were sent ahead of any other deployment forces in order to scout out the threat level that this “purple man” was displaying.<br/><br/>	Once the two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had finally arrived at the New York headquarters for Thomas Technologies, they saw that there was already a hole punctured into the side of the building, no doubt where the AIM experiment had broken his way into the facility.<br/><br/>	“Well, Director Fury will be glad to know that we don’t have to create an entrance into this place.”  Hawkeye joked with the blonde agent who was seated behind him on the Sky-Cycle.  However, the only response that Hawkeye received from that comment was a light slap on the back of the head as Mockingbird tried to get his mind focused on the serious task at hand.<br/><br/>	“Alright, alright!  You don’t have to hit me!  That’s the bad guy’s job!”  Although he cracked a grin on this face, Hawkeye quickly accelerated his floating vehicle towards the opening in the side of the Thomas Technologies headquarters before Mockingbird could hit him again.<br/><br/>	Now that the Sky-Cycle was positioned right beside the makeshift entrance, Hawkeye pulled out a specialized arrow form his quiver that would act like grappling hook and notched it into his bow.  Drawing the bowstring all the way back to his chin, the purple archer took aim at a nearby structural column.  In a matter of seconds, the arrowhead had drilled itself into the sturdy column.  Attached to the arrow was a zip line that would allow the two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to descend down to the floor in a safe manner.<br/><br/>	Hawkeye descended down first in order to make sure that the coast was clear.  Better that only one person would fall into a trap instead of the both of them.  Otherwise, Mockingbird would not be in position to rescue Hawkeye or signal for reinforcements.  When Hawkeye signaled up to Mockingbird that it was safe to come down, she slid down the zip line and loaded next to the purple archer.<br/><br/>	“It seems quiet.  Too quiet for a building that has been invaded by whatever those beekeeper scientists cooked up in their lab.”  Hawkeye would soon regret those words, since as soon as those words left his mouth, an explosion burst through one of the wall on the far side of the large room that Hawkeye and Mockingbird had found themselves in.  Through the newly created hole in the wall, a man dressed entirely in black was thrown out towards the center of the room.  Although he did not land anywhere near where Hawkeye and Mockingbird were standing, he still traveled quite a distance.  Then, the one responsible for throwing the dark-clad man walked through the opening in the wall.<br/><br/>	“Base.  We have located the target.  It looks like that our purple ‘Dr. Manhattan’ is fighting…”  Hawkeye paused for a second to get a better look of the combatant who has been fighting with their target.  “Um, looks like he’s fighting a Batman wannabe.  What are our orders?”</div>"

He wasn't really drinking it, not really. He was letting the heat from the coffee fill his hands in a bid to try and heat himself up. He'd have to remember next time he ran from someone and stole clothes he'd need to steal something warmer. Maybe a nice warm fluffy jacket instead of a run down hoody. He chuckled to himself slightly, this wasn't exactly the kind of look he would have expected himself to have a year ago. He must look like some form of addict, rugged, shivering and clutching onto this cup as if for dear life. He lifted it to his lips, sipping only the smallest amount of liquid letting it linger in his mouth for a moment. He didn't know what it was about the bitter taste but he had always enjoyed it, maybe that was just part of being a scientist.<br/><br/>Decaf however... it seemed pointless. The only reason he was drinking it was to try and get rid of the craving he was having for coffee and he didn't exactly feel safe having ordinary coffee. He hadn't had any since the accident and there was no real telling what would happen if caffine entered his system. It could cause a reaction, it might not. He wasn't really willing to take the risk. There was a ding from the bell on the door and he put his cup down slowly, turning his head slightly to see who entered the door. When he saw it was just some random tourists he let go of a breath he didn't realize he was holding. Being on the run like this would never give him the chance he needed to find out what happened and how to reverse it, the stress itself would end up killing him.<br/><br/>The problem right now was he needed a base, somewhere to go where he could conduct his research. Now there were plenty of places he could go to be secluded the problem was there weren't many with the equipment he needed where he wouldn't be recognized or apprehended for tresspassing. Not to mention the only person he could probably trust was still in the hospital from the day of the accident. Well, there was that Loki character. However he was a bit of an unknown variable and he wasn't really willing to label that relationship with <span class=""bb-i"">trust</span> yet. Maybe <span class=""bb-i"">he isn't immediately trying to harm me</span>. Still, the whole unknown part made him pretty hard to get in contact with to figure out where he stood.<br/><br/>He sighed as he took another sip from his mug, at least things had went quiet. He had time to think, which was better than nothing.</div>"

I have to say...” Tony noted to Pepper who had given Tony his seat at his desk back for the deal.  Which Tony leaned back on comfortably.  “Not to mention, now that he's gone.  I mean I'm not gay or anything... but that guy... I would do.”  Tony told Pepper as she chuckled at his frank nature.<br/><br/>“I mean... can't say I would say no either...”  Pepper noted.<br/><br/>Tony frowned quickly.  “I mean maybe that hair is kind of glam rock-y.”  He noted thinking about it.  “Still I have to say I don't get why you thought he'd be bad to meet Pepper, seemed like a nice guy.”  Tony didn't realize with his back to the entrance to his still in repair office that the real problem was coming in.<br/><br/>“Well... I didn't realize Mr. Worthington was coming in, I actually meant...”<br/><br/>“IF IT ISN'T THE BESTEST CEO EVER!”<br/><br/>Tony paused slowly turning to the entrance, sighing and quietly shaking his head.  “Okay I think I get it now.”  Tony noted.<br/><br/>“Oh don't be like that Tony!”  Will “Willy” Lumpkins, Tony Starks' PR agent.  The young British man with blond hair was good at his job admittedly.  Tony though always felt like the guy... bless his heart... tries WAY TOO HARD.  It can get on his nerves sometimes.  Still though Willy clearly had an idea and Tony was going to give him a listen.<br/><br/>Willy finally glanced around the office and reception room, and realized something was going on.  “Wait Tony, you remodeling?”<br/><br/>Tony paused.  “Yes, a nice Goddess lady wanted to rework my office using my face as a paintbrush, now whats going on?”<br/><br/>Willy paused confused at what Tony said but moved on.  “Well.  I have something that might be of interest...”  He told Tony putting a copy of the morning newspaper at his desk.<br/><br/>Reed could only let out a sheepish grin when the SHIELD agents found him and Sue sleeping together when they were suppose to be in separate rooms. Though in actuality it seemed like Coulson was more impressed of the how Reed did it, than angry about Reed breaking the order in the first place. Still the orders were still that the four needed to get physicals from SHIELD's doctors to make sure they're okay to go back into normal society.<br/><br/>As the four were escorted to the medical bay Reed couldn't help but notice the quiet and frankly shoulders drooped Ben as he tagged along. Reed didn't ask but he knew Ben had come down from the high of all the action in Vegas. Now realizing whatever this thing was he had turned into might just be who he is now. Reed felt bad for him, but at the moment he wasn't sure if he should say anything at the moment. Not to mention he didn't know what to say in the first place.<br/><br/>The physical for Reed at least went well. A lot of notes were taken, and nothing that really felt violating occurred. So far Reed didn't really get much of a sense of SHIELD caging them up or making them some kind of prisoners. Heck they were offered breakfast even though Reed wasn't hungry personally.<br/><br/>Finally after his tests were done Reed was led over to a waiting room where he took a seat. Watching Ben trudge in slowly a little while after. Reed watched his friend clearly struggling as Reed squirmed in his seat a little. ""So... you alright?"" Reed started, not sure what else to say.<br/><br/>""Yeah, feeling like a million fucking bucks Reed."" Ben quietly replied, the sarcasm oozing out of Ben's now nonexistent lips as he went to take his own seat. Only for the chair to immediately buckle under the weight and collapse leaving Ben hitting the ground and sighing frustrated.  <br/><br/>Johnny woke up in his quarters. He figured Reed and Sue would get caught, as he walked out to see what was going on. ""Nice one, Reed!"" He said, laughing. It was very, very funny. If only dad saw these two right now. It would've been hilarious.<br/><br/>Johnny's physical went fine. Besides the fact, that he sorta ignited into flames as he felt a little violated. They had to shoot him with the fire extinguisher, twice. He wondered how he'd control the power. Seriously, he needs to figure it out and out very fast before he catches a SHIELD agent on fire, then he'd be really toasted. Hah, toasted. Johnny noticed how Ben was doing, Ben did not look happy at all. Reed look concerned, and Sue, well he can never read Sue.<br/><br/>After the tests were done, (Very hectic tests for Johnny.) the four were offered breakfast, He practically inhaled his food, he was super hungry. Probably since he hadn't really ate much in Vegas. There wasn't much to do around here, but the SHIELD agents were very friendly. Funny, one of them was a pretty hot woman. He hitted on her, to get nearly tased by her. Good job, Hot Head. Aaah, he liked it here.<br/><br/>He walked over to Reed, ""So when do we get to leave?"" Johnny asked, but then he noticed how Ben was looking and Reed was trying to comfort him, so he backed off. He didn't want to get on the orange rock's bad side. Honestly, he thought the Hulk was cool, so being something like the Hulk was actually kind of cooler. <br/><br/>Reed glanced up, seeing Johnny before him. His hand holding his head up at his chin. ""Uh shouldn't be much longer, that Coulson guy said they're just processing the results right now."" Reed noted before adjusting his glasses a bit. ""It sounded like we should be good."" As Reed mentioned it though it made him remember Harvey. Outside of maybe Ben Reed knew that life could go on for them. Harvey though, he couldn't even come up with a theory if Harvey even has control anymore of himself. Most importantly could Harvey even be saved? It rang in his mind if he could fix what happened to any of them. Especially not even still being sure what happened to them in the first place. <br/><br/>Johnny looked at Reed, ""Don't tell me you're thinking all this is your fault again."" Johnny sat down next to Ben and Reed. ""Reed, have you thought, that maybe...I don't know, fate did this to us, not you?"" Johnny gave him a reassuring smile. He seriously didn't think it was Reed's fault. Reed was only trying to make a break through in Science. Johnny patted the nerd on the back. ""And honestly, I think these powers are pretty cool."" Johnny thought they could be real heroes, like the Justice League. But, knowing Reed. He'll probably won't agree to this, and try to cure them. Well, Johnny will see what happens.  “Seriously though like if we got this going for us we'll need codenames right?  Like uh... Elastic Guy... uh Invisible Girl, oh Human Torch for me!  Ben can be uh... a thing?”<br/><br/>Sue awoke calmly in Reed's arms that morning and thought she was going to be in big trouble with Coulson who found them in the same cell. Alas, she was wrong and a sigh of relief escaped her lips as she was merely escorted to her physicals. That in itself was quite the challenge for the SHIELD doctors. As they tried to put a needle in her arm to take some blood, she wen nervous and turned invisible. They didn't know <span class=""bb-i"">where</span> to inject! She came back into view after a few moments and they proceeded once again and before they could inject the needle she turned invisible again.<br/><br/>""Come on Miss Storm try to control your emotions."" The doctor stated as she took a deep breath. She returned to her physical form once more. And then she looked up at the doorway, she saw a woman standing there.<br/><br/>""Don't be afraid."" Came her comforting and angelic voice. Sue blinked her eyes at the long haired brunette and stared at her because she had wings sprouted from her back. Her presence was calming and even Sue noticed her beauty. Sue was looking at the Valkyrie, whom smiled gently at the younger blonde girl and then slowly turned away as the doctors were able to continue their work with a calmer Sue Storm as their patient. ""Who...was that?"" She inquired as her mind was too pre-occupied with curiosity to be nervous anymore. <br/><br/>""That was Agent Parrington. The Valkyrie."" The doctor replied and Sue nodded with awe. ""She's...really something."" She stated with a much calmer demeanor. If she could be half as strong as the infamous Valkyrie, then she would do her best to try. For Harvey's sake, for Reed's, Ben's and Johnny's. She smiled then, looking up to the SHIELD operative with hope. Valkyrie knew more than anyone what it was like to feel like a freak upon the discovery of one's power. She sensed Sue's inner turmoil and merely passed by on her way from parting ways with Tony Stark. Regrettably passing Loki on the way - she could have been angrier but Sue managed to distract her by needing her comfort. <br/><br/>Sue emerged from the physician's room last, seeing the other three had gathered. The real fun began when they tried X-raying her and the rays were bouncing off her body when invisible. So they figured it out that light particles were bending around her when in that state, rendering her unseen to the human naked eye. But could she be seen by other entities, aliens or the magically imbued. Such as the likes of Loki and Valkyrie? That remains unanswered for now, she was just glad to be out of there. She walked up to her brother who seemed in high spirits. She placed a hand on her hip. ""You've given us names already?"" She seemed put out not really sure if she liked her new nickname. <br/><br/>""Harvey is out there somewhere suffering, Ben doesn't even know what he turns into and you're here giving us stupid names? Honestly Johnny...there is a time and a place little brother."" She sighed, still worried about her friend. It wasn't that she was mad at Johnny. She was just incredibly stressed out by all of this, she made a conscious effort to not argue or bicker with Johnny now they were older. She was struggling to understand how the mutation even happened. It just didn't make any sense in her scientific brain. Perhaps Reed would be the best of them to figure out what went wrong, maybe he could figure out a way to reverse it. She turned to 'Elastic Guy' finally with worry. ""Any news about him?"" She tilted her head slightly, her blonde long locks shifting slightly over her right shoulder and the ends curling up slightly. ""I know you still feel guilty, but you have to put that behind you now and look forward, not back."" She was good at giving advice and comfort to others sometimes, too. She placed a caring hand on Reed's shoulder. ""I've just met the Valkyrie. She was amazing. She was able to calm me down just by smiling at me."" But something about her seemed so...lonely to Sue. How she used to look when pining for Reed before they confessed their feelings, she'd seen that look too many times in the mirror. ""If SHIELD create people like her...then there is definitively hope for us five."" Harvey especially so.<br/><br/>As Reed glanced up at Johnny and his... active imagination for superhero aliases. It probably didn't help his situation with Susan that the very first thought out of Reed's head on the idea, which he asked aloud, was ""Wouldn't it be less condescending for Susan to be Invisible Woman instead of Girl?"" <br/><br/>""Reed!"" Susan piped in.<br/><br/>""WH-I mean no Johnny we can't be thinking that yet, there's a lot more important matters to figure out first."" Reed pointed out, his original thought before Susan's alias was something he wondered about. Looking like he was about to sweat bullets from inuring Susan's wraith. With her newfound powers who knows what she could do to him and his stretchy self.<br/><br/>""Yeah, so cram it matchstick."" Ben grunted to Johnny as he glanced up for a moment.<br/><br/>""Not to interrupt this conversation, but I have good news."" Turning to look over Reed saw Agent Coulson holding a small pile of manila envelopes. ""The physicals came in clean, so the four of you are free to go."" <br/><br/>As soon as Johnny heard that they could go. ""YEEEAAAH!"" He fist pumped the air, yet his fist ignited into flames. Yeah, crap, he forgot about how his emotions work with his powers. ""Flame off, Flame off!"" The flame stopped, and he sighed in relief, then noticed how he just embarrassed himself in front of everyone. Yikes.<br/><br/>He was pretty happy about this, he was getting more bored the minute being in a base. But now they could go!<br/><br/>Reed raised an eyebrow about it. ""So you're not going to hold us any further?""<br/><br/>""Even if we wanted too, we have guidelines. The only way we could if the four of you volunteered to do so. However based on your files I can't say the four of you strike me as SHIELD material.""<br/><br/>Reed ignored the not so subtle dig. Folding his arms quietly.<br/><br/>""Regardless we have a transporter craft ready to bring the four of you and your father back to the Baxter Building."" Coulson told them. He told the four with a steady tone as Reed stood up from his head.<br/><br/>""Sir, before we get too far ahead of ourselves. What about Harvey? What's his condition?"" Reed asked, a slight worry in his voice.<br/><br/>""We have him in a secure base, subdued but conscious. We've been trying to figure out a way to possibly revert his condition, if its even possible.""<br/><br/>Reed paused, ""Well I'm willing to do whatever SHIELD wants me too to help with that.""<br/><br/>Coulson smiled, pulling out of his coat a small vile containing something red. ""We were hoping you'd say so. This is a sample of his blood. If you need something else or to see him in person don't be afraid to ask.""<br/><br/>After getting the blood sample, Reed rejoined the four, with Dr. Storm in his wheelchair having also been cleared medically, all got into the transporter to fly back to New York City. There wasn't much talked about since the trip was fairly short. Reed was still marveled by the craft, and his mind started to spark something of an idea. When they got to the helipad though Reed quickly had his thoughts interrupted in a way he wasn't expecting.<br/><br/>Awaiting them were two people, one of whom was very immediately recognizable. Anthony Stark, CEO of Stark Tech. The other guy, a blond haired man in shades, button up shirt, and jeans. Didn't look nearly as familiar to Reed but regardless the young man was all smiles. ""There's the heroes of the day! How are the great heroes doing?"" The young man quickly reached out and shook Reed's hand, though before he could let go, the young man pulled on Reed's arm watching it pull out like taffy. ""Wow its even cooler in person! You guys sure are some...""<br/><br/>""Will shut up will ya?"" Tony told the eager young man as he finally let go of Reed's hand. <br/><br/>""Sorry, just a bit eager to be meeting the four of you is all."" Will noted backing away a little. <br/><br/>Tony shook his head, ""Reed, good meeting you again."" Tony reached out and this time Reed was a bit more eager to shake his hand.<br/><br/>Ben glanced between the two as they shook hands, and his own issues were temporarily gone. ""Wait Reed you know Tony Stark?"" He asked, genuinely shocked by the idea.<br/><br/>""Well yeah... we'll talk about it later but... Tony what are you doing here? And who's this guy?"" Reed asked gesturing to Will. Who quickly reached into his shirt pocket, pulling out business cards for him and the others. ""Will Lumpkins, PR agent for Mr. Stark and well... I happen to have a business proposition for the four of you.""<br/><br/>""The Hell you do pal!"" Mr. Storm called out from the craft as Reed held a hand up to him. <br/><br/>""Hold on, lets at least hear him out first."" Reed politely said to Mr. Storm.<br/><br/>Then two guys walked up to the four, one was Tony Stark, the other was a guy another blonde. The blonde pulled on Reed's arm like it was plastic. This would be pretty interesting. Apparently, the blonde guy was named Will Lumpkins? Hah! <br/><br/>""A job?"" Johnny asked. Knowing his father, of course he would try to step in. Reed got his dad to chill out, fortunately. The job probably had to do with the use of their super powers. Johnny thought about, they did need the money. ""What's the job about?"" He asked. <br/><br/>The four along with Susan and Johnny's father all went into Dr. Storm's meeting room where they all sat at various chairs, Will stayed up at the end of the table where a white erase board was. Ben sat on the floor to not likely break one of the office chairs. Tony sat near the front while Reed was sitting across from him. ""Alright so, basically the four of you are already known, and shown that you each have a heroic side. It's cool, people need guys and gals like the four of you to look up too. With all these superheroes coming out of the woodwork, like Mr. Stark here...""<br/><br/>""Will?"" Tony piped in with.<br/><br/>""Yeah?""<br/><br/>""Shut up, I don't pay extra for brown nosing."" Tony's basic stating while his arms were folded said everything.<br/><br/>Will looked a bit embarrassed and awkward for a moment before coughing. ""Right, well what I was going to suggest is this could be a great time to get in on things. Alright picture this... the four of you... a publicly known superhero team!"" Will paused for what he was expecting was uproarious celebrating for his idea, only it got a brief awkward quiet.<br/><br/>Reed coughed a bit to kill the silence. ""Uh... its a thought."" He noted giving it admittedly more thought than he knew he should. <br/><br/>""Here's the thing though."" Tony piped in with. ""The group can be a non-profit organization given current tax laws, meaning that while your tax reports would become public knowledge you guys could also stand to make a nice profit. Play off of being celebrities, do genuine good for the people. Will can be a bit... 'special'... with his thought process but I do think this is the ground work for something special. Heck its why I'm here."" Tony stood up himself. ""Stark Tech, if you guys take this idea seriously, would be happy to sponsor you. I wouldn't ask you guys to wear the company logo on you or anything stupid like that. But work with you guys and help out however we can. Even if it means bringing in the Iron Man project if need be."" Tony brought it up, though deep down he was still debating things, but given business doesn't work on maybes he just kept the idea going it was still a thing.<br/><br/>""It would help implement a steady income for the four of you, plus if you need equipment if Starktech doesn't make it, I know someone who does. Plus your success will help rub off on us more so."" Tony sold his point to the idea so much more effortlessly than Will did, which even impressed the PR person.<br/><br/>""Besides Reed..."" Stark glanced over at Reed and folded his arms a bit. ""Given what's happened, you do kind of owe me one.""<br/><br/>Reed paused thinking about the point Stark raised. The notable reaction made Reed realize he stuck out like a sore thumb. <br/><br/>Susan Storm sat back in her chair with arms folded. ""With all due respect Mister...Pumpkins.""<br/><br/>""Lumpkins.""<br/><br/>""Lumpkins.."" (How was that any better, she thought?) ""I don't want to parade around acting like heroes, and meet celebrities. That's not what we're about and why we were given these gifts."" <br/><br/>""It may be a gift to you Susie Q..."" Ben sighed across the table and Sue shot him a sympathetic glance. And even though her brother Johnny would absolutely love the chance to shower in the limelight, she had morals. ""I want to help people but I just don't want the fame that comes with it. And nor would poor Ben by the sounds of it either."" She was stubborn and adamant on this, taking a disliking to the publicity. ""I have no problem working with Stark Tech and becoming a superhero team. You may enjoy parading around in the Iron Man suit and lapping up attention. But I'm not like that.""<br/><br/>Sue then glanced between Reed and Tony. ""Reed...?"" She leaned over the table toward Reed with a suspicious tone and narrowing of her eyes. ""What did he mean...'OWE him one'?"" Acting like the girlfriend status already, not liking secrets or not being told anything Reed was doing or had been involved with. <br/><br/>Reed listened to Susan's quite reasonable counter arguments about them becoming celebrities and superheroes and such. Periodically Reed glanced over at Ben, though quickly looking away out of sheer guilt, and sometimes Johnny, watching him practically boiling over with the idea of becoming famous silently.<br/><br/>Suddenly though Susan's attention was right on him. In a way Reed had almost never seen before.<br/><br/>As Susan leaned in on him Reed's grin only got more and more awkward and he could only lean back harder and harder against his seat until he was almost paper flat against it. Finally he popped out letting out a weird chuckle which he quickly stopped, coughing. “Uh... okay so...” Reed began. “You remember how a few months ago you and me were up in our attic and found all of my dad's stuff? Earlier that day... I was at Stark Tech and had signed a contract to join on as a creative consultant. But well... I wanted to work on this, and um...” Reed stretched a hand over, which gently grasped the back of Susan's own. “I wanted to be around you more. So I backed out of the contract.”<br/><br/>“To give you an idea how well that went over with the legal department.” Tony Stark piped in with. “They were advising legal action against Reed. However considering his family's legacy I felt like I would've just been a terrible person. So I went against that, and I figured Reed could make it up to me sometime in the near future, IE today.” Tony noted, as Reed glanced over and realized that now, Susan's dad was glaring a hole through him quietly. Reed glanced away, wondering if his new elastic powers would save him from getting killed horribly.<br/><br/>“Now as much though, not to interrupt Mr. Stark...” Willy piped in with. “But in regards to the idea of not being celebrities. While I can respect, albeit it confusingly, the idea. It might not be possible.” With that Willy pulled out a newspaper and tossed it onto the table, which showed a large color image on the front of the battle in Las Vegas the night before. “The news has already identified all four of you, and even that the monster was your friend Harvey. That was how me and Mr. Stark even knew to come see you guys today. So while we certainly COULD try to hide your identities for a superhero project. It wouldn't work very well.”<br/><br/>“Not to mention I think you're looking at it the wrong way Ms. Storm.” Stark hopped in with seem less skill. “You're seeing the idea of a celebrity from the Kim Kardashian crazy attention whore status kind of way. While sure, I'm certainly guilty of that, its more because of how it brings attention to my company and its products. People just want to see me do that sort of thing, when I do charity events, or donate plenty of money to causes. People tend to ignore it. Not to toot my own horn or anything. Point is being a celebrity gives you guys a chance to do even more good beyond saving people and beat bad people up. You guys might not be able to even escape this celebrity status, but you can use it for something special. I mean have you guys seen the entrance of the Baxter Building since last night?”<br/><br/>As Stark brought it up, Reed stretched his head over, glancing down the window which faced the entrance of the Baxter Building. Sure enough the crowd was quite notable and took up a fairly large chunk of the street in front of the building. “Whoa...” Was all Reed could say.<br/><br/>“Thank God this building has two helipads, I don't even want to think what getting in here through the main entrance would've been like.” Stark noted aloud. <br/><br/>Johnny whistled at the sight that Reed was gawking at. He totally thought the four could become awesome heroes, and being famous!? That would be hella cool!<br/><br/>""So, Reed how do you feel about this, man? I have the superhero nicknames ready.."" He said, with a wide grin. ""We're gonna be heroes, or we're gonna be losers with superpowers?""<br/><br/>This might be fun, if they do it.<br/><br/>Man, he hopes that Reed says yes.<br/><br/>Well, Johnny could be a superhero by himself if they say no. He'd be awesome! <br/><br/>He could be....what was that nickname he made up earlier? Oh yeah, HUMAN TORCH!<br/><br/>Reed frowned a bit at Johnny's question, since he felt like Susan's younger brother could maybe could use better wording for the idea. ""I mean... I don't think we'd be 'losers' if we don't decide this."" Reed noted as Johnny was right next to him. Still Reed scratched his chin at the thought. On top of having Tony Stark's support, there was a lot to gain from it too, both money wise and status wise. Still Reed never considered himself the kind of guy who could be a celebrity. Then again, if Bill Nye and Neil Degrasse Tyson could do it....<br/><br/>""Well Mr. Stark, I think we need to agree to this if we're going to do it. So I think we'll need a bit to decide and I'll contact you personally."" Reed noted to him, as Tony nodded.<br/><br/>""Sure I figure as much..."" As Tony Stark shrugged his smart phone went off. He checked it and raised an eyebrow to it with a slight look of worry to it. ""Here I need to head back to work anyways. Let me know what you guys decide."" As Tony put his phone back into his pocket he started to leave until he noticed Willy was still there. ""Willy come on...""<br/><br/>""But I wanna help!"" Willy whined.<br/><br/>""They need some privacy..."" Tony sternly reminded him. Willy frowned as he left with Tony.<br/><br/>Reed watched them leave before taking a deep breath. ""Well personally I do think the idea could work. If we have superpowers this could be a good way to use them. Personally I say we should do it.""<br/><br/>""You're just wanting to suck up to Stark aren't you?"" Ben asked in a pretty mean spirited fashion. He was still fuming about how he was this... whatever the hell he is. Hearing the others talking about their powers as if it was some neat experience that would be fun and sunshine.<br/><br/>""Well... no. I mean I might go ahead and provide him my services regardless of what you guys want to do. But I mean it... I mean I don't know about any of you but I got into science for the same reason my parents did. I wanted to use it as a way to make the world a better place. So... maybe what I've done up until now hasn't quite gone to plan. I still think now with these powers..."" He stretched his limbs and torso out a bit standing up before going back. ""I could use them to make the world a better place. So if I have to do something maybe a bit avant-garde to accomplish it, then so be it. But what I would really want out of it is for all of you to be there with me. Everyone here has something special they can bring to the table, and I'm not just referring to your powers. Sue, I want to spend as much time with you as humanly possible."" He reached out again, gently holding her hand in his. ""Johnny, you could if nothing else be our voice for the public... as potentially dangerous as that idea is thinking about it."" After gesturing to Johnny he looked back at Ben. ""Ben, I don't know what I can do to promise you that will make you feel better about whats happened to you. But I still know what you've done for me and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to help you.""<br/><br/>Ben glanced up to Reed, ""You'll help find a way to get me back to normal?""<br/><br/>Reed smirked, giving Ben a nod. ""I promise.""<br/><br/>As Sue listened to Reed's speech about how they could make the world a better place by using their powers, she could not agree more. I mean, what if they were given these powers for a REASON? Sure celebrity status was a given side effect of their heroic actions. They would lose pretty much all of their privacy, however, she could lead by example. Empower women all over the world, inspire children to do the right thing, show people what it meant to have a moral code and a sense of justice. She sighed heavily and finally nodded as Reed took her hand. She gave him her beautiful smile. ""Alright then, Reed. I'm with you. But if we end up doing commercials for branded products, I am out of here."" She jested with a playful smirk.<br/><br/>Dr Storm rose from his seat then, infuriated at seeing Reed and Sue in a romantic capacity. ""The hell I will have MY daughter running around with a reckless, and too ambitious for his own good scientist, who almost got her killed!"" He obviously did not approve. Sue sharply turned her head toward him, her long blonde locks furrowed out and her eyes became evidently angry as she took up her free hand to point at her father directly. ""Dad! You don't have a say in who I do or do not associate with. You lost that right when you neglected me and Johnny for your work, leaving ME to look after him when I was only a child myself! I lost my childhood thanks to you, so I will damn well do whatever I like."" She finally let it rip on her father, all of that pent up anger and frustration toward him. All the while holding Reed's hand to show a united front. ""Besides YOU were the one who funded the operation that changed us. So you cannot blame anyone without taking some of the blame yourself....""<br/><br/>Dr Storm calmed himself then. ""Wow Sue you...remind me so much of your mother now. I forget how wise you've become..."" He glanced everyone in the room. ""You're right. I funded it. It went wrong and here we are. I was not changed, and so - it's up to you all what you decide to do and whom you associate. Just remember...with great power comes great responsibility. And that means even more for you Reed, should you wish to be with my daughter. You had better do right by her, I'll be watching.""<br/><br/>""Yeah, you and half the globe. Think abut it guys, you ain't gonna get no privacy."" Ben reminded both Sue and Reed that their personal lives were also in the limelight. Nothing beats good gossip like a superhero couple. Sue gave Reed a worried look. ""I know...but it's a chance I'm willing to take."" She smiled and squeezed his hand a little. <br/><br/>Reed smiled warmly as Sue's hand grasped his. Even chuckling a little at her ad joke, “Hey I wouldn't mind it if you did one of those ads where you dress all seductively and eat a cheeseburger!” Reed said, clearly kidding.<br/><br/>That though defiantly got Mr. Storm's ire. He stood up and yelled at them which made Reed both frightened but mad. He loved Susan and he knew she didn't need his permission to date him. However before Reed could finish opening his mouth to retort Susan was already on the warpath. Reed's eyes popped open but he clinched her hand a bit harder as he was amazed at her passion, impressed with her boldness, and scared that it'll all be launched at him if he messes up with her. Still she got Mr. Storm to relax a bit. Which helped Reed breathe a bit. “Don't worry, I'd never dream of hurting her Mr. Storm...” Reed stated looking in Sue's eyes.<br/><br/>Ben's words though did help Reed remember what they were talking about as Sue's beautiful blue eyes left him absentminded for a moment. “Uh well right, if we're going to do this we need to figure out names and all that right?” Reed asked aloud shrugging, “Johnny had some codename ideas we could do. I like Human Torch, since it was the original code name for the android project in the 1940's. Sue I think Invisible Woman is perfect for you. Ben... I mean we can come up with something better than Thing if you want.”<br/><br/>Ben waved it off as he sat on the floor. “Don't sweat it, I'm sure I'll be called worse.” Reed didn't like that Ben wasn't super happy with the name by the looks of things. But he knew Ben would have time to change it before things became too complicated. “As for me...”<br/><br/>Reed started thinking about a code name, and the idea of being a superhero in general. Suddenly Reed started to chuckle a little to himself. “You know... okay its nothing but... I remember when I was little. I actually had a superhero alter ego. Like I would use science to solve problems and fight crime.”<br/><br/>Surprisingly Ben chuckled at Reed's memory. “Ya I actually remember you telling me about that. Wasn't the name you had Mr. Fantastic?”<br/><br/>“Hey yeah!” Reed suddenly felt his brain in motion. He strolled over to the white board, and happened to take a blue marker as he started drawing. First making a circle, and in the circle a middle, where the number 4 took up most of its space. “What about, the Fantastic Four?”<br/><br/>Ben grinned. “So we're just going to name the whole team around YOUR name?”<br/><br/>Reed playfully shrugged, “Why not? I'm sure as heck am not going to call myself Elastic Guy. Plus how does that not sound great... OH!” <br/><br/>Suddenly Reed was bolting out of the room, leaving everyone awkwardly looking at one another before coming back with a small folded square of cloth. “If we're going to do this we'll need suits right? Okay check this out. I made it one night after tinkering with some of Sue's cosplay fabrics. I don't really have a name for it so I just call it 'unstable molecules' since that's what I used for its basis. But importantly its super elastic...” Reed stretched his arms out long, tugging the black fabric out all the way with no issues. “Its flame proof, it should work with Sue's powers. This stuff would be perfect!” Placing the fabric on the table Mr. Storm carefully picked it up. “Wow, this stuff is amazing. If you put a patent on this we could make a lot of money from it alone.” Even Reed raised his eyebrows at the realization. “I didn't even think about that.” Reed noted surprised.<br/><br/>Ben smiled a bit glancing around. “Man even I'm getting into this idea!” <br/><br/>Johnny was surprised when Sue went off on their dad. He thought she was, well a good two shoes. Then again, she had the right to yell at their dad. He left them alone, just so he could tend to his research. To be honest, Johnny never had the guts to snap at their dad like that, even though he has wanted too, many, many, MANY, times.<br/><br/>""Whoa..."" Johnny smirked. Then looked at Reed. ""You made this stuff? And they can deal with our power?...Hah, sweet..""<br/><br/>Johnny snapped his fingers, a flame appeared over his thumb. ""I told you the superhero names were cool."" He then snapped his fingers, again and it went away.<br/><br/>Johnny loved this. The four were gonna become superheroes. It was going to be awesome! Even Ben liked the idea! Johnny's hand then sparked in flames.<br/><br/>""WHOA!!"" He forgot that his emotions controlled his powers as well. ""Flame off! Flame off!"" In an instant, his hand was not on fire anymore. Johnny sighed in relief.<br/><br/>""I need to work on my powers...pronto..."" <br/><br/>Sue grimaced a bit watching Johnny's powers not under control, picturing the entire Baxter Building burning as Johnny awkwardly broke the news to everyone with that sheepish grin and shrugged shoulders.  “Yeah... could you please?”  She asked Johnny.<br/><br/>Still though she was mesmerized by her boyfriend's newest work.  Her own mind started churning seeing the logo and the potential with the name.  Suddenly she had an idea.  “Hey, I think I got an idea for the costumes.  Reed can you get me some more of this stuff in black?  I'll also need blue and white.”<br/><br/>Reed smiled as he nodded to Susan.  Seeing everyone's faces lit up at this serious idea and what it would mean for them.  Sure Reed still felt bad about what had happened, and was still going too until Harvey was cured.  This though, this was something special.  He knew it, and he sure as hell was going to make it work.<br/><br/>If for nothing else than for Sue, Ben, and Johnny, if only for them.</div>"

The hospital believes it is so that I can get my affairs in order though it's really so that I can find a cure. With the acceleration of my condition I'm going to have to speed up my plans to compensate, within days I'll likely lose all mobility in my legs and not long after that all motor control will be lost to me. I believe more than ever that the blood of Doctor Banner, A.K.A the Hulk is the key to saving me. While there are other serums that already exist they are near impossible to replicate, with the sample of blood I now possess I feel with certainty that with my expertise I could fashion a cure.<br/><br/>Just think how much good that could come to the world from something so monstrous! Maybe once I have cured myself I can even fashion a cure for Doctor Banner himself. Though one step at a time, first I need to save my own life.</span><br/><br/>Crawford put the recording device back down on the table, walking with his cane over to the makeshift laboratory in his spare room he sat down in the chair on front of the microscope. It was clear that adrenaline was the key to the reaction in bringing out the regenerative abilities of the Hulk, and as such all the nasty side effects. Such as apparent complete loss in cognitive ability and all sense of self. He didn't want the Hulk, he wanted the healing power that came with it. Finding a way to separate the two from one another would prove complicated. Though he was sure he'd manage to do it. After all his very life was on the line.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Bruce had heard the news, the Nuclear Explosion out in the woods. The subsequent S.H.I.E.L.D intervention, apparently the people who had taken the Hulk had then went on to regret the decision. Once and for all. The thought of all that natural beauty having to be abandoned due to radiation tugged at his heart. If only he hadn't been the Hulk he could have worked with the authorities to try and contain the radiation in the area, he was the leading expert after all. He was starting to question if this whole thing had been worth it, yes he had saved a life in the very same accident that had caused him to become the Hulk. Though at what cost? How many more had died, and would continue to die due to that decision? He'd have to end it, and when he ended it he'd have to do it quickly to ensure that there was no way Hulk could fight back against it. He had always wanted to be a force for good in this world, and he had destroyed so much and so many peoples lives.<br/><br/>It had to end, he had to end it.<br/><br/>With a heart heavier than it had ever been in his life he stood up, placing money on the counter of the diner he was in before walking out of the door and to the nearby payphone. The number was burned into his head, how could it not be? He just sighed and waited as the phone rang, silently praying that there wouldn't be an answer. He wanted to just leave a message on the answer phone, he didn't want to put her in this situation. Not by a long shot.<br/><br/>Then he heard the click and cursed himself. ""Hello, Betty Ross speaking."" His words caught in his throat, just hearing her voice, they say the first thing you forget about someone is their voice. Though he knew that wasn't true, it was just as sweet as he remembered it being. ""Hello? Is anyone there?"" He couldn't do it. He couldn't tell her, she wouldn't want to speak to him anyway after what had happened. How could she? <br/><br/>""Hello? I can hear you breathing. Who's there?""<br/><br/>He couldn't say everything he wanted to say, but he could at least say something. He could never make amends for what he had done, he'd be paying for it for the rest of this life and whatever life came next. Clearing his throat he spoke, each word strained as if it had to be forced from his lips. ""I'm sorry Betty-"" A lone tear streaked down round his cheek, dropping to the ground. ""-I'm so, so sorry."" <br/><br/>""Bruce, is that y-"" He let go of the phone, gravity claiming it until the cord pulled tight. He didn't bother to hang it up, he could still hear her pleading into the phone but he couldn't stomach anymore. It was selfish to call her, but he had to do it before he prevented himself from causing anymore catastrophes. He stalked out of the phone booth into the crisp cool air pulling his hood above his head and facing the ground as the tears began to flow.<br/><br/>This was for the best.</div>"

As they moved through the air, Hyperion spoke, continuing to explain to America what was going on. They were heading to the Triskellion, where Hyperion here was meant to test the newfound team. The thought confused America slightly. Honestly she couldn’t see the point of being tested on their teamwork so early. She didn’t even know who the team would even comprise of. Other than Hyperion and Falcon… no Captain America, she couldn’t for the life of her give the names of any other heroes that were on this Earth. Maybe that Hawkeye <span class=""bb-i"">chico</span> that Hyperion spoke of was to be part of the team? She thought on what he had said about the guy. The best marksman in the world? That title was surely Avengers worthy. The guy also seemed to use a bow, so that at least gave him a unique flare. If America hadn’t just watched Kate wield such a weapon to such a high standard, she would have laughed at the idea, but now it didn’t really seem so strange.<br/><br/>Still, this Hawkeye wouldn’t even be attending this little test, so America still had no idea what to expect. She decided not to worry about it, since maybe that was the whole point; to see how she would react to being suddenly thrust in an unknown situation.<br/><br/>Focusing on her flying, America realized that she had been subconsciously increasing it speed, much like Hyperion in front of her. It didn’t take a genius to see that he was testing her. Testing to see how fast she could go. What she was capable of. These guys really took Avenger’s tryouts seriously! Not wishing to show off, she continued to follow suit; gradually increasing her over time. She was surprised to find that the two of them kept getting faster. America had expected him to reach his peak speed sometime around now, but he just kept going. This led to her frowning slightly once a building appeared in the distance. It would seem that they wouldn’t end up finding out who was faster today. Obviously she was going to be the winner though. <br/><br/>The two soon descended outside of the Triskellion, America looking around excitably as they did so. She was keen to see this new team. To catch a single glance at another of this Earth’s heroes. It was during this that she noticed the Quinjets that had been following them touching down a few metres away. Out from the back came all of the agents that had entered the penthouse; with both Quentin and Kate taking up the rear. While Kate was still too teary eyed to notice her, the mutant telepath could her eye. He gave her a crafty wink, before miming himself getting hanged with a noose. Obviously Quentin’s views on S.H.I.E.L.D. hadn’t changed.<br/><br/>Turning her attention away from her new friends, America found herself having to quickly catch up with Hyperion who had swiftly made his way through the front entrance. They passed a towering statue as they did so. Captain America. The original one anyway. It would seem that he had existed on this Earth after all. Shame they never found him. Maybe they hadn’t ended up searching…<br/><br/>Again, America realized that she would need to stay close to Hyperion due to the labyrinth of corridors that lay ahead of them. She tried to follow swift, staring intently at every agent that passed as she did so. Before long, the duo arrived at a set of doors. This was it. The caped hero moved towards a keypad, typing in a series of numbers, while America waited beside him, shifting impatiently on her feet. She tried to remain calm, however inside she was a sack of nerves. This was the big league. As tough as she knew that she was, most of the guys inside this room would probably be tougher. More powerful. Superheroes. <br/><br/>As the door slid open, she took a deep breath. She stepped inside. In front of her was her new team. She frowned. This hadn’t been what she had expected. Before she could express her opinion however, Hyperion spoke from behind her, announcing that it was time to begin. At once the room was illuminated by a bright red light, as two beams of energy shot from the man’s eyes. What’s more, they were heading directly for her.

He had signed himself up with an organization that was at least semi aligned with his intentions, he had made a pretty solid friendship with Tony Stark and he had encountered Thor and the two of them weren't trying to kill each other; In fact, they were on somewhat friendly, if uneasy terms.<br/><br/>That good mood had vanished the moment he had teleported himself into the office of one General Ross. The man had been out at the time, but he would come back sooner or later... Either way, it was long enough to disable or remove the various methods that the man could use to call for help or even alert those around him that something was possibly wrong. Taking a seat in the chair in front of the General's desk, Loki faded from normal view and merely decided to wait. <br/><br/>Gamma Base, the name was appropriate. They had almost as many high tech gizmos than S.H.I.E.L.D. All of it firmly in the hands of the US-Military not some coalition of powers from across the world. Ross was a patriot unlike Fury, his country came first and foremost. S.H.I.E.L.D would be powerless if nation turned against nation, they'd rather watch America burn than intervene because their precious council would probably advise against it. Right now though, all his forces were pointed in one direction in particular. The Hulk.<br/><br/>The biggest threat to the United States and her interests, he wasn't about to let it get away. Not to mention if he could find out how to replicate it he'd have control of the strongest weapon to ever exist. That was something he was very interested in, see what Fury could do about that with his little fleet of heli-carriers. Having just dispatched a recon unit to a hospital where a Doctor Crawford was claiming to have seen Banner (Only for Banner to have escaped) he returned to his office to let the Pentagon know that despite S.H.I.E.L.Ds attempts to keep him from his target he was closing in.<br/><br/>Walking round behind his desk he lifted his phone, hitting three on speed-dial to take him straight to the Secretary of Defense. <br/><br/>The phone wasn't going to be dialing out to anyone.<br/><br/>As Loki faded into existence, the look on his face was cold and hard as his eyes seemed like they would be able to pierce the flesh and gaze right into a man's soul. With a tone of voice that screamed cold hearted professionalism, Loki merely muttered ""Hello Mr Ross. I think it is time for us to have a bit of a chat."" <br/><br/>Phone was dead. Then as the face appeared that pretty much indicated why, it also meant that any of the other forms of communication in the room already would likely be blocked. Still, he had his own panic button on him and he was armed. Though he had to give it to this Loki character. He had a pair on him.<br/><br/>""Actually it's General, I've worked hard for that title so it's going to get used. Now I'm a busy man so why don't you get to the point?""<br/><br/>Loki shrugged a little at the statement that Ross made. Where others might have been impressed by the bravado that the man possessed, Loki merely found it... tiresome. ""You mean you still have that title? Considering how you screwed up what happened at the New York docks I'm surprised you've still got an office with your name on the door.""<br/><br/>Placing his hands together under his chin with his index fingers pressed together to make a 'diamond' shape, Loki got to the point. ""I wish to discuss Bruce Banner with you General and I want you to hear me out before you say anything."" Taking a moment to make sure that his message was received, Loki got started. <br/><br/>""I want you to stop hunting Bruce. Instead, I want you to work with shield in order to set up a lab somewhere on US soil that is far away from anything else so that we can house him there and let him have run of the place. He gets to work on his own on whatever projects happen to take his fancy... in return, you'll have access to the results of anything he discovers or makes, as well as knowing exactly where he is and not having to worry about the Hulk randomly appearing somewhere. Would this be acceptable to you?""<br/><br/>Ross just laughed as he leaned back in his chair. ""The only place he's going is a jail cell below the Earth with walls so thick air won't get in if we don't want it too. That's where he's going, not to some cushy lab. He's destroyed millions of dollars in property, killed good men and on a personal note-"" Ross leaned in closing the distance between the two of them. ""-He's hurt the person who I care about the most."" He leaned back in his seat.<br/><br/>""So no he won't be getting a lab, he'll be getting a prison sentence. If you're here to try and force me out of it then I'm afraid you're going to have a tough time living on this planet too, cause I'm sure as hell not going to take orders from an alien. Mine come from the Pentagon and the White house, nowhere else."" Ross shrugged in his seat. ""Those are the only conditions you're getting, though I am curious. What's your stake in all of this? Why do you care what happens to the beast?""<br/><br/>Loki's face showed absolutely no amusement what-so-ever at the response that Ross gave his very reasonable request. Those who were more magically aware might have noticed a slight shift in the world, through it was highly doubtful that Ross was one such person. Leaning back in his chair to make himself somewhat more at home, Loki tilted his head to the side a little as he gave the General his full attention. ""You know, when I originally made the decision to attempt reasoning with you, I strongly suspected that I would be wasting my time. After all, the kind of military man who willingly ordered his men into a populated city armed to kill humans to engage someone that was trying to vacate the city with a minimum of fuss with weapons that wouldn't do anything more then provoke him to defend himself isn't going to let such little things like logic or reason get in the way of his petty, personal crusade, now is he?""<br/><br/>Turning his attention away from Ross and raising his left hand, Loki turned it this way and that in the classic 'I've got nothing in my hand' manner of magicians. ""Ross, you're far to close to the situation to make professional judgements and your actions have gotten people needlessly killed. You are so blinded by your rage and pride that you're refusing to acknowledge that there are other solutions to the situation. Consider this a chance to do the honorable thing that is best for yourself, those under your command and those that you care about and step back from the situation and let someone else take over your duties in relation to Banner.""   <br/><br/>Ross just chuckled. ""We went in with non-lethals, we kept civilians out of the line of fire. It wasn't my men that caused all that devastation, it waas some of you so called heroes. I hear one of them is currently in hiding after nearly killing Tony Stark. Tell me, who has the moral high ground now?""<br/><br/>Ross was visibly growing fed up of this, he had other things to attend to without his morals and reasons being questioned by someone that wasn't even from this planet. ""This conversations now over, unless you have anything of use to tell me such as the Hulks whereabouts or want to do the right thing and use those magic powers of yours to teleport him right into a cell."" Just then there was a knock on the door as a private poked his head in.<br/><br/>""General, it's Banner. He's contacted your daughter, we've got a rough location.""<br/><br/>Ross just smirked and looked at Loki. ""Get the Hulkbuster units ready, unless our friend here decideds to make that unnecessary.""<br/><br/>Loki's expression was neutral as he turned to look at the private that had poked his head through the door. Loki's hand twitched a little as a little bit of magic was used to ensure that the Private wouldn't recall General Ross speaking to anyone but thin air. He certainly wouldn't recall Loki answering ""Well Mr Ross, it would seem that my attempt to do things the hard way has failed. Goodbye General.""<br/><br/>With nothing else to say, Loki disappeared; Most likely teleported but could anyone truly be sure?<br/><br/>Something under the General's desk moved on feet designed to move softly, but for now it seemed content to wait.</div>"

He was happy for the four of them, as he did genuinely think that it was going to be a big success.  Plus he made sure to point Reed to the direction of his personal lawyers to get the patent rolling for his 'unstable molecules'.  Even through a video call Tony was very impressed with the substance.  It got his mind working towards the next Iron Man suit.  Even if he wasn't completely sold on the idea yet, talking about being a superhero did get him a little back on board with the concept of giving things another try.<br/><br/>Thor hadn't found himself in New York City in quite some time, not since the Great Depression if memory served him right.  It was amazing to see the changes made to the city since then.  Midgardians were moving at a pace that could only be thought of as both impressive and somewhat worrying.  Still his mind was far from that, as he glanced up at the Stark Tech building.  Standing across the street from it as he stared up at the top, where he could feel a presence that was familiar but very comforting to feel.  It's been a long time since his had Mjolnir in his grasp, and right now it was going to be his key to the dream he had for a long long time.<br/><br/>Strolling towards the building and across the street Thor thought back to the amount of times he had to walk amongst people pretending to be no one.  The former prince of Asgard had to make due with not being special.  Not actually being the God of thunder he was.  He had to run, hide, and be ordinary when he shouldn't have to be.  Now though, he had a chance to finally be himself again.  Subtly was never his strongest suit, and as far as he was concerned it was time to be Thor again.<br/><br/>“Uh hello?”  Thor awkwardly approached the front desk, the security guard having not seen him yet.  “I was uh, looking to speak to Mr. Stark if that's at all possible.  He has something that is mine.”  The security guard start to pull down his newspaper to look at Thor.  “Uh sir unless you have an appointment with Mr. Stark I just can't......”  He glanced at, then up at Thor who tried to give him a polite smile.  “You uh... what were you looking for?”  The security guard asked suddenly quite scared.<br/><br/>“Uh, its call Mjolnir?  Large hammer, Tarene had it eariler today?”<br/><br/>That was all the security guard needed to start pounding on the silent alarm button.  With a large swarm of guards suddenly circling Thor as he looked around confused.  “Was it... something I said?”  Thor asked.<br/><br/>Eventually a phone call to Loki later Tony Stark came down to the main floor where Thor was being grilled on what he was doing there.  “Relax guys, its alright.”  Tony told the guards who all finally started to back away.  “Thank you, I assume you're Mr. Stark?  Loki was telling me about you, Thor Odinson.”  Thor offered a hand to shake which Tony took.  Only Thor's hand easily clasped over Tony's and the grip could only be described as a vice grip on steroids.  Causing Tony to yell in pain, pulling his hand away and shake it.  The guards put their guns back up at Thor before Tony waved them off.  “Chill guys chill.  Jesus I hired trigger happy nutcases for security...”  Tony sighed before directing Thor to his elevator.<br/><br/>“Sorry about earlier, Tarene's little visit still has everyone rattled.”  Tony mentioned as they both were in the elevator, and Tony was left to realize that Thor was a giant of a man.  How him and Loki were related was well beyond him.<br/><br/>“I do apologize for her actions.  I knew her quite well, and while she had a temper I couldn't imagine she'd be capable of such cruelty.”  Thor mentioned awkwardly scratching the back of his head and looking away.  “She was much nicer when I knew her, but that was eons ago unfortunately.”<br/><br/>“Eh don't worry about it, nothing a little healing magic couldn't fix.”  Tony noted as they arrived at the top floor.<br/><br/>Thor quietly had his attention completely taken away as he stepped out of the elevator slowly.  Fixated on the hammer that still stood at the center of the reception area.  “Did anyone try to claim it?”  Was the first thing Thor could think to say.<br/><br/>“Not as far as I know...”  Tony remarked thinking about it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">”No seriously James just pull on me and I'll try to pick it up!”<br/><br/>“GghhHhhhhhaaaaaaa!”<br/><br/>“Why won't this stupid thing lift?!”<br/><br/>“Just pull harder Pepper!”</span><br/><br/>“Hmm... Thor paused, finally and calmly he held out a hand.  “Mjolnir, come to me.”  He called.  At first nothing happened, the hammer remained where it was, and Tony was left wondering if Loki maybe got the wrong guy or something.  Thor himself began to have a moment of worry.  Had it been too long?  Were his past guilt enough to make him no longer worthy?  A small bead of sweat slid down Thor's forehead as he continued to hold his hand out for the mythical hammer.<br/><br/>Finally though, the hammer moved, slowly and almost unnoticeable at first.  But soon Mjolnir seemingly lifted up into the air, and with sudden force flew right into Thor's grasp.  Who finally left out an exhale as he glanced around, awkwardly chuckling.  Though soon he felt the wonderful warmth of power start to course through his veins again.  Smiling Thor calmly started to go out to the helipad.  Tony having to follow in confusion.<br/><br/>As Thor arrived outside he glanced up to the heavens.  He held his hands out, Mjolnir staying put in his firmly gripped right hand.  The skies above him darkened ever so much.  Rumbling of power as Thor opened his eyes and suddenly a giant bolt of lightning struck down on him with enough force to knock Tony off his feet.  As the thunder clapped loudly, Thor was still standing, and now clad in the gear only befitting Asgard's greatest warrior.  He turned back to Tony who was just getting up, his ears ringing and the shocked look on his face not subsiding yet.  “Thank you Mr. Stark.”  Thor said nodding to Tony.  “Now if you excuse me, I have a lot of catching up to do.”  With that Thor let the toughened leather strap of Mjolnir spin in his wrist, finally with an almost effortless looking swing Thor took off like a rocket into the sky.<br/><br/>Tony looked on in a daze before quietly going over to his desk.  “Could you get my limo ready at the private garage?  Yeah just... fuck today I'm going home.”</div>"

Other than the fact that he continued to wear his dark sunglasses into the house of God, the man did not look that much out of place.  He wore a pair of khaki pants along with blue dress shirt and a sports jacket of a darker hue of blue.  The mysterious man took a seat in one of the rear pews, so that he would not attract any unwanted attention.<br/><br/>	In just the last couple weeks, there were reports that the pastor from this church had been performing miracles that would have rivaled those that accounted in the Bible.  One man claimed that the pastor had somehow restored his ability to walk.  A woman, who came to this chapel, left cured of her breast cancer.  Another man, elderly in age, even discovered that the pains of his arthritis had disappeared.  However, there was something fishy about all these incidents.  Even with people like the Valkyrie being around, things like <span class=""bb-b"">this</span> do not occur on a daily basis.<br/><br/>	The man waited in the chapel as the pastor run through the usual Wednesday service until she asked anyone who was suffering some kind of illness or condition to come up to be healed.  Before the man stood up from his pew, he looked down at his watch, or at least what appeared to be a watch, and saw that it had a green ring around the glass.  Although he was unable to reach the pastor first, the man was able to acquire the second spot in line.  When it was his turn for his chance at being healed, the pastor asked what illness or condition troubled him and reassured him that the love of God will free him of that pain.<br/><br/>	“Your existence.”  The man bluntly said after he glanced down again at his watch, which now had a red ring instead of the green one.  The entire chapel immediately became silent.  You could have heard a pen drop in that room.  All the parishioners, along with the pastor, were astonished at what the man said, not knowing what he meant by that.<br/><br/>	“Excuse me?”  The pastor asked the blond-haired man after she took a step back from him.<br/><br/>	“I am truly sorry about what I must do, but I am sure that your loved ones would rather remember you as how you are instead of what you would have become”.<br/><br/>	Before anyone else in the room could do anything, the mysterious man held up his hand towards the pastor, as if he was holding a non-existent gun.  However, suddenly the man’s watch morphed into what appeared to been some kind of futuristic, or extraterrestrial, firearm.  Gripping the weapon, the man shot a green orb through the torso of the pastor, burning a circular hole in her body where the wound would have been.<br/><br/>	Once the others in the room realized what had happened, they all started to dash towards the door.  However, they discovered the doors were locked, even though the switch that locked the doors was not turned.<br/><br/>	“Don’t be alarmed, everyone.”  The man in the blue suit declared calmly, especially for having killed someone just a few seconds ago.  “My name is Walter Lawson, an agent of the Sentient World Observation and Response Department, or S.W.O.R.D. for short.  I will be scanning all of you today for any Brood infections and eliminating these risks.  Fortunately, you all will not remember a single moment of this encounter.”<br/><br/>	Agent Lawson pulled a small device from a pocket on the inside of his dark blue sports coat.  It appeared like a nice quality pen or some other type of metallic, thin cylinder.  He held out the device and pressed the only button on it.  A bright flash was generated from the device.  Once the light had disappeared, all the people in the chapel, except for Agent Lawson, had a blank expression on each of their faces.  Now that everyone was ‘cooperating’, the agent of S.W.O.R.D. went about his business.</div>"

Though with recent holotech advancements you probably wouldn’t have noticed it being a simulation room when you walked in. Of course, Hank didn’t know that because he was there (because he wasn’t), he knew that because Agent Carter had given him the heads up. Much less abrasive than Agent Laskov… but not as commanding. For some reason he had a sort of preference for “bossy”.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">Well, this is the Ant-Man.</font>” Hank stated as he steadied the helmet he had placed on his head as the facemask portion dropped into place. “<font color=""#c24641"">It’s kind of a big deal.</font>”<br/><br/>Agent Carter nodded. “It certainly looks like a powered suit.”<br/><br/>Hank sighed, “<font color=""#c24641"">You know, you could be a little more fun.</font>”<br/><br/>“Not really in my job description, Pym.”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">That’s a shame. If you let loose a little I imagine you’d be a lot more fun at parties. Ah, who am I kidding you don’t go to parties. What with this career military vibe you’re giving off. Bet you had family in the organization and if not SHIELD, probably something like it. SWORD? CIA? FBI? The New York Knicks? Dominos?</font>”<br/><br/>Carter let out a giggle, cracking from Hank’s nonsense for a minute.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">There it is. Anyway—</font>” Hank took a step forward as they continued walking now that Hank had ‘suited’ up, “<font color=""#c24641"">—is Cap going to meet us at the door or what?</font>”<br/><br/>“He’s observing. From what I hear the session has already started, so you’ll be going in as a surprise. That doesn’t matter. Cap thinks it simulates the field appropriately. You’ll be dealing with… well, good luck.”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">I guess I don’t get any additional information… darn. Thanks, though.</font>”<br/><br/>Hank actually remained quiet for the rest of the walk to the exterior of the room, contemplating in the silence what the best route to go was with. Given he didn’t know <span class=""bb-i"">who</span> he was up against he wasn’t sure how to prepare for the simulation rounds. However, by the sound of Carter’s previous comment he expected something ‘big’ and he started making calculations after remember what Cap had said about the prospective line-up. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“We have one possible god, one god, one being who is essentially a god, a super soldier, a girl who can travel between dimensions and take a hell of a punch and we have a tech advisor who's a billionaire and pisses me off.”</span><br/><br/>Hank frowned quizzically underneath the faceplate of his helmet. This probably meant he was either facing a <span class=""bb-i"">possible</span> god, a god, or someone who was god by a different name. There were a few names that popped up due to Hank’s keeping up with the ‘kardashians’ so to speak. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">So, you’re sending me in against a god. I’m just a guy in a suit.</font>”<br/><br/>“I’ll tell Captain America ab—”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#c24641"">—this is going to be a fun challenge.</font>”<br/><br/>“I see. Good luck.” Agent Carter took a step back as she looked at the door that led into the simulation room. As the door opened Hank could feel an intensity. The funnest part of this was that he had did some tweaks on the Ant-Man suit just the other day as crime-fighting had gotten a bit more… dull. He had started to incorporate some designs his father never got around to and he was all about testing them out. It also poised a classic question to Hank.<br/><br/>Who is stronger? An Ant or a <span class=""bb-i"">god?</span><br/><br/>The doors swung open.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“<font color=""#c24641"">I guess you can call me tru<span class=""bb-i"">ant</span> for this shindig.</font>”</span> Hank nearly laughed at his own pun as he held his hand over his wrist.</div></div>"

Hell, she had even been informed that it would happen seconds before entering the room. However she had at least expected to have had some time for some sort of meet and greet with her new comrades. Maybe just a few introductions, handshakes, that sort of thing. Instead she had found herself tumbling into the floor after having her stomach blasted by Hyperion’s <span class=""bb-i"">cyclops-beams</span>. Luckily the hit hadn’t been too damaging as America managed to lift herself from the crater she had created with ease. Glancing downwards however, she saw that he t-shirt hadn’t been all too lucky, with a scorch mark covering the lower half of it.<br/><br/>“That was my favourite shirt, <span class=""bb-i"">chico</span>” she grimaced cracking her knuckles in the classic superhero manner.  <br/><br/>Despite wanting to dive straight in however, America hesitated. She thought back to the other day during her encounter with the Hulk. Then she had engaged without thinking, and she knew full well where that had gotten her. Sure this situation was slightly different; as far as she was aware, Hyperion wasn't going to get angrier and stronger the more he was hit, but still America knew she must be careful. No, this time she had to fight smart. She had to come up with some sort of plan. But what?<br/><br/>Then, as if by some divine power, her question was answered. The door to the simulation room slid open with a hiss to the group's left, causing all eyes in the room to turn towards it, as another of the team's new members made his appearance.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“<font color=""#c24641"">I guess you can call me tru<span class=""bb-i"">ant</span> for this shindig.</font>”</span><br/><br/>The heroes attempt at a joke caused America to stop in her tracks for a second. Honestly looking at this guy, she had no idea who he was. She took note of the red and black costume, as well as the mechanical looking costume upon his head. Due to the oddly specific pun he had made, America could only assume that the guy's abilities were insect related. However that didn't really matter now, as regardless of his abilities, he had already made an astonishing distraction. <br/><br/>America burst forward through the air, rocketing towards Hyperion, swinging her fist wildly towards him as she did so. All she could hope was that his attention was on the new arrival, as if not, this could prove to be highly embarrassing! <br/></div>"

He stopped in his tracks as he went into a small diner, sitting at the far away corner. He had to double take as, for a moment, he thought he saw Hulk instead of his own reflection in the mirror. Shaking his head he marked it down as fatigue. <span class=""bb-i"">""... in other news the mysterious four individuals who were seen in action in Las Vegas have finally been identified.

That boy was a prodigy. While he himself was the foremost expert in the field of well, anything to do with radiation, another set of eyes on the problem wouldn't be the biggest hindrance in the world after all. Before he had been going to Osborne, in the hopes that he'd find a way to care Banner and would be less likely to aggravate him than Tony Stark... also prior to the companies change in focus he would have been the least likely to try and sell the Hulk as a weapon. At least Tony had a one up on him in that department now. The real question was how was he going to get to New York? The easiest way to get past the authorities was probably to find a way to let the Hulk out. Though there was no telling how much destruction that would cause <span class=""bb-i"">or</span> where he would even end up. If only he had a way to contact that Loki guy. He could teleport that would get him into New York no problems.<br/><br/>Though it wasn't as if a God carried a technological means of communication...<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://project-nerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Captain-America-Shield-Banner.jpg""/></div><br/><br/>Looking at the fight begin Sam nodded to himself. This would be a good pacing for the team. He had to admit he wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">entirely</span> happy with how Fury had went over his head.

Agent Parr- <span class=""bb-i"">Valkyrie</span>. He reminded himself counted as a earthling, as did Hank Pym. Tony Stark wasn't really a member of the team yet, just a consultant. Hopefully to remain that way and he was from Earth. That left one multiverse traveling person, one super powered being who was essentially a God saved as his reality was destroyed (Or something like that) and one actual god from Norse Legend.<br/><br/>Which reminded him. Pulling out a communicator card, the team had all been given one. Gave an ID and any important information, clearance to related areas of S.H.I.E.L.D and acted as communicators over vast distances. He pressed the button to activate his. When prompted he spoke the name of the being he wanted to speak to and waited for them to answer. When the Gods face appeared on the screen Sam spoke. ""Loki, where are you? Trainings already started. I heard what you want to do for Banner, but first you have to be a member of the team. That means taking part in training. I expect to see a poof of green smoke, or however it is you teleport, any minute now. Wilson, out.""</div>"

Sure as hell I do!</font>”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">I still think it’s in bad taste</font>” Fred Myers mumbled.<br/><br/>His eyes moved away from the custom-decorated Spider-Man cake in his teammate’s hands and up towards Riker’s main entrance. He wasn’t keen to be back here, having only been out for a month or two, although luckily this time it was only to collect someone; Herman Schultz, the notorious Shocker, as well as Fred’s former cellmate. The two had bonded during their time together, with the two having similar stories to tell as to how they ended up there, both of which involved Spider-Man.  Yes, that’s right; Fred was a supervillain too. He was The Boomerang.<br/><br/>It was through Herman that Fred was introduced to the two gentlemen who were currently stood beside him. Morris Bench was Hydro-Man, a stupid name for a guy with a stupid power. The guy was essentially made of water, which in itself doesn’t sound too impressive. Apparently he had fallen in the ocean while a powerful experimental generator was being lowered into the ocean for testing. That origin story was nearly as unimpressive as his abilities. It was almost as stupidly convenient as suggesting that Spider-Man gained his powers after being bit by some radioactive spider. As if! <br/><br/>The jittery guy with the Spider-Man cake was James Sanders, and no, zero relation to the Colonel.  This guy had superhuman speed. Calls himself Speed Demon. Pretty menacing name for a guy who spent most of his time foolishly stumbling around after women. Despite James’ annoyance, Fred still found him useful. With legs like that, he was a key asset to any robbery. Still, it still didn’t stop Fred from wanting to punch him one. <br/><br/>Fred had been rubbing his temple in frustration while Morris and James argued next to him about the best flavour of cake when the door opened in front of them. The three all looked up in unison to find Herman, a scowl covering his face. That wasn’t the only thing however. Scars covered most of his left cheek, with a few others around his lip. This was nothing new to Fred, who had seen most of them before he had gotten out, although they came as a huge surprise to both James and Morris.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#ed1c24"">Dude… What the fuck happened to your face, man?</font>” James asked walking forward, still brandishing the Spider-Man cake in front of him.<br/><br/>The scowl on Herman’s face grew even worse as he laid eyes on the cake. Fred watched as the man took in a deep breath, evidently attempting to calm himself down. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">That Spider-Prick, Okay James?</font>” Herman declared loudly, suddenly letting go of his self-restraint. “<font color=""#a36209"">That fucking Spider-Prick!</font>”<br/><br/>Herman lashed out, slamming his hand down onto the cake, knocking it out of James' hands. It splattered onto the floor into a pile of red and black. All Fred could do was stand there and laugh as James began to cry out in annoyance, while Herman in response began stamping on the cake's remains. He had forgotten how huge Herman's vendetta against Spider-Man. Sure he knew it was there; the hero had savagely attacked him a few months ago so he had a good reason to be peeved. But this rage was something else. Fred liked it. <br/><br/>Before anyone could do anything to calm the man down, Fred stepped forward, pushing past James and his cake and heading towards his newly-freed friend. Putting an arm around his shoulder, he shot Herman a smile.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Use that anger, Herman. Embrace it!</font>” He instructed with a charistmatic cheer. “<font color=""#a187be"">Because you’re going to need it!</font>”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a36209"">Wha…what the hell are you talking about?</font>” Herman spluttered, his rage now completely gone.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Herman, my old friend. We’re going to rob the Owl!</font>”</div>"

He had just passed the Ferris wheel at Coney Island when Piledriver came down out of nowhere. Louis didn't think about flying lower making him more vulnerable. The heavy handed villain went through a couple of food stands as the mutant hero skipped on the ground after making impact. Northstar landed in the sand on the beach just a few feet from the now busted up boardwalk. There was that ocean water again. There wasn't nearly as many people out now as there were in the beginning of the summer, but there were still dozens around trying to avoid danger while others tried getting pics or video on their smart phones. <br/><br/>""Get your game face on..."" he thought picking himself up, vibrating the molecules on the outside of his face to hide his identity. <br/><br/>The speed didn't matter right now. The light emitting from his eyes when he stood to his feet and then floated above the sand was blinding enough. Even the whiter parts of his costume had more of a brightness to them. Piledriver came crashing through along with Bulldozer while Wrecker went for more of a grand final entrance with a slower pace. Gripping his crowbar he started to give the order, but Bulldozer had more of a personal ax to grind after Northstar took him down several weeks earlier and charged ahead.<br/><br/>""Damnit Dozer!"" Wrecker screamed but already knew what was coming, ""COVER YOUR EY-- AAAAAAARGH!!""<br/><br/>Louis put his right had forward and used a blinding flash to do just that. The thuggish villains wouldn't regain their sight for at least an hour or two even powered by an enchanted crowbar. The proper authorities showed sometime after and Northstar helped restrain the bulky criminals. This light power definitely had it's advantages. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">12:36 pm...</span></span><br/><br/>Northstar flew back home in another flash of light and changed clothes and walked down at a normal speed to the lobby to check his mail. key in hand he approached the boxes and Tabitha could see him from outside by the pool.  She ran in with her flipflops on and a towel around her waist. <br/><br/>""Really... I've heard of lame villains ACTUALLY existing in the real world, but a group of guys powered by an enchanted crowbar is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. At least Bulldozer has that kinda Juggernaut look going for him. After I take this mail back upstairs I'm gonna go grab a bagel and..."" Louis thought while unlocking his mailbox to find a check he'd been waiting for, ""Helloooo gorgeous.."" he said grinning to the check and turning around to find Tabitha with her towel and bikini.<br/><br/>""Oh.. hey!"" Louis said in surprise.<br/><br/>""I heard you calling a girl gorgeous, it's okay."" she said in her southern accent smiling back as she could tell he was a little embarrassed, ""I just got invited to a party down at O'Malley's Pub and they said bring a +1. You doing anything later?""<br/><br/>""They probably want the +1 to be another pretty girl."" Louis commented stepping out of the mail room.<br/><br/>""All the girls I know up here're bitches. Besides'... I haven't seen you drunk yet... pleeeease Louis."" she asked batting her eyelashes after taking off her big sunglasses.<br/><br/>""I'll go, but just so you don't get thrown out of a bar."" Louis said with a sigh walking towards the stairs.<br/><br/>""You mean <span class=""bb-i"">another</span> bar ha HA!"" she laughed walking back to the pool entrance door.<br/><br/>__________<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">2:11 pm...</span></span><br/><br/>On the armored superhuman criminal transport vehicle the 'Crew were in restrains and all cursing at the floor.

You remember those glasses, Calusky?"" Wrecker asked.<br/><br/>""Yeah, I would've liked to hung around Brooklyn a bit longer. Now it's back to Rikers.

The ball and chain will go into the arsenal."" a Skrull scientist proclaimed nodding to a nearby soldier.<br/><br/>""Take him back into the cage with the others. It's about time to give them their weekly protein.

This spectacle took Peter by surprise, since he thought that someone of Quicksilver’s talents could easily dodge an attack like that.  Peter could even tell from where he was clinging to the wall that this doppelganger probably did not have the physical talent that Peter had, or rather was given by that fateful spider- bite.<br/><br/>	“What’s the matter, Speedy?”  Peter called down to Quicksilver, who was not being swarmed by the guards, “Are you just going to let them do that to you?  And I was under the impression that you were the fastest man alive.”<br/><br/>	As Peter struggled at keeping the cages from moving, he turned his attention up towards Cyclops.  “A little help here, Cyke?  Can’t you just blast the cables and call it a day?”<br/><br/>	“They’re too high up.  We can’t risk the danger from a fall from that height.  However, I do have an idea.  Quicksilver, you might want to get off the ground right about now.  And Iceman, I will need a little assist here.”<br/><br/>	Even though he did not need to use the switch on his visor since he had a trigger attached to his gloves, Cyclops sent a ruby-colored blast the bottom of the giant, glass vat that contained the liquid that Herbert Landon had formulated to destroy humans with the x-gene.  Normally, such an action would have flooded the floor below with the liquid, which would have proved to be quite dangerous to mutant and human alike.  However, a green colored slush poured out instead as a result of Iceman’s mutant abilities.  While this lethal ‘snow’ would eventually melt, at least at the moment it would still remain together instead of flooding the room.<br/><br/>	Now that Firestar and Nightcrawler were no longer in endangered from that liquid, Cyclops waited until the pulleys had lowered their cages down to a height where the fall would not endanger his teammates.  Once the cages were at that point, Cyclops unleashed a second and third optic blast that severed the steel ropes that held the cages suspended above the ground.  <br/><br/>	Once the cages had landed in the now empty vat, Peter immediately leapt from the wall and dashed towards the giant, glass cylinder.  After climbing up the glass walls, he jumped onto the top of one of the cages, now no longer electrified. Then, from the top of the cage, Peter began to pull apart two of the bars so that the occupant of the cage could slip through them.  Once he had rescued Nightcrawler and set him down beside Iceman outside of the vat, Peter returned for Angelica.<br/><br/>	“I knew you would come for us.”  Angelica smiled at her best friend while he carried her out of the cage in his arms.<br/><br/>	“Hey, if I didn’t come, wouldn’t that make me a lousy friend?”  Peter then leapt out of the glass cylinder and landed where the two other X-Men were standing.  When they landed, Peter almost tried to pull off the shackles and the collar that had been placed on Kurt and Angelica’s wrists and necks, but he was dissuaded from taking that course of action, thinking that he did not know whether these devices were armed to explode if forcefully removed.<br/><br/>	“Quicksilver, you didn’t happen to swipe a key from one of the guards, did you?”</div>"

Simply letting a growl of frustration out as he got up, letting out a cough that left green and red on the ground.  “Fucking dammit...”  Was all he could let out in a meek tone, as his throat felt like it got stomped on by a herd of elephants.  Little smart ass web boy was going to get his when he didn’t suspect it.<br/><br/>Still it was good to see the mission was looking pretty good so far.  Both Angelica and Kurt were out of the cages and the goopy substance was for the moment nothing but harmless snow.  When Cyclops asked him about a key Quicksilver patted his pockets not recalling one.  “Hmm hold on...”  He let out in a raspy tone, his throat still sore from the surprise.  Darting around the room Quicksilver checked each of the guards one by one until he finally got to Herbert Landon, who not only had the key but suddenly had his pants fall to the ground.  Quicksilver just couldn’t resist, after all how many mutants can say they panted an anti-mutant piece of shit?<br/><br/>“Here...”  Quicksilver coughed as he casually tossed the key over to Spider-Man to let him do the honors.  As he himself was still coughing up a storm and little bits of blood.  Hopefully Jean wasn’t going to make working a little longer tonight... or isn’t still pissed about his actions in Boston.</div>"

Susan had years of cosplay costume design under her belt but even Reed didn't realize just how awesome the suits were going to look. It admittedly left him almost drunk with excitement! The suits, the press conference later today, everything that they had worked on for the last two weeks was becoming something now. It was hard for even Reed to get swept up in the commotion. Even though in the two weeks he hasn't quite figured out how to get Harvey back to normal. He did feel like he had a good idea where to go with it. Just a matter of the details as was usually the case with difficult science.<br/><br/>The biggest thing in the two weeks though hasn't even really been the creation of the Fantastic Four. Since everyone agreed the Baxter Building should become the home base of operations Reed and Ben both had to move in. Reed had to put some work into it but he was able to talk Susan's dad into being able to move into Susan's room with her. He still isn't quite sure how he did it, unless Susan just gave him another harsh speaking too like she did before.<br/><br/>As Reed was all grins he stepped out of the bathroom and back into their bedroom, doing a pose he was sure was suppose to look sexy. All the while doing the little bit of will it took to make his butt grow out a decent bit bigger. Reed had naturally been very proactive in practicing with his powers even down to figuring out how to do stupid silly little things like making his own rear end large. Still, it was all good practice, and there was something weirdly fun about becoming some kind of human cartoon character.<br/><br/>""Hey Susan, does this make my butt look big?"" Reed jokingly asked trying to sound what he thought sexy sounded like. It was not very sexy.<br/><br/>Sue waited on the bed impatiently, she couldn't wait to see him in the new suit she'd made for him. She giggled at the sight as he asked her the ridiculous question. She covered her mouth, trying hard to fight back harder laughter. ""N-not at all dear!"" She joked like a mid sixties house wife, putting on a British accent with it.<br/><br/>""In all seriousness. No, it looks great.  Just put your... butt back in!"" She chuckled. ""My turn!"" She hopped up and grabbed her suit that hung from her closet door. She was still a little shy dressing in front of her now boyfriend. She hoped their new found romance would not ruin their long term friendship.<br/><br/>But as she undressed in the bathroom with the door slightly ajar, she turned back to see that Reed was peeking.<br/><br/>""Hey.  No peeking..."" She playfully smirked and faded her uncovered body.<br/><br/>Reed giggled and let his butt deflate back to normal as he let Susan put her suit on. Again it even surprised Reed a bit that everything has caused him to loosen up so to speak. It could be contributed to the powers, the feeling of all these exciting new things happening. Normally Reed would be too tepid, maybe intimidated to make a silly joke about having a big inflated butt. Of course being around Susan was a plus as well.<br/><br/>As Reed took a seat on their bed and waited on Susan to get her costume on. Peering over to the bathroom she realized the door was opened just a bit. Peeking over he quickly got the light scolding from Sue. Which made Reed cheekily grin and shrug almost like he was channeling Johnny's reaction to getting caught doing something bad.<br/><br/>Instead Reed just continued to sit upright on the side of the bed. It was at that moment he started thinking about THAT topic with his relationship. Him and Susan had never been closer but they well... They haven't done 'that' yet. Reed wasn't against it, far from it. He was concerned about when Susan would feel comfortable with it. More so however he was thinking about the possibilities of what would happen if they conceived. Would their kid have powers like them? Would they even be able to have kids? As much as Reed had been working overtime on learning everyone's powers to a very high degree. He still didn't know that much about them, and that frustrate him slightly.<br/><br/>Sue emerged from the bathroom with arms open. ""Well?"" She gave him a little twirl, the suit clung to her feminine figure well. ""It's not too slutty is it? I want to give women a good rep, so I want to be covered head to toe but I still feel it's a little...clingy I don't know."" Sue shrugged and became insecure about herself again. She never thought of her herself as sexy as she was modest and gave more time to academics than social peer pressure.<br/><br/>She knew Reed would just say what she wanted to hear though and pouted. ""Be honest."" She told him as she folded her arms.<br/><br/>Standing up as Susan came back in Reed wanted to give her an honest answer. He looked down at his own suit first. ""Well I mean all of our suits are a bit clingy. Look at mine it doesn't leave a lot to the imagination."" Reed noted looking over himself. ""So I wouldn't be too worried, plus you could wear a pink moo-moo and I'd still find you hot."" Reed said with a grin that showed his honesty hopefully, as he came up to Susan. ""Still the idea, and I think remember this..."" Reed gently began to stretch his arms up and down Susan's body, his hands just barely touching her against her suit. ""We're all wearing the same look, we're a team. So if you look slutty we all look slutty, and I don't feel very slutty right now."" Reed quietly told her, ""I mean I did just inflate my own ass but still... wouldn't mind doing it again if you want by the way. You know... just in case."" Reed chuckled with a warm smile.<br/><br/>Reed's warm embrace encourage Susan and she nodded at him. ""I can live with that."" She chuckled back and planted a small kiss on his lips. ""Let's go introduce ourselves to the world then, my sexy elastic man."" She winked at him playfully. She just hoped that the public liked them...<br/><br/>Reed returned the kiss in kind, once again he puffed up his rear end again as Sue's hands went over it. Along with his entire body bulking up a bit more muscular. Reed couldn't help it, and frankly he just enjoyed doing it as it didn't require a lot of effort. ""I couldn't agree more my pretty little... invisible... I can't make it work quite as well."" Reed said laughing a little as he let go of Susan but kept an arm on her shoulder as they walked out of the bedroom.<br/><br/>""I know we haven't had much of a chance to talk about everything how crazy the last two weeks have been."" Reed started, wanting to address what he felt like was an elephant in the room so to speak. ""But you're sure you're okay with all this? I know Johnny is ecstatic to an almost scary degree, and Ben has been okay about it. You on the other hand I've not really been able to gauge how you're feeling about everything."" Reed asked Susan, since the biggest concern he had about the four of them going forward as a superhero team was making sure everything was manageable for them. He knew celebrity life is crazy enough, but also going into dangerous situations on top of that makes the idea intimidating no matter how exciting the possibilities were.<br/><br/>Susan stopped their advance mid walk. ""Reed."" She turned to look him in the eye. ""With you by my side. I feel strong. Like I'm ready to take on the whole world. No matter what it throws as us. As long as I know you're sticking by me, through thick and thin....for better or worse...."" She trailed off but stopped herself there with reddened cheeks. So many crazy things had happened all at once that the two had barely any time to talk about their relationship or personal feelings. ""Just don't...neglect us in all this, okay? That is all I ask."" Sue smiled after she divulged her reasonable condition. Although she wondered how much alone time they would really get from now on.<br/><br/>""Sue..."" Reed noted as he smiled a bit as well from her request. ""I couldn't neglect you or stop thinking about you if I tried..."" Reed kissed her on the forehead before the two continued on to meet up with Johnny, Ben, and Tony Stark.</div>"

After he expressed his disapproval of Quicksilver’s actions, even though they were directed at a mutant-hating radical who probably deserved worse, Cyclops pressed the x-shaped communicator that was located on his chest.  “Colossus, what’s your status?”<br/><br/>	“Your path is clear, Cyclops.”  Colossus’ voice echoed from the communicator, “I’ll be heading back your way momentarily.”<br/><br/>	Meanwhile, Peter caught the key from Quicksilver.  However, unlike most keys where you would insert it into a lock, this was an electronic key.  He saw a small metallic circle on Firestar’s shackles and therefore held up the key against that spot.  When it automatically deactivated the shackles, Peter immediately searched for the same spot on the collar that was attached to Firestar.

When he caught sight of the fake Spider-Man, Bobby’s jaw dropped when he saw that the doppelgänger was holding Firestar, or rather <span class=""bb-b"">another</span> Firestar, in a choke hold.<br/><br/>	“Spidey, help!”  The other Firestar squirmed under the doppelgänger’s hold on her, “Don’t fall for that imposter.  I’m the real Firestar!”<br/><br/>	“What?”  The Firestar who was standing by Peter, Iceman, Nightcrawler, and Quicksilver replied back, “There is no way that could be me, right?  This is just <span class=""bb-b"">way</span> too convenient to happen.”<br/><br/>	“Well, at least we figured out which one is the real webhead!”  Bobby blurred out, giving a smile and a thumbs up to the other X-Men and Peter, who were around him.<br/><br/> <font color=""red"">“Thanks, Einstein!  Obviously it took an imposter having someone, who looks like Firestar, in a chokehold to clear that up.  Let’s just ignore that fact that I have been helping out this whole time.”</font>  Peter just shook his head at his friend's comment, not knowing whether he seriously meant it or he was just cracking a joke.<br/><br/>	Meanwhile, while Spider-Man and the X-Men were distracted by this spectacle, Herbert Landon, who now had his pants pulled back up, and his henchmen were trying to sneak out unnoticed.  Landon already knew that they were outmatched by the present X-Men.  Now that the experiment was all but a failure, he decided that he might as well cut his losses and try again at a later date.</div>"

Quicksilver folded his arms and gave his field leader a shrug that made it clear how he could not really care about Herbert’s feelings.  “You know I could of done much worse...”  Quicksilver noted feeling a bit better in his throat.  “Can’t even say thank you for showing restraint...”  He added in a mutter looking away from the field leader.<br/><br/>Just then though things got weird as suddenly a Spider-Man was clinching a Firestar in a choke hold.  Surprised a bit now that his suspicion about a clone running around was not only confirmed but double confirmed.  Quicksilver quickly started realizing something was fishy about these clones and saw a possible test forming in his head.  <br/><br/>Grabbing Bobby by the arm gently and pulling him over Quicksilver leaned to his ear.  “Freeze both of the Firestars...”  Quicksilver told him very quietly.  Bobby went wide eyed at such a notion.  “WHAT?!”  He muttered back.  “Look if we’re dealing with clones like we have in the past with that Mystique chick.  Then if they can replicate their looks they can’t replicate their powers.  So I’ll check with the Spider-Men, and you check with the Firestars alright?”<br/><br/>Bobby paused considering the notion before giving Quicksilver a nod.  Separating and waiting a bit Quicksilver quickly went to the guards looking for something to throw and finding in one of all thing throwing knives.  Pausing at the bizarre ideas the guy had for security and proper equipment for said security.  Quicksilver motioned for Bobby to go, who true to the plan quickly shot ice at both of the Firestars while Quicksilver loaded up a pair of shots on both of the Spider-Men.<br/><br/>“HEY SPIDEY CATCH!”  He called out launching an underhanded thrown knife at both of their legs.  Quicksilver had heard once that Spidey supposedly had some power where he could sense incoming danger.  Hopefully that was true, otherwise the lecture Cyclops is going to be giving him when they get back is going to be <span class=""bb-i"">WAY</span> worse.</div>"

But the mutant speedster was lucky that Cyclops was not on the ground level because, after what Quicksilver had planned to do next, the leader of the X-Men would probably have given him an earful.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, Peter’s spider-sense began to buzz in his head.  After peering around for the danger and hearing Quicksilver shout out his name, Peter realized that Quicksilver had picked up some throwing knives from the stash of weapons that the mutant had lifted from the guards and the Maggia goons.  Now, two separate throwing knives were darting towards both Peter and the doppelganger’s thighs.  Peter had zero idea about what Quicksilver was doing; they had already established that he was the real Spider-Man.<br/><br/>	Guessing that the doppelganger was only copying his own appearance, Peter decided he was going to try to deflect the knife.  Even though his doppelganger was a villain, no one deserves getting struck by a knife in the leg, even at the risk of his own wellbeing.  After unloading a round of web bullets, Peter was successful at knocking the knife out of its intended path so that it would safely fly past his doppelganger.<br/><br/>	However, now Peter had a more pressing concern: the knife that was darting towards him.  While he could have easily dodged the projectile if he had not taken care of the other throwing knife, the knife that was coming towards him was going to be a little more difficult to evade, especially since Quicksilver probably did not realize that he had put a little extra ‘zip’ onto his throw.  Peter therefore attempted to sidestep the knife.  Although fly past him, the blade of the knife still tasted his blood, cutting across his thigh.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Holy shi…”</font>  Peter cried out in pain as he pressed his hands against the knife wound that Quicksilver had given him.<br/><br/>	At the same time, Iceman tried to freeze both Firestars.  The real Firestar, who had been standing next to them this whole time, instinctively used her own microwave-based powers to counteract Iceman’s power.  The doppelganger, who had the ‘fake’ Firestar in his clutched, dove to the floor with his ‘hostage’ still in his arms, mainly as a subconscious reaction to doge the knife that had been flying towards him.  However, it also allowed them to dodge Iceman’s attack.<br/><br/>	“WHAT THE HELL, ICEMAN?”  Angelica yelled at her teammate.<br/><br/>	“We were just trying to make sure you were the real deal…”  Iceman replied timidly, slowly backing away from Firestar.<br/><br/>	“YOU COULD HAVE ASKED ME TO JUST ACTIVATE MY POWERS, NIMROD!”  She continued to berate the ice-covered mutant.  However, at this moment, she heard Peter yell in pain as the knife grazed the spider-themed superhero.  Concern filled her mind as she looked back at Peter as he crotched to the ground with his hands trying to slow the bleeding.  She then turned to see the perpetrator: Quicksilver.<br/><br/>	“What the fucking hell, Quicksilver?  Why the hell did you do that?  We already knew this Spidey was the real one, you moron!”  Angelica pointed towards the wounded Peter.  Then, a yellow-orange glow began to irradiate around Firestar as she began to hover above the ground. “If you wanted to see whether we were legit because of our powers, then I will <span class=""bb-b"">show</span> you my powers!”<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Angel,”</font>  Peter muttered, still cringing at the pain in his leg, <font color=""#ed1c24"">“He’s not worth it.  I have all the confidence in the world that you could kick the ass of that sorry accuse of an X-Man, but now isn't the time.”</font><br/><br/>	Firestar just levitated in the air after Peter spoke, glaring at Quicksilver because of what he had done.  However, it was Cyclops who laid down the hammer.<br/><br/>	“Quicksilver.  LEAVE.  Go home and wait for us to get back.”  Cyclops pointed towards the exit that Colossus had made for their exit route.  His voice was raised, but Cyclops tried to hold back from yelling, even though he would have had steaming pouring out of his ears if he was a cartoon character.  Even before Quicksilver could complain, Cyclops already anticipated any complains, “I don’t want to see you.  I don’t want to hear your voice.  I want you out of my sight.  NOW.  And if the Professor hasn’t given you a mindful by the time we get back, you know damn well that I’ll give you an earful.”</div>"

There was no response from headquarters.  While there was a chance that some type of superhuman situation was happening back at the S.H.E.I.L.D. headquarters, the more likely explanation for the radio silence is that something, or rather someone, was interfering with the signal on their end.<br/><br/>	“Base?”  Hawkeye whispered into the communicator on his wrist, so that the purple ‘Dr. Manhattan’ did not realize that they were present, “Repeat.  I did not copy.”<br/><br/>	The static noise continued, even after Clint’s attempt to reach someone back at base.  However, while he was preoccupied with the communication issues, Clint was not paying attention to the battle between the Rider and Simon Williams.  Suddenly, a purple blast pierced through the upper portion of the column behind which they were hiding.  Mockingbird, who noticed the danger before Clint could, yanked him toward herself.  Since she was more concerned about making sure Clint was not squashed by the falling debris, Mockingbird’s actions put herself off balance, causing her to tumble backwards.  Clint, too, since he was abruptly pulled in that direction, fell to the ground right on top of his ally.<br/><br/>	“You know what?”  Clint asked her, “I probably would crack a joke about being on top of you, but considering our situation, now is not the time.”<br/><br/>	“You know that, by saying you wouldn’t, you in a way did.”  Mockingbird rolled her eyes at the purple-garbed archer.<br/><br/>	“But there wasn’t a joke!”  Clint protested as he pulled himself off the ground.  He then retrieved an arrow from his quiver and notched it onto his bow.  He then pulled back on the bowstring while he aimed his arrow towards Simon Williams.  He took care into making sure that he would not hit the Rider inadvertently.   When he knew that his aim was true, released his grip on the bow string and allowed the purple-tinted arrow fly.  When it struck Simon, it momentarily stunned him.  However, the arrow began to disintegrate almost as soon as it made contact with his ionically-charged body.<br/><br/>	“That’s definitely not good.”  Hawkeye muttered to Mockingbird as he saw that the arrow did not do much to Simon Williams except for probably making him angrier.<br/><br/>	Simon Williams then turned to face the direction where the arrow had originated, that is, where Hawkeye and Mockingbird were standing.  The red in his eyes began to glow even deeper as anger filled the man.  He furrowed his brow as he looked at the two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.<br/><br/>	“So, Thomas has hired two more goons to stop me.  Well, he might have stolen my company, but there is <span class=""bb-b"">no one</span> on this planet who can stop me now.”<br/><br/>	While Simon was talking, the Rider took this opportunity to make another strike against the ionically-charged man.  However, Simon merely brushed him off.  He picked up the dark hooded man by his neck and tossed him towards Hawkeye and Mockingbird.  However, before they could react, the Rider came barreling into the two S.H.I.L.E.D. agents, knocking them onto the ground.<br/><br/>	“What’s this guy’s problem?”  Clint muttered to himself as he rubbed the side of his head where he was feeling a little pain from where the Rider had collided with Clint.  “So, what do we do now?”</div>"

The place was a safe haven for members of the criminal underworld, with the bartender Deke often stating that the Bar With No Name is a sanctuary for those fleeing from the law. Tonight seemed to be a clear example of that, with the placed packed to the brim with unsavoury looking crooks and criminals. Despite how busy the place seemed, Frederick was loving it. <br/><br/>The ragtag bunch of supervillains were all currently sitting in their usual booth, drinking the night away. Every so often James Sanders, AKA Speed Demon, would dart away in a flash, in a half assed attempt to find his way into a girls pants. He always returned a quickly as he had left, his face bright red from where he had been slapped, as well as stating that the girl had been “Hot, So hot.” Morris Bench, AKA Hydro-Man,  just sat mostly in silence, giving the occasional laugh when one of them cracked a joke, spending the rest of his time turning his fingers into water before dipping them into his beer. Herman Schultz, AKA Shocker, on the other hand was acting extremely loud and obnoxious. In other words, he was immensely drunk. <br/><br/>That had been when the conversation had turned towards Fred’s plans. Plans which involved robbing the Owl, one of Manhattan’s most fearsome crime bosses. As such, the rest of the group didn’t really seem too interested. Fred could only sit there and grimace. If this was going to work, he needed them. All of them. Sighing, the Australian took grabbed his glass and gulped down the rest of his pint. He may as well have some fun tonight?<br/><br/>It wasn’t long until the night grew slightly more interesting. It would seem that James’ attempts at banging every woman who entered the place had attracted the attention of his latest victim’s boyfriend; the humongous hippo-sized Hippo. Try saying that five times after downing several pints! Now due to James’ annoying personality, it wasn’t difficult to see when Hippo wanted to punch the guy in the face. <br/><br/>Hippo lashed out angrily, only for Speed Demon to step away cockily at superhuman speed, causing the giant to come crashing forward into a table. <br/><br/>“Nice job, Rhino!” The speedster jested, before taking another sip from his beer bottle.<br/><br/>“<span class=""bb-b"">I am not a rhino!</span>” Mr Not-A-Rhino roared loudly, as he lunged forward once more in another unsuccessful attempt at catching Speed Demon.<br/><br/>Fred simply sat and smirked from the booth as he watched the events take place.  James really could be a tremendous dick sometimes. His smile faded however as his eyes caught sight of Hippo’s drinking mates from across the room, who were beginning to rise from their seats, their eyes fixated on the fight. Fred gulped. This was certainly going to get messy. <br/><br/>Deciding that the best course of action would be to get the hell out of there, Fred rose to his feet. On his way to the door, he stopped next to Speed Demon, who had just avoided another attack from Hippo whom was currently catching his breath. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">James, do me a favour, and hit him in the balls for me.</font>” Fred said coolly, patting his friend supportively on the shoulder. <br/><br/>“Oh, will do Freddy-Boy!” The speedster replied with a sly smile, as he rubbed his hands together menacingly. <br/><br/>With that, Fred turned and headed towards the door, giving a short wave goodbye to the now panicking Deke behind the bar as he did so. Before he could leave however, a voice from across the room caught his attention.<br/><br/>“Where the hell are you going Myers?” <br/><br/>Fred turned to find that the voice belonged to none other than Desmond Charne, otherwise known as Mirage, otherwise known as the villain with the worst costume ever. Seriously, the guy wears a bright yellow spandex. Even his supervillain debut was lame; robbing weddings? Really? In this case he seemed to be a member of the Hippo’s crew. How that relationship came about, Fred had no idea. Reluctantly, Fred decided to pity the man with an answer.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Thought I’d just go out for a smoke mate</font>” He jeered. “<font color=""#a187be"">Be back in to kick your ass shortly.</font>”<br/><br/>The comment seemed somewhat funny to the pathetic villain, as Desmond seemed to laugh. “Real funny, you fucking coward!”<br/><br/>The C-Word caused Fred to stop in his tracks completely, with him having turned to leave once more. Coward, him? Sure that was kind of true, but he certainly could let everyone here think that. He had his reputation to think about! Jesus Christ, was he actually doing this?<br/><br/>Turning back around, Fred faced Desmond and the rest of the bar’s inhabitants, who had directed their attention from Hippo and Speed Demon to him. Smiling, he gave a shrug.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Well, if you really insist I stay.</font>”<br/><br/>At that, Fred reached to his pocket, from which he revealed a gleaming boomerang of razor-sharp white metal, launching it forward through the air in front of him.</div>"

He watched Miss America's body slam into the floor with enough force to rip the concrete from the very ground. Hyperion took his time floating toward Chavez, intent to continue beating the girl to within an inch of her life. If only. He'd have to hold back significantly if these insects had any hope of surviving this trivial encounter. Normally, Zhib-Ran didn't worry himself about keeping his enemies alive. But this was a special case. It was not yet time to reveal his true loyalties. So for now, Hyperion pulled his punches. ""I must say, Miss, I expected more from you. Perhaps the good captain overestimated your abilities."" Zhib-Ran jeered. He hoped his taunting would drive the girl to her feet. If she was as brutish as Hyperion suspected, the dimension-hopper would lose her cool and attack him out of spite. Anger was a powerful asset, but few knew how to control it. ""Come now. You're not down and out after <span class=""bb-i"">that</span>, are you?""<br/><br/>The doors to the training room slid open. Zhib-Ran briefly turned toward the new arrival, and was mildly surprised to see the so-called Ant-Man standing in the doorway. <br/><br/>""I guess you can call me tru<span class=""bb-i"">ant</span> for this shindig.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">O' gods.</span> Hyperion internally grumbled. <span class=""bb-i"">He makes ant puns. Kill me now.</span> The absurdity of it all was uncanny. Zhib-Ran was an alien god. He was destined to lord over the entire Milky Way galaxy. He was only months away, perhaps weeks, from slaughtering every so called 'hero' on this backwater world and setting himself up as its sole ruler. And his primary adversary, the only people who had any sort of hope at stopping Hyperion's conquest, were these 'Avengers.'<br/><br/>And one of them made ant puns.<br/><br/>""Seriously?"" Zhib-Ran muttered. <span class=""bb-i"">This is ridiculous. Who in their right mind wou-</span> In his moment of utter perplexity, Hyperion had neglected to mind his surrounding. He was totally unaware of Miss America's recovery and subsequent charge until she had struck him directly in the jaw. If he had been any of the six billion or so gnats that populated earth, Zhib-Ran's head would have promptly exited his shoulder at three digit speeds. But Hyperion was no fragile human. Miss America's strength, while greater than many of the mightiest warriors earth bred, was nothing compared to this particular alien. Zhib-Ran stumbled backwards a step. Surprise crossed his face for but a moment. ""Ha!"" He proclaimed as soon as he realized what had occurred. ""Well done, my dear. You took advantage of my ineptitude. You struck when your enemy was at his weakest. Very well done indeed!"" Hyperion caught Miss America's followup swing. He squeezed his larger hands around Chavez's fist, a look of pure adrenaline in his eyes. With his free hand, Hyperion launched a backhand toward the snared superhuman's cheek.<br/><br/>He estimated that the blow would be likely to land and turned his attention toward Pym. He fired off another pair of concussive energy beams at Ant-Man and chucked his compatriot (if she hadn't found a way to escape in that brief lapse of miliseconds, that is) at subsonic speeds right at him. ""Where are the rest of you, by the way? I was told the entire team would be present. I was hoping to go a few rounds with the Norse gods and the armored one as well.""</div>"

But Hank wasn’t normal, and sometimes not very logical in how he went about things— his travels in eastern Europe countries such as Latveria and Symkaria were proof of that. He had gotten into trouble, but mostly <span class=""bb-i"">good</span> trouble as far as he believed it. He had a trust fund and instead of wasting it away partying in The Hamptons like some of his “silver spoon”-imbedded peers he decided to put it to use proactively. He studied at several universities and became a paramour of a European princess for a brief time. It was a blast. He’d have to write about it in his tell-all book. If he’d ever <span class=""bb-i"">live</span> to write it.<br/><br/>Though fighting a god was definitely not something that would help with that goal.<br/><br/>Lucky he had thought about this.<br/><br/>Ever since the fight with Elias Weams he had thought about “weams particles” and where that Gigantus suit went <span class=""bb-i"">wrong</span>. Scientifically he could’ve been (and was) on the way to taking the prototypical theories Hank’s father had discovered and utilized, but there was a snag. There was no proper testing— Weams just jumped into the suit and expected for it to work. All that it did for Elias Weams was drive him insane and end up as his demise. Hank had taken the Gigantus blueprints with an external hard drive and when he wasn’t eating pizza he was trying to expand on it; which was something he could do much more efficiently since A) he was smarter than Weams, and B) he had all of the original research notes the original Ant-Man wrote. <br/><br/>He just never had used them outside of rudimentary tests in upstate New York— away from cameras and people. But this was the chance to see if it would work without prep time.<br/><br/>Hank’s hand went to his wrist, dialing a function— to which is molecules began to vibrate… <span class=""bb-i"">visibly</span>.

He wondered if he could modify it so he could make it even greater? Perhaps it was good that the room was only 42 feet tall. Well, maybe later then; he’d have to cross that bridge later. <br/><br/>For now it was time for Gi-Ant Man to defeat a god.</div><br/></div>"

Although he could not see him as he ran because of his supersonic speed, Cyclops knew that the son of Magneto probably did something to express his frustration, such as sticking his tongue or giving the leader of the X-Men the middle finger.  While this move did make them short one man, there was no place for anyone on the X-Men who would endanger the lives of his teammates.  Furthermore, Cyclops and Colossus were the ones initially assigned to this mission.  Quicksilver was only sent as extra-help.<br/><br/>	“Iceman.  A little help up here.”  Cyclops called out to Bobby Drake.  In response, Iceman produced a stalagmite of ice that rose up to where Cyclops was standing.  Once the stalagmite was stable, Cyclops took hold of the ice structure and slide down it, as if it was like a fireman’s pole.  The stalagmite was slightly angled so that the field commander of the X-Men would not fall straight down to the ground.<br/><br/>	While it seemed as if the X-Men were preoccupied by safely getting Cyclops down to the ground level, Spider-Man’s doppelganger retrieved a handgun from the Firestar impostor, revealing that this woman was the one who fired a bullet at Cyclops a few minutes ago.  The man stood up and pointed the firearm in the direction of the X-Men.  When the doppelganger had lined up the gun with Iceman, he was about ready to pull the trigger.  However, a burst of red energy knocked the would-be assassin off his feet.<br/><br/>	Even though he was descending on the ice stalagmite that Iceman had created, Cyclops still had a watchful eye.  When he caught sight of what the doppelganger was about ready to do, Cyclops clicked the visor trigger that was located on his glove, since he could not press the one on his visor due to needing both hands to safely descend to the ground.  This was the precise reason why Professor Xavier and Scott decided to add the glove triggers: only having an activation button on the visor would make his mutant powers useless if he could not press it.<br/><br/>	“Nightcrawler!”  Cyclops commanded as he pointed towards the two impostors, “Teleport them into one of the cages!  And make sure they don’t have any other weapons on them.”<br/><br/>	Almost as soon as Cyclops had finished speaking, the blue imp lunged into the air before disappearing into a purple and black puff of smoke that smelled of sulfur.  One moment, Nightcrawler appeared next to the two doppelgangers.  At the next, only a similar sulfur-smelling cloud of purple smoke remained, along with a single glock.  When Nightcrawler reappeared beside his allies, the two impostors were lying down within one of the cages that had imprisoned Firestar and Nightcrawler.<br/><br/>	“But who will bind the bars back into place?  Spidey is injured!”  Firestar asked Cyclops as she pointed towards the bars that Spider-Man had bent in order to release her and Nightcrawler from their respective cages.  What go was it to put them in them if they could just squeeze through the bent bars.<br/><br/>	“I can do that.”   The X-Men heard a voice with a Russian accent from the far side of the room.  Colossus had finally returned from making sure they had an escape route.  And in his arms, the colossal X-Man carried Herbert Landon, who had tried to flee from the scene while the X-Men were busy with the two doppelgangers.  “I discovered this little rat was trying to scramble away into his mouse hole”.<br/><br/>	After he dropped Landon onto the ground with a thud, Colossus walked over to the cage that contained the two doppelgangers.  The X-Men were not sure whether these two individuals were mutants or mutates, although it would not make sense for them to work for such a mutant-hating bigot like Landon if they were the former, they could change their appearances like chameleons.<br/><br/>	“I was so close at finalizing my formula!”  Landon shouted out in anger, “If it wasn’t for you and that pesky Spider-Man, I would have been famous.  II would have been known as the man who solved the mutant crisis!”<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Wait, did he just unironically make a Scooby-Doo reference?”</font>  Peter winced as he covered the knife would on his leg with a coating of webbing.<br/><br/>	“This game is over.”  Cyclops responded to Landon’s cries of outrage, although he did ignore what Spider-Man had said, “We’re going to turn you over to the proper authorities and let them give your whatever justice you deserve.”<br/><br/>	“Never!”  Landon shouted back, “Anyways, who do you think they will believe?  Me, a well-respected industrialist, or you colorful-costumed freaks?  You’re the ones who broke into my facility!”<br/><br/>	“And you kidnapped our friends.”  Cyclops barked back.<br/><br/>	“Did I ever…”  Landon began to say, but when he began to stand up, he lost his balance on the floor that was slick because some of the frozen green liquid began to thaw.  Landon fell backwards, sliding over the liquid-covered floor until he slammed into the pile of the “formula” snow.  Even though only half of his body hit the snow, Landon nevertheless shrieked in pain.  He almost immediately scrambled away from the semi-frozen substance, revealing that the half of his body that had made contact with the formula that he had created was turning green and hairless.<br/><br/>	“The irony.  A man so focused on trying to cure a so-called disease did not see how it would affect a regular human being.”  Cyclops muttered out loud.  Then he turned towards his team and Spider-Man.  “I think our job is done here.  We’ll make an anonymous tip on our way out.  Also, need a ride, Spider-Man?”<br/><br/>	Peter looked down at his thigh and then back at Cyclops.  Although his accelerated healing factor was already repairing the wound, Peter thought that it would be better if he would allow it to heal completely.  <font color=""#ed1c24"">“You know what, I don’t want to kill myself trying to get home, so why the heck not.”</font><br/><br/>	Herbert Landon would have protested even more, had he not succumbed to the pain that pierced the contaminated half of his body.  As Spider-Man and the X-Men departed from the facility, making sure to call 9-1-1 once they have left, Landon collapsed to the ground, where the paramedics discovered him. <br/></div>"

Instead he let out a torrent of insults so fast that nothing could audibly come out of his mouth, and dashed off just to get away from the visor wearing fucker.<br/><br/>He just wanted one night, ONE FUCKING NIGHT, where he didn’t have to be Quicksilver. Where he could just be Pietro, go out and enjoy himself for once. He could not even finish a fucking beer before everyone had to go calling and begging for him to come help. Like every single X-Men were a bunch of toddlers and he had to go actually be a fucking grown up to show them how its done. The best part is when he tried to do what he felt was right, he got chastised, chewed out. Did they think he even joined them because he fucking felt like it?! Pietro was sick, sick of the way he was treated, sick with worry about his sister where ever she was, most of all just fucking sick of everything!<br/><br/>It took a bit of time but finally Pietro found himself out in a beach alone. He didn’t know where exactly and he didn’t care. His top pulled off as Pietro just laid back on the sandy shore just looking out at the quiet ocean ahead of him. A six pack of beer rested beside him. He almost ran off with it from the small corner store but before he could somehow make everything more worse. He just threw money on the counter as he darted past. Was it enough? Did the guy even notice? Pietro had long since not given a fuck about any of that.<br/><br/>Cranking open a beer Pietro mindlessly chugged down, keeping himself upright with one hand firmly planted into the firm but still soft sand. He couldn’t think straight with his conflicted feelings of confusion, rage, mild sadness, and an overall clueless thought about what to do next. He’d rather die at this point than go back to the mansion and get a lecture from the boy scout pain in the ass Cyclops. What the Hell did Xavier see in that asshole anyways? Another swig, another feeling that trying to decide anything at that point was fucking useless.<br/><br/>Pietro started to realize that someone was nearby as he finished the beer. Only he couldn’t be arsed to do anything besides belch and toss the empty beer bottle aside. “Look at you... it’s all just so... pathetic...” Quickly Pietro recognized the voice. His eyes shot wide open as he turned. The white dress of the woman held sway over her dark blue skin and red hair. Her lips perched in a smirk as Pietro gritted his teeth.<br/><br/>“Easy. The rest of the Brotherhood are still in Boston. Its just me.” Mystique calmly assured Pietro who didn’t buy it. Though he didn’t have any idea how she found him, or why they would go after him. Still Pietro’s eyes impatiently darted around the beach waiting for the first sign of a set up. Nothing though was coming, and Mystique clearly knew he was waiting for something that wasn’t coming.<br/><br/>Quietly she took a seat next to Pietro, who slid over away from her. “It must be so terrible...” Mystique started, glancing out to the same ocean Pietro was before. “You, one of the great heroes of the Latverian struggle. Reduced to the physical and emotional whipping boy of the X-Men.” Mystique gently placed a hand onto Pietro’s thigh. Its calming effect started to break through his differences. Still Pietro was trying to figure out what game she was playing.<br/><br/>“You know, its funny... To see someone finally realize the entire hypocrisy of Xavier’s little dream. Peace doesn’t come from holding hands, asking nicely for people to stop being mean, all that hippie crap.” Mystique scoffed at the last bits. Pietro had a hard time disagreeing with that idea. “Mutants and people will never co-exist, people of different colors for thousands of years couldn’t co-exist. No matter how much the X-Men refuse to see it.”<br/><br/>“Trust me, they don’t see a lot of things.” Pietro noted as he opened another beer, this time though opening a third which he passed to Mystique. “Hell, they had me go stop some asshole who was going to put Nightcrawler and Firestar into some mutant cure shit. Cyclops was too busy chewing me out while they let the guy get away!” The last Quicksilver saw of Herbert Landon the guy was slowly getting away. Since he was sure Cyclops was too busy having his head up his own ass he probably never noticed and let the guy get away.<br/><br/>“Hmm, frankly, you’re too good for them, and I think we’re all smart enough to see it.” Mystique noted, glancing over at Pietro. Looking him up and down and humming to herself in thought. “You know, maybe you need something new.” Getting up Mystique gently grasped Pietro’s arm. “I have an idea...”<br/><br/>Driving Pietro away, who mostly spent the night drive trying to find out where he was going before just taking a nap after giving up. He knew taking a ride from the leader of the Brotherhood had all the set up for something terrible. Though the shape shifter kept herself looking different from her blue hued normal appearances. Pietro couldn’t be bothered to put the top of his X-Men uniform on. Laying in the back of the car shirt less and probably looking as miserable as he felt.<br/><br/>When the car finally came to a stop Pietro opened his eyes to them having pulled up to a very unusual place, a small barber shop. Mystique led him inside where she greeted the barber and told him what to do as Pietro started to wonder again what the plan was. At this rate though he kind of enjoyed not knowing what was happening. Still the barber gave him a haircut that felt like all his anger falling away. His chin length hair getting trimmed down short, like he used to have it as a child. Treated so the brown hair dye he had been using for some time was coming off. Revealing his striking white hair under years of being hidden away under chemicals.<br/><br/>“Hmm, now this...” Mystique said as she leaned in while Pietro got a first good look at himself after the haircut. He had to admit he rather enjoyed the look. “This is someone who could use a fresh start. Someone who could have people listen to him and not the other way around. Do you know what I see looking in this mirror?” She leaned in close to Pietro’s ear.<br/><br/>“A true leader.”<br/><br/>Pietro started to grin at the idea, he liked the idea of people listening to him instead of having to take crap from others. The thoughts danced merrily in his mind until he started to see something else in the mirror. Something he hadn’t seen in a long time but hoped to never see again. It wasn’t something physically in the room, but it was the thing his mind created while Pietro looked in the mirror.<br/><br/>It was Erik Lansherr, looking back, grinning.</div>"

Her attack had done absolutely nothing.<br/><br/>America Chavez jaw metaphorically dropped as she stared in awe, her eyes fixated on Hyperion who simple shrugged off her hit as if it had been nothing. Sure the blow had caused him to stumble slightly, mostly due to the fact that she had taken him by surprise, yet in a mere second he had recovered. Then, he proceeded to mock her. His comments, while that of a positive nature were patronising. He knew he was stronger than she was. He knew that her attack hadn’t matter. <br/><br/>Deciding to make use of the opportunity presented by him talking, she swung her fist once more. Yet despite her moving at superhuman speeds, she found her arm caught by Hyperion. His firm hold on her kept her in place. She couldn’t move. She couldn’t act. All she could do was watch him as he smile, his eyes bulging with adrenaline. America didn’t know what it was, but to her it seemed like Hyperion was enjoying this. <br/><br/>Before she could take any more of a beating, Hyperion turned back towards Ant-Man, pulling America with him as he prepared to catapult her through the air. However no such action occurred. Instead America found herself saved; saved by a giant fist hitting Hyperion square in the back. The blow caused the two to tumble, with Hyperion losing his grip. Realising that she didn’t have long to act, she landed firmly on her hands and knees, before propelling herself back upwards into the air. <br/><br/>She moved fast, appearing as a streak of red, white, and blue to the rest of the room’s inhabitants, circling the fight from above. It would seem that Ant-Man had, as his very appalling pun explained, had turned into some sort of Giant-Man. America was impressed, raw strength was definitely needed against someone like Hyperion. Yet that wasn’t the only thing. She thought back to a few days ago, during her confrontation with the Hulk. The thought of the battle still pained her; so much catastrophic damage had spiralled from that fist-fight. She moved her mind past that and focused on the facts. In the end, hitting the Hulk didn’t help in the slightest. The only way they ended up “winning” was because of the interference from the Norse God Loki. Now, unless today was America’s lucky day, she didn’t see that same interference happening twice. No, blunt force wasn’t what they needed here. They needed to be smart. Find his weakness. Find his weak spots. <br/><br/>She decided to convey this to her newfound partner.<br/><br/>“<font color=""aquamarine"">Ant… Giant Man!</font>” She slowed near him as she spoke. “<font color=""aquamarine"">Any idea on how we take him down? I’m pretty sure that if a punch from me won’t do it, then a regular beat down won’t be enough for this <span class=""bb-i"">chico</span></font>”<br/></div>"

After he was a good length into the forests he touched down and looked for something now on foot. He finally came upon a hidden bunker that looked like it hadn't been opened in years. After becoming a student at Xavier's Institute and seeing what was called the 'Danger Room' as a teenager, Warren used his wealth to build a smaller version for personal use. He'd only used it a total of three or four times before deciding to keep his head down until after he took control of the company. Plants and vines were grown up all over the latch, luckily Warren had a sword with fire emitting from it. A button in the handle conserved power and it returned to a normal broadsword looking blade. He sliced through the shrubbery and entered through the latch punching in a number code to get through a secondary door which lead to a ladder that went probably twenty meters underground. It dropped into the center of a dome like room roughly the size of a middle school football field and about seventy-five meters high.  Warren didn't have to worry about anybody else getting to the ladder. <br/><br/>""It only took me twenty minutes to get here at my top speed. Should think about giving myself an actual headquarters, maybe build another wing..."" he began to think to himself before cracking a smile. <br/><br/>""LET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD!"" Warren yelled activating the Angel Room's voice controls, ""Three enemies, two capable of flight, Central Park setting.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Configuring settings...</span> said a voice over the com link. <br/><br/>Central Park had been created to near perfection. Archangel wondered what sort of old files the system would dig from to create the enemies. Three holo-droids came up from a port in the ground, two turned into red and black Sentinel like robots standing roughly fifteen feet tall. Both could fly. The holo-droid on the ground turned into a Bruce Willis looking soldier with a machine gun. It was about to get real.<br/><br/>Warren flew through the air facing the pair of robot attackers and dodging the bullets from below. He pushed the button to ignite the flames on the sword. When one of the robots got in close enough Archangel flew lower into the trees and slices at one of the arms of the robot nearly taking it clean of with the one strike. Propelling backwards after landing the strike with the fiery sword, he stabbed through the other robot and rode it's husk down to the ground where the soldier had run out of ammo. Warren flew up in a large gust of wind pushed from his wings and knocked the soldier down and put the sword to his neck.<br/><br/>""I think I won this round. We need to update the files. And I need to add on to this underground structure..."" he said out loud, ""Now... I need to get back to the office and read up on this Doctor Johnathan Sweet...""<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

That was until the gleaming white projectile shot right pass the yellow clad “supervillain” entirely, resulting in an eruption of laughter from pretty much everyone. Including some of Fred’s own crew, with James, AKA Speed Demon, giving him a thumbs up and nodding in a very mockingly manner. <br/><br/>All Fred could do was shake his head disappointingly. When would people learn? <br/><br/>As if to prove his point, Mirage was struck from behind, the boomerang knocking the has-been to his knees. At once, Fred charged forwards, swinging his leg around as he approached his target and launching his foot as hard as he could into the guy’s stomach. It was this action that erupted the bar into chaos. The monstrous Hippo roared loudly after watching his partner Desmond take such a beating, as well as swinging his arm once more towards Speed Demon. This time the walking mammal managed to hit him, with the speedster having been distracted by Fred. The blow from Hippo sent him flying across the room, causing him to crash straight through a table of tough looking thugs. Obviously they weren’t too happy, with their drinks smashing all over the now broken table, as well as themselves. The group rose to their feet in anger, attempting to make a grab for Speed Demon.<br/><br/>While this had been going on, the rest of Hippo’s gang had started to make their move. It was only now that Fred could get a good look at them, and boy was he disappointed. First came Leap-Frog. Yes, that’s right. A supervillain actually named Leap-Frog. Sure, Boomerang wasn’t all that great a name, but at least he didn’t run around wearing a frog costume. His mask was currently off, revealing the face of a slightly chubby and balding Latino man who was probably in his late 40s. His name was Vincent, if Fred could remember correctly. Not like it would matter in a few minutes when Fred had kicked his ass. The next and final member was a man Fred could only assume was the Big Wheel, evident by the stupid helmet he was wearing. The guy had gone on a crime spree in some kind of ferris-wheel car, only for Spider-Man to send the thing toppling into the Hudson River. Fred was honestly surprised to see him, although thinking about it, who else would be stupid enough to team up with Mirage and Leap-Frog. <br/><br/>The two charged towards them, evidently looking for blood. Before they could get near however they were hit by a wall of water. The wave knocked them to the floor, taking out a few more tables of now pissed-off criminals in the process. As the two slid about on the floor, they were surprised to find the water drawing back and erupting into the shape of a giant fist. Big Wheel’s scream faded abruptly as the watery fist engulphed him, his suit sparking slightly after contacting the surge of water. It was then that the water seemed to shift once more, taking the form of Fred’s “friend” Morris Bench, AKA Hydro-Man. The watery man gave Fred a smile, and was about to speak before a glass came flying towards him. It shattered across his back, causing him to fall forward in pain. The criminal whom had frown it charged after it, leaping at Morris, only to find himself submerged in the man’s liquid body. <br/><br/>Leap-Frog had managed to avoid Morris’ hit, with him instead propelling himself towards the spot where Fred was stood, his mechanical boots churning as he did so. Luckily Fred was ready for him. He rolled out of the way to the left onto the floor, narrowly avoiding the attack. <br/><br/>Moving frantically across the floor, he made a grab for his boomerang which had landed a metre or two away from where it had struck Mirage. Unfortunately it was the only weapon Fred had on him right now, given that the rest of his equipment, as well as his costume, was back at his apartment. The same could be said for Herman Schultz, AKA Shocker, who was currently punching his way towards Speed Demon, whom was speedily trying to deal with the men he had crashed into. Fred had assumed that the Shocker would be useless without his gear, and luckily that wasn’t the case. It would seem that his last encounter with Spider-Man had hardened the man even more than Fred had expected. <br/><br/>Now wasn’t the time to think about that however, as Leap-Frog was soon upon Fred once more. He towered above Boomerang, stomping his “Frog Boots” towards him. The mechanized boots thudded loudly against the floor every time he missed, displaying to Fred exactly what they were capable of. He really didn’t want to get hit by one of those bad boys. Boomerang in hand, he swung forward, slicing Leap-Frog’s leg. The blade cut deep, causing Frogman to wail loudly in agony. As he began to fall forward, Boomerang grabbed an empty glass from a table above him and smashed it wildly into Leap-Frog’s head. <br/><br/>The lack of movement told Fred that Leap-Frog was down for the count, giving him the opportunity to get himself onto his feet. From here he glance up at the brawl unfolding before him. At the centre of the fight was Hippo; roaring loudly as per usual and dealing some heavy damage to all that neared him. He wasn’t the only one however that seemed to be doing well; Hydro-Man had risen high above his opponents, the lower half of his body currently made up of a tower of water. He swung his arms about below him, converting his fists into balls of condensed water as they hit people. To his right was Speed Demon, who whizzed about from thug to thug in a blur. His punches were fast, causing his combatants to not even be able to land a single blow on him. All the while he laughed manically, mocking his targets. Finally there was Shocker, who again seemed to be doing surprising well despite lacking his quilted costume and equipment. He tore through criminal after criminal, his fists now dripping slightly in bloody. <br/><br/>Fred was extremely impressed. Who knew his little crew could be this useful?<br/><br/>A sound from his right caught his attention however. It would seem that Desmond had finally stated to stir after Fred had hit him several minutes ago. <br/><br/>“You’re… you’re an asshole Boomerang…”<br/><br/>The man’s eyes widened as Fred leant down towards him, with Mirage catching sight of the bloody boomerang that Fred currently had twirling between his fingers. The look on his face was enough to cause Fred to chuckle slightly. He moved his arm back slightly, preparing to throw it. This in turn simply caused Mirage to squeal slightly in fear. However instead of throwing it, Fred slowed his arm as he brought it forward, simply tapping the boomerang against Mirage’s forehead through the hole he had on his mask. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Mate, you just keep that thought in mind when you watch me slice through the ligaments in the knee of your friend Hippo ova’ there. Okay?</font>”<br/><br/>As Mirage continued to whimper, Boomerang rose back to his feet. His eyes locked onto Hippo ahead of him, who was still working his muscular magic in the centre of the bar fight. Smiling, he gave his Boomerang one last twirl in his hand, before charging forward into the fray. </div>"

While he had accounted for Ross to refuse his offer the sheer arrogance and zealotry that the human solder had displayed had reminded Loki far to much of some of his former <span class=""bb-i"">peers</span> from back in the day; Those that had always thought the worst of him and made damn sure he knew how much they hated him and everything that he stood for. They had paid in the end and Ross would be no exception, even if it might take a while for all the pieces to be in place to set things in motion. <br/><br/>The show in question was actually a program dedicated telling the story of various creations of the industrial era told in a story alongside the writings and events of those involved. Very few people knew it, but Loki couldn't help but admire the industrial era; It was a age of great chaos were the winds of fortune both foul and fair could catch the sails of anyone brave enough to step up and try to chase their visions for the world around them. The fact that it was on the tail end of the industrial era that he had been released and saved from his torment only added to his fondness for the age and he couldn't help but lament the fact that he had missed out on being there. How thought provoking it would have been to have walked the streets of London beside John Snow and discussing the merits of his theories on water born contagions... alas it was not to be.<br/><br/>When the call come in, Loki sighed as he answered the call from the newest version of Captain America. After letting the man say what he needed to say, Loki simply replied ""<font color=""#00a651"">I wasn't aware that there was a training exercise going on. I'll be there soon.</font>"" before going back to watching his show once the call was over. There was only a minute or two left anyway and despite the fact that he could have been with the Captain that very second if he so desired that quip about the puff of green smoke made Loki decide that the training exercise could wait a minute or two. It was only after the credits of the show started to roll that Loki got up, dusted himself off, made himself invisible and then teleported towards his desired destination. <br/>.......................................................<br/><br/>Those who were already at the training area and fighting would have had a hard time missing the loud bang and the flash of light that was the arrival of Loki, green smoke falling off his form to pool at his feet as he was already in a combat stance, looking around and trying to get a idea of what the situation was and who was fighting whom; The fact that he had appeared between the duo of the giant man and the teenage girl that had fought against the hulk and their currently unnamed opponent would no doubt make it a little bit harder to miss him. Interestingly, Loki had popped into existence facing the girl and the giant man, his back turned to the third party.  <br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/gowi"">@Gowi</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/facepunch"">@FacePunch</a> <br/><br/> </div>"

While the ACT or SAT were out of the way, there were still college applications to fill out and submit, the stress about financial aid or if he or she would ever be accepted in the first place.  Carol’s family was in this weird limbo: they were not wealthy enough to support both Carol and her younger brother at the same time, but they were not poor enough that they could rely entirely on government assistance.  And even if they were, Joseph Danvers Sr. was too proud to ever consider the latter option.  Even with the potential of the merit based scholarship that Carol could earn with both her grades and her standardized test scores, the plan was always to send her little brother to college.<br/><br/>	Carol was fuming over her father’s decision.  She was the obvious choice to send to college.  It probably would cost less for her to go to college than her brother, especially with any scholarships that she might earn.  But Carol would not allow her father to dampen her dreams of college and reaching the stars.  If her father was not going to support her, Carol was determined to find some other way.<br/><br/>	Periodically, the United States military would show up at high schoolers nationwide in order to promote the enlistment of the young, bright minds of the current generation.  By offering means of covering the costs of a collegiate education, the military might seem like the only other option for those who are not fortunate enough to be able to afford college on their own or with the help of their parents.  One school day, the Air Force visited Carol’s school.  Since she knew that the first ‘a’ in NASA stood for Aeronautics, Carol hoped that the Air Force might give her an edge in pursing her dreams about space.  Plus, what could be better for being rebellious against a girl’s father than to sign up for the military, especially a father with an outdated view of what a woman’s role in the household.<br/><br/>	After Carol took a handful of information pamphlets from the Air Force table, she began walking away towards her next class when suddenly a blond haired man in a dark suit approached her.  Any sane person would at first have wondered how anyone at the front desk of the school could have let someone like this man into the school.  However, the man visibly had a ‘visitor’ pass clipped to his sports jacket.  In his hands he held a couple more flyers and pamphlets for the Air Force.<br/><br/>	“Ma’am, I believe you dropped these.”  The blond haired man politely commented as he handed the pieces of paper to Carol.<br/><br/>	“Thanks.  They must have fell without me noticing.”  Carol responded as she looked at the mess that she was already carrying.  It was entirely plausible that some of the papers had fell from her hands.<br/><br/>	However, almost as soon as he had appeared, the mysterious man began walking towards the entrance to the school, no doubt intending to hand in the “visitor” badge and leave.  This encounter did not even cross Carol’s mind until she got home and began looking through all the different handouts and flyers that she had received from the Air Force table.  However, in that stack of paper, Carol discovered a small business card that the abbreviation S.W.O.R.D. printed on it, while the reverse side had a telephone number printed on it and the word ‘Damocles’ written in blue ink just below the list of ten numbers.<br/><br/>	For a moment, Carol sat on her bed, staring at the card.  She wondered whether that man slipped the card in with sheets of paper that he had picked up when he handed them back to her.  Then, against her better judgement, Carol decided to try to call the number.  What was the worst that could happen other than the FBI or CIA bursting into her house?  Wasn’t like weirder things haven’t already happened to her.<br/><br/>	After listening to some elevator music as she waited for her call to be answered, Carol suddenly heard a voice on the other side of the line.  Her heart was beating since there was not going back if Carol said anything.<br/><br/>	“Thank you for calling the United States Space Command?  How may I help you?”  The woman greeted Carol with a cheerful voice, something that one would not expect to hear from any type of customer service, let alone one attached to the government.  However, Carol sensed that something was fishy about this.  Didn’t USSPACECOM merge together with the United States Strategic Command almost a decade ago?<br/><br/>	“Um…”  Carol hesitated, not entirely sure that she should be doing this, “My name is Carol Danvers and today at school I received this business card that has the abbreviation S.W.O.R.D. written on it.  Your number was also printed on the back.  I just wanted to know what this all was about.”<br/><br/>	There was a short pause as Carol could hear the person on the other side of the line shuffling through some papers and the clicks of the computer keyboard as she typed.<br/><br/>	“And what is your password?”  The woman then asked, almost as if she expected Carol to know what she was talking about.<br/><br/>	“Password?”<br/><br/>	“Yes, what is your password?”  The woman repeated.<br/><br/>	“Um…”  Carol stalled as she looked at the card.  She was at loss for what the woman wanted.  What password?  Since the handwritten word on the back of the card was the only thing she had to go on, she decided to try it.  “Damacles?”<br/><br/>	“Thank you for your verification, Ms. Danvers.  Do you have a pen and paper at hand so that you can write down our<br/>address?”</div>"

Honestly, besides <span class=""bb-i"">maybe</span> (and that is a big maybe) half-days, this was the easiest day of the school year.  You would first go to a designated classroom, which were divided up by last name, so that you could get your class schedule and your locker combination.  Then you would sit through short, 20-30 minute introductions to each class that were presented by that class’ teacher.  By the end of each class period, each student would have a syllabus, a textbook, and an expectation on how the class would turn out.  And then, everyone went home for the day, until the next day, when <span class=""bb-b"">real</span> first day of classes began.<br/><br/>	Peter fiddled with the his locker padlock.  Yet another number that he was going to have to devote to memory.  He opened up the locker door and began swapping his books between his backpack and the locker.  Things would be interesting this semester, academically speaking, since he was taking two AP courses.  Last school year, he only had AP European history plus a handful of honors classes.  So far, Peter had found a pretty good balance between school time and ‘Spidey’ time so that his GPA did not suffer very much.  He hoped that adding one additional AP class would not be too much of a difficulty spike.<br/><br/>	“Hey, Pete.  How did the first day of class treat you?”  Harry Osborn asked Peter, poking him in the rips with his elbow.  Even though their families were almost as far apart as they could have been in respect to their financial situation, Peter and Harry had been best friends for almost as long as any of them could remember.  His father, Norman Osborn, was an important man of business and science.  Did he undertake in some shady business?  Of course.  Peter even had to stop some of Norman’s schemes every now and again whenever they went out of hand.  But he was still Harry’s father.  Plus, he wasn’t like the other animal-themed villains that Peter seem to keep running into.   He cannot just punch his way to victory over Norman.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“It was fine.”</font>  Peter responded, shrugging his shoulders.<br/><br/>	“Fine?”  Harry almost mockingly exaggerated the concern in his voice, “School just being ‘fine’ to Peter Parker, Midtown High’s boy genius?  Do we need to make a quick stop at the nurse’s office before going home?”  If Peter did not know better, he could have mistaken that last comment as Harry’s expression of frustration about how his dad would hound him because Harry was an underachiever at school.  If it was not for Peter’s help, Harry might not have made it through the honors courses that his dad forced him to take.  Peter would not have been surprised if Norman wished that his son was more like Peter.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Well, you know, it’s not the same without…”</font>  Peter trailed off from his train of thought.  However, without even finishing his sentence, Harry knew what he meant.  Losing someone close to you can take a great toll on anyone.  First Uncle Ben, then it was Gwen, Peter’s love of his life.  Somethings are just harder to let go of.<br/><br/>	“I know, Pete.  But I’m sure that Gwen wouldn’t want you to feel miserable for the rest of your life.  She would want you to be happy.”<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Yeah, but sometimes it's hard to break old habits.”</font><br/><br/>	After Peter had grabbed the books he needed to take home, Peter and Harry began to head out.  On their way out, they saw a wall flyer that was advertising the Fall Formal.<br/><br/>	“They’re already promoting that dance?  I thought that it was at least a month away?”  Harry asked aloud.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“They’re doing a Christmas on us by advertising that dance earlier and earlier each school year.”</font>  Peter joked with Harry.  After briefly discussing how things just felt strange without Gwen around, they needed something to lighten up the mood.<br/><br/>	“Oh, that reminds me, how did that blind date that your aunt set you up on?  You didn’t suffer too much, I hope.”  Harry changed the subject when the Fall Formal somehow made him remember the Peter’s blind date with Mary Jane.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“Actually, exponentially better than I expected.  I definitely underestimated Aunt May’s ability to pick out potential dates.  Not that I really <span class=""bb-b"">want</span> her to arrange my marriage, but at least things didn’t go as badly as I thought they would.”</font><br/><br/>	“And you were leaving me in the dark this whole time?  Spill the beans, Pete!”  Harry desperately begged his friend.<br/><br/> <font color=""#ed1c24"">“I’ll text you the details.  Don’t fret, Harry.  But I gotta run.  If I’m late getting to the Bugle, Jolly Jameson might have a cow.”</font></div>"

It seemed his grudge against Banner was due to his daughter’s involvement with the scientist. She could appreciate why he was the way he was over The Hulk. But Bruce and Hulk were two different entities. Just as she was. She was one in the same with Sigyn, the Norse Goddess of Fidelity. Little by little her past life memories slowly filtered through. Ross had to understand that Banner could not <span class=""bb-i"">control</span> the Hulk. <br/><br/>Victoria turned to Maria upon entering her corner section desk area that she used as a dedicated workspace before she became the Valkyrie. Back when she was your normal run of the mill SHIELD agent without any special super powers. Ah…the good old days when things were not so complicated. Now, she had Ross lording it over her in attempts at using her as a type of “Hulkbuster”; a renegade Asgardian back from her old life running about, her past life husband trying to make a new life for himself and to make amends…sort of. She would give anything for a normal life but fate dealt her another cruel hand. Perhaps this time she would find <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> happiness before the next Ragnarok. <br/><br/>Maria peered over Victoria’s shoulder to view the monitor. “Why are you so interested in Ross?”  She inquired of her recovered comrade. Agent Parrington rose from her seat, adorning the usual black catsuit like leather SHIELD uniform the women wore. It accented their feminine curves rather well. Victoria was a natural Asgardian beauty with eyes as bright as the stars themselves. <br/><br/>“I merely want to <span class=""bb-i"">understand</span> his obsession with Banner. Misunderstandings are often the root cause of these more recent skirmishes. Take Tarene and Loki for instance...” Valkyrie replied with a somewhat heavy heart. Her soul reached out for the poor misunderstood Tarene. Someone she had much in common with – losing her home, family and everything to Loki. Ross blamed Banner for everything. Ross blamed her for allowing The Hulk to get away. As if she had any chance of stopping the green tank. She wasn’t about to argue with someone who could squash her like an Ant-(wo)man. <br/><br/>Maria nodded. “I came to tell you that Wilson is expecting you in the training room.” Victoria had gotten used to Sam’s beckoned call. And most of the time she answered. Because she looked up to him, she respected him. He taught her how to handle her new found wings. Something that was now, very precious to her. Victoria had let the time run away with her as she noted the clock reading on her computer screen. “…Truth be told…I was going to hand in my resignation earlier but……” She trailed off thinking back to the Enchantress’s proposal. Something seemed off about the very idea. She half wondered if Amora would continue to harass her until she conceded. <br/><br/>Maria was taken aback then. “But why? You’re the senior agent on the Avengers team. Cap’s relying on your SHIELD discipline and loyalty.” <br/>Valkyrie shook her head. “I saw the other enlisted team members; he doesn’t need me.”<br/><br/>“If you saw who they were going up against right now…you’d change your mind…” Maria brought up the camera feed to the training room. Victoria frowned slightly. “Hyperion.” Or Agent Milton. Someone she knew within SHIELD. She hadn't the pleasure of working with him directly before.<br/>After watching the beatings Hyperion dished out, a faint smirk appeared on the corners of Valkyrie’s mouth. She could not escape the thrill she felt when using her Asgardian might. Even when “rescuing” the Hulk, when going up against giant serpents and Amora. Although terrible and drastic such events as they were, she could forget about her personal struggles for just a little while. Perhaps going a few rounds with the superhuman, ne-high invincible alien would provide her an escape from Amora and Ross. <br/><br/>“Alright. Let’s do this.” Agent Parrington gave Agent Hill a mischievous smirk. She then exited the offices and made her way swiftly to the training room.<br/><br/>There she entered just as the green smoke dissipated to reveal Loki. She could have let the sight of him enrage her. But he was not the enemy. Not today. Instead she flashed him a playful grin as she walked into the room with an air of grace about her. Her SHIELD uniform glowed with a white aura and transformed into the full glimmer of <a href=""https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-60tqZ1hvwMY/U9J6PTTPHUI/AAAAAAAABAQ/K8nonVTV5hE/s1600/c.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Asgardian golden armour</a> around her arms, chest and legs and her trusty sword Dragonfang in one hand and her tall heater shield in the other. Complete with winged circlet across her forehead. <br/><br/>“Two Asgardians walk into a bar…...” She walked to under near Chavez and acknowledged her with a nod. “With a time travelling superwoman and a gi-ant.” She readied herself in a defensive stance, bringing her shield up in front of her body. “Needless to say, the bar did not survive…” She flicked her long wavy brunette hair over her shoulder and pointed Dragonfang toward the power house that was Hyperion. <br/><br/>“You may be a God among men, my friend. But I was a Goddess once. And I know how easily Gods can fall.” She looked over to Loki, Hank and America in turn. They needed to work as a team, if they were to win this. “Never go for the obvious kill.” She reminded her team mates. <br/><br/>Her eyes looked Agent Milton up and down with a glint of rapture behind her eyes. She was going to enjoy this challenge. A pattern began to emerge here - she could not get away from men who wanted to hurt her. Perhaps there was still one out there who would not want to.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">“Together.” </span> She let her beautiful white feathered wings sprout forth from her back and her body lifted off the ground as she propelled herself toward the invulnerable target. A whirlwind vortex emerged from her wake. She relied on Loki's element of surprise in the heat of battle, he was the only one of the team she had directly witnessed in action thus far, she could at least read his movements.  </div>"

A figure, shrouded by both the darkness of the night and the torrents of rain, climbed up the side of the building and sneaked up to these windows.  This thief placed a device that almost seemed like a mathematical compass.  After turning the knob on the device until there was a click, the robber pulled off the equipment off the window, resulting in a cleanly cut hole that could allow a single person to comfortably fit through it.  Once a line of rope was firmly attached to the roof, the masked figure descended into the dark warehouse.<br/><br/>	Crates filled the room.  It was no secret that SIlvermane was not getting any younger as each day passed.  Therefore, the leader of one of the Maggia crime families had used his ill-gotten fortune to find some means of extending his life, if not even to make him immortal.  Herbert Landon’s research was one attempt to achieve this ever-youthfulness.  However, due to the intervention of Spider-Man and the X-Men, along with Landon’s ulterior against mutants, this opportunity dried up before Silvermane could reap any rewards from it.  However, this Maggia crime lord was not stupid enough to keep all his eggs in one basket.  This warehouse, along with others spaced out within his criminal territory, housed other possible alternatives.<br/><br/>	After carefully searching the room for a few minutes, the figure finally found the crate that he, or she, was looking for.  Taking a crowbar, the thief pulled open the top off the wooden crate, which created an echoing crackle.  However, since there were not any personnel around at this time of night, no one could hear the noise.  Even if someone did hear what the robber was doing, that guard would have arrived too late in that room to do any good.  <br/><br/>From the bottom of the crate, the figure pulled out an orange and yellow, egg-shaped gem that almost fit perfectly in the palm of the thief’s hand.  After stashing the valuable item inside a small, protective bag, the thief returned to the robe which was used to safely land on the floor of the warehouse.  Once the robber was back on the roof of the building, this individual pulled out a small handheld communication device.<br/><br/>“Professor, I have retrieved the stone.”  The thief spoke into the device with a feminine voice, “I will return to base as soon as possible.”<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">In a Hospital Elsewhere</div></span><br/>	Herbert Landon laid in his hospital bed.  Half of his body, which was mutated by the chemical that he had designed to destroy mutants, was covered with bandages.  Due to the experimental nature of these chemicals, the doctors were at lost for how they could help this man of business and science.  All they could do was ease the pain and allow his ‘injured’ side to heal.<br/><br/>	However, his body was not the only part of Landon that was hurting.  His ego was, too.  After his accident and the incident involving it, Roxxon, in an attempt to distance themselves from this mess, discontinued Landon’s research and fired him.  His credentials as both a scientist and a businessman were ruined in one fell swoop.  Scarred beyond repair, Landon had lost all of his dreams in a single day.<br/><br/>	Landon heard the click of his hospital room’s door.  Peering over, he saw a man wearing a white, doctor’s coat, who had messy brown hair and a mustache.<br/><br/>	“I thought you doctors did not have any clue on how to cure.”  Landon, as he rolled over away from the man, chided the him, assuming that he was just another doctor who was attempting to help him.<br/><br/>	“I’m not <span class=""bb-b"">that</span> type of doctor.”  The man responded to the injured and mutated man.  “I have a proposition for you, Mr. Landon.”<br/><br/>	“And who are you?”<br/><br/>	“My name is Doctor Miles Warren.  Specialty, genetics.  I have formed a little, well, social circle of like-minded scientists and bright minds.”  Miles Warren pulled out a small business card that had ‘Intelligencia’ printed on its front, flashed the card in front of Landon, and then placed it on the side table next to Landon’s bed.  “It’s a little group where we collaboration with one another so that we can reach achievements that none of us could have ever imagined doing alone.”<br/><br/>	Miles Warren then turned to leave.  However, before he exited the hospital room, he turned back towards Landon to get one last word in.  “Why don’t you consider this offer while you get better.  Then, once you’re out of here, just let me know if you’re in.”<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Please Red"" type=""button"">Please Red [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">Spider-Man will return in Season 2</div></span></div></div></div>"

Behind him the rest of his motley “crew” followed, all of which looked worse for wear. That wasn’t all too surprising considering the brawl that they had just walked away from after all. That the excessive amount of alcohol they had just finished drinking. This was apart from Speed Demon however, who continued forward with a smile on a face a recently stolen hot dog in his hand. <br/><br/>Fred was about to monologue further about the hardships of this evening when Herman spoke up.<br/><br/>“I can’t believe that we actually won that fight!” He gave a short cheer as he spoke, although it was short-lived due to him wincing in pain from his badly swollen lips.<br/><br/>“I can’t believe that no one’s vomited yet” James stated, his eyes flickering intensely between them. <br/><br/>All in all, Herman did have a good point. It had been a good fight, and of course the best team came out victorious. After Fred had introduced the sharp end of his trusty boomerang to the back of Hippo’s knees, the big guy had fallen fast. After that, the rest of the losers in that place had gone done easy. It would seem that Big Wheel wasn’t all that useful without that giant ferris wheel car of his. Although truth be told, he was never really useful with it either. The rest of the bar’s drunken patrons followed suit, leaving the floor in a mess of blood, booze, bodies and broken bar stools. So obviously Deke, the barkeep, wasn’t all too happy.<br/><br/>Despite its abrupt end due to them getting kicked out, it had honestly been a good night. The thought of it caused a grin to spread across Fred’s drunken face. <br/><br/>“What the…<sub>hic</sub> are you smiling at?” Morris inquired, his speech beginning to slur slightly. <br/><br/>At that Fred began to stop, deciding to enlighten them all on his thoughts. He turned on the spot and faced them, his grin widening. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Well mate, I just realized that maybe you guys really do have what it takes to complete this heist after all!</font>” <br/><br/>At the word heist everyone simultaneously groaned. <br/><br/>“What the hell is it with you and this heist?!”<br/><br/>“We just want to…<sub>hic</sub> h-have a nice night,”<br/><br/>“What the hell does the Owl have that’s worth stealing anyway?”<br/><br/>Fred rolled his eyes at the all the questions that his peers threw at him. The ungrateful bastards! After everything he’d done for them? He was about to just scoff and leave it for another time, when that final question met his ears. What did the Owl have? The mere thought of it made Fred smirk. And the mere thought of what they’d make of it made Fred laugh aloud slightly. After a couple more blank looks and complaints, he decided to tell them, like the loyal boss he was.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">Boys, I happen to know that ol’ Owly happens to own a painting.</font>”<br/><br/>“A painting?” Herman laughed loudly. “Why the fuc-“<br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">A painting of Doctor Doom himself.</font>” Fred continued, cutting him off. “<font color=""#a187be"">Without his mask.</font>”<br/><br/>Silence filled the New York street as the words left his mouth. The three of them stared at their leader in shock, their eyes and mouths widening. <br/><br/>“<font color=""#a187be"">So what do you say, mates?</font>” Fred followed up, gesturing at them encouragingly. <br/><br/>At that remark, Herman balled over, hands on his knees, vomiting loudly onto the street floor. <br/><br/>“Now there’s the vomit!” Speed Demon stated cheerfully as he raised his phone to take a picture.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Boomerang will return in All-Star Marvel Season 2</span></div></div>"

Not an impossible feat, especially considering they were low-powered non-lethal attacks. Yet common men capable of such speed and agility were few and far between. The incident brought up fond memories of a particular gladiator Zhib-Ran had done battle with on the coliseums of Arie in the Shi'ar Galaxy. The youth had coped with the eye beams for a time; that is, before Hyperion crushed the boy's skull between his fingers. <span class=""bb-i"">Ah, the good old days.</span> The alien reminisced momentarily. Hyperion brought his attention back to the moment at hand and responded to Ant-Man's comment with as much snark as he could muster. ""What can I say? I appreciate a challenge."" It was then that Hyperion made the mistake of turning his back on his enemy. This mere mortal was far more powerful than he appeared. Zhib-Ran had mistakenly assumed Miss America to be the greater threat between the two of them. That hypothesis turned out to be incorrect as a fist the size of a grown man smashed into the alien's exposed back. <br/><br/>Hyperion lay sprawled across the cold training room floor for less than a moment. He sprung to his feet with an unexpected amount of acrobatic skill and agility, added by his natural ability of flight. The human's atrocious puns were teetering on infuriating, having lost their boyish charm quite awhile ago. Zhib-Ran allowed his opponents a brief moment of respite to recuperate and strategize. During that time, Zhib looked over the pair and examined their own weaknesses, putting his enhanced senses and X-ray vision to good use. The giant appeared to share many of the same weak points on a human being but were now larger and more durable. A single punch with sufficient force to the trachea and maybe a followup to the diaphragm would rob the brilliant scientist manchild of his oxygen. Chavez was a different story. Everything about her vitals were off. They were similar enough to fool most of this planet's primitive technology, but Hyperion acute vision and hearing allowed him to pick up on the subtle differences between her and other earthlings. That could be explained by her extra-dimensional origins. What Zhib-Ran was wondering was if certain nerve attacks would be more or less effective due to these biological differences.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">There's only one way to find out.</span> Milton supposed.<br/><br/>The hair on the back of the conqueror's neck stood on end as a loud bang and a flash of light announced a shift in the battle. There Loki, the Trickster God, stood facing away from him. If Loki were any other foe, Hyperion would've taken the opportunity to strike while his attention was averted. But a Norse God of tricks was not to be dealt with conventionally.<br/><br/>The final challenger approached from the training room's front entrance. Agent Parrington. The Valkyrie. She was paraded as one of SHIELD's most powerful agents. Zhib-Ran had familiarized himself with her exploits and abilities, but had yet to officially meet the woman. He had to admit, she looked taller in the video logs. The woman clothed herself in her golden Asgardian armor and gave the team a joke and a brief pep talk before leading the charge. <span class=""bb-i"">This certainly makes things interesting.</span><br/><br/>Without any warning, Hyperion vanished from the Avengers' sight. He reappeared a milisecond later behind them, firing off a pair of supersonic beams of concussive energy from his eyes into Giant-Man's back. He followed up the attack with a speed blitz toward America; his end goal being to grab her and slam her against the far wall. Finally, Zhib-Ran placed his back against the wall and finished with a thunderclap, hoping to take out an invisible Loki. Afterwards, he would turn his attention to Valkyrie. The string of brutally efficient attacks hadn't accounted for her arrival and could be interrupted and potentially countered, should the Avengers prove to be better than Hyperion first thought.

Chosen from a young age, she set herself apart among the others in Asgard, rose through the ranks, fought alongside Sif and Thor and Fandral and Hogun and Volstag. She'd punched Loki in the face on more than one occasion and then there'd been Ragnarok ... thats where things went pear-shaped. She survived, sifting through the charred remnants of Asgard. Exploring Vanaheim, Muspleheim, Jotunheim, back to Asgard, Alfheim, back to Asgard again ... Then she'd wound up on Midgard, drawn to it somehow, and it was Mjolnir that had called her. Mjolnir had pulled her to the alien realm and whispered to her. <span class=""bb-i"">""Lift me Tarene. Claim me and wield my power to crush those who seek to harm this realm and all others""</span>. <br/>...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Then suddenly a ghost from mine own past appeared ... the God of Lies, Loki, Son of Laufey of Jotunheim ... he claimed he was reformed, that he wouldst protect this realm ... but I've seen him destroy Asgard with mine own eyes, he tore the realm asunder ... he used the Bifrost to try destroy Jotunheim ... I wouldst not let him claim this realm and yet-""</span>. And yet it was the Midgardian's who claimed he was their champion and that she was their enemy. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""The blood of good men, innocent men, stains mine own hands but that is the way of war is it not? If a few thousand lives were all it took to save Asgard, wouldst I not have made that same choice again? Ist that not what the Odinson would have willed? To save Asgard- Sif and Volstagg, Hogun, Fandral, Odin, Thor- All of them.""</span> <br/><br/>Loki couldn't truly be reformed ... could he? What if Midgard was his? His kingdom? And it was the Midgardian's who had aided him in destroying Asgard? Suddenly her head ached, and it wasn't from the alcohol, not entirely, though it was finally kicking in, making her pleasantly tipsy. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Thine beer is more like the piss of a Bilgesnipe, yellow and stinking""</span> she complained, it was far easier to hate the Midgardian piss-beer than it was figuring out what Loki was now. Was he true or was this another one of his many, many lies and crimes? <br/><br/>Suddenly a pain shot through her, lancing through her chest like a bolt of lightning and it felt like it was tearing pieces away, ripping out important cells and scratching on her ribs as it clawed its way out. A caged animal ripping itself out of her. She shrieked and blacked out from the pain but for a brief moment, before she lost consciousness, she knew she'd lost something far more important that her senses. <br/><br/>She'd lost Mjolnir. <br/></div>"

Even when he was able to get off an arrow after he returned to a kneeling position, the projectile seemed to do nothing to Simon Williams.  No matter how many different things they tried, nothing harmed the man who was irradiated with ionic energy.  He seemed as if he was indestructible.<br/> <br/>	“So, what’s the plan, Batman?”  Hawkeye joked about how the Rider was a pastiche of the fictional caped crusader.<br/> <br/>	“We are on the verge of being exterminated by a man of pure ionic energy and you retort to jokes and buffoonery?”<br/> <br/>	“Hey, how else are we supposed to keep us from soiling ourselves?”  Hawkeye pulled out another arrow and let it fly.  As the arrow darted towards Simon Williams, it began emitting an ear-piercing scream that was directed in front of the projectile, a weapon designed for desperate crowd control.   Although at first it seemed as if it did not affect the man composed of iconic energy, an astute eye could have seen that the ionic energy had begun to destabilizing.<br/> <br/>	“It’s called manning up.”  The Rider retorted after he recovered from the ear ache that Hawkeye’s screeching arrow caused, even though the bulk of the sound had been siphoned away from the archer and those around him.<br/> <br/>	“Yeah, and what does that make her?”  Hawkeye pointed to Mockingbird.  The Rider just gave the purple-clad archer a glare after hearing this accusation of sexism.  However, instead of making a counter-response, the black-caped crime fighter retrieved several spherical devices from his belt and smashed them against the ground, causing a cloud of smoke to rise up around him and the surrounding area.<br/> <br/>	“Not Batman my ass.”  Hawkeye mumbled under his breath.<br/> <br/>	“You know, he probably heard that.”  Mockingbird shook her head at her partner, hoping that he would not tick off the only help that they had at their disposal.<br/> <br/>	“Hey, it’s not my fault that there’s an uncanny resemblance!”  Once the smokescreen had dispersed, Hawkeye and Mockingbird found themselves in a quite different situation.  The ionic energy that gave Simon Williams his powers had now grown unstable.  His body was twisting and turning in ways that no human body should have been.  The sight was so bizarre and uncanny that Hawkeye, Mockingbird, and even the Rider could only stand where they were and watch.<br/><br/>	“What’s happening to me?”  Simon Williams shouted as he fell to his knees in pain.  His body continue to twist and turn until his body seemed to have been torn asunder.  Even after his body had separated, they could still hear the man’s screams of pain until the ionic energy, along with his body, had dispersed into the air.<br/><br/>	“Okay, what the hell just happened?”  Hawkeye asked aloud, not quite expecting an answer.</div>"

We welcome you to a unique narrative opportunity to take any Marvel character character and re-imagine them in a way that makes them pleasurable for you to write unique and original stories with. In this universe no events in the main Marvel comics continuity are considered canon. It is entirely contained within the forum and within your imagination. Am I over-egging it? Perhaps. It's still pretty cool to see.<br/><br/>Whether you're one for emotional drama or a sucker for physical trauma, the vast range of characters available could fit any genre or any purpose you could reasonably imagine. Is your interest piqued by a fresh interpretation of <span class=""bb-i"">Bruce Banner</span> that you really wanna try out? Own it. Love Thor but hate that darned old hammer? Sling it. Think that The Whizzer is in need of a drastic revival? That's good too. No-one is off limits here. Not even Doop. As long as they have appeared in a canonical Marvel tale on either the page or the screen they're free for refurbishment. Here, the MARVEL UNIVERSE is yours to mold.<br/><br/>[This is a sandbox game.]<br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">||The Present Day:||</div></div>The year is 2012 and the world can never change back to how it was. Two years ago, uncanny individuals began to surface, performing many marvelous deeds. Nevertheless, due to their lack of exposure in the media, these super-humans were only thought as rumors and urban myths. But as a year came and went, these sightings of super-humans soared until the point when their existence was no longer questioned. In an age of rationalism and science, the world was bewildered by these individuals. What was once thought a things of legend were now real: men flying unaided by humanity's ingenuity, lifting inhumanly heavy weights, and even defying the established laws of nature.<br/><br/>At the same time as the super-humans arose, a secret government agent stepped out of the shadows in order to deal with the chaos caused by the emergence of the super-human. This organization is the <span class=""bb-b"">Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division</span>, or S.H.I.E.L.D. for short. Not only was it their task to monitor all super-human activity, but also to combat any organization that threatened the existence of the world. No one outside the organization knows how long S.H.I.E.L.D. has been operating. Whether they just recently formed or had been monitoring the situation for years, everyone knew that they were here to stay.<br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">||The Discovery of Mutants:||</div></div>While the term ""Mutant"" was only recently coined for those individuals who possessed the X-gene, mutants have existed for decades. Most incidents involving mutants happened on the local level of society and therefore were usually seen as isolated events. Many mutants, who appeared normal on the outside, could pass are regular humans, while those who could not pass as a normal human went into hiding in fear of being labeled a demon. Even with the occasional uncanny event, the majority of humanity never connected the dots between these occurrences.<br/><br/>However, as the decades rolled, the mutant population kept growing and growing, which meant is became more difficult for mutants to remain under the radar. However, in the 80's, a group of powerful mutants, including Charles Xavier, Erik Lensherr, and Raven Darkholme, formed a group, called the Brotherhood, swearing to keep mutantkind hidden from the rest of the world, lest humanity, threatened by the potential power of the mutants, launch a preemptive strike against their evolved brethren. For a decade, this alliance successfully prevented the general public from learning the truth about mutants. However, the leadership of the Brotherhood eventually collapsed as they had differing ideologies concerning human-mutant relations. Therefore, the Brotherhood was dissolved and the mutants went their separate ways. As a result of this, Charles Xavier founded the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning by using his family inheritance to fund the project, while Erik, now referring to himself as <span class=""bb-i"">Magneto</span>, reformed the Brotherhood of Mutants, binding his time until it was the right moment for mutantkind to strike back.<br/><br/>Through recent genetic research in 2010, it was discovered that not only was the human race still evolving, but that these mutations could give people super-human powers. Once super-humans began to appear on the national stage, people began to ask whether this 'X-gene' was the cause of the surge of super-humans, or was this a separate event? Despite the answer to that question, the results from this research could finally explain occurrences in the past that could not be explained in the past.<br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">||The Current Situation:||</div></div>The world is in its second year of fully knowing the existence of super-humans. What happens next is up to you, the players. This Universe is a clean slate. Will the Avengers form? What calamity will cause their formation? And who will comprise of that roster? Who will compose Xavier's X-Men and Magneto's Brotherhood? How will the world treat Mutant-kind? Will they receive them with open arms or will they cast them out in an attempt to preserve humanity? All these questions will be answered by you, the players, as your stories unfold.<br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">||Major Events:||</div></div><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Pre-IC</span>:</div><br/>• <span class=""bb-b"">1942</span> - Captain America, accompanied by a hand selected team of professionals enter WWII, guns blazing. <br/>• <span class=""bb-b"">1980's</span> - The Brotherhood is founded.

Characters can be picked from the main 616 comic continuity, spin-off series (Ultimate, MCU etc.) or from any Marvel movies, cartoons or live-action series. Any applications featuring original characters or characters from other companies (DC/Darkhorse/Image etc) will be dismissed.<br/><br/>• At the start you may only apply for Hero or Walking the Line characters. Villains are available to anyone given a second and third character slot.<br/><br/>• Players will be limited to the use of one Hero character at the start. After three IC posts a second and third slot will be made available to you.<br/><br/>• If you are new to the RPG, your first arc should be your character's introduction arc. While it does not have to be your character's origin story, take this opportunity to flesh out your character(s).<br/><br/>• <span class=""bb-b"">Before starting a game wide event, check with the GM to ensure it will not conflict with ongoing plans. Such events should NOT be your introductory arc.</span><br/><br/>◦  There will be no calling dibs for characters. Every character is available to every player from the start - players cannot lay claim to any character without posting a complete character application. Multiple players may attempt to apply for the same character and all competing applications posted within 24 hours of the first will be considered by the GM, to be judged and selected as they see fit. Any applications after this 24 hour cut-off point will not be considered.<br/><br/>• You are required to post at least once every 28 days (i.e. 4 weeks), although it is preferred for you to post more (once a week is ideal, once every two weeks is fine). If you fail to post altogether (without prior communication through PMs or the OOC thread with a viable explanation) for this time, your character will be released from the roster and be free to be applied for by another player.<br/><br/>•  If you wish, you may then re-apply for the character. If accepted, you will be restricted to the use of one character for a probationary period of two weeks. Consistent posting during this time will re-enable you to pick up a second character. Failure to post during the period however will lead to a full game ban. <br/><br/>• You must post in the IC thread within two weeks of its approval. Failure to do so will enable other players to apply for your character.<br/><br/>•  Player controlled Characters (PCs) may not be killed without permission from the player said character belongs to. However, feel free to brutally murder as many nameless Non-Player Characters (NPCs) as possible within the constraints of your own character.<br/><br/>• Butting into other character's story lines/events without asking permission prior will not be tolerated. It's rude and unnecessary - if you can make a good enough case and communicate with the other members your likely to be given permission. Interaction and politeness need to to go hand in hand if this is to be enjoyable. <br/><br/>•  Legacy Characters/Sidekicks (Red Hulk, Ben Reily, Bucky, Rescue, War Machine etc.) may only be applied for if the player responsible for their traditional 'Mentor' permit it as their existence may go against the vision the pre-established player has for their own character. If accepted, communication between both parties will help to make the experience more enjoyable for both. Exemptions of the rule can occur if no such character yet exists in the roleplay or if the character can be feasibly reimagined without any association with their counterpart. Communication and cooperation is key.<br/><br/>• Any location within the Marvel U (on planet or off) is available to you as a setting for your adventures, so long as it is within your character's means to be there in the first place. Namor is bound to feel at home 10'000 leagues under the sea. Spider-Man? Not so much. Exceptions can be made if the story allows for it.<br/><br/>•  Time-travel is forbidden unless a character's origin demands it (e.g, Kang the Conqueror). In these cases all time travel will have been done with prior to the character's first interaction with a PC.<br/><br/>• Stay in character. Act like them, not as an extension of yourself with neato powers.<br/><br/>•  Don't just play to win. The aim here is to produce fun stories and collaborations, not to conquer the world and enslave it's populous through untempered brute force. By the laws of probability there are bound to be battles your character cannot win. Embrace it.<br/><br/>• Try and be as creative as possible with your character sheets. This process is as much a test of your competency in commanding language as it is showing your ideas for a character. Blatant copy and pasting of other people's work from discarded character sheets, wiki pages or the like will not be tolerated. I will check.<br/><br/>•  Please refrain from having your character perform any random game-changing actions; no one likes waking up to find that a player has had their character destroy the moon, least of all the population of Attilan. Only perform actions that your character can do and would do on paper.<br/><br/>• Respect the GM, and they shall respect unto you. If they ask you to change something, it's in the interests of the game for you to comply.<br/><br/>• The GM reserves the right to expel any member as they see fit if given reason.<br/><br/>• All regular Guild rules apply.</div></div><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Character Sheet template:</div></div><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-b"">Player Name:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character You Wish To Play:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line):</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?):</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do?

All that Peter could remember about his parents was that his father, Richard, was a geneticist and genetic engineer and that his mother, Mary, was a nurse. While Peter was still very young, his parents tragically died in a plane accident. Therefore, the burden fell upon Peter’s aunt and uncle, May and Benjamin Parker, who gave the young Peter all the love that they could. Even when the Parkers struggled to support their nephew financially, they gave the young Peter all the love they had. This was only the first tragedy in Peter’s guilt-ridden life.<br/><br/>Through elementary and middle school, Peter was belittled and bullied since Peter was a book-worm, nerd, and an ‘A’ student. Although his academic studies helped him through this time, thinking that someday he would be all the ‘popular’ kids’ boss, there almost did not seem like there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Not until he first met one of his future best friends: Angelica Jones. She and her widowed father, Bartholomew Jones, moved to Queens from Massachusetts after Angelica’s paternal grandmother passed away. Both being lonely and outcasts, Peter and Angelica quickly became friends. Things looked bright for Peter, or at least that how they seemed until Angelica’s microwave powers began to manifest. With the anti-mutant sentiment, Angelica’s father enrolled her at the <span class=""bb-i"">Xavier Institute of Higher Learning</span>. After a bitter and sad departure, Peter had lost his best friend almost as soon as they became friends.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Birth of Spider-Man"" type=""button"">The Birth of Spider-Man [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Then there was the day Peter gained his powers. Peter was attending a demonstration of the latest findings of Doctor Curtis Connors, an expert on cross-species genetics. During the demonstration, one of the genetically altered spiders escaped from its container on that faithful day and bit Peter, infecting him with a virus that caused Peter to develop his abilities. After suffering a miserable night due to his body trying to cope with the virus that had infected Peter, Peter woke up feeling like a new person.<br/><br/>Now with super-human powers, Peter knew what he had to do with them: earn money for his loving aunt and uncle, who had struggled to support him. It was the least he could do. While Peter was successful early on, having created his ‘iconic’ red and blue costume to conceal his identity, Peter’s cash supply was destroyed by a man who would be a pain in Spider-Man’s backside for years to come: J. Jonah Jameson. After Jameson’s crusade against Spider-Man in the Daily Bugle, Peter was distraught. How was he going to be able to help his aunt and uncle now? In his misery, Peter ignored a bugler while Peter heading home from the studio for the last time. While it seemed insignificant at the time, Peter would later regret that decision. Later that week, Peter’s Uncle Ben was killed when a robber broke into their house. When Peter caught the murderer, he was shocked to the core when he discovered that the murderer was the same man whom Peter failed to stop earlier that week. Shaken by the experience, Peter finally learned the lesson that his Uncle Ben had been trying to teach him: <span class=""bb-i"">With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility</span>.<br/><br/>After he got his powers, but prior to his uncle’s death, Peter finally rallied up the courage to ask his dream crush, Gwen Stacy, out on a date. She was his Penelope. The death of Peter’s uncle just brought the two further together. However, as Peter’s career as Spider-Man began, Peter discovered how much damage his alter-ego had started to inflect on their relationship. Therefore, Peter revealed his secret to the love of his life. And this knowledge was the kiss of death for Gwen, although neither of them knew this at the time.<br/><br/>There was yet another bright spot in the sea of darkness that was Peter’s tragedy life. Peter and Angelica crossed paths again and they would never go separate ways again. The X-Men (in civilian garb) were visiting a science museum as a field trip (since the institute was a school, after all) when suddenly the Juggernaut attacked. After Peter helped the X-Men subdue the Juggernaut, both Peter and Angelica discovered the other’s secret identities. From that day forward, Peter, Angelica, and Angelica’s fellow X-Man, Bobby Drake (a.k.a. Iceman) formed the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>After his first year of fighting petty crocks, Peter thought this super-hero gig would be a piece of cake. Or at least until he began to meet his first super-powered villains. His first ‘super’ was the Chameleon, a super-villain who could change his appearance at will. After his encounters will the Chameleon and some other villains, like the Lizard and Doctor Octopus, Peter realized that he could no longer rely solely on his powers, as he did in his first year of super heroics. He needed to use his intelligence in order to overcome the obstacles in his way.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The War of the Roses"" type=""button"">The War of the Roses [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">However, Peter’s happiness could not last forever.<br/><br/>Over the last decade, the Kingpin of Crime held an iron grip over the criminal underworld on the East Coast. However, when his wife, Vanessa, grew deathly ill, which prompted the Kingpin to focus on curing his dying wife, the Kingpin of Crime began to loosen his grip over the city as his attention was directed elsewhere. Then, out of nowhere, a crime lord called ‘the Rose’ started to encroach onto the Kingpin’s turf. As a result of the Rose’s challenge to the Kingpin’s hegemony, a power struggle spiraled out of control, all the gangs of New York vied for power, and the NYPD were caught in the middle of it. <br/><br/>One night, when Peter was going to the Stacy residence so that he could take Gwen swinging around the city, Peter heard an explosion from within. After changing in his Spider-Man threads, Peter entered into the Stacy residence and found the mercenary, called Jack O’ Lantern, had kidnapped Gwen Stacy. Believing that someone had discovered his secret identity, which would made Gwen, his girlfriend, vulnerable, Peter chased after Gwen’s captor, following the Halloween-themed villain to the Rose’s base.<br/><br/>However, once at the Rose’s hideout, Peter, undetected by the Rose’s men, discovered that the Rose was going to use Gwen as leverage against Captain Stacy in order to get the NYPD off the Rose’s back. Knowing that his dual-life as Spider-Man was not the cause of Gwen’s kidnapping, Peter rushed to Captain Stacy and updated him on the situation. Once everyone was on the same page, Peter and Captain Stacy drafted a plan to save Gwen.<br/><br/>While the NYPD established a perimeter around the Rose’s headquarters and prepared for a raid on that base of operations, Peter snuck in to free Gwen. Synchronizing with Peter and Gwen’s escape, the police burst into the base, taking the Rose’s men by surprise. However, on their way out, Peter and Gwen ran into the Rose and Jack O’ Lantern. The Rose aimed to strike down Peter, but, utilizing his Spider Agility, Peter pushed Gwen out of the way and ducked away from the bullet.<br/><br/>Nevertheless, that bullet still struck someone: Captain Stacy. When Peter and Gwen had not exited from the building, Captain Stacy charged into the epicenter of the base in order to find them. Unfortunately, Captain Stacy was in the wrong place in the wrong time. While Peter and Gwen mourning the loss of Captain Stacy, the Rose made his escape. But the Jack O’ Lantern remained to cover the Rose’s flight.<br/><br/>During the chaos of the police raid and Jack O’ Lantern’s distraction attempt, Gwen was knocked off some scaffolding while Peter attempted to protect her from the Jack O’ Lantern. Peter tried to catch her with a webline, but the Jack O’ Lantern ignored the deadly situation that Gwen found herself in and sucker punched Peter in the back. Hoping to get out of the reach of his assailant, Peter leapt off the scaffolding and dove toward his girlfriend, catching her with a webline. However, when he dropped to the floor, Peter discovered that Gwen had not survived whiplash of his rescue attempt.<br/><br/>After grieving the deaths of his girlfriend and her father, who had been a surrogate father to Peter since both his real father and his uncle Ben had been killed, Peter turned his anger towards Jack O’ Lantern. In a fury of rage, Peter would have beaten Jack to a pulp, if he had not realized that he would have become just like the Rose and Jack O’ Lantern: a killer. Instead, Peter left Jack O’ Lantern for the police to deal with.<br/><br/>In the direct aftermath of the two Stacys’ deaths, Peter could not bring himself to dawn his Spider-Man costume, feeling that his alter-ego had been the cause of his girlfriend’s death. Combined with the rising uneasiness caused by the public reaction towards mutants and Jameson’s ever-continuing mudslinging, Peter retired his Spider-Man threads, believing that throwing in the towel would protect all his loved ones who were still alive.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Family &amp; Friends: </span><br/>-Richard and Mary Parker (deceased): Peter’s biological parents<br/>-Benjamin Parker (deceased): Peter’s Uncle (Richard Parker’s Brother)<br/>-May Reilly Parker: Peter’s Aunt (Benjamin Parker’s wife and Richard Parker’s sister-in-law)<br/>-Gwen Stacy (deceased): Peter’s most recent girlfriend.

For the last couple months, even since the day that Gwen died, Peter could not get himself to pull out his Spider-Man costume from his closet. In his head, Peter kept replaying images from that night and he contemplated how he could have changed those events so that Gwen, and even her father, might be alive today. But unfortunately, thinking about how he could have changed the various outcomes of that night could never bring either of them back from the grave.<br/><br/>“Peter! You have a guest!” Aunt May hollered to her nephew from the bottom of the stairs.<br/><br/>“Tell him I’m no here!” Peter shouted back. But instead of the silence that Peter wanted, he heard a knock on his door. Landing softly on his bed, just like a cat leaping down onto the floor, Peter flipped a switch on his desk that unlocked his door.<br/><br/>“It’s unlocked!” Peter said to whoever was on the other side of the door.<br/><br/>“You do realize that shouting down to your aunt kind of defeats the purpose of trying to get me to think that you are not here. And assuming that I am a ‘him’ is sexist.”<br/><br/>Angelica Jones walked into Peter’s room. Angelica and Peter were best friends in middle school, but her father enrolled her at the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning once her mutant powers manifested (although at the time neither of them knew what mutants were). But once the two became acquainted with the other’s secret double life, as Spider-Man and Firestar, the two old friends were able to rekindle their friendship.<br/><br/>“Whatever.” Peter said as he gazed at the floor, not looking his friend in the eyes.<br/><br/>“’Whatever’? That’s not what the Peter I know would say. He would have thrown a pun my way, no matter how bad it is! Are you sure you aren’t an imposter?” Angelica joked, trying to liven Peter up.<br/><br/>“No. I just have had a few rough months, that’s all.” Just mentioning the last couple months brought back painful memories of Gwen to Peter, causing him to sigh. Angelica plopped beside Peter on his bed, wrapping her arms around him, trying to give him the comfort and support that he needed.<br/><br/>“Maybe we should go out on patrol. Just to get your mind off of things.”<br/><br/>Peter shrugged off Angelica’s grasp on him, jumping up from his bed. “I don’t know. I just have not been in the mood since Gwen died.” But when he turned back around to face his friend, Angelica was trying to make the saddest facial expression that she could make.<br/><br/>“But do you even have your costume with you?” Peter asked. But almost as soon as Peter had uttered these words, Angelica lifted up the bottom of her shirt, revealing the yellow fabric that composed her ‘Firestar’ costume.<br/><br/>“Never leave home unprepared.” Angelica smiled at Peter.<br/><br/>Peter paused for a moment, contemplating whether he should even dawn his Spider-Man costume again. After much internal debating over this subject, Peter finally crumbled to Angelica’s peer-pressure. He opened up his closet door and scrambled to find his costume. The first costume he pulled out was the one he had worn on that fateful night when the girl of his dreams died. However, Peter had neglected to wash to since then. Therefore he made a mental note about washing it and continued to search for his spare costume.<br/><br/>“Okay, let’s do this.” Peter told Angelica, holding his spare costume in his hand.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Player Name</span>: Whiskey Business
<span class=""bb-b"">Character You Wish To Play</span>: Shang Chi as the 67th Immortal Iron Fist
<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment</span>: Hero
<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation:</span> None

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span> Shang Chi was bred to serve his father, Fu Manchu, a crime lord to one of the most dangerous criminal cartels of the world. He learned from various masters of combat and underwent an excruciating training regiment led by the Si-Fan, elite assassins under his father's employ. Each session left the young boy battered and bruised. Nights rarely offered him a chance to rest, for lectures and philosophy awaited him in the moonlight. These after hour teachings often involved watching his father torture those who had wronged him and his organization. It was meant to strengthen his son's resolve. Fu Manchu hoped to instill the proper foundation for his son to one day rule in his place. Shang Chi, however, had no such desires. 

Despite Fu Manchu's best efforts, his son's heart was simply incorruptible. In fact, baring witness to such cruelty only invigorated Shang Chi to bring justice for all of his father's wrongdoings. It thus became his motivation in life to thwart any and all of his operations, covertly sabotaging every element of his father's empire. Eventual word of his son's betrayal summoned a merciless demon within Fu Manchu. From that day forward, Shang Chi never stopped looking over his shoulder. The crime lord sent wave after wave of assassins, but none were successful against the prodigal master of combat. To this day, Fu Manchu and his Si-Fan relentlessly pursue the betrayer, stopping at nothing until vengeance is claimed and honor is restored.

Shang Chi went on to travel the world, eventually settling down in America where he befriended a few superheroes and martial artists. One of particular note was Danny Rand, the 66th Iron Fist to ever wield the power of Shou Lao the Undying. The two were great friends and formidable allies in the war against crime and villainy. However, overtime it became apparent that the dragon force Rand wielded had corrupted his chi - so much so that Shou Lao possessed the Iron Fist without much resistance, taking full control of his powers in the process. 

The results were catastrophic. 

Shou Lao's possession of Danny Rand nearly decimated the entire Eastern seaboard. Shang Chi had no choice but to stop his friend. He hoped to release Danny from the dragon's control without killing him. The feat itself would prove to be impossible. The duel eventually ascended into other-wordly combat, as Shang Chi and the possessed Iron Fist fought on an ethereal battlefield. What passed as minutes went by in years within the trans dimensional pocket of reality where Shou Lao's essence reigned supreme. Shang managed to strike at a vital spot that weakened the dragon's grip over Rand. In this moment, Shou Lao sensed its demise and used a great sum of his power to force the battle back onto earth. With the dragon seemingly vulnerable, Danny Rand was able to temporarily regain control of his body. With much regret, Shang Chi was forced to land the final blow - ending the battle and Danny Rand's life, severing his link between Shou Lao in the process. Such a feat activated the rite of transfer, and contrary to Shang Chi's aversion, became the 67th Iron Fist to wield the dragon force of Shou Lao the Undying. 

Those affiliated with Shang and Danny are somewhat conflicted with what happened. Some fear that the Shou Lao will try to possess him like it did Rand. Others hold a grudge against Shang, believing there was another way, a better way, to save their friend. The general consensus is that Shang Chi saved the world at a great cost, but there is an underlying sentiment among a select few (namely Luke Cage) that claim he wanted the power of the dragon force for himself. Whether or not that's true remains to be seen...

Shang Chi is currently investigating the whereabouts of K'un-Lun. It is one of the capital cities of heaven, the one true haven for all Iron Fists. For reasons unknown, Shang Chi cannot communicate with any of the former Iron Fists, thus making his search even more difficult. His only clue to its location is a myth that says the mystical city appears on earth only once every ten years. He hopes to enter K'un-Lun and somehow bring Danny back from the dead and be rid of the dragon force once and for all. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities</span>: Shang Chi's abilities post-Iron Fist are amplified across the grid. Peak physical conditioning, skilled marksmanship with melee weapons, weapons master, master martial artist, and complete nervous system control, have increased exponentially due to the use of chi augmentation with the dragon force. However, cannot help but use his newfound powers passively. Reluctantly obtaining the Iron Fist mantle at the cost of his friend's well-being has subconsciously dwarfed his true potential. As a result, Shang Chi has become more of a support healer type. He takes on a more defensive approach when fighting crime, under utilizing the near-limitless power of Shou Lao. The dragon force allows him to Mind Meld with others, able to break people free of mind control and can also share memories and emotions. He can also absorb massive amounts of energy, as well as detect various energy signatures.    
<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs</span>:

- A ""Game of Death"" scenario. Shang Chi must ascend up a tower fighting master martial artists in order to discover a truth about K'un-Lun. 
- An arc putting Fu Manchu and the Si-Fan at the forefront of world threats. Major truths for Shang Chi are to be revealed. 
- Any magic-themed plot that could somehow intertwine Shang Chi's ongoing search for K'un-Lun and/or his identity as the new Iron Fist.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sample Post"" type=""button"">Sample Post [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">I am a single blade of grass amidst a sea of thorn-branched weeds. I will not waver...</span> 

The soft radiance of the rising sun brought warmth to his body. Shang Chi stood perched on top of a tall oak, perfectly motionless since the night before. He assumed the form of the crane stance, maintaining his entire weight on a single leg with both arms raised above his head. If it were not for the yellow-colored sash and mask, he could've been mistaken as an extension of the branch. His emerald green garbs blended well with the forest in full bloom.   

<span class=""bb-i"">The moon exchanges hands with the sun, with it, comes the wild of night. The sun returns to reunite with his brother, with it, comes the wild of morning. Both ends of the spectrum must meet before reaching the peak of their truer essence. With it, brings life dependent upon each cycle...</span>

Shang Chi meditated on those words. He did not force their understanding, rather, he continued to let them roll off the tongue of his inner voice. Such was the paradigm of truths as of late. Since dawning the mantle of the Iron Fist, Shang Chi has been caught in a tumultuous flux. Merging with the powerful dragon force of Shao Lou the Undying has bloated his chi. Drunk with power, the Master of Kung Fu has tried religiously to maintain equilibrium with himself. The internal struggle is no doubt caused by the loss of his friend Danny Rand. In his passing, Danny exchanged the power of the Iron Fist to Shang Chi, with it, the pain acquired in order to obtain it.  

Images of their combat flashed into his mind. The glaring eyes of Shao Lou flickered within Danny's possessed gaze as they battled on. Momentary glimpses of Danny's normal self would resurface during their duel from time to time. It made the fight all the more harder for Shang Chi to overcome. It became abundantly clear that relinquishing Shao Lou's possession of Danny without fatal injury was not possible. After fighting to a standstill, there was no other way. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Or was there?</span> 

Shang Chi frowned. <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-i"">No... there was no other way.</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Oh? You truly believe so?</span>

Shang struggled to remain calm, tried taking deep breaths to control his heart rate. <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Stop.</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Claim the high horse as your seat all you like, but no matter which angle you look at it, the apple did not fall far from the tree...son of Fu Man-</span>

""GRRRRGGHHH!!!!!"" Without hesitation or thought, Shang Chi clenched his fist until it bled with golden energy and slammed it onto the trunk of the oak. A rippling wave of chi splashed into the shape of a spear, evaporating the top end of the tree in its bright aura. The weight of such power came as a shock, and Shang Chi no longer had control of it. The concussive force of the blast immediately broke the large oak from its foundation, then bulldozed through a cluster of other trees behind it. Shang immediately leapt off the falling oak and landed onto the branch of another. The sound of groaning wood and crashing thuds ignited the forest in a frenzy. Birds flew to the skies, cawing in fear.  

Shang regained his composure, calming the inner storms of his mind and spirit. Somewhere deep within himself, he could feel Shao Lou smiling. It made him sick. 

<span class=""bb-i"">You are not worthy of the mantle...</span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">I know...</span></span></div></div></div>"

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Iron Fist<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/whiskey-business"">@Whiskey Business</a></footer></blockquote>There are two problems that I see so far:
1) The Avengers have not formed yet, so they could not have helped Shang Chi against the 66th Iron Fist.

2) Think of this kind of like the Ultimate Universe. In most cases, most heroes/villains have just started their careers at the very most three years ago.  I will allow for people having their powers for longer (like Mutants) or starting their careers earlier, but they cannot be public figures just yet.

While the wealthy members of society splurged their country's funds on glamour and material wealth the common folk froze in the street and starved. The country would continue this horrid decline for most of Victor's childhood before men like his father started organizing and deciding something had to be done about the government and the way it treats it's people. This began a Separatist movement lead by Victor's father Werner von Doom. At first the Separatists demanded their own free state apart from the established Republic of Latveria only to be denied. When the people who supported this movement began demonstrating they became subject to strong arm tactics causing the state to erupt into Civil war between the Republic State of Latveria and the Separatists lead by Werner von Doom.

For the rest of his time in Latveria Victor was forced to go into hiding with his mother to avoid the attention of the government, they went from safe house to safe house for years until one night when the government successfully located them. A firebomb was thrown through their window and the resulting fire consumed his mother and left Victor's body partially scarred. For fear of his sons life, Werner von Doom shipped his son off to an English boarding school under the alias 'Viktor Vaughn' an alias that would stick for a long time. It was during this period Victor's mind was truly shaped, with access to more information than he ever had the boy never stopped learning. He was a prodigy is most of his subjects and the ones he wasn't naturally gifted in, he studied and conquered. Victor would grow to learn whatever he put his mind to, he could easily accomplish.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""On the path of Doom"" type=""button"">On the path of Doom [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Victor eventually left school at the turn of the century as one of the highest achieving students they'd ever had and continued on into university while scoring a job in the now infant field of robotics working for a fledgling company tasked with constructing military grade prototype drones. This exposed Victor to a whole plethora of knowledge and experience working with military grade robotics and would later prove to be his first stepping stone towards power. As his skills developed Victor began proposing changes to the original design and was soon seen by his superiors as their 'golden child', full of ideas and constantly revolutionizing the robotic field. In a mere three years at age 21 Victor would find himself as one of the youngest and most respected minds in his field eventually given his own lab in America and the privacy to develop whatever he wished. It was during this time Victor began experimenting with the idea of cybernetics and augmenting his own body for future purposes.

While one could not doubt Dr Viktor Vaughn's (Doom's still active alias) advanced knowledge of robotics none expected him to be the cunning businessman he was, slowly arising through the business that had been expanding around him Victor von Doom would soon find himself in line to be the next President of the company and eventually renamed the business 'Doom International' after changing his name and revealing his true identity as the son of a former Latveria Separatist leader. This new bit of information attracted many potential enemies to Victor but they stayed their distance knowing how untouchable the man was now, he was earning well over a few million a year alone and had more than enough to help fund the now empowered Separatist movement in Latveria. Doom International was now becoming one of the most respected developers of military grade weapons, namely in robotics and cybernetics, with a young 25 year old Victor von Doom leading them in the right direction.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sentence to Doom"" type=""button"">Sentence to Doom [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">In the last five years between his take over of Doom International and the present Victor von Doom has subjected himself to experimentation that has resulted in astounding results. Victor has adopted a secret agenda to turn himself into a living weapon to help conquer Latveria for its people, while some may view this as some form of megalomania Victor believes ambition alone makes the man. Currently, he is a 30 year old single bachelor living as one of the richest men in Baltimore, Maryland. Under the guise of 'The Master' Victor von Doom funds the Latverian rebels and has proven to be the single largest impact in the last ten years, much like his father Victor has been able to lead the rebels to a slow victory over their oppressors.</div></div>
<font color=""gold"">Powers and Abilities:</font>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Advanced Genius Level Intellect</div>
Victor von Doom has proven to be one of the brightest minds on planet Earth to date. A world renowned scientist and businessman Doom has used his mind to get where he is today, he is constantly educating himself and picking up new skills. After enhancing himself with an advanced cybernetics system Victor's commutative abilities have multiplied massively, with a computer built in his brain visualizing theoretical situations and near instantaneous comprehension are only some abilities granted to him. Over the period of his life, Victor has used his great intellect to master a variety of combative skills.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Limited Technopathy</div>
An unnatural talent Victor has allowing him to innately understand almost all forms of technology he encounters. This has allowed Victor to forge thousands of gadgets although he may not always have them on hand.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Progenitor Bias</div>
An AI that is designed to serve Victor to its full potential, after completing cybernetic trials on himself granting him the ability to integrate with computers, Victor's next step was developing a system to operate it thus creating 'Progenitor Bias' one of the first self aware artificial lifeforms crafted by man. Running off a highly advanced quantum computing system, the AI runs a program that predicts what Victor's next actions <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> be and then prepares the suit for the most logical of them all with an accuracy of 98.95%. The AI has advanced protection system and backup directives designed to protect Victor at all cost from most imaginable situations. Since the system is hardwired straight into Victor's neural network it has been able to passively enhance his body to operate at its most peak physical level turning Victor into an Olympic level athlete.

<div class=""bb-h3"">'Doom Suit'</div>
A one-of-a-kind suit of armor Victor has invented for himself the suit has a multitude of uses and is constantly being upgraded by Doom.

<div class=""bb-indent"">The doom suit is comprised of three different layers of defense. The outer most layer is an invisible fore-field emitted from the belt of the Doom suit, this barrier is generally a skintight shield that absorbs a variety of damage but can also be expanded to encompass those around doom at the expense of strength. The second layer is a thin yet highly durable layer of titanium alloy plates spread around his body covering the most vital points and held on by the final layer - a highly advanced one of a kind cloth mesh that covers most of his body. The mesh is reactive to the AI controlling it and uses an advanced electronics seal the plates to the mesh. The suit is equipped with a highly sophisticated life support system with reserves that can sustain Victor for lengthy periods of time and allow him to survive in the harshest of environments.</div>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Magical Prowess</div>
Although currently unknown to him, Victor von Doom holds a natural ability to utilize magic he simply lacks training in the field to do so.

<font color=""gold"">Sample Story Arcs:</font> <ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Victor von Doom's entire life has been built around a single desire, for Latveria and her people to have their own identity free from corruption and oppression. To create a Utopia for mankind is Victor's ultimate goal, his path to achieving this however may not suit some people especially those who already hold the power themselves.</li><li>Much of his abilities are still in their infancy, if he wants to have the power to help his people Victor may need to embrace his magical heritage.</li><li>Victor's father and brother have never been confirmed dead, simply disappeared never to be heard from again. Although he personally believes they are dead and gone, he still wishes to find out the story behind their death and who is responsible for it.</li><li>Victor has many political and business enemies who would love to see nothing more than seeing him buried six feet under, many of these enemies even have the power to do so. Exactly who the enemies he has are for the most part unknown. This can easily result in a power struggle between him and many outside forces for control of his country and his international multi-billion dollar business.</li><li>Latveria is a rather small and underdeveloped country with very little natural resources, Victor figures there must be a reason that it is being so heavily contested.</li></ul>
<font color=""gold"">Sample Post:</font><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Doom Conundrum"" type=""button"">The Doom Conundrum [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yes well.. I understand that too all I'm saying is.. Fine. I'll get it done don't worry.""</span> Victor slammed the phone down absorbing the silence that now filled his office. Dilemma after dilemma, this had been Victor's life since day one. He had always overcome any issue he ran into but never anything on this scale, what he was considering doing was war. His enemies had more power, more money, more allies than he but Victor has never backed down and this would be no different. There was a solution to every problem, he knew that the only issue was figuring one out. 

Currently the problem was with the foreign aid in Latveria, the rebels he supports aren't organized enough to break the stalemate. The only way he could get them to do that was if they unite under one leadership, specifically his, but without having a presence in that country the rebels may not obey him. Victor was required to be here in America to run his business and amass the wealth needed to fund his endeavor. There was no way he could operate in two places at once, was there? 

Spinning in his chair to face the massive ceiling-to-floor windows in his office, Victor leaned back in his chair and sighed when a knocked echoed from the door. <span class=""bb-b"">""Come in""</span> he called watching a slender, dark-skinned woman in a simple maroon dress enter. His secretary Beth was new and still appeared nervous when she spoke him <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello sir, I have your mail and that report you asked for from Dr. Anton Vanko.""</span> Victor nodded and continued looking out his window onto the sunny Boston city. As Beth approached his desk her clacking shoes echoed throughout the room and Victor felt them assault his ears with each step. Victor waited for her to place the stack of papers on his desk and begin to walk away before he calmly turned and addressed her.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Beth do you enjoy wearing those shoes?""</span> He said looking down at the papers, <span class=""bb-i"">more crap mostly</span> he thought to himself eyeing the manila envelop before he noticed a letter with the name 'Dr William White' written across the front the name seemed familiar but Victor ignored it and looked up at Beth.

Beth paused for a moment and appeared hesitant before she spoke <span class=""bb-b"">""No.. not really?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Then don't wear them anymore, no more clicky-clack shoes they drive me insane. Get yourself a comfortable and preferably quiet pair.""</span> his voice was firm yet he meant nothing by it, she had thought before she spoke and most important was honest something he would remember. Looking up she nodded at him before quickly slipping out through the door, clearly fearing she had made a fatal error. As the door shut behind her a sly smirk appeared on Victor's face, he always enjoyed watching people squirm. 

Lifting up the manila folder from Dr Vanko, he once more saw the letter from Dr White and Victor suddenly felt something click in his mind. His eyes widened and his head turned to face the computer, staring at the blank screen in front of him he allowed images to fill his head as the gears in his brain churned at full power. The name was familiar he knew that but now he knew who the man was, Dr White was an engineer and one of the members of the same team Victor was on to create the prototype drones all those years ago. He carefully opened the small letter and quickly scanned over the hastily written note. 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Dear Dr. von Doom,

I am Dr Bill White, we worked together on an unmanned drone prototype a couple years back. Through contacts of my own I have come to learn of your interest in history specifically eastern european history, <span class=""bb-i"">eastern european history</span> is something I am very good at you see. If you're ever interested in talking about it contact me. My number is enclosed.

- Bill White'</span>

Victor looked over the note again and his eyes focused on the words 'eastern european history'. Something about them stood out to Victor as if Dr White was trying to infer something. Picking up the envelope Victor found a small business card of a laundromat located in Boston, it featured a phone number and address along with a little washing machine decal. Giving the note one last read over Victor grew even more curious of what he could be trying to say. 

After a couple moments of consideration Victor lifted the phone on his desk and tapped in the number of the laundromat. The phone rung a couple times before the voice of an older man coughed out a raspy <span class=""bb-b"">""Hello?""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Hello this is Victor von Doom, President of Doom International. I was interested with speaking with Dr White?""</span> 

After a few moments Dr White spoke with a much more serious tone <span class=""bb-b"">""Yes. Let's meet next Friday. I'll be at your office then.""</span> without waiting for a reply the phone clicked off and Victor noted the date in his mind. Victor pulled the phone from his ear and looked at it curiously. Something was beginning to unfold around him and the fact he didn't fully understand it yet put him on edge for the first time in years.</div></div>

So yeah I guess I'm done. How is it?</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span>

It's fair that many with knowledge of Gods and 'Gards claim that the superhero calling herself Thor is, in actuality, no God. There is no evidence of a Thunder god and/or goddess in the current pantheon of gods, nothing except for a missing Thunder God where most agree prior Pantheons, in fact, had a Thunder God. This shrouds the current Thor in mystery and intrigue--both of which she tends to ignore, and isn't exactly fond of speaking to.

Despite those with knowledge fairly believing there is no current God of Thunder, their evidence is faulty, as the woman claiming to be Thor is, in fact, a divine figure--the product Gaea and Odin. She was briefly raised in Asgard, though Odin has gone to great lengths to erase any memory of her in fellow Asgardians. And he did so out of pure spite and anger. It was Gaea who pushed Odin to send Thor out of Asgard; not sending her to Earth, but instead sending her to grow and mature as she transversed the spaceways. Feeling cheated out of his daughter, Odin moved to erase Thor from Asgardian memory--her only mentions coming in vague tales of their mythos. 

Odin would not be seen as weak, having been cheated out of a daughter. Instead, he would pretend it never happened. A plan that worked for a very long time. With great success...until a year ago to the day, when Thor first appeared during a massive earthquake and subsequent tsunami event in Indonesia. Months later she would appear again, cleansing the Gulf of Mexico from a BP oil spill. Yet again a few months later, this time in Hawaii to divert the lava flow from an erupting volcano from decimating a large town on Hawaii's second largest island. 

So the pattern would, and has, repeated: whenever mother nature causes the kind of chaos few heroes can do anything about, Thor will appear, brilliant and bright amongst the clouds, with lightning and thunder at her back, and an oversized hammer cliched in her right hand--to do what can be done, typically for the Earth and it's wild animals.....rarely, it has been noted by media outlets all over the world, does Thor interfere to save humans. 

Only recently has Thor decided to investigate just what befell Asgard and Odin after her departure to the cosmos, starting her investigation in the mortal frame, disguising herself as a Meteorologist student at Columbia in New York City--as cosmic experience has told her to blend in with the locals of any planet, if she wants to find out any information without Thor causing headlines and ruckus. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Powers and Weakness"" type=""button"">Powers and Weakness [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Asgardian/Elder God Hybrid Physiology:</span> Biologically half-Asgardian on her father's side and half-Elder God on her mother's side; Thor possesses a number of superhuman attributes common among the Asgardian and other gods. However, due to her unique birth, some are considerably more developed than those of the vast majority of her race. Thor's skin, muscle, and bone tissues have several times the density of the same tissues in the body of a human being, contributing to her superhuman weight. She is invulnerable to powerful energy blasts, weighted impacts, falls from great heights, explosions and various other opposing forces. Even without her godly power Thor is still physically the strongest and most durable of all the Asgardians.

<span class=""bb-b"">Life-Force:</span> also known as the God-Force. The godly energies that fuel all of Thor's godlike powers. Thor's immortal life-force is more powerful than the mystical properties of Mjolnir. Unlike many other deities, Thor's unique Life-force allows her to have full access to all of her powers regardless of what realm she enters. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Strength:</span> In addition to being the Goddess of Thunder, Thor is also the Asgardian Goddess of Strength, as such she is physically the strongest of the Asgardian gods.

<span class=""bb-b"">Invulnerability:</span> Being a god whose heritage is both half-Asgardian and half-Elder God affords Thor virtual invulnerability and immunity to such human ailments as diseases, toxins, poisons, corrosives, fire, electrocution, asphyxiation, and lead and radiation poisoning. Thor can drink mead all day long and not become drunk.  Thor is extremely difficult to kill as her life force is considerably augmented by her godlike heritage, and Mjolnir.

<span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Speed:</span> Thor can move at extreme speeds. Thor can fly to the sun in a matter of minutes. She can throw Mjolnir at several times the speed of light, and also swing Mjolnir at several times the speed of light while her strength was reduced in half. It has been established that the speed of Thor's hammer transcends both time &amp; space. In addition, Thor can appear anywhere across the Universe or other dimensions in just seconds. Thor has stated that she is as fast as the lightning she commands.

<span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Stamina:</span> Thor's advanced musculature is considerably more efficient than that of a human and most other Asgardians. Her virtually inexhaustible stamina enables her to hold her breath for an undefined period of time, and exert herself at peak capacity for months without tiring at all.

<span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Senses:</span> Thor's superhuman sense's allow her to see objects as far out as the edge of the Solar System, allow her to track objects traveling faster than light, and hear cries from the other side of the planet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Healing Factor:</span> Thor is not invulnerable to all harm and it is possible to injure her. But due to Thor’s unique physiology she is able to heal from most injuries much faster than a human being could.  This healing factor is said to be much stronger than that of the typical Asgardian God. With the use of Mjolnir, Thor can also regenerate her clothes. However, Thor cannot regenerate lost limbs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Longevity:</span> It is a common misconception that Thor and the other Gods of Asgard are truly immortal. Thor and the other members of her race do age but at a rate so slow that to other beings they give the appearance of immortality. Thor has been stated to be thousands of years old which makes her life span incomparable to that of the human beings which she protects. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Super Breath:</span> Thor can use her breath to create hurricane force winds.

<span class=""bb-b"">Flight:</span> Thor has shown the ability to fly and levitate without her hammer.

<span class=""bb-b"">Self Sustenance:</span> She is capable of surviving in the vacuum of space unaided and does not need air, food, water, or sleep.

<span class=""bb-b"">Earth Control:</span> Always closer to Gaea than Odin, Thor has accepted her heritage as a child of the Elder Goddess Gaea and gained the ability to control the Earth. The scale and reach is yet unknown.

<span class=""bb-b"">Transcend Dimensions:</span> Given her cosmic adventuring past, Thor has plenty of experience with pocket and separate dimensions--and seems more than capable of determing their boundaries, and transversing them at will.

<span class=""bb-b"">Energy Manipulation:</span> Thor has stated that she relies on the power of Mjolnir too often. Mjolnir does afford powers and abilities that she would not normally have, but Mjolnir is a tool, and Thor has natural energy manipulation abilities without Mjolnir. Powers she has little experience with, and more intuition than actual working knowledge of.

<span class=""bb-b"">Lightning/Electrokinesis:</span> Thor usually uses Mjolnir to channel her storm abilities but she is capable of discharging lightning bolts from her hands.

<span class=""bb-b"">Rain:</span> Thor can summon rain without the use of Mjolnir. 

<span class=""bb-b"">All-Tongue:</span> Thor has the ability to speak any language in the universe, no matter how ancient or obscure, given any exposure to the language. Including the languages of Earth and Sky, including the universal language of mathematics. A skill sharpened over time during her cosmic travels.

<span class=""bb-b"">Primary weakness:</span> The biggest chink in Thor's proverbial armor is Mjolnir; if Thor loses the hammer for whatever reason, her power levels begin falling off to merely Asgardian levels. Thor has speculated if she loses Mjolnir for an extended period of time, she'd become nothing more than mortal. Though the truth of this statement is unverified.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Food Fights:</span> Thor arrives at an alien planet only to find the humanoids that rule the planet at war with what the aliens believe to be unintelligent sea-beasts. In reality, the war was started when the aliens began harvesting sea life for food at such an alarming rate that the non-humanoid sea creatures were unable to re-populate adequately; igniting a war that threatens the very planet. Thor is able to speak the telepathic language of the sea-beasts, thus ending the conflict with an agreement between the aliens and their very much intelligent sea-beasts. 

<span class=""bb-i"">The Lost Girl:</span> Thor arrives upon Earth at the call of Gaea, only to find a planet in chaos from extreme weather and even more extreme abuse from Earth's humanoid populations. After months of what she calls ""divine clean-up"", Thor decided to stay on Midgard and learn; creating a mundane alter-ego, and starting college. Her first challenge? Midgard female fashions. Her second challenge? The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents undercover at the University, searching for the Thunder goddess' they (correctly) believe to be hiding out in sheep's clothing. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sample Post"" type=""button"">Sample Post [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">""Oh. Hello.""

The man spoke the words as if he'd turned around, and casually bumped into a stranger on the street. But there was nothing casual in that very moment; when the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent turned to find not just a stranger, but the Goddess of Thunder in full Asgardian battle armor, the long and flowing cape pinned to her shoulders like a supernatural shadow never straying too far from the goddess for too long. The agent's Glock pistol was slowly lowered, as the mortal man realized he might as well had been holding a water gun at the suddenly appeared godling--for all the good it would've done him.

""Greetings, mortal.""

""...you, uh...out for a walk, or something?"" His curiosity was kept low and distant, though Thor could sense the emotions of the man: he wanted like nothing else to know why the Goddess had appeared in the super secret S.H.I.E.L.D. facility carved out of a mountain side. It was all the man could do to restrain himself. And that was just THIS mortal--not counting the small army of mortals just down the corridor, waiting on the edge of action should they be called in to confront S.H.I.E.L.D.'s uninvited guest. 

""No."" Her tone, like her attentions, were divided; she responded to him in a low, distracted, tone. As she was contending with him, she was also monitoring every mortal soul in the secret facility. Though the lion's share of her attention went to the secret facilities rows upon rows of mainframes, and the information electronically stored upon them. That computers were dependent on electricity made them largely subject to her willful manipulation. When there was information within one of the electric boxes she needed, her intuition alone was enough to take the information, while still leaving it within the motherboards in which it was electronically stored. 

""No?...huh."" Then he chuckled, like something funny came to his mind. ""I only ask because this is a top secret facility not even the US President knows about. So I'm REALLY curious as to how the fuck you knew about it, got in, and just what in Hell you think you're doing here.""

""Your 'Hell' is a place of fiction. I seek information on real dimensions.""

""Right...who are you?""

As light flashed off a freshly drawn blade, so Thor's lips pressed into what flashed to the mortal agent as the mere hint of a smile.

""I am Thor, Goddess of Thunder, and I seek Asgard.""</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Hero
<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation:</span> Himself, the Folk (Humanity) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span>
Many years ago, when Bor, ruler of Asgard, was battling frost giants, he followed a wounded giant to a powerful sorcerer that was waiting for him. The sorcerer caught him unaware, turning Bor into snow. Bor's son, Odin, found his father as he was blowing away; Bor begged Odin to find a sorcerer to free him, but Odin made no attempt to save his father. Bor cursed Odin saying that he would take in the son of a fallen king and raise it as his own. Not a week later, Odin himself led the Asgardians into battle against the Frost Giants and killed Laufey, who was the King, in personal combat. After slaying Laufey, Odin found a small Asgardian-sized child hidden within the primary stronghold of the Frost Giants. The child was Loki and Laufey had kept him hidden from his people due to his shame over his son's small size. Odin took the boy, out of a combination of pity, to appease his father, and because he was the son of a worthy adversary slain in honorable combat, and raised him as his son. 

For a number of years, Loki tried to live up to his father's expectations and earn his rightful place in Asgard. His parentage as the child of a frost giant shadowed his dealings with the other members of Asgard, but it was his personality and personal strengths that truly distanced him from his peers; The Asgardians valued great strength, tenacity, and bravery in battle above all things while Loki instead favored intelligence and trickery to win his battles. While such conduct was oftentimes considered dishonorable by the more 'honor bound' (Read: Thick headed) Asgardians, Loki did earn a grudging respect for himself after he was able to trick an enemy builder into building Asgard a mighty defensive wall for nothing without harming the honor of the Asgardians; The builder himself had in fact been one of the Rock Folk (troll) trying to con the Asgardians by presenting himself as a member of the Folk instead of his true form in order to secure the payment of the Goddess of Desire for a bride alongside control of the Sun and the Moon.

Things changed the day that, as a joke, Loki cut off Sif's hair. Threatened with violence, Loki promised to fetch replacement hair from the dwarves. Having a word with the Sons of Ivaldi in order to have the hair created, Loki decided to try and earn some goodwill with the rest of Asgard by having two other gifts created; A magical ship that could sink down enough to be fitted into a pocket and a spear that would never miss its target. As he was about to return to Asgard with these gifts, Loki ran into a dwarf named Eitri who was insulted that Loki had gone to the Sons of Ivaldi over him. Loki challenged him to do better and Eitri accepted; the terms of the bet was that Eitri would make three gifts of his own and all six would be presented to the Asgardians who would judge which gifts were better. If Loki lost, Eitri would claim his head for daring to disregard his abilities.

As Eitri and his brother work the forge, Loki shape-shifted into a mayfly and attempted to sabotage the pair's efforts by biting Eitri's brother while he works the bellows. The first two attempts failed to produce results, but while working on the final treasure (A hammer) Loki bit Eitri's brother right between the eyes, causing him to stop pumping the bellows in pain for a moment and causing the hammer to be flawed (Its handle was shorter then it was intended, resulting in it only being a one handed weapon). 

Despite the flaw in his work, the Asgardian's judged Eitri's gifts to be the better. As the dwarf went to claim his price of Loki's head, Loki managed to save himself by claiming that while his head was Eitri's, his neck was still his and thus he had no right to harm it. Unable to find a way to remove Loki's head without harming his neck, Eitri was enraged to find himself cheated of his prize and instead decided to sow Loki's mouth shut much to the amusement of the various Asgardian's who had been witness to the presentation of the gifts. Eitri's magic would leave eight silver scars on his face, four on each side of his mouth. 

This was the moment that Loki finally realized that he would never truly be considered one of the Asgardian's. While it was true that not all of them laughed at his pain, not a single one of them attempted to help him in the slightest. This was the moment that Loki vowed that he would see them all fall.  

Over the years Loki would subtlety undermine and weaken the Asgardian's from within, often by using their natures against them to either harm their relationships with each other or to lose powerful artifices to their enemies; All the while, he would carefully be gathering together allies from the various enemies of the Asgardian's, more often then not by making them think they were the ones getting the upper hand against the Trickster.

Loki would have numerous children during this period. By his wife Sigyn he would have twin sons named Vali and Narvi; By the sorceress Angrboda he would have his daughter Hel, Fenris the wolf demon and Jormungand the world serpent.   

Loki would continue his attempts to undermine Asgard until Odin would share the prophecy of Mimir with the other gods while taking all effort to prevent Loki from finding out about it. With the other Asgardian's making him more uncomfortable and more unwelcome then normal and learning that it was due to some sort of prophecy, Loki would secretly visit Mimir to hear it for himself. 

Hearing Mimir's prophecy put several ideas that Loki would never have thought of on his own in his head. Carrying out these new plans Loki was forced into hiding in an attempt to escape from the wrath of the Asgardian's. Several attempts were made to capture Loki, such as Odin threatening to execute Loki's twin sons if he didn't return; When Loki didn't surrender himself, Odin carried out his threat. Shortly afterwards, Loki was captured. Bound to a tree at the boarders of the worlds to remain until the end of the world, Loki would be captive to a venomous snake that kept spiting insanely painful venom into his eyes and his wife Sigyn (who after the death of her twin sons was deranged enough to make Annie Wilkes proud).

Loki would stay there for quite sometime until he was freed from his torment by the Sorceress Gullvieg-Heid to aid her in bringing about the end of Asgard and Ragnarök. Loki, completely consumed by a desire for revenge, agreed. 

Ragnarök happened shortly afterwards. It is hard to put into words the scale of the worlds being destroyed after the sun and the moon was consumed by the fel wolves, of the pain and bloodshed as brother turned against brother and monsters of all shapes and sizes laid siege to Asgard. It is hard for mere words to do justice to the death of gods and the Chaos that consumed all. 

While Ragnarök was <span class=""bb-i"">an</span> end, it wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">the</span> end. The worlds were reborn and the new came to replace the ruins of the old. 

A number of Asgardian's didn't actually die during Ragnarök, instead being claimed by the Lord of Chaos and locked away inside of a fortress in the Netherworld. Loki found himself amongst that number since his propose had been fulfilled. Locked in a cell of his own worst fears with a demon personally crafted to ensure that he couldn't escape (Naturally in the shape of a snake) Loki would have completely lost himself to his despair were it not for a single ray of hope. 

The last few verses of Mimir's prophecy suggested that the worlds would start anew and that, possibly, he might have a chance to escape this torment and start with a clean slate. A flimsy ray of hope maybe, but hope none the less that helped keep Loki relatively sane. 

Time is not really a factor in the Netherworld (It's the realm of chaos. Rules like time don't really apply there) but after who knows how long of imprisonment and torment Loki found himself freed from his cell and on the world of the Folk (Humans) after a group of young human males calling themselves Young Serbia performed a powerful ritual to try and summon a force of chaos to aid them in freeing Serbia from Austria-Hungary's iron grasp. They were rather successful as it turned out. 

While he was more than grateful to be free and might have even aided his rescuers on his own accord, the fact that they had used the ritual to bind him to their service irked him greatly. 

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife and the almost comical series of mishaps that happened on both sides that finally brought the assassination about were very much Loki's doing... And once the task was performed his debt was fulfilled and he was completely free to abandon his liberators to their accepted ends. Before the year was over, Loki was shocked, proud and a little bit horrified at the sheer scale of death and destruction that was sparked off by his actions.  

The chaos brought about by the 'Great War' was more then enough to restore and sustain Loki for quite a long time, but still he decided to lay low in order to get a feel for the world he now found himself in. If what had quite honestly started off as a minor conflict had resulted in a war so grand in scale that it shook the very world to the core he needed to reign himself in before he found himself standing alone in a Hel like landscape or worse.

Over the 98 years that he has been free, Loki has kept a somewhat more subtle existence. In truth, he has rather taken a shine to these cycle of Folk due to their naturally chaotic and intelligent nature; Unlike the worlds of old in which the strongest ruled and were respected, here it was the inventive and the cunning that took point in shaping how things continued on. While Loki is more then willing to slip in the odd joke, most of his work over the years has been dedicated to preventing the Folk from wiping themselves out.

The recent raise of Super-humans has actually caught Loki's interest and has offered him the chance to be a bit more open about his existence.                     

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Powers and abilities (And weaknesses)"" type=""button"">Powers and abilities (And weaknesses) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Loki is a member of the race of Frost Giants of Jotunheim, although not a giant in stature. He possesses physical attributes equal to a fit member of the race known as the Asgardian Gods, such as enhanced strength; stamina, speed, durability, (his Frost Giant metabolism grants him superhuman levels of physical stamina in practically all activities); durability enough to harmlessly withstand high-caliber bullets; and immunity to all known diseases and toxins, as well as resistance to magic.

Loki possesses genius-level intelligence and has extensive training in magic, and possesses the ability to manipulate magical forces for a variety of purposes: energy projection, creation of force fields, temporarily increasing his own physical strength, granting superhuman abilities to living beings or inanimate objects, flight, hypnosis, illusion casting, and inter-dimensional teleportation.

Loki's magical abilities have been described as equal to those of Karnilla, the most skilled sorceress of Asgard. His illusion casting can fool cities, and powerful entities such as Surtur.

Loki is an adept shapeshifter and can change into animals (examples include transmogrification to a salmon, horse, etc.) or impersonate other people. However, he does not necessarily gain the abilities of whatever he turns into, although minor natural abilities such as flight in bird form tend to work. Loki may mimic the abilities of some supernatural beings if he turn into such creatures.

Loki possesses a brilliant intellect, with some knowledge of technology. He is an expert manipulator and schemer, frequently using pawns in his plans. He is sometimes armed with a sword, a whip, or a three-pronged spear and has used magical items to enhance his powers.

To the surprise of those who don't know his past all that well, Loki has Ophidiophobia; a fear of snakes. This is something that he keeps very much to himself.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Second Chance with a clean slate:</span> Loki has been granted something that he had hoped but honestly never expected to get; A second chance at life. With Asgard gone, all of the Asgardian's that he had hated either long dead or rotting in a cell in the Netherworld and after enduring the torment of the Netherworld and his mistakes for countless eons, Loki is rather happy to try a be something deserving of this second chance.

<span class=""bb-i"">Morality is objective:</span> Loki's idea of morality has never been the most fixed of things, even back when he wasn't plotting and scheming against the powers that be in Asgard. However, the scale of morality that he was raised with is vastly different to the one that is often used by modern cultures of the Folk. Such things can cause friction between himself and the forces of 'Good' 

<span class=""bb-i"">Can the scorpion truly change his nature?</span>Being a hero and doing good for others without some end goal in mind is... new to Loki. Will he be able to maintain his new found desire to do good or will he fall back into old habits once more?  

<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span>

Despite having had the ability to do so for almost a century, there was nothing quite like laying down on a soft bed and simply... <span class=""bb-i"">relaxing</span>. As his head sank a little into the pillow, Loki couldn't help he smile a little. 

If he had to pick only one thing about this new world the Folk had made for themselves that he loved, he would be very hard pressed not to answer finance. The whole system was based on the agreed upon illusion that a piece of paper was equal to an agreed upon amount of gold and that a bank will happily trade that note for the agreed amount of gold on the condition that no one ever asks them to do so. 

Opening his eyes for a moment and looking around his hotel suite, Loki's silvery grin seemed to grow a little wider. The bedroom alone had already bested the riches and comfits of some of the halls of Asgard herself; The fact that the bastards who had denied him his own hall in Asgard would never be able to enjoy such a thing themselves appealed to the wicked part of Loki's soul and simply made the experience all the better. 

It didn't even take all that much to secure the room either. A simple illusion so that a machine registered that there was enough illusionary money wasn't all that hard and quite frankly was pretty much what the whole system was based off of anyway. 

Reaching over for the remote, Loki happily turned on the rather large TV that on opposite the bed. Changing the channel a few times to see what was on he stopped as he came across one of the news networks. The title of the story currently headlining at caught his attention and he couldn't help but settle in to watch. 

""<span class=""bb-i"">As police arrived at the scene, dozens of colored men wearing the white robes of the KKK were already dead on the ground as the still living members of the terrorist organization were trying to murder each other, all of them also of color. As police started to round up and arrest the survivors some of them started to recognize the men that they were arresting and they can confirm with the family, friends and video evidence that the suspects had been Caucasian mere hours before the arrest. Medical personal are currently...</span>""

Loki didn't hear the rest of the report because he was to busy laughing and trying to hold in his sides. It was honestly one of the best pranks he had ever pulled. Changing the color of something was a surprisingly easy spell and frankly the reason behind their hatred was just plain stupid and foolish. Wiping away a build up of water around his eyes as his laughter started to slow down, Loki couldn't help but bask in the glow of how good he felt. 

With a satisfied sigh, he whispered to himself ""Life is good.""

""The hell do you want, puta?""

The bouncer outside the nightclub didn't have time to get his answer. A powerful fist struck him in the face and drove him to the ground. The bouncer looked up, his sunglasses astray, and right into the blade of a butterfly knife. The clubgoers standing outside watched on in shock.

""Carlos Fring,"" Rachel said, placing the blade of the knife under the bouncer's eye.

""Fuck off!"" The large man yelled.

""Wrong answer."" Rachel raked the blade up the bouncer's face. The bystanders recoiled and horror and began to scatter.

""Ahhh!"" The bouncer screamed. He held his bloody face with both hands. ""He's in the back office!""

Rachel flicked the blade back into its handles and slid the knife back into the holster strapped to her thigh. She stepped over the bleeding bouncer and into the club, a sawed-off shotgun hidden under her coat. Strobe lights flashed and heavy, techo music blasted out the club's speakers. She navigated through the jumping and bumping throng of people towards the club's back offices.

A few hundred feet away, Carlos Fring sat at the desk in the club's backroom. He had his pants around his ankles and a woman's face buried into his crotch. While Carlos ""relaxed"", twin brothers Rob and Roy James were busy at a folding table in front of the desk. They were counting and weighing the half dozen bricks of cocaine and marijuana that were stacked on the table.

""This all?"" Roy asked. ""This ain't nothing.""

""Times are tough,"" Carlos said as he titled his head back and closed his eyes. ""In a few more weeks we will have a full shipment. Relax. For now, get your people to...,"" Carlos lost his train of thought as the woman between his legs rolled her tongue. ""... Just, business as usual. Smaller supply, cut it more.""

On the main dance floor, Rachel started to climb up a flight of stairs when a pair of powerful hands grabbed her by the shoulders. She spun around and was brought face to face with a large, Latino man in a dark suit. He tried to shout over the music, but couldn't be heard. While he was shouting, Rachel leveled the shotgun at the man's stomach. The gun kicked in her hands and knocked the man back. The sound of the music masked the shotgun blast. The dying man tumbled down the stairs and came to a stop on the bottom step. One gyrating young girl saw the dead body and screamed before running towards the exit.

Rachel racked another round into the shotgun and turned around, quickly climbing the steps. Another guard was waiting at the top of the stairwell. Before the man could react, Rachel brought the butt of the shotgun up into his face. She drove the cartilage from the man's nose up and into his head, puncturing the brain stem. The guard collapsed to the ground, spasming from the brain injury that would kill him in a few seconds.

Rachel calmly walked down the hall leading towards the backroom. She was almost there when a black man jumped out and knocked the shotgun from her hands. The man drove Rachel into the corridor's wall and slammed up against her. The guard pummeled her with blows to the face. Rachel shook off the blows and headbutted the man in the face. The guard stumbled backwards and Rachel whipped out her knife, flicking the blade open as the guard charged. She took a glancing blow to the shoulder, but managed to drive the blade of his knife into the side of the man's neck. He cried out and fell to his side. Rachel loomed over him, her face bloody and bruised, and kicked the hilt of the knife further into the man's neck. He went to scream, but blood bubbled out of his mouth and ran out on the floor.

Rachel picked up her shotgun and kicked in the office door. Rob and Roy James looked up just in time to be hit with a blast of pellets. The twin brothers fell to the ground, their heads and chests covered in blood and buckshot. Carlos cried out in pain from behind the desk. The sudden shock of the gun had caused the woman between his legs to bite down.

""Crazy bitch!"" Carlos yelled. He rolled back and the woman underneath the desk popped up, blood and chunks of flesh coated her mouth. ""You bit it off! ¡Oh, Dios. Me voy a morir! Maldita perra.""

""Go,"" Rachel said, looking at the woman. She scurried off and Frank walked over to Carlos. The gangster held on to his bloody crotch and moaned. Rachel looked down at the bloody member laying on the floor. ""I guess it's true what they say about men with little feet... I had planned to shoot you, but I think this is worse.""

She kneed Fring in his crotch. ""¡Dios mío,"" the man howled in pain and dry heaved. Rachel grabbed Fring by his shoulders and bent down.

""Now that I have your attention, you're going to deliver a message to Don Eladio... He's next.""</div>"

Player Name: The New Yorker
Character Name: Matthew Miyahara
Moral Alignment: Walking the Line
Affiliation: NYPD (briefly with IA during recruitment), Columbia Law School, Lehman University

Character Origin &amp; Backstory

Matthew Miyahara was born to a brilliant scientist and a former Japanese Special Forces Commander, Beth and Hideo respectively. The married couple moved to the United States after a frightful encounter with Yakuza members in their home. In reality, Hideo was forced to move, for the sake of his family and his honor on the force, it was an order. When they came to America they did not have a child. In 1989 Hideo was 37 and Beth was 31. As soon as they landed on the rainy shores of Seattle they conceived Matthew. So they hit the road and headed east. Beth already had a job lined up at the blooming Fisk Industries*, and Hideo had family in New York anyway. They moved into a quiet brownstone in Riverdale and began creating a home for a toddler. Matthew was born in 1990 May, 27th in that brownstone’s living-room surrounded by family. And so he was raised in this family of three in the Bronx and so he was nurtured by his brilliant mother and strict father. Hideo was stern, certainly, but also very loving of his family. He thought of them, almost, as art, something he helped create with his blood, sweat, tears. And it was in his blood, sweat, and tears that he was forever snuffed from this world, taking with him a portion of the art that was his family. He was followed shortly after by his wife, some suggest she killed herself, Matthew holds that it was foul play, though no body has ever been found. By ’98 Matthew was orphaned and his grandfather and grandmother became his legal guardians, they were his father’s parents. 

Matts Grandfather Daisuke, known locally as Stick, was one of the first and only heroes operating in the Bronx in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s. He prowled the rooftops in light armor refitted with armor plating from a Samurai suit. The history of Daisuke is long and fantastic but very few know of it, and Daisuke never speaks of it. Matthew only learned of his grandfather’s alter ego through researching into the most obscure newspaper articles and tabloid headlines in order to barely scratch the surface. After understanding the greatness of the man he called “pop-pop” at the age of 13 Matthew was proud, he reeled, asked his Grandfather to teach him the intricacies of the Japanese martial arts. Matt was never old enough for his father to teach him anything and he was, shamefully, disinterested at the time. Matt felt like this would help him better remember his father, by consuming something his father held so dear. And so Daisuke taught his grandson the art of Jujutsu, Kenjutsu, Ninjutsu, and Aikido. 

By 14 Matt is enrolled in the prestigious Bronx Science, one of the best High schools in New York. By 16 Matthew graduates. Matthew was home schooled by his mother while she was alive, she imparted great wisdom onto him and fostered a feverish interest in knowledge in the young man. That most likely led to his successful academic career. At 16 Matt wanted to enter the police academy, he is turned down and is told to go to college instead, he does so. A full scholarship sweeps 16 year old Matthew Miyahara out of the Bronx and into Columbia Law School under incredibly special circumstances, he is to take supplementary classes at Lehman, near where he lived. For 4 whole years Matt devotes himself to his simultaneous BA in Political science, and Doctorate in Criminal pathology. At 20 years old Matthew Miyahara is a well-trained, Pathologist with the skills of a samurai. He gets a fast-track through the NYPD and passes through the academy with flying colors. During his internship in the Academy he works with Internal Affairs in order to help take down two crooked instructors, they ran a drug scam with some of the students. At 21 Matt is on the force and is not too well liked, he finds a dead rat in his locker at the end of his first month. Matt is enjoying his time on the force, almost a year in, despite his co-workers attempt at the opposite. Matthew responds to a call of shots fired at the midtown docks, a call that will change the rest of his life. 

Powers and Abilities

-Genius level intellect:  Matthew is incredibly perceptive, and not just in a strictly sensory way. He knows when things don’t fit, he can tell when something doesn’t make sense, and how the dots connect. He also has a huge wealth of information and knowledge regarding legal, political, and scientific matters. Beside all of that, Matthew is an excellent learner and listener. 

-Acrobatic dexterity: Matthew’s training with his grandfather has made him lithe and agile. He is able to make huge leaps, climb over vertical surfaces with ease, and perform acrobatic tricks. 

-Martial arts: Matthew is skilled in joint-locking, “soft skill” force indirection, stealth, swordsmanship, and all the other tiny skills involved therein. 

-Radar senses: Once Matthew is blind he gains the ability to perceive things around him by the use of an electromagnetic pulse radar which mutated in his brain. He isn’t seeing anything, just receiving feedback from this mutated electromagnetic pulse mechanism which projects images in his consciousness. 

Weaknesses

-Blind: Despite his extrasensory mutant abilities, Matthew is still blind. He doesn't receive constant feedback from this sort of echo location, so someone moving quickly and stealthily could elude Matthew quite well. 

-Emotional: Despite being a logical and rational thinker, Matthew can sometimes loose control of himself, allowing his emotions to run amok on his thinking. Revenge is currently an overriding element. 

Sample archs:

-Building the Man: Matthew needs to regain his confidence, reassure himself of his abilities and place in the world. Getting a job as a lawyer should do the trick. Here he starts understanding more about his radioactively induced mutations as well. 

-Building the Machine: Matthew begins his proper work as the Daredevil, setting out on a course of vengence to find the truth behind the killing of his family. 

-Building the Legend: With the hunt for the Kingpin behind him, Matthew and the Daredevil venture even further into the darkness in order to spread light. The man without fear becomes a Marvel Knight.

The crimson glow from the taillight speeds along the black road behind the white and blue steel beauty as it hovers past closed restaurants, and a doctor’s office, and a Starbucks. Matt’s bony hands clutch the steering wheel until his knuckles are white and his fingers are red. He quickly lifts the radio receiver to his mouth and clicks the button on the side. 

“10-4, I’ve got that, Stace”

Matt turned into 47th and let the car glide down the little road without any extra speed. Matthews’s partner held onto the dashboard like he was afraid he might go crashing through the window pane. He was a portly man who looked to still be capable in a fight. His white mustache crossed his upper lip like a badge itself. 

“Ease up there, cowboy.” Terry McGillan said quietly, not wanting to instigate. 

“It’s an emergency, Terry.” Matt said, smile on his face. He turned up into 8th and around another corner toward the docks. 

The two boys in blue exited the vehicle in proper police protocol when dealing with a shooting call, guns drawn. They eased up to the chain-link gate and tested it, it didn’t open. 

“Ah, damnit, don’t tell me I gotta hop this goddamn fence.” Terry blurted, holding his gun to his side like some kind of play thing. 

Matt holstered his gun, and without saying a word, mounted the fence. He flopped onto the other side unscathed and went to retrieve the keys that were likely in the guard house a few feet away. He wasn’t even near it before he heard a single gun-shot, then another. A white flash illuminated the far off dock and Matt could see some standing figures etched in the distance. He sprinted down the concrete road to the dock and the gunshots. 

“Hey! Hey, hold it! Wait for back up, boy!” Terry screamed behind Matt as he dashed down the pavement.  “Son of a bitch—“ he whispered to himself, half-running to the radio in the car. He called in back-up in rushed, yet professional tones.  

Matthew’s sprint was even and fast as all hell. His pistol was in his hand, his index finger readily extended near the trigger. Now that he was closer Matt could see two standing figures, drenched in the shadows of the sepia colored lamplight. One tossed a body into the river and the other held what looked to be a bat. On the ground were three bodies, laid out like dolls, a woman kneeled like an angel under the bat-wielders shadow. Matt quickly stopped in place, no more than 25 feet from the scene and pointed his gun forward. He was sweating a little and his vision shook but his hand was gratefully steady. The barrel lined up with the chest of the man holding the bat. The man lifted the bat behind his head and twisted his body. 

“Freeze! Right now! Police!” Matt’s voice was load, clear, commanding. He felt a rush of adrenaline, the confidence gleamed from his badge and gun. He felt good about himself. 

The man with the bat let his bodyweight take over then, the bat swung around his body like a comet to a planet and crashed into the head of the woman kneeling. Her body slumped to the floor and Matt was certain he saw a piece of her skull skitter across the concrete. 

The man who was previously dumping a body wheeled around and his hand lifted from his coat. Matt shifted his weight and brought the pistol’s barrel to the left, his hand went a little too far and so he brought it back and fired. The man to the left twitched and almost fell to the ground, his gun hand dropped to his side and he fell to one knee. The man to the right, holding the bat, sprinted off down the dock lane. Matt fell to one knee and took better aim, just as the man with the gun, who remained near the bodies, tried to do. Matt fired two more shots, the second capped the man. Matt rose and sprinted toward the bodies. 

What he found there was a heart-splitting disaster. Two men and two women dead, all beaten and shot. Matt looked at the latest victim, most of her head was leaking onto the floor. He was drawn in by the gruesome display. It called to him, not just in desperation, as dead bodies do, but aesthetically as well. 

That single thought made Matt shiver, and he glanced down the lane to make sure he wasn’t being aimed at. But just as he turned away he saw something in her cold, pale face. She had familiar almond eyes. Matt searched her nametag only to be struck with utter shock. Miyahara was her last name, Janice Miyahara. His heart was pounding through his shirt and his could feel the pulsing of his chest. Matt stood, he was wrapped in his blues, the badge on his chest gleamed dangerously in the lamplight. Two more cop cars wailed at the entrance, the red and blue lights breaching the darkness. 

Matt sprinted down the dock lane like he’d never sprinted before, he was propelled by the thirst for knowledge, just as he’d always been. This time is was deep, it was emotional, and it was for his family. A figure just disappeared behind a truck, seemingly a gas truck, it’s metal cylindrical train shining. Matt approached it quietly, yet quickly. He turned the corner that was the truck only to receive a personal greeting from a bat. It swung in the air trying to hit is head, knocking the gun from his hands as he recoiled backwards. The bat swung into the trucks train instead. A big dent formed around where it was struck. Matt drew his billie club and blocked another attack. The man wore a leather jacket, corduroy pants. Matt smacked the guy in the stomach with his club and tried for the head. The man ducked and hit Matt in the ribs, then he grabbed the cop by his collar and threw him against the back of the truck, knocking the air out of his lungs. 

Matt thought about his grandfather’s training, it was always about presence. About maintaining a consciousness even when you should not have one, a presence. Matt maintained consciousness and so blocked the incoming, lethal bat attack. He lifted his club over his head and knocked the bat into the train once more, this time directly at the point where it’d already been hit. A small rupture expelled gas and then whatever incredibly dangerous toxic waste the train was housing. The waste completely covered Matt’s assailant, knocking him to the ground and drowning him in the stuff. Matt was able to get away with only a spray on his face. However, when he got the goop from his eyes, and it wasn’t painful to try opening them any longer, he did so only to find darkness. 

“I’m… oh, hrmm… I can’t see anything.” Matthew sobbed as Terry ran up to him, crouched on the floor. Both of their voices cracked with shock and despair. 

“You’re going to be alright, kid.”

“Fuck, Terry… No, no, no, no, no!” He screamed loud enough for every cop and pedestrian in the area to hear him. He yelled and no tears streamed from his white eyes though he felt like crying until he was dead. Spittle fell to the floor as he writhed and sobbed in Terry’s grasp. He knew right then that he’d never see again. Terry felt like he’d lost his son all over again, and so he cried when the boy could not. 

<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">*** Three months after the accident***</div></span>

Laudanum is a tincture of opium and alcohol, and is often used, recreationally, with hard liquor. It is an incredibly addictive reddish brown liquid, and some of the stuff sat in a snuff glass on Matt's nightstand. His head was hunched over his bare curved body. Some scars laced his back from days gone past, and the most recent scar was ever present, as it always would be. Matt lifted his head into the smokey air, his face bore the burned stains of a splash mark, splayed across his nose and eyes; <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> were a cold white, inattentive to the world. He grasped the glass of liquid dreams, and brought it to his lips. He tilted his head back and some of it dripped into his mouth when the door of his room was opened. Matt took the glass from his mouth and set it back on the nightstand. Karen Page stood in the doorway, her hands placed firmly on her hips. Her blue eyes pierced through the smoky darkness.

Karen walked into the room and opened the window blinds, releasing the bright, mid-day sunlight into the room. Matt could feel the heat of the sun on his forearms and across his collar bone. He quietly sat as Karen walked around the room, picking up bottles of liquor, loose clothes, and dishes. She took them from the room, purposefully ignoring Matt, and into the living room. Matt grabbed the Laudanum from the night table and sipped it. He was flushed with euphoria, then relief, then memories, then sadness, then shame, and finally anger. He smashed the glass on the nightstand next to him, breaking it utterly. His hand was immediately cut up, some rogue shards managed to cut is forearm slightly as well. Matt could feel the warm, sticky, liquid on his hand and arm, and was thrown back into sadness. He could sense the long corrupted tendrils of insanity creep up beside him as Karen entered the room again, annoyed. She looked at Matt’s hand in shock, completely confused about what’d happened, she quickly left the room. 

Matt stood, mostly naked, and began on his way to the bathroom. Karen bumped into him as he tried to leave his room, medical supplies flying from her hands; she allowed a small scream of shock to escape her mouth. 

“Get back in bed.” Karen said, after picking the medical supplies from the floor. 

Matt stood in the doorway, his eyes blankly staring at the space above her head. “I can take care of it.” He said softly. 

“There’s fucking glass in the cuts, just let me help you!” she almost yelled but managed to keep her voice down. Karen pushed Matt back into the room. She led him to the bed and sat him down. He was silent, tears welled in his eyes and he wasn’t sure why. Karen began removing the glass from Matt’s cut up hand, then cleaning it. He was able to keep the tears from falling. 

“I could have handled this on my own.”

“You can’t even handle getting high on that antiquated shit alone.” She began applying the bandage. “You should really slow down on that stuff.” Matt didn’t respond. “I come in here in the morning and you’ve already had a glass…”

“Why do you come here?”

Karen stopped what she was doing, stared into the almond shaped orbs of white. She didn’t quite know what to make of the statement. After Matt was released from the hospital Karen started dropping in to clean up after Matt, feed him, clean him, and most importantly, love him. The two had been going out for about three months prior to Matt losing his sight. Karen stepped up to the plate with magnificent grace and dignity. So, when Matt asked her the question, she made an insult of it. She stood, letting the bandage unravel at her feet.

“What are you talking about? I come here because I want to help you.” She said, before walking to the door and turning on her heels.  “You goddamn asshole. If you think I come here so you can just insult me, then fuck me like some street corner slut you have another thing coming!” 

Matt stood quickly, furry in his blind eyes, “I never said that, Karen.”

“It’s the shit you don’t say that’s more fucked up.” This time she yelled

“I’m sorry.” Is all he could manage. 

“Oh, yeah. So you just apologize and what? Am I supposed to feel sorry for you? Take all your shit then brush it off?” Matt remained quiet. “You just want to me fall into your arms?” Karen walked forward to push Matt on the bed, anger streaming from her cold, blue eyes. Matt suddenly saw the outline of what he knew Karen to look like. He smiled for a moment, caught one of Karen’s flailing hands. She looked up at him, her bright blues reflecting the beating sun, scowled, and started slapping Matt in the head. “You cocky bastard.” 

The thoughts in Matt’s head raced a mile a minute. What was that? Was it a flashback? A hallucination? Can the blind sometimes catch glimpses of the world? Whatever the case, he would have to do plenty of research. Matt grabbed Karen’s other hand from the air and wrapped her arms around him. Her pallid cheek met Matt’s hard chest and for a while she was still angry. Then she noticed that their heartbeats were in-synch, then she wasn’t so angry. Matt fell to the bed hugging Karen, they sat there for a few moments. Karen stared at the slowly setting sun, Matt couldn’t help but continue running the questions in his head.

Soon Karen and Matt were kissing, then they were laying down, passion overtaking them.</div></div></div>"

From what he has gathered from service files, he has served with the military and S.H.I.E.L.D. all of his adult life. He served in the US military in 1990s, particularly in the Gulf War. When he showed a perchance for stealth and close-combat in the field, he graduated from basic infantry to Covert Ops over his tenure and upon returning home from service, was offered a place at S.H.I.E.L.D. where he ran several successful missions. His most recent run was an undercover stint in the Crime Syndicate in New York, where he gathered valuable intel on the gang’s current objectives. Prior to the incident that lead to his condition, he had just begun serving as S.H.I.E.L.D.’s chief hand-to-hand trainer.</div></div>

Masters volunteered to be the test subject. Repeated testing showed that Masters had developed the ability to memorise and duplicate any person’s movements merely by watching them. The side effects of the experiment were that this memorisation ability came at the cost of his personal memory. Masters began forgetting where he was, what the testing was for, even who he was. In order to bypass this, S.H.I.E.L.D. inserted a syntho-organic, micro-data storage device into his brain, that was linked to it but could not store or erase new memories from it, only access the ones stored on it. Masters has direct access to this device so he can manage what specific memories he retains. As a result, Masters requested that he put back on active duty under the new code name: Taskmaster.</div></div>

Photographic Reflex Memory: Ability to duplicate almost any physical act that he sees done by someone else only once. This includes combat movements, sleight of hand, practice-based exercises (e.g. piano), marksmanship, archery, gymnastics and aerobatics. A side effect of the photographic reflex is that the speed at which the techniques are observed can affect his movements, increasing in velocity, giving him a burst of near-superhuman speed. He has also discovered that he can copy the vocal muscle movements of others to mimic their voice patterns. 
2.	Superior Athletic Capabilities: Taskmaster is a naturally athletic individual who has trained his body to near peak-perfection, even rivalling many superpowered heroes and villains in terms of athleticism and physical conditioning.
3.	Expert Tactician: His years of Army, Covert and S.H.I.E.L.D. service have shown Masters a myriad of different tactical strategies and procedures.
4.	Equipment: Taskmaster utilises a variety of S.H.I.E.L.D. tech, depending on the mission at hand. No matter the mission, he always carries the same equipment: a pair of SW1911, custom-built in black often with silencers attached and a modern double-edged shortsword, based on the classical xiphos used by the Greeks, updated with a modern grip and metal blade,a mix of titanium and secondary adamantium for cost-effectiveness. He also wears a custom bodysuit uniform, made of a prototype fibre mix similar to Kevlar but much thinner and elastic to allow easier hand-to-hand combat. Taskmaster made some personal modifications to the suit, reinforcing the forearm and shin pads to allow harder strikes and protect better when blocking. He also added a face mask to hide his identity, induce fear in his rivals and because one of his pupils thought “thought it looked cool”.</div></div>

Full Physical Duplication: Taskmaster cannot copy a feat that requires a power to accomplish. E.g. he may observe someone lifting a huge weight and be able to duplicate the correct movements but cannot replicate the superhuman strength to fully accomplish the act.
2.	Energy/Projectile Duplication: Cannot duplicate any energy/projectile capabilities for the same underlying reasons.
3.	Underlying Disciplines: He can mimic certain actions but not actions that occur after or are connected to the action. For example, he can mimic a dive into water but not how to swim (unless he observes the swimming action) or mimicking a song that he observed on the piano but he cannot compose his own as he does not know the musical scales.
4.	Random Amnesia: When Taskmaster copies a new action, it copies over old personal memories (except those saved in his organo-drive) However the organo-drive can only hold a small amount of information as, due to the intricacy of the surgical procedure, the device could not be that large. So if Taskmaster learns new information, then duplicates a new action, this may copy over the new information. The override is random in what memories it goes over.</div></div>

I feel Taskmaster fits into the former. I became fascinated with Taskmaster after learning of him through the Deadpool comics. I feel he would be an excellent character to play in the roleplay as his backstory is very vague and he is one character who has not been revisited and rehashed to death, meaning many avenues have not been explored and I intend to do this.</div></div>

He tried raising his arms, feeling they were heavy. He looked down and saw straps wrapped around his wrists, securing him to the metallic chair. He tugged helplessly, the chair bolted to the floor, a blank steel table in front of him. Panic rose in his chest, his head darting side to side and taking in his surroundings. 

	The room was dark, covered in shadows except for the area around the table, which was glowing with a white light, highlighting every feature in his eye line. His breathing quickened with each new question that crossed his mind:
<span class=""bb-i"">Where am I?</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Who’s taken me? Why?</span>
	Then a more terrifying question popped up, causing him to go rigid with fear:
<span class=""bb-i"">Who am <span class=""bb-b"">I</span>?</span>
	That’s when the screaming started. He tugged and rocked in the immovable chair, screaming for help at the top of his lungs.

“Help!! Someone help me please?! Where am I?!”

A door behind him opened, flooding the wall in front of him with light. A mirrored panel stretching the wall gave him a glimpse of himself. He had short, jet black hair and a stark red bruise on his cheek. The door closed just as quickly as it opened. A sharp set of footsteps approached him from behind, stepping around him and sat down across from him.

	The man who sat in front of him was quite plain. He was wearing a dark suit, white under shirt and red tie. His hair was combed back and he wore a small United States flag lapel on his jacket collar. He looked him straight in the eye and smiled lightly.

“Do you know who I am?”

He tugged at his bonds as he begged for his freedom.

“Please, just let me go. Who are you?”

The strange man continued to speak.

“Do you know who you are?”

He began to panic as the strange man somehow knew what had happened to him, probably even caused it somehow.

“What did you do to me? Can you reverse it? Please…”

He continued to waffle for his life, his release or anything he wanted. The strange man laid out the file that was in his hands and watched him continue to struggle. After several minutes, he placed his hands on the table and quietly said just 3 words.

“Tony, please stop.”

Tony stopped struggling in his chair, staring at the man sitting across from him. The stranger had said the name so calmly and assuredly, it sparked something in his mind, a sense of…familiarity. 

“Is…is that my name? Tony? Who are you? Where am I?!”

“I’m Agent Jacob Strzeszewski. I’m the Head of Special Internal Operations for S.H.I.E.L.D. You’re currently at the Triskelion, the operations centre of S.H.I.E.L.D. Do you remember how you got here?”

Tony shook his head. That’s when he heard a noise behind him, a soft shuffling of feet. There was another person in the room with them. They moved around behind Jacob, sticking to the shadows. Tony called at the man in the shadows.

“Please, I just want to know what’s going on?!”

The man stepped out, the light flooding every feature. The man was grizzled, his face covered in old scratches and scars. A long, black leather jacket draped his shoulders and trailed along the floor as he stepped out from the darkness. His jet black hair had the vaguest trace of grey and a large black eye patch covered his right eye. The uncovered left was fixed on Tony.

“You’ve been through a rough patch, kid, but you’re safe now.”

“Who are you? What are you going to do to me?”

The man in the jacket smirked, reached forward and slid the open file across to Tony. The file had his picture and his full name with a classified stamp: ‘Anthony Masters’

“The name’s Colonel Nick J. Fury…and we’re going to give you a second chance.”</div></div>

Sample Arcs:

The Patriot Act: USAgent, Union Jack and Patriot are a rogue SHIELD team that possess tech and a experimental form of the Super Soldier Serum, that only has a short lifespan and have gone dark...

The Meta-Game: Taskmaster starts dealing with emerging new mutants/villains: Gravity, Hood, Typhoid Mary etc.

<span class=""bb-b"">Character You Wish To Play:</span> Karnak

<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Hero 

<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation:</span> Inhumans

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span> Karnak was born some time ago, when the self-named Inhumans were at the peak of their diversity and obscurity. The son of a priest, Mander, and an ocean biologist, Azur, and nephew to the once ruler of the Inhumans - Karnak was born into royalty. He suffered no troubles or aggression from others during his upbringing, and the advanced and mystifying machinery littered throughout the palace of Attilan were made readily available to him. Karnak proved from a young age how naturally smart he was, mastering the technicalities of such machines quickly and delving into various subsects of learning, such as geography, mathematics, and combat, while others his own age were still struggling with basic science and language. He studied in his father's religious Tower of Wisdom, where alongside general subjects Karnak was taught of cosmic deities and the religious outlook on factors such as chance, morality, and many others. Karnak was tattooed heavily on his forehead around to the back of his neck before his teenage years, showing apparent signs that he was a member of Mander's Order of Wisdom and a man of good morale and empathy. Though not entirely believing it as his father and other pious individuals did, the teachings still had a drastic effect on Karnak's life and pattern of thinking. Though very intelligent and skilled in fighting, Karnak was relatively anti-social. He chose not to attend mass events or communicate with the general populace of the Great Refuge, instead only speaking to his family - and he spoke little even to them. Karnak believed only he himself could understand his ways of thinking and progression, and so he decided not to study other people's various personalities or levels of intelligence. 

Cataclysmic events occurred for Karnak on his eighteenth year. His mother died mysteriously in an ambitious oceanic foray, further severing Karnak's void of sociality. Azur has been one of the few that Karnak truly trusted and loved, and he vowed then to discover one day what had happened to his mother out at sea. It was customary for Inhumans with known latent genes to undergo the process of Terrigenesis, that is, being exposed to ancient mists of an unknown origin to all but the ruler of the Inhumans. This process changed the subject, whether marginally or drastically, in both physical or mental ways, ultimately revealing the Inhuman's true form. Some were awarded wings, or had their mental ability greatly reduced, or were granted extra-sensory sight in return for losing the use of their natural eyes. Karnak was happy as he was, but due to the compulsory tradition he acquiesced and endured Terrigenesis. 

Karnak emerged an enhanced being. He had acquired greatly increased strength, speed, and endurance. His reflexes had been unnaturally improved, allowing him to anticipate and counter almost any move in a combat situation, and to go along with it Karnak became much more flexible, bestowing upon him moderate levels of contortion and acrobatics. Most importantly, however, was the skill of stress point detection acquired by Karnak. This was an extra-sensory ability that revealed to Karnak any object or person's greatest area of weakness, be it physical or psychological. From this Karnak could apply pressure to the point, thereby destroying presumably unbreakable materials, or breaking down a person mentally with mere words. Karnak worked on and mastered this skill, and the mental discipline he attuned to it made it virtually effortless for Karnak to use.
He changed finally in his facial area. Though it didn't increase his formidable intelligence, Karnak's skull grew upwards, bestowing upon him a huge forehead. This change erased any hair he had, though it strangely affected his tattoos - stretching and morphing them to match the shape of his altered head.

After Terrigenesis, Karnak was placed in a position of importance in the Inhuman hierarchy. He was a supervisor and benefactor to the scientific advancements of Attilan, and he was prominent in his father's Order of Wisdom also. Karnak was one of the first notified if a physical threat approached the Great Refuge, he could then utilise his unbelievable combat abilities out in the field.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span> Enhanced strength, speed, durability, endurance, flexibility, stress point detection, formidable intelligence.

<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Death at Sea</span> - Focusing on the unrevealed reasons behind Azur, Karnak's mother's, death. Might just be a tie in with the Atlanteans and Lemurians, and maybe the Serpent Crown? Would maybe need somebody roleplaying Namor, however.

<span class=""bb-i"">Attilan Under Siege</span> - Focusing on humanity's discovery of the Inhumans and the inevitable hostilities that come with it. Similar to Inhumans by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee.

<span class=""bb-i"">Rogue / Evil Inhumans</span> A rogue or evil group of Inhumans could leave the Great Refuge and emerge into human society, sowing terror and death throughout the less advanced race. Karnak could be sent out into the world to end their threat to humanity, by any means... 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Everything has a weakness.

Seemingly invincible dictators, ferocious beasts, the very earth itself, Gods...
Everything.</span>

Karnak sat cross-legged in the centre of an antique carpet, woven ages ago by deceased Inhuman seamstresses. The embroidery detailed the process of Terrigenesis, showing a naked man and then a woman pass through the shrouding Terrigen Mists. The man emerged a king, regal in his appearance, aura and mentality. The woman emerged a great beast, one resembling the fabled monsters of humanity's past. If this were a human creation, the king would have been struck by fear, naturally threatened by one whom was too different to himself. The king would have slain the beast and be honoured for it. However, this was an Inhuman creation, the society that embraced diversity and were enhanced by it. The detailing ended with the king and the female beast retaining their love for each other and exiting the Terrigen chamber hand in claw.
Karnak sat still, unmoving, his eyes closed and in a state of meditation. This time was part of the precious few hours that Karnak had free in the day - his position required constant reliance in many situations and so he was forever on call.
The Inhuman's large cranium was constantly at work also. He indirectly picked up multiple detections from all objects in the small room. The extra-sensory skill granted to him through his Terrigenesis never slept, especially not since the mental honing Karnak had subjected himself to in order to improve his abilities. It was a ubiquitous influx of thought that Karnak had had to deal with.
<span class=""bb-i"">The middle of the front right leg of the chair. The centre point of the tapestry. Below the faint crack in the large wooden door.</span> And Karnak himself... well, the first point of the mental improvement had been directed towards a passive immunity for himself to the power. Karnak preferred not to know his own inherent weakness, because if he did it would haunt him - and he would be unable to do anything until he fixed this problem. Yet, everything has a weakness, and everything has to have a weakness, so Karnak could not do that to himself.
Before he could think any further, a knock reverberated from the door through the room. 

""Come."" Karnak spoke softly, he knew that the Inhuman on the other side of the door would hear him.
The large wood door opened slightly, and a man in the guise of a young child slipped in. Terrigenesis had gifted him two gaping holes at the sides of his head, and now he heard most everything, no matter how quiet.
""Master Karnak, your presence is requested at the Council with the other Order members."" The man's voice had risen in pitch since his transformation, effectively travelling back through time to the man's childhood.
""Tell them I will not be attending this pointless convergence. Honestly, why we have to meet every three days, I-""
""With all due respect, Master, they... they were quite insistent."" 
Karnak swung his head around. The man child avoided his eyesight. He had been definitely more confident before his transformation.
""Now that,"" The Inhuman said, swiftly rising to his feet, ""Is peculiar.""</div>"

I was careful to not name any other the other royal family members in the application, because I thought if I introduced some and wrote about them, someone might want to apply as them and not like the way I did it.

Black Bolt I agree would be tough to write as, that's the exact reason I didn't do him and did Karnak instead. I wouldn't advise Black Bolt due to his limitations as a character, but maybe one of the other Inhumans? Gorgon or Medusa, etc. I was thinking of a cool arc for Triton because if nobody wants him I am going to use him as a secondary character for Karnak - directly tying into whole 'mother's mysterious death' arc.</div>"

I wouldn't advise Black Bolt due to his limitations as a character, but maybe one of the other Inhumans? Gorgon or Medusa, etc. I was thinking of a cool arc for Triton because if nobody wants him I am going to use him as a secondary character for Karnak - directly tying into whole 'mother's mysterious death' arc.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/eru-iluvatar"">@Eru Iluvatar</a></footer></blockquote>

Eh, he he, no. If I decide to do Blackbolt it will be because of his character limitations, not in spite of them. The only thing that's stopping me is how many characters I already have and plan to have. The only thing stopping me in the past was that there was no other player-character I could see him interacting with. I might end up doing it, I just need to see how hard it is to write for DD. 

Speaking of, I'd like to have a DD post up within the week.</div>"

The hidden birth was necessary to protect their child from the many assassins chasing after Logan. Even if Silver Fox left with the infant, they’d still be chased to bring out the beast known as Wolverine. Instead the family decided to raise the young boy, teaching him all the knew of the world but never of Logan’s past. Logan wanted to bring James to the Xavier Mansion and leave him there but, he felt this could be a new life for them. Unfortunately Logan would come to find that he was wrong. <br/><br/>As the young boy got older, Logan began to teach James about mutants and their place in the world. James wanted to know if he was a mutant too, Logan always avoiding if his child was. One day Logan forced himself to check if his son was unique like himself. During training, he pushed the boy farther then normal, telling him how trash he was and how much his mother would suffer if he failed, pushing James to a fit of rage. This act forced James to pops his claws, attempting to dig into his father. While James was angry, Logan was actually proud. From that day forth the training intensified.<br/><br/>Logan’s fears would finally come to fruition when Sabertooth would return to harass Logan. It all happened in a single day that faithfully changed the rest of James’s life. Sabertooth found them in their home while Logan was away getting groceries. The monstrous assassin brought along his merry band and they terrorized Silver Fox and her child. There was nothing they could do to stop them. James put up a fight, a tremendous endeavor, only to have himself broken and tortured for several minutes. Logan returned to his home, horrified at the sight of his wife left massacred and his son crying with blood all over his body. Sabertooth left the words ,”Weapon X” sprawled in Silver Fox’s blood.  <br/><br/>James was forced to stay with an old war friend from Logan’s past despite how much he argued with his father to take him. Logan had to go and find the individuals that took his family from him, that destroyed the happy life they had come to love and put a stop these assassins before they killed again. This was the last time that he would ever see his father. At age 15, James started Highschool in Midtown. They years slowly passed as James waited for his father to return, hiding himself away from people except for Peter Parker, a young boy that understood him, and Felicia Hardy, a woman who pressured him into friendship. They were the first to learn of his powers and soon it would spread like a disease after he stopped a bank robbery. James had prepared himself for the day that those who killed his mother and took his father’s attention would one day come for him. The wolverine flowed through his veins and any who wronged him would feel his wrath.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span><br/>Regenerative Healing Factor - Like his father, Jimmy possesses a regenerative healing factor. His powers first appeared when Jimmy was shot through the head by an assassin chasing Logan. The bullet wound healed in only a few moment. Due to lacking adamantium poisoning, Jimmy possesses a greater healing factor then his father.<br/><br/>Superhuman Durability - Whilst he lacks his father’s experiences and age, Jimmy’s body is highly durable. He was once caught in the explosion of a grenade while sustaining little injury. This is mostly due to his healing factor. Once he learns how to coat his bones with his metallic substance then his durability will grow. <br/><br/>Retractable Claws - He has inherited Wolverine's famous three bone claws per hand. He can form a metallic substance around his claws at will. His claws were not synthetically bonded to adamantium like Wolverine, but covered in a metallic substance secreted by his body immediately following the first time he extended his claws. The limits of the durability of his unique claws have been tested and yet to be stopped. <br/><br/>Superhumanly Acute Senses - Jimmy’s senses of sight, smell, and hearing are all heightened to some degree of superhuman accuracy. He can see much further and with greater clarity than a normal human, even retaining much of this clarity even in near total darkness. Jimmy's hearing is similarly enhanced, enabling him to detect sounds normal humans can't and sounds they ordinarily could but at much greater distances. Jimmy’s sense of smell is able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if they are well hidden. He can track a target by scent, even if the scent has been greatly eroded by time and weather factors, with an extraordinary degree of success. <br/><br/>Superhuman Strength - Jimmy possesses his father’s mutation and is similarly enhanced. Due to his healing factor and durability, he can lift 1 ton at max. <br/><br/>Superhuman Stamina - Jimmy is highly resistant to lactic acids and fatigue toxins, allowing him to exert himself up to 24 hours before fatigue sets in. He’s still growing so his limit may raise.<br/><br/>Superhuman Speed - Jimmy is not weighed down by adamantium which allows him to run and move at speeds superior to those of any Olympic athlete, and is capable of reaching speeds of 50 mph. His attacks are faster then the eye can see and he has blitzed a criminal before they could pull their trigger finger. <br/><br/>Superhuman Agility - Jimmy’s agility, balance, flexibility, dexterity, and bodily coordination are greater then the finest human athlete. <br/><br/>Superhuman Reflexes - Jimmy’s reflexes are so great that he’s dodged bullets at close range and kept up with Spider-Man. <br/><br/>Master Martial Artist - Logan has taught Jimmy various martial arts in order to protect himself including various pressure point techniques. These martial arts also extend to kenjutsu and 28 forms of Kung Fu. Despite his young age when Logan left, Logan has pushed his son harder then any other child due to his healing factor. <br/><br/>Expert Tactician - While not as intelligent as his father, Jimmy understands tactics and strategies at a higher degree then a normal human. His brain functions at the pace of a supercomputer and he recall any tactic to fit almost any situation. <br/><br/>Stealth - Not his best attribute, Jimmy was taught stealth for many different situations. He honed his training by stalking criminals and stealing test answers from his school without being detected. <br/><br/>Multi-lingual - Jimmy can speak English, Japanese, Russian, Korean, and Mandarin fluently. Logan felt those were the only languages that Jimmy needed to know.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.</span><br/>A Family Affair - With Wolverine gone, all eyes have turned on the next best thing, his son. From assassins, illegitimate children, homicidal clones, and former comrades, Jimmy has his work cut out for him. Maybe he’ll learn just who he his family is. <br/><br/>Coming of Age - X-Men want him. SHIELD wants him. The CIA wants him. Jimmy appears to be quite popular. When familiar faces return, he might just need all the help that he could get. <br/><br/>Weapon X - After meeting his “sister”, Jimmy learns about the facility that created the Wolverine and now his sights are set to them. If they keep making weapons then the world is doomed. Jimmy just can’t let that happen. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span><br/><br/>Jimmy stared at the venom symbiote covered Sabetooth. To think just this morning Peter and he were talking about hanging at the arcade all day and playing some Street Fighter. Now they were face to face with two of their deadliest enemies combined into one. Unfortunately for Jimmy, Peter lacked the experience to handle such enemies together and Sabertooth was more then enough for Jimmy. An oozing black tentacle soared through the air in the shape of a wrecking ball, striking Jimmy's chest. The force rippled through his body before sending him flying through the closest wall into the city outside. <br/><br/>""Damn it, Peter. Get up."" Jimmy muttered incoherently. Venom-Tooth grin was wider then usual and he slowly sauntered over to his prey, waiting for Jimmy to make his move. Car whizzed past them, people gasped at the hideous sight before them, and some were even on their phone making the 911 call. Suddenly one of the innocents took out a flash camera and nabbed a picture of Venom-Tooth. A second long distraction was all Jimmy needed to bolt from his position into a Wolverine Style lunge. With a snikt, the claws darted out from his skin causing Jimmy to roar like his father used to. <br/><br/>""JUST LIKE MY DEAR RIVAL!"" The symbiote screamed as Wolverine's son dug his claws into the symbiote's chest. The suit was harmed only so much as it contained Sabertooth and it's own healing factor combined, instead it began to move around Jimmy, spreading across his body slowly. ""ASSIMILATE!"" The symbiote spoke through his host. Jimmy trembled a bit in fear of becoming part of such a disgusting creature until a large sound echoed through the area and canceled out the symbiote's assimilation. <br/><br/>Jimmy back hit the ground first as he continuously rubbed his chest. A large shadow loomed over the young man and he looked up to see a white skull painted onto a black t-Shirt. ""Who are you?"" He asked with a confused look. The unknown man pointed the large rifle in his hand at Venom-Tooth, firing off several rounds. ""The name's Punisher and I owe your father.""</div>"

Fence, Remy's business partner and, well, fence, is down in the Bayou right now in my arch. I've noticed that you're a year behind right now. I'm wondering if that's a conscious effort, or perhaps confusion. Either way, if Anna Marie is still down there in a years time, in your arch, then perhaps she could be approached by Fence with this offer to help him and Remy. She doesn't have to do it, obviously, but I think it would be a cool interaction between them and would set up any future relationship between Anna and Remy quite well.

I'm down with that interaction, though. This first arc won't last that long, as it's more of an exercise in writing as her (since it'll take me a while to get into the swing of things) so after that, I can timeskip a year or so and we can work something out ^^

Alternatively, I could just change the date to January, 2013, so that the timeskip is only six or so months.

I mean, I'm not even sure if I'm right about the date. It does say 2012 in the OP but there seems to be some consensus that present day is some time in 2013. IDK if that was lost in translation during the transition between GM's, but it is significant, and I meant to bring it up earlier.

Glad to hear you're interested. We just need to find a way to get Rogue and Fence in the same place. Would Anna have any relations to former Thieves Guild or Assassin's Guild members. The groups are mostly disbanded at this point, but those who survived are still trying to make their way. Remy has a ""brother"" Fence is going to see, a beatnick thief with Robin Hood qualities. Perhaps Anna finds herself working with this group intermittently during her time as a vigilante. This means she can realistically be privy to Fence's offer to the brother, deciding for herself if she want's to help. I probably should have put this in a PM, but I'm pretty lazy right now, and this is how it came out. We can obviously smooth out the finer details through PM if you find this acceptable.

But, as stated for this RP, we can redesign the mainstream characters - and The New Yorker has already done that by changing Matt Murdock's name - so what if someone comes in with an application for Tony Stark, yet naming him Tony Burns or whatever?

When you say that Tony Stark, Reed Richards, and Hank Pym have been mentioned, are you talking about them appearing in Spider-Man's ""Powers and Abilities"" section?  If so, that is just for mainstream comparison rather than establishing characters.  So far, we do not have a Tony Stark, Reed Richards, or a Hank Pym.  Sorry if that confused you.  Naming those names (Stark, Richards, McCoy, and Pym) was just a different way of saying that Peter is super smart.

Also, I tried to keep as vague as possible on Iceman as possible in my character sheet just in case someone wanted to play him.  All I would want that player to do is have him in the X-Men and the Amazing Friends.  Otherwise, anyone could take any liberties with him.  That's why Iceman hasn't appeared in the IC yet.</div>"

You bring up good points. 

As I see it, the currently players should take advantage of the world they're playing in, using characters that they deem fit in as loose (thematic ambiguity), and yet consistent (use of characterization and personality) a manner as possible. In the instances where someone comes in to fill those roles, they would have to fill in the shoes you've left behind. It's impossible to strike a perfect balance between incoming players and current players, which is why I feel it best if we lean toward the current players, those who are most readily effected by the rules. Incoming players will just have to deal with the fact that Wolverine's later life story is settled, and that Tony Stark is indeed a playboy entrepreneur, and Trask is a corrupted snake. 

All this being said, the GM get's final say on stuff like that.</div>"

When you say that Tony Stark, Reed Richards, and Hank Pym have been mentioned, are you talking about them appearing in Spider-Man's ""Powers and Abilities"" section?  If so, that is just for mainstream comparison rather than establishing characters.  So far, we do not have a Tony Stark, Reed Richards, or a Hank Pym.  Sorry if that confused you.  Naming those names (Stark, Richards, McCoy, and Pym) was just a different way of saying that Peter is super smart.

Also, I tried to keep as vague as possible on Iceman as possible in my character sheet just in case someone wanted to play him.  All I would want that player to do is have him in the X-Men and the Amazing Friends.  Otherwise, anyone could take any liberties with him.  That's why Iceman hasn't appeared in the IC yet.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a></footer></blockquote>

Alright. So you're saying minimal exposition is allowed, but it's necessary to be particularly vague for the foreseeable future?</div>"

For example, in Dedonus' alone, Iceman is moved from team to team and given a backstory - and also characters such as Tony Stark and Reed Richards are mentioned.

But, as stated for this RP, we can redesign the mainstream characters - and The New Yorker has already done that by changing Matt Murdock's name - so what if someone comes in with an application for Tony Stark, yet naming him Tony Burns or whatever? Is this impossible now due to the continuity we are constantly creating with every reference? 

Also, if people want to apply as characters already introduced, will they have to follow the existing continuity explicitly? I took and am still taking measures to avoid naming any other Inhumans, I've been saying 'the ruling Inhumans' instead of Black Bolt and Medusa, so wouldn't it be better if others did that also?

And finally, with super-intelligent people like Reed Richards and Hank Pym being mentioned, wouldn't it be strange if - when we get to cross-character events that would affect the world in general - these people who are not being controlled don't show up, whereas logic would suggest they would?

You bring up good points. 

As I see it, the currently players should take advantage of the world they're playing in, using characters that they deem fit in as loose (thematic ambiguity), and yet consistent (use of characterization and personality) a manner as possible. In the instances where someone comes in to fill those roles, they would have to fill in the shoes you've left behind. It's impossible to strike a perfect balance between incoming players and current players, which is why I feel it best if we lean toward the current players, those who are most readily effected by the rules. Incoming players will just have to deal with the fact that Wolverine's later life story is settled, and that Tony Stark is indeed a playboy entrepreneur, and Trask is a corrupted snake. 

All this being said, the GM get's final say on stuff like that.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/the-new-yorker"">@The New Yorker</a></footer></blockquote>
For characters that have not been picked up yet, I would err on the side of keeping them vague so that others can pick them up.  I'm fine with Kal-El's application because it still allows a player to take liberties with the character.  Yes, they have to adopt Jimmpy into their character background, but they have free-reign with everything else.  This ""rule"" is really to protect the popular characters (like Iron Man).  If its a minor character, you can take more liberties if you are using them as an NPC.</div>"

That's how I see it. Like, I don't think it would be brave for you to even mention Black Bolt's real name, since he's such an important element of your story. If I ever make a CS for him, it would be my responsibility to accept that his name is already set, as are some of his other components. I think it would be incredibly arrogant of me to suggest that you have no right to discuss another member of a notoriously segregated section of society when your character is an important member in the aforementioned community.</div>"

I mean, I think we should take into consideration how popular some character are to determined how much we can use.  For instance, Iron Man is pretty popular (especially because of his movies/Marvel animated series).  For him, I would say don't mention him unless absolutely necessary because I assume someone, sooner or later, would like to pick him up.  However, for characters like the Inhumans, <span class=""bb-b"">unless others here are against it</span>, I would not mind if you took liberties with the other Inhumans.  My logic behind this is that I assume that a potential player would prefer to play as Iron Man over one of the other characters from the Inhumans.

Also, if worse comes to worse, we can just retcon stuff (especially if someone goes AWL).  That's the unfortunate side affect of using established Marvel characters over original characters (as can be seen in the <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/135-create-a-hero-rpg/ooc"">Create-A-Hero RPG</a>).  Unfortunately here we are going to have to retcon if someone goes missing, while in the Create-A-Hero RPG, we could just ignore the posts of people who pop in, make a post or two, and then disappear.

It is a slippery slope.

I have the intention of making Triton my NPC at some point, but I also am going to change Karnak in the way that Black Bolt is not directly involved with him, except for maybe the notice that he exists, for the point that New Yorker chooses to pick him up or not.

Also, I'm probably going to make an X-Men app, as the X-Men are one of my favourite groups (though I do prefer the offshoots), and to get in on those sweet X-Men collabs.

Speaking of the offshoots, is anyone interested in changing their inevitable X-Men characters at some point into the Uncanny X-Force strike team?

<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Hero
<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliations:</span> The Inhumans

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Bio &amp; Background</span>
At what some considered the new height of Attilan culture and societal stability, two of the greatest and most powerful minds bore a child, one of limitless potential and ability even so young as he was. His mother Rynda, Director and first chair of the prenatal care center and Queen of the Inhumans, had organized a project to subject her unborn child, still but an embryo, to the mutagenic effects of Terrigenisis. The baby was born with the unwieldy ability to absorb and disperse the electron energy around him. In order to protect the baby and others around him, Blackagar was put into a hyper isolation chamber and settled into an energy harness. This is where he would be raised for the next 15 years in relative ease, learning to control his powers along with everything else the Inhuman heir apparent learns. This is where his story of achievement and success ends. 

Unbeknownst to the prodigal son, sheltered deep within the Attilan Royal chambers, he had a brother, indeed, a twin brother. Maximus was paraded about as a trophy. He was smart, powerful, sophisticated, and docile, easily brought out during speeches or feasts. Everyone knew, however, that Maximus was just the opening act, simply an appetizer for the main course. Indeed, everyone knew this, except Blackagar himself. 

Max became thoroughly unhappy with his lot in life, his hampered dreams and aspirations. He’d been doing research, using his uncanny powers of mind control and astral projection in order to delve deep into the darkest secrets Attilan had to offer. And at the center of it, he found the Kree. Maximus conspired throughout his adolescence to find some way to usurp his brother’s position, and perhaps even that of his parent’s. Max learned that the tales and legends of Attilan being the Great Refuge, a totally isolated nation, were complete fabrications. The Inhumans and the Humans roamed the lands together at one point, indeed, some still do. So why should they be allowed to flourish beyond the confines of the bubble and Max could not? So, he devised a terrible plot to exploit this web of lies. If the people of Attilan were content with delusions and false pretenses, Maximus could provide better than anyone. Max went about signaling the Kree to the Inhuman’s location. He did so in such a way that the Kree would be at a disadvantage when they arrived, doubling down on his own people by warning them before-hand. When the exploratory forces of the Kree landed in the Atlanitc they were met by a bevy of some of the most powerful members of the Royal family and their companions. Max was among them. He controlled the battle like a marionettist, making sure both his mother and father were critically wounded, but also making sure the Kree were forced to flee. With the first strike of the invasion out of the way, the King and Queen in dire conditions, and Maximus coming out victorious, all that is left is to occlude Blackagar. With each attentive and caring mind clouded by Maximus’ incredible mental abilities, he is able to take the throne at the age of 16. With this seat of power Maximus is able to keep his parents disabled and unconscious while his brother is locked in a cell no one knows of. For five years he rules, and no one seems to notice that he’s not supposed to be there. Perhaps because of how easy everything is. Perhaps it’s because the Kree threat is behind them and in front of them at equal measure. Max cares not as he sips wine from his gilded cup in the throne room. He makes trips to the surface every few months without anyone noticing—well, almost anyone. The irony of the situation is that Maximus revealed himself and his plot to his brother, letting him rot in the cell with only his thoughts and a few scraps a week to feed him. Any attempt Maximus made to control his brother failed, as did his attempts to impose amnesia. 

For five years Blackagar lives in a darkly lit chamber, fastened tightly into an energy harness. He meditates in order to stay calm, retrieve sweet memories of when his parents would come to visit him. For five years he lives in exile in the Royal chambers. All the while he is periodically taken care of by his first cousin Medusa, a beautiful girl with the sweetest caring eyes, and rolling hills of crimson hair. On Blackagar’s 21st birthday Medusa is sent to feed the young man, usually aided by Maximus, who wipes her mind afterwards. This time, however, Maximus rushes off on an expedition to the Antarctic, leaving the two together without surveillance. On this day Blackagar will finally be free. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers and abilities</span>
Ambient Particle &amp; Electron Harnessing: Black Bolt's primary superhuman ability is the power to harness electrons. The speech center of his brain contains a unique organic mechanism that's able to generate an unknown particle that interacts with the electrons he absorbs to create certain phenomena that are determined by his mental control.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">		Quasi-Sonic Scream: Black Bolt's most devastating offensive weapon, and one of the phenomena based upon the particle interaction, is his actual voice. A whisper can level a city, cause distant dormant volcanoes to become active once more, shake entire continents apart and generate tremors on the far side of the planet. A hypersonic shout has been said to generate enough force to destroy planets. Due to the constant and extreme danger posed by his voice, he has undergone rigorous mental training to prevent himself from uttering even the smallest sound, even while asleep. Recently it has been shown that Black Bolt's scream is tied into his emotions, especially anger. This in turn would mean that the power of his scream would depend on his emotional state in at least some way. It would explain the somewhat significant difference of the power released by his quasi-sonic scream.
	Particle &amp; Electron Channeling: Black Bolt wears a metallic, fork-shaped antenna upon his brow that allows him to focus and channel his powers in more directed and less destructive ways. This antenna monitor's the speech center of his brain and allows him to direct quantities of the unknown particles to create controlled phenomena, such as enhancing his physical strength beyond his normal limits. He can also channel all the available energy he has into one arm for a single, massively powerful punch called the Master Blow. The exertion from this, however, taxes his ability to employ the energy to its full power for a short time.
	Particle &amp; Electron Manipulation: Black Bolt can also direct the unknown particle outwards without the use of his vocal chords. He can route the particles through his arms and create small yet vastly powerful blasts of concussive force. He can also form a field of highly active electrons around his body with a wave of his hand. This field can deflect projectiles. Black Bolt can also create enough iteration between the electron and particle energies to generate fields solid enough for him to travel over.
	Matter &amp; Energy Manipulation: Through an unknown method, Black Bolt has shown numerous times that he has the ability to manipulate matter and energy to an unknown degree. He has shown the ability to transmute the elements, turn water into ice, create multiple toys out of thin air by re-arranging the molecular structure, and was able to block the powers of others through his abilities; in turn denying them the access to their abilities.
	Telepathy: Black Bolt has strong psychic resistance, as evident when he was able to easily resist the mental abilities of his powerful brother.
	Anti-Gravitational Flight: Black Bolt can also harness the unknown particles his brain generates to interact with electrons to create anti-gravitons that enable him to defy gravity. By emitting a jet of rapidly moving particle / electron interaction by-product while enveloped by anti-gravitons. The anti-graviton field also serves to protect Black Bolt from the detrimental effects of rapid movement through the atmosphere although it's not necessarily needed.</div></div>

Inhuman Physiology: Like all Inhumans, Black Bolt's natural physiology grants him a number of superhuman physical attributes but because of the genetic tampering before birth, Black Bolt's physical abilities are significantly superior to most other members of his race.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">	Superhuman Strength: Black Bolt, like all Inhumans, is superhumanly strong. He is able to lift about 1 ton. However, he can augment his physical strength by channeling the necessary particle energy through his body. 
	Superhuman Speed: Black Bolt can run and move at speeds that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Stamina: Black Bolt's Inhuman musculature generates less fatigue toxins than the musculature of a normal human, even the finest human athlete. At his peak, he can exert himself for several days before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him.
	Superhuman Durability: Black Bolt's body is incredibly resistant to all forms of physical damage. Black Bolt is resistant to great impact forces, such as falling from a height of several stories that would severely injure or kill a human being unharmed. Black Bolt is capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, such as the cold in space, or the heat from re-entry.
	Superhuman Agility: Black Bolt's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Reflexes: Black Bolt's reflexes are beyond those of the finest human athlete.
	Superhuman Longevity: Like all Inhumans, Black Bolt has a natural lifespan that is at least twice the average lifespan of a human being.</div></div>

Also weighing in on the whole ""use of unused characters"" conversation, I think the use of more B and C-list characters is the best way around this, mainly because we may reach a point where no one has taken these characters up and we need them to interact with the world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Player Name:</span> The New Yorker
<span class=""bb-b"">Character Name:</span> Blackagar Boltagon 
<span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Hero
<span class=""bb-b"">Affiliations:</span> The Inhumans

<span class=""bb-b"">Character Bio &amp; Background</span>
At what some considered the new height of Attilan culture and societal stability, two of the greatest and most powerful minds bore a child, one of limitless potential and ability even so young as he was. His mother Rynda, Director and first chair of the prenatal care center and Queen of the Inhumans, had organized a project to subject her unborn child, still but an embryo, to the mutagenic effects of Terrigenisis. The baby was born with the unwieldy ability to absorb and disperse the electron energy around him. In order to protect the baby and others around him, Blackagar was put into a hyper isolation chamber and settled into an energy harness. This is where he would be raised for the next 15 years in relative ease, learning to control his powers along with everything else the Inhuman heir apparent learns. This is where his story of achievement and success ends. 

Unbeknownst to the prodigal son, sheltered deep within the Attilan Royal chambers, he had a brother, indeed, a twin brother. Maximus was paraded about as a trophy. He was smart, powerful, sophisticated, and docile, easily brought out during speeches or feasts. Everyone knew, however, that Maximus was just the opening act, simply an appetizer for the main course. Indeed, everyone knew this, except Blackagar himself. 

Max became thoroughly unhappy with his lot in life, his hampered dreams and aspirations. He’d been doing research, using his uncanny powers of mind control and astral projection in order to delve deep into the darkest secrets Attilan had to offer. And at the center of it, he found the Kree. Maximus conspired throughout his adolescence to find some way to usurp his brother’s position, and perhaps even that of his parent’s. Max learned that the tales and legends of Attilan being the Great Refuge, a totally isolated nation, were complete fabrications. The Inhumans and the Humans roamed the lands together at one point, indeed, some still do. So why should they be allowed to flourish beyond the confines of the bubble and Max could not? So, he devised a terrible plot to exploit this web of lies. If the people of Attilan were content with delusions and false pretenses, Maximus could provide better than anyone. Max went about signaling the Kree to the Inhuman’s location. He did so in such a way that the Kree would be at a disadvantage when they arrived, doubling down on his own people by warning them before-hand. When the exploratory forces of the Kree landed in the Atlanitc they were met by a bevy of some of the most powerful members of the Royal family and their companions. Max was among them. He controlled the battle like a marionettist, making sure both his mother and father were critically wounded, but also making sure the Kree were forced to flee. With the first strike of the invasion out of the way, the King and Queen in dire conditions, and Maximus coming out victorious, all that is left is to occlude Blackagar. With each attentive and caring mind clouded by Maximus’ incredible mental abilities, he is able to take the throne at the age of 16. With this seat of power Maximus is able to keep his parents disabled and unconscious while his brother is locked in a cell no one knows of. For five years he rules, and no one seems to notice that he’s not supposed to be there. Perhaps because of how easy everything is. Perhaps it’s because the Kree threat is behind them and in front of them at equal measure. Max cares not as he sips wine from his gilded cup in the throne room. He makes trips to the surface every few months without anyone noticing—well, almost anyone. The irony of the situation is that Maximus revealed himself and his plot to his brother, letting him rot in the cell with only his thoughts and a few scraps a week to feed him. Any attempt Maximus made to control his brother failed, as did his attempts to impose amnesia. 

For five years Blackagar lives in a darkly lit chamber, fastened tightly into an energy harness. He meditates in order to stay calm, retrieve sweet memories of when his parents would come to visit him. For five years he lives in exile in the Royal chambers. All the while he is periodically taken care of by his first cousin Medusa, a beautiful girl with the sweetest caring eyes, and rolling hills of crimson hair.

Loving it. I did not reveal anything to do with the Kree, but I think with Karnak's standing in society a simple edit won't matter. I was thinking of a whole 'blue Gods' thing and then a reveal that they are cruel aliens, but I'm thinking of too many storylines anyway so it's fine.

Also, I'd really like to tie in a 'mental takeover' by Maximus with Karnak and his current arc with the escaped Inhumans. Perhaps Maximus affected the Terrigenesis in some way? It would be awesome for just the royal family to be the only ones left against a plethora of mind-controlled lesser Inhumans. You can control Black Bolt and Medusa and Maximus, I Karnak and Triton, and we can collaborate :D

I feel like Terrigenisis is one of those things no one wants to mess with, not even Maximus.Though, we could work something out if you're really interested in going that route. I just figured that as long as Maximus wiped the minds of everyone who knew about Blackagar, which is a relatively small number, he wouldn't have to work too hard to keep his place. I see him more as a spoiled kid than an evil dictator, though that will come. I like your idea about the family against the world though, I can see that working out. I'm hoping this will lead right into Blackagar's rise to the throne, something that comes with it's own set of implications. I'm excited for us to start collabing. We can work out the details via PM.</div>"

Good to hear! It should be noted that the Gambit storyline will be on a short hiatus while Rogue's storyline reaches a confluence with the former's. When that happens I imagine there will be a volley of collab's following. While we wait I decided to bring out Black Bolt to fill the void. I expect a few of my characters will have hiatus' like this, which I'm thankful for, but which also compels me to present one more character. I'm fairly confident that I can handle one more, but if anyone objects, I'd have to consider that, if at least for the efficacy of the RP. 

Barring objections, however, I'm considering a Baron Zemo CS. There is not a single PC villain character, and I think Zemo will be a really good universal enemy; enough that he can sufficiently fill in that gap, that is. Now that I've gotten DD &amp; BB out of the way, I can clearly see what path I want for Zemo to take. It is, however, a little overarching, which is why I'd need to hash things out with Dedonus. 

I'm thinking that the free-form nature of the RP lends to the concept of vastly different yet potent arcs induced primarily by the PC's actions and the player's imagination. And what I mean by that is: players can cause momentous shifts in occurrences (canonical arcs) within this universe on a whim, as long as it's partnered by sufficient excuse. 

This kinda ties in with the other conversation we were having earlier. Primarily in the context of ""how much power do players have"", I suppose. Let me know if I'm not making sense or if you need clarification. Be aware, however, that I don't intend to outline what I have in store for Baron Zemo until I'm allowed to present a CS.</div>"

While there is a three-character limit in place, that rule is there to prevent people from spamming multiple characters, make a few posts, and then disappear.

No, I was meaning to say earlier to include Gorgon as my team.

I didn't mention Blackagar, but I said that Maximus was the King. I also didn't say Rynda and Agon were dead, just that they were critically wounded in the battle. Also I figured out from your information when the battle would have took place and dated it.

That sounds good. Speaking of, feel free to point Karnak in the direction of this oncoming fight.

You’re welcome! D.<br/><br/>Character: Deadpool<br/><br/>Aliases/Nicknames: Wade Wilson, Merc with the Mouth, Cleaner of the Genepool, Weapon 11<br/><br/>Alignment: Whatever team isn’t beating the shit out of me at that particular moment.<br/><br/>Affiliation: I’ve been known to whore myself out to S.H.I.E.L.D., X-Force, Heroes for Hire, Secret Defenders, the Weapon X program, the Weapon Plus program, Agency X, X-Men (anymore Xs and you’ll find me in a porno!) and I’ve been known to pal around with Cable, Wolverine and Spidey. I feel it was a great honour for them to be allowed work with me.<br/><br/>Oh, and Bob, Agent of HYDRA. I like Bob.<br/><br/>Character Origin: A long time ago in a galaxy far far away……..<br/><br/>Wait, no. <br/><br/>The day my father Odin banished me from Asgard, I was bitten by a vampire and had nuclear waste dumped in my eyes. To make matters worse, my mutant ability to control weather activated just as I was hit by a blast of gamma radiation!<br/><br/>No, that’s not right either. Wait, now I remember!<br/><br/>Well, as near as I can remember, I was recruited by a branch of the Canadian government known as Dept. K into this program called Weapon X, a military unit composed of aspiring mutants or people with the possibility of becoming mutants (a la moi!).  I had cancer and they promised the experiments would cure it using this healing factor gene they had acquired from some other mutant, I forget his name. I was the 11th test subject and the only one who the healing graft actually worked on. Unfortunately, my healing factor more or less spazzed out and now I’m permanently scarred, nigh immortal and kinda insane. So they locked me up in their crazy house called the Hospice, I started dating Death (had to break it off, she was a little too clingy), broke out and then started my destined career as the World’s Greatest Mercenary! <br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Offical File on Codename: Deadpool"" type=""button"">Offical File on Codename: Deadpool [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">No birth, medical, school or even juvenile delinquency records of a person named Wade William Wilson exist before the 1st recorded appearance in Montreal, Canada at the age of 22 in a local hospital. He staggered into the A. &amp; E. complaining of nausea, insomnia and physical debilitation. The doctors surmised that the patient had been suffering with Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) for over 2 years. They were astounded that the young man could be fighting off the cancer for this long and still be functioning cognitively, due to the insomnia. It was a fight Wade was losing, however, both physically and mentally. He had become extremely irrational, erratic; from his blood tests, he had mere months to live. That is where Weapon X stepped in.<br/><br/>   As the U.S. was never big on sharing military secrets, the Weapon X program was developed to attempt to copy and match the U.S. Super Soldier program developed in WW2 by using emerging mutants to build a covert/assault team capable of handling multiple situations. Only 2 Original mutants signed up for the program: -name removed- (Codename: -name removed-: Psychic abilities; see attached file) and –name removed- (Codename: -name removed-: Healing factor; see attached file for further experiments). <br/><br/>  It was discovered by scientists working with Weapon X that there were 2 versions of the mutant X gene; the active version present in –name removed- and –name removed- and an inactive version, devoid of any changes to the host. Weapon X had begun scouring hospitals for potential volunteers. This version, deemed I-X, was found to be in Wilson’s genome. Weapon X approached Wilson with a proposition: He accepts membership into the program and we cure his cancer. He instantly agreed.<br/><br/>The results of the graft were mixed. The healing ability measured by our tests surpasses that even the original donor’s natural gift. His limbs could be reattached and in one case, even grew back of its own accord, by a process of -snipped for medical jargon-. However, the mixing of his I-X gene and cancer produced some negative effects appearance wise and he has taken to wearing a mask with his operations outfit. Also, as the cancer has somehow bonded with the grafted X gene, Wilson has been informed that while he will not die from the leukaemia, he will never be cured of it, as the healing will produce too many new cells and will literally explode. <br/><br/>   It has also come to the program’s attention that Wilson has become increasingly “unstable” mentally. This may be a result of the combination of the physical scaring, the false promise of a cure and the prior insomnia symptoms. The other subjects have taken to calling him “Deadpool” as the feel he may wash out of the program at any point and has even began calling himself this. It is recommended that –snipped for irrelevance-<br/><br/>Deadpool has so far been successful in training missions and marksmanship training with both Original subjects respectively. It is recommended that if he be cleared for duty, he be assigned to Alpha Team.</div></div><br/><br/>Powers and Abilities:<br/><br/>1.	Regenerative Healing Factor:  The mutant healing factor was grafted to my genes and has given me the ability to regenerate damaged or destroyed bodily tissue with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. Mine’s a lot cooler as it’s more powerful than usual, due to the cancer, so I can regrow missing limbs and even survive decapitation! Cool Huh?!<br/><br/>1a. Telepathic Immunity: Since my cells are in a constant state of flux, I’m apparently immune to telepathy and mind control. Kinda handy.<br/><br/>2.	Superhuman Speed/Agility/Reflexes: The healing factor keeps my muscles in peak condition, allowing me to hop around faster than a jackrabbit on cocaine.<br/>3.	Martial Arts Master: Wolverine.  Captain America. Mister Miyagi. Me. What do we all have in common? We can all kick ass, that’s what!<br/>4.	Medium Awareness: Hey! You! Yeah, you,  Denonus! You think I don’t know I’m in some geeky online RPG? You know who I am?!  I am the Breaker of Fourth Walls!<br/>5.	Equipment: Boy oh boy, do I have some “equipment”! Eh! eh?! Ah, forget it. Let’s see. I’ve got my teleportation belt, though I busted it recently and can only go a short distance, couple hundred feet. I’ve got my katanas (got 1 from playing Halo 3, very strange gift to get from a videogame). I’ve got a pair of ACP .45 semi-auto laser-dot equipped doorknobs*, and finally my magical satchel full of ammo and other stuff. Kinda like a woman’s handbag, it’s endless.<br/>*Handguns<br/><br/>Weaknesses:<br/><br/>1.	Deformed:  The healing factor also accelerated my cancer resulting in me looking like Sarah Jessica Parker.<br/>2.	The Cancer: My healing factor was designed to replace cells as fast as they were being destroyed. If my cancer is ever cured, I’ll keep reproducing new cells regardless and will become one of many obese Americans before exploding. Eww.<br/>3.	Mental state: Apparently, I’m “difficult to work with due to my instability.” Pffft, bunch of pussies, you kneecap 1 guy for a chimichunga and you’re “unstable”.<br/><br/>Why do I want to play this character?:<br/>Why? WHY?! Who doesn’t want to play me? Merc with a Mouth, ladies’ man, soon-to-be film blockbuster, videogame star and Crimson Comedian. I’ve got a lot to bring to the table and as soon as I figure out what those things are, I’ll get back to you……..<br/><br/>What do I plan on doing with the character:<br/>Meh, whatever I feel like at the time. Maybe I’ll kill every character in the Universe again, maybe I’ll buy you all takeout. <br/>I do have a few scores to settle however……<br/><br/>Sample post:<br/>The wall exploded, chunks of concrete flying across the room, dust clogging the air and a figure crashing into the opposite wall, hitting it with a bone crushing thud. He stirred, groaning in pain “Hey! Only I’m the only one allowed break walls around here.” Deadpool clawed his way to standing position, feeling his bones reset instantly, shooting pain running up his arms and legs. “Alright big guy, let’s try this again.” The wall burst out again, a huge figure stepping through, his skin a deep, raw red, eyes yellow and only a pair of shorts to cover……..well whatever was down there.<br/><br/>“I thought I told you to stay out of this Wilson!” The Red Hulks voice shook the air, his muscles pulsing as he stepped closer to Deadpool’s crouched body, “I’ll be dealing with you last, after I terminate the rest of your X-Force friends.” <br/><br/>“Rulky, Rulky, Rulky, friends is such a strong word. I’d think of them more as comrades, associates, people who get in the way of bullets for me, I mean where else can yo……Gargh!”<br/><br/>Red Hulk wrapped his mammoth hand around Deadpool’s neck and lifted the merc to his eye level. “Shut up Wilson! Now tell me, where Domino is?!”<br/><br/>“You know, red is a good colour on you. Not as nearly as good as on me, but still good.”<br/><br/>“Don’t make me squeeze any harder Wilson.” Red Hulk’s grip tightened, Deadpool’s eyes surely bulging beneath his mask.<br/><br/>“OK, OK, she’s………she’s……….” Deadpool gurgled and gargled his words.<br/><br/>“Where?!”  Red Hulk practically spat the word in his face.<br/><br/>“She’s hot.” Deadpool pulled out his ACP .45 and blasted Red Hulk right between his eyes. It wouldn’t even make a dent in Red Hulk, but at this range, it would certainly make him blink. He roared and released Deadpool, shielding his eyes and rubbing them furiously. Meanwhile Deapool kicked off the red beast’s chest, parried off the wall and vaulted over him.<br/><br/>“Tag, you’re it!”<br/><br/>He landed on the crushed floor behind him and dashed through the hole. “Later Red! This guy’s got a date! But not with Domino. Totally not Domino!” <br/><br/>“WILSON!!” Red Hulk bellowed out, his voice shaking the very walls that were left standing, his vision still slightly blurred as he twirled, swinging wildly and growling in violent anger. When he finally came to a halt, there were only 3 sounds he could hear. The sound of his own laboured breathing, Wilson’s distant laughter and an ominous beeping coming from behind him. He turned but saw nothing. The beeping was still behind him. He rounded again. Nothing. He realised that the beeping was him. On his back. And it was getting faster. “Tag……”<br/><br/>The explosion rocked the building. Those thermite mines Deadpool had picked up packed an absolute whollop and would certainly slow Red down. “What a waste of a good explosive. I was planning on putting that in Taskmaster’s birthday cake!”<br/><br/>Outside an X-Force safehouse in Tokyo<br/><br/>Deadpool slunk along the roof top as stealthily as he could. It didn’t help, however, that he was humming a generic sneaking tune with every move. He reached the vent into the building and slowly pulled off the grate. <br/><br/>*Now, to find Domino.*<br/><br/>“Hey! Where the hell have you been? I missed you, intangible thought bubbles!”<br/><br/>*Do you think now is the best time to reminisce?*<br/><br/>“……..We are so getting tacos together after this. Or Chimichungas!”<br/><br/>*I can believe I’m saying this, but focus!<br/><br/>…and we totally are getting tacos.*<br/><br/>Then Deadpool felt the familiar nudge of a gun barrel at the back of his head.<br/><br/>“Wade, tell me what you’re doing here or I pull the trigger.” Domino’s sly, silky voice somehow swapped between sexy and intimidating at the same time. <br/>“Dom, baby, you know you can’t kill me, even if you wanted to! You don’t want to, right? Right?”<br/><br/>“Oh, I know I can’t. But I know it still hurts like hell……..”<br/><br/>*Awh crap.*<br/><br/>“You said it.”<br/><br/>Do I know how to post a picture? Of course I……wait……wait, is this it? Did I do it?<br/><br/><img src=""https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTHglo4YwyhH6V4nqoAFJj1k4_Hm18nkzHJKOfDqYh01Jbcqvti""/></div>"

His father, Harold, was a chronic alcoholic who would beat Clint’s mother, his brother, Barney, and Clint himself.  His mother was no better, as she was withdrawn and unsympathetic, seeing her husband’s abuse of her children as a victory because she was not the one at the receiving ends of Harold Barton’s blows.  However, tragedy struck (or poetic justice, as Comic Vine describes it), when both Mr. and Mrs. Barton died in a car accident while Harold Barton was well over the lawful BAC.<br/><br/>	As a result of their parents’ deaths, Clint and Barney were placed into the foster system.  The Barton boys, as they were called, jumped from foster home to foster home until they were received by a certain Buck Chisholm.  Unlike the previous foster homes, the two Barton boys felt welcomed and desired in the Chisholm residence.  In fact, Buck and his friend, Jacques Duquesne, even allowed the two Barton boys to participate and even train for Renaissance fairs (or faires, as Buck and Jacques put it).  Clint got particular attention from the two friends, as they saw real potential in Clint’s archery ability, much to the chagrin of his brother, Barney, who felt that Clint was now absorbing all the lime light from their new foster parent.  Things began to look good for Clint.<br/><br/>	That was, until a few years later Clint stumbled upon Buck and Jacques’ scheme of ripping off the fair.  The two friends discovered that Clint was privy to the plot and they tried to get him to remain silent.  When Clint refused, as it was the ‘right’ thing to do, Buck and Jacques brutalized him and left him for dead.  If it was not for one of the other Renaissance fair actors finding the young Barton boy that night, Clint might have died that night.  Once this abuse was reported to child services, the Barton boys were immediately removed from the Chisholm custody (Buck and Jacques had gone on the run prior to this) and they were placed in another foster home.<br/><br/>	As time passed, Clint and Barney grew further apart from each other since Barney believed that Clint had betrayed their former foster parent, even though Barney was not receiving as much attention from them as Clint was.  Once they went to college, they went their separate ways.  Clint attended the University of Iowa (the Hawkeyes!) and continued to practice his archery skills, even joining a club team while at the University of Iowa.  After he graduated from college, he was approached by S.H.I.E.L.D. and <span class=""bb-b"">[SECTION REDACTED – S.H.I.E.L.D. PRIVACY]</span>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Master Archer</span>:  If anyone could string Odysseus’ bow, Hawkeye would be the one to do it.  Through practice and dedication, Hawkeye has mastered the art of archery, allowing him to make shots that normal people could never make.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">“Bottomless Quiver”</span>: From Taser-Arrows to Ice-Arrows to Boomerang Arrows (just for the laughs), with the resources at Clint’s disposal due to his employment at S.H.I.E.L.D., there is no limit to the kinds (and number) of arrows that Clint can use.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Peak Human Endurance and Strength</span>: Clint, due to his S.H.IE.L.D. training, is a fit and strong as any modern athlete.  While this might not be enough to overcome superhumans, Clint is athletic enough to overcome the average person.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Expert Acrobat</span>: Combined with his S.H.I.E.L.D. conditioning, Hawkeye can perform acrobatic feats that most ‘normal’ people could only dream of completing.  Again, just like his strength, his acrobatic skills are limited by what a fit athletic could accomplish.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses: </span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Normal Human</span>:  Hawkeye cannot take on another superhuman strength-for-strength.<br/><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">“I don’t kill”</span>: Hawkeye follows the “Good Guy Code”.  Unless it is absolutely necessary, Hawkeye never goes for the kill.  Hawkeye has a record in S.H.I.E.L.D. for the number of targets that he has brought in alive.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs: </span><br/>-Mockingbird: Since I figure that Black Widow would be a too ‘popular’ character to NPC at this point, I figured Mockingbird would do nicely in Black Widow’s stead.<br/><br/>-Hawkeye will allow me to have some direct control over S.H.I.E.L.D., which, as the GM, I probably should have.<br/><br/>-[WEST COAST] AVENGERS! ASSEMBLE! / Thunderbolts<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span><br/>	Hawkeye and Mockingbird stood waiting in the briefing room.  These two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stood out like a sore thumb amongst the group of the other agents, since they wore colorful costumes instead of the standard gray and black shades that the other agents usually wore.  Hawkeye’s attire event stood out even more than Mockingbird’s because his costume was almost entirely purple, while the later at least had dark blue accenting the white portion of her outfit.  “Hey, it helps prevent friendly-fire!”  Hawkeye would usually say in his defense of their fashion decisions.  But in spite of the flamboyance of their apparel, Clint and Bobbi still got the job done.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, another agent walked into the briefing room, holding several folders that he intended to issue out to the others once he had entered.  Once the files and folders were passed around, the man clicked a button on a small remote that he held in his hand, causing the screen behind himself to activate.   “Here is your next assignment, ladies and gentlemen.”  Agent Coulson announced to his fellow agents with a confident, but calm voice.  “This is David Cannon.  While we do not yet know whether the X-Gene granted him powers or if he used some other means, Mr. Cannon is capable of creating a localized tornado around himself.  Local authorities have been unable to stop him, so it is up to us to apprehend him.  Are there any questions before we set out?”<br/><br/>	“I have one.”  Hawkeye yelled out, grinning at what he intended to say, “Are we about ready to go on a man hunt after the Tasmanian Devil?”<br/><br/>	“Any other questions?”  Rolling his eyes, Coulson obviously ignored Hawkeye’s remark about how the powers of this supervillain mirrored the abilities of the Warner Bros. cartoon character.  “If not, everyone is dismissed.”</div>"

An influx of quality training had found him in the eastern European country. His father was a hired thug and his mother a pole dancer, yet coincidentally they both worked indirectly for a group of shadowy and relatively powerful people, whom had under their employ an elite strike force - whose task it was to establish and maintain the mysterious syndicate as the ostentatious rulers of Sokovia, and eventually beyond that also. They were to go about eliminating competition and assassinating prominent political figures in the country that were potentially threatening to the syndicate's aims. After Zebediah's father was killed in the raid of a rival faction's base, the then young child was taken by the employers of his father. Killgrave did not know what happened to his mother after his abduction, but it mattered little - he had a new, if brutal and unforgiving, family now. Several key skills and traits were developed in Zebediah from a young age to the apex of his teenage years - most notably the arts of stealth, firearm marksmanship and infiltration. Though the select few others trained by the strike force may have been overall better at combat and assassination, Killgrave was a natural master of espionage and acting. Zebediah could don a completely new persona as easily as one might put on different pairs of shoes - needless to say many targeted groups and organisations were oft taken down from the inside rather than the outside.  By the time the deceiving Sokovian had reached his late twenties, he was an irreplaceable part of the syndicate - now calling themselves The Shadow Conquerors - and the ringleaders of the ambitious group saw it fit to assign Killgrave an important task. The President of Sokovia and his government had ostensibly become aware of an organisation seeking to overthrow him, and they were acting with impulsiveness. An inside man of the Shadow Conquerors within the royal government had knowledge that the President was shipping in ample defences against oppressors, as well as expensive experimental weapons with potentially super-powerful abilities. He was also beginning an endeavour into strengthened security, which meant extensive background checks and interviews. Apparently, the President was scared, and he was wasting no time in preparing himself against the rising syndicate. <br/><br/>The leaders of the Shadow Conquerors, however, also used their time and resources wisely. A new position within the government had recently been drafted, and the man who came into the job only days before was mostly unknown to the bulk of the royalty. The same inside man who had provided the intel on the incoming weaponry had already introduced a knife into the man's throat, which meant there was a position for a man to traverse the government buildings unnoticed until the replacement was identified. A position Zebediah Killgrave with his talents could make effective use of...    <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#440e62"">Powers and Abilities</font>:</span> A trained marksman, adept at accuracy and stealth. High quality level of physical ability. A master of acting and espionage. [Iconic powers to be established in first few posts.]  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#440e62"">Sample Story Arcs</font>:</span> <br/>An Influential Tongue - The experimentation and consequences of Killgrave using his new-found power.<br/>The Shadow Conquers - The fleshing out and monumental step in power of the murderous syndicate. Zebediah may or may not oppose them, and they could take over Sokovia for good.<br/>A Purple Insanity - Focusing on the devastating changes to Killgrave's life and likely the fundamental motivations for his villainous alignment.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#440e62"">Sample Post</font>:</span> ""Some information has arisen which may be useful to you and to us as a whole, Shadow."" The heavily built and balding man droned. He sat before Zebediah Killgrave in a battered leather chair, which was fragmented by thin rips across the fabric's surface, most likely from the irritable picking of a man's hand over years of pondering and plotting. Killgrave was impressed, as many  officials of the syndicate that he faced were clearly intimidated by the mysterious Sokovian. It was an aura that Zebediah had learnt in the midst of his training - he knew the exact position and expression needed to convey an untargetable threat across to his conversational partner. It was mostly about shoulder tensing and eye movement. However, Ivan Jankovic was a man of experience, and one with a formidable defence against the subtle battles of conversation.  <br/>""I wish to be of use to the Union as best I can, sir."" Killgrave replied steadily, putting across mainly a sense of obedience. <br/>""And we have seen that your best is a damned sight better than anyone else's at your position,"" The colonel kept his eyes fixed on a flurry of papers across his desk, whether choosing to avoid Killgrave's eyesight or not the spy did not know, ""We have a more... fitting occupational area for you to reside in."" <br/>""Oh?"" Zebediah replied, adding a hint of curiousness to his tone. Of course he knew what the Conqueror was going to say because of the reason being that nobody would for long waste his skill in strike force of an incredible calibre. <br/>""There is a certain development taking place in a secure government facility that only you could take part in for us. There are those among us who have seen your tendency towards stealth and trickery as opposed to that of blunt force, and these skills will be absolutely vital in this circumstance. You do this for us, and I'll make sure you are awarded a position of power in the Shadow Conquerors, with your own subsidiaries. It should make life much more comfortable when you are at headquarters."" <br/>""And what does this assignment entail?""<br/>""Espionage, sabotage, possible confrontations with armed and alert government officials. You'll only have a short time to pull this off, and from the intel we've gathered it's gonna decide the outcome of our little standoff with the President and his lackeys. Our inside man, Potter, says they're bringing in some kind of experimental nerve gas, capable of God knows what. It can't be good for us any way. There's a position temporarily available but the ruse will wear off when you get close to the cargo. We need you to gain access to the area - which is half a building and an open courtyard out of your clearance, by the way, and unload whatever containers of this gas you can upon the bastards. This'll make it so they have nothing to oppose us with."" Ivan pushed himself and his chair away from the old desk abruptly, rising to his feet as he did. ""Potter can give you the specifics when you're there. So what do you say?"" He grunted and swallowed with a slight sign of difficulty. Zebediah could tell he had been drinking and was putting some effort into maintaining an air of sobriety and superiority. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">Concerned about me when I am at this position? Fascinating.</span> The conniving man thought to himself. <br/>Of course this was exactly what Killgrave needed to rise to prominence within the syndicate. Zebediah cast a slight smirk to his clean shaven face while looking Jankovic right in the eye. <br/>""When do I leave?""</div><br/></div>"

Bill was a cruel, abusive man, a man who only lived for the public perception, for power. He was a bastard of a man, who regularly drank, and beat Wilson and Helen. Eventually, he took it upon himself to run for city council, when Fisk was 12. He became increasingly stressed, and took it out on Wilson and Helen, and in the fit of rage, Wilson killed his own father to save his mother. Helen covered it up, and Wilson was sent away to live with relatives in upstate New York, on a farm. For the next several years, Wilson lived and worked in that small town, hating every living second of it. When he was 18, he left home and went to college, where he joined the boxing team. Earning a degree in political science, he graduated summa cum laude, traveling abroad to Asia. There, he began the next phase of his life. <br/><br/>|Travels abroad|<br/>It's unclear, according to the public, exactly what happened during his travels abroad in China and Japan, but what IS known, is that Fisk Industries started here, acquiring funds from investors with ties to the Yakuza and Chinese Triads, though nothing that could be concretely proven. Fisk then used these funds to start his enterprises from abroad, managing his business via telephone. It was here, in Asia, as well, that Wilson began his criminal organization, learning from the bottom up how to run organized crime, as well as innovating how it is run by his Political Science training.  After building up Fisk industries as a multibillion dollar business, and several unspecified dealings in Asia, Fisk returned home, a wealthy man. <br/><br/>|Descent into Crime|<br/>Fisk had been away for years now, a smart, wealthy businessman. And he <span class=""bb-i"">loved</span> his city, after years away, but was horrified by what his city had become. It was filthy, dying, desecrated, and Fisk knew he needed to save his city. But in order to do so, he couldn't just be a businessman, he had to dip his hands into the filth in order to wash his city clean. So he began expanding into organized crime, focusing first on his home of Hell's kitchen. Creating a small, but loyal gang, he ruled them with a fair, but sadistic fist; Failure wasn't tolerated, and neither were mistakes. Success was rewarded, Failure punished. Simple. Yet, five months later, his gang referred to him as Kingpin, and he was more than powerful; owning a senator, judges, and a large majority of the cops in Hell's kitchen. He truly was in control. But he knew even on his own, he couldn't get everything he wanted accomplished. So he began making alliances, deals with Madame Gao of the chinese triads, and Nobu of the Japanese yakuza. The Russians came in soon after, albeit much to Fisk's displeasure. <br/><br/>And this is where we meet him, Five months into being the Kingpin, Five years into being a covert criminal. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): <span class=""bb-b"">Expert Tactician</span>: Wilson has managed to cause a fair deal of the criminal activity of Hell's Kitchen for years without revealing his identity to the public.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Expert Combatant</span>: Fisk is a man of immense brute strength. He can lift a grown man into the air with a single arm. Despite having no formal combat training, Fisk's size and pure muscle make him a very formidable opponent. He was capable of using his strength to beat men to death with only a few hits. He is also strong enough to kill a man with only a few punches. He is also a trained boxer. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Multilingual</span>: Fisk is fluent in English, Mandarin, and Japanese.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: YEAR ONE: This story arc introduces Kingpin to the MU, based in New York, slowly forging his grip from the ashes of his predecessor, and dealing with new ways of handling the rising of both superhero and villain alike, while still maintaining a chokehold on street crime.<br/>DEVIL HIS DUE: Introduces Wilson Fisk to Matthew Miyahara, the blind lawyer of Hell's Kitchen, and Daredevil both as Daredevil's own story arc culminates into a meeting with the Kingpin of Crime.<br/>TOMBSTONE: Has Kingpin dealing with the return of the Rose, now joined by Tombstone.<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>The phone rings in the middle of the night, or rather, three in the morning, shrill and insistent. Fisk's eyes flutter open, and flip open the phone with a practiced ease; Late night calls are to be expected, a common occurrence for someone in his line of work. He rises from satin sheets and flips his phone open, expecting the other person to talk first. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Good morning, sir.</span>"" <br/><br/>""Good Morning, Wesley."" Fisk's voice is low and commanding, a baritone, but not too deep. He speaks as if he's not asking for, but rather expecting respect, even from his right hand and personal assistant, Mr. James Wesley. Were one to pay attention, one would actually see that Fisk even thinks of Wesley as his friend. Possibly his only friend. It doesn't matter, either way, as Wilson has never been particularly good at making friends. He waits patiently as Wesley informs him of the morning brief; events that've happened with his organization while he slumbered. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-i"">Sir, nothing much on the Triad's end. Gao's deliveries are on time, yet down 9%. Nobu and his men want more of the docks. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for more specific tastes. THey want a clear path to 33rd street. The Russians have been making quite a bit of fuss recently, however. They want a meeting with you personally. Today.</span>"" <br/><br/>Wilson Fisk gives an audible sigh, and lets his brain sift through the information. Nobu...the more they asked, the more he felt like Nobu should be eliminated. But the Yakuza were men of honor, of integrity, and they'd sworn him what he asked for, in exchange for what they asked of him. And the Russians...they were a different matter entirely. <br/><br/>""Give the Japanese what they want, and send the Russians to the usual meeting place. I'll be there at ten."" He flips the phone closed and does as he always does to start the day, making an egg roll and garnish, picking out a dark grey suit, and adding cufflinks. By the time he leaves his penthouse apartment, it's an hour and five minutes to nine o'clock. <br/><br/>It takes him another hour to reach the building, as is usual with New York City traffic. The building is actually a garage, one owned and operated by a subsidiary of Fisk industries, paid for by an offshore account in the caymans. His Escalade pulls into the parking lot, and he stepped out, a black overcoat buttoned up over a dark grey outfit. The two Russians before him are the Brothers. Anatoly and Vladimir. One dark haired and short, the other bleach blond and tall. Twins, they even share the same tattoos. It is Anatoly who speaks up first, differing in his demeanor than Vladimir. ""Good Morning, Mister Fisk. We want to-"" he is cut off by Vladimir, the angry brother. ""We want some F---- ANSWERS, you bald idiot."" <br/><br/>Anatoly is quick to backtrack, hoping to cover up his brother's mistakes with boot kissing. ""What he means to say is that Madame Gao's deliveries have been...less than usual."" It is here that Fisk speaks up, calm and collected. ""By nine percent, according to my numbers. The real question I should be asking here, is why did you involve me instead of Madame Gao herself? Unless, of course, you're afraid of her. Fear, I find, is a completely natural response to someone as well respected as Mme.Gao. So, you involve me because you don't want the reprisal to blow back on you in its entirety. You're asking the Chinese to up their production by nine percent and get their product out on the same time. And as of late, it's not entirely feasible with all these...costumed vigilantes cavorting about. So here's what you're going to do. You're going to pull back men from the street corners and concentrate your pushers to a single city block. Limited supply, limited demand. You will cut off your current regulars in this part of town and raise the price of a single purchase by 10 percent. Or I will be back to personally handle things."" <br/><br/>Fisk gets back into the escalade, and as they drive off, he turns back behind tinted windows to look upon the faces of Anatoly and Vladimir. What he sees makes him smirk. Anatoly has a look of fear and respect, while Vlad is simply angry beyond belief. <br/></div>"

Even though she was the eldest child in the family, her father, Joseph favored his two sons, Steven and Joseph Jr.  No matter what she did, whether Carol excelled at school or athletics, nothing pleased her father.  It almost seemed as if he expected one of his two sons to carry on the family name.  Even though his sons did not perform at the same level as Carol, their father still preferred them.<br/><br/>	During her middle school years, tragedy struck the Danvers family.  At the time, Joseph Danvers’ contracting business was barely staying afloat.  One night, Joseph Sr. was driving Carol and Steven home after their father had drank his sorrows away after a dismal day of work.  Since he was too intoxicated to be operating motor vehicles, Joseph Sr. caused a traffic accident.  While the other driver luckily left the crash relatively unharmed, his son Steve failed to survive.  Carol’s father could not accept the reality that his impaired driving caused the death of his eldest son, instead blaming Carol as the child who survived.<br/><br/>	Ever since Steven’s death, Carol’s father descended into a spiral of despair.  Now the bottle became his constant companion, even more so since the decline of his contracting career.  Sometimes, when business was not faring well and Joseph has drank too much, Carol’s father would come home in a drunken stupor, capable of beating what remained of his broken family.  While his two remaining children would occasionally feel the blunt force of their father, Carol’s mother usually was on the receiving end so that her children were not.<br/><br/>	Carol’s abysmal life did not end there.  Her junior year in high school, Carol learned that her family had only enough money to send one of his offspring to college and that her father had chosen her brother over her, in spite of her superior academic and athletic career.  For her entire life, Carol had dreamed of the stars, wishing to go to space one day.  She wished to become Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineer so that Carol could one day see the stars.  However, now her dreams were crushed.<br/><br/>	Or so she thought.  But at what costs?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Kree-Human Hybrid:</span> Through the experiments of the Brood, Carol Danvers is now a hybrid of the Kree and human species.  These experiments raised her powers above the levels of any normal human or Kree.  For instance, Carol inherited the Kree skin density, bestowing upon her near invulnerability.  However, since she is a hybrid, she does not need an enriched Nitrogen atmosphere to breathe.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Strength:</span> Due to her enhanced Cree/Human physiology, Ms. Marvel is able to easily lift 75 tons (average).  However, as she absorbs energy, Ms. Marvel is able to lift more weight, easily over 100 tons.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Speed:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to move at high speeds, easily above any levels a normal human could ever dream of.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Agility and Reflexes:</span>  Ms. Marvel’s agility, balance, and reflexes far exceed that of any regular human.  While concentrating, only villains with the fastest reflexes and truest aim will be able to land a blow on Carol.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Stamina:</span> Carol’s enhanced Kree-Human physiology allows her to continuing exerting herself at full effort for several hours.  Her energy absorption ability increases the upper limits of her stamina.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Invulnerability:</span> Ms. Marvel’s skin is able to withstand almost any soot of punishment, while her energy absorption defends her from almost anything else.  Bullets bounce off her skin like nothing, while larger armaments fare a little better.  Repeated powerful blows can wear her down, but weaker ones may sometimes go unnoticed.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Flight:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to reach Mach 3 while flying.  At lower speeds, she is able to maneuver in the air with ease.  She is also capable of using her own body as a human projectile, ramming into her enemies with great force.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Photonic Blasts:</span> Carol is able to blast photonic projectiles from her hands.  Her energy absorption enhances the power of these bolts of energy.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Energy Absorption:</span> Part of Ms. Marvel’s invulnerability is her energy absorption.  While her body can absorb any form of energy, her body is especially efficient in absorbing electric, light, thermal energies and radiation.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Minor Molecular Control:</span> Ms. Marvel is able to change her clothing through using her energy absorption powers.  She is also able to switch between her hybrid and regular human form at will.  These powers are easily used with the slightest amount of heat or light energy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">The Sins of the Brood:</span> Introduction Arc where the Brood kidnap Carol and perform their experiments on her.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">The Rise of A Marvel:</span> Carol adjusts to her new life as a human-Kree hybrid, using her powers to save Boston from countless threats.<br/>-<span class=""bb-i"">Avengers!  Assemble!:</span> Pretty much self-explanatory! :D  Still looking for an Iron Man character…<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sample Post"" type=""button"">Sample Post [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Carol gently closed her bedroom window, making sure no one would hear her leaving the house.  However, because of the ruckus that her drunk father was making a few rooms over, there was almost zero risk of her being caught by anyone because the click of her closing window would have been drowned in the shouts of her father.  Mr. Danvers was not inherently a terrible father, but one who had been plagued by bad luck.  Losing his son, coupled with his job, which was a major source of income for the Danvers household, would have caused anyone to spiral out of control.<br/><br/>	Once outside, Carol turned away from the house and rushed out into the darkness.  Before mass consumption of electricity and artificial light, darkness ruled the night.  Mankind was not terrified at the existence of monsters, but rather by its curiosity and imagination.  Monsters did not lurk in the night, but what if they did?  However, once artificial lighting became universality consumed by humanity, the fear of the unknown dissipated.  Unfortunately, the artificial light causes an effect that makes the stars in the night sky seem dimmer.  Even going out into a dark field will not be enough if there is a neighboring city polluting the sky with light.<br/><br/>	Even though the amount of artificial light did not make that night perfect for star gazing, Carol picked out the Andromeda constellation from the various stars twinkling in the night sky.  While she could barely pick it out, Carol could discern a dim light, which was actually the Andromeda galaxy, located right next to the “knee cap” of the Andromeda constellation.  While it is not the closest neighbor to the Milky Way (the Magellanic Clouds and a few other smaller galaxies are closer), it is one of the largest neighbors to our own galaxy.<br/><br/>	Suddenly Carol was blinded by a blaring light.  Has her father already found her?  However, Carol deduced that it could not be her father because of the direction from which the light was originating.  Instead of coming horizontally, somehow the beam of light was coming from above.  Carol reached down to touch her hand on the ground, but she was bewildered to discover that her hand did not feel anything solid underneath her.  In fact, when she looked down at the ground, she had already risen up several feet off the ground.  Panicking, Carol flailed in vain as she tried to get back to the ground.  Whoever (or whatever) was abducting her must have decided that the commotion that this Earthling was making was putting them in a vulnerable position to be discovered, forcing them to activate some kind of device that knocked Carol out cold.  For the rest of the way up to the alien space-craft, Carol did not make another sound, nor did her limbs stir.</div></div></div>"

With a scientist father and a stay at home mother he had the capability for a regular childhood. However even then he was being set up with an alter Ego. His father was often abusive, memories that he would often repress and while that in itself isn't extraordinary it is what his Father was doing to him behind the scenes that was what created the Hulk. His father a brilliant science in the field of radiation was often exposed to it in his daily life. Shielding was inadequate and without knowing he would become irradiated, that radiation he would pass onto everything around him. However these doses were not enough to be of concern.<br/><br/>It was when S.H.I.E.L.D used his father to study an strange crystal that killed all those who came in contact with it. They felt that they could use it to become the next major weapon, however before they could perform any tests Bruces dad mysteriously disappeared with a copy of the material. Despite the man hunts he has never been seen since, and all that remained was the grave of his Wife and his now parent-less Son. He went on to study, without knowing it becoming a child prodigy of his father.<br/><br/>Years later he would go on to become the lead scientist at the very base his dad had once worked at, on the very same material that his dad worked on. Finally making a bomb it was ready for testing, however as luck would have it the science was not right. The yield far greater than to be expected the bomb blew up, and the blast radius extended to the facility where they were monitoring the test. Nobody is really sure why, be it through some bioligical freak miracle or something deeper Banner survived the explosion, waking up miles away with no recollection what happened.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Hulk"" type=""button"">The Hulk [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Born on the day of the accident the Hulk and Banner have had a very strenuous relationship, to say the least. After being blamed for the explosion, due to the fact he survived, that claimed a military base Banner has been hunted. On the first occasion where the police caught him he is seen on Camera transforming into the Hulk and tearing the police vehicles to shreds, without killing anyone. They now believe they have the possibility of an even better weapon on their hands. Though Banner and Hulk have other problems.<br/><br/>Hulk sees Banner as puny, and just wants to be left alone. From the world, even from Banner. Despite the rage within him he often seems to be more at peace with most animals than with people... for whatever reason. Yet at the same time him and Banner are connected and to be left alone he cannot exist all the time so he often allows the transformation to occur only when Banner needs the Hulk to survive. Banner himself just wants to clear his name, and fears what the military could do with a power such as the Hulk. Having brief recollections of some of the feats, and seeing on the news, what he can do. He also wants to know what kind of relationship truly exists between the two of them. <br/><br/>It is an uneasy alliance, the balance of which is often tipped one way or another however with more and more heroes emerging it is time for the Hulk to find his place in the world, or leave it.</div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bruce Banner"" type=""button"">Bruce Banner [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">Super Genius-Level Intellect: </span>Doctor Bruce Banner is a super-genius in nuclear physics, possessing a mind so brilliant that it cannot be measured by any known intelligence test. Banner is regarded by Tony Stark as the greatest nuclear scientist on Earth.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Self-Restraint:</span> When Banner is the Hulk he can influence the Hulk's behavior only to a very limited extent.In a kind of ""Hulk/Banner"" hybrid.

However as he can transform in times of calm (later, not currently) this indicates that there is something physological as well as physical. Due to the reaction being often related to stress it is almost night impossible to physically wound him without the Hulk appearing.<br/><br/>It is not known how but when his rage subsides, or the ""Hulk"" relinquishes control or some unknown reasons the extra bodymass he gains during transformation is lost. As the Hulk his skin turns green and he turns into a 8'8"", 2,400 lb goliath.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Strength:</span> Hulk is best known for his strength that can affect his entire body. Though this is said to be almost unlimited due to varying factors such as the Hulks rage/stress/excitedness or indeed Gamma Radiation or Dark Magic fuels his strength. Though the physche of Bruce Banner can also affect the Hulk and can limit the Hulks strength, which is why the Hulk never actually kills anyone. Despite this the more enraged Hulk gets, the stronger he gets the less open he is to reason and the less coherent he is and the less he thinks about his actions. Which makes him dangerous, especially if he is against a certain target as he won't care about anyone/thing else in his way.<br/>	- This also extends to his lungs that are able to inhale vast quantities of air (Though he hasn't figured out this yet).<br/>	- Naturally this extends to his legs, allowing him to run great speeds for his size or jump vast distances.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Invulnrability:</span> In addition to immense strength, the Hulk's body possesses a high degree of resistance to physical injury. The Hulk has survived tremendous amount of punishment throughout his career. The Hulk's skin is impervious to conventional blades, Adamantium and Vibranium being strictly the few known metals that can effectively pierce and penetrate his skin. However other beings of immense strength, such as Abomination or beings augmented such as the Hulkbuster armour can cause some physical damage. Strong blows to the head depending on his level of rage can also knock him out, and while he is usually impervious to gasses/tranquilizers sufficiently strong doses in high quantities can knock him out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Regenerative Healing Factor:</span> Despite the Hulk's high resistance to physical harm, it is possible to cause the Hulk injury. If he is caused injury it is possible for him to heal the wounds at great speeds, however he cannot regrow limbs lost limbs unless he is enraged to levels that he has not yet reached or is victim to a high enough dose of radiation. This healing factor is also the reason it is hard to use tranquilizers to knock him out as his body tries to counter the drugs, and does so rapidly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Adaptive:</span> It is possible for Hulk to faced extende periods of time in oxygen-less outer space/under water without suffocating, but he is also capable of speaking in these enviroments. However it is theorised that this is linked to his level of rage and he has yet to experience this. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Increased Psionic Resistance:</span> In many instances the Hulk has demonstrated great psychic resistance as side-effect of his rage and the multiple personalities inside his mind. However it is capable, of using mental input to further enrage the Hulk or even enrage Bruce Banner to the point in becoming the Hulk.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>- Menace or Hero?

With a scientist father and a stay at home mother he had the capability for a regular childhood. However even then he was being set up with an alter Ego. His father was often abusive, memories that he would often repress and while that in itself isn't extraordinary it is what his Father was doing to him behind the scenes that was what created the Hulk. His father a brilliant science in the field of radiation was often exposed to it in his daily life. Shielding was inadequate and without knowing he would become irradiated, that radiation he would pass onto everything around him. However these doses were not enough to be of concern.<br/><br/>It was when S.H.I.E.L.D used his father to study an strange crystal that killed all those who came in contact with it. They felt that they could use it to become the next major weapon, however before they could perform any tests Bruces dad mysteriously disappeared with a copy of the material. Despite the man hunts he has never been seen since, and all that remained was the grave of his Wife and his now parent-less Son. He went on to study, without knowing it becoming a child prodigy of his father.<br/><br/>Years later he would go on to become the lead scientist at the very base his dad had once worked at, on the very same material that his dad worked on. Finally making a bomb it was ready for testing, however as luck would have it the science was not right. The yield far greater than to be expected the bomb blew up, and the blast radius extended to the facility where they were monitoring the test. Nobody is really sure why, be it through some bioligical freak miracle or something deeper Banner survived the explosion, waking up miles away with no recollection what happened.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Hulk"" type=""button"">The Hulk [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Born on the day of the accident the Hulk and Banner have had a very strenuous relationship, to say the least. After being blamed for the explosion, due to the fact he survived, that claimed a military base Banner has been hunted. On the first occasion where the police caught him he is seen on Camera transforming into the Hulk and tearing the police vehicles to shreds, without killing anyone. They now believe they have the possibility of an even better weapon on their hands. Though Banner and Hulk have other problems.<br/><br/>Hulk sees Banner as puny, and just wants to be left alone. From the world, even from Banner. Despite the rage within him he often seems to be more at peace with most animals than with people... for whatever reason. Yet at the same time him and Banner are connected and to be left alone he cannot exist all the time so he often allows the transformation to occur only when Banner needs the Hulk to survive. Banner himself just wants to clear his name, and fears what the military could do with a power such as the Hulk. Having brief recollections of some of the feats, and seeing on the news, what he can do. He also wants to know what kind of relationship truly exists between the two of them. <br/><br/>It is an uneasy alliance, the balance of which is often tipped one way or another however with more and more heroes emerging it is time for the Hulk to find his place in the world, or leave it.</div></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Bruce Banner"" type=""button"">Bruce Banner [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">Super Genius-Level Intellect: </span>Doctor Bruce Banner is a super-genius in nuclear physics, possessing a mind so brilliant that it cannot be measured by any known intelligence test. Banner is regarded by Tony Stark as the greatest nuclear scientist on Earth.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Self-Restraint:</span> When Banner is the Hulk he can influence the Hulk's behavior only to a very limited extent.In a kind of ""Hulk/Banner"" hybrid. It is unsure on how much they can influence eachother currently.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hulk"" type=""button"">Hulk [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">Transformation:</span> In times of great stress, rage, fear or anything that hormonally increases heart rate and increases physical abilities in normal human beings instead transforms him into the Hulk. However as he can transform in times of calm (later, not currently) this indicates that there is something physological as well as physical. Due to the reaction being often related to stress it is almost night impossible to physically wound him without the Hulk appearing.<br/><br/>It is not known how but when his rage subsides, or the ""Hulk"" relinquishes control or some unknown reasons the extra bodymass he gains during transformation is lost. As the Hulk his skin turns green and he turns into a 8'8"", 2,400 lb goliath.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Strength:</span> Hulk is best known for his strength that can affect his entire body. Though this is said to be almost unlimited due to varying factors such as the Hulks rage/stress/excitedness or indeed Gamma Radiation or Dark Magic fuels his strength. Though the physche of Bruce Banner can also affect the Hulk and can limit the Hulks strength, which is why the Hulk never actually kills anyone. Despite this the more enraged Hulk gets, the stronger he gets the less open he is to reason and the less coherent he is and the less he thinks about his actions. Which makes him dangerous, especially if he is against a certain target as he won't care about anyone/thing else in his way.<br/>	- This also extends to his lungs that are able to inhale vast quantities of air (Though he hasn't figured out this yet).<br/>	- Naturally this extends to his legs, allowing him to run great speeds for his size or jump vast distances.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Invulnrability:</span> In addition to immense strength, the Hulk's body possesses a high degree of resistance to physical injury. The Hulk has survived tremendous amount of punishment throughout his career. The Hulk's skin is impervious to conventional blades, Adamantium and Vibranium being strictly the few known metals that can effectively pierce and penetrate his skin. However other beings of immense strength, such as Abomination or beings augmented such as the Hulkbuster armour can cause some physical damage. Strong blows to the head depending on his level of rage can also knock him out, and while he is usually impervious to gasses/tranquilizers sufficiently strong doses in high quantities can knock him out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Regenerative Healing Factor:</span> Despite the Hulk's high resistance to physical harm, it is possible to cause the Hulk injury. If he is caused injury it is possible for him to heal the wounds at great speeds, however he cannot regrow limbs lost limbs unless he is enraged to levels that he has not yet reached or is victim to a high enough dose of radiation. This healing factor is also the reason it is hard to use tranquilizers to knock him out as his body tries to counter the drugs, and does so rapidly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Adaptive:</span> It is possible for Hulk to faced extende periods of time in oxygen-less outer space/under water without suffocating, but he is also capable of speaking in these enviroments. However it is theorised that this is linked to his level of rage and he has yet to experience this. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Increased Psionic Resistance:</span> In many instances the Hulk has demonstrated great psychic resistance as side-effect of his rage and the multiple personalities inside his mind. However it is capable, of using mental input to further enrage the Hulk or even enrage Bruce Banner to the point in becoming the Hulk.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/>- Menace or Hero?

The Utopian Parallel is a place that strangely exists far from all other worlds; out of time and the multiverse itself. It was created many years ago by a Godly entity known as the Demiurge, the sentient life force of Earth's biosphere who seeded the Earth with 'pieces' of its own life essence. Life didn’t stay like paradise for long. At the age of six, America watched as destruction approached her home, with a black hole appearing in the sky. Tragically, the hole was attempting to pull her home directly into the multiverse, which would potentially destroy all life on the Parallel in the process. America’s mothers, the guardians of the Utopian Parallel, heroically sacrificed their bodies and souls in order to seal the black hole.

Spider-man, Daredevil, you name it. It would seem that this wasn’t the case on Earth-212. Unfortunately though, there was however an abundance of so called supervillains. In America Chavez’s eyes, that wasn’t completely bad. It even made her kind of happy in a way. She finally had people to punch. Well people that deserved it of course! <br/><br/>This guy in particular was just your regular drug dealing thug, with the feeble man sporting what appeared to be an entire tracksuit. Obviously he didn’t own a mirror, which was surprising considering everything she had heard. From what she had gathered after “nicely asking” the local junkies, ol’ tracksuit here got his stuff directly from the main supplier. The drug in question? MGH. Mutant Growth Hormone. Powerful stuff. Just one hit could potentially give the user omega level mutant abilities. That enough was enough to get America Chavez on the case although that wasn’t the only reason. What intrigued and worried Chavez the most was that there weren’t any mutants on Earth-212. So where the <span class=""bb-i"">mierda</span> was he getting it from?<br/><br/>“I swear to god, I don’t know!” The man’s Brooklyn accent was clear as day, although that wasn't exactly rare considering there were around 14 different Brooklyns on this Earth. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh dios</span>. America’s patience was wearing thin. She had enough of this. It was time for action. <br/><br/>“If the next few words to leave your mouth even rhymes with the ‘I don’t know’, I’ll be breaking your fingers…” America’s eyes glared angrily into the man’s as she pulled his arm in between the two. “…one by one.”<br/><br/>“Listen bitch! I don’t…” Well at least she gave him a chance. The scream that followed masked the sound of snapping bones, with the drug dealer collapsing to the floor in pain. He wailed and moaned as he flopped about the floor, while America simply took the time to check her watch. Her attention snapped back however when he finally decided to talk.<br/><br/>“Alright… alright I’ll talk! I’ll give you the address!”<br/><br/> “That’s the smartest thing you’ve said all day, <span class=""bb-i"">Chico</span>.”<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">★★★★★</div><br/><br/>It was obviously a trap. Tracksuit back there had managed to phone ahead before getting picked up by the cops. Fortunately a group of 20 armed guards wasn’t going to be an issue for Miss America. She tore through the men with ease, easily breaking several bones in the process. Her prize though wasn’t all too exciting. Whoever was behind the drug production here had cleared up shop. By the looks of it, it had only been recently too. America swore angrily under her breath. All night she had been working this case, yet she was still no closer to solving it. <br/><br/>That was until she detected something off about the warehouse. The particles around her shifted awkwardly as if they had been broken apart. Of course! It was obvious now. Whoever this sucker was, they had access to the multiverse. All that frickin’ power and what do they do? Sell drugs. Absolutely ridiculous. If they were going to take the time to break the laws of physics, then they may as well do something decent for their efforts. <br/><br/>Deciding it was time to take her leave, America closed her eyes and concentrated. Focussing on the energy around her, she stamped down breaking the ground. No, not the ground, the walls of the multiverse. The star shaped portal shattered instantly, leaving a pure white decent into nothing. America frowned at the sight, with her having just detected where it would be taking her. Earth-76031. Perfect. Looks like she wouldn’t be having Korean BBQ until. It was the little changes across the multiverse that did the most damage in her opinion, like the lack of cooking skills on some Earths. Sighing, she gave one last look around at the warehouse, the beaten thugs and even the occasional glimpse of the night sky, before diving through the star shaped hole.</div></div></div></div></div>"

I don’t…” Well at least she gave him a chance. The scream that followed masked the sound of snapping bones, with the drug dealer collapsing to the floor in pain. He wailed and moaned as he flopped about the floor, while America simply took the time to check her watch. Her attention snapped back however when he finally decided to talk.<br/><br/>“Alright… alright I’ll talk! I’ll give you the address!”<br/><br/> “That’s the smartest thing you’ve said all day, <span class=""bb-i"">Chico</span>.”<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">★★★★★</div><br/><br/>It was obviously a trap. Tracksuit back there had managed to phone ahead before getting picked up by the cops. Fortunately a group of 20 armed guards wasn’t going to be an issue for Miss America. She tore through the men with ease, easily breaking several bones in the process. Her prize though wasn’t all too exciting. Whoever was behind the drug production here had cleared up shop. By the looks of it, it had only been recently too. America swore angrily under her breath. All night she had been working this case, yet she was still no closer to solving it. <br/><br/>That was until she detected something off about the warehouse. The particles around her shifted awkwardly as if they had been broken apart. Of course! It was obvious now. Whoever this sucker was, they had access to the multiverse. All that frickin’ power and what do they do? Sell drugs. Absolutely ridiculous. If they were going to take the time to break the laws of physics, then they may as well do something decent for their efforts. <br/><br/>Deciding it was time to take her leave, America closed her eyes and concentrated. Focussing on the energy around her, she stamped down breaking the ground. No, not the ground, the walls of the multiverse. The star shaped portal shattered instantly, leaving a pure white decent into nothing. America frowned at the sight, with her having just detected where it would be taking her. Earth-76031. Perfect. Looks like she wouldn’t be having Korean BBQ until. It was the little changes across the multiverse that did the most damage in her opinion, like the lack of cooking skills on some Earths. Sighing, she gave one last look around at the warehouse, the beaten thugs and even the occasional glimpse of the night sky, before diving through the star shaped hole.</div></div></div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I believe I'm finally done with the sample post and thus the CS!

Sure I feel like this works with a woman and Sharon would be keen.  I more see it with a guy personally for some reason.

When the big test arrives moleman essential screws with the system which causes the big failure, though reed never fi ds out and blames himself.  Plus Benjamin Walters comes to visit since his in school to be a lawyer (he was offered a spot in the future foundation think tank program but declined).  The group was going to stop moleman but the program loses a lot of funding because of the incident.  So Johnny brings up them becoming a superhero group as a means to re gain the lost funds.

She'd charged up enough electricity to stun the Hulk, but it was unlikely to be fatal or even leave any significant damage given the size of the beast, after all, shooting him with a fatal charge was dangerous to the civilians nearby, should they get caught in the blast. She hoped she'd charged up just enough to get the Hulks attention, or stagger him somewhat at the very least maybe she'd caught his attention enough to stop him tearing up the city.<br/><br/>She hadn't yet noticed Loki, as the God of Lies had moved behind where she stood, taking on the military might that, although they had good intentions, were only aggravating the beast further. The rain of bullets behind her, pummelling into the Hulk but doing virtually no damage seemed to slow to a halt.<br/><br/>Dwight stared at the spectacle, dumbfounded, jammed in the doorway of the cafe with other humans who were half cowering, half pushing forward to see what was happening. He'd never seen a real Asgardian warrior in action, even though she had no armour, it was an impressive sight. He was too dumbstruck to call out for her, to warn her to step away and not take on the monster, she'd been a relatively normal woman in all the time he'd known her, it was easy to forget that she possessed the power of Thor and was not a normal human.<footer>Spud</footer></blockquote><br/><br/>If you take these paragraphs out, you'll be able to port them over to the collab (Link above) may need to tweak them a bit but we've kinda got into the fight now :P<br/><br/>Rest looks good.</div>"

Wilson was in complete and utter disbelief. He believed in the program, however these candidates... were just terrible. He pushed a file forward. ""This one, ex-criminal turned S.H.I.E.L.D agent, turned criminal?"" He then pushed forward another one ""This ones just a kid in a pair of tights-"" Fury went to interrupt, however Wilson didn't give him the chance. ""These last two, one isn't confirmed to be a hero or even powered and the other one is literally the god of <span class=""bb-i"">mischief</span> that can't end well."" He sighed, before Fury spoke up again.<br/><br/>""You done?"" Wilson just nodded. ""I know you can handle these individuals and can shape them into a team, yes most of them are inexperienced, rookies even. Hotshots and lone wolfs but we need to pull them together-"" He pointed to the screen behind him which currently shown the Hulks rampage in New York. ""We need a team who can handle it when something like <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> or worse can happen. Also-"" He pointed to the woman wielding the hammer. ""That confirms that she is powered, and the other one is an unknown. Though she seems patriotic."" Wilson just chuckled at that. ""So did the people you sent Taskmaster to hunt down."" Fury just kind of grumbled at that one, being pushed by the Council to do things never ended up with the best results.<br/><br/>""I'm not asking, you're the one who can lead this team. You have the leadership skills, the training and the capability to do it theres no doubt about that. Just think what will keep happening if superheroes keep going unchecked, eventually we're going to get given the order to hunt them down and start putting them in cells."" He threw an additional file on the table as he walked out. ""Also, if it wasn't clear. This is an order."" Sam just laughed as the door closed behind Fury, before opening the file on the table.<br/><br/>""Oh Lord, not Barton.""</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>If him and America ever meet, I sincerely hope that you don't mind her originally referring to him as Falcon :P</div>"

The reason I mentioned it is I feel that something as big should have a bit more of a lead up than it did in the MCU. Where S.H.I.E.L.D was always there, tryna be the good guys.

Basically, how this would work is as follows:<br/><br/>-Some of characters will be 'stuck' in the Mojoverse, where Mojo is attempting to make our characters his slave-actors for his television empire.  Mojo will either try to trick the characters into staying by providing them with one of their greatest wishes (i.e. Uncle Ben is alive and well).  If this fails, you'll be kicked to the more, well, dangerous television series. <img src=""/smilies/lol.gif""/><br/><br/>-The rest of the characters will be attempting to discover why several heroes have dissappeared from the face of the earth.  Once they have discovered Mojo has them, it is these characters' job to help break out the captured characters (probably a good role for Miss America and Reid Richards, as both would have knowledge of transdimensional travel).<br/><br/>2)  For our version of the X-Men, what roster do you all prefer?

Their delivery, due to mistakes on the doctor's part, led to their lives being in critical danger when they were just hours old. Renowned surgeon and scientist Von Strucker approached them shortly before the babies were expected to die, offering a miracle solution in return for an undisclosed sum of money (rest assured, it was ridiculously large) and custody of the children should anything happen to the Maximoffs. Daria was suspicious and reluctant, but the urgency of the situation made the couple capitulate and the children's lives were saved. <br/><br/>Up until the age of eleven, the twins had a happy, healthy and luxurious life. Pietro was an inquisitive boy, interested in tinkering and taking things apart. He worked on small robots and programming, having access to the knowledge of world class researchers and developers in the related fields. Wanda was his protector, sharper and intimidating even at a younger age, and already priming herself for the rule of their parents empire once she was eighteen. The only person who received her softer side was her beloved Pietro. The two of them were closer than anything, and it was to each other they clung at their father's funeral. Doctors had declared his death to be due to heart failure, but after his passing, their mother became paranoid. Giving up temporary control of their business, she went into hiding with the children. They lived in a small cabin deep within the Sokovian forest until one day, about a year later, she died of pneumonia.<br/><br/>Shortly after, the children met Von Strucker. He introduced himself as a distant uncle, estranged from their mother but eager to take care of his beloved sister's children. However, the fact that their meeting took place after they had been snatched from their cabin in the dead of night did little to inspire trust. For years, Von Strucker took relatively good care of them, but their loyalty remained exclusive to each other. From the age of fifteen, Von Strucker started doing certain medical tests on them. When they turned seventeen, the nightmare began. They were subjected to awful and excruciating experiments that left them mentally scarred over the course of six months. At the end, they had barely survived. Pietro discovered his super speed, but Wanda was left comatose for months afterward.He recuperated while she remained unconscious, and in that time his anger and hatred of Von Strucker grew. Once he was in good physical shape, he was put through all sorts of tests by Von Strucker to determine the extent and nature of his abilities. Many were gruelling, but nothing compared to what had made him. To this day, Pietro is even mildly grateful for the tests, as they were how he discovered most of his skills.<br/>Wanda woke up some months later to find their roles reversed. Irreversibly physically weakened by her transformation,Pietro was now her protector. One night, after particularly painful tests had been conducted on Wanda, Pietro killed Von Strucker and the two of them escaped from his lair. Not so much a lair as a grand castle in the mountains where none ventured, but the name remains nonetheless.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The rest of his life"" type=""button"">The rest of his life [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Wanda intended to take over their parents' company, but all records of their existence had been destroyed and there was no proof with which she could do so. Instead, the two of them moved to New York. Pietro committed minor crimes in the name of making a living for him and his sister, but the unusual nature of the crimes brought them to the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D., who contacted them in much the same way Von Strucker did. In return for a comfortable living and the kind of clothing that could stand up to Pietro's stop speeds, they performed peacekeeping duties for shield under the names of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. They usually worked together, but on the only occasion they didn't, Wanda was killed on duty in Asia. Pietro, distraught and furious, blamed S.H.I.E.L.D. for their negligence and severed ties with them. He's still on their radar, and has reverted back to his mildly criminal life after tracking down the killers of his sister and eliminating them. Right now, he's a man without a mission. He lives in an unofficially unoccupied penthouse, where he works on his technical pursuits, and occasionally his sexual ones as well. Rarely, though.</div></div><br/><br/>Abilities: Pietro moves and thinks multiple times faster than any human. Currently he moves about five times faster than the speed of sound at his top speed. Experiments he's conducted on himself have enabled him to resist effects of friction, oxygen deprivation, and sudden impacts at high speeds. This also means that he's stronger and far more resistant that the average human. Time seems to go much more slowly for him, resulting in extremely quick reflexes and his impatient and abrasive personality. At high speeds, it even seems to stop, affording him immense advantages in his fights. Although not gifted, he's a highly competent programmer, and has made himself an expert on genetics and physics.<br/><br/>Story Arc 1: Eventually goes back into active service with S.H.I.E.L.D, but discovers that his abilities are deteriorating and taking him with them. Becomes a sort of quest to stay alive, with or without his powers.<br/><br/>Story Arc 2: Decides that Wanda would have wanted more for him, tries to become a hero. Here he would be a possible founder of the Avengers, trying to save the world from evil in general with his sister as a motive.<br/><br/>Story Arc 3: Pursuing his scientific side more, he comes up with an efficient way to reverse DNA damage and restore it. Deciding that heroes are more curse than cure, he takes it upon himself to get rid of the worst offenders. Targets include the Hulk and Spider-Man.<br/><br/>Sample Post: Pietro stood in front of the flat screen TV, watching part of New York City be destroyed by Bruce Banner. Or the Hulk, more accurately, although he didn't see much point in distinguishing between the two. He'd considered for a moment going to join the two figures who had eventually managed to subdue him, although his motivation was just the desire for a fight. He could hear Wanda telling him to do something with himself, anything other than what he was currently doing, which was nothing. He didn't need to work to keep his luxurious penthouse- S.H.I.E.L.D. had that covered, electricity bills, damages and all. He had no desire to stop old ladies being mugged or to carry out missions as he once had. No, it was much easier to do nothing. Staring at the TV, he recognized Loki, but didn't understand presence the feminine Thor or the small Hispanic girl who fought with her. To focus on them, they seemed rather heroic, but all Pietro could notice was the destruction that only worsened as the woman Thor focused her attentions on Loki with a look of fury. He hit his forehead in disbelief as they crashed into an office building. People were most likely in there, not that concern had been shown.<br/><br/>Sighing, he turned the TV off and turned to face the rest of his cluttered apartment. Surfaces. Surfaces everywhere. He had desks nearly everywhere, with different computers on each and papers nearly drowning them. He'd gotten rid of the bed in his room months ago, needing space for yet another table and another computer. He'd set up a holographic one in the second living room, and connected it to all the others. Some of the computers had work that was months old, and as such, obsolete and completely wrong.<br/><br/>Other: I can't add pictures at the moment because internet issues but for appearance reference Quicksilver from Avengers: Age of Ultron.<br/></div>"

Then there is all that ""Peter is the clone"" and ""Peter is not a clone"".  In my opinion, there are worse story arcs in the history of Spider-Man's comic career.<br/><br/>We have several characters avaliable.  For the Avengers, we have Iron Man, Black Widow, Ant-Man, Wasp, and Steve Rodgers (along with other members who have not appeared in the MCU, like Hercules, Black Knight, etc).  If you happen to pick the Wasp (Janet van Dyne), I just wanted to note that I wanted MJ to be mentored by her (hoping to introduce her ""so"").<br/><br/>We also basically have the entire X-Men roster avaliable.  I am willing to allow people to play as Iceman (so <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a>, if you really would like to play Iceman, put up an application).  Just note that since my interpretation of Spider-Man is taken from the Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends tv show, you might be restricted alittle.  For the X-Men, basically all you need to make sure you do is include Firestar and Iceman on the team (both, along with Peter, are the age of Juniors in High School - ~16-18 for those of us who don't live in the U.S.) and have Professor X as the headmaster.<br/><br/>My suggestion would be pick a character that you think you would have fun playign as (I know, I sound like a broken record).  Also, no one has picked a character from the mystical/magical aspect of the Marvel Universe (Dr. Strange, Magik, Clea, etc).  There are still a lot of options out there. <img src=""/smilies/sun.gif""/><br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a>: Hold you horses!  I'll ge to it...eventually.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/meridian"">@Meridian</a>: Application looks good.  Only two notes:<br/><br/>1) Besides Spider-Man and Thor (the former having recently 'teamed up' with Loki and the later being an Asgardian), the majority of people probably would not know who Loki is.  We could probably add Bruce Banner to this list because he too directly interacted with him.  I don't know how much S.H.I.E.L.D. knows about Loki, but <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/bright_ops"">@Bright_Ops</a> probably could provide a better answer.<br/><br/>2) On the ""power remover"" story arc, just note that you cannot cause these effects on another player's character without their approval first.<br/><br/>Otherwise, once your post says it has been 24 hours since it has been posted, you may switch over the application to the Character Sheet thread.</div>"

The Jackal's first attempt (which was sort of impromptu) was unleashing the Raptor (Damon Ryder), who was transformed into a raptor-human hybrid, against Spider-Man.  Spider-Man (along with Loki) was able to subdue the Raptor (and SHIELD showed up to take Raptor into custody).  Next, Spider-Man stumbled upon a bipedal Triceratops with metallic laser horns (blame the Japanese for it <img src=""/smilies/lol.gif""/>).  WIth the help of Hawkeye, Spider-Man was able to subdue the creature.  The creator of this creature has contacted Miles Warren and they are planning on meeting.<br/><br/>Bruce Banner was recently transformed into the Hulk.  He was trying to get out of New York, but ""Thunderbolt"" Ross and the Hulkbusters attacked.  Thor and Ms. America joined the fray.  Loki also joined and disabled the Hulkbusters' weapons.  Loki finally got Hulk out of there and teleported him to Australia, but not before a large building was severely damaged.<br/><br/>@Everyone else, is this a good summary?  Did I miss anything?</div>"

Basically Storm is a fireman and rescues Dr. Horton from a lab fire and exposes himself to the experiment of the scientist: Horton Cells. After days at work, Johnny bursts into flame for the first time to save fellow firemen and becomes a superhero soon after. <br/><br/>In a nutshell it makes Johnny Storm his own man and tweaks his origin. He could still be in an F4 if it happens cause Sue is his sister, but now it'd give somebody a chance to make Doom the 4th rather than 5th man aboard Richards' spacecraft. Or maybe somebody else could be aboard to make their origin a little more interesting, like Mole Man or Quasar...<br/><br/>^^^ Would something like that work?<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Seeking balance and tipping scales where need be, the restless mystic casts his shadow over many planes. <br/><br/>Despite the phantasmagoric worlds and places he frequents, planet earth remains his rightful home. Respite from otherworldly travels comes in the form of his other identity. In New York's Hell's Kitchen, tucked deep in a maze-like alleyway, Dr. Stephen Strange runs a medical clinic open to everyone - civilians, creatures, ghosts, heroes and even villains. <br/><br/>It is within this Sanctum Sanctorum, where all must abide by his rules of neutrality, lest they wish the worst of consequences from a man capable of summoning unspeakable things with but a thought.<br/><br/>The exact location of the Sanctum Sanctorum clinic cannot be directly pinpointed. To seek its refuge, one must truly be in need of help. If you are worthy, you are drawn onto its path in a misty haze, and when your time at the clinic has reached its end, you awake elsewhere as if it were a fleeting dream.</div></div> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities</span></span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">The complete catalogue of the mystic arts are at Stephen's disposal, but because the doctor often spreads himself across the multiverse at once via astral projection, the full scope of his powers are rarely exhibited on earth. To avoid burning himself out, Strange uses special equipment enchanted by the godly trinity of the Vishanti. Weapons are rarely on his person as they're usually summoned from a secret dimension, unsheathing at will through the use of small rifts and portals.</div></div> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Book of Vishanti:</span> An expansive compendium of the most powerful spells known in the realm. It is usually kept strapped on his side, readily available for use.   <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Cloak of Levitation:</span> This magical fabric can grant Stephen flight, answer commands, move on its own, ensnare opponents, and can transform into other articles of durable clothing.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">The Amulet of Agamotto:</span> The third all-seeing eye of the empowering god Agamotto is encapsulated within an artifice that grants the Sorcerer Supreme the ability to see all truths behind illusions. It can also play back recent events, and magically enable telepathic abilities by communing with one's soul or communicating with the dead.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">The Shield of Agamotto:</span> An energy shield derived from the magical properties of the amulet, the Shield of Agamotto is like an enlarged version of the artifact with its gold surface and gaping eye at the center. It absorbs evil energy and withstands most forms of damage by transferring said forces into a pocket realm.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">The Dragonfang:</span> An indestructible blade carved from the tusk of an extra-dimensional dragon. The Ancient One received this sword from a Grand Wizard named Kahji-Da, and gave it to Dr. Strange when he became the Sorcerer Supreme. Not only can it absorb magic, but it can also cut down mystical barriers.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Spear of Watoomb:</span> Reforged with a bladed end, the formerly named Wand of Watoomb serves as a conduit to amplify Stephen's mystic energies. It can also release deadly blasts, control the weather, and open portals and dimensions.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Bow of Raggador:</span> Once a target is set via spell, the arrows that fly from this bow will find its mark.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Astral Projection:</span> A team-up scenario where we enter the subconscious realm of either another RPer's character, or an NPC - like a villain or monster, to retrieve an invaluable item/asset or shut that character down from wreaking havoc across the world.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I Ain't Araid Of No Ghost!</span> A careless seance performed by a group of kids opens the gateway to an alternate dimension full of spirits, ghosts and ghouls.

The amulet of Agamotto sees all and records all, compiling all routes to map what can be mapped. Without Agamotto's guidance, I'd be lost; my identity submerged within the smorgasbord of alternate realities until I dissipate into nothingness.  <br/><br/>Here, absence of mind means death. One minute I'm sealing torn rifts caused by a grumpy mantis demon, and before I know it, I'm slung off-course and stranded on a world full of flesh eating marsupials. Why? Because of a scatterbrained thought about my time spent in Australia many summers ago. *clicks tongue* Never again. <br/><br/>The multiverse is ever-changing and constantly paradoxical. Such a phenomena requires more than just one of me, so I disperse my astral projection out to cover as much ground as possible. My vessel, and most of my consciousness - depending on the time of day and what I've had to drink, remains on earth tending to wounded sheep and de-fanged wolves. My Sanctum Sanctorum, a haven for the mentally, physically, and spiritually ill, hides in plain sight at Hell's Kitchen, New York. None are forbidden entry - only your prejudices.   <br/><br/>So, as you can see I am a busy man. I've no tolerance for those unwilling to see beyond the ant farm they've dug themselves in. The magnifying glass works both ways I'm afraid; either you look through it to see the bigger picture, or get burned by the cosmic forces you have no control of. It makes no difference to me. I'm a doctor, and doctors like myself are in short supply of patience. But patients? Oh, that's something I never have too little of.</div></div></div></div></div>"

Without superpowers presently, he can't stand her or her nerdy boyfriend. The Avengers would also be cool.<br/>Character Origin &amp; Backstory: <br/>Jonathan 'Johnny' Storm was the younger brother of Susan Storm until one night while rescuing a man from a lab fire... he became something more. A fireman now for nearly two years, 24 year old Johnny managed to save Phineas Horton from the lab he was working in and was accidentally exposed to one of the scientists' experiments, something he called 'Horton Cells.' Days later, it seemed like a fire that Johnny and other firemen were fighting was simply absorbed into his body. After this happened two or three times during the week something finally happened. Johnny burst into flames and quickly learned most of the limits of his powers. <br/><br/>Coming clean to his sister some days later while she was waiting for her nerdy and always late boyfriend Reed, Sue couldn't believe the man her brother was becoming. Always a joker, and often a pest, Johnny seemed serious about wanting to get into the superhero limelight. Using some 'unstable molecule' fabric that Reed Richards had patented [presumably to pay for his adventure into space] his sister helped fashion Johnny a mostly orange and black costume that worked with his body heat so that the clothes didn't burn away. Now Johnny fights fires and uses them as his ammunition against enemies of the world as... the HUMAN TORCH. <br/>Powers and Abilities: Johnny has the ability to burst into flames. He can shoot blasts of fire and fireballs, absorb flames, create pillars of flame and domes of flame [think the very basic fire constructs, might build up to making a cage], as well as flight. His flames seem to be natural, as water and lack of oxygen can extinguish them. His most powerful attack, his nova blast, can level a few city blocks. The end result usually leaves him without power for a short time as well as completely exhausted. He's also trained in CPR and has experience working with the fire department in Greenwich Village.<br/>Sample Story Arcs:<br/> Skrull Invasion - After discovering his girlfriend is a shapeshifting Skrull, Torch does what he can to stop the threat of a full on invasion. Could there be other Skrulls in NYC?<br/><br/>War of Worlds - This is loosely inspired by the old fights between the android Torch and Namor, Namor and the forces of Atlantis will be caught destroying oil rigs and Torch will step in and an ongoing feud will ensue. Namor was an anti hero back in those days fighting the android, and here I see him more as an arch enemy and more off an asshole. He finds himself hating the Torch for making a fool of him... others could get in on a fight with Atlantis!<br/><br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>Johnny Storm stood in front of a long mirror in the bathroom of his Greenwich Village apartment on Bleecker Street. Johnny liked the west side of lower Manhattan. He studied at NYU before becoming a fireman at the <a href=""http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/01/94/81/greenwich-village-fire.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">'Village fire department on 10th Street.</a> some of his work clothes were laying around his living room. His sister, Sue, was also in his living room with an impatient look on her face. The blonde hadn't seen her brother this nervous about new clothes since his last year in high school...<br/><br/>""Hurry up already, Johnny. I have to meet Reed for lunch..."" Sue said with a bit of a tone lowering her eyebrows and making a mean face at the door Johnny was behind.<br/><br/>""Just gimme another second to readjust some <span class=""bb-i"">stuff</span> and I'll be right out. You sure this color scheme works?"" Johnny asks from behind the door pulling at parts of his suit and trying to straighten the symbol on the shirt to a centered position.<br/><br/>""I dressed you for at least half of your school pictures..."" Sue began saying as Johnny commented from under his breath in the bathroom...<br/><br/>""That's why half of them were awful..."" he said with a slight grin and a short laugh.<br/><br/>""... and introduced you to at least a handful of your girlfriends. Give me a little credit?"" Sue asked knowing none would probably be given. <br/><br/>Johnny stepped out of the bathroom and his sister made a face and nodded. <br/><br/>""You're sure you don't want a mask, little brother?"" she asked<br/><br/>""I don't need a mask when I can just light my head on fire like this..."" Johnny replied before lighting up and setting off the fire alarm in his kitchen.<br/><br/>Sue covered her ears while her newly clothed brother pulled it down from the ceiling and removed the battery. Johnny walked back into the living room and did a bit of a funny walk to try and wear in the boots. His sister smiled and texted her boyfriend and asked a serious question.<br/><br/>""Have you thought of your code name?"" she asked.<br/><br/>""My what?"" Johnny replied.<br/><br/>""Your code-name, your super hero alias?"" she continued.<br/><br/>""What do you think of Fireman?"" he asked sitting down.<br/><br/>""No."" she said sternly.<br/><br/>""Hothead?"" he asked, only getting a 'no' nod.<br/><br/>""Matchstick?"" Johnny continued naming off names...<br/><br/>""Flamethrower, Fireball, Fiery Mask, Hothands, Sunfire...""<br/><br/>""No. No... No. Wasn't he a hero in the 40's? Definitely no. And I think there's a guy in Japan who beat you to that last one..."" Sue replied.<br/><br/>""Damn,"" Johnny said putting his face in his hands, ""I <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> liked that last one too...""<br/><br/>""What about... the Human Torch? The 'Bugle can call you 'Torch' for short..."" Sue suggested.<br/><br/>""Why didn't I think of that?"" Johnny asked under his breath not knowing his sister could still hear him though she was headed for the door. <br/><br/>""Because you were the one born blonde, little brother. I just have a dye job... love ya."" she said laughing and walking out of the door and down the stairs.<br/><br/>Johnny's apartment was on the fourth floor above a small coffee shop on the bottom floor called Eva's Cafe. The building was owned by an old Irish woman named Eva Sweeney who sat out front of the cafe at a few tables every evening to watch the city die down. She had no idea what she was looking at when a streak of fire bolted out of a top story window and through the evening air. The hero flew past the Washington Square Arch and said to himself...<br/><br/>""The Human Torch!""</div></div><br/><br/>EDIT: ^^^ Now with a pic of a suit I came up with for him.

However sadly his parents, as well as the majority of the rest of his family were extremely anti-mutant. Luckily Bobby remained free from the controversial views that many shared for mutants in the town for a large part of his, due to him attending an Orthodox Jewish day school where he was taught about acceptance and generally the exact opposite of his parents, despite their shared faith. Bobby was forced to attend public high school however due to his family not being able to pay for his school fees after his father lost his job. This meant that for probably the first time of his life Bobby was introduced to the harshness of the real world. He was constantly bullied for both his scrawny size, as well as his faith, causing him to stop practising in order to attempt to fit in. <br/><br/>Initially, he wasn’t aware of his mutant abilities when they first appeared, believing himself to simply be suffering from a cold when he found himself constantly shivering. After weeks of pestering, Bobby finally agreed to go on a date with a girl named Judy Harmon, although this was mainly in order to stop his fellow classmates from calling him gay if he didn’t. During the date, Bobby is attacked by school bully Rocky Beasely, and his gang, who believes that Bobby stole Judy from him. In an attempt to fight back, Bobby accidently ends up unleashing his abilities and freezing everything in the nearby area, including the bullies and Judy. It was then that two new people arrived on the scene; a bald headed man in a wheelchair, accompanied by a young man wearing bright red sunglasses. They introduced themselves as Professor Charles Xavier and Scott Summers respectively, with them claiming that they were both mutants. After they sorted out the situation with the frozen bullies, with Charles erasing their memories of the event, they proceeded to explain that they had been watching over Bobby for a few days now after detecting that he was a mutant, with them offering Bobby a place at their institution, as well as a member of their team; The X-men.<br/><br/>Worrying as to what his parents would think of him being a mutant, Bobby agreed on the condition that his parents were to be told that he’d be attending an ordinary prep school. Xavier agreed. <br/><br/>Bobby settled well at Xavier’s school, with him learning how to control his abilities, as well as undertaking advanced courses in a variety of studies. He became very sociable in this new environment, often taking on the role of class clown. He soon took on the moniker of Iceman, officially becoming a member of the X-men, alongside the rest of the students. Here he befriended a young woman named Angelica Jones, with the two bonding quickly. During his time with the X-men, Bobby regularly fought against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, led by the Master of Magnetism himself. Bobby soon developed a rivalry with Brotherhood member John Allerdyce, AKA Pyro. <br/><br/>Angelica soon encouraged Bobby to tell his parents about his mutation. The confrontation didn’t go down well, with his family initially believing that he was simply coming out to them, a matter they also high disagreed with. To be honest though, their initial beliefs weren’t wrong, as Bobby also took this time to tell them that he was gay. Obviously they did not take the news well, with them naming their son a freak, as well as calling the police. Xavier’s arrival put a halt to the situation, with him once again having to wipe the minds of all of the people involved. Bobby didn’t mind as either way, he wasn’t ever speaking to his parents again. <br/><br/>After this event, Bobby lost his newfound confidence, sinking back into the sadness he had experienced back in high school, despite the support of him coming out from the rest of the team. After a trip to a science museum which led to the X-men teaming up with the Amazing Spider-Man in order to take down the Juggernaut, Angelica discovered that Spider-man was actually her old friend Peter Parker. With the two finally reunited, as well as her sensing that Bobby needed something to take his mind off of things, she introduced him to Peter. The three, despite Bobby’s initial reluctance, decided to form a team known as the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>The regular crime fighting trips to New York greatly improved Bobby’s outlook on life, allowing him to return to his happier, clowning self. This happiness went on for months, with both Iceman and Firestar balancing their time between the X-men and the Amazing Friends. Unfortunately this came to an end when Peter retired after Gwen’s death, causing Bobby to focus more on his duties as a member of the X-men. <br/><br/>Upon hearing that Spider-man had returned to the streets once more, Bobby decided that it was time for he too to get back out there!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Bobby Drake is a mutant. He is potentially an Omega Level one at that, although has yet to embrace the full force of his abilities.<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Thermokinesis; Bobby has the mutant ability to lower his external and internal body temperature, as well as projecting this coldness from his body. This has rendered his body tissues unaffected by sub-zero temperatures, with Bobby also able to lower his body temperature from its normal 98.6 Fahrenheit to absolute zero (The point where all molecular motion stops.) and lower within the span of a few tenths of a second. As his body temperature falls, the surrounding moisture in the air that is in contact with him is also lowered, with the condensing moisture forming an icy covering which encompasses his entire body. This covering is essentially a crystalline ice that constantly cracks with any movement of his body, and immediately reforms. Through practice, Iceman has learned to control the intensity of his coldness, and he can selectively lower the temperature of isolated parts of his body.</li><li>Cryokinesis; Bobby is also able to control moisture, with him having the ability to freeze any air moisture into super-hard ice. This ice can be formed into any object of his choosing: the only limitations are his own imagination, and the ambient air temperature which determines how long his ice sculpture will stay icy. This ability is usually used to form a rising column of ice beneath his feet which is capable of lifting from the ground (i.e. his ice slide). Due to the amount of water on Earth, Bobby has a virtually unlimited supply of moisture since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment. Even desert air has sufficient moisture content for him to make temporary practical use of; however, the mental effort needed to employ his mutant power under these circumstances could eventually fatigue him and render his freezing ability temporarily dysfunctional.</li><li>Ice Clone Generation; Essentially an extension of his cryokinesis, Bobby has the ability to generate ice sculptures of himself which he can mentally control as if it was his own ice covered body. This ability drastically tires Bobby out.</li></ul></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">People of Note:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Professor Charles Xavier -</span> A father figure to Bobby, Xavier brought him to his institute when his powers manifested.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Angelica Jones AKA Firestar - </span>One of Bobby's closest friends, Angelica was the one who convinced Bobby to come out to his parents, as well as being the one to introduce him to Peter.

Recovering fairly quickly, Bobby scrambled to clean it up, attempting to scoop it up with the spoon, although he only succeeded in causing even more of a mess. Giving an apologetic smile to the obviously bemused Professor, he decided to give up, sitting back in his seat. <br/><br/>“Sorry Professor, I couldn’t sleep.” He sighed, his eyes scanning his arms for a watch. Remembering that he had left it up in his room, he looked back up. “What time is it anyway?”<br/><br/>Still smiling, Charles Xavier wheeled forward, moving his wheelchair up to the kitchen table. He was currently wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, which made Bobby worry that he had somehow awoken the man from his slumber. A wink from Xavier however told Bobby that the Professor knew what he was thinking.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry, must like yourself I have been up late pondering too.” His reply calm and collective. “As for the time, I believe it is sometime after 1am.”<br/><br/>Bobby gave the man a nod in return. A silence spread across the two of them for a few seconds, giving the teenager time to reach for his spoon once more and attempt to chisel off another chunk of ice-cream from the tub. <br/><br/>“I know what you’re thinking, Bobby.” Xavier broke the silence. “What happened today with the Brotherhood wasn’t your fault.”<br/><br/>Stopping in his tracks, Bobby once more let go of his spoon, leaving it suspended upwards in the ice-cream tub. <br/><br/>“I let them escape. What use am I against a guy who can fucking control metal? Or a literally indestructible blob! All I can do is freeze things and that doesn’t even do anything with fucking John being there! I’m useless! I’m a joke!”<br/><br/>His fists slammed down into the table, ice erupting from the points of contact. By now Bobby had risen from his seat, his voice raising in volume as he did so. Tears began to stream down his face <br/><br/>That was when he felt a comforting hand on his arm. Steadying his breathing, Bobby turned to find Charles sat in his wheelchair next to him, gazing up at his with a reassuring look on his face.<br/><br/>“Robert Louis Drake. Everybody likes you, Bobby. They always have. You’re a fun guy. Honestly, you’re what holds us all together.” Xavier took a moment to pause, moving back around the table once more. “Out of all my students, former and current, you have always had the most untapped potential. All you can do is freeze things? Dear boy, you have the potential to do so much more, you have no idea! Bobby, you need to stop looking into the past and begin looking into the future. With the world we live in now, we have no room for untapped potential.”<br/><br/>Bobby stood in silence as the Professor turned to leave.<br/><br/>“What should I do?”<br/><br/>Xavier stopped in the doorway, his eyes still ahead of him. <br/><br/>“Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.”<br/><br/>“Oh, is that all?”<br/><br/>Bobby withdrew back into his seat calmly, his mind racing through all that had happened. He looked again to where the Professor had left. Smiling he thought back to when he had first arrived at the Institute. Everything had been so new and scary. He had been so alone that first night, until he had found himself in a similar position to where he was now. Taking advice from the Professor while feasting on ice-cream. While so much had changed since then, it was nice to know that some things had remained the same. <br/><br/>“Amazing, huh?” Bobby murmured to himself, pulling his spoon free from the tub. “I can do amazing.”</div></div><br/><br/>In regards to posting, I've PMed Sep and Spud about starting a collab as that would probably be easier (apologies again that I missed out on the last one) so we should be work on that soon. </div>"

Sadly his parents, as well as the majority of the rest of his family were extremely anti-mutant. Luckily Bobby remained free from the controversial views that many shared for mutants in the town for a large part of his childhood, due to him attending an Orthodox Jewish day school where he was taught about acceptance and generally the exact opposite of his parents, despite their shared faith. Bobby was forced to attend public high school however due to his family not being able to pay for his school fees after his father lost his job. This meant that for probably the first time of his life Bobby was introduced to the harshness of the real world. He was constantly bullied for both his scrawny size, as well as his faith, causing him to stop practising in order to attempt to fit in. <br/><br/>Initially, he wasn’t aware of his mutant abilities when they first appeared, believing himself to simply be suffering from a cold when he found himself constantly shivering. After weeks of pestering, Bobby finally agreed to go on a date with a girl named Judy Harmon, although this was mainly in order to stop his fellow classmates from calling him gay if he didn’t. During the date, Bobby was attacked by school bully Rocky Beasely, and his gang, who believed that Bobby stole Judy from him. In an attempt to fight back, Bobby accidently ended up unleashing his abilities and freezing everything in the nearby area, including the bullies and Judy. It was then that two new people arrived on the scene; a bald headed man in a wheelchair, accompanied by a young man wearing bright red sunglasses. They introduced themselves as Professor Charles Xavier and Scott Summers respectively, with them claiming that they were both mutants. After they sorted out the situation with the frozen bullies, with Charles erasing their memories of the event, they proceeded to explain that they had been watching over Bobby for a few days now after detecting that he was a mutant, with them offering Bobby a place at their institution, as well as a member of their team; The X-men.<br/><br/>Worrying as to what his parents would think of him being a mutant, Bobby agreed on the condition that his parents were to be told that he’d be attending an ordinary prep school. Xavier agreed. <br/><br/>Bobby settled well at Xavier’s school, with him learning how to control his abilities, as well as undertaking advanced courses in a variety of studies. He became very sociable in this new environment, often taking on the role of class clown. He soon took on the moniker of Iceman, officially becoming a member of the X-men, alongside the rest of the students. Here he befriended a young woman named Angelica Jones, with the two bonding quickly. During his time with the X-men, Bobby regularly fought against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, led by the Master of Magnetism himself. Bobby soon developed a rivalry with Brotherhood member John Allerdyce, AKA Pyro. <br/><br/>Due to her father being accepting of her mutation, Angelica soon encouraged Bobby to tell his parents about his mutation. The confrontation didn’t go down well, with his family initially believing that he was simply coming out to them, a matter they also high disagreed with. To be honest though, their initial beliefs weren’t wrong, as Bobby also took this time to tell them that he was gay. Obviously they did not take the news well, with them naming their son a freak, as well as calling the police. Xavier’s arrival put a halt to the situation, with him once again having to wipe the minds of all of the people involved. Bobby didn’t mind as either way, he wasn’t ever speaking to his parents again. <br/><br/>After this event, Bobby lost his newfound confidence, sinking back into the sadness he had experienced back in high school, despite the support of him coming out from the rest of the team. After a trip to a science museum which led to the X-men teaming up with the Amazing Spider-Man in order to take down the Juggernaut, Angelica discovered that Spider-man was actually her old friend Peter Parker. With the two finally reunited, as well as her sensing that Bobby needed something to take his mind off of things, she introduced him to Peter. The three, despite Bobby’s initial reluctance, decided to form a team known as the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>The regular crime fighting trips to New York greatly improved Bobby’s outlook on life, allowing him to return to his happier, clowning self. This happiness went on for months, with both Iceman and Firestar balancing their time between the X-men and the Amazing Friends. Unfortunately this came to an end when Peter retired after Gwen’s death, causing Bobby to focus more on his duties as a member of the X-men. <br/><br/>Upon hearing that Spider-man had returned to the streets once more, Bobby decided that it was time for he too to get back out there!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Bobby Drake is a mutant. He is potentially an Omega Level one at that, although has yet to embrace the full force of his abilities.<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Thermokinesis; Bobby has the mutant ability to lower his external and internal body temperature, as well as projecting this coldness from his body. This has rendered his body tissues unaffected by sub-zero temperatures, with Bobby also able to lower his body temperature from its normal 98.6 Fahrenheit to absolute zero (The point where all molecular motion stops.) and lower within the span of a few tenths of a second. As his body temperature falls, the surrounding moisture in the air that is in contact with him is also lowered, with the condensing moisture forming an icy covering which encompasses his entire body. This covering is essentially a crystalline ice that constantly cracks with any movement of his body, and immediately reforms. Through practice, Iceman has learned to control the intensity of his coldness, and he can selectively lower the temperature of isolated parts of his body.</li><li>Cryokinesis; Bobby is also able to control moisture, with him having the ability to freeze any air moisture into super-hard ice. This ice can be formed into any object of his choosing: the only limitations are his own imagination, and the ambient air temperature which determines how long his ice sculpture will stay icy. This ability is usually used to form a rising column of ice beneath his feet which is capable of lifting from the ground (i.e. his ice slide). Due to the amount of water on Earth, Bobby has a virtually unlimited supply of moisture since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment. Even desert air has sufficient moisture content for him to make temporary practical use of; however, the mental effort needed to employ his mutant power under these circumstances could eventually fatigue him and render his freezing ability temporarily dysfunctional.</li><li>Ice Clone Generation; Essentially an extension of his cryokinesis, Bobby has the ability to generate ice sculptures of himself which he can mentally control as if it was his own ice covered body. This ability drastically tires Bobby out.</li></ul></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">People of Note:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Professor Charles Xavier -</span> A father figure to Bobby, Xavier brought him to his institute when his powers manifested.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Angelica Jones AKA Firestar - </span>One of Bobby's closest friends, Angelica was the one who convinced Bobby to come out to his parents, due to her father having a positive reaction when she told him.

Recovering fairly quickly, Bobby scrambled to clean it up, attempting to scoop it up with the spoon, although he only succeeded in causing even more of a mess. Giving an apologetic smile to the obviously bemused Professor, he decided to give up, sitting back in his seat. <br/><br/>“Sorry Professor, I couldn’t sleep.” He sighed, his eyes scanning his arms for a watch. Remembering that he had left it up in his room, he looked back up. “What time is it anyway?”<br/><br/>Still smiling, Charles Xavier wheeled forward, moving his wheelchair up to the kitchen table. He was currently wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, which made Bobby worry that he had somehow awoken the man from his slumber. A wink from Xavier however told Bobby that the Professor knew what he was thinking.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry, must like yourself I have been up late pondering too.” His reply calm and collective. “As for the time, I believe it is sometime after 1am.”<br/><br/>Bobby gave the man a nod in return. A silence spread across the two of them for a few seconds, giving the teenager time to reach for his spoon once more and attempt to chisel off another chunk of ice-cream from the tub. <br/><br/>“I know what you’re thinking, Bobby.” Xavier broke the silence. “What happened today with the Brotherhood wasn’t your fault.”<br/><br/>Stopping in his tracks, Bobby once more let go of his spoon, leaving it suspended upwards in the ice-cream tub. <br/><br/>“I let them escape. What use am I against a guy who can fucking control metal? All I can do is freeze things and that doesn’t even do anything with fucking John being there! I’m useless! I’m a joke!”<br/><br/>His fists slammed down into the table, ice erupting from the points of contact. By now Bobby had risen from his seat, his voice raising in volume as he did so. Tears began to stream down his face <br/><br/>That was when he felt a comforting hand on his arm. Steadying his breathing, Bobby turned to find Charles sat in his wheelchair next to him, gazing up at his with a reassuring look on his face.<br/><br/>“Robert Louis Drake. Everybody likes you, Bobby. They always have. You’re a fun guy. Honestly, you’re what holds us all together.” Xavier took a moment to pause, moving back around the table once more. “Out of all my students, former and current, you have always had the most untapped potential. All you can do is freeze things? Dear boy, you have the potential to do so much more, you have no idea! Bobby, you need to stop looking into the past and begin looking into the future. With the world we live in now, we have no room for untapped potential.”<br/><br/>Bobby stood in silence as the Professor turned to leave.<br/><br/>“What should I do?”<br/><br/>Xavier stopped in the doorway, his eyes still ahead of him. <br/><br/>“Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.”<br/><br/>“Oh, is that all?”<br/><br/>Bobby withdrew back into his seat calmly, his mind racing through all that had happened. He looked again to where the Professor had left. Smiling he thought back to when he had first arrived at the Institute. Everything had been so new and scary. He had been so alone that first night, until he had found himself in a similar position to where he was now. Taking advice from the Professor while feasting on ice-cream. While so much had changed since then, it was nice to know that some things had remained the same. <br/><br/>“Amazing, huh?” Bobby murmured to himself, pulling his spoon free from the tub. “I can do amazing.”</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I believe I am done!

Sadly his parents, as well as the majority of the rest of his family were extremely anti-mutant. Luckily Bobby remained free from the controversial views that many shared for mutants in the town for a large part of his childhood, due to him attending an Orthodox Jewish day school where he was taught about acceptance and generally the exact opposite of his parents, despite their shared faith. When he was 15, Bobby was forced to attend public high school due to his family not being able to pay for his school fees after his father lost his job. This meant that for probably the first time of his life Bobby was introduced to the harshness of the real world. He was constantly bullied for both his scrawny size, as well as his faith, causing him to stop practising in order to attempt to fit in. <br/><br/>Initially, he wasn’t aware of his mutant abilities when they first appeared, believing himself to simply be suffering from a cold when he found himself constantly shivering. After weeks of pestering, Bobby finally agreed to go on a date with a girl named Judy Harmon, although this was mainly in order to stop his fellow classmates from calling him gay if he didn’t. During the date, Bobby was attacked by school bully Rocky Beasely, and his gang, who believed that Bobby stole Judy from him. In an attempt to fight back, Bobby accidently ended up unleashing his abilities and freezing everything in the nearby area, including the bullies and Judy. It was then that two new people arrived on the scene; a bald headed man in a wheelchair, accompanied by a young man wearing bright red sunglasses. They introduced themselves as Professor Charles Xavier and Scott Summers respectively, with them claiming that they were both mutants. After they sorted out the situation with the frozen bullies, with Charles erasing their memories of the event, they proceeded to explain that they had been watching over Bobby for a few days now after detecting that he was a mutant, with them offering Bobby a place at their institution, as well as a member of their team; The X-men.<br/><br/>Worrying as to what his parents would think of him being a mutant, Bobby agreed on the condition that his parents were to be told that he’d be attending an ordinary prep school. Xavier agreed. <br/><br/>Bobby settled well at Xavier’s school, with him learning how to control his abilities, as well as undertaking advanced courses in a variety of studies. He became very sociable in this new environment, often taking on the role of class clown. He soon took on the moniker of Iceman, officially becoming a member of the X-men, alongside the rest of the students. Here he befriended a young woman named Angelica Jones, with the two bonding quickly. During his time with the X-men, Bobby regularly fought against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, led by the Master of Magnetism himself. Bobby soon developed a rivalry with Brotherhood member John Allerdyce, AKA Pyro. <br/><br/>Due to her father being accepting of her mutation, Angelica soon encouraged Bobby to tell his parents about his. The confrontation didn’t go down well, with his family initially believing that he was simply coming out to them, a matter they also high disagreed with. To be honest though, their initial beliefs weren’t wrong, as Bobby also took this time to tell them that he was gay. Obviously they did not take the news well, with them naming their son a freak, as well as calling the police. Xavier’s arrival put a halt to the situation, with him once again having to wipe the minds of all of the people involved. Bobby didn’t mind as either way, he wasn’t ever speaking to his parents again. <br/><br/>After this event, Bobby lost his newfound confidence, sinking back into the sadness he had experienced back in high school, despite the support of him coming out from the rest of the team. After a trip to a science museum which led to the X-men teaming up with the Amazing Spider-Man in order to take down the Juggernaut, Angelica discovered that Spider-man was actually her old friend Peter Parker. With the two finally reunited, as well as her sensing that Bobby needed something to take his mind off of things, she introduced him to Peter. The three, despite Bobby’s initial reluctance, decided to form a team known as the Amazing Friends.<br/><br/>The regular crime fighting trips to New York greatly improved Bobby’s outlook on life, allowing him to return to his happier, clowning self. This happiness went on for months, with both Iceman and Firestar balancing their time between the X-men and the Amazing Friends. Unfortunately this came to an end when Peter retired after Gwen’s death, causing Bobby to focus more on his duties as a member of the X-men. <br/><br/>Upon hearing that Spider-man had returned to the streets once more, Bobby decided that it was time for he too to get back out there!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Bobby Drake is a mutant. He is potentially an Omega Level one at that, although has yet to embrace the full force of his abilities.<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Thermokinesis; Bobby has the mutant ability to lower his external and internal body temperature, as well as projecting this coldness from his body. This has rendered his body tissues unaffected by sub-zero temperatures, with Bobby also able to lower his body temperature from its normal 98.6 Fahrenheit to absolute zero (The point where all molecular motion stops.) and lower within the span of a few tenths of a second. As his body temperature falls, the surrounding moisture in the air that is in contact with him is also lowered, with the condensing moisture forming an icy covering which encompasses his entire body. This covering is essentially a crystalline ice that constantly cracks with any movement of his body, and immediately reforms. Through practice, Iceman has learned to control the intensity of his coldness, and he can selectively lower the temperature of isolated parts of his body.</li><li>Cryokinesis; Bobby is also able to control moisture, with him having the ability to freeze any air moisture into super-hard ice. This ice can be formed into any object of his choosing: the only limitations are his own imagination, and the ambient air temperature which determines how long his ice sculpture will stay icy. This ability is usually used to form a rising column of ice beneath his feet which is capable of lifting from the ground (i.e. his ice slide). Due to the amount of water on Earth, Bobby has a virtually unlimited supply of moisture since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment. Even desert air has sufficient moisture content for him to make temporary practical use of; however, the mental effort needed to employ his mutant power under these circumstances could eventually fatigue him and render his freezing ability temporarily dysfunctional.</li><li>Ice Clone Generation; Essentially an extension of his cryokinesis, Bobby has the ability to generate ice sculptures of himself which he can mentally control as if it was his own ice covered body. This ability drastically tires Bobby out.</li></ul></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">People of Note:</span><br/><div class=""bb-indent""><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Professor Charles Xavier -</span> A father figure to Bobby, Xavier brought him to his institute when his powers manifested.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Angelica Jones AKA Firestar - </span>One of Bobby's closest friends, Angelica was the one who convinced Bobby to come out to his parents due to her father having a positive reaction when she told him.

Recovering fairly quickly, Bobby scrambled to clean it up, attempting to scoop it up with the spoon, although he only succeeded in causing even more of a mess. Giving an apologetic smile to the obviously bemused Professor, he decided to give up, sitting back in his seat. <br/><br/>“Sorry Professor, I couldn’t sleep.” He sighed, his eyes scanning his arms for a watch. Remembering that he had left it up in his room, he looked back up. “What time is it anyway?”<br/><br/>Still smiling, Charles Xavier wheeled forward, moving his wheelchair up to the kitchen table. He was currently wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, which made Bobby worry that he had somehow awoken the man from his slumber. A wink from Xavier however told Bobby that the Professor knew what he was thinking.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry, much like yourself, I have been up late pondering too.” His reply calm and collective. “As for the time, I believe it is some time after 1am.”<br/><br/>Bobby gave the man a nod in return. A silence spread across the two of them for a few seconds, giving the teenager time to reach for his spoon once more and attempt to chisel off another chunk of ice-cream from the tub. <br/><br/>“I know what you’re thinking, Bobby.” Xavier broke the silence. “What happened today with the Brotherhood wasn’t your fault.”<br/><br/>Stopping in his tracks, Bobby once more let go of his spoon, leaving it suspended upwards in the ice-cream tub. <br/><br/>“I let them escape. What use am I against a guy who can fucking control metal? All I can do is freeze things and that doesn’t even do anything with fucking John being there! I’m useless! I’m a joke!”<br/><br/>His fists slammed down into the table, ice erupting from the points of contact. By now Bobby had risen from his seat, his voice raising in volume as he did so. Tears began to stream down his face <br/><br/>That was when he felt a comforting hand on his arm. Steadying his breathing, Bobby turned to find Charles sat in his wheelchair next to him, gazing up with a reassuring look on his face.<br/><br/>“Robert Louis Drake. Everybody likes you, Bobby. They always have. You’re a fun guy. Honestly, you’re what holds us all together.” Xavier took a moment to pause, moving back around the table once more. “Out of all my students, former and current, you have always had the most untapped potential. All you can do is freeze things? Dear boy, you have the potential to do so much more, you have no idea! Bobby, you need to stop looking into the past and begin looking into the future. With the world we live in now, we have no room for untapped potential.”<br/><br/>Bobby stood in silence as the Professor turned to leave.<br/><br/>“What should I do?”<br/><br/>Xavier stopped in the doorway, his eyes still ahead of him. <br/><br/>“Something amazing, Bobby. Nothing less.”<br/><br/>“Oh, is that all?”<br/><br/>Bobby withdrew back into his seat calmly, his mind racing through all that had happened. He looked again to where the Professor had left. Smiling he thought back to when he had first arrived at the Institute. Everything had been so new and scary. He had been so alone that first night, until he had found himself in a similar position to where he was now. Taking advice from the Professor while feasting on ice-cream. While so much had changed since then, it was nice to know that some things had remained the same. <br/><br/>“Amazing, huh?” Bobby murmured to himself, pulling his spoon free from the tub. “I can do amazing.”</div></div><br/><br/>I believe this is done! I know i said that last time, but I've actually remember to read through it all now! :P</div>"

Ehhh I dunno, she's a massive flight risk, she came willingly to SHIELD the first time and so far they haven't done anything to piss her off, but they've given her all their info on Loki with the exception of his current location. Without that, she can't do that much damage (unless she plans to smash the entire world to find Loki which is unlikely), but now SHIELD don't have tonnes of intel on Loki that they can barter with. <br/>I think letting her chill with Dwight and stretch her legs is a good option for now, she may be a little more reluctant to be taken in by SHIELD again if they call her in. <br/><br/>Right now, SHIELD isn't an enemy or an Ally to her, afterall, Wilson even said that Loki was helping deal with the Hulk and from where they stood, he was more of a hero than she was, but they are aware he could be trouble given his history. So SHIELD don't want to destroy Thor (at least not yet anyhow o-O) and they aren't on Loki's side either (nor against him), so they're at a stalemate for the time being. <br/><br/>As things progress, Thor and Loki will inevitably cross paths again, and SHIELD can figure out if (a) They can get the two Gods to work together or (b) Who is the best God to become an ally with or (c) Tell them both to fuck off haha or (d) SOmething else entirely who knows where things will do. I think its too early for Fury or Wilson to make the call of whether Thor or Loki can be trusted, since both were trying to help the Hulk situation, and SHIELD doesn't exactly know about Thor and Loki's personal feud, they've only heard Thor's side (and it was very vague -Loki destroyed Asgard ... the end- Give them a little more time. </div>"

However everything changed after a monarch under his fathers care died due to illness. While it was no fault of his fathers they were forced to flee. He had already seen the worst of the country but now Victor being on the run saw a completely different aspect too it, and it disgusted him. However he was too young to truly understand and comprehend what was going on. His Mother trained him, as best she could for they faced many threats on the roads and there was something she had not told him.<br/><br/>On the eve of his tenth birthday, his mother disappeared. Currently camping in the wilderness there were no tracks, no signs that she had willingly left them or that she had been taken. She was just gone. His father never explained why, Victor suspected him in having a hand in it. The days turned into weeks, and into months. It was not until the dead of winter till Victor demanded his answer. Upon crossing a frozen crevice, the ice shattered and his father fell in. His arms grabbing on to the ice, Victor just turned to face his father and though he knew the best way to get his father, surveying the Ice and the way he had fallen in he did not move.<br/><br/>Confronting him, he demanded to know what his mother had been so worried about for she always had been when he tried to remember a time when she didn't seem to be looking over her shoulder. It wasn't until he began to slip that he confessed. He had talked Victors mother into signing a pact with Mephisto in order to take on Guardsmen who terrorized Gypsy camps throughout Latveria, however she discovered that for every guard she killed an innocent child in the village died. The compassionate soul that she was she renounced her power, Mephisto then appeared before her reminding her that her soul still belonged to him, and he would take it in his own time unless she decided to give him her son. She refused and Mephisto just vanished, that was until the eve of Victors tenth birthday where he kidnapped Victors mother.<br/><br/>Enraged at this prospect, that it had all been his fathers doing. He had given her the greatest burden to carry rather than trying to carry it himself, without thinking he let off a blast of dark magic shattering the ice and sending his father into the depths, where Victor presumes he died.<br/><br/>Alone in the wastes, he wandered on. Where near frozen to death he stumbled upon another Gypsy camp. Temporarily renouncing the name of Doom he lived a happy life. It was here that he met his first love Valeria and throughout his teen years the two were close. Learning magic from the few who taught it within the camp, and more importantly <span class=""bb-i"">studying</span>. Once he had started it could not be stopped, it was as if his mind had a hunger for knowledge. After all, when it came to saving his mother mere magic wouldn't do it. It was time to update himself and the country and bring them on part with the rest of the world.<br/><br/>On hearing about the up and coming genius, wishing to increase the reputation off their university he was offered Scholarship at the University of New York. This is where he met Reed Richards, who tried to befriend him however Victor refused. He even tried to construct a dimensional teleporter, when Reed pointed out a flaw in the design Victor in his arrogance refused to believe it. How could he afterall make a mistake? This was his technology and his designs. He knew the physics and the maths. So when it failed, and caused an explosion he blamed Reed for interfering in his experiment however the damage was done.<br/><br/>He was expelled for ""unethical"" and ""illegal"" experiments, despite the fact that boundries had to be pushed for the continuation of science. He did not see people complaining about the <span class=""bb-i"">pretty boy</span> and child prodigy Tony Stark, who quite often felt threatened by those who could rival him in both the fields of science and in terms of appearance so never hesitated to gloat about his wealth to Victor. This was made worse by his physical scarring, while minor made Doom hide his face. He was damaged, and the world had done that to him. Though he would make a new face, like he would make a new <span class=""bb-i"">better</span> world.<br/><br/>Hearing word of a group of Tibetan Monks who dealt in magical affairs he travelled to their temple, where after months of meditation they helped make him a metal suit of armour. The last piece he insisted upon, in order to become an ideal and perfect he needed his face to be concealed behind a mask. Rather than merely attaching it to his face he had it placed onto his face while still red hot. If his face had not been imperfect before it certainly was now.<br/><br/>Returning to his home country he saw a chance to make a difference. While many in the country did not like the current Baron or the Monarchy due to the tensions in the region he felt he had to be very careful in how he took power of the country. Through clever assassinations, with no tie to him, disappearances and people fleeing the country there was eventually just the Baron himself. Doom, instead of just killing him started a revolutionary movement, though always keeping a hand in the shadows. Riling people up in the right places, an ensuring that nothing untoward would happen to his movement. <br/><br/>Within two years Doom sat on the throne.<br/><br/>He cares deeply for his country, trying to do what's best for it and it's people. Revolutionising Robotics himself to patrol the country and keep it safe from external and internal threats (Some of those internal threats can sometimes be due to differing opinions) and using them as a prime export for other countries Latveria has been experiencing an economic boom like it never has, and in the background Doom is planning to expand his reach. To gain more power, to make this a perfect world. <br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Magic</span><br/>Doom has trained in the mystical arts for many years, since he was a child. His mother taught him the basics, and then after her passing he devoted his life in order to become more powerful in a bled of technology and the mystical arts. He could fire magical blasts, create force fields. He can also currently perform some basic enchantments however without more training these abilities while powerful are not as strong as many other Sorcerers who have spent more years perfecting their art.<br/><br/>However, do not mistake these for parlor tricks. These abilities can easily kill regular people, and make fighting him a bitch.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Technology</span><br/>Something he has spent equally as long on as his magic arts is his mastery of technology, gaining himself a place within the ranks of Tony Stark and Reed Richards in terms of intellect (Though he himself believes himself superior). His armour is as strong as Iron Mans, and completely self sufficient. He is also capable of developing advanced weapons, and even robotic replicas of himself. <br/><br/>- His armour with or without magic is capable of expelling bolts of electricity. <br/>- His armour can also generate a force field.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Super-Genius class Intelligence</span><br/>As mentioned above he is on the level of intelligence off Tony Stark and Reed Richards. To date he has already created several advanced inventions, though mainly he has worked on his armour, shielding and weapons he has also worked on robotics creating A.I so sophisticated that his ""Doombots"" can be used as body doubles. Like his old rival Reed Richards he is also working on trying to crack Dimensional Travel, seeing it as the gateway into cracking time travel.<br/><br/>Doom specializes in physics, robotics, cybernetics, genetics, weapons technology, biochemistry, and dimensional travel. He also has natural talents for leadership, strategy, politics, and manipulation. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Diplomatic Immunity:</span><br/>As the leader of a sovereign nation, Doctor Doom often visits the United States or the United Nations for political reasons. He enjoys diplomatic immunity during these trips, and his embassy is considered foreign soil.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Hand to Hand Combat</span><br/>Through time, patience and training (That at times required no small sum of money) he has trained with some of the best swordsmen on earth and with various other instructors to become proficient in armed and un-armed combat.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Story Arcs:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">These are just three concepts, I have more written down somewhere</span><br/><br/>-Politics: While he officially has diplomatic immunity (Unless he is called to court for War Crimes) there is still a lot of politics that he needs to get involved in. Which is difficult for a man of his position.<br/><br/>-Latveria Prosperity: Latveria while contested has little in way of natural resources, and Doom only ever strives to make the country better. How will he do this? Though not only does he need to think about the economy but he has to think about all the threats surfacing in the world.<br/><br/>-Heart of Doom: He once had love, how will she view him now?<br/><br/>-Dooms World: World Domination, duh. Though I think he may be stopped.<br/><br/>-A Mothers Love: Finally having the power he will travel to meet Mephisto to win back his mothers soul, however what price will he pay? How will she react?<br/><br/>-Death of Doom: When Doom has severe head trauma much of his past is forgotten, what will happen to this new Doom who only remembers his life as a student and a ruler and a complete personality twist makes him no longer strive to take over the world. Though part of him wishes to regain his memories, especially as some of his intellect has been lost during the injury. <br/><br/>-Throne of Doom: He took the throne, and disposed of most of the family. <span class=""bb-i"">Most</span>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Post:</span><br/><br/>""Do you have any proof though Director Fury?"" Doom could smile under his mask, it was always at this moment where he had his opponent in his grasp that he enjoyed the most. Once again allegations were flying at him as S.H.I.E.L.D were <span class=""bb-i"">inquiring</span> about activities going on concerning the sale of his doombots. It was a political game, and one Fury was poorly equipped to play, though in the end how could he not be outmatched? He was against Doom after all.<br/><br/>""No we don't, Sir-"" Such spite in the use of the word Sir. There was no respect in it, there was loathing and hate. Fury had played this game with Doom many times, Doom could almost feel sorry for him. However this was precisely why he refused to speak to anyone else <span class=""bb-i"">except</span> Fury when it came to dealings with S.H.I.E.L.D. Being the ruling monarch of a country had its advantages after all. ""-However your robots are being used by several criminal groups-"" <br/><br/>Doom raised his hand in a gesture to stop. ""I'll have to stop you there Director. You know full well that I do not personally oversee every sale, however I can assure you that all our clients are vetted to ensure that they will not cause harm to any of our allies either in Europe or overseas-"" <span class=""bb-i"">allies</span>, as if they were on par with Doom. ""-Do you blame Tony Stark for when his weapons were used against U.S. Forces?""<br/><br/>Doom had him, and Fury knew it. ""No but-"" Doom raised his hand again. ""I am sorry Director, however this seems entirely unfair and judgmental. Just because we are a fledgling country, you feel you can bully us around and sell only to you. However I will not stand for it, and if I hear off this again I will be sure to bring it to the attention of the UN when I meet with them, and on speaking about the UN I will require an escort."" He could see that Fury was already thinking on what he could be up to. While to the public Victor Von Doom was nothing but a caring monarch several heroes who decided to poke their noses in his affairs often caught wind of some of his plans, though never enough to bring him to any form of trial as he had diplomatic immunity it would take a war tribunal to do so.<br/><br/>""An escort Sir?"" The silence was broken.<br/><br/>""Yes, there have been several breaches in my perimeter and while I have been able to combat these threats outside of my borders where I have less control of the variables I require an escort who knows the lay of the land better than I to keep myself safe. Will this be suitable?"" Fury almost groaned, he could tell. ""Yes Sir, anything else."" <br/><br/>""No thank you."" With a wave of the hand the transmission was gone, and he turned to the table behind him where he was working on some of his latest designs. He had to be ready.</div>"

Different story lines (ideally) will be running in the IC, even with different times.  Think of it like you are the writer for one of the Marvel comics books.  There is a fluid nature to this game.  Let's say your character (like Iceman) has a solo book and a team book (X-Men).  He can appear in both books, even though they might happen chronologically at different times.  Does that make sense.<br/><br/>Also, Spider-Man post should be up within the next few hours.  </div>"

He knows what hes done and why shes mad, but Captain America and Stark obviously don't know what went down in Asgard (Cap just has her word and ... he doesn't have to believe her anyway) so thats a really interesting polarisation.  <br/>At least with Captain America, hes already talked to Thor and might have an inkling that Thor believes she's doing good, she thinks Loki can and will destroy Earth so her heart is in the right place even though Loki's changed and she didn't get that memo, so perhaps he'll take that into account as well. I don't see Stark taking too kindly to Thor though...<br/><br/>Either way, its strange to see a hero (Thor) fall from grace so badly and the villainous Loki Laufeyson take up the mantle of hero!!</div>"

In fact what he saw was a Skrull infiltrator spying on the armed forces of the Earth in preparation for an invasion to gain ground on the Kree Empire. One night, after following the man he believed to be the alien he'd seen before, Derek was abducted by the Skrulls who began operating on him while still in Earth's orbit. Fighting out of the trance like state he was put in, Derek awoke and was able to cause just enough damage to the ship and the two alien Skrulls on board to see the alien craft crash into the Nevada desert. <br/><br/>Surprised that he survived the crash, Derek was shocked to find his eyes had altered color and that he was a lot stronger and faster than a normal human now. Making his way to his only remaining relative in NYC, his older brother [38] Donald, the 21 year old Derek decided to give superheroics a go with several superhumans catching the attention of the public eye as of late. Taking inspiration from a pair of 3D movie glasses in his brother's vast DVD collection, Derek settled on a symbol to call his own and the alias: the 3D Man. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span></span> Derek now possesses strength, durability, speed, and stamina three times that of a normal human being. He can run as fast as 70 mph, but can attain short bursts of speed up to 90-mph. He can leap heights of up to 30 feet into the air. He can lift or press up to 1,400 lbs regularly. He also possesses a quasi-telepathic link to the distinct aura of the Skrull race, making him able to detect them in any form they assume. His brother calls Derek's power the 'Tri-Force'.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.</span></span><br/><br/>The Power Skrull: Paibok is a captain in the Skrull army sent to deal with the 3D Man. The Skrulls' first attempt at a 'super' Skrull, Paibok possesses powers and abilities far beyond the basic shapeshifting of the green skinned aliens. Possessing flight, bio-electric energy blasts, strength and durability on par with the Thing, a hypnotic stare, as well as ice manipulation... he very well may be the one to take down the 3D Man. <br/><br/>Secret Invasion: Derek begins hunting down Skrull infiltrators in the form of civilians, 5th string heroes and villains, as well as somebody higher up on the food chain [TBD by myself and Ded].<br/><br/>Big Time: After establishing himself as a hero, 3D Man could become a member of the Avengers or perhaps something more like the New Warriors if there's enough younger heroes in the game. He'd get more of a super suit at this point as well. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span></span><br/><br/>""I've been tailing this 'Thunderball' character for three days now. Guy runs around with the Wrecking Crew, but I doubt they know he's one of these shape-shifting alien Skrulls. A month ago he assumed the identity of a doctor Elliot Franklin, probably to get intel on the gamma tech the military's working on. Now he looks to have got jacked on steroids and throws a ball and chain around. I can see his real face. And tonight, this alien's going down..."" Derek thought as he leaped and ran across rooftops keeping up with a car Thunderball had stolen. <br/><br/>Sometime later before ditching the car, Thunderball changed clothes. The 3D Man could see him shifting his form rather than actually changing any clothing. The man looked to have dropped about forty pounds as well to help hide his other alternate identity. Derek moved ahead to the doctor's last residence and was waiting for the Skrull. Upon entering through the door into the open, the alien was caught off guard by a punch from the stronger and faster 3D Man. A couple more punches into it Derek grabbed the alien and threw him through a wall. The home was huge. The doctor had been rich after all, before the whole being abducted and replaced with an alien. 3D Man was usually a hit first ask questions later kinda guy when it came to the aliens he was hunting. As the alien struggled to get up, Derek finally thought to ask some questions. Hopefully the alien was informative like the better villains in James Bond films...<br/><br/>""I know you're called a Skrull. What are you doing on Earth?"" 3D Man asked standing back from the floored alien.<br/><br/>""You can't MAKE me talk, human. You don't look like the torturing type."" the alien said shifting back into his alien form clad in a ridiculous purple alien suit. <br/><br/>""I'm sure the military can find something to do with you..."" Derek began before being interrupted by the alien.<br/><br/>""Wait... YOU'RE the one who defeated Captain Paibok? You may have got lucky against the Power Skrull but every other Skrull you hand over to your brother and his friends in the military..."" the alien began as Derek got a shocked look on his face at the mention of his brother Donald, ""..yes, we know about your brother, human. Every other Skrull merely shifts into another human and escapes before being completely neutered by your military. The last Skrull you sent away...""<br/><br/>""Goliath..?"" 3D Man thought out loud.<br/><br/>""...already back among the human race as a hero this time. Atlas."" the alien continued.<br/><br/>""What do you want with Earth?"" 3D Man tried again as his brother and a few special military operatives in protective gear hit the scene. <br/><br/>""I'll take my chances with your friends, thank you. We'll be seeing you soon..."" the alien continued before being restrained by a knockout gas and a fully automated fold out prison cell that formed around him.<br/><br/>""Did he tell you anything?"" Donald asked his younger brother.<br/><br/>""Yeah, the alien I took down last week got away didn't he?"" Derek asked with Tri-Force energy emitting more fluidly from his eyes.<br/><br/>""He did, why?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""The one I just took down said he's already on the move again. As a hero calling himself Atlas."" Derek explained. <br/><br/>""I saw that guy in the 'Bugle. Same powers, makes sense. You gonna go after him again?"" the older sibling asked while noticing some of the finer things in the good doctor's home.<br/><br/>""That goes without saying. How do they keep getting away from the military?"" 3D Man asked with aggravation being clear in his tone.<br/><br/>""Look... we're trying to replicate your 6th sense, but we need you to run more tests..."" Donald began reasoning.<br/><br/>""I don't have time for tests, damnit!"" Derek said a little louder as the last of the military agents evacuated the scene, ""The more time I spend with you studying my powers the more time the aliens have to gain the upper hand. <br/><br/>""You just like being a superhero little brother.

And his main enemies are the Skrulls, I mean... they're like the perfect badguys for anybody. I hope writing off Atlas and Thunderball as Skrull infiltrators was ok, and I just used 'the military' rather than saying 3D Man was already working with SHIELD.

Reed's father was Nathan Richards, a brilliant scientist who had written numerous books and documentaries  on space and the concepts of everything around it.  His mother Helen Richards though also had many scientific degrees in various fields.  Even with all this however, Reed showed even early on that he was capable of being smarter than any of them.  By the time most kids were just going into pre-school Reed already had the knowledge that could put him into High School. Even still though his parents wanted him to learn patience and humility, so they had him go through the school years and never leap ahead any grades, despite numerous people at school insisting he did.<br/><br/>When Reed however reached the age of 14 everything changed.  His father was working on design concepts and small scale experiments on something he proudly told Reed 'would change everything'.  However after one resulted in a miniature black hole that nearly sucked him in before he was able to shut it off.  Nathan Richards canceled and abandoned the project quickly. He started using his time and stature in the scientific world to make sure that the very leaps and bounds were handled responsibly worrying that one advancement made too quickly could be apocalyptic in its sheer danger.  It all led to him however finding out about experiments being done in Latervia and by one Victor Von Doom.  The leader of the country was creating something Nathan Richards worried could lead to even more destructive danger than his own experiment. One night he went into Reed's room before his bed time, kissed him on the cheek.  He told him that daddy had to go do something important, and that no matter what he loved him very much.<br/><br/>That night was the last time Reed has ever seen his father.<br/><br/>Seemingly Nathan Richards vanished off the map.  Never telling anyone where he went made finding him all but impossible.  Reed though in his grief finished everything through High School in a depression fueled rage.  Getting a G.E.D. Diploma that he doesn't even keep out anywhere out of shame.  As he knew later after a talk with his mom that he couldn't let what happened affect him.  Still Reed found himself in a deep slump of sadness that he couldn't shake.  His dad meant a lot to a lot of people, but to Reed he was a superhero.  Someone he didn't have to look up too because he was right there, always with that smile, and that belly laugh that always made Reed himself laugh.  <br/><br/>By chance the New York Comic Con was coming up, something the more geeky side of Reed loved attending every year since he was very little.  Worrying about Reed, she had Reed's long time friend.  The equally geeky Benjamin Graham, take him on a weekend trip to the convention. She got them hotels next to the convention center, and gave Reed plenty for goodies and food.  Still by the end of the first day it didn't seem like it was working, Reed just mostly stayed in the hotel room, watching TV as Ben had to seemingly beg to even get him to go out for dinner that night.  However the next day Reed finally went, more to shut Ben up than anything else.  However during the day when he was sulking along he saw something radiant.  The girl his age was simply stunning, even without considering the lovely costume she was cosplaying in.  Reed's heart thumped harder and harder at the sight of her.  Ben realizing what was happening played wing man and quickly got Reed to go talk to her.  Her name was Susan Storm, and the two couldn't be detached from one another for the rest of the weekend.<br/><br/>Shortly there after Reed was approached by her father, another renowned scientist in Dr Franklin Storm.  Reed knew about and admired his work (Having not really previously connected the dots on Susan being his daughter), and was surprised when Dr. Storm asked him to join his think tank program The Future Foundation.  Reed was flattered, but as of yet hasn't had any idea what project he could do with them.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Reed's body has undergone a metamorphosis where in his body essentially allows him to be completely and utterly flexible and elastic.  He can stretch his limbs from toes to fingertip upwards of 3 miles but with practice that number can certainly raise.  He can also reform himself into things like a ball shape to bounce around in, stretch individual limbs like fingers and toes, inflate himself or deflate himself flat, along with countless other feats that are hindered by his imagination alone.  On top of this his body structure has changed completely.  No longer supported by a skeletal structure, Reed's body has an almost harden gel like substance supporting it, as well as no longer a stomach but instead a unique bacteria sack that allows Reed to survive off of oxygen alone.<br/><br/>Reed though personally considers his biggest 'super power' to have always been his intelligence. Quite simply Reed Richards could very well be the most intelligent man on the planet.  Having gotten top studying in astrophysics, biology, bio-engineering, and countless others.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>After the big project, the teleportation device his father was working on, fails spectacularly.  Reed finds out one of the people who was working on it has mutated for the worst, a strange monster like creature that buries itself underground and produces mole like monsters a sexually.  Finding out about him and having to fight its now mindless form leaves Reed depressed and blaming himself, on top of what happened to himself and the other three.<br/><br/>Reed along with the rest of the newly announced Fantastic Four begin to put the pieces together about where his father went and what happened to him, which leads them to a certain castle in Latervia.<br/><br/>(This one with Kid Lantern's permission of course) After their constant struggles and disappointments against 3D Man,   The skrulls decide to use the Fantastic Four as the base for a new Super Skrull prototype.  However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>As Reed Richards could faintly hear sounds coming from all around him, the bathroom where his roommate for the weekend Ben Graham was singing Dinosaur Laser Fight, the traffic outside that is distinctive for New York City morning rush hour, and the dull sales person on the tv.  Reed just quietly sighed to himself as he stared up at the ceiling while laying practically motionless in bed.  Sure he had on clothes and had been awake for an hour or so, but he just would've rather gone back to bed.<br/><br/>It had been some time since his father told him good night that last time, before vanishing to who knows where and if his even alive there.  As intelligent as the young man was he couldn't stop repeating questions that had no logical answer.  The biggest one of all though was why, why did he leave?  Was it something Reed did?  Was his mom and dad not getting along as well as they were making it out to be?  Reed's brain was wrecking itself as Ben came out of the bathroom.  A light misting of steam coming out with him as he had changed into some fresh clothes.  The large, muscular guy in a Jets jersey and jeans took his fingers through his blond buzzcut hair before glancing over at Reed.<br/><br/>“Hey Reed man you're awake!”  Ben started into with the chummy Brooklyn accent of his.  “Listen man come on its going to be great today, they're doing some giveaways today, and man the booth babes.  Dude the booth babes are amazing this year let me tell...” <br/><br/>Ben paused, a bit disappointed as he watched Reed silently roll over in his bed putting his back to his friend.  “No its fine, just go ahead man I'll catch up later.”  Reed softly said with a sigh as he hoped Ben would leave.<br/><br/>“Reed...”  Ben had to hold back his irritation before he walked over to his bed and sat at the side, facing Reed.  “You told me that yesterday and you didn't do it.  Hell I had to make you come have dinner with me last night.  Look I really liked your dad too Reed, he was a Hell of a guy.  But... come on man everyone is worried sick about you.  This whole weekend was to give you something special.  Bro I'm not just going to let you sit here and wallow away like this.  That's not the Reed Richards I know.”<br/><br/>Looking out the window of the hotel room Reed grimaced, he knew Ben was right but there was still that part of his brain, that nagging feeling that told him he still didn't 'get it'.  Still Reed had to fight it and hold it down as he shut his eyes for a second.  He finally turned over,  “I uh...”  Reed had to force it out.  “I guess...”  <br/><br/>-Later-<br/><br/>It took some time, as it felt like Reed was just using small inconveniences and annoyances to just justify not wanting to be there.  However Ben was prepared, and had to get Reed back into the right geeky frame of mind.  It started with some panels where Ben was able to get autographs for Reed of some comic book writers and artists.  Going through the booths Ben helped find Reed some figures that he was looking for.  Slowly Reed was giving a faint grin, just letting himself get back into things again.  It still hurt, but he saw how hard Ben was trying and if nothing else it was providing a nice distraction.<br/><br/>“Alright alright Ben seriously now, I think you know better than to doubt Captain Marvel.”  Reed shook his head having to hold back a laugh.<br/><br/>Ben chuckled, not just because of their discussion but frankly he saw some people nearby give a slight cowering to his presence.  There was something fun about looking like a jock and scaring people who would be impressed by the engineering and robotics knowledge he actually possessed.  “No man Superman could totally take him, Captain Marvel is just a kid playing superhero.”<br/><br/>Reed smirked, his hand having to hold up his head a bit.  “Yeah and that's what makes Captain Marvel more awesome.”  Reed and Ben continued to have their argument, one that had been made in the past and will continue with the two until their too old to even remember comic book characters.  Reed always enjoyed it though, it was that kind of thing you could never justify with anyone rationally. <br/><br/>As the two continued on, Ben was trying to raise a point about Superman's endurance or something like that when Reed suddenly found himself unable to even hear him.  It was due to someone nearby, a cosplayer who had her mask off and was talking to someone else.  The girl though was... Reed just couldn't look away, it wasn't even the Hawkgirl costume she was wearing.  It was just her.  She just had Reed's attention and wasn't letting go.<br/><br/>“...so what I'm saying... Reed?  Reed!”  Suddenly a hand on Reed's shoulder sucked him back into the real world where Ben looked on confused for a moment.  Finally though he looked over at the girl and back down to Reed, quickly picking up the social situation at hand with a grin.  “Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were a bit preoccupied.”  Ben said as Reed felt his cheeks start to turn a harsher peach tone.<br/><br/>“I wha no no no I mean no she's just got a nice costume!”  Reed stammered out a response even he had a hard time figuring out after the fact.  Having to look away to try and figure out quickly how stupid he sounded.<br/><br/>Ben chuckled a bit, patting Reed's shoulder again.  “Sure buddy, it was just the costume...”  Ben saw how Reed was getting very embarrassed but also saw an opening.  “Why don't you go talk to her?”<br/><br/>Reed's eyes shot open wide as he glanced back hastily, “I what?  No I don't even know what to say!  I'm just going to look stupid.”  Reed figured as much, the only other time he tried to talk to a girl like this was asking someone to prom.  It ended about as well as Reed figured seeing as how she laughed thinking it was a prank set up.<br/><br/>“Here come on Reed if you're so concerned I'll help.”  Suddenly Reed felt Ben's large hand grip his wrist as he started pulling him towards the girl.  Leaving Reed panicked, excited, and feeling like he was about to vomit all at the same time.  He tried to get Ben to let go having to shuffle his feet in his forced movement but all hope faded and he soon found himself face to face with something amazing, and with nothing to say.<br/><br/>“Hey whats up?  Sorry to barge in but I'm Ben, this is Reed.  Here Reed say hi.”  Ben had given him the opening, Reed felt his heart rushing in his body like it was bouncing all over the place.  All the knowledge he possessed, all the smarts he had and will ever have.  None of it prepared him for this, the brief pause felt like an eternity as Reed had to muster up his courage.  Here goes...<br/><br/>“Uh, hi!”<br/><br/>(Angel Vicky said she'll have Susan Storm ready tomorrow, so hopefully this works and stuff...)</div>"

From early childhood, she was one of the prodigies studying and working at the Baxter Building, a midtown Manhattan government research lab. Following her father into physics, at age eight she built a sugar-powered rocket and accidentally destroyed her father's car, after which she changed her focus to ""inner space"" biology. <br/><br/>Then her mother passed away. She had to become the mother figure to her younger brother Johnny as their father broke down into a depression. This caused her much stress and struggle to keep on top of her school work by having to look after her brother, father and the house. She still maintained high grades and reached top of her class. She was very pretty in her teen years but she had no time for boys, so the popular girls in school began to shun her for not participating in the social normality. This made her shy around people her age and found only comfort in attending comic cons with her brother, it was the only time she could truly let her hair down. <br/><br/>This is how she meets Reed Richards and Benjamin Graham, at the New York Comic Con. Her new best friends. She connected with Reed on an intellectual level and he really challenged her mind with his wondrous knowledge. He was drawn to her lovely costume of a Hawkgirl from the popular DC comics (ofc we know Marvel is better!) and she explained how she made it herself. She had become very talented at tailoring for mending Johnny's clothes and expanded on her craft skills as  a hobby to get away from not having any friends of her own. But now she had them and she was so excited.  <br/><br/>When she got home after the con she couldn't stop talking about her new friends Reed and Ben to her father. This inspired him to give Reed a chance at his think tank programme; having heard of Reed's outstanding work already at a young age. He called it The Future Foundation. There they would be the test subjects of Reed's ill-fated experiment....<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.

However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities: Sue Storm possesses the ability to mentally bend all wavelengths of light around her or her target. This ability allows her to render the target in question invisible to the human eye and all forms of electronic detection. Sue can also generate invisible force fields that allow her to levitate herself or other objects, propel or manipulate them however she wishes, and generate invisible force weapons and protective shields. <br/><br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>Susan tapped her foot impatiently. “C'mon Johnny we're going to be late.” She spoke to her younger brother who had his head stuck underneath a car in their garage. She was already wearing her Hawkgirl outfit that she herself made, feather by feather from out of a pillow. Johnny was in a boilersuit and covered with grease. “”Yeah hang on, Sis.”<br/><br/>“Now Johnny. I DO NOT want to miss the masquerade, I want to win best costume this time!” She had a competitive side to her fiestyness, along with her gorgeous blonde locks and curvy figure. She had to make a good contender this year. <br/><br/>“Yeah I said cool it, I gotta fix this for Dad.” Johnny was eager to please his father and be accepted as his not so brainy son, but ever so handy with all things mechanical. <br/><br/>“I said NOW!” Susan kicks his shin. “OW OW OWWWW what did you do that for?!!” Johnny rolls out from under the care and holds his shin bone. “Get dressed, shower, shave, and lets shove off.” Sue could be very bossy when it suited her, but she had to be with Johnny otherwise they'd never get anywhere sometimes.<br/><br/>At the Con, Sue walks the various stalls, having to stop at EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM to listen to Johnny try and chat up every single girl he came across. Though the girls seemed more interested in talking to Sue and asking how she made her cool outfit. Johnny got fed up and pushes Sue away “Go away you're cramping my style sis.” Sue folds her arms and pouts. “Fine, I'll be over there. BY MYSELF!” She yells at him and storms off. She never had a date, or even a best friend. When Johnny didn't want her around she had to be by herself. And this made her quite angry, after everything she did for him - dressed him for school, made his breakfast, lunch AND dinner, made sure he washed, brushed his teeth. She was practically his mother. And when he didn't want to hang around with her, she felt he was very ungrateful. <br/><br/>Susan found herself talking to an older lady who had made her own dresses at a stall, she delighted in talking fabrics and how they fit together, and she was eager to learn how she made her lovely dresses. And that's when she had a tap on her shoulder from Benjamin Graham. <br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">“Hey whats up? Sorry to barge in but I'm Ben, this is Reed.

Here goes...<br/><br/>“Uh, hi!” </font><br/><br/>Susan blinks at the two guys her age. She was used to men approaching her, and also used to Johnny being over protective. But something was different about these two this time. They weren't your usual jackasses. They both looked geeky, and Reed looked especially shy but she liked that. And suddenly she was excited. People her age wanting to talk to her who had the same likes.

Considering Tarene never lifted Mjolnir, its a cool twist that she becomes worthy in this RP, and for anyone who HAs read Thor-Goddess of Thunder, Thor puts Tarene on his list of potential ""Mjolnir-stealers"" so who knows, if she hadn't been beaten to it, perhaps she could wield Mjolnir (failing that, she has her own damn hammer).</div></div></div>"

It got especially stupid when someone else asked him if it would be okay to make a white character black, he said yes, and refused to explain why.  Or he did and I can't remember it for the life of me.<br/><br/>Really my whole philosophy on this idea of making more ethnic/LGBT characters is the creator SHOULD put in the thought about making more of his characters diverse.

So I had a few ideas what to do and figured I ask you guys what you prefer.<br/><br/>Ant/Giant Man - Hank Pym<br/><br/>The small town loser, Hank isn't the brightest, but is kind and tries.  However life for him hasn't been kind lately.  He just lost his job because of a misunderstanding, and his girlfriend broke up with him.  That night he drove out just needing fresh air and time to think.  It was then he was kidnapped by aliens who abducted him.  Hank vanished for over a year, presumed dead and soon forgotten.<br/><br/>When he returns to Earth he suddenly founds himself a super genius with the ability to grow and shrink to extreme sizes.  SHIELD brings him in and after helping him get back on his feet and testing him.  Give him a new alias and a mission to work at Stark Tech where he's to keep an eye on Tony Stark and what his up too.<br/><br/>Damien Brooks - Blade<br/><br/>The idea is essentially take the more devil may care style and look of Dante from Devil May Cry and mash him into Blade's fantastical vampire slaying.  The same kind of set up, his mother is a brothel lady who got bitten by a vampire while still pregnant with Damien.  When Damien was born the vampires killed his mother and raised him to be a ruler of the vampires.  However Damien was saved after some years by hunters who helped him understand the truth and train him to become a vampire hunter.<br/><br/>Years later Damien still hunts vampires in the night, his tastes evolving over the decades as he enjoys rock and roll, pizza and wine, and killing vampires.<br/><br/>Vance Astrovik - Justice<br/><br/>The powerful telekinetic superhero who grew up in a horrible home with an abusive father.  Vance becomes good friends with Robbie Baldwin, a fellow super powered person.  The two decided to become superheroes after high school, but things changed completely when while getting abused by his dad Vance killed his father in accidental self defense.<br/><br/>After pleading guilty Vance quietly served his time and is now a free man, with only Robbie left to be by his side. The two want to travel, be superheroes, and eventually will be starting up the New Warriors.<br/><br/>So which of them do you guys like the most?</div>"

His mother, Elizabeth Howlett, was married to John Howlett, a rich plantation owner. His father, James Logan, was one of the grounds keepers at John Howlett's plantation. Elizabeth had become dissatisfied with her husband's lack of sex drive at some point in their marriage, and had started a secret relationship with James Logan to satisfy her needs. When Elizabeth found out that she was with James' child, she tried to pass him off as John's son. The ruse was quickly seen through when James was born and looked nothing like his father; indeed, he shared a number of physical attributes with James Logan. When John found out, he spiraled into crippling depression. Elizabeth and John's marriage splintered as each threatened divorce at the drop of a dime, but never truly went through with it for fear of their own son, John Howlett, Jr.<br/><br/>Grandpa Howlett, father of James Howlett, saw his son's failure and set out to raise his grandsons correctly. He would use physical violence to punish young James and John, stating the moniker ""Firm, but Fair"" as explanation whenever his methods were brought into question. The two boys grew up in relative peace until John Howlett, Jr. first manifested his powers. A group of locals bullies had attacked his illegitimate brother, and John had stepped in to stop them. One of the kids drew a knife when the fight started to become heated. In response, John's body forced the young Howlett into popping his claws. John Howlett chased off the bullies. Eventually Grandpa Howlett learned of the event. Deeming his son a 'demon' for his mutant powers, Grandpa Howlett paid off a group of local thugs to drown John to death.<br/><br/>James was devastated. His only brother, the only person who seemed to care about him, was dead. His parents were too busy fighting to notice that James had started sneaking out of the house, looking for the men who killed John. Eventually, Wolverine found them, and used his own claws to kill the murderers out of revenge. James later found out that his Grandpa had paid the gang to attack John, and confronted his grandfather. When Mister Howlett tried to hit Logan, the boy lashed out and killed his grandpa too. The town rallied together and burned down Elizabeth and John's estate, and forced Logan to leave because of his crimes and mutation. The child was forced to hunt for survival. He became adept at killing, both people and animals alike.<br/><br/>Eventually Logan met an Indian belonging to the Blackfoot Tribe. The Native American adopted the savage Canadian child, bringing Logan back to the tribe where Logan would spend the rest of his pubescent life. Among the Blackfoots, Logan learned how to hunt and live off the land. The natives accepted the boy as one of them, even going so far as to name Logan ""Wolverine,"" after his strange mutation. While among the Blackfoot Tribe, Logan made friends with a pair of children, Rose and Dog. It was Rose who taught Wolverine the value of life, no matter where it came from. These teachings would later guide James on the path to good instead of evil. Dog taught Logan how to track. They would follow deer for miles through the woods, as silent as the darkness and swift as the wind. It was during these lessons that Wolverine's enhanced senses came into fruition. This is also where James met the first love of his life: Silver Fox, a beautiful Indian girl. <br/><br/>Here, with the tribe, James Howlett was happy. But it could not be so. A mysterious figure, Romulus, ordered Victor Creed to attack the tribe. The Blackfoot Tribe was slaughtered, and James would have died if not for his healing factor. Sabertooth dealt a powerful blow to Wolverine's head, causing James' memories to become fuddled and distorted. Knocked into a near feral state by his future archenemy, James traveled across Canada for the next seven years. He lived like an animal until he met an old miner named Smitty, who offered to take the boy in. James lived with Smitty until the start of the Great War.<br/><br/>Both Smitty and James (now going by the name Logan) joined up with the Canadian military when Britain joined the Great War. Smitty and James were separated when Wolverine (under the influencing hand of Romulus) was conscripted into the Devil's Brigade, a special forces/black ops group that didn't answer to the government. The brigade was led by one Silas Burr, who would one day become the mercenary known as Cyber. Romulus used the Devil's Brigade to fulfill his own agenda as the war progressed, and the brigade was sent to fight in Europe. At one point, the Canadian government attempted to arrest Silas Burr for war crimes he committed previously (namely, burning down a school full of German children) but Victor Creed appeared briefly and freed Cyber.<br/><br/>Wolverine was apart of a massive battle that occurred at Ypers, Belgium on April 15, 1915. It was here that Logan first encountered the forces of the Sentinel Order; a secret society made up of Germany's most rich and powerful, headed by the Trask family. Leading the Sentinels on the battlefield was a powerful angel named Azrael. Wolverine engaged Azrael in melee, and the two immortal warriors crossed blade and claws. The duel ended in the Angel of Death being sent back to whence he came, and Wolverine being cursed with eternal depression for as long as he lived.<br/><br/>After the Great War ended, Logan returned to Canada and lived alone until the next World War. When Hitler declared war on all of Western Europe, Logan once again joined the Canadian military. This time, Romulus did not have his puppet join the Devil's Brigade. Rather, Romulus had Logan placed in a unit assigned under Steve Rogers' command. So Wolverine teamed up with the original Captain America and his sidekick, Bucky Barnes. They were tasked with bringing down Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker and HYDRA, who were reportedly creating some kind of doomsday weapon. Logan and the Captain took down HYDRA and disabled the weapon before it was used, but Von Strucker escaped capture. Later, Wolverine was tasked with in infiltrating Mandipoor and freeing a group of children kidnapped by The Hand. Logan defeated The Viper and her ninja allies, freeing the children (one of which being a young Natasha Romanov) and bringing them back to Britain. During the war Logan encountered a vampire known as Bloodscream, an Asgardian troll named Roughouse, a mutant named the Silver Samurai, and even Nick Fury himself. Wolverine had been present in Nagasaki when the nuke was dropped on the city. If not for his healing factor, Logan would have died.<br/><br/>After the war ended, Logan decided to stay in Japan. He met a master martial artist and Samurai named Orgun, who offered to train Wolverine. Logan accepted, and the two worked together from dawn till dusk for years honing Logan's combat skills, but armed and unarmed. He also learned the code of honor that all Samuari followed, and took it up himself on Orgun's suggestion. Now knowledgeable of the code of Bushido, Logan found himself a home. It was then that he met a beautiful woman named Itsu, whom Logan started a family with. One day, while Logan was out training with Ogun, Romulus sent Sabertooth to murder Itsu and steal Wolverine's son, Daken. Devastated, James Howlett returned to Canada where he was brought on to the Weapon X Program by Romulus. Professor Thorton, Dr. Abraham Cornelius, and Carol Hines were brought in to examine the mutant. It was when The Professor discovered the extent of Wolverine's healing factor that he had the idea to cover his bones in Adamantium. The procedure would kill any normal human, and most superhumans, but with a healing factor like Logan's his body could fight off the Adamantium poisoning and keep him alive. Thorton's procedure was given the green light, and they proceeded to implant Wolverine with the Adamantium upgrades.<br/><br/>With that, Logan's superiors had his mind wiped once more and had Wolverine join Team X. Team X was a group mutants who worked as black ops special forces troops who did whatever Romulus told them to. No one knew exactly who Romulus was, but they knew that he was an ancient mutant with the ability to coarse animals to follow his bidding. The animal within Wolervine had betrayed him, and Logan was under Romulus' control for as long as his feral mind remained intact. For Logan to break free, he would have to acknowledge that he was more man than monster.<br/><br/>Team X consisted of Wolverine, Sabertooth, Maverick, John Wraith, Mastodon and later Deadpool, Lady Deathstrike and X-23. The latter three were all created using Wolverine's DNA and possessed various parts of Wolverine's mutation.<br/><br/>Team X operated during various wars and conflicts throughout the years. They battled the Sentinel Order's Asian division in Korea during the Korean War. When the Cold War began, Wolverine and Sabertooth were sent to Russia to locate a device capable of creating Carbonium, a metal similar to Adamantium but easier to synthesize, and less poisonous to humans when handled without the proper equipment. They encountered the agent known as Omega Red before escaping with the device and delivering it to Romulus. The team split up briefly when the Vietnam War began, with Wolverine sent to take down an out of control super soldier named Nuke. Logan succeeded in bringing the man down, and brought him back to Weapon X before being sent back to Vietnam. Wolverine continued to assassinate various politicians, generals and activists who stood in the way of mutant progress. Romulus' forces clashed with the Trask family and their Sentinel Order as history continued to move on, oblivious to the secret war occurring in the shadows.<br/><br/>Now it is 2012, and hiding their war is becoming harder and harder. The newest member of the Trask dynasty, Bolivar Trask, has taken over Trask Industries in America and started to work on the Sentinel program. Mutants are going missing every day, and Romulus believes Trask is somehow involved. So he was assigned Wolverine with the task of hunting down everyone involved in the scheme and bringing them to justice, freeing his mutant brothers and sisters in the process.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">MUTANT ABILITIES/SKILLS:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">TOP SECRET</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name="" Powers"" type=""button""> Powers [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Bone Claws: One of Wolverine's mutations, Logan was born with six 12-inch long claws that he can protract and retract out of and into his forearm at will. When retracted, these claws are housed between the skin and muscles of his arms. When popped, the claws come out between the knuckles of Logan's hands and cut through the skin and muscle located there. These wounds are temporary thanks to Wolverine's enhanced healing factor, though it's still quite painful whenever Logan releases them. These claws, like the rest of Wolverine's bones, are coated in Adamantium and can cut through nearly anything.<br/><br/>Healing Factor: Another of Wolverine's many mutations, Logan possesses a powerful healing factor. This healing factor can repair Logan's body from nearly any injury, from anything as minor as a cut to complete and total vaporization. As long as a single cell remains alive, Wolverine can regenerate his body; combined with his Adamantium laced bone structure, Logan is effectively immortal. The time it takes Logan to heal depends upon the injuries he has sustained. Something like a small cut in his skin will heal in seconds. More complex structures, such as bones or organs, take minutes. If reduced to nothing but his Adamantium skeleton, it would take Wolverine anywhere from thirty to forty five minutes to regenerate back to full strength.<br/><br/>Superhuman Senses: Yet another of Logan's mutations, Wolverine's senses are far superior to those of humans and even animals. Logan can see for miles with perfect clarity in the dark. He can hear a pin drop from a mile away, if he focuses his hearing to their maximum strength. Logan has learned to control his hearing to keep it from being distracting. Wolverine can pick out scents from things that haven't been nearby in weeks, and is able to track them across continents. Combining all of his enhanced senses together, Wolverine is able to detect when a person is lying due to chemicals changes in their systems.<br/><br/>Super Strength: Thanks to his constant cellular regeneration and unbreakable skeleton, Logan has developed strength impossible for a normal human. Wolverine can bench press two tons, snap chains with his bare hands, and throw half a ton of weight across a room.<br/><br/>Super Speed: Similar to his Super Strength, Wolverine has used his mutations to surpass human limitations. Logan can sprint fast enough that he disappears from the human eye, and can effectively dodge bullets by following the gunman's hand and moving out of the way before the shooter's eyes register that Logan has, indeed, moved.<br/><br/>Enhanced Immune System: Logan's healing factor extends to protecting him from not only physical injury but also sickness and extreme weather conditions. Wolverine can hold his breathe for forty minutes before passing out. He can sleep in subzero climates completely naked.<br/><br/>Adamantium-laced Skeleton: The Weapon X Program has surrounded all of James Howlett's bones in the indestructible metal known as Primary Adamantium. Nothing on earth or beyond can bend or dent it. The only powers assumed capable of damaging Adamantium are cosmic forces like the Phoenix Force or Galactus. If this is the case, however, is not known for sure.<br/><br/>Martial Arts Master: When Logan was conscripted into the Weapon X Program, he had a number of martial art styles taught to him by the world's premier masters in the arts. Some of the styles Wolverine has mastered include: Jiu-Jitsu, Taekwondo, Silat, Kung-Fu, Muay Thai, Krav Maga, and American boxing. Logan Howlett is one of the most versatile martial artists on the planet, with the skill to go toe-to-toe with Captain America, Black Panther, and even the immortal Iron Fist. While not as technically masterful as those listed, Wolverine's powers make up for it in a fight.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">SAMPLE STORY ARCS:</span> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Enemy of the State:</span> Wolverine has been brainwashed by the mysterious men behind the Weapon X Program, and tasked with the job of eliminating various enemies to mutantkind.

Logan joins SHIELD and their fight against injustice as he desperately tries to forget the atrocities he was forced to commit. This is the time when he meets Xavier, and the X-Men.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span>: <br/><br/>""My name's Logan Howlett. People call me the Wolverine. I'm the best I am at what I do, and what I do...isn't very nice."" Logan was perched atop a gargoyle overlooking a nearby hotel. He'd climbed up the side of the cathedral earlier that day, and had been waiting up here for his target to return to his bedroom. While he waited, Wolverine liked to do these little recording. It kept the assassin sane at times like this; times when he was alone, moments from taking another life. It was funny. You'd think someone like Logan would have gotten over the whole fuss of murder a long time ago, with all that blood on his hands. But truth is? You never get over it. Poppin' the claws hurts every time.<br/><br/>""I've been tracking this guy, name's Henry Jenkins, for a couple'a weeks. S'pose to be some big shot in New York City's underworld. My handlers seem to think Mister Jenkins runs a Mutant Trafficking ring; one of the biggest in these United States o' America. He's staying in a fancy hotel downtown, waiting for a couple'a buyers from overseas to meet him there tomorrow. But he won't live to see tomorrow. 'Cuz he is gettin' a visit from yours truly.""<br/><br/>Logan tapped on his ear, shutting off the recording device for the time being. He'd seen something. Wolverine brought a pair of futuristic binoculars up to his eyes, pressing one of the many buttons on the side. Logan's vision washed blue as the thermal visor came to life. Logan maneuvered the device around the hotel penthouse, watching the people inside. They were little more than blobs of yellow and red heat, but Logan compensated for that using his sense of smell. If he took a big enough whiff, he could pick out the individual smells from each and every person inside the hotel and outside on the streets. Logan could also smell the garbage truck turning the corner. And the hot dog stand on the sidewalk under him. ""There ya are.."" Wolverine muttered, watching the front door to the penthouse open. Four more shapes entered the apartment and made their way towards the dinning room. He could smell the target's sweat from here. That was definitely Henry Jenkins.<br/><br/>Wolverine pulled a grappling hook off his belt, before placing the binoculars back into his backpack. It wasn't elegant, but it worked. Logan pointed the piece of equipment at the penthouse, aiming for the roof. He fired it off, the hook flying through the air silently before slamming through the concrete and brick of the hotel roof. He tested the line for strength. Once Logan was sure it would hold all three hundred pounds of him, Wolverine secured his backpack to his back before jumping off the gargoyle and swinging across the street hundreds of feet in the air. For a second, Wolverine felt like he was Spider-Man; what with all the swinging across New York and such. But there wasn't time for such childish thoughts, so Logan set those aside and harnessed the animal inside.<br/><br/>The sound of glass shattering alerted the seven guards inside the penthouse to Wolverine's presence. They drew their sidearms, making their way towards the hallway where the sound had come from. The first one to get there was met with three claws through the skull. As Wolverine pulled the dead bodyguard off his claws, shoving him away with a kick to the dead man's chest, two more guards appeared from behind. They brought their guns up and opened fire, unloading on the intruder. Wolverine roared, flinging their buddy over his shoulders like he was filled with feathers. The three men collided and tumbled to the floor. Wolverine crossed the hallway in the blink of an eye, impaling both of the downed gunmen in their chests. More guards were approaching. Wolverine glanced at the ceiling. Perfect.<br/><br/>Two more guards walked into the hallway. They found their three comrades, dead. Stabbed to death. One of the thugs bent down to examine the dead for clues, while his partner watched his back. Suddenly a pair of clawed hands fell from the sky, stabbing into the bodyguard's shoulders. Logan dragged the screaming guy into the air, before tossing him out of the broken window. The guy screamed the whole way down. The second goon rolled around on the ground, moving to the wall as he looked around. Terrified. Panicking. Wolverine loved it. ""W-Where are you?!"" He screamed. ""Here."" The mercenary appeared in full view. Standing in front of the mercenary, was the Wolverine. Clothed in orange and black spandex, claws extending from his knuckles, <a href=""http://img11.deviantart.net/dea7/i/2009/193/0/d/x_men_evolution_wolverine_pose_by_gatnne.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Wolverine</a> was a terrifying sight.<br/><br/>In the bedroom, the final two guards stood next to Henry Jenkins. Jenkins was utterly afraid, clutching his fat knees to his chest as he tried to prevent himself from fainting. There was a knock on the door. The guards brought their sub machine guns up to their hips, opening fire. ""Stop!"" Jenkins shouted. ""Stop shooting, damn it!"" The two goons complied, and their was nothing but silence as they reloaded their guns and waited. Then the door knob began to turn. Jenkins started screaming bloody murder as Wolverine opened the door and dashed into the room. Jenkins' bodyguards tried to defend him. They really did. But they couldn't even see their attacker, let alone have time to aim at him. Wolverine slashed both of their throats open, sending blood spraying across the bed room as they fell on the floor. Dead.<br/><br/>""P-Please don't kill me. I'll give you anything. Anything! Please!""<br/><br/>Wolverine grabbed Jenkins by his sweaty, grubby throat and slammed him against the wall. Jenkins started to cry, and pissed himself. Logan growled, placing his hand against Jenkins' chin. Two claws shot up, centimeters from hitting Henry. ""You know where the third one's comin' up."" Logan growled. ""Tell me where the kids are, or I turn ya into a shish kabob."" The guy nodded furiously. ""49th and Roe. There's a warehouse on the docks. T-The kids are in the basement."" Wolverine pushed harder against the guys chin, his last claw barely poking out. ""NO! T-There's a dozen guards, all armed! A-And...And...A boat's comin' for them some time tomorrow."" Logan wasn't satisfied yet, so he let the claw prick Jenkins' neck. ""There's a hundred and twenty three kids down there, all mutants! From six to eighteen! They're suppose to go to Trask Industries in Boston. I was going to meet a representative from Trask tomorrow. That's all I know, I swear."" Wolverine took a whiff of the child slaver. He was telling the truth. ""See ya in Hell, bub. Say hi to Azrael for me."" The final claw shot up into Jenkins' brain and out the top of his skull, killing him instantly.<br/><br/>""My names Wolverine. I'm the best I am at what I do, and what I do...I love ta do more than anything else in the world.""</div></div>"

The thing that annoys me is a lot of actors talk about how they love the role, and would love to renew their contracts. When why don't they decrease their wage to a reasonable amount or y'know.... do it for free. I mean the likes of RDJ in particular, yeah he's a cool guy. Though I also think he's kind of a dick.<br/><br/>He says he loves the role yet takes more and more money every movie. If he loved it that much he'd put the money back into making the movie, though it doesn't annoy me as much as actors going ""Donate to this charity!"" It's like.

It's supposedly why Tatum almost backed out of Gambit, not creative control but how much he'd make after the movie was released. Backend compensation I think it was called....<br/><br/>The F4 could carry phase four on their shoulders.

However life for him hasn't been kind lately.  He just lost his job because of a misunderstanding, and his girlfriend broke up with him.  That night he drove out just needing fresh air and time to think.  It was then he was kidnapped by aliens who abducted him.  Hank vanished for over a year, presumed dead and soon forgotten.<br/><br/>When he returns to Earth he suddenly founds himself a super genius with the ability to grow and shrink to extreme sizes.  SHIELD brings him in and after helping him get back on his feet and testing him.  Give him a new alias and a mission to work at Stark Tech where he's to keep an eye on Tony Stark and what his up too.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/drewvonawesome"">@DrewVonAwesome</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I personally believe that Hank Pym is probably the best option of the three you listed.  We have plenty of Avengers, so there should be ample opportunities for interaction (particularly in the future when the Avengers form).  As long as Janet van Dyne can be MJ's fashion mentor, I'm fine with this idea.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-b"">Damien Brooks - Blade</span><br/><br/>The idea is essentially take the more devil may care style and look of Dante from Devil May Cry and mash him into Blade's fantastical vampire slaying.  The same kind of set up, his mother is a brothel lady who got bitten by a vampire while still pregnant with Damien.  When Damien was born the vampires killed his mother and raised him to be a ruler of the vampires.  However Damien was saved after some years by hunters who helped him understand the truth and train him to become a vampire hunter.<br/><br/>Years later Damien still hunts vampires in the night, his tastes evolving over the decades as he enjoys rock and roll, pizza and wine, and killing vampires.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/drewvonawesome"">@DrewVonAwesome</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I don't necessarily see anything wrong with Blade.  He just might be isolated at times, since we don't have many Street-Level characters in this game (besides the all-purpose team-up character better known as Spider-Man :D).  While that does not mean Blade cannot interact with the other characters (see Nick Fury's Ultimate Avengers.  I do believe Blade was on that team), Blade does not have as many ""obvious"" team-up choices as Hank Pym does.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-b"">Vance Astrovik - Justice</span><br/><br/>The powerful telekinetic superhero who grew up in a horrible home with an abusive father.  Vance becomes good friends with Robbie Baldwin, a fellow super powered person.  The two decided to become superheroes after high school, but things changed completely when while getting abused by his dad Vance killed his father in accidental self defense.<br/><br/>After pleading guilty Vance quietly served his time and is now a free man, with only Robbie left to be by his side. The two want to travel, be superheroes, and eventually will be starting up the New Warriors.<br/><br/>So which of them do you guys like the most?<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/drewvonawesome"">@DrewVonAwesome</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>I would put Justice as my 2nd choice.  Unless Vance is fresh out of high school (i.e. graduated last school year), your idea might hinder any attempts for a Firestar-Justice relationship.  Creating the New Warriors would not be a bad idea, although unless other players pick up the other characters, it might be full of NPC's.<br/><br/>Also, I'll try to update the roster as soon as I can get to it.</div>"

Born to Professor John Grey and Elaine Grey. This fiery red head showed at an early age that she possessed extraordinary power and was very intelligent. She was the Queen Bee in high school, perfect at every aspect of education with straight A grades and also very athletic to boot. She played in all of the sports teams; hockey, softball etc. but she was mostly known for being captain of the girls’ soccer team at Belleville High. She won many trophies and awards for her sporting nature and her academic feats. She dated the most popular guy in school, Duncan for a little while. And if she had leaded a perfectly normal life she would have gone on to have a scholarship with Harvard University. <br/><br/>But at the age of 15, she did not have an ordinary life. Her best friend Angie was ran over by a car, the emotional impact this created, caused Jean’s mutant X gene to kick in - at first telepathy. She felt Angie’s pain and thoughts as she died. This caused such distress to the teenage red head, so much that her other power also awakened – telekinesis. Every car on the road around them exploded into the air by an 'unknown force', which later civilians were told a freak gale force storm had hit out of nowhere. <br/><br/>Later that day Professor Xavier and his then friend and colleague Eric Lehnsherr, before he formed the Brotherhood, was alerted to this phenomenon and visited the street where Jean lived. They discovered that all of the cars on the street, all garden hoses and all objects outside of the houses were levitating. The neighbours were scared and had deserted the whole street. Jean’s parents were very worried by their daughter’s weird abilities. Xavier and Eric saw unlimited potential within her. Xavier foresaw the problems of a distressed Jean being in public while Eric saw only raw power to be used against mutant haters. She had isolated herself from everyone and everything at the loss of her friend. Before they really knew what Jean was, her other school friends knew there was something weird about her after that and shunned her. Jean fell into a depression, but Xavier took her under his wing. <br/><br/>Eric and Charles eventually fell out over the formation of the X-men and the inclusion of Jean grey into the midst over the team's ""purpose"". She was the first female member of the original founding members: Cyclops, Angel, Beast and eventually Storm as their 5th. Xavier taught her how to use her telekinetic and telepathic powers to help people and fight for mutant kind. She and Scott Summers became best friends, even to forming a telepathic link to each other, but before they could start a relationship, Jean had reached a high level of expertise in genetics (under Xavier’s tutelage) and it was time to for her to unlock her mind and go to Harvard University. The two were then separated for 5 years. <br/><br/>Whilst Jean was away studying to become a doctor of genetics, she was able to keep her powers in check thankfully. Unfortunately, Scott became close to another during his depression when Jean left - Lee Forrester, unknowingly it was Emma Frost in disguise. Emma is a member of the Inner Circle, the reason why she used Scott to get close to the X-men was so she could get to Jean, their members tracked down the Phoenix Force that dwelled within her. Emma put a mental impression onto Scott as she is a telepathic mutant, she was also able to block Xavier's mental probes to come across as a normal human. This allows her to infiltrate the X-mansion as Scott's girlfriend. And so instead of Scott and Jean, the iconic mutant couple, it so became Scott and Lee.<br/><br/>When Jean graduated with a PhD, she was heartbroken to find Scott had moved on. But that didn’t let it stop her from becoming a senior member of the X-men and one of the most popular teachers for the newer intake of mutants. She also became the institute's medical doctor; she helped the Professor build Cerebro to seek out new mutants in need. And she was beloved by all her team mates and pupils alike. <br/><br/>Now the year is 2012, Dr. Jean Grey now helps Professor Xavier recruit struggling mutants and teach them as he did for her. The Marvel All-Stars twist - Emma Frost (under another's identity) has finally got her Scott Summers and Jean is unattached, in every storyline/alternative universe Wolverine never gets the love of his life. Maybe it’s finally time he gets a HAPPY ending in this alternate world? This is for fans of the Emma/Cyclops and Jean/Wolverine couplings.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and abilities:</span><br/>Telekinesis<br/>Telepathy<br/>Astral projection<br/>Mind reading and control<br/>Memory alteration and erasure<br/>Psionic blasts<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs: </span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Mr Sinister and The Savage Land</span> – ever since Jean was young, Sinister had been obsessed with her genetic material.

But we will have her as the GOOD Phoenix. Her powers allow her to generate psycho kinetic fire. And this is where Emma Frost came in; she had infiltrated the X-men to keep an eye on Jean, as a member of the Circle/Hellfire Club. As she knew, she was the one born in this generation to inhibit the Phoenix Force.

WATCH OUT!” Cyclops screams across a war-torn New York city street. Jean gasps as she dodges a laser beam shot at her from behind, she managed to dodge it just in time. It came from a large spaceship. An alien invasion was being simulated in their war room. <br/><br/>She turns around and throws her hand out toward the ship, it moves backward and smashes against the side of a skyscraper. “Nicely done!” Storm remarks. Jean nods toward her, she'd come a long way from not being able to control her outbursts to being able to make precision quick-thought decisions. She helped her to control her mind powers. Unfortunately, in doing so, she stole that psychic link that she had with Scott and manipulated him into thinking he had more of a link to her as she wanted Cyclops for herself. <br/><br/>Cyclops' eye beam slashed straight through a spaceship, ripping it in half. Jean then puts up a forcefield of telekinetic energy around Cyclops as the other ships concentrate fire at him. “This alien invasion is a bit extreme don't you think?” Maybe she just couldn't take it that seriously. But unbeknownst to the X-men Xavier had a future premonition that involved the Shi'ar Empire. And then devised a programme that incorporated the Shi'ar ships to ready his X-men for the possibility of invasion. Humans were NOT alone in the galaxy.<br/> <br/>“Perhaps. Though I do believe the Professor has his reasons.” Ororo's strong African accent echoes through her wind tunnel over the sounds of battle. Jean could use telepathy and telekinesis at the same time, that's what made her so powerful....and dangerous. Emma Frost had known she was a level 5 mutant since the Circle began to watch the Grey teenager at age 15. The Circle's objective, millenia after millenia, to seek out the 'Phoenix Force' possessors that were born every five hundred years. After the very first Phoenix Force bearer levelled an entire empire a very long time ago with a single wave of fire, the “Templars” of the time formed a secret society dedicated to stop it happening again. The Inner Circle/Hellfire Club is now headed by Sebastian Shaw at present. Emma's objective was to infiltrate the X-men and watch over Jean Grey.<br/><br/>Now came the real test – how much could Jean Grey handle? How much could she be pushed to the limits without breaking? Xavier HAD to know. He didn't want to do this but...he set the danger level to maximum. At this level, there was every chance the X-men could be fatally wounded. But he had faith in Jean, Scott and Storm. He reserved Warren and Hank for rescue on the sidelines. <br/><br/>All of a sudden the mother ship approached the city of New York. Ten times bigger than that of the normal ships. It readied an all mighty beam blast to level the entire city. As it hit, there was an enormous gale force wind that shot toward them. Jean's only option was to shield all three of them in her protective psycho barrier. The force was incredible, she had to dig her feet into the cracked ground by pushing herself downward at the same time. She had to hold it or they would be flown back and be lost in the hurricane winds. A skyscraper falls on top of them. Now she had an incredible weight on top of her as well. <br/><br/>Pushing her power to the very limits of her mind, concentrating on nothing else but survival. Showing no signs of backing down, pushing herself even further. Cyclops blasted through the forcefield and broke the skyscraper into pieces. As Jean gritted her teeth and screamed in pain that her mind was feeling right now, a small fire began to emanate from the centre of Jean's chest. Emma was half way across the city as she felt the Phoenix Force arise. With widened eyes behind a car wheel she gasps <span class=""bb-i"">'No....not now!....'</span> She thought in horror, thinking this was it, the moment Jean would not be strong enough to contain it. And she wasn't there to supress it or absorb it. <br/><br/>But Jean did not unleash the full potential of the Phoenix. The blast wave passes and the skyscraper debris crumbles to the sides of them. Jean could relax, she puts the forcefield down. Panting, she looks around, she gives the other two a thumbs up before passing out completely. The danger room powers down and Beast runs in roaring. “JEAN!!” He picks her up in his huge blue furry arms. “Thank god she's breathing”. She was smiling as she lay there unconscious. She knew she could save them from something awful. Prof X sighed with relief and hung his head down, feeling guilty he just put his prized apprentice through all that. <br/><br/>Storm watches Hank take Jean away to the medic-bay with her arms holding her elbows. She was worried. Emma pulls up outside the mansion, she'd found the Phoenix Force of this era. And she was the one who was going to have to stop Jean from killing millions. She and the Circle would have to keep an even closer eye on her from now on during her upcoming Harvard days. ""Now just to get in close to Scott...as Lee Forrester."" Emma schemed.<br/><br/>Thankfully, not a day went by with any incident that Jean needed to use such a force again. That is until 2012.</div>"

As for Emma Frost, yes she it would make more sense for her to be on the team for the Cyclops pairing, and if anyone does want to pick her up, she isn't isolated at first at least and then can break away from the X-men if they want her to etc. She's also an Inner Circle member at the same time.  </div>"

The testing though left him with amnesia which turns him into a much more care free loveable rich guy who always seems a bit too eager to not wear clothes and is bi-sexual (you know... so Iceman and whoever else has a chance.)<br/><br/>Though if we're on the topic of ideas I had tossed around in my own head.  I also had turning Billy Kaplan, Teddy Altman, and Tommy Shepherd into Scarlet Witch, Captain Marvel, and Quicksilver respectfully.  The same general idea of being Magneto's kids who were reborn.  Except for Captain Marvel but he could be there more for whatever reason... there for Ms. Marvel or something...<br/><br/>Also <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a>, why do you keep spelling it Reid Richards in not only the characters listing and in your Spider-Man profile?</div>"

The two grew up in the war torn Sokovia, where even from an early age they fought against the corrupted Sokovian Government at Erik's urging.  While Wanda was very much for about the cause, Pietro wasn't quite as much, however he deeply cared for Wanda and went along with everything more to keep her safe rather than fighting the power.<br/><br/>As Pietro and Wanda grew older their X-Genes became activated and an already active and impatient Pietro gained superhuman speed.  Making him even more impatient and irritable.  Still he held to his own convictions and using their powers the two worked in guerrilla operations together until Erik Lehnsherr took Pietro aside and offered him a chance to do some work in another area.<br/><br/>With the growing number of mutants causing civil unrest.  Pietro joined his adoptive father in The Brotherhood.  There though he watched Erik clashing with respected college Charles Xavier on how to handle the crisis.  The more of it he watched, the more Pietro lost respect for his adoptive father and in a moment that shocked everyone involved.  Told Erik he was staying with Xavier when Erik left to form his own group.<br/><br/>Legally adopted and registered into a US citizen.  Pietro didn't join the X-Men as it was being formed, instead wanting to find himself as all his life he had seemingly done things for other people.  He discovered punk music and movies, both of which gave him a kind of joy he never really had before.  He started learning how to play guitar as a hobby and has an impressive DVD and VHS collection.  Though considering his snarky and simple minded approach to problem solving left Xavier cautious about having someone he viewed as the son he didn't realize he wanted being in the X-Men.  Especially considering that Pietro's adopted father was rapidly becoming an enemy.  Making Charles worry about where Pietro's allegiances will lay.  However Pietro has assured Charles that he wants nothing to do with his former father.  Having gone so far as to dye his normally white hair brown to show his changed ways.  While he searches though for his sister Wanda however, Pietro has put his attention to being a part of the X-Men.  Knowing that he's got a long way to go in order to earn their trust.<br/>Power and Abilities: Able to reach speeds around 770 mphs, aka the speed of sound.  All while not suffering from any wind or frictional problems.  With his powers Pietro has very high reaction times, and can accomplish feats such as running across the top of water, running up the side of buildings, and running in a circle fast enough to create whirlwind vortexes.  Though he hasn't quite perfected it yet, Pietro can also vibrate the molecules in his body fast enough to essentially phase through solid objects.<br/>Sample Story Arcs: - Pietro's first and foremost goal is to show his new found teammates in the X-Men that he can be trusted despite his past.<br/><br/>Pietro after some time searching finds Wanda only to realize she's changed for the worst.<br/><br/>- (Hypothetical idea) When the X-Men have Pietro play double agent and join the Brotherhood as a means of stopping them from inside. Pietro struggles with finding complete acceptance in the group and has to choose if he can stay loyal to the X-Men.<br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>Pietro sighed irritated as he glanced back over at the clock, 10 pm.  Once again all he could do was regret making it to the bar so quickly as the rest of his friends were apparently taking their sweet time.  Sure Pietro could of just borrowed one of Xavier's cars and just drove to the sleezy bar like a normal person.  But that wasn't Pietro's style at all.  Plus just sitting in New York City traffic would've been worst.  Gritting his teeth Pietro ran fingers though his chocolate brown hair as he glanced around.  It was hard to explain it to someone who didn't understand.  But while they were all suppose to meet up around 10, even just the few minutes of waiting was killing the Eastern European.<br/><br/>Finally though they all arrived, Pietro had to bite his tongue as he said his greetings to them while holding back the string of expletives he wanted to spew out for them making him wait around and drive a screwdriver while the band was doing its last tune ups.  For all he knew though Pietro's friends didn't know about his superhuman running.  They have said they were completely cool with mutants in discussions in the past.  However as Pietro would say to other mutants, “My powers are no body's fucking business...”<br/><br/>“Alright so what the Hell band is this?”  Pietro asked, his voice still dripping with the Eastern European accent his always had, as the performers were on stage about to start.  “They're called The Dazzlers, some group out of LA.”  One of his friends called back as the feedback from the speakers hissed off of a plugged in guitar.  The lead singer, a woman who looked pretty frail but dangerous enough to not want to say it to her face, stepped up to the microphone with a snarl.<br/><br/>“IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE SHOW YOU CAN KISS MY F---ING A--!!!”<br/><br/>“Ah she's a woman after my heart...”  Pietro half-joked as the band started into their first song.</div>"

Just asking because the spelling is quite similar.  If you intended on having them from modern-day Slovakia, note that during the period that Pietro and Wanda were growing up there, it probably would have been Czechoslovakia (the dissolution of Czechoslovakia happened around 1989, so that is about around when the Brotherhood ended).  Technically there was a Slovakia (or rather a Slovak Socialist Republic), but it was still part of Czechoslovakia.  And I assume Magneto was fighting against the Communist Regime, correct?<br/><br/>2)  I don't know about anyone else, but I kind of envisioned the 80's Brotherhood similar to <a href=""http://heroeswiki.com/The_Company"" rel=""nofollow"">The Company</a> in Heroes.  Of course there would not be the ""one of us, one of them"" rule, but they would have worked more in the shadows.  I am fine with mutants being around for quite some time and everyone else (non-mutants) just did not have a proper name for them yet (and the X-gene has not been discovered until relatively recently in the IC.  Maybe I should write up an NPC applications for Professor X, Magneto, and Nick Fury so that everyone is on the same page.<br/><br/>3)  The application does not make it really apparent whether or not Pietro is currently part of the X-Men at the moment.  That would be important due to the X-Men related story-arcs happening at the moment.  The sample post makes it seem like he is, but he isn't.<br/><br/>4)  After trying to look up Eastern European, I finally concluded that no one can really agree upon the boundaries between Central, Eastern, and Southern Europe.  I give up!  Wikipedia says that Slovakia is Central Europe, but the Eastern Europe page is a total mess.<br/><br/>5)  I see you name dropping Dazzler, although apparently she has the mouth of a sailor now...</div>"

I don't have any real problems with that part of the background.  I just wanted to point out that in your application, you wrote that Quicksilver is from <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slovakia"" rel=""nofollow"">Slovakia</a>, not <a href=""http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/Sokovia"" rel=""nofollow"">Sokovia</a>.  If you really meant to say Sokovia (i.e. the fictional Eastern European country in Age of Ultron) and <span class=""bb-b"">NOT</span> the real-life modern day country called Slovakia, which use to be part of Czechoslovakia, you need to change those references.  From the post I am quoting, it seems like you meant Sokovia (MCU country); however, your character sheet says Slovakia (which was <span class=""bb-b"">NOT</span> in Age of Ultron).<br/><br/>And when you say ""Era"", I assume you mean Eru.  As your character sheet stands as of now, it does not conform with Eru's ""Purple Man"" CS.  Right now, according to your CS, Magneto was fighting the Communist Regime in Czechoslovakia and <span class=""bb-b"">NOT</span> the Shadow Conquerors in Sokovia.  Again, if you meant for the 80's Brotherhood to be fighting the Shadow Conquerors in Sokovia, you need to replace all references to Slovakia to Sokovia.  I am fine with and all for your character sheet matching up with Eru's Purple Man.  You just have to make sure it actually does.</div>"

The core founders of the group included Erik Lehnsherr and Charles Xavier - among other faces, many of which who were the largely unknown phenomena named mutants. It appeared afterwards that Lehnsherr had been seeking mutants to join the group, though it was in truth only dedicated to general aid and relief. The group's base of operation - Sokovia - however, was an unfortunate place to be at the time. Corruption and oppression ran rampant in the streets, and all of it originated from the powerful Government that ruled the country. Erik, noticing these drastic afflictions perpetrated by humans, rose to lead the syndicate into direct conflict with the corrupt Sokovian Government. The President and the Government together had plagued Lehnsherr's time in Sokovia - damning him and his accomplices to endless labours and extortionate taxes. Wanda and Pietro Maximoff, two siblings with an undisclosed past and profound dormant abilities, grew up in the guerilla warfare of the Brotherhood-turned-terrorist group under the protection and guidance of Lehnsherr. The two quickly took to him as a father figure where there previously was none - Wanda admiring his natural leadership skills and obvious superiority to the common man. <br/><br/>With the continued state of distress in Sokovia, the ranks of the group expanded. It was renamed to the 'Shadow Conquerors' and Charles Xavier with some of his fellow accomplices were becoming more at odds with Erik's chosen tactics. The leaders, Lehnsherr's specifically chosen compatriots, employed more elite and experienced operatives. They primarily only included the oppressed populace of Sokovia, but hungry eyes looking in from outside the country soon became involved. The Shadow Conquerors altered once again from an organisation fuelled by anger to a bloodthirsty group of killers - at least out in the field. Sokovia descended into chaos, and that's when the X-Genes of the twins came to fruition. Chaos became a homestead for Wanda, and Pietro himself gained the ability to move at superhuman speed. They eventually adopted titles to pair with their gifts: Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. Erik took great interest, more so than before, in the two. He saw they were bound for great things.<br/><br/>Wanda had always seemed destined to continue Erik's quest against the Government, if something were to take him out of the field. Coincidentally, he did leave with Wanda's coming of age - along with her brother, Pietro, and many of the mutants involved with Sokovia. They had departed for the United States soon after a seismic separation had occurred between Erik's Shadow Conquerors and Xavier's more pacifist ideas. The two groups were at complete odds, purely over mutant affairs and the position of mutantkind in relation to humanity. Wanda had been interested in staying with her adoptive father and becoming involved in the mutant situation instead of the war with the Government - but she had grown too attached to the former cause. She had grown up with the endless conflicts, and had been involved to a much greater extent than Pietro.<br/><br/>The Maximoff twins had been close physically throughout their upbringing, though it was apparent that as time progressed - the two drifted apart mentally. Pietro was not devoted to the cause that Wanda and her 'father' Erik had taken to heart, and Wanda's growing urge for vengeance against the perpetrators of all the negativity she saw around her only increased. She still loved him, but it was unrequited, a love born out of the shared blood that flowed through their veins. She looked upon a lot of his qualities with disdain, but perhaps with the right counsel he could be prepared for greater purposes. Perhaps, when she had finished crushing the Government, she would seek him out in America. <br/>Wanda had always shuddered when people mentioned the future. Fighting the Government had been her whole life - could she find a similar cause to partake in? Would it have to be for the good of the common man? As she matured into her mutant life, Erik's phrase constantly reoccurred in her mind - '<span class=""bb-i"">homo superior</span>'. She knew that he and her brother were fighting over mutantkind on another, unfamiliar, continent. She certainly considered the plight within her possible options. She had decided to leave, after the war was over. Only, she had to survive - both physically and mentally - first.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#9e0b0f"">Powers and Abilities</font>:</span> <span class=""bb-b"">Chaos Magic Reality Warping</span> - Hex Fields, Telekinesis, Flight, Force Fields.

She had pondered about the rather erratic strike she had ordered, though only briefly. The secret war had been going on for years now, and its conflicts were pitiful and sparse. Then the enemy had suddenly introduced a third party. <br/><br/>""Latveria."" She hissed, to none but herself. A cacophony of cultivated fields were split roughly by the border - a large and imposing stretch of stone and steel, manned and defended by the Latverian monarch's soldiers. She had never seen the monarch himself, though the name 'Doom' had been a topic of conversation throughout her entire life, and the rumours were often unbelievable and terrifying. She was greatly interested by the man - if he was even mortal - and the drastic move by the enemy to target his state had made her chuckle with excitement. She knew it would not be long until this 'Doom' was before her. <br/>The strange defenders of the border were unlike anything she'd expected. They were all identical, large and stationary - like gargoyles defending a medieval keep. Penetrating colours of green and silver shone with the moon's glare as her pawns approached.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">If they had the audacity to steal under the guise of me, then what else is there for me to do but raise the stakes</span>?<br/>She sneered as her gift held her high in the air. It was a picture of twisted beauty if one were to see her up close.<br/>She focused on the menial response of the Latverian soldiers as her Shadows let loose with silenced gunfire. They appeared remarkably stalwart, barely even fazed by the bullets that should have proven fatal. They began to mechanically move towards her pawns. She wasn't particularly unnerved by the strange soldier's formability - if dead bodies were produced in Government uniforms then she didn't care, even if they were disguises. She had worked with one of her Conquerors, a drunkard but efficient strategist named Ivan Jankovic. They had agreed on this course of action shortly before she had sent the man to dispose of the potentially threatening Zebediah Killgrave.<br/>She giggled to the clouds amongst her. She was manoeuvring the pieces of the war chessboard with a meticulous pragmatism. No matter how far her pawns made it into Latveria, the first signs of conflict would still have sufficed. Doom would be alert soon enough, and the monarch's weaponry would let her crush the enemy once and for all after she had twisted his strings into a trade agreement. And if not... well, she had her gift.<br/>For was she not Wanda Maximoff, master of Chaos?<br/><br/>Was she not the Scarlet Witch?</div></div>"

Ever since she was a little girl growing up on Xandar. They were the pinnacle off what a Xandarian could achieve. They protected two galaxies against threats, helping people all over the galaxy and getting to explore previously unexplored space. What more could she want? What more could someone achieve? For her there was nothing else. Her father, a merchant inspired this in him. Brought her up on stories of the Nova-Corps. It had been his dream too become a Nova, until an accident aboard a starship damaged his brain making him prone to seizures and incapable of handling the immensity of the Nova-Force.<br/><br/>She made it into the Star-Academy at eighteen, worked her way through. Pushing herself, constantly. At the expense of any real social life, upon graduating she was accepted into the Nova-Corps as a corpsman! The moment she put on that helmet, felt the Nova-Force flow through her. She knew she had made it. This was her duty, this was where she belonged to be. This was her life, she even met someone just like her. Garthan Saal. The two moved through the ranks together, often working on missions together and forming a relationship that would later prove to be the end off Garthan Saal however while it lasted, it was perfect.<br/><br/>They travelled the stars, helped people. Saved lives, never letting the relationship between them jeopardize the mission (Which is why it wasn't frowned upon or stomped out of existence). They were committed to each other but first and foremost to the Corps. It was the proudest moment of her life, her fathers life and Garthan Saals life when everything went wrong. <br/><br/>Tensions between Xandar and the Kree Empire were at an all time high, despite a truce and ceasefire Xandar began to lose contact with it's colonies, no sighting off Kree ships or any other ship for that case. In fact the Kree at least appeared to be as perplexed as the Xandarians and the Nova-Corps. Each planet that lost contact was destroyed, no-one had been left alive. It was not clear what had caused such destruction as it was a complete extinction event on each of the planets hit.<br/><br/>Then a ship appeared in orbit, Nova Prime went up to face it with the full power of the Hive mind and Nova-Force, ten of his best warriors and yet whatever weapon the ship possessed it truly was formidable. His ship approaching the planet, Garthan Saan accessed the World-Mind and was granted permission to become Nova Prime. Though before he went to fight the invaders he created a gravitational field and cast Mexxa off the planet, the World-mind recognizing that Garthan Saal would not commit himself to fight the invaders until Mexxa was out of the way interfaced with her helmet to ensure that his attempts to save her were succesful.<br/><br/>She watched, helpless as Xandar was destroyed and the kree ship left. As the World-mind ceased to be, her helmet became operational again allowing her access to the Nova-force once more. Though it was too little, too late.<br/><br/>She had failed, everyone she had ever cared about was dead. The corps, was dead.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><br/>Mexxa possesses some of the Nova-Force which grants her these abilities. Her power is able to increase however if she is imbued with more of the Nova-Force. This is her current power-rating which is more akin to that of Sam Alexander than that of Richard Rider. Depending on how the plot develops and what is going on she does have the capability to become Nova Prime and more similar to Richard Rider. Though I'd rather keep her below that level.<br/><br/>While the additional strength, reflexes and survival skills remain with the helmet off all the other abilities require to have her helmet on. Though thanks to her needing little to no sleep, and no real sustenance she rarely takes it off.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Strength: She has increased strength, currently able to lift 20 tonnes.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Speed: Primarily through flight she is able to travel upto hundreds of miles per hour. <br/>                    Running has more restrictions however, thanks too physics.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Endurance: She can exert herself for longer without fatigue, obviously the more she does the faster<br/>                        it happens however merely moving fast it takes her at least 12 hours before the toxins<br/>                        start to impair her.<br/><br/>- Accuracy: With the Worldminds help(Currently out of order) she can calculate shots with deadly accuracy.<br/> <br/>- Reflexes: Her reflexes, while they have nothing on Spider-sense are greatly improved, slightly above that off<br/>            the most skilled fighter pilots.<br/><br/>- Healing Factor: She has a slight healing factor, though only on par with Spider-man nothing too amazing.<br/><br/>- Flight: The Nova-Force allows her to propel herself through the air, and at Faster than Light speeds out of <br/>          atmosphere which allows her to patrol space freely without a ship.<br/><br/>- Energy Blasts: Similar to focusing the Nova-Force to allow her to fly she can also form it to make energy<br/>                 blasts and fire them at enemies. <br/><br/>- Cosmic Awareness: Her helmet can relay information on the affairs of the galaxy through a set of relays,<br/>                    however the network has suffered damage with the loss of Xandar.<br/><br/>- Universal Translator: The Helmet has an inbuilt translator so she can understand what other species are<br/>                        saying.<br/><br/>- Survival: Thanks to the Nova-Force she can survive with little to no air, and with little to eat or drink.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Story Arcs:</span> <br/><br/>- Xandar Lost: Her home, her people. Way of life lost, how will she react?<br/>- The Hunt: Galen-Kor destroyed Xandar, the Hivemind and the Nova-Corps. Though nobody knows this, will Mexxa<br/>            be able to discover his identity and bring him to justice?<br/>- Worldmind gone: The Worldmind is what helps her analyze situations in battle, plan tactics and keep her sane <br/>                  in using the Nova-Force. While it is unlikely that the amount she has access too could drive <br/>                  her insane, what happens when there is a resurgence? <br/>- Guardians: Will the Guardians stand for the loss of Xandar? Will she work with them or go on a rampage?<br/>- SuperNova: With a resurgence of the Nova-Force the World-mind re-activates, will she heed it's guidance?<br/>- Nova Prime: Leader of the Nova Corps. Will it become what it once was?<br/>- Xandar Rebuilt: When the Hive-mind recreates Xandar and everyone on it, will it be the same? Will she be able to go home? To her family?<br/>- Thanos: This is a late game one, but how will she react to the mad Titan? <br/>- The Collector: Everyone knows the Collector... right? He lives in Knowhere, collects all kind of artifacts?<br/>                 No, there is another.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Post:</span><br/><br/>She didn't know what she expected to find. The World-Mind was dormant, if not dead. The surface of the planet was barren and covered in ash. Cracked and burning. She could feel the smoke tickling the back of her throat despite the best efforts of her helmet. That in itself made her lose a tear. She didn't deserve this helmet, this power. Not anymore. She had failed everyone. She fell to her knees where her home had once been, her father. Probably oblivious to what had been going on, the kree striking so fast had likely been here.<br/><br/>He would have been so proud as she became a centurion, waiting with pride for her to come home. Boasting to whoever would still listen to the stories about his daughter, the great Centurion! Who went off to distant worlds and fought the evil and the corrupt. Could take command of any starship in the fleet, and had amazing power. That he, and they wouldn't know.<br/><br/>Now they really wouldn't, nothing could bring back Xandar. It was gone, and so were her people. All that was left was her. <span class=""bb-i"">""There's more to being a Nova than just flying around and wielding power Mexxa, even I know that. It's about helping people, fighting the good fight. Enlightening them, teaching them. There's great power and an even greater responsibility. Never lose faith, your heart will keep you true. As in it, there is nothing but good.""</span><br/><br/>She began to cry a constant stream off tears, falling into the dust. The chemicals in the air causing the tears to burn, but she didn't stop. She let them flow, her father was right. She couldn't wallow in self pity, she was a Nova.

Ever since she was a little girl growing up on Xandar. They were the pinnacle off what a Xandarian could achieve. They protected two galaxies against threats, helping people all over the galaxy and getting to explore previously unexplored space. What more could she want? What more could someone achieve? For her there was nothing else. Her father, a merchant inspired this in him. Brought her up on stories of the Nova-Corps. It had been his dream too become a Nova, until an accident aboard a starship damaged his brain making him prone to seizures and incapable of handling the immensity of the Nova-Force.<br/><br/>She made it into the Star-Academy at eighteen, worked her way through. Pushing herself, constantly. At the expense of any real social life, upon graduating she was accepted into the Nova-Corps as a corpsman! The moment she put on that helmet, felt the Nova-Force flow through her. She knew she had made it. This was her duty, this was where she belonged to be. This was her life, she even met someone just like her. Garthan Saal. The two moved through the ranks together, often working on missions together and forming a relationship that would later prove to be the end off Garthan Saal however while it lasted, it was perfect.<br/><br/>They travelled the stars, helped people. Saved lives, never letting the relationship between them jeopardize the mission (Which is why it wasn't frowned upon or stomped out of existence). They were committed to each other but first and foremost to the Corps. It was the proudest moment of her life, her fathers life and Garthan Saals life when everything went wrong. <br/><br/>Tensions between Xandar and the Kree Empire were at an all time high, despite a temporarily truce the war lord known as Ronan continued to push against worlds in connection to Xandar or colonized by Xandarians. He continued to push on towards Xandar despite going against several Novas, and in the end it was rumoured that he had found a weapon of untold power upon Morag. On the day she was made a centurion, Xandar fell.<br/><br/>His ship arriving in orbit, Nova Prime went up to face him with the full power of the Hive mind and Nova-Force, ten of his best warriors and yet whatever weapon Ronan possessed it truly was formidable. His ship approaching the planet, Garthan Saan accessed the World-Mind and was granted permission to become Nova Prime. Though before he went to fight Ronan he created a gravitational field and cast Mexxa off the planet, the World-mind recognizing that Garthan Saal would not commit himself to fight Ronan until Mexxa was out of the way interfaced with her helmet to ensure that his attempts to save her were succesful.<br/><br/>She watched, helpless as Xandar was destroyed and Ronan left. As the World-mind ceased to be, her helmet became operational again allowing her access to the Nova-force once more. Though it was too little, too late.<br/><br/>She had failed, everyone she had ever cared about was dead. The corps, was dead.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><br/>Mexxa possesses some of the Nova-Force which grants her these abilities. Her power is able to increase however if she is imbued with more of the Nova-Force. This is her current power-rating which is more akin to that of Sam Alexander than that of Richard Rider. Depending on how the plot develops and what is going on she does have the capability to become Nova Prime and more similar to Richard Rider. Though I'd rather keep her below that level.<br/><br/>While the additional strength, reflexes and survival skills remain with the helmet off all the other abilities require to have her helmet on. Though thanks to her needing little to no sleep, and no real sustenance she rarely takes it off.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Strength: She has increased strength, currently able to lift 20 tonnes.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Speed: Primarily through flight she is able to travel upto hundreds of miles per hour. <br/>                    Running has more restrictions however, thanks too physics.<br/><br/>- Superhuman Endurance: She can exert herself for longer without fatigue, obviously the more she does the faster<br/>                        it happens however merely moving fast it takes her at least 12 hours before the toxins<br/>                        start to impair her.<br/><br/>- Accuracy: With the Worldminds help(Currently out of order) she can calculate shots with deadly accuracy.<br/> <br/>- Reflexes: Her reflexes, while they have nothing on Spider-sense are greatly improved, slightly above that off<br/>            the most skilled fighter pilots.<br/><br/>- Healing Factor: She has a slight healing factor, though only on par with Spider-man nothing too amazing.<br/><br/>- Flight: The Nova-Force allows her to propel herself through the air, and at Faster than Light speeds out of <br/>          atmosphere which allows her to patrol space freely without a ship.<br/><br/>- Energy Blasts: Similar to focusing the Nova-Force to allow her to fly she can also form it to make energy<br/>                 blasts and fire them at enemies. <br/><br/>- Cosmic Awareness: Her helmet can relay information on the affairs of the galaxy through a set of relays,<br/>                    however the network has suffered damage with the loss of Xandar.<br/><br/>- Universal Translator: The Helmet has an inbuilt translator so she can understand what other species are<br/>                        saying.<br/><br/>- Survival: Thanks to the Nova-Force she can survive with little to no air, and with little to eat or drink.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Story Arcs:</span> <br/><br/>- Xandar Lost: Her home, her people. Way of life lost, how will she react?<br/>- Worldmind gone: The Worldmind is what helps her analyze situations in battle, plan tactics and keep her sane <br/>                  in using the Nova-Force. While it is unlikely that the amount she has access too could drive <br/>                  her insane, what happens when there is a resurgence? <br/>- Guardians: Will the Guardians stand for the loss of Xandar? Will she work with them or go on a rampage?<br/>- SuperNova: With a resurgence of the Nova-Force the World-mind re-activates, will she heed it's guidance?<br/>- Nova Prime: Leader of the Nova Corps. Will it become what it once was?<br/>- Xandar Rebuilt: When the Hive-mind recreates Xandar and everyone on it, will it be the same? Will she be able to go home? To her family?<br/>- Thanos: This is a late game one, but how will she react to the mad Titan? <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">    Sample Post:</span><br/><br/>She didn't know what she expected to find. The World-Mind was dormant, if not dead. The surface of the planet was barren and covered in ash. Cracked and burning. She could feel the smoke tickling the back of her throat despite the best efforts of her helmet. That in itself made her lose a tear. She didn't deserve this helmet, this power. Not anymore. She had failed everyone. She fell to her knees where her home had once been, her father. Probably oblivious to what had been going on, Ronan striking so fast had likely been here.<br/><br/>He would have been so proud as she became a centurion, waiting with pride for her to come home. Boasting to whoever would still listen to the stories about his daughter, the great Centurion! Who went off to distant worlds and fought the evil and the corrupt. Could take command of any starship in the fleet, and had amazing power. That he, and they wouldn't know.<br/><br/>Now they really wouldn't, nothing could bring back Xandar. It was gone, and so were her people. All that was left was her. <span class=""bb-i"">""There's more to being a Nova than just flying around and wielding power Mexxa, even I know that. It's about helping people, fighting the good fight. Enlightening them, teaching them. There's great power and an even greater responsibility. Never lose faith, your heart will keep you true. As in it, there is nothing but good.""</span><br/><br/>She began to cry a constant stream off tears, falling into the dust. The chemicals in the air causing the tears to burn, but she didn't stop. She let them flow, her father was right. She couldn't wallow in self pity, she was a Nova. If she was the last one so be it, however she wasn't going to just sit around and let Ronan do something like this again.<br/><br/>No, she wouldn't let anything like this happen ever again. She would fight the good fight. For Xandar, for the Nova-Corps. <span class=""bb-i"">For her father</span>.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a></footer></blockquote></div></div><br/><br/>Finis <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a> let me know if you have any questions/problems.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/angel-vicky"">@Angel Vicky</a> That's arite.</div>"

Sometime down the line I might go into that LOL<br/><br/>For now...<br/><br/>___________________________________________________________<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">Player Name: The Kid Lantern<br/><br/>Character You Wish To Play: X-51 the Machine Man<br/><br/><img src=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/1MMava_zpsazzabdqi.png""/><br/><br/>Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Hero<br/><br/>Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): <br/><img src=""http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/logocomics/images/b/b0/Guardians_of_Knowhere_(2015)_logo.png/revision/latest?cb=20150309210137""/></div><br/><br/>Character Origin &amp; Backstory: <br/><br/>X-51 was originally designed to be a protector against alien threats as part of a US Army project. All of the other robots in the series went insane after gaining sentience, while X-51, who has been called ""the Robot with a soul"", survived. X-51 had solar powered batteries built into his exoskeleton and was raised as the human son of his creator, Dr. Abel Stack. At some point the Machine Man built his own ship to travel the stars called the Shockwave Rider. Coming into contact with the Watcher called Uatu and later the Celestials, they deemed his sentience profound and assisted him in traveling back in the direction of Earth after getting lost in the far corners of the galaxy. Coming across the wrecked Knowhere base of the Collector and a pair of his keepsakes, the telepathic and telekinetic Earth dog Cosmo, as well as Troll, together they formed the Guardians of Knowhere. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/>Machine Man's powers include super-human strength, speed, durability and endurance. His body is made of adamantium, and he has a cybernetic brain that gives him a superhuman analytical ability. He has telescopic and microscopic vision and detachable limbs which can be controlled when separated from the body. He also extends his limbs and shapes them into melee weapons at times when in combat. <br/><br/>Along with the built-in abilities for defense, Machine Man has a multitude of devices, including anti-gravity generators that allow him to fly, built into his body. He also has sensors and various radars, a chromatograph, seismometer, audiometer, transceiver and gravity wave detector. His palms contain pulse beams similar to that of Iron Man. X-51 is virtually immortal as long as his programming/consciousness is kept secure. Any damage done to his body can simply be repaired.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Origin of the Guardians: This would be the story of how X-51 came into contact with Cosmo and Troll and formed their team after Knowhere was ravaged by an unknown adversary. <br/><br/>Planet of the Symbiotes: When the Shockwave Rider crashes on an unknown planet, the Guardians are stunned to find an entire planet of symbiotes in all shapes and sizes. Some of the alien creatures were attached to the dinosaur like animals that inhabit the planet, others in the more oozing form, all deadly in their own ways. <br/><br/>the Herald[s]: Before the current herald of Galactus, Morg, can finish studying a planet and destroy it's defenses for his master, the Guardians must do everything in their power to keep the herald from finishing the job and turn Galactus towards a planet without life. But what could prepare them for a second herald called... Terrax?!?<br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>""It has been many months since I have seen home. The stars once full of so much wonder now seem so desolate and empty. After coming face to face with one of the last known Watchers in the universe, and ultimately annoying the Celestials in all of their omnipotence, there is not much that interests me. The ship is still running exceptionally well, I would expect nothing less having had help from the Celestials themselves. However, I have noticed a trail of wreckage and debris spanning across a few space sectors now..."" the Machine Man thought at the control seat of the ship.<br/><br/>""Now... <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">this</span></span> is interesting."" X-51 said out loud. <br/><br/>He was one with the ship now. His hand was no longer on a steering wheel, rather in was jacked into the controls with his hand shifting mechanically and taking control more directly. The scanners were actually longer range than what his body was capable of itself, but they showed no signs of life. After a few more moments X-51's ship finally locked onto something. A cargo transport ship, or rather what was left of it. It seemed as if it was being robbed by the hawk like humanoids in the Fraternity of Raptors. Machine Man had a run in one one of their kind trying to attack Uatu the Watcher. X-51 disconnected from the ship's controls and put the Shockwave Rider on auto-pilot. <br/><br/>As X-51 walked to the hatch in the back of his rather large ship considering he was only a single life form, his mechanical body began to shape chrome plated adamantium back thrusters and larger boot jets. Small openings in his back and calves seemed to give birth to all types of machinery as the enhancements were made. Before they were even complete, Machine Man exited his ship headed straight for the dark hawk-like Raptors. Tuning to the frequency their tech uses for communication he warned.<br/><br/>""You have fifteen seconds to back away from what's left of the cargo ship and vacate the sector and then I open fire. This is your only warning."" Machine Man stated.<br/><br/>""We claim thisss vessssel and it's cargo for the Shhhhi'ar Empire!"" said the more chrome colored Raptor.<br/><br/>""Itsss the one who killed Gyre! He mussst paaay..."" said the other of the two in a darker suit with a blue crystal in his chest.<br/><br/>It was all out mechanical humanoid war for about three or four minutes with X-51 coming out on top. After their crystals were broken and their armors damaged, the two Raptors flew away. The weaponry Machine Man had generated slipped back into the openings of his mechanical body after folding and spinning to compact itself. The robot with a soul made his way to the pilots seat of the cargo ship to find it was piloted by another machine. <br/><br/>""You deserved better my mechanical brother."" X-51 thought to himself putting his head down for a moment in respect,  ""Those Raptors are into some nasty business, and claiming allegiance to the Shi'ar? Further study required...""<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

That's not to say he didn't have some good developments in Nextwave, it was just in between the moments of Bender like idiocy.

The Magzi, the most feral tribe of trolls, had been temporarily settled in the realm of Asgard when they raided a group of travelling merchants. A bloody massacre followed, with the trolls tearing down their prey with ease. One life however was spared. The tribe’s chief, H’roth, took one of the merchants, a young woman prisoner. She would have been happier to have been killed in the attack, due to H’roth deciding to make her one of his many “wives”. Nine months later, the woman gave birth to a child. H’roth’s daughter. Unfortunately the woman died shortly after giving birth.<br/> <br/>The child, despite her Asgardian looks, was raised by the Magzi due to her heritage. Over the years, the girl grew into a feral beast, clothing herself in the skin of a dead troll and using nothing but her teeth and strength to hunt with the rest of her tribe, feasting on  the carcass anything they caught; animal or Asgardian. <br/> <br/>She, along with numerous other Magzi Trolls, were soon apprehended by the mighty Odinson, who after discovering that she was part Asgardian, brought her back to the city of Asgard. Here, the Asgardian’s gave her the name Gunna, after her mother. They also tried to introduce her to Asgardian culture, as well as somehow wipe the teachings of the Magzi from her mind. They were met with little success, with Gunna, nicknamed Troll by the guards, attacking any who came near her. While the Odinson and the rest of the Asgardians refused to give up, she began to receive fewer tutoring sessions, as well as being kept in the Asgard dungeon.<br/> <br/>On the dawn of Ragnarok, several inmates of the dungeon who had heard or sensed the coming end, architected a grand breakout of the facility. Gunna, was led by a mixed group of rogue Asgardians and Dark Elves out of the dungeon, with the group passing through the armoury on their way. Here, they sought to retrieve their equipment, as well any additional weapons they could use for their escape. During this time, Gunna began to inquisitively explore the armoury, with her soon discovering Jarnbjorn, the Odinson’s former weapon. Drawn to the power of the battle axe, Gunna claimed it as her own, before continuing with her escape with the group, with them travelling through a hidden portal in the Asgardian mountains.<br/> <br/>Strangely, Gunna was later discovered by a group of Ravagers on a distant planet, located near Knowhere, the ancient severed head of a Celestial, as well as the home of the Collector’s infamous museum. The Ravagers, finding Gunna sleeping among the eaten bodies of her fellow escapees, decided to capture her, selling her into the Collector’s collection on Knowhere. Here she encountered the Collector himself, as well as another one of his keepsakes; a dog from the planet Earth named Cosmo. During their times in the museum, Cosmo began to communicate with a reluctant Gunna through the use of telepathy, an ability the animal gained after experimentation from the Collector. Gunna soon went through similar experimentations herself, with her receiving a Translation Implant. <br/> <br/>During her time among the Collector’s collection, Gunna soon began to warm to Cosmo and the way he spoke to her in her head. She became more calm, as well as her learning to see the animal as more than simple prey. <br/> <br/>That was when the Kree attacked, practically destroying Knowhere and the Collector’s museum. Luckily, Cosmo and Gunna were some of the few survivors of the attack, with the two managing to get free from their holding cells. They managed to find refuge in a secure sector of the Knowhere station, where they watched their former prison, the Collector’s museum, burn to the ground. Using his telepathic abilities, Cosmo accessed the mind of their attackers, with him learning that this attack had merely been a means for them to retrieve a powerful weapon. A weapon which they planned to use to attack the planet Xandar!<br/> <br/>Cosmo, along with Gunna who wanted to remain with her new fuzzy friend, decided that it was up to them to stop them. Forming the Guardians of Knowhere after the arrival of X-51, a spectacular machine man from the planet Earth, the three ventured in X-51’s ship, The Shockwave Rider, to Xandar, with the heroes seeking to stop the carnage.</div></div></div></div> <br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers &amp; Abilities</span></div> <div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Due to being an Asgardian and Troll hybrid, Gunna possesses a mixture of all of the various superhuman abilities of each species, including superhuman strength, speed, stamina and durability. She also has an extended longevity, although due to her troll heritage, this isn’t to the extent of most Asgardians. From her troll physiology, Gunna possesses superhuman senses, in the form of both heightened smell and hearing, as nearly perfect vision due to trolls mostly living underground. <br/><br/>Due to the differences in her superhuman durability to that of her former Magzi Troll brethren, Gunna wears the skin of a former Magzi Troll for extra protection, with the fur-like armour being resistant to even some of the most advanced weaponry. After being captured by the collector, Gunna had a Translator Implant inserted into her neck, which allows her to understand and communicate using many of the languages of almost every known species in the universe.<br/><br/>Gunna also now wields <a href=""http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Jarnbjorn"" rel=""nofollow"">Jarnbjorn</a>, a battle axe forged by Dwarves that Thor wielded long before Mjolnir.

It’s time for wakink up now Gunna…</span><br/><br/>Gunna Sijurvald did as she was instructed, her right eye opening slowly. Her eyes adapted to the darkness quickly, the room falling into shape in a matter of milliseconds. Room wasn’t really a grand enough word to use to describe where the young troll girl found herself. Ahead of her, through the illuminated darkness, was an enormous cathedral like hall, filled to the brim with the strangest collection of items she had ever seen. The walls seemed to be line with transparent containers of all sorts of sizes, each containing something different from exotic looking fauna, to monstrous beasts and monsters. Gunna bared her teeth and growled loudly at the sight of such creatures, only to be dumbfounded when none of them seemed to react. He barked once more, slamming her first angrily against the glass in front of her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I don’t think they hear you…</span><br/><br/>Gunna reeled around at the comment, intent to see where it had come from. It took her a few seconds to wonder as to why she had been unable to hear which direction the sound had come from, before she realized that the voice had been all in her head. Panicking, the girl launched herself around her container, gripping her head madly. Was she going crazy?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">You are not goink crazy Gunna... </span><br/><br/>The return of the voice, whose accent confused Gunna greatly, didn’t help one bit. She continued her panicking for several moments, launching herself about, before sinking to the floor of her container in a feat of acceptance. The glass place had made her crazy. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No crazy. Is me. Cosmo…</span><br/><br/>That was when Gunna spotted it. It was sat a few metres ahead of her in its own container, watching. The animal seemed to be wearing a set of strange, white garments, fitted with what appeared to be a bright red collar. It was the face that excited Gunna the most however. She knew at once from the long snout and floppy ears what it was. Food.<br/><br/>“KILL!” The Asgardian shouted as she leapt to her feet eagerly once more, diving forward towards the animal. It would seem that she had forgotten about the transparent walls of her own little pod, as she hadn’t even left the ground for even a second when she collided with the glass. She fell as quickly as she had risen, landing in a heap on the floor. <br/><br/>In seconds she had readjusted herself and was back on her feet, hands against the glass and staring hungrily at the beast. The animal in question had barely moved, except to tilt its head and wag its shaggy tail.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Not prey. I is Cosmo…</span><br/><br/>“Cosmo food!” Came Gunna’s gruff reply, as she licked her lips greedily. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Cosmo no food.

For most of his childhood a degree of his parents past seemed shaded in ambiguity. This was due to the fact of Henry Pym (Sr.) and Janet Van Dyne’s former work with the federal agency known as SHIELD, a secret that the two tried to keep buried throughout their children’s youth. As it is known, Henry Pym founded <font color=""#aba000"">Pym Technologies</font> whilst he also invested in his wife’s start-up company called <font color=""#aba000"">Yellowjacket</font> — a fashion design firm that due to Janet’s expertise in business and enterprise led to a successful venture that became one of the most relevant fashion &amp; design firms in New York City.<br/><br/>After a brief attendance at Empire University Hank found himself bored and feeling anxious at home. His father and mother had recently separated due to an altercation between them that led to additional stress at the Pym Estate. Whilst his sister fell into academia as a full-on exile Hank seemed to approach his stressful feelings in the opposite direction as he began to get into a string of debates that turned into messy arguments with his father. After several of these arguments and the issues that followed Hank decided he was done with New York and took a flight to Europe for an extended period of time. In the period that followed he began wandering as a sort of wayward soul as he traveled through Symkaria, Transia, Sokovia, Slokovia, Lichtenbad, Latveria, and other countries as he tried to not only get away from the expectations of his family and his peers but also to gather his thoughts— to become something closer to himself and not “Henry Pym II”. However, years later in 2011 Hank returned when Hope, the only one he kept in contact with, reached out to him telling Hank that he had to come home immediately—something had happened.<br/><br/>Henry Pym, Hank’s father had been hospitalized. Annoyed at however this could’ve happened, whatever bridges he thought were broken between him and his father seemed to reconstruct overnight as he took flight from Paris to New York. His father’s condition brought the fractured family together in a weird fit of irony – something that Hank would reflect on much later. Following clues left by his father, he discovered the culprit of his father’s condition being Pym Technologies co-founder, <font color=""#aba000"">Elias Weams</font>, who was on the brink of discovering “Weams Particles” and continuing a project that Pym wanted buried due to the dangers of not only development of the technologies but also the military consequences that were bound to follow-- Pym refused to allow his company to go the way of Stark or Osborn. Knowing Pym was in his way Weams hired an individual to take care of him named <font color=""#aba000"">Hargood Wickham</font>. After discovering his father’s “Ant Man” suit, his journal, and connecting the plot to Wickham and Weams he proceeded with stopping Weams’ intentions by donning the Ant-Man suit and infiltrating the facility to sabotage the fruits of Weams’ labor. This would end with a battle (after dispatching Wickham) between Hank and Weams’ – but not before Weams donned the “<font color=""#aba000"">Gigantus</font>” suit himself driving him insane in the process. When Weams was defeated he found himself at the center spotlight to the world and the vigilante career for Hank had begun.<br/><br/>It seemed like the Pym family was back on track with the recovery of Henry Pym and his rekindling of his relationship with Janet, Hope’s extreme success at taking control of Pym Technologies in the aftermath of Elias Weams betrayal and attempted murder of her father, and Hank’s own passion for helping others through the identity of Ant-Man— things were settling back in. Deciding to stay out of Pym Technologies Hank looked to focusing full-time on helping others and looking into the history of the AST-62 suit through discussions with his father. As 2011 came to a close he found himself stopping many threats unaware that there was one just looming on the horizon…<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#787878""><span class=""bb-b"">Genius Level Intelligence</span></font> – Henry has inherited the intellectual capacity and capability of both of his parents and despite not using it as often as he should still shows that he is an extremely smart as well as creative individual who thinks consistently out of the box and on his feet.

The AST-62 (although heavily modified) is a state of the art technological exo-suit developed by Henry Pym Sr. to exploit the utility of Pym Particles for a variety of uses. The suit was ideal for covert operations during the Cold War especially due to its ability to shrink or expand the wearer in size by several magnifications, enhancing the wearer’s speed &amp; strength, and also using a cybernetic helmet with low frequency psionic emitters could grant communication and partial control of insects.</li><li><font color=""#787878""><span class=""bb-b"">Hand-to-Hand Combat</span></font> – Starting with self-defense classes in the twins childhood, Henry was introduced to judo and karate classes which he kept up decently into his teenage years which is when he “got bored” of the instruction during his rebellious phase.

Maria’s brows narrowed and her cheeks rose in agitation as she slammed her foot down in Hank’s apartment in New York City trying to stop his childish outburst. The apartment was not particularly lavish and it was only accented by her frustration of how her supposed boyfriend was keeping his apartment; open containers of sugar on the <span class=""bb-i"">floor</span>, a broken sink that he still hadn’t gotten to, and various other issues that just pointed to the man’s lack of giving a shit entirely.<br/><br/><font color=""#c24641"">“...I’m sorry,”</font> Hank let out an exhausted chuckle.<br/><br/><font color=""#6d7b8d""><span class=""bb-b"">“Augh!

The twenty-four year old knew that his girlfriend was going to be pissed with him and probably for more than a standard business week. He shook his head, that was the kind of shit that got him in trouble with his sister when they were younger-- one stupid joke led to one swift punch and Hope knew how to throw punches. His girlfriend however was less of the hitting type to tell him he was an idiot and more of the ‘I’m going to leave and not talk to you for a week because I think you laughed at me and thus belittled my entire existence’ type. Honestly after this relationship he found his sister so much more endearing. Definitely preferred the punching.<br/><br/>He took another breath as he turned to his kitchen as he tapped a small watch on his wrist. <font color=""#c24641"">“You can come out now, she’s gone.”</font> He muttered as a small group of ants emerged from their hiding places.<br/><br/>Well, his girlfriend was kind of right about the whole ants thing.

Knowing Pym was in his way Weams hired an individual to take care of him named <font color=""#aba000"">Hargood Wickham</font>. After discovering his father’s “Ant Man” suit, his journal, and connecting the plot to Wickham and Weams he proceeded with stopping Weams’ intentions by donning the Ant-Man suit and infiltrating the facility to sabotage the fruits of Weams’ labor. This would end with a battle (after dispatching Wickham) between Hank and Weams’ – but not before Weams donned the “<font color=""#aba000"">Gigantus</font>” suit himself driving him insane in the process. When Weams was defeated he found himself at the center spotlight to the world and the vigilante career for Hank had begun.<br/><br/>It seemed like the Pym family was back on track with the recovery of Henry Pym and his rekindling of his relationship with Janet, Hope’s extreme success at taking control of Pym Technologies in the aftermath of Elias Weams betrayal and attempted murder of her father, and Hank’s own passion for helping others through the identity of Ant-Man— things were settling back in. Deciding to stay out of Pym Technologies Hank looked to focusing full-time on helping others and looking into the history of the AST-62 suit through discussions with his father. As 2011 came to a close he found himself stopping many threats unaware that there was one just looming on the horizon…<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#787878""><span class=""bb-b"">Genius Level Intelligence</span></font> – Henry has inherited the intellectual capacity and capability of both of his parents and despite not using it as often as he should still shows that he is an extremely smart as well as creative individual who thinks consistently out of the box and on his feet.

Doom will be time travelling to the future at some point in the next couple of weeks. What does this mean?<br/><br/>Well I'm thinking about setting up a separate thread and running Future Imperfect. For those that do not know what it is basically Hulk goes all smart and evil, takes over the world. Most people live within one city which is quite nice, a bit roman-esque but over all can't complain. There are other settlements but the worlds quite a hostile place so most of the other communities are mutant based.<br/><br/>The idea of doing this is that anyone can port your characters overt to either be minions of Maestro (Which is what Hulk calls himself in this timeline) or be members of a resistance movement trying to dethrone him (Which isn't easy considering he's killed off pretty much every major hero). Why do I want to do this?<br/><br/>I think it'll be a lot of fun. AS we'll be able to play our characters in new and interesting ways obviously as this is the future we can either play Legacy Characters if our regular characters can't live several decades or find interesting ways for them to still be alive. (I think the people who have this easiest are <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/facepunch"">@Facepunch</a> with Wolverine, <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/spud"">@Spud</a> with SThor, <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/natty"">@Natty</a> with Troll or Iceman(Apparently), <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/bright_ops"">@Bright_Ops</a> with Loki and <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/angel-vicky"">@Angel Vicky</a> with Valkyrie. In terms of Legacy I'm meaning like, at one point, Spider-man 2099 ends up in this future). <br/><br/>It's just an idea, gives us something interesting to do in regards to these characters without worrying about affecting the main continuity, if enough people want to join without going Legacy or aren't Immortal and we can't find a way for you to survive as long we could always say that somehow Doom got transported to an alternate reality.</div>"

He was a prince in the royal family, destined to rule Tok from the throne of his father, Ter-Ran, and his mother, Reas-Ran. Tok was widely known as a hub of crime and villainy throughout the galaxy; indeed, the royal family profited greatly from pirates and the black market. Zhib-Ran was raised from a young age to appreciate the system set up on Tok by the Ran family. His father, the king, made sure that his son understood that allowing crime (to a degree) was to the benefit of the family; and by extension, the entire planet. Zhib-Ran quickly learned that to cross his parents was to commit suicide. Only those truly loyal to the crown prospered under their tyrannical and hard regime. Anarchy reigned among the poor and destitute. The king and queen had no time for the weak, and cast them aside as lambs to the slaughter. After all, they weren't a threat. The royal family possessed powers beyond any of the citizens' imaginations. They could move entire worlds with their bare hands. They could hear a pen drop on the other side of Tok. They could level entire cities with a mere glance. What were these people but insects to them?<br/><br/>These people might have been insects, but they were angry insects. When Ter-Ran and his wife Reas-Ran came to power, those same insects became angry. The royal family had shaken the bee hive. They'd unleashed a monster they could never predicate, and never understand.<br/><br/>Hyperion was privately tutored by his grand parents until he became an adult. They drilled within the boy the same ideals that their children had: tyranny, greed, power. Zhib-Ran learned how to fight from General Cog-Yuung, from the neighboring city of Laav-Yuung. General Cog, like the rest of the nobility, possessed powers similar to the royal family; yet they were distinctly weaker. The royal family had decided that all newborn nobles would have their solar absorption powers weakened, so that, in turn, the nobles would never be able to singlehandedly overthrow the king. The same greed that corrupted the crown soon corrupted the nobility. Men like General Cog-Yuung looked to the populace and saw that unrest was growing. Such crimes as murder, rape and genocide were a common occurrence in all cities sans the capital. These crimes happened in the very streets; the police did nothing but grow fat on the money given to them by their king and queen. Something had to change.<br/><br/>So one man brought about that change.<br/><br/>His name was Lex-Vani. A bonafide genius, born amid the scum of Tok who was able to drag himself up out of the filth and into the nobility. He became rich. Famous. Trusted. No one expected that on young Zhib's eighteenth birthday that Lex-Vani would kill both Reas-Ran and her husband, Ter. Lex had strapped a powerful bomb filled with a very specific type of radiation to the bottom of the queen and king's bed, and at the peak of night detonated the weapon. He struck the crime bosses in their sleep, while they were at their weakest. Lex had attempted to do the same to their son, however the boy had not been home. Rather, Zhib-Ran had been rescued early that morning by General Cog. Cog wanted to make Zhib his adopted son, and turn Zhib into a weapon.<br/><br/>Hyperion saw through the general's lies. The two fought until the break of dawn the next day, and Zhib was able to use that extra bit of sun light to burn a hole into the general's very brain. With General Cog dead, Hyperion set out to subdue the riots that were occurring all across planet Tok. He travelled across the entire planet, cleansing entire cities worth of rioters with little effort. For nearly a week, Zhib-Ran made war with the rebels. Their numbers were problematic; Zhib was but a single man, and the rioters numbered more than a billion. Hyperion spent his nights next to the sun to avoid assassination attempts, and his days plowing through armies in an attempt to quell the rebellion. The war came to a head when Lex-Vani created a bomb designed to destroy the entire universe; the weapon was meant as a sort of last resort against Hyperion's rampage. A mad attempt by an even madder man to win this war.<br/><br/>Hyperion broke into Lex's facility, and came face to face with the genius who tore apart all of Tok. Lex-Vani bore powered armor, designed for the explicit purpose of killing Zhib-Ran. Lex and Zhib fought; Hyperion's ruthlessness won him the battle. Moments before Hyperion was able to dismantle the universal bomb, Lex, in his last act of defiance, detonated the weapon.<br/><br/>Then the universe exploded.<br/><br/>Moments before the universe eating explosion wiped Hyperion from existence, a portal opened beneath his feet and Earth-712's Superman was dragged into our reality by Kree scientists. Hyperion allowed the Kree to examine him for nearly two years. The entire time, Zhib-Ran was studying Kree culture and technology. He learned everything he needed to know about the galaxy. He learned of Earth, of the Skrulls...And he learned of Knowhere. A paradise for crime. A place like Tok.<br/><br/>So Hyperion escaped the Kree homeworld. He stole a translator and flew out of the atmosphere and into space, easily defeating any Kree military who tried to get in his way. Hyperion made a beeline for Knowhere, determined to rebuild his empire.<br/><br/>For Hyperion was King.<br/><br/>On his way to Knowhere, Hyperion came in contact with earth. He met with SHIELD and established a working relationship with them as he studied earth and its people. Zhib-Ran soon grew fond of the humans and their way of life. Eventually Hyperion promised to work with SHIELD, and eventually the Avengers, hiding his true past and purpose from them until the opportune moment presented itself. But soon, Hyperion would be reminded of why his parents hated the common people. Why they were inferior, while Hyperion was superior.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS:</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name="" Skills and Abilities"" type=""button""> Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Super Strength (Enough to match Earth's powerhouses like Thor and Hulk)<br/><br/>Super Speed (FTL in space, many times faster than any jet while planetside)<br/><br/>Night-Invincibility (Survived the destruction of his universe)<br/><br/>Flight (In space and in the atmosphere)<br/><br/>Flash-Vision (heat/laser vision)<br/><br/>Super Senses (Can see things at the subatomic level, hear things across the planet, and has X-Ray vision)<br/><br/>Solar Absorption (Gains powers from all forms of sunlight) <br/><br/>Leadership (Was once a king of an entire planet)<br/><br/>Martial Arts (Taught by the royal guard how to use his powers in a fist fight)<br/><br/>Durable uniform (High stress clothing keep Hyperion from constantly needing new uniforms)</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Avenger of Earth:</span> Zhib-Ran arrives on earth and begins working with SHIELD to help them make the earth a safer place.

The locals called the structure the ""Daily Bugle."" Apparently it was a facility built for the express purpose of delivering biased journalism to the drooling masses of New York. Mark brought one such piece of propaganda up to where he could look at it: a newspaper, the humans called it. Covered in pictures and writing. Why did this ""Bugle"" continue to use such an outdated form of communication to deliver its message to the people of New York City. Even here, on the primitive planet called earth, they had more efficient means of transferring information from one location to multiple locations. A network of computers devised many years ago that allowed the public access to the 'information superhighway.' Despite the existence of this system, the Daily Bugle and a number of other outlets insisted on having their opinions transported by hand. It baffled Zhib-Ran, who's own world used a sort of 'internet' to spread news. Everyone carried a device that could be wirelessly accessed at any time by those allowed to present information to the entire planet. <br/><br/>That was another thing this planet, and more specifically the western portion of it, lacked: censorship. Why allow men like this J. Jonah Jameson to spew lies about important public figures like the Spider-Man? The Spider-Man is a hero. He serves as an icon to the people of New York City; the denizens look up to him as their savior. Well, they should, anyway. From what Zhib-Ran had seen, not everyone appreciated the wall-crawler's presence in the big apple. That fact can be attributed to the mud slinging of Jameson more than likely.<br/><br/>""Hmph."" Hyperion puffed as he observed the front page. A picture of Spider-Man slinging through New York's skyline. <span class=""bb-i"">Odd,</span> Zhib-Ran thought. <span class=""bb-i"">How did they manage to get a shot from this angle?</span> The photographer must have been standing on the ledge of a massive structure to get a shot from that high up. How could he have known the Spider was swinging by at that exact moment, to take a picture without blur? How very odd. Zhib-Ran began to read the article on the front page. It was an opinion piece written by multiple authors. The article raised an interesting question: Should superheroes be allowed to work within the city without regulation by the government? <span class=""bb-i"">Of course not.</span> Hyperion answered within his own mind.<span class=""bb-i""> You can't trust an ordinary citizen to do the work of the police.</span> But law enforcement on earth was not equipped to deal with the threats that required the attention of superheroes. Hyperion went on to read the rest of the article on page eleven. The Daily Bugle offered a simple solution: SHIELD. They wanted people to look at SHIELD and see how well their system worked, and how it could be applied to law enforcement at large within the United States of America. Vigilantes are brought in, trained, and given badges before they're sent off to work for the city. They would get a paycheck, benefits, the whole package. What's not to love?<br/><br/>The article failed to mention, and Hyperion failed to realize, the shortcomings of such a plan. For Zhib-Ran hadn't the time to mull over the positives and negatives, because Captain America needed his assistance.<br/><br/>""Agent Milton."" A voice suddenly spoke from Zhib's watch.<br/><br/>Hyperion raised the device closer to his face and pressed a button on the side. ""This is Milton. Go ahead."" Zhib-Ran was still getting used to calling himself ""Agent Mark Milton"" instead of Zhib-Ran or Hyperion. Why the humans wished for his identity to remain a mystery, Zhib did not know. But he had chosen to work with SHIELD until the day when he no longer needed them. For Hyperion's plans to come into fruition, he needed SHIELD's full trust. So, for now, Hyperion would do as they told. No questions asked.<br/><br/>""Captain America has activated his distress beacon and requested your assistance. He's currently in the Savage Lands, Antarctica- you should be able to find him without too much trouble.""<br/><br/>""Of course. I'll be right there.""<br/><br/>Hyperion switched the device off and set his newspaper down. He quickly removed his grey suit jacket and carefully folded it up, setting that down as well. Zhib removed a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on before straightening his tie and jumping to his feet. A quick rolling up of his sleeves, and Hyperion was ready for work.<br/><br/>Then he jumped.<br/><br/>Zhib-Ran fell from the roof of the Daily Bugle towards the busy streets below. People looked up and pointed; he could hear screams and calls for help as he rapidly descended towards the asphalt. Time itself seemed to distort as Hyperion activated his powers. Everything slowed down to a crawl. Zhib glanced around with his enhanced vision at the faces of the people below. A moment later, after he had finished enjoying the fresh air, Hyperion began to fly. He suddenly shot forward at speeds approaching light, flying above the New York skyline. He was careful not to get too close to any buildings; his powers allowed him to keep air disruption to a minimum, however there was still the chance that Zhib-Ran could shatter the windows with the amount of air he was kicking behind him at the speed he was going. If Hyperion wasn't able to regulate air flow around him, he imagined flying at light speed would be equivalent to setting off a nuclear bomb in the middle of the city.<br/><br/>Good thing that wasn't a probably for him, isn't it?<br/><br/>It took less than a second for Hyperion to reach the research facility. However, for the extra-dimensional alien, it felt like quite a bit longer. He had to fly up into space and use his telescopic vision combined with his X-ray vision to locate Sam Wilson. Then he had to fly down to Antarctica and traverse the Savage Land without crashing. It felt like an eternity. If Zhib wasn't so experienced with his powers he would have wondered if he reached Sam in time to save him. But he was experienced, so that wasn't an issue either.<br/><br/>Hyperion smashed through the metal and concrete that made up the facilities walls. Debris froze in mid air as Zhib took the time to examine in the situation. The room was filled with what appeared to be dinosaurs in strange glass cases. Cap was looking at one such dinosaur. The good captain appeared to have locked eyes with the creature. Hyperion turned to see a group of AIM agents approaching from another door, all of them armed with state of the art laser weaponry. They wouldn't affect Hyperion; he'd feel them, but it'd probably just tickle. Time sped back up to normal as Hyperion slowed to a stop. The AIM agents entered the room and pointed their weapons at the intruders. However, Cap didn't move. His eyes were stuck on the dinosaur. That was when Hyperion realized that the strange earth creature in the tube must have had the captain under some sort of mind control.<br/><br/>He had to act fast. Hyperion flew forward, right at the pterodactyl. He tackled the beast out of its tube and dragged the flying monster through a nearby wall. And then another wall. And another. Once they were outside, Hyperion let go of Sauron and allowed the monster to get up. The naive ""hero"" believed it was just some misunderstood lizard, and believed it would fly away after that. ""Go on."" Hyperion urged. ""Get outta here.""<br/><br/>Hopefully Cap could deal with the AIM guys on his own, because the dinosaur didn't seem very willing to leave.</div>"

That was until the day of his 13th birthday when he noticed something growing out of his back. One year later he had fully functioning wings, and despite his father's protests he used them to fly. Upon learning of other mutants and the Xavier School, Warren checked the place out for himself and even enrolled. However after about a month or two his anxiety to do something more kicked into gear and he headed out on his own. He had dreams of becoming a costumed adventurer but kept his head down and his wings tucked into his overcoat for the next few years while moving up in his father's company and attending college. After buying up as many shares in the company as possible, Warren took great pride in taking control of the company once he had over half the company in his back pocket. In nearly the exact same way as his father took the company from Warren Worthington I no less. <br/><br/>Still going out for a nightly fly every so often, Warren heard the screams of a young woman one night who was in the process of being mugged by two grungy looking men. When Warren touched down and saved the woman from the attackers, she broke down into tears claiming God had sent one of his agents to save her. Rumors began about an Avenging Angel defending the citizens of NYC. After seeing costumed heroes in the media like Capt. America and Spiderman, Warren made a costume of his own and took to the skies more regularly as... the ARCHANGEL.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Archangel has wings granting him the ability to fly as well as enhanced physical attributes [strength, speed, endurance, durability]. There is also something in his blood that heals his wounds quicker, making him able to heal from serious injury within days and grow new wings within a few months if they're completely removed. He just heals quicker, but he doesn't have the OP'ed Wolverine/Deadpool healing factors. At some point later on I'd like to give him a flaming sword, I just don't know where he'll get it or how strong it will be. <br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Angel of the City - Just an introductory arc where he teams with another more well known hero to take down an enemy. Ideally this would be one of Marvel's big guns.<br/><br/>Sinister Revelation - I'd like to introduce Sugar Man as a scientist named Johnathan Sweet working for Worthington Labs who had a secret agenda with Archangel's father. The secret? Warren's father had Sweet trying to clone him another son but without wings. After Warren takes over the company and Sugar Man loses his funding after Warren discovers his father and Sweet's secret, it leads into the next arc...<br/><br/>Angel of Death - My version of Archangel will meet his nemesis, Sugar Man's greatest experiment, the Angel of Death [or just Death for short]. Blue skin, metal wings [cause originally he was cloned without them!], but with the look of the newer younger Angel's evil self... <span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/1/14487/4523868-angel.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">SEEN HERE</a>.</span><br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>""If only my father had experienced flying he would've seen why I snuck out so much when I was younger. The wind in my face and flowing through my hair, the taste and smell of moisture in the clouds the higher I fly... it's all just amazing..."" Warren thought as he flew in the clouds in the early morning hours of the day.<br/><br/>The sun was rising over the skyscrapers of New York City. Archangel finally saw his destination point in the Worthington Industries building about six blocks down from Williams Innovations. His muscles contracted, and his wings folded inwards as he touched down on the roof of the building. In a secret stash he found some clothes he'd put away for just this sort of thing. After dressing himself in more casual clothes he tossed on his overcoat. Most people assumed he wore one because he was rich and that's the sort of thing they wear over their expensive suits. Most people assumed Warren was just another one of those douchebags. Of course, he wore it to conceal his wings...<br/><br/>After a long and boring shareholder's meeting, Warren flipped through some monthly reports from their pharmaceutical division. A lab in New Jersey seemed to be spending quite a bit of money on materials and equipment. Nearly everything was signed by a Doctor Johnathan Sweet. <br/><br/>""I'm going to look into this a bit later, right now I need to get out and stretch my wings..."" he thought.<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

I could always just introduce Apocalypse in a somewhat similar fashion and just tweak it in areas. I thought it'd be a nice twist if Miles Warren [the Jackal infamous for cloning Spiderman] and Sinister worked together at some point, if you'd be down for that we could set something up with Warren cloning heroes for his own agenda...? <br/><br/>The idea was he didn't spend much time there, a few more weeks would work, and he could still be in the First Class he just wouldn't have been there longer than a month or two. I don't know the timeline exactly or the ages of the First Class mutants, but I saw the modern [2012] Archangel around 23 or so. The idea was he would be training in secret while moving up the food chain in his father's company. I always felt the problem with Warren in the comics was he never had a chance to truly spread his wings and fly solo and without the X-Men. He had all the right things and history in all the right places for a solo hero, but usually all he was good for was the one off lines where somebody mentioned him giving the 'School money yet again to rebuild. He's rich, he's handsome, he's got wings, his own multi-million dollar company, etc. I'm a huge DC fan and Hawkman fan, but I honestly think I could write Archangel in so many more interesting ways. <br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

I guess DC's lawyers were all away when that happened. <img src=""/smilies/hehe.gif""/>).<br/><br/>I imagined the ""1st Class"" X-Men in their mid-to-late 20's (between 24-28).  Let's assume Xavier formally began his school in 1998 and the 1st Class X-Men were first recruit between the ages 10-12 (the age in which puberty begins).  The difference between 2012 and 1998 is 14 years, which would give us an age range of 24 and 26 (we could go older if we wish by a few years).  I did have a discussion with Eru about character ages in comics and about how irrelevant they are sometimes, so keep that in mind, too.<br/><br/>Edit:  Also, on Jackal/Miles Warren, I am currently setting up a version of the Intelligencia that is headed by the Jackal.

I will check.<footer>The Rules</footer></blockquote><br/><br/>Again, I am not going to bar you from this RP for this one ""offense"".  However, before I can officially judge it, I would like to have some original writing for the background information.

At the age of two his sister Donna was born after <br/>the family had moved to the old family farm in Nebraska. From an <br/>early age Stephen suffered terrible nightmares involving demons <br/>attacking him and his family, terrible visions that showed not only <br/>his death but the death of every loved one around him. As he grew <br/>older Stephen set aside these dreams and focused on his education. <br/>Once he cast these dreams aside his brother Victor was born. At the <br/>age of eleven Donna had fallen from a tree and broke one of her legs <br/>and only a panicked Stephen was there to help. Having tended to his <br/>sisters injury he began showing great interest in the medical <br/>field, often found reading books vastly beyond his appeared age and <br/>keeping notes on what he had learned. <br/>By the time he finished high school letters from prestigious <br/>colleges came pouring in offering full scholarships and practically <br/>begging Stephen to join. In the end, Strange decided upon New York <br/>College and began his medical career as a premed. While home on <br/>break on his nineteenth birthday Donna drowned while swimming in a <br/>local pond. Her death took a major toll on Stephen and almost <br/>threatened his medical career then and there, thinking that it was <br/>his fault that he couldn't save his sister's life.

Rapid success <br/>went to his head, however, as he quickly became cold and callous <br/>believing that his involvement with his patients began and ended with <br/>his bill. After receiving several reports about his conduct towards <br/>his patients he continued to walk a thin line between employed and <br/>unemployed, the only thing that kept him safe was unbelievable <br/>talent with a scalpel. At the end of his residency his mother <br/>Beverly became ill and subsequently passed away leaving the bereaved <br/>surgeon debating weather or not to continue his work. <br/>After an incident involving some sort of metahuman attack on the <br/>U.N. office building Strange happened to save a translator by the <br/>name of Madeleine Revell. The two quickly became lovers and after a <br/>whirlwind romance the two were quickly married. The honeymoon phase <br/>quickly came to an end as Stephen's materialistic and ego fueled <br/>nature combined with never having truly dealt with his mothers death <br/>began to put a strain on the marriage. On the second anniversary of <br/>his mother's death Stephen's father became gravely ill. Unable to <br/>face the grief Strange never went to see his father on his deathbed <br/>causing great friction between the remaining family and himself. His <br/>brother Victor, outraged at his brothers seeming lack of grief for <br/>their father's death the disgruntled brother confronted Stephen. <br/>After storming out of his penthouse and straight into oncoming <br/>traffic. <br/><br/>Now essentially alone Stephen began drinking to a profuse amount <br/>before taking an extended leave of absence.

While he was able to save his hands the extensive nerve damage caused his hands to shake uncontrollably thus effectively ending his surgical career. With his pride and vanity preventing him from taking a consultation position at the hospital Strange found himself locked away in his appartment staring down the bottom of any bottle that he could get his hands on. After chasing down every cure for his hands and reaching just as many dead ends the once wealthy surgeon soon became derelict performing surgeries in back alleyways to pay off his bar-tabs. One night while trying to drink his problems away he heard a rumor about a Tibetan monk who could possibly have a cure for his hands and just like that Strange jumped on the first flight having sold the remaining of his possessions for a ticket.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""2000-Present: Back to where it all started."" type=""button"">2000-Present: Back to where it all started.

Although refusing the offer Strange could not leave due to a blizzard that rolled through during his venture there. While there he witnessed the man, known as the Ancient One's, apprentice Baron Karl Mordo send mystically summoned skeletons to attack his master. Once Strange confronted the man about his treacherous Mordo cast a spell to bind Strange to the wall in order to prevent him from warning his master. The Ancient One found him and freed him after Strange asked him to teach him the mystic arts. It was then that the Ancient One explained to him that he was aware of Strange's potential to become the next Sorcerer Supreme which is why he left a trail for Strange to follow leading him to the palace so that he could pass his knowledge one to someone worthy of becoming the protector of the Earth-realm. Over the next five years Strange trained tirelessly in the mystic arts even battling and besting Mordo on one occasion until at last he became equal to the Ancient One in power. After the Ancient One passed away he left all of his worldly assets to Strange who used the funds to travel back to New York where he settled in Greenwich Village in the mansion that he dubbed the Sanctum Santorm. After magically fortifying the mansion Strange began researching mysticism from around the globe in the hopes to gain more power, and recently became a surgical consultant under the name of Stephen Sanders trying to reintegrate himself back into human society.</div></div><br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">| Attributes |</span><br/>Strange is the foremost expert in sorcery and as such has become a guiding figure to all those who require his expertise.

However, we can work something out if you really want to play the character.  However, the biggest problem is that you blatantly copied the ""Character Origin &amp; Backstory"" directly from Marvel Wikia.  Not only is that plagiarism (yes, that's not only limited to academics), this roleplay does not necessarily follows the canon of the mainstream Marvel comics, but rather a blank slate for players to develop the characters as they see fit.  If you want to have your finished character sheet accepted, you will have to rewrite the ""Character Origin &amp; Backstory"" section all over again.<br/><br/>Edit: Also, Daily Planet is DC, not Marvel.</div>"

But I was going between Sunfire and size manipulation powers he couldn't quite control after seeing some fan art of the idea on tumblr.  It's a bit out of left field but I figured it would mean Tadashi would almost need to be recruited into the team as a means to figure out how to control his powers.  With Hiro basically begging to also join so he wouldn't lose his older brother again.  Modifying his suit for flight and controlling the nanobots on his own with better security so no one else would abuse them again.  Since I didn't imagine Tadashi would be cool with Baymax being used for combat.</div>"

Japan joined the Nazi war effort against the Allied Forces and things seemed to work in the Axis' favor. When Captain America was first introduced into the war effort and began his rampage through Europe Japan saw the need for government ran superhero team. Unfortunately there could not be an agreement before the war was won in the Allies favor. <br/><br/>The next forty years Japan began researching all manner of technology in hopes to one day become the center of a technological achievement in the world. The 80's brought about the arise of mutants, specifically the rise of the Brotherhood, and Japan could no longer stand by while the rest of the world grew stronger through meta-humans. While the offical statement is that Japan takes no stand on the growing mutant threat, covertly a group of high ranking officals and business leaders began meeting to discuss a way to create their own mutants to catastrophic ends.<br/><br/>After another thirty years and the rise of the superhero the group now calling themselves the Giri began working on ways to have their own group of heroes. When the incident at Vista Verde reached the ears of the Giri the thought of creating a super soldier like the Captain America of old soon became out of the question. After many years of searching the Japanese champion came forth in the form of the Silver Samurai. Even though his reign only lasted two years it refueled the Giri to create a team that would last several years. <br/><br/>When the first ideas of Big Hero 6 first started the Giri began looking for teenagers that could be molded into proper agents and as such the first nomination they accepted came in the form of Naicho agent Honey Lemon, soon after the mysterious cook and samurai Wasabi-No-Ginger. Using their contacts made at S.H.I.E.L.D. the Giri found an unstable mutant right for molding that took to calling himself Fredzilla and the thug Leiko Tanaka was quickly enlisted in the threat of jail time. With four member recruited and in need of two more the Giri set their sights on child prodigy Hiro Takachiho. After his initial refusal Japan bore witness to its first meta-human attack in the form of the Everwraith. The creature was a manifestation of the lives lost during the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. <br/><br/>While it first turned its attention to the United States it soon turned its sights to Japan believing the actions of its country caused the tragedy. The time had come to intervene and unleash their team, but without a full team there was no confidence that the team would be successful. As luck would have it, tragedy would befall Hiro and force him to turn to Big Hero 6 and in turn the Giri. <br/><br/>Once the Everwraith was dealt with the Giri has ordered the team to travel to the United States on a mission of good faith with S.H.I.E.L.D. and as luck would have it the Giri's liaison with the team just so happened to be Hiro's cousin and as such arrangements were made to set up a base of operations in San Francisco newly built Cool World Amusement Park. Unbeknownst to the Giri and the team a new threat is rising against them something more powerful than they had faced before.<br/> <br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">| Biographies |</font><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hiro Takachiho"" type=""button"">Hiro Takachiho [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></font> 17<br/> <br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers in Brief:</span></font> Genius Level Intellect, Proficient in science and technology focused on biology, physics, and robotics.<br/> <br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">List of Gear:</span></font> Hiro has created a plethora of robots including Baymax himself as well as a flight suit powered by a jet pack with limited firepower capabilities. On top of all of his accomplishments in the field of robotics, one of his greatest creation is his Core Cyber Network or CCN. All of his robots are connected to this network which allows him to call any of his creations to him (depending on their location). Hiro himself can tap into the network using a pair of specially designed glasses that have a cybernetic video display which gives him fast and accurate data as well as connect to other networks.<br/> <br/><font color=""#fff79a""><span class=""bb-b"">History:</span></font> <br/>Hiro Takachiho was born in 1995 to wealthy industrialists Tomeo and Maemi Takachiho. Growing up as an only child and living within the affluent suburb of Tokyo, Yoga City of Setagaya, Hiro was almost the definition of being born with a silver spoon. His intellectual prowess was almost instantly recognized and as such he was placed in pre-school at the age of two where he quickly began striving. <br/><br/>Around the age of ten Hiro was enrolled in a prestigious private school known world wide as the foremost leader in technological advances. It was here in the Tesuka Advanced Science Institute that Hiro created his first and most advanced piece of technology, a robotic synthformer that he dubbed Monster Baymax or Baymax for short for a science fair. It wasn't long after that a clandestine order of businessmen and government officials took notice of young Hiro and tagged him as a potential candidate for their first government operated superhero team. <br/><br/>Originally the preteen Hiro was not impressed with the group and as such turned them down in favor to continue a normal life. This idea was radically sent askew when a villain by the name of the Everwraith kidnapped his mother with no indication as to why. After exhausting all possible efforts himself Hiro turned to the Giri and their team dubbed Big Hero 6 for helped, he was soon cast into the leadership position. After meeting the rest of the team and making some upgrades to Baymax as well as creating his flight suit, Hiro along with Honey Lemon, Fredzilla, Wasabi-No-Ginger, and GoGo Tomago began their quest to save Hiro's mother and father. <br/><br/>While the team was unsuccessful in saving his parents, Hiro and the team was able to defeat the vengeful spirit and Hiro commited himself to the team at large. He has spent the last three years as leader of the band of misfits known as Big Hero 6, believing that no one else is capable of doing so. Now at the age of seventeen and a right pompous ass Hiro continues to live a dual life as a hero and a average student.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""GoGo Tomago (Leiko Tanaka)"" type=""button"">GoGo Tomago (Leiko Tanaka) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></font> 17<br/><font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers in Brief:</span></font> Armored suit grants ability to transform her body into an explosive ball of energy<br/><font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span></font> Skilled motorcyclist, Accomplished racer and stunt driver, Knowledge of underworld criminal activities.<br/><font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-b"">History:</span></font><br/>Born an orphan on the streets of Utsonomiya in the Tochigi Prefecture, Leiko grew into a life as a street urchin quickly learning how to pick-pockets and generally begin her life of crime very quickly.

At the age of ten Leiko fell into the Shikei-Otaku, a bosozoku involved with the Yakuza and over the years grew quite knowledgeable with the Yakuza's workings. <br/><br/>At the age of fifteen Leiko led a small group of other children from her bosokoku to rob the Kiyohara Industrial Complex. For the most part everything was going to plan but it didn't take long for everything to go south. She wasn't sure how it happened but Leiko was left ""holding the bag"" when the police came and arrested her. Being no stranger to the legal system Leiko believed that everything was going to go as usual but when she was led to a small room and left there for the first time in a long time she actually became afraid. When the shadowy group called the Giri came and told her that her only option was to either go to prison or join them to be trained as an agent she took the only option that made sense to her.

Her martial prowess is exceptional having extensively trained in aikido, judo, jujutsu, karate, and Shaolin kung fu.<br/><font color=""#ed145b""><span class=""bb-b"">History:</span></font> <br/>Aiko's story begins at the age of sixteen where she was enrolled in the graduate program at the Tokyo University of Science. From an early age Aiko showed great interest and promise in all fields of science and pursued the field with everything that she had. Deciding to attend the prestigious graduate program at such an early age Aiko became acutely aware of others view of her and as such decided to play the part of the bubbly air-headed blonde partially to confuse those around her and partially because she thought that it was funny. It didn't take long for Japan's premiere intelligence agency to take notice of the beautiful blonde with a knack for science to be their latest secret agent and so Aiko joined with Naicho under the name Honey Lemon (the name of her favorite character from her favorite TV show at time).<br/><br/>Aiko joined a prominent research and development team working with top physicist, chemists and mechanical engineers creating technology for all branches of the government. While within the short time she spent in Naicho Aiko played a major part in devolping major breakthroughs in surveillance technology Aiko's personal greatest invention was the creation of what she dubbed the Power Purse. It combined advanced wormhole generation technology with Pym Particles and the latest in nanotechnology which allowed Aiko to store an indefinite number of things she may need for her missions. <br/><br/>Among the intelligence community rumors began about a group of elite businessmen and government officials called the Giri were attempting to create an entire team of superheroes run by the government and Aiko quickly saw an opportunity to rise in rank and status. After some carefully placed whispers and rumors the Naicho decided to nominate Aiko to take part in the new found team.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Fredzilla (Fred)"" type=""button"">Fredzilla (Fred) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""#82ca9d""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></font> 17<br/><font color=""#82ca9d""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers in Brief:</span></font> Fred is a mutant who has the ability to generate an immense solid aura that he uses to fight with.

What little is known is that his family were native Ainu of Japan and the first manifestation of his powers caused devastation. As most of these memories have been taken from him Fred has grown up as many teenagers do. Fred's almost unnatural love for anything comic book, anime, or superhero related has given him the air of a below average high school student when in actuality he is by far one of the most trained members of Big Hero 6. When his combat training became more and more intense Fred has, in a sense, developed a dual personality when he becomes specifically challenged.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Monster Baymax (Baymax)"" type=""button"">Monster Baymax (Baymax) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><font color=""gray""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></font> Indefinite <br/><font color=""gray""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span></font> Baymax is an artificial synth-former that is capable of changing his shape into any form.

As metal clashed against metal the challenger pressed on with his assault all hope seemed lost for the champion. With one punch the challengers bot sent the champion's bot <br/>sprawling across the ring. This was an illegal bot fighting match, <br/><br/>one of several such events that have been springing up all over <br/><br/>Tokyo. With the introduction of motorized mecha models there have <br/><br/>been thousands of amateur inventors that have been changing their <br/><br/>models and preparing them for back alley brawls. While normally this <br/><br/>would be no real cause for concern the increase of betting brought <br/><br/>in numerous criminal elements and as such the Yakuza began taking an <br/><br/>extreme interest in the profits that it could bring.<br/><br/>The current champion of the Shibuya Ward just so happened to be a <br/><br/>member of the Yakuza, a large heavy set man by the name of Yama <br/><br/>Uetsu. Known to be a rather cruel fighter appeared to be losing his <br/><br/>championship fight. As the challenger moved in for the kill Yama's <br/><br/>bot the aptly named Lil' Yama came back with a surprise buzzsaw <br/><br/>through the challengers back leaving the once promising challenger <br/><br/>defeated and dejected. As the crowd roared in amazement for what <br/><br/>they just witnessed the towering bulk that was Yama stood and <br/><br/>collected the money gathered in bets, a healthy sum that would <br/><br/>greatly line his pockets for the next several weeks. With his ego at <br/><br/>an all time high Yama stood bot in hand and proclaimed to the world,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Who's next? Who thinks they step into the ring with Lil' Yama <br/><br/>and fare better than this sorry excuse for a bot?""</span><br/><br/>The once loud and rambunctious crowd grew suddenly deathly quiet. <br/><br/>Everyone in attendance knew who Yama was and knew the consequences <br/><br/>if they were to challenge such an infamous figure in their culture. <br/><br/>From the back of the crowd came a sheepish voice, if the crowd <br/><br/>hadn't been so quiet they would have never heard it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I..I'll try.""</span><br/><br/>The crowd parted like the Red Sea to see a scrawny teenager with a <br/><br/>childish looking bot standing by the door. Upon first, and any <br/><br/>other, glance the boy looked like the typical student; hair in a <br/><br/>greasy disheveled mess, glasses starting to fall off his nose, and a <br/><br/>wrinkled uniform covered by a worn and tattered bomber jacket. As <br/><br/>soon as Yama laid eyes on the boy he immediately burst into a deep <br/><br/>belly laugh which soon was followed by every other person in <br/><br/>attendance. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Go home little boy, this is where the big boys play. You don't <br/><br/>have enough cash to play here!""</span><br/><br/>Turning an interesting shade of red the boy once again sheepishly spoke,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Oh...uh..well..I've got money.""</span><br/><br/>Reaching into his jacket the boy pulled out a crumpled wad of yen that couldn't have been less than ($)100,000. Raising an eyebrow in interest Yama weighed his options. If the boy was willing to risk everything he had then who was he to deny the boy. Nodding to the ref/bet taker Yama pulled out his own stack of cash, putting in no where near what the boy was about to put up. As Yama's deal with the ref was about to conclude the boy once again spoke up,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Uh...if I may ask how much is your bet?""</span><br/><br/>Slightly confused by the question Yama couldn't help but wonder why the boy would ask such a question,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""What's it matter?""</span> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Well...uh..I ask since it doesn't look like..uh as big as mine. As good as you are I..uh would think it would be an easy win.""</span><br/><br/>Now Yama was sure that something was up with the kid but as he was going to rebute the whispering from the crowd began was beginning to irritate. What the boy had said was beginning to make the crowd second guess him and that was something that Yama could not have, not on his turf.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Alright little boy, if you go all in so will I. By the way what's your name so I know who to thank when I win?""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Hiro...Hiro Takachiho.""</span><br/><br/>As the bout started the boy's demeanor changed, suddenly the boy was brimming with confidence and swagger as the bot jumped and hoped around dodging Lil' Yama effortlessly. As Hiro controlled the bot with a remote on his wrist Yama could do little but watch helplessly as the very thing that he was making fun of just moments ago was systematically tearing his prize bot apart as if it was tissue paper. When Hiro was done Lil' Yama lay scattered about the ring in pieces and Hiro's bot returned dutifully to its master side.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Well well, I must say that was interesting. Well at least I have some traveling money now. Thanks Yama...your a pretty stand up guy helping out a sweet innocent kid like me.""</span><br/><br/>Once again the hulking figure of Yama towered over Hiro, only this time Yama was not in a joking mood. With gun drawn Yama was ready to kill this little arrogant punk for trying to pull a fast one on him, when suddenly through the same door that Hiro came through came another hulking figure. One as equally impressive as Yama's,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""gray"">""I suggest that you put your gun away sir. This will most certainly end poorly for you if you continue this course of action.""</font></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""And what are you going to do if I don't?""</span><br/><br/>Without a second thought the newest man in the room grabbed the gun from Yama and crushed it with his bare hands while throwing Yama across the room. The man turned to Hiro and began dragging him out by his collar.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""gray"">""Hiro, you no better than to go out illegally gambeling especially when we have an assignment tomorrow that requires us to travel.""</font></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Would you relax Baymax...I was procuring some personal spending cash...YEEOOOWWWWWWW!""</span><br/><br/>Baymax, growing ever tired of listening to Hiro's excuses began pulling him by the ear as they marched back to their hotel room. This was not going to be as fun as Hiro thought it would.</div>"

From the start he was thick in the privileged life being the son of royalty.  He had the finest clothes, the best hand crafted weapons at his disposal, and the adoration of the town.  As such growing up Thor had the ego that matched his growing strength and skill in combat. However there was always something that kept the young lad's pride from overtaking his common sense.  His younger brother Loki.<br/><br/>While he never understood until years later why Loki wasn't as liked in the kingdom as he was. Thor looked up to his younger brother in a lot of ways.  Loki's use of cunning in combat was seen as a hindrance and making up in physical weakness.  However Thor always admired it, having never been the brightest himself admittedly.  He studied it and tried to incorporate it into his own battle style to success.  It was that, plus all the adventures the two would have that Thor loved about his brother.  He wasn't even phased when he learned the truth, he saw no reason to see Loki as anything less even if his blood wasn't the same as his.<br/><br/>However after the fateful night Loki lost to Eltri and was mocked by all of the people of Asgard. A night Thor was about to come to his brother's aid when his father strictly forbidden him from doing so. Thor saw the slowly evolving change in Loki.  The bitterness and hate growing even as Thor tried to subdue it by having Loki join him on quests and journeys.  Hoping to rekindle the fun they had as kids.<br/>When of a proper age Thor was given the hammer Mjolnir by his father that was made by Eltri. He loved it and it quickly became his favorite and most cherished weapon.  Though soon after Loki went into exile and after being found was put into torture for as long as he lived.  Again Thor, realizing what it all meant, still remained helpless to do anything about it.<br/><br/>It was soon after Ragnarok occurred, the twisted damnation of blood and horrors that Thor found himself in the middle of.  It was in the midst of this battlefield Thor and Loki finally found themselves face to face.  Thor tried in vain to bring some sense of reason to Loki but his brother was gone.  The battle was chaotic and violent, however when Thor finally had the chance to end Loki and bring the madness to a stop his love for his brother made it impossible.  It was from that moment on Thor escaped the collapsing Asgard kingdom through a mix of luck, desperation, and a selfishness that bothers him to this day.  He lost Mjolnir in all the insanity but the situation would have left him dead if he hadn't.<br/><br/>When Thor found himself on Midgard he was left without so much as a rhyme or reason to exist.  Instead with nothing but a name he took to journeying the world the Midgardians made for themselves.  It was a fascinating and humbling experience for the now former prince.  From hiking across the plains of China ,working as a carriage handler in Victorian London, to crazy enough working as a roadie for ABBA.  Thor has seen just about everything the world has to offer.  Finally he settled down in a small cabin out in the wilderness of the area now known as Montana.  He would from time to time journey out to various nearby small towns for whatever essentials he needed but mostly kept to himself.  Staying off the grid of the growing world around him with only a basic idea what was happening around him.<br/><br/>When SHIELD were keeping an eye on Tarene in her destructive quest for Loki's head.  They came across an unusual reading that led them to finding that there was an Asgardian hiding in rural Montana... <br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Being of both Asgardian and Elder God ancestor.  Thor possesses strength, invulnerability, stamina, and speed.  Though the most notable thing about Thor is his weapon of choice, Mjolnir.  With it Thor can levitate and fly by throwing it and holding onto the handle and control of weather in particular lightning.<br/><br/>Ever since Thor started living his life on Earth, Thor has been able to adapt and learn plenty of new tools.  From iron forging, leather work, caring for horses, cooking, farming, to countless other things.  Thor has a knack for plenty of different tasks.  Though even with seeing it grow around him Thor still hasn't quite figured out modern technology.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span> The first and naturally the easiest is trying to rekindle his relationship with his brother Loki.  Wanting to believe that Loki is a changed man, but naturally having his doubts.<br/><br/>Thor wants to see a re-birthing of Asgard and goes on a journey to do so.<br/><br/>Meeting a wonderful young woman in Jane Thomas, Thor has to decide if he can continue being the mighty warrior, or finally settle down.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span> Midgard's alcoholic brews just never quite satisfied him quite like the Asgardian beverages.  The kind of 1000 year old fermented masterpieces of booze that a mere mortal could only possibly barely handle.  Still the occasional beer did its job to soothe away any woes he had at that moment.  <br/><br/>The cabin he had made for himself all those years ago still sufficed perfectly.  Aside from the rare kids who would come out to it, because of some stupid myth it was haunted by the ghost of a crankily old man.  Thor didn't really have anyone bother him and he was perfectly fine with it.  The house had only just gotten electricity to come to it, but aside from a refrigerator and some lights Thor didn't really have much else.  The one time he really tried to watch TV it just made him annoyed to the point he broke the TV punching it, and the internet... that library still won't let him back.<br/><br/>As Thor finished the last of the bottle and not having much else to do at the moment got up from the old couch to get another beer.  Carelessly tossing the empty bottle into a trash bin with a small 'clang!' emitting from it.  Thor opened up the fridge to find aside from random small dishes he had made for himself recently.  The fridge was practically hollow in its emptiness.<br/><br/>“Damn.”<br/><br/>Thor sighed annoyed as he flipped the door close, throwing a jacket on over his beat up t-shirt and jeans to go get some things in town.<br/><br/>Thor always felt weird doing these sort of things everyone around him seem to never really think about.  How back all those years ago he'd never one think to get something himself, the Asgard kingdom had more than enough people there to get him something at his slightest whim.  As Thor grabbed a case of Samuel Adams, he thought for a moment about that, and its sad but natural course into what had happened to his home.  It seems like a day to day wonder if he should hope Loki is alive or dead.  At least dead he might finally have made peace with the nightmare he caused.<br/><br/>""Ugh Loki, you're making me shop at a grocery store.  You are an evil prick...""  Thor just weakly joked under his breath as he stopped and looked around the store.  Trying to remember where the bologna was.  </div>"

She quickly came to the point to quickly appreciate the confidence and self-assured that had come being She-Hulk.

Unknown to Aaron Davis, a spider genetically enhanced with a OZ formula crawled into his bag. <br/><br/>Miles Morales decides to visit his uncle, against his parents order. While sitting on his uncles bag, a spider crawled out and bit Miles hand while he was eating a lollipop, causing him to pass out for a long amount of time. Later, when Miles awakened from his slumber, his dad was having a conversation with his uncle Aaron Davis. After the conversation, Miles escaped  from Aaron's apartment.<br/><br/><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/a/a6/Miles_Morales_Ultimate_Spider-Man_Vol_1_1_Peterson_Variant_Textless.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/400?cb=20140411194210""/><br/>While hiding from his father on the street, Miles noticed that he was more faster than usual when he ran over to hide from his father, when he noticed that he could climb walls, he noticed that he was becoming a mutant, or that's what he thought he was becoming. Alerted, Miles ran to his friend, Ganke, and confessed his new-found abilities. Ganke was amazed and did some research and discovered that Spider-Man got his powers by a spider-bit  like Miles did. This gave Miles to climb walls and fire webs out of his wrist. However, Miles' just wanted to be normal, his father often lectured about mutants and rejecting them.<br/><br/>The next day, Miles and his friend Ganke ask about the spider-bite and Aaron confesses that he doesn't know ANYTHING about the spider. He didn't remember anything about the spider, convinced that his uncle, Aaron was telling the truth. The two back away and do more research on the spider bite. As the two study the spider bite and the traits that change Miles' they discover that he also had Spider-Strength and was enabled to do what a normal human being can't do. He was super-human. <br/><br/>The next day and a couple weeks, Miles snuck out and created a make-shift costume to save Spider-Man, but not in time, Spider-Man was killed. Blaming himself for the death of Spider-Man, Miles made it up that he would have to take the mantle of Spider-Man and fight crime. Discovering his powers and knowing the guideline of what a true hero is suppose to take care of, Miles creates his own costume and becomes the NEW Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-i"">Career</span></font></div><br/>For a brief 5 months, Miles decided to spend most of his time getting to know New York and the moral of becoming the Ultimate Spider-Man. After discovering what Peter had to go through, Miles had a tough life in New York city after his father died from a car-crash that he couldn't stop. Only with his mother, Miles soon revealed his identity to his mother, revealing that he was the new Ultimate Spider-Man. Soon enough, Miles had discovered more secrets of New York.<br/> Meanwhile Miles still had time to learn as the new Ultimate Spider-Man, he wonders and tries to hunch on the fact that he got his powers. For a short time, Miles had a science project with Gwen Stacy, using this time to get to know Peter much better, he discovers what he is suppose to do as the Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/>After lecturing with Gwen Stacy, Miles' tunes into the news channel and discovers that his uncle, (The Prowler) is about to kill his mother. Alerted and ready, Miles suits up and takes down his uncle.<br/><br/>After 5 months of his brief career, The Ultimate Spider-Man attempts to take a new threat, a thug.<br/><br/>Cletus Kasday meets Miles in a cell and tells the boy that his uncle, Aaron Davis worked with him once, Miles believes that the thug is lying, the thug pulls out a remote, and a portal shows up, grabbing Miles.<br/><div class=""bb-h1""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">New Universe, New Hero Buisness</font></span></div><br/>After discovering he was in a different timeline, Miles' plays low and realizes another Spider-Man is in the universe, slowly slipping into his suit when Spider-Man wasn't at the scene, Miles noticed that the Peter Parker that was in the universe, didn't know that he knew his identity.<br/>Discovering about the portal that swooped him up into a different timeline, Miles' Morales soon stopped different villains and learned about a time-chain. After proving he was worthy enough of being the new Ultimate Spider-Man, the Ultimate Spider-Man went back to business trying to create something that would tune him back into his current timeline, failing to do so, Miles Morales was trapped in a different universe.<br/>After a while, Miles took on the name 'Kid-Spider' and fought with Spider-Woman on a tough debate over if he was really Kid-Spider. Spider-Woman &amp; Kid-Spider became enemies and never encountered after the fight, but Miles does remember that he got knocked out pretty bad and he couldn't use his powers for a while.<br/><br/>Going by a different name; ""The Red-Spider."" Miles Morales discovered more of his skills and soon built advanced web shooters to take on Spider-Woman again, this time she was covered in the symbiotic substance and this made it hard for Miles to take her out. Until Miles discovered that he needed to make the bell ring for her to snap out of the symbiote.<br/><br/>While swinging in an alley, Miles almost went plummeting into the ground, this gave him the idea of making multiple web shooters and also a secret base of operations. After learning how to control his anger and control his issues, Miles turned 14 by the time he created another Spider-Man costume.<br/><br/><img src=""https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRZlji5XtJNULODFglnnGvFUbSuJIEEl7u0h3DIdVmbc4B0RH9P""/><br/>Miles learned that he would always cause chaos if he was trying to create peace around New York city, either way, he always learned as the Amazing Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Now.</span><br/><br/>Miles is known as a vigilante and he went by the name, The Masked Spider and soon met Felicia Hardy, who pulled off crimes.

It was finally time to inaugurate the new Spider-Man to the public, Miles thought as he finished sketching his own image of his suit. It wasn't bad at all, it just needed a bit of red into it. But that would be copying Peter, Miles thought hopelessly as he sighed deeply. Why was he always so lonely? It was driving him crazy, before he was dragged into a different dimension by Otto Octavis, Miles could remember his mother screaming. But it's not going to take THAT long for him to get back to his universe, he just needed to seek knowledge. But, what if he ends up staying? Chaos was always going on at his hometown, he was sure if he came back he would be dead in a second. Miles emitted a long deep sigh, with such emotion, Miles took off his rucker T baseball hat, setting it down gently on his bed. No matter how hard he tried, chaos would always just strike harder. Miles felt like he could relate to what he was going through to Peter, he didn't feel normal anymore, he was stuck in a different timeline. It was like being stuck in a box. Miles turned around to glare at his computer, beginning to think as if he was crazy. He wasn't just lucky for being Spider-Man.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">It was meant for him to be Spider-Man.</span><br/>Miles darted toward his laptop, reaching quickly to turn on his laptop. While he was waiting for his laptop to load, he didn't know why he was on another universe. But for whatever reason wasn't just lucky. It wasn't meant to happen.<br/><br/>Miles felt zonked, his stomach making a small groan. First he was bitten by a spider, now he's in a different timeline, how could it get worse? Miles set his laptop, gently on his lap, holding his laptop in his clutches, standing up. He backed up to sit on the bed, finally, the computer had finally turned on. Miles began to type in his username, but before he could even touch a key on the keyboard---, his spider-sense warned him. Danger was present. Miles quickly began to set his laptop away and quickly hid under his bed as the door was being pushed open.<br/><br/>Miles was under his bed by the time the door was pushed open. Miles hesitated, shivering, what if it was Dr. Octopus? What if it was someone who was searching to kill him or have him captured? Quickly, Miles was alerted. As the man shut the door silently, the man solidly approached  Miles computer. It looked like the man wasn't playing around, Miles thought, as he rolled out under the bed. Quickly, Miles motioned himself in a fighting posture. As the stranger slowly turned around, Miles realized he was holding a gun in his hand.<br/>In a few seconds, Miles thought that he wouldn't be breathing anymore. Frightened, Miles backed away from the man, hitting onto a desk that was right behind him. The gun was already aimed in the direct sight, as the man was about to pull the trigger on the gun, Miles had already been occupied with something that helped him out of the case scenario. Frightened almost to death, the man panicked and sprinted out of Miles base.<br/>Miles emitted a long deep breath, how did the man enter his base first of all? What did the man see to even run away? Miles wondered to himself, walking to the door to peer out of the room. The man was still racing down the hallway.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Pathetic.""</span><br/>Miles shut the door and began to put on his costume to roam the streets as the Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/>""I love my life!""

Unknown to Aaron Davis, a spider genetically enhanced with a OZ formula crawled into his bag. <br/><br/>Miles Morales decides to visit his uncle, against his parents wishes. While sitting on his uncles bag, a spider crawled out and bit Miles' while he was eating a lollipop, causing him to pass out for a long amount of time.

Alerted, Miles ran to his friend, Ganke, and confessed his new-found abilities. Ganke was amazed and did some research and discovered that Spider-Man got his powers by a spider-bit  like Miles did. This gave Miles to climb walls and fire webs out of his wrist. However, Miles' just wanted to be normal, his father often lectured about mutants and rejecting them.<br/><br/>The next day, Miles and his friend Ganke ask about the spider-bite and Aaron confesses that he doesn't know ANYTHING about the spider. He didn't remember anything about the spider, convinced that his uncle, Aaron was telling the truth. The two back away and do more research on the spider bite. As the two study the spider bite and the traits that change Miles' they discover that he also had Spider-Strength and was enabled to do what a normal human being can't do. He was super-human. <br/><br/>The next day and a couple weeks, Miles snuck out and created a make-shift costume to save Spider-Man, but not in time, Spider-Man was killed. Blaming himself for the death of Spider-Man, Miles made it up that he would have to take the mantle of Spider-Man and fight crime.

His parents were immigrants from Ireland, who had fled to the United States of America to escape the potato famine there. Steve's parents drilled into their son the characteristics of honor, loyalty, justice and courage. They taught Steve to be brave in the face of any danger. Rogers was raised to see the best in himself and others, always going the extra mile to make a friend or stand up for what he believed in. As Steve grew older, he tried his hand at sports. But he wasn't very athletic at all; he was often described as a twig with arms. He couldn't build any sort of muscle despite all his hard work and he seemed destined to be skinny and weak for the rest of his life. He was regularly the target of bullying, both physical and verbal. Steve fought back when he could but mostly had to ignore the constant picking of other kids. Rogers relied on his friends Arnie Roth and Duvid Fortunov for protection when the gangs and thugs came around looking to mess with Steve. The threesome were known for getting in brawls with other groups of kids, regularly picking fights with the local scum to protect less capable kids.<br/><br/>It quickly became apparent to anyone looking that Steven Rogers possessed a noble heart and a fierce fighting spirit, even if he routinely got his butt beat.<br/><br/>Knowing he had no future in athletics (as he had one desired), Steve Rogers majored in fine arts during college and proved himself to be an excellent artist.<br/><br/>The boy's life took a drastic change, however, when Nazi Germany invaded the neighboring country of Poland. The Axis forces swept like a tide over Western Europe and their atrocities struck a cord within Steve. He spent his days watching the newsreels and yearning to help Europe in their fight against this obvious evil. Eventually Steve grew tired of just watching the battle unfold and decided to sign up for the United States Army, sure that the U.S would join the war eventually. When Steve attempted to join the United States military, he was quickly rejected for being too physically weak and labelled a 4-F. Steve Rogers wanted with all his heart to join the Army and fight for his country; so he tried again. And again. Steve signed up for the military under two dozen different aliases, going so far as to change his hair and eye color and travel across his home state to different recruiting offices each time. Steve was puny and didn't even come close to passing the mandatory physical exam for induction, although he wanted with all his life to serve his country, he was rejected and stamped out.<br/><br/>One of the recruiters for Project: Rebirth working in Brooklyn caught wind of Steve's efforts and intercepted the determined man at one of the recruiting stations. The recruiter was looking for test subjects for the Super Soldier project; men who were willing to die for their country. When met Rogers, the recruiter was impressed by Steve's dedication and fervor. He convinced Steve to work with Project: Rebirth, promising Rogers that he would be able to do what he had set out to do: Stop the Nazis. The recruiter brought Steve to meet the staff in charge of Project: Rebirth. The staff included Abraham Erskine, Peggy Carter, General Patton, Howard Stark, and various others. The plan was to create the very first Super Soldier. They wanted a man who could single handedly turn the tide of the war in the favor of the Allies, whom they were (apparently) planning to help fight. This fact surprised the soon-to-be captain, since Pearl Harbor had yet to occur and Roosevelt seemed hellbent on staying out of World War II. Regardless, Steve went along with the program. <br/><br/>It took months of work but eventually Steven Rogers was changed into Captain America, a 6'2 240 pound spitting image of patriotism. His handlers went to work sculpting Steve into the perfect soldier. He was taught how to fight, how to lead and how to speak. He was gifted a shield made out of vibranium and adamantium that was completely indestructible and taught how to use it as a weapon.<br/><br/>Captain America, alongside the Howling Commandos, fought in Europe as a covert unit against the forces of the Third Reich. They targeted HYDRA, the terrorist organization created by Nazi spymaster Baron Von Strucker and led by the infamous Red Skull. The Howling Commandos sabotaged HYDRA facilities at every turn, with the captain and Red Skull facing off in hand to hand many times and stalemating each other in every fight. It was soon revealed that the Red Skull had been created using a combination of stolen Super Solider Serum plans as well as technology from the alien race called the Chitauri. Herr Kleiser, an SS officer, was actually a member of the Chitauri race and had provided Red Skull with the necessary enhancements to fight Captain America one-on-one. During one of Steve Roger's many battles against HYDRA and the Chitauri, Henrich Zemo is killed by one of the Howling Commandos. Bucky Barnes is introduced to Steve via General Patton and the two quickly hit it off. Bucky joins the Howling Commandos as they try to put a stop to the German war machine before it tramples over the final bastions of European resistance. Arnim Zola, a Nazi scientist working with the Chitauri to produce an army of bio-mechanical soldiers, is defeated by Bucky and Captain America and imprisoned in the United States until modern times.<br/><br/>Near the end of the war, the Nazis were beginning to grow desperate. Johann Schmidt kidnapped Albert Einstein and various other members of Project Manhattan and forced them to build a nuclear weapon for HYDRA. Nick Fury caught wind of the plan and sent the Howling Commandos along with a battalion of tanks led by General Patton to overtake the castle from which the missile was to be launched. Captain America and Bucky battled Herr Kleiser and the Red Skull to a standstill. It seemed the Captain and his sidekick were going to win the day; that is, until Herr Kleiser fired off the nuclear weapon, aimed directly at Washington, D.C. Captain America, without a second thought, leaped onto the back of the missile and rode it into the sky. Red Skull quickly followed, the two super soldiers battling precariously over the Atlantic Ocean on top of a nuclear explosive that could level an entire city. Steve disabled the nuke, but in the scramble to do so slipped off the side of the nuke and fell into the freezing waters below. He watched as Red Skull was engulfed by the flames of the bomb.<br/><br/>As he sunk to the bottom of the ocean, all Cap could think about is how much he'd miss Peggy. He'd always meant to ask her out; but with the war and all, he'd never had the time. At least Red Skull would die with him, right?</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS/ABILITIES:</span> <br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Super Soldier Serum"" type=""button"">Super Soldier Serum [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The Super Soldier Serum is a chemical compound of unknown makeup created by Doctor Abraham Erskine and Doctor Koch. The serum, on its own, develops the human body to the pinnacle of its potential; effectively creating the peak of humankind. But the original Super Soldier creation process did not only involve injection of the super solider serum but also bombardment by the mysterious radiation known only as Vita Rays. The mixture of Vita radiation and the serum compound enhances the subject to superhuman levels. The immune system, muscle growth, bone density and nervous system are all raised to seemingly impossible levels of efficiency. The third step of the process accelerates the serum's multiplication at the cellular level, stabilizing the compound and reducing the likelihood of adverse side effects. The first step of the SSP is highly classified and documentation is incomplete but available for SHIELD's use. The second step, involving the Vita Rays, was never well-documented in the first place; the majority of papers written on the existence of Vita Rays were destroyed when Heinz Kruger assassinated Abraham Erskine. The third step of Project: Rebirth is entirely unknown; researchers speculate that only Koch and Erskine knew of the third step. The full Super Soldier Process has only been used on a handful of individuals, with even fewer surviving into modern times. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Strength:</span> Project: Rebirth gifted Captain America with much sturdier bones and muscles. During the war, it wasn't uncommon to see Steve pry a tank's cannon from its turret. There are numerous eye witness accounts of Steve Rogers lifting a full-blown Sturmgeschütz III over his head and slamming it into the ground with enough force to smash it to bits. He has the strength to casually throw around motorcycles and small cars, tear apart jeeps with his bare hands, and throw his shield hard enough to slice solid steel. His time in the ice has greatly weakened his underutilized muscles and bones, temporarily dropping his insane strength to Spider-Man levels.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Speed/Reflexes:</span> Steve Rogers possesses top speeds comparable to an automobile. During the Second World War, he often raced against various tanks and jeeps while on base for the amusement of the troops. Veterans were quoted as saying that Captain America ""Once chased down a Cheetah and caught it for dinner"" while on tour in Northern Africa. This same speed translates into how quickly Cap can react. He regularly blocks hails of bullets with his shield, dodges oncoming tank shells and on one occasion allegedly caught a bullet in flight.<br/>Having been frozen at subzero temperatures for decades has slowed down Steve's speed and reflexes significantly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Super Endurance/Disease Immunity/Healing Factor:</span> Captain America's body does not produce as many fatigue toxins as a normal human, and thus is able to operate at peak efficiency for hours on end. Steve is impervious to gas attacks and poisons of any kind. His body is naturally resistant to all sorts of diseases, including anthrax, HIV, small pox and every known nerve toxin on earth. His doctors described him as ""unbreakable."" In the same vain, his body's natural healing is boosted to such levels that bullet wounds heal themselves in hours. Knife wounds disappear in minutes. His immune system can overcome any infection. There isn't a bacteria on earth that his body can't obliterate, given a little bit of time.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Hyper Advanced Brain:</span> One of Steve's most important enhancements was made to his brain. His memory is photographic. Drastically increased cognitive processing allows Steve to learn anything by merely observing and trying it for himself. His long-term memory is expanded, giving Cap room for more knowledge than any normal human. His brain's enhanced nature means that he can process information extremely fast, granting Steve the uncanny power to 'see faster.' In essence, Captain America sees everything in slow motion, even objects moving faster than the speed of sound. This ability is what gives Steve his tactical genius and lets him calculate his shield's ricochets in less than a second.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Learned Abilities"" type=""button"">Learned Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Advanced Martial Artist:</span> Captain America is an expert martial artist. He has developed his own fighting style that utilizes moves from Judo, American boxing, Taekwondo, Akido, Karate, Ju-jitsu, pressure points and various other disciplines. The focal point of this style is Steve's shield but he is able to adapt it just fine to unarmed combat. His advanced cognitive processing and memory are to thank for his quick learning and development in battle.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Superior Tactician and Strategist:</span> A natural leader even before the Super Soldier procedure, Steve is a capable tactician. He has spent years learning the strategies of past generals and leaders. But all the studying in the world doesn't matter when the bullets start to fly. Most men buckle under the pressure of combat; but Captain America is not most men. He'll admit that he can't think nearly as well in a tent a hundred miles from the front as he can in the trenches with explosions rocking the battlefield around him. He's proven himself time and again a master of squad-based warfare, taking down much larger enemy forces with minimal resources and manpower using only his strategic mind.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Charismatic Orator:</span> Much like his tactical mind, the Captain was a powerful speaker before he had been enhanced. After becoming the famed Captain America, Steve was taught by the best of the best how to communicate to the masses. He was shown the intricacies of diplomacy and inspiration. He knows how to to sway the opinions of almost anyone with little more than words.</div></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#0054a6"">Sample Story Arcs:</font></span><br/><br/>Second Coming of the Red Skull: The Red Skull returns! He's back, and deadlier than ever. But how did he return? What does he want? The stakes are almost as high as they were in the final days of World War II as the Red Skull attempts to resurrect the Fourth Reich and bring America to its knees.<br/><br/>The Chitauri Invasion: Herr Kleiser and the Chitauri appear once more, now with an army of shape shifting aliens bent on revenge against Captain America and the entirety of earth. Connections between the Skrulls and the Chitauri become prevalent as Cap investigates the aliens' return, and tries to find a way to defeat them.<br/><br/>Man Out of Time: This is more of an ongoing story than a single arc. Steve Rogers finds himself in a world unlike the one he had left. He suffers from culture shock as he attempts to meld into modern society and reconnect with past friends and allies.<br/><br/>Death of Captain America: I want to do this one eventually. I'll keep it on the hush hush for now.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span></font> Do I have tooooo? I'll do one eventually.

Nearly two months before Peter Parker's death, a criminal named Aaron Davis broke into Osborn industries. Unknown to Aaron Davis, a spider genetically enhanced with a OZ formula crawled into his bag. <br/><br/>Miles Morales decides to visit his uncle, against his parents order. While sitting on his uncles bag, a spider crawled out and bit Miles hand while he was eating a lollipop, causing him to pass out for a long amount of time. Later, when Miles awakened from his slumber, his dad was having a conversation with his uncle Aaron Davis. After the conversation, Miles escaped  from Aaron's apartment.<br/><br/><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/a/a6/Miles_Morales_Ultimate_Spider-Man_Vol_1_1_Peterson_Variant_Textless.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/400?cb=20140411194210""/><br/>While hiding from his father on the street, Miles noticed that he was more faster than usual when he ran over to hide from his father, when he noticed that he could climb walls, he noticed that he was becoming a mutant, or that's what he thought he was becoming. Alerted, Miles ran to his friend, Ganke, and confessed his new-found abilities. Ganke was amazed and did some research and discovered that Spider-Man got his powers by a spider-bit  like Miles did. This gave Miles to climb walls and fire webs out of his wrist. However, Miles' just wanted to be normal, his father often lectured about mutants and rejecting them.<br/><br/>The next day, Miles and his friend Ganke ask about the spider-bite and Aaron confesses that he doesn't know ANYTHING about the spider. He didn't remember anything about the spider, convinced that his uncle, Aaron was telling the truth. The two back away and do more research on the spider bite. As the two study the spider bite and the traits that change Miles' they discover that he also had Spider-Strength and was enabled to do what a normal human being can't do. He was super-human. <br/><br/>The next day and a couple weeks, Miles snuck out and created a make-shift costume to save Spider-Man, but not in time, Spider-Man was killed. Blaming himself for the death of Spider-Man, Miles made it up that he would have to take the mantle of Spider-Man and fight crime. Discovering his powers and knowing the guideline of what a true hero is suppose to take care of, Miles creates his own costume and becomes the NEW Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-i"">Career</span></font></div><br/>For a brief 5 months, Miles decided to spend most of his time getting to know New York and the moral of becoming the Ultimate Spider-Man. After discovering what Peter had to go through, Miles had a tough life in New York city after his father died from a car-crash that he couldn't stop. Only with his mother, Miles soon revealed his identity to his mother, revealing that he was the new Ultimate Spider-Man. Soon enough, Miles had discovered more secrets of New York.<br/> Meanwhile Miles still had time to learn as the new Ultimate Spider-Man, he wonders and tries to hunch on the fact that he got his powers. For a short time, Miles had a science project with Gwen Stacy, using this time to get to know Peter much better, he discovers what he is suppose to do as the Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/>After lecturing with Gwen Stacy, Miles' tunes into the news channel and discovers that his uncle, (The Prowler) is about to kill his mother. Alerted and ready, Miles suits up and takes down his uncle.<br/><br/>After 5 months of his brief career, The Ultimate Spider-Man attempts to take a new threat, a thug.<br/><br/>Cletus Kasday meets Miles in a cell and tells the boy that his uncle, Aaron Davis worked with him once, Miles believes that the thug is lying, the thug pulls out a remote, and a portal shows up, grabbing Miles.<br/><div class=""bb-h1""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">New Universe, New Hero Buisness</font></span></div><br/>After discovering he was in a different timeline, Miles' plays low and realizes another Spider-Man is in the universe, slowly slipping into his suit when Spider-Man wasn't at the scene, Miles noticed that the Peter Parker that was in the universe, didn't know that he knew his identity.<br/>Discovering about the portal that swooped him up into a different timeline, Miles' Morales soon stopped different villains and learned about a time-chain. After proving he was worthy enough of being the new Ultimate Spider-Man, the Ultimate Spider-Man went back to business trying to create something that would tune him back into his current timeline, failing to do so, Miles Morales was trapped in a different universe.<br/>After a while, Miles took on the name 'Kid-Spider' and fought with Spider-Woman on a tough debate over if he was really Kid-Spider. Spider-Woman &amp; Kid-Spider became enemies and never encountered after the fight, but Miles does remember that he got knocked out pretty bad and he couldn't use his powers for a while.<br/><br/>Going by a different name; ""The Red-Spider."" Miles Morales discovered more of his skills and soon built advanced web shooters to take on Spider-Woman again, this time she was covered in the symbiotic substance and this made it hard for Miles to take her out. Until Miles discovered that he needed to make the bell ring for her to snap out of the symbiote.<br/><br/>While swinging in an alley, Miles almost went plummeting into the ground, this gave him the idea of making multiple web shooters and also a secret base of operations. After learning how to control his anger and control his issues, Miles turned 14 by the time he created another Spider-Man costume.<br/><br/><img src=""https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRZlji5XtJNULODFglnnGvFUbSuJIEEl7u0h3DIdVmbc4B0RH9P""/><br/>Miles learned that he would always cause chaos if he was trying to create peace around New York city, either way, he always learned as the Amazing Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Now.</span><br/><br/>Miles is known as a vigilante and he went by the name, The Masked Spider and soon met Felicia Hardy, who pulled off crimes. Miles also pulled this off with her, only to show her to the cops.

He has fear of being in the air too long and falling to his death.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>I want to take this character to the center of the universe as a Kid-Spider most likely? Well, yeah. His name is Kid-Spider. Wait, just kidding, it's not. I want to make him important, he is important, but I want him to be a sidekick of the Amazing Spider-Man.<br/><br/>If I can, I probably want to make this Spider-Man more of a dramatic type that always blames himself over things that he didn't do, sorta like Peter Parker. <br/><br/>Well, I also want to make this character a bit more 'bravery' type.

But that would be copying Peter, Miles thought hopelessly as he sighed deeply. Why was he always so lonely? It was driving him crazy, before he was dragged into a different dimension by Otto Octavis, Miles could remember his mother screaming. But it's not going to take THAT long for him to get back to his universe, he just needed to seek knowledge. But, what if he ends up staying? Chaos was always going on at his hometown, he was sure if he came back he would be dead in a second. Miles emitted a long deep sigh, with such emotion, Miles took off his rucker T baseball hat, setting it down gently on his bed. No matter how hard he tried, chaos would always just strike harder. Miles felt like he could relate to what he was going through to Peter, he didn't feel normal anymore, he was stuck in a different timeline. It was like being stuck in a box. Miles turned around to glare at his computer, beginning to think as if he was crazy. He wasn't just lucky for being Spider-Man.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">It was meant for him to be Spider-Man.</span><br/>Miles darted toward his laptop, reaching quickly to turn on his laptop. While he was waiting for his laptop to load, he didn't know why he was on another universe. But for whatever reason wasn't just lucky. It wasn't meant to happen.<br/><br/>Miles felt zonked, his stomach making a small groan. First he was bitten by a spider, now he's in a different timeline, how could it get worse? Miles set his laptop, gently on his lap, holding his laptop in his clutches, standing up. He backed up to sit on the bed, finally, the computer had finally turned on. Miles began to type in his username, but before he could even touch a key on the keyboard---, his spider-sense warned him. Danger was present. Miles quickly began to set his laptop away and quickly hid under his bed as the door was being pushed open.<br/><br/>Miles was under his bed by the time the door was pushed open. Miles hesitated, shivering, what if it was Dr. Octopus? What if it was someone who was searching to kill him or have him captured? Quickly, Miles was alerted. As the man shut the door silently, the man solidly approached  Miles computer. It looked like the man wasn't playing around, Miles thought, as he rolled out under the bed. Quickly, Miles motioned himself in a fighting posture. As the stranger slowly turned around, Miles realized he was holding a gun in his hand.<br/>In a few seconds, Miles thought that he wouldn't be breathing anymore. Frightened, Miles backed away from the man, hitting onto a desk that was right behind him. The gun was already aimed in the direct sight, as the man was about to pull the trigger on the gun, Miles had already been occupied with something that helped him out of the case scenario. Frightened almost to death, the man panicked and sprinted out of Miles base.<br/>Miles emitted a long deep breath, how did the man enter his base first of all? What did the man see to even run away? Miles wondered to himself, walking to the door to peer out of the room. The man was still racing down the hallway.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Pathetic.""</span><br/>Miles shut the door and began to put on his costume to roam the streets as the Ultimate Spider-Man.<br/><br/>""I love my life!""

Son to a Ronald and Henrietta, and brother to a Theresa and Orville. He was told at a young age that he had the potential to be a genius. Unfortunately, the Quackworldian never had the chance to prove everyone wrong. A demon named Thog, the Nether-Spawn, caused a shift in the interdimensional cosmic axis. This phenomena somehow plucked him from Duckworld and onto a planet in a completely different universe. Earth. He spent the next decade or so learning how to adjust to a world that was both different and eerily similar to his own. <br/><br/>Howard eventually found his way to New York, the superhero mecca of doomsday scenarios, and opened up a business as a Private Investigator. Howard T Duck Private Investigations to be exact. The clients are coming in like ceiling leaks.

A pair of pigeons had been following him since his clumsy parkour attempt across the rooftops of Hell’s Kitchen.  It’s been five minutes since he arrived and Howard was still huffing and puffing from exhaustion. The birds stared at him with their judgmental beady eyes, muttering to each other in pigeon talk.  <br/><br/>“Oh go fly into a window, ya snobs! You try pigeon toeing your way around these parts without flapping your fat wings.” The duckworldian shooed them off. They uttered a rather harsh expletive to Howard before soaring out into the full moon. “Why are the birds here so racist?” <br/><br/>He shrugged to himself as he pulled out a hefty digital camera from his knapsack. The neighborhood was darker than usual. And quiet too -- no, wait there’s the sound of a homeless man urinating down a sewer drain. How oddly calming. Howard brought up his camera and zoomed in on the building across from him. He had a front row view into the boring lives of a bunch of tenants, going about their nightly routines. <br/><br/>The old woman washing dishes. The family silently eating dinner while staring into the small screens of their phones. The cosplaying Hulk, blankly gazing into his bathroom mirror as he smears green makeup all over his body to the sound of Adele’s <span class=""bb-i"">Hello</span>. Another cosplayer, dressed up like Daredevil staring directly at me in a room full of sleeping men. Wait… those guys aren’t sleeping. <br/><br/>Howard zoomed in on the scene until he saw their bruised faces and mangled bodies. “Oh…they’re not asleep. Well, technically they are, but not in the fun slumber party kind of way. That means that Daredevil guy definitely wasn't a cosplayer...“ Howard zoomed his camera out, but the costumed hero was nowhere to be found.<br/><br/>“No. Definitely not.” A brooding voice stirred in the darkness from behind him. <br/><br/>Howard flailed his hands in the air, involuntarily sending his camera down below. He cringed at the loud crash it made as it smashed against the concrete. <span class=""bb-i"">Tara is gonna kill me</span>. The duck-man turned to face none-other-than Daredevil himself, the guy he just saw several hundred yards away across another building. <br/><br/>“You owe me a new camera, horns. But more importantly: how’d you get here so fast?” <br/><br/>“Uber.” <br/><br/>“No, really. What's your secret? I'm not even going to tell you how long it took me just to get to this spot.” <br/><br/>“What are you doing here, Howard?” The Daredevil stepped into the moonlight, revealing the man without fear in his famous crimson suit. <br/><br/>“Hey I’m not trying to step on your toes, Pal.” Howard said, inching away from the heavy intimidation factor vibes oozing out from the masked hero. ""Client sent me to this address to snoop on a Mr. Brownstone. That' all.” <br/>The air suddenly went thick. Daredevil looked about in a panic before glaring back at Howard. “Damn it. Who’s your client, Howard?” <br/><br/>“Hey, that's confidential, man. I figured you masked types appreciated that kind of policy-“ <br/><br/>“GET DOWN!” Daredevil tackled him onto the wooden beams of the scaffold as bullets zipped overhead. <br/><br/>“What the?!” Howard looked out and back at the apartment across from him, focusing in on the rooftop where a giant machine-looking thing stood. Its arms were extended outward, loaded with some serious firepower. A couple more shots rang out in their direction. <br/><br/>“HAHA! I HAVE YOU BOTH, NOW!” Came a raspy voice through what sounded like a PA speaker. “THE DEVIL AND THE DUCK!” <br/><br/>“Who are you?!” Howard shouted, but the machine man didn’t hear him.  The gunfire immediately stopped. <br/><br/>“WHAT?” the machine man’s voice rang out with annoying feedback. Howard and the Daredevil cupped their ears in unison.  <br/><br/>“WHO THE <span class=""bb-b"">HELL-ARE-YA</span>!?” Howard yelled at the top of his lungs.<br/><br/>“YES!” The machine man said, relieved to finally understand what was being said to him. “YES OF COURSE! <span class=""bb-b"">HAIL-HYDRA!!!</span>” Rockets, bullets and lasers exploded into the night sky.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I miss Duckworld…</span></div></div><br/> </div>"

Jack was a blue collar man trying to make it in the boxing world. Jack showed promise, but lacked confidence, which Beth tried her best to instill in him. The two brought the best out in one another, and married soon after meeting. <br/><br/>Jack fed of his happiness and began to rise up the ranks in the New York boxing circle. He received another boost when Beth informed him she was pregnant, and they would be welcoming a baby boy into their home. They soon welcomed Matt into the world, and could not have been happier. While they did not have a lot of money, they doted on the boy as much as possible.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Swimming with the Sharks"" type=""button"">Swimming with the Sharks [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">But the happiness was not meant to last. After and injury, Jack lost his boxing standing and his job. After rehabbing and re-entering the ring, Battling Jack was desperate to get money for his struggling family. The local underground gambling syndicate knew that as well. They approached Jack before his first big bout in his return. They knew he would win, and told him they would make him a rich man if he made sure that happened in the sixth round. He agreed, and Battling Jack Murdock then became a pawn of the mob.<br/><br/>He rose through the ranks, winning as directed. That is until he came up against a young upstart who also had mob backing. It was prior to this fight that he realized he had only been built up in order to give this young man a legitimate win to vault him to superstardom. Jack was told to take a dive, a command he broke when he won in the fourth round. Jack and his family celebrated, but the celebration was short lived.<br/><br/>In a drive-by shooting, Beth and her mother were killed, Jack injured, with Matt miraculously coming out unscathed, though his world was shattered.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Accident and Training"" type=""button"">The Accident and Training [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">In his early teens, Matt pushes an old man out of the way of an out of control truck. The truck's contents tumble off the truck, splashing Matt's eyes with radioactive material, blinding him. At the same time, he found his other senses had been raised while in the hospital. His new state confused and frightened the boy, and drove his father even further into despair. Jack, needing the money, agreed to be hired muscle in the very mob that killed his family. Eventually, this led to his death, and began Matt's life as an orphan.<br/><br/>That did not last long, however, as Murdock's maternal grandfather, whom he believed to be dead, appeared and took the boy in. Known only as ""Stick"", the elderly Japanese man, who also happened to be blind, began to teach Matt how to hone his sense to view his surroundings. Matt took to the training as he did any new skill, throwing himself in head first. Once his senses were honed, Stick taught Matt the way of the ninja, telling him it would be his responsibility to take up his family's fight when the time came, though Matt had little clue what that really meant.<br/><br/>Matt's grandfather stayed with him until he turned 18 and went to college, after which Stick disappeared, leaving only the money Matt would need to finish his schooling.<br/><br/>While at school, Matt met Franklin ""Foggy"" Nelson, and the two quickly became the best of friends.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Kitchen"" type=""button"">The Kitchen [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">After law school, Matt returned to Hell's Kitchen to begin to clean the area up through the power of law. Murdock was idealistic, believing he didn't need his grandfather's brand of justice. Instead he would use his knowledge of the law to make a difference in the neighborhood. His naivety soon got the best of him. He realized the ""truly innocent"" clients he wanted to represent did not exist, just people trying to survive the harsh realities of life. He began to make a name for himself as a public defender.<br/><br/>His highest profile case was when he cleared secretary Karen Page. Her employer had her framed for embezzlement, funneling the money through her before collecting it himself in an offshore account so quickly she did not know it. Murdock's victory started to make a name for himself, and he and Page began dating.<br/><br/>Overall, however, Matt found life as a public defender unfulfilled. He and Foggy wanted to choose the cases that catered to their skills. Pooling what little funding they had, Matt and Foggy founded Nelson and Murdock, and Karen acted as their secretary.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Devil of Hell's Kitchen"" type=""button"">The Devil of Hell's Kitchen [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Through Matt's experience at the law firm and living in the Kitchen, he quickly realized that his idealistic crusade would not be enough. He would never be able to take down the mob that haunted his neighborhood and killed his family with conventional means. They were too well entrenched and had the right people paid off. Instead, he decided to put his training to use. Adopting the moniker of ""the Devil"", he began a vigilante war to clean the mob out of Hell's Kitchen.<br/><br/>Matt fought against crime, but quickly found his way obscured by the mysterious nature of the head of his enemy. Known only as ""the Kingpin"", the head of the mob caused fear in everyone that followed him. Matt decided that the only way to get to the Kingpin was to map out the web underneath him, and that's what he did.<br/><br/>Daredevil was now ready to take the fight to the Kingpin's empire.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Allies</span><br/>-Franklin ""Foggy"" Nelson: Matt's oldest friend and business partner.<br/>-Karen Page: Matt's girlfriend<br/>-Stick: Matt's maternal grandfather and martial arts instructor<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do?

It was something that had terrified him as a child, leading him to stuff his head between pillows on rainy nights. That was before his grandfather arrived, however. That was before Stick taught him to hone his senses. With a deep breath, Matt Murdock centered himself. Instead of the rain, he heard the echoes as it bounced off his surroundings. The chaos melted away as he gained a clear ""view"" of his surroundings. He could virtually see every cracked seam of tar on the roof and the splashes of water as they fell. <br/><br/>It wasn't seeing. Not really. Nothing would ever bring his sight back. That was something the doctors made sure he knew all those years ago. But this was the next best thing. Like a bat, Matt knew where he was going. He knew where to make his next step. He knew how to judge a leap. Most importantly, he knew where to throw a punch or where to land a kick. He had been doing quite a bit a both over the last few months thanks to these extracurricular activities. Sure, he was sore in court the next day more often than not, but the Kingpin's men were behind bars. <br/><br/>That was the most important thing.<br/><br/>""What the hell are you waiting for, freak!?"" the man who was currently hogtied on the rainy roof spat at the vigilante. ""I ain't telling you a thing!""<br/><br/>Daredevil snarled at the man who had been peddling drugs to high school buyers. Matt had gotten his name from one of the kids who was selling the product for him. Murdock did hurt the kid, of course. They were easy to scare. This lowlife was a different story. He thought he was a street hero, someone who was too hard to break at the sight of the Devil. Matt was fine with that. <br/><br/>There were other ways to make street trash talk.<br/><br/>""Oh, you'll talk,"" Matt spun his billy club in his hand. ""Or you won't be able to by the time I'm done."" </div>"

He learned public education, and he wasn't very good in school. He had a rebellious personality which got him into trouble a lot. He wanted to become as smart as them, he just didn't ever seem to be as good as them. Sometimes, he felt like the odd-one out.<br/><br/>Then his mother died, Johnny's father was devastated and went into a deep depression. His sister had to become a motherly figure. Sue had to watch him over him, to make sure he didn't get in trouble. He ignored her a lot, and did dangerous, dare-devilish things. He was an hot-head. Soon, the two headed to the NY Comic-Con. Sue was Hawkgirl and Johnny was Hawkman, he saw it fit. They met Reed Richards, an awkward nerdy guy, and Ben Grimm, a big guy with a Boston accent. Mostly Sue and Reed talked. Johnny was happy that she made a friend.<br/><br/>     Then they came back. Talking about her new friends she made, Reed Richards and Ben Grimm. She told her father about how smart Reed was, and how he's very prestigious. This gave their father an idea, to make The Future Foundation. Johnny joined his sister and the other two at the Baxter Building. He saw this as a way for him to learn a lot. Plus it seemed pretty cool, they headed to a desert in Nevada to test the N-Zone Teleportation Project. Johnny didn't realize how much that it would change all four of their lives forever.<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?): Johnny has the ability to burst into flames at will by the words ""Flame On"" and ""Flame Off"". He can fly as well, from being as light as oxygen. His body's heat can rise, making his flames hotter and more effective. If he hits Super Nova, which is the temperature of the sun, he'll destroy everything including himself. His power is also controlled by the way he feels, especially excitement.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character. (Same as Drew's.)<br/><br/>After the big project, the teleportation device his father was working on, fails spectacularly.  Reed finds out one of the people who was working on it has mutated for the worst, a strange monster like creature that buries itself underground and produces mole like monsters a sexually.  Finding out about him and having to fight its now mindless form leaves Reed depressed and blaming himself, on top of what happened to himself and the other three.<br/><br/>Reed along with the rest of the newly announced Fantastic Four begin to put the pieces together about where his father went and what happened to him, which leads them to a certain castle in Latervia.<br/><br/>(This one with Kid Lantern's permission of course) After their constant struggles and disappointments against 3D Man, The skrulls decide to use the Fantastic Four as the base for a new Super Skrull prototype.  However when they get DNA samples from the four it causes the heroes' powers to go haywire, and result in the curious side effect of being able to exchange powers with one another through physical touch.<br/><br/>Sample Text: <br/>Johnny looked around. He just woke up in a hospital bed, he wondered what happened. ""Uuugh..."" He groaned, his head hurt. He looked around, and slowly sat up. Where was the others? What happened after the N-Zone Teleporter thing went out of control? Was his sister okay? A nurse walked into the room, her eyes widened as she saw Johnny trying to sit up. She said something in French. ""What? What does that even mean?"" He asked. She said something in French again, then she realized he couldn't understand her.<br/><br/>        She walked out of the room, and called for a doctor. He rubbed his head, how long has he been out? He looked around the room, there were things that he couldn't read. Was he even in America right now? A doctor walked in, he held a chart and looked at Johnny. ""Hello, I am Dr. Leon. I'm glad you've woken up. You vere out vor almost a day."" His voice was heavily accented, was this guy French? ""Where am I?"" The French doctor smiled, ""Vhy you're at Beliveau Hospital."" Johnny scratched his head, confused. ""Not that, like what city am I in right now?"" The French doctor was patient with Johnny, ""Paris."" He said. <br/><br/>                Johnny's eyes widened, ""WHAT!?"" He then ignited in flames. The  doctor jumped back, he yelled in French. The nurse ran in to help the doctor, when she saw Johnny in flames, she shrieked. ""AAAHHH!!!"" Johnny yelled, ""SOMEONE HELP ME!!"" The sprinklers finally turned on, but it didn't do much! The nurse ran out of the room. What was happening!? Johnny fell out of the bed, he then touched the heart monitor, only to make it burst into flames and spark. Johnny dropped and rolled, nothing was working! ""I'M ON FIRE!! SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!!"" The nurse came back with a fire extinguisher and fired it at Johnny.<br/></div>"

Louis was a quiet kid, but his sister had dreams of super-stardom. With their mutant powers being stronger in each other's company, the two were asked to join the superteam Alpha Flight at the age of twenty. Jeanne Marie took them up on the offer and took the name Aurora, however Louis continued his skiing and was somewhat of a local celebrity. <br/><br/>Louis used his knowledge of skiing and wrote a few books for aspiring skiers over the next two years as well as a fictional novel about a group of friends at a ski lodge with a hot tub time machine. His sister became a superhero in her own right, and came out about being a lesbian. Some time after however, Jeanne Marie was killed in the line of duty by a Wendigo which sent Louis into hero-mode. Louis assisted Alpha Flight in taking the monster down but chose not to stay in Canada long. Later, the team would recruit a man who could become a Sasquatch.<br/><br/>Louis took the name Northstar and protected Twin Peaks for a year or so before setting his sights on NYC. Looking for a new book deal after success with the friends and the hot tub, Louis moved to the city while still using his abilities to check on Twin Peaks four or five times a day. Since living in NYC, Northstar has made enemies out of the Wrecking Crew member Bulldozer, Citadel, the mutant mercenary Killspree, and Tempo. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):</span><br/><br/>Northstar has complete control of the kinetic energy his body produces down to the molecules and uses the energy for super speed and flight reaching the limits of near light speeds. His body however can only withstand the speed of Mach 10 [7,400 mph] without more durable protection and eye-wear. Recently he's been noted as producing blinding amounts of light as well as blasts of light energy from his hands after the mutant speed thief Tempo slowed him down, and his strength has increased slightly to match his durability and he can easily lift five tons. His reflexes and agility are also super fast and he can make sharp turns while in flight at his top speeds. <br/><br/>He's still not the greatest hand to hand fighter and lacks any formal training.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.</span><br/><br/>Wendigo War: While checking in on his remaining family in Twin Peaks, WA, a pack of Wendigos attacks the town. With a population of just over fifty-one thousand surrounded by snow and mountains, it might be a little hard for a solo hero to protect everyone... even with super speed. <br/><br/>Big City Showdown: Bulldozer comes back to take his revenge and brought his pals Piledriver and Wrecker from the Wrecking Crew. <br/><br/>Inhuman Adversary: Northstar has a run-in with the Inhuman duplicator Tusk, who was hired by an unknown enemy to take down the hero at a book signing.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):</span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Northstar Sample Post"" type=""button"">Northstar Sample Post [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Louis was still getting used to this new apartment. Spending every dime he was worth to live in Manhattan wasn't an option, so the mutant hero had made a new home for himself in Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn. Most of his stuff was still in the boxes he'd packed it in with his father, Jean Paul. He lived by the ocean on Emmons Avenue now, and on the other side of the harbor was a community college. Lucky for him, he didn't need to continue his education. The adventures of the friends he'd created for his first fictional novel were turned into a live action film a couple years back, and he was still living on the money he'd earned selling the film rights. Louis was also going to get paid for the second film featuring the same characters he had created and their hot tub time machine. <br/><br/>The hero walked out onto his terrace and looked out at the ocean. The seagulls were flying closely behind the fishing boats, eating away at the leftover fish parts thrown back into the water. The smell of the salt water and the extra bit of dew and humidity in the morning was something of an acquired taste. He loved it though, and when the sun came up over the top of the blocky U shaped apartment complex he enjoyed watching all of the women who came out to tan. Mostly Russians, but there were a few more diamonds in the rough. One such diamond was a southern belle from Virginia by the name of Tabitha, with long blonde hair and an accent as beautiful as her looks. When she noticed the dark haired young man glancing down every so often as to not be too conspicuous she yelled up at him on his third floor terrace...<br/><br/>""I SEE YOU UP THERE, LOUIS!"" she yelled with a smile and a laugh, ""YOU EVER GET UNPACKED?""<br/><br/>""I'M ACTUALLY STILL WORKING ON IT!"" he yelled back, generally not drawing this much attention to himself.<br/><br/>This of course didn't matter when he was in as good a shape as he was, and shirtless no less.Even the young pretty Russian girls glanced up a time or two despite their body building boyfriends and mob affiliated family members being around. This didn't matter of course when they wore such big sunglasses. Enjoying the warmth while they still could, by late September the weather would turn cold and then they would get to wear their expensive coats and boots. <br/><br/>It was just under twenty-eight hundred miles back to Twin Peaks, Washington, so any time Louis got home sick it would only take around twenty to thirty minutes to fly there going as fast as Mach 10. It all just depended on which way the wind was blowing and if there was any more severe weather to avoid. Feeling it was as good a time as any to get some fresh air, Louis put on his Northstar suit and bolted out of his terrace door so that nobody would realize yet just who he was. The mutant hero was rich, but nobody was able to put two and two together when he vibrated his molecules enough to mess up any picture or recording devices that caught him in a clearer view. It was a trick he'd learned from some super fast hero in a comic book as a teenager.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Additional Notes:</span> I switched Northstar's secret ID with his adopted father's [just sounded too French for me], made his hometown in the USA and based it on Twin Peaks [the tv series], and I also made him straight and his sister a lesbian as well as his inspiration for becoming a hero. The girl in the sample post is also somebody normally affiliated with the New Mutants and X-Force, and will most likely be his love interest if nobody else has claimed her [it's Boom Boom].<br/><br/>______________________<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

The U shaped building, the mostly Russian families, living across the Bay from a community college, and even trying to get a book deal was my life about a decade or so back. The changes I made to Northstar were mostly to make him more like myself. The part about him being a skier is also easy to write now with a close friend having moved out west to Colorado working in the kitchen at a ski resort. Separating Northstar and his sister was also something that wrote itself, but I wanted her to be his inspiration. I had a couple things I wanted to change for me, and then a couple things were used from his history in the comics, and everything else just poured out of me as I wrote it. <br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">&lt;Snipped quote by The Kid Lantern&gt;<br/><br/>You ninja'd me!<br/><br/>Oh, and definitely.

Can't remember if it was earlier than '08 or not [I thought it was, but <a href=""http://comicvine.com"" target=""_blank"">comicvine.com</a> is down ATM] but it wasn't that great, and until the most recent Uncanny Avengers Johnny Storm was never a member of the Avengers. It was always Jim Hammond. And at this point, really, who HASN'T been an Avenger? The F4 characters may have been considered members, but I can't say there's even one story out there where they played any kind of prominent role on the Avengers. They may have been stand ins, but no F4 member other than Johnny has actually been a member and not wearing a 4 in his suit. At least Wolverine and Storm had the decency to take off the X buckles and badges... hell Rogue is still wearing her last X-Men costume and she's been an Uncanny Avenger now for a couple years...<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

In the 90's the X-Men were popular enough they could've been their own thing and been in the top three with DC and Marvel, now it'd be Star Wars. <br/><br/>And it's not that they can't come up with new characters, the current Ms. Marvel is one of their breakthrough characters. It's just all of the others are reduced to cheap marketing gimmicks, the pressure of cross promoting and making them match up to films and cartoons, etc. Now we have FalCap as well as Steve returning with a new suit and shield, and Sam can't go back to being what he was because there's a new Falcon. It's like they're saying they can't put effort into making the Falcon viable in their universe and the broader scheme of things, but they can if he's using another alias and MO. Which to me is insulting as shit. Rather than boost the status of Valkyrie or Lady Sif, they give the power of Thor to a female because the other two just don't cut it on their own. Spiderman is a convoluted mess so they've brought Spider Gwen, Spidey 2099, and Miles Morales into their mainstream universe [though I think Gwen's back in her own now] on top of branching out with another Spider Woman series and Silk. <br/><br/>I've already mentioned wanting a solo Human Torch series, but other characters/concepts I'd love to see Marvel push would include Sandman, a solo Black Bolt [which would be quite a challenge since he doesn't speak], Cannonball, Capt. Universe, the Imperial Guard, Blue Marvel, Giant Man [no not Ant Man lol], Avengers Academy, Spirits of Vengeance [all the other Ghost Riders throughout time], Marvel Boy, a decent New Warriors, etc...<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Which i know isn't a solo series but due to the small nature of the team they may end up focusing on him quite a bit, especially since a few of the other members have their own solos!<br/><br/>The new Giant Man is making an appearance in the next Astonishing Ant-Man which should be good, as despite his limited appearances, he seems like an alright kind of guy. Who knows, maybe they'll give him a bigger role in the future? <br/><br/>Speaking of which, is Hank still floating through space as Ultron or something?<br/><br/>Really really want to see more of Avengers Academy, although after Avengers Arena/Undercover, I doubt that'll be happening any time soon.

I would have liked to see the X-men and F4 although i can understand why they're not there! Don't get me wrong i loved most of the characters, i just found that elements of game sucked, such as having to waiting ages until free roam was officially unlocked. I didn't really care for the main story too much, since it was one we've all seen before, and i personally hated the use of the movie voice overs as that kind of limited what they could do! Combat seemed annoying to me too, as i'd end up getting swarmed during missions while trying to build stuff, etc, and it took ages to kill them unless you had a super strong character! That's just my opinion on it i guess!</div>"

Sending Fred to the camp turned out to be a good decision, as he quickly grew to love the sport, joining his local team after discovering he had the arm to be a great pitcher. He soon began to dream of  pitching for a major league team one day. Amazingly this dream seemed to come true, with Fred becoming a professional baseball player in the minor leagues after graduating high school, before entering the major leagues a few years later.<br/><br/>However it was during this time that Fred seemed to fall into a bad crowd, and after a while built up a considerable dept with a local loan-shark. In an effort to payback his debts, Fred began taking bribes to loose games so that his loan-shark could bet on him. This plan backfired tremendously however, with Fred getting caught out and suspended from playing baseball any more. His life fell apart after that, with Fred simply staying home all day and refusing to leave the house.<br/><br/>That was when he was approached by  Secret Empire, an international criminal organization who felt that Fred had the potential to be of great use for them due to his world-class pitching skills. Due to his Australian heritage, they aptly named him Boomerang, equipping him with a costume, as well as a collection of razor sharp boomerangs. After robbing a small bank in Brooklyn for the group, Fred wasn't happy with his cut, considering he had done the <span class=""bb-i"">heavy lifting</span>. Due to this, Fred gave an anonymous tip to the police on the group's location and had them arrested.<br/><br/>Keeping the suit, Boomerang soon branched out on his own, performing a variety of minor robberies. He was soon confronted by the <span class=""bb-i"">amazing</span> Spider-Man, and after a short scuffle, found himself behind bars. During his time in prison, he began to plot his revenge against the hero, forming a hatred for the guy. He soon discovered that his cellmate, Herman Schultz, had also been apprehended by Spider-Man, with the two bonding slightly over this. Herman soon suggested that they form some kind of team, in order to more easily complete heists, as well as have more firepower once the heroes turned up. <br/><br/>Returning to the streets of New York, Boomerang and Shocker brought this idea to life, inviting both Hydro-Man and Speed Demon to join them.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities (What can your character do?

I might have a few more story/plot ideas that I put in later. But yeah, here you go! Any stuff I might have overlooked while relating the CS to this thread, please let me know!<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://www.comicmultiverse.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/wpid-dr.-doom-1.png.png""/></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Player Name:</span> TimeMasterX<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character You Wish To Play:</span> Victor Von Doom<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Moral Alignment:</span> Doom<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Affiliation:</span> Latveria<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Character Origin &amp; Backstory:</span> <br/><br/>Victor Von Doom was born in the hills of Latveria in the camp of wandering gypsies, on the night of his birth there was a terrible storm and lightning struck the camp, some said it was a bad omen and talked of casting the newborn babe out but Doom's mother proudly declared that the Gods themselves had failed to kill her son and that no mortal would do any better. He was named 'Victor' to honour his first triumph against the very heavens who wanted him gone.<br/><br/>Victor was raised in the travelling group for a few years, he had few friends except for a girl called Valeria; Victor was also taught basic arcane tricks by his mother and, being a child, he thought nothing of this. It was a happy existence until local soldiers came for his parents. His mother was charged with witchcraft and was executed on the spot, when Victor's father intervened he was shot also. Victor was soon expelled from the travelling gypsies who called him a bad omen once more.<br/><br/>Victor left everyone knew and Latveria itself, heading to America. <br/><br/>Victor spent many years in the states, his mind proved well-suited to learning the sciences and he greedily absorbed all the knowledge he could. The US Military located Victor and co-opted him to work for them developing new weapons for their forces. Unfortunately Victor's skill did not save him from a tragic lab accident. His face was grievously scarred by the incident and Victor left America soon after. He blamed the American need for progress for pushing him too hard and causing his injury and so ensured that all his creations were destroyed before he left.<br/><br/>Doom's life then consisted of travelling, he explored many areas of the world where no one had documented and learned many teachings from the wise figures he found; not limiting his education to (as he saw it) Western science, Victor broadened his understanding of the Arcane and Magyks of the world. It was here he began to refer to himself as 'Doctor' and clad himself in hooded garments to hide his deformity. During this period Doom visited such remote regions as Wakanda, the Savage Land, and even travelled to Hell.  <br/><br/>Seemingly accidentally Doom ended up in Latveria and, seemingly without reason, he launched a coup and took over the kingdom in quick succession. Within weeks he reorganised the country into a thriving and productive nation. He maintained a cordial if distant relationship with the United States, preserving Latveria's independence. For its part, the US publicly decries the dictatorship of Von Doom whilst privately maintaining his diplomatic immunity and purchasing his weapons which have ended up in the US military and the black market alike.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Powers and Abilities:</span><br/><br/>Dr Doom is a highly proficient practitioner of magic making him capable of great feats of sorcery with an strength that is difficult to quantify. He is capable of unleashing his magic in forceful blasts but usually chooses to concentrate his magic on great feats of power such as telekinesis and teleporting.<br/><br/>Doom is categorically a genius, easily of the same calibre of Reed Richards, Tony Stark and others. He has turned his great intellect to revolutionising his homeland of Latveria, which is now a shining beacon of progress (at least on a technological front). In addition, he has created many technological creations such as his robotic copies, the Doombots and more advanced weaponry than has been seen anywhere other than Stark Technologies. <br/><br/>Doom's armour is well known and the monarch is never seen without it, capable of withstanding a beating from multiple super-powered beings and the harshest of conditions, the armour functions as protection, a survival suit and an arsenal of deadly weaponry all on its own and its casing has been protected with the most powerful magical wards that Doom can place. His armour is capable of unleashing deadly bolts or rays of electricity and has a powerful inbuilt forcefield. Doom often carries multiple handheld weapons and gadgets on his person for all sorts of scenarios.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Story Arcs:</span><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Superhuman Arms Race:</span></span> Doom offers asylum in Latveria to all superpowered criminals, will he be able to maintain his rule when his new subjects stick to their nefarious ways?  <br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">In Doom we Trust:</span></span> An underground resistance is spreading fear and anti-Doom propaganda in Latveria, the cult of personality Doom has cultivated is cracking and revolution is in the air! Who is behind this outrage? Can Doom defend his throne? <br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Doom's Day:</span> </span>As a prominent world leader Doom often graces other nations with his presence. On a trip to celebrate the opening of the first Latverian embassy in America Doom is ambushed. No way out, no backup, can Doom survive the siege?<br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Can a Doombot Die?</span></span> A rogue Doombot is on the loose! Believing itself to be alive and containing the memories and personality of its creator, it has the potential to be an invaluable tool against the original Doom. Who will discover it? Can you trust a robot? Can a doombot <span class=""bb-i"">truly</span> die?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Sample Post:</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Castle Doom, Latveria</span><br/>The shadows shook when Doctor Doom returned. As though anyone hiding within had taken a breath to steady their nerves at the sight. But no one was hiding in the shadows, no one would dare, Doctor Doom was back and no one could hide.<br/><br/>Doom knew the castle as intimately as he knew each and every inch of his armour, they were both made to his exacting specifications. Unforgiving and cold. <br/><br/>Doom had barely walked through the great doors of Castle Doom's entrance when the servants arrived. They busied themselves with the task of taking their master's cape, checking his armour for any imperfections and providing updates on anything, anything at all that had occurred in Latveria while he had been away. Doom barely noticed them anymore, they were performing their duty and doing so well, that was all that was needed. Not waiting for them to keep pace or remove themselves from his path Doom strode through the small mass of menials and made his way purposefully to his throne room.<br/><br/>The throne of Latveria was a marvel of technology, like all Doom's creations, it allowed a single person to activate and use all the means Doom had installed to run Latveria. From that throne one could quite literally control the entire country with the touch of a button. Like a great deal of the technology in Latveria the throne was imprinted to Doom's DNA and quite fatal to any who attempted to gain access without Doom's express permission. <br/><br/>Which is why Doom was beyond stunned to see another figure sitting atop it.<br/><br/>The figure was facing away from the room's entrance towards a giant screen that illuminated the room. The screen showed a very detailed map of New York, the very place that Doom had returned from; as with all Doom's surveillance the map showed key points of interest labelling the city along with key and vulnerable features marked in notable hues. The indication was clear, whoever was trespassing in Doom's throne was clearly intending to use the resources he had accrued in a pointless attack on the American city.<br/><br/>The figure gestured and the large throne swivelled to face Doom. The figure on the throne wore Doom's signature armour, green garments and even his iconic mask accompanied by a green hood. In short, Doom was facing one of his own Doombots. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/3363a9ff4036d8232fc5cdc852bdbd34/tumblr_o3316m3L0V1svfe0so1_400.png""/></div><br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'What is this?'</span></font> Doom's voice was cold and held the metallic tint of a voice obscured by a mask.<br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Excellent, you have returned. Update me on the progress of our work in New York.'</span></font> The sitting copy's voice was richer and resonated with more force than Doom's own, a clear sign of a duplicate.<br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'Rise, you have forgotten your place.'</span></font><br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'I-'</span></font> The copy appeared momentarily confused. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'You dare question me?'</span></font><br/><br/>This was always happening, Doom mused under his mask, Doombots allowing their programming to make them forget that they were Doombots in the first place. Clearly a problem he would need to address. <br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'I order you now, speak! Detail the progress!'</span></font> <br/><br/><font color=""#00fa9a""><span class=""bb-i"">'Enough of this charade.'</span></font> Doom raised his arm, preparing to unleash an electronic pulse that would render the Doombot incapacitated. The Doombot did not move, it would be unable to anyway, Doom had installed many safeguards in his creations including programming that rendered them unable to attack their creator.<br/><br/>Doom activated the electronic pulse and...nothing happened. He tried again and still nothing. Now he was genuinely mystified; perhaps his armour had been hacked somehow or some virus that interfered with his weaponry.<br/><br/>Indeed, Doom was so confused that he didn't notice the copy rise from the throne and raise his arm in exactly the same fashion that Doom himself had done moments before. <br/>What Doom did notice was the shock of electricity that ran through every nerve in his body, his armour shut down immediately and he felt himself fall to the floor, numbness setting in. His senses dulled and he found it difficult to see through his mask. <br/><br/>But he heard the laughter.<br/><br/>The copy stood before him. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'You, like many before you,'</span></font> it spoke drily, <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'are just another failure born of Doom's brilliance.'</span></font> <br/><br/>With that, the standing Doom, for that was who he was, reached down and wrenched the head of the Doombot, for that was what it was, from it's shoulders. He held it aloft, almost fondly, before turning and striding back to his throne. With a simple movement he deposited the Doombot's head onto an arm of the throne. <br/><br/>Immediately information of the Doombot's progress filled the screen, days of work and many activities were compartmentalised and given order in nanoseconds before appearing on the large screen. Doom analysed the information in silence before rising once again from his throne and beckoning to Boris. The old man stood to one side of the room, out of distance of any potential danger that the Doombot could have caused, at Doom's gesture he approached the throne.<br/><br/>'My Lord?'<br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'The time has come Boris, prepare my private jet.'</span></font> Victor Von Doom surveyed his map one last time and knew that the pieces had all fallen into place. <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Today we fly for New York!'</span></font> <br/><br/>Boris nodded hurriedly and turned to leave. <br/><br/><font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'And Boris,'</span></font> the old man stopped, Doom gestured to the ruined Doombot on the floor, <font color=""#adff2f""><span class=""bb-b"">'Have that cleaned up.'</span></font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/avengersalliancetactics/images/a/ae/Drdoom.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140524153454""/></div></div>"

I really don't care whether someone uses them or not (although I would ask them to use something that doesn't hurt the eyes if they do use them).  However, if we are comparing this roleplay to a book, it would be more apt to compare it to 10+ books that have been put together (and I don't mean book after book).  This ""megabook"" would take the first couple pages from book A, then a couple from book B, then a couple more from book C, then maybe the next couple pages from book A, and so on.</div>"

After all we all want to improve as writers in some degree otherwise why have our work be in advanced RPs where a lot is expected.  A book was more an example since for it to even be published a lot goes into it (Unless you're a hack Twilight fan fic writer who happened to redo their story just a little and somehow became a hit because housewives wanted classy wank material.)<br/><br/>Point is I don't see how using colors can really help someone's writing skills out long term.<br/><br/>(I'm tired and probably rambling...)</div>"

Books and roleplayers are different media in the sense that one is printed (or usually printed) while roleplays (at least play-by-post ones) are electronic.  Color ink by nature is more expensive to use than pure black ink.  Here, we don't have to worry about that.  I don't mind it if it is not being used as a crutch.</div>"

The thick black lines are there for no reason just to make it seem more original, and that makes no sense to me when half the time you can't even make out the actual web lines in the suit. I noticed the lack of his traditional belt and what appears to be now a utility belt of sorts, possibly with web cartridges for his web shooters. We're supposed to get 3 suits for Spidey in this one film? Dude was just cast a few months ago and already his character will have as many suits as Ironman had in his first film... but in a movie that's SUPPOSED to be about Capt. America? I can see the pre-Spidey suit as he's being recruited for Team Stark, the one we've seen, and then possibly an Iron Spider suit he probably won't wear when he inevitably changes sides by the end of the film. <br/><br/>I could care less about Spiderman in this film universe, I'm more interested in what will be done with Cap from here on out. He originally died at the end of Civil War in the comics, and was replaced as Capt. America by Bucky/Winter Soldier. In the comics now, Falcon has been the new Cap for awhile... and Chris Evans wants to do more films with Marvel so now he's less likely to die. It was reported the guy playing Bucky turned down a Once Upon a Time spinn-off series featuring his portrayal of the Mad Hatter because he was under the impression he'd eventually replace Evans as Cap. Now that Falcon is turning heads in the comics and in the films as well... somebody may go home pissed off...</div></div><br/><br/>Still don't see why everybody was using hider tags.

Now that the trailer has been out for a couple days, it's probably safe to assume spoilers are not required.<br/><br/>I am honestly looking forward to Civil War more than Batman v Superman.  Obviously I am biased towards Marvel (and Spider-Man being in the MCU).  I just don't have as much faith in DC's film division as I do in Marvel's.  In the past decade or so, unless it had Batman in it, the film hasn't always been stellar (although I will admit that, by box office numbers, the same can be said about Marvel and Iron Man).  Sure, everything that Marvel makes isn't always golden, but it is telling when one company can capitalize on lesser known/ less popular properties (Guardians of the Galaxy) while the other still hasn't been able to get out of their ""Big 3"".  At least for me, DC needs to prove that they can make a movie without Batman.<br/><br/>DC's television series, on the other hand, are quite superb.</div>"

I would <span class=""bb-i"">heavily</span> doubt we'd see a Iron Spidey suit unless it was at the end as a teaser. It'd just be silly I think BUT, we could always see a <span class=""bb-i"">black</span> Spider-man suit like at the end of Civil War. In terms of Bucky/FalCap/SteveCap in the end it's upto the studio. Sure Chris Evans wants to continue on the role, but Robert Downey Jr likes his role as Iron Man too, doesn't mean they're going to keep him on forever unless they know for a fact their movies are going to continue raking in as much money because actors get paid and extortionate amount (Always annoys me when actors preach for charity, or say they <span class=""bb-i"">love</span> a role. a) You could donate more to charity than I ever could dipshit and b) if you love it so much why are you wanting paid for it?). So in the end it depends whether or not Disney/Marvel want to keep going with the more expensive options or usher in a new age of heroes.<br/><br/>To be fair they could probably do films on smaller heroes that later ties into the Avengers with all the big names, but it really depends on how they want to do it. In terms of TV-Verse I do like their netflix shows (As it's a way for them to give heroes that should be darker, a darker tone without jumping on the R-Rated bandwagon). DC... no. I like <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a> am not really looking forward to BvS. Okay I could live with it being Batmans first appearance in the DC-Cinematic Universe as everyone knows his origin story by now, and we've got an older Batman.<br/><br/>Though Flash? Wonder Woman? Even read somewhere they may attempt to shoehorn Aquaman in. I will be the first to admit that DC have some great characters, but they're trying to catch up with Marvel too fast and it's going to shoot themselves in the foot from a story telling standpoint. Okay maybe these heroes don't need an Origin story movie anymore, but they do need introduced. They're trying to throw everything together just to aim for the Justice League and I think it's going to end up a mess. They would have been better to do a BvS (But with a smaller villain than Doomsday), Flash, Wonder Woman, Aquaman (not in that order), Dawn of Justice (Which is essentially the first Justice League Film) then went from there.<br/><br/>I think another thing that is grinding my gears with DC is they're moving away from the comic theme. Marvel can have darker stories while keeping a very comic-book feel. Winter Soldier proved that, Incredible Hulk proved that (it wasn't darker but it was a pretty heavy film). DC is going dark but I feel its taking some of the fun out of it from it being from a comic. I don't care that Superman killed, or that half the city was destroyed or whatever. It's the way they did it and made it so... dark that I don't like. Come on, lighten up a bit. Take the filter off. It's a <span class=""bb-i"">comic book movie</span> for christ sake. That's like someone remaking Winnie the Pooh and making him an emo. That said, some comic book movies deserve to be darker/rougher. I.E. Deadpool is good being an R-Rated and Batman works as a dark movie.<br/><br/>That said, <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a> has a point. The DC TV-verse is on point.</div>"

I fear that Batman v. Superman might suffer the same as the Amazing Spider-Man 2 (or even Age of Ultron): trying to set up an equivalent ""MCU"" in the DC Universe.  Marvel did: Iron Man, Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America, Avengers.  Sony did: ASM, ASM2.  DC is doing: Man of Steel, Batman v. Superman.  The only things I can think of off the top of my head that BvS has over ASM2 is that it has 1) Batman, a proven successful comic character in film adaptions (although the same could be said of Spider-Man before the ASM movies), 2) the novelty of Batman and Superman in the same film, and 3) Age of Ultron did well, despite suffering the ""this movie is basically a preview for the next five movies"" syndrome.<br/><br/>Edit: We're not trying to rain on your parade, KidLantern.

When Spider-Man 1-3 came out, it didn't really have much competition in the superhero genre.  If you were going to see another super-hero movie, you were going to go back to Spider-Man 1-3.  However, the Amazing Spider-Man series actually had some competition.  Amazing Spider-Man had Avengers and Dark Knight Rises.  Amazing Spider-Man 2 had Captain America: Winter Soldier, Days of Future Past, and Guardians of the Galaxy.  Were you going to go back to Spider-Man or see one of the other movies that might be better?  The answer is obvious.</div>"

Apparently it's said that Tim(?) Holland is the same to Parker as Downey Jr. and Chris Evans are to their roles so that's something. I just hope for once we get the nerdy/outcast Parker and the witty quickmouthed Spidey. With Toby Maguires portrayal I felt we got a good Parker, but not the best Spidey. With Andrew Garfields I felt we got a really good Spidey but not the best parker.<br/><br/>I think they're doing the right thing with skipping the origin story and having him younger. A lot of people are saying ""We've seen him go through high school! I want him to be an <span class=""bb-i"">Avenger</span> yadayadayada.""<br/><br/>Though I think you can't change the point he got his powers, he got them in High School so if you wanted an older Spidey it wouldn't quite fit in. I like the idea of him being younger and it lets them put a new twist on it. It also gives them a nice focus for the enxt couple of phases in terms of movies, as he won't be getting paid anywhere near as much as the big shots so he'll be sticking around.</div>"

Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Capt. Marvel and the Inhumans have to be good for me to believe Marvel can do no wrong. Ironman 2 and 3 were picked apart by fans the same as Thor 2, Ed Norton getting replaced as Banner ticked me off personally, and really Avengers and the GotG film are the only ones that have really had much acclaim. Winter Soldier was a hit, but only because it was seen as Avengers 1.5 and had a larger cast that also saw the introduction of Falcon. <br/><br/>This is just my opinion, but when you HAVE to introduce another handful of characters in a film because the central character isn't enough to draw interest... then something's wrong. Connected film universe or not, Capt. America should be able to work in film without Falcon, Bucky, Spiderman, the Avengers, etc. all showing up and taking time away from the film's star. I was actually more excited during their hoax about the movie titles reveal and the next film being 'Capt. America: Serpent Society' than I was for the Civil War announcement just cause I knew Cap would get more screen time. B v S is supposed to start laying the foundation for the Justice League, but I think a movie with just the two of them could've been just as good. <br/><br/>As for B v S, Aquaman is already said to be appearing [and in the first line of toys to boot] as well as Cyborg to some extent [probably still playing football] and *possibly* the Flash. Something I read months ago claimed most of them or even all of them would just be on computer screens as Lex is studying them all along with Superman. In that context I don't think DC/WB is putting too much into one film. And it's always been their plan to make the team up film first then go into solo flicks, even back in '08 when Justice League: Mortal began production. <br/><br/>And <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sep"">@Sep</a> and <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/dedonus"">@Dedonus</a> I know you guys aren't trying to rain on my parade, I just don't think the Marvel MCU is as flawless as a lot of people and that the Spiderman flicks have way more potential than Sony realizes.

And this is coming from someone who liked the Amazing Spider-Man series of films (I have no idea how anyone could rate ASM2 under SM3.  That's beyond me).  Like I already said, the original Spider-Man trilogy was produced in a very competition-lacking environment.  Sony thought that they could just make a Spider-Man movie and it be a smashing success.  This really shows itself in ASM2, where Sony tried to market that movie to death.<br/><br/>Sometimes, it takes fresh minds to make something better.  You cannot tell me that the Fantastic Four would be in better hands with Marvel than with Fox, especially after the embarrassment that F4 was (although I didn't see it because I already assumed it was going to be a train wreck).  I think it is the same with Spider-Man (although definitely not as extreme as a case as Fantastic Four).  Spider-Man needed fresh minds on his projects because obviously what Sony was doing with him was not working.<br/><br/>Sure, I would love to see the DC movies do well.  This can only bring healthy competition between the two companies.  It will keep the ""creative"" fire going under Marvel so that they don't become lazy and lose their touch.  And while it is true that not everything that Marvel makes is ""golden"", at the same time, except for the Incredible Hulk (which probably is a better movie than the two ones I will list), Marvel hasn't had a movie <span class=""bb-b"">so</span> bad like Green Lantern or Fantastic Four (the reboot).  Even Man of Steel was polarizing. Some liked it, other did not (unfortunately I am one of the latter).</div>"

Part of the agreement was Sony would get to use two of the Avengers' characters. More than likely one will be Ironman since Stark is now Spiderman's mentor for some idiotic reason [like the Ult. Spiderman toon], and either RDJ will get paid ridiculous amounts of cash to be the glue in the two universes... or we get a new actor cast as Ironman by then. So essentially I see this gamble as either being great for Spiderman, or horrible for everyone involved if it involves recasting after three phases of films. And with talks of a Venom film completely separated from the rest of the Spiderverse... just seems like Sony wants multiple films going at the same time. Before they do something stupid like that you'd think they'd bust out the Spider-Clone[s] in a movie or do something with Spiderman 2099...<br/><br/>I'm interested to see how the DC films pan out schedule wise since the guy playing Cyborg had meetings with WB after the release date of Black Panther was announced. It's also said a solo Batman film could come before Justice League depending on how B v S does in theaters, though after the film schedules were released it was already noted solo Batman and Superman films were going to happen as well they just didn't know where in the timeline. <br/><br/>Watchmen is probably my favorite recent superhero film because of the altered history and 80's setting. Incredible Hulk is probably up there too. I get that RDJ had a hand in Howard being replaced as War Machine [it got RDJ and extra $7 million somehow], but Norton actually wanted to continue playing Banner and there was a big stink about it for several months after it was stated he wouldn't be in Avengers. One of the rumors was he was still 'too big a name' and the other actors didn't want to be outshined. You bet your ass they would've been too. LOL<br/><br/>Fant4stic was horrible from the development stages, and GL was a convoluted mess and a big waste of money with $200 million thrown out there for marketing. I felt Reynolds was too desperate to be the actual star in a comic film at the time and had already been attached to a Flash film and was already in the Marvel loop having played Hannibal King in Blade Trinity and later as Deadpool in Origins. The original pitch for GL had something closer to the Emerald Dawn origin for Hal from the early 90's and featured the villain Legion. Would've been a much better film IMHO.<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

I doubt it but that's the only thing I could think of that wouldn't completely suck balls. No way it'd be Flash Thompson though if he's still 16-18 and still in high school with Peter Parker... maybe they'll just use Eddie Brock since basically nobody remembers his time as Venom now....<br/><br/>If I were behind the Spiderman films I'd lay the groundwork for the clone saga in part one with a villain like the Shocker showing up and Scarlet Spider at the very end revealing himself as a clone to the viewers. Part two would be Spiderman vs Scarlet Spider vs Kaine, and in the end one or two of them vs the Jackal. For part three I'd use Morbius, and have Peter adopt a black costume for being more stealthy in the sewers where Morbius is presumably based. At some point we'd get a glimpse of a live action Man-Spider be it nightmare or pre-vampire Morbius himself while still tampering with Parker's DNA. <br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

I thought it was interesting playing the invasion from different starting points wth the other scenes/levels that are added. Haven't played it in a couple weeks though and only unlocked maybe 25 characters or so and I'm around 12 percent done. I was excited to see Jim Hammond/Torch so early on and in his sweet new SHIELD suit and making old person jokes. This Detroit Steel guy is pretty badass too.

However, tragedy would soon arrive at the doorsteps of the Hardy residence when Felicia’s father, Walter Hardy, had to flee for the safety of his family. This of course was due to the fact that in his past Walter Hardy had been known as a grifter, thief, and con artist who was known internationally as “The Black Cat”. Wanted for his crimes over his storied career of heists and cons, Walter’s crowning achievement was the theft of an experimental super soldier process— a job he never finished due to a moral turnaround at last minute thus hiding away the contents of the process in one of his many hideaways. Unfortunately for Walter, The Kingpin’s criminal syndicate were on the trail of one of his many identities and fearing for his family’s life he disappeared as he began to lead his pursuers on a wild goose chase for over a decade.<br/><br/>However, as noble as this may have been it was not without consequences. Felicia was distraught throughout her youth which led to act out in angst, sadness, and anger. Despite the foundation of her childhood friends such as Mary Jane Watson, Felicia’s knack for getting into trouble outweighed her friend’s positive influence. Felicia coped with picking locks, using her wit to charm others, and getting into rough fights throughout junior high with other girls. Her mother Lydia became distant as she threatened her daughter with the consequences of juvenile activities and the fact that Felicia was turning into a misguided version of Walter— a fact that only made her mother impose more rules and threats by the time she made it into high school. Mary Jane tried to keep in touch as the two friends ended up at different high schools but it seemed Felicia was on a downward spiral. <br/><br/>However, one night over the summer after her freshmen year Felicia found herself ensnared. The Kingpin’s associates had finally made the connection with The Black Cat and Lydia Hardy. In order to flush out Walter they extorted Felicia’s mother and kidnapped Felicia. The truth behind her father’s disappeared was revealed and Felicia found her whole world destroyed. As her father came out of hiding to save his daughter with super soldier serum in hand something wicked happened. In order to ensure Walter’s loyalty and that he wasn’t giving them a dummy serum they did the one thing they could that made sure of the authenticity— they tested it on Felicia. Felicia’s next moments were pain, agony, and mutation. Felicia refused to die from the agonizing process.<br/><br/>Following the incident Felicia found herself intimidating in being trained to work for these criminals by the threat of them killing her father if she sought help, attempted action against them, or acted unfavorably. Felicia Hardy would become the second Black Cat and would serve them as their “acquisition specialist”. <br/><br/>Returning home to her mother, things evened out. However, things grew tenser at home as her mother starts to date widowed police detective, Harrison Thompson. She finds a friendship with his daughter, Jesse – and a rivalry with his son, Flash. But Felicia carried on… and her story continues. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#787878""><span class=""bb-b"">Artificially Enhanced Physiology</span></font> – Felicia has been modified due to a “super soldier serum” that has given her strength, speed, durability, agility, reflexes, and senses to a high level that is either peak human or near-superhuman.

Even as a young boy, Brian felt he knew what he wanted to do with his life, he wanted emulate his hero and serve his country. Fate had other plans, however, and Brian's start in life was nowhere near as privileged and wealthy as his hero's; Lord James Falsworth was the oldest son of one of Britain's oldest noble houses while Brian was just an orphan from east London. Still, he did his best in school and tried to fight for justice like Union Jack. By the age of thirteen, he had been arrested several times, twice for donning a mask and attacking criminals.<br/><br/>At this time in his life he came to the attention of Lord Falsworth, the secret identity of Union Jack. His lordship was alerted by some old contacts when Brian was threatened with a prison sentence if he didn't desist in his activities. Lord Falsworth took the young man under his wing, adopting him, training him to control his temper and to fight like Union Jack. After some years, he revealed his secret to Brian and asked if he would be willing to don the mask and continue the legacy. Brian gladly accepted and has been Union Jack and an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. since then. While being imprisoned by A.I.M., Brian encountered a man named Professor Eric Schmitt, a Bio-Chemist who had spent his life trying to replicate the Super Soldier Serum used to turn Steve Rogers into Captain America. In order to escape, Brian drank the formula and underwent intense changes. When he recovered, he was now somewhere between the physical capabilities of Captain America and a peak fitness human being.</div></div><br/>Powers and Abilities:<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Super Soldier Serum Derivative"" type=""button"">Super Soldier Serum Derivative [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">In short, Brian gained enhanced speed, strength, endurance and durability granted from Professor Eric Schmitt's Super Soldier Serum derivative. He has not possessed theses powers long enough for it to be known whether this version of the SSS will affect the speed at which he ages. Schmitt's attempt to recreate Erskine's serum was not entirely successful, however, and Brian cannot match Steve Roger's physical abilities, putting him somewhere between the peak abilities of a normal human and Captain America.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Learned Abilities"" type=""button"">Learned Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Taught in hand to hand combat and in the use of WWII era weapons by Lord James Falsworth, Brian has been receiving combat training since he was thirteen years old. His training was complimented later when he joined S.H.I.E.L.D., who gave him more advanced lessons in combat. He has also now been working as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. for almost ten years, gaining experience in a variety of theatres of war.</div></div><br/>Sample Story Arcs:<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Samples"" type=""button"">Samples [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">- <span class=""bb-b"">Inheriting the mantle</span><br/>As the second hero to bear the name and mantle of Union Jack, Brian Falsworth has big shoes to fill. Lord James Montgomery Falsworth, his father, was the first man to use the title, when he fought alongside Steve Rogers in WWII and helped defeat Hydra. He was just a man who chose to fight for what he saw as right, without special powers or enhanced abilities. For Lord Falsworth, the mask was a symbol of what he stood for and what he fought to protect. It meant a great deal to him and just as much to the men who fought alongside him. Brian must not only serve his country as best as he is able but also live up to the family name and the inherited title.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Same sort of themes as the second Captain America film, only using the different views consecutive generations have on doing the right thing rather than how the world has changed. I'd like to use Brian as a secretive agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who goes on undercover OPs, rather than a frontline hero like Lord James Falsworth and see how the public would react to news that the mantle of a hero and veteran of WWII is being used by someone who participates in arguably illegal operations.</span><br/><br/>- <span class=""bb-b"">The Return of Baron Blood</span><br/>Legacy, it affects every hero. What you create, what lasts and what you leave behind. Unfortunately, many heroes leave villains behind them, villains that aren't content with their rivals retirement or death. Those villains return again and again, tearing down whatever the hero has built in an attempt to achieve a final victory over their opponent. The first Union Jack's greatest enemy was a vampire named Baron Blood, a vampire who seemingly perished with the third Reich. Should he return, it would be Brian's greatest test to date.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">So Baron Blood is actually the original Union Jack's (James Falsworth) younger brother, John Falsworth because that's how Silver Age comics worked. He was 'killed' by Kraven the Hunter (sort of) at the end of WWII but was eventually resurrected by Dracula's servants in the 616 Universe. Having him return in this universe would be interesting, particularly if used in concert with the Red Skull or the return of Hydra.</span></div></div></div></div><br/></div>"

I have seven characters I was thinking of using, a few of them intertwine with your already established characters so I was thinking maybe you guys could help me out and decide?<br/><br/>1)Namor- my idea was to have him be a king at the height of his rule, but then through a coup , he's overthrown and banished to the surface world. Here, he tries to make himself a new empire, but he's got a long road ahead of him.<br/><br/>Considering he's got a lot of connection with Fantastic Four characters, I'll leave up to you guys to judge him.<br/><br/>2)Magneto- Considering that there are already a few X-Men individuals, I can form him around their criteria.<br/><br/>3)Punisher- he's my all time favorite character, and I've been writing some extensive fan fiction on him for awhile. I was thinking of changing him to an 18 year old and making him the bastard son, or love child of a previous Punisher who has since died.<br/><br/>4)Iron Fist- I have ideas, but I'm not fully fleshed out with him yet. Part of me was thinking of starting him out as Green Hornet type and he eventually evolves into his own Kato.<br/><br/>5)Kingpin- I would love to do Kingpin, I was thinking that he's just an average schmuck who works at cubicle and has an average family life during the day. During the night, he is a ruthless and calculative criminal enterprise leader, and he struggles to keep the two lives seperate. This would be set in Wilson's early years.<br/><br/>6)Black Knight- I was considering this uptight asshole who's got nothing going for him, and he's basically one bad day away from shooting up a mall. Then he finds a package delivered to his apartment and comes into contact with the Ebony Blade, and becomes the Black Knight and his life starts to take a turn for the better.<br/><br/>7)Ultron- I was thinking of an early developed Ultron who is born into the world today and attempts to learn everything he can to help better his life, and those around him. Soon he goes from a sentient computer program with benevolent and innocent ideals to a crude and malformed mechanical vessel so that he can experience this amazing world for himself, but things go south fast and that sends him down the path of the genocidal robot we all know and love.</div>"

When it comes to the criminal underground, Fisk has made a name for himself uniting a small army of gangs and underground organizations. From the Owl Gang to the Hand to the Russian Mob, many of the crime organization on the eastern shores of the U.S. pay their respects to the unified banner of Fisk's coalition. Whilst Fisk's empire is not as rugged as it once was, his name still buys respect in the criminal underworld, and many gangs would be happy to associate themselves with him. Fisk's illegal misgivings are masked by his legitimate investments in business ventures through Fisk enterprises. Notably, Fisk is also rumored to have ties to Hydra, but the validity of these rumors is in dispute. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">ORIGINS / BACKSTORY</span></span><br/>Wilson was the son of a New Jersey native, a man who was born and raised in New Jersey by his two Italian parents. It was on a hot and humid New York summer night that Bill Fisk met his soon to be wife in a hazy, smoke-filled hookah bar. Marlena Fisk swore that Bill was a good man when she met him; a genuine sweetheart. But as time passed so did his affection and warmth, with each passing year one another becoming more and more displeased by their entrapment in a marriage in which neither of them felt endearment any longer. Bill was fast becoming a dire alcoholic, and doctors discovered Marlena was slowly becoming schizophrenic, showing primitive stages of the disorder. The only thing that kept them together, the last threads binding them, was their child, Wilson. As Bill Fisk's alcoholism grew, his abuse on his family grew with it; both verbally and physically. Rows plagued the house, and Wilson's father's unpredictable rage and volatility ruled his life. His mother grew more and more schizophrenic as Wilson entered his early and premature teenage years. His father refused her care -- <span class=""bb-i"">""Do you know how much money that slick shit cost?""</span> -- and her condition grew worse.<br/><br/>It was muggy and sultry August evening when Wilson was 15, when his father came home. He had spent the last of his cash on liquors and gambling it all away at Italian owned casinos. In a spurt of ill-tempered fury, his father began battering his mother with unkempt anger. Fisk attempted to block out the sounds, cowering in his room. However, it was in vain; the screams of his schizophrenic mother, who could no longer make sense of the world around herself, slithered their way into Wilson's head. It was this time, the pre-natal X-Gene, oft said to manifest itself to the beholder of the gene in situations of high stress, emerged within Wilson's body. His muscles swelled, his bones expanded, and his height sprung upward. The gene had mutated him into a giant of a man, seven feet of pure and unadulterated brawn. With anger in his heart for the years spent under the iron fist of his abusive father, he beat him to death with his bare hands, half in act of protecting his defenseless mother and half in act of pent up rage against years of oppression and angst. His mother, no longer recognizing her hulk of a son, cowered in fear from him, any sight of him conjuring up visions of the bloodbath of that fateful August eve. Wilson fled out of state, partly in escape from the law, but also to escape the deep remorse and sorrow he linked with his family home.<br/><br/>Perhaps by chance, after a long series of short stints in other cities, Wilson Fisk found himself in the Bronx at the age of eighteen. He may have been just old enough to grow bare whiskers on his chin, but his freakish size and strength offered the luxury of being able to mask his age. Fisk always believed as a kid that strength and power was the key to affording others' respect. Never had the statement rang as true as it did in the underbelly of the Bronx. Wilson used his gifts of considerable size and strength as a weapon, but also as a universal tool to unite those under him. He began a small gang, after all, all criminal masterminds have humble beginnings. He slowly grew his group, whether it be through large recruitment campaigns or whether it be through the assimilation of other gangs, whose facets would be absorbed into Fisk's gang. Slowly but surely, Fisk was building a criminal empire. Fisk's rise to the king of the criminal underworld was slow and steady; it's like they say, the road to top of the mountain is steep and prolonged, but the way down is a sharp, fast drop. <br/><br/>Fisk was atop his game, entrenched in his prime if you will, when he met his wife Vanessa. She was a foreign woman, and her perfume gave off a slight hint of oak. She had a mysterious aura to her, one that ultimately became Fisk's weak spot, as he met the love of his life. He met her at an art gallery at which she worked, courting her through his gentility and chivalry. There was a time when Wilson Fisk believed he needed no one else to be content; that he was happy alone. His perception changed as his love for his wife Vanessa grew, and he began to know the true depths of the emotions he was capable of. Emotions which he had suppressed since his childhood, which he had locked away, in an attempt to make himself not feel for anyone anymore. It should be no surprise that when his wife grew sick with something the doctors could not diagnose, Fisk's heart was decimated. He left his crime empire in the hands of one of his associates, and devoted his time to his wife. He threw large amounts of assets and sums of money at doctors, in order to figure out what was causing her illness. A doctor named Dr. Zhoria diagnosed and cured his wife almost miraculously, and in return Fisk promised that if Zhoria ever needed anything Fisk would be at his beckon call.<br/><br/>Rival gangs saw this as a moment of weakness. They saw a crown on pedestal, sitting there, beckoning to be taken. Like tide on a beach, Fisk's empire was receding in his absence. But the Kingpin of Crime was back, and ready to take back what was rightfully his.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">POWERS / ABILITIES</span></span><br/>The X-Gene in Wilson has afforded him tremendous size and strength. He has become 450 lbs of pure muscle. His stature gives off the visual of blubber; however, his body weight is not as it seems. He can lift things from cars, trucks, and buses to things as large as boulders. He is able to hurl such objects, although not without his fair share of strain. Things such as battleships or other large aircrafts are out of Fisk's weight range, and he is incapable of lifting them. Coupled with his enhanced strength, is his enhanced durability and endurance levels. His ability to resist external blows and attacks his heightened, his thick skin and muscle acting as a pseudo-armor of sorts. This mutation affords him some agility, not superhuman agility, but more agility than you would expect from 7 foot 400 pounder. X-Gene aside, Fisk has many skills, attributes and tools which he can put to work. He is a skilled martial artist, trained in the forms of Sumo. Fisk is multilingual as well. He knows English, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, and Mandarin. Fisk often carries a diamond encrusted walking stick which contains a concealed laser beam piece that fires a quick pulse of 300 watts, which, in case you were wondering, is about enough energy to vaporize a handgun into ashes. Fisk's diamond stickpin also contains a small, highly compressed container of sleeping gas which is effective when fired directly into an opponent's face at close range. <br/><br/>But perhaps his most dangerous weapon is his influence in the criminal underworld. His criminal empire is vast, and with it comes an eclectic collection of hitmen, middlemen, thugs, weapons, and allies. Fisk has associates in every alleyway, paid cops in every division, bribed judges in every court, and contacts in every organization. There's a reason they call him the Kingpin of Crime -- it's because New York is <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> kingdom. Many gangs in New York rally under Fisk's banner, whether it be the fierce Russians or whether it be the noble Japanese, and it's this aspect of the Kingpin that makes him all the more dangerous.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">SAMPLE ARCS</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Return of the King:</span> After spending a year tending to his sick wife, Wilson Fisk is back in the game of crime, and he is not happy to see his kingdom being ransacked by bandits and marauders. Fisk begin's the ""hero's quest"" to retake his dominion, and reinstate his monopoly on crime. (I'll most likely be using this as my introduction arc)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">The King's Men:</span> Fisk amasses a coalition of super villains (whoever is interested) to participate in a crime wave the likes of which New York has never seen. Where there is smoke there is fire, and Fisk uses the distraction of a conglomeration of super villains wrecking down town New York to steal a live Warhead from a military base.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">All That Glitters is not Gold:</span> Fisk grooms his prized burglar (The Black Cat) and a group of highly skilled thieves to break into Fort Knox. Oddly enough, it is not the gold that Fisk wants from the government treasury, it is the weapon of mass destruction which the government has tried to stash away inside the fortified walls.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">SAMPLE POST</span></span><br/><br/>Fisk sat at the refined mahogany oak desk which had been custom made for his height. Behind him, a penthouse view unfolded like a pop-up book through large, pristine glass windows. The city churned below, the sounds of engines, car horns, and people fluttering up, barely gasping it's way to audibility so high above the ground. Fisk twirled a pen between his fore finger and thumb as he stared coldly at the man who sat across from him. The man was wearing pinstripe suit and pants, a red tie, and a midnight black fedora. The man's jet black hair was slicked to his left, and a deep gash ran through his cheek.  <br/><br/>""Money is a callous thing, is it not? Mr... Mr. Belcastro was it, yes?"" began Fisk, his voice scratchy like gravel on concrete.<br/><br/>""Uh, yes sir-r-r-r,"" stammered the Italian ""businessman"" with a heavy accent.<br/><br/>""I find that so often it has so much power. It's rather odd when you think about it, that a scrap of green paper holds so much leverage. It has the leverage to turn a man of principles into a man of lies and deceit. Honor and respect smolder, brotherhood and fellowship are cast aside... and it's all just for something as inconsequential as a slip of paper. You wouldn't happen to know what I am talking about, would you?"" said Fisk. <br/><br/>Before the man had a chance to respond, Fisk continued, ""No, I thought not.""<br/><br/>""Honest, Mr. Fisk, we didn't know! We thought you were gone and -- and, we thought maybe -- ""<br/><br/>""You know what they say Mr. Belcastro, life and death are but phases of the same thing, the reverse and obverse of the same coin. Death is as necessary for man's growth as life itself. And boy, do I think you're going to sprout and spring, arms stretched towards the sky like a beanstalk,"" said Fisk, before abruptly standing up, dusting off his trousers. <br/><br/>""Now if you'll excuse me,"" he said, stepping forward from behind his desk.<br/><br/>""Please Mr. Fisk, please, I'll do anything, you gotta believe us! We didn't mean for this to happen, honest -- "" pleaded the Italian mobster.<br/><br/>""James will see you out Mr. Belcastro,"" he said, nodding at the body guard across the room. <br/><br/>Fisk began to walk out of the room, with the man still yelling after him, begging. He stopped and turned to James and saying in a low tone, ""Try not to get any on my carpet this time."" <br/><br/>Fisk barely heard the gunshot on his way out, muttering to himself, ""The song is ended, but the melody lingers on... I've got work to do.""</div>"

In fact Wade was so good at facilities of murder he found himself being transferred into a special unit of skilled soldiers before he hit the age of twenty-three. By the age of thirty, Wade Wilson acted with extreme prejudice. Eventually, Wade Wilson was recommended for leave in spite of his superior military service due to a health concern: Wade Wilson had cancer. Taking this time out to try to investigate ways to subdue it, Wade was eventually approached by researchers of a obscure research project by the name of Department K. Believing their research could remove his illness he joined and began the painful process, but by the end of it Wade’s dormant healing factor became thrown into overdrive; but the catch was there was no bridging the pain of regeneration or purification of his cells. Wade felt every second and every day for several months of his cancer being wiped from his body.<br/><br/>During the recuperation process, Wade found himself in a facility obscurely associated with the project located in rural Canada. This is where Wade Wilson met Doctor Emrys Killebrew, his enforcer Ajax, and several others. This is also where Wade Wilson would lose himself. Killebrew was fascinated with Wade’s “supergene” that allowed him to regenerate all sorts of levels. Believing it to be the process to create a super soldier program that would rival HYDRA and SHIELD’s glory days he began to pick apart Wade Wilson and for quite some time Wade felt this on a daily basis as he succumbed to pain that he could only imagine. Wade attempted to bond with other patients of the program like Worm to keep him from losing himself despite the constant agonizing pain. Wade even began to think that he was communicating with the visage of Death, but death never came. One night, Wade heard how his constitution and endurance were put into a betting pool— the Likelihood of him living. He tried to escape, but even with his training the unbelievable amount of pain placed him at a disadvantage. When Worm died, Wade lost it and attempted to kill Ajax. The punishment for such insolence was Wade’s supposed end as he was deemed to have served his purpose. Ajax and Killebrew dissected Wade, chopped him into tiny pieces, set him on fire, and tossed him in a drain pipe. A normal person… would have died.<br/><br/>Regenerating from the state Wade had made him finally not just go over the brink of madness, but dancing in the fields of madness. Seeing Death again was nice for Wade, but he refused to be ready for it when the taste of vengeance drove his will to live. The regenerated Wade found his memories in pieces; only remembering fragments of the recent years. Eventually finding himself in New York City, Wade began living off the money of drug dealers he non-specifically murdered as he tried to get things on track. Wade began calling himself “Deadpool” after his memories started coming back regarding on what he witnessed in Department K and sought to hunt down Ajax. However, finding Ajax and by extension Killebrew was very <span class=""bb-i"">difficult</span>— even for a man like Wade with a certain set of “skills”. As the weeks went on Wade discovered that Ajax had supposedly resigned from Department K and had decided a career in organized crime was more befitting his type of psychopathy. Fortunately, this made Ajax much <span class=""bb-i"">easier</span> to find considering he had decided to setup shop in Detroit; a place where Wade “infiltrated” as he began killing through Ajax’s thugs and scientists to get to the top of the chain where he could end Ajax’s life but not before he told him where to find Killebrew. The answers he got after several firefights pointed in one direction— Weapon X. <br/><br/>Thus it was time to sign up.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Team X was a group mutants who worked as black ops special forces troops who did whatever Romulus told them to. No one knew exactly who Romulus was, but they knew that he was an ancient mutant with the ability to coarse animals to follow his bidding. The animal within Wolervine had betrayed him, and Logan was under Romulus' control for as long as his feral mind remained intact. For Logan to break free, he would have to acknowledge that he was more man than monster.<br/><br/>Team X consisted of Wolverine, Sabertooth, Deadpool, Copycat, Maverick, John Wraith, Mastodon and later Lady Deathstrike and X-23. The latter two were all created using Wolverine's DNA and possessed various parts of Wolverine's mutation.<br/><br/>Team X operated during various wars and conflicts throughout the years. They battled the Sentinel Order's Asian division in Korea during the Korean War. When the Cold War began, Wolverine and Sabertooth were sent to Russia to locate a device capable of creating Carbonium, a metal similar to Adamantium but easier to synthesize, and less poisonous to humans when handled without the proper equipment. They encountered the agent known as Omega Red before escaping with the device and delivering it to Romulus. The team split up briefly when the Vietnam War began, with Wolverine sent to take down an out of control super soldier named Nuke. Logan succeeded in bringing the man down, and brought him back to Weapon X before being sent back to Vietnam. Wolverine continued to assassinate various politicians, generals and activists who stood in the way of mutant progress. Romulus' forces clashed with the Trask family and their Sentinel Order as history continued to move on, oblivious to the secret war occurring in the shadows.<br/><br/>Now it is 2012, and hiding their war is becoming harder and harder. The newest member of the Trask dynasty, Bolivar Trask, has taken over Trask Industries in America and started to work on the Sentinel program. Mutants are going missing every day, and Romulus believes Trask is somehow involved. So he was assigned Wolverine with the task of hunting down everyone involved in the scheme and bringing them to justice, freeing his mutant brothers and sisters in the process.</blockquote><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">POWERS &amp; ABILITIES</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""#9f1f1f""><span class=""bb-b"">Super Soldier Physiology</span></font> – The physiology gained through experimentation on Wade has transformed Wade into “The Modern Age’s Captain America but way cooler” and as such gives Wade a condition that is ‘peak human’ in terms of endurance, strength, perception, and dexterity.</li><li><font color=""#9f1f1f""><span class=""bb-b"">Healing Factor</span></font> – As a byproduct of his accelerated x-gene, Wade’s degenerative disease was curbed due to the acceleration of a latent x-gene that unbeknownst to Wade existed in his genetic code and as such revealed itself to be as a healing factor that is even more tenacious than Wolverine’s own.

Recently he purchased a small island just off of the coast of Staten Island in NYC, and converted it into a 'Hydrobase' where he continued his studies on the Atlantic Ocean. Upon discovering clues to the location of New Atlantis, Walt was attacked by a blue skinned Atlantian! Hospitalized for several weeks, the ocean expert and amatuer inventor designed the Stingray suit to help him defend himself and to continue his research uneffected by the pressures deeper in the ocean. Still investigating the clue of New Atlantis, Walt will soon come into contact with none other than Prince Namor. <br/><br/>The general media believes Stingray to be a bodyguard with armor created by Walt to protect and defend Hydrobase. Walt doesn't think of himself as a superhero, he still sees himself as a scientist. Once he starts fighting in an out of the ocean it will be hard to tell him he's anything other than a hero.  <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/><br/>Walt doesn't possess any powers of his own. He's one of the world's leading oceanographers and an inventor having engineered and helped construct what's frequently called Hydrobase. After an attack from a warrior of New Atlantis Walt developed the Stingray suit to defend himself that grants him several powers and abilities. The suit gives him great strength capable of lifting twenty-five tons and durability to survive the pressures of the deepest parts of the ocean as well as a unique oxygen diffusion system  Booster jets are built into his boots and back harness to provide propullsion to swim at greater speeds as well as fly/glide on land. The suit's main weapon is a potent bio-electric blast emitted from the palms of the hands. The suit also has an internal communications system.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Atlantis Attacks : Prince Namor is sent to deal with Walt and attacks Hydrobase several times. Eventually the two will become friends and Namor defies the Atlantian King calling off the attacks.  <br/><br/>Tiger Shark : Todd Arliss was once a rival oceanographer and shark specialist and the brother of Walt's girlfriend Diane. Arliss was told by the doctors he could no longer swim after he suffered a back injury, however Dr. Lemuel Dorcas promised Arliss he could help. Dorcas used his lab to imprint the genetic pattern of an animal onto a human. He'll use tiger sharks on Arliss, as well as the genetic pattern of the Atlantian warrior Stingray defeated transforming Todd into a super human with a hatred for Stingray. <br/><br/>The Inhuman : Triton has wandered too far out into the world oceans and is lost until discovering Hydrobase. After a brief battle with Stingray, Walt discovers Triton is just looking for home. The two of them survive an attack from Atlantis on order of it's new King [Attuma], Lockjaw shows up at Hydrobase to take the Inhuman home. <br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>WIP</div></div><br/><br/>~KL~<br/></div>"

In fact what he saw was a Skrull infiltrator spying on the armed forces of the Earth in preparation for an invasion to gain ground on the Kree Empire. One night, after following the man he believed to be the alien he'd seen before, Derek was abducted by the Skrulls who began operating on him while still in Earth's orbit. Fighting out of the trance like state he was put in, Derek awoke and was able to cause just enough damage to the ship and the two alien Skrulls on board to see the alien craft crash into the Nevada desert. <br/><br/>Surprised that he survived the crash, Derek was shocked to find his eyes had altered color and that he was a lot stronger and faster than a normal human now. Making his way to his only remaining relative in NYC, his older brother [38] Donald, the 21 year old Derek decided to give superheroics a go with several superhumans catching the attention of the public eye as of late. Taking inspiration from a pair of 3D movie glasses in his brother's vast DVD collection, Derek settled on a symbol to call his own and the alias: the 3D Man. <br/><br/>Season 1 Summary: <br/><br/>3D Man took down several Skrulls posing as low tier heroes and villains including Thunderball, Black Goliath, Atlas, Dragon Man, as well as Griffin with an assist from Archangel. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/><br/>Derek now possesses strength, durability, speed, and stamina three times that of a normal human being. He can run as fast as 70 mph, but can attain short bursts of speed up to 90-mph. He can leap heights of up to 30 feet into the air. He can lift or press up to 1,400 lbs regularly. He also possesses a quasi-telepathic link to the distinct aura of the Skrull race, making him able to detect them in any form they assume. His brother calls Derek's power the 'Tri-Force'.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Secret Invasion: Derek continues hunting down Skrull infiltrators in the form of civilians, 5th string heroes and villains, as well as somebody higher up on the food chain [TBD by myself and Ded].<br/><br/>F4 vs Super Skrull: 3D Man will more than likely be in on this one when <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/drewvonawesome"">@DrewVonAwesome</a> makes it happen LOL. <br/><br/>Big Time: After establishing himself as a hero, 3D Man could become a member of the Avengers or perhaps something more like the New Warriors if there's enough younger heroes in the game. He'd get more of a super suit at this point as well. <br/><br/>Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):<br/><br/>""I've been tailing this 'Thunderball' character for three days now. Guy runs around with the Wrecking Crew, but I doubt they know he's one of these shape-shifting alien Skrulls. A month ago he assumed the identity of a doctor Elliot Franklin, probably to get intel on the gamma tech the military's working on. Now he looks to have got jacked on steroids and throws a ball and chain around. I can see his real face. And tonight, this alien's going down..."" Derek thought as he leaped and ran across rooftops keeping up with a car Thunderball had stolen. <br/><br/>Sometime later before ditching the car, Thunderball changed clothes. The 3D Man could see him shifting his form rather than actually changing any clothing. The man looked to have dropped about forty pounds as well to help hide his other alternate identity. Derek moved ahead to the doctor's last residence and was waiting for the Skrull. Upon entering through the door into the open, the alien was caught off guard by a punch from the stronger and faster 3D Man. A couple more punches into it Derek grabbed the alien and threw him through a wall. The home was huge. The doctor had been rich after all, before the whole being abducted and replaced with an alien. 3D Man was usually a hit first ask questions later kinda guy when it came to the aliens he was hunting. As the alien struggled to get up, Derek finally thought to ask some questions. Hopefully the alien was informative like the better villains in James Bond films...<br/><br/>""I know you're called a Skrull. What are you doing on Earth?"" 3D Man asked standing back from the floored alien.<br/><br/>""You can't MAKE me talk, human. You don't look like the torturing type."" the alien said shifting back into his alien form clad in a ridiculous purple alien suit. <br/><br/>""I'm sure the military can find something to do with you..."" Derek began before being interrupted by the alien.<br/><br/>""Wait... YOU'RE the one who defeated Captain Paibok? You may have got lucky against the Power Skrull but every other Skrull you hand over to your brother and his friends in the military..."" the alien began as Derek got a shocked look on his face at the mention of his brother Donald, ""..yes, we know about your brother, human. Every other Skrull merely shifts into another human and escapes before being completely neutered by your military. The last Skrull you sent away...""<br/><br/>""Goliath..?"" 3D Man thought out loud.<br/><br/>""...already back among the human race as a hero this time. Atlas."" the alien continued.<br/><br/>""What do you want with Earth?"" 3D Man tried again as his brother and a few special military operatives in protective gear hit the scene. <br/><br/>""I'll take my chances with your friends, thank you. We'll be seeing you soon..."" the alien continued before being restrained by a knockout gas and a fully automated fold out prison cell that formed around him.<br/><br/>""Did he tell you anything?"" Donald asked his younger brother.<br/><br/>""Yeah, the alien I took down last week got away didn't he?"" Derek asked with Tri-Force energy emitting more fluidly from his eyes.<br/><br/>""He did, why?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""The one I just took down said he's already on the move again. As a hero calling himself Atlas."" Derek explained. <br/><br/>""I saw that guy in the 'Bugle. Same powers, makes sense. You gonna go after him again?"" the older sibling asked while noticing some of the finer things in the good doctor's home.<br/><br/>""That goes without saying. How do they keep getting away from the military?"" 3D Man asked with aggravation being clear in his tone.<br/><br/>""Look... we're trying to replicate your 6th sense, but we need you to run more tests..."" Donald began reasoning.<br/><br/>""I don't have time for tests, damnit!"" Derek said a little louder as the last of the military agents evacuated the scene, ""The more time I spend with you studying my powers the more time the aliens have to gain the upper hand. <br/><br/>""You just like being a superhero little brother. You don't have to lie to me."" Donald said taking a jab at Derek.<br/><br/>""Can you give me a lift back into the city? I forgot my subway card and I don't have any cash on me?"" Derek asked.<br/><br/>""You can run at least seventy miles an hour and you want a ride? In traffic?"" Donald asked.<br/><br/>""I don't feel up for running, I just beat up an alien. And your car has a radio and a reclining seat..."" 3D Man said grinning and showing off some dimples.<br/><br/>~KL~</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Archangel"" type=""button"">Archangel [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/1Archangel_zpszy8uoris.png""/><br/><br/>Player Name: The Kid Lantern<br/><br/>Character You Wish To Play: Warren Worthington III, aka Archangel<br/><br/>Alias: Archangel<br/><br/>Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Hero<br/><br/>Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): Worthington Industries</div><br/><br/>Character Origin &amp; Backstory:<br/><br/>Warren Worthington III was your average rich kid with all the spoils and such privileged people were used to. That was until the day of his 13th birthday when he noticed something growing out of his back. One year later he had fully functioning wings, and despite his father's protests he used them to fly. Upon learning of other mutants and the Xavier School, Warren checked the place out for himself and even enrolled. However after about a month or two his anxiety to do something more kicked into gear and he headed out on his own. He had dreams of becoming a costumed adventurer but kept his head down and his wings tucked into his overcoat for the next few years while moving up in his father's company and attending college. After buying up as many shares in the company as possible, Warren took great pride in taking control of the company once he had over half the company in his back pocket. In nearly the exact same way as his father took the company from Warren Worthington I no less. <br/><br/>Still going out for a nightly fly every so often, Warren heard the screams of a young woman one night who was in the process of being mugged by two grungy looking men. When Warren touched down and saved the woman from the attackers, she broke down into tears claiming God had sent one of his agents to save her. Rumors began about an Avenging Angel defending the citizens of NYC. After seeing costumed heroes in the media like Capt. America and Spiderman, Warren made a costume of his own and took to the skies more regularly as... the ARCHANGEL.<br/><br/>Season 1 Summary: <br/><br/>Warren officially began his heroic career taking down a few muggers and going up against the Griffin a couple of times before the 3D Man revealed the monster man to be an alien in disguise. He recently met with the young Tony Stark and commissioned the prodigy of Stark Tech to assemble him a weapon. Now the hero wields a flaming sword. <br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/><br/>Archangel has wings granting him the ability to fly as well as enhanced physical attributes [strength, speed, endurance, durability]. There is also something in his blood that heals his wounds quicker, making him able to heal from serious injury within days and grow new wings within a few months if they're completely removed. He just heals quicker, but he doesn't have the OP'ed Wolverine/Deadpool healing factors.<br/><br/>Warren also wields a flaming sword designed by Tony Stark capable of cutting through most earthly metals and rock. The blade itself is made from titanium laced with adamantium making it virtually unbreakable to nearly everyone save for the Hulk. <br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Sinister Revelation - I'd like to introduce Sugar Man as a scientist named Johnathan Sweet working for Worthington Labs who had a secret agenda with Archangel's father. The secret? Warren's father had Sweet trying to clone him another son but without wings. After Warren exposes Sweet. Sugar Man loses his funding. After Warren discovers his father and Sweet's secret, it leads into the next arc...<br/><br/>Angel of Death - My version of Archangel will meet his nemesis, Sugar Man's greatest experiment, the Angel of Death [or just Death for short]. Blue skin, metal wings [cause originally he was cloned without them!], but with the look of the newer younger Angel's evil self... <span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/1/14487/4523868-angel.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">SEEN HERE</a>.</span><br/><br/>Iron Man Team-Up - This will happen eventually again with <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/drewvonawesome"">@DrewVonAwesome</a> as Warren owes Tony a favor now. What that turns into is anybody's guess...<br/><br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>""If only my father had experienced flying he would've seen why I snuck out so much when I was younger. The wind in my face and flowing through my hair, the taste and smell of moisture in the clouds the higher I fly... it's all just amazing..."" Warren thought as he flew in the clouds in the early morning hours of the day.<br/><br/>The sun was rising over the skyscrapers of New York City. Archangel finally saw his destination point in the Worthington Industries building about six blocks down from Williams Innovations. His muscles contracted, and his wings folded inwards as he touched down on the roof of the building. In a secret stash he found some clothes he'd put away for just this sort of thing. After dressing himself in more casual clothes he tossed on his overcoat. Most people assumed he wore one because he was rich and that's the sort of thing they wear over their expensive suits. Most people assumed Warren was just another one of those douchebags. Of course, he wore it to conceal his wings...<br/><br/>After a long and boring shareholder's meeting, Warren flipped through some monthly reports from their pharmaceutical division. A lab in New Jersey seemed to be spending quite a bit of money on materials and equipment. Nearly everything was signed by a Doctor Johnathan Sweet. <br/><br/>""I'm going to look into this a bit later, right now I need to get out and stretch my wings..."" he thought.<br/><br/>~KL~</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Stingray"" type=""button"">Stingray [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/Stingray-ASM-AVA_zps8o2dabqm.png""/><br/><br/>Player Name: The Kid Lantern<br/><br/>Character You Wish To Play:<br/><img src=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/3/39/Stingray_logo.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/250?cb=20130910222256""/> aka Walter 'Walt' Newell<br/><br/>Alias: Stingray<br/><br/>Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Hero<br/><br/>Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): the Avengers</div><br/><br/>Character Origin &amp; Backstory:<br/><br/>Walter 'Walt' Newell is twenty-nine years old and the leading oceanographer in the United States. Recently he purchased a small island just off of the coast of Staten Island in NYC, and converted it into a 'Hydrobase' where he continued his studies on the Atlantic Ocean. Upon discovering clues to the location of New Atlantis, Walt was attacked by a blue skinned Atlantian! Hospitalized for several weeks, the ocean expert and amateur inventor designed the Stingray suit to help him defend himself and to continue his research unaffected by the pressures deeper in the ocean. Still investigating the clue of New Atlantis, Walt will soon come into contact with none other than Prince Namor. <br/><br/>The general media will believe Stingray to be a bodyguard with armor created by Walt to protect and defend Hydrobase. Walt doesn't think of himself as a superhero, he still sees himself as a scientist. Once he starts fighting in an out of the ocean it will be hard to tell him he's anything other than a hero.  <br/><br/>Season 1 Summary: <br/><br/>N/A<br/><br/>Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):<br/><br/>Walt doesn't possess any powers of his own. He's one of the world's leading oceanographers and an inventor having engineered and helped construct what's frequently called Hydrobase. After an attack from a warrior of New Atlantis Walt developed the Stingray suit to defend himself that grants him several powers and abilities. The suit gives him great strength capable of lifting twenty-five tons and durability to survive the pressures of the deepest parts of the ocean as well as a unique oxygen diffusion system  Booster jets are built into his boots and back harness to provide propulsion to swim at greater speeds as well as fly/glide on land. The suit's main weapon is a potent bio-electric blast emitted from the palms of the hands. The suit also has an internal communications system.<br/><br/>Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.<br/><br/>Atlantis Attacks : Prince Namor is sent to deal with Walt and attacks Hydrobase several times. Eventually the two will become friends and Namor defies the Atlantian King calling off the attacks.  <br/><br/>Tiger Shark : Todd Arliss was once a rival oceanographer and shark specialist and the brother of Walt's girlfriend Diane. Arliss was told by the doctors he could no longer swim after he suffered a back injury, however Dr. Lemuel Dorcas promised Arliss he could help. Dorcas used his lab to imprint the genetic pattern of an animal onto a human. He'll use tiger sharks on Arliss, as well as the genetic pattern of the Atlantian warrior Stingray defeated transforming Todd into a super human with a hatred for Stingray. <br/><br/>The Inhuman : Triton has wandered too far out into the world oceans and is lost until discovering Hydrobase. After a brief battle with Stingray, Walt discovers Triton is just looking for home. The two of them survive an attack from Atlantis on order of it's new King [Attuma], Lockjaw shows up at Hydrobase to take the Inhuman home. <br/><br/>Sample Post:<br/><br/>""Several weeks ago I'm pretty sure I stumbled onto undersea artifacts connected to the lost city of Atlantis. It became even clearer when a blue skinned man with gills came out of the water in some strange armor and tried to kill me..."" Walt thought to himself as he walked around his Hydrobase lab and research center just off the shore of Staten Island, ""I was only in the hospital recovering from the attack for two weeks, it's a wonder those blue skinned people didn't completely wreck the base..."" he continued walking outside and to his boat dock. <br/><br/>""Next time I'll be ready..."" he thought, ""Next time the Stingray will show those blue skinned Atlantians they're not the only ones with strength and power..."" he continued thinking as he opened a storage compartment on his boat revealing his red and white suit. <br/><br/>""The thrusters and ceratotrichia-like fins should make darting through the water as easy as swimming. They still need to be tested on land though... what the hell... why not go ahead and get the final testing out of the way?"" he thought before pulling the suit out of the compartment.<br/><br/>Walt stepped inside the 'Hydrobase' that he still hadn't come up with a suitable name for and stepped out looking like a red and white clad superhero. It was only the second time he had ever put on the suit having just finished it days earlier. Walt pushed a concealed button in the index finger of each glove and flexed his arms outward propelling his wing like appendages connecting to his legs. Thrusters ignited in his feet and the base of the ceratotrichia fins on his backpack like harness and he took to the sky. After several moments he pushed the tiny buttons again and the thrusters cut off leaving Stingray to glide in the air above the Atlantic Ocean. If only he had seen the blue skinned people of New Atlantis spying on him below...<br/><br/>~KL~</div></div><br/><br/>That's all I've got for now.

Autumn Eirwen

Female

16

Generally a quiet girl, Autumn normally fades into the background. She is the kind of person who prefers to take the pictures, not be in them. She is usually a very passive and kind person. She does not like violence though just because she doesn’t like it doesn’t mean she won’t resort to it to keep the people she cares about safe. She is an easy-going person and very agreeable. This doesn’t mean she doesn’t have an opinion however and she is not afraid to tell it if she is comfortable around you. She really doesn’t talk around strangers and becomes very awkward when she is the center of any attention. She is somewhat of a klutz, managing to trip over her own feet more often than not. 

A decent cook, Autumn is wary around knifes from the time she almost took her thumb off when chopping vegetables for dinner. She is a night owl and not much of a morning person. She can be very OCD when it comes to certain things, especially around her house; everything is nice and orderly. It is not as bad out in public and she can normally keep a lid on it. She is also a bookworm, having around three full shelves over-flowing with books. She can be found more often than curled up in a chair reading or drawing. 

Bio is TBR

Parents are TBR

Her Mark is on her right cheek

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Usagi has a cheerful and upbeat personality, and as such she is, rather easily, able to get along quite well with her guildmates. As well as, Usagi likes to start fights. She will also try and make friends with anyone she see's. For instance if someone new arrived, she'll do her best to acknowledge them and try and become friends with them. Usagi enjoys reading and drawing. Give her a book and she'll ignore everything around her when reading. 
<div class=""bb-indent"">Usagi is clumsy at times and she also laughs a lot when she's nervous. Even though she's always fooling around, she is pretty smart and if you catch her in a bad mood(Like; If someone she likes died in a book, etc.), she will possibly be blunt and sarcastic. She will also point out your mistakes or call you stupid at one point. The only way you can calm her down is either ice cream or candy. After that, she'l be following you around everywhere. You could also bribe her with candy!</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>
Usagi was always invisible in her parent's eyes. They only loved her younger sister, Aika. Usagi never understood because Aika was a brat. A little angel in her parents eyes and a devil in Usagi's eyes. Just as they were growing up, Usagi was always alone. The only thing that kept her smiling was the thought of growing up and joining 'Fairy Tail.' 
<div class=""bb-indent"">Sixteen. 16, was the age she was going to join 'Fairy Tail.' She swore to herself that she was going to make that dream come true, and she was right. Since her parents didn't care what the hell she was going to do in her life, they let her go live her dreams. Something she always wanted to do at a young age.
It took a lot of convincing and proving until she was accepted in the group, and ever since, she always smiled.</div>

Using this to their advantage, the very same dark guild, took him in, pinning the destruction of his home on Fairy Tail.

""<font color=""#f26522"">That's the second job I've screwed up this month. If that keeps happening I'll have no money for anything.</font>"" She groaned as she walked.

Her head was bowed slightly and she was completely absorbed in the pages of the novel. An explosion could go off and she wouldn't even look up. It was ok when she was sitting down but she always had a bad habit of reading and walking. Lets just say she has had a lot of scraped knees and palms from tripping and falling or a sore head from bumping into walls. She hasn't fall into the water yet but lets hope she never does. Her legs were kicking softly back and forth, too short to touch the floor. 

The guild was like normal and she had grown used to the chatter and noise that normally went on so she was able to read peacefully. Having just come back from a successful mission, she had wanted to relax a bit before going off on another one. She could have read at home but it was just so lonely and quiet there. She liked being surrounded by the others.</div>"

Elysia was dressed in black ripped skinny jeans, black cargo boots, an electric yellow cropped strapless top, and a black vest like thing that hung down to her knees and had a black lace sleeve on her left arm. Metal bands lined her right arm to just below her guild mark, a metal chain hung on her pants and of course her ears had her normal piercings along with a new belly button piercing. Her hair was in her normal hair style with a black bow headband in it. She headed to the bar and sat down ordering a cream soda. When she got it she turned around to watch everything while sipping on the drink in her hand.</div>"

She sniffed the air and smiled, another day another start. Usagi walked up to the board where they had all the missions. <font color=""plum"">""Hmm, this one seems pretty good..And the reward it's amazing.""</font> She didn't want to go straight to it. She decided to wait for a while. Have a small snack, settle down and then begin her mission.</div>

This was always a dream for Usagi, attend the Fairy Tail guild. I guess you could say, her dream came true. She sat on one of the couches in the corner, drinking soda. Usagi honestly, was homesick. Sure, yeah, her parents treated her like crap, but she still loved them. As well as her sister. As bratty and stupid, plus annoying as she can be, it was pretty great being around her. She sipped on the straw, quietly studying the people around her. They all seemed like normal nice people once you get to know them. You see, Usagi hasn't made friends with any of them. It's usual easy, but she was just too nervous. 
Worries flooded her brain, such as...

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">""Omg, what if they don't like me?""</span> Or, <span class=""bb-i"">""What if they think i'm stupid and they'll kick me out! WHAT IF I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH!?""</span></div>

That never stopped her from smiling though. Plus, the only thing she enjoyed most was seeing people smile and have  good time. That's exactly what she was seeing around the Fairy tail guild. Something that she doesn't see often at home.

Autumn had been quietly reading and she had glanced up just in time to see Sleg trip and fall to the floor, spilling his coffee onto the ground. Autumn winced, watching him bend the space around the spilled beverage before just laying there and staring up at the ceiling. Autumn quietly got up, closed her book then approached the bar. She quickly ordered a coffee and held the steaming mug in her hands as she picked her way over to Sleg. She leaned over him slightly, tendrils of her white hair falling around her face as she looked at him with concerned silver eyes.

<font color=""gold"">""Y-You okay?""</font> She asked, holding out one small hand to him while still holding the mug in the other. She glanced at it before blushing. <font color=""gold"">""S-Sorry that it's probably not the same k-kind you were drinking.""</font> She stammered, blushing brighter. <font color=""gold"">""It probably won't taste the same but coffee is coffee right? I mean yeah there are different flavors and different kinds of coffee.""</font> She was babbling. She defiantly needs to shut up right about now. <font color=""gold"">""And different various of caffeine. Not to mention there are different forms of brewing it.""</font> It was time to be quiet now. She finally managed to stop talking, not sure her cheeks could get any brighter than they already were. She averted her eyes in embarrassment, hand still held out to him and coffee still clenched in the other.</div>"

I can relate to loosing food and drink items to the floor; I'm not very graceful when it comes to walking. Oh! I'm Autumn. Autumn Eirwen.""</font> She replied. She was used to a lot of people not knowing her name though she had been at the guild ever since she was a child. She was so quiet and shy that she just tended to blend into the background. That was just the way things were and she had accepted the fact long ago. Besides, her parents had always treated her like she was an inanimate object so the way things were now really didn't come as a surprise.</div>"

Autumn blinked in surprise. She was expecting Sieg to go about the rest of his day and she would fade into the background once again. But instead he threw her for a loop and invited her to sit down with him. She complied, taking a seat next to him and folding her hands neatly in her lap. <font color=""gold"">""It's very nice to meet you Sieg.""</font> She replied. She blinked at his question. <font color=""gold"">""Well, I can create things using my energy.""</font> To demonstrate she cupped her hands together and concentrated. A blue light began emanating from her palms and one could see the particles begin grouping together. Soon, she was holding a blue glowing cup identical to the one Sieg was holding. She held it out for him to examine. It was as solid as the real one though if he threw it to the floor it would break into small blue chunks that would fade away. <font color=""gold"">""So what about you?""</font></div>"

""That sounds like an S-Class mission, I haven't been on one of those in awhile."" He whispered to himself. Sieg raised his hand.""Hey Haru I'll tag along with you buddy!!!""

Autumn blinked again. The surprises just kept coming. First she got invited to sit down and talk and now she was being invited the join a mission. She mostly did her missions solo. No one had ever asked her if she wanted to go on one and she was too shy to ask if she could join one. She contemplated the question. It might be nice, going on a mission with other people. She gave Sieg a shy, friendly smile as she nodded. <font color=""gold"">""Sure, I'll go on the quest as well.""</font></div>"

He enjoyed the bird's eye view from up here, feeling like it was a good way of spotting all of the action that goes on in Fairy Tail on a daily basis. Aside from seeing Sieg trip over himself, what intrigued him the most was all the buzz about an S-class job. ""An S-class job, huh...hehe, why not!"" He stated as he slipped on his hood and simply dropped from the rafter, landing on his feet with ease. ""If you'll have me, I'd be happy to join you as well.."" He stated as he gave a slight bow to those standing before him, the only thing visible to them from his hood being a smile.</div>"

Some of the powers she heard would be useful on their mission. She wondered if she would be any help. Her power was pretty basic and she couldn't think of anything she do with it that would benefit the others. She sighed quietly before adjusting her glasses on her face. Suddenly, she felt herself falling forward as she tripped over a crack in the road. She yelped as she tumbled to the ground, glasses flying off her face and sailing to some unknown place. She listened with baited breath and sighed in relief when she didn't hear a splash that signaled her glasses taking a swim in the canal.

Ignoring her stinging palms and bruised knees Autumn began feeling around the ground trying to locate her glasses, the world a blurred jumble around her.</div>"

As he turned to get moving, Michael couldn't help but hear a yelp followed by something dropping unto the ground nearby. Turning around, he saw that Autumn had fallen and lost her glasses in persona cess. Luckily, they were only a few feet away from him, so, he walked over, picked up the pair of glasses, and then advanced toward Autumn, now kneeling before her. ""Here. I believe these belong to you, no?"" He states, holding the glasses out for her to grab them.</div>"

Upon hearing a voice spoken above her, Autumn looked up. She was barely able to make out a extremely blurry face and she wasn't able to recognize who it was. Her hand stretched out, fumbling in the air for a moment before her fingers bumped into the object being held out to her. To her delight she recognized the shape of her glasses. She cleaned the lenses and perched them back onto her nose, pleased to find that everything seemed to be in one piece. She was glad they hadn't been stepped on or worse. 

Looking up she was finally able to see who her glasses's rescuer was. It was Michael. She gave him a small smile as she climbed to her feet. <font color=""violet"">""T-Thank you.""</font> she uttered quietly, attention drawn down to her scraped palms. It wasn't too bad and didn't seemed to be bleeding. Her knees however were another matter. Some skin was missing and blood was trickling down her legs. To top it off her stockings were torn. Darn it. She liked those leggings.</div>"

""Don't mention it. Oh, it appears you've hurt yourself..if you'd like, I could help you with that too."" He offered to Autumn, not wanting to try anything without her consent. In any case, he reached in a pouch on his hip for a roll of gauze, being sure to have it at the ready in case she accepts his offer.</div>"

Located in the kingdom of Fiore it is the most popular guild you can find. With many famous and powerful wizards in it's ranks it's very destructive but no one in the guild cares cause it's their guild and family.

Hello! I'm the awesome booksmusicanime! So I've started three Fairy Tail roleplays in my time that I've been here. So I decided that I should make a new one so this is <span class=""bb-i"">Fairy Tail: This is Our Guild</span>! Now cause I need to take a shower I'm going to post our AWESOME rules!

1. NO GODMODDING! I say this in every RP I have created and I still find godmoders on my RPS.
2. Don't be overpowered. I want everyone to be fair and equal
3. DO NOT control a character that isn't yours. I hate when people do this and if I catch you doing this even once I will not be nice.
4. Please once you have finished your CS post it in the Character area. It saves people the hassle of trying to find your character.
5. NO MAIN CHARACTERS PLEASE! And no children characters of the characters from the show
6. Warn me when you will be gone so I can catch you up. I hate when people disappear without telling me. I've lost almost half a roleplay due to that.
7. Be nice. Even I do it sometimes but if you decide to become a class A jerk just leave or once you realize what you've done apologize to the person you were a jerk to. I want everyone to feel welcome.
8. This will be a first come first serve. There are only 6 spots in this roleplay.
9. PM me to ask if you can be a S-Class there will only be a few S-Class Members of the Roleplay.
10. NO WEIRD POWERS!! I'll tell you when a power is weird. Also there will be two Dragon Slayers.
11. YOU CANNOT BE A NEW MEMBER!! It's a pain to deal with.
12. YOU CAN ONLY HAVE TWO CHARACTERS!! Be on your toes because you might get a PM to be a bad guy for a Arc.
13. NO FOURTH WALL BREAKING! Just please don't it will kill a roleplay.
14. And most importantly have fun! I don't like it when people are downers so if you're down just trust me you'll be cheered up and having fun again in no time.

Gender: Male
Age (12-24): 24
Birthday: June 1st
Gemstone: Sapphire
Personality: Sage is very quiet at times, but he can be really loud once you get to know him. He is a nice guy all together though and fiercely protective of friends. He is the oldest of the time travelers, so he has to be the most mature most of the time. Sage is very smart and was the one who created the machine that helps them travel back in time. He tends to be completely silent when he is thinking, but if you get him going, he can be obnoxious. 
History: Sage was born an only child to a widowed woman. She raised him and protected him fiercely. She loved him so much, which is why she feared for his life when he began to disappear randomly during the day. Raven began to travel back in time when he was twelve, as it is for most time travelers. He began to disappear for long periods of time during the day and night and not come back from wherever he went off to for a good couple hours. He found out later that he was special because he could sense people around him more than most could. He founded the Travelers group. 

But he knows that he is not safe. None of them are. A group called the Black Riders found him while he was wandering the streets when he was twelve. When he disappeared directly in front of him, they swore to find him and take that blood to create their own time traveling device... And change the events of history. Sage now knows he has to stop them. 
Gift: Super Senses: Can sense people easier than others

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Achilles Lancelot
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22
<span class=""bb-b"">Birthday:</span> December the 1st 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gemstone:</span> Onyx
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Achilles is determined, strong-willed, and focused. Usually, he's calm, although he is known for snapping in anger when annoyed enough. He can be seen as rather cold and stone-hearted, emotional-wise, but that's just because he doesn't show much mushy caring or love. He steps in if he sees someone blatantly being jumped or bullied, or worse, and he usually helps out some things when he goes back far in time. His time in the Roman Gladitorial coliseum has basically created him, as he has been going there time and time again, competing in the battles, as he finds it to be a fascinating, interesting time of the world. 264 BC. 
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Achilles' history isn't all that grand. He was born to a historian of a mother, and she was interested in the Roman times, and this interest fell to him. He was reading a text-book on the Roman Gladiators, when suddenly, he was gone in an instant. He had time-traveled back into the BC times. There, he was found by a wandering group of escaped gladiators, and was taken in. They taught him things, but he accidentally traveled back to the modern world when he tripped and nearly impaled himself on a spear. Since then, he has periodically traveled back to 264 BC, getting more skilled with every trip, until he began participating in the coliseum at the age of 14. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gift:</span> Achilles possesses an over-all enhanced body. He is faster, has more stamina, is stronger, can take more hits, and has better reflexes than others, which makes him shine in battle scenarios; which is probably why he always goes to 264 BC.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center"">Name: Austin Stavner

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Birthday: August 1st

Gemstone: Emerald

Personality: Austin was never a talkative guy. He isn't exactly a confident person, but he's not the shy type and knows how to be easily comfortable with other people. When he talks, he can sometimes be hurtful or straightforward. But when he chooses to, he can be convincing with lies. He's a very private person himself but is good with empathizing and is easy to come to. He won't let others know, but he tends to get attached to others easily too.

History: Austin used to have a twin sister who died after getting ran over by a bus six years ago. One day, he found himself seeing her again. At first he wasn't able to understand what he could do. He spent some time thinking that he had gone crazy and unable to move on from his sisters' death. Later, he realized that he was going back in time, so he accepted and practiced his ability. He learned to be responsible with it, and always fought the temptation to change what happened with his sister. When he visited the time of his sisters' death, instead of saving her life, he helped her by making it less painful for her. After that, he found that he was able to take peoples' pain as much as he wants, but in exchange, feels that pain himself.

Gift: Austin can take someone else's pain but will feel half of its intensity after he does.</div>

Gender: Male

Age (12-24): 23


Birthday: July 1st

Gemstone: Ruby

Personality: Jack is always smiling for the most part.   He is constantly  joking about whatever is around him. However he loves to learn as much he can and can be quite intelligent. He has no problem with using his fists or his words depending on what has to be done. He is loyal to anyone who deserves it.

History: Jack was raised by a pair of Egyptologists and was taught all about ancient Egypt in particular the Middle Kingdom. He was taught how to translate the language around 11 years old. When he turned 12 he had a strange occurrence. He was sitting there reading a book when suddenly he looked around and saw the site his parents were working was gone. Now there was a temple in front of him with people moving around it. He thought he was going insane until he noticed that it was all real. He went back and forth for years learning all that he could about the period. Eventually he figured out he was there during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II. He  learned the language and how to fight with a  Khopesh sword. He keeps it with him no matter where he goes. Jack is skilled in how to use it from being taught by a few warriors he met in the period.

<img src=""http://1501bc.com/files/khopesh/weapons10.jpg""/>


Gift: Teleportation. As long as he can see where he is going he can go there.  If the area is blocked by line of sight then he cannot go there.

~Stands at 4’8~

~Name~
Autumn Eirwen

~Gender~
Female

~Age~ 
16

~Birthday~
February 1th

~Gemstone~
Amethyst

~Personality~
Generally a quiet girl, Autumn normally fades into the background. She is the kind of person who prefers to take the pictures, not be in them. She is usually a very passive and kind person. She does not like violence though just because she doesn’t like it doesn’t mean she won’t resort to it to keep the people she cares about safe. She is an easy-going person and very agreeable. This doesn’t mean she doesn’t have an opinion however and she is not afraid to tell it if she is comfortable around you. She really doesn’t talk around strangers and becomes very awkward when she is the center of any attention. She is somewhat of a klutz, managing to trip over her own feet more often than not. 

A decent cook, Autumn is wary around knifes from the time she almost took her thumb off when chopping vegetables for dinner. She is a night owl and not much of a morning person. She can be very OCD when it comes to certain things, especially around her house; everything is nice and orderly. It is not as bad out in public and she can normally keep a lid on it. She is also a bookworm, having around three full shelves over-flowing with books. She can be found more often than curled up in a chair reading or drawing. 

~History~
To say Autumn had been loved as a child would be over-exaggerating. Her father was a wealthy business man for a computer company and her mother didn’t work. Her parents had not married for love but to bring two wealthy families together. Her father was always at work and her mother was out at parties all hours of the day. Autumn had a nanny that took care of her. Her parents never paid attention to her and when they did they were detached, not really caring about the conversation going on. Autumn eventually stopped trying to get her parents to notice her after she made a horrible grade on a test just to see how they would react. Her father never looked up from his tablet and her mother just gave her a customary glance, replying “That’s nice dear.” Autumn faded into the background and even though she was surrounded with so much <span class=""bb-i"">stuff</span>, she was horribly lonely.

So, she took to reading every book she could get her hands on. She was found in the library more often than not. She just loved how she could escape to the worlds between those pages. One day when she was twelve she had been reading a book about the Wild West when suddenly she wasn’t in the library anymore. The snort of horses and hot dry dust that blew in her face made her believe she was hallucinating. That belief was only strengthened when she saw a man push open a pair of salon doors and mosey over to his horse. He had a wide brim hat, spurs, the whole works. Autumn couldn’t believe it, she was actually in the West! From then on Autumn loved traveling back in time and actually <span class=""bb-i"">seeing</span> what been she couldn’t only read about and dream of seeing.

~Gift~
Autumn can create force fields using her own energy.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>: Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Age (12-24)</span>: 19
<span class=""bb-b"">Birthday</span>: October 1st
<span class=""bb-b"">Gemstone</span>: Opal
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Esther is a very energetic and temperamental person when she is around those she is comfortable with. She hardly ever worries about the consequences of her actions, but is considerate of the feelings of those around her. Esther can be extremely impatient, excitable and impulsive. She does not filter her words either, so is therefore prone to blurting out whatever she's thinking in a loud and tactless manner. Although she is a hyper being this female does have a tendency to shy away from those she does not know because she feels that they do not like her. Esther is an avid daydreamer whether she is around many or by herself. Not only does Esther daydream she also lies constantly. The one thing she does not lie about though is her love for singing. Ether loves to sing, but has yet to sing on a stage.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Esther’s mother was unknown, and her father was in and out of relationships constantly. She could say he was a good man, but she’d be lying. After all, he dropped her off at an orphanage.  Years were spent in that orphanage until a loving couple took her in. The ‘loving couple’ that had wanted a daughter like no other had spent countless amounts of money on plastic surgery to make her look like their dream child. She was to be ‘punished’ each time there was a task, or an order that she could not execute to perfection.  Anything and everything was to be done for their adopted child to be perfect like they had wanted. Until they took their eyes off of her. She used that split-second chance to escape from that house no matter if the cost was for her to be alone. Esther later conditioned herself to forget the memory of her adopted parents, so she could move on, and not have those memories in the back of her mind. On the road she encountered an old woman that had not only given her advice, but a pair of glasses. Along the road she found out the old woman was homeless so Esther decided to make money singing to random couples, and rent an apartment for the both of them. Not long after the woman had died, and Esther began roaming the streets once again, but instead stole what she could.

She had no knowledge of her power until she had been running away from someone who had caught her stealing. Esther had seen an article about ancient pots they had recently discovered right before the thievery happened, so she wished she could escape to that time. In the blink of an eye she wound up in that time period, but didn’t know what had happened till she wandered around. From then on she decided to go back to places that would be more fitting than her own current time period. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gift</span>: Esther can imitate the voices she has heard. It takes multiple times to hear a voice to get the perfect tune, motion, and accent down, but if she hears it at least once then she can imitate the tune, and accent.

<span class=""bb-i"">If one were to walk down the street, passing by a few small houses here and there, and enter the throng of the large city, they would notice an older building. Very tall, very solidly sound, though it has been there for many years. The stone, made of a tan sandstone, shows years of wear and tear, but it still stands strong. Walking by, people would think that it is just a museum of some kind. Or a private home that is not open to the public. But it is so much more than that. If only they knew what was on the inside…</span>

His head hidden under a dark black hoodie, Sage Goldmen approaches the building, stalking up to the front door. He twists his sapphire graduation ring around his finger and he knocks on the door. A slit in the door opens up and Sage flashes his ring at the man behind to door. The man says, “Hello Sapphire Traveler,” before opening the door and letting Sage inside. Sage smiles slightly and walks inside. 

The large tiled foyer looms in front of him. He walks down it quickly, nodding to the door man. He needed to make this meeting of the Travelers quick, before he needed to travel himself. He hurries into the meeting room and takes a seat. He drums his fingers on the desk, lying his head in his hand. They should all be coming very soon, considering it was time for most of them to do their daily travel. </div>"

The library in her house was quiet as it always was, the silence only broken by the staccato ticking of a closet sitting on the mantle of the fire place. The warm sunshine spilled into the room, alighting on a figure curled up on the window seat, making her blonde hair shine gold in the rays. The girl had her knees tucked to her chest, her wardrobe consisting of gray skinny jeans, a purple and gray ombre sweater and black boots. Her hair was loose around her shoulders, the curls spilling down her back and all the way to her waist. 

A rustling noise sounded out as slender fingers gently turned the page, bright green eyes idly glancing at the clock. They quickly widened when she read the time and she leaped to her feet, quickly grabbing her messenger bag filled with art supplies and books as well as other things she might need. She quickly pushed the book she had been reading inside as she ran out the doors, down the hall, descended the grand staircase. No one asked where this girl seemed to be off to in such a hurry because no one either cared or was home. To her parents she was invisible and to the staff that worked at the large mansion she was just something to look after. 

Once she had turned seventeen she was all but nonexistent to the residents of the Eirwen household. Autumn shook the thought from her head and ran out the door and down the drive, heading towards a large building a few blocks away. She arrived there, breathless and panicked that she might be late. She flashed her ring at the door and was let inside. She quickly hurried towards the meeting room, hoping she wasn't late. She slid inside and blinked. Gage was the only one here. She had panicked for nothing. She sighed and dropped into a chair, folding her arms across the table and resting her forehead on them as she caught her breath.</div>"

He had to be in the year 1250 BC soon. He had work to do and was curious about something new. He had to investigate a battle to check out or to check on the trade routes of the area. His parents still had no idea that he could travel into a time period that they only knew about in books and from the tombs. He got to see them in real life. They still had no idea how he was fluent in the language. They could not tell he was going back or how he had gotten that sword.

He walked over to the building and flashed his ruby ring. It was a family heirloom and his father thought he should have it. He had kept the ring with him through his adventures over the years. He had treasured the ring and his khopesh. Both had kept him alive for a very long time. Now he was wearing a linen robe that he had gotten in his early time there. He had to fit in if his plan was to work and to not cause any issues in time. It was covering up a pair of jeans and a white shirt. He walked to the desk and sat down at the seat.

 ""Hello Sage. Hello Autumn. How are you two doing?"" He said as he read from his journal. It was a jumble of hieroglyphics and English. He had translations of  hieratic and other writings in there. As was his nature he was still reading no matter what they said. He did not want to be here right now.</div>"

He knew he should leave for the meeting now, but he just got back from seeing Anya, his sister. His dead sister, actually. But ever since his first travel, he always comes back for her. It was hard, sneaking into the past and visiting her. The worst part was having to hide. For so many years, he kept his grown-up face away from her view. He only watched her quietly. Sometimes, he spoke to her, but only in the dark, when she won't recognize how old he looked. Every time he returns from the time she was alive, he wants to return immediately. But he fought the temptation of staying there, knowing it wouldn't be good to live in the past. All the thoughts made him weary.

Finally, he dragged himself off the bed with a groan and put on a gray hoodie, keeping it's zipper open. While trudging down the stairs, a voice called out to ask where he was off to. But Austin ignored the question and let himself out. The whole walk to the old building took him about twenty minutes. It gave him enough time to get some fresh air.

He knocked on the building's door, when he suddenly remembered his gem. He fished the emerald out of his pocket. It had an odd, rugged shape and had a green glow to it. He was let in as soon as he presented it. In the meeting room, he found that only three of them had arrived. He gave a nod to the small group while taking a seat beside Autumn. She seemed tired, but Austin didn't comment on it. He just lazily leaned on the back of his chair and stared at the walls.</div>"

It was still quite difficult to come to terms with being able to travel in the first place after a while of doing so, but worried less about that and more on where she was going to go this time. The last time she let herself travel back in time without knowing where she wanted to go she ended up in the worst place possible, at least, to her it was the worst. Over a certain time period she found out that if a place was not picked then it was to be randomly selected. Why this happened she had no idea why, but what she did know at the moment was time was ticking fast. Time was another factor that this power consisted of, but was not something Esther took into account all too often.

She had finally made it to the building, and the place had and old feel to it, but at the same time it still felt young enough to be owned by someone if there was no knowledge of it being owned in the first place. While walking up to it she made sure that she had the necklace needed to get in. Esther then knocked, and when the door opened slightly she pointed at a small silver piece that hung around her neck with an opal center. The opal looked as if space were condensed into a small gemstone, and milk droplets were spread out over the stone to trap space. It was something she had already owned, but had no memory of where it came from, so not only is the necklace unknown to her it is also a sort of curiosity. When she walked in she noticed that there were already a few of the travelers inside, but looked to be spaced out in the room instead of together discussing a plan. 

“What'd I miss?”</div>"

She was still toting four instruments and her treasured, enormous copy of ""A History of Rome"" since she'd had library study group and four consecutive music lessons. She ran into the center of town and slowed down to act a little more normal until she walked up to the big house. Setting down two of her instruments (Her flute and piccolo clarinet) she flashed her right wrist at the door. Her charm bracelet, with real aquamarine in the charms on it, opened the lock and allowed her inside. She looked around the circle only to find that there were only a few other people in the building. She panicked, thinking that she had missed the meeting.
""Oh my gosh, I'm sorry I missed it but I had music lessons!"" She mumbled.</div>"

""No you're fine. We haven't even started yet."" He lets out a sigh and runs a hand through his hair. ""Well, it looks like this is all that we are going to have,"" he says. ""I just wanted to tell everyone that the Black Riders have become more confident. They nearly took out one of our own when he went back in time only yesterday. They somehow are getting intel from here about where we are going."" His eyes scan the room. ""I hope that I can trust each of you that you are not telling them what is going on.""</div>"

She sat back in her seat with her hands folded in her lap, eyes on Jack as he started the meeting. The news of the Riders trying to attack one of their own was old news in itself but for them to have almost succeeded? That was worrying. Very worrying indeed. And to think, Jack though there was a spy in their midst? Autumn refrained from looking around. She as not going to get paranoid. That would not help matters. They couldn't start doubting each other in the moment when they needed to be united and at their strongest. Besides, there didn't need to be a witch hunt. That would give the Black Riders the advantage to crush them.</div>"

In the group, he was probably one of the must vulnerable to the Riders. He was an easy target for someone who travels back to almost the same times. For years, he barely went back to a time where his sister didn't exist. He was predictable. It was stupid of him, but he couldn't help himself. And the idea of someone among them giving away information...it scared him. He carefully glanced over everyone in the room, but decided not to comment yet.</div>"

""Because there's a difference between a fact, and an opinion,"" she slammed her hand on the desk that was near her ""If they almost killed a traveler then we can't have any doubt about each other like I am right now."" At this very moment her blood was boiling with anger at the fact that someone would possibly be leaking information about them that's in the room right now.

year 2015-2030, Robots are beginning to be made. they're mostly drones nothing important, Science begins to Accelerate, the world golden age begins with lots of culture and peace, the world is happy

2030-2035 Israel-Middle war starts and ends, Ends with Israel being nuked, 2035-40 world war three, America and its allies (canada, britian, Australia, france) but however all of the other countries tooken the advantage and attempt to nuke them, Total chaos breaks out and it ends with nuclear war,

2040-2100, the Hibernation period, the remaining survivors hide in a underground pipeline, a special group of a 5 million people go into a large cryo sleep for 300 years. Fighting each other for resources, radiation begins to go underground causing mutations near 2080, Killing everyone in pipelines close to the surface,

2100-2200 Mutations start getting severe, Causing infected people to attack the remaining survivors, Wiping out the remaining population, the world becomes silent for once, at 2200 the last mutant died of starvation

2200-2300 cryo sleep people wake up, and go to the surface now that earth is cleaned, they settled in america calling it Ente Islana (america has became tropical due to the radiation) it is a very communistic place, very totaltarian. another group of cryo sleepers go onto cuba, calling it Eubai, a few people go to canada and call it Revenati, some people go to mexico and call it Mexi, many other small countries are in Ente islana

2300-2310 Massive science acceleration in Ente Islana, due to a hidden Cache of Scientific prototypes from 2035

2310-2350, Eubai secretly starts stealing ente islanas new technology and gives it to the other countries, Ente islana begins its conquest to capture the Heretic countries (non-islanaians) ends with the Alliance (eubai, revenati, mexi) capturing ente islana, Ethan Livingstone (general of the EIAF) learned how to time travel and brung a tiny but fully armed squad of 10 with him (he has the gift to take 10 people through time with him)

2350-2400 Big peace, very long lasting, a roboticist named Sarah tesla invented robots using old blueprints, she then made even more robots, robots are being created and lots of them are sentient, by the end robots become extremely Sentient and a extremely intelligent prototype AI called EZIK was created,

2400-2450 EZIK and the robots malfunctioned, Sarah Telsa sympathized with the robots and joined them, organic/synthetic war begins, Synthetics won by a landslide

2450-2550 Humanity is enslaved, forced to fix and create robots in slavery, Tesla was betrayed

But being from the past wouldn't be a good idea because of the fact that travelers can only travel to a time period once, so this would be the only time we'd see your character. Once he goes back our characters won't be able to talk to yours.

To add to what <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/l0ck0n"">@l0ck0n</a> says: Since your character is from the past, he would have had to travel forwards in time in order to get to where we are in time, which is kind of a big no-no according to the rules. We do not travel forwards. We all travel backwards. Your character can't be from the future because Scarlett doesn't want any future characters, your character can't be from the past because that means you would have had to travel forwards to be able to interact with us, which, per the rules and the GM's previous decisions, is also unacceptable.

Also, while I'm thinking of it. <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/scarlettwaters16"">@ScarlettWaters16</a>, is there a limit for how long our characters can stay in a time period that is not their own? (You can PM me the answer if you would rather.)</div>"

This does not extend to his work though, as he is more than happy to follow orders while in uniform. If an observant person were to listen carefully while he speaks, they would hear a slight but well hidden accent.

Name: Ruth Hinkson
Age: 23 
Gender: Female 
Number: 7 
Associated Colour: Blue, a standard colour known to produce a calming effect, commonly associated with peace and logic but also austerity and coolness. 

Physical Description: Lanky and slim-hipped, Ruth stands at a modest 5'6, and leans her weight on her left foot giving her stance a somewhat lopsided appearence. Her hair is thin, and a light-blonde that makes the perhaps sickly pale palour of her skin all the more noticeable. Before the story she was dressed in pyjama bottoms, a grey shirt and a grey hoodie, leading to her deduction that she was either hijacked in her sleep or shortly before. Noticeably her leg brace, which she never wears to bed, has been securely fastened around her right leg. 

Personality: Quiet and reserved, Ruth is generally unwilling to communicate, the strangeness of the situation at hand making her paranoid and especially unable to cooperate with her fellow 'inmates'. She has a strong ability to remain calm however, and would exert her self-isolation by quietly slipping away rather than by force or lashing out. 

Known History: Born in Portland Oregon to an Accountant and a Nurse, from an early age Ruth suffered from deformed muscle developments in her right leg. As such, she's worn a leg brace for most of her life, the response from an uneducated society causing her to withdraw into herself, becoming the quiet woman she is today. Despite maintaining good grades through homeschooling, Ruth was never too enthusiastic about a subject in particular, with the intent of turning it into a career. At her parents urging however, she attended a community college, and became a freelance Accountant upon graduating. Encouraged to start leading an independent lifestyle, Ruth moved out of her parents house and into a small apartment where she's lived on her own ever since. 

Real History: Last thing Ruth remembers before waking up is her lying on her bed watching x-files on netflix.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 35
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Number:</span> 4

<span class=""bb-b"">Associated Color:</span> <font color=""gold"">Gold</font>, darker than the childish cheer and optimism of yellow, gold is commonly seen as representing the luxury and all the material riches associated with the precious metal. Feelings of elegance, prestige, and sophistication are evoked by the color, as well as extravagance and the excesses of wealth. 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span> Mona appears to be of at least partial Asian parentage, with her other parent either being Native-American or African-American,  her heritage grants her a unique golden copper skin tone. She's short, standing (barely) at 5'3'', however this has the advantage of making her rather average figure appear curvier and more buxom than would be normal. Her face is flat and heart shaped, with warm brown eyes (whose shape betray her Asian blood), her lips and nose are delicate, resembling the designs of a porcelain china doll-- to contrast her hair is wild, black and medium length, held in an unruly bun by scavenged rubber bands.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Mona is the typical 21st century tragic office drone; smart enough to comprehend her own shortcomings as a person as well as the soul crushing reality of modern day capitalism, but not smart enough to do anything about it. Mona can come off as detached because of this, often seeming to actively be trying to escape reality. She prefers to distract herself with fluff than address issues at hand, as she had become so numbed to her own fatalistic view of the world that she is unsure if she can even handle her own emotions anymore.

<span class=""bb-b"">Known History:</span> Mona has been working the same dead end desk jockey positions for a little over 10 years now. Before that? She dropped out of college. Before that? Childhood. And before that? She was born in some American military base in Germany. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Real History:</span> The last thing she remembers is getting ready to leave a movie theater. She had stayed behind to see if there were any post-credit scenes and told her friends to go ahead without her before the world went black. 

She doesn't have any recollection of which friends she was with, the theater she had gone to, or even which movie she had just seen.</div>"

Age: 23
Gender: Male
Number: 44
Associated Colour: Black, traditionally in Western culture it symbolises death, and in Japan it means mystery.
Physical Description: At 6' 1"", Thomas is slightly slender, with medium length black hair, that is put up a bit. His skin is pale, almost white. It is slightly cold to the touch. He has brown eyes, but is also wearing glasses. His face is slightly square, and he has black facial hair on most of the lower part of his face. He has short body hair over his chest, legs, and arms.
Personality: Thomas is shy and introverted, and is experiencing the onset of schizophrenia. He likes to stay on his own so that people don't think he's crazy, and when he does speak, it's very short.
Known History: Thomas grew up in northern Canada, where he was badly bullied in school. He then went to Toronto to attend university. Since finishing university, Thomas stayed in Toronto and worked in a computing company.

9991,Fractured Ego (Psychological thriller RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76040-fractured-ego-psychological-thriller-rp,['Casual'],2015-01-31 07:03:00,Bornlucky,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Eyes opened, breath softly, skin crawling from the cold air and a cool surface of an uncomfortably hard bed.
A young man groaned, shielding his eyes with his arm, the young man's head was throbbing as if he was mildly hungover. But he doesn't remember drinking the night before. He unshielded his eyes and took a look around. 

<font color=""#ec008c"">""what the hell?""</font> the young man mumbled as he finally gotten a decent look at his room. He sat up and was sitting up on top of a bed that should belong in a hospital which luckily he looks to be in. The room was small, it had two doors and a window, the young man guessed the doors was one was to the hallway another was a closet or bathroom. There was a small window and looking through only showing nothing but inky darkness. And a desk across the bed, which has a notebook on top of it.

The young man stood up in the middle of the room. First he tried to open the window. But as he tried to open it. It didn't budge at all it seemed it was more of a wall decoration than a useable window. 
<font color=""#ec008c"">""Damn, it was getting stuffy in here...""</font> He trailed off in defeat as he walked to the desk.

He touched the cover of the notebook, it wasn't made with the same paper as his sketchbooks, but it was decent enough papers if he felt like doodling. And he took the pen that was laying down next to the notebook it was magenta; he was surprised people made pens in that colour. He flipped through the pages of the notebook, taking note that the first page of the notebook was ripped out. 

He wrote down stuff, he always was better at collecting his thoughts when he write them down.

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
<font color=""#ec008c""><span class=""bb-i"">I decided to write down my thoughts since I'm a confused mess at the moment.
so I woke up in a hospital room, and I tried to find anything that would explain why I'm here, but I Found zip nada zilch. The windows are pretty much there to bring in light from the outside which I should mention is as dark as shit. There's no information saying why I'm here or even anything that has my name on it, which is Aden. Weird also is that I have nothing of mine here, not even my clothes I last remember having worn before getting here. The magenta shirt is a nice colour though. And there's not even a name band on my wrist.</span></font>
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

Aden looked at his left hand, a number was branded onto it, the numbers <font color=""#ec008c"">83</font>. It looked like a tattoo which was magenta in colour. <font color=""#ec008c"">""What the hell.""</font> He muttered. He put his pen and notebook away in a back pocket. He now just wants to leave. Everything was weird before, but the number is just pushing it for him. He ignored what he assumed was the closet and went past the tall door and left his room.

The hallway before him had the same dreary lighting and was long with many doors and almost nothing in the hallways when it came to decoration. Not even a chair or potted plant to liven up the place. He looked at his room door which has the room number of <font color=""#ec008c"">5183</font>. Easy to remember if he wants to returns, which he won't.  

Now where should the nearest stairwell be? So he can get out of this weird hospital.</div>"

He was confused, this wasn't his bedroom. He slowly sat up in an attempt to see more of the room that he had found himself in. <span class=""bb-i"">Where am I?</span> he thought to himself. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""peru"">Maybe it's all just a dream,</font></span> said someone. Thomas turned around. The room was empty. <span class=""bb-i"">Just the extra voice up there,</span> he thought.

Thomas got out of the bed, in order to get a better look of the room. <span class=""bb-i"">It looks like a hospital room</span>, he wondered. Thomas looked around, and saw that there were a couple of doors, and a window on the wall behind him. <span class=""bb-i"">Should I open it?</span> he asked himself, <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""peru"">No, don't,</font></span> the voice said, <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""peru"">it's too cold.</font></span>

As he looked round, Thomas could see a notebook on a table next to the bed that he had been in. It was pure black on the front and back, and, when he opened it, he could see that the first page had been ripped out. As he opened the notebook, he could see that there was something written on his hand. He looked closely at it, and could see the number 44 written on his hand. He ran his fingers over it, and it was smooth, almost as if it had always been there. Thomas put this aside, maybe it was an ID of some sort? He pocketed the notebook, and walked through one of the doors, and came to a corridor, which was completely silent. He looked round to his door, and saw that it had the number 4944 on a plaque that was attached to the door. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""peru"">Find other people!</font></span> the voice told him. So, he walked out of his room and down the corridor.</div>"
9993,Fractured Ego (Psychological thriller RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76040-fractured-ego-psychological-thriller-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-04 13:34:00,AuntFlavia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">By the time Michael was fully awake, he was sitting upright and blinking away the blurriness of sleep. Thoughts and reason returned slowly but surely, as he looked around the unfamiliar area to find that he was sitting in a hospital bed. 

<font color=""gray""><span class=""bb-i"">Again?...no, couldn't be...</span></font>he thought wearily. Michael looked at his left hand, flexing it as he read the number on it. <font color=""gray"">55</font>. His brow furrowed in confusion at the sight of it. With a thought, he checked his other wrist, but there was nothing. If this had been a legitimate hospital visit, he would have a wristband. <font color=""gray""><span class=""bb-i"">I also would probably be wearing a hospital gown.</span></font> Michael thought as gazed down at his new attire. A gray shirt with some decent slacks and shoes. 

Taking stock of the room, Michael raised himself from the bed and began to make mental notes. He approached the window and tried to open it to get his bearings, but with no success. He couldn't see much through it in any case. The only other thing that caught his eye was something that Michael took a large amount of comfort in: a notebook. They weren't required in his line of duty, but he always carried one anyway. 

The first page was torn out, and a pen sat next to it. As he began to write in the notebook, he saw with some surprise that the pen was writing in gray ink. 

<font color=""gray"">Awoke at _:_? no clock in room, outside not visible.
Small room, one bed, one window.
No wristband, no gown, no hospital staff.
New clothes. Shirt is gray, same color as pen.
Number 55 on left hand, not sure how it got there.

Last memories: Getting home and sitting down. I was filling out paperwork.</font>

With that, he stuck he pen inside the notebook and headed towards the door leading out of the room. No use in sitting around, he meant to find out how and why he was brought here, and fast. As he exited the room, he saw that the hallway he just entered was sparse, like the room he was just in. Turning around to look at the door, he examined a small plaque that read <font color=""gray"">5955</font>. Michael jotted the room number quickly down in his notebook, reflecting briefly on the fact that the last two numbers were the same two on his hand. 

Michael scowled in distaste. Whatever was going on here, he didn't like it one bit. Striding quickly down the hallway, he set out to find someone else. He simply couldn't be the only one here.</div>"
9994,Fractured Ego (Psychological thriller RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76040-fractured-ego-psychological-thriller-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-05 05:17:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Mona's eyes slowly opened to the gray ceiling of the unfamiliar room. The lighting was dark, and the bed she was on was uncomfortable. Anxiety began to build inside of her. Where was she? She knew she wasn't dreaming, she didn't dream, she hadn't had dreams in years, let alone lucid ones. As her eyes continued to adjust to the low light settings of the gray room they remained fixed on the point they had settled on when she first woke up. She felt a tinge of pain as she bit down on her tongue.

No, it couldn't be a dream.

Mona lay in the bed for a few more minutes, allowing as many memories as possible to return to her. She remembered... working? Dreading work. She had gone to a movie with some people-- work friends? And she was dreading going back to work, she had stayed behind in the theatre, and then... 

<font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-i"">...Blackness...</span></font>

With a sigh, Mona shifted to her side, observing the room with a disdainful interest. It was as bare as the ceiling, adorned only with a small metallic desk, a chair and a single window overlooking a featureless night. Her eyes grew wider, had she been kidnapped? She didn't care what was going on here, she just wanted to go home, or anywhere but this place, the irregular beating of her heat reminded her of the stress she was experiencing. Concern poured through her body, she slowly sat up in the bed and observed her own body. She had been undressed at some point, the alarm from this realization quickly faded away though, she didn't feel sore, as if she had been used. As she examined the blouse and pants she had been changed into, she couldn't help but admit the golden satin that glittered in the dim light was certainly more expensive than whatever she had had on before.

Gingerly, she brought up her hand to the back of her head, feeling that it was still in a bun, that whoever had done this, had left her hair as in, rubber bands and all.

Mona gave another sigh, her arm falling uselessly to her side in the bed. The room didn't appear to have any cameras, there was a door just to the left of the bed, and apparently someone had even placed a pen and pad neatly on the desk. Her heartbeat became more regular as she began to regain control of what she was feeling, she processed the situation, and her expression became more neutral.

She sighed a third time, muttering under her breath with it, <font color=""gold"">""Well, at least I wont need to go into the office today...""</font>

Getting up, Mona first moved towards the window, first merely looking out into the blackness to see if she could identify <span class=""bb-i"">where</span> it was that she had been taken to. After squinting failed to bring about even the slightest outline of another building or street sign in the spaceesque darkness, she attempted to open the window, again, resulting in failure. Moving over to the desk, Mona found herself recanting what she had felt earlier-- she <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> care why she was here, why her? As she looked down at the neatly placed notebook, and what appeared to be a gold-plated pen she wondered if perhaps she was having some fantastic lucid dream.

Taking the pen, she scribbled on the blank pages of the pad to discover that it's ink was the same glistening gold color as the clothing she had been changed into... she couldn't help but find the color soothing. However, it brought with it an increased heart rate, she dropped the pen to the floor, she brought the back of her hand to her eyes in horror, as she observed what could only be a brand tattooed on her hand in the same gold color as her clothes, and the pen, and...

She felt sick, she felt anxious and scared and she didn't know <span class=""bb-i"">what</span> she really felt inside, but she wanted to scream.

Running to a bare corner of the room, Mona retched the last of any food she had inside of her. Her heart beat fast and irregular, and  as she grippe her stomach the woman fell to her knees.

Mona sat in the corner for another few minutes after she had finished, wiping off whatever remained on her face with her sleeve. She panted as if she had just ran a marathon and her head throbbed. Had it always been throbbing? Eventually, Mona's mind went to something other than the beating of her hear and the sick feeling in her stomach. Notably, why her kidnapper would want her writing down anything. She moved slowly over to the pen, picking it up slowly, she placed it in the bun on her head. She left the notebook though, and found herself compelled to move toward the door, hopefully open to anywhere that wasn't this drab, gray... cell.

With her hand on the knob of the door, she briefly considered throwing the desk or the chair at the window as a last resort plan. Closing her eyes, Mona inhaled and hoped it wouldn't have to come to that.

She turned the knob...

Only to step, with relief, out of the small drab, gray room, into what appeared to be a nearly endless drab, gray hallway.

Mona let out a sigh.

<font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-i"">I need a smoke...</span></font></div>"
9995,Fractured Ego (Psychological thriller RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76040-fractured-ego-psychological-thriller-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-06 17:59:00,RomanAria,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When Anna's eyes opened, she was intensely disoriented. It took her several minutes for her to comprehend that she was staring at a dull gray, vaguely metallic ceiling panel. Then it took her several more to sit up and take stock of her situation. The room was small, with a dull metallic bedframe and dull metallic desk and chair. There was a window on the wall, but of course people wouldn't have kidnapped her and thrown her in a cell just to let her escape through the window. Not that she had the strength to break a window.
Anna noticed something on the desk before her attention was distracted by glimpsing her own clothing. A clingy crimson blouse, exactly the color of fresh blood. Blood. Her hands were scrabbling at the shirt and leggings, scrabbling ripping tearing at them, trying to get the bloody cloth off of her away from her skin. Her mind went white at some point during her panic attack and she collapsed back onto the bed.
When she regained her senses again she noticed dully that she had the fragments of a headache. Deliberately keeping her eyes on the ceiling so she wouldn't look at herself, Anna walked over to the desk to look at what she had seen earlier. A notebook and a pen. The pen was shiny red, the same color as her shirt--<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""crimson"">No no no don't think about it you'll panic!</font></span> She sighed and opened the notebook and picked up the pen. But she stopped before she could write anything, seeing the crimson number 13 on her hand. Feeling numb inside, she took the pen and just touched it to the page, seeing the drop of blood-colored ink it left on the page. In a horror she slammed the book shut and dropped the pen. But her curiosity got the better of her and she stuck the pen on the neckline of her blouse, tucked the notebook under her arm, and opened the door to the room to find herself in an empty, dull gray hallway.
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""crimson"">My god, where on earth am I?</font></span> but she doubted that her God could hear her, even as she doubted she was on earth.</div>"

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

so the idea for this RP is that your character awakened in a room alone in a hospital looking building. And they need to figure out a way out and to make sure they leave safe and mentally sound. This RP will be heavily character driven and explorative. So please no, simple characters or short posts. 
Also a thing about this RP is that most of the character's information will be hidden not only to the characters but hopefully to the other players. This is because I wish to keep secrets about the characters to the RP'ers so it can be a genuine mystery about them. 
I would like a smaller group, the Biggest I'm willing to work with is ten Characters. I hope you will join and have fun!

Rules:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>No Character killing without consent.</li><li>No god-modding or power playing, IE don't use meta-knowledge that isn't know to the character, or if there's a fight no auto hits or auto dodges.</li><li>Abstain from telling each other your character's extended histories.</li></ul>

Name: Astraea

History: Astraea, the celestial virgin, was the last of the immortals to live with humans during the Golden Age, one of the old Greek religion's five deteriorating Ages of Man. According to Ovid, Astraea abandoned the earth during the Iron Age. Fleeing from the new wickedness of humanity, she ascended to heaven to become the constellation Virgo. The nearby constellation Libra,[citation needed] reflected her symbolic association with Dike, who in Latin culture as Justitia is said to preside over the constellation. In the Tarot, the 8th card, Justice, with a figure of Justitia, can thus be considered related to the figure of Astraea on historical iconographic grounds.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Born from the Syrian mermaid goddess Dercetoand a human man, she was left on the waterfront by her loveless mother. She was wrapped in the warm wings of a dove, and fed with the dove's milk. Semiramis was then found and educated by the shepherd Simmas until she married Onnes, an old general; but she was then taken away by the Syrian king Ninus who fell in love with her thanks to her beautiful face. This forced Onnes to commit suicide, and after Semiramis earned the favors of the king with original battle plans, she married him and formally became queen. A few days after the marriage, she killed the king with poison, and reigned as a regent over Assyria for the next few decades. This is the oldest case of murder by poisoning in legends.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Shiro Fukushima (Western Order) / Fukushima Shiro (Eastern Order)
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18  
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Shiro's personality is a complicated one, very complicated indeed. He's socially awkward, never feeling to be a part of anything, the boy stays in the corner in classroom, though for that reason he managed to get some pretty high grades. While in the kendo club he reveals part of his true colors, having a much more challenging and violent side of him. Shiro's head is something twisted, he looks at the world as a putrid garden, however he acknowledges there are some flowers worth of being saved and those flowers are what makes him put his own head on the line. Violent, silent, cold, calculating, deadly, all those words could describe him, but distant, shy and caring could do it as well.
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>  He's a six foot tall, pale individual, when not wearing his uniform he's often seen with earplugs, a black t-shirt with white stripes, black jeans and sneakers(Summer outfit), or a huge white coat over a black shirt, with black pants and boots.(Winter outfit) He also wears that same coat over the school uniform. His hair is white as the snow, his distinguishing features are his bright red eyes, a pretty unusual color.

The trio will found themselves lying on hard ground. As they woke up, they discovered that they're in an abandoned medieval village. There are 3 gates around them but no matter they do their effort is futile, the gates are stuck on the ground just like decoration. The trio will then realize that they're pretty much stuck on the place. It seems that it is also silent around the village so they're alone. They must realize that they're not on their own world anymore. If they look up at the sky, they'll realize it because the night sky is green and the moon is red like blood. It will start to get windy and the atmosphere is starting to get even more scarier. Suddenly, a large creaking sound will be heard, more like one of the gates are opening. As they looked at the opening, a giant silhouette of a bull will be seen. No, it's not just a bull. It's a giant blue holding a big war axe and it's not friendly. It is about to kill them but without anything to fight, it's useless but until they heard the voice of their Personas(It's up to you what will they say) and they successfully summoned them.

Name: Astraea

History: Astraea, the celestial virgin, was the last of the immortals to live with humans during the Golden Age, one of the old Greek religion's five deteriorating Ages of Man. According to Ovid, Astraea abandoned the earth during the Iron Age. Fleeing from the new wickedness of humanity, she ascended to heaven to become the constellation Virgo. The nearby constellation Libra,[citation needed] reflected her symbolic association with Dike, who in Latin culture as Justitia is said to preside over the constellation. In the Tarot, the 8th card, Justice, with a figure of Justitia, can thus be considered related to the figure of Astraea on historical iconographic grounds.

10026,Persona: The Hidden World,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76045-persona-the-hidden-world,['Casual'],2015-02-01 01:06:00,Card Captor,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was without a doubt his most vivid dream ever. So vivid that it felt like his sense of touch worked here...but that should have been impossible. Even staggered to his feet as he looked around. The first thing that he noticed was the sky; if the sky itself being green wasn't enough of an indication that something funny was going on, then the red moon was. 'Just...what the hell is going on? What kind of dream <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> this?' He then noticed a gate leading out. However when he tried to open it, the gate failed to so much as budge. 'So I'm trapped in here, is that it?' the third thing he noticed was the presence of two other people, girls about his age by the looks of it. Although he didn't get the time to get a good look at them, since that's when the Minotaur dropped in to attack, right out of the very gate that Even was at. Suddenly, this didn't feel like a dream anymore, the absolute sense of dread he felt seemed far too real. 'This...this can't be happening' his eyes widened in fear 'this thing looks like it's going to kill me! This has to be a dream...so why does it feel so real!? I'm trapped in here with this monster, and there's no way I can fight back! It looks like...this could be the end' and with that, Even prepared himself for death...






""<span class=""bb-i"">...Fie, such an utter daw</span>""

""Eh?"" Even was caught off guard my the strange voice ""what the...who are you?""

""<span class=""bb-i"">Art thou an yea ranker daw then I had first thought?</span>""

""What...no! I'm not a fool. Also, why are you speaking in Shakespearean English?"" Even had just noticed that this strange voice was in fact not using Japanese, but a very old English dialect

""<span class=""bb-i"">'tis not important. what is important is that thou hast just surrender'd without a mortal arbitrament</span>"" 

""How do you expect me to fight something like that!? I don't have any combat training, or even a weapon?!""

""<span class=""bb-i"">That is what i am f'r</span>""

""Huh?""

""<span class=""bb-i"">Mine power is thy power. Lay-to it to combat this beast</span>""

""What!? But how!?""

""<span class=""bb-i"">Did I not betoken thou? Ah, it seems I forgot that. I am thou, and ye are I. Merely clepe f'r it, and mine power is at thy hest</span>"" and with that the voice disappeared.

Now that he wasn't talking to some person in his head anymore, he realized that nothing had changed since his conversation began. 'Like only an instant had past' he thought to himself as time began to move again. While he still had no idea what was going on, his instincts did seem to have some kind of clue. Standing his ground, he held his hand out with his palm facing up. Then, a strange blue card appeared floating right above it. Then, a single word seemed to explode in his mind, a singe word that demanded to be said...so he said it ""Per...so...na"" and then he crushed it in his hand. Right after that, a strange armored man appeared in the air behind him. Even had no idea why, but he felt like he could fight back now.

10027,Persona: The Hidden World,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76045-persona-the-hidden-world,['Casual'],2015-02-01 01:34:00,Hebigami Shiho,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">All right... This was just crazy. Noa asked herself, why was she there. More importantly, why were there other people with her? It didn't quite feel real, but then again, it didn't quite feel like a dream either. The first thing she thought, was of getting the other people with her out. When the only guy went to the gate and tried to open it, she tried to raise her voice to him. To encourage him, or else, to tell him she'd help her. But when the axe of the bull that appeared out of nowhere fell to the ground, almost beheading him, she felt like she really had to do something. Her mind told her to go there and help him, but her body wouldn't budge. Every alert in her head, even those of pure, raw instinct, were telling her to stay put, that that thing was too much for her, that he'd split her in two. When the axe was about to fall upon the boy, she looked away, eyes closed. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Thou art I.... I am thou.""</span> It came out of nowhere, no, more like it echoed in her head. <span class=""bb-i"">""I am Death itself... Poison is my weapon, and it should be yours too.""</span> It was the voice of a woman. 

<font color=""#92278f"">""W-who are you!? If... If you are here to help, then help him!""</font> She shouted, at whatever was there. She only got a chuckle for an answer at first. 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Of course, it wouldn't be much for me. I am Semiramis, I am etched into your soul .""</span>
<font color=""#92278f"">""Stop it with the cryptic words and just help us!""</font> She shouted, while holding her head and shaking it violently. She wanted to look at the guy in imminent danger, even though she felt separated from time in some way, but the image of him being cut in half was too much for her to even try and look. 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Then use your own power, use it and show them the power of Death.""</span>
<font color=""#92278f"">""I don't want that power! I don't even know how to use it!""</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">'I said it before... I am etched into your soul, the power is yours, and I shall guide your hand. Use it wisely.'</span> With a final chuckle, the voice slowly disappeared from Noa's head. She was uncertain of what had happened. 

But something compelled her to look up. She brought her eyes up again, and the boy held a blue card now. That image was burnt into her mind. She felt the power surging through her, the fear leaving her system. A smile came to her face. IT was just a hunch, but she still put her hands up, and in the space in between them, the same blue card as the other boy had appeared. <font color=""#92278f"">""This is... My power.</font> Yes, indeed it was. She knew what to do, even if it was something new for her. It almost felt obvious, as something she had done countless times before. She spun around, and hit the card with the side of her hand as she stopped spinning, effectively shattering it into pieces. <font color=""#92278f"">""PERSONA!""</font> She shouted, with joy. At that same moment, a figure appeared before her. It was a fair woman, dressed all in black, she seemed frail, and yet, dangerous. An aura of death was emanating from her. The same words repeated themselves in her mind. <span class=""bb-i"">'I am Death itself.</span> It truly seemed like so, now that Semiramis stood in front of her. She knew the commands to attack, somehow. <font color=""#92278f"">""Okay! Semiramis! Magaru!""</font> She shouted, anf her Persona move unto attack, putting her hands together and a sudden green burst coming out from her hands and aiming at the Bull. <font color=""#92278f"">""Yes! Go me!""</font>

<span class=""bb-s"">Yep, totally using the one from Fate</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Semiramis

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Born from the Syrian mermaid goddess Dercetoand a human man, she was left on the waterfront by her loveless mother. She was wrapped in the warm wings of a dove, and fed with the dove's milk. Semiramis was then found and educated by the shepherd Simmas until she married Onnes, an old general; but she was then taken away by the Syrian king Ninus who fell in love with her thanks to her beautiful face. This forced Onnes to commit suicide, and after Semiramis earned the favors of the king with original battle plans, she married him and formally became queen. A few days after the marriage, she killed the king with poison, and reigned as a regent over Assyria for the next few decades. This is the oldest case of murder by poisoning in legends.

""<span class=""bb-b"">HAHA FOOLISH HUMANS! SWORDS HAVE NO EFFECT ON ME!</span>"" he laughed at the trio. The Minotaur then used breath fire around the area scorching them all spiritually not physically since shadows attack your souls not the actual physical body. He would then do a glaring look at Noa and Semiramis and arrogantly asked ""<span class=""bb-b"">What do you got? sweet cheeks!</span>"". Semiramis formed a gust around the Minotaur and it seems that the Minotaur is hurt really bad. ""<span class=""bb-b"">RRAAAAGGGHHH!</span>"" the Minotaur screamed and he dropped on the ground unable to move.

Chihaya was disappointed that she used an ineffective attack against the Minotaur. She watched Even as he attacked with his sword which is also not effective since she already discovered it. After that, the Minotaur breath fire to them. She thought that she was about to die when she discovered that she has no burns around her body. It is hot and it kinds hurts but it actually does not affect your physical body. As the Minotaur got downed, he was open and it is a doubt that their attacks will miss(It's true). Chihaya would move forward and say ""<span class=""bb-b"">Guys he's open!</span>"".

(Don't worry this only takes my turn,so if you commenced an all out attack it will take your whole turn. To commence an all out attack, all enemies must be downed. All out attack is when all characters use their soulbound weapons to attack the shadow all in one and it does massive damage. The calculation for it is DEX.DMG OF ALL CHARACTERS x 10)

So... 15(Chihaya's DEX DMG) + 7(Even's DEX DMG) + 12(Noa's DEX DMG) = 34 x 10 = 340

""<span class=""bb-b"">Impossible! How can I be defeated by humans!?</span>"" was the Minotaur's last word and turned into black goo. The gates he opened suddenly shut but fear not, they're not trapped anymore. A portal appeared on the black goo allowing them to leave the Hidden World. If they entered the portal, they would find theirselves unconsciously sleeping from wherever they are and it seems that what all happened was just a nightmare but it really happened.</div>"

That portal looks like a way out, I think we should go in it."" Even made his way to the strange looking portal, stepping over the now harmless black goo ""I'm...I'm not sure if any of this was real or not, but if it is...and we meet on the other side, it would be nice if we could be friends. My name is Even, Even Caldwell. I'm British, so my family name is last."" After waiting for the other two girls to reply, he entered the portal.

It had been surprisingly easy. Maybe it was thanks to Semiramis? She didn't know what to make of it, since her attack had been the one to bring the bull down, effectively putting it in the tight spot. Still, the fact that they had to kill it made Noa a little sad, though her face didn't show it. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-i"">'It had to be done.'</span></font> She thought to herself. She was trying to negate the fact that she had killed something, anything at all. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-i"">'It would have killed us. It was it or us... and I'd rather not have it be us.'</span></font> She looked up when Even introduced himself. Noa had a faint feeling of having seen him somewhere before, but her head wasn't working right at the time. 

<font color=""#92278f"">""It'd be nice if it wasn't real.""</font> Noa said, looking up at the sky, feeling her heart clench. Why would she be given the power fo Death? She didn't want to think about it. <font color=""#92278f"">""But! We at least had the opportunity to make some new friends, right?""</font> She said, recovering her energy and looking back at her two companions, with a big smile in her face. <font color=""#92278f"">""We are already friends! It's impossible to have helped each other like that and not think that! I am Noa! Shiragami Noa! Japanesu~! Let's meet again, okay?""</font> Noa said, waving at the guy goodbye while he disappeared through the portal. <font color=""#92278f"">""I'm next then! Bye bye! See you on the other side!""</font>

Noa made her way to the portal, curiously poking it to make sure it was real. Sticky, but real all right. She put her body in and waved goodbye, in a rather energetic way, at the other girl, and a wide grin in her face. She suddenly felt the comfort of her bed again, and all of her worries started dissipating, though something else comes to her mind, that makes her blush even though she was already almost asleep. <font color=""#92278f""><span class=""bb-i"">'Uwaaah...

I looked at the other two, they were already knowing each other. I think I've been silent for too long, I think it is time to speak up. The boy with gold hair is Even, he is british since his last name was Caldwell and other one is Shiragami Noa, I'll call her Noa just to be short. She is obviously japanese like me but hey, no racism here, we're all the same. So I think we're all friends now since we did well on that ""short"" battle. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Nice work guys!

The next time I waked up, I was lying on my bed. I looked at the time and it's 6:00 AM. ""<span class=""bb-b"">WAAAAGGGHH! It's almost school day!</span>"" I panicked and just rushed off my bed. Running down the stairs and my mom heard me running which made her angry. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Hey no running! Chihaya!</span>"". ""<span class=""bb-b"">Sorry mom! I am on a rush!</span>"" I replied to her while running. I ate my breakfast really fast and rushed to the bathroom to do my daily morning routine like taking a bath, brushing my teeth, and combing my hair. After those things, I will put on my school uniform and just left the house running like crazy because I will be late for school.

As I arrived in my school still running, I rushed on to the bulletin board to know my class. Well, I have a habit to read everything so I will know who are my classmate,senpais and freshmen. So I took my time to read the whole bulletin board before proceeding to class.

Despite how real he remembered it feeling, he still wasn't sure what to make of it. 'Did I really just imagine all of that...or did it really happen?' Despite the kind of sort of agreement to met on the other side that the three of them made, he didn't see it as being very likely. After all, what were the odds of them all managing to find each other? It wasn't like he could go searching all of Japan for them. Not when he lacked both the funds, and the time to do something like that. The Even, the only way they could meet each other again was if they were all in this town...but what were the odds of that.

So it was understandable that Even was shocked beyond words when he saw one of the girls from last night in front of the class assignment board ""It...it's you..."" he managed to squeak out. While Kyokai wasn't small enough for everyone to know each other, it also wasn't big like, say Tokyo. Combine that with the fact that they apparently went to the same school, and Even found it hard to believe that he had never so much as seen this girl before last night</div>"

All done with now, she turned around to her house, and muttered slightly. <font color=""#92278f"">""I'll be back later.""</font> She shook her head and headed out, with her usual smile on her face. <font color=""#92278f"">""All right, off to another good day!""</font> She hurried to school. She wasn't later, but she wasn't exactly early. At least, her house was near. 

After going into the school building, Noa's mind derailed to last night. Was it a dream? A really vivid dream? Well, she would treat it as such for now. It'd be nice if she met the people in her dream, though. They seemed like fun. She skipped all the way inside, and when she approached the clasroom listings, she saw the same people from her dream yesterday. Even Cadwell and Chihaya Megumi, if her memory served her right. She just couldn't hold in her excitement when she saw both of them and dashed to reach them. <font color=""#92278f"">""Guuuys~! Hello!""</font> She jumped and put her arms around their necks. <font color=""#92278f"">""This is fate, right? This gotta be fate! Do you remember me? I am Noa!

The male had just woken up, only to glare at his house, an empty house as usual. Shiro had lived by himself for quite a while now, some relatives of his were paying his expenses as long as his grades remained high enough, not much of a problem after all he had no distractions during classroom. He also worked as a translator to get some extra cash.

The boy looked at the clock, 5:30 AM, he had enough time to eat something, take a shower, then leave, however he liked to arrive early, so instead he ran to the shower, got dressed, grabbed a slice of bread and ate on his way to school.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Hope Fountain Academy - Early Morning</span></div>

He was about to walk in the school gate with the same unenthusiastic expression of always, it looked like he was empty or something like that, when suddenlly he was dragged by a random bully grabbing him by his collar to a back alley nearby.-""FIRST VICTIM OF THE YEAR HAHA!""-The bully yelled with enthusiasm.-""Now give me your money and maybe I won't hurt you.""-Said the bully with an animalistic grin on his face. 

Was it possible that a person enjoyed bullying the weaker that much? Shiro analyzed the guy, he had a very muscular build, but seemed like one of those street thugs with no posture of combat at all, an easy targed, the bigger they are the bigger they fall. Shiro could be mistaken by his slender appearance but he was no weakling.-""Hurt me you say...""-He headbutted the bully right after making the same take two steps back, Shiro's unenthusiastic expression suddenlly turned into a small smirk-""Are you sure...<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">I AM THE ONE WHO'LL GET HURT?!</span></font>""-He quickly grabbed a shovel which was lying around for some reason and took it with his both hands like he was carrying a sword, the poor bully didn't even have a single second to react, he started hitting him with extremelly quick strikes, while laughing at each strike.-""COME ON?! WEREN'T YOU GONNA HURT ME?! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A ROTTEN PLANT IN THIS PUTRID GARDEN WE CALL LIFE! GET THAT?! A ROTTEN PLANT!""-The boy was unconscious and still wasn't enough for him, three more strikes to the head, he only stopped when he was bleeding and outcold on the ground.

""That's what you get for bullying people!""</div></div>

After that surge of rage he came immediatelly back to his unamused face and walked away, he cleaned some of the blood on his clothes, enough for anyone to notice and he walked in school, luckily he wasn't late. 

Shiro ran to the bulletin board and looked at the classroom listing looking for his own class.-""Hm...all right then.""-He moved his way right after but not before glaring at the squeaky student, but then shrugged it off and moved away. At classroom he grabbed the farthest place in the room, away from everyone else.</div>"

Katsuya was already in school and he is looking at the class assignment board. It was his final year as a high school student this year. Katsuya felt nothing and just sighed because nothing interesting on his life was happening due to his anti-social personality. He also tends to avoid people so he really doesn't have even a single friend. Well his only friends are his family so he doesn't feel lonely. He looked at the three people that are bonding together in the first day of school. Katsuya just ignored the three and just proceeded to his classroom. He chose the last seat on the last row just to avoid people. 

He just sat there waiting for classes to start. While waiting, he took his phone from his pocket and started fiddling with it hoping nobody will disturb him or they'll know the consequences.</div>"

The sound of a ticking clock was the only thing that could be heard as Mio sat in her favorite chair as she watched the grandfather clock across the room from her. finding it interesting to simply watch the hands as they slowly moved. Her mind elsewhere having wondered as she watched the clock it completely unaware that she needed to be leaving soon if she planned to make it school early. Mio liked getting to school early most days as she lacked anything else to do early in the morning that and it allowed her to get ready for her first class. Mio came back to reality when a big brown cat jumped into her lap, causing her to blink twice as she became aware of her surroundings and the time   

“<font color=""springgreen""><span class=""bb-i"">Awww, I wanted to get there before anyone else.</span></font>” She muttered to herself as she dumped the cat out of her lap much to the animal’s annoyance the cat huffing as it walked away. Getting to her feet and stretching Mio looked at the clock again which had lost all the appeal it had only moments ago making he feel annoyed give it had been so interesting. Giving a small yawn she went and fetched her book bag from her bedroom and left the house, Mio nearly forgetting to get the lunch her grandmother had made her on her way out.

<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">Hope Fountain Academy – Morning</div></span> 

Arriving at school Mio felt a little annoyed that she arrived later then she wanted seeing more students on the school grounds then she would have liked. Having a quick look around, she did still notice the school grounds where relatively empty which was good. Now if only the school was only this quite all the time she would be happier. Adjusting her book bag Mio walked up to the class listings and slow read over until she found her name and heading off before to many started to gather around the class listings. Heading to what would be her classroom for the year, she arrived to find it empty feeling a little pleased. Thinking for a moment Mio opted for the seat in the front row next to the window, the same place she had been given last year when she first arrived at this school having transferred in mid last year.

Sitting down Mio made herself comfortable as she could be at her new desk, before pulling out a book out of her bag and started to read. While reading she could not help but remember when she first arrived at this school that being a very uncomfortable day for her. Still Mio thought the people at school where nice enough many simply ignored her unless they wanted her for something or she needed one of them. It was simple that way and Mio was content with that and it made it easy to focus on her studies. Still if she could make a friend it would have been nice although she doubted it. Interacting with people was something Mio was not good at, although as she had gotten older she had slowly improved. 

Happy with reading Mio quickly lost herself in the pages of her book and would easily stay that until bell for class rang or someone spoke to her.</div>"

I was still reading the class assignments board when I heard a familiar voice right beside me. It was none other than Even Caldwell, the boy I met in my dream. It's kind of a surprising since this is only a small town. Maybe the dream was real? Meh, I don't know maybe it was some coincidence. It was followed by Noa's surprise, the other girl I met on my dream. She said it was fate, yeah maybe it is fate so I agreed. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Yeah maybe God made our fates intertwined</span>"". Looking again at the class assignment board, they're not my classmates that's too bad. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Hmmm but it seems that you and Even are classmates. Oh well, we can meet each other again on the cafeteria so you see there!</span>"" were my last words before proceeding to my class.

As I entered my classroom, I chose to sit in the front row so I can hear the teacher more clearly and see the lecture easily because I have a bad hearing and kind of a bad eyesight so this is my compatible seat. So let's get comfortable and enjoy this school year!

<span class=""bb-b"">RING! RING! RING!</span>
(lol escalated quickly)

""<span class=""bb-b"">Ok that's all for our lesson today, goodbye class</span>"" and obviously, we bowed to him and said goodbye as well. It is now break time! TO THE CAFETERIA! I ordered some food for Even and Noa as well. So if they arrived, they would see me sitting on a table with lots'a food on top of it. If one of them arrived I will greet them like this ""<span class=""bb-b"">Hello there! I've been waiting for you! Oh please, don't buy your food.

Checking the class assignment board, he found his classroom and made his way over there. In his stunned state, he failed to notice Noa's name. Once at his classroom, ho took a rear corner seat for himself 'this is going to be a crazy school year. I can just tell.' That was when Noa came in, to his supprise

While nothing bad had happened today, Even still felt off. Like he was, for lack of a better phrase, out of his element, so to say. The sheer bizarreness of what had happened today had left him feeling kind of subdued. However, things got even stranger when he got to the cafeteria; that Megumi girl had bought lunch for him and Noa ""t-thank you. I...I have no idea what to say"" he really didn't.

As the bell rang he immediatelly ran out of his classroom making his way to the cafeteria, some people greeted him, but he just ignored and kept walking, despite usually doing the sort of stuff he did before class started, beating in a very violent fashion, the bullies of school who approached him, he actually dragged himself some attention due to his past times in the Kendo Club, he was the star of the team and as such, lots of people wanted to talk to him, which was a total drag to him.

The male brought his lunch from home in a bento, like this he wouldn't have to wait on a goddamn line to taste some awful food. When arriving the cafeteria he looked quite bothered, the reason was, no empty tables where he could sit at. He eventually looked for one which seemed...at least tolerable, that was when he came across the table where Chihaya Megumi, a classmate of his, was sitting with a boy. He walked towards the table and asked with a tatiturn voice tone-""May I sit here? All the tables are full.""</div>"

Class was the same as always for Mio even if it was a new year. The girl finding herself or bored beyond all reason, finding it hard to keep her eyes open, but no matter how nice a quick nap looked Mio fought the urge. Mio kept herself awake by doodling in her note book in between writing things she thought where important, although today it was very little so there were more doodles then actual writing. By the time the lesson came close to the end Mio felt a little happy glad to have a break even if it didn’t show on her face.

<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">Hope Fountain Academy- Lunchtime</div></span>

Once the bell for lunch rang Mio set about packing up her things putting them all in the same order they had been before she took them out. With her things put away Mio made her way down to the cafeteria but stopped at the doors the entered to it, feeling her anxiety spike from the thought of just going inside and being near so many people. She mentally sighed as she grew slightly frustrated at herself; last year she had never been able to eat in here with the other students so had made it her goal to eat in the cafeteria this year. But now actually trying to do so was harder then she knew it should be all it was walking thought a set of doors and taking a seat somewhere. But Mio could not quite bring herself to open the doors.

“<font color=""springgreen""><span class=""bb-i"">Dam it. Just go in there Mio it not hard it just a door, just one little push and your in.</span></font>” She thought to herself wanting to go in but found whenever she thought about reaching for the door her resolve to eat in the cafeteria wavered, in the end Mio gave up turning to walk away only to plough right into another student.
“<font color=""springgreen"">Sorry. I didn’t see you.”</font> she stated to the student her tone and facial expression staying blank making it look like she didn’t care. Picking herself up Mio walked off deciding she’d eat on the roof like she used to last year. 

Up on the roof Mio ate her lunch in piece and become lost in her mind looking at the clouds, which resulted in her being late to class. Much to her embarrassment as she felt to many of her classmate looking at her as she apologized to the teacher.</div>"

Noa nodded fervently at her suggestion. <font color=""#92278f"">""Yeah, let's meet on the cafeteria later, senpai!""</font> She waved goodbye to Megumi as she walked away. Well, now, she was fairly sure that she could walk with Even to their classroom. It was just the fact that he had already left while she wasn't looking that broke that illusion apart. <font color=""#92278f"">""Hey, Even-kun! Wait for me!""</font> Noa shouted, even though Even was nowhere to be seen already. 

She should at least hurry to her classroom, though. She could reproach to Even how unthoughtful he was, later in the classroom, anyhow. After going into it, she merely saw where Even was, and then looked away with a 'hmph'. It would be a bit of a long day, something told Noa that. 

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

Later, in the cafeteria, she walked with Even because they were both headed in the same direction. All the while with her puffs cheeked, though more in joke than in actual discontent. Even was the first to take a sit in the table where Megumi was in, and she was about to sit there too when a white haired boy approached them. <font color=""#92278f"">""Sit down, sit down! The more the merrier, right, Megumi-senpai?""</font> Noa said, cheery as ever and taking a seat besides Even. <font color=""#92278f"">""Haha, I'd be lying if I said I don't feel kinda like that too. It was really, um, I'd say 'cool', if it hadn't been real...""</font> Noa started, not minding the new addition to their group who had nothing to do with what happened yesterday, <font color=""#92278f"">""but since it is indeed real, I'd call it, frightening at first. Then, maybe, exciting? I dunno.""</font> She said, laughing a bit and poking her tongue out of her mouth.</div>"

I am still on my classroom and this is where I am eating my lunch. I don't have to go to the cafeteria since I already have lunch and I doubt that there are vacant tables there. So I just ate my lunch alone but I don't seem to care since I am used to it. Whatever, it's not like somebody wants to be friends with a weirdo like me. Well nobody wants to be friends with me so be it. I don't have time for friends and I don't need friends to live. All I need is my family and myself. Tch, I can love without them.

Ok, that's enough thinking. Let's eat!</div>"

""<span class=""bb-b"">Don't worry, it's just a dream Even but it is strange that fate made us meet each other. Maybe it's a dream about destiny?

I really didn't mean to be so cold, I'm not normally like that at all.""

Shiro Fukushima, it's a pleasure...or whatever.""-And then at Chihaya's offer he shook his head.-""That...won't be necessary, I brought my own lunch from home.""-He held up the bento he had prepared last night and sat down right away. He pondered for a second about what Chihaya was shouting and what they had been talking about...""Persona"", he remembered that word from a psychology book he read once, but...why would high school students be talking about psychology? Well...maybe Chihaya could be wanting to become a psychologist but...he suddenlly stopped caring and began to eat his food in silence. He also notice the other boy who was sitting there, he seemed quite unnerved about something, but he decided not to ask. He honestly didn't try hard to start interacting.

A few seconds later a teacher would arrive, along with the bully he beated up early, he had a lot of bandages on his body, and seemed terrified just to apprach Shiro.-""Well...fuck.""-He already knew what was gonna happen.-""Fukushima! To the principal's office, now!""-The teacher yelled, the boy sighed heavily and stood up, but not before turning to Chihaya and the others.-""Well...at least thanks for letting me sit here.""-He turned back and followed the teacher.

Some students would start gossiping loud-""Geez...Fukushima again? Won't that guy ever stop causing problems?!""-A younger student then replied-""Yea, last year he went to the principal's office at least 9 times for beating the shit out of people."" - ""9 times?! How wasn't this guy expelled?""-And a third one then joined the conversation.-""Well, I heard he persuaded the principal, he wasn't even suspended! I heard it was something about defending himself since most of those people he hit were bullies or something like that...But still that dude is kinda scary sometimes...He doesn't have any friends, not even the people in the kendo club can be considered his friends, they are kinda afraid of him.""-And the gossip went on and on about him and what he did, could have done and would one day do.</div>"

These Personas are manifestation of the strong emotions of your characters more like alter egos, these mysterious creatures help you on your journey. The group them started to explore the Hidden World to know the truth between the Hidden and the kidnappings. Will our heroes succeed? or the case will be left unsolved forever?

Also, I already knew about Arthur being comparable with that Arcana, I checked it out first to see if it would make sense.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Standing at 5'8'', Sylvia is taller than some, but certainly isn't the most imposing figure to approach. Her figure is one of a toned athlete subjected to years of the complacency that comes with a regular job, the wear and tear that come with age, as well as the pounds of fat gained over still exercised muscle give her a slightly 'plump' appearance, especially around the midsection. Aside from the odd crack of bone or groan upon movement her body is generally free of the wrinkles that begin to appear around her age. Although, with rising of the dead, she has begun to spout a few gray hairs.

Sylvia has several tattoos on her back, legs and upper arms from her youth, she tends to keep these covered up with the black slacks and dark blouses stereotypical to teachers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sylvia Velázquez
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 41
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Occupation prior to apocalypse:</span> High school history teacher, co-tennis coach, and drama club sponsor

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Unaware and/or deceased;
<div class=""bb-indent"">She is estranged from her parents and doesn't feel hopeful that they've survived, but doesn't particularly care either way. She does have two younger siblings who she hopes have survived, but doesn't know either way. Slyvia's had a significant other killed herself early on.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Education:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Bachelor of Education (Secondary) in Curriculum and Instruction, Teacher Education</li><li>Teacher Education for Specific Subject Areas; Drama, History, and Social Science</li><li>Licensed instructor in academics and physical education</li><li>Trained and certified in CPR and basic first aid</li></ul>

<span class=""bb-b"">Fears:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Becoming a walker and hurting those she cares about.</li><li>Becoming more useless with age.</li><li>What is unknown about the walker sickness.</li><li>The death of children.</li><li>That her companions may have malicious intent.</li><li>Despite her age, Slyvia is still unnerved when she finds herself alone in the dark.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Disadvantages:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Sylvia's knowledge of guns is next to nothing, although this may be a front she puts on due to a simple disliking of guns, she may know more than she lets on, having been a member of the Black Panthers.</li><li>Her tendency to trust strangers may put her in dangerous situations.</li><li>Does not kill children or walker children.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Morals/religion:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>While not particularly religious, Sylvia does believe in respect for the dead, this includes at least trying to remember the deceased fondly, and conducting proper burials over burnings whenever possible.</li><li>Sees herself as morally responsible for seeking out the good nature in people and trying to help them.</li><li>As a rule, she does not follow the 'shoot first, ask questions later' philosophy, preferring diplomacy whenever possible.</li><li>Does not kill children or walker children.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Main weapon:</span> <a href=""http://lgcdn.maruccisports.com/media/cdn/products/MCBELI/product/primary.png"">Aluminum softball bat</a>, the bat is hollow and becoming dented from use, and has a weighted end.
Secondary weapon: N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> Large school book bag-

<span class=""bb-i"">Food/water:</span> 1/2 bottle of wine (0.75 lbs), 1 bottle of absinthe (1.5 lbs), 1 bottle of absinthe (repurposed and filled with water)(1.5 lbs), half eaten box of crackers (0.3 lbs)

<span class=""bb-i"">Misc Supplies:</span> 2 changes of clothes (3 lbs), assorted books/diaries (4 lbs), pen and pad (0.4 lbs), duct tape (0.25 lbs), other personal items (0.6 lbs), 1/2 pack of cigarettes and lighter (-- lbs)

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Despite her conservative catholic upbringing, or perhaps in spite of it, Sylvia is an extremely open and liberal individual, having herself never fully grown out of her involvement in the hippie and counter-culture movements of her early youth, she tempers wisdom granted to her through years of experience as a teacher with an almost childlike optimism and idealism. 

She doesn't have the nurturing qualities of a mother, not in full at least, but she exemplifies the qualities of an ideal teacher; she is an approachable, relatable, and friendly figure who strives to protect those around her, as well as teach and learn. Her sense of humor is one based on sarcasm, and as a naturally calming person, she often employs it to relieve tension.

Despite the breaking of society, Sylvia still believes people are intrinsically well-meaning.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Originally conceived in Nicaragua, Sylvia's parents were part of a large group of upper class citizens who fled the country to escape the violence of the the Nicaraguan Revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, and came to the US, allowing their daughter to be born into American citizenship. Sylvia only learned of her parent's native country through stories they would occasionally tell to her, and as she grew this would serve as a barrier between her and her parents.

Her parents spent her childhood working, maintaining their high position in society, leaving a young Sylvia to be raised by the private education system of California, and friends. In her early teens the extra educational opportunities her parents had bought her had thrown her several years ahead of most other students her age allowing her to graduate nearly 3 years before the typical college age, during this time her life took a major turning point as she met two of the greatest loves of her life; Tahliah Morris, Sylvia's first true love, introduced her to revolutionary ideologies and hippie philosophies. 

Sylvia became more and more immersed in Californian youth culture during her hiatus from school, and by the time she did start school, she had already joined up with the Black Panthers and practically lived at a commune. Her parents disapproved of this lifestyle and ultimately gave her a choice, between her beliefs and school. It's a decision Sylvia regrets, and she kept the beliefs, but she chose to have her parents continue paying for her schooling, at the cost of the meaningful relationships in her life, including that with the first person who she felt truly loved her.

Teaching wasn't her first passion, but it was one she could pursue with the options her parents had given her. After Sylvia graduated she moved as far away from her parents as she could afford-- this happened to have been Georgia, Atlanta's east side, specifically-- and there she has remained, moving up from the charter schools to Grady High School, in the 15ish years since. 

While she has been able to rebuild relationships from her past, as well as forming new ones, she was never able to quite get back into the world she was forced to leave behind.

<span class=""bb-b"">Addition info:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>The loss of her girlfirend, despite having happened months ago by this point, is still a sore subject for her</li><li>Sylvia exhibits borderline alcoholic tendencies</li><li>Sylvia is no stranger to drug use, and may seek out self medication if things get too stressful</li><li>Despite being raised in a home with parents native to Nicaragua, Sylvia can't speak Spanish. Her parent's reasoning for not teaching her being that she shouldn't have to speak it in a more 'civilized' country, like America.</li></ul>

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> At first glance J.J. Grimm looks like a western scoundrel, a lowlife drifter from the slums. His clothes are aged and dusty and worn from his travels. Underneath his unkempt appearance lies a healthy man, underneath the chiseled face, and penetrating coffee-color-eyes, one can see a thinking man looking back.

J.J. rarely combs or cuts his beard, other than the occasional bath when opportunity presents itself, he is not a man who cares about his appearance. He stands tall at six-foot-one, and his solid, compact physical frame can be attributed to the hard work and the harsh environment abroad.

His body is a canvas of tattoos and scars of his life’s journey. His tattoos are symbols of the hearts he’s broken, and the scars are records of his troubled life. Most notably is the most recent scar on his left temple, a reminder of an encounter with a drifter that nearly claimed his life.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Jonathan James Grimm (J.J.)
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 29 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Occupation prior to apocalypse:</span> United Planet - Environmentalist (South Africa)
<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Partner left behind abroad. Parents live in Georgia, their survival status is unclear. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Education:</span> College/Environmentalist

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> He knows how to use a gun, more importantly he knows how to kill. He’s a fairly good fighter though not the most fair. When it comes to defending his own life anything goes, including an unsuspecting knife to the back, or even a welling of tears if he needs to.

His background as an environmentalist has taught him how to care for the environment, agriculture, preserving natural life, building infrastructures, and obtained some knowledge of medicinal flora. Additionally, he has basic emergency rescue skills that he gained at the Red Cross training courses. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fears:</span>  He can’t help but think that his family and loved ones are dead, and this fear eats at his soul daily. He is struggling with the realization that the world will never be the same ever again - there is no normal anymore. He fears losing his humanity. He fears losing his mind.

<span class=""bb-b"">Disadvantages:</span> He has no loyalty but to himself, and this makes it difficult for anyone to trust him.
Morals/religion: J.J isn’t a religious individual but he is spiritual, he doesn’t pray he meditates. He believes in nature, and strangers may think he cares more for the flora and fauna than he does for human life. But that isn’t true. 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Main weapon:</span> He mainly uses a <a href=""http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/machete.jpg"">machete</a> to eliminate munchers, and is often with one in hand. So, I’m going to say that this is his main weapon. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Secondary weapon:</span> He carries a <a href=""http://i977.photobucket.com/albums/ae259/zdadthrice/79D038A8-607D-448C-BEA6-C731D54529AB-5605-000006840891A8D4.jpg"">standard police gun</a> that he took off a corpse (he also took the badge so he may say he was a cop), and only has one round of bullets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> J.J. doesn’t have much to claim except his secrets, the little possessions, trinkets and gadgets, and momentums he deems valuable. A <a href=""http://www.armygear.net/armygear/images/items/VTdumppouch-lg.jpg"">dump pouch</a> for his travels, a <a href=""http://s3.amazonaws.com/bureau-of-trade/p/2012/10/12/1917-brass-and-leather-pocket-telescope-640.jpg"">pocket telescope</a>, an <a href=""http://el-top.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/product_full/flashlight-nitecore-sens-cr-2_0.jpg"">LED flashlight</a>, some <a href=""http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/attachments/f38/22856d1273804974-cable-wire-rope-crimping-51bot5xeyol._sl500_aa300_.jpg"">cable rope</a>, a <a href=""#"">pocket blade</a>, and a <a href=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/01/Trench_watch_1916_gold.jpg"">watch</a> - which he cleverly ensconced inside his gear. But his obvious possession is the <a href=""http://www.durangosilver.com/images_templ/images/mens-tortoise-turquoise-bead-necklace.jpg"">necklace of beads</a> around his neck. He is often seen touching them if only to remind himself that he still has it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> J.J. has been many different versions of himself through his journey. He’s been a soldier, a brother, a lover, a killer, a thief, and along the way the one true factor that he can count on is his resolve - he has adopted a survivors mentality, living day to day like is his last. Accepting the madness of his choices without remorse - though rarely relies on impulse, preferring to think carefully before he acts, his actions always are to his benefit. He is nothing but a man trying to survive the times he lives in.

There is a saying that you cannot teach a dog new tricks, while that may be true, even the wildest dog won’t bite the hand that feeds them. Strangely enough this is how J.J. works. To win his loyalty all one need is to protect him even from himself, but if you betray him he will strike you like a cornered snake, quick and deadly.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> He is the only child of Marge and Thomas Grimm from Georgia. He didn’t have the best relationship with his parents growing up, he was a wild child often getting himself in mischief. He was arrested at the age of 15 for possession of illegal substance. He served two years at Georgia’s juvenile facility, incarcerated at the request of his parents into a rehabilitation program for delinquent youth. He served his time and surprisingly changed his ways after the eyeopening experienced.

He graduated with standard credits and attended the Georgia State University in Atlanta, even though he was from Athens. It was there that he developed a passion for the environment, mostly credited to Professor Chadwick, a woman he would later on have an affair with. It was Chadwick who introduced him to United Planet. He joined United Planet, a non-for-profit organization that offers volunteer work abroad as part of his studies as an environmentalist. She told him it would be a good experience for him, but her goal was to end the affair, something he failed to realize at the time. 

He was sent to Costa Rica. There he met Jock, a french student also an environmentalist, and the two developed an easy friendship that went a step beyond good friends. The two were inseparable and for a time J.J. was happy. But Jock got transferred and that was the end of that.

J.J. Saw the world as a volunteer environmentalist with United Planet. Coming home only for a week or two and feeling like a stranger in his own hometown. He often complained about the damaging pollution of the environment, the excessive waste of food, and materialistic dependency most Americans live with. He’d get angry at how ignorant most people are to what is really going on around the world. And so he would leave again to do what he loved believing he was making a difference in the world.

Then it happened. People were coming back from the dead and nobody knew what was happening until it was too late. At first he thought it was some sort of outbreak that had plagued the remote village in South Africa where he was stationed. His supervisors quickly got everyone out and sent them back home. He knew nothing of what was happening in the USA, but upon arrival he was forced into quarantine by the military. Then someone die in the facility and all hell broke lose. People wanted out, and at some point a riot exploded and somehow he made it out. He has been trying to get back to his hometown since.

<span class=""bb-b"">Addition info:</span> He is bisexual. Additionally, he has <a href=""https://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2009/2/6/1233917712412/The-new-ration-pack-issue-001.jpg"">72hr of rations</a> in his pouch, a water filter, first aid survival kit, dry sack with rain jacket, and rolled up sleeping bag.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Disadvantages:</span> 
- His lone wolf attitude and the fact that he trusts no one, may be problematic both for him and the group he's with.
<span class=""bb-b"">Morals/religion:</span> Due to all the bad things that happened in his life, Max lost his faith in God a long time ago. He used to be religious when he was younger but after important people in his life started dying and after certain prayers of his were never answered, Max decided to give up on God and trust only in himself. He is not afraid of death but wants to survive for as long as he can and for that to happen he is willing to do whatever is necesary, without hesitation. He has no problem killing walkers or anyone that might try to harm him or those he's fond of.

He dosen't use it much, only if the situation is desperate and his kukri is not enough. However Max is not very fond of it and seeks to replace it with the first chance he gets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Max is not the most talkative and sociable person. He likes to keep to himself most of the time and rarely opens up to people. He has a high level of distrust when it comes to strangers and always keeps a sharp eye on those that surround him, specifically the group he's in right now. However he wasn't always like this. Before Janet's death Max used to be the exact oposite of what he is right now. Her death very made him bitter and lonely. Mostly because he chose to be that way.  
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Born in Miami from an english mother and an american father, Max had violent tendencies since childhood. He was often found beating or chasing dogs or cats and even picking on other kids. But despite all that he was far from beying considered a bully. He was just a trouble-maker. To solve this problem his father thought it was a good idea to send him to learn how to fight. He believed that way Max could easily dispose of all that negative energy he had in him. And it worked...partially. Ater a couple of years spent as an amateur fighter, Max signed a contract with the UFC and debuted at the age of 22. He became imidieatly recognized for his agressive fighting style and his passion in the ring. Some experts said that if he keeps it up and nothing bad happends, then his career will be very fruitful. His parents didn't get the chance to see him become a great fighter as they died in a car crash. Not long after that, his older brother moved to New York and the two rarely kept in contact. 

Then he met Janet, one year younger then him, natural red hair, brown eyes. Max fell in love like a fool. Janet helped Max become a better person, more sociable, less agressive. She was a very positive influence for him. After 1 year of relationship they got married. Things finally seemed to go in the right direction in Max's life, he even became UFC Middleweight champion. However that didn't last for long. Five years ago, Janet died after a thief who tried to rob her stabbed her in the gut because she fought back. Max's world started to fall apart piece by piece. First Janet died, next he lost the Middleweight championship to his nr.1 contender. A couple of mo ths later he also lost the rematch for the title and he was hospitalised for a few days because of the injuries suffered. After he got out of the hospital, Max gave up on his UFC career, moved to Atlanta, got his license as an MMA instructor and tried to rebuild his life. But even so...he was nothing but a shadow of his former self. 

Then all hell broke loose. People started rising from the dead, and live one's were transforming into undead, like in movies and video games, only this time it was all real. Max managed to survive and get his ass out of Atlanta. He's been trying to survive ever since. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Addition info:</span>
- Max likes tattoos and has quite a few of them on his body;
- His entrance song back in his days as a UFC fighter was <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvF9PAxe5Ng"">Fuel</a> from Metallica;</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ahyoka Chotkey

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 31

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> female

<span class=""bb-b"">Occupation prior to apocalypse:</span> store manager

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Father - last seen when she left home. Believed to be dead
	Mother - last seen when she left home. Believed to be dead
	Brother - In Florida. Status unknown. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Education:</span> high school

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> growing up on a reserve greatly benefited Ahyoka in terms of skills. She is highly skilled in using a traditional bow and arrow, tracking and hunting. She can also make daggers and spears, given the right materials. She is good at being light on her feet and slipping in and out of small areas with little noise. She is good at calming those who are angry/panicked and she is able to make allies with almost anyone. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fears:</span> Even though she left her parents on bad terms, she is scared that they have become mindless monsters like the ones that plague the earth these days. She is also fearful that her brother may also be dead. She is scared of turning into one of those walkers and that this horror will never end. She is also fearful that others will take it upon themselves to take advantage of those who are vulnerable and soon the world will be a cold place full of those with no heart and no appreciation for the earth.

<span class=""bb-b"">Disadvantages:</span> She has a tenancy to trust others too soon or too much. She tries to see the good in people even if there may be no good to see. Her knowledge of firearms is vague (her reserve liked to hunt the traditional way and the only time she ever used a gun was when her and a friend went to a shooting range). She is often silent and does not take sides in arguments. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Morals/religion:</span> Being raised on the reserve, Ahyoka grew up with the mentality that mother nature and all things on this earth are spiritual and should be respected. When she left the reserve for the city, her ideals changed slightly but she still has a strong respect for nature. She holds an especial love for the sun. Other than that, she has no religious beliefs. She is however hesitant to kill a non-walker even if they pose a threat.

<span class=""bb-b"">Main weapon:</span> bow and arrows  

<span class=""bb-b"">Secondary weapon:</span> fire axe from her store 

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> 
	Large backpack containing:
	One can of canned beef, three cans of tomato soup, box of crackers, large canteen full of water, two bottles of pain killers, roll of gauze, blanket, needle and thread, personal items, change of clothes

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ahyoka can be summed up as a very passive and gentle person - for the most part. She does not like to kill, unless she absolutely has to. She is calm and collected 99% of the time and is often quiet in large group discussions or when being provoked. She is usually content to just watch others rather than speak. However, she is not unfriendly in this way. She is kind and tries to befriend each person she comes across. The way she sees it, we are all fighting this together. This mindset has yet to backfire on her but might in the future. She strongly dislikes when others fight and will refuse to take sides. If someone tries to argue with her, she will just remain silent and look at them until they’ve given up. Despite her quiet and calm demeanour, she has great determination. She loves nature and being outside. She is happy to work in a group setting but finds that she can be just as effective on her own. However, she knows she would grow lonely on her own so tends to stick with a  group. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Ahyoka was born on a Cherokee reserve in Georgia to a home of two happy parents and an overachieving older brother. Life on the reserve was good - but quickly grew old and boring. Ahyoka aspired to live in the city and experience a different life. 
When she was 14, her older brother left the reserve for a life in Florida which devastated their parents. However, Ahyoka felt left behind. She knew it would destroy her parents if she left too but knew that she would be miserable living the rest of her life on the reserve. At age 20, she left the reserve for Atlanta. Her parents told her that if she were to leave, she would not be welcome back. Despite the fact that she still loved her parents, Ahyoka left regardless. 
Once in the city, Ahyoka quickly learned that living on her own was hard - even harder without any post secondary education. She did not have the money to go to college either. She tried to go for acting jobs, something she had always wanted to do, but it was not a steady income. To make money in between acting jobs, Ahyoka got another job at a clothing store. Her hard efforts and determination promoted her all the way up to assistant manager within a matter of five years. Needless to say, she dropped acting and was focussed solely now on her job and her social life.
Living in the city brought a whole new social aspect to Ahyoka’s life. She gained numerous friends and, at the age of 23, had her first boyfriend. A man named Hotah who was also of native decent but was raised in the city. Ahyoka and Hotah dated for three years before getting engaged. Ahyoka married at the age of 26, her brother at her side but her parents nowhere in site. 
The next few years were pure bliss. The married life was treating Ahyoka well, she got promoted to manager, and was planning to have a baby with her husband. It all sounded too good to be true. That must have been because it was. Two years after marrying, Hotah was in a nearly fatal accident which caused him to lose most of his memory. He did not remember Ahyoka any more than he remembered his own mother. This was painful for Ahyoka but she loved him too much to give up on him. For the next eight months, she tried her hardest to restore things back to the way they were, perhaps get Hotah to remember. However, nothing seemed to work and one day, he confronted her saying; “It isn’t fair to you that you stay married to me when I can’t even remember our wedding. I’m sure I loved you in the past. I just don’t remember it. I think we should get a divorce.”
Having to let go of her marriage did something to Ahyoka - but not in the way you’d expect. Instead of locking herself in her apartment and not being able to function, she couldn’t seem to stop working. She constantly had to be doing something to take her mind off of it. She was at work around the clock and when she wasn’t, she was either volunteering or taking part in clubs or attending parties. She picked up archery again and even tried her hand at crafts like knitting and pottery. Things stayed this way for two years. Although she had more or less gotten over her failed marriage by this point, she still committed herself to her work and had not yet gotten into another relationship. She was at work, in her office, when it all happened. She had heard about some disease outbreak in the country but, being the workaholic she was, refused to stay home like many others did. 
While eating her lunch in the staff room, there was a loud thump against the door to the staff room that sounded continuously. Figuring it was a co worker trying to get in, she approached the door and opened it, only to have a walker reach for her and stumble after her as well as a few others that came in the open door. Horrified, Ahyoka realized what was going on. The walkers fit the description of those who were infected by the disease she had heard about. Taking the fire axe from the break room, Ahyoka had to break out the window in order to escape the walkers and sprinted to her car, speeding straight home. Since then, circumstances have forced her to leave the apartment building and get out of the city. That was how she met the group.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f6989d"">Morals/religion</font></span>: 
Born and raised as a Catholic, Segnen had a fairly religious background up until the age of 24 when she met Anderson. He helped her explore different types of religions, showing her the different forms God had been represented as and how each religion had their own beliefs. This became all too overwhelming, and with so many new paths and ideas being presented to her, she picked a completely different religion; Atheism. It allowed her to view and respect the different religions but never abide by them.

Her morals are the same as any; She cannot kill something that is still living in conscious, can't kill people she might have had a relationship with prior to becoming a Walker.
 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f6989d"">Main weapon</font></span>: Sledgehammer

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f6989d"">Personality</font></span>: She is more then willing to go the extra mile to ensure the safety of others, sometimes going out of her way to make sure everyone still has a piece of their mind. Segnen is often the charitable, motherly type of the group, overlooking small wrong doings and believing its possible to grow from the past. However this does not mean its easily forgotten. While she is wise to her mistakes, she is found constantly repeating her past. Always open to different ideas and meeting others, Segnen never believes gossip, regardless of the hard facts, and would rather see and judge from her own experiences. 

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f6989d"">Bio</font></span>: Segnen was first born in a small, portside city in Germany but was moved and was raised in a dusty little mid-state town with her parents and older sister at the age of 5. Her parents hoped to have their daughters peruse and live a better life there, but this proved to be nothing more then a hopeless dream, realizing the error of leaving their comfortable home in exchange for a realistic and rough reality.  When Segnens father and sister passed away some odd years later in a car accident, her mother was constantly working to allow her now only daughter to live the dream she and her husband wanted.

After three years of Med-school Segnen realized she didn't want to die living nothing more then a normal life and went searching for adventure, finding it with a young man named Anderson. At first it was a Cinderella story; fast cars, beautiful clothing, exotic adventures and wild parties. Soon however, the light began shinning in corners she never desired to see and found herself taking any drug she could get her hands on, all thanks to the same man she fell for. Come to find out those romantic evenings under the stars of different lands weren't the first for Anderson, since ever women he had been with was just a drug mule to him. When Segnen found out she threatened to leave him, which triggered the manipulative and abusive side of him she never imagined.

Years went by, and every time they fought she insisted she would leave, but just kept finding herself crawling back, even resulting in a pregnancy with two children. Thin promises and thick lies forced her into a life changing choice; Stay and raise their children under the hands of an abusive lover and father, or run away and raise them back in her hometown.  She chose the latter of the two, and Aater finding herself at the doorsteps of a rehab center one faithful night, Segnen managed to turn her life around. Even finding a new lover named Rebecca thanks to this, Segnens life was perfect. Being a stay at home wife, having a girlfriend and two children was fun, but the lack of adventure left her craving something more once again.

The strike of the undead came as both a blessing and a curse to her, leaving her alone in the world once more, but giving her a final chance at the life she saw as idle.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f6989d"">Addition info</font></span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>She has a tattoo of the word 'Verzeihen' on her wrist, and another on her other that says 'Verlernen'.

<span class=""bb-i"">A lean young man ambles along on long legs and cuts a crooked silhouette across a dilapidated rooftop. He wears a tattered navy jacket over a stained gray wife-beater and rough dark jeans. A white hat shields his face from the sun.

A black pack thumps against his back; a long tress of hair flies out behind him as he crumples in a roll after a decent descent.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></span> Xander is a pretty mellow individual, in that he doesn't like conflict and would prefer that people just shut up and not be assholes in the apocalypse. He finds that he lacks patience for human behavior issues now, and usually ends up seeing anyone who uselessly causes strife are ignorant, although he neither has nor shows any hostility for it, just mild annoyance. Despite that, he is cooperative and not afraid to respectfully share his opinion. He is not stupid but he does lack an education in any specific field. He's isn't necessarily curt, but he is not a specifically cheerful individual. When he's high, he tends to laugh and engage a bit more. 
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Morals/religion:</span></span> As someone who was homeless a few different times in a few bad places, Xander is far from saintly. He's never killed anyone living, although its doubtful he'd feel much remorse over it. He does feel that humanity's best chance is to work together, however, and does believe in good will and treating others with respect, kindness, and dignity. 
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Fears:</span></span> His most honest fear is getting eaten alive, after having watched it close hand. He fears being alone for extended periods of time. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span></span> Alexander Renold was born a girl of 17, Miranda Rush, in the backwoods of Florida. She was young, stupid, going nowhere, and now dependent on a 19 year old, Jack Renold, who had dropped out of high school. As an infant, Xander was often left in his crib for hours while his father worked all day and his mother either drank or gulped pills by the handful. Coming home to a screaming baby and an incoherent wife in the backyard every night drove his father mad, and he eventually devolved to slapping her around and drinking himself. Miranda hated the child and viewed him as a burden, and often relied on her mother to take care of him when she got ""too exhausted"" and need to ""relax,"" which was code for going on a binge with her friends and coming home almost comatose. However, her mother soon died and Miranda had no one to care for the child, and they didn't have enough money to pay for a sitter, so she was stuck at home with 3 year old Xander. 

Neglect and abuse was a theme in their household. Xander was blamed for everything. His mother often screamed at him that he was the cause of their money problems, despite the fact that she spent most of their food budget on alcohol. She blamed him for being married to an abusive man, and told the boy whenever his father hit her that it was the child's fault she was stuck with him. He spent a lot of time outside to get away from her, and luckily she didn't care enough about him to keep him inside. His father basically ignored him, or told him that his mother was just going through a rough time. He was doing chores and feeding himself by the age of six, while his mother blankly stared at a TV for most of the day. Whenever he asked for things, like food or clothes or school supplies, he was berated for being a burden. 

Around that time Alexander, his mother gave birth to his younger brother, Richard. Miranda LOVED her new baby boy - enough so that she called him a blessing from good. It did not take long for Xander to realize how much more his mother cared for his brother than for him. He confronted her about it at age ten, and that was when his life at home really went to hell. His mother screamed in his face for being ungrateful and unloving, and Xander has never really forgiven her for exploding to him merely pointing out his obvious abuse. Constant yelling and many, many physical altercations erupted between the two, and more than once Xander's father would beat the boy at her request. The young teen grew to resent his mother, and worked tirelessly to get a job, license, and car just to be free. 

Disorder at home kept the boy from focusing on school work which eventually led to him dropping out at 15. He passed the tests with flying colors, but never finished important projects, homework, or essay because he could get no work done with his mother raging at him over his every action. His parents didn't react except to say that now that he wasn't going to school he had to pay rent.  However, by then he had saved enough to accept a life sleeping in his car. He left that same day, to the shock of his parents. The threatened him should he ever go back, not that he ever did. His disowned them from his family in his mind at that point. 

A lack of interaction with his parents meant Xander sought support and approval through his social life. He had always had friends, but didn't fall into the best crowd. He never broke the law in a major way; never stole, never drove under the influence, he just smoked a lot of pot. He and his friends had little ambition, several of them didn't finish high school, but they all had the idea to save money and just travel across the states. He couched hopped for a while after he left home, at the same time their little group did everything from mowing lawns, selling pot, and working at a few different fast food joints to raise money for their ultimate road trip. 

A few years of debauchery and inebriation later, Xander and a group of four other people where in a van headed up the east coast. The group made it to Georgie before the outbreak. They were headed to Atlanta, but one night Xander left the car to piss and was jumped by a group of walkers. They kept moving, eventually running out of gas and started to just hike. He got separated from the group in a bigger city and came across this group.

She had followed them, silent throughout the night, and now rested down wind of them, so her scent wouldn't alert them to her present. Meat, fresh would be a welcome in the camp, when they didn't know if they would get it from a day to day basis. While Heloise didn't like to kill, she knew it was for survival. 

Everything had been about survival since that first day, since the out break. She could still remember the radio and television reports.

<span class=""bb-i"">""reports of canabolism have been given, police and the army are reporting to the scenes, and rumors state that nothing is slowing down these, what is assumed terrorist group.""</span>

And that last report rang in her ears, static filled and desperation rolling of the speaker.

<span class=""bb-i"">""go for the head! The head stops the dead! The head! Kill the brain, kill the dead!""</span>

She had been barricaded in her dorm room. She still didn't know how she had succeeded in escaping. But she had, and found the camp. And now they were relying on her to bring them fresh meat. She took aim of a deer, breathing in and out slowly, and let the arrow go, hitting a deer perfectly in its heart. It thrashed, and then buckled. The rest of the herd scattered, and a heloise rose, grinning. She picked up her gear, and stalked over to the deer. She wouldn't be able to carry it by herself, and dragging it would leave a trail of blood. 

Which might attact the walkers. but leaving the deer would attract one too. Or more. She thought for a moment, and then inspired, she took out a tarp which she had liberated from the camp, laid it out, and wrapped the deer in if, tying it up. She grinned, and began to drag it back to the camp. 

If she had looked, she would have seen the herd of walkers stumbling down the road which would eventually lead to their camp.</div>"

It was nothing special, ripped at least a bit like all the others and stained, but the grouping of them held a cozy quality in light of horrific memories of former homes and abandoned cities. A bit of smoke could be seen disappearing into the sweltering Georgia heat above the tent. Inside it, curled with his legs tucked up to his chest, was a young man with a small metal pipe cupped near his face. His lighter clicked and his lips pursed over the mouthpiece, sucking the smoke in deep. He let go of the lighter's plunger, continued to inhale for a moment, and then lowered the pipe and covered the bowl with his hand (to keep it from burning and wasting the precious smoke) while simultaneously gasping in a quick mouthful of fresher oxygen. His mouth stayed screwed closed for a moment before he exhaled and a cloud billowed from him. That time, he didn't cough. 
A few more minutes of the same routine followed until the limber man unfurled from the small opening. Just before he exited he gathered his things together and put them in his bag, and then arranged it and his rifle for easy retrieval. His long arms stretched to the sky and he yawned loudly before took a few uneven steps forward. The pungent smell of weed smoke clung to his clothes and hair, but it was dissipating. His eyes were pink and bloodshot, but most eyes were due to stress nowadays.  His arms rested at his sides casually as he walked into the center of the camp.

A small depression lined with stones was the cornerstone. A few misplaced chairs were scattered around, as were cut logs intended for the same purpose. Most of the seating was in shade near the treeline of the forest, and that was where he flopped down as if exhausted. He leaned forward, putting his elbows on his knees and his head in his hands. The girl with the red hair had left earlier. Heloise, as he remembered her name in the next thought, would come back with something if they were lucky. He looked to the pit, and figured that she was going to need a fire to take care of anything she brought back. He sighed and heaved forward toward the pit. A few half-burnt logs were already in it, and he knew one of the nearby cars held a stash of newspaper gathered from supply trips to the city. He stroleld over and gathered some in lightly crumbled balls, and then he went the treeline and picked up some small twigs. He went back to the fire pit and sat cross legged on the ground. He arranged the logs into a pyramid, and piled the tinder he had gathered underneath it.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Welcome to The Walking Dead - When the Dead Have Risen.</span> An RP based off of the series, The Walking Dead. 
In this RP, you will be traveling in a group of survivors. The RP will start off with the group thriving at a secluded camp a few weeks into the outbreak (much like season 1 and 2) until it becomes discovered and overrun by walkers. The initial motive will be to find other survivors and search for a cure but may later change to survival and defence from other human rivals. The RP will take place in Georgia. 
As of the current, I am GM and I have appointed Caits as CO GM. This is subject to change. 
All characters must be approved by GM. 
The group has <span class=""bb-b"">3/10</span> spots available. If all spots are taken and you still wish to be involved, your character can wander around individually until they encounter the group later on. Perhaps conflict with arise. Hmm. 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Rules - Please Read"" type=""button"">Rules - Please Read [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">1.) Don’t be an asshole. Simple as that. Whether it be in the IC or OOC, just try your best to be polite to everyone. And if you feel the need to correct someone or object to a decision/statement, please be polite about it. A mature discussion is far more beneficial than spitting rude comments at each other. 
2.) Keep it realistic. Please. Sure, a zombie apocalypse is the last thing you think of when the word “realistic” comes to mind but I’m sure you know what I mean. This includes no god-moding or anything of that nature. Make sure your characters are realistic as well as your abilities. 
3.) I would like big decisions/events to be decided by a dice or a randomized system. Such as if a character will survive, how they handle a situation, if the group will encounter a horde at a certain time, how a character will react to an event, etc. At the moment, I have no other means of doing this besides pickatrandom.com and I understand that is not a reliable means as I cannot show all of you what it had chosen, I can only tell you. If anyone has any other means of doing this that allows all participants of RP to view the results, please tell me. 
4.) If you wish to leave the RP, please inform us in the OOC. That way we won’t be waiting around for you to post and we can decide what to do with your character
5.) If your character happens to die, you are entitled to create another one and incorporation them into the RP somehow. However, I would like everyone to just control one character at a time. 
6.) There are really no boundaries when it comes to explicit content. Gore, swearing, sexual content, all that good stuff is permitted. Just keep a reign on it. I don’t really want to see your character going on a killing rampage just for the sake of blood splattering everywhere, your character throwing around f bombs like confetti on the fourth of July just to sound edgy, or some Fifty Shades of Grey shit going on. If you wish to include gore, coarse language, or sex in your posts, I just ask that you keep it tasteful. However if you feel the need to get really nitty gritty, RPG rules require you to take it to PM.

If you constantly break the rules (mostly 1,2, and 6), you will be warned but if you continue to break them you might be asked to leave.</div></div>

Everyone in the world is infected. You turn if you are bitten, scratched, or killed. Destroying the brain is the only way to truly kill a walker.

Very important: I would REALLY like diversity in the group. I request that, instead of going for the strong, heroic, cliche character, perhaps consider a more unique character. Characters that come to mind are Dale, Carol, and Hershel. Characters that aren’t necessarily eager to get their hands dirty and their age might put them at a disadvantage. Perhaps a character who’s morals prevent them from wanting to kill walkers? Nonetheless, they are still useful and important characters. I am going to outrule two types of characters: Soldiers and doctors. For obvious reasons. However, police officers and nurses/vets are permitted. Also, you may establish relationships with other player’s characters before we begin.
Some diverse characters might include: a pastor, a housewife, a police officer, nurse, accountant, mechanic, teacher, farmer, martial arts instructor, lawyer, student, drug dealer, firearm salesman, car salesman, actor/musician (what if they were famous? Hmm), homeless citizen, or an immigrant new to the country. Of course your character does not have to be one of those but that’s just an idea of how diverse the group can be. !!

I have an issue with this. Well, with ""Such as if a Character Will Survive"". That's kinda god modeling there. Only the owner of the character has a right to kill off their character. Yes, I know that people will have to die. But I don't want my character to be killed without my permission. I agree with everything else, but not that. 

If my character is going to be killed without my permission, then I don't wish to be in this.</div>"

I think the dice role adds to the roleplay, it adds the element of fate to the roleplay, think about it; we will be playing in a real life setting and like real life death can come at any moment. However, we should discuss how it would work beforehand.

My suggestion; When the group encounter a horde of walkers, there can be 3 options 1)Survive 2)Infection 3)Death - once GM uses ""Thrill Me"" it will randomly land on a number. 1) the group survives the attack with no casualties. 2) the group survives the attack but someone in the group becomes infected. 3) the group survives the attack but someone in the group dies in the battle. If 2 or 3 is landed, then GM and participants can vote on which character in group is most likely to die or become infected (unless someone volunteers).

Well I guess what I meant was how injured your character will be from an altercation. It can range from a few scrapes to a huge gash in the head or a missing limb. Those injuries will make a character weak and eventually could lead to them dying. However your character actually dying by a result of the randomized selection will not be an option, was never going to be an option.</div>"

Well as Caits pointed out, we can't really kill off a persons character if they do not give permission. But we can give them injuries that could lead to death later on. I like your idea for if we encounter a horde it would just have to be tweaked a bit.</div>"

It still is! The dice aren't controlling the direction of the story, I think they serve more to make things that would normally be out of the player's control now not entirely in the GM's control either.

Which, for me, actually adds a certain sense of realism to it all. Especially in TWD universe where sometimes random things happen for no discern able reason other than that they can.</div>"

They began as a small guild of monster hunters and tamers in Wolfthorne. Since then they have grown into an organisation of renown magi and mages. Archie made the cut to join them, but barely. He was thrown out when one of his Familiars mortally wounded the headmaster of the society. Now exiled, he spends his days wishing he were more competent instead of the biggest nuisance to have ever practised a magic art.

The king, shaking himself out of his stunned disbelief, quickly shouted to everyone to help get water to put out the fire. It was questionable at this point whether the people ran out of the courthouse because of panic or to get help. You are all in the currently burning courthouse.

You run out of the building to help get water from the closest well. As you approach the well, however, you notice monsters approaching from just beyond the well, and the men at the well already frantically trying to pull up water do not notice them! The monsters have already plowed through some people on their way, as evidenced by the smears and splatters of blood trailing behind them. Just as the men get their haul of water to the top of the well, the monsters are upon them...

It's not that he was a coward or anything, it was just that if he caught on fire he would take anyone near him down as well.  It was for the good of the many that he ran... er, declined to fight the fire.  

But now monsters were coming.  This was his job, and he was good at it(so far, anyway).  He knew with that crowd he could only fire once before needing to switch to his sword, there was no time to reload. 

Alphonse got in range and pulled his gun from his hip, and fired at one of the bat-winged monsters.

The bullet passed through the monster, hitting it square in its one eye.  It fell to the ground with a thump, moving no more as its dark blood oozed onto the ground.
Alphonse drew his sword to continue the fight.  </div>"

Datura couldn't help but sigh as soon as she took a step out of the flaming courthouse and into the monster-infected chaos. There were monsters rampaging all over with people running amok. With ashes dusting her clothes, she wanted nothing more than to go back to her hut and wash the soot away. Maybe if she slowly walked away...? 

Nope, that just wasn't possible - not with a giant bat monster coming her way. Gaping at the sight, she frantically grabbed one of her glass jars containing green liquefied ""medicine"" - the word ""medicine"" used very lightly since she has no idea what it does despite concocting it herself. Nevertheless, she threw it at the beast.

The monsters seemed to be getting smart, however, and were not attacking the three impromptu heroes who had fought back. The monster blinded by Datura writhed ground a few feet away from her, trying to rub its gigantic eye with its wings, two of the flying monsters were ripping at a man and woman who couldn't get away, and one hulking cyclops about twice the size of a man and four times as broad lumbered toward the well, too slow to have been incinerated along with the other monsters caught in Sylvester's explosion.

It seemed that these were the last remaining monsters, but the courthouse was starting to collapse and cries could be heard coming from inside!</div>"

""If I die, I'm haunting your arse!"" 

She took a deep breath and rushed through the burning doors.

[Roll 6]

Her clothes were lightly scorched. She had nearly set herself on fire with all those flames clinging to the doorway. ""Ah crud,"" she stomped on the blaze that found its way to the tail end of her outfit, effectively putting it out. Nevertheless, she made it in one unburnt piece. ""Hey, any people cooking in here?!

[rolled 5]
It stomped close, its arm flailing about, readying itself to slam down on its target. Suddenly, it tripped on the crater Sylvester's bomb had made earlier, planting its face into the cobblestone just to Sylvester's right and sliding until its arm bone lightly tapped Sylvester's shins.

Inside the courthouse...
[rolled 12--best case scenario]
There were a couple of small, crying children huddled in the only corner of the courthouse that was not ablaze. ""Help us!"" ""We can't get out!"" ""We're scared!!"" They were bawling uncontrollably, but they were altogether unharmed.</div>"

The cyclops promptly explodes, all of its remains being incinerated the moment the capsule erupts in a loud kaboom. If there were any sunglasses handy, he'd have taken one and put it on, but sadly, there were none. So he settled for walking away from the explosion, before running away when it actually did explode. ""FAT LOAD OF GOOD YOUR GUN AND BULLETS DID!"" Sylvester yells at Alphonse.</div>"

Alphonse was pointing his gun at the cyclops when Sylvester shouted at him.  ""Well,"" he said, shaking cyclops blood off of his arm, and not lowering his gun which was now aimed lazily in Sylvester's direction.  ""It would not have been half as messy if you had waited one second for me to pull the trigger.""

He shifted his gun's aim slightly and pulled the trigger.  The bullet ripped past Sylvester and hit one of the last two monsters.  It passed neatly through and embedded in the second monster, killing both.  

""Still,"" he continued drawling as if he hadn't just scored a sweet double kill, ""I made use of the bullet while you were busy blathering.""  

He strolled toward the fallen monsters, reloading his gun as he walked.  As he approached, the man that had been under attack was getting up from his defensive curl, and extended a hand to help the woman up.  Both were scratched and bit, with a few nasty gashes, but neither were vitally injured.  

The blood soaking the earth all around began to be washed away by a sudden rain, which steamed on the burning courthouse and lessened the flames. 

""Excellent,"" Alphonse said, holding his sword elegantly resting on his shoulders, and his gun ready and waiting in his other hand.  ""What else will rear its ugly head today?""</div>"

There was fire everywhere; so much that she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw a pair of children in a non-fiery pit of a corner. Nevertheless, she grabbed the youngsters, searching for a way out.

[Roll 11]

Suddenly, something hit her nose with a small <span class=""bb-i"">DRIP</span>. 

""What the--?"" Datura wrinkled her nose and stared at the ceiling in disbelief. Above, small drops of water came leaking from the gaps in the roof, replacing the flames that had completely engulfed it. From the shattered windows, she could see sprinkle of rain that quickly turned into a downpour. Most of the fire that blocked her escape was soon extinguished into ember, leaving only debris and bits of burnt wooden planks. 

With a quiet huff, she led the children out through the front door. With water dripping all by now,she stared at the two strangers-turned-heroes, looking disgruntled.  ""Are all those monstrosities gone? Cause I wouldn't like to see these children turn into meals.""</div>"

""Thank you, heroes! You have done a magnificent thing today!"" The king emerged from hiding in a nearby building. ""Much more magnificent than these fools!"" he spat as his embarrassed guards shuffled out behind him. ""Please, I know you have already done so much, but I must ask you to investigate this whole affair with Sarkkus. He lives in the Wizard's Tower to the east. Please, if you do this, I will reward you all handsomely [rolled 2], but unfortunately the supply house was destroyed as the monsters ran here, so I cannot supply you with anything you might need on your investigation... I apologize."" The king's head bowed sadly.

""I can only offer you one piece of assistance: the ancestral Wizard's Key."" The king pulled an ivory <a href=""http://images.metmuseum.org/CRDImages/md/web-large/sf10-100-133s1.jpg"">spiral key</a> from a string around his neck and handed it to Alphonse, who was closer to the building where the king was standing.

He wheezes and sits on a charred log, leaning his head on his hand. The grenade is gone, and his hair is sizzled. He looks through his bag and takes out a couple of ingredients and a metal container, trying to make a grenade for later.

(ROLLED TEN. POWAH NUMBAH!)

He creates the most powerful grenade he has ever created, stainless, shining and pure white. A single teardrop drips from his eye. He stores the Awe Inspiring Hand Grenade of Awe in his bag for an emergency later...And pulls out a piece of bread, having a snack.

He looked at the two impromptu heroes who had joined him in his usual monster slayer duties.  ""So, do you two actually want to join me on this quest?  We have to trek to the Wizard's Tower, no small feat on its own, confront a former court wizard, and possibly his hell-spawn.  We'll face dangers even <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> have never seen.  So, answer, will you two be my squires?""

((Rolled a nine, power number once more.))

Not only did the two unlikely heroes decide quite gladly to join his cause, but the man that Alphonse had saved earlier approached sheepishly, having overheard Al's speech of danger.  

""I may be no fighter,"" he said, holding his hat and wringing it in his hands nervously, ""But I can carry your things, or help in any way.  I'd do anything to keep me family safe from them monsters.""  

""What do you do?"" Al asked the man.  

""I'm a wood cutter, a carpenter.  Gerald the Carpenter, I'm called.""

""Excellent,"" Al replied, apparently not fully understanding what a carpenter actually does, ""Get your largest axe,"" he pulled his sword off of his belt and handed it to the man, ""And you can carry this for me as well.""  The man took it and walked off quickly.  He returned in a moment still clutching the sword, and now also carrying a five pound wood cutting axe.  

""Come now, squires, we should move while we still have daylight.""  He checked the sun to get his bearings, and determined the right way to go.

((Rolled a seven))

""The desert would be quicker, but I think the forest is less perilous, and as I have novice adventurers in my midst, we shall take that way.  Onward!""  He started marching, Gerald the Carpenter behind him, toward the woods on the edge of town.</div>"

But I… I would never—I can’t go! I have stuff to do, so many things! I got a business to run! I’m no hero!”

She flailed about, looking for any excuse. 

That whole courthouse/monster ordeal was a one-time deal. Besides, all she did was blind a bat and save a bunch of brats. She didn’t even save the brats per se; it was the rain that did most of the work!

“You!” She pointed accusingly at the knight. “What spell had you cast to make me agree to go on this… this madness? My precious garden won’t last long in my absence!” 

Datura quickly pointed to her home where her valued garden – the one she spent many months growing...

[Rolled 4]

Unfortunately, the spot she pointed at was just a pile of ashes and chard bricks. The front yard – where her garden was supposed to be – was nothing more than wilted weeds sitting in mud due to rampaging monsters and herds of panicked villagers stomping all over it in panic. WELL CRAP.

The forest sprawls before you for miles as you look out from the elevated city gates. Looking down, the path winds dangerously down a steep, rocky incline and leads straight into the old forest. In the distance, you can see the Wizard's tower glaring ominously at you from above the huge, ancient trees at the opposite side of the forest. The forest is populated with many different kinds of trees, and you can see a majority of oak, maple, birch, and ash trees filling out the canopy of the forest with several spruce and other tall pine trees protruding from the otherwise flat forest roof. Inside the ancient woods, the trees almost completely blot out the sun, making it perpetually dark with an occasional pillar of light passing through a rare wind-blown gap in the myriad leaves.

About half way through the trees, between the city and the tower, there runs a mighty river 20 feet deep and 60 feet wide, and [Rolled 8] there is a sturdy bridge connecting the path on either side.</div>"

On a particular rock, she felt something shifted beneath her and - before she should even scream - a large chunk of rock broke loose beneath her and began tearing down the hill, dragging the quack doctor along for the ride like some kind of surfer on a boogie board. Datura clung to the giant moving rock for dear life, the wind and locks of her hair smacking her in the face, until the boulder slowly came to a standstill.

It continued its charge, missing Alphonse and Datura as they flew aside but picking up Archie in its fearsome jaws. In the moments that he was in the beast's jaws, Archie could see the snake eyes inside the jaws staring at him just inches from him.<br/><br/>The beast cast Archie aside, leaving him with sickly puncture wounds all around his torso, and pawed the ground again. It may have been the party's imagination, but Archie's blood seemed to have some kind of strange effect on the beast, because its dark aura looked weaker... Lowering its head and brandishing its newly grown antler, the devil-stag opened its mouth wider than anything could possibly open its mouth and revealed that the two snake eyes inside its mouth had fused into one giant, glowing eye, bloodshot and unblinking. But the beast did not move. It stood there panting and letting the leftover blood drain from its mouth.

She opened it and forced the summoner to chug it down. <br/><br/>[Rolled 7]<br/><br/>As the potion jar was drained dry, the effects were immediate. The blood stopped pouring from the patient's massive wound and the injury slowly, very very slowly, started to close. <br/><br/>""Ha! It worked! Lucky bet!"" Datura said with her head held high; although, her words didn't exactly inspire much confidence, hope, or anything else for that matter.

They are taught all the history, wisdom, philosophy, math, science, and war strategies throughout their training. They are trained from age 13 until they are old enough to advise the king, and they are to remain solitary, celibate, and somber all their lives. Of course, because wizards have existed as royal advisers for so long, legends have developed around their mystery. Surely you have heard of the skillful and powerful magic they perform--magic that can keep monsters at bay and make enemies turn away in fear. Legend also claimed that if a wizard ever produced a child that the child would bring monsters to plague the land until the day it no longer remained. But of course there's no such thing as magic and certainly not curses. Not really, right?

It has been 10 years since the most recent wizard was selected as adviser to King Albert. Wizard Sarkkus was different compared to all the wizards of the past, and the kingdom had been attacked twice since he came to office--once by invaders from the south and another time by a horde of monsters! Traditional law gives a wizard three failures before they are expelled from office and executed. So when the third attack came just three days ago, again by monsters, King Albert was forced to perform to a formal execution. After the traditional law was read aloud before a crowd of citizens, the king asked if Sarkkus had any last words.

""Yes I do. I suppose it would be important to inform you all that I have a child.""

Gasps and cries of horror echoed throughout the crowd. Seeing the resulting chaos he caused, the wizard laughed aloud, beginning to levitate into the air, and, with a flash of fire, disappeared from before all of them.

Just then, the roars and howls of ravenous monsters were heard from the east. And to make matters worse, the courthouse was on fire...

One day after one particularly long mob chase, she decided to settle down for once after being chased to a different kingdom – in a graceful and lady-like manner, of course. She even grew something of a green thumb after settling for a while. Although, every so often, she'll pack up and travel once again to sell stuff.</div>"

Yeah, exactly what <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/gisk"">@Gisk</a> said. Before the game actually starts, the EM rolls all the players' power numbers and posts them on the scenario post (the first post in the OOC tab).

You know, I think you could handle the forest on your own, but I'll pick it back up when I come back. Go for it! :)

So if you roll three dice, you're accounting for three different items.  

But, I don't know how much items and equipment actually come into play in EnA, so it might be a moot point.</div>"

Alver is sort of quiet at first, mostly because he starts out suspicious of other people due to what his parents often warned him about and his previous encounters. Due to this, he can be sarcastic, sometimes a smart-ass, and let out a bit more of his dark sarcastic humor. He's also sometimes a bit mean and bitter when it comes to people who seem to feel overly sorry for themselves. He doesn't mean to be cruel, it just comes out that way. Often rebutting with 'Right, at least you can probably find someone who's like you. They even made groups for people like you. How many groups of albino do you see?' Since it's sometimes a lonely thought being the only one. He's never seen another person like him, can't even see if one is on the internet somewhere. Utter seclusion. It felt like he was part of a extinct species. However, he's a pretty mature, sweet and kind boy who's rather calm most of the time. Pretty level headed, and doesn't enjoy fights. He's naturally curious and adventurous and enjoys wandering about often, seeming to ignore any possible danger. Although he doesn't have a lot of social skills and finds it difficult on how to talk to others, he does want other people's company even for a little bit. Having been secluded most of his life. But he's always willing to lend a friendly ear to those who feel down, giving his own friendly advice and opinions. Quite a fatherly/brotherly figure towards those younger than him. He loves flowers, stargazing, singing and playing the piano. As well as practicing Judo his father taught him. He also likes animals. Despite his overall kind nature, he can be mischievous and enjoys teasing others and has a little  bit of dark humor. Despite others not usually enjoying his presence and sometimes hating his own appearance, he has a small bit of pride in his looks and never really attempts hiding his hair anymore, even growing it out into a longer length. He also enjoys taking advantage of those who are a bit scared of him from the 'demonic, ghost, vampire' rumors.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span>
On the day of Halloween, October 31st 1995, gave birth to a boy with striking white hair and very pale white skin. Eyes a pretty light lavender color that often seemed to change color depending on where the light struck them. Sometimes lavender, sometimes a very light pale blue, and even a tinge of red people would say. His parents were quite shocked to see such a pale baby and wondered if he was just unhealthy, having never seen someone as pale as a ghost. He wasn't, the was just born with the gene of extremely rare pigments of a albino.

So, his mother named him Alver, meaning ""White"" in Latin-American, along to fit with his last name, Starlis meaning Star.

His parents worried over his well being, as the doctors gave them proper diagnostics of possible defects of albinos, as well as studying their own research. They feared he would burn easily and wouldn't be able to see well since he had such low pigments in his eyes, as well as feared of rumors that the internet spread. Many saying that quite of bit of people sell albino's over to Africa because those people believe the organs of albinos are some sort of sacred healing items.

Due to this, his family moved out of the city to a small town in a more secluded house near a meadow. Both to be away from many people, and so he could grow in a healthier environment. As he grew up, Alver's parents rarely actually let him out of the house, especially during the day. He was home schooled in order to avoid other people as much as possible, knowing full and well that he would only be treated poorly over being a albino. Often leaving him home alone when they had to work. 

He was first allowed outside at the age of eight years old, when he begged his mother to take him shopping with her. However, she bundled him up in clothing. A coat, long pants, gloves, a scarf, sunglasses and a hat. At least it was during a chillier time of the season, but Alver detested it because he could hardly see anything or really move around with ease. Still, despite the downsides, he enjoyed being outside finally and helping his mother with shopping.

At one point, Alver saw a playground on the way home, asking his mother eagerly if he could go and play with the other children. She forbid it however, saying that it wasn't safe. When asked why, she answered 'Because you are different. They will hurt you.' Seeming to be absolutely sure he would just get bullied over his looks.

At the age of twelve, Alver grew a bit more adventurous. So when his parents went to work, he snuck out of the house during a cloudy day. He still wore long clothing, gloves, and brought a umbrella just in case. But felt more confident that he'd be fine during cloudy weather. The townsfolk had never seen Alver without heavy clothing covering his head and were shocked at what they saw. A child, pale as a ghost with such odd colored eyes and striking white hair had come of that house near the meadow. 

Rumors speed through town like a fire, some saying he was really a ghost, others claiming he must be a vampire for no one saw him in the sunlight without excessive clothing covering his white skin.

When Alver attempted to play with other children, they were actually scared of him. Some were brave enough to call him hurtful names, but they retreated and ran home whenever he drew closer. When his parents got home and heard of the rumors, they scolded Alver for leaving home. It was too late though as now the whole town had heard of the 'ghost' boy.

His father at that point, tried to teach him self defense moves he learned in the police force. Alver was a fairly a frail person, but he learned to be quick on his feet and how to at least avoid being pummeled. It was just another hobby to avoid boredom since he wasn't allow to do much like watch tv. His parents feared his eyes would get bad if he watched tv or play on a computer.

Despite many believing he was some sort of spawn of satin or some undead creature, Alver continued to grow like any normal boy, only really coming out during the night when he was old enough to feel to wander around. During his teens, he often wandered around night, enjoying being outdoors as well as get inspired for his regular hobby of painting. During his lonely years, he learned quite a few things. Painting, dancing, singing, and even how to play the piano and violin.

Often, he can be found during the night in the meadow. Either stargazing, singing or playing the violin. His father sadly passed away when he was fifteen, leaving his mother almost broken. Now, she spends most of her time away from home, hardly ever being around. Always working or something. Alver at first detested being further secluded, but soon enjoyed being able to be outside more. Though he does still mostly avoid other people, tired of their murmurs and odd looks. Most of the townsfolk a bit intimidated by him since he grew tall as a teen as well as being the son of two police officers. That and the 'demonic' rumors of him. As he matured, he found himself being mildly attracted to either gender, though seemed to find amusement to being with another male. Though he keeps his gender preferences a secret and hardly ever gets romantically involved with anyone.</div>"

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Bio/History/Personality:</span></span>From the moment he was born on the second of October in 1996, Aaron Deerling's parents had his life practically mapped out for him. They knew what school they were going to send him to, what kind of clothes he would wear, which instrument he was going to master and which teacher was going to help him master it. What they didn't count on was their son growing up with a serious lack of ambition. Aaron had no interest in succeeding professionally, though he does have a healthy interest in life. He would much rather sit in a camping chair, stare at the sky and listen to life than do anything academically satisfying. He is a sensual man that way, he enjoys touching things, looking at beautiful paintings, and listening to music. (that part his parents did succeed in hammering into his brain; love of the universal language, especially classical music and even Broadway musicals.)

It was his good fortune that his family decided to settle down in a small town. Aaron hates crowds and busy cities with a passion. Honking horns, people shouting, impatience, sometimes he just can't deal with it. Drama in general is a no-fly zone with Aaron. Before he turned eighteen, he was a nervous wreck. Every new day held something difficult to deal with, speaking in class, making excuses to teachers, even going into the store to buy something. It felt like everyone was watching him make an ass of himself. Thankfully, once he started working part time as a cashier at a convenience store close to home, most of these fears either dissipated or became bearable. He's on a new mission now; to relax.

However, when Aaron was growing up, there seemed to be something gnawing at him. It's difficult to describe a lack of something, but it's easy to feel it. Aaron felt it, and he heard things. Puberty came and went, and soon his started to hear his friends and peers talking about dating. Girls, checking out chicks, going to the movies, making out. It felt...foreign. Aaron understood what they were talking about, movies and television had taught him enough, and he had definitely gotten 'the talk' from his folks. But with him, it just didn't seem to click. There was no urge to do what they were doing. Dating and even kissing had no appeal to him, and not because he was busy doing other things. He had no fantasies about men, either. It wasn't about wanting something else, it was about not wanting anything at all.

For a long time, Aaron ignored it. He assumed that he just hadn't found someone he liked enough, or maybe he was just slower than everyone else, or probably everyone else was just obsessed with sex and he was the only normal one. In any case, one day he did a little research online and found a word: asexual. It was an eye opening evening, to find out in one fell swoop that he wasn't broken, that he wasn't wrong, and that he wasn't alone. It was so exciting to him that he felt like shouting it from the rooftops, or at least to his friends and parents. That's when the troubles started. And the questions, the disbelief, the doubt and the ostracizing. Half the school seemed to think he had been abused, or that he had been castrated. His parents prayed for him nightly. Aaron knew that it wasn't as anywhere near as bad as some people had it, but on certain days it definitely stung. Now he just tries to keep his head down and his mouth shut.

His father, Joel Deerling, has retired from his short but successful career as a professional public speaker. He now serves the community instead of working, helping out with the church, starting groups and helping out in general. His wife and Aaron's mother, Lisa, works full time as a saleswoman at a local car dealership. Aaron is currently seeing a therapist at his parents' request by the name of Dr. Charles Saunders.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The town's pastor was highly praised when he had a daughter born on a bright spring day on the 3rd of April, 1999. Definitely a gift from God as the Easter season approached. This daughter was to be named Reyna Carlson. The pastor (Robert Carlson) had met his wife (Priscilla Diaz) during a church mission trip. He brought her back from the Dominican Republic to marry her as soon as possible. The two had fell in love. Not even a year later, their one and only daughter was born. A sweet, kind, generous child Reyna grew up very naive to the world around her and often found herself in situations where her morals were pushed. 

Being the pastor's daughter was a job in itself. You always have to be at church every Sunday, and any other day that it was called for. You have to have a good reputation in the eyes of all the town members. You have to have a well behaved online profile. You have to be well groomed and manicured. You have to have good grades. You have to not have sex until marriage.

It was the last one Reyna had messed up on.

Quentin was a sweet, kind, generous child as Reyna was. He went to church every Sunday with his parents and got good grades. He was a star football player at the high school and quite the good looking boy. Quentin and Reyna had gotten quite the crush on one another as they grew up together. Both of their parents found it just fine that the two were together. Often, they joked about how one day the two would get married and take on the family's church and continue to grace the town with a good faith. 

Sex was something Reyna was clueless about, As Quentin fiddled with the button of her blouse in the basement of the church, she gasped in horror. <span class=""bb-i"">""No!""</span> she pushed away his hands rapidly, wrapping her arms around herself. This charade lasted a few months before the pressure finally kicked in. The two had unprotected sex, and before Reyna knew it she was pregnant.

With tears she came to her parents, between sobs she gasped, <span class=""bb-i"">""I don't know what to do.""</span> Her parents were outraged. Disgusted. Humiliated. They did what they only knew how to do- pray. They prayed as they purchased a ticket for their daughter. They prayed as they told the congregation she was just off on a mission trip. 

They prayed as their daughter boarded the plane back to her mother's homeland to receive an abortion.

Returning from her plane her parents greeted her as a new woman, she had been saved from this spawn inside of her. The whole congregation cheered and applaud at her return, curious of what her experience was. Through clenched teeth she explained how closer to God she felt, and how she was just happy she was now home. Reyna was a changed woman, not quite the sweet sixteen most girls in town were, but something different.</div>"

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">History</span></span>: The last child of three, Rei Mori was born on August the 23rd 1999. Even with an older brother and sister Rei was never made to feel like she was unwanted, at least not at first, as her parents spent equal time with their children. Though her family were Christian she never was never particularly devout nor sure that she truly believed in the existence of God. She has spent her life in this town, having never moved. It is something that frustrates her somewhat. 

Soon her parent's grew annoyed at their youngest and rather unspectacular child. Rei had no big ambitions like her older siblings. In fact from a young age she took a rather unbothered view of the world. She barely paid attention in class and really didn't try. The only things she enjoyed were art, swimming and martial arts (starting with Judo), and still are to some extent. Her parents did everything to try and make her try, to put some effort into something that they viewed as important. As they grew frustrated their fondness of their youngest began to diminish. Of course, they still paid attention to Rei. But now it was to make sure she wasn't failing at school as she seemed to have her mind set on. It's just that Rei doesn't really care.

Growing up Rei knew that there was something different about her. It wasn't very noticeable when she was a young child, she was comfortable enough as a girl. It was just those days, here and there, where she wanted to be a boy, or just didn't want to be either. It was as she aged that these periods of time where she didn't want to be female extended. At the age of ten he spent a year trying to convince people to call him by masculine pronouns and begging his parents to allow him to cut her hair.

Of course, they refused. His parents at first put it down as a stage but after a year they had their doubts. It was around this time that Rei began to feel slightly more feminine, but no less masculine, almost as if she felt both male and female at the same time. She didn't particularly care whether she was called she or he. But still she had the wish to cut her hair short, because in her mind it was more gender neutral than the longer style she wore it in. Her parent's still refused and began to try and work out what to do with their daughter who couldn't seem to decide what gender she wanted to be. They were in denial for a little longer before taking what action they felt they could; consulting the church. Given the advice to no allow their daughter to change as she pleased, and to pray for her, they set on this course of action. 

As she hit puberty the problem on got worse for Rei. With the hormones and the emotional effects of that she found that she felt different almost every day; switching from male to female to both to neither. It was a difficult time for her because with it came the beginning of sexual attraction and yet another problem - she was attracted to girls. In fact she found she was attracted to all genders. This added in with the mix of genders just made her parents disapprove of her more. She began to do even worse in school, if that was even possible. She never had many friends thus no friendships to damage. While on the outside she tried to be normal and tried to put on a show for people at school, because she didn't want to deal with the bullying, on the inside she was cracking. She began to put coping mechanisms into place, some harmful to herself, to deal with this.

While things are still not good for Rei they are beginning to improve. She has become more confident in herself and her changing gender, thankful for the fact that she retained a reasonably boyish figure and has a relatively gender neutral name, though it is far from accepted by the people around her. She has met a few people through the internet that are similar to her, gender fluid as she found out, and contacts them regularly in secret - after all if her parents knew they would confiscate her phone and laptop. She has finally put a label to her sexuality, pansexuality, though is yet to have a relationship with anyone of any gender. In a moment of rebellion she died her hair a dark blue-purple, though she didn't manage to cut it before her parent's caught her. Currently she is trying to be a boy as best as possible, wearing more masculine clothing, however she is beginning to feel more neutral gender wise. Even so she tries to just by, continuing as the person who quite frankly can't be bothered with anything.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Born January 1st, 1997 in a dingy, rundown room, Amy was exactly two months early. She had been born quickly, and before emergency services could arrive. She died for three minutes, and was brought back by paramedics. Pale, sickly, thin and small, it was thought that Amy wouldn't survive the night. 

She did. 

The first three months of her life were spent in hospital. She didn't open her eyes for three days, and she rarely made a sound. Her mother, a recovering drug addict, also spent considerable time in hospital, but made time every day to go and see Amy, and then when she was allowed to, to hold her. She named her Amy, but called her ""Bellafonte"" a word she had learned in high school Italian meaning ""beautiful source"".  Amy suffered several complications of her early birth, besides being small, she had difficulty suckling, her liver didn't function properly, nor did her pancreas and doctors feared that her mothers drug habit might cause damage as well, despite the fact her mother hadn't used drugs since she knew she was pregnant. 

When Amy opened her eyes, one was brown, the other green. When they were let out of the hospital, her mother scraped together enough money to by a small house in a small town, wanting a fresh start for both of them. 

As Amy grew, and survived, it become evident that she was a type 1 diabetic, perhaps due to the fact that her pancreas hadn't worked properly when she was born. She had endless complications with this, hospitalizations, and when she developed Asthma she nearly died. Doctors told her mother that it could have been a lot worse, but she was just glad Amy had survived once more. 

Amy didn't start school until she was 6, but it soon became apparent that she wasn't getting left behind, soon becoming one of the top students. Amy desperately wanted a pet, but her mother was afraid this would make her sick, and Amy soon stopped asking. She knew her mother worked hard, and tried to give her all she wanted, and she was grateful for that. 

Amy skipped three grades, so that by the time she was 15, she was in her second to last year of high school. When she turned sixteen, her mother finally gave her a dog. Her mother had hunted high and low, and had found a dog with matching eyes to her. Amy fell in love with him then and there. As she started her final year of school, Amy met a guy. The typical ""tough guy"", and like all 16 year old girls, she thought she was in love. 

He ended up beating her, and raping her, leaving her in the park, hurting and feeling so alone. It was only the thought of her mother, probably panicing over the lateness of the hour that had Amy gathering herself together, and getting home. Where she broke down, crying in her mothers arms. They went to the police, but as there was little evidence of the beating, and the rape could not be proven, not much was done. Amy ended up dropping out of school, unable to stand the rumors, the ridicule, unable to stand seeing his face every day. Her mother did her best at home school, but Amy was better off studying by herself. 

It was two months later when she found out she was pregnant. She broke down again, scared and lonely, and her mother encouraged her to do what she thought was best. Amy secluded herself from her mother, her dog whining at her door. It was hours before Amy came out again, and said she was keeping the baby. She finished off the school year at home, sat the exams at the school, once more braving the ridicule and bullying to gain her high school certificate. And then she gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, named Jackson. She took a two year break, spending as much time as she could with her son, and essentially being the best parent she could. She got a part time job at a newspaper, editing the articles, and had soon saved enough money to go to a good college, and did so via the internet. She worked part-time, studied and raised her son, with her mothers help, so that by the time she was 18 and her son 2, she had a place of her own

At any rumors, any nasty comments about ""White trash"" Or sexual slurs and innuendos, she merely smiled, and just continued on. 

Because of her diabetes and Asthma, she often appeared pale and sickly, and as if she could be easily broken. Her eyes drew some comments, but it was her sexual preference that, along with the fact she had been a teenage mum, drew shock and horror. Despite the fact that she had been going to church since she was a baby, she felt she wasn't welcome when it became evident she was pregnant, nor when her sexual preferences came out. Her argument was, and always has been, that while she was attracted to men, it just seemed they hurt her badly, and that women were more caring, and sympathetic to all that had happened to her.

10309,The Normal Life of Non-Normals,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76071-the-normal-life-of-non-normals,"['Modern', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'Small Group']",2015-02-01 21:11:00,Silver Fox,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Today had been another simple day, in which Alver Starlis slept through most of it. He had gotten used to being a night owl most of his life since he had little use to being awake during the daylight other than maybe classes. Even then, most of the time his classes took place at night, thanks to his special tutor his parents hired over the years. Besides, he always did enjoy the night, it was prettier than people gave it credit for. And it was away from curious eyes.

When he woke up, the pale colored boy yawned and raised his head a little, wearing nothing but a pair of black shorts. Having slept on his stomach, he propped himself up with his elbows as his pale lavender eyes blinked the sleep away. The dimly lit room, having darkened slightly as the sun lowered to be replaced by the moon and the night sky. Must be around evening. Giving a mild groan as his face flopped back down to his pillow, he rolled over onto his back and swung his legs over the bedside and stood up, stretching his tall body. Sliding his slender long fingers through his messy white hair, he gave a mumble as he walked to the bathroom. Grabbing a purple brush from the left slider from the pearly white sink, he brushed out his messy white hair until it was straight before removing the last of his clothing and getting into the shower. 

After washing himself thoroughly with with a soft cherry blossom scent, he dried himself off with a beige towel while walking back to his room, a similar towel around his waist. Moving to the closet to changed into some clothes to cover his almost naked lean, lightly toned body. Humming as he slipped on a pair of underwear, he wore a pair of white sweats and a long sleeve light brown turtleneck. Grabbing a hair band on his nightstand, he put up his long white hair in a loose low ponytail. Slipping on some white socks he took from his dresser and a pair of silk white gloves, he walked out of his room and went down the small hall that led to the living room and open kitchen. 

The living room had a couch and two cabinets full of books. Since there was no tv or computers, he had to spend a bit of his time reading. A black grand piano also sat in the corner, another hobby of his to relieve his boredom. As he walked to the kitchen, he grabbed a white bowl from the cupboard and poured some cereal in it then added milk. Sitting down at the lonely table, he ate his 'breakfast' in solitude, munching on the sugary crunchy cold food silently. It was indeed lonely, but one had to get used to it when one had a single mother who was a police officer.

Glancing toward the kitchen fridge, he saw a yellow sticky note with some words on them. Probably his mother letting him know she was going to be late again. Looking down at his bowl, he took another bite, pondering what to do tonight. The pale boy probably would of done what he always did and just enjoy solitude in the forests, away from the gawking eyes of the idiotic people of this bloody town. However, tonight was also supposedly a carnival, according to the newspaper. He didn't like people, and he wasn't used to crowds, but he did kinda want to experience a carnival. It was probably more fun with friends, but if he went he could at least say he had that experience. The catch was, he had to deal with those religious people who seemed to just enjoy judging him and making him some sort of attraction.  

'Oh look at the ghost of SaintKrest! Better watch out! Such a rare sight to see him around!' And blah blah. Still, it was only for one night. Can't be that bad right? He had that much tolerance. Glancing toward the time, he gave a few grumbles of disapproval, the tall man sighed before walking to the front door, grabbing his white coat from the coat rack and slipping it on.

He should be fine outside, it was dark so he should have no problem. Slipping on a pair of white and blue-striped tennis shoes before walking out door and locking it behind him.

It was more or less a peaceful walk to the church, if you don't count the people who were staring and whispering about him when he reached the more central of the town. They were promptly ignored however as he made his way to church for Youth Night. This was probably his first time actually attending such a event, but he was only doing it so he could attend the carnival.

As he drew closer and closer to the church, more and more people gathered, making his tall lean body tense as he could just feel the stares and hear their whispers. Once entering the church, he continued to ignore people but walked to the supervisor who was in charge of the Youths attending the little carnival trip. The man seemed surprised to see him, but also didn't say anything. Probably unsure what to say.

<font color=""plum"">""Is this where the Youth group is meeting for Youth night?""</font> Alver asked bluntly, his voice soft and silky but firm. Watching the man nod slowly, the tall boy grunted before crossing his arms and patiently waiting there.

Suddenly, he caught some whispers just around the corner of the church. The very pale man didn't have to look to know what was going on. For someone who was locked up all the time, his senses were quite good considering he didn't ruin them like most people his age do. So he could make out some of the hushed conversation, sounding younger. Probably middle schoolers.

<font color=""coral"">""Hey, it's that freakishly tall vampire that lives near the forest.""</font> came a boy'a hushed whisper.

<font color=""orange"">""Why's he here? I thought vampires can't come near the church or the cross?""</font> Another boy whispered.

<font color=""coral"">""Maybe it's some sort of magic spell. Hey, I dare you to go touch him.""</font> The first boy whispered.

<font color=""orange"">""What?! No way he may eat me or something!""</font> the second boy whined.

<font color=""coral"">""What are you, chicken? Come on! Do it! I'll even give you fifty bucks if you manage to do it. Better yet, make a decent enough attempt.""</font> the first boy challenge.

With a gulp, a middle schooler boy, probably a football player by the looks of things with short brown hair and brown eyes slowly tiptoed his way closer to the ghostly colored man.

Alver remained standing, arms crossed and lavender eyes closed. Pretending not to notice as he listened to the sloppy tiptoeing footsteps. He heard the nervous breathing draw closer until it was right next to him. Taking a few paused moments to allow he younger male poke him in the side, Alver snapped his eyes open and turned toward the boy with a fierce glare and hands outstretched, long slender fingers curved into makeshift claws.

<font color=""plum"">""Rawr!""</font> Alver hissed, before his frown turned into a minor a amused grin as the younger boy squealed like a little girl before bolting away along with his little friend. 

Huffing, the man straightened and crossed his arms, ignoring the dissapproving look he received from the youth group supervisor.</div>"
10310,The Normal Life of Non-Normals,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76071-the-normal-life-of-non-normals,"['Modern', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'Small Group']",2015-02-01 22:09:00,MarshiestMallow,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The house was quite, an oddity around the small house, considering a two year old boy lived there. It was neat, and clean, and Amy ""bellafonte"" Stevens sat making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, wrapping them up, and slipping them into a bag, along with a thermos of milk, and a bottle of water, as well as other variety of things one needed for a child. 

Amy was 18, and her son 2. She often recieced nasty comments from people who didn't know the circumstances, which Amy knew would just make it worse. The people of this town would just say that she was a demon who had lured the boy into lying with her, or some other ridiculous thing. They would say her son, her Jackie, was demon spawn and shun him. She knew her mother had lied, had said that when she came to the town with Amy barely out of the hospital that her father had died in an accident before she was born, simply to avoid the nastiness. 

Amy didn't have that luxury. Glancing at the time, she knew she had to wake Jackson up, to get him clean, dressed and looking nice. She was going to the youth night, and she wouldn't be shunned away. She had the right to go, and she wanted Jackson to see the carnival. Which was why she had put him down for a nap, so he could enjoy the night. They would sleep in tomorrow, and just have a lazy day. Rising, she went to her sons bedroom, on quite feet. She wasn't surprised to see the dog, Galahad, curled up on the bed with Jackson. 

She took a moment just to watch them, smiling. Jackson was hers, her little savior. He would have the best life she could give him. Unwilling to disturb the image of boy and dog, Amy nevertheless stepped in the room, causin Galahad to look up, with the same bi-coloured eyes as Amy herself had. As Amy gentle shook Jackson, Galahad rose, leaping down off the bed. Jackson woke slowly, groggily, and Amy whisked him into the bathroom, carrying him before he could put up a fight, the bathtub already filled with warm water. She striped him of his pijama's, and had him in the tub before there was even a groan or moan about a bath. 

She scrubbed him, and then dried and dressed him, <font color=""#f7941d"">""there baby, that wasn't so bad, was it?""</font> he grumbled, but trotted along after her as she leashed Galahad, made sure she had the bag of stuff, and her own handbag with her Inhaler, and insulin, as well as her purse and car keys, house keys. She didn't take the car, but instead, knowing it was a slight walk and wanting to spare Jackson that walk so he could enjoy the carvinal, she picked him up, resting him on one hip, holding Galahad's Leesh. 

She started out, just enjoying the cool night air, and had soon reached the church. She was slightly taken aback by the young, pale man, but had soon brushed that off. She could see others watching him, snickering and whispering. As they would with her. She went up to the supervisor, Son, dog and all, stating that she was here and attending the youth night, walking away before he could say anything. Jackson was watching the pale man, his green eyes alight with curiosity, and he asked in his child like voice <font color=""#6ecff6"">""mommy, is that man painted?""</font> God, his innocent acceptance of people just melted her heart.

<font color=""#f7941d"">""if I had to guess, Jackie, I would at he was born with Albinism. It means he has...none of the special things that give us our colour.""</font> she explained, trying to keep it simple.

<font color=""#6ecff6"">""so...so...he...it's like...white paint? It has no colour...""</font>

Amy smiled at Jackson, and said <font color=""#f7941d"">""sort of. Maybe we can talk with him later, at the carnival, for now let's not bother him. We can eat the sandwiches""</font> she said, setting Jackson down, and handing him a sandwich. he jumped on it eagerly, and had soon smeared his face with the peanut butter, the jelly. She cleaned him up, using wipes and cleaning his hands as well. She also took out s small bowl, pouring some water into it for Galahad. He lapped it up with the same eagerness that Jackson had tackled the sandwich with.

She could tell that some of the adults around were watching her, but she just went about caring for her son and dog, ignoring any whispers and critisms. She kept a good hold on Galahad, so he wouldn't run off or cause any trouble, and where Galahad was, Jackson stayed. He watched all the people with curiosity, holding her hand. She loved his curiosity, but she could never predict what would come out of his mouth. Which just made life exciting. 

She thought back to her mother this morning, saying she shouldn't go to the youth night, that she was just asking for the trouble of the town. Amy said she didn't care, that she deserved, that Jackson deserved, to be accepted, and to see a damn carnival. Her mother had grown Timid and almost frightful of the people of the town. Amy hadn't. She went about her day with Jackson, and would do so here, at the carnival. Her mother would say she was flaunting her and Jackson. And maybe that was true. But she was just trying to be a good mother for her son. And that was all that mattered to her.</div>"

Aaron Deerling was singing under his breath as he pushed the dust mop down the aisles. He weaved throughout Food 'n Stuff, the store where he worked, assistant manager keys jingling from his belt. The song was a bit out of his range, but that never stopped him before. It was after closing time, so he was alone in the store. He had locked the front doors and sent Ashley, the cashier, home. Technically he wasn't supposed to be in the store alone, but he really doubted that anything bad would happen. Besides, he enjoyed the quiet time. 

After he finished sweeping, Aaron locked the day's money in the store's safe and switched off the interior and exterior lights. He was actually pretty excited for tonight. It was Youth Night at the church again. Aaron attended both church and youth night frequently but quietly. He sometimes enjoyed himself, but it was mostly for his parents' peace of mind that he went. 

It was a little different tonight, though. They were all going to go to the town festival, and Aaron had actually been a bit giddy when they had announced the plan. The carnival games had always felt like a waste of time but he loved rides. Every time he went to a festival he felt like a kid again. No responsibilities, no expectations. Just get out and have some fun. 

Aaron did a final check up to make sure everything was secure before unlocking one of the doors, stepping out and locking it again. As he double checked the doors with one hand, he pulled out his cell phone and called home with the other. He tapped his feet and gazed up at the store as it rang, the voice of his father floating out of the speaker after a moment.

“Hello?”

“Hey, dad. I'm done at work, do you mind if I take the car straight to the church? I don't really feel like walking after all.”

“That's fine, Aaron. Just don't stay out all night.”

“Okay, thanks dad. See you later.” Aaron heard the sound of his father hanging up, so he ended the call and shoved the phone back into his blue Food 'n Stuff hoodie. He hadn't bothered changing out of it, it was perfect for a night like this. He was about to head for his dad's car in the empty parking lot when he saw a small mark on the outside wall of the store. Frowning, he looked closer at it, using the light of his cell phone to see what it was. 

Someone had written a word in very small text in sharpie. It simply read, 'FREAK'. 

Aaron exhaled slowly, mostly upset that he wouldn't be able to wash it off. Besides, it could've been much worse. 

Shrugging it off, he started towards the lonely car again, keeping his mind focused on the night ahead. 

---

Aaron rolled his father's car quietly into the church's parking lot, trying not to draw attention. Making an entrance wasn't really his thing. As he got out of the car, he gazed up at the church, brushing his shaggy blonde hair out of his eyes. 

It was a magisterial building. The architecture was striking, and it was very well maintained. If an outsider were to see it, even they would know that the church was treasured by this little town. He could see that a small cluster of people were gathering inside, so he steeled himself and stepped inside. 

As Aaron shuffled inside, his work shoes dragging on the interior carpet, he was relieved to see mostly familiar faces. He himself was a familiar face to the supervisor, who nodded at the sight of him. Aaron nodded back, though the sight of someone caught his eye. It was an incredibly tall, and very very pale young man. He easily towered over all of the adults in the group. Aaron's brow furrowed when some younger kids appeared to be harassing the guy, but soon he had scared them off pretty effectively.

A young woman about his age caught his eye as well. If Aaron guessed, he would say that she was about his age, which made the fact that she was currently cleaning off the face of a small boy a bit peculiar, at least for this town. When he saw the dog tagging along, he couldn't help but smile; he loved dogs. Most dogs were better than people. 

Feeling a bit exposed in the middle of the room, Aaron snuck into one of the corners, not wanting to be a bother to anyone. He simply waited and watched, soaking in the atmosphere of the room.</div>"

Most people didn't realize how much stress and dedication from being the church's leaders were. Pastor Robert Carlson had been going around town all day making deals with the carnival vendors to get a little deal for the kids attending tonight. His wife Priscilla had been busy cooking little snacks and making lemonades and punches alike. Reyna had been torn between the two; both helping her mother and going with her father when he needed her to put the extra puppy dog eyes.

The turn out tonight seemed that their efforts were well worth spent.

<div class=""bb-h3"">""Attention!""</div> the pastor called to the rowdy group of children ranging from 10-18. A few people remained talking, as Priscilla and Reyna joined the head of the house towards the center of the room. As attention drifted towards them, the room became more silent and Robert cleared his throat before starting his announcement. ""Welcome to our 5th annual youth night carnival experience!"" a few claps and cheers escaped before he continued, ""We are so blessed tonight, we have had the highest amount of people attending tonight than we have ever had!"" husband and wife grinned and Reyna copied them in enjoyment. Reyna enjoyed these type of nights, youth nights had been a cess pool of insults and hatred towards one another any other Friday night. ""I'd like to inform you all that I have managed to get every single person here 5 free tickets! These tickets can be used for ride, foods, or games. That I will leave up to you.""

People started to talk again and the Pastor raised his hands, ""Hey now, I'm not finished!"" he said, with a little bit of a harsh tone to his voice. ""Because of our attendance numbers tonight we had two volunteers tonight to help us out. We will be separating into smaller groups. 10 to 12 years olds will go with Mrs. Anne, go ahead and wave Anne!"" the woman waved as the appropriate age kids started to move towards her, and she gave the appropriate number of tickets to each kid. ""13 to 15 year olds will go with Mr. Erick over there, go ahead and wave to them as well Erick."" he commented, and the kids followed the same suite. ""For the 16-18 aged kids, I can assume you do not need any type of supervisor at the carnival but please stick with your group as much as you can, make sure everyone is included and having a good time.."" he commented, looking around the room directly at some of the newer faces, Alver included.

Handing a roll of tickets to Reyna, the pastor rattled on, ""You guys can get your tickets from my daughter Reyna."" a few snickers came from some of the older boys, and the man cleared his throat. ""More importantly have fun tonight, and if you can- encourage a few new people to come to church to our Saturday and or our Sunday service."" Priscilla piped up ending the announcement, ""See you at the carnival!"" 

As people dispersed, Robert and Priscilla began cleaning up the leftovers of food and any trash that been littered, before heading into the church to deal with some things before their own departure. Reyna stepped to the side as she started to hand out tickets to the people in her age group, <span class=""bb-i"">""Here you go.""</span> she stated every once in a while, a weak smile plastered on her face as she gave to some of the people who purposely made her life so badly.

The church cleared out pretty fast, leaving about 10 people around her age in the church. Most people went by themselves when they got to be older, or they we're going tonight with their family.</div>"

Rei turned slightly to glare at his mother as she spoke. They were going to the church for some stupid youth group outing that she was being forced to go to, along with her older sister. Her brother got out of it, of course, because he was nineteen and technically not a child any more even if he still lived at home. ""Why not?"" Rei frowned, glancing down at the clothing he was wearing. It was his normal attire, at least at the moment; baggy hoodie that was far too big for him, t-shirt and scruffy jeans. None of it was too tight and it was all in dark colours.

""Because it is not... good enough for an event like this."" His mum pursed her lips. ""Go put on something nicer. I know, there's that nice dress I bought you last week.""

""Mother, I do not want to wear a dress. As I have told you I am not-""

""We will have none of your nonsense tonight! Now go get changed.""

Rei was about to argue more, but the look on his mother's face told him that there was no winning. Stupid parents not understanding. Muttering under his breath he turned around and headed upstairs. He slowly got changed, even though he knew they were already running late, making a face as he looked at himself in the mirror. The dress was just too... girly for him. Maybe a few months ago he would have liked wearing it. But now? No, not at the moment. Running a hand through his long, blue-purple hair Rei grabbed his hoodie and scrunched it up into a ball as small as he could. There was no way he was going without something to cover this up.

His mother looked slightly happier as he reappeared, ushering him and his seventeen year older sister, Amaya, who looked quite excited about this event (only because she would see her boyfriend, Rei bet) out of the house and into the car. The conversation mostly surrounding clothing, and makeup, and school and all sorts of stupid stuff that Rei didn't care about at all. Eventually they got there and were quite promptly gotten out of the car with orders to behave (mostly directed at Rei, of course). They entered just in time to here something about getting tickets from Reyna. 

With his mother now absence Rei pulled his hoodie back on, pulling the hood forward. Thankfully it was big enough to mostly cover the stupid dress he had been forced to put on. He didn't even go to the youth group often unless forced to by his parents. He didn't really believe in any of that stuff even if he had been brought up Christian.

He moved over to get his tickets, with a murmured thank you, before moving to stand away from the other people.</div>"

Although most of it was just listening to the idiotic religious assholes gossiping and murmuring about others behind their backs. One of them being the pale colored man. The younger ones who still believed in silly rumors such as how he was some ghost, demon, vampire, some fallen angel shunned by God... Some thinking he had killed his own father. Some thinking he was some sort of deviant ready to cause some sort of trouble. Like kidnap their children and corrupt them in order to send them to hell. Some just making fun of his lack of color and freakishly tall slender stature.

Rotten Bastards.

It wasn't long until a young blonde girl came in with a little boy and a dog, walking to the supervisor and stating she was attending Youth Night before walking away. Alver noticed some additional whispers and the looks people gave around her. Since he wasn't quite involved with this town and religion in general, he wasn't quite sure what their problem was at first. After all, he was used to the obvious reason they had with just his born appearance. As the girl treated the boy in the motherly manner, he could slightly understand. The girl seemed a bit young to have a child, at least, according the people of SaintKrest. Something about not having sex before marriage, and at the proper age of eighteen when kids are considered adults. This girl didn't seem older then eighteen, nor did he see any father figure. The man could be at home, but the distasteful looks and whispers didn't seem to offer such a idea. The little boy also seemed to be at least around two years.

As they settled, Alver's lavender eyes slightly glanced toward the little boy as he felt eyes on him once again. The little green eyes were wide were curiosity, but it was filled with innocence instead of menace and judgement. He could barely make out the conversation over the several other hushed conversation, but he understood the boy was curious over the tall pale man. If the child wasn't basically a toddler, Alver probably would of been irritated like he mildly was with those middle schoolers, but this was just a child, almost a baby really. They were naturally curious about everything, and he felt more tolerant over it. Considering he did accept that he looked very different from the people the child was used to seeing with those information seeking eyes. 

Not too long, a blonde boy entered, settling himself in a corner and away from the center of the group. Alver probably would do the same, but it really didn't matter. His tall stature made him tower just about everyone here and his pale looks made him stick out even further like a sore thumb. Might as well be a beacon to a lighthouse in pitch black darkness.

It was then the pastor of this up and tidy church decided to call the place to attention, in which Alver minorly grunted and glanced toward the man as he prattled on. Listing off the age groups and new faces, looking to Alver as he went. In which the tall pale man rolled his lavender eyes, turning a brief red color as the light hit them oddly. Almost giving a soft innocent hum, considering his age was actually nineteen. Though he doubted any of these people knew such a thing.

As the pastors daughter moved to hand him his share of tickets, the pale man gingerly glanced down at her and took them.

Another youth joined the group, wearing quite the baggy hoodie, and was quite tiny compared to him. This one seemed a bit annoyed with being here, not that Alver could blame them. To be honest, Alver had trouble distinguishing this individual as a boy or girl. Deciding he didn't care, he brushed it aside.

It was then the groups were ushered outside, onto their group designated buses. Alver grumbled uncomfortably. The carnival wasn't too far off, but a quick bus ride made things easier for the little ones. Still, that didn't mean he had to like it. It wasn't like he rode vehicles that much, if at all. He walked everywhere. Riding around in some metal trap was noisy, and almost claustrophobic. Plus he was going to be trapped in it with a bunch of people he didn't know, most probably assholes. Despite this, he slowly got on, his long legs quickly carrying him to the back of the vehicle before sitting down on the right side by the window. Not wanting to be further uncomfortable with strangers at his back, he might as well sit where he could face everyone and keep a eye on them.

Now, unlike most, due to his freakishly tall stature, most bullies didn't bother him since he towered over them and the rumors usually scared them off. However, there was always a few brave assholes who loved picking fights. So he rather be face to face whenever that happened.

After everyone was on board, the buses started to move and head into it's designated target. The carnival. The pale tall man tensing as it moved, a frown crossing his smooth elegant face.</div>"

She didn't particularly care, and she lifted Jackson back onto her right hip, brushing his hair back from his face, his eyes. She made a note, as she did every few days to get his hair cut. And would eventually do so. He rested his head on her shoulder, and she smiled happily. 

She had seen one of the other teenagers watching her, however briefly, and seemed to take interest in Galahad. It didn't bother her, as it seemed innocent enough. She paid more attention to what the pastor was saying them anyone else, and when he said that they could get their tickets, she stepped forward, shrugging the bag of things onto her shoulder more, in an easy smooth gesture that didn't disturb Jackson, making sure she had a good grip Galahad's leash. 

She smiled at the young girl, who she recognised from the times she had been in the church, at sermons and other things, but didn't know her name. She gave a smile. Recently in an attempt to be friendly as well as to try and put the towns people at ease with her, she had started being polite. It sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. She took her ticket, and then made way to the buses, grabbing a seat, she had Galahad lie at her feet, and kept Jackson in her lap. It seemed better then having him sit beside her, where he could easily break away, and cause trouble. 

Jackson looked about, craning his neck around, and then settling into her. He seemed content now, as if satisfied with what he had seen. She chuckled lightly, and hugged him close. Galahad watched everything with his bi-coloured eyes, and Amy knew that they would be safe with him. She started to tell Jackson about the carnival as the bus started to move, clearly getting him excited and revved for the night. She wanted him to have fun, and to have the time of his life. 

She smoothed his hair, but that was a losing battle. Still, she thought she wouldn't be a mother of she didn't try. She kissed the top of his head, and smiled as e shifted to wrap his arms around her.</div>"

Superior, harsh, and beloved by the community. Well, most of them anyway. When he was done, Aaron pried himself away from his safe little corner and approached the pastor's daughter, who was handing out some of the tickets for the carnival. 

Aaron had seen her at pretty much all of the youth nights he attended, but he couldn't remember ever actually speaking to her. All that he remembered was that her name was Reyna. As he waited for his turn, he saw that she seemed to look a little depressed. It wasn't apparent at first, because she was smiling. Aaron had been working in retail for some time now though, so he knew a fake smile when he saw one. 

Aaron's mind raced as he approached her while he played with the zipper on his hoodie and tried to think of something he could say to her to cheer her up. He had drawn up a blank, however, and simply took his tickets, offering her a genuinely warm smile as he said “<span class=""bb-i"">Danke</span>.” and went on his way. 

Soon, everyone appeared to be ready to head to the carnival, so they all clamored onto the bus and took their seats, Aaron being the only one willing to sit in his favorite seat: the front. 

He plopped himself and his backpack down heavily on the seat and put his knees up against the barrier in front of him, curling up in a half-fetal position. A sea of voices began to trickle into the compressed air on the bus as everyone filed in. As they passed him, Aaron made note of the people who had caught his eye earlier, as well as someone with blue hair hidden by a hoodie who he hadn't seen earlier. 

Within a few short minutes, everyone was on board and the bus rumbled to life and began to move. As they began their journey, Aaron fell into a sort of self hypnosis as he watched the horizon pass by the window. Buildings soon gave way to trees, the sight of which brought a small but bright smile to his face. 

He was pulled out of his trance when someone from the seat behind him poked him in the shoulder. Aaron turned around, seeing an acquaintance he used to know from when he was in track. He didn't know him long enough to know his name, since he had to quit not long after the other guy joined. However, judging by the look on his face and the mischievous smile his friend was trying to hide, Aaron knew this conversation probably wasn't going to be about track. 

“What?” Aaron asked, his voice low from apprehension. 

“So, are you scared of girls or something? Or are you just a fa-”

“Neither.” Aaron interrupted him harshly, not wanting to let this jackass finish saying the dreaded 'f-word'. “And it's none of your business anyway.”

“That's just sad, man. I'll bet you never even kissed a girl.” The teen grinned toothily while his friend snickered like an idiot. 

Aaron turned away from them, returning his gaze to the window again. He clenched his hands together, trying to hide the fact that they were trembling with slowly boiling but contained anger. Luckily, the two had gotten distracted by something else as he took a deep breath and pushed the conversation away from his thoughts. It was pointless to dwell on other people's ignorance.

Aaron was pulled out of his little world when he felt the bus stop underneath him. Looking up, he was treated to a view of the carnival through the window. The group supervisor was talking to all of them, but none of it breached Aaron's reverie. 

A village of games, rides, and concession stands sat under the sky, the ferris wheel looming over all of it. People weaved though the stands and rides, usually followed by their kids or their friends. Bright happy flags danced lazily in the breeze as Aaron heard the faint sound of music playing throughout the fairgrounds. The dirt ground underneath everything was spotted with the occasional litter and hay, no doubt dragged from some of the more farm themed areas of the festival. 

Aaron was taking in the view when he finally noticed that people had started to leave the bus, so he climbed out with them and breathed freely in the open air once he was off the bus. The smell of kettle corn and fried dough filled his nostrils, washing away all thoughts of the morons from earlier. He didn't know where to start, but Aaron was going to make damn sure that it was going to be a good day from here on out.</div>"

Her parents would be at the carnival later with a booth set up for anyone interested in joining the church, as well as just enjoying festivities that were set.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Hey-before you go.""</span> Pastor Carlson called to his daughter, grabbing her wrist and bringing her to him. <span class=""bb-b"">""Don't get into any trouble tonight. You're already pissing me off with your attitude from earlier.""</span> he spoke in a harsh tone, before releasing her wrist, his scowl replaced by a smile as his wife approached them. <span class=""bb-b"">""Have fun mi amor.""</span> Priscilla cooed kissing her daughter on the forehead and smoothing her wild curls. Reyna nodded quickly and took off towards the bus, being the last to board she sat up close to the front, not taking any time to examine everyone, besides the bus driver.

The ride wasn't very far but Reyna thanked the driver very graciously, as she took stand in the front of the aisle. <span class=""bb-i"">""M-my father said that we should all stick together tonight.""</span> she spoke not much louder than the average conversation between friends on the bus. As people began to get up they pushed past her with not much thought, she was a small girl and not very forceful when it came to things like this. Getting off the bus she called after a few of the girls close to her age, <span class=""bb-i"">""I have extra tickets! I can get you things!""</span> she called not getting much of a response. A few boys followed off the bus, giving her a push and grope while they walked through. One of them being Quentin himself. <span class=""bb-b"">""You can get us something.""</span> he snickered as the group of imbeciles grabbed at their crotches. 

Reyna backed up against the bus, as the group laughed and walked away- enjoying their own perverse jokes and form of entertainment. It wasn't long after the very tall pale man, a blonde boy, a young woman with a child and dog, and finally a purple haired dark hooded person (Pearleane assumes girl) adorning a dress came off the bus. Granted, Pearleane's father would have a heart attack if he saw that this was the group she wanted to be paired off with, but she desperately wanted to not be alone tonight. 

Three of them she recognized; One being from her grade at school, and the other two frequent members of her church. It was required of her to remember many of the names of the members because it made them feel more 'welcomed'. Though it wasn't always the case. Before this group had the chance to go off on their ways Reyna raised her voice as loud as she could, <span class=""bb-i"">""Can we be a group!?""</span> she exclaimed, her hand quickly reaching to her lips, almost surprised at the comment that had came from her lips. <span class=""bb-i"">""I have lots of extra tickets...""</span> she commented, <span class=""bb-i"">""We can get lots of food and go on all the rides.""</span> Reyna held up the extra roll of tickets she was supposed to give back to her father, but held on to.</div>"

Annoying, didn't they make taller buses? Luckily, no one seemed to bother him other than the little annoying snickers and gawking eyes. It was much too loud in the bus, his ears feeling like they were bleeding by the nosy chatter of the none other people in the confined space. How can people stand being on buses?!

As they finally arrived at the carnival and the obnoxious vehicle came to a halt, the ghostly man gave a soft sigh of relief as he awaited for everyone else to get off before he stood and walked out as well. Glad to be out in the open and in the fresh air, his long tall body stretched out, glad he was able to stand tall again. As it seemed the group was already falling apart as five other teenagers ran off, not before making fun of that pastor's girl. Rolling his lavender eyes, he was about to go off on his own, since he didn't like the idea of having to be in a group, but soon paused as there was a sudden scream. In which case he flinched at the loud sound, and grumbled before turning his gaze down to the much darker colored person who had caused this loud sound.

Just about begging for the remaining people to be in a group with her. Which included himself, the girl with the kid, that blonde boy, and the purple haired hoodie person. Nice combo indeed. Her annoying dad probably won't appreciate a band of misfits. Well except the blonde guy, he seemed normal in this towns eyes. Nothing seemed non-normal by looking standard. The others yeah.

Looking down at her with slightly narrowed lavender eyes, the pale boy thoughtfully pondered what to do. This girl had even resorted into bribery with the group of misfits in order to get them to stay. By how she was treated, he guessed he could understand why. Alver didn't like people, he never really hung out with them before. He hadn't even been this close to someone since he was a child when he tried to interact. After all, most just made fun of him, and he was a bit nervous of some idiots thinking his organs were sellable for some good luck charm.

However, she didn't seem bad, despite being that jackasses daughter. Nor did the rest of these people, well maybe the short hoodie person who radiated irritation. On the plus side, if he did agree to accompany her, he might actually know what the hell to so at a carnival. Plus, it would be a sore thorn in her fathers side so that would also be amusing.

Finally deciding, the tall man brushed his long white hair back behind his ear and crossed his arms. He didn't say anything, but he didn't move either.</div>"

He barked, clearly in response to so much stimuli, and Jackson gave a big, child like <font color=""#6ecff6"">""wooow!""</font> causing Amy to smile. This was a good thing. Not ready to set him down quite yet, she went to start towards the carnival, but stopped as she heard the <span class=""bb-i"">""can we be a group?""</span> stopping and turning, seeing the Pastors Daughter.

She smiled brightly, but was wary. While she had liked the girl during her time at the church, and being young, she was probably less judgemental then adults, she still felt wary about speaking up. But she did, <font color=""#f7941d"">""I'd be happy to be a group. Um. My son, do I have to purchase a ticket for him? I'm more then happy to, but I haven't been to the carnival since I was a kid, and don't know the entry fees""</font> she glance around at the others  that had been called out to.

Jackson seemed happy that the Albino teen was included in this group, but like a child was equally interested in the others. He leaned in close to her, and said softly<font color=""#6ecff6"">""mommy? The person in the dress? Boy or girl?""</font> Again, her heart just melted. He was just so adorable. She glanced over, but with the hoodie, it was hard to tell. Then again, why would a girl wear a hoodie, instead of something that would keep her warm, but still show of the dress? Was this person transgender, and possibly reveling against parents? Either way, Amy wasn't too sure how to reply to Jackson.

 <font color=""#f7941d"">""I'm not sure, sweetie.""</font> he seemed to shrugged and continued looking about. There was the boy who had been bullied on the bus, which she would have done something about, had her hands not been full of Jackson. As Jackson wriggled in her Arms, she set him down, and watched him  as he went over to the boy. 

He smiled his huge, child grin and said <font color=""#6ecff6"">""hi. Those boys were mean. Mommy says girlfriends are special, but it's okay. Girls are icky anyway""</font> Amy didn't know if she should pick Jackson up again, or apologise. Glancing to the pastors Daughter, she took the few steps towards Jackson, but she figured no one would hurt him, not with so many people about. Still, she was wary. 

Jackson, like most kids, didn't have a filter on what they said or did, added to that he had excellent hearing, which was why she always had to be quite around the house. And he remembered things. He would have heard the boys on the bus, would have wanted to say something. He was just so sweet, he wanted everyone to be happy. So far, it hadn't gotten him into trouble, and she didn't expect that it would now. But she had learned a mother was always wary around those she didn't know. In other words, she was always wary outside of her own house or her mothers. 

 <font color=""#f7941d"">""I'm sorry if he is bother you""</font> she said, before looking to her son  <font color=""#f7941d"">""what have I told you? You always introduce yourself first""</font> Jackson looked down, but then up again, smiling once more <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Sorry, m-m-mista. I'm Jackson""</font> he said proudly, struggling a bit on the word mister<font color=""#6ecff6"">""and this is my dog, galhad""</font> Galahad waved his tail, use the way Jackson said his name. 

<font color=""#f7941d"">""I'm Amy""</font> Amy said, Jackson tugging on her pants leg <font color=""#6ecff6"">""no, your mommy""</font> you just couldn't help but love him. <font color=""#f7941d"">""To you, sweetie. To others, I'm Amy""</font> she said, giving him a smile. Would she ever stop being thankful that she had him? Would she ever stop being thankful that it appeared he had none of the man who had create him in him? Was it possible to love her son even more?</div>"

He didn't even have to think about it; more people meant more fun. Besides, there was something a touch depressing about going on a ferris wheel by yourself. 

“Yeah, I don't mind. No point in going to a carnival by yourself anyway.” Aaron said with a smile. Anything to cheer the poor kid up. He saw with a bit of relief that he wasn't the only one up for an adventure with strangers. The young mother with her kid and her dog had also stopped and was now talking to Reyna about being a group. The kid in the hoodie and the albino had also stopped. 

Suddenly, the small boy trudged-ran over to him, with that certain gait only toddlers could have. Before Aaron could say anything the kid announced, “hi. Those boys were mean. Mommy says girlfriends are special, but it's okay. Girls are icky anyway.” 

Aaron could feel his ears turning red, but he also couldn't do anything to stop the sheepish grin forming on his face. “I know, cooties right?” he said to the little boy, liking this kid more and more by the second. As the boy and his mother introduced themselves in quite possibly the most adorable way possible, Aaron decided that he had a new mission tonight. To make sure that their little group, especially Jackson, had as much fun as possible.

“My name's Aaron.” he said, waving shyly from the hip. “That's two a's, not an e. I'd love to be in a group with you guys. Besides,” he began, looking at Jackson cheerfully, “I think I know someone who'd like to play the fishy game.” 

When everyone was settled and ready, Aaron decided to lead the way, gazing around him to look for the booth he wanted. The cozy dirt path crunched underneath his feet as carnival games and music played around them. Eye attracting lights flashed all around, advertising their kid-friendly games. In the distance, he heard the sound of one of those 'test your strength' games. 

Soon the stand he was looking for came into view. A large water filled tub stood under an awning, with little plastic fish floating around in a circle. A tired looking attendant stood by the game, guarding the small plastic fishing rods. A line of stuffed toys and prizes hung under the awning along with a sign that read: 

1 TICKET FOR 3 TRIES
KIDS 6 AND UNDER FISH UNTIL THEY WIN!

“Okay, boys and girls.” Aaron turned around while still walking and announced to their rag tag little group, “The first and only rule of the fishy game is: You're never too old to play the fishy game! You can play something else, that's totally fine. If you think you're 'too cool' for this one, I certainly won't think any less of you.” He winked as he said this last part, as if daring someone not to play. 

He himself led the charge, handing the attendant two tickets and ignoring the guy's raised eyebrow. “Two games for me. And I definitely want the yellow fishing rod.” He took the kid-sized rod from the incredulous attendant and stood at the tub, poised and fishing rod in hand. With zero shame, he started trying to hook one of the colorful little floating fishies, saying loudly, “Come on, come on, daddy needs a new pair of shoes!”</div>"

So that was where that negative chatter was coming from and why this guy was considered a misfit. Just because he wasn't sucking lips with some girl? The fuck was wrong with these people in this dumbass filled town? Alver didn't get it. Whatever, deciding to make any sense of the religious crap and idiotic antics of people would only hurt his head. The mother and son introduced themselves as Amy and Jackson, in a rather cute fashion, while the blonde guy was introduced as Aaron.

Whom decided to lead the way to the groups first event. Some sort of simulation kiddy version of fishing. The tall albino blinked slowly as he stared at the stand, examining its purpose and why exactly this would be considered fun. But Aaron seemed pretty determined to have them all play, and was the first to jump in in a excited childlike manner. Alver raised his right white eyebrow ever so slightly at the scene, but stepped closer as he watched, trying to figure out the exact objective of this game. 

GET 3 RED TO GET A BIG PRIZE!
GET 2 BLUE AND ONE OF ANY COLOR FOR A MEDIUM PRIZE!
GET 3 OF ANY COLOR FOR A SMALL PRIZE!

After reading a few written intrunctions hanging around he looked to the booth attendant and pulled out one ticket and held it out.

Hesitating, the attendant slowly took it, pulling away instantly to avoid getting any closer to him. Alver didn't seem to care though as he decided a fishing pole to pick. They didn't have white, so he went with the light purple fishing rod. Examining it over, he held it out above the fish. Lavender eyes focussing on the objective before glancing up at the hanging prizes and pondering what exactly he wanted. The big prizes seemed to be large fluffy animals, the medium plushie sized animals and the small cheap necklaces and such.

Deciding to go for the big prize, he focused on the red. Concentrating, he moved his fishing pole in a more lax manner compared to Aaron, but he managed to get three red fishes with ease. It wasn't that hard if a game really. Just got to focus and aim correctly. 

<font color=""gold"">""Um... Congratz, what prize would you like?""</font> the attendant murmured softly.

Alver looked thoughtfully at the prizes score pointing a to a fluffy white huggable plush dog. The attendant nodded before getting one and handed it to the the tall albino. Who held it for a moment, feeling the soft plush fake fur before glancing to the little boy and silently handed it to him before walking off to another stand. He was still in sight, but he thought he would at least examine his surroundings a little.

It was then, something smacked against the back of his left shoulder. Grumbling, he shifted his white coat in examination to see orange-red splashed against the spot. At the sound of snickering, Alver turned his lavender gaze to a group of high schoolers.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Hey! Finally got some color there Ghostboy!""</font> one guy smirked.

Alver frowned, glaring before simply huffing and wiped some of the contents on his finger. Looked like ketchup from a hotdog that was chucked at him. Licking it off his finger, he rolled his eyes.

<font color=""plum"">""....Didn't your mother ever tell you not to waste good food? Or are you just too immature to even know better? I feel so sorry for parents, if they weren't as much of illiterate fools. You just hit my coat as well, not actually me. Guess your the poorest player in football.""</font> Alver said with a sarcastic smile and shrugged, causing the guy to angrily glare at him.

It was then the guy stormed over to the taller man as if to slug him, but Alver side stepped as the guy swung, stumbling and landing straight into a trashcan.

<font color=""plum"">""Please do control you're temper. It's a carnival after all. Oh, and do clean up after yourself. It's quite sloppy to litter.""</font> the albino said calmly before walking off back to the group without batting a eyelash.</div>"

He knew that she was the Pastor's daughter, of course, but had never really talked to her. She was fine with going in a group with these people. What was the worst thing that could happen?

""I'm Rei,"" he added as he followed them over to the fishing, pushing back a strand of hair that escaped from his hood. ""Current preferred pronoun being he, though they is acceptable in all circumstances."" Though she spoke these words quietly there was a certain threatening manner to her stance. 

Though she wasn't spectaculalry enthusiastic about this fishing thing she still handed over her ticket, beginning just going for random colours. Why would she go by the rules, anyway?</div>"

Um. My son, do I have to purchase a ticket for him? I'm more then happy to, but I haven't been to the carnival since I was a kid, and don't know the entry fees.""</span> The young mother spoke, and Reyna let out a sigh of relief. At least her and the very tall man seemed to be okay with her forming a group together. <span class=""bb-i"">""Oh no! Not at all. The tickets pretty much get you everything, and as long as you buy them that pretty much equals any entrance fee they could have.""</span> she nodded, looking toward the cute young boy, a knot getting into her throat as she looked away quickly.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Yeah, I don't mind. No point in going to a carnival by yourself anyway.”</span> the other boy spoke, confirming that most of the group that had been left on the bus were okay with her idea. She nodded, happily. <span class=""bb-i"">""Agreed.""</span> This was quite the motley crew, but they all seemed like genuinely nice people- something that was very rare to come about these days.

Reyna watched the young boy who introduced himself as Jackson and Aaron talk to one another before Aaron announced, <span class=""bb-b"">“I think I know someone who'd like to play the fishy game.”</span> Reyna nodded in agreement, she knew the fishy game very well, and always had been mystified by the game until she was older and could understand just what was going on behind the scenes. Magnets and simply magnets. The group began to move, and the quiet hooded person tagged along quickly behind. <span class=""bb-b"">""I'm Rei,""</span> they said as the group walked over to the fishing game, <span class=""bb-b"">""Current preferred pronoun being he, though they is acceptable in all circumstances.""</span> they added quietly, and Reyna's eyes widened slightly. She had seen Rei multiple times at school and never thought of that before. It was something she was unfamiliar with, and a bit surprised by- but she never would think poorly of someone over it. <span class=""bb-i"">""I love your hair.""</span> Reyna commented quiet enough just to Rei, as she gave a friendly smile, before turning back to face forward as they reached the carnival stand.

Reyna watched as the group took their hand at the fishing game, the tall pale boy even winning a large prize. <span class=""bb-i"">""Wow!""</span> she clapped, applauding. She probably wouldn't have even thought to play this game if she had tagged along with the other girls from church, but with this group it seemed that they were just here to have fun, and not that concerned with what others would think of them. The boy handed the large prize to Jackson and Reyna nodded, but wanted to turn her attention to the game now instead.

Reyna took her turn and managed two blue fish. She didn't want to carry a large stuffed animal around, and she admitted she would be slightly embarrassed doing so. Winning she picked a small green turtle, small enough to fit into the pocket of her jeans. 

She admired her prize for a while before she witnessed the huge splat of ketchup slapped against the white coat of the tall boy at the stand a few steps down. Disgusted, turned to stare at the source from which it came. It was of course Quentin and his gang from earlier. The assholes.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Hey! Finally got some color there Ghostboy!""</span> they called, and before Reyna could even begin to think of a comeback the tall boy spoke with grace, <span class=""bb-b"">""....Didn't your mother ever tell you not to waste good food? Or are you just too immature to even know better? I feel so sorry for parents, if they weren't as much of illiterate fools. You just hit my coat as well, not actually me.

Reyna's mouth hung open in both awe and admiration. 

This guy was her hero.

She watched as one of the boys came to fight, and was easily defeated by his own two feet. Landing in his proper home; a trash can. Reyna hadn't caught what the boy had said to the trash before returning back to the group but assumed it was deliciously brilliant. Reyna grinned as the boy returned, probably a tad on the creepy side. He probably hadn't seen that she had been watching the whole time- as the rest of the group had been focused on the game still.</div>"

He looked up at her and said <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I wanna play Fishy game! Whats Fishy Game?""</font> He just seemed so excited, and happy. He seemed to have really enjoyed the attention of an older male, and not for the first time, Amy worried that she couldn't be everything he needed. She knew one day he would start to ask questions about his father...and what could she say? she swallowed, and plastered on a smile. 

<font color=""#f26522"">""Remember fishing? It's kinda like that. I'm sure Aaron will show you how it works""</font> She said to Jackson, starting to follow Aaron, tight hold on Galahad's leesh, and Jackson holding his collar, like she had taught him. It was easier for Jackson to hold the dog's collar, then to hold her hand. Galahad was more his height, and wouldn't let Jackson get hurt. Jackson looked about with clear, evident, childish excitement. 

s Rei introduced himself, she wondered if he was a transgender, as he asked them to address him as male. At the moment. It was something she would like to know, but didn't want to seem rude. So she didnt ask. The pastors daughter didn't introduce herself, but explained about the tickets. Amy gave her a smile and a nodded, saying thank you. As the pastors daughter looked away from Jackson, Amy wondered if she made a bad judgement about her. Well. If she did, it didn't matter.

When they reached the Fishy game, Amy took out two tickets, giving them to the attendant for herself and Jackson, accepting the two rods. She let Aaron go first, Jackson watching like a hawk, before looking up at her. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I'm going to try now""</font> he said, approaching the tub, he tried to mimic Aaron's pose, causing Amy to smile. She stepped up beside him, ready to help him up. 

Jackson began to try and hook a fish on the rod, his face filled with pure concentration, this time his tongue was sticking out of his mouth, as if that could help. She had to step back, and take a photo with her phone, before returning to his side. She watched as Jackson tried to hook a fish, but it slipped away. He kept on trying, and Amy could see that his frustration kept on growing with each miss. He frowned though as Alver gave him the white dog, shook his head, but Alver had already walked off. 

Amy watched Jackson as he watched the scene with the Albino boy, then watched as her son toddled over to him, white dog in his arms, the rod in one hand. He handed the dog back, and most likely because it was the only easily accessible area to hug, Jackson hugged the alibo's legs, before stepping back and looking up at him. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I'll get my own. Mommy says you are a-al-albiny. Donno what that is. She says its like the white paint""</font> Jackson smiled, clearly pleased with his explanation,  <font color=""#6ecff6"">""thank you for the doggie. It was fuzzy, and white. You should keep it. Everyone should have toys""</font> He skipped off happily, back to the fish game, and once more began to try and score some fish, going for one colour, clearly having figured out that was how you get the big toys. 

Amy went over to the pale boy, ignoring the comment off <font color=""#fff200"">""figured one freak would have a kid with another freak""</font>. She gave him a smile, Galahad following beside her easily. <font color=""#f26522"">""I've tried to teach my boy to respect people. He can't pronounce some of the hard words quite yet, but he's got a big heart, and a strong sense of courage. I realise you may have heard him ask why you were so pale, back at the church. He is just so curious. I tried to explain it as best as I could, and realise you may have heard that as well. I just want to apologise for that. I realise how judgmental the people of this town are, and I'm terribly sorry for that. Keep the dog. That will make Jackson happier then having it for himself""</font>

She looked over at her son as he triumphly took a fish off his hook, a red one. He cheered, and her heart melted once more as he turned to Aaron, cheering <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I did it, I did it!""</font>, holding the fish up, and she laughed softly. Without thinking about it, she rummaged through her Jackson bag, taking out some wet-wipes, <font color=""#f26522"">""Let me clean up that sauce and stuff. It won't get it all out, but at least you won't have it on you. Probably won't save the coat though.""</font> She said regretfully, as Jackson scored a blue fish. He let out a groan, but the attendant explained he could still get a good prize. So Jackson eagerly Attacked the tub again.</div>"

A wave of happiness washed over him as he saw that the others had joined as well; these were brave people. The albino had tackled the game in a more lackadaisical manner than Aaron, but that was pretty normal. Rei had joined them as well, despite his earlier defensive demeanor. When he had introduced himself, Aaron's heart went out to him. He might never completely understand the sort of issues Rei was going through, but he sure as hell could sympathize with being surrounded by people who just didn't get it, or who didn't believe him or take him seriously. Reyna also played the game and seemed to be enjoying herself. 

Aaron was just about to start instructing Jackson on how to play when the tall guy strolled over and handed the boy the fluffy white dog that he'd just won. Jackson seemed a bit upset as the guy walked away. Aaron opened his mouth to ask him something when the ketchup incident happened. He wanted to step in, but it was over before he could even close the distance between him and the asshats who threw the stuff. Besides, Aaron hated stirring the pot. As Jackson waddled over to the older guy and handed him his prize back, Aaron had to marvel at this kid's sense of morality and understanding. If this was Amy's work, she was doing a damn fine job. Aaron made a mental note to punch anyone who questioned her parenting. 

When Jackson came back towards the game, Aaron decided to try and get the kid's mind off what had just happened. “Now,” he explained, explaining the game as if he had some secret insider information. “I'll be you want a big toy, right? That means you gotta go for the red ones. They're hard to get, but I bet you can do it.” 

<font color=""cyan"">“I can get 'em!”</font> Jackson announced excitedly, clapping his hands together. 

“Darn right! Now, the secret...” Aaron said, demonstrating. “...is to keep your elbows bent. And keep your eye on the fishy you want, like watching a baseball comin' your way. The big word for it is 'hand-eye coordination'.” 

<font color=""cyan"">“M'kay.”</font> Jackson said before concentrating on the game. He played as if the fate of the world was hanging in the balance. Aaron played along, his fishing magnet lure close to Jackson's, but not too close. They had both managed to snag a red fishy on their magnets, and Jackson held his up in the air proudly. <font color=""cyan"">“I did it, I did it!”</font>

“Alright! Nice job! I got one too.” 

They both went back to fishing, though Aaron was just mostly watching Jackson and cheering him on. He saw him catch a blue fishy and groan in dismay. 

“Hey, it's cool. You can get a medium prize if you get another blue one.” The attendant said, apparently taking an interest in their efforts. 

Aaron watched hope fill the little boy's face as he confirmed it. “That's true, you can still get a good one, like that rhino up there.” He pointed to one of the hanging prize holders, which held a decent sized plush rhino. As he said this, Aaron started aiming for one of the blue fishies himself, making sure that he wouldn't win a big prize either if Jackson wasn't going to be able to. He also decided to psych Jackson up a bit, feeling a bit like Ben Kenobi.

“Now, focus...the fishy rod is part of you...it's like your very own arm. See that blue fishy?” Jackson nodded quietly, being drawn in with Aaron's commentary. “He's coming around again. Here he comes...” They both watched as it slowly floated towards them, getting closer and closer. “...wait...wait...now!” Aaron joined Jackson again, both of them grabbing blue fishies with their magnets. 

<font color=""cyan"">“I got him!”</font> Jackson shouted, happy beyond all reason. Aaron held up his hand for a high five and Jackson didn't leave him hanging. 

“Awesome! Let's go show the attendant!” he said. Aaron led strolled over to the attendant, who let them pick both of their prizes. 

Without hesitation, Jackson pointed to the rhino and said, <font color=""cyan"">“That one!”</font> jumping up and down as the attendant handed him the toy rhino with the stubby little horn. <font color=""cyan"">“Which one do you want?”</font> Jackson asked Aaron while hugging the rhino. 

“That one.” Aaron declared, pointing to the one he wanted. The attendant brought it down, and Aaron gladly accepted the plush platypus. 

<font color=""cyan"">“What's that one?”</font> Jackson asked, eyes wide. 

“It's a platypus.” Aaron answered, showing him. 

<font color=""cyan"">“A plawhat?”</font>

“A pladiepoooooose!” Aaron growled exaggeratedly and poked Jackson with the beak of the doll, making him giggle. 

Once everyone had their fill of the fishy game, Aaron decided to ask the others, “Anybody here like ferris wheels? I was thinking we could go there next.”</div>"

A little odd but he wasn't going to complain. It was then he noticed the darker colored female was smiling at him quite oddly when he returned to the group. The pale man didn't really know why, but he guessed it was because those guys weren't quite the friendly bunch, even to the pastors daughter. So he returned the smile, though it was more slight and gentle compared to her wide grin.

It was then Jackson wandered over him and held up the dog, Alver crouched down to be more on the kid's level and took the dog with a small frown. Seeming to ponder if he had done something incorrect. It was always possible, he wasn't exactly skilled in social interaction and he had never really dealt with a small toddler like Jackson. So perhaps the gift came off as rude and maybe hurt the little boys pride? People were too bloody complicated.

As the boy spoke, Alver slightly smiled at the comment. <font color=""plum"">""Sort of. It's not really white paint. It's like having no paint for a blank picture. I wasn't painted when I was born like others who are colored like pretty pictures.""</font> he answered in a surprisingly gentle tone, quite unlike the cold sarcastic one he said to those who tried to bully him.

As he held the white plush dog and Jackson ran off to earn his own prize, Alver stood up again, glancing down to Amy as she approached and spoke to him. As she explained things and apologized for the conversation at the churc, the tall man simply blinked slowly.

<font color=""plum"">""It's alright. It's not a bad thing to be curious. He's at least not scared of me.""</font> he said before looking at the dog. <font color=""plum"">""I guess.""</font> he said though he didn't fully understand the gesture before he looked to the girl as she offered to clean his coat.

He paused for a moment, but he removed the coat and gingerly held the dirty spot out to her.

<font color=""plum"">""Thank you.""</font> he said, deciding this would a appropriate time to say his gratitude.

The lavender eyed man watched as the teenager and the toddler eagerly played the fish game, earning a few more prizes before Aaron suggested the Ferris Wheel next. Alver didn't speak up his opinion and simply listened to what the others would say.</div>"

It pleased her that Aaron seemed happy to entertain Jackson, and more, seemed to enjoy it. As Jackson won the rhino, Amy smiled. Jackson seemed to have taken to Aaron quite easily, and Amy wondered if Aaron would be opposed to hanging out with Jackson in the future. It would also be nice to have a friend who wasn't judgmental, or really, to just have a friend at all. Realising she was holding the coat and doing nothing, she shifted, and looked down at the mark. Yes, it would probably stain. If she was home, she would have quickly chucked it in water and soaker to get the mark out. But she wasn't, so she did the best she could with the wet wipes, making a mental note to replace the packet later. 

<font color=""#f7976a"">""Why should he be afraid of you? Being an Albino isn't a choice, nor is it anything other then the lack of pigment. I've raised him to accept others, and he finds you interesting. I encourage his curiosity. It helps  him understand things. One day, He'll remember the tall, white man who gave him a toy dog and laugh at his childlike connection to white paint. I hope that one day, you can look at the white dog, and remember the little boy who thinks you are white paint""</font> She smiled and handed him back his coat. having done the best she could with the wipes. As Jackson came trotting over, eager to show off the Rhino, she knelt, and smiled as he excitedly said, <font color=""#6ecff6"">""look mummy! Look!I got one! Aarry helped me! He got a platty too!""</font>
<font color=""#f7976a"">""I know, Sweaty! You did extremely well! Here, I'll carry him for you, so you don't lose him on the Ferris wheel""</font> She said, giving Jackson a hug, and taking the Rhino. Before she could stand up, Galahad licked it, and she laughed, shifting the toy under one arm, she looked over to Aaron and  said <font color=""#f7976a"">""Thank you for helping him. You're good with kids""</font> She smiled, glad her son could enjoy the night, and glad that Aaron appeared eager to give him a good night as well. Before Jackson could rub off, she caught him, and shifting a few things, managed to get his water bottle out the bag, and gave it to him. Jackson drank eagerly, and she took the bottle back when he was finished. She gave him a look, and he grabbed Galahads collar. 

She looked around at the others, her gaze landing on the Pastors Daughter. So far the girl didn't appear very interactive, and Amy wondered why she wished to hang out with the 'Freaks' and 'misfits'. Especially given who her father was. Amy had seen the look that the girl had had when The pale boy-She must get his name, and hers. She couldn't keep on calling them Pastors daughter and pale boy-had addressed the bullies. Admiration, and Amy wondered what sort of bullying the girl had been subject to. And then she thought back to when the girl had looked away from Jackson, to when she herself had been 16, and pregnant. To when she had fallen for the wrong boy, who she thought was the right boy. 

So she took a deep breath, gathering her courage, and went over to her.  <font color=""#f7976a"">""I want to apologise. I made a snap judgement earlier, based on the fact that you looked away from my son, and assumed you were just like a majority of this town is. Judgmental, despite the circumstances. I should know better myself, but...when it comes to Jackson, I'm...a bit blind. So. Sorry. I'm Amy""</font> She gave the girl a smile, hoping for a name in return. If only to not be stuck calling her Pastors Daughter. Jackson watched with Curiosity, unsure how to take the girl.</div>"

Aaron blushed a little at Amy's observation. He never would've imagined that he would be good with kids, then again he never had the chance to find out before. He was an only child and his parents didn't really have any siblings, except for an uncle who Aaron barely knew because he moved away to start his family. Aaron acknowledged to himself that goofing around with Jackson was definitely a lot of fun. 

“Well kids,” Aaron said to the group, despite the fact that some of them were the same age or as old as he was. Farcical as usual. “If I'm not mistaken, that large lit up circular thing is the ferris wheel. Anybody who wants on, just follow me.” Aaron began striding towards the ride, arms swinging exaggeratedly.

Leading them, Aaron took a sharp turn around a popcorn stand. He wasn't quite looking where he was going, however, and ran directly into a familiar face. A bolt of panic shot through him at the sight of his therapist, Doctor Charles Saunders. Aaron had intended to hide his face and pray that he wouldn't notice him, but it was too late. 

“Hey! Watch where you're...oh, hello Aaron. I didn't expect to see you here.” Dr. Saunders said, leaning over Aaron with his square jaw and his tight expression. 

“Uh, sorry Doctor Saunders. I wasn't paying attention.” Aaron prayed that the others wouldn't notice this conversation, at the same time it all felt so absurd, seeing the man who knew his dark secrets buying a bucket of popcorn. 

“I guess not.” The doctor observed. “Enjoying the festival?” As Aaron mumbled and shifted his feet uncomfortably, the man scanned the group following Aaron dissaprovingly. “Not taking my advice, I see.”

Aaron stared at the lights on the ferris wheel, refusing to acknowledge that this was even happening. He grunted out a short, “Nope.” and shuffled past Saunders, wondering frantically if this sort of situation was covered by doctor/patient confidentiality. 

As if to rub in it, Saunders called out to Aaron as he wandered away. “I'll see you Monday, like always!” 

Aaron ignored him, just kept his eye on the prize. He homed in on the lights on the ferris wheel, not even realizing that he was kicking a rock as he went along.</div>"

Reyna had always loved that ride; it wasn't too fast, it wasn't too high, it was just right. It was kind of hard to admit to herself, but she was having a very good time already, much more than she would have with the other girls or even alone. She kept her eyes forward, looking at the large blinking contraption that was their destination. The other woman came by her side and spoke kindly,

<span class=""bb-b"">""I want to apologize. I made a snap judgement earlier, based on the fact that you looked away from my son, and assumed you were just like a majority of this town is.

A sense of uneasy swept over Reyna as Amy finished her sentence, but she returned a smile. Her head bounced in a nod, the mass of curls bobbing along as she did. <span class=""bb-i"">""I'm sorry if I offended you or Jackson. I don't blame you for being defensive over your son, I-I'd do the same too. I was probably just spacing off as usual.""</span> she lied, pausing, <span class=""bb-i"">""I'm Reyna by the way, it's nice to meet you Amy.""</span> she mentioned. That she hadn't lied about. She was glad she had spoken up on the bus to the group.

Her lips parted again, wanting to spill her guts to the woman, to explain everything- but she couldn't.

The group reached the ferris wheel and Reyna pulled a ticket from her roll and handed them to the worker as the group started to get into the small line.</div>"

As he watched the two girls talk, he followed after Aaron, pausing only when he saw the little event that transpired between Aaron and some older guy. The pale boy was unsure what was going on between the two, but Aaron didn't seem comfortable. Still, Alver probably should pry and ask about it so he let it lie as he got into the line for the Ferris wheel. Looking up at the large wheel like rideable contraption. Frowning ever so slightly as his lavender eyes stared at it.

He didn't like vehicles in general, and he had never been on some carnival ride. Only heard of them in books and such. Usually used as some romantic means in romance novels. Which he didn't quite get, since the bloody thing didn't look anything but romantic. Still, he felt he needed to at least try it at least once.

So after getting his ticket and it was his turn to board, he had to duck under the door and crouch a little to avoid hitting his head. Sitting down in a seat, his hands gripped tightly to the seat as if to hold on for dear life on the handle that was braced in front of him. It felt like this was a trap... But he supposed it was just to keep riders safe.</div>"

Now, it was only the Albino guy she needed a name for. Even if it was just one night, she liked having a name for people. She made sure she had everything, Jackson eager to get moving. She saw Reyna about to speak, and then stop. SHe didn't press. They all had their secrets, she supposed. 

Amy began to follow Aaron, with Galahad and Jackson. Jackson still stared about eagerly, taking everything in, and Amy decided that it was worth what could be considered crankiness tomorrow, to give him this. And how fortunate to have someone so interested in him, so happy to mess around with him here. Amy wondered, toyed with the idea, of asking if Aaron wanted to maintain a friendship with him. Or was that too weird?

As they seemed to stop, Amy looked about, seeing that Aaron had pretty much crashed into someone. She frowned at the man's comments, and simply stared back at him when he looked over the group, Galahad barking. As the man walked away, taking a dig at Aaron, Jackson opened his mouth and yelled out <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Meanie!""</font> causing Amy to giggle. 

As they reached the Ferris Wheel, Amy tied Galahad up, knowing he wouldn't do well on the ride, and gave the attendant two tickets, following the others on board. She chose a corner, and before Jackson could sit, she had him on her lap, a tight grip on him for the moment, but he still clutched the side, and looked out with wonderment.</div>"

Seeing that the pale guy was clutching his seat like a life raft, Aaron made a mental note not to rock the ride. After they were all inside, the ride operator closed the doors and double checked them. Soon, they were all moving lazily skyward, the ground getting farther and farther away. Jackson was looking wide-eyed at the scenery below them, and the sight of him made him feel like a kid again. Feeling a little whimsical and not caring who knew it, Aaron whistled a couple of bars from <span class=""bb-i"">Giants in the Sky</span>. It seemed appropriate. 

As they neared the top, Aaron decided to stare down at the world below them along with Jackson. The people seemed so small. They also didn't seem as rude and nasty from way up here. Up here they were just people...whose insults wouldn't reach their little group no matter how much they shouted. There was a certain serenity up in this moment, and Aaron wanted to be able to remember it. Searching the floor of their group's compartment, Aaron noticed a penny. No doubt left by a someone who had been contemplating throwing it off the ride. He picked it up and shoved it into his back pocket, deciding to put it to better use. 

Peeking out of the ride again, Aaron saw in the corner of his eye one of the other gondolas near them. In it was a couple kissing. Aaron looked away quickly, face turning red. He had forgotten ferris wheels were popular make-out rides. 

He started to think about the people on the ground again, and about Dr. Saunders. Saunders acted like people like Aaron shouldn't exist. As if he wasn't complete. As if he was lying, or needed to prove that he was the way he was. Nearly every question from the man was a test. <span class=""bb-i"">'How do you know if you've never experienced it?' 'Why are you giving up on yourself so early?' 'Is there some reason that you choose to be this way?'</span> He frowned at the memory at that last one. Choice had nothing to do with it. 

Saunders wasn't the only one. The guys on the bus, the jerks picking on Reyna, not to mention the assholes who messed up the pale guy's coat and payed the price. Aaron had no doubt that Amy had caught her fair share of insults and judgements. The thought made him sick, especially for the kid's sake. No one should grow up having to see their mother be ridiculed. 

Suddenly Aaron turned to the rest of the group, not sure why he was asking such a forward question. He just had a feeling they all felt the same way. 

“Am I crazy, or is this town...not right? It's like everyone in it are...” Aaron remembered Jackson, and censored himself. “...meanies.”</div>"

Looking to the group she shook her head softly. What a group. Jackson caught Reyna's gaze as she watched him look out into the world with such wonderment and excitement that only a child could. Tears began to form in her dark almond eyes as she quickly turned away from them and looked outside onto the fair as the powerful ride raised steady and slow up into the night's sky.

She was just fine. Tears didn't last long with her, especially in public. Turning back she looked towards the three, studying them carefully. The pale boy looked terrified and Reyna felt bad for him. Perhaps he had been afraid of heights. A quiet chuckle escaped her lips. ""<span class=""bb-i"">How can a boy so tall be afraid of heights?""</span> she thought to herself as the silence between them had been interrupted by Aaron.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Am I crazy, or is this town...not right? It's like everyone in it are...”</span> Aaron paused, <span class=""bb-b"">“...meanies.”</span> Reyna cleared her throat, before speaking. <span class=""bb-i"">""I think there are a lot of good people in this town, just misguided.""</span> Reyna truly believed this in it's whole entirety. She had been bullied by friends and family a like- but she still had good faith in them. She crossed her ankles over themselves. She hoped they didn't think she was naive or childish for her thoughts.</div>"

Despite how uncomfortable he was with vehicles in general, including carnival rides, he didn't say anything or complain and just tried focusing on the pleasant view they had. Listening to Aaron whistling a tune, the lavender eyed man took a deep breath to calm his nerves. 

As Aaron suddenly asked a question about how this whole town was pretty much a bunch of assholes and the church girl spoke how 'misguided' they were, Alver couldn't help but give a grunt in response. In his opinion, misguided could just mean they are a bunch of idiots.

<font color=""plum"">""...Seems that way.... Their 'misgiided' ways seem to enjoy looking on those who are different. Apparently doesn't matter if it's by looks, personality or just who you are.. If it's off the norm, you might as well be considered rats that they want to use mousetraps on to get rid of them.""</font> Alver answered bluntly, his light eyes looking down at the land below. Watching as people scurried about in their own business.</div>"
10335,The Normal Life of Non-Normals,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76071-the-normal-life-of-non-normals,"['Modern', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'Small Group']",2015-02-26 10:06:00,MarshiestMallow,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Amy held Jackson lightly with one hand, knowing that Jackson wouldn't fall, but ready to grip him tight. Just in case. She took a few brief moments as they rode the Wheel to study her companions. Her eyes were drawn to Reyna, who although Amy couldn't be sure, appeared upset. She caught her looking away from Jackson, and Amy looked to her son. Despite the circumstances of his conception, she wouldn't change having him for the world. She kissed the top of his head, and looked back to Reyna. 

She reached out and took one of the younger girls hands, giving it a quick squeeze, before returning her hand to the light grip around Jackson. Jackson looked about, at the others as well, and then wriggled out of her grip. He trotted over to the pale boy-and just when would she get his name?-and happily climbed up on the seat, with a little bit of difficulty as his short legs squirmed for purchase. 

And then Aaron asked the question. Amy looked out the Ferris Wheel, listening as the others answered. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""It's not so much if you are against the norm. Its...if you challenge the...norm. Its if you challenge the religion that this town is obsessed with...then you are considered wrong. It just seems that this town is uneducated, in the...realness of the world""</font> She looked back to the group, eyes automatically falling on her son.  <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""It doesn't matter to me. But I know it will effect how people see him""</font></div>"
10336,The Normal Life of Non-Normals,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76071-the-normal-life-of-non-normals,"['Modern', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'Small Group']",2015-02-28 12:58:00,AuntFlavia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Aaron listened to the responses of his carnival companions. As soon as they answered, he felt slightly embarassed, though not for any public shame sort of reason. Asking that kind of question just wasn't in his nature normally. Most of the time he was a bit of a child, thinking that everyone was good in their core and that it was just their teenage years causing them to act like jerks. With this group though, he had started thinking differently. Or maybe just thinking in general. 

So when Reyna gave her answer of good people being misguided, Aaron was silently admonishing himself. She was right, or course. There's was no reason to generalize an entire town full of people, each with different minds, personalities, upbringings and goals. Judging an entire population was just as wrong as how they were treated sometimes.

Though, Aaron realized that the pale guy was right, too. Some people in this town were acted like jerks, plain and simple. Even the adults had their moments, like with Dr. Saunders. And some of the teachers. Maybe some people just never grew out of their jerk phase. Maybe some people just didn't know how to be decent people. 

Then, Amy offered her opinion on the matter, about challenging the norm and the faith of this town. That had merit too, religion probably played a big part of it. Not that religion made people ignorant, just about every group on the planet has their share of thick-skulled and hateful people. But with a town built on the foundations of their faith, where religion played such a big part in everyone's lives, it was bound to attract some crazies. When Amy mentioned Jackson and how some people saw him, it made Aaron sick again. Childhood was everything, not to mention the responsibility having to raise him in a sea of ignorance. Aaron never thought of himself as chivalrous and he still didn't, but everyone needed some help. Or at the very least, a friend. He made a mental note to ask Amy something when they were done with the festivities for the night. 

“I feel like it's about intent, too.” Aaron said as their seat drew closer to the ground again, bringing them back to Earth and away from their sanctuary in the sky. “People can say and do awful things with the best intentions. My folks are like that. They just want me to be happy, and they think that the only way I can be happy is if I conform to <span class=""bb-b"">their</span> idea of what makes people happy. But that's not what I want. I have my own ideas...” His thought trailed off. Aaron was silent for a moment before whipping his head towards the pale guy, asking, “Okay, just what heck is your name?”</div>"

Unless I want to do the other thing that they look down upon, which is dying the hair. Makes me wonder which they would prefer at this point.""</font> Alver grumbled at Amy's reply but resumed staring out the window.

<font color=""plum"">""But maybe it's just a whole bunch of different reasons or excuses. Maybe they just want to feel better about themselves by looking down on others remotely 'off' even just a little. Maybe they think they are showing pity, or maybe they really are just a bunch of... Sour apples.""</font> The pale man said before glancing his lavender gaze toward Aaron as he spoke once more.

Perhaps intent was indeed another factor, he himself could sort of relate. His parents had brought him up distant to others, hiding in the shadows. They were trying to do what's best for him, and he knew they loved him... But they still treated him as 'different' and something unusual. Could he hate them for that when they treated him differently but still loved him?

As Aaron questioned the taller male of the group of a name, Alver simply blinked thoughtfully before innocently grinning. <font color=""plum"">""Mhmmm a lot of names. Vampy, pale guy/boy, beanstalk, Ghosty, Mr. Starlis.""</font> he mused before looking to the blonde. 

<font color=""plum"">""Why do you want to know?""</font> Alver asked, genuinely curious. After all, this was the first time anyone bothered asking. It seemed so odd now having to be questioned on it. Most instantly came up with some sort of nickname and just called him that whenever they saw him. As a child, he got mad at it, but now he simply didn't care anymore.

To have someone actually ask though... It was odd. To him at least.</div>"

She had been pleased when Aaron had asked, but this was just disappointing. She gave a shrug, looking out the window, before looking to the pale boy. <font color=""#92278f"">""For myself, it would be easier for me to refer you by a name, even if it isn't a real name, rather than something like ""the pale boy"" or the ""albino"". Plus, it's more respectful, and better than that""</font> She shrugged again, her eyes drifting to Jackson as the boy began to grow restless.

She rose smoothly, and lifted Jackson into her arms, moving easily to open window. She pointed out that from up here, you could see far, and Jackson eagerly began to look for their house. She indulged him in that, knowing that it would occupy him for a time. 

She looked back over her shoulder, and continued. <font color=""#92278f"">""And beyond anythinng else, I like kknowing peoples names. I like finding interesting names, and I like being able to call people by their names. But if you don't want to give us your real name, just give us a fake name.""</font> She said, and smiled brightly, returning her attention to Jackson, as the young boy eagerly pointed into the distance, at a random house,<font color=""#6ecff6"">""is that it, Mommy?""</font> What was the harm in playing along?

<font color=""#92278f"">""It could very well be! I should have turned the christmas lights on, so we could see it""</font> She had never taken the lights down, deciding that they had been too hard to get up, they could just stay up. It was merely just some colourful lights, but they had thrilled Jackson.</div>"

'Beanstalk'. Aaron whistled again, the cart they were sitting in was slowing down.

“It would put us on an even footing, I guess.” Aaron ventured answering the pale guy's question, tapping his hand rhythmically on the window. “You know all of our names, but we don't know yours. Quid pro quo.” <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">You tell me things, I tell you things. Quid pro quo, yes or no.</span></span> <span class=""bb-i"">Too many movies...</span>Aaron thought as his mind recalled the quotes. 

“Plus, if you don't tell us your name, I'm just going to call you Boo Radley.” <span class=""bb-i"">Too many books, too...</span>Their carriage finally came to a stop and the ride operator let them out back onto the earth. Aaron stretched as he stepped out, looking around. He wasn't sure where to go next. He thought maybe it was someone else's turn to pick where they were going.</div>"

Obviously not understanding the referance. Alver had never seen a movie, nor really anything to do with television. So he didn't get a lot of movie references. But at the 'Boo Radley' comment, he actually let out a soft chuckle in amusement. Mhmm not a bad comparison if one thought about it really.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">""Alright then. My name is Alver Starlis. Scary man of the town.""</font> he joked before getting off the ride and looking around.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">"".....I do not have much experience in...

Her feelings we're probably a bit overwhelming and bias when she really thought about it. She had never had it as bad as these people, no matter what she thought. No matter what she had really gone through. No matter how deep her pain engulfed her.<br/><br/>Her head bobbed up and down softly with a quaint smile spread across her lips. The banter between both Aaron and the other boy was amusing, but Reyna agreed with Amy. It's easier when you know someone's name, even if they never would speak or see one another again after this night. <br/><br/>""Alright then. My name is Alver Starlis. Scary man of the town."" he finally admitted and Reyna made a mental note to herself to remember it, if anything- for the night. <br/><br/>The group exited the cart together and stood idle for a minute and Reyna's eyes widened as she saw an array of food vendors across the way. <span class=""bb-i"">""Can we grab something to eat?""</span> Reyna questioned, eyeing several things she would like to devour; like the cotton candy that was being spun into light airy sugary clouds of multiple colors.</div>"

A small amount couldn't hurt, but then, she couldn't have the cotton candy herself. Not without her insulin. And Jackson had yet to be tested for diabetes. So, perhaps the first time she gave him large amounts of sugar, shouldn't be in a carnival. <br/><br/>She looked down at Jackson, and once more thought a small amount couldn't hurt. <font color=""#f6989d"">""Food sounds good.

I'm starving.” He peered at the concession stands around them, a strange mixed aroma of sugary treats, fried food and popcorn washed over him. Well, there was always the usuals: cotton candy, kettle corn, fried dough, and corn dogs. The stuff that usually caught his eye though was the weird 'only at a fair' type of food: chocolate covered bacon, bloomin' onions, deep fried oreos, and finally one he was actually interested in.<br/><br/>Aaron blinked away the twinkle in his eye as he announced to the group, “I'll meet you guys by that table.” He gestured to an empty table that stood a good distance away from the crowd traffic. “I'm gonna get me some gator.” With that he took his leave and strolled towards the alligator stand where, unsurprisingly, there wasn't much of a line.<br/><br/>“You wanna try some alligator?” The cook asked Aaron as he approached, shouting over the sound of sizziling reptile meat. The smell of the sauce the girl was working with was enough to keep Aaron interested in eating a green thing that lived in muddy water. <br/><br/>“Oh yeah. I've never had it.”<br/><br/>“You want it on a plate or a stick?”<br/><br/>The question tripped him up for a second before he thought, <span class=""bb-i"">Oh, what the hell. Might as well go full on weird.</span> “Stick. I wanna eat like a caveman.” He grinned at her, thoroughly enjoying his night at the moment. “Oh, and a small orange pop too.”<br/><br/>“You got it, hun.” She smiled toothily back at him, flipping the meat around and gathering the stuff she needed to make his food. It wasn't a long wait, and soon she handed him his stick and drink. As he pulled out his wallet to pay, she winked at him and said, “Your money's no good here, sunshine.”<br/><br/>“Oh...okay. Really?” Aaron looked up at her, surprised at generosity. <br/><br/>“Yep. Enjoy the gator.”<br/><br/>“Okay, thanks!” Aaron said, raising his gator stick in the air, as if he was tipping his imaginary hat. As he practically skipped over to the table, he stopped suddenly in his tracks, disturbed.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Wait, that wasn't...was it? Was she flirting?</span><br/><br/>Aaron looked back at the stand to try and get another look at the girl, but she was already back to work.  He spun back again, blinking through the confusion.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Or was she just being nice? Yeah, probably. No big deal. </span><br/><br/>He shrugged it off and continued his trek towards the table, which was empty for now. Plopping himself and his impaled dinosaur meat at the table, Aaron eyed his food, wondering what everyone else had chosen to eat.</div>"

Food wouldn't be so bad. Then he looked down to the little boy of the group who tried his best to pronounce Alver's name before simply settling on a nickname. Not really minding it and just finding the little boy quite adorable, Alver gave a soft smile and gently reached down and ruffled the boy's hair.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">""You're a kind lad.""</font> he said before standing straight again as Aaron was the first to go and get something to eat, saying they should go and meet at the table.<br/><br/>It was odd, yet Alver felt a bit relaxed around these people he hardly knew. Most pretty much younger then him. Scanning the food stands for something to eat, he settled on a Cheesedog stand. It wasn't often one saw these things. A corn dog with the filling just cheese instead of meat. Though he did pause to watch Aaron to see how he faired. Alligator? Odd. But was more interesting was the fact the woman seemed to be quite kind toward the blonde boy. Alver couldn't help if it was a attempt to flirt, especially when someone of a business just gives away their profit. Then again, he wasn't a expert in relationships and he doubted things worked out in reality like they did in books.<br/><br/>Like everyone else, the woman at the stand with cheesedogs gawked at him, seeming unsure what to make of the the giant white man. Still, he asked for a Cheesedog and paid for it and she gave it to him gladly before he moved on and got some cotton candy as well. He liked sweets. Finding Aaron, the tall man sat down beside him, deciding to allow the females of the group to sit together.<br/><br/>It made girls uncomfortable to sit next to strange men right? Especially big ones.<br/><br/>Flicking his lavender eyes to Aaron, Alver hummed a little. <font color=""plum"">""You're quite the charmer it seems.""</font> he mused as he witnessed Aaron's behavior before casually taking a bite of the Cheesedog.</div>"

Something that Jackson wouldn't get everyday, but that wouldn't be a test of his sugar resistance. She walked down the stands, Jackson's hand curled around Galahad's collar, the toddler looking about, eyes wide, a gaping grin plastered on his face. It made Amy's heart swell with happiness, and she smiled. <br/><br/>Her eyes traveled over the stands once more. The corn dogs so popular at carnivals seemed to be the only choice. Alligator was not an option, at least not for her, and while the cheesedog did sound alright, she doubted Jackson would be interested in it without the meat. So she walked over to the stand, and got three corn dogs. <br/><br/>Almost as if he knew that he was getting something too, Galahad looked up at her eagerly with his bi-coloured eyes, that matched hers. He gave a small bark and she chuckled, holding out a dog to him. He immediately pulled it off the stick, and had it gone in seconds. Probably not the best food to give a dog, but tonight was a night to live a little. She led Jackson and Galahad, now licking his muzzle, to the table, where she tied Galahad's leash and settled Jackson in her lap when she sat down. <br/><br/>She took out his water bottle, and set it in his reach, before handing him the corn dog. He took as big a bite as his small mouth would allow, and then seemed to make exaggerated ""Mmmmmm"" Sounds. Amy smiled, and bit into her own corn dog. She studied the alligator. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""Does that actually taste good?""</font> She asked, one arm loosely holding jackson as she ate her corndog. </div>"

Picking a bright blue one she paid the man with a smile, before ripping a piece off and slipping it between her lips. Melting slowly, she let out a soft sigh. Delicious.<br/><br/>Scanning the area she re found her group (They were not hard to miss) and rejoined them just as Amy sat down with her trio of corn dogs. Reyna gave a light chuckle watching Galahad take the corndog in one swift bite. Her eyes traveled across to Jackson as he too savored the corndog, delightfully making sounds to let us know that it was good. <br/><br/>""Does that actually taste good?"" Amy asked Aaron.<br/><br/>Just noticing that he was eating something different than everyone else, Reyna raised her eyebrow. She had tried alligator before but it definitely wasn't something she'd go out of her way to get.

How long had all of them been living in this town together and yet never really spoke at length? The town wasn't that big, and yet they had never spent any time together like they had tonight. How many of them went to the same school he did, trudged through the same halls, walked over the same tile floor, hell, even shopped at his convenience store? And yet never once had they met properly. A gaggle of outliers brought together by a youth night and a request from a pastor's daughter. It felt prophetic, and it felt right. <br/><br/>Wanting to remember this moment as well, Aaron broke off a piece of the stick he was eating off of; one at the bottom, untouched by food, and stuck it in his pocket along with the penny from the ferris wheel. Curious, he eyed Alver's stained jacket and asked, <font color=""#fdc68a""><span class=""bb-b"">“Do you always get treated like that? People throwing stuff at you?”</span></font></div>"

It's fine though, just means your naturally charming.""</font> the pale man said in a nonchalant manner as he took another bite of his Cheesedog, his lavender eyes watching Aaron before glancing around to examine people and the group members.<br/><br/>As the others soon joined them, the girls of the group sitting across from the boys, minus Galahand and Jackson, Alver listened as the mother asked Aaron about the gator. Whom prompty explained what it tasted like. By description, it actually made the pale man curious as he absently bit into a piece of cotton candy as he listened to Aaron talk. It was actually nice being with people. A odd thought the ghostly man believed would never cross his mind. Yet, these people seemed nice enough, it was too bad there wasn't more people like them. <br/><br/>It was then, Aaron asked Alver about more occurrences like the one earlier. The lavender eyes flicked to the blonde boy then to his stained shoulder.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">""Yeah pretty much.

Wasn't the skin rough? Didn't the meat taste more...tecture'ry then anything? She didn't know, and she wasn't about to try it. Jackson listened and watched curiously, but his Corndog took all of his attention at times. <br/><br/>Amy fell silent, for now, happy to just listen, keeping an eye on Jackson as he ate his dog, when the conversation shifted to how they were treated. While she wasn't treated as badly as Alver, it still made her uncomfortable to talk about. <br/><br/>She finished of her Corn dog, and used a Wet Wipe to clean her hands, appearing, for a few moments, to pretend she hadn't heard the question. Then she sighed softly, <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""I tend to ignore what people say about or do to me. My boss is better then most, and I feel that he just thinks about Jackson, and how I need an income to raise him, but he still thinks that...well, that I am no good. That somehow, being beaten and raped, made me evil. That I somehow asked for it""</font> <span class=""bb-i"">throttle back, Amy. No need to create a whole scene</span> She sighed again, pressing her fingers to her eyes for a minute. <br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">""I hear the names, the nasty comments, the talk that I'm a demon, come to taint the people of this town, to lure young men to committing the heinous act of intercourse before marriage, or lure husbands into committing adultery, that I'm scum, the lowest of the low. I can put up with that. its the way they treat Jackson. He wouldn't hurt a damn fly, and yet they treat him like he's infected, something to keep at arms length, rather then to treat like a kid. Part of me thinks I should just pack up and leave, but this is my home. And I'll be damned if some head up their butts, stuck up, judgmental douches will drive me out of it""</font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">nice work throttling it back, Amy.</span> She couldn't help it. The topic was a sore spot for her, because it led to the fact that her son would be, and was being, treated like this. And she would do anything to prevent that, to stop it. She just didn't know what. She sighed, and swallowed painfully, looking up, but letting her hair fall over her eyes, as Jackson, a warm, comforting weight in her lap, twisted around and hugged her, as if he understood what she had been saying and the meaning behind the words. Her precious, unassuming, caring son. Hers. <br/><br/><font color=""#bc8dbf"">""its never resulted in anything physical. so that is something. I find it...horrid that people can be so ignorant of albinism that they can treat you like they do"" </font> She said to Alver, <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""And yet, it doesn't surprise me about this town""</font> she sighed softly. </div>"

The shock of real life was like a slap to the face, and he could only sit there like a deer in headlights as Amy spoke of what was done to her, and how people treated Jackson because of it. It was sick. Those people were sick, and the very idea of it made him feel sick. Aaron put down his food. He wasn't in the mood for it. <br/><br/>Aaron watched as Jackson, bless his little heart, hugged his mother. He was grateful that at least someone was able to comfort her after she poured her heart out to them, that sort of thing wasn't really his specialty. Still, he wanted to do something, say something, anything that could help. He knew, and he suspected that the rest of the group also knew, that what people really needed in positions like this was a friend. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fdc68a"">“Amy...”</font></span> Aaron said steadily, folding his hands together on the table. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fdc68a"">“...if you ever need anything, someone to talk to, babysitter, a ride, or just someone to hang out with, give me a call.”</font></span> In one smooth motion, Aaron pulled a pen and paper out of his back pack and wrote down his cell number, giving it to Amy. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fdc68a"">“Hell, that goes for the rest of you, too.” </font></span>Quickly, he scribbled his number for each member of the group and handed them out, hoping that no one would take it the wrong way. </div>"

He didn't quite get why such assholes would pick on a mother and a child. Wasn't evwn Her bloody fault for getting knocked up. And they would probably bitch if she, thankfully didn't since Jackson was a sweetie, had a abortion. Apparently these townsfolk were just impossible to please. It was irritating as all hell. Especially when it's just a kid being picked on like Jackson.<br/><br/>Glancing his lavender gaze toward the mother at her words of albinism, he snorted. <font color=""plum"">""Kids are either too ignorant or watch too many horror movies. The adults are either dumdums and superstitious, or just don't like how different I look. Too white, too tall, too skinny, too weirdly colored eyes.

I hardly get picked on as much since no one likes staying up after dark.""</font> Alver said before looking to Aaron as he made his response to Amy and gave everyone a piece of paper. The pale boy took his piece and examined it for a moment before blankly looking to the other but smaller male.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">""I'm flattered, but you're quite the quick one Mr. Charmer.""</font> Alver said in a casual non-chalant tone before simply showing a joking grin and looking at the piece of paper before taking a finishing bite of his food and looking at the dark sky.<br/><br/><font color=""plum"">""Mhm it's getting a little late.""</font> he murmured.<br/><br/></div>"

There were a few nice people in the town-her boss for one, but Amy knew even he was distant and thought she was 'sinful'. To have this offer, to have this kindness, just given...it overwhelmed her, and tears stung her eyes. She bowed her head, burying her face in her sons hair, as she shook sloghtly with tears. <br/><br/>It didn't take her long to compose herself, and she took the offered paper, <font color=""#f49ac2"">""thank you""</font> she said softly, managing to smile at Alver's joke. She kissed the top of jackson's head, and he squirmed, looking up at her.<br/><br/><font color=""#ec008c"">""My mother...she thinks I should just meekly go about my life, or move to another town. She lied, coming here. She said my father died, leaving her a widower. Truth was, I don't think he was wver apart of the picture. I don't want to live a lie.

~Original Idea from: TheFlyingScotsman~

In the little town of SaintKrest, miles from any city and surrounded by mountains, forests, and a lake, lived the peaceful life of the townsfolk. Most, if not all, are highly religious, judgmental, and gossipy people who are quite strict in their way of life. It's not so bad as long as you're considered normal... But not so much when you aren't. There are several things that would be considered out of the norm, be it by looks, people's ""choice"" in gender, their sexual orientation, their odd quirks or their beliefs... Anything these people considered different, shun such outcasts , such spawns of the devil.

This is their life. And this is their story. Where their only friends, are each other.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Rules</span></span>
1. Follow standard RPG rules.
2. Be polite to your fellow roleplayers.
3. This rp is a slice of life and will most likely mention some dark themes.
4. Romance is allowed, but keep sexual acts private.
5. This is more of a joint rp rather than just moderated and controlled, so any ideas, feel free to use. This is your characters life.
6. Your character must have some quirk to them. Be it looking different, to their sexual orientation, to being transgender, whatever.
7. Please post Characters here first, then move accepted characters to the Characters Tab.
8. Have fun! Very important!
9. Try attempt to give someone the chance to reply for maybe a day if your character is involved with that character, but after a day, feel free to continue.
10. Try to post once a day, but if you can't it's okay. Just let us know. Say hi once in awhile in the OOC.

<span class=""bb-i"">I like the detention idea (even though it was a breakfast club joke hehe) and I like the youth night idea! Another idea I also had is that maybe we start the roleplay on a holiday of some sort? That might give a reason for people to be somewhere doing something. Like I know here in Minnesota, we have a State Fair every August and man it's hugeeee. Tons of things to do and thousands and thousands of people come to it. 

Of course our little town would not have something so big- but any little carnival or something might give reason for our people to meet one another; or if it's 4th of July or something- maybe a fireworks spot, or something of that type :D Just an idea.</span></div>"

It could be like some Harvest Festival and there town throws it's little carnival. With Ferris wheels and other rides, fun little game stands and such. Plus it would be at night and there could be fireworks.

And yes we could do both. Mhm</div>"

Or opposite being the summer festival so the ending of the long fall/winter. I like the idea of rides and games and other stuff. I can see people still being rude during this time- maybe they meet up somewhere and are actually have fun with one another? 

If you want to incorporate the youth night with that- it could be the ""youth group"" is going to the carnival as a group and they end up getting split up once they get their even though they are supposed to stick together and be a group. Kids always do that stuff- cause no matter what their are cliques xD 

If not the same night- good ideas for opportunities for them to meet again!</span></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>18

<span class=""bb-b"">Height:</span> 5'9

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Amy is a kind, generous kind of person, yet often comes across as mean, sadistic and sarcastic. She layers  herself with these protective traits in order to prevent herself from being hurt. She doesn't trust people easily, and often even finds it hard to talk to other people, making going about daily tasks hard. When you get to know her, if you can break through the hard outer shell, she is the kindest person you can know. Loyal, and protective of those she loves.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>: Reading, cross stitch, guitar, archery

<span class=""bb-b"">Likes:</span>Flowers. Neatness. Warm summer days. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Dislikes:</span> people, lying, drugs

<span class=""bb-b"">Sexual Preference:</span> Bi.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Born January 1st, 1997 in a dingy, rundown room, Amy was exactly two months early. She had been born quickly, and before emergency services could arrive. She died for three minutes, and was brought back by paramedics. Pale, sickly, thin and small, it was thought that Amy wouldn't survive the night. 

She did. 

The first three months of her life were spent in hospital. She didn't open her eyes for three days, and she rarely made a sound. Her mother, a recovering drug addict, also spent considerable time in hospital, but made time every day to go and see Amy, and then when she was allowed to, to hold her. She named her Amy, but called her ""Bellafonte"" a word she had learned in high school Italian meaning ""beautiful source"".  Amy suffered several complications of her early birth, besides being small, she had difficulty suckling, her liver didn't function properly, nor did her pancreas and doctors feared that her mothers drug habit might cause damage as well, despite the fact her mother hadn't used drugs since she knew she was pregnant. 

When Amy opened her eyes, one was brown, the other green. When they were let out of the hospital, her mother scraped together enough money to by a small house in a small town, wanting a fresh start for both of them. 

As Amy grew, and survived, it become evident that she was a type 1 diabetic, perhaps due to the fact that her pancreas hadn't worked properly when she was born. She had endless complications with this, hospitalizations, and when she developed Asthma she nearly died. Doctors told her mother that it could have been a lot worse, but she was just glad Amy had survived once more. 

Amy didn't start school until she was 6, but it soon became apparent that she wasn't getting left behind, soon becoming one of the top students. Amy desperately wanted a pet, but her mother was afraid this would make her sick, and Amy soon stopped asking. She knew her mother worked hard, and tried to give her all she wanted, and she was grateful for that. 

Amy skipped three grades, so that by the time she was 15, she was in her second to last year of high school. When she turned sixteen, her mother finally gave her a dog. Her mother had hunted high and low, and had found a dog with matching eyes to her. Amy fell in love with him then and there. As she started her final year of school, Amy met a guy. The typical ""tough guy"", and like all 16 year old girls, she thought she was in love. 

He ended up beating her, and raping her, leaving her in the park, hurting and feeling so alone. It was only the thought of her mother, probably panicing over the lateness of the hour that had Amy gathering herself together, and getting home. Where she broke down, crying in her mothers arms. They went to the police, but as there was little evidence of the beating, and the rape could not be proven, not much was done. Amy ended up dropping out of school, unable to stand the rumors, the ridicule, unable to stand seeing his face every day. Her mother did her best at home school, but Amy was better off studying by herself. 

It was two months later when she found out she was pregnant. She broke down again, scared and lonely, and her mother encouraged her to do what she thought was best. Amy secluded herself from her mother, her dog whining at her door. It was hours before Amy came out again, and said she was keeping the baby. She finished off the school year at home, sat the exams at the school, once more braving the ridicule and bullying to gain her high school certificate. And then she gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, named Jackson. She took a two year break, spending as much time as she could with her son, and essentially being the best parent she could. She got a part time job at a newspaper, editing the articles, and had soon saved enough money to go to a good college, and did so via the internet. She worked part-time, studied and raised her son, with her mothers help, so that by the time she was 18 and her son 2, she had a place of her own

At any rumors, any nasty comments about ""White trash"" Or sexual slurs and innuendos, she merely smiled, and just continued on. 

Because of her diabetes and Asthma, she often appeared pale and sickly, and as if she could be easily broken. Her eyes drew some comments, but it was her sexual preference that, along with the fact she had been a teenage mum, drew shock and horror. Despite the fact that she had been going to church since she was a baby, she felt she wasn't welcome when it became evident she was pregnant, nor when her sexual preferences came out. Her argument was, and always has been, that while she was attracted to men, it just seemed they hurt her badly, and that women were more caring, and sympathetic to all that had happened to her.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Her son</span> Small for his age, bright green eyes, shaggy blonde hair, freckles over his slightly heart-shaped, pudgy face.

Yeah probably, considering she is a police officer. Probably wouldn't be surprising if quite a few townsfolk knew her.

But since Alver himself is actually hardly seen, or talks to people, probably not a lot is known about him including age. Drive the pastor crazy. And Alver will very much enjoy it.</div>"

The fuck did Reyna do?! She's like, the only one of the misfits who didn't show attitude xD prick pastor.

But excellent post, and I love the bribery, though I do agree her last choices in groupies prooooobably wouldn't make her dad happy. In which Alver will of course be happy to annoy him further xD

That and he has no idea what the heck to do at a carnival, other than references from books, so why not? 

They haven't indicated they are trying to harvest his organs and sell them yet so alls good. XD

And then the running gag of using Alver as a hiding device begins. If only he wasn't skinny, her fro could of been hidden. Damnit you need to beef up Alver!

... And now this remark came to mind.

Alver: Don't know what your talking about. I have colored body hair, this shirt just shows it off. What? Like you know what it looks like, I don't walk around half naked. Unless your one of those perverted pastors. Sicko.

I also had an idea that we could use for when we (and by proxy, our characters) have had enought of the carnival. Let's say that our group stays a bit too late and misses the bus back to the church. Of course, our group will not be missed. :'( So, Aaron offers to drive them all home if they can get to his car at the church. How can they all get to church quickly and withoyt running into trouble? Maybe Alver knows a good shortcut throught the woods, being the wood nymph that he is. Then, maybe we all stumble on that grove/treehouse idea we had earlier and we all decide to make it our own little hideout. After that, we all get home, no doubt having to deal with the consequences of staying up too late.

What do you guys think of this as a plan for the future, once we're done with the carnival?</div>"

Wakana Aika
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>
14
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> 
Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Wakana Aika is a very carefree girl who enjoys talking with others. She loves making new friends and finding out their interesting traits. She can also be serious when she has to, but most of the time she's usually joking around, saying dirty jokes now and then. Wakana talks a lot so the only way to shut her up is by bribing her with candy. Yup, candy. Also, if she has taken a huge liking to you, she'll probably follow you around like a lost puppy. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>
Wakana Aika was never acknowledged by her parents. She's the youngest out of her 3 siblings. Wakana was just never paid attention to. Her parents were always focused on her siblings dreams and futures. One was going to be a <a href=""http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy259/lucava/anime%20boys/blond%20und%20andere%20haarfarben/doctor-1.jpg"">doctor</a> another was going to be a <a href=""http://th03.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/f/2013/222/a/5/police_switzerland_x_reader__the_last_vampire_1_by_xxchocomelkgirlxx-d6c2sc7.jpg"">FBI agent</a> and the other a <a href=""https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7thdcywnW1r95frro1_500.gif"">leader and business</a>. They were all stupid dreams according to Wakana, she believed her dream was the best. The best out of all of them. She believed that one day, her parents will go up to her and say. 
""Wakana, we're proud of you. Sign my shirt please!""
But, of course. That was never going to happen. Her dream? Well her dream was to be a professional dancer. When she proposed this idea to her parents, you could see the disgust in their eyes. Their response broke her heart. Shattered it to pieces. 
""Wakana. You're being absolutely ridiculous. It's probably just a phase. Become something that will be useful. Right now, that disgusting dream of yours should disappear. Be like your brothers for once. They're successful and handsome. Plus, they're rich. And you? Well, you have no talent of dancing whatsoever. So don't think of trying it, or you're out of this family!""

Name: Ellan Whaley
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Personality: Ellan may not look it but she’s actually somewhat shy. No big case though, once she gets talking to someone she’ll start getting expressive slowly. If it is one thing she will get cocky at is video games. Anything else in reality, she can lack self-confidence depending on what it is. If it is something that will make her snap, it’s poking her. Ellan hates to be poked. Apparently she finds it to be annoying.
Bio: At a certain point Ellan started to grow up where her parents would be fighting frequently, so she would stay up in her room almost all the time to avoid it. She would have more online friends than offline friends since she spent a lot of time playing video games and going on the internet. Her mom would lecture her negatively about how she doesn’t do anything outside. Of course Ellan would be really upset from this, not only that, but from the way she took it she thought her mom had a problem with having online friends. It was a bit of a different case. Either way, even her and her mom had occasional fights, or just with her parents in general. There was this one specific argument when Ellan was around thirteen, her and her mom were in the car and her seven year old brother in the backseat. The fight was becoming one of the most tense ones yet, eventually following up with a sudden car crash. In short, Ellan and her mom survived while her younger brother died. After that Ellan <span class=""bb-i"">tried</span> to lessen the fighting, and even tried to go outside a little more. But not enough to her mom's pleasure, so sometimes she would silently take on the lecture.
Items: Flashlight, one can of Hawaiian Punch, Nintendo 3DS, smartphone, headphones
Greatest Fear(s): Ellan is claustrophobic, so she fears small, confined spaces. She also fears being in a car accident and its aftermath.

He eat's healthily, keeping himself at an average weight. His hair is short and blond, and his eyes are blue. He wears prescription glasses, without he can't see past his nose. He usually wears random t-shirts with some game on it, and jeans, and shoes. He also wears a red hoodie jacket over top.
Name: Josive Ferrari
Age: 13
Gender: Male

<span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span>:
Josive is a very serious person at times, though other times he can be outgoing and funny. He does have a problem balancing the two. Though, if his friends are acting immaturely, he feels like he needs to act as the mature kid in the group. He's usually very logical, and prefers to stand where he is and figure something out before acting. He can't stand not knowing something.

<span class=""bb-u"">Bio</span>:
Josive Ferrari grew up with his two parents, who met at a local airport. His father was a flight instructor, and his mother was a sports pilot flying in to refuel. The two locked eyes, and fell in love instantly. They were married, moved in together, and had Josive all within a year of their meeting. When Josive was ten, his parents wanted to go on a flight by themselves, so his father sat down with Josive and told him he was the 'man of the house now' before leaving him in charge.

His parents went out on their flight, but never returned. Josive waited in the house for several hours, playing around and the likes. He thought his parents should have been home at a certain point, and thought he was being punished for not taking care of the house. He started cleaning up, and then doing homework, until he eventually passed out. When he woke up, the police where there, and explained what had happened. Josive had to know every detail, and refused to leave the house until they told him... they did, as they deemed it would probably have been best to tell him, especially since there weren't very many details. He found out his family were actually in the pattern for the airport, turning off of base onto Final, but the crosswinds were too strong, so they banked too much and entered into a spin. Their crash was unrecoverable, but they assured him it was painless and instant. Josive, freakishly, was fine after he knew why.

They simply sent him away to an orphanage. There, he made two friends, sisters. Bironica, and Leera. Bironica was the nicer of the two, who actually helped Josive settle in. Leera was always teasing Josive, and trying to make things harder for him. Josive came to like them both, despite Leera's meanness, but he liked Bironica more. He's kept a diary of every event ever happened to him since he was six, and Leera has gotten a hold of it twice. She luckily didn't have a chance to read it either time, as the first time she tried getting Bironica to read it, who didn't want to. The second time Bironica caught Leera just as she was about to read it. Leera's always been known to get the three in trouble... Leera told Josive about this 'haunted house', and dared him to do it. She said she wanted to show Bironica... but she wanted Josive to 'scope the place out' for the two 'harmless and defenseless girls'. Josive rolled his eyes, but eventually gave in. He personally didn't believe any of it, and just wanted to prove to Leera that she was insane. He made a deal with her that if he went there, she <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to go afterwards. Little did he know... he was about to play a very dangerous game.

Items: Glasses, Backpack, Flashlight, Journal and Pencil.
Greatest Fears: Losing Bironica, or Leera. Losing his diary. And, of course, flying. 
Other: He'd just like to know if <span class=""bb-i"">you want to play?</span> I find it funny Josive has a fear of another automobile... like that other character. xD Originally he's from a Pokemon RP, so his parents were murdered by a bird-type Pokemon, so I thought it fit pretty well here.</div>"

Name:
Damian Veeman

Age:
15

Gender: Male

Personality:
Calm-headed and not easily spooked. He tends to be extremely silent and more prone to action, but not violence. Though he is coming out of his little shell, he is still on the fence, and sometimes he can even alienate the only people he considers to care.

Bio:
Damian was a very closed off person, who never really spoke to anyone. He and his parents had a silent agreement that as long as he was sleeping and eating normally, and his grades stayed exemplary, then he would leave them alone and they would leave him alone. Very rarely did he ever indulge in 'feelings' or caring for anyone other than himself. To him, the world would keep to itself as long as he kept to himself and only did what was expected of him. As such, he was invisible, yet a brilliant mind in the classroom. Except, nobody likes being alone... on a whim, one strange day, he tried to be social. It was painful, but he found it to... not be all that bad. Soon he had friends, at least a few, though even then he was still not completely used to it and sometimes he'd be so quiet they'd have to make sure he was still there. Though those he considered 'friends' were still small in number, the ease that he was able to aquire them interested him. Could he one day have ten friends? Twenty? Thirty? A hundred? To him, this concept was... strangely fascinating.

Items:
Headphones and phone, which holds an assortment of musics; Flashlight; granola bar and water bottle in his backpack that otherwise contained school papers.

Greatest Fears:
Being forced to 'socialize' or take part in idle chit-chat. He wears headphones and listens to music to block out the outside world a lot, so he won't have to deal with anyone he doesn't know. He is also terrified of thunder or lightning.

Name: 
Joseph Adams

Age: 
15

Gender: 
Male

Personality: 
Kind at heart, Joseph usually attempts to keep the atmosphere light, but can go too far with his sarcasm that it may seem almost bullying at times. In tense situations however, he tends to shut down almost completely. 

Bio: 
Despite being born into a lower class, mostly neglectful family, Joseph doesn't seem to show any sign of this. He keeps his private life separate from his public life, perhaps as a coping mechanism. He also isn't a saint, having gotten into trouble once or a twice, but he tends to avoid such trouble with authority as his neglectful family suddenly notices him when messages home are sent. His social life is fine, not popular but he has a decent amount of friends.

Items: 
Flashlight, Lighter, Pen, A bag of Trail Mix.  

Greatest Fear(s): 
Sharp objects. He tends to get a bit anxious around them.

<div class=""bb-center"">The house stood tall and silent in the dark, its windowed eyes gazing out at the world; cold and soulless. Its insides were motionless, the dust settled and untouched by the years. The gloom filled the rooms and hallways, unpierced by light nor sound and stifling in its intensity. Bare feet padded down the hallway silently, leaving not a print on the dusty floorboards. Long has it been since the house had been entered, standing waiting for its next victims. The girl had been so lonely. Oh, won’t anyone come? All she wanted to do was play. 

A sudden noise gave her pause. Subtle but growing louder, she was able to pick up the sound of voices. She approached the window over-looking the path leading down the hill. Eight figures, four boys and four girls of varying ages were heading towards the front floor. Her head tilted to the side, crimson eyes evaluating the group below her. 

Should any of them look up they would see a small dark figure peering out the glass before the pane stood empty and the silhouette was gone. The door suddenly swung open with an ominous creak, the smell of mold and dust wafting out from the dark abyss. The group’s flashlights would barely pierce the darkness, casting long shadows that flickered and danced out of the corner of one’s eye. The girl from the window descended down the stairs and disappeared when she reached the bottom. The front door slammed shut, the sound echoing loudly through the house. 

Words appeared onto the wood, asking the very same question that was the demise of the girl’s parents. The girl smiled now, blinking into existence before the group of teens. Her arms, legs and face was splattered in blood long dried, bright red eyes glowing at the group. She tilted her head to the side, holding her hand out to them as she uttered three before vanishing.

""Yeah, I'm still not happy about this trip. I'm only doing it because Leera convinced me to. I'll probably be heading out as soon as I see all the rooms just so I can convince her I was here."" Josive talked to everyone as they walked up to the house. He was busy explaining why he was coming, that he missed the figure up in the house. ""Anyway, why did everyone else come? Similar reasons I presume? I can't see why anyone would want to come here for any other reason."" he then asked everyone else. Not that he cared too much, but that he just didn't want to be talking to himself while they walked up to the house.

Once the group reached the door, Josive quickly caught the glimpse of the door swinging open on it's own. He reasoned what it could be... <span class=""bb-i"">wind... a prank...</span> but he shook it off nonetheless. After entering the house, and the doors slamming behind everyone, he took a little more notice. He instinctively grabbed for the doorknob, wiggling it to try and open the door. No such luck. ""Guys, the door's locked."" he sighed, turned back around just in time to see the appearance of the scary girl. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""You better hide~""</font> she grinned to everyone, before mysteriously disappearing before everyone's eyes.

""Oh come on, that can't be real! Really Leera? Do you think I would fall for something like this!? Josive called all throughout the house. He held his hands on his hips as he bellowed. ""Seriously! Come out where I can see you, I'm done with this. It's not funny, it's not scary, it's just plain stupid."" he continued yelling out to the air. How could he be so stupid to not see the obvious? ""Fine! I'll just sit here until you get bored yourself."" he threw himself on the ground, not paying attention to everyone else around him. Josive folded his arms, blinking slowly as he shut off his flashlight. <span class=""bb-i"">Won't be needing that. She can jump out at me all she likes... doesn't matter. I'll show her one for anyhow!</span> he thought to himself.</div>"

She had a calm expression the whole time, honestly, she didn't think much about it. The difference was how the atmosphere felt. It's as if, your whole body was warning you. Warning you about something, but what exactly?</div>
<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah, I'm still not happy about this trip. I'm only doing it because Leera convinced me to. I'll probably be heading out as soon as I see all the rooms just so I can convince her I was here.""</span>
She glared at Josive who spoke up. She had forgotten it was because someone had invited her. The main reason she agreed was so she can get away from her parents. Both of them, on the couch, drinking coffee and admiring their sons dreams. Oh how much Wakana wanted to scream in her parents face, in her brothers faces who treated her like crap. All of them did. Everyone deep down just hated her. She shouldn't have existed. Why? Why was she born into this disgusting world. With disgusting and hateful parents? <span class=""bb-i"">Why?</span></div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Ah.</span></div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">They wanted someone to hate on. Someone they can just make fun of just to feel good. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, they all should just rot. They should just di-</span></div>
<div class=""bb-center"">She snapped out of her trance when Josive spoke again.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Anyway, why did everyone else come? Similar reasons I presume? I can't see why anyone would want to come here for any other reason.""</span>
A sharp sigh escaped Wakana's mouth, she responded to his question. Although half of them weren't even listening. 
<font color=""plum""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah. Just wanted to check this place out.""</span></font></div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Today she wasn't in the mood to speak much. Even though every day of her life, in front of her friends  she's hyper. It was a surprising sight to see her quiet. She couldn't care less. She was tired but it was worth leaving her parents and getting some freedom. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""plum"">""Anyways, I'm kinda hungry, we should eat after thi-""</font></span></div>
<div class=""bb-center"">Wakana's eyes wondered off to one of the windows. Something caught her attention. A dark silhouette. She stared at it for a while, before realizing that it had disappeared. She shook her head, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""plum"">""Just my imagination..""</font></span> Just before she could finish her sentence, the door had slowly opened. Making a creepy creaking sound. What spooked her the most was how the door sounded so much like an agonized scream. Having seeing this, she was about to bail but her friends kept moving. She watched too many scary movies to know this was a bad idea.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Still, she followed behind. Her calm most relaxed expression soon changed to confused and scared. She hid behind one of them, slowly and quietly entered the house. Suddenly the door behind everyone of them smashed closed. So loud that Wakana fell over. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""plum"">""Eek!""</font></span> Her small body bounced on the broken down floor. As she was getting up, she looked forward and found a little girl, glowing red eyes. Judging everyone of them.</div>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""red"">""Let's play~""</font></span></span></span></div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Just like that, the little girl disappeared. Terrified out of her mind, Wakana was shaking. Shaking so much she couldn't even get up. She noticed how Josive wasn't believing all of this and just sat there.</div>

She slowly got up, gulped and clutched her fist. Her flashlight in hand and her house keys in the other. She figured that she could use her keys as a weapon if anything pops up. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""plum"">""I-I'm going ahead.""</font></span> She said, trying to sound all heroic but really she was just scared. She pointed her flashlight forward and continued moving, hoping to find a safe place to hide till sunrise or until this horrible prank was over.</div>"

The house looked as abandoned as it was, broken and spooky to the Average Joe. To Damian, it was just a house that badly needed to either be torn down or fixed up. Something was in one of the windows, but as he went to see what it was the... thing was gone. His eyes narrowed, but he said nothing. He looked down at the people who he mostly called his... friends... he couldn't hear a word they said, but their lips moved and he made out Josive's question. ""I'm just here because everyone else is..."" He said, softly, his first words since he woke up that morning. His parents never spoke to him, except a few 'good morning' grunts when he entered the kitchen, while they focused on work and conversing about the newspaper. He never responded, just sitting down to eat and then leave, without even a goodbye.

He pushed that thought from his mind and sighed to himself. He was with his... friends, so he could be more social and open, right? Oddly, the thought scared him more than staying quiet... so he didn't say much after that line. He followed when the house was entered. It smelled as old as he knew it was, but that didn't bother him so much. Before long he <span class=""bb-i"">felt</span> as the door slammed shut and saw the little girl appear before them. Somehow, he heard her, despite the screaming of his music in his ear, and she wasn't loud or anything, just heard through the music despite it all.

<div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#9e0b0f"">""You better hide~""</font></div>

And then she was gone, instantly.

Damian remained poker faced through the entire thing. <span class=""bb-b"">""...Really?""</span> He shook his head. <span class=""bb-b"">""A bloody little girl? How tasteless... Could at least put some effort into it...""</span> His thoughts were a lot more bold than he allowed his voice to be. He moved rather than talked, and as Wanaka voiced that she was moving forward, obviously frightened, he walked past, with slow, deliberate, measured steps that allowed him to study his surroundings, swinging the flashlight back and forth slowly to survey the room and the others around it. His thoughts wandered, and he reflected that the granola bar in his backpack wouldn't hold him over the entire night. That's how long they had to stay there, right? Yeah. He desperately hoped someone else had food, as the thought of being stuck there hungry discouraged him more than the little girl did... for now.</div>"

She was thinking about a lot of random things, probably unrelated to what was happening currently. ADHD for the win, right? Her attention soon returned as her eyes wandered off to the old house they were walking towards. She held her flashlight by her side as she tilted her head to the point where her cheek would be resting on the side of her headphones that she wore around her neck. Her blue-green eyes looked up at the house in slight curiosity and...suspicion. She noticed the silhouette at the window just as it disappeared; maybe she was seeing things?

""Well I had to find something outside the depths of my bedroom to kill time, you know?"" Ellan responded to Josive's question. Ah, yes. The only other place where Ellan would be, her bedroom. Only reason why she's outside on this day was because of her nagging mom, saying she spends too much time inside. Psh. Why does it even matter? Ellan never understood the problem. Unhealthy? <span class=""bb-i"">How?</span> Whatever. Ellan hoped the trip to this...place...would get her mind off of things.

Ellan followed to enter the house. When the door suddenly slammed shut Ellan got startled and made a short hop in place as she looked behind her at the door itself. It wasn't that many more seconds later until she turned her head back forward, with the sudden appearance of a little girl.

<font color=""red""><div class=""bb-center"">""You better hide~""</div></font>

Ellan's eye twitched as her eyes went wide slowly, ""Bruh,"" she fell completely backwards like a statue. Once she hit the floor she got right back up almost immediately. She switches her flashlight on and off every slow second or two, pointing with it at place to place. ""Okay...ooookay...we're good...we're good...totally good..."" Ellan was already comparing this experience to a video game, being the gamer she is and all. At least she didn't think she was actually in one. Maybe that thought will come to mind the day she reaches insanity, if such a day comes that is.

Yep, this was going to get Ellan's mind off of things just fine.</div>"
10669,An Innocent Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76079-an-innocent-game,['Free'],2015-02-23 04:57:00,Nytem4re,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was supposed to be simple. Get into the house, prove it was just superstition, and get out the next day. I mean, come on, no one really believed the stories.

But here Joseph was, possibly about to be killed by the supposed fake ghost that was not supposed to exist. Now, it could have been a prank, but no. Pranks were never this elaborate. And Joseph was pretty sure most of his friends weren’t CGI experts so that pretty much killed the idea, since he saw that little girl disappear in front of his eyes.

Yes, it was the real fucking thing. And it was still capable of killing him, ghost or not. He had already tried to pry open one of the windows, as it was how he had gotten in anyway, but Joseph found all the windows were locked. The doors probably were too, and he wasn’t taking any chances of going through the front door with those bloody words all over it. Screamed trap if he had ever seen one. 

Best bet was to hide, try to buy time until he found a way out. 

He found himself panicking, turning off his flashlight at every sound and odd shadow. Yeah, Joseph had played all the horror games and horror movies. It was a joke, but it didn’t seem as funny when he seemed to be in the same situation himself. Joseph remembered all the gruesome death scenes those horror games had, and while he was in deep thought, Joseph dropped his flashlight, and it echoed throughout the house. 

""Shit..."" 

Joseph quickly picked it up and headed to the second floor. If anything, there was probably more hiding spots up top, as most two story houses had the bathrooms and bedrooms on the second floor. Maybe he could lock himself in the bathroom until it all blew over, although seeing as the girl was a ghost of some kind doing that probably just meant he'd trap himself in a confined area with the vengeful ghost. Joseph crept up the stairs, hoping the echo hadn't tipped off the ghost. It probably did, but a man could hope.</div>"

When police arrived at the scene they found Mr. and Mrs. Bishop slaughtered in their beds. Their eyeballs had been removed and put in mason jars located on the bed-side table. Their tongues had been severed and jarred the same way. Their faces had been carved into a grotesque smile, the cut extending from the corner of their mouth all the way to their ears on either side. There were several lacerations all over their bodies but the most distinct was the random stab wounds all over their torso. Their hands had been folded peacefully over their chest and the blood splattered blankets pulled up to their waist. Mrs. Bishop had been positioned with her head on Mr. Bishop’s shoulder. The most horrifying piece of the macabre setting, police said, was that written on the wall above the bed in what appears to be the victims’ blood was this message: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Y7Vvjg8.png""/>

The police searched for the Bishop’s six year-old daughter Anabelle but she was nowhere to be found nor did police find any evidence that she was taken from the home. The police were unable to find the killer and so the case was filed away and forgotten. 

History became legend and legend became myth. The house still stands to this day. The house stayed vacant until around 2001, when the town tried to make renovations to the house but odd accidents kept occurring: things moving around, ladders being knocked over, etc. After about a year, the workers succeeded and the house went on the market. Not six months later a family had moved in and they lived there for about a year before they suddenly left. Just up and vanished, leaving all their belongings inside the home. 

Rumors circulated around the town that the old Bishop house up there on Cornegy Hill at the end of Baker’s street was haunted.

The date is now Salem Massachusetts, January 26, 2015. A couple of teenagers were bored out of their minds and decided they should do a test of courage. They settled on the Bishop house, having all heard the rumor that it was haunted. They broke in just after sunset but just as they stepped through the doorway the door slammed shut behind them. As they turned they saw that written on the front door in a red liquid they dared not to try and identify was this message: 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""red"">Do You Want To Play A Game?</font></span></span>

All the doors and windows are locked and cannot be forced open by any means. Cell phone signal also disappeared.

Now <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">you</span></span></span> are trapped in a house with a demonic little girl who wants to play a game. Your objective: survive until dawn and try not to get caught.</div></div>

Anabelle

A bright and cheerful young girl, she lived a happy life with her parents. She was loved by all at school and was friends with almost anyone. One day her mother was up in the attic and she found and old doll. She cleaned it up and gave it to Anabelle, thinking it would make a nice present for her. Soon after that her parents noticed Anabelle’s behavior changed. She was a lot more withdrawn and she smiled less than she used to. Her parents passed it off as she was just not feeling well and carried on about their day. However, the problem got worse and worse until one day Anabelle was sent home from school for pushing a boy off the monkey bars. Her parents demanded to know why she did it and all she would say was “He told me too.” Her parents asked who “he” was but the child merely smiled up at them. Confused and a little disturbed, her parents sent her to her room. 

This carried on for a month, Anabelle just getting worse and worse. One day, after Anabelle had a fit and screamed at her parents because they wouldn’t let her go outside and play her parents sent her to her room. Later that night, Anabelle came to their room and apologized, asking them if they <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">want</span></span></span> to play a game with her. They noticed a glint in their daughters hand and Mr. Bishop shakily asked Anabelle to put the knife down. She ignored him, advancing closer as she repeatedly asked him why he didn’t want to play. 

He tried to lunge for the knife but Anabella was quicker. Showing speed and strength a child of her age should not possess, Anabelle drove the knife into his stomach. With a gasp he staggered to the floor. She fell upon him, stabbing him a few more times. Blood splattered, she climbed to her feet and turned towards her mother. As the child closed in the last thing Mrs. Bishop heard was her daughters’ sweet voice asking: <font color=""red"">”Mommy, why won’t you play with me?”</font></div></div>

The appliances in the house do not work. The electricity, water, etc are all turned all off. Your mission? Try to make it to dawn by hiding and running. Anabelle knows the layout of the house like the back of her hand. You will need to find various hiding places around the house. 

You generally know she is coming. First you’ll hear a faint singing that seems to echo around you. Then the knocks start. Rapping the walls all around you. When the sounds are at their loudest then you are caught. There is a way to try <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">to</span></span></span> get away. Your flashlight will stun her for a few seconds so you better run fast~

If you do happen to get caught she will take you to the basement where she will torture you with hallucinations of your greatest fears. The only way you can escape is if another one of your friends comes to free you but you better be careful; if she catches you both then you’ll both be trapped in the basement.

<font color=""red"">First Floor</font>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Living Room=</span></span> Furnished with a couch, t.v. and two end tables and either side of the couch with lamps set on top of them, the living room is not much in terms of lavish but the family that had moved into had little furniture wise. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Dining Room=</span></span> Compared to any other room in the house, the dining room is very bare, only a table sitting in the middle of the room. China plates and place settings decorate the table.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Kitchen=</span></span> Filled with the customary appliances one mind find in a kitchen, the room is small. A small breakfast table sits in the middle of the room, leaving enough room to maneuver around the space without bumping into anything. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">First Floor Bathroom=</span></span> A shower, toilet, and sink clutter the tiny space of the bathroom which had originally been another closet but had been reverted to a bathroom.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">First Floor Closet=</span></span> Coats hang in rows on the bar, like skin shed and left there to dangle forever.
 <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">First Floor Bedroom=</span></span> Housing only a bed, nightstand, lamp and tiny closet, the bedroom on the first floor is used for guest purposes. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Piano=</span></span> The piano by the stairs is horribly out of tune though some say if you stand at the base of the hill and listen to the still night air one could hear a tune being played.

<font color=""red"">Second Floor</font>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Master Bedroom=</span></span> A king-size bed sits regally in the middle of the room. A nightstand sits on either side, each holding a lamp. The stand on the right also holding an alarm clock. A drawer sits on the opposite wall next to the door. The closet and bathroom on either side of the bed. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Second Floor Guest Bedroom=</span></span> A twin-size bed with a single nightstand and a small closet.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Office=</span></span> A oaken desk stands next to the window cluttered with paper-work and pencils. A solitary lamp sits on the wood. If one opened the drawers they would find the generic office supplies. A swivel chair sits in front of the desk. A couch rest on the wall beside the door, perfect for taking naps during a break.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Second Floor Bathroom=</span></span> Much like the first bathroom though this one is a little bit bigger.
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Second Floor Closet=</span></span> Coats hang, a few having fallen off their hangers and were nestled on the floor in a pile. 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Small Bedroom=</span></span> The walls a pale pink with butterflies stenciled on, it is clearly a child’s room. A small bed rest against the far wall with a small nightstand next to it. There are two seat-chests under the window, the space being taken up by stuffed animals. A few toys were strewn around the room, the <span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">play</span></span></span>-room side of the space..
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Doll Room=</span></span> Much like the name suggests, this room is filled with porcelain dolls. They line along and in glass shelves around the room. Their dead eyes stare straight forward though one feels at any minute those orbs could blink or move to look around the room. The clothes on the dolls are tattered and layered with dust. Though one single doll sits isolated directly in the center of the room, facing the door. It has a serene smile painted on its face and it is in extremely good condition, not a single speck of dust or moth-eaten hole to be found.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> 
Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Wakana Aika is a very carefree girl who enjoys talking with others. She loves making new friends and finding out their interesting traits. She can also be serious when she has to, but most of the time she's usually joking around, saying dirty jokes now and then. Wakana talks a lot so the only way to shut her up is by bribing her with candy. Yup, candy. Also, if she has taken a huge liking to you, she'll probably follow you around like a lost puppy. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>
Wakana Aika was never acknowledged by her parents. She's the youngest out of her 3 siblings. Wakana was just never paid attention to. Her parents were always focused on her siblings dreams and futures. One was going to be a <a href=""http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy259/lucava/anime%20boys/blond%20und%20andere%20haarfarben/doctor-1.jpg"">doctor</a> another was going to be a <a href=""http://th03.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/f/2013/222/a/5/police_switzerland_x_reader__the_last_vampire_1_by_xxchocomelkgirlxx-d6c2sc7.jpg"">FBI agent</a> and the other a <a href=""https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7thdcywnW1r95frro1_500.gif"">leader and business</a>. They were all stupid dreams according to Wakana, she believed her dream was the best. The best out of all of them. She believed that one day, her parents will go up to her and say. 
""Wakana, we're proud of you. Sign my shirt please!""
But, of course. That was never going to happen. Her dream? Well her dream was to be a professional dancer. When she proposed this idea to her parents, you could see the disgust in their eyes. Their response broke her heart. Shattered it to pieces. 
""Wakana. You're being absolutely ridiculous. It's probably just a phase. Become something that will be useful. Right now, that disgusting dream of yours should disappear. Be like your brothers for once. They're successful and handsome. Plus, they're rich. And you? Well, you have no talent of dancing whatsoever. So don't think of trying it, or you're out of this family!""

Name: Ellan Whaley
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Personality: Ellan may not look it but she’s actually somewhat shy. No big case though, once she gets talking to someone she’ll start getting expressive slowly. If it is one thing she will get cocky at is video games. Anything else in reality, she can lack self-confidence depending on what it is. If it is something that will make her snap, it’s poking her. Ellan hates to be poked. Apparently she finds it to be annoying.
Bio: At a certain point Ellan started to grow up where her parents would be fighting frequently, so she would stay up in her room almost all the time to avoid it. She would have more online friends than offline friends since she spent a lot of time playing video games and going on the internet. Her mom would lecture her negatively about how she doesn’t do anything outside. Of course Ellan would be really upset from this, not only that, but from the way she took it she thought her mom had a problem with having online friends. It was a bit of a different case. Either way, even her and her mom had occasional fights, or just with her parents in general. There was this one specific argument when Ellan was around thirteen, her and her mom were in the car and her seven year old brother in the backseat. The fight was becoming one of the most tense ones yet, eventually following up with a sudden car crash. In short, Ellan and her mom survived while her younger brother died. After that Ellan <span class=""bb-i"">tried</span> to lessen the fighting, and even tried to go outside a little more. But not enough to her mom's pleasure, so sometimes she would silently take on the lecture.
Items: Flashlight, one can of Hawaiian Punch, Nintendo 3DS, smartphone, headphones
Greatest Fear(s): Ellan is claustrophobic, so she fears small, confined spaces. She also fears being in a car accident and its aftermath.

He eat's healthily, keeping himself at an average weight. His hair is short and blond, and his eyes are blue. He wears prescription glasses, without he can't see past his nose. He usually wears random t-shirts with some game on it, and jeans, and shoes. He also wears a red hoodie jacket over top.
Name: Josive Ferrari
Age: 13
Gender: Male

<span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span>:
Josive is a very serious person at times, though other times he can be outgoing and funny. He does have a problem balancing the two. Though, if his friends are acting immaturely, he feels like he needs to act as the mature kid in the group. He's usually very logical, and prefers to stand where he is and figure something out before acting. He can't stand not knowing something.

<span class=""bb-u"">Bio</span>:
Josive Ferrari grew up with his two parents, who met at a local airport. His father was a flight instructor, and his mother was a sports pilot flying in to refuel. The two locked eyes, and fell in love instantly. They were married, moved in together, and had Josive all within a year of their meeting. When Josive was ten, his parents wanted to go on a flight by themselves, so his father sat down with Josive and told him he was the 'man of the house now' before leaving him in charge.

His parents went out on their flight, but never returned. Josive waited in the house for several hours, playing around and the likes. He thought his parents should have been home at a certain point, and thought he was being punished for not taking care of the house. He started cleaning up, and then doing homework, until he eventually passed out. When he woke up, the police where there, and explained what had happened. Josive had to know every detail, and refused to leave the house until they told him... they did, as they deemed it would probably have been best to tell him, especially since there weren't very many details. He found out his family were actually in the pattern for the airport, turning off of base onto Final, but the crosswinds were too strong, so they banked too much and entered into a spin. Their crash was unrecoverable, but they assured him it was painless and instant. Josive, freakishly, was fine after he knew why.

They simply sent him away to an orphanage. There, he made two friends, sisters. Bironica, and Leera. Bironica was the nicer of the two, who actually helped Josive settle in. Leera was always teasing Josive, and trying to make things harder for him. Josive came to like them both, despite Leera's meanness, but he liked Bironica more. He's kept a diary of every event ever happened to him since he was six, and Leera has gotten a hold of it twice. She luckily didn't have a chance to read it either time, as the first time she tried getting Bironica to read it, who didn't want to. The second time Bironica caught Leera just as she was about to read it. Leera's always been known to get the three in trouble... Leera told Josive about this 'haunted house', and dared him to do it. She said she wanted to show Bironica... but she wanted Josive to 'scope the place out' for the two 'harmless and defenseless girls'. Josive rolled his eyes, but eventually gave in. He personally didn't believe any of it, and just wanted to prove to Leera that she was insane. He made a deal with her that if he went there, she <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to go afterwards. Little did he know... he was about to play a very dangerous game.

Items: Glasses, Backpack, Flashlight, Journal and Pencil.
Greatest Fears: Losing Bironica, or Leera. Losing his diary. And, of course, flying. 
Other: He'd just like to know if <span class=""bb-i"">you want to play?</span> I find it funny Josive has a fear of another automobile... like that other character. xD Originally he's from a Pokemon RP, so his parents were murdered by a bird-type Pokemon, so I thought it fit pretty well here.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/teknonick"">@Teknonick</a></footer></blockquote></div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">""...""</span>

Name:
Damian Veeman

Age:
15

Gender: Male

Personality:
Calm-headed and not easily spooked. He tends to be extremely silent and more prone to action, but not violence. Though he is coming out of his little shell, he is still on the fence, and sometimes he can even alienate the only people he considers to care.

Bio:
Damian was a very closed off person, who never really spoke to anyone. He and his parents had a silent agreement that as long as he was sleeping and eating normally, and his grades stayed exemplary, then he would leave them alone and they would leave him alone. Very rarely did he ever indulge in 'feelings' or caring for anyone other than himself. To him, the world would keep to itself as long as he kept to himself and only did what was expected of him. As such, he was invisible, yet a brilliant mind in the classroom. Except, nobody likes being alone... on a whim, one strange day, he tried to be social. It was painful, but he found it to... not be all that bad. Soon he had friends, at least a few, though even then he was still not completely used to it and sometimes he'd be so quiet they'd have to make sure he was still there. Though those he considered 'friends' were still small in number, the ease that he was able to aquire them interested him. Could he one day have ten friends? Twenty? Thirty? A hundred? To him, this concept was... strangely fascinating.

Items:
Headphones and phone, which holds an assortment of musics; Flashlight; granola bar and water bottle in his backpack that otherwise contained school papers.

Greatest Fears:
Being forced to 'socialize' or take part in idle chit-chat. He wears headphones and listens to music to block out the outside world a lot, so he won't have to deal with anyone he doesn't know. He is also terrified of thunder or lightning.

Name: 
Joseph Adams

Age: 
15

Gender: 
Male

Personality: 
Kind at heart, Joseph usually attempts to keep the atmosphere light, but can go too far with his sarcasm that it may seem almost bullying at times. In tense situations however, he tends to shut down almost completely. 

Bio: 
Despite being born into a lower class, mostly neglectful family, Joseph doesn't seem to show any sign of this. He keeps his private life separate from his public life, perhaps as a coping mechanism. He also isn't a saint, having gotten into trouble once or a twice, but he tends to avoid such trouble with authority as his neglectful family suddenly notices him when messages home are sent. His social life is fine, not popular but he has a decent amount of friends.

Items: 
Flashlight, Lighter, Pen, A bag of Trail Mix.  

Greatest Fear(s): 
Sharp objects. He tends to get a bit anxious around them.

Aery's very little for her age, standing only 4'6"" and weighing not quite 70 pounds.
Name: Aeriana ""Aery"" Johnson
Age(13-15): 13
Gender: Female
Personality: Aery is considered a band nerd, in that she's always got at least one book with her and she always has a musical instrument with her. She's quite resourceful and able to think outside the box, and always tries to put a good spin on things. She's very responsible and serious for her age, and can be known as being very uptight and over-protective of her friends, even though most of them are older than her. She's quite social, but most people find her at least a little bit odd.
Bio: Aery's been rather forgotten by her parents, the oldest of five children and the only one able to take care of herself. So she spends most of her time with her friends from band class or really any of her classes. She also spends time furthering her own education, like last summer she took all sorts of classes, from a first-aid class to a music class to an AP chemistry lab class. She never really hangs out with her siblings or parents that much, instead paving her own way in the world. She's known most of the other kids from school, being she is a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) tutor and is a teacher's aide for a good number of classes.
Items: Flashlight, First-aid kit, Piccolo Clarinet, water bottle, bag of hard candy. (She left her books at home because she couldn't fit them into her backpack with her clarinet.)
Greatest Fear(s): She fears watching her friends suffer, and she especially fears being in pain herself because then she can't help anyone else. She's terrified of knives. And fire.

Oh, derp. Leera is a friend of my character Josive. I've only used her (And Bironica) once before. They won't be there... just mentioned in Josive's Bio, so it makes sense as to why he's there (He's pretty rational, and wouldn't do it for any reason other than to prove something to Leera.)

Uh... the room upstairs with the closet. It has something to do with something more boring than ""Dives under the bed and waits!"". It's just something tiny and nothing big, but I like to think out possible posts in the future so I don't reach a point where I have nothing planned.

You must defend their honor from the evil overlord Lavul, by hiding them is mysterious ways whenever he lurks... for he has the power of an infinite world... his only weakness, is the gather of the Pageclaims.

Also, I'm VERY sorry... but... right now... I have to get ready for the day, then head out for a long appointment. THAT'S when I'll be able to post my app. Maybe while I'm away... but, I might not finish it on my phone. Who knows.

Turns out it takes 35 minutes to get to Warrenton, not 55. So, I have time. Plus, it's 11:50, and the appointment isn't until 2:20. Dang I have a lot of time.

May I claim 'That kid that stands not scared, calling out his friend because he 'knows' it was her pulling a prank on them'? Ehe.

Pros and cons for that plan:

Pros:
-Fun first post!
-I get to say my character is usually smarter, but... of course, USUALLY, so that would mean AFTER that stupid mistake.

Cons:
-Will stand around while everyone else hides.
-Won't think to hide right away.
-Will get caught within the first few cycles due to kicking his feet around and not hiding.
-Lose a +1 life.

Woohoo! Those are pros and cons for me. Just reverse them for the evil character... lol.</div>"

Name: Jordan Ruby

Age(13-15): 15

Gender: Male

Personality: Jordan is outgoing and confident. He is slightly narcissistic, and seeks to be recognized by the people around him. However, when it counts, he is a nice, generous and genuine person. He's fairly smart, and has good logic skills, but he's no genius. He's also a musician and actor.

Bio: Jordan's life had never been amazing or supper exciting. He has two sisters, one older, one younger. As a child, he was always imagining, but unlike some, his thoughts weren't within his own head. If he had a good idea, he would say it, and make sure it was recognized. He began learning piano when he was 6, and has enjoyed that more and more recently. In the past few years he has taught himself to write songs and to sing.

For most of his life his parent's were happily married, but over the past few months that has changed. After lots of arguing, his father moved out, and he hasn't seen him much since. He became the only male in his household. It has been tough for him to go through this, but he doesn't mention it much to his friends, he simply tries to go on with life.

Items: Flashlight, Smartphone, Water-bottle, Wallet, Half-eaten Sub.

Greatest Fear: Jordan is scared of not being recognized for what he does well.

Other: You Want To Play? Jordan does.</div></div></div>"

It's based off a story I've recently heard about autistic kids. Apparently, here's a sub-group of them where they actually 'grow-out' of being autistic, but before then they have little physical control, but they can still see and hear everything. I was wondering how I could play out a character like that, and if they might ever evolve into a cool character for other RPs. I would be interested in how well he/she might work here. I see you said you would need one more girl character for that boy character to be accepted. I can make it a she, and then they can join!

To make the character have a reason for going to this thing, however, means I would require someone to be a bad older/younger sister/brother and bring her to this 'event', for say, they were babysitting her, but still wanted to go to this thing with their friends. Ideas, questions, a simple no? lol

Actually, this new character could be the younger sister of Jordan... as that would make him even MORE annoyed at being the only man in the house ""Aw man, I'm the only boy, and now I have to take care of my autistic sister!?"" that is, if he would think of her that way.

I don't know that it matters if you post today or on Sunday. Personally I would vote for today because it would give us single pringles all weekend to work on our first posts. But it's up to everyone else's votes.

Come on, hurry up! We all know you have a heart!""

Don't kill, don't kill, there's another way.

We've got to stay

Theresa was in class of course with Pierce behind her. She sat calmly, listening to the teacher. It seemed everyone had another class project. She was fine with this of course, she had a few ideas who she would pair with. The teacher then stepped forward. she stood up straight,  looking to the class.

""Ok everyone, this project will test all your knowledge and skills. You are to choose any animal and study it, watch it and learn everything you can about it. It cannot be a everyday animal. It has to be exotic, one you dont see often around the house. Whichever team wins, will get a prize. The prize will be whatever the two students want, within reason. I will be making the teams.""

She finished speaking, as she did, she placed a poster up with all the teams. Everyone got up in a rush, but Theresa slowly and calmly got up. She walked to the poster, and began ro feel the writing, doing this allowed her to read it in her mind, almost like seeing it. She searched for her name slowly, and when she found it, she stopped. Theresa slowly slid her hand to the right, to see her partners name. When she read it, she slowly lowered her hand. She was with Pierce, the one who bullied her the most. She took a deep breath, taking a soft sigh, then she sat down again. This wasnt going to be fun, although, this was no coincidence, this was fate. This was meant to happen, a new beginning. She began to think, what animal would they eork on?</div>"
10804,Bolton High School: The Egg of Mystery.,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76084-bolton-high-school-the-egg-of-mystery,['1x1'],2015-02-06 03:39:00,Blitz,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Pierce was leaning back in his desk, zoning out as usual. The drone of the class went on, and his eyes drifted drifted from the clock, to the window, to the front corner of the room, and then finally they settled on the back of the head of the girl sitting in front of him, Theresa. She was a very eccentric girl, a very easy target for his taunts. He was in the middle of formulating a clever insult when the word ""project"" came out of the teachers mouth.

Project? What? Immediately, his attention was fixed on the teacher as she explained the upcoming assignment. He frowned when she mentioned that she was assigning the teams. He had been planning to work with Jake or Andre, but of course, that was up to chance now. As soon as the teacher set up the poster, Pierce had been among those who dashed to the board to see the pairings. His eyes moved down the list until he saw it: Theresa and Pierce.

That was kind of a letdown. Of course he was paired off with the weirdest girl in class. Though the quiet and weird ones were usually the smartest. Or so he hoped.

He had already gone back to his chair when Theresa had stood up to ""look"" at the poster as well. She was the last one, of course, and was taking her good ol' time at it. Pierce didn't even know how she could read the writing with that blindfold over her eyes, but she seemed to register that she was paired with him when her hand dropped slowly from his name. He smirked.

When she returned to his chair, Pierce leaned forward to get closer to her.

""Welcome to hell,"" he whispered with a chuckle. ""Just kidding, of course. Mostly."" He sighed, and rubbed his eyes. ""Let's just get this project done as quickly as possible, alright? Do you have any ideas?""</div>"

She wasn't sure what she wanted to work on. She looked up quickly to the bell as she began to hear it ring, marking the end of the lesson. She turned to Pierce once more.

""Come home with me, I am surrounded by nature. We can decide there.""

She stood up, collecting her bag as she turned to him, wondering if he'dhe'd take her proposal. She then walked out the classroom, where her assignment awaited.</div>"

Tall, strong build, etc. 

Personality: Pierce has an inflated ego and is very confident in himself and what he does. While a normal amount of self esteem is healthy, Pierce has it in excess. He finds it humors to pick on others and, really, doesn’t feel much of anything about it. His intention isn’t always to hurt per se, but simply to get others to chuckle at him. Despite his rather bro-ish disposition, he is actually pretty smart, though he doesn’t like to showcase this quality. He is a critical thinker, and excellent at analyzing situations swiftly, which is why he’s so good at playing sports, especially football. 

Bio: Pierce is the first child of Mark and Jasmine Tarantino, and the older brother of Destiny Tarantino, age 15. His father works as a physical therapist and personal trainer, and his mother, a nurse.

Pierce always liked sports as a kid. He played his fair share of soccer, little-league baseball, basketball, football, and even lacrosse. When he got to high school, he decided to join the school sports team. It’s hard to balance with his schoolwork, but he somehow manages to get by. He’s good but he’s not the best, hence he doesn’t think he’ll play any of these sports in college, at least, not D-1.

Family: Mark Tarantino (father), Jasmine Tarantino (mother), Destiny Tarantino (younger sister)
Friends: Jake Campbell (from football), Andre Smith (also from football) 
Loved Ones: Apart from his closest friends and family, none.
Sentimental Attachment: None. He just broke up with his last girlfriend.
Other: Nothing that I can think of right now.</div></div></div>"

Personality: Theresa is a calm and kind person, who is always forgiving, no matter what, she is bullied because of her disability, but she holds no resent, no hatred. She justs takes it. She believes everyone can change eventually, and she believes, that one day, pierce will be a better man. 

Bio: Theresa was born blind, never being able to see the beauty of the world. Her parents supported her as much as they could, but she severely struggled. So, they took her to a doctor, who was said to be able to cure blindness. They paid him $20.000 to cure her. Although, it wasn't a cure, more than a new way of seeing. He blind folded her, and helped her see a new world, help her by opening her mind. He taught her to 'sense' the world. Using her ears to listen, and her mind to see, she was able to see without seeing, sense things that were blocking her path. Although,  when she used this at school, she was called a witch. Nobody liked her, everyone made fun of her, but, she just didn't care.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Usually very free-spirited, acting informal around others and often forgetting to address his superiors properly. That's not to say he's disrespectful, quite the opposite in fact, as he does look up to and respect those of higher rank. His main problem is having a tendency to forget to use proper etiquette is all. He's always eager to train or spar, refusing to let any opportunity to prove himself slip by. That could also be considered his weakness as well, as his overall eagerness to prove himself can and has gotten him into trouble on occasion. Beyond that, though, he's a good kid at heart and can be obedient when the situation gets serious.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Unlike many apprentices, who live with their families in the main town of the Land of Departure, Rei actually lives in Master Yen Sid's tower. This is because, unlike the Master's other pupils, Rei doesn't actually have a family that he's aware of. For as long as he remembers, it was the Master who took care of him, helped him learn to walk, and all in all acted as the boy's father when he would otherwise have had none. This created a rather close bond between Rei and Yen Sid, though it's not without its annoyances, as Rei developed a history of speaking out against the Master more than others, and also feeling like he was being coddled compared to the other apprentices despite Yen Sid's insistence that that wasn't the case.

So that was Rei's life for the most part. Living in a wizard's tower, raised by one of the last remaining survivors of the War of Souls, who also became his Keyblade Master on top of that. And while Rei is usually happy enough to accept that, he sometimes can't shake the feeling that there's something more, or like something is missing.

That said, he's not necessarily opposed to staying in one place, or following some sort of structure set in place by someone else. He make's a clear distinction between something that was forced on him (a cage) and something he agreed to or chose (a nest). While he is very familiar with high society etiquette, he also can't stand it. As a result, he is a very casual, touchy feely kind of guy <br/> <br/>History: Cutty Flam was born to an influential family, one with quite a bit of money. You'd think that growing up loaded would make for an awesome childhood...well you'd be wrong. Since there was no one else his age that his parents deemed 'fit' to be with him, Cutty grew up very alone. Despite being their only child, his parents rarely had any time for him. In fact, it was only when they dragged him off to parties that they spent the most time with him. Despite the fact that they were his parents, they always felt like strangers to him. Not helping was that he even sometimes forgot what they looked like.<br/><br/>One day, when seven year old Cutty was really miserable, he decided to wander outside of his family's estate. As he had never caused any sort of problems in the past, Cutty wasn't being watched, so he was able to get out without any real trouble. Once out in the streets, he quickly realized that his clothes would give away his family's status. He was able to find a decent looking <a href=""http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101207041240/disney/images/f/fe/Kingdom_Hearts_-_Organization_XIII_Cloak.png"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">cloak</a> that had been thrown away in an ally. While it was too big for him, it did it's job of hiding his clothes. Now blending in with the people round him, he soon came across a group of kids his age. Seeing his cloak, they all assumed that he was from a poor family, since it was far to big for him. When he told the other kids his name, they all laughed, since they thought it sounded stupid. The oldest looking one then said that his new name was Franky.<br/><br/>Over the course of a year, Franky would continue to sneak out and play with his friends. While he never had any trouble getting out, he did find it kind of depressing that no one ever noticed that he was gone. However one day, one of his family's servants found him outside with the other children. Bringing him home, she informed his parents about it at once. As punishment, Franky was confined to his room for a full week. When they finally let him out, they had him dressed up in nice clothes and brought him to a fancy restaurant. This confused Franky greatly, even more when he saw another family sit at their table, a mother, father, and daughter about his age. However things soon became quite clear to him; they were arranging a marriage. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. Franky couldn't stand these two strangers controlling his life anymore, so he ran. Out of the restaurant and into the streets. While his family sent out a search party, it was a Keyblade Master who found him first. He offered to bring young Franky to the castle so that he could be trained to use a Keyblade, something that Franky jumped to accept. Once at the castle, in order to differentiate 'Cutty Flam' from 'Franky' he let his hair grow out. To his surprise, he found that it spiked up completely naturally.<br/> <br/>Keyblade: Skyblade<br/>~Commands~ <br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Attack:</font> Sliding Dash<br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Magic:</font> Zero Graviga<br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Shotlock:</font> Photon Charge  <br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Summon:</font> <br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">Command Style:</font> Sky Climber</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Yurei is a very calm individual, who can easily make friends with almost everyone in the world. However there are two things that are able to piss him off, mistaking him for a woman and threatening the security his companions and/or friends. However being calm doesn't mean he doesn't know how to be scary, with a simple icy smile is he is able to terrify even the bravest of the warriors, that would probably be due to the shock. He also speaks about matters like death, suicide, self harming or torture in a very natural way.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>Yurei is a traveler, surviving with a pocket of munny on his pocket and his cooking abilities to grant him food(DUUH!) and some extra munny for his necessities. He came from a perfect family, a caring mom, a nice dad and two relying older brothers, however...he never really achieved anything by himself, his brothers were vastly superior to him in anything. What did he do? He left home to expand his horizons and get new skills, that said travel began when he was 16 years old.

He doesn't recall how he achieved his keyblade, he could bring it forth ever since he was 12, but he really never saw any use to it, that was until he reached the Lands of Departure and met other keyblade wielders like him! He decided then to stop his journey for a while and train, like this he could serve for a greater purpose. He managed to make some good friends with his easy going personality, and is said to be a very skilled magic user and a good tactician.

A rather girlish looking man, Jinsei is painfully aware of how feminine he can appear sometimes, so much in fact that he recoils at the very mention of him being girly. His slender body only adds to this dislike of his, though his lean and cut muscles are a small boost to his pride. He stands at a height of 5'8"" with dark brown hair and crimson eyes, leaving many to believe that he has, in some form, delved into Darkness.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Jinsei means Life, and while that term is greatly unappreciated, it would seem that the name has instilled a tremendous love for all life in the lad. A bit playful and all around reckless, the adventure loving youth is greatly influenced by the history and struggles of the Keyblade Wielders before him. His devotion to the forgotten art is unrivaled, as he goes beyond the duty to correct what's wrong. His fiery spirit is often his undoing but more often than not, its the light in his heart that guides him.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The child of a Magician under the orders of Yen Sid and a traveling vagabond, Jinsei has always been around the mystic arts and paranormal of worlds. In the Land of the Departure, he was known as a troublemaker who got into physical confrontations over the respect of the Keyblade Wielders. His mother who worked with Yen Sid was often reprimanding him. 

Over the years, Yen Sid saw something inside the boy and though it lingered on both Pride and Devotion, he was adamant about grasping him for the light. His devotion to the Keyblade was immense, often leading him to dark paths. However, he overcame this with sheer sentiment and light, hoping to never face the darkness again.

Personality: She is extremely laid back and carefree rarely taking anything seriously. While she is generally nice and approachable she actually has very little trust in people. She generally needs to have absolute trust in someone to consider them a friend but will make exceptions. She spends a lot of time training and polishing her skills. She also judges a person by their actions not by the power they wield. She hates those who disregarde the feelings of others.
History: She was born into a low class family with many money problems. As a result she was abused and harassed by both of her parents. She spent much of her time away from home with the few friends she had away from home. She often got into trouble around the city which just frustrated her parents more. Her life continued like this making her susceptible to darkness. Eventually her parents were fed up and sent her off to Yen Sid making her his problem when she was 12. Instead of sending her off somewhere he decided to train her and help her keep the darkness in check. Though she was often out and about she never missed any training. She was a quick learner picking up combat especially quickly. Over the years her parents have tried to have a better relationship but she ignored them for the most part however.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Tremere has a been an apprentice for just over nine years now but few people at the academy know much beyond the basic facts about her. She is kind and courteous, and few people can say anything negative about her demeanor; however, Trem doesn't talk much because she's shy. She is friendly with all of her fellow apprentices, and differential to her mentors, but makes little effort to deepen her relationships. She is unerringly loyal to her cause and her team and incurs no doubt about her ability or faith. Trem is intelligent in a logical way, and likes to read and write and enjoys her studies. Trem is humble but knows her own abilities and limitations. She is known to have a few different moods, some of them more talkative than others.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> 
Tremere Wilder was born to a lower class family in a big city on the Land of Departure. Her family struggled to get by, but they were close and loved each other dearly. Alone with herself and her parents, Trem had two older brothers that protected her on the streets and from the monsters in her closet. Her life, although not easy, was warm and nurturing up until the age of seven. One night while she was staying with a friend for a sleepover, her house burned down and trapped her whole family inside, killing them and leaving the girl an orphan.

She jumped around a few different foster homes and other transient placements until she landed in a prestigious boarding school thanks to her maturity and intelligence. She was only enrolled for a short time, however, after the school took a field trip to a museum that praised the Keyblade Society. While she was there, she met one of the masters of the academy, and eventually he brought her to the castle for training. Trem still doesn't know why that master did what he did, but she is grateful.

It was a starry night, as usual. On the summit, near the forecourt of the castle, there was a training ground, within it a series of rings hanging on spinning poles to act as targets for practice. But just beyond that was a cliff side where one could get a near perfect view of the night sky. In this particular place, a boy sat on the grass, leaned back against the rock. He looked relaxed, but in reality was anything but that. Instead, he was frustrated, angry even. Events that had transpired earlier that day had put him in a sour mood. He'd come up this place to be alone for a while, but knew it wouldn't last. He figured someone would eventually come by to check on him, but he'd at least get a few moments to himself to think before then, ""What's his deal? He's not being fair at all..."" said the boy in a mumbled tone as he thought back to earlier that day.

<span class=""bb-u"">A Few Hours Ago</span>

""What?"" asked Rei in a raised tone, ""What do you mean I don't get to take the exam? Why?"" he clenched his fists angrily. He and his Master, Yen Sid, were not alone in the main hall of the castle. No, the other Apprentices were gathered as well, and had just been informed that they would be allowed to take the Mark of Mastery Exam tomorrow morning. All of them, that is, except for Rei. Rei stood in angry defiance of Yen Sid's decision, admittedly making a scene but honestly didn't care.

""You're not ready yet, Reiner."" said Yen Sid, keeping his composure and not even raising his voice, ""There is always next time, after all. The discussion is closed. You're all dismissed."" well, the discussion may have been over officially, but Yen Sid hadn't heard the last of Rei's complaints. For the rest of the day, once they were home in the Master's tower, Rei tried again and again to change Yen Sid's mind but to no avail. After a while Rei just got fed up with it and stormed out. He'd found his way to the cliff side at the training sight and remained there until well after night fall.

<span class=""bb-u"">Now</span>

""Ah, come on!"" Rei said, raising his voice as he suddenly got up from the ground. He swung his fist, punching the air in front of him in frustration, ""What do they got that I don't? I'm pretty sure I trained just as much as them, so what's the big secret?"" he then just sighed, now starting to feel more depressed than angry. He jammed his fists into his pockets and kicked at the grass, ""Why do I have to be the one that falls behind...?""</div>"

Alight with a thousand twinkling points millions of miles away, the night sky still provided illumination on this world. Maybe it was symbolic to the to the world itself, which was a beacon against the intrusive darkness, that even in the night the world was lit enough to be navigable. Tremere's boots made a clacking rapport on the hard tile flooring and the sharp sound echoed in the large, empty hall. It wasn't a strange site to see the girl wandering the halls at night, although she never lacked in energy the next morning. The yawning chasms of the high rounded ceilings draped in shadow did not frighten her; she could not remember the last time she was afraid of the dark. Not since before she had even became an apprentice. 

The dazzling stars were calling to her this ponderous night. She was anxious about the morning that was to follow. Although she was confident in her abilities, she had never been one too consumed by pride and knew that there was a possibility of failure. Their one fellow apprentice who was told he could not participate had not taken the news very well and seemed to have less of a grasp of similar concepts. Tremere turned a corner, her long arms swaying in the murky light, and found herself in the main hall. Off to her left rose the plinth on which the large master thrones stood resolute in shadow. A few shafts of light shot down in front of the thrones, the contrast of which made them seem pooled in ink. The apprentice stood for a moment, taking in the picturesque image, before turning to the opposite direction and the opposing doors that loomed near wide windows. Steps still clicking, she made her way to that side of the grandiose hall and peered out the window.

The landscaping of the area was prim and clean like always. Yellow light shone from several lampposts in the circular courtyard and glinted off the golden colored railings and accents of the building. A wisp of a reflection stared back at her, wide purple eyes shining with the light reflected in their moisture. There was a bit of a commotion outside, but she couldn't see anyone. It must have echoed down from the summit. She only heard a single voice, and she couldn't make out the words or the owner of the voice from so far away. Running her hand on the embroidered wall, she slowly sauntered to the small, single-person door that was cut into its huge cousin, and pushed it open. The night was cool, and a slight breeze made her shiver. Goosebumps rose on her flesh as she passed through the threshold; she wrapped her arms around herself and the door quietly shut behind her. 

Her black hair swayed in the breeze. She rocked on her feet as she looked out to the sky. A small sigh escaped her as her eyes explored the expanse above, stretching like a canvas across the top of their world, a blanket and a shield, both muffling them and protecting them. Tomorrow should would be tested and judged, and if she was found worthy, she might be able to make her own mark on that canvas. She shuddered.</div>"

After all of his hard work, he was being prevented from taking the Mark of Mastery Exam. It really didn't make any sense at all. There wasn't anything wrong with him, so why wasn't he being allowed to take the exam? Franky wished that he knew what the Master was thinking, because as far as he could tell, none of this made any sense. ""I'm starting to get a really bad feeling about this"" he said as he laid down on the hill ""this just doesn't seem right."" Franky was no longer as excited for the Mark of Mastery Exam as he was before, the sense of dread that he felt ""is anyone else feeling uneasy about the exam?"" he asked the others</div>"

After yesterday's announcement, Jin found himself fully trusting in Yen Sid's decision, though he knew not the reason why. If Master Yin Sid had found Rei unworthy and himself so, then it had to be good reason. The youth stood outside, unable to find sleep that night. Which usually was not a problem but with the all-important Mark of Mastery tomorrow, it was heavily on his mind. 

<span class=""bb-i"">I</span> will <span class=""bb-i"">pass that test. I haven't been training and working my butt off just to fail. And after I do I'll fix everything that's wrong. I'll help rebuild and I'll help protect. That is the promise I've made to myself.</span>

When he heard the door sway open and looked upon Tremere, he smiled almost instantly. He had to admit, as beautiful as she was, that it seemed almost natural for him to have a crush on her. Even if she did inspire more life out of him than usual, it was worth the over-optimism. 

He turned towards her, his large smile falling into lightheartedness as he walked over and unraveled his crimson scarf from his neck. It wasn't much but he'd bet it was better than nothing. He held it out to her with both hands. His unorthodox clothing was contradicting, with his left sleeve being long and the other short, and his Hakama being the same. Still, he wanted her to use it.

Just as her purple eyes had held a mysterious quality to them, his crimson ones were oddly bright.

""You couldn't sleep either? tomorrow is the big day,"" he said. ""I'm cheering for you, Trem.""</div>"

He was right, his privacy had indeed not lasted long at all. He looked forward again, this time looking up at the stars and holding his arms behind his head, ""He's patronizing me, I just know it."" no, Rei didn't mean that at all, but he was just in one of those moods that made people say things they didn't really mean. He spotted a shooting star just then and closed his eyes, actually making a wish that the Master would change his mind. <span class=""bb-i"">Yeah, like that would actually work. Can't blame a guy for trying.</span>

""So what are you doing way out here? I mean I'd be asleep by now if I were in your shoes."" he sat back down on the grass with a heavy sigh. He had to admit he was pretty tired by now, but going back home meant talking to the Master and he didn't feel like dealing with that just yet. No, he was much more interested in just relaxing under the stars for a while longer.</div>"

Jinsei, one of her fellow apprentices, had escaped her notice when she had exited the castle. He stood, dully illuminated at this hour, in his haphazardly cut clothing that the young woman didn't quiet understand but found charming. His dark hair pulled back around his effeminate features, he worked to unwrap the red scarf coiled around his neck. A genuine smile lit her fair features as he offered his scarf, and the girl took it gladly with a slight bow. She wrapped it first around her neck and then her shoulders, cradling the ends in her hands on her chest. 

""Thank you, Jin, and I hope you do well,"" She said with a nod, her lips holding onto her smile. ""I usually roam around a bit a night, though tonight I feel a bit less inclined to seep than most."" She wandered out a bit farther with slow, unbalanced steps, but kept her gaze on Jin's vibrant eyes. ""How are you feeling about tomorrow?"" She stopped near the banister and leaned back against it, peering up at him with her head cocked to the side. </div>"

He followed her shaky steps, although they looked more purposeful to him. He looked downward with a small smile, thinking of the returned compliment she had given him. As, reciprocal as it was, it still made him happy to hear it from her. If she had wished him well than surely the others had as well. And even if they didn't, it wasn't like he was doing this for them. He had always loved the tales and legends, he had a deep respect for the Bearers and would do anything to uphold their legacy. 

His hands found themselves behind the small of his back. ""Ah, tomorrow,"" he sighed. He had been avoiding the topic since learning about it, only tonight had he really let it wrack his nerves. ""Its... unnerving if nothing else. I've been trying to figure out the tests, the possibilities, and I'm coming up blank. I just hope its something I excel in."" He chuckled nervously. 

""What about you? you said you can't sleep so you must be thinking about it pretty strongly."" He folded his arms over his chest to shield himself from the cold. ""Even though you don't have anything to worry about. You have a strong heart,"" he told her.</div>"

If there was really some disaster coming I'm pretty sure Master would have warned us by now."" at that moment a leaf floated over his face and gently touched his nose before the wind picked up and blew it away. Rei rubbed his nose instinctively in response and said, ""If you ask me, you guys have this exam in the bag. You'll ace it for sure, I just know it..."" <span class=""bb-i"">Yeah, and then I'll have to play a tough game of catch up.</span> He yawned, realizing he was getting tired despite his mood. He got up, giving his arms and good stretch before taking a few steps toward home, ""I'm turning in for the night. See you guys tomorrow."" and after that he left. It was time to face the music.

Master Yen Sid had long since set up his own personal tower to serve as his living quarters. He'd been using it to study magic and sorcery long before he became a Keybearer, and after he did he began using it for his own personal training. He never expected to raise any children here, but he took in the young Reiner nonetheless, having not been able to bring himself to make the boy grow up as an orphan. He was sitting at a table reading a parchment when Reiner entered, having returned from wherever it was he spent the evening. Yen Sid looked up at his student and gestured for him to sit down. Rei did so, having fully expected a long-winded lecture but was surprised when Yen Sid instead used his magic to conjure a chessboard with its pieces all set up. This wasn't the first time they'd played, but this was the last thing Rei expected his Master to do after his outburst earlier that day.

""So... you're not changing your mind, are you?"" asked Rei, making the first move by sliding a pawn two spaces ahead. The Master silently shook his head and made a similar opening move. Rei sighed in disappointed, ""...of course not."" then moved one of his knights forward, ""Tell me why, at least. If there's something I'm lacking, tell me what it is and I'll work on it.""

Yen Sid closed his in contemplation, ""If you must ask me what it is you lack, then you have not overcome it yet."" he responded gently as he made another move on the chess board, ""For as long as you've trained you have been eager to fight and prove yourself. But what purpose does it serve? Strength or knowledge for no other sake than their own is meaningless. For when a seeker of knowledge or power finally obtains the power he seeks, then his life becomes empty and hollow."" as he said all this, the two had been going back and forth in their chess game. Yen Sid was obviously the superior chess player, but Rei had been showing a noticeable improvement as of late.

""What's wrong with bettering myself? I thought that was one of the foundations of our training...""

""Indeed,"" responded Yen Sid with a kindly nod, ""but that alone is insufficient. Power of any kind, be it strength, knowledge, or skill, is only truly meaningful when used for something other than oneself.""

""Okay,"" Rei said, his King piece becoming more in danger as Yen Sid's pieces closed in on it, ""what should I do with my power then?""

Yen Sid close his and shook his head with a heavy heart, ""That, dear boy, is why you are not ready.""

""I think I understand,"" lied Rei, and he stood from the table, ""You'd better rest, you're gonna have a long day tomorrow with that exam."" he left the table to go to bed, but not before silently tipping over his king piece to surrender the game to Yen Sid. That must have been thousandth game they played over the years and not once had Rei been able to to win. Still, he liked to think he was getting closer to a win with each passing game.</div>"

Her brows knit together at Jin's reluctance to the topic, and she hoped she hadn't made him uncomfortable. ""You have been training longer than I have, Jin. No matter what kind of test the master gives us, you're going to do great."" She folded her hands in her lap, gathering the end's of the boy's red scarf.   <br/><br/>""I... Yes. The test is on my mind,"" She said with a strained half smile, her glossy eyes rolling to the pavement. She wasn't really worried about the test itself as much as what would come after. She doubted her ability to uphold the responsibility of a true master. ""It means a lot to hear that, Jin."" She flashed him a grateful look.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">Jinsei smiled back. To see her smile in response to his words made his heart quicken even more, he hoped he should no signs of it. He reached up and touched the side of his neck, his fingers gently rubbing as he thought of his next words. Whenever she was around he made sure to speak carefully, to choose his words where otherwise he'd speak rashly.   <br/><br/>""Well, I try,"" he responded with a wide grin. ""Its not everyday a young lad gets a shot at their dream. For as long as I could remember I've respected the Bearers of old, wanted nothing more than to be one and uphold the light... now that the chance has come, I find it hard to admit I'm rooting for another. Though, I could think of no one other than you to root for besides myself.""   <br/><br/>""I'm rambling, I know. But I can't help it."" He looked up towards the darkness overhead, the stars gleamed especially bright to him. ""Legends are watching and I want to be remembered as someone who wanted nothing else than to convey the power of light.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#92278f"">The young girl stood, ""You are strong, Jin. You'll be remembered. Though for what you'r actions will decide,"" Tremere thought Jin was strong and able, despite the distance she kept from his heated routine, and had confidence he would do well. She found his words slightly inspiring, if only for the fact that they were both candidly honest and flattering. A pink blush colored her cheeks. She wanted to say they were all friends and rooting for each other, but she didn't, because she wasn't sure if that was how he meant it. <br/><br/>She followed his gaze to the sky, ""I like to think that if there is anyone watching that they at least see the effort we all put in... I'm not always the strongest, but I try my best, and I think that's enough."" Her gaze met his, her pales fingers curling around the scarf bundled at her neck. ""I don't mind when you ramble,"" her voice was quieter, and then she cleared her throat and added, ""I didn't really have any plans to do anything else. Maybe it'll help us both sleep."" She rubbed the soft fabric of his scarf between her fingers.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">""Who knew, its looks like my rambling does have a use after,"" he said kindly, turning to look at her. She had touched the fabric of his scarf gently and it sprung an idea into his mind. Tilting his head to observe her even further, he smirked. ""Do you like it? the scarf that is. You can have it, think of it as a good luck charm... and a thanks for listening to my heart."" <br/><br/>He didn't have a problem telling her that her words had comforted him, that he took solace in that thought. If the legends from the ages were looking on at him, he could only hope that they were proud of his effort. Even still, it wouldn't keep him from trying to do even greater things for the worlds. ""When I was little I use to get into fights all the time. Now that I've come this far, I can't for the life of me figure out why but I remember that it felt right. Like they deserved what I gave them.""<br/><br/>""What do you think, do I look like the type to beat up people senselessly?"" Jin asked.</font> <br/><br/><font color=""#92278f"">""..You want me to have it?"" She replied with wide eyes. She looked at the item in question, running her hands down the trailing ends.  ""If you are certain, then I'd be glad to accept it. It's very warm."" Tremere rarely received gifts and the gesture lightened her anxiety about the upcoming test. ""Thank you, Jin."" <br/><br/>""You? A bully?"" She said lightly, a look of disbelief on her face. When she had been younger, she spent little time with the other apprentices, and hadn't known that about Jin. A small giggle fell from her lips at the thought. She shook her head with a bemused smile, putting a dainty hand on her cheek. ""That's a little hard to imagine."" She was surprised at how open he was to her; although, this was one of the more honest conversations she had been part of in a while. ""No... That's not the kind of person you are."" She bit her lip and shivered once more.</font><br/><br/><font color=""#9e0039"">Jin let his head drop just a bit, wanting to hide the joy in his eyes. He was sure she knew but he just couldn't bare showing such naked emotion to her, even if it was only in the eyes. He smiled faintly, though he wanted for it be so much wider. ""...Thanks, Trem. It really made me feel better."" <br/><br/>Catching the sight of her shiver, Jin figured it was time for the two of them to return to their beds. The night was especially beautiful but it was often magical times like this when it could be its most unforgiving. Nervously, he rubbed the back of his head and smiled. ""Well... I think I'm heading to sleep now,"" he lied, knowing that he'd simply be staring up at the ceiling the rest of the night. ""You should do the same, Trem. Tomorrows the big day after all, remember I'm rooting for you.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#92278f"">At the mention of sleep, Tremere unexpectedly let out a small yawn. She blinked a few times and then bobbed her head in the smallest of nods. ""It is getting late."" She glanced toward the door and then back to Jin. She was much more likened to the idea of going to bed after their conversation. ""I'm rooting for you too, Jin. I hope you and I both do well."" The girl patted his shoulder and her hand lingered there as she moved away, a genuine smile on her face. She walked slowly to the large castle doors, her eyes on him. She hefted it open and disappeared inside.</font></div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Long ago, people lived in peace, bathed in the warmth of light. Everyone loved the light. Then people began to fight over it. They wanted to keep it for themselves. And darkness was born in their hearts. The darkness spread, swallowing the light and many people's hearts. It covered everything, and the world disappeared. But small fragments of light survived... in the hearts of children. With these fragments of light, children rebuilt the lost world. It's the world we live in now. But the true light sleeps deep within the darkness. That's why the worlds are still scattered, divided from each other. But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open. And the true light will return. So listen, child. Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you. Your heart will shine with its power and push the darkness away.</span>

That tale, while seemingly full of hope, holds a tragic secret to those who know the truth. For the truth of that tale is one of a bloody war fought between wielders of the Keyblade in the hopes of forging the almighty X-Blade. Their clash was so great that everything was nearly swallowed up by Darkness. However, when the world, which was only one at that time, managed to survive by being split into countless worlds spread across the stars, the survivors on that great Battlefield, the Keyblade Graveyard, made a vow. They vowed to never again fight among themselves for the X-Blade. To solidify that vow, the paths used by Keyblade Wielders, the Lanes Between, were locked and were forever forbidden from use.

What was left of the Keyblade Wielders rebuilt themselves in the Land of Departure, where they eventually came to thrive again under the banner of the Keyblade Society, ruled by a wise council of Keyblade Masters. Several centuries after the Keyblade War, a Keyblade Master named Malcolm, who was one of the Society's ruling Councilmen, turned on his fellow Masters and slew them. He then vanished from the Land of Departure by unknown means, to a an unknown land where he began experimenting with the power of Darkness. He forcibly combined traits and aspects of many creatures, including one born of Darkness, and infused them with Pure Darkness to give them life and more power. Soon, he returned with an army of these abominations and launched an attack against the Keyblade Society, starting the War of Souls.

Meanwhile, the Keyblade Society was forced to name one of its surviving Keyblade Masters as King so that they would have a suitable leader to face Malcolm and his abominations that they dubbed The Soulless. The Master in question, a man named Rayon, led the Society in a series of battles that spanned over six months. The War of Souls, as it came to be called, nearly destroyed the Land of Departure. The Society persevered, and Rayon managed to defeat Malcolm at long last. But when he did so, Rayon and Malcolm were covered in a brief clash of Light and Darkness, and in the aftermath neither could be found, and were both presumed dead. Mysterious circumstances aside, the Soulless vanished with their creator and the war was won. And so the Society could begin to rebuild itself once again.

20 Years have passed. And in that time, only one of the Keyblade Masters who fought in the War still live on. His name is Yen Sid, and he presided in a tower of sorcery located outside of town. In this tower he has been instructing the next generation of the Keyblades' Chosen. At long last he has told them that they are ready to be tested for the Mark of Mastery. On the eve of their exams, the eager apprentices spend one last night together in friendship or alone in training, for with the dawn will come changes to their lives, some of which will be rather unexpected.

<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Follow all the site's standard rules regarding flaming and such.</li><li>Keep the tone of the RP in the PG-13 range.</li><li>While Kingdom Hearts is known for combining Final Fantasy and Disney, I will be incorporating characters and locales from other sources.</li><li>Please let me be the judge of whether or not a third-party entity fits the setting or not. In other words, any ideas you have in regards to this should be run by me first.</li><li>These rules, as written, are subject to be altered, deleted, or have more added to them as I see fit.</li><li>Let's try to write an epic tale and have a little fun while we're at it, shall we?</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-h2"">Abilities</div>
Abilities in this setting will be used as they are in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, ie the Command system. This means just about any combat ability falls into one of the following Command categories:

<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Basic Attack Commands:</span> These are basic Keyblade attacks such as Strike Raid, Sliding Dash, Quick Blitz and the like. There are some with elemental properties as well such as Fire Dash and Barrier Surge, but anything more powerful than that falls under one of the other categories listed below.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Basic Magic Commands:</span> Pretty self explanatory. These are generic magic spells such as Fire, Thunder and the like. Their second tier variants and beyond fall under one of the categories further below.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Advanced Attack Commands:</span> These are slightly more powerful Keyblade attacks such as Aerial Slam. Anything stronger will count as a Mega Attack Command which is covered below.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Advanced Magic Commands:</span> The higher level generic spells ending in the -ara or -aga suffix. Anything stronger counts as a Mega Magic Command covered below.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Ultimate Attack Commands:</span> The most powerful Keyblade Attacks. These are the ones that are usually infused with a powerful spell of some kind, such as Time Splicer, Tornado Strike, and such. Another common trait of these commands was their tendency to take up two command slots in the games.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Ultimate Magic Commands:</span> The most powerful magic spells. These range from elemental spells like Firaga Burst and Ice Barrage, to pure light spells like Faith, or even Dark variations of magic such as Dark Firaga. Like the Mega Attack Commands, these had a tendency to take up two slots on the Command Deck, which is how you'll know they are Mega level commands.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Shotlocks:</span> These are generally Multi-Target attacks that combine magic and skill to unleash deadly signature techniques. Ranging from fire elemental missiles like Flame Salvo or high speed rushes like Absolute Zero and Shadow Rush, these attacks are powerful enough to warrant being in a category of their own, and are not easily learned or mastered.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Command Style:</span> On occasion, some Keyblade Wielders have been known to tap into their inner potential for short bursts of increased power. The exact nature of these bursts depends on the techniques and spells the Wielder uses most frequently. The exact trigger is unknown, but Yen Sid theorizes that it has a close tie to the Wielder's emotional state. To put it in Meta terms, these were short bursts in Birth by Sleep that served a similar function to Sora's Drive Forms. They are mostly elemental themed. You can find more information about them and a list of canon Command Styles <a href=""http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Command_Style"">here</a>.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Summons</span> will be handled slightly differently. Rather than learning them as any other ability, they will function as the Charms from Kingdom Hearts 2 which, like in the game they originated in, are items to be carried around and (by that logic) are usable by anyone who's carrying them.</li></ul>

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Usually very free-spirited, acting informal around others and often forgetting to address his superiors properly. That's not to say he's disrespectful, quite the opposite in fact, as he does look up to and respect those of higher rank. His main problem is having a tendency to forget to use proper etiquette is all. He's always eager to train or spar, refusing to let any opportunity to prove himself slip by. That could also be considered his weakness as well, as his overall eagerness to prove himself can and has gotten him into trouble on occasion. Beyond that, though, he's a good kid at heart and can be obedient when the situation gets serious.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Unlike many apprentices, who live with their families in the main town of the Land of Departure, Rei actually lives in Master Yen Sid's tower. This is because, unlike the Master's other pupils, Rei doesn't actually have a family that he's aware of. For as long as he remembers, it was the Master who took care of him, helped him learn to walk, and all in all acted as the boy's father when he would otherwise have had none. This created a rather close bond between Rei and Yen Sid, though it's not without its annoyances, as Rei developed a history of speaking out against the Master more than others, and also feeling like he was being coddled compared to the other apprentices despite Yen Sid's insistence that that wasn't the case.

So that was Rei's life for the most part. Living in a wizard's tower, raised by one of the last remaining survivors of the War of Souls, who also became his Keyblade Master on top of that. And while Rei is usually happy enough to accept that, he sometimes can't shake the feeling that there's something more, or like something is missing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Yurei is a very calm individual, who can easily make friends with almost everyone in the world. However there are two things that are able to piss him off, mistaking him for a woman and threatening the security his companions and/or friends. However being calm doesn't mean he doesn't know how to be scary, with a simple icy smile is he is able to terrify even the bravest of the warriors, that would probably be due to the shock. He also speaks about matters like death, suicide, self harming or torture in a very natural way.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>Yurei is a traveler, surviving with a pocket of munny on his pocket and his cooking abilities to grant him food(DUUH!) and some extra munny for his necessities. He came from a perfect family, a caring mom, a nice dad and two relying older brothers, however...he never really achieved anything by himself, his brothers were vastly superior to him in anything. What did he do? He left home to expand his horizons and get new skills, that said travel began when he was 16 years old.

He doesn't recall how he achieved his keyblade, he could bring it forth ever since he was 12, but he really never saw any use to it, that was until he reached the Lands of Departure and met other keyblade wielders like him! He decided then to stop his journey for a while and train, like this he could serve for a greater purpose. He managed to make some good friends with his easy going personality, and is said to be a very skilled magic user and a good tactician.

On one hand, the Styles are meant to coincide with the type of abilities you commonly use. On the other hand, their actual use in the RP will mostly be just be for dramatic effect (ie going into a Style-change as a result of character development and the like).

So yeah, a mix of those two methods. I mean, it wouldn't make much sense for a person using mostly Fire spells to suddenly go Diamond Dust, right?</div>"

A rather girlish looking man, Jinsei is painfully aware of how feminine he can appear sometimes, so much in fact that he recoils at the very mention of him being girly. His slender body only adds to this dislike of his, though his lean and cut muscles are a small boost to his pride. He stands at a height of 5'8"" with dark brown hair and crimson eyes, leaving many to believe that he has, in some form, delved into Darkness.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Jinsei means Life, and while that term is greatly unappreciated, it would seem that the name has instilled a tremendous love for all life in the lad. A bit playful and all around reckless, the adventure loving youth is greatly influenced by the history and struggles of the Keyblade Wielders before him. His devotion to the forgotten art is unrivaled, as he goes beyond the duty to correct what's wrong. His fiery spirit is often his undoing but more often than not, its the light in his heart that guides him.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The child of a Magician under the orders of Yen Sid and a traveling vagabond, Jinsei has always been around the mystic arts and paranormal of worlds. In the Land of the Departure, he was known as a troublemaker who got into physical confrontations over the respect of the Keyblade Wielders. His mother who worked with Yen Sid was often reprimanding him. 

Over the years, Yen Sid saw something inside the boy and though it lingered on both Pride and Devotion, he was adamant about grasping him for the light. His devotion to the Keyblade was immense, often leading him to dark paths. However, he overcame this with sheer sentiment and light, hoping to never face the darkness again.

Personality: Franky is a boy who truly values freedom, one who really doesn't do well when he believes that he's becoming a slave to someone else's will. That said, he's not necessarily opposed to staying in one place, or following some sort of structure set in place by someone else. He make's a clear distinction between something that was forced on him (a cage) and something he agreed to or chose (a nest). While he is very familiar with high society etiquette, he also can't stand it. As a result, he is a very casual, touchy feely kind of guy 
 
History: Cutty Flam was born to an influential family, one with quite a bit of money. You'd think that growing up loaded would make for an awesome childhood...well you'd be wrong. Since there was no one else his age that his parents deemed 'fit' to be with him, Cutty grew up very alone. Despite being their only child, his parents rarely had any time for him. In fact, it was only when they dragged him off to parties that they spent the most time with him. Despite the fact that they were his parents, they always felt like strangers to him. Not helping was that he even sometimes forgot what they looked like.

One day, when seven year old Cutty was really miserable, he decided to wander outside of his family's estate. As he had never caused any sort of problems in the past, Cutty wasn't being watched, so he was able to get out without any real trouble. Once out in the streets, he quickly realized that his clothes would give away his family's status. He was able to find a decent looking <a href=""http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101207041240/disney/images/f/fe/Kingdom_Hearts_-_Organization_XIII_Cloak.png"">cloak</a> that had been thrown away in an ally. While it was too big for him, it did it's job of hiding his clothes. Now blending in with the people round him, he soon came across a group of kids his age. Seeing his cloak, they all assumed that he was from a poor family, since it was far to big for him. When he told the other kids his name, they all laughed, since they thought it sounded stupid. The oldest looking one then said that his new name was Franky.

Over the course of a year, Franky would continue to sneak out and play with his friends. While he never had any trouble getting out, he did find it kind of depressing that no one ever noticed that he was gone. However one day, one of his family's servants found him outside with the other children. Bringing him home, she informed his parents about it at once. As punishment, Franky was confined to his room for a full week. When they finally let him out, they had him dressed up in nice clothes and brought him to a fancy restaurant. This confused Franky greatly, even more when he saw another family sit at their table, a mother, father, and daughter about his age. However things soon became quite clear to him; they were arranging a marriage. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. Franky couldn't stand these two strangers controlling his life anymore, so he ran. Out of the restaurant and into the streets. While his family sent out a search party, it was a Keyblade Master who found him first. He offered to bring young Franky to the castle so that he could be trained to use a Keyblade, something that Franky jumped to accept. Once at the castle, in order to differentiate 'Cutty Flam' from 'Franky' he let his hair grow out. To his surprise, he found that it spiked up completely naturally.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Although being in training since her youth, Tremere never went through the phase in her life where she branched out and opened up to people. She is a kind, caring person, but she is also reserved and shy. She doesn't go out of her way to make conversation. She is friendly with all of her fellow apprentices, and differential to her mentors, but makes little effort to deepen her relationships. She is unerringly loyal to her cause and her team but there's a lack of connection between her and the people around her.She a smart girl, and has shown to have a sense of humor, but has shown to be prone to bouts of sadness bordering on depression. She has a fear of fire.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> 
Tremere Wilder was born to a lower class family in a big city on the Land of Departure. Her family struggled to get by, but they were close and loved each other dearly. Aside herself and her parents, Trem had two older brothers that protected her on the streets and from the monsters in her closet. Her life, although not easy, was warm and nurturing up until the age of seven. One night while she was staying with a friend for a sleepover, her house burned down and trapped her whole family inside, killing them and leaving the girl an orphan.

She jumped around a few different foster homes and other transient placements until she landed in a prestigious boarding school thanks to her maturity and intelligence. She was only enrolled for a short time, however, after the school took a field trip to a museum that praised the Keyblade Society. While she was there, she met one of the masters of the academy, and eventually he brought her to the castle for training.

One moment he may seem calm, the next he has a blade at an enemy's throat. Hansha is more or less a blank slate. He is not emotionless by any means, but he is more or less a person who can assume any mental state at any time. If he needs to be calm and wise he shall, but if he needs to flip a mental switch and start crying the next. He is the world's greatest actor when it comes to hiding his true self and putting on masks. 

Because of this it is hard to tell what he is thinking. He is not insane, but more or less on the edge of insanity is what he could be described as. One way to always elicit a smile or smirk from him though is a fight, and a good one. If the opponent is strong that is when he begins to show his more true colors. A savage beast, like a wolf, always desiring to tear out the throats of the strong with its fangs.</div></div>

Personality: She is extremely laid back and carefree rarely taking anything seriously. While she is generally nice and approachable she actually has very little trust in people. She generally needs to have absolute trust in someone to consider them a friend but will make exceptions. She spends a lot of time training and polishing her skills. She also judges a person by their actions not by the power they wield. She hates those who disregarde the feelings of others.
History: She was born into a low class family with many money problems. As a result she was abused and harassed by both of her parents. She spent much of her time away from home with the few friends she had away from home. She often got into trouble around the city which just frustrated her parents more. Her life continued like this making her susceptible to darkness. Eventually her parents were fed up and sent her off to Yen Sid making her his problem when she was 12. Instead of sending her off somewhere he decided to train her and help her keep the darkness in check. Though she was often out and about she never missed any training. She was a quick learner picking up combat especially quickly. Over the years her parents have tried to have a better relationship but she ignored them for the most part however.

Marvel and Star Wars are not options. Disney does technically own them, but I'd rather not include their convoluted storylines into KH's already convoluted continuity. Main problem with them is those are entire universes as opposed to just a single world like everything else generally is.

And yeah, as much I like Lilo Stitch, we can't use that world because of timeline reasons.

Anyway, I won't reveal any of the extra worlds (stuff that isn't actually Disney) but as far as the actual Disney stuff is concerned:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Enchanted Forest:</span> Since the classic Disney movies aren't an option, I thought using their Once Upon A Time counterparts would be a decent way to compensate. Admit it, a Boss encounter against Rumplestiltskin would be pretty darn amazing.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Treasure Planet:</span> Um, why hasn't this been done yet? A space-faring adventure included in a series that includes Space travel seems like it would be a no-brainer, but apparently Square would rather us go back to Olympus for the umpteenth time to compete in the umpteenth tournament in a row.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Atlantis:</span> This one, along with Treasure Planet, would make for some visually stunning environments to explore.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Camelot:</span> Sooooo, Merlin's been in the games since KH1, why have we not done a Sword in the Stone world again?</li></ul></div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed145b"">Personality:</font></span> WIP
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed145b"">History:</font></span> The youngest child and only daughter to the knighted 'Noble House of Dragonius,' Sera was inescapably exposed to a life of traditionally masculine standards of chivalry. As the only child of her birth parents she was molded into the likeness of the son never born. She grew amid her extended family upon the family's estate accompanied by many distant relations, the majority of whom were male, a fact that motivated her to pursue knighthood in accordance to her parents' wishes. 

As soon as she was old enough to stand upon her feet she was being trained as a pious warrior; when her young hands could grasp a sword, one was placed in her hand. She proved to be of considerable potential in all aspects of combat. Whether it was her conditioning or her aptitude with fists and weaponry, she gained the commend of her House as rising talent as soon as her preteens. Her day of triumph in this infancy of her training came at age thirteen, when she dueled her older cousin, then age fifteen, to a draw. 

It was only days after the victory over her cousin that she found herself summoning a Keyblade to her command. The instance caused a ripple among the House of Dragonius. The family had once seen many Keybearers amid its members; this hadn't happened in at least two generations though. This made Sera the first member of her House in nearly a century to wield a Keyblade. Her summoning of one such fabled weapon became known within the family as ""the Great Revival;"" fittingly so, as she came to the knowledge that her Keyblade was properly named ""Revival."" 

With a Keyblade in her possession it was only a matter of time before Sera was discovered by Master Yen Sid. His call to her to train under his instruction was one that no one needed to consider a second time over. From the very day of Yen Sid's beckoning, Sera was his student. Her identity within Yen Sid's school of Keybearers was quick to develop, her high preference to close-quarters combat viciously asserted methods in melee earning her some unique reputation among her peers. So adamant was her discipline, and so hard-hitting was her style that others came to call her such names as ""scrappy."" 

Nearly five years later she was faced with the greatest challenge of her training: The Mark of Mastery.

He met Noboru, who was a childhood friend of his shortly after arriving, and soon after he met Kami. Eventually the three went to the Warakuma Amusement Park, and after Noboru separated, Kami and Rui were drawn into the House of Mirrors.<br/><br/>After a series of strange events, they enter the Mirror World for the first time, and summon their Personas with the help of Kazuki, who happened to be there at the time. They were led out and informed of the Mirror World and the events that have taken place around it.<br/><br/>Shortly after discovering this, Noboru was taken into the Mirror World involuntarily. With the help of Kazuki and Megumi, Kami and Rui find the dungeon Noboru was in, and rescue him. Shortly after these events, Noboru was now part of the party.<br/><br/>In the following week, Matthew Harvester was taken, and police involvement resumed on the mass abductions originating from a year ago. Noboru, Rui and Kami responded quickly and went into the Mirror World to rescue him, also adding him to the party at the end of it. <br/><br/>With Golden Week near way Leiko Hamada was next, and just as quickly the party of four rescued her with the assistance of Riku. From then on, Kami formed the Investigation side, while Rui took care of the Dungeon side.<br/><br/>Shortly afterward, Chiaki Nettu was taken, and the team put together a rescue effort that resulted in a success. Meanwhile, Kami's investigation was showing up little results, as kidnappings so far seemed to be random, so no pattern was discernible.<br/><br/>Not long before midterms, Akane Hanazawa was taken, and the party put together a team to rescue her. The rescue was a success, leading to Akane joining the party. What followed after was a double kidnapping however, where Sato and Kotori were captured.<br/><br/>In the following week the team went to both dungeons and rescued both Sato and Kotori, subsequently the two joined the party as well.<br/><br/>The next week, Ayano and Kami had met up at the shopping center, and after a few events that had transpired, Ayano was captured, and immediately the next day Kami brought everyone together to rescue Ayano. After a difficult dungeon, it was found that Ayano had a more unique power as a Persona user, after she had been rescued.<br/><br/>Ayano's powers were put to the test during an emergency roughly a week later, when Alexei pursued cultist members as they kidnapped his sister, forcing his way into the mirror world. With Ayano's powers the party pinpointed their position and started a rescue mission for both Alexei and his sister Elena.<br/><br/>It was a success, with Alexei joining the team shortly afterwards, although with little time for rest, two more were taken the next week. Those two were Sieghardt, a member of the Drama club, and Ryan, a timid member of the Manga club.<br/><br/>Rui and Kazuki led two separate parties to rescue them in the coming weekend, though Rui's party run was smooth and Ryan was rescued without much incident, Kazuki did not have a much better time, and ended up requiring assistance, to which Rui and his party after rescuing Ryan, reinforced in the effort to rescue Seighardt. It was a resounding success, and the two were rescued safely.<br/><br/>After some investigation by Kami, he managed to find an unsettling truth after pinpointing the cult behind the attacks. The Junsei Sekai Tensei, or Perfect World Resurrection, was an old cult that has been around for awhile. There was one problem though, and that it's leader has gone completely MIA, and his wife died one year ago, despite the cult members passing mentions in a police interrogation.<br/><br/>Fast forward a week later, the Star Drop Café was attacked, and Mako, Shizuka, and Masahide were abducted by members the cult the party was pursuing. Aiko was injured, and Noboru sat this out to watch over him while everyone else successfully rescued the abductees.<br/><br/>Following this event, Jun Himura was abducted by the cult, and a Katsuro Takuma was caught in the crossfire, as well as many others. After a struggle from Jun Himura, it resulted in multiple of the abductors to be thrown into the mirror world as well. This resulted in strange knight enemies found within the dungeons, which were actually the people who were accidentally thrown into the mirror world.<br/><br/>After a rescue requiring two parties to go through different routes in the dungeon, everyone was rescued successfully. Though that has been resolved, tensions among Yakuza, authorities, combined with the presence of the Junsei Sekai Tensei cult, has made things uncomfortable for a few people.<br/><br/>That aside, summer break has begun but not two days into it, an incident has occurred in the Mirror World. Before they could investigate, Zeke, the hawk, guides everyone through to a new area called Seto, a giant lake and sea. Immediately they detect someone inside of it, much like the dungeons before, however upon reaching it, it's much smaller, but the threat to the person trapped here is all the same.<br/><br/>Rui takes a party in to rescue Samuru, while Kami takes another party to investigate Seto's immediate area. After a battle against Samuru's shadow, he awakens to his Persona and joins the team shortly after, while Kami's group sets their first foot into Seto's open areas, which starts as Japanese village and goes on into the fields.<br/><br/>Throughout the week everyone in varying parties explores this new area and progresses through it. Though considering this is Summer Break, Tadao offered everyone to take a trip to the beach for the weekend, which everyone accepted.</div></div><br/><br/><a href=""https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TO3w81l5dafy7Mt5SQvAZ81-JhcVdmOg-4pWzBX0fcY/edit"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">The Velvet Room - Challenges and Services</a><br/><br/><a href=""https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LyEstk_cO7dRc1kkPPfaT5d-obgLT8-3CAPIE1Ij2dY/edit"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Challenge Rules and System</a><br/><br/><a href=""https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rNuzrOLaFpNTYfxw3OzdgjSY_qG_g7VHUqXJN2UjUIA/edit"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Character Moves and Skills</a><br/><br/><a href=""https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BwsNBYJOVX-7US46OuPtjKfC7pGVog7ntoYYB9Ps4r0/edit"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Collected Cards</a><br/><br/><a href=""https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rNuzrOLaFpNTYfxw3OzdgjSY_qG_g7VHUqXJN2UjUIA/edit"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Player Status</a></div>"

He is a tolerating person, and very rarely angers, surprisingly able to hold conversations but is generally of very few words. He chooses to stay positive in almost every circumstance but will default to being a realist if the time calls for it. He has a good sense of consequences that result from actions, but while good, his judgement is still far from perfect.<br/><br/>He's basically a fairly nice and quiet guy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>:<br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Drawing</li><li>Minor Swordsmanship</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: <br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Rui was born in Warakuma Town, though moved out to Tokyo due to parents and work early in his childhood. His school life has been rather standard, parents praise him when he does well and he suffers otherwise. The other kids don't bother him too much and he even hangs out with some of them from time to time, but despite blending with many crowds, and learning different things as well as doing a variety of activities, he's never quite stood out. He's okay with that though, because he finds self validation in the little things he enjoys, whether it be his hobbies drawing, or his favourite shows and appreciation of swords.<br/><br/>He will be moving back to his home town Warakuma for High School, while his parents have also moved for work related matters. The timing was perfect for the beginning of a new school term, so they figured why not enroll him there.

She rarely speaks if not spoken to directly - and even when she does, she only does so in a soft voice. She isn't one to put herself forward and, in fact, actually prefers to keep her distance from others, making her a rather timid person. She is, however, rather diligent; always doing her utmost at any given task. Given her weak constitution, she dislikes most physical activities and, in fact, often sits out during P.E. She also seems quite conscious of people's eyes on her and quickly feels uncomfortable when that is the case.<br/><br/>Given these traits, Kotori is not exactly the most sociable person - though that doesn't really seem to bother her. Most of her free time she spends studying or helping her mother around the family flowerstore in the Warakuma Shopping District.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Equipment/Skills:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span> - Japanese Umbrella: A bamboo-and-paper umbrella.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Armour</span> - School Uniform: The standard female Warakuma Highschool Uniform.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Accessory</span> - Small Locket: A small heart-shaped pendant worn around the neck; kept in a pocket while at school.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span> - Does well in her studies. Knows a large number of flowers by name. Quite capable at Flower Arrangement. Is strongly near-sighted. Low stamina.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Background:</span> Kotori is the only child of the Shirohane familiy, who have lived in Warakuma for generations and are known for their flower shop in the Warakuma Shopping District - the shop is on the ground floor while the family home is on the floor above. Unfortunately, Kotori's father - a kind man who was never seen without a smile on his face - passed away in a car accident three years ago, leaving her mother to look after both the store and the child. Fortunately, Kotori was by no means a troublemaker - though after her father's death, she did become a lot more quiet and reserved. Though saddened by her husband's passing, Kotori's mother remains a cheerful person at heart and does her best to keep both the store going and watch over her daughter.<br/><br/>Apart from these things, Kotori's childhood had few other noteable events. She hasn't joined any clubs at Warakuma Highschool or actually made any real friends due to her nature, never being one to draw much attention. Furthermore, she isn't much of an athlete; quickly getting out of breath and has sat out during P.E. a number of times due to this already - though she doesn't feel all too bothered by this.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Persona:</span> <a href=""http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Kikuri-Hime"" rel=""nofollow"">Kikuri-Hime</a><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Appearance:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/dcWGhC0.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Kikuri-Hime</a><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Abilities:</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Dia</span> - Light Single-Target HP Recovery<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Patra</span> - Cure Single-Target Fear/Rage/Confusion ailment<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Zio</span> - Light Single-Target Electricity Damage<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Strong against Electricity</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weak against Physical</span></div></div></div>"

His overall appearance tends to be disheveled, as he finds himself with little time to put much effort into looking tidy. His rusty-red hair is always a scraggly mess, and he prefers wearing an unzipped track jacket over a plain t-shirt with matching track pants. <br/>Even when he has to dress up more formally, such as wearing his uniform to school, he keeps it as loose and casual as possible, unbuttoning and unzipping everything he can. Despite his aversion to professionalism and general stuffy-ness in his clothing, he has a fondness for plain, dark-colored ties, and always wears one to school. Loosely, of course.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Justice<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span><br/>Toma is a stoic young man, who tends to gives off a 'cool older brother' kind of vibe - he strives to be approachable, reliable, and someone who others look up to. He's fairly social and is often willing to help out any who ask, even at his own expense. <br/><br/>Though he is hyper-competitive, he's never a sore-loser unless he believes cheating or dishonesty was involved in the event. He does his absolute best to get the highest marks possible, and he loves playing any sport, with soccer being the one he's played most. When he isn't studying or playing around with balls, he spends his time playing competitive multi-player games. <br/><br/>Seeing as he has very little free time, his gaming cuts into his sleep every night. It is very rare that he gets more than three hours of shut-eye a day, and his face shows his lack of sleep. Despite this, he somehow finds enough energy everyday to function properly. Usually.<br/><br/>When he sees others upset or caught in a bad situation, he often takes action to try to fix the problem without knowing all the facts and details. This sometimes causes him to come off as condescending and presumptuous, and at worst as a downright insensitive jerk. <br/><br/>He takes extreme issue with bullying and those who just generally try to make life harder for others. These instances are the only time he shows much emotion, and more often than not, it's anger. He feels compelled to protect those who can't protect themselves, but his rage can cause him to take it too far - there have been a few times in his past where he has gotten violent.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span> <br/>His stamina and overall strength is very good, letting him be physically active for hours on end. He's tried various martial arts during his life, and still tries to find some time for Judo. Fights with grapples, kicks, punches, knees, and elbows. His equipment consists of elbow-length gauntlets that double as knuckle dusters and a pair of combat knives.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span><br/>Toma's history revolves almost exclusively around his younger brother, Taiki. Their ages were barely a year apart, meaning they were very close growing up. Toma was the more outgoing and independent one of the two, while his brother was far quieter and reclusive. <br/><br/>It seemed as though, from the moment Taiki entered school, he was a target for bullying. Taiki would tell Toma about it, and, more than once, Toma punched one of the kids Taiki had told him about. Eventually, kids in the school were afraid enough of Toma that they stopped picking on Taiki. But they also stopped interacting with Taiki at all, making it impossible for the shy boy to make any friends. <br/><br/>When Toma left the school for Middle school, the bullying against Taiki came back with a vengeance. Knowing it was his fault for having dealt with it so terribly, Toma tried his best to comfort his brother, telling him it would get better next year, when the boy would start Middle School.<br/><br/>Taiki's lackluster marks meant he wasn't able to attend the same school as Toma. At first, Toma wasn't too worried about not being able to protect his brother, as he had seen that his 'methods' hadn't really worked anyways. On top of that, Taiki would be surrounded by completely new kids, who would be able to see him for the nice guy that he was.<br/><br/>Those thoughts proved to be too optimistic, as more stories about Taiki being bullied came up. Toma couldn't understand why. Why was Taiki always the one targeted? Why did others seem to only want to make his life miserable? The more he thought about the unfairness of it all, the angrier he got. He became a bitter person, who only showed kindness to his brother. Toma had few friends because of his attitude, but that fact was something he didn't often thought about, as he was too focused on Taiki.<br/><br/>But then Toma started high school, his life got much busier, and his brother's situation started to seem normal. Mundane. After having spent so much time and energy reassuring and trying to help his brother to no avail, he began to care less, telling himself that the problem would solve itself eventually. He still spent time talking with Taiki, but the talks became fewer and fewer.<br/><br/>The two drifted apart over the next three years, and Taiki spiraled further into depression, eventually committing suicide at the age of 16.<br/><br/>Toma was devastated, and he receded from the world. A few months passed, and during this time Toma became the person he is now. After getting over the shock and numbness he felt from losing his best friend, he decided he would do everything in his power to help and protect those that needed it. <br/><br/>Eventually, he and his parents moved to Warakuma, to leave behind the bad memories.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Cottus<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <br/><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://oi59.tinypic.com/9bajw3.jpg""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span><br/>Garu<br/>Rakukaja</div></div></div><br/><br/>And two characters that will probably never matter.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Arata Kimura"" type=""button"">Arata Kimura [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Kimura Arata<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Height:</span> 175cm<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <br/><img src=""http://oi58.tinypic.com/e0pd7a.jpg""/></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span><br/>Arata is a pretty happy-go-lucky guy overall. He loves meeting new people and has absolutely no issues making conversation, even with complete strangers. Once he learns a name, he never forgets it or the face it goes with. Despite essentially living and breathing track-and-field, he isn't all too competitive, and would rather make sure that everyone has fun.<br/>When it comes to confrontations, however, he seems to lack a backbone. He's a complete push-over, and will always back down when someone tells him off or calls him out. His likable attitude keeps these sort of situations to a minimum, but when they do happen, Arata gets flustered and overwhelmed quickly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span><br/>He's a solid all-around athlete, and is extremely approachable and sociable.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tsuruko Yamada"" type=""button"">Tsuruko Yamada [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Yamada Tsuruko<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16 (first year)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Height:</span> 162 cm<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <br/><img src=""http://oi61.tinypic.com/wswgoz.jpg""/></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span><br/>Tsuruko is a fairly popular person in her class. Her strange mix of airy politeness, disheveled-yet-attractive appearance, and book smarts draws people to her. Despite her large amount of friends, she has a tendency to stay quiet, being content with simply listening to her friends conversing. When she does speak, however, they always give her their full attention.<br/>From the outside, she looks like someone who's completely put-together and has a bright future. She's surrounded by friends, she does well in school and sports, and the only flaw she seems to have -- exceptional clumsiness -- tends to be viewed as endearing rather than as a real flaw.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span><br/>While clumsy most of time, she is very well coordinated when doing physical activity, meaning she has at least a little natural talent at nearly every sport. She does exceptionally well in school, as tests are something she can prepare for, but is a bit slower when it comes to thinking on her feet.</div></div><br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtJcLWeY114"" rel=""nofollow"">Toma's Theme</a><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=906QwGwN9pQ"" rel=""nofollow"">Dungeon Theme</a><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByMRee8rxwo"" rel=""nofollow"">Boss Theme</a></div>"

History: Matthew grew up as a common farmer on a common farm somewhere in the country of Australia with his normal 3 member family, well everyone was normal except for Matt, he was always the odd one out as he found out early on in life. why was he the odd one out? He lived like everyone else and worked like everyone else from a young age and he thought he wasn’t much different, he didn’t look any different, he was always cheerful but that wasn’t very special but what was special showed when he would go to the only school in the area which was pretty small. Matt showed great academic abilities from a young age which the small school could not handle after a while, he was in need of proper education somewhere else where he could become more than just a farmer.

When Matt was 14 he had already passed through everything he could learn from the school and his father decided to have a chat with Matt. He asked Matt if he wanted to be a farmer like his father and his father before him or if he wanted to see more of the world, Matt instantly said he wanted to see more. His father showed a huge grin when he answered and told him he had good news.
Ever since Matt was young his father thought he wanted his son to be something more than a farmer so he decided to put money aside every year to pay towards tuition fees when the time came, and that time had come.

Matt said goodbye to his parents, to his farm, to his town and vowed everyone he would do so well the small country town would be put on the maps. Where was he heading? to a prestigious boarding high school which his father barely had enough money saved to send him to. When he finally got to the big city and found his way to the school (eventually) he was overwhelmed by the size of everything, so overwhelmed it was obvious he was a country bumpkin to everyone. He started high school with a bright attitude that never wavered, heck it probably only ever got bigger over time. Maybe some of the reason was that most thought he was a fish out of water in the beginning but he soon showed that after taking a few classes he was well on the track of outsmarting them, he would have too if he didn’t fall for Japanese culture in Foreign studies. Heck most his free time ended up going to studying about Japan… unless he had an assignment due of course.

As his high school life went on his always happy attitude rubbed off on people around him and he was never seen alone, or was there never anyone with a frown near him. It seemed as if everyone had forgotten they once thought him as a country bumpkin. As he spent his days having fun with his friends and studying he started to think about the future, what was he going to do? he was soon coming up to his last year, and as he started thinking a perfect opportunity opened up, an exchange program with a school in Japan was going to start which Matt instantly signed up for and took the test…. which he would’ve easily passed as he did study the language.

It was decided Matt would be the one to go and he called his parents to tell them he was going to Japan for his last year, they were both proud of their son and hoped he would see the world.

and Thus he ended in Japan for his last high school year….. 

Personality: 
always bright and with a smile on his face, he has always been the type that attracted people around him with his bright cheery attitude, though at times he has been known to be a bit blunt and headstrong as he isn’t one to back down. He is loved by both people and animals.
 

Inventory: A bigger than average knife.... how it got through customs nobody knows

vampire hunter
Slovenia. A shaman who transformed into a white-coated animal to fight the Kudlak. In Croatian and Slovenian lore, a person born with a caul was destined to become either a Kudlak or a Kresnik. A person so destined to become a Kudlak would already begin a career of evil while still alive - his soul would leave his body at night in animal form and fly through the air to attack people or to magically do other harm to the community he lived in. When he died, he became an undead vampire who was then an even greater threat to the community. But if a person born with a caul became a Kresnik, he became a champion of the community. While he lived, his soul left his body in animal form at night to fight against both living and undead Kudlaks.
Where the kresnik was the representative of goodness and light, the kudlak symbolized evil and darkness

Deity:
Kresnik is the son of the creator deity, ruler of heaven. He lives in a fantastical country, sometimes called the ""Land of the Rising Sun"", ""Eastern Land"", or the ""Ninth Country"", and rules on the""world mountain"", which is frequently described as being golden, crystal, or glass. He has been associated with fire, the summers solstice and storms. In legends of him as a human, he is a great king skilled with magic, but who interests himself in farming.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></span> 17

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span></span> Hermit

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></span> A rather gloomy and brooding person by nature, Ayano doesn't really talk much and prefers it stays that way. When she's outside-a thing she does so very rarely-you'll often see her staring at the ground when walking and she usually has a troubled or discontent look on her face. One thing she keeps on demanding is for people to leave her alone, as she prefers to lock herself up in her own room. On the Internet however, her personality becomes a complete inverse of what she is, adopting an alias known as <span class=""bb-i"">Yanary</span> who stalks image boards and art-sharing sites, she herself runs a blog that is mostly filled with video game content. As <span class=""bb-i"">Yanary</span>, she masquerades as someone who is very cheerful, upbeat and overall a nice person who welcomes others with an open heart.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span></span> Ayano is rather efficient in the world of computers, she has some basic understanding of hacking and coding but don't expect her to plant or create a virus somewhere. 

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span></span> Ayano grew up in a simple home, she had the basics a family had: A mother, a father and a sibling or two. She had friends, was excelling in school and overall everything was fine.

Things changed during middle school though, as Ayano faced the cruelty of bullying. She was practically the center of it all, they'd talk behind her back and would even threaten to kill her if she didn't do something that appealed to them. Eventually, she took it all to heart and considered herself to be the worst person to ever live off the face of the Earth. She didn't fight back, it'd only get worse. She tried telling a teacher, it didn't do much. She told her parents, it only lasted a day.

As time went on, she became bitter and thought that her only real friends were the ones she made online. They listened to every problem she had and thought she was a good friend. She retreated into the Internet whenever she had a bad day and would just forget everything that happened.

Nowadays she's heard some freaky rumor about teenagers suddenly changing personalities and how its connected to this 'Mirror World' she heard about...

Age: 16 (Starting Second Year at Warakuma High)

Appearance: <a href=""https://www.wallpaperup.com/uploads/wallpapers/2014/07/01/383289/56c5da3e6e70ff1c9d8f670a852964e8.jpg"">High School Drama Queen</a>

Leiko's sense of style radiates a potent aura of sophistication and rebellion. Eschewing her school jacket and ribbon, she chooses to wear an expensive, imported apricot coloured Angora sweater, along with the standard Warakuma skirt, and black stockings that reach just to her skirt's hem. She also wears specially customed rosewater perfume, the fragrance of which is noted by many who meet her for the first time. Her auburn hair is naturally wavy, but she tames it with straightening products every morning before school. Her use of makeup, whilst minimal, is effective in giving off an air of class.
Her wardrobe is mostly influenced by European fashion, and with the sage advice of her fashionista friend Saya.

Arcana: Empress

Personality: Brash and outspoken, Leiko has a powerful aura that few people can deny in her presence. For this reason, she is often found to be the ringleader of her group of friends, and with her confidence, is also the self-proclaimed star of the Drama Club. She is either sweet, or very sharp and scathing depending on who she speaks to, and due to her snobby nature, many classmates are either afraid of her or try desperately to fall in her good graces. However, with power comes a price, as Leiko sometimes doubts that the people close to her really care about her at all...

Equipment/Skills: Wooden Spear (A prop from drama club, later upgrades to real spears.)

Background: Born and raised in a fairly affluent family, Leiko had always treated other people like they were different from her. Beneath her, in a sense. For this reason, she was met with hostility from her classmates, and for a long time, Leiko was isolated from her peers. However, in her middle school years, Leiko finally snapped when she was confronted with a particularly vicious school bully, and rather than suffer in silence, she fought back, to the surprise of many. This caused her popularity to soar, and soon enough, Leiko had gained a group of friends and the reverence of the school, which then carried her forward into High School. Now, she is considered one of the most popular girls in school, but only accredited through her wealth, and her intimidating demeanour and reputation. Deep down, she suspects that her 'friends' aren't really her friends at all, but she chooses not to dwell on it, instead focusing on her studies and her acting hobbies. She is also currently engaged via her parent's wishes, and she is set to marry when Leiko graduates from High School.
She has heard about the new rumours circulating around school, but pays them no mind, and merely thinks its a case of delinquents playing too many violent video games.

Since the start of The True Self, Leiko has shown her enthusiasm and commitment in her role as Drama Club President, going as far as leading the recruitment campaign by herself, with some relative success from the male demographic. She has a strong work ethic in regards to the club, but shows doubt in her leadership abilities, particularly whilst under the scrutiny of her fellow clubmates, such as an arrogant male named Masatomo Owada. 

Bonus fact: She absolutely despises the name Leiko, and insists on being addressed as Hamada by everyone, with the exception of her close family.

Age: 16

Appearance: <a href=""http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh64/ArtistNo1/Fan%20Pictures/2c579dd5.jpg"">""Stop frowning so much, Hama-chan!""</a> 

Saya is considerably tall for a girl, standing at 5”9, with long legs that are the envy of many fellow female classmates. Both her eyes and hair are an amethyst colour, and she has a creamy smooth skin complexion that she maintains with a strict beauty regime. She is highly fashionable and as such, always wears the latest brands, and is considered as something of a trendsetter amongst her friends. She sports the standard Warakuma uniform at school, and wears a silver necklace with matching silver loop earrings. 

Arcana: N/A

Personality: Saya is upbeat, cheerful, and quite playful in her mannerisms, always finding a good excuse to make light of a situation even in the darkest times. She is a very active and sporty person, vastly preferring to keep herself active over being stuck in a room with musty books. She is easily flustered by members of the opposite sex, and even more so by figures of authority, but she tries not to show it.
She is notorious for being the only girl in school to be able to tease Leiko Hamada and get away with it. 

Equipment/Skills: Saya is surprisingly quite a good cook, having learned from her mother who owns one of the oldest-standing restaurants in Warakuma. She is also athletic and rather gifted over quite a few sports. Her academics are rather lacking however... 

Background: Born and bred in one of the most traditional families in Warakuma, Saya has never known life outside her hometown, nor does she care to. She is expected to work at her family's restaurant, and finally take over when her parents retire, but Saya has other plans, a fact which she makes known to her own flesh and blood, as well as the people who know her well enough. Still undecided in her path in life, she chooses to take it easy and see where her whimsy takes her.
Growing up, Saya was quite the insecure girl, which made her an easy target for bullying. When she entered middle school, she was particularly targeted by a gang of girls who made it their mission to make her life a living hell. She became increasingly depressed and socially withdrawn, leading to the point where she almost gave up on life altogether.
However, after one certain incident with her tormentor, she inadvertently got pushed into Leiko Hamada, a notoriously aloof and socially awkward rich girl. To the surprise of herself, and the growing audience around them, Leiko confronted the bully, which culminated in the girl infamously fighting them off.

Since this incident, Saya has stuck to Leiko like glue, inwardly desiring to pay her back for what she perceived as saving her life that day. At Leiko's side, she was no longer picked on or hated, which gave her the confidence to allow her true personality to shine through. Leiko is entirely unaware of the depths of Saya's admiration however, barely remembering that Saya was there at all doing the confrontation, but Saya chooses not to be bothered by it.

Since the events of The True Self began, Saya has shown an interest in Archery, going as far as joining the club despite her lack of knowledge or talent in the sport. It has also been established that she has feelings for the Club President Rokoru Ishiara, and is determined to win his heart, no matter what.</div></div>

figure, Sato is approximately 176 cm tall and around 70 kg, with an average skin tone and a fine complexion. His hair and eyes are both a deep brown color.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Sato’s the type of person who wears formal clothing to semi-formal outings. He always speaks in a respectful yet casual manner, even to underclassmen and close friends, and he is much more of a leader than a follower, creating ample friction when there's a power imbalance in a group. Sato also rarely shows very much emotion when not necessary in social interactions, but he's really a passionate young man. Though he tries not to show it he's very conscious about other people and is generally concerned with others. He often tries to keep an image of perfection/superiority but it obviously sometimes fails <span class=""bb-s"">a lot</span>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Equipment:</span> Sato rarely chose his own hobbies or skills to develop, and he was instead forced into extracurricular activities by his parents. Some of the skills he gained from participating in them were: playing the piano, painting, drama, and baseball. A little bit into his second year, Sato joined the archery club (which he is fairly good at) and started practicing with the other members after school occasionally.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Weapon:</span></span> Practice Yumi<br/>A bow Sato bought for practicing his archery skills with.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Armor:</span></span> Male School Uniform<br/>The typical uniform, but with a sophisticated flare added.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Accessory:</span></span> Old Wristwatch<br/>It doesn’t look fancy, but it's a nice touch.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> A third-year student in class 3-3 born into a well-off family that moved to Warakuma for his mother’s work. Born in Tokyo, and as the first (and only) child, he lived a very controlled upbringing, to the extent where everything he did fit on a tight schedule. All his classes, all his activities, and all of his hobbies were chosen for him from the very start on a path to excellence. However, his father abandoned them for a ""hotter woman"" later on. His mother had to find a job and raise her son alone. While she found a proper occupation, they were required to move to a different city for it, leaving Sato in a new school with a lot less guidance from his parents-- or rather, parent.<br/><br/>Sato very well could have embraced this new freedom, trying to find out ""who he is"" and what not. His life had been a series of things he participated in solely to bolster his skills and social status up to that point, and neither young Sato nor his mother wanted to change that. For the latter half of middle school, and the first year of high school, he was focused only on his studies and the clubs he was in, but even when he was there, the people there and his ""friends"" were little more than tools to help him improve and succeed. Early in his second year of highschool, his mother told him that they would have to move yet again for her job, but this time to the rural town of Warakuma. There, recently, Sato's found comfort in the friends he's made in the archery club, the first club he joined after moving. After a falling out with them, Sato's trying his best to reconnect with Rokurou. His best subject lies in mathematics.<br/><br/>In the middle of the school year, Sato was a victim of a serial kidnapping case perpetrated by a local cult. Thrown into the mirror world, he was soon saved from his shadow world by a band of fellow highschoolers with the Persona ability. He managed to accept the parts of himself he tried to hide, and as a result joined the team once he acquired the persona ability. Through the investigation, he met Mako, and the two are currently dating.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""PERSONA: Chronos"" type=""button"">PERSONA: Chronos [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Chronos"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Chronos</a></span><br/><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/QaEy0p4.png]""/><br/>(<span class=""bb-i"">Art by <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/10242"">Sho Minazuki</a></span>)<br/>As the personification of time, Chronos represents the many aspects of age and progress.

He stands at 182 cm and weighs about 85 kg. He's not lean, but most wouldn't say he's not soft and exists in a limbo between those two adjectives. Most of the time he wears practical and ordinary clothes if not his school uniform, since he tends to wear his uniform all day on school days. He spikes his hair into a short faux hawk, and typically has a stern expression as a default face. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> While he looks like a mature young man, Rokurou's body language and actions show how he's still a highschool student with much to learn about the world and the reasons why everything is why it is. Conceited, cold, and stubborn, he still looks out for others more than himself and leads people exceptionally well. Rokurou acts as a bit of a role-model for Sato despite being less than a year older, mostly because he's significantly better in archery and Sato admires his people skills. Rokurou is also a big fan of Western rock music and typically imports CDs, playing them at practice.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Equipment:</span> His initiative and leadership skills made him a prime candidate for becoming the president of the WHAC, even when he was a first-year.

Rokurou is the current president of the Warakuma High Archery Club. While he does exceptional as a leader for the club, his actual grades in class are generally rather poor, and mediocre at best. Known as Class 3-2's biggest dunce (both literally and figuratively), some say that their class's averages drop drastically simply due to the presence of Rokurou's marks, but most disregard it as a silly rumor to make fun of him. Hopefully. His best subject is PE.</div></div></div>"

Age: 18 

Appearence: <a href=""http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/2760dbc8856d36582f2f084abdb9fc5c/http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af101/elizard23/police_122574_750x1179theAnimeGallerycom-1.jpg"">Living up to the family name?</a> 
Ignore the most of the police crap on him. He only has a normal blue shirt, with a black undershirt, a neck tie, and pants. This is usually what he is wearing when he isn't wearing a school uniform.

Arcana: Emperor 

Personality: A calm and collected individual who is more known for his family's rep. He decided to try to follow what he thought he loved to do the most - Detective Work. He is an avid fan of Murder Mystery novels, and often wants to jabber about them as much as possible. Thankfully he keeps that swelling feeling inside of him, and remains serious, even when talking with others. 

Although he is a calm and collected indivual, he can often sometimes become... Rather panicky when pressured. This is made worse when his father expects him to live up to his family's name, and its now causing him to rethink his options. Despite his nervousness, he has a rather big heart, and is willing to talk it out with almost anyone.

Equipment/Skills: He has basic police training thanks to his dad, and is one of the more athletic students in the school. He also has had some Kendo training.

Equipment - Stun Baton. 

Background: Kami was born to a long line of detectives, officers, you name it, and was expected to live up to his family's name. Although he finds this to be a lot of pressure, he enjoyed solving the crimes in the books his father bought, gradually growing his interest in the ""family business."" He went through his whole life, preparing for the moment he would become and investigator. He made a few friends, but he sometimes contacts them to see how they're doing. The boy has recently began helping his father with one of his newest cases though. 

He was recently beckoned by his father to help him out with his newest case - the teenagers and some random cult. He thought it would be easy, he thought it would eventually blow over... But after actually doing some investigating, he is feeling the pressure on his back pushing him down. He doesn't want to disgrace his family name, but the case isn't going anywhere. The panic of this case could be getting to him, as he is begining to have strange dreams each night. He wonders what it could all mean with the blue room, the weird old dude, and that hot chick he saw every night in his dreams.

He has also recently turned 18 (in the roleplay). 

Persona: Zeus 

Appearance: <a href=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs16/f/2007/134/0/7/Zeus_by_TaekwondoNJ.jpg"">Should of made his Persona look like He-Man for the lolz :P</a> 

Abilities: 

Zio: Deal a small amount of electricity damage to an enemy. 

Arm Chopper: Deal a small amount of physical damage to an enemy, with a chance of causing fear.

She enjoys dressing in the 'Gothic Lolita' fashion, as she believes it helps her to stand out from her fellow peers. She is caring, to those she trusts, which is only a few selected people. Due to her popularity she has developed a sense of pride, believing in herself more often. Despite all of this, Chiaki has mild anger issues, to the extent where she 'pops off' unleashing a wave of anger upon the person or people that angered her.<br/><br/>Skills &amp; Equipment: Being a model, she is a beautiful girl with many charming qualities and some stunning charisma that just draws people to her.

She believed she had the perfect life. Her mother was of Italian decent, her father was Japanese. She was born in the Tochigi Prefecture. Growing up there she had been introduced to several traditional, non-traditional and foreign practices. Her family only consisted of Her, Mother and Father. Although they were a small family, they succeeded in earning several amounts of income to support themselves. Her Father became a well known 'Waste Management' manager. Her mother took her education as far as possible, leading her into the supreme court where she defends people of all kinds. Poor Chiaki was left on her own, learning to take care of herself as her parents were never around during the day. Once Chiaki had reached her teens, she demanded that her parents pay more attention to her or she would call the authorities alerting them of how she has been mistreated all these years. Her parents agreed and vowed to spend more time with her. <br/><br/>Within the next year her parents became more distant, they would delve into deep arguments, fight all night and day. Chiaki was always the peace maker, she felt responsible, she believed it was her fault that they were fighting. <br/>Once Chiaki had turned fourteen her parents then went through a few more 'rough patches' as they called them, then swiftly divorced and separated the following month. She would bounce from Mother to Father, Father to Mother. She had become sick of it, the life she had once knew was gone, she once again told her parents her feelings, this only angered them, they both agreed that if Chiaki hated them so much, she should go live somewhere else.<br/><br/>Chiaki was horrified, she ran away from the life she had once had, she had contacted a social service, they had her moved from Tochigi to to live with her Grandmother at Tatsumi Port Island. She had become accustomed to life there, she was staying with her Grandmother who had applied her for a modeling job for a magazine, against her will. She became very popular with the 'Goth, Pop and Gothic Lolita' Crowd. Her agent began to insist that she take her popularity to the next step and become a full fledged Idol.. After some convincing from her Grandmother, she agreed to it and was ready to set out on her journey as an up coming Idol. Unfortunately, her life changed once again, as her Grandmother had passed away. She was devastated, the life she had finally become used to, the life that she had created, one of happiness, was shattered. <br/><br/>She had turned fifteen and was attending private schooling but the social services believed it would be better for her if she was moved to live with her Aunt and Uncle in Warakuma, and attend the nearby school, interact with other students on a daily basis, so they enrolled her into the High School.<br/>Having to turn back on her life again, she gave up being an Idol before she could even start, although there is still evidence of her being a model around, you don't even need to look hard enough, after all she is rather popular, if you're into idols that is.</div></div></div>"

He is quite strong however, his tightly coiled muscles a legacy of a lifetime working on the family farm.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age</span><br/>16<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span><br/>Male<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana</span><br/>The Sun<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span><br/>Despite his effeminate features, Youhei is a man's man through and through. He rarely drops the positive, if sarcastic attitude and can be relied on to drop a perfect deadpan snark with just the right timing. While his strangely pessimistic brand of optimism comes from the heart, Youhei is also beset by a deep-seated sense of inferiority due to his rural upbringing. He secretly believes that all city folk think of him as rustic and backward, leading to trust issues in school life and a sense of insecurity that drives him to constantly use sarcasm and self-deprecating humour as a shield. In part because of this insecurity and part because of his easygoing nature, Youhei is terrible at dealing with arguments or malicious verbal assaults; he can defend himself in a fair argument with little than a mild adrenaline rush, but if someone lays into him, the boy will crumble. Despite this, he deeply respects and cares for everyone around him, even and perhaps especially those who openly mock his past; his respect for those who are completely honest with themselves and others runs deep.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapon - </span> No proper weapon as yet, but he is in the habit of carrying an old screwdriver in his school bag, just in case<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Armour - </span> Warakuma Gakuen Uniform<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Accessory - </span> Steel Toe-capped Boots<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Skills - </span> Youhei's only useful talent is physical labour and the stamina to keep it up long term. Aside from that he is uniquely skilled at fixing up old mechanical systems; his knowledge is a decade out of date though, so he has no hope fixing anything modern.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span><br/>The Kawasaki family owns one of the largest freehold farming chains in Hokkaido, with dozens of individual farms bearing the family crest. The clan has many branch families, one of which managed one of the smaller freehold in the far north, away from the trappings of modern Japan. Youhei's large family of nine had been solely responsible for several dozen acres of arable land dating back since before the war, without a single member of the clan ever moving from the area. As such, they had developed a certain... unique culture after the better part of a century's cultural isolation. Aside from taking pride in a dialect and accent so thick you could stew it, the Kawasakis hardy cared for the goings-on in the outside world, bar the occasional interesting snippet the delivery drivers and ancient radio told them.<br/><br/>It was therefore something of a shock to his parents when Youhei presented them with his plans to attend high school near Tokyo. While he sold it to them as an investment in a future manager for the business, Youhei was simply trying to escape the thankless monotony of rural life. With support from his grandparents he eventually convinced them to allow him, much to the chagrin of his elder siblings who would have balked at the chance. As the first Kawasaki to attend a non-branch school in living history, the pressure to succeed was intense, a new sensation to the erstwhile farm boy. Luckily for him the first year was relatively easy as he stayed with extended family, receiving a little too much help from their eldest daughter. Grateful yet uncomfortable living with girls his own age, he quickly worked out a way to rent his own run-down flat near the school and by the start of the second school year was well established in his new castle. If there is one thing that he has learned since moving to Warakuma, it is that he knows nothing of the world. Whatever half-baked plans he may have had before, seeing the world in all its glory has left Youhei overwhelmed and unsure of where to go in life.<br/><br/>But dealing with the folk at school was a... different experience. His first year was mired in miscommunication and isolation, mostly on his part as he struggled to understand his fellow student's Tokyo standard dialect. Luckily the second was shaping up well; a new class, a fresh start. That said, even some time into the new school year he had yet to make any real friends.

When he wanted something he got it, and he was always taken care of mostly by the maids though. His life was truly an easy one. Only hard part would be his parents lack of attention, but this was easily substituted by his favorite maid who would always take him to all kinds of plays as a child. This is where his love for them came from and blossomed. So of course after watching his first he started watching them regularly, even practiced to participate in them.<br/><br/>He would transform this love for performance into quite the art, becoming quite proficient in acting as he grew up. So when he and his family moved to Warakuma from Tokyo he began to experience less of the plays he enjoyed seeing. Yet luckily for him the school he was attending did have a drama club, so while he might not have been able to witness more professionally done plays, he didn’t mind as much as long as he got to partake in the art.<br/><br/>Persona: Saturnus<br/>Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/vE5SBUi.png""/><br/>Abilities: <br/>Agilao- Deal a moderate amount of fire damage.<br/>Mighty Swing- Deal one moderate phys damage to one foe.<br/>Maukukaja- Increase one ally’s hit/evasion for three turns(I’d assume this would be three post for turns.)<br/>Heat Wave- Deals medium Phys damage to all foes.<br/>Diarama - Moderately restores 1 ally's HP<br/>Tarukaja - Increases 1 ally's Attack for 3 turns.

No matter if the situation seems hopeless she never backs away and willingly throws herself in danger if its to help another. After finally obtaining freedom in Warakuma, her actions are seen as crazy or a bit eccentric but is generally well-liked amongst the students, especially the girls, some of which see her as their one true 'Prince' for how she would 'swoop' in and save people from unruly situations and managing to keep her cool is stressful situations. Though, in normal situations, she'd occasionally let her true feelings show and drop her facade.<br/><br/>While she enjoys fighting, she'll rarely instigate a fight, choosing instead to come in the defense of others. She is quite the Otaku, despite being strictly watched, she used to sneak in mangas behind her fathers back (with the help of her brother) and watching whatever she could. She'll do whatever it takes to live life the way she wants it and won't let others dictate her life for her.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""> <li>Mangaka</li><li>Brawling</li><li>Affinity with swords, especially the Katana</li></ul><br/><br/>Background: <br/>Hailing from the Ikebukuro area, Akane is the daughter of the Saito Group's head, Akihiko Saito, a crime boss. While she was pampered and spoiled, in a way, like you'd expect of a daughter of a crime boss or anyone who had it big, she never got it easy despite being the youngest, she has an older brother who is 7 years older. From the moment she turned 6 her father took it upon himself to 'toughen' her up by always putting her through rigorous training, regardless of whether she wanted it or not, with good intentions of course (not matter how cruel it seemed at the time). Like his father and his father's before him, it was tradition to have the 'family' involved in the family's line of work but that wasn't the only reason. Knowing the target that'll most likely be on her head once she got older, because of him, he wanted Akane to be able to defend herself in case anything were to happen to her. <br/><br/>Of course, She didn't see it that way and, naturally, slowly started developing an intense hate for him. In her junior high years, she held high marks, and was quite popular among the other kids in the school, as she was always surrounded by a 'flock' of people. Though 'popular', she drew the scorn of many who believed she was stuck-up, selfish, a thug and a matter of labels, mainly stemming for the fact of who her father was, despite showing otherwise. Regardless of how she was seen, she'd go out of her way to help others whenever she could, whether it was stopping thugs, giving others food or helping with small things. Though, no matter her intent, people would often run in haste from her after words or react harshly to her help but she resolved to help anyways despite this.<br/><br/>By the time it was her third year of junior high, her father, despite the training, tried to interfere more in her life, trying to stop her actions and get her to focus more on the 'family' and control her actions. Having enough, without his knowledge, she applied to various schools a good distance away from Ikebukuro hoping to get a fresh start. It didn't take long before she was found out and, of course, her father was furious, intending to enroll her in an elite school and groom her, with the intention to marry her off. However, as she neared her 15th birthday, those 'plans' came to a screeching halt when things went seriously wrong in a 'rescue' of one of her friends. <br/><br/>Before things could get worse, her Akito intervened and whisked her away to an lesser known location. Relocated to Warakuma, in an apartment building owned by her older brother, she was now living alone, and to dissociate her from the Saito Group, she adopted her mothers Maiden name of 'Hanazawa' while also dying her hair a purplish black.<br/><br/>Persona: Setanta<br/><br/>Appearance:<br/><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/80pu9H8.png""/><br/><br/>Cú Chulainn or known in his childhood as 'Sétanta' is an Irish Demi-God, the offspring of a mortal woman, Deichtine, the younger sister of King Conchobar mac Nessa, and the deity, Lugh, the god who governed over the sun and a member of the Danann divine family in Celtic Mythology. Deichtine, the daughter of a druid, Conchobar's father, and Maga, the widow of Ross the Red, disappeared in the Land of the Young without marrying anyone. There, she bore Sétanta , the child of the sun god. He took up the name Cú Chulainn after accidentally killing the guard dog protecting the house of master blacksmith Culann. After which he uttered, """"Does this dog have children? If he does, could you allow me to take care of them? I will raise them to be guard dogs just as strong as their father. Until then, I will be your guard dog."" <br/><br/>It was prophesied that ""this child will live as a hero"" at a young age by the Chief Druid, Cathbad. Cathbad was powerful, with his divinations being strong enough to ""determine the future"" rather than simply ""see the future."" Not knowing how to handle the situation, he decided that he would tell it to only those who would take up arms on that day. The divination was bad enough that none of them attempted to go through the rites of warriorhood, though Cú Chulainn was fishing while leaning against a hazel tree due to his disinterest. He went through the rites of warriorhood on that same day, and received the prophecy that said ""in exchange for glorious deeds of valor, his life would be short.""

Having looked up to his mother, for her strength of will and determination, Akira grew fascinated watching his mother shoot every morning. He thought her form and the motion of it all was beautiful and grew fond the the arrow getting released from the bow and hitting the target. With every days passing, he became determined to learn Archery and after awhile managed to persuade his mother to teach him. As the years followed, his talent began to shine when he placed 1st in a regional tournament in his first year of middle school and followed that up with a 4th place finish in the nationals. <br/><br/>While he was initially disappointed for not getting higher, having got a little ahead of himself because of his placing in the regionals, he changed his mind when he was scolded (albeit lightly) by his mother and assured that placing 3rd in the nationals was a big deal and he should be proud. From that point on to the end of his middle school career, he placed either 1st or 2nd in every competition he competed in. When it came time to pick which High school for him to go to, despite having received scholarships from schools with prominent archery programs, he elected instead to go to the local high school, warakuma high, where his friends and fellow archery club mates decided to go. However, when he got into high school, he started having problems with a few upperclassmen in the Archery club. Putting up with it for awhile, it reached its boiling point mid-way through the school year when they got into a heated argument which turned into an ugly bare fisted brawl that result in him getting kicked from the club. And in turn started giving him a bad reputation within the school as a 'troublemaker' or a 'delinquent'.<br/><br/>Aoi Kirigakure<br/><br/><img src=""http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs44/f/2009/141/f/2/Bleach___Kukaku_Shiba_by_Ninjatic.jpg""/></div></div></div>"

No matter the odds and no matter the enemies, he finds a way to live another day. For a life steeped in self-defense at an early age, he is still quite astute a student. Always near the top with his grades, it is after-school that he involves himself in a struggle of survival. All the while the failing health of his mother and a young sister compounding his struggle manifold. He is trained to look after himself and those he loves and no matter the odds or the sacrifices he'll see this through.<br/><br/>Background: Being a Gaijin in a strangely xenophobic environment isn't much good for a child. And when you are naturally as close to a bear things get ugly quickly. Born to a mixed couple in the high streets of Tokyo, Alexei hadn't hoped to get a life he got. After his father got killed in a building accident, Alexei all of 7 years was left alone to look after an ailing mother suffering from added dose of depression and a young sister he had to protect. The fact that he excelled in a strict academic system being an outsider was somewhat a cause of displeasure amongst his so called friends. As he hadn't paid heed to budding envy that sowly transformed to hate about the time the family fortune slowly trickled out of the coffers to look after his family.<br/><br/>So young Alexei, took various oddjobs to earn what little he could and help in anyway he can. He took over his mother's trade account, a gift from his foresighted father and at an early age began to study the share-market as closely he can. He knew whatever jobs he did will only barely scrape them through, it was the money from transactions in the shares that will be the major chunk. He also took upon the cleaning duties of the house and his mother since they couldn't afford help from outside.<br/><br/>Then came the decision of shifting to a cheaper locale with an accessible hospital, His sister's good education and development of hobbies and other such things. All the while, the fires that stoked envy in his contemporaries grew stronger. Then an incident happened. Heavily labored as he was, he now had to fight for his skin and his family's. As his sister was the mode to get a decent hit on him. Her Karate instructor, a brother of his classmate tried to molest her and though like many victims she tried to hide it, Alexei sniffed it out.<br/><br/>Heartbreak was followed by a bout of insane wrath as he flew into his dojo and beat the man into a bloody pulp, making more enemies on the way. This meant that it was judicious to leave town and thus, the Dragunovs came to Warakuma. Learning from his experience, he trains himself in jiujitsu at the local dojo, juggles gym, works in a construction company as part-time, manages the account of his mother and is the nanny to his sister along with being subjected to strange dreams and a long nosed Russian. <br/><br/>Equipment/Skills: pack of Luckies, keys to bike, wrist wraps and a zippo. <br/><br/>Persona: Prometheus - Prometheus was one of the Titans to side with Zeus and his siblings in the great war against the Titans, the original occupiers of Mount Olympus. When Zeus won the war and banished Prometheus' brethren to Tartarus for eternity, Prometheus and his brother Epimethius were given the task of populating the earth with creations. Epimetheus, who created the beasts of the world, gave his creations all of the gifts that could be bestowed, leaving Prometheus with nothing to give to Humanity. To compensate, Prometheus stole fire from Mount Olympus, incurring Zeus' wrath. However, it wasn't until he taught mankind how to trick the gods that he was given his ultimate punishment. Chained to a rock for all time, his liver was eaten every day by a great eagle sent by Zeus. Immortal, he could never die and his liver would regrow. And so he suffered, until the Greek hero Herakles freed him from his torment during the course of his famous Twelve Labors. <br/><br/>Appearance: <img src=""http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs28/f/2008/135/0/1/Angra_mainyu_by_GENZOMAN.jpg""/><br/><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/2cw0lHL.png""/><br/>Abilities: Agi, Makatranda</div></div><br/><br/>Non-Persona Users<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name="" Sagat Shrichapan"" type=""button""> Sagat Shrichapan [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Name: Sagat Shrichapan<br/>Age: 17<br/>Build: 6'1""/ 89kgs<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Appearance: <img src=""http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/019/1/6/tirawit_koukin_by_rokudo123456789-d37kun6.jpg""/><br/><br/>Backstory: The tall dark guy who was mostly avoided of the aura he gave off.

Warakuma was a silent pocket in the interior of Japan and though the people didn't give a oppressive xenophobic feeling like in his birthplace, many people still avoided him. With no underground scene to keep himself busy he took up the charge of server in the restaurant his father was planning of overtaking. <br/><br/>Trained in Muay Boran from a young age, he is a dangerous and belligerent fighter in the ring, his personality changing a lot within the four ropes.

It was the perfect household, with loving parents that spoiled their two humble but naive children. Keiko was loved by her classmates and teachers for how hard she does everything in and out of school. But she spends most of her free time with her brother who was smart and was an honored student.

To her, nothing lasts. Everything is always changing, things are realized too late, and it's hard to keep anything ""stable"". But...it's fine. She's convinced that she doesn't need people anymore at this point. She does fine without them.  <br/><br/>She's not painfully boastful, but she isn't afraid to point out her superiority when she can. She isn't loud, but she doesn't think most people capable of what they set out to do if they don't look the part and she'll express it on the second it's mentioned. She's the person that won't take warnings for granted and will go head-first, sense last into a problem. Brute force can be her go-to method as she prides her strength, but on those rare, light occasions, she might actually be able to wisen up and change tactics if things go on long enough. <br/><br/>...Or she'll just keep bashing the problem with a (metaphorical/literal) hammer until things <span class=""bb-i"">smooth over.</span> But she can be coerced into decent conversation -- she likes hearing about struggles! No, not in that sadistic way. In that way of how people try to claw their way from the lowest of hope and fight until their heart gives up for some impossible goal- okay this is sounding sadistic. <br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<br/>- Weapon: An oversized hammer. Probably about as big as she is. How she hides it? ...Don't question it. <br/>- Armor: The school uniform on top, and gauntlets on her arms and legs to keep her braced when she swings that menacing aforementioned weapon. Also has shoes with extra ""stick"", so she won't slip easily. <br/>- Skills: Quite strong for her size, so she can wield her hammer easier. She can shrug off minor wounds and (very few) other wounds through pure force of mind that ""they don't matter"". Might have a slight adrenaline addiction. <br/><br/>Background: <br/>""Please take her back in.""<br/><br/>Those words again. <br/><br/>Time and time again. From the age of three as her parents died on an airplane ride back home, Eika Munashii stayed in that orphanage. It was like a broken record. Hell. She wanted to tell the woman to stop talking and just get out. This same old story was just a migraine at this point. <br/><br/>Adopted out. Returned like a product with a defect. Why the hell did she need to bother with them?<br/><br/>Decent family. Nice people. Usually a caring older couple or one unable to have kids. <br/><br/>Tossed back to that orphanage. Because there was always something ""wrong"" with her. <br/><br/>That was fine. She didn't need them. She only needed herself. <br/><br/>Yes, her childhood was a bunch of ins and outs from one household to another. Nobody seemed to be able to keep caring for her after three months or more, resulting in more than a boxful of adoption papers. All were good families...she just didn't fit. So she stayed in that orphanage, but it got...tiring. Having to go back to the same place like a lost puppy, laughed at by the ones that knew her every time she came back...She wanted her own place. So...Eika got a job. If she wanted to get out, she could do it on her own, and she would prove it. And she worked harder than she should to earn enough money. As she grew, she argued down her employers to give her the increase in money she needed, and she took on more hours at night because she was...simply better at doing everyone's job. <br/><br/>And look. That worked. <br/><br/>Ages 12-15, she focused on how much an apartment would cost instead of making friends. There was no point in relying on them when she had other things to do. From a clueless kid trying to get out of the place she'd come to dread, she learned to support herself by her own desire. Instead of having to be dumped on another family, she made herself better. And it felt...better. Being able to be strong enough to do the manual labor of her job for extra cash, or learning something new that nobody else seemed to know well or at all. She rebuilt herself up from being some hopeless kid stuck waiting for someone to come and take her home. <br/><br/>Age 16, with some help from the kind people running the orphanage, she managed to buy a small but affordable apartment in the town of Warakuma, her birthplace. The name lies within the owner of the orphanage, but she's still good to live in it. She didn't know many other people her age that actually worked to earn their home. And it made her develop a slight complex. Being able to say, ""YEP. I did this. Think you can? Probably not!"" Which was true. Not all kids started at a job at 12 and worked their way up and kept at it until they had a home. She had her accomplishments and she didn't need anyone else to work up to them.  That's the way it worked and that's how she got used to it. She did was she was better at than everyone else, and it got her what she needed. <br/><br/>Apartment. Check. <br/><br/>Official documentation. Check. <br/><br/>Obvious capacity to be independent? Check. <br/><br/>Now. For attending high school without getting man-handling half of the school populace. <br/><br/>...Pending. <br/><br/>Persona: Shiva, The Destroyer<br/>Appearance: <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/aJPuznT.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Hey Sexy.</a><br/>Abilities:<br/>Brutal Slash<br/>Heatwave<br/>Bufu<br/>Dekaja</div></div>"

Everyone's idol just arrived!""'</span></span></div><br/><br/>Utaha is actually a pretty tall girl in comparison to most girls, and even guys, standing at 1.90 meters. Her build is actually quite curvy. Her orange hair reaches her back and is almost always kept straight, but she knows how to arrange it in lots of ways, for when she becomes a real idol. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Kashiwagi Utaha<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Sun<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Utaha is extremely lively, way too lively for the good of anyone in her vicinity. It is hard to see her stay put, and she likes jumping around as much as possible, even with her big body. She likes singing and dancing a lot too. Without regards of personal space whatsoever or the slightest hint of what the hell is the so-called delicacy she keeps hearing so much about, Utaha can be quite intrusive upon personal matters, even though she always has the best interests of people in mind, even though she can be quite the nuisance too. She always gives it her all to achieve her dream of becoming an idol, and always gives her 200% at everything, and also expecting that others will follow her example. She also does not accept any kind of slacker, and will force them into working, no matter what it takes. <br/><br/>An airhead and a klutz by nature, Utaha is someone who trips over nothing, forgets things rather quickly, can't read the mood or take a hint, and her fingers seem to be made out of butter, everything slipping through them most of the times. Unable to ever differentiate left from right, there are few actual things she is good at, such as dancing, and also, quite few things that can upset her, being almost always able to keep her cool no matter the circumstances. Still, there are a lot of things that can upset the ever happy Utaha, such as commenting over her height or telling her that her dream to become an idol is a fool's errand. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Weapon:</span> Unsuited for a fighting style that is less than graceful, due to her dancing skills and clumsy nature, Utaha would actually prefer to make use of a spear or lance when the time comes, so she would be able to put it to good use with her big body.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Armor:</span> Not much, the usual school uniform and maybe something underneath it, but nothing slowing her legs down. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Skills:</span> Dancing, singing. Due to an elective she was practically forced to take during middle school, she also knows Judo, if at least the basics. Her grades aren't that bad either, and she's able to memorize lyrics and whatnot in a matter of seconds.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Born to a family of overachievers, Utaha spent most of her life being the black sheep in a family full of people that did not know what it meant to fail, at anything at all, and given how she is, and has always been, Utaha was actually looked down upon a lot. Her brother and sister always thought of her as being worthless and also called her names related to her height and build, hence building to her build complex. Her father barely paid her any attention, and not to say anything about her mother, who knew she was too much of a goody two shoes to actually tell anyone what she was doing behind her family's back. Utaha pretty much just had to put up with it.<br/><br/>Her life, well, it could not be called a living hell, she did not want to call it that, since many others had it even worse than her, but it wasn't something pretty. There was a single thing that kept her on the game, and it was the love she had for the idol Kiruri Izumi. Her songs and dances got right to her heart, and even so, it wasn't the songs themselves that made her hopeful. It was the fact that anyone could become that, even her. It was not long until Izumi released a song that actually filled Utaha with the courage she needed. That day, she was able to finally tell her dad about what her mom was doing, not only wringling every penny out of him, but also cheating on him. A divorce ensued, of course, and she ended up living with her father. He was no longer able of treating Utaha as he did, even though he still spent a lot of time in his work, he now calls regularly to check on her. <br/><br/>Utaha now feels happy about what she did and now aims to become an idol just like Kiruri Izumi, someone that makes and sings songs that reach people's hearts and fills them with emotions, that's what she wants to do the most. Still, she finds obstacles at every turn. Not one agency has hired her in all the time she has been attending idol auditions because of her height and build not fitting the image they search for in an idol. While it puts her down at times, she still gives it her best always and keeps up a positive outlook at everything. She will not let anyone put her down or ridicule her dream of becoming an idol that will reach everyone's hearts!<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Terpsichore, nicknamed Terpsi-chan by Utaha. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Persona Appearance"" type=""button"">Persona Appearance [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/081/c/2/cm__monster_girl_solita_by_kachima-d5yvbr7.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Agi, Dia, Tarukaja.</div>"

Like most children coming from a wealthy family, Shizuka was left alone most of the time, with the exception of servants, by her parents in their mansion with no one to play or interact with. Not necessarily neglected, but she didn't mind either way as she was an obedient child and she understood that both her parents were flooded with work which needed to be taken care of.<br/><br/>This is why she sought out a hobby to preoccupy herself with. Flipping through the channels as a curious child, she abruptly stopped when an animated female character on the screen magically transforms, with all the colorful lights and sparkles, and shouts, ""In the name of the moon, I will punish you!"" Eyes widened in amazement, Shizuka could not take her gaze away from the television screen while her thoughts were of how exciting whatever this was and how she wanted to become like them, hues of hair she's never seen before, costumes of different variety and color, and the dynamic personalities each one had.<br/><br/>Years had passed since then, but her love and excitement for anime never wavered. What remained though was her calm, delicate nature she presented towards her fellow classmates, friends, and parents. Her passion for anime (and now manga) was to not leave the four corners of her room. Shizuka would occasionally show hints of interest when her classmates discussed about them but no one, and she means NO ONE, should ever find out about how ""otaku"" she was.<br/><br/>Keeping all of this within her had limits and before she was about to breakdown, someone on the hallway of the school uttered the word, ""cosplay"". It took quite awhile for her to learn the meaning and to take enough courage to disguise herself in the colorful costumes and hair she once saw years ago, to find people of similar interests without them ever finding out her true self.<br/><br/>With the positive reactions given by the people she has met, Shizuka continued to create more disguises by her own hands, to the point where she landed at her current part time job at the cosplay cafe as Shizu-chan, the persona she presented to the people of the otaku world.</span><br/><br/>Persona: Inari Ōkami<br/><br/>Appearance: <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Inari"" type=""button"">Inari [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center"">Illustrated by: <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/sho-minazuki"" rel=""nofollow"">Sho Minazuki</a><br/><br/><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/4nZPTrN.png""/></div></div></div><br/>Abilities:<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Twin Slash</span> - 2 light Slash attacks.

She was a loner during her middle school years and Michiko decided to change herself in high school.<br/>When in high school, Michiko decided to change her image. Due to her past experience, she avoided the kendo club and decided to join the anime/manga club as a ghost member though she has a tiny bit of interest in them.

The way she carries herself seems to be that of a man, at any rate. The fact that her ""casual"" wear (read: clubbing/picking up girls) wear is a suit doesn't help matters.<br/><br/>She rarely wears anything revealing because of the <a href=""http://www.adisowy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/back-dragon-tattoo--image-simson-tattoo.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">dragon tattoo</a> on her back. It takes up almost the entirety of her back, the only revealing sign that she is indeed, linked to the yakuza.<br/><br/>Arcana: Devil<br/>Personality:<br/><br/>Jun has charisma, and lots of it. She's frank with her opinions and tactful with her words, with a sharp tongue and rapier wit to go along with it. The only problem is that she has no chance to display this aspect of her personality. People are often intimidated by her - if not her reputation then her skill in kendo. It also doesn't help that she's mercilessly shot down every guy who's worked up the courage to confess to her or chucked their love letters straight in the bin in public view.<br/><br/>The hushed whispers behind her back that she's the daughter of a yakuza boss doesn't help either. It's a sore spot for her, especially since she wants nothing to do with that life - even if she's grown up in relative comfort thanks to it. It's her main motivation to do well in school and get a proper job elsewhere. Preferably overseas and far out of the reach of her father.<br/><br/>All of this has given her a reputation as a Frost Queen, and the fact that she does nothing to improve her reputation in this regard gives people the impression that she thinks she's better than them, or that she really enjoys the status of being yakuza. The truth, however, is that anyone who gets too close to her might simply end up being pulled into her world, and that's the last thing she wants for her classmates. The overprotective nature of her father has also meant that anyone he deems to be a dangerous influence on her is immediately removed - either by eviction or less savoury means.<br/><br/>If anyone really got to know her, however, all of that would change. Jun is scary, but only because she inherited her father's protective nature. Anyone she comes to respect and care for will find a steadfast and loyal friend who always has their backs - especially in a fight.<br/><br/>She is also scary because of how shamelessly skilled she is at charming women in clubs or (her guilty pleasure) the staff at the maid café she frequents, Kawaii Kohi. She is unrestrained when in party mode despite being a minor. The only thing she refrains from is drugs, and even then only the hard, addictive stuff. If one offers her some pot, she's more than willing to try it.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<br/>Weapon - A Masamune katana. It technically meant to be on display in her home, but in Jun's words ""There is nothing more pitiful than caged dragon.""<br/>Armour - Depending on whether she has time to change, the female school uniform or her suit.<br/>Accessories - A necklace with a silver dragon coil around a piece of photoluminescent jade that glows in the dark.<br/><br/>Kendo - This goes without saying, but her father insisted that she learn how to wield a sword since he had no other heirs and wants her to inherit his position. She is trained by a private instructor and though she wants desperately to join the kendo club and actually practice with her peers, she reluctantly admits that if her father got wind one of them landed a blow and injured her, there would be hell to pay.<br/><br/>Aikido - Well, obviously a young girl walking around with a katana is too conspicuous, so Jun was also taught Aikido to defend herself.<br/><br/>Background:<br/><br/>Jun's entire family history could probably be traced to the Yakuza as far as she is concerned, or recalls. Her mother was a hostess who ended up the mistress of her father. For most of her childhood, this wasn't hidden from her, not that it could. Her mother's reputation preceded them everywhere they went. Jun was ostracized by the neighbourhood kids, but they never did anything more than hurl insults. Presumably because their parents were afraid of the consequences.<br/><br/>As long as her father's world left her alone, she was content to assume it didn't exist. When his wife could not bear him any heirs, however, he saw Jun as his only chance left of securing a successor that was directly related to him by blood. So began her years of training in etiquette and kendo, in asserting her authority. She was tasked with running her household's finances with her mother, in preparation for managing territory.<br/><br/>She hated every moment of it. She knew what happened to daughters of yakuza. If her father became indebted to another gang, she would be offered as ""goodwill"". At best, she would be married off to another influential member of the underworld to seal an alliance or merge two families. The only problem was that she wasn't interested in men.<br/><br/>The first time her father got wind of her sleeping with a girl, he was furious. The girl's family suddenly received an eviction notice and had their store burnt down. Though he did not claim responsibility, the warning was clear to Jun - anyone her father deemed to be a disgrace upon the family would be removed. That list included any girl Jun deigned to have a relationship with.<br/><br/>So she moved away, transferred schools and was relocated somewhere nobody knew of her inclinations or what had happened with her previous girlfriend. Her lessons in succession continued, but Jun knew that she would never be free to live her life as long as she was just a daughter of the yakuza.<br/><br/>Persona: Mordred<br/>Appearance:<br/><br/><img src=""http://i74.servimg.com/u/f74/19/05/17/96/10778210.jpg""/><br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>Mudoon<br/>Blade of Fury<br/>Strong against Physical<br/>Rebellion</div></div></div>"

He likes to help, but mainly he likes to feel needed and that he is not the odd one out.

Since kindergarten, he had to spend many hours sitting in front of a book and study so that his parents were satisfied when his report card would come. That was no easy task, for Gen could not simply memorize everything his parents wanted him to. He would get nervous when tests came and he would barely pass, and later he would get scolded for not meeting their expectations. His punishments, then, was to study everything again until he knew it by heart.<br/><br/>Until an accident occurred.<br/><br/>One day after dinner, they were robbed in their own house. Two hooded men forced the door open and seized them, pointing them with guns and ordering them around. Gen was utterly scared, and so were his parents. What was worse was that Gen could not move; the men would yell at him and his parents would beckon him to go where they were, but Gen was so frightened that his body would not react to them. One of the men pointed him with his gun, and pulled the trigger.<br/><br/>Gen did not die from that shot because his father received the bullet instead. His mother cried, and then the man realized what he has done and ran away, his partner carrying everything they had robbed. Gen had the man’s hooded face ingrained in his mind, but he still did not move. His mother hugged him and his father’s corpse lied on the floor before them.<br/><br/>From thereon, Gen could not concentrate at <span class=""bb-i"">all</span>, and his mother did not push him. He had nightmares with the robber’s face, and a gun pointing its muzzle at him.

An excellent student- with grades to match, an excellent study under the kendo club, and has been known to volunteer for community work around the area. However, it’s not enough… Or at least to Masahide. Striving for prefection to the point of nearly tearing himself to pieces, the young boy barely has any time to enjoy his own life. It’s for this very reason that he seems to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders, ‘If only I were better,’ a reoccurring thought in his own head. It’s because of this that people have seen him passed out during lunch hours at school, or seeming shaken and ill fed. But what would you expect? The pursuit of perfection is a long and excruciating process… Though less than fruitful. He’ll never achieve perfection, but he’ll never accept it… In the end though, something has to give. And at this point, it’s looking to be the boy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span><br/><br/>	Uniform: Masahide takes great pride in his school and studies, wearing his uniform fairly consistently. However, it’s not uncommon for him to dress in a rather dark ensemble on off days or when out with friends… If he had any.<br/><br/>	Wakizashi: An heirloom of his family, this masterfully made blade bears a significant importance to his family. It is for this reason that Masahide covets it, training with it hours after school before washing up and heading for whatever activities he has planned.<br/><br/>	Deductive Reasoning: Always the analytical one, if the pieces are laid out before him- odds are he’ll solve whatever the puzzle may be. Though it’ll take a couple failures (of which he’ll hold over his own head), it’s only a matter of time before the solution is in place.<br/><br/>	Zealous: You get Masa to swear to a purpose, nothing will stop him. Even if it’s simply studying up for a test, or squaring off against someone, he won’t back down. The task will definitely take it’s toll, and will ultimately consume him if not achieved, but he’ll be damned if he doesn’t try.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span><br/><br/> 	Born to a wealthy industrial family, Masahide would want for nothing. Whatever his heart desired, his parents allotted him. However, over time- this became dull. What worth were these things? Merely baubles and trinkets of his vanity and greed. It was shortly after that realization that he began to strive to make a name for himself. First, it was cleaning the house while his father was out, then it became excelling at school, and then a physical training regime. Then suddenly, the house wasn’t enough, he’d seek to assist at shelters and shrines, anything he could do to keep himself busy and making a contribution. However, when his father was diagnosed with heart complications and forced to retire, this merely kicked Masahide into overdrive. Now taking up odd jobs to make up for the lack of income (though it wasn’t needed) and going without on pretty much everything, Masa would become an asset to his family. When his father ultimately passed away, many feared the grief would kill the frantic boy. Instead, it had the opposite effect, it mellowed him out. He saw what the years of strain did to his father, so he dialed back his efforts… However, he still spreads himself much too thin. Though he’s trying to accept the fact there are things beyond his control, to this day, Masahide Saji will never stop striving for perfection. Even if it kills him.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span><br/> <br/><span class=""bb-u"">Tyr</span>-<br/><br/>	Known as the Norse god of war, Tyr was considered one of the wisest and most courageous sons of the All-father, Odin. No clearer was this evident then the binding of Fenrir. The mighty wolf was the harbinger of the Ragnarok, or so the gods foresaw, and they attempted to bind the massive wolf. Every time, Fenrir broke free and grew wiser to his own strength. In a final act, the gods had dwarves craft a 'ribbon' that was strong enough to bind the wolf, yet would not openly display this prowess. Having grown wise to their schemes, Fenrir offered to wear the ribbon if one of the god's placed their hand in his mouth. Tyr volunteered. Though he lost a hand in exchange, it kept the wolf from being able to fulfill his purpose. Disaster averted- Tyr continued to retain his mantle, even if it costed him one of his hands.<br/><br/>Appearance:<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Persona(Spoiler)"" type=""button"">Persona(Spoiler) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/SOCfSet.png""/></div></div><br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>Arm Chopper: Deals light Phys Damage to 1 foe and has chance of fear<br/><br/>Rampage: Deals light Phys damage to all foes 1x to 3x<br/><br/>Matarukaja: Increases attack for 3 turns (party)<br/><br/>God’s Hand: Deals Severe Phys damage to 1 foe.</div></div></div>"

Yet at the same time, he is not afraid of fighting to defend himself, or those he calls his friends. It wouldn't hard to see him as the protective type. He noted for never saying anything more than he has to. Partly because he's shy and partly because of the bullying.<br/><br/>Rikimaru is two different people at home and in the public. At home he is an outgoing and loving person. In public he is quite and he does his level best to never show that anything ever bothers him.<br/><br/>Rikimaru looks intimidating and older than he is and he knows it. While at heart he is a big softy. That won't keep from using that intimidation to his advantage. If only that would have worked where used to live.<br/>Iff there is one thing he does care about more than training and his family. Its playing the guitar. A product of spending so much time alone when he was younger.<br/><br/>Rikimaru for faults,has a need to do the right thing. Something his parents taught him when he was a small child. Even he wants nothing to do the with situation, Rikimaru will do what he thinks is the right thing, even if it gets him into trouble.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills: <br/><br/>Weapons:<br/>Battle Axe Gutiar.<br/><img src=""http://tylorkranyak.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/battle_axe_guitar_by_monkeybro0-295x300.jpg""/><br/><br/>School uniform.

He borrows greatly from his fathers genetic line in terms if his looks. It was his mother that gave him is his once cheerful disposition and name. His father an American from South Carolina. His mother was born in Japan but was moved to America when she was but a baby. <br/><br/>Born and raised in Okinawa's Kadena Air Base. The American Air Force Base. It wasn't until he was in his teens that he figured out he had been living in two different worlds. An American world on base, and the Japanese world just out side the walls of the base.<br/><br/>Behaviorally he is almost a perfect mesh of his parents. A gruff almost angry exterior the covers a very soft inside. His father's American gruffness and his mothers soft heart. He is much a guy and doesn't make much apologise for it.<br/><br/>When he was a boy, Rikimaru got beaten up for the first time by some bullies. His Father with a mind that this wouldn't happened again, enrolled him martial arts classes. Rikimaru took to them like a duck to water. He was a natural and loved every second of it. As time progressed, the styles became more and more brutal. It wasn't until he came to learn the ways of an art barely known that he truly excelled. ""The dragon of many faces."" A very brutal style that allowed him to fight more than one person at a time.<br/><br/>As he got better the bullies started to leave him alone but they were always there, always looking for a reason or a means to get away with picking on Rikimaru. As a result he never really had many friends. During this lonesome time, he learned to play his fathers old guitar. He picked up pretty quick, it was a comfort that was he better at something other than fighting.<br/><br/>It wasn't until his parents still members of the U.S military were called to Afghanistan. Not wanting to remove their child from highschool and knowing that Afghanistan was no place for child they left Rikimaru in the care of some close friends and neighbors. <br/><br/>The neighbor thing didn't exactly plan out very as a few weeks later Rikimaru was jumped by a gang. It took every bit of them to beat him into submission. Rikimaru saw a poor child being humiliated and what he could to stop them. It was a nasty fight that left him much worse for wear. He was a very good fighter but there is only so much one person can do when the odds are so stacked against you.<br/><br/>It took him awhile to get over what had happened, Still training as much as could but always alone.  He finished the school year at home. He wasn't safe there and he knew it. On the bright side, he had plenty of time to play the guitar and train.<br/><br/>After a while his parents moved him into an apartment above a Ramen Bar that was owned by Rikimaru's aunt and uncle in Warakuma. Most people thought he was crazy or the like for the lack of talking or emoting on public.<br/><br/>but it was still better than everyone giving him those pitiful looks. Those looks hurt more than anything. Still a fresh start in a new place should be perfect for him. For the first time in such a long time he was excited to go to school. <br/><br/>Persona:<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">Helios, The Sun G-d <img src=""http://img11.deviantart.net/5db4/i/2008/122/1/c/sun_god___surya_by_devashard.jpg""/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I am Helios...

Her face is porcelain and without flaw, her lips pink and heart-shaped, and her eyes large and smokey.

Really quiet. He can go entire days without saying a single word out loud and, obviously, this hasnt earned him any friends. This is partially due to shyness and fear of getting hurt, but mostly because he does not understand many of the things that normal people do. He has a completely logical outlook towards any situation, and often has a bad habit of expecting everyone else to act the same way, which can lead to him getting extremely angry and frustrated at everyone around him. <br/><br/>Despite this, he will never run from a fight or confrontation, and will also show absolutely no quarter if someone innocent is being hurt. This can range from a fight with his persona, to a simple attempted mugging. This complex stems from his desire to prevent anything like his...accident, from happening again.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>: As far as weaponry goes, he doesn't carry anything, although he knows basic self defense skills. He is quite unfit though, so don't expect him to beat down much tougher opponents.<br/> He is also very gifted academically, thanks to all the tutors he was taught by in his youth. He is also capable of thinking up complex plans and tactics in a fight, if he needs to. Unfortunately, his dislike for staying out of a fight can lead to him being in the thick of the action, when he would be much better suited on the sidelines making plans and helping the others. <br/>As far as armor goes, he usually wears a school uniform in school and a orange hood out of it, mostly to hide his damaged face. He also quite likes wearing suits, although he hates it when they get dirty. In any outfit, he wears a white patch over his missing eye.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: Katsuro was born to a high up executive of an extremely large property development company in Tokyo. His father divorced his mother shortly after he was born, and, after a while, Katsuro found out why.<br/><br/>His mother was extremely domineering and emotionally abusive, treating her son like a glorified pet, forcing him to dress, act and even speak exactly how she wanted at all times. He grew up with tutors and never knew the company of other children, save only the children of the other company executives, which he met every now and then at gatherings. She wanted him to follow in her footsteps in business and drilled into his head that he needed to be pragmatic with dealing with other people, being careful never to rely on anyone too much and seeing opportunities wherever he could. This, coupled with his education, wealth and (he thought) good looks, caused a feeling of superiority over others.<br/><br/>When he was fourteen, he went with his mother to a building in the middle of construction. Despite his fear of her, he was able to slip away and decided to take a look around. After all, he would have to know about stuff like this. As this happened, a fire broke out on the second floor and the executives nearby were all evacuated. Katsuro didn't notice this until it was too late, and the fire lit a gas tank, causing an explosion that knocked him out.<br/><br/>He woke up two months later in a hospital bed. The explosion and fire had damaged several of his fingers, burned part of his face and most of his torso permanently and, worst of all, a splinter had taken out his left eye. This pushed his already fragile mental state over the edge, and he completely closed himself to the world.<br/><br/>Soon, the truth came out. The company had been losing a great deal of money in bad deals lately and several of the executives had been getting nervous. Therefore, his mother and a few others had paid some criminals to set fire to the building in order to claim insurance. Unfortunately for them, the police began to get suspicious and several of the plotters were arrested. <br/><br/>Katsuro was still in the hospital when this happened, but it couldn't have been more welcome. This news was all he needed to get out of his depression, and he announced that he would be testifying against his mother and the other executives.<br/><br/>After a long and fairly sensational trial, they were sent to prison for twelve years apiece. Katsuro found himself moved between relatives, including his father (whom Katsuro ended their relationship before it even started again by breaking his nose), until, finally, he was taken in by a cousin on his father's side in Warakuma. <br/><br/>___________<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona</span>: Giles Corey<br/>(Seen in the 1953 play ""The Crucible"", based on a real life figure of the same name.)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: <a href=""http://imgur.com/eP1AVtJ"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">http://imgur.com/eP1AVtJ</a><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>:<br/>Ragnarok<br/>Mind Charge<br/>Heat Riser<br/>Debilitate</div></div><br/><br/></div>"

And so he realizes these facts about himself.<br/><br/>That one, he is vulnerable to those who offer him love and friendship, and would gladly do what they say in exchange for those things.

A kind, compassionate boy, Samuru nevertheless came to conflict with his faith when he realized that he was attracted to men as well as women at a young age, but managed to conceal it, and in the end, decided to do his own reading of religious texts and the development of theology through the times. He also read the texts of other religions, as well as books about their historical development. And he realized this; that the most successful Religions can both maintain continuity and yet change. What would have been abborhent in one era became accepted doctrine in another, and the process by which this happened can be tracked.<br/><br/>But seriously, he's Bi, still Christian, and his way of finding a balance between those traits has forced him to think seriously about how said balance can be maintained, and study his history and theology harder in order to realize that life is full of contradictions, and that reconciling contradictions is part of life.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona</span>: Shiro Amakusa<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:<br/><a href=""http://i.imgur.com/QfWHckF.png"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">i.imgur.com/QfWHckF.png</a><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>:<br/>Deathbound - 3 Points<br/>Drain Physical - 3 Points<br/>Dekunda - 2 Points<br/>Medirahan - 4 Points<br/>Rakunda - Recently Gained Thru Skill Card<br/>Kougaon - Recently Gained Thru Skill Card<br/>Shimabara Volley: A barrage of blessed bullets that acts as an AoE attack that inflicts 4x to 8x Light Bless Damage - Custom Skill Card from Challenge</div></div><br/></div>"

He is quite skeptical and tends to worry more than the other Persona user about, albeit sometimes silly, things, but his worries are often very justified and understandable. He is a logical and smart person, often annoyed by the idea of not being able to understand someone or something at all. He tends to be quite serious, but he does joke around occasionally, even bouncing off the walls in joy if stimulated enough, and often goes along with his friend’s eccentric hobbies. Kanna can be snarky towards others in his thoughts and he can be blunt at times, though he means well and he's more frank than sarcastic or mean-spirited. Though sometimes a bit submissive, he is not afraid to speak his mind. He is sometimes  even a bit short-tempered and can snap at others, especially when he is tired or under pressure. Still, Kanna is generally pleasant and easily exhibits kindness and hopefulness to others around him; he genuinely cares about everyone. Although he may have trouble understanding or relating to others after he lost his twin, he is tolerant of everyone's eccentric personalities and quirks and is always willing to listen and give advice. Though he tries to hide it, Kanna is very insecure about his lack of 'talent' compared to his twin and it bothers him deeply. This caused him to admire the other Persona users more than anything, as he believed that being with them would fix his problem. He wished to be part of something bigger than himself, to become more confident and someone he can be proud of.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>:<br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><br/><li>Acrobatic</li><li>Knife/Shuriken Thrower</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: <br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Kanna was born and grew up in Warakuma Town, living with his aunt and identical twin brother Kotaro; as assumed, the twins grew up without their parents, only having their aunt, who offered to take care of the both of them when others could only take one. Despite their circumstances, the three lived in happiness, with the twins always challenging each other in various ways. From washing clothes, to video games, Kanna and his brother were always together, trying to see who was the best at what; it was the only way they felt they could differentiate themselves to others. While Kotaro beat him in almost every aspect by small margins aside from gymnastics, the both of them remained the best of friends, encouraging each other immensely, regardless of who was better.<br/><br/>In school, everyone got them mixed up, even the teachers. It was only when they reached their last year of elementary school that people began to ""separate"" them. Kanna was the kind, intellectual twin that was known for his gymnastic work, while Kotaro was the stand offish and rude twin who was good at everything; a prodigy. Although it was a bit uncomfortable being defined that way by others other than themselves, the twins went with it into middle school. It was then that everything began to change.<br/><br/>The twins took their competitions to a more extreme level as Kanna was determined to find something else he was better than his brother in. They wrestled, fought, danced, and even began taking archery and knife throwing classes to see who was good at every possible thing; Kotaro still managing to pull one over Kanna. Unfortunately, one terrible accident in knife throwing class sent Kotaro to the hospital. He remained there for a few hours before passing away due to blood loss. Of course, this devastated Kanna. He stopped taking gymnastic classes, became lazy with his school work and house chores, and just stopped caring anymore. He felt like without Kotaro there, he couldn't do it, not live up to what his brother could do. Yeah he went to school and went through the motions, but it wasn't the same; it felt like half of him died. He forgot about the encouragement his brother provided and it was replaced with grief. Kanna tried to cope by taking his personality and letting Kotaro live that way. He's been like that ever since.<br/><br/>After gaining his Persona, Kanna becomes more in touch with himself and the encouragement that his brother gave him, now striving to master his gymnastics abilities to make him proud.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona</span>: Pollux<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>:</div></div></div>"

Vision returned as Rui looked around once more... This vivid dream again, though this time, it felt far more real. It was a strange feeling. The thing he noticed immediately however, was now the room's colour like last time, but that a ways down the table he was seated in, was Kami and Noboru. They seemed to also be aware of their surroundings.

They sat at a table, furnished well, smooth finish to a fine what seemed to be mahogany sturdy table. Set upon it was of course, blue cloth and silver utensils, and in front of them were appetizers, small breads and the like. The chair they sat in seemed to be made of the same wood, it was comfortable, soft cushion for both the backing and the seat. The furnishing of this room was grand, or rather, rich. Upon the walls were paintings, the first depicted a blue butterfly standing over a man with one defined detail, which was an earring, the one beside it featured two people, a girl and a boy, hands bound, though their figures stood out, behind them was a mass of darkness like a looming omen, the third featured a single boy walking towards the moon, and the last appeared to be a grand battle between what looked like a deity, and what the people in the room can only describe as a Persona user. As expected, on the furthest end away from the table, was a familiar set of double doors. Not long would they realize that they were wearing some really... Well tailored attires. Everyone seemed to have a different design, Rui was given the great coat over his suit and a long scarf, Kaminari had a trench coat and vest in place of a suit coat, fittingly he looked a little like a detective, while Noboru looked a little like a bartender with the vest and tie set.

Noboru, Rui and Kami immediately remembered the voice that brought them here, but it was not a female's voice this time. It was a man, a strange one at that. A long nose, and a fine suit with eyes unblinking, and round like the full moon.

<font color=""royalblue"">""I am Igor, it appears we have our first guests""</font>, he begins.

<font color=""royalblue"">""This is the Velvet Room, a place that exists between dream and reality, mind and matter...""</font>, beside him stood a familiar lady, the suited lady from before...

<font color=""royalblue"">""Only those who have signed a 'contract' may enter this room... This is the first time we have received so many guests, and would you believe it? There are still yet more to come""</font>, he referred to the other empty seats on this large table... In front of the three was a contract to remind them... Yes, this was what they signed, at the beginning of the year. None of them at the same time, but it was definitely before April.

<font color=""royalblue"">""Though I do apologize on the lateness of this invitation, for you see... Preparations were required, or rather, changed, in order to suit our new guests. It appears you have all taken your first step in your journey... You have rescued your friend here, Noboru, who holds the Strength Arcana. An admirable card, for an admirable soul, one who works hard and values more... emotional aspects, of 'strength'""</font>. Noboru would look down, and see upon his table was a wine glass, with a beautiful carving of the Strength Arcana card on it. Rui and Kami would notice theirs too.

<font color=""royalblue"">""There will be many more to expect... For now, there are too few of you, to complete this mystery, however... Henrietta""</font>, Igor clicked his fingers once, a clean and crisp sound as the suited lady identified as Henrietta, bowed, and then walked by each of the chairs that were seated, and presented the three with a key. It had a distinct design.

<font color=""royalblue"">""You may come here again whenever you wish... You may know of your new power, ""Persona""? Merely come here again, and I will inform you of the progress and strength of your Persona, and hopefully point you in the right direction... All the same, you all may meet with one another here, if you so wish. But until next time, farewell""</font>.

Noboru was admitted to hospital and was expected to recover well before the end of this week... He collapsed after leaving the Mirror World, and was out cold, but perked right back up after a couple minutes in hospital. He missed school today for obvious reasons as they kept an eye on his health, and it looked like police officers had questioned him too regarding his disappearance. Kazuki had told him to keep quiet about the Mirror World, but he probably would have anyways. It appears he didn't have much information on the attackers, Kazuki appeared rather disappointed when he had no new information on the cultists, which he believes were the attackers.

Today Rui went to the hospital to see how Noboru was doing after school. He was wondering though, it didn't seem like the Mirror World had any negative side effects other than exhaustion after first exposure, but honestly he felt it was just natural to go check. He entered the hospital room Noboru was in, Noboru seemed to be in pretty good shape... He might be discharged from hospital much earlier.

<font color=""slategray"">""Yo, I see you're doing well""</font>, he greeted.</div>"

Noboru thought about what had happened in the past day. His whole self had been revealed, and all his secrets had shown themselves, whether he wanted them to or not. Sitting up in his bed, he stretched himself out, his muscles sore. He was going to slide out of his bed and stretch when Rui walked in to talk to him.

<font color=""navy"">Oh yeah, doing well, if doing well included my deepest thoughts being brought into the open, having my supposed hidden self turn into a monster, and then conking myself out on the floor and giving myself a nasty bump. So, all in all, yeah, doing well.</font>

Noboru looked around the small room one more time, feeling the bandages on his head where there were cuts and bruises. These were gonna take a little while to heal up.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada and Saya Ueno: Ueno Restaurant</span>

""Aww, really? Bummer."" Saya released a disappointed sigh as she slumped on the spare seat beside them, her lips drawing into an apologetic grin. ""Sorry, Kotori-chan. Guess I got a little over-excited for some dirt. That's what a weekend shift does to a girl, you know. But not for much longer!"" She yelled triumphantly, jabbing a finger at the clock. ""Another hour and I've paid off my debt! Oh yeah!""

Was she <span class=""bb-i"">still</span> on about those accursed boots? Leiko pondered in slight disbelief as she watched her friend do some kind of victory dance. Perhaps it was just a strange sentiment to Leiko; her high class upbringing left her wanting for nothing, after all. Paying off any sort of debt was an alien concept to her. <font color=""#fff200"">""As pleasing as it is to hear that, Saya, I wouldn't hold my breath,""</font> Leiko said with a small shrug of her shoulders. <font color=""#fff200"">""This isn't the first, and certainly won't be the last time you're in this predicament.""</font>

""Oh, please. I am not getting stuck doing this lame-ass job again,"" Saya denied with a grimace at the very thought. ""I mean, I could be spending my Sunday shopping instead, you know?""

<font color=""#fff200"">""And there lies the eternal conundrum..."",</font> Leiko murmured under her breath, before realizing that Kotori was still in their presence and looking somewhat uncomfortable. <font color=""#fff200"">""Oh, I would like to apologize on behalf of my friend Saya by the way, Shirohane-san. I am fairly sure she was born with her fist firmly lodged in her mouth,""</font> she remarked dryly. <font color=""#fff200"">""Just pay her no mind, and order some food before delving further into our discussion, hmm?""</font> 

""Sooooo mean,"" Saya whined pouting slightly as her eyes flickered to the side for a moment. ""Oh shoot, I think I just saw my mother lurking around. Better not let her catch me."" She quickly got to her feet with an agile and fluid motion, which was impressive considering the wheels attached to her feet. ""Don't forget you're coming over later, right Hama-chan?"" You promised."" She looked over again at Kotori with a thoughtful look. ""Hmm. Hey, you wanna hang out at mine as well, Kotori-chan? We can have like a big, girly sleepover!"" She clapped her hands together in excitement. ""I know you're like, really quiet in school and stuff, but you can loosen up at mine! We'll smuggle some of my dad's sake from the cellar and-""

<font color=""#fff200"">No,""</font> Leiko quickly interjected before Saya brought her suggestion to its completion. <font color=""#fff200"">""I would prefer us not to get inebriated when we have school tomorrow-or at all, quite frankly!""</font> She added with slight colour rushing to her cheeks at her implication. <font color=""#fff200"">""Shirohane will have a terrible first impression of us both if you keep nattering away-and then I will never get an insight into the common student's literary interests!""</font>

""...That's what you're talking about?"" The disapproval was dripping from every syllable of Saya's words as she rolled her eyes dramatically. ""Gee, should have known that you were doing drama stuff. Can't you chill even on your days off, Hama-chan? Seriously."" She looked over at Kotori pityingly. ""Wow, I feel kinda sorry for you. She cornered you with this stuff, did she? But I am serious if you wanna chill later. I'm always up for having new friends. Hama-chan too, even if she is a grump about it,"" she grinned, ignoring the scowl being thrown from Leiko's direction.</div>"

Kotori really didn't know how to keep up with the waitress - from her energetic self, she deflated into a slumped-over form only to perk back up just moments later. As she apologised for her sudden question, Kotori didn't even have time to say that it didn't really bother her before she already spoke on and gave a sudden cry about her remaining shift. Kotori was left to simply look between Hamada and her friend as they exchanged words that indicated that this wasn't the first time she was working on a Sunday - or, for that matter, the last. As Hamada then apologised for her friend, Saya's, exuberance, Kotori raised her hands to wave it off with a quick <font color=""green"">""It's no problem, really,""</font> whilst she at least had the chance.

Getting back on her feet with the threat of her mother catching her with her friend, Saya propped herself up rather quickly - before reminding her friend that she had promised to come over for a sleepover and extending an invitation to the same to Kotori. A quiet <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was her first reaction to that; complete with a surprised expression - which grew into one of worry as Saya went on to list the things they could do whilst there. Luckily Hamada was going to have none of that though - before returning the flow of conversation back to the original reason for which she and Kotori were here in the first place. Saya's interest seemed to wane for a moment when she realised as much - before turning to Kotori to both apologise for Hamada and to remind her that the sleepover invitation was still open.

<font color=""green"">""Ah, it's no trouble, really,""</font> Kotori said whilst shaking her head - whilst it wasn't quite untrue that Hamada had shown up quite suddenly and had a rather forceful way about her, it still had been her own choice to follow along, after all. As for the sleepover - Kotori was... a little apprehensive; if not a little suspicious even. <font color=""green"">""I'm sorry, Ueno-san, but I'm afraid I have some shopping to do later and have to help out at home,""</font> she said in an apologetic tone after bowing her head briefly as she refused the invitation - and whilst her reasons were quite true, she couldn't quite help but feel a slight sense of relief that she had them.

Either way though, there still remained the matter of Hamada's questions and lunch - both of which would be solved over the course of the next while; resulting mostly in one side asking questions and the other merely giving answers. Ultimately, Kotori wasn't sure if she could be of much help to Hamada - but the Drama Club President seemed thankful for her input nonetheless, if in her usual manner. Thus they spent a part of their afternoon at the restaurant - with an occasional showing of Saya in between and even more so after her shift's end - until Hamada was satisfied with what she'd heard. Thanking both Hamada for the meal and Saya for the invitation, Kotori would soon after have to apologise for having to leave; her shopping still having yet to be done.

As she was on her way to the grocery store, Kotori thought back on the conversation - Hamada certainly was quite an assertive person and certainly serious about her Drama Club whilst also being on quite familiar terms with her friend, Saya. They really were quite different, Kotori thought as she entered the grocer's.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Shopping District: Shirohane Residence | Monday, 13 April 2015 - Morning</span>

""Kotori? Could you drop these off? They're on your way to school,"" Tsubame, Kotori's mother asked as she peaked her head around the corner. Kotori, standing up after having just gotten her shoes on, turned to see her standing there with a small bouquet in her hand - a delivery request, no doubt. <font color=""green"">""Of course. Where to?""</font> she asked, getting a grateful smile from her mother as she handed over the flowers and a small note with the address - it was indeed on her way to school. Usually Tsubame took care of the deliveries before opening the shop or later when Kotori could tend to it - unless a convenient address came up such as today. <font color=""green"">""I'm off,""</font> she announced, getting a wave in return as her mother sent her off. ""Thanks. Take care,"" she said, waiting for her daughter to get out of view before turning back to get ready for the remaining deliveries - such as one order that would be going to the hospital.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Main Entrance | Morning</span>

Having made the delivery - a surprise gift from the husband to his wife of an elderly couple, as it turned out - Kotori headed to school; arriving at the front gate safely in time despite the small detour. There were other students of all years already there of course; some standing about talking to their friends, many simply heading to their respective classroom. Kotori was clearly of the latter category - though she stopped at the main entrance to glance over the large notice board found there. Hung there she noticed a flyer for the Drama Club - and not far from it, one for the Idol Club; reminding her of the missing student, Noboru. She hadn't heard anything further on the matter since his brother, Aiko, and Toma had shown up to ask her if she knew anything; leaving her little more to do than simply hope he had shown up and was alright as she turned to head to classroom 2-2.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | After School</span>

""Alright, that's all for today. Class dismissed,"" the teacher declared as the chime rang to signal the end of the school day. Much like expected, a huge ruckus broke out immediately as a majority of the students in class got up and headed out the room; speaking among each other as they headed off to clubs, friends or other places. Kotori, meanwhile, at hear seat much as usual; writing away in her notebook the last details of the class that had just ended. The small worry at the back of her mind, meanwhile, had vanished - as she'd heard a number of students talking during the breaks; among other things about the return of the missing Noboru. Though she'd only just met him on the same day he'd seemingly vanished, Kotori was still glad to hear he was safe as she packed her books and got ready to head out of the classroom; the largest hustle and bustle having calmed down by now.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">APRIL 13 2015, MONDAY
After School</span>

	Sato bit down on his lip hard, nearly drawing blood. The Archery Club was having a quick mini-tournament for the excellent grand prize of free drinks from a local cafe, courtesy of Mika Moriyama, who had hurt her wrist somehow during the weekend and was unable to compete. Second place got someone from the Archery Club to do something for them immediately, which was arguably a better prize. The preliminary round was still going on and the people Sato knew where all messing up in stupid ways. He himself had been doing particularly well, but as usual, it didn’t really matter Since everyone just used the preliminary as a warm-up, anyone who still wanted to compete could, since the whole thing was just spur-of-the-moment and a lot of members didn’t typically arrive in time to join in on the preliminaries. It was really just a formality.

	After the last person Sato knew went (some third-year from a different class), Sato rose from his seat and joined the crowd of people forming around Rokoru, who was unanimously voted to be in charge of organizing it. The club president stood as tall as he could in attempt to rise above the crowd a bit but failed due to the seniors being of equal or similar height. After a few moments of excited babble, Rokoru cleared his throat and started to list the rankings from lowest to highest. Sato didn’t really pay attention until he heard his own name. It might’ve been just his imagination, but he could’ve sworn that Rokoru said his name with a tinge of malice mixed in. “Seventh, Sato Hashimoto. Sixth, Yuki Yoshino…” 

	Frankly, nobody was surprised with the rankings, as they were pretty much how they always were, with the exception of Yuki placing higher than he usually did. The crowd broke apart after Rokoru dismissed everyone on excuse of a short break. He walked over to Mika and pointed at various points on the list, not ceasing speaking the entire time. Part of Sato felt like they were just doing that awkward thing where they act like a couple but still aren’t, but it struck Sato that he was probably discussing his personal predictions with her. And maybe what they were going to do about those sought-after prizes.

	Sato wondered off over to the back of the range and leaned against the wall, observing what others were doing. He considered practicing more while he was waiting for the tournament to start up again, but he decided against it for no good reason. There was pretty much a solid line at the shooting line anyway so it wasn’t like he’d actually get much done anyway. Without much else to do, the boy simply leaned back, resting his head on the wall. That second prize really did seem better to him, especially since he wasn’t really feeling getting drinks from that café after what happened on Sunday. People could choose pretty much anything within regular boundaries. Force someone to go on a date with you. Get somebody to be your maid for a day. The possibilities were practically endless.</div>"

<font color=""slategray"">""So, has anyone visited? I feel as though someone's going to come bursting in right now too""</font>, he commented. He was referring to things like parents and such. He was also sure the news of his hospitalization is already widespread back in school. In fact he was surprised he was the first one here... Then again, he didn't even take a second thought about going, and skipped club entirely.

<font color=""slategray"">""In any case, glad to see you're okay...""</font>, was all he really had to say. He was going to mention the mirror world to him, but he felt it be best to talk about that in a setting where they were less likely to be interrupted or walked in upon.</div>"

The boys eyes fluttered open, awakening from his own slumber, never eternal yet. His eyes slowly adjusted to the room around him, a sea of blue flooded his vision. Once Kami eyes eventually returned to its former vision, he realizes the location for which he was taken to. That place was what was previous time he visited the velvet room, except it was extended by multitudes and was bigger than when he last visited. However, the shades he previously saw had all dispersed themselves, leaving him with a few others occupants. These two others were two familiar faces as he recognized them as the dynamic duo, Rui and his friend Noboru. He found it strange that the other three wern't here, but Sachiko did make the decision of backing out like the others, so he could figure out that they wern't participating in his story. He came up with that deduction for why they decided not to occupy the room, and came up to that final conclusion.

The boy looked around the illustrious room, taking note of the wondrous paintings in the room as they painted myriads of stories. He was seeming caught in a trance by the third picture, pondering on it for a bit with his heart be for taking note of the other pictures, mainly the final one. That one depicted what appeared to be a persona user fighting what looked to be some sort of creature, monster or possibly deity. He pondered on what each of these things could mean as it felt as if it was alluding to the destinies of those who end up in this formal room... Maybe... However his eyes were eventually drawn to what he presumed to be the host and hostess of this room. If he could recall properly, those two were Igor and Henrietta. As he took note of their presence, he noticed not only the food but the fact that each of them were dressed up as if they were ready for a fancy ball.Kami then took note of the suit he was wearing, his eyes widening in surprise. He literally looked like a detective, even with the formal attire on underneath. As he finished inspecting his suit, his eyes returned to the two as they began to spoke.

This whole explanation left him looking for more answers as they spoke to the trio, making him more bemused at the current situation at hand. However, this whole mystery would be solved in due time, however he was able to get a possible grip on who might be causing this whole chain of events to transpire. As they went on, the beautiful blonde woman was eventually requested by the man with the elongated nose to do something which was unknown until she handed out something that looked akin to keys. Were they used to gain access to this room? As he pondered on it, he pocketed the key while listening keenly to what they had to say. Despite the fact that he felt the case was still complete, he knew that he couldn't bring it to a full close just yet... Not yet, until all the holes had been filled with durable ideas. After the womans final parting statement, she bid them all adieu, and that was when his vision began to fade.


-Kaminari Sutoraiki : Warakuma Local Hospital-

Despite the fact that he had other plans for the day, he felt the need to check up on Noboru to see how well he fared after that whole ordeal. He may of not known him that well, but even so he was still a friend and or acquaintance to him. Kami wish he could of told his father everything about the mirror world, but it would probably be dismissed until he could provide further proof. Plus, it wasn't exactly the best idea if they were told as this whole mirror world event felt like it was to more or less people with personas. It wasn't the safest place to be, but he might continue studying that other reality, taking notes on it and such to understand it a bit more. From what he could understand, those who were thrown in were to encounter another version of themselves, one that revealed their true selves. Everything in that world mirrored their world, and almost everything about it was symbolic in some way. However, he saved that for another time as he made his way towards the hospital, texting a few of his friends about the current predicament, saying that he is thankful that he's been found and such before saying he would hang out with them later today. After sending a text to Ayano about apologizing that he failed to keep up his own promise of meeting up with her yesterday, he text her to see if they would meet up at the park later on and talk for a bit. After he finished that text, he disappeared into the confines of the hospital.

""(That was such a crazy day yesterday, but  I guess we are getting started. I hope Noboru-kun is recovering quickly from his physical injuries, but then again I'm sure he can make it through... He has his friend Rui-kun, and both of them are rather strong kids... I wonder what the future has in store for them now that they're together again? Anyways, where did the receptionist say he was at again, dut, dut, dut, hey here it is! I wonder if there is anyone else inside besides Noboru-kun.)""

As he entered into the room, he noticed that there were two people inside the room, Noboru and Rui who were speaking with each other about the events that transpired. As he quietly walked in, he observed the surrounding area before looking over Noboru, and speaking to him.

""Hey, it looks like you're making a pretty good recovery! I'm glad your ok for the most part, and a few others are glad that you are safe too. Either way, I'm glad your ok.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada: Ueno Residence</span>

The weekend left as swiftly as it came, the latter of which was spent at Saya's home. It wasn't the first time Leiko had stayed over, but she still marvelled in the difference between Saya's family life and her own. 

The Ueno Residence was...chaotic, to say the least. Breakfast was rushed and sloppily presented, goodbye kisses were hastened and fleeting, and all the while, Leiko could hear nothing but the distressed sounds of Saya's little brother wailing in the distance. It should have annoyed someone so prim and proper like Leiko, but truthfully...there was a gnawing sense of jealously that brewed within her whenever she stayed there. Despite the pandemonium that was Saya's family life, everything was so bright and full of life that it almost dazzled her. Compared to her own home, with its empty, stagnant rooms, politely scripted conversations, and predictable routine, it was difficult to miss it. Not that Leiko made a habit of complaining about her lot in life. She was very privileged to have the life she had, and she would have no one infer otherwise.

""Goodbye, sweetie. Have fun at Archery Club today,"" Saya's mother smiled good-naturedly, kissing Saya's cheek at the doorstep as she saw the two high school girls off. ""And it was a pleasure to see you again, Hamada-san,"" she added warmly, giving a formal bow in Leiko's direction. ""Please continue to watch out for our daughter.""

""Geez, Mom, stop embarrassing me,"" Saya whined, tugging Leiko's arm as they headed to school. ""Let's go, Hama-chan.""

She was oblivious to the slightly jaded smile that crossed her friend's lips as she followed suit.

<span class=""bb-b"">Saya Ueno: Warakuma High- Archery Range</span>

The school day had been a fairly eventful one, as the student body stirred with rumours that the missing student Noboru Yamamoto had finally been found. The gossiping grew wilder and more outlandish as the day passed by, with some of Saya's friends even suggesting that the boy was currently hospitalised from whatever ordeal he had gone through. Saya didn't really know whether or not to believe that Noboru had been found in such a state, but it was nevertheless a relief to know that her classmate had been found. She only hoped Noboru was recovering quickly and that he would join them all again soon. 

Stretching as the bell tolled for club activities, Saya got up from her desk and bid Hama-chan and her friends farewell before making her way to the range. Hama-chan was planning a study session in the library with some of their classmates, and for once, Saya was more than eager to be excluded. She had more important things to worry about...like practicing her Archery skills.

However, as soon as Saya stepped onto the range, bow and quiver mounted over her shoulder, she noticed that something was off. The object of her affections, Rokoru Ishiara, was crowded by a bunch of club members, and there seemed to be some sort of commotion, which was...strange for the usual nature of the club. Were they holding some special event that Saya had been unaware of? Feeling slightly sheepish at her obliviousness, Saya searched the range for someone less...intimidating to ask, and finally her eyes fell on a boy slouching against the wall by himself. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh!</span> Saya immediately recognized his face, having been introduced as the Vice President of the Archery Club before. She'd never spoken to him before (nor could she recall his name), but he seemed kinda nice. He was bound to have some sort of clue on what was going on.

Straightening her shoulders, Saya walked over to where the male appeared to be brooding, and cleared her throat quietly to catch his attention. ""Umm...Vice Prez?"" She spoke up cheerfully, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear as her eyes flittered to where the group of excited people were starting to disperse. ""Sorry if this is kinda a dumb question, but what's going on?""</div>"

It was hard to believe it was Sunday only yesterday and school had once more rolled itself back into their lives. The thought made Ayano grumble in her head, she was still half-asleep and groggy from last staying up late until it was 2:30 in the morning. In hindsight, it probably wasn't the best of ideas, but there was a special event in the game she was playing. She and friends couldn't have afford to miss it. When the alarm emitting from her cellphone began to play a song on loop for about 2 minutes, Ayano sat up on her bed and stretched. It was Monday, a day that she loathed unlike any other. With a small yawn, she slowly approached her bathroom to get prepared, who knows...Maybe today will be somewhat better than the rest? Nah, that sort of thing never happens.

Dressing in her school uniform she entered the kitchen to see nobody...That's weird, usually at this time, her mother would be preparing food and/or washing the dishes. Her father would be reading the local newspaper and her brother would be eating or probably be asleep, but not today. Looking around for anything that her parents left her, she searched the kitchen and found a small note attached to the fridge. <span class=""bb-i"">""Me and your dad are out shopping for groceries, breakfast is on the table. Also, try to smile more often, dear.""</span> After reading the note, she crumpled it up and threw it in the nearby trashcan. Eating all alone...It was nice, awfully quiet, but that's just the way she liked it.

After eating, the girl grabbed her bag and left for school.
<span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">Ayano Wakahisa: Warakuma High</div></span>
The bell signaling the day was over had rung, it was sweet music to Ayano's ears, nothing exactly exciting had happened over the course of their classes however, she did hear something from her classmates...Ones saying that Noboru was back. There was even talk that he was saying the hospital, most likely because of what had happened. This made the girl curious, who saved him and from what? Was it police? Was the so-called cult responsible for his abduction? Was it something else completely different? The bottom line is: Yamamto is safe and sound.

A second bell had rung moments later, this time for the club activities. Shrugging, Ayano remembered that she hasn't even applied for a club yet...Although, not having one would mean getting home early, but maybe it would be best to join one? After all, common interests are one of the key components for making...Friends.

After asking for directions and wandering all over the place, Ayano found herself face to face with the door that lead to the Anime &amp; Manga Club. Hopefully they're still accepting, she knocked on the door repeatedly, hoping for someone to open it.</div>"

He couldn’t really remember who she was or if he actually even knew her at all, but she seemed to remember him as she referred to him as “Vice Prez”. Sato broke away from the wall and stood next to her. He noted, as he straightened his posture, that she was just barely shorter than him. It seemed odd that something like that was one of his immediate thoughts upon one of his first meetings with this girl he apparently had met before.<br/><br/>	""Sorry if this is kinda a dumb question, but what's going on?"" She asked, a pleasantly cheerful tone being used. Sato glanced over at Rokoru, who was busy shouting off things to people about whatever. He couldn’t actually here the older boy talking due to the increasing volume of those around him, but it didn’t feel important. Likely just talking to or about who’s going first. Sato rubbed the back of his neck before turning back his attention to the girl. Her face seemed so… Ueno! Saya Ueno, who was one of the new recruits.<br/><br/>	“<font color=""skyblue"">Everybody got bored, so we decided to have a little tournament instead of just monotonously practicing today.</font>” Sato gestured over to the people that were already starting, posing themselves with their bow and getting ready to shoot. “<font color=""skyblue"">We already had a ‘preliminary’, but that’s just for fun and anyone who still wants to can participate in the real thing. Believe it or not, we’re actually giving out prizes to the top two winners.</font>” He brushed his hands down his side until he found his pockets, shoving them inside as soon as his hands located them. His thoughts weren’t really organized for explaining what was going on and he took a moment to formulate what else he wanted to say. “<font color=""skyblue"">Don’t worry about signing up or anything though; we just put everybody’s names on a list randomly and that’s how we decide match-ups. If you don’t want to join in just say so when Rokoru calls your name.</font>”<br/><br/>	After a brief moment of silence, Sato pointed over to the line of members that were currently going. “<font color=""skyblue"">And speaking of Rokoru, he’s going right now.</font>” The club president stood in the middle of the line of five people. His jacket was thrown off, as he usually did, and he seemed to be wearing the same thing Sato had seen him wearing the previous day, exposing his bulky arms fully, shoulders included. Rokoru’s choice in that department was a little concerning as he had been covered in sweat when he stopped to talk to Sato, and there was no doubt that it had lead to an equally as drenched shirt. <br/><br/>	Sato focused in on the older boy’s shot. It seemed lined up when he aimed, but it was off when he fired. The arrow lodged itself half-way between the center and the outside, which wasn’t <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> bad. Unfortunately the next shot was a little worse, and Sato predicted it. Rokoru’s stance was all wrong and the second arrow landed in the most-outer quarter of the target. Looking around quickly, the others hadn’t done much better, besides one guy who did pretty decently. Not a strong group to start off with. Though, one would’ve expected that Rokoru Ishiara, head of the Archery Club, would’ve done a little better than that. It wasn’t hard for Sato to guess what had the boy so distracted.<br/><br/>	“<font color=""skyblue"">Not bad for your senpai,</font>” Sato commented (in an almost joking tone) to Ueno. Almost immediately after the five archers cleared from the front of the crowd, Rokoru’s voice called out from the back of the room in the loudest volume the teen usually mustered. <br/><br/>	“Next up is… Ibuki Watanabe, Shota Fujiwari, Hitomi Yamazaki, Rento Nakai, and Saya Ueno.” <br/><br/>At the call of her name, Sato lightly bumped her shoulder with a closed fist. “<font color=""skyblue"">Just go up to the front, shoot two arrows as accurately as you can, and hope everyone else sucks.</font>” He tried to say it in an encouraging voice, but Sato decided the words sounded better in his head. ‘Hope everyone else sucks’ doesn’t sound as good as ‘Hope you’re better than everyone else’, in hindsight.</div>"

Chiaki left school as soon as possible. She heard from the other students in her class that Noboru had been found and hospitalised, the chatter made the situation out to be extreme, Chiaki had many questions but first, she went to find Noboru's room. She asked the nurse hanging around the reception area and got the usual

""Friend or Family?""

After filling out a form, Chiaki was told where to find Noboru, the nurse said something about him being a popular patient.
Walking along the hallway, she could smell the disinfectant and see a lot of people wired to machines and other medical equipment. Chiaki did not like hospitals that much, they gave her bad memories.

Once she found the room, she knocked and opened it, assuming she wasn't interrupting anything, with a cheery hello she realised she, indeed, was interrupting something.

<font color=""#662d91"">Heeell-ooo Noboru-kun!
...
Oh, you have other visitors, sorry for the loud intrusion</font> She closed the door behind her, walked up to Noboru and held out a small bag with sweets and a get well card.

<font color=""#662d91"">For you! I'm glad you're back!</font> She smiled and turned towards the other boys in the room. She had seen one of the boys before, in the hallways of the school. The both wore the male school uniform, so they had to go Warakuma High. Chiaki changed before going to the hospital, she keeps spare clothes in a room in her class, without telling the teacher of course. 

<font color=""#662d91"">You boys are from Warakuma, friends of Noboru I take it. Its nice of you to visit him.</font> She looked at Noboru with a scrunched up face. <font color=""#662d91"">You had me worried! Don't do that again you fool!</font></div>"

Noboru sat and thought about Rui's remark. Sure enough, he was 'okay', but it still didn't sit right with him.

<font color=""navy"">Sure, yeah i'm okay. But during the night I couldn't sleep whatsoever. I was awake nearly the whole night, wondering what would've happened if I didn't accept it. What would've happened if I kept denying it? It's not as if you guys could've kept fighting it. On top of that, All my hate bottled up into one little thing. It bothers me that I kept that for so long, and you guys still decided to stick around after it. You could've walked away, no one would've known the better. I don't know, I guess i'm just rambling on.</font>

Not shortly after his small speech, Kami walked in, apparently checking in on him. He gave a few words of encouragement, but they felt slightly empty, since the guy didn't even know him all that well. The silence became deafening as they looked and sat with each others' company. 

Breaking the silence came a familiar voice entering the room, adding a brightness to the room again. Chiaki walked in with what appeared to be a card and some candy. Giving a hello to the others in the room, Chiaki turned to him and voiced her complaints. With a sly smile he turned back and replied to her.

<font color=""navy"">What ever do you mean? I don't remember doing anything dangerous, let alone worrying anyone. Now, is there any other people who eould like to enter this room? no?</font></div>"

After the second day of school Matt had headed off to work again, he planned to join up for the kendo club and see if there was some agriculture club around but that would wait until tomorrow, for now Matt had work, he still needed to have some form of income as his family could not support him.
“Hey be careful that looks heavy” one of his co-workers called out as he snapped back into the now.
“haha this is nothi-” as if he Jinxed it matt dropped the box he was lifting and collapsed.
“shi- you ok someone call an a-” that was the last thing he heard before falling unconscious.

Matt didn’t wake up till the day after next in a hospital room, at first it was hazy but over time it was explained to him he had been neglecting his health and pushed his body over its limit causing him to collapse. Also due to having no one to look after him it was suggested to stay in the hospital for a few days to let his body recover.

Of course not many people knew him so no one turned up, but it wasn’t all bad there was some sexy nurses there.

Matt was finally allowed to leave the hospital today, so he had dressed in his work clothes and left his room he did kinda wish he had different clothes though. He cheerfully walked down the halls, he would finally be able to return to school tomorrow, which meant fun.. He would probably have to barge into a club to join it though.
Nonchalantly without really paying attention he walked past an open room where he realised people were wearing his uniform so he decided to backtrack to the room to see what was going on.
As he walked into the room he recognised one of the visitors… and the one they were visiting, it had been that guy with the bad mood in the shopping center.
“oh hey..noba… Noboru? so you were hospitalised as well huh? your not in too bad a mood today are you?”
Matt wore a mischievous grin as he said the last part.</div>"

After picking up the groceries, he caught her off guard with a question, freezing her in her tracks. Apparently she did it again as she stood there giving a nervous laugh.

Not long after she replied, the guy apologized before introducing himself. <font color=""firebrick"">""Whaa-?!""</font> she said in surprise. <span class=""bb-i"">He's.....an high school student?!

With her groceries back in her possession, she takes off down the street. Heading for the store nearest to her apartment to pick up the latest copy.

After School

Having skipped the last class of the day to catch up on some sleep, he got up, stretched and made his way to the Range. The last few days were boring and uneventful, maybe he can take his boredom out on something or <span class=""bb-i"">someone</span>. Having changed, he walked onto the range and seen that there was a crowd of people gathered at the range. <span class=""bb-i"">What have we got here...</span>

Standing in the back with his equipment in tow, he watched on as he seen several more people line up and take their shots. After asking one of the other members, he found out they were holding a mock tournament for the hell of it, apparently there was also 'prizes' to be awarded to the top two. He became highly interested in the 2nd place prize. Looking around the range, his eyes rested on Sayo for a moment before stopping at Rokuro. <font color=""cyan"">""Heh,""</font> <span class=""bb-i"">An endless amount of possibilities...</span>

As he moved in closer, it was Rokuro's turn in front of the target. But something was off, it seemed like his mind was in space or something. It was clear something was up when he took his stance. It was like looking at someone who never fired a bow before. As he took his shots, it kind of looked like it. Something one expected from a newbie, but from him? He didn't look like he'd be fun to mess with today. Walking behind Sayo.

<font color=""cyan"">""With this bunch, you might even pull off an upset. Pending you don't shoot someone. Then again, you might even get extra points for it.""</font> he teased</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">You're not in too bad a mood today are you</span>

The way he asked the question slightly irked Noboru. Nonetheless he responded, if not a little passive aggressive.

<font color=""navy"">Well gee I dunno. Going missing for a day and half, plus the problem of bring cooped up in a hospital for two days and possibly more upcoming, on top of the fact that I can't evem work out. That would put me in a bad enough mood to blow a punching bag or two off their chains. Oh well.</font>

Noboru looked around to see if there were any nurses. If possible he would have loved to sneak out of here and actually do something, and hospitals made him uncomfortable in general.</div>"

""I wonder what happened though.""

The hushed words of Leiko's friends crowded around her as the girls leaned closer over the small oak table that they shared. ""He was gone for days. Even his brother was out looking for him. Did he just run away from home?""

""And I heard he's in hospital right now. Maybe he caught pneumonia or something? He probably slept rough-""

<span class=""bb-b"">Bam.</span> The solid thunk of Leiko's textbook hitting the wooden surface of the table jostled them into silence, shared looks of confusion amongst them as they watched Leiko warily. ""Umm...Hamada-chan?"" 

<font color=""#fff200"">""We're supposed to be studying, not discussing Yamamoto"",</font> Leiko reminded them with a steely look. ""<font color=""#fff200"">If I realized that we were just gonna gossip about people we don't know, I would have suggested the mall.""</font>

""But aren't you even a little curious, Hamada-san?"" One of her friends spoke up as she met Leiko's line of sight boldly. ""I mean, Noboru-kun always seemed so happy. People really liked him. Why would he even do something like this?""

Honestly...Leiko would be lying if she denied being curious about the Drama clubmate's recent whereabouts. To show up so suddenly (and if the rumours were to be believed, in hospital) had stunned her as soon as she caught wind of it, and she found her thoughts helplessly drifting back to his first audition and his flawless, confident, practised performance. Acting was in his blood, she supposed, but in the end, that was all it was. There wasn't a shred of Yamamoto to be found on that stage, and she could still remember the shadows of doubt that lingered in her mind back then.
And then he disappeared. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""I'm not.""</font> Leiko suddenly broke her own silence, turning a corner of her page purposefully as her eyes drew back to the desk.<font color=""#fff200"">""Now can we get back to studying?""</font>

In any case, she would most certainly give him something to think about if he missed Drama Club again tomorrow.

<span class=""bb-b"">Saya Ueno: Warakuma High- Archery Range</span>

The Vice President made a funny expression as Saya caught his attention, as if he was trying to place her face from the growing amount of archery club members. Saya couldn't really blame him for that, and she opened her mouth to follow suit with an introduction, but he cut her to the quick with a straightforward answer to her question. ""A tournament?"" Saya reiterated with a blink, glancing over to where the boy was pointing. Indeed, people were loading their bows with arrows and standing in an orderly line for one of the lanes.. So the 'preliminaries' were already over, apparently. Well, it would have been nice to have practiced instead, Saya thought with a slightly dejected pout. There was no way she was ready to take part in some kind of tournament, let alone win any 'prizes'. It was a shame, but at least she would have the chance to watch Rokoru-senpai in action again.

And then the Vice President's next words made Saya's fleeting fantasies grind to a screeching halt. ""What?"" She gasped, her eyes widening like saucers at the fact that her name had been opted in <span class=""bb-i"">already,</span> without her consent. ""B-But wait! I haven't practiced! A-And I suck!"" She protested with a wild shake of her head. ""Ahh, but I can't just tell Rokoru-senpai <span class=""bb-i"">that!</span>"" She despaired, more to herself to the boy in front of her as she looked over at the Club President standing proud over the other members. If she refused now, Rokoru would think she was just completely pathetic for not even trying. And then he would never like her back.

""<font color=""skyblue"">And speaking of Rokoru, he’s going right now.</font>” The Vice President's words jolted through her like a live wire as Saya broke out of her panicked thoughts, her mouth slightly agape as she watched her senior make his way to the marked line. He looked as ruggedly handsome as he always did in her eyes, and the thick frame of his body straining in the tight cotton of his damp shirt did not go unnoticed. However, as Rokoru started to sling his arrows, Saya's mind went into overdrive. Everyone would be watching her. Counting her shots, judging her every move. It was so much pressure that Saya wasn't even ready for yet. Informal or no, this was still a test of her skill, and Saya had practically none so far.

Skin turning ashen, Saya watched silently as Rokoru stepped away from the line, the Vice President following through with some kind of joke. Honestly though, Saya had barely paid attention to what Rokoru had actually scored. She was too busy being distracted by his wet shirt and her own impending doom to even care. 

Once Rokoru started calling out the next archers, and inevitably reached her name, Saya felt like the world was about to end. So much for having a chance in hell with him now. She was going to make a complete fool of herself in public, and he would never take her seriously. Her shoulders sagged dejectedly, and only the Vice President's punch on her shoulder broke her out of her slump. His encouraging words, as well meaning as they were, felt a little hollow to her, but Saya was still strong enough to press a smile on her lips. ""Thanks. They're gonna have to suck really badly though,"" she laughed self-deprecatingly, her eyes glancing down at the range warily. ""Well, I guess-""

<font color=""cyan"">""With this bunch, you might even pull off an upset. Pending you don't shoot someone. Then again, you might even get extra points for it.""</font>

""Huh?!"" Saya jumped, very nearly knocking over her Vice President in the process as she whipped around to the voice that sprung behind her. ""Y-You!"" She gasped at the sight of Akira, the boy that had upset Rokoru-senpai before, and the guy that had caused her so much trouble in the first place. His words were highly sarcastic, accompanied by a a teasing gleam in his eyes as he waited for her reaction. She swallowed thickly, trying to keep her cool as best she could in front of Warakuma's famed delinquent. ""Y-Yeah? Well, maybe that's your approach to things, Kirigakure-san,"" she sniffed. ""But I don't want to hurt anyone. And...And I don't want Rokoru-senpai to get the wrong impression if he sees us talking,"" she added in a hushed whisper, her eyes fraught with dread as she looked over the lanes once again. ""A-Anyway, I...I have to go.""

Taking a deep breath to motivate herself, Saya rewarded the other boy with a grateful smile before marching down purposefully to where a small line was forming. Standing at the very back, Saya noted the way that the other members were conversing and laughing like this was any other club day. Perhaps it was, and she was just overreacting? Yes, perhaps that was it.

Two names later and that attitude was quickly starting to wane. The ones before her were hardly slacking on their shots, and Saya could swear she could feel eyes burning into her from everywhere. Her stomach knotted with nerves as she felt a wave of nausea wash over her, reminiscent of that one and only time Hama-chan had forced her into the Drama Club. She had to recite a play by some Greek guy, and within ten words of her soliloquy, she was throwing up more than just words. 
Needless to say, Hama-chan didn't invite her to the club again. 

One more person left, and Saya was really starting to feel the pressure. Her body was starting to tremble, her palms were becoming clammy, and she was pretty sure she was as pale as a ghost. Still, she refused to back down in front of the guy she liked, and when it was finally her turn, Saya stepped up to the mark with an almost impressive degree of determination. When she got there however, she immediately felt the need to bolt away and never come back. The target looked impossibly far away, the arrow felt slippery on her sweaty hands, and she felt like a million eyes were watching her every move. Letting out an audible gulp, Saya raised her bow and arrow, her arms shaking from the combined force of the taut string and her own shot nerves, and after an excruciating second, let go of the arrow with a weak twang. 

The arrow didn't even reach halfway the lane, and Saya couldn't feel any more embarrassed. Refusing to look or listen to anyone around her, Saya quickly turned and reached for the second arrow, desperate for the moment to end so that she could curl up under a rock and cry. Loading her bow with the second arrow, Saya tried to blink back the tears as she vainly attempted to line up the sight of the target with the point of her arrow. Biting her lip, Saya shut her eyes as she let go of the straining arrow with as much force as she could muster. 

A distinct thunk against wood told her that the arrow had found its target, and Saya's eyes immediately snapped open at the sound. What she did see however, made her pinch herself in disbelief. 

The arrow was securely lodged in the dyed red centre of the target. The more Saya stared at it, the more impossible it was to deny it. It was her shot, and it <span class=""bb-i"">was in the centre.</span> 

Numbly, Saya slung her equipment back over her shoulder and walked away from target lane, completely shell shocked and unable to comprehend what had just happened.</div>"

	Ueno offered a weak and shallow thanks for the equally as weak and shallow encouragement he gave. She began to make her way to the line-up, when yet another vaguely familiar face approached and offered his own ‘kind’ words. Though, Sato was a little quicker to remember Akira due to his rather unforgettable streak of actions in the Archery Club. The words Akira gave weren’t particularly hurtful (at least, in Sato’s opinion) but they were both rude and uncalled for, especially when Ueno was obviously on edge due to being ‘forced’ to participate in the tournament. Ueno herself was clearly upset by the comment though, and she blubbered off a few things Sato didn’t quite understand.

	Not soon after, Ueno made her way away from Akira and over to where she needed to be, equipment in hand. Sato watched her and the people in the line for a bit before walking past Akira, pausing as he did so. “<font color=""skyblue"">Don’t be an ass,</font>” Sato said with a lazy glare. It wasn’t exactly the epitome of a good retort but people like Akira got off on seeing people get mad over comments like that. “<font color=""skyblue"">We can kick you off for disorderly conduct you know.</font>” Happy with his own words, Sato walked off from Akira and to the other side of the room, where he could get a better view of person that was currently shooting.

	Sato found a comfortable position against the wall again and kept a focused eye on the competition. He had missed the first dude’s shots, but he caught a good look of the arrows before they were pulled out of the target. An alright attempt, from what Sato could tell. The next three people went after and they did pretty decently all-around. The hope for Ueno he once had slowly died out by the time that she got to the front, bow and arrow in hand and ready for her first shot. 

	Which was an unfortunate flop. Pretty much literally, too. The arrow seemed like it just fell from the bow, not even going halfway to the target before crashing into the ground, seemingly burning up into nothing in everyone’s eyes. It wouldn’t even stick even if it got to the target. A crushing silence fell over the previously raucous crowd and Sato couldn’t help but feel embarrassed <span class=""bb-i"">for</span> her. Even if she could manage to get the next shot done well, there was no way she’d be able to salvage that mess of a shot in the long run.

	Ueno poised up for her next shot. She visibly gave more power to the shot, and for a brief moment, Sato had a little bit of hope for this girl. Maybe she could get not last! It would be a wonderful day for all to see this happen. But, what did happen was far from Sato’s— and everybody’s— expectations. The arrow flew out of the bow’s notch with little grace. Fortunately, the arrow found itself straight into the target, and Lady Luck was on nobody’s side but Ueno’s. The underdog of the show had managed to get the best shot so far, a perfect bulls-eye, right after she had made the <span class=""bb-i"">worst</span> shot. Another silence fell over the crowd, but a stunned one instead of a pitying one. Nobody knew how to react. Not Rokoru, not anybody, and especially not even Ueno herself.

	Soon, however, someone started clapping. It slowly started up until it became a resonating sound, every clap like one on the back for this girl who showed up a week ago and just pulled off a bulls-eye. The applause was a bit short-lived but it was pleasant while it lasted, and soon Rokoru ended up stammering something over the crowd’s murmuring. “W-well, next up is Ai Aibe, Kuro Funai, Madoka Koyanagi, Osamu Mae, and Mari Hayakawa…” An awkward path in the pool of people opened up and the called persons emerged from the waters, making their way up to the front, giving a few wide-eyed stares to Ueno as they passed her. It was clear that nobody was really sure if they could top that, besides maybe Mr. Perfect whom had recently arrived, as Sato knew very well.

	“… and because he took first place, that leaves second place to our lovely Saya Ueno! The wonderful grand prize of coffee courtesy of my wallet has already been taken, so all we can over you is one free wish from anybody currently in this range. I’d like you to decide today if you could, just for everyone’s ease.”

	Rokoru leaned back in the stool he sat on until the back of his head hit the wall, preventing him from falling. Mika had such a way with words when she wanted to. A fantasy of going out with her distracted him from the words the girl was saying, but it wasn’t like he didn’t already know what she was saying. So and so won expectedly, Ueno deserved to win one of the prizes for that happy accident, and then she’d go on to list the full rankings. He himself had gotten a mediocre score, placing somewhere in the middle, but it wasn’t like he really cared much in the first place. First or second place would’ve been nice though, especially since Mika would have to accompany the winner in the case of the first place prize, and that would be his second place demand minus the hassle of actually asking for it.

	After a little bit of waiting through the rankings, Rokoru rose from his seat, not bothering to unfold his crossed arms, and walked over to where the Ueno girl was. He quietly cleared his throat before looking straight at her. “Nice job,” he said, giving a legitimate smile, which felt unfamiliar on his normally stern face. “it was impressive.” After he gave his compliment, Rokoru wandered off from the girl to the front of the crowd. He replaced Mika and readdressed the eyes waiting for more words from him. “First place, go talk to Mika regarding your deserved victory spoils.”

	“Second place, it’d be nice if you could decide who’s doing what right now. Or, at least before I leave.” Rokoru shot a glance in Ueno’s general direction in a weird attempt to make sure she was paying attention. She seemed to respond to his attention rather well. Well enough to be able to use to his vantage in situations like the current one.</div>"

Suddenly, the girl glanced at her watch and like Cindrella, left their meeting abruptly. Well, atleast she gave part of her name, Hanezawa! sounded like a name from the Yakuza or the Samurais of yore. Still he just waved her goodbye as he turned and went about his business. People here were certainly strange, really friendly and warm almost like the polar opposite of what the big city was like. He felt again, that moving into the country was possibly the best decision he had made in a while.

The school was the same old routine. Inoue was still unwell and so with the sheer lack of numbers and Sagat's own lacking will for sparring, Alexei was left to dawdle the school halls for sometime before his shift began. He went towards the notice boards to check on any other clubs that were still recruiting. On there he found a club to his liking. ""Anime and Manga"" Club. One that reminded him of his meeting yesterday. He didn't have his hopes high but he thought that maybe he'll see that girl in this if he could find her. But then it dawned on him that he didn't know where she studies, so it was a rather long shot. 

But still maybe the members were cool since they didn't bother to post a recruitment drill. He decided to check it out. As he reached the club room, he found a beautiful Japanese girl standing there apprehensively, clearly contemplating something. He decided to maintain his distance so as not to startle her and ask in a low voice, which sounded a lot like a low growl,

<font color=""firebrick""><span class=""bb-b"">""Do you need help with something, miss?""</span></font> as he proceeded to knock the door and put his hand on the handle, twisting it in its bearing to open the door.

When Matt entered the room he tried being cheerful but he felt two near hostile looks but lucky not everyone was suspicious of him.
“Oh hey its Chia but hey I did nothing dangerously stupid…. I only overworked my body…” Matt half mumbled at the end. Regaining himself Matt looked towards the guy who asked who he was and tried to redignify himself.
“I’m Matt… um Matth… Harvester, Matthew. I’m an exchange student from Australia going to the same school as you” almost completely fumbling his comments Matt turned to the one everyone was here to see.
“Sucks man, I already missed a week so i feel ya pain if you want i can give you  list of the hot nurses shifts…. i mean do you want mags or something to keep you interested” Matt realised what he was about to say and tried to divert his own comment.</div>"

Even as she knocked on for what seemed like minutes and standing there, waiting for a response, there was still nothing. Was it all for nothing? Was it useless? The girl repeatedly bashed herself for thinking she stood a chance at making friends outside of the confines of her laptop...She gave a deep sigh and was about to turn and leave. That is until a deep, growl-like voice came from the distance.

Ayano was scared, that voice sounded like the voice of a person you'd meet outside the school. Ones that probably live the dangerous life...She slowly turned her head to see who it was, what she saw was definitely not what she was expecting. A rugged and handsome-looking young man, his facial features seemed to denote that he is not a native of the country, he looked strongly built, it reminded the girl of the same types of men she sees in...<span class=""bb-i"">""Wait, that's not the time to be thinking about that!""</span> She subconsciously said to herself and scolding her brain for thinking such obscene thoughts.

Whatever meekness exuded from her stature was simply blown away by the clear eyes that gazed directly at him. Her reply though was as soft as he had expected.

Saya sat down numbly as one of the female club members started to announce the rankings for the tournament, a shallow breath escaping her lips at the mention of her name. She had won second place. In <span class=""bb-i"">archery,</span> of all things. She had won something, and completely through her own efforts.

The more she thought about it, the less any of it made sense. She was terrible at archery. She would admit hands down that she was one of the worst archers on the range without a moment's hesitation. And yet, somehow-

She quickly cupped her mouth with her hands to hold back the excited squeal that rose in her throat. She had actually hit a bullseye. She didn't really know <span class=""bb-i"">how,</span> or even why, but there was no mistaking it. The arrow had been firmly stuck in the red centre of the target, and all of the other members were in agreement. So much so, that her arms were still sore from the congratulatory nudges she had received from some of the others. Wincing slightly, Saya glanced over at the crowds, where she could easily spot the lean figure of Akira Kirigakure. He had expectedly won first place, according to the female announcer, and as his reward, he would receive an unlimited supply of coffee from the announcer herself. Personally, Saya felt that it was quite a nice reward. Had she received something similar, she would have liked the opportunity to make a new female friend within the club.

Of course, her own reward was a little...different, and Saya didn't really know what to feel about it. She wasn't particularly thrilled with the idea of forcing someone to do something for her against their will, and there wasn't anyone there that she would really desire anything from. Well, apart from maybe one...

Her eyes glanced over at the person at the forefront of her mind, the club president himself as he sat placidly on one of the stools. She bit her lip as she envisioned the way she could approach such a request. <span class=""bb-i"">I wish to ask Rokoru Ishiara on a date.</span> No, too forward. <span class=""bb-i"">I'd like to ask Ishiara-senpai to take me somewhere nice and quiet, just the two of us.</span> No, that was <span class=""bb-b"">way</span> too forward, and could be completely misconstrued. <span class=""bb-i"">I wish...</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Ahem.""</span>

""Huh?"" Saya jumped a little as she heard someone clear their throat,  looking up with a slightly overwhelmed expression as she realized that Rokoru was standing right in front of her expectantly. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh my god...did he just read my mind or something? What do I say...umm...uhhh...</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Nice job,</span> Rokoru continued with a disarming smile, making Saya's stomach flutter as he further complimented her performance in a simple manner before leaving as quickly as he came. Watching his retreating form, Saya felt herself sink into a state of utmost bliss, a goofy smile adorning her face as she shyly played with loose strands of her hair. Rokoru-senpai actually took his time to <span class=""bb-i"">compliment</span> her. It didn't even matter that she was second place anymore; she had truly won. 

As Saya's mind wandered, she could hear Rokoru speak up about Kirigakure claiming his prize from 'Mika' (the female announcer, Saya realized), before looking over and addressing her as 'second prize'. At that, Saya immediately perked up, noting that Rokoru's attention was fully on her, and she blanched slightly when he urged her to make a decision on claiming her prize. She knew what she <span class=""bb-i"">wanted,</span> but how could she go about it?

Her hand went down to tug on her sleeve sub-consciously, but she quickly clenched it into a fist before she could loosen the thread. It wouldn't do any good to become nervous now. She was Saya Ueno, the girl no one thought could actually win something like this. It was about time she took a little initiative.

""I want to go on a shopping spree,""  Saya replied confidently, the decision understandable enough to the people who knew her. She wasn't known as a fashionista for nothing, after all. ""And..."" She almost faltered on her words, but she inwardly refused to back down as she met Rokoru eye to eye. ""I want Ishiara-senpai to escort me for the whole day.""

There. It wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">exactly</span> a date, but it would mean more personal time with Rokoru-senpai. Heck, it could even <span class=""bb-i"">become</span> a date if things worked out really well, although Saya dared not to bring her hopes up too high quite yet. Rising her head up, she added, ""I'll claim my wish near the end of the week.""

And without another word or a backwards glance, Saya turned around and left the range, her face burning red at what she had let herself in for.</div>"

Lost in her own little world, the knocks at the door eluded her as she had a pen in her hand yet seemed to be somewhere else completely.

After School

As expected, Ueno's reactions are still top-notch as ever, as she nearly knocked over Hashimoto as she whipped around at warp speed as she gasped at the sight of him. Raising his hand, <font color=""#00746b""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yo""</span></font> he said with a knowing smile, watching as she fought to maintain her composure. <font color=""#00746b""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah, I'm sure he'd be all shook-up by seeing his little girl talking to another man.""</span></font> He said as he moved closer to her face for added effect. As her voice grew quiet, she quickly looked over the lanes, probably to make sure her master didn't see her talk to him as she walked away <span class=""bb-i"">Heh</span>

After she walked off and off to the platform to shoot, Hashimoto came over and scolded him for the little interaction as well add in an idle threat. As he walked over, apparentely feeling good over his little speech, Akira just simply laughed and walked over, getting a better view of the platform. Glancing at Saya, he could see that she was getting paler after each person took their turns aiming at the target as she stood there trembling. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I went too far, she was already at her limits as it was.</span> Who could blame him? Well, a lot of people apparently, but she was quite cute and he couldn't help himself.

Finally, it was her turn. Akira had expected her to give up and step down, given the way she was trembling and looked all scared but surprisingly, she stuck it out and gave off an impressive aura of determination. Though, her arms were shaking and after a moment, released her first shot and it didn't even go half-way down the lane...There was an eery silence as the room gone quite and Ueno all red. She clearly was embarrassed, but with tears in her eyes she released a 2nd arrow, eyes closed and all, to not only make it down range it hit the board, but a bullseye nontheless. Even Akira was surprised, never would of expected it. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe she can make it here after all...</span>

After seeing Ueno's bullseye, there was a lot of groaning as the lot of them gave up hope on the prize. He couldn't help but laugh, but I'm sure everyone was thinking as he did, was that she'd miss and possibly come in last but nope, bullseye and while she missed the first one, no one else had gotten any better. <span class=""bb-i"">Their pride must've taken quite the hit...</span> he grinned. After the next bunch went up and didn't do all that much, it was his turn. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, might as well get this over with.</span>

With a stretch, he grabbed his bow and went up to the range, with all eyes on him. Grabbing an arrow, he placed it on the bow and pulled it back. With a deep breath, he glared at the target, as if fighting with it personally. After a moment, he released the arrow and drilled into the middle, Bullseye. As everyone looked on, he took a moment before loading the next arrow. Pulling it back, he took aim and fired. Tracing the first, came the second arrow, splitting the first one. 

While he wouldn't admit it, despite not having been in the Archery Club dojo to practice since that day, he'd still make it a habit to shoot hundreds of arrows at the dojo back home. It's really hard to break habit, especially after doing it for so many years now. Keeping his calm, he went back to his previous spot and put his bow as he sat down and layed against the dojo wall. It wasn't long after that the 'competition' finally wrapped up and Mika came out to announce the results. 

To the surprise of no one, Akira won the competition. It was more jealousy and anger, well mostly jealousy. Guy shows up late, wins competition and gets to go on a 'date' with Mika, it was too much. Though it meant nothing to him, he knew of someone else that it meant something totally different. As Rokoru replaced Mika and addressed the crowd, he reminded them of their rewards. With a smile, he glanced at him. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00746b"">""Don't worry Rokoru, I won't keep her out too late, we'll have some fun on our <span class=""bb-i"">date</span> on your behalf.""</font></span> he gives him a thumbs up as he walked over to Mika.

	“<span class=""bb-i"">I want to go on a shopping spree, and… I want Ishiara-senpai to escort me for the whole day.</span>”

	Those weren’t quite the words Rokoru was expecting from Ueno. A bunch of different questions wanted to spew out of his mouth at this but they all created a traffic jam, and instead of saying any of them, he merely just exhaled his breath with his mouth still agape. A <span class=""bb-i"">shopping spree</span>?! Did she expect him to pay for it? It wasn’t like he could really afford it, with merely a couple shifts per week on his shoddy part-time jobs. And then the next part was that he was to accompany her ‘<span class=""bb-i"">for the whole day</span>’. Did she mean <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> the <span class=""bb-i"">whole</span> day? Rokoru wasn’t particularly opposed to spending the evening with a nice looking girl like Ueno, but still. He barely knew her, but he supposed that this would an adequate remedy for that, even if it is forced. “<span class=""bb-i"">I'll claim my wish near the end of the week.</span>”, she added a little bit after. That also meant that he’d need to keep his schedule open in the latter half of the week.

	Just as Rokoru organized his words well enough to utter a low “Am I supposed to…”, Ueno fled the scene and the rest of sentence fell flat as he watched a few people part to get out of the way of the speed demon she became. He frowned at the development. There was supposed to be discussion on the specifics but there was apparently going to be none of that going to happen. But, he had little time to sulk—was he sulking over this?—for the action was apparently not destined to end in the Archery Club. Dear old friend Akira had made his way over to him, and it seemed rather obvious that he was either going to brag about either his <span class=""bb-i"">completely unexpected</span> victory or how he’d trumped Rokoru score-wise. 

	Or he’d brag about how he scored an <span class=""bb-b"">outing</span> (not a date, Mika emphasized when they had discussed the prizes) with Mika herself, teasing him a bit on the basis that he knew that Rokoru had a bit of a crush on her. That would work too, as it was also what Akira had ended up saying to him before quickly walking away and over to Mika. Rokoru simply lowered his brow in response and bit the inside of his bottom lip. There was nothing else to do anymore besides chilling out until everyone went home, so Rokoru found himself lounging about with some of the other third-year guys, sitting down on the raggedy couch they somehow dragged into the range a year ago.

	As soon as Rokoru had taken over, Mika had ended up chatting in a gaggle of other girls, almost completely ignoring whatever Rokoru was saying. He didn’t say much, though, for he was soon going back to doing whatever Rokoru does when she wasn’t there to moderate him and his generally poor decision-making. Sato soon took to the front and began reading out (in a really drawn-out way) every name on the list with their rankings. Mika returned to gossiping about various things—that one-in-a-million shot Saya Ueno made, the hideous skirt that Ai Aibe wasted her money on, stuff like that. At least, she would’ve, but that Akira guy had found her sooner than she would’ve like.

	He stated that he was ready to go for that promised coffee trip, and in response, Mika held up hand to her chin as if her fingers would break if she touched too hard. “I wasn’t thinking of going today…” She pouted a bit to emphasize her disappointment and to hide the bit of baseless disgust she felt towards Akira. “I promised Umeko I’d watch that new movie that came out with her after Archery today. Would it be okay with you if we went after school tomorrow? I’m free then.” Her words felt too casual as they left her mouth, but what was done was done and she didn’t really feel like being rude was the right thing to do.</div>"

She rolled her eyes. It did't bother her that much, but they could have atleast waited until she left to talk about female nurses. Chiaki shrugged and decided to do one her favourite activities. Bully Mathew.

<font color=""#662d91"">I'll look past the fact that you're sexualising the people charged with keeping you alive, but I would have thought you were, ya'know, into younger girls?

Chiaki laughed, and turned to the other two boys.
<font color=""#662d91"">Ah, so we haven't actually met before have we?</font>
Chiaki smiled and introduced herself.
<font color=""#662d91"">My name is Chiaki Nettu. I'm a first year at warakuma and fairly new to town, I arrived about a week ago. Aside from my sense of style, i'm completely normal. Yep, nothing special about me at all hahaha! I hope we can be great friends.</font></div>"

Being with the young man made Ayano awkward, to say the least. He's being awfully kind for a stranger he just saw in the hallways. He opened the door and gestured for her to enter, which she did so cautiously. Inside the room, Ayano could see a girl working on something, presumably a drawing or so. 

For a while, Ayano just stood there and observed the girl and her process of drawing, she reeled her head back in surprise when she shouted all of a sudden...the young man she was with began to shout as wellto the other girl. Was that really necessary? Is today Shouting Day? Regaining both her sense of hearing and composure, Ayano gave a small grin when the girl said that they were still accepting. At least now she has something to do after school.

The guy who asked who Matt was before had spoken towards him, and had apparently taken interest in his comment about Nurses. Was he an ally? one who understood? there was only one way to find out.
But before he could start Chiaki had thrown her comment in about the nurses being grannies seemingly trying to nail him into a coffin.
She then turned to address herself to the others, but Matt was not going to give up here, oh no sir he was the type of guy that was vocal of his interests.
“Hue, not all of them are that old, there are some nice ones in their twenties, some have a mature look while others have a young lively appearance.. and the nurse uniform emphasises it all, Though I don’t mind older woman i'm not into girls that old, but why would you wonder about my interests? I like younger girls too. but don’t try and twist those ether” Matt spoke enthusiastically and quickly.. so quickly he didn’t notice a glare on his back until he stopped for a breath… feeling the pressure he slowly turned around to see a nurse standing there, probably here to check up on Noboru. Matt also recognised this nurse.
“oh….  Noemi-san…..how long where you standing there?” A cold sweat dripped down his face.

“From the part just before mentioning the nurse uniform” The nurse replied coldly.
Matt couldn’t help but let some comments run through his mind.
Age 26
appearance, quite well above average 
personality, ice queen type
this was not going to end well.
“Now Matthew Harvester”
“y...es?” Matt was afraid of what would happen next.
“I was coming here to check up on the boy who is hospitalized in this room but I find a certain someone who was just discharged… do you want to be sent back into a hospital bed for another week?” If looks could kill Matt would be long dead.
“I would rather no-” before mat could finish he felt a clipboard make contact with his face.
""i am sorry for the inconvenience this boy as caused, I will return to for another checkup later"" The Nurse said calmly as she dragged off the idiot. </div>"

He thought it was a little strange she had to say she was completely normal but with a sense of style... In any case, he still can't shake the feeling he's seen her somewhere before... It appears Matthew was kind of shot down and then pinned to the ground by a verbal stake, which was a bit embarrassing, though he fell dead silent when he saw a nurse stand behind Matt as he kept talking. The whole room fell silent and watched as the awkwardness piled up until the nurse lectured him a little before smacking him in the face... Well, he wasn't wrong about some of the nurses here being attractive. In any case... Matthew was being dragged off and as that was happening everyone waved good bye.

<font color=""slategray"">""Hm... Well, Noboru is okay... I guess I should get going...""</font>, he said, getting up.

<font color=""slategray"">""Make sure to let us know when you're discharged""</font>, this was directed at Noboru before he picked his bag up and walked towards the door.

	After having finished with going through the entire rankings, Sato made his way to the back of the range and put away his equipment, making sure to hide the arrows he liked to use behind the metal cabinet. The school stuff he had brought with him was still resting on the ground beside the cabinet (minus the bag he usually had to carry them with, which he had lost in his house somewhere), so Sato simply tucked the textbooks and whatnot beneath his arm before making his way out of the range. The teen went over the leaderboard he had read, and recalled the rankings. He himself had gotten a mediocre rank (12 out of whatever), and nobody he knew did much better. Rokoru got third last, while Yuki was particularly on point with a solid fourth. Not like it mattered or anything, since only first and second actually got anything besides the ability to gloat for the day if you did better than your peers. Sato wasn’t even that sure why they did lame tournaments like what they had just done, but it admittedly <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> pretty fun, even if it was an organizational mess that was created on a whim of someone’s.

	Soon Sato found himself loitering by the main entrance again. The sun was a little higher up than last time, and the fact that the sun was only going to last longer from then on struck him. It was an almost comforting thought; everything was only going to get brighter from that point on, in a way.

	Sato shook his head. There was no point in trying to get all philosophical over how the winter solstice was months ago. It seemed to be a habit of his though. Always finding himself with nothing he wanted to do at the front entrance of Warakuma High. It’s not like he didn’t want to go home, but he didn’t want to not go home. He craved to be with people but there was only his mother waiting for him at the Hashimoto residence. As he climbed the few steps that lead up to the stretch leading to the doors, he considered pets. Would a pet be good for him? There was only one way to find out, but Sato fancied himself neither a dog or cat person. Or maybe he was just not an animal person in general…

	Just as one foot cleared the final step of the small cement staircase, the other foot caught itself on the very edge of the pavement, sending the third year sprawling onto the ground, the school books he carried under his arms flying away from him like he purposely threw them. Random papers flew out from inbetween the pages, fluttering out into the wind before being caught into the grass a few feet away. Sato remained on the ground for an uncomfortable amount of time, feeling the tiniest spots of blood emerge from the bits of shredded skin on his palms. The boy eventually pushed himself onto his knees and evaluated where his stuff went, still looking ruffled and a little dazed from what happened.</div>"

Still sitting in class, where he decided to do the homework that was assigned earlier, placed his pencil down as he sighed in relief. Holding up his paper he was sure of one thing. And that was he had no clue what he just wrote down, math was always confusing and he was positive he wrote fish somewhere. What counted however was that he finished it, granted he would have done it later at home but that was after he finished the drama club for the day. Yet that would come tomorrow where he would expect a lecture from the teacher on how on earth he got fish, so packing up his supplies he walked out of the class room to go back home where he try to amuse himself with the internet.

As he was walking out the front door and began to descend the stairs to exit the school's property, one student fell down falling towards the ground while all his belonging's flew everywhere. Sieg couldn't help but sense the perfect opportunity to play the role of a kind helping stranger in this scenario.

With that in mind Sieg walked down the rest of the steps and casually picked up a book that flew from the guys hands, as he scanned the area he saw just how much of the guys belongings flew everywhere. So he decided that he wouldn't play a role, and that he would sincerely help, you would have to be a real dick to just ignore someone after seeing this. Spending a few minutes walking around picking up the items, he walked over to the man, and held out the books and papers he picked up. <font color=""#aba000"">""Took a bit but I gathered up your items, must of been one hell of a fall.

As the boy spoke to Noboru, he didn't quite respond to him at all which only made the silence a bit more awkward, and made his debut here rather unnecessary. He was trying to just make the boy feel a bit better and appreciated but it seems he was just making the situation worse. Kami rubbed the back of his neck as he took a seat by Rui, and seemingly waited for something to happen. Maybe the boy could make a full recovery and get out of here and get back to school before anything else transpired, and continued to do what he loved. The boy most likely could still be troubled by what he knew about him, but he wasn't going to exactly let him fall. To him, Noboru showed him something personal partially out of his free will and due to being coerced forcefully by his own shadow. Either way, the only thing that mattered was the he was safe for right now. As the trio say in wait, another seemingly came into the room. It was a familiar face, and he instantly recalled it being that one girl from the other day who somehow knew who he was.

As he quietly watched the ongoing situation between the gothic lolita chick and Noboru, he could only ponder on the girls identity as the duo cheerfully joked around with each other. It wasn't long before another boy bursted in, however he looked to be a patient who was also incapacitated by some other norm. The girl recognized him as a boy named Matthew who must of been a transfer student with that name. He then learned that the boy came from Australia, and if he could recall there were some interesting sights down there, but that wasn't important for the time being. However, it seemed this guy had something else on his mind right now, speaking about how he could get some of this magazines for Noboru or tell him the hot nurses shifts. Kami just stared at him with one of his eyebrows cocked up, shaking his head... However, it was made even worse when Rui became interested and seemingly encouraged him to talk about the nurses. This warranted a chuckle from him along with a facepalms with how this whole conundrum was turning out. However, the girl decided to play around with him and tease him, which brought out another giggle before he decided to jump into the fray with one of his comments.

""Hey, maybe he is just into older women, I mean there is nothing wrong with a guy going after older woman. I mean, if he is into that type of stuff, don't discourage him missy! My preferences though lie with girls around my age, and I've got my eye on one... But hey, to each of the I own, I mean it would be interesting to meet your forty year old girlfriend!""

Kami had a grin plastered on his face as he teased the boy. After that little sentiment of his, he finally learned that girls name which was Chiaki Nettu... The name see me familiar, but no bells were ringing in his head. Either way, at least he finally one who she was. As myriads of events transpired with Matthew being hauled away by a nurse, Kami feeling a bit bad for him. He was a new student, and he was already having a rough time as they did tease him. Maybe he would give the guy a visit if he could sometime later, but there were more pressing matters at hand in his opinion. As Rui introduced himself to Chiaki, he decided to Tak his leave somewhere else for the most part. Kami decided it was best to linger around a little bit longer and learn a bit about the girl and try and cheese Noboru up if he could. The boy eventually pushed himself up from his seat and pivoted around to face Chiaki, giving her a warm smile.

""Ah, so that's your name. We never really got to introduce ourselves the other day properly, but it's a pleasure to know who you are and meet you now. As you know, my name is Kaminari, but just call me Kami for short as most people do. I'm sorry that I had to go off the other day and couldn't stay long to chat... Anyways, how do you exactly know who I am? Apologies on it being on that subject as you called me out by my name Chiaki-san, and I'm interested in hiw you know me? Did a boy with glasses named Makoto tell you anything about me, or did you talk with Sachiko-chan or something? I'm just curious.""</div>"

	After he had gathered himself a bit and gotten back up onto his feet, Sato noticed an unfamiliar boy standing in front of him. The books he had just dropped were being held out to him, all gathered in a haphazard manner. Papers were mixed into all the wrong places, and it guaranteed an evening of reorganization. Sato shook his head though, for he found himself feeling rude, having just given a frown to this boy that bothered to clean up the mess he had made from tripping.

	Sato slipped his hands underneath the stack the student held out to him and pulled them towards himself. He tucked the books under his arm, just like he had done before the fall, and then extended his free hand out to the boy. “<font color=""skyblue"">Thanks, Sighard.</font>” He paused a bit, wincing at how he kinda flubbed up saying ‘Seighardt’. It took him a moment to continue, as he was unsure of what to say next. “<font color=""skyblue"">That was uh… ah, embarrassing. Thanks for picking up what I dropped. I’m Sato Hashimoto, a third year here at Warakuma High. Obviously.</font>” Just as he finished talking, he realized that his hand was rather… unappealing to shake, considering the torn skin revealing the tender flesh beneath it, and he momentarily withdrew it before sticking it out again for no reason.

	“<font color=""skyblue"">So, uh, you go here, right?</font>” It felt wrong to not make conversation, but it also felt increasingly stupid to pry about this random guy he’d never even seen before. “<font color=""skyblue"">Are you in any clubs or anything so far?

After a pause, she recalled back to the day when she was told that Noboru had first disappeared, he was looking for information and introduced himself has Kaminari something or other. Regardless she only knew him because Ayano had told her about him before. The first time they had met, Chiaki ignored him and walked off, she was far too busy and concerned to deal with him.

<font color=""#662d91"">Oh, you're that police boy! No no, I actually don't have a clue who you are sweetie, I just know of you. You know how it is, people talk and all that. So I'll just treat this as our first meeting!</font> Chiaki tilted her head to the side.

But not chan ether because we barely know each other.</font> Chiaki was unsure why she wasn't being her usual friendly self, it had to be the hospital, it made her feel on edge and uneasy. She apologised to the remaining boys. She couldn't stay much longer. She walled over to Noboru and whispered to him.
<font color=""#662d91"">(Hey, If he asks any questions about me, don't tell him about the idol stuff)

After the items were returned to the rightful owner, he winced at how his name was pronounced yet that was expected however, hence why he just used Sieg for the most part. So when Sato extended his hand Sieg extended his own to shake it but then saw that it was torn up a bit and hesitated a bit to shake it. The man seemed to notice as he withdrew it but then extended back out which made Sieg stare confusingly as he simply shook the man by the fingers instead. Sieg would have shook his hand, but he rather not irritate the guys wound, nor get the mans blood on himself.

Sato then opened up with a conversation line about if he went here, which again made Sieg stare somewhat confusingly at him, as he did leave the school, with the uniform on and such. <font color=""#aba000"">""It's fine.... accidents happen. I do attend this school hence my uniform and such. I am a third year just like you. Are you sure you're okay?

It was always like this, if he could spread his love for plays to anyone that asked, or in this case hinted at. Then that is exactly what he was going to do.

<font color=""#aba000"">""Why I am a part of the drama club, to me no such thing can pass the brilliance that the actors play their role. With the way they convey their characters personality's. All of it is simply magnificent! Alas the club doesn't meet today, so I was just going to go home and watch some plays on the internet. Anyway you are probably busy, so I'll head on home. You should get your hands some attention, don't want any infections now. Anyway I'll see you tomorrow.""</font> Sieghardt said adding a bow in for effect which made him chuckle as he waved goodbye, and went back to his most likely empty home besides for the occasional maid or two.</div>"

	After awkwardly shaking Sato’s hand and confirming that he did in fact attend Warakuma High, Sieg stopped to question if Sato was really okay, though Sato merely shook his head and ran a hand over the side of his neck. “<font color=""skyblue"">Yeah, I’m okay, seriously.</font>” The red-headed boy continued after his affirmation, going on to detail what club he was in at Sato’s asking of it. When he heard that this Sieghardt guy was a member of the drama club, Sato raised an eyebrow and began to focus on the boy’s words harder. Based on the way he talked, it wasn’t too farfetched to believe that someone like him would be a part of the drama club, where people like Leiko Hamada thrived.

	After saying his regards, Sieg stepped away to leave. “<font color=""skyblue"">Laters. I guess I’ll see you tomorrow too…</font>” Sato’s words trailed off as Sieg made his way presumably home, leaving the teen rather alone, in an uncomfortable way. There was an off-putting silence, and Sato merely stood there a while before sounds came from the nearby archery range. People were starting to leave the range, bunched in groups of friends. All the students were too far away to recognize beyond basic body shape, and it lead Sato to wonder where the people Sato knew where. Were they still in there, diligent enough to stay back and clean up? Though, either way, he was already gone to all of them and it made no sense to stay, so Sato turned on his heel and started walking back to his house.

	Upon arriving home, Sato threw his shoes to the side and scurried up the stairs and into his room, tossing the books he still managed to carry into the corner of the room. The boy took a few steps towards his bed before collapsing onto it, half his body on and the other holding itself up from the floor. Now that he had nothing else to feel, the weird burning feeling on his hand became more prominent and he recalled Sieg’s words. “<span class=""bb-i"">Get your hands some attention.</span>” Sato pushed himself up from the sheets with the base of his palm. “<span class=""bb-i"">Don’t want any infections now.</span>”

	Sato shuffled back out into the hall and over to the nearest sink. Upon fiddling with the tap, cool water spread over the dead skin and uprooted flesh beneath. It stung a tiny bit at first before turning into a smooth nothing. When the nothing became cold, Sato withdrew his hands and stopped the flow of water. As he made his way back to his room and onto his bed (making sure to close the door behind him), the teen went over tomorrow in his head. Classes as per usual and then Drama Club. While he had already attended a meeting already, it wasn’t a <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> meeting and he wondered they would get into the meat of things that early. Part of him hoped so, but another part felt a pang of regret for joining Drama. His thoughts on the topic continued until his eyes failed to keep open and his consciousness slowly faded until there was nothing but black.</div>"

The school bell rang as classes ended for the day, nothing awfully eventful. Noboru was still recovering but based on what they saw, he was probably going to be discharged sometime today after school. Kami and Rui received a message from Kazuki indicating they should meet again fairly soon and bring Noboru along, likely tomorrow. It was fairly soon, but maybe it was a good idea to get this out of the way. Noboru did just get his Persona after all, so he would be a boon.

In any case, club activities went as normal, or people simply went home or did what they pleased. It was still early in the term, and everyone was looking forward to the Golden Week coming in two weeks, so this was going to be a rather laid back month.

<span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada: Warakuma High-Drama Club Meeting Room</span>

The door to the meeting room creaked painfully as Leiko opened it ajar, using the wooden doorstopper hidden by the side of the wall to nudge it against the edge with her foot. 
Unsurprisingly, she was the first to arrive as soon as classes had ended, since the other students were likely taking their time chatting to their classmates about the day's events. Not that the day had been particularly memorable in the least; the day's topics either seemed to revolve around Noboru Yamomoto's consecutive absence, or the approaching Golden Week, which would spell some relief for the students of Warakuma High. Leiko was particularly looking forward to Golden Week but mainly for her own reasons. Namely, her father would finally be returning to Warakuma from his business trip.

Clapping her hands together in a show of motivation, Leiko glanced around the room with a subtle hint of distaste. She really disliked the amount of space that was given to the culture clubs, and considering her impressive roster of new members this year, it was a concern that they wouldn't be able to have enough space for the practical sessions. She had managed to avoid the problem with their ice-breaker meeting last time, but she really wanted the flexibility to practice different forms of expression. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, one just has to make do.</span>

Letting out a small puff of air, Leiko rolled her sleeves and got to work.

---

A steady stream of students started to enter the room by the time that Leiko was done rearranging the tables and chairs against the walls, and whilst it was a little improvement, it was an improvement just the same. Glancing over at the gathering students, Leiko's gaze stopped briefly at the expectant sight of Masatomo, resisting the urge to roll her eyes at the slimy grin on his face before focusing on the task at hand. <font color=""#fff200"">""Good afternoon.""</font> Leiko's words cut sharply through the chatter that still echoed in the room, her stance assuming that of what she expected would exude complete authority. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'm glad to see some familiar faces returning from Thursday. Although I can't help but notice some absences as well...""</font> Her voice trailed off in disapproval as her eyes flickered across the room before returning to a general focus on the group. <font color=""#fff200"">""So, picking up from our last session, we introduced ourselves in a more informal manner, and I gave you all a rough schedule of what to expect for the coming year. As earlier stated, we'll be focusing on teambuilding and character skills for the first few weeks. Then...we move onto casting and rehearsing for this year's school play.""</font> Giving a solemn nod to herself for a moment, Leiko continued, <font color=""#fff200"">""As I'm sure you're all aware, the...gender ratio of the club is somewhat skewed this year, so I'd like to remind everyone to keep open-minded. Anyone who has any difficulty with that can speak to me in private of course.""</font> Despite what could be seen as a warm invitation was clearly not the case by the cold smile curling Leiko's lips. <font color=""#fff200"">""Anyway, moving on from that...""</font>

Leiko turned around and retrieved stacks of papers laid out from one of the pushed-aside tables before handing them to one of the first years to pass them around the forming half circle of students. <font color=""#fff200"">""Today we'll be working on dialogue. During auditions, we focused purely on the relationship between the actor, the audience, and the stage. But it's important to count on chemistry with our fellow performers as well, or the whole show will fall apart.""</font> She tapped the sheet of paper in her hands with the tips of her fingers as her eyes scanned across the room expectantly. <font color=""#fff200"">""So, before you all finish getting into pairs, are there any volunteers for a practice demonstration?""</font> 

There was a clear sense of hesitation spreading across the room, and it wasn't difficult to understand why, considering Leiko's upfront, and somewhat intense attitude towards the arts. But as long as Leiko wasn't forced to ask <span class=""bb-b"">Masatomo</span> to act alongside her at this particular moment, she could live to be a little less...harsh, she supposed.</div>"

Much like he predicted, as soon as classes finished his math teacher dragged him to the main office and began to lecture him in great detail on the steps to figure out the problem. She found it to be no excuse to ever write fish as an answer, even as a joke. Although he was still curious as to why he wrote fish he didn't intend to do it on purpose. So he spent a few minutes being lectured on how to do these ""simple steps"", and then he was cleared to leave in which he took no time out all booking it out of the office.

He kept up this pace all the way to the drama club where it looks like he just entered on Leiko finishing arranging the room around, most likely to accommodate all the new people. So seeing that he was for the most part on time, he waited for the rest of the people to show, so she could begin. It started off how he expected a greeting followed by what they covered and will cover, with hints that their were quite a bit of males so some would most likely be playing female roles. Sieghardt didn't truly mind this, he was sure he could play a believable female if he was chosen to be one. Leiko then handed a first year a stack of papers which they then pass around, with Leiko saying how they would be working on dialogue and how that chemistry with our fellow performers should also be something to count on. This could be considered true, not many people would want to act with someone they dislike after all.

She would then ask for any volunteers for a practice demonstration, he would have went first but he waited a few seconds to see if anyone else would be willing to accept the offer. So when it seemed that no one was going to step forward, Seig smiled and raised his hand as he stood forward a bit. He also wanted to do this to see just if the comparisons people make out that him and Leiko are to similar when it came to the drama club were true. <font color=""#aba000"">""If you don't mind, I'll be willing to demonstrate. I promise not to shame you.""</font> Sieg spoke with one of those caring smiles, while he himself was much more curious.</div>"

Tuesday, April 14th, 2015 
After School

After debating whether she should head to the clubroom or not, Akane eventually gave in and decided to take the day off. There's no sense forcing her way out of her slump, if she keeps at it, it'll probably get worse. <span class=""bb-i"">When's the last time I actually took a day off anyway?</span> Lost in thought as she walked towards the rear entrance, which she does time from time to avoid the swarm of people at the main gates, a barrage of screams and yells snaps her back to reality.

Breaking into a run, Akane dashed towards the direction of the sounds when she saw a group of guys, 4 in total, have a pair of girls trapped in a corner. 2 of the guys were third years, 1 in 2nd year and the other definitely looks like a first year. <span class=""bb-i"">I think that one's in the class next to mine</span>, Akane observed as she glanced at the 2nd year. Though, one of the guys, the 1st year, didn't seem all too comfortable with all this as he tried to get his seniors to stop. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Miura-Senpai, please stop. This is wrong, we shouldn't be doing this.""</span></font> the first year pleaded as he tried to pull the third year, Kenji Miura, a washout from one of the sport Clubs, away from the girls.

Turning towards the first year, <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Quit your bitching Suzuki.""</span></font> Mirua said as hit the first year and shoved him back. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""If you want to go back to being a punching back, be my guest.""</span></font> He grinned as the other two chuckled like typical minions. Too afraid too say anything in reply, Ren Suzuki, the first year, hung his head in submission and the guys laughed once more before turning back towards the girls. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""As I was saying,""</span></font> Miura resumed. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""You should really re-consider 'hanging' out with us. We're being nice here, it's only good manners to accept out 'invitation' Heh""</span></font> He finished as his eyes moved up and down their bodies as he began leaning in closer.

Unable to take it anymore, <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hey!!""</span></font> She yelled at Miura. Apparently it wasn't enough to draw his attention so she yelled again. Annoyed, Miura turned his head. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""The Fuc-""</span></font> He didn't get to finish as a school bag intercepted his face, knocking him to the ground as she charged in. He was a little slow to get up. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Y-you bitch!!! What in the hell did you put in that bag??!?!?""</span></font> Answer: More than a few dozen mangas and note books. No mangas were harmed in the creation of this scene. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""The fuck you guys standing around for?! Get Her!!""</span></font> Miura shouted at his lackeys. 

He looked for Suzuki but he wasn't to be seen nor was the girls. Using Akane's interference, Suzuki took the time to get the girls away from there. Though, while he did manage to get a good distance away from him, Suzuki was still within eye shot. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""You fucking little shit...""</span></font> he cursed. Turning back towards his goons, <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""You take care of her, I'll handle the rest.""</span></font> With that order he got off the ground and chased after Suzuki and the two girls. Just you wait you bitch, You'll get yours soon.

Not long after Kenji fled, Akane made short work of his thugs with a variety of punches and kicks. It was quite pitiful, they might look strong but they were quite slow. No coordination, they either never got into any fights or they went after pretty weak people. Which makes sense. She thought as she kicked them as she stood over them. Not wasting anymore time, she took off after Kenji

<font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Get Back Here!!""</span></font>

After School

Walking down the hallway, he catches some movement from down below, near the rear entrance. Stopping to get a better look, he saw a girl launching her school bag and it catching the guy right in the face the moment he turned around. Catching many off guard at how sudden it was, Akira broke out into a laugh. From the looks of it, it seemed those pieces of shit were at it again. <span class=""bb-i"">Bullying a bunch of first years, especially a pair of girls.</span> <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""They never learn, talk about pathetic.""</span></font> he said to no one in particular.

<span class=""bb-i"">Kenji Miura...</span> Like Akira, he also used to be part of the Archery Club. He was one of the guys that sided with the seniors during that ugly incident when they were both still first years. Akira remembers it fondly as he turned Kenji's face black and blue during the ordeal. Sometime afterwards he himself had a falling out with the Archery Club. Though, Akira doesn't know when but he honestly doesn't give a shit. Watching as Kenji fled, his eyes turned back towards the girl who delivering crushing blows to 2 guys that were left behind. Though, the fight didn't last all that long and soon she took off herself.

<font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""They're not going to live this one down.""</span></font> referring to Kenji and his men, Akira laughed as he turned away. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, it helped past the time.</span> With that, he made his way towards the Main entrance.</div>"

	When class ended, Sato found himself without an idea as to what he should do. No Archery, he didn’t feel like getting together with any friends, and he didn’t feel like loafing around his home for the rest of the day. It took him a few moments, as he leaned back into his seat, to remember that Drama meets on Tuesdays, and the day was in fact Tuesday. The teen groaned in response to the recollection, but in truth, there wasn’t anything he’d rather be doing. It was… refreshing, in an odd sort of way, to get into the Drama crowd. Hamada was certainly an interesting leader, the actual content of the club was enjoyable, and the people he met there were decent enough.

	Sato rose from his seats, collected his items together into a single pile, and made his way out from the classroom and over to the auditorium where Drama met.

	<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">|-----|</span></div>

	Upon entering, Sato immediately noticed that the room felt more spacious due to the tables and chairs stacked and placed next to the walls. Hamada had just finished putting up the final chair when Sato had walked in, and the boy soon found a comfortable spot in the slowly increasing crowd of people in the middle of it. Some familiar faces came in as well— the most recognizable being the recently-met Sieghardt. He considered going over and talking to the red-head, but he decided against it when Leiko Hamada begun to talk to club’s entirety.

	A stack of papers was passed around, and as people circulated the sheets throughout themselves, Hamada went on to recap the last meeting’s events and to explain what she was intending to get accomplished in the next while, as well as what they were to be doing in a little bit. ‘<span class=""bb-i"">Working on dialogue</span>,” as she said. What ‘dialogue’ was actually supposed to mean in this kind of context, Sato had no clue, but he figured it to be unimportant. Hopefully someone would explain or the demonstration Hamada was about to give would give some good perspective on what it was going to specifically be.

	Sato considered volunteering to be Hamada’s partner in this demonstration, but he decided that his lack of both ability and knowledge of what’d he’d be doing seemed like it’d be detrimental to the purpose of a demonstration. As in, that it wouldn’t demonstrate things well. Luckily, someone volunteered after a lengthy silence, and that person was Sieghardt. Drama queen with an equally as dramatic queen. Sato took a more comfortable stance as a smile formed on his lips. It was sure to be an interesting duo to be sure.</div>"

April 14th, 2015</span>

Alexei walked out of school bored. The lectures today had hardly been interesting, adding to it the fact that Sagat was absent and Inoue still weak from her illness. It meant that their club went without practice again. As he walked out alongside Inoue, a boy bumped into him. He turned to look at the fallen boy and soon he was scrambling to get up, huffing and panting heavily. The tears in his eyes meant that Alexei wasnt the cause of his distress.

As he offered his hand to help him get up, two young girls also joined him. Equally distressed. Alexei was alarmed to say the least, he usually kept a low profile and stayed away from all the gangs of delinquents around the school. They weren't worth his time and nor were their victims. But, now that he had seen the kind of prey they usually bullied, he felt a little ashamed of his ignorance.

Meanwhile, Inoue was patting both the girls and offered her water to them. Visibly calmed, they soon shrieked as a loud shout interupted their recuperation.

<font color=""#f9ad81""><span class=""bb-b"">""Get back here!! you piece of shit!!""</span></font> came a hoarse croak. The owner of the voice also soon presented himself upon the scene. As he saw Inoue stand along with the girls, color seemed to drain out of his face. Meanwhile, the girls grabbed Inoue like little kittens. Scared of the man in question. Alexei was surprised how a weakling like that boy could invoke such reactions from the weak-willed.

Before he could speak a word though, a phlegm filled threat escaped from Inoue <font color=""#a187be""><span class=""bb-b"">""Miura!! you worthless pile of turd. Still up to your perverse ways.""</span></font> before she coughed heavily, shaking weakly. 

Perhaps, Alexei had an invisible presence but this Miura totally ignored him and instead walked confidently towards the group with a cocky smile, his previous fear all but washed away.

<font color=""#fdc68a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Looks like you aren't strong today, demon!!""</span></font> he said with a sneer, staring at Inoue.

<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Perhaps, you can take care of the kids, Inoue.""</span></font> Alexei said gently as he patted Inoue's back to calm her coughing fit. Inoue sensed the seriousness in his tone to not say a word. Alexei pulled up his cuffs to display powerful forearms as he took a few steps towards Miura, whose face had reverted to its pale color.

Another shout broke the atmosphere though. It's owner surprising Alexei a bit. Another run in it seemed. He was curious as to how this will turn out. So he decided to let him deal with Akane who really seemed pissed.

His smile faded as he remembered the day today. Hamada won't be happy, the second impression is as bad as the first it seemed.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Inoue, sorry I have to go. Will see you later. Bye!""</font></span> before he ran towards the drama room. He wished he wasn't that late. But not seeing how it played out also left him in two minds. Maybe Inoue and Akane can handle the weakling on their own.

--

He reached the room in record time before bumping slightly into the door.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Huh..Hope, I wasn't too late.""</font></span> he said to no one in particular. A bit winded with the sudden sprint.</div>"

There was a stretched silence that followed, and Leiko was starting to feel uneasy when she glimpsed the corners of Masatomo's mouth twitching. He was either going to openly mock her or volunteer...and she <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> wasn't keen on the latter.

Fortunately, another male spoke up in the nick of time, and Leiko's attention was immediately drawn to the owner of the voice. <span class=""bb-i"">Ahh...isn't that Sieghardt Kasumi?</span> Leiko mulled to herself as her eyes raked over his thin figure. He was already in the Drama Club before the auditions, so Leiko couldn't really recall his style or acting ability. Rumour spread quickly in the town of Warakuma however, and it occurred to Leiko that he was known to have a 'personality disorder' of some description, at least according to the students. Well, Leiko was certainly not inclined to judge-

<font color=""#aba000"">""I promise not to shame you.""</font>
<span class=""bb-b"">What.</span>

Leiko blinked, almost slightly taken aback by his words as he shot her a carefree smile, script in hand. Was he serious? He would imply that he could have the capacity to put <span class=""bb-i"">Leiko Hamada</span>, Club President and star of the arts, to shame? 

<span class=""bb-i"">Well.</span>
<font color=""yellow"">""I see. Well, in that case, please step forward, Kasumi-san,""</font> Leiko smiled, a sharpened edge to her tone that made several of the club members share wary looks to one another. <font color=""yellow"">""And I assure you that shaming me in my acting prowess is a nigh impossibility. But still...I welcome you to try.""</font> Leiko stepped to the side, allowing Kasumi ample room to stand alongside her whilst the others grouped together and watched on at the scene that was about to unfold. 

Leiko cleared her throat promptly before flicking to a specific page of her script, her eyes downcast to a particular passage. <font color=""yellow"">""Hmm, I believe this one will do. Now you will assume the role of-""</font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Bang!</span> The sound of something-or rather, someone- hitting the door alerted the entirety of the club, Leiko's expression becoming slightly irked at the sight of a panting Alexei Dragunov standing before them. <font color=""yellow"">""Your timing was less than impeccable, as always. But no matter. Stop wasting time and join the others,""</font> Leiko said dryly before shaking her head with a weary sigh. <font color=""yellow"">""I have lost all train of thought now...where was I...oh, yes!""</font> She snapped her fingers and looked over to Kasumi. <font color=""yellow"">""Our practice demonstration. Please, turn to page 32 and give yourself a moment to familiarise yourself with the text.""</font> As she said this, Leiko set aside her own, looking at her partner intensely as a different aura began to resonate in her very being. The stern, bold expression of Leiko Hamada quickly melted away to an unsettling look of fear and trepidation as she regarded the male before her with a look of helplessness and despair. <font color=""yellow"">""Ismene, mine sister, dearest one-""</font>

Hushed giggling spread across the room as it became apparent that not only Sieghardt's role was a female like earlier alluded, but that both would be sharing a close sisterly bond with one another. Not that half the group understood the words that spilled from Leiko's lips, but it was amusing to them nonetheless.

Leiko, meanwhile, did not break her character once, the essence of Antigone taking hold of her soul as she locked eyes with the fellow performer. <font color=""yellow"">""Knowst thou? Hast heard? Or is it hidden from thee, the doom of foes that comes upon thy friends?""</font>

At this stage of the play, the grief-stricken Antigone was emotionally reliant on her focused, law-abiding sister to guide her and protect her. Their relationship became more complicated as the story progressed, but the excerpt had just enough character depth to challenge her partner's knowledge on classic theatre, not to mention his abilities to work out of his comfort zone. As she waited for his response, Leiko considered whether she had pushed him (and the growingly bemused audience) too far with such a strange choice of text, but only time would tell.</div>"

Another night out, aimlessly wandering around, hoping to find any sort of clue of the missing boy. The lack of sleep and decent food was taking it's toll on Toma -- his mood swung from calm to furious to apathetic, wondering why he was even still trying.

His phone had died hours ago, before he'd been able to let his mother know he wouldn't be coming home again. His muddled brain somehow decided that that was okay, that his parents would assume he was staying at a friends house again or something.

Dragging his feet, he stumbled over nothing again, this time taking a fall. He somehow reacted fast enough to get his hands under him, but not fast enough to break the fall properly. He landed hard on his right palm, causing his hand to bend back farther than it should. It took a second for the pain to register, but when it did, Toma certainly felt it.

Letting out a string of curses, he quickly picked himself up, cradling his wrist. Touching it gingerly, he decided it wasn't broken -- he'd broken more than his fair share of bones in his lifetime, and it hurt a hell of a lot more than this. It was definitely sprained, though.

After cursing a little more, he noticed the sun was peeking over the horizon. Realizing it was Monday, he began making his way home to get ready for school, despite his sleep-deprived state.


<span class=""bb-b"">Monday, April 13th</span>

He wasn't sure how he was expecting his parents to react. Or rather, he hadn't even thought about it. They reacted poorly. Unsurprisingly, he supposed.

His mother came running to the door when he walked in, face tear-stained and tired. She gave a small yelp of relieved happiness and hugged her son tight, asking him where he'd been and if he was okay. Toma mumbled in response, saying he was fine.

Then came the heavier footsteps. Angrier footsteps. Toma gently pushed his mother away and face his father, who was stalking towards him, furious.

The man, who was shorter than Toma, but still above average in height, grabbed his son's collar. ""Where the hell have you been?"" he yelled. ""Do you realize how much you worried your mother?""

Toma stared into his father's angry eyes, his own dead and tired. He could have explained himself; he could have said he had spent the night looking for his friend's missing brother. He would have gotten off easily -- his father might have told him that that was stupid, and he could have gone about helping in a better, less dangerous way; his mother would tell him that he really should have let them know. A slap on the wrist, but then probably some praise for taking action and trying to help people.

But he didn't. Instead, he offered a weak excuse, one that didn't even answer the questions being thrown at him.

<font color=""#f26522"">""My phone died.""</font>

His father's brow furrowed even further, and he pushed Toma back, raising his fist and taking a swing at the boy. 

Toma couldn't help but flinch slightly, but he made no attempt to block. After all, he agreed with his father -- this was what he deserved for acting as he did.

The next thing he knew, he was on the ground, seeing stars. His first thought wasn't about the pain, or the shock of his own father hitting him -- something that had never happened before -- but of how comfy the floor felt. He was sure he'd fall asleep the moment he closed his eyes. Someone knelt over him, probably his mother. Slowly, he felt himself succumb to sleep.

He was brought back to his senses by a wave a nausea. All the junk he had eaten, the world spinning around him, and his lack of sleep came together.

Pushing himself up with his good hand, he raced to the washroom and vomited. At some point, his mother came in, knelt next to him, and began rubbing his back.

After it had passed, she went to get him some water, and he sat alone, ice pack covering his cheekbone to suppress the swelling, though nothing could be done about his wrist at the moment.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#f26522"">It hasn't been my weekend, I guess,</font></span> he thought with a smile.

And it wasn't over yet. He didn't know if Noboru was still missing.

His mother protested when she realized he had decided to go to school, but he convinced her that he'd be fine.

---

At school, he met up with Aiko, who told him that Noboru had been found. Immensely relieved, he sort of shut down for the rest of the day. He was awake, but nothing around him registered -- he had zero clue what his classes had gone over or what homework was assigned. That was fine, he didn't really care at this point. He'd catch up later.

Whenever his face and wrist came up, he'd said, with a small smile and laugh, that he'd accidentally ran into a drunk and paid the price.

---

When he got home at after school, Toma noted his father's closed door, as it always was. Apparently nothing had changed. The exhausted boy walked right past and up to his room, collapsing onto his bed and falling asleep, fully clothed.


<span class=""bb-b"">Toma Tanaka - Tuesday, April 14th</span>

Toma woke up with a fierce hunger and a throbbing face. He managed to get ready and raid the pantries, despite the fact that his good hand was out of commission. It was pretty incredible how much better twelve hours of sleep made him feel. He was definitely still feeling <span class=""bb-i"">off</span> and tired, but at least he had enough coordination to get by with one hand. It was a huge improvement compared to tripping over his own feet.


<span class=""bb-b"">After School</span>

Make himself a paltry breakfast with his left hand was one thing, trying to take notes with it was a much harder task. So hard, in fact, that he quickly completely gave up and instead tried his best to pay better attention. With a sigh, he resigned himself to the fact that he wouldn't do great on test question involving what the class was learning this week.

After the bell had gone, he threw his stuff together and rubbed his eyes. Turning to Aiko, he gave his friend a small grin. <font color=""#f26522"">""We've got Track today. Think you're up for it?""</font> Considering that it was Aiko's own brother who had been missing, Toma figured he'd be just as exhausted.</div>"

==~==

It had suddenly occurred to Mako how ridiculous of a concept it was that he hadn't participated in such a marvelous distraction as the Drama club until now, and he came to school that day with the full intent of rectifying such an oversight. Of course, being that he was Mako Moritomi and prone to other distractions aside from those he was intent on, including his own admittedly terrible sense of direction, he now found himself in the delightfully awkward position of being late to practice on the first day that he intended to make his entrance.

<font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Ah, well. There is a precedent for being ""fashionably late,"" after all. And I am</span> nothing <span class=""bb-i"">if not fashionable. For a certain definition of the word, anyway.</span></font> 

Mako smiled as he neared the auditorium. He was rather happy he had this idea, as it not only gave him a reason to explore the school a bit more, but also led him to an activity that would enable his commitment to spectacle. And he <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> give them a spectacle, for certain. After all, it wasn't as though he didn't have experience to draw on for this sort of thing...

Squaring his shoulders, Mako arrived at the rather distinctive double doors to the auditorium, and, smiling widely, opened them carefully, hopefully not interrupting anything significant. He glanced over the assembled students, then walked in, carefully closing the doors behind him, and waited for his turn to address the individuals within.</div>"

It was mostly practice today it seems, and doing some excerpts out of other plays as part of it. Rui watched intently, as well, he was here for Drama club after all. His Expression had improved a bit. It appears this club was quickly becoming popular, so he began to expect that during the school festival they could do a rather big play, or even two if time and effort allows. He felt something sift behind him, and turned, to see another student entering the room... He didn't recognize him, maybe a prospective new member...? He strode over to the student, and asked him directly.

<font color=""slategray"">""I don't recognize you, are you here to join?""</font>, his question was blunt. He wouldn't really be able to help with actually joining, he'd have to wait until Leiko or some-other was done.</div>"
11038,Persona - The True Self,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76093-persona-the-true-self,"['Large Group', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'School']",2015-02-19 04:06:00,Oblivion666,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Sieg Kasumi: Warakuma High-Drama Club Meeting Room</span></div>

With the tone in her voice and the looks other students gave one another, he knew that she took his comment a little personally. This made him chuckle as he was told to step forward, while being given clear information that shaming her would be virtually impossible to do. That was fine for him, he always liked doing the impossible. So when the others made room Sieg stood next to her, giving her a small smile as he looked down at her. She was about to give him his role, but just at that second a man burst through the doors which caused Sieg to look over at the man, before his attention returned back to Leiko.

As she gave the man orders on what to do, she instructed Sieg to turn to page 32 and memorize the lines, so he couldn't help but chuckle as he read it, and as he lowered it and set it aside she acted out the first line, quite wonderfully. This would however indicate Sieg was playing a woman. So as she poke, he heard the others giggling with each other while he himself laughed in his mind. Wondering if she truly thought that him playing a female bothered him. He played a female before and he most certainly can do it again. He did have to give her credit though, she portrayed the character wonderfully .

So when she finished her lines, Sieg could see her conviction just by looking at her eyes. His own look would change to one of a caring sibling, one that had nothing but the best intentions in mind for their younger sibling. What would come off as most surprising, is how Sieg was able to change is low voice into a higher one more fitting of a female. <font color=""#598527"">"" No tidings of our friends, Antigone.""</font>

Although the giggling would intensify with Sieg's now girly voice it didn't seem to distract him one little bit. Through it all however he didn't break character once, becoming one with Ismene, which others might question just how far he would take his love for the theater. None of those matter bothered him however, if he loved something then he was most certainly going to show it. Even if it might go overboard at times. <font color=""#598527"">""And since in this last night the Argive host has left the field, I nothing further know, nor brightening fortune, nor increasing gloom.""</font>

As his line would end he would look at Leiko dead in the eyes and give one of those smiles of his. The one he gave when he promised not to shame her. The meaning behind it saying that he could play a girls part just as well as a males. He wasn't one to normally initiate a challenge, but when it comes from someone who also loves the art, it just seems right to be a little challenging.</div>"

Mako started slightly as the student who approached him suddenly jumped into his interrogation without so much as a by-your-leave. Mako raised an eyebrow at the sudden intrusion, but eventually decided he couldn't hold such a thing against the black-haired boy- he was much an intruder himself, considering the circumstances. And so, plastering on his most winning of smiles, Mako decided to demonstrate to Black-Hair-san exactly why he was here.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""Why, quite correct, my friend. And indeed, who wouldn't want to join such a fine institution as that of the theatre, anyway? Such a lovely tradition, it is- dates all the way back to the ancient Greeks, I believe. It has always fascinated me, such a subject. Acting is one of my many passions. Perhaps my utmost! Why, sometimes I am so passionate about it that I scarce know when I am acting and when I am simply... normal? For a certain definition of <span class=""bb-i"">normal,</span> anyway.""</font>

Mako paused, glancing at what was likely a bemused expression on Black-Hair-san's face for the briefest of moments before returning to his steamroller-esque presence.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""...But enough chit-chat, I am being rude. I am Mako, Mako Moritomi. Pleased to meet you, Mr...?""</font></div>"

Rui kept a slightly eager face, until it became clear this guy was going to talk for a bit longer than necessary and thus the expression turned back to neutral as he watched with an unchanging face. Once he was done and moving onto introductions... He hoped this kid did not disturb what was happening right now too much, it looks like the Drama club was going to be quite populated this year.

<font color=""slategray"">""Rui Shinichi... I am a member of this club. You seem a bit over-enthusiastic... Although maybe tone down because practice is going on right now""</font>, he pointed out.

When she finally caught up to Miura, she could see that someone else decided to get involved in the matter. Another surprise was the one who did, was with Alexei. Man, we sure do run into each other a lot, don't we? She thought to herself. Well, she looks strong enough so I'm sure the three of them will be safe. ""Well then,"" she said to herself as she turned turns Inoue. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""If you can, can you watch over those 3? I'll handle him, Me and him need to talk.""</span></font>

Cracking her knuckles as she turns towards Miura. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Kenji Miura, one who was kicked out of the Archery Club for various offenses...So these are the kinds of things you've been doing since you were kicked to the curb. Pathetic. I'd advise you to leave those 3 alone and get lost. Oh,""</span></font> she glared at him before adding with a smile. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Just so you know, your friends won't be able to make it. So do give up peacefully.""</span></font> As Miura turned and looked at her, he was shocked. <span class=""bb-i"">That bitch took out Urahara and Tachibana?! Useless!</span> 

After listening to her go on and on, he could feel his blood boil up in rage. Not only was he being looked down upon and insulted by two girls but the bitch had he nerve to bring up his dismissal. <span class=""bb-i"">Tch, I have to do everything myself.</span> <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Arrogant bitch, I'll show you to respect your seniors...""</span></font>Grinding his teeth, he lunges at Akane. Unperturbed, Akane stares right at Inoue and waves her off, motioning to her that she's fine and doesn't need to get involved. Missing with his first swing, <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Heh, dumbass, got you.""</span></font> Pulling out a metal rod from his pocket and swings at her while in a crouching position, he takes her by surprise...or so he thinks. 

Making a step back, she makes a sweeping kick, causing him to stumble and loose his momentum. Taking advantage of this, Akane grabs the hand with the metal rod, twists it around and throws him over her shoulder. As she pinned her down, it seems his cronies recovered and made it to the scene. Thinking they wanted more, she was a bit surprised they hesitated and kept their distance. Noticing that they didn't intend to fight, she picks up Miura and shoves him into them. As she gives them a final warning. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Stay away from those 3 or I won't take it easy on you.""</span></font> As a crowd gathered around, he glared at Akane before spitting on the ground and taking off.

Heading over towards the three, she makes sure that they are alright. As the three confirmed that they were alright, they gave their thanks to Inoue and Akane before taking their leave. Watching them leave she turned towards Inoue. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Thank you for intercepting him and keeping them safe. I think I ran enough for one day.""</span></font> she laughed before offering her hand. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm Akane Hanazawa from 2-2""</span></font></div>"

	When she saw Akira approaching, Mika waved at hand at him just to signal her position to him. Though, it didn’t matter much, as she quickly grew tired of waiting for someone who was walking <span class=""bb-i"">so slowly</span> to come over to her and simply ran over to the boy. She chastised herself for being so eager however and forced a more stoic expression onto her face as she stood in front of the black-haired boy. Her fingers found their ways onto the straps of the bag she dangled from her shoulder.

	“I’ve been waiting for almost seven minutes now, Akira!” She exclaimed, instantly losing the cool she had mustered just moments ago. “Punctuality is important in a guy, you know. Now… I’ve invited someone to this outing. They’ll be meeting us at the store.” Mika took a few quick steps towards the steps leading away from the school, but quickly turned back around. “We never agreed on any rules, so you don’t mind, right?”

	The highschool girl took off before the boy could respond, only waiting for him to catch up when she got to the edge of the street.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[-----]</span></div>
	The shopping district was populated mostly by highschool students, having just gotten off from their classes as well. Mika and Akira found themselves waiting outside of some café Mika had only been to once several years ago. The mystery person had yet to show up, and it frustrated Mika enough that she felt the need to vent the thoughts to Akira. She didn’t feel like he’d care about his thoughts on how <span class=""bb-i"">he never shows up on time</span> and that <span class=""bb-i"">he doesn’t even thank me</span>. Though, as soon as she saw her expected guest, Mika instantly shut up and waved her cast-covered hand out so that he’d see where they were.

	Tragically, Rokoru did not return the positive energy Mika radiated. Likely due to the presence of Akira Kirigakure. Forgetting to mention that Akira would be there was the only way to get Rokoru to even show up. The boy turned almost 180<sup>o</sup> to leave, but Mika surged out and tugged his wrist back to get him to stay. He groaned, and followed the shorter girl back over to where she left Akira.

	“Meet our exciting third wheel for the day!” She moved her hand beneath the writing on Rokoru’s grey t-shirt. “Notice the clever and funny print on the subject’s clothing. Truly magnificent!” With a snorty giggle, she hopped back closer to Akira. Rokoru folded his arms over his chest like he usually did when he disapproved of something, covering the text that went over his shirt seemingly on purpose. “So, what do you guys want? For drinks? They’re obviously on me.”</div>"

Inoue could only waved weakly at the foreigner as he took off on some urgent chore. Se wanted to know a bit more of the enigma that was Alexei Dragunov. It was like she knew nothing about the boy, he always held this plain expression that hid well what lay underneath. Though, as she felt some clinging to her shirt, she realized that she may have phased out for a moment. Seeing a younger student appear on the scene, Alexei had apparently been convinced enough of her ability that he left Inoue in charge.

The same was repeated by the girl shortly thereafter. The confidence with which she berated Kenji meant that she hid her talent for fighting rather well under that plain exterior. The girls no longer were shaking from Kenji's presence and a short crowd had also gathered around to see the ruckus. Should Miura lose now, his rep would take a serious hit and his projected superiority would also crumble. Inoue knew that he wasn't much of a threat to any of the serious ones in the school. 

Those thugs from Kendo club were too hard for him to touch. The Judo and Karate club were too skilled to be taken down and the girls at Gymnastics and Swimming club were also rather feisty. So with a loss here, his target crowd will also gain in confidence of responding to his threats. Sensing this, Miura stepped forward, a vain smirk plastered on his face and cockiness evident in his body-language. 

Just then, the girl threw a barb. A line that lay bare all that was to crush the terror of Kenji Miura. A testament to his weakness, this seemed to put Miura in a frenzy as he charged the girl, intent on fighting dirty from the start. Inoue thought of intervening, surely even with weakness, she had enough juice to bring him down.

But, surprisingly, the girl responded like a seasoned veteran. Keeping her body relaxed and stepping out of range before stepping forward in a dash and using his momentum to throw him over her shoulder in one smooth motion. Blowing the air out of him in one blow. The form looked freestyle but had its base in Judo, especially the one taught in the Tokyo region. The movements were rough but the fluidity was vaguely there. A smile crept to Inoue's face as she witnessed the whole scene as the crowd was pretty much shocked into silence.

The girl in with a movement had established to key things. First, that Kenji Miura was finished and second, that she is not to be trifled with. The whimpering girls were silent in that moment but kudos to Miura that despite been swatted like a measly fly and wiped out, he still held some of that brash cockiness about him.

The girl then turned towards Inoue and introduced herself. Inoue smiled and grabbed her by the shoulders

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">""Matsuhita Inoue, Class 3-3. You should join our MMA club. I'll surely put in a word for you. We can use someone like you to even out the scales.

she paused for a bit as she coughed heavily.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#92278f"">""I'm sure Kenji is not foolish enough to attack me alone. So I didn't do much. It's thanks to you that these guys are saved.""</font></span> She patted the heads of the girls as she gave a measuring look to the boy, who wasn't the ideal protector but had done well enough. She looked at him and smiled but said nothing.</div>"

Perhaps I did take that display a little too far...

He nodded, then turned toward the other boy.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""I understand my display was rather... eccentric,""</font> he said, much quieter this time, though his monologue hadn't been that loud, either. <font color=""#0076a3"">""I am given to understand that I have a habit of using four words where one would do.

As soon as the boy Mako had calmed down, albeit despite admitting to overtalking, still overtalked a little... Rui began to form his own response. The people around them didn't seem to mind too much, but they noticed it. Fortunately he did not disturb the practice happening, though someone may have at least noticed him.

Smiling, the girl grabbed her shoulders and introduced herself. It was like one of those typical scenes you'd find in a manga or anime where you have that overly energetic character whose all smiles and places their hands on them before making the main character an offer. Sure enough, the scene is proven true as Akane gets embarrassed and simply laughs awkwardly in response. No matter how many times she finds herself in a situation where her actions or such are praised, she can't get used to it. As if it never feels real or if its just simply undeserving. After going silent after thinking that, she calms down and returns to normal.

<font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Class 3-3? Ah, So you're my senpai... I do apologize if I was rude,""</span></font> She laughs before continuing <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""The MMA Club, huh? I've never really thought about joining another before....Well, there was the kendo club with my love of swords and the like but I could never catch them....Hmm....You know what? I'll take you up on that offer.""</span></font> She smiles before asking when the club usually meets. Inoue has been coughing heavily and while Akane is tempted to ask whats up, she decides it would be best if she didn't. 

Instead, she turned and said, <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Cowards like him tend to flock in packs and never rely on their own strength, ordering around others so they wouldn't get their own hands dirty. Quite shameful. I do apologize for taking away your chance to pummel him into the ground, Senpai.""</span></font> she laughed before continuing ""Though, I'm sure it's not the last we've seen of him, that's for sure."" Saying her goodbyes, she waves and takes her leave.

As he left the school and approached the front gate, he spotted Mika, as agreed. While noticing her, he kept at his pace and continued walking slowly towards her. Mika, having grown tired of waiting, ran up to him and began complaining to him about being late. ""Yea, Yea...."" Despite her reactions she seemed strangely excited for some reason as Akira grinned. Just as he was going to tease her about it, Mika took off before he can speak only to wait for him at the edge of the street. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Invited someone, huh?""</span></font> <span class=""bb-i"">I think I have hunch on who it is...</span> <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""This might be entertaining after all...""</span></font> Akira simply shrugged before taking off after her.

--

Mika then lead him to the shopping district and soon found themselves waiting outside at some Cafe. So this is the place, hmm? The third wheel has yet to show up and Akira could tell this was making her even more agitated, confirming his hunch by the minute. Though, unlike him, he dropped his bad boy act and listed to her earnestly in silence, letting her ramble. After letting her talk for awhile, he interjected. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""This 'friend' of yours, it's Rokoru, isn't it?""</span></font> He grinned, as it and his teasing tone faded before continuing <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""You'd never catch that guy being appreciative, not in public at least. It's that pride of his that's the problem. You know him better than I. You just got to be harder on him if you want him to listen.""</span></font> he replied seriously, surprising her with his statement and gentle tone as his gaze drifted elsewhere. 

Before she was able to respond, she instantly shutted up and started waving her cast-covered hand. As he took note in the corner of his eye and looked back at her. Looks like her guest is here. And Surprise Surprise, It's Rokoru. Despite trying to hide it, she obviously was talking about him. It was only natural, given how close they are and their feelings. But knowing Rokoru, he just wont simply up and say he loved her. The exchanges between these two were just sad but it made it all the more amusing to mess with him. Akira couldn't help but give an amused expression when he saw Rokoru's reaction to him being there. To top it off, he waved before Rokoru tried to leave. Though, Mika didn't let him and he eventually gave up before following her over. As she introduced his arrival, she made a comment regarding Rokoru's shirt as she started giggling as Rokoru wasted no time in crossing his arms and covering text, seemingly embarrassed over something as Mika hopped back closer to Akira. <span class=""bb-i"">Hmm..</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Trouble in paradise?</span> He nearly said out loud before deciding to say nothing.

As soon as she asked what they'd like, without hesitation, <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""A Coke is fine.""</span></font> He was never fond of cafes or their selections and he had enough water to last a lifetime, he wasn't here to impress with his drink selection. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""With that out of the way...""</span></font> he started once everyone finished ordering their drinks. With Rokoru have joined them, He reverted back to his usual self as he turned towards Rokoru, <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""All ready for your date with Saya-chan? She seemed really excited for it. To think you'd nab yourself a cute little gir-""</span></font> He feigned a slip of tongue he paused for a moment before 'correcting' himself <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""I mean, fan girl like her. I thought you were gunning for someone else but she isn't bad, congratulations.""</span></font> he added as he took a sip of his coke when the drink arrived. Akira was well aware that it wasn't a 'date' and the fact that Rokoru had feelings, not toward Saya but towards Mika but he couldn't help but tease Rokoru and see how he'll react with Mika right near him.</div>"

	After returning with everyone’s drinks, Mika found her (and as a result, everyone’s) way over to a small table surrounded by stools. Rokoru had taken a seat next to her, and without anyone noticing, had subtly pulled it a little closer to Mika when he went to sit down. Mika wrapped her hands carefully around the cup reeking of coffee beans and cream. Anyone who knew her on a friend level knew that that drink was not <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> a coffee, but instead, a triple-cream hazelnut/vanilla shaken latté. She pulled it a little closer to herself so that the rising steam hit her chin. Thinking back on what he had said seconds before Rokoru arrived, Mika nodded a little. Maybe he was right.

	Mika slid the two guys’ drinks to them—Rokoru a frothy drink similar to her own and Akira a simple soft drink. Just as she went to take a quick sip from her latté, Akira started talking to Rokoru, and she shot him a glare. Of course he’d just go for Rokoru immediately and try to rub something in whatever wound was showing. What was being rubbed in, Mika wasn’t certain, however. Out of a weird kind of respect and frustration for the two guys before her, she attempted to ignore whatever their argument or fight or whatever entailed. But it was hard to ignore when Akira said “<font color=""#007236"">I thought you were gunning for someone else but she isn’t bad, congratulations.</font>” Rokoru squirmed in his skin a bit after listening to the jabs Akira made, and he made an obvious effort to not look at Mika when he said “gunning for someone else”.

	With a bit of a slam, Rokoru put his fists flat-down on the table, sloshing around the liquid in the cups a bit. As a side-result, <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/jY17h6L.jpg"">the front of Rokoru’s shirt was clearly visible.</a> “<font color=""red"">I don’t even like her that much. Not my fault that she wanted to scum some money off me and get some new clothes. It isn’t like I have much cash to spend anyway. I wasted everything I had when me and Hashimoto went to that sports store.</font>”

	Before either of them could continue on with their peaceful conversation, Mika jabbed Rokoru in the side with her pointer finger, and spoke up. “<font color=""palegreen"">Why do you guys hate each other so violently? Educate me on what I missed in that one year I wasn’t in the Archery club.</font>” She tapped her chin just as Rokoru was about to say something. “<font color=""palegreen"">And both sides of it, Rokoru.</font>” Placated by her words, Rokoru sunk back into his seat (as much as you could when sitting on a stool, anyway) and fingered the cardboard insulation around the cup his hand wrapped around.

	Both Rokoru and Mika picked up their drinks and took a long, burning swig from them, picking them up and setting them down at almost the exact same time. Rokoru had told her of Akira before, of course, but someone like him can’t exactly be trusted to give a 100% completely unbiased and fair explanation of what had happened. “<font color=""palegreen"">While I’m at it, Akira, why are you always a jerk around everyone? You didn’t act like you usually do before Rokoru showed up.</font>” And at the wording she used, Rokoru straightened up a bit, probably thinking that Akira was trying to get into her pants or something by acting like the nicest guy around town. Mika stared at both boys intently until they’d answer with something.</div>"

""Alrighty. It looks like you're all set to go Noboru. Now be careful, We don't want you to end up in here again you moron.""

Noemi gave a playful smile, indicating her non-serious attitude. She was cold towards the Matthew boy, but only because he was an imbecile trying to hit on her. But she had known Noboru since he was 10 or so, so she knew he wasn't going to try with her, he had seen what she was capable of.

<font color=""navy"">OKay, Noemi, thank you! Cya around!</font>

Noboru had his training clothes, specially requested and delivered by his brother, who had gotten too friendly as of late. He stretched his legs and started on his jog towards the mall. It felt good to exercise again, even if it was just jogging. He kept a good pace, trying to maintain his breath. His chest heaved in and out, indicating he hadn't really practiced too much as of late. His breath was ragged, but he didn't let that keep him from jogging all the way to the mall without stopping. AS he continued onward, his thoughts wondered to the fact that he was missing drama club. Maybe if he was lucky, no one would notice his absence, and if they did, he had a relatively fine excuse. He WAS in the hospital after all, maybe he could play the pity card. Of course, they might've been heartless folks and he wouldn't get any slack. He arrived at the mall mid though, and started stretching again, ready to start his exercises. He looked around to see if he knew anybody there.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Aiko, the cool twin</div>

There were bags under Aiko's eyes, and his legs stuttered with every step. He had been Noboru's caretaker from his family the last few days, no one else really caring about interacting with the hospital ridden boy. He even washed and brought his training clothes for him, the new ones he had taken a while earlier. When Aiko approached him and asked about track, Aiko looked at his face. he absolutely knew that it wasn't just some random drunk that Toma had pissed off. You couldn't just piss off a drunk and walk away with a bruise or two. More like cuts and possible hospital visits. Aiko decided not to pursue it further, knowing it wasn't his business meddling in personal affairs, even though it bothered him too much and he wanted to know about it. Putting the thought to the back of his mind, he responded to the track question.

""Well of course i'm going. I'm not just gonna quit it after one practice. I'm not THAT weak.""</div>"

Toma's smile widened at Aiko's words. <font color=""#f26522"">""That's what I like to hear,""</font> he said, giving the boy a light, reassuring punch on the shoulder. He tossed his bag over his shoulder before leading the way out of the classroom. Glancing over at Aiko, a bit of worry flashed across his face for an instant, as he noted the less-than-stellar state he was in. Not that Toma himself was much better.

<font color=""#f26522"">""Just don't push yourself <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> hard, yeah?""</font> he said, looking away. <font color=""#f26522"">""I think I know how taxing the past several days have been for you, I guess.""</font> He stopped at a vending machine, continuing as he inserted money. <font color=""#f26522"">""No shame in taking a day off every once in a while.""</font> 

He grabbed the two drinks he had bought with his left hand, and tossed one to Aiko. <font color=""#f26522"">""Down it quick,""</font> he said with a smirk. <font color=""#f26522"">""Arata won't be impressed if he sees us drinking this stuff just before practice.""</font>

As Toma worked on cracking the can open with his teeth, he receded momentarily into his own thoughts. There were more than a couple people he felt like he should apologize to. His parents, of course, but also Kotori and the big guy, Alexei. He had, at least partially, put the two of them into awkward spots when he had burst into the flower store.

With a sigh, he finished guzzling his drink. He eyed his injured wrist, bending it ever so slightly. A small frown formed on his face as the pain registered. He'd have to grab some tape to wrap it up, to help keep it from moving as he ran. He could find some in the nurse's office, but immediately discarded that idea. He'd heard too many horror stories about that place. There were both a Boxing club and an MMA club at the school, so there was bound to be some in the gym storage room. That option was much safer.

He looked back over towards Aiko as they walked. <font color=""#f26522"">""So, how's your brother doing? I've overheard that he's okay, but I figure you're a more reliable source.""</font> Toma sort of also wanted to ask about <span class=""bb-i"">how</span> Noboru had been found, but decided against it, for no real reason other than being satisfied enough just knowing that he was fine.</div>"

Kasumi rose to the challenge presented before him quite aptly, raising the tone of his voice to be more feminine as he did his best attempt to portray a sisterly figure. It was a difficult exercise to pull off, since the language of the piece was quite rich and subtle in its execution. Ismene would need to be a subdued, unopposing girl, in contrast to Antigone's more curious nature.

And he did fairly well in his execution. Leiko opened her mouth, intending to give small praise for his enthusiasm, and then he shot <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> smile again. Was he trying to infuriate her by acting so cocky? Leiko let out a sharp intake of breath and crossed her arms. <font color=""yellow"">""Your stance is far too masculine. Your body has a language too, and its speaking the wrong tone,""</font> Leiko criticised flatly, ignoring the more positive qualities of his piece. <font color=""yellow"">""But still...a round of applause for Kasumi-san on his efforts,""</font> she instructed the group, which was conceded by a small burst of applause. Out of the corner of her eye however, Leiko spotted Shinichi speaking to someone unfamiliar, engrossed in their own conversations. ""<font color=""yellow"">Shinichi-kun, I would thank you to pay attention,""</font> Leiko snapped, looking unimpressed before looking over to the newcomer. <font color=""yellow"">""And you...I don't recall seeing your face at auditions. Are you aware that the club is at full capacity at the moment?""</font> She asked bluntly. <font color=""yellow"">""I appreciate your interest, but I will have to ask you to leave.""</font></div>"

In the usual routine that had started to become the class' commonplace, the bell signalled the mass exodus of the larger part of the class' students in a wild ruckus - classes, friends or even just home were all the destinations that most were all to eager to head toward after a full day of school. A few took it more slowly and one or two even stayed behind for a little while - such as, much like usual, Kotori who finished up her note-taking before checking them over once more. Only once this was done and she was satisfied did she pack her books and then head on out - conveniently, this also meant that she missed the large hustle and bustle that followed the bell and thus didn't have to deal with quite as full a hallway or the crowded main entrance.

As she headed on out, she kept much to herself - being her usual self, she passed by a number of other students without much in the way of greeting. Whilst there were the occasional few people she did know at least in passing, Kotori didn't happen to run into any of them on her way - and, as such, soon reached the main entrance without further ado and thereafter was on her way home.

<span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Shopping District | After School</span>

As Kotori walked through the mall, she thought for a moment on whether there was anything she needed from there - but came up with nothing; neither groceries nor school supplies or any personal items were running low and thus in need of restocking. Judging from the uniform they were wearing, she wasn't the only student from Warakuma High here - a small group of girls were excitedly discussing something in front of the shoe store, a few others could be seen throughout the shops. Despite not actually needing anything, Kotori couldn't help but still walk past some of the stores' windows to take a glance inside. Unfortunately, however, she didn't find any sales - as the afternoon bargain sales on eggs in the grocer's store had already all been sold out.

With a small sigh of disappointment, Kotori took her bespectacled eyes off the windows and instead back ahead - and taking a moment to realise that not far ahead of her stood a familiar figure. It took her another before she recognised said figure as that of Noboru Yamamoto, recent vanishee and subject of numerous rumours at school and, by the look of it, currently out for a jog or something in that vein. It would have been hard to have gone to school these past few days without hearing his name thrown about by at least someone - Kotori had heard a number of tales ranging from him having run away from home to him being hospitalised all the way to him having been kidnapped or even perhaps murdered. However, by the looks of it, nothing that serious seemed to have happened to the boy - even as Kotori had to remind herself that he was a fellow second year student despite his size.

Drawing nearer, it would have been difficult to just walk by as if she hadn't seen him - and not exactly the politest thing to do, too. As such, Kotori raised a hand in greeting as she held her school bag with the other. <font color=""green"">""Good afternoon, Yamamoto-san,""</font> she said, her voice quiet as ever. Though she only had met him once - on the same day that he'd seemingly vanished - she still remembered the concern with which both his brother, Aiko, and Toma had been searching for him - and felt as if seeing him up and about at least stifled that worry.</div>"

==~==

Mako flinched ever-so-slightly as his black-haired companion was berated by the strawberry-haired girl that had, until this moment been demonstrating her dramatic abilities in front of the assembled club members. Then the drama queen turned her apparent ire upon him, informing him that, despite his obvious interest, he was not welcome in their production-of-sorts. Mako raised his eyebrow, the traces of his patented grin beginning to spread across his features. 

<font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Bar Mako Moritomi from a dramatic exercise, Drama-tan? You have a lot of nerve. And very poor judgement, besides.</span></font> His grin began to grow wider as he squared his shoulders toward the uppity strawberry.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""Ask me to leave, you say? By all means, ask away. But just as you're going to have to ask me to leave, I'm going to have to stay right here, unfortunately. And so, therefore, we are at an impasse. I'll be happy to let you resolve our little paradox, but in the meantime, I shall stay and admire the proceedings- your talent has been quite enjoyable to observe so far, I must say. So go on, I shall not be a bother to you- heck, I've been here for at least five or ten minutes before anyone noticed me! That has to count for something toward my unobtrusiveness, no?""</font>

His wolfish grin was in full force now as he stared down the drama queen. <font color=""#0076a3"">""So please, do go on. I'm dying to see what's next for your demonstration.""</font> If one was paying attention, they could almost notice a subtle change in tone to this last sentence- almost like a challenge toward the person-in-charge...</div>"

In response to the proceedings Rui merely nodded and then listened in on the conversation. It appears they were at full capacity, something Rui wouldn't know, considering he wasn't exactly in charge of roster. He found it difficult to believe that they couldn't fit more people, considering not everyone attended each day, and sometimes people were signed on by name alone, so it wasn't like this room would be flocked.

<font color=""slategray"">""Actually, I noticed you when you walked in""</font>, Rui said, raising his hand soon as the boy had finished the talking.

<font color=""slategray"">""And he's able to physically stand in here. Is there a rule against letting people observe?""</font>, he inquired.</div>"

As he smiled he got the reaction he wanted, which was knowing she would get mad and proceed to criticize him, on anything that might have stood out. It was his posture, but he could work on that. Mastering a woman's posture was a challenge in its own, more so for a guy. However it was a challenge and one he could easily accomplish with enough time, yet she had a funny way of saying his body tone was masculine. She was acting more like a guy than he was. That was when another member got scolded and a willing man who wanted to enjoy the arts was denied, the one scolded member defended the denied one after his little piece which made him raise his hand. As he walked towards them.

<font color=""#aba000""><font color=""#598527"">""If I may, I'd say he should be more than welcome.

He couldn't help but laugh at Rokoru's reaction, not to mention the fact that the lettering on his shirt became known, he laughed harder. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""And here I thought you would like a submissive woman.""</span></font> He said in-between laughs before calming down as Mika interrupted their banter as she started asking questions about them. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hate each other violently?

Leiko listened astutely to the newcomer's response, a mixture of surprise and intrigue decorating her expression as he not only refused to leave them to their practice, but he managed to sneak in a compliment on her performance as well. Whilst more attitude and backtalk in the club was less than appealing (Masatomo could be more than enough for her to handle sometimes), the boy still managed to pinpoint a weakness that Leiko shared with most girls.

Flattery.

<font color=""yellow"">""Hmm, well, be as it may, my point stands regarding ceasing intake of members, at least for a few weeks..."",</font> Leiko frowned, cocking her head thoughtfully as she deliberated further on the matter. <font color=""yellow"">""I wouldn't hesitate if it was a female, but...oh, what the heck.""</font> 

Both Shinichi and Kasumi spoke up for the boy then, urging her to allow him to at least observe their practice, although Kasumi's words were more officious than she would have liked. <font color=""yellow"">""Indeed there isn't Shinichi-kun. Although less chitchat during a demonstration would be appreciated,""</font> she sighed at the boy's obliviousness. <font color=""yellow"">""And Kasumi, I would watch your tone if I were you.""</font> She spared a hard, warning glare at Kasumi before dismissing him with a wave of her hand. <font color=""yellow"">""Well then...""</font>

	“<font color=""red"">I’m always enamored with the time we spend together, Akira.</font>” Rokoru replied, baring his teeth slightly. Mika ran her hand through her bangs (accompanied by a deep sigh), causing several strands to fall onto her eyes. She quickly brushed them out of the way and Rokoru stirred in his seat when she did, an visable shiver slowly going through his entire body. It was a weird fascination but it really did it for him when she did that. In fact, ‘Turn Ons: Running Hand Through Hair Sexily’ was on a shirt of his, a gift from one of the guys on the team that had known of his secret kink. It was only a bolstering to his growing collection of embarrassing shirts.

His fingernails tapped against the table as he listened to Akira respond to Mika’s second question, and the answer given was cringe-y at best. Just a vague and obviously untrue response that only explained that he had accepted his reputation as Warakuma’s #1 Least Likable Person. “<font color=""red"">Stop dancing around answering. Are you too embarrassed to reveal your faulty past?</font>” The broad-shouldered boy donned a wide smirk. His confidence wasn’t the most convincing, but it was better than acting awkward and defensive around Akira. Rokoru slid his arms a little further onto the table, and peered out at Akira from beneath his lowered eyebrows. “<font color=""red"">Though I suppose I could start the recounting. Just to get you into the mood to share.</font>”

	“<font color=""red"">I never really knew Akira until when we both ended up in the Archery club when we were first years. I didn’t care for him at the time, and neither did he I think…</font>”

After School</span>

	Wearing a simple black shirt that advertised Dr. Salt, and a pair of worn blue jeans, Rokoru wandered into the Archery range. The high amount of upperclassmen in the range was partially intimidating to the teen, he already felt tall enough to not be automatically seen as some overly eager first year. Though, in a world of third years, there were still many, <span class=""bb-i"">many</span> guys that stood over him. All he could do was pray that he’d get taller in the months to come. Rokoru felt good when he was one of the taller or tallest in a group, and the range was anything but comforting in that aspect.

	Rokoru shook the feeling off after a bit of emptily staring at everyone from the entrance. It was just practice: just shoot some arrows, make friends or something. He felt confident when he walked over to the shooting line, equipment slung over his shoulder. Stopping between a black haired boy and some random blonde girl he’d never seen before (presumably a second year or something), he prepared himself and his bow to start slinging shots, when he noticed the black haired boy getting bulls eyes with seemingly little effort. Rokoru stopped dead in his tracks, one hand on an arrow and the other grasping the bow. He recognized the boy as one of his fellow first years, and Rokoru considered confronting the boy about what he had just done. Insecurity lead him towards the idea, and after a bit of pondering, Rokoru firmly tapped the archer’s shoulder.

	“<font color=""red"">Hey,</font>” he started, “<font color=""red"">I don’t think we know eachother, but I think I’m in your class or something. You’re a pretty good shot, huh?</font>""</div>"

Glancing at Rokoru reacting to Mika's movements were comical. It's like he was a little kid. <span class=""bb-i"">A mascot through and through</span>, he thought to himself with a laugh, containing his laughter. But after Rokoru responded to him, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Trying to psyche yourself up, huh? Well, don't force it.

Warakuma High // Archery Range
Monday, April 8th, 2013 
After School

It was just a typical practice for the Archery Club. School recently started so there was no tournaments in the near-future so it was more of kicking off the rust and for the newbies to get used to things. Not like such a period was needed for Akira, ever since middle school he would practice each and every day, firing hundreds of shots. He always believed in having a great work ethic and always pushed himself, believing failure wasn't an option. He wasn't that obsessive about it but it was practically the only thing that went well for him and it also gave him a sense of fulfillment.

From the moment he walked into the range, eyes were already on him. While a first year, some of the members know of his feats from either being in tournaments together or from word of mouth. It was embarrassing but it's something that doesn't bother him anymore, haven't gotten used to it in middle school. Lining up next to an upperclassman with blonde hair, he pulled his bow back and began firing off shots downrange, hitting bullseye after bullseye as more eyes and whispers turned towards him. Just as he went for another arrow he felt a hand on his shoulder. Turning around was a tallish boy with a short faux mohawk.

As the boy finished, Akira stood silent for a moment before answering with a blunt <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yea, I am.""</span></font> It wasn't his intention to come off rude and arrogant, it was just how Akira was. Also he didn't know what else to say to him since Akira wasn't exactly the social type, well around others. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Who-""</span></font> Just as he was going to ask for the boy's name, a group of the upperclassmen walked up to them. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#662d91"">""You hear that Banri? He just joined and the newbie already thinks he's better than us.""</font></span> One of them grinned, trying to act intimidating, Akira wasn't impressed and didn't react. <font color=""#f9ad81""><span class=""bb-b"">""You've got that right, Hayato,""</span></font> Another responded.</div>"

After School</span>

	“<font color=""#f9ad81"">Think you’re hot shit, kid?</font>” The taller of the two third-years leaned over Akira, a wide grin covering his snotty face. The second third-year lingered behind the first, and Rokoru watched on in a mix of confusion and intimidation. There wasn’t much of a point in defending some guy he had pretty much literally just met if it meant on getting on the bad side of some of the seniors. “<font color=""#f9ad81"">You probably got some kind of weird bow that’s making you better,</font>” the senior teased, obviously not the sharpest of tools.

	The second and shorter third-year peeked out from behind the first and shot Akira an ugly glare. “<font color=""#662d91"">Arrogance gets you nowhere,</font>” he said. It didn’t quite make sense but the point was that they were trying to kick him down a notch. There was no way some first year was better than <span class=""bb-i"">them</span>, and Akira, not being one to take such bullshit, lunged forward with his knee. The joint connected perfectly with the senior’s crotch, and he sent him to the ground with a shot to the back with his elbow. The second senior looked at the boy with a mixture of fear and anger before storming off in a fluster, leaving his ‘friend’ behind. Rokoru stared at Akira from behind the childish sobbing body of the third year. Akira gave a huff in response to the disgust written on Rokoru’s face and stormed off in his own right. Not before calling Rokoru and the seniors an obscenity or two, of course.

	“<font color=""red"">From that day on, the boy known as Akira the Clubwrecker acted out a lot. A shocking amount, I had thought.</font>” 

	Rokoru sat up straight after finishing the first part of his retelling. He lifted the still steamy drink in front of him to his mouth and took a small sip from it. Some of the floating layer of cream stuck to his upper lip. His tongue shot out and licked it off before the teen leaned forward again to continue talking, but not before his stomach interrupted with a loud growling. Rokoru put his hand onto his midsection and looked at the other two people surrounding the table. “<font color=""red"">Either of you two hungry? On me.</font>""

	“<font color=""palegreen"">Nothing for me,</font>” Mika responded, her hand holding up her chin.

	Rokoru turned in his seat to face her. Rubbing the back of his head with one hand and resting the other on the table, he replied, “<font color=""red"">Awh Mika, it’s the least I can do for you. You’re always bringing me stuff for lunch and I can hardly keep up the favor. Just lemme buy you something here!</font>” His tone of voice suggested that he either forgot Akira was there or that he had gotten accustomed (or more comfortable) with being in Akira’s company.

	“<font color=""palegreen"">Try to bring something from home if you want to make it up to me, Rokoru! It’s like you don’t even care about what you eat.</font>”

	The third-year frowned a bit. “<font color=""red"">I don’t. To be honest.</font>""

	Fed up with Rokoru for the time being, Mika gave in and instructed the boy to get her a muffin or something if he was buying food anyway. Rokoru got up from his seat and walked away from the table a few steps before suddenly turning back around on his heel. “<font color=""red"">Anything for you, Akira?</font>” He spat the words out, like he was being forced to say it.</div>"

==~==

The wolfish grin on the young Moritomi's face grew wider by a few molars as he saw his words take root in Drama-tan's mind. Even the subtle challenges might have worked in his favor, but the flattery worked just as well, if not more. Surprisingly pliable, this one. He did take a rather incredulous look around when she mentioned that she would not have hesitated head he been female. With the gender ratio so skewed toward the feminine end of the spectrum already, she should have jumped on the chance to balance the scales once again. It would have made her productions much easier to plan. 

He wrinkled his nose slightly at this, though he was probably too far away for her to see it. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">I smell more than a hint of sexism, here.</font></span> Once again, however, the thought was discarded- he'd already broken through the gender barrier that may or may not have been there, so he may as well make the most of that and not cause trouble. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">One step at a time.</span></font> He smiled wolfishly at the strawberry-haired drama queen and bowed slightly.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""Thank you, Miss. I promise you, I will not disappoint. Of that, you can be certain.""</font> With that out of the way, he turned to the rest of the club. <font color=""#0076a3"">""A pleasure to meet you all. I am Mako, Mako Moritomi. I look forward to getting to know you all much better.""</font> With that done, he turned to Shinichi-kun, smile still in place.

<font color=""#0076a3"">""So. I seem to be in need of a partner to pair myself with. Interested?""</font></div>"

Noboru kept doing his stretches, trying to stretch after all the days of inactivity. He neared the end of his exercises and was ready to start his running when the quiet words echoed in his ear. The words were really <span class=""bb-b"">really</span> quiet. Without turning around Noboru could guess who it was. There was only one person around who was that quiet, and even though he had met her only once, he knew she was the one speaking. Turning around, he addressed her.

<font color=""navy"">Oh hey! Didn't really expect to see you around here. Aren't clubs still going on or something? I guess I really shouldn't be talking though. I skipped clubs today.</font>
<div class=""bb-h2"">Aiko Yamamoto-To Track training</div>

Aiko accepted the drink. His eyes drifted off, thinking about the question. Finally having a really good answer ready, he turned and started talking.

""Well he's doing rather fine. In fact, he gets out today. Dropped off some clothes this morning for him. Knowing what he's gonna do after he gets out, the idiot. Anyhow, I just hope you're doing fine. I was rushing on pure adrenaline, while you were running off of energy drinks. More off topic, do you think we can run a few extra miles? This ordeal made me rethink how fit I am.""</div>"

As Noboru returned her greeting, Kotori gave a brief bow as he then spoke on. As he mentioned clubs, she thought on which clubs she'd seen or heard that day - she remembered hearing a classmate or two talking about Archery Club and she'd seen the Track and Field Club practicing as she'd left school. As such, she gave a simple shake of her head for an answer before realising that it could be taken either way. <font color=""green"">""Ah, no, clubs are still going on. This is my way home,""</font> she said, clarifying the otherwise vague answer. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> she started, unsure whether asking someone about their sudden absence would be too direct - but ultimately deciding to do so, given the worry that it put both his brother and Toma through.

<font color=""green"">""Your older brother, Yamamo-, ah, Aiko-senpai, seemed quite worried about you recently. Is everything okay now?""</font> Correcting herself midway through the name given that she was talking to Yamamoto about Yamamoto, Kotori's voice held more worry than curiosity - though she'd only just met Noboru on the same day he'd vanished, it was hard not to be at least a little affected by the upset it had caused those that knew him for longer.</div>"

With as much as you complained about him before, it's all fair game, yeah?""</span></font> he grinned at Mika before focusing his attention elsewhere.

As Rokoru got up and started walking away, he said something to Akira but he choose to ignore him. Rokoru soon stomped off and Akira found himself alone with Mika. Turning towards her, <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Now then, let's 'correct' a few things.""</span></font>

After School

As the group of third years continued their little shame game with Akira, Rokoru was practically ignored. Apparently he wasn't significant enough to be included in the conversation and that didn't sit well with him, the look on his face showed that. To top it off, he was still a little irked at Akira's response from a moment ago. Who does he think he is? Was probably running through his mind, no one would blame if that was true. But whatever was going through Rokoru's mind, he kept silent, for now anyway. Though, one of them managed to slip from his head and out in the open. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""He probably got some kind of weird bow that’s making him better.""</span></font>He said to no one particular.

While they ignored him before, both of the Seniors attention were noticing him now. The taller one, Banri, broke out in a grin. <font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""My thoughts exactly,""</span></font> He looked at Rokoru with a grin as Rokoru finally realized he said it out loud. After remaining silent throughout this exchange, Akira finally spoke out. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Don't be ridiculous. Anyone with the tiniest bit of <span class=""bb-i"">skill</span> will be able to do as much.""</span></font> He denied bluntly, not intending to sound rude but just admitting what he believed to be the truth. If you worked hard enough at something, anyone would be able to do it. While it was clear he had a real natural talent for Archery, he didn't seem himself as anything special. To Akira, he simply worked harder than the others and his hard worked paid off. Though, he always feels that he could do better.

Unintended as it may have been, the seniors were clearly pissed, their pride having been damaged. Just as they were about to resort to getting physical, Rokoru stepped in, also sounding peeved. ""If you're so sure of yourself, let's swap bows and see how you do."" Handing his bow to Akira. Accepting his challenge, him and Rokoru switched bows. Rokoru took 3 shots, 2 bulls-eyes and one that came close. With that display the seniors diginity was restored and they were back to their cocky selfs, now acting sure that Akira will now fail. Akira pulled the bow back and took aim. What would ensue was 3 perfect bulls-eye, efficient like a machine. Akira then lowered the bow and showed no emotion, not even elation as one would feel upon so a feat. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""See?""</span></font> he said simply as the others stared in disbelief. 

Before anything was said, the clubs adviser called Akira over to talk to him regarding the club. Putting the bow down, he walked over and began talking to the teacher. When he came back, his bow was slightly damaged and the string was snapped off. The seniors still seemed a bit despirited while Rokoru.....was gone.</div>"

	The squeak of strain being put on the cheap metal of the stools annoyed Mika as Rokoru sat down beside her again. The teen passed a suspiciously simple-looking muffin over to her before taking a bite from some kind of fried sandwich filled with a variety of meats that threatened to tip the sandwich boat they sailed on. Based on the grunt of pleasure, she assumed that Rokoru was enjoying both himself and the sandwich. Mika picked at the muffin he had given her and tasted a small bit of it. The taste of several savory flavors consumed her tastebuds and she couldn’t help but be physically repulsed by it. It was incredibly far from what she had expected, and to wash the lingering spiciness from her mouth, she took a swig of latte. The last bits of it tasted like nothing but flavor shots, which was also not pleasant.

	Though, the terrible choice in both food and drink couldn’t distract her from the situation at hand. Akira had revealed the truth of what happened two years back, which meant that Rokoru had lied. Lied to her straight-faced like he wasn’t doing anything wrong. She wasn’t even <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> mad about what Rokoru had done to Akira (though she still didn’t approve obviously; it was an incredibly shitty thing to do, even out of jealousy), but he purposely avoided the truth, blamed it on Akira, and refused to step up to his past wrong-doings to do… what? Save face in front of a childhood friend? The taste of sugary badness and savory muffin in her mouth was replaced by one of disappointment.

	Mika glared at Rokoru as the boy devoured his food, the sandwich disappearing into his gullet shockingly fast. He appeared to be blissfully unaware of the information that had just been shared, so Mika hit him on the calf with her foot to draw his attention to her. “<font color=""palegreen"">Akira corrected your story, Rokoru. Nice to hear that you wrecked his equipment. Way to go, lying to one of your best friends!</font>” Upon hearing her words, Rokoru’s expression turned upset immediately. Mika rose from her seat on the stool, pulling her bag onto her shoulders as she did so. She continued before either boy could interject. “<font color=""palegreen"">This was an enlightening experience. I hope you enjoyed your coke or whatever, Akira.</font>” And happy with her final words, the highschool girl walked away and out the door, leaving the shitty muffin all alone on the table.

	After she left, Rokoru turned swiveled around on his seat until he faced Akira with an angry look. Despite having nothing to say, he opened his mouth to talk. No words followed and all the teen could do besides sit there looking stupid was scowl. Scowl hard. It didn’t take long of that before he got sick of looking at Akira’s face again and pushed himself off the stool and onto the floor. His eyes wondered over to the muffin but even he decided to just leave it. Someone would do something with it. And with Rokoru flying out the door of the café, Akira was left all alone. 

Excluding the muffin’s depressing company, of course.</div>"

The newcomer Moritomi offered to partner with him for today. Rui had no reason to refuse, so he accepted.

The rest of Drama Club went by without much else happening. Leiko seemed to be fairly satisfied with everyone's progress today. After club was over, everyone headed home as they usually did.



Warakuma Hospital - Evening

As Noboru looked out his window, waiting for the day to end again, he saw a flicker of a person'a figure appear in the reflection. Noticing this he turned... But there was nothing there, almost instinctively he called out ""Matthew?"", but it appears he was not there, or anyone for that matter... It was a strange experience, was it possible this hospital was haunted...? In any case, he looked to a small key in his hand... It was the key to the Velvet Room. How did he get there though...?

Very Early Morning</span>

	Sato awoke to his phone’s ringtone. He rolled around beneath the covers until his flailing hand slapped his phone off the table next to his bed, and upon hearing, the boy sat up and scooped the phone from the ground. The name displayed on the screen was “Yukiteru?”, but Sato hesitated to pick up. It was a few hours before his alarm would’ve went off and hence the normal waking time for students, so it would’ve been perfectly excusable to not pick up like he hadn’t woken up to the ringing. There had to be <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> reason for Yuki to call so early, and the more he pondered whether to pick up or not, the more curious he got. After the phone had rung a surprising amount of times, Sato tentatively answered the call.

	“<font color=""skyblue"">Yuki?</font>” Sato asked, before whoever was on the other line could say anything. “<font color=""skyblue"">It’s like 4 AM, why are you calling so late?</font>”

	It took a few moments for the caller to answer, and in the time it took, Sato rubbed his eye with the heel of his hand. “<font color=""#aba000"">Mika asked me to call you. I’m not sure why she couldn’t just do it, but... just wanted to make sure you were coming to practice today.</font>”

	He ran a hand through his messy bangs. “<font color=""skyblue"">Of course I am. Why’d you bother calling me so early just to ask a question like that?</font>”

	Another lengthy pause. “<font color=""#aba000"">She’s been talking to me since midnight. She promised to stop talking to me if I told you that she wanted you to meet her and some peeps in the backroom of the range today.</font>” And with nothing else to say, Yuki hung up and Sato lowered the phone from his face. The screen lit up with a ‘DISCONNECTED’ message. Welp.

	The school day ended quicker than it seemed to start, and as usual, he would’ve been waiting for the crowd of students rushing out the doors to thin out so he could leisurely make his way to wherever he was headed. But instead of doing that, Sato found himself part of that crowd, as he had promised Yuki and subsequently Mika that he’d meet them in the back room of the range before he went off to go practice and whatever he intended to do after. He wasn’t sure what she wanted to talk to him about if it required the secrecy of the range’s rarely used (ever since they moved the cabinets and whatnot to the front room, for the sake of convenience) backroom.

	And that’s where Sato went, and he found himself standing outside the door to the range. The weather was pretty average out. Typical for the season, though the wind was a little stronger than usual, piercing the jacket of his uniform and stinging with the slightest bit of chilliness. He shivered.</div>"

Mako once again checked the wrappings around his hands, even though he'd done it at least a dozen times by now. His hopefully-outstanding performance at the drama club yesterday notwithstanding, Mako had to admit that if he were allowed only one club to join, it would have to be the Boxing club, for sure. There was something about the thrill of the fight, the challenge, the effort required that just sang to him. For some reason or another. A good way to let off steam, a decent form of exercise, and something that he naturally excelled at, to boot. What wasn't to like? 

His constant grin turned slightly feral as he reached the locker room, hands flexing and relaxing reflexively, his body nearly shaking in anticipation. Because, again, if Mako were to be honest with himself, it was only in the heat of battle that Mako truly felt like himself. And it was only in the heat of battle where his classmates got a glimpse of the fire that lay under his many masks. 

Mako grinned his feral smile and started to ready himself for the today's practice.</div>"

Rui had no trouble joining, as he has done Kendo back in his old school. He knew Kami did Kendo too, but it looks like he wasn't going to come today.

They grabbed something to eat and simply talked. Not a big deal in the scheme of things. Noboru was still tired from the past events however. You couldn't just shake something like that off. It just didn't happen. After getting out of class, Noboru grabbed his bag and looked inside. Yep. His exercise clothes were still in there. Nice and clean? Weird, seeing as he hadn't washed them before. Or maybe he did, and just forgotten about it. OR, maybe someone hhad sabotaged his clothes again for maximum embarrassment and was hoping he would try to rip his shorts. Oh well. He would just have to be hopeful that it wasn't the case with his clothes. He walked down the stairs and towards the exit, going down the path to the mall. He pulled out his phone and texted Chiaki, inquiring whether she was ready for the running today or not. Walking towards the mall still, his mind wandered off as he waited for a reply.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Akari Yamamoto-The smooth boxer</div><br/><br/>Akari pounded the bag as hard as she could, letting hit swing wildly with each hit.

And much like usual, Kotori was one of those few who remained in her seat when the time came; opting to finish up her day's notes before packing her bag - which had the added advantage of letting her bypass the worst of the large sea of students loitering in the hallways on their way home, to clubs or to friends by virtue of arriving there after them. With the day's work thus done, Kotori took her bag before heading out of the classroom and into the hallway. With Noboru having turned back up at school, most of the wild rumours about him had since died down; other topics taking the place instead. However, something else had caught Kotori's attention that morning - a flyer for a new club.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School | Wednesday, April 15 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>As she made her way to the clubroom, Kotori couldn't quite help but get a slight feeling of doubt creep up in her mind - the clubroom was one of the out-of-the-way ones, the flyer had been somewhat a rather simple one and she'd never actually heard of the school having an agriculture club before - but ultimately, she decided to at least pay them a visit, seeing as at least that much surely couldn't hurt. And if it turned out to not be something for her - or the times they'd meet even if it was happened to be inconvenient for helping out at home - she could always apologise for having wasted their time. With that in mind, Kotori took a quick breath before gently tapping on the clubroom door - so gently, in fact, that it was barely even audible; leaving her standing in front of the closed door for another few moments before she slowly pushed it open; peering inside.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... excuse me? Is this the Agriculture Club...?""</font> she asked, her voice quiet as ever, after glancing about the rather empty room and then finding its sole occupant standing there in deep thought by the looks of it.</div>"

The ringing of the bell ended classes, allowing her to pack her bag up and stand to. The duration of the day had been consumed by this abomination of a conversation held at the back behind her betwixt two girls, and the aggravations of her speaking with such hopes of asking out some boy or another a few seats ahead of her was just about too much to hear. If she had to hear one more damned thing-<br/><br/><font color=""#ff0000"">""I hope that he'll say yes...""</font><br/><br/>Okay. Nevermind. Had to correct this. She was thinking too high in her head to let this slide.

You'll never be the girl that he wants, you'll never amount to anything close to this guy's desired type, and you're certainly going to have a failure of a love life.

And with a harsh look given to her as her victim began to cry, she sighed contentedly, happy that the blathering had finally stopped. The poor complaints of her friend didn't phase her as they spoke out once she began to leave, only stopping at the door for one particular question that she just <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to answer. <br/><br/><font color=""#660000"">""Who are you to go around making someone cry?!""</font><br/><br/>It wasn't obvious by now? A soft sigh, and she leaned back to poke her white-haired head back in with a genuine smile as she responded in a kind voice to such a rude question. <br/><font color=""#990099"">""That's simple too. I know better than your friend and you do. Isn't it obvious by now?""</font><br/><br/>The snarky comment left to seep in? Out she went. Club sign-ups had begun and she'd had an interest in boxing...So off she was to it, since she'd signed up. And it would have been fine-<br/><br/>If...people weren't here. Damnit. Well, should have expected that for a club. Off to the changing room to get into a pair of shorts and a white t-shirt and brush her hair up into a messy ponytail. The slam of the locker signified her locking her necessaries into the metal rectangle and stepping out to go to an unoccupied sandbag as two of the members apparently had their fair bit of electricity going on. With her hand wraps secured from the Velcro patches, a single sideways glance at the duo made her let out a small snicker that she just couldn't help before she turned her focus to the bag. <br/><br/><font color=""#990099"">""Cat got a rat in a corner...Haa...Alright.""</font><br/><br/>Right jab. Left hook. Uppercuts alternating from right to left, secondary side kick. Normal combination to train before switching. Keep the hands up, never let the guard down, keep that stance ready. There wasn't a smile, there wasn't a fire in those eyes. It was just considerate focus to see where and what she was hitting, how to adjust, if she needed to hit harder or ease up. <br/><br/>The first combination sent the bag swinging around its chain as she hit it with all her strength, making it so she had to stop to still the enraged exercise equipment to ensure she didn't miss her next of her ten count. Huh...well, they weren't flimsy at least. And that was good for her. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad, even if there were other people around to do God-knows-what wrong.</div></div>"

Keiko looked away from the window to look at the voice. The voice belonged to Hamako Toji.

It was nice meeting you!"" Hamako blurted all so quickly and then ran off. <br/><br/>The classroom was empty except for her in the room. She sighed happily, she missed being a normal girl and doing normal girl things even for a few hours. Since she doesn't know of any other clubs so she decided to join the Kyuudo club. She collected all her books and pencils which she was paid for by the hidden safe in Obachan's basement, it was enough to pay for the first month's bills so Obachan can get a job and support them in the new town and also some new clothes for her, Obachan kept her old clothes, which her cleaner than most homeless people's clothes so she won't get outed as a recently homeless woman.

But Keiko wished Obachan would stop telling her to reconnect with her parents, they are cruel and only care about money. <br/><br/>Keiko shakes her head, she had to think positive.

They're supposed to have practice like most sport clubs today so the chance of success is much higher today. She wasn't sure if she should try again given her numerous failed attempts but it was unusual for her to have this much free time on a Wednesday. So why not? <br/><br/>Kendo errr swordplay, was something that always had Akane's attention. It all started from the Katana her father had framed above their fireplace back at home and evolved when she was first introduced to manga by her brother, which of course had a sword in it. Over time she started practicing kendo at her family's dojo, under her fathers instruction, of course. She never had the free time to join her middle schools Kendo Club nor did she have the time to join in her first year of high school given the crazy schedule her senpais in the Manga Club ran for their club activities. Now that they're gone and that she's now the president, she can take it easy. Maybe by joining another club she might be able to relax and be more inspired....and break her block.<br/><br/>Walking into the gym where they Kendo Club was scheduled to be, she finally seen others there.

Then again, it wasn't as if she had anything better to do besides waiting in her house for a call that might as well not come at all.

Well, she might as well go around the clubs and she if any piqued her interest, aside from the Idol club.<br/><br/>She first went to the gym, and saw there the people training kendo with all their might.

She left the gym and next went to the swimming pool, trying to see if there was someone there practicing, though she didn't find anyone at all. Then there was the boxing club she also heard about, and there they were, practicing. She scanned the room with her eyes and saw some interesting people, like someone with white hair put in a ponytail. She waved hello at some people that noticed her around there before leaving yet again. <br/><br/>Then, she went to visit the archery, or Kyuudo, club. She was even able to ask someone about the idol club, but she was told they knew nothing about something like that. Oh, well, what else could she do? Last but not least, she decided to check the Agriculture Club. She found some people on the door, who seemed to be a little more interested in the Agriculture club than Utaha herself was. Bending over and putting her face near the other two girls' as well, she smiled at her like a cat would. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Hello there~!

It slid to the side with a concerning rickety sound, and light poured into the room. There was late-day sunlight coming from the clouded window to the left of the room but the artificial lighting from the range over-powered it. The boy stepped inside and closed the door, not expecting it to close as easily as it did. A high-pitched voice greeted him with a “<font color=""palegreen"">Hey</font>”, and Sato’s eyes peered around the room until they landed on Mika standing in front of a bunch of boxes and two seniors horsing around by said mound of boxes. Sato took a few steps towards them, but just as he did, the decrepit light bulb above him turned off and on for a second in a flurry of sparks.<br/><br/>	“<span class=""bb-b"">It does that sometimes,</span>” the angry-looking girl said before pushing the boy next to her back. Sato nodded in response, and looked over at Mika for some kind of explanation.<br/><br/>	She brushed a strange of hair from her eyes. “<font color=""palegreen"">Thanks for coming, Sato. Sorry for telling you to come to the backroom.</font>”<br/><br/>	“<span class=""bb-b"">It is kind of creepy,</span>” the senior guy interjected, tossing an arm around the girl. Sato recognized the guy from that one time Rokoru got into running marathon and often ran around the track with him, and he recalled that the girl was one of the members of the archery team that had been there since she was a first year. He presumed them to be dating based on how flirty she reacted to the arm movement.<br/><br/>	“<font color=""palegreen"">Thank you, Rento.</font>” Mika glared at him before returning her gaze to Sato’s sharp features. “<font color=""palegreen"">I just wanted your input on something. We were thinking Rokoru isn’t the best fit for club prez right now.</font>”<br/><br/>	“<font color=""skyblue"">So… what? Who do you suggest would be a better choice? Me?</font>”<br/><br/>	“<font color=""palegreen"">Of course not,</font>” she replied, giving a smile that Sato couldn’t quite tell if it implied that she was joking or not. “<font color=""palegreen"">I take it you agree with us.</font>” He nodded. “<font color=""palegreen"">I was thinking that someone like Rento or Hitomi. But not them.</font>” The two seniors standing at the back of the room nodded in response, and Rento scratched at the practically non-existent hair behind his ear.<br/><br/>	“<font color=""skyblue"">Okay. So, correct me if I’m wrong, but… You want a third-year that’s been in a member of the archery team since first year? That automatically excludes myself, and you’ve already dismissed Rento and Hitomi—why are they even here?—so what, should we vote you?</font>” Sato tried to get comfortable on his feet, but after shifting his weight from hip to hip a few times, he found a seat on a strangely hard box resting by the door.<br/><br/>	Hitomi spoke up first. “<span class=""bb-b"">Mika told us to be here in case you didn’t agree,</span>”<br/><br/>	Rento continued, “<span class=""bb-b"">In which case we’d beat you up.</span>”<br/> <br/>	“<font color=""palegreen"">Yeah, a few broken bones would convince you!</font>” She flashed the same smile from earlier again. “<font color=""palegreen"">There’s no reason to set our minds to someone now, and I don’t want to be the leader. And I don’t think Rokoru would appreciate me usurping him.</font>” She found her way to a box-seat as well.<br/><br/>	Sato digested the information for a second and thought about what he would do in the situation. But a bigger question popped into his head. ""<font color=""skyblue"">Do you like him or something? Rokoru, I mean.</font>” At being asked it, Mika pressed a strand of hair that fell onto her shoulder between her fingers. She didn’t blush or anything but it was clear that she didn’t intend to answer out of embarrassment. Sato smirked in reply, before standing up and walking over to the door. He tried to open the door and walk out all cool and collected, but the boy’s thin hands struggled to do so. Rento blew air out of his nose and walked over to where Sato stood. Standing on the opposite side from where Sato pulled from, the slightly taller boy pushed the door with his body weight behind it. A crack of wood resounded from it when it suddenly slid completely open. Sato thanked the boy while looking at the floor and took a few steps out, turning around to wave farewell to the other two.<br/><br/>	As he walked over to the main room of the range, Sato’s mind chewed on what she said. Why they had suddenly decided that Rokoru wasn’t suited for the role of almighty ruler of the archery club, Sato couldn’t guess. Maybe it was because the boy’s enrollment at Warakuma High was being threatened. As he approached a group of guys he knew from his class that were loitering right by the front door (where he’d been just minutes ago), Sato shook the heads from his thoughts. It didn’t concern him. Not that much, at least.</div>"

Unsure what to make of the entire situation, seeing as she didn't know any of the three or what the two girls' relation to the Agriculture Club was, Kotori was left to look between them and occasionally pick at the hem of her skirt - a habit she'd acquired ages ago.</div>"

Even though he had a hand in making things worse, Rokoru dug his own grave with his tall tales. Akira was the kind of guy that tells things how it is and he couldn't well lie to the girl.

After the announcement about Matthew's disappearance - and most likely kidnapping even - the rumour mills had practically gone into overdrive; much like they had after Noborus similarly spontaneous vanishing. Kotori meanwhile was left rather conflicted about the announcement - this was the second person who went missing the very same day that she had met them. After a moment, she shook her head to get that silly thought out of her head - there was no way these two were somehow connected and much less that she was somehow involved too. Even so, a small bit of worry never quite left her thoughts throughout the day.<br/><br/>With the ringing of the bell that signalled the end of the school day, Kotori breathed a silent sigh with mixed feelings as she finished up her notes of the day. Putting her notebook away, she retrieved a piece of paper from her school bag - the application form that she'd received just yesterday. She remembered the discussion she'd had with her mother about it - whether it would be acceptable for her to join a club when she was helping out at home. Unfortunately, her mother had shot all her carefully prepared arguments down completely with an immediate and oddly delighted ""Yes"" right away; leading to Kotori now holding a carefully filled out form in her hands.<br/><br/>Now, however, there was an entirely different problem at hand - with their club president missing, Kotori doubted that the other Agriculture members would be much in the mood for new members right now; the girl knowing little of the fact that said members numbered in the lower zeroes. As such, she didn't want to bother them at such a time - much less when she didn't even know anyone other than the now missing Matthew; and even him just fleetingly. After a moment, however, Kotori ultimately decided to at least head by the Agriculture Club - after all, she'd already decided that she'd like to join, however tentatively that may be. With that, she stood up from her chair - her inner debate having given most of her classmates ample time to already head on out - and, with both bag and application form in hand, to head out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club | After School</span><br/><br/>Of course, saying - or rather, thinking - something was one thing; actually doing it was entirely another. Standing in front of the door to the Agriculture Club - she still wondered why it was such a far-off room - Kotori stood clutching the application form in one hand and the other half-raised as if to knock on the door but hesitating. Still, she had decided to follow through - and thus, gently knocked against the door; generating a rather faint sound that would barely be heard over the voices that she could hear muffled from the other side. Waiting for a second or ten, Kotori then opened the door - and found two familiar faces sitting inside in the form of the two girls who had visited the Agriculture Club yesterday.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Excuse me,""</font> Kotori said, giving a small bow as she did. As she stepped inside, she noticed that the two were, in fact, the only ones here - and had been the ones whose voices she'd heard. With none of the actual club members around, Kotori's original purpose for coming here quickly fell apart - though at the same time, it saved her from being questioned by a club member about Matthew's disappearance as she briefly remembered something similar happening back when Noboru vanished. That, however, was a different matter - the current one being her standing a little awkwardly at the door and not knowing what to say to the two girls who were no doubt expecting her to speak up now that she'd already stepped inside.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... good day,""</font> Kotori said, her voice even quiter than usual, whilst she glanced from side to side behind her glasses but still seeing no sign of any club members about. <font color=""green"">""Was anyone else here?""</font> she asked - only to realise that the question didn't really make much sense by itself. Holding up the application form - slightly crumpled from her unconsciously and nervously having played with it in her hand - she added: <font color=""green"">""I was thinking of joining.""</font> A moment later, Kotori wondered just why she'd said that - of course the other two already knew that; they'd seen and heard her just yesterday after all.</div>"

While having been taught personally back at home, she was in a new place and been away from the sport for some time. <br/><br/>She made her way to the other half of the gym with the other girls and started taking her practice swings.

Not only that, but she wasn't even returning Saya's increasingly panicked messages.  Her friends merely dismissed it as part of Hama-chan's 'aloof, devil may care' attitude, but Saya knew better. Hama-chan's attendance record was near flawless. Why would she disappear without a trace?<br/><br/>Her eyes flickered to the boy sitting on the other side of class; Noboru Yamamoto. Saya didn't really know him directly, but he had a sort of notoriety about him after his disappearing act the past few days. He seemed like a nice guy, but not without his secrets. It appeared as if no one knew the true reason why he disappeared. It was strange, that was for sure.<br/><br/>So Hama-chan's absence couldn't be linked to that, could it? <br/><br/>""Hey, Saya-chan, I heard about what happened in Archery! Is it true about you and the Club President?"" One of Saya's friends had approached her desk with a sly smile as the bell rang for the end of classes. ""Wow, girl. You work fast!""<br/><br/>""Umm...I'm gonna skip Archery today, actually..."" Saya murmured vaguely, barely hearing a word her friend said as she reached for her school bag and headed for the door. ""See you tomorrow...""<br/><br/>""Huh?

It was nearly too easy to mistake the woman for Leiko, had it not been for the lines on her face, and the strange expression she wore as she greeted Saya with a wafer thin smile. ""Oh, hello. Leiko's friend, I assume?""<br/><br/>The woman's breath smelled of stale wine, and it was all Saya could do to resist wrinkling her nose as she smiled a little too brightly in response. ""Ah, yes! I was wondering if Hama-cha-ahh, I mean, if your daughter is home? She didn't come to school today.""<br/><br/>""Hmm?"" The older woman frowned for a moment, then glanced up the stairs. ""Ah. Well, umm, that's probably it..."" Her answer was so vague it made Saya's eyebrows fly up in disbelief. ""Would you like to go up and check on her?""<br/><br/>""Umm...yes, I would actually. Thank you, Hamada-san."" Saya bowed respectfully before slipping off her shoes and entering the house. Leiko's mother on the other hand, didn't even bother to close the door as she headed off towards the kitchen. She was certainly a little weird, that's for certain. No wonder Hama-chan didn't like talking about her.<br/><br/>Discarding her slightly judgemental thoughts for now, Saya made her way up the stairs, and towards Leiko's room. Admittedly, she didn't really come to Hama-chan's place that often. Her friend was a pretty private person, really. She never talked about herself that much; not her family, not her fiance, not even her aspirations for the future. It was more than a little frustrating.<br/><br/>Saya stood to a halt outside Leiko's door and rapped her knuckles on the solid wood tentatively, her breath hitching from the suspense.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""What is it?""</font><br/><br/>Hama-chan's blessed, sulky-sounding voice made Saya sigh in relief, no longer taking a moment's hesitation as she forced her way through the door and flung herself on Hama-chan's bed. ""Hama-chaannnn!""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""H-Hey!""</font> Leiko's startled voice became less muffled as her head appeared out of her bed covers, her face flushed hot and eyes glaring angrily at Saya. <font color=""#fff200"">""What are you doing here? And stop bouncing on my bed, my head is killing me..."",</font> she added irritably as she pressed her hand against her burning forehead.<br/><br/>""I'm just glad you're okay!"" Saya squealed, ceasing her bouncing for a moment only to shoot Leiko a hurt look. ""Do you realize what you've been doing to me? You didn't answer any of my texts!""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""I was <span class=""bb-i"">ill,</span> Saya. I was kind of too busy throwing up to keep up my social life...""</font> Leiko grumbled, sliding back under the sheets and away from view.<font color=""#fff200"">""Besides, I'm still coming to school tomorrow, so you would have seen me then.""</font> <br/><br/>""Yeah, well, I didn't want to take any chances!"" Saya protested, an uncharacteristic scowl on her face as she pulled the covers back from Leiko's face. ""After what happened with that Noboru guy? You <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> didn't think that no one would be worried?""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""I doubt that anyone else possesses the same level of paranoia as you,""</font> Leiko growled, wrapping her arms around herself as she shivered from her burning fever. ""<font color=""#fff200"">I inhaled too much dust last night and had a reaction. I hardly 'disappeared'."" </font> She clicked her tongue disapprovingly. <font color=""#fff200"">""But still...I suppose you were just looking out for me.""</font><br/><br/>""You bet. And next time you decide to disappear, send me a text first, okay?"" Saya grinned widely, patting the slightly disgruntled Leiko on the head before retrieving her notebook from her bag. ""I got my notes with me. We can catch up together if you want?""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""That...would be pretty helpful. Thank you.""</font> Leiko looked up at Saya with a hint of a smile as she took the notebook gratefully. <font color=""#fff200"">""Hmm, isn't it Archery Club today though?""</font><br/><br/>""Yeah, well..."" Saya's eyes fell to the mattress with a hint of a blush on her cheeks. ""Kinda a long story, but I'm a bit embarrassed to show my face there anyways.""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""I don't suppose it has something to do with 'Rokoru-Senpai &lt;3', does it?""</font> Leiko said with a deadpan expression whilst holding up Saya's rather decorative notes. <font color=""#fff200"">""Only a wild guess but-""</font><br/><br/>""J-Just shut up and study!""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">-Thursday 16th April, 2015- After School</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada: Warakuma High School: Auditorium</span><br/><br/>""You know, it really would be okay if you wanted to cancel Drama Club today, Hama-chan,"" Saya frowned, tapping on Leiko's shoulder as they packed away their books. ""You're still not completely over your fever yet, and people wouldn't judge or anythi-""<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""No.""</font> Leiko's answer was firm and absolute as she shrugged off Saya's concerned touch. ""<font color=""#fff200"">We can't afford to just 'miss' a club session. I'd keel over and die first.""</font><br/><br/>""Judging by how you look, that wouldn't be an impossibility..."" Saya muttered under her breath. ""Well, I-""<br/><br/>""Hey, Saya-chan! We're heading to the Mall! Wanna come?""<br/><br/>""Ahh, w-well, hold that thought, okay Hama-chan?"" Saya shot an apologetic smile as she cocked her head towards the friends waiting for her by the door. ""Take care of yourself! Don't work too hard!""<br/><br/>Leiko merely sighed as she watched her friend bound off like an excitable puppy, picking out a vanity mirror from her bag and glancing at her features. She looked vastly better than she did the day before (with a dripping nose, hot red flushed face and bloodshot eyes, Leiko really had been a sight to behold), although the faintest pink flush remained on her cheeks. Overall, however, it was back to business as usual.<br/><br/>And speaking of business, Leiko couldn't help but spot that Yamamoto boy getting up and packing his things. He was a mystery, certainly, but more importantly- was he planning to attend Drama Club today?<br/><br/>Squaring her shoulders, Leiko approached his desk, tapping his shoulder gently as she gauged him with a guarded smile. ""<font color=""#fff200"">Yamamoto-kun. I didn't have the chance to say how glad I am to see you're back in school. And when I say you're 'back', is it safe to assume you'll be coming to club today?""</font></div>"

A gaijin like him and apparently president of the more famous Agriculture Club. <br/><br/>The reports had said that he was kidnapped and that police were still looking for traces. Alexei was a bit concerned about the recent developments so he had set up for a co-worker to pick up his sister from school and drop at the hospital with his mother. That's be the last thing he would be able to contend with. She was too precious to him to not panic a bit with the new developments.<br/><br/>He also had decided to make changes to her daily schedule and incorporate some self defense lessons.

Ensuring that Sagat would be walking Inoue home, he walked out of the lecture room straight to the practicing room.<br/><br/>As he walked into the room, it was still empty. He threw his bag on one of the chairs and took a look around the whole hall. Though it wasn't that grand or regal, still it had considerable size. He raised his arms beside him and inhaled deeply. He wouldn't want anyone to crash on this moment but that hardly concerned him enough to drop his pose.<br/><br/>The last practice was still vaguely in his mind. He wanted his impression to change on the stern president. He arched his back and looked towards the ceiling as his entire form seemed to emanate a certain oppressive force. Like a hawk just before grabbing his prey, Alexei stood there with his open, thick log-like arms and an expression of relief.<br/><br/>This club somewhat helped in washing away all the tension that regularly piled upon him.</div>"

Kotori barely got a moment to reply to any of the questions she asked; the girl simply talking on before she had the chance - before grabbing her hands and pulling her over to the table where the other girl sat.

Given that there probably was little reason for anyone to come to this room without a purpose, Kotori assumed that he was a club member - on whose club they were intruding right now. Quickly standing up, she gave a bow before speaking. <font color=""green"">""Please excuse us, we were hoping to find someone from the Agriculture Club.""</font> Her voice was as quiet as ever - and trailed off a little toward the end as she realised that she wasn't even sure if that was the real reason that Utaha and Keiko were here for.

Though he only seemed to notice two of them, Utaha still greeted him with all of her energy, or at the very least, that's what she intended to do. When she tried to get up, Utaha suddenly fell down and hit her face directly with the floor. That was the worst timing to start being clumsy, and yet, she just had to go and fall like that. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Ouchie...""</font> She said before, getting into a sitting position so she could caress her nose that she hit. <font color=""#f7976a"">""I'm sorry about that~ I kind of lost my balance~""</font><br/><br/>Utaha finally got up, dusted herself off and said to the guy, <font color=""#f7976a"">""As Kotori-chan said~ We were waiting for anyone else from the agriculture club so they could take our club applications, but it seems we aren't having any luck yet~ Are you in the Agriculture club as well, um...?""</font> She asked the guy's name. </div>"

It wasn't as though he didn't have cause to be stern, though- for one, his lack of decorum from yesterday was still writhing under his skin like some parasite. He shouldn't have allowed the Yamamoto girl to needle him so. He'd almost rendered all of his hard work for naught, because of one hateful bitch--<br/><br/>Mako closed his eyes, breathing deeply.

He supposed that all he could do was try and keep his mind occupied while the police or whomever sussed out the reasoning behind the latest disappearing act. And what better way to do such than by acting? Acting in a play. Acting like there wasn't anything wrong. Acting like he wasn't bothered by what was happening to this town.<br/><br/>Acting, it seemed, was something Mako Moritomi excelled at.</div>"

Cringing at the most likely quite painful sight, Kotori was about to help the tall girl up when she already picked herself up; brushing the accident off as she did.<br/><br/>Keiko, who had remained at her place - possibly because there was no need to stand up after two had already done so, perhaps to escape the fate that had befallen Utaha - reaffirmed what had been said before phrasing the open-ended words of Utaha in a more direct question as to the boy's name. The Second Year introduced himself as Rui Shinichi from Class 2-1 before asking who it was that they were all waiting for - a pertinent question, no doubt. With a bow, Kotori returned the introduction <font color=""green"">""I'm Kotori Shirohane from Class 2-2,""</font> before answering the question - though her earlier assumption that he was an Agriculture Club member had turned out to be wrong on account of the Rui's words.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""We...

He felt a sense of duty towards helping those who were trapped in the Mirror World, he didn't quite understand how they ended up there. Based on the last two, Noboru and now Matthew...

It was mostly mothers, grandmothers and school girls who would flock to make cute things, though there was an occasional embarrassed male. One in particular was not looking so embarrassed, in fact he probably had the most full bag there... He seemed to be middle-aged, short and well-kept hair, and an unchanging expression that showed perseverance. Based on what he was doing, this was probably relevant to his job... Maybe?

He wasn’t even sure how he had gotten dragged into going shopping with Mika and her friend, but he had, and there was no way of backing out of it now. She had promised that she’d buy Sato something if he had went with them (for reasons he didn’t get), and seeing as there happened to be a new electronics store opening, there was no reason to not suffer through some shoe shopping for it.<br/><br/>	When the girls disappeared into the clothing store, Sato begrudgingly followed them in, but just before he went in, he caught a glance of who he thought was Rokoru walking by. It didn’t matter though, and he was soon surrounded by various clothes and shoes and accessories. Girls and (significantly less) guys filled the store to the brim. The sales that were going on seemed to be boosting business well. The sales were probably the reason that Mika had decided to go there, and Sato grew increasingly confused on why he was there. He assumed most of the guys there were dragged there by their girlfriends due to the fact that there appeared to be only girls’ clothing in stock, and Sato was very far from romantically entangled with either girls.<br/><br/>	After a while of waiting around, bored half to death, the girl he didn’t know threw a pair of shorts at his face. He unfolded them to reveal a pair of swimming shorts with a flame design down the right. “Try them on!” Mika encouraged, thrusting him into one of the changing rooms.<br/><br/>	“W-wait, am I even allowed to—“ But the door slammed shut before he could even properly object. Sato looked at the shorts once more. There couldn’t be much harm in trying them on at least. And that’s what he did. He slipped his jeans off and the swim shorts on, and then exited to show them off to the girls. Both of them clapped, and Mika even let out a cheer. His arms flopped to his sides after. “So why am I trying on a lame pair of swim shorts?”<br/><br/>	“Because!” A familiar voice exclaimed from behind him after an awkwardly long pause. Sato turned around on his heel to examine who it came from, and lo and behold, Rento and Yukiteru were standing there. The air Sato breathed suddenly felt like it was stale. He didn’t even know if they were allowed to wear nothing but what you’re trying on. “Golden Week!”<br/><br/>	“Put some clothes on, freaks!” Mika laughed before throwing a shirt she was holding at them. Rento made a show of his shirtlessness before disappearing into the changing room and emerged a second later, adequately clothed. Yuki simply slid on his shirt in an instant.<br/><br/>	Sato shifted his weight onto one hip. “So we—you guys—are going swimming for Golden Week?”<br/><br/>	“We haven’t actually decided on a place yet, but it’s gonna be somewhere we can go swimming!” The girl said, bouncing up and down on her feet a bit.<br/><br/>	“Isn’t it a little too cold to go swimming? Shouldn’t we save that for the summer or something?” Sato asked, looking down at the swimsuit he was wearing. He already had one from last year, but he supposed it couldn’t hurt to have another one. “I dunno if I’d like to go to the beach or whatever in April. Too soon.”<br/><br/>	Mika looked slightly disgruntled, while Yukiteru nodded in agreement. The girl he didn’t know—though, after thinking about it, he was pretty sure she had told him her name at some point—looked briefly distraught before putting on a pouty face. “Fine then,” she said. “You don’t have to come!”<br/><br/>	“N-no, I’d love to hang out with you guys, it’s just that this seems like it wouldn’t really work out. Maybe we can go to Tatsumi Port Island or something.” Before any of them could reply, he ducked into the changing room and slipped on his regular jeans. Rento and Yuki did the same, and they all went to the clerk to pay for them.<br/><br/>	“Wouldn’t it be kinda expensive to go there? Last time I checked, we’re all pretty broke at the moment, ever since that Archery splurge we all went on.” Everybody except the girl Sato didn’t quite know nodded.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Rokoru Ishiara</span><br/>// <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsLTvs2IBp4"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma Mall</a></div><br/><br/>	Rokoru found himself waiting around in the mall, somewhere near a bunch of stores he couldn’t care less about. He knew he wasn’t the most punctual guy around, and he dreaded being chewed out for being a couple minutes late, but it turned out to be Saya who was the one late. The boy stood rather awkwardly by some potted plant, his hands shoved into the pockets of the dull red pants he wore. He wore a black tank-top and his yellow-armed jacket, his face showing obvious signs of sleeplessness. After waiting for a bit longer, Rokoru flipped out his phone and checked for texts again.

Though, he didn't know Matt much but he was a cheerful and non-judgmental guy, someone who would hardly have any enemies. While, he had kept himself from carrying out his own little investigation with the disappearance, he held a gut feeling that it was connected to Noboru's.<br/><br/>Well, it was all quite something to make anyone uncomfortable but on the sunny side, the Golden Week was about to come and that means Elena and his mum needed a few new clothes. Quite conveniently, there was a big sale on so after doing his daily chores and having morning breakfast with his girls at the hospital, he took his sister for a surprise shopping.<br/><br/>-- <br/><br/>In all her years that Elena had been aware of the family's situation, she had never seen her brother care about himself. He would never ever spend on himself if it could be avoided and he was quite a miser and spendthrift when it came to managing finances. Yet for her, he would even buy the stars if he could. Not even once had any of her requests been turned down, in many ways he was a doting father that she couldn't have.<br/><br/>So, as a thank you, she had been saving up her allowance that she was given weekly by him. She hardly needed things for herself, mostly her friends would share with her or other times she'd get it as gifts from thankful boys whom she helped talking with girls. Rather, among her circle she was no better than Alexei. She was quite a penny-pincher and mostly her expenses were very structured.<br/><br/>Though she didn't have the perseverance and sharpness of Alexei, she was very intelligent. Her grades always among the top three in her class and top tier among her peers.<br/><br/>As they turned the corner towards the shopping district, a wide smile appeared on her lips as realization dawned on her. It was discount day and she can surely get something good for her brother with all the savings that she had. Although, the gift was a tricky bit. She knew her brother very well, anything not well priced won't make him content and he would absolutely not get anything flashy or expensive. She also didn't want him to know that both she and his mother knew of his smoking habit and had planned to confront him when he wasn't as burdened as he was now.<br/>He maintained his jiujitsu uniform rather well and he also kept most of the basic supplies up to date. So, it was difficult to get him something. He was also a rather private person so she knew that he won't be having many friends and those who are may not know much about him.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Alexei was lost in his thoughts, imagining the beautiful dress he had seen at the store a few days back. If he was lucky, others may not have picked it up. Walking alongside his baby sister, he realized perhaps, for the first time, that she had grown a lot while he wasn't looking. Standing at around 5'10, she was rather tall for a 14 year old and with natural light auburn hair, she was quite a beauty.<br/><br/>As they hurried towards the clothes shop, they saw a pair of girls crash into another girl and spill her baggage. After a brief exchange, they had hurried off without helping the girl. Almost immediately, the brother-sister duo got down to help. Two pairs of hands, one long and slender and other large and rough, joining hers as they both folded clothes with surprising alacrity and packed in the bags.<br/><br/>A sweet concerned voice then asked the lady who was mumbling to herself as she frantically shoved clothes in the remaining bag<br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""I hope you are alright, Miss.""</font> Elena had raised her left and gently braced the girl's shoulder. While the girl may note that the other pair of hands just continued on expertly, folding the clothes neatly and putting into the bag with amazing speed along with other contents.</div>"

I knew we should have come sooner...""<br/><br/>A tawny haired friend of Leiko's bemoaned their misfortunes as the small group wandered into one of the clothes stores, beholding the chaotic sight of middle aged women wrestling over a sweater, whilst a long formidable queue trailed outside the shop. Normally, Leiko would recoil at the thought of entering such a hostile environment as the Mall on a sale day, but she had heard enough about the event down in the complex to decide that the trip would be worth it for once.<br/><br/>Namely, the abundance of arts and crafts up for sale.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Excuse me,""</font> she announced to her throng of female friends, acutely aware of their dwindling attentions as they eyed the trove of discounted fashion accessories furtively. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'm just going to head to the crafts store for a little while.

Ahhh, that bangle looks so cute!""<br/><br/>Whether or not they had absorbed the information didn't really matter to Leiko as she nodded slightly before taking her leave. It wasn't long before she weaved through the masses of people and finally into the decently crowded crafts store. <br/><br/>Her friends hadn't really questioned Leiko's sudden keen interest in attending the sale today, but if they had, there was a clear and simple answer: Props. The Drama Club was sorely lacking in resources, particularly in the vein of fabrics and tools, and having such a wide selection to choose from would certainly benefit her in the long run. Besides, Drama Club wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">entirely</span> about acting. Technical and labouring work was just as important as the performance itself, after all.<br/><br/>Leiko craned her head down at the presented selection, nodding approvingly as she inspected squares of fabric, before selecting several, varying in colours and textures. She would have to brush up on her sewing skills, although they were somewhat...lacking at the best of times. Maybe there was someone in the Club more interested in design? Bearing this thought in mind, Leiko hummed softly to herself as she packed away the rolls in her basket, but not before spotting an intriguing material tucked away up on one of the higher shelves. Leiko looked at her surroundings briefly to ask for a sales assistant to help her, but the staff appeared to be swamped with the demands of the other customers. Wistfully sighing and wishing she could take advantage of Saya's height (and speaking of, where <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> that girl today?) Leiko instead determined to reach for it herself.<br/><br/>Stretching her muscles as far as they would allow, Leiko balanced on the tips of her toes as her hand attempted to bat at the elusive fabric, but just as her fingertips graced it, her elbow accidentally knocked into one of the other craft materials, causing a fairly sturdy metal set of paints to tumble from their place on the shelf and knock her painfully in the back of her head. <font color=""#fff200"">""Ouch! Damn it!""</font> Leiko cursed, recoiling back as she rubbed the back of her head gingerly. Well, at least her friends hadn't been around to see <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> embarrassing little scene... <br/><br/>And lo and behold, that roll of material was still out of reach. Typical.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Saya Ueno: Ueno Residence</span><br/><br/>By all intents and purposes, today should have been considered as one of Saya's lucky breaks in life. Not only did she get to attend a massive sale clearance in the Mall, but she would get to do so in the company of the esteemed Club President of Archery himself: Rokoru Ishiara. Of course, she knew that he wasn't exactly there of his own volition (Saya was starry eyed, true, but not delusional), but he would be there with her for the day. Alone. Without any club members or pesky rivalries to get in the way of getting to know him better. And boy, did she want to get to know him better. Hundreds of questions and hypothetical scenarios had battered away at her within the past few days, and now she would finally get a chance to have some one-on-one with the man of her dreams. What could possibly go wrong?<br/><br/>The answer to that question was all too apparent as Saya woke up with bone-cracking yawn, and looked at her clock sluggishly.<br/><br/>The clock read 12:00.<br/><br/>The time that she was supposed to meet Rokoru-senpai, on the dot, at the Mall.<br/><br/>A piercing scream rang through the Ueno household, and by the time that her mother had raced up the stairs to investigate the situation, Saya was already halfway through a camisole blouse and jeans.<br/><br/>""Good Heavens Saya, what happened-?""<br/><br/>""How could this be happening? Howwww?!"" Saya whined, oblivious to her mother's presence as she shoved a handful of cosmetics and a brush into her handbag before racing out the door faster than a bullet.<br/><br/>So much for her lucky break.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Saya Ueno: Warakuma Mall</span><br/><br/>Panting and wheezing, Saya had finally reached the Mall, miraculously managing to brush her hair in the process, although there was the unfortunate side-effect of being slightly windswept. But at least she had managed to make it by...30 minutes past the meeting time.<br/><br/>Crap.<br/><br/>Saya tried to hold down her nerves as she breathed in shakily, the air burning slightly through her lungs before she let out a deep exhale. She could do this. She could <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> this.<br/><br/>Summing up every ounce of courage she had, Saya turned the corner and saw Rokoru pacing around by some plants and checking his phone anxiously. He was on time. She was late. On a 'date' that <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> had arranged. This couldn't possibly go any worse.<br/><br/>""Ah...Ishiara-senpai!"" Saya called out nervously, catching his attention with an overhead wave before quickly sprinting over to him. ""I'm so sorry I'm late. Guess I slept through my alarm like an idiot. You're not mad, are you?"" She shot him a wary smile as she brushed a wet strand of hair from her face. ""I'll make it up to you! I'll buy you lunch or something. I mean, since you came out on a Sunday to help me and everything. And I was late, so..."" </div>"

Even so, there was always the possibility of another club member being present - at least, that's what Kotori had thought. At his further words, she looked at him a little surprised - it was a bit odd how he said it, but it seemed that he was trying to be optimistic. Either that, or he just assumed it would be much the same as it had been with Noboru and Matthew'd show up on his own a few days later. As he then announced that he was leaving, Kotori returned the bow; watching him leave before turning back to the girls in the room.<br/><br/>As if taking Rui's leave as a cue, both Keiko and Utaha stood up and announced that they would be going too; mirroring Kotori's thoughts at that moment. Giving a small bow to both of them together with a <font color=""green"">""Goodbye to you two too,""</font> Kotori picked her school bag up from beside the chair she'd sat down in, placing the application form inside as she did, before heading out of the club room and home thereafter.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Mall | Sunday, April 19 2015</span><br/><br/>After having having spent most of the morning minding the shop - her mother had been out to talk with the local tools shop owner about how things were going and if there was anything new and the like - during which time she'd gotten her weekend's worth of homework done already, Kotori was told to spend some time outside - after all, there was a big sale going on and she should go and see if there was anything she liked. With those words, Kotori had headed to the mall - and indeed, there was no shortage of people about.<br/><br/>A little while later, Kotori emerged from a shop armed with two shopping bags and notably more out of breath than she'd expected to be - the sales really were something else, it seemed, and had attracted quite a number of customers. Searching - and by a stroke of good luck, actually finding - an empty bench, Kotori sat down and caught her breath for a moment, placing her shopping bags at her feet. Adjusting her glasses that had exhibited their usual habit of slipping ever so slightly out of their most comfortable position, she looked at the content of her bags - indeed, much like her mother had said, the sales were quite good.<br/><br/>Except that her mother hadn't quite been talking about the grocery store's sales on bread and vegetables which Kotori had taken advantage of and thus had to struggle to obtain between a veritable horde consisting mostly of housewives and the occasional overwhelmed male rather than the clothing store's customers of the day which were far closer to her own age. Still catching her breath after all that, Kotori glanced about the other mall-goers - who consisted of mostly unknown faces, ranging from an elderly couple over a mother and her two children to a number of fellow students, judging by their age, and even a businessman. Naturally, with so many about, the occasional accident wasn't all that surprising - such as a small group of girls that bumped into each other; unbeknownst to Kotori not quite willingly on account of another's involvement therein.<br/><br/>Either way though, she checked her watch and noticed that she still had some time - and remained seated, debating which stores she should check up on before heading home with her shopping.</div>"

Either they were messing around in which he wouldn't care about, or his house was that big that he couldn't hear anything from his room. After an hour of sitting in his room alone he put a book mark in the book and closed it shut. Placing the small book on his desk. He stood up from his chair and looked at the clock in his room. His face showed that he was annoyed, he still had most of the day left and he was already bored. So he decided he would go outside maybe something interesting would be happening. So he exited his room, walked down the long hallway and down the stairs in which he was stopped when a female halted him then started measuring him. He was then handed a piece of paper and was asked if he could go out and get these items. Nodding he walked out of his house in which reluctantly his chauffeur drove him to the mall, which would make many gossip as he left the car with an embarrassed look.<br/><br/>Well all he had to do was get the items and maybe something else for himself, so he told his driver he would call when he needed a ride and watched him drive off. Walking along the store he looked for the correct store and with a few minutes of searching he found the craft store. Walking in, he got a basket for the items, and began searching. It wasn't until the ninth item did he wonder why their tailor needed all this fabric for. Either his parents requested something, or she was running low. Or she ran low on the requested item, many thoughts ran through his head when a loud noise then rang. The voice behind the damn it was unmistakable as well. With a grin plastered on his face he walked towards the sound and saw Leiko and the paint that caused the word to be uttered from her mouth.<br/><br/>He saw her looking at a fabric out of her reach which made him chuckle as he walked over and grabbed it, before holding it out to Leiko with a smile. <font color=""#598527"">""Fancy meeting you here huh Leiko?

What would this day bring about? As she laid there in her sheets, the girl looked up at the ceiling with a blank expression in her face, it felt like she was asleep for a decade, was she hibernating? She thought to herself. Her mind refocused back to better things, she pushed her blankets away and got out of her bed, stretching a few as she stood up. Grabbing her cellphone that was on her bedside table, the girl began to flip through her messages, she could've sworn she got one from a friend of hers an hour ago or two...What time was it anyway? Looking at the top-right corner of her phone, the girl saw that it was already 10:00 in the morning, no surprise there. After checking the time the girl finally found the message and it read:<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Hey, Yan~ Did ya know the mall is having an event today? There's a huge assortment of stuff!

She wasn't looking for a specific one in particular, just one that would nudge her sense of fashion from 'Blank and Bleak' to something with a tad more color. Neon was out of the question though. Digging through the selections some more, she found in the corner of her eye something that stood out. Deciding that she's got nothing to lose, Ayano grabbed the shirt and unfolded it, getting a closer look. Hey, a shirt that actually had a design she liked! It featured a group shot of characters from a game she was playing, with the title being laid out in the center. A smile on her face, Ayano entered the changing room and tried it on, to her surprise, it actually fit! Feeling happy with her choice, Ayano paid for it instantly. New shirt in hand she exited the boutique.

She felt embarrassed to have them gather up her belongings for her but very much appreciated the help nonetheless. Just when the other female who picked up one of the fabrics shoved one person and created a domino effect of people colliding, Shizuka flinched in shock and felt slightly guilty for the people involved.<br/><br/>While she quickly stuffed the last of her fabric back into a bag, a gentle hand placed itself upon her shoulder with a voice of concern. Her gaze averted from the plastic bag to the gorgeous, foreign female at her side, who she couldn't help but stare for a moment even if the other may not be able to tell.

A good day for shopping in the mall. There was some kind of event and the place was bustling, even for Warakuma's standards. Utaha seemed a bit happier than usual, if that was at all possible, as she walked through the mall and singed a <a href=""https://youtu.be/WyJJqPskHyg"" rel=""nofollow"">certain tune</a> below her breath, something only a few people might be able to hear. It wasn't an original song, though, it was a song of her favorite idol, which she admired and was her inspiration to become an idol herself. Some people may be able to recognize it too, some people did, as they looked at Utaha while she got past them, wondering how Utaha could sing the song in a way resembling so much the original. <br/><br/>Still, her rhythm was interrupted after she saw a girl falling down. She was about to go there and help, but after seeing that other people were already there helping her up, she decided against it. Instead, she returned to her shopping. Of course, she was worried about what happened to the girl, but there was no need to worry, as long as someone was with her. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Happy happy happy crescent-o~""</font> She resumed her singing, walking towards the nearest clothes shop. It would be great if she found some kind of clothes that would actually fit her, instead of having to order them through the internet. It was a lot more of fun seeing the clothes in the actual store than just browsing through the web page of some store.<br/><br/>After some browsing was done, though, it was obvious. They didn't have any sizes that would fit her well. All the extra large sizes were more meant for chubby and fat people, and made Utaha look like some kind of tent since she couldn't fill out the extra space. Well, that much should have been obvious. Utaha let out a sigh after getting out of the store. <font color=""#f7976a"">""No luck here either, huh~? Oh, well! I should buy some food now that I am here~ Food, food~!""</font> Utaha hummed. <br/><br/>And then, she spotted Keiko. Utaha was happy to see her there, though in a town like Warakuma, spotting each other in somewhere like a mall wasn't such an odd ocurrance. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Keiko-chan~! Hello~!""</font> Utaha waved happily at her, and loudly, making more than one person turn around to see what the fuss was about. Utaha decided to approach her, even if it was only to say hello, given that she still needed to finish her shopping in the mall. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Hey~! How are you doing?""</font> </div>"

As such, she was almost of a mind to get back up and see if there were any less crowded shops - a hope she knew was somewhat faint, given the amount of people - when a familiar voice could be heard; the tall owner of said voice not being very hard to spot. Utaha, one of the two girls she'd met at the Agriculture Club, had spotted the other, Keiko, judging by her words and exuberant waving.<br/><br/>It took Kotori a moment before she realised that the girl was, in fact, coming closer - prompting her to take a look at the person sitting beside her. <font color=""green"">""Eh?

It had taken her a moment to recognise her outside of her school uniform - and long enough for Utaha to reach her intended. Barely stifling her suprise, Kotori got up from her seat on the same bench as Keiko to give a quick bow to the two. <font color=""green"">""Ah, good day to you, Kashiwagi-senpai, Kobashigawa-san,""</font> she greeted them - whilst at the same time hoping she wasn't interrupting the two in something they had planned for the day or whatnot.</div>"

Practically nobody called him that, except for a certain Saya Ueno. He scratched at the back of his neck as the shorter girl approached with her hand held up in a wave. As she approached, and while telling him the reason why she was so late, Rokoru gazed at her from top to bottom. He wasn’t pleased with the fact that she looked like she had done it all in a wind tunnel. And she was out of breath, which was likely a side-effect of her running late. Though, it wasn’t like he could judge, considering he had rushed to get to the mall as well. Rokoru had completely forgotten about the whole thing until literally minutes before he had to be there, and being the type of guy that despises doing laundry, the only “clean” shirt he had was the black tanktop, and even that had a rather large stain on the side. His jacket covered it rather nicely at least.<br/><br/>“<font color=""red"">Don’t worry,</font>” He interrupted her before she could continue. “<font color=""red"">As long as you follow through with that getting me something to eat. I’m starved.</font>”<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">[- - - - -]</div><br/>The two came out from the first food store they had came across, and after having been mistaken for a couple twice, emerged with some fresh eats. It was pretty good food, to say the very least. Rokoru took a swig from a bottle of soft drink (he had just grabbed the first thing he saw, and he hadn’t fully registered what it actually was until later), and stifled a belch afterwards. As they consumed the spoils of the ordeal, the teen reflected on the day and, by extension, Ueno. She seemed nice enough but he just couldn’t get a solid opinion on her. Their interactions had been limited to her being incredibly nervous around him while they were both in the range, so it wasn’t like he could really draw from that. He had asked a little about her but that proved rather fruitless when Rokoru realized that there was a reason nobody he knew really had anything to say: Saya was a second year, he was a third year.<br/><br/>	He cocked his head to the side so that it rested on his raised shoulder, and stared at Saya for a bit. What the day was going to exactly entail, Rokoru didn’t know. Obviously they were going to shopping, but for what? Where? Why? It didn’t really matter to him, but he felt like he needed to know for some reason.<br/><br/>	Rokoru ran his tongue over his teeth before asking. “<font color=""red"">So what are we hunting for through this crowded mess for today, Ueno? Clothes, accessories, lady shit? Or do you just want to hang out under the guise of spending your hard-earned cash?</font>”<br/></div>"

Just before she could think of a response for her offer, her older brother had taken her place to assist Shizuka instead. As Elena was leaving, Shizuka told her a <span class=""bb-i"">Thank you</span> once more and waved her good bye. When she made up her mind on a response, her gaze faced downward in a timid manner. <font color=""violet"">""Eh... Well...

Seeing that it was being held up by her hand, she assumed it as a sign of giving the item back to the raven haired one. With a soft smile and a bow of appreciation, Shizuka takes it from her grasp and places it neatly into the plastic bag in her arms.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""A-Alright... I hope this is all...""</font>, the raven haired female muttered in a soft whisper while double checking the contents of the bag in her arms, as she started towards the nearest deposit counter.

Was he trying to prove something to her or something?<br/><br/>Before Leiko could reply, he made a rather poor joke about her gaining a concussion from the paints whilst examining the dent that the impact had made.

There was a persistent redness that stained her cheeks as they left the food outlet, particularly when people misunderstood her current relationship with her senior, but Saya couldn't help but feel that Rokoru was a little too <span class=""bb-i"">quick</span> in correcting people. But of course, lying and actually calling themselves a couple would just be wrong and....how would Hama-chan say it? Erroneous, that was it.

Her stomach dropped at his last sentence, where he implied there was something <span class=""bb-i"">more</span> to the trip, and it was all she could do not to erupt into a fit of flames as she shook her head wildly and let out a loud and awkward laugh. ""What? G-Guise? Oh <span class=""bb-i"">Senpai,</span> don't be silly!""<br/><br/>Saya was reminded of her own terrible acting skills as even her own laugh sounded painful to her ears, deciding to quickly end it with a clearing of her throat before swiftly focusing back on the subject. ""W-Well, obviously I want to hit the shops and get some clothes and stuff. Hanging out with you just happens to be a bonus, you know?"" Her fingers played with the bangles on her wrists as she spoke, trying to act more confident than she felt in the older's male's presence.

Well at least she smiled back, his smiles were sometimes true ones, this one being one of them. <font color=""#598527"">""I guess we aren't close enough to use first names yet huh? Oh well I'll hear you say Sieg one day. And fair enough maybe I did overdo the whole worrying thing, but I did mean that I hope you are okay you know.""</font><br/><br/>He again smiled, more friendly than cocky or teasing though. A true smile would be simple to say. He watched her take the kind offer and place the fabric in her basket without giving him hassle about how she could have done it. Instead commented on his own purchasing of fabric, yet at the mention of this his face frowned a bit as he looked at his own purchase. He quickly changed it back to a big grin however. <font color=""#598527"">""Well of course, how else am I going to get these awesome shark hoodies?""</font> He said flipping the hood up and chuckling slightly before putting it back down. <font color=""#598527"">""Nah one of my families tailors asked me to grab this since I was going out."" </font>Sieg said now doing a fake smile while really he was annoyed inside.<br/><br/>Well since she commented on his purchase, its only fair for him to do the same. The telling sign was a more devious grin as he looked at her. The look that just shouted trouble. <font color=""#598527"">""And what about you? Are the fabrics to make costumes for drama? I expect my dress to be dazzling oh dear little sister of mine.""</font> Sieg spoke mentioning the events at their first little ramming of the heads. Well more so her ramming and him just teasing.

It reminded him of the first time he’d met her. It’s not like she had that much of an improvement in how she behaved around him (namely, how she got laughably tied up in herself when he did anything to or with her), but at least she didn’t whip off at high speeds when he talked to her. There was always that nervous edge to her words whenever they did talk though. Like she was a kitten facing a rottweiler.<br/><br/>Ueno had said basically what he had thought she’d reply with, but with some compliments thrown in, and Rokoru was not one to complain when his ego got stroked. He nodded at both of them, and when she finished with a smile (and a push towards actually getting started on that shopping), Rokoru couldn’t help but reply with his own toothy grin. After throwing in the remnants of what they’d been eating into the trash, the teen found himself up on his feet and already a few steps towards where all the boutiques were.  As he waited for Ueno to lead the way, he decided that he should strike up a conversation that revolved around something other than how he knew she just wanted to spend a day with him, a fact he was pleased with despite his aggressive tone he’d used. Something to talk about would stave off the boredom of shopping Rokoru anticipated.<br/><br/>The boy shifted his weight onto one hip and folded his arms. He eyed Ueno down once more as he tried to think of a good topic; something they’d probably have in common. That wasn’t archery, considering that’s all he’d basically ever talked to her about outside of a few occasions…<br/><br/>“<font color=""red"">Do you play videogames? Or like work out… or anything?</font>” Rokoru blurted out.

For those first few years he was king of his middle school; he was the top of his class, he pretty much ruled over any and everyone and anyone who didn’t get in line were left in his wake. The sudden thought of the girl who was actually left in his wake suddenly weighed his thoughts down, while he enjoyed the sensation of power over people’s lives that he had Ito never wanted to anyone to actually get hurt. He had shut himself off from the world for a long time, even to his parents, because of his actions and in doing so withdrew into the persona of this person that he never wanted to be. <br/><br/>His thoughts were interrupted when he ran full force into someone causing both of them to fall to the ground. Once he regained his bearings he took a look at the unfortunate soul that he ran into and what he saw caused his nose to crinkle up in a snobbish manner. The greyish blue hoodie with what appeared to be a cartoony looking shark for the hood seemed overly childish to him which instantly formed his opinion of the boy wearing it.

His intentions, however questionable, appeared to be good as he flashed an honest smile at her, and it was enough to crumble Leiko's hostile aura around the older male.<br/><br/>The boy went on to answer her question regarding the materials, and Leiko was briefly surprised by his answer, until she remembered that the Kasumi family were quite well off, from what she heard. There appeared to be quite a few higher class families moving into Warakuma recently, which was a little strange, but considering that Warakuma was currently caught in a wave of renovation, it wasn't <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> strange an occurrence. <br/><br/>Before Leiko could comment on it, the conversation was quickly drawn back to Leiko's own reasons for purchasing the materials, in which she was inclined to agree with his reasoning with a short nod. An amused smile pressed on her lips as he followed up with a 'little sister' reference, to which she answered with a small chuckle. <font color=""yellow"">""Not quite. Although you did make quite a convincing Ismene,""</font> she replied with a coy tilt of her head. <font color=""yellow"">""But you would be correct in assuming that these materials are indeed for Drama Club.

His questions in particular were about <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> and her interests, and despite her efforts, Saya couldn't help but feel pleased that he wanted to know her better too. A small, cynical voice in her head warned her that Rokoru was probably just wasting time, but Saya, the ever-optimist, chose to ignore her darker thoughts and focused on Rokoru's question.<br/><br/>""Umm, video games? Not...really,"" she answered with a brewing feeling of dread at her own honesty. Dammit, was that an opportunity for common interests that she just dismissed? ""B-But uhh, I hold the high score for Dance Dance Revolution at the Arcade! That counts as a video game, right?!"" She answered with an earnest smile. ""And it counts as working out too, you know? Venting out all my energy with physical activities always feels good, so I try to hit the gym at least once a week. I used to go to volleyball in school too, but I gave that up this year, because it kinda clashed with Archery and stuff. But I still try to at least work in some exercise somewhere in my schedule...""

""What about you, Senpai? What do you like to do besides Archery?"" She asked with a keen cock of her head.</div>"

And DR, and whatever physical activities she did. He was especially pleased to hear that the girl had specifically chosen Archery over Volleyball. Considering she’d joined during his reign, he considered it a success on his part. The club’s state was something he prided himself on; it became a lot more organized when he assumed position of president. The other third years— he had asked them about it— had said the difference was, if there was any, was marginal to them. But there was an higher number of recruits when the season started, which could only mean that he was doing <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> right. He’d liked to think he was doing all of it right, but even he couldn’t fool himself into believing that. For example, Ueno herself had basically panicked herself half to death when she tried to hand in her forms. Was he really that intimidating? Maybe it was just the fact that he was a third year and she was a second year. Older students are intimidating.<br/><br/>Rokoru was drawn out of his thoughts when she asked him a question about himself. He’d really only been <span class=""bb-i"">sorta</span> paying attention to what she was actually saying beyond the DDR thing, which didn’t actually mean much to him. Rokoru hated games like that, and it only struck him, as Ueno was still waiting for him to answer her question, that she might try to rope him into playing it. Possibly with her. It’d be embarrassing in more ways than one.<br/><br/> <font color=""red"">“Besides Archery?”</font> Rokoru started, as he shuffled through a rack of shirts he had stopped by. He hoped that the store he had started browsing through was one of Ueno’s destinations, since by the time he had continued, he had his eye on two shirts already. The shopping fever had hit when he remembered that he really needed some new clothes. <font color=""red"">“I dunno. I go running sometimes, and I suppose I like it. I really do it more to keep up with myself— you get what I mean? Ehh, forget it.”</font> His words were slow in contrast to hers, and he only looked back at Ueno after decided he didn’t actually want anything from the rack. <font color=""red"">“I’m into music and shit. Rock’s pretty sweet. You like it? Rock?”</font><br/><br/>	The boy took a step towards Ueno, closing the gap between them a bit. People kept rushing past them and in between them, so he felt that it’d be best if he was close enough so that people would not do that. Just an arms reach away, close enough so that she could see his tongue run over his front teeth like he had just eaten peanut butter. But not quite close enough to notice the very slight raise of the corner of his lip. People walked around them instead of through them after he took that step.<br/></div>"

She would have loved to hang out with them for a bit longer, and told them so too, but unfortunately, she had to get to shopping. <br/><br/><font color=""#f7976a"">""I'd love to stay and talk for a bit more, but I reaaaally need to go and buy some things for tonight's dinner~!""</font> She sounded truly disheartened at the thought of it, but soon, her dishearted-ness was changed by another big smile after she got what she thought was an incredible idea. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Oh, why don't you come with me to buy some food for the week?

It was at times like this that she was glad she had such a big body, so that she could carry all of he bags. And then, she tripped over a little gap in the floor. <font color=""#f7976a"">""A-Ah!""</font> Utaha fell down, face first yet again. And it was at times like this that she wished her body was a bit more smaller and that she was a bit less clumsy. At least no bags could be crushed, since she was carrying nothing.

At Keiko's question whether they were here for shopping purposes, Kotori nodded before glancing back to the bags she'd placed beside the bench. Judging by Utaha's words and actions, she was quite happy to see the two of them - only to reprimand Kotori for calling her 'Kashiwagi-senpai'. Yet before she could even apologise, both Keiko and Kotori were drawn into a sudden hug by Utaha.

Upon hearing that, Kotori looked at her watch - she did indeed still have some time and hadn't been sure what to do with it. Furthermore, Utaha was asking them for their help - so whilst she'd have to head home herself in a while, she could at least lend some assistance for the time being. Nodding in affirmation, Kotori looked over to Keiko to see what she'd do - at least until a sudden cry drew her attention away.<br/><br/>A worried expression came across Kotori's face as she saw Utaha laying face down and outstretched on the ground. <font color=""green"">""Are you alright?

Leiko stepped back in surprise, nearly dropping her basket of crafting materials as she watched the scene unfold before her.<br/><br/>The dark haired stranger was the first to speak as he rose from the ground, crinkling his nose in some disdainful manner as he made some snide comment on Sieghardt's clothing. The fact that the boy had not only rudely interrupted their conversation, but had followed through with an insult was not lost on Leiko, and a shadow of disdain crossed her features as Kasumi decided to retort. If anything, his response was just as exasperating as the other boy's, and Leiko considered for a moment whether she could slip away and let the two males have it out. <br/><br/>Of course, nothing was that easy, as Kasumi roped her into the conversation with a cheeky grin before announcing the two of them as 'sisters'. Unfortunately, it appeared the sibling inside joke was going to stick for longer than she cared for, and it was all Leiko could do not to groan aloud. <br/><br/>The bespectacled male made some kind of snappy comeback in retort to Kasumi's words, before focusing his attentions on Leiko herself, choosing to inquire her about her name, although in a slightly less caustic manner. <br/><br/>Leiko looked over at the boy directly as he asked his question, her expression unflinching with a curve of a frown on her lips. <font color=""yellow"">""Leiko Hamada.

Umm, like rock music?"" If it hadn't been clear that Saya wasn't exactly paying attention, it certainly was now as she looked up at the older male with a slightly embarrassed grin. ""Umm, it's OK, I guess? As long as it has a good beat. I don't really like the ones where they scream a lot, you know?""<br/><br/>She brushed her fringe out of her eyes as she spoke, suddenly feeling a lot smaller compared to someone like Rokoru. Was this working out? Did they even have anything in common at all? The possibility of becoming a drag on Rokoru's time was almost too much to think about, and she beat down the uneasy thoughts with an unrelenting determination as she walked over to where the sale on spring dresses were being held. Expectedly most, if not all girls and women were at the mall today, considering the up and coming Golden Week that hung over the horizon. For Saya, her wardrobe was far to outdated to be considered acceptable, so the event was a good an excuse as any to work on a new look. <br/><br/>After looping a couple of colourful and cute dresses over her arm, Saya walked over to where Rokoru stood and opened her mouth to ask him a question that quickly died on her lips as soon as it had arrived. Over Rokoru's shoulder, there was a familiar group hanging around in the store, the excited babble of female voices drowning over the reluctant males that resided with them. It took Saya a moment to realize where she recognised the faces from, and the blood quickly drained from her face as she looked back over at Rokoru hesitantly. ""Umm...aren't those people in Archery Club?"" She whispered over at Rokoru with a slightly worried frown. ""Umm...do you...do you think we should go?""  <br/></div>"

She waved her hand in a manner to show that it was alright and spoke in a rattled tone, <font color=""violet"">""I-It's quite alright, I-I should have asked earlier as well.

Occasional nods were given as a sign of acknowledgment from the shorter, petite girl while she waited for the opportunity to reply to the other, after he was done with his piece, of course. As an empty bench was caught in sight, Shizuka approached it along with Alexei and gently placed the bag down before taking her own seat.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Oh! Um...

Finding a new topic to talk about instead, Shizuka suddenly recalled about the card the man was about to hand over to her.

Now that he thought about it more, his whole shtick outside of archery would probably be music. Not just rock, but everything. The entirety of music. That was his interest.

As expected, she had taken him to a place where they didn’t carry any men’s clothes, and it was just a sea of bright colors and thin-on-materials-but-still-really-expensive garments. He also spotted a few familiar faces but swallowed that idea as soon as it came. They already knew he was being leashed on a pseudo-date with Ueno, but if they were to catch them while they were out, it’d be… unpleasant. Not embarrassing or anything, but there was no doubt in his mind that they would harass him a bit before they could leave.<br/><br/>Rokoru realized that Ueno had returned to his side. And was looking at him. His neck snapped to face her, and when he did, she asked if the people from Archery were in fact from Archery. Rokoru nodded in response, and straightened his back. She seemed disgruntled over it, and she even asked him if they should leave. He wasn’t against leaving by any means but his curiosity took the best of him. <font color=""red"">”Why? You don’t want any of the stuff you picked out? Or do you not like those guys? I don’t care whether we leave or not, so if you don’t wanna stay, we can go somewhere else.

He barely glossed over the decor, the double doors, the strange patron who stood before said doors. He knew without looking that his attire had changed to a more formal ensemble. No, what he really cared about was the shadowy patrons that shared the room with him.<br/><br/>The number hadn't changed- twenty figures, counting himself. He knew this fact like he knew the back of his hand, or the pace of his heartbeats. But there was a new trend slowly emerging- a number of the figures were steadily gaining more defined features, going from indistinct shades in a vaguely human shape to sharply-outlined shadows. With a bit more definition, or more time to observe, he might have even been able to identify some of the shadowy patrons. They looked frighteningly familiar if he looked at them in just the right way... <br/><br/>But he knew this dream well- he was here for as long as was needed, and no longer.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter...""</font> The girl went on, as though she hadn't noticed him.

He glared at the girl at the head of the table, as though to intimidate her into giving up the answers he craved.

Farewell, for now... I look forward to seeing you again.""</font><br/><br/>Mako sighed as his vision faded, a signal that the dream was ending. He had had this dream numberless times since he first moved here to Warakuma. Nine years of a singular question always worrying away at the back of his mind. And still, it seemed there was no answer coming.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">One day, I will find out what all this means,</span></font> he thought, as the dream finally slipped away.

It was a rather lovely day, as though to offset the frustrating occurrence that had... well, occurred this morning. That dream always did manage to put Mako in a piss-poor mood. If there's one thing Mako hated, it was a puzzle he was unable to solve. And this puzzle had been tormenting him for years, now. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">If I could just recognize one of the other people, I could ask them about it.

He sighed again, before straightening his back, a calm smile creeping onto his face.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Ah, well.

Drama-tan and Sieg he recognized from the Drama Club. The third member of the party he was somewhat lost on, in terms of identifying him.

Shrugging internally, he walked up to Leiko and her current companion, waving cheerily as he passed into their sphere of awareness.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Hello, Leiko!

An offer to hang out at a newly opened fast food place was suggested by her small circle of friends but as usual, the shy student politely rejected the offer with the reason of having some sort of appointment she had to attend to. This '<span class=""bb-i"">appointment</span>' that she always had to attend to after class referred to the part time job at the cosplay cafe. While she felt guilty this had to be hidden away even from her closest friends, she was always afraid of how they would respond in terms of finding out about her true passion.<br/><br/>This was evident if one would observe her during the days that the Anime/Manga Club was active, as she would slow down her walking pace while passing the club room and she would longingly gaze toward the room's windows.

She was careful to this extent in concealing her identity, she'll never know if a classmate or a student at the school would catch her entering the cafe after all. The set of wigs and contact lenses were varied each time to match the theme for the week and for this week, it involved French maids and butlers with guns like some sort of mafia. Not like the civilians would see the currently blond girl in that silly costume, not until the cafe anyway. Some of these themes were questionable at times but the customers weirdly appreciate them either way.<br/><br/>While quickly pacing onto the direction of the cosplay cafe, her uncovered eyes sight a male, presumably of similar age group, in a tattered shirt. Her seamstress side screamed at her to go over there and offer to fix up the barely usable shirt, which she actually acted on, approaching him with no hesitance like a whole different person from the ordinary Shizuka. <font color=""violet"">""Hello there, would you perhaps be interested in me helping you repair your shirt?

Which was good news in some ways, honestly, but still something worthy of concern for the high schooler. There had been rather a lot of these disappearances lately, and it was starting to become disconcerting. Who was perpetrating these kidnappings? And what purpose did it serve, when they just kept giving them back? The people he took were unlikely to have any money to pay a ransom. And none of the people appeared hurt or injured upon returning, despite their hospital stays.<br/><br/>Mako shook his head as he stood, getting ready to head to Boxing Club.

There was a strange lack of motivation in the boy, as he was usually fairly dedicated enough to force himself to attend Archery or whatever. Missing one day seemed trivial after his near-perfect attendance over the time he’s been in the Archery club. So when he finally worked up the energy to get up, the teen made his way down to the front entrance and walked away from the school, which felt vaguely wrong when he noticed a few familiar faces headed towards the range. And he even stopped himself in his tracks when he noticed a particularly familiar face.<br/><br/>Not anyone of any real relevance to him, but he had known the guy that approached him since Day 1 of attending Warakuma High, and he seemed nice enough. So Sato nodded along when the boy talked to Sato about how he noticed he was leaving instead of heading off to Archery. And he nodded when he suggested attending anyway, and he nodded when he was dragged off to the range by the arm. <br/><br/>And he nodded when he saw a rather common scene unfolding. A bunch of the third-years were crowded around a section of the shooting range, likely doing some kind of tournament thing they had done a week before. It seemed third-year exclusive however, and Sato <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> did not feel like dealing with that kind of stuff at the moment. So he plopped down against whatever wall he found himself sitting against and stared around the range. Rokoru was wondering about the place, his usually cold eyes peering about for something (or someone), while Mika and her new-found crew of to-be revolutionaries where laughing about while lazily practicing. Yet another slow day. For the third years, at least. Most of the first years were still motivated enough to consistently practice hard, and some of the particularly dedicated second and third year students were tutoring them. Everyone else was either lazing about or spectating/participating in the pseudo-tournament.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Rokoru Ishiara</span><br/>// <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-Hv_SjVt3Y"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma High, Archery Range</a></div><br/>Having woken up late for school (a thing that his parents didn’t taken kindly to), Rokoru had rushed on his uniform, downed the quickest breakfast he could muster, and ran to school as fast as he could. In the process he had forgotten one of the key things he always took with him to Archery team: his bow. Naturally, the range had its own equipment for everyone to use, but Rokoru always thought they were all shoddy in varying ways and affected his shooting. He had bought his own a while ago, and to say the least, he was far from regretting.<br/><br/>Rokoru was pretty against using the school bows after having used his own for a while, so he resigned himself to simply helping out his underclassmen. Some of the newer club members were still struggling, so he figured that it’d be a good use of time. The well-being of the club was high in his priorities, and upping the general skill level of the club was a part of its well-being to him.</div>"

She patted her hand against Noboru's chest. It felt...odd. IT didn't feel like a fabric, it felt more...squishy. She poked a few times without looking, and took a squeeze. Slowly turning her head, she looked up to Noboru. Her face turned A red to contrast her blue hair.<br/><br/><font color=""cyan"">Uh.. uh uh uh... oh.</font> She buried her face in her hands and started raising her voice. <font color=""cyan"">Noboru put on a shirt please!

He got angry and started raising his own voice while trying to fumble with his shirt. Each muscle of his involuntarily flexed, his pecs bouncing up and down. The sweat from the jog to the mall made his muscles glow, and gave a small shine. Trying to put on the first shirt he had bought, it ripped, falling to the ground.<br/><br/><font color=""navy"">This is all your fault! You should have left the shirt alone!

Hisako finally looked up, only to realize her grave mistake. The blood poured out of her nose, running down her lips, looking like scarlet lipstick. She quickly covered her nose, not letting the others see.</div>"

One for financial records, schedules, school, etc. Ever since her grandfather died a few years back, she had to look after the shrine by herself. Her father offered to pick her up and return home but she refused. No way she was going back to the family household. The reason for that...would save that for another time.<br/><br/>Anyway, Michiko was heading to the book store when she saw people gathering around for some reason. Moreover, she heard somebody screaming. Curious, she walked towards where the crowd of people to find out what was going on. Two young men, one of them was not wearing a shirt for some reason, she recognized to be from her highschool were posing ridiculously. She noticed two girls there too and their nose were bleeding. Michiko noticed other people in the crowd holding their noses. She recalled these kind of scenes happen in anime and manga but never thought it was possible to happen in reality. Michiko wondered why her nose was bleeding. Maybe it was because she was focusing more on the weirdness of the scene unfolding in front of her instead of the two young men in their silly poses. The shrine maiden fought back her urge to laugh. The security guards should really come soon before things get even weirder.<br/><br/>Michiko went over to the blonde girl, who was wearing some kind of unique outfit, who was still covering her face. <br/><span class=""bb-i"">Is this what people call...cosplay? </span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Are you alright?""</span> asked Michiko with a look of concern on her face.<br/>She then gave a pack of tissues to the girl.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""You should wipe that nosebleed before it ruins your outfit.""</span><br/><br/></div>"

Meanwhile, Rui who had disappeared into the mall was turning up around the 'culture' section where the music store he visited was. Just outside the main building was a cosplay cafe, there were very few in these kinds of areas, but with stores like Animate beginning to open around here, something like this would only naturally follow suit.

""I'm kinda nervous about Archery right now actually. I didn't go on Friday...and I haven't really practiced or anything since I had that mad moment of luck..."" Should she bail again? It wouldn't look particularly good for her if she did, but making a fool of herself seemed worse too...<br/><br/>""Well, you can always come shopping with us instead?"" Her friend suggested sympathetically, but that only caused Saya to remember that she had barely any money left after her outing with Rokoru the day before. Not only had she splurged on more clothes than she could fit in her room, but she had treated him to the occassional snack and beverage, if only to help him tolerate the trip. If she spent any more any time soon, she would have to start working more regularly at her parents' place, and Saya felt like she had little free time as it stood.<br/><br/>""No, it's fine.

Deciding on her usual lane (hey, familiarity was good, right?), she picked a bow from her quiver and assumed her shooting stance, making an extra effort to beat down her nerves and stop looking so darn <span class=""bb-i"">worried</span> about shooting a target. Just as she pulled the string taut however, she noticed her neighbour land a clean, impressive hit on their own target. Letting out a low whistle at the impressive shot, Saya looked over to compliment the person in an attempt to become more friendly with her clubmates. ""Wow, that was really good.

He leaned back in his chair, taking a sip of his soda as he looked out his window. He paused for a moment, staring at his reflection. The bruise on his upper-cheek was still there, of course. The boy briefly wondered how long it would take for it to disappear.<br/><br/>Hunching back over the desk, he decided that it didn't really matter. At least not as much as his right wrist, which was now wrapped up in compression-bandages. <br/><br/>With a stubborn frown, he picked up his pencil again with his left hand. Putting the tip to paper, he fought to answer the next math question, his hand refusing to cooperate with him. It was a simple question, but it took him a full minute to get his answer down.<br/><br/>Sitting back, he stared at his writing. It looked like it belonged to a three-year-old who was missing its thumbs. With an exasperated sigh, he tossed the pencil across the room and sunk into his chair, hand running through his hair.<br/><br/>As Toma eyed the paper, his door was knocked on. He looked over, to see his father standing at the doorway. Toma, tired from Track club, immediately felt himself waken, and he sat up, an uncertain look on his face. It wasn't often that his father left his workroom, and it was even more uncommon for him to come up to Toma's room -- when he had something to say, he always said it during supper.<br/><br/>""Hey, Toma. Do you have a minute?"" the man said with something of a sheepish smile, though it wasn't very noticeable.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Um, sure,""</font> Toma said, turning around in his seat to face his father better. <font color=""#f26522"">""What's wrong?""</font> He stared at his father's face, and was surprised with what he saw. The usually stone-faced man looked as his son often did -- disheveled and tired. <br/><br/>""Good,"" he said with a small smile. ""I promise I won't take too much of your time."" He stepped further into the room, scratching the back of his neck. ""I, uh... are you okay? Your cheek, I mean.""<br/><br/>Toma was somewhat in shock, seeing his normally unwavering father acting like this. The question snapped him out of his stupor. ""Oh, yeah, no, it's fine. It only hurts a bit when I touch it. And smile, I guess.""<br/><br/>His father gave a small, forced laugh. ""That's good."" He paused again, looking like he had a weight on his shoulders. ""I... I wanted to say sorry. For hitting you.""<br/><br/>The boy's eyes widened as he realized that his father felt guilty; even enough to cause him to lose sleep, by the looks of it. Toma had put both of his parents through hell because of his own idiocy. He quickly pushed himself off of his chair and hugged his father tightly.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Don't worry about it,""</font> he said with a laugh. <font color=""#f26522"">""You shouldn't be sorry about disciplining your kid when he acts like an ass. It's fine.""</font> He let go and stepped back, a reassuring smile on his face.<br/><br/>His father gave a frown. ""It's not fine. I shouldn't have hit you. I--""<br/><br/>Toma cut him off. ""You live and you learn then, I guess. No use in spending all your time thinking about the past, right?"" He gave his father a bright smile. <br/><br/>The man opened his mouth to respond, but thought twice and returned a small, relieved smile. ""Okay, I'll let you get back to work then."" He paused. ""I love you, Toma.""<br/><br/>""Love you too,"" Toma answered. As his father walked out of the room, he didn't look as tired.<br/><br/>What the hell? Why had his father done the apologizing and he the forgiving? Senseless.<br/><br/>As Toma closed the door, he felt anger well up inside him. He wanted to break something, preferably himself. He had to be <span class=""bb-i"">better.</span><br/><br/>Throwing a tantrum wouldn't do anything, so he picked up his thrown pencil and sat back down, ready to continue struggling with his left hand.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">April 20th, After School</span><br/><br/>Harvester had turned up after being missing for a few days. While Toma hadn't felt as desperate to find the boy whom he had never met nor seen as he had with Noboru, he still did a bit of searching. It was nice to know the guy was okay.<br/><br/>More worrisome was the fact that two similar apparent kidnappings had happened in a short span of time. The circumstances surrounding both the disappearances and reappearances were equally mysterious. The whole thing had Toma's attention.<br/><br/>But for now, there was one other, slightly more pressing issue: Golden Week. A <span class=""bb-i"">full week</span> of no school. Toma was already having trouble keeping busy. If he didn't figure things out quickly, this next week would be downright awful. It's not like he had a ton of friends here that he could make plans with -- beyond Aiko, it was hard to call anyone else anything more than acquaintances. It wasn't exactly how he had hoped the new school year to begin. Had he not been friendly and open enough? Maybe. He had been sort of quiet and broody the past several days.<br/><br/>Something to work on and fix, then.<br/><br/>Another thing to work on: finding a job. That was getting desperate. Toma was running stupidly low on money, lower than he had ever been since his first paycheck several years ago. And of course, working would be a good way to spend Golden Week.<br/><br/>So Toma found himself wandering around Warakuma again, walking into stores and politely asking if there were any job openings. <br/><br/>A dozen 'no''s later, the boy found himself standing outside of a small convenience store, a cold soft drink in his left hand. He held the can up and pressed it against the bruise on his cheek, giving a little sigh from both the cold and exasperation. The bruise had begun yellowing out, and would be gone completely soon enough. His wrist, however, was a little worse off than that. He still couldn't move it. Clearly he had done worse than simply sprain it, as he had originally thought. <br/><br/>With only his left hand, Toma nimbly cracked the drink open, and took a sip. That was the one advantage of not being able to use his good hand: he was getting fairly adept at using his left. He certainly wasn't ambidextrous, but being forced to use his weak hand for almost a full weak now, he found it cool that he could see an improvement.<br/><br/>The boy's phone vibrated in his pocket, causing him to put his drink down and fish it out. A text from another male in his class, with pictures attached. He opened them.<br/><br/><a href=""https://media.8ch.net/ban1/src/1417240262803.png"" rel=""nofollow"">What.</a><br/><br/>An... <span class=""bb-i"">interesting</span> scene.

Which implied they weren't too embarrassed by the mob surrounding them. So maybe they were okay with the pictures being sent around?<br/><br/>Toma sent the compromising photos to Aiko. <font color=""#f26522""><span class=""bb-i"">""is this something he usually does""</span></font> was the message.<br/><br/></div>"

It wasn't hard to find her in the crowded stall since her height and his viewing angle were much different than the others. Sorting out a few things that she had intented to buy, they made their way to the counter and made the pay out. The cashier handed her another bag and called it complimentory so Alexei left it at that.<br/><br/>The smile on his baby sister's face was enough to allay any queries he may have had on the sudden gift. After getting a few sandpapers and few other supplies from the hardware store they went home. The spree had cost him about hundred thousand yen but he'd put it down as a time well spent.<br/><br/>Elena on the other hand was extremely happy with her purchase of the day. They were all set for golden week now.<br/><br/>His knives were getting dull and with his obstinate nature to cook for his sister he needed them in peak condition. He immediately got to work as they got home. Affixing the rougher sandpaper on the makeshift block he had made himself. The Yamagiba and Deba were his primary ones so they needed to be frighteningly sharp. The Usuba could be done later. Elena on the other hand got busy with adjusting the clothes and ironing the ones that were washed. Usually, her brother won't let her do household chores his reasoning being the time just interrupted her study time. But she had finished all the school work the day before and the extra reading was finished in the morning so she could manage helping him out even if he'd object.<br/><br/>The day ended smoothly as they ate dinner with their mother at the hospital and also showed her the gown and the swimwear they got her for their probable visit to the beach.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>April 20 | After School.<br/><br/>The day dragged on, the classes were over. Inoue had stuff to do at home and Sagat didn't seem interested in practice so they decided to let it go. They also needed to talk with the Judo club to lend some of their used mats. Alexei's takedowns were a bit hard and though he was careful while handling Inoue, the latter still felt the hit when she got grappled. Some extra cushioning won't hurt. Already there were a few bruises on her fair skin from the usual assault she was under whenever she sparred with these two. The guys at the dojo seemed to meek to go hard on her.<br/><br/>Maybe they feared her trainer or just thought that she wasn't strong enough to take their hits. But she could vouch for the fact that Sagat's half serious kick was still in a different league altogether.<br/><br/>Alexei picked up his bag and decided to go check Manga club, maybe Akane would still be there. She usually hangs out alone. As he walked up to the club, he opened the room to find only her inside, playing on her DS.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Oy! your roster shows much more people than they are always in here.""</font> he said in a joking tone. Dropping the bag on a nearby table.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24"">""By the way, what did you think about MMA club, would you join?""</font> he asked to her curiously.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24"">""And, do you need any help with betas or backgrounds?

Her friends wouldn't <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> understand if she told them, so she decided it was best that she didn't bring it up at all.<br/><br/>More importantly, today was a Drama Club day, and deciding on booking the auditorium's space for their next meeting, she entered the large hall-structure and set her notes on a spare table whilst people entered. <br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Good afternoon, everyone. Today is going to be a little different to our usual warm up sessions,""</font> Leiko began to speak in a clear, commanding tone as her clubmates started to trickle in. <font color=""yellow"">""As you all know, auditions for this year's school performance is on the horizon, and I'm sure some of you would like to try your hand at bigger, more challenging roles. Today is exactly about that.""</font><br/><br/>Leiko paused and noted the response to her announcement. Some looked more than a little surprised that she was bringing up auditions again so early, but no one was more surprised than Masatomo, who fixed her with a piercing look of disdain. She was going to have a headache about this afterwards, of that there was no doubt. <font color=""yellow"">""So, I would like everyone to spend this time to discuss amongst themselves on what they would <span class=""bb-i"">like</span> to do this year.

There had been some talk around the school - mostly pertaining to wild theories about whether the cases of Noboru and Matthew were somehow connected, who was behind them and how aliens were involved in all this. That, and some even wilder stories about a pair of students who had been up to shenanigans at the mall yesterday - an event which Kotori still decidedly ignored due to the sheer absurdity thereof.

Most days were slow days. Sato didn’t particularly enjoy school very much, at least lately. But his school day woes were second to the fact that it was a drama day, and the teen found himself already in the auditorium before he could realize. People were only just starting to enter, and it appeared he was one of the first to arrive. The familiar cast of students poured into the room gradually (minus one or two, though he couldn’t quite place exactly who was missing), and, after waiting a bit to see if anyone else was going to come, the club president spoke up.<br/><br/>Hamada detailed her plan for running the auditions soon while Sato leaned against the closest wall, one of his favorite things to lean against. As she spoke, he considered what he’d be interested in. Ignoring whether the role called for his skill level, the boy’s mind almost instantly set on the protagonist role, and he found himself briskly walking towards the sign-up sheets almost immediately after Hamada was done talking. A few others got there before him, and as he waited for others to get out of the way, he looked at the roles they wrote their names for. Someone else was going to try for the lead male, a few took supporting roles, and someone wrote their name for main antagonist. Alexai Dragunov, the towering guy before him wrote down. <br/><br/>After the man stepped away from the sheet, Sato closed in before someone else could and scrawled under the male lead, in small and elegant characters: Hashimoto, Sato. The slender boy turned away from the form on his heel and looked around for no reason. The brawny student was still there, apparently just waiting out for more instruction. Sato himself didn’t have anything to do beside wait as well, so he figured it’d be at least a time killer to attempt to strike a conversation with the guy.<br/><br/>After he positioned himself to the right of the man, Sato looked (up) at him and said the first thing that came to mind. <font color=""skyblue"">”Dragunov, right? I'm Sato Hashimoto. Nice to meet you.”</font> He slid one hand into his pocket while he bowed a bit. <font color=""skyblue"">”If we both get what we want, we’ll be protagonist and antagonist.

He had remembered his audition, it had been impressive to say the least, so to learn that his primary interest was in something else made Alexei a bit curious.<br/><br/>There were quite a few talented individuals in the mix but he found that the guy was no less talented than anybody else.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Alexei Dragunov.""</span></font> he said with a curt bow before replying to his query.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Frankly, I believe you are quite a talented one but I am interested to know what your true calling is?""</span></font> he asked curiously, waiting little for the reply before he finished his view on his chances.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""As for me, the villain always interests me so I just went with my gut.

An unpleasant and unfamiliar scent drifted around Dragunov’s proximity, and it took him a while to place the smell to tobacco. He looked like the type of guy that would smoke under-aged, now that he thought about it. Maybe that was a rude thing to think. But it was times like that Sato was glad mind-reading wasn’t a thing. Dragunov was obviously a foreigner though, so maybe it was an acceptable thing from where he was originally from…<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”My true calling? I guess it’d probably be… you know what? I don’t actually have a good answer to that.”</font> The teen closed his eyes for a few seconds as Dragunov continued talking. What exactly constituted a ‘true calling’? What you like doing the most, or what you’re the best at? If it was the latter, archery would probably be the most fitting answer. Sure, he liked doing it, but Sato was confident that archery wasn’t his favorite thing around. It wasn’t a ‘true calling’ if he were to go by the former. The phrase started to irk him though, and he vowed to only say it once more. <font color=""skyblue"">”I get what you’re saying though. So, what would be your ‘true calling’?”</font><br/><br/>It was then that probably one of the most popular (at least, from the ones that were in drama) girl from his year strode past them both after writing something down on the sheet, a hop in her step as she walked over to two other girls to complete the Unholy Triangle of Feminine Popularity. Sato didn’t care for her. She spoke down to everyone, judged everyone way too harshly, and did it all while getting some of the worst marks Sato had ever seen. He pitied her parents, even. But he couldn’t deny that her looks betrayed her ugly personality. After half glaring, half trying to figure out whether that was her natural hair color or not, Sato turned his attention back to Dragunov and quickly came up with something to talk about besides <span class=""bb-s"">‘true callings’</span> vocations.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”What’s your type, Dragunov?

Aesthetically, though, glasses are pretty much have a must-have. A bespectacled beauty is a step above a regular beauty.”</font><br/><br/>The boy shifted his weight to one hip and looked at Dragunov firmly. He was glad he was more of the gentle giant type, as having someone of his stature being all aggressive and rambunctious would be rather terrible. Having anyone being all aggressive and rambunctious is terrible anyway, Sato considered, but still. A swing from Dragunov would probably knock Sato out cold, or at least send him to the ground. Regardless, Sato had founded some kind of base for a potential friendship. He wasn’t sure how sturdy said base was but it was there and that was good at least. Their future as comrades was uncertain at best.<br/><br/>The conversation eventually died off until they were merely just in the presence of each other, and once Sato couldn’t bear the awkward silence any longer, the willowy teen wondered away from the lofty boy and found the closest person he knew, which turned out to be a girl from his class who had a shockingly similar personality to his own but had radically different interests. They found conversation in their quirks and thoughts that they somehow shared; often they shared the same sentiment towards keeping their interactions brief as to not run out of material to discuss.

For the past few weeks that she had been under the service for the cafe, customers who entered were usually hesitant, shy or excited but not as enthusiastic as the male student in front of her. It's nice to have such an enthusiastic customer though, she thought, it reminded her of herself when she first entered this haven of otaku, as one would put it, the place for escape from reality. As dramatic as it may sound, it was applicable for Shizuka since there was nowhere else but within the confines of her room and this cafe where she can be her otaku self, if not for a convention.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""It'll be my pleasure to, master! Please wait a moment while I prepare your beverage, excuse me.""</font> Another bow to excuse herself and with that, she darted off towards the counter to fetch him a cup of coffee. The new customer hadn't specified what kind of coffee he preferred so Shizuka simply went with the one commonly requested by other customers. Reaching for the sophisticated designed cup on the shelf, she stretched her arm and grabbed it along with the saucer, before filling it with the dark liquid from the natural coffee dispenser with a press of a button. Just as she picked up packed sugar and creamer, their manager approached the bloody maid to point out that she was already working over time. My how time passes quickly when one loved their job were her thoughts as the waitress let another crew handle the coffee and the customer before she left the cafe to head home.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Classroom 1-1 || April 21 TUE: After School</div><br/>Another day of learning has come to an end and while Shizuka was packing up her belongings into her school bag, one of her friends from her circle suddenly burst into a laughing fit while clutching her cellphone. Slightly alarmed by the sudden laughter, the raven haired student turned her gaze toward her friend and flashed a confused expression. What caused her to laugh <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> hard? Curious, she approached her friend and inquired, <font color=""violet"">""What do you have there, Fujiwara-san?""</font> As the fit of laughter continued, she flashed the images on her phone that she had been laughing at to Shizuka. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Oh.

Just who exactly distributed those photos? Shizuka was currently already in her Shizu-chan get up after a long while of preparation at the public bathroom as she headed towards the cafe. Speaking of the cafe, it was the only after school activity she currently signed herself up for but it certainly felt quite empty on the days where she had no shift. Perhaps she could sign up for a school club? She spotted a couple of posters down the hallway about a new Agricultural club earlier, maybe she could try and take a look the next day. Flowers are lovely, it would be nice to grow some at the campus. Anime/Manga club was something she would have definitely joined since the beginning of the school year but she still wasn't ready to reveal her true calling. All these thoughts clouded her mind as she slowly paced down the street of Warakuma mall.</div>"

It was to be expected though, since Leiko <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> only just spring this on them, so she would allow the group a little longer to reach their conclusions. There were a few surprises upon observation however; namely that Noboru Yamamoto had decided to <span class=""bb-i"">show up</span> for a drama session, let alone partake in the whole process. She could feel her eyebrows arch upwards as he walked over to the backstage form and scrawled his name on the dotted line. Strange for a boy of the Yamamoto name to go for a behind-the scenes role, but his well-built, muscular frame would prove useful for moving particularly heavy props...<br/><br/>Upon other observations, Dragunov had announced himself a candidate for antagonist, which hardly surprised Leiko due to the nature of his audition. Aesthetically, he really looked the part too, with his towering, intimidating figure, so she would certainly need to bear him in mind when casting...<br/><br/>She also noted Shinichi, Hashimoto, and that new member (Moritomi, was it?) gathering around the 'main character' form and signing their names boldly on the sheet. Leiko wasn't exactly sure if any of them had what it takes, particularly that Maki individual, since she hadn't even <span class=""bb-i"">seen</span> a real audition from the boy yet, but she was keen to find out all the same. Rui was a boy of many secrets, who might just yet surprise her, and Hashimoto had a certain charisma to him when acting, no doubt. But would they be good enough to take up such a huge mantle?<br/><br/>""Consider me signed up for the hero role, President-dono."" Ah, there was Masatomo again, approaching her with a cocky tilt of his head an a well-chosen glare. ""I'll wipe the floor with this riff-raff. And then you'll see what a colossal waste of time this all was."" Leiko opened her mouth to retort to his rudeness but she was quickly interrupted with a strangely disjointed remark. ""I have to go home a little early today actually, by the way. Take care of yourself alright, dear President?""<br/><br/>Leiko watched him with a confused expression as he turned and left for the door rather abruptly, before shaking herself quickly out of her reverie and whipping out her phone. She recalled that Kasumi would most likely be interested in knowing the details of today's session so she hastened to inform him that the forms for theatre roles were now available. Just as she was about to put away her phone however, she noticed the message icon suddenly light up.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-i"">Hama-chaaan! ^_^ Meet me by the gates when you're done with Drama ok! I have a present for you ;) </span><footer>From Saya Ueno</footer></blockquote><br/><br/>Saya? What did she want? Wasn't she supposed to be helping her parents shop for groceries today? It was a little weird, but then again, it was Saya she was talking about. The girl was just so excitable about everything. Allowing a wry smile to cross her lips, Leiko shoved the mobile phone back into her cardigan pocket before addressing the rest of the group. <br/><br/><font color=""yellow""> ""Okay everyone, thanks for your consideration. I'll announce the audition dates soon, but in the meantime, let's focus back on drama, shall we? Right then. Some of you have problems with controlling your voice.

Place your hands on your stomachs and we'll go through breathing with our diaphragms...""</font> <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>""Wow, thought you'd take forever, Hama-chan! Did you even listen to the last bell?""<br/><br/>Saya was loitering by the gates, a pout plastered across her face as Leiko finally emerged from the school. She probably worked her group a little <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> hard at the end, but hey, that was show biz. <font color=""yellow"">""Guess I got a little too carried away at the end. Besides, what's with this sudden meet up?""</font> Leiko inquired with a questioning look towards her impatient friend. <font color=""yellow""> ""Aren't you supposed to be shopping for your parents?""</font><br/><br/>""Sure did!"" Saya chirped, holding out the paper bag of fruit and vegetables and other miscellaneous things for Leiko to see. ""But I found something and I thought I just <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to get it for us, you know?""<br/><br/>Leiko looked a little surprised at the usage of the word 'us', but she bit her tongue as she waited for Saya to explain herself. It wasn't until a gaudishly pink strap was thrust under her nose that her mask of indifference melted away to a shocked look. <font color=""yellow"">""What's that?""</font><br/><br/>""A phone strap dummy! We both have one!"" Saya beamed, holding out her own neon yellow strap for Leiko to see. ""They were embroidering them at the mall, and I thought that I just had to get one for each of us! They're like, a symbol of our friendship!""<br/><br/>Of course Saya would think of something so inane. <span class=""bb-i"">Of course.</span> Leiko looked a little apprehensive as she took the strap for closer inspection. On one side inscribed the name 'Saya', and on the other side'Best friends'. It was so sickeningly cute and stupid it took all of Leiko's self-restraint not to ask for Saya to get it returned. <br/><br/>Whilst Leiko was inspecting her own, Saya had already gotten to work on attaching her strap to her phone. ""It says the same for mine, except mine says 'Leiko' of course."" Saya explained happily, allowing the strip of vibrant fabric to dangle from her phone proudly. ""I know it's kind of a boyfriend-girlfriend thing too so I made sure to put the 'Best friend' motif on both of them. Neat, huh?""<br/><br/>Leiko coughed uncomfortably in response, sliding the strap slyly into her cardigan pocket before shooting Saya an encouraging smile. <font color=""yellow"">""Yes, it is certainly...something. Thank you, Saya.""</font><br/><br/>Fortunately, Saya didn't seem to take note of her less-than enthused response and instead chose to chatter mindlessly about this and that as they made their way home in the darkening streets of Warakuma.  Boys, gossip, clothes, schoolwork, clubs, all manner of subjects passed their lips, but Leiko couldn't help but feel an unnatural chill in the air as they walked. Something...felt wrong, somehow.<br/><br/>""Hey, so what are your plans for Golden Week, Hama-chan? I heard that they're holding some kind of cooking contest in the mall! Do you think I should go for it?""<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Hmm? Oh...yes. Sounds nice...""</font> Leiko murmured distractedly, arms wrapped tightly around herself as her fingers dug into the soft, comforting fabric of her angora sweater. It was so...cold.<br/><br/>""I mean, not to blow my own trumpet or anything, but I'm pretty okay. I mean, what if they give out an awesome prize like money or clothes? That would be sweet!"" <br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""S-Sure...</font><br/><br/>""Yeah and...""<br/><br/>Leiko's hand suddenly reached for Saya's wrist and stopped her abruptly in her tracks, olive green eyes looking around them wildly. <font color=""yellow"">""I don't like this. Let's retrace our steps.""</font><br/><br/>""Huh?"" Saya's expression was that of utmost confusion as she gauged Leiko's uncharacteristic panic. ""What's wrong? We always walk this way back.""<br/><br/>As Saya tried to spot the root of Leiko's fears herself, a piercing wind started to pick up, shop signs screeching on its hinges and creating an unsettling sound, so much so that blood pumped wildly through Leiko's veins until she could feel the pulse on the roof of her mouth. <font color=""yellow"">""We need to go. <span class=""bb-i"">Now.</span>""</font><br/><br/>But it was too late. By the time the girls turned back, there was a solid line of figures, wrapped in robes, hoods disguising their visage as they stood as still as statues. Saya's startled gasp echoed in Leiko's ear as the girls froze in place, uncertain of what was happening. Leiko dared to glance behind her, and true enough, the same figures were blocking the other exit. Their only path of escape.<br/><br/>""U-Ummm..."" Saya's hoarse murmurs were lost on the crying winds, and it took all of Leiko's courage to speak out to the mysterious figures. <font color=""yellow"">""You're in our way. Please step aside.</font><br/><br/>Did that sound confident? Leiko really hoped so, although the telltale tremble in her voice probably indicated otherwise. The figures, meanwhile stood just as still before, as if her words hadn't reached them at all. Dear god, were they even <span class=""bb-i"">human</span> underneath those robes? It was an absurd question, but Leiko's panicked thoughts hardly held any semblance of logic at this point.<br/><br/>A flash of yellow suddenly caught Leiko's eye, and a feeling of hope and sheer joy passed through her as she noticed the phone slip into Saya's hand. She was calling the police! Yes! Everything was going to be okay!<br/><br/>And then...they moved.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""SAYA!""</font> Leiko's scream pierced the air, drowned only by the fury of the wind as limbs coiled around Leiko's body, ripping her away from her friend's side as Saya's phone slipped out of her hand lifelessly. Saya's eyes opened widely for a split moment, utter terror filling her eyes before she crumpled to a heap to the ground without a sound.<br/><br/>Was...was she...?!<br/><br/>Leiko's mouth opened again to cry for her, but a chemical scented cloth filled her mouth and nostrils, causing her to cough and splutter. She couldn't <span class=""bb-i"">breathe,</span> god, what was happening?<br/><br/>Why was it getting so dark?<br/><br/>Where...was she...?<br/><br/></div>"

The confirmation for Leiko's presence in the dungeon came almost immediately. How no one died in that time was beyond him, it appeared that the mirror world ran off of it's own time, so time and space was warped... Probably. He wasn't a quantum theorist. In any case, Saya reported the incident to the police, and ever since Wednesday there were police patrols seen all around near the school grounds, both for search and patrol. With Golden Week on the way, it was likely they would try and increase security... But the police station was small, they couldn't patrol everything.<br/><br/>In any case, it was their job to do their work in the dungeon. Rui, Matt, Noboru and Kami made a full team or so Kazuki said.<br/><br/>The Enchanted Woodland looked quite fetching, if it weren't for the shadows, a picnic here wouldn't be such a bad idea. As they trudged forward, Rui began to think... Are these dungeons a reflection of the mind? Noboru's was a reflection of his troubles, but Matt's was different, strange even. Like it was a fantasy... Was this dungeon like Matt's in that way? Well, they'll find out when they get to the end...<br/><br/>The dungeon's lush scenery actually visibly began to deteriorate as they got deeper, but soon they made their way into a forest... Well, the entire thing was a forest, but this one location in particular was unique. As they continued, they began to notice that the ground below was getting bouncier... Bouncier? This was solid grou- oh my god. That's the ground, fifty feet below them. What they were standing on was a large web network.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""Oooh this is a creepy feeling...

It won't be until later in the week that more adults would be here, since that was when their days off applied.<br/><br/>In any case, today seemed to be full of excitement at the amusement park.

Sato found himself not in said amusement park however, and in the shopping district, cold drink in hand and shopping bag dangling from his fingers. <br/><br/>As he navigated past the people slowly making their way down the street (with more precision and carefulness than ever, after that whole fiasco with the drink last time), Sato kept his eye out for a particular store. His mother had asked him to pick something up since he was going out anyway, but Sato had never been to the place before and was completely unaware of what it even looked like. All he knew was the name, and his brown eyes scanned every sign they could find in his field of vision. There seemed to be an incredible amount of shops that he’d never noticed before as he wandered down the shopping district, and sometimes Sato swore he’d seen the same store twice despite only having been walking in one direction.<br/><br/>And it was only after getting somehow lost did Sato chance upon an establishment was the same name as the one he was given. The boy didn’t even know what he was to be picking up from the store, and was instructed to merely inquire about it through his mother’s name. With about as much enthusiasm as a teen doing a chore could muster, Sato made his way to the store, or café, or whatever it was, and approached the somehow manager-y man standing by the entrance.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Hello Sir, I’m here on behalf of a Hashimoto Saki.

However, just as she began to wonder whether she should wait a little in the hopes that someone might yet come by or just leave for the day, she felt a hand upon her shoulder. Startled surprise caused her to instantly tense up; a sudden <font color=""green"">""Ee-!""</font> interrupted after just a moment when she took a sharp breath from the surprise. It only lasted for another moment when a voice behind her spoke up: <font color=""#aba000"">“yo how are ya? interested in joining?”</font> Whilst the relaxing process was quite a bit lengthier and her eyes were still wide from surprise, she turned half-way around; just enough to see the wide grin across Matthew's face whose hand was placed on her shoulder.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Haah...""</font> A slow, calming if slightly trembling breath was the first thing out of Kotori's mouth as she clutched both her hands close to her chest to calm herself - evidently not the best at handling such sudden surprises.

Nonetheless, she opened her school bag, taking only a moment to find the application therein and then handing it over - though she would first inquire as to when the Club met, exactly, and if it would be okay if she had to leave earlier sometimes.

Standing up straight again, she watched him walk off - and breathed a small sigh of relief once he was out of sight. Even if she'd done it many times, she still couldn't really get used to talking and tending to customers; preferring far more to instead tend to the flowers of the store. That was indeed what she usually did - unless her mother was out shopping, delivering or otherwise not around to take over. Today was one such day, Kotori's mother having gone to the gardening store and leaving the shop in her care. Stil standing behind the till, she began looking about the shop - keeping an eye out in case any of the displayed flowers showed signs of drooping or other problems; if mostly to avoid having to keep up an inviting smile should anyone walk past - which mostly came out rather stiff in her case.

She wasn't quite sure why, either - just a few minutes ago, her mother had returned, smiled and then pressed a ticket to the local amusement park into her hand and sent her off to get her jacket and whatnot with the words that it wasn't right for a girl her age to stay cooped up inside all day. And thus she now stood outside, turning back in slight confusion to see her mother smiling and waving after having wished her a good time and reminded her not to stay out too late. Deciding to not waste the unexpected gift, Kotori headed off toward Warakuma Amusement Park - a place she hadn't actually visited since it had opened up not all that long ago. Whilst she wasn't particularly fond of thrill rides and the like, she was certain there'd be enough other things there to have fun with - and just in case, she'd put a book into her handbag. With that in mind, Kotori set off.</div>"

He was in a foul mood, was what he was saying. Despite the glorious weather and an entire week free from his academic obligations, there were a number of issues wearing away at his mind. First and foremost of these was Hamada-san's untimely disappearance.<br/><br/>Mako shook his head in disgust. Not only did the police department appear to be completely inept at stopping these random kidnappings, but moreover, the latest victim was one of the only people who would have given him a way to distract from his frustrations regarding the incidents. As was obvious, Drama Club was shut down entirely while its president was gone to gods-know-where, leaving Mako's only recourse for extracurricular distractions as Boxing Club. Which did not help improve his mood. At all. If anything, it just made him angrier.<br/><br/>It was at the height of his frustrations, at the greatest risk of mask slippage, that he remembered the delightful cafe he had visited just less than a week ago. And so it was now that Mako found himself strolling confidently through the front door, eager for any sort of distraction from the perils of the everyday.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Good afternoon, everyone!

Before she could reply to the girl, she left quickly as she came, leaving Shizuka to her own puzzled thoughts. While she refused to take any of her own pictures, what caught her curiosity was the ""many more"" part. What exactly did the brunette have that she could offer to her? She may not find out any time soon as if she were to approach the stranger at school in her ordinary self, it might as well be revealing her own identity to a schoolmate. The blond maid quietly mumbled her thoughts as she continued her way to the cafe.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Cosplay Cafe || April 26 SUN</div><br/>Today officially marked the beginning of the Golden Week. Shizuka only had a loose plan for this week, a few plans with her circle of friends to hang out, an animated movie she waited for a long while to watch, and the rest of the week were either working shifts at the cafe or free time to herself. Today should have been a day off for the girl but most of the other crew members had made plans on this day, which caused her to be summoned to work today. She didn't mind much seeing as how she enjoyed the work most of the time, other times being troublesome for her, especially because of customers who were difficult to handle, complaints after complaints of unreasonable nature. Due to the short supply of waiters and waitresses today, Shizu has had a lot on her plate since this morning, figuratively speaking.<br/><br/>Their manager stood at the entrance of the cafe, seemingly waiting for someone's arrival as he shifted his head to left and right, occasionally greeting the customers who entered or left the cafe. A graceful male approached the man and on an impulse, he was about to greet the boy as a customer when he briefly explained that Ms. Hashimoto had sent him here in her stead. The taller man took a glance upon the male and flashed a smile, opened the door for the guest and welcomed, <span class=""bb-b"">""Please come in, I've prepared the envelope I intend for her to receive but I have a favor to ask of you before so. We'll have the chat inside, if you don't mind.""</span><br/><br/>Upon entry, the usual round of <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Welcome home, master!""</span></span> echoed throughout the cafe as the manager lead the young male to the staff area. <span class=""bb-b"">""It's rude of me to ask so suddenly of you but could you fill in as a waiter for this day? We're understaffed as you had seen earlier and we desperately need any help we can get.""</span> The manager's eyes had an obvious hint of plead in his eyes as he continued his speech. <span class=""bb-b"">""While Ms. Hashimoto may have sent you, young man, to receive the envelope, she also mentioned of a suggestion of having her son volunteer if ever I needed any assistance. I presume you are her son? I ask of that assistance now, with your consent.""</span><br/><br/>Shizuka hadn't mean to eavesdrop or any of that sort but she had heard most, if not all of what her manager had said, standing by at the counter awaiting for any customers needing her attention. Her eyes gazed half behind the rifle she held, at the slender figure of the male, imagining how elegant he would be in a butler's <span class=""bb-s"">or a maid's</span> uniform. But she was not to interfere unless her manager would call for her to help prepare the boy serve customers, of course after the black haired male was to approve of doing such thing. Her thoughts were interrupted as the entrance doors were opened, to which she instinctively joined with the others, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Welcome home, master!""</span></span><br/><br/>A familiar face had entered through the doors, it was the man who visited not too long ago before she left for home. Since she was free of any customer requests at the moment, Shizuka stepped forward and greeted him once more with a polite bow while letting him settle down on a seat. <font color=""violet"">""Glad to see you coming back again, master! I do hope you'll once again enjoy your time here and please take a seat comfortable to you.""</font> Once he was settled, the blond waitress handed over the menu which had exactly the same content as the previous one. After awhile, the theme was to be changed to a new one, along with the menu. <font color=""violet"">""Shall I fetch a cup of coffee for you while deciding on an order, master?""</font> She inquired in a friendly tone with a bright smile to boot.</div>"

Cosplay and all that. Still, if he was supposedly the ""master"" in this scenario, he should at least have the decency to learn the names of those that were serving him. How terribly improper that this had not occurred to him on his previous visit. He smiled somewhat sheepishly.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""...I apologize, but it has just occurred to me that I haven't asked what your name is.

Sato let out a deep breath as he followed the (assumed) manager into the store. Immediately after entering, Sato had two revelations: this was a café, and it was a <span class=""bb-i"">cosplay</span> café. What did his mother need from a place like a cosplay café anyway? And why were all the girls dressed in French maid outfits carrying fake guns? <br/><br/>When the manager passed by the main room of the café, the maids and butlers gave a resounding “Welcome home, master!” to them. The younger male shifted uncomfortably in the plaid shirt he wore. This was his first time in such a weird place. The manager led him into the staff-only area (another first for the boy) before stopping and addressing him regarding the favor he had mentioned. And Sato could hardly humor it after listening to the man’s plea. <span class=""bb-i"">Fill in as a waiter?</span> He literally just walked into the building for the first time ever and he already received an invitation to work there, albeit for a day. Aren’t waiters supposed to have some kind of training first? Some experience? The only job Sato ever had was cleaning dishes for a family friend’s restaurant and that was significantly different from waiting on and serving people.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”So wait a minute, you want me to be one of those maid waitressesers or whatever and serve food and stuff?”</font> Sato blurted out, obviously flustered over the proposal. Flabbergasted, even. <font color=""skyblue"">”I’ve never even been a waiter before. Will I get paid?”</font> Initially, Sato <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> been set on his answer being no, but after considering that he probably would get paid for doing it for a day, he reconsidered. A solution to his money problem was looking him straight in the face. And all he’d have to do would be to dress up and give people the food they order. How hard could that even be?<br/><br/>The teen tapped his chin with his fingers before continuing. <font color=""skyblue"">”Although. I guess… I guess I could do it. It’d be rude not to return the favor for my mother’s parcel. What would I have to do, exactly?”</font></div>"

It must have slipped her mind the last time they met due to her early leave but it was compulsory for waiters and waitresses in this cafe to introduce their nickname or cosplayer name to their <span class=""bb-i"">masters</span>. She fidgeted slightly with the rifle upon this realization before lowering her head in a short, apologetic bow. <font color=""violet"">""O-Oh goodness, pardon me for my late introduction, master. I'm referred to as 'Shizu-chan'. I do apologize for having given my name on our second meeting.""</font> The waitress bows once again and upon raising her head back up, her lips flashes a faint smile. <font color=""violet"">""But master, it would be my pleasure to serve you this time!

And of course, you will be given a proper amount of monetary compensation for your work today, don't worry. As for what you'll have to do,""</span> He stepped out of the staff only room to take a glimpse at the main area of the cafe for the crew who were present today, determining who had more time on their hands at the moment. Spotting Shizu heading behind the counter, the older man gestured for Hashimoto to stay and added, <span class=""bb-b"">""Hold on for a moment if you will, I'll introduce you to someone who can coach you throughout the day. Let me fetch her.""</span> Just as he stated such, he left the room for a moment to approach the aforementioned waitress who was reaching up for a cup and saucer pair on the shelf. With ease, the manager picked the ones she was reaching for and held them in his hands.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Making coffee, Shizu? I can take over from here since I'll need you to do something else. You saw the boy that entered the cafe with me earlier, yeah? Well I'll need you to get him ready to serve customers, appearance and mind set wise.

With a tinge of excitement upon her expression and voice, the blonde replies, <font color=""violet"">""Yes sir, I will try my best! But let us serve the coffee to our dear master, we hopefully won't take too long. I'll be sure to make him presentable!""</font> The taller male gives a nod of acknowledgment as he tilts his head towards the staff room, gesturing that the mentioned boy was currently in that room. With a bow to her manager, she paces towards the staff room quickly while he started on the coffee making process.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Greetings! My manager brought me here to get you ready with your costume and mind set of being a waiter. Please do not hesitate to ask me any question!""</font> Upon entering, Shizu greets the taller boy with a bow and a delighted smile upon her lips before searching through the usable costumes being hanged in a row, found at the side of the room opposite to the door. <span class=""bb-i"">Maid costume... maid costume.... maid costume..... Ah, a butl-- maid costume.</span> <font color=""violet"">""Ah, and my work name is 'Shizu-chan'.

It seems... we have no choice.""</font> While her expression was that of disappointment or something similar, her mind told her otherwise, in fact, she was glad for the scarcity of butler costumes today.<br/><br/>―――――――――――――――<br/><font color=""violet"">""May I present to you... our newest maid!""</font> Shizu stood in front of the expecting manager who had been awaiting for the two for awhile, his view on the male [?] being separated by the blond waitress standing in between them. When it was time for the reveal, she side stepped out of the way and there he was, in full black, French maid outfit, long, pink wig with straight cut bangs and wavy ends, a holster around his waist to carry two pistols and a face powdered with expert-leveled make up with cherry pink lips. The manager was amazed by the unexpected result and releases a casual whistle. <span class=""bb-b"">""Shizu, you've really outdone yourself but... why a maid? Well, no matter, it doesn't change the fact that he indeed looks presentable so I'll let it pass. Go on, I had the coffee for the customer done, try your hands at bringing it to him while Shizu will be there to assist you.""</span><br/><br/>As the two approached the brunette bespectacled male, the blond waitress spoke up with a polite bow, <font color=""violet"">""Apologies for the wait, master, here is your coffee brought by our new maid!

For being as elusive as it was, the staff room was pretty bland. Or perhaps, Sato considered, he had just went a little crazy with his imagination when it came to the mysterious staff-only section of stores and restaurants. It was almost crushing, really. And as Sato considered this disappointment, a chirping sound came from his pocket and he fished out his phone almost instantly. Three texts from Mika.<br/><br/><font color=""palegreen""><span class=""bb-i"">satoooo u heard about the big sales??

A blonde girl wearing the same kind of get-up as all the other waitresses entered the room and gave a bow. Sato returned it before she walked over to a rack of costumes and clothes on the other side of the room. The girl skimmed through the various frilly skirts before uttering the first word. <font color=""skyblue"">”Nice to meet you. I’m Sato Hashimoto, and I suppose we’ll be working together today.”</font> And it was after he introduced himself did Shizu-chan bring up the issue that there was no butler costumes left due to the overabundance of male waiters working. <font color=""skyblue"">”What’re we going to do then?”</font> Sato wrapped his arms around his chest. Even though he hoped otherwise, the slender male knew what they were going to do. <br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><font color=""violet"">”May I present to you… our newest maid!”</font><br/><br/>Sato did a tiny twirl in his long black dress. The newly christened maid stumbled awkwardly to one side after having done so, and he quickly repositioned himself and quietly folded his hands at his waist. <font color=""skyblue"">”Welcome home, master!”</font> Sato practiced, using the most realistic feminine voice the boy could muster. At least with the wig and the amount of make-up applied, the chances of being recognized by anyone were slim to none. An alien feeling of bashfulness ran through him when the manager gave a whistle, and he shook his head a bit to get rid of it. This was just like… like playing a character. Acting. This whole thing was just some practice for drama! Yeah, that was it!<br/><br/>The now pink-haired Sato took the cup of coffee and followed Shizu-chan over to their customer— master? —and as soon as he saw his face, the boy wanted to scream. Mako, that one guy from drama, was at the maid café. And they were serving him. Nervously, Sato placed the elegant cup of coffee before Mako as fluidly as he could. <font color=""skyblue"">”H-hello, master! I’m Saki, and I’ll be serving you today!”</font> The words came out too fast and too loud, and Sato at least knew he would appeal to the guys that were into the whole shy girl thing.

Perhaps this stuttering, shy persona was what Sato selected Saki to have (or was he actually nervous to serve people?) and Mako was simply observing this new maid's performance</span>, Shizuka thought to herself, oblivious to their relations as fellow club members. Once Mako had decided on what to order for himself, she responded brightly with a polite bow, <font color=""violet"">""A splendid choice! Bunker Buster Cake Special is currently one of our bestsellers and limited to the current theme. One order of Bunker Buster Cake Special, it is. Excuse us for a moment, Moritomi-sama, we shall return in a short while.""</font><br/><br/>With a short scribble on the order form, Shizuka left Mako's side and lead Saki back to the counter area and handed the order form to the kitchen staff on the other side of the pick-up counter. The manager who had been watching them from afar greeted them with a casual raise of the hand as they came back and inquired, <span class=""bb-b"">""How did Hashi-- pardon, I mean, Saki do?""</span> Gesturing her hand to the aforementioned maid, Shizuka replied, <font color=""violet"">""<span class=""bb-i"">She</span> seemed to capture a new persona to play naturally, which amazes me for a supposed beginner. Kenji-san would remember how awkward I used to be when I first became a waitress here, cosplaying is different from serving customers after all.""</font> Kenji, the manager, chuckled light heartedly to the comment and pat her shoulder as if to ease the embarrassment from her past. <span class=""bb-b"">""That's water under the bridge Shizu, no worries. But good, good. I'll entrust you to look after <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> while I return to my office to prepare Saki's pay for the day.""</span> With that, the older male turned on his heel and started towards his office until he stopped abruptly and turned back to the two. <span class=""bb-b"">""That's right, I've never introduced myself to you yet, have I?

She was goofy as she was spontaneous. After a few hours of whining and pouting she had managed to pull Alexei out of his housekeeping and clean-up job for the day and bring him to the market.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">""Ni-san! there's a new cafe that has opened up recently, I heard it from my friends.

Though he was a unabashed workaholic, it was okay to take some days off, especially if it were his mother's request or his sister's order. They played an important role in his life, it can be said that his life centered around them. So, though he may give of the impression of being overworked, emotionally he was rather barren and what little love and devotion he did have were all showered on the two flowers of his life. The girls understood that as well and covertly planned to keep him sane through regular change-ups in his busy schedule.<br/><br/>Today was one such day, Elena knew of the stash of mangas that lay tucked under his pillow and his cupboard. Apart from working tirelessly, this was the only activity she had seen him do. So when she first heard of the cafe and a brave classmate even managed to ask her for a date, she politely declined it in favor for her brother. She wanted to go there with him. It was her responsibilty in a roundabout way, after all he had done for her.<br/><br/>Underneath that calm and cheerful exterior, Elena hid her guilt and sorrow towards the life her brother leads, she just wanted to grow up quick and be married, to not be his burden anymore. Though, Alexei would scold her for even entertaining such a dark thought. The siblings were weird, or atleast appeared to be so in the eyes of others.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f26522"">""I am told that its a cosplay cafe and there are quite a few interesting setups and props, arranged on a weekly basis.

Alexei gave up on the game of resistance and calmly walked beside her, her hands wrapped around his burly arm. They may appear to be lovers had her face not been child-like.<br/><br/>On reaching the place, Alexei hesitated a bit but Elena powered through and entered. Upon entering, all around they could see a manga personified. <font color=""#f26522""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hello! there.""</span></font> She said cheerfully hoping to draw attention of the busy maids.</div>"

Well, saying 'dragged' may be a little much but it wasn't entirely incorrect. His original plans for the start of golden week was to sleep and hit up the arcade to kill time but his older sister, Aoi decided to make a surprise appearance. Just as he was in the midst of his wonderful slumber, he was woken up by the phone. At first he waited the phone out, remaining in bed and hoping that it would stop ringing so he could go back to sleep. After enduring for about 30 minutes of ringing every few minutes, he surrendered. While normal people may have given up after a couple of minutes, his sister was anything but normal. <br/><br/>She called to let him know that shes back in Warakuma for a bit and that she wanted to see him and hit up the Amusement park, like they did when the place first opened. Of course, he turned her down, insisting that he had plans and wouldn't be able to make it. It's not they he had something against her, in fact, they got along quite well and she was quite fun to hang around with, but he was tired and wanted to enjoy golden week and sleep in. Of course being his older sister, she knew Akira all too well, she knew he wouldn't have any plans. While she called him, giving him the impression she was a good distance away...she was in fact close by. Just as he hung up the phone and made for his way back to bed, the door knocked. <span class=""bb-i"">Damnit.</span> With a groan, he made for the door and opened it to find his sister grinning with her cell in hand.<br/><br/>And well, here we are. Well, aside from the fact his sister took off soon after waking him up, saying she had to do something before they went and to meet back up at the amusement park in a few hours. <span class=""bb-i"">Honestly, That Aoi.... Every time.</span> He sighed in resignation. Aoi always had a habit of doing things like this, getting him to agree to go with her to places only to postpone and do it later. Can't be helped, as he walked along, stopping once he caught sight of someone he had seen around, a big guy and he was with a younger girl. <span class=""bb-i"">He's a third year, Alexai, I believe. Must be his little sister.</span> And they were in-front of that new cosplay cafe. Given the time, Aoi is either already at the park or heading over there and as such, it probably wouldn't kill her to wait a little longer. With that, he followed them in.<br/><br/>Greeted by the harmonious welcome he took his seat and was about to order when something caught his eye. More like someone, he couldn't see their face, their back being turned, but something was off. It was the voice of that <span class=""bb-i"">maid</span>. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe they had a cold? Hmm... </span>He became even more suspicious when he managed to get a side glimpse of her face. He definitely seen 'her' before, that's for sure. Well, that's the feeling that hit him as he thought about it more. <br/><br/>He had a hunch but wasn't sure, since he found it hard to believe considering their personality, but he was curious. As she delivered food to a customer, being near his seat, he couldn't resist. Calling from behind, <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Saki-chan was it? You look awfully familiar, now, where have we met before?""</span></font> he grinned.</div>"

As Shizu lead him back over to the counter area (thankfully), Sato could merely pray that Mako didn’t figure out who he was. But he probably did, based on the way he was suspiciously eyeing him. He definitely knew and all he could do is hope that Mako would just never mention it. To anyone. Ever.<br/><br/>He rubbed his arm awkwardly as Shizu and the manager discussed his very first performance. Shizu apparently took his interaction with Mako as playing a character, which Sato supposed was better than just being a nervous beginner. The dragged-up boy barely paid attention to what they were doing or saying until he heard a familiar name. <span class=""bb-i"">Hoshikawa Kenji.</span> Sato’s neck snapped to look at the manager and was shocked to realize that it was in fact Kenji Hoshikawa’s face. While he didn’t anymore, he used to watch sentai stuff all the time as a kid and the only actor he really knew from any of them was Kenji. Sato bit his lip to prevent himself from smiling like a child. <font color=""skyblue"">”Wow,”</font> he muttered.<br/><br/>After Kenji left, Sato turned <span class=""bb-s"">her</span> his attention to the cake that was placed on the counter beside them. It looked… like he expected. It fit the already zany theme. Shizu instructed him to deliver the slice of decadent cake over to Mako as she greeted some new customers. He nodded firmly and whisked the cake from the counter and over to Mako’s table. As he walked over to his master, Sato stole a glance at the customers that had just entered. And to his surprise, it was Alexai Dragunov, the fellow he had met in Drama, standing beside a younger-looking girl who Sato guessed was related to Alexai in some fashion based on the similarities between their appearances. Sato whole-heartedly expected yet another person from Drama to find their way to this maid café he didn’t even know existed before a couple hours ago.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Here’s your order, master. Please enjoy.”</font> ‘Saki’ set the plate in front of Mako. Under his breath, he quickly muttered something. <font color=""skyblue"">”<sub><span class=""bb-i"">Andpleasedon’tsayanythingaboutthis.</span></sub>”</font> The maid took a short step back, glaring at Mako without trying to hide it. What he wouldn’t leave for him to just leave. At least Alexai was being served by someone else, but this guy would just be a problem until he was gone, and it would only get worse as someone called to him. <br/><br/><font color=""#007236"">”Saki-chan was it?”</font> Sato turned to face who owned the all too familiar voice.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Kill me</span>.<br/><br/>Sato stared at Akira. Why the hell was <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> here? <font color=""#007236"">”You look awfully familiar, now, where have we met before?</font> And even Akira recognized him. Or at least had an idea. Mako was enough trouble, so Sato conjured up a voice as feminine as he could muster, shied his face towards the floor, and decided to fully commit to this waitress thing.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Hello, master! I am Saki, yes. I’m afraid we haven’t met before unfortunately, however. Would like to order anything? A coffee, perhaps? My other master can testify for the quality of it.”</font> Sato replied, a cheerful tone tacked onto his voice. He nodded his head in the direction of Mako when he mentioned his ‘other master’. Ordering coffee meant that Sato had an excuse to flee from the scene and avoid any more immediate contact with the two boys.<br/></div>"

The inn itself was beautiful, very rustic and traditional. The inn was only a short drive away from Warakuma and was in a very scenic hillside, on occasion a taxi would drive past, so if the girls felt like venturing into town, they could use a taxi as transport. The girls exited the car, waving goodbye to the car. Chiaki really loved the scenery the lack of noise and strange aura of the inn was a lovely change.<br/><br/>The girls walked in the entrence and were warmly greeted by a geisha, they exchanged a warm welcome to the girls and escorted them to the mangmemt counter. The inn had been expecting them, the girls showed them their passes and they were given some elegant keys. They wood carvings that had intricate designs carved on to them, along with their room numbers. As the girls were taken to their room, Chiaki ran her finger over the divits of the design.<br/><br/>Once inside the room, Chiaki and Ayano began to unload their luggage. Within the room was a complementary bathing robe for hot springs. Chiaki was excited to spend time with her cousin. It had been so long since they had been together.

But thankfully, her face was always covered by her lengthy, dark bangs when she was out of cosplay so she can rest easy on giving her identity away, appearance wise. Before approaching the two, the blond maid cleared her throat in hopes of raising her voice pitch when she spoke lively, <font color=""violet"">""Good day to you, master and mistress!

The building nestled by a hillside that looked just as beautiful as the inn, there was very little noise, it made Ayano happy.<br/><br/>As they ventured inside the inn, Ayano was taken over by an overwhelming sense of relaxation and tranquility. It would seem that the games she played weren't exaggerating over the features of what an inn feels like. The interior of the building definitely looked ornate and traditional, it was like she had gone back in time, and even then the inn would've probably fit in that time period, thought the girl. <br/><br/>As they entered the room, the girl sat down and began to take her belongings out of her bag.

As she stood up to grab it, Ayano could see her cousin staring off the in the distance, her face nothing but a blank face.

Tock.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Tick...</span><br/><br/>The monotonous sound of the clock hand clicking past each number filled the barren silence that consumed the young teenage girl as she sat in front of her desk, eyes gazing vacantly out of her window. An ugly purple bruise had blossomed on her right cheek, and red bags appeared under her eyes from excessive rubbing and lack of rest. <br/><br/>It had been five days since Leiko had gone missing. <br/><br/>Saya did what she could. She really did. She was found unconscious in a back alley by a neighbour and taken straight to hospital where she had stayed for three days. The police had interviewed her, and she tried to recount the incident as best she could. She'd estimated at least ten people had surrounded them that night, and they were all wearing strange robes. She couldn't see their faces, couldn't hear their voices or understand their intentions. They attacked her, left her for dead and taken Leiko somewhere. That was all she knew. <br/><br/>She could tell the police were disappointed with the amount of information she had to give, but their dissatisfaction was nothing compared to how she felt. She kept reliving the moment over and over in her head, kept seeing the look of horror and fear in Leiko's eyes before everything went dark...<br/><br/>""Dammit!"" Why couldn't she remember? Why did she have to be such a useless, worthless piece of-<br/><br/>""Saya? Honey?"" Her mother's concerned voice sounded from behind her close door, trepidation clearly evident in her tone. Everyone had been treating Saya like she was some kind of broken vase since she was discharged from the hospital. One touch and she would shatter. Maybe they were right. <br/><br/>""I'm fine. Sorry."" Saya's response in turn was hollowed and lifeless, so different to the usual boundless energy she carried about her. She felt utterly helpless. Her best friend, the one who had dragged her from that dark part of her life...was gone. <br/><br/>And more than anything...she had felt <span class=""bb-i"">relieved.</span><br/><br/>Relieved that at least it wasn't her. <br/><br/>Her stomach started to churn again, reminding her that she needed to eat, but she ignored the sharp pains in her abdomen and glanced over her modest amount of 'Get Well Soon' cards with a look of guilt. Quite a few of her friends had visited her in the hospital, but she couldn't look any of them in the eye. After all...it was her fault that Leiko was gone. <br/><br/>She heard her mother sigh softly from the crack of her door before leaving, which prompted Saya to slink back to her bed in a half-hearted attempt to fall asleep. It wasn't like she was in the mood to go out and do anything for Golden Week anyway. What was the point, knowing that Hama-chan was still missing? <br/><br/>""Please...please be okay..."" Her prayers were hoarse and laced with doubt, but the will in her heart was as hard as granite. Leiko was the strongest person she knew. She <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to come back. She needed her. They all did. <br/><br/>As Saya's head flopped back against the pillow, a streak of yellow caught her eye. Blinking a bit, the girl reached over and fished her phone from the crevice in between the bed and the wall, before looking down at the strap dangling from the device. The name 'Leiko' had been embroidered into the fabric, along with the phrase 'Best Friends' adorned on the other side.<br/><br/>It was the last thing Saya had given her. And it was so <span class=""bb-i"">childish.</span> How could she even dare to call herself her best friend, when she failed to save her? What good was she, holed up in her den, watching the days pass as her friend's life hung so delicately in the balance?<br/><br/>Saya was never one to give up without a fight. Leiko had always made fun of that aspect of Saya's personality, calling her foolish or naive. <br/><br/>And she wasn't going to give up now. Not on her. <br/><br/>""Hang in there Hama-chan..."", she whispered, thumbing the phone strap fondly before reaching for her coat and looking once more towards the window. <br/><br/>This time, she was going to be there for Leiko, no matter what. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada: <a href=""https://youtu.be/KlenrtAhJ68"" rel=""nofollow"">????</a> </span> <br/><br/>It smelled...nice. That was the first sensation Leiko was aware of as her eyes started to flutter open, the smell of earth and pollen drifting through her nose. Her vision was still hazy from her slumber, but as her head started to lift up from the flowerbed, she became more acutely aware of the sprouting bulbs and sprawling roots at her feet. She was in...a forest? But it was too... <span class=""bb-i"">breathtaking</span> to be the same woods near Warakuma. Too full of life and colour and vastless beauty...<br/><br/>Leiko shook her head to dispel the cobwebs in her own mind and reminded herself of her situation. She had been attacked by those strange hooded figures, she had seen them strike Saya down and then- <br/><br/><font color=""yellow""> ""Saya!""</font> Leiko cried out as she suddenly remembered her friend suffer a painful blow from one of those figures, the memory prompting her to look around wildly for any sign of her closest friend, but all she was greeted with was an endlessly dense thicket of trees from all directions. <br/><br/>Wherever she was, it seemed that Leiko was a long way from Warakuma. <br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Hello?""</font> Leiko called out to the unsettling silence of the woods, her voice echoing aloft amongst the trees. No response. Perfect. So she had been dumped in some strange woodlands, with no sight of her friends or any other kind of life. Well, maybe there was a small blessing in that fact. At least the perpetrators weren't in sight, and she appeared to be in one piece.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""I need to get out of here...</font>"", Leiko whispered to herself, unease creeping in at her predicament as she took a step out of the flowerbed that had cradled her. She didn't know why, but there was something unsettling about this place, beneath the tranquility and delicate beauty. Was it because she was alone? Scared? <br/><br/>No, of <span class=""bb-i"">course</span> not. She'd find her way back, and then she would report straight to the police. She would find Saya, and then she would make sure those guys <span class=""bb-i"">paid...</span><br/><br/>First things first. Would she get reception here? Her hand slid down to her breast pocket to find her phone, but a quiet, strong voice stopped her immediately in her tracks. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Swift as a shadow, short as any dream...""</span><br/><br/>Leiko recognised the words instantly. How could she not, when she picked the very same Shakespearean verse for auditions that year? But what really caught her attention was the voice who spoke them. The delivery of the words were strange, almost...detached and lonesome, like a lament. And that voice...was <span class=""bb-i"">hers.</span><br/><br/>Leiko could feel her eyes widen at the recognition, her body trembling from the shock of hearing her own inflections as the voice continued to perform. Who was that? Was someone pulling a trick on her? <br/><br/>There was only one way to find out. Sensible plans of escape long forgotten, Leiko gave chase into the thicket, leaves and branches snapping under her heels as she listened fervently for the voice that mirrored her own. She could feel the brambles snag at her sweater and cobwebs tangle in her hair, but she didn't stop. And the voice grew ever clearer until-<br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-b"">So quick bright things come to confusion...""</span><br/><br/>The smell of rot reached Leiko's nose as she stepped into a clearing, decay   and barren waste laying at her feet. This place was different to the rest of the woods, so disjointed and repulsive. Leiko wanted more than anything to turn heel and return to the flowing rivers and flowers and bountiful nature. Not...this.<br/><br/>What changed her mind however, was the sight of a regal figure, sitting crosslegged on a throne of gnarled branches and twigs. Her hair was long , cascading in caramel rivelets down past her shoulders, and a wreath of flowers crowned her head. Her fingers were long and elegant, every curve a mark of feminine perfection. Only her pointed, elven ears and golden eyes betrayed that the woman before her was far from human.<br/><br/>What truly caused Leiko to balk was the most noticeable feature of all. <br/><br/>""<span class=""bb-b"">Hello, Leiko. Or rather, me?""</span> The woman laughed unsettlingly, Leiko's face frozen into a look of utter disbelief and horror. <span class=""bb-b"">"" How foolish to greet oneself so openly. Did you enjoy my soliloquy?""</span><br/><br/>Leiko's scream was loud enough to rumble through the earth, drowned only by the crackling laughter of the creature before her.</div>"

Jun whined, seeing as how she was stuck on the hour long journey up the mountain, she might as well gripe about it to the only person who couldn't get away from her. Apparently the yakuza owned the inn and met there on occasion, so nobody would dare do anything to her on the way.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Kitsune Inn // Afternoon</div><br/><br/>The manager personally saw Jun to her room, which for some reason had a katana and full set of dogu in it.

She felt sorry for her opponent.<br/><br/>""Your father wants me to tell you he will be arriving in the evening with his guests, and to be ready by then."" The manager informed Jun before leaving with a bow.

She would normally have kept the comment to herself, but she was irritated.<br/><br/>Jun dropped her bags off and changed into a yukata, bringing the supplied bath towels with her and heading to the springs. ""Hey, could you bring me something cool to drink?"" She requested of one of the staff passing her in the corridor before stepping in to the changing area.<br/><br/>She wasn't expecting anyone to walk in, so Jun stripped down and entered the shower area to wash herself before stepping into the hot water, her back bare to the entrance and her dragon tattoo visible to anyone who came in.<br/></div>"

It would set a bad precedence for his return visits if he did that, after all. He watched Sato walk away to grab the jerk's order, his sympathies extending to the put-upon ""maid."" He took a deep, hopefully calming breath, then a sip of coffee, then cleared his throat in the other patron's direction. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Excuse me,""</font> he said, the rage he felt somehow not edging into his voice, <font color=""#0076a3"">""but there are <span class=""bb-i"">clearly</span> signs that <span class=""bb-i"">clearly</span> say, 'No Photography.' You should probably take those pictures off of your phone if you don't want to get in trouble with the establishment. Just a thought.""</font><br/><br/>He glanced back as Sato returned with the other patron's order... then had to try <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> hard not to burst out laughing as Sato stomped subtly (but still very hard) on the patron's foot. As it was, his suppressed laugh was still pretty noticeable if anyone had been bothering to watch him. Still, as enjoyable as that was to watch, it was unlikely to dissuade the patron from doing whatever it was he intended to do with those photos. Mako frowned again as his short-lived enjoyment at Sato fighting back faded away, to be replaced by the slow-simmering anger.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">I can't let him keep those photos.

The waitress steadily kept her calm composure by taking in breaths and flashing a gentle, welcoming smile towards the younger one as if nothing was wrong. Yep, nothing was definitely going wrong, or so she thought, at least to her knowledge. The subtle conflict which was going on over at the other table was subtle enough that the blond maid did not notice a thing for now.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#8882be""><span class=""bb-b"">""I feel that I have seen you somewhere.""</span></font></span> The calm composure the maid had kept up to this point cracked slightly as she replied with an accidental stutter. <font color=""violet"">""S-Shopping district the other day? *Coughs* I'm afraid I can't recall such memory as of the moment, I do apologize. But I was involved in an incident there another day, an embarrassing one in fact, perhaps you've seen me then?""</font> The latter statement was indeed true, but Shizu definitely remembered her encounter with the siblings exactly a week ago. Such kindness and the unique characteristics they held stood out in her memory since this doesn't happen everyday, a pair of foreign siblings, who speak fluent Japanese, generously and skillfully assisting her in a middle of a busy crowd.<br/><br/>Just as the blonde had defended herself, Alexei cut in to have a little scolding for the younger sibling while justifying that she was not the same girl that she was talking about. Shizu felt a little guilty about hiding the truth from them to the lengths of a white lie but it had to be done. In response, an awkward smile was plastered on her face as she just nodded in agreement while scribbling in their orders. At this point, the cosplayer was pretty sure Elena had an idea that she was indeed, Shizuka, but her comment about how her appearance was 'better this way' made her face light up into a genuine, bright expression. <font color=""violet"">""I'm unsure as to what you're speaking of, mistress, but I greatly appreciate your compliment!

Seeing as it was a violation of one of their rules of the cafe, she approached the customer with the toy rifle in her arms and pointed it towards the male student. <font color=""violet"">""Excuse me, master! If what Moritomi-sama had just said is true, then I must inform you that we indeed do not allow photography of our waiters and waitresses <span class=""bb-i"">unless</span> proper permission has been granted from the said server! Even then, as common cosplay cafe standards apply here as well, each photo will come with a fee. If all of the above do not apply, I humbly ask you to rid of them, master!""</font> Even after the short lecture, the maid lifted one of her hands from the rifle and saluted the master in a playful manner with a silly smile in hopes of cooperation from the customer.<br/><br/>Just after the fuss that had transpired, the bell rang to alert employees of food being at the counter, so instinctively, the blonde turned her gaze momentarily to see the chocolate brownie cake covered by a toxic green hued frosting topped with a petite, grey nuclear bomb fondant decoration. At the cakes' side were a pair of glasses filled with orange-y pink liquid signifying some sort of berry flavoring. <span class=""bb-i"">They were the Dragunov siblings' orders!</span> Seeing that Saki was making <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> way back to their current master, the waitress strapped the rifle back on her back and bowed to the two customers with an 'Excuse me.' and patted the other <span class=""bb-i"">waitress</span> on the shoulder as a good luck with an upward curve on lips. After fetching the orders from the counter and returning to the siblings' side, Shizu carefully settled their orders in front of them as gracefully as she could manage. <font color=""violet"">""Here are your orders of Nuclear Wasteland and fruit beer, master and mistress!

Somehow Sato doubted that deleting the pictures taken was going to be the end of the woes that have and will result from the shift. Deletion was far from erasure. At the very least, however, Sato had grounds to get Akira banned from the establishment, but it struck Sato that Akira wouldn’t likely care at all to not be able to return to such a place.<br/><br/>(Possibly Un)Luckily, Akira paid for his drink and left the café after he deleted the photos, and Sato leaned against one of the booths’ ends to take a deep breath. The shift hadn’t even progressed much and Sato was already defeated. He had served literally two people and that ended in some form of disaster, leaving Sato feeling unmotivated to continue. Two other guys from Drama were already there (much to Sato’s dismay, Sieghardt also entered the café). It’s not like Kenji wouldn’t not pay him if he gave up, considering he still helped out…<br/><br/>With a sharp exhale, Sato pushed himself away from the wall and made his way back into the staff room, where he found Kenji doing whatever managers do on busy days.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>Taking in a breath of fresh air, Sato stepped out of the maid café. He had done the best he could slipping out of cafe and around the block without getting seen by anyone he knew. With all the make-up gunk off his face, and with a few extra thousand yen in his pocket, he couldn’t help but feel good. The feeling would fade when he went to school after Golden Week, but at least the relief was there at all. The day was still rather young, however, and the boy found himself without much else to do besides return home with the package and money given to him by the manager. <br/><br/>Though, it wouldn’t be fun to chill at home during <span class=""bb-i"">Golden Week</span>, so the teen whipped out his cellphone and scrolled through his contacts. Whispering <span class=""bb-i"">busy, on vacation, busy, nah, busy…</span> and such as he went down the list, Sato soon found himself stopped at a Ishihara R. Thinking back to the last time they talked to each other personally, it wasn’t exactly very friendly, but the club president seemed to have cooled off in the past week, and Sato didn’t quite think he would get anywhere in the Archery Club while he was still on shitty terms with Rokurou…<br/><br/>Before he could change his mind, Sato texted Rokurou quickly, scoffing at that one unread message he got from Noboru afterwards. The teen shoved his phone back into his pocket as he started off down the street and towards the train station, where he was to meet Rokurou within the hour, if he were to accept Sato’s invitation. Though, despite the relative crowd of people, as the boy made his way downtown, he couldn’t shake the feeling of being tailed by someone. Sato shook the feeling off and continued on his way, hoping it was just a weird spark of anxiety.</div>"

The boy sat lazily in a park bench, his track jacket thrown off next to him leaving him in his plain grey t-shirt. <br/><br/>His breathing was a little labored, as he had just finished helping an older man -- who owned a bookstore &amp; cafe -- move his wares to a smaller building. Toma's wrist wasn't anywhere close to healed, but he had kept that to himself and taken the job anyway. It had hurt more than he expected, and the dull, hot pain was still present. Whatever -- the job was done.<br/><br/>Toma had asked why the man was changing buildings. 'Downsizing,' he had answered.. Business had slowed down over the last little while, and the larger store was too much. Upon learning that the older man was the only one who ran the store, Toma had asked if he was looking to hire.<br/><br/>Of course the man said no. That would have been too easy. He 'had it under control.' Recalling that, Toma sighed again and turned his head away from the bright sun as the brief cover of clouds passed, wiping a bead of sweat off his brow with his good hand. He was convinced now -- no steady job he was qualified for existed in this town. All the boy had managed to find were a few one-time deals. It was better than nothing, but the frustration was getting to him.<br/><br/>Speaking of frustration -- those goddamned disappearances. Another one had happened, and the victim this time was Hamada. That was troubling enough, considering she was still missing, but to add to that, Hamada's friend -- Ueno Saya -- who had been with her at the time of her disappearance had been assaulted.<br/><br/>That confirmed to Toma that the disappearances were in fact kidnappings -- not that there was much doubt about that to begin with, though. It also confirmed that the kidnappers were willing to get violent. Toma grimaced in anger. What the fuck were their motives? Why were they only going after students of Warakuma High?<br/><br/>The boy bit the side of his lip hard, drawing blood. It didn't matter <span class=""bb-i"">why</span>. Whoever these people were, they were evil. And they needed to have their existences erased.<br/><br/>But despite his efforts, Toma still had zero clues. The only thing he hadn't tried was talking to Ueno and Noboru; he hadn't seen either of them in at least a week. He was also worried that it might be a bit of a touchy subject, but he didn't really care at his point. He just wanted answers.<br/><br/>He looked down at his nearly useless right hand, cursing it with a frown. Unbearable frustration. <br/><br/>Track was the only thing that helped him let off some steam lately, and he took full advantage of it every time the club met by running himself ragged. Speaking of which, he checked the time on his phone. It was almost 12. Arata, the head of the Track club, had invited them all to get together at the amusement park today. To ""bond,"" as he put it.<br/><br/>At first, Toma had said no -- he didn't particularly feel like it, and he thought his time would be better spent looking into the kidnappings or finding a job. Arata had pushed, though, and had managed to get a very reluctant 'yes' out of him. He mulled it over in his seat, still deciding whether he should go. <br/><br/>With a click of his tongue, he stood up and pushed his hair off his forehead. He had agreed to go (no matter how forced he had been), so he couldn't not show up. Toma looked on the bright side; it was his first time going to the amusement park, and he knew he could use a break, despite not wanting one.<br/><br/>It was a way to spend the day and keep himself occupied. And there was a good chance that it'd be fun.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Amusement Park</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">This was not fun.</span><br/><br/>The small group was being lead by Arata, and the guy was way too energetic for Toma. They moved around the park at far too quick a pace, and Toma was just getting dragged along.<br/><br/>What was the point of this? They were basically skipping everything. They should have been leisurely strolling through, taking their time to actually enjoy everything that was being offered, and making the experience last. Toma didn't voice his complaints, though, as everyone else seemed to be having a good time.<br/><br/>The only source of amusement for the boy was watching Arata dote on Tsuruko. The crush he had on her was obvious to everyone, even to her, but as far as Toma knew, they weren't dating. After observing them, his best guess as to why that was was that Tsuruko simply wasn't interested, and she tried to subtly communicate that. It all went over Arata's head, though. The guy had spent a huge amount of money playing a carnival game to try and win a stuffed toy that the girl had off-handedly said was cute. After his dozenth-or-so try, he had actually succeeded, too. Her joyful reaction, Toma noticed, was a little forced.<br/><br/>Eventually, they reached what many considered to be the park's main attraction -- the roller-coaster. Toma paled ever so slightly as the group began to talk excitedly, heading to the end of the line. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""I-I, uh, I'm not really up for this ride,""</font> he said to the group, quickly getting his cracked voice under control. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm hungry, so I'll just go eat something while you guys are on it.""</font><br/><br/>Arata began to protest, of course, but Toma was having none of it. <font color=""#f26522"">""You don't understand, Kimura-kun. I'm <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> starving.""</font> The energetic boy eventually gave up with an over-exaggerated huff of disappointment.<br/><br/>Sighing in relief, enjoying the relative silence now that he was no longer with the group, he went to a stand and bought an ice-cream sandwich before going back near the entrance of the ride and leaning against a railing. <br/><br/>As he enjoyed his cold snack, he looked up at the coaster, a fairly out-of-the-blue, morbid thought crossing his mind. He imagined a strap failing during the ride, his buckle opening up and letting him plummet to his death. He gave a bit of a nervous snort as he entertained the idea. That'd be huge news in this town, and would be terrible for the amusement park's business. And of course, if that were to happen to him, both his parents would be devastated. He frowned imagining his parent's reactions, and pushed the idea out of his head. <br/><br/>He rubbed his tired eyes with the back of his good wrist before going back to eating, considering the option of ditching the group to go off on his own. Spending his time alone in an amusement park probably wasn't the coolest thing a teenager could do, but he wasn't fond of rejoining the members of the track club, either. And they likely wouldn't miss him too much.</div>"

Dozens of numbered dots were scattered all throughout, a legend describing each of them with some of the bigger attractions being highlighted and given some more prominent artwork on the stylised map. Having only arrived a few minutes ago, she had yet to actually decide where she wanted to go exactly. There was the large roller coaster, seemingly the main attraction, a haunted house, a mirror gallery, a ferris wheel and an assortment of smaller themed rides about the park, all interspersed with various food stalls and restaurants; perhaps not unlike one she'd passed in the shopping district on the way here but had decided was likely not a place she'd fit in very well.<br/><br/>Instead, she mentally crossed off the places she really wasn't all that interested in - the roller coaster looked rather wild for her taste and the haunted house was quite quickly off the list as well. Placing a finger to her lips, she mulled over the remaining attractions - what did she want to do first?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Shopping District | Afternoon</span><br/><br/>With a small smile still remaining, Kotori stepped out of the ferris wheel cabin, giving a small grateful bow to the ride attendant who was making sure that the guests got on and off without a problem. The view from above had been quite the sight indeed - both of the amusement park itself and of Warakuma all around. Looking about, she quickly located one of the many boards showing the park layout - after the second time she'd had to look for one, Kotori started to wish she'd not have reflexively turned down the small flyer at the entrance. Still, it wasn't exactly difficult to get around, so she wasn't too bothered by it.<br/><br/>Throughout her stay, she'd already seen some familiar faces, even if she wasn't on the lookout for them - though she'd usually have to take a second look when such a case arose, as her schoolmates, much like herself, were wearing their own clothes rather than the more familiar school uniform. That thought in turn brought to mind the recent kidnappings of which yet another had occured, but Kotori quickly shook her head to rid herself of the thought. Not that she was very successful with that, given that she had actually met and talked to the girl, Leiko, just some days before. Still, she at least managed to push the thoughts back to a mere worry at the back of her head as she instead tried to enjoy the day. Looking back at the map, she quickly found the 'You are here' point before gazing over the nearby dots and what they meant in order to decide on her next stop.<br/><br/>A few minutes and a bottle of oolong tea from a nearby vending machine later, Kotori had decided to take a brief break before continuing on. A good hour of intermixed walking and enjoying the rides was quite tiring after a while as she glanced about to find an unoccupied bench or table about. Thankfully, she didn't have to look very long as a small group of what looked to be middle-school aged girls vacated a nearby bench, giggling amongst themselves as they went their way. Seeing as no one was headed for it, Kotori sat herself down with a small measure of relief at catching a break; taking a moment to look about the park. Should could see the roller coaster wooshing along its tracks at worrying speeds, pulling rapid turns as it did, before her. Turning her head she could have seen the ferris wheel that she'd just come from.<br/><br/>What she didn't see, however, was a group of three boys her age who were - rather unsuccessfully - trying to chat up any girls they came past. A click of their tongues and a few muttered words under their breath followed the departure of yet another girl - though they could perhaps have chosen a better person than a classmate of their from Warakuma High who was quite aware of their ways. Standing about in an attempt at smug superiority - which, even to the casual observer, was just them trying to salvage their 'pride' as self-proclaimed hot guys - they eyed the passing people for a new target until one of them nudged the others, pointing towards a nearby bench and the girl sitting on it, her eyes behind her glasses focused on the book in her hands. A few wry glances were exchanged between the boys - but with their absymal success rate, they decided to go with it.<br/><br/>Having put her bottle by her feet, Kotori had decided to extend her break by a little and had produced the book from her handbag; quickly finding the place she'd last left off. It was a mystery novel she'd heard was quite good and she was starting to get to the good bits when a voice interrupted her reading. ""Hey there, Missy. You alone here?"" It took Kotori a moment to realise that the voice was speaking to her - and, upon looking up, that the voice's owner was not alone. Glancing between the three with a quizzical expression, she nodded - and then scooched over a little to make more room on the bench before looking down at her book; presuming that the three boys were looking for a place to sit too.<br/><br/>Indeed, one of them did sit down - a little more closely than she'd really have liked - whilst the other two remained standing. They exchanged glances between each other before grinning - this was the first girl today that hadn't taken one look at them before storming off. ""Hey, what do you say we grab something to drink and have some fun, hmm?"" the boy sat beside her asked with his best ladykiller smile - or rather, an almost comical grin. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Kotori started, glancing between the three again - and only now recognising the three as a trio of more-or-less well-known wanna-be casanovas from Class 2-3. Her discomfort started to grow as she started glancing about for a quick excuse to leave; her fingers nervously moving up and down the book's back. <font color=""green"">""N-no, thank you,""</font> she tried to refuse with evident uncertainty in her voice; wholly unused to such a situation - even if the ambient noise wasn't easily enough to drown out her rather quiet voice anyway.</div>"

It had been a while since the group got in line, so they'd probably be off the ride and looking for him soon, not leaving him with much time to make a choice.<br/><br/>As he deliberated over the decision, he finished off his ice-cream sandwich with one last bite, and a shot of disappointment ran through him. That had been way tastier than it had any business being, and he kind of wanted another one.<br/><br/>And that was exactly the motivation he needed to head off on his own. He picked up his jacket off the railing and tied it around his waist, being careful with his wrist, before pushing himself off to head back to the ice-cream stand. As he let his craving take him over, he picked up his walking pace, eventually reaching his destination and getting into the short line.<br/><br/>The red-haired boy looked around as he waited, taking in more of the colorful sights that the park offered. Everyone looked so happy and excited here, with the exception of a crying child and exasperated parent or two. And no wonder -- they were all in an amusement park. It was in the name; this was supposed to be a fun place. So why was he not happy too? He was here with friends -- well, maybe not 'friends,' but schoolmates -- so he had no reason to be so... miserable? Maybe; he wasn't sure what he was. Not happy, though.<br/><br/>Toma's thoughts were put to a stop as he saw a group of four kids near a bench in the distance, three boys and one girl from the looks of it. With a flicker of recognition, his eyes widened a bit.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Hello sir, how can I help you?""</span><br/><br/>Toma shifted, taking a step back and craning his neck to get a better view. As he confirmed that it was Kotori, a soft smile broke out on his face. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Excuse me, sir! It's your turn to be served.""</span><br/><br/>He had to stop himself from going over to greet her -- it seemed she was here with friends. Ignoring the slightest pang of petty jealousy he felt, he couldn't help but be happy for her. It didn't seem like she hung out with friends like this often, so it was a nice sight to see.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Um, sir, you're holding up the line..."" </span><br/><br/>But something was off. One of the boys sat next to her, and she didn't seem too pleased about it. The three weren't letting off even as her discomfort became more apparent. Toma's brow furrowed as he felt himself getting angered again, the emotion only growing as he continued watching. Clearly, they weren't her friends. Toma began to walk towards them, wanting badly to hit all three of them.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""I-- uh, sir? O-okay then... I can help whoever's next.""</span><br/><br/>As he made his way over, he fought to calm himself down. Starting a fight would be dumb, considering the condition of his wrist and the fact that he was outnumbered. No, more importantly than that, a fight wouldn't help the situation in any way. All he had to do was help Kotori get out of her uncomfortable spot, and there were better ways to do that.<br/><br/>Taking a breath to calm and steel himself, he decided on how he'd go about it -- pretend they had come to the park together as part of a group, and that she had gotten separated from them, giving her an out. Hopefully this wouldn't embarrass her too much.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Hey, there you are, Kotori-chan!""</font> he said cheerfully with a wave, a bright smile on his face -- ironically the most genuine one he'd worn all day despite the fact that this was basically an act. <br/><br/>He'd barely gotten the words out when another, tough-looking girl showed up. She grabbed the kid on the bench and tossed him to the ground roughly, eliciting a dumbfounded stare from Toma as he processed what was happening. Shaking off his stupor, he decided to make his presence known, too. The three boys seemed thoroughly intimidated by the girl, but she <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> sort of taunting them into a fight. The pathetic mob didn't seem likely to take her up on it, but Toma figured it'd be better to be safe -- they'd be even less likely to accept her offer if they saw they'd have to deal with one extra person.<br/><br/>He stepped forward so that he was standing above the boy squirming on the ground. With raised eyebrows and a bright, mocking smile, he spoke. <font color=""#f26522"">""Hey bud, how's the view down there?""</font> Toma leaned down and offered to help him up, but his hand was quickly smacked away, drawing a controlled smile to his face. <font color=""#f26522"">""Alright then, no need to be rude."" </font><br/><br/>He stepped purposely over the boy and stopped next to the bench, leaning against it. He pulled out his phone and pretended to busy himself, letting the other girl do her thing -- going by her words, she had dealt with this lot before, so he had no reason to doubt she could do it again.<br/><br/>He glanced over down at Kotori, offering her a sympathetic, understanding smile.</div>"

Unfortunately, she was already sitting at the very end of the bench and thus her options were rather restrained, given the presence of the armrest blocking any further retreat; instead leaving her to try and come up with some way to tell the three that she wasn't really very comfortable - when all of a sudden, a voice called out. It took Kotori a moment to realise that said voice was calling out to her - and another before she realised that the was familiar.<br/><br/>Looking up, discomfort was momentarily replaced with surprise and confusion as she saw the owner of the voice, Toma Tanaka, heading towards the small group at the bench - but before she could do more than that, another figure approached, grabbing the sitting boy and yanking him off the bench. The tone of her voice made it clear that she wasn't exactly very pleased with what she was seeing. The boy in question gave a surprised ""Hey, what the?!"" as he found himself on the ground before looking at the reason thereof with a glare - at least for the second it took him to recognise exactly who it happened to be. His two buddies meanwhile had slowly taken a step back when they'd heard and seen the fourth boy approaching - and were exchanging very nervous glances when they too recognised Akane from their previous... meetings.<br/><br/>The three boys' hearts seemed to drop with every crack of Akane's knuckles as the memory of the first two times she'd peeled them off similar activities. They might not exactly be the quickest on the pickup, but even they knew they weren't going to get out of this without some injuries to either their bodies or their pride if they didn't get out soon. ""H-hey, let's get out of here, yeah?"" one of the two still standing boys suggested with a nervous glance and nod to no specific place other than 'not here.' The boy on the floor - both the apparent leader of the trio and the thickest of the bunch - was of half a mind to see if the third time would be the charm with Akane when he noticed that another boy had approached, offering him a hand.<br/><br/>Smacking it away, the leader pushed himself off the ground and away from Akane, stepping toward his two buddies. Their urging and reminders of what happened last time being enough to get through even to him that trying to have a go with Akane really wouldn't be the smartest thing - and even more embarassing with more people around, too. ""Just so you know, we were leaving anyway! We're letting you off lightly!"" he said in a tough guy voice - which probably would have sounded a bit more intimidating if he hadn't been backing away and having to suppress a nervous cracking of his voice before turning around and heading off at a rather brisk pace; his to buddies quickly following suit.<br/><br/>Kotori, meanwhile, had followed the entire exchange with a mix of confusion, surprise and a constant series of dumbfounded blinking at the sight. Only now that the three were actually leaving did the discomfort start to ease away - at least until she realised that she had yet to thank the two for their help. Quickly standing up, she bowed deeply to the two in quick succession. It was also only then that she actually got a good look at the other girl - who, much to Kotori's surprise, turned out to be someone not only from her school but even the same class, Akane Hanazawa. <font color=""green"">""Ah, thank you, Tanaka-senpai, Hanazawa-san,""</font> she said, her voice only barely audible over the noise of park. Glancing between the two, she quickly gave another bow between them. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... s-sorry...""</font> she began, unsure of what else to say; wanting to both express her thanks for their arrival and to apologise that they had had to do so in the first place when they had no reason to.<br/><br/>Ultimately, this left her fidgeting nervously with her skirt and she glanced between the two and the ground - though this time with a lot less uneasy discomfort than just moments earlier.</div>"

She waited a few moments until it was quite so she could changed. To be quite honest, Chiaki was feeling a little insecure, she looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair tied neatly into a long ponytail. At this point, she was covered by a nice soft towel, unsure if she would keep it on while in the hot spring or not. While looking in the mirror, she couldn't help at looking at her body in the mirror. <br/>""<font color=""#92278f"">There's nothing that good about me. These two a' huge, my stomach ain't flat enough and I'm so damn short. Hmm. Maybe I'll skip on da 'springs for the day.

Growing up with her Grandmother who was from Osaka, she gained the Kansai dialect and it stuck with her wherever she went, meaning she needed to forcibly hold it back so she didn't sound like a fool. Besides, she preferred her fake accent more than her real one. Shaking her head, she decided not to spoil the fun her cousin was most likely having, or going to have. ""<font color=""#662d91"">What da heck, I'll go hah, I wonda if Aya-chan has grown at all...</font>""<br/><br/>After truly getting ready, which included a good wash on her skin, Chiaki entered the hot spring room quietly. She unwrapped herself, and slid into the water as quietly as she could, she spied her cousin over in the corner, so she stealthily swam up to give her a good surprise. <br/>' Sneaky Heart. Sneaky Heart. Sneaky Heart '<br/>The water was really warm, it felt really nice against her skin. Mostly her legs, they were so tense from the exercise she had been doing with Noboru. There got to a point where she had to quickly, yet softly rub up and down her legs. It just felt absolutely wonderful. Her legs aside, she quietly paddled herself over to where Ayano was.<br/>""<font color=""#662d91"">SURPRISE AYA-CHAN!</font>""<br/>It was very sudden and very quick. Chiaki tickled her cousin from behind. She knew exactly where her weak points were, in between her thighs and just bellow her chest. The loud laughter was great to hear, but Chiaki quickly noticed somebody was watching them. A stranger! With a rather loud gasp, Chiaki stopped and went red.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#662d91"">Oh my goodness. Um! Hello there! I mean... Oh I'm soo embarrassed right now.</font></div>"

They seemed to be leaving her alone, which suited her fine. Though she wondered what they were doing here when there was a Yakuza meeting about to go down. Someone else entered, but it turned out to be one of the maids serving her glass of Pepsi. It probably wasn't a good idea to drink something cold while in the springs but Jun had a sweet tooth that needed satisfying.<br/><br/>The peace was promptly interrupt by a yell. The quiet girl was accompanied by a loudmouth. Great. Jun thought that the pair must be fulfilling some kind of trope on an anime show or something. She sighed and turned her head to watch. Some three-headed girl was tickling her friend - oh wait those were her boobs - in the hot springs, oblivious to the blonde girl's presence. A sly grin crossed her features as she noticed the two were rather cute, and seemed to be younger than her. Seeing as it was Golden Week and not many teenagers came to this inn from out of town, Jun guessed they had to be from Warakuma High as well.<br/><br/>If that was the case... she had an idea to pass the time.<br/><br/>Jun stood up, her tattoo fully visible to both of them for a brief moment. She turned around and walked over to pair, noting how red Jugs' face was. ""My, my, what have we here?"" She drawled, sitting down on a rock facing them. ""A pair of lost lambs wandering into the dragon's nest?""<br/><br/>She leaned in close to the flustered girl of the pair, no regard given for personal space or boundaries. Jun's face resembled one of those femme fatales in movies at the moment, her expression appropriate for that point where the villainess decides if she wants to seduce or kill the person before her. It was a bit of an exaggeration, of course, but Jun hadn't grown up among yakuza to be unable to both intimidate and charm at the same time.<br/><br/>""I'm Jun Himura, from Wakamura High. In case you two don't already know my name, my tattoos should tell you who I am."" A feral grin crossed her lips, her arms pressed against the edge for support while she towered over the other two.

As she did, her field of vision changed from the oriental hot springs to an all-too familiar park. She knows that she's been here before, the large sakura tree in the distance was the one thing that made Ayano feel..Nostalgic. If she remembered correctly, she spent a lot of time here with her parents, Chiaki as well, remembering all of this made Ayano giggle slightly, Chiaki herself just told her a story earlier when they were kids. The silliness made the girl's giggle turn into full-blown laughter as the landscape shifted once more, this time she was back to reality and in the springs. Looks like she was dozing off more than she could've expected, Ayano splashed some of the hot water on her face to wake herself from the trance and sighed as she went back to her original position. Looking around, it seemed that the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was still here, much to her chagrin.<br/><br/>All of a sudden, the peace was disturb when a loud voice shouted in surprise. Making her shriek from her position, suddenly arms made their way in between her thighs and just below her chest, the arms began to tickle her, making her burst out in laughter, despite her protests, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""S-Stop th..that!

The tickling was too much to bear and the spots they were hitting were just right, making her blush bright red. If it's one thing she knows, tickling is a very obscure way of...Heaving and out of breath from laughing, Ayano thanked the gods above that the relentless assault on her had finally ceased and her attacker was revealed to be none other than Chiaki herself...Who else would be able to know where to tickle? She began to remember that they were not alone...The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo turned to both of them. Ayano's face practically became a tomato at this point as she gulped down her fears, talk about embarrassing.<br/><br/>After she was done with Chiaki, the other girl leaned in close to her, making her reel back in response. The distance between their faces were zero and Ayano felt like she was about to get murdered by those horror movie villains once they've cornered the female protagonist. Thankfully she retracted and Ayano sighed in relief.<br/><br/>The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo introduced herself as ""Jun Kimura"" and she goes to the same school as them as well. Well then, that's just great. As Ayano survyed the girl from head to toe, she was reminded of a typical femme fatale type of character. She looked like she could kill you at any moment but would decide not to just for the kick of it. She's not embarrassed at all about flaunting her body like a fashion model.<br/>Jun told them that they came at an interesting time, making Ayano wonder.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Interesting?

It stung a little that this random girl thought he was himself a female, though after the whole debacle he had just went through, he almost questioned it himself. <font color=""skyblue"">”Wait, Noboru?”</font> It’d been weeks since Sato had last met with the underclassman, and wanting to be sure that they were discussing the same person, the teen pulled out his cell phone. He navigated back to the most recent text he had received from the second-year. The picture was clearly not taken by Noboru, and Sato doubted it was particularly consensual at the time of the photo based on the crowd framing the shot and dramatic stand-off the boy was apparently having, but it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> the only photo he had of Noboru.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”This Noboru?”</font> Sato held the phone out to show the stranger what was being displayed on the screen: a shot of a muscle-bound student posing in what looked to be a store or something. A distracting glare of light reflected off the sweat on the boy’s body.

Ten minutes past and no new notifications. Typical. Just as the male pushed off from the wall to head home, the next train arrived and Sato watched as all the passengers disembarked, just to be sure. While in a mixture of being unsurprised and surprised, Sato waved over to the club president. Rokurou approached with a scowl on his face and can of soup in his grasp, and Sato tried hard not to match it. It would be beneficial to be the higher one. The two stood silently for a moment despite exchanging very shallow nods, before Rokurou took a long drag from the can. <font color=""skyblue"">”You’re late, with soup.""</font> Not Sato’s strongest conversation starter.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”I would’ve had something before I came here but that would’ve made me later, and that would’ve caused your panties to get into an even tighter knot.”</font> An obnoxious slurp accompanied by a cutting glare.

It stuck a little more than it should’ve. <br/><br/>Rokurou took off back towards the shopping district and Sato walked beside him. <font color=""skyblue"">”You know that Mika and her squad are planning to overthrow you, or whatever dramatic term you’d like to use, right?”</font><br/><br/><font color=""red"">”’Course, they can’t just decide to kick me out.

I’m meeting someone here and I need to call them.”</font> Sato sighed before handing over his phone to the brawnier male, who immediately unlocked it with a precise motion. Though, just after he did so, Rokurou almost buckled to the ground while restraining his laughter. It took Sato a good couple of seconds to fathom what could be the source of such entertainment, and when he did, Sato nearly tackled the other boy, who kept the device just out of reach. <font color=""red"">”I didn’t know you were—""</font><br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”I don’t— I’m not— Just give me my phone back!”</font> Sato shouted, in the same tone as a child’s protest.

The teen grappled with Rokurou, clawing for the phone, until his slender frame was pushed away with one good shove.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Dude,”</font> Rokurou yelled with a huff of air. <font color=""red"">”I still need to make that call.

He gave them a mocking wave as they began turning around to retreat.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Hm?""</font> he asked while turning his head towards Kotori as she thanked them, still wearing his amused smile -- noting at the same time that the other girl's name was Hanazawa. <font color=""#f26522"">""No reason to thank me, Shirohane-san, I didn't do anything. It was all her.""</font> As he said so, he looked over at Hanazawa and gave her a friendly, appreciative smile, before looking back at Kotori. <font color=""#f26522"">""And don't apologize either, alright? Not your fault that those guys felt like being... uh, <span class=""bb-i"">jerks.</span>""</font> He stopped himself from using any harsher words, despite fully believing they'd give a more accurate description of the three.<br/><br/>Noticing Kotori picking at her skirt and looking nervous, Toma decided to continue talking and just generally try to be reassuring, hoping it would help put her at ease.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""They go to our school, right?""</font> he began, his left hand moving to scratch his nose. <font color=""#f26522"">""If they ever bother you again, let me know...""</font> He paused, realizing that -- as Kotori knew her name -- Hanazawa was likely in her year. <font color=""#f26522"">""Or ask Hanazawa-san. She seems to know how to deal with them well enough.""</font><br/><br/>Wanting to deflect as much attention off of Kotori as possible, he then turned to Hanazawa and gave her a respectful bow. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm Tanaka Toma, from class 3-1,""</font> he said, introducing himself. <font color=""#f26522"">""And I'm new to Warakuma...""</font> He paused, realizing that that wasn't really something he'd be able to continue saying. <font color=""#f26522"">""... well, relatively,""</font> he corrected.  A small, admiring grin crossed his face. <font color=""#f26522"">""That was awesome, how you scared them off just by glaring at them. I guess they pull stuff like this often?""</font></div>"

Excited as she continued to goad them into a fight, she simply justified it as doing her duty to help a poor defenseless girl in need, suppressing the thoughts rattling around in her head. Looking directly into the boy on the ground, who was clearly the leader, as his buddies pleaded for them to split, she waited for his decision as he remained there silent. For a moment, it was starting to look like he was up for a third round when they took noticed of another boy showing up. <br/><br/>As the boy offered a hand to the trio's leader, prompting him to smack the hand away, the mood began to change. It was then a sense of disappointment filled of Akane as she figured what the next turn of events would be. Shouldn't she be glad that she stopped them and saved the girl from getting hurt? It's not that she isn't happy, it's just....hmm. Shaking her head, she simply laughed at the boys parting words.

Not only did she go to the same school but also the same class. She also sits reasonably close to her. She was bound to run into people from her school, it is golden week and this is a key attraction, no surprise. Before she could say anything, the boy spoke up first. He seemingly knew Kotori and if she heard her right, he's their senpai, a third year. <br/><br/>As he waved off Kotori's thanks, he mentioned Akane as he turned towards her and smile. Despite this, she remained silent as she tried to figure him out. As soon as he stopped talking, she waited for a moment before finally speaking up. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Just as he said, No thanks are necessary. It's only natural to help someone out when they're in need.""</span></font> she beamed at Kotori with a reassuring smile. With the assurances over, he asked a question regarding the trio.

It was strange, considering she did it for Kotori and not him. It's like something a father or an older brother would do on behalf of the family. Well, they do know each other, given that, could be close friends? One way to make sense of it.

Gen flipped the switch and the alarm stopped, and the room gained once more its silent peace. A low groan could be heard from under the blankets. Maybe he should sleep until lunch? No, it was Golden Week; it was his moment. He needed to seize it as long as it was there, because then school will resume and he will not be able to loiter around.<br/><br/>A louder groan sounded as Gen flailed his arms a bit to uncover him.

Not only that, they even said that she should talk to them if she was bothered by the trio in the future - a kindness to which Kotori quickly raised her hands and shook her head. Not only did she not really think it was very likely that such a thing would be repeated, but she also wouldn't want to be a burden to either of them - but the smile that Akane gave, showing she really did not mind in the least, made her hesitate and lower her hands; giving the smallest of nods instead.<br/><br/>As the two introduced themselves to each other - apparently strangers to one another, though each knowing of Kotori in one way or another, Kotori quickly followed suit. Whilst she'd already met Toma before, she hadn't exactly spoken very much with Akane before. Bowing briefly, she gave her name and class, <font color=""green"">""Kotori Shirohane, also from Class 2-2,""</font> in her usual quiet voice - the nervousness from before having mostly receded by now. As Toma then asked about the three from before, Kotori gave a reluctant nod before Akane elaborated on the point - the three weren't exactly unknown around the school and had had run-ins with the Akane before, it seemed.<br/><br/>As her classmate spoke, Kotori looked at her in surprise - she'd heard that she was called a Prince by some of her fellow students, most of them girls, for her tendency to help out others in need, but to hear her put down taking on three boys by herself and winning - twice before even - wasn't quite the same. As she joked the she should have punched them harder, Kotori realised that whilst they'd asked if she was okay, the same couldn't be said for either of the two. <font color=""green"">""Ah, are you alright?""</font> she asked with some concern in both voice and eyes, glancing at both Akane and Toma in turn - though there hadn't been any real violence to be seen, Kotori would have felt guilty not asking seeing as any such injury would have been incurred because of herself.</div>"

The maid costume was to be used for the last time in awhile since this coming week's theme for the cafe was traditional Japanese with waiters as samurai and waitresses as kunoichi (female ninja). The apparent reason for this was the sudden popularity of a particular game with personified swords or somewhere along those lines.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the raven haired girl was to be absent on the first day of the theme change due to an appointment she made for herself. Said appointment now stood before her, a poster for the movie beginning its screening starting tomorrow, Persona 3: Falling Down.

The series over all was enjoyable to Shizuka which got her hooked to the point where there was no way she would miss any out for whatever reason.

Warm spring water swiftly slid down her smooth skin and off her thighs into the water. Her hair still dry and in a fierce ponytail, she managed to look as fierce as the girl with the dragon tattoo, minus the the tattoo of course. Having to hold her twins with her arm, she looked the woman in the eyes, trying to show no weakness. With her years of acting and modeling behind her, she could pull it off. But at the same time, she could sense a terrifying aura about this person.

She asked rhetorically, knowing that the girls had to be unaware if they thought this was just some inn they could spend their weekend at.<br/><br/>She sighed and sat down next to them, lowering herself until she could rest her head against the edge of the spring, reclined comfortably.

""Sit along the corridor facing the garden tonight then. There'll be a show to watch.""<br/><br/>""Chiaki and Ayano, is it?"" Jun confirmed their names again, before smiling wryly.

The boys with the big guns, straight up right in this inn?! Talk about inconvenience. Ayano quickly sank to the waters again and just stared in dumbfounded terror at her cousin, her whispers becoming frantic and her words becoming lost from all the panicked speed she's saying it in. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Shit, shit, shit!

It’s a wonder that walking ghost doesn’t scare people off.”<br/><br/>“I know, he looks so ill… I wonder why security lets him sleep on the benches like that?”<br/><br/>If Masashide had overheard this conversation once, he’d heard it a hundred times. Every day it’s the same thing, people calling him specter or a ghost… At least until they ask him to tutor them. Being one of the top students in the school had earned him attention- mostly from those looking to leech of him- but he didn’t care. All he cared about was passing his classes with the highest marks possible and it’s off to assist the town’s folk. Just the other day he had volunteered to assist cleaning up the amusement park, and had been there hours after he should’ve already gone home… What did he do then? Study for his classes until it was time to leave for school the next day.<br/><br/>Opening his eyes, he’d sit himself up as he stretched and yawned eyeing over the center plaza curiously. Seems he’d drawn a few spectators, mostly kids and classmates that stood and stared, all the while gossiping about his situations. But it wasn’t an illness or depression, just simply fatigue. It had been at least 36 hours since the last time he slept, and these benches certainly didn’t make it seem any shorter. Yet as he stood, he couldn’t help but stagger his stance. Every muscle in his body flexed and ached, the soreness made it hard for him to even walk. You figure after years of this, he’d become more accustomed… That never happened though.<br/> <br/>Walking past everyone without making eye contact, Masahide would begin strolling about the place. Though mostly to soothe the aches and pains in his legs, he’d come to enjoy just walking… There was a certain peace to it. Just like all the epic tales he’s heard and read, it felt like just another step in his own saga. It gave him time to reflect on the things he had done and yet to achieve. If he was going to be a symbol of perfection, he had a long way to go. Yet he would never stop trying, someone would recall his name and remember it as something to aspire too… Someday.<br/><br/>It wasn’t long after he started walking that Masa decided upon a change of scenery, after all, the countless eyes staring at him had become rather bothersome. Pausing a moment, he’d take out his phone and dial home. It wasn’t long after he walked through the doors to leave the complex that his mother picked up the phone, “Saji residence.”<br/><br/>“<font color=""#8493ca"">Hey, it’s-</font>“ He wasn’t able to finish a sentence before his mother lashed out him.<br/><br/>“Masahide! Where are you?! I just got a call from the mall that you’ve been sleeping on the benches again! Why didn’t you come home last night?!” Most of this Masa didn’t hear as he held the phone away from his head.<br/><br/>“<font color=""#8493ca"">I just called to tell you I’m heading to the amusement park. I’ll be home later.</font>” Looking about the town around him, he’d attempt to recall the directions on how to get there. Slowly, his memory recalled the way as he began his walk.<br/> <br/>“Do you want me to come pick you up? I could take yo-“ The concern in his mother’s voice was all to evident. Odds are if she came to get him, she’d take him to the psychiatrist again. Even his own mother thought this was a phase of some sort of mental illness that had beset him… She didn’t understand<br/><br/>“<font color=""#8493ca"">No. I’ll be fine.</font>”<br/><br/>“… Masa, you know I l-“ halfway through her reply, he stumbled, dropping his phone, causing it to shut as it hung up the call. His body would shudder as the pain coursed through him. First his body was betraying him, now his mother was hounding him, and then those odd dreams of a one hand man in armor. Maybe he was going crazy… Catching his breath, Masa stood up and dusted off his clothes. Pausing a moment with a sigh of relief, he’d retrieve his phone from the ground as he opened it back up. Sure enough, a text message from his mother.  ‘I Love U, Masa.”</div>"

Or that was what Masa chose to believe. Getting back his bearings, he'd attempt to walk off once more before pausing upon hearing an unfamiliar voice. Turning to see who had spoken, his eyes fell upon the raven haired girl that gave him a rather familiar look...<br/><br/>He was used to these sympathetic eyes, people feeling sorry for him or wanting to assist in his 'troubles'.

Though in all honesty, yakuza weren't just gangsters. As long as Jun gave the word, none of her father's men would harass the pair of girls.

She walked into the gardens, dressed in her kendo gear and armed with a bokken. A ring was loosely demarcated by the spectators, her opponent stepping in at the same time she did.<br/><br/>""It is an honour to see your skill firsthand, Himarua-sama.

It was vicious and brutal, neither party willing to hold back, especially not in front of the audience they had. Every blow was both testing their opponent's guard and a punishment for slipping up. Jun managed to dodge and sidestep most of his blows, but at the same time none of hers were really landing anywhere critical.<br/><br/>They broke off, the crowd cheering at how serious the fight was getting, while each combatant sized up their opponent. Jun was faster, more agile, but she couldn't match the raw strength or experience of her opponent. It would all come down to skill and who made the first mistake. Of course, she made the mistake of assuming they were going by conventional kendo rules.<br/><br/>Because when her opponent attacked a second time, he was aiming below the waist, at her knees, trying to knock her off balance. She stepped back nimbly, cursing her mistake. <span class=""bb-i"">So that's how you want to play, huh?</span> She cursed silently as she stepped back in and proceed to draw on all of her training. Her kendo instructor had been paid to teach her how to fight with a sword to injure someone instead of just for sport, and apparently her opponent was going for the same. Well, in for a penny, in for pound.<br/><br/>It was over in one movement. With impossible speed, Jun landed nine strikes successively, comprising the basic attacks one used to lethally wound an opponent with a real sword. <span class=""bb-i"">Kuzuryusen.</span>, her mentor had called it. There was a racuous cheer of victory from her father's side as her opponent crumbled to the floor and gasped out the yield. Silently, her father was glaring at how her opponent had gone for her unprotected leg and possibly tried to cripple her.<br/><br/>Jun just turned and left, eyes scanning to see if the two girls really had come to watch.</div>"

With the pale, ill complexion the face of the boy had, there was no way to proclaim that he was perfectly 'fine'. The stumble just now could have proven this point but before the female student could point out anything, he introduced himself. To return the courteous gesture, she politely bowed with her hands clasped in front of her as she made her own introduction. <font color=""violet"">""Li-Likewise, Saji-san.

Perhaps he could be well aware of his current condition? Did he just not appreciate help from total strangers? After a moment of conflict for what she should do in this situation, the raven haired female decided that she could not simply leave a troubled person alone. Maybe he had to see for himself how fatigued he appeared to be convinced he might require some assistance.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""I-I don't mean to trouble you any further bu-but your face shows clear signs of exhaustion.

'This is a random time for her to check her-', seeming somewhat surprised as she turned it in his direction. At first, he was disinterested, glancing away as he nearly turned and walked away... However, upon closer inspection of himself, he now knew the reason for her worry.<br/><br/>Honestly, it had been awhile since Masa took stock of his appearance. The dark circles forming under his eyes, the pale complexion, and the dazed look in his eyes. His daily routine didn't give him any time to preen himself too much, merely running a comb through his hair and putting on his best suit of clothes. Seems time was finally taking it's toll. Shaking his head with a subtle sigh, he'd turn to face her fully. Though still seeming somewhat rigid, he'd offer a subtle smile as he swept his hand through his hair.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#8493ca"">Yeah... I guess I'm looking a little rough.</font>"" Shrugging his shoulders as both hand now found their way to the pockets of his pants, ""<font color=""#8493ca"">Still, I'll be fine, truly.

Slightly relieved that the sickish student was now aware of his current state, she hoped the other would take better care. She nodded in response to both statements, about how he didn't appear as healthy as he should and why he was in such a condition. While being a high school student, it wasn't unusual for Japanese students to be over busy with part time jobs, cram schools and such, perhaps he was one of the more busy ones.<br/><br/>As the name, ""Warakuma High"" was mentioned by the other student, Shizuka's lips formed a faint smile and her head tilted lightly to the side. <font color=""violet"">""Oh!

This was one of the first times he had actually held a conversation with his fellow students. In fact, it was actually a relief. It was hard for him to wander about without at least someone knowing who he is, or at least his reputation in school. Though he was an excellent student, he had earned a reputation for his appearance- often called ghost or specter in reference to it. For the most part he brushed it off, just a few ignorant idiots that had no idea how much he had given to the town. 'They'll all remember me some day... And they won't be laughing then.'

I'll work out, get cleaned up and help you in the shop and then I'll head out, promise."" Rikimaru stood up and bowed, reiterating his promise.<br/><br/>There was massive relief on their faces. This might be easier than they thought it would be, having Rikimaru around.<br/><br/>True to his word he finished working out, got cleaned up and was helping I'm the ramen shop.

He'd often ask himself what did he have to be scared of, but he could never found an answer.<br/><br/>With a heavy sigh Rikimaru started walking around the mall. Going in and out of shops and checking out what was inside. They were mostly clothing stores. That wasn't all bad, a good pair of jeans and a decent shirt never hurt anyone and he was always in the market for a new mask.<br/><br/>The more he wondered around the more he wanted to play his guitar. He knew that back home in Kadena, on the Air Force base and around town it was much more Americanized than here but what extent he didn't know. Did they look down on people playing music in public?  He wasn't playing for money or anything, just cause he wanted to, could that be such a bad thing?<br/><br/>He was gonna find the answer to this particular quandary. When he found a place to sit, he slung the soft bag in his back that contained his guitar off his back and pulled out his flat top box.<br/><br/>This particular one had nylon strings, fit for his style of classical, flamenco, and folk. With a quick strum his worries seemed to flutter away. He moved his bag off to the side and ensured it was closed and started to play.<br/><br/><iframe allowfullscreen="""" frameborder=""0"" height=""279"" src=""//youtube.com/embed/8B6jOUzBKYc?theme=dark"" width=""496""></iframe><br/><br/>His hands moved expertly from one string to the next, never missing a note. Smile formed under that mask if his, and a big one at that. It took all of ten seconds for his eyes to shut and get lost in the music. Losing track of the people and the noise or anything else that was going on around him.<br/><br/>With each passing stike of the strings, Rikimaru couldn't help be happy, trouble and worries floated away. Yet sadly like all great things,the song and his playing had to come to an end. The remedy was simple enough, just play another song and he intended to. For for now though, he just wanted to revel in one of his favorite songs, the Malaguena.<br/><br/>He looked at his guitar and was just happy to have it and be able to play. It was then he noticed a small gather of people around him. He didn't like them looming at him all that much. He just ignored it and played another one.</div>"

She looked lost and hopeless, her yellow eyes welling with pain as her arms tightened around her wispy figure.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Not so confident now, are you?""</font> Leiko finally found her voice again, soft and yet surprisingly strong as she looked at her Shadow straight in the eye. <font color=""yellow"">""Always looking to stay on top. Stay in the spotlight. It feels good...having people bow to that power.""</font> She shook her head piteously. <font color=""yellow"">""And Noboru is right. Being a President was only ever about me. Making <span class=""bb-i"">myself</span>  feel important, special. Everyone else came second.""</font> She took a sharp intake of breath, her phone strap clutched tightly into her palm like it was giving her the strength to continue. <font color=""yellow"">""In truth, I really am a selfish person. I really can't accept the idea of someone besting me. And yet...having you guys coming to rescue me...made me really happy.""</font> She made a disgusted noise under her breath. <font color=""yellow"">""This place is like my delusion of grandeur. An impossible dream of owning something that's entirely mine. But I needed to be dethroned one day...""</font><br/><br/>She looked over at her Shadow and smiled, an action that surprised even herself.<font color=""yellow"">""Rather than trying so hard to rule over everyone, why don't we focus on supporting the ones that do care about us? How does that sound, me?""</font><br/><br/>The Shadow looked surprised for a moment at Leiko's confession, a smile gracefully forming on her lips as she took a final bow before fading away.<br/><br/>Suddenly, a graceful, feminine <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/0HR5zrk.png"" rel=""nofollow"">figure</a> appeared before her, flowers and vines coiling around her wrists as a calm, comforting serenity radiated from the ethereal being. Leiko didn't know why, but looking at her made her feel warm and safe, like a maternal embrace. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">I am thou...and thou art I.<br/><br/>I am Titania, the fairy queen of dreams...</span><br/><br/>The magical being was gone a moment too soon, a gush of wind rippling through her as a card bearing the Roman numeral III appeared from the aether and slipped into her fingers. So this was...a Persona? The name that echoed in her head felt right, somehow.<br/><br/>So the ordeal was finally over...<br/><br/>She turned her head towards the others, a weak smile adorning her face even as she felt her legs about to give way. <font color=""yellow"">""That was a great performance...everyone.""</font><br/><br/>With that, she felt her body finally falter as her knees hit the solid ground.<br/><br/>She really did feel...tired.</div>"

The party had unanimously decided to head back out now, now that this dungeon was conquered. Kazuki and Megumi were waiting back in a safe area. These dungeons appeared to linger though... They didn't simply disappear when the shadow was conquered, he never thought about that, but it didn't seem to be important at the moment.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Enchanted Woodland - Entrance<br/>26/4/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Riku, good work, and the rest of you too, good work""</font>, he began.

The point is-""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">""The point is, you're the goddamn leader, I know. But I'd rather fight, it's what I do and you know that""</font>, Kazuki seemed to back down here. Looks like he knew Riku was better suited to fighting...<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Enough of this. We have more people now anyway, so I guess you don't need to be out there...""</font>, he resigned.<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">""Besides, I have jack for leads.

Right. This boy here is Riku Zakimoto. He is also one of us... I had him trying to find out more about the cult, but that hasn't been...""</font>, Riku simply made an annoyed sound and looked away. He seemed to be a rather bad tempered guy...<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""I-I-In any case! We're all a team... Right?""</font>, Megumi was clearly the one keeping them from turning on each other. The two calmed down a bit when she entered the conversation.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Yeah... But I think this is a good opportunity. We still need to make progress on the cult, otherwise we'll be doing this until they all die of old age""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""I will investigate""</font>, Kami spoke up. Everyone turned to him. It made sense... He was the son of a police officer, so he would know his way around some investigative techniques...<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Hah! Excellent! A volunteer, and a cool-minded one at that...""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""B-by the way... I think, you should take some people along with you Kami, I had trouble keeping track of more than 4 people, on top of enemies... So I don't think we can have a very big party when we go into the dungeons... Just to be safe""</font>, so this was one of her limits... Her Persona's communication abilities seemed to be incredibly strong, but now that she's begun to have to keep track of more people, it's become clear they're not as strong as everyone had thought...<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Hmm... That would be helpful, to have some people to help. If everything about the cultists is true on their methods up until now, then having some people watching my back would be a good idea""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Agreed...

This wasn't her room... But wait, she fought that... Her Persona... She fainted after... And this voice is... Leiko turned around, and saw a man, with piercing bloodshot eyes as round as the full moon, and a long nose that left an instantly lasting impression on her. She examined the room she was in, and her state. She looked at her hands, and they were in black-blue silk gloves, going all the way up to below her shoulder, with some fancy frills. But it appears her outfit was a dress, and she could feel something soft against her neck... It was a mink scarf, and her head. There was a wide-rimmed hat with flower adornments. The colouration was generally black, blue and some bits of gold and purple. It was rather... Fancy. She could get used to this. She noticed next upon the chair and table she sat, in front of her was a marking, labelled ""Empress""... As she thought this, her Persona Titania came to her mind.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""It appears, another guest has arrived...""</font>, Leiko was almost startled as he began to talk.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Do not be alarmed. My name is Igor, this is the Velvet Room, this place exists between dream and reality, mind, and matter""</font>, he began. She glanced around a bit, and saw other silhouettes. Four were discernible. Rui, Kami, Noboru, and Matt, but they didn't appear to be 'there'.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Only those who have signed the contract, are allowed here. It appears your friends have rescued you from a rather... Unfortunate fate, and thus you have realized your own flaws, and awakened the 'Empress'. A fine Arcana, it symbolizes... Motherly instinct, to care for those around you, just as a mother would to a child... Or it can be an ugly obsession, as you have seen that side of yourself already I need not say more""</font>, his voice was rather... Well it was surprisingly fine and clear, yet... Creepy. His expression barely changed as he spoke too.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Based on the numerous empty seats around you, I suppose you can gather, that there are others who share your fate, many more in fact... So I leave you with this""</font>, Igor clicked his fingers, and emerging from the side was a lady in blue matching the room, with long straight blonde hair.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is Henrietta, she will present you with a key so that you may return here of your own accord, when you so wish...""</font>, as he was saying this, she placed a key in front of Leiko.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But until then... Farewell""</font>, as he said those words, Leiko felt forcibly forced into a state of unconsciousness.</div>"

Here,”</font> Rokurou tossed the phone back over to Sato, who nearly fumbled the catch.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Are you late <span class=""bb-i"">for a date</span>, Rokurou? Come on.”</font> Sato took a quick glance at his phone screen (for pretty much no reason, considering he wouldn’t just recognize the girl’s number) before slipping the device back into his pocket and returning his gaze to Rokurou’s tired-looking face. He briefly wondered if the teen still stood up until the middle of the night, but dropped the thought as he responded to his chiding.<br/><br/>	Rokurou scoffed. <font color=""red"">”Are you surprised? Besides, when have you dated anyone? It’s not that big a deal, so cool your jets.”</font> The boy threw the presumably empty can into the (wrong) trash before jogging off. Without even a good-bye. Sato let out a heavy sigh as he watched Rokurou run down the street, dodging house wives and other teens as he went. At least they didn’t seem to be on the worst of terms any more, though he supposed Rokurou still had a lot of growing up to do before they could repair their relationship. As he started his way back home, Sato considered fishing the can out of where Rokurou threw it and putting it into the proper bin, though he discarded the thought when he realized it wouldn’t exactly look very proper to do so.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>	The door made a loud creaking sound as Sato entered, alerting his mother of his entry. The slight woman peered around the corner to make sure it was Sato, and upon confirmed it was him, she slipped from behind the wall with a smile. <font color=""silver"">”Welcome home, dear.”</font> She greeted. Sato responded with a small smile as he handed the envelope off to his mother. <font color=""silver"">”I hope they didn’t cause you any trouble there, honey. They seem to be awfully under-staffed there as of lately.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Yeah, it was nothing bad. I cleaned some dishes to help out there and hung out with some friends after.""</font> Sato replied, slipping out of his shoes as he spoke. His mother gave him one of those warm ‘I’m glad you turned out so well’ smiles, and Sato had to stop himself from frowning. <font color=""skyblue"">”Do you mind if I ask what the contents are, Mother?""</font><br/><br/> <font color=""silver"">”Oh, it’s nothing, no need to worry about it. Just something that Hoshikawa borrowed from me long ago.”</font> Sato looked up at his mother’s face as she clenched the envelope in one hand. She looked the same as Rokurou; like they only fell asleep when the sun rose. He wanted to say something about his observation, but held his tongue, and instead slipped past the adult and started up the stairs. He stopped, however, when he felt a hand brush his shoulder. <font color=""silver"">”You can talk to me about anything, honey.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”I’m fine, Mother. Really.”</font> Sato gave her a warm look to reaffirm his point. He scooted upstairs, withdrawing into his room for the night, throwing off his coat and socks as he entered. Though, before he could close the door, he couldn’t help but hear his mother’s weak breathe of air over the silence of the house.<br/><br/> <font color=""silver"">”I’m not.""</font><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span><br/>// <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGbW44AEHeM"" rel=""nofollow"">Kawaguchi</a></div><br/><span class=""bb-b"">APRIL 27 2015, MONDAY<br/>Mid-day</span><br/><br/>	The four sat around a small table, facing out to the glass window and onto the lively streets. Sato, Mika, Rento, and Hitomi all came to Rento’s family’s restaurant for lunch after they’d gone shopping for an hour. They hadn’t bought much as they were still waiting to go out with Rento, who was doing a shift as a waiter, though Sato did purchase a new button-up shirt using some of the cash he had earned from yesterday’s ordeal. It was much snazzier than the white print (which displayed one of the kanji of his last name) tee he wore under his overshirt. The others wore similarly casual outfits.<br/><br/>	From behind the steam rising from his cup of tea, Sato watched the people on the streets pass by, only half participating in the conversation he was in. There didn’t seem like there was an awful lot to do that he was interested in, despite it being Golden Week. His family hadn’t planned any kind of trip or anything, so he opted to just enjoy the time off with his friends. Sato’s eyes lowered down to the plate of food in the center of the table, and he took an egg roll after a moment of consideration. The food wasn’t particularly amazing, but it was still pretty good. According to Hitomi, she was a regular at the restaurant ever since it opened and it didn’t take long before she and Rento were exchanging love-notes whenever Rento served her. Sato could see how they could fall for each other easily, considering they shared similar interests and were both rather attractive to boot. Though, Hitomi was a bit too muscular for Sato’s tastes. When he thought about it, he realized that he was the only one who wasn’t into all that track stuff out of his friend circle. Archery was just an exception for him.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">”When’s your shift over again, Rento?”</font> Hitomi asked. The lunch rush was almost over and Rento was just lazily wandering up and down the restaurant, looking for something to do, while sometimes stopping to talk to the group.<br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">”I can pro’lly go ask my mom if I can get off work now,”</font> Rento quickly replied before making his way to a weathered woman manning the store’s front. He pleaded his case with his mother for a bit until she gave a nod, and Rento went off into the back to presumably get changed. Sato turned back around in his seat to face the table again. Hitomi waited by the front door, and Mika was looking around the table in a similar fashion as himself. They met eyes briefly.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”They seem like a very nice couple. You interested in dating yourself, Mika?”</font> Sato asked, a slight smirk on his face. He took a sip out of his tea and set it back down as quietly as he could.<br/><br/> <font color=""palegreen"">”Oh shush, Sato. I know what you’re implying.”</font> She playfully threw a napkin at him. He caught it before it could fall and set it back on the table. <font color=""palegreen"">”I mean, Rokurou’s nice and all, but he’s not for me. I don’t care of him out of love. We’ve been friends since we were kids and I can’t just let him muck himself up now, can I? He’s already dating someone else anyways so it’s not like I could get him even if I wanted him.”</font><br/><br/>	Sato leaned back in his seat a bit, turning his gaze over to where Rento exited from. He and Hitomi briefly embraced before starting their way over to the table. <font color=""skyblue"">”I wonder who she is though. I was figuring you would have known, considering you’re probably the most in-the-loop person I know.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""palegreen"">”That’s an odd compliment,”</font> Mika replied as she rose from her seat, pulling on a short denim jacket as she did so. She looked at the couple before looking back at Sato. <font color=""palegreen"">”Shall we be going now?”</font></div>"

How was she coming to terms with the recent events? He hoped she got the goody basket he sent as well. Full of fruits, and a few hidden sweets. It wasn't much, but he got the idea from Chiaki when he was in the hospital. Hopefully it didn't seem too creepy.

If there was someone else who could do it for her, that would've been absolutely stellar. Her chance came soon enough. The girl was walking besides them. She had short hair and some kind of choker or such around her neck. The luck of Akari was coming into fruition again, like it always did. She never failed to get lucky. She waited as they wondered into the mall. She directed Noboru where to go, following the girl but too close as to cause suspicion. It was gonna be hard to get it started, it seemed as if the girl wasn't quite an aggressive fighter, only choosing her battles wisely. She'd have to make sure Noboru struck first. Now.<br/><br/>Akari walked upside and sped up with Noboru still in front.

One of the few holidays that you were not morally obliged to spend with your family. Gen decided to go to the mall. He did not intend to buy anything, but the sales always seemed to be so very appealing that he felt he <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> have to get it. Even if it was completely unnecessary, which was the case most of the time. That was the reason why he brought only the necessary money with him; enough to buy something cheap and probably something to eat or drink, and maybe to take the bus back home if he felt lazy enough. Gen admitted regretting that course of action because now he will be tempted to take the bus.<br/><br/>Warakuma was not exactly known for its size, so Gen reached Ferrero Mall sooner than expected. That was what happens when you have long legs: you cover more ground in less time and become more efficient, thus preventing the natural selection from coming for you. Funny how that worked, really; the short and the weak died while the tall and the strong prevailed. But what if you were tall and weak? Would you be… half-dead, half-alive? Interesting. Maybe sensei would know, but he could not ask them without being into topic already. It would be very awkward to ponder the whimsical decisions of life while learning math or history. However, Gen wrote down a mental note and stored it at the back of his brain; this will surely keep him awake at night.<br/><br/>Gen’s eyes caught something. A guy, dropping his phone, falling apart by the exhausting weight of society and, unable to bear the agonizing fate that has been pre-written for him, gives in to the torturous embrace of tiredness. No wait, that was exaggeration. He was overthinking this. He probably just dropped his phone because he had grease on his hand caused by delicious food. But then! That would mean he needs assistance! He probably did not have napkins, or something to drink. Gen had none of those. But he had some money! He could exchange it for goods and services! Capitalism!<br/><br/>After probably the longest queue of his life and having bought a bottle of water, Gen turned around and saw… someone else helping the guy. A girl, shoulder-length hair one. What? WHAT?! But, he saw him first. What could Gen do now? He could drink the water and leave them be, except he could not. No. He had used his money for a reason, and that was to assist someone in need. Gen was determined on his resolve, and so walked towards the two people talking. <font color=""skyblue"">“Hey!”</font> He waved, before the incident happened. <font color=""skyblue"">”Maybe it’s too late, but I saw you fall and I thought you may need some wa-“</font> And that was when it happened.

Gen could only hope that their reflexes were okay and they would dodge the sudden, unintended attack.</div>"

Anything was worth a shot at this point.<br/><br/>His first order was business was getting something to eat. He would need find a place where he could eat in private, or at least where he wouldn't stand out.<br/><br/>After getting his food which seem to take forever, he found a spot where he thought he would be safe. So far out of the way that Rikimaru even felt safe taking off his mask. Resting his head in his hand, using his hand to cover up the part of his face he didn't want anyone to see.<br/><br/>He had a great view of every thing that was going on. Even what looked like some sort of a commotion. Rikimaru missed the opening salvoes and wasn't really sure what was going but why mkas a good fight?<br/><br/>He quickly put down his food and got his mask on. He was in such a hurry he didn't even both to try to keep it covered up. He was only half way finished with his meal so after getting his mask on Rikimaru brought it with him. If worse comes to worse he could throw it at someone to get an edge.<br/><br/>""Everything okay?"" He asked when he walked up. Food was in both hands as he tried to put the pieces together of what was going on.<br/><br/>There was a chuckle that slipped out when the klutz came. Today was gonna be a good day.<br/><br/></div>"

They'll have to learn eventually.""</font><br/><br/>He blinked when she mentioned his wrist, briefly looking down at his bandaged up right one, before quickly realizing she was talking about the little slap he had received on his left.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Oh,"" he said, smile returning to his face. ""Yeah, I'll have to get this checked out. Look, he even scratched me with his fingernail a little.

It quickly dropped when the other boy practically jumped him from behind, throwing his arm around Toma's neck, all while laughing away. As the red-haired boy struggled to keep his balanced, he glanced around the park, seeing that many passerby's were staring at the scene that was being made.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Oh? Hello!""</font> Arata said cheerfully, noticing Kotori. <font color=""#fff200"">""I'm Kimura Arata from class 3-2, and I'm the captain of the Track Club, which pretty much makes me Toma-kun's boss!""</font> he spouted off, leaning forward excitedly and dragging Toma with him, still holding his neck. The taller boy quickly moved to pull Arata off -- even he found the guy overwhelming, so he couldn't imagine Kotori enjoying his presence all too much. Add onto that the stares they were getting, and all Toma wanted to do was get Arata away.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed145b"">""No, it doesn't,""</font> said a light but exasperated female voice. A moment later, Arata's rambling was cut off by a hand reaching up and pulling hard on the back of his collar. <font color=""#ed145b"">""At all.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Gah! Tsuru-chan, stoppp!""</font> he protested, though his bright smile was still there.<br/><br/>These people had zero clue how to <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> draw attention. Toma gave an annoyed sigh to collect himself from the sneak attack. Despite how much more appealing sitting with Kotori sounded than getting dragged around by the track members some more, he no longer had a choice. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""I'll see you around,""</font> he said with a tired smile as he glanced at Kotori. He turned back to Arata, placing his hand on the boy's shoulder as he walked, urging him away. <font color=""#f26522"">""Come on, Kimura-kun, let's get back to the group.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Ah, okay!

He doesn't know how annoying he is,""</font> she said suddenly, wearing a flighty smile. A flash of realization appeared on her face for a moment, before instantly reverting to her simple, unconcerned expression. <font color=""#ed145b"">""Oh, I'm Yamada Tsuruko, Class 1-2.""</font> She paused again, deciding she should get back to her group. <font color=""#ed145b"">""Well, goodbye,""</font> she said simply, giving a small wave as she turned and walked away calmly.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">April 27th, Late Morning | Shopping District - Yoshida Book Café</span><br/><br/>Toma once again found himself in the old man's bookstore, unpacking and shelving books in order. The man had called him early in the morning, saying he had found a bunch more boxes that he had forgotten about, and asking if Toma'd like to help out for pay again. Of course, the boy had accepted and got himself ready for the day, making his way straight over.<br/><br/>He had been surprised to see that the store was already open for business, though no one had come in half-hour Toma had been there.<br/><br/>The boy looked around the quaint shop as he opened the next box. Though he had never been much of a reader, he found the place to be interesting. Every wall was lined with shelves of old-looking books, save for a portion of the back wall, which was where the counter and door to the backrooms were. Littering the floor were various sofas and chairs, and small tables. As the old man had explained, customers could order a drink, pick any book that interested them, and sit down to read it. And if they wanted to buy any of the books, they could.<br/><br/>The ringing of the door, signalling that someone had entered, brought Toma back. He glanced at the customer, an elderly woman, who moved to look at the shelves near the front of the store. After placing the books he was holding down, he moved to the backrooms, which served as both a storage area and the old man's living space.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Yoshida-san,""</font> Toma called out. When that got no response, he poked his head into a room that couldn't be considered anything but a closet, and saw the man sound asleep on the futon he had laid out, out of the covers and fully clothed, like he had just passed out.<br/><br/>Wait. Was he dead? <font color=""#f26522"">""Yoshida... san?""</font> Toma asked quietly, staring hard at the unmoving body. After a tense moment, the man's chest rose up, and fell again -- a sure sign of breathing.<br/><br/>Toma let out a relieved sigh, and wondered why his mind had immediately feared that the guy had died. He was old, yeah, but still.<br/><br/>He looked out the door into the shop, and saw the customer seemed to have found a book that interested her. Not wanting to disturb Yoshida, he decided to try to hold down the fort until the old man woke up. Toma knew how to make coffee, and he was decent with people, so he figured it wouldn't be too difficult -- especially considering how few customers this place seemed to get. In fact, Yoshida had said that he ran the whole store alone.<br/><br/>Taking one last moment to steel himself, he stepped out behind the counter, wearing a welcoming smile.</div>"

That was the only thought that crossed Masahide's mind as he slowly began rising from his bed. The park had took a number on the boy, causing sharp pains and aches to course through his body from the labor the night before. Still, the boy forced himself to his feet as he began to put on a fresh suit- all the while yawning and stretching as he tried to adjust. Shortly after, he'd find himself in the bathroom neighboring his bedroom, going over the same routine as he briefly styled his hair and turned to leave. It was then that he paused, eyeing himself over in the mirror as he looked over himself- as he did the night before. Still as pale as a ghost, and those dark circles under his eyes still prevalent. '... Maybe I'll head home early tonight?' Masa thought to himself as he continued to leave the room, making his way down stairs.<br/><br/>The hardwood platforms creaked softly under the weight of the boy, despite having survived many generations of the Saji family, it was beginning to show it's age. Even then, it was very well maintained: nearly no dust was present, the carpets well cleaned, and even the lights in the house seemed to be new. Or at least immaculately well kept. But the visual were soon trumped by the scents wafting about the abode, originating form the kitchen as subtle clatter and commotion would be heard. Reaching the doorway within moments, Masa would peek his head inside- spying his mother and her daily practice of cooking breakfast...<br/><br/>""<font color=""#8493ca"">Morning.</font>"" Masahide spoke as he now fully entered the kitchen, causing his mother to jump as if slightly startled.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#f49ac2"">Masa?</font>"" She replied, setting her whisk aside for a moment as she seemed somewhat awe struck. True, it had been a while since Masa had made time to converse with his mother, and even longer since he'd stopped by for her cooking. Still, the look subsided into a warm smile as she returned to her labors, ""<font color=""#f49ac2"">Glad to see you up and about. I was worried you were going to sleep all day, what with you coming home so late.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#8493ca"">I didn't plan on being up this early either... But I've got a couple of things to do before practice today.</font>"" Masa made his way to the counter at his mother's side as he leaned against it, unable to suppress an audible groan from the strain his muscles were experiencing.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#f49ac2"">Really, Masa?</font>"" His mother's eyes had that look again... The same look he had gotten the night before form that girl, ""<font color=""#f49ac2"">Could you skip at least one day to get some rest? I mean, you haven't mis-</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#8493ca"">I'm fine.</font>"" Masa replied curtly, eyeing over his mother out of the corner of his eyes as he forced himself to stand... The concern on his mother's face was more then evident, but he wouldn't hear another word, ""<font color=""#8493ca"">I'll try to be home after practice.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#f49ac2"">Masa... Just- Be careful.</font>"" Was his mother's final reply, placing her free hand on his shoulder as she leaned in to kiss him upon the cheek, before returning to her work. As Masa left his home, the sound of the shutting door would trigger his mother to pause in her efforts as she began to cry.<br/><br/>------------------------------------------------<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h1"">Ferrero Mall</div></div><br/><br/>It seemed like an eternity had passed as Masa entered the mall, his legs tensing up and cramping slightly as he paused a moment. It had only been yesterday since he had been here, but all at once it seemed like a different place. Was it always this busy? Had he just not noticed? Even with experiencing the rush firsthand, it was different looking from the outside in. Still, he'd begin traversing the mall, though with no real goal in mind. Even he didn't know why he was here... A few people had recognized him and snickered slight, but all at once their attention became diverted as they rushed to a growing commotion. Though curious, Masa would make no attempt to actually see what was going on- merely posting himself upon a wall as he watched over the crowd.<br/><br/>A lucky split in the crowd revealed what looked to be a fight, ""<font color=""#8493ca"">Really? In broad daylight? What type of idiots would throw down in the mall at a time like this?</font>"" Shaking his head, he'd merely wait patiently, watching the events play out- an amused smirk subtly spread across his lips.<br/></div>"

Before his reaction, the cooling water came splashing onto him, refreshing him and invigorating him to keep fighting.<br/><br/><font color=""navy"">""Oh that water feels good.""</font> He remarked out loud, not knowing why he did.

Her father and his 'friends' were in a private hall to discuss business, and Jun was not interested in listening to the different ways Yakuza came up with innuendo for blackmail, murder and extortion.<br/><br/>""Arere? My kouhais are here?"" Jun commented to herself, finally noticing the two girls hanging out by themselves. She considered going over to join them, but thought better of it. There wasn't any point in imposing herself on them, especially not when they seemed to be utterly terrified of her. Her badass female deliquent persona only worked in clubs, she supposed. Besides, she was bored to the point that even talking to the pair of them was a chore at this point.<br/><br/>She walked past the two of them on her way out, and signalled to the waitress at the dining hall.

Any audience who had watched the previous movie in the series would be aware of who she was currently dressed up as, in fact, a couple of the fellow viewers commented or asked a photo of her.

Catching a few stray elbows and shifting bodies, the boy would nearly collapse from it all as his muscles strained.

There was no need for this kinda brutality. This chick was going to hurt this dude something awful if no one stepped in. One guy had a comment that didn't amount to anything. Yay that guy.<br/><br/>Rikimaru wasn't that guy. For the moment, he was a man of action that was gonna get hurt. He made his mind up to get ther attention and play keep away. Hopefully she'd calm down enough to talk after a few seconds. He doubted it but why not dream?<br/><br/>If he was gonna do it why not go big? This was gonna suck cause well, she was pretty and she can fight. What's not to like about her? Outside of the rage and trying to kill people thing.<br/><br/>Rikimaru first threw what's left of his food at the girl who wants pity. Rikimaru didn't have any pity for her but he was sure the rice he had was a pretty nice substitute. His next target was the Beast Mode Betty. He moved as quickly as he could to get in position for a Superman Punch. It was a great opening maneuver. Especially since he was gonna hit her on the side of her face. <br/><br/>If his first hit stayed true and hit its mark Rikimaru would quickly back away if only to get her away for the poor boy getting shit beat out of him. This didn't account for anyone else joining in on the fight. It was a weak tactical move but it had to be done, he doubted anyone else would be as tough to handle as Beast Mode Betty. <br/><br/>Back away, cover, defend and hope his defense was better than her offense. He was a counter fighter by nature and because of that he not only had to get hit first but he had be tough enough to take the hits. History had shown he was more than able to take them, he jus didn't how hard she was gonna hit.<br/><br/>In the back of mind he had hoped she would come in with a huge bar brawlers punch. They were easy to block and he could fire right off it and get a clean look at her jaw. A punch or elbow with that kinda look would be lights but he was rarely ever that lucky.<br/><br/></div>"

It was then the interlopers made themselves known, one of which thought it was necessary to move in and toss food at her, though she was unaware.

Trying to get back up, he could hear the fabric already tearing. His shirt had been caught on a stray nail in the ground, and had stuck on it, ripping straight off of his body. Oops.

Hehe, monkey-men. Wait, were they like sea-monkeys, but with… manliness instead of sea? They were the ancient wielders of the flames of manhood, the sacred defenders of what truly meant to be a man and a monkey. They probably threw their own feces at their enemies too. Would Gen not give anything to meet one of those legendary heroes, to learn their secrets, well, not the ones involving excrement, but the manhood flame – oh, that one, yes – he would be invincible. Invincible!<br/><br/>And yet Gen was not moving. He was very much preoccupied with the monkey-men that he forgot to move. The tall freshman jumped towards the safety of the crowd before punches went flying his way, his reflexes sharper than ever. Fear made people do incredible things, like jumping just at the nick of time, enduring excruciating pain, or even throwing your own fe- Okay, maybe Gen should stop with that. It was unhealthy. Was if he were to say it out loud? That would be his downfall. He already was not the best of students, nor was he the worst. Why did he even try to help? It was recently turning into a bad habit. Actually, it has only been a bad habit, since it made things go from bad to worse. He was not really sure about this particular case, though.<br/><br/>Gen elbowed his way out of the crowd of roaring spectators. Why, oh, why did the mall became a fighting ring <span class=""bb-i"">today</span>? Why not yesterday, when he was not there? Warakuma was not really this chaotic. Capitalism was to blame, of course. The sudden industrialization and modern malls and the booming of local commerce was making struggles on people’s minds, thus creating scenarios such as that one. Those two were victims of the instant messaging and junk food culture, and the only way to get their frustration out was to fight. Damn capitalism!<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Finally!”</font> Gen exclaimed as he reached the end of the crowd, and leapt out of it victorious. Surprisingly, the crows ended where the cinema began. The two fighters should have sold tickets for their fight, for they were bound to make a fortune. However, there was a problem for Gen. He did not see the black-haired guy [Masa] who happened to be on Gen’s landing spot. Nononono. Why this kept happening?! <font color=""skyblue"">”AH!

There were so many people she wanted to talk to. Rui, her friends at school, Father, Saya...<br/><br/>Saya...<br/><br/>Leiko looked over at her bedside in an attempt to find her phone, but she was promptly thwarted by the excess of cards and flowers that dominated the space. On further inspection they appeared to be from her friends from school, wishing her well in her recovery. It was nice of them, and Leiko couldn't help but feel touched at how much they had considered her. <br/><br/>There was also a fruit basket from Noboru, which appeared a little out of character for the foul-mouthed brawler, but Leiko knew that he and the others still risked their life to save her from that place.

He was wary of all clubs, actually, but that one seemed a little out of place in a small town such as Warakuma. If it were on a big city, of course it would be there, but a book club or an Asian studies club would make more sense.<br/><br/>Oh right, present. Gen lifted his head and saw an outstretched hand and heard a you alright from the person before him. It was his near collateral damage. He seemed familiar. He was wearing casual clothes, so he would never think that they attended the same school. And that he was his senpai, though that was apparent if Gen only focused on the physical aspect. With an embarrassed laugh, he mumbled a short apology and took it with his own hand. ""<font color=""skyblue"">Sorry.</font>"" He said again, standing and dusting himself off. ""<font color=""skyblue"">I honestly didn't see you there. I was just trying to get away from the two who are fighting...</font>"" His voice lingered. He had seen him, but <span class=""bb-i"">where</span>? It was frustrating! ""<font color=""skyblue"">Are <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> all right? I'm okay, but I don't know about you.""</font> What if he was bleeding internally? The other could be suffering and Gen would just be standing there, oblivious to the situation at hand. Was he? WAS HE?! He needed to know!</div>"

She looked at Akane in surprise when her classmate put her hand on her shoulder, giving a slow nod after a moment at her words. She even looked over to Toma with momentary worry before noticing the joking tone with which the two were speaking. However, Akane seemed to have other places she needed to be - and after a quick glance to her watch, she waved goodbye. Kotori returned the gesture, the other girl's words reminding her that she'd most certainly be seeing her again as they were from the same class.<br/><br/>A momentary silence between the two followed Akane's departure until Toma commented that she was nice - a sentiment to which Kotori agreed with a nod. Before anything else could be said, a loud voice could be heard calling out. As it turned out, it was a boy - an acquaintance of sorts of Toma, judging by the way he'd called - who came running and performed some mixture of a jump-hug-tackle. Kotori blinked in surprise at the rather sudden entrance before the boy in question noticed her standing there and introduced himself as the track club captain. <font color=""green"">""Ah, I'm Kotori Shirohane from Class 2-2,""</font> she quickly responded with a bow before another voice could be heard - this time a girl's; the owner of which was dragging Arata off Toma with a tone that left little doubt that this was a regular occurence.<br/><br/>As it appeared, Toma hadn't been here by himself but rather as part of a group of friends from the track club. A small smile came across Kotori's face at the antics before her - though it turned slightly more nervous when she noticed the number of looks that were being directed towards them; even if only in curiosity. At Toma's words, Kotori looked back at him before giving a quick bow. <font color=""green"">""Ah, yes, goodbye and thank you again,""</font> she quickly said, albeit still in her rather quiet voice, as the two boys headed off talking between themselves. An unexpected apology was then spoken - much to the surprise of Kotori who quickly raised her hands to wave it off. <font color=""green"">""No, no, it's no bother, really,""</font> she said, shaking her head for emphasis, before the speaker - the same girl from before - introduced herself as an underclassman by the name of Tsuruko. Though she'd already done so just before, Kotori introduced herself again; not least out of courtesy. Seeing as she was here with her track club friends, the girl quickly gave a wave as she said her goodbye; a gesture that Kotori returned before standing before the bench and watching the figures head off into the amusement park for a moment.<br/><br/>A small sigh escaped her lips as she sat back down - of all things, she most certainly hadn't expected this to unfold.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Ferrero Mall | Monday, April 27 2015 - Afternoon</span><br/><br/>Kotori stood before the grocery store, a full shopping bag in one hand and a piece of paper on the other - a shopping list which she was going over to make sure she had everything that was needed at home. Mentally checking off the last item on the list, she gave a satisfied nod and a small smile before looking back up - and noticing a rather large crowd up ahead. For a moment, she remembered the last incident that drew such a crowd to the mall - a pair of students inexplicably pulling various poses with one thereof being rather lacking in the shirt department - before shaking her head at the thought. Perhaps there was a performer showing his talent that attracted the people or some other such thing. Either way, Kotori decided to steer clear of the large mass of people - even if, she noticed, it seemed to be starting to disperse; as if the magnet that had been drawing them together had been turned off.<br/><br/>Either way though, Kotori decided to wander through the mall after a brief glance to her watch revealed that she was in no rush - plus also, with Golden Week going on, there were bound to be some sales going on for the avid shopper, whether regular or of the window variety.</div>"

Perhaps they were looking for another fight to start up, or just amused at the comical antics that were transpiring. Whatever the reason, Masa sighed heavily as he hung his head. 'I just can't seem to get away.' Still, he'd motion with his head for the one behind him to follow, making his way to the cinema.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#8493ca"">Seen the new movie yet?

Its owner also wore a long sleeved, spring green knitted sweater with a pair of white colored wedge sandals to finish the current season's look. Since summer was not too long from now, Shizuka decided to go through her spring wardrobe more often. She might be an otaku but she dressed appropriately for the seasons <span class=""bb-s"">but unfortunately not for the occasion, the movie screening day as an example</span>.<br/><br/>The raven haired female dropped by the Shinza Shopping Square today not for her own shopping pleasure or enjoyment but to search in advance for an appropriate gift for mother's day in the next month. She walked past Game Over Arcade, unbeknownst to her, was where a Persona 4 Arena Ultimax tournament was on going. Not like the freshman ever gave a chance at playing a console game, but she was indeed aware of the existence of the aforementioned game, due to her interest of the Persona 3 series. Perhaps she would try by influence of others but not today, she focused on the windows of the shops that passed by her half covered gaze.<br/><br/>The clacking of the sandals ceased abruptly when a certain view entered her sight. <span class=""bb-i"">A view of beautiful variety of flowers.</span> Head tilted upward to see the name of the place to mentally take note of. Shirohane Flowershop. Got it. Wanting to take a closer look at the flowers and its costs, Shizuka entered the shop with a curious expression upon her face. While it wasn't a rare sight to see flowers around, she appreciated the beauty and the fragrance they each carried, unique to their own. Her appreciation didn't change the fact that she absolutely had no idea how plant care worked or which flower type was appropriate for different occasions. Perhaps joining the agriculture club would help her in such field.<br/><br/>The student decided that it was wise to ask the person in charge of the shop to advice her on this matter, so her bangs covered eyes parted from the flowers to approach the counter and voiced out her concern upon reaching it. <font color=""violet"">""Um, pardon me? Would you happen to know which flower type would be appropriate as a mother's day gift? I-I'm afraid I have no knowledge of flower meanings, you see.""</font></div>"

Taking a step back only to then make another small turn or move some a little forward or backward, it would take a while before she was finally satisfied - much to the bemusement of her mother who had been watching the whole time from behind the counter. A bemusement which only grew when Kotori finally realised that she'd been seen fussing over such tiny details for nearly five minutes - even if it was a rather regular occurence, she still felt a little embarassed about it.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I'll... take care of the new ones in the back,""</font> Kotori said, pointing to the door that lead to the back of the shop where most of the flowers were kept and looked after and where her mother, and occasionally she too, took up their Ikebana.

""Oh, don't worry, it'll be fine. And quicker too, judging by them,"" Tsubame said with a still amused tone. Kotori raised as hand as if to protest - but then lowered it again, given that she really couldn't say anything against it. <font color=""green"">""Geez...""</font> she quietly sighed as she stood behind the counter - her least favourite part when it came to helping around the shop and one her mother seemed all too keen on making her do, judging by the chuckle she could hear behind her.<br/><br/>At least she could hope that her mother would be back to take over again before any customers showed up - though she was used to handling them, she still felt rather stiff and unsure about it; particularly when compared to the way her mother. An inaudible sigh escaped her lips - when a familiar sound interrupted her thoughts as the door was pushed open and someone entered the shop. Immediately straightening herself Kotori looked up to see who it was - only to be greeted with an unfamiliar face, at least what could be seen thereof underneath the long bangs. The girl looked to be of high school age, probably not much more than a year apart from herself, Kotori guessed, and seemed quite enarmored with the various flowers on display - she couldn't help but feel a little bit of pride when she passed some of the flowers she'd placed herself.<br/><br/>The small smile at the sight quickly turned nervous when the girl in question then stepped closer - and even more so when she addressed Kotori, inquiring about flowers suitable for Mother's Day. <font color=""green"">""A-ah, yes,""</font> Kotori quickly said, trying to keep her mother's tips in mind - a cheerful smile could go a long way - as she spoke. <font color=""green"">""Carnations are the traditional flowers for Mother's Day. Red or pink in particular, to show love or admiration,""</font> she explained with a little more confidence, if not volume, as ever when she came to talk about flowers. <font color=""green"">""If you'd like, I could show you some, Miss...?""</font> she then said - with a lot less confidence and sounding a lot more stiff. Her mother had told her it was a great way to get customers to talk, but Kotori couldn't help but feel it sounded rather awkward when she said it; particularly seeing as the customer in question was of approximately the same age as herself.</div>"

Not that she would have minded taking her time to see each and every one, she had the time and it was pleasant to be surrounded by them.<br/><br/>Before following behind her to whereever the carnations were displayed at, Shizuka bowed her head lightly while introducing herself. <font color=""violet"">""Oh, my name is Otonashi, Shizuka. Pleased to be acquainted with you! And you are?""</font> As her hazel eyes wandered about, taking a look around at the vibrant colors the petals of the flowers had, she couldn't help but wonder something. While the other raven haired girl lead her to the carnations, Shizuka inquired about her curious thought. <font color=""violet"">""Hm... If you wouldn't mind me asking, do you happen to grow these flowers by yourselves or does someone provide them for you?""</font></div>"

Elena had managed to convince the doctor to let their mother go to the beach along with them. They had a quiet and fun time. Alexei also displayed his open grill skills to his mother who was quiet amazed by the cook Alexei was turning into. Elena had kept her updated with her lunch variety that he cooked for her daily but to see it with her own eyes nearly brought her to tears.<br/><br/>There was also the fact that each day, she was greeted with a wonderful Ikebana bouquet which set her mind in the right direction. She was still depressed and sad at their state but hope was finally budding inside her watching her two children grow up. Each a miracle considering their formative years. <br/><br/>The concern and worry she had for Alexei was allayed somewhat by the uttermost sincerity and devotion that shone in his eyes. She was confident that even without her being there to guide and shape his personality, he'd be the ideal husband. She chuckled a bit to herself at the thought and wondered if the hospital had made her go senile. Nevertheless, she was also glad to see how Elena was blossoming. She couldn't call herself a mother to the young one, Alexei had borne that burden alone. He had been her Father, Mother and brother.<br/><br/>Shaking her mind off such thoughts she just enjoyed the view ad the gentle breeze that blew, the fact that her children cherished and loved her was deeply moving. The day had been fun and the Dragunovs had a nice time in each others company. The girls also got to peek into Alexei's philosophical side on few instances.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Today, was payday. With his salary in hand and the packet he received from Miyamoto-san for his monthly expenses. Alexei went to the shopping square after settling the hospital expenses. Walking like an arrow, straight to the Shirohane Flowerstore he walked in as the bell chimed at the door.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Good morning Kotori-san. How are you?""</span> he asked the raved haired schoolmate. She seemed to be in the middle of showing another girl some flowers, Alexei ruffled his hair apologetically<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Sorry to intrude. I'll go meet Shirohane-dono.""</span> he bowed a bit before going to the back of the shop, knocking on the door to the backroom.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Shirohane-dono! it's me Alexei.""</span> he said. Standing at the edge and speaking in a higher tone than his regular rumble, because his voice was a deep baritone, he rarely raised his voice. But on occasions he did, it seemed like small thunderclaps.<br/><br/></div>"

Kotori gave a bow in response before speaking to answer in turn: <font color=""green"">""I'm Kotori Shirohane, daughter of Tsubame Shirohane, the owner of this shop. Pleased to meet you too, Otonashi-san,""</font> Kotori thought on the name for a moment - had she heard it somewhere before, at school or elsewhere perhaps? If she did, it didn't immediately come to mind so that she instead put that aside for the moment and instead focused on the request by the other girl. Holding one hand out in the direction to go, together with a <font color=""green"">""this way, please,""</font> Kotori then lead Shizuka over to a set of shelves atop which a variety of carnations were found; passing by other displays full of tulips, roses and bouquets of multiple flowers while they did.<br/><br/>Barely getting two steps, though, a small chime was heard as the door was opened for the second time in as many minutes. Looking toward the entering person, Kotori recognised the rather tall figure quite quickly given his stature - Alexei Dragunov, a Third Year from Warakuma High who had placed an order for regular deliveries of Ikebana bouquets. As he greeted her, Kotori quickly glanced between him and the girl behind herself; unsure as to whom to attend to first - but before she had to come to a decision, Alexei seemed to notice the predicament and excused himself. At that, Kotori gave a bow, both grateful and in greeting, before speaking. <font color=""green"">""Welcome, Dragunov-senpai. Mother is currently in the backroom, through that door,""</font> she said, pointing in the direction mentioned before getting back to the girl at hand.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""My apologies, Otonashi-san,""</font> she said with an apologetic bow before answering the question that was asked as they reached the carnations - some potted, some placed in small display vases, some single flowers and others in bunches and in various colours, ranging from the reds and pinks she'd mentioned before to whites, yellows, greens and some in between. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, a bit of both,""</font> she said, placing a single finger of one hand to her lips as she thought for a moment. <font color=""green"">""Some of the more common flowers are grown in our garden, but others have to be delivered,""</font> Kotori said, a little vaguely - mostly because she wasn't sure how many details the girl really wanted to know. Either way though, she let Shizuka look over the variously coloured carnations for a few moments before asking: <font color=""green"">""Do you see any that you'd like?""</font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Tsubame Shirohane - Shinza Shopping Square: Shirohane Flowershop | Wednesday, April 29 2015</span><br/><br/>With a smile that was hard to distinguish from a grin, Tsubame was humming to herself as she busied herself with getting the latest delivery presentable - the source of her mirth still being her daughter. It was both amusing to watch the way she tried her hardest not to appear nervous around customers and a point of pride - especially compared to how she'd been the first few times at the counter; stammering in whispers and looking anywhere but the customer's faces; even if they were some of the regulars that came by every now and then and were already well acquainted. Shaking her head at the silliness of it all, Tsubame's thoughts were interrupted by a knock and a voice from the door. Brushing the worst of the dirt off her gardening gloves before removing them, Tsubame placed them on one of the working tables where a number of various flowers lay - some still wrapped in cellophane, others bound together to mark them as bouquets-to-be and others yet just laying by themselves; their purpose yet undecided.<br/><br/>As she reached the door, the speaker turned out to be the young man who went to her daughter's school - he had a rather distinct voice and appearance, making such a conclusion quite an easy one. Either way though, a smile came to Tsubme's face at his sight as she remembered the nature of his request: a bouquet each for both his mother and sister. <font color=""ivory"">""Ah, welcome, Dragunov-kun,""</font> she greeted the young and tall man with a small bow. <font color=""ivory"">""I hope the flowers have been to your and your family's liking?""</font> she continued with a cheerful smile that matched her tone - and standing in quite the contrast to her far more timid daughter.</div>"

The resemblance between Hitomi and Mina-Michan just wasn’t there. <font color=""skyblue"">”It’s all in your head. Not offence, but there’s no way anyone can think that a Warakuma girl is as cute as Mina-Michan.”</font><br/><br/>	Rento scoffed. <font color=""salmon"">”A <span class=""bb-i"">’Warakuma’</span> girl? Whaddya mean by that, city boy?”</font> He leafed through the magazine again despite his earlier confession that he’d already read it three times over. Sato scooted up to the edge of Rento’s bed, stretching his legs out onto the floor.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”You need to live in Tokyo for a month to get that the girls from a place like that have a much higher average beauty level than a backwater like Warakuma.”</font> The slender male rose and made his way over to the closest stack of magazines. He shuffled through the periodicals until he found an issue with a catch-line that interested him. Though, as he tried to slide it out, he toppled the whole tower, scattering the organized papers about in a mess. As Sato scrambled to restack all the magazines, a woman’s voice called from downstairs.<br/><br/> <font color=""silver"">”Rento! That Moriyami girl’s here for you!”</font><br/><br/>	Rento bolted over to the door, shoved it open, and leaned out to yell back. <font color=""salmon"">”Tell her we’ll be right down, Mum!”</font> The boys got whatever they needed together before heading out to meet Mika in the foyer, dodging Rento’s snotty younger siblings as they flew down the hall and stairs. Though, as the two passed through the house, Sato couldn’t help but slow down when he saw the piano positioned by the corner. Considering their house wasn’t the biggest around, and that they were practically connected to their restaurant, he was a little surprised about it being there. The teen flipped open the cover to the keys before being interrupted by Rento’s sister tugging at his sleeve, begging him to come play with them. Sato looked around helplessly for Rento’s mother to take the child away from him.<br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">”You interested in it? It’s just been gathering dust for years so we wouldn’t mind pawning it off to ya.”</font> Rento rested his hand on Sato’s shoulder as he observed the old piano with a lukewarm smile. Mika gave a greeting to Sato, who returned it.<br/><br/>	Sato slipped Rento’s arm off of him before replying. <font color=""skyblue"">”Oh, no, I had no intention. It’s just a little odd seeing it in a household like this.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""silver"">”We’re not getting rid of it just yet, Rento.”</font> Rento’s mother interjected, sending the girl bothering Sato off to go back to playing with her brothers. <font color=""silver"">”Yamazaki’s wife used to always play this old thing, but after her passing, he couldn’t bear looking at it any longer, so they gave it to us to take care of. My husband and Rento have been trying to sell it for a long while now but I just can’t bear to part with it quite yet. It’s like a part of her, to me.”</font> Sato ran his fingers over a few of the keys, imagining a phantom woman playing next to him and the quiet sound of the notes. He’d no idea Hitomi’s mother had passed away. Though, it had been a long time ago apparently, so it makes sense that she’d not bear an obvious burden from it. <br/><br/> <font color=""palegreen"">”Say, Sato, didn’t you say you used to play the piano when you were younger? You could play us a song while we wait for Hitomi to get here.”</font> Mika set her bag down next to the piano bench and sat down on the very edge of it. <font color=""palegreen"">”She might be a while.”</font><br/><br/>	Sato took a seat next to Mika, twisting to turn back to the others. <font color=""skyblue"">”I… could try. I haven’t played in some time though, so don’t expect anything spectacular.”</font> It took him a moment to realise he didn’t remember any of the songs he’d used to played. There was a stack of sheet music resting on top of the piano, so he grabbed the first one from the top of the pile. <font color=""skyblue"">”Thank God I was good at sight-reading”</font><br/><br/>	After taking a deep breath, <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh5cDFmMSTw"" rel=""nofollow"">Sato began to play the notes he read.</a> He was at first painfully sloppy, though, as he went through the song, the muscle memory flushed back and he was soon playing without much mistake. The trail of notes leading Sato’s eyes across the sheet soon ended, and the room was filled with the absence of sound, a rarity for the Nakai household. The children that had gathered behind him clapped, the others complimenting his playing as well, and the teen couldn’t help but blush a little. He hadn’t performed for anyone in so long that the feeling was almost uncomfortable. <br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">”Hehe, you’re pretty good, city boy, even if you have no swing.”</font> <br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Thank you,”</font> He merely uttered.<br/><br/>	It was only after it was over did the front door open with a shutter. Sato whipped around to see Hitomi entering with an almost astonished look. <font color=""yellow"">”I-I’m sorry for coming in without asking. It’s just been so long since I heard that piano. It’s out of tune, so you’ll have to play it again after we adjust it.”</font> Sato waved away the idea with an embarrassed smile while the other two teens walked over to the door, slipping into their shoes as they greeted Hitomi. He remained seated until the children ran off and Rento’s mother started cleaning up the mess of sheets about the piano.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Thank you for letting me play, Mrs. Nakai. It was an honor.”</font> Sato gave a weak bow to the greying woman. <br/><br/>	She stifled a very light laugh, easing the male’s tension. <font color=""silver"">”It was very nostalgic to hear that old tune. You play almost exactly like her, skill level and all, haha. I’m sure Mrs. Yamazaki wouldn’t want this piano to rot in this corner. …It’s almost like you brought a little bit of her back today...”</font> Rento called out to him from outside, urging Sato to catch up or they’d leave him behind. Sato turned back to the woman as he rose from the bench with an apologetic look painted on his features. <font color=""silver"">”Ah, don’t let this old woman’s ramblings keep you! Go have fun with your friends, and tell Rento not to get into any trouble! He’s almost as much trouble around here as the young ones…”</font>.<br/><br/>	Sato nodded slightly. <font color=""skyblue"">”Thanks for having me. Take care.”</font> …He hadn’t noticed it at first, but the voices of his friends actually were getting more distant, so he rushed into his shoes, and, with a bound, dashed after his friends. They were already over a hill, and when they saw him catching up, they started to run too.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPewWjkkJDQ"" rel=""nofollow"">Murame Mountain</a></div>	Hiking was not his forte. And as the four walked up the inclined dirt path up the small mountain, Sato couldn’t help but be out of breath. Mika seemed to be feeling the same as they both were playing catch up with the other two teens, Sato and Mika passively supporting each other on the particularly steep parts of the trail. It wasn’t until he ran into some kind of wall did Sato look up from the ground and stop walking. Well, not a wall. Rento’s back.<br/><br/> <font color=""palegreen"">”Look at that,”</font> Mika whispered. Sato stepped around the boy in front of him and gazed out over the cliff they stopped at. The rest point overlooked the entire town they had taken a train to, the tracks leading in and out of it, the whole area really. The male gave out a quiet gasp in response to the sights. The hike was worth it just to see it.<br/><br/>	They made their way over to the bench fixed a little ways away from the cliff’s edge, flopping down and catching their breaths. The wind blew freely once they cleared the trees covering the mountain’s slope. <font color=""yellow"">”So you two have really never been up here before?”</font> Hitomi asked before taking a long swig from the water bottle Rento passed her. Sato and Mika nodded, both deciding to save the air at the moment.<br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">”A shame you haven’t ‘till now. Heard they were closing this place off soon.”</font> Rento snatched the bottle back from Hitomi, wiped it off with his shirt, and chugged down half of it. Sato merely watched the clouds go by, covering and uncovering the sun as they went. It was more tranquil than he’d imagined it would be. <br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">”Who’s that?”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Huh?”</font> Sato followed where the others’  were looking and spotted a figure emerging from the underbrush that lined the woods’ edge. A girl. A familiar one. Her light brown hair fell down to her shoulders, her bangs sticking to her forehead a bit with sweat. <span class=""bb-i"">Why was she so familiar?</span> She set down her backpack, oblivious to the pack of students staring at her, and took out a camera as another girl emerged from the woods. At that point Sato snapped back to looking out at the distance.<br/><br/>	Rento scratched the back of his head. <font color=""salmon"">”I’ve never seen other people here before. <sub>they’re pretty cute though hehe</sub>”</font> Sato fidgeted in his seat as he tried to remembered where he knew her from. It was weird, the feeling of recognizing that face but not being able to recall any kind of memory attached to it. It was as he contemplated it Rento jabbed him in the side, motioning back towards the girls. <font color=""salmon"">”She’s coming towards you, man…”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""orange"">”Excuse me,”</font> A voice said. Sato turned in his seat to look at who spoke. <font color=""orange"">”Are you Hashimoto Sato?”</font> He was surprised that this girl knew his name, though he felt it only confirmed the fact that he should know who this woman was.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”Ah, yes I am. I’m very sorry, but I can’t seem to remember who you are…”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""orange"">”I’m not surprised. I was a classmate of yours back in junior high, and I only recognized you because you haven’t changed much since then, haha…”</font><br/><br/>	Mika interposed, <font color=""palegreen"">”I hate to interrupt, but aren’t you Chiba Naomi, from Class 3-2? I believe I’ve seen you in class before.”</font> The girl looked a little confused for a bit before flashing with recognition.<br/><br/> <font color=""orange"">”You’re Moriyama, right? You always answer the teachers perfectly when they call on you…”</font> Chiba supplied a warm smile to accompany her compliment before returning to Sato. <font color=""orange"">”I transferred here a couple month ago, and I found it hard to adjust, so I started hiking every weekend… It’s weird, right? That a city girl would find solace in the countryside?”</font><br/><br/>	Rento was right. She was right. She was beautiful. Or at least as the sun beamed down on them, casting a shadow over the cliff, the rays hitting her back and carving her figure into the blue sky, she was. And he was blushing as he stared at her face. In a fluster, Sato jumped up from the bench, pulling Rento with him and by extension causing the other two to rise as well. <font color=""skyblue"">”I hate to part as soon as we met, but we need to catch our train shortly or we’ll be wasting the rest of our day at the station. Until we meet again,”</font> And Sato was gone, rushing down the hill. Why was he in such a panic over this girl he barely knew? Well… at least he wasn’t wrong about the train thing. Looking at his watch, they had to practically fall down the hill to make the next train on time.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Back at the train station, Sato, Mika, and Hitomi waited nervously for Rento to catch up. What had happened to him, they were unaware, but it was rather concerning considered that Rento was the one with the tickets back. It got uncomfortably close to the departure time when they spotted Rento barreling towards them. They boarded the train, finding seats with ease, and waited for the short trip back to Warakuma to begin. Sato shifted a little closer to the wall of the train car when Rento plopped down next to him, still panting for air. <font color=""salmon"">”Here city boy,”</font> He handed Sato a folded piece of note paper. <font color=""salmon"">”I got her info for you. She said she wanted to keep in touch with you, since you two are in the same boat and all. Whatever she meant by that.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”That’s a little weird that she wanted to give me her number...”</font> Sato stared at the slip of paper for a while as Rento immediately switched back into conversing with the girls. His fingers held onto the paper for a long moment first before opening it, just to check if it was real. Sure enough, there was an email. The teen shoved the paper into his pocket before he could think about that sun-kissed girl again. The ride home felt a little boring as he watched the country go by from behind the window. Soon enough they were back at the Warakuma station, and the group parted, Rento and Hitomi heading back to the Nakai residence, Mika going to check out the stores one more time despite her personal bankruptcy. There wasn’t anything else he wanted to do for the rest of the day, and the sun was already falling, so Sato simply went back home.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLESWPUnVss"" rel=""nofollow"">Hashimoto Residence</a></div>	As he laid on his bed, thinking about nothing, one of the last things Sato expected was his phone giving out a chime to alert him of a text message. The boy lazily rolled over and off his bed to grab his phone from the nearby desk. A text from Rento. Sato briefly considered not answering and pretending like he didn’t just get out of bed to check, but he figured it was some type of plans Rento wanted to make and it would be best to make sure that he wasn’t going to wake him up in the early morning to check.<br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">hey city boy didja hear? idol group is playing at ferroro. hitomi and mika are both busy the rest of the week with family and im ALREADY BORED come check out the girls with me please</font><br/><br/>	Thinking back on it, Sato recalled reading about the performance in that one magazine they were discussing earlier. He couldn’t remember who was performing but, along with the various advertisements in town, the event stuck out in his head. His mother was working the whole week and any of his other relatives were on the other side of the country and/or out of touch. There wasn’t anything else for him to do for Golden Week so hanging out with whoever was available seemed to be the only good option. And so he texted back.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">what’s you deal with idols? But yeah sure, I’ll go w/ you. Meet me at the foodcourt Friday whenever I guess (´ω｀ )</font><br/><br/>	Sato tossed his phone back onto the desk before flopping back down on his bed. It was already getting late, and all he’d accomplished after coming home was having dinner and lying down on his bed, trying to muster energy to go do something. There wasn’t anything preventing him from just sleeping though, so the teen decided to give up trying to be productive in any way and simply closed his eyes, waiting for the sweet embrace of unconsciousness to take him away to dreamland.</div>"

Do keep up your hard work in the maintenance of the shop, the flowers you keep and how they're arranged are quite lovely.""</font> A light smile flashed across her half hidden face, but her voice was clear enough to show that her compliment was sincere. As they walked, the colorful scenery of the flowers attracted Shizuka to the point that she was curious enough to gently touch the petals with her finger. When a new customer entered and Kotori's attention was turned to whoever it was, a little accident occurred. With how her eyes covered her vision, the raven haired girl didn't realize she pointed her finger towards the roses, known for their sharp thorns and-- <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">OW</span></span>. Little amount of crimson droplets oozed out. Panicking slightly with embarrassment, Shizuka pulled out a handkerchief from her purse and covered the evidence.<br/><br/>Being preoccupied with the bleeding finger, Shizuka missed the person who had newly entered the shop by the time she turned her face toward the door. While she may not have seen who it was, the voice was quite familiar, an image of a particular person was forming in her mind until Kotori confirmed her speculation by mentioning his name. <span class=""bb-i"">Dragunov</span>. Since it was rare for the girl to hear a foreigner speak Japanese in such a proper manner, it was no surprise for her to instantly assume such person would be either of the Dragunov siblings. Realizing that the shop owner's daughter was familiar with the man, her lips parted to inquire, <font color=""violet"">""Ah! You're acquainted with Dragunov-san as well, Shirohane-san? But I suppose it's no surprise with how small Warakuma is.""</font><br/><br/>Upon given an apology and a bow to match for the slight, not exactly interruption, Shizuka waved her <span class=""bb-s"">non-bleeding</span> hand in a gesture to show that she was not offended in any way. <font color=""violet"">""I-It's no problem, Shirohane-san.""</font> Just as they arrived at the shelves where the carnations were located, her eyes sparkled at the lovely assortments of colors for the flower. Just a few moments were all she needed to decide on what she wanted for her gift to be. Before voicing out her decision, Kotori replied to her previous inquiry. <font color=""violet"">""I see, it must take some careful attention to grow these to how beautiful they are now, doesn't it? Common or not, such fact wouldn't change. As to which one piqued my interest, I find these pink and white combination to my liking!

Still, she had to suppress the small smile that was forming at the compliment; instead merely nodding to confirm the other girl's words. After the brief exchange of words with Alexei, Shizuka revealed that she too knew him. This wasn't all that surprising - given both his build and the fact that he was a foreigner, he was bound to attract attention one way or another. As such, Kotori simply nodded again in response to Shizuka's words about him - the little mishap of the other girl going unnoticed with her attention having been drawn astray.<br/><br/>As Shizuka noted the beauty of the flowers, a small smile came to Kotori's lips as she nodded. <font color=""green"">""Yes, it does. But it's nice to watch something grow from a small seed to a beautiful flower in itself,""</font> she agreed - her tone of voice showing that she really did think being able to follow a flower's growth to be a reward in and of itself. As Shizuka then stated her choice of flowers, Kotori's eyes followed Shizuka's pointing from behind her glasses before blinking briefly as she saw them - not because the particular set of flowers had been one she'd laid out earlier that day, but rather the meaning behind the carnations: pink stood for admiration for one's mother when gifted on the occasion - whilst one of the meanings of the white flower was honouring a late mother. Luckily though, there were more meanings that a flower could have - and in combination with one another, were more indicative of genuine declaration of love for one's mother. Furthermore, the way Shizuka spoke didn't sound like she was looking for such a gift - and Kotori wasn't exactly eager to ask. As such, Kotori shook the thought off and instead put on a smile as Shizuka asked whether a reservation was possible.<br/><br/>At least, it was supposed to be a smile - as always when she actually tried, it was more of a wry small half-smile rather than a beaming one she'd envision. Nonetheless, Kotori nodded before speaking. <font color=""green"">""Of course,""</font> she said as she reached into one of the two small pockets of the green aprons with the white flower logo of the shop upon it and produced a notepad and pencil. <font color=""green"">""One pink-and-white bouquet of carnations on Mother's Day,""</font> she mumbled as she noted it down before looking back up. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, would that be to be picked up or to be delivered?""</font> she asked, pencil and note still in hand; feeling a little silly for not having asked that before writing - particularly when she noticed her mother's gaze briefly on her, even if her attention was focused on matters with the the other Warakuma High School student.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Tsubame Shirohane - Shinza Shopping Square: Shirohane Flowershop | Wednesday, April 29 2015</span><br/><br/>As the young man spoke his praise, Tsubame chuckled lightly - not in mocking, but rather at the sheer gap between the gruff appearance of the speaker and his words. A wide smile was upon her lips knowing that the flowers were appreciated so much. <font color=""ivory"">""My, it's a pleasure to hear that,""</font> Tsubame said in reply before Alexei mentioned the reason for his visit - the bill. A thoughtful expression crossed her face with an <font color=""ivory"">""ah""</font> as he spoke. Indeed they hadn't settled the matter yet - but, much like he'd promised, he'd shown up to make up for that. When he apologised for possibly not having enough, Tsubame shook her head with a brief smile. <font color=""ivory"">""Oh, I don't think that should be a problem,""</font> she said as she quickly patted her hands off on a clean bit of her apron - her daughter had already asked if they could perhaps help out with a lower price after hearing his story; something that Tsubame had followed suit quickly after.<br/><br/>As she pointed toward the counter at the front of the shop - where most of the running tabs were kept for easy access - to show that they'd be heading over there, Alexei then asked if he could be of assistance. Placing a finger to her lips as she walked, Tsubame thought on the offer - the young man had said much the same last time he'd been here, but unfortunately, there weren't any tasks that would require his help. As such, she shook her head with a thankful smile. <font color=""ivory"">""I think we've got everything covered quite nicely. But thank you for asking,""</font> she said as they reached the counter. Tsubame glanced over to see Kotori noting something down - an order from the girl, most likely - before she thumbed through some thin folders and then pulled one out. <font color=""ivory"">""Let's see...""</font> Tsubame said, mostly to herself as she looked over the document in search of one particular entry.<br/><br/><font color=""ivory"">""Ah, here we go.""</font> The nod accompanying her words made it apparent that she'd found what she'd been looking for as she pulled a small slip of paper out and then showed it to the Dragunov boy. On it was the bill - which, though it didn't show such a thing anywhere in writing, had been priced a decent bit lower; making it quite affordable for an average high schooler's part time wage. <font color=""ivory"">""I hope it isn't asking too much,""</font> she added with a smile - whilst it wasn't really normal procedure, it was rare enough that her daughter asked for anything that she was only to happy to oblige; even more so knowing the story herself.</div>"

Looking over his shoulder, Toma saw Yoshida entering through the back door, rubbing his tired eyes. When his eyes met the boy's, an apologetic expression flashed across his face as he stepped closer.<br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""I can't believe I fell asleep like that, I'm sorry,""</font> he said before pausing and glancing around. <font color=""#00746b"">""Did... you look after the store while I was out?""</font><br/><br/>Toma shrugged. <font color=""#f26522"">""Sure.

Anyways, it wasn't any trouble. I stayed because I wanted to. You were only napping for a couple hours, and there weren't too many people to serve.""</font><br/><br/>Yoshida took a few moments to reply, giving something of a defeated sigh. <font color=""#00746b"">""Okay. Thank you, Toma-kun.

I've got more money than I'll ever be able to use in the time I have left. You deserve it anyway; you're a good kid, from what I've seen.""</font><br/><br/>Toma raised his eyebrows again, though this time it was more because he didn't know how else to react to those words. After a moment, he smiled and replied. <font color=""#f26522"">""If you insist, I won't turn down extra pay, I guess.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Turning down my generosity was never an option. Now get out of here and go do whatever it is you kids do these days.""</font><br/><br/>That got another small laugh from the boy. <font color=""#f26522"">""Sure thing.""</font><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">April 29th, Morning | Ferrero Mall</span><br/><br/>Toma strolled around, sipping on his canned coffee, enjoying the spring breeze. Spring was great. And fall, for that matter. Both seasons weren't too warm, nor too cold. The perfect weather for track jackets, and God knew how much he loved his wearing his track jacket.<br/><br/>Over the past couple days, he had seriously been considering visiting Leiko in the hospital, to ask about her kidnapping and see if she'd tell him anything. He decided against it though, since he had only spoken with her once. Not to mention he had the feeling she wouldn't take too kindly to him barging into her hospital room and demanding answers about a traumatic experience mere days after it had happened. She was probably sick of being questioned, and he had no real right to add onto that, despite how badly he wanted to know. He resolved to talk to her at a later time.<br/><br/>And that was essentially the entire purpose of his walk. Along with simply killing time, he kept an eye out for those who had gone missing and turned back up, wanting to stop and talk to <span class=""bb-i"">any</span> of them. Sure, he could wait until school started again -- that would be a much more reliable way to locate one of them -- but that was several days away, and he didn't feel like waiting that long. And it wasn't like he had anything better to do.<br/><br/>As he finished his drink, he noticed a small sporting goods store. Glancing over, he perked up upon spotting a wall of soccer equipment through the window. Feeling excitement and an irresistible urge welling up inside him, he entered the store and made his way to the soccer section. He was brought back years into the past, remembering all the times he had spent in shops like these, admiring the equipment -- especially the balls and shoes. He had been able to spend hours in such a place, taking everything in several times. That had stopped several months before Taiki had passed away, as Toma had decided to quit competitive soccer to focus on school. It was a decision he'd always sort of regretted since, but still convinced himself it had been the right one -- school, after all, was more important for his future than sports, no matter how much he had dreamed of making it to the big leagues when he was a kid. He missed playing, that much was certain.<br/><br/>Stepping towards and picking up a fancy-looking pair of cleats, he glanced at the price tag and was quickly reminded how expensive these things could get. Smiling to himself, he put them back, before grabbing a ball that looked to be of decent quality. It wasn't the cheapest one there, but it's price wasn't exorbitant either. Besides, he didn't want to skimp on this purchase, and he had the money at the moment.<br/><br/>It had been a long time since he had felt so satisfied while buying an item.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Late Morning | River Bank</span><br/><br/>It didn't take long for the boy to find himself an out-of-the-way, flat spot of grass right beside the river that ran through the town. The place was plenty peaceful, and even helped relax the recently constantly frayed Toma.<br/><br/>He soon tossed his jacket off, leaving it at the base of a nearby tree, and began kicking the ball around, attempting tricks he hadn't tried in a long time. A few of them took several tries to get right, but he was quickly able to consistently do everything he had been able to do before, much to his happiness. Soon enough, he found himself playing Keep Ups, and seeing how long he could keep the ball in the air without letting it hit the ground, using any part of his body other than his arms and hands.<br/><br/>How many hours had he spent in his life doing this exact thing? Toma wasn't sure, but he wouldn't be surprised if it was in the hundreds. He didn't even know what his record was -- he only knew that it was pretty good. <br/><br/>The game had always been sort of therapeutic for the boy, and it was especially so in this moment. It had been too long. His first attempt of the day had ended at a mere 11 touches, but each subsequent try brought that score up exponentially, until he stopped bothering with counting all together, never dropping it unless he meant to, to take a break or run around a little and try some dekes and tricks.<br/><br/>This was just about the perfect activity for him: it required enough concentration to keep his mind from drifting too far, but not enough to tire him out. And despite how boring it likely seemed to any outsiders, Toma easily lost himself in the game, allowing the time he so desperately wanted to kill to fly by.<br/></div>"

Grinning to herself, she sneakily stood up from her position and started to trifle around her bag, searching around for something...After poking around a few times, searching the various pockets, Ayano managed to produce a portable video game console from within! It was the latest model to boot! Somewhere in the distance, a fanfare of music could be heard...Or maybe that was all in her head. With a piece of technology in her hands after a long time she booted up a game that she had brought along with her and began to merrily tap the buttons away. Thinking to herself this might not have been the best of idea's but shrugging to herself nonetheless, after all Chiaki will be none the wiser.<br/><br/>Her eyes not even straying to the console's screen for even a second, she stealthily moved back to her futon and returned to her original position; facing away from Chiaki.

Shizuka stopped on her track towards the vending machine as she faced the water fountain, her hands clenching onto her baby blue chiffon dress. Was it worth trying? Will it actually work? ... Will she gain the courage to admit her secret? Seeing as there was no harm in throwing a mere 100 yen coin into the fountain, she faced back from the water spouting landmark (the method as she had seen in her mangas). With all her might, she tossed the coin backward into the fountain! .... or so she thought. Few seconds had passed but... no <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Plop</span></span>?

Without waiting for a reply, the man turned as he departed.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">Well that was fucking annoying,</font>"" Masa shook his head as he rolled his shoulders, trying to shrug off the events that just transpired. His mind would begin focusing on his task at hand, but a subtle discomfort slowly arose. Was it embarrassment, fear, or anger? Masa wasn't sure himself, but that didn't stop him from making his way to the supply closet.</div>"

After a few moments of blinking and staring at the wall directly next to him, he pushed himself up off his desk. While doing so, he accidentally slightly pushed his mouse, turning the monitor on of his sleeping computer, displaying a post-match screen of the game he had been playing when he had passed out. <br/><br/>Rubbing his eyes, he grimaced at the poor score that was displayed next to his screen name. He exited out of the game, and checked the time as he shut down the computer -- from that, he guess he had gotten almost six hours of sleep. Much better than the usual, though that <span class=""bb-i"">might</span> have had something to do with the fact that he hadn't slept at all the night before.<br/><br/>As he got ready for the day, roaming the house to eat and clean himself up, he noted once again how quiet his house was. His father was in his workroom, the door closed and not a sound to be heard through it, and his mother was still in bed -- not sleeping, as he had found out a while ago, but just gathering the strength to get out of bed and face another day.<br/><br/>There were three living and breathing people in the building, but the air was nearly always dead. A cloud hung over Toma as he made himself toast, wondering how he should spend the day. The idol group in town came to mind, but the thought stirred absolutely nothing inside him. He didn't have any desire to go see them -- in fact, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that there was nothing he desired to do. Except for maybe kicking his soccer ball around some more, but he had literally spent his entire last two days doing that. <br/><br/>So then there wasn't much choice. He'd go to the concert and hopefully find something to do.<br/><br/>His toast popped up, burnt. He gave it the stink eye for a moment, cursing himself for not paying more attention, before deciding that he didn't really care. He forced the food down and made his way out.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Toma walked on, hands in his jacket pockets, eyes scanning his surroundings. There really had been no point to even leaving the house today, and if he absolutely <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to leave the cold quiet, he should've brought the soccer ball. Sure, it wasn't an exciting way to spend Golden Week, but it's the only thing he even sort of felt like doing.<br/><br/>As he let out a quiet sigh, he spotted a short male. Blinking with recognition, he instantly lit up. That was Noboru.<br/><br/>Of <span class=""bb-i"">course</span> Toma had something to do -- exactly what he had been trying to do for the past couple weeks: find out more about the kidnappings. Starting with one of the kidnappees was about as good a place as any, if a little insensitive. Noboru seemed like he wouldn't be upset by an inquiry about his disappearance, or at least not as much as Leiko, who had also had a friend injured in her incident. <br/><br/>Feeling a spark of excitement, Toma sped up his walking pace to get to the other boy, silently clearing his underused voice.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Hey, you're Yamamoto Noboru-san, right?""</font> he asked, gently tapping the seemingly preoccupied boy's shoulder and giving a slight bow. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm Tanaka Toma, a friend of Aiko's.

Whom <br/>have I the honour to address?”</span></div><br/><br/> <font color=""salmon"">”<span class=""bb-i"">Sato!</span>”</font> The teen looked up from his book, meeting the eyes of his fellow student. <font color=""salmon"">”How can ya even read in a place like this? And with those girls on the stage?”</font> Rento’s eyes were locked on to the stage, only flicking a glance over in Sato’s direction as he spoke. The two males were positioned at the back wall, much to Rento’s frustration. They could hear the music plenty clearly but the waves of people and the obvious distance obscured their view of the actual stage. Sato sat cross-legged, focused on the book he was reading, occasionally stopping to peck at the salad balanced on his lap.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”I’m not really that into this stuff actually,”</font> Sato replied, looking up from the words on the page momentarily. He’d thought it’d be something to do but watching these cutesy girls dance around and sing a type of music he didn’t even really like wasn’t doing it for him. He’d bought a few books as he was walking to the food court, being unable to resist a good deal on his favorite genre. <font color=""skyblue"">”There wasn’t much else going on for me this week, so I thought I’d keep you company instead of reading by my lonesome. Though, I can’t say it’s a very pleasant audial experience.”</font><br/><br/>	Rento leaned back into the wall, a bit of a grimace on his face. <font color=""salmon"">”Man, I can’t enjoy this if you’re not into it too. Way to kill a guy’s mood.”</font>  Sato frowned. Rento probably would’ve found someone else to go with him had he not went, and he felt bad for being a killjoy. What an extrovert this guy was. It wasn’t until Rento spoke up again did Sato realise he was leaning into him, pointing at someone out of the crowd. <font color=""salmon"">”Hey, look at mask boy over there. Weird, eh? Lugging a guitar ‘round the mall…”</font><br/><br/>	Sato looked over at whoever Rento was gesturing towards, which proved easy enough. There was, after all, only one young man carrying a guitar on his back and an unusual mask on his face. It would’ve been understandable had it been the typical kind of mask people wore, but this was a bit more… out there. Definitely not disposable. Mind the guitar too, the possibly more interesting part. His curiosity was rising, and when Rento elbowed him in the side, it got the best of him. Sato rose to his feet, passing off the half-finished salad to Rento and shoving the novel into his coat pocket.<br/><br/>	As he approached the boy, Sato noticed the young man had his eyes closed, presumably focusing on something and/or listening to the music as he walked. Sato scratched the back of his head a bit before speaking up. <font color=""skyblue"">”Excuse me, sir, but will you be playing today? I’m just curious.”</font> He glanced over to Rento, who gave a simple thumbs up back. Whatever the idols were performing ended, and as they began to transition to the next song, the roar of the crowd filled the mall. Sato never fancied unruly crowds live performances of stuff like idols and rock bands always brought with them. As he waited for the crowd to die down and the young man to reply, Sato watched the boy carefully, looking for a sign of annoyance.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/acerro"">@AcerRo</a></div>"

It only took a moment before the worries faded away and was he was reminded of what he loved so much about playing.<br/><br/> Maybe it was nerves, maybe it was the brand new strings. He was only half way into the song when his fingers started to bleed. He wouldn't notice or care until was he done playing. When you love what your doing it, pain and inconvenience could be tossed by the way side.<br/><br/>As the song ended, Rikimaru finally felt the warm liquid running down his hand and guitar. He could only smile at the sight of it. For some this was a badge of honor, for others it was simply a myth. It was part of the first group.<br/><br/>As the song ended and last note rang, he simply wiped the blood on pants once and gave a small bow.

'Azure 5' they were called. Chiaki new who exactly they were, the newest group from Tokyo who were doing poorly, due to their music not hitting high enough in the charts, also, her replacement. This group took over Chiaki as an Idol due to her being unable to fully become one when she moved to Warakuma. She almost chuckled. As awful as it was to think lightly of their situation, for some reason she was happy they weren't a large success.<br/>Looking over at Ayano, it didn't appear as if she particularly liked the group or the song they were singing. <br/>""<font color=""#662d91"">I'll go get us some ice cream, just a moment Aya-chan, keep an eye on their cute dresses, that's probably the best thing about them hahaha...</font>"" Chiaki left after making her poorly tasting comment. It only took a moment to get through the crowd and find a vendor selling food, unfortunately, no ice cream, the two would have to settle for some colourful candy in a bag. Whilst she was away, the crowd seemed to have become alot thicker, not anybody she recognized from school, they must have been from Tokyo, followers of the group she assumed. Not a friendly looking bunch... Deciding to take a small detour, she walked around the outskirts of the crowd to try and find an opening towards Ayano... <br/><br/>It was very sudden, but she heard somebody call out her name... It was the last thing she could remember before losing all her energy, dropping the snacks on the ground and slumping into somebodies arms... Was it their arms?... Could it have been a bag?... Was it just a single person?... Confused and drifting into a slumber, Chiaki had passed out and was being taken somewhere...<br/> <br/><br/></div>"

With swipe after swipe of the cards they had bought, she could just see the imminent cloud of defeat looming over her cousin...She almost felt bad for her. <span class=""bb-i"">""Almost""</span> being the key word. The small voices in her head calling out to her that she cease bullying her obviously inexperienced cousin were shot down by her overblown ego, maybe it <span class=""bb-b"">WAS</span> too much? Probably not, in Ayano's case anyway.<br/><br/>With another swipe of their cards, Ayano could swear they've probably spent more than they should have all in this arcade, but it was a small price to pay for their happiness. Even though she was dismayed over the fact Chiaki wouldn't play any of the horror games or the horror-themed rail shooters with her, she just shrugged and gave a reassuring smile to her cousin. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Meh, those games force you to waste all of your money anyway...Keeping you on edge just to get to the end where you keep on swiping and swiping to defeat the final boss...""</font></span></span> It was true anyway, she could remember the days where she would spend half of her allowance just to finish <span class=""bb-i"">'Mansion of the Undead'</span> in one sitting. The horrible voice acting made it worse.<br/><br/>During their time at the racing games, Chiaki was failing miserably at every turn, seemingly getting worse until the point where she crashed her car with another player's. Now, she wasn't the best at these things but she knows for a fact that that's the opposite of what you do in racing games, the absurdity of it all made Ayano laugh wholeheartedly, possibly moreso than she's ever before in her cooped-up life, it was a nice change of pace, refreshing even. She stepped out of the booth and with an uncharacteristic bounce in her step, walked with cousin towards the fighting game machines. Even ecstatic at the fact they were holding a fighting game tournament today, shame that it wasn't one that she played. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Remember when I said I was going to dominate you?""</font></span></span> She said while turning to face her cousin, her face turning playfully aggressive as she sat down/ <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Yeah, I'm not going to be hold out just because you're new.""</font></span></span><br/><br/>In a flash Ayano's character was setting up combos and juggles up to the point that Chiaki's character's life bar was just a hand's reach from death. Deciding to go with a flashy finish, her character's meter had just enough for their most powerful super move, and with quick button presses, Ayano's character unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks, ending with a huge explosion that sent Chiaki's character beaten. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""And that's how you dominate!""</font></span></span> The girl said with a coy expression on her face, she was pretty much petered out from their little brawl and was shocked when Chiaki was the one pulling her instead! Ayano just groaned as if to say <span class=""bb-i"">""Alright, alright.""</span> when she saw that their next (and hopefully last) game this time around would be a rhythm game. When they started to play, Ayano was surprised to see how good Chiaki was at this game, heck, <span class=""bb-b"">SHE</span> was the one who was failing the first few times! It took quite some time for her to get adjusted to the rhythm and beat of the game before finally setting on a pace she was comfortable with and managed to get a good string of combos in no time. The crowd watching them was cheering, their names being shouted as if they were big-time idols. Ayano was more than embarrassed at the thought. And with the final steps ceasing their playtime at the arcade was over, Ayano was deadbeat and gasping for air...Truly, this day will be one of the most memorable in her lifetime. As they returned to the inn, the girl couldn't help but feel as though something was troubling her cousin...<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#0054a6"">Warakuma Shopping Complex</font></span></div><br/>Today, Ayano was dragged to the shopping complex because an idol group that her cousin knows would be performing today. According to the websites she's visited, they're a new idol group called <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00aeef"">'Azure 5'</font></span>, who from various sources she's visited, were not exactly at the top of their game. Some even claimed they were meant to replace Chiaki, following her move in to Warakuma. Unfortunately, Ayano wasn't exactly in to idol's, this particular group just seemed mediocre than most of what she's seen, but at least they're bearable...To a certain extent.<br/><br/>After Chiaki made a distasteful comment about the group and going to buy ice cream, Ayano just laughed as she waited for cousin to come back, she was getting a little hungry after all. The minutes ticked by and Chiaki had not yet returned, making Ayano slightly worried. Deciding to take action, she plunged herself into the arms of the crowd, calling out her cousin's name as loud as she could. She walked and she walked but there were no signs of her...This is bad, had she gone missing? The girl feared for the worst and did the most responsible thing she could at the moment: Get the attention of a police officer and say that her cousin is missing, even giving her visual appearance. She was worried, she feared for the worse...Some sicko or pervert probably snuck her away into a nearby stall and...Ayano just shivered at the thought, hoping that was just one of the least possible outcomes.<br/></div>"

He turned back to the store he was headed to and grimaced. He had no idea where he was. He growled and kicked a nearby trash can. It rocked a little but didn't fall over. He looked around and saw a few people staring. What the hell, everyone knows that if you stare at a weirdo then you're even weirder. He put on a smile and waved. ""Sorry about that. I tripped."" They turned away and continued their business. He looked at his phone to check where he was and shook his head. He made a wrong turn a couple of blocks back.<br/><br/>""Fucking weirdos."" He mumbled under his breath as he walked into the furniture store. He bought a lamp and told them to have it delivered to his house. They thought nothing of it and continued their day. Ryan walked out of the store and some tall girl (Taller than him anyways) kicked him over. It's worse than New York around here! He shook his head and cleared the cobwebs out. ""God damn that hurt.""

Recalling the events of that strange world was too much to form into logical words, and when they pushed her for the answers they sought, she felt herself clamming up, despite the desperate need to express exactly <span class=""bb-i"">what</span> had happened.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""I...I don't remember..."",</font> she answered meekly, in a tone so subdued it made her feel sick.<br/><br/>The officers weren't <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> pleased with Leiko's vagueness on her whereabouts the past few days, but the nurse quickly ushered them away before they could distress her too much with the 'traumatic memories.' And for that she was thankful. It was likely that the hospital were operating on the assumption that Leiko had been abducted and assaulted, given their careful behaviour around her, (and the various health checks they performed), but it was obvious that they were considering giving her the all-clear soon and discharging her. And Leiko could hardly wait.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Not long after the police had left, Rui made a surprise visit to the hospital, and all at once, the thousands of questions that rattled through Leiko's mind threatened to tumble forth. <span class=""bb-i"">What was that place?</span> <span class=""bb-i"">What's a Persona, and why do I have one?</span> <span class=""bb-i"">How did you find me?</span><br/><br/>The questions would have to wait it seemed, as Rui dismissed the notion of a serious discussion on what happened on Sunday and promised her a time where they would finally be able to talk out of earshot of nosy nurses and doctors. She wanted to argue with his logic, but she knew had a good point, so instead she fell stormily silent and looked down at the strange anime keyring he had given her. It wasn't really her cup of tea, but it looked cute enough, and a gift was still a gift.<br/><br/>Rui gave her a scrap of paper as well, with his phone number scrawled into it. So she at least had the means to contact him so she could demand her answers. Not to mention figure out what exactly she was supposed to do with her newly found powers.<br/><br/>The boy began to retreat from the room, but not before offering her some kind words on her presidency. It had been unexpected, in the light of everything that had happened. But it was still nice to hear.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Thank you Rui-kun. For...everything.""</font> Her reply was warm and heartfelt, and no more was said once he left the room.<br/><br/>She would get the answers she needed...eventually. But right now, what was important was her friends and family.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Wednesday 28th April 2015: Evening</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Saya Ueno: Warakuma Hospital</span><br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""They're discharging me tomorrow. There's no real need to keep me here any longer.""</font><br/><br/>Saya nearly choked on the piece of red velvet cake that she had sneaked into the room for herself and Leiko to share. ""Wh-What? Are you sure? Don't you need more checkups?""<br/><br/>When she had been informed that Leiko had been admitted to hospital, it was the single most heart-rendering feeling that Saya had felt in her life so far. Her best friend had been found intact, and <span class=""bb-b"">alive.</span> It was nothing short of a miracle to her. <br/><br/>She couldn't remember the details of what happened when she saw Leiko awake and well for the first time. She had cried so much her eyes got tired and sore, and she was pretty sure she was close to breaking a few of Leiko's ribs when she embraced her. Hearing her friend joke about the fact drew out a watery chuckle from her, and from that point, they had carried on as if nothing had changed between them.<br/><br/>Except for the inexplicable feeling that Leiko was hiding more from her than she would like. The strawberry haired girl insisted that she couldn't remember anything beyond Saya getting struck and falling unconscious, but something clearly struck a wrong chord with her. Leiko was a good actress to be sure, and Saya <span class=""bb-b"">wanted</span> to believe in what Leiko was saying, but she knew her a lot better than what she expected. Heck, she was a bona fide Hama-chan expert. So why would she hide something so important from her?<br/><br/>Saya reasoned that whatever the memory was, it was just too traumatic for her to recall, which forced her to hold back from pressing the issue further. She loved Hama-chan, and the last thing she wanted was to hurt her any further. Saya had gained some issues just from being <span class=""bb-i"">struck</span> by the cult, let alone what Leiko had been through.<br/><br/>But considering her mental state, was it really okay for Leiko to be leaving the hospital so soon?<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Honestly, I'm sick of these four walls. I want to get out and start living life again.""</font> Leiko replied with a carefree smile. <font color=""yellow"">""I've missed so much of Golden Week already! I'm tired of living vicariously through other people's experiences...""</font> She took a thoughtful bite of the cake that Saya had brought and studied her friend carefully. <font color=""yellow"">""Have you been okay? I'm glad your bruise is healing up...I was worried about you.""</font><br/><br/>""Worried about me? Hah."" Saya shook her head dismissively, her eyes falling onto the get well shrine Leiko was accumulating. ""You're getting quite a collection there. We were all out there looking for you, you know. Our friends.""<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""I know,""</font> Leiko agreed, her eyes following to where Saya's rested on. <font color=""yellow"">""I feel so...blessed. I took you all for granted before. Treated you like pawns. I...wasn't a very good person.""</font><br/><br/>""What? Hama-chan, no-""<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""It's okay, Saya.""</font> Leiko reassured her with a confident smile. <font color=""yellow"">""I'm not making any more excuses for my behaviour. I want to change. I want to be a better friend.""</font><br/><br/>The words coming out of Leiko's words were so strange to hear, that it made Saya merely gawp at her soundlessly. The strong, aloof, tough-as-nails Leiko Hamada never apologised for anything. But she seemed so...humble now. It was just too weird.<br/><br/>But...she had stayed at Leiko's side through thick and thin, and she wasn't going to stop now. ""Well, then so will I."" Saya vowed, reaching over and looping Leiko's pinkie finger through hers. ""To being better friends!""<br/><br/>There was still an undercurrent of doubt that plagued Saya, but she wouldn't show it as the two girls continued to gossip and eat cake until the end of the visiting period ended. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Friday 1st May 2015: Midday</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Leiko Hamada and Saya Ueno: Warakuma Shopping Complex</span><br/><br/>""Are you sure you're okay to keep walking around like this, Hamada-san? I mean, you were only discharged from the hospital yesterday!""<br/><br/>The sun was bright in Warakuma and the crowds were loud and bustling as they headed away from the city centre, where the 'Azure 5' idols had just been performing. That was the main purpose of the day, with most of Leiko's friends being keen fans of the group. Leiko couldn't pretend that she shared their passion, although she admitted that a couple of their songs were catchy enough. So she had agreed-and <span class=""bb-i"">insisted</span>- that she join them for the day. It was only fair, since she had such little of a Golden Week to begin with. <font color=""yellow"">""Honestly, I am fine. They wouldn't have discharged me if I wasn't ready. Besides, I really don't want to be cooped up on a day like this,""</font> she reassured them, gesturing to the clear blue skies that blessed them. <font color=""yellow"">""And please, don't call me 'Hamada-san'. I want you to call me 'Leiko' now, ok?""</font><br/><br/>That was another change that had been inspired from the recent state of events. In the past, she had insisted that even her closest friends refrain from calling her Leiko. It was too personal, which made her feel far too uncomfortable. Now that she had faced the doubts in her heart, she wanted her friends to get to know the real her, rather than the image she had assumed before them. Dropping last name basis had been the start of that. <br/><br/>""Okay..uhh, Leiko-chan,"" her friend stammered, looking uncomfortable and pleased at the same time as she looked over at the other girls. ""What's holding them up?""<br/><br/>""Ugh, it's Saya. She's getting distracted again..."" One of the other girls complained, and true enough there was Saya in the distance, eyeing something in one of the stores. <br/><br/>""That girl...""<br/><br/>The girl in question was busy looking at the new, polished oak vanity table displayed in the furniture store, and Saya <span class=""bb-b"">wanted</span> it more than life itself. She had far too many cosmetics scattered around in her room, and the piece would be such a nice addition to the aesthetics of her room. But the thing cost so damn much! If only she could be scouted by an idol agent or something...and then she would never have to work a day at her family's crappy restaurant again.<br/><br/>She heard her friends begin to call for her at that moment, snapping her out of her doldrums as she called back as loudly as she could. ""I'm coming!""<br/><br/>She broke into a brisk sprint so she could catch up with her friends, but not before abruptly tripping over a short, sullen boy about her age. ""Ahh! Ooops!"" Quickly catching herself before she unceremoniously landed on her face, Saya quickly looked over at the boy with an apologetic look on her face. ""Oh my gosh, I'm sorry! I didn't see you. I really wasn't looking. Are you okay?"" </div>"

Where all these people come from? Definitively not from Warakuma. Gen lived in the town all his life, and he barely recognised anyone. Someone had clearly been busy making all these humans. But to make a single human you need nine months of pregnancy, and you could only have so many fetuses inside one womb. Unless... it was a mega uterus?! A scientific discovery that could host several fetuses at once! How could have Gen not seen that? But would not everyone be identical? No, if several samples were used and not just one, then... an evil idol group could have infinite fans and make a lot of money!<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">""What am I thinking?""</font> Gen looked up over the crowd.

Being taken aback and blinking her eyes in shock from his sudden recovery, it took several seconds for the Japanese girl to pick up the English words she understood to form an idea of what he might have said. The currently lightly colored cheeks hued into a deeper shade, realizing he was pertaining to her when he mentioned the words 'cute little angel'. She quickly raised both of her hands to hide her blushing face from anyone's view, until she heard the brunette boy speak Japanese in a somewhat fluent manner.<br/><br/>Slowly lowering her hands to take a peek at the male once more in curiosity, the female student responded with her now clasped hands nervously shaking in front of her. <font color=""violet"">""Um...

She also wasn't all to familiar nor fans of the idol group but she had a lot of time on hands and nothing to kill it with. Anyways, after much debating, she found herself walking to the Park in order to clear her head and get out of her cave. <br/><br/>There's been more whispers and eye contact aimed at her as of late, but that's no real surprise because word travels fast in a place like Warakuma. She was reckless but it couldn't be helped, not like anything as changed really because given her reputation and all, it can be assumed that Noboru was simply one of the thugs/trash she normally deals with, so if theres anyone in a situation, it'd more than likely be him. Though, she did fight a gruesome fight, by Japanese standards anyway, in a public place so it's not she won't be on the end of some backlash or punishment for it. <br/><br/>She's actually expecting it, well, not like she's the pure and innocent type so it doesn't matter though, she is an honor student after all.

An inattentive crowd, what buzz kill. His fingers were still bleeding and no one seemed to notice. With all the genius and wilds that the fifteen year old could muster he would play a<br/><a href=""https://youtu.be/Qpvzs85XIXc"" rel=""nofollow"">another song</a> and get off the stage.<br/><br/>He only passed the first chorus before it happened. The stage was rushed by an <a href=""http://s725.photobucket.com/user/786sarah786/media/Anime%20Girls/q.jpg.html"" rel=""nofollow"">orange hair girl</a>, running up in an overly cute and feminine sorta way. She whisperes into his softy. ""Keep playing the same song and only sing the choruses. They'll love it."" As quickly as she appeared, she was on his phone. Selecting a different version of the same, one that Rikimaru didn't know. While  <a href=""https://youtu.be/0gGVIqADoT0"" rel=""nofollow"">music</a> was almost identical, the opening however, was vastly different.<br/><br/>From the second the music started to play the orange haired girl was bouncing up and down in complete and total rocker chick fashion.  A great contrast to Rikimaru's standing strong energy. With each verse that the two sang. It was more like they were sing to each other than to a crowd of people. <br/><br/>Each movement instinctively played off the other. Her sass played off his played his pleading. They're contradictory ways only seemed to compliment each with each passing note. It was the first time they had ever seen each other, let alone preformed together. Yet no one crowd could or would have guessed that. <br/><br/>This was far from the best performance that two people could or would have put on. Truth be told both left a little something to be desired, however like a cheeseburger or a beef bowl, it was much greater than the sum of its parts.<br/><br/>When the song was over, the crowd cheered and roaring at exceeded expectations. These two kids, complete strangers to each other had slayed it. The orange haired girl went back to being as cute as she could. In a kind and thankful voice, she shouted out to the crowd. ""I'm Ai, thank you so much for listening to our song!"" She posed with a peace sign and shouted something that Rikimaru couldn't make out.<br/><br/>After watching her leave Rikimaru looked at his hands and fingers. They were bloodies pretty well. He also notice that his guitar was almost covered in it. It wasn't gonna hurt anything , fingers are pretty vascular but still he needed to get it taken care of.  With that thought in his head Rikimaru put his stuff away grabbed his phone and bowed deeply in front of the crowd. He was greatful for being able to play but girl named Ai had already said enough for the both of them in his mind.</div>"

The idol group was gone and with it their followers. But then someone got on stage. Someone that seemed... familiar. He would have recognized him earlier had he been wearing the shcool uniform. But there was something that gave him away. The mask. That mask was characteristic of someone from school! More specifically, someone that was in Gen's class! He had a weird surname, but he knew his name was...<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">""Rikimaru?!""</font> Gen's jaw dropped, and his eyes became as big as saucers. Seeing someone you knew up on a stage was odd, even if one had not spoken to said person very much or was friends with it. He was good at it, at least, good enough to be confident about it and play before a crowd. Gen would not be capable of such things, in his opinion. When the song ended, he clapped, though it was most out of respect than anyt- Wait, was Rikimaru bleeding?!<br/><br/>And he was still playing?! But, how? Actually, why? His fingers were red, Gen could see that much. The first year moved towards the edge of the crowd. Even if he did not know the first thing about him, Rikimaru was still a classmate, and as classmates, there was an unspoken pact that they would help their peers. And if that meant bringing him down the stage, then so be it.<br/><br/>But maybe after he finished the song, it would be rude to just step in mid-performance like that.<br/><br/>So when Rikimaru was done, Gen was waiting at the side. He started asking the most important question he had. <font color=""skyblue"">""Are you crazy?!""</font> And then: <font color=""skyblue"">""Oh, sorry. Itoshi Gen. We're classmates. I think I saw a pharmacy here. You should... put something there.""</font> His eyes looked down on the bleeding fingers.

We look forward to seeing you then,""</font> she said, the latter words feeling a little awkward - but she still felt a little happy that the girl was so joyous at the prospect of the gift. However, rather than say any more, a rather unexpected sight caught Kotori's eye - and Shizuka's, it seemed - when Alexei, who had been talking to her mother, turned to face the two girls. It took her a moment to realise that there were tears coming from his eyes and she wasn't quite sure she wasn't just imagining it as he bowed quickly - but then it turned out to be true as he raised his head again and shortly left the store. The so very unexpected sight left Kotori glancing between the slowly shutting door and her mother as Shizuka, leaving the older boy a moment, followed suit. It was only once they had left that Kotori hurried to the counter; in her hurry not even having noticed the handkerchief covering the small prick that Shizuka had incurred.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Tsubame Shirohane - Shinza Shopping Square: Shirohane Flowershop | Wednesday, April 29 2015</span><br/><br/>Following her words, for a lack of better words, Alexei fell apart. He had briefly shown this side moments before - but he'd recovered in time. Now, however, the tears filled up the corners of his eyes before spilling over. He quickly noticed though and bowed his head even as Tsubame's smile turned gentle - it seemed that the boy really was having it tough, though she didn't speak a word yet. He spoke - to his credit with only a slight wavering - instead, asking to confirm that she really would honour her words if ever the need arose. Tsubame gave a slow nod - though even if Alexei was quite tall, he'd hardly be able to see it with his head bowed so low - before putting it to words too: <font color=""ivory"">""Of course. You have my word, Dragunov-kun.""</font><br/><br/>Her voice had been more low-key as opposed to her usual almost perpetual cheerfulness as if to make clear her sincerity - how could she not, after what he'd just shown? As he then expressed his gratitude, her smile returned again as she gave a bow whilst receiving the money. <font color=""ivory"">""Oh, I must thank you,""</font> she said before the boy gave a bow toward both Shizuka and Kotori and, after a smile that seemed to be bit too strained to be a common occurence for him, headed outside. Seeing the confused look on her daughter's face, Tsubame could already tell that she'd be heading right over the second the other girl left - which she did just moments later.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Wha... was everything alright?""</font> Kotori asked, briefly glancing out through the flowers standing in the display windows and outside, but not seeing Alexei and only a glimpse of Shizuka before she passed out of the field of view afforded. <font color=""ivory"">""Oh, there's really nothing to worry about,""</font> Tsubame said with a smaller smile than usual. <font color=""ivory"">""Dragunov-kun merely got a little emotional,""</font> she said - though the doubt was written all across Kotori's face in the small ways that her mother knew how to read all too well. Whilst she didn't doubt the words per se, it was just quite a difference to the usually so stoic-seeming and imposing-looking Alexei that it was a little hard to believe right away. <font color=""ivory"">""Don't worry, neither he nor his family are in any trouble. Quite the opposite, really,""</font> Tsubame said with a wider smile.<br/><br/>Glancing one last time out the window, Kotori slowly nodded after a moment's thought - though she hadn't seen his face for more than a few moments, he hadn't seemed quite as sad as tears might have suggested. Deciding to let the matter rest - perhaps there would be an opportunity to ask at a later time without prying into the matter too deeply - Kotori remembered that there was still work to be done.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Ferrero Mall | Friday, May 1 2015</span><br/><br/>Kotori was looking down at her shopping list once again, mentally crossing off the last item that was packed away in her bag before looking back up with a brief satisfied expression - only to turn startled when suddenly loud music started up. Looking to its source, a group of five girls burst onto the stage - Azure 5, the idol group whose show had been announced before and whose faces were on the numerous flyers around town for a while. There was a large crowd gathered in front of the stage and their cheering was mixing with the music as the girls danced about the stage whilst singing; showing no signs of stage fright despite standing before so many people - at least no sign that Kotori could notice. Standing a bit away from the crowd, she was watching the show - whilst she didn't follow the ever-changing world of idols both male and female, she couldn't help but admire them for the way they could stand upon a stage with the world watching and sing to their heart's content, wearing such flashy and cute clothes.<br/><br/>When the show drew to a close and the girls gave a final bow, Kotori gave a subdued clapping - mostly due to her shopping bags containing the next few days' groceries being in the way. The cheers were loud and went on for a little while longer - they must be quite popular, she thought as she got ready to head back home. However, just as she turned, she heard a voice over the general noise of the crowd - in particular, a name being cried repeatedly; the slowly rising panic in the voice evident even against the backdrop though not the exact name unfortunately. Had perhaps some friends got split up in the slowly moving crowd - or perhaps a child gotten lost? Not seeing who was calling through all the people, it then seemed to stop - hopefully because the caller had found who they were searching.<br/><br/>Deciding to hang on for a moment, Kotori looked about to see if any children happened to be about without any attending parent or sibling - but to no avail. As a boy took to the stage with his guitar, the crowd was starting to thin out - their main draw, Azure 5, having left already after all. Amongst those still staying, some were listening to the boy who was soon joined by a girl, though neither drew Kotori's attention at that moment - instead, she pushed up her glasses that had gotten a little misaligned from the constant looking about as before passing over one girl in particular. A frantic expression coupled by the uneasy way she held her phone to her ear brought to mind the voice Kotori had heard - were the calls perhaps only interrupted because she was speaking to someone on the phone?<br/><br/>It took her another moment - but after seeing the clear distress on the girl's face, Kotori decided to step closer; waiting for her to finish her call. She couldn't hear what she was saying over the music and the other people's voices - but she didn't seem happy, that was for sure. When the girl in question brought her phone back down from her ear, Kotori stepped forward. <font color=""green"">""E-excuse me?""</font> she said, her voice barely audible over the background noise and probably not even heard, given the intended listener's state. <font color=""green"">""Is... is everything alright?""</font> she asked, only slightly louder this time and all the while with worry creeping into her expression. Whilst she wasn't sure it was her place to burst into someone else's matters in this way, she couldn't help but at least offer her help if she could - even if she felt a little silly for not having anything else to say in such a situation other than a question to which the answer so clearly was 'No'.</div>"

Playing, like fighting was almost an unhealthy addiction for him.<br/><br/>By the time he had finished speaking, more and more people started gather around. All either impressed by the music or the fact he could play through the pain and the blood. Either way, Rikimaru didn't want anything to do with this. Heaven forbid that idol agent would come over. They were hard to get rid of to say the least. Rikimaru did take solice in that girl though. Anyone would be a fool to go after him and not her.<br/><br/>Am,the girls name was name. She had shouted something at him before running off but he couldn't make it out. He almost wished that she had left her number. Their on stage chemistry was awesome. She could have been fun to play with but there was more pressing matters to deal with.<br/><br/>Rikimaru went back to Gen. He stuck out his bloodied hand for a hand shake Realizing it was the bloody hand that needed a little medical attention, he withdrew his hand and simply bowed. ""Rikimaru Elsworth. Could I bother to show me where this pharmacy is? I need to take care of my hand before it gets any worse."" Again his voice was calm, almost detached from the whole situation.</div>"

One who was from Warakuma would not be too surprised to find schoolmates around town as it might be growing a little more industrious as its neighbor, Tokyo, but there are only about two schools around the area, one of which is a private school. Yet it was still nice to find more people of her age and befriending them, mostly due to Shizuka being shy and a freshman to the school at that.<br/><br/>Lightly nodding in response to Matt's permission for calling her such, the female student enthusiastically (in her own, soft voice way) spoke, <font color=""violet"">""T-Thank you, senpai!

Shizuka might not know a thing or two on the common knowledge for nature enthusiasts but she was willing to learn and appreciate the vegetation.<br/><br/>Once the upperclassman who had been voicing out his passion for nature finished his piece and apologized as he chuckled, Shizuka clasped her hands together and held them atop her chest with a light curve upon her lips. His speech didn't bore her at all, in fact, it was inspiring for the underclassman. <font color=""violet"">""Oh no, it was not a nuisance at all, Harvester-senpai.

I won't lose anything other some blood."" Rikimaru was grateful for the guys worrying but he was in nine kinds of a tizzy for something only required three or maybe four kinds of tizzy. The amount of tizzy was too damn high! None the less Gen was kind.<br/><br/>With those words said Rikimaru gathered a few more things. Doing his best not to get blood anything more than floor. Gen had the Gauze of Life, but he still needed tape, disinfectant and a bottle of water. He couldn't help but smile under that mask of his. He was more worried about the blood stains on this guitar than his cuts on his finger.<br/><br/>The look on the woman's face when Rikimaru went to pay for everything was near priceless. The look of disgust and shock on her face when he handed her the bloody money was awesome. Again he couldn't but smile. ""Gen, you coming?"" With that he walked out and starting ripping open the packaging and fixing up his fingers, he was fast and good at. It was more or less an occupational hazard, he was used to it.<br/><br/>By the time that Gen could get to him he was already done and working on cleaning up his guitar. It wouldn't take him long to get it cleaned, again he had done this once or twice before. Without a look Rikimaru spoke to Gen. ""I'll be at park the tomorrow. Afternoon, if you care to join me."" As soon as he finished he got up and left.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">Saturday, May 3rd, 2015<br/>Warakuma Park, Early Afternoon</div><br/>Rikimaru was sitting on a picnic table, meditating. If he couldn't play today he could at least do some training. In front of him was set of training Kamas. A clear head, and a mostly uninjured body would be just right for him. His dress was the same always when away from school. He never understood why people put on training gear when that's not something their likely to have when needed to use any sort of fighting art. He did<br/><br/>Within an instant he was off the table, with Kamas in his hand. With every movement he gained speed and power. His movements weren't in the traditional style of hard, sharp movements. His movements were fluid, quick and light. These movements could easily be turned into hard, sharp and powerful movements but there wasn't a need for any of that right now. </div>"

The intense love for nature was clearly visible in his eyes despite a bit of daze from the recent fall. It also worked wonders at charming the young girl besides them, he had to agree that Matt had that flair about him. A certain aura that was strangely jovial and disarming, like the Sun which has blessed his homeland quite greatly in comparison, he was more like a dark night: keeping his emotions inside.<br/><br/>Shizuka joined in with her query about him being familiar which was hardly surprising given his peculiar build. He was quite a strange one in the school so it was not hard to miss but he never knew that she went to the same school, partly due to her being a freshman and partly because of her looks. It was easier for her to blend in unlike him. She looked rather excited on the mention of Kotori's name signalling that the affable Shirohane had rubbed her presence on her as well. Though he felt that she was hiding something as she talk about expressing herself freely to which Alexei could relate.<br/><br/>He wanted to know of the constraints that denied her free expression but he wasn't the probing kinds rather he waited for her enough to let her ask another question.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Well, mine is an MMA club. Headed by our classmate, Inoue Matsuhita. Perhaps, you would have heard of her, she is quite famous in the sport circles and in Warakuma. Inoue the Iron-legged, I think is her sobriquet.""</font></span> Alexei said in reply to her query, waiting for it to sink into both of them. He hadn't formally asked Matthew to participate in his club so maybe he could use this chance.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""It was essentially more of a self-defense training Club but that name wasn't catchy so we went with MMA since that also happens to be the end goal of the president. Currently, there are only three members. All upperclassmen. But anyone and everyone is welcome, from all walks of life. You don't need to be a prior martial artist to join. We currently have a Muay Boran specialist, a Tae Kwon Do one and myself training Jiujitsu and Sambo.""</span></font> he said in an even tone. Hopefully, the answer was detailed enough to sate her curiosity.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Elena was getting a bit irritated for being ignored for so long. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00a651"">""Hey! don't forget me.""</font></span> she barged in the group, going upto Matthew to take his hand and shaking it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#00a651"">""I'm Elena, Alexei's sister""</font></span> she said confidently, Alexei looked at her sideways to signal to drop it and re-establish the space. The glance was fleeting but one that Elena knew well but she chose to ignore it, giving him a bashful smile in return. He was an over-protective brother and though she loved him for it, sometimes it was a bit stifling. She can have the lecture later and get done with it but for now, this wa the only way to be included in the conversation.</div>"

Unless he was the one being late. In which case, Gen will have to accept his apology. He probably would have already mostly recovered from yesterday. Oh no, what if he got worse? Could he actually get worse, though. Probably not, but then again, the guy wears a mask, so maybe his body works differently from the rest?<br/><br/>When Gen reached the park and was near the picnic table where they had arranged to meet, he just stood there, dumbfounded. Un. Believelable. He was training, or maybe role-playing? There were rumours that some people like to take their role play a little too seriously. What was he suppose to be? A farmer samurai who dishonoured his clan and now seeks revenge? No, that sounded too cliché. Oh wait! A farmer samurai destined to find the legendary Demon Flower to save his wife! Probably. But seriously, carrying weapons in public, even if they were farming instruments, was against the law.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">""Oi, Rikimaru-san!""</font> Gen waved at him so he could see him.

Would like to learn a little? I do owe you one for your concerns yesterday."" Rikimaru was almost shocked at how much he just said at once.<br/><br/>Was Rikimaru starting to make a friend? This what freienda did for each other right? They helped each other and showed concern. None the less, it was still a chance to have and show off a little. Who could pass up that opportunity?<br/><br/>To a alleviate any anxiety but Gen might have had. Rikimaru spun both Kamas in his hand. Both front wards and backwards.

Did he know about weapons and that sort of stuff? Seems likely. He had that air of mistery that those ancient warriors often depicted in stories had. That was it; Rikimaru seemed as though he had been ripped off his tale and brought to the real world. He surely had his reasons to wear the mask, even to school, where it was probably an infraction to dress code policies? Well, no one said anything, so probably not.<br/><br/>In any case, he started doing something with the kamas. Gen prayed for his life, because for a moment he thought he had offended Rikimaru and so he would have to pay with his life. But it was not so. In fact, apparently Rikimaru was doing some tricks with the weapons to... impress Gen? Why would he need to impress him? Even though he asked that in his head, Gen was fairly impressed. His eyebrows raised in mild astonishment and when the other was done, he even clapped a bit. Not an overly-enthusiastic, probably embarrassing ovation, but a modest and sincere set of claps. <font color=""skyblue"">""That looked cool! Where did you learn that?""</font> Gen asked, still keeping a good distance between him and the sharp edge of the kamas. Remembering something, he took off his backpack and opened it. <font color=""skyblue"">""Oh, I hope you don't mind, but I brought some snacks with me.""</font><br/><br/>One would imagine that by 'snacks', Gen was meaning 'potato chips' or something along those lines, but instead, he took out a plastic container that had homemade brownies and another with scones, also self-elaborated. <font color=""skyblue"">""Not to brag, but I'm actually very good at cooking. Hehe. In middle school, my class did a café for the festival, and I had to run back home to make more sweets because we ran out.""</font> He let out a laugh. Good times, good times.

Rikimaru tapped the side of his face with a Kama. ""There's a reason I wear this and its not the most pleasant on world. It can really set people off their feed."" He hung his head clearly not wanting to pursue the subject anymore.<br/><br/>He didn't know what else to say on the matter. There was nothing that he wanted to talk about on that subject. It wasn't a pleasant one for him. In fact he avoided it at all costs. Outside of his parents and his new found guardians and the school principal, no one had seen his face in years.

The Japanese girl could somewhat understand his shock. Looking back at her meeting with the Dragunov siblings, she might not have been able to guess they were related unless they introduced them so.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff79a"">""Hohoho, what do we have here?

She poked the cheek of the now blushing girl. The short haired girl made it sound like a joke but the thought embarrassed the shy girl nonetheless. I mean...

But of course, it was sealed properly, no passersby would suspect her of being a huge otaku. Content with the purchases she made today, she was in a rather great mood due to it. Before heading home to indulge in her hobbies, her feet ceased in their tracks. What had made her pause? Realization of walking down the wrong path. Who knew there was a part to Shinza Shopping Square that she was not familiar of?<br/><br/>While tracing back her steps, a bookstore she had never seen before. Yoshida Book Cafe. Huh. A bookstore and a cafe combined together? Curious, Shizuka stepped inside and found herself between shelves of books and more books. Earlier that day, she might have had purchases of manga but she supposed she could take a look at a couple of sewing and clothes tailoring books. Picking out a few books and magazine of such type from a shelf, since they seemed to be organized in a certain way, Shizuka headed to the counter to order a drink for herself. <font color=""violet"">""Um...

He’d intended to make some kind of conversation but it appeared that the guitarist needed to go get ready or something as he immediately dismissed Sato to head over to the stage. Sato returned back to Rento, slumping back down the wall and sitting next to the boy. <font color=""skyblue"">”It seems he’ll be playing today. I wonder what kind of song he’ll do after the crowd was just listening to idol stuff. It’d be a bit of a sudden transition to go so acoustic in my opinion.”</font><br/><br/>	Rento cocked his head back towards the idols on stage. <font color=""salmon"">”I dunno. I’m only here for Azure 5, man, so I’m really to blow this joint as soon as they wrap it up.”</font> The two teens watched the girls on stage close off their performance, and only as men started to carry away some of the equipment and such did they rise from the ground, walking towards the exit they came from. As they drew close to the stage, Maskboy took the front, fiddling with something before facing the crowd with a guitar in hand. They were rather close to the stage, so Sato could see the male was pretty into playing the instrument, even playing to the point of a crimson leaking onto his guitar from his nimble hands. The crowd seemed rather apathetic towards this seemingly random guy playing, only a few bothering to cheer on the young male, though the lack of response seemed to not deter Maskboy much as he continued on to another song. <font color=""salmon"">”Geez, is that kid wearing a bloodpack or something? Playing way too hard.”</font><br/><br/>	Sato had no idea about the peculiarities of guitar-playing, so the third-year just nodded in response to Rento’s comment. Neither boys were very interested in the music Maskboy was playing, seeing as they both came prepared for something rather different, and left the complex just as Maskboy got interrupted by some orange-haired girl.

He had stayed up late last night, marathoning some new sentai show he’d found. Though he had fallen asleep somewhere around episode 17, leaving seven more to finish that evening, Sato found himself enticed by it despite the plot being rather lacklustre. Super sentai will always be his guilty pleasure.<br/><br/>	Being drop-dead tired and wanting to get outside at least once on the last day of Golden Week, Sato decided to get some kind of coffee. He’d already read through the three novels he’d bought the other day prior to binge-watching sentai, so heading over to the Yoshida Book Café seemed the best idea. He’d seen it when he was cutting through Shinza one time. It wasn’t hard to find again, seeing as it was on the only path he’d taken.<br/><br/>	The teen entered the book café, taking in the scent of coffee and the possibly imagined smell of old books both at once. It seemed nice enough. Sato wandered over to the front desk, money already in his hand. He ordered a heavily caffeinated coffee, and, assuming it’d take a bit to get his drink ready, wandered off into the maze of bookshelves to find something he was interested in reading. He managed to pick up a few crime novels after a quick scan of the section he was in. With the books in hand, the male stepped away from the walls of literature and over to a nearby table, disregarding the one girl already seated there. It wasn’t like anyone would care if they were into what they were reading.<br/><br/>	Though… as he set down the two books before him, Sato couldn’t help but look at the girl. An awfully familiar one, with a face that provoked unpleasant memories. The girl from the maid café?

The boy's slight awkwardness was not lost on Toma, and it was something the taller boy understood -- it had always felt a little strange interacting with Taiki's friends. Drawing from his past experiences, Toma decided to do his best to put his junior at ease.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Yup, that's me,""</font> he began, slipping his good hand in his pocket and letting the other one dangle. <font color=""#f26522"">""Oh? I didn't have to go through any sort of facade. Aiko was pretty welcoming the moment I spoke to him. Though I have noticed he can get a little... uh, uppity, I guess.""</font> The boy gave a small laugh. <font color=""#f26522"">""He's a good guy at heart for sure, though.""</font><br/><br/>Toma paused, thinking over how he should go about asking Noboru about his kidnapping. After a moment's deliberation, the only thing that came to mind was to just get to it.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Yeah, actually, I wanted to talk to you about your kidnapping.""</font> The tall boy paused again, letting that statement hang in the air for a second. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm extremely glad you turned up unharmed. You probably know, but Aiko had been worried sick about you, and he spent the entire time you were gone looking for you,""</font> Toma said with a small smile. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""I'm sure you're tired of being asked about it, but do you know anything about the people who nabbed you...?""</font> Toma glanced away, worrying that his questions would upset the other boy. <font color=""#f26522"">""I want to find out everything I can about these incidents. To, uh, try and do something about it, I guess--""</font><br/><br/>As he spoke, his cell phone began vibrating, telling him he had an incoming call. Toma rose his eyebrows in mild confusion as he pulled the phone out. He hadn't received a call on it since arriving in Warakuma, instead having only been texting. Checking the number and thinking he vaguely recognized it, he gave a quick bow to Noboru to excuse himself as he answered.<br/><br/>To his surprise, it was Yoshida, asking him to come in and work at the Cafe.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Right now?""</font> Toma asked, glancing at Noboru.<br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""If it's not too much trouble,""</font> was the response.<br/><br/>Toma thought it over, quickly deciding that he couldn't say no -- if this kept up, he'd soon officially have a job at the place. <font color=""#f26522"">""Alright, I'll come over.""</font><br/><br/>Turning back to Noboru, he scratched the back of his neck. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm sorry for leaving as suddenly as I appeared, Noboru-san,""</font> he began, looking disheartened.<font color=""#f26522""> ""If it's not too bothersome, I'd like to speak with you at another time. And I don't want to impose, but if you ever need any help with anything, I'd be glad to lend a hand, especially seeing as your Aiko's family,""</font> he added. <br/><br/>With that, he gave a quick wave and went off. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">May 3rd | Shinza Shopping Square - Yoshida Book Café</span><br/><br/>As Toma walked through town to Yoshida's shop, he unwrapped a small red lollipop and stuck it in his mouth.<br/><br/>This was, what, the fourth time the old man had called him to ask him to help for the day? Toma wasn't complaining -- work was work, after all -- but he kind of wished the man would offer him a proper part-time job. He didn't mind working there. It wasn't very stressful, but there had been more customers in the last couple days, keeping Toma from getting too bored. It was certainly slow enough that Yoshida would be able to take care of everything himself, so Toma wasn't sure why the man kept calling him back, but he didn't think too much about it. As it was now, Yoshida was the one actually making the drinks and running the little business, while Toma took care of everything else, especially keeping the place clean and doing any neccessary heavy lifting. When it came to waiting on customers, they basically took turns.<br/><br/>In short, it was pleasant, if not as intensive as the boy imagined he would prefer.<br/><br/>Toma opened the door into the cafe, causing a small bell to go off, and noticed the two customers, both appearing to be high-school age. He walked by quietly, not wanting to disturb them, as they both were reading.<br/><br/><font color=""#00746b"">""Ah, Toma-kun, good day,""</font> Yoshida greeted from behind the counter as the tall boy approached. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Hello, Yoshida-san. I see business is booming,""</font> Toma replied with a small nod and smirk.<br/><br/>The man laughed softly. <font color=""#00746b"">""Could you bring our guests their drinks once I have them finished?""</font> he asked, busy with readying the orders.<br/><br/>Toma glanced back at the two for a moment. <font color=""#f26522"">""Sure, just let me change quickly.""</font><br/><br/>He stepped into the back room, putting down his bag and hanging up his jacket. After tossing the stick of his finished lollipop into the trash, he slid on a nicer, white button-up shirt over his white t-shirt, and tied a small black apron around his waist. It was plain and simple, nothing extravagant, which was how he liked it.<br/><br/>Toma stepped back out through the swinging door just as Yoshida placed the drinks on the counter.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Milk tea for the young lady, and coffee for the gentleman,""</font> the old man said with two quick points to the cups. <br/><br/>The tall boy scooped them up, one in his left hand and one in his right, which had been healing okay and was becoming more and more usuable by the day. As he stepped around the counter, he heard the boy's voice, speaking to the girl. Toma slowed his walking pace down, hoping to arrive near them during a pause in the conversation. <br/><br/>Which is exactly what happened, just according to keikaku*.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""I'm sorry to disturb you two, but here are your drinks.

They're still at it?"" Jun commented to herself as she strolled around the mall. She had been doing walking around the building without purpose for a while now, though she was originally looking at some new clothes. Instead of her usual suit, today she was dressed like a girl for once, with <a href=""http://www.yinyanganime.com/intgfx/Punk-Vector-2.png"" rel=""nofollow"">a black tank top and plaid skirt</a> hugging her figure while thigh high socks and boots completed her look.<br/><br/>After the night at the inn, Jun had deliberately been avoiding her father's men, even those in charge of guarding her. She was in a foul mood after being used as a ""champion"" to browbeat another gang into submission. It seemed her father had bribed her opponent to cheat and was banking on Jun reacting to it. If he had bothered to tell her about that little scheme, perhaps she needn't have gone that far. She was reprimanded for going so far as to break the guy's rib, although her own legs would have been broken had she not reacted.<br/><br/>For now though, it seemed her attempt to evade her father's men by dressing more girlishly had drawn attention from a couple of other teenage guys. They had been tailing her for some time, perhaps working up the courage to ask her to join them or waiting until she was alone to harass her. She could handle them easily, of course, but making a scene in public was sure to blow her cover and end her little breather from the house early.<br/><br/>""Let's try <span class=""bb-i"">there.</span>"" Jun ducked into Yoshida Book Cafe, hoping her followers wouldn't make a fuss in there.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1"">Yoshida Book Cafe</div><br/><br/>""Dammit, how much time do they have?""

I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.</span> She crooked an eyebrow at the line, the words resonating with her.<br/><br/>An evil plan occurred to her right then. She flipped through the menu and looked at all the expensive things they had. She called the waiter over and placed her order. ""Oh, waiter-san, you mind billing my order to that table there?"" She grinned charmingly. ""My bodyguards will pay for my meal. Thanks!""</div>"

The one incharge of book-setup and general layout. She also helped wait the tables for him to make his job easier. He was skeptical of her ability but was slowly won over. She'd usually hang out at his place after school till Alexei came by to pick her up.<br/><br/>The bell tinkled at her entrance, today was a good day for another reason. There was a high chance that the book Alexei was looking for finally came in mail. She hadn't been there yesterday which meant that the old man may have inventorized everything himself. Walking in she noticed a crowd larger than the usual fare.<br/><br/>Yoshida's cafe was situated in such a way that not many people walked in at a time. Apart from regulars or lovebirds, it was a rare instance to have many people in the cafe. Immediately her glance fell upon the guy dressed in white with an apron round his waist.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hey! Onisan. What are you doing here?

She seemed to be aware of them and purposely avoiding their attention.<br/><br/>The woman eventually called him over, so Toma made his way to her. <font color=""#f26522"">""What can I get for you, Miss?</font> he asked with a relaxed smile. Writing down her order, he mentally noted how it was all rather expensive.

They hardly seem qualified for a job like that,""</font> he commented, a small, amused grin on his lips.<br/><br/>Before Toma could continue, another female voice suddenly addressed him, so he turned to look in its direction.

Though one did give him pause as he now stood before the door, Yoshida Book Café. What exactly had drawn his attention to this place, he didn't rightfully know; but that didn't stop him from opening the door and stepping inside the venue. To be honest, Masa didn't quite know what he was expecting, but the place was somewhat busy and nearly caused him to turn around and leave. Instead, he'd quietly take a seat near the door as he began looking over the patrons of this place.<br/><br/>	Certainly a diverse crowd, and one that seemed to demand the attention of the boy running the shop. He wouldn't make a fuss himself, rather just sitting in the back and keeping quiet. Yet, as his eyes continued to scan the shop, he couldn't help but notice a familiar figure. It was the raven-haired girl he had met nearly a week ago, but she seemed preoccupied now; so he merely shook his head with a chuckle as he returned to sizing up the rest of the occupants. It didn't take long for him to notice the waiter's gaze upon two seated not far from Masa, as his attention too would be drawn to them. They seemed to be here for a specific purpose, eyeing a rather... Elaborately dressed girl to the other side of the shop. With a brow raised in curiosity, Masa simply sat and silence and watched whatever events would unfold in this shop.</div>"

It’s nice to meet you regardless. I’m Hashimoto Sato, if you’d care to know.”</font> Sato returned his glance to the book he was thumbing through. It wasn’t particularly interesting, just a typical murder mystery with a less-than-inspiring protagonist. He set it down upside-down and picked up the other one, which title promised a more interesting story. His fingers flicked to the first page or so of Chapter 1, which detailed the childhood of a sociopathic boy who was particularly adept at solving puzzles. It seemed interesting enough.<br/><br/>	The teen reached his hand out to grab his drink, though, being a bit absorbed into the story he was reading, he wasn’t really paying attention to the actual action. It wasn’t until a high clink did Sato look up from the pages, shooting up from his seat once he realised what had happened. The scalding-hot coffee splashed away from him, the direction of the girl. Without thinking Sato lunged forward, attempting to push any books away from the spill regardless if they got caught by the splash or not. Catching the dark liquid by accident with his finger tips, the heat singed his hand and the boy snapped away from the table.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”A-ah! Oh my god I’m so sorry,”</font> Sato looked around in a fluster before remembering the waiter who’d brought them their drinks. Now was a good a time as ever for asking for his assistance. <font color=""skyblue"">”Waiter! Could you bring some towels or something?!”</font></div>"

As they finished crossing, the shadows calmed down.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""It looks like we're okay... Noboru, continue to take lead""</font>, he said, and so they did. They passed an ornate fountain as they continued through, and the withered and thorn-covered bushes and wilted flowers continued, the grass having a poisonous purple-black hue to them, even emanating a slight fog. There seemed to be shadows lurking away from the path, but they didn't act at all, and if anything seemed to stay hidden. Rui wasn't sure if this was just how the floor was, or they were waiting to strike again later.<br/><br/>As they continued down the path, they finally came to a thorn covered door, with two statues side by side. The figure here was clearer, and wearing a bikini... Rui was absolutely sure this was someone familiar. Before he could say anything though, he heard Megumi warn him over her Persona. <br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""There's big readings behind you! Two large shadows approaching!""</font>, He turned and saw larger shadows stepping onto the pavement, making sounds as they did. He didn't notice them approaching... If this was all grass and there was no support, he probably wouldn't have heard them until it was too late. It didn't look like an endless horde like before, but this time they were bigger. Two of them and they seemed to be followed by a few smaller ones similar to the ones at the entrance.<br/><br/>They had the appearance of treants, except with black rose thorns. They had a hulking figure, so they seemed to be able to take a lot of hits.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I guess we'll deal with them""</font>, he stated, readying his blade.

Noboru laughed.<br/><br/><font color=""navy"">""Haha yew poor saps are gonna be pining for mommy after i'm finished!""</font><br/><br/>Noboru ducked in, right next to them. He thought for a second.

She rested her face on one hand, leaning the elbow on the table as she spared a glance at the boys in question. They seemed smart enough to guess that she was deliberately ignoring them and her friendliness with the waiter was just pissing them off. Her prank might be lighting a powder keg at this point.

He quickly grabbed a handful of towels. A few seconds later, he was over at the table he had served not too long ago.<br/><br/>As Toma threw a towel over the liquid and started to mop it up, he looked over at the two occupying the table. Seeing the boy holding his fingers, he assumed they had been burned by the hot coffee. <font color=""#f26522"">""Go to the sink behind the counter and run your fingers under water.""</font> He glanced between the boy and the girl, wearing a reassuring smile. <font color=""#f26522"">""I'm sorry this happened, I hope you're both okay.

This was Noboru's cue to try again, who immediately did so and shattered the shadow instantly with a barrage of punches from his Persona Atlas. The previous strikes only served to push one of them back, but now he was able to deal discernible damage. Rui went right after the other one, slashing right at it. First taking it's arm as it swung towards him, before a cross slash, one horizontal and then right up, before his Persona appeared to deal the finishing blow.<br/><br/>As the treant shadows fell and turned back into black ash, Megumi informed the team.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""Looks like the door is open, those two shadows seemed to be guarding it""</font>, she stated. The team turned around to see the thorn covered door now no longer covered in thorns. The door had the words ""stairs"" on them, like an office building's emergency stairs. Rui looked at the two statues again, hoping maybe he can recognize it this time, but to no avail. He could hear some dialogue as he walked towards the exit,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Mum! Look at what I made! Isn't it pretty!?""<br/>""Huh?! I'm busy! Go annoy your father!""<br/>""Daddy! Can you-""<br/>""Damn it! Just get away!

The roses wilted, or turned eerily black, and pavement was dirty, the grass was a sickly yellow and black...<br/><br/>As the party progressed, nothing seemed to happen, until they reached the middle of a wilted hedge maze... Which wasn't much of a maze, since they could see through it all, but it was a large clearing, and if anyone's played enough RPGs, they would know this was some kind of cue. They were right.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Come here you ungrateful brat!"" <br/>""Don't you run away!

Though large, it immediately showed it was also incredibly quick, striking down at the party before anyone could properly react, forcing everyone on the back leg. Rui immediately went for a counter-attack with Cleave, but the mantis did what looked like a teleporting dash backwards. There was no way any of them had the means to strike quickly enough with that kind of speed...<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""Wow it's fast!

It definitely wasn't who he thought it was for sure.<br/><br/>They went through the hedge maze and the hedges slowly died out, the grass turning shades of vomit. The voice spoke up again, the one from before. Noboru shook his head in denial. It definitely wasn't her. No way. It wasn't a possible thing. The shadow popped up. A rainbow mantis, it seemed. They all recovered from its initial strike, rolling backwards. Noboru stepped forward to taunt the mantis.

Perhaps she will try her hand at customizing some of her own to add to her closet.

Intense pain, followed with relief was what Noboru experienced as Leiko was ready to heal anyone who got struck, the first person just happened to be Noboru.

Sato nearly stumbled back into the table, which would have likely have caused the mess to get yet larger. It took the teen a minute, but he recognized the man as a fellow third-year from Warakuma High. They’d met at Drama practice. Sato couldn’t help but remember that cigarette smell as he watched Alexai whip out some kind of powder that was apparently going to help with the scald and stain.

He brought it over and set it down on the table next to the girl, for her to soak the towel in whenever it lost most of its water. He took a step back to give her and Alexei some space, the extent of what he could do to help being done.</div>"

Something strong, preferably. It had to be someplace new, though- he'd already gone to the Cosplay Cafe multiple times in the past few weeks, and they might be getting tired of him by now.

Still, he was somewhat lacking in said other avenues at the moment, and there was always the chance that he'd find one of the rare books that really interested him. And, more to the point, coffee. He walked into the shop, and was confronted with a rather awkward scene. He winced slightly in sympathy for the girl's predicament- depending on how hot that coffee staining her clothes was, the stain itself was likely the least of her worries.<br/><br/>He recognized Sato and Alexei, helping the unfortunate girl out, though he was less certain about whether or not he knew the girl or the waiter. The girl did look familiar, though... hmm. Maybe he was just seeing correlations where they weren't there. Regardless, he should allow the staff and customers some space to get their affairs in order. He took a seat some distance away, but he still couldn't help glancing over at the debacle. One member of the group in particular.<br/><br/>He didn't understand why his mind was so fixated on Sato since the incident at the other cafe- he still felt the need to apologize for the situation that had occurred, despite his attempts to convince himself that he had nothing to apologize for, that it was that other bastard that had caused the situation to turn uncomfortable. And yet... maybe he was just... concerned? Maybe he wanted to make a show of support?<br/><br/>...Maybe he should just wait for someone to come take his order and stop fixating on people he didn't really know.</div>"

It was rather entertaining, seeing the unfamiliar faces go about their routine as they were. Though near the same age as himself, their actions felt foreign to him. How was it they had time to enjoy themselves in such a manner? Even one of them held a job here, and he was not as ragged and worn as Masahide was- even now.

The one who had called her Shizuka had several others attending to her. Why, he wasn't exactly sure, but all he could is chuckle under his breath. Still, his attention gravitated to the male from earlier, the one currently attending the others. Despite his calm and collected nature, Masa couldn't help but feel compelled to provide assistance. But how? And in what way? Seeming agitated at first, an idea came to mind... Subtle though it was, he would help. Standing from his seat, he'd reach down into the pockets of his pants as he withdrew his wallet, stepping up to the counter, he'd idly lean against it as he began taking stock of the place around him.<br/><br/>	Of course, this wasn't his true intention, as he lifted from his position. As he turned to make his way to the exit, one would be able to see some 5,000 yen upon the counter. He'd taken care to place a small coin over the bill(s) to keep it in place, finding himself walking past the scene from earlier. Idly he'd pat the red haired waiter on the shoulder, his gaze falling to Shizuka. He seemed oblivious of the events that had transpired, having zoned out shortly before everything happened. As such, he'd offer a polite bow of his head, uttering ""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">It was nice to see you again,</font>"" before heading towards the door.<br/><br/>	As he approached the door and the new comer who had entered, he'd take a moment to address the one who had taken his order earlier, ""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">Scratch that order.

His head turned towards Chiaki, and he spoke up.<br/><br/><font color=""navy"">""Listen. We're here for you. No matter what that piece of shit says, it ain't true. Relax.

The little bout of her lashing out at the men in blue had them contact her parents immediately and soon she was right back to square one: Locking herself in her room, away from the eyes of the public once more.

She misses her, it's like Ayano lost something very important to her. The very thought of it just made her curl into a ball of depression. <br/><br/>...That's what happened prior to this.

A book cafe had recently opened in the area and what better way to soothe oneself other than a good cup of coffee with a good book to match? If she's lucky, they'll have the latest volumes of the manga's she's reading.<br/><br/>Even after two cups of coffee, Ayano still couldn't get over her cousin's disappearance, sitting here and waiting obviously wasn't the right thing to do right now, but what else could she do?

A swift and sudden gust of wind blasted from the Shadow as the source, Rui managed to guard with his Persona and Garu just in time, but he wasn't sure about the rest. It seemed to have hit the back line, fortunately Matthew's Maragi defended him and Leiko, only suffering from their faces being a little heated from the wind blasting some of back at them.

Summoning Atlas for the first time in a bit to actually do something, he threw out Tarukaja, both on himself and on Rui. He bounced back on his hind foot, taking up a defensive position.

Now that Toma thought about it, the boy had come from the direction of the counter.<br/><br/>Toma smiled slightly despite himself. He raised his head and scanned the cafe for the young waitress -- Alexei's younger sister, if he had guessed correctly -- deciding that she should get the tip.

Bringing her paper bag of manga in her arm and the books and magazines she brought out of their shelves in the other arm, Shizuka approached the counter and dropped the borrowed items on the counter to be returned and money enough to pay for her milk tea with extra tip. While making her way out of the cafe, she sincerely bowed towards her new and old acquaintances, noticed Mako as she passed, before leaving the cafe.<br/><br/>________________<br/><br/>Leaving the public bathroom in Shinza Shopping Square after her little treatment of the slight burn on her thighs, she wandered aimlessly with glances left to right to check out the shops she may not have known the existence of before, like the book cafe. A message tone from her phone caught her attention, to which she instinctively reached into her purse and flipped the mobile phone open. Oh, a message from Nozomi, one of her close friends and classmate. A soft giggle escaped her lips as she read its contents.<br/><br/><font color=""#8dc73f"">Subj: Golden Week ends today ε-(ーдー)<br/>Message: I can't believe it's already Sunday! How did you spend the rest of your weekend, Shizuka-chan? I hope you haven't been slacking off too much, but knowing you, I have high hopes! Unlike Rinko-chan, she says she hasn't done any of her hw yet...

Noboru was pinned down immediately, and Leiko and Matthew are snared only up the feet, while Rui managed to avoid being immobilized thanks to Sukukaja, but still took damage due to the wide area effect.

As he was cutting them up, the vines were weakening over Noboru and the rest of the party, freeing them. Once he severed most of them the Shadow began to scream until finally it lopped over, only responding slightly.

Begrudgingly she walked towards it. It looked up at her as if all of the pain was some sort of sweet pleasure to itself. Chiaki took a deep breath. ""<font color=""#662d91"">I don't really know any of you, and none of you know the real me either.

He was barely able to mutter a 'f..fuckin hell' and that was pushing the envelope on what he could do. He felt himself blacking out, not able to move. Was this where it ended? No. The vines were either shredded or retracting. They went in for an all out attack, taking it down. Noboru huffed and puffed, so tired. He felt weak, finding it hard to stand.<br/><br/>Chiaki stepped up to accept her shadow, and she started talking. The last part of her speech struck a chord with him. He had found himself in a similar situation, and the chord rung deep in him. He missed what the shadow had to say before it disappeared, too busy in his thought. When she started to fall, Noboru acted on instinct, catching her and holding her in an awkward hold, her body vertical to his.

An opportunity, perhaps? Mako's brows knit in consternation as he considered the propriety of what it was he was considering doing. True, there was an open seat, but it was rather improper to simply walk over and invite yourself to sit down, much less when you barely knew the person in question, and EVEN LESS considering the subject matter of what it was he wanted to talk about.

Ah well, it wasn't as if every single girl in high school was just ready to experiment with dating another girl. Some of them were curious, sure, while others just knew they liked girls, like Jun did. If this girl wasn't interested, she would move on to greener pastures. Though there was no harm in going for that meal and seeing if she could add a potential cutie on her list of contacts. It would be interesting to see if she could charm the girl gay.<br/><br/>Jun saw Ayano walk over to her table, still rather fidgety and sheepish. No doubt this was even harder without her extroverted cousin to help her along. Perhaps playing the domineering senpai at the hot springs and coming on so strongly that day was a bad idea. Jun nodded in confirmation that Ayano did not have the wrong person and pushed out a chair with her foot casually. ""Come on, sit with me. Order another coffee if you like. It's on me. Or rather, it's on my fan club over there."" She spoke gently and nonchalantly, trying to drop the whole intimidating yakuza act for a while. After all, the poor girl seemed to be worried about Chiaki, so adding on to her stress wasn't going to help. Jun was a helpless flirt and hopeless deviant, but even she wasn't that insensitive.<br/><br/>""Chiaki is your cousin with the chest that has its own gravity field, right?"" Jun asked, injecting some humour in an attempt to lighten the mood. ""She's missing? That's news to me. Even my 'family' doesn't dabble in kidnapping young girls."" Jun signaled the waiter to bring another coffee for Ayano. They were underage and this wasn't a bar, so she couldn't just help Ayano drown her sorrows, but coffee would probably help. At least, having a warm cup to hold might alleviate her worry.<br/><br/>""I'm assuming you spoke to the police already, but when did she go missing?"" Jun had a strange suspicion it was shortly after they left the inn, which was why she was being asked about Chiaki by her cousin instead of the police. Nobody knew she was there except for those two and her own family. ""Well, if you need help finding her or you just need someone to talk to or somewhere to feel safe..."" Jun took a piece of napkin and scribbled down her number, sliding it across to Chiaki. ""Just let me know.""</div>"

There wasn't much to do, and nothing special seemed to happen when they reached the exit, they simply sent Chiaki home, and she was admitted to the hospital shortly afterward. If things turned out like the rest, she should be able to leave the hospital in two or three days.

The fine long table she was seated at was marvellous, various decorations told her this was a dining table. There were around twenty one chairs here too, ten on each side, with a single one at the far end. It was the man who had spoken as she arrived to consciousness in this room, whose most striking feature was his long nose, and standing beside him silently was a beautiful woman in blue with pale blonde hair. She would look down and first notice a number in front of her, 13, and letters stating, ""Death"". Immediately, she thought this incredibly ominous... Was she dead? She kept going down, and noticed she was wearing something fitting for a funeral... Well, almost. It was black, that's why she thought so immediately, and the black hat with veil also reminded her of that, but the dress itself seemed to serve formal and ball party functions. It was long, and filled with frills and flower ornaments made from purple and blue. She rather liked it.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Do not be alarmed, you are not dead. This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter, this is Henrietta, and we will be your guides for your journey""</font>, he began. As she looked down the table, she would finally notice several other figures, they were faded, and she couldn't see their faces, but in her mind she somehow knew who they were. Rui, Matthew, Noboru, Kami, and Leiko... They were the ones who rescued her.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Only those who have signed the contract may enter here. It appears you have noticed you are not the first and only guest here... They are simply not... Present, but you are all connected by a destiny, or rather... A path. As you can see, there are still many more empty seats at this table, and you will meet them all... In due time""</font>, she began to pay a bit more attention to the long nosed man as he began to shuffle a few cards, and picking one up, he showed to her... 13, Death. Like what was in front of her inscribed into the table.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""It appears you are of the Death Arcana, a brutal reality for those who still live, and an even more brutal one for those one leaves behind, but death also means change will occur, whether it to be oneself, or the world around them... For better or for worse. It appears you changed for the better, else you would not be here""</font>, what he described was... Pretty close to how Chiaki felt about the entire ordeal with her grandmother... He put the card down and motioned over to the lady beside him.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""For now, Henrietta will give you a special key, so that you may enter this room again at your own accord""</font>, as he spoke, the lady known as Henrietta strode down the table over to Chiaki, and placed a key in front of her, which Chiaki without a second thought picked up off the table.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But for now... Farewell""</font>, and with that, darkness returned to Chiaki as she faded back into the real world.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma High - Morning &gt; Afterschool<br/>4/5/2015 Monday</div></div><br/><br/>School had come the next day, there was no announcement of Chiaki's disappearance and return, but there was a stern warning about going anywhere alone in Warakuma, and to go home immediately when the sun was going down. It didn't seem to matter though, since it was gossip among the classmates about Chiaki already anyways. News travelled quickly.<br/><br/>Otherwise, everyone was reminded that midterms were coming up, and that they should study. Fortunately Rui was just about caught up on content, and if he really took the time he could probably ace it too... He wasn't so sure about that for some people he knew though... In any case, looks like a good day to relax.<br/><br/>Clubs were resuming again, and most people seemed to have had a lot of fun during Golden Week too. It wasn't too late to join a club. It might be hard to make a new club at the moment though, with exams coming up. As he expected activities today seemed more restrained to give room for students to make time to study for the upcoming midterms.<br/><br/>Chiaki was going to be in hospital for a few days, but was likely going to be allowed out before this week ends.

As much as he wanted to protest, Sato was not one to pass up a free coffee, especially while he still had a nagging caffeine craving. The teen lingered quietly at his seat, fingering the pages of the book he was reading as he sat solemnly. The drowning feeling killed his mood pretty fast, and he doubted Otonashi was particularly fond of him after their first meeting entailing him spilling coffee on her and her white dress and <span class=""bb-i"">ughh.</span> He didn’t even help. Or, rather, couldn’t. All Sato had done was get somebody else to aid this scalded girl. At least none of the books on the table got any on them. <br/><br/>	Of course, Sato didn’t show his distress. It wouldn’t be any good to make anyone feel bad. Or worse, they think he’s being pathetic.<br/><br/>	Once he was done wallowing in his own frustrating feelings, Sato looked over at Otonashi again, who was rubbing her eyes and beaming warmly. <font color=""violet"">”I-I'm truly grateful for what you've done for me, I-I hope to return them in kind if I may.""</font><br/><br/>	Sato responded with a wry smile. <font color=""skyblue"">”Don’t bother repaying what I’ve done for you. And again, I’m sorry for what I’ve done. I doubt this is what you wanted when you came here today.”</font> He rose from his seat at the table, heading off to put his books away in their original locations before grabbing his freshly prepared coffee. Otonashi left as he was picking up the drink, and he took a tentative seat back at the table as he watched her leave. He’d have to talk to her again at a later date just to iron out the lingering suspicion in his head.<br/><br/>	The young male’s attention was drawn from Otonashi’s deperature back to the café when he heard yet another familiar voice speak to him. He turned his head to look, and, to his surprise, it was Mako. The drama kid that was there on the day of… <span class=""bb-i"">the incident.</span> Sato had thought there was some kind of unspoken agreement between them that they’d never talk about it again, but he supposed that was foolish to think that would happen after such an <span class=""bb-i"">interesting</span> development. <font color=""#0076a3"">”Sato Hashimoto, yeah? You remember me? Mako Moritomi?”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”How could I forget.

After that… the thing. That one day. Last week…? Just... letting you know that, if you need to talk about it or anything, I'd be happy to just listen.”</font> While Sato was completely expecting the topic of the cross-dressing thing, what Mako actually said was a little odd. He wasn’t exactly sure what Mako was implying but regardless he didn’t like it. <br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”I’ll assure you, I’m <span class=""bb-i"">holding up</span> fine. And whatever reason you think it happened for, I can tell you now it’s likely incorrect. It was solely for monetary gain. Just… listen, just don’t mention it to me again, and especially not to anyone else. If you want to do anything for me, pretend it didn’t happen.”</font> Sato felt he was being a little unnecessarily rude, considering Mako had approached him with good intentions, but he was not in the mood for playing around by being polite.<br/><br/>	Sato took a deep breath. <font color=""skyblue"">”I think I’ll excuse myself now.”</font> And with that, he slipped out from the store, the mid-day sun glaring down at him. It was a nice day at least. He searched for a cloud in the sky, shielding his eyes from the sun with his hand, but found none. One year of Warakuma and he was off to university, back to the city. The town was starting to grow on him, but something deep down told him that his place was back in Tokyo.<br/><br/>Whatever. That kind of thing was hardly important at the beginning of one’s third year. The brunette exhaled, the coffee cup in his hand burning ever so slightly. There wasn’t anything else he wanted to do in Warakuma, so he turned to head home.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/><br/>	When Sato walked up the street to his house, he was a little surprised to see Mika walking away from it. As she was going the other way, the male quickly jogged over to her, calling her name as he did so. She turned around almost instantly and lit up a bit, clearly having business with him. “What’s up, Mika?” He asked, standing up perfectly straight.<br/><br/>	“You’ve got some real convenient timing, Sato. You could’ve come home five minutes earlier though.” She clenched whatever she was holding (some kind of package?) and gave a half-hearted smile. Sato figured whatever reason she had came by was not a very happy one. “I just wanted to make sure you’re going to practice first thing tomorrow. It’s important, so don’t skip like the last time. Got it?”<br/><br/>	Sato blinked. Important? He didn’t know what this girl was planning, but it was probably rather relevant to him (though now he was just thinking the obvious) considering she’d swung by instead of the thing a normal person would do. “Yeah, sure. I’ll try to make it. Though I need to ask, why didn’t you just text me? It’s not 1973, Mika.” Sato played with his fingers as he talked, the singe from the coffee still throbbing painfully ever so slightly. Maybe the people back at the café were right about treating it, even if it seemed superficial.<br/><br/>	“Running errands for my dad,” she held up a brown paper package, “and I just so happened to have to pass through here. Just figured, I’m already here, so why not? I probably <span class=""bb-i"">would’ve</span> texted you if you didn’t have some sixth sense for arriving when people are leaving. But I really do need to be going now, so… see ya tomorrow, Sato.” Her tone was notably serious. The male waved good-bye as Mika started walking away again. What events would transpire at the range on Monday, Sato could only guess. Now that he thought about it, it was likely something regarding Rokurou. That guy seemed to be the source of a lot of the drama going on around Sato. He took a sip of the coffee he had been holding the whole way back. It was kinda cold. Disappointed, the teen withdrew into his house.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5stt_0OpY4"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma High, Class 3-3</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 4TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Afterschool</span><br/><br/>	Sato didn’t really hate school like most of his classmates seemed to, but coming back to school after a week of freedom was still horrible. Especially when one of their teachers had given them a warning to be very careful around town when alone, and to not be out and about in the evening. Of course, they would hardly be able to enforce it, and Sato already knew people were going to ignore the message. Midterms were also coming up, which elicited internal screaming from some in the room. Sato wasn’t particularly worried about it, even if he hadn’t been studying much recently. He’d always been good at taking tests.<br/><br/>	To make matters worse, Sato had noticed some talk of a “Saki” when lunchtime had rolled around. Some of the guys had been debating various facts and opinions regarding photos that were no-doubt taken by Akira back at the café. Sato could only hope Mako would take his words to heart and not talk about it like his classmates were. Luckily nobody seemed to be on his trail yet, so there was still time to distance himself from it. How he’d do that, he didn’t know, but there had to be a way…<br/><br/>	Regardless, the bell tolled and almost everyone rushed out of their seats in a hurry to get out of their suffocating classroom. Sato, as always, waited for the crowd of students to disappear before getting up. Though, as he was putting his items in his school bag, his cellphone began to vibrate. The teen caught it before it could shimmy itself off the desk. A number he didn’t recognize was calling him.<br/><br/>	”Hello?” Sato simply answered. Except nobody replied. He was considering blocking the number when he heard a knock at the classroom’s door. Looking up, he spotted a familiar face. Naomi Chiba, was it? The self-proclaimed city girl that moved to Warakuma a month ago (apparently). “Odd way of meeting somebody, don’t you think?”<br/><br/>	The chestnut-brown haired girl was peaking out from around the corner of the doorframe, scanning the room quickly before walking inside. She held her bag behind her, carefully making her way over to Sato, who had just finished putting away his books. “I wasn’t sure if this was your homeroom or not, heh. Your friend has some pretty bad handwriting.” The male felt a bit of flush burning onto his face, but he quickly suppressed it Not cool. <br/><br/>	Sato raised an eyebrow at the comment. “He gave you my homeroom number too? How much information did he exactly give you?”<br/><br/>	“I didn’t ask for anything other than your homeroom, I swear!” Naomi fumbled a piece of paper out of her bag and showed it to Sato. On it was his phone number, homeroom, and email. A bit much for having barely known the girl, even if she seemed harmless enough. He wouldn’t have been upset if he’d never seen Naomi again, but it wasn’t <span class=""bb-i"">bad</span> that she wanted to keep in touch with him… Still, this was going a little fast.<br/><br/>	“What an ass,” Sato muttered, returning the crumpled paper back to Naomi. He leaned back onto his desk. She emulated him by doing the same with the one behind her. “Well, I can’t change what he did. Not to be rude, but what do you want with me exactly?”<br/><br/>	 “<sub>That’s a bit of an accusing way to ask it…</sub>” Naomi brushed a strange of hair behind her ear. “It’s just, I haven’t made very many friends here yet, which is a bit jarring since I was sorta popular back in my hometown, and I felt a little lonely, so I figured maybe we could be friends.”<br/><br/>	“Tokyo’s not that far away from here. I’m sure your old friends could still visit you.” Sato said, scratching behind his ear.<br/><br/>	She exhaled loudly. “Well, they <span class=""bb-i"">could</span>, but it’s a little far away for a highschooler, dontcha think? It’s better if we just stick to texting, haha.” Sato tried not to stare, but he couldn’t help but examine her face again. Now with a name and place, he recognized her a lot more. But, of course, he didn’t look too much, lest he get flustered again. “Oh, that boy gave you, uh, my phone number, right? <sub>Forgive me for being so forward…</sub>”<br/><br/>	“Huh?” Sato reached into his uniform pockets, but came back with nothing. Of course it wasn’t in there. He felt dumb for checking. Last time he remembered, he’d thrown it onto his desk all crumpled up. It should be there. “Oh, yeah. You’re good for asking, though. Knowing Rento, he probably considered keeping it for himself or something, heh.” Rento wasn’t really like that and it wouldn’t even be a smart move. Sato was just saying whatever popped into his head; this wasn’t good. It was then that the teen remembered he had archery practice after school, so he quickly grabbed his bag and stood up. “Sorry, Chiba. I’ve got to go.”<br/><br/>	Naomi nodded knowingly, standing up straight as Sato made his way to the door. “Kyuudo, right?”<br/><br/>	Sato stopped. That was weird. “How’d you know that?”<br/><br/>	“Oh that must’ve sounded creepy! I’m sorry! I only know you’re a member there because I saw you practicing there when I was scoping out the clubs here at Warakuma High. I still haven’t joined any though.” Naomi seemed a little embarrassed, understandably. “See you later, right?” She gave a happy wave good-bye as she brushed past Sato, returning to presumably her other recently made friends.<br/><br/>	Sato waited for a minute in the door frame, since she went the same way he usually took to get to the archery range and he wanted to avoid any kind of awkward post-goodbye path crossing. Or he just needed a moment to process his thoughts on this girl who basically forced her way into a friendship with him. But did she have some kind of hidden agenda? No… He shook his head, erasing the idea from his head. He’d learned his lesson about humouring that train of thought.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://youtu.be/zRhVqcfoLuI"" rel=""nofollow"">Archery Range</a></div>	Against his better judgement, Sato made his way over to the range. He really didn’t want to attend practice this particular day, but he felt obligated to, especially after what Mika had said the previous day. A nauseas feeling swept over him as he stepped inside, but he was sure it was just a weird second-guessing sensation. As he looked around, the building seemed emptier than usual. There typically weren’t <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> many people around on a typical day like this one, and it was understandable for it to be a low considering it was the first day back after the break.<br/><br/>	Still, though. Suspiciously empty. As the boy stepped onto the firing range, bow and arrows in hand, he noticed Mika and the others standing at the wall opposite to Sato, far from the only other people at the range that day. Reluctantly, he walked over to them, setting his equipment against the wall. “Did something happen here?” Sato simply inquired.<br/><br/>	Rento gave out a tired sigh, looking over to Sato, explaining the situation. “She had a spat with Rokurou before you got here and the drama got to some of the members so they left. Wasn’t how we wanted it to go but what can you do.” Sato nodded. Though, Mika seemed oddly calm despite having had an apparently feisty argument with the club president. “Not a fist fight or anything, though I got pretty close to giving that dick a black eye.<br/><br/>	“Where’d he go?” Sato asked, not sure why he felt he needed to know out of all questions he could ask. Part of him wanted to go talk to Rokurou again but he reconsidered quickly.<br/><br/>	Rento shrugged, but Mika then spoke up. “He went off somewhere with his girlfriend or whoever she is to him. Not like it matters.” She shot him a glare as if sensing he had a fleeting desire to seek the president out. The atmosphere felt too tense to continue, so Sato awkwardly stepped away from the group with his bow already notched. It didn’t take him long to get tired of firing it, so he put it away quickly and slipped out from the range again.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Sato exhaled, shaking his head ever so slightly. He didn’t really feel like wandering about Warakuma after the teachers’ warnings, so he instead decided to head over to the school’s library to study some more. It was fairly busy considering midterms were coming up very soon. Some people were diligently going over the material, while some were scrambling to get notes together. Sato set up on a table one of his classmates were at and got to reviewing. As always, the mathematics were pretty much a breeze for him, and he was quickly onto the next subject. The teen fished around in his school bag for his textbook, but he frowned when he couldn’t find the one he needed. This was… problematic.<br/><br/>	Sato got up from his table and scanned through one of the aisles for something to use in place for the missing textbook. While it was still an issue that he wasn’t using the intended source, he was confident he could get the same result with any other book. It wasn’t like the textbooks made up all of biology. It took him a couple minutes but he finally located a suitable replacement in the midst of a bookcase He went to withdraw it from its home in the wall of books, but, and he wasn’t sure how it happened, almost the entire line of books the text was in came out with it. He tried to catch them and not make a commotion, but he only ended up crumpling to the floor with them (albeit quieter than it would have). What a mess. He didn’t even know which books were where as he started trying to put the pile of literature back in their rightful places. <span class=""bb-s"">A helping hand would be nice.</span></div>"

A content nod followed when that was indeed the case before she had to stifle a sudden yawn - she'd stayed up longer than she'd anticipated the night before. She wanted to say it wasn't her fault, but she knew it really was - but whenever a book got particularly interesting, she found it rather hard to just put down. After all, a good mystery couldn't just be left off to the next day. As other students started to enter the classroom - Kotori having been somewhat early - she looked up, though most were either chatting away with friends, preoccupied with their phones or wearing a downright disgruntled face at the prospect of school after a whole week of freedom. Still, she did give a thankful nod in greeting as the sight of one of her classmates, Akane, reminded her of the incident in the Amusement Park a few days ago.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | After School</span><br/><br/>As the bell signalling the end of classes for the day rang, the usual chaos erupted in the classroom as most rushed out to meet up with their friends to discuss the happening of the last week, to head over to their respective club room or to simply head home after a tiring day. And, much like usual, a few took things a little more slowly - such as Kotori who was finishing up her note-taking before packing her books back in her bag. Looking up and around the classroom, most of the immediate hustle and bustle had died down by now, making it a lot easier to walk in the hallways without having to somehow navigate through the masses of onrushing students. Pushing up her glasses that had slightly slid down from her continuous downward gaze toward her books, she set off - though not homeward, but rather toward the Agriculture Club room.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club | After School</span><br/><br/>Standing in front of the door to the Agriculture Club room, she watched a pair of chatting students walk down a hallway. She'd passed them on the way and caught a brief bit of their discussion - which had been a similar topic to what she'd heard some others speak about during breaks. Apparently there had been another case of a missing student - though no one seemed to know any particular details as there hadn't been any announcement to that effect but rather a general warning about going home alone or staying out late. Kotori wondered if it happened to have anything to do with the panicked girl at the mall that she'd seen some days ago - but without knowing anymore, there was little that she could do but put the thought aside with a sigh.<br/><br/>Knowing there was little point to mulling over it, Kotori raised a hand to lightly knock against the door before entering the room with a small <font color=""green"">""Pardon the intrusion""</font> as she glanced about. Unsurprisingly, the clubroom showed much the expected sight with no one but Matt being about, the older boy currently busy with watering the many flowers about the room. <font color=""green"">""Ah...""</font> she was just about to speak up in greeting when the club president gave a small chuckle, seemingly to himself. Kotori blinked in confusion at that, seeing as there was no one else about - but shook her head quickly. <font color=""green"">""Good afternoon, Harvester-senpai,""</font> she said in her usual quiet tone as she set her school bag down, any pauses in the pronunciation of the foreign name being markedly shorter than the first few times.<br/><br/>Seeing as he was already doing the rounds with watering the plants, Kotori remained standing, a little unsure about what was left to do for an Agriculture Club member.</div>"

But moving the topic to the hospitalization of Chiaki Nettu, one of the class' popular students, the teacher announced that 'Get well soon' gifts may be collected tomorrow homeroom period to be brought to her if anyone wished to do so. With how obvious the transition of topics was, the students put two and two together to figure out that the warning and Chiaki being in the hospital were connected. While a bunch of the male population of the class were heart broken to hear their idol brought to the hospital, others such as Shizuka worried about the well being of their classmate. Maybe buying her a basket of fruits would be appropriate for a gift, Shizuka noted to herself.<br/><br/>Once the end of class bell rang throughout the campus, the raven haired girl bid her two friends farewell as she wanted to drop by the Agriculture Club to turn in the club application form, as she had promised Matt last weekend. With a filled up form in her school bag, she paced nervously along the hallway towards the club room. This was the first club she was to join in her high school life, was she going to enjoy it? Are the people going to be as friendly as Kotori and Matt? What if her knowledge for plants isn't sufficient enough for her to join the club? Well, it was better to try and find out, rather than giving up on the go.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A deep breath, in... and out...</span> Before Shizuka slid the door before her and entered into the Agriculture Club room.

For other girls or people in general, sitting with another girl in a place like a cafe' would virtually mean nothing, but for her...It was more than enough to instill feelings of awkwardness inside the girl, she could swear other people were giving them the look or assumed they were dating. Her tense mood did lessen when Jun spoke of free coffee, this was her fourth one this day! Either she's going to be twitchy all day and not be able to sleep tonight, or she's going to be staying in the bathroom for a very long time. Ayano grunted at the fan club Jun mentioned and did not even dare to look at them.<br/><br/>The poor attempt at humor...was mediocre at best, warranting a disinterested look on Ayano's face. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Yes...You better not be getting any ideas.""</font></span></span> She groaned, maybe this wasn't the best idea after all? She was starting to regret this little rendezvous with the Yakuza girl, but it would seem that even they don't stoop that low.

Another possible suspect that came to her mind was the cult...There had been cases of missing persons before Chiaki. There was that Noboru, some Harvester kid, the drama (club) queen Leiko...Could they be behind some sort of mass kidnapping? What for?

She stayed there, not saying anything more, a blank look on her face. She only snapped back to reality when Jun gave her...Her phone number? Ayano wasn't sure how to feel after the entire encounter...<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#fff200"">Warakuma High</font></span></div><br/>Another day goes by with Chiaki's absence and Ayano could swear she was getting worse. There was no updates on whether or not she's still missing or they've finally found her (or her corpse). This state of mind was not the ideal one to have when midterms were coming up, she wasn't exactly confident over the prospect, but she knows she could do above average than most, and if she took the time and effort to actually do research and face a textbook for once...She might actually pass with flying colors, but when your cousin's missing and you're the last person she was seen with, it all adds to the stress of life.<br/><br/>As the classes finished, a smell speck at the back of Ayano's mind was calling out to her...Something something club...Clubs? She wasn't in one, was she? There was a long pause as Ayano sat in thought.

She would occasionally bump into someone or into the usual teacher, at which point she would stop in her tracks in order to greet them or apologize to them.<br/><br/>After a few minutes of running around the halls like the Flash, Ayano was panting and almost out of breath from the intensity of it all. But she was there, right at the front door of the club room, she even remembered when that big guy was there, although his name had escaped her...Shrugging the minute detail off, she opened the club room to find a new face...Well, new in terms not having seen them before. She cast a glare to the boy who looked like he was looking to join. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Umm...Sorry if I haven't been attending recently""</font></span></span> she said to the entire presence of the room, giving a slight bow to them.</div>"

At first his focus was on his own unease, being around so many people he had never met and the awkwardness he felt. It wasn't often that he found himself in the middle of crowds, having made it a point to spend most of his time alone in his work or studies. Still, it wasn't all bad... He met a familiar face, and actually did something helpful for someone who hadn't asked for it. The thought brought a meager smile to his lips, though fading rather rapidly. His eyes flickered about the class as he took stock of his usual classmates; noting that the girl from the brutal brawl was among them. <br/><br/>	'How can one draw that much attention to themselves? And for something so stupid as a fight?' His thoughts echoed in his own mind, turning his gaze away and back to the front of the class, 'Is she not embarrassed? There are far better ways to draw attention to yourself.' Shaking his head with a subtle sigh, he'd attempt to dismiss the thoughts. He sat silently through the rest of the class, his attention never wavering from his teacher or his papers until the final bell had rung. Packing away his supplies in his satchel, Masa wasted no time in preparing his departure. Soon, he'd be among those in the kendo club, and have his chance to unwind.<br/><br/> <br/><br/> <br/></div>"

However, before he could speak up, the door opened again, causing both Matt and Kotori to turn their gaze toward the person entering the room. The girl seemed familiar immediately - and just a moment later, Kotori remembered where and when she'd seen the girl. She hadn't been wearing her uniform back at the Flowershop, but the long hair - particularly the way it covered half her face - was undoubtedly that of Shizuka Otonashi.<br/><br/>As the girl stepped toward Matt whilst clutching a piece of paper, she seemingly missed Kotori who was standing off to her side - who guessed the girls intentions even as she bowed before handing what turned out to be a club application form over; her voice not exactly brimming with confidence. Perhaps that just was in her nature rather than being out of her element, Kotori pondered as she remembered their previous meeting - before a thoughtful expression crossed her face when she furthermore remembered the sight of tears flowing down Alexei's face that day. She hadn't seen the older boy since then - though as she thought about it, it was hardly proper to just outright ask about such a thing.<br/><br/>Putting those thoughts off, Kotori blinked in surprise when she heard her name being spoken - as Matt both returned her greeting and perhaps noted her presence unto Shizuka. Bowing quickly - both in greeting to Matt and Shizuka and as a small apology for not having paid attention due to her thoughts wandering - she gave a wry half-smile at Matt's words. Indeed, up until now they had been the only two club members - or at least the only ones who actually showed up, given that she'd never seen anyone else in the room since she'd joined. Matt didn't really seem to worry about it though, given the way he laughed his own words off. Though they were already acquainted from a few days ago, Kotori nonetheless repeated her previous bow before giving her introduction: <font color=""green"">""Ah, I'm Kotori Shirohane from Class 2-2,""</font> Whilst they were acquainted, she hadn't actually known that Shizuka also attended the same school, after all.<br/><br/>Once introductions were done, Matt turned toward the girls again - and addressed the question Kotori had asked herself just moment earlier. He explained that he wanted to try to find different agricultural methods to make things grow - and, judging by his intentions, not just flowers but also, as per the club's name, agricultural produce. Kotori blinked in surprise at that - both the goal and the tone seemed somewhat of a more serious note than she'd expected from the boy who seemed so easy-going all the time. Seemingly only remembering then, he went on to ask the two of them what they wanted; perhaps feeling a little guilty to just push his ideas on them.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah, I... don't know how much I can help, but, uhm, I think all three options sound good?""</font> she said, though it sounded almost like a question toward the end when she realised, even whilst she was speaking, that she really didn't know all that much. Of course she knew how to plant flowers and how to tend to them to make sure they grew and blossomed - but certainly that was rather basic and not what he was looking for. Still, she wanted to at least be of some help - even whilst she nervously fidgeted with the hem of her skirt when she noticed the eyes of both of the other two club members on her. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, w-what do you think, Otonashi-san?""</font> Kotori quickly asked, passing Matt's question along to the First Year.</div>"

He went to continue the conversation, but stopped himself, remembering that he was a waiter and had a job to do. <font color=""#f26522"">""So I'm sure I'll see you around. Let me know if you need anything else, Himura-san.""</font> With that, he went off. <br/><br/>Finding himself with a moment to spare, he brought Jun's receipt to the two boys that had apparently been following her around. He stepped up to them with a bright smile plastered on his face, laying the piece of paper in front of them as he reached through the pouch full of money he wore to make change. The two stared at it for a moment, glancing up to him in confusion.<br/><br/>""This isn't ours--"" one of them began, but was swiftly cut off by Toma.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Wow, it sure is nice of you guys to pay for such an expensive meal.

""Come on, let's just go,"" he said, pulling on the other.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Hm, you aren't paying for the lady? And you aren't ordering anything for yourselves?""</font> Toma continued, ever patronizing. <font color=""#f26522"">""A shame. Please come again when you have the chance!""</font><br/><br/>The door closed behind them, and Toma looked over at Jun, a mock look of confusion on his face as he exaggeratedly shrugged his shoulders again.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Later on, after the impressive crowd in the store had gone and Toma was getting ready to head home, he turned to Alexei and his sister. <br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Thank you both for the help, I would've had some trouble taking care of the store myself today,""</font> he said gratefully, before reaching into his pocket and pulling out the 5,000 yen tip that had been left on the counter earlier. <font color=""#f26522"">""Here you go, Miss, one of the customers you served left this,""</font> he said with an easy smile as he held it out to the younger female.<br/><br/>After changing into his regular clothes, he gave a short good-bye and was off.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>The good mood Toma had been in thanks to the nice day he'd had had been ruined the moment he stepped back into his house. He found his mother on the couch, having a crying fit -- something that occurred every now and again since Taiki had passed. Keeping himself smiling despite the cloud that had formed over his head, he comforted her as best he could, and had gotten her off to her room to sleep. All while his father hid away behind his office door, working the night away.<br/><br/>Toma spent the next hours staring at his computer, trying and failing to get his mind off his mother's breakdown and Taiki. Hearing his stomach growl, he got up and tip-toed down the stairs, both his parents now asleep given the late hour. He opened the fridge and stared inside, looking for anything easy to eat.<br/><br/>The boy's eyes stopped on a pack of beer, tucked away in the back-corner of the fridge. He had never drank alcohol alone, just for the sake of drinking it. But the urge to do so was taking hold of him right now. He looked over his shoulder slowly, for no real reason.<br/><br/>'Drink his sorrows away.' Apparently he could do that with alcohol. But he had no sorrow to get rid of. He wasn't like his parents, who were unable to get over Taiki's death and dealing with it in their own, stupid ways. He was stronger than them. He had no sorrow. At least not enough to want to drink it away. <br/><br/>So, if asked, he wouldn't be able to answer why he was taking a sip of the cheap beer.<br/><br/>He only realized after the second sip what he was doing. Anger and disgust immediately flared up inside him, his brow furrowing violently. He whipped through the kitchen and out the front door, yelling into the night as he tossed the nearly-full can. It hit the tree in his front yard heavily, bouncing off and spinning wildly in the air before landing on the ground. As the liquid spilled out, Toma walked up to it with heavy steps, raising his foot and bringing his heel down on the can as hard as he could, again and again, panting out in fury every time.<br/><br/>Long after the aluminum had been completely flattened into the ground, Toma relented, backing off and using the tree to balance himself as his anger receded, crushing guilt taking its place. He may have only taken two sips, but he had thought about drinking himself into a coma, like a pathetic, disgusting, worthless alcoholic. Like a weak person. <br/><br/>And he had no idea why he had considered it; he had no sorrow.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>The first day back at school hadn't been the greatest. Toma had foregone any sort of sleep the night before or breakfast in the morning, and upon arriving at school, had quickly learned about Chiaki and had realized he had completely missed a kidnapping, much to his irritation. He did his best to focus during class, but of course had a hard time in his condition. A small consolation was that his right hand was now usable for writing notes again.<br/><br/>When classes were done, Toma decided that enough was enough -- he absolutely had to find out more about the kidnappings. He had to find one of the ones who had been victims of the incidents, and it didn't matter if it was Noboru, Hamada, Harvester, or this Chiaki girl. After a moment's deliberation, he decided to head to the library -- due to exams, many students would be spending time studying there, making it somewhat likely that he could find one of the kidnapping victims.<br/><br/>Before that, he made his way to his Track club, spinning a tale for Arata to explain why he had to leave early. After a little while, he left the field and changed.<br/><br/>A few minutes later, the red-haired boy was stalking around the library, keeping an eye out for any of the people he was looking for. What caught his attention, however, was a muffled crashing noise.<br/><br/>Blinking in confusion as he looked around, Toma stepped around a large shelf of books and poked his head into the aisle, spotting the boy who had spilled his coffee the day before getting up off the ground and picking up several books that had presumably fallen. Huh. This guy appeared to be a little clumsy.<br/><br/>Toma stepped down into the aisle. <font color=""#f26522"">""You seem to be a little accident-prone,""</font> he said, amused, as he crouched down to grab some of the books. The red-haired boy quickly looked over the other as he stood up, before turning to the shelf and eyeing the books, figuring out where they went. <font color=""#f26522"">""You look okay, but I'll ask anyway,""</font> he said with a small smile and raised eyebrows, glancing at the third-year student and shelving a book.</div>"

Well he did better than he thought, a little too much because he didn't know the results would be made known to the world. Okay scratch that he knew, but he assume the winner and runner up would be made known not literally everyone's ranking. So he spent a lovely few days being put under watch from his parents who found out such results. Who knew they wouldn't be thrilled that their son told them one thing then did another? Then again he did go there to watch not participate, come to think about it how did he participate?  So pretty much he got grounded, and as such was told he was only allowed out for school and anything that they instructed their servants or themselves to do. Was he allowed to do stuff? Yes he was, however was it fun? No it was not.<br/><br/>So a few days went by of a hell only a parent who would want the best for their child, a knowledgeable one. So in class Sieg would look less than amused at pretty much every single class, he spent Golden week learning and now he spent today learning. He would then spend the afternoon learning with his families servants coming out in different intervals to teach him. Now normally he would be bored with it, but he was more so worried for he knew how they acted and what they did to teach him. They went to far into character, quite a bit..... all the time. So when class ended he delayed standing up and walking to the school's entrance where he stood speechless at what laid before him. It was his families Limo and one of his tutors dressed in a robot suit waving at him. Sieg would sigh to himself as he sheepishly walked to the limo where the man in the suit was currently doing the robot dance. <font color=""#aba000"">""Hello mast-""</font> Sieg would hold up a hand and just get into the Limo where the robot man would commit to his part and even get into the Limo like a robot.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Today we are going to a museum...OF SCIENCE!""</font> Robot man would say to which Sieg sighed but in relief this time. <font color=""#8882be"">""Of course we are.... wait a second you guys didn't do what I think you guys did did you?""</font> Sieg would ask but receive no response until they got there where he would see that he was correct. His family got the place to allow his tutor to go around the entire building teaching him and a bunch of other people. This wouldn't be so bad, yet they did have a big sign with a caption of special lecture by Robot Man from the Kasumi's, to freaking promote it! So Sieg would have to walk through the exhibits which would be more enjoyable with silence, yet would have to listen to his tutor dressed as a robot who was still doing the robot dance. To make matters worse instead of getting called sir or boy, he was called young master so everyone would instantly know he was a part of the Kasumi household. He was certain he heard a child laughing at him. <font color=""#598527"">'Laugh all you want little boy, I'll laugh my ass off to when I deport you.</font>' Sieg would think to himself before going on to answering more questions. Then came the dreaded moment he feared, they came to a robot presentation and was asked how do robots dance. Yet of course telling was out of the question, he had to show it. Sieg's face would redden as he walked forward and removed the robots mans head and put it on himself. <font color=""#598527"">""I have to commit right?""</font> Was the only thing he said before he started doing the robot dance, shockingly doing it better than the tutor was doing. Which of course had the tutor taking notes while everyone clapped to Siegs performance.</div>"

Well, they hadn't paid the bill, so Jun just giggled. She signaled to Tanaka that she'd pay it herself and turned her attention back to Ayano. ""Well, I hope they find her soon."" She offered the girl a smile and got up to leave, before heading right to the counter to pay for her order. On second thought, she should have anticipated those guys would just walk out and leave her to pay for all this herself. Oh well, they were to her taste anyway, so she didn't mind splurging a little. She left a small tip for Toma before saying goodbye to both of him and Ayano. ""See you two in school, I guess.""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1"">Warakuma High School</div><br/><br/>When Jun returned to school at the end of Golden Week, the whole school was buzzing with rumours of how the idol Chiaki had been found after going missing for days. Mostly it was the boys who were planning to go down and visit her and use the time as an excuse to kind of get close to her. Or, closer than they normally would be able to, at least. ""How simple-minded."" Jun commented under her breath as she gazed out the window from her seat while trying to tune out their discussion on finding Chiaki's hospital room.<br/><br/>Come to think of it, there were several people from the school who had gone missing recently. Weren't they all victims of the cultists or something like that? There was some rumours about that going around too. If the sickos were targeting high school students... Jun's face turned to a frown as she pondered the possibility that her father might get dragged into protecting the school under the request of desperate parents or something and end up tightening her leash.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>The lessons were dull, as usual. It wasn't that the teachers were droning on about the subject material without pause, but rather nobody in class was interested in paying attention. They all wanted to know about Chiaki. Seeing as how some of them probably thought criminal activity might be involved, the blonde girl thought it best to keep a low profile. If Ayano had suspected her just from a brief meeting at the hot springs, thing would be a lot worse if everyone else thought she had something to do with it as well. Not that they'd say it to her face, but she didn't exactly want to give them more ammunition either.<br/><br/>So she decided that instead of wasting her time, she'd actually attend club practice for once. If there was one place nobody would talk shit about her, it was the school dojo where she would have plenty of weapons within reach. Jun headed straight for her locker in the gym, standing in the corner of the girls' changing room where she was out of sight of everyone else. While it wasn't a big secret that she had a dragon tattoo on her back, she didn't exactly like showing it off and confirming that yes, she was ""branded"" like all yakuza were.<br/><br/>Being the first in the dojo had its perks, and before anyone could catch a glimpse of her back, Jun was geared up and already practicing on her own against the training dummies.</div>"

Sato quickly gave up on getting it right, since it wasn’t like it mattered that much, and shoved the two books onto the shelf. Straightening his back out, Sato looked over to that person that had approached him. To his surprise, it was the waiter from the book café. <font color=""#f26522"">You seem to be a little accident-prone.”</font> The red-haired boy said, picking up a few of the books to help out. <font color=""#f26522""> “You look okay, but I'll ask anyway.”</font><br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”I suppose you’re right. As of late, at least.”</font> The teen picked up another textbook from the floor. Sato was trying hard to recall the waiter boy’s name from when he had introduced himself back at the café. While the red-head’s given name escaped him, Sato at least remembered the surname the guy had used to introduce himself with. <font color=""skyblue"">”I’m fine, of course. Thanks for asking. If I remember correctly, you’re Tanaka, from the café? I’m Hashimoto Sato. I figured you would be a student here.”</font><br/><br/>	While there wasn’t <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> much of a mess anyway, the books were quickly put away back to their (hopefully) original positions, minus the one text Sato had actually needed. In a weird mixture of procrastination and not wanting to just leave after having met Tanaka again, he decided to bring up the topic that had the students abuzz with rumors and questions. <font color=""skyblue"">”You’ve obviously heard of the kidnappings, correct? I haven’t been following it very much, but the latest victim was that idol girl that moved here, right? This whole thing’s pretty weird. From what I hear, the police have no idea where they had been taken or anything.”</font> While he wasn’t lying about how he wasn’t on top of the news, it was a popular subject amongst the guys he sat next to and getting the latest tid-bits about it proved easy enough.<br/><br/>	Thinking about it, he realized he actually knew all of the victims to some extent. It’d been impossible to not know Hamada, the drama club president, was one of the victims. He knew Noboru, an acquaintance at best, had been missing as well, and while he had only met her once or twice, Sato remembered talking to Chiaki Nettu as one of Noboru’s friends once or twice. That Harvester guy that was in his class was also one of the victims, having been missing for a week or however long it was. He was almost embarrassed to admit he hadn’t really noticed at all.<br/><br/> <font color=""skyblue"">”It’d really suck to get into that kind of trouble with mid-terms right around the corner. I hope they’re all alright.”</font> Of course, news about them post-kidnap was pretty scarce. Sato assumed they were all okay since there wasn’t any talk of injuries or anything (and that he knew Harvester was fine, seeing as he had returned to school seemingly unscathed). <font color=""skyblue"">”That Harvester guy’s in my class, actually.

She wrapped her hands around him and soon they began to move again. To Alexei who carried heavy beams and equipment almost daily. His sister didn't weigh more than a feather. But Elena's eyes were moistening a bit. She didn't know why she acted this way, why was she testing him but it seems her brother would never say no to her demands. She felt a pang of sadness as a few stray tears roll down her eyes.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'I better grow up soon and marry.'</span> she thought to herself, that was the only way to not burden her dear elder brother.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma high</div><br/><br/>The Golden Week was finally over and many good things had happened over the week to keep the classmates gossiping but Alexei was rather surprised to learn of another kidnapping. This time of a girl who was a known face among the kids here with him. She was some sort of idol. Alexei remained focused on the lessons that slowly passed by. The day was rather dull and dreary but he had remained in thought.<br/><br/>'<span class=""bb-i"">There has to be some relation.</span>' The kidnappings had a few similarities but many differences. They all had involved people getting abducted and then left near their home. They also didn't have any physical injuries or mistreatment. All the kids had made a surprisingly fast recovery. Plus, they weren't target a particular sex. It was a bit dumbfounding. Alexei had thought of asking Matt about the circumstances of his disappearance but had decided against it.<br/><br/>In the end he had decided to just practice with his two friends at the gym. There was no drama club today, nor he had done the sketches for the manga strip he was planning, so it didn't seem like he had any pressing matters to address. Thus a tough practice would put his mind at ease. He practiced for a few hours before packing up and leaving for work. He dropped Inoue at her home asking her to be careful. He then went to work, there was a site he had to visit regarding faulty wiring.</div>"

Coming back to her senses when she woke up Monday morning to the realization that she had to go back to school, she sigh'd the sighs of all sighs and face palmed when she remembered she forgot to study. Midterms are coming up after all, but Akane wasn't particularly worried about them. It was more having to waste her precious time, which could be spent drawing, reading and playing, on something as tedious as midterms. Having remembered that, she was reminded that she literally go no drawing, reading and playing done during Golden Week. <br/><br/><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""All thanks to that bastard....""</span></font> she grumbled as she recalled her brawl in the mall with Noboru. Word of her actions and involvement have already spread around, which isn't surprise considering the size of Warakuma and all, as evidence by the gossiping and stares that have followed her throughout the day. Well, It's not like she has anything to worry about. Considering she frequently gets into fights delinquents (or simply overly aggressive guys) for the sake of others (mostly girls, which has earned her that irritating 'prince' monkiker. Not her fault that it's mostly girls who are usually in the need of help the most), she has a reputation for helping out others, so all in all, it's most likely Noboru to get the brunt of the negative backlash for the fight. At that thought, Akane snickered as her train of thought is broken by the sound of the bell.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Finally! Classes are over. How I hate Mondays....</span> Who does? Collecting her things, she slung her bag over her shoulder and left the classroom, making her way to the clubroom. She was looking forward to heading to the room and finishing up the game she has been deprived of for a week now. Plus, she got a new game and has been wanting to play it. She has a lot to make up after that week. Opening the door to the room, she marched it, tossed her bag into the corner, pulled out her handheld and slumped into throne of comfy pillows she made by the window. Being engrossed in her game and with her earphones in, so as not to disturb anyone and to hear the games sound as loud as possible, she didn't hear the door open nor the one who opened it. <br/><br/>After a couple of minutes, she came across a save point and finally noticed the newcomers shadow. Looking up, sure enough, someone was standing there. By the looks of him, he didn't look all that interested in the club but you never know. Considering the club's state before the influx of people joining and how people look upon anime and manga, if there was no intention of joining, why bother coming here of all places? Saving her game, she set her psp on her lap and pointed to a try to his right. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""If you're interested in joining, the form is right there. When finished, turn it into me whenever.""</span></font> She finished in a monotonous tone. <br/><br/>Normally she'd be full of energy and smiles when someone comes into the room, but after being deprived of her way of life for a whole week, she just really wanted to get back to playing her game.

When he saw a group of guys at lunch holding a picture of said maid 'Saki' and looking at it with googly eyes, It took Akira all he had to hold back his laughter. He wondered how Sato taking it and thought it was a shame he wasn't there to see the initial reaction. Akari did well spreading the pictures around to have it at this extent already. After all, it was meant to be a slow building process, for the great entertainment possible. <br/><br/>As the bell, signaling the end of classes, rang, he took his sweet time leaving the classroom and making his way down to the range. Though, by the time he arrived at the range, he would come to regret taking his time. Why? Because after some investigating, it seemed Rokurou and Mika got into it and a lot of drama ensued. <font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b"">""Still trouble in paradise, huh?""</span></font> he said to no one in particular. The situation between those two seems to be getting worse by the day. Prep done, he lined up and began firing off a few arrows. After every few hits, he glanced around and noticed Sato but seemed to be preoccupied with other things to notice he was there. Given the current atmosphere at the range, ""Saki"" was probably the last thing on everyone there minds. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, no matter.</span><br/><br/>Firing off a few more arrows, an idea hit him. Maybe he can take advantage of the situation between Rokurou and Mika to have a little fun with 'Saki'.

Once his ambition part of the speech ended with a cough, Shizuka lightly clapped her hands together at the plan with excitement at her first experience of club activity. These sort of things might not have mattered to an ordinary student but the shy maiden appreciated the little things she could do with classmates and friends, due to her timid nature being in the way to suggest or invite people to have activities together with her. Since she was fairly new and had almost to none knowledge of agriculture, she wondered how they were to start cultivating the piece of land they were given.<br/><br/>Shizuka was lost in thought before the upperclassman spoke up again, this time inquiring from the two girls what sort of club activities they preferred to do. As the question was passed onto herself from Kotori, she paused for a moment while lifting her gaze up in a thoughtful gesture to think before parting her lips to reply in a similarly unsure tone like the other member. <font color=""violet"">""Umm...

The club president was in the room as well, heavily engrossed in a game. She was astonished to see that it was a PSP, finding it hard to believe that it's still roaring and popular in Japan, but pretty much dead in the West. The Vita does seem like it's popularity is waning, with only a few titles actually being noteworthy. Although, she herself preferred the 3DS.

The freshman nodded in agreement with a light smile of her own, feeling a similar sentiment to the upperclassman. It <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> her first club in high school, at least some excitement was expected. Perhaps, it might even be a step forward to overcome her timid nature!<br/><br/>After a brief discussion on what the club could start on during the next club session, including the preparation of the given land for cultivation, the club was dismissed. Shizuka had originally hoped there could have been a few more new people to meet in the club but figured it was better this way, being a little more comfortable with acquaintances she had met previously. When farewells were bid and they all separated to their own ways, the raven haired student headed home.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Otonashi Residence || May 6 WED: Evening</div><br/>Arriving home from a long day at school, followed by her part time job at Star Drop Cafe, Shizuka settled her belongings down in her room before walking along the corridors of the family mansion, heading towards the dining room. A servant stationed at the door to the room bowed as she pushed the door open for her young mistress. The scenery before Shizuka caught her in surprise: <span class=""bb-i"">both her father and mother were home, and eating together for once</span>. No, they are not in ill terms with each other, but... Both of them were always too caught up in their own respective jobs that it was either one of them was home or neither, the latter at most times.<br/><br/>Feeling joy at this rare occasion, Shizuka paced towards the edge of the long table where the two dined and greeted with a gentle curve upon her lips. <font color=""violet"">""Good evening father, mother! What a delight to see both of you home for once.""</font> She took a seat at the chair across her mother, as one of the servants organized utensils on the dining table mat before her. The youthful mother, who Shizuka inherited most of her physical traits from, responded first with a mature yet bright tone, <span class=""bb-b"">""My, my, we have the whole family on the dining table after such a long while! I wouldn't mind getting used to this. So how has school been treating you lately?""</span> She inquired, before rolling a small amount of pasta and elegantly placing it into her mouth. The solemn, bespectacled father, with the same hazel eyes as his daughter, quietly yet firmly inserted his comment into the topic. <span class=""bb-b"">""Is it not nearly exam week for your school? I have been informed by patients from the same school, asking for medical certificate as proof to be exempted from classes for a couple of exam days. Some of their conditions... are not as bad as they claim to be. Skipping exams I suppose, unethical children these days...""</span> He muttered the last statement to himself in a frustrated tone as his middle finger readjusts the position of his glasses before returning to the utensil he held.<br/><br/>It was nice to have such a small talk over the dining table with one's family, Shizuka rarely experienced such so she would appreciate each time she was able. It momentarily caused her to forget the loneliness she experienced every time she had eaten alone, and no doting mother or father to check what she was up to in her room. Her share of pasta had arrived but before digging in, she parted her lips to reply to what her parents had said,<font color=""violet"">""Ah yes, father is right. I've been studying from time to time inbetween breaks from classes and the little time before work. Preparation for the exams aside, I joined a club--""</font><br/><br/>Before having the chance to finish her statement, a servant came bursting in and hurried to her father's side, <span class=""bb-b"">""Sir! An emergency call from your hospital just came in, they require your immediate assistance! A traffic accident just occured involving more or less a dozen victims. We shall ready your car, sir.""</span> With how dire the situation seemed to be, the bespectacled doctor had no choice but to leave immediately without finishing his meal. <span class=""bb-b"">""Forgive me, but I must go. Enjoy the rest of your meals and a pleasant evening to the both of you.""</span> With that, he was gone. As if on cue, after a small sip of her wine, a grandfather clock rings as the mother glances up from her drink to the time it displayed. <span class=""bb-b"">""Oh my, is that the time already? I'm sorry Shizuka, my darling, but my flight to Osaka for the fashion conference is but a mere hour away. Please take care of yourself for me and I'll be calling you once I arrive, alright? Farewell for now!""</span><br/><br/>.......... What was Shizuka expecting? One way or the other, it usually ended up this way: being alone. But she was an obedient child, she knew her parents worked hard for her sake and for other people's sake. She never complained then, nor will she now. Even then... Maybe she had hoped for an ordinary family like any other, eating meals together, watching television together, going on outings together, any normal family activity. This was the reason she succumbed to the dark world of otaku (or so others say) in the first place.<br/><br/>After quickly finishing her meal, Shizuka returned to her personal room filled with all the manga, anime DVDs, and otome games any otaku would die for. Picking up the handheld console in her hand, a little droplet fell onto the unlit screen. <span class=""bb-i"">Just where did it...?</span> Streams of tears trickled down the surface of her cheeks. But why? This was nothing new to her yet... Why did tears fall? Attempting to control the flow of tears with rubs against her eyes, it was futile. Before long, the tears became uncontrollable, Shizuka continued to quietly weep in the painful silence of the Otonashi residence.</div>"

He groaned, not bothering to lift his face from the pillow he was sleeping on. The girl pushed herself onto her side and shook Rokurou a bit to wake him up. Silently, he rolled onto his back and looked over at his companion, eyes only half open. “I need to get home soon.”<br/><br/>	The third-year scratched at his jaw. “Why? I thought you said your parents weren’t coming home?” Rokurou replied, dreading the idea of getting out of the warm nest of blankets. Plus, he didn’t remember where he’d tossed his clothes and finding those would be an awkward adventure in the dark.<br/><br/>	“Sorrryyy… I forgot my dad got back before school…” She ran her fingers across the male’s chest, for no real reason. It was almost counter-productive, in a way. Rokurou stretched his arms above his head, letting out a yawn as he did so. With a grumble he dragged himself out of bed and stumbled blindly forward. Though he was still in the buff, he didn’t make any effort to cover himself. There wasn’t any reason to, in his eyes.<br/><br/>	“Alright, just lemme find my pants…” Rokurou said, right before bumping into the drumset in the corner, a loud clamoring cringingly resulting. It took him a while but he did eventually find his jeans, pulling them on swiftly as soon as his hands found the denim.

Hopefully it wasn’t long-term damage or anything.<br/><br/>	Sato looked over at his study partner. Naomi was hard at work, writing down neat notes after looking at the page for a bit. He still hadn’t gotten over that phase where his face would start burning a bit if he looked at her soft features for too long. Even the light brown bedraggled head of hair she had at the moment was enough to trigger the painful blush. The girl across the table kept shooting him glares and he’d try to return to studying each time to no avail. Sato eventually ended up just staring at the textbook like he’d absorb just by watching the writing long enough even though he was busy in his own thoughts.

The clothes were neatly hanging on the clothesline. The vegetables had all been chopped and he had prepared the bacon for the lunch and it was still just 5.45 AM. He was about to put things together and get to preparing things for the day. It was a big day today, his mother was do have another surgery. Her health had been stout throughout the Golden Week but doctors had found a few alarming developments.<br/><br/>They had informed him about it and he had given his consent regarding the new line of action though his mother did the decision making. Though Elena was upset but she quickly calmed down about learning the seriousness of it. <br/><br/>As he was mostly done and was about to get started on breakfast he was greeted by the surprise of Elena at the Kitchen's doorway. From the looks of her disheveled appearance it was clear that she hadn't bothered to wash herself up before coming to see him. It was clear that something was eating at her mind and with the event of today it was hardly any suspense as to what it was.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Good Morning! Eli.""</font></span> Alexei greeted her, acknowledging her silent presence as she just stood there watching him cook.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-b"">""Nii-san!!""</span></font> she started but paused. There was a pregnant silence as Alexei just waited for her to finish what she wanted to say, <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#0072bc"">"" I am not going to school today.""</font></span> she said finally, letting out a deep sigh.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Why? Aren't the exams around the corner.""</font></span> he said without looking at her, she was an obedient little child. He hardly had any complaints, if any, with her. She wasn't always so, she was indeed quite a brat in her growing years. But, after the incident that made them leave Tokyo. Her behavior did a complete 180.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-b"">""I wanna be with mum.""</span></font> she said meekly. She knew how hard her brother worked to keep the family together. To her, he was a saint whom she can't repay for the burden he carried on her behalf, without ever letting a complaint slip his mouth. All he expected out of her was her complete focus on living a normal school life and doing exceedingly well in exams so that she could get in at Tokyo University. Though, it was just a day off from her routine, she knew that he never took one and there was a bit of guilt but at the same time the worry that she may never be able to see her mother alive ate at her. There was always that risk and while she didn't know of how much it troubled Alexei, she knew how much it affected her.<br/><br/>Alexei stopped what he was doing for a moment as he heard her. She shook slightly expecting an order from her elder brother. In the end, she would do what he said even if it would not be what she want.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""I understand.""</span></font> he said quietly. She stood with her mouth agape, she hadn't expected that in the least. Yet again he had managed to exceed her expectations.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Even better, I'll drop you at the hospital while I go to school.""</span></font> he said turning around to look at her with a slight smile.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-b"">""Oh! Thank you, Onii-san!""</span></font> she said as she ran and hugged him. He returned the embrace as he patted her head. After that she went to get some more sleep and he packed her lunch. He proceeded to workout a bit before they both got ready and went out of the house.<br/><br/>He dropped her at the gate of the hospital.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Say a prayer from my side too.""</font></span> he said as he patted her cheek and planting a peck at her forehead before departing. She watched him turn the bend before going inside. A big day waited ahead.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Afterschool</span></div><br/><br/>It was practice time again. Lately Alexei's interest had waned in the other clubs he was part of. Especially as the kidnappings intensified, he couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy and on the edge. Meanwhile, Sagat had put Inoue on a tough circuit for the past few weeks and the results were starting to show. <br/><br/>Through her gym vest one could see the contours of newly formed muscle. Inoue had dropped a few percent of body fat and looked more ripped, her jawline had gotten more prominent and a fierce aura emanated from her as beads of sweat sparkled in the afternoon light that filled the musty hall they called the MMA Club Room. <br/><br/>The change had started a few weeks back, Sagat had come to the conclusion to put her mental will to test by giving her dream a shot. It was decided that over the course of next four weeks Sagat would try and imbibe some of his technique into her game before Alexei would take over and try the same.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Okay, Inoue!""</span></font> Sagat clapped his hands loudly to snap him out of his thoughts and gather attention.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f7941d"">""I think you are mostly ready, it is now time to test that.""</font></span> He said with his laidback drawl that was his style. It was hard to believe that a man who acted so laid back and relaxed was such a brute.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f7941d"">""You have 3 minutes to score a clean hit on Alexei. Elbows and Knees are allowed.""</font></span> he said, looking over at Alexei to motion as if he could handle it. Alexei gave him a thumbs up to mark his accent. Inoue had a confident look to her as she took stance, it was a Muay Thai stance instead of her regular Tae-Kwon-Do one. Alexei also stretched a bit before getting ready. Sagat was to act as referee.<br/><br/>With his signal the bout started, immediately Inoue went on the offensive with a high thrusting kick. Alexei leaned into the attack to catch it on his shoulder before grabbing the offending leg tightly and spinning Inoue mid-air with a twist before going for a leg lock. Immediately Sagat blew whistle to signify his victory.<br/><br/>Soon the three minutes passed. In the end Inoue didn't manage to get even one clean hit on Alexei but unlike times before, Alexei had to think on his feet to counter her. She had gotten a lot more faster and ridiculously stronger apart from a fly like agility that was hard to counter normally. It was just that she had played into Alexei's close quarters game with her over-aggression but it was a good lesson learnt.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#f7941d"">""Inoue! Unless you are confident that you can get in and get out quickly. Don't go for a thrust kick against a floor specialist.""</font></span> Sagat said as he leaned next to a prone Inoue who was still catching her breath. Even with her extreme effort, Alexei had been a wall not easy to surpass.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Also why didn't you use elbows? I said it was allowed. Were you scared?""</span></font> he asked curiously.<br/><br/><font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">""I..hunh..I..Didn't want to hurt him.""</span></font> she said exhausted.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Do you think him to be this weak? Or you think that just in a month you have closed down the gap in strength?"" </span></font>he continued his little investigation. Though it sounded rude, it was necessary. A fighter's main job was to fight but to fight within rules. So it was essential that one knew of every rule and every exception.<br/><br/><font color=""#662d91""><span class=""bb-b"">""Umm..""</span></font><br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Don't answer. But trust him, he isn't mad that he would volunteer for such an activity. Also, I have hit him harder when we spar.""</span></font> he said with a grave expression.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""You know that our target is not women's MMA, right? It is to be the complete fighting machine. Irrespective of it being a boy or a girl.""</span></font> he said with a hint of pride. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">"" So you wash those doubts and try again.""</span></font><br/><br/>They rested for a while before going for a pullup contest which obviously Sagat won. Inoue came in second to her own surprise.</div>"

There was a bit of talk about preparing for summer, why one would ask? Well, it was the tournaments between highschools in the Kanto region mostly. It was annual and Rui knew it. It appeared to be held in a place called Tatsumi Port Island this year. He'd heard of the place, but only because of something called Apathy Syndrome spreading around the news a couple years back. Apparently it was a small incident, but it did cause a fair amount of grief. Not to mention they apparently had a very prestigious school, so likely they had state of the art facilities and all... Once he thought about that, the location choice came as little surprise.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Akane, what do you think about the tournaments coming in summer?""</font>, he inquired.

In any case, he should probably revise a little for the midterms coming up. He was solid on the material, but he had the freedom to make sure.

Either way though, she was doing well enough - she kept up her studies throughout the year and was spending a bit more time most eveninings behind her school books rather than in the greenhouse or with her newest mystery novel, tempting though it was. Finishing up her notes, she put her books and utensils into her school bag - a quick glance confirming that she'd remembered to bring along everything she'd found on the matter of growing plants in general and flowers in particular. She had one or two books on the subject at home which she never really looked at since she'd already had them for years - but they might be helpful in some way, so she had decided to take them with her to today's meeting of the Agriculture Club where they could be kept for reading by the others if they so desired. Or, more likely, Shizuka at least, considering that Matthew seemed to know his way about plants - at least, if she hadn't done any research of her own or if he taught her, that is.

Thinking back on the last meeting, they had discussed some of the things that the club could do for activities - though it was mostly Matthew speaking with occasional words being brought up by Shizuka and Kotori. Either way though, they hadn't really established anything concrete yet and had instead opted to at least think it over - though unfortunately, she hadn't really come up with anything suitable beyond growing whatever took their fancy; something which wasn't exactly going to be very helpful towards researching any agricultural methods.

Sato wasn't fond of the concept of practicing a profession he hardly cared for, especially one like that, but his parents had always insisted on it. His dad had decided on it even before he had left, and his mother was still all about the idea. Sato Hashimoto, after all, had no siblings and his parents wanted their only baby to become someone they could be proud of. He wanted to protest, to tell his mother that wasn't what he wanted to do with his life, but he knew she'd ask him what he wanted to do instead. And Sato had no answer to that. So he just kept studying for his exams like any good student would.<br/><br/>	The bell signalling the end of the school day tolled and Sato shut his books the exact way he did every other day. Sato wasn't even sure why he was still thinking about it, since it was in the morning his mother had brought up his university and all that. He waited for the crowd of students to dissipate, like always, before getting up. The boy shoved his books into the school bag hanging from his desk, carelessly tossing his pencils in with the texts before picking it up. As he walked around his desk to get to the door closest to him, a clattering caught his attention. His phone had tumbled to the ground after having bumped his desk by accident.<br/><br/>	Sato knelt down to pick it up off the ground, but after pocketing it and going to stand back up, he hit his head on the side of his desk-- or rather, he was hit. The teen was knocked to the ground, colliding with another desk on the way down. He looked up from the floor at the cause of the incident, only to see Rokurou's as-always inexpressive face with one knee on his desk. The taller boy had pushed the desk forward just far enough for Sato to biff it on his own. Sato propped himself back up and glared at the other boy. ""What do you want?"" They still weren't exactly the best of friends again, and Sato didn't want to act politely in case this guy was going to be an asshat again.<br/><br/>	Rokurou withdrew his knee, standing up straight and looking down at Sato from his minor height advantage. ""You're hanging out with me today,"" He said, giving just the slightest smirk.<br/><br/>	""Fine,"" Sato muttered, as he grabbed his school bag off the floor. ""But why'd you go through the effort to find me?"" Sato followed Rokurou as he strode out of the classroom without responding. He reiterated his question. ""Don't you have anyone else to bother?""<br/><br/>	""Nah, you're my go-to guy."" Rokurou answered after the second version of the question. ""My girl's busy today and I got nothing better to do.""<br/><br/>	Sato frowned, shoving his hands into his pockets as he walked. ""We-- moreso <span class=""bb-i"">you</span>-- should be studying right now. Midterms are right around the corner, you know.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou pushed the school doors open with his knee and walked backwards out, looking at Sato as he responded. ""Come on, Sato. Don't be a nerd. I'd prefer going singing some karaoke or something instead of shoving my nose into some books any day."" He did a few hand gestures as he spoke, but Sato didn't really understand what they were supposed to mean, so he just gave Rokurou a sour look as he backed up further. Sato was about to rebuttal, when he remembered that there were some stairs in front of the school. He was just about to warn him of it when he heard a resounding ""<span class=""bb-i"">Fuck!</span>"" come from the other third-year.<br/><br/>	The stairs weren't particularly steep nor were they long (as he remembered from when he had biffed it on the steps weeks ago), but it was still a little horrifying to see Rokurou tumble backwards down the steps. Sato flew down the cement stairs and crouched down next to Rokurou, who was slowly pushing himself off the ground. ""Are you okay?!"" He asked, scanning the boy up and down for any obvious injuries.<br/><br/>	""No, I'm dying. Tell my mom I love her."" Rokurou replied dryly, pushing himself onto his ass, rubbing the back of his hair. Sato was a little relieved to see that Rokurou wasn't seriously hurt (as far as he could tell), but his irritation remained.<br/><br/>	""How can you seriously forget about the stairs, Rokurou?"" A bit of a hypocritical statement, but Sato didn't really care. In all honesty he wasn't in the mood for studying and the distraction was welcome. ""If you're as fine as your sarcasm implies, then let's get going.""<br/><br/>	""Oh, no."" Rokurou groaned as he rubbed his shoulder. ""That still hurt like a bitch. Give me a minute..."" Sato let out a long sigh and stood beside Rokurou (who'd scooted himself onto the grass), leaving plenty of space between them. As he watched Rokurou try to stretch out wherever he'd hurt himself, Sato gathered that it was mostly the boy's shoulders and arms that took the fall. The thought of giving a shoulder massage crossed Sato's mind, but he quickly got rid of that idea. That'd be... a little too unsolicited.</div>"

Not given anymore time to think on it, more masked people came after her. Not sure what's going on, she turned corner upon corner trying to lose them. Just when she felt she finally did, she was trapped. <br/><br/>In what would normally be a 10-15 walk home, she found herself running all over the place before losing track of her surroundings.

Then again the teachers did throw in weird questions every now and then, so learning about different fabrics probably wouldn't have actually hurt him. If he didn't get forced into this situation he honestly wouldn't have know but dear lord were the fabric explanations a little above the average learning level. He was expecting just a brief explanation, but boy was he wrong she went into such detail that he couldn't forget this information even if he tried.

Slamming the door shut behind them, Rokurou flopped down on the middle of the hardwood flooring. Sato stared at him for a while before the brawnier teen gave an order disguised as a question. ""Take a seat?""<br/><br/>	He complied, quietly positioning himself across from the club president, school bag set on his lap. ""So, uh..."" Sato started, looking around before continuing, ""is this really where you study? In the middle of the room?""<br/><br/>	Rokurou leaned back, planting his palms down behind him for support. ""Is that a problem?"" The boy's attitude annoyed Sato to no end. There wasn't even a desk or table or anything to make use of. Just the cold hard ground. It was easy to see why Rokurou was known as dash-two's biggest dunce.<br/><br/>	Pulling his textbooks out from the bag, Sato set up the floor before them the way he always did for studying. Rokurou picked up the book closest to him and started to flip through it, but Sato snatched it out of his hands immediately. ""Don't just take whatever you want... Let's start with your weakest areas so we don't have to worry about you failing those. What's your worst subject?""<br/><br/>	Rokurou scratched at his ear before looking at the textbooks with a dull look on his face. He eyed the books for a couple seconds. ""All of them."" Sato groaned, to which Rokurou replied with a tired sigh. ""I'm not going to force you to stay,"" He said. Sato stopped scribbling notes onto some random piece of paper stuck in a textbook to look up at Rokurou.<br/><br/>	""Oh… uh, sorry. I didn't mean anything. You're just not being very cooperative."" Sato lowered his brow. He wasn't even sure why he felt bad. Everyone always joked about Rokurou's shitty test scores... It wouldn't be nice to be known as the 'stupid one'. Even the teachers played fun about it. ""Let's start with math. I'm pretty good at it so it should be no problem to explain.""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9dbAfjlrks"" rel=""nofollow"">Rokurou's Room</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 8TH 2015, FRIDAY<br/>Early Morning</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Ba-dum</span><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">TSSSSSS</span></span><br/><br/>	Sato awoke in a panic, falling away from the wall he was sleeping against as he gathered his surroundings. They had passed out in the middle of the study session. He pushed himself onto his feet and stretched his back, which was sore from being slumped over like that for so long. A paper stuck to his arm. He pulled it off and looked over at where the loud sound had come from. Rokurou was playing with a drumstick, seated behind the drum set in the corner, only boxers and a form-fitting black shirt on. An interesting way to go about getting him up. ""Why do you have all these instruments in your room?"" Sato asked, noticing the variety Rokurou had. There were the drums, a few guitars, a keyboard, and what looked to be some kind of woodwind.<br/><br/>	""Isn't it obvious?"" Rokurou tossed the drumsticks onto the ground and walked over to the door, twanging one of the strings on an electric guitar on his way there. ""I like 'em. School's in ten by the way."" Sato wanted to tell him that wasn't what he was asking, but Rokurou was already gone. It took Sato a moment to process the second part of what the prez said...<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">Ten minutes?!</span> He literally just woke up! Sato didn't even know how long it took to get to school from Rokurou's place! This was going to the be the first time he was late in a year! Not wasting time, Sato gathered up all his books, shoving them carelessly into his school bag, before rushing out the door. Unfortunately Rokurou was right outside, and it was a direct collision. Sato was the only one to stumble. ""Gotta go right now immediately!"" Sato said, zooming through and out of the house. The Ishihara family seemed a little confused when they saw him, and Sato assumed they hadn't known he'd slept over. There was no time to explain.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>	Sato felt dirty. Not mentally, but physically. He'd done absolutely none of his morning ritual and he just felt shitty. Not to mention passing out with his nose actually in a book. Luckily, class was finally over, and he was free to go home and take a shower or something. He was set to leave, but then he noticed Rokurou enter the room. It was at that moment Sato decided to join the crowd tomorrow.<br/><br/>	""Hey man,"" Rokurou said, locking Sato into the interaction. ""I think you have some of my shit. One of the teachers bitched me out because I didn't have my notes or whatever.""<br/><br/>	Sato fished out some papers and handed them over. He'd taken them by accident that morning, mistaking them as his own considering his writing was on them. ""Well, they're really <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> notes, but here. Don't lose them.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou flipped through the papers for whatever reason before flashing Sato a thumbs up. He turned to leave. ""Hey,"" Sato blurted out, eyes to the floor, stopping the older boy before he could exit the classroom. Rokurou raised one eyebrow in response. ""Do you want to study again tonight? You definitely still need it.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou gave a little grin, the same kind from yesterday. ""Sure, man. I appreciate it.""<br/><br/>	""Alright, I'll meet you at your place in an hour or so. I already know we're going to be up until two figuring out trigonometry again."" Sato replied with his own Hashimoto type of smile.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0EKwWwCSKk"" rel=""nofollow"">Testujin Karaoke Place</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 9TH 2015, SATURDAY<br/>Evening</span><br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">Oh won't you cover my skin with your sun-kissed light,</span>""<br/><br/>	It was the weekend and Sato was doing something he hadn't done in a while: karaoke. After spending yet another night trying to absorb as much material they could in one sitting, Rokurou decided to take him and a few of the other archery guys out to sing, not study. Everyone seemed to be really into it except for Sato. The teen was fixated on something else entirely.<br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">There's a bonfire burning tonight,</span>""<br/><br/>	Maybe it was some weird burn-out aftermath from studying too hard, but Sato's eyes couldn't not focus on anything more than the movements of the others in the room. The way his lips moved as he followed the lyrics, the motion of their hands, the sway of shoulders, <br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">We could be all right,</span>""<br/><br/>	But he wasn't really registering what he was looking at it. The only thing his mind could fathom were the words ringing in his head. They weren't the words being sung or the things his eyes followed, but a familiar, yet unplaceable, voice.<br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">Evaline, Evaline, Evaline, Evaline...</span>""<br/><br/>	Except he couldn't even understand what was being said. All that he processed was a ringing in his ears and a disconnect in his being. <br/><br/>	""Hey!"" Sato snapped back to reality, blinking twice, and turned to the voice. Rokurou had seated himself beside Sato, trying to catch his breath.  ""I've been belting it for six songs now! Get up there and sing some, Sato!"" Rokurou said, pointing back over to the karaoke machine. While he came without the intention of actually singing anything considering how bad he was at it, Sato pushed himself up regardless and searched for a good song.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m75r54BwahQ"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma Public Library</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 10TH 2015, SUNDAY<br/>Midday</span><br/><br/>	With midterms the next day, Sato was studying yet again. He couldn't justify taking the day off after having wasted the other day singing karaoke. While Sato personally felt he was pretty set, it wouldn't hurt to review everything one more time and helping some of the other archery kids while he was at it seemed a good idea. Studying with others was a lot more tolerable than doing it alone. Besides, tutoring Rokurou was actually proving to be good for his own studies. Explaining the material to such an idiot took some work, after all.<br/><br/>	Though his pen moved, his head wasn't in it. All the kanji became unintelligible lines after a while so Sato just leaned back in his chair and stretched, closing his eyes for just a second. He couldn't shake the feeling that something big was going to happen to him soon, and it kept distracting him from what he was trying to focus on. That feeling yesterday…it had to have some kind of meaning. Or maybe he was just overthinking it. Regardless, he wasn't going to get anything meaningful done, so Sato looked around the library for no reason. He spotted that Dragunov guy from Drama club, but nobody else really stood out. With a sigh, Sato returned his attention to the table.<br/><br/>	It wasn't too shock, but everyone was distracted from their books by whatever was on their phones. Sato stared at them boredly before one of the girls passed a hot pink cellphone over to him. He tried his best to hide his surprise when he saw a photo of 'Saki'. He scrolled through the photo album, looking at all the photos of people. There was that Noboru kid doing some anime pose in the mall (shirtless), some photos of a kid in the park swinging weapon. Some of them weren't too bad but others gave him some second-hand embarrassment. Sato passed the phone back to the girl after he was done.<br/><br/>	""I can't believe they'd hire a drag queen at the maid cafe,"" One of the guys said.<br/><br/>	""It's so creepy!"" A girl replied. ""But did you see that loser at the mall? What a weirdo. Can you not bleed on us?"" And the others repeated things of the same fashion, mentioning other instances of such weird people.<br/><br/>	""Sato,"" Rokurou addressed him, arm propping up his chin. The inkling of a smirk on the corner of his lips. ""Lame, right?""<br/><br/>	Sato looked up from the table. ""Yeah. I can't believe they don't have anything better to do than go freak it up in public."" He couldn't read the expression on Rokurou's face and it annoyed him. The whole conversation at the table annoyed him. Maybe it was because they were addressing what he had done as 'creepy' and 'disgusting', but everyone talking shit about random people doing what they wanted to do pissed him off. He rose from his seat, chair squeaking a bit as it slid backwards. ""I'll be right back,"" He said.<br/><br/>	The teen walked away from the table, books in hand, and over to some random book case to give the illusion of looking for a new material. Unfortunately he ended up in math hell, which was the subject he'd went over the most with Rokurou. He wonder down the bookcase before noticing a familiar girl. Though he knew it was kinda creepy, he couldn't help but look at the question she was whispering about. It took him a moment, but it was easy enough to solve. ""Y is 2. You missed a step here,"" Sato said, pointing to the equation Otonashi had been working on.<br/><br/>	""Ah… forgive me for butting in, Otonashi."" The boy gave a little bow, just in case she still deemed him rude for his intrusion. ""If you don't mind me asking, what year are you in? This stuff seems pretty basic.""</div>"

To that end, most of the library-goers happened to be students; their noses buried in books of various subject. Kotori also happened to be among them - standing before one shelf containing various books on English, she already held two in her arms whilst scanning the backs of those she had left standing to see if there were any others that might be of interest in her studies. Though she usually scored well enough, she still felt that it might be best to get a little extra outside input instead of just relying on the school textbooks - something she'd already done for the most of these last few days.<br/><br/>That, combined with her notes from classes was usually sufficient - but with the usual atmosphere around school when big tests came up, she still couldn't help but feel a little nervous too. Most of her classmates' topics of conversation came back to it sooner or later - at least those that were present, as she remembered that Akane had been absent both Friday and Saturday. Hoping the other girl hadden gotten a cold at such an inopportune time, Kotori took down one book from the upper-most shelf - one of the few times she was glad to be a little on the taller side, seeing as she didn't need to get on tip-toes to do so; if only barely - before opening it to glance over the table of contents to see whether it might be relevant. Shaking her head lightly when that turned out to not be the case, she put it back before deciding to make do with what she already had and looked around for an empty table to sit down at.<br/><br/>Doing so, she saw one or two classmates together with their friends poring over what looked like math books at one table. At another, a young man sat alone - Kotori's gaze quickly wandered on when she noticed the sharp-dressed man's scowl that seemed like he really didn't want to be here. Oddly enough, he hadn't been the first such person she'd seen about town - they seemed to have just popped up out of nowhere from one day to another. Looking further, she recognised a familiar, if mostly hidden face in Shizuka, her clubmate from Agriculture Club. She was just about to raise a hand in greeting when a boy stepped up behind her and spoke to her - it looked like she'd come with study partners as the boy at the same table looked up too. Rather than interrupt the three, she came to the conclusion that none of the nearby tables were empty - the final two were occupied by a blue-haired boy with a backpack at his side and, as she realised a moment later, another familiar student in the form of Alexei.<br/><br/>She was about to raise a hand in greeting a second time - when she stopped half-way as she remembered the rather odd sight that he'd been the last time she'd seen him in the Flowershop a few days ago. She still didn't know what that had been about - but not only was it now already a few days in the past, but she didn't exactly feel like it would be very appropriate to inquire about such a thing. Furthermore, he wasn't alone - beside him was another girl and they both seemed focused on their studies. Only at a second glance did Kotori notice that the girl's features had a distinction to them similiar to Alexei's that made it evident that she too wasn't from around here - which, given that he'd ordered flowers for both his mother and sister, made the conclusion that she was said sister an easy one.<br/><br/>Given that she didn't want to disturb any one those present in their studies but also needing a table to read on, Kotori decided on a seat at the Dragunov siblings' table; her hand lowered from its previously half-raised state as she approached the table, readjusting her glasses as she did. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> she started, her voice even more quiet than usual given that they were in a library. <font color=""green"">""Is... this seat taken...?""</font> Kotori asked, glancing between the two - whilst at the same time avoiding a direct greeting as she wasn't sure if it wouldn't be rude to either greet only one but not the other or embarassing instead if she had been wrong about the girl's identity after all.</div>"

Things began to become more decrepit, old, worn down, some of the paintings that told the story at this point were becoming dirtier and more marred with dirt or mold, and dust set in on the bits of furniture that laid about.<br/><br/>The team decided to take it a little slower, the horde of enemies present on the first floor no longer pestered them, but it was uncomfortably quiet here. As soon as they stepped into a large round room adorned with paintings and peeling wallpaper, a wild cackling laughter broke out in the entire room, and furniture began to fly about. There was a suit of armour in the very middle of the room, large, but it seemed to be missing some parts, like the gauntlets and parts of the greaves. A sword stuck out behind it.<br/><br/>As the chaos continued, crimson lights began to emerge from the candles and paintings and began to culminate around the suit of armor and soon bits of armor that were not within view began to fly in and merge with the armor in the center.

Giving another small bow in thanks at that, Kotori placed her books down as Alexei motioned towards the girl and confirming Kotori's assumption of her being his sister.<br/><br/>As she sat down, Alexei in turn introduced Kotori as the one who made up the bouquets which were delivered to her every day. Looking up in surprise at him, her eyes were drawn to her hand before she could speak up when she felt it being grasped - by a rather joyful looking Elena who expressed her thanks and more. Rather unused to the sudden action and attention, Kotori quickly glanced around before lowering her gaze to the table. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, that... I-I think my mother would be more deserving of y-your thanks, D-Dragunov-san,""</font> she spoke quickly - and truly, as it was indeed her mother who did most of the work on the ikebana bouquets for customers and had been the one to deliver them to the hospital.<br/><br/>At that thought, Kotori glanced back up at the girl before her - she didn't seem to be sickly or showing any sign of requiring any prolonged stays at a hospital. Furthermore, she couldn't recall having seen the girl before - neither there nor at school, which would indicate the girl to be younger; as further evidenced by the way Alexei had referred to her. It was only then, after the immediate surprise of the sudden attention started to subside that Kotori realised that she hadn't even fully introduced herself; leading to her giving a small bow as well as she could with the table before her. <font color=""green"">""Ah, excuse me. I'm Kotori Shirohane. I go to the same school as your brother,""</font> she said - not needing to add anything about her family's flowershop seeing as the other girl evidently already knew about that. With that out of the way, Kotori stole another glance about - hoping that they hadn't drawn any more attention or disturbed any of the other library-goers.</div>"

Before it could corner them though, Chiaki managed to get its attention. As soon as it raised its blade, the sound of wind and a blade cutting steel rang throughout the room, as it stopped in its tracks. Its armor splintered, but it seemed whatever Rui had done was not enough, though it seems he realized this, and instantly he came through to the front, slashing at the neck, lopping the helmet off. The red cracks began to deepen, and finally stop... However the knight was not yet done. With Rui's back turned to it, it raised its blade once more as a headless knight. Matt shrieked in fear which warned Rui of something strange happening, giving Rui a chance to turn around and see the blade swinging right for him. Just in the nick of time, he managed to block the blade with his sheathed katana, the scabbard taking the brunt of it, and his Persona beside him blocking at the same time. After a few moments where the blades grinded against one another, Rui managed push it back. Immediately following that was a barrage of spells from Chiaki, Matt and Leiko, before he cut it down the middle using Askr.<br/><br/>The knight began to crumble and splinter, the red ethereal energy beginning to dissolve into the air and leave the armor.

It felt like a happy ending, with the locking away of the anguish, but it wasn't satisfactory... In any case, there were large double doors at the end of the hallway, and upon entering, it made itself clear that this room was a throne room.

Embarrassed that the other had not seen her gesture and therefore made it seem like she waved at no one, her hand immediately dropped back down as if nothing had happened. While doing so, the freshman noticed a fellow classmate, another foreign studrnt, in the vicinity as well, taking a glance at her with a tilt of his head. Despite being a little confused at his reaction, she decided it was only polite to greet him as her head slightly bowed towards him in a polite gesture.<br/><br/>Once not much else had caught her attention, Shizuka was about to return the direction of her eyes towards the notes before her when a familiar voice suddenly spoke from behind her, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Y is 2.

Feeling bashful and ashamed from being warned, her petite hands covered her lips as she sunk into her seat a little. A short moment later, her head turned towards the source of the voice to find Sato, which explained the familiar tone.

As if she said the magic words, Akane fell to her knees and gripped her head harder than before as she was subjected with an unimaginable pain, a splitting pain. It was as if...as if there was something....something inside her that wanted out. Soon she'd find herself being unable to move her body, like it wasn't hers anymore.</div>"

Yeah, that was probably a little wrong of him to butt in like that. Though, that Sieghardt guy joined in on the Third Year Math Hero game, so he felt less bad about it. The other people at the library shushed her, and Sato stifled a giggle. He sat down a seat away from Otonashi, tossing his books on the table with an ironic amount of force. ""That was inappropriate of me to intrude like that, you shouldn't have to apologize.""<br/><br/>	""A first year, huh...?"" Sato said, resting his chin on his palm. ""If I recall correctly, we're both third years. Midterms are the monday after next, right? I've been studying so much lately my hands hurt from writing..."" The boy fiddled with the pencil that was resting on top of his math textbook. There were still scribbles on the cover of it from when he studied with Rokurou, so he picked up the writing utensil and quickly erased whatever it was that Roku had illegibly scrawled down when Sato was looking away. Whatever it was it obviously wasn't important.<br/><br/>	Sato was about to open his mouth again when a tap on his shoulder got his attention. He turned in his seat to see Rokurou standing before him. ""We're shoving off,"" He said, pointing back over his shoulder. ""I'm gonna go get me a milkshake, you want in?""<br/><br/>	Sato simply nodded. ""No, I'm good. Thanks for the offer though."" The teen looked down at the table, just so he wouldn't have to look at Rokurou more. He was so… something. Just something about that guy bothered and distracted him. Sato whipped open the nearest book and picked up that pencil again. ""I'm still studying. See you tomorrow, Rokurou.""<br/><br/>	The boy took the cue and walked off with a shrug, doing a little walk-jog to catch up with one of the other guys in the group. Sato's eyes ran down the page without really reading anything, forcing him to try to read it again. Instead of grasping it, he just got more frustrated, so Sato closed the book again and rubbed at his eyes with his palms. Pushing the book to the side, Sato turned back to Otonashi, tapping his pencil on the desk. ""Do you need any help with this? I think I'm done studying my own material for today.""</div>"

As it turned out, it had been Shizuka - a fact that, after a moment's thought, became obvious considering it had been her voice after all. Still, the poor girl seemed understandably flustered at the attention her sudden outburst was getting so that Kotori quickly turned away to not put her under any more pressure - even as she herself breathed a small sigh in relief after the initial shock of the surprise wore off.<br/><br/>Her eyes quickly turned back to the girl at the same table as she introduced herself fully; confirming herself to be her brother's sister and to be going to middle school, and a private one at that - though Kotori blinked in surprise mostly at the Elena's surname as she hadn't expected her to have two. <font color=""green"">""Ah, n-nice to meet you,""</font> Kotori said - stuttering just briefly when she realised that she was still clasping Elena's hand from before and weakened her grip. As the other girl however kept her hands on hers, Kotori glanced at it and the girl a little nervously; unsure what to say - when Elena instead spoke up. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Kotori looked a little surprised at the question - until she glanced down at the books in front of her. <font color=""green"">""Oh, ah, no, not first,""</font> she then quickly said, shaking her head, <font color=""green"">""I just thought these might help studying.""</font><br/><br/>Kotoris eyes wandered from the books to the Elena's face - looking at it from just a table away and side by side with her brother's made both some similarities and differences more evident than the first glance had - before quickly turning back down to her hands; still a little unsure about the prolonged contact as she glanced between her hand and the other two table occupants. It was evident that she wasn't entirely comfortable - even whilst trying to think of anything to say. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... s-so, why are y-you two here?""</font> Kotori finally asked - her voice both quiet as ever and source of her immediate regret at the question, considering that there was really only one thing a student might be doing on a Sunday in the library with midterms coming up.</div>"

I wouldn't have noticed that missing step by myself, thank you.""</font> A soft curve upon her lips formed towards the other before she clicked the mechanical pencil in her hand to revise the steps after the one she had missed, scribbling into her notes about the lacking step. While she was figuring out the new solution to the algebra problem, her attention was turned back towards the two who proclaimed themselves as seniors.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""If I remember correctly, yes it should be about the Monday of next week. Following a study habit is good for any student but do please remember to take breaks from time to time as well,""</font> the younger student advised with a concerned tone of her voice after what she had heard from the other two about how hard they were studying. The light voiced maiden usually balanced her time according between studies, break and leisure time, but while feeling down, she had a bad habit of indulging too deep into her otaku interests.<br/><br/>Realizing that she had yet to introduce herself to the other upperclassman, her lips parted to speak once more with a bow of her head, <font color=""violet"">""Oh, pardon me but I've yet to introduce myself to you. My name is Otonashi--""</font> She was cut off mid sentence as another male voice was heard, this time, it was from her foreign classmate scolding them about the noise they-- well, she just made. Wait, what was his name again? Shizuka tried to recall as she started on her apology in a shaky tone, <font color=""violet"">""I-I'm sorry A-A... Aron--...? Ah! Alon-san. P-Please don't include them in the blame, they were merely he-helping me in my studies. I...

If... If it won't be too much trouble then I would be delighted to receive your help.""</font> The freshman accepted shyly but she truly appreciated it.

He listened to Otonashi introduce herself to Sieghardt only by what Sato assumed was her last name. The idea of her being the cosplay café girl was still in the back of his mind, but he'd already decided to drop it, so Sato just eyed the things Otonashi had written down on her notes. That is, until someone came up to their table to tell them off for making a bit of noise. Sato had to suppress a laugh with Sieghardt as he watched the random younger teen walk back to his table. They were hardly being <span class=""bb-i"">boisterous</span>.<br/><br/>	""I'm pretty done with studying for now, but it's not like reviewing first year material is a strain."" Sato said, reassuring Otonashi that it wasn't any bother to help her out. ""Besides, I've been helping someone with math for a while now, it's not much of a change of pace.""<br/><br/>	Otonashi told them that they were largely focused on algebra. Well, that made it definitely easier in two ways: one, anyone was easier to teach math to than Rokurou. And two, there was no way he could fuck up algebra like he had a few times with their own material a few nights ago. That was a wild ride trying to salvage after doing it all wrong for at least an hour.<br/><br/>	Regardless, Sato pulled over some of Otonashi's notes and quickly read through them to get a grasp on where she was. What she was doing was definitely further ahead than what he had done in his old school as a first year, but that was hardly a problem for a plethora of reasons. The two students went through some questions, Sato explaining anything she didn't fully get with a frustrating lack of confidence in his own words. It didn't take long before he got burnt out with helping Otonashi as well, aggressively writing numbers and letters down on a piece of loose leaf he'd taken from someone at the table.<br/><br/>	""I think I'm done. I've had enough math to last me a lifetime now. "" Sato said, putting down his pencil with a shred of gentleness and running a hand through his bangs. ""Though…now that I've helped you, do you think you could return the favor? It's just a question."" Maybe that came off as some kind of manipulation, the way he segwayed into it, but it had been on his mind the whole day. The indirect source of his frustration with all the math he'd been forcing himself through recently.<br/><br/>	""If you didn't like someone, but liked being with them… what would you do?"" Sato asked, looking directly at Otonashi for a few seconds before returning his glance to the notes before him, shaking his head a little. ""I'm sorry. That was a weird question. Never mind. Is there anything you're not clear on? The math, I mean.""</div>"

Unlike enemies before, this shadow didn't seem to project any kind of weakness or niche. Though soon he would realize that playing passively early was a mistake. With a sinister laugh the shadow blasted the entire field in a wave of dark energy, and with its float arms would immediately aim for Leiko amidst the chaos. Rui couldn't act quickly enough and she was captured, but now he knew the arms were separable. He made a signal to open fire, and Chiaki and Matthew blasted the shadow with everything they had, while Rui using Sukukaja moved to the side where Leiko was captured, and struck the energy that seeped between the arm and main body. This seemed to be successful in partially disarming the mage, but it didn't seem to do any damage. On the other hand Leiko was now free.<br/><br/>After yet another wave of magic, word came in from Megumi.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""It seems to exert power from every pore of its body, and when its not attacking it uses that energy as a thinly coated shield. It should be vulnerable when it attacks""</span></font>,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""When it attacks...""</font>, this was going to be difficult, considering it blasted energy all over the place. He looked at the party, only Matthew seemed to be faring okay... Well, these were fire moves after all... Wait.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Matthew, use Agi in a fireball when it attacks again""</font>, he ordered. After a few claw attacks, Rui managing to shrug the brunt of it away from the party with the help of Leiko's healing, the big wave sure enough was on its way. On signal, Matthew fired a fireball styled Agi, and using it as cover, Rui charged.<br/><br/>The Agi was destroyed rather quickly, but what it did was open a small spot for Rui to move through. With the help of Sukukaja, he was able to close the distance fast enough, and just before the shadow could bring its shield back, its heart was struck. A clear crack appeared in the armor as Rui slashed through, and dark energy seeped out from within the shadow. As soon as he landed... The shriek of agony began to become almost joyful laughter as he turned. The energy seepeing from the shadow's chest was forming into a gigantic ball of energy, and it was rapidly increasing in size, it was like looking at a miniature black-red sun.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""No! Get out of there! You can't survive that!""</span></font>, but in this room, there was nowhere to run... There was only one thing to do... Rui slipped his sword back into its sheath, and took a stance. As readily as he did, his Persona also appeared behind him in stance. The shadow let loose its ball of energy, hurtling slowly towards Rui.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Akane, we all make mistakes, its natural. To realize you made that mistake means to grow as a person, but you can't grow as long as you let it bother you. Shed the person you are today, and become a person who learned through those experiences tomorrow""</font>, he directed the comment at Akane herself, but now he no longer had time to keep talking. It was time.<br/><br/>He couldn't go for the shadow directly, he'd get struck by the ball before he could close the distance, and going for the ball of energy was madness, but at the very least, it was aimed only at him as he stood behind the shadow who turned to him, while the party was on the other side, while the blast would still hit them, they weren't going to get downed unless it was aimed at them directly... So he slid under it.<br/><br/>As the ball of energy landed, and the explosion began to expand, Rui with his Persona was already behind the shadow, and a single horizontal slash dealt a fatal blow, but even then they had to contend with the blast. As soon as the blast cleared, the shadow while damaged, had its shield again, likely absorbing some of the energy from the earlier attack, but it was far slower than before.<br/><br/>A barrage of attacks both magical and physical rained upon the shadow, and soon enough the shadow crumpled to the floor, and transformed back into its more familiar form as Akane.</div>"

Elena seemed to be beaming as she explained that it was mostly because of her that the two were at the library - learning English herself was her reason, being dragged by his sister as a change of pace was Alexei's. The latter faced elsewhere as his sister spoke; only speaking up himself when she was finished. He in turn explained that he was catching up on some biology for both himself and his friends - and that they'd been here since early in the morning as a favour. A faint <font color=""green"">""ah""</font> was all Kotori could say to that - for a moment, she'd wanted to suggest he simply ask a classmate to lend him their notes on the subject. The next, she realised that she would probably have had trouble doing the same herself, so it would be rather hypocritical to try and suggest it; leaving her to instead say nothing before Alexei went on.<br/><br/>As he mentioned her, Kotori quickly brought her free hand up almost defensively at the thought of her being exceptional at studies with a small <font color=""green"">""ah, n-no, I...""</font> before turning her eyes downward; unsure what to ultimately say. Alexei meanwhile went on, wondering why she would choose to study English rather than any of the more immediate subjects - and furthermore offering to help out, seeing as Elena was enraptured by English books. Kotori meanwhile looked up again and at the girl in surprise - and then Alexei, when he apologised for any would-be offense.<br/><br/>A second time Kotori's hand waved off the words quickly, a shake of her head added for emphasis. <font color=""green"">""Ah, no, not at all,""</font> she said to alleviate any guilt over the words. <font color=""green"">""A-and I've been studying the other subjects for a while, s-so I thought doing s-something else... might be a good idea...""</font> she said before looking up again. <font color=""green"">""S-so, I don't want to disturb either of y-you two's studying just to help m-me, really,""</font> Kotori added, truthfully - she'd already taken enough of their time just by taking a seat, so she could hardly ask for even more. Furthermore, it would have meant asking the aid of Elena without being able to help out Alexei in return, given that she still had second year biology courses and thus little knowledge of the parts of the subject he was likely covering.</div>"

She couldn't do anything but observe and hope they make it through this. <br/><br/>The monster than released the energy all over field and used its detachable arms to capture one of the girls that were in the group. Though, it seems that the group knew what they were doing and actually fought back with....magic? Strangely, Even though it was certainly bizarre, she wasn't exactly as surprised as she would've thought. But despite all they did, they weren't able to damage 'it', though they did manage to save the girl, at least.

It's natural.... that's right, mistakes are common, everyone has them. How could she forget something so simple. Especially after saying it to others....

What was the last thing she saw? Herself...? Rui? There were others too, and a battle. As those thoughts were shoved aside she noticed the room she was in had an unearthly presence. Seated upon a long dining table, walls draped in a brilliant dark blue, despite the colour, this looked like a kind of dining room. She looked before herself to see something inscribed in front of her on the table. ""Chariot"". Then she noticed she wasn't in her usual clothes... It looked a lot like the suits her father's subordinates wore, though a different colour. Dress shirt with suit jacket and pants. The dress shirt unbuttoned enough to see the gauze wrap around her breasts like a makeshift bra. She really looked the part of a mafia of sorts. Then she remembered... There was a voice, and it would speak again.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""My name is Igor, and this is Henrietta""</font>, he said, he must be talking about the blonde girl next to him.  <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">You are a guest in this room. This is a place between dream and reality, mind and matter... Now then, you appear to have awoken to a rather hot-headed arcana, don't mind me saying...""</font>, Akane immediately knew which he was talking about. Chariot.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""To have the drive to go forth in your endeavours with spirit and vigor, is a magnificent trait to have, however if not careful, you may... Trodden... Some things you may regret having done so. I'm sure I don't need to tell you about that""</font>, he continued. Akane looked around a bit, and saw that there were others in the other seats, though they were but phantoms, and most seats were still empty. Some were recognizeable, like Matthew, Chiaki, Noboru, Rui, Kami... They were all in the 'place' earlier... With the fighting and everything.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Your friends have after all saved you from a most unfortunate fate... There are many yet more to come, and you will soon meet them... But for now, I will leave you with this key, so that you may return of your own accord""</font>, as he finished talking, the girl Henrietta was already walking up to her, and presented her with a key.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Well, until then...

In any case, Rui headed up to the hospital not long after school. Akane didn't have a lot of friends in class, but she was in the same year as him, so he was given today's notes to hand her too. In any case he was here now, surprisingly unlike before, he didn't see any police, even more surprising, he saw some... Really friendly men, in suits. They looked scary.<br/><br/>They seemed to be talking with Akane though, one of which he identified was her father based on the conversation taking place. He decided to wait just outside before going in...</div>"

Suddenly, the solution dawned on him. <font color=""skyblue"">""Well, 75 is the closest, so it <span class=""bb-i"">has</span> to be that one.""</font> He circled the supposedly-correct answer, a satisfied smile on his face. He could have gone to the public library, but what was the point? Granted, he could find someone he could study with, but what if he got behind and had to trouble the other one into helping him? No, Gen was better off studying on his own. At least that way he could understand things at his own pace.<br/><br/>The next problem proved to be more... problematic. Not the best word choice on that remark, but this was not Japanese, but Algebra. There was no choice to make, only add, substract, divide, and multiply as many times as were necesary, and compare answers. It was just rules, theorems, angles, and some more rules. Precise, with no room for creativity, with only one solution and one solution only for a single problem, and if you got it wrong you had to start over. Gen looked through the window. There was still daylight. It was probably half-past four; a glance at the clock confirmed that it was actually 5:11. Definitively a time for a snack! And on an unrelated note, Gen associated that hour with the fact that the next day, according to the American date format, it would be May 11th, or 5/11. It was obviously a coincidence, and it had nothing to do with anything, but it was one of those things that often one found themselves thinking about.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">""Ugh, I've only done like four problems.""</font> His father would definitively not approved of such progress. Gen had been at it for almost three hours. Maybe he should put a little more effort and avoid drifting away. He climbed down to the living-room where his mother was watching television. After exchanging some pleasantries and asking her if she wanted something - yes, a coffee, please - Gen motioned to the kitchen (undivided from the living-room) and opened a bag of chips and poured some coffee for her mother. Thanks, dear, she said, and that was all their interaction. No questions about his studiess, no offering to help him, nothing. Gen went to his room. He probably would not get into the top ten scores, but he was determined not to fail.<br/><br/>Not like <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> time.</div>"

The hum of dull, quiet conversation. Maybe it was the attachment Sato felt to the archery club, a symbol of personal freedom perhaps, but it felt, in a way, relaxing. There was still a subtle air around certain members that managed to bother him ever so slightly, but it was easy to forget when you're focusing on getting the perfect shot. Sato doubted that-- no, he knew that he would never pursue archery after he graduated, but he was okay with it. It wasn't his passion. It didn't actually mean much to him. Not much actually did matter to him outside of getting good grades. Perhaps... that was the reason Sato felt so out of place around the other archery kids. They all had a purpose after the school bell tolled, somewhere to be, while Sato didn't want to get out of his desk. He didn't even want to go home; there was nothing waiting for him there. Nothing to do. And... maybe... that was why his mind was fixated on Rokurou. Except Rokurou had a passion; music. Sato could play the piano, maybe they could play together some time? There was a keyboard in his room… but the time would be better spent studying than flailing about on some instruments. But, perhaps Otonashi was right. Perhaps it would be best to stop hanging out with Rokurou.<br/><br/>	Sato scoffed, lowering the bow. He was so lost in thought he'd forgotten to let go of the bowstring. He couldn't even focus on the shot. It was ok to lose yourself sometimes. But lately, the only thing Sato had been able to focus on was his schoolwork. Everything else, the same kind of thoughts intruded, like a leech you can't pull off.<br/><br/>	With a classic angsty sigh, Sato stepped away from the firing line and made his way back over to the equipment locker, tossing the bow and arrows he had borrowed into the one they came from. He'd forgotten his own equipment back at home again, so the crappy school-supplied ones had to make do. Shoving his hands into his pockets and eyes drawn to the floor, Sato made his way over to the exit, but upon pulling open the door and taking a step to leave, the boy stumbled backwards, clutching his nose. He'd walked straight into someone, and they recoiled similarly, people around them making soft alarmed noises. Sato looked over at who he had collided with, taking a second to recognize Mika followed by her squad.<br/><br/>	After a few moments of swearing and greeting, Mika grabbed Sato's hand and pulled him  outside, shutting the door behind them. Nobody else was around besides Mika's group and him besides the distant students headed out into the town. ""You've been hanging out with Rokurou a lot recently?"" Rento asked, hands subtly flexing in and out of fists.<br/><br/>	Sato frowned. ""Why is it an issue? I was just talking to him.""<br/><br/>	""I thought you said you wanted him out of the club,"" Mika said, adjusting her hair like she was trying to balance out the aggressiveness Rento was radiating. ""He's a pretty shitty club prez.""<br/><br/>	""Yeah, I know.""<br/><br/>	""Then why are you fucking around with him?""<br/><br/>	Sato swallowed. Why were they so pissed off about Rokurou? A month ago they were totally fine with each other, if not flirting around. ""I was just talking to him. About becoming club president. I didn't like creeping around behind him like we were going to Julius Caesar him, so I talked to him directly about how we're not happy with his management.""<br/><br/>	""Wait,"" Rento said, ""you want to be prez?""<br/><br/>	Maybe. ""Yeah."" But it's not like anything's going to change if he is or isn't. Probably just some minor influx in popularity around the range. More responsibility...<br/><br/>	""Well,"" Mika opened the door to the range, taking a step in before continuing. ""At least that's settled."" As she and her followers entered, Rokurou quietly slipped around and out, that 'archery yellow' sweater on. It was loose around his frame, a size too big perhaps. It was a sunny day again, and Rokurou blended in with the rays of the sun beaming down on them. He gave a friendly smile to Sato, the trademark Rokurou greeting at this point, before approaching the slightly shorter male.<br/><br/>	""How ya doing?"" Rokurou asked, standing between Sato and the sun. ""Wanna go study later?""<br/><br/>	""I was just about to ask the same."" Sato replied. ""Is it okay to ditch practice so soon? This is the kind of thing is why Mika and Co. are outing you. And, what you off to do?""<br/><br/>	""Ehhh… A prez's job is to take care of the club and do all that paperwork shit. I make sure it stays up and running. Do they want me to babysit everyone or something? I'm sure highschoolers can handle practice on their owns. I really only need to show up for a couple minutes; those guys have some sticks up their asses if you ask me."" Rokurou sighed, rubbing his eyes with his fingers. ""I'm just going out for a jog before heading home. Just meet me up at my place later.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou brushed past Sato, increasing his pace a little. ""Wait,"" Sato blurted out, swiveling around to face Rokurou again. ""I'll go with you.""<br/><br/>	He scoffed. ""In your uniform? And carrying your bag? I won't stop you, but that'd be pretty stupid""<br/><br/>	""Whatever,"" Sato shifted his weight onto his hip, ""it doesn't matter. The faster I get to your house the sooner we can get started, right?"" Rokurou snorted, turning around to get going again. Sato clutched his school bag under his arm and started to catch up, but as soon as he started to catch up, Rokurou took off running. It basically just became a game of chase.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">[. . . . .]</div></span><br/>	While running across town to in his uniform and school bag in tow sucked enough for the obviously more academic boy, the rain that suddenly started up did not help at all. They were drenched when they burst through the front door of Sato's house. The heavy rain appeared out of nowhere, and running half-way across the town wasn't much of an option to Sato. Sato's mother immediately scolded the two for tracking in mud and water, though she immediately switched over to fawning over Rokurou for some reason. Now that he thought about, it was rare for Sato to bring company over. Or rather, it was rare for anyone to come over.<br/><br/>	""A friend from school,"" Sato quickly explained. His mother fetched them a few towels from wherever, Sato drying himself off just enough to avoid tracking much rain in. ""We're just here to study.""<br/><br/>	""Oh, I won't keep you away from the books then! Get lots of work done, ok?"" She said, waving them away. It was the perfect method to get pestering parents off your back. The two made it only a few steps up, however, before his mom popped back in. ""Say, is your friend staying for dinner? I can make whatever you kids want today.""<br/><br/>	Before Sato could answer, Rokurou chimed in. ""Nabemono. I'm really feeling that right now. Make plenty too, I missed lunch today."" Sato pulled Rokurou up the stairs, both boys muttering some kind of thanks before absconding to Sato's room. The first order of business for Sato was to get out of his wet clothes, but Rokurou was already on it. Rokurou peeled off his sweater before they even got into the room, tossing it onto the floor by the door. Sato blinked, staring at him until Rokurou noticed him looking. ""Something wrong?""<br/><br/>	Sato looked away immediately, drawing his attention to the basket of laundry beside the door. ""No, nothing. Cover yourself please."" Sato fished a pair of grey shorts and a plain shirt from the basket before slipping into his room and changing, closing the door behind him. Rokurou barged in just as he slid into the navy blue shirt, plopping down on the chair by Sato's desk, towel hanging around his neck.<br/><br/>	""With what? None of your shit fits me."" He replied, the delay between the two points in conversation tangibly awkward. ""Throw my clothes into the drier for me if it bugs you so much.""<br/><br/>	""I'm not having you lounging around my house in your boxers for an hour, Roku."" Sato shook his head, pulling his textbooks out of his school bag. ""Whatever. Let's just get started. Pick, English or Chem?"" He held the two books like an assistant on a game show displaying the contestant's fabulous prizes.<br/><br/>	""What were you talking to Mika about?"" Rokurou asked, reclining in the wooden chair, displaying his torso more clearly, hopefully not intentionally Rokurou's abs were clearly defined, though not lean like one would see on a model or something. A muscular-by-necessity kind of fit, you could say.<br/><br/>	""Huh?"" <span class=""bb-i"">Wait why the hell am I studying his muscles oh no did he notice</span> ""Oh, what's with you people and questioning who I'm with? They were bugging me about you. I told them that they were being stupid, since you're doing fine as club prez.""<br/><br/>	""Cool,"" Rokurou said, in that 'ok sure alright honey' kind of way. Sato got lost in his thoughts for a second, but Rokurou jabbing a finger at his face brought his attention back quickly. ""Look, if it's bothering you so much, I'll put on something."" It was only then did Sato notice his face was starting to burn red. He wanted to say it was alright, but the way he was acting, it was for the best if they wanted to get any studying done.<br/><br/>	Rokurou pulled on some random white shirt that Sato had hanging off the back of the door. It was a bit of a tight fit but it accomplished the job of a shirt well enough. Having chosen English on his own, Sato set up the books like they usually did, except Rokurou didn't have any of his books so Rokurou just sat down next to Sato and ripped out a piece of paper from one of Sato's notebooks.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-center"">[. . . . .]</div></span><br/>	""You're so embarassing!""<br/><br/>	""What? In some places, it's considered polite to burp after a meal.""<br/><br/>	Sato sighed. ""Not in this house. And not while I'm still eating.""<br/><br/>	""Then you need to hurry up. We're already done."" Rokurou rose from his seat, tossing the still damp sweater onto his shoulder. ""I need to get going. I never told my dad that I was staying here. I can already tell you he's gonna be pissed.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou and Sato's mother exchanged formalities quickly before he bolted out of the house and down the street. It took him a moment, but Sato took after Rokurou as soon as he realized it. Rokurou was already half way down the block when Sato got out of the door. ""Wait! My shirt!""<br/><br/>	Rokurou stopped and turned back towards him, pedaling backwards as he shouted back. ""I'll give it back at school!""<br/><br/>	Sato watched Rokurou run down the street for a bit, not caring that he was running through every puddle he came across. Sato's mother stepped out beside Sato, looking up at the sky before the teen that was running away. The sun was peaking out from behind the clouds. ""What an interesting young man."" She simply said.<br/><br/>	""Yeah... interesting."" </div>"

A few had arranged for some study meets with their friends from other classes, others had given up on the midterms all together and were attempting to get others to come along for something fun to do whilst other were unbothered by all of it and just got on with their usual routine. Kotori, judging by the way she was as ever finishing her day's notes, belonged to the latter category - even if she was rather more nervous than such a thing might suggest. Whilst she kept up her studies as ever, the atmosphere whenever big tets were up and coming tended to get to her and left her a little unsure - she'd taken a lot longer on that math exercise than she ought to, she kept forgetting the exact translation of that one English words. With a small sigh she closed her notebook - she knew that dwelling over mistakes wouldn't do any good, but she just couldn't help it.<br/><br/>Looking up, she saw that most of the class had already left the room - a class that included Akane again after she'd shown up again on Tuesday. Kotori had wondered about the absence, but it wasn't really her place to just go up and ask her about it; bothering the girl just to satisfy her own curiosity. Heading out of the classroom with her bag over her shoulder, Kotori headed toward the Agriculture Club - with the rather lax nature of the club most of the days, it really was almost a kind of study meet in and of itself. She'd had to miss out on Monday unfortunately as there had been a rather unexpected influx of customers at the Flower Shop on that day so she'd gone home to help out - she still felt a little guilty, but there neither of the other two club members seemed to mind it; helping to ease the conscience at least somewhat. Come to think of it, she hadn't seen quite as many people dressed in suits about these last days; though they had made up a peculiarly large number of said customers. Reaching the clubroom, Kotori put those thoughts aside though.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club Room | After School</span><br/><br/>The Agriculture club was much the same as usual - Matthew was already there and watering the flowers in the room, which she noticed had again grown in number, and returned her quiet greeting with his usual cheer. She recalled an odd rumour about some claiming to have seen him tending the plants whispering in relief things about 'pretty flowers', 'nice sunlight' and something about creepy castles earlier in the week, but she had dismissed it as yet another outlandish rumour; much like those that cropped up whenever someone had been kidnapped. Seated at the table in the clubroom and with her notebooks before her, Kotori briefly shook her head as if to clear her thoughts of such things and instead focus on what was at hand.</div>"

Sagat had an earlier shift at the diner which meant that there was no MMA club meeting today.<br/><br/>Inoue had said that she had some errands to run and had denied his help. So Alexei was left to himself. Deciding that it can't hurt to check on Akane now, he decided to take a walk towards Anime and Manga club, hoping to meet her. He had heard the news that she had been the latest victim of the kidnappings and that the suits that suddenly seemed to have filled Warakuma were somehow related to her.<br/><br/>He had avoided visiting her in hospital because of this, Yakuza and he didn't have the best of relationship and he never knew which faction would come to the aide of his earlier harassers.

Since the ever nature enthusiast president had been excited about the piece of land the club had received, its members slowly began to work on the field during club hours. But even on days which did not fall on a club meeting, one would see the dedicated club president planting seeds, sprinkling fertilizer or watering the seeds about the premises. Seeing such dedication was quite admirable, Shizuka thought to herself as she chuckled softly. As such, she thought to help out a little today, seeing as she had some time on her hands, while most clubs on this week before the exams were not having meetings.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Hey Shizu!

Chuckling awkwardly with an apologetic expression as he scratched the back of his head was none other than the agriculture club president, Matthew. When the female turned to face the upperclassman, he started, <font color=""#aba000"">""Sorry about that, didn't mean to surprise you. But you sure surprised me by being here, I didn't expect you guys to be here around the week before exams.""</font><br/><br/>After calming herself down from the initial shock, Shizuka flashed a soft smile as she parted her lips to respond, <font color=""violet"">""I-It's alright, Ha-Harv..

I had some free time so I thought to drop by and assist you with the watering, at least.""</font> Hearing her reply, the foreign male grinned and patted her shoulder in appreciation.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""That's nice of you, Shizu, I appreciate the help!""</font>, Matt exclaimed as he laughed light heartedly and let Shizuka continue what she was doing previously. She could hear a humming time from the other from time to time, which was a little more lively than the silence from when she was working alone. It was certainly nice to be working with club members, or with other people in general, the raven haired maiden whispered to herself. Matt turned to look at her, wondering if she were talking to him but continued planting some seeds while humming when he saw that it was not the case.<br/><br/>-------<br/><br/>Few droplets of rain splashed on the ground as it alerted the two agriculture club members that it was to start pouring down soon. To take refuge from the inevitable rain, they ran towards the entrance to the school building and not long after, it had started to rain heavily. <font color=""#aba000"">""Looks like we didn't have to water the seeds after all,""</font> Matt chuckled slightly, gazing at the raining scenery.<br/><br/>Shizuka giggled softly and nodded, agreeing to the upperclassman's statement.

Studying day and night was quite exhausting so this visit was a little reward of sorts to herself and a stress relieving time.<br/><br/>Stepping into the cafe with a pair of polished, heeled black shoes, Shizu was greeted by her fellow workmates, who were dressed in futuristic military uniforms one would see in mecha anime like Gundam, and lead to a table. Kenji, the manager and owner of the cafe, noticed the girl and approached, also with the intention of taking her order himself. <span class=""bb-b"">""Welcome, Shizu! How's your studies coming along?

Admittedly, she studied hard only so she could justify spending way too much time away from home, usually flirting with a girl somewhere. If she kept up her grades, that was just one less excuse to be used against her.<br/><br/>The best way of internalising one's knowledge was to pass it on to others, and in the process of teaching reinforce the information learnt. So Jun was actually hanging out with her classmates for once, helping them cover the material they were revising by coaching them along. In her usual fashion, however, these classmates were all girls and being subject to her usual charm. She toned it down somewhat, since her reputation in school wasn't the greatest, and any overt flirting was likely to just fuel the degenerate rumours even more.<br/><br/>""You missed the negative sign here, that's why your answer is a negative number instead of positive."" Jun explained, pointing to the part in the working where the mistake had been made. ""It's little details like that are important, like the rose scent from the shampoo you used this morning.""<br/><br/>There was a few giggles at the joke, and Jun drew a blush from the girl before they all returned to their work. Well, the girls did. Jun had done all the questions in the workbook at least twice over and was simply going through her own notes. She didn't like being disrupted by questions in the middle of solving problems anyway, something her kendo training had drilled into her.<br/><br/>An hour later, Jun was done helping her classmates and simply walked through the school aimlessly, taking her time on the way to the main entrance. Her path just happened to cross outside the Manga Club's clubroom, and the sign reminded her that she had been meaning to return a book she had borrowed from one of the club members. She knocked on the door before opening it, and noticed familiar faces inside. ""Ah, Hanekawa-san, you're back?"" She hadn't been to the kendo club at all recently, and so had no chance to cross paths with Akane. ""Well, I just came to return a manga I borrowed from someone in the club. I'll just leave it here.""</div>"

Waiting nervously in the silence, she fidgeted in her seat as her eyes watched the sketches being looked through by the upperclassman. What broke the silence before Rui did was the girl, who was responsible for the sketches, reasoning out in case of dissatisfaction from him, <font color=""violet"">""Um... I understand if they don't suit to your tastes. This is the first time I've designed clothes for someone el-- Oh! Really? I'm truly glad you think so, thank you!""</font><br/><br/>Instead of earning a negative response, the expression of the girl in school uniform brightened at the positive reaction given with an upward curve upon her lips. The question she was asked next was expected as she parted her lips to answer, <font color=""violet"">""Well, I originally intended the designs to be of costume type but some of them are trendy enough to be worn on casual occasions. At least, that's what I believe.""</font><br/><br/>Tearing a piece of paper from her notepad, she scribbled an address on it before passing it over to Rui. <font color=""violet"">""If you're interested in having them made, please drop by this tailoring shop and ask for me, Shizu. My household is at a walking distance away so it'll be no problem.""</font> While she didn't mention it to the other student, it was one of the tailoring shops that her mother owns. Concealing her identity from the upperclassman was to be kept in tact, after all.<br/><br/>While they discussed about the sketches made by Shizu, her orders arrived and were placed in front of her. Kenji, who brought her cake and tea remained by their side in case Rui was ready to order. <font color=""violet"">""Thank you Kenji-san. Shinichi-senpai, you may order when you've already something in mind,"" </font> she suggested as her hand lifted the glass of cold green tea from atop the table and took a sip from the straw.</div>"

His mind hadn't wavered, and unlike the city, there weren't enough distractions to keep him from studying when he needed to...

As a result, school was always let out very early, but no one was up for clubs or hanging out, because the next day would be immediately followed by another test from a different subject. At the very least the students knew which was next.<br/><br/>Rui's pen couldn't stop moving as he blazed through the last day of tests. He was fairly confident in what his end result might be.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma High - After School<br/>23/5/2015 Saturday</div></div><br/><br/>Rui could hear the groans and sighs of relief as they finally reached the weekend. Saturday like every week was a half-day, but considering exams just ended, they were let out even earlier than usual, so it was lunch time, or should be. It was time for the students to await their exam results. Saturday and Sunday was now to be spent in anxiety or relaxation, depending on the person. Rui was going to relax though... Maybe he should go to the arcade again. Ever since midterms he hadn't had a chance to go there... Or maybe go to a club? Nah... They shouldn't be active at all at the moment... In any case, what was he to do today... He watched out for anyone he knew on his way off campus.</div>"

It'd be a gift of sorts from me.""</font> Truthfully, it brought joy to the seamstress at the thought of someone wearing her handiwork that she didn't really mind so much about the cost. In fact, she planned to only charge for the fabrics and materials used if her client was a friend. It wasn't like she was a professional yet anyway. Labor charge didn't matter all that much to her, due to the fact that she enjoyed customizing all these costumes.<br/><br/>While she didn't expect to be assisted for the midterms by another upperclassman, Rui taught her what he knew about the subject she was studying for, English. What gave her most trouble was in the pronunciation of words where the help from the upperclassman came in, carefully pronouncing each words before Shizu attempted to follow.<br/><br/>It took awhile for her to sound a little less unnatural but at least the results were showing. As the little tutorial came to a close, the male bid farewell and a good luck to which she returned back to him with a sincere smile and a bow of gratitude for the assistance. Not too long after his leave, Shizu left the cafe with a few goodbyes to her manager and co workers.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Otonashi Residence || May 23 SAT: After School</div><br/><font color=""violet"">""Phew...""</font> <span class=""bb-i"">Thud.</span> A relieved sigh escaped the girl's lips as she fell backwards onto her soft, comfy bed. After the exams were over, Shizuka immediately made her way home after a few casual exchanges between her friends about how the exam went for each of them. As usual, Rinko dreaded the inevitable, terrible result that she will receive next week while Nozomi was as confident as Shizuka in terms of passing. From the help of her upperclassmen from the previous weeks, the exams were not as difficult as they used to be thanks to their understandable explanations.<br/><br/>Staring up at the empty ceiling of her room, she wondered for a moment on what she could do with the rest of the day. A little moment of thinking later, Shizuka lifted herself off her bed to grab a lavender PSP from within the closet. <font color=""violet"">""Otome games it is!""</font> <span class=""bb-i"">Click.</span></div>"

In his mind he was anyways.<br/><br/>Ryan stretched his out his arms and felt various bones pop and crack. He should get a good workout in, he's been getting lazy lately.

Rather than be glad about it though, it served more to make her nervous - it wasn't the first silly little mistake she'd caught barely in the nick of time; leaving her to fear that she might have missed others too. Unfortunately, there was no more time to check as the teacher announced that time was up and the papers were to be passed forwards. Sitting in the second row from the front, Kotori handed quite a few papers, together with her own, to her front-most seated classmate as before breathing a small, inaudible sigh. Whilst she'd kept up her studies and note-keeping all throughout the school term and seemed to be able to answer the questions reasonably quickly and proficiently, she still couldn't shake that nagging feeling that she might have made some mistakes - like on that math question, or the translation, or...<br/><br/>Shaking her head, Kotori decided to put those thoughts aside - or at least, try to - as she instead packed her writing utensils together before slinging her bag over her shoulder as she stood up. Looking about, there were a variety of reactions to the end of the midterms - some were looking hopeful, others a little apprehensive; some seemed rather cheerful in a 'out of sight, out of mind' kind of way and the occasional few had the unmistakable dread at the upcoming results written all over their faces. Nonetheless, most were at least in some way happy that it was over and that the rest of the day could be spent however they wished; a few already discussing plans for this day or the next among themselves.<br/><br/>Having made no plans for herself nor any scheduled meetings in the agriculture club keeping her at school, Kotori headed out of the classroom - for once with the majority of her classmates rather than after them - whilst pondering what to do with the day. Her mother had insisted that she focus solely on her studies and thus had no shopping duties or store tending to do the whole week - though she did feel a little guilty about it, Kotori was thankful as she had been able to review the upcoming material each day. Still, it did leave her with little else to do now that the midterms were over so that she mulled over her options whilst walking through the hallways down to the main entrance. Glancing at her watch, she saw that it was around lunchtime - the school day had ended rather earlier than usual thanks to the midterms. Having arrived at the main entrance, Kotori stood beside it as she mused on her next course of action - should she head straight home and prepare something for lunch or rather get something to eat in town?</div>"

Now that he thought about it, he didn't know her actual name, just her maid name, Shizu. Well it probably wasn't that big a deal. He wondered if he could wear one or two of those outfits into the dungeons... It'd be pretty fun, he knew Noboru and Leiko would be the most down for that.<br/><br/>The piece of paper had the shop name and address on it. The shop was unsurprisingly placed in the Shinza Shopping District, though at the same time it was on the side that was closer to the main new urban shopping centers. Soon he arrived to 'Otonashi Tailors'. It seemed like a fairly regular store, a bit on the high side, but tailors considered that was not unexpected... What should he do? Should he just ask if Shizu was in? Was that even her name? That was her maid name right...?<br/><br/>Well in any case, hopefully she was there so he didn't have to go through that awkwardness.

This edition had several new love interests to choose from and each individual having their own unique, romantic story. Shizuka giggled softly and blushed from time to time from the cliche shoujo lines the voices spouted.

Even with the midterms done, she still hadn't been able to really calm down; leaving her restless over the whole weekend. She'd spent equal measures of time trying to focus on the book she was reading as she had on reviewing her notes and textbooks just to make sure that she'd really gotten that one problem right which she hadn't been sure about at the time. Between that and another tiring appointment on Saturday, she'd found herself in a constant state of unrest - even tending to the flowers in the back of the shop hadn't quite the calming effect that she'd hoped for. Still, she pushed those thoughts aside as she headed to school - what was done was done and there was nothing that could change the results after all, no matter how many mistakes she may have made.<br/><br/>Arriving at school, she noticed that there was a crowd gathered at the noticeboard - whilst it wasn't unusual to find various small groups of friends meeting up there before heading to class, they were all in one place this time. Kotori quickly realised the cause of it - undoubtedly the results of the midterms. Some of the students spared the list just a glance to check for their own names whilst others hung around to discuss the results amongst themselves, making it rather easy to get close enough to read the list over. <font color=""green"">""First years... second years... class 2...""</font> Kotori mumbled almost soundlessly as she scanned the list for her own class - but didn't find her name in the usual spot of fourth or fifth. A little disheartened she looked further down but didn't find her name there either - causing her to slump ever so slightly. She really had made some mistakes - and enough to make her score too low to even be listed.<br/><br/>At least, that's what she'd thought as she turned to walk away and nearly walked into a classmate; giving a small bow in apology as best she could amongst all the other students before heading off to class - or she would if said classmate didn't recognise her as well. ""Ah, Shirohane-san? Congratulations!"" Kotori blinked a little confused at him, the odd remark catching her off-guard as it took her a moment before responding. <font color=""green"">""Eh? Uhm, th-thank... you?""</font> she said - before noticing that a few more eyes seemed to be turned her way. Both uncomfortable with the sudden attention and rather confused about its reason, she glanced back at the test rankings - and this time scanned her class' list upward rather than down from her usual placement. <font color=""green"">""...eh?""</font> was all she could say when she saw her name.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | After School</span><br/><br/>Terrible - that would be the simplest way to describe the school day for Kotori. Not only had she felt more than a few pairs of eyes laid on her throughout the day, but the teacher had even taken the liberty to read out the listing; as if trying to make absolutely sure that she wouldn't be able to escape everyone's notice. Had she not felt such scrutiny, she might have realised that such attention was likely just going to be fleeting and not malignant, but it still felt as if half the school was staring at her to the quiet girl. She practically buried her face behind her textbooks all throughout the day; trying to make herself as invisible as possible - though not very successfully, much to her chagrin.<br/><br/>Kotori felt no small measure of relief when the bell rang and signalled the end of the school day - at which point most people's interests turned to less school-related topics instead. Much as usual, she packed her things only after finishing her notes - which she'd had to hastily decline lending to one or two classmates throughout the day; a request she hadn't expected - albeit with a slightly more tired expression behind her glasses for once. Still, the school day was over and the classroom was quickly emptying out - all that was left was one place which would at least prove quieter.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club | After School</span><br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Excuse me...""</font> Kotori said in a low voice, slowly opening the door following a brief wait after her initial knock and then entering the clubroom. Much as expected, she saw Matthew already present and busying himself with watering the plants that were found all throughout the room - including another new one or two on the table in the center of the room. With her entrance being as quiet as ever, it was only when Matthew actually turned around that he noticed the girl now seated at the table and looking the potted flowers over. <font color=""#aba000"">""Ah, if it isn't our little Miss Highscore!""</font> he said with a wave, both his tone and smile holding his usual cheer. Kotori merely gave a rather wry half-smile at that before answering. <font color=""green"">""Ah... th-thank you, Harvester-senpai,""</font> she said, giving a bow as well as she could before returning her attention to the flowers before her.</div>"

What's the celebration? Did she miss the memo or something? Looking around, it would seem that the girl had found the source of all the confusion, the midterm results are out.

Making her way to the crowd, the girl tried to look at her name from the list, undoubtedly anxious to see her mediocre score.<br/><br/>She shifted uncomfortably as her eyes scanned throughout the list, what if it was something lower than 79? Oh god, she'd never be able to face the reality of it all and probably retreat to her little cave of wonders for the next semester or so...Then, her eyes locked on to the name she had sought out for what seemed like an eternity, there it was in plain sight for everyone to see. A whopping 99...Ayano blinked twice, even rubbing them for a while, just to make sure she was seeing straight and it wasn't all some illusion she was forced to believe. How...How was that even possible? She could've sworn she got a handful of the questions wrong, well...not that she was complaining but still. The girl didn't even take it seriously as most of the others did, maybe it's a sign, an omen of bad things to come...<br/><br/>To her dismay, a number of people in her class have already started talking about her, her paranoia sinking in. She probably thinks they're badmouthing her for having such a high grade, clearly someone else was deserving of that grave. With a sigh, Ayano sheepishly made her way to her classroom, hoping that her being the talk of the town would subside sooner or later.<br/><br/></div>"

Why did everyone care so much about their scores? All they needed to do was check quickly and then head to class. Instead they watched it like vultures and gossiped about who got the lowest and highest scores, it made him a little sick to be honest. At least the midterms were over though, he was really stressed out over being forced to take the exams even though he was such a late transfer student.<br/><br/>Ryan pushed through the crowds and got to the board to see his own score. It shouldn't be too bad, he did a lot of studying after all. He'll probably do a lot better on the next exams. Oh god he probably failed the midterms, this was not going to help his case about wanting to be in public school. <br/><br/>""Where am I, where am I? Oh, there I am.""<br/><br/>Ryan was surprised. He actually got a decent grade, surprising considering the circumstances. He probably aced English and did poorly in Japanese while doing average in everything else. That makes sense.

He was showing up pretty often to the club. Ryan chuckled a little as he turned the pages.<br/><br/>""If I'm not careful I'm going to end up as an Otaku with terrible grades. Heh.""<br/><br/>Ryan shook his head and went back to reading his manga. He should buy some more of this when he gets the chance. That lady at the store was weird, but nice.</div>"

This was made even difficult as the other students began to whisper, their eyes also locking onto the girl as Masahide turned his gaze to the window nearest to him. As the teacher read off the result of the exams, he couldn't help but cringe as he heard his name. As class progressed, the boy's attention to his teacher's words were tentative- many times finding himself running through the questions that he could remember before realizing he was slowly dirfting off. It wasn't till then that Masa finally noticed the effect of his fatigue, cursing under his breath as he interlaced his finger, letting his elbow's rest atop his desk as his arms formed a sharp arch before him. All throughout class, he remained silent, answering only when spoken to by the teacher and no one else.

A frail spark of nervousness rose in his chest before he quelled it- nerves were non-conducive to his mental well-being. He walked over to the wall where the exam scores had been posted, took a deep breath, and sought out his name.

It felt better than sitting at his desk until everyone was gone. It was the kind of rush an white-collar worker would get when they skip a day of work. He would've said to anybody that asked about it that he was avoiding any chance of meeting Rokurou, but that definitely was not it, for Sato was not following the flow out to the main doors. Instead, he was headed for the bathrooms, and that feeling of freedom was drowned in his nausea. Crashing into a stall, the teen fell to his knees and threw up whatever he could into the toilet. It wasn't anything he'd eaten, nor was it self-induced. It had came on like a disgusting thought, unsolicited and undesirable.<br/><br/>	Sato flushed the toilet, cleaned himself up, and left the room before anybody could come in. Half-stumbling out of the washroom, he didn't feel quite stable enough to walk home just yet, so he found his way up to the roof. He'd only ever gone up there once before, on the same week before exams last year. The day was going the same way the past five minutes had gone, just with less actual vomiting. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe it's a stress thing</span>, Sato considered as he reached the final steps of the staircase. The door was supposed to be 'locked', but pretty much everyone knew you could just wriggle it open. None of the staff had said anything about students going up there yet, so Sato assumed they didn't care. There was a fence and that had to mean something.<br/><br/>	Thankfully, nobody seemed to be up on the roof, so Sato found a seat against the fence, resting his chin on his knees. He wasn't sure if people on the roof were visible to people on the ground. He had never made anyone out from the ground, but how often did he really look up there? It didn't really matter though. The worst that would happen is that some teacher would scold him and send him home. His record was too clean to provoke any worse of a punishment, and it wasn't like someone would beat him up just for sitting there.<br/><br/>	Unfortunately, the peace was short-lived. Sato lifted his head as the sound of footsteps got closer, falling to a gentle human rhythm. A moment of silence passed, before the familiar face of Naomi peaked around the corner. He wasn't sure what kind of expression appeared on her face when she saw him, but regardless, she approached him.<br/><br/>	""Hey Sato..."" Naomi started, playing with her pink nails as she stood in front of him. ""I, uh... are you ok?"" Just bringing it up seemed to make her figit with awkwardness.<br/><br/>	Sato lowered his brow. It was an appropriate question, but the fact that she knew... ""What?""<br/><br/>	""I was coming to go talk to you, and um, you ran by me looking like you were about to die. Your face was really green. I was just wondering if you were ok?""<br/><br/>	""Oh."" Sato looked to the ground, unsure of what to feel. ""I appreciate your concern, Naomi, but I'm fine. Sorry if I made you worried or something. But wait... you were coming to talk to me?"" <br/><br/>	""O-oh, yeah. Rokurou, the archery club president, as you obviously know, because you're in the archery team... wanted me to thank you for tutoring him, and to give this back. He wasn't sure if you were coming to practice today or not."" Naomi handed him a carefully folded shirt, the one Rokurou had borrowed almost a week ago. It was obvious that she had redone the folding before giving it to Sato.<br/><br/>	Sato blinked, unaware that they knew eachother. ""Huh? You know him?"" The rest of her message came as no surprise. Not even the thanks. That was the least Rokurou could've done after those nights of torture.<br/><br/>	""You didn't know?"" Naomi said, giving a slight tilt of the head, just ever so slightly more embarassed. ""Rokurou and I are, uhh, a couple... I met him back when I first moved here, and he was really cute, so I couldn't just say no when he... ah, you don't need to hear that dumb stuff! I'm sorry, sometimes I just keep blabbering when I don't mean to.""<br/><br/>	Okay. This was... okay. Now wasn't the time for relationships anyway, what with exams and college coming up. He reminded himself that nothing would last past entrance exams anyway. There was no time for a girl when he was supposed to be studying for highschool, and later on med school. But Rokurou definitely wasn't following the same path, so it made sense someone who would have the time for her would get her. Sato nodded. ""Nobody told me. I gotta go home now, I promised I'd be home earlier than this."" <br/><br/>	He headed over to the exit, but before he could leave, Naomi stopped him with a hand on his shoulder. She quickly unearthed something wrapped in a bunch of paper and handed it over to him. Sato curiously opened the top part of it, just enough to see the biscuit cookie inside. The boy looked up at Naomi with confusion. ""They're like weird little good luck thingies."" She explained. ""They're a little untraditional, but the girls at my old school used to bake them before exams, so I thought I'd make some for all my new friends here, you know?"" Sato took the baked good from her and nodded slowly, crumpling the paper wrapping back together as best as he could. ""They're a little on the greasy side, so maybe... don't eat it until tommorow, okay?""<br/><br/>	""Thank you very much, Naomi. It means a lot to me."" Maybe that was too much. Before he could decide on whether it was or not, Sato ducked passed the door and made his way down the stairs. The same nausea he had before came back, but instead of throwing up again, Sato just felt plainly sick. Taking Naomi's advice to heart, Sato shoved the package into his school bag. <br/><br/>	Taking a look at the sky as he stepped out of the school, dark clouds were moving in... Was it going to rain again?   <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Sato sighed as he slid open the front door, kicking off his shoes without a care. His hair was still dripping with rain, clothes soaked through. There wasn't anything to use to dry himself within grasp, nor did his mother seem to be anywhere, so Sato just quietly walked up to his room. A creak of the floor boards caught his attention, and he stopped in front of the door. Sato's mother ghosted over to him, passing a towel over. He grabbed it, but didn't bother drying himself at all. ""Sato..."" she said, but only continued with a concerned look.<br/><br/>	""I'm fine."" Sato opened the door, looking down at the puddle of water collected by his feet. ""Don't bother me. I need to study for the midterms."" Without another word from either party, Sato slipped away into his room, shutting the door behind him harder than he intended to. Changing into something dry, and covering his hair with the towel, Sato collapsed onto his bed. He'd studied enough.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 18TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Mid-morning</span><br/>	Midterms had finally arrived, and Sato was ready. Somehow, he'd managed to get some sleep the past week-end, almost forgetting everything but the exams. He had to force himself out of bed on Sunday to do some last-minute studying. Now, the real test was in front of him. Flipping open to the first page, he could answer most of the questions with relative ease, but he still had to stop on some questions for a while to work it out carefully. He felt confident he'd do well.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	And the midterms were over as quickly as they began. Sato had simply gone home and studied for the remaining subjects, going to bed early, after each test. For once, exams were a welcomed distraction from life. Or maybe everything else was a distraction from the tests. Either way, Sato was finally finished, having just put the last word down for the final question. While it wasn't too hard, it wasn't awfully easy, and he knew exactly what he got wrong. Still, though, Sato felt good about his results. For all that'd happened recently he felt on point the whole week. Now, all that was left was to wait for exams Monday. Going to practice would be a waste of time, seeing as nobody had the energy to go after a week of tests, so Sato simply went home. His plans for the evening consisted of kicking back with a Neo Featherman F marathon and reading some of the novel he started a week or so ago. Yeah... that sounded good.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 25TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Morning</span><br/>	The exam results were finally posted, and Sato was among one of the first to check them. Starting from the top of the third-years, it didn't take long for him to find his name. Best in his class, second highest for his year. Silently pleased with what he'd gotten, Sato continued looking through the lists for any familiar names. Mika, Rento, Dragunov, and Harvester all passed with mediocre scores, while Rokurou actually got above 80. All that studying paid off for him, it would seem. <br/><br/>	Sato was about to walk away when he thought of something. The full names of everyone were listed here, and obviously any first year that went to Warakuma High would be there. He looked over at the first years' results, scanning down the list until he came across an Otonashi. Shizuka Otonashi. Seeing that name revived the idea that she was the maid cafe girl. No, it wasn't an idea anymore. Sato knew it was true. There was no way it couldn't not be her. Whether or not he would pursue the topic, however, was still being debated. Otonashi had a reason to hide her job, so would it be rude to try to talk to her about it? If that question was on the exam, Sato knew he would've gotten it wrong.<br/><br/>	Pushing it to the back of his mind, Sato slipped out of the crowd and started on his way over to his homeroom. It was an archery day too, wasn't it...? Now that exams were over, it was probably back to being active. The idea of going over there and practicing seemed nice after a week of studying, test-writing, and show-watching, but with Rokurou and/or Mika and company there, how fun would it really end up being? Letting out a tired sigh as he plopped down at his desk, Sato flipped open his books for his first class just as the bell tolled.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><span class=""bb-b"">MAY 28TH 2015, Thursday<br/>Dusk</span><br/> <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s61TmfE3zY4"" rel=""nofollow"">The rain began late in the evening</a>, pounding down on the town of Warakuma, only letting up as Sato waited at Rokurou's place. Normally Sato would describe the town as some sleepy backwater, but with what had been going on, it'd be a lie to call the place quiet. Cult activity was on the rise, midterms finished last Friday, and archery club was as problematic as ever. Just the day before had the two 'sides' of the club finally dealt with the palpable tension between them. Sides in air quotes seeing as it was really just some petty drama Mika was starting with Rokurou that she decided to drag everyone else into. For once, Sato was glad to have skipped practice. The murmurs of members in Sato's class were enough to gather some vague gist of what had happened the day before.<br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">Born in the south, at home in the north, we could be anywhere you want...</span>"" Rokurou stopped under the awning, folding up the cheap umbrella he had used to get there dry. ""That song's been stuck in my head for weeks. It's driving me insane."" His voice sounded... strained, for lack of a better word. Like he was trying to forget something. <br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">Now you're takin' me down, where you grew up, I wish I had known you when we were young.</span>"" Sato sang as he stepped away from the wall. ""Is that how it went?""<br/><br/>	He chuckled softly. ""I can't believe you remember it too. So why're you staking out my front door? You some stalker hoping to get some creep shots on me? I'll tell you now, the front door isn't a good hide-out.""<br/><br/>	""I came over to talk to you about yesterday's practice."" Sato looked directly at the other boy, clearly serious about the topic.<br/><br/>	""Yesterday's practice?"" Rokurou frowned a bit. ""You weren't even there. What's there to talk about?""<br/><br/>	""Ugh, Rokurou… Can you at least tell me what happened? I'm very aware I didn't attend.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou thought for a moment, figuring out a quick way to summarize it. ""They bitched me out and I told them off. There ya go. That's it."" He went to open the door, but before he could get his hand on it, Sato grabbed his wrist.<br/><br/>	""Tell me what happened.""<br/><br/>	Rokurou ripped his hand away from Sato, visibly pissed off now. ""Drop it, okay? If you care so much about it then you should've been there.""<br/><br/>	""Stop being so immature!"" Sato raised his voice, but immediately hushed himself when he realized Rokurou's family might hear them. ""This concerns me too, so just tell me what happened.""<br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-i"">I'm</span> immature?! Says the one who double-crosses everyone left and right! <span class=""bb-i"">'You're doing fine as club prez'</span> my ass, you just want to take my one fucking respectable role in the school so you can jerk over yourself more. As if being one of the top students wasn't enough!"" Rokurou was standing over Sato as he said it, Sato's back hitting the wall when the taller boy took a step forward.<br/><br/>	""No, what?! Calm down! I'm trying to help you with this. We both know they're being irrational about this.""<br/><br/>	""So you say you're on my side and then you go help them with ousting me? Go fuck yourself.""<br/><br/>	""No, that's not--""<br/><br/>	""Shove off, prick."" Rokurou said, ripping Sato away from the wall by the collar of his shirt. ""I'm done with you.""<br/><br/>	Sato stared at him with a dumbfounded expression. Before Sato could think of anything else to say, Rokurou went inside with a huff, slamming the door behind him. That... was a catastrophic failure. Perhaps his timing wasn't right. Asking so soon after it happened wasn't a smart idea in hindsight, seeing as he was going to be peeved to some degree no matter what had happened. He let out a tired sigh. This week hadn't gone as well as he'd wanted it to. It was just a mess of studying and frustration.<br/><br/>	To top it off, the rain had picked up again. He had ran to Rokurou's house without an umbrella, but it was a lot lighter back when it started. The storm seemed to have came back with a vengeance.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	It had already gotten dark, and the rain was showing no signs of letting up. Sato wasn't even half-way home by the time he gave up. Why did Rokurou have to live on the other side of town? Cold and wet, the teen trudged through the dead shopping district. Most of the shops were starting to close, lights barely visible through the darkness of the rainstorm.<br/><br/>	As he walked down an alley, Sato tried to find solace in the sound of rain beating on roofs and walls, but the shivers that rattled his body were too distracting. To make matters worse, the boy suddenly tripped somehow, sending him straight to the ground. How he managed to slip on a rain puddle, he couldn't fathom, but he had, and any part of him that wasn't soaked now was. Grumbling to himself about it, he rose back to his feet, futilely trying to shake the water off his limbs. It was as he realized the uselessness of it did he hear footsteps. On both ends of the alley.<br/><br/>	Sato chalked it up to his imagination and continued on, but before he could exit the alley, figures in dark clothes emerged from behind the corners. It was hard to make out anything about them but everything in this situation screamed stranger danger. Sato knew there were too many of them to fight back or even evade, and before he could understand what was happening, the boy was grappling with people that had come from behind him. Powerful arms and swift blows subdued the teen quickly, but now that they were so close to him, Sato could see them more clearly. Hooded robes shadowed their features, turning them into silhouettes on the night. Were these... could they...?<br/><br/>	Sato shouted out, ""Who are y--"" but they smothered his mouth with a cloth before he could even finish a sentence, muffling any sound that he tried to make. A chemical scent began to fill his nostrils, and Sato started struggling again. The men's grip were too strong to break free from. Seconds and minutes passed, and the world began to spin. As he started to lose feeling, he could feel his body being lowered until the wet pavement met his back. Footsteps, panting, heaving. It all melted away as the pleasant smell took over his consciousness...</div>"

Turning, Kotori saw the third member of the club enter before speaking up in greeting. Whilst the club president returned it in cheerful kind, another wry sort-of smile came across Kotori's face as the younger girl congratulated her on the midterm results. Wishing - not for the first time that day - that the results weren't posted publicly and thus putting her on the spot so much, Kotori also assumed that she probably didn't harbour any ill will in her words. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, th-thank you, Otonashi-san,""</font> she said, the slight discomfort being masked by the usual quietness of her voice - only enhanced by the fact that she didn't really know how to return the compliments. Luckily though, Matthew made that worry obselete when he soon brought up a different topic instead and, as usual, taking up the majority of the speaking part in the conversations of the day.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Thursday, May 28 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>""Well, that's all for today. Remember to review the material at home,"" the teacher declared as the bell rang; signalling the end of another schoolday. Kotori was thankful for it - though not quite as much as at the start of the week. Luckily for her, the excitement and interest in the midterms had rather quickly died down and was replaced by the usual daily life at school: worrying about upcoming tests, club activities, plans for what to do after school and the like. Finishing her notes before packing up, Kotori glanced out of the window - the skies were starting to take a slightly worrying colour. Though she had an umbrella in her schoolbag, she still hoped the rain would hold off until after she got home once agriculture club was over.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma | After School</span><br/><br/>Kotori looked up at the sky again once she left through the school's main entrance. The sky had definitely darkened - it was definitely going to rain later today, though her hope of it only starting once she got home seemed to be holding up. She began on her way home, having no further stops planned after having just said her goodbyes to her two fellow agriculture club members for the day, as she let her thoughts wander on what to do with the evening. With her mother being most elated over her midterm results, she'd been more than happy to be cooking all through the week and even assuring her that she could take it easy and wouldn't need to help out at the shop for the moment. Any words to the contrary were rapidly shot down, thus leaving her with both free evenings and a slight feeling of guilt thereover.<br/><br/>Of course, there was the day's material and her notes to go over - with the new term starting, most subjects were starting on new topics or continuing on from previous ones. And just because she'd gotten particularly lucky on her midterms didn't mean she could just sit back in the new term, either - but even so, she could hardly just fill an entire evening with textbooks. Instead, she'd picked up another secondhand book or two (or six) at the local bookstore café, one of which she'd finished just the other day; leaving her to ponder which one to continue with today. There was that novel about the strange happenings in an old countryside mansion which had sounded rather intriguing - but on the other hand, there was that romance novel which, whilst sounding more than just a little cheesy, still had piqued her interest equally.<br/><br/>In her thoughts, she hadn't actually been looking where she had been going - not that it was necessary, seeing as she took this same route to and from school every day. Yet only now that she actually looked about did Kotori notice that there was something slightly odd about her surroundings - there were a lot fewer people about than usual. For a moment, she glanced about a little nervously - before shaking her head at her own silliness. She must have read too many mystery novels - of course people would prefer to stay indoors when there rainclouds were forming overhead. Yet at the same time, she couldn't quite shake the silly notion - even as she looked ahead and noticed a small group of people standing at the corner she would usually turn before reaching the shopping district. There was no real reason to suspect anything - but that little voice asking 'What if?' that always seemed to come to the fore whenever one hears a scary story or the like, no matter how unbelieveable, still made her take a turn slightly earlier and go down one of the alleys which would get her home equally as fast.<br/><br/>It was only when she'd gone a few steps that she let out a small sigh at herself. What was she doing, making herself afraid of a few people standing around? For all she knew, they might have seen her too and thought her most rude for turning away like that - she really should have just kept going straight on. Preoccupied with her own hangups, it would take her a few moments to notice that there was someone else coming up the same small road - if one could call it that, seeing as it was more of an alleyway. Moving to one side preemptively to let them pass by before they even got close, she kept on, her eyes lowered - only to suddenly stop in her tracks when she suddenly saw the person's feet before her. Looking up in surprise, she reflexively bowed before speaking a quiet <font color=""green"">""Ah, excuse...""</font> but not getting further than that.<br/><br/>Looking at the person, completely draped in dark clothing just standing there, she felt a small shiver down her spine - but before she could say anything else or even turn around, an arm suddenly wrapped itself around her waist and a hand was placed over her mouth. Kotori's eyes went wide, the confusion rapidly replaced by fear. Her cry, however, only came out as a muffled <font color=""green"">""Mmf!""</font> - as she realised that it wasn't actually a hand on her mouth, but rather a cloth which was pressed against not only that but also her notice. She tried to struggle against the grip, but to little avail - without the heart-pounding panic clouding her every thought and sense, she might also have noticed the rather odd smell of the fabric as she kept trying to free both her arms and her airways; the cloth stifling her breathing and only furthering her fear.<br/><br/>Her thoughts were racing - what was- who? Why? For... but... and-? She could barely finish even a single thought as all her instincts told her to get free, to run - even as an all-encompassing weariness came over her, both in body and mind. She felt herself slump to the ground, only avoiding a complete collapse due to the vice-like grip of her unknown assailant, even as her thoughts became slower, less coherent. Her vision started to go blurry, sounds became muffled and only now did she realise there was a strange smell in her nose - but it too was warped beyond any recognition as, finally, her mind drifted off into unconsciousness...</div>"

I'll be taking him and Riku to scout the second dungeon.

Whether or not they did in a world with such nonsensical physical values, was up for question.<br/><br/>In any case, they had a few minutes to decide party setup. Kazuki had already begun scouting out Heartbreak Hospital, as it was decided Rui and his party would go down Strawman Hospital. They weren't sure who was in which, heck if these were both connected, exploring and finding the final area may be a more arduous task than anticipated, so having two parties to cover more ground was a good idea. In any case... Who was to be in his party...? So far it was him and Akane, but the last two slots go to whom...? Perhaps Chiaki, and then bring Leiko for healing? Yeah that makes sense.<br/><br/>He made his announcement on party composition, so now everyone had a few moments to prepare themselves. Matthew seemed to be very very okay with being left out, because of the two hospitals, and for some reason so was Noboru... He didn't seem to have fond memories of the hospital.

The still, sparkling, clear water was disturbed by the single figure as it traveled in a single line through meters of water. As the figure reached the other end of the pool, she tapped her hand atop the edge. Shizuka, the aforementioned swimmer, emerged out of the pool as water dripped down along her delicate, slender figure and her drenched, curly, dark hair was let down as it was released from the clutches of a hair tie. She was adorned with the simple, traditional, competitive swimming one-piece in a hue that matched her tresses but due to her average yet well balanced proportions, it complimented her features.<br/><br/><font color=""violet""><span class=""bb-i"">'It had been awhile since I've last indulged in any athletic activity...'</span></font> The swimmer thought to herself, realizing that her usual balance between educational, athletic, artistic, and interest related activities was becoming off.

Hazel brown eyes sparkled from the moisture of the pool water. With her bangs out of the way and not being dressed in her colorful costumes, one would believe that she was just an average girl.<br/><br/>Having snapped back to reality, Shizuka's bare feet started stepping towards the locker room, to dress up back into her casual wear, now being summer themed. It consisted of a simple, strap sleeved yellow dress, mid length sleeved white cardigan, topping it off with a sunflower ornament headband. Since it was still too early for her part time job at the Star Drop Cafe, she decided to lounge around at the main lobby of the recreational center while properly arranging her curls.<br/><br/>The recreational center she was currently in was built as recent as few years back, due to the start of urbanizing of Warakuma, thanks to its urbanized neighbors. It consisted of some sports facilities such as the indoor courts, for tennis, badminton, basketball and the like, and a pool for swimming. It also consisted of other facilities such as a fitness gym and a yoga studio. There might have been more to it but Shizuka so far had only explored the swimming pool and the tennis court. One might think she was of an athletic build but really, her level was comparable to that of an average person. She only indulged in such activities for her fitness and it reminded her of the days she used to take classes for the two (and ballet) with her mother.<br/><br/>As she was reminiscing, a soft, gentle smile made its way on her lips as she sat down on one of the benches of the lobby.</div>"

It's been a a tiring and quite dull week but if there was something of interest, it would be the usual drama of the Archery Club. It was quite as entertaining as as usual, another bout between Rokurou and Mika. A shame Sato wasn't there and added to it, probably could've added more spice to it all. Though, it was short lived as the sides managed to settle things, though, doubt the problems will be over anytime soon.

Well, couldn't be helped, it was pretty crazy stuff, so of course it would stick. Normally when one hears something of the sort, that'd write it off as nonsense and pay it no mind, but considering what's been going on lately and what she had experienced, it all made sense. Everything falling into place, well...most of it anyway... It didn't take her long for her to agree with Rui's offer. <br/><br/>Even if she didn't experience that whole shadow incident, she'd still be on board and choose to believe it. Mostly because she lives inside her head a lot and it sounded quite interesting. Who knows, maybe some inspiration for her manga? Also, from the sounds of it, there'd be some fighting involved and will be able to help some people out.Win-win for her really. Ok ok, mostly because she wants to beat the crap out of the ones that swarmed her and abducted her. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Fucking cowards....""</span></font> she muttered to herself, gritting her teeth.<br/><br/>Anyways, upon arrival she managed to formally meet the gang, including the ones she encountered during her own problem. Even knowing a number of them, like Kami, whom is also in the kendo club. She has never liked him though, wasn't fond of his attitude. She was tempted to say something but refrained. Apparently, there were 2 'dungeons', each with their own person to save and that they'd be splitting up into 2 teams, sending 1 into each dungeon. <span class=""bb-i"">Hm, I wonder who got taken this time.</span><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Akane Hanazawa // Hospital Street</span><br/><br/>Having arrived at their destination, Akane couldn't help but give it a long enough.

She wasn't too keen on returning to a hospital, especially after her recent trips to one, but it couldn't be helped. Like it or not, this was her first time in this world, well, not as an abductee anyway, so she needed to get a hang of it first. <span class=""bb-i"">Should be fun.

The cult was getting bolder with each move and now they had struck twice on the same day.<br/><br/>Surprisingly, all of them being high school students. Though, a remote part of his mind reasoned that maybe Kotori would return all well like the others but he found it hard to get that emotion known to the one who owned the shop he stood in front of. It had remained closed as expected and Alexei felt as if he should go and offer some consolation to the grieving mother.<br/><br/>Instead, he just left a note at the door. A promise, to try his best in finding the younger Shirohane. The joy of whole week had been washed away in a single stroke. First, Akane and now Kotori. He was starting to worry for the safety of his beloved sister as he walked around the Shopping complex hoping to look for any clues regarding the disappearance of his friend, if he can call her that.<br/><br/>Many thoughts rifled through his mind as he wandered around by his lonesome. Whatever this whole thing was, it seemed either the police was not interested or they weren't up to the job of knowing what was going on.</div>"

They passed the check-in at the front entrance, and began to go down a bunch of corridors. Occasionally there would be hospital equipment and empty beds strewn across the sides, but otherwise it turned out to be a little labyrinth. After awhile the monotony ended, to some of the party's relief, the whole dark and restrained shades of blue and green and white like that of a hospital was beginning to become tiring, and the whole messed up look of everything was beginning to play on one's paranoia. They were now standing in an open clearing, there were chairs laid across the sides with small tables. This looked like some kind of waiting room.<br/><br/>At the end of this 'waiting room', there was a large elevator. It looked just like any other elevator, but run down and... Really big. There seemed to be nowhere else to go in order to advance, so they stepped into it after pressing the one and only button on it.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Hmmm... I've played enough games to know what a big elevator means""</font>, he said to himself, and just on queue, shadows. Their first encounter in the whole dungeon. As the shadows manifested, the elevator began to lurch and then rocket itself at an incredible speed. Looks like these shadows were the key to moving on. They took the appearance to security guards, their faces wrapped in bandages, wielding a baton and a handgun, plus they looked like they could use their handcuffs too.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""Those shadows are...

On the other hand, they seemed slow and easy to fight around... That was probably what the handcuffs were for. It was likely they had some kind of binding skill... Probably be careful for that.</div>"

Nothing could compare to spending a Sunday morning after midterms week outside the house. His mother had been pleased to hear that he had done tremendously well, or at least appeared pleased. Why would she not be pleased to hear that her son was only two points away from a perfect score? Oh yeah, that was how she put it: <span class=""bb-i"">'two points away'</span>. But at least that was more than enough to keep her satisfied for a few weeks; hell, maybe even a few months.<br/><br/>Gen took his thoughts away from school for a moment to open the door of the Recreational Center. Due to the inexorable coming of summer, he was wearing a plain t-shirt that was blue at the collar and shoulders and faded to gray from mid-chest down. Besides that, a pair of jeans and his sole pair of casual sneakers. The only other footwear he had was the school's reglamentary shoes, and he had to leave those at the entrance before getting in. He remembered how he had outgrown <span class=""bb-i"">two</span> pairs in his second year of middle school, when he had quite a growing spur. The funny thing was that Gen's mother threatened him to make him go barefoot if he kept outgrowing shoes. Like, you can't stop growing when you're a teenager, Mom! Or so he would have liked to point to her.<br/><br/>As soon as he entered the lobby, Gen saw someone that caught his eye. Or rather, it was impossible that it did not catch his eye, for it was someone he knew and saw on a regular basis. However, the context was different, and she seemed so strange without her school uniform that Gen needed a moment to remember just who she was. But her name came to him; they were in the same class, after all. Gen walked up to Shizuka, waving at her. Even though they were not exactly quite acquainted to each other, ignoring her would have been plain rude, and being exaggeratedly friendly all of a sudden would have been awkward; but a few words with a school acquaintance had never heard anybody.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">""Hello, Otonashi-san!

Akane's Persona strode in, doing some serious damage to one, but the thing is, there were four others, and she felt a bit of pain as soon as the one beside the one she attacked struck her Persona, and then very quickly another followed up with the handcuffs, managing to bind Setanta.<br/><br/>Rui immediately went in with a Gale Slash, restricting all of their movements while doing damage just for that moment, giving Setanta some room so that the bind would wear off after a couple moments of struggling.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""They can fight in range or melee, and can bind a careless advance.

A youthful, and spirited voice called out in the background, echoing subtly in the open air of the dojo who's only competition was the subtle grunts of Masahide as he swung his Shinai. It was that time of year when Masa's cousin -Yamato Saji- and his family paid a visit to the estate. Today marked the fourth year anniversary of Shinjiro Saji's passing, and without fail relatives would flock to the estate to pay their respects to the man and offer assistance to his widow and son. Always, Masa's mother turned down the offers, each with a polite bow and a friendly smile... But these were things that Masahide took no part in. His father had passed, and now he was responsible for the well-being and reputation of his family in Warakuma, customs and sympathy be damned.<br/><br/>	Still... The boy would be lying if he said it didn't effect him somewhat, possibly the cause of his growing frustration as he attempted to perfect his strikes, though seeming to be of no avail. With one final downward strike, Masa paused, ""I haven't noticed.""<br/><br/>	""Right. You haven't noticed several of your classmates disappearing and suddenly winding up in the hospital? Not even the one out of your class?"" Yamato spoke, his tone clearly agitated though with a bit of jest.<br/><br/>	""You're well informed."" Masa replied, lifting his arm to wipe the accumulating sweat from his brow. He hadn't kept track of how long he'd been practicing, though from the mounting fatigue and soreness of his already worn muscles, he could fathom a guess... Then again, time seemed to drag on while Yamato was on a tangent.<br/><br/>	""You know me, always up with the times. Plus, the updates on the news help... You sure you're ok?""<br/><br/>	""I'm fine. I go to school, I work, I come home. Not much time to get kidnapped.""<br/><br/>	""Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say mister perfect,"" Yamato waved his hand dismissively with a sigh as he stood from his seated position, brushing off his jacket before looking back to his cousin, ""So, Auntie wants me to take you around town. Anything in particularly interesting around here? This place isn't like Okinawa, and I haven't really spent much time outside of the estate.""<br/><br/>	""Not interested, thanks."" Masa said flatly, reversing his grip on his weapon before making his way over to place it in the empty spot on the rack alongside the few others that sat perfectly aligned.<br/><br/>	""Not like you have much of a choice. You really want your mother to yell at both of us? Nothing against your mother... But she can get scary when you piss her off.""<br/><br/>	At this, Masa couldn't help but chuckle. It had been a long time since he'd seen his mother truly angry, most of the time she was casting her usual smile as she tended to her business around the town and home. For what all she's suffered and been through, you'd never meet another with a more cheery disposition... Yet the memory of Yamato being scolded for knocking a set of dishes off the counter was always a rather amusing image. Her eyes narrowed in anger, her voice booming and echoing within the dinning area while Yamato stood there dumb-founded with a broom and dustpan. A priceless image.<br/><br/>	""Uh huh. That's what I thought. Come on, let's go,"" Yamato remarked, having spotted the subtle smile that had grown across Masa's lips. In annoyance, the raven haired boy sighed, wiping his brow once more with his arm before following after his cousin.<br/><br/>	""Let me hit the bath first, I'll meet you in town.""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma- Streets</div><br/><br/>	""So, what's the plan?"" Yamato remark, lifting his arms up and behind his head before crossing them, seeming overly relaxed and at ease in contrast to Masa's rigid demeanor, his hands stuffed into his pockets with his gaze locked forward.<br/><br/>	""This was your idea, idiot,"" Masa replied curtly, his agitation worn like a badge upon his button up shirt.<br/><br/>	""Moody much? Still, it's good to get your ghostly self out into the sun every once in awhile,"" Yamato seemed pleased with his own retort as his gaze faced forward once more, wearing a triumphant smile as they continued to walk down the sidewalk, ""Oh, by the way, don't dare check your phone. Any talk about going to your 'jobs' and I'll smash it on the pavement.""<br/><br/>	""I'll be sure to return the favor to your teeth if that happens."" Yamato let out a audible laugh at Masa's threat, seeming to not be intimidated in the slightest. Onward they ventured, the contrasting duo roaming the city out of boredom.</div>"

A hospital ward, at the very end of the long hallway filled with the creepy quiet fluttering of hospital ward curtains and bloodstains across both the floor and the curtains themselves, was another door at the end, obscured in the dark, only a glowing sight saying ""Emergency Room"" at the end.<br/><br/>Nervously the party navigated this hallway, but like before... No shadows... Was this dungeon more tame...? Or less tame? It was strange, eerie. They could hear voices on this floor, occasionally the voices sounded familiar...<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Sato...?""</font>, he muttered... Was Sato the one they were rescuing here?

Rui wasn't an expert surgeon or anywhere near that, but he was positive this operation was a complete failure. Would not trust that shade standing by the table ever. As he thought this it reared it's head, causing the party to respond by going into stance.<br/><br/>It was creepy, it's face was elongated, enough to not look human, while still looking human enough. It's eyes were blank black abysses, and in its hand was a scalpel. It didn't look like much of a threat... Since it was just a scalpel, but then it dropped that and picked up the gigantic bonesaw... Though that turned out to be a distracted. It shuffled through what looked to be a drawer, and picked up a heart, but it was discoloured in blue, and sure enough it hurled it at the party and on contact like a grenade, turned into a pillar of ice as the party jumped out of the way. As soon as the party did that though, it swung the bonesaw at Rui, who just barely managed to block with Askr. After repelling it, it assumed the same stance again, ruffling through the drawers, and sure enough was another heart, this time yellow.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Looks like its vulnerable when it tries to get another heart...

Lots of users were even sharing their own little thoughts and theories about who the mastermind was, but the lack of evidence, concrete or otherwise made it all pointless.<br/><br/>She gave a sigh, standing up from her chair and looked out the window, letting her mind wander for awhile. The girl didn't want to admit it, but she was scared...How long until she ends up in the same situation as them? Will anyone even risk their lives to save her? Barring her family of course...And even then, will she make it out alive?

Looking inside, she cringed at the levels of blood and gore. The sight made the Yakuza look like a bunch of girl scouts.<br/><br/>It seems like they didn't need to wait long before their host showed itself. To fit the scene before them, it was an equally creepy monster, definitely on a whole other level compared to the other shadows. Waiting in awkward silence as they watched the shadow picking up different weapons before going through a drawer, picking up a heart and tossing it at them. Taken by surprise of the action, they snapped out of it and managed to get out of the way, avoiding becoming a pillar of ice. The shadow didn't wait for them to catch their breathes as it went after Rui with the Bonesaw, of whom barely managed to block it's attack.<br/><br/>After it was repelled it picked out another colored heart.

The heart made contact with the floor as the party dispersed away from it, letting it explode in lightning strikes, quickly spreading and dealing minor damage, even though everyone managed to steer clear of it. The shock was enough to keep most of the party from counter-attacking quickly, but Akane had barely taken damage in this instance, due to the Rakukaja she cast earlier. With this, she had a chance to counter-attack, and did so, striking the shadow before it could fully raise the bonesaw. She wailed on it before stepping back as it attempted to force her to back away with a push of its free hand. As soon as it did, it just stuffed its hand back into the drawer, no longer rustling it, and picked up a green heart...<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So the colour represents the elements almost exactly...

He tried to push himself off the cold ground, but the world was spinning and his head was buzzing. Part of him wanted to stay there, stagnant and unchanging. Nothing bad would happen if he just never woke up.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""Sometimes I feel like I'm just a conduit to her, a window to a life she wanted to live...""</font><br/><br/>	That was his voice. But he hadn't said it, nor thought it.

Was he hallucinating...? The room kept spinning, the walls blending into the floor and the furniture skewing in a surreal fashion in all sorts of directions. As Sato's brain started to straighten itself out, his vision finally returning to normal, the room didn't do either. The furniture remained stretched and oblong, lights pale and flickering and sparking, atmosphere suffocating.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""Oh. You're awake, excellent! Sorry if my talking woke you up, I was practicing my monologue for drama! Y'know, that club you never go to but makes you look cultured so you signed up?""</font><br/><br/>	""What...?"" Sato could hardly register anything that was happening. The teen pushed himself onto his feet once he stopped shaking. Standing on top of the desk before him, was... him? A figure clad in a doctor's attire stood on top of giant office decor, throwing a clipboard with papers on them to the ground. The most confusing part of this all was that this person had the same face and same body as him. The figure jumped down from atop the desk and made his way over to Sato, who took reflexive steps back as the being circled him.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""Have a good nappy-poo, me? Let's say you did; great! So our first patient for the day is... Rokurou Ishihara! That sounds like a bucket of fun, doesn't it?

Sucks to be them because in reality, it's none of those things!""</font><br/><br/>	""That's not true! Rokurou and I have been friends ever since I joined the archery club!"" Without thinking, Sato blurted out a response to the words spoken to him. The other Sato brushed past the real Sato. The air around the doppleganger felt stale and sickening, the short distance between the two making the glowing yellow eyes of the clone all the more visible.<br/><br/>	It rolled its eyes. <font color=""yellow"">""Yeah, that's exactly what everyone else thinks too. It kinda pisses me off. But we know that we just want what they have to offer. Not that you can blame us, since being club president is a pretty good ego binge. That feeling of superiority is just <span class=""bb-i"">sooo</span> my drug. Having an excuse not to go home is pretty good too I guess. It's just so pathetic there, not a suitable place for someone of our level of intellect and skill. It kinda has this air of 'I'm a loser who did nothing with my life and my husband left me because I'm ugly', y'know?""</font><br/><br/>	""T-that's not... How did you...""<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""How did I what? Know exactly what you were thinking? Well, that's because I <span class=""bb-i"">am</span> you. And we're all that matters, right? We're the MVP, the hero, the protagonist, and everyone else is a sidekick waiting to serve their use to us. They can go die after for all I care.""</font><br/><br/>	Sato was speechless, responseless. Everything that was just said, he couldn't deny never having thought. None of these were foreign ideas. Before the doppelganger could open its mouth again, the sound of doors opening and footsteps approaching broke the deafening buzzing ringing through the room. Sato stumbled around to see who was coming in. To his shock, a party lead by that Rui Shinichi kid had barged in. Hamada, Chiaki, and some other girl he couldn't quite recognized composed the rest of the group. Behind him, the other Sato cooed with what was probably delight.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""Front-row seat spectators, I see. All the better if everything can hear why I'm the greatest there is.""</font><br/><br/>	""G-guys, this isn't--"" Sato stammered out, but the fake interrupted him, suddenly a lot more angry.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""This isn't <span class=""bb-i"">what</span>?! Don't kid yourself, this is what we've both been thinking for a long time. It's not my fault they couldn't handle a taste of the real world. I'm one of the best archers in kyuudo, and I would've gotten highest in my year if it wasn't for that Ayano fucker. She can go eat a dick for all I care, probably cheated anyway. I'm on a solid path straight to becoming a doctor, and you all are just stepping stones on my path to greatness! If anyone even calls me the 'f' word, it takes every fiber in my being to not tell them how wrong they are. I've yet to meet anyone that I would even consider to be my equal, or even close to me. They think they deserve everyone playing nice with them, when all they do is sit on their asses and spread their mediocrity around. What this world needs is people like me, hard-working and talented. People like me are the priority. I'm all that matters! Me, ME, <span class=""bb-b"">ME</span>!""</font><br/><br/>	""No, shut up!"" Sato shouted, face contorted into a grimace. ""Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up! YOU'RE NOT ME!""<br/><br/>	At those words, the other Sato's anger faded away into some kind of sick enjoyment. Instead of continuing on with its temper tantrum, it merely started cackling as it began to buckle over onto the ground. A shroud of shadows consumed its figure. For one brief second, it felt as if all the air in the room had been sucked away, before the dark mass exploded with a wave of force that blew Sato back. <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/M2BYkuM.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">A grotesque being filled the room, puppets from its fingers.</a> Sato was incapacitated at the feet of the rescue party, the shadow swaying in anticipation.<br/><br/> <font color=""yellow"">""Take a cue, you maggots! Get out of my way or I'll make sure you never get in it again! I'm not above throwing insects like you under a bus-- literally!

With a heavy sigh, Masa crossed the threshold, offering his cousin a subtle nod of his head in appreciation while Yamato held the door open for him. As they stepped inside, Masahide paused to look about the area.<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">I don't know. I don't normally come here</font>,"" Masa replied, continuing to scan the interior of the building. In truth, he was attempting to find a place where he could slip away and lose his cousins notice... But a short defeated sigh quickly followed the thought as Yamato made his way to Masa's side and draped an arm over his shoulder. True to form, Yamato clung to Masahide every chance he could- possibly due to the massive time between visits, but Yamato would claim it's to keep Masa out of trouble.<br/><br/>	""You are a true homebody, aren't you? When was the last time you went out just to do something fun?"" Yamato quizzed.<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">A Persona Tourney, a while ago</font>."" Masa replied, lifting a hand to remove his cousins arm before straightening the hardly noticeable wrinkles in his attire, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Besides, I don't really have time to kill. Many places in this town wouldn't survive if I wasn't running around saving them.</font>""<br/><br/>	""Have I ever told you how much I admire your modesty?"" With that, Masa couldn't help but chuckle, a subtle smile forming upon his lips as his hands returned to his pockets. In truth, Masahide didn't hate his cousin... Far from it, but you'll never get him to admit it openly. Yamato was the only person he had come to know that truly just wanted to see Masa happy. Part of it could've been due to Masa's father treating Yamato as more of a son than his brother did, but it wasn't Masahide's place to ask or investigate. Still, it was a refreshing reunion- despite his cousins agitating disposition.<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">Yeah? Well if it's true, it's true. Now, why did you drag me out here?</font>"" Masahide asked. At this, Yamato froze. His smile slowly fading to a thoughtful gaze. A few moments later, it was followed by a shrug of the boy's shoulders, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">So, you drug me out of the house, walked all the way here, and have nothing in mind? You're pathetic.</font>""<br/><br/>	""Hey! You're the thinker here! You figure it out."" Yamato stated, slightly defensive as a subtle blush arose on his face. It's obvious that his impulsive nature had gotten the better of him, and left him without a clear plan to entertain his cousin. With a shake of his head and a slight sigh, Masa returned to scanning about the center.</div>"

Thankfully the puppets didn't reach them.

It was a creepy sight to behold, but as this all happened, Sato's shadow yelled in agonizing pain, praising the party. Normally praise was accepted with kindness, but in this case the praise kind of pissed Rui off.<br/><br/>The shadow attempted to get back up, but yet another Gale Slash cleaned up any attempt the shadow made to recover, putting it completely on the defensive, and not even defensive really...

Masa instantly recognized the female, his lips curling into a subtle smile before he did his best to dismiss it, his hands quickly finding their way back into this pockets. Glancing back and forth between the girl and his cousin, Yamato seemed almost in awe before finally setting his eyes upon Shizuka, ""You actually know this guy?"" With a slight burst of laughter, he'd step back just enough to drape his arm over Masa's shoulders (who let out a subtle growl in annoyance), ""You sir, are slacking in the loner department.""<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">Shut up, idiot.</font>"" Masahide snarled slightly under his breath, freeing one hand long enough to throw a subtle elbow into the other male's stomache who grimaced slightly and withdrew his arms to cradle his stomache.

Before he could finish his remark, he would be met with a glare from Masa, ""-man. Is he always this rigid?"" The light haired boy would inquire to Shizuka before hearing another voice call out in the background. Both males glanced over to the source, seeing another girl practically sprinting from the pool as she waved for the other females attention. ""Ah, I get it. She's the popular one that knows everyone, right?""<br/><br/>	Masahide merely shrugged, but his lips curled down slightly into an almost unnoticeable frown. 'Great... More people,' it was then the boy's eyes caught sight of Gen in the direction that Shizuka had approached. His free hand raised to pinch the bridge of his nose as he sighed subtley, 'And even more in the wings. What did you get me into, Yamato?'</div>"

From the back of the room, he watched the presumed rescue party battle that... that... thing. Bleeding and groaning grotesquely from its malformed body and its puppets, the very sight of it made him nauseous. Was that supposed to be 'him'? Soon, after a few decisive strikes from the group, the shadow seemingly melted away into the air as it returned to its more human form. Back to his face. Sato didn't really need to think about what he needed to say. He knew the truth already.<br/><br/>	 The teen walked up to the shadow being, stopping a few steps  before it. It wore the same kind of cocky grin as it had before, but Sato could feel some kind of melancholy to it now. Perhaps it sensed its end drawing near.<br/><br/>	""About what you said earlier, you're not right. Those thoughts, those things you told me... I can't deny that those were my own. I'm not proud of them, and I wish I hadn't ever thought them. But those aren't the only things that define me. I may be selfish, and I may be callous, but I'm more than that. Seeing everyone fight for me today, I realized something. I guess... I had this delusion about myself, thinking that I had to be the best. That I had to push everyone away in case they'd ever drag me down. As cheesy as it sounds, people are strongest when they're with each other..."" Sato clutched the dirty bottoms of his mangled uniform coat, knuckles white. The sting of the blows he'd received earlier paled in comparison to this.<br/><br/>	""I'm not sure I can repair the bridges I've burned over the past few years, but I can try. It's better than waiting for everything to fall into place like I always have. So that's why you're wrong. Or rather, that's why <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> was wrong. We're one in the same after all, right?""<br/><br/>	The shadow smiled again, this time a pleasant one. Tucking the clipboard under his arm, it quietly clapped for Sato as it began to fade away into a swirl of blue light. Sato watched in wonder as the lights spiraled upwards, transforming into a figure as they rose. <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/QaEy0p4.png"" rel=""nofollow"">A graceful guardian appeared before him, the dull glow it radiated almost calming.</a> As it stood before the teen, words echoed in the back of his mind.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""skyblue"">I am thou... and thou art I.<br/>I am Chronos, the ruler of bounded time...</font></span></div><br/>	Once the voice had finished, Sato looked back to the light. It began to fade away, a warmth in Sato's chest replacing it. Just as he was about to turn to the others, Sato noticed something was in his hand. A strikingly familiar card had appeared between his finger, but he quickly forgot about it as he looked back at his heroes.<br/><br/>	Sato took a few steps towards them, but his vision began to blur again, knees weak. The warmth began to consume him, eyelids slipping shut. After everything that had happened, he felt like he could sleep for a week. Catching himself as he began to fall and lowering his body to the floor gently, he forced out one last sentence. ""Thank you, everyone. Thank you, for... everything...""<br/><br/>	With that, he was out like a light.   </div>"

Well, in a sense he was right, since there were two individuals in that group that he did not know. One was Masahide's companion, and the other was the girl that waved and called Shizuka effusively. The latter seemed kind of familiar, though, probably from school? Gen could not put his finger on which class she was in or what her last name even was.

Nah, there couldn't be, fate and some such should remain in the fictional world.<br/><br/>Hearing over the comment of Masa's acquaintance about her being popular, Shizuka shook both of her hands in a negative gesture with a flustered expression upon her face, cheeks tinted in a rosy hue. <font color=""violet"">""N-No, I-I most certainly am not.

Even the fellow classmate knew he was being sarcastic or over exaggerating, but she was unsure if she should break it to him. <font color=""violet"">""Um.... Itoshi-san, I-I think he's alright.

Their break was over just a couple minutes ago, they had set Sato's unconscious body up into a bed in the warehouse, where Tadao kept watch. They planned to take him and whoever was in this second dungeon at the same time. It would be strange to come to the hospital with them one at a time.<br/><br/>As the party moved on through the dungeon, they listened to the directions given by Kazuki, and quickly found themselves at a set of double doors. According to Kazuki, they defeated the mini-boss here, but chose not to advance further. They didn't have the support needed after all. In any case, the party swept through, and fought a small slew of shadows before moving on. Soon... They found themselves pushing through multiple double doors, and the intensity of the heartbeat began to become completely mind-numbing, until they finally opened a set of doors that led into a kind of bloody rope bridge, and a gigantic heart at the other end with another door at the end of the bridge itself. It was a surreal structure to behold, but Megumi confirmed that whoever it was they were rescuing, they were in there, so the party moved forward, and opened the door.<br/><br/>Before them was yet another familiar sight, albeit with a different setting and characters.

Still, the opportunity had not presented itself, and it's likely Yamato would just call him out and force him to stay. 'Damnit' the male swore under his breath, followed by a heavy sigh- his eyes settling on Shizuka as he cast a very subtle smile in her direction, ""The more the merrier..."" His voice intentionally trailed off, hinting at his slowly mounting discomfort that he tried his best to hide, ""As for Yamato, I should've aimed higher. Might've knocked some sense into him.""

Withdrawing a hand from it's place in his pocket, he'd provide a dismissive gesture, ""I'll catch up in a minute."" His words were followed swiftly by and audible yawn, though he did his best to shake his head and dismiss the sudden heaviness to his limbs.

Was it a... sound? A feeling? She didn't know - but it was coming to her through the darkness, stirring her. Awareness began to return - numb at first, but quickly growin in intensity and, finally, into a painful prick as she opened her eyes from it. Lifting her head up from the ground, she quickly reached to the side of her head, the source of the pain - which came from having rested against the frame of her glasses, leaving a still slightly painful indentation. At the same time, a spell of nausea came over her from sitting up so quickly; prompting her to close her eyes at the sudden dizziness in order to get her bearings back. After a moment of slow, deep breaths she slowly opened her eyes again - only for her breath to catch as she finally registered her surroundings.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Heartbreak Hospital: Intensive Care Unit | Unknown Time</span><br/><br/>Kotori's mouth stammered wordlessly - not a single sound came over her lips.

It was completely impossible - and yet despite all this, in all this, a sense of familiarity was about it all; yet twisted in a way which made it all the more jarring. Slowly rising to her feet, she turned about to take in all her surroundings - and stopped mid-turn when she saw another figure standing behind her. But it wasn't just any figure - it was one she immediately recognised, despite it being impossible: It was she herself. Blinking in disbelief, she saw that the figure was doing the same - a mirror? Taking a step closer, the figure did the same. Slowly raising her hand to touch this strange mirror surface, it felt didn't feel cold and hard as she would have expected. Instead, it was actually quite the opposite - soft and warm. Almost as if...<br/><br/><font color=""black"">""...it's a real person?""</font> the figure finished Kotori's thought. Kotori practically jumped back at the sound and sight of her own mirror image moving without her doing anything. Wide-eyed she stared at it - what...? <font color=""black"">""...am I? Isn't it obvious?""</font> the mirror being completed the thought yet again, taking a moment to turn on the spot before fixing Kotori's eyes with her own - their golden sheen being the only difference between them. <font color=""black"">""I. Am. You.""</font> <font color=""green"">""Bu... how...""</font> Rather than any real words, the only thing coming from Kotori's mouth were stuttered fragments as she tried processing what she was seeing - in spite of its complete and utter impossibility.

Because I'm not just you - I'm the <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> you.""</font><br/><br/>Kotori remained frozen in place, unbeknownst to herself clutching her hands close to her chest; a shiver going through her body. The real her...? What... <font color=""black"">""I mean? Exactly what I said: I'm you. The real one, not the little play you like giving.""</font><br/><br/>At that, even the shiver briefly stopped as Kotori's eyes went wide - play? She wasn't doing any plays, she didn't-<font color=""black"">""Oh, don't give me that. We both know it's not true,""</font> the mirror imagine interrupted Kotori's thoughts yet again before stepping closer as she spoke. <font color=""black"">""Kotori Shirohane, the young and independant woman who got top marks without a problem. Talk of the school, but too modest to engage in any talk herself. Lover of plants and all things flowery - you're really starting to buy it yourself, aren't you?""</font> With that, a low chuckle began in the mirror Kotori's throat - one which quickly rose into full-blown laughter. But this was not joyous laugh - it was a chilling sound which only left Kotori ever more speechless.<br/><br/>The mirror image's laugh was abruptly cut short - and instead replaced by a smirk which had absolutely no place on Kotori's face. <font color=""black"">""Oh, and what do you know? We've even got ourselves a little audience!""</font> she exclaimed, prompting Kotori to practically whip around - and go wide-eyed at the sight. Through a door (had that been there before?) a group burst in - all of which seemed to be of her own age. A moment later, she even recognised one of them: Akane Hanezawa, her own classmate. The absurdity of the situation didn't even register any longer - instead, she quickly spoke up; her voice panicked. <font color=""green"">""No!

You're <span class=""bb-i"">afraid</span> to be good with people!""</font> Kotori's stare was completely fixed on her mirror image - no. No, it couldn't be... that... she couldn't mean-! A wicked smirk appeared once more on the other Kotori's face as she stepped closer yet, barely any space between the two now. <font color=""black"">""And you even think you're doing them a favour, don't you? What a little saint, trying to save others from yourself. Say, how does it feel, having to hide <span class=""bb-i"">them</span> for so long?""</font> The mirror image jabbed a finger hard against Kotori's chest - but she didn't even feel it. Her face was as pale as a sheet; all colour drained as she heard her own voice speak those things. No...<br/><br/><font color=""black"">""Oh, why do I even ask? I already know! I'm just hiding behind my little façade - not letting anyone near to keep them from suffering the same fate as my poor self!""</font> <font color=""green"">""...no...""</font> <font color=""black"">""But we both know that's not true.""</font> <font color=""green"">""No...""</font> <font color=""black"">""Because really, that's just an excuse, isn't it?""</font> <font color=""green"">""No, please...""</font> <font color=""black"">""Because in reality, you're just a scared little girl who's too afraid to speak up and instead use any excuse to keep quiet because it's easier that was - <span class=""bb-i"">aren't we</span>?""</font><br/><br/><font color=""green"">""No! No, that's not true! How... how can you even say that! You're lying! You're... <span class=""bb-b"">you're not me</span>!""</font><br/><br/>For a moment, silence fell at Kotori's outcry - a rarity in and of itself. For a moment, it seemed as if she'd stunned her mirror self - but then, the same wicked grin began to form on her features as a disturbing chuckle grew from her throat. At the same moment, it seemed as if the light within the room grew dim as shadows gathered from all around; converging upon the still cuckling form as she grabbed her glasses and threw them aside.. The sound of it became more and more inhuman - and then abruptly stopped. Through the momentary silence, there was at first only a single sound: A low, ponderous thump. Then, another. Then, slowly, the shadows began to dissipate - and began to reveal <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/Zo9rBNN.png"" rel=""nofollow"">the twisted form</a> that lay within.<br/><br/>At first, a vaguely humanoid shape could be made out - but larger than any human should be, even though it was kneeling upon the ground. Long, shadowy-black hair flowed from its head, giving the creature a female appearance. Its golden eyes soon fixed the group that had entered the area - only for them to begin to tear up, leaving golden streams to pour from its eyes as shadows closed in on the figure's mouth, leaving no sound to be heard. The shadow was clad in what appeared to be a gown - a hospital gown, in fact. However, this one was drenched in a dull reddish colour - except for her chest. Here, instead, the colour was bright red - if the the rest of the creature's gown was caked in dried blood, this appeared fresh - if only for a moment before a tear appeared. From this, a strange something pushed through - something which only became evident when, after shivering in the air for a moment, burst open into the shape of a blood-red flower's petals.<br/><br/>And at the very center of the flower, there rested a faintly glowing object. An object which slowly moved in time with the same low thumping that was heard in the silence - a heart. A moment later, three poles grew from the ground behind her - and, hanging upon visciously barbed hooked at their tops, hung bags of yet more bright red blood; long tubes extending from them. For a moment, they seemed completely inert - but then, they suddenly began to twitch as if coming to life. The ends of the tubes began to rise into the air - and then, in a lightning-fast motion, wrapped themselves around Kotori, who had remained completely transfixed at the shadow's feet, and flung her across the floor behind the shadow and out of reach of the intruders. But with that, they weren't done - instead, they quickly released her - and plunged themselves into the shadow's arms.<br/><br/>The Shadow convulsed as if in great pain, its golden eyes still pouring forth silent tears - and then, the heart's faint glow, accompanied by the thumping sound it made with every contraction, suddenly grew in intensity before a whole host of glowing vines grew out of and around it; rapidly slashing through the air before the shadow and themselves giving of a sickly red glow. With another odious <span class=""bb-i"">thump</span> the convulsions subsided - and slowly, the Shadow straigthened its back, leaving its exposed heart in full view of the intruders.<br/><br/>And after another <span class=""bb-i"">thump</span>, its golden eyes fixed themselves on them.</div>"

Apparently, the other group encountered a mini-boss here before heading back. <span class=""bb-i"">I wonder what kind of 'shadow' it was...</span> As they made their way over to the doors, they encountered a small group of shadows, of whom they took out quite easily, before pushing through the doors. Going through the doors, they were hit by an intense sound-wave, no doubt the source of the heartbeats being so close. The place kept getting stranger and stranger, as they went through another set of doors that lead them to a bloody rope bridge before another set of doors brought them infront of gigantic heart which lead them to another set of doors. Too many goddamn doors, seriously... <br/><br/>Entering through the last set of doors, she found a scene almost exactly like the one before, though the characters differ.

While it wasn't as creepy as the other guy's shadow, this one was still quite freaky, especially with the exposed heart. <span class=""bb-i"">Oyyy</span> It got even stranger as 3 poles rose from the ground, assorted with bags of bright red blood hanging off of them with long tubes extending from them. <br/><br/>It looked exactly like an IV/Blood drip and seemed as such until they came to life and began wrapping themselves around Kotori. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""......!""</span></font> Just as Akane was about to act, Kotori was flung far behind the shadow and far from Akane and the others reach. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Kotori!!!!""</span></font> Seeing her flung like that, the incident at the amusement park briefly flashed through Akane's mind.

The shadow seemed to be accumulating.<br/><br/>Rui tried a new approach, and struck the Shadow all over with a Gale Slash, but he didn't manage to do more than clear the vines for a brief moment. They needed a spell to follow up from that... The shadow seemed to be very protective of that heart, as when the vines regenerated, they created a shell or cage around the heart before spreading out again once all the vines had regenerated... This was going to take a bit of coordination. He ordered Akane to buff herself up again, while Rui gave her a Sukukaja, and turned to their back line.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""When I use Gale Slash again, focus all your powerful spells on the heart, at the same time, Akane charge any of the IVs with me""</font>, he ordered.<br/><br/>Once again, he unleashed a Gale Slash, slashing away the vines, and timed just right, was a barrage of spells.

He felt like he should care, or be disappointed, as it was far below his usual, but he just couldn't. It wasn't really a surprise, either -- while he would never admit it to himself, he had been falling apart the past month, his obsession with the kidnappings consuming him. When he wasn't at school, running, or working at the book cafe, he was wandering about, keeping an eye out and questioning others. He was going home late every night, always telling his parents he was spending time with friends -- something that wasn't entirely untrue sometimes. Toma was sure they knew something was off, but they never pressed the issue, probably not wanting any sort of confrontation. As a result, he had gotten very little studying done.<br/><br/>A bump from the crowd of students jostling to see their own scores brought him out of his thoughts. With a heavy, labored blink, he turned away from the board to head to class.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">May 28th | Warakuma High - Track Field, Evening</span><br/><br/>The red-haired boy lay on the cold metal bleachers, staring at the ugly, gray sky as he did his best to slow his panting and heart rate. Whenever he ran himself ragged, he came as close to being happy as he had in the past while. Though it wasn't really happiness, but more like a sense of grim satisfaction, like he had done something that needed to be done. Whatever, it was good enough.<br/><br/>Swinging himself into a sitting position, his muscles cried out in pain -- as they should, considering he hadn't given them a day off in weeks. Toma knew that that wasn't good for him, but he didn't really care. He eyed the door back into the school, and decided it was finally time for him to change and head out into town. He was the only member of the track club left outside, as their meetup had ended half an hour ago. Wiping his brow with his shirt, Toma stood up, allowing himself to wince from the pain as no one was around.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Late Evening</span><br/><br/>Toma began the long trek home, rain already falling. Not that he minded in the slightest. Another night of absolutely no leads; at this point he couldn't even feel disappointed about it. He did, however, feel like something was off, or at least more than usual. He brushed the thought off to the side, and focused on getting home, pushing his wet hair off his forehead.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">May 29th - Warakuma High</span><br/><br/>It was right at the end of the day that Toma overheard some second year students talking amongst themselves and mentioning that Kotori hadn't been at school today. The red-haired boy's stomach instantly dropped as he immediately feared the worst, considering she never seemed to miss school. He approached the second-years to confirm what they had said, which they did, while not being subtle about giving him strange looks. <br/><br/>After giving a quick nod of thanks, Toma turned on his heels and broke into a sprint, weaving through the crowd of students, and definitely bumping into and pissing off more than a few.<br/><br/>His exhausted mind was a jumbled mess of thoughts as he ran, heart-pounding not from exertion but from panic. Panic. He actually felt panicked and scared. It had been a long time since he had felt any emotion as intense as this fear.<br/><br/>Fears that were soon confirmed. In the distance, Toma could see the unassuming flower store and an out-of-place police car parked in front of it.<br/><br/>The boy flew up to the door and tried opening it, only to be stopped in his tracks upon realizing that it was locked. Forced to pause, he slowly came off his fear-driven auto-pilot, eyeing the inside of the store and seeing no movement. Swallowing hard and taking a breath to compose himself, he finally let go of the door handle and moved to the side, pressing his back against the building and sliding down onto his rear.<br/><br/>Several anxious minutes passed before the door was pushed open, snapping Toma out of his daze and prompting him to climb to his feet, coming face to face with two police officers. They both eyed him up and down.<br/><br/>""Sorry, boy, this store's closed today,"" said one of the cops, noticeably older than his partner.<br/><br/>Toma's brow furrowed as he swallowed again. <font color=""#f26522"">""She's missing, right? The girl who lives here.""</font><br/><br/>The two policemen threw each other a quick glance, before the older one replied. ""Unfortunately. Are you a friend of hers?""<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Something like that, I guess.""</font><br/><br/>""Hm. Well, we'll be working hard to find her, so rest easy, son.""<br/><br/>Toma felt his eye twitch as he fought to keep himself from snapping. <font color=""#f26522"">""Work hard? That's not enough. You useless lot haven't found a single one of the kidnapped -- they all just turn up with you guys having no fucking clue or explanation about what happened!""</font> His frustration stained every word he spoke as he stared down the older man.<br/><br/>The cop blinked in mild surprise, but didn't lose any of his composure. ""We don't know for sure the exact reason for her disappearance yet, so there's no need--""<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Bullshit!""</font> Toma yelled, cutting him off and stepping forward, causing the younger cop to do the same and reach down to his waist. <font color=""#f26522"">""It's obvious that she was kidnapped! The fact that you can't even confirm that proves how fucking useless you all are!""</font> <br/><br/>The younger cop gripped Toma's shoulder and pushed him back firmly. ""You need to calm down right now, man,"" he said, looking the boy in the eyes without falter.<br/><br/>The action helped bring Toma back to his senses. Mildy shocked from the realization of how he had just confronted and spoken to these cops, he looked away gruffly and shook the man's hand off his shoulder before taking a step back.<br/><br/>The older cop studied the boy's exhausted face, feeling a measure of pity for him. He sighed softly before speaking. ""I'm sorry. You're right, we don't know enough about the recent disappearances. But I promise you, we <span class=""bb-i"">are</span> doing our best. It might not be enough right now, but it's all we can do, and it's what we'll continue doing.""<br/><br/>Toma looked back over at him out of the corner of his eyes, expression softening slightly as the man's sincerity got through to him. He gave a slight nod as he looked away again, shoving his hands in his track jacket pockets.<br/><br/>The man gave him a reassuring tap on the shoulder. ""Take it easy tonight, son,"" he said, before turning to his cruiser, the younger cop following suit.<br/><br/>Toma watched the pair drive off, before turning back to the flower store and looking solemnly through the window. Kotori's mother must have been worried sick. But even that wouldn't compare to how she'd be affected if she lost her daughter. Toma had seen the depressing, ugly transformation occur to his own parents after his brother's death -- both being changed in different ways, but both also for the worse. He couldn't let that happen. Despite how helpless and lost and useless he felt, he had to do absolutely everything in his power to not let that happen.<br/><br/>And not just for Kotori's and her mother's sakes. For his own, too. While he refused to acknowledge it, failing again would break him.<br/><br/>'Take it easy tonight.' Toma snorted softly to himself as he pulled up his phone and texted his parents, telling them he'd be sleeping over at a friend's house.</div>"

Each time the IV bags were destroyed, they would burst in blood, and spew like a hose all around the shadow, it extended the electricity range, but that was it. No more.<br/><br/>The party began to charge in for the final push and end this, but as soon as they did, the blood all on the floor began to rise enter the heart, it began to swell in size and the shadow began to laugh maniacally.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""W-what?!

He had to try something.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Kotori... There's nothing wrong with hiding away, when you're afraid... That's what we do""</font>, he panted.

They were already mentally drained from casting, they didn't need to be physically drained too, but the reality was they needed to start using their weapons too, and the party was pushed back again. It was a grueling and long five minutes, before the shadow began to simple fade away... The battle didn't end in a bang, it just withered, and like the battle, so did the petals around the shadow's heart wither, and soon it began to fade away, turning back into the familiar humanoid form.</div>"

I'm not afraid of what other people think; I've got a reason to keep my distance...'</span></font> Unbeknownst to her, Kotori's further denial only served to sustain her twisted other self as it took the fights to the four intruders. <font color=""green""><span class=""bb-i"">'I... I can't help it, really. It's just that... what if they get hurt? I don't want that - no, never...'</span></font> Through misty eyes, Kotori slowly lifted her head up - just in time to see her other self blast its attackers with bolts of lightning. For a moment, hesitation entered her thoughts. <font color=""green""><span class=""bb-i"">'No, please... stop! You're just getting hurt over me! Stop... please...'</span></font> she pleaded silently - but the four did not even falter; instead even redoubling their efforts. <font color=""green""><span class=""bb-i"">'Why... why won't you stop? You don't have to do this, I... I...'</span></font> Blinking slowly, it was only now that Kotori realised that she could feel something on her cheeks - tears that had unknowingly started to form.<br/><br/>Looking on, there was nothing she could do to stop the four of them from throwing themselves at the cruel shadow that was supposed to be herself - even if her voice would have obeyed her, she wouldn't have any words to make them stop; nothing she could say would have made them abandon this fight. But why would they do that for someone they barely knew? A sense of helplessness overcame Kotori at that realisation - and at the same moment, her shadow hesitated for just a brief instant; barely noticeable. Here she was, wanting to stop four people from throwing themselves into a life-or-death battle and she couldn't even get a whisper out. She had a reason, didn't she? She didn't want to see others get hurt over herself - and yet here they were, doing just that without even being asked to do so. People she wanted to 'protect' - what good would that be, what could she really do? People were going to get harmed, one way or another - and they were going to live their lives how they saw fit, no matter what she said or did.<br/><br/>Closing her eyes as her thoughts slowed down, the shadow began to become more frantic; the prolonged fight taking quite a toll on the party. <font color=""green""><span class=""bb-i"">'...what good is it if I keep people away and it just hurts them anyway - and... me? I... I don't want that. No, I never wanted that, but... but what should I do? I... I don't know anymore. I just... I...'</span></font> <font color=""slategray"">""Kotori... There's nothing wrong with hiding away, when you're afraid... That's what we do.""</font><br/><br/>Her eyes blinked open and turned toward the speaker - who kept on talking, asking her if it wasn't sad. He didn't even know her - and yet, he was risking his and his friends lives for her sake; even trying to help her through her inner turmoil. Kotori opened her mouth, as if to respond - but to her bitter realisation, she didn't have any words. It was at that moment - even as the boy told her to watch - that her shadow's words finally reached her core. She was right - of course she was. She had been right all along - and she'd known as much, but she just didn't want it to be true. Of course she had a reason to keep people away - but how long had it been since that had been the truth and not just a lipservice of an excuse toward herself?<br/><br/>She wasn't doing some noble deed - she was really just a shy girl who covered up her insecurities by clinging to something as an excuse. But what good was an excuse if it failed to even prevent exactly what it was supposed to guard against? And with that admittance, an unfelt wind swept across the battlefield, sweeping up the shadow as it wilted; leaving instead the once-more human form of Kotori in its wake. Looking at her, Kotori herself slowly pushed herself up from the ground; hands clutched before her chest as she closed the distance between them. The golden eyes fixed themselves on Kotori's own behind her glasses. There was still a wetness about her cheeks, but no longer did any tears gather in her eyes as she knelt down in front of her other self. And then, with a small smile, she extended her tightly-grasped hands out toward her shadow; revealing within her palms the previously discarded glasses of her golden-eyed self.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I'm sorry,""</font> Kotori said, her voice still quiet. <font color=""green"">""You're right. You really are. I'm not helping anyone by hiding away - in fact, I'm even hurting them.""</font> Her shadow-self took the glasses wordlessly, slowly putting them on as she watched Kotori's smile dim for a moment. <font color=""green"">""And you're right about using an excuse - it had been the truth. But that was three years ago. It was just too much - he was gone from one moment to another, and then to hear that my heart was the same; that it might stop at any moment - I was scared of dying, I was hurt. I didn't want to hurt anyone else - so I kept my distance. But at some point... I stopped being afraid of dying and instead became afraid of living.""</font><br/><br/>Kotori's smile had vanished; instead giving way to sorrow as she spoke to herself of her own memories. <font color=""green"">""But...""</font> she then said before taking a deep breath. <font color=""green"">""I also realised that no matter what, I can't just avoid people entirely - no matter what I do, I will still affect others. And what if...""</font> Kotori paused for a moment - as a small smile began to form again on her lips, <font color=""green"">""what if I can affect them positively, in the here and now, instead of only negatively?""</font> With that, she slowly put her arms out to her sides - a rather awkward attempt at a hug, if there had ever been one. <font color=""green"">""So let's not be afraid of our scars. If we're broken hearts, who's to say we can't still be happy?""</font><br/><br/>At her words, Kotori's mirror image blinked slowly - before shaking her head. But not condescendingly or even denying her words - rather, in incredulity at her real self's words in conjunction with her silly gesture. A small chuckle began in her throat - but this time it was neither cruel nor disturbing. No, it was simply the laughter of an amused girl who'd just witnessed herself making an incredibly embarassing speech - before throwing her arms around her real self. And with that, a faint glow began to emanate from the smiling shadow as she faded once again - but this time into light rather than shadows. The light grew in intensity - yet somehow never becoming painful to the eye - as it floated upwards. At its very peak of brightness, the mass of light then gave off a brilliant flash - and began to morph into a new shape even as an object began to slowly descend from its core.<br/><br/>Kotori, who had watched the whole thing still kneeling on the ground, had fixed her eyes on the entire process - yet despite being just as inexplicable as anything that had happened since she had awoken in this strange place, she felt none of the fear. Instead, it felt... familiar; like the warmth of a home on a cold winter day. Above her, the flash faded - and revealed in its stead <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/dcWGhC0.png"" rel=""nofollow"">a new figure</a>; clad in robes of white and red. Within its hands it grasped the stem of a blooming rose - yet its thorns made no attempt to sting her. The figure was evidently both human and female, even in spite of the flowery outgrowth that were her hair. Kotori, meanwhile, had extended her hands upwards toward the object that had come floating down from above: A card which came to rest in her hands. Holding it close to her chest, Kotori looked up again at her persona - a word which came to her inexplicably yet completely naturally - she smiled as her voice filled her mind.<br/><br/><font color=""gold"">""I am thou. Thou art I.</font><br/><br/>Kikuri-Hime was her name - something that Kotori knew just as naturally as the fact that she was smiling back at her before slowly fading away. Yet she didn't feel saddened by the departure - because she wasn't really gone when she was her inner self after all. Slowly getting back up on her feet, Kotori turned to face her saviours - and immediately bowed deeply. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, imsor-""</font> She jumbled her words as the full embarassement of having the four of them hear all her previous words to her herself; her face taking on a quickly deepening red colour - but then she stopped, took a deep breath and stood up straight again. Kotori's cheeks made evident that she was still quite embarassed as she spoke again: <font color=""green"">""I am sorry to have caused you so much trouble and am really grateful for what you have done for me.""</font> Though it took her full concentration to do so, Kotori spoke without a hint of hesitation; no small stutter and in a clear and audible tone instead of her usual quiet voice.<br/><br/>A small smile accompanied her words - but before she could say anything more she blinked once, twice as her mind became clouded. All the fatigue came pouring over her as she began to sway on her legs - and then finally collapse into unconsciousness once again; without even being able to mumble another 'Sorry' for troubling them even further.</div>"

Before she could introduce herself though, it seemed that the one who appeared to be the eldest was rather fatigued and he just went ahead and dozed off on a bench.

The two didn't recognize each other personally, but they were aware they were in a very unique situation. They looked around them... A room, dining room draped in blue, and a long dining table. In some of the chairs they could barely make out some familiar silhouettes... Akane, Rui, Chiaki... And a bunch more. They looked down to see something inscribed onto the table... Respectively, ""Fortune"" for Sato, and ""Priestess"" for Kotori. And as they looked down, they also noticed their clothes... Sato wore a blue blazer, with a black dress shirt with white vertical stripes, as well as a lapel pin with the number of his arcana on it. His attire at the moment was well-kept, a white tie pulling it all together.<br/><br/>Kotori on the other hand wore a black strapless dress, with a shortcoat, covering her neck and with long sleeves, covering her arms too. She had gloves, and the dress was frilled towards the bottom stylistically, as well as upon her hair was a flower brooch, whilst blue, was definitely a chrysanthemum. They would next realize that they did not open their eyes here of their own volition. It was a voice that had called them here, and they looked to the source of that voice.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a place between mind, and matter, dreams, and reality. I see we have two more guests joining us this time""</font>, he began. The man had a characteristically long nose, was bald, pale, with wide round eyes, and a large creepy smile.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I am Igor, and this is my assistant, Henrietta""</font>, he continue, motioning to the blonde girl next to him. She was the image of class or so it seemed. Straight hair, excellent posture, and with a look of slight disdain.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""To have two in here at once... It has been a long time since I've had the pleasure, of having more than a single guest in here at any single time. Let's see... You... Have drawn the Fortune.

It appears you nearly simply gave into a predetermined fate, I'm sure you will agree""</font>, he spoke. Sato knew exactly what he meant... Then soon Igor turned to Kotori.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""And you, have drawn the Priestess arcana... A very pleasant arcana if I do say so myself, it represents the feminine, and means untapped wisdom or power... Which for you would have remained untapped if not for some persistent people yes?""</font>, the events he was referring to, Kotori seemed to also know.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But... Now is not yet time to go any further... Henrietta""</font>, he clicked his fingers, and while she walked around the table, handing out a key to Kotori and Sato, he continued to talk.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is the key to this room, in due time you will find yourself returning here of your own will, but until then... Farewell""</font>, and with that, Sato and Kotori's consciousness faded.</div>"

He groaned a little as he felt his heavy backpack drag him down. Perhaps he should only bring one book of manga every day instead of ten. He probably should've brought the pills with him. Oh god why didn't he bring the pills with him?<br/><br/>Ryan arrived at school and headed straight to class. He pulled out a manga and laughed at its absurdity. This helped distract him from his headache, this was pretty crazy. People summoning their personality to battle demons. And to do so they had to accept their problems. How insane!

His own clothes had been changed into some kind of formal wear. Despite the weird setting he suddenly found himself in, Sato did not feel alarmed. Calmly, he looked around him, spotting silhouettes seated around the table, as well as one more visible girl and the speaker, with his companion at his side. Though he recognized who the shadows and the girl were, he couldn't place the names. He was not frustrated with this, and instead focused his attention back to the speaker: a man with an extremely long nose, the rest of his unsettling face fitting.<br/><br/> <font color=""royalblue"">""This is a place between mind, and matter, dreams, and reality. I see we have two more guests joining us this time. I am Igor, and this is my assistant, Henrietta.""</font> He motioned towards his blonde companion. She seemed very posh, if not a bit arrogant. <font color=""royalblue"">""To have two in here at once... it has been a long time since I've had the pleasure, of having more than a single guest in here at any single time. Let's see... You.. have drawn the Fortune. To choose one's destiny is one of the many facets of life, but whether or not you can execute that choice is an entirely other matter. It appears you nearly simple gave into a predetermined fated, I'm sure you will agree.""</font><br/><br/>	Sato nodded at this, noting the inscription on the table before him of 'Fortune'. The strange man continued on to address the girl. <font color=""royalblue"">""And you, have drawn the Priestess arcana... A very pleasant arcana if I do say so myself, it represents the feminine, and means untapped wisdom or power... Which for you would have remained untapped if not for some persistent people yes?

The elegant woman walked around the table, passing he and the girl velvet keys. <font color=""royalblue"">""This is the key to this room, in due time you will find yourself returning here of your own will, but until then... Farewell.""</font><br/><br/>	As if the man had given him permission to, Sato's consciousness began to slip again. His eyes began to close, and while he didn't try to, he wouldn't have been able to keep them open no matter how hard he tried. For the third time, a sweet emptiness embraced him. Though... it felt less like an emptiness now, and instead a warm bed in his heart.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-f-dFZRmiFs"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma Hospital</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">JUNE 1ST 2015, MONDAY<br/>Mid-day</span><br/>	That dream... or was it a dream? It felt real, but it was so... not real. Everything that had happened over the past few days felt unreal. That man had said Sato had drawn the 'Fortune'. Wasn't that an arcana in tarot reading? What was that being that came from that doppelganger? Where was he taken to after being kidnapped? Nobody would believe him if he tried to say what happened, and he could hardly believe it himself.<br/><br/>	The clattering of a door opening brought Sato's attention back to present moment. He'd been in and out for the last day he'd been in the hospital, none of what had happened yet registering in his mind. It'd been a blur of resultless diagnosis, motherly visits, and sleeping. The only thing he could recall as he opened his eyes was that strange dream. To his surprise, a familiar face other than his mother had entered.<br/><br/>	Rokurou awkwardly shut the door behind him and stood in front of a chair in that 'I don't actually want to be here and you need to know that' kind of way. A silence followed the boy, pressing down on Sato's chest like a weight. It was a feeling he'd always felt prior to being administered to the hospital, or rather, the events that had transpired that lead up to the hospitalization. Neither started saying anything, so Rokurou gave a sigh and went to leave the room.<br/><br/>	""Wait!"" Sato blurted out, extending a hand out.<br/><br/>	He reclosed the door. ""Look,"" Rokurou started, ""I'm only here because your mom kept bugging me to come. I got sick of those depressing voice mails so I came. Tell her that I did.""<br/><br/>	""Rokurou, don't leave yet."" Sato said, pushing himself up from the hospital bed, a few steps towards Rokurou taken. ""I need to talk to you.""<br/><br/>	Letting out another sigh, Rokurou slumped against the wall. ""Fine.""<br/><br/>	""Look... I- I know I've been a total ass recently. Or forever or whatever. But I just need to tell you, that I'm so, <span class=""bb-i"">so</span>, sorry for everything I've done to you and everyone. I can't... I mean, I really want to be friends with you guys and I fucked that up so hard, that I--""<br/><br/>	""Shut up."" And Sato looked like a kicked puppy. Especially since Rokurou wouldn't meet his eyes. ""I get it, you're sorry. Don't be such a baby about it. I... I guess I know where you're coming from though. I can't say I didn't do that kind of stuff to people I care about...""<br/><br/>	""Yeah, but--""<br/><br/>	""Let me finish! My point is, don't let that kinda stuff drag you down. It's in the past, ok? Now stop looking like I beat you up or something.""<br/><br/>	""Does that mean...?""<br/><br/>	Rokurou rolled his eyes, huffing as loud as he could. ""Fine, fuck! I forgive you, okay? I was a dick too.""<br/><br/>	""Roku, I'm really glad you said that."" Maybe that was too much... Whatever. Sato earned being a cheeseball for once, after whatever the hell happened happened.<br/><br/>	""First, don't call me that. Ever. Second, don't make this weird. If you're going to be so sappy over it, you're gonna have to help me sort out all the shit in my room before we're even. I'll text ya when I'm free."" And with that, he was gone. The same clattering noise as the taller boy left the room, leaving Sato to his own devices again. With little else to do before being able to check out, Sato sat on the edge of his bed. His regular clothes, tattered and dirty, rested on a chair next to the wall. A good shower was all he wanted.</div>"

He went through what he'd said to police when they came to question him. Seeing as a proper retelling of what happened sounded like something straight out of some niche RPG, Sato only talked about the actual kidnapping, covering up the events after by saying it was all just a blur until he was found on the streets.

Instead, she found herself slowly looking about her surroundings - it was predominantly blue, in a velvet shade which seemed oddly familiar for some reason. Bringing her gaze to her front, she saw a long dining table; big enough to host about a two dozen or so guests at the same time. The seats - one of which she occupied, she realised - there were other figures, but most too wispy to truly make out.<br/><br/>It was strange. She should be afraid, or at least wondering at the oddness of this place and how she got here - but she found herself quite calm instead, as if she'd somehow already been here. Looking closer at the table, she noticed that before her own seat was an inscription which read as 'Priestess' - and that she wasn't the only occupant who wasn't a mere silhouette. Of the three, one drew her immediate attention. An impossibly long nose, huge eyes and a very wide grin made up his face - yet despite his outlandish appearance, he seemed neither comedic nor truly frightening as he fixed the two guests before him with his eyes.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a place between mind, and matter, dreams, and reality. I see we have two more guests joining us this time. I am Igor, and this is my assistant, Henrietta""</font>, he said, the blonde-haired girl giving only the slightest of acknowledgements at her introduction. <font color=""royalblue"">""To have two in here at once... It has been a long time since I've had the pleasure, of having more than a single guest in here at any single time. Let's see... You... Have drawn the Fortune. To choose one's destiny is one of the many facets of life, but whether or not you can execute that choice is an entirely other matter. It appears you nearly simply gave into a predetermined fate, I'm sure you will agree""</font>, he spoke. He seemed to be addressing the other guest - before turning to Kotori.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""And you, have drawn the Priestess arcana... A very pleasant arcana if I do say so myself, it represents the feminine, and means untapped wisdom or power... Which for you would have remained untapped if not for some persistent people yes?""</font> Kotori didn't know how he'd know of such things - he just did and that was all there was to it. She didn't even need to nod in agreement - she knew it to be true too. <font color=""royalblue"">""But... Now is not yet time to go any further... Henrietta.""</font> At the clicking of his fingers, the girl in question stood up, walking around the long table to hand both of their guests a key. Kotori looked at hers - it was in the same shade of velvet as the room itself.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is the key to this room, in due time you will find yourself returning here of your own will, but until then... Farewell""</font> And with those words, velvet to blackness once again; Kotori's departure being just as seamless as her initial arrival.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Hospital | Monday, June 1 2015</span><br/><br/>Kotori's eyes slowly opened - only to immediately close again at the brightness before them. A little more gingerly she tried again, slowly trying to adjust her eyes. The first thing she noticed was that her surroundings weren't velvet - instead, they were mostly white. Besides that, she had difficulty actually making them out - everything seemed out of focus. Blinking once, twice, it took her a moment to realise that she didn't have her glasses on as she reached up to rub her eyes. Looking down and around, she also realised that she was in a bed - and even without her glasses, an involuntary frown came over her face as she recognised it; even seeing clearly: She was at the Warakuma Hospital. She'd been here a few times in the past; sometimes even in these very same beds - so often in fact that she not only was able to recognise them but also had grown to dislike them.<br/><br/>Luckily though, it also meant she knew that there was a small cabinet at the bedside atop which she found her glasses - and as the world returned to its normal unblurred self, she gave a small sigh of relief. A small smile followed when she saw that that hadn't been the only thing there: A small vase stood there, a colourful arrangement of flowers standing within and bringing at least some life to this otherwise so pristine and stale feeling room. Looking around, Kotori reconfirmed that she really was in a hospital room - before her gaze fell on the chair beside her bed. Or rather, the occupant therein. Wide-eyed and with the strangest of expressions on her face sat her mother, staring her straight in the eye. Kotori was taken aback at the sight - beneath her eyes were the beginnings of dark rings, the eyes themselves reddened and her hair looked somewhat disheveled. She looked like she hadn't slept a wink for days.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""...Mum?""</font> Kotori gingerly asked when she didn't say a word - only to find herself in a sobbing hug so fast her mother might as well have spontaneously developed teleportation skills. <font color=""white"">""Oh, Kotori,""</font> she heaved between breaths as she clutched her daughter closely. <font color=""white"">""You had me so worried.""</font> Relenting ever so slightly in her grip, Tsubame drew away just enough to sit down on the edge of the hospital bed - but now with a tearful smile on her face. Confusion started to make way for guilt in Kotori's mind as she realised what her mother meant - and just why she looked that way.<br/><br/>For her, it had been a strange experience - but for her mother, her only daughter suddenly vanished from the face of the earth without a trace. Of course she was going to be worried - even more if said daughter happened to be Kotori. A faint clicking noise drew the two Shirohanes' attention to the door where a nurse stepped through - only to stop for a moment when she saw that Kotori was sat up and awake. ""Ah, excellent, you're awake, Shirohane-san. I'll let the doctor know,"" the nurse said with a genuine smile before leaving the room again. Turning to her mother, Kotori asked to confirm her suspicion: <font color=""green"">""What time is it?""</font> The answer didn't really surprise her - but her eyes widened for a moment when the next question was answered with <font color=""white"">""Monday.""</font><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>""So, just to be sure. In recent memory, have you felt light-headed? Had difficulty breathing? Chest pains? Headaches?"" With each question being answered with a <font color=""green"">""No""</font> and a shake of Kotori's head, the doctor gave a satisfied nod. ""Okay, that's good."" Flipping through the several sheets of paper on his clipboard, occasionally stopping on one to examine it, he finally nodded once more before speaking up again. ""Well, the test results show you're doing as well as on your checkup last Saturday, so there's no cause for concern. You can be discharged tomorrow,"" the doctor said before leaving again. Following that, the two talked for a while more - most of it being Tsubame catching Kotori up on what had happened these past few days before she too would leave. She was more than a little reluctant to do so - but Kotori insisted that she looked like she needed rest more than her daughter. Tsubame promised to come by early the next day again before heading back home - the same place she'd spent the last few days in constant fear ever since Kotori had gone missing. But thankfully, that was now over she thought as she passed the two policemen sitting outside the room and a boy; paying neither of them much heed at this point.<br/><br/>The policemen were the next to enter the room - the same two that had shown up at her home Friday to inquire about her disappearance - and asked her a few questions; having rather tactfully given the two some time first. Unfortunately, she couldn't really answer their questions to any kind of satisfaction - on one hand, she didn't know anything about the kidnappers. On the other hand, she kind of doubted that telling the truth would work out very well so she instead opted to simply say she didn't have any clear memory of things after the kidnapping until she woke up again in the hospital. The policemen were clearly not very happy with so few leads, but soon after thanked her for her time and wished her a swift recovery before they too left the room; the shortness of her answers leaving just a few minutes before visiting hours would end.<br/><br/>Once they did, she found herself alone in the room as her thoughts turned to the events that had unfolded. It seemed even crazier now that she thought back on it - but at the same time, she knew it wasn't a dream. She gave a soft sigh as she turned her eyes downward to her hands resting on her lap. It was silly, really - and at the same time, that silliness just made her feel all the more guilty. Three years ago, her father had died in a car accident - it was so sudden and unexpected, it'd come as a complete shock to her. One day he was there - and the next, gone. Forever. She still remembered that she'd crying for days afterwards whenever she realised just how much she'd taken him - and everyone around her, for that matter - for granted. It was a terrifying realisation to have to come across, knowing how easily someone you loved could vanish from your life.<br/><br/>But that hadn't even been all - for a few days later, the cause of the accident had been found out. According to the police, he must have briefly lost control of the car. The reason he'd lost it had been unclear - until it was found that he'd actually suffered a heart attack moments prior. As it turned out, he'd actually had a weak heart all his life - according to the doctors, the heart's blood vessels were unusually small and in turn caused the heart itself to be perpetually overcompensate with stronger, more rapid beats just to keep itself going. This, in turn, tired the heart disproportionately - and made it very susceptible.<br/><br/>And then they found that the reason for this was genetic - which meant that Kotori suffered from the very same weak heart which might just stop beating at any moment. Fortunately though, with the problem known and identified at a relatively early age, countermeasures could be put in place - in fact, she'd had three operations to try and correct the problem over the past three years already, though it still wasn't entirely fixed. Lifting a hand to the neck of her hospital gown, she gave it a light tug - and, as ever, saw the scars of the operations on her chest.<br/><br/>But now, in light of the past events, she actually gave a small smile - before, she'd only seen the scars themselves, perpetual reminders of her own death. But in reality, that wasn't true - that was just what she'd come to believe after descending a constant spiral of negativity; having focused entirely on the wrong things. No, instead they were just small scars - all of which were already in the process of fading from prominence - that instead showed that she was well on the way to full health. Somehow, she'd become so fixated on this that her fear of death had instead turned into a fear of living. Somewhere down the line, she'd used this as an excuse for herself to not even try to really get to know people; to keep to herself - when in reality, it was just her own shyness holding her back. That was something she was going to try and change from here on out.<br/><br/>A small smile came to her face after all that. Thinking about it, she should probably thank those four that had risked their lives back then for helping her with her rather literal inner demons when she go the chance. It had been a rather odd group, too - Akane had been there, and she thought she remembered seeing Hamada too. Even the rather famous idol girl, Chiaki, had been part of it, as had the boy whom she'd remembered hearing the some girls occasionally talk about and point out, Rui. Looking back up, however, she could picture him perfectly - until she realised that that was because he was actually standing in the open door; a knock on which she must have missed. Blinking in surprise, she quite quickly returned her hand back to her lap as she realised how odd she must have looked to an onlooker.<br/><br/>Giving a fairly unconvincing half-cough, half-throat clearing sound, Kotori gave a small bow in greeting as well as she could whilst still sitting in bed. <font color=""green"">""Good evening, Shinichi-san,""</font> she greeted, her voice still rather quiet. <font color=""green"">""And thank you for...""</font> Kotori tried to find a fitting word, before just settling for <font color=""green"">""'this'""</font> and a vague hand gesture - after all, she figured that was probably the reason he'd show up so soon instead of just waiting until after she was discharged.</div>"

It looks like the situation with the cult was getting serious enough to more directly involve detectives. He overheard them talking about cases from last year, and that there was something strange about this year, as people didn't turn up dead this year... In any case, Rui after them strode in to see Kotori, who in kind, thanked him for... Whatever 'this' was supposed to mean. She was a little flustered, considering the scene he walked into, but he slid that aside,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""No problem, if you ever need help with 'this' or 'that', you can talk to me""</font>, he said, sneaking in his Persona summoning stance for 'that'.

He should probably start with that.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I'm sure I don't need to tell you how eventful things have been lately...

He still wasn't planning on attending any classes -- instead, he wanted to just question everyone he saw about Kotori, hoping one of them could tell him where she was last or some other peice of information that would be even remotely useful. Though he knew the odds of that were low.<br/><br/>Those plans were put to a quick stop upon the reply of the first person he pulled over. Toma didn't even know what he had asked exactly, but the younger students wide eyes and shrinking frame were clues that he hadn't exactly been polite about it -- also, he looked like hell, which probably wasn't helping.<br/><br/>""Sh-shirohane-san was found earlier today, I think she's at the hospital now!"" he said quickly, wanting to be anywhere else.<br/><br/>Toma's scrunched face immediately relaxed as the other student's words registered -- words that he could hardly believe.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Eh?""</font> was all that came out of his agape mouth, a moment before he turned to leave for his new destination.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>Toma approached the hospital's front desk, the receptionist giving him a bit of a strange look but quickly replacing it with a fake smile.<br/><br/>""Hello there, how may I help you?"" she asked.<br/><br/><font color=""#f26522"">""Oh.

Turning back to the woman, he gave a small nod. <font color=""#f26522"">""Thank you.""</font><br/><br/>The boy made his way to the corner of the waiting area, and sat down heavily in a chair, his exhaustion crashing down on him as he felt the relief of not being on his feet for the first time in almost three days.<br/><br/>He went to blink...<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>...and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself on his side and taking up two seats, the receptionist gently shaking him awake.<br/><br/>Toma held his pounding head as he sat up, glancing at a clock on the wall and seeing that he had slept for about two-and-a-half hours, though he didn't really feel much better.<br/><br/>""You're free to visit Shirohane-san now, if you'd like,"" the woman said with a sincere smile.<br/><br/>The red-haired boy blinked, his eyes feeling a little lighter than they had before. Maybe the nap had done him a little bit of good. Nodding his thanks to the woman, he stood up slowly, stretching his limbs out at the same time before beginning to make his way to Kotori's room.<br/><br/>The walk was a struggle, Toma having a hard time not dragging his feet. The little sleep had helped, but considering how long he had stayed awake and on his feet, it obviously wasn't enough to get him back up to speed. That could come later.<br/><br/>Toma paused in front of the door, confirming he had the right room, and moved to raise his arm and knock on it, but stopped himself short when he saw the state his hand was in.<br/><br/>Dirt all over, cracked and bruised knuckles, and four small cuts in his palm from his fingernails. Huh. A quick glance down at his left hand showed that it was the same. He clenched and unclenched them, trying to confirm that nothing was broken.<br/><br/>With that checked, the boy knocked lightly on the door, wincing from the pain before quickly tucking his hands away into his jacket pockets.</div>"

As he gave a subtle pose to indicate the topic - most likely because 'summoning magical beings' sounded a little ridiculous in any serious conversation - which seemed familiar - but luckily, he spoke on before Kotori could recall the scene of him and the shirtless Noboru posing in the mall some time ago. As he stated that he was just checking in today, she gave a nod followed by a <font color=""green"">""Ah, yes, I'm fine. No need to worry.""</font> She gave an awkward half-smile at that - given that he'd heard her talking literally to herself, he had to know that 'fine' was a rather relative term. However, it was still as true as could be. He then handed her his phone number to be able to contact him on the matters before leaving after saying his goodbyes. <font color=""green"">""Yes, that's right,""</font> she confirmed her discharge date before giving another small bow as he was leaving: <font color=""green"">""Goodbye, Shinichi-san.""</font><br/><br/>Once he'd left, Kotori reached for her phone to save the number - which, she realised, was the first number outside her family's that she'd entered.

When the door wasn't opened afterwards, as she might have expected from a nurse, she put her phone aside before calling <font color=""green"">""Come in""</font> to whoever this visitor may be. Her mother had been a given, as had the police - and Rui, likely as a representative of the others, too, hadn't been completely unexpected. This left her wondering - until the door opened to reveal it to be Toma.<br/><br/>Kotori was quite surprised at that - but gave a small bow in greeting nonetheless. <font color=""green"">""Ah, good evening, Tanaka-senpai,""</font> she said - before getting a closer look at the older boy. Concern came over her face as she noticed that he looked more than a little under the weather - and he hadn't been the first person to do so today. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, are you alright?""</font> she asked, a little hesitantly - which likely seemed a little odd, considering that she was supposed to be the patient and he the visitor.</div>"

He had seen his sister's concerned expression but chose to ignore it, instead cooking her a hearty meal and putting her to sleep early.<br/><br/>He had been awake from 3.00 AM, the unease having become a lot more now. The bullies and the Yakuza was something he could deal with but this situation was turning out to me a lot more grave than expected and he feared for his sister's safety. The first thing he did was to reconfigure the speed dial on her phone and make it accessible. He then proceeded to check how the entire process would work and hoped that wherever she may end up, the lord gives him enough strength to reach her in time.<br/><br/>After the uncommon exercise he got into his routing of readying the clothes and making the lunches. He'd begin his search after school today.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>The school day dragged on slowly as he heard some idle chatter of the return of the two kidnapped. He eavesdropped to confirm the identities and was a bit relieved that Kotori-chan was alright. That meant that his plans after-school changed a bit.

It seems some people knew they went missing, likely from their parents, who were likely gossipers. He saw a lot of visitors come after he left Kotori's ward in the hospital the other day, with all that's happened, he knew this was a good turnout for her. In any case, the school day ended fairly normally, just a few students who failed were called out to retake their exams later in the week. Rui who scored well didn't need to. It was a Wednesday, so Kendo and Kyuudo were both on. He saw Kami earlier today, and he said he would be out looking for more clues.<br/><br/>He was trying to leave his schedule open in case Kotori and Sato wanted to ask him about the whole shadows affair. To be honest he didn't know much about it, and when he thought about it he couldn't find a meaning beyond just helping people, because that was the right thing to do. Then again, everyone was becoming steady friends, but he couldn't feel that vibe with Kazuki and his group...

He didn't really know what he was doing here, to be honest. Maybe he should just go home? ...No. It was time to stop being stupid. A mishap at a cosplay cafe- one that Mako himself had no hand in- should not be enough to make the two young men hate each other needlessly. Or at least be stupidly awkward at each other (though that was mostly on Mako's part). If they couldn't come out of this situation as friends, at least maybe they could come out of this genially enough to not cringe away from each other in the halls at school. That would not do at all.<br/><br/>He finally came to the room where the nurse told him the upperclassman was staying until tomorrow, his heart almost beating out of his chest. He rolled his eyes at his nervousness, or whatever this was.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">No reason to be so antsy, Mako. It's just talk. With another guy. Whom you're strangely obsessed with.<br/><br/>...Just open the fucking door.</span></font><br/><br/>Rather than follow his brain's rather blunt suggestion, he knocked politely on the door before entering. He put on what he hoped was his most winning smile, and walked fully into the room. There was a nervous beat of silence as Mako noted that, yes, Sato was still here, before he steeled himself and launched into what he hoped wasn't going to be a big ball of awkward.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Uh... hey.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Great start, Moritomi.</span></font> He paused again, then went on.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Missed you at drama practice.

Then I can give you a chance to hate me for more legitimate reasons.""</font><br/><br/>He laughed weakly at his lame joke, before stopping and staring at his feet.

He'd never before been so glad to be in it. After the last few days' events, such a simple thing felt like a miracle blessed straight from the gods themselves.<br/><br/>	He'd gotten discharged from the hospital the day before, and with little else to do, Sato ended up trying to call Rui. Fortunately he picked up, and after a long talk, Sato was informed of the reality of the situation. It only took a minute before Sato agreed to joining whatever makeshift rescue team Rui was in. A different kind of weight was on his shoulders now, though instead of the oppressing feeling that came with the last weight, it now filled Sato with determination.<br/><br/>	Unfortunately, after what felt like seconds of laying in his nest of blankets, Sato had to get back up to get ready for school again. Forcing himself through his morning ritual, Sato ended up finding himself seated across from his mother, both eating some kind of egg dish Sato didn't remember ever having before. His mind was still preoccupied with the mirror world things, but not even that kept him from noticing the peculiar scene.<br/><br/>	""Don't you have work?"" Sato questioned, before taking another bite of the breakfast that was made for him.<br/><br/>	""I usually leave an hour early most days,"" Sato's mother explained, ""but if you'd rather I left you alone today..."" She was already picking up her dishes, but Sato stopped her with one hand.<br/><br/>	""No. Please stay. I, appreciate you being here.""<br/><br/>	A warm smile formed upon her face before setting her food back down on the table. It was a quiet morning, and soon Sato was out the door. He'd decided to forget about the whole thing until at least after school, but before he could get moving, the teen felt his cellphone vibrate in his pocket. Whipping it out, he noticed a text from Rokurou. It wasn't even worth checking; Sato already knew what it was going to say.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>	Sato found himself, again, rushing out of the classroom with the crowd. It felt a lot better than the last time. Just being in class felt better. Exams were a thought of the past, all that action was over, and instead it was slow school days and the looming responsibility he'd taken on. Keeping up his promise to himself about forgetting about the mirror world for the day, Sato preoccupied himself with dealing with a few things. The first on his agenda was to find Mako Moritomi, wherever he was. He wasn't a third year, but Sato didn't really know if he was a first or second year, so the teen opted to check out all the classrooms. Luckily, Mako was a second year and it only took one stop before Sato found the boy.<br/><br/>	""Hey,"" Sato started. He'd thought it through, what he'd say, but it didn't sound right when he went through it again. ""About the other day, at the hospital. I'm sorry I didn't really give you an answer. It's just kinda stupid, this thing we've got going on. So, as you suggested, I'd like it if we could start this whole thing over.""<br/><br/>	That was still dumb but better than what he'd had originally. It must've looked weird, him being a scary intimidating third year apologizing to this underclassman about their relationship. But whatever. As he'd learned (albeit through unconventional means), he didn't need to uphold some appearance.<br/><br/>	Sato gave a laugh, rubbing the back of his hair. ""So, uh, where do we go from here? Assuming you're cool with trying to put all that awkward stuff behind us.""<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a></div>"

I'm doing fine,""</font> she said in response, giving a small bow while she did. Seeing the flowers in his hand, she gave a small smile - it was an unexpected, but not unwelcome, gesture; both the flowers and the smile. Much like the vase holding those that her mother had brought, flowers of all kinds always helped in making a hospital room a little more hospitable rather than their usually meticulously perfect and sterile selves.<br/><br/>However, that wasn't even the end of the ever-increasingly unexpected tide of visitors - a series of knocks followed before the door swung open, the one responsible making his entrance with his characteristic cheer being the Agriculture Club President, Matt. And in tow - and apparent distress at the other's brash entering - came Shizuka. She hesitated at the sight of the other visitors already present before apologising for the intrusion. <font color=""green"">""Oh, no, you're not disturbing at all, Otonashi-san, Harvester-senpai,""</font> Kotori said, shaking her head as she did - though it as true that the room was a little too small to accomodate quite this many guests. Holding up the fruit basket he'd brought along, Matt complained about having just got here - but relented anyway, dropping his gift off to a word of thanks from Kotori before heading out again.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Later that evening, long after visiting hours had ended, Kotori found herself herself with a small smile on her lips when she looked over to the bedside table - though she did feel a little guilty for having made everyone so worried, it was still nice to know that they cared so much. She really had been silly to think that it would be for the better to try and keep her distance from people, she thought as she shook her head at that.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Wednesday, June 3 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>Like any other, this school day came to a close with the bell signalling its end. And, again, like any other, the classroom erupted in activity and chatter. But unlike most days, some of that activity homed in on Kotori - even before she could finish up her notes. It had been much the same earlier during lunch break - after feeling the looks of more than a few of her classmates on her, they'd crowded around and asked her all sorts of questions. How she was, if she'd been hurt, who'd done it - questions which, unlike the rather recent last time she'd garnered such close attention, she actually tried to answer as well as she could. At least those that didn't pertain to anything after the kidnapping - she doubted that anyone, besides Akane who'd been there, would believe her even if she told the truth; leaving her instead to give the usual 'Can't remember anything' vagueness for an answer.<br/><br/>Her classmate wasn't the only one who'd believe it though - as Kotori had found out the day before, there weren't just four other who bore the power over their Persona. She'd given Rui a call - after deliberating about it for a good minute or five beforehand - and been given the brief low-down about what he knew about the whole thing. Much as expected, the other kidnapping cases had resulted in the victims actually showing up in the strange place and facing their own shadows - once she'd gotten over the whole magic and other worlds stuff, it seemed only logical. Soon enough, Kotori had more than willingly agreed to aid the investigation team.</div>"

Yamato would turn his attention to those remaining; listening to the suggestions intently, raising a hand to rest lightly under his chin as he nodded attentively. The young boys eyes would continue to flicker between the two before him, landing every so often upon his snoozing cousin- though only for a moment before returning to the females. However, he once again blinked in surprise at Shizuka's request, nodding his head in understanding as his face now bore his trademark smile, ""Of course. Masa couldn't get rid of me if he tried... And trust me, he does. But I'll see that he unwinds a bit."" With that, his attention would return to the one named Elena, bow slightly as his hand now returned to his side, ""Thank you for your suggestions. I'll drag him around a bit, see if anything garners his attention. Anyways, thanks again! And I'll see you both next year!"" With that, Yamato would make his way from the duo towards his cousin, dawning a mischievous smirk. 'Try to weasel your way out of this one,' he thought to himself.<br/><br/>	Masa had lost track of time in his snooze, not knowing if he had been asleep for hours or mere minutes before waking to the feeling of his phone vibrating in his pocket. Despite the threats of his cousin, Masahide had merely silenced his phone and tucked it away, but now that he was alone, he subtly slipped it from his pocket as he checked the screen. Sure enough, it was the local shrine. Despite not reading the actual contents of the message, Masa was sure it was a request for his assistance once more. In his mind, the boy began to wonder how he would separate himself from Yamato, and put an end to this charade. With a heavy sigh, he tucked away his phone as he faced forward and began to rise- greeted promptly by his cousin's form that bore a stupid grin.<br/><br/>	""Enjoy the nap?"" Yamato quizzed, eyeing over the older male who rose from the wooden bench with a slight groan. At this point, the smirk gave way to concern as Yamato's voice softened, ""Does this happen often?""<br/><br/>	""No."" Masahide said flatly, once again dusting off his clothes (though they bore no sign of dust), ""Just haven't slept well in the last couple of days.""<br/><br/>	""Yeah... Sure."" Yamato's tone hinted at his skepticism, but he merely shrugged it off as his smile returned, ""So, apparently there are a couple of hotspots around here. Your choice, but we're going to one.""<br/><br/>	Masa remained as straight faced as he could, amused by the irony of the situation. With a nod, he would start moving towards the doors, ""I'll show you the shrine. I've spent a lot of time there.""<br/><br/>	""Well, aren't we eager all of the sudden? Lead the way,"" and with that the duo set off.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma: High School: Kendo Club<br/><sub>6/3/2015</sub></div><br/><br/>	It had been a couple of days since Yamato's visit, but the soreness of his parting punch to Masa's jaw was still present and subtly distracting. When they arrived at the shrine and Masa had announced his plan to spend the day working, Yamato struck him without warning and merely walked away. The sudden shock and anger that welled within Masa was hardly suppressed, but enough for him to continue to the shrine and fulfill his self-appointed obligation. He figured he'd handle Yamato when he got home. After all, it was their annual visit, and normally they'd stay in the guest rooms. But Masahide returned home a few hours later, it was just his mother... And there was obviously something upsetting her. Sure enough, Yamato requested to return to Okinawa early, and his mother obliged- though hesitantly and not before apologizing profusely.<br/><br/>	""But in truth, I should've been the one apologizing..."" Masa's mother spoke out, turning her gaze away from her son with a sullen expression as she began to walk deeper into the home, but not before pausing long enough to utter her parting words, ""It's once a year, Masa. Do you truly think so little of us that you can't even give us that time?""<br/><br/>	Those words continued to echo in Masa's mind as he idly stared off into the gym, still wearing his gear from the practice merely minutes before.  As hard as the young man tried to remain focused, he could not. Instead he just sat there, rummaging through his own thoughts as the others continued their drills and routines. After a while, he stood and made his way to the locker room without a word- stripping himself of his gear and hopping into the shower. Once he was finished, dressed in his uniform once more, and had returned his gear; he made his way to the head of the club and apologized for his actions before leaving. He began making his way to the front gate, his vision focused forward as he made it a point to avoid any and all that might address him. That wasn’t hard, since the student that had gone missing seemed to garner most of the attention, which was a blessing, but Masa would be lying if he said he wasn’t curious himself… But that could wait. Besides, despite being her classmate, Masa really didn’t know much about her beyond her perfect score that surpassed him. <br/><br/>	Still, for now, he was merely attempting to get away and sort out his thoughts, but not before taking out his phone and thumbing through his contacts to Yamato's number. For a brief moment, he considered reaching out to him- apologizing for abandoning him like he did. But what was the point? No, Yamato would get over it soon enough, and if not- Masa would be alone as he always had been. Slipping his phone back into his pocket, he'd continue his stroll in silence. </div>"

It's not like he really should have expected his visit to Sato to go anywhere else than what it did, but still, he was an optimist at heart. However, the reality was that Sato had refused to answer his question at all, forcing Mako to stand awkwardly there for what felt like forever, waiting for a response that was never coming, until he finally awkwardly made an excuse and shuffled off, defeated.<br/><br/>He buried his face in his hands, groaning quietly under his breath. It was bad enough that the guy probably thought he was some kind of creepy psychopath now, but because of that, he'd never have a chance to sort through this bizarre chaos of emotion caused by the cafe incident.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">I mean, really- what did you expect?

He turned to see who had accosted him and--<br/><br/>His heart seemed to be trying to leap into his throat. Sato Hashimoto. Here. Not looking at him like some kind of insane idiot. Clearly, this was some sort of bizarre dream or something, since this kind of thing didn't happen in the real world.<br/><br/>""About the other day, at the hospital. I'm sorry I didn't really give you an answer. It's just kinda stupid, this thing we've got going on. So, as you suggested, I'd like it if we could start this whole thing over.""<br/><br/>...Okay.

Even if he still wasn't entirely convinced that this wasn't a dream.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, uh... did you want to grab something to eat? I know a few decent places in town.

Sato cringed when he saw the pain on the second year's face. Sato watched the younger teen eagerly as he awaited his response, and what he got was not what he expected, so Mako's laugh came out as a bit jarring.<br/><br/> <font color=""#0076a3"">""Am I cool with it?

He was about to say yes without a second thought, since it legitimately sounded good, but he immediately recalled two things: archery practice, and Rokurou's text. Would it be... good, to just kinda skip over that? It'd be kinda awkward to shoot down anything Mako was going to suggest immediately after saying that he wanted to reconcile.<br/><br/>	""Sure,"" Sato replied, switching to a more comfortable position with his weight shifted to one hip. ""Let's do that.""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Sato found himself at some restaurant Mako dragged him to. Thankfully, the younger boy didn't try to pull some weird joke and try to take them over to the maid cafe. They were seated by the winow, as per Sato's request, and were waiting for their meals. Despite the friendly setting and the conversation they mustered, Sato's mind was sidetracked. The place they were at was very close to the alley he was kidnapped in. For some reason, there was a vivid memory of this particular restaurant in his head. Thinking about it, he wasn't sure if Mako knew that Sato was a victim of the cult, let alone if he even cared about it all. Well, Mako showed at the hospital. He had to have known, right? Thinking back on it, Sato wanted to say it was Mako who'd asked about the kidnappings before the exams, but he soon recalled that it was that one Toma kid.<br/><br/>	Sato sighed, leaning back into his chair. When would their food arrive? He was hardly following the conversation anymore, only reply to whatever Mako was saying with the same amount of thought of when he was showering in the morning. After the whole shadow incident, he'd wanted peaceful days to deal with everything, but since the persona ability came with facing your shadow, it was only natural that he was to be thrust into a much more exciting life soon. Sure, he could've said no to Rui when he asked him to join the team, but if he could use the power he acquired to save others that were kidnapped... how <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> you say no?<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">Oh, food's done.</span><br/><br/>	Sato didn't even remember what he ordered. It was some kind of donburi or something. He didn't even care, really. Anything sounded good. It tasted pretty good too, Sato decided as he started eating it. Whatever they were talking about died out once the food arrived, and Sato stared at the steam rising from their table until the silence was almost painful.<br/><br/>	""Hey,"" Sato said, ""About those kidnapping... do you know anything about them? As in, have you ever seen anything of the cult around town?""</div>"

As a rule, he had deliberately avoided the Star Drop Cafe, and in fact had tried to find a place as far away from that whole situation as possible. He'd have to be some kind of an asshole (or idiot) to think going back there was a good idea. Besides, this place had the best yakisoba in town- what wasn't there to love?<br/><br/>Still, even with the nice conversation and the smell of their food drifting in from the kitchens, Sato seemed... distracted. Like his mind was in two different places- here, and somewhere else.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Well, obviously. It hasn't even been ten days since he was kidnapped. Less than a day since he's been back. Of course he's going to be sidetracked.</span></font><br/><br/>That was the other subject he'd been deliberately avoiding today.

And besides, if he was right, the upperclassman probably wanted to forget all this had happened in the first place, and tearing open that wound was... counterproductive.<br/><br/>Mako perked up when their food had arrived, sizzling pleasantly- his yakisoba, and Sato's donburi. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Excellent choice.</span></font> They ate in silence for a little while, before Sato seemed to gather himself slightly.<br/><br/>""Hey,"" Sato said, ""About those kidnappings... do you know anything about them? As in, have you ever seen anything of the cult around town?""<br/><br/>Mako paused, a bite of noodles halfway to his mouth. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Hmm. Now he's bringing it up. Unexpected, but...</span></font> He set the bite of food and his chopsticks down with equal care, pondering Sato's question.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""I... I know very little about the case, to be honest. I mean, it's not like this cult is running around in broad daylight, flapping their robes around like idiots- might be bad for their reputation, such as it is. All I really know is... I guess what everyone else knows. A lot of kids go missing for a few days, then just as mysteriously as before, come back.""</font><br/><br/>He looked out the window, his expression going stern. <font color=""#0076a3"">""I don't like it. For the first part, they're targeting kids. That's pretty messed up, I have to say. And worse, no one seems to know why. The police are completely baffled, it seems like, or they just don't care, since everyone has come back. Well, what if next time, they don't? What if someone gets hurt, or worse? What's it going to take for someone to take all of this seriously...?""</font><br/><br/>His hands clenched slightly.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""But you know what the worst part is? How useless I feel. My classmates are getting picked off, one by one- or even two by two, now- and there's not a damn thing I can do to help. Shirohane-san... she's in my class. What if she didn't come back? What if you hadn't? What if next time... something really bad happens? <br/><br/>""...And no matter how much I keep wondering about it, it's not going to help anything. I mean, I'm just 17, I'm basically still a child. I can box, sure, I can fight, and I know my way around town, and I'm handy with a knife when I need to be... but what can I really accomplish? I'm not a detective. I'm not a policeman. I'm just a high school student who did better than anticipated on his midterms. Which, given the circumstances, doesn't amount to much.""</font><br/><br/>He sighed, then turned back to Sato, a rueful grin starting to spread across his features. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Sorry. Guess that got a little too heavy for a minute there. I just... I wish I could do more,""</font> he said, staring at his half-touched yakisoba. Suddenly he wasn't as hungry for it anymore.</div>"

Curiously, Akane didn't come over the other day, what happened? Must've been something important...Or she just couldn't be bothered to.

It looks like she was asking about RWBY, the manga in Ryan's hands.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Ah, that series.

Well, the series is about-"" Ryan was then soundly interrupted by a new person. <br/><br/>The new person had an aura of confidence about them, practically the exact opposite of Ryan. He seemed to know about RWBY though, so he was alright in his book. ""Yeah, that's exactly what it's about. There's a Japanese dub out right now if you're interested.

Sato tried a bit more of the food he ordered as he listened to the second year talk about the incidents. After hearing the despair in some of Mako's words, Sato felt a little disheartened. Mako was right. Whatever skills they had, whatever they've accomplished, they were still just highschool students trying to make it through the next test.<br/><br/>	But that was wrong. He'd never fought a day in his life, but he had a bow, a persona, and some heart. If Rui and the others didn't fight back because they're 'just kids', who would? With a new found determination sparkling in his eyes, Sato looked up from the rice dish and at Mako's face.<br/><br/>	""We're not getting 'picked off', Mako. We all made it back safely, right? I can't say why, but I'm confident that next time, if someone gets kidnapped, they'll come back just like I did. You can beat me up if I'm wrong."" Before he could continue on his sudden whim of inspiration, Sato stopped for a second and realized how dumb that sounded. He started snickering at himself, a wry smile on his face. ""Forgive me for being weird. I just... really hope that this ends soon. It's kinda hard waking up every morning, a nagging worry in the back of your mind about if someone got kidnapped. Especially after, y'know...""<br/><br/>	Sighing heavily, Sato put down his chopsticks. ""I... I can't really do this right now. I'm sorry."" And with that, he pushed himself up, getting the rest of his food to go and setting his half of the bill in front of Mako. It wasn't that he was in a debilitating melancholy, but it was just hard to keep being at this restaurant with Mako after everything that's been happening. He'd forgotten the reality of everything for a while, when he was in the hospital, but the memories of being kidnapped, the fear he had felt in that place...<br/><br/>	He couldn't stand to let Mako see him tearing up. Stepping outside of the restaurant, Sato wiped his eyes with his fingers, brushing the liquid off on his pants. Before he started heading home, Sato finally decided to check his phone. Surprisingly, the message wasn't the cue to head over to Rokurou's place, but instead a heads up about some thing they needed to do during practice today. <br/><br/>	Hopefully it wasn't important.</div>"

He considered going to visit Shizu, though he seemed to have seen Kami at the shops today too.

She still can't believe why they're slaving away at school when they could be perfectly comfortable in the confines of their houses? It just boggled her mind, but what was she going to do about it? With no club meetings for the day the girl decided she might as well do something productive in her time. The Shopping square seemed like the perfect place to go, and with extra money with her today, she might as well spend half of her allowance on the arcade or maybe buy something new, her closet isn't the most impressive out there, but who was she going to impress anyway?

Whenever she came across an item she seemed mildly interested in, she would either change her mind or simply didn't have enough money for it. Just as she was about to give up, a familiar figure did she chance upon. All she could do was groan in disbelief, of all the people to have crossed paths with today it had to be Kami. Sutoraiki Kaminari. Her childhood friend that, as much she won't admit, is arguable her closest friend. Then again, it had been a while since the two ever hung out, there was the time he offered to walk her home but that didn't exactly go according to plan. Maybe now was the time for that chance to arise again? Breathing deeply, she walked towards her friend, mustering up the courage to talk to him. Ayano didn't want to admit it, but she always felt a little embarrassed whenever she found herself talking to Kami, what was so embarrassing about talking to an old friend anyway? They made small talk and conversed for a while, catching up on each others lives and making small mentions of the rumors of the cult that have been plaguing the city.<br/><br/>Eventually, the two were walking out of the center, still talking to one another about how it had been too long since they've talked to each other and how she's actually slowly becoming more sociable, the brunette just brushed it off, her cheeks emitting a soft pink glow. Little did they know that light rain had already started to fall, Ayano didn't even bother to bring an umbrella because the forecast wasn't exactly sure as well.<br/><br/>Thankfully, her friend seemed to have taken precautions and reached into his bag to bring out an umbrella, asking her one more time if he can walk her home. The girl wasn't sure what to do...Her heart was pounding hard, she swore she could almost feel every beat reverberate in her ears, her eyes kept on looking back and forth to Kami and the umbrella, she didn't know what to do...Was it okay? Is it okay? What was she feeling? Barely a word escaping her mouth, Ayano quickly began to run away from the boy, he voiced his shock and began to trail on her. No...No...What was she doing? Why is she running away again? She thought she was finally able to come clean and say it right to his face, but she was wrong, dead wrong. The clouds began to take on an ominous shade as the rain poured heavily on the city, her footsteps and the pitter patter of the rain were the only things she could hear, Kami's not long behind hers. Her legs began to feel weak and as fortune would have it, an alleyway was readily available for her, disregarding anything else but her pursuer, she quickly ducked into the alley, her panting could almost echo throughout the alley. She closed her eyes and clutched her head as she slumped. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""What's wrong with me?!""</font></span></span><br/><br/>She cried out, the rain evolving into a violent storm and turning her into a soaking mess. She stayed in that alley for a few minutes, hoping to have lost Kami, but given her situation right now, what she wouldn't do to have the boy escort her right in front of her house...She wanted nothing to do right now than go home. Her ears picking up the sounds of light footsteps she looked up with a smile, hoping her friend had come to her rescue...However, her smile changed into a look of horror as she looked up to see a robed figure, looming over her like a predator catching its prey. There she was, looking straight into the eyes of the same cult she was investigating, and where it led her, she didn't want to know anymore. The girl's whole body froze from outright fear, her brain only said one thing right now <span class=""bb-i"">'Run!'</span>. With all of her strength, she quickly darted to the other side of the alley only to be stopped by more of the shady members, before she could even react, a man from behind had gripped one of her arms tightly, disabling her chances of escape. Within mere seconds, a cloth had been pressed to her mouth, filling her nostrils with a nauseating scent, her vision starting to blur and her body becoming weak.<br/><br/>Why? Why? Why? The thought looped on repeat in her mind as she struggled to keep herself awake. Why her? What did she do? What could they have possibly wanted with someone like her? It didn't make any sense, and the more she tried to think of it, the more her vision started to darken. Soon she felt nothing and her consciousness drifted away...</div>"

And for that break, it finally gave her a reason to check out the new rec center she never had the time to check out. There were many things to do but in the end, she decided on swimming. It's been quite a few years since the last time she was able to swim, given how distracted and busy she was. She been to plenty hot springs to relax in but swimming in a pool was something else entirely. She could get some exercise in while having fun at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.<br/><br/>Staring at the ceiling of the center as the floated about on her back, her thoughts turned to Kotori.

Kotori had to have been confused as she was after everything but considering her growing disdain for hospitals, she decided against it.

It's finally complete.""</font> Hidden hazel eyes gazed proudly at the majestic, white long coat settled atop the sewing machine table. With just one glance, one can clearly tell that it was a male wear but what they wouldn't know was that Shizuka had tailored it specifically for herself. No, she did not discover a new true passion as a crossdresser to seduce young maidens to fall for her dashing, male counterpart looks. It was quite simple, the theme for the incoming week at the cosplay cafe she worked at was gonna be a royalty banquet with princes and princesses. But it doesn't end there, the waiters and waitresses are required to <span class=""bb-i"">crossdress</span>.<br/><br/>The thought of being in charge of the make up and hair dressing the waiters into princesses excited the raven haired girl as it posed a challenge. Briefly recalling the incident with Sato, she had more practice with the make up kit to further improve her skills and techniques ever since. She'll have the waiters transform into elegant, graceful princesses or she'd die trying <span class=""bb-s"">or at least to the point where she can't lift a make up brush anymore</span>. But of course, not only was the cosplayer practicing to make males into pretty females, she had to try her hands at the other way around too. Since she hadn't cosplayed male characters or masculine characters so far, all she could manage to pull off was to make herself look bishonen or pretty boy and nowhere near masculine. Oh well, at least modern Japanese girls were into those types nowadays. If it pleases the customers then she saw no problem with it.<br/><br/>Aside from her long coat prince outfit, the costume that Rui had ordered to be made was done as well. It had actually been done a little earlier in the week but Shizuka figured that informing him on the weekend would probably be more convenient for the other. Bringing out her mobile phone from her purse, she texted away:<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">Subj: Costume ready for pick up ♪<br/>The costume you had me make is done, Shinichi-senpai!

After a few minutes he had a list. Naruto, Bleach, some more obscure stuff like Nanatsu No Taizai and Black Lagoon, and RWBY. That was the one thing he already knew about.<br/><br/>He made his way to some sort of shop for anime and manga and began browsing. After about ten minutes he had bought  way too much stuff. He struggled to walk out of the store with all his bags of stuff, passing by the game arcade before collapsing in a nearby bench. Ryan looked at all of his anime and manga related merchandise and sighed. Perhaps 30 pounds of figurines, posters, manga, and DVDs was too much. He may have also blown his monthly spending allowance. ""I doubt she'll notice."" He whispered to himself, unsure of whether he was assuring himself or stating a fact. He looked at the game arcade and shrugged.

Though she'd promised herself to put herself forward a little more, it wasn't exactly going to just happen from one day to another. Still, she did at least not feel like shrinking away all the while she was talking, so maybe there was some hope at least. Seeing as there were no other customers in the store at the moment, she looked around the shop - even as her thoughts slowly returned to the events of the past week.<br/><br/>As expected, there'd been a lot of buzz about the whole kidnapping - but once it became clear that there wasn't much more to go on than last time, the school-wide interest died down as quickly as before. As such, it was soon back to business as usual - even if Kotori was slightly worried about how much she might have missed due to her absence.<br/><br/>Then there'd also been the talk with Rui - though they'd spoken about the subject on the phone already, that had been mostly clarifications and summaries, leaving the details for later. Once this later came to pass, things became a lot more clear - and less so at the same time. The kidnappings, the strange other worlds and the powers they had there, what they knew about shadows and personas - it was mostly guesswork as there just was so little to actually go on besides what they'd experienced directly. Still, it was good to know that there were those out there who would try and help - and Kotori only reconfirmed that she would do so too.<br/><br/>Agriculture Club, meanwhile, had been a little odd. Not out of the ordinary necessarily, but knowing that Matthew was a fellow persona holder - and had been so for longer without her knowing - did feel feel slightly on the strange side. He did seem a bit apologetic about the whole matter, but seeing as going further into the matter with Shizuka present would be a little difficult, Kotori was left to wonder exactly why that would be.<br/><br/>Kotori's thoughts were brought to an abrupt halt when a sudden movement before her caused her to nearly jump in surprise - which, a moment and a breath of relief later, turned out to be her mother's hand being waved in front of her face. Apparently, she'd been deeper in thought than she'd known or intended - much to the amusement of her mother, judging by the smile on her face and the way she laughed when Kotori quickly apologised for it before focusing back on the shop here and now.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehouse | Sunday, June 7 2015</span><br/><br/>Hearing the boy who'd been introduced to her as Kaminari, or Kami for short, talk about what had unfolded the previous day left a heavy feeling on Kotori - and everyone else, judging by the silence that followed his question. After it was decided that he'd be going along, Megumi informed them that the other two from Shoujin High, Tadao and Riku, were already underway ahead of them and recommended everyone get their preparations done.<br/><br/>Looking about, Kotori wasn't quite sure what to do - she'd been given a very brief rundown and introduction, but little more given the pressing matter. Megumi had helpfully identified Kotori's Persona's abilities more closely whilst Rui had explained that the rather large assortment of strewn about was intended for use on the other side, given that they were able to bring equipment with them - and having a backup weapon would never be a bad idea. Furthermore, it had been decided that she'd be on the team going in - together with Rui and Kami as well as Sato, who had been kidnapped on the same day as her. On one hand, Kotori was glad to be of help - but on the other, she couldn't help but feel nervous about it. Still, she promised to do her best and fully intended to uphold said promise.</div>"

The way Roku's hair floofed up reminded Sato of a bird. Aside from the noxious levels of adorability, looking at Naomi in the photo sent a pang of benign jealousy through the teen's body.<br/><br/>	Rokurou ripped the camera from Sato's hands, tossing it into some random cardboard box to the side. ""Rude,"" Sato said, walking up and over to the box the camera was thrown into to. ""This'll be for stuff I'll keep, okay?""<br/><br/>	""Yeah,"" Rokurou continued sorting through the box he had his legs wrapped around, occasionally putting things in a different box or staring at something for a while. Seating himself by some other mound of junk, Sato continued shifting through for things of interest or relevance. The general rule Rokurou gave to him and Naomi for sorting was that anything that anything they'd think would be important to him or his family was to be kept. It was a little vague, but turned out to be easy enough. For example, the priceless family heirloom was to be put in the designated box. The finger painting his baby brother did was not. The trombone was kept. The Beginner's Guide to Guitar was not.<br/><br/>	""Remind me why we're cleaning out your garage, Rokurou.""<br/><br/>	""Because,"" he said, pointing at Sato with what looked to be the remnants of a baseball bat. ""it's basically my closet. And Dad said I had to.""<br/><br/>	Sato rolled his eyes, before continuing on with the monotonous task of prepping for a move. The reality of the situation started creeping back into his mind, though he quickly forced his thoughts onto something else once a sense of melancholy started eating at him. The object of his focus became an archery bag. Opening it up, he found a worn-beyond-use bow and a bunch of arrows. Normally, he'd just toss them considering the age and apparent use of it all, but the arrows packed in with the bow caught his attention. They were... real. Well, not really. They were the same kind of arrows they had at the range, though the heads were replaced with something a little more sharp. Is that illegal? Why Rokurou had them, he could only guess. The conversation Sato'd had with Rui a while back flashed through his mind again. If he were to go into that 'mirror world' and fight 'shadows', something more potent than the practice arrows he had would be helpful.<br/><br/>	Stashing them beneath books and sheet music, Sato got up to set the box he'd been filling with undesired desirables outside the garage door, to be taken on his way out at the end of their cleaning adventure.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhQ3xRTKK-k"" rel=""nofollow"">Abandoned Warehouse</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">JUNE 7TH 2015, SUNDAY<br/>Mid-day</span><br/> <font color=""#aba000"">""I saw them...""</font> The boy said.<br/><br/>	Sato stood beside the other new member of the team, Kotori Shirohane. He was unsure of her abilities, but regardless, she had the power of a persona and was sure to be a strong asset. While they were already acquainted with the majority of their team members, anyone that was left were done moments ago. The witness, a boy named Kaminari apparently, urged the team on to get moving, but everyone decided to be careful and prepare accordingly. Additionally, hearing the name Riku surprised Sato a bit. He only knew one Riku... there was no way <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> guy was in the team too.<br/><br/>	Slipping the archery bag off from his shoulder, Sato bent down to sort through his equipment. He figured if he was going to fight, he'd use a weapon he was used to. How potent years-old makeshift arrows would be on shadows, Sato had no idea. Well, he had no idea what a shadow was even. Or how to use his persona, even. Megumi had given him and Kotori a quick rundown on everything and what they specifically could do, at least. Either way, Sato had a dozen arrows and the bow he'd gotten a few months back strapped to his back. It was only then that he realized a fatal flaw in his plan. If he ran out of arrows or had to fight close range, all he had were his arrows and persona. He needed something better. Something a little more reliable...<br/><br/>	And Sato found just that. There was a spread of equipment on a table nearby, and upon rustling through it a bit, the teen found just the thing. Drawing it out of its sheath to quality-check, Sato picked up a knife from the table. Hopefully nobody else needed it, as he was taking it. Now feeling adequately prepared, knife at his side and bow weighing at his back, Sato walked over to where Rui was, waiting for some kind of order. Though it was undeniable that the pit in his stomach was of fear, there was no stopping now. He could do something about the cult's kidnappings, and he'd made a promise to.</div>"

It didn't look too different from a normal house. Of course, Kami would know it was Ayano's house, recognizing every single detail. At the same time akin to the exterior of the house, many features seemed to have a retro pixelated style. This portion seemed to be just... Walking around the house, it didn't feel at all like a dungeon... It was quiet. At the same time it was also as Tadao and Riku said, it went on and on forever. They went through door to door, and everything repeated...<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""These must be some kind of trick...

It seemed only he, Kotori, and that Kaminari guy were heading into the dungeon at the moment. Sato didn't really have an opinion on the party composition. Rui and Kami were basically the oldest members of the group (not counting those private school kids), so it made sense they'd be there with the two rookies.<br/><br/>	Entering the dungeon, it wasn't really what Sato expected. Sure, that room his shadow was in was basically just some office but weird, but this... This dungeon was essentially just a house. Apparently, it looked like the victim's, Ayano's, house. Though, something was off. Sato didn't notice it immediately due to his nerves, but upon entering the place, the teen noted the peculiar appearance of the place. Everything was... pixelated? Like an old game's style of pixel art. He wasn't sure if it was just him, but the air felt like it was pressing on his chest. The atmosphere made his skin tingle.<br/><br/>	Rui lead the team through the house, though 'through' could be debated. They just kept going through doors and doors and doors, like they were going in a circle.  <font color=""slategray"">""There must be some kind of trick... Everyone, take a look around. There's probably some shadows hiding out.""</font> Rui told them, already beginning the search. <font color=""slategray"">""Megumi, run a scan for this area.""</font> Sato followed Rui's example, idly combing through any shelves or cupboards.

Something like this <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to happen on his and Kotori's first (well, technically second) time in the mirror world. It was, to say the least, concerning for the teen. As they searched the seemingly repeating rooms, Sato toyed with more of the surroundings. A cushion. A family picture. Squatting down until his eyes were level with it, Sato stared at the TV resting on some table. Curiously, he fiddled with any buttons on it, trying to turn it on or something.</div>"

It was a slightly... odd sight. From her own experience and what she'd heard of the others, Kotori had expected some twisted world of bizarre sights - but instead, they found themselves in front of a normal house. Or rather, mostly normal - the house itself seemed blurry and unclear; like a picture that hadn't quite loaded yet - or if she were to look at it without her glasses. They'd only gotten a brief look at it when the doors opened - but instead of some shadowy monster, two human figures appeared who turned out to be the Tadao and Riku who had gone on ahead already and gave a report on their findings.<br/><br/>Leaving the remaining members outside in case they needed backup, the team entered the house - Kotori would have to lie if she said she wasn't feeling rather nervous. Still, she wasn't alone - and this was to help a kidnapped victim, so she'd do her best to help them out. Kaminari meanwhile seemed even more anxious than her - though for different reasons, given how eager he was to get things going. After entering the house, things were quiet - no signs of shadows even on the second floor, only the continued theme of blurriness if one excepted the endless corridors thing; much like the recon party had described. Rui gave it a moment's thought before ordering them to search around for any clues, figuring it to be a trick of sorts.<br/><br/>If this had been a novel she were reading, Kotori would probably be quite engrossed in the strange mystery - but being an actual part of it made things decidedly less fun and interesting. Still, they had a mission to accomplish here - and it wouldn't finish itself just by standing around after all. As such, she too began to look around - even as Megumi's voice was heard, albeit with the telepathy apparently having rather bad connection. No one seemed too worried about it however, so Kotori put that worry aside and focused instead on her surroundings.<br/><br/>Kaminari had identified the house as the victim's, Ayano Wakahisa. Despite the slight blurriness, things were still recognisable and seemed to be what one would expect to find in a normal house. Still, there had to be something strange here - of that not only Rui was convinced. The others had already fanned out to begin the search for... anything, really. Kaminari was pacing around, looking and poking at anything and everything whilst Sato - himself new to the team, much like herself - seemed far less hesitant than her and was already checking anything that looked remotely shadow-y.<br/><br/>Looking around, Kotori decided to go for the classic in such a situation - and checked for any bookcases, just in case there actually was some secret passage hidden behind a fake book for once.</div>"

A similar result was achieved when trying to interact with any of the other electronics. Kami would also find that the family pictures began to become increasingly disturbing the further through the repeating rooms they went through... Kotori would also find that the books would not budge. The stove would always violent light in a pixelated flame, while game-like, the heat was very real. Rui soon found the one thing that wasn't abnormal, and that was a TV guide. Though the contents were strange and disturbing, there was a note inside for a specific channel. Once they put it in, the TV began to respond.<br/><br/>It was what appeared to be Ayano's life, but painfully and cheesily done in a drama fashion, complete with dramatic music and cheesy lines. It went through her school years, birthdays, soon it was of any of her times with Kami, and then it was a single shot of her sitting in her bedroom on the computer... The channel wouldn't change, she wouldn't move, but other ambient objects would move, signifying this was indeed still going.<br/><br/>As the silence uneasily set over the room, they began to feel it warp, the TV screen enlarged, until it engulfed the entire view, and pretty soon they were in the room depicted in the TV itself, and getting out of the chair, the one they thought was Ayano, was beginning to elongate as she turned and sat up from the chair. Each step taken, making the shadow taller, larger, lankier, until it was nothing but a silhouette with eyes towering easily a dozen feet above everyone else. As the party began to back away to prepare to fight it, they would hear laughter behind them.<br/><br/>They turned, the Ayanos from all the other scenes were there, standing behind them, laughing, their faces changing, and pretty soon they took on a similar appearance to the first that they saw.

Sighing, Sato continued looking around the room. Overlooking the changing family portraits and ignoring the lit stove, he decided to go catch up with Rui. Walking over to his side, Sato watched as their leader picked up a TV guide. Rui put in a specific channel, and it was as he did that did Sato notice the TV guide that they'd found was seemingly the only thing in the house-- dungeon-- that wasn't weirdly pixelated.<br/><br/>	The TV channel Rui flipped to surprised Sato. For one, it actually worked. Secondly, the channel was showing what was apparently the story of a girl's life. Sato assumed it was the victim, Ayano. It seemed pretty normal, presented in a generic sitcom fashion. The show eventually ended on some still of Ayano sitting in her bedroom. He watched for a few more seconds, until he noticed that it wasn't a still. Things were moving... just not her.<br/><br/>	It reminded Sato of one of those found footage horror movies. Sato half-expected Ayano to leap at the screen in a screamer or something, but it never happened. Instead, as he watched, the TV itself was changing, approaching them as it began to expand. Sato took a step back in surprise as the edges of the TV rushed past them, placing them in the midst of the scene they were just watching.<br/><br/>	A chill went up Sato's spine. He clenched his fists, hands ready to reach for a weapon. It occurred to him again that he'd never been in a real fight before... but, these weren't people. Entirely different entities, and Sato had the power of persona. Hopefully he wouldn't choke when he needed to call on the power of Chronos.<br/><br/>	The Ayano (which Sato remembered was not the actual Ayano) got of the chair it was in. As it approached them, its figure began to elongate with each step. It became something that looked straight out of a Junji Ito manga, a disgustingly stretched silhouette of something that was once human. Figuring it was going to attack, Sato got his bow out and nocked an arrow. A laughter coming from behind the group caught his attention, and he turned to look at whatever it came from. More Ayanos had appeared, though in different stages of life and different outfits.  They all did the same thing as the first, and soon enough the group of persona-users was surrounded by elongated shadows.<br/><br/> <font color=""magenta"">""I-I've gotten through! Are you all okay?... Wait these are Shadows! And they have you surrounded!""</font><br/><br/>	It was Megumi! Communication was back, filling Sato with a bit more confidence. What she said confirmed Sato's thought that these things were hostile.<br/><br/> <font color=""slategray"">""Excellent... Everyone, attack from all sides. Break their formation,""</font> Rui ordered.<br/><br/>	Sato nodded, looking around quickly to get a good look at what exactly was happening. They were surrounded by the shadows from all sides, though they didn't seem to be attacking immediately. They just needed to break through their formation before they could do something serious. Sato's fingers clenched on the end of the arrow, but he quickly realized it'd just be a waste of a shot. There were too many to be able to do anything big with just a single arrow.<br/><br/>	That familiar warmth... Sato remembered that conviction, that velvet room, that card. Reaching into his pocket, Sato took out that card. He looked at the arcana marked Fortune. Closing his eyes, feeling the power within his chest, a blue glow surrounded the teen. Crushing the card in his hand, Chronos appeared in front of him. A clarity flowed through Sato, heart beat stabilizing and fears slipping away. This was the strength of the persona ability. There was no way he'd let anyone die today.<br/><br/>	""Chronos!"" He shouted, swinging his free arm in front of him. The figure before him lifted its scythe above its head for a few seconds, before slashing it in a horizontal arc. Following the blade was a powerful trail of wind, blowing away one of the figures with the strength of the blow. The fierce gales dissipated after the blow, staggering the shadows adjacent to it. It didn't feel like he was exerting anything, but after having summoned his persona, Sato felt his breath get a little heavier. Forgetting to continue the assault, Sato looked at his persona, catching his breath. Its majestic blue, the temporal appearance, astounded Sato again. Questions began to flood into his mind again, but he shook his head, only then realizing he'd left himself wide open.</div>"

One may ask what triggered that particular impulse. The answer would be that he was unable to find the triple A batteries that had escaped from the remote control.

He was always proud of his vocabulary, and yet, he could not recall how it was called. In any case, that was neither here nor there, because the matter at hand was the batteries, not the... thing.<br/><br/>It was amazing how an object could disappear so easily, especially when one just scattered all his personal belongings on the floor, bed, desk, but nothing on the closet. Even the cubical TV was the bearer of miscellaneous stuff, which was piled up so dangerously that it would put the Tower of Pisa to shame. It could not even be called an organised mess; it was just an outright disaster.

It was faded and dusty, as it had not been used for quite a while. It also brought a certain memory back: when he first showed it to his parents, they did not allow him to take it to school because 1) he did not have any keys to begin with and 2) he might lose it or get it stolen by one of the kids. They were pretty adamant in their decision. So this thing had never left home, and as time passed by, Gen forgot about it, and before he knew it, he lost it. Or so he seemed.

These flavors are cherry, blueberry, lime and orange, respectively.""</font><br/><br/>The prince outfitted waiter kept up the gentle expression all the while explaining in detail. Once the order was taken, the silver haired waiter bowed and once more flashed a soft curve upon <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> lips. <font color=""violet"">""Your orders will be served shortly but until then, your patience will be much appreciated, milady. If you require any assistance, do not hesitate to call me.""</font> With the order sheet in hand, Shimizu left the customer's side and handed it over to the kitchen staff.<br/><br/>Having no customer to serve at the moment, Shizu was proudly overseeing the graceful waitresses (?) at work in all their unique princess outfits. There were several of them who were still clumsy with the high heel footwear they were forced to wear but thankfully, none of them had fallen so far. The cafe was actually busier today, not only because it was a weekend but it was the much awaited crossdressing royalty theme that the customers were after. It was a challenge but Shizu, who was in charge of the hair and make up, managed to pull it off after hours of make up magic. A satisfied sigh escaped her lips as she awaited for any more customers.</div>"

He also went to the early market to get the good stuff cheap first in the morning. He had made good relations with quite a few of the grocers there. He could get good fish and veggies much cheaper than others.<br/><br/>Today was the day where he'd be taking out his prized kimchi out and making a new batch to replace it. So it was a hard day at the kitchen. Chopping the ingredients and getting stuff ready. Though, it was a Korean dish Alexei couldn't describe its versatility and pairing options, it was like god sent for the families tight on a budget. <br/><br/>He let his beef marinate and began work on it as the time silently passed by. He was almost done with prep by the time Elena got up and from there it took half the time it would have. Elena enjoyed assisting her brother in the kitchen. To her it was one of those bonding times she read it in newspaper articles and heard from friends. Watching Alexei was like watching a calm lake, there were seldom any signs that gave away what he was feeling at any moment. He was always this picture of calm, firm reassurance that moved her. To look at him, one could be at ease instantly, his sincerity was without a doubt one of the most moving qualities about him. But it was that muted aggression in his wine red eyes that sometimes was unsettling.<br/><br/>She knew that there was nothing her brother loved more in this world. Something that he has murmured in his sleep a few times and in those group family hugs that he gives to her mother and herself but she couldn't help shake that lingering feeling that there was a sort of sorrow hidden inside him. As a brother he was too perfect and as a human being too model, she could talk about anything with him but still was terrified probing inside his mind. Often times, she felt that he was pushing himself too hard, that he was too tired but he would always soldier on with a smile. She never had seen her mother take such pains, for she had been stuck to a bed for as long as she could remember, their father's death had devastated her so thoroughly that she was just a shell of her former self, one that she was unlucky to have missed.<br/><br/>Alexei had seen that and judging by how hard he pushed himself, it was something he would trade everything in his life for. She had a mix of pity and envy for him but it was all shadowed by the massive pride she had for him to be her darling brother. She was confident that most mothers don't take such good care of their families that his brother did. He was a mother, a father, a brother, a mentor and a friend all rolled into one and she felt that even with all that she barely knew him. He was an expert at making it everything about the other person, so much that it made the other completely forget that he himself has some passions and interests.<br/><br/>A part of her enjoyed this princess treatment but a part felt guilty, she could only wait for the time she could grow up quickly and get married,so that she can leave him to care for himself and be happy. She often felt like this in the long silences they shared but oftentimes, it all left a bittersweet taste in her.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Elena!""</span></font> came a low grumble, breaking her out of her reverie.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#a187be"">""Y..Ye...Yess!""</font></span> she replied with a start.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""The kidnappings are on the rise again.

Going out with her friends instead on their incessant pushing.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Good. I want you to know that it is all okay. But should you ever find yourself in a situation. Call me first and then engage if you have to. Okay?""</font></span><br/><br/><font color=""#a187be""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yes..Ni-san!""</span></font> she replied timidly. Alexei meanwhile finished what he was doing and washed his hand. Wiping it from his apron before heading over to Elena, patting her head lovingly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""No matter where you are, I promise I'll be there as fast as I can, okay.""</font></span> he said before kissing her forehead. Here it was again, though she couldn't blame him for being protective of her since his schoolmates had been the most targeted in the last few months but she could see that even without these turn off events, he would have been the same.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Well let's finish the soup and head out for lunch in the evening. You'd like to go to that Cosplay cafe again?""</font></span> he asked her politely.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#a187be"">""Ye..Yeah, I'd love to.""</font></span><br/><br/>----<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Star Drop Cafe</div><br/><br/>As soon as they opened the door, a string of people dressed as some kind of manga royals greeted them in a flourishing bow. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#a187be"">""Wah!""</font></span> Elena exclaimed as she went all starry eyed at the handsome men and women in the room. Alexei was a bit surprised as well, about the depth of synchronization of the make-up and the costumes, he certainly felt like Guts walking in on the iconic ballroom scene in Vritanis in the Berserk manga with his tight long sleeved black crew-neck and pair of relaxed cargos. He felt a bit out of place but he was here to have a good time and so it shall be. <br/><br/>They both found a seat and sat down waiting for a server to come over.</div>"

The television spewed some sparks, the books remained illegible and unmoving and any secret passages decided to stay secret. The whole house still remained in its strange pixelated state and they didn't seem to be any closer to finding a clue - at least until Rui tuned the television to a station he'd found in the solely unblurred TV guide. Rather than sending out sparks, the screen instead flickered to life as a sound could be heard - before both stabilised into an actual image onscreen accompanied by corresponding sounds.<br/><br/>Stepped closer, as did everyone else, Kotori peered at the screen. On it was a drama of sorts - but verily overdone to the point of being hard to take serious. After needing a moment to get used to the excessively grandiose manner of speaking and overly dramatic musical accompaniment she realised that the person the drama seemed to be about was someone she recognised. She knew it was Ayano Wakahisa and that she went to the same school - that much she'd been told by the others - but it also was the same girl who'd been in a bit of a panic at the idol concert in the mall some time ago.<br/><br/>Thinking on that, she only realised that the events on screen had stopped moving when everyone started to look at each other in confusion at that. Kotori followed suit - until they realised that the screen wasn't actually frozen but rather just Ayano at its center. And then the TV itself began to move; growing ever larger and out of proportion.<br/><br/>Kotori drew a sharp breath and took a half-step aback - but just moments later the TV had stretched out so far that it completely engulfed the whole group, now finding itself in the world that had been shown inside the TV. And now that they'd arrived, Ayano stirred once more - but as she got up, she didn't seem to stop growing taller. In fact, she became ever more drawn out; within a few steps that she took toward the group becoming a barely humanoid shape of... <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> with eyes fixed on them from above as it had grown to towering proportions already.<br/><br/>Kotori stared wide-eyed at this... thing - was this how it had been with her for the others? But before she could wonder about it, laughter erupted from behind them - laughter which was quickly joined by many more voices. Whipping around, the group found itself confronted by every Ayano they'd seen on the TV show; still garbed in the same clothes - and slowly stepping towards them. And as they did, so too did they begin to contort into the same amorphous shadowy mass; barely even humanoid and with only two giant eyes to stare down at them with.<br/><br/>Staring up at them, Kotori gripped her weapon closely to her - if one could call it that. It had been decided to be the best choice, given that she probably wouldn't be needing one for attack rather than just something to keep any would-be attackers at bay and thus something long enough without being too heavy or requiring actual training to use. And thus, she clutched a traditional umbrella in her hand; even though no one really knew how it had ended on the pile of weapons.<br/><br/>Just then, a voice broke through the eerie distorted laughter from the circle of shadows - Megumi's. She was glad to be through - and surprised at the sudden shadow presence. Luckily though, Rui was less so and calmly ordered the group to attack the shadows. The way he kept his cool did help - if the group leader was confident, then that must mean that they had a chance. Or at least, that's what Kotori hoped.<br/><br/>Drawing a long, deep breath, she calmed her nerves - now wasn't the time to be nervous or scared. She was here to help the others help the girl, Ayano, trapped in this strange world just as they'd done for her. And she'd already decided to do her best - so no more hesitating. Raising her free hand as she released her breath, Kotori uttered a single word: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime.""</font> And with that, she clenched her hand into a fist - thereby shattering the spectral card that had appeared in her palm. Or perhaps it had always been there?<br/><br/>Either way, the result came immediately - as a ghostly silhouette formed in the air behind her; rapidly solidifying into the already familiar shape of her Persona. It was an action that she'd done for the first time - yet it felt as natural as breathing, requiring not a moment's thought or hesitation. The next step, however, wasn't quite as easy - she'd been told by Megumi about Kikuri-Hime's abilities and how to use them. Strong on the magical, weak on the physical side of things with only one offensive ability - one which she would have to picture in her mind and then command Kikuri-Hime to perform.<br/><br/>Fixing the nearest of the shadowy creatures with her eyes - they weren't really Ayano, they were just Shadows, Kotori repeated in her mind - Kotori focused her full attention on it as she spoke: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime. <span class=""bb-i"">Zio</span>.""</font> As if she'd just been waiting for that, Kikuri-Hime brought her hands, holding the large flower in them, close to her chest - when suddenly, without any forewarning, a bolt of lightning struck down from high above; arcing down onto the targeted shadow with a cracking boom even as a scything wind cut into some of the others.<br/><br/>Seeing the attack, knowing it was her power that had caused it - Kotori felt oddly calm. It was strange - looking at the shadows, she knew she should be feeling afraid. They were strange, otherworldy and malignant - yet with Kikuri-Hime at her side and the others, even if she'd only just met them, fighting along with her, she couldn't help but feel a small measure of confidence; hope even. With that, she quickly glanced at the others - knowing of Kikuri-Hime's abilities, Kotori also knew that she'd be able to restore injuries sustained in this mirror world and thus would make sure to keep a close eye on any damage being sustained.</div>"

There was a lot to do in town, yet none of it interested him. That was quite aggravating to him for some reason. After maybe half an hour of walking he decided to head home, right until he sw it out of the corner of his eye. The Star Drop Cafe. His stomach growled and he shrugged. He was hungry and there was a food place nearby, convenience dictated he should go in.<br/><br/>As he opened the door a line of fancily dressed men and women greeted him in a loud fashion. Ryan promptly yelped as if he was a small dog that got kicked. He didn't take being startled very well. Unfortunately he had already entered so it would he rude to leave. Ryan went to a nearby empty table and sat down. ""Oh god, why did I come in here. This is the worst decision I made all week."" He then remembered how he spent a month's worth of allowance on anime and manga a few days ago and grimaced. Whoops.<br/><br/>Ryan waited for the waiter and reflected on his day. He tried to set up all of the stuff he bought, but he didn't have enough space on his shelves for the figurines. He tried to rearrange stuff, but then he didn't have enough room for his school books. He then gave up and put up his posters. He ran out of tape, so he went out to get tape and somehow he wound up here. Weird day.</div>"

Kami amidst the flurry of spells bowled right through one of the shadows with Zeus, and Rui added a Gale Slash to the end of everyone's attacks to cover their movements. In moments the battle was suddenly even in positioning advantages.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Looks like they go down normally so we can attack them without fear, but watch out for any tricks they might have""</font>, he declared. Those elongated limbs weren't for nothing. Moments after he'd said that he was forced to jump back as their limbs whipped at them following a slow heaving movement. The shadows went from painfully slow, to erratically fast in the blink of an eye, and then returned. The whipping motions with their limbs and sudden bursts of speed, plus the range meant they had to be careful on approach, but casters in the back should have no problem out-ranging them. It was pretty straightforward from here on out. Charge them down.</div>"

None of the shadows managed to hit him straight on in his moment of distraction, though when he looked up he had to dive to the side to try to avoid one. The speed at which the attack came at him was surprising, as it had grazed him. The shadows seemed to be switching up their movement speeds. It slowly lumbered towards him after the lightning-quick slash. It was obnoxious, to say the least, even just watching it. Considering their lanky figure, Sato decided it'd be unwise to try to go for a shot from his bow considering he'd never been in a high-stress situation demanding both quick and accurate shooting before.<br/><br/>	Channeling his persona again with ease the likes of breathing, Sato sent his persona forward again. Instead of hitting the shadow, Chronos swung it's scythe to the side, the blue flame flaring up. Around one of the shadows, a polygon appeared on the ground, lighting up in a blinding white. A second passed, the shadow coming to a stop, no doubt about to attack. Right before it could take another swing at Sato, the shape erupted, hundreds of cards rushing out of it and latching onto the shadow's body, constricting its movements. Another moment passed before the cards themselves exploded in a fiery white light. When it cleared, the shadow was nothing more than a black smoke, dissipating into the air. They had this in the bag.</div>"

With the previous attack putting their foes into disarray, they at least didn't have to worry about attacks from behind - and Kotori found herself toward the rear of the group, leaving the more physically capable team members out front. They hadn't gotten away completely unscathed though - but fortunately, there hadn't been any actual injuries but merely scratches, light cuts and close calls, distressing though those may be.<br/><br/>With enough breathing space, Kotori had time to choose her next target before motioning toward it with one hand - the gesture not even being needed as Kikuri-Hime sprang into action once again; calling down another bolt of lightning from on high to strike one of the creatures. It hadn't even needed more than a passing thought - much like the others had said, it became second nature nearly immediately; as if one had always known how to utilise one's persona - though, in a sense, that was exactly how it was, after all. Still, there was no time to marvel at the sensation - instead, Kotori fixed her eyes on the shadow creatue. It had survived the immediate strike, though clearly taken damage - it seemed her defensive and supporting abilities really did outstrip her offensives ones, though at least the creature would be softened up for any subsequent attacks that were sure to dispatch it.<br/><br/>It looked like the tide of battle was rapidly turning in the group's favour despite having been caught flat-footed initially. Still, Rui had called every to be careful - and as such, Kotori quickly checked her surroundings, just to be sure, before checking up on the others' state, given that they were positioned closer to the enemies. Though she'd been told that Megumi could keep them updated on any strange shadow movements, it was one thing to know it but another to truly understand it for what it was - so Kotori found herself glancing around for any odd movements all the while.</div>"

Everyone had some form of magical attack to use, and when the time was right, Rui and Kami would charge in and strike the shadows down. As the battle continued, the numbers of shadows would thin, and thin, until there was nothing left. As the battle ended, the room changed back to the familiar look of Ayano's house.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""It looks like you're all in the clear...

As everyone trailed behind him, they realized and learned why this dungeon was called the 'Cave of Solitude'. Ayano's room was the cave. They came out into a spacious cavern, and would quickly notice how thick with spider webbing it was, emanating with electricity like some kind of network. As some of them got closer, they would realize that these webs were made from wires and cables. The party would hear talking, between likely Ayano and her shadow, though soon it would be interrupted.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Ayano!""</font>, Kami seemed to be overtaken by a sense of urgency as he swung right at Ayano's shadow, who simply stepped back away as she continued to speak.</div>"

What was so funny? Suddenly, the figure stood up from the chair and turned around to reveal that it was...her? The brunette was in shock, what is this? Some sort of prank? A set up? Who was this mystery copycat?

With Kami grabbing Ayano and taking her to safe spot, they didn't have to worry too much. They were having difficulty pinning it down, they would attempt to strike or cast spells at the shadow, but it would only swiftly dodge or avoid any direct hits. The battle wasn't getting any better either. The webs the shadow was firing at them was connecting with the other webs, and occasionally surged with electricity. In his experience, that electricity was likely not in their favour. The attacks also seemed to become more accurate whenever they were stepping on the web, so there was definitely some kind of detection on it... Among the attacks though, the party was managing to clear the webs... That might be the answer. He was going to as Megumi, but he quickly realized he was hearing the same static the moment the fight began... It was likely the shadow's doing.

For all their numbers and disconcerting appearances, they hadn't been too much of a threat. Though Kotori wasn't exactly going to complain - using Kikuri-Hime's healing abilities, she could at least make sure everyone was ready for whatever came next. Megumi quickly guided them up to the second floor. Kaminari raced ahead of the group, quite evidently desperate to help the girl who was trapped in this world. A number of doors awaited them - but each one that was tried turned out to be locked. All except one, as Megumi pointed out a moment later - the very same behind which she could sense something and someone behind. That was all that Kaminari needed as he bolted off right for the door again, pushing them aside as he rushed inside. Not knowing what to expect, Kotori followed the others; glancing around more than a little nervously.<br/><br/>Stepping inside, it the room that she'd expected turned out to be a cave instead - one hung to full of spiderwebs which, at a second glance, seemed to be pulsing with electricity. Whilst Kotori slowed down to take in these strange surroundings, Kaminari had no such compunctions - he raced straight for the center of both the room and the spider's web. Having been distracted by the strangeness of the place, she only now realised that at the very center of both the room and the spider's web stood a figure - or rather three. Blinking once, twice, Kotori first thought she was seeing things. Did she have multiple shadows? Was that even possible? Did that mean they'd be facing multiple enemies? A cold feeling ran down her spine at that - she'd thought it terrible enough just seeing the others have to face off against her shadow, but now two?<br/><br/>Kaminari meanwhile took a swing at one of the creatures - but it stepped aside effortlessly; raising its voice so that it could be heard all throughout the room. They spoke - Kotori only realised it was both of their voices after a moment - about the girl, Ayano, how she hid herself away, why she did it - though the words were spoken by the strange creatures that weren't Ayano, Kotori couldn't help but feel as if she was just scared and confused. But just then Ayano cried the fateful words: <font color=""#007236"">You're not me!</font><br/><br/>And with that, a frozen silence entered the room. It only lasted for a moment though, as it was suddenly broken by a sudden giggling that seemed to fill the whole spider-webbed cave. Left with little else but to stare on, Kotori watched as the two shadows melted down - and just before hope could spring up that perhaps that was all there was to it, a hand broke through the surface of mixed black and white. And then another. Then two, then six. Soon, dozens of both hands and feet were grasping from within the puddle, as if trying to lift themselves free - and slowly they did. And with them rose a face - no, two, no, more.<br/><br/>It took Kotori a few moments before she quite knew what she was looking at - some bizarre behemoth of disjointed limbs and faces, mechanical in nature, frightening to look upon and seeped with malice without a doubt even before it declared its full intention to kill everyone single person in the room. Kotori stepped back at the sight of the creature - but thankfully it retreated instead of surging forward. With a moment's pause, Kotori quickly looked around - and saw that Kaminari had quickly grabbed Ayano to get her to safety whilst Rui had already focused his attention on the enormous spider-like creature in whose web they found themselves. Sato seemed to be holding himself better than her too - leaving her to take a deep breath to try and calm herself as the battle began.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, things weren't quite that simple. Without much trouble and despite its size, the spider-shadow managed to dodge out of the way of their attacks and spewed webs in return. Though for all their attacks that missed the creature, they did strike the web behind - and with it tore strips off it; frayed cables hanging loose in more than one place now. Rui seemed to see this as their best bet - the connection to Megumi seemingly lost once more - and ordered the group to focus on the web rather than the spinner thereof whilst keeping an eye out for it.<br/><br/>It wasn't an easy task no doubt - but Kotori steeled herself for it, having the good fortune that Kikuri-Hime wouldn't need to actually get too close to utilise her offensive Zio spell, which she aimed at the web. Though even as she did, she feared that this fight might require more of her healing abilities than the previous one.</div>"
11739,Persona - The True Self,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76093-persona-the-true-self,"['Large Group', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'School']",2015-12-07 01:19:00,Sen,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5BDRpeMFkA"" rel=""nofollow"">Cave of Solitude</a></div>	Before long, the shadows were dropping like flies and the battle was over. Sato felt a smile make its way onto his lips, and he breathed out a sigh of relief. There was nothing to be afraid of if they all worked together. The battleground withdrew and returned to the appearance of Ayano's house, the pixelation almost normal looking after looking at it for as long as they had been. Having apparently completed some arbitrary objective, the group was allowed to continue on to the second floor.<br/><br/>	As the group went up, the look of the pixel-y yet typical household began to fade into darkness. Sato assumed it was the same house, and Kami confirmed, but the only light came from webs all over the hall that coursed with electricity, spitting sparks at them. They tried doors as they passed them, but they all seemed to be locked. As Sato tried another door, clicking as a lock kept him out, he wondered if there was even anything beyond these locked doors. Probably not, he decided as Megumi noted a particular door as having a girl and a 'big reading' beyond it. The shadow was likely leading them on in some twisted fashion.<br/><br/>	Kami rushed in through the door way, Sato trailing behind Rui. What surprised first was how his footsteps went from walking on wooden floorboards to stepping on the stone of a cavern floor. The cave was very open, betraying logic, though that was lost when a TV basically ate the room they were in. There were more electric cobwebs running across the walls and ceiling and everything else. Or... he peered at a web for a second. A spot of the threads was frayed, revealing the copper beneath. Wires? It didn't make much sense to Sato, but at least it solved the mystery of how spider webs could handle that much electricity. Kami's shout drew his attention to the more important matter: the victim. Sato watched as Kami charged at one of the girls standing at the end of the room. Seeing as it avoided the attack without a blink (and how much of a fit Kami had been having over saving Ayano in the first place), it had to be the shadow. That meant the real Ayano was there, albeit not safe and sound quite yet. But...<br/><br/>	Who was the third one? As if to answer his question, the third Ayano giggled, before 'greeting' Kami in a way that Sato knew was in no way Ayano, even as little as he knew her, plus how both of the shadows referred to the second girl as 'Ayano'. The shadows continued verbally harassing Ayano, and Sato felt bad for just standing there. But listening to what they were saying... Memories of his own shadow flooded back into his mind, everything that it had said, how he'd reacted, the events that followed. Everything it said was an exaggeration of those dark things he'd thought and done, what he wished would just go away. In a way everything that it said was true, and Sato didn't doubt that what he was listening to was a dramatized version of the dark side of Ayano's life. Sato clenched and unclenched his fists, steeling himself yet again. Like Rui and the others had done for him, Sato wasn't going to let anything happen to the victims. The scene played through his head again, how he'd reacted. It was when he said it that the shadow transformed, those three words. Was that the 'trigger'?<br/><br/>	Just as he heard Ayano start to shout at her shadows, Sato lifted his head and called out to Ayano. ""Wait, don't say it!""<br/><br/>	But it was useless, she was beyond getting through to. Silence filled the room after Ayano had cried out, before one of the Ayano shadows began to laugh uncontrollably. The two started to fuse back into one shadow, though it just looked like a blob of black and white goo. A tense moment passed like molasses before something began to rise from the monochrome ooze. Mechanical limbs dragged a large female head out the puddle. It ripped itself out with one last pull, revealing itself in all its splendor.<br/><br/>	Metal arms and legs held up a giant face as its abdomen with bodies composing the rest of its body. Like the punchline to some messed up joke, Sato realized it was supposed to be one hell of a spider. A figure standing on top of the monster pointed at everyone, giving a threat: <font color=""yellow"">""Now you pieces of shit have done it! I'm going to show you that I don't NEED ANYONE IN THIS WORLD! I'LL DO IT, I'LL PROVE IT BY KILLING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!""</font><br/><br/>	And then the battle began. The shadow scuttled backwards until its legs got onto some webbing. Sato watched carefully, knuckles white as he clenched the grip to his bow. He let out an alarmed gasp as it suddenly sped along the webs, spitting webbing at them as it did so. Making sure Ayano was safe before he did anything, Sato nocked an arrow into his bow. He tried his hardest to still his shaky body as he aimed at the spider. It was moving far faster than anything he'd ever shot at before, not to mention having to re-aim every several seconds to dodge a web shot. As the fight went on and Sato had trouble even keeping up with the spider as it scampered across its network of electrical webbing, he started to think that it was hopeless to try to hit it directly, seeing as it had already dodged everything the others had thrown at it. Still, he finally saw a good shot and he let go of the string, the arrow launching at a decent speed. Sato thought it was going to hit, as he had correctly guessed the speed and direction the spider was going and had adjusted accordingly, but it still dodged it with one swift movement around where the shot hit.<br/><br/>	The arrow instead pierced through a section of wire webbing. Frustrated, Sato took a step away from the spider, feeling his feet step on a bit of wire, tingling the sole of his foot with electricity. He glanced at it instinctively, and in the time it took to do that, the spider took another shot at him, this time shockingly accurate. Sato fortunately noticed it before it was too late and dived out of the way.<br/><br/> <font color=""slategray"">""Stay light on your feet, and clear the webs.""</font> Rui ordered. Sato nodded, noting how he'd pierced through the wires with that arrow earlier. Sato reached for another arrow, before realizing that doing it that way was going to do accomplish practically nothing. Instead, Sato reached out his hand again, a card conjuring itself again. His hand closed tight and Chronos appeared, immediately swinging its scythe. A gale whipped around a section of webbing, ripping and tearing it until there was just a big hole in the web.<br/><br/>	After the team had blasted the web with their persona's abilities a bit, it was looking a lot less solid. As they continued dodging the shots and pelting the web in reply, Sato prepped another Garula, aiming to rip the hole wider.</div>"

Of course, Kami chose to stay with Ayano, while Sato, Kotori and Rui would disperse. As the battle continued, it became increasingly clear that this battle of attrition was foolhardy. It took them far too much effort to reach that spider shadow, and on the web they moved a little slower while the shadow laughed and moved with alarming speed along the web... Taking out the webbing was definitely the answer, but they couldn't keep up.<br/><br/>This was bad... They couldn't call for back up or scan for some kind of weakness.

Stealing a glance at the others' handiwork, however, she saw that they weren't faring much better, it seemed. But before she could lose heart at what that meant for them in the long term, Rui already spoke up with a new plan: splitting up.<br/><br/>Kotori blinked in surprise - though mostly because splitting up when faced with some large threat usually ended badly for at least one of those involved in all the books she'd raid. Still, those were books and this was the real world - or real other realm, however one wished to called it. Furthermore, he was more experienced with these kinds of battles, so that she quickly nodded to show her understanding and then headed away from the others. Whilst it did relieve each individually a small measure by virtue of the shadow's attacks no longer being fired at a group but rather a single combatant, it didn't make much of a difference. Kotori was already starting to feel her breathing become heavier and more ragged as the constant exertion was starting to make itself known.<br/><br/>But now wasn't the time to falter - and as if to renew her resolve, a momentary crackling sound seemed to come from inside her head. It took her a moment to remember their telepathic support - and their other allies who were still outside. Or rather, had been as the webbed-up door was thrown open in a violent crash - and through stepped Akane and Noboru, Matthew and Leiko standing in the door behind them and keeping any attempt at re-webbing at bay. Relief washed over Kotori at that sight - though the small smile of respite quickly turned into a quizzical look of confusion when both Noboru and Akane both took one look at the creature and outright taunted it. More than just a bit unsure about what do do with their sudden appearance, she glanced between them, the shadow and Rui for exactly what to do.</div>"

From what he could surmise, this appeared to be one of those Cosplay Cafes he had heard so much about. He probably looked pretty dumb, those waiters were just doing their jobs by yelling at him. Loudly. He shivered and drew his jacket tightly around him. The room was warm enough to warrant shorts and a t-shirt, yet here he was shivering and wearing a jacket, a scarf, and jeans.<br/><br/>The manager came out and announced that today was the very first day of a brand new theme and that there would be a performance going on. ""Wait a minute... Is that the guy from Phoenix Ranger Featherman?"" He asked himself quietly. The performance started and a lot of squealing and loud music began, making Ryan cringe. ""This is definitely the worst decision I've made all week."" He covered his hears and looked around. He decided to move to an empty seat near the back, hopefully it would be somewhat quieter there. Nobody really played attention to him, they were all focused on this intense performance. A few minutes passed and the performance was thankfully coming to an end. An alarm sounded and Ryan groaned, was everything out to get him today? A man in a black hoodie sprinted by him and through the back entrance, Ryan decided to take action. He stood up from his chair and chased the thief out of the back door. <br/><br/>As Ryan began his sprint towards the thief, he felt adrenaline begin pumping through his veins. He hadn't gotten such a good workout since military school. As he got closer to the thief he prepared to tackle him to the ground, the chase needed to end soon. <span class=""bb-i"">'I need to start working out again. I shouldn't be this tired this quickly.'</span> Ryan began panting slightly and jumped to tackle the thief to the ground.</div>"

He got madder and madder, his vision growing red. He tore his shirt off in his blind rage, throwing it down to the ground. Tearing off the webbing, he grabbed Akane by the arms.<br/><br/><font color=""navy"">""Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck you, you freaky fuckin spider lady! How about you get a taste...of...this!""</font><br/><br/>Noboru swung round and round and round, hurling Akane directly on top of the spider to deal critical damage.<br/><br/>Taking the next initiative, Noboru rushed up and unleashed a hail of punches, trying his best to keep it aggro'd on him so it wouldn't attack anyone else if it so happened to escape.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Aiko Yamamoto-A Sidewalk</div><br/><br/>Aiko walked down the uncrowded sidewalk. He had just gotten back from a convention, one which he cosplayed in. It was a dirty secret of his, but that wouldn't stop him from doing it. It was just a matter of not being discovered. Today, he was Ryu, the World Warrior! Thankfully, his training with Noboru had given him muscle, making him look natural in his costume. His thoughts went on until a loud voice interrupted them.<br/><br/> ""Someone stop him!""<br/><br/>The idea raced in his head. He could play out his character to perfection! It was a great chance to prove himself. The thief raced down the street towards him and Aiko grinned. He took a stance, ready. 3. The thief sped up. 2. Closer. 1. Now. Aiko raised his fist backwards, and swung it forward and up. The first punch hit the thief in the gut, stunning him. ""MET....SUUUUUUUU,"" His fist now rose upwards right into the jaw of the thief. The world seemed to slow down as the impact of his fist struck the thief. ""SHOOOOOOOOOOORYUUUUKEN!"" Aiko barely looked behind his punch to see another person diving for the thief. Fuck. Aiko's punch drove the thief backwards, letting this hero-to-be catch him. As the two star crossed rivals embraced, Aiko, looked beyond, noticing some of his classmates, some of which were part of the cafe, heading towards the scene. Double fuck. Despite wanting to be the hero, Aiko took off the other way, making sure his secret ways stayed hidden.<br/></div>"

Normally her presence wasn't required during her father's business meetings, but the old man had insisted on Jun being home today. It usually meant that she was to be used as some bargaining chip to leverage a deal in her father's favor. It wouldn't be the first time he attempted to whore her out to some rich merchant's son or a young rising politician. It was fortunate then that none of them had insisted on her hand in marriage so far to cement the deal.<br/><br/>She tuned out most of what happened, nodding politely and replying with courteousness whenever she needed to deflect the conversation, but thankfully the young son of Asada Industries' CEO seemed to be nervous and shy about the whole meeting and didn't seem at all keen to force his presence on Jun. When the meal was done and Jun was instructed to ""show him around"", the two walked silently along the halls of the house with nary a word.<br/><br/>It was a pleasant change, that the potential fiance her parents were trying to set her up with wasn't bragging about his wealth or influence or trying to charm his way into Jun's pants. The young man seemed to be giving her quite the personal space. Jun smiled to herself at that. ""Kirigaya-san, you're awfully quiet."" She attempted conversation with her guest, deciding to be nice to him since he was being scarily considerate. ""When my father tries to arrange a meeting between a young man and me, they're usually a lot more bold.""<br/><br/>""Ah, sorry. I'm just not used to this."" The boy replied, laughing nervously. He stepped a little closer, no doubt feeling a little awkward to hold a conversation at arm's length. ""Truth is, I have a girl I fancy in school already. It's not something teenagers usually talk to their parents about, so...""<br/><br/>""Oh? I'm usually the one doing the rejecting but this time I've been pre-empted, huh?"" Jun joked, laughing lightly. ""What's she like? Have you confessed to her yet?"" As long as the servants saw her chatting amicably with the young man, there would be no drama later. It didn't seem like he would be interested in accepting his parents' proposal for the two of them to get together anyway. She could at least make an attempt at being civil, if for no reason other than to avoid the usual tantrum from her father.<br/><br/>""Ah, not yet."" Kirigaya replied as his cheeks went red. ""She's the class rep, and pretty popular in the class. She's dependable, bubbly and hardworking. She sits beside me in class, but I don't really talk to her much...""<br/><br/>Jun chuckled. ""You should say something to her. Girls like that don't stay single for long.""<br/><br/>The conversation continued for the next half an hour, Jun encouraging her guest to make a move on his crush, cracking a few jokes at his expense while hinting at her own orientation to make sure he didn't get the wrong idea. The guy was nice enough not to make a fuss out of it and apologized for how awkward meetings like that must be for Jun. Why couldn't more of the elite's children be like him?<br/><br/>When it was time for them to leave, their guests left without taking any offense from the young girl for once. Her father seemed to think she had finally met a young man she liked, and Jun didn't bother correcting him. He was technically correct in his presumptions, though the nuance was a little different.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1"">Warakuma Mall // Sun Drop Cafe</div><br/><br/>Jun hummed a merry tune as she entered the hall, in a good mood for once after her father left the house. It was rare that she was made to attend these arranged meetings and didn't raise hell with her father afterwards. Even her bodyguards were nice enough to give her a wide berth. Still, attending to unwanted guests was tiring, and Jun decided it was time to entertain her own desires.<br/><br/>She entered into the cosplay cafe, in the middle of a performance. It seemed like this cafe spent more money entertaining its customers than it could possibly make in a week. She sat down at a corner table, taking out the latest volume of <span class=""bb-i"">Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun</span> and reading it while she waited for one of the waiters to get to her. She was quickly becoming a regular here, she mused, if her weekend routine became any more, well, routine. The past few weekends of utilizing this cafe as her own reading corner seemed to have paid off since her guards usually left her alone once she entered.<br/><br/></div>"

Splitting up their attacks hardly helped too. They were clearly outsped, with the spiders lightning-fast movements a blur as they maneuvered heavy-footed across the web. Sato's flexed his hand out, cramped from the white-knuckled grip he had on his bow for the past while. There was no way they'd win at this rate...<br/><br/>	That just meant they had to change it up. Or rather, another factor had to be introduced. Said factor took the form of the door to the room bursting open. Noboru and Akane ran in, followed by the sounds of communications being restored. Sato gave a sigh of relief, even if the fight wasn't over yet. With Megumi back, and the backup team joining, the tides of battle might be in their favor now.<br/><br/>	Noboru shouted a bunch of obscenities and insults at the shadow, which provoked a very confused look from Sato. What... was he doing? Trying to piss it off more? Was this some obscure way of getting it to stop repairing the webs or something? Regardless of what Noboru's intentions were, the spider's attention was now directly on him and Akane, who had joined in on the 'roasting'. Sato might've laughed at some of the things they were saying, had the situation not been so serious. It irked him that they were playing around the way they were when they fighting for both theirs and Ayano's life. Sato glanced over at Kotori, who seemed similarly puzzled yet relieved, and then to Matt and Leiko, who guarded the door from any additional shadows. Without any orders, and no attacks directed at him, Sato stood where he was cautiously, watching Noboru's plan unfold.<br/><br/>	The two continued taunting, though after a bit of approaching and watching, the shadow slung some web at them, catching Akane and pinning her to the ground as the shadow spider crept onto her. Again, unsure of what to do, Sato merely watched as the shadow's hand things turned into giant blades, rearing to slice at Akane. But before it could do anything, Rui thankfully did something, summoning his persona to hold back the shadow momentarily. He shouted, <font color=""slategray"">""Take it down! Give it all you've got!""</font><br/><br/>	Sato's attention snapped back to himself, nodding even though nobody noticed. Rushing forward, Sato summoned his persona again as he aimed another arrow. Aiming straight at the shadow's most sensitive looking part, the figure on top, Sato fired the arrow. As it flew from the bow, Chronos generated another blast of wind, this time propelling the projectile at blurring speeds. Combined with he force of the gusts, the arrow hit hard. Sato smiled to himself over his own cleverness.<br/><br/>	As he went to do another Garula, Sato looked over at Noboru. To his surprise, the second year suddenly ripped off his shirt before ripping Akane out of the webbing. Grabbing her by the arms, Noboru began to swing the girl around like some kind of human merry-go-round, before launching her straight at the shadow. Akane did a powerful aerial kick and then quickly followed it up with her persona. Noboru started pummeling the shadow with his own fists, only adding onto the list of mind-numbing things Noboru had done in the minute or two he'd been in the fight.<br/><br/>	Pumping more wind attacks into the shadow, Sato stood on the side, exhausted from the exertion of the mirror world. Using his persona so much was starting to be a mental strain, his head throbbing as his persona swung at the shadow with its scythe. With the end of the battle in sight, Sato forced himself to give it everything he had left until the spider was stomped on.</div>"

Worse yet, the Shadow rapidly scittered across the web, pouncing on the helpless girl. Out of breath and too confused at the whole event, Kotori was too slow to mount any effective help as the Spider-Shadow raised its vicious stingers for an undoubtedly heavy blow.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime!""</font> Kotori called - but even as she feared that any help may be too late, Rui proved to have kept his cool and summoned Askr to step in and hold the creature in place for at least a momentary respite as he orderd everyone to attack right away. Seeing that several of the group were rather battered by the lengthy ordeal and the new arrivals had already had to contend with an attack themselves, Kotori used the opportunity to let Kikuri-Hime cast Media to make sure no one would be taken down by any unexpected counter-attacks.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Medi-ah?!""</font> Kotori's voice rather quickly peaked upwards in tandem with the how red her face turned as, for no apparent reason, Noboru suddenly tore his shirt off himself; leaving him bare-chested and madly tearing at the webbing surrounding Akane. Torn between trying to preserve some sense of decency at the sheer absurdity and keeping up with the fight, Kotori half-covered her face with one hand as Kikuri-Hime cast the healing spell even as Noboru flung Akane directly at the shadowy figure atop the spider; much to the displeasure of the flingee judging by the sounds being made by her.<br/><br/>Taking a deep breath - the exertion of it reminding Kotori that she couldn't continue this for too long - she focused (or at least tried to) back on the shadow itself. Between the barrage of Akane's attack, Noboru's punches and Sato's persona-assisted arrows, she wasn't very confident that she'd be making much of a difference - but Askr seemed to be struggling harder with holding the creature in place, so there was not time to waste in this opportunity.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori called - her voice only barely not wavering from either embarassment or exhaustion - as she held one hand out toward the shadowy figure atop the spider's body.

They did some major damage to the shadow, but it didn't look like enough as it rapidly scurried away. Great, now it was going to be difficult to catch again...<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""I've finished scanning, watch closely how the lightning moves on the webs, that should give you an idea where it's going to move, the less web there is, the easier it'll be to read it's movements""</span></font>, she informed Rui of this.

So not just webs... It might appear to try and make a killing blow... This meant Akane and Noboru were at a big disadvantage here, without navigator support to warn them of attack. They had to pinpoint the shadow's movements fast.<br/><br/>The lightning was moving around the web again, but now that it was dark... It was easier to see the pattern.

Sato flashed a thumbs up to his party members, a quick celebration for finally having gotten some good hits in. The joy was short lived, as the spider was back to doing its obnoxious scuttling thing. Megumi informed them of what she had found out through scanning, and Sato nodded subconsciously. His eyes focused on the webs and the electricity flowing through them, though he had to keep moving and watch out for any shots aimed at him. As he scanned for these things, Sato took a minute before he noticed the cavern began to fade into the darkness, the webs and spider disappearing into the black.<br/><br/>	Sato's eyes followed bursts of electricity running through parts of the webs as he stepped back onto a thinner area of webbed flooring. The cackling of the shadow filled the room, before he heard a rush of air and a crash. The shadow had probably attacked someone, lunging at them. Knowing it was getting up close to attack now was frightening to say the least. If it caught them, it'd be next to impossible to help another team-mate in the dark like that. <br/><br/>	At least the flow of the electricity was easy to see in the dark, meaning they could better predict where the spider was going to be. Assuming Megumi was right. She was always right though, right? If the shadow leaped right from where the electricity stopped, wouldn't it be almost easier to dodge than before?<br/><br/>	Whatever. Either way, it would take a good guess and some precision to hit it again. Summoning his persona for one last time, Sato watched the lightning rush through the webbing, the yellow sparks the only light in the room besides the faint glow of Chronos behind him. Holding his hand out, he traced the path of the electricity with a finger. Sato suddenly clenched his fist, and Chronos did a quick spin of the scythe before slashing, sending a wide blast of wind straight at where Sato thought the shadow was going to be.</div>"

But just as Kotori began hoping that they might be able to finish things here and now, the creature broke free and quickly scuttled away - meaning that the fight was going to drag on even further; an unappealing prospect to say the least. Still, if they managed to hold it down once, then maybe-<br/><br/>Before Kotori could finish the thought, Megumi's voice sounded in her head - a concept she still found a little odd - to inform the group of the purpose of the webs and the surges of electricity that went through them. Looking at the spider-shadow and its movements with this newfound knowledge, things did indeed become clearer - with the speed of their opponent, it might not be much of a warning, but every little bit would help. Rui called the information out loud - directed in Noboru's and Akane's direction it seemed; Kotori only then remembering that Megumi had mentioned there was a limit to her telepathic abilities.<br/><br/>She averted her eyes as quickly as she had glanced over to the two though, given the still shirtless state of one of them - Kotori did wish he'd put a shirt on, if only for some basic decency. Unfortunately for her, however, her wish was granted - but not in the way she would have liked as a darkness descended upon the cave, obscuring anything further than a few meters away. It was hard to make out any details - but at the same time, the lightning contrasted more noticeably. Still, not being able to see the others if they were too far away made Kotori more than a little nervous - not only because she was afraid she might accidentally hit someone but also because she wasn't sure if she'd be able to accurately pinpoint them if they were in need of healing.<br/><br/>With a lot more uncertainty than before, Kotori followed the patterns of lightning streaking through the dark - the lack of any real visible surroundings throwing of her sense of perspective a little, leaving her to wonder if it hadn't just become even faster - as she whispered her persona's name once more; not only because the fight was proving to be most arduous but also because it just seemed natural to not speak too loudly when it was dark. Said darkness was briefly illuminated when the next command was spoken as she took aim at the moving lightning pattern: <font color=""green"">""Zio.""</font></div>"

Grazed and slowed by Kami and Sato's spells, the shadow approached to try another killing blow more slowly than before, allowing Akane to intercept and hold it down, with Noboru immediately following up with an uppercut, causing the shadow to start capsizing backwards, chained into a flurry of punches and thrusts on the soft underbelly as a combined effort from Akane and Noboru. As Rui charged, the shadow flipped itself over again, and relit the room akin to that of a disco, before unleashing a blast of multi-coloured energy at the party.<br/><br/>Responding to the attack, Rui refined a Garula right through the middle, letting him slip in-between the waves, with Kami following in single file behind. Now they had a chance to deal a decisive blow. Rui started with the overhead slash as Kami followed with a horizontal swipe, and the two would keep alternating between their strikes and their Persona's attacks, before sending the shadow away in a pillar of wind and lightning with some help from Kotori and Sato.<br/><br/>Before the shadow even hit the ground, wailing in agony as it was defeated, everyone knew the result as the shadow landed, dissipating into a black mist and revealing the shadow's original form below.

But that wasn't the only cause - though it was only visible for a moment, the spider-shadow was cleary preparing to lunge once more; targeting Akane once again. <font color=""green"">""Ah...!""</font> was all that Kotori could bring out, a mix of surprise and a fearful warning, before things went dark once more. Starting into a run, despite her body making its protests known, she got close enough to barely make out the silhouettes in the dark against the electricity running through the cable-web - and breathed a sigh of relief when she realised that it wasn't the sight of the Shadow preying upon Akane but rather her classmate hold her own and a smaller silhouette punching the enormous Spider.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ki...

Covering her averted eyes at the unexpected brightness, Kotori was caught by surprise when the Shadow proved itself to be no less dangerous just because it had been thrown on its back and unleashed a many-coloured attack. Crossing her arms in front of her reflexively, she closed her eyes tightly in expectation of the incoming hit - except that it never came as upon gingerly opening one eye and peeking out through her glasses, she saw the backs of Kami and Rui charging straight at the shadow; having rushed right past her and somehow deflecting the attack.<br/><br/>Rather than relief, however, worry overtook her as she hadn't seen if the others had similar luck - and ordered Kikuri-Hime to cast <font color=""green"">""Media""</font> just to be safe as the group pounced upon the seemingly helpless Shadow. A quick glance to each of her companions showed that they were indeed still standing and fighting - so Kotori returned her attention to the Spider. Despite feeling rather weary at this point, she summoned Kikuri-Hime's assistance yet again as she called down a bolt of lightning to aid in the onslaught - in the hope that this really was the final push; a hope which was slowly starting to take a turn for the desperate.<br/><br/>Under the heavy assault of blade, fist, wind and lightning, the Shadow was toss up - and with an anguished cry that resounded throughout the whole cave fell to the ground; bursting into a quickly-dissipating black cloud at the heart of which lay the form of the original Shadow Ayano before the transformation. Rui had spoken words of encouragement to her before - but neither knowing the right words to say nor enough breath to speak them, Kotori's wish to help the girl through the ordeal remained merely a wish. Everything rested on the girl now - even as Kotori sank to her knees trying to catch her breath after the sheer exhaustion of the fight took its toll. If the Shadow transformed into its twisted combat form once again, she doubted she'd be able to put up much of a fight - even as she also doubted the wisdom of sitting out of gym class so often.</div>"

That thing...That terrifying amalgamation of limbs and heads was a manifestation of her, one that she didn't want to admit, one that she had kept hidden for so long. The words the two said, it was spine-chilling how hard they hit her, but all of it was true. In those heated moments she could see how hard everyone fought, with vigor, with resilience, especially Kami...The way he battled and pushed onward, almost as if it was...She shook her head, how was she able to accept this thing if she can't even accept her feelings first? The quarrel dragged on and the words that Rui said, it made something inside of her tick, as if a button had been pressed or a trigger had activated, she knew what she had to do now, especially since that the battle had been won.<br/><br/>Her two doppelgangers appeared once more, beaten into a sitting position, themselves facing away from each other but back-to-back. The White Ayano heaved and glared at her original, frowning and with her shrill voice said,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Haa...No fun, your piece of shit friends are no fun, Ayano!""</span></span><br/><br/>It slumped it's head backwards, arms flailing, hitting her twin on the head and demanding her to speak on her behalf. The Black Ayano turned it's head to the original, her eyes still closed and an indifferent expression cast upon her face.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""I'm tired, Yanary...What about you, Ayano? Are you tired yet?""</span></span><br/><br/>The monotone voice it echoed reminded the girl of herself, but now things will change. She looked down at the two, it was her, both of them. There was no denying now, she knows for a fact that these two mirror images are nothing but her own reflections given form. Now was the time to say it, to accept these two and start anew, the future looks bright after all.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Yeah...I'm tired. Tired of wasting my life behind a computer screen. Tired of pushing away the people I call friends.

What you guys said, I won't deny any of it. They were all true, even if they were kind of exaggerated...I guess the online world just ate away at me...""</font></span></span> <br/><br/>She sighed, kicking her leg slightly as another thought consumed her, a soft blush emanating from her cheeks as the two doppelgangers smiled and grinned respectively, the original's speech patterns quickly became hesitant and she fidgeted here and there.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""A-And...besides...I, no...We have a few loose ends to tie up with a certain someone.""</font></span></span><br/><br/>The girl scratched one side of her cheeks as they flushed once more. The two mirror images stood up on wonky legs and faced each other, their hands clasping one another, and slowly they were engulfed by a blue light. It almost seemed sinister but no, it actually felt quite calming. The lights surrounding each of the two Ayano's and before they faded, had a message to say to their renewed original.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Y'know...I guess our friends aren't absolute pieces of shit after all, right Ayano?""</span></span><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Quite. It feels nice to have people you can depend on...""</span></span><br/><br/>The blue light intensified as the two dissipated and <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/Qn3mRAu.png"" rel=""nofollow"">a new figure made itself welcome before the girl</a>. She stood in awe as the humanoid spoke to her, ones that would etch themselves in her memory for times to come.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#00aeef"">Thou art I, and I am thou.<br/>I am Dantalion. One who is of a million faces.</font></span></span><br/><br/>The figure soon disappeared and Ayano could swear that the words were still echoing inside of her head. The blue light faded and everything fell silent for a moment. This...Was this one of things things that the others were summoning earlier? And now she can do it too? She stared at her empty hand half-expecting something to come out or pop out due to the power but nothing came to fruition. Remembering that there was a search party that actually took the time to look for her, she turned to them and gave them a light smile, although that smile was quickly replaced with a scowl as a sharp pain coursed through her head and soon, her entire body. Everything spinning again, she tried to concentrate and stand on her legs but that simply worsened the situation, causing her to stumble and eventually fall to the ground. Her vision was starting to cloud, her eyes straining to keep things focused on her surroundings but to no use. Everything eventually faded to black and all but the faintest of sounds were nothing to the girl.</div>"

With the rescue being a success, everyone began to exit back to the normal world.

It was mostly about Megumi's navigational powers, but also something she noticed as she would say.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""That girl, Ayano was it...? She's...

She expected the ceiling of her room, that her experience was some kind of bad dream... But it was not. What she saw before her was a long table, herself seated in one of the seats near the front. Upon her table was inlaid, ""The Hermit"", with the number of that arcana below it, as well as the card's appearance. She looked down and noticed she was wearing some rather formal wear. It was akin to that you would find in an office worker, short tight skirt, leggings, blazer jacket and a blouse shirt with a tie, and noticed that she was looking through a pair of glasses. She seemed to still have a pair of headphones though, but their design was completely different. She pulled it up towards her ear, and could only hear a <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1iN41edczc"" rel=""nofollow"">particular melody</a>. It sounded pretty nice, but then she noticed the headphones weren't actually hooked up to anything, so it was quite peculiar... In any case, her attention would move to the very end of the table, the source of the very voice that awoke her to this room.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This, is a place between mind and matter, dream and reality. My name is Igor, and this is my assistant, Henrietta""</font>, he introduced. There was a tall blonde girl standing beside him, she looked quite professional, with long hair streaming easily to her waist.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""It appears you have been... Rescued, by your friends""</font>, Ayano as he said this, would notice that there were silhouettes seated at particular positions at the table.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""It would have been an unfortunate fate, had they not intervened...""</font>, he continued, shuffling around a few cards.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""You, represent the Hermit Arcana, it seems.

For now, you will be left with this key, and return to this room at your own accord""</font>, as he finished speaking, the lady Henrietta had already been walking over to Ayano's seat, and handed her a peculiar key. As she picked it up, her vision began to slowly fade.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But until then... Farewell""</font><br/><br/>As Ayano's vision returned to her... She was introduced to the white ceiling of a hospital room.</div>"

She was able to hear them murmuring something...Waking up? Alive? Okay? What was that all about? Rubbing her eyes with her palms, her vision started to get better and she soon realized that she was in the hospital! That must explain why everything was white, the brunette looked around her and saw her family all huddled around her, with her mother almost looking like she was about to bawl into tears any second now. Before she could reassure everyone that she was fine her mother suddenly embraced her in one tight hug, tears streaming down her face as she told her daughter that she, her father and brother went around looking for her during the day she went missing. The violent rain didn't stop them from trying their best to look for her, and even when the police started scouring as well, they never stopped their search. Hearing this, it made Ayano feel a heartwarming sense of emotion, there were no use for words and she simply hugged her mother back, thanking her and everyone else for their hard work. It had actually been such a long time since she actually hugged her mother, it was a refreshing experience...<br/><br/>Their reprieve was disturbed however when a knock came from the door, her little brother opened it and it was none other than Kami. Quite frankly, she was actually glad that he came to visit, it made her feel better. Her brother pointed out that it was actually Kami who delivered Ayano to the hospital and has been keeping a watchful eye over her up until her recovery now, if she wasn't in her current predicament right now she would've smacked her bratty sibling for even saying that, making her feel embarrassed and feel like a burden to the boy. She looked at him and lowered her head, repeatedly apologizing to him for causing so much trouble, if she would've just accepted his offer back then, none of that whole horror-fest would have happened in the first place. The boy scratched the back of his head, saying that she shouldn't worry about it, what mattered now was that she was safe. There was a pause as the two looked each other in the eye, a silence looming over the room before Ayano laughed.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Wow...That was incredibly cheesy, did you get that from one of your manga's or something?""</font></span></span><br/><br/>Soon her laughter died out and her parents were escorted outside by Kami, saying that he and Ayano have important matters to discuss. Ayano's mother looked completely mortified, a shocked expression arose from her face, saying that he better take good care of their daughter or else. Overhearing this, the brunette's face instantly became beet red, shouting to her mother,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""MOM! IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!""</font></span></span><br/><br/>She hid under her covers the moment she said that, unable to reveal her embarrassment from both her family and her friend. Kami hurriedly dismissed them, sheepishly nodding to them and when they were gone he let out a sigh, telling Ayano that the others would soon explain everything to her.</div>"

Today Rui was at the hospital, expectedly Kami was there, it also appears her family was here too, likely she had only just awoken. After Kami had his moment with her and her family, Rui walked in as if on queue on explanations about strange worlds and supernatural powers.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""slategray"">""Good afternoon, I'm here to talk to you about the Avengers Initiative""</font>,</span><br/><br/>was not how it went at all.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Yeah, although Kami should be enough to explain it all to you as well, but I'll keep it brief...""</font>, Rui then went to spend the next few minutes summing up what was happening, and the world and the power of the Persona.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""If you have additional questions, you can come to me... Or Kami, if you prefer""</font>, he finished.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""For the time being, I should leave you my contact number should you choose to contact me instead of Kami...

She shuffled here and there, and looked out the window, trying to avoid eye contact and focus her mind on something else, her reverie was disturbed however when another visitor came through the door. A person who she swears she had seen before...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Wait...Aren't you that Shinichi guy from the club?""</font></span></span><br/><br/>She blinked once and twice without even getting a response. He said something about the Avengers Initiative which just made the brunette roll her eyes and fold her arms, one of her eyebrows raised and her face adorned with an unamused expression. Really? He looked suave and cool but that line really killed the mood. After a long-winded explanation and exposition class about the strange world she was sent to, the investigation team, and the inner manifestation of oneself, the girl stared with a wide-eyed expression, the gears of her mind slowly trying to process what had just been said to her.<br/><br/>So...Those phantasmal-like images that they summoned in that battle, was Persona? She raised her hand as if to ask a question, her mouth agape, but she slowly retracted it and put it to her mouth, her head slowly nodding.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Persona? As in...Like that movie that was being shown a while back? That game? Do we like...have to shoot ourselves with guns to summon them?""</font></span></span><br/><br/>If so, what a morbid way of unleashing a power! Granted, the ones in the movie weren't actually guns but still...She's played the games, but to actually experience it upfront. Talk about a nerd's dream! But all of this was still quite a lot to take in. She grabbed her head and groaned as Rui explained more and gave his contact number to her, when he inquired about her having Kami's contact she blushed lightly. Her speech becoming sullied again and her voice becoming soft.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""O-Of course I do!""</font></span></span><br/><br/>An intriguing thought crossed Ayano's mind, with both Rui and Kami here, maybe this would be the best time to gather information on the cult happenings around Warakuma.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""So, you guys are part of this Investigation Team, right? Have you found anything about these cultists? What their motives are, who they are?""</font></span></span></div>"

He didn't seem happy about it though...<br/><font color=""#aba000""><br/>""Unfortunately... I haven't figured out much... I found that they've been infamously hard to track down, this is just the most active they've ever been, even more than last year it seems...

Since they're more active, hopefully they'll slip up at some point, and we get a more solid lead""</font>, he finished. So he decided to speak about it here in the hospital. That really must mean there wasn't much information at all. Kami was very close to managing a lead with Ayano's capture, but he knew his limits and didn't chase after that... Rui wondered what would happen if it was someone far more physically capable than Kami instead... Would it have been different? Well, there was no use thinking about it. It seems there wasn't much else to talk about, other than her ability.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So, we'll need your help. We feel your power of Persona may be a little different from ours though... It'll be easier for us to try it, but that'll have to wait for another time""</font>, he mentioned.</div>"

After it had enough, the shadow crept in for another lunge. Though, their magic attacks weared it down enough that Akane was able to intercept with Noboru doing an uppercut follow up. Sato watched, eyes adjusted to the darkness, as the spider fell back, exposing its vulnerable underbelly. The two physical attackers continued to assault it with punches and such, but before everyone else could capitalize on the moment, it flipped itself back over and emitted blasts of colorful energies at everyone.<br/><br/>	Rui responded with a precise Garula, allowing him and Kami to unleash a sword combo. The two's personas filled in the gaps, making it one big seamless attack. This time, Sato wasn't going to let them do it all. Though he previously thought himself at the limit, the thought of protecting Ayano and winning the battle, against the odds, filled him with determination. Chronos appeared in front of him, spinning its scythe. Combined with everyone else's efforts, a electric tornado blew the shadow away.<br/><br/>	Screeching, the shadow soon hit the ground, its body dissolving into a black mist upon contact. Its previous form was all that was left after: two monochrome Ayanos. They sat near the real Ayano. Realizing the battle was actually over, Sato almost stumbled to his knees, his body felt so weak. But he caught himself, and stood tall. Maybe the others were confident, but to Sato, fighting that big shadow was a gamble of their lives. Or maybe, it was just destiny that they'd win. Sato shook the thought away. Destiny or not, they'd carved their own path, and Ayano was safe now. Or... was she? She still had to accept her shadow, or everything they'd just done would all be for naught. Standing as tall as he could, Sato whispered, even if she couldn't hear it. ""This is you, Ayano... But it isn't all of you. We're all here for you.""<br/><br/>	Sato listened to the conversation between Ayano and her shadow(s), breathing a sigh of relief as she came to terms with herself. A blue light soon covered the two shadows, reminding Sato of his own persona. Right on cue, a feminine figure appeared before Ayano, encircled by what seemed to be screens. It faded away as quickly as it came, and expectedly, so did Ayano's consciousness. The girl collapsed to the ground, and they rushed in to help her, but it was obviously Kami who caught her. The rescue was a complete success.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Back at the warehouse, Sato felt he could breathe easier in the real world. Kami left to go deliver Ayano to the hospital, while everyone else stayed behind to discuss Ayano briefly. It seemed Megumi thought that Ayano had the same navigator ability as her, which was agreed to be pretty useful. Rui decided it was fruitless to try to discuss it before Ayano was awake, so everyone decided to call it a day.<br/><br/>	Sato stepped outside. The sun was starting to set, though the orange over the horizon still burned brightly. It was probably dinner time, but he didn't think to check neither his phone or watch as he walked home. Whatever time it was, Sato felt liked he would pass out just like Ayano.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Sato Hashimoto</span> // <a href=""https://youtu.be/zB2NABOqsFA"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma High</a></div>	It was the end of the school day, and Sato Hashimoto was leaning back in his seat. Normally, he waited for the rush of students to clear out before he got up. That was still the case, but it wasn't to avoid getting pushed around and the like. He felt dumb for being so happy about saving Ayano, but that was exactly it. They'd saved her from essentially some kind of pseudo-suicide. Ayano wasn't actually at school yet, obviously, seeing as she was administered to the hospital. That was why Sato decided to check in on her, to see how she was doing. He technically had archery practice to attend, but they'd understand if it was to go visit someone in the hospital. Sato shot Rokurou a quick text about it (purposely leaving out the name), and also noted how he was resigning from his ""co-prez"" status. It didn't actually hold any weight in the books, but it still meant he was dedicated to helping out at the club. And Sato was, just... with all this persona stuff happening, he knew there was no way he could always have time for club meetings. He had quit Drama for the same reason. They had enough males anyway.<br/><br/>	Sato rose from his seat, shoving his phone in his back pocket. He felt it vibrate as he did so, but Sato decided against checking the text. Getting his stuff together, Sato made his way out of the classroom. For once, the hum of fellow students bustling and chatting was a pleasant sound. He couldn't really word in his head why it was different now, or why he was in such a good mood, but it all just was.<br/><br/> <div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/>	Nobody seemed to be at the door, and it wasn't locked. He'd been allowed in on basis of being a concerned friend from school. Minus the friend part, it wasn't a lie, and Sato crept open the door to make sure there wasn't any personal moment going on. Seeing Rui and Kami inside, he took a step into the hospital room. He waved to Ayano, other hand clutching the strap of his school bag. Their conversation seemed to have come to the end. ""Sorry for barging in like this. I just wanted to make sure you're okay, Ayano. The whole persona thing is kinda rough at first.""</div>"

With them being a cult, they might been thinking up a way to summon this demon or monster by gathering sacrifices to appease this being, the thought made her spine shiver...What kind of eldritch horror would they conjure up if they become successful? And what does this spell for Warakuma or the world? The simple fact that they exist makes her reel in horror.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""So, we'll need your help.

As she spoke on, a small smile came over Kotori's lips - the words Ayano was speaking sounded familiar in a way. Though she couldn't hope to think she'd understand another person from so little, she still felt something almost like pride for having been able to help her find her own resolve,  no matter how small a contribution it may have been.<br/><br/>A short while later, back in the real world - it still felt a little strange to refer to it as such - Kaminari immediately excused himself to bring Ayano to the hospital. The rest remained behind, at the behest of Megumi - who informed everyone of the fact that Ayano's Persona, into which the twin shadows had transformed, had similar abilities to her own. However, with nothing more than a preliminary scan, they had little more to go on and thus decided to leave all that for another time as the group split up; no doubt glad to be able to head home for some rest - at least Kotori knew she was.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Monday, June 8 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>As the bell rung, signalling the end of classes and the start of the usual race for the classroom doors, Kotori once again remained at her seat as she finished up the day's notes; letting the room begin emptying out in doing so and only briefly looking up to give a small bow of goodbye should Akane happen to walk by. As Kotori put her pencil down, she stifled a sudden yawn before briefly lifting her glasses to rub her eyes for a moment - after the events the day before (and making up a story about a study group with a classmate or three for her mother once she got home), she'd felt like little more than taking a shower and then just laying down in bed until she quickly drifted off to sleep.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for her, however, the sheer heart-pounding excitement had still been far too fresh in her mind as that she'd have any chance of actually getting to sleep at any reasonable hour; instead laying awake for hours - the consequences of which she'd been feeling the whole day now. Putting her notebook together with her writing utensils back into her school bag, Kotori thought about what was still to do for the day. Her mother had said she didn't need any help or shopping done today, so she was free for Agriculture Club - or she could visit the girl, Ayano, in hospital. A wry half-smile came across Kotori's face at that thought - whilst it would perhaps be both polite and a nice thing to do, she already knew that she didn't actually want to go near the hospital if she didn't absolutely have to; even as she already headed out of the classroom.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club | After School</span><br/><br/>A faintest of knocks resounded from the door to the Agriculture Clubroom. A second or five passed before the door slowly opened and Kotori peeked inside in her usual way of entering. The room itself, meanwhile, was a similiarly usual sight by now - with dozens of potted plants and flowers of various sizes, shapes and colours strewn about the room. <font color=""green"">""Good afternoon,""</font> Kotori greeted whilst looking about for the usual occupants of the room, even as she already made her way to the table in the middle of the room; placing her bag besides the chair she sat down in - not just coincidentally the one before one of the newest additions to the veritable greenhouse of a floral panorama the clubroom had acquire.</div>"

It was quite a stark contrast to the events of the previous day - but not in the least bit unwelcome.

Not only would such a development have been far too fast - they'd only met a few weeks ago after all - but she couldn't recall a single instance where Matthew had treated either of them as anything other than fellow club members.

Caught off guard, Masa could only brace himself for the upcoming strike, but it never came as his partner withdrew slightly. Before Masa could lift his blade to continue the exercise, he felt the hand of the club's president on his shoulder. ""Masa,"" the familiar voice spoke again as the speakers frame came into view, ""You've been off your game lately. What's wrong?""<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">Nothing, I'm fine.</font>,"" Masa replied curtly, shrugging off the hand as he turned to face the male fully. He was an older male, about Masa's height but with a thicker frame, ""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">Just distracted</font>.""<br/><br/>	""Well, you've been distracted for days now. Your not doing anyone any good, including yourself."" The soft voice had been replaced with a now stern and precise tone, ""I think you need to call it a day. Some rest might-""<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">I said I'm fine. Thank you for your concern, but it's not needed</font>."" Masahide interjected, his gaze now focusing on his partner once more as he drew up his wooden sword once more. Once again, a hand collapsed on his shoulder much firmer than before as it practically spun him around.<br/><br/>	""Go home, Masa."" The president spoke up, his expression seeming almost angered, but Masa could make out the subtle tinge of concern. He'd seen this look on his mother's face before, and it was the same expression on Yamato's face before... Reacting almost instinctively, Masa turned his blade round, thrusting the pommel forward into the padded armor of the president. The force was still enough to stagger the boy and cause him to groan as Masa stepped forward, grasping the collar of the uniform. With a brisk and firm pull upwards and towards him, Masa pulled the president off his feet all the while glaring at the elder student. Shortly after the exchange, a pair of hands would be placed on Masahide's shoulder, tugging and practically throwing him backwards as his grip on the president loosened. Sure enough, the display had garnered the attention of other members of the club who now stood between the dark haired male and the leader of the club. With a click of his tongue, Masa turned his head to the side with eyes closed as he attempted to calm down. Once again, the familiar voice spoke, ""Go home, now! You're lucky I'm willing to look over this little outburst, but you've overstayed your welcome today.""<br/><br/>	Without another word, Masa turned and exited the dojo stopping at the locker-room long enough to store his equipment and catch a brisk shower. As he sat in silence -the sound of trickling water the only audible noise in the room- Masa's thoughts began to creep up on him, causing the male to shudder in a mix of the now chilly air and the unwanted memories. With an audible growl, he'd slam his fist onto the wall in both anger and confusion. Why? Why was this bothering him so much? He had been alone most of his life, and now he was finally feeling isolated? Yamato's expression continued coming to the forefront of his thoughts as Masa shook his head, withdrawing his hand from the wall to turn off the water. It was then that he noticed the sharp pain residing in his knuckles, withdrawing his hand as he looked over it. Sure enough, the blow had broken the skin, and it was a surprise it hadn't broken the knuckle. Clicking his tongue once more, Masa ran the water over the wound once to clean it before using his other hand to kill the water. After drying off and making his way back to the lockers, he would open his own and open the first aid kit he had stowed away. Wrapping the hand and dawning his own clothes, he began to set out to leave the school and enter the city of Warakuma.</div>"

Kotori nodded at that before turning back to Shizuka, the older boy's mumble going unheard before he then went on to ask exactly how the other girl had come up with such a question in the first place. Kotori would have to be lying if she said she wasn't curious - after all, she didn't want to give anyone any wrong ideas. Shizuka in turn said that she didn't have any particular reason.<br/><br/>But as she mentioned that she thought that there was something else going on, Kotori briefly tensed up - that was almost scarily close to the truth, though perhaps for different reasons that what Shizuka had extrapolated from it. Luckily though, Matthew quickly answered before she could try and find something to say; letting her know that he'd just have said it with flowers already. <font color=""green"">""R-right,""</font> Kotori quickly agreed, adding a nod for emphasis before glancing back at Matthew before her eyes wandered on to the most recently planted flowers - and then stopping on them for a moment.<br/><br/>Purple lilacs. White chamomile. Purple sweet peas. She hadn't thought anything further of it at the time, but with Matthew mentioning that he'd say it with flowers, Kotori stopped to think of their meanings - which brought about a rather rapid series of blinking before she looked back at Matthew, currently telling Shizuka to look at things from his perspective, even if that may be a little dangerous. Looking back to the flowers, then him and then to Shizuka, upon whom his eyes were laid, Kotori was left to wonder only one thing: Was Matthew trying to fell Shizuka he liked her? Looking at things in such a light - had Shizuka perhaps used the opportunity to ask whether he was in a relationship because she too liked him but couldn't just ask outright?<br/><br/>Looking between the two, a small smile came across Kotori's lips at the thought, though she decided not to say anything on the matter - after all, if she was wrong, it would be rather embarrassing for all of the involved.</div>"

This of course meant that she knew not of any of the meanings behind the flowers nor did she think Matt meant that when he said <span class=""bb-i""> the language of flowers</span>. The poor oblivious girl took his words literally, thinking that the foreign upperclassman would present his beloved admirer a bouquet of flowers or some sort, which he did no such thing to Kotori.<br/><br/>Embarrassed from the realization that she indeed was over thinking this way too much, her cheeks reddened into a light hue while hands covering the said cheeks. <font color=""violet"">""I-I-I'm truly so-sorry for the misunderstanding!""</font> Bowing repeatedly in an apologetic panic, Shizuka's voice shook as her lips struggled to speak clearly.

Kotori quickly raised a hand up to wave it off when she saw that the other girl immediately stood up to gather her things - almost throwing them off the table more than once in the rush. <font color=""green"">""Ah, no, it's...""</font> Kotori started, but before she could tell her that it wasn't a bother, Shizuka was already halfway through the door - literally, as she'd be all the way through if she hadn't run into it in its closed state.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Are you...""</font> was yet another beginning that Kotori didn't manage to finish as Shizuka was already out of the door before she could ask if she was already. She was a little concerned - but at the same time knew that she most likely wouldn't be able to catch up to the other girl. Matthew, meanwhile, seemed to be similarly concerned - and not just for that reason, as he turned to wonder if Shizuka may perhaps have been scared off. Looking back to the door and thinking on how flustered the girl had been, Kotori didn't take long to shake her head - she had the feeling that scared would be the wrong word.<br/><br/>The phone call that interrupted Matthew's words meanwhile seemed rather important - as he asked her to lock up; quickly getting his things to head out to work - though not before nearly stumbling over something. Picking up the handkerchief that had come to rest on the floor beside the table, Kotori was just about to nod in agreement that he should go after Shizuka to return it - but at that moment, his phone rang yet again. Unfortunately, it seemed that his work appointment was rather important - whilst a little disappointed at development, Kotori could at least agree that work would be important too. When Matthew mentioned returning the handkerchief later, she nodded quickly with a <font color=""green"">""Please do""</font> added for emphasis before he too was out the door and gone from sight.<br/><br/>Left alone in the club room, Kotori spent a moment looking at the open door - not even noticing that she still had the faintest of smiles on her face as she rather more calmly collected her things. Taking one last look around the flower-filled room after heading for the door, she gave a small bow toward the room before closing the door and locking up behind herself.<br/><br/>One detour to the teacher's lounge to drop off the clubroom key later, she stood near the school's main entrance; wondering what to do now that Agriculture Club had ended so unexpectedly soon.</div>"

Drip, drop.</span> Evening summer rain had started to shower over the town of Warakuma, tranquility washing over the little rural town. Its occupants were slowly making their way back home under umbrellas of different sorts.<br/><br/>One particular girl did not anticipate such change of weather, having to wait out the downpour under a roof. This girl, Shizuka, had just got off from her work at the cosplay cafe, despite informing her friends at the agriculture club otherwise. The reason she spouted was merely an excuse she thought up in a moment's spur. While the freshman did feel guilty for her action, she couldn't figure out why she was flustered to that extent.<br/><br/>The calming raindrops drowned out her thoughts when another person stepped under the roof, taking refuge from the seemingly ceaseless summer rain. With a slight curiosity, Shizuka's eyes turned towards the person, just to widen from surprise. <font color=""violet"">""Ha-Harvester-senpai?""</font><br/><br/>With the usual goofy expression upon his face, Matt turned to the surprised girl with a grin. <font color=""#aba000"">""oh hey Shizu you got caught up in this weather change too? hahahahaaa...""</font> Matt's laugh trailed off as his eyes wondered around a bit. <font color=""#aba000"">""oh yea you feelin ok from before?""</font> Reaching into his pocket the boy produced a handkerchief <font color=""#aba000"">""you seemed to have dropped something in your collision"" </font><br/><br/>In an attempt to calm herself, Shizuka gazed away from the upperclassman and towards the serene scenery of raindrops. <font color=""violet"">""A-Ah, yes, I hadn't expected this sudden change so I unfortunately haven't brought an umbrella with me.""</font> Despite the trembling, soft tone of her voice, the raven haired maiden loosened her tense posture and relaxed a little.<br/><br/>However, once the boy mentioned what had happened earlier this afternoon, she flinched slightly and tightened her hands together in front of her. <font color=""violet"">""Uhm... I-I'm alright...-- ...! I've been searching for it all afternoon, thank you senpai!""</font> With an expression of relief upon her half covered face, Shizuka received the handkerchief and kept it into her school bag.<br/><br/>After a brief pause of thoughtful silence, thinking over the events earlier in the day, the younger student parted her lips to speak once more, <font color=""violet"">""..... Harvester-senpai, .... what did you mean by the <span class=""bb-i"">language of flowers</span>? You haven't um.... gifted anyone with a bouquet of flowers, have you?""</font> With how soft her voice was, unless he were intently listening to her, it would've been easily drowned out by the sound of the harsh raindrops. Her eyes were averted towards the ground, with cheeks flushed rosy pink. The shoujo romance delusional girl had finally started to figure out why this has been bothering her, but admitting to it was a whole different story.<br/><br/>Matt had stood there watching the girl fumble around with her words seemingly able to hear everything as his expression had changed from the usual and it seemed somewhat more serious... if anything Matt's smile turned into a bit of embarased one as  the girls eyes averted from him.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">""huh? have I giv... no I've never done such a thing.... though""</font> Matt gave an embarased scratch at his face before continuing <font color=""#aba000"">""you do remind me of Lilacs""</font><br/><br/>A relieved smile made its way upon her lips at the answer but realizing this, Shizuka immediately hid her lips behind her hand in embarrassment. <span class=""bb-i"">'I-I mustn't be too obvious...!' </span>, Shizuka told herself, before what Matt said caught her attention. <font color=""violet"">""Lilacs...? What significant meaning does it hold? I-I apologize for not studying enough about flowers.""</font> <br/><br/>As Shizuka asked Matt about the meaning of Lilacs the boy became more fidgety as he restlessly scratched the back of his head. As experienced as he was with some things Matt was completely inexperienced in others, this was one of those things which made him extremely nervous which would probably seem obvious.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">""uhh... how do I um...come on man just say it""</font> Matt seemed to be psyching himself up <font color=""#aba000"">“Uh the Lilacs are known to represent… their known to represent first… first love”</font> by the end of the sentence Matt was almost mumbling with his hand now resting on the back of his neck.<br/><br/>Wait. <span class=""bb-i"">Wait.</span> Did she just hear that right? This wasn't another one of those delusional shoujo romance scenes she's been dreaming about right? Shizuka caught her breath, her hazel eyes now still towards the flustered boy. A long moment of silence had passed, save for the dropping noise of the rainfall, until the color upon her cheeks darkened and she could swear he could've heard the beating of her heart from how loud it was.<br/><br/>The lips of the girl shyly parted but no voice would come from it. It frustrated her how here Matt was, expressing himself how he felt, but she couldn't find the courage to do the same. Shaking her head, she attempted to muster all the courage she had as trembling hands firmly, yet gently, clasp one of the boy's hand between hers to raise it up to the height of her chest. <font color=""violet"">""I...... I admire you as well, Harvester-senpai.""</font><br/><br/>Astonished by the mutual feelings from the girl, Matt's facial expression was that of delightful surprise before flashing the widest grin he could manage, but one could tell he was still pretty embarrassed by the color of his cheeks. Shizuka returned the gesture with a sheepish smile, one that was warm and gentle enough to ward off the cooling feeling as a result from the rain.<br/><br/>The two had kept silence between them after the confession while they faced the raining scenery, a pair of hands being held together in an innocent bliss. When the rain had eventually lighten up, the upperclassman held his jacket above the freshman and assisted her home, after countless times of insisting despite her protests that she did not want to be a burden. Upon arriving at the gate of the Otonashi residence, the two bid farewell, exchanging expressions of true delight before parting ways for the night.</div>"

This whole day had been a bit uncomfortable, perhaps it was worry of some kind eating at his psyche. Alexei wasn't sure.<br/><br/>Slowly, he trudged to the Agriculture room. He could make out two distinct female voices and a male boisterous one. Surely, Matt had a few followers. Seeing how he too was a foreigner.

Not much changed even with her relationship with the president, though they both knew of their mutual feelings towards one another at least.<br/><br/>Today happened to be a day free from club meeting and part time work at the cafe so the girl found herself at the door to class 2-2. Why, one might ask. While the rest of the week might've gone uneventful for Shizuka, a gossip about a certain person she knew was being spread among the student body. It was not a pleasant one at that. Out of concern, the underclassman decided to pay a visit to that one upperclassman.<br/><br/>Before peeking her head into the classroom, the freshman called out in a hesitant voice as she slid the door, <font color=""violet"">""Is Saji-senpai available...?""</font><br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/leolycan"">@Leolycan</a></div>"

As the day came to a halt, she looked out the window and pondered to herself...What should she do after school?<br/><br/>Humming to herself, there wasn't particularly anything planned at this time, so maybe she'll just lounge around and browse at the mall or something. There wasn't a meeting with the club today, she did miss out on the past meeting though.

Although right now though, not a lot of eye-catching of titles, it might have something to do with the fact she's in the Romance section and romance is something that she tries to distance herself from, the girl was stumped for a minute, why did she even think of browsing this section?

It was like some ghost was sitting on his shoulder, whispering malice in his ear. Not even regular puffs of his favorite Luckies could soothe his brow. He had nothing to do for the rest of the day as Saturday was service day at Sagat's restaurant and Inoue had strangely been busy whole week. His meeting with Kotori too had not revealed anything new.<br/><br/>He felt a strange itch, a forboding of something bad about to happen. His first priority was Elena. He rushed out of the school, sprinting his way to the parking lot to pick up his bike and zoomed to his sister. He was at the site within a few moments. Waiting a bit impatiently at the gates as juniors came out. Some giving him a sidewards dismissive glance, he glared back at them to make them skittle away like rats.<br/><br/>Soon Elena appeared, seemingly busy texting. Not watching where she walked. Alexei watched her calmly, holding back his first reaction to warn her of misstep. <br/><br/>His phone buzzed as she looked up, a palm coming over her lips to show her surprise. She started into a light jog as she saw him soon coming up to the gates.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc""><span class=""bb-b"">""You came here, Ni-san!""</span></font> she asked surprised.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Yeah! had nothing to do.

One of your dresses has faded quite a bit, thought you needed one.""</font></span> he said non-chalantly. As the one who washed the clothes at home, it was not surprising that he was aware of the wear-tear of everything that was in Dragunov household. Elena shrugged at his response, trying her best to hide her delight. It was always good to go shopping with Alexei, he wasn't a bit hurried and allowed her ample time to try almost the whole shop. With a spring in her step she followed him to his ride and they were off to the mall.<br/><br/>--- Warakuma Mall: Shopping Center.<br/><br/>Alexei had thought that keeping her in front of his eyes would calm the foreboding he felt but it had only worsened. He felt a bit weak, thinking about what if she got taken in front of him. As he walked a pace behind his kid sister, he warily looked around, hoping to catch anything out of order before it became a problem.<br/><br/>He asked her to try different dresses as he went to check in to his workplace in the next building. Surely, nothing would happen inside a crowded mall.<br/><br/></div>"

Alexei's unease lightened a bit as they stepped out of the store with the dress. Though he was a bit more at ease, he was still on alert, he was tense, and Elena felt it.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc"">""Is something wrong nii-san?""</font>, she asked with innocent curiosity?<br/><br/><font color=""red"">""Huh? Uhh, it's nothing""</font>, he responded. She simply tilted her head and smiled.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc"">""Well, if you say it's nothing, then it's nothing""</font>, she was a bit more cheerful than usual today. It must be the shopping. The two began to walk their way home, though Elena wanted to check the other stores too, since she hadn't been to those places before, and being the loving brother he was, let her. Though as she decided to run ahead a little, he brotherly smile slowly turned to fear as two men popped out the corner and grabbed her swiftly. Before he could run on ahead, he felt a smack on the back of his head... There was a surprised groan that followed, but it was not Alexei's, as he turned and punched the attacker, knocking him off his feet before he ran in hot pursuit of Elena and her kidnappers.<br/><br/>He found himself crashing through into a vacant house, small, cheap, and looked ready to fall apart, it was obviously going to be destroyed and a new house be built there based on the sign in front. He stormed into the next room hearing the footsteps of the kidnappers and their voices.<br/><br/>""What is he a monster?! How are we gonna... What?! Get in?! Are you cra-"",<br/><br/>""There's no time!"", Alexei could hear almost all the exchange, but as he entered the room, the men were gone, and with them, Elena... ""Get in""... He would remember. Standing in front of him was a big mirror. Literally the only thing in the room besides the dust and some dead bugs. He felt a beckoning and a voice as he inched closer to the mirror, first placing his hand upon it, to his disbelief his hand went through, then his arm, and between the strange beckoning call of this mirror, and his desire to save his little sister, he disappeared into the mirror too.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Warakuma Mall - Afterschool<br/>13/6/2015 Saturday</div></div><br/><br/>Rui was panting a little, standing outside the old house, the kidnappers? The cult... This was a rare opportunity. It seems someone was in pursuit too, though he was unsure of what happened, since he no longer heard any noise, so he decided to follow the other boy's (or man? He was huge) tracks, stepping over the destroyed door and stepping into an empty room after the main entrance room. There it was... A big mirror. It was a cheap mirror, but it was big enough to use as a portway into the mirror world... He sent a message to everyone, to meet at the warehouse, today, and sent Kami the location of this house to investigate.<br/><br/>This was a good chance. They had to seize it. This was the best chance they had at catching any of the cultists, and maybe get some information. After sending the messages, he decided to head back towards the Abandoned Warehouse. It didn't matter who was or wasn't ready, they'll go in after the cultists and the boy and his sister with whoever they can. This was also probably a good chance to have Ayano try her Persona out too, if she was available.</div>"

However, she wasn't quite alone - though in the other two members' haste, a knock on the door had been drowned out, leaving her instead to nearly jump in suprise when a voice suddenly called out a greeting from the door to which she'd had her back. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was the only thing she could bring up in her surprise as she quickly turned to face the source of the voice - though with the initial unexpectedness quickly fading, Kotori realised that she recognised the voice at the same time as she recognised the person whom it belonged to.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah, Dragunov-senpai""</font> With a bow, she returned his previous greeting before looking up at the noticeably taller third year student as he put away his phone.

Kotori meanwhile, much as usual, remained seated as she finished her notes for the day; brief though they were considering that school ended somewhat early on a Saturday. Quickly reading her notes over, she gave a satisfied nod before packing her things. As she did so, she thought on what to do with the rest of the day - there wasn't any shopping that needed to be done today nor was there a club meeting.<br/><br/>That last thought brought a small smile to Kotori's lips - though they hadn't said a word about it, there had been some very subtle exchanges between the other two club members. Not exactly noticeable, but if one knew to be on the lookout, it wasn't much of a stretch to know what that was about. When Kotori picked up her bag though, a voice could be heard - and an oddly familiar one, given her previous thoughts. Turning to look, it was indeed Shizuka; the younger girl standing in the classroom's door and peering inside as she asked whether Saji was around. Schoolbag in one hand, Kotori walked over before giving a small bow in greeting: <font color=""green"">""Hello, Otonashi-san.""</font><br/><br/>Looking about the classroom to see if her classmate was still about, Kotori quickly found Masahide's seat before pointing it out to the enquiring girl. Though she was a bit curious about the rare visit, it seemed a bit rude to ask; leaving Kotori to give another bow before heading out of the classroom.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehouse | Saturday, June 13 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>A little out of breath, Kotori arrived at the warehouse following the message from Rui - she'd only just gotten home when he'd urgently called for a meeting. Kotori had said she'd made some plans for the afternoon with some friends from school - not entirely a lie, really - and had headed straight for the warehouse where she'd met the rest of the group last time when Ayano had been kidnapped. She was feeling a little uneasy - the prospect of the kidnappings continuing still was not a very enjoyable one.<br/><br/>Furthermore, there was the rather real chance that they'd have to once again fight those shadow creatures - an equally unpleasant thought, though she hoped she'd be able to at least try to help out. As such, Kotori tried to stymie her nervousness as she waited for the group to arrive and Rui to divulge all the information once they were assembled.</div>"

Even now, a few classmates had cast some suspicious glances and whispers, all directed towards the raven haired male.

Or something like that. It was a hard feeling to place for Sato.<br/><br/>	But, of course, it ""was"" a peaceful Saturday, until Sato received a text from Rui. Rui didn't really casually text to him, so upon seeing it was from him, Sato's mood died instantly. He could already guess what it was going to be, his suspicion confirmed upon reading the summoning to the warehouse. Sato ran back home as fast he could, ignoring the looks from strangers as he bolted through the thin crowd. Groceries could wait.<br/><br/>	It didn't take long before he was standing in the abandoned warehouse, desperately panting for air. He'd been running from the moment he got the text until he got there. Kotori, Rui, and some others were already there. Another meeting meant another kidnapping, but who...? They didn't know the victim yet (at least, Sato didn't), and were basically going into this next dungeon blind. Or had they been blind the last time too? He shook his head, unable to figure it out in his panic.<br/><br/>	Sato made sure he had everything he thought he'd need, double-checking to make sure he had all his arrows. His brow furrowed when he realized he'd forgotten to retrieve the ones from when they were fighting Ayano's shadow. There were still a half-dozen left though. If he fought like last time, he'd mostly be using his Persona anyway, so Sato simply shrugged it off and stood by the others.

The Warehouse, which served as their storage and base, was filled with usable weapons.

As he could see her large form flailing and giving them a hard time, they disappeared into an abandoned house sitting at the edge of the district.<br/><br/>He had been involved in restructuring of the whole place. His employers being one of the contractors assigned the rebuilding process. So he felt nothing about trespassing, plus his protective instincts had arisen.

His hand phased through as if dipped in water. He took a deep breath and went inside.<br/><br/>It was all dark inside, as if he has walked into a dark pit but he could hear distant cries of Elena. He shouted her name but only sobs returned. Angered he started in the direction of the cries, wishing to rip off whichever fool who had dared lay a hand on his sister.</div>"

No surprise there, she did bring up a possibly unpleasant incident for the older male and she was hesitant to do so. Her response to the unconvincing assurance that he was alright was a hesitant nod. If the other didn't wish to delve too deep into it then the underclassman had no choice but to comply. It wasn't polite to be too nosy into other people's business after all. But her concern remained on her featues.<br/><br/>A moment of silence, then something caught Shizuka off guard. The sudden change of tone from Masahide. The poor girl flinched, averting her gaze away as he pointed out the way she looked at him. Was there something wrong with the way she looked at the upperclassman? But it didn't end there, the way he spoke lost its formal manner as the hazel eyes of the younger teen started to moisten from how hateful the other was starting to sound. Her hands and lips shook as Shizuka mumbled in a soft, shaken voice, <font color=""violet"">""...I-I didn't mean to upset you, I-I'm truly sorry... It's... It's just that.. while you say you're <span class=""bb-i"">alive</span>, yo-your face um... sort of te-tells me other wise.""</font> While trying her best to hold back from tearing, the freshman collected her belongings and spoke once more without turning to face Masa. <font color=""violet"">""I-I truly apologize for robbing you of your time...

He wasn't the first one there though, Kazuki was already here. He also got a message from Kami that he was at the vacant house with the mirror now. Shortly afterward, Sato and Kotori arrived, and then Akane in suit. They had just enough for one party, and then soon panting her way in was Ayano. This was getting better, since they could finally see if the suspicions were correct about her Persona.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Megumi isn't here right now though she said she was on her way, and Riku said he's sneaking out of detention, and Tadao said he was still working...

Well, in any case, they had a big enough party to move through.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Right... Well we can't wait, in case the cultists find a way out of the mirror world.

Putting his phone away he turned to the whole group that was here right now.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""We're going to head on in""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I'll stay out here in case anyone else arrives while you're in there, good luck""</font>.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Mirror Warakuma<br/>13/6/2015 Saturday</div></div><br/><br/>Rui, Kotori, Sato, Akane and Ayano stepped through into the mirror world. It was a familiar feeling for all of them but Ayano, although as they stepped in, everyone but Rui and Ayano realized they needed directions now to their destination. They always had Megumi to give the directions, though Ayano simply didn't know all of that whatsoever. Though Rui turned to Ayano.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Ayano, I want you to summon your Persona right now. If me, Kazuki and Kami suspect right, you have the same ability as Megumi, to communicate and observe others from long distances""</font>, he explained.<br/><br/>Ayano looked confused, but the desire to want to try the 'Persona' thing overtook that, since it seemed so cool to her, and so she did. As she summoned her Persona, a blue flame enveloped her with the sound of shattering glass, and soon appearing behind her was a woman robed in gray, with a face that looked like a cylindrical electronic display, the display seemed to change randomly. In front of Ayano however, was a large console, as she looked upon it, familiar functions came to her, as she reached out, an abundance of floating holographic screens appeared in front of her, giving her information of the entire area, maps, the presence of shadows...<br/><br/>Although this wasn't all she found, she moved her hand to where her headphones are, and suddenly she could hear vivid sounds in the distance... <span class=""bb-i"">""nii-san...!.... i-is he gone...?!.... That kid is crazy....!""</span>. Those voices... That must be who they're after. Sounds like they kidnapped someone too, by the sound of it, a very young girl.<br/><br/>Instinctively she reached for the screens in front of her again and immediately knew what to do, and within moments she made a route towards the dungeon she heard the voices from. Almost like natural, she hit the scan function beside the map, and there appeared two blinking strobes. The names for the two were 'Kami-chan &lt;3', and 'Alexei Dragunov'. Upon seeing the special note for Kami, she blushed and gasped in embarrassment for a moment.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Are you okay?""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""Y-y-yeah... Yeah I'm fine... Uhhh, I have a route to the next dungeon. Kami seems to be there too...

I just want answers!'</span> He thought to himself, slowly making his way to the younger female. However, during the short trek, his anger subsided to annoyance laced with pity. Quickly the annoyance faded as well as he softly patted her shoulder, steppin past just enough to take a seat opposite of where her belongings sat shortly before. His traditional moment of silence passed as he sat there, broken by a heavy sigh as he looked up to her. It was clear was something was bothering him, though he attempted to keep his complacent expression.<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">I've been getting that look for days now. Yamato, my mother, the president, and now you. And it pisses me off,</font>"" his voice contained a subtly hint of anger at his last remark, quickly fading as he faced forward, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Since my father died, I've been trying to live up to the family name. Near perfect grades, working myself to the bone, and doing my best to give back to the town. I've been doing this for awhile, and now suddenly everyone is worried. Why?</font>"" At this point he'd lean back against the back of the bench, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">It's not like I'm out partying; getting drunk, high, or doing something stupid. What the hell do they think I'm doing?""</font><br/><br/>	The entire time he spoke, it was obvious it was uncomfortable divulging this information. A recluse by nature, the only people he trusted with his inner-most thoughts were himself and Yamato. But Yamato hadn't spoken to him in sometime now... Not since he struck Masa and left him at the shrine. <span class=""bb-i"">'I'm pathetic,'</span> Masa thought to himself as his eyes fell slightly, <span class=""bb-i"">'Is this how everyone will remember me? Being a man who can't handle himself on his own? Worthless.'</span> With that, his gaze flickered to Shizuka as he awaited her reaction.</div>"

Curious brown eyes stared in awkward silence as the upperclassman paused, then sighed. Having been revealed the reason for his irritation, Shizuka panicked a little, shook her head and attempted to change her expression to a dead pan serious one as he continued. The belongings which were collected were rested atop the bench once more.<br/><br/>The raven haired maiden listened intently as the older teen narrated on about what had been bothering him, giving occasional nods to show that she was being attentive to what was being said. Shizuka waited for him to finish his piece before parting her lips to reply with a soft smile, <font color=""violet"">""I'm well aware of bits and pieces of your achievements, Saji-senpai. I'm sure the others are aware of them as well. There is nothing wrong with what you seem to be doing.""</font><br/><br/>At this point, she flashed something comparable to that of a gentle mother's scolding look as she continued. If Masa didn't appreciate the worried expression everyone seemed to aim towards him, then the freshman figured she'll try a new approach <span class=""bb-s"">with the help of her Shizu-chan acting skills </span>. <font color=""violet"">""But I believe you lack <span class=""bb-i"">concern and appreciation</span> for yourself. Have you set a certain limit to how much your body can work? When was the last time you rewarded yourself to a treat?""</font> Shizuka giggled softly at the silly attempt at a scolding tone and gazed towards the park's scenery. <font color=""violet"">""I can't speak for others but I'm simply just worried that one day you might breakdown, or find yourself being unable to enjoy life.""</font><br/><br/>There was a dramatic pause after her last statement before Shizuka turned to the upperclassman and changed the topic while asking, <font color=""violet"">""Um... There are some shops I can introduce to you which have some delightful treats like cakes or Japanese sweets if you might be interested...?""</font></div>"

Kazuki remained behind to guide any late arrivals and possibly act as backup whilst Rui had just come off the phone to Kaminari who had entered the Mirror World elsewhere. And with that, the five of them entered the other side.<br/><br/>The transition was... strange, even if it wasn't the first time experiencing it for Kotori. She quickly looked around for any sign of trouble - but luckily, their arrival didn't immediately herald any shadow attacks. She wouldn't have been very confident in her abilities to drive them off though - but luckily, the others were here too and had already proven to be quite capable combatants. Rui quickly turned to Ayano and explained his suspicions about her persona's abilities - rather than specialising as a fighter or supporter, he believed that she would be able to guide others from afar.<br/><br/>For a moment, Ayano seemed a little hesitant - understandably, given that such a task was just thrust upon her. However, this quickly turned into eagerness as she took but a moment to summon her persona. The rest of the group watched as her other self formed above her - a humanoid figure which held a display of sorts in front of Ayano. Much like the others before her, Ayano seemed to take to controlling her persona as second nature within moments - though a worried expression came over Kotori's face as the other girl gasped briefly.<br/><br/>At Rui's question though, she reassured everyone she was alright - and that she had both the route to take and the locations of Kaminari and another: Alexei Dragunov. <span class=""bb-i"">'Ah...'</span> Kotori thought, recognising the name - only for it to fully sink in a moment later. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was the first sound she made, blinking at the realisation that she actually knew the person they were looking for. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, y-yes,""</font> she said, a little hesitantly as she noticed several of the others turning to look at her as she spoke. <font color=""green"">""D-Dragunov-senpai is, uhm, a third year at our school,""</font> Kotori vaguely pointed toward the direction of the mirror they had come in from; her eyes behind her glasses having steadily decided to focus on some remarkably interesting part of the floor rather than any of the others' eyes.</div>"

Seeing the look that had enraged him early no longer present, he felt a little more at ease... Then the realization that he had devulged what he had began to set in. With a slight sneer and a shake of his head, he'd nod as he returned to keeping his gaze locked upon her. He expected to be angered or enraged, but in fact, he felt a subtle relief settle upon him. So much so that he even cracked a minor smirk at her attempt to find another expression to replace the latter. Nodding his head absentmindedly in thought, he slowly slipped into his own thoughts. Perhaps this girl was right? Maybe he was being to hard on himself? Maybe his efforts were getting the better of him? Whatever the case, it definitely caused a moment of pause and reflection... If only for that moment at least.<br/><br/>	'<span class=""bb-i"">No. I still have more to give.

Maybe another-</font>"" At this moment, an audible buzz could be heard from the boys pocket. Sighing slightly at the inopportune message, he retrieved his phone and flipped it open. Assuredly, it was going to be a local shop-keep, or possibly his mother asking when he'll be home.<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">Hey.</span><br/><br/>	Masa sat there slightly stunned. After days of nothing but silence and the cold shoulder, Yamato had finally gotten back to his cousin. Unsure of what to do, Masa flipped the phone closed as he continued to stare forward into the scenery of the park. His expression bore confusion thinly veiled confusion, and even more obvious joy. Glancing back to Shizuka, he'd raise from the bench, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Sure. Why the hell not?</font>""</div>"

Unlike that time, though, she isn't a lone and she got more fire power this time around.

Don't think we can keep on waiting like this.""</span></font> Akane said to no one in particular as she looked on with a bored expression. Although she can't pin point the exact moment, maybe it was during her persona 'episode', she noticed how much she has changed from the persona she was before. Was 'that' person a fake? Only there to keep the real one locked away? No, 'she' is still there, mixed in with the new, but besides the point, Akane feels so much freer now-a-days. Where she didn't have to, no, force herself, to act that way.<br/><br/>After finally deciding to head off, they headed off into the mirror. It was a bit strange entering the mirror without Megumi who was always the one directing them but she wasn't here yet so it couldn't be helped. As they were going in, Kazuki decided to stay behind in-case the others show up. Entering the mirror world this time was just her, Kotori, Ayano, Rui and Sato. As they got there, Rui started talking to Ayano, mentioning that she and Megumi <span class=""bb-i"">might</span> have the same ability as a navigator. Which would probably explain them going in and not waiting for Megumi. <span class=""bb-i"">Hmm....But what if she doesn't?</span> she thought as she looked on at a confused Ayano.<br/><br/>Though, that thought was soon put to rest as she summoned her persona. She seemed to have gotten the handle on her persona quite fast, which was quite impressive given the fact this is her first time summoning it. While it was worrying at first, things calmed down and she started going to work, as if she already knew what she was doing. After a few moments, it seemed like she managed to get something. As Ayano let everyone know, Akane just froze. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Alexei....?

The sound of shattering glass filled her ears as the familiar blue flame circled around her, almost as if it was protecting her, she didn't know if it was successful or not, but going by the large computer console appearing in front of her, it would seem as though they have been fruitful. She looked at the console with a stern look in her face as she analyzed it from left to right trying to grasp the functions of her new-found abilities, it took a while but she managed to get the gist of all the information that was being displayed on her holograms and she could feel the presence of shadows in the area as well. She grabbed a pair of familiar-looking headphones and put them on, it all felt slightly nostalgic to her but her reprieve was cut short when the voice of a young girl came through the other line. With a few taps, she had made a path towards where the voice was coming from, as she opened up the map she was startled to see that there were apparently two persons toward the location, and one of them just so happens to be <span class=""bb-i"">'Kami-chan &lt;3'</span>, the other was <span class=""bb-i"">'Alexei Dragunov'</span>, the name rung a bell but she decided to let it pass and tried her best to ignore why Kami's name was addressed that way in her console, but she couldn't help but blush and gasp.<br/><br/>Thankfully however, Kotori and Akane decided to shed some light on their plight and give her some information on Alexei, third year? The brunette couldn't help but feel that from somewhere she must have at least seen the man in question at least in the hallways or something. Akane gave her some more information and when she mentioned the blurb about him being the <span class=""bb-i"">'big fella'</span> it all started making sense to her, he was the one who led her into the Anime and Manga Club Room! To think that a wall of muscle like him being captured in here just made it apparent that the one who is conducting these kidnappings certainly don't pick any specifics. Nodding to herself, she began typing away at the console, trying to pinpoint his exact location and after a few seconds she proclaimed,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Done!""</font></span></span><br/><br/>Giving the group directions on where to go, but she was still dumbfounded as to why Kami was here...</div>"

He tuned out the woman's voice as he glared at the congregation of shadows by the door, seemingly beckoning him, but always leaving him behind. His mouth twisted as the doors opened and the woman droned on, as the same sequence played itself out again and again, the only difference being the number of silhouettes admitted to the ""Velvet Room"" beyond. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Why me? Why this dream? If this is supposed to be telling me about some destiny of mine, why won't you elaborate any further? I want to help.

His fists clenched.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Give me an answer! A sign, a hint! JUST FUCKING TELL ME SOMETHING--</span></font><br/><br/>The last silhouette stopped, turning toward him. He quirked an eyebrow as the silhouette continued to look at him(? He couldn't really tell without seeing its eyes), until something changed. Barely perceptible, but for a moment, the edges of the shade sharpened, became more distinct. Instead of a hazy representation of an anonymous someone, it became more solid. More recognizable. Mako's eyebrows shot up. He knew them. He knew that stance.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">...Sato?</span></font><br/><br/>And then the dream collapsed into the sound of his alarm.<br/><br/>==~==<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Mako Moritomi//Star Drop Cafe</div><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Saturday, June 13, 2015</div><br/><br/>It just made sense, if he was being perfectly honest.<br/><br/>Mako tapped the pencil against his head, looking the notes he'd written down. It wasn't much, considering he didn't have much information- everything he did have filled only one page, and barely, at that. Still, it was a start. <br/><br/>Mako pondered everything he'd found out so far. As far as he knew, Sato had quit... well, everything save school, really. He didn't know much about his extracirriculars, to be honest, but Sato hadn't shown up to drama club since his kidnapping, and the only other club of his he knew about- archery- had told him he was similarly AWOL. Curious.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Huh. I didn't know he did archery. That's... pretty cool, actually. Okay, focus, Mako.</span></font><br/><br/>Moreover, there was that conversation they'd had during their <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-s"">do not call it a date, Moritomi, I swear to every god there is</span></font> lunch. He'd seemed... passionate about this. What was it he'd said?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""...I'm confident that next time, if someone gets kidnapped, they'll come back just like I did.""</span><br/><br/>Why did he seem so sure about that? Like he absolutely knew- not hoped, <span class=""bb-i"">knew</span>- that the next victims would be safe. Which could mean one of two things. Either he was in on the whole kidnapping conspiracy- unlikely, since he was one of the victims, but still- or he knew something about the people who were doing the saving lately. <br/><br/>And that led to the whole linchpin for his argument- the dream. He was fairly convinced now that whatever destiny the woman kept referring to had something to do with these kidnappers, and, more explicitly, the ones who were saving the victims. Sato, and whoever the other silhouettes represented. And him too, he guessed, since he was the one who kept having the dream. Maybe that's why he never got a clear answer from any of it- maybe this was a test, or something, to see if he was worthy of getting involved.<br/><br/>...Which all sounded fucking retarded, now that he was putting it in plain sentences, but it was all he had. It really wasn't much to go on, having nothing but hazy dreams, and a sneaking suspicion that one of those silhouettes absolutely looked like someone he'd only spent, like, an hour in total with. But he was still pretty certain, and he'd never been one for rational thinking, anyway.

While she might've made a fool of herself, seeing Masahide out of his glum expression was relieving. But soon after a pause from any conversing, that same expression returned to his features. <span class=""bb-i"">It isn't easy to change one's mind after all</span>, the dark haired maiden thought to herself.<br/><br/>Before Shizuka could enumerate any more suggestions to do to treat one's self, the upperclassman suddenly changed his mind after glancing at the message he had just received on his phone. Tilting her head to the side in curiosity as to what its contents were, or from who the sender was, Shizuka kept her curious questions to herself. Since he had revealed some truly personal information, the underclassman believed prying too much wouldn't be polite. Either way, it was settled that the two were to depart on their way to the girl's favorite shops.<br/><br/>As Shizuka rose to her feet with her school bag in hand, she spoke, <font color=""violet"">""Splendid! I have quite a number of places to show, all of which are places my friends and I visit.""</font> Her soft voice had a tone of excitement about it, being able to share the treats she and her friends found around town. Before walking ahead, the teen abruptly turned on her heel to face back towards Masa. <font color=""violet"">""...I appreciate the fact that you've shared something perhaps, uncomfortable to talk about, Saji-senpai. But I do feel apologetic for seeming to pressure you to do so.""</font> With a slight smile of guilt, Shizuka bowed as an apology before continuing on their way towards the shops.<br/><br/>-----<br/><br/>Due to the fact that it was a weekend and time after most classes are out, Shizuka predicted that the mall would be flooded with people. As such, she decided to lead them towards the shopping district instead. There were a couple of shops she would visit here and there but the first one she stopped over for was a cake and pastries shop. <font color=""violet"">""This shop is one of my personal favorite! While they offer a variety of cakes, they do not fail on making each one equally satisfying and appetizing.""</font><br/><br/>Her hazel eyes sparkled as she explained to the older student and continued while they were entering the establishment, <font color=""violet"">""It's not just a shop but a small cafe as well! Ideal if the customers prefer to consume the pastry with a naturally brewed cup of coffee.""</font> Sparkling eyes glanced about the cakes being displayed in the glass case, hands ready to take her wallet out anytime.</div>"

As they continued their venture, Masa took a moment to remove his phone, opening it to the same message he had left not even a few moments before.<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">Hey. Been busy?</span>, he briskly typed in, pausing a moment before sending it on it's way. All the while, his face bore an smile -an odd occurance for the stoic faced youth- but it seemed not to bother him in the slightest. Instead, he actually made an effort to converse with the raven haired girl as they continued. Once at their destination, Masa made it a point to gaze about, taking in the venue's appearance before entering shortly behind her. Sure enough, you could smell the coffee the moment you stepped through the door, which was all that Masa needed. Secretly, coffee had been an addiction of his for some time now. What else was going to keep you alive after a full day of school and working on the side?<br/><br/>	As he noticed Shizuka reaching for her wallet, Masa reached a hand out and shook his head, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Whatever you want, it's on me. I owe you for introducing me to this place.</font>"" With that, he walked up to the counter and briefly looked over the venue's offerings. It didn't take him long to come to his decision, ordering a double-shot expresso as he motioned back to Shizuka, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Plus whatever she'll have.</font>"" It was then Masa turned his gaze to Shizuka, a small grin with an expectant look shot in her direction.</div>"

The gothic architecture against the bright yet restrained colours, like that of a little girl's dreams were fitting for the banner up top, 'Crypt of Hopes and Dreams'. Now that he thought about it, it looked almost like a tomb. Standing in front of it was Kami, when he noticed the party, he turned,<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""I may have watched something important...

Kami said this was a newly formed dungeon, so perhaps it was smaller, or had weaker shadows. Still, they came upon a clearing, and standing within it was Alexei. He was staring down someone who looked just like him, by experience, that was his shadow... But this wasn't his dungeon, or was it...?

The whole view around him seemed to warp into something else, like a bad sci fi movie. What was stranger though, was the form the whole surroundings around him seem to be taking. It slowly started resembling like a crypt as he continued his chase for the attackers.<br/><br/>Eerily resembling the one back in Tokyo where his father rests. Alexei felt a knot forming in his stomach as inexplicable events were happening. It was as if he was inside his own mind or his sister's as both of them quiet similar memories of the place. But the whole scenario was a bit weird, the crypts weren't clean and well organised and a strange black grime stuck at most of the epitaphs. There also seem to be minor rodents running around in darkness as he moved deeper, no one approached him with malice like the kidnappers but they always remained on the fringe of his peripheral vision.<br/><br/>Then, in a distance he saw a figure or rather a Doppelganger. He looked starkingly like Alexei or rather he was Alexei. Dressed in a full sleeved shirt and warm trousers he stood near a grave that resembled the one of his father as he had a strange expression on his face. Alexei stopped before him and questioned <font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""Who are you?""</span></font><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff79a"">""Are you always so obvious?""</font></span> he quipped back, his tone much sharper and high pitched.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Quit joking around, who are you?""</font></span> he continued.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">""Man! you really are a musclehead aren't you? I am you, of course?""</font></span> the figure said with a shrug.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""What Nonsense, how can this be? What is this place.""</font></span> he inquired further, taking no offense of the way the figure talked.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">""This is your reality and I am the real you. You faker.""</font></span> The figure seemed to get angry all of a sudden. All Alexei could do was get taken aback as the figure began his tirade.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">""Always burdened with taking care of that entitled slut, strutting around carefree while I work myself to the bone. What right to they have to entitlement when I who is worthy get nothing and that weakling who has been nothing but a constant strain on finances. Why doesn't she kill herself already if she can't come over the loss of this good for nothing.""</font></span> he said kicking the stone of the grave.<br/><br/>Alexei just flipped a switch as he went for a tackle. Taking him down, the figure did nothing but give a chilling laugh.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">""Oh so Mr.Good is scared that his true feelings have come to light.""</font></span> he said as he gave him a snide grin. Alexei just punched his face in reply.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""I have never felt that way, I am just doing my duty.""</font></span> he said, a little winded from all that chase.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">""Is that so? Still paying the model son and brother. Quit the act, will you? you can't fool me. I am the real you, that suppressed desire that you have, to get rid of your responsibilities and finally be able to relax and live a life you desire. This is all rather convenient, isn't it. With your sister out of the way, your life can be simpler. Now, only if the old hag can bite the bullet.""</font></span> he mocked.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Watch. Your. Mouth. Asshole!""</font></span> Alexei growled as he rained punches, his rage certainly getting the better of him, a bit. But it seemed that the other Alexei was perhaps tougher than the real one as he did nothing but laugh eerily while being punched.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7976a""><span class=""bb-b"">""You are not me!!!""</span></font> Alexei shouted for perhaps only the second time in his life, he couldn't remember the first time. Just then it seemed that gravity had been reversed as he was thrown flying from his position above his doppelganger. It's shaped begin to change as some others came into view, he wondered if they were more accomplices,but he'll deal with them later after he was done with this schmuck. Alexei landed on a crypt a bit heavily. The figure before him continued its unsettling laughter as it turned into something grotesque. He was a bit relieved to know that that wasn't truly his self as he held his head to shake out the shock of the landing.</div>"

The shadow of Alexei took on a <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/IOzIeqs.png"" rel=""nofollow"">monolithic visage</a>, covered in blood. Though as much as Alexei might believe this isn't him, as the shadow began to take form and do it's thing, he began to doubt that optimistic belief. The figure below the sword stuck in the shadow's belly began to cry out in Alexei's little sister's voice for help.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""yellow"">""Shut up shut up shut up!

She was a little surprised herself to learn that he was part of the Manga Club - something which, apparently, he had in common with not only Akanae but also Rui. Meanwhile, Ayano hadn't been idle and just moments later announced that she'd managed to plot a route for the group to find Alexei. Rui wasted no time in ordering the pursuit and they set off - even if Kotori still had a sinking feeling about this cult, considering that they had somehow managed to subdue someone of his size and stature.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Crypt of Hopes and Dreams | After School</span><br/><br/>The sight of the dungeon was... odd. Not that the previous one had been any better in that regard - but even while Kotori hadn't known what to expect, it likely wasn't this. It was a building of sorts, but with some rathe strange architecture which looked more at home in some medieval story of knights and dragons - yet at the same time, the colours clashed more than a bit with that image. However, before the dungeon - helpfully named by a banner as the 'Crypt of Hopes and Dreams', for whatever that might mean - could come under closer scrutiny, the group's attention was drawn to the figure standing outside: Kaminari.<br/><br/>After explaining what he'd seen - including the dungeon forming from thin air in front of him - he suggested that he stay behind with Ayano to guide any belated arrivals and serve as backup. Due to their already reduced numbers, this meant that the group was already decided - Ayano would be their guide, Rui would lead and Akane, Sato and Kotori would be following him. Kotori took a deep breath before nodding to acknowledge the decision - even after already having braved a dungeon previously, it wasn't exactly a prospect she was looking forward to repeating. Even less so now that she was standing right in front of the, at closer look, somewhat foreboding dungeon. Still, she was here to help anothe kidnapping victim - and the others were heading inside, leaving little time for any doubts as she followed them in.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Crypt of Hopes and Dreams: Floor 1 | After School</span><br/><br/>Thankfully, the dungeon turned out to not pose much in the way of danger - the few shadows that did cross the group's path were quickly annihilated with little to no damage incurred in return; something Kotori was rather thankful for. This in turn meant that the group quickly progressed through the dungeon floor - but despite the only very light resistance, Kotori couldn't help but feel a little uneasy about the dungeon itself. The tombs and candles, even if they seemed almost comically toy-like, still gave off an unnerving vibe to her - and she half-expected shadows to suddenly pop up from unexpected angles to scare them, though that never came to pass before they arrived at a sort of clearing - upon which stood a somewhat familiar figure. Or rather, two - Alexei and, if the previous dungeon and her own experience was anything to go by, his shadow.<br/><br/>The two were already engaged in some sort of fist fight and shouting match - though most of the punching and shouting came from only one side whilst the other seemed far more calm. Just as they managed to get close enough to clearly see the two and easily follow the conversation, the group realised that they were too late as Alexei uttered the fateful words of the shadow not being him. <font color=""green"">""Ah!""</font> came from Kotori as one Alexei - the real one - was thrown heavily into one of the tombs. The other one, meanwhile, transformed before their eyes - turning into a strange creature. One girl laying upon the ground. The shadow itself, retaining much of its apperance. And the creature upon which it stood - which caused Kotori's eyes to briefly go wide behind her glasses at the sight.<br/><br/>An enormous masked humanoid creature, encased in some sort of armour, was hunched over the girl. However, this armour was pierced by dozens of huge bloodied blades - in fact, the whole thing was covered in bloody splatters. And to make matters worse, the girl began to cry out - in a voice which Kotori again recognised as being that of Alexei's sister, Elena. However, this sound was cut short by the shadow's voice - no longer calm, it shouted down at the girl before turning to address the group with its words and making clear its intent to make them disappear.<br/><br/>It didn't give more than that for a warning before immediately wrenching some of the bloody blades out of the creature's back - and hurling them at the group. The attack happened so quickly, Kotori barely had any time to react - but thankfully, the others had been more ready for such a thing and already sprung into action. Rui and Sato quickly dashed off to the sides to avoid the attack whilst Akane, using Setana, put herself between Kotori and the shadow; blocking its barrage with ease. <font color=""green"">""S-sorry,""</font> Kotori quickly mumbled out of guilt for having forced the othe girl to have to throw herself in the way of an attack because she hadn't been quick enough herself.<br/><br/>Rui, meanwhile, had already begun putting his experience to use and noticed that attacking from the sides would be their best bet as turning seemed to be a little difficult for this shadow. <font color=""green"">""Right,""</font> Kotori said, nodding to affirm the command, as she already raised one hand. In her palm floated an ethereal blue card - which was shattered with a single motion and a word: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-hime.""</font> Kotori's persona emerged, allowing her to fight with its assistance rathe than having to rely on just her physical abilities. The presence of Kikuri-hime once more had an almost calming effect on her - taking a deep breath, she immediately began to head off to try and follow Rui's order of flanking the shadow; keeping a close eye on it to try and avoid any subsequent attacks instead of having to burden the others whilst at the same time keeping Kikuri-hime ready to heal any sustained injuries at a moment's notice.</div>"

After gazing on in wonder, that wonder was destroyed as soon as she began hearing 'that thing' speak. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""What a whiny emo bitch you are, seriously...""</span></font> she said with obvious irritation at the shadow. Though, it would only prove to agitate the thing further. <br/><br/>Which didn't take long as it grabbed a sword out of the monolithic body, grasping it in-between it's fingers and threw it at the party.

Though Rui was observing this, he used this chance to get behind the shadow and attack with a Mudo skill, a wave of black energy gathered in Askr's hand and was physically thrown at the shadow. It seemed to do something at least, but there was no significant damage. The shadow merely turned around, and smiled right at Rui...<br/><br/>Immediately he jumped far back, and his instinct was right on the mark, Akane's Setanta was suddenly repelled by an array of swords, damaging Akane a little, with the assault off, the shadow immediately looked to a target to attack, and spotted Sato lagging behind in flanking it, his advance was stopped by a hail of swords, a few of which striking him, flinging him back.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""This is a pain...

Kotori meanwhile was about to call upon Kikuri-hime to aid in the attack when things started going awry. Rui sprang back when the shadow suddenly launched a counter-attack at him whilst a veritable wall of swords repelled Akane's Kill Rush. Sato meanwhile had not managed to get quite into position and got struck in the side by a number of swords being tossed his way; a rather painful sight that caused Kotori to give a worried wince as he was thrown off his feet.

It was a boring day and all Noboru had left to do was sit and wait for Aiko to get done with his job so that they could hang out the rest of the day. Noboru figured it'd be a little bit longer so he decided to do what any normal person would do and run a few laps, possibly a mile or two. He paced himself, starting his run up quite well. He took off in a flash, bounding down the street to wherever his feet took him.<br/><br/>Noboru was making good time. He felt fast and free, with nothing in his way or holding him back. His head was facing down the entire time, so he decided to raise it just a little bit to get a fresh breeze in his face. It felt slow-mo.

A view of the sky came first, followed by the wind being knocked out of him as he smacked into the hard cement. He was probably quite visible to Chiaki by now. He hustled to his feet, charging the way back from where he came. There was only one way to make a smooth, or rather what could be counted for smooth after that fuck up, escape.

Sato followed suit, going through the tall mirror. Immediately after entering, he could already feel the familiar pressure of the mirror world. It dug into him, and he wasn't sure if it was a physical or mental heaviness.<br/><br/>	Without Megumi with them, they had to rely on Ayano to navigate them. Sato was skeptical about having someone so new to it take the reigns so soon, but part of being a team was having faith in each other. She summoned her persona, the ethereal flames not failing to impress Sato. More importantly, Ayano located both Kami and another as well. To his surprise, she listed Alexai as being the other presence. Could he be the victim? Of all people, Sato didn't expect him to be kidnapped. ""He's in my class,"" Sato concurred, nodding to what Kotori and Akane said.<br/><br/>	It only took Ayano an impressive few seconds to get directions to Alexai's dungeon. As the group made their way there, Sato considered Ayano's innate talent as a navigator. Megumi seemed nowhere near Ayano's level of ability. Did Megumi have something to make up for that relative weakness, or was she just inherently worse? Sato was distracted from his train of thought when they approached their destination. Gothic architecture rose above dull neon colors, bright enough to be obnoxious yet restrained in nature. A banner was strung up, with the name ""Crypt of Hopes and Dreams"" on it. If this dungeon was like anyone else's, there was some kind of meaning to it all. Sato tried to think back on any kind of hints as to what it meant, but he came up blank. He'd only met the dude once or twice, and even then he seemed to have the emotion of a watermelon. <span class=""bb-s"">Biceps the size of watermelons as well.</span><br/><br/>	They caught up with Kami, who told the group what he'd seen before they got there. Sato was once again chosen to enter the dungeon out of the limited party they had. Sato took a deep breath, inhaling the weirdly lacking scent of the mirror world.<br/><br/>	Entering the first floor, Sato quickly found out the name was rather literal. Tombs filled the interior, each one holding sets of items. Candles lit the crypt, and it was all pretty eerie. Walking down the halls, they soon came up to a clearing. Expecting some random shadows ambushing them, Sato was surprised to see Alexai standing before someone who looked just like him... His shadow, no doubt. Kami had said the dungeon had only just formed, so maybe that was why it was such a short trek. They only watched as the two Alexais begun their back and forth, the shadow bringing out hurtful exaggerations and demons better left secret. Even with barely knowing the guy, the shadow's words stung Sato. Cringing from the rage the tall man had, Sato and the group stayed silent as Alexai uttered that sentence.<br/><br/>	Sato took a step back as the shadow transmogrified into a bloody monolith with blades sticking out of it, lashing out with one final threat. A masculine figure stood on top of it, a sword through the monolith's midsection pointing at a feminine figure. It didn't take a genius to get the symbolism. Sato was barely prepared when the shadow threw blades from its back at the party. He and Rui split to the side to avoid the attack, while Akane shielded herself and Kotori with her persona. <font color=""slategray"">""It seems to have trouble turning, try and get onto the flanks,""</font> Rui ordered. Sato followed suit, and as he dashed to the side he watched as Akane tried to retaliate, the attack almost seeming to work. It was only after a few moments did a molten shade of red reveal that she was merely striking some kind of shield. A dome around the shadow. Rui attacked with a mudo from the back, turning around to face Rui. He avoided the attack instinctively, repelling Akane from the side as well.<br/><br/>	Sato got caught up in watching the others that he neglected to watch himself. He'd slowed down unconsciously, and was too far from the shadow's side to be able to avoid any attacks. The boy made a mad dash to get away from it, but a rain of blades halted him. He skidded right to a stop just before the bulk of the shot, but he still felt several of the swords ripping through his flesh, knocking him away. The wall caught Sato, slamming to the ground. The pain was worse than anything he'd felt before, an testament to his sheltered upbringing. Looking up, Sato looked through his disheveled bangs to see a rush of steam coming out of it's back. That had to mean it was cooling down. What was the trick? Did they have to overheat it somehow?<br/><br/>	A warm light suddenly enveloped Sato, a majority of his wounds disappearing and the pain subsiding. He looked over to Kotori to see her persona casting a healing spell over the party. His energy restored, Sato leaped back to his feet, his now partially ripped clothes a reminder to stay cautious. Everyone remained cautious, hesitant to try to attack lest it counter-attack like it just had. Akane had the right idea, as she summoned her persona to cast a defensive spell on herself. <br/><br/>	He could do one better than that. Sato summoned his persona, Chronos appeared before him. ""Marakukaja!"" With a flashy swing of the scythe, shields of light appeared around the whole party. It wouldn't stop against anything strong, but it would definitely help. Sato dismissed his persona, making sure he kept a low-profile at the shadow's flank. He braced himself to make any kind of attack or movement. If any of them figured out some kind of opening, Sato had to be ready to capitalize on it.</div>"

It had that whole haunted and dark vibe that also seemed to resonate an artsy kind of feeling inside of her, but it wasn't a good one. The bright colors definitely looked out-of-place for the whole area, the whole clashing of it all almost made her eyes bleed. Kami was nearby and gave Rui an assessment of the area, apparently this is where he was, which made Ayano's suspicions of him in the map fade away. Although she was doubtful, she was glad at the same time that Kami decided to stay with her and with that, the party went in.<br/><br/>As Rui, Akane, Kotori and Sato trudged forward into the dungeon, the feeling of watching it all in front of her very eyes in a screen like a livestream of some sort gave her a feeling of surrealism. Virtual reality was one thing, but this is a whole new level entirely...The interior was creepy to say the least, it Ayano feel unnerved as she never really liked tombs and crypts. Who would? Beyond the distance, she and the party saw Alexei, and it seemed as though they were just in time to see him confront his other self. Small flashes of the same experienced rushed back inside Ayano's mind but she shook it off, trying to focus on the mission at hand...The doppelganger began to speak, spewing the brutal and honest truth about Alexei...She knew that trying to stop him from saying those words would only be in vain and as the shadow began to reveal its true form, a grim expression spread throughout the girl's face.<br/><br/>The battle raged on, Ayano quickly started to scan the shadow for any sort of weakness and trying to sense a pattern with it. You never really know with these battles. She typed in a few buttons but it would seem that scanning would take a while, she looked at one of her screens, trying to observe the enemy as it deflected Akane's and Sato's personas, she squinted a little but she swore she could see puffs of smoke emerging from behind the thing. It was slumping a little too...That shield. She mulled over it for a few minutes and as if on cue, her scan was complete. As she looked it over, she began to contact Rui,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Quick!

She was, however, at least a little relieved to see that both Sato and Akane seemed to have recovered from the respective hits they'd taken; particularly after the former had been thrown to the ground by strike. The others, meanwhile, seemed similarly wary of the shadow after its initial attacks and sword barriers had prevented any real damage being done to it. Instead, they'd opted to go for a defensive approach as Akane used Setanta to summon a shield of her own. Taking inspiration, Sato then too used the same spell - but this time being cast upon the whole group, enveloping them all in a faintly glowing shells. Whilst they didn't feel impervious, it did seem like they'd take the worst of any attack and at least make strikes easier to take.<br/><br/>Meanwhile though, Ayano hadn't been idle either - instead, she'd been scanning the shadow and finally managed to get a read on it. Relaying anything she'd garnered to Rui, he was quick to order an attack - it seemed as though the steam really was due to it using up too much energy to shield itself, needing a brief pause to recharge. Looking between the others as they got ready to attack, Kotori couldn't see anyone in further need of healing; leaving her to instead face the large shadow. Taking a deep breath, she once again raised a hand with a low <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-hime""</font> - before clenching said hand as she called her first attack on the shadow: <font color=""green"">""Zio.""</font> A bolt of lightning crashed into the creature; further adding to the damage it was taking from the others - but rather than get too hopeful, Kotori couldn't shake the worry that it wouldn't go down quite that easily; keeping her distance and trying to stay on the shadow's sides as Rui had ordered.</div>"

All of her screens began to focus on the giant shadow, getting shots of every nook and cranny of the thing to make sure she doesn't overlook anything important, she looked at it from every angle and the arms were of very notice. Typing a few keys, she initiated a detailed scan of the shadow which thankfully wouldn't take a whole while, and Rui's party was managing to hold up for the meantime. As she pressed here and there, two of her screens-the left and the right-displayed the information regarding arms and its torso. Quickly, she contacted Rui, hoping that they're still holding up.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Okay get this; It's arms are the source of the shield BUT it doesn't stop the repelling factor.

Keeping up the shield must've been taking a lot of energy, as it was essentially overheating from the exertion. They had to capitalize on the moment before it could regain its energy. <br/><br/>	Planting his feet onto the ground, Sato summoned his persona. In a flash of white light, Chronos used Hamaon on the shadow, hundreds of cards erupting around Alexai's shadow. The strength of everyone's attacks together caused the shadow to wail in pain. Rui asked Ayano to scan the arms, and upon hearing that, Sato looked at the shadow's now damaged limbs. Could destroying them be the key to winning this fight? Were they the source if its shield?<br/><br/>	It only took a few minutes before Ayano was back to them with data on the arms. They were indeed the source of the shield, but apparently ridding the shadow of them wasn't going to help with the whole repelling thing. Nonetheless, she said the arms were a priority. Sato took his bow off from his back and nocked an arrow. He thought about doing the same trick he'd tried with Ayano's shadow: the Garu-propelled arrow. If he hit a crack on the golem's arms, it would act like a chisel, wouldn't it? He'd never thought about it before. Regardless, Sato had his persona ready for attack in case he decided against it or it failed. He glanced over to the others, watching a flurry of other attacks be launched. Hesistent to try his idea, Sato ordered Chronos to use Single Shot on the arm closest to him.<br/><br/>	The fight seemed to be going in their favor.</div>"

Look, we're coming down next week. You actually gonna talk to me this time? Or do I need to loosen your thick skull again?</span>. All Masa could do was shake his head with the smile re-emerging, tucking his phone away as the order was delivered. With a subtle bow of his head, he'd take the items after paying, turning back to where Shizuka once was to find her missing. Though it didn't take long, the raven-colored hair gave her away almost instantly as he took a seat on the opposite side of the table, sitting before her as he slid over her cake. As he settled down, his gaze rose to her, taking note of her reddening hue as he rose a brow once more.<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#0072bc"">If you say so,</font>"" Bowing his head slightly in response as he indicated the platter before her, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Enjoy.</font>"" With that, he took his cup and sipped it's contents. Sure enough, the heated liquid burned slightly upon his tongue, but that feeling in itself was soothing as the taste settled in. With a contented sigh, he'd lean back in his chair and set his cup upon the table. For a moment, he'd glance out the window onto the streets, but his attention slowly drew back to Shizuka. ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Thanks once again,</font>"" Masa stated, drawing up his cup, ""<font color=""#0072bc"">Do you make it a habit of consoling the downtrodden?</font>"" Masa smirked obviously at this remark, his intention to tease the girl not veiled at all.</div>"

As he expected, the bladed shield was about to come up, and the female figure began to wail in pain to signify it. He immediately backed away, but at the same time called Askr from above. With the shield gone, the party could go wild on it.<br/><br/>With an aerial Zan'ei followed by a Garula broke apart the bladed shield, exposing the shadow.

The others backed out, making it seem like his job to do this closure.<br/><br/>Alexei got up a bit gingerly, still a bit shaken from the fall. He was in a mental mess, a rather rare occurrence.

Busying himself with work and avoid giving his presence for them to heal them. He had meant well but had gone about it all the wrong way.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Yeah""</font></span> he said in his low baritone. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""I guess letting your hair down sometimes won't hurt.""</font></span> he admitted.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""No one asked me for this role, I took it up myself.

One of the theories was that these cultists were the ones who created the shadows when people were put into the mirror world... But with it naturally occurring, as Alexei had simply pursued... That wasn't the case, so what was the cult really after then? If shadows and Personas were something they were not aware of?</div>"

Whilst keeping an eye out for any would-be retaliation, Kotori summoned another Zio down upon a slowly widening gap on one of the shadow's large arms. Though she doubted her contribution was very significant when compared to the other, far more offensively capable members of the group, it was still enough to collectively break the shield generator within. Rushing against time as the shield was about to go up any time now, they managed to repeat the process with the second arm - just in time, as the shield of swords returned just moments later.<br/><br/>However, without anything to sustain it, Rui could quickly shatter this defence; allowing the attack to continue. Kotori still worried about an unexpected desperation attack; ready at any time to quickly cast healing spells as necessary - but ultimately saw yet more use of Kikuri-hime's ability to call down lightning attacks. Under the weight of the entire group's onslaught, the shadow could no longer hold up and came crashing down as Rui's Askr performed a decisive final attack. With an agonising cry, shadows once again enveloped the creature - before dissipating and revealing the more familiar form of Alexei.<br/><br/>Kotori breathed a sigh of relief at the sight - she'd feared the fight might drag on as long as the last, leaving her completely out of breath. Instead, however, she merely noticed how her breathing was a bit quicker after the exertion, but nowhere near the exhaustion she'd felt previously. Just as she wondered if this fight's apparent quickness had something to do with how recently the dungeon had formed, however, Alexei - the real one - approached the shadow. And much like with Ayano, Kotori felt a little awkward standing there and listening to him talk - even if the same had happened to her not all that long ago.<br/><br/>Still, she couldn't quite help but worry what might happed if Alexei didn't accept his other self - but luckily, that did not come to pass. Instead, he agreed that he did not have to sacrifice himself for his familiy - something Kotori, hearing him talk, was sure they wouldn't want - but instead would do what he could for them. Not because he had to, not because it was his duty - but because he wanted to; without losing anything about himself in the process. A small smile came to Kotori's lips at the outcome, even as the other Alexei began to once again change form - but this time not into a monstrous shadow, but rather a fiery torch-bearing Persona.<br/><br/>However, the smile quickly vanished when Alexei then turned to face the group - and asked them for their help in rescuing his sister. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Kotori went in surprise, blinking rather quickly. <font color=""green"">""Dra... uhm, E-Elena-san is here too?""</font> she asked, evidently not having expected that - but she didn't even have to look over to Rui for him to already agree to aid in the rescue; Kotori quickly nodding in agreement. Worry began to take hold once more - not only for Elena but also Alexei as he most likely would be feeling the same wave of exhaustion that Kotori remembered coming over her when she'd first met Kikuri-hime.<br/><br/>However, she wasn't alone in her surprise when Alexei didn't seem to have any intention of just collapsing like she'd done - instead, he remained on his feet and seemed quite determined to get underway to find and rescue his sister. Taking a deep breath - the brief exchange of words having at least served as a small break - Kotori stepped forward, ready to continue onwards. Luckily, Ayano was once more quick to scan the surroundings and informed them that Elena was not far off - though she couldn't quite shake off her ever-present worries, Kotori still remained hopeful that they might be able to finish things off quickly; even more so with the rather unexpected assistance of Alexei and his newly-gained Persona - whilst any thoughts about the rather strange situation they found themselves in and how it reflected on the cult's kidnappings took a backseat for the moment, seeing as there were far more pressing concerns at hand.</div>"

The final room was similar, tacky, yet depressingly coloured and designed, the brightness seen in the beginning of the dungeon, gone.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""S-s-stay back! Stay back!

Rui and Kami returned shortly after, though Alexei remained at the hospital. They got word that he collapsed as soon as he delivered Elena to the hospital. It was likely out of exhaustion. That said... They returned to speak about their findings of all this, and it only raised more questions. These cultists, were definitely blissfully unaware of what the mirror world really was, thinking the mirrors were the way to a 'new world', certainly believable, but with their reactions... They felt it was a paradise, but were betrayed... There may be more to it than that though, or maybe it was more complex.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Then... What could they be after?

The long table before him was a dark brilliant brown with lacquer, placed upon it was blue decorations and silverware. In front of him engraved in front of his seat was ""The Hanged Man"". It seemed ominous to him, but it was not something he pondered on for long. Though out of the corner of sight he noticed he was in different clothes, a fine suit of navy with a purple-blue tie, as well as a lapel pin indicating his arcana's number. Beneath the suit jacket was a high collar waistcoat as well, matching colour. Then he would remember the voice that lulled him awake here. He turned down to where he heard the voice... An old man, with a long nose, and beside him stood a laid of fair hair, straight and down to her waist in what would vaguely look like a waitress' uniform, but also was designed as a suit.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a place that exists between dream and reality, mind and matter. My name is Igor, and this is my assistant, Henrietta""</font>, he began. His voice was punctual, distinct, but not completely smooth, it gave the man a mysterious quality.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""It appears another guest has joined us at the table""</font>, as he said this, Alexei noticed in the other chairs, that there were silhouettes... He recognized some of them. He saw them in, 'that place', earlier, whatever it was, helping him rescue his sister.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""You almost tread a dangerous path, in your emotional outburst, you would have never accepted that side of yourself...

And you will return here of your own volition when the time comes""</font>, he clicked his fingers, signalling the lady beside him to step over to Alexei, and handed him a distinct key.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But until then... Farewell""</font>, and with that, Alexei's vision faded once more back into reality.</div>"

Seemingly, he knew all the commands to guide this <span class=""bb-i""> Prometheus </span> Despite its massive build, the phantasm was a powerhouse as it dished vicious fire like attacks.<br/><br/>He was a bit jaded as he reached his sister but was reinvigorated when he saw Elena's limp body in the arms of one of the cultists. Throwing caution to the wind, he ran for her. He didn't remember after that but somehow he had carried his baby sister in his arms to the hospital. He may not admit it but she had grown a bit heavier and coupled with whatever he had gone through, he was a bit tired. What he didn't know, was that he was beyond the point of fatigue. Driven solely through willpower alone as he collapsed as soon as he had rested her on a stretcher.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>He found his sleep fading as he was called in by a lovely melody, finding himself in a strange room. Blue from top to bottom, filled with a large, rather expensive looking table. He knew straight away that it wasn't his home, not any of his regular dreams. He would never splurge on something so mundane. <br/><br/>His observation was interrupted by a strange small man. He shared his Granfather's name and had a quiet long nose but something about how he dressed and talked meant that he was the one in-charge of this place. He then looked closely at the table to find a number before him and the name of the card that was kept beside it. <span class=""bb-i""> The Hanged Man </span>, sure sounded ominous. As if noticing his reaction the old man spoke with sagely calm that belied a bit of forewarning. Perhaps, the way he has been living would be considered dangerous or something but he didn't seem to care about it. He'll face his demons when the time comes but he nodded at the old man, more out of respect than agreement. He also noticed a beautiful lady stand next to the man, she had pale blonde hair much like his mother and looked a foreigner too. <br/><br/>On the old man's signal, she moved towards him and handed him a key to whatever this place was and the old man bid him farewell. Alexei found his conscious waning at that moment and soon there was nothing but darkness. But he was content with one thing, his sister was safe and next to him. That's all that mattered, apart from allaying the concerns of his mother.<br/></div>"

Following Rui's lead, She went in with Setanta and began striking the shadow relentlessly with Kill Rush and Akane, with her Katana, as the others also joined in on the attack. As they carried off their assault, Ayano managed to scan the shadow's arm as ordered and found a weak spot that would get around that pesky multi-shield crap. <br/><br/>Without any hesitation, they all barraged the shadows with a torrent of blows and managed to destroy one of the arm's generators with the second one following soon after. Breaking through this recent obstacle, they managed to beat down the shadow and rendered it unable to fight back. It was then left up to Alexei to finish it. While the opponent wasn't strong in the least, it sure was an annoying one with those shields it had. Once those were dealt with, the fight was a cake walk. <span class=""bb-i"">I thought it would've had a bit more stamina than that...</span> she shook her head in disappointment. With this case out of the way and another member added to their team, they can now focus all of their attention towards their main objective, the cult. <br/><br/>Well, that was until Alexei revealed that his little sister was missing and that she was still somewhere within the dungeon. It was strange, in the previous incidents, all of them have been attacked and abducted but it was his sister that was taken, not him. She wasn't sure exactly what was going on but whatever the case was, those cultist scumbags decided to go after a little girl, not to mention the sister of a friend. Extra punishment is in store for them. Placing her hand on Alexei's shoulder....well, she tried to anyways, in the end she settled on a pat on the back. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""No need for that Alexei, Let's go save your sister.""</span></font> she smiled reassuringly, not surprised in the least, unlike the others, about Alexei remaining conscious during this fight. After all, no one has worked as hard and tirelessly like Alexei. She was sure of that.<br/><br/>Anyways, with the shadow gone, they were now able to go deeper inside the dungeon. After taking a slight rest, they pressed on through the now unsealed door and dealt with all the shadows that got in their way. Reaching the final floor, they entered the final room and found Elena, along with the cultists. Glaring and ready to fight, she moved forward before stopping as she took a better look at them. Are these....really the ones responsible for everything? These pathetic cowards? They're much too weak. Clearly disappointed in the sight, Akane dropped her arms to her side and found her rage subsiding. Well, normal or not, they still decided to kidnap a poor girl and will need to be punished for it, However, this time....it's not her place to do so. It was Big brother's time to shine. <br/><br/>And shine he did, though, in a different way than she imagined. And Not just her, but the others as well. Just as they cultists began their empty threats as continued to cower, the man's voice began changing as he fell to the ground with a loud shriek of pain as a shadow began emerging from his body. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""What in the hell...?!""</span></font> she yelled. Without any warning, it charged in and before they were able to react, Alexei beat them to it and charged right past them, and quickly destroyed it.

This has been quite a common recurring thought throughout her mirror world 'adventures'. With each encounter, it gets even stranger. Though, admittedly, Akane found it all quite exciting and thrilling. But, she decided to keep this thought to herself as they made their way back to the warehouse. Once back, she sighed. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Were they seriously the ones going around nabbing. To think I, of all people, were overwhelmed by the likes of them.

Even though they had more people, which would overwhelm anyone, she couldn't help but feel her pride being damaged at the thought of being abducted by such weaklings. Though angry at it all, she instantly calmed down once she glanced over at Alexei carrying Elena, before looking apologetic, muttering a <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Sorry.""</span></font><br/><br/>After the awkward then then proceeded to discuss what they've found out and experienced in the mirror world before concluding with Kami suggesting that they go home and rest. Though she doesn't like agreeing with him, she thought that was the best course of action at the moment.

The latter of those concerns would turn out to be unfounded - whilst the former was quickly alleviated when the group carried on; guided once again by Ayano along the shortest path. Much like before, the shadows didn't seem very numerous or dangerous - not that Kotori would complain about that of course. Instead, she was far more preoccupied with the increasingly bleak setting that the dungeon was taking on - where previously at least some colour had been sprinkled about, the final stretch was devoid of all that and managed to still feel unsettling despite its tackiness.<br/><br/>The attention would quickly shift elsewhere as they reached the final room - wherein they finally managed to catch up to the kidnappers. Kotori's steps slowed for a moment when she recoginsed them - not the cultists themselves, but rather their clothing's general appearance - being the same as the ones responsible for her own kidnapping. However, she quickly caught herself again as she saw one of them carrying Elena in his arms. With a weak voice, one of the kidnappers warned them to stay back - an order summarily ignored by Alexei who pressed on unabatedly - whilst at the same time they seemed quite unnerved. It wasn't until one started to ask where this place was that it became apparent that they were rather confused - something which, in turn, confused Kotori who'd expected these kidnappers to know exactly what they were doing.<br/><br/>A moment later, she flinched when a sudden cry interrupted the man's questioning - as a shadow poured out from his body before their eyes. His partner was a lot more horrified than the rescue team - including Kotori, who, whilst she hadn't actually seen a shadow emerge from a person, likewise knew that such a thing seemed to be commonplace for anyone caught in this world. However, there was little time for any analysis - such things could be left for Ayano now or everyone later while they dealt with the immediate threat. <font color=""green"">""Ki...""</font> Kotori started - but before she got any further, Alexei slammed the shadow into the group; leaving it an easy victim for the others to quickly dispatch. With the other cultist falling to his knees at the overwhelming confusion at what was unfolding before him, the fight came to a rather rapid conclusion as Alexei wasted no time in picking up his sister.<br/><br/>Despite the rather strange circumstances, Kotori was still relieved to see that things seemed to have turned out well after all.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehouse | Saturday, June 13 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>With Alexei taking care of his sister and Rui and Kaminari delivering the cultists to the police, they'd agreed to return to the warehouse - leaving a not unwelcome break for Kotori as they waited for the others to return. Though it had been an easier dungeon - perhaps due to its very recent formation - she still had to catch her breath once the pressure and anxiety she'd felt inside washed away. It did leave some time though to think about the events that had just transpired - in particular the rather strange way the cultists had reacted to the other realm. They placed the kidnappees there, so why would they be surprised at it?<br/><br/>Unfortunately, she didn't have any answers before Rui and Kaminari returned - bringing news that Alexei had dropped his sister off at the hospital and himself dropped just a moment later. Those present discussed the same events Kotori had just pondered - but no one seemed to be able to make any sense of it either. Soon enough, they concluded that there was little use in trying to brood about something they knew too little about and decided to end things here for today; Kaminari promising to look for leads whilst Megumi and Kazuki would keep an eye on the Mirror World.<br/><br/>With that done, the group disbanded as everyone headed off in their respective directions - home, in Kotori's case. The oddness surrounding the day's events still lingered in her thoughts even once she'd arrived. Once she'd placated her mother's interest in these friends of hers and returned to her room, she found her school bag laying atop her bed where she'd hastily placed it when she'd received the message about a new kidnappe just after school - left there precisely to remind her that she still had her homework to do after all. She'd almost forgotten about that in all the rush - but thankfully, her note-keeping made doing said homework quite a simple affair.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Hospital | Sunday, June 14 2015 - Afternoon</span><br/><br/>As ever, Kotori felt somewhat uneasy as she walked down one of the hospital hallways. She was of half a mind to turn around and leave - but quickly shook her head at the thought. After all, it's not like a hospital was something bad, so there was no reason to dislike it - at least that's what she told herself, but to little avail. Looking over the room numbers, she was getting closer to the one she was lookign for; as per the instructions of the lady at the reception. She'd seemed rather surprised to see Kotori - and even recognised her, but was quickly dissuaded from any worries about sudden emergencies when she saw the flowers she was carrying.<br/><br/>These same flowers - two small bouquets of a few pale green peonies and blue hydrangea as get well gifts - were carefully moved over to one arm as Kotori used the other to raise a hand to the door in front of her - though she hesitated to knock. Much as she had about even coming here in the first place rather than just asking her mother to deliver the flowers, Kotori mulled over whether she really should go - wouldn't just showing up unannounced with flowers in hand be somewhat awkward when the one doing so wasn't even more than a fellow student?<br/><br/>However, much like before, Kotori once again shook her head to get rid of those thoughts - after all, she'd been somewhat surprised but ultimately glad to have received as many visitors as she had during her stay in the hospital after her kidnapping ordeal. With that thought in mind, she gave a faint knock - it was doubtful as to whether it would even be heard on the other side - before waiting for a second or ten and then slowly opening the door. Peering inside, she saw that the room was a double room with two beds - upon each of which one of the Dragunov siblings lay.<br/><br/>Stepping inside, Kotori quickly gave a bow in greeting - which turned out a little difficult to do while carrying the flowers in her hands; all the while giving a strange feeling of déjàvu, except with the roles of patient and visitor reversed. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, g-good afternoon,""</font> she quickly said in her usual quiet voice; a little unsure about what to do at that point - whilst she'd been to the hospital a few times, she'd never been here as a visitor before. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Kotori went, eyes quickly glancing about the room behind her glasses before coming to rest on a small cupboard - a likely place for a vase of sorts. <font color=""green"">""I-I brought some flowers,""</font> she said, slightly lifting the mix of blues and greens for emphasis - realising a moment later that she was merely stating the rather obvious; leaving a wry half-smile on her face at that.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah, unless it's bother?""</font> Kotori asked, as it occured to her halfway to the cupboard that perhaps neither of the two might actually want any flowers by their bedside, seeing as no one had actually asked for them - just because she liked them didn't necessarily mean the same for everyone else after all.</div>"

It was nice to relax a bit sometimes, now that he had done nothing but rest for full sixteen hours. No chores to run, food to make or things to fix.

She had always felt protected and nurtured but something was different today. Her brother wasn't know for open display of love, well if you discount the flowers and the pains he goes to in making her lunch but smiling together and other non verbal communications were rather limited. She couldn't place it but she was happy if things looked like what they were.<br/><br/>A faint knock caught his attention, it was a bit too light for a hospital staff and the fact that almost everyone knew him because of his mother here. They could openly announce themselves and enter. Perhaps, the news may have caught on to Inoue and Sagat. He didn't expect any others.<br/><br/>So he was pleasantly surprised when Kotori opened the door after a brief pause. Carrying two bouquets for the siblings, this was certainly unexpected.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">""Ah!

Should she try to talk her way out of it - even if she heavily doubted she'd be able to do so? However, before she could even say anything further, Alexei spoke up to try and calm some of his sister's excitement - and quickly making Kotori rather surprised when he said she'd been of such help. <font color=""green"">""Eh?

Luckily though, a distraction presented itself as Rui stepped into the room; prompting Kotori to stand back up after she'd only just sat down on the edge of the bed at Elena's motioning to give a bow in somewhat thankful greeting: <font color=""green"">""Ah, good afternoon, Shinichi-san.""</font><br/><br/>Seeing as he'd been the one to tell her of all the details after she'd been rescued and subsequently gained her persona, Kotori assumed - or rather, hoped - Rui was here to do the same for Alexei; though it was a slightly different situation with his sister in the know but not having gained a persona - either way though, Kotori sat back down for the moment to take a momentary breather and hoped that Rui would be able to clear up some things.</div>"

That aside, today was the day a new waiter had come into work and Kenji was just in the middle of instructing Aiko Yamamoto on how to brew a hot cappuccino when the doors slammed open.

With her habit to eat her favorite part first, the younger student picked up the fork and poked at the chestnut atop the cake before plopping it into her mouth. The satisfied expression upon her face made it evident that she was enjoying the mont blanc until Masahide thanked Shizuka once again for introducing the shop to him. But before she could reply, he continued and ended with a teasing statement. Being how she was, the female teen took the question seriously and averted her gaze to the side as she spoke in an embarrassed tone, <font color=""violet"">""Um...

The neatly folded towel atop the bench was picked up by the tired tennis player, before being gently tapped along her face. Having the need to see properly to accurately hit the tennis ball, the long, dark bangs were pinned up by simple, white hair pins. Her eyes were clearly visible for anyone to see but fortunately for the timid teen, she had yet to see anyone she recognized today. The towel was then tapped along her slender neck to wipe off the perspiration while Shizuka decided to buy a drink from the vending machine at the main lobby.<br/><br/>Out of the tennis court and into the recreational center's main lobby, Shizuka walked as she dried herself with the towel. She was still in her tennis uniform, white polo shirt with a pleated sky blue skirt, since it could pull off as casual clothes anyway. Dropping a few coins into the vending machine, the teen pressed the button for a refreshing sports drink before taking a seat at one of the benches to take a sip of her drink.</div>"

Shaking his head free from the thoughts for a moment, he'd return his gaze to her, continuing a casual conversation all the while pouring over his thoughts from a moment before.

All that was left now was for Alexei to accept his true feelings. Watching the scene unfold, the girl is reminded of her own experiences and silently cheered on Alexei, if all of the others could accept themselves, then he should too! Suddenly, a familiar blue light began to envelop itself around him and a smile formed on Ayano's lips, thankfully he was able to realize that he and the shadow were but one being and the monster from earlier transformed into a new source of power.<br/><br/>There was a brief pause and Ayano was half expecting Alexei to fall down and faint like she did but that never happened, which struck her as odd. Another that struck her odd was the fact that there was another person in the dungeon, Alexei's sister. She scratched her head, it seemed like their little expedition wasn't over just yet. The party raged on, the dungeon becoming dull and bland as they advanced and Alexei had certainly gotten the hang of using his persona in just a short while. Finally, they reached the end point of the dungeon, a feeling of uneasiness coursed throughout Ayano's body...What was waiting behind this door? Some kind of super boss that you always encounter at the last minute? And if it was Alexei's sister, whose to say she doesn't have a shadow of her own? The thoughts just made her shudder but the party moved on regardless and what greeted them was something unexpected, to say the least.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#fff200"">Crypt of Hopes and Dreams - Empress' Tomb<br/>13/6/2015, Saturday</font></span></div><br/><br/>With what little information they knew about the cultists, Ayano was just in a state of shock and awe...These are the guys that were responsible for kidnapping all of them? But, they looked just like your Average Joe's...Were these really the ones behind all of the terror surrounding Warakuma? She couldn't believe the feed she was receiving on her screen, the other's were just as shocked as she was, if not disappointed. One of them ordered to stay put but Alexei rushed recklessly to save his sister but Ayano's attention shifted focus to a disgruntled voice in the same room, it was another cultist, his voice shaky and looking like he was about to convulse. With an agonized cry, the man fell to the ground and what erupted was a shadow?!<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""What the?""</font></span></span> <br/><br/>The thing charged at them but was quickly struck down by Alexei and the other cultist and Alexei's Sister fell to their knees.

After a brief moment of respite, the two returned to report that Alexei stayed in the hospital as well, collapsing from the exhaustion as well. With the formalities over the group began to discuss what the hell just happened earlier in the dungeon. Sure, this was a huge step forward for the team in terms of investigating the cult but all it did was just raise more questions...<br/><br/>What were these cults after? What is their real motive for kidnapping them? Is it some sort of philosophical or religious quest about teaching people to look inside of themselves and accept that they truly are monsters inside and learning to overcome this? All of it was just too much to handle, thinking about it more just caused Ayano's head to hurt. The day concluded with Kami telling everyone to go rest and Ayano couldn't be more glad to hear that. Still, it wasn't bad for the first day on the job.</div>"

He'd finally established that he needed a broader perspective on his hunch, which was why he was here-  he needed to find out who else was involved in this business of saving the kidnap victims, if indeed it was as organized as he assumed it to be. Without enough evidence, Sato- and anyone else whose involvement he'd uncovered- could just dodge his questioning all day long. Which would be a downer, to say the least. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">If this really is the destiny that that Blue Lady keeps talking about... if I'm meant to help save these victims, then I need to prove I can handle it, first.</span></font> And therein lay the real reason he'd been pursuing this so doggedly. The slim hope that this was actually something to do with that dream he'd been having since he first got to Warakuma. The chance that he wasn't just incomprehensibly crazy, that there was actually something greater past all this dream fuckery. So, he waited. Thankfully, he didn't have to wait long. Shirohane-san, from his class, had just arrived at the latest victim's room. Dragunov was his name, Alexei Dragunov. She was carrying flowers. Without even noticing he was there, the girl opened the door and hurried inside.<br/><br/>After another short while, someone else arrived. Shinichi-san, from Drama Club. Mako raised an eyebrow, still watching the room as the boy went inside, greeting both the victim and Shirohane. Weird. So they knew each other, too? His interest was piqued, but he held it in check. He didn't know either of the victims well, nor their visitors. They could all be old friends with one another and there was no way for him to know. Still, it bothered him- Shirohane had also been a kidnap victim, abducted the same time as Sato. And speaking of Sato, hadn't he seen Shinichi at the hospital when he went to visit Sato?<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Not enough to confirm out of hand, but... not enough to deny it, either.</span></font> Mako crossed his arms, still thinking.

She'd been the same at the time - but trying to explain it when she didn't even know all that much herself nor whether it was a good idea to involve Elena left little for her to do but give wry half-smile of mixed guilt and gratitude. Looking back up, Kotori blinked in momentary surprise when she saw Alexei holding an apple out toward her - evidently one of the fruit basket on the bedside table.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> she went at the gesture - only to blink at his words. However, before she could even voice any protests at the request to visit, Rui stepped in and diverted the attention away - not to much dismay of Kotori at that moment, as she didn't really know how to explain that it really was the others that Alexei should be thanking thusly, seeing as all she'd done was tag along and help them out if the need arose. Shifting position on the edge of Elena's hospital bed to allow the younger girl to see whom her brother was talking to instead of needlessly sitting in her line of sight - and because, with the immediate attention drawn from her, she felt the uncomfortableness that always seemed to accompany hospitals returning; leaving her a little restless.<br/><br/>Rui meanwhile began talking; asking about the eventual discharge date which turned out to be later this day; or rather night apparently. Kotori left the talking to the two of them - at least until Alexei mentioned wanting a drink that the nurses had advised against. Just as she wondered whether to say something about following the doctor's orders, the door opened once again - this time revealing Akane to be another visitor. Kotori quickly gave a bow as she returned her classmate's greeting before sitting down once more; though moving some more again in case any of the other two visitors too wanted to take a seat. It was only when Akane then turned the conversation to Elena that Kotori realised she hadn't actually asked about the girl directly - instead, she'd just assumed that her condition would be the same as Alexei, given how she was showing as much enthusiastic cheer as she had back at the library. With a pang of guilt at the thought, Kotori glanced between the two siblings in waiting for an answer.</div>"

Regardless, the broad third-year accepted his shadow and a fiery knight appeared in its place, if only for a second.

What if people with radically different problems entered at the same place and at the same time?<br/><br/>	Before long they were at the last room, only having to go through some insignificant shadows to get there (in which Alexai surprisingly helped; did he care about his sister that much that he had the strength to keep going even after dealing with his shadow?). The innards of the crypt got more decrepit as they went on, the coloration losing its brightness and taking on a much more serious tone in them. More surprising though, was finding the same cultists who presumably kidnapped Alexai's sister (and Alexai? Sato was still unsure on that part). The final room appeared to be a dead-end, so the cultists were trapped. The cultists shouted confused sentences, ones that confused Sato himself. Before he could process them again, the voice of the cultist changed into something eerily familiar.<br/><br/>	Confirming Sato's suspicion, the man suddenly fell to the ground. A shadow erupted from his body, and in a blind panic it charged the persona users. Alexai cut it down like it was nothing, and charged the remaining cultist, who quickly fell to the ground beside Elena. Whatever just happened, it didn't matter in the moment, as they had basically just recovered Elena without anymore shadow stuff happening. With that done, everyone returned to the real world.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">JUNE 14TH 2015, SUNDAY<br/>Mid-day</span><br/>	Sato sat in his room, browsing through the search results for <span class=""bb-i"">Junsei Sekai Tensei</span>, which was apparently the cult's name. A now lukewarm cup of tea sat in front his face as he rested his chin on his arms. He'd been searching for at least an hour, and he hadn't learned anything particularly new or useful. Maybe there was a reason that Kami was a member dedicated to this part of the investigation. Was there some kind of deep-web he had to go on to get anything relevant?<br/><br/>	Sighing, Sato leaned back in his chair, stretching his arms above his head. Thinking back to the day before, they had carried the cultists out of the mirror world after saving both Alexai and his sister, Elena. They turned the two men into the police, so that's good. What wasn't good was how a shadow had come out of one of them. What did it mean? What <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> a shadow? The team discussed the cultists and what they said once everything was dealt with. Based off of what they had said, the consensus was that the majority of the cultists were unaware of the true nature of the mirror world, instead believing it to be some alternate paradise world. There was the mention of some ""Lady Asai"", a name that had to be essential to the investigation. Kami concurred with this thought, while Megumi and Kazuki decided to keep an even closer watch on the mirror world, which comforted Sato a little. At least nobody would slip through the cracks now, hopefully.<br/><br/>	After that, everyone went home. Sato had fallen asleep as soon as he hit his bed, waking up ten minutes before eleven the next day. With Alexai saved, there wasn't much else to be concerned with. Just a normal sunday to relax on. Or so Sato wanted it to be, but his head was filled with thoughts and questions about the cultists. What exactly were they after? Why would they try to kidnap people to put them in there? Who was this Lady Asai, and what she telling these people?<br/><br/>	Sato took a deep breath, and let it out as he got up. Some fresh air was what he needed, having been mulling over this whole cult thing the whole morning. It was suffocating in its own way. He considered dropping by the hospital to check on Alexai, but he barely knew the guy, and plenty of the others who did were bound to show up there.<br/><br/>	Sighing, Sato got up from his chair and whipped out his phone, dialing Rokurou's number. He flopped onto his bed and waiting for the other boy to pick up. When there was no answer, Sato just let the phone fall from his hand and onto the sheets. Sunlight beamed down on his face, making it all the more unlikely he'd bother opening them any time soon.</div>"

Kotori, much like usual, finished up her notes for the day before rechecking them. Once she was satisfied, she packed her belongings together - though not before passing a glance through the quickly-emptying classroom. Perhaps it had just been her imagination, but occasionally throughout the week it had felt as if someone was watching her during class - though when nothing looked out of the ordinary, Kotori quickly shook her head at her own silliness. Perhaps the whole cult thing was getting to her and she was starting to imagine things. Unfortunately though, there hadn't been any progress on the investigation - leaving a small, barely audible sigh to escape her lips.

It was quite a contrast to how the room had started out, having only been home to a scant few flowers and by now looking like it was halfway to becoming a small greenhouse.<br/><br/>Only after a moment of taking in the sight did her attention instead wander about the room; looking to see if any of the other two club members had arrived before her - and if the daily watering of the plants was still in need of doing - as she set down her schoolbag next to the table in the room.</div>"

To be quite honest, he had been very bored this past week and it was beginning to show on his face. He was vaguely considering just going to Anime and Manga club, but he had been showing up every day at this point. He needed to try and do something new, something outside of school. Or at least something outside of Anime and Manga club. It was in this line of thinking that he passed by the Agriculture Club. Ryan stopped in his tracks and looked at the room apprehensively. Was he really ready to enter anohter club so soon after joining one club. He raised his hand to knock on the door and waited for a moment. And then another. Fianlly he took the plunge and knocked on the door. <br/><br/>""Hello? Is anyone inside at the moment? I would like to speak to whomever runs this club.""

Not a lot of solid plans were made but there were definitely going to be bonding time with her close friends, Rinko and Nozomi, as well as some working days at the cosplay cafe. Seeing as the freshman was making her way towards the Agriculture Club, a curious thought formed in her mind. Would she still be able to see the upperclassman during the break? She knew the flowers in the club might not be properly taken care of by the school staff, so there was bound to be a chance for at least either of the upperclassmen to visit occasionally.<br/><br/>The hopeful thought slightly embarrassed Shizuka as she realized at the thought, her cheeks slightly flushed. Before approaching the club room, she snapped out of her thoughts when her eyes caught sight of a familiar figure, Ryan Alon, her classmate. Assuming that he might've had some sort of reason to intrude the club, the raven haired teen spoke as she opened the door before him. <font color=""violet"">""Um, hello Alon-san, do you have some sort of business with the Agriculture club?

Once it finally rang, she bolted from the classroom and headed straight to the clubroom. Why, one might ask considering how Akane has been staying away from it and been doing other things, is that recently, after all the 'persona' incidents, she has felt a surge of inspiration that she needed to get on paper a.s.a.p. It's been a return of sorts for her and has been drawing non-stop for days now.<br/><br/>Arriving at the room, she opened the door and quickly took out her things, including her manuscript. It wasn't even close to being ready for Comiket, well, most people would be happy with what she has already but she isn't most people.

Realising that she'd just heard what probably wasn't meant for her ears, Kotori sat rather stiffly in her chair as she quickly tried to think of some way around this situation - announcing her presence would, at that point, be rather embarrassing. Trying to answer the question as if it had been directed at her would be an option - if she actually had an answer. She briefly considered slowly standing up, sneaking out and then entering again; sure to announce herself more clearly this time whilst pretending not to have heard anything concerning such private matters - except that at that moment, a knock came from the door.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah!""</font> Kotori went in surprise - not necessarily at the knock, but rather the fact that, instead of the door opening, a voice spoke from the other side. In particular, not Shizuka's voice, whom she'd have expected, but instead a male voice that called out for the club president. Standing up, Kotori hoped that the unexpected appearance was perhaps a friend of Matthew's who had come looking for him and would prove to be a distraction - even as the door was opened just a scant few moments later when Shizuka had seemingly arrived to and entered the clubroom; an unfamiliar boy standing behind her. Kotori quickly glanced between all three before giving a bow in greeting to the two new arrivals: <font color=""green"">""Ah, good afternoon, Otonashi-san...""</font> she said before readjusting her glasses that had slightly slipped in the surprise.<br/><br/>Unfamiliar with the other boy - the previous glance revealing his uniform to be that of a first year much like Shizuka - Kotori didn't know what to call him nor how he related to either of the other two; leaving her to nervously glance between Matthew and Shizuka as to whether they would instead take the lead in such a situation - even whilst she couldn't quite help but worry slightly if everything was alright between the other two club members, given what she'd inadvertently overhead before.</div>"

She glanced at the clock in the room and she smirked, any moment now the bell would ring and as if on cue, the bell resonated throughout the room and the teacher displayed their disappointment of not being able to finish their lesson.

Stepping out of the door and with her things packed, she made her way to the club room.<br/><br/>Peering her head inside of the room, she wasn't surprised to see Akane being the first-and only-one in the room so far, with her sketches and drawings strewn all over the table.

As he approached Alexei, he spoke,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Is there something you needed from the Manga Club?""</font>, he asked. It was most likely to speak with Akane, since this was the same setting he first saw Alexei, looking to speak with Akane that is.<br/><br/>When the door was opened finally, Rui stepped in and immediately the drawings on the table attracted his attention.

He double checked who was in the room, and it seems to be okay,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Akane are those... The dungeons? And even some shadows?""</font>, he asked.

Some kid from 3-2 had asked him to deliver the school work Rokurou had missed in his absence. Truth be told, Sato didn't even know that Rokurou had been absent. He'd been too preoccupied with his own studies and the cult case to go to archery practice, or even notice. But here he was, since Sato was seen as ""Ishihara's friend"" at school, his name only known by association with Rokurou. Apparently, Rokurou wasn't particularly friendly with the crowd in 3-2, and escaped from conversations and events through detailing his plans with Sato or whoever else. Thus, Sato was known as Rokurou's escape plan.<br/><br/>	Or, at least, that was what Rokurou told him. Realizing nobody was coming, Sato knocked again, this time peering through the window to see if anyone was even there. A few moments passed, and just as Sato was turning around to leave, the door opened and there stood one of Rokurou's snotty younger brothers. This time literally snotty as he appeared to be sick.<br/><br/>	""Hey there."" Sato started, shifted uncomfortably in his clothes. How do you talk to kids, let alone kids you don't know? ""I'm a friend of Rokurou's. Do you happen to know where your brother is?""<br/><br/>	The kid only sniffed, clutching a blanket and a bottle of water. Sato rolled his eyes, and was about to give the kid the papers when the kid pointed behind Sato. The teen turned around to see Rokurou appear from the street. He gave a wave, and with that, Rokurou's brother shuffled off back to bed.<br/><br/>	""Here's your notes,"" Sato said, handing the stack off to the taller male as he walked past. Rokurou didn't even look at them before tossing them onto some table inside. He was almost gone down a hallway when he turned around to say something.<br/><br/>	""What are you waiting for? Make yourself at home."" And with that, Rokurou disappeared into some room. Sato looked around hesistantly, before inviting himself into the Ishihara residence. He'd been there plenty before of course, but it was... missing something. Paintings, or furniture, or something. Regardless, Sato found his way to the kitchen and stood by the sink. The sounds of a water boiler vibrated through the house, and it occured to Sato that Rokurou had been wearing work clothes, and was probably showering now. But why would he be skipping school to go work? Who would even let him do that, or even let him work?<br/><br/>	It was as he contemplated this that he realized that Rokurou's family wasn't at home, except for one brother. A rummaging sound distracted Sato from his thoughts, and he turned to see Rokurou scanning the fridge for something. It was depressingly lacking. Eventually he decided on some kind of leftovers, which was thrown into the microwave for a minute. Rokurou leaned back against the counter and looked at Sato, who awkwardly hovered over the sink. The brawnier teen was wearing a blue shirt and presumably his boxer. His hair was still soaked, a towel wrapped around his neck. Did he even try to dry it?<br/><br/>	On a different train of thought, it made Sato all the more conscious that he was wearing his uniform, fresh out of school. The microwave stopped, beeping instead. Was he out of school to take care of his brother, who was presumably sick? Where was his family? Rokurou put a disgusting amount of soy sauce on whatever it was he was planning on eating.<br/><br/>	""The family's out in Hokkaido 'cuz some aunt died. I was planning on kicking it home alone, but then my asshole of a brother decided to get sick last minute and I had to take care of him for the week."" Rokurou blurted out, stirring his food. ""'Case you were wondering.""<br/><br/>	""I was."" Sato admitted, looking up at Rokurou. ""Don't you think it would've nice to go to your dead aunt's funeral? It's your family, after all.""<br/><br/>	""Fuck family,"" Rokurou replied through a mouthful of rice. He took a moment to swallow it before continuing. ""My parents would'nt've wanted me to come anyway. I'm not too well recieved in my family, in case you didn't put that together. They're so in love with school that they've had it with my <span class=""bb-i"">delinquent behavior</span>. You'd think they'd be mistaking me with those posers from school who try to act all tough all the time."" He took a bite out of some kind of eggroll. It looked gross, fitting the copius amounts of soy put on it.<br/><br/>	""I get it, actually. There are some people in my family I'd rather be without too. Not like I ever talk to them or anything, but it'd be better if they just... didn't exist, or something."" Sato glanced down at the floor, eyes tracing the lines in the wood flooring. The look of slight surprise on Rokurou's face was too annoying to look at. Before the whole cult thing happened to him, Sato would've just disagreed with him, too ashamed to admit his true feelings that fell in line with Rokurou's. But now... He had made a promise to himself, then. And he was going to keep it.<br/><br/>	Rokurou's voice broke him out of his thought. ""Can ya help me decipher my homework? I'm too dumb to get caught up on time without help."" A warm smile accompanied the request, and Sato just couldn't say no. Sato started towards the stack of papers to get started, but as he passed Rokurou, he ripped the towel from around Rokurou's neck and quickly dried the taller teen's dripping hair with it before he could get away.<br/><br/>	""Don't walk around like that,"" Sato said, subtly imitating his own mother. ""You'll get a cold.""</div>"

Hearing him clearly and on a second glance, Kotori only now noticed that the boy appeared to be of foreign descent; much like Matthew or Alexei - leaving her to briefly wonder if Warakuma was secretly a famous exchange school.

However, Rui wasn't the only one to make a quick retreat - the other boy suddenly announced that he too had to go.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Kotori blinked in surprise at his sudden words, just as he turned to leave; apologising for wasting any time and promising to return another time. With that, both unexpected visitors were gone as quickly as they had arrived; leaving just the usual three in the clubroom. Kotori looked at the door for a moment before glancing over to Shizuka and then Matthew - only to remember the latter's mutterings from before now that the immediate distractions were gone. Neither knowing what to say to such a thing nor whether she should say anything at all left her to instead give an awkward half-smile as she took her seat once again - though not without a brief glance to the door just to make sure that there weren't yet more unannounced visitors about to pop in.</div>"

Luckily though, Matthew soon spoke up - asking how things were today. <font color=""green"">""Eh? Ah, uhm, q-quite fine,""</font> Kotori said before glancing over to Shizuka - for all their attempts, it seemed that the three of them weren't going to be getting rid of the stiff atmosphere quite so easily. That thought in turn brought back to memory Matthew's previous mumblings; leading Kotori to wish she knew something to say - or an excuse to leave the two of them alone. Either way, it looked like it was going to be a long club meeting.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehous | Sunday, June 21 2015</span><br/><br/>Kotori was just catching her breath after having rushed over when the last of today's group arrived. She'd felt a bit uneasy when she'd gotten the message from Rui - though a small part of her always hoped that he was instead just letting everyone know that the case was solved and the kidnappings stopped, Kotori wasn't all that surprised, if a little disheartened, to see that instead another meeting was being called. Arriving at the warehouse, it once again turned out that yet more people had been kidnapped - and this time, two at a time.<br/><br/>That did seem even more worrying - Alexei and his sister being kidnapped at the same time might be explained as an accident, but every other kidnapping, excepting Sato's and her own, had been a single case. Kotori just hoped that this didn't mean that the kidnappings were increasing from now on - or that perhaps another perpetrator had stepped up. However, now was not the time to try and figure things out - Kaminari was going to follow a lead whilst everyone else would focus their efforts on rescuing those in the other world for now.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Mirror World: Crossroads | Sunday</span><br/><br/>Rather than arrive at a single dungeon as had been the case with the Dragunov siblings, the group instead came upon a crossroad. One path lead to an incredibly tall and rather ominous tower of concrete reaching into the sky further than the eye could see, even after quickly wiping her glasses. The other road meanwhile lead to another large building, but this time no tower but rather a theater. That much was evident just from looking at it; the façade looking like those of old-time theaters. Glancing between the two, neither struck Kotori as very appealing - theaters usually meant stages and spotlights and audiences whilst the tower looked to be an endless climb, if the kidnapped person happened to be at the top, as would probably be the case with her luck. Furthermore, there were two dungeons - leaving Kotori a little worried that she'd be able to keep up with everyone when she'd already had some trouble at the end of the Ayano rescue.<br/><br/>With a quick shake of her head, Kotori cleared herself of those increasingly negative thoughts and instead focused on the fact that they were here to rescue the kidnapping victims. A bit of nervousness still remained, but she'd calmed herself enough to look over to Rui as he selected the members of the rescue team - or teams, rather, given that they now had two telepathic navigators on their side.</div>"

Sato doubted it'd be like last time if the two weren't as connected and close together as the Dragonuv siblings, and the suspicion was only confirmed when the team arrived at the split in the road. In one direction was a climbing skyscraper, which looked more like a never ending slab of concrete, with its lack of windows and, well... skyscraper stuff. To the other side was an old theater, rather lacking in unusual attributes.<br/><br/>	Megumi noted a connection between the two dungeons, which was deemed potentially useful since it lacked some of the dungeons' danger. Sato thought it was awfully convenient that they also had two people with navigation capabilities now. This appeared to be optimal conditions for a two-team dungeon run. But that meant certain people would only go to a certain dungeon. Considering this, Sato looked at the two buildings before them. The skyscraper was far from welcoming, while the theater appeared much more tame. The choice was obvious, but Sato didn't want to seem a coward so he simply looked to Rui for the final decision.

Ayano became surprised when she heard they were dungeons as well, it made her look back at the drawings and how it must have felt for the others experiencing such an eldritch location, not to mention all the shadows lurking about...   <br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#fff200"">Abandoned Warehouse<br/>21/6/2015, Thursday</font></span></div><br/><br/>After few short moments of reprieve, it was inevitable that the team would be called again. There really is no rest for the wicked is there? Two of the other members have said that there were two victims again. Again? The girl cocked her head to the side, so this isn't the first time it happened? Perhaps the cult is trying to speed things up by kidnapping pairs now...Rather than mull over it for any longer, she decided to join the others, departing to the mirror world once more.<br/><br/>However, rather than being greeted by the dungeon proper, the group came to a crossroads, quite literally at that. The road forked between two different structures, the other one was a theater that looked straight out of the Renaissance-era, the other one was a skyscraper that could only be described as a modern version of the Babel.  She glanced back and forth between the two, unsure of which one she was more comfortable with. On one hand, the theater doesn't pierce the heavens with its height but who knows it's not some sort of maze inside that's much bigger in scale than what it appears to be? The skyscraper wasn't much appealing either, the lack of windows definitely gave it a scary vibe, and again, from her vantage point, it looks like it reaches space at this point.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Well, no use complaining.

He had a responsibility to protect the defenseless, the weak. He was never a righteous man, he usually worked himself bare only because that meant time away from his own loneliness and self-loathe but it had begun to change.<br/><br/>Akane's reassurance was the first step towards that change, he decided that if he wanted his sister to be independent like he wanted, he'd have to relinquish some control. He can't forever be looking over her soldier like some guardian and try and make things easy for her. The world was a hard place and it was time that he made his sister self-sufficient enough to fend for herself. That began with him teaching what he had learnt over the years.<br/><br/>When Rui's message came, he wasn't sure if he had totally bought this whole hero thing but after mulling it over. He picked himself and went out to find the location mentioned. Upon arriving he was greeted by a few others he didn't remember but from their behavior it seemed that they expected him. He was shown an assortment of weapons to choose from as the room was empty, the girl said that others were already inside. He scanned through the inventory to find an item he thought he'd be comfortable with. <br/><br/>A heavy tire iron, it suited him in a way. After giving it a good look and doing some empty swings, he just asked the boy to show him the way. Walking through the mirror world, he had the same woozy feeling as the time when Elena got taken. It took him a moment to readjust himself. As he jogged on ahead, he could see a group gathered at the crosswords.<br/><br/>Akane and Rui seemed to be present, so was Matt, Ayano and Kotori. It meant he was with his schoolmates just the setting was different. As he looked on ahead, the monolith caught his fancy. The dread that resonated from it seem to move Alexei at a basic animalistic level. He pointed his finger to air his view about his leaning, if anyone was interested.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'll be taking the Tower.""</span></font> he said in his trademark deep grumble.</div>"

Upon opening the doors the party was met with something that defied all logic, considering the dungeon was high tower. Instead, they were met with a sprawling battlefield, with no walls in sight, and a horizon as far as the eye can see. Behind them was most certainly the way out, but no walls alongside it or anything. Like one of those dimensional doors. In any case, the path before them was obvious as they descended into the trenches.<br/><br/>The battlefield around them raged, and the tech as saw was World War I, but it was also accompanied by out of place objects, such as office equipment. Still, they had not yet met any shadows for awhile, and the trenches didn't seem to be designed as a labyrinth, so at least the way forward was obvious. The only thing they've seen so far is shadowy soldiers charging through the battlefield above the trenches, and being slaughtered by unseen machine gun nests.<br/><br/>Still, they best be wary for now...<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Play of Control - F1<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Well, they certainly put out the red carpet""</font>, led by Kazuki was Akane, Matt, and Noboru.

It wasn't as risky as it was before, because Ayano navigated for Rui's group, while Megumi for Kazuki's.<br/><br/>The theater's interior was unexpected, the exterior certainly looked old fashioned, but it didn't look as gaudy as the inside. There really was a red carpet rolled out for them too, and it led further into the dungeon. Decorations and everything were top notch, everything was almost perfect, it was unnerving. Everything was so well put into place, that a strange fear of messing it up began to come across the party...<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I don't like this feeling...

Megumi would oversee the group heading into the theater, consisting of Akane, Matthew and Noboru whilst being led by Kazuki whilst Ayano would watch over the Rui-led Alexei, Sato and Kotori group that would take on the ominous tower; leaving anyone else to remain behind as backup and protection for their two guides. With the preparations completed thusly, a last few wishes for good luck and the like were exchanged - in Kotori's case a quick <font color=""green"">""Stay safe""</font> - before they split up to head for their respective destinations. As they drew near, Kotori's eyes wandered up the enormous and ominous tower; her previous fears welling up once again.<br/><br/>However, with a quick shake of her head, Kotori instead looked between her three companions - Rui, who had already led them safely through several dungeons, Sato, who had fought through at least as many dungeons as herself, and Alexei, who had already proven that he could handle his persona and himself during the rescue of his sister. Furthermore, Ayano was there to guide them, warn them and keep them up to speed on everything - so as long as she did her own part, things would work out just fine. At least, that's what Kotori told herself as they reached the tower's base. Rui pushed open the doors which would lead into the dark tower's interior and the start of a massive climb to the spire, somewhere high above the strange clouds of this mirror world.<br/><br/>Except that instead, they found themselves standing on a wide open field. Kotori gave a few confused blinks at that; even stepping back to make sure she wasn't somehow imagining things - but to no avail. On the outside, it was a door which in the tower's massive walls - yet on the inside, it was a door in nothing with no walls for kilometers. Once the confusion over this impossibility subsided - at least partially - they proceeded onwards and into a trench. As they headed through it, they passed shadowy figures who would occasionally jump up out of the trenches but seemed to completely ignore the group.<br/><br/>Looking about, it was almost as if they had landed in the middle of a reenactment of a battle from World War I that they'd learned about in history class - with the minor differences being a lack of real people, the ever-present feeling of strangeness that accompanied the mirror world and the occasional out of place objects such as a filing cabinet among wooden crates or a modern folder laying next to some maps on a table they came across. As they walked through the trenches, Kotori glanced about; wondering if this place was supposed to somehow represent someone's mind - and if so, who would hold so much conflict inside them that it would turn into an entire battlefield.<br/><br/>With no immediate resistance making itself known, there was little left for the group but to advance through the trench and to worry just what they would be facing - at least, that's what Kotori was doing.</div>"

And not in a good way, either. Looking to the side, he was walking beside Kotori, comforting if only because she was as experienced as he was when it came to dungeons. In front of him walked Alexai, who hopefully had the brain to match the muscle, and Rui, their familiar leader. To Sato, this group was pretty much optimal as far as party composition was concerned.<br/><br/>	What wasn't optimal was, of course, the dungeon itself. After parting with the other half of the team (of which was lead by Kazuki and Megumi), they walked up to doors of the skyscraper. Fully expecting something hollow, desolate, and maybe even confined, Sato was shocked to see a wide-open battlefield, stretching seemingly infinitely. No walls or roof to be seen. Why this was disorientating was obvious. It was like they had walked into a whole different world, which, thinking about it, Sato decided wasn't actually too abnormal considering they were in the mirror world.<br/><br/>	It would've been arguably better than what he had expected, if the battlefield wasn't in use. Shots were being fired, and silhouettes rushed on the field above the trenches, only to be halted by the bullets of machine guns. It looked like a scene straight out of a history textbook, except that office supplies were littered about, contrasting with the out-dated military equipment. None of the shadows seemed to be targeting them, and as they walked through the trenches, it appeared there weren't any tricks being played.<br/><br/>	As the team maneuvered their way in the trenches, Sato's mind wandered to the dungeon itself. As was established, the dungeons had something to do with the victim, so what was with the skyscraper appearance, only to harbor some weird war dimension? The answer didn't come to Sato quickly, so he gave up and focused his attention on the situation at hand. He tried to glance at Rui, but the musculature of Alexai's back blocked his view. Sato would've just re-positioned himself like any normal person, but he felt an odd comfort being behind others. Call it cowardice or something else, Sato justified it by clutching the bow he held harder. Not like he was front line material any way.<br/><br/>	All he could do was hope that whoever he was following didn't fall into a pit trap.</div>"

It helped keep his mind off of... certain recent events. He sighed, frustrated with himself for little discernible reason- he hadn't figured out much about the counter-kidnappers, or the kidnappers themselves, so it wasn't like he could have done anything about this kidnapping, but he was still angry that it happened. Especially since, even three days afterward, he still had no concrete clues about the rescuers' identities. He had suspicions, feelings, hunches- but those were useless for his needs. He needed something more... solid.<br/><br/>He pulled a book off of the shelf, glancing at the cover, then putting it back in disgust as he realized he was too distracted by the case at hand to really care. Shame, really- it had been too long since he found a good manga bookstore. He'd almost given up hope of finding one in Warakuma. Perhaps this one was new?<br/><br/>He pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to will away his frustration. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">These kidnappings are getting to me too much.

While it looked better inside, it definitely didn't make her feel any less bored.<br/><br/>Though, that started to change the more they looked around. Everything seemed to be in tip-top shape and there was even a red carpet all rolled out leading further into the dungeon, as if it was expecting them. Well, considering all the strange crap they've been running into and how each dungeon tends to change, maybe the shadows as well?

Nothing really escalated or anything, but between the atmosphere and the battle raging above them, it just became more tense. Though finally they reached a clearing in the bunker network. It was a large area, looked like it was used for storage, upon arrival there were shadowy soldiers, just like the ones that were jumping out of the trenches from before. Based on them not attacking, would be safe to say they were allied soldiers...? It was strange considering shadows always attacked them instead. Although for the moment they would have to hold that thought, the a dozen soldiers began to pour in from the battlefield, they were dressed and coloured differently from the ones they were seeing up until now, and within moments the soldiers before them were gunned down by these 'enemy' soldiers... But quickly the party would realize that they were being shot at too.<br/><br/>Darting for cover behind the various crates, the party has entered their first battle in this dungeon.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Me and Alexei will take the left side, Sato and Kotori, take the right""</font>, he ordered. This was going to be a brief battle. On his mark, he had Alexei charge to soldiers with Rui's Persona as cover.

It almost felt like a controlling child who wanted only his own way. Was it some commentary on the one who was confined within this dungeon...? Regardless, Kazuki seemed quite focus, but also a little off... They weren't sure if he was like this normally, but he felt just as controlling as this dungeon was. The orders felt harsh for one... It was quite different to Rui commanding them.<br/><br/>Pretty soon though they would enter some kind of ballroom, it also looked to double as an entrance hall for a theater. Just as everyone was about to catch their breath and appreciate how nice everything looked despite it being a dungeon, jumping from the rafters far above them were armors, slim, wielding rapier blades, the gaps in their armor filled with what looked to be a shadow's slimy black form.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""magenta"">""Shadows... That armor seems to protect them. They seem to be vulnerable from behind""</font></span>, Megumi's analysis on these shadows was quick...

Then we will make short work of them... Cromwell!""</font>, he called forth his Persona. Just as one of the armored swordsmen charged, the Persona Cromwell grabbed it by the helm, and slammed it into the ground before Kazuki quickly followed up and struck the vulnerable back. The armor dismantled, and the shadowy form was vulnerable, allowing Cromwell to impale it on it's blade.<br/><br/>It appears striking the back will dismantle it's armor, rendering it vulnerable to any attack... That was simple enough, but one had to be fast, or have the brute force to force it to make itself vulnerable like Kazuki had shown here...</div>"

No one seemed quite sure if they might not suddenly turn on the group - a tension which only grew further when it seemed that those shadow soldiers were too getting more distraught as they continued.<br/><br/>Finally though, they came to an area where the trenches widened into a storage area of sorts - at least, that's what Kotori assumed given the large number of crates, boxes and occasional office chair all about the area. Again, they found the area to already host some shadowy figures - but again, thankfully, they seemed to ignore the group. However, just moments after their arrivals, another group of soldiers crested the top of the trench sides. These were different from the others in clothing and colour - perhaps soldiers of the other side, whoever these sides might be? This suspicion was confirmed when these dozen soldiers made short work of those in those in the storage area - Kotori winced at the sight, even though they were just shadowy figments of another's imagination.<br/><br/>However, any concern for the soldiers quickly turned to concern for the group and herself when these soldiers turned out to not be inclined to ignore them. Running behind the nearest sturdy-looking crate, Kotori hid behind it for cover; much like the others. Rather than just sit things out in relative safety though, Rui quickly took charge and ordered an attack - Alexei and he would go left whilst Sato and Kotori were to take the right side. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was Kotori's immediate response - before she remembered that these really were just shadows rather than real men with real rifles. Quickly she then nodded before taking a calming breath - and then extending an arm: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime</font> she called as she clenched her hand into a fist.<br/><br/>As ever, the presence of her persona seemed almost calming. Looking over to Rui and Alexei, the former was just about to give the signal to charge - leading Kotori to glance over to Sato to see if he too was ready before they started their attack. As Rui's Askr led the attack, Kotori peeked around the crates; picking one of the soldiers for a target before speaking: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime...""</font> She hesitated for a moment before calling for the attack - but then spoke anyway: <font color=""green"">""Zi... onga!""</font> And with that, Kikuri-Hime drew the flower in her hands close to herself; her eyes briefly flashing - before a thundering boom washed over the area as a wide streak of lightning crashed into the soldier; more powerful than her previous uses of such a lightning attack - leaving Kotori herself surprised long enough to look between the smoking ashes and Kikuri-Hime only to remember just in time to duck back behind the crates as the soldiers in turn brought their attacks to bear.</div>"

The air felt tighter, even if nothing seemed particularly different. Soldiers lingered around, though they didn't attack the party, just like the ones that had been fighting and getting shot all around them a minute ago. Sato considered this, noting their passiveness.<br/><br/>	The thought was interrupted by a burst of activity, as suddenly more shadows entered the clearing, mowing down the ""good"" shadows before pointing their weapons at the group of persona-users. It took only a single bullet whizzing past them for Sato to bolt behind some boxes. It was foolish to think that this would be an easy ride with safe shadows. Rui gave his orders, and Sato nodded. With his and Kotori's magic combined, this would be an easy fight. Even if he got wounded, Kotori was there to heal him. Which begged the question, if Kotori got hurt, could she heal herself...?<br/><br/>	Ignoring that thought (she probably could, right?), Sato summoned his persona, a gust of wind already generating. He peered over the crates to find a target, and with the swing of his arm, Chronos launched a powerful blast of wind at one of the soldiers, tossing it back with the force. He glanced over at Kotori to see her doing the same, with her own persona summoning a bolt of lightning to hit a soldier. The flash left his eyes stinging a bit, and as he was distracted, a bullet grazed a strand of his hair. The sound and feeling of the bullet caused Sato to send himself to the ground.

She could only hope for the best with the other members of the party though, may their feet carry them well. As the four entered the building, Ayano summoned Dantalion and a familiar computer console appeared before her, unfortunately though, it would seem that the screens would have to load for a few seconds before getting actual video feed from the party's perspective and when it did, a shocked expression adorned the girl's face.<br/><br/>The interior of the tower was definitely not what she expected it to be. Then again, with this hellhole of a dimension, what are you going to expect? From her screens, she could see that the inside of the structure looked like a war-torn battleground, it looked like something straight out of a History book...Yet, in the distance she could also see office equipment?

That begged the question though, what kind of war is this? Who are they up against? Is it a revolution? Answers would come eventually, but some exposition would be nice...<br/><br/>Eventually, the party had made it to a military bunker retreating into the safe haven as the war continued to rage on. Another curious thing was the fact that the bunker they had entered had more of those Shadow Soldiers, yet they were passive and did not mind the presence of the group. So it would seem that not all shadows are bent on murdering everything that they come across...The reprieve however was soon broken as a platoon of enemy Shadow Soldiers made themselves welcome in the bunker, easily gunning down the passive soldiers the party had encountered.

Even though they were taken down relatively quickly, their guns were also pretty painful, almost like real guns, so that required the party to take cover if there were soldiers present. Still, they were taken down quickly.<br/><br/>Ayano upon having scanned them, suddenly got information on the location of the rest of them, and it didn't look good. Displayed by her Persona, she was looking at a map of the whole dungeon, and the indicators she picked up which were these shadow soldiers seemed to start swarming in. The map showed that there was a way out, and it was up ahead. No matter how strong or how quickly the party might take these shadows down, there were just too many of them, plus there didn't seem to be an end.<br/><br/>The only option was to go on ahead, and fast.

Once the armor was off, the shadows moved faster, though they seemed to not be able to take much damage at all. As the unarmored shadows backed out in an attempt to run, the other shadows jumped in to cover their allies escape. Swiftly, Kazuki jumped over them with his Persona, and rained lightning on one of them, before landing into position to strike the other one. His move was guaranteed to take them down, but it put him in a bad spot, on the other hand, he was also now in position to strip the armor off of the other two that charged in early.<br/><br/>The one he tried to take down after hitting the first one with Zionga was now out of range, sighing out of annoyance he simply turned and slashed away the armor of the two behind him, exposing them for the party to take down.</div>"

Additionally, the guns the shadows had seemed like they acted like actual guns. As in, a direct hit might be a little too much for Kotori to heal. Hopefully that wasn't the case, but he wasn't about to try to find out.<br/><br/>	As Sato crouched behind boxes, with bullets ripping holes in them, he waited impatiently. Sure, he threw out a Garula once in a while, but without any kind of area of affect, his attacks hardly made a dent in the horde of shadows.

Luckily though, it seemed that with Sato and her attacking the shadows, Rui and Alexei had enough of a distraction to charge in and take out the soldiers with their close ranged attacks. Their attack thus lulling, it allowed for both Sato and herself to peek out again and use their respective attacks to take care of any stragglers; making short work of the entire squad.<br/><br/>However, there was little time for them to breathe easily - as just a moment later, Ayano sent her rather worrying telepathic message; informing them of the very real threat they were facing. And indeed, a quick peek out over the trenches did reveal a sizeable number of shadowy enemies rushing towards them. Though they'd managed to take out the previous group, Kotori too had strong doubts whether they'd be able to take down so many more - but luckily, Ayano had already mapped out the way for them; leaving Rui to press onwards immediately. Given the sheer number of enemies, Kotori didn't have any intentions of sticking around any longer than necessary and was quick to follow; running as fast as she could as she frantically looked about to see if any shadows were trying to attack them and, between sharp breaths, calling out for Kikuri-Hime to send down a bolt of lightning onto them as Rui and Alexei cleared the path immediately ahead of them of any would-be obstacles.</div>"

In moments the party found themselves in a frantic sprint as soldiers began to drop down into the trenches behind them, and soon they saw the door at the end of the trench. Rui was the first to reach it, pulling it open before entering it along with everyone else, and then there was a silence following the slamming of the door.<br/><br/>The party turned to see what they had just entered... The immediate thought was a prison, as if the steel bars and cells didn't give it away. Everything here seemed to be in some depressing gray, and the sounds of a child crying or speaking some words near inaudible could be heard amongst the silence.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I'm convinced we're not in a tower...""</font>, he said.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Well, let's keep moving.

They were soldiers from the last area. They were very timid, didn't even attempt to fight, not to mention they were unarmed, but pretty soon the party came upon a door at the end of a long hallway of cells... ""Solitary"". It was open. With nowhere else to advance, they opened the door and stepped into the darkness, and with an echoing click, the lights within the room switch on, and towering above them, was a gigantic shadow in prisoner wear. Handcuffed and unable to attack correctly, the party managed to roll out of the way of it's clumsy advance, but everyone felt it. That power was no joke.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Another shadow... Ayano, start scanning""</font>, he said. As he examined the shadow, he also noticed a door behind it, though locked by chains, it looks like this shadow was barring their way forward.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Play of Control - F1 &gt; F2<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/>Everyone's attacks were dispatching the shadows fairly well, but it didn't change they were still outnumbered. Between Akane's Kill Rush and Noboru's own fists, they weren't reducing their numbers quickly enough, but pretty soon the whole room was ablaze as Matt summoned his Persona and unleashed a Maragilao, decimating all of the shadows that were exposed, and exposing the ones that still had their armour on, which were quickly dispatched by Kazuki.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""Great! I don't detect anymore, good work""</span></font>, the party eased up a bit after hearing that they were clear for the time being.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Alright then, let's keep moving""</font>, Kazuki said, leading onto the next area.<br/><br/>The party came to a set of stairs, with a sign pointing up those stairs, it appears these stairs lead to the theatre according to the sign. It was quite obvious this is where they had to go to advance, so they did, and pretty soon they were walking down the theatre's seats after opening the double doors to them. The stage in front had some dancers upon them, and the seats around them were near empty, but shadowy silhouettes that did nothing would be seated in some random spots... As soon as the party got close to the stage, every single pair of eyes turned to look at them.<br/><br/>The dancers on the stage stopped, and by their eyes too, they were also shadows. Suddenly, a ramp formed at the center of the stage in front of the party, and the floor below them moved quickly like a conveyor belt, until the party was at the very center of the stage, surrounded by the four dancers. It was obvious what this was...<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""Four shadows... They seem fairly strong. I'm detecting that they each have different weaknesses. Matthew, the one nearest you is weak to ice, but the one next to it is weak to fire...

Rui opened it as he got there first, and everyone piled inside. A jarring silence fell over the team when the door slammed shut, nothing but the breathing of four teens.<br/><br/>	Sato straightened his back, looking around to see where they ended up running into. It looked like some kind of prison, with all the dull grey bars and cells. As they stepped through the weird shadow prison, ""soldiers"" filling the cells, there would be a complete silence if it weren't for the occasional murmur that sounded like a child's voice. When he first heard it, Sato was convinced he was going insane, but when he considered that the others seemed to hear it too, and their current location, it became clear it was just another one of those creepy mirror world things.<br/><br/>	Eventually, they got to the end of the hallway and reached a door labelled ""Solitary"". It didn't take a genius to figure out this was the ""correct"" way to go. Correct in quotation marks because nobody actually wanted to go in there, an unlit solitary confinement cell. But they of course had to, and when they did, the lights soon flicked on with a click. Sato reeled back, not because of the lights, but because of the shadow towering over them. It was colossal, decked out in prison wear. Luckily, it had massive handcuffs on its arms, making its charge at the group less than graceful. Everyone dived out of the way, though even though they could dodge it, he could feel the power behind its attacks when it collided with the wall.<br/><br/>	Rui called for Ayano to start scanning it. Just waiting for Ayano to tell them what to do wasn't exactly a reliable strategy, so Sato summoned his persona and drew an arrow from his quiver. Nocking it into his bow and pulling it back, he aimed up at the shadow. Right before he let the arrow fly, Chronos imbued the arrow with some kind of dark purple light. ""<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Poison Arrow,</span></span>"" He muttered to himself, right before releasing the arrow. It whipped straight at the shadow's side.</div>"

As if the loud noise had drowned out everything else or perhaps even deafened them, Kotori only noticed the odd silence after several sharp breaths from the run up to the door. Furthermore, she was worried at first that the shadows might try to break through the door - but not a sound came from the other side or, for that matter, this one. Glancing about did not exactly serve to lift her mood however - instead, she saw that they had gone from a wide open battlefield to a somewhat dimly-lit prison complete with cells all along the walls.<br/><br/>Peering inside the cells, Kotori immediately feared that the shadows within might come out and attack them - but instead, they barely even roused themselves from their sullen demeanour as the group slowly started traversing the prison. The uncertainty of what to expect combined with the dreary grey that was all about them left Kotori nervously looking about - the fact that this place was rather sparse on lightning not at all helping her nervousness; to the point that she even started imagining faint sounds. However, when she realised that the others seemed to be looking around confusedly too, it became apparent that those faint noises - children's voices, on closer inspection - weren't just in her head. That, however, was not very reassuring; even if Rui gave to command to continue onwards.<br/><br/>Despite the rather creepy atmosphere though, nothing ever seemed to come of it - even as they arrived at a door leading into what looked like a large room. It was difficult to tell though, as there were no lights whatsoever illuminating it; only the barely-sufficient light of the hallways they were still in shone some clarity on the immediate entrace area. Taking a deep breath and stopping her hands from nervously fiddling as she clutched them to her chest, Kotori followed the others into the room - after all, there was no other way forward, no matter how little she liked the look of it.<br/><br/>She almost jumped in frightened surprise when the lights flickered to life with a loud clacking sounds - and again when she saw the huge figure standing in the middle of the room. Clad in black-and-white striped prison wear and enormous handcuffs binding it, it was certainly fit its surroundings - but there was no time to think what it might mean as the creature did not take kindly to its surprise visitors and immediately started to charge at the group. Kotori hastily ducked and ran aside as did everyone else - before a thunderous boom echoed throughout the room as the giant collided with the wall; unable to correct its path or come to a stop with the hindrances that were its cuffs. The impact was so great, Kotori could even feel it - though she wasn't certain if it was the sound resonating or the floor had actually shook a little. Either way though, that was not an attack she wanted to get caught in - or anyone else, for that matter.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori called even as she ran in the opposite direction of this giant - she didn't want to stay too close to it after seeing its destructive strength after all. Rui called for Ayano to begin her scan whilst Sato used the brief moment the giant needed to recover from its own attack to loose an arrow at it - Kotori however hesitated to attack; first checking to see that everyone else was still in good condition whilst keeping a nervous eye out for any attacks from the enormous shadow prisoner.</div>"

As they traversed the prison, there were numerous Shadow Soldiers that just looked sad and frightened, and for a moment the girl couldn't believe that of all the things to make her feel sad it was a shadow. That sadness came to an end with anxiety overcame her when a cell labelled with <span class=""bb-i"">""Solitary""</span> was met by the party, beyond the door Ayano could feel a presence, one that was filled with malice and power...She wasn't sure if it was <span class=""bb-b"">THE</span> shadow already but judging from their time in the dungeon, it would be a far cry from it. When the door opened, the only thing that Ayano's screens picked up were pitch black. For a moment she thinks that it was an error or fault of her Persona, but no, it was something more terrible than that...<br/><br/>The lights flickered on to reveal towering shadow in the usual prison wear, similar to the ones they saw before. Despite its restrained state she could feel that this thing was not to be underestimated. With Rui giving orders, Ayano quickly began to scan the giant, tapping her keys<br/>One of her screens showed the back of the giant, a red reticle pointing directly at it and beeping. Her left screen displayed that it was the glaring weak point of the monster, but how can the party strike it when it keeps darting and weaving? She looked back at the center screen, clicking at the image of the shadow and analyzing it carefully, the girl noticed a distinct key that could be struck and the loose shackles of the boss. With a grin, Ayano immediately relayed the information to the party.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""The giant's weak point is its back. It's moving a lot so I think you should restrain it with its own shackles! I'm not sure about the key though...""</font></span></span></div>"

The key was... Well, the key. It looked a little loose, but with a few hits it might lock the restraints. It was a pretty strange kind of handcuff honestly, but it looks like it worked like that.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I'll strike the key, the rest of you focus your attack on it's back""</font>, he ordered. With that he darted in first, with a Sukukaja, letting him swiftly dodge it's next unfocused attack, and position himself by the key. At that point he let out a barrage of attacks alternating between his own blade and Askr, before jumping again, and plunging down with his Persona's attack, Mighty Swing.<br/><br/>The shadow heaved and then fell, suddenly unable to properly move. It seems those restraints were connected to it's legs too, but as it fell, it began to struggle, and the key began to fiddle around.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Quick! It looks like it might free itself if we take too long!""</font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Play of Control - Stage<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/>Akane's attack did a fair bit of damage, but no elemental attack meant it stayed on it's feet. Despite how strong Vile Assault was, it wasn't enough to do any significant damage. She was going to need to follow up with someone who had struck a weakness. Meanwhile, Matthew managed to repel the dancer and cause it to fall to the ground, putting him in position to pummel it again.<br/><br/>Kazuki had successfully figured out the one weak to lightning and began work on it, on the other hand Noboru's attacks were missing, before he was suddenly hit by a bolt of lightning and forced on his back foot.<br/><br/>This seems to be a fairly simple fight, but should they focus one at a time? Or continue the way they are...? Kazuki seemed too focused to give any kind of order like that, however the shadow he was focusing was sufferring, and would soon shortly be destroyed.</div>"

Luckily, no one had actually taken such an attack head-on, but Kotori feared that if the fight dragged on ever longer, the fatigue would leave someone to slip up eventually - a prospect she was not very eager to see the results of. This was not exactly aided by the fact that she shadow seemed to be mostly shrugging off their attacks without much sign of wavering, as befit something of its size - at least until Ayano's voice telepathically reached them; her scans having finally detected their opponent's weakpoints.<br/><br/>Rui immediately put himself forward to take care of the literal key component of this fight whilst everyone else should ready themselves to exploit the opening thereafter. Though she thought that deliberately putting oneself in the path of this giant did not exactly sound very healthy, it seemed the only way - and just in case things didn't go to plan, she kept herself and Kikuri-Hime ready to cast a healing spell should the need arise. Luckily though, Rui managed to slip out of the way of the charging shadow and instead bring himself into a prime position to strike at the key. Between the strikes of both him and Askr, the key was driven into the shackles; causing the shadow to briefly tense up as the restraints tightened around its arms and legs before falling forward with yet another crash.<br/><br/>Rui barely even needed to call out for the rest to press their advantage before a barrage of attacks was loosed upon the prone giant as Alexei, Sato and Kotori all turned their focus on it. <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori called as she extended one arm toward the exposed back of the creature. A bright flash and roaring thundercrack immediately followed her next word as she cast what offensive magic she had: <font color=""green"">""Zionga.""</font> But despite the evident increase in strength compared to Kikuri-Hime's initial offensive capabilities, she still remained worried whether it would really be enough to put down the giant for good; readying herself to either heal any would-be retaliation or quickly vacate the path of yet another charging attack.</div>"

Well, it doesn't matter considering his opponent looks like it's about dead anyways.<br/><br/>Either way, considering this isn't the boss, and considering their opponents don't seem to be that strong and the fact these aren't the bosses, it would be awfully boring to simply gang up on them. After all, she needed to get her fill of fighting before they wrap things up with the dungeon.

It wasn't until Ayano finished her anaylsis of the shadow did they finally have some kind of plan. Now that Sato looked at the shadow more closely, he noticed the key sticking in its cuffs. Rui had the greaty idea of just kind of hitting it.<br/><br/>	It worked through, because, through Rui's barrage of attacks boosted with the swiftness of a Sukukaja, the key seized up the shackles. The shadow fell to the ground, a tremendous crash, as it was too restricted by the now tightened shackles. As Rui ordered them to attack ASAP, Sato took note of the key's fidgetting. If they hadn't locked it early enough, could the shadow have opened it further? That would of been scary to say the least, considering the amount of power they felt behind its attacks.<br/><br/>	Regardless, it was their time to strike now. Sato summoned his persona, swinging his arm in an overly dramatic fashion. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Chronos!</span>"" He breathed, and a violent gust of wind struck the shadow.

The shadow heaved over, the key just barely keep it restrained, it was time for the final blow. Rui charged straight at the shadow, summoning Askr as he did so, the team loosed another volley of spells at the same time, synchronizing the attacks with his charge, slashing the shadow across the chest with a Mighty Swing. The attacks found their mark and the shadow was defeated, slumping to the ground before disappearing into a black mist, like all other shadows.<br/><br/>Ayano's navigation would tell her that the room ahead was where she was sensing their rescue target, whoever it was. After everyone caught their breath, they wasted no time to keep moving.<br/><br/>As they entered the doors that led to the final room, or rather, it led first to a hallway. They spotted a hallway leading left. Ayano fed them information that that was the pathway she picked up before they entered the dungeon. Apparently it leads to the other dungeon... Convenient, strangely so, but there was no use questioning it. If they were done soon enough on this end, they could immediately go and reinforce the other team.<br/><br/>Regardless, the party moved onto the final room... What they saw before them was an office, more specifically the warden's, it said so on the door. It was a pretty spacious office too, big enough to fight in without worry... The party looked towards the center of the room, and there their target was, sitting there... There was no mistaking that hair, Rui recognized who it was. It was Ryan, from the manga club, and as expected in front of him was his shadow.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Play of Control - Stage &gt; Backstage Penthouse<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/>After a grueling battle, the party finally managed to take down all the shadows, it took quite some time, so they were worn out...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><br/><font color=""magenta"">""Maybe you should take a quick rest first...

Kazuki wasn't exactly the best leader, but he was a great fighter, very self-driven. He jumps into the thick of battle often, it might just be a different leadership style, because Riku who is one of his usual party mates seems to do the same... In any case, after resting the party got back up again, and headed backstage. There was no other way forward, other than what appears to be back stage doors. It first led into a well-lit hallway, looked a tad fancy, still old fashioned like the rest of the dungeon though.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><br/><font color=""magenta"">""Ah...

Who did this to me, how did I get here?”</font> His words began getting faster as he slowly processed the situation around him. He felt himself sitting down and he began to get up, but was pushed down by a blurry figure in front of him. He heard laughing coming from the blurry assailant and felt hands on his shoulders keeping him down. The assailant was talking, but it sounded weird. Like there were two voices talking at once. Ryan then began to focuse on the actual words that were being spoken.<br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">”Wow, I can’t believe I’m really this annoying. This is just dumb.”</font> Ryan’s vision cleared up and he finally got a good look at his assailant. His eyes widened and he began sweating in fear. <font color=""steelblue"">""It took you this long to figure out who I was? Jesus, you’re stupid!”</font> There, was a perfect clone of Ryan, standing right in front of him with an annoyed  expression on his face.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">”W-what!? Why do you look like me? Who are you!?”</font> Ryan was beginning to panic and his eyes were darting all over the place.<br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">”I am a Shadow, the true self.

I’m you obviously!”</font> The doppelganger took his hands off of Ryan and turned towards the group of Persona users, grinning at all of the people who showed up, laughing a little as well. <font color=""steelblue"">”Oh look, we have an audience! How wonderful! They get to see how pathetic and weak we are! But let's focus on us right now, they don't matter.”</font> The Shadow giggled a little more and focused his attention back to Ryan.<br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">”Yes, we’re very pathetic. Always trying to make friends, form bonds, get to know people. And after all of that, we just let it get snatched from us, we move away to FUCKING CHINA! AND THEN JAPAN ON TOP OF THAT!

It took a few deep breaths and laughed. <br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">”But that’s in the past. Now is the time for decisive action. Or decisive inaction in this case. No more BS. We tried to make friends, we failed.”</font> The Shadow shrugged with that statement and adjusted his uniform, trying to straighten out a few wrinkles on his sleeves.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">”What’s that supposed to mean?”</font> Ryan asked as he began to get up out of his chair.<br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">”It means give up obviously! That’s what you want right? Why bother, you don’t have a choice in the matter. Everyone sucks anyways, you hate their guts, why bother being “friends”.""</font> The Shadow made airquotes with his fingers as he said friends. <font color=""steelblue"">""It just results in utter misery!”</font> With this statement, the Shadow pushed him  back into the chair, doing so dramatically.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">”Shut up! That’s not true, I like people!

You know that you’re barely even trying. You literally RAN from an opportunity to make friends. You hate people.”</font> At this point the Shadow was grinning with glee as he leaned over Ryan. <font color=""steelblue"">”You wanna know how I know that?”</font> The Shadow tipped the chair over, knocking Ryan out of it.<br/><br/>He sat back down in it and his face returned to a bored looking stare. <font color=""steelblue"">”Because that’s how I feel. I. Am. You.”</font> The Shadow shrugged and stared at Ryan.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">”NO YOU’RE NOT! You’re nothing like me! I don’t run away from problems, I want to make friends, I want to try to be the best I can be! SHUT UP YOU FAKER!”</font> Ryan's eyes were full of tears and he had a angry expression on his face.<br/><br/>The shadow began laughing quietly, progressively getting louder as a dark aura began to emanate from it. Ryan’s face morphed into one of primal fear as he got up and backed away from the Shadow.

The key was precariously close to turning however - but with Alexei's heavy blows, Sato's howling wind and Kotori's lightning strike, the enemy was soon reeling. Rui, however, seemed to see this as a chance and chose to go in for the kill rather than play it safe - which, luckily, paid off as the slashes of both his and Aksr's swords brought the enormous shadow down; much to the relief of Kotori who had been afraid they might have to once again try to dodge an enraged shadow's hefty charges.<br/><br/>Taking the moment's respite to catch their breath - something Kotori was most thankful for - Ayano wasted little time in scanning ahead and soon enough informed them that their target was nearby and up ahead. Though still breathing a little more quickly than she'd have liked, Kotori nodded nonetheless when Rui checked to see if everyone was ready to press onwards - she didn't want to slow everyone down nor leave whoever was caught in this whole dungeon mess to have to stay at its mercy any longer than necessary. As such, the group soon headed out - though not before Ayano informed them that a hallway to their left would lead to the other dungeon. Given the ever more bizarre architecture of these places, it didn't even seem all that strange anymore - instead, Kotori was just glad to have at least some convenience for once which would make it easier for either group to aid the other should the need arise.<br/><br/>Once again, they came to a door - this one leading to the warden's office, according to the words upon it. Peering inside before they stepped through, it seemed rather spacious - not that dimensions seemed to matter or make all that much sense most of the time - and as such they entered the room. Kotori nervously glanced about, though she found nothing to warrant it - before settling her eyes on the person in the middle of the room. The figure seemed familiar once again - but she only recognised the prospective Agriculture Club member on a second glance, seeing as he'd only very briefly showed up before vanishing just as quickly.<br/><br/>However, he was not alone - standing before him was once more a doppelganger of sorts which had just noticed the party's arrival. Much as before, the shadow - which was which was not hard to tell from the sheer venom in its voice - began to speak, nonchalantly speaking of Ryan's past. However, the shadow's voice quickly grew in both volume and anger and before long was practically screaming as it spat out words of resentment at his parents. Uncomfortable at hearing another person's secrets being laid out without their consent, Kotori didn't know whether to listen or not - though the voice of the shadow made it hard not to either way; especially when its words about running away from other people sounded more than a little familiar. However, she looked up again when Ryan suddenly shouted at the fateful words that the shadow was not him.<br/><br/>A dark laugh resonated around the room as shadows converged on the other Ryan; signalling its transformation into a more monstrous form - or rather, the room's transformation. It seemed to draw in the shadows of the office's back wall; tearing it apart in doing so - and revealing behind it an enormous humanoid figure; much like their previous adversary but even larger still. It too was clad in prisoner's clothing and much as before its arms were clasped in cuffs. However, there was little time to be taken aback or wonder about any meaning as the shadow wasted none in pointing at the party - which the giant seemed to take as command and brought a fist crashing down. Everyone only barely managed to get out of the way as the ground itself shook and the huge fist even left a crater where it had struck the floor. Kotori was increasingly anxious whether her healing spells would be able to undo the damage from such a devastating attack - or, for that matter, whether she'd be able to withstand one herself.<br/><br/>However, now was not the time to dither and worry - instead, she simply had to prevent that possibility from occurring in the first place; even if that thought sounded a lot less confident that she might have liked. Rui meanwhile had already ordered Ayano to scan the smaller figure of Ryan's shadow and then told them to split up - not a bad idea, considering the sheer strength and area of attack this giant possessed. Taking up position roughly in the middle left, she quickly glanced about to make sure everyone else was definitely uninjured before focusing her attention on the giant - were it not for the calming presence of both Kikuri-Hime and the other three group members, she wouldn't feel even half as confident. Now, however, she decided to focus on dodging any incoming attacks and, if necessary, heal any incoming damage whilst anxiously awaiting the completion of Ayano's scan.</div>"

They weren't exactly strong but had quite the endurance, while it went on longer than she had hoped, it gave Akane quite the work out and let her blow off some steam. With the fight over, Megumi suggested that they'd rest, which she was more than happy enough to agree to, though, she didn't particularly didn't like that last sentence. Akane wasn't exactly fond of people getting involved in her fights without her say in the matter.<br/><br/>With a sigh, she got off the ground she was relaxing on and stretched. With the team having finished resting, they headed backstage and came some backstage doors which led to a well lit hallway. According to Megumi the hallway to the right lead to the dungeon the others were in. <span class=""bb-i"">So they're directly connected, hmm?</span> Kazuki, having calmed down from earlier, led them upstairs where they found a door leading to a fancy suite, there they found their target. She didn't know this one as well but apparently he's a member of the Drama club.<br/><br/>Shortly after the show, as usual, the shadow transformed, though to be honest, the change was quite underwhelming. It got kind of strange when they noticed a wad of cash in it's hands. <span class=""bb-i"">Shadows have their own currency now?</span> It got even stranger when another shadow appeared soon after and was handed the money with more shadows appearing soon after. <span class=""bb-i"">What is this, some low-class gangster movie?</span> According to Megumi, the shadows are quite strong and from the sounds of it, the main shadow boss has some kind of shadow summoning ability. In short, this battle is going to be a pain in the ass if dragged out.<br/><br/>With not knowing exactly they were dealing with, Kazuki made the call for them to take the battle slow and be cautious until Megumi finishes scanning them. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Well, in that case...""</span></font> Summoning Setanta, she called for a <span class=""bb-b"">Rakukaja</span> to raise her defense to ready herself for the long haul.</div>"

The next area was a hallway, in typical video game fashion it was empty and could obviously lead into nothing else other than the boss room, judging by the little information tidbits her screens were giving her, this was the pathway from before, but it also lead to another dungeon? She scratched behind her head, first it was World War with Shadows and office equipment, then it was Silent Hill 2's prison level, what was next? Her thoughts were answered when the party came to a door with the words <span class=""bb-i"">""Warden's Office""</span>. Beyond that door she could feel an ominous presence, one that was more powerful than the giant before it, there was no doubt that the person they were sent to rescue was behind this door, as well as their shadow too.<br/><br/>Steeling themselves for the upcoming battle, they entered to see a wide-open office space, yep this just screamed <span class=""bb-i"">""Boss Battle Area""</span> all over it. In the center of it all was...Ryan? Ayano couldn't believe it, it was that Ryan kid from the Anime and Manga Club! And obviously, his shadow was there, taunting him with words that were pure and utter exaggerations of the bitter truth, it wasn't long before Ryan's temper couldn't hold back his aggression and shouted those three words, triggering the transformation of the shadow. Ayano gulped as she prepared for the worst, what were they going to fight this time around?<br/><br/>What greeted the party was another towering giant that looked like it could easily crush the party under it's hands, a feat it demonstrated by creating crater with its fists. Accompanying this shadow was a smaller one dressed in a policeman uniform, looks like big boy takes commands from the little one. Nodding at Rui's request, Ayano begin to tap away at her keyboard, her screens shifting focus from the fight to both of the shadows, a big yellow danger sign was displayed across the screen with the giant shadow, displaying that it was invulnerable to damage. On her right screen however, the policeman was very much weak and susceptible to pretty much any attack the party might throw at it. However, judging from the feed she was receiving on her center screen, the behavior of the colossal giant made it apparent that it protects the smaller shadow from harm. Without hesitation, she began to send the information to the party.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#1a7b30"">""The smaller shadow is pretty puny, I bet if you guys pile on it, it'd fall in a matter of minutes.

He rushed in, Askr appearing beside him, and deliver a decisive hit as the rest of the team threw their strongest attacks at it. With a thump, it evaporated into a black mist when it hit the ground, and that was all she wrote.<br/><br/>	Sato took a moment to catch his breath before following the rest of the team down to another set of doors. Rui, ever the leader, threw them open, and they were greeted with a hallway. Another hallway branched off to the left, which Ayano informed them was the passage to the other dungeon, if they ever needed to go there from where they were. Sato wondered if it meant anything, like if the victims were connected in any way. There was, of course, no way of truly telling, especially since they didn't even know who the victims are.<br/><br/>	Through another set of doors was what seemed to be a dead end labelled the ""Warden's Office"", but upon noticing the two teens standing in the center of the room, Sato knew it was quite the opposite. Sato didn't recognize the boy, but he assumed at least one of the others did. As expected, the victim and his shadow were arguing in the same way everyone else did, including Sato himself. He listened to the conversation, barely picking together the boy's past. Sato's expression grew grave as he quickly realized that the boy's mental state was deteriorating fast, and that meant...<br/><br/>	When it transformed, the familiar suffocating feeling of a person's shadow filled the room. The back wall blew apart, and as did the roof, dust flying. From behind the shadow came a colossal version of the shadow, who remained standing in front of it. Similar to their last battle, chains were attached to the giant's wrists, but they didn't seem to constrict it nearly as much as it had the last shadow. Almost immediately, the gigantic shadow's fist came crashing into the ground, Sato just barely getting out of the way with a dive. A crater was left behind as the fist slowly lifted, visual proof of the sheer power behind the colossus's attacks. <br/><br/>	Rui commanded Ayano to start scanning the smaller shadow, and ordered the rest of the team to fan out. With the team split up, it'd be unlikely for it to target more than one person at a time, which was good for obvious reasons. Sato stood to the right of Rui and opposite of Alexai, meaning he was the furthest away from Kotori. Before he could contemplate the dynamics of that team positioning, Ayano's voice started explaining what she found out about the shadow. Predictably, the smaller one is about as strong as any of them, while the larger one was practically invincible. If the only thing protecting the smaller one was its puppet, then they just needed to distract it so someone could get in and do some real damage.<br/><br/>	It was probably going to be much more easily said than done. Sato summoned Chronos behind him, watching the shadow carefully, occasionally glancing at Rui. Their best bet to stun it was to concentrate their attacks all at once, like they had done with the last shadow. Sato was ready to sling a spell as soon as needed.</div>"

They weren't going to get it to move on their own power alone, other than Alexei, none of them had anything that could deal enough concussive damage, so they needed some momentum to work with. And pretty soon, the giant would go for another strike,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Now!""</font>, he yelled, as he swept around to the side, and struck at the giant's hand with a Mighty Swing.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Play of Control - Backstage Penthouse<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/>A defensive strategy would soon become a bad idea, as the party's fight went on. Even as they slew one shadow after another, another one popped up in it's place, Kazuki alone was able to take on the swordsmen fairly easily, it was fencing they fight with, something he was quite familiar with it seemed, and along with his Persona, he could easily go for cheap strikes as if he was double teaming someone. The large bodyguards were a pain since they protected the main shadow, while the gunners and the ladies pelted with bullets and magic from the back. It was annoying, and they could replenish on their own... Noboru's head on tactics and Matthew's magic didn't seem to be enough, because the gunners would shoot Noboru off before he could get a hit in on the bodyguards, and the magicians would block Matthew's magic attacks.<br/><br/>They were going to need some real level of coordination here. It appears the shadow hands out money to the other shadows as if hiring them too... Maybe they could try and prevent it from handing more money over? But with those bodyguards, getting a clear shot would be a little difficult...</div>"

Sato rushed to the side andwhipped out his bow, his persona behind him creating a wind storm to guide the darkness-imbued shot straight into his target, a mixture of both a Garu and a Poison Arrow. The shot hit a split second before a flash of lightning lit the room, the crack of thunder. Combined with Rui and Alexai's physical assaults, there was no doubt in Sato's mind that they could do this. Unfortunately, as much as he would like to have been ever on point, Sato took a moment to pick himself back up. The wind around him took a second to dissipate as he jumped up from the floor from whence he dived to. Being cool had its price, and that price was ending up flopping against the ground.</div>"

Though without at least temporarily taking the former out of commission it would likely be somewhat difficult to actually land a strike on it - which meant that they somehow would have to stun, disable or otherwise distract the enormous shadow. Neither of those ideas appealed all too much to Kotori as she looked between the shadow giant and the crater it had left in the ground.<br/><br/>Thankfully though, Rui spent less time fretting and more waiting for the most opportune moment - as Kotori anxiously kept an eye on the slow raising of the giant's fist for another strike in order to dodge a potential attack in time, the group leader declared that they should strike in time with it in order to unbalance the huge foe. Kotori gave a quick nod as she took a deep breath and prepared for Kikuri-Hime to unleash a Zionga attack on the mark; hoping she'd be able to make at least some difference in the devastating attack's course when the time came. At Rui's cry, Kotori released the lightning strike; a thundering crack echoing as the bolt struck the giant's fist just as Sato shoot the bow, Alexei threw his attack upon it and Rui's Askr struck a Mighty Swing at it. Kotori hesitantly hoped that it might be enough with the combined strikes - if not to unbalance the giant, then at least to shift the path of its attack away from any of the party members.</div>"

With a flick of the wrist, Sato commanded Chronos again. This time, a circle of light lit up beneath the shadow, exploding into hundreds of cards when a strike of lightning hit the small warden.

The party was assaulted once more, Sato and Kotori were forced to back away while Alexei jumped forward, finally intersecting with one of it's fists, holding it with his Persona. Rui didn't waste time thinking about what was just happening, a burst of green wind surged around him as he cast Sukukaja on himself, and jumped over Alexei and run up the giant shadow's arm, his Persona flying behind him as his blade was unsheathed, both Persona and user slashing the path in front of them. As he reached the shoulders, the shadow was leaning back onto that arm in pain before Rui leaped up above the shadow's head, sheathing his sword mid-jump, doing a side-roll as he came back down, his Persona following his move as he severed the giant from head to wherever it met the ground.<br/><br/>The giant fell back into the abyss, and now all that was left was for Ryan's resolve.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""The rest is up to you Ryan""</font>, he said, sheathing his sword.

That's no way to live in my opinion. And as for mom... yeah, she took me away from everything, but she also gave me the chance to start a new life.

He clenched his hands and looked up at Rui, preparing some questions. <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Where exactly am... I?""</font> He began to ask, when he suddenly felt very tired.

It looks like things were okay here... Rui got a report from Ayano that the battle in the other dungeon was still ongoing, and a bit of a struggle too.

For until the final moment, it appeared as if it would work... But the shadow in the chair simply clicked it's fingers, and one of the swordsmen instantly appeared to it's side and intercepted Kazuki's attack. It was infuriating. Lashing out, he slew the shadow right there, but it left him open, and he was blown back by the bodyguard's massive figure.<br/><br/>Rui upon arrival was seeing a rough battle, but with some extra hands they ought to be able to beat it now.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Are you okay Kazuki?""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Do I look okay...?

However, if he gets heaped up with speed and power, he can possibly clear out all the swordsmen, gunners, and lady shadows, leaving the bodyguard weakened in the crossfire, then they can end it in one fell swoop.</div>"

Unfortunately, however, this quickly turned out to not be the case at all as the small shadow really did buckle beneath the hail of magical and physical attacks - but rather than cause the enormous shadow behind it to dissolve, this only seemed to anger it. Tearing its shackles apart outright, it immediately took a swing at the group, sending Kotori fleeing as quickly as she could out of the way of its enormous fists; narrowly avoiding being struck. A frightful moment passed when she looked behind herself and saw that Alexei stepped right into the path of the giant's attack - but then, together with his persona, stopped the blow mid-swing.<br/><br/>At first, Kotori was just left to blink in disbelief at the sheer disparity of sizes between the giant and Alexei - but she quickly recovered when she saw him straining to contain the massive enemy's power even with the aid of Prometheus. <font color=""green"">""Diarama,""</font> she called to Kikuri-Hime - but just as the healing light enveloped Alexei, the shadow gave a bellowing roar. Looking up, she only saw the aftermath of Rui's attack - Askr's dealt the final blow to the shadow as Rui leapt down and landed safely; the shadow slowly falling backwards and dissolving into nothingness as it did so.<br/><br/>Kotori breathed a sigh of relief - once again, they'd managed to defeat the shadow without any serious injuries. As Ryan, encouraged by Rui, stepped forth to speak with his reformed shadow, she used the moment to catch her breath. And as she did, she once again felt more than a little awkward at being present to hear another person talk about their inner secrets as Ryan, spurned on by the events that had transpired, elected to give other people a chance rather than just shut himself off - which brought a small smile to Kotori's face when she remembered the circumstances of her own shadow. With Ryan's acceptance of himself, the shadow began to glow before transforming into a knightly figure, armed with a rapier and clad with a single wing before dissolving; leaving Ryan to turn to Rui for answers - but that would have to come at a later time as, like most of those before him, the strange fatigue overtook him.<br/><br/>But before they could celebrate a successful rescue however, Ayano informed them that the other group was still facing stiff opposition - leading Rui to send Alexei and Sato to bring Ryan to the hospital whilst she would accompany him and aid the others. Luckily, Kotori had managed to recover from the exertion and quickly nodded that she was ready as Sato headed off with Alexei who carried Ryan; an almost comical sight given the difference in stature between them if circumstances weren't so dire.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Play of Control: Backstage Penthouse | Sunday</span><br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime, Media,""</font> Kotori called, a little out of breath once more, after arriving on the scene and seeing the beat-up state that everyone seemed to be in after the long battle they had found themselves in; hoping to ease any pain the might have and let them fight on more effectively. It seemed that the enemies were simply re-appearing whenever they brought them down and thus never quite managed to take enough down to make an real attack upon the main shadow; much to the displeasure of most of those present it would seem, given their rather frustrated faces.<br/><br/>A quick nod from Kotori followed once more as Rui ordered Kazuki, Matthew and herself to keep the shadows busy whilst he, Noboru and Akane would prepare something to take them down. Drawing on Kikuri-Hime once again, Kotori summoned a lightning bolt down upon the first shadowy minion to draw near; a thunderous crack accompanying the bright flash even as the continued fighting was starting to feel increasingly physically taxing despite being mostly magical in nature.</div>"

With them here, it looks like they have already finished on their end. While thankful for their aid, Akane couldn't help but feel disappointed that they needed their help after all.

At the same time, Rui had been using Sukukaja on himself too, and once that was done, he began.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Immediately after my attack, swarm the bodyguard and the shadow""</font>, he ordered. There were a lot of them here, six of them in fact, meaning this was going to be a brutal follow-up. Soon it was time, and Rui charged forward, summoning his Persona, and with one swing of his blade, the Persona rapidly flew across the room all over, slashing the entire area with a mighty Gale Slash. The buffed version did some real work, instantly destroying the squishier gunners, mages, and swordsmen, leaving only the bodyguard.

No longer needing to focus on defeating the enemies just to gain some breathing space, everyone had enough time to prepare some buffing spells for which Kotori was rather thankful. Akane strengthened everyone's offensive power whilst Rui was the target of multiple buffs, culminating in a wide Gale Slash by Askr that ripped through the various shadows with ease - so much so, in fact, that all but the burly bodyguard were destroyed in that strike; leaving the rest of the group free to attack it - and the main shadow if they could take it down quickly enough.<br/><br/>As Rui called for the attack, Kotori gave a quick nod before pointing Kikuri-Hime at the bodyguard. After a deep breath, her call for <font color=""green"">""Zionga""</font> was immediately answered by an even louder than usual thunderclap as Akane's group-wide Tarukaja amplified the lightning bolt to a great extent - so much so that it left Kotori blinking in surprise; looking between the bodyguard and Kikuri-Hime - and she could have sworn the latter shrugged ever so slightly before they focused back on the task at hand.</div>"

They wanted to talk about why there were two this time... Was it because the cult was picking up their activities? Unfortunately, Kami wasn't present today, still investigating, but likely he may have some answers for them. Kazuki walked away from all this less than pleased. It appears he was not used to these more difficult scenarios, seeing as he handled the previous dungeons okay whenever he participated, but this one seemed to try him.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">???<br/>21/6/2015 Sunday</div></div><br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh3FgVv24-0"" rel=""nofollow"">""Welcome, to the Velvet Room""</a><br/><br/>Ryan's vision began to return to him, but before him was something far unfamiliar, the gentle track of an opera singer being the second thing he heard. All he saw was blue, then as his vision sharpened, he began to make out a table, chairs, and a long nosed man at the other end. There were silhouettes seated at each table, only one was clear... He didn't recognize this other person, wearing an attire that appeared to be from an era a century old, with a cravat and all that. In any case, he noticed that he himself was in a simple suit, or rather, tuxedo. He had a bow tie after all. It was unusual, but he felt he could get used to this.<br/><br/>On the other end, Seighardt's consciousness began to return to him too, and before him was a room of nothing but blue, tables and chairs possibly fancier than the ones he was once used to, which was quite certainly something. He noticed another silhouette seated a ways off in a tuxedo, but he didn't quite recognize this person. He looked down and noticed he was wearing a surcoat with a cravat, it was a brilliant blue in design too. It felt only a little strange to him, but he rather liked it.<br/><br/>Eventually, the two would bring their eyes to the one in front, the long nosed man.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a place between mind and matter, dream and reality.

An arcana that represents relationships, in modern times has become the symbol of a strong bond between two as the name suggests, lovers, but it may also refer to one's relationships with other people in general...

The team surged forward and struck out against the shadow as it desperately attempted to wave another fast stack of cash into the air - but between the magical attacks, ranged fire and melee attacks being rained down upon it, it had no chance. Sent flying from the last strike, the shadow and its chair exploded into a shadowy mess - and then reformed once more into a more human form, if one excepted its unnaturally golden eyes.<br/><br/>Kotori meanwhile was simply glad for the brief respite to catch her breath. A single dungeon was already draining enough - but a second right afterwards was really pushing her stamina. She hoped that these double kidnappings were the exception rather than the rule - or, worse yet, that it was only a sign for further increases. Either way though, she looked up between deep breaths as Rui encouraged the kidnapping victim - Sieghardt, as he'd called him - to accept his other self. The shadow meanwhile began taunting the boy anew - but this time, it did he did not fall for its tricks. Instead, Sieghardt agreed.<br/><br/>Judging by his words - which Kotori once again felt rather awkward to be listening to so uninvitedly - he seemed to be from a rather well-off family. However, that had not exactly brought him much joy or friends; at least none which wouldn't call themselves such without expecting something for themselves in the future for it. A small sympathetic smile came across Kotori's lips when Sieghardt declared to no longer rely on such false friends but rather to seek out some true ones - it seemed that no matter one's circumstances, people always were in some way afraid of rejection or solitude.<br/><br/>As she did so, the shadow smiled - before beginning to glow in a by now familiar bluish light; signalling another transformation from shadow to persona. Sieghardt's was a princely humanoid clad in fanciful clothing, wearing a half-mask over its face and holding a one-handed scythe of sorts - Saturnus. Turning around Sieghardt seemed a little confused for a moment - uttering some words before the all-too-powerful fatigue overtook him and he slumped over. With matters thusly taken care of, two more members of the team were assigned to bring the unconscious boy to the hospital. The rest briefly met up at the warehouse - but without any real leads and Kaminari not being present, there was little left for them before heading home on their separate ways; something Kotori was a little bit thankful for after the entire ordeal.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Monday, June 22 2015</span><br/><br/>The ringing bell signalled the end of the lesson; the teacher reminding everyone to make sure to finish up their exercises for the next class before dismissing them. As the usual buzz began - students discussing their afterschool plans, heading to other classrooms to meet their friends or just packing their things - Kotori was left finishing her notes once again before checking them over. She gave a small nod in passing greeting when anyone said goodbye as they walked past her second-to-front row seat on the way out before she too packed her books and, with a by now mostly empty classroom around her and similar hallway ahead, headed out without having to deal with the usual afterschool rush out.<br/><br/>As she walked down the hallways, Kotori considered visiting the newest kidnapping victims in the hospital - but remembering the uneasy feeling she got whenever she had to visit that place, she decided against it. She felt a little bad for the selfish decision - after all, she'd been pleasantly surprised when so many people had come to visit her. With a small sigh she continued onward nonetheless.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Agriculture Club | Monday, June 22 2015</span><br/><br/>A faint knock could be heard from the Agriculture Club door, albeit barely.

Unfortunately, it did end up retaliating anyway, forcing everyone back as it swung fists. Alexai managed to stop it for a second with his persona, and in that split second Rui jolted in a blur of green, delivering a decisive blow straight down the shadow's center, the explosion of metal that was his attack blowing the giant back into the abyss it came from. With that taken care of, the smaller of the two shadows dissolved into its previous state of being, with the victim himself being the only one that can fight left.<br/><br/>	The dark-haired boy appeared from behind the group and walked over to his shadow, Sato feeling the weight of the bow and arrows hanging on his back as he watched the cultist's latest victim confront himself. With no connection to this guy, Sato didn't know what to think about what was said between the two, but the air felt a little lighter when he said those words...<br/><br/> <div class=""bb-center"">""<font color=""steelblue"">I can change.</font>""</div><br/><br/>	The boy's shadow transformed into a stoic figure, a blue saber at its hip. A persona, to be exact, and that meant another member to the team. Sato hurried over to the boy's side just as he started to fall, and with Alexai's help, lifted him off the floor. The two third-years looked at eachother and then at the other two team members. ""We'll take him to the hospital,"" Sato said, ""You guys should go help the others.""<br/><br/>	As he and Alexai carried the boy out back through the eerily vacant dungeon, Sato reflected on what had been said. ""I can change..."" He muttered to himself, feeling the taste of those words on his tongue. That's the same kind of sentiment he'd had when he faced himself back then. Was it really possible to change everything? Sure, he could change himself... but what about the people he'd hurt? The friends he'd lost... could he fix that? Before long they found themselves back in the real world, the fresh air revitalizing Sato's tired body. Alexai volunteered to take the unconscious boy over to the hospital, and Sato was left standing in the dim warehouse where the left-over members of the team waited, along with their navigators. By the looks of it, it didn't seem to be over for the other dungeon team, but Sato could only hope they were alright.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . . . .]</span></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><a href=""https://youtu.be/MsFNDf3fX1A"" rel=""nofollow"">Warakuma High, School Library</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">JUNE 22ND 2015, MONDAY<br/>Afterschool</span><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">Tap</span><br/> <div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Tap</span></div><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i"">Tap</span></div><br/><div class=""bb-center"">""Can you stop that?""</div><br/><div class=""bb-right"">""Oh, sorry...""</div><br/>	Sato considered going to visit the latest two victims at the hospital, but with no real connection to either, he decided against it since he'd just be adding to any crowding up. Besides, what would he say? 'Sorry that you got kidnapped and stuff'? It frustrated Sato, that they could only react to the cult instead of preventing anything. If they could just save someone before they got thrown into the mirror world, they wouldn't need to get hurt... Or, is it better that they survive through the mirror world...?

Nothing but blue everywhere, the floor was blue, the ceiling was blue, it reminded him of a song he had heard a while ago. But that wasn't even the strangest thing, that title went to the man sitting before him. He was even smaller than Ryan, with all the extra height seemingly going to his nose. Beside him was a very gorgeous woman with blonde hair, somewhat out of place in this strange place. Finally he noted his clothes, high quality and surprisingly, not blue.<br/><br/>The man introduced himself as Igor, he was the owner of this place, ""The Velvet Room"" it was called. Meanwhile the woman's name was Henrietta, a fancy name for a fancy lady. It was just then that Ryan noticed the other occupant of the room. A blurry silhouette he couldn't make out, all he could tell was that they were wearing a surcoat and cravat. Very nice.<br/><br/>Ryan blushed when his card was revealed to be The Lovers, but as it was explained he nodded. Made sense. The other person got The Star, which sounded much cooler to be honest. Henrietta walked towards him and the blurry person, giving them both keys before Ryan blacked out.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""royalblue"">Warakuma Hospital</font></div></div><br/><br/>Ryan woke up once more to the sound of repeated dinging and fingernails tapping rapidly on a nearby table. <font color=""royalblue"">""Who's phone is on?""</font> He asked as he blinked the sleep out of his eyes. Suddenly he was enveloped in a crushing hug as he finally realized who was next to him. His mom's eyes were red and puffy, normally perfect straight blonde hair disheveled, as if she hadn't combed it in a week. She looked him in the eyes with her own striking blue eyes and sniffed in a bit of snot as she tried to find the words to describe her worry.<br/><br/><font color=""steelblue"">""Who did this to you? Are you okay? Did they take anything from you? Do you need anything? On a scale of one to ten how much do you hurt?""</font> She shot off rapid fire as she grabbed him by the shoulders, letting go after the last question. <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""One second.""</font> Ryan said groggily as he adjusted to his new surroundings. He was in the hospital, a hospital bed to be more specific. He vaguely wondered if he had dreamt the whole thing, but no. He felt something in the back of his mind, a presence that he had felt earlier in that weird world. Persona. The word came to his mind out of nowhere, yet it felt very right to describe the presence as such.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Ok, no I didn't see them, yes I'm okay, no they didn't take anything, some water would be nice, and I'm just kinda tired. That's it."" </font>Ryan smiled at his mother's concern, it felt good after a month of her just being absent. <br/><br/>She nodded once and got up to go get some water, the clicking of her heels against the floor being the last thing she left behind as she went to grab the water. Ryan relaxed a bit, but flinched as a loud ding sounded off. The last thing she left behind was her phone. God that thing was annoying. Ryan tried to reach for it from his bed, but he couldn't quite get his hands on it. He sighed and resigned himself to having the constant dinging as his background noise for a while.<br/></div>"

She was relieved as the day ended but something was worrying her...during Lunchtime, she overheard Kami's classmates saying something about being absent and being quiet for a while now. Worry overcame her and she got out her cellphone as she walked out of the school gates. Rather than message Kami first, she picked out Akane from her list of contacts and messaged her that she won't be able to attend the club for the day, hoping that she could understand. With that out of the way, she then contacted Kami next, asking where he was and inquiring if he was fine. Her feet were walking with no specific destination in mind as she waited for a reply. The brunette stopped on her heels when her cellphone rang, and thankfully it only took a few minutes. Her eyes looked over the reply, the young man saying that he was at the park. Her eyes lit up, thankful that Kami was able to reply, and without another notice, she began to run towards the park.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#fff200"">Warakuma Park<br/>22/6/2015, Monday</font></span></div><br/><br/>Panting and heaving, Ayano arrived at the park as fast her legs could carry her, once there she began to search for Kami, and thankfully it didn't take long for her to see him sitting down at a bench nearby.

When she was facing him, she bowed and greeted him, saying that she had heard his classmates talking about not having seen him for quite a while now, she sat down beside him as she said that. The boy explained that he had a good reason for disappearing out of the blue, he had been poking his nose into new information about the cult and quiet honestly, she was intrigued to know more about what he had learned.

One particular student, unlike the rest, went at her own pace while she packed away her belongings into her school bag. Shizuka was about to start towards the agriculture club, one of her commitments during Mondays, when a pair of familiar faces approached her desk. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hey Shizuka! Nozomi found this new crepe shop at the edge of Shinza Shopping Square, wanna come with after your club meeting?""</span> An excited Rinko flashed a bright beam as she spoke, the other friend flashing a peace sign as if she earned some kind of victory for her find.<br/><br/>For a moment, the raven haired teen smiled and became excited along with them but was suddenly reminded by the thought of the manager, Kenji, asking for her to work more shifts due to summer break nearing day by day. With a discouraged frown, Shizuka replied, <font color=""violet"">""I would've very much loved to, Rinko-chan but I have errands I will need to tend to after my club meeting. Perhaps... this weekend?""</font> She sounded unsure in her response, but her friend took it as a positive response despite the uncertain tone.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Kay, it's settled then. This weekend it is!""</span> Before Shizuka could retort against the sudden pick of a date, Rinko's excited face was too much for her to say no to. With a nod, the fellow freshman accepted the invite before excusing herself to head to the agriculture club room.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Agriculture Club || June 22 MON: After School</div><br/>After parting ways from her friends, Shizuka made her way towards the club room before catching the sight of the female upperclassman at the door. Jogging slightly to catch up to her, the freshman greeted Kotori and the other upperclassman in the room upon entering along with her. <font color=""violet"">""Good afternoon, Shirohane-senpai, Harves--""</font>, Shizuka stopped mid sentence when she was suddenly grabbed by her arm and lead out towards the hallway without an explanation.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Se-Senpai?""</font> With her heart racing from slight excitement and nervousness, the shoujo delusional girl called out to Matt as he pulled her away from the club room. Once he came to a pause at the middle of the hallway with less presence of students, Shizuka nervously fidgeted with her face directed towards the ground. After the sudden rush which came to an awkward, nerve wrecking pause, even the girl felt anxious with what he wanted to tell her.<br/><br/>As she quietly listened to the male upperclassman speak, the raven haired teen blinked with flushed cheeks at the mention of 'going out' with him. The girl herself had not realized that they were 'official' but she supposed it was due to the fact that this sort of experience was all new to her. Thinking about it properly... Wait, they're <span class=""bb-i""> official</span>? <font color=""violet"">""Se-Se-Senpai, w-we-- I-I mean yo-you a-a-and I--?""</font><br/><br/>While Shizuka incoherently stuttered in a desperate attempt to confirm what he had just said, the other suddenly blurted out something that she could not quite catch, mostly due to his Japanese speaking being incomprehensible for a moment. Even the few students who had happened to pass by the scene turned their heads toward the upperclassman, wondering what he shouted out. It took a long pause of awkward silence until Shizuka picked up on the word 'date' and the word for a day of the week? <span class=""bb-i"">Date</span>?<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""E-Eh? U-Um, I-I would lo-love to...!""</font> At this point, Shizuka could feel her heart could burst from her chest and was this really happening?

He frowned, pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. This is insane. Cultists kidnapped him and threw him into an alternate dimension where his had emotions turned into a monster that tried to kill him. And then when he admitted that they were right, the bad emotions turned into a good monster that could fight for him. It sounded like a plot straight out of an anime or some JRPG.

He, in turn, seemed to have been deep in thought as well - something that seemed to be occuring more often as of late - as he only turned around once she had announced her own presence with her greeting; something he now returned. For a moment, she wondered if he was perhaps worried about the kidnappings - after all, Ryan had expressed interest in joining the club - before he spoke up again, asking if she'd seen someone.<br/><br/>It was at that point that Kotori in turn remembered overhearing him talking to himself not too long ago; leaving her to give an awkwardly quizzical look at his words - only for Matthew to stop mid-sentence when another soft voice spoke up from behind her. But before Kotori could as much as shake her head to answer Matthew's question or turn to greet the younger member of the Agriculture Club, Shizuka, a veritable whirlwind rushed across the clubroom, past herself and snatched up Shizuka; leaving Kotori to merely blink in surprise at the spot that Matthew had occupied just a moment ago before slowly turning to see the vacant spot from where she'd heard Shizuka's voice.<br/><br/>He'd said it would take only a bit - but that was long enough for Kotori to put the thought of what she'd accidentally overheard and the rather strange and flustered way of speaking together. Placing her her school bag beside the chair, Kotori proceeded to finish the watering that had so suddenly been interrupted; most content to wait for the two to return from whatever-it-may-be they happened to be up to - as it looked, there hadn't been any need for herself to worry about them, Kotori thought to herself with a smile upon her lips all the while.</div>"

Still, these two still needed their rest. It seems they would be discharged tomorrow and can attend school again the day after. Although with this meeting concluded, Rui gave the both of them his phone number before setting off.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""If you two need to ask any questions, call me, or try and find Kazuki or Kami, or anyone else on the team. I'm sure you guys can remember that some of our classmates are part of it too""</font>, as he said this, the two would properly recall seeing quite a few people at their 'acceptance' of their shadows. Regardless, after this, both Kazuki and Rui left the hospital for the park.<br/><br/>As Rui and Kazuki walked together, there was a tension of silence between them. Out of being proper, or that they simply did not have any kind of deeper relationship to have a chat, but soon Kazuki broke the silence.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""What do you suppose Kami has to tell us?""</font>, he inquired. Rui was uncertain, and he knew Kazuki was too. Kami made this meeting seem a little urgent. Maybe it was just a desire to get it off his chest and share the burden of information.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Who knows. I just hope it brings us closer to ending this. I can't even remember when I didn't have to think about anything but what game I was going to play next, or what textbook I had to study""</font>, he commented. Kazuki kept his silence, but pretty soon they came upon the park.<br/><br/>As Rui approached he noticed that Kami was not alone, Ayano was there too. At least it was someone on the team and not someone unrelated to it. Else they might have to find another place.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Am I interrupting something Kami?""</font>, for that brief moment, Kami was conscious to the fact that he and Ayano were together alone until Rui and Kazuki arrived.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Wha-? N-no... Uhh, no, we just happened to run into each other""</font>, he regained his composure. Even then he looked quite ragged, the way he moved wouldn't say so, but little details one could notice would tell.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Well, you made it seem urgent. So what's the news?""</font>, Kazuki asked.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Right. I guess I'll start by summing up what we've learned so far... First, it's that the cultists don't seem to know the true nature of the mirror world, that they're throwing people in there for one reason or another. I did a little sleuthing behind my father's back since he's assigned to this case. The cultist that was turned into the police station broke fairly quickly, and said that people were being kidnapped for ""salvation"". Police is still not sure if this string of kidnappings is related to the ones last year, since the ones this year, everyone so far that had been reported, returned quickly... Thanks to us""</font>, he took another breath and continued, it looks like he was getting to the new part.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""I found something... Strange. The Lady Asai that the cultist mentioned. I looked into it, there are only three people with the name Asai in Warakuma, two are students, one is an old lady who lives in the suburbs... However they are the ones who are alive, none of them have any involvement or suspected involvement with cults. Though I did find an Asai Serizawa, who closely fits the bill for involvement with cults. She was part of the currently suspected cult, ""Junsei Sekai Tensei"", or Perfect World Reincarnation. Turns out, she is the wife of the cult leader, she passed away two years ago, shortly before the kidnappings began. Now I'm explaining this, because what the cultist said in the interrogation would make more sense. They believe that the Mirror World, is their ""perfect reincarnated world"". Even though they've never been there, they're being told by the leader that these kidnap victims are ""chosen"" for the new world, and that their Lady Asai lies beyond as well. That explains why everything is happening...""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""So what's stopping us from finding this guy and ending this once and for all?""</font>,<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Well... It's because no one can find him. His home's been empty ever since Asai had died. I suspect he may be in the mirror world, another thing the cultist said is that he's never seen their leader, that he communicates from ""beyond"" or... Something""</font>, this all seemed strange, but this man hiding out in the mirror world made sense, but made no sense at the same time.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Hmmm... Well at least we know who we're looking for... Thanks, and good work... I think you should take at least one day to rest, you look ready to fall apart""</font>, Rui commented.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""I guess...""</font>, Kami sighed out of exhaustion before speaking again,<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Investigation is not turning much up anymore... The cultists must have a base of some kind, even if their leader ""hasn't been seen"", perhaps there we'll be able to find some clue to get to him...""</font>, with that all said Kazuki decided to say goodbye and left for his own devices. Rui left eventually as well, leaving Kami and Ayano alone again.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Star Drop Cafe<br/>27/6/2015 Saturday</div></div><br/><br/>The tables at this cafe were seeing a slow reduction in customers as lunchtime came to a close.

As Masahide began to leave, he was halted momentarily by a few adults, the two in front began to don masks before fully entering, Masahide noticing this turned in surprise before being grabbed by the two that were now behind him after turning his back to them, and was dispatched quickly.<br/><br/>In the cafe meanwhile, a scuffle broke out. Shizuka being the waitress attempted to serve as part of her job, but was taken quite quickly. Aiko was first to jump forward to action, for a moment he seemed to manage something, swiftly punching down one of them before the other smashed him over the head with a baton. As Shizuka was being taken out two of the men jumped for Mako who also fought back. Akari was largely frozen in fear, so were the other people in the restaurant, but pretty soon Mako was being dragged off and the cafe was left in complete shock.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Shinichi Residence &gt; Star Drop Cafe<br/>27/6/2015 Saturday</div></div><br/><br/><font color=""slategray""><span class=""bb-i"">""...

He was being quite frantic, did she mean a lot to him? Likely. He knew they were in the same club though.<br/><br/>""Get some rest, we're going first thing tomorrow morning"", with that, he had Matthew head to home while he made his walk home making calls. First Kazuki, then Kami, and then so on. Three people...

Was it perhaps the looming dark clouds? I had no clue, but most of the day went smoothly as it usually did, even receiving a rather high score for my last English exam. The thought of Harvester-senpai influencing me to better my English crossed my mind and I couldn't help but giggle. <br/><br/>The cafe started to finally calm down after the lunch time rush, giving me moments to myself to think about the date tomorrow. What should I wear? Should I fix up my hair? Will the clouds clear up by tomorrow?<br/><br/>I was too lost in my thoughts that I hadn't noticed or even given suspicion towards these group of people in hoods who seemed to have entered the cafe. I wouldn't have really thought anything of it at the time since the theme of the cafe for the week was RPG character classes. I honestly might have mistaken them for people dressed up as mages, even the rest of my co-workers greeted, 'Welcome home, masters!' like they usually would.<br/><br/>But we would soon find out that they had a different motive for being here. Has it been heavily raining for awhile now? I don't remember, but a bright lightning struck as one of them had disappeared. A hand from behind me had suddenly pressed a cloth against my mouth, and as if to keep me from resisting, a strong arm wrapped itself around my arms and waist. What was happening?! Attempting to struggle free nor scream proved to be futile as a strange chemical scent from the cloth was slowly but gradually drifting me off to the darkness despite the loud commotion among the rest of the people in the cafe...</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">WHACK.</span> Thud. <span class=""bb-i"">'W-What was that?', I thought to myself as I attempted to turn to see what had happened to my assailant, but my groggy body was about to fall.

Haven't heard that from you since your first day at work.""</span> <span class=""bb-i"">He chuckled a little before his tone seemed to have become serious.</span> <span class=""bb-b"">""I don't understand what's going on but we've got to get you out of here.""</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">My vision was blurred as I was being quickly lead towards the emergency exit while the customers and other staff had scrambled towards the front entrance. Just who were those masked people? What were they after? Could they be.... the cult from the rumors...?</span> <span class=""bb-b"">WHACK.</span> <span class=""bb-i"">I flinched from the sudden whacking noise ahead of me.</span> <span class=""bb-b"">""Hah, that'll teach them! I wasn't my own stunt double just for shows!""</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Kenji-san flashed a grin back at me after withdrawing his fist from the hooded man's face.<br/><br/>Walking away from the scene and into the quiet hallway towards the emergency exit, Kenji-san settled me down in the closet before whispering in a hushed voice,</span> <span class=""bb-b"">""Shizu, before we head to the exit this way, let me check if the coast is clear. We can't have you in your current state to run for it when something happens. I'll be back as soon as I can, alright?""</span> <span class=""bb-i"">I nodded slowly and hesitated as a gentle hand patted my shoulder as if to give me assurance that everything will be okay. The closet door was shut closed and everything was dark.<br/><br/>Will we be alright? Has anyone contacted the police yet? Why was this happening to us? I was lost in thought once more as the rain outside had become heavier and heavier with thunder and lightning as accompaniment. Kenji-san's steady and light footsteps paused as he raised his voice,</span> <span class=""bb-b"">""Just who are you people and what do you want from us?!""</span> POW. CRASH. WHACK. .... <span class=""bb-i"">After moments of loud scrambling noises, it had become painfully silent until a pair of footsteps clacked against the ground towards my direction. My heart must've been pounding loud enough for anyone just out of the closet to hear, my breathing becoming unstable and ragged.<br/><br/>It must be Kenji-san, right? There was no way a professional sentai actor who did his own action stunts could lose. ... Right? But if it wasn't, ... Will anyone come to help me? Father, mother, where are you...? Please, help me... Why aren't you ever there for me when I need you...? Harvester-senpai...

His normally stoic visage had been replaced with a idle smile for the past few days, causing some gossip about the school as to the shift in his attitude. He didn't care, nor did he take any notice. For once, he felt at ease with everything going on, but he kept himself diligent with his work about the town. Today however, was one of the days he took for himself- as he had promised Yamato he would. What better to do then to visit the Cafe that had been introduced to him?<br/><br/>	""<font color=""#7ea7d8"">Thank you</font>,"" He offered to the barista, bowing his head as he placed his payment- a sizeable tip- upon the counter. Without waiting for thanks or appreciation, he merely took his espresso and made his way towards the back of the venue. It'd been awhile since his last time here, and even now he could still remember the friendly soul that lead him here. She had gone out of her way- even to the point of humiliation to assist him... It slowly dawned upon the boy that this might be a chance to welcome another into his life as he had done with his cousin- though on much less forced terms.<br/><br/>	As the thoughts crossed his mind, Masa couldn't help but chuckle, taking a small sip from his cup before giving a content sigh. It was then that he noticed he wasn't the only one here, spotting a few others as well as Shizuka- merely offering her a nod if she noticed. However, she was in the company of another- and Masa dared not interject. 'Perhaps this is what they called a date?' He thought, unable to help the wicked grin that creased his lips as he watched out of the corner of his eye. It didn't last long, however, as the man finished his coffee and made his preparations to leave. Disposing of the cup, he made his way towards the entrance to the door- though stopping short as an oddly dressed duo stepped forth.<br/><br/>	'What the hell?' Masahide internalized his curse as his eyes glanced between the two oddities before him. Perhaps they were just in costume, or merely strange in their own right... 'No reason to assume the worst,' Masa thought, though nothing could shake his unease as he glanced about the room and those within it. The breaking point came when the men reached for what looked like a mask, prompting Masa to growl under his breath before recoling.<br/><br/>	'Who are they?!' He internalized, the palpable feeling of dread arising from his stomach. He then remembered hearing the rumors about cultists and their relations to the kidnappings... But here in broad daylight? They must be crazy... Without a second thought, Masa turned round to warn the others, though felt himself topple backwards as he felt the collar of his shirt ruffle from behind. He had no opportunity to correct himself, being forced back further into a few more people that he had not noticed at first. If it had been just the two, he might have had a fighting chance- lashing out with a savage right that connected and staggered one of the cultists, but when he felt the sudden pang of pain as the needle broke through the flesh of his neck, Masa knew his time was short.<br/><br/>	Already his vision had become blurry, unable to make out even the simplest of outlines as the figures before him became nothing but a blur. As he offered one last futile strike against his assailants, a heavy force struck the boy on the back of his head. With nary a sound, darkness overcame Masahide, as he slipped into unconsciousness.</div>"

Precious few of the pages had been filled up with what could only generously be called, ""findings"" on the nature of the kidnappings taking place in the city. He'd made connections, tangents, written down suspicions and whatever semi-pertinent information he could compile, but trying to connect it in a meaningful way was an exercise in frustration, not to mention it just made him look like a crazy conspiracy theorist. He had his hunches, his theories, but that was really about it. Nothing that would force anyone he confronted to tell the truth, anyway.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Of course, perhaps that's the problem,</span></font> he thought to himself. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I'm going about this the wrong way. It's not like I've tried asking directly yet.</span></font> <br/><br/>It was a risky proposition, with few guarantees of getting any legitimate answers, but it would be better than nothing. Certainly better than his rather non-productive sleuthing. If he was turned down or misled, it wasn't like he was losing anything, anyway- he still had all the information he'd already acquired. And even being denied could have beneficial information for him, depending on how the person he asked reacted. He nodded to himself. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">So, it's a plan, then. I find someone that I suspect is operating with the group, and ask them straight. Preferably someone who's been involved for a decent amount of time- Rui or Sa-- erm. Someone. Someone else.</span></font><br/><br/>He rolled his eyes at his foolishness before rising, fishing for his wallet in order to pay for his coffee, when something outside caught his eye. A movement, unnatural and violent. And then there were people in masks walking through the front door. And then they pulled out a variety of bludgeoning implements and other nasty-looking devices, someone threw a punch, and chaos ensued.<br/><br/>Two of them noticed Mako looking rather dumbstruck, and leapt for him. Instinct took over as the shocked look fell from Mako's face. His fists clenched.<br/><br/>His elbow flew into the face of the man on Mako's left, and judging by the sound and feeling coming from underneath the mask, something had been very broken. He turned smoothly, driving a fist into the gut of the person on the right, luxuriating in the pained gasp that escaped their mouth before whipping a forearm across the side of their head, sending them careening to the ground. His vision went red as the last logical part of his mind questioned why these idiots were attacking in broad daylight silenced itself. The logic didn't matter at this point. These were enemies. They were trying to hurt people. He would hurt them back.<br/><br/>Arms attempted to grab him from behind, and Mako reacted, his head whipping back, the back of his head colliding with the man's masked face again, eliciting a fresh cry of pain, before he sent an elbow smashing into his solar plexus. By this point, some of the others had noticed Mako making a nuisance of himself, and were moving toward him with cautious determination. Mako grimaced- even being skilled, the advantage in numbers would be his downfall at some point. He grit his teeth.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Fine, then. You want me? I'll make you work for it.</span></font><br/><br/>He ducked under the swinging baton of one of the kidnappers, driving his shoulder into the man's gut and throwing him back into a collection of chairs and tables. He then winced as he felt a hard blow across his shoulder blades, before a hand holding a cloth moved into his field of vision, reaching for his face. He threw himself backwards, backhanding the offending cultist across the face and trying to backpedal, trying to find a wall he could put his back to, to keep anyone from sneaking up on him.<br/><br/>No such luck. Another blow came to his right side- that was going to bruise. He turned, seeing the kidnapper rearing back with his baton for another blow. Mako caught the man's wrist as it descended, twisting hard, grinning savagely at the now-thoroughly abused man's cry of anguish before wresting the baton from his grip and beating him across the face with it. He didn't waste time seeing the bastard fall, leaping over him toward the other kidnapper coming to back up his partner, bringing the baton down savagely, smashing into his shoulder. Mako raised the baton again, sending a smashing blow to the man's side, and again, and again, beating the man senseless. He raised his arm for another strike--<br/><br/>And felt one smashing into the back of his head, sending his vision sideways. Before he could recover, a fist slammed into his gut, forcing his breath from him in a wheeze. He couldn't really see, disoriented as it was, but he could feel it as the kidnappers still standing smashed into him, shoving him up against the wall and pinning him. He struggled, but it was little use- he was still reeling from the blow to his head.<br/><br/>""Hurry up! <span class=""bb-i"">Hurry up!</span> Quick, before he gets loose again!""<br/><br/>He heard the voice rasping in his ear, before a rough cloth was pressed up against his mouth and nose, the chemical it was soaked in making his head swim further.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Fuck, fuck, FUCK!! No!! I can't... you can't... I have... to...</span></font><br/><br/>The color was rapidly draining from the world, his vision going dark as his struggling began to cease. As the darkness closed in, he laughed ruefully to himself.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">I guess I'll see... whether or not I'm right... one way or another.<br/><br/>...Guys. <br/><br/>...Please.<br/><br/>...Come... find me...</span></font></div>"

It took her a moment to realise that all it had been was her phone letting her know someone was calling which had interrupted her concentration so suddenly - and leaving her to feel a little silly for being so surprised. That feeling however was quickly lost when she saw who the caller was - one Shinichi, Rui. A sinking feeling began to take hold once again - given what had happened on the previous weekends, such a message rarely bode well. After a moment's hesitation, Kotori answered the call and found her fear to be entirely warranted - there had been another kidnapping. However, as Rui quickly explained the situation, the worry she'd harboured a week before too came to be when it turned out that this time around there had been three victims - and only took a turn for the worse when he mentioned that they knew one of them to be her underclassman and fellow Agriculture Club member, Shizuka.<br/><br/>Kotori was immediate in her agreement to meet up first thing in the following morning to mount another rescue - even if the worries wouldn't make for a very restful night.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Mirror World: Crossroads | Sunday, June 28 2015</span><br/><br/>Kotori was still quite out of breath from having rushed over to the warehouse as quickly as possible. Once there, she found both Matthew and Rui already present - the former looking rather worried and impatient to finally get going, understandably. It didn't take long for the rest of the team to arrive one after another - and those present didn't want to wait much longer for any late arrivals today, given the unprecedented scope of operations; including the two newest members Ryan and Sieghardt.<br/><br/>As ever, a brief shiver came over Kotori as she entered the Mirror World - no matter how many times she came here, she still couldn't get used to the strangeness that surrounded them at every turn. However, much like the times before, she pushed on nonetheless as the navigators quickly identified the quickest way to the kidnappees - and thereby leading them once again to a crossroads, splitting off into three rather distinct places: the Moritomi Home for the Disturbed, the Hall of the Slain and the Super Magical Runway. Kotori blinked at the rather odd line-up - not just because one of these seemed a bit out of place next to the others, but because she also recognised the name as that of one of her classmates, Mako Moritomi. Worries crept up once again - even if she knew them to be irrational, she couldn't help but wonder if these kidnappings had something to do with her, given how two of them were relatable to her.<br/><br/>Shaking her head to put the nagging fears aside as well as she could, Kotori focused her attention back to the matter at hand as Rui began to assign the groups. He'd be leading Matthew, Sato and Akane into the Super Magical Runway under Megumi's supervision whilst Kami would be the lead for Alexei, Riku and herself with Ayano's support. Finally, Tadao would be leading Chiaki, Ryan and Sieghardt to scout the third dungeon. Though Kotori would have liked to help with what by all accounts appeared to be Shizuka's captivity, she still agreed to the composition - after all, there were still others that were caught inside these strange places and these would be no less dangerous and therefore in need of everyone's abilities to reach, including her and Kikuri-Hime's healing spells.<br/><br/>As such, she'd given a slightly reluctant nod as they gathered everything they needed, made any last minute preparations and got ready to head out. As they exchanged some final good luck wishes and the like, Kotori gave a small bow to the group heading to Shizuka's aid before speaking. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... please bring her back safely,""</font> she said, the worried tone evident in her voice - even more so when, as she began speaking, she realised that saying such was really not all that necessary, given that that was the exact purpose for which they'd come here after all; leaving her to briefly fidget with her fingertips before quickly turning back to join her own group and give a nod to show her readiness to proceed onwards, lingering worries notwithstanding.</div>"

Three people had gotten kidnapped by the cult, and it took place in broad daylight at the Star Drop Café, or rather, the cosplay café. As Sato walked to the old warehouse, his mind immediately thought of the people he’d seen there… Shizuka, Kenji, Akira, Mako…? Were the latter two even regulars? Despite the circumstances, Sato found a bittersweet smile on his face. who knew that the cosplay café would come back to haunt him like this.<br/><br/>The team met up in the mirror world, at the crossroads from last time. Ryan and Sieghardt (who’s presence surprised him a little, but he barely knew Sieg so he decided not to talk to him) were there, new additions to the group. Did they have enough people if there were three dungeons, let alone enough navigators? Hopefully they had the skill, luck, and endurance to get by with whatever they got.<br/><br/>They walked further down the Mirror World path, only to stumble upon a square branching off three different ways. The dungeon labelled “Moritomi”, and the one unanimously agreed to be Shizuka’s, made Sato’s stomach lurch. His suspicions were confirmed. For the first time, he had actual connections to the victims. Two of the them, at once. It wasn’t like he could choose one to take on first, so he looked to Rui for the formations.<br/>As Sato expected, Rui wasted no time in dividing the team into parties. Sato was with Rui himself, Matthew, and Akane, and they were to lead the exploration of the ‘Super Magical Runway’.<br/><br/>Everyone broke off for a minute to get any last-minute preparation done, and just before they were going to start, Kotori approached Sato’s group to tell them her wish.<br/><br/>“Don’t worry.” Sato replied. “We’ll save her, no matter what.

All he knew was the bastards had gotten to Shizu, the person he wanted to keep out of this the most, on arrival he was prepared to fight through the police to the scene but Rui arrived while he was still simply panicking.<br/><br/>Remembering parts of the evening later, Matt thought on how distraught he must have seemed and how Rui tried to calm him down. He was in his room that was now even more of a mess from before he left, unable to sleep Matt kept thinking, trying to think of why, but no answers could come as the boy finally faded away into a dreamless sleep.<br/><br/>Sunday<br/><br/>Unsurprisingly Matt felt no better about everything than the night before, getting up early he was ready to go in moments and left for the warehouse as soon as he was prepared.

Instead he stayed put and listened to the groupings, of course it didn’t matter if he was put in another group he would have followed the same path anyway. <br/>After the groups were decided everyone made final preparations for the fights ahead, and Matt waited with his group until Kotori came over.

After the initial shock, Kami began to unravel just what exactly kind of evidence and data he had discovered, if it was as urgent as that Kazuki guy had asked then surely it must be something eye-popping.<br/><br/>As the boy told the three of them what he had discovered so far, Ayano felt a chill run down her spine...It was one thing to read an enthralling murder-mystery novel, or play a visual novel with a similar genre or premise, but to actually be part of such a thing was decidedly leaning towards the <span class=""bb-i"">""scary""</span> side of the spectrum rather than <span class=""bb-i"">""fun""</span>, or <span class=""bb-i"">""entertaining""</span>. The whole concept of <span class=""bb-i"">""salvation""</span> for the cultists reminds the girl of a series of games she had played before, the whole <span class=""bb-i"">""zealot's askew perceptions of paradise""</span> concept was a little trite but nonetheless scary when one were to think deeply about it. Were this a RPG, Ayano would be confused on whether they're the <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0072bc"">Law</font></span> faction or the <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Chaos</font></span> one. Kami continued with his report and Ayano earnestly listened, taking mental notes as best as she could.<br/><br/>Lady Asai...It was the name that one cultist said in Alexei's dungeon. She still couldn't believe her eyes when a shadow was summoned from that cultist, it was something out of a horror movie needless to say. Shaking her head, she returned her focus to the woman named Asai, who was apparently the cult leader's deceased wife and the Mirror World is their <span class=""bb-i"">""paradise""</span>, it sounds like something out of Silent Hill...Crazy cults, dead wives communicating through their husbands using otherworldly things, confronting the inner psyche and the monsters born from one's flaws, what next? Will Warakuma be covered in fog? Will they be entering a dungeon full of blood, rust and a certain entity with a shape for a head? And just when you think it'd be easy to just go ahead and kill the cult leader, he's sealed himself away deep in the Mirror World, just great. If that man didn't sound like an end-game boss, Ayano doesn't know what is. She's already calling dibs that he'll have two forms or something. And that concludes Kami's report, certainly a big chunk of data had been revealed to them, and if anything it did make understanding the cult an their motivation's a little easier. Eventually, Rui and Kazuki left, leaving Ayano and Kami alone once again...She breathed deeply and faced the boy, a small smile on her lips.<br/><br/><font color=""#007236""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">""Do...you want to get some ice cream?""</span></span></font><br/><br/>After all, he must be beat after all that investigating.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Ayano Wakahisa: <font color=""#fff200"">Mirror World - Crossroads<br/>28/6/2015, Sunday</font></span></div><br/><br/>No rest for the wicked, that's what it seemed like for the Investigation Group. This time, they had three victims chosen to go this <span class=""bb-i"">""paradise""</span> while the name's weren't exactly familiar to Ayano, she nonetheless felt a sense of justice that she just needed to save these three. When they had reached the crossroads, she glanced at the names of the three structures that they'd be facing...<br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Moritomi Home for the Disturbed""</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">""Hall of the Slain""</span>, and <span class=""bb-i"">""Super Magical Runway""</span>.<br/>Seeing the name of the last almost made Ayano laugh, she hummed the tune of <span class=""bb-i"">""One of these is not like the others.""</span> to express her surprise at the dungeon, but then one remembers that life and death are on the line. The brunette steeled herself, no matter how many times she's done it, she still feels a sense of uneasiness and anxiety whenever she has to summon Dantalion.</div>"

Walking into it almost felt like going into a large ruin in an RPG, the large stone doors, stone floor, and sculpted pillars gave this place an ominous feeling, nothing but cold stone with the occasional discarded junk. The statues sculpted into the pillars though had distinct features, as if they were of someone in specific, most guessed it was probably whoever they were going to save, but regardless the party continued.<br/><br/>""Ayano, do you sense anything ahead?"", he inquired.<br/><br/>Ayano's scanners would begin to pick up signals from the room they were actually in already, but something would seem off...

As soon as they entered the dilapidated hospital, they were already carefully inching every corner of every room. This hospital though didn't seem functional at all, graffiti everywhere, family pictures at each bedside, but upon closer inspection they were all the same... Every family member was scratched or blurred out, except for the youngest child.<br/><br/>This was a unnerving detail, especial since this place was so quiet. They'd already scoured a few rooms, but haven't encountered a single thing, it was unsettling, plus combined with the hospital atmosphere... It was almost as if they walked right into a haunted house of some kind...</div>"

Sato wasn't sure what to expect, but upon taking his first step into it, he got exactly what he expected. It was incredibly garish, with neons of the brightest colors in a crayon box. The name foreshadowed this kind of design, but even then, it was an eye-strain to say the least. And if this was the Shizuka that Sato had met, it also didn't make much sense to Sato. What kind of side of herself was she hiding...? Sure, she was an employee of the cosplay cafe, but this... was something different entirely. Never would he had expected such a place to be fitting to Shizuka.<br/><br/>	The 'Runway' part of the title made more sense when Sato realized they were standing in a large entrance hall with all the makings of a fashion show, stalls and mannequins filling the room with all sorts of costumes and outfits. As they made their way through the rather large hall, Sato realized he recognized some of the costumes, but only a few. They were from a videogame he watched Rokurou play once. What was it... Performa 3? Platformer 3? Purseowner 3? Something like that. The name escaped him. Ignoring the decor, Sato and the rest of the team continued through the exhibition center. <br/><br/>	Megumi informed them that while the coast was clear for shadows at the present moments, there were likely a cluster of shadows up ahead. There was no where else to go but 'up ahead', so Sato stuck close to the others as they walked forward.</div>"

She gave a grateful bow once more before hurrying back to her group and tried to put the worries aside in order to focus on the task at hand - rescuing whoever may be caught in the rather ominously-named Hall of the Slain.<br/><br/>Giving one last look as the groups split up into their respective dungeons, Kotori gave a brief bow as she silently wished them all the best of luck before following Kaminari's lead. By her side were both Alexei and Riku whilst Ayano would be covering the navigation duties for them. Kotori was rather thankful that she had these proven and reliable companions beside her as she nervously began to glance about the entrance that they drew close to. Crumbling pillars lined the path that lead to a large stone door; a sight that wouldn't be entirely out of place in a novel.<br/><br/>As the came closer, some of the ruined pillars began to instead show some semblance to craftsmanship about them - and as they reached the door, there was an induitable likeness carved into them, though their dilapidated state made it difficult to tell of whom it may be; though given the way that such places usually reflected their captives, it was likely to be the kidnapping victim or someone very important to them. The figures did seem vaguely familiar to Kotori, but she couldn't tell for sure - instead, she quickly shook her head lest she try to read too much into the weathered stone.<br/><br/>Having passed through the large door, Kaminari spoke up to address Ayano and asked for her to scan the surroundings. Luckily, they didn't have to wait for long as she could soon report back - with the rather worrying news that there were indeed readings in the very same room. Kotori quickly began glancing about to try and see where these shadows might be - only for Ayano to continue on and note that something was odd about these readings. They were neither moving nor being overtly hostile as usual - that sounded almost familiar as Kotori thought back to the strange dungeon that was an enormous tower on the outside but a sprawling open battlfield on the inside with shadows which had ignored them upon it. Was this case perhaps a similar one?<br/><br/>With the uncertainty surrounding their situation, Kotori couldn't help but feel nervous - though luckily, the three at her side all seemed to be far less fazed by all this; a small measure of comfort at least. Taking a breath to calm herself, Kotori instead prepared herself for the upcoming dungeon - and feeling the presence of Kikuri-Hime within herself as ready as ever did help somewhat to alleviate some of her worries.</div>"

Although it certainly lacked the charm of both of these things and went in a more ominous and unnerving direction, it's the Mirror World, so obviously something labelled <span class=""bb-i"">""Hall of the Slain""</span> would put up warning sirens, even that whole <span class=""bb-i"">""Super Magical Runway""</span> sounds just as dangerous despite its cheesy name.<br/><br/>Without any delay but still with some hesitation, Ayano summoned Dantalion once more, the blue flames surrounding her as she summoned the Goetic demon as it appeared behind her, various holographic screens appearing in front of her. She nodded to the party as they ventured into the dungeon, wishing them good luck. Not even a moment's pass did she already get strange readings on her screens, they didn't seem hostile but for how long until they start springing into action and tear the group asunder?

The lights around the mannequins dimmed, and as he turned to observe what was happening, all of the mannequins sprang to life, wielding their props as weapons, Rui found himself immediately blocking an attack with his blade, a mannequin wielding a colossal cannon with twin tails, but it was quickly repelled, everyone else seemed to be under attack too.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta""><span class=""bb-i"">""They're really fast...

As they moved along though, the features of this area became more and more worn away, though fortunately this dungeon was rather straightforward, go through some doors, up some stairs, through a hallway, it was all rather simple.

This would've been a boring experience if not for the occasional ambient sounds. Screeching noises that sounded almost like screaming, somewhat unintelligible words muttered in the distance, shadows moving where there should be nothing... Ever-stoic was Tadao in the lead, but it seems the atmosphere was beginning to get to him too, he began to look around more than when they started out.<br/><br/>Eventually they came to a ward. Except, it was in prime condition. The white curtains billowed to a wind that the party could not feel, with windows showing out to a pitch black outside, and a dim light from a source no one could see. With everything cleaned up though, this looked less like a regular hospital, and more like a mental ward. There wasn't much in terms of physical medical equipment, but more homely items, books, board games, and so on... A small lounge was here too... Though despite all that, the pictures on the shelves, were still the same as when they walked in. Whole family blotted out some way or some form, except for what appears to be the youngest child.<br/><br/><font color=""brown"">""We have no navigation, we should wait here for a bit until one of the other navigators contact us.

They should probably investigate this place...<br/><br/>So far from what they can see, the book case seemed to stand out a bit more, the TV by the little lounge was blinking at unexpected points, there was one bed with messy covers in comparison to the immaculate made other beds, and the wall on the back had even more pictures...</div>"

Worse yet was that the mannequins also literally sprang to life, as Sato narrowly avoided being hacked apart the head by one of them brandishing a katana. Sato retaliated with his persona, hacking it apart with a swing of its scythe. <br/><br/>	They were all surrounded by the horde of mannequins. They didn't seem particularly strong, but this was a game of numbers that they were easily losing. They didn't need to hit hard, just fast, and Sato couldn't really do either. So he sunk behind everyone, facing the door, letting the others deal with the bulk of the crowd while he knocked off anything closing in from the back. While it wouldn't be the end of the world if someone got hit by one of the mannequins, it's pretty likely they could, so Sato summoned his persona again, casting a Marakukaja. Just in case. It was as he did this, did Sato hear just how pissed off Matt seemed to be. Accentuated by his accented speech, Matt's persona set fire to the crowd of mannequins. The wall of fire pushed them back, ironically giving the team breathing room.<br/><br/>	Lacking anything like that, Sato merely drew his bow and launched an arrow. It whizzed past Akane's ear, cracking through a mannequin's head. Sato cringed when he heard the arrow snap, but it was accompanied by the sound of the mannequin's 'skull' breaking, so it wasn't all bad. Truth be told, Sato wasn't really aiming, he was just making sure to not hit the others. It worked out well enough, so he repeated after making sure there wasn't anything creeping up.</div>"

His Persona's Gale Slash would not be able to catch all of them, unless they were close enough, it's reach wasn't unlimited after all. Everyone kept a keen watch, and then in one final moment, he summoned his Persona, which only appeared for a mere second before the area around the party was swept up in a whirlwind of slashes. The mannequins now stopped in their tracks were blasted away by Matt's powerful fire Persona Kresnik with the spell Maragion, and after that, it was just cleanup. This little battle was not particularly difficult... But it could have been a lot more troublesome had they not had area of effect spells. They were just lucky they were properly equipped for this.<br/><br/>Beyond this room was a set of stairs, it seemed to lead up. This was the only way forward, so they took it.<br/><br/>The second floor was rather... Strange. It was darker, and the design looked more like a regular house, but it was of course suspiciously spacious, like these dungeons usually were. At the very end was a giant door, or rather, TV. What the party was looking at could only be described as a Let's Play of a dating sim game, but after awhile there were pointers that made it clear that the main character was a girl, as if the male subjects weren't a give-away that is. This area of the dungeon was a bit easier on the eyes, but eventually the progression on screen stopped, and the screen did turned perspective, now the party was looking through the boy's point of view, and there was a set of choices...<br/><br/>&gt; Embrace her<br/>&gt; Kiss her<br/>&gt; Reject her<br/><br/>Anyone here could rush to make a choice themselves, but... It's probably likely this was a little meaningless. Then again the area they were in had the feeling of playing a game in a dark bedroom... This probably had more meaning for the one they were rescuing than anyone else here. So what to pick?

Ryan tried to examine the TV, there was a remote, but the channels all were the same. Nothing. Just static and more static, and even more static. Tadao was examining the beds... Or rather, doing up the only unruffled bed, and found a picture. Unlike the others though, this one wasn't blotted out, but as he examined it for a few moments, he thought he saw a shadow flicker in the corner of the picture, startled, he dropped it.<br/><br/>The static on the TV that Ryan was looking at began to show a featureless face, black, with two round blank eyes, and a crescent curved smile, he wanted to look away, this was a pretty terrifying experience, but he couldn't. The longer he looked, the more that face began to become clear, the lines became savage, the flickering became faster, and within moments the TV burst, it's screen shattered. Everyone turned to the now destroyed TV, and inside it there was another picture... It was similar to the ones that were plastered everywhere, all faces blotted out except one, but this one had two that were not blotted out. Upon closer inspection, the eldest child in the picture had a noose around his neck.<br/><br/>Although what was most interesting was on the back, there was a name, ""Haku""... This dungeon felt more like an unravelling of a mystery than well, a dungeon... Nothing seemed to be out to attack them, no shadows, nothing. It was like they walked into a horror game of sorts. Still, the name might be a key of sorts, and perhaps related to the difference in picture on the front. Maybe there was a way forward in this room... It was like this room was giving them a way to identify the people in the pictures.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">One of these three <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/haru-nyan"">@haru nyan</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/diabolicalrhapsody"">@diabolicalrhapsody</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/takaru"">@takaru</a> should post.</div></div><br/></div>"

That didn't do much to diminish their strength though - but as they only came in small numbers, the party could easily press on. However, these few shadows they were facing couldn't possibly be all, Kotori worried. After all, Ayano had mentioned they were surrounded - she couldn't help but keep glancing around nervously, unsure if that flicker was yet another shadow or just a figment of her imagination.<br/><br/>Still, at least they hadn't come across anything too strong yet; the occasional scrape being easily healed and the resistance they did meet being quickly pushed aside. As such, they were progressing evenly through the ruins - which, as they pressed on, were becoming ever more dilapidated. Where the first door had been a grand stone affair, the next one they passed was made of rotting wood. The hallway they passed was missing stones and piles of worn-away rubble was strewn about their path. Occasionally, another few shadows might show themselves, but once again the combined offensive power quickly put them down. At one point, they came past a dining hall; its wooden table showing signs of rot whilst the once-fine silver which was laid out had taken on a dark brown tint.<br/><br/>The entire place seemed to have been ravaged by decades or perhaps even centuries of time - and together with the still-unseen host of shadows surrounding them, gave of a rather unnerving feeling which left Kotori glancing about ever more warily. Stepping into a hall - Kotori wasn't quite sure what to make of the layout of this place, though they'd mostly pressed on straight forwards - Ayano once again reminded them of the presence of the shadows around them. But try as they might, they couldn't make any of them out - unless the occasional flicker or hint of movement was actually real and not just her nerves getting to her.</div>"

She's played horror games alone before and had thought beforehand that she was used to such sights, but when it's happening in real-time, the terror escalates to a new height. Trying to steel herself, the girl turned her attention to the center screen, the one that displayed Kami's group and their surroundings. From the looks of her video feed, the dungeon seemed to look like an actual dungeon, similar to the ones used in times long forgotten, although something about the design of the place just seemed to fit a dystopian RPG-type of setting. The occasional shadows took on the forms of your typical undead, honestly it looked like they belonged to a session of DnD, if DnD involved teenagers travelling to the inner psyche of one's mind and battle the horrific truth of one's self that is.<br/><br/>Only when the Norse-looking shadow knights appeared did Ayano connect the dots about the dungeon's name...The place they were traversing to was Valhalla, or rather, a much more macabre and abandoned depiction of it. When games usually visualize Valhalla, they tend to put more...life and joy into it. Sure, dead guys having the time of their lives drinking and eating doesn't really evoke the brightest of imagery but it certainly would be a step up than whatever they were travelling to. The connection became much more apparent when the group had passed through a large dining hall, but it was just as abandoned as much as the rest of the dungeon was. You would think Odin would have better upkeep. Eventually they reached some sort of hall, and immediately the sensors in Ayano's left monitor began to blink. She turned her head back to the blinking monitor and saw that the shadows from before had surrounded the group. Hastily grabbing onto her headset, the brunette held her mic and issued her words of warning to the party. The situation they were in didn't look good, how does one fight that which he cannot see?</div>"

Immediately Kami raised his weapon, he expected nothing to hit it, but there it was, a chipped, sharp blade, held by a bony assassin skeleton. The shadows in front of him unraveled, until finally it was seen in full. The party was already surrounded, as the rest jumped from their shadows and attacked the party. The first order of business, repel the attack.<br/><br/>He summoned forth Zeus and surrounded the party in a Mazio. It didn't seem to do any significant damage, but it kept them from attacking for the moment... Five...? No, six... Seven of them?

However, nothing could be seen or heard in the murky shadows around them - but just as tension started to make way for confusion, with Kaminari being the first to voice his, a nigh-inaudible sound much like wind seemed to fill the air. It cut Kaminari off mid-word as he raised his weapon in alarm - just a moment before the blade, having cut through the air, impacted on it. The shadows peeled back, if only for a brief time, to reveal a skeletal figure to be holding the blade; glowing red eyes fixed on the third year.<br/><br/>Kotori, meanwhile, was rapidly glancing about in fear of another such sudden attack - and, worse yet, what might happen if the next strike wasn't parried just in time. Kaminari, however, was quick to act and summoned Zeus to cast a wide arc of crackling electricity all around them - some of the skeletons seemed to have been about to charge but were quickly discouraged by the unexpected counter-attack. None of them seemed to have taken very much damage - but at least the party wasn't under immediate attack for a moment; enough time to regain their bearings and prepare to meet any incoming attacks with Ayano's warnings.<br/><br/>Without any spells to directly aid her companions' fighting abilities or area-wide attacks, there was little Kotori could do beside wait for the inevitable attacks; though at least she'd be able to heal any wounds sustained or add some damage to any appearing skeletons. She nervously glanced about at any movement, any hint of those unnatural red glowing eyes or a hint of sound - but the only things she heard beside her quick breaths was, oddly enough, something akin to faraway wind; leaving her and the others to rely on Ayano's forewarning and their reflexes as they peered into the surrounding dark shadows that hid their foes.</div>"

Matt burnt the mannequins to ashes and pushed them back, and then Rui delivered a decisive blow to a majority of the shadows. Sato took out a few of the remaining stragglers with a few blasts of wind, and before he knew it, it was all over. It was almost disappointed, how easy they had it, but it would've been a whole 'nother story if it weren't for Matt and Rui. Sato flashed them a quick thumbs up before they head through the door they were originally trying to get through.<br/><br/>	Past the door were stairs leading up to the second floor. It was a sweet relief to Sato's eyes as the colors gradually died down as they climbed the steps, eventually stabilizing into a much more tame palette as they stepped onto the second floor of the dungeon. Or rather, it was a normal palette, darkened by the contrasting lack of lighting. As the group made their way down the hall, Sato noticed the design of the hallway appeared more like a house than a convention center. Presumably, it was modeled after the victim's house. Not like Sato would know what Shizuka's place looked like, but he could assume. The only other apparent thing in the hall was a 'door', but in reality it seemed to be a door frame filled with a screen that probably wasn't actually a screen.<br/><br/>	On the supposed screen was gameplay of some kind of otome visual novel, a genre Sato almost wished he knew less about. The scene went on for a while, the party standing around it to watch, until eventually the narrative of the female protagonist suddenly got cut off, only to be replaced with what Sato assumed to be the perspective of the boy they (or rather, the protagonist) had been talking to. The portrait of the main character appeared, though blacked out into a silhouette (to preserve the ability to project yourself onto the protagonist, Sato figured), as well as three choices. They were... basic, to say the least.<br/><br/>	And Sato considered them more than he wanted to. Rejecting her wasn't an option. Would kissing her be too far? Merely embracing her seemed too little, but there was no in-between... Looking to the others, Sato decided to share his opinion before anyone else could. ""I think we should choose to, um, kiss... her."" Though he regretted it a little.</div>"

Whilst Ayano could give them some forewarning, it was still a close affair everytime one burst from the shadows and struck out against one of the party members. Luckily, no one had been hit yet - but at the same time, the very limited amount of window of opportunity to attack the enemies meant that the group hadn't made much headway either. All told, it wasn't exactly the most comfortable situation that Kotori could imagine, even as she frightfully glanced all around in the vain hope of spotting a sign of an incoming attacker.<br/><br/>However, having put all her focus on that task had left her oblivious to the ever-mounting whistling sound from before. It was distinct from the sound of the blades being swung through the air or an elemental wind spell - unfortunately, Kotori didn't quite manage to finish the thought when all of a sudden a bright red flame erupted before her; only narrowly missing a skeleton that was sent sprawling to the ground by the sudden strike. Heat radiated off the sudden explosion and tore her from her thoughts; leaving her to close her eyes and quickly shield her face from the imminent attack - which did indeed occur just moments later.<br/><br/>Strangely enough, however, none of them hit. Gingerly peeking through one eye, she saw that all around the group the ground was ablaze; the flame strikes having damaged most of the skeletons and even killed a few - but most importantly, the light scattered the conealing shadows and left their foes open for attack. That, however, wasn't what caught Kotori's attention - instead it was the even more perplexing sight to which she was drawn by a drawn-out cry. It was not human in nature - but not frightening for it either, as it was instead the cry of a hawk; circling above - and accompanied by what she immediately recognised as a persona, even if her mind was scrambling to somehow rationalise it.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was her best attempt and therefore miserable failure at doing so - at least before movement from the corner of her eye caught her attention once more. A skeleton, silhouetted against the slowly-abating flames, was drawing near even without the covering darkness. Kotori quickly remembered that now was no time to be staring at inexplicable occurences or wonder about the unexpected assistance, no matter how welcome it was - instead, she called upon her own persona before directing it towards the encroaching attacker. <font color=""green"">""Zionga,""</font> she called - a call that was immediately answered by a roaring bolt of lightning that crashed into the skeleton which, weakened both by a previous counter-attack in the dark and the sudden bombardment, was taken down by the attack; much to Kotori's relief.<br/><br/>All around, the others were having similar success against their foes. With their numbers quickly dwindling, Kotori's thoughts strayed back to the strange hawk - and with the immediate confusion lifted, realising that, by the looks of it, it had somehow come to their assistance; the inferno from before having been directed at their apparently common enemy - even if it left her with more than a fair share of questions.</div>"

Judging from the feed she had been receiving on her monitors, the shadows attacking Kami and his group were skeletal assassin's whose very image and name evoked a sense of danger and read, true to their name, the shadows would slash and cut with quick but deadly precision before disappearing into the shadows once more, ready to make their mark and dish out more than just small cuts. What got Ayano worried were their numbers, if it were just one or two, it would've been at least a fair match, but with the sheer amount of them, fighting would practically be a suicide mission.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#aba000"">""Ayano, let me know when they approach.

Hah, it's just like playing a video-game with QTE's and button prompts! Taking note not to get ahead of herself, the ordeal went for quite a while but the shadows showed no signs of stopping but the party on the other hand...Suddenly, she had gotten another reading. The blinking and the alarming sound made her cock her head into the side of the screen, it showed a blue light, which struck her as odd. The blue light was only meant for friendlies...She took a quick gander at her center screen, carefully eyeing the surroundings to see if anyone had run off from the group but everyone was still there, trying to handle the skeletal assassins.<br/><br/>Within the minutes, Ayano could swear that her breath was going to run out soon from all of her shouting...She should've brought along a bottle of water if she knew this was going to happen. Why can't there be a Persona who predicts the future? Although, then again, such a power would either be useless or overpowered. Nearly slumping in defeat, the girl was shocked when the area was suddenly blanketed in a crimson light, her shock only intensified when she heard the cry of a hawk. Immediately, she turned all attention to the source of the screech and what beheld her was what could only be described as a hybrid between a Transformer and a crow, could this have been the friendly reading she was getting earlier? It seemed like it, it didn't resemble a shadow and its light revealed the assassin's and thus the party was finally able to rain pain on their silent stalkers.</div>"

With no way to just conveniently cut through magic chains, the group was forced to deal with the shadows that suddenly appeared behind them. The shadows were already were approaching the team, but they seemed to be moving on the slow side. A few of the others attempted to get close so they can attack, but the feminine shadow that lead the horde pushed them back with its whip and bouquet. Without much of a way to get in for an attack, the only good course of action was not having to find a way in all together.<br/><br/>	Luckily, Sato was well-prepared for such an enemy. Summoning Chronos, he timed his attack after Rui's for when he saw the shadow was most open. Swinging his arm, Chronos spun its scythe over its head, an explosion of light and cards hitting the shadow. While Sato was already preparing a Garula, Matt and/or Rui would have to deal with the smaller shadows, considering he and Akane had nothing to hit them all with. All being said, Sato was confident in their ability to stand up to their current enemy.</div>"

That's where things got weird. How weird? Well on top of the usual spaciness you'd expect of your run-of-the-mill dungeons, but the design this time was that of a regular house, but mind you, that wasn't really the strange part. The one that took the cake was at the end where they found themselves in front of a large tv screen with what appeared to be characters from a game. <br/><br/>Given that the sprite and the male character being shown on-screen, it was made obvious the main character was a girl. <span class=""bb-i"">Don't tell me....an otome game?

Given the fact it was here in the dungeon....chances were that they probably had to select something. Despite considering the embrace option, she decided to go with the general consensus and go with 'kiss' choice.<br/><br/>It was quite the boring ordeal but what made it worth it was Rui's reaction when he went to select the choice. Akane couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. Soon the screen feel apart and a door to the next area was revealed, however, as Rui went to open them, chains wrapped around them, locking them out. Megumi then warned them of a shadow attack, if the whole door locking didn't make it obvious enough.<br/><br/>Given their new enemy, and latest orders, Akane could tell it was going to be an irritating fight. Well, at least for her considering she was a melee fighter and didn't have any magic attacks. All in all, in basically means that, unless they manage to break through those annoying weapons of theirs and get closer, she was forced to play support. Summoning Setanta, she casted another Matarukaja while she waits for her moment to strike.</div>"

Ever since he had gone through the harrowing experience of nearly losing Elena to an unknown world. He had been given a strange power, rather a calling card what Rui later told as <span class=""bb-i"">'Persona'</span>. It had been a surreal experience, though he didn't remember much if he was even helpful in his first delving in the mirror world.<br/><br/>Even this time, he was barely making any sense of the situation. The corridor was dark and every time they try fending of the lingering malevolence that permeated the place, they'd be attacked from an other direction. It was tough time moving forward. Though he had the familiar face of Kotori, he couldn't say if he was giving a good account of himself in this situation.<br/><br/>The tyre iron in his hand was idle for a long time he had swung at shadows that were elusive before a strange hawk appeared. With its appearance the area was bathed in red light and their assailants was revealed.

It's like it was helping everyone, still, this was a blessing, they can be at a better state when they finally reach the end of this dungeon.

That door up there was going to be the way to the finale.<br/><br/>""Right, everyone make sure you're ready, then we move"", he gave everyone a moment to recompose before they made the long climb...

Even now, the voiced seemed to be in heated debate, though one of the voices seemed only to be amused by the exchange. As the party drew closer, their words would now become audible as the light from within poured into the dimly lit tunnel.<br/><br/>	""You're out of your damn mind,"" The angered voice called out in a near-shout, ""You really think I give a damn about the opinions of others? Hell, half of the people in this town can't get by on their own, and it's not like I don't get paid to do my part.<br/><br/>	""Ah, true,"" The other voice responded, it's tone more regal and formal in it's address, ""But that does not explain your reasoning behind your heavy load. You run yourself ragged for their approval, and you have every right! Why would a shining beacon be content with being ignored? These people should worship and adore you for all that you have done for this city and the people within it."" <br/><br/>	If the party opened the door, they would be able a well lit throne room, ornate in it's design and decoration as several of the pillars that lined the interior of the dungeon now marked a lavish carpet that led further into the room. Despite the pristine condition of the expansive room, the walls and ceiling were littered with manacles that held within them a featureless figure that remained still in it's elevated nature. These blank bodies hung limply from their restraints, all with heads facing the floor as if in a display of bowing towards the throne. At the foot of the ascending stairs stood Masahide in his school attire, his foot placed squarely upon the first step as he looked up the pathway to another man, seeming an almost exact match to the male. Despite the resemblance in facial features, the complexion of the regal male atop the ivory throne was more lively than his counterpart, his body sheltered behind lavish gold armor that shone brightly in the well-lit surrounding.<br/><br/>	At once, the attention of the seated male turned to the party as he arose with outstretched arms, ""Ah! See? Even now, the people flock to their lord! They cannot exist without our guiding presence to lead them."" With this, the regal figure of Masahide's shadow began descending the stairs, the red cloak of which he once sat upon billowing in an exaggerated fashion as he moved.<br/><br/>	As the shadow mentioned the others, Masahide turned to the group in a mild disbelief, clenching his teeth as he attempted to still his growing rage as the words of the other, ""Great. Now we have an audience."" With a harsh sigh, Masa pinched the bridge of his nose in agitation as he fell silent.<br/><br/>	""Hush, boy. You know that we long to be the center of attention,"" The shadow spoke out once more, having fully descended the stairs as he stood before the true Masahide with a knowing smirk, ""It is only right for the people to pay homage to the true hero of this city! Let them marvel at our splendor."" With this, the armored male passed by the other without another word, his arms falling to his side as his attention turned to the party once more.<br/><br/>	Now trembling with anger, Masahide rounded, his fist clutched tightly as his voice rose to a shout, ""I don't know who the hell you think you are. You keep talking like you know what goes on in my head, but you couldn't be farther from the truth. Who gives a damn if people notice me? Why is it impossible to believe that I'm just doing this to leave my mark on this world?!""<br/><br/>	""It is not impossible, but what is a defining mark without anyone to witness it?"" The regal Masahide quizzed the other, raising a brow curiously as his attention remained forward, ""We both know your true desires. After all, I am just a spitting image of who you are. Which only comes naturally, because-"" Turning his head to gaze over his shoulder towards Masahide, the man in gold armor retained his smile as he spoke, ""- I am your true self. The one you try to keep hidden from others.""<br/><br/>	“What are you talking about?!” Masahide erupted with anger, his voice echoing through the very room as one the bodies subtly swayed.<br/><br/>	“Hahahaha! Do not play dumb with me, boy! Why deny our perfection? You cannot possibly believe that you and I are so different? The sooner you accept it, the easier it will become. Embrace the fact that I am the true you!”<br/><br/>	“… Shut up."" Masahide snarled, his body growing heavy at the mix of hatred and embarrassment at the private words being bellowed out before the others that had arrived mere moments before, ""Just because I’m trying to make this world a better place does not mean I’m a vain bastard like you! There is no way in hell you can be me!”<br/><br/>	At this, a strong an audible pulsing resounded within the room, bringing the expansive venue to an eerie silence. Without warning, one of the manacles from the ceiling audibly snapped as the held body plummeted towards the floor. One would expect the lifeless figure to strike the stone beneath with a sickening slap, but the body merely landed upon it's hands and feet as it remained crouched at the side of the shadow in armor. Slowly, the form of the Masahide's shadow began to twist and contort, his arms and legs extending disproportionately as the features of his face faded to a blank expression with harrowing eyes. In a matter of moments, the man before them went from an ornately armored mirror-image of Masahide to a menacing, yet regal shadow that clasped what appeared to be a glass of wine that accompanied his lavish suit that replaced his former armaments. The blank form to his side also began to twist and distort, sprouting fur in tufts that quickly overtook the now elongated and bestial form of the creature that curled around at it's master's side.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/y8x5tOZ.png""/></div></div><br/><br/>	""And with that, the curtain arises,"" a voice boomed within the room, the face transposed onto the seemingly wolf-like beast moving it's mouth along with the spoken words, ""Come now, children!

The eerie sound of bones rattling echoed throughout the room as the last skeletons were similarly dismanteled; their remains scattering about before dissolving like the many shadows before them. Even so, everyone was still very much on guard after the previous ambush - at least until Ayano could give them the all clear; much to the group's relief.<br/><br/>Looking about as she took a moment to catch her breath, Kotori noticed that the hawk was no longer soaring above them; seemingly having vanished as quickly as it had appeared. A puzzled look upon her face, she didn't know what to think - but she was thankful nonetheless; giving a quick bow in gratitude in the direction she thought it may have flown off into and hoped it stayed safe before Kaminari gave the orders to press on. They left the room behind - still smoldering in some places after the heavy bombardement - as Ayano told them that the hawk was indeed flying elsewhere, leaving Kotori hopeful that it might perhaps be as helpful to the other groups as it had been to theirs.<br/><br/>As they carried on, Kotori began once more to glance about; even more so than before after the ambush that had been sprung upon them. This, however, turned out to be unnecessary as they didn't encounter any further shadows along the way; something that Ayano could only confirm as they reached a set of stairs. Following it upwards with her eyes didn't exactly fill Kotori with joy at the thought of having to climb all of them - but judging by the tension that overcame everyone when they saw the enormous door atop the stairs, everyone realised that behind it would be no respite. With even even less to look forward to, Kotori took a deep breath as Kaminari told everyone to ready up. <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime. Media,""</font> she said, her Persona following suit as she raised the thorned flower in her hands as a soft light enveloped the group; easing fatigue, healing scrapes and bringing everyone to top condition before heading into what would undoubtedly be a most taxing confrontation. And with her side of the preparations completed, the long climb began.<br/><br/>As they ascended the strangely silent stairs, every sound they made seemed amplified - but also let them pick up on a faint voice coming from up ahead. As they drew closer to the door, they became able to distinguish some words - and the fact that it was, in actuality, two voices which sounded strangely similar. This gave Kotori quite a sinking feeling as she realised what this meant - and even more so when she also realised that she recognised the voice. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was the sound she made when she noticed that the person up ahead was none other than yet another of her classmates - Masahide Saji. For a moment, her initial doubts and fears returned - not only Shizuka, a fellow Agriculture Club member, and Mako, another classmate, but now Masahide as well. It seemed as if everyone who had been kidnapped was somehow linked to her. Her pace slowed as she began to wonder if perhaps she was doing something that was bringing them to harm - but after a second, she vigorously shook her head.<br/><br/>Such worries and fears would only be a downward spiral of negativity - and that's not what she needed right now; especially not with what was ahead and with the other three - Alexei, Kaminari and Riku - at her side counting on her to do her part. Catching up again and slightly regretting the action when she realised how quick her breathing was when they reached the top of the stairs, the group pushed onward and into the room.<br/><br/>After the derelict and decayed nature of the entire dungeon beforehand, the room they entered was a stark contrast. Pillars, not crumbling but standing tall, lined the path ahead. It was laid out with a carpet deep red in colour. The walls were lined with works of art - though she might not recognise any of them, the decor of the place suggested that they too were likely of resplendant worth. The only thing out of place were the strange contraptions all about the ceiling and walls which helds what looked like people chained within them. Despite this, it was an overwhelming display of wealth which all lead up to the real center piece of the room - an ivory throne, upon which sat a single figure. At the stairs before the throne stood another - yet both were the same: Masahide Saji. The figure atop the throne seemed almost delighted when it saw the group of four entering; his tone almost jovial as he greeted them - yet his words were clearly condescending; leaving little doubt as to which Masahide was the real one.<br/><br/>Once more, confusion and discomfort came over Kotori as she heard the Shadow continued speaking. It didn't seem right to be witnessing someone's innermost thoughts being spoken out aloud; especially when they seemed so at odds with how the person normally was. After all, Masahide was fairly well-known for helping out around town without asking for anything in return - yet here he was, saying it was all just to have people look up to him? However, in the midst of all this, Masahide suddenly began shouting - and in doing so, spoke the fateful words which resounded throughout the throne room as he denied his other self.<br/><br/>Kotori feebly raised a hand as if to try and stop the words already spoken when silence descended across the room - only to be suddenly broken by a snapping sound as the manacles holding one of the bodies aloft seemed to crack and leave it to fall to the ground. Yet instead of striking the ground, it instead seemed to land on all fours; reminiscent of an animal rather than a human. At the same time, the Shadow drew closer - and with every step, its arms and legs seemed to grow longer and longer as its face lost ever more features. Colour drained from his body until all that was left was a deathly pale figure, its long fingers grasping a glass of wine whilst the body beside him began to shake and grow whilst what looked like hair sprung from it. In moments, the hair sprouted all over - until it was covered in black fur, no longer human but rather a wolf of sorts, though Kotori had never seen a wolf with a face for a head.<br/><br/>Sickly yellow beads peered out from the black void where the Shadow's eyes should be - and then it spoke, despite having no mouth. Instead, the wolf-like being seemed to be its voice as it beckoned them to come toward him. No matter how often she may see them, Kotori could never get used to the sheer inhuman appearance of these shadows or the menace that radiated from them - but she also knew that letting such discomfort get to her would be the single worst thing she could do right now. Instead, she called upon her Persona - and as she spoke her name, <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> she felt the calming presence put her at least somewhat at ease. After all, she wasn't along in facing this Shadow as Alexei, Kaminari and Riku all readied themselves for what was to come.</div>"

There didn't seem to be anything other than this signifying the defeat of the shadow and making it easier to see, so they simply stepped through the doors...<br/><br/>Before them was an almost familiar scene, the one they were here to rescue, and their shadow.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/amaterasu"">@Amaterasu</a> It's go time.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Hall of the Slain F1<br/>28/6/2015 Sunday</div><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/haru-nyan"">@haru nyan</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/diabolicalrhapsody"">@diabolicalrhapsody</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/takaru"">@takaru</a><br/>Rescue Target: Masahide <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/leolycan"">@Leolycan</a></div><br/><br/>Kami stood silent knowing what was about to unfold.

Somehow, she and the rest of the team need to repay that bird one way or another, but that'll have to come later. To her utter surprise, the avian had darted off somewhere, and a quick gander at her scanners revealed that it was going off to another dungeon, most likely to help the other groups out. Huh, what a strange little thing it was. With the skeletal assassin's slain, there was only one thing to do, and the foreboding atmosphere within the dungeon had only been amplified to a dangerous level. The blinking red caution sign appearing on her screen didn't help either, the group had no choice but to push forward, and Ayano put her faith in to everyone.<br/><br/>Kami and the others had made quite a climb, the brunette could only feel sorry for them and how sore their feet must be, it was one of the perks of being a navigator instead of actually exploring the dungeon. She uttered a warning to the party, sensing the ominous and intimidating aura from behind the door, it didn't take a rocket genius to figure out who and what was behind the door. They had come this far, to turn back now would be all for naught, and so they opened the door. Appearing before them were the usual scenario that they had witnessed time and time again, the true self and the other self, the concepts of which having been lost and twisted ever since their ventures. The regal and grandeur illusion the throne room was casting certainly helped with the atmosphere the shadow of Masahide was trying to evoke; a narcissistic king who thinks he is above perfection itself, one of the worst facets of man. It didn't take long for the boy to lash out his anger and denial at his shadow and say those three words...<br/><br/>What followed was the transformation of what was once a mirror image, into a hyperbolic demonization of itself, accompanied with a canid creature that certainly looked more than ready to feast on the remains of the party, Ayano hoped it certainly wouldn't have to come to that. Not a moment too soon, Ayano began to rapidly type on her keyboard, her left screen deciphering data on the tall figure and her right screen deciphering the wolf. It would take a moment before the scan was complete and Ayano could only do what she could during that time,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""Keep your distance, guys!

In an attempt to adjust her eyes, hazel orbs slowly open themselves just to be greeted by obnoxiously colorful spotlights. <font color=""violet"">""Wh... Where am I...?""</font> Being unable to recall what had happened before becoming unconscious, the raven haired maiden straightened her sitting posture to survey the unfamiliar surroundings.<br/><br/>..... Sparkling runway stage. Limitless shower of cherry blossom petals. Colorful lights randomly beaming throughout the runway. Sparkles and bubbles floating in the air. ... Just <span class=""bb-i"">where</span> on earth was she? Blinking at such an odd sight, the poor girl then realized there was some kind of transparent wall before her. As she looked around herself, Shizuka quickly stood on her feet from her discovery.  She was inside a transparent showcase.<br/><br/>How did she end up here in the first place? In a sudden panic, the teen desperately tapped her hands against the transparent case while screaming, hoping someone would hear her, <font color=""violet"">""I-Is anyone out there? P-Please help me!""</font> As if to respond to her call for help, another's voice was heard. Except... she was laughing, and it was a voice too familiar to her. <span class=""bb-i"">It was the sound of her own voice.</span><br/><br/>Puzzled at the laughter with her voice, Shizuka's hand covered her lips in shock. In a mocking tone, the owner of the laughing voice chuckled and revealed herself before... herself? Widened eyes stared at the smirking mirror image, in an extravagantly-made white magical girl outfit, that now stood in front of her. Unable to find the words to express how utterly confused she was, the other parted her lips, <font color=""#fff200"">""What's the matter? Hoping for a charming prince to come and save you?""</font> <span class=""bb-i"">Who is she and how is she able to read my thoughts?</span>, Shizuka continued being speechless, her hands trembling in fear.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""No response? I was right, wasn't I?""</font> A devilish giggle escaped the mirror image's lips. <font color=""#fff200"">""You always sought attention from your senpais and customers to treat you as the princess you deserve to be treated as. Just like the protagonists of the games you play and mangas you read! Isn't that so?""</font><br/><br/>Slowly shaking her head in disbelief, Shizuka's trembling lips began to retort against the look alike. <font color=""violet"">""N-No... T-That's not how I fe-feel...! I-I genuinely enjoy their company, I-I wouldn't ask for a-anymore.""</font> <br/><br/>Leaning forward and waving her index finger as if she had said something wrong, the look alike teased, <font color=""#fff200"">""Tsk tsk tsk. You shouldn't lie to yourself like that, deary. I can hear the hesitance in your voice as clear as day.""</font> Just noticing the presence of another in the area, the magical girl outfitted image turned towards the group with a delighted expression. <font color=""#fff200"">""Oh, look who we have here! Our beloved senpais actually came to rescue you it seems. Fufufu, I wonder if they've heard how much of an attention seeking girl you are!""</font><br/><br/>Shizuka flinched at the mention of her upperclassmen and turned her attention towards the group of four. <font color=""violet"">""Ha-Harvester-senpai!""</font> Just the sight of the upperclassman put her at slight ease until the other Shizuka spoke ill of her.<br/><br/>The once smiling lips on the other girl curved into a more scheming grin as she continued her ramble, <font color=""#fff200"">""Too many senpai routes to pick from, what's a girl to do? Poor gullible Harvester-senpai over there has no idea you're a born otome game protagonist, you can't simply pick one! You only picked him first because he conveniently confessed. It saved all the work on your part! But like all otome game protagonists, we'll eventually have to move onto the next routes waiting for us. Sorry senpai but this is the <span class=""bb-i"">real me</span>, ohohohoho~!""</font> <br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""S-Stop saying such horrible things! Se-Senpai, it's not true, p-please don't listen to he-her...!""</font> Eyes starting to moist with tears, the raven haired maiden pleaded, her body trembling from frustration at this mirror image that just seemed to know anything about her. Just what did she want and why was she causing this much grief to her? <font color=""violet"">""W-Why... Why are you to-tormenting me like this wi-with these lies...?""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Me? Lie? But I've been telling the truth about us the whole time, silly Shizuka!

There's no need to be ashamed that you want to live in your own shoujo manga with your very own harem!

Yo-You don't understand how I t-truly feel at all!""</font><br/><br/>As if a magical phrase has been said, the look alike paused for a moment.

With the miracle power of a maiden's heart, transform~!""</font><br/><br/>Like some sort of fantasy magical girl transformation sequence, the imitator was suddenly wrapped in a pastel colored, psychedelic orb with ribbons, from out of nowhere, fully envelop the orb until POOF.

Such was the case with Masahide once again - though at least Kaminari had the wits to warn the real one to get aside, seeing as what was to come was likely not going to be something that one wanted to be in the midst of. In fact, Kotori felt much that way - but with a deep breath she steeled herself for the inevitable battle ahead, however it may pan out.<br/><br/>Ayano immediately began to scan the shadow in an attempt to find their weaknesses; relaying much the same as Kaminari said: To keep one's distance and hold out for the time being. <font color=""green"">""Ah, y-yes.""</font> Kotori was only too glad to follow the advice as everyone engaged in their respective last second preparations. As Kaminari cast a familiar shielding spell to envelope himself in a defensive layer that would hopefully allow him to withstand any attacks a little better, Kotori unfortunately had little to offer in the ways of helping the others or herself out. Furthermore, without knowing exactly what they were up against, she was afraid to just cast offensive spells with abandon at either shadow in case that was just what it wanted.<br/><br/>Instead, Kotori tried to keep behind Kaminari, who put himself between the party and the shadows; hoping that it would give her enough time to react should either shadow go for her whilst she prepared both Kikuri-Hime and herself to cast any healing spells should they be necessary - though she'd much rather they wouldn't be.</div>"

As Rui capitalized on the moment with his persona, Sato kept slinging spells at it. His persona danced around him, throwing blasts of wind left and right. With everyone else's attacks combined, the shadow was eviscerated by the barrage of spells and strikes, leaving nothing but a husk behind as it died. There were a few straggler shadows littered about still, but they were hardly of concern as the barricade blocking the door behind them broke away, as if the lights turning on wasn't a big enough sign already that they had won.<br/><br/>	Rui lead the group through the door, bringing them into another wide-open room, a runway stage in the middle of it. Cherry blossoms, bubbles, and glitter flew through air and through the spotlights wandering the walls and floor. This time, however, instead of mannequins or shadows, it was filled with only two Shizukas. Not a shock, but still alarming nonetheless. It felt sickening to see someone Sato personally knew, as if he himself had been targeted again. It felt a little conceited to think that way, but... it was hard to otherwise describe the feeling. He had to resist his urge to rush forward, as he knew that would do the exact opposite of help.<br/><br/>	It was as Sato bit his lip that the shadow, malicious yellow eyes betraying the mahou shoujou costume she wore, pointed to the group of teens that had barged in on whatever freakshow was being held. Shizuka shouted out to Matt, a connection Sato wasn't sure if he remembered. Regardless, shouting out like that was a mistake, as the shadow immediately spun more probably scatching remarks about it. He cocked his head when he heard Matt had confessed to her, but Sato shook himself back to the main point of that she was facing her shadow and all. Dating sim rambling, pretentious laughter, and that familiar heart-ripping sarcasm fell out of the shadow's obnoxious mouth.<br/><br/>	The disturbing laughter the shadow let out was a prequel to the real attraction of the show, in which Shizuka said... those words. As soon as she said it, a thick silence fell over the room, before the shadow underwent what seemed like some kind of magical girl transformation sequence. Ribbons and orbs surrounded her-- it?-- before exploding into a cloud of sparkles from which emerged the shadow's 'true form'. Or, in other words, some weird garish fox demon thing popped out from behind the smoke and mirrors.<br/><br/>	Like always, their first priority was making sure Shizuka was safe, which was (fortunately) a task better suited for one of the more physical members of the team. Or the more dedicated. He fully expected Matt to rush to her side as fast as he could, but Sato was more preoccupied with himself to really watch. Tracking the fox shadow carefully, Sato stood to its flank. It felt too risky to try to make the first move, in case it had some kind of wild trick up its sleeve, so Sato summoned his persona and set up a Marakukaja shield around the party.</div>"

However, this did not last very long - Ayano's initial scans revealed that the hound was called Fafnir and was a fast and dangerous attacker. The shadow in the back, meanwhile, still eluded her on details beyond the fact that his glass of wine was apparently one of healing too - that was probably going to be something that needed to be dealt with if they didn't want the fight to drag on.<br/><br/>Kotori, meanwhile, had remained at a distance and nervously glanced between the two shadowy enemies - but Kaminari and Riku did not wait as long. The former called upon Zeus to deliver a Mazio attack, briefly stunning their foes but not dealing much damage. Riku used the opportunity to strike in tandem with his own persona, Lu Bu - but unfortunately, the heavy blow came a moment too late as the wolf-like shadow recovered just in time to jump aside; the impact nonetheless resounding throughout the room - undoubtedly that would have been a devastating blow if it had hit.<br/><br/>As no one had yet suffered any wounds, Kotori was free to try and aid the attack for the moment - and as Kaminari's attack had shown, neither of the two opponents seemed to be immune to lightning strikes. As such, she called upon her own Persona: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime.""</font> Unfortunately, she could only target a single foe with her limited offensive abilities - and without knowing the extent of either the main shadow's healing prowess or the hound's ability to dodge, it wasn't an easy decision.

Unfortunately, unlike the hound, it didn't seem too impressed by the hit; immediately going for a counter-attack together with its companion against their assailant. Alexei in turn, however, didn't seem much worse for wear as he shrugged the attack off and denying any immediate need for healing attention despite Kotori insistence - instead, they should rather focus on their foe and save any healing for when it was really necessary.<br/><br/>Kaminari seemed to be of the same opinion as, upon observing how their enemies took the hits they'd been dealt, he ordered an all-out attack on the wolf so that they could hopefully turn the odds more in their favour. <font color=""green"">""Right,""</font> Kotori nodded at that before turning to track the wolf - it seemed to already know that there were more attacks incoming as it was skittering from side to side to make itself a harder target.

It did a thing and next thing Sato knew, lights were beaming down on them, moving around the entire group. The colors seemed to burn a little, a little bit of pain on his skin, but it wasn't anything bad. More concerning was the fact that Sato could watch as the lights tore through the shields and buffs that they had just set up. If this was going to be a thing through the whole fight, Sato decided it wouldn't be worth it to put effort into keeping them up. They'd just have to make do with what they had.<br/><br/>	Without much else to do, Sato flicked his wrist, and Chronos suddenly appeared in front of him. A circle of light appeared below the fox shadow, exploding if it moved a muscle inside of it. With that set up, he immediately casted a Garula to push it and thus set if off.</div>"

It appended into a regular hallway just several steps through, but as they walked down this hallway, the darkness behind them would creep along the walls, first forming the familiar marks and graffiti on the wall from the rest of the dungeon, and turning into legible writing. ""They killed him"", ""it was their fault"", ""they deserve to die"", as everyone read these messages their walk through this hallway became more and more unsettling, until finally they reached a set of double doors swung open.

Following that was processing the fact that <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span> hurt.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">Owww... someone get the number of the truck that hit me.</font></span> He shifted, trying to find purchase on the slick ground through the fog in his brain. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">Ugh... jeez, you'd think those cultists would be a bit more careful with the people they're trying to--</font></span><br/><br/>Mako's eyes snapped open. The cultists! Gritting his teeth with the effort, he managed to slowly push himself up to a kneeling position, groaning in pain as he took in his surroundings. It was... bleak. Some sort of abandoned facility, like a community center, or something. It was hard to tell under the layer of graffiti and filth covering every surface. It was honestly pretty nauseating.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">I didn't even know there was a building like this in Warakuma.</font></span> He pondered this thought for a moment more before a sick feeling settled in his stomach. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">But then... how long have I been out? I might not even be anywhere near Warakuma anymore... which would be troubling.</font></span> He pushed himself to his feet, still feeling somewhat stiff and shaky. It was somewhat hard to see, seeing as it was dark, but he could see a lot of debris scattered around him. He'd have to watch where he stepped- wouldn't want to trip over anything in the dark.<br/><br/>He took a few tentative steps forward before light flared from directly above, briefly blinding him. He hissed in pain, his headache exacerbated by the sudden light.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">Confounded tech crew, what the hell--?</font></span> He risked sparing a glance around, to see what the light had illuminated, then froze, eyes going wide as his pain was forgotten.<br/><br/>Two dummies, situated directly to his left and right, hung in the air above him by their necks, as though in effigy. That would have been disturbing enough, but then there was the writing on them to consider, as well. On his left, the dummy was marked with the kanji for ""mother."" On the right, the kanji read ""father."" Mako shook his head, looking between the hanged dummies, feeling a sickening sense of... almost familiarity. Like... he knew this scene, somehow.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">What the hell is this?</font></span> With the light shining down, Mako could more clearly make out the writing on the walls and floor- and what he read only enhanced the sickened feeling in his gut. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0076a3"">Is this... could these really be...?</font></span><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">“Ugh, fuckin' <span class=""bb-i"">finally!</span> I was beginning to think you were never waking up.”</font><br/><br/>Mako turned abruptly toward the voice that sounded behind him. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Who--?""</font> <br/><br/>Whatever he was going to say died on his lips as soon as he saw the source of the voice. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">That’s… that’s not possible.</span></font> He stared in blank shock at the figure, hunched and squatting a short distance away, tapping a nonsense rhythm on his knees with his fingers. The figure smirked, as though it could tell what he was thinking, rising lithely to its full standing height, still wearing that grin. <br/><br/>His own grin, on his own face.<br/><br/>His doppelganger sauntered over, wearing what appeared to be a tattered straitjacket, the sleeves torn off at the elbows, its hands filthy with what looked like dried blood. He shuddered.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">“What are you…?”</font><br/><br/>The grin grew wider, but no less cold. <font color=""#fff200"">“I should think you would be able to figure that out, genius. Those cultists must have hit you pretty goddamn hard if you don't even recognize your own face.”</font><br/><br/>Mako flinched, then tried to maintain his composure. <font color=""#0076a3"">“...Really? You really think I’m gonna buy that something like you is me?”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">“Why not? You fake it all the time. Why is this identity any less honest than the rest of you?”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">“I… I don’t fake--”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">“I’m gonna stop you right there, ‘cause we both know that’s bullshit. I mean, let’s count the ways, shall we? The grade-A pupil to your teachers? Budding actor to the drama club? Rising star to the boxers, and charming master to that stupid cafe you always go to. And let’s not forget the most unbearable of your acts, the shining white knight for that little sham of a relationship you're trying to force. So many faces, so many charming little lies.""</font><br/><br/>Mako's mouth worked noiselessly as he tried to think of something to say, but was distracted by the doors behind his copy opening up, admitting a trio of individuals. The copy's eyebrow raised as he turned around. Mako couldn't tell, but it seemed, from his doppelganger's stance, that he would be grinning that cold grin.<br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""Ah. The peanut gallery finally arrives, but...""</font> His head tilted. <font color=""#fff200"">""...Hmm. Your boyfriend's not here. What a shame.""</font> He shrugged, turning back toward Mako. <font color=""#fff200"">""Perhaps these idiots can help spread the news, then. After all, how many of your friends know what you’re really hiding? How many of them know that underneath all your layers, all the fakery, all the bullshit you try and pull, that all they’ll find is me…?”</font><br/><br/>Mako grit his teeth. <font color=""#0076a3"">“You’re not--”</font><br/><br/>He cut off suddenly as the doppelganger struck him across the face. <font color=""#fff200"">“What the fuck did I say about lies? You may not want to admit it, but I don’t have the same compunctions. Why do you think you try so hard to deny it? Why else would you run to all your little make-believe selves in an attempt to flee? You fake being a decent person because you know that deep down inside, I’M the real you! It’s always been like that, ever since Haku was killed.”</font><br/><br/>Mako clenched his fists. <font color=""#0076a3"">“Haku killed himself!!”</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">“BECAUSE OF THEM!!""</font> the doppelganger shrieked, looking purely enraged, hands curled into claws at his sides. <font color=""#fff200"">""Haku did it because he couldn't take it anymore! Because dear old mom and dad couldn’t be in the same room for two seconds without trying to tear each other down! Because they turned on him whenever he tried to make it stop! Because they made his life- your life!- miserable for daring to try and make them understand what they were doing to you!! They pushed and shoved you both until he broke- until there was nothing left! They may not have tied the noose around his neck, but it’s still their fault! And instead of doing something about it- even after your brother died because of them- what did you do? You ran. You tried to forget any of it ever happened. You ran away and you threw yourself into whatever fake life you could come up with in an attempt to get away from me! To drown me in your fakery!<br/><br/>“But you can’t, can you? And you know that. I’m always itching to come out. When that prick at the cafe was snapping photos, when you’re fighting, when those cultists were dragging you all out of that stupid cafe… whenever the going gets tough, that’s the real you that’s coming out. Deep down, all you have is me, because I’m the only honest thing about you. And you’re not just afraid of admitting I’m there, you’re afraid to admit you like me. You like the anger. You like the feeling you get when you get a chance to let me out. You’re a coward who’s afraid to admit that you like being a monster. The moment you get to hurt someone… is the only moment you’re really alive. Isn’t it?”</font><br/><br/>The double laughed, then- a cold, broken, hollow sound. <font color=""#fff200"">“Yeah, you know it’s the truth. So why fight it? Why not let me out, show everyone the real you? Go back to Tokyo, say hi to the folks. Let them know how much it means to you… that they turned you into this. Or if you’re too chicken, you could stay here, and I’ll do it! Makes no difference, really. After all, I am you... aren't I?”</font> He laughed again, hideous, high-pitched, psychotic. Mako clenched his fists before walking up to the copy, swinging his fist into its face, its nose crunching under his fist. The double clutched at his face, eyes reflecting shock and... amusement, almost?<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">“Shut up! SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP!! What the fuck are you, a cartoon supervillain? Get a life, and get the fuck out of here! You’re not a thing like me, you hear?? You. Are not. Me! Now leave me alone!!”</font><br/><br/>There was silence for the space of a moment. Then the laughing started. Low, slow, deep, then rising in pitch and intensity, higher and higher until the insane sound echoed off the walls. And underneath the crazed laughter was another sound, the sound of ripping and tearing, as the doppelganger’s body began to twist and warp- limbs growing longer. Skin darkening to ashen color. Its back swelling grotesquely, until a pair of bloody wings wings burst out gorily. Mako stared in horror at the eyes that stared him down, full of malice- <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/lara1fj.png"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">at the horror that now awaited him.</a><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">“You know something?

Bolts of lightning streaked out from Zeus, blanketing both enemies in surging electricity that forced them on their backfoot - just enough time for the real attacks to strike. Alexei and Riku charged forth, intent on beating down the briefly stunned wolf-like shadow - but for good measure, Kotori added another lightning bolt courtesy of Kikuri-Hime from on high; blasting straight down into the hound. It howled from the pain and brief debilitation thereof - which proved more than enough for the remaining two attackers to reach their target and cleave the shadowy wolf apart; launching it far from them, beaten and bloodied - or as bloodied as a living shadow could be.<br/><br/>This seemed to do little more than annoy the prime shadow however - who was intent on getting its companion back in the fight as it growled at the fallen hound. Raising its hand, the shadow began to pour the wine in its glass over the wolf - which caused it to stir; reminding everyone of Ayano's words that it held healing properties. If they weren't swift, they would be facing two enemies once again, Kotori worried. Kaminari seemed to think similarly as he didn't hesitate to order an attack on the preoccupied shadow; perhaps hoping to stop the process of resurrection or simply to get as much damage done as they could whilst it was relatively safe to do so.<br/><br/>Either way, Kotori quickly nodded in agreement as all three - Alexei, Riku and Kaminari - got off to a running start; intent on getting close and personal to unleash their strongest attacks. Kotori meanwhile remained behind - both to keep an eye on her companions and to make use of Kikuri-Hime in order to once more cast a lightning spell down on their enemies: <font color=""green"">""Zionga,""</font> she called before thunder crashed through the hall, a lightning bolt striking down from above just moments before the others engaged the shadow - leaving Kotori to hope, if only ever so slightly, that perhaps they could end this here and now before the fight dragged on longer and more of them got hurt.</div>"

Sato nodded in agreement; it seemed logical. The shadow was making a big deal out of its 'performance', so interrupting the dance would have to work out somehow, wouldn't it?<br/><br/>	Matt's previous attacks hadn't done much, but it didn't stop him from keeping on trying, with... a lot of vigor, to say the least. At least he seemed to be aiming for the legs instead of throwing things at it. With Rui and Akane heading in close, Sato started watching the shadow carefully, keeping out of the way of any attacks it might launch in his direction. When he noticed what he thought might be an opening, Sato commanded his persona to throw a Garula at the back of its legs in an attempt to knock it down.

After a moment, movement would return to the body as it attempted to stand, talking once more through the face that adorned the collapsed wolf's head.<br/><br/>	""Glorious! Simply Glorious! You all offer quite the show, and for that I'll grant you a swift end."" The creatures voice boomed as it rightened itself, readying itself for another round with the party. Meanwhile, Masahide could only look on in a mixture of confusion and horror, the words of his doppleganger now resonating on a level that he had all but ignored till this point. Was he truly so vain that his efforts to help the city were for nothing better than bragging rights? Is it true that he felt above all the others that merely lived their lives without giving as much as him? Clenching his teeth and fist, Masa felt the anger rising in his chest. At Kami spoke, Masa felt the truth in his words... And it was then that it all became clear.<br/><br/>	""You're right..."" Masa spoke in a hushed tone, his vision lowered with hand still clenched into fists.<br/><br/>	""What?"" The shadow spoke, turning his attention immediately from the group before him to his double just behind. It was clear that his once confident voice had waivered slightly, seeming more alarmed and unsure at the creature narrowed it's eyes.<br/><br/>	""Is it wrong to want to be remembered for what I've done? Sure, I want to help others, but is it really so bad to want a mark to be left behind?"" At this, Masa lifted his head as his vision locked with that of the creatures. It was then that he felt that familiar heat of anger, urging the boy to shout out his proclimation, ""I want the world to remember my name. I want people to speak of my name with fondness and respect- just as they did with my father."" It was then that his voice softened... And again he looked inside himself.<br/><br/>	""Surely you don't mean to tell me you're ready to admit y-""<br/><br/>	""You want me to spell it out? Fine. There is a sense of vanity behind my actions that I'm not proud of, but it's there. So, congradulations, you've won. You and I are one and the same.""<br/><br/>	As soon as the words left Masahide's lips, a supernatural light began to shine through the creatures being, encompassing it for a moment and elevating to an almost blinding level. With a quick turn of his head and lifting of his arm to shield his eyes, Masa diverted his gaze, clenching his teeth as the frustration of all these unexplainable events came to a boiling point. As the light subsided, he round with his hand falling to his side. He opened his mouth to speak, but fell silent as his eyes fell upon the image of a tall and slender figure, who's face was obscured by what seemed to be the head of a wolf. Despite the rather simple attire that adorned his upper form, his legs were guarded by rather robust ivory greaves, and one hand replaced with a long and menacing cleaver. For a moment, Masa could only stare on in silence as the anger that once welled within him fell to silence.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#004b80"">I art thou, and thou art I<br/>Thou shalt address me as Tyr, the Hand of Justice.<br/>May the world sing songs of praise for our deeds!</font></div><br/><br/>And with that, the creature began to fade before Masa's eyes, the echoing voice still ringing in the boy's ears as he reached out for the being who named himself as Tyr. It was odd, but Masa felt a strong connection to this being... But he didn't have time to question it as his vision turned to those about the room before going black, falling unconscious on the stone for a combination of emotional and mental fatigue, coupled with his already weary body.<br/></div>"

The shadow in turn came under a final assault as both Kaminari and Riku rushed forth to take mighty swings at the creature whilst Alexei kept a sharp eye on both the shadows; ready to step in should any make a move - but as it turned out, the combined assault finally managed to overwhelm the shadowy creatures. Slowly, inky blackness seemed to rise off of both as they seemed to evaporate before everyone's eyes - leaving only Masahide's golden-eyed double standing in the shadow's place; a familair scene by now and a sign of relief for Kotori who quickly used the opportunity to catch her breath - though not before asking Kikuri-Hime to cast a <font color=""green"">""Media""</font> upon the group to take care of any scrapes and bruises they might have acquired.<br/><br/>All that then remained was for Masahide to step forth with the encouraging words of Kaminari. Kotori could offer little more than a what she hoped was optimistic nod - even as once again the fear of what may happen if Masahide didn't accept his other side crept up inside her as his shadow began speaking once more. Luckily however, this fear quickly subsided when Masahide spoke in turn - agreeing that he was indeed doing things to leave an impression. However, upon admitting this he seemed to realise that just because he wasn't being selfless when he helped others didn't mean it was a bad thing - bringing a small smile to Kotori's lips as he seemed to reconcile both the good and bad parts of himself in a hopeful conclusion.<br/><br/>With those words spoken, the shadow began to emit a increasingly familiar glow - growing in intensity before releasing an almost blinding yet soothing flash as the malevolent shadow transformed into a new form: A wolf-headed humanoid, adorned with heavy armored boots and simple clothing whilst wielding a long blade. The figure remained for a mere few moments before vanishing out of sight, leaving Masahide to turn towards the group - just in time for the fatigue of the ordeal to catch up with him as he wordlessly fell to the ground in a sight all too familiar to those present. Luckily, that also meant that they were fully expecting it - and with Masahide thus successfully recovered, Kotori gave a sigh of relief.<br/><br/>As always, she was happy that they'd managed to rescue a kidnappee - and equally so that they had in turn managed to confront the troubles that plagued them and come to accept them rather than be consumed; even if being subjected to someone's innermost thoughts did leave her as uncomfortable as ever at the unintentional and uninvited prying - and even more so when the person in question happened to not be a stranger, but a classmate as well. In the quiet after the battle, preparations were quickly made as to who would be bringing the unconscious boy to the hospital and who would remain behind in case any of the other groups required any help - even though Kotori hoped that that wouldn't be necessary; the arduous experience of the last time she'd had to face two shadows back to back not exactly being the fondest of memories.<br/><br/>However, considering who'd been kidnapped, Kotori was willing to put up with that if it meant she'd be able to help rescue a classmate or fellow Agriculture Club member.</div>"

Just what was happening? Is this reality or some kind of dream? How did she end up in this situation? .... What was going to happen to her?<br/><br/>The team of four who had just arrived immediately sprung into action once the transformation sequence was over. <font color=""violet"">""Do-Don't come any closer, i-it's too dangerous...!""</font> While the maiden had no idea whatsoever of the capabilities that the fox demon had but if her intuition from games and anime were right, it was bound to have tricks up its sleeve. What she didn't know was that the four had their own unique abilities as well.<br/><br/>As her rescuers stepped forward, they summoned blue cards, out of nowhere, just to be shattered into pieces, triggering some kind of figures. Shizuka could not comprehend what was going on but this sort of scene felt all too familiar to her. Was it an anime she watched? Perhaps a game she played? She couldn't figure it out in the midst of such a mess and before she knew it, Rui and Matt were before her glass case, where the poor girl was trapped in.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Slash.</span> An opening on the glass case was formed thanks to one of the figures they controlled. Before the fox demon would turn its attention back to her, Shizuka ran along with the two, Matt firmly holding her hand to lead her to safety. Once they were far enough from the enemy, the upperclassmen were about to dive back into action. Before they left, Shizuka cheered them on with a worried tone, <font color=""violet"">""P-Please come back safely, senpai!""</font> The brunette upperclassman turned back towards the maiden for a moment to flash a melancholic smile, one which she could not see the emotion behind. Was it because of what her fraud had spoke about? Feeling guilty whether or not she admitted it as true, Shizuka could not help but return the gesture with a frown.<br/><br/>Both Rui and Matt had gone back into the battle as things became more intense, especially how the fox demon had easily dodged their attacks in dancing steps. Shizuka didn't want to admit it but how the fox demon gracefully made each step with the swaying of her hips, arms and tails was visually appealing. But this was not the time to be amused by the enemy's movements. If this was no dream, they were putting their lives on the line for her sake. There was nothing she could do but hope for the best outcome and keep out of their way.<br/><br/>After figuring out a possible weak point, the battle went down smoothly and the team was able to topple the imitator down, causing her appearance to transform back into the familiar figure. Watching her struggle to even attempt to get up pained the girl's heart a little. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""slategray"">""But you'll still need to come to terms with this, otherwise this won't end. Though I'm sure you can accept this part of yourself.""</font></span> As Rui stepped aside to let Shizuka pass, she gave a hesitant nod before approaching her other self. His last comment as she passed caused an ache to her chest, but her feet continued going forward. Before any appreciation was to be given, they deserved to know the truth.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Um...""</font> Shizuka knelt down to the shadow's level, seemingly unsure how to form words to express how she felt and what she wanted to say. <font color=""violet"">""It... It is as you say. I-I've always been living in my own de-delusional world.""</font> Releasing a deep sigh, Shizuka continued reluctantly, <font color=""violet"">""It must've began when mother and father... started drifting away from me. I-I've always held back from saying how truly lonely I felt... But instead, I indulged myself in my new found hobby.""</font><br/><br/><font color=""#fff200"">""...But we wouldn't have known that that new hobby would turn out to become an <span class=""bb-i"">unhealthy obsession</span>.""</font> The magical girl dressed figure frowned at her own words, which also caused Shizuka to frown slightly.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Yes... I-It was true. All that you've said. Because of the deprivation of attention from my parents, I... I sought out attention from upperclassmen and po-potential love interests as a shoujo manga protagonist would have done.""</font> Hazel eyes lowered themselves down as teardrops started to fall from the corners of her eyes. Lips trembled as the tone of her voice became softer and shaky. <font color=""violet"">""I-I hadn't meant any harm bu-but I see now how my se-selfish actions brought pain to pe-people who are dear...""</font><br/><br/>Shizuka sobbed in between her words, making it difficult to understand unless one listened to her carefully. As more streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, a hand wiped away the tears on her left, then the right cheek. Blinking in surprise at the gesture, Shizuka stared at the figure similar to her as if wondering what had happened to her hostility. <font color=""#fff200"">""Now, now. A crying face doesn't suit a shoujo protagonist, does it?""</font> Despite the pain the imitator had endured throughout the battle, she managed an encouraging smile upon her lips. <font color=""#fff200"">""You might have been a selfish shoujo protagonist but you've still brought smiles upon people's faces too, right? Making people happy, that part of you is what makes a <span class=""bb-i"">true</span> shoujo protagonist.""</font><br/><br/>Realizing the truth in her shadow's words, the maiden smiled slightly, tears ceasing to fall as she responded, <font color=""violet"">""I still have long ways to go, it seems. But... Thank you. I'm unsure whether or not people will still accept me as I am but being honest is the first step I've decided to take. <sub>Um... And lessen my unhealthy obsession with otaku things as well.</sub>""</font> The imitator giggled at Shizuka's whispered last comment, followed by Shizuka's own giggling.<br/><br/>A blinding light started to envelop the other self, startling Shizuka to her feet. Just what was going on this time? Was it another transformation sequence? If it was, the light which surrounded the other self this time felt gentle and gave off a warm aura. The light dimmed as a figure within became clearer until it resembled another <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/4nZPTrN.png"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">fox figure</a>. While it was another image of a fox like the earlier one, this figure didn't seem to give off any hostile aura. In fact, it gave off a familiar, kind aura instead. Shizuka was still shocked and confused at everything that had happened in the past couple of minutes but she felt that she did what was right in accepting her. A bright smile adorned her features as a voice spoke,<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""violet""><span class=""bb-i"">I art thou. Thou art I.<br/>I am Inari, the Goddess of Prosperity.</span></font></div><br/><br/>The voice faded along with the fox figure, leaving behind a shining blue card with an image of the Temperance arcana. The spinning blue card landed upon her open hands before it shattered into pieces, igniting a flash of blue light, wrapping Shizuka in a gentle, blue light. After a moment of letting what had just happened sink in, Shizuka turned to face the team of four, an apologetic expression upon her features. <font color=""violet"">""I-I truly apologize for... a-all the tro-... trouble I've ca-caused.... But.... t-tha.... --ou.....""</font><br/><br/>.........</div>"

The flames slowly died down, leaving nothing but char and embers in their wake. He walked through the haze of smoke, eyes focused on the collapsed form before him as it stirred, beginning to force itself to its feet. It finally rose, looking Mako in the eyes, though differently than it had- where once there was malice and vitriol, the thing's gaze now seemed appraising. Perhaps even anticipating something.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Heh. ""Creature."" ""Thing."" Am I still that much of a coward? Can I still not see what's happening here?<br/><br/>No. Not anymore.</span></font> Mako stared himself in the eyes, unwavering. Himself. His doppelganger, his... Shadow. Everything he'd run and hidden from. Everything he hated or feared about himself. His hands curled into fists as he tried to order his thoughts, trying to find the words he needed to say to his other half.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""...Fine. Goddammit, fine, okay? You win.

I wanted to- to hurt them. Make them suffer. Can you imagine...? Me, a kid, wanting to kill his own parents he was so angry. Can you imagine looking inside of yourself and seeing this, just itching to come out? It was horrifying.<br/><br/>""So I ran. I just ran. My parents were deemed unfit to keep me around after Haku died, and I was sent to live with my uncle here in town. I was... relieved. Ecstatic, even. Here was my chance- to flee those thoughts and feelings, to start anew. I tried to throw myself into my new life as much as possible. I ignored... all of this, burning and festering and growing inside me. I thought that if I could live hard enough, run far enough away, pretend I was happy for long enough, that maybe you'd just... go away.""</font><br/><br/>He laughed. A bitter, joyless sound. <font color=""#0076a3"">""What a fucking joke, right? Problems don't go away if you ignore them. They just... get worse. And every time I lost control, it was just another reminder of what an idiot I was to keep part of myself locked up, hoping I could pass as normal for just one more day. You just kept building and boiling and... I could never keep you down for long. No matter how hard I tried, you were always there. And I'm an idiot for not admitting this sooner.""</font><br/><br/>His face hardened, then, a look of resolve passing over his face.

Instead of a twisted version of Mako's flaws, the Shadow became a being in green and gold samurai armor, wielding a long trumpet like a lance or spear of some kind.

Matthew had already left to deliver Shizuka to the hospital, and Megumi went with them out of worry. Of course, it was both Tadao and Alexei who would take Masahide and Mako to the hospital too. Soon as they left, a voice was heard from the end of the hallway. Rui recognized it. The voice belonged to a detective, he met him some time back. The brown scruffy coat paired with the well kept, yet messily worn suit underneath was a strange combination, he had short hair and a stubble, in black, his face was gaunt, some age, his gaze was intense, and by the looks of his figure he was a man that commanded a great deal of physical strength too.<br/><br/><font color=""gray"">""I knew it was you kids... You all seem to know something we cops don't""</font>, he began. Kazuki was the first to get defensive and took a stance like he was ready to fight, as did a few others.<br/><br/><font color=""gray"">""I'm sorry if I caught you off guard, but I saw you all step out of that giant mirror behind you... Whatever the story is behind these kidnappings, I'm afraid no one, even me, would be able to believe it...""</font>, he sighed with frustration, stepped to look off to the side.<br/><br/><font color=""gray"">""Years of being a detective and trying to help people, and some case comes up without answers, turns out I couldn't do anything about it at all... Top it all off, one of my colleagues' son is involved, though I doubt his father knows anything about this. By the way, that's how I found this little setup. You're really good at finding things kid, but you're not so good at covering your tracks""</font>, he was referring to Kami, who tried not to look surprised.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""It was... Necessary...""</font>, was all he could say.<br/><br/><font color=""gray"">""No worries, I have men twice your age who would take longer digging up some of those files and connections. So that old cult is involved right...? And you guys somehow trace it to... Whatever this mirror is. Don't worry, I'm not here to bring you all in or anything... It's just as a responsible adult, I'm worried... One thing I know about these cultists is that at the flip of a hat they would kill someone in their way. So watch yourself when you're chasing them, even if I told you to leave it to us cops, you guys would probably still go off and do it huh...? Anyways... Don't be afraid to call the station, if we can help somehow... My break ends pretty soon, so I must be going. Stay safe kids""</font>, and with that he turned and left... Seems he was a good man, but you could feel his frustration too.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Well... That was a little unexpected... We should all probably go home and rest. We'll mull over everything another time""</font>, Rui suggested. Everyone seemed to agree. As they all walked off, the warning the detective gave them stuck with him... He would not figure out why it ate at him, until that day a few months from now.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">???<br/>29/6/2015 Monday</div></div><br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Fc3PxsXzE"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">""Welcome, to the Velvet Room""</a>, their eyes slowly came to. It was an unfamiliar room with an unearthly yet elegant blue decor, they sat at what they could only assume was a long, fancy dining table, and most of the people sitting here seemed to be mere black silhouettes save for two others as each of them could see.<br/><br/>Mako was the first to notice his outfit, mostly since it felt stiff and formal, and made him feel like a businessman. Even his glasses seemed to go under a stylistic change. One thing that stood out however was the blue and black thematic of the outfit, which matched the room they were situated in. The decorations upon his suit spoke ""fancy dinner event"", a blue rose lapel pin, and the ever-difficult eldredge knot for his blue satin tie. The suit was a navy with a matching black shirt as well, the buttons however were gold.<br/><br/>On the other end was Masahide, a dark blue striped shirt alongside a black suit jacket, what made this in particular stand out was the pocket square, a deep blue handkerchief that stood out from the otherwise plain outfit. As he raised his hands, he would notice he was wearing blue gloves matching the pocket square, and gold-blue cufflinks for the jacket.<br/><br/>Shizuka who had come to last noticed she looked dressed for a ballroom dance party, strangest to her was that she came to while holding what looked like a parasol, intricate blue black lacing patterns, and her clothes in a pseudo gothic lolita to match and compliment the formality of her dress. It seems to flare out more towards the bottom too. High gloves that went up to near her shoulder that seemed to be held up by a lacy pattern.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I am Igor, this is a place that exists between mind, and matter, dream, and reality""</font>, he began. The long nosed man was distinct, even from across the room, that long nose would be the most defining feature to identify him.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Only those who have signed a contract, are allowed in here... I'm sure you all recall the reception?""</font>, a strange dream from months back, but yes there was such a thing...<br/><br/>[color=royablue]""In any case, it appears you all have been saved by your friends from a most terrible fate""[/color], only their dungeons would come to mind... Was that real? Was this even real?<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""You... Have drawn the Moon Arcana""</font>, he began. Mako immediately realized what the ""Moon"" symbol in front of him meant. It was his arcana.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""The symbol of inspiration, creativity, and the ability to be attuned with their surrounding world without the need for signals... But all the same, it comes with manic illusions, fears coming to life when there should be nothing to fear... The delusions of a madman. You appear to have narrowly avoided the latter""</font>, he said. He drew yet another card from the deck in front of him.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""And you, the Tower Arcana. It represents pride, arrogance, and an ironic downfall as a result. I am sure you are familiar...? However with the help of your friends, or new friends, the painful fall has been avoided""</font>, like before the man named Igor drew yet another card.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""And finally, the Temperance Arcana. Those who draw this, often find themselves having difficulty balancing the things in their lives, a balance so delicate if it falls far on one end, then it could be disastrous. Such misfortune for you seems to have been avoided, and now you find harmony beyond it""</font>, and with that the cards were put away.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""You will all return here of your own volition in the future, for now I leave you this key""</font>, he clicks his fingers, and the lady standing next to him begins walking around, and placing keys in front of each of the guests.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""But until then... Farewell""</font>, and with that, they lulled back into unconsciousness, to wake up in their hospital beds shortly after.</div>"

The battle wasn't over, however. Everyone turned to Shizuka, who still had to take care of her yellow-eyed doppelganger. Sato worried for a moment as she waited for Shizu's response to what Rui had said, but that concern faded away quickly when she gave them a nod. All that was left was to watch as Shizu accepted her shadow, acknowledging what she'd been doing wrong, what she'd been trying to run away wrong. Listening to people accept their shadows like that always left a kind of ache in Sato's chest, but it always faded before long. Maybe it was an insulin spike from how sweet it was, or maybe it was a bitter feeling of remembering who he'd been. Sato didn't know how far he'd come since he had to face himself, but...<br/><br/>	Who knows what tomorrow holds. Sato gave a wry smile as he watched predictably Matt catch Shizu once she had obtained her Persona. With that done, the slender teen felt a weight lift from his chest, as they had finished what they had come to do and successfully saved Shizuka from, in a way, herself. Sato himself felt like passing out the same way Shizu had, but the thought of the others still fighting brought him back to his senses. The night wasn't done until both the rescue team and the victims were back in the real world, safe and sound.<br/><br/>	The team hurried back to their warehouse base with Shizu in tow, the navigators greeting them as they stepped through the mirror portal. It appeared that the other two squads had finished up their business safely at roughly the same time, and were just returning. All that was left was to deliver the collapsed victims to the hospital, a task Sato wanted to take but unfortunately couldn't do to being smaller than both of the guys. Matt had already left the scene with Shizu before Sato could even step out of the mirror world...<br/><br/>	In any case, Sato set his minimal equipment to the side just as an unfamiliar voice came from the hall. He turned to see who it was, but the man he saw was a complete stranger to the third-year. A brown coat and suit, combined with the tired stubble on his worn face, gave a good detective-y vibe. This guy was clearly associated with the police somehow just from how stereotypical he looked. A few of the others reasonably took defensive stances, and as if to put them at ease, he apologized and introduced himself in a roundabout manner.<br/><br/>	A co-worker of Kami's father was not who he expected (mostly because Sato didn't remember Kami's dad was a police officer or whatever), but he was in fact a detective, so Sato's intuition proved somewhat correct. He'd read enough mystery novels to know the look... More concerningly though, was the fact that the detective had just witnessed them going in and out of a magical mirror portal. The man seemed to understand they were helping though, fortunately, so Sato took a relaxed stance as he listened to the conversation, leaning against the edge of the table of their weapons.<br/><br/>	In the end however, all the man seemed to be there for was to warn them (as a concerned adult, apparently) of some of the real world dangers they were faced with, and that they could always ask for help from the police if needed. The second thing Sato doubted they'd ever necessarily call upon considering the abstract nature of the case, but the first point was... interesting. For some reason, Sato realized, he'd neglected to even think about the idea of being targeted by the cult again in one way or another. Sure, in the mirror world, he could take them down. They'd even proven it before. But, his persona ability was useless in the real world and he didn't carry any kind of self-defense measure around with him.<br/><br/>	Suffice to say, it was food for thought as Sato made his way back home in the darkness of the evening. Maybe it wouldn't be bad to invest in <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> to keep himself safe with. Just in case.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3"">Sato Hashimoto // Warakuma High, Class 3-3</div><span class=""bb-b"">JUNE 29TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Afterschool</span> <br/>	The bell resounded through-out Warakuma Highschool, and with that, the footsteps of hundreds of teens filled the rooms and halls. Sato had barely been listening to the last lecture of the day (it probably wasn't important), as he'd been so focused on remembering to go to the hospital ASAP that school seemed to move in one-quarter time. Honestly, Sato didn't even remember if it was practice or not. The night before had seemed to never end, and before he knew it, the morning sun was shining through his window... Had he even slept at all? Probably, as he managed to avoid every body that almost bumped into him in the hall as he made his way straight to the school entrance.<br/><br/>	The trip from the school to the hospital felt like a second compared to how long Sato waited in the lobby. For some reason, the courage to go up and ask for visitation to either of the victims he knew fled before he could use it. Eventually the front desk attendant finished what she was doing and looked up at Sato, raising one eyebrow. ""Who are you wanting to visit?"" She guessed, looking back down at her desk.<br/><br/>	Sato looked away from her as he walked up to the desk. ""Uh... Moritomi Mako.""<br/><br/>	A few minutes of questioning later and the attendant sent Sato off with a sticky-note with the location of Mako's room written on it. He lowered his brow as he walked through the halls, trying to figure out why he instinctively chose him out of the options. It was probably because he knew that Shizu could count on Matt coming to visit her as soon as possible, and Sato didn't even know Masahide. Not like it mattered, though, as Sato found himself looking at the correct room number on wall, the same as the one written on the note. Peering in through a slightly open door, Sato made sure that nobody was currently talking to Mako at the moment before he pushed the door open all the way and entered.<br/><br/>	""Umm... H-hey, Moritomi. It's me."" Sato said, hands awkwardly pressed to his side. He cursed himself for not bringing... <span class=""bb-i"">something</span>. A card, or flowers, or a teddy bear? They all seemed weird, like something he'd give to a girl. Not Mako. ""I just came by to check on you. Y'know, because some people in my class heard about it, and they were worried.""</div>"

He felt... surprisingly energetic, considering what had happened the last time he'd been awake. He looked around the room, eyes drinking in the blue-and-black coloring, the dinner party aesthetic. His eyes caught the other two individuals sharing the room with him, both dressed in immaculate formal attire. Which, come to think of it, he did feel rather stiff... He looked down at himself, admiring the suit he found himself in.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">...Okay. Nice. I could get used to this.</span></font> He glanced at the head of the table as he heard the voice from before speak again. And then did a double-take.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">My god... that is the longest nose I have ever seen. Why...? How...?</span></font> He wisely decided not to voice his observations as the long-nosed man went on, talking about a contract, or some such. Contract... yes. The dreams. That must be what he was talking about. Mako smiled, feeling pleased with himself at being proven correct in his assumptions.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""You...""</font><br/><br/>Mako jumped as he realized the long-nosed man- Igor- was addressing him. <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""...Have drawn the Moon Arcana.""</font> Mako raised an eyebrow, looking down at the Moon symbol in front of him. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Arcana. As in Tarot? Is that what this is about? Some sort of motif for those of us who've been chosen, or whatever?</span></font> He didn't know much about Tarot, to be honest- barely enough to know that the Moon was an Arcana, not enough to know what it meant. Luckily, Igor went on to explain to him. Mako shrank under the critique- or perhaps what he imagined as a critique- nodding silently at the man's assessment as he remembered his twisted other self. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">""Delusions of a madman."" Appropriate, I suppose, but I'm going to fix that.</span></font><br/><br/>He sat silently through the other two's assessments, only reacting when the woman he'd been seeing in his dreams began passing out keys, placing one in front of him. He picked his up, scrutinizing it, wondering how he'd be able to return here. Perhaps in his dreams. Well, other dreams, assuming he was correct in calling this a dream.<br/><br/>Igor finished speaking, bidding them farewell as Mako's vision swam, fading into blackness once again. He was getting tired of how often that seemed to be happening to him lately. He closed his eyes as darkness closed in on him...<br/><br/>==~==<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Mako Moritomi//Warakuma Hospital</div><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Monday, June 29, 2015</div><br/><br/>==~==<br/><br/>...and opened his eyes in the hospital. He looked down at the hospital gown he was clad in, sighing softly.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Hm. Wish I could have kept the suit.</span></font> He leaned back in his bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking about everything that had happened. If, indeed, it had happened, and he wasn't merely suffering some sort of psychotic delusion. He concentrated slightly, extending his awareness of himself. Including the strange, warm sensation in the back of his head, and the minor burns on his palms and knees from the flames his Shadow had released. No, this wasn't a delusion- that had all happened after all. Which meant... what exactly?<br/><br/>It was funny- now that he had the answers he'd sought, he had even more questions about this whole mess. Where had he been taken to? Where, aside from the obvious, had his Shadow come from? How did the others- and now him, he supposed- use their gifts, their... Personas? Personae? Stands? He shook his head. He'd get nowhere speculating on his own. Better that he get his answers from someone who knew, who could actually set the record straight for him.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">The four who came to save me. I should have a word with one of them. Pity I don't know any of their names- it would be easier to talk to someone I already know, and have some sort of rapport with.</span></font><br/><br/>No sooner had he thought this than his door opened, admitting one Sato Hashimoto into his room. Mako blinked, unsure whether or not the universe was doing him a favor, or simply continuing to kick him in the balls. It was probably something to do with the latter, given his luck as of late.<br/><br/>""Umm... H-hey, Moritomi. It's me,"" said Sato, shuffling nervously as he stood there at his door. ""I just came by to check on you. Y'know, because some people in my class heard about it, and they were worried.""<br/><br/>Mako couldn't help it- he smiled, even chuckled weakly. It was rather... cute, yes, fine, <span class=""bb-i"">cute</span>- that he was being so coy about coming to see him. And especially about why and how he came to know he was here. Mako raised an eyebrow, still smiling warmly. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Heard from your classmates, eh? Those... those wouldn't happen to be the ones who came and saved me... would they?""</font> He paused for a second before continuing. <font color=""#0076a3"">""I'm not off-base in saying that, am I? That you know what happened to me? Because... because it's what happened to you? It's all conjecture, I admit- inferences and such. But there's too many coincidences, too many things that are the same. There's too much I can't ignore about what happened to the both of us, so I'm going to assume that your kidnapping happened in much the same manner as mine did?""</font><br/><br/>He frowned then, realizing something. <font color=""#0076a3"">""The... the other two. The ones who were with me at the cafe, when we were taken. They're okay, right? They're alive?""</font><br/><br/></div>"

Instead, his thoughts kept hearkening back to the events of the throne room, and the words exchanged with his 'shadow'. Even now, his embarrassment was unbearable, a wound on his pride larger than any of his failures. Not only was his innermost thoughts exposed, but those very ideals put several others in danger. As his eyes began to open and take in the sights of the Velvet Room, the shock of the prior events dulling his reaction to a mere raise in his brow. A peculiar place, complete with a peculiar duo, and two others that seemed around his age dressed in attire matching the venue- including himself. It was only when the man named Igor began to speak, that Masa turned his attention from his surroundings to the nose that spoke to him... Or rather, that's how it would seem. Still, the boy stood in silence as the man spoke, taking his key in turn before idly running his gloved hand over the metal. All at once, the words of Igor began to drone on, a dark curtain begining to fall around Masahide's vision, and before he knew it- he was unconscious yet again.<br/><br/>	As his eyes opened to a more familiar venue, the blue suit that once adorned his person was replaced with a typical hospital gown, the subtle and rhythmic beeping of monitors relaying his vital signs through a rather simple display. Turning over, Masahide felt sore throughout his entire body... But oddly revitalized in a completely different fashion. He felt at peace, or at least alright with his current situation, though a bit of confusion couldn't be dodged. Instead, now he focused on learning the truth... There was more going on then what had been spoken about in whispers and rumors. As he attempted to raise himself from the bed, he felt his body resisting the movement, resulting in only him sitting in his bed. Looking about, he made note of the door and the table at his side, the brightness of the sun outside the window and the familiar chill that hospital rooms most often held. Even now, he couldn't help but chuckle at his situation, sitting in silence as his smile quickly faded.<br/><br/>	""Tyr."" Masahide muttered under his breath, glancing down at his hand which once held the key to what he assumed was the Velvet Room.<br/><br/> </div>"

Unfortunately, Mako seemed to see through his little white lie and went straight to the point. Rui didn't seem to be here yet, so Sato leaned his shoulder against the wall next to the door and started explaining. ""You're correct. We're the ones that saved you, but you don't know the others. And you're right about the kidnapping... All of us are the past victims of the cultist kidnappings, and they all went the same way: abduction, almost commit a form of suicide, and then face yourself."" Sato smiled to himself, glad that Mako would never get to know what he'd went through. His shadow... was less than nice. ""If you recall, after you accepted your shadow-- the 'other you', I mean--, you saw a figure, correct? That means you've gained the persona ability, and you can use a persona. It's a bit complicated, so I'll let our leader talk to you about it, but know that you now have a power only us few have. I won't force you, but you'd be a great help on our team if you'd like to join.""<br/><br/>	""As for the others,"" Sato continued, stopping to remember their faces as if to check if they were really alive. ""You don't have to worry. They're fine, but they also went through the same thing you went through. I haven't talked to them yet, so I don't know what they said about any of this. So, umm... I guess you should wait for a guy named Shinichi Rui, our leader. I'm not really prepared to explain everything, but he's done it enough that he's probably memorized what to say by now.""<br/><br/>	Sato pushed off from the wall, smoothing off his uniform as he stood up-right. ""I'm sorry, but I don't have any of the notes you missed today. We're in different years after all. Hopefully someone will come by and get those to you soon."" This was going... awkwardly. Usually Rui showed up first and he could just saw hi and stand to the side. It was oddly suffocating being alone with a patient. That was probably something he'd have to get used to, later on... Mako wasn't a patient though, but was he a friend? Their relationship was so weird that is was hard to decipher where they stood. Either way, Sato found himself without much else to say, and that meant the only thing left was cheesy garbage. ""I'm really glad you're okay. You guys, I mean. I'd like to hope nobody else will get hurt, and I hate to be negative, but that's probably just wishful thinking. This is just the start of whatever those cultists are plotting... Foiling this plan only means they're going to try again or try something new, and I'm not sure which is more frightening.""</div>"

He sighed internally in relief as Sato explained that every one of his fellow kidnap victims had gone through the same thing he had. Good. He'd have hated to be the only one whose entire psyche had been dissected and shown to all who cared to witness. He supposed he was grateful that Sato hadn't been at the scene of his personal misfortune, at that- he wasn't sure his senpai would be able to tolerate being around him, knowing what kind of filth he'd been carrying inside.<br/><br/>He let out an almost explosive sigh of relief upon hearing that the other two who'd been with them were all right. He'd hoped as much, considering he'd seen them in that place, the Velvet Room- until then, he hadn't even known how many victims there were, aside from him. He couldn't be sure until then, however, whether or not the others had survived. He didn't know the mechanics of all of this, he was stuck with conjecture until someone could clarify. Knowing that there had been no fatalities in this situation was a tremendous weight off his shoulders.<br/><br/>He blinked in mild shock when Sato mentioned who the leader of their little outfit was, then smiled. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Shinichi-san, huh? Heh. That's... actually funny. I'd figured he might be a part of this, since I see you and the others together all the time, but the leader? Couldn't have guessed that. I look forward to talking with him, then- can't very well do anything if I don't know what's going on.""</font> He frowned as Sato stood straighter, acting awkwardly with him, apologizing for... nothing, really. As he finished, Mako forced himself to sit up a little straighter in his bed, looking Sato in the eyes.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well... it's like you told me when we went out for lunch- whoever gets targeted next, whoever those bastards try to hurt, they won't get away without someone stepping in to help. You- all of you, Rui and whoever else is involved- you saved the three of us. And lots of others besides. Yeah, it's scary that I got kidnapped. Yeah, we could have gotten hurt. But we didn't- we're alive. And it's all because you and the others stepped up and refused to let us get hurt. That's... pretty damn amazing.<br/><br/>""You know, I've been having dreams all year- dreams of that 'Velvet Room' place, and that woman. You know what I'm talking about right? Mentioning some contract, some destiny that I was going to help fulfill. 'The ability to carve an interesting future.' I think I know what she was talking about now. I think... I'm supposed to help you guys. If that makes sense. Heh... what a relief, finally knowing what the hell's going on. I thought I was going crazy!<br/><br/>""So... I guess what I'm trying to say is, 'thank you.' For saving me and the others, and anyone else you've saved, and for helping me solve a problem I've been dying to know the answer to for a while. And don't worry- the next time those cultist bastards do their thing, you'll have help. I owe those fuckers some payback- for what they did to me, and to everyone else.

The day was lazy and there was not much to do at school, people were actually fussing about the kidnapping and that the three were actually alright, a lot of strange rumors were going around too that there's actually gang violence going on in this little town, since the display was so bold and very gang-like... That made Rui consider some perspectives, and with Kami having gone off to investigate today after this was mentioned, he probably felt something about that line too...<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I guess that makes things easier... Don't worry, we rescued the other two as well. I asked the nurses and they said they're in their rooms, they're just down the hall""</font>, he said.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""And the Velvet Room...?""</font>, he recalls that the visions were becoming clearer each time they rescued someone. The silhouettes would fill each time he drifted there in a dream. And that key they were given... He slipped his hand into his pocket and despite there being nothing in there before, he felt a key, and as he pulled it out, it was the very key he was given.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Yeah, there's a strange thing though, I can't find the door this fits in... I'm sure it will become clearer later, each time we rescue someone the seats fill up and become clearer. I think we should simply focus on the task at hand""</font>, he suggested, putting it away.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""For now we just need you to rest up. I'll go and see the others and see how they're faring""</font>, and with that he left.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/leolycan"">@Leolycan</a><br/><br/>Rui didn't personally see to Masahide's rescue, so this might be awkward considering he wouldn't recognize him, but probably the best thing to do here was be direct.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Masahide right...? You must be thinking about a lot of what just happened. I'm the field leader for the... Rescues, the reason I'm here is simple. You can join us, and lend us your strength with your Persona... Or you can just forget it all and live a comfortable life... I know this is strange coming from someone who is almost a complete stranger, but you know the police won't believe what you've seen""</font>, Rui stepped over by the bedside and was ready to take a seat. He felt the answer was already decided before he walked in here, he didn't seem frantic, or scared, so the likelihood of him shying away was low in his opinion. Still, it was rude to immediately assume.</div>"

Thinking about, Sato listened to the hospitalized teen go on about it. Rui was actually a pretty good fit, all things considered. He was cool, calm, collected, aware, powerful, worked well with everyone... It was almost like he was made to be in command. Sato gave a small sigh, disappointed he couldn't be like that. Well, at least it saved Sato the trouble of having to deal with all the new recruits like Rui did. Talking to someone you knew was one thing, but there was no way that Rui was friends with every victim considering the variety of years and cliques they were all in.<br/><br/>	Sato couldn't help but smile when Mako brought up the time they went out for lunch together. It would've almost been like a date had it not been for the serious topic matter that resulted in Sato ditching ten minutes in. It was a bit embarrassing to look back on, but to Sato, it was only normal to feel overwhelmed by the whole thing. He'd always just tried to soldier on so nobody else would have to get hurt, but was that really a good thing to do? ""You sound like I did back then, Mako."" Sato gave a forced laugh. ""I guess I'm not as tough as you then, since I was pretty hurt at first. Sorry about bailing on you.""<br/><br/>	Mako continued on talking, and what he had to say next was significantly more interesting. Sato had completely forgotten about the dreams, since they hadn't been too frequent since he got his persona. ""I thought that was just me too. The dreams about that room... I don't know what it is, but what that nose guy was talking about definitely meant something. I just wish there was some way to <span class=""bb-i"">go</span> there. If it were real that is."" He sighed again, this time one of defeat. There was no use trying to figure out something this detached from reality. ""I don't want to say 'you're welcome' after saving you, but... no problem? Well, regardless, I'm glad to hear you're going to be joining us, as more help is always appreciated.""<br/><br/>	Sato was about to say his good-byes, but just before he could, a voice came from behind him. Sato had no idea how long Rui had been there, but the boy spoke up about how the other two victims were just down the hall. He continued on to discuss the room they were talking about-- the 'Velvet Room'--, and pulled something out of his pocket.<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-i"">The key!</span> Sato had forgotten all about that, as he'd been trying to figure out what the hell was going on the whole time it was being introduced. Instinctively, Sato reached into his pocket to see if it was there, and to his shock, he pulled his hand pulled out a deep blue key. As Rui had said, he'd never seen anything around Warakuma that seemed to match it, and he sure as hell wasn't about to go sticking it in locks all over the place, so  he disregarded it for the time being. ""Yeah, there probably isn't much of a point in trying to figure this mystery out for now. You should probably be taking it easy right now anyway."" Sato shrugged and put his hand back in his pants pocket.<br/><br/>	Before he knew it, the key had disappeared without a trace, so Sato withdrew his arm and instead gave a quick wave to Rui as he left to go talk to the rest of the fresh recruits. Once again alone with Mako, Sato figured he should follow suit and leave too, but struggled to find the words to dismiss himself, but as he forced himself to walk over to the door, he found something to say. ""See you at school tomorrow."" With that, Sato left as well. Right before stepping out though, he gave one last look to Mako, one like he looked at the sun. As in, a fleeting glance that he immediately regretted. <br/><br/>	The door shut behind him with a bit of a slam, causing a nurse to look at him funny. Sato muttered an apology and started down back to the hospital's entrance. The front-desk lady gave him a half-assed wave as he passed by and out the doors. The air outside was cool for the season, which Sato considered a good thing seeing as they were starting to get into summer. Thinking of the summer reminded Sato that he was still wearing his uniform, as he had taken a b-line straight from school to the hospital. <br/><br/>	People walked in and out of the hospital, some going to visit their loved ones after work or having done so already. Sato never did like hospitals, nor the thought of working within one for the rest of his working life. But the people inside were another story, and Sato wondered if they would make it worth it... <br/><br/>	He scoffed at himself. There was a whole mirror world dungeon about that whole thing, but, maybe. It was worth considering.</div>"

As the whole acceptance spiel began, she recounted the battle. This initial focus were on using spells but in the end, it was all physical violence that ended up deciding this one. With a sign to mourn her lost time, and the others finishing up their touching moment, Matt picked up the unconscious girl and signaled an end to their little dungeon run.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abandoned Warehouse</span><br/><br/>With Matt having long since left to bring Shizuka to the hospital, with Megumi tagging along, the rest of them were left to wait on the results of the other dungeons. Luckily, the wait wasn't long as Kami and Tadao soon came back with targets in tow. Tadao and Alexei then left to bring them to the hospital, and just when they were about to call it a night, a voice was heard from the darkness. <br/><br/>Instinctively, Akane reached for her weapon but when his figure came into view and was identified as police, she put some distance from him. From the looks of things, it seemed that Rui and co encountered him before. Great, a cop saw us and now knows where the hideout is. Despite the tone of his voice indicating he means no harm, the fact is a cop knows and chances are, he'll be around again. And the last thing Akane wants is a cop hanging around and start digging. She glared at Kami with a 'you dumbass' kind of look.<br/><br/>Even if the chances of it are slim, the last thing she wants is for the cops to start digging into her background. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, I'm sure it's fine for now... </span>She thought as she glared at his retreating back. Once he was gone, she eased up and breathed a sign of relief. Moments after the detective left, Rui spoke up and suggested they head home and rest and think over this another time. Akane didn't need to think twice on that, after all, she needed to get home and start drawing before her inspiration leaves her.

Would like it considering she's basing the choice in genre on what she seen in the dungeon, the dating sim among other things....but you never know.<br/><br/>Arriving at the hospital, she went in the front entrance amid a uncomfortable amount of eyes baring down on her. Mostly from those that remember her last visit when all of her fathers men swarmed the hospital. With her initial dislike of hospitals, mixed in with the unwanted attention making her even more uncomfortable, she went up to the front desk and asked the lady at the desk if they can deliver it to Shizuka Otonashi's room for her. <br/><br/>Before handing the package over, she stuck a sticky note on it with her name on it, a ""welcome to the team"" comment finishing with an in-direct recruitment message noting where to find her (the manga clubroom) and that she should drop by sometime. With that, she left the hospital and headed back home.</div>"

Looking carefully along the table, she noticed that there were two people who were not mere black silhouettes and recognized them both. Mako, a loyal customer to the cosplay cafe, and Masahide, an upperclassman of hers, were seated at the table wearing fanciful outfits that varied from the others. If she stared long enough, she could notice a silhouette that resembled Matt's but it seemed as if he was not physically present at the moment, who also wore something he would normally not wear without an occasion.<br/><br/>A moment afterwards, Shizuka felt something atop her lap, what appeared to be a lacy blue and black parasol and as her gaze went downward from inspecting the umbrella, her eyes sparkled from how fabulous her current outfit was. It resembled a gothic lolita fashion but it leaned towards a formal theme as well. Each intricate and elegant detail on the gloves, the flow of the dress, the lacing pattern, Shizuka scanned through them with a seamstress' eyes as if it had given inspiration to tailor dresses of this theme.<br/><br/>A sudden voice caused the maiden to shift her gaze towards... what appeared to be a strange man with a long nose. Shaking her head to cease herself from being distracted from the strange appearance of the man, Shizuka listened carefully to what he had to say. A contract? She could only recall one situation where she might have, but wasn't that only from a dream?<br/><br/>Being told that she had drawn the Temperance Arcana, she stared down at the symbol she couldn't figure out what it had meant and nodded her head slowly in understanding as he explained what meaning it held. The teen looked back at how her life was recently, and he was certainly right about the loss of balance in her activities. Being told such made her a little conscious, but after facing herself at the strange dungeon, she had decided to be more truthful about her habit and perhaps tone it down to make time for other activities as well.<br/><br/>After receiving the key from the lady in blue, everything went dark once more.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Shizuka Otonashi || Warakuma Hospital || June 29 MON: After School</div><br/>When Shizuka came to, what her eyes first saw was a white ceiling. Where was she now?  While attempting to sit up, she noticed how immaculate white the room was and realized she was in a hospital room. Before the patient could react to the situation, a familiar female voice screamed her name, <span class=""bb-b"">""Shizuka! Thank goodness, you're finally awake!""</span>, and a sudden hug just as she straightened up. It was her mother. Astonished by the appearance of her mother, her eyes widened and as she quickly scanned through the room, Shizuka noticed that her father, dressed in his doctor's uniform, was seated by her bedside as well.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Mo-Mother...? Father...? W-What happened?""</font> While she was surprised by the presence of her two always-too-busy-to-spend-time-with-her parents, it was more of a pleasant surprise to her. But how did she end up in the hospital after the whole crazy ordeal back at the fantasy stage place?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""A boy from your school brought you here at the middle of the night yesterday, claiming to have found you unconscious somewhere.""</span>, her father spoke in his ever solemn tone. <span class=""bb-b"">""He seemed to have been hiding <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> but rest assured, we found no injuries of any sort when you were brought here.""</span> He adjusted his glasses with a cold yet menacing look in his eyes as if he was ready to stab any boy who neared her daughter.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Oh Shizuka, we were worried sick when the police first informed us of your kidnapping in a horrifying gang incident! It's all both of our fault for not keeping a close eye on you despite all the rumors of the kidnappings in your school! We're sorry, Shizuka... *Sob* It's all our fault...""</span> The embrace from her mother tightened as she felt warm tears drop along her back, her arms raised themselves to return the embrace, tears rolling down her cheeks at how sincerely worried they must have been for her.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""I... I... was lonely every time you a-and father left me to myself... I-I just kept it to myself be-because I wanted to be an obedient c-child... Bu-But mother, father, please... do-don't leave me alone.""</font> The tears she held back all those years started streaming down as Shizuka kept sobbing and crying. Hearing this, her mother's hand gently rubbed her daughter's back as her sobs became louder at the realization of their neglect. They both must've known this but had they failed to notice this due to Shizuka not saying anything?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">""We should've known you've always felt this way but... This should not be an excuse and we're both deeply sorry about it but your mother and I have been working harder recently to work on this.""</span> Shizuka's father held out a clear file filled with sketches of different dresses and outfits, but they all had one similarity: the model of the sketches was Shizuka. Her mother released Shizuka from her embrace so that she may scan through the papers properly and once she reached the back area, there were several blueprints of a runway stage and a party hall.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""W-What is all this...?""</font> What were they preparing for, to be this grand? Was their any occasion close by? There weren't any that Shizuka could recall. <span class=""bb-b"">""It might be too early but these are drafts for your 20th birthday, dear. We... just wanted to celebrate your coming of age with the best of our abilities but we neglected you in doing so... We're truly sorry for being bad parents to you, Shizuka.""</span><br/><br/>Shizuka's mother flashed a melancholic smile and Shizuka responded to their apology with a shake of her head with a soft yet genuine smile. <font color=""violet"">""You're not terrible, mother, father. In the end, you were doing all of this for me and I appreciate all the effort and work you've done for my coming of age. But... It would be delightful if we had more time to spend together. If both of you are off work any time this summer holidays, could we have a trip to Tokyo, please?""</font><br/><br/>This was the first time Shizuka asked her parents in a childish manner and the two of them couldn't help but smile and give in to her request. After settling down a little, Shizuka started to sketch the fanciful dress in her dream and explained her hobby that she had kept from her mother and father. Her mother didn't particularly   mind, in fact, she was happy that Shizuka was able to expand her tailoring skills more by this hobby. Her father was not totally against it but was worried by the fact that his daughter could fall victim to molestors because of the outfits she would wear and the two could feel the murderous intent from the worrywart father.<br/><br/>A nurse had dropped in quickly just to give Shizuka something they had received from a visitor. The maiden wondered who it was from and read ""From Akane Hanazawa"" on the sticky note. I-It's from the president of the manga club! Her memory might be blurry but if she remembered right, was the lone girl from her rescue team that same upperclassman? She wasn't sure but Shizuka couldn't wait to go back to school and finally enter the club room with her new found courage! The manga the upperclassman seems to have given her was something she recognized, but had yet to read. Was it something about a love triangle between a princess, prince and a servant? She couldn't really remember but at least she had something to pass the time by while her stay at the hospital.</div>"

But as soon as he got to the room Matt froze at the door to the room for a moment and stared at the small bundle of Jasmine flowers and lavender in his hand. Smelling them Matt calmed himself, he chose those two for the different remedies they are used in… now they seemed to be there  to help him as he opened the door.<br/><br/>“Uh.. Shizu how are yo-.....” Matt trailed off as he almost dropped the bundle, if he could explain why he stopped it would merely be that he felt as if he was surrounded by angry foxes in the middle of the night… or worse stuck in the water as a croc swam up with jaws wide open.<br/><br/>Matt was surprised to only see a human after that feeling of a killer finding its prey.<br/><br/>“Ah there's already people here….

At first he tried to dismiss it as only a dream- or a nightmare to be more precise. But no matter how hard he tried to dismiss the thought, it always felt like he knew the truth. With a subtle sigh and shake of his head, Masa resigned himself to the truth of the matter, instead now pondering on the being he had witnessed a moment before losing consciousness. He tried not to question any longer if any of this was real, but rather why- the exact same question he now aimed at 'Tyr'. The viking god of justice and honor? The one who bound the great wolf and postponed the Ragnarok? In his studies and leisurely reading, he found himself often fascinated by the stories of folk-heroes and the many myth's and legends of the world... Perhaps this was the reason why the creature took on that name? Or perhaps it was more symbolic.<br/><br/>	This train of thought was cut short however, as the sound of creaking metal drew the bows attention. Sure enough, the door to his room had been opened and now was currently closing behind a male he had only seen once before. He was at the gaming tournament some time ago, and even exchanged words with Masahide- few though they were. Shaking his head, Masa sat himself back in the bed, dismissing the need to question his appearance... There were already to many unanswered questions.<br/><br/>	However, it was when he began speaking that Masahide sat up once more, ignoring the tensing and aching of his muscles as his eyes narrowed in concentration on the boy. He knew? And above all, he claimed to be the leader some sort of rescue operation? As Rui's speech came to a close, Masa narrowed his eyes even further, his idle expression now fading into an outright frown. At first, he opened his mouth to speak on the foolishness of it all, and how they'd only be getting in the way... But there was something about his closing argument that rang true. If he told this to his mother, she'd have him hospitalized for a mental breakdown- the same probably true for Yamato. Also, the police would have a hard enough time believing that a group of kids were banding together to stop a cult, and that's before adding in the more 'fantastic' elements...<br/><br/>	""... You already know I can't forget."" Masahide spoke knowingly, his gaze shifting back to Rui as his expression softened- if only slightly, ""But I don't like the idea of storming off against an unknown enemy either- least of all with people that could get in the way."" The young man gave a moment of pause as he began to size up Rui's psychical form, but paused a moment as he came to a realization.<br/><br/>	""You say 'your Persona', meaning Tyr most likely, but your choice of words indicates there are others with the same ability as me- and most likely you."" Masa spoke pointedly, turning to now face the male fully. Even now, the his subconscious was screaming at him to turn the offer down and ignore this madness that made no sense to a logical mind... But another voice chimed in. This one was more comforting, more confident, and it was strongly pushing Masahide to accept the offer.<br/><br/>	""... Alright."" Masahide finally spoke after a moment of silence, ""I'll join in on this venture. I don't like the idea of it, but I like the idea of doing nothing even less.""</div>"

As they arrived at the entrance and found themselves at the strange crossroads once more, Kotori looked about for the other groups with a mixture of worry and hopefulness - though it quickly turned to relief when it became clear that both of the other groups too had been successful and had managed to rescue the remainings kidnappees. In fact, just moments laters she could see the groups approaching - all of whom were present and carrying both Mako and Shizuka respectively. There was little time for more than a brief confirmations of everyone's well-being before the three headed out first and were thus on their way to deliver the kidnapping victims to the hospital, leaving the rest to gather at the warehouse.<br/><br/>However, rather than a round of congratulations, the first thing to be heard was an unfamiliar voice - leading Kotori to nearly jump in surprise as, like most everyone, she spun around to the source. Had the cult somehow tracked them down? Were they being attacked again? Kotori's mind immediately rushed to such conclusions - at least until she realised that there was only a single person standing there. As it turned out, he was no cultist but rather a police detective - at which point Kotori immediately began trying to think of some way to explain all the situation; what with having read her fair share of mystery novels in which an officer of the police found some strange things being afoot and unwittingly interfered.<br/><br/>Except that it turned out to not be necessary at all when the detective - who was starting to seem vaguely familiar, though that was unsurprising with the number of police officers around town recently - explained that instead he wasn't here to arrest some unruly kids but rather to let them know that they should take care in their dealings with these cultists - and that it all sounded rather incredulous even after seeing the mirror; a sentiment that Kotori still shared after having seen the Mirror World multiple times already. Once the detective left, there was little mood for merrymaking and instead the group quickly disbanded to leave on their separate ways home.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Monday, June 29 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>School had, for the most part, been a little on the unsual side, Kotori noticed. With the double absence of Mako and Masahide as well as Shizuka one year below them, the rumours were flying as after every kidnapping. By the time lunch break came around, Kotori had heard the blame being placed on the cult, an attempted runaway, aliens and a top secret government project - among other things. Being part of the same club as the third kidnapping victim, some of her classmates asked her if she knew anything more - but Kotori vehemently denied knowing anything more, leaving the rumour-mongerers to their own devices. After all, experience showed that this sort of thing rather quickly died down as soon as the people in question showed up well and healthy at school again.<br/><br/>Besides, as the school bell rang to signal the end of the day's last lesson, interests quickly shifted to more pleasant afterschool activities as the usual hustle and bustle broke out with the students packing their things and heading out to club meetings, friends' classrooms or simply home. Kotori exchanged a brief few waves or quicky goodbyes with the occasional few that spoke as they passed her seat whilst she, as usual, finished up her notes for the day before she too would be heading out; giving a friendly nod to Akane as she passed her. With her own things all packed up, both the classroom and the hallway was a lot less crowded than just a few minutes ago - leaving Kotori to sigh, albeit for another reason.<br/><br/>In particular, the topic of hospital visits - she still wasn't very comfortable with hospitals, so the prospect of going there of her own volition was not one which appealed very much. Still, it would be most rude to not at least wish Shizuka well in person after she'd done the same for her earlier - not that that stopped her from immediately worrying if that might seem a little too familiar if she just showed up unannounced. But then again, she'd been glad to see her visitors...<br/><br/>Kotori still hadn't made up her mind when she arrived at the Agriculture Club room. It was a monday and thus normally a meeting day - but in light of the events the day before, she was fairly sure that Matthew would already be at the hospital. A small smile adorned her face at the thought - even if she immediately felt a little guilty for finding the notion cute when it came on the back of the circumstances surrounding the cult. Still, even with no club meeting going on there were plants of all shapes and sizes, and colours and smells that would be quite cross if they didn't get their regular watering - an act that Kotori always enjoyed for its soothing nature, even as she made up her mind about the visits.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Hospital | After School</span><br/><br/>Kotori took a deep breath to calm herself as she walked down the hallways she'd been pointed to by the friendly lady at the reception after inquiring about the room numbers of the three most recent kidnapping victims. She tried telling herself that there was no rational reason to be nervous - but she couldn't help but feel ill at ease around hospitals; no matter how nice the staff may be or how occasionally a nurse would recognise her and give a friendly wave which got a rather small response. Still, she wasn't here for her own sake - shaking her head as if to get rid of those thoughts, Kotori headed onwards, glancing up at the room numbers until she found the one she sought; taking another deep breath before giving the door a somewhat faint knock.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... excuse me,""</font> Kotori began before gingerly opening the door; hoping she wasn't interrupting anything. <font color=""green"">""Good afternoon, Oto...nashi-san,""</font> she said, giving a bow as she did, before holding up a small bouquet of flowers she'd brought with her as a hopeful wish of recovery - whilst immediately regretting the previous decision when she saw who happened to be in the room. Not only were Shizuka and Matthew present, but also two more people who Kotori could only assume to be Shizuka's parents - and given the look about the father just then, she further assumed that she'd chosen a most definitely inopportune time to show up. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... I... I-I'll come back later,""</font> she quickly said as she retraced her steps out of the room, closing the door behind her - and only then stopping to take a breath after blundering in in such an awkward manner.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, that also left her standing outside with three similarly-coloured bouquets still in her arm. She'd intended to visit Shizuka foremost, seeing as they were fellow club members and had actually exchanged more than just very occasional words of greetings, but with the other two - Mako and Masahide - both being her classmates, Kotori would have felt amiss to not at least pay them a brief visit when she was already there. And with the visit to Shizuka most definitely being pushed back for an unspecified amount of time, she decided to instead see to the other two. After all, they may be equally as confused about the whole ordeal as she had been if no one else happened to visit them to explain how things were.<br/><br/>Gingerly opening the door and quickly peering inside to avoid a similar show as before after having knocked gently on it, Kotori noticed that the room had more than one occupant. As it turned out, Rui was indeed already on the case and seemed to have both given the brief explanation of the Mirror World and extended an invitation to Masahide - at least, that's what the few words Kotori picked up as she entered sounded like. Still, preferring to be safe rather than sorry, Kotori hesitantly spoke up: <font color=""green"">""E-excuse me?""</font> Giving a quick bow, she in turn greeted both Rui and Masahide before going on: <font color=""green"">""Uhm, I hope I'm not interrupting anything,""</font> quickly glancing between the two to make sure.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I just thought a get-well-soon gift would be nice,""</font> she continued, her voice trailing off a little as she held up the flowers she intended as a gift - only now realising that perhaps flowers weren't exactly the most desirable sort of gift for a boy after all; leaving her to give an awkward half-smile as she stood in the middle of the room unsure how to proceed.</div>"

He had no idea if it was appropriate for someone he barely knew but figured he should check up on the person whose life he just saved.

Shizuka gasped softly at who it was, Matthew Harvester. After the events from the previous day, which were still questionable to have really happened first of all, she found it as a surprise that the upperclassmen would decide to see her. Though the visit was not undesirable, no, in fact it was more of a pleasant surprise. She knew that she had to have a talk with him at one point.<br/><br/>The mother who was out of the loop looked to the father then to Shizuka as if to have either of them introduce who this boy was and who he was to his daughter. A small, teasing smile was upon her lips as she did so. The father, who was continuing to glare daggers at him, noticed this and started, <span class=""bb-b"">""That's the boy who brought Shizuka in here the night before.""</span> Hearing this, Mrs. Otonashi's smile became wider as she turned her gaze towards the boy.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Um... T-This is Harvester-senpai, my upperclassman at school and the president of the club I've joined recently. And these are my parents.""</font> Shizuka could feel how awkward Matthew must be feeling in the presence of her parents and at how hard her father was glaring at the boy. She felt embarrassed at how her spectacled father was being as she looked to her mother for help.<br/><br/>After seeing the helpless expression from her daughter, Shizuka's mother sighed and pulled the father's arm as she stood up. <span class=""bb-b"">""It was nice to meet you and we're very much grateful for finding our dear Shizuka, Ha-Har... Harvester-kun? But we'll be taking our leave--""</span> It was just then that another person had opened the door to the room.<br/><br/>This time, it was a young lady who seemed to be about Shizuka's age as well. No glares were given this time but even before anyone could say anything, the spectacled girl left and shut the door behind her. Shizuka was about to order her to stay but before she could open her lips, she was gone.<br/><br/>The awkwardness in the room settled in once more as the mother decided it was time to leave the two alone for whatever Shizuka may have wanted to tell him. It took a great effort to convince the father who refused to budge from this room to finally leave and as they did, the room was filled with awkward silence as Shizuka shifted her gaze towards the flowers in Matthew's hand.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""I-I don't suppose those are for me...? Shirohane-senpai seemed to have brought her own too.""</font> The maiden giggled slightly at the thought of how the two agriculture club members who had come to visit her had both brought her flowers. Smiling at how thoughtful the gesture was, it slowly faded as her gaze fell to the white tiled floor. <font color=""violet"">""About... yesterday. It... it was real, wasn't it....? And if it was, .... I-I'm terribly sorry, senpai.""</font><br/><br/>The situation proceeding after entering the room made Matt’s mouth dry as he produced a few beads of sweat that rolled down his face until a slightly amusing moment occurred that slightly lifted the heaviness in the room as someone seemed to open the door and close it just as suddenly. Though the awkwardness didn’t leave the father was finally convinced to leave though he didn’t seem to be very willing even as he left.<br/><br/>With the awkwardness setting in more the silence was broken With Shizu’s seemingly slightly awkward comments, which left Matt speechless for a few moments though it seemed a lot longer.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">“Hahaa… yea it’s kinda the only thing i know to bring…”</font> Matt tried to start his reply light as it started to trail to more serious aspects.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">“As hard as it is to get your head around it was all real… and well…. It’s fine… I mean… Everyone's been through something like that in a way…. To be honest in the end it reminded me of my experience…”</font> Trying hard to not sound too awkward about it Matt scratched the back of his head as he started to remember his experience more.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""So uhh... got anything you wanna talk about?""</font><br/><br/>Having been told that the events from the previous day were indeed real, Shizuka had to take a moment to think, recall even, what did all this remind her of? She was pretty sure this experience was all too familiar. Perhaps from a novel? No, maybe a web comic?<br/><br/>Either way, unlike how most people would react, she was a little excited that she could experience something extraordinary and it not being just a dream. But like the others, there was a part of her who feared the evident danger which was involved in what they did. Did all the kidnappees feel this way too? .... Did Matt feel this way too?<br/><br/>Shizuka snapped out of her thoughts when the upperclassman ended with a question. The maiden could feel her heart sink slowly, figuring they would have to confront the issue at one point. Eyes hid themselves behind her long bangs as she directed her gaze down. <font color=""violet"">""Actually... I do. But... This'll not be <span class=""bb-i"">pleasant</span>.""</font><br/><br/>The girl's hands squeezed themselves together atop her lap, holding in her anxiety as best as she could, as her lips parted once more, <font color=""violet"">""As you've heard the other me yesterday, I... I may have been infatuated with the <span class=""bb-i"">concept</span> of love. I-It... does not give me an e-excuse to have been easily swayed by these feelings to have... <span class=""bb-i"">hurt</span> you in such a way.""</font> Hands started to tremble and if he looked closely, he could see a teardrop glitter along her cheek.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Harvester-senpai.... Let us part ways.""</font> A melancholic smile made its way upon her lips as Shizuka's teary gaze lifted up to look Matt in his eyes.<br/><br/>Listening in Matt’s expression was… complicated, it wasn’t as if what Shizuka said never went through his mind as a possibility but it still… hurt.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">“It’s not as If i wasn’t expecting something like this with what happened… but…”</font> Matt spent a moment to gather his thoughts on what he would say next. <font color=""#aba000"">“I’ll be honest... before this all started i was a liar to everyone around me and to myself, I played the role people felt most comfortable around to not be alone. I lied to myself pushing my real desires aside for the sake of a public image, playing others… and myself for fools”</font> Matt laughed bitterly for a moment.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">“Sorry for the stupid rambling guess I’ll get to the point, I get what you're saying but I’ve decided to start being honest with myself as well with others….”</font> Scratching his head again Matt continued <font color=""#aba000"">“I don’t want to break up, It might just be me being selfish but I really don’t…. What happened made me realise… anyway if you really think there isn’t a chance let me know but…. I guess I should leave and give you time to think… Bye”</font><br/><br/>With that Matthew left the hospital room holding back his tears… mostly.<br/><br/>Before Shizuka had the time to gather her thoughts and respond to the upperclassman, he was gone before her eyes, leaving Shizuka to herself and her thoughts, as well as the bundle of jasmine and lavender that the older boy had brought. It might've been a slight glance but was that a drop of tear at the corner of his eye?<br/><br/>With no one else left in the room but her, the melancholic smile upon Shizuka's lips eventually faded away as she ceased to thoughtfully gaze towards the flower. While slowly burying her face onto her hands, she finally released the tears she desperately held back, her quiet sobbing echoing throughout the room. Was this really the right thing to do...?</div>"

She'd given them a small greeting after the somewhat awkward visits back at the hospital when she'd realised that she didn't really know what to do on such a visit and they had thus turned out to be of rather short duration - and she'd asked the nurse at the front desk if they could deliver the flowers to Shizuka's room after one run-in with her parents and Matthew had been enough embarassment for one day.<br/><br/>Of course, as with every kidnapping, and increasingly so with each new case, the rumours had been flying the day before and the two had undoubtedly been swamped with questions from curious classmates and others the moment they set foot on school grounds, if not before. Kotori felt some sympathy for them at the attention; particularly considering that it would most likely be a bit difficult to explain what actually happened, what with the mirror world sounding rather fantastical even after experiencing it for oneself multiple times already.<br/><br/>However, the buzz surrounding the kidnappings was easily replaced by the excitement for the upcoming summer break that was fast approaching - though the teachers were quick to curb this with a reminder of the upcoming final exams. Kotori looked toward them with rather mixed feelings - on one hand, she'd been sure to uphold her note-keeping, regularly done her homework and tried to keep to her study schedule at home as much as she could. On the other though, the mirror world excursions and increasingly worrying rate of kidnappings were definitely not very conductive to a studious mindset at the moment. Some of her classmates however didn't share such worries and had instead asked if she might be able to help them out - though Kotori had to apologetically turn them down, given that opportunity for any study groups tended to fall on inconvenient days on which she was to help out at the store at home or on the weekend which she'd almost grown accustomed to being reserved for rescue operations in the mirror world.<br/><br/>With a small sigh, Kotori finished up her notes for the day; the bell signalling the end thereof having already rung out some time before and thus left the classroom quite a bit emptier than before. A brief flash of movement from the windows caught her attention - but when she looked, nothing out of the ordinary was to be seen anymore. With a slightly puzzled look upon her face, Kotori simply shook her head at that before readjusting her glasses and proceeding to pack her school bag and head out of the classroom; her mind not yet made up on whether to stop by somewhere in town on her way home.</div>"

Whether it was because they didn't meet her lofty standards or it was because she wasn't into it (or a little of both), it was all the same. <br/><br/>With a sigh, she put down the pencil and gazed out the window in the comfort of her bean bag chair. <span class=""bb-i"">There's no need...

It seemed very annoying to be honest.<br/><br/>Ryan packed away his notes and began heading over to the Manga Clubroom to do some studying. He wasn't going to get any peace and quiet in here for sure. He vaguely considered going home, but looking out the entrance of the school revealed a few shady looking characters that he didn't really want to deal with.<br/><br/>Ryan entered the clubroom and nodded at Akane in acknowledgement of her existence. He then sat down in an empty chair and got out his notes so he could study in preparation of the upcoming exams. A few minutes passed in silence when he suddenly heard a pencil snapping in half, coming from Akane's direction. Ryan turned his head towards her and vaguely wondered if he should say something.

From the moment he stepped onto school grounds, he'd been bombarded with questions and inferences and suppositions about what had happened to him. His antics at the cosplay cafe had also been blown grossly out of proportion, to truly bizarre extents, in some cases- he didn't even think it was physically possible for anyone to punch someone's head clean off their shoulders, much less him. He rolled his eyes. His classmates in the Boxing Club would be laughing at that one for a while if they'd heard it. Still, thankfully, the questions died down as his classmates realized that his answers weren't going to get any more interesting or well-defined than, ""I don't really remember"" or similar iterations of the phrase, and things went on as normal.<br/><br/>Mako was pleased to note that Masahide has also similarly recovered from their shared ordeal, which meant that Shizuka was likely also at school. At some point, they'd all have to get together and discuss things in full. Sato and Rui had given him the basics, but there was still much to be said- about that other world, about the Shadows, and about his new powers. His Persona. He felt again at the new presence in his head, and considered the situation he now found himself in, particularly regarding the threats that he'd volunteered to help deal with. He was going to need a weapon, if he expected to be effective in any capacity. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Hmm.</span></font><br/><br/>It was lunchtime when Mako got a text on his phone, which surprised him slightly- he didn't get many texts, he preferred face-to-face discussion. Which meant it was probably someone he didn't know very well, and that narrowed it down to his fellow investigators. Feeling slightly anxious, he pulled out his phone, and raised an eyebrow at the name of the one who'd texted him.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Sato. Of course it's Sato.

Still, with an inward shrug, he made his way toward the range, eyes scanning the students arriving for club practice, and waving off the curious glances of those who wondered why he was there.

Well, not literally, seeing as the whole place just kind of smelled like a mixture of sweat, leather, and resin. But it felt good to fire a bow outside of the mirror world for once, being able to just practice and hone his technique without worrying about fucking up and potentially getting hit with something a little more painful than a misfired string. Speaking of Sato's bow technique, he started to notice his improvements. It wasn't zero-to-hero or anything, but his shots were noticeably more consistent and accurate. It was kind of an ego boost to have a few other people around to see it, to be honest.<br/><br/>	It was just as Sato completely messed up a shot, accidentally nailing the section of backboard just above the target, that Rokurou called him over, having just arrived, but not without a goofy smirk. He'd definitely had walked in on <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> that last shot, missing the rest of his relatively impressive score. Sato started to internally diss Rokurou's own shooting skills, but he quickly realized that they hadn't gone against each other for what felt like forever.<br/><br/>	Rokurou set down the bag he carried, likely full of his own equipment. Seeing the tip of the bow arm poke out reminded Sato of how painfully awkward it was carrying his own stuff around to use for the mirror world, as it felt vaguely... illegal. It probably wasn't, but he didn't know for sure, and that was what bugged him. Especially considering he used Rokurou's modified arrows. Regardless, it was kind of a smart thing to do since equipment left in the locker was considered free to use by anyone, meaning most of it tends to get a little damaged by the <span class=""bb-i"">less experienced</span> members.<br/><br/>	""You're here early,"" Rokurou said, walking over to a small cabinet where they kept most of the essential papers. A bit questionable, but apparently he kept copies of anything actually essential so Sato tried not to worry about any form of petty sabotage. The club president pulled out a folded up wad of papers from his back pocket and messed around with the contents of a binder, doing who knows what with the crumpled sheets. ""It's more surprising you're here at all,"" He added on. Sato felt the second part wasn't necessary, but whatever.<br/><br/>	""Yeah, well. I was busy, okay?"" Sato replied, setting his bow against the side of a nearby equipment locker.<br/><br/>	""Sure you were."" Rokurou blew some air out of his nose, purposely obnoxiously loud. Just in case Sato didn't hear it normally. ""I would ask, but that's not my business what you're fucking around with, so at least you're here now.""<br/><br/>	Sato slumped his shoulders a bit and rolled his eyes to side.  ""I mean, I was just... tired. I wanted to come, don't get me wrong, it's just that--""<br/><br/>	""Dude. I said I don't care."" He shut the binder for dramatic effect, shoving it haphazardly back into the pile inside the cabinet drawer. With whatever that was done, Rokurou threw his uniform jacket aside and pulled out his bow. He started to string it using the old-fashioned way, so Sato took a small step away. ""I'm a bit more cheesed that you haven't talked to me at all in like three weeks. I even shot you a few texts, man! What's up with that?""<br/><br/>	Sato had less explanation for that, unfortunately. He hadn't really talked to anyone since he had gotten kidnapped besides Mako and that one time he helped Rokurou study. It only then occurred to Sato that people might be a little... concerned, for him.<br/><br/>	Luckily, before Sato ran out of time to think of a good answer, Rokurou changed the subject. ""Hey, is that guy waving at us?"" He pointed behind Sato and over to the door, and sure enough, Sato turned around to see Mako coming towards them. It was then that he suddenly remembered he had sent a text to Mako about meeting up there, so he played his surprise off real cool like, leaning onto the locker after his sudden pivot. Unfortunately, he forgot he left his bow there and promptly knocked it off, clamoring against the floor uncomfortably loudly.<br/><br/>	Anyways. Sato gave a knowingly awkward smile, ignoring Rokurou's giggling behind him. ""I see you got my text."" He said, picking his bow up from the floor.<br/><br/>	""Oh, you can text this guy but not me?"" Rokurou butted in, bumping Sato in the shoulder. A few seconds of silence and disapproving looks proved effective in repelling Rokurou, however. ""Oh, I see how it is! Well, whatever. I wanted to get some practice in anyway. You better talk to me later, asshole."" And with that, Rokurou took a handful of arrows from his archery bag and moved over to the firing line, squaring himself off with the target as he walked up to it.<br/><br/>	Sato rubbed the back of his hair. ""Um, anyways... I'm glad to see that you're back at school. If you want to talk about the whole, um, 'thing', then I'm pretty much free. To talk.""</div>"

No big deal.</span></font> Sato attempted to look natural- at least, that was what he assumed he was trying to do- and only marginally succeeded, knocking over his bow, loudly. Spiky-haired douche laughed. Mako's glare intensified slightly.<br/><br/>""I see you got my text,"" said Sato, picking up the bow he'd knocked over. Spiky Hair took exception to this almost immediately.<br/><br/>""Oh, you can text this guy but not me?"" he butted in, bumping Sato in the shoulder, quite deliberately. Mako's glare upgraded from ""you are an annoyance to me"" to ""I will disembowel you if you touch him again."" A few seconds of this, and the larger student scoffed, acting tough.<br/><br/>""Oh, I see how it is! Well, whatever. I wanted to get some practice in anyway. You better talk to me later, asshole.""

I'm glad to see that you're back at school. If you want to talk about the whole, um, 'thing', then I'm pretty much free. To talk."" Sato rubbed the back of his head as he said this, looking painfully awkward with the situation as it had transpired. Mako glanced sidelong at Spiky Hair, breathing a deep sigh, then looking back at Sato with a raised eyebrow.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Are you sure?

For whatever reason, Mako seemed to really dislike Rokurou, based on all the glaring and the villainizing statements. It struck him a bit odd, but then again, Rokurou had a knack for hitting things off wrong. A lot of people act the same as Mako upon first meeting, but then the other group of people tolerate him for his endearing side. It wasn't hard to guess which team Sato was on. ""Rokurou's..."" Sato hesitated to compliment him. ""You'd need to get to know him first. I mean, general you, not actually you. You, Mako, seem to, uh...""<br/><br/>	""Moving on."" Sato changed the subject, putting his bow into an equipment locker. He'd left some equipment out, but someone was bound to use it anyway. Starting off towards the door, Sato continued. ""It doesn't matter if I stay or not, it's just a hobby for me. Well, not technically anymore, but you get what I mean.""<br/><br/>	""Uh... But yeah, I'd be down for getting something downtown. I'd love to be talk to someone about everything that's been happening. I mean, outside of the warehouse with people I barely know."" He frowned. It occurred to him that he barely knew Mako either, but their relationship had started off talking about it so it wasn't too weird to discuss it again. Especially now that Mako was part of the investigation team as well, and that the case is really picking up. Police involvement was on the rise, and the cult was getting more and more bold with their activities. In a way, it'd probably be a much better use of time than mindlessly shooting at some fake targets.<br/><br/>	As Sato walked out the door to the range, the sun slowly creeping down towards the horizon, he considered where they could go. ""There's a good noodle place just by the shopping district. It's pretty quiet there, so it'd be pretty good for talking. What do you think?""</div>"

He looked over at the taller boy, considered Sato's defense, and conceded that this was the first time he'd met them. Sato probably would know better than him, if they'd known each other for a while. Still, this wasn't something he could just ignore- if they had known each other for long enough, then Rokurou was being very uncharitable toward Sato for pretty flimsy reasons. Regardless, Mako decided to let it slide, just so long as Rokurou didn't make a habit of this kind of treatment. If he did, well, they'd cross that bridge when they came to it. He turned back to Sato.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""No, it's all right. I probably do need to take it easier on him. It's the first time I've met him, after all.""</font> His expression was still slightly darkened from earlier. <font color=""#0076a3"">""As long as he's not generally in the habit of treating you so poorly, I'll let it slide. I don't like people being rude to my friends.""</font><br/><br/>He started almost imperceptibly at that- could he really consider he and Sato friends, when they'd only spent time together about half a dozen times? A few of those while not under the best of circumstances, at that. Sato didn't seem to mind him saying, so he shrugged inwardly. If Sato was fine with being his friend, then Mako didn't feel the need to correct himself. The two of them walked out of the archery range, and Sato paused for a moment, considering something. He turned to Mako.<br/><br/>""There's a good noodle place just by the shopping district. It's pretty quiet there, so it'd be pretty good for talking. What do you think?""<br/><br/>Mako nodded- that sounded like just the place to do this sort of thing. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Sounds great! I could use some noodles, anyway. You can probably remember how bad that hospital food was...""</font></div>"

On one hand, Sato wouldn't refer to what they were as 'friends' just yet considering how short a time they had known each other. For some reason, though, he didn't quite feel like he wanted to be 'friends.' Not that he didn't want to know Mako, but...<br/><br/>	Anyways, soon enough the two highschoolers were seated at a table in a corner, the quiet shop empty besides the owners and a few other students that decided to do the same as Sato and Mako had. It was quaint enough, and luckily the other customers had the courtesy to space eachother out pretty well. After ordering-- Sato just getting soba-- it struck Sato how they were essentially repeating their last outing together. Discussing the cult activity over some food. It was, of course, different this time, now that they both had personas. The issue, of course, was getting Mako on the same page. <br/><br/>	Sato tried his best to recap what they had tried to tell Mako back in the hospital, but it was a bit of a struggle. The fact of the matter was that it was hard to really understand unless you just went into the mirror world yourself, so Sato decided it best to focus more so on the real world part of the cult. While he knew they both had a pretty good knowledge of what was going on (the cult, obviously based in Warakuma, was kidnapping people and doing other such illegal activities, while recently they had been getting more aggressive with their actions), Sato realized that there were some finer bits of the story only the investigation team knew of.<br/><br/>	""So,"" Sato started, the sounds of sizzling meals and dinner conversation in the background, ""I'm not sure how much of this is common knowledge, but I'll fill you in on what we've learned about the cult, otherwise known as Junsei Sekai Tensei--  Perfect World Resurrection. I'll assume you know most of the 'normal' stuff for brevity, and just talk about the more obscure things.<br/><br/>	""When we were rescuing one of the other members, we happened to corner a few of the cultists at the end of a dungeon. According to what one of them said, we think that the cultists believe the mirror world to be a 'new world' of some sort. While we confronted them, one of the men panicked and a shadow came out of him. It was suppressed rather easily thankfully, and it also didn't seem intentional. What that means, I don't know, but if the mirror world is their goal for the real world, then that's... concerning. Additionally, they made mention of some woman named 'Lady Asai'. We don't know much about her, but on the way they talked about her, it seems like she might be their leader. Any information regarding either their intentions or who the leader is would be essential to the case, but we haven't found much on either yet, outside of what I just told you.<br/><br/>	""On a side note, after we saved you and others, an actual detective approached the team in warehouse, meaning he followed us there. Luckily he didn't do anything about us, and instead offered that we could call the police station if we ever needed to. I'm not sure about him, but I just told you that so you wouldn't be surprised if it ever came up."" Sato let out a deep sigh. As far as he could remember, that summed up pretty much all of what they'd learned about the cult so far. It wasn't very conclusive, but they were good leads at least. ""Now you're pretty much caught up. I still have a few questions, though. One: while a 'persona' is obviously some kind of representation of one's psyche, what is a shadow? I'd guess they were similar to personas, but what would they be then? The 'shadow' of who were are? Second, what are they really trying to accomplish? If the mirror world is the kind of paradise heaven thing they're trying to achieve, why don't they go in there themselves? Are they just being manipulated by this 'Lady Asai'? But that begs the question of what <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> intentions are...""<br/><br/>	""But,"" Sato gave a slight smile as he leaned back into his chair. ""I've been talking too much. Your turn.""</div>"

It was a lot to take in, sure; this cult, Junsei Sekai Tensei, was already incredibly dangerous, but it was worse if they were being manipulated by whoever this Lady Asai was. If they didn't realize what exactly the group's true goals were, then they wouldn't be able to get relevant information out of any of them, should they get the opportunity to interrogate. It did give them an opportunity to weaken the cult's strength by proving that the information they were being provided with was faulty, but how to prove that without pushing them into the Mirror World themselves? That ran the risk of one of them turning into a Shadow, and depending on whether or not the process was lethal, he didn't want a death on his conscience. At least, not unless he came across someone who really deserved it.<br/><br/>In short, while they knew more than before, they really didn't have any way of implementing the knowledge they'd gained. Mako tapped his finger on the table as he fiddled with his meal with the other hand.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well... thanks for the heads up, though it doesn't seem like we're any closer to finding out why they're doing this, does it? Hm.""</font> He took a bite of his noodles as he thought, finished chewing, then spoke again.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, on the topic of the Shadows, assuming your experience was close to mine, both the Shadow and the Persona seem to be a part of us. After I accepted mine, it looked like it... turned into my Persona. Like, by accepting my faults, I earned the right to change things, fix things. I'd have to read up more on psychology, but I've heard the terms ""Persona"" and ""Shadow"" before. Maybe I could do some research, let you know what I find out. If I really am supposed to get involved in this, I may as well make myself useful while I'm here.""</font><br/><br/>He ate some more of his meal before going on. <font color=""#0076a3"">""At least that detective won't interfere with us. I mean, as long as we're not doing anything stupid or dangerous besides the obvious, I'd assume. Like, we can't just beat up one of the cult members in the streets, but we can go to this... Mirror World and do what we do. Speaking of, our Personas. We can only use them in the Mirror World, right? I tried calling mine out this morning, but it didn't work. So I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we're only superheroes on the other side. Speaking of, I noticed the people coming to save me had some weapons- I should probably arm up, shouldn't I...?""</font><br/><br/>He paused for a second, then looked at Sato, then sheepishly back down to his plate. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Er... sorry. I have a tendency to ramble when I'm thinking about stuff. I just thought it would be a good idea to get as much of this figured out as possible, before another victim gets taken... and I'm rambling again, sorry,""</font> he said, stuffing his mouth with another bite of noodles to shut himself up.<br/><br/></div>"

Sliding his bowl a little closer, Sato took a mouthful of the noodles as Mako started talking. The first thing Sato thought of was that he'd much rather have <font color=""slategray""><span class=""bb-s"">Mako's noodles</span></font> something as spicy as what Mako ordered. The fish dish he'd gotten was tragically bland, which was disappointing as the last thing he had at this place was pretty good. More importantly however, Mako confirmed that all that information, while clearly essential to the case, didn't really go anywhere yet.<br/><br/>	Something Sato didn't really think about was psychology, but as Mako brought up, it was possibly relevant. It might've been confirmation bias, but the term 'persona' did seem vaguely familiar. They might've read something about it some time in school, but as far as Sato could remember, it was just something he didn't know.<br/><br/>	""Now that you mention it, the dungeons and the shadows were eerily close. There's no way someone else would be able to find out about things like that, so it has to do with the victims themselves."" Sato reiterated, propping up his chin with one hand as he continued eating the soba. It was almost... a good thing that they hadn't seen each other's shadows. It was a bit less awkward that way, but in a way, that left a bit of an awkward hole in the conversations. ""I'll leave the research to you, as you seem to be a bit more knowledgeable on the subject. As the past proves, I'm not too great at this occult research stuff.""<br/><br/>	The third-year gave a small nod, a bit distracted by trying to get through his meal. It was a bit greasy too. Did they have a different cook this time? ""Seeing as personas are indeed only usable in the mirror world, I'm going to say nobody's going to be creating tornadoes around down-town any time soon. But yeah, it's best to have some kind of weapon of your own, for both this side and that one. A persona can't protect you from everything."" With all that said, Sato couldn't think of much more else they really needed to cover. There was still the matter of things like the weird velvet room, the key, the arcana, etcetera, but that was still beyond the comprehension of anyone on the team. Everything he could explain about the situation had been said.<br/><br/>	Sato set down his pair of chopsticks, though he didn't look up from his food. ""It was hardly rambling, at least in my opinion. Considering the danger of the mirror world, it's best you have as little confusion as possible. Though, nothing's gonna stop it from feeling like some weird nightmare at first. Or maybe that was just me... Either way. It'll feel bad at first, but we can't afford to slip up on a rescue, as it's only going to get harder from here on out. With the cult's activity on the rise, the team's only going to get more and more busy."" The teen's eyes didn't falter from staring at the deep-fried shrimp littering the bowl of noodles. ""Oh, and speaking of that, you'll get a call or text whenever the team needs to go into mirror world. You don't <span class=""bb-i"">have</span> to be there if you're doing something important, but every person we're down makes it a little more dangerous. Plus, not everyone is as dedicated as you or I might be anymore...""<br/><br/>	""Funny how I started rambling as soon as I said you weren't."" He gave a light laugh, amused by what he said. Even if the food wasn't particularly great, the outing was nice. Talking it all over with someone felt comforting, even if nothing was actually solved. It just made him feel a bit better knowing they were now equally confused. ""Anyways, I never asked; how's your food? Mine's... not as great as I wanted.""</div>"

He'd need to depend on his own physical prowess, for the most part, and using just his fists to attack seemed... unappealing. He'd have to consider something else, something more useful. Hmm. He looked back up at Sato.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, if you have any suggestions for a weapon, let me know. I'm usually more used to using my fists, but I don't think that would work very well, if... my Shadow is any indication,""</font> He shrugged. <font color=""#0076a3"">""I suppose that's one of the perks of you being an archer, huh? Makes picking a weapon a lot easier... aaaaaand, now I know I'm rambling.""</font> He smiled up at Sato, which shrank a little as he got into his spiel about the dangers of the Mirror World, but didn't completely go away. He lowered his eyes to his partially-eaten dish, still only half-smiling.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""I don't see what could be worse than what I've seen.

I'll be fine. Whatever comes, I'll deal with it.""</font> His eyebrow raised when Sato asked about his food, and he looked down again, looking between his dish and Sato's. Now that he was looking at it, Sato's did look rather less appetizing than his own. He thought for a moment, then pushed his plate over toward Sato. He smiled.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""It's pretty good. Maybe you should try some? Here, I'll take a taste of yours, just to be fair to both of us.""</font> He reached over and snatched up one of the deep-fried shrimp with his chopsticks before popping it in his mouth and chewing. He paused, then pushed his plate closer to Sato.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""...Take mine, your noodles <span class=""bb-i"">suck.</span>""</font><br/><br/>The two of them finished their meals- here meaning, Sato finished the rest of Mako's meal and they left his crappy dish cooling on the table- and walked outside, promising to talk more later. Mako and Sato stood awkwardly for a couple seconds as Mako considered how to end their meeting- he considered a handshake, but that didn't seem right for some reason. He stood there for a few more seconds, and just as Sato started to look concerned, he acted.<br/><br/>Moving forward, he quickly wrapped his arms around Sato's shoulders in a quick, but firm hug. He released Sato, quietly said goodbye, and walked off, blushing fiercely. He hoped he'd be able to go hunt some Shadows with the rest of the crew soon- he had some awkwardness that needed alleviating, and soon.<br/><br/></div>"

She was quickly emptying out his top prizes simply by being there for the past half an hour, scoring stuffed toys and cute figurines for a few of the lovely girls walking around. There was a small group of them surrounding her now, marveling at her skill and blushing when she offered them the right to choose a prize with the points she had scored. They hadn't been around when she threatened the guy to bring her bodyguards in to inspect his stall when it became apparent some of the targets were weighted down though.<br/><br/>She was used to the stares, even with the increased number of bodyguards. The kidnappings had her father worried, not to mention that in spite of his protests against her going out on the weekends to club and flirt with young women, she managed good grades anyway so he couldn't come up with anything better to occupy her time. A few weeks ago when he insisted she practise her kendo more diligently, one of his own lieutenants ended up in the hospital with a broken collarbone. So, he decided he would be just as much of an annoyance by putting so many guards on her that anyone would be uncomfortable approaching her while she was outside.<br/><br/>If only there was a way for them to do that here, in the amusement park. It was so crowded nobody could really tell she had the equivalent of a small army detachment watching her. As she handed off the prize to the last girl in the group, however, something felt amiss to her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">There's another group watching me... The kidnappers? No, this hostility is way too intense.</span> Jun scanned the crowd by shifting just her eyes, hoping to spot anyone eyeballing her. She saw no one. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, if they are looking for an opening to strike, let's give them one.</span><br/><br/>Slowly, Jun headed towards the less crowded areas of the amusement park - the horror attractions. She had no weapons to defend herself with, but she could always disarm someone and use theirs. The problem was that there were too many bystanders who would get hurt. She could do little more than be bait, and just wait for them to initiate the attack.<br/><br/>""Send a message to your father, little bitch!"" A cry came out from behind her. <span class=""bb-i"">Wakizashi. That crest. Seems familiar... Yakuza.

He failed on both counts. He glanced again at his phone, and realized it was stupid- he'd get here when he got here, and no amount of fussing over it would change that.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">...Goddammit,</span></font> he thought, irritated at himself, checking his phone's screen. The same two-step conversation was there, just as it had been since he'd gotten out of school.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Hey, Sato. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out at the arcade after school with me?</span></font> Sato had promptly sent his response in the affirmative, and so here he was, waiting nervously, constantly pondering whether or not to wordlessly say, ""Screw this,"" and take off running. And then mentally slapping himself for such a stupid idea. Unbidden, a thought came to his head, something his Shadow, of all things, had said to him.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#fff200"">You ran away and you threw yourself into whatever fake life you could come up with in an attempt to get away from me!</font></span><br/><br/>Mako winced internally. It was true, he had a tendency to overcompensate. He was definitely a lot more sedate now that that whole tragedy was over and done with, where his insecurities were concerned. But just because he knew his insecurities were there, didn't mean they were automatically fixed. Mako sighed, and focused on the here and now, rather than his jumbled-up past. Particularly, where his feelings lay in relation to his senpai.<br/><br/>There was something about Sato that made him feel at ease- what started out as a bizarre fascination for no reason was turning into... something else entirely, even if he wasn't exactly sure what. He certainly wouldn't mind finding out. And that, ultimately, was the crux of what he was doing here at the arcade, waiting for someone to show up for something that might ostensibly be called a date, if one squinted at it hard enough.<br/><br/>Sato Hashimoto and whatever strange feelings he was developing for the upperclassman was one of the only interests he'd developed that he could honestly call... well, honest, in a long time, even if he'd started out trying to force them down and ignore them. And in the interest of never falling victim to his folly of falsehood, such as before, he had to be willing to ignore his own embarrassment and awkwardness and see where these new emotions led.<br/><br/>Hopefully, Sato enjoyed his company enough that he would be willing to let him do so. Lord only knew how frustrating it would be to have these feelings and not be able to act. He turned again toward the street as he waited just inside the arcade's entrance, hoping to catch a glimpse of his senpai. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">...Perhaps I ought to stop being so goddamn early for everything.</span></font><br/></div>"

Sato had forgotten where the arcade actually was besides the general location, so it took a bit of wandering around to find it. Not that he particularly minded walking around longer than needed, as the weather was pretty nice out, but the fact that he was holding up Mako made it a problem. He didn't want to come off as a truant person, seeing as this was the first time they were meeting up without being face-to-face already.<br/><br/>	Or, perhaps, Sato did know where the arcade was deep down, and was merely ignorant to his own hesitation. It wasn't that he didn't want to see Mako-- quite the opposite in fact, but that was the very thing that made him nervous. He didn't want to mess up what they had going, and so Sato's first instinct was to leave everything alone as if he could just stand back and enjoy what little there was to the relationship. But, of course, the nature of relationships is one of constant deterioration. If it's not being actively taken care of, a relationship will just fall apart on its own. Kind of like a road that goes through the seasons, fractured by the cold and torn apart by the heat.<br/><br/>	Sato frowned. He was most definitely overthinking it, but that's nothing new. Inbetween school and worrying about the investigation, all Sato did was overthink it. Maybe it would be obvious to someone else, but Sato found it difficult to understand why he was so happy to see the text Mako had sent him. He wasn't usually so eager to respond when his other friends texted him. Was it that his other friends weren't actually his friends...? No, that probably wasn't it. Despite what his shadow had said, Sato made it a point to just be, well, friends with his friends. Friendship. The word friend started sounding weird in his head and that only made him more frustrated with himself. He just couldn't seem to keep his head on straight long enough to figure out the answer to his feelings towards Mako. Another thing he couldn't answer was why his lungs stopped when he saw Mako standing at the entrance to the arcade. <br/><br/>	Sato walked up to the underclassman, having to remind himself to try to breath again. Hopefully the school dynamic didn't carry over into their relationship. ""Hi, Mako."" Sato lead with, giving a weak wave as he approached, but that was all he prepared to say. He couldn't help but wonder how his face looked. Probably nervous and confused, just like how he felt. ""It's, um. Good to see you again.""<br/><br/>	Sato tried to convince himself that nobody wouldn't suspect a thing with that stellar performance. At least Mako didn't seem to be particularly confident himself, which was oddly comforting. Not comforting enough to carry the conversation though, so Sato paused to think of something else to add so he didn't start off with just a super generic greeting. He reflected back on what had been on his mind while walking to the arcade.<br/><br/>	""You're hot out."" He blurted out, before he could even consider his words. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit,</span> was all Sato could think. ""W-wait, I mean the weather, the weather's hot! Not that you aren't hot, I mean--"" <br/><br/>	""I'm going inside!"" Sato pushed past Mako and hurried through the door of the arcade, the dimness of it a pleasant change from the sun, except he still felt like he was burning up. Covering his face with his hand, Sato could feel his blush. Was this how he died? From embarrassment? In an attempt to try to move on from that fuck-up, Sato surveyed all the machines lining the arcade building. He'd been here before, but it still escaped him what most of these were. Probably wasn't the best idea to rush in without Mako, seeing as he had to wait for him anyway. </div>"

Once it got out of control from time to time, her friends Nozomi and Rinko were there to break up the crowd, giving the maiden back her own personal space. After the whole ordeal in her dungeon, the secretive girl slowly opened up, which obviously meant telling her two best friends about her 'frowned-upon-by-general-society' hobbies. To her surprise, or not so surprise, the two actually accepted the fact but with shocked expression on their faces. It was indeed unexpected for a girl like Shizuka to be into those sort of things but it didn't mean they would think different of her. Shizuka was still Shizuka, as Rinko would say.<br/><br/>As the week slowly ended, the questions thrown towards her slowly died down. With her not attending the agriculture club meetings, Shizuka busied herself with other activities she had not been doing recently such as swimming, tennis, and practicing on the violin. As previously mentioned, the young mistress may have indulged into different sorts of activities in different fields, but she was pretty average in terms of expertise for most, if not all of them. With how busy she was with these activities, she informed Kenji, the manager of the cosplay cafe who thankfully just came out of the kidnapping incident with injuries, that she hoped to lessen her shifts to just weekends. He understood, after giving another comment about enjoying her spring of youth to the fullest, as he usually did.<br/><br/>Seeing as she had no plans for the day, Shizuka was just about to head home when she realized that she had yet to drop a visit at the manga room and hopefully, if they were still accepting club members, would let her join in. It was probably not a club meeting day but if she were lucky, she might catch one of the members in the club room if they were as devoted to the club as... An image of Matt flashed across her mind as she immediately shook her head to get rid of the image. This was not the time to feel depressed, get a smile ready and make a good first impression on whoever was around, .... if there were any around.<br/><br/>Before sliding the door to the manga club room open, Shizuka politely intruded, <font color=""violet"">""E-Excuse me, is anyone here...?""</font></div>"

Packing up her things in a quickened pace, she bolted from the room. On her way to the manga club room, she stopped at one of the vending machines and as she was putting in her change and getting her drink started to think about the upcoming comiket. Due to the whole dungeon exploring they've been doing lately, the event totally slipped her mind. With each case, Akane made a number corresponding chapters so she has a good deal of content but considering this will be her first event solo (she worked with her upperclassmen last year) it would be best to compact it and put out a one-shot first. <br/><br/>For the one-shot, she'll be going in with the idea of producing 50-70 or so pages for this one. Quite lengthy for a typical one-shot, especially since she's not an established artist, but considering all the content she's dealing with, it'll take AT LEAST that much to make sense of it and she's not one to cut corners. Granted, given the amount of characters and shadows, it might quite the challenge to get all of them across in that amount of pages (at least as much she'd like) but if it wasn't challenging, it wouldn't be fun. Then again, she can just focus one 1-2, maybe even 3, shadows and if it gets a good reaction, continue as a series of one-shots. Who knows, if the one shot gets a great reaction, she can try prettying it up and turning it in to an editor.<br/><br/>Finishing her drink, she continues on her way. As she makes her way towards the clubroom, the girl they saved last week popped into her head. Even if she didn't really expect anything with that open invite, she couldn't help but wonder if she'd actually drop by. Unless she read her wrong and wasn't interested, it has been a few days since she returned to school after all. Though, if she wasn't, it'd be a rare case for Akane since her intuition is usually spot on. Arriving at the club building, she made her ways towards the room before stopping upon the sight of a seemingly unfamiliar girl standing in front of the clubroom. Taking a better look at the girl, it came to her and she smiled. <span class=""bb-i"">So she came after all.</span><br/><br/>Taking advantage of the fact Shizuka hadn't taken notice of her yet, Akane snuck up from behind her and, moments after opening the door, placed her hands on Shizuka's shoulders, leaned it and whispered into her ear. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""H-e-l-l-o...""</span></font>, intentionally dragging out the letters for effect.</div>"

Kotori, luckily, was not among them - though she still couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, no matter how often she checked her notes at the end of the classes, paid attention during them or studied at home. Although a small measure of that unease probably stemmed from not entirely academic sources.<br/><br/>An inaudible sigh escaped Kotori's lips whilst most of her classmates had already vacated the room - things had taken a turn for the awkward at the agriculture club after Shizuka had approached her briefly on her first day back at school after being discharged from the hospital to ask her to let Matthew know she wouldn't be showing up at the club meetings. The very fact that Shizuka was using her as an envoy rather than tell Matthew herself directly had left Kotori to wonder a little - though she didn't say anything at the time, seeing as Shizuka didn't seem all to comfortable with talking about it. This suspicion only grew when Matthew himself seemed a little out of it on the subsequent meetings sans Shizuka - and who seemed to take the news with little more than a nod of acknowledgement, leaving the rest of the meeting a rather awkward matter that Kotori tried to pass over by using the time to study.<br/><br/>It seemed that ever since Shizuka was kidnapped, something seemed to have happened between the two - but without anything to go on or wanting to intrude on private matters between them, Kotori was left with little more to do than worry from afar. Shaking her head in a vain attempt to clear it of the thoughts, she instead focused on more upbeat matters - such as the fact that it seemed that no one had been kidnapped this week, seeing as there had been no messages from Rui or Kaminari on the matter; leaving her carefully hopeful that just maybe the cult was stepping down with the kidnappings - and not going even further after the triple case of the previous week - even if she didn't quite find it entirely convincing herself.<br/><br/>So lost in thoughts, Kotori only now noticed that in the meamtime the classroom had emptied out completely; leaving her to quickly pack her things and head out as well.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma: Ferrero Mall | Saturday, July 4 2015 - After School</span><br/><br/>Kotori occasionally glanced up over her glasses to make sure she didn't accidentally walk into anyone as she peered down at the small shopping list in her hand. Her mother had asked her to pick up some things up from the supermarket in the mall on the way home - and with little else to do, Kotori was only too happy to oblige. Still, navigating the mall wasn't quite so easy, seeing as it was quite a popular meeting space on any given day but particularly a Saturday afternoon - though at least most of the visitors seemed to be drawn by the more fashionable locales such as the various clothing shops or cafés.<br/><br/>Unsurprisingly, she saw several fellow students, though most only recognised as such due to their uniform or a vague passing familiarity - though on one brief glance about she noticed a familiar face not far ahead in the form of Rui, who seemed to be headed for a café and didn't appear to have noticed her. For a moment, Kotori was conflicted over greeting him or leaving him to his business when she had none herself - at least until the awkward atmosphere surrounding the agriculture club and her fellow members came to mind. Though he was not an actual part of the club, Rui did seem to have a knack for knowing what was going on with people, even if in occasionally slightly eccentric ways - and as such, perhaps he might know more.<br/><br/>Hoping that such a thing wouldn't be considered delving into others' private matters, Kotori drew close enough that her greeting, quiet though her voice may be, might be heard over the amibent noise of dozens of other mall-goers: <font color=""green"">""Ah, good afternoon, Shinichi-san.""</font> Kotori gave a brief bow - before realising that her plan did have one small catch in that she didn't really know how to broker the subject, seeing as just flat out asking about whether he might know anything about Matthew and Shizuka seemed rather abrupt, leaving her to glance about as if that somehow might produce a helpful answer of sorts.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... I-I hope I'm not being a bother, but I was, uhm, wondering if you might be able to help me with something...?""</font> she finally asked, though doing so was quite evidently not her forté.</div>"

Thankfully, the upperclassman seemed just as nervous about this get-together as he did. Hopefully it was for much the same reasons as Mako himself was nervous. That would take much of the tribulation out of this... whatever it ended up being. He smiled warmly as Sato walked up and greeted him, trying for both of their benefits to seem as at ease as possible.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">God, he's cute,</span></font> he thought freely, which was a pleasant turn of events from trying to squash down such thoughts and emotions. <br/><br/>""Hi, Mako.""

Thanks for coming to hang out with me,""</font> said Mako, trying to force a bit more confidence into his speech. Shockingly, it was working, at least a little. He could do this. He could get through this.<br/><br/>There was a long, awkward silence as the two of them apparently wrestled with their inner turmoil (he couldn't speak for Sato, but judging by his expression, it wouldn't be unheard of), until Sato finally started to speak again.<br/><br/>""You're hot out,"" his senpai blurted out. Apparently without thinking. Mako felt his face turn a magnificent shade of crimson while his brain tried to unfuse from hearing what he'd just heard. Sato must have noticed this, and started blushing fiercely himself.<br/><br/>""W-wait, I mean the weather, the weather's hot! Not that you aren't hot, I mean--""<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">What is happening--</span></font><br/><br/>""I'm going inside!"" Sato practically shouted, pushing past Mako and into the arcade. Mako let him, his mind still trying to process what had just occurred. When he finally did come back to coherence, his blush deepened as he pondered the implications of what his senpai had said.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Uhh... huh. I guess...</span></font> Don't say it. Don't even think it-- <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Senpai noticed me...?</span></font> God <span class=""bb-i"">FUCKING</span> dammit. Still, as awkward as all of this was, at least it answered some lingering questions Mako had been pondering. It seemed that Sato was at least somewhat attracted to him, which made this whole thing a lot more manageable. Now all that was left was to not fuck anything up. High bar to clear, but Mako was nothing if not ambitious. Taking a deep breath, Mako did an about face into the arcade, eyes searching for Sato. Thankfully, he hadn't run too far in, pointedly examining some arcade cabinets. Mako walked over, his smile now seeming just slightly more confident.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, at least you ran in here, rather than away,""</font> Mako said, sidling up to his senpai's side, still unable to completely eliminate the nervous tremor in his voice. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Might put a damper on this... date,""</font> he forced out, <font color=""#0076a3"">""if you had.""</font><br/><br/>Another pause. Mako did what he did best and muscled on through it.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""It's okay if you're nervous. I am, too. I've never done this before- not with anyone, least of all... well. I must have had to convince myself not to run a dozen times before you showed up. But I didn't, so here we are, so... let's just try and have fun. Okay? We can worry about other stuff later.

Not because <span class=""bb-i"">he</span> was approaching, but because he was <span class=""bb-i"">approaching</span>. Despite the seemingly unfazed smile, Sato could still see the blush on Mako's face. It was a bit comforting to see that his <span class=""bb-s"">Freudian slip</span> mess-up was embarrassing to them both. Even Mako's voice was a little shaky. And his shaky voice made Sato's body shaky when Mako suggested that their little outing was a <span class=""bb-i"">date</span>.<br/><br/>	For some reason, his first instinct was to laugh. And then it was to hide his face with his hand. Sato tried to say something, but his vocal cords failed to produce a sound. The only voice of his that he heard was the one in his head, screaming at him to calm down. He decided to not do that, and instead took a clumsy step away from Mako, backing into a Street Fighter cabinet. The situation was fairly trivial-- anyone else would've probably just laughed it off real awkwardly, but Sato didn't do anything but hide his face like some schoolgirl. It felt like... he was digging in the dirt with a shovel and accidentally hit something, but it was a pipe that started to leak a suffocating black smoke from the hole he made in it. As abstract the metaphor was, Sato had to remind himself yet again that he could breath. The question of what these feelings were sprung into his head again, but Sato realized that he had already known the answer. He'd just chosen to ignore it on the hopes of remaining 'normal'. Looking up from behind his fingers, Sato glanced at Mako again, and like it was a cue Mako continued on to explain himself.<br/><br/>	Sato took a deep breath as he listened to what Mako said, standing back up straight once Mako suggested to 'worry about other stuff later'. That was probably for the best, leaving that for when they were in more private circumstances. He'd already acted like a drama queen in front of Mako, a fact that was almost as embarrassing  as what he was worrying about in the first place, so it'd be best to try to save face while he still could, but... It reminded him of what his shadow said. About trying to act like something he wasn't or whatever. He took a deep breath and reminded himself not to be upset over breaking some kind of (for lack of better word) persona.<br/><br/>	""Um, I..."" Sato managed, still unable to look Mako in the eyes now that he realized the true nature of his own feelings and their relationship. Instead, his eyes wandered over to what was essentially the rest of the arcade. He barely recognized any of the games that filled the room, seeing as he rarely indulged in playing videogames. There was, however, one game that he distinctly remembered playing.<br/><br/>	Sato grabbed Mako's wrist and lead him to the back of the arcade where a familiar bunch of games stood. At the top of the calm blue cabinets was the logo of 'Persona 4: Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold'. It was several months back that he'd went to the arcade, and played a few rounds of P4U. He got demolished, of course, but it was kinda interesting. It was actually the first time he had met Rui and a few of the others, funnily enough.<br/><br/>	He pointed to the title of the game and looked at Mako with a weird mixture of determination and nervousness. ""Have you ever played this one? If so, c-could you teach me how to play it?""</div>"

I've had Ayano confirm though, it seems there's... Almost a dozen people, but the dungeon has a very distinct theme.

This was a strange phenomenon...<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Well while we wait for everyone to arrive... Might I ask Rui...

Everyone was mostly just getting weapons and supplies ready before heading in, it was already made clear, more than 4 people would be sent in to advance, while everyone else was to deal with threats coming the way of the home party. Still, it didn't feel like this would go normally. There were a lot of people in there after all...</div>"

Her unexpected meeting with Rui on the matter had, unfortunately, not revealed a way in which to help the situation - she thought that may be partly her own fault for not being too clear on the matter as she hadn't wanted to reveal too much about the lives of others without their consent, though her attempts at subterfuge by cladding her words with things like 'hypothetically speaking', 'asking for a friend' or 'I read in a book that...' The last one at least was true.<br/><br/>Still, the best course of action, it seemed, was to simply wait and leave it to the two of them - and for Kotori to hope that things turned out well in the end. After all, it was something that only they could figure out. Still, seeing them being the way they were did little to brighten her mood, even as Megumi explained what they knew of the dungeon this time around - but despite all that, Kotori couldn't help but steal an occasional glance over at Rui, even before he was addressed. Or rather, the bird on his shoulder which was the cause for said addressing in the first place. She was not ornithologist, but the bird - Zeke, apparently - did seem vaguely familiar in some way, leaving her to wonder if it was perhaps the same bird that had aided them in the previous dungeon. Given how much of a help it had been back then, Kotori was only to glad if it remained on their side; not even realising the rather bizarre nature of the whole situation after everything that had already happened in regards to the Mirror World.<br/><br/>With their newest and perhaps oddest addition yet thusly inducted, preparations were at hand - and following that, splitting up into groups. As ever when a dungeon trip was in order, Kotori's worries began to surface - but after a few moments, she put them aside with a deep breath. With a somewhat shaky confidence, she stood ready to begin - all the while hoping that everyone would once again return safely, that no one got too badly hurt and that they'd be able to save whoever was caught in on the other side of the mirror.</div>"

Someone had managed to grab her in the chaos and pushed her into a mirror.

Nothing that indicated she had crashed against glass.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">This must be where they bring the kidnapping victims.</span> She realized, figuring the hooded people had to be the culprits. There was no other reason why they would intervene with an attempt on her life otherwise. They needed her alive.

No sooner had she bent down to try and get some water, did a hand spring out and grab her wrist, causing her to recoil back as a woman rose out of the water. No, not a woman. A... mermaid? She had a mask on but somehow Jun got the impression that she was pretty underneath the mask, despite the scales where skin should have covered her body and a fish tail where there should have been legs.<br/><br/>""Come join us, Jun."" The mermaid spoke, and other figures began rising out of the water. Feminine looking, strange creatures that seemed to carry an unearthly charm about them. The blonde girl reacted quickly and ran, not knowing what was going on. Were her captors here? What were these strange creatures? Was this all some delirium induced dream?<br/><br/>She didn't get very far before running into samurai. They shouted something and ran towards here, drawing their blades.

Did he read this situation wrong? Was Sato's slip of the tongue just that? <span class=""bb-i"">Did he really just call this outing a date without confirming whether or not it was?!</span> He choked down his fear, forcing himself to be calm- it wouldn't help in the slightest for them both to be freaking out. Thankfully, as things progressed, and he explained himself further, Sato seemed to calm down and start rationalizing things. At least, that's what Mako hoped was happening- he may have superpowers now, but that didn't make him a mind reader.<br/><br/>""Um, I..."" Sato still refused to look him in the eyes- hopefully that was still just nerves. He looked over the rest of the arcade, seeming lost in thought. Just when Mako was about to say something, however, Sato grabbed his wrist, dragging him over to the back of the arcade, toward a line of cool blue cabinets. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Wait a second... I recognize these.</span></font> His mind drifted back to a few months ago, when the arcade had held a tournament for this very game. Mako had done well- not good enough to win, mind- and he'd certainly enjoy being able to play again, even if it had been a while since he had. He turned to Sato and smiled, hopefully in a reassuring way.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Huh. Good choice. Sure, I can teach you. I will warn you, it's been a while since I've played it- I may be a little rusty. Hopefully that's okay with you?""</font> He slotted a couple coins into the machine, starting it up for the both of them. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Don't worry. I'll walk you through it, okay?""</font><br/><br/>The day progressed much smoother after they got started playing- Sato wasn't bad at the game, per se, just inexperienced, and he learned fast enough that he was hopefully still enjoying himself. Hours passed by in a blur as they played, and Mako felt much more at ease as time went on. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Huh. Maybe this was actually a good idea after all.</span></font><br/><br/>Eventually, the time came for the date or whatever it was to come to a close, and the two walked out of the arcade, still quiet, but comfortably so. Mako turned toward Sato, smiling warmly.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""I had a lot of fun with you today, Sato. Thanks for coming.""</font> He paused for a moment, pondering his next move- that is, how best to end this excursion. Granted, he knew what he <span class=""bb-i"">wanted</span> to do, but considering Sato had nearly had a panic attack just from being told this outing was a date, he decided to perhaps have a bit more tact. So he contented himself with reaching out and squeezing Sato's hand affectionately, saying goodbye, and going off on their separate ways. He walked toward home, unhurried for once, hoping they'd get to do something like this again.<br/><br/>==~==<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Mako Moritomi//Abandoned Warehouse</div><br/><div class=""bb-h3"">Sunday, July 5, 2015</div><br/><br/>==~==<br/><br/>Mako ground his teeth as he stood in the warehouse, amongst what he assumed were now his peers. There was Kotori from his class, one of the boys who'd saved him during his first trip to the Mirror World, Rui- who had a hawk on his shoulder, for some reason- Sato, of course, the people who'd been rescued along with him, and a bunch of other people Mako didn't know all that well. He wished they could have been meeting under better circumstances than this.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Well, that didn't take fucking long at all,</span></font> Mako thought grimly to himself, testing the edge of the hatchet he held with a thumbnail. It was more out of nervousness than anything else; he'd already been meticulously sharpening it the night before, in preparation for the next outing into the Mirror World. He just wasn't anticipating it to be so soon. Wrapped around his left hand and wrist was a length of heavy chain, a makeshift bracer for defense- and possibly also beating up on some Shadows. Truth be told, the hatchet was more of a backup plan- he didn't exactly know how to fight with it, so punching things was his go-to choice of offense. Still, it couldn't hurt to have something that hurt more than his fists or a chain. Always be prepared, after all.<br/><br/>He stood solemnly, listening to the briefing, so to speak, about what the plan was. There were a lot of people in there, this time around. And not all of them might be friendly, either. He turned toward Sato, trying to suppress his concern. If anything, his senpai should be worried about him- he was the new kid here, along with the other two. Everyone else was much more experienced than he was when it came to this whole Persona business. So, he stood, quietly, no matter how much he wanted to charge in and start hacking away at Shadows. If he wanted to live through this, then he'd have to listen- he was no good to anyone dead.<br/><br/></div>"

Hours seemed to fly by as Mako instructed Sato on how to do fighting game things-- he knew the basics, as he'd been taught before, but any of the combos were beyond him. It was, suffice to say, pretty one-sided. But, it was fun at least. Trying to figure out his character proved interesting, even if Mako was bludgeoning in his head while Sato tried to figure out how to do a double quarter-circle in the middle of battle.<br/><br/>	Once they got sick of burning coins, it struck Sato how familiar the game's subject matter was, but he brushed it off as Mako lead them out of the arcade. Walking out of the front door, the setting sun lighting the world in its soft yellow glow, Sato turned to face Mako as the latter boy expressed his gratitude for Sato showing up. Sato nodded weakly, still a bit hesitant about the whole... 'date', but it was undeniably a good time, so... Yeah. Mako awkwardly touched Sato's hand, an action he couldn't help but smile at. Not because of the sentiment, but because of how adorably awkward it was. Nonetheless, Sato gave a smile wave as he took a step away from his kouhai.

Standing next to Mako, the teen watched as some of the other team members discussed Rui's new hawk and the latest kidnapping victim. The latter wasn't exactly surprising-- it was almost like another Sunday to Sato at this point, but he felt dirty thinking of it like that, so he focused on the hawk. And it didn't make sense, since apparently it had a persona or something. Did that mean they had air support, a la an airplane? Sato felt the bow slung around his arm digging into his shoulder with its string, the quiver weighing on his opposite arm. Hopefully, uh, the hawk wouldn't get in the way of anything.<br/><br/>	Sato felt Mako's eyes on him, and he looked over at the younger boy hesitantly. He wasn't really sure what to do, but since Rui was busy doing whatever Rui does, the duty of keeping an eye out for the new kids felt like it fell to others. In a way, it made sense for the archer to keep an eye on the front-line guys. ""Hey, uh, I guess you should probably stick with me, since this is your first time going into the mirror world. I'll watch your back as you figure things out, and then I hope you'll do the same for me. Does that sound good...?"" Sato looked over back to Rui, avoiding eye-contact with the hawk that seemed to be staring right back. ""That is, if we're on the same team. I'm not sure how Rui wants to do things, but I trust his judgement on this stuff. Don't do anything reckless, Mako. I know you probably don't need to hear it, but this is life-or-death, and a mistake can get you hurt. Healing spells can't fix everything. Just... be careful, and don't get in the way of an arrow or anything.""</div>"

Akane wasn't sure how they were going to sort who to do what, but as long as she gets a lot of the action and isn't overly crowded, it'll work itself out.

Kotori would be following Rui, together with Akane and Sato, whilst Kaminari would be leading Ryan, Mako and Shizuka from the other side as Ayano had surmised that the dungeon itself was unusual in that it had two separate entrances and thus allowed for a simultaneous two-sided approach. Remembering her own unease when she'd first entered the mirror world, Kotori tried giving an encouraging smile in their direction - at least that was the intention; the result being more akin to an awkward half-smile.<br/><br/>Though she would have liked to be able to help both Mako and Shizuka, seeing as it was their first excursion into the mirror world, Kotori also trusted that Rui knew what he was doing when he made the groups and that Kaminari and Ryan in turn, together with their navigator and, if need be, Zeke, would make sure that not only those two but also whoever was kidnapped would return safely. Megumi and Ayano meanwhile had continued to scan the area to glean any information they could and chimed in with their discovery of a dozen strong signatures - strong shadows, though not quite as powerful as the ones which were the basis of a persona, would be dotted around the upcoming area it would seem; a prospect that Kotori wasn't exactly too thrilled to hear about.<br/><br/>Still, they had managed to get through things this far, so the least she could do was to hope they'd do the same here - and looking about her team as Rui gave the order to move out, neither Akane nor Sato seemed to - at least outwardly - show much of a lack of confidence; prompting her in turn to take a deep breath to calm herself and then follow them into the mirror world as they headed toward the inn after giving a brief bow to the other team and wishing them the best of luck and to stay safe.</div>"

Ryan and Kami were with them, so it wasn't like the new guys were being put to their own devices. While that team went one way, Sato found himself in a fairly familiar team as they marched into the front entrance of the inn. Was there ever a time where he went into the mirror world without Kotori in the same team...?<br/><br/>	As they walked through the doors of the shadow world inn, he wondered about what their navigator had told them. Apparently, almost twelve other people had gotten thrown into the dungeon as well. If previous battles were any indication, running into them would prove extremely tiring... But, it wasn't like they could just purposely avoid the other victims. They'd have to deal with what they find, and then perhaps the rest of the team could come in once their main objective is completed, seeing as how it'd be pushing it if the current two team members did <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span>. But... why didn't the dozen or so victims form individual dungeons? Was this mountain a collective, or was one of the victims just that much ""stronger"" than all the others? Regardless of the answer to his questions, Sato realized he wouldn't get anywhere asking them now, as the only way to find out was to get to the center of the mountain or where-ever they were headed.<br/><br/>	Sato let out a small sigh. Seeing Mako again had just broken his composure again. It's not that he hated Mako, but it irked him to be losing his cool around the others. Besides, it wouldn't serve anyone good to get side-tracked with 'real-life' things while trying to fight off shadows. So, he tried his best to put aside anything in his mind that wasn't important to the situation at hand (which was a lot), and gave a confident smile to the rest of his group.</div>"

But as any rational person in her situation would be, she was afraid and worried what lied beyond the safe area they were currently at. Were there going to be some kind of monsters? Insane murderers? Something she couldn't have ever imagined?<br/><br/>As her thoughts wandered off, Shizuka recalled the events that led her to where she was, starting from the previous day. As she paid a visit to the manga club room, it had started off with a series of screaming and jumping, specifically by the name of Shizuka and Ryan. After such an embarrassing scene, the club president briefly introduced what the club was about, since Shizuka's reason for her visit was evident. After a couple of exchange of formalities and club application paper in hand, Shizuka left the club room with a smile upon her face.<br/><br/>Since it was a weekend, Shizuka had the shift at the cosplay cafe, Star Drop Cafe, where Rui had been awaiting for her. As he was a customer, Shizuka having a conversation with him as a waitress was totally not considered as skipping work. As she had been dying to know ever since she was released from the hospital, Rui gave a detailed explanation on what was going on, what they have been doing so far and what he asked of her. There was a moment of thoughtful silence but Shizuka being Shizuka, seeing this as some kind of fateful encounter and events that led her to become a <span class=""bb-s"">magical girl</span> persona user, and that she was given her power for a reason, Shizuka accepted the offer.<br/><br/>Now here she was with the rest of the team.

Rui took point as, with Megumi's guidance, he led the group into the dungeon which had the looks of a traditional inn about it. However, there was no time to enjoy any relaxing atmosphere one might associate therewith as Megumi chimed in with a warning just as soon as the group spotted the first shadows themselves. Not wasting any time, Rui and Akane were quick to attack them - and dispatch them too, as they turned out to be of the weaker variety; leaving Sato and Kotori to take on those further afield as they moved on mostly uncontested by the seemingly eating shadows and their hosts.<br/><br/>However, this didn't continue on forever unfortunately - as the opposite end of the floor drew closer, some more incongruent opponents presented themselves in the form of armored knights. These could take a bit more of a beating than the weaker shadows before them - but couldn't stand up to the combined attack power of the whole group; serving more to slow rather than stop their progress. Kotori hoped that they weren't indicative of how things would proceed - a continuous increase in the shadows' power - when they came upon yet another kind of knight; this time clad in black armour and seemingly guarding both the hallway and an odd pot of sorts from which wispy strands of smoke seemed to emanate.<br/><br/>Megumi was just as quick to realise that this was no ordinary enemy and informed the group that they were facing one of the captured people's shadows - though by the sound of things, they weren't the progenitor of this whole dungeon. Still, even with her previous hopes dashed Kotori knew from more than enough experience that these kinds of shadows tended to be far tougher than the 'normal' ones - if there even was such a thing in this world. Plus there was that pot to be aware of until Megumi could fully scan it - thus leaving the group to fend off the knight to the best of their abilities. Rui meanwhile quickly formed the plan of attack - together with Akane he'd rush through whilst Sato and Kotori would make sure that they got through.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah, right,""</font> Kotori said, adding a quick nod as she once more called upon her persona, Kikuri-Hime. A comforting calm enveloped her as she felt the presence of the floral shrine maiden more acutely and prepared herself for the fight ahead. Though she hoped it wouldn't be necessary, she was ready to heal any incurred wounds at a moment's notice - and until then, she glanced about to see if any shadows were trying to sneak up on herself and Sato, who were staying further back, or trying to get behind Rui and Akane as they charged off and through the ranks of shadows.<br/><br/>With a single word, <font color=""green"">""Zionga,""</font> a bolt of lightning came crashing down on one of the shadows which looked to be trying to move around Rui and Akane in order to attack them from behind. Seeing the two of them taking on the shadows up close, Kotori was somewhat glad that Kikuri-Hime's abilities lay where they did - the prospect of fighting these creatures from such a short range was a rather frightening one, even with the aid of a persona.</div>"

Ryan gulped and nodded shakily.<br/><br/>Ryan got out a combat knife and held it tightly, as if it would actually defend him against the monsters that lay within this mountain of darkness.

His first instinct was to draw his bow, but the shadows didn't seem to be... doing anything. The ""female"" ones were just kind of floating, and every other shadow drowned themselves in alcohol. Sato gripped an arrow tightly in between his fingers as they passed by the groups of alcoholic shadows. It wasn't the first time they've encountered beings of the mirror world that were passive in nature, but it was still far from a comfortable feeling. Images of the shadows suddenly turning on them in mass filled his head, but as they approached the other end of the floor, there were other things to worry about.<br/><br/>	As they walked towards the end of the hallway, more shadows started appearing, this time different from the others. They didn't seem to be indulging themselves or innocently floating, and as a black knight at the end of the hallway came into view, it became readily apparent that these new shadows were more than background characters. The navigator pointed it out as such, and informed the team that this black knight was apparently one of the dozen or so people that were trapped inside of the dungeon. That, of course, meant they were forced to engage. Rui and Akane took front, keeping Sato and Kotori at the back to properly use their ranged abilities.<br/><br/>	The first thing Sato worried about was the weird incense pot sitting behind the black knight, as it apparently was starting to leak something. Whatever it was, it couldn't spell anything good for them, so Sato made a mental note to keep an eye out for it. With Rui and Akane taking the charge with their superior combat abilities, all they could do is make sure they only have to deal with the main target. The weaklings, him and Kotori could take. Summoning his persona, Sato watched carefully as several of the small knights tried to approach. Kotori seemed to be covering any shadow that tried to sneak up on them, so Sato tried to take them out before they could try to get into an opening like that. <br/><br/>	Chronos appeared in front of Sato, before spinning its scythe around and sending a large blast of wind at one of the little knights. It was sent flying into another, taking them both out. Unfortunately, there was no shortage of other shadows trying to get in on the action, so Sato nocked a few arrows and tried to spread both his persona's attacks and his own shots across the entire group of shadows as a form of crowd control. Kotori would hopefully use precision lighting strikes to eliminate everything he missed, which would be plenty considering his attacks weren't always lethal.</div>"

Though, the initial enemies they faced in the early portion of the floor weren't even good enough to call it a proper warm up. It was just another case of 'going through the motions' but it's to be expected in the beginning of a dungeon, after all, lull the players into complacency and then hit them with a stronger wave when their guard is down. Well, that was how it usually goes, in games that is.<br/><br/>Thankfully, when they got closer towards the end of the floor, their enemy got upgraded and no longer facing cannon fodder. <span class=""bb-i"">Well... the kind that goes down in one hit, at least.</span> She smirked as her eyes fell on the black knight at the end of the hallway. Behind the knight was a giant incense pot that, according to Megumi, had one of the many people they detected from before, captured in it. Once Rui gave the attack order, she took the opposite side of him and matched his pace.<br/><br/>Like always, it was Rui and Akane being the lead attacked while Kotori and Sato were long distance support and just as they got closer to the knight, a shadow moved in from behind. Not bothering to slow down even a little, she ignored it and her faith was rewarded via a crack of lightning from Kotori. She was glad she wasn't given support this time. Akane has no problem with the support role....when behind a monitor or console at least but when she's actually in it, there's nothing like crushing your fist or weapon up close and personal.<br/><br/>Pressing onward as she charges in, she summons her persona.

Okay. As soon as he took a step toward it, from behind the pot came a small swarm of the little shadows, forcing him to ward them off, and then clear them with a Gale Slash. While that was happening, Akane's attack was being repaid in kind as the knight retaliated with a Fatal End. The blow was too slow to be a clean hit, after being backed down from the Kill Rush, but it was enough to tell Akane that the knight boasted some serious physical prowess.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""We're going to move our formation. Kotori, Sato, move to surround, fire at will""</font>, he ordered. The shadows they were clearing were thinning, and beginning to concentrate around the pot, especially after Rui took a step towards it, almost as if they were protecting it. Strangely enough the knight was uncaring of it, and almost just happened to be here. Still, it seemed to be capable of slaying one or two of them if they weren't careful.<br/><br/>Now came the next bit...

In doing so, Akane wasted no time to go on the offense and struck a persona-assisted blow, even as Megumi finished her scanning and let them know exactly what the incense pot was doing - by her words, it didn't seem to be affecting this fight, but rather the one that the other group had on their hands. With Akane's initial strike making a dent, Rui took the opportunity to go for the incense - but it seemed that their initiative and luck ran out as a bustle of shadows swarmed out from behind the pot and forced Rui to retaliate whilst the knight managed to take a swing at Akane.<br/><br/>Immediately, Kotori's worries crept back up as she flinched at the sight - but luckily, Rui managed to get enough distance between him and the shadows to avoid any rebuttal whilst Akane managed to avoid taking a direct hit. Still, seeing how even a glancing blow could do significant damage, Kotori was rather quick to mend what had been wrought. <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime, Diarama,""</font> she called, in turn enveloping Akane in a soft golden glow - though it only lasted for a moment, it seemed to seep into any wounds and restored her to full; letting Kotori breathe a little easier - she hoped that this way, even if the worst came to pass and either of the two at the front took a direct hit, they might be able to hold on for long enough for her to intervene.<br/><br/>However, just undoing damage was no way to win a battle - which was something Rui had already realised and thus called for a new approach; ordering both Sato and Kotori to go for a surrounding maneuver. <font color=""green"">""Right,""</font> Kotori quickly said, adding a nod, before complying - with their continued attack on the shadows, they'd managed to cut down on the number of shadows so that both the older archer and she didn't need to worry too much about being attacked by any stray shadows. Still, she didn't like the prospect of being surprised by any particularly sneaky mirror world dweller and thus still occasionally gave a wary glance about when she wasn't looking between the other three group members to make sure none of them might be getting snuck up on or taking any hits which would require her immediate aid.</div>"

As Akane's health was restored in the golden glow, she turned to Kotori and said her thanks.<br/><br/>From what they saw, the shadows concentrated their remaining numbers around the pot as if protecting it. They knight didn't seem to care, so she wondered if that one wasn't with the others. It wouldn't really surprise her if shadows, like humans, took different sides or went about things differently. Anyways, if they wanted to get at the pot, something needed to be done. <br/><br/>Regardless of whether or not the knight was with the others, I don't think he'd just let them simply waltz near the pot. She made her thoughts known to Rui, thinking that if they wanted to get near the pot, they'd have to deal with the knight first or at least distance him from it.

Apparently, the incense pot was leaking out into the cavern side of the dungeon and the smoke was inhibiting the other team's navigation. Meaning, it would be in their best interest to take it out so the other team could progress further (or, at least quicker). That was easier said than done, however, as the shadows were seeming to be concentrating around the pot. Sato doubted they could shatter it with all the shadows in the way, so they'd probably have to pierce through their numbers first.<br/><br/>	Luckily, the knight appeared to be apathetic to its existence, instead merely focusing on trying to attack the team. While it seemed powerful, its bulk slowed it down to the point where Sato felt comfortable with the idea of ignoring it until after they deal with the incense pot. Akane would probably keep it busy anyway, and Rui was already engaging the mob of shadows that came out to protect the urn.<br/><br/>	The decision was pretty much for the two long-ranged fighters, as Rui quickly ordered them to try to flank the pot and assault it whenever possible. Thanks to the work he and Kotori did on thinning out any stray groups of shadows, Sato wasn't very hesitant on running over to deal with the pot, but he made special attention to staying out of sight from the knight. That was something better left to the front-liners, of course.<br/><br/>	Kotori, however, seemed less keen on going into the fray like they were ordered to, and made sure to keep a close eye on everyone, including herself. If she was going to trying to be so careful, Sato decided to watch out for everyone himself. The concern of shadows creeping up on them as they flanked the pot was probably what was bothering her, so he made a note to be especially aware of himself as he started to sling spells at the shadows guarding the pot. It wasn't tearing through the group by any means, but before long a sizable dent was already being made in their numbers as the gusts of wind blew around and apart the shadows.</div>"

Mako swallowed, forcing his nerves down. He didn't know how durable he was in this world, what with the kinda-JoJo enlightenment superpowers thing he had going on, but a sword to the guts wasn't how he wanted to test those limits.

Not giving it the chance to react to what he'd done to it, Mako took brief aim and fired off an Agidyne. A gout of flame erupted from the ground under the knight's feet, enveloping it.

Then again, maybe 'distracting the knight' would be a better way to phrase it because if before was any indication this shadow may not exactly be allied with the other shadows.

Sato too followed through on Rui's order and started to strike at the shadows guarding the incense pot with Chronos' assistance, blasting them with crashing wind that tore them asunder or left them dazed enough to be easily finished off by others. Rui himself meanwhile made use of both these facts, pressing on past the distracted knight and into the fray of the gathering shadows as he reconfirmed his previous intentions - only this time asking for Sato and Kotori to focus on clearing a path for him.<br/><br/>With any immediate danger of anyone taking a particularly dangerous blow cleared, Kotori was a lot more willing to go along with the plan in an offensive manner. Without any wide-arced attacks, neither Sato nor she could stem the tide of shadows - but if they only had to focus on those which were an immediate threat or in the way of Rui as he charged forward to deliver a heavy blow directly to the incense pot, they just might be able to do so. As such, Kotori gave a quick nod at Rui's words as she shifted her focus from the group - though not quite without the occasional glance to make sure everyone was safe - before calling upon Kikuri-Hime once more.<br/><br/>A thunderous crack followed whenever she directed a <font color=""green"">""Zionga""</font> at one of the shadows that barred Rui's way or was about to swing around him and strike from behind. Together with Sato's spells, a rift was forming in the shadows - though Kotori worried what might happen if the rate at which they appeared increased as Rui drew closer. Still, it seemed like the lesser shadows were now almost entirely focused on him, leaving Sato and Kotori mostly free to aid in clearing a path and Akane to continue her exchange of blows with the knight as she dodged another of his attacks; only to land one of her own with Setanta's assistance.<br/><br/>With Akane avoiding any incoming strikes and the shadows being cleared for Rui, Kotori was left to tentatively hope that his and Askr's strike would be true, even as a shadow in his way, dazed by her own lightning strike, was blown apart by Sato's Garula.</div>"

This seemed to disrupt the enclosing shadows in some way as a great many of them fled away further into the dungeon and the few remaining were weak enough to not be any significant threat anymore. Megumi briefly informed them of how the situation had changed before everyone's attention focused on the knight which was still preoccupied by Akane darting in and out of its attack range and taking attacks of opportunity wherever she could - and luckily not having taken much in return.<br/><br/>Still, even if she managed to avoid all its strikes, it would take quite a while to take down such a foe all by herself - and after having felt the power behind its slashes before already, she didn't seem too keen on experiencing that again and instead used Setanta to empower everyone with Matarukaja before once more diving into the fray and getting the knight's attention. This left it open for attacks by Rui, Sato and Kotori - an opportunity that didn't go unused as a roaring wind blast struck the knight before thunder crashed as Kotori too added to the spell barrage with a <font color=""green"">""Zionga""</font>; a little surprised at just how much increased the attacks were due to Akane's help.</div>"

The knights didn't seem thematically part of the dungeon, which struck him as a little strange, perhaps testament to the fact that these people's egos were overpowered by whoever the dungeon's owner was. Regardless he moved along.<br/><br/>As they reached the second floor they entered what appeared to be a bath house, at least not before a small corridor full of rooms, they seemed to be like an Inn's accommodation rooms, and then there was the hot spring. The bath house led outside too from what they saw, but they were a bit cautious to keep going. The main area for this floor looked like the outdoor hot spring, many times more spacious than this little changing room they were in.<br/><br/>As they entered the outdoor area, they could see passive shadows taking a dip, much like in the first floor, but these ones were noticeably more... Aggressive. If anyone here had met Jun before, they would be reminded of her advances towards other women. It didn't help there was a slight pink tinge to some of the lighting, suggesting a bunch of things.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I honestly feel like I shouldn't be looking at any of these...""</font>, he commented.

They could see many parts of what seemed to be a building's foundation. One could imagine this could be a kind of secret escape route. The area they were in was just a long winding and somewhat narrow cave hallway... If they were attacked here, it could be trouble, so the idea for this was to keep their magic users in the middle, so that if something attacked, they would already be in formation.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Sooner we get out of this hallway the better...""</font>, he grumbled.</div>"

Caught in the crossfire, its chestplate began to crack - and then shattered completely, the rest of its armour quickly following as it too crumbled into shadowy dust that disintegrated before it even touched the ground. However, unlike most shadows, this one did not disappear fully - instead, in being destroyed the knight's armour revealed that a living person was actually hidden within.<br/><br/>Megumi was quick to establish that the person was merely unconscious - to the relief of Kotori, who was worried that their attacks may have unwittingly harmed them - and sent Kazuki to their location in order to bring them to safety. This too was quite welcome news to Kotori, seeing as it gave her a moment to catch her breath and, though unnecessary at that time, check on everyone else's condition while they waited for Kazuki to arrive. He did so only shortly after and, after just a brief few words, carried the recovered victim back to safety - which meant it was time to press on for the team, Rui announced and heading towards the stairs ahead.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Sapphire Inn: Floor 2 | Sunday, July 5 2015</span><br/><br/>Heading up from the previous floor, Kotori looked about carefully as no one knew quite what to expect; even with Megumi's watchful eye on them and their surroundings. For the moment, however, things were quiet as neither Megumi nor their own eyes detected any shadows in their immediate vicinity - leaving them to inspect the dungeon itself a little more closely. From the look of things, the theme from the previous floor seemed to be continuing - if the first floor was a dining area, then this one was a bathing one it appeared; the look and feel of a traditional Japanese inn undeniable - even if the strange disparity between being in the mirror realm and yet on seemingly mundane ground at the same time was a little unnerving.<br/><br/>Nonetheless, they carefully pressed on through a changing room and reached a rather large outdoor hotspring - which Kotori most definitely was not looking forward to. But whilst she wasn't exactly keen on public bathing, considering she didn't like having her scars on display, it wasn't like they'd be getting into the hot springs themselves - instead, the reason was far more prosaic in that steamy places simply did not mix well with glasses. Of course, that was before they actually arrived at the hot springs and saw the shadows mingling there - and by the looks of things, it seemed that they had ventured into the women's bath.<br/><br/>Similar to the dining ones a floor below, these shadows did not initially seem all to interested in the group and were instead more focused enjoying on the water - or, at a second glance, the presence of each other. Whilst she hadn't really known what to expect, it certainly hadn't been this for Kotori who tried - and failed - to somehow avert her eyes from the shadows whilst still keeping an eye on them in case they turned hostile; a slight blush undeniable even whilst wondering - and not for the first time - if it was alright to be seeing into other people's private matters, seeing as these places seemed to somehow reflect their thoughts and personalities.</div>"

He dismissed Israfil, rolling his shoulders as he tried to keep his body loose in preparation of anything else supernatural ambushing or seeking to harm them. He also strayed out toward the front of the group- since he seemed to be more suited to the front line, anyway, with his ability to weaken his foes before closing in for the kill. All in all, he was enjoying himself a little bit, surprisingly, even given the life and death nature of their endeavors. No one said this mission had to be 100% doom and gloom, anyway.<br/><br/>Smiling slightly, he walked up the recently discovered stairs to find himself... seemingly in the foundations of the inn. Mako frowned- there were plenty of places an ambush could be hiding in wait for them in this area.

A Tarukaja'd assault later, blasts of winds and cracks of lightening storming around the room, and the knight's chestplate cracked. It only took a second for the entire cage of armor to crumble into dust and release the prisoner inside. The person simply fell to the ground unconscious. The team was informed that Kazuki would come pick up the saved person, but Rui decided to protect the person until Kazuki got there. A couple of minutes later and Kazuki showed up with Riku in tow, and the two young men carried the rescuee back to the dungeon entrance with little said.<br/><br/>	With that having been dealt with, the group of four decided that it was good time to move on now. Climbing up the nearby stairs, Sato could feel the air get a bit more... humid. Stepping onto the floor of a bathhouse, he couldn't help but wonder how the knights they'd seen fit in with a traditional Japanese onsen. With multiple people in mirror world at the same time, it was almost definitely a result of the victims mixing dungeons. That didn't quite answer why one ""theme"" was so much more overwhelming than the others...<br/><br/>	There was no point in trying to figure it out while they were still exploring it, so Sato merely followed along with the group as they waked out into the outdoor portion of the bathhouse. It was almost freeing to step into a much more open space, even if they hadn't been walking through the corridors for very long. The heat and humidity of the hot spring had a heavying effect on Sato, but it had an artificial, fake feeling that unsettled him. It didn't help that there were a group of the ""passive"" shadows lounging about in the spring, doing more stuff. Sato subconsciously looked away instead of watching the weird shadow flirting, or even thinking about what the others thought about it. Was this still a metaphor for something, and if so, was it... okay to watch?<br/><br/>	The team seemed to grind to a halt, much to Sato's dismay. The boy was already trying not to look flustered. ""Well, I don't know about you three, but I have no intention of getting in. Are we going to attack them as Akane suggests, or try to move on with the mission?""</div>"

However, with no over signs of hostility and no warning from Megumi, Rui cautioned them to proceed without attacking. Kotori wasn't averse to avoiding conflict where possible, seeing as it would mean they'd not have to exhaust themselves unnecessarily and as such was quick to agree with a nod - all the while still trying to fix her gaze on something that wasn't the shadows in the water or the other party members. This did turn out to be a little more difficult as they continued on however, as she found her glasses to be ever less transparent due to the rising steam until she finally had to concede to it and had to wipe them on her uniform just to be able to see clearly once more.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, she picked a rather inopportune moment for it as the very second she removed her glasses, a screech resounded through the hot springs. Making a rather rushed job of cleaning them, Kotori had clear sight just in time to see the shadowy women in the water scatter in a panic - and the veritable horde of shadowy monkey now surrounding them; seemingly only waiting for a signal from a noticeably larger monkey which seemed to be their leader. Not knowing exactly what they were up against, Rui asked for Megumi to scan their opponents as everyone got combat ready - including Kotori, who once more summoned Kikuri-Hime to her side in preparation to cast her lightning spell if any of the shadows got too close.<br/><br/>She couldn't help but worry that someone might get knocked into the water though - which might not exactly be the best of things considering the relationship between water and electricity; even if she wasn't sure if such a thing still held true in this strange Mirror Realm.</div>"

It just doesn't help that, as the team neared the end of the open area, actually aggressive shadows jumped them. Shadow expected something like before-- knights, something humanoid-- but instead, screeching monkeys lounged out from seemingly nowhere. They were in reasonably large groups, with one noticeably unique monkey. Said monkey was probably the leader, as after it grunted a bit, the shadows jumped into the fray. Thankfully, the passive shadows ran off into the steam of the hot spring at the sight of the shadows, screaming as they disappeared into the fog of it. Sato was almost glad they were gone, but he wasn't sure if he was just feeling embarrassed about it or if the heat was getting to him in his every-day outfit. <br/><br/>	Pulling out his bow, the team had little defined strategy besides full assault. It was pretty implied, though, that it would be a good idea to do something about the ""leader"" monkey, but that entailed carving through the small army of soldier monkeys first, as they made it a bit of a hard target. Megumi needed a moment to properly scan it before they could get any intel, so Sato took matters into his own hands and started off by launching an arrow into the chest of one of the monkeys. It was a good shot, so the shadow dropped back instantly, disappearing into a small cloud of black smoke.<br/><br/>	Picking a crowd off one-by-one would be tedious at best and dangerous at worst, so Sato decided to try to get creative with it. Arrows weren't getting anywhere fast, but none of his attacks screamed area of effect... Well, wind was a force and force launched projectiles, so Sato summoned Chronos to his side. When the moment was right, his persona launched a torrent of wind out in front of Sato, tearing throw a monkey and tossing it crashing through another two. The collateral damage was fatal, but it knocked them away enough to prove better than anything else Sato had up his sleeve. As a bonus, it also cleared away the rising steam for a bit, but that was more of a quality of life pro if anything.<br/><br/>	Rui was probably the only one with a good sweeping attack, so he would most likely be dealing with the crowds. If they could pierce through the primate forces fast enough, an opening to the ringleader would have to show itself sooner or later. Realizing this, Sato tried to keep close to the front line, trying to multitask with his persona by sending a Garu one way and shooting an arrow the other. If the moment for a decisive blow appeared, Sato would be ready with his persona's scythe.</div>"

As the shadow monkeys attacked, the distinct lack of spells or other attacks that affected an area as opposed to a single target made itself clear as Rui was the only one who could sweep away multiple attackers whilst Sato, Akane and Kotori were left with taking out anything that got around his slashes and, in the occasional lull in the swarms, to make strikes of opportunity at the larger leader shadow.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, neither of these things seemed to be doing all too much - whilst they were able to at least hold off any monkey from actually reaching them, their numbers didn't seem to be decreasing noticeably whilst the shadows' leader seemed to just shrug off any spells being fired at it. If things didn't take a turn for the better, Kotori feared that they would succumb to sheer number sooner or later - but just as that fear began to creep up, Megumi's telepathic voice spoke up; confirming what they'd seen - the larger shadow was indeed nigh-on impervious. However, just a moment later she also revealed that this was not necessarily a permanent thing but rather that it was being powered by a shrine near the second group; similar to how the incense pot had been blocking the others' progress.<br/><br/>Rui came to much the same conclusion as he quickly ordered a completely defensive approach for the time being - rather than waste any effort on the larger shadow, they could just focus on keeping any would-be attackers off them. Between the long-ranged attacks from both Sato's bow, Chronos' wind spells as well as Kikuri-Hime's lightning strikes and the slashing and stabbing at closer range from Rui and Akane, they should be able to hold on for the moment - and even if anything got through, Akane's Matarukaja should prevent the worst of it whilst Kotori, even as she readied another Zionga to be fired at an approaching shadow monkey, keep a close eye on the others and herself in order to immediately cast a healing spell should anyone have need thereof.</div>"

Their attacks did actually connect, but whenever the attack hit, they could see a strange cloud over it. Megumi quickly chimed in with the fact that it had some kind of barrier that was undoing all the work they had been doing on the shadow. The barrier was apparently linked to something the other group was dealing with, so that left Rui's group with little else to do but stand their ground. It was essentially the opposite of the last battle.<br/><br/>	The group closed the distance between each other at Rui's command. If they couldn't take down the leader, all they could do was survive the onslaught of monkeys all around them. Sato couldn't help but feel a bit anxious, especially considering there was only one person in the group with particularly wide-aimed attacks. They'd have to be more precise than usual to keep the heat off, but with both the offensive and defensive buffs available to them, they could tear through the adds with little effort. It was just a war of attrition, to Sato. All he could do was make sure nothing got in on them.</div>"

Ayano clicked her tongue and furrowed her brows, they weren't making it any easy for them to advance. Shrugging off the annoyance, the brunette bolstered up and prepared for what was the party's next challenge. It was a knight. Clad in armor and looking fierce and ready to beat some skulls in with the way it carried itself. Before it could could actually cause damage though, Kami denied its attempt, and he called on her for some help.<br/><br/>A sly grin rose from the corners of Ayano's mouth. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""I'm on it!

A few presses and she slowed the video down and could see that he had cast Ziodyne to block the attack. The brunette touched the monitor showing the image and dragged it at the center screen, flicking her fingers so it could zoom in. Chuckling, the girl knew exactly what to do. The knight recovered from the shock of the blast and was preparing another attack, but just before he could land the blow with his weapon, the brunette quickly made use of her fast fingers and typed in a command, and as she pressed the ENTER key on her keyboard a powerful bolt of electricity had struck the knight, denying him again of landing a hit on the party.<br/><br/>Ayano brought up her microphone to her lips and said, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#007236"">""They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and I'm sure you guys will be flattered to know that I can copy the skill you used during the last turn.

As such, there was little more for the group to do than holding on until a chance to strike back appeared - not exactly a situation that Kotori was fond of finding herself in. Still, grouped up close together, Rui and Akane were able to hold off any shadow monkeys trying to get too close whilst Sato and she could thin out the incoming numbers with arrows and spells - and if any attack did manage to get through, Kotori was ready to cast a healing spell at a moment's notice.<br/><br/>Fortunately though, this turned out to be unnecessary - though with a seeming endless number of foes, the monkey were getting a little closer every time, the other team managed to disrupt whatever was powering the protective veil in time; a faint shimmer around the larger shadow monkey intensifying before fading into nothingness. Still, even with that gone they still had to deal with the large horde between them - unless they called for aid. And call they did - a call that was answered with a hawk's cry moments later as explosions ripped through the hot springs, sending up fountainous sprays of water and blasting dozens of shadow monkeys away, all the while leaving both the shadowy leader weakened and a path to it clear.<br/><br/>The group had fought through enough of these dungeons to know an opportunity when it presented itself, even before Rui ordered a full-on assault. As such, Kotori was quick to nod in acknowledgement as she called upon her persona's powers once more. <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> she said as she aimed for the large shadow monkey, <font color=""green"">""Zionga.""</font> Her words were immediately followed by a thunderous roar; the lightning crashing down and striking the shadow leader - and hopefully keeping it in place long enough for the others to deliver the final blow.</div>"

The other team must've done something good if that was the case, so Rui immediately called in a 'Zeke'. Sato tried to rack his brain for who the hell Zeke was, but that question was quickly answered as a screech resounded throughout the area before explosions lit up the onsen. The bombs luckily didn't hurt the persona-users, but the monkeys on the other hard were practically obliterated save for the boss monkey, who got out with some scratches.<br/><br/>	With that having cleared out the crowd blocking the way, the team immediately jumped into a rush-down assault. It was obvious enough to attack, even without the signal from Rui, so Sato summoned his persona and began hitting it with all the spells he could, blasts of wind and light knocking it around as the others hit it with blades and personas. After they pretty much wore it down, Kotori hit it with a powerful crack of lightening, knocking it down perfectly for a finishing blow. Sato was neither close enough nor powerful enough for anything stylish, so he waited cautiously for Rui or Akane to take it out.</div>"

Already weakened by the previous bombardement and Sato's spell-slinging, Akane and Rui rushed in for a final assault which that left the large shadow monkey roaring - before dissolving into black dust that was swept away into nothingness by an unfelt wind. However, there were still several smaller shadowy monkeys scattered throughout the hot springs - survivors or newly arrived reinforcements after Zeke's area-clearing attack - but they seemed more than a little hesitant after seeing their leader fall and beat a shrieking retreat - a fact that Kotori was only to happy about, seeing as it gave everyone a moment of respite after that fight.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Sapphire Inn: Royal Suite | Sunday, July 5 2015</span><br/><br/>As soon as Megumi confirmed that the area was now clear of any foes - and oddly silent due to this - Rui pressed onward, leading the group to the next area. Following the hot springs, they arrived at a courtyard of sorts that preceeded a rather large entrance which was immediately obvious the moment they set foor in the place, given the sheer amount of decorations and colours surrounding it. Whilst it seemed that the general theme of this place was staying consistent, it was getting ever odder the further they got - though Kotori was a little more preoccupied with worrying about any new threats which might be creeping around any shadows or hiding just out of sight.<br/><br/>Rui meanwhile seemed far less tense and instead joked about how this whole thing would be if it were a game of sorts - which might have eased some tension if it wasn't for the fact that as Kotori's eyes followed his extended finger from behind her glasses, a sudden sound echoed across the courtyard as a wall began to slide aside. The unexpectedness of it caused Kotori to almost jump in surprise as she turned to face this unknown threat - at least until she realised that said threat was simply the second group which found its path converging with that of hers. Breathing a sigh in relief as the two group leaders exchanged some words, Kotori was glad to see that all of them were still standing and didn't seem hurt in any serious manner.<br/><br/>However, relief was only short-lived as Megumi spoke up once again to inform of what was coming up - as Ayano confirmed, there were several knights ahead, or at least something similar to them, which meant that they would have a serious fight on their hands when just one such an enemy required a whole team to efficiently take down. Even with her worries returning at the prospect of what they had to face, Kotori was nonetheless grateful for a moment of rest before they would head out; taking the opportunity to catch her breath - both from the previous fight and the sudden fright that had been the hidden door.<br/><br/>As she did so, Kotori glanced over to the second group - though seeing as they had linked up, it was rather more a singular if larger group now - only to notice that by the looks of things Matthew had tagged along to take Shizuka's place; though any worries Kotori might have had were quickly quelled when it turned out that this wasn't due to any harm coming her way. Similarly, none of the others - Kaminari, who was discussing matters with Rui, Ryan, who still looked a little nervous, and Mako, for whom this was the first time willingly entering the Mirror Realm - were injured even on closer inspection, putting her somewhat at ease - both because she didn't need to cure any ills that had come their way and because it meant that they had not been met resistance that was too much to handle and instead made it through safely.<br/><br/>Still, given that everyone was gathering up before they made their way onwards as a full group of eight Kotori took a deep breath as she prepared herself for the upcoming fight that Megumi had already announced - though she did feel some confidence with their own increased numbers, it also increased her worries as that meant there were now twice as many people who might get hurt in the fight as well.</div>"

Luckily, the shadow failed to realize it was even taking damage, so it was a quick moment of going all-out before the shadow was ripped apart into a fine black dust that was swept away in the breeze created by their wind attacks. With their leader defeated, any remaining small shadows fled into the mist with a single look, the lack of purpose and chance of winning driving them away.<br/><br/>	With that done, Sato took a deep breath, breathing in the thick onsen air. He looked over to Chronos, who was standing over the spot where the leader monkey had been, and, like it was just a dream, the persona disappeared into nothingness as well. A vague sense of vertigo overtook Sato for a moment, a pounding in the back of his skull stopping him in his tracks as the team was starting to head forward. He'd felt it before; back in a few battles against peoples' shadows. It soon faded with a moment of rest, the mental fatigue dripping away like water from wet clothes, and he caught up with the rest of his team.<br/><br/>	The party moved on through the dungeon, and before long, Sato found himself walking out of the inn-like tunnels and into a courtyard area, a ""Royal Suite"" being garishly advertised by an entrance to somewhere. The bright lighting and haphazard decoration of a traditional architecture did little to ease Sato's tension, and even when Rui joked about being a save-point room, Sato couldn't help but feel like something would jump out at them as some kind of miniboss. Even as the other team emerged from behind a wall, he couldn't feel as though something was amiss.<br/><br/>	Regardless, though, Sato found himself ignoring his anxiety and shifting his focus from the shadows and onto the merging of the two teams, and more specifically onto Mako. After the entire squad had a brief chat regarding what they were doing, when everyone broke away to rest up a bit, Sato decided to inch over to Mako.<br/><br/>	""I don't exactly know how it was for you guys, but it looks like the two teams had to rely on eachother to get here. It's a good thing we had enough people, if that was the case."" He said, fingers clutching tight to his bow. This would mark the first time they had fought with this many people at once, but they had two navigators to help out, so maybe it would work out well. Sato wasn't really sure how to help out, though; besides buffing defense, Sato didn't really have much to help out beyond throwing garus at shadows' faces. Maybe that was all that was necessary from him, though... Was he a DPS class?<br/><br/>	""Looks like we'll be tackling this next shadow together, though. How are you holding up?"" Sato gave a smile, trying to show legitimate concern through the stress on his face.</div>"

While the situation had been manageable so far, especially given this was his first voluntary jaunt into this Mirror World, but he was still concerned for a number of reasons. He thought back to his own kidnapping, and the Shadow that had emerged once the team came to his rescue. Assuming things remained consistent between trips like this, there would be such a creature awaiting them here, too. And even with everyone here to help, he was rather unsure of his odds in that matchup.<br/><br/>He looked around the garishly-decorated courtyard, wincing slightly at the brightness of the scene. It looked like a casino had thrown up on a traditional inn- made his eyes hurt just to look at it.

They had all seen this place. <span class=""bb-i"">If that's the case, I'll be fine, right?</span><br/><br/>""Not a twin, no, though that is an appropriate term, in some regards. I am who you wish you could be... Free of responsibilities to the clan. Free to love who you wish, without interference from a close-minded father. Free to lose yourself in passion and desire and power. I am you, Jun. The part you don't wish to acknowledge. The lesbian love child of a yakuza boss who takes pride in being a disappointment to her parents... A cliche of a rebellious teenager."" The alternate her spoke, giving voice to the part of her that she denied existed.<br/><br/>""Fuck off. Like you could ever know-"" Well, not to play the part of rebellious teenager, but who would freely admit the darkest parts of themselves existed? This ghost of her might have her face, but she was <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> the same Jun who had lived.<br/><br/>""What it's like to feel shame for kissing a girl you're attracted to? To know that the gaze you feel upon your back is the wrath your father will bring upon her, just for touching and indulging you? I know, because you know. I know it's a rush for you to know you will anger your father by flaunting your sexuality and rebellion in his face, and damn whoever gets hurt along the way as long as you can keep rattling your chains. It's the only way you know to fight back... because you're too weak to escape.""<br/><br/>The words cut deep. <span class=""bb-i"">She has my memories.</span> Jun figured. It happened enough in movies for her to guess this strange place was where people's worst fears and secrets were brought out before them. Was this her trial then? Did she have to defeat this evil twin in order to escape? Anger boiled in her blood as she processed those words. How dare this poor imitation presume to take her burdens and pain, claim it as her own? How dare this copy claim to know what it's like living a life where one wasn't allowed to be who they are, with who they loved?<br/><br/>How dare this shell dare to say her life amounted to nothing more than a sham?<br/><br/>""No! That's not it at all! You're not me!"" Jun yelled as she picked up a katana that had been lying around, ready for a fight. She was met with mocking laughter as the form before her warped and shifted.</div>"

It was one of the dungeon's weapons, more importantly, she was putting herself in danger.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Wait! Get back!""</font>, it seems she didn't heed this warning. Her shadow warped into the form of a demonic shogun, it's features were obviously female, but mixed in with it were knightly and feminine features. That wasn't all of the shadow though, in one arm was a princess-like figure, and the other was a longsword.<br/><br/>As Jun charged at the shadow, she realized that her weapon phased right through the shadow, her punches and kicks merely bounced off of it. With manacing laughter the shadow raised it's blade to strike her down, and that would've been the end of her, had Rui not summoned his Persona to block the strike.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I told you to get back""</font>, he ordered.

Though they didn't know what awaited them at the end of the hallway, Megumi had already picked up a formidable presence ahead - and having delved into enough of these placed before, most everyone knew what that meant. As such, Kotori was on edge all the way through; glancing about for any signs of shadows suddenly pouring out of previously unseen crevices - but to no avail as the now merged group continued unaccosted on the long walk. The tension did at least save Kotori from focusing too much on the particular choice of decoration that accompanied the climb - and before the halfway point, she was instead worrying far more over the rather excessive length of the stairs.<br/><br/>As they drew closer to the doors at the top, muffled voices could be made out - which sounded similar but just slightly ajar of one another; a dissonance that undoubtedly rang a few alarm bells for all those present. Pushing onwards with varying degrees of fatigue at the stairs they'd just climbed, Rui pushed open the doors to finally reveal exactly what they were dealing with: Standing in the centre were two girls - or rather, the same girl twice, save for a scant few details being just slightly off. One of the two was talking down to the others in a tone which would have betrayed her nature even if it weren't for the unnatural colour of her eyes - it was a shadow; the secrets locked away inside oneself somehow made manifest through this strange mirror realm.<br/><br/>Even as she caught her breath, Kotori couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at hearing someone else's inner thoughts, worries and hidden feelings being laid bare - but before she or anyone else could interfere, the real girl instead yelled at her mirror self; decrying her shadow as not herself. Kotori winced as laughter erupted from the shadow's throat at those words - a mocking tone which began echoing all around and becoming more sinister as darkness surrounded the girl's shadow; coalescing into a far more monstrous form. Much in keeping with the place's traditional Japanese feeling, so too did the shadow take on such a shape as it emerged from its shroud of blackness as a armour-clad demon; an evil caricature of a shogun of days long past, albeit one which had somehow become intermixed with a medieval European knight's features and at the same time still retaining an air of femininity about itself - which was unsettling in its own way to see in a shadow, even as if was gripping both a sword and a figure clad in a pretty dress.<br/><br/>The girl, however, did not seem to grasp the gravity of the whole situation as she picked up a sword laying upon the ground and raised it in defiance - but without the protection of a persona, doing could only spell danger for herself. Kotori feared what might happen if the shadow turned upon the girl; reflexively reaching out with one hand even though they were too far away to do much of anything - remembering a moment later that she had something on her side that would be far more capable of stopping such a thing from coming to pass. However, even as she called upon her Persona, <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> the shadow raised its sword to strike at what it seemed to perceive as an insolent if insubstantial attack by the girl - which left Kotori to fear that she would not make it in time.<br/><br/>Luckily, however, Rui was ever vigilant and Askr's blade intercepted the Shadow's just in time to deflect the blow away from the girl. Several group members had rushed to her side in order to get her out of harm's way - no matter how much she could or wanted to fight, this was one foe she was helpless against. With the girl in safety for now, the group quickly got into position to take on the warrior-like Shadow - but just as Kotori began to hope that for once they might an advantage with the numbers on their side, the shadows off to the sides began to move as three more enemies stepped from them. Knights, similar to the ones they'd already struggled against before, strode forth in their armour; ready to join the fight - and making Kotori's confidence take a dive, seeing how even one had already been a struggle even without backup or an even stronger shadow behind them all.<br/><br/>However, before her worries could overtake her, Kotori took a deep breath as she felt Kikuri-Hime's presence calm her thoughts. Though the enemies were numerous and strong, they too had strong fighters on their side. Kaminari sprang into action, ordering his half to engage the knights whilst leaving Ayano to figure out the Shadow's weakness and Rui to occupy it for the moment. A brief acknowledgemenet followed before Rui in turn addressed his team - much like before, Akane and himself would take point and go about striking and defending whilst Sato would be lending fire support from afar. Unto Kotori fell the role of making sure that everyone stayed alive and fighting with her healing spells - including Kaminari's group.<br/><br/>Though she felt her heart sink at the responsibility, given the odds they were facing, Kotori still nodded - a quiet <font color=""green"">""right""</font> thereafter spoken more to herself than anyone in particular. However, these doubts only lingered for a moment before she quickly shook her head as if to rid herself of any stray thoughts - pushing her glasses back in place after doing so - before focusing at the task at hand. Even if she wasn't exactly the model of confidence, she knew that the others were counting on her at this moment - and wallowing in worries would only lead to them coming true.<br/><br/>Her confidence somewhat regained, Kotori took a quick note of who was engaging what and where everyone stood. They found themselves encircled by the three knights and the shadow, even as each knight in turn was engaged by one of Kaminari's group whilst Akane and Rui faced the Shadow itself; a loose formation being established which left Kotori with the other spell-casters on the inside together with the probably slightly confused girl. Before moving in to take on the Shadow, Rui told her to think upon the Shadow's words - after all, those were essentially her own and realising this would likely prove crucial further down the road.<br/><br/>For the moment, however, Kotori could pay little heed to the girl as she focused all her attention on the group - ready at a moment's notice to cast a group-wide healing spell should multiple people get struck or a more powerful singular heal if someone took a heavy hit instead, leaving the offensive magic entirely to the others.</div>"

Sato lacked any such trickery in his arsenal. Anyone else could do what he does; magic and hitting things is in no short supply in the Investigation team. Though, the weight of his bow reminded him of one thing: he had more range than the others did. Besides the obvious arrow thing, a lot the others often simultaneously fought with their personas, combing their attacks. Chronos was more of a knight of his command, in a way, while he could focus on his own safety and maneuvers... Maybe he was over-thinking it wrong, though.<br/><br/>	""You be safe yourself. Lack of experience is no excuse for carelessness."" Sato said, only able to look Mako in the eyes because Mako himself was looking to the floor. Taking a breath, Sato grabbed Mako's wrist, surprising himself with such a bold move. ""Nobody is going to die today, and especially not you..."" Sato immediately turned heel and walked briskly away, glad he could remain composure until a cool exit. That was a total senpai move.<br/><br/>	Sato walked back over to Rui, and in a quick moment everyone was ready to proceed into presumably the final area of the dungeon. The gaudy signs and lights suddenly faded behind them as they stepped onto the veranda, leaving a shadow of the team cast onto the stairs before them. A voice came from up them, though, so they had little other option to head up. As they climbed the stairs, Sato could only try not to notice the progressively worsening interior design. While the lighting was a bit duller, the decorations were only getting more obnoxious and lewd. He was trying to take the mission seriously and keep an eye out for traps or shadows, but the mysteriously changing images of girls naked (and related activities?) littered the walls. Not that Sato minded, but he didn't exactly not mind either...<br/><br/>	Thankfully, once they got to the top, everything appeared normal again, and Sato mentally prepped himself for another edgy session. While it was never quick as bad as his own due to the lack of context and relevance, baring witness to all the built up troubles and emotions of a stranger was certainly something. Though, as Sato set foot into the final room, it appeared as though the victim was already in mid-conversation with her shadow. The blonde hair felt weirdly familiar, but that was hardly important; whoever this girl was, she was already visibly agitated and there was no way this was gonna end with a peaceful resolution.<br/><br/>	Sato felt a weird nausea inside of himself as the shadow made a point of the shame of sexuality the girl had. He couldn't quite relate with the other father part in general, but he could sympathize with her regardless. Though, again, not that sympathy really mattered, because it was almost palpable when the girl finally snapped.<br/><br/>	She brandished a katana on the shadow, and with the typical ""You're not me!"" uttered, the shadow started laughing. The form of it started contorting and warping in an unreal fashion, the features turning to black as it morphed into a stronger form. That moment of stillness hit, and suddenly a longsword swung out from the amorphous darkness. From the shadows emerged a shogun figure, cradling a woman in its free arm. The contrast between the demonic features and the almost saintly femininity was irking, to say the least. The girl's attack on the shadow, of course, was a complete an utter failure as her weapon literally didn't even touch it despite a direct blow.<br/><br/>	The shadow swung its sword at her, but Rui quickly blocked it with Askr, signalling the start of the real fight. The entire team suddenly moved into combat position, the girl being dragged into safely at the same time. Sato almost felt cocky with their numbers against one shadow, but that feeling was quickly stopped when he noticed shadows emerging from the side walls, forming into a set of three knights. There was no gauging any of the shadows' strength, so Sato could only hope in his friends' abilities to cover anyone who needs it. Rui quickly belted out his orders to Sato and the others, their team being delegated to deal with the big bad itself. Akane and Rui of course took the front-line, while Kotori was to keep an eye on the entire squad. Sato, of course, was best suited for his task of slinging spells and maybe some magic arrows for good measure. <br/><br/>	Everyone formed a circle with the girl in the middle. There were attacks coming from every direction, and Sato couldn't but steal glances at Mako as Chronos was summoning blasts of winds when the time was right. Despite his previous confidence he exuded about the whole no-causalities thing, this entire dungeon wasn't normal, and this shadow probably wasn't anything usual either. The best he could do was stay out of harms way for his and Kotori's sake, keep an eye out for surprises, and dish out all the spells he could as one of the only dedicated black mages of sort.</div>"

He was going to make sure he was useful, no dragging everyone down.<br/><br/>Things were already in full swing as they entered, the girl was arguing with her Shadow like he had and like everyone else had.

Ayano sighed at the same old song and dance, and what appeared before them was an archaic monster that was a horrible reflection of Jun's inner feelings. Even carrying a princess in one of her hands. Kami had given Ayano orders to scan and she went to work, her fingers typing as fast as she could in the moment of the battle, her screens capturing various nooks and crannies of the shadow in an attempt to look for its weakness, it would take some time however and she relayed this back to the team.<br/><br/>It wasn't long before Kami told her to use her newfound ability of copy-pasting his attacks, she nodded back in response and assured him.

Rui tried to warn her but the idiot ignored it and charged in anyway. <br/><br/>While she might've done the same thing in her shoes, she would've at least had Rui give reason for the warning.

None of the shadows, neither the three knights or the primary shogun, were pushovers and were putting up quite a fight. Whilst Akane and Rui could at least hold their own against a single foe, covering for each other and using openings from Sato's spells, having to take on a knight alone was proving to be no meagre task for Kaminari's team. Luckily though, they managed to avoid taking any direct hits but it seemed that working in real hits of their own rather than just glancing blows would take some time.<br/><br/>However, considering that they still had to hold out for their support to get a hold on these shadows' weaknesses, it wasn't all bad. Using Ryan's Gale Slash as an opening, Kaminari brought down a heavy lightning bolt upon one of the knights - which didn't get more than a moment to recover before a duplicate strike followed, courtesy of Ayano. Kotori meanwhile kept her eyes closely following everyone all around her - but with no one having suffered critical damage, she opted to instead recover the little cuts and scrapes that could easily accumulate from close calls and last-second parries.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Media,""</font> she called and just a moment later, Kikuri-Hime obliged. A gentle golden glow momentarily enveloped the flowery shrine maiden that was Kotori's Persona - and then the same glow surrounded all of the fighters; lending them warmth and respite as their strength recovered. The by now familiar fatigue that accompanied any spell settled in her mind, albeit slightly stronger than usual - but though it was a bit more taxing to heal such a large group, Kotori had little time for such concerns and kept her thoughts focused on the present. For the moment though, it was still manageable - and she'd been in such situations a few times now; albeit this time around even more people were relying on her - a fact that brought both worries about their safety but also a redoubled effort to ensure it to the fore.</div>"

Still, best to save thoughts like that for later- for now, they had a fight to win, and some more people to save.<br/><br/>Of course, that positive sensation only lasted as long as it took for the fight to actually begin, where things started to go... less well than they could have. First was the near-crippling shiver of fear he'd experienced when the girl's Shadow had transformed into its monstrous state- he winced as he flashed back to his own horrifying ideal. His sympathies went out to her... right up until she put herself in danger by swinging a sword at her own Shadow, which was less than ineffective, it was actively hindering their progress. Not much use in coming all this way if she got herself killed, after all.<br/><br/>Luckily, Rui managed to save her, as Mako and the others pulled the girl back, forming a defensive ring around her, just as more of those Knights showed up to ruin their day. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Great.</span></font><br/><br/>Mako turned to the girl they were protecting. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Stay behind us, miss.

He quickly summoned Israfil to block the blow, the sound of it clanging against his Persona's trumpet reverberating around the open space. Mako concentrated, before Debilitating the Knight that had attacked him, following up with a punch from his armored knuckles. The blow struck true, causing a sizable dent in the Knight's armor. Mako grinned at the sight.<br/><br/>He turned back toward Sato, just as his senpai was turning back toward the fight, presumably finished doing what Mako was doing now. Mako smiled at seeing Sato still safe, then turned back again into the fray, eager to be done with this Shadow nonsense for the time being...</div>"

Furthermore, their support was still analysing their foe, which meant that they still had to be weary of any surprises it might have up its sleeve. Unfortunately, the Shadow decided to reveal one such surprise as the princess in its grasp suddenly shrieked oxymoronically; a sound which carried all throughout the room and shook everyone. Not only that, but Kotori could feel her strength being sapped by the noise; much the opposite of the feeling whenever another persona-user cast a fortifying spell on the group. Unfortunately, though Rui called for anyone who could to dispel the effects of the scream, Kotori could do little against such magic; limited only to healing direct damage or ailments rather than debilitating effects.<br/><br/>Still, at least with her current role as the group's healer she was little affected by the actual weakening and thus could still continue on as before. Though she couldn't help but feel a bit nervous at the sight of the knights drawing ever closer, her worries were quickly done away when the knights came under a barrage of hits from the other half the the large group. One in particular went down hard after a devastating blow by Kaminari that followed Mako's debilitating spell; Ryan following up with a wide slash to drive the knights back for the moment whilst Matthew's flames kept them further at bay.<br/><br/>With Rui, Akane and Sato focusing on the large Shadow, they had all managed to avoid taking any direct hits for the moment - which Kotori was rather thankful for, seeing as that not only meant that no one got too hurt but also that she could instead once more cast <font color=""green"">""Media""</font>; her word quickly followed by action as Kikuri-Hime once more recovered some of the strength of everyone fighting - and hopefully allowing them to continue the fight with exhausting techniques and avoiding any small scrapes from accumulating too much over time. Once more, the increased strain of the more widely-cast spell became noticeable for a moment - but Kotori bore with it as she made sure to keep her eyes on both the team, ensuring that she'd be able to intervene with a healing spell if anyone took a hit, and the enemies, hoping that she might avoid any sudden spells or other surprise threats being thrown her way - whilst hoping that someone else could deal with the weakening effects of the princess' scream, even though she felt a small measure of guilt at not being able to help with them.<br/><br/>Even so, things weren't looking too bad for the moment - they were keeping the shadows at bay whilst not taking much in return. If they could keep this up until they knew what the deal was with the larger Shadow, they might stand a chance of getting through this relatively unscathed despite the number of unpleasantly powerful foes. At least, Kotori started to hope so.</div>"

They were obviously doing damage with their attacks, but it felt like they were getting nowhere with the battle as a whole, and Sato bet the shadows had more endurance than they did. If they couldn't figure out the trick to this fight, they would get overwhelmed by them sooner or later. Rui set Megumi to try to analyze the knights while they tried to take on the princess, so Sato braced himself for oncoming action. All he could really do for the time being was sling spells as best he could.<br/><br/>	As the team went in for a powerful strike, the Shogun defended their attacks with relative ease. At the same time, the princess the shadow carried suddenly let out a harsh wail, resonating inside Sato's skull. The familiar dull pounding of over-exertion started beating down on him, his vision blurring for a second before he got used to the feeling. Looking around for a brief moment, Sato could see that it was affecting everyone-- the entire team wasn't exactly feeling it anymore. Rui ordered for buffs if possible, but Sato couldn't exactly do anything to mitigate feeling like shit.<br/><br/>	Apparently Akane had something though, and Rui asked for that to be put up so he could go in to test Megumi's theory. Sato didn't really want to waste any strength he had in him for the moment, so after quickly putting up a Marakukaja in attempt to protect the debilitated team, afterwards unsummoning his persona and only used it if need be. </div>"

They were getting nowhere and if this kept up, they'll be in big trouble. During their clash, Megumi seemed to have found a way to defeat this troublesome opponent.<br/><br/>However, due to the brief exchange, she wasn't able to confirm it. Which meant that they had to get it to use it's swords again. Well, that shouldn't be a problem. With them needing a way to negate the effects of the shadows screaming, Rui had ordered Akane, and whoever can, to offset the problem by buffing them. As Sato called forth his persona and casted Marakukaja for defense, Akane called forth her own and casted <span class=""bb-b"">Matarukaja</span> to increase their offensive power.

The girl snapped back to reality as the sound of thunder and lightning cackling and striking down another one of the knights resounded through her headphones. A beeping sound came through, notifying the girl that the scan of Jun's shadow had been complete, nodding her head, she tapped the 'ENTER' button for confirmation as her screens began to display detailed information of the creature they were facing. Rather than give a verbose and lengthy description of the shadow, Ayano figured it would be best to display the information all of the team.

The one that was focused managed to be put down as they rose again to repeat the process. It looks like it was going to be a routine battle for Kami's team for the time being. Kami however used Rakukaja to increase their defense, enabling them to be a bit more risky without needing to worry about being taken down too quickly,<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">""Alright, let's turn this bit around.

The party was fending off their attacks, as the princess raised a hand slightly, the ring glowing and summoning a rain of ice and shards upon the party as they braced themselves. The prince shadow swung it's blade in Akane's direction causing a bladed wave to fly at her.<br/><br/>Ayano's holographic image displayed the following information.<br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>No elemental or weapon weakness</li><li>Prince and Princess were separate in terms of HP.</li></ul><br/><br/>It was rather basic information, but what really stood out most was that both Megumi and Ayano's Personas picked up something unique.

Instead of just telling the team like Megumi often did, a holographic diagram of the boss suddenly appeared before everyone, displaying some important information on it: it had no glaring elemental weakness, and the prince and princess were separate entities. Beyond that, Sato didn't see much helpful on it. Was that really it?<br/><br/>	The answer was no, Sato was wrong. Megumi quickly pointed out that it had a loose grip when it swung its sword, and hitting its hand while it attacked was, well, suggested. Doing so would hopefully disarm it, and even if it was temporary, having such an advantage would really allow them to launch a powerful offensive. Of course, who would do it? Healers obviously couldn't in case disaster struck, and breaking up the front lines was just inviting trouble into the vulnerable inside of their formation. So who wasn't doing either of those?<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""slategray"">""Sato, you go.""</font></div><br/><br/>	Oh. Well, it was going to be a lot more helpful than just haphazardly throwing spells at it, so Sato unsummoned his persona and clutched his bow tied. He felt bad about completely ditching the formation, practically unable to assist anyone from a range, but they weren't gonna win with what they had going, and this was one of the only chances they had at the moment.<br/><br/>	Sato felt a bit nervous about going into the fray when everyone else was holding the fort so well, but he reminded himself of both the healers they had and the defensive buffs that had set up on the team. With that, he ducked out from between the spaces between his allies on the front-line, quietly sneaking out into the corner of the room. Nothing seemed to have noticed him due to being pre-occupied with all the fights going on, so he nocked an arrow and prepared to summon his Persona when the moment arose. He flashed a thumbs up to Rui, and then all he could do was wait for the rest of the team to bait the right attack.</div>"

Sato and Akane both raised everyone's defensive and offensive abilities; somewhat offsetting the previous setback. In further good news, Ayano had managed to complete a scan of the shadow - but that good news quickly turned sour when it turned out that this particular shadow had no apparent weakness to exploit; instead being equally resistant to all elemental spells and physical attacks. On the other hand though, Ryan managed to help out with healing duties - albeit leaving Kotori feeling a little bit guilty for not doing as much on that front as the knight-fighting half was evidently hoping - whilst Kaminari was leading the charge against the knights quite capably it appeared.<br/><br/>Even as further information - apparently the Shadow prince and princess were separate entities - poured in from the ongoing detailed scans, the large Shadow went on the offensive and swang its blade at Akane - only for an arcing wave to follow the wide strike that seemed to miss her by far. Keeping an eye on her classmate, Kotori was prepared to cast a more powerful, albeit single-target, healing spell in the form of Diarama should she get hit or else continue with keeping everyone at peak performance with a wide-spread Media heal.<br/><br/>However, this particular exchange of blows proved to be exactly what Megumi needed to pick up on a small detail that they'd noticed earlier - specificially, the fact that the Shadow's grip was weak on its sword and thus provided an opportunity for disarmament if they managed to strike a well-timed blow. Needing to devote her full attention to ensuring everyone's well-being through healing - which kept Kotori on her toes and nervously looking out to see if anyone get seriously hurt whenever an enemy shadow made a move - she was a poor choice to make the strike. Meanwhile, Rui was providing and receiving cover for and from Akane - the two giving each other openings and stopping would-be hits as much as they could - which left Sato to go for the disarming shot, receiving the order from Rui to that effect.<br/><br/>As he moved out of line of sight from the large Shadow, Kotori hoped that it didn't have some additional trick up its sleeve that would endanger the current plan - taking away the Shadow's sword, even for just a few moments, would after all seriously reduce its offensive abilities and open up the chance for a hopefully decisive blow. And that was something which would be very welcome at this point, Kotori thought as she felt the by now familiar mental fatigue of the constant spell casting starting to creep up on her once again.</div>"

From this angle even Sato could see that the shadow's grip on the sword was loosened.<br/><br/>Meanwhile the other group was holding out against the knights. Kami called Ayano to request an air-strike to give them some breathing room as the knights suddenly began a much more focused assault, but the airstrike, an array of crimson flames, covered the field in front of them, making each knight that came at them a simple task.<br/><br/>The battle was nearing a point where a conclusion was within sights, but there were still a few things left.</div>"

Kotori winced at the sight as not all blows could be entirely averted whilst keeping up the assault - but luckily, Sato was ready to back up the frontal assault with a decisive strike to disarm the Shadow. Kotori meanwhile was far more preoccupied with the immediate aftermath of the assault; calling Kikuri-Hime to her side before using her to cast a healing spell on Akane: <font color=""green"">""Diarama,""</font> she said, her persona following suit as the wounds and fatigue sustained from the Shadow's counter-attack quickly began to fade.<br/><br/>Still, this was little relief for the bespectacled girl as she quickly looked around to see if anyone else was sustaining any attacks whilst she was focused on healing just a single person - but just as she did, a series of explosions tore through the knights and scattered their menacing assault in unison; Zeke's cry ringing out as the briefly stunned knights were easy targets for the other half of the group.<br/><br/>For the moment, they had the upper hand it seemed - if they could press their advantage now, they might just be able to use the momentum to carry themselves to victory. At least, Kotori hoped that was the case as she was starting to feel the strain of a prolonged tense battle setting in once more. With a quick shake of her head she tried to clear herself of it - succeeding only partly - before focusing on the others who might be in need of her healing.</div>"

It deflected all of Akane's strikes with relative ease, but as it was swinging, it was clear to see that the shadow was sacrificing its grip in order to match the speed of the Kill Rush and then some. As the shadow went for a retaliation slash on Akane, Sato launched an arrow from his bow, and combined with a Garu from Chronos, the projectile lodged itself in the shadow's hand with great force. The power of the hit effectively disabled its hand just enough that the sword flew away from it due to the wind blast. The disarmament plan was a success, and the advantage was shifted to the investigation team.<br/><br/>	As Sato was running back to main group to avoid getting picked off by himself, the other rest of the battlefield lit up in crimson explosions as a hawk cry echoed throughout the room.

Her pride would have demanded that she fight her own battles, but she was persuaded not to step in. She realized how ill-prepared for the fight she was when the others began summoning fantastical beings to fight her 'shadow'.<br/><br/>She had watched in awe as they battled the monstrosity that claimed to be her. They refused to be daunted and when the knight finally collapsed, she found her own strength returning. Strange, she had not realized she had crumpled into a sitting position on the floor. She walked up to the knight, eyes downcast and afraid to look at anyone else. She did not like that her inner demons were being put on display for all to see. The blonde gangster knew what she had to do, however.<br/><br/>She just wish there wasn't an audience watching her make peace with her own dark self. The girl bowed her head. ""Thank you for giving voice to my fears. Now I realize how foolish I was."" Her fists were clenched. She felt vulnerable, but at the same time empowered by the moment of admitting her weakness and failures. Her swordplay training was returning to her - <span class=""bb-i"">knowing your own weakness is just as important as knowing your enemy's if you wish becoming a stronger fighter.</span><br/><br/>""You were right.

She lifted the sword she had scavenged and pointed it at the knight. ""I will not tolerate this weak, petty display any longer. I will face my problems head on and work for my own happiness.""<br/><br/>The shadow seemed to melt away with a knowing smile. Was that it? An anti-climatic end to an epic battle. ""So... what now?""

In front of them on the table was a carving depicting a particular number and card, for Jun, it was ""The Devil"", while for Katsuro, it was ""The Justice"".

With the knights stunned from the heavy bombardement, everyone was quick to realise that this was their opportunity - and thus all attention was focused on the main opponent. Momentarily unable to strike back, the attacks poured in from all sides - magical and physical, the Shadow came under heavy fire until it was reeling. It attempted to fight back even as its princess was slain, a certain distress audible even through its twisted voice - until a choice arrow fired by Sato finally breaking its desperate defense - and making the fatal opening which allowed him get a clean hit with Chronos' wind magic. He seized the opportunity to lay down a final follow-up together with his Persona to put the Shadow down for good.<br/><br/>Kotori, meanwhile, kept an eye out throughout it all - ever wary for any would-be surprises from either the Shadow or its knights - but also doing what she could to aid the assault with her Kikuri-Hime's help, lending her lightning strikes to the assault. It was only when the Shadow finally began to flicker and disperse that Kotori gave a sigh of relief - and the fatigue of the fight made itself known in full, even as the armour surrounding the knights began to dissolve in flakes and gave way to the unconscious prisoners therein. Kotori took a moment to catch her breath - even as she felt the almost familiar uncomfortable feeling as the shadow, now in its original form, began to speak.<br/><br/>As ever, it unashamedly spoke of the feelings that had been suppressed and locked away - a look at another person's inner thought which was no doubt embarassing for them, but also for Kotori who still didn't know how to balance wanting to help the conflicted kidnapees and also respecting their privacy in such moments. As such, there was little choice but to listen though - even as Jun stepped out from the protective circle that had been formed around her by the party and confronted her shadow. Kotori didn't recognise the girl - at best, she was vaguely familiar much in the vein of other schoolmates whom she might have seen but never talked to before.<br/><br/>Much like the times before, she couldn't help but feel some measure of worry about what might happen if Jun didn't accept this turn of events and denied her other side - but much to Kotori's relief, this did not come to pass. Instead, Jun acknowledged that, though she may not like it, she was acting in a manner that she herself no longer knew the real reason for - and instead chose to live her life according to her own choices and on her own merits. A small smile came across Kotori's face at those words - which in turn marked the transformation of the shadow; a bright light cast across the entire room as a new figure took its place: Mordred, Jun's persona.<br/><br/>The girl turned to face the group, evidently full of questions about what had just happened - but those would have to be answered at a later time as the tell-tale signs of fatigue made themselves known; forcing Jun to sit herself down lest she fall - which immediately preceded the loss of consciousness. Though she'd seen this pattern repeat several times now, Kotori still couldn't help but worry that everything was alright; even as everyone else started to get ready to leave the mirror world behind with Jun being carried and headed for the hospital. Having used the brief exchange as an opportunity to catch her breath, Kotori accompanied the others - at least until everyone went their separate ways from the warehouse that marked their entrance to the mirror realm.<br/><br/>It would be with no small amount of relief that Kotori arrived arrive at home - both knowing that another kidnapping victim was safe but also to be able to lay down to rest; even if it didn't last too long before she recalled that the finals were coming up soon and she still had some studying to do for the day.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma High School: Classroom 2-2 | Monday, July 6 2015 - Morning</span><br/><br/>This time around, it seemed that the usual rumour mill surrounding the kidnappings was quite a bit quieter - which didn't come as too much of a surprise, seeing as the events had occured over the weekend and thus couldn't cause quite as much of a commotion as some of the previous incidents when the victims didn't show up for class. Still, Kotori still heard her fair share of stories being murmured on her way to her classroom - and not few of them were quite clearly being told as second-hand accounts or worse, seeing as there would have to have been at least a dozen kidnappings all over town for all the things she heard to be true.<br/><br/>Stymying the usual spread too were the not upcoming finals which hung over the whole school - some seemed to have already given up hope, others were just putting things off until whilst Kotori couldn't help but feel the usual pre-exam worries, even before the immediate tests began. In fact, she felt even more thereof as she had to regretfully decline multiple requests from other students that she helped them study - between her own studying, helping out at home, occasional forays into the mirror world and club meetings, she wouldn't have much of a reliable schedule; not even taking into account the fact that just imagining herself somehow trying to teach others made her nervous at the prospect.<br/><br/>Taking her seat in the classroom toward the front, Kotori gave a small sigh - but this time because she had inadvertantly reminded herself of the Agriculture Club meeting that was to take place later today. Whilst the colourful sight of the many flowers was always welcome, the same could not be said for the strange mood that hung between her fellow members, Shizuka and Matthew. Both seeing them as they were and also not knowing whether or how to help would do ittle to raise her mood for the rest of the day - which she already wasn't looking forward to, as she'd have to be paying a visit to the hospital later.</div>"

Not only was she unable to continue with the venturing into the depths of the dungeon, she had to ask Matt, the upperclassman, to take her place in the dungeon party. While the student felt awfully guilty for having someone else be in danger in her place, Shizuka wondered if she could be of any use to the team in the future. <font color=""violet"">""I must have been given these powers for a reason... It's only right to assist people in need with them...!""</font><br/><br/>Lips parted to release a sigh.

In an attempt to recollect her thoughts of that fateful day, to why they were in such a state, Shizuka wondered if <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> were the one in wrong. Did she really do this for his sake? Was it some kind of repentance? Maybe she just didn't feel worthy of him anymore after her inner thoughts were revealed. But even then... wasn't Matt willing to accept her then?<br/><br/>Shaking her head off of those thoughts, the freshman proceeded to put on a pair of gardening gloves to pull out the weeds which had taken residence along the plot of land. It felt like it was just yesterday when the club members worked on this garden when it was freshly plowed for the club. Then there were times where the upperclassman would find the younger student here, just to help her take care of their plants. Smiling thoughtfully at the fondful memories, a teardrop ran along her cheek. <font color=""violet"">""Huh...?""</font><br/><br/>Before it went out of control, Shizuka wiped away the tears with the gloved hand, unknowingly smudging soil upon her cheek slightly. Shizuka admitted, with tears as proof of this, she dearly missed the carefree days she had with Matthew.</div>"

He grimaced to himself as he finished off his opponent in Persona 4: Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold, thinking that he should get some coffee and food soon, because that monologue sounded crazy, even to himself. He rotated his wrist, sighing to himself, before preparing for his next fight in the game, trying to ignore the impending situation that awaited him.<br/><br/>For what must have been the thousandth time since he got here and sent his text, he thought of Sato, trying and failing to ignore the flutter in his gut at the thought of the upperclassman. Although, wasn't that the point of this meeting? To stop ignoring it? He tried to concentrate on the game in front of him, but the dam had already burst, and there was no use trying to cram the feelings back in. He pulled away from the arcade cabinet as his virtual self of the hour was finished off, and jammed his hands into his pockets.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">I really hope this works,</span></font> he thought to himself. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">It's gonna suck if I did all of this pining for nothing.</span></font><br/><br/>The facts were these: Mako liked Sato. Not just as a friend, or a mentor, or senpai, but romantically. The times he spent with Sato... they made him happy. Happier than when he spent time with literally anyone else. And he really liked being happy. So, in the interest of not turning his life into a bad romantic manga or anime, here he was, having sent an invitation to Sato to come hang out, waiting to tell him how he felt, and hope to whatever entities dwelled in heaven that his senpai felt the same. He certainly seemed to- his speech to Mako during his first foray into the Mirror World at least implied that he cared significantly for him.

The pains of having standards being the one at fault here. With a sigh, she trudged onward to the clubroom but today she had no intention of drawing, but she didn't exactly have the kind of energy to be doing anything kendo related either.<br/><br/>Giving all the dungeons they've been through up 'till this point, she had quite a lot of material already. So the focus of today would be to organize what she has already and decide what gets included and what gets left out in the one-shot she plans to do for comiket. Ideally, she'd like to include two of the monsters in it. Maybe have one act as a sub-boss to stir things up and a final boss to conclude the issue. <br/><br/>Though, she'll also have to see if the story would fit an additional enemy. Adding too many of one thing and less of another tends to dilute the product. Especially in manga involving battle scenes, people tend to overload it with enemies and battles while ignoring story and character development where people don't know what the hell is going on. With a sigh, she placed her sketches back on the table in the clubroom and leaned back in her chair. <br/><br/>She needed a break, too many double dungeons and an all night drawing sessions does a number on ya.

And so they did. A flurry of magic, personas, and teens flying around with adrenaline overwhelmed the shadow within seconds. A perfected all-out attack! It was hard to see through the dirt flying around, but a part of the shadow evaporated into a cloud of darkness. <br/><br/>As everyone backed away, Sato watched with a indescribable vitriol as the shadow got back up to its feet, two hands on its sword. Before it could even say anything, Sato launched an arrow at it. It was easily deflected, of course, but what the shadow didn't realize was that Chronos was already behind it, swinging its scythe with the full force of a Garula behind it and knocking the shadow forward a good dozen meters. Not too far off from him now, Sato fired a few disabling arrows into its shoulder and its knee as it tried to hopelessly swing at anything. With it on the ground, there wasn't even an attempt to defend itself from the shadow as Chronos rushed forward and slammed the blade of its scythe into the shadow's back, before ripping it into the air and slamming it back down with another Garula. Upon crashing back onto the floor, the shadow faded back into a human form, a perfect copy of the victim. <br/><br/>As everyone surrounded it just in case, Sato took a moment to fix his hair, brushing the hair out from in front of his eyes. He didn't realize it in the fight, but the fatigue was hitting hard... A ringing in his ears dampened all his senses, but when he noticed the knights around them crumbling, the metal clanging against the floor, Sato couldn't help but smile through the headache. People fell out from inside, their style screaming gangs. The blonde girl collapsed.<br/><br/>Another job well done.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-h3""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IO5k4k3vQ0"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Sato Hashimoto // GAME-OVER Arcade</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">JULY 6TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Afterschool</span><br/>	It took Sato's eyes a bit to adjust to the relative darkness of the arcade. The sun was beaming outside, reminding everyone of how summer was coming up soon, and as a result, exams. It was a weird kind of atmosphere, really... not close enough to study much, but not far away enough to forget about it. It bugged him, even as he made his way into the arcade machine. He checked his phone again; he'd gotten the text just a few minutes after class had ended for the day. Sato had been considered going to the archery range, but this wasn't much of a question. It wasn't an if, it was a when.<br/> <br/>	Was this their ""place"" now? Even after having gone several times, Sato still couldn't really remember what any of the machines were, what the colorful anime decals were naming. It was... interesting. How Sato would never have come there if it was up to him, but that was part of the very charm he found himself thinking about every other minute in class: forward, bold, determined. Rash, quick to anger, strong headed. Maybe even single-minded, but it was hard to judge when the opposite was just as bad a color on himself. A negative and a negative make a positive, at least in math.<br/> <br/>	He was overthinking it again. There was no point in kidding to himself; he knew exactly where the P4AU machines were. It was the only game he'd ever played at the arcade, so it was a guiding beacon in a maze of button-mashing and joystick-slamming. He always felt the thing he always wanted to avoid when he saw Mako. He hated the way he couldn't find any breath, the way he couldn't think. He'd never felt this way before, at least not so strongly.<br/> <br/>	""Hey,"" was all that Sato could muster as he walked up to Mako, trying to give a confident smile. It failed to look anything more than wry, though, but he went with it.<br/><br/>	""Mako, I... how are you doing? Are you okay, after yesterday? It felt like the longest the team's been in the mirror world..."" Sato averted his eyes from Mako, trying not to indulge in the chemicals swimming around in his brain too much lest he go blind in such a brilliant light. At least, that was how he felt. But it was too much to put in words, too much to tell someone, and that was akin to drowning.</div>"

He pulled out an History book and a Math book, along with a copy of One Piece, volume 45. Lately he had been so busy with the dungeons and training his body that he was starting to ignore his academics. This showed in his latest test scores, the middle of the pack was no place for someone like him.<br/><br/>Every now and then he would stop studying his book and take a few minutes to read his manga, humming to himself in intrigue whenever something interesting happened. This pattern continued until he got up suddenly, stretching his arms and legs out. Ryan walked around the classroom a bit, pausing as he walked by some familiar looking sketches. <br/><br/>He looked at them a bit more closely, eyes widening as he realized they were Shadows they had fought. One of them was actually his Shadow, which definitely made him a bit uncomfortable. Those taunting eyes, as he was kicked around and ridiculed. That really wasn't something he wanted to dwell on. He kinda wanted to ask Akane why she was sketching their battles, but that was a really awkward question and would mean he would have to admit at looking at her private drawings. Ryan looked at Akane then looked back to the drawings and shook his head nervously. He shouldn't bother someone while they're sleeping anyways.<br/><br/>He went back to his chair to continue studying, but he was definitely less focused then he was a few minutes ago, glancing over at Akane nervously every few seconds.</div>"

It wasn't the first time she woke up like this, so she instantly recognized the place. Hospital bed, private ward. Of course her father was only concerned when her physical safety was threatened. No doubt he had upgraded her after her schoolmates brought her here. She didn't remember much from that night, just some dream about a new power she had awoken.<br/><br/>Her bodyguard was instantly at her side, and reaching for his phone. Even in her groggy state, Jun was fast enough to stop him from dialing the man. ""Please, Takashi. Not now."" She grumbled. Reaching for the cup of water, the man was quick to help her despite the annoyed glare she gave him. The man simply pleaded with a silent look. She was in no state to deny help, she supposed. The teenager grudgingly allowed her guard to help her take a sip.<br/><br/>""Your father-""<br/><br/>""I'm the one who's in the hospital, and I need some peace and quiet for now."" Jun cut off the man's protest. ""You can tell him after I've had dinner, alright? Speaking of which... I could use a Fat Boy's burger right now."" She laid her head back on the pillow as the bodyguard let out a wry laugh. Jun gave him her puppy eyed look and he simply shook his head.<br/><br/>""The nurses won't be happy.""<br/><br/>""My father is paying a lot for a private ward, they won't complain about a burger. <span class=""bb-i"">He</span> won't hold it against you for indulging me a little.

These he crushed quickly, composing himself as much as possible. He would not run away, not again. He knew what was waiting for him at the end of that path, and even if he crashed and burned here, it was better than having never tried at all. Still, this was going to be more difficult than he originally anticipated- with one look, all of the carefully-composed words he'd been formulating in his head had crumbled like a sand castle in the tide, and he was left with nothing but confusingly-intense emotions rattling around in his head. How did people tolerate this?<br/><br/>He took another deep breath, mustering up all the focus he possessed. He was doing this, speech or no.<br/><br/>""Hey,"" said Sato quietly, walking up to him. Mako bit his tongue to avoid jumping him with his confession right then and there.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Steady on, Moritomi.

Sato shuffled slightly, then spoke up again.<br/><br/>""Mako, I... how are you doing? Are you okay, after yesterday? It felt like the longest the team's been in the mirror world...""<br/><br/>Mako frowned slightly. Right... that had happened. He shook off the leftover nerves from that situation, and shrugged back at Sato.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""As well as I can be, I suppose. I mean, we did it, we're alive, and so are the victims, but... it's still kinda crazy. Doesn't really seem real, even now.""</font> He bit his lip in thought. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Still, I'm glad to hear that not every... <span class=""bb-i"">excursion</span> is like that. Felt like we were there for days, instead of hours.<br/><br/>""...Actually, uh... that's part of why I wanted to talk to you today.""</font> Mako felt his face practically ignite as he psyched himself up to proceed. He looked up at Sato, who was averting his eyes for some reason. Mako glanced around briefly, checking to see that they were mostly alone, then continued. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Here we go...</span><br/><br/>""Yesterday... however low a chance there was of it happening, we could have died. And despite making it out this time, we might not be so lucky later. Especially if this cult keeps escalating their... tactics... the way that they've been. And it's put some things in perspective for me.""</font><br/><br/>Was he doing this right? Was this going to work? Only way to move was forward...<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""See... when I faced my Shadow... one of the problems it made me come to grips with was... honesty. The lack thereof, so to speak. I'm so scared of being hurt that I bury how I really feel under a mask, that sort of thing. Before I experienced that, before I met you and Rui and everyone else... I'd probably be doing the same thing here that I did before. But I don't want that. At all, ever again. I want what I say and do to... to mean something. To be real.<br/><br/>""So... this is me, being real. I... I like you, Sato. Like, <span class=""bb-i"">like you,</span> intensely, dramatically, beyond typical senpai-kouhai bullshit. And if either of us died before I got the chance to say this to you, I'd never forgive myself for being such a coward. So... I like you. And, forgive me for being forward or presumptuous, but... I think you like me, too. And I'd... very much like it... if we could, um... date. Like... officially. That's, uh... yeah.""</font><br/><br/>By this time, Mako was staring fixedly at his shoes, face burning scarlet, barely getting the words out.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""So, I, uh... I guess the only question is... if you feel the same way. 'Cause if you do, I-I'd very much like to, ah... see where this goes. That's all.""</font><br/><br/>There it was. He'd said it.

""I agree, but... maybe it's just me, but you never quite get used to how it feels. This whole thing feels like a dream, but I don't think I want to wake up from it... Kind of like you..."" Sato said, unsure of what he was really saying. He didn't want to stop talking, keep the conversation where it was. Whatever they had now, Sato would be glad to cling onto it, but that's not how people worked. Fate had a way with moving on, and time was a train that didn't wait. In other words, there was no reward worth having free from risk. <br/><br/>Sato felt like he had to say something, but the words he knew couldn't express what he felt. That was okay, though, because Mako found something worth saying, and as he listened, it was like falling from a building. Except instead of the ground, Mako waited for him at the bottom. The air felt like it was rushing despite the stagnancy, his heart rate pounding faster than it ever did before.<br/> <br/>""It's so loud in here, Mako. I have so much to say right now and all I can hear are these stupid arcade machines."" Sato still couldn't look at the other boy. He knew that he wouldn't be able to think if he tried to, and saying what he had to say right now was too important. ""Everything changed when I joined the investigation team, and then everything changed again when I met you, Mako. I'm so sick of change, I'm sick of this god damn cult, and I'm sick of risking my life for people I've never met. But... If it meant spending another day with you, I'd do it all again. I want to make one last change with you.""<br/><br/>That was all he could think to say, but it still felt like not enough, so Sato mustered all his courage and fell into Mako, wrapping his arms around him.<br/><br/>""We've never seen eachother's shadows... but thank you for trusting me, Mako. Thank you for giving me a chance."" Sato whispered, just loud enough for Mako to hear. His fingers clutched onto the back of Mako's shirt, afraid of fate taking it all away. The moments passing felt too short and too long at the same time, in the same way long days melted into short years. <br/> <br/>""The moon isn't full or new or anything tonight, but do you want to watch it with me tonight? I don't want you to leave me today."" Sato broke away, smiling to himself like the love-struck idiot he was. He felt the tears running down from his eyes, and rubbed them away with the heel of his hand. ""Sorry, I just... I don't know what I'm saying anymore. Just... just tell me what to say, Mako. Let's talk some more.""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a></div></div>"

Instantly, he tried to get up, straining a muscle as he quickly tried to look around and see where he was. The fact he was in a hospital did not bode well, and his first thought was that he had been hurt again somehow. <br/>No. Everything was still there. There were no wounds, beyond the permanent ones. That was a nice surprise. He was just really tired.<br/><br/>Finally, he began to remember what had happened the night before. He was having a hard time believing it, but thinking about it harder, it became easier to accept. That entire velvet room thing had...been interesting as well. He made a point to talk to someone about that as soon as possible. He remembered other people in the other world, and some of them seemed familiar...<br/><br/>Someone walked into his room, Katsuro looked up to see someone walk in. His eye narrowed. He listened to Rui talk, and smirked, moving his hair over the mess that was once his left eye. Someone had removed his patch while he was out.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""You should sell things on television with a pitch like that.""</font><br/>He didn't know what to do. He didn't want to get put in danger again, but even so...it was a whole new world! Something that so few people probably got to experience. He had a feeling that the only reason he hadn't fainted from realizing its existence was due to not quite realizing the gravity of the revelation yet. Then again, that might have been the reason he fainted and woke up in this place anyway...<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""Alright then.""</font> He finally said, looking up. <font color=""#8e35ef"">""I've never been one to back away from a fight.""</font><br/><br/>He got up again, swinging his legs off the bed.<br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""Now, do you know when i can leave?

As Sato began to speak, that hope dimmed further and further- it sounded like a rejection, but he couldn't be sure. He could imagine, though. Mako sighed, and closed his eyes, bracing himself for whatever came...<br/><br/>""But..."" Mako opened his eyes. ""But"" was better than ""no.""

Mako sighed and relaxed into the gesture, returning the favor with his own hug, blinking rapidly in disbelief and a failed attempt to stop the happy tears that now gleamed in his eyes. His head spun in ecstatic delirium, unable to quite understand what was happening at the moment, still holding Sato in a bone-crushing hug, afraid that if he let go, he would lose all of this- this moment, this feeling, this... relationship.<br/><br/>""We've never seen each other's Shadows,"" said Sato quietly in his ear, ""but thank you for trusting me, Mako. Thank you for giving me a chance.""<br/><br/>Mako sniffed, still holding back tears. <font color=""#0076a3"">""Anytime.""</font><br/><br/>He had no idea how long they stood there, holding each other, but eventually they separated, both reaching up to wipe away tears.<br/><br/>""The moon isn't full or new or anything tonight, but do you want to watch it with me tonight?

""I also remember that everyone who came to save me were former abduction victims. I'm guessing this is what you guys have been up to.""<br/><br/>She sighed and turned back to the boy. ""If you're here to recruit me, I hope you realize by now my situation is a little... complicated. The rumours floating around school are true, not that anyone needs confirmation.

And, much as usual, Kotori was still in her seat finishing her notes for the day as most everyone filed past her; occasionally looking up and giving a passing greeting if anyone happened to speak to her as they went by but mostly focused on her writing. The classroom was mostly empty by the time she was finished and finally packed her things too - though not with near as much enthusiasm as those before her as a sigh escaped her lips, and not for the first time that day.<br/><br/>Exiting the classroom, she glanced up at the clock and, seeing as there was still a little time before she'd have to head out, decided to at least pay the Agriculture Club a visit - whilst she wouldn't be able to stay for long today, she might at least be able to help with checking up on the by now dozens upon dozens of different flowers and plants that were growing in the clubroom alone. That thought at least brought a small smile to her face as she headed down the hallway - only to abruptly halt in midstep when she heard a familiar voice. In particular, it was Matthew's - and it came in the form of a yell that could be heard down the hall even as she was only approaching the clubroom.<br/><br/>Her pace slowed, Kotori dithered on whether to draw closer to inspect - but after a few moments of deliberation, bit her lip and slowly turned back around. Between having been reassured that letting whatever it was that was happening between her two fellow club members best be left for them to work out between themselves and not knowing what to do or say even if she were asked, Kotori saw this as for the best - even if it didn't feel like it. As she passed through the main entrance, Kotori saw the other half of this predicament, Shizuka, currently preoccupied with the outside garden in the school courtyard - but for much the same reasons, Kotori continued on with but a small wave; unsure whether the other girl would actually see her as she did.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Hospital | After School</span><br/><br/>""Take care,"" the receptionist said cheerfully with a smile as Kotori gave a quick bow and hurried back outside whilst trying not to look too rushed doing so. It was only once outside and taken a seat on one of the benches along the path leading up to the hospital that she took a deep breath and started to feel her inner tension slowly loosening up again. No matter how many times she went, she just never could get used to hospitals - they always gave her an strange feeling of unease, even though she knew rationally that there was no reason for it. Still, at least the check-up had shown no sign of a worsening condition and indeed been mostly positive - but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a ill at ease knowing that this meant that her forthcoming operation was getting ever closer.<br/><br/>Kotori's malaise was not helped either by the face that she also knew that the two most recent kidnappees were currently in the hospital - and that she hadn't visited them despite having every opportunity to do so. She felt no small measure of guilt at that, but she really didn't want to spend more time inside than she had to. Looking back up at the hospital, she gave a small bow of her head and whispered an apology - it seemed like the least she could do.</div>"

Sato couldn't really say why he wanted to go look at it, though. It wasn't anything special, but maybe it was just the concept of moon-watching that appealed to him. Spending the evening alone together, silence blanketing them. The shrine was devoid of life apart from these two clockwork hearts.<br/><br/>	It all... This whole thing felt like a blur, really. Sato's head was still pounding, hands still shaking. He didn't even remember what they had said back in the arcade, just the feeling, the warmth, of Mako. Crying in the back of arcade was so stupid, but he couldn't help it. It took all he had to not start crying again even now. Maybe it was the kiss, maybe it was the embrace, but it was just... a lot of firsts, and it was hard to keep up with the night. Maybe it was the honesty that struck him the hardest; none of it was a lie. Chests cut open and beating hearts showing. <br/><br/>	Was that overly dramatic...? It was apt, at the very least.<br/><br/>	It was weird, the fluttering in his stomach. Sato had felt it before, of course: the nerves, the heat in his heart, complete lack of a desire to go home. This type of thing wasn't new to Sato. But, infatuation and school crushes couldn't ever hold a candle to this. The ferocity of it, the concoction of new and old feelings, was overwhelming. Those eyes felt like a riptide pulling Sato into an ocean of Mako, those hands sirens dragging him under the surface. All of that, and they were just sitting together on the steps to the shrine. <br/><br/>	He didn't want to seem like a baby about it, but watching the moon, Sato felt a million emotions he'd never felt before. Like his chest would explode with butterflies flying out, leaving a crimson stain on the velvet sky they were watching. What a stupid thing love was, to make someone think that exploding wouldn't even be that bad.<br/><br/>	""We should head back soon,"" Sato muttered, but instead of moving to get up or anything, he just leaned onto Mako's shoulder again. It didn't feel as cold that way. ""It's getting late,"" He said, but it didn't really matter. He could just sleep in class.<br/><br/>	... Aren't exams coming up?<br/><br/>	Oh, well. They'd rather study eachother anyway.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a></div></div>"

Whilst some had already given up hope of avoiding the remedial classes, others seemed to have taken a particularly keen interest in their studies - some had adopted meticulous note-keeping, much like Kotori had been doing all year round, whilst others seemed to be rushing off to the library or other study group - at least, that's how Kotori interpreted the odd change in habits of some of her classmates including Mako.<br/><br/>As for herself, she mostly kept up her usual routine - including today, as she finished her notes from the last class and began packing her things in the by now noticeably emptier classroom; albeit whilst glancing about to see if any more of her classmates or even students from other classes happened to be approaching - with the exams drawing ever nearer, not one day went by without someone asking her for help in their studies. Much to Kotori's chagrin, she'd had to apologise and explain that that was unfortunately - mostly citing things like club activities or helping out at home.<br/><br/>Though these weren't untrue, in truth she also felt far too nervous at the prospect of actually trying to teach someone else - which only served to give her more of a guilty conscience every time she declined such a request. It was a times likes these that she really wished that the results from the mid-terms hadn't been announced for everyone to see - perhaps then she might have been able to stay unnoticed more easily. A small sigh escaped her lips as she headed out of the classroom - thinking on all this wasn't exactly going to help her in any way, she realised and tried to push the thoughts to the back of her mind, limited success though she may have with it.<br/><br/>As she made her way to the school entrance, Kotori passed by several other students who were still hanging about. Though she didn't mean to eavesdrop, it was difficult not to hear the occasional words of ongoing conversations - but unlike at the start of the week, it seemed that the kidnappings had been dropped out of the pool of topics in favour of the upcoming exams or the summer break thereafter. Pushing open the main door, Kotori slowed after just a few steps as she thought on what to do with the rest of the day - besides having set aside some time later in the evening to keep up with her regular studies, she realised that she didn't have anything planned.<br/><br/>Thus Kotori found herself standing not far from the school entrance, internally debating whether to pop into the local library or to head home and hopefully finish the novel she'd been reading for the past few days.</div>"

Kotori could already see the crowd before she entered the building - and the prospect of having to navigate it just to see the results of the finals didn't exactly appeal too much, causing her to slow her pace. Even before this, she hadn't been looking forward to this day - with the constant distractions, worries and mirror world excursions courtesy of the Junsei Sekai Tensei, Kotori hadn't felt too confident going into the exams. Besides that, she was somewhat torn between wanting to somehow keep up the results form the mid-terms yet also not drawing as much attention as she'd done - which, all told, had left her somewhat nervous throughout the exam period and thus now even more worried that she may have made some avoidable mistakes.<br/><br/>Reaching the main entrance and stepping inside, Kotori suppressed a yawn before rubbing her eyes behind her glasses - the uncertainties hadn't allowed for very good sleep. Still, she was here now and with good reason - even if that meant trying to somehow make her way through the constantly moving sea of fellow students all with the same goal in mind. It took more than a few minutes and several more whispered <font color=""green"">""Excuse me""</font> and <font color=""green"">""Sorry""</font> before she somehow managed to make it all the way to the front. On the way, the students she passed seemed to be in quite a wide range of states - whilst some seemed quite proud of their achievements, most seemed to just be happy to have passed; quite unlike those few whose dejected faces immediately let anyone know that they were bound for remedial classes - a fate that Kotori very much hoped to avoid.<br/><br/>Once at the board, Kotori quickly looked over the list to locate the second year rankings and scanned it for her name - this time starting at the passing grades and slowly working her way up. As she worked her way up, she grew ever more nervous as her own name didn't show up - but just as she was starting to fear that she would have to find herself in the failing section, it turned out that quite the opposite was the case. The surprise at finding herself at 99 points was quite plain to see as Kotori blinked several times just to make sure that she was seeing right - but when nothing changed even after re-adjusting her glasses, a sigh of relief finally came over her lips as she made her way back out of the crowd.<br/><br/>Though she did feel a little guilty for scoring lower than during the mid-terms, Kotori was mostly just relieved to see that not only had she passed but also that she could finally lay to rest all the concerns about her studies throughout the year. It was only when she stepped out of the crowd that she realised that in her search she had neglected to see how either any of her classmates or the other members of the investigation team had done, much to her immediate guilty conscience. However, glancing back at the ever-present crowd, Kotori decided against trying to make her way through it a second time and instead headed for the main entrance to get some fresh air before deciding what to do with the rest of the day; though she did spare a glance over the crowd to see if she might recognise a familiar face therein - though that was a tall order considering the sheer size thereof.</div>"

A small groan escaped his lips as he looked into the crowd, all trying to get to the paper to look at it, scan it for their results, act with joy/dismay as they would, and manage to shove their way out. He couldn't help but smile. This had been his first exam in a while, and it was one of the few things that he looked forward to here. He had heard that being top of a class felt good, and would make you popular.<br/><br/>...the last one was unlikely, but he still felt a tinge of excitement as he joined the group around the board, followed by a tinge of irritation. Why couldn't these people come later, when it wasn't so crowded?. Why did they feel the need to come right n..oh. Right. Katsuro shook his head as he managed to get close, with someone knocking into him and almost making him fall over. He swore under his breath before finally managing to stand up straight and look at the sheet.<br/><br/>His eyes moved down the page, passing various people he didn't care about, with several scores proving themselves to be fairly high. Hell, even a few 99's, with one of them being in his class! It turns out the people here got a better education that he...<br/><br/>95.<br/><br/>...thought.<br/><br/>There was a moment of silence on his part for a moment, ignoring the people around him, his eyes fixed on that little five on the page. Two lines, and a single curved one, almost like it was a mocking smile aimed at him. Albeit a sideways one, all joined together to make a little number that reduced him to utter silence, even in his own mind.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef""> <span class=""bb-i""> ""..WHAT?!?!?""</span> </font><br/><br/>He read it again, and again, and again. The five did not change. He missed five points??!?!? Five fucking points? That was five times as much as he allowed himself to get wrong! What the hell was going on? And how the hell (or whatever that other place was) did some people get more than him?<br/><br/>He didn't know what to do. He had never been beaten in academic score. Granted, this was the first time he had ever competed, but he had worked almost constantly, apart from that little trip to fuck-knows-where! Instantly, he began to think. Hopefully this was a spelling error, but what if it wasn't? How could his standards have slipped by so much? He didn't have access to any of his tutors, he had already studied a lot, what was he supposed to do? Was he becoming stupid?<br/><br/>Suddenly, he stopped and looked up, noticing someone leave. He barely knew anyone here, and was even worse at linking names to faces, but he recognized this one. Kotori. Someone in his class. Shy, but evidently knew something he didnt if she had got higher than him! <br/><br/>He pushed his way out, walking quickly towards her. <font color=""#8e35ef""> ""Excuse me!"" </font> He asked, trying to control his rage at the score and surprisingly succeeding. He caught up to her, caught his breath, and spoke.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""Excuse me, you are Kotori, aren't you? I dont know if you know me, but im Katsuro Takuma. I'm in your class. I'm sorry to bother you, but i wanted to ask something..."" </font><br/><br/>He took a deep breath.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""I noticed your...excellent score in the test."" </font> He said, managing to get the <font color=""#8e35ef"">""Excellent score"" </font> through his teeth. <font color=""#8e35ef""> ""You evidently have some excellent study methods, so i was wondering..."" </font><br/><br/>He pulled a wallet from his pocket and pulled out a pile of yen notes. <br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""Could you give me some private tutoring lessons? I would like to know how to study as well as you as well as get better at subjects in general."" </font> He waved the wad of notes.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""How does 10,000 yen per lesson sound?"" </font><br/><br/></div>"

The kidnapping of a yakuza's daughter was just an escalation in the series of abductions. Her father had been furious and sent people out looking for those responsible, as well as the rival family that had sent its men after her. Needless to say, there had been a fair amount of violence in the past week. Then, the police got involved.<br/><br/>Jun had been pretty far removed from all this. She had eyes on her everywhere now, of course. From police officers making sure she wasn't caught up in the inter-gang war, hoping to catch another attempt on her safety, to her bodyguards, and everyone at school. She hadn't even dared to talk to the boy who had visited her in the hospital.<br/><br/>Not that she tried to anyway. The finals had come and gone and she was a rather bit more focused on her exams. Thankfully, she always kept her grades decent so even with the additional pressure, she had pretty much gotten A's on all her tests, albeit just barely. Her ranking wasn't all that great, but she honestly didn't care. Her new power had given her a new purpose. She was going to do well in school, find a good university and do something with her life that didn't involve being a gangster.<br/><br/>Her kendo training helped, and she vented her stress out on her instructor. He praised her effort even as he was massaging his shoulder from the force of her strikes. Everyone needed a hobby and Jun had to admit she like parts of her life being raised among the yakuza. The fact that she could beat up someone and not apologize as part of her training, for example.<br/><br/>She silently moved past the crowd gathering at the scoreboard, giving a few customary greetings to people she recognized. She left for home immediately, texting Rui as she walked home with lighter steps than she ever had taken. <span class=""bb-i"">One obstacle down, one more to go.</span> He had given her his number and asked her to consider. It had taken a while but she made up her mind.

Give me a few days to persuade my father.</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2"">Himura Household // Evening</div><br/><br/>Dinner was tense. Jun's father was still trying to track down the cultists to no avail, while fighting retaliations from a rival yakuza. His sour mood would usually have the blonde girl trying to leave the dinner table as soon as possible, but tonight was an exception. She kept steeling herself, repeating the mantra she always did in her head during kendo. <span class=""bb-i"">Eyes forward. Look for a chance, and strike.</span><br/><br/>""Father."" Her tone was dead, stiff, and betrayed the seriousness of her resolve when she tried to sound casual. The man looked up, eyes glaring at her knowing she was about to say something to piss him off. Jun hated to admit it but her father at least knew that part of her well enough. ""Call off your lapdogs and let me handle myself. They're a nuisance, and it's bad enough you have them lingering outside my school.""<br/><br/>Her father opened his mouth to speak, but the girl didn't let him. She smacked her bowl upside on the table and looked him in the eye. ""I am not helpless. As much as I loathe saying this, I am the daughter of a yakuza. Let anyone who comes after me try their best. I will exact my price in blood before I let anything happen to me again."" Was that... pride?<br/><br/>""I am not your pawn, some treasure to be kept hidden away until you're ready to marry me off for power. I am not a son like you hoped for, but I am my own person nonetheless. If you insist on treating me like on, meet me in the dojo in ten minutes. Your Masamune against mine."" She had thrown down the gauntlet. It was extremely disrespectful of her to challenge her own father to a duel, but his glare was met with her own.<br/><br/>The man, for once, backed down. ""I'd normally strike you for such insolence. But I see your ordeal has only tempered your strength. This isn't petulance. I'll allow your request, as long as you remain within Warakuma. Venture outside, and I will have my men follow you.""<br/><br/>Jun nodded. Fair enough, she wasn't intending on going out in to the city anyway, not so soon. In Warakuma, any assailant would be hard pressed to ambush her before she could react. Out in the crowded streets of Tokyo, that was a different thing altogether. She was stubborn and bold and hot-tempered at times, but she wasn't an idiot.<br/><br/>""Oh, and this does not mean I approve of your taste in partners. Try and use this opportunity to shame the family, and I will lock you in here until I find a suitor.""<br/><br/>Her fists clenched at the insult he just had to deliver. Always had to have the last word. Still, that was a battle for another day. She had gotten what she needed for now. She'd fight that war later. There was a far more important one going on right now.<br/><br/>That night, she sent the confirmation to Rui. <span class=""bb-i"">I'm in.</span></div>"

Seeing as they'd not spoken very much either before or after said kidnapping, Kotori assumed that he was calling out to one of the other students around him and started to turn back around - at least she noticed that he was both heading towards her and looking straight at her.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> she went, blinking in surprise as he reached her in short time given his rather brisk pace. As it turned out, she really was the one being called out to as he then spoke up, introducing himself formally and then asking if he could pose a question.

All the while, she kept her eyes firmly locked on the ground before her in an attempt not to notice the other students passing by whilst her unconscious habit of playing with the hem of her skirts made itself known once more.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I...

He still had his scars and the damaged eye, people often stared when they didn't think he was looking. For goodness sake, it was just some burns and a damaged eye, everyone would look like that with a bit of fire involved! That said, where they looking at the money? Did they want to tutor him? Well that would be stupid, he probably got a lot more than they did, even with the...five.<br/><br/>He shuddered slightly as he turned back to Kotori, only to react with shock and then irritation when she began to stutter, then look at the ground as she played with the hem of her skirt. Katsuro noticed all of this, and raised his eyebrow in confusion at the strange mannerisms. Finally, she spoke, stuttering in a way that made it quite difficult for Katsuro to hear her over the noise in the background of the room. From what he could hear, she muttered something about how her score wasn't anything special, and how she didn't really know how to teach someone. At hearing this, Katsuro's eye narrowed ever so slightly.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef""> ""I see..."" </font> he said quietly, a moment of silence passing between the two as the people around them continued to to move around and make a horrible noise.

Still, she did prefer this outcome, even if it unfortunately meant that she had to decline her probably dejected classmate's request, as it at least meant that they wouldn't be continuing to undoubtedly draw any more attention to themselves.<br/><br/>Yet just as Kotori was about to thank Katsuro for his understanding and apologise for not being able to help, the boy spoke up once more - with a cheer to his voice that was quite the turn from his previous brief muttering. As it turned out, he hadn't understood what she was trying to say at all - though Kotori couldn't really blame him, considering her attempt at conveying her point hadn't exactly been a shining example of conviction - and instead seemed to be redoubling his effort to get her to somehow teach him when she had no idea how to do so; even going so far as to increase the amount of money he was offering - which only served to further Kotori's embarassment as she was fairly certain, though she daredn't lift her gaze to confirm, that at this point, half the school was either throwing them strange looks or whispering among themselves about the whole scene.<br/><br/>She felt a small pang of guilt when he added a final please to his words - even if his methods seemed a little odd, he still seemed to genuinely want to better himself and was asking her to help him. <font color=""green"">""N-no, I-, uhm, it's...""</font> she tried, her voice even quieter than usual - only to realise that rather than denying his request, it sounded more like she was answering his question of whether his price was enough. <font color=""green"">""Ah, ehm, I-I mean i-it's not about that,""</font> she quickly added, shaking her head as she did, <font color=""green"">""A-all I do is, uhm, in class I-I take notes a-and review things at home, s-so, uhm, t-there's really nothing special...""</font> Kotori's ever-growing embarassment and discomfort, which was not exactly hard to see at this point, did not help either the volume of her voice nor the smoothness of her speech in the slightest - in fact, at this point she was already starting to glance around to see if there was perhaps someone else around who might be able to help Katsuro in a way that didn't require her presence or, failing that, just how far exactly they were from the main entrance.</div>"

Quite a lot of people were standing and whispering nearby, and even he could figure out that it was about this conversation. <br/><font color=""#8e35ef"">""One moment."" </font> He said to her, his voice going cold before he turned around.<br/><br/>He didn't say a word, he simply looked at them, his single vivid blue eye staring at them.

After this, he looked back at Kotori.<br/><br/><font color=""#8e35ef""> ""...i see."" </font> He spoke at last, the ice still in his voice before getting cheery again almost as if with the flick of a switch.

It wasn't a failing mark but how could she have been careless in her studies? The whole kidnapping incident a few weeks before might've contributed to her stress but... she knew that wasn't the main cause of her lack of concentration.<br/><br/>With the desire to shake off the depressing mood, the maiden left the exam bulletin board area and wondered what could lighten the mood. The mall... no good, the cosplay cafe... Kenji would bring up the topic of her exam result. Somewhere peaceful....

It had been awhile since her last visit at the park, she thought to herself as she walked aimlessly along the path.<br/><br/>The girl's feet stopped.

Still, when Katsuro didn't reply immediately, Kotori began to faintly hope that he finally realised that there really wasn't anything she could do to help him - but that hope vanished just a moment later when he spoke up again; albeit only to excuse himself for a moment. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Kotori went, bringing her eyes briefly up from the ground to blink in confusion - focused as she was on her own troubles, she hadn't quite caught the slight shift in tone and was left to wonder exactly what he was doing as he slowly looked around. It was only when the first few of the previously whispering students slowly backed away or started moving that she realised that he wasn't looking for someone but instead seemed to glaring at them, if only with one uncovered eye given his asymmetrical hairstyle.<br/><br/>Kotori couldn't help but feel a slight bit nervous when his focus turned back to her - and the relief at hearing him finally agree that there was nothing for her to do easily outweighed the cold hint in his voice as he stopped practically waving the money around in front of her. But just as she was about to silently sigh - not having noticed that she'd been holding her breath quite a few times - Katsuro spoke up yet again; this time though asking to instead accompany her and to continue talks on the topic as he did and leaving Kotori rather conflicted. On one hand, she was only too glad to get away from the school after what felt like every single student having witnessed the embarassing scene first hand and he even seemed to have given up on the whole tutoring idea - yet he still seemed quite persistent on somehow trying to get something out of her that she didn't know how to give.<br/><br/>In her discomfort, Kotori was more than a little thankful when a familiar voice made itself heard. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> she went once again as she looked over to see Rui coming closer, praising their test results and questioning the need for any improvements. Though she couldn't quite suppress further embarassment at the words, she was still glad that he was here - as she would have been for anything which might somehow get everyone's attention focused on anything but herself, even as she gave a small bow in greeting. <font color=""green"">""Ah, th-thank you, Shinichi-san,""</font> she said - though she couldn't help but add <font color=""green"">""Keeping up studies is important, even during breaks. A-at least, I think...""</font> Her voice trailed off toward the end as she realised, a moment too late, that his had been a rhetorical question.<br/><br/>Still, with Rui's timely arrival, she had yet to answer Katsuro's question - which just left her back in the most unfortunate situation of wishing to decline yet having no way to do so without being rude when all he did was ask nicely. That is, until she realised that perhaps there was no need to: <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, m-maybe Sh-Shinichi-san might know a... better way? I-I mean, there's really nothing special about m-me, so...</font> Her quiet voice had an almost apologetic tone to it as, once more, her gaze was fixed firmly on the ground and her fingers were playing along her skirt's hem; her guilty conscience returning almost immediately in full effect when she realised that it was sounding rather much like she was trying to just push Katsuro's problem onto Rui just because she didn't know what to do about it.</div>"

To all of it. Studying, Rokurou, Mako, worrying about school. Exams were tomorrow.<br/><br/>	He and Mako hadn't talked much since that day at the arcade. Well, they texted and stuff and all that, but they hadn't really... done anything together since then. Maybe he was trying to rush it-- the chemicals in his head screaming for treatment. That was all love was, right? Just a series of fires in your brain, but it really felt like a lot more to Sato.<br/><br/>	""Hey,"" Rokurou muttered, erasing everything he'd just written. Sato narrowed his eyes as he watched the numbers fade away; most of it was actually right, it was just a few things that had been forgotten. Maybe he should've said something before Rokurou erased it all, but then again, he was too lost in thought to think of words. ""How'd you do this one?""<br/><br/>	Sato sighed, picking up a mechanical pencil and scribbled everything they had just done again. ""You were on the right track, you just forgot the exponent rules again. It shouldn't be that hard, Rokurou."" Rokurou knit his brows and watched Sato write out the actual answer. Nothing seemed to click in his head, so after a moment of praying, Sato pointed to where Rokurou had messed up originally. ""Right here-- two similar terms multiplied together add together their exponents. Come on, this is middle school stuff.""<br/><br/>	""Sorry I don't remember stuff good,"" Rokurou huffed, leaning back and staring down the remaining questions Sato had written out. ""How're you so good at this stuff?""<br/><br/>	""Because I study, Rokurou.""<br/><br/>	""I'm pretty sure I'm naturally a piece of shit and you ain't, bud."" Rokurou said, leaning forward once again. ""It's hopeless, man. I'm not passing this.""<br/><br/>	Sato, at this point, was visibly frustrated. Studying was a lot more obnoxious when you were trying to tutor someone who could barely understand why a negative times a positive is a negative. Maybe Rokurou was right, maybe it was in their genes to be good or bad at math, but something in Sato couldn't stomach the notion. At the very least, he wouldn't let such a thing stand in their way of passing a stupid exam.<br/><br/>	Sato looked up from the papers suddenly, eyes snapping directly to Rokurou's. The sudden directness surprised Rokurou, causing him to left his eyebrows out of amusement. ""I don't really care that bad at math at this point, the fact is that you have to pass this exam and I'm not going to let all the studying we've done together go to waste because you got upset. We will both pass this regardless of whether we're 'good' or 'bad' at it. The only thing we need is you to belief in yourself for fucking once in your life, okay?""<br/><br/>	Rokurou couldn't help but give a wide grin at this, and Sato suddenly felt his face go red. That was definitely too much. But...<br/><br/>	""Okay, okay,"" Rokurou chuckled, picking up a pencil once again. ""I'll try, but I still think this is a waste of time."" <br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbDkfG56Jbk"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank""><span class=""bb-b"">JULY 13TH 2015, MONDAY <br/>through <br/>JULY 18TH 2015, SATURDAY<br/><br/>Week of the Exams</span></a></div><br/>	Once Monday started, the entire week was nothing but exams and studying. The more studious students would of course, study all evening in preparation for the next subject. The less serious ones might also do a bit, but ultimately, the evenings were recovery periods for a lot of people. Rokurou would've fallen into the latter if had not been for Sato forcing him to study together.<br/><br/>	The first exam was Math. Sato, of course, excelled here; he was confident he didn't get a single question wrong. Rokurou, on the other hand, almost cried when he got out of the exam. Key-word almost. The following exams followed the sequence of Japanese, English, History, Science, and Literature. Rokurou reported that he did best on the English one, which was both surprising and disappointing. Sato felt confident about all but Literature. He had forgotten to really study for it much at all and found himself having to cram as hard as possible on the night before. If there was a place where he lost most of his points, it was definitely there.<br/><br/>	Soon enough, though, exams were over. For what felt like the most cathartic of all the times, everyone rushed out of the room as soon as possible, flooding the halls in staggered bursts. Anxiety permeating the school with the scent of nervous sweat and the tears of students who knew they failed. All that remained between them and the dreaded results was Sunday, but Sato didn't really realize that until Monday. As soon as he got home, as far as he was concerned, he woke up Monday morning.<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZYJ-5sLazQ"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Sato Hashimoto // Warakuma High</a></div><span class=""bb-b"">JULY 20TH 2015, MONDAY<br/>Noon</span><br/>	July 20th meant two things to the students of Warakuma High: One, school was finally over for the summer and they had weeks of break to enjoy! And Two, exam results were posted. For some they were a beacon of their accomplishment, but for some they were a damnation to hell. It wasn't the final test at least, so anyone could still raise their marks with the rest of the school year, but Sato doubted any significant change could be made in half a year-- after all, the third-years were graduating by the end of it.<br/><br/>	That realization hit Sato like a truck. He'd been so focused on getting good marks so he could go to medical school for his family, but after everything that's been happening... All he knew was that the path he'd been on was no longer the one he walked, and while it may have concerned him normally, the only part of the future he could concern himself about was the cult and the mirror world. It was like bleeding out on the road and worrying about the kid you left at daycare.<br/><br/>	That was pretty a ham-fisted metaphor, Sato thought. Or was it a simile?<br/><br/>	Anyway, Sato found himself arriving at pretty much the same time as everyone else. The crowd around the noticeboard was huge, but Sato slowly made his way in as people left once they got their results. Once he could see, Sato checked a few things first: Several people had failed, mostly in the lower grades. Most notably, Noboru, who was being dragged away by the remedial teachers as everyone watched. He had failed apparently, just by a point. Would that conflict with mirror world stuff? Either way, second of all was Mako-- he did pretty well at a 95, but was outclassed by other students who scored significantly higher. Not bad. Third was Rokurou... Sato felt his heart beating as he searched for Ishihara on the list, but felt the relief flood over him once he saw the 82. The same result as the midterm.<br/><br/>	Sato oddly found himself less concerned about his own mark, but he was still pleased to find that familiar 97. Considering the finals were harder than the midterms, Sato was pleased with the result. All that studying had paid off for both of them, even though he still felt a bit of bile rise up in his throat when he saw Ayano's 99. That was better off left uncommentated, though, as he was trying his best to move on from... all of that.<br/><br/>	A lot of people stepped to the side to discuss in groups, and Sato even recognized people he knew from class or from the investigation team. He spotted Kotori, Rui, and that guy that had just recently rescued, Katsuro, chatting together, but he decided against it, seeing as it felt rude and they were underclassmen anyways. <br/><br/>	Whatever. Sato quickly decided that he'd much rather go home and watch some shows anyway. Self-care and all that.</div>"

There was also a commotion going on with what appeared to be Kotori and the guy they rescued from the mirror world, Katsuro. He had originally panicked and tried to heal him after seeing all the burns, assuming they were from some Shadow. After the first few Diaramas he stopped amd figured out they were prior injuries. He was waving around some money, which was probably not a good idea unless he wanted to get kidnapped again. <br/><br/>He decided to approach them so he could prevent escalation, although now that he thought about it he probably couldn't do much.

The crowd around them had thinned, although he couldnt tell if that was because of his cold look or simply because they wanted to go home. Katsuro couldnt tell what he would have preferred. There were still quite a lot of people still crowding around the board.<br/><br/>He was about to open his mouth to mutter something at Rui, only for another figure to walk towards them. He couldn't remember who this was, although the name Ryan popped to mind. Good. Now he could talk to them without looking a fool, as long as he remembered their names.<br/><br/>Then again...he looked at the three, realizing what he had gotten himself into.

He had managed to be cheerful while talking to Kotomi, all he needed to do was think about what a good job he could do with her help, but now, she wasn't going to help him.

I-I'm fine, A-Alon-san...""</font> she quietly said in response to Ryan's questions - even if neither her awkward tone of voice didn't exactly lend that statement very much credence.<br/><br/>Still, she was quite thankful for the fact that with more people around, there'd be focus on her - however, this seemed to have quite the opposite effect on Katsuro whose confidence from just a few moments ago vanished into nothingness as he stumbled over his words. He seemed rather distracted as he half-heartedly agreed with Ryan - only to apologise for his previous curiosity. <font color=""green"">""Ah, n-no, no, it's not, uhm, a bother...</font> Kotori quickly said, shaking her head for emphasis - and feeling her guilty conscience creep back up for having seemingly caused his now apparent discomfort by denying his request so harshly. Concern coloured her features when he momentarily winced as he absent-mindedly drew his fingers over the side of his face covered by his hair - but even as he recovered immediately, Kotori did feel a measure of sympathy for the scarred boy who didn't have the luxury of being able to easily hide his scars.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Another apology caught Kotori by surprise - enough to not even notice Katsuro getting her name not quite right - though she quickly recovered and shook her head. <font color=""green"">""Ah, no, i-it's fine,""</font> she said, even if one would have to be both blind and deaf to not notice that that statement was a bit of a stretch. As he then proceeded to ask some questions - such as where they, if they were friends, happened to go after school. Kotori, however, was rather more busy staring at the ground, a red tinge undeniable on her face - though it was embarrassing to admit, even to herself in her own thoughts, being thought of as friends did have a nice kind of sound to it for the rather hesitant girl.<br/><br/>Luckily though, her embarrassment passed quickly enough for no one to notice, she hoped, before Rui took to answering Katsuro's questions - and in turn reminding her that, besides coming to school to check her results, she did not have any plans yet. When Rui then mentioned the Yoshida book café, Kotori's curiosity was quickly piqued - she'd walked past it a several times already, but never actually gone inside; never quite feeling comfortable with going there alone - after all, a café sounded like a rather trendy place which she had no illusions of being a word anyone would use to describe her. She still remembered her last visit to one when Leiko had practically dragged her to the her friend, Saya's, family business and how she'd felt a little out of place.<br/><br/>Still, the fact that Yoshida's was also a library of sorts did have a certain undeniable appeal to the bookish Kotori. <font color=""green"">""Ah, I heard that too,""</font> she quickly agreed when Rui mentioned their selection of books - only to fumble over her words when she realised that she might have interjected someone else. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, th-that sounds n-nice. I-I mean... i-if a-anyone else wants to... uhm...""</font> her voice grew quieter before finally trailing off while her hands were once more preoccupied with her skirt - though Rui had put it forth as a suggestion, it might sound a little presumptuous of her to think that anyone else might be interested in going; leaving Kotori to hope that she didn't step on anyone's toes - and to adjust her glasses that were starting to slip downwards from how much she was averting her eyes throughout the whole conversation in her embarrassment..</div>"

The shopping mall wasn't a long walk from the school, so it was little surprise that the mall was teeming with students enjoying their first day of summer break, doing whatever they will. They were of course still in uniform like they were, since they only had to show up to school today for results. After a brief walk through the mall they finally arrived at the book cafe. Predictably it had mostly students as it's patrons today, some chatting, others reading, others reading while enjoying something from the cafe. It was a nice, cozy little place with basically a small library at the back of the store, with the cafe at the storefront. What does stand out most is how new this place looks in comparison to other stores outside the mall, it really drove home that Warakuma was starting to become a much more populated place, the booming industry in the area was greatly affecting the town. What kind of effects though were not Rui's current concern, <br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So what do you guys usually read?""</font>, he asked as he stepped in.

Furthermore, the larger the group, the more likely it was that the others would focus on each other - in fact, given that she wasn't exactly the best candidate for holding a conversation more than a few words in length, she remained quiet for most of the way to the mall; only really answering if anyone directed a question at her but otherwise listening to whatever the others might be saying. Given that most everyone had come to school to see the results as soon as they were posted and thus were now free to do what they willed on their first day of summer break, there was quite a large number of other students out and about - often in groups as well, heading to wherever had caught their fancy.<br/><br/>Arriving at the mall, it was quite clear that they weren't the only students here too - most everywhere Kotori looked, she could see at least one or two fellow uniform-clad people. As she looked about, she noticed that there was an undeniable aggregation of high schoolers - mostly from Warakuma High School, though she did spot a few Shoujin Private High uniform here and there - in and around the clothing shops of which there were quite a few in the mall; likely looking for some more summery clothes now that they'd be getting enough opportunities to wear them. Seeing that, Kotori made a mental note for herself - whilst she wasn't in dire need of anything in particular, the summer season starting in full most likely meant that anything that hadn't sold well in spring would likely be on sale and a decent bargain.<br/><br/>As the small group arrived at Yoshida's, Kotori could that it too was popular among her peers - but the sight of the full shelves toward the back of the café did bring a small smile to her face for a brief while. Stepping over the threshold and entering the establishment proper, she gave a small bow in greeting toward the staff at the counter before glancing about the patrons already present. Most of them were sat at the tables and engrossed in the book of their choice, though some had come in pairs or more and were chatting with one another - though it was an unusual mix of atmospheres between a quiet library or bookstore and a lively café, it wasn't an unpleasant one, Kotori thought.<br/><br/>She was abruptly brought out of her reverie when Rui spoke up, addressing none of the three present in particular as he asked them their book preferences. <font color=""green"">""Huh? Oh, mystery a-ah, uhm, m-mostly...""</font> Kotori said, with what almost might have passed for enthusiasm if it weren't for the usual quietness of her voice - at least until she seemed to stumble over her own words and trailed off. Whilst it was true that she did enjoy the excitement that mystery novels promised, she was also quiet partial to romance novels - but after a quick glance about, she realised that that probably wasn't going to be very interesting for the three boys and thus made her best attempt at not bringing it up even though she'd almost let it slip; silently congratulating herself on her quick thinking at avoiding any embarassment or awkwardness.<br/><br/>Though she did glance between the others, a slight curiosity as to their tastes in books not completely deniable, Kotori's gaze was almost inexorably drawn to the book shelves; her bespectacled eyes passing over the helpful signs that signified which genre any given section corresponded to. As it turned out, she was in luck when she found both sections she was looking for - but though her curiosity as to the selection of mystery novels was most definitely piqued, she hesitated to head over immediately for want of rudely dismissing the others' answers as to their taste in books.</div>"

Katsuro, meanwhile, seemed a little more embarrassed as he pointed over toward a similar set of book shelves as Ryan and then walking over. Rui, on the other hand, sounded curious about their respective choices, though evidently not enough to delve for further details. Kotori was quick to avoid his eyes when he looked between those that had answered him - only to almost jump when Ryan suddenly spoke up about enjoying a good mystery novel as well; though evidently not quite enough to not correct his initial enthused exclamation to a slightly more impartial one.<br/><br/>Rui, seemingly intrigued by all this mystery talk, seemed to decide that that was going to be his choice today as he picked up a manga before gesturing towards one of the empty tables and designating it as a meet-up place once everyone had made their choices in turn. Kotori gave a quick nod in agreement as everyone had split up already in search of an interesting book or already heading over to get started on one. Thus left to her devices, she turned her bespectacled gaze to the book shelves before her - the mystery section thankfully being quite close, even if the romance novels received a brief look - and looked over the various titles on display. She made a quick mental list as she went over them, ticking off one after another for a multitude of reasons - she'd already read that one, didn't like the sound of that title or had found that author's writing style not to her particular liking - as she unconsciously brought a finger to her lips, gently tapping against them in thought.<br/><br/>After selecting a few titles for a closer inspection and finally settling on one which she recognised neither title nor author of but which promised to be intriguing if a quick inspection was anything to go by. Before heading back to the table, Kotori quickly checked her phone - both to ensure that it was muted so as to not disturb anyone in the admittedly rather unlikely event of anyone trying to contact her and to see that her mother had replied with a simple OK to her previous message about being home a little later that she'd sent on the way to the café. With all pending matters thusly settled, she glanced about the café to see where the others were - and noticing that there were several other students from Warakuma High School about, though none of whom she recognised for more than their uniform.<br/><br/>Still, there was a small trace of a smile on Kotori's face as she looked down at the book in her hands - the prospect of a good story usually had that effect. Taking a seat at the table where Rui had already found himself a space, Kotori wasted no time and quickly turned the first few pages to get to the beginning of the story. She only noticed the others presences in passing if and when they took a seat as well - or spoke up, as she only realised after a few belated seconds. <font color=""green"">""Huh?""</font> she went when she realised that Rui had asked a question and having to take a moment to piece together she words she'd heard back into a full sentence in her mind.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Oh, I-""</font> Kotori started - but then remembered that the last time someone had asked her a similar question, they'd gone ahead and gotten something for her despite her protests and subsequent guilty conscience. As such, she was wary of abusing any such kindness or inconveniencing someone else and thus gave a quick shake of her head mid-sentence: <font color=""green"">""Ah, I-I mean, I'm fine for the moment. I'll... uhm, get something later.""</font> Even though Kotori's tone wasn't exactly the most convincing, she nonetheless felt a small yet still inordinate sense of pride at having managed to avoid any awkwardness so successfully for the second time today - though it didn't last very long before her mind's focus was entirely engrossed in the book before her.</div>"

Had she looked up, she might have noticed that Ryan was glancing in the other boy's direction as he posed his question or that Katsuro wore a slightly confused expression on his face after being spoken to by another fellow student - but such details were lost on her; her attention entirely given to reading - to the point of not even noticing that her own face betrayed her thoughts occasionally as she did so, giving rise to brief bouts of worry or wonder as her eyes darted over the pages. Judging by the rapidity of the changes in expression, it looked like she'd just gotten to a point where the story was getting particularly interesting.<br/><br/>Katsuro's trailing voice found little heed when he didn't follow it up with anything else in particular, leaving the table in silence - at least until Rui returned with drinks for everyone. <font color=""green"">""Ah, thank you,""</font> Kotori said absent-mindedly, almost mumbling the words when the fact that she hadn't actually asked for anything escaped her mind - at least until, a few seconds after the fact, the movement of her eyes stopped mid-sentence for a brief moment. She blinked in brief confusion before glancing up at the glass before her: <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> she went, needing a moment to realise that despite having thought she'd managed to avoid bothering him with an order, Rui had still gotten her a glass as well. Immediately, her guilty conscience resurfaced - and stronger than before, considering that she'd previously thought she'd successfully gotten around being a bother.<br/><br/>Rather than make things more embarrassing than they already were, Kotori quickly held up the book in her hands; partly covering her face as she did and trying to find where she'd just left off a moment ago. However, just as she was about to continue reading, Rui spoke up once more. Kotori's eyes glanced up from the pages and at the boy as he mentioned the meeting place - and that the warehouse they were using until now wasn't exactly the most inviting choice in locations. It was hard to refute that - though in Kotori's mind, she first thought he meant another place to both store both the collection of armaments and the large mirror that served as their entrance to the mirror realm. As such, she had a hard time coming up with a place that would be be more convenient - though after a few moments of imagining a dozen students excusing themselves to the restrooms of a restaurant to slip into the mirrors there, she realised that Rui probably meant something more along the lines of a meeting place to discuss their findings.<br/><br/>Luckily though, she'd managed to avoid embarrassing herself with such misconceptions by simply staying silent as she thought on it, unconsciously adjusting her glasses that had begun to slip while she'd been looking down at her book. She waited for a few moments to see if anyone else broke the silence following Rui's question before she spoke up. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... a ca-café? Of sorts...? Or...""</font> Kotori's voice trailed off as she glanced between the others; hoping that they might have a more concrete or suitable location in mind.</div>"

Rather than find a new place, he seemed to think it easier to instead simply make the warehouse a little less uninviting - a suggestion which, given its state, wasn't exactly an unappealing one. On the other hand, Kotori wondered just how one might get the furniture into the warehouse without attracting any undue attention - but before she got to that, Ryan added that a café might instead serve as a meeting point just as well; leaving the warehouse to simply serve as their staging grounds.<br/><br/>Whilst Katsuro remained silent on the matter - unsurprising, given that he had likely yet to see said warehouse in the first place - Rui seemed to think the matter over before speaking up; mentioning that he could let Kaminari, who probably would know more on any legalities and the like, check the matter. As he reminded them that they had both ample space and the time to use it, Kotori briefly thought on what they might do to make the place a little friendlier - perhaps a touch of green might be nice, but given that they weren't exactly visiting the warehouse too often she was apprehensive to suggest that she bring some flowers to liven the place up if she couldn't also make sure that they'd be treated right.<br/><br/>Either way though, Rui went on to mull over the interim solution of relocation their meetings to a café initially - but though she quite liked the atmosphere, seeing as it reminded her of a library, she couldn't help but feel that that very quality would disqualify it as a suitable location. Given that they'd likely be wanting to discuss matters regarding the mirror realm, they'd undoubtedly be disturbing the other guests - and there was also the matter that they might not want to be overheard discussing abandoned buildings, kidnappings and strange other worlds.<br/><br/>But before Kotori could start thinking of another place, Rui already mentioned the cosplay café. <font color=""green"">""Eh? Star Drop Café?""</font> Kotori remembered visiting the place, found not far outside the mall, about two weeks ago - though at the time, she hadn't paid much heed to it as she'd been far more preoccupied with seeking advice from Rui on what to do to somehow help with the yet-unresolved rift between Matthew and Shizuka, her two fellow Agriculture Members. Surprise made way for a more sombre expression over Kotori's face at that thought - even as she tried to put it aside for the moment, seeing as there was still the matter at hand.<br/><br/>As she thought about it, it did seem like a suitable choice - given the at times a little odd choices in cosplays that the café hosted, or so they might appear to someone who only caught glances thereof in passing, the investigation team's choice of topics would perhaps not seem too far out of place. Furthermore, she couldn't deny the convenience for herself, seeing as it lay both on her way home from school and wasn't too far from either - and reaching the warehouse from there would only take a few minutes as well.<br/><br/>All told, it seemed like a solid chocie - as long as she told herself to ignore the fact that she'd undoubtedly feel embarrassed at entering the café again. Preferring quieter places, she wasn't exactly the prime clientele thereof - but between knowing that she'd not have visit alone and that only the staff was doing the cosplaying, she resolved to bear with it. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... that, ah, might work...?""</font> she said, quickly glancing between the others at the table even as her voice trailed off towards the end.</div>"

The rest of this little meeting resulted in them simply reading their books. As expected all three once they were started on reading were quite focused. All conversations appeared to end there, but it was a comfortable atmosphere as soon as everyone settled into it, minding their own business in the presence of friends. That was a strange way to put it, but that was very much what it was. As soon as it was time they needed to go, either the store was closing or they had other duties to attend, they eventually separated for the day.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Abandoned Warehouse<br/>22/7/2015 - Wednesday</div></div><br/><br/>Two days into summer break and Rui was mostly spending his days playing games or looking into new activities, turns out Warakuma was good for hiking and fishing, so maybe do that at some point. There weren't many 'famous' sites like when he was in the city, like various districts or locations, so the idea of having to find nice places yourself was while tiring, was a bit of an adventure.<br/><br/>Still, today he and everyone else was called to the abandoned warehouse. It seemed urgent according to the text from Kazuki and Megumi. It was strange seeing everyone not in uniforms, for some reason they wore their school uniforms even when they went into the dungeons on Sunday.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;Unlocked Summer Casual Costume</span><br/><br/>Regardless, everyone was here, including Zeke, and Megumi was going to be explaining why they were here today.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""So... Yesterday I sensed a new area, I don't know where it is, but I thought I should let everyone know... Today hopefully we can try and find it. I'm not sure what's waiting there, but according to Kami's investigation, he says it's likely where the cult leader is, if not, beyond this area""</font>, she stated.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""I came around quickly yesterday too to check, but I'm having the same problem.

Do we have a plan to find it?""</font>, <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""At present we do not, which is why everyone is gathered here today to gain information""</font>, Kazuki chimed in. As soon as that was said, Zeke squawked, getting everyone's attention before flying into the mirror. It was the first time they'd seen the bird enter the mirror, so it was a strange experience, but it seems Zeke wanted them to follow it.<br/><br/><font color=""orange"">""The damn bird seems to have an idea...""</font>, Riku rarely talked and just usually snarled in the side behind Kazuki, but he seemed interested in the bird.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I...

As soon as everyone had stepped through, Zeke made a shrill cry before flying on ahead.<br/><br/>Following the bird for awhile they eventually turned the corner... A beach? <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/AoohRf6.jpg"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">An eerie green beach</a> with gray ashen sand, but what stood out most was the giant torii, and the rippling vertical surface in front of them.

The view from here was quite breathtaking.

At least, that's what Kotori took from it, given that she knew little of her fellow Agriculture Club member's exact involvement with Star Drop Café. Kotori still glanced between the others at the table when silence fell upon them once more for a few seconds more to see if anyone would speak up - but when no one did, she let out an inaudible sigh before turning her gaze back on the book before her; even as she felt her guilty conscience creep up once more when she took a sip from the unbidden but not unwelcome glass of water. It didn't take long for this to vanish though when the book's story received her full attention.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehouse | Wednesday, July 22 2015</span><br/><br/>Having spent most of the morning helping her mother around the family flower shop, Kotori had headed to her room to make some more headway on the summer homework. She'd already begun therewith after she'd returned home from her unexpected visit to Yoshida's and was feeling somewhat optimistic that it shouldn't take too much longer to get everything finished up and thus not have to worry about it for the rest of the break. Unfortunately, however, she hadn't even started when she almost jumped out of her seat at the sudden ring of her cellphone. Not a prolific user thereof, she was still surprised whenever she got a message - and given the usual contents thereof, she didn't look forward to seeing who it might be from.<br/><br/>Her fears were proven well founded when saw that it was once more a call to gather up at the warehouse - new developments needed discussing and another expedition into the mirror realm was very likely. Whilst it didn't mention any kidnappings, Kotori couldn't help but feel her worries and fears return anew as got ready to head down the by now worryingly familiar way to the warehouse.<br/><br/>She was neither the first nor the last to arrive, though they didn't have to wait too long. Whilst some had to excuse themselves for various reasons, there were more than enough people present to field a full team or two - but that did little to lift Kotori's spirits when Kazuki and Megumi began to explain the situation. Ayano supported Megumi's findings that an unknown area had been located and that, according to Kaminari's investigations, they might finally be on track to finding this cult's leader. However, the fact that no one was in need of rescuing did at least serve to lighten Kotori's mood, if only a little.<br/><br/>Almost immediately thereafter, a squawk drew everyone's eyes to Zeke. The bird spread its wings and lifted off, wasting no time to push off into the mirror - not exactly an everyday sight when seeing the others passing through was still an uncanny experience. Still, Zeke had proven to be a great help before, so there was little reason to doubt that it was doing this without some purpose - agreement was quickly reached on this before the rest of the investigation team followed suit. As ever, Kotori held her breath in apprehension as she stepped through the mirror; only releasing it on the other side when the surreal feeling that always followed had passed.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Mirror World: Seto | Wednesday</span><br/><br/>Zeke lead the group onwards, always flying ahead before perching just within view and waiting for them to catch up. The bird seemed to know exactly where it wanted them to go and, for a lack of any other directions, they were quick to follow. The path they travelled on took them through the many streets of this mirror image of Warakuma; the buildings on either side always seeming just a little bit off as they skirted the verge of mundanely familiar and utterly bizarre - at least until they turned on corner and suddenly found that they'd just stepped off the concrete pavement and onto similarly ashen sand. An unearthly green glow washed over the entire scenery - but Kotori was hard-pressed to say if this came from the light in the sky - whether it was a moon or a sun, she couldn't tell - or the depths of the vast sea before them, flanked all around by tall mountains far off in the distance.<br/><br/>Yet what caught most everyone's attention was the only colour that broke the gloomy scenery in the form of an enormous torii that seemed to stand as a gate between the grey sands they stood upon and the green waters that lay beyond. The fact that Zeke had chosen it as his final perching place only served to further everyone's suspicions that what they were looking on was not just another minor quirk of this mirror realm; the strange ripple in reality - for what it was worth here - immediately bringing a portal into yet stranger worlds to mind.<br/><br/>The sight brought about much muttering among those gathered - but it wasn't until Megumi suddenly spoke up in surprise at sensing another presence that everyone could tear their eyes away from this most strange scenery. Even after delving into several dungeons and experiencing their blatant violation of common sense first hand, Kotori just could not get used to the oddities that made up the mirror world - but she did her best to try to quell the unending stream of questions that sprang forth at every sight that presented itself to her as she gave a slow nod to Kaminari's words.<br/><br/>But even if she agreed with the notion that they had to get to the bottom of this, Kotori could not help but feel a sense of unease at this newest turn of events and most blatant transgression against reality as they knew it to date.</div>"

He hadn't really realized just how tired he had been from everything. The Mirror World and the cult, Mako and the others, school. It was nice to just relax for a while, even if thoughts of the Mirror World pervaded his every-day thoughts. Yet, he hadn't talked to Rokurou or Mako since exam week, and he felt a little bit of guilt over it... Had they thought about him since the last time they'd met? Well, they hadn't texted yet or anything, so maybe they were recharging the same way Sato was or something.<br/><br/>	Well, nobody outside of the Investigation Team was relaxing quite like Sato, who was waiting around in abandoned warehouse for the other members to arrive. He was out in town already, about to do some shopping for dinner, and he had made a B-line for the warehouse as soon as he got the text. He had shirked both responsibility and the unpaid items in the grocery aisle of the superstore, but hopefully they'd understand. After all, the Mirror World excursions usually were live or death. Even if jeans and a white t-shirt didn't exactly scream serious.<br/><br/>	Soon enough, though, everyone who was gonna come arrived and the group huddled up in the center of the room. Sato stayed leaning against the wall, though, as he was an edgy prick.<br/><br/>	After briefly discussing the fact that that a new area had appeared in the Mirror World and how nobody knew how to get into it, the weird bird they were harboring suddenly freaked out and flown directly into the mirror. It was a surreal experience. They walked through the glass all the time, but to see a hawk do it... Sato had gotten so used to just entering the Mirror World like that, that it made his mind wandered a bit. They'd proven they could use <span class=""bb-i"">any</span> mirror to enter, and that it was dangerous to not use one that lead to somewhere relatively safe, but what would happen if he just jumped through the mirror in his bathroom? Where would it lead, and could he get out easily? Questions, questions. Regardless, the group quickly realized they had no other lead than to follow the mysterious persona bird, so everyone entered the Mirror World as well without delay.<br/><br/>	The group followed Zeke (who had named it, again?) down the corrupted Warakuma roads until cutting a corner revealed to be what looked like a sickly green sea, and, apart from the sand they now stood upon, only an ominous torii that Zeke now perched upon. The only thing they knew about it was that it was named Seto and that, as revealed by Megumi, someone was in there... Under the water? Sato shook his head, it obviously wasn't water. Whatever was under the surface, though, wasn't going to be too different from what they've known thus far. Another person, another dungeon... Was he really that used to the Mirror World now? How many times have they saved someone's life with some big bombastic battle? Something in his head reminded him that whatever was going on wasn't quite normal, and the realization instilled that old feeling of anxiety in him. He hadn't quite felt the same queasiness since he first went into the Mirror World after getting his Persona, but hopefully it was unfounded worry.<br/><br/>	Kami cut through the mumbling of the group through with the order to group up and prepare for the upcoming dungeon, a notion Sato found comforting. There was nothing to gain from conjecture outside of Seto, so Sato wasted no time in making sure he had all his equipment and confirming with Rui who was going with who.<br/><br/>	""I'm ready to go whenever everyone else is,"" Sato said once finished with preparations, trying his hardest to project an aura of confidence.

Akane spend her days like usual, drawing and reading countless amounts of manga and watching what she could while doing both. After all, an artist must always find many different resources to draw inspiration from. Today is another such day, of course, but as per usual, these little 'trips' to the mirror world have been a chance for her to unwind and relax. After all, drawing all the time and cutting yourself off from human contact or odd amounts of time, would tend to draw one crazy.<br/><br/>Nothing like pummeling mobs and beating down bosses, it's quite fun. It started out solely for saving others but over the course of these trips, gradually, she stopped caring and it's been more about who to pummel and how many times. Anyways, they find themselves here today because they sensed a new area. So in short, it's an information gathering trip, hearing that, Akane's face showed a bit disappointment. With how they've always been coming in aiming to save someone, a fight was guaranteed to happen but today it's a bit different.<br/><br/>Though she hoped something would happen, she kept her thoughts to herself while they were discussing the plan.  Soon afterword, the bird started squawking and flew into the mirror, naturally, everyone decided to follow it. Going through the mirror, they found Zeke perched above the arch of a giant torii. The surroundings were grotesque as usual, but still quite the view. Akane's mood picked up when Megumi immediately sensed something, no, sensed <span class=""bb-i"">someone</span>.

The composition was Rui, Katsuro, Kotori, and Akane, while Kami would bring along Shizuka, Jun, and Sato.

""Is this an Isekai; am I in a fantasy world, or about to end up in one?"" <br/><br/>He listened to the sounds of the beach, and the rippling portal. The boy wished he had his Chinese Monk spade, but there was no justification to bring it to a public place. Looking around, and not seeing any means of going back to the 'normal' world, Samuru took out the Monk Spade from its leather package slowly and calmly, his dark eyes gazing at the 'temple gate' as though it was challenging him somehow. Then, he would walk through the portal, passing through into what can be charitably described as a wide, circular chamber.<br/><br/>This chamber was dotted with statues of the Virgin Mary that looked like Kannon, crosses hidden behind mirrors and Buddhist symbols, and, from an unseen source, echoing mantras of Latin words converted to Japanese pronounciation. This place was tailored to his psyche, it seemed, as the walls were painted with the sufferings of Japanese martyrs who had died for his faith, while the ceiling was decorated with pictures of hellfire and brimstone, where naked men and women were tormented by also naked devils, all with lithe, well-built bodies that made Samuru uncomfortable. <br/><br/>There was no comfort in the sounds and sights of the room. Samuru knew, or rather, thought, that damnation had come for him.<br/><br/>""Are you terrified, Samuru?"" a voice spoke, the tone just like the eighteen-year old's own, but with a ringing, eerie quality in it. ""A shame to your family, a traitor to your faith, one whose attempts at reconciling religion and <span class=""bb-i"">personal happiness</span> are patethic and scriptually unsound."" Each word hurt, each word stung.<br/><br/>""Don't you wish you can shrink down and cower in fear, Samuru Amakusa?"" the other self laughed, the echoes reverbrating all across the chamber. ""Or even worse, lash out in anger at the faith that doomed you to this life of pain and suffering?!"" A grin at that, before the upper clothing of 'Samuru Two' burnt away in a flash of yellow fire, revealing an upper body covered with wounds and scars.<br/><br/>""You like men, men as well as women!"" the Second Samuru laughed and gloated. ""You think it's all right because you can have 'hetero relations', and do what is right and proper, while, deep in your heart, fantasizing about other guys, guys like me!""<br/><br/>""That - that's not true!"" Samuru tried to find the words needed to refuse the harsh words coming from his copy's mouth. But the laughter and mockery from the other self just increased, before the insults and demeaning rhetoric continued.<br/><br/>""You hate yourself for feeling this way. You hate yourself for thinking, no, knowing, that your happiness is with another man, more than it is with a woman! You hate the part of you that you think is utterly perverted, you hate the people who preach at you and make you feel bad about yourself, and you hate the <span class=""bb-i"">God</span> who has proclaimed a law that is against what you think is good!""<br/><br/>""Stop!"" Samuru said, ""there can't be good without God! God provides the promise of absolute good!""<br/><br/>""Then why do you suffer, just for something you are born with?!"" the other self said. ""Why does <span class=""bb-i"">authority</span> say you are perverse, because of something that harms no one unless it is repressed?!""<br/><br/>""Authority is right!"" Samuru shouted.<br/><br/>""You don't believe that!"" the other self now had an aura of power about him, and the air reverbrated with energy. ""You are afraid that you don't actually believe in anything! You fear that you lack a foundation for your life!""<br/><br/>""SHUT UP! You're not me!""

Sato was paired with Kami, Jun, and Shizuka, a fact he wasn't too sure about. He didn't remember working with them much before, and Jun was completely new, so Sato decided he'd proceed with extra caution than usual. The whole of Seto was different from what they usually dealt with as well, so it was... mysterious, to say the least.<br/><br/>	There wasn't really anywhere to go, as far as Sato could see, so the party took cautious steps forward. While it had looked like water, putting his foot in it instead revealed a staircase that lead down below the water. It was hard to see where they were going with the ominous glow and translucency of the veil they descended through, but the broad steps brought them through to a wooded road soon enough. The light filtering down from the surface ominously flickered and flowed across the ground, and the air was hard to breath. It would feel like drowning, if it wasn't for how utterly serene yet out-of-place everything felt. It was more like some surreal fever dream more than anything...<br/><br/>	The presence seemed to be coming from the towering church they encountered on a fork in the road, but Sato wouldn't get the opportunity to check it out as he and the others headed off the other way while Rui's group took it on. Instead, Kami lead them down the main road, which soon started taking a more winding path through what appeared to be a rocky trail through a forest.<br/><br/>	Soon enough the group found themselves standing outside some Japanese village, another torii serving as another entrance. It was mysteriously void of any life or movement, which was in of itself unsettling, but something in Sato said that it would have been worse to have seen anything in such a weird place. Everyone seemed to agree that their only real course of action was to investigate the ghost town, and as such Kami took point again with the rest of the group trailing behind as they started searching the village for anything of note. Sato tried to peak through windows and into buildings, even working up the courage to try to open a door, but the ones he tried by the entrance torii were blocked by something on the other side. Perhaps there was some other house they needed to check... Or was there something waiting for them further in?</div>"

Rui was quick to volunteer himself as that team's leader and soon after, Kotori found herself, together with both Akane and Katsuro, elected for this purpose. Knowing how well the former two worked together in battle, Kotori was glad to be by their side - and, even under the circumstances they found themselves in, she couldn't quite help but glance nervously over to Katsuro; not because she was worried whether how he'd hold up in his first exploration of the mirror world, but rather hoping that he wouldn't bring up the topic of the exam results again.<br/><br/>Either way though, given the rather odd circumstances that surrounded this newest location, it was equally quickly agreed upon that some further exploration should be done - for which Kaminari stepped forth, soon after assembling a group consisting of himself, Sato, Jun and Shizuka. The remaining few meanwhile would stay put, both to act as backup if needed and to make sure that the coast was clear for Megumi and Ayano to keep use their navigational skills undisturbed. With the plan thus formed, the groups split up and headed towards their respective destinations. As they did, Kotori quietly wished Kaminari's group to stay safe - particularly her fellow Agriculture Club member, given how the recent events in the club had made things a little awkward as of late.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Seto: Chapel of the Martyr | Wednesday</span><br/><br/>No matter how many times she came to the mirror world or ventured into a dungeon, Kotori was still as perplexed as ever at the sheer oddity of the place. The unnatural pale green illumination of the whole area seemed to serve only to cast a surreal light and deepen shadows because of it, leaving her to glance about in fear of any shadows using this to sneak up on the group - even if their navigator did not pick up any sign of hostility around them. In such a state, Kotori followed as Rui lead the group onwards - until they reached the location of whomever Megumi had sensed a while ago.<br/><br/>As it turned out, the sight that greeted them was a church of all things. Though she didn't know what to expect, the location once more took Kotori by surprise. By now, she'd all but given up on trying to somehow map these places to their counterparts in the real Warakuma - mostly because the fractured geography of this realm just refused to make sense to her. However, they were not here to make sense of this place - at least not primarily - but instead to investigate this presence. Starting up the stairs, much like everyone else, Kotori's eyes passed over the carvings and etchings that adorned them. Not a particularly religious person herself, she did still recognise the occasional symbol - though that did little but reinforce the notion that, for whatever reason, this place seemed to be primarily christian in origin; if less the forgive and turn the other cheek sort but rather the eternal punishment kind, if the various depictions of torture were anything to go by.<br/><br/>After noticing those, Kotori tried to keep her eyes firmly on the stairs in front of her - even if the slight movement of her head betrayed her glances that would otherwise make for a rather blurry picture without the aid of her glasses. However, it was not long before they shot up to the door at the top of the stairs as a voice drew everyone's attention to the same place. It took her a moment to realise what she was listening to - and barely an instant for her cheeks to take on a tinge of red which she could only hope was being masked by the green light when a second, almost identical voice yelled about... certain preferences. Even as her fears of yet another shadow encounter rapidly rose, Kotori still felt the almost familiar unease at being an unwitting witness to someone's best kept secrets being revealed without their consent.<br/><br/>The group quickened their pace, hoping to interject before anything worse could happen - but just as they reached the top and Rui threw open the church doors, the fateful words were yelled out. Inside, they saw a uncomfortably familiar scene: two people stood apart from each other; twins in all things but their eyes - which were of an unnatural golden colour in the one facing them. The other, meanwhile, was charging at his counterpart with a weapon in hand - disregarding the sudden rush of shadows into his intended target that told them that they had truly arrived too late to prevent the shadow from gaining power through denial.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori was quick to call, knowing from experience that this was very likely not going to end without a fight. She wanted to give a warning not to attack the shadow - the danger thereof still fresh in her mind after what had happened when Jun had done the same - but the others were quicker in acting upon this; leaving her to instead cover them if the shadow decided to attack either them or its own progenitor. As such, Kotori was ready to cast a healing spell at a moment's notice as, with the help of the calming familiarity of her own persona, she pushed her worries to the back of her mind and instead focused her attention fully on what lay ahead.</div>"

He had seen it before, and thought he had come to terms with it. He was half wrong, it still stunned him as he looked around, although he was able to compose himself in front of the others. When Rui had said that they were going back in, he had very nearly told him to fuck off.<br/>A whole new world...they could learn so much from it. If only he could tell everyone about it...<br/>That would be folly, of course. People would just exploit it. He would know that better than anyone. Idiot.<br/>Katsuro shook his head, and looked around at the..church? Is that what it was? He had never been to one before, but all these strange symbols and pictures...it certainly looked like one, from what he had seen in books. What the hell was going on...<br/><br/>He was so occupied with what was going on around him, he fell behind slight and didnt hear the yelling straight away, but when he did, he almost tripped and fell, only managing to save himself at the last second.

It seemed every time she was chosen as one of the party members, it just so happened that her party was to explore the unsettling areas. Was it a coincidence?

Eventually Zeke would start circling the village and they soon found out why. As they reached what would be the village square they witnessed what looked like a pillar of mirror shards.

However as soon as Kami took even a single step, away or towards it, it began to pulse, the floating and slowly hovering mirror shards began to speed up, swirling and spiraling until it began to form something, like a puzzle, except for a statue. As everyone backed away and positioned themselves, they beheld what appears to be the spitting image of an <a href=""http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/megamitensei/images/a/a7/Oni.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20080617064210"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Oni</a>, not some strange being like a shadow, this was...

The darkness gathered around it, forming a pitch-black shell which, just moments later, was pierced by a red claw of sorts. Tearing its way out of the by now fading darkness surrounding it, the Shadow revealed itself in its transformed state - a red-skinned demon, clad in a rather odd-looking set of clothes. Horns sprouted in between its blond mane, claws formed where feet should be and from its back grew a set of leathery wings and boney arms ending in yet more wicked claws. A tail uncoiled itself out from beind the shadow, the pointed tip swishing through the air even as the Shadow's golden eyes locked onto the group.<br/><br/>Even having seen multiple such transformations up close before, Kotori still couldn't help but feel unsettled at this sight - to know that such a twisted creature seemed to lurk inside everyone served as a reminder that the same had been true of herself. But luckily, thanks to the efforts of her now fellow group members, she instead had Kikuri-Hime at her side - and together, they could help others in the same way. Rui, meanwhile, showed no such brief hesitations - instead, he was quick to order the group in between the shadow and its progenitor; leaving it little choice but to engage them if it wanted to get at its real target. As Rui and Akane took up the front line, much as usual, he gave out immediate orders - though knowing nothing of this Shadow's capabilities, there was little else to do but attempt the usual method of engagement.<br/><br/>Kotori gave a quick nod in agreement. Taking a deep breath to calm herself, she kept her eyes on the Shadow even as Rui's Askr cast a spell upon the party. She could feel herself become lighter on her feet, every movement seemingly easier than just a moment ago - this would make both evading enemy attacks and landing one's own a little bit easier. Megumi was quick to respond to the request for a scan - likely having already begun even before Rui asked this of her - whilst Akane seemed only to pleased to have an opportunity to take down yet another large Shadow in order to rescue someone from their inner demons - literally. As Katsuro's persona, Giley Corey, was more adept at magical combat than up front fighting, he too took up position behind the other two in order to take the fight to the Shadow.<br/><br/>This left Kotori to find herself once more behind Rui and Akane as they would lead the attack. With so little yet known about this Shadow, she opted to stay put for the moment; prepared to cast a healing spell at a moment's notice rather than risk springing some unknown trap by going for a first strike and calling a lightning bolt down. As such, she closely watched any move the Shadow may make - whilst also being sure to keep an eye on the other three members of the group in case they needed healing.</div>"

They knew eachother, of course-- Sato distinctly remembered the few times they'd met at the library, and they'd interacted as part of the team, but it didn't really occur to him that he was her senpai both in school and in the team. The Mirror World seemed to melt away any identity he felt in the real world, perhaps a side-effect of the surrealism of it all. Regardless, it'd be damaging to team morale to avoid her, so he tried to come up with something... comforting to say.<br/><br/>	""This is different from even what I'm used to,"" Sato said, hardly looking at Shizuka as he kept walking. ""This whole world is already bad enough, so it's only natural to feel disconcerted with something like this... You have to wonder how Rui feels about it, don't you? He was on the team from the beginning, and he's always the leader of the frontlines. It's impressive how unfazed he seems sometimes.""<br/><br/>	There wasn't enough time for either to say much more, as the group soon stumbled upon what looked like a pile of broken glass. Instead of reflecting the surroundings, though, Sato saw glimpses of country-side, which was presumably Warakuma due to the presence of a few notable landmarks of the area. The pile was the first notable thing they've found thus far however, so naturally one of the first things they did with it was try to touch it. Upon trying to approach it, though, the shards suddenly flew away in a hurricane of glass, forming a loose circle around them in the sky. They continued spinning around and increased speed as the team backed away, Sato instinctively keeping Shizuka behind him. He wasn't much of a wall for her, but he <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> a senpai. The circle of flying glass soon broke away, though, as they started converging back in the center of the town square, this time forging what looked like a glass statue. The reflection, however, turned from rural countryside and into parts of skin and flesh.  In between a single blink, the statue of glass transmogrified into what looked like an oni from folklore.<br/><br/>	""What the hell...?"" Sato muttered, drawing his bow. The creature started moving, almost immediately raising its spear for battle. Kami ordered the group into combat, and with little delay Jun and Kami were already forming the front-line with Sato and Shizuka behind them. ""This thing doesn't look like any of the shadows we've seen before. Be careful, everyone."" Sato said, notching an arrow. As he watched it from behind the fletching, it occurred to Sato how 'real' it looked. The shadows they'd been facing thus far had all been weird, well, shadows. They moved with what looked to be an unfiltered darkness and they all had the same kind of aesthetic to them, but this monster seemed to move with muscle and tendon. Yet, it came from that pile of glass... It couldn't be real. Could it?<br/><br/>	Sato let the arrow fly. It lodged itself into  the oni's left arm, but it acted as if nothing had even happened. It was clearly stronger than it looked, so Sato quickly summoned Chronos. For all intents and purposes, it was just another shadow for now. With only its spear and nothing else shown, it seemed to be physically powerful. Even a glancing blow would probably hurt bad, so maybe it'd be best to avoid using brute force to win. Though, if they could use its own strength against it...<br/><br/>	""<span class=""bb-b"">Tetrakarn!</span>"" Sato called, and Chronos started to spin its scythe in front of it for a moment, a blue haze forming around them both. Suddenly, a translucent barrier in front of Kami appeared, rigged to explode if the Oni would try to hit him. ""We have you covered, Kami! Hit it hard!"" Sato felt the drain of using his new-found ability immediately, but he shook it off like nothing. With out delay, Sato immediately prepared to start throwing out Garudynes at it. The range of Sato's attacks was definitely the best asset he had at the moment.</div>"

Giving an occasional nod to show that she was listening, she pondered on what Sato had said about their team leader, Rui. Despite how everything about the Mirror World and the cult kidnappings felt unreal and right out of a fictional fantasy game, he seemed... too calm about it all. The younger student was snapped back into reality without taking a moment to reply when their current party leader spoke not too far off from where the two were.<br/><br/>As if approaching the glass shard triggered some kind of trap, it transformed into a Japanese mythical creature, oni. Shizuka's hidden eyes blinked, then blinked once more to see if she were seeing things. This might have been her second trip as part of the investigation group but if she recalled the last time, were there solid (?) hostilities like this one? She figured if things like personas were not merely a work of fiction, why not youkais or the like too. Whether it be a black shadowy blob or a threatening ogre, the oni seemed to be hostile so the group went into battle stances. The maiden just realized the upperclassman standing before her in a defensive manner as she felt a slight sense of security.<br/><br/>Feeling a little more confident with another by her side, she responded to Kami's order by bringing forth Inari with a swish of her magical girl staff onto the glowing Temperance card. <font color=""violet"">""Inari!

It has only been a few days since Katsuro's little outburst over the exam results and already him and Kotori have been placed on the same team. Well, honestly, that in itself isn't the issue. It's more along the lines of whether they'll be able to work together or not. Not like it matters, as long there's something for her to hit and Rui's leading the way, so things will be alright.<br/><br/>After some walking the group reached another one of Akane's least favorite places, a church. Just like any other place in this world, it wasn't exactly normal, with the 'abnormal' part being the depictions of some kind of religious punishment all over the church's stained class. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Religion at it's finest, huh?""</span></font> she muttered to herself with a cheap laugh. To her, Religion was just a load of shit. The world's oldest and longest running scam and profession next to prostitution. Religious fanatics are definitely on the top of her 'punch on sight' list.<br/><br/>Soon enough they found a set of stairs and climbed to the next area where they heard voices talking. Sure enough, it was their target and yet another 'shadow moment'. When they arrived, they were treated to the sight of the said target trying to pummel his shadow. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""He sure flew, didn't he?""</span></font> she looked on, trying to stifle a laugh at his failed attempt to hit the shadow. Once Rui gave out the usual order, she summoned persona. Like she has in many other battles, she called forth a Kill rush at the target. Ignoring the words of the target, she raised her Katana and charged in herself.<br/><br/>With a smile radiating bloodlust.....<font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-i"">Well, let's see what this one has.</span></font></div>"

Even with resistances, the force of the blow still meant they were forced to back away. The Oni didn't waste it's opportunity to charge the two bracing, although Kami managed to speed out of the way, Jun braced the attack, however upon closer inspection, thanks to Marakukaja, she was easily able to brush it off.<br/><br/>Although Jun wasn't the only one to brush it off.

Kotori was glad for that - she wouldn't have looked forward to trying to keep an eye on yet another possible target for the rearing shadow. Akane meanwhile merely let out a hollow laugh at the whole scene, not perturbed in the slightest - in fact, she even seemed to have look forward to it as she charged together with Rui, their personas forming behind them to aid in the attack.<br/><br/>With a scan still oustanding, Kotori kept a close eye on the two as the Shadow began to swing at them; sending deep red blades slicing through the air towards its attackers. However, her worries seemed unfounded at the two had enough experience to see such an attack coming, leaving Rui to go for a counter-attack whilst Akane was free to charge in under his cover. Katsuro meanwhile had an easy time striking the distracted Shadow with an enormous lightning bolt that roared down with a deafening thunderclap. To Kotori's relief, however, none of the attacks seemed to cause any unforeseen consequences - for the moment at least.<br/><br/>Just a moment later, Megumi announced that the scans had been completed - and immediately warned them of the Shadow's arms. It seemed that they were the key to its attacks; always preceding a strike of either physical or magical nature. Knowing what to look out for would hopefully mean that they'd be easily able to avoid any attacks - only for the shadow to give a condescending chuckle as if to taunt that very thought. The next moment, a loud crack echoed throughout the chapel as its leathery wings stretched and flapped, a gust of wind blowing across the area as it lifted itself airborne and thus out of reach for any would-be attackers at close range.<br/><br/>However, their troubles did not end there. Immediately after, the Shadow begun to swing its arms wildly - which caused a rain of magical projectiles to fall toward the group on the ground. Some left a fiery trail, others glowed with an unsettling light from within - but all exploded when the hit the chapel floor and gave everyone all the more reason to dogde the incoming attacks. Kotori, more used to being covered from attack by the front line - and ever thankful for it - suddenly found herself coming under direct attack as well and was only barely able to avoid being hit in the initial attack.<br/><br/>It was a rather stressful experience to have to divide her attention between the inbound magical attacks and the status of her fellow group members - but luckily, they seemed to have been more alert to the Shadow's moves and did not seem to be in immediate need of healing. As such, there was little else left for Kotori but to aid in the offense - whilst also hoping that perhaps they might be able to interrupt its magical barrage in doing so. <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> she called, keeping the shadow fixed in her sight behind her glasses to be ready for any magical projectiles being cast her way, <font color=""green"">""Zionga.""</font><br/><br/>Another, albeit smaller, bolt of lightning crashed into the flying Shadow. This would grant the others an opening they could use for heavier attacks that in turn might just be able to force it back onto the ground - or at least, that's what Kotori hoped in between quick breaths as the by now almost familiar fatigue once more started to make itself known.</div>"

However, the Oni quickly countered this by whipping out an even stronger attack, breaking through their forces through sheer force. Their defense buffs mitigated a lot of the damage from the blow, but its strength was unparalleled. Well, Sato assumed. He was pretty much safe a little ways behind Kami and Jun, but relative safety wouldn't last when the frontliners couldn't even manage to scratch the thing. While the mage he and Shizuka were throwing out seemed to work, physical attacks seemed to do next to nothing. If there was nothing they could but effectively tickle it with their weapons, magic was the obvious choice.<br/><br/>	Kami commanded Jun to stop trying to slap it. Sato merely nodded at the statement and summoned his persona again, casting a Hamaon on the Oni.

Seeing as their tactic of using physical brute force was not enough to give enough damage to their target, Kami, their current party leader, decided it was wise to go about it differently.

This was the opening they needed... It was time to go all-out.<br/><br/>	While the others might have rushed in, Sato stayed back and launched an arrow into the sky above the oni. Chronos appeared above the oni as well, though, and smashed the end of its scythe into the arrow mid-flight. As a result, a powerful Rainy Death poured down onto the oni, a hail of arrows ripping through its flesh. Combined with the force of everyone elses' attacks, a powerful storm of debris whipped up around them, obscuring everyone in it.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Dooooooooom</span></div><br/>	Everyone jumped back after completing the all-out attack, waiting to see what was next. Though he can't say he was surprised, Sato winced as he watched the oni rise up off its knees from the cloud of dust with a fierce look of revenge. While he had been sure his shots were hitting flesh, Sato noticed the unmistakable appearance of cracked glass running along the oni's body. Was it just an illusion...? The power it had was anything but, yet the oni seemed to lack any kind of reality... Regardless, it wasn't the time to contemplate that kind of thing yet, seeing as the battle wasn't even over yet.<br/><br/>	The oni didn't waste much time before starting to charge at them again, but the team was more scattered this time due to the chaos of the all-out attack, leaving Sato and Shizuka open to the oni's path of destruction. Panicking, Sato instinctively dodged backwards, though the unplanned momentum carried him awkwardly and he found himself tumbling head-first. Fortunately, though, he managed to throw his hands behind him, caught himself, and flipped backwards. Even with a bit of a stumbled landing on his feet, it was sick as hell.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""Damn, that was cool...""</span> Sato muttered to himself, before realizing that he'd left Shizuka completely alone in the direct path of the oni...

As such, Akane's scowl was evidently not one of pain but rather annoyance due to the flying nature of the Shadow. Still, she wasn't entirely helpless - instead, Setanta, her persona, infused everyone in the group with strengthening magics. Kotori was thankful for the aid, even as she called out for a lightning strike by Kikuri-Hime - which, no small thanks to the improved power, managed to briefly jar the flying Shadow; just long enough for Katsuro to follow up with a yet stronger spell of the same element. This in turn gave Rui enough of an opening to easily blast it out of the sky with wind magic.<br/><br/>With a loud thud the Shadow came crashing down - but it was only momentarily stunned by this turn of events. Nearly immediately, its skeletal arms lashed out at the air around it whilst it recovered from the grounding. It was once more in range for melee attacks and would likely be an easy target - as long as they avoided getting struck in retaliation. As Kotori looked over the other three to make sure that they were yet unharmed, a brief hope spread in her that perhaps they might just be able to finish this quickly as Rui called for everyone to attack with all they had.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori called, the feeling the magical fortification that had been placed upon her thanks to Akane keenly as she fixed her eyes on the grounded Shadow. <font color=""green"">""Zionga""</font> With no delay, thunder echoed through the chapel as a lightning bolt struck the Shadow - aiding in the assault and, hopefully, making just enough of a distraction for Rui and Akane to safely bypass the bone claws scything the air between them as they drew near.

Still, between their direct attacks and Katsuro's magical follow-up blast, the Shadow recoiled and was knocked off-balance; only coming to a stop a few paces away. Judging by the juddering of its wings, the Shadow seemed to be nearing defeat - a thought that only became more concrete when it seemed to have an awfully hard time getting itself airborne. The Shadow seemed to realise much the same - and immediately began to cast a myriad of spells toward the party; seemingly aiming for saturation over precision. Still, it did mean that getting close would be even more of a pain - but Rui nonetheless decided that they shouldn't wait to see if they could down it once more.<br/><br/>Calling on everyone to finish the fight, Rui would take on the Shadow from different directions with Akane whilst Katsuro would lend a magical bombardement to the best of his abilities. Given that they would be going for all-out offence, this left Kotori somewhat worried - even if she quickly nodded in agreement to healing everyone, she still hoped that they get through this unscathed or, failing that, at least without too much pain. Still, with no voices of dissent, the course was decided and the group sprang into action. Dodging the magical attacks of the Shadow to the best of their ability, Akane and Rui dashed forth whilst Katsuro and Kotori were left behind; afforded the luxury of a few additional moments to anticipate any incoming spells as they prepared their own.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> Kotori called once more, keeping her attention split between both the group and the Shadow's attacks; awaiting the most opportune moment to draw upon her Persona's power to cast a healing spell.

As Akane and Rui pressed on through the barrage of spells, Kotori spoke a single word: <font color=""green"">""Salvation.""</font><br/><br/>In that instant, the darkness about the chapel faded as warmth spread all throughout. In an almost soothing embrace, the softly shining light emanating from within Kotori's Persona enveloped Akane, Rui and Katsuro alike. In a single heartbeat, wounds closed. In the blink of an eye, all pain passed from them. In a but a breath, their vigour returned. No fatigue ailed them, no blemish was to be found as Kotori's spell erased all traces of battle they may have sustained; leaving them at peak condition to deliver the final blow to Shadow that was frantically trying to propel itself upward - but to no avail at both spell and blade came crashing down upon it.<br/><br/>Kotori meanwhile, felt the effects of her own spell just as keenly - though so too did she suffer the effects of its casting; a fatigue more mental than physical as she felt the increased healing power coming at a no less increased drain. Not having expected quite as much, she needed a moment to adjust - but caught her breath just a moment later; her eyes quickly snapping up to peer through her glasses at the outcome of the attack - and hoping not to find the Shadow still putting up a fight.</div>"

Now, there was good news and bad news.<br/><br/>	The good news was that Sato had previously put up a Tetrakarn on the entire party, and because they'd been standing in the back, Shizuka still had the shield on her.

The bad news, however, was that the Oni resisted the power of its own physical attack and was barely staggered. Sato's heart sank as he watched the Oni take another swing in seconds, again leaving no time for Shizuka to get out of the way. Like a golfer, the Oni reared up, swinging the spear behind its head before sending her flying away, utterly obliterated by the blow. She skidded to a stop a good twenty meters away, Sato guessed. Was she... dead?<br/><br/>	Regardless, they couldn't do anything about her until after they finally finished off the Oni. Fortunately, in the time it took for it to take out Shizu, it was left wide open and the rest of the team managed to surround it again. There was nothing left do besides destroy it with one last round of magical destruction. Summoning Chronos again, Sato quickly unleashed a powerful blast of Garudyne.</div>"

Relief washed over her as she saw the Shadow reeling from a direct strike to the chest from Akane - but more importantly, both she and Rui were unharmed after Kotori's healing magic had done its work. Yet just a moment her eyes widened when the reeling Shadow surged forth with desperate ferocity and brought all four of its clawed hands forth to grab Akane - but Kotori's fears subsided just as quickly when Rui and his persona, Askr, broke the Shadow's grasp with clean cuts along all four arms. Recoiling from this unrelenting assault, Rui saw the opportunity they had been waiting for and called for a final attack into the opening that he'd just created.<br/><br/>Knowing what was coming all too well, used the Shadow's body as a spring to catapult herself away from it - though not without taking the opportunity to inflict a last blow to repay the Shadow's attempt at imprisoning her in its hands. Just a moment later, the shadows within the chapel, having crept back into every dark crevice as Kotori's healing spell ended, were once more cast away by a stark light - this by a double lightning strike as Kotori called upon Kikuri-Hime to keep the weakened Shadow in place for just a moment longer in order for Katsuro to finally finish it off with his more powerful offensive magic.<br/><br/>This time, however, the shadows remained banished. The unnatural darkness receded as the Shadow began to lose the power to sustain itself, flaking away in wisps of black smoke that dissipated within moments. Before long, the entire form had collapsed - and revealed the golden-eyed double of the boy that was still behind the group standing where the Shadow lay just seconds prior. With the immediate threat vanquished, Kotori could finally catch her breath - albeit not without a worrying glance in the boy's direction as he strode forth to meet his other self; her to date unrealised fear of what might happen should someone refuse themselves a second time springing forth once more.<br/><br/>However, his first words were quick to settle this fear. He made no attempt at denying his other self - instead, he wholly agreed with what his mirror image had said. Though Kotori still felt a slight unease at having been made privy to another's private struggles yet again, a small smile still found its way to her lips - much like everyone present, she'd gone through much the same process and, ultimately, had found some peace of mind therein. And judging by the way the boy was whole-heartedly embracing the feelings he'd been keeping hidden from himself, this seemed to do him no less good.<br/><br/>Seeing its purpose fulfilled, there was nothing left for the golden-eyed boy to smile - even as, much like his shadowy form before, he too began to vanish from sight. However, rather than turning into black smoke, he instead seemed to become a soft blue light, slowly rising and gathering above the boy as a familiar card descended into his hand. And as he drew upon this new-found power within himself, the blue glow above him grew in intensity - though never becoming painful to the eye - before revealing a new form, clad in long robes of red and white; reflecting the boy's restored faith in its appearance before fading from view as he turned to face the group that had come to his aid and addressing Rui.<br/><br/>Knowing what happened after she had gained her persona and seeing it mirrored many times since, concern clouded Kotori's expression as she glanced between Rui and the boy speaking to him - the fatigue easily being enough to overwhelm almost anyone in a matter of moments. Still, as Rui gave a brief explanation - seemingly waiting for much the same - Kotori had managed to rest up enough to turn her thoughts to the other group, hoping that the four of them - Kaminari, Shizuka, Sato and Jun - had managed to get through whatever challenges they'd faced unharmed.<br/><br/>It took her just a moment before she shook her head at that thought - after all, besides Jun, they were all undoubtedly experienced enough to make short work of anything in their way.</div>"

Even the table they sat at had a blue hue to it. Inscribed in front of them was a number in Roman Numerals, representing their Arcana, and their seating seemed to be assigned in a related fashion along the long table.<br/><br/>The next thing they'd notice is that their clothes were different. Samuru found himself in a blue suit by how it felt, but it was not immediately recognizable as he wore a matching blue shoulder cape over it, it reminded him a little of priests, although this may be fitting all things considered. Fubuki found herself in a long dress with side cuts, and thigh high high heeled boots, as well as long dark blue gloves. There was a mysterious and sexy vibe to the entire outfit, almost a reminder of a particular character in a video game. Regardless, their attention would immediately be drawn to the very end of the table,<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Welcome, to the Velvet Room""</font>, he began. The long nose and wide, glaring eyes were a unnerving combination.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a room that exists between dream and reality, mind, and matter.

Even at the very end, a bird sat perched upon a stand, some would recognize it as Zeke, the hawk sparrow that had been helping the party.

The reason for it was not boredom at the subject matter - she didn't mind finishing her summer holiday - but rather the fact that she hadn't really slept too well the night before. That in turn wasn't too surprising at this point, considering that the excitement - at least once everyone was back safe and sound - made for a rather terrible sleeping aid, leaving her to stay awake for hours on end on such days in the past. This time, however, Kotori's excitement had been tainted by guilt - even after she'd been reassured multiple times, Kotori couldn't help but worry about Shizuka who, as she'd found once when she'd returned, apparently suffered heavy attacks in this Seto place. Even knowing that she'd at least aided somewhat in the rescue of Samuru, Kotori still felt like she might have been able to prevent those events from transpiring - but either way, it didn't make for a good night's sleep.<br/><br/>With a sigh, Kotori put her pencil down and looked up from her books, stretching her arms upwards - only now noticing the slight ache that came with writing continuously for quite some time - before bringing them back to rub her eyes behind her glasses; the tiredness never quite having left them ever since she got up that morning. When she opened them again, however...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Velvet Room | Thursday</span><br/><br/>...Kotori found herself sitting at quite a different table indeed. Even though she knew she should be surprised at this inexplicable turn of events, Kotori felt oddly calm as she looked about the room. She recognised it immediately - even though it had been more than a month and a half - as the same place she'd awakened at following her kidnapping and subsequent awakening of her persona, Kikuri-Hime. This time, however, the room looked quite different. Where before it had held a dark and mysterious atmosphere, it was now revealed to be a splendid dining hall. In this new light, she could see the hall decorated in many complimenting shades of blue, highlighted by interwoven patterns in gold. As her eyes wandered back down toward the table, she found that all the other seats - one of them replaced by a perch for a bird to perch upon - were now occupied. Tut this time, not by shadowy silhouettes.<br/><br/>Instead, Kotori found herself at the table with everyone else who'd gotten involved with the mirror realm. However, instead than their school uniforms or even their casual clothes, they all were wearing rather more formal and fancy attire. It was only when she looked down that Kotori realised that this applied to herself too. Lifting her arms, she saw them clad in dark blue fingerless elbow gloves. Following the lines of her arms, she further found herself wearing a similarly blue jacket which ended in a long skirt of many large frills, alternating between blue and a pale yellow-gold colour. Where one colour was predominant, the other served as a decorative highlight. This too was true of the heeled shoes she found herself wearing, much in keeping with the rest of her clothes. Additionally, a large ribbon of the same pale golden yellow adorned the small of her back - whilst the same colour drew her attention upwards to a blue flower set in her long black hair, decorated further with another ribbon tied to it. Of course, given that she could clearly recognise all these things and the others sat at the table clearly told her that she was still wearing her glasses.<br/><br/>Rather than confusion or outright embarrassment at clad in such a fashionable outfit, Kotori merely felt a mild surprise - though that did not last for very long before a familiar voice spoke up. Drawing all eyes unto himself with his words, the strange man with his distinctly long nose and large eyes seemed quite pleased to finally have gathered everyone at the table. Henrietta, his assistant, remained impassive at his side as Igor addressed them all with his next words:<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue""><div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center"">""Welcome, to the Velvet Room""</div></div></font><br/><br/>Kotori in return gave a polite bow as best she could whilst still seated. Though she still did really understand exactly what was going on, she couldn't help but feel like most questions would be answered very soon indeed and as such remained silent.</div>"

With its strength faded, each repeated blow of magic sent a dust of glass flying, ripping away parts of its body like parts of a figurine. Before they could go in for another all-out-attack, though, the Oni evaporated into a mist of glass dust that flew away in the breeze. A flash of glass reflection revealed a quick image of a smiling couple, but it was far too glimpse and it didn't seem to stir any kind of memory within Sato, so he opted to ignore it for the time being.<br/><br/>	Suddenly, presumably because they had defeated the shadow, the oppressive air of the village seemed to lift. Sato smiled to himself as he breathed in the fresher-seeming air. It felt a lot more like the real world, which was quite a relief when coupled with the fact that Megumi shared of how the area seemed to be completely absent of shadows now. The group decided that they were pretty much done after dealing with that mess, and opted to head back out and rendezvous with Rui's group-- they had little doubt their team had overcame whatever challenges they had met. Sato walked over to Shizuka's side after, offering her his help if she wasn't feel well enough to walk all the way back out. She had taken quite the hit, after all.<br/><br/>	Outside, back at the warehouse, the group waited for a few minutes before Rui's group emerged as well, revealing that they had managed to save another victim from the Mirror World. Kami offered to carry them over to the hospital, but with that they had nothing else to do or discuss, leading to a quick disbanding of the group. It was already getting late, so Sato decided he should head home, but not without walking Mako home first. They went down the streets a little slower than usual, and when the time came for Sato to part ways, the moment to take those parting steps felt like an hour.<br/><br/>	Once home, Sato decided to try to study for a bit, but the fatigue of their Mirror World weighed on him heavily. It felt like a drug was slowly pulling away from the world of consciousness, so for the sake of his back, Sato slinked away from his desk and fell into his bed. Though his body seemed to melt away into sleep, his consciousness felt like it was still alive, something beckoning his mind...<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><span class=""bb-b"">JULY 22TH 2015, THURSDAY<br/>Middle of the Night</span><br/>	Sato's senses slowly came back to him, gradually becoming aware of his surroundings. Once the black faded from his vision, Sato looked around, quickly realizing that he had found himself in the Velvet Room once again. Sato found himself getting frustrated with the familiar murkiness and droning music that characterized the place, but he tried to ignore it and realized that all of the seats had finally been filled, even if he couldn't quite make out who each of the silhouettes were. Though, just as Sato's consciousness began to fade, a clapping sound resounded throughout the room. The room suddenly lit up, the lights piercing through the fog that had previously obscured the room. With the new-found light, Sato found himself finally able to make out everyone else in the room. His fellow guests turned out to be nobody else but every other member of the investigation team. Rui, Mako, Shizuka, Matt-- everyone was here, all corresponding to a tarot arcana, even the last couple of victims they had just saved the other night (and the hawk?). Though, for some reason, all of them were also in overly fancy outfits. Some of them were impressive, actually, but that wasn't the point.<br/><br/>	Like always, Sato's body felt disconnected from his consciousness, and he could only manage to move his head, unable to rise from his chair no matter how much he wanted to. He briefly wondered if he could try to talk to the people that sat next to him, but before he even bothered trying, he decided that it would be better to just listen to the man with the long nose.<br/><br/> <font color=""royalblue"">""Welcome,""</font> Igor said, with a deep drawl, <font color=""royalblue"">""to the Velvet Room.""</font></div>"

No such thing happened however, and she soon returned to observing the room. The first thing she noticed was the numeral, she knew it said sixteen, but she was having a hard time thinking of why she'd be asssigned this number, especially when she saw another person all the way over at... some lower number, it was too dark to read it clearly.<br/><br/>As she rested her hand on her brow instinctively, which usually helped to see further ahead as it blocked out the sun, she still found herself unable to see the number. Of course it wouldn't have worked, the problem wasn't light after all. She did notice, however, that she was wearing a long blue glove. Looking herself over, she found out she was wearing a completely blue outfit. Slightly disturbed for being in an unfamiliar room in unfamiliar clothing, Fubuki soon found her thoughts interrupted by a voice.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Welcome, to the Velvet Room""</font><br/><br/>Looking away from her outfit, towards the location the voice had come from, Fubuki saw an odd little man. His long nose and glaring eyes were slightly worrying, but before she'd given much thought to the man's appearance he started doing some introductions.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is a room that exists between dream and reality, mind, and matter. I am Igor, the host to this room, and this here is Henrietta""</font><br/><br/>...<span class=""bb-i"">Between dream and reality?</span> Fubuki pondered the words for a moment. She'd thought the man would clear things up by speaking, rather than make things even stranger as they were already. As Igor introduced Henrietta, Fubuki found herself ever so grateful, the woman was a more pleasant sight to behold than Igor himself, after all. Fubuki only paid half attention as Igor turned to tarot card readings with Samuru, still determined to figure out just what was going on here. She was once more forced to attention as Igor directly looked at her and drew another card.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""And you, the Tower. Often the Tower is the sign of forecoming doom and downfall as a result of one's own hubris, however it seems you have narrowly avoided such a fate. A fortunate turn of events wouldn't you say?""</font><br/><br/>When Igor mentioned doom and downfall, Fubuki was ready to interject, claiming she'd be fine like she always was. Before she'd uttered the words, however, Igor already went on claiming she'd already avoided this, and how that was so funrtunate. Fubuki herself however, had barely any clue what he was going on about, so she just smiled awkwardly, nodded and agreed. Next, Igor gestured to Henrietta and she gave Fubuki some sort of key.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""With these keys, you can revisit this room whenever you like... Now, normally I would dismiss you both immediately after you have received it, but now that all guests have arrived...""</font><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Fubuki Sayaka</div><div class=""bb-h3"">The Velvet Room<br/>22/7/2015, Thursday</div></div><br/>As the room brightened, Fubuki couldn't help but cover her eyes. A moment later, after her eyes had adjusted, she found that a lot more people were in the room, people, and a bird. The bird actually looked sort of cute wearing its blue outfit, though it was hard to deny it did make him look a bit silly. Looking around, Fubuki realized she didn't know most of these people. She was glad to see the young man from before, though she didn't know his name, at least she recognized him. He nodded at her, but like with so many things here, she had no clue why. Deciding to at least try to get along for now, she smiled and waved at him. She considered speaking, but the people around her were all silent, as if expecting something. Glancing over everyone, she resigned, deciding not to break the deafening silence left after Igor's words.</div>"

Due to the immense power of the shadow's magical fire, Akane, along with Rui, were shrouded from view and by the time it was able to see them again, Akane was already up close and plunging her Katana right through it's chest.<br/><br/>The shadow shrieked in rage and tried to grab her but it was much too slow as Rui and Askr made their move and cut its arms clean off. The moment Rui gave the final order, Akane grinned as she kicked off the shadow's chest and flew backwards as the others rained down a magical barrage, pummeling the shadow.

And, barring someone introducing psychotropic hallucinogens into the AC (and really, why would someone do that in Warakuma?), this was actually happening. He'd been plucked from reality... into here. And where was here? Mako took in the blues, blacks, and gold trim, then turned toward the head of the table. Yep- creepy tengu guy, and his blonde assistant.

It would appear as if the Velvet Room was now offering services to help everyone. That was definitely something he needed to check out. He got up from bed and got dressed, grabbing his knives and hiding them in discreet places all over his body. Didn't want to start the day with getting arrested for suspicious behavior. As Ryan grabbed his phone and got ready to call Rui and let him know his plans he heard his mother call for him from the kitchen. Normally she's at work by now.<br/><br/>Ryan headed downstairs to find his mother waiting for him along with breakfast. <font color=""thistle"">""Sit down Ryan, I think we need to talk.""</font> Ryan sat down and began eating as his mother composed her thoughts. <font color=""thistle"">""I understand that I haven't been around much, you understand that I've been busy with work right?

How would they eat while unconscious though...? This wasn't 'real', was it? As if to answer the question, Henrietta suggested they browse the menus that Sato noticed were in front of them. Curious, Sato opened it and skimmed through the contents. Obviously the most notable thing was the main course section. They briefly describe what sounded like a battle between the customer and some mysterious forces. All together, things on the menu seemed to just be new ways to harness the powers of their personas...<br/><br/>	Regardless of whether Sato even wanted to 'order' anything, Henrietta then informed them that they had all been called there just to announce the beginning of the services for now, and that they could apparently come back to the Velvet Room of their own accord from now on. It's then that Sato remembered the key that he had found with him when he had woken up in the hospital. It had to be the key to the Velvet Room, but, where would they even be able to use it...?<br/><br/>	Before Sato could muster up the will to ask any questions, Igor dismissed everyone and Sato's consciousness quickly faded again. The entire room seemed to melt into a blue nothingness as he felt his thoughts slipping away...<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><span class=""bb-b"">JULY 23RD 2015, THURSDAY<br/>Noon</span><br/><br/>	The summer day was sweltering, and as Sato walked into the abandoned warehouse, he couldn't help but wonder if the Mirror World would be as equally miserable. The thought begged a question: was it a 'true' mirror of the real world, or was it merely a messed up distortion that coincided with the real world? Regardless of the answer, Sato had talked to Mako about the short-lived trip into Seto the team had last night, and they soon decided to investigate it together now that there was no target to save. Sato informed the rest of the group that they were planning on going into the mirror world and that anyone else come at the specified time.<br/><br/>	As he walked into the warehouse, though, he noticed that Ryan had already arrived. ""Hey,"" Sato acknowledged him, giving a small nod. ""Are you going into the Mirror World as well today?"" He'd be a valuable asset, especially if nobody else showed. Neither he nor Mako had any means of healing themselves should something happen, so having support in the form of Ryan's Persona was very much welcome. ""Say, do you have my phone number yet? It'd probably be a good idea to exchange numbers, seeing as we're stuck relaying messages through Rui to the others.""<br/><br/>	With that, though, they had little else to do, lounged around in the warehouse for Mako and any of the others who had RSVP'd. Looking around as he waited, it occurred to him that while they had been using the warehouse as their base of operations for quite some time, they had never really done anything to it. Or even clean it up, much. He considered clearing some of it out while he was doing nothing, but the sheer scope of the task was daunting. Maybe they should organize a group cleaning day or something...</div>"

Especially if there were many more Shadows at, or above, the level of his own. It wasn't a bad idea to get more powerful, as well. Mako thought about what Igor said, that they could come and go as they pleased. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Ah... so that's what that key is for.</span></font> Mako smiled as his eyesight began to dim, as he returned to the real world. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">I'm looking forward to it...</span></font><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Mako checked his phone again as he headed toward the ""abandoned"" warehouse. Apparently, there was more to the Mirror World than just their Shadows' domains or the Velvet Room. Something called, ""Seto."" Boy, that could get confusing quickly. Ah, well. He'd find out what that all entailed when he got there. As he entered, he was somewhat taken aback by the other two people there. It wasn't entirely unprecedented- the Mirror World wasn't exactly a romantic getaway location, and going in with just the two of them would be a bad idea, but... still. It would make this next part less embarrassing. Mako entered the warehouse fully, walking over to Sato and catching him in a short, but firm hug. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Good to see you,""</font> he whispered in his ear, just before pulling away. He glanced around at the other two in the warehouse at present. It looked like Ryan, and... one of the newer investigators- he didn't think he'd met him yet.

Instead, though, was the latest addition to the team, Samuru Amakusa. Sato nodded a greeting to the younger boy, and opted to listen in on his and Ryan's conversation. Though he apparently came to clean out the warehouse, Samuru instead decided to join the team going in Seto. It was a welcome addition, seeing as Seto was still a pretty unknown place for the team. Plus, it'd be interesting to see Samuru in combat for pretty much the first time.<br/><br/>	Soon enough, though, Mako arrived, and Sato was the first to meet him by the door, but what he had expected to just be a casual greeting turned into Mako embracing him. ""Um,"" Sato muttered, unsure of the precedent being set. It wasn't that he particularly minded the contact, but it felt like the first time others had really witnessed their intimacy. Well, it shouldn't matter, seeing as being honest with themselves was kind of the whole reason they got their personas anyway. ""It's nice to see you too."" Sato replied, trying to hide a pleased smile.<br/><br/>	Sato turned to the rest of the group and nodded, now that Mako was there. ""Four-- <span class=""bb-i"">cough</span>, <span class=""bb-b"">five</span>-- of us should be enough for a safe expedition into Seto,"" he said, fidgeting with a part of his long bangs as he noticed Ayano in the corner apparently, ""so we should be good to go. I believe it's Samuru's first time in real action, though, correct? Let's all be careful, since we don't have much back-up going forward.""<br/><br/>	Having acknowledged Samuru's official participation in the team, Sato turned to head into the mirror world, but he stopped at Samuru's question(s). ""I guess you've never actually done this before..."" Sato scratched at the side of his face. He pulled out his phone to exchange numbers with Samuru as well as he spoke. ""Just walk into the mirror, and since we have our personas, it should just work. I would recommend against trying to enter any mirrors besides this one... It might have dangerous results."" Sato cocked his head a bit. ""And, I don't think bringing supplies is going to be necessary. This shouldn't take too long, and if worst comes to worst we have your guys' healing spells.""<br/><br/>	With that said, the group continued any conversation into the mirror world...<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><div class=""bb-h3""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVE1DGIlKro"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Sato Hashimoto // Seto: The First Step</a></div>	The quartet of teens emerged onto the strange corrupted streets of Mirror Warakuma, and Sato was relieved to find that the Mirror World was somehow cooler, though muggy and suffocating. Sato lead the group down several familiar-looking roads before they suddenly found themselves on the shore of sea of Seto. The torii that marked its entrance towered over the group, and Sato turned towards the group once again.<br/><br/>	""Here we are."" He said. ""The steps beyond the torii should lead us into the first area of Seto. Exploring there should be our first priority, but don't stray too far from the group. Ayano's navigation can't save you."" The group then went down the long staircase into what lay beneath the surface of the sea, entering the same Japanese-esque forest and village as before. It seemed odd to be back so soon, after having only been going once every week or so. It was all fairly familiar to Sato, though, so he simply walked along with the others as they journeyed into the depths of Seto.</div>"

Despite the expectations that there would be a fight, the young man thought to himself that any battle would be better later than sooner. This was not out of cowardice, but rather a feeling that he needed to practice being alert first before diving into a skirmish.<br/><br/>He would turn towards the closest party member, which could be either Mako, Sato, and Ryan, then say, ""Anyway, there were vague mentions of a Cult in the explanation given two days ago.

Unfortunately, this did not sit too well with Mako, it seemed, who sounded a little annoyed at the interjection - but before any hostilities might spring up between them, Igore spoke up once more; unperturbed by the brief exchange.<br/><br/>Kotori's initial confusion was visibly mirrored in her quizzical expression when the long-nosed man - if he could be called such - announced a feast of sorts before handing things off to his assistant. Henrietta in turn explained that the Velvet Room would be offering services in form of a meal, as explained by the menues before everyone. This brough about a surprised blink by Kotori who had not seen such a menu when she'd initially glanced about - but as she looked down at the table before her, there now was indeed a leather-bound booklet placed before each and every occupant.<br/><br/>Henrietta let a few moments pass in silence as everyone peered into the menu before continuing her words. This meeting was intended to be an informative one - one which had only now become due with the latest addition of both Samuru and Fubuki. It was also only now that Henrietta explained that they were free to come and go as they pleased that Kotori realised that this was the purpose of the key she had received on her first visit to this place over a month ago. Still, whilst she was not opposed to everyone being granted the chance to improve their abilities of dealing with the threat of the shadows through these services, she couldn't help but feel slightly apprehensive at the fact it would mean yet more danger for everyone involved.<br/><br/>Following Henrietta's recommendation of the desserts - Kotori could have sworn she saw the assistant licking her lips at the word out of the corner of her eyes for but an instant at the mention of that word - there was another momentary pause as both denizens of the Velvet Room let the words, both spoken and written, sink in before Igor thanked his assitant. Turning his rather large eyes back to the occupants of the table, he then declared this meeting adjourned - though he was looking forward to seeing them all before too long; a equally unusually wide smile breaking out across his face as he bid everyone farewell. And with those words, Kotori's vision faded back to black...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Shirohane Residence | Thursday</span><br/><br/>...as she found herself back in the seat before her desk, her vision blocked not by darkness but rather the simple fact that her eyes were closed. Kotori blinked a few times as she had to adjust to the strange feeling of being back in reality - before turning her gaze downward. A relieved sigh came over her lips when she realised that she was still wearing her normal clothes rather than the pretty dress of the Velvet Room - she had no idea how she would have explained its sudden appearance to her mother.<br/><br/>With her mind still swimming in questions surrounding both the Mirror World and the Velvet Room and her gaze still down-turned, Kotori's eyes met the still-open school books on the desk before her; a silent reminder that she was almost done with her homework for the summer break. It took her a moment, but she managed to calm the many thoughts circling the unanswered mysteries about the Mirror World and instead brought her mind back on track with the train of thought that had been so suddenly interrupted. Slightly pushing up her glasses that were threatening to begin slipping from looking down too long, Kotori set about solving the remaining problems.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>With a contented sigh, Kotori closed the last book before her and placed it with its neatly stacked fellow school books. Her homework completed and checked over once - though she told herself she was sure of her answeres, Kotori knew in the back of her mind that she'd still look over her answers eventually - she found herself at complete liberty for the day. As such, her previously banished thoughts did slowly begin to creep back to the fore as her mind wandered to the Velvet Room visit whilst barely stifling a yawn that betrayed her uneasy rest the night before.<br/><br/>However, even in light of this new information, she still could not piece together just what this whole Mirror World was about. What was this Junsei Sekai Tensei's connection with it? And was there any reason behind her own involvement beyond pure chance - or everyone else's, for that matter? A now more disappointed sigh followed a slow shake of her head as her thoughts turned in unsolved circles. Though she knew that these were things of great importance, she could not get to the bottom of them - at least not until she knew more. As such, she decided to put these questions to rest as best she could, instead looking up and out of the window. With sitting in her chair and wondering all day no longer an option, that did mean that she'd need something else to keep herself busy.<br/><br/>The clear blue sky promised another nice if rather hot summer day - leading her to consider a walk to the local park. Perhaps she could take a book with her and find a bench in the shade of one of the trees there. That is, if her mother didn't need any help around the store - but then again, when Kotori had last offered such, she'd been quite clearly informed that a summer break was meant to be enjoyed and that she should spend some time outside rather than stay cooped up inside with her books almost all summer. Again.<br/><br/>Kotori practically jumped out of her seat when her phone suddenly rang. After getting over her immediate surprise and clearly still not accustomed to getting calls or messages, she was somewhat grateful that at least no one had been around to see all that - but that sentiment quickly faded and was replaced by a sinking feeling when she saw who the sender was. Not because she disliked Rui - but rather because getting a message from him usually meant one thing: Mirror World.<br/><br/>Indeed, such was the case this time as well - but this time, the cause was a little different. Instead of it being a call to action due to Megumi or Ayano detecting an anomalous occurence in the other realm or a kidnapping taking place, it was rather more a heads-up on behalf of both Ryan and Sato that they were planning to head into the Mirror World to explore this Seto place more closely and invited anyone who felt up for it to accompany them.<br/><br/>With no lives immediately at stake, Kotori's immediate thought was to abstain - but just a moment later, her previous train of thought she'd so carefully tried to avoid returned once more. Would this perhaps reveal more about the nature of the Mirror World? Even if it was dangerous, that might shed some light on this whole mystery after all. Furthermore, just because no one had been kidnapped did not mean that no one might get hurt - a small frown accompanied the memory of hearing about Shizuka coming under heavy attack just yesterday.<br/><br/>This mental back-and-forth continued for a few seconds before a small sigh came across Kotori's lips. Though she did not enjoy the prospect of perhaps having to enter the Mirror World when it was not strictly necessary, she knew that she'd be feeling even worse if someone ended up getting hurt when she may have been able to help if only she'd been there. As such, she reluctantly got up to get ready to head out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Abandoned Warehouse | Thursday</span><br/><br/>As it turned out, Kotori arrived to late - Ayano informed her that besides Ryan and Sato, both Mako and Samuru had already met up and, under her navigatorial guidance, made their way inside. Guilty though she may feel for it, Kotori couldn't help but feel almost a little relieved as that meant that she'd be able to remain on the sidelines for now - though if the need truly arose, she knew that she'd nonetheless have to brave the Mirror Realm to render any aid she may. As such, there remained little for her to do beside hope that the four managed to complete their exploration unharmed and perhaps even uncover some new information about this strange place called Seto whilst she would wait in the warehouse for either their return or perhaps any new arrival.<br/><br/>Realising that this was the first time that she'd actually spent any time here without the whole group around, Kotori's eyes wandered around the warehouse. Once more, she realised just how derelict the whole place looked - of course she knew that the place was abandoned, but it still possess a rather unwelcoming utilitarian atmosphere with its size only amplified by the emptiness. As the words from the Velvet Room came to mind, Kotori surmised that the warehouse was going to be seeing more use over the summer break - and as such, could really do with a more welcoming touch.<br/><br/>Rather than just go ahead on her own, Kotori resolved to ask the others if such a thing could or even should be done - perhaps one of the Shoujin students. who'd been using this place for longer than everyone else, or Rui, who'd for all intents and purposes become a leader of sorts for the whole group. With that matter decided, Kotori reached into her bag and brought forth the most recent book she was reading. Though she occasionally glanced up at the grand mirror that served as the connection to the other realm just in case, most of her attention was soon focused on the story. Judging by the small smile, she seemed to be enjoying the novel even in spite of the fact that she could have summarised the entire plot from just the title and its romantic genre. But Kotori was not about to let such minor details spoil a good read.</div>"

He didn't suppose he'd ever really get used to all of this... whatever this was. There were perks, sure, but they didn't make up for almost dying. Mako raised an eyebrow at Ryan's statement about his Persona- seemed like there was something new about this power they held. <br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Our Personas can change?

No one who the team has rescued has been targeted again.

He smirked unpleasantly.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Whatever the case, Samuru, I don't think we really have cause to worry, anywhere but in here. But in here? We're the dangerous ones.

It seems they were given free reign of the place. It looks like he looked into it with Kazuki too, and it was confirmed that the place was actually property of Tadao's father, the older man who accompanied Kazuki who seemed to be busy working or getting everyone supplies. It seemed to him Tadao was the very competent one of that group.<br/><br/>Still, this meant the place was free for them to use as they please...

They had decided to head in to explore Seto on their own. He also noticed a blue door at the far end of the warehouse... That was likely the Velvet Room, he'll have to check that out later.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Hm, you guys are going in there on such a nice day?... Well, I guess it's fine. We'll stay here, in case something bad happens we can come in and assist you guys when that happens""</font>, with simple farewells they were showed away. On the other hand Kotori seemed to make herself busy reading a book on the sofa in the warehouse. She was quite absorbed in her book though, he didn't want to disturb her...<br/><br/>He signalled to Kami and Kazuki, and Tadao, who were behind him to not disturb her, as they set around furnishing the warehouse.<br/><br/>They put in quite a few things, there was a table and chair set, coffee table as mentioned, a few lawn chairs, there was even an old rug, camp gazebo, coat hanger, which Kazuki insisted on taking, a bunch of misc chairs and Tadao brought an old arm chair his father was going to sell. Later in the day Tadao said he was going to bring some spare wood to make some shelves too.<br/><br/>All the while, Kotori didn't even notice the entire place was being furnished around her.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Seto - Hyuga, The First Step - Fields Trail 1-2</div><br/>23/7/15<br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/takaru"">@Takaru</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/letter-bee"">@Letter Bee</a></div><br/><br/>With that decided the group headed into the Mirror World. Upon entering, the party was met with what looked like a portal, it was a sharded mirror portal, floating in the air as it were, but they can see what is on the other side. Ayano recognized it as the village where Kami and such had fought the Oni, Sato would remember it.<br/><br/>Upon entering they were met with the village, which had become a safe zone of sorts, on the exit away from the small forestry behind them was open fields, it seemed to be the natural way to progress. The strange underwater feel of the entire area was a little hard to get used to, to first timers they'd immediately try and hold their breath but find it wasn't possible.<br/><br/>Behind the party they heard the screech of a bird as Zeke landed on the roof of a building nearby... It seemed intent on watching over the party.<br/><br/><font color=""yellow"">""I'll stay in the village as support. Explore at will""</font>, she stated simply.<br/><br/>As the party entered the fields ahead, the way forward was rather straightforward, there was a path and they should follow it, but eventually they came up to a cliff where they could survey the route from there... There were a few points of interest. There seemed to be a fairly large shadow just to the east up ahead, as well as a bridge it was guarding, but directly north was what appeared to be a hut of sorts. It had a few shadows visibly lurking near it, but with how open this area was they hadn't run into any shadows trying to ambush them just yet.<br/><br/>So it was up to them, try and clear the bridge, or head to the hut and look around?</div>"

The others wouldn't recognize it, so he looked at the rest of the group and nodded. ""This should lead us to the last place we've been to in Seto,"" he said, as he awkwardly climbed through the portal.<br/> <br/>	Once inside, Sato didn't feel the need to add to the conversation at hand. Mako summed up any point he would try to make, anyway, so Sato focused on carefully watching their surroundings. Ayano didn't seem to sense any shadows in the apparent safe area they had created upon defeating the Oni, but he felt it frugal to keep an eye out, just in case. There was little to note until they managed to exit the village down into an open field. Looking back, they could see the forest they could have passed through, but the mirror had circumvented it completely. If more of these portals would appear, it would definitely make navigating Seto much easier. The question was, though, how big even was Seto...? For some reason, though, upon leaving the safe area, the air suddenly felt heavier-- a familiar suffocating feeling that permeated the mirror world. Except, this time, it felt a lot more drowning... He'd felt it the last time he was in Seto, but it was still a foreign feeling compared to the average dungeon they went to. <br/><br/>	Behind them, Zeke screeched as it perched upon a roof, apparently watching over them. Ayano decided to stay near the bird to provide support from a distance as the rest of the team explored. Sato's first instinct was to confirm if there was a shadow presence, and Ayano almost immediately confirmed the suspicion. It was hard to tell where, but there was definitely something lurking around ahead... Cautiously, Sato lead the group up to a cliffside that allowed the team to observe the rest of the paths. The only notable things were a bridge being guarded by a large shadow, and a shack surrounded by some weaker looking shadows. There didn't seem to be anywhere else to go in sight, so these seemed to be the only options they had. Of course, splitting up would be ill-advised, so they were going to have to decide which one to take on as a group.<br/><br/>	""Bridge, or the hut..."" Sato posed the question, thinking to himself quietly. The only real path seemed to be over the bridge, so someone would probably have to take it out sooner or later, but exploring around the hut might reveal either another way to go or something that could prove useful in future battles. All in all, though, Sato figured it would be good to be thorough when exploring Seto as to not miss anything potentially important, so they were probably going to do both anyway. ""I'd say we should take out the weaker shadows first, and then see if we can handle the bigger one afterwards.

Ryan shrugged and climbed through after Sato, immediately feeling a change in pressure.<br/><br/>Ryan looked around to make sure nothing would surprise them, but Ayano didn't mention any Shadows so it was probably safe. Probably. Looks like this is a safe area then. Makes sense that the Mirror wouldn't drop them in the middle of a group of enemies. They exited the village and appriached an open field, there was a forest behind them but they had managed to go around it with the Mirror. Handy thing. Hopefully it would do that often because it seemed like Seto was a lot bigger than he initially thought. Ryan breathed in deeply as he realized he was subconsciously holding his breath. This was definitely gonna take some getting used to, the question is did he want to get used to this oppressive place?<br/><br/>Ryan flinched as Zeke screeched from behind them, landing on a roof to watch them and provide aerial support. He remembered the first time he saw that thing, it had bombed a bunch of Shadows that had quite frankly been whupping everyone's ass. They scouted ahead, Ayano stayed behind with Zeke, and got to a nearby cliff to survey the land. Ayano told everyone there were Shadows to the east and to the north. Big Shadow at the bridge and small Shadows at the hut. <br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""I say we head to the hut first.

It took her a moment to realize the name of the person she got it from, though, who just happened to be the leading competitor for 'weirdest thing in the dream'. <br/><br/>Deciding it was time to properly wake up and check the schedule for the day, Fubuki turned to her makeshift table*, and brushed the empty cups and cans from the table into the bucket next to it. With her table cleared, she pulled her backpack away from the side of the couch, retrieved the laptop from inside and put it on the table. A few clicks later, Fubuki was staring at a digital planner, but it was mostly empty for today. The only mention read; ""Get furniture.""<br/><br/>*Fubuki's makeshift table: A large wooden board on some concrete blocks. Not very pretty, but it gets the job done.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Fubuki Sayaka</div><div class=""bb-h3"">Streets &gt; Abandoned Warehouse<br/>23/7/2015, Thursday</div></div><br/>With her dayplanning limited to a single activity, Fubuki calmly made her way through town. Furniture stores were all extremely expensive, and while she had been saving up, Fubuki doubted she could buy more than a single piece of furniture. As luck would have it, she managed to find a garage sale near the edge of town, though someone seemed to have beaten her to it. They were just leaving as she arrived, and there hadn't really been anything interesting left afterwards. More importantly, something felt off. She'd recognized a few of them as students from the same school she attended, and even a few from the crazy dream, though she couldn't quite figure why they'd be interested in furniture. Perhaps their situation was the same as hers? With her interest peaked, Fubuki decided to just follow them.<br/><br/>She'd almost lost them on the way, but eventually managed to notice them again by the furniture they carried. They were all inside already when Fubuki reached the warehouse, they had a bit of a headstart on her after all. Without a care in the world, Fubuki stepped in the warehouse. After taking a moment to behold the cozy setting the group was creating, she commented in her standard, nonchalant tone. <br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6"">""Pardon the intrusion.

As much as he'd like to prove his skills against the larger Shadow, it was probably a bad idea to just charge in against a possibly-dangerous opponent. On the other hand, if it was sufficiently powerful, maybe it would be best to get it out of the way first, without wearing themselves down on the mobs. He tapped his foot. Decisions, decisions... <br/><br/>Just as Mako was about to open his mouth to offer his suggestion, it appeared that Ryan and Samuru were keen on answering for him, both advocating going after the mobs. Hmm. Well... he did need a warm-up, before the exercise, he supposed. He gripped the chain in his right hand a little tighter, same with the hatchet in his left. His mouth twisted slightly- he really should get some better weaponry. Maybe he could get some gauntlets from the Velvet Room, or elsewhere in here...?<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, I guess I'm outvoted.

The sudden thrust into leadership felt jarring to him, as he was unused to not having to listen to Rui, their natural-born leader. Well, he was the most experienced out of his current group though, so maybe that was also only natural. As for strategy, though, he didn't have much of an idea of what to do. They didn't really know much about their enemies, so a broad role-casting was all they could really decide on for now.<br/><br/>	""Okay, looks like we're going to clear out the cabin and proceed from there."" Sato nodded to the others. ""If his persona really is particularly resilient, then it'd be best for Samuru to take the front-lines as he suggested. Mako can take the fight up-front as well, while Ryan and I support from behind. It's our first fight in Seto and Samuru's first time in combat, so let's take it carefully.""<br/><br/>	With that brief plan, Sato drew his bow and motioned for the group to proceed towards the hut. The group quickly found a good path down from their surveying perch, and slid down the side of the dirt cliff and onto the path that lead to both the bridge and the hut. He didn't know what Samuru's defenses were really like, but he couldn't do much but wait and see as they approached the group of shadows effectively guarding the shack. Summoning Chronos, Sato took a battle stance, ready for the fight to start.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/letter-bee"">@Letter Bee</a></div></div>"

They seemed to be like the Oni he'd fought before, which made him wonder if they were similarly 'made' of glass. Were they 'reflections' of something, if this was the mirror world...?<br/><br/>	Sato ignored the thought, as the Unicorn gave a warning shot in the form of a Zionga. It seemed that they were as aggressive as any other shadow, despite their insistence that they were having a picnic when they were rudely interrupted by the group of persona-users, so a fight was unavoidable. Sato prepared to blast them away with a Garudyne, but stopped himself when Samuru stepped forward in what looked like an attempt to negotiate with the shadows. It seemed like an interesting course of action that Sato had previously not considered, and he almost respected the pacifist line of thinking, but any good will towards Samuru was clearly lost on the battlefield as the shadows merely ignored his pleas and attacked them at will.<br/><br/>	Fortunately, though, Samuru quickly realized the fate of the situation and ended up burning down their defenses with a strong Deathbound. The Decarabia was instantly eviscerated by the blast, while the two Unicorns stood their ground despite the damage it inflicted.<br/><br/>	""Man, these are some weak shadows,"" Sato muttered to himself. Was it even worth exerting the energy to kill them...? Probably not. Opting to lower his bow as the Unicorns stood solemnly beside each other, Sato nodded to his team-mates to finish them off for him.

It would be good to get some exercise, no matter what the subject of his ire would end up being. He did raise an eyebrow, however, as they approached, and the Shadows took on forms that he hadn't seen before. Odd. How many varieties of Shadow were there? These ones could even talk! Not that that meant much- his own Shadow could speak, too, and... well... that was a nightmare.<br/><br/>He stepped forward, weapons at the ready, when New Guy decided to try and reason with the Shadows. While a novel concept, it was ultimately pointless- the Shadows began mobbing the rookie, trying the damnedest to rip him apart. Thank the gods his Persona seemed designed to tank hits. New Guy eventually got the hint, calling forth his Persona to slash at the enemies, killing one instantly. Ryan summoned his own Persona, looking far more glorious than before (he'd mentioned it had changed, but damn- that was impressive) and annihilated one of the remaining two with a wind spell.

The smile widened ever so slightly when the the story's main character met with her destined one, a small frown revealed the exact moment that the inevitable rival appeared whilst a slight arcing of the eyebrow indicated a slight plot hole - though one she was willing to overlook if it meant that the story could come together in a happy ending.<br/><br/>However, before she could confirm her overwhelmingly likely suspicion a voice managed to break her intent focus on the book in her hands. Though it took her more than a second to tear herself away from the pages after the unfamiliar sound occurred, Kotori did finally look up and peered through her glasses at the source of it. Her eyes widened in surprise when she traced it back to a certain blue-haired girl who had just entered the warehouse - though as it seemed, she wasn't the only one. Her words hadn't been addressed at Kotori but rather at Rui, who turned to greet her in turn - and whose appearance had somehow completely slipped her attention.<br/><br/>Not only that, but so too did Kaminari and even Tadao and Kazuki as well. A surprised-sounding <font color=""green"">""Ah""</font> was quick to escape Kotori's lips as she hastily closed her book and scrambled to her feet; more than a little flustered at somehow having gotten so engrossed into a silly story that she hadn't even noticed other people arriving. As Rui was asking the newly-arrived girl - who was the same that they'd rescued from Seto just yesterday and who'd been present at the Velvet Room along with all the others - if she was willing to join their by now no longer small group, Kotori slowed her pace so as to not just barge into the conversation; giving a small bow in greeting to the others as she passed by them with a wryly apologetic look for not having done so sooner.<br/><br/>Standing slightly aside and still clutching the book in her hands, Kotori waited for the girl to first answer Rui's question before she would step forward and greet the two with another bow. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, good day,""</font> she said, glancing between the two - and only belatedly realising that it would be rather rude to speak to someone without introducing herself first. <font color=""green"">""Ah, I-I'm Kotori Shirohane,""</font> she quickly said with another small bow before remembering that there was the matter of the warehouse's interior decoration to bring up - though that topic certainly could wait until the blue-haired girl was brought up to speed on the exact nature of this undertaking.<br/><br/>Even whilst Kotori idly wondered about the particular shade that the other girl's hair held, she had yet to actually notice that the unspoken matter had, in fact, already been mostly resolved all the while she'd been focused on her reading.</div>"

A rather standard skill it seems.<br/><br/>Well, with that picked up, all that was left was the bridge.

Though, Sato had to admit that Ryan's new persona was the star of the show, brilliant wings radiating an indignant holiness as it summoned a windstorm. He'd never even considered the idea that their personas could evolve like that... But if they're reflections of your psyche or something, wouldn't that require a drastic shift in paradigm? What had evoked such a change in Ryan? That was probably too personal to ask, so Sato opted to ignore it for now and he walked over to the others. Mako seemed to be berating Samuru for trying to foolishly negotiate with the shadows.<br/><br/>	""Don't be too harsh on him, these shadows are unusually sentient contrary to what we've seen before."" Sato said to Mako, though he gave a scolding look to Samuru as well. ""You're fortunate that these shadows weren't very strong. I understand what you were trying to do, but from here on out, you can't hesitate in this world. No matter how strong you are, we have to be careful at all turns."" Sato rolled his neck, turning back towards the hut they've found. ""Either way, I agree-- let's go check out what they seemed to be defending.""<br/><br/>	Sato walked over to the front door of the shack and tried the handle. The metal on the lock seemed to be so unkempt that the whole door didn't seem to work, so he gave it a hard push with his shoulder and it basically collapsed in on itself. The force of blow sent a hurricane of dust at the party, making it impossible to breath or see for a few moments. Once the dust clear, the group stepped into the hut and looked around. It seemed to be pretty much empty besides a sole chest resting in the middle of it. They had no incentive to <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> open it, so he cracked it open and looked at the only thing inside: a small stack of cards.<br/><br/>	""They're just cards...?"" Sato muttered. Who would just put a couple cards in a chest and nothing else? A little confused, he drew a card from the top of the deck and looked at it. Upon seeing the illustration on the front of the card, though, Sato felt a sharp jolt in the back of his head. A new understand flooded into his mind: whatever it was, these cards granted them new abilities. As the others each drew a card, Sato slid the card into his pocket (which, similar to the Velvet Key, seemed to disappear into the ether once out of sight) and turned towards the others. ""Did you guys feel that too? It feels like my Persona was granted a new power through these cards...""<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""royalblue""><span class=""bb-b"">&gt; Chronos learned ""Rakunda""!</span></font></div><br/><br/>	With that done, the group exited the dusty hut and looked on at the second challenge they had to face. The large shadow guarding the bridge watched them back eerily, as if waiting for them. There didn't seem to be any other good way to go, so there was only one route of action... Zeke screeched above them, as if to let them know that it was ready to help at a moment's notice.<br/><br/>	""Should we open with Zeke's carpet bombing, ability... thing, or should we save it for when we really need it?"" Sato asked, watching the hawk circle them above. He drew his bow as they waited to initiate battle with the big shadow.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/letter-bee"">@Letter Bee</a></div></div>"

Now that the enemy was torn down a notch, Ryan summoned his persona, and it immediately lifted its sword to the air. The laser blade exploded into a giant cleaver of sheer energy, before Geraint sent the flow of energy down onto the shadow. The brilliant explosion sent out a cloud of dust that almost blew away the party, but instead of feeling the grit in his eyes, Sato felt weirdly ready to fight as the aura coming from the attack enveloped the party.<br/><br/>	Though Ryan seemed to need a moment to recover after that move, the attack he had used left Zouchouten already quite hurt and left it wide open for some hyper-charged attacks from everyone else. Sato didn't skip a beat and summon his persona, who he called to use a Garudyne on the shadow. While he did nothing special, the energy seemingly coursing through his veins flowed into the attack, amping up the wind storm into a variable tornado that hit the shadow with so much sheer force that it almost knocked over the towering figure.<br/><br/>	""Less prose, more fighting!"" Sato called out to Samuru, who seemed more interested in giving some exposition about his justice than he did actually hitting the shadow. As if to give an example, Sato pulled back his bowstring and let loose an arrow enveloped in an aura from Chronos. The shot blew into the sky at an astounding speed, floating high in the air for a few moments before crashing down as spears of light in a powerful display of a charged Rainy Death. Using two amplified attacks like that, Sato felt pretty damn cool, but he immediately felt a familiar dull ache in the back of his head and used his free hand to clutch his forehead. It wasn't debilitating, but using them in quick succession like that was a maneuver Sato felt unaccustomed to. Dodging wasn't much not a possibility for the next little bit as he tried to let the pain fade.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/letter-bee"">@Letter Bee</a></div></div>"

Yet still, Geraint's move empowered the moves of everyone else, the boosted versions of the attacks proved enough to do some meaningful damage, plus the Debilitate severely limited Zouchouten's options, the physical resistance only meant that it was able to weather the attacks with little problem.<br/><br/>Now it was the shadow's turn, the giant warrior shadow spun it's spear around, letting it end up behind him, before flourishing and then doing a downward thrust.

Akane actually showing up to the warehouse without a 'summons' via Rui text messaging. We all know how easily things can turn into a habit when done in repetition and without giving it much thought, she arrived at her destination. Usually, with school in session, she'd always go to the manga clubroom, draw and then head to the warehouse via usual summons.<br/><br/>But with it being summer break, it seems the warehouse was becoming something akin to a 2nd club room of sorts. Well, given the fact that a good number of members were also in the manga club together, no real surprise there. Anyways, Slung over her back was a black pull string bag, once again showing how unfeminine Akane is, and in it were her sketch book and drawing supplies. Inside the warehouse were 3 people; Rui, Kotori and another girl. It took her a moment to remember, Ah, latest kidnappe'. Well, she didn't know the girl at all and her dungeon wasn't exactly thrilling, so it'll be understandable that she wouldn't recall her, yea?<br/><br/>Well, Akane's reasoning aside, it was clear that she wasn't exactly interested in getting to know people better. That kind of thing just happens on its own, ya know? Like how the majority of the people just <span class=""bb-i""> happen</span> to be in the manga club. Moving on, Apparently, Ryan, Mako, <span class=""bb-s"">Saki</span> Sato and the Fanatic (Sumaru), whether or not he truly is a 'fanatic' matters not to her, arrived before her but decided to take a little trip to the mirror world together. She was tempted to go in after them, but the thought of being on the same team as Sumaru shut that thought down. Her and 'those' types (religious) just don't mix, so she'll pass.<br/><br/>Besides, she had some drawing to catch up on (no thanks to Igor's 'summons' last night) and couldn't exactly relax at her place lately, not with her dad's goons swarming the area. Sheesh, after since that 'incident' she just can't seem to get some peace at her own place. Normally, one would say 'Well, than just go talk to your father?' but if they actually knew who her father was and what he did for a living, I wonder what they'd say then? <span class=""bb-i"">The man is too over-protective, no matter how many times I tell him 'I'm fine, so leave me alone already!' it's just in one ear and out the other with him.</span><br/><br/>Making her way past the new girl, Akane made her towards one of the chairs that Rui had just set up. She had assumed Rui already has smooth talked his way into recruiting yet another person to the team but that thought was shut down with the girls next line. Waiting for the girl to finish, Akane finally decided to say something. <font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""If you don't even know that much, then why are you here exactly?

Given that the only time she'd been present at a talk about joining the group was when it had been her own turn, Kotori was a little unsure whether this was a good or bad thing. Still, seeing as she was neither running away nor calling them crazy - not quite surprising, given that she'd already seen the Mirror World first hand - Fubuki did seem at least inclined to listen; asking Rui to sit down and explain it all in detail - and leading Kotori to blink in surprise at the sudden boldness of declaring him the boy of her dreams. Said surprise only lasted for a moment, however, before she realised that she was talking about the meeting in the Velvet Room earlier - if there was such a thing as 'earlier' in that place.<br/><br/>As Fubuki was introducing herself in turn, Kotori saw some movement out of the corner of her eye - which turned out to be Akane who was just entering the warehouse as well. <font color=""green"">""Ah, good day, Hanazawa-san,""</font> Kotori said with a quick bow as her classmate moved past the small assembly of people in order to take nearby seat. Following Fubuki's words, Akane's usual straight-forward ways made themselves known once more as she questioned Fubuki's reason for even showing up if she didn't know exactly what was going on. Fearing that her classmate's blunt honesty might come off as a little off-putting, Kotori tried to assuage any ire - at least, she would have if she'd known what to say. Instead, she glanced between Fubuki and Akane for a moment, her mouth opening as if to say something but finding no words before Rui spoke up instead.<br/><br/>Whilst the other three boys busied themselves with setting up another piece of furniture in the back of the warehouse, Rui led Fubuki over to a table surrounded by slightly worn chairs with Kotori following a small ways behind - and only now noticing the strange fact that there was a table where thin air had been just minutes prior. Or at least that's what it had felt like, given how easily she got lost in books and thus failed to notice how time passed. Standing a few steps away, she finally looked about - and realised that all the while she'd been engrossed in the story of the book she was still holding in her hands, the boys had already carried and set up a whole host of furniture.<br/><br/>With a nigh-inaudibly mumbled <font color=""green"">""S-sorry...""</font> Kotori quickly moved over to one of the empty seats when she in turn realised that this also meant that she hadn't done the slightest thing to help them all throughout; her guilty conscience immediately making itself known as she sat down and overpowering any slight joy at having come up with much the same idea earlier, given that she hadn't gone and actually turned thought into action unlike them. Rui meanwhile had already begun explaining the situation to Fubuki, about how the Mirror World was indeed real - for a given measure of the word - and that with the awakening of her persona, she might be able to help others like they'd done for her.<br/><br/>As he finished, Kotori lifted her down-turned eyes to glance between the two from behind her glasses - and at Akane, who'd made herself comfortable in another chair as well. She wanted to say something to help Fubuki make up her mind - but seeing as she knew nothing more about both the Mirror World and the phenomenon of Personas, there was little more she could do but give an encouraging smile.<br/><br/>At least, that's what she tried - the result was more of a wry half-smile with an apologetic streak when her gaze was met with the sight of Kaminari, Tadao and Kazuki debating over the exact kind of screw that was supposed to be used on the piece they were working on.</div>"

Sato frowned at the realization; they were going to have to rely only on magic, but it didn't seem to have any weakness they could exploit. After the group had been hitting it for a while, Zouchouten finally decided to retaliate, taking a swing at Ryan. It seemed to be a glancing blow at worst, leaving Ryan still fit for battle, but a direct blow would be devastating.<br/><br/>	The shadow seemed to be going to try to hit Ryan again, so Sato quickly summoned Chronos again and used another Garudyne to try to stop its advance. The blast didn't seem to be particularly strong compared to the group's last few attacks, but it still seemed to catch Zouchouten's attention. After that, it seemed it had finally considered Sato a big enough threat to deal with, as it reared up its weapon and took a swing at Sato. He tried to dodge, but he reacted too slowly and the blow sent him flying backwards a fair distance, breaking his persona and crumpling him on the ground. After a few moments of trying to swallow the pain, Sato pushed himself up from the ground, but had to stop to clutch his injury. A long gash went up his side, a stream of blood rushing out. It wasn't life-threatening, but it really hurt like a bitch. Thankfully, Samuru quickly responded with a Mediarama to quell the pain, a wave of light closing their wounds and erasing any trace of previous damage... But, even though the gash had been close, Sato could still feel the pain, his head a little cloudy.<br/><br/>	""Tch, its physical attacks are strong..."" Sato wiped a small line of blood from his mouth. ""If that's how it's gonna be... Chronos, use <span class=""bb-b"">Tetrakarn</span>!"" At his command, Chronos spun its scythe and summoned a barrier around Ryan. Though the shadow wouldn't take much damage from a reflected blow, blocking a hit would prove useful against something that hits as hard as Zouchouten. After buffing Ryan, Sato decided to just stand back for a bit and watch the fight carefully. Making more foolish mistakes would just result in more injuries.<br/><div class=""bb-center""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/enterthehero"">@EnterTheHero</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/letter-bee"">@Letter Bee</a></div></div>"

Ryan was still recovering from his usage of the new skill, that had drained him way more than he imagined it would. Hopefully it wouldn't do that in the future as he got used to the initial level of stamina required to cast, but he had essentially skipped his turn which cost him. Zouchouten was about to swing at him when Sato got the Shadow's attention and took the blow for him.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Shit, Sato!""</font> Ryan began to run towards Sato to help him but then Zouchouten turned it's attention back to Ryan and swung his blade once more. He practically saw it coming in slow motion but he just couldn't muster up the energy to dodge, not while he was already running towards Sato. He crossed his arms and took the blow head on, rolling across the ground and coughing up a bit of blood. He could vaguely hear somebody in the bacground yelling that he needed healing and he completely agreed. Ryan struggled to sit up and summon Geraint for some healing, luckily new guy has him covered as he cast Mediarama on everyone, including him. It was a strange feeling, feeling your rent flesh knit itself back together and your cracked ribs solidify and move back into place. The phantom pain of the wounds lingered, but Ryan pushed through it and got up.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Alright, this is exactly why I hate you fuckers.""</font> He growled lowly at the Shadow as he held his hand out and crushed his Persona card. At the same time Sato summoned Chronos and cast Tetrakarn on him, kinda felt like an invisible pane of glass surrounded him. Geraint appeared before him and reflected Ryan's anger within his stance, very aggressive and ready to strike out. Geraint held its blade out towards Zouchouten and a light began to build underneath it's feet, exploding into a pillar of blinding holy magic. Ryan smirked, looks like he got more than just one new skill. Kougaon, holy light made to smite his foes. Sick.</div>"

It seemed Zouchouten felt the same, though, as it shook off the Kougaon the best it could and launched a counterattack on them. Swinging its weapon wildly, it hit the party with a Swift Strike, though the damage was nowhere near as bad as the direct hit Sato had suffered.<br/><br/>	It would've been bad to have everyone hit by it, but fortunately, the barrier Sato had put up on Ryan had been activated by the attack, exploding in the shadow's face and sending it tumbling backwards off its feet by the power of its own attack. Now that it was on the floor, even for a moment, the team had a clear opening for a final assault on the shadow, which should finish it off once and for all. ""Let's end this now!"" Sato called out to the others, nodding to Ryan as he called for an all-out attack. At that, the entire group sprung into action, rushing in with weapon and persona to hit it with everything they had. Blasts of magic, wind and light, cracked through the air, and explosions of physical force tore through the shadow like paper.<br/><br/>	Once everyone had done what they could, the group jumped away from the shadow, waiting for the dust to clear to see if it still stood.

As usual around this time of the year, the old man from down the street had come to pick up a bouquet of his wife's favourite flowers - a gesture that put a small smile on Kotori's face every year. Such events always did help make up for her ever-present dislike of standing at the counter of her family's flowershop - no matter how often she helped her mother out, her nervousness never could quite be abated. For that reason, she much preferred to be in the back room, watering the flowers, setting up new arrangements or getting the deliveries ready - but her mother had a knack of leaving her out front with the oddest smile as she busied herself otherwise. Kotori did occasionally wonder if her mother enjoyed seeing her fretting about whenever a stranger walked in - or, worse yet, a familiar face such as a fellow student.<br/><br/>Still, it had been a mostly quiet morning - unsurprisingly, given the propensity of families to go on trips, visit relatives or otherwise find themselves preoccupied elsewhere. There had only been a few visitors and a couple more passers-by who had taken a look at the vibrant display in the shop windows - a notion that made Kotori at least a little bit happy, seeing as she'd helped set them out. Coupled with the summery temperatures, she'd found her mind wandering more than a few times whilst she busied herself with tending to the flowers about the shop between visitors - mostly towards the novel that she'd picked up the day before from the library, but also what little that had been learned from the occasional foray into the Mirror World over the past few days.<br/><br/>Kotori was umming and ahhing over whether to turn a pot of chrysanthemums just that little bit more to the left or the right to put them in the best view when a sudden noise almost made her jump - even though she'd heard it quite a few times in recent weeks, she still was rather unused to the ringing of her own phone whenever she received a message. Looking up to make sure that she wouldn't be bothering any customer if she quickly checked her phone - and immediately regretting it when she saw the smiling face of the next door neighbour walking by outside, undoubtedly having seen her little display just now. With more than a little embarassment, Kotori quickly checked to see what exactly the message was about.<br/><br/>Her embarrasment almost immediately turned to worry when she saw from whom it was. A message from Rui usually meant another visit to the Mirror World was soon in order - whether to explore and understand that strange place or, worse yet, because someone had been kidnapped and forced into it. Almost hesitantly, Kotori checked the message - and found her worry turning into relief just a moment later when she realised that, for once, it was not a roundup call for an upcoming exploration of the Mirror World. This relief, however, was in turn quickly replaced by a slight confusion as she read on. As it turned out, it was a call for meeting indeed - but at quite a different place instead.<br/><br/>Kotori blinked in surprise, her brow furrowed above her glasses at the mention of a trip to the beach, courtesy of Tadao. Apparently, he wanted everyone to take a day off together as a sort of reward of rest for the continued endeavours in the Mirror World - and leaving Kotori feeling a little guilty as she wondered if she could just accept such a gift when she hadn't been part of the team for as long as some of the others or even been on every trip since then.<br/><br/><font color=""silver"">""Something interesting happen?""</font> her mother's voice suddenly asked from behind her, leading Kotori to jump in fright for a second time in as many minutes and spin around to see her mother's wide smile - evidently, she was more than pleased with the reaction she'd just elicited. <font color=""green"">""Ah, just a few of my... friends are going to, well, the beach this weekend,""</font> Kotori said, glancing between the phone that she'd pressed close to her chest in her sudden surprise and her mother as she spoke. As she did, she could practically see her face light up in delight. <font color=""silver"">""Oh, that's wonderful! When are you going? Does your swimsuit still fit you? Ah, that reminds me...""</font><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Kotori blinked stupendously when she found herself standing outside the shop less than five minutes later, relieved of the green apron she wore whenever she helped out and instead clasping a shopping bag, some money and an absolute order to not return until she had everything she might need for a trip to the beach. Turning to look back, her mother gave her a beaming smile as she enthusiastically waved her off - leaving Kotori with no choice but to head off toward Ferrero Mall.</div>"

Upon destroying it, an ominous voice resounded in their heads, but Sato made little sense of it before it faded away. Who was this 'Great Leader'? Hadn't both the cult members and the shadows made mention of them? Regardless of the message's meaning, though, the team took a moment to catch their breath before they advanced forward onto the cleared bridge now that there were no shadow readings nearby. Another pile of cards gently floated to the ground in front of them, however, so each member curiously took one. Upon turning it over, the front of it seemed to pulse and inject a clear understanding of it into the persona user's head.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;Chronos learned ""Mahamaon!""</span><br/><br/>	Seeing as the team was exhausted after the last couple of battles, the team proceeded forward a bit only to stop at the sign on the other side of the bridge, enabling it to connect to the rest of the transportation network. In other words, they could seamlessly warp from the bridge to the other two warp points they had found. How many other points were there, though? The question would fade away into Sato's head as the team proceeded back out of Seto and to the warehouse.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">- - - - - -</div><br/>	""Good job, team."" Sato called out to the other four as he stepped out of the mirror world, but he was surprised to see that someone had taken the time to clean up the warehouse while they were gone and provide some basic furnishings. All they really had before was a chair or two and the table where they threw all their junk, so seeing some level of homeliness was comforting to see. The others seemed to be enjoying a conversation amongst themselves, so Sato decided not to intrude, but he threw a wave to the new girl they had recently rescued. Hopefully she would indeed join the team, and she likely had considering how much she was integrating already.<br/><br/>	After putting his equipment away, Sato excused himself from the expidition squad they had formed and wandered over to the corner of the Warehouse, staring curiously at the velvet door standing there. He looked back at the others, all of whom seemed unconcerned with it to some degree, so he decided that it was in fact no mirage and instead the common thread between them-- the Velvet Room...<br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""royalblue"">The Velvet Room</font><br/><br/> <font color=""royalblue"">""Welcome... to the Velvet Room.""</font></div><br/><br/>	After opening the door, Sato had found his vision blurring until it revealed that he was sitting at the dining table like usual in those dreams. Curiously, looking around would show that all the other figures were blurred, implying that he was the only one ""connected"" to the room at that moment. The menu that Henrietta had introduced to them was sitting before him as she had told them that it would be, so Sato decided that he would try ""ordering"" something from it.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;Sato ordered from the dessert menu...</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;Chronos learned ""Makarakarn"", and ""Kouga""!</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;""Kouga"" was infused into Sato's Practice Yumi!</span><br/><br/>	Sato decided that he wasn't quite ready for tackling any of the challenges, considering his current state and lack of any planning, so he was content with just mucking around the dessert menu.

He set aside his stack of novels and swiped open his phone, only to see Rui detailing details on a trip to the beach the up-coming weekend. It seemed pretty concrete already, and apparently those rich kids from the private school intended on paying for all expenses so that they could just enjoy the whole trip. He didn't have any plans, so he decided he might as well go. Plus, it'd be a good chance to hang out with Mako. Though, it might be embarrassing, seeing him like that...<br/><br/>	Sato sent a quick confirmation that he'd come, and asked Mako what he was gonna do.

The very early hours of the morning dipped the air with a distinct chill, but as soon as one stepped out of the shade they would find that the sun had already begun blazing this time of morning. The train trip to the beach was roughly an hour long, so if they wanted to make it well before lunch they'd have to be up as early as 9. This was no issue for most of them, or at least it shouldn't be, they wake earlier for school after all.<br/><br/>Kazuki despite his dismissal of the event was already there with Megumi, who seemed somewhat excited, while Kazuki held a somewhat annoyed look.

It was a good few seconds before the owner of said hand stirred in bed, slowly sitting up and blinking at the sunlit covers. Stretching her arms out to try and rid herself of her drowsiness, Kotori couldn't quite stifle a yawn as she reached for her glasses placed on the small nighstand beside her - though the clatter of a noteboke striking the ground did wonders for rousing her in surprise. It took her a moment before she realised that she'd accidentally knocked down her packing list for today - and the one she'd spent the past few days revising before making sure she had everything she needed for the day's trip. Incidentally, it was also the reason for her sleepiness.<br/><br/>Given how rarely she went out with other people - excepting perhaps the excursions into the Mirror World, though she could hardly count those as a leisurely activity - she'd been both nervous and excited at the prospect ever since she'd gotten the message and agreed to go along too. And even though she'd made sure to double-check her list - cross-referenced with advice from her mother and anything she might find in travel guides - and triple-checked that she'd packed everything the day before, she'd still kept herself awake half the night, tossing and turning in bed and generally unable to sleep. Still, the prospect of going to the beach - even with the continued mixed feelings - did make some inroads to casting off the lethargy as she rubbed her eyes before going about her morning routine.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I'm off,""</font> Kotori called, to which her mother gave a smile as she waved her goodbye. <font color=""silver"">""Have fun and a safe trip,""</font> she said, watching her daughter walk off before turning back inside, humming an old tune to herself all the while. Kotori meanwhile was heading toward the proposed meeting point that was the train station. A quick glance to her watch confirmed that she was still well on time - even if she slowed to peek into the bag slung over her shoulder for a last check to see that she hadn't forgotten anything that may have slipped past her notice the last seven time she'd looked. Her mind was placated when she found exactly what she expected within, crossing everything off her mental list that she'd come to know by heart after going over it often enough. The new book, A full bottle of sunblock, even though she'd already applied it at home, her newly-acquired swimwear, a towel and a spare just in case someone forgot theirs, a bottle of water should there be nowhere to get something to drink in the heat - all told, Kotori was more than prepared.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Train Terminal | Saturday - Morning</span><br/><br/>As she drew closer to the train station, Kotori peered up from beneath the brim of her sun hat. The distinctive silhouette of the building really did stand out from the parts of town she'd just walked through - but at least that meant that it was hard to miss if someone happened to get lost around here. As she approached, Kotori took a moment to check her phone - just to be sure that the time and place of meeting hadn't mysteriously changed from five minutes ago. As it turned out, such was not the case and with her mind at ease - for now - she headed for the platform mentioned in the message.<br/><br/>The train station itself was rarely truly empty. Warakuma was large enough to have people boarding and exiting trains from morning light to the middle of the night even during the summer break - and as such, it came as little surprise when she passed the occasional familiar face; mostly being customers that she'd made deliveries to from her family's flower shop. She even saw a classmate with his family, carrying suitcases and evidently looking forward to spending some time away. However, it wasn't until she stepped onto the platform itself that Kotori caught sight of other members of the group she was a part of - though she was a little on the early side, it seemed that others were even more diligent.<br/><br/>Stepping forth a little more quickly, Kotori headed over to where Megumi was scolding Kazuki for his lack of enthusiasm in contrast to her own - and probably not for the first time this morning, either. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... good morning, everyone,""</font> she greeted hesitantly, giving a bow as she did after waiting for an opportune moment to interject between the two Shoujin students. Seeing as she hadn't really talked very much with either of them, Kotori did find some comfort in the fact that Rui was here too. Slipping her bag off her shoulder, she glanced around the platform to see who else was going to join them.</div>"

With everything going on in Warakuma, with the cult and the Mirror World and Seto and all that, was hanging around at the beach the best thing they could be doing? Maybe he was overthinking it. Sato checked his phone idly. No new texts and it was 8:30. They <span class=""bb-i"">were</span> just teenagers. And it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> summer vacation, so they should just enjoy themselves, right?

She smiled, ""Are you sure you have everything you need?""<br/><br/>	""I'm good, thanks.""<br/><br/>	His mom raised her eyebrows suspiciously and eyed the minimalist load-out Sato was bringing. ""Are you <span class=""bb-i"">sure</span>?"" Sato dodged the question by giving her a hug and ducking out the front door before she could say anything further, but before he could truly escape she stood at the door and called after him. ""Be safe, Sato! I love you!""<br/><br/>	Sato swiveled around as he started down the street and gave her a small wave. ""See ya tonight!""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>	Sato checked his phone again as he walked into the station. It wasn't even 9 yet, but it was already getting pretty hot out. Hopefully the beach wouldn't burn them alive when they got there, but at least there was always the ocean to cool off in. Walking into the station, Sato noticed Kotori first, who was hiding under a sun hat and carrying around a bag presumably packed with essentials. He suddenly felt inadequate, having only brought a single towel and sunglasses. And the others weren't wearing swimsuits yet. Shit, should he have brought a change of clothes? All he had was the clothes he was wearing-- a loose button-up and his swimtrunks (a dark blue with clock patterns; his mom said it was cool).<br/><br/>	The group had found a spot on the platform safely out of the way of any of the station's commuters, so Sato made his way over to the others, but he was surprised to see that only Rui, Kotori, and the two Shoujin students were there. Sato gave a small bow to his fellows and gave a quiet, ""Morning."" He briefly thought of making small talk, like ""Who else is excited for the beach?"", or ""Nice day for the trip, huh?"", but he decided against it seeing as everyone there didn't seem the type to get awfully hyped. A cool guy would've gotten there late, so Sato figured that he was only cool in the headed sense.<br/><br/>	A few minutes passed and Sato awkwardly shifted in his own skin. He thought it would be more cloudy, but with how hot the sun was on the walk there, he was definitely gonna need some skin protection for the whole day. He rubbed the back of his neck and turned to Kotori. ""I think I came a little unprepared..."" He muttered, unsure of his relationship with the second-year girl. ""Do you have sunscreen or any such thing?"" </div>"

After his alarm went off again he groaned and hit the snooze button again, why did he even have his alarm set? After his alarm went off one more time he slowly sat up and rubbed his eyes, wondering why he had decided to get up so early on a saturday during the summer. He got dressed into his usual casual clothes and brushed his teeth, still half asleep as he went through his morning routine. It was only in the middle of breakfast that his eyes snapped open and he realised what today was. He ran back to his room, muttering curses under his breath the whole time as he tried to get all his essentials packed into his blue backpack, also grabbing a comb and putting it in his pocket just so he could straighten out his hair on the way to the train terminal.<br/><br/>As he ran back downstairs to finish his breakfast quickly he cursed himself for getting up so late, especially considering everyone was probably waiting for him at the train already.

He went downstairs to where his mother and father were watching a televised mass on the TV, and sat behind them as they watched the priest officiate over the sacred ceremonies. <span class=""bb-i"">It doesn't matter if God is Evil,</span> he thought once more. <span class=""bb-i"">What matters, is that his creed can be salvaged.</span><br/><br/>His mother was the first to notice his presence, and say: ""You ready for your first beach trip without family?"" This was responded to with a slight, but prompt nod, which caused the boy's father to smile at his wife and son.<br/><br/>""Samuru,"" the middle-aged man said as he rose up, brusing off dust from his salaryman's pants, ""Before you go, we would like to tell you...we love you for what you are.

Gratitude filled Samuru's heart as he said:<br/><br/>""Thank you, Father, thank you, Mother. I love you two too."" The televised mass finished at that moment, allowing Samuru to get up so that he can finally go depart on his 'beach trip'. As he walked out of the house, he would wave goodbye, goodbye at the smiling faces of his parents. He would remember that when things were darkest, he supposed. For if he continued with his connection to Rui, things will get darker.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Train Terminal, Warukama Town</span></span><br/><br/>Samuru would join Rui's group, taking great care to stay away from Ryan Chideta and Sato Hashimoto and Mako Moritomi. He was not certain where things stood between them after Seto, and was...scared to find out. This state of affairs would last for a while, during which he would look at Rui Sinichi and his two...co-leaders? He would blink, looking at the people around him, the people he had disappointed. And he would not be able to speak.<br/><br/>He visualized the Chapel of the Martyr, then The Velvet Room, the two places where he had confronted his Shadow. He now knew that his troubles had not ended, if anything, they had just begun. Which brought up the question; should he stay within Rui's group?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Flee,</span> his mind spoke, <span class=""bb-i"">These people will never be your friends, acceptance or no acceptance. What do you owe to them when they only rescued you out of obligation, when they are merely a closed circle?

That moment passed, to be replaced with acknowledgement. He will not refuse to own up to his failings and his lines of thinking ever again.<br/><br/>He faced his group, for they were his'. They might not like him that much, but he will try his hardest to help them. He just wished he knew how; his first thought was to offer Sato some sunscreen, but the other young man might take that the wrong way.<br/><br/>That and it could also insult Kotori to assume that she didn't bring any lotions. Sigh, it meant that he would have to reply to Ryan, then. Ryan whom he had offended because of his ineptitude and being overly nice in a warzone. Looking up at the Chideta scion, Samuru would say, ""Well, I'm doing fine.

""Here, if you want it."" <span class=""bb-i"">He probably doesn't</span>, the treacherous part of him thought, and Samuru acknowledged that courageously, meaning that he didn't stop doing what he was doing. <span class=""bb-i"">I stand by my group, even when I failed them before.</span><br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sho-minazuki"">@Sho Minazuki</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/takaru"">@Takaru</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/floodtalon"">@floodtalon</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sen"">@Sen</a></div>"

Kotori, standing aside from them, glanced between the two as Megumi tried to get her fellow Shujin student to perk up at the prospect of a summery beach visit - whilst Kazuki's lack of enthusiasm was only good for a roll of his eyes and a dismissal of her words. As she'd only really seen either of them when everyone had been called upon for a foray into the Mirror World, Kotori wasn't too sure of whether such small-scale bickering was usual for them or if perhaps the mood may turn sour all too soon should they continue - but luckily, she wouldn't have to confirm her fears when an interruption arrived just moments later in the form of Sato.<br/><br/>The third-year gave a brief greeting to which Kotori gave a bow in return. Just moments later, Ryan too approached the group, lifting a bottle of water to his lips - either the morning sun was already getting to him or he was simply more conscious of the dangers of the midsummer heat than others, Kotori surmised as she greeted the first-year student with a polite bow. Ryan too was the first to break the silence as he asked how everyone was doing. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm...""</font> Kotori started, though catching herself from yawning at the last moment and instead just going with a brief nod - hopefully she'd shake off the lack of sleep as the day carried on.<br/><br/>Seeing as the group was slowly growing in numbers, Rui spoke up to announce that there was still half an hour before their train went - whilst that did mean that they'd have some waiting to do, Kotori did breathe a little easier knowing that there was most likely not going to be any panic about last minute arrivals and possibly missing the train because of it. It was then that Samuru, the latest member to join them, arrived as well, setting off another round of reciprocated greetings - though he did seem a little subdued where it came to both Ryan and Sato for some reason. Yet just as she thought that it was a good thing that everything was well prepared, Sato spoke in her direction about his own lack thereof. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> It took a moment for Kotori to realise that he was, in fact, addressing her; leaving her to blink in surprise before quickly turning to look at her senpai as he asked her for some sunscreen. At his words, Kotori couldn't quite help the faintest of proud smiles crossing her face as she kneeled down to rifle through her bag, quietly murmuring <font color=""green"">""One moment...""</font> as she did.<br/><br/>Indeed it was only a brief moment before she produced a full bottle of sunblock from therein as she was in equal measures happy for it to have not been in vain and also to be of help. <font color=""green"">""Please feel free to use as much as you need, senpai,""</font> Kotori said as she held it out toward Sato. Between the wide-brimmed sun hat and the high protection factor written upon the bottle, it was not hard to guess that she was evidently one of the unfortunate people who were rather susceptible to the sun. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, if... you need anything else... ah, p-please let me know,""</font> Kotori added - even as she noticed half-way through that she could be taken to be asserting the others to be forgetful or even negligent. Between that and the realisation that her words had likely just gotten her the attention of everyone gathered around, however briefly, was sure to leave her gaze to remain fixed on the ground between her sandals for the next few moments - though she was thankful for the fact that while doing so her hat would at least keep some of her embarassment hidden.</div>"

After a brief moment she withdrew a bottle of sunscreen and gave it to Sato, and after being assured he can use as much as needed, he began to apply it to his skin, starting with his arms. <br/><br/>	Sato noticed that Ryan and Samuru had also showed up, and he gave a small wave to both of them, but it was immediately apparent that Samuru was acting a bit cold to them, standing off and avoiding eye-contact with Sato. Was he still upset about what happened in Seto? It wasn't that big of a deal, considering it was Samuru's first time in the mirror world, but Sato decided not to express that again lest he start some kind of drama already. The whole point of the trip was to relax together, not mope over the Mirror World.<br/> <br/>	It struck him that he probably should have waited until he got to the beach to apply it considering he was probably going shirtless to swim and now he'd just have to ask someone for sunscreen again, but whatever. Maybe they wouldn't dive in for a while. ""Thanks, Kotori. I really appreciate it."" He said to her, giving a slight nod, but as he rubbed it into his face, Kotori's next words bugged him. ""What else do I need though? ...Am I forgetting something? Was my mom right...?"" </div>"

Of course, Kanna was unsure if he would fit in with all the talented people that managed to save him, but he knew that he could possibly help in some way, so he simply asked if he could think about it. Unfortunately, even though a week had passed, Kanna still didn't have an answer for Rui. Maybe...maybe he just shouldn't get back with them; they would probably be mad or disappointed that he couldn't return the favor he so graciously received from them. Avoiding the issue would make it worse, but at least he wouldn't have to worry about it at the moment right?<br/><br/>Kanna let out a desperate groan as he drowned his blueberry pancakes in syrup.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""Kanna, dear, what did I tell you about wasting syrup?""</span> Kanna's aunt hummed as she started at him from across the table.<br/><font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""... ... ...hard work...""</span></font> The white haired boy mumbled as he shoved a bit of food in his mouth.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch that?""</span> Her demanding voice causing Kanna's tender morning eardrums to ring.<br/><font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Wasting syrup wastes the syrup fairy's hard work.""</span></font> He droned, forcing himself not to roll his eyes.

So regardless, he would have to see them and let them know if he was joining them or not. Great... Glancing over at the clock hanging on the other side of the wall, he only had about twenty minutes or so to get ready and run to train terminal. But despite his short time span to get ready, Kanna was mostly calm, scarfing downing his pancakes and thanking his aunt for the food. He scrambled up the steps as quickly as possible before entering his previously shared room and shutting the door. Letting out a heavy sigh as he stared at his messy bed and his brother's tidy one, Kanna proceeded to get ready, all the while talking out loud.<br/><font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm going to the beach today, Brother.""</span></font> He mumbled, stripping down. <font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Who would have thought right?

And only arriving with a few minutes to spare from the time Rui had given him. It wasn't until he was a little ways from the platform that Kanna spotted the black haired teen who had reached out him about the trip and his slowly growing group of friends. Originally feeling rather confident about meeting the other Persona users better, the butterflies in the boy's stomach proved otherwise as he stopped in his tracks and hid behind a trash can. Kanna's ghostly figure slowly peered from over the edge of the trash can, unsure of how to approach them without coming off as weird.</div>"

He waved over to the person over there, having recognized who it was. The last time Rui saw him was at the hospital with his usual offer, the boy's name was Kanna Watanabe, whom they had rescued shortly after Samuru's rescue, though his acceptance seemed to require him more thought.<br/><br/>Before the boy could speak however, Shizuka had appeared, and then approached Kanna asking him.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Ah, yeah he is.

Of course he was a bit shy due to how many strangers were coming along with them, but maybe he was little too paranoid, as he had yet to move from Rui's side. He watched quietly as the others interacted with each other, his navy blue eyes never staying too long on one person. They all seemed to know each other for a while, based on how they were interacting, and there were a few that he recognized as upperclassmen from school which made Kanna feel even more out of place.<br/><br/>Kanna rubbed his covered up arm for a moment before looking at Rui.<br/><font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""You think, more people are going to show up, Senpai?""</span></font> Kanna questioned, tilting his head in the process.</div>"

As Sato finished up with the sunblock and thanked her for it, Kotori glanced back up, peering throug her glasses just past the brim of her sunhat. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, y-you're welcome,""</font> she said, more quietly than before - only to then look on in slight confusion when Sato seemed perturbed about something else. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Unsure if he was directing those muttered words at her or himself, Kotori was unsure how to react - but luckily, this decision was taken out of her hands when another familiar voice spoke up.<br/><br/>Kotori was not unpleased that Shizuka unwittingly acted as a distraction. Turning around, she saw her fellow Agriculture Club member waving as she approached and gave a bow in return. <font color=""green"">""Ah, good morning, Otonashi-san,""</font> Kotori said as Shizuka apologised for her belated arrival. Thankfully though it would be of little matter, given that Rui had scheduled the meeting time well in advance of the train's departure. As she explained her reason though, Kotori blinked in slight confusion - before coming to the conclusion that Shizuka's mother was just looking out for her daughter and thus wouldn't want her attracting unwanted attention at the beach. After all, that would be rather embarassing.<br/><br/>As Shizuka went on to present the basket in her hands as full of snacks for the trip, Kotori gave a small smile - she had in fact wondered if she should perhaps prepare something to bring along, but ultimately decided against it. After all, she didn't really know the others' tastes and wouldn't want them having to eat something they didn't like - or worse, pretend to like it. But seeing as Shizuka was evidently more confident in such matters, Kotori was glad to see that no one would have to go hungry. A slight confusion came over Kotori's face when Shizuka turned aside and addressed someone - only now, as she followed the younger girl's gaze, did she too notice the boy by the trashbin.<br/><br/>The first to speak up at Shizuka's question was Rui rather than the boy himself. Rui explained that Kanna was the latest member to join the team, courtesy of being the subject of yet another Mirror World rescue. As her thoughts wandered to that place, Kotori's mood visibly dimmed - but only for a moment before she shook her head and almost succeeded at putting said thoughts aside for the moment. Kanna, having taken the opportunity to approach the group, confirmed Ruis words with his own introduction - albeit a little hesitantly, seeming a little ill at ease. Kotori couldn't blame him - she doubted that she'd be holding up half as well if she had to meet with such a large group of what were essentially strangers if she were in his shoes. As such, she tried her best to be welcoming as she gave a bow: <font color=""green"">""Good morning,""</font> she said, though the accompanying attempt at a smile did not exactly end up quite as encouraging as she may have imagined in her head.<br/><br/>As Rui asked whether everyone was present and accounted for, Kotori looked around the group and counted them off. Without knowing who was expected to still show up, however, this number did her little good. Almost as if in response to Kanna's question, the sound of someone approaching at running speed could be heard - the source of which, as it turned out, was yet another familiar face in the form of Matthew. Seeing both of her fellow club members gathered, even as one apologised for his arrival time between barely caught breaths, brought a small smile to Kotori's face - the strange distance between the two had been a source of worry for quite some time now. <font color=""green"">""Good morning, Harvester-senpai,""</font> she said, giving a bow as she did.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the hint of a smile slowly died down and turned into a far more familiar worried frown when she noticed that both Matthew and Shizuka seemed oddly preoccupied with anything that was not each other.</div>"

Speaking of which, here comes Matthew, he greeted him cordially before they waited for the rest. Though he kept silent, he noticed there was a bit of tension between a few of them, it was an almost sharp contrast to the excitement of everyone else present. Some people had brought equipment of their own too.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""It seems the train is about to arrive... Let's get going""</font>, with that announcement everyone gathered up their things and headed into the terminal.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Sadaomi Beach</div><br/>Saturday<br/>1/8/15</div><br/><br/>The train was a roughly one to two hour ride, not a very long ride, but considering how many people were present for this, they were a very large group. The train ride itself was uneventful save for some idle chatter. As soon as the scenery outside changed though, they could see the northern coast of Japan, and out to the sea. It was a breathtaking view only the open sea to greet them. The shadows on the horizon though was a small reminder that this was indeed the northern coast, as that figure along the horizon was China.<br/><br/>Regardless, upon arriving at the train station just a short stop away Niigata, they got off with the beach a short walk away. Upon arriving they could see there were already foot stands and all sorts of facilities set up, most of which were new.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""This is actually a very new beach, the Nanjo Corporation has been taking strides in urbanizing older areas, this is one of them""</font>, it wasn't apparent to anyone but those who knew what companies were under Nanjo, but those who were familiar would realize that a lot of the buildings and main stores here that weren't small private stores were under the Nanjo conglomerate. Kazuki seemed to be a bit bothered by coming here though, if it was simply him not wanting to go to the beach it should or would usually subside a bit now that he was here, but he seemed to be avoiding looking at the storefronts for too long, or if he did it would be with a rather glum or irate expression.<br/><br/><font color=""magenta"">""Well anyways, I'm gonna go and find us a spot on the beach. I'll let you all know when we've settled, see ya!""</font>, within moments of finishing her little announcement she grabbed Kazuki and dragged him down onto the sands. The beach was new, meaning, there were a lot of people here. Not nearly as much as the southern coasts around Tokyo which were always completely packed, but this place was quite populated.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Huh... Well I guess we'll just take a look around then""</font>, he said, turning to the rest.</div>"

Shizuka and the latest in a series of Persona-users showed up, followed a bit later by an exasperated Matt, who had woken up late, but he decided against trying to talk to them on virtue of waiting for Mako to show up before he really started relaxing. It's not like he wouldn't have a good time if he didn't show, but it'd be good to know how he was gonna spend most of his day. Eventually, though, Sato saw Mako turn the corner around the station terminal, and he gave a wave to him. Sato parted from the group for a moment (which was a bit of a relief, as it seemed a bit awkward with the new kid and whatever was going on between Shizuka and Matt) to run over and greet Mako. <br/> <br/>	""Hey,"" Sato smiled, rubbing the back of his neck. What was he supposed to say...? 'Good to see you' or something? It wasn't like they hadn't seen each other recently or anything. Luckily, their conversation was cut short by the crescendo of the approaching train, the speakers crackling into life to announce that it was in fact the train they were taking to the beach. Sato looked over his shoulder to see Rui announcing to the group that they were going now, so Sato turned back to Mako and gave another weak smile. After a second of consideration, Sato reached out to hold his hand, but upon making contact, he felt like he was some kind of E.T. alien and it felt weird enough in public that Sato withdrew his hands and shoved them in his pockets. Maybe later.<br/><br/>	Regardless, the whole group boarded the train and found a section of seats next to each other. Sato, of course, sat next to Mako, but the whole train ride was uneventful as a whole seeing as everyone was still waking up and there wasn't exactly much to talk about besides how excited they were for the beach. The sights weren't much new for the most part either, until they came out of a tunnel and suddenly the trees disappeared to reveal a stunning open coast. Sato tried to awkwardly lean over Mako, who took the window-seat, to the try to get a better look of it. The weather was absolutely perfect as well, and they could even see the nearby landmass of China in the distance... The view was stunning.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">[. . .]</span></div><br/><br/>	Soon after being greeted by that view, they were let off at a train station only a couple minute walk away from the beach itself.  The train station itself was surprising new, with an untainted appearance and modern design, but Sato figured it was the latest in a long series of urbanization that the area had been going through for the last several years. Kazuki soon explained this very thing to the group, and Sato felt a little smug for having already known this fact, but for some reason Kazuki seemed weirdly bothered by what he told them. Wasn't he a rich kid or something, so did his parents own a company or something that was competing with them...? Sato honestly couldn't really remember if Kazuki had revealed that much about himself, but hey, he went to a ritzy place so it was probably safe to assume.<br/><br/>	Once they got to the actual beach strip, Sato surveyed the area. There were quite a few changing rooms and a long line of stands and shops serving presumably any kind of refreshment you'd crave on a perfect beach day, but it only reminded Sato that he had <span class=""bb-i"">also</span> forgotten to bring any money with him... Maybe Mako would have some? Either way, with Kazuki and Megumi running off to find a good spot to camp out at, the group was left to their own devices to go do whatever. So... Uh. When were they gonna get in the water? That was pretty much why he came in the first place, but Sato guessed they had to get in the mood first or something. Unless someone was gonna make a dead-sprint for the shore, which wouldn't exactly surprise him at this point knowing some of the members of the team...<br/><br/>	""So, what first?"" Sato wondered out loud, still looking over at all the shops. ""Though, I guess some of you guys still need to change into your swimsuits, huh?""</div>"

As they did, Kotori made sure to greet them with a bow whilst counting off the number of companions in her head - even if it wouldn't do her much good without actually knowing how many people were supposed to be showing up in the first place. Still, it gave her at least a momentary lapse from glancing between her fellow Agriculture Club members. Not for the first time, she wished that she knew of some way to let them get along with each other as they had what now felt ages ago. A soundless sigh escaped her lips whilst everyone around her was already busying themselves with smalltalk between each other or gathering their things when the imminent arrival of their train was broadcast.<br/><br/>With her own bag in hand, Kotori boarded the train after most of the others had arrived - she couldn't help but count them off before coming to the satisfactory conclusion that everyone had gotten on - and moved to the first free spot among the seats that the rather large group had occupied. She ultimately found herself seated next to the window with her sunhat placed upon her lap - albeit only after multiple reassurances that it was alright and no one else wanted the seat. As the train pulled away, many of the conversations begun on the platform continued in some form or another - the inclusion of Kotori into which were mostly limited to only answer when directly addressed and otherwise simply listening instead. It wasn't too long though before her thoughts drifted to the book in her hand - which, a mere few minutes later, was instead in her hands with her bespectacled gaze firmly fixed on its pages.<br/><br/>So absorbed in her reading was she that Kotori would have missed the beautiful sight the revealed itself upon clearing the long tunnel, were it not for the many sounds of wonder coming from all around. A slight confusion was unmistakable upon her face as Kotori looked up - only for it to soon match the pleased expressions surrounding her when she followed their eyes out to the wide blue sea. The small smile would remain even for a while longer once her attention was returned to the book some time later.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Sadaomi Beach | Saturday - Morning</span><br/><br/>Stepping onto the platform, Kotori quickly made room to allow the others behind her to exit the train. With everyone accounted for, Kazuki would be the one to lead the way. As he did so, he off-handedly mentioned that the beach and indeed the whole surrounding area was only recently built or renovated. Preoccupied with looking around to confirm his words, Kotori missed the slight disapproval in Kazuki's voice. Thankfully, the beach itself was only a small walk from the station - and upon seeing it, Megumi's enthusiasm from before bubbled up once again as she dragged Kazuki off without even heeding a single word of protest, announcing that she'd make sure to grab a good spot while she did so. Kotori could do naught but blink at the rapidly departing figures - and evidently wasn't the only one, judging by the brief moment of silence that followed.<br/><br/>The first to break it was Rui - who, ever taking things in stride, noted that there was little point in standing around. A murmur of general agreement sounded at his words with Sato speaking up a moment later, asking what would be the exact course of action - before noticing that not everyone had already come wearing their swimwear, quite in opposition to himself. <font color=""green"">""Ah...""</font> It was only then that Kotori remembered that, after all, swimming was indeed the main reason for going to the beach - and that doing so would require appropriate garments. Now that the time was at hand, she couldn't help but feel no small measure of embarassment at the thought of actually wearing her swimsuit, gingerly placing a hand to her chest - before reassuring herself, and not for the first time, that she had after all made sure that it would cover her scars. That was one thing that Kotori was still very much hesitant about.<br/><br/>Shaking her head as if to clear her mind, Kotori quickly glanced between the others from beneath the wide brim of her hat, looking to see where everyone else was headed and, ever the proactive one, simply following along. After all, this was supposed to be a fun trip and as such did not call for gloominess - though such was no easy task, she did her best to give a small smile which did turn out a lot less wry than most of the time when she took in the sight and sounds of the ocean from so close.</div>"

Ryan decided not to point them out, not that he needed to with Shizuka arriving and pointing him out to everyone. <br/><br/>Ryan had to hold back a laugh as Kanna blushed and introduced himself to the group. Rui had filled him in on what his deal was earlier, he had been curious what had happened and Rui saw no need to hold back information. So far Kanna hadn't accepted the offer to join, but everyone did eventually. It was kind of just an inevitable thing for Persona users. That's the impression Ryan got anyways. He vaguely noted that Samuru was avoiding Sato and shook his head, it had been nearly two weeks since the trip into Seto yet Samuru was still feeling awkward. Ryan sighed and shook his head, perhaps they had been too hard on the guy. Hopefully this beach trip was what everyone needed to get closer as a team.<br/><br/>Shizuka explained her reason for lateness, making Ryan blush slightly and look away, that was quite the image. Something he would try very hard to not think about. <font color=""royalblue"">""Your mother probably had the best idea.""</font> She also brought sandwiches and tea, which was very thoughtful of her. He would have to remember to buy her some food in exchange once they got to the beach. He would probably buy everyone food actually, it would make the trip much better. Matt arrived soon after this all transpired, being pretty late but just in time for the train. Matt and Shizuka were visibly avoiding looking at each other, same with Sato and Mako. <font color=""royalblue"">""This is gonna be a weird day...""</font> He muttered to himself as everyone boarded the train.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h2""><div class=""bb-center"">Sadaomi Beach</div></div><br/><br/>The train ride was nice, about two hours of chatting with Sato and Mako, sometimes jumping into others conversations but mainly sticking with them. As they approached the beach Ryan scooted closer to the window, he had never really been to the beach. His mom never had the time while his dad was... As the coast came into view Ryan smiled, it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. They got off a few minutes later and walked to the beach, Kazuki explaining the background behind the beach, with Ryan becoming extra attentive at the mention of the Nanjo Corporation. <font color=""royalblue"">""OH, I know about them! My mom's company does joint projects with them all the time.""</font> He then noticed how uncomfortable Kazuki was and he cringed, probably not the best time to mention that. <br/><br/>Kazuki and Megumi soon left the go find a spot on the beach for everyone, leaving Rui to act as their leader once again. Sato suggested changing into swimsuits and Ryan nodded. <font color=""royalblue"">""Probably a good idea, we brought them for a reason.""</font> Ryan laughed as he headed towards the changing area, finding an empty booth and entering, making sure to lock the door behind him. Didn't want any zany mishaps. He quickly changed into his blue swim trunks and came out, blushing slightly. He had never really shown this much skin before, it was embarrassing. The first thing anyone would note is that Ryan was kinda buff, he had a defined six pack and pretty toned muscles too, not disgustingly ripped but definite muscle definition. If one looked more closely though they would also see signs of faded scars all over his body. Ryan's past was not a happy one. <font color=""royalblue"">""So, what do you do at the beach normally?""</font> He asked everyone, this was his first time and he didn't really get what you did besides swim.</div>"

Speaking of Shizuka, she and Matthew looked like a fine couple...same for Mako and Sato; he had been surpised when he had seen they were an item. He wished them well.<br/><br/>Everyone seemed to be doing fine, especially Rui and the two other...leaders (?) of the group. Pausing to check his beach equipment, Samuru smiled as he saw that yes, he was as prepared as he was back in the old days at Nagasaki, with sunscreen, trunks, tanning lotion, and snacks.

Coming out at the same time as Ryan, Samuru would raise an eyebrow at the scars, but decide not to prod. Instead, in response to Ryan's question, he brought out his sketchbook, and said:<br/><br/>""I sketch; pastels are underrated nowadays. Actually..."" a smile at that; ""want me to sketch you?

My name is Shizuka Otonashi, a first year from Warakuma High. Welcome to our little group!""</font> Looking at how nervous the teen seemed to be, she painfully understood how it felt to be the new member to the group. Would I be of any help? Would they accept me even after witnessing my shadow? All sorts of thoughts wandered through her mind then, it could be a similar situation for him as well.<br/><br/>A familiar voice greeted her in response to which the freshman turned her attention to. It was Kotori, Shizuka's upperclassman and fellow Agriculture Club member. <font color=""violet"">""Glad to see you're going to the trip as well, Shirohane-senpai.""</font> It was reassuring to have someone familiar to go out on a trip with. Speaking of, once she took a moment to survey her surroundings, there were quite a number of familiar faces here and there, to her relief. One of which was Ryan, who commented to her mother's decision against the original swim wear. A confused expression was all the maiden could respond with, was there something questionable with her tastes?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“Sorry…. I'm… late.. Woke up late.”  <span class=""bb-b"">Thump.</span></span> As if her heart was about to leap out of her chest, Shizuka flinched in surprise merely at the sound of <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> voice. Subconsciously, the girl's eyes searched for him upon her arrival and hid the disappointment upon her features when the boy was nowhere in sight. Unable to contain the joy she felt, a slight curve made its way upon her lips with a turn of her head towards the upperclassman's direction. Matt and Shizuka's eyes met for a split second but that was all it took for the two to avert their gazes away from each other with cheeks tainted with a rosy hue. The soft smile of joy grew into a lonely, melancholic smile instead as the group moved towards the train to the beach.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Shizuka Otonashi || Sadaomi Beach || August 1 SAT: Morning</span><br/><br/>Arriving at the beach, people scattered to either scout for a spot upon the sands or to change into their swim wears. The freshman decided to follow the latter idea, seeing the blazing hot sun and the glittering blue waters were more than enough to tempt anyone into splashing into the water. Finding the changing rooms along with the others was an easy task with all the sign boards leading to them. Taking a good couple of minutes to get changed, Shizuka emerged from the changing rooms with a pure white bikini top adorned by a ribbon at the center and a colorful tropical skirt that covered her lower bikini piece until it was the appropriate time to swim. It took more time to cover her skin in sun block lotion as the sun seemed bright enough to sun burn anyone in a matter of few hours.<br/><br/>Walking along the shore with a parasol to block the rays of the sun, Shizuka started towards the group not too far off from where she was.</div>"

It had been a long, long time since he'd come to the beach. Not since... well. Since the last time he'd been in Tokyo, at least. Sosuke had taken him and Haku while his parents sorted something out, or whatever it was they were really doing. He shook off the unhappy memories. He was here, and this was now- he didn't need to stay wrapped up in the past anymore. Not when he had so much to look forward to here. He looked over at Sato, a small smile gracing his lips as he let his eyes wander over him. <br/><br/>It was refreshing, not to have to hide his interests among his... friends? Friends seemed appropriate. They weren't merely associates or acquaintances, after all. Not after what they'd seen and done together. Pondering that fact momentarily- when was the last time he even had friends- he adjusted his bag over his shoulder. While he was already wearing his dark-grey-and-blue swim jammers (with a matching tank top), he still had a change of clothes with him, so he wouldn't have to walk around in wet clothing all day. He then noticed that Sato seemed... under-equipped for this venture. Hm. He'd have to see what he could do to help with that- he had a decent amount of money from various odd jobs he'd taken here or there.<br/><br/>A few people seemed to wonder what it was one did at the beach- Ryan flat-out saying so- so Mako felt inclined to speak up.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Well, swimsuits plus water is kind of a no-brainer. I haven't been to the ocean since I was a kid, so hopefully I'm not too rusty in the swimming department. Apart from that, there's refreshments- shaved ice and such. Oh, but remember to wear sunscreen! And keep reapplying it every so often! Come on,""</font> said Mako, grabbing Sato's hand quickly and deliberately, starting to drag him over to the changing rooms. <font color=""#0076a3"">""I have some sunscreen if you need it. And then, shaved ice!""</font><br/><br/>As they walked, Mako felt Sato's hand squirming in his, as though trying to escape, like earlier. <font color=""#0076a3""><span class=""bb-i"">Um... no.

I'm not ashamed of this. And neither should you be. We've been through, and will yet go through, worse than this. This?""</font> he said, raising their laced fingers to eye level, <font color=""#0076a3"">""This makes me feel safe. It makes me comfortable. And I hope it does for you, too, at least a little. If it doesn't, then we'll stop for now, but...""</font><br/><br/>Here, Mako looked back at their friends, then off to the sides of the relatively-empty strip (most people were already down at the beach by this time). Then, quick as can be, he pressed a quick kiss to Sato's lips, before leaning up to his ear.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""I kinda like just being able to hold my boyfriend's hand,""</font> he said, face burning. He backed away, uncaring of the few curious or awkward glances being thrown their way. He'd been hiding for long enough- he would never do so again. He started walking forward, tugging Sato along with him. To his credit, he had stopped trying to escape.<br/><br/><font color=""#0076a3"">""Now. Let's go get ourselves a treat- I'm buying.

Sato stared out at the sea, lost in thought about what he was going to do today, until Mako suddenly grabbed his hand and started pulling him towards the changing rooms, where surprisingly few people were out by. Sato tried to break free, but Mako's grip seemed to be a lot stronger than he thought it'd be. Instead, Mako interlocked their fingers and held on tighter. He looked up at Mako, trying to convey his sense of panic. ""Mako, I don't--..."" A burning sensation ran through his face, but at least it could be explained as already burning from the heat.<br/><br/>	Mako started talking, though, not letting go. It's not like Sato didn't want to hold Mako's hand, to be <span class=""bb-i"">together</span>, it's just... He wasn't an idiot. He knew what people thought. Sure, maybe most of them wouldn't say anything, but there was always the chance. There was always the possibility. And it scared him, like it always had. The chance of people not accepting him, so he'd always just did what they wanted like some puppet of fate... but what was the point? Wasn't that why he stood up against his own shadow, why everyone fought for their lives just to save him? He was really just backing out of that resolve he'd made back then by letting other people dictate who he was allowed to be.<br/><br/>	Except he didn't say any of that, and instead he just let Mako pull close and kiss him. It was short and sweet, but that was all it really had to be. After, he said something that, before he joined the team, he would have he never thought he'd say out loud. ""Mako, I... love you."" Sato looked into Mako's eyes to see if he'd make time stop and they could enjoy the moment forever, but it was cut short when Sato found himself laughing at what he'd said. ""Can I say that already? It isn't too soon, is it? Whatever, I guess I'll just take that chance."" He gave a warm smile to Mako, letting their hands fall loosely down, together. He sighed. ""Let's just enjoy the day and leave all this stupid stuff for another time.""<br/><br/>	Without saying anything else, Sato started pulling Mako (by the hand!) away to the small boulevard of shops that were nearby, intent on taking Mako up on his offer. Soon enough, though, they found a good place to buy shaved ice, and Sato went up to the counter. ""Two shaved ice, please. Strawberry for me."" He looked back at Mako. ""You, uh, got the money, right?"" Well, he said they did, so he better. Once Mako paid the teen that was working the stand, the two started walking back towards the beach. Unsure of what to say while eating ice, Sato scanned his brain for some kind of trivia. ""Did you know that the flavors of shaved ice are all just sugar water that smells different? At least, that's what I heard."" <br/><br/>	By the time they managed to get back to where the group had established a spot for everyone with a couple umbrellas, Matt was already running towards the ocean, except, as he was running, he turned to the side. Presumably, he saw Shizuka coming out of the changing room looked stunning as usual, but apparently she was <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> stunning and Matt absolutely biffed it. The sight was comical enough, Matt laying face-first in the sand, that Sato couldn't help but burst out laughing. Genuine laughter. He looked over at Mako, with a tear in his eye. He didn't say anything in particular, but he just wanted to.</div>"

A few of them had been recognizable from school, like the gorgeous Shizuka Otonashi, but most seemed like upperclassmen. They...they were nice enough. It was very clear that a few of them were distant with each other, and it might have been some internal conflict, so Kanna kept his comments about that to himself; if they wanted to tell him, he would always be all ears.<br/><br/>Snapping out of his thoughts at the sound of Rui's voice, Kanna nodded quickly and followed the others into the train, being sure to take a seat on the outer side of the group. He was still a little uncomfortable with getting in the middle of their already strong friendships, so keeping his distance felt like the best choice.<br/><br/>The ride itself was rather long, as Kanna could feel himself dozing off by the passing minute. However the sounds of the others in the group kept him from complete falling asleep, each of their conversations blending into a symphony of various sounds. That coupled with the beautiful sight of the nearby sea and horizon, Kanna was impressed. So impressed that he pulled out his brother's photo and pushed onto the window with his finger, grinning all the while.<br/><br/>Upon arriving, Kanna was the first to hop, yes hop, off the train and onto the platform. It was a rather short walk to the beach from where they were, but the heat seemed to be battling against us. Letting out a quiet groan, Kanna forced his fluffy hair under his hood, in hopes to save his pale complexion from the monster of a sun up above. And in no time, they made it. The boy could tell just from where they were standing, that there were a lot of people around, which also meant that it would be easy to get lost. With his short stature and mostly quiet presence, Kanna took the time to memorize the faces of everyone he came with, even the two that left to go and find them a spot on the beach; he would definitely need it.<br/><br/>Complete lost in though, Kanna just managed to pick up what was happening. One of them had asked about getting changed, which made sense. Kanna, being just a little nervous about everything, put his trunks on at home so that he wouldn't run into this problem. All he would have to do was unzip his jacket if he wanted to swim.<br/><br/>Taking a few minutes to get everyone into their swimwear, one of the guys that had gone in there earlier questioned about what to do at the beach. At this question, Kanna couldn't help but perk up a bit.<br/><font color=""darkblue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Swimming, sandcastles, boogie-boarding, sunbathing, relaxing..""</span></font> The teen began listing off some of the things he would do when he use to come to the beach. By the time he had listed off all of his fingers trice, the group had situated themselves on the beach, followed by one of the group members tripping over nothing and falling to the ground. Well...he couldn't really blame him since he was looking directing at Shizuka before doing so. Most would kill for a sight like that. Heck, it was what most of his friends talked about when they were suppose to be working.</div>"

After he said this Matt pulled a beach ball out out of his bag and laughed as he simply said they could play ball in the water. Wouldn't it be playing ball on the- and he tripped over nothing and fell flat on his face. An awkward silence passed as Ryan contemplated whether or not he should help Matt up. Eventually his better nature gave in and he walked over to the fallen upperclassman. <font color=""royalblue"">""Let me help you up senpai.""</font> <br/><br/>After that whole debacle Mako and Sato walked off holding each other's hand, looking to go get shaved ice together. Ryan smiled at the two, good for them.

This group really was an anime-style Nakama, and he felt himself growing closer to them. Maybe he had jumped the gun when he had assumed they all disliked him. Drawing closer to Kanna, the young man would say:<br/><br/>""Greetings. Kanna, right? My name is Samuru Amakusa; I wasn't there for when the others 'recruited' you. How are you and how are you holding up?"" Samuru then, on impulse, began sketching the clear blue sea, as well as the sky above. He then smiled as he began to work his pastels. ""It's so nice to see the others happy.""<br/><br/>A mischevious smile on his face, before the young man whispered, ""Say, want to go see what Rui is doing?

Seeing as most had yet to don their swimsuits, this seemed to be the first port of call - including Kotori, who followed the others toward the changing rooms with her bag clutched in both hands and quickly shuffling into the girls' area before giving a small wave to Shizuka as they split up into separate changing rooms. As she got changed, Kotori couldn't help her thoughts straying back to her previous worries - but just as before, she shook them away and continued on.<br/><br/>A little while later, and just in time to miss a certain mishap involving tripping, Kotori stepped out of the changing room and back into the sun, feeling the ground change from concrete to sand beneath her sandals as she did. One hand rested on the sunhat still perched upon her head to keep it from accidentally blowing away in the gentle breeze that greeted her whilst the other rested on the strap of her bag that she'd slung over her shoulder. For a brief moment, she squinted behind her glasses when she left the shade provided by the changing area behind and looked around to see that the others had already finished changing and were discussing what they wanted to do first. Glancing between them, Kotori felt a slight warmth spreading across her face - a feeling she tried to fight. Of course, it was a losing proposition from the start and as such she quickly resigned herself to instead hide her face beneath the brim of her hat that she pulled further down.<br/><br/>In the brief moments, however, she did get a brief look at what everyone else was wearing - which bridged a wide gamut from sporty, such as Samuru, to the quite fashionable Shizuka. Still, Kotori did at least feel a small measure of relief when she caught a glimpse of the newest addition to the group - as it meant she wasn't the only one who was wearing something over her swimsuit. Kanna was wearing his jacket in order to protect himself from the sun - which was much the same reason for which Kotori had packed hers. At least, that's what she'd told herself - but in truth, she'd already known that she'd probably feel too embarrassed about the thought of herself being seen wearing so little. Even if her own swimsuit would hardly pass anyone's definition of daring, Kotori just couldn't quite bring up the self-confidence to join the others without covering herself with her thin summer jacket.<br/><br/>With her gaze still down-turned, Kotori adjusted her bag's strap to rest a little more comfortably against the pale yellow fabric of her jacket that was broken up by a floral pattern in various shades of red, blue and green - perhaps not something out of a fashion magazine, but Kotori still liked it nonetheless. But though she might not be looking at the others again just yet, Kotori could hear them talking - or rather whispering, as she found herself not too far from where Samuru was conspiring with Kanna. She didn't quite catch everything being said - but even despite feeling a little guilty at what she realised might constitute eavesdropping, she managed to gather that they, or at least one of them, were planning something with Rui.<br/><br/>It was only when they mentioned his name that Kotori realised that she hadn't actually seen him out on the beach - or Kazuki and Megumi, for that matter. Raising her hat ever so slightly, Kotori hesitantly peered out across the beach in a quick search for the two Shoujin students or Rui.</div>"

It was a bit weird, to be honest, as since he only had a small connection with Rui for the most part, asking if he could join one of their little groups might make things awkward for everyone; Kanna definitely didn't want that. <br/><br/>Unaware that one of them was quietly approaching him, while other was about to begin some unintentional eavesdropping, Kanna flinched, looking up at the former with a tilted head. Dark hair and steel colored eyes, two traits that Kanna knew he couldn't forget. He said his name was Samuru Amakusa huh...an upperclassmen possibly?<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""A-Ah, hello Amakusa-senpai, i-its a pleasure to meet you!""</span></font> He originally began, giving the other a slight bow before straightening. <font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Oh, I'm okay. Thanks for asking. I've been through a lot worse so, I sure I-I can get through this.""</span></font> While he said this, the boy couldn't help but have few doubts, these doubts clearly showing on his face. Of course he was nervous about what the others thought about him, after hearing about his brother and what made into how he is today, but he still couldn't out right say it. It was pathetic...<br/><br/>Lowering his head at the fact that he couldn't be completely honest, Kanna caught sight of Samuru drawing what appeared to be a sky and a crystal blue sea. Navy blue eyes lit up almost immediately as he couldn't help but clap his hands together in awe.<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Wh-Whoa...you can draw? That's so neat! And it looks almost like the real thing!""</span></font> Kanna smiled widely, his eyes practically sparkling at the talent in front of him. He appeared to be much more relaxed as well. He nodded quickly in agreement, his eyes never leaving the sketch in Samuru's hands. <font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Y-Yeah, I don't know them that much, but it's always nice to see people when they're happy.""</span></font> He voiced, before looking back up at the other male.<br/><br/>When Samuru put a rather mischievous smile on, Kanna couldn't help but lean in a bit, understanding full well that he was about to get some dirt on something or someone. Hearing that the other wanted to see what Rui was up to, Kanna could only arch his eyebrows. Although he hasn't known him for long, Rui did seem like the type of person to show less than what he knows. And plus, it would be fun to having an adventure on the beach!<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""O-Okay! Sounds like fun!""</span></font> He said while nodding eagerly; it was clear that he had already grown fond of his senpai.</div>"

Now to try and not flub this up with social anxiety born from long years of hiding who he really was. ""In response to what you said about what you've been through; we've all undergone a lot; that's what we all have in common. Not to say we're all friends or anything; I'm...inexperienced at friendship and I'm also a newbie at that, but we all get along so far. We are not a true Nakama yet, and we probably will go our seperate ways once this is over, but we're united to find out the mystery behind this whole affair."" He tilted his head slightly away. ""Or at least, that's the ideal state.""<br/><br/>""But I'm getting ahead of myself; let's go seek out Rui."" And with that, a few pastel-strokes finished the average-quality picture of the blue sky, sea, and shore, and Samuru got up to look for Rui, gesturing to Kanna to follow him.<br/><br/>He would slowly backtrack to where they had last seen the high schooler; the shops closest to the train station. As he did so, carefully making sure Kanna wasn't far behind, Samuru would have an idle thought: <span class=""bb-i"">We really aren't a Nakama, more a loose coalition.</span> <br/><br/>The components of the coalition were Rui and his two friends, Megumi and Kazuki. This triumvirate was the nucleus that kept everyone together. Next were the romantic pairings; Mako and Sato - those two were braver than he was - and Shizuka and Matthew. There was also Kotori and another girl, that bloodthirsty chick who had helped fight his Shadow. Then came Ryan Chideta, the introverted outlier whose bond with the others wasn't as deep as Rui and the nucleus, and now, him and Kanna, the two newbies among newbies. <span class=""bb-i"">Do not forget the ones we keep shedding along the way; the ones who keep vanishing into the ether after a while.</span><br/><br/>Snapping out of his thoughts, Samuru looked around for Rui once more, before turning to Kanna; hopefully, the two would be relatively alone. He would then say, ""Kanna, I have to tell you something. Something that might be useful in preparing you for the danger to come, and something that provides another reason for us to come to Rui, get to know him better, and thank him with a gift.""<br/><br/>He then continued, ""The Star of the Tarot and The Heirophant; those are our cards. The Star symbolizes hope, renewal, and spirituality and the reverse stands for despair, discouragement, and loss of faith. The Heirophant, meanwhile, embodies religion, group identification, conformity, tradition and beliefs. Some of those are ugly things, but counterbalanced by the reverse, which stands for overcoming restrictions and questioning how things are.""<br/><br/>Samuru looked around even more, fear entering his expression. He had to choose his next words carefully, ""And how things are right now...they aren't bad, but I have cause to fear. As I said before, we are not a true Nakama yet. And there are people who were rescued, joined us, and then vanished into thin air. We might be mistaken for that; we might even really <span class=""bb-i"">be</span> that. But point is, we're not truly accepted. Not merely that but - and I hope not to be accused of treason for this - we are not all one unit. We aren't as 'deep' as we could be."" He then clasped his right fist to his chest, a gesture of affirmation, and continued, ""And I want to change that. In fact, instead of moaning, I will <span class=""bb-i"">prove</span> that group identity can be a good thing as well.""<br/><br/>A smile. ""And, to be honest, I will need Rui for that, and also you. So do not vanish, Kanna-kun.""<br/><br/>And with that, Samuru headed back to the changing stations, confident that no one had heard his mini-speech. There, he might find Rui, who perhaps had not have left the place at all. Waving his hand at the younger but wiser student, Samuru would say: ""Hello, Rui-san; a moment of your time? Basically, we'd like to ask; are you doing anything? If so, can we join in?"" He smiled widely.<br/><br/>""I've also been thinking that we should have a mini-party; we're here for a day or two, right? What about having the party be the climax of that? With cake slices and ice cream and pasta and sushi and seaweed dishes; if they have any."" He then thought that Rui and his friends may have planned that already. ""But it's okay if we weren't the first ones to think about it."" He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.<br/><br/>""Seriously, though, something to bind all of us together would be great. Oh, and perhaps a gift exchange?""<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sho-minazuki"">@Sho Minazuki</a><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/tenma-tendo"">@Tenma Tendo</a><br/></div>"

Glancing about, Kotori saw Rui stepping out from the changing room, the final one to join the others in his own beach-wear. With everyone thus accounted for, Kotori's attention turned back to the beach that stretched out before them as she peered out from beneath the rather low-held brim of her sunhat in search of the two Shoujin High students that had gone off to find a suitable spot to put down the bags. Shifting the strap slung over her shoulder, Kotori wasn't exactly opposed to no longer having to actually carry her around.<br/><br/>Incidentally, she soon spotted at least one of them - a sight which furrowed her brow in slight confusion when she realised that Kazuki was both going at a rather speedy pace and, judging by his breathing, had been doing so - or more - for quite a distance. As he drew closer, he only now seemed to actually spot the group strewn about the immediate vicinity of the changing rooms - and seemed a little preoccupied as he pointed to where he'd just come from, letting them know that Megumi and he had indeed found a good place before heading on with no break in his pace. The confusion on Kotori's face was not hard to read - at least, if one stood close enough to see beneath her hat - as her eyes followed Kazuki on his way onward for a few moments more. After that, she shook her head briefly and decided to simply take him by his word and assume that he was just hungry, rather than suspect some strange ongoings to have taken place.<br/><br/>Either way, the fact that there would be somewhere to keep their bags was not an unwelcome one - and Kotori turned to head in the direction that Kazuki had pointed; finding herself to not be the only one doing so when Rui too began walking. However, before she got more than a few steps, Kotori looked back when she realised that perhaps not everyone had actually heard the brief exchange or noticed Kazuki's return and subsequent departure. Samuru and Kanna had surely been right there, so Kotori's gaze turned to the others - but skipped over both Sato and Mako as well as Shizuka and Matt when she realised how awkward she'd feel if she walked up to them and perhaps interrupted either par's time on the beach. She still couldn't help an inaudible sigh escaping her lips when she realised that it was much the same reason that she hadn't been really been able to do anything to help the latter couple return to the more light-hearted mood that they'd been just a few weeks ago.<br/><br/>However, once she cleared that thought from her mind too, there was still one member of the group unaccounted for, Kotori realised. Sitting a little ways off, Ryan was evidently already enjoying the feel of the ocean lapping at his feet - but in doing so, Kotori wasn't sure if he'd heard that they were going to head on over to the spot that Megumi was occupying by herself now. Glancing back to Rui, who was going ahead already, Kotori stopped in her tracks - and then headed back, walking up to the younger boy. It was only once she got closer though that it occurred to her that she hadn't really spoken much to him before - or, as she noticed upon looking past her sunhat, seen him without anything covering the telltale discolorations of scars, faded though they may be.<br/><br/>Kotori's steps faltered at the sight as she brought a hand to her own chest - though she couldn't help her curiosity being piqued, the topic of scars and how one might have gotten them was not a topic she would want to be approached about. As such, she afforded him much the same courtesy - even if she felt some measure of sympathy, given that Ryan did not have the fortune of being able to hide his own scars.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... Chideta-san?""</font> Kotori said, her voice as quiet as ever as she quickly glanced back to make sure she didn't lose sight of the others as they went on ahead. <font color=""green"">""S-sorry to bother you, but, uhm, M-Morinaka-san just came by, so...""</font> she said, her voice trailing off with every word, whilst keeping her eyes firmly on the ground somewhere in front of her; only hesitantly looking up to see if Ryan had even heard her - and then making a vague gesture toward where Rui and the others were heading in order to finish her sentence. She remained standing somewhat awkwardly for a moment, glancing between them and Ryan as she waited for a response - before then turning to follow the others to wherever it was that Megumi was waiting, albeit at a slight distance.</div>"

It was definitely reassuring to see that he wasn't alone on this, but in truth, it was scary to even think about what the others thought of you. Kanna couldn't help but tilt his head to the side when the older male stated that the whole group wasn't necessarily friends. From what he saw, they looked pretty close; a little separated into their own groups, but still close nonetheless? Could it have been a facade because he was here? Or could something had happened that made them more separate? Kanna might never know... The boy could only nod slowly at Samuru's statements as his own thoughts remained conflicted.<br/><br/>As the search for Rui began, Kanna hopped up almost immediately, a smile returning to his face; he had already been infatuated with the other since he and a few others saved him, so it was only natural that he would be excited to see him again. Kanna tried his best to stay beside Samuru, as he didn't want to get lost, noticing that they were backtracking to where they last saw Rui. There were times where the white haired boy ended up behind the other male, mostly due to crowds and such (heck he kept a hand on Samuru's arm from time to time to avoid losing sight of him completely), but fortunately they remained relatively close.<br/><br/>It was only after a couple minutes of searching that Kanna noted that they were almost completely alone.<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""U-Um...I don't think Shinichi-senpai is here...""</span></font> He mumbled, rubbing his sleeve covered arms softly. When Samuru suddenly turned around to look at him, the boy flinched, stopping as well to look up at him. He said...he said he had some things to tell him him. And for some reason, Kanna felt nervous as to what he had to say. <font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""...O-Okay...""</span></font> He said slowly, tilting his head curiously as he gave the older male his full attention.<br/><br/>Kanna couldn't help but arch his eyebrows at the mere mention of his card. Within his slightly dazed state after defeating his shadow, Kanna did remember Rui bring up something about stars, but he couldn't remember what exactly. Listening on, the boy couldn't help but think that the card represented him exactly. But as for Samuru, he didn't know the other enough to say if his stuck or not. Nonetheless, Kanna nodded slowly to show that he was listening intently. As Samuru continued to talk, Kanna couldn't help but see and feel the fear laced in his body language and words. Once again, he mentioned how they weren't really friends, but just acquaintances that share a common cause, there were plenty before him that left, and that they, including him, weren't truly accepted.<br/><br/>It scared Kanna to be honest, learning that those around him probably wouldn't accept him as easily as he assumed. It made him want to leave. Made him want to cry. Made him wish even more that his brother was here...it felt almost similar to the government knowing secrets about you life and claiming to be your 'friend', but in actuality, it just a common goal of keeping everyone safe that makes them act the way they do.<br/><br/>Kanna lowered his head slightly, almost sure that he didn't want to hear anymore of what Samuru had to say. That is, until said teen raised a clasped hand to his fist in affirmation, claiming that he wanted to prove his own words, his own beliefs, wrong. A smile smile formed on Kanna's face as he looked back up and nodded quickly.<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""I promise! No m-matter what, I won't vanish!""</span></font> He confirmed, balling his hands into fists as well.<br/><br/>Making their way back to the changing stations, the two boys had finally found their target.<br/><font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hello, Shinichi-senpai!""</span></font> Kanna chimed in, before letting Samuru take the lead on the conversation. He listened quietly, nodding in agreement when he had to and smiling sweetly when Samuru asked for anything. And with a confirmation of Rui saying they could have a party, the white haired boy jumped up while throwing his hands up in the air, a sign of happiness by most. Seeing that Rui was heading off to put his stuff down, Kanna pointed at him, jumping up and down in the process. <font color=""blue""><span class=""bb-b"">""Come on, come on, let's follow him!""</span></font> He said as he was already off to catch up with the other male.</div>"

No, time to focus on the 'spot' prepared for the gang.<br/><br/>""Yeah, let's get going; I can't wait to see what has been set up,"" he ended up saying. A slight smile; he was now opening up.

He wasn't the main character certainly, that was probably someone like Rui or maybe Sato, but he was certainly an interesting side character. Maybe one of the stronger ones? Suddenly Kotori's voice shook him from his inner thoughts, asking if he had heard about Megumi.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">""Oh, thanks Shirohane-san.""</font> Ryan got up and dusted off his pants of any sand that was stuck, following Kotori who was in turn following Rui.

As she turned to follow Rui, she glanced back to also see Ryan lift himself out of the sand - and then looking about to make sure that no one else would find themselves missing everyone else. Samuru and Kanna were already heading in the same direction - which still left two pairs. Kotori spotted Mako and Sato a little ways off, the two having returned from a brief icecream-laden trip unbeknownst to her. She was a little torn between not wanting to interrupt anything and not wanting to leave anyone behind and thus gave a half-hearted wave which she hoped would yet simultaneously would not catch the attention of either of the two in order to direct toward the same place everyone else was already heading.<br/><br/>Once that was done, Kotori glanced about in search of the final two members of the group - and soon enough spotted both Shizuka and Matt; neither too far off. Still, even at a distance Kotori could feel the odd awkwardness that had been haunting them; unknowingly slowing her steps as a small frown appeared on her face. The wave she gave the two was even less spirited than the one that had been directed at the two boys - even as she tried to hide her unhappiness at seeing her two clubmates unhappy in turn with a smile that , at a distance, would hopefully not like quite as wry as it was.<br/><br/>With her own worries over anyone in the group losing sight of one another thus assuaged, Kotori turned her gaze forward once more. An inaudible sigh escaped her lips even as she adjusted her glasses that were resting just a little bit out of their most comfortable resting place from the constant looking about. She'd lost count how often she tried to tell herself not to worry too much about Shizuka and Matt since having asked Rui for advice on the topic - hypothetically, of course. Lifting her head slightly so that she could peek out from beneath the brim of her sunhat, she saw him a bit further ahead - as ever leading the whole group, even if, thankfully, it was merely to a particular spot on the beach rather than the unknown depth of the Mirror World. Either way, he never seemed to run out of confidence, Kotori mused.<br/><br/>Any further thoughts though were quickly interrupted when she noticed that Rui was greeting someone a little up ahead - who turned out to be Megumi, standing all alone in the shade of a few rocks. She seemed a little bit miffed as she stood there with her arms crossed, seemingly muttering to herself before noticing the new arrivals. Unfortunately, Kotori was just a bit too far away to catch Megumi's words before she had already turned to greet Rui and everyone else as they arrived after him. As Kotori drew closer, she gave a quick bow in greeting to Megumi, even though they'd only been separated for a few minutes, before turning to look about the immediate vicinity.<br/><br/>Indeed, it was quite a nice spot - the shade provided by the rocks alleviated her worries about getting too sunburnt even in spit of her various precautions. Meanwhile, they weren't too far off from the water which was lapping at the beach in lazy waves - the ocean looked rather inviting indeed. Of course, no part of the beach was particularly secluded in this weather - and as she looked around, Kotori could see multiple other people, whether alone or in groups, having set up as well. Some had simply spread out a towel whilst other had brought or rented sunchairs and beach umbrellas. Not too far off, she could even see a small group of teenagers engaging in a game of beach volleyball on a makeshift court.<br/><br/>Rui's voice drew Kotori out of her inspections as he reminded those present that they could get changed if they still needed to - a sentiment which prompted Kotori to look down at herself and the light summer jacket she was wearing over her swimsuit - and that they could decide on what to do once everyone was ready. For a moment she contemplated whether she really needed to wear the pale yellow jacket - but quickly decided to keep it on for the moment, seeing as she was going to be waiting here until everyone was ready; nodding to herself briefly as she convinced herself that she'd need the jacket just in case the wind suddenly picked up or the shade was unusually cool as she slid her beach bag off of her shoulder.<br/><br/>Seeing as there was still a little while to wait, Kotori reached into the bag to retrieve a simple white towel and spread it out in the shade provided by the rocks before - with at least a small measure of relief - taking a seat thereupon; glad to take a moment's rest after the short walk with the bag on her shoulder. <font color=""green"">""Ah"",</font> she said as she peeked back into the bag, <font color=""green"">""Uhm, if anyone needs a spare towel... o-or some sunblock...""</font> Her voice grew ever more quiet as she produced the items in question from the bag - and in turn drew the attention of anyone who'd actually heard her. For a moment, she remained seated on her own towel, somewhat awkwardly holding the spares in hand - before quickly stashing them away.<br/><br/>However, Kotori's empty hands only remained still for a few seconds before she found herself playing with the hem of her jacket whilst she glanced about from beneath the sunhat that still rested atop her head even in the shade. Knowing that she probably wouldn't be able to calm her fingers if she didn't find some sort of occupation, Kotori reached back into her beach bag - before withdrawing the book that she'd already started reading the train ride here. Looking up once more, she made sure that she wouldn't accidentally appear to be ignoring anyone approaching - before opening the book the page where she'e left off before; intent on continuing her reading - at least until everyone else had arrived and gotten themselves ready.</div>"

Despite how hot it was outside and that he was also wearing a hoodie, Kanna felt a little cold. He did manage to put on a brave face in front of the dark haired teen, but there was definitely strain hidden under the shaded features his hoodie graced him with. Samuru was being nice and patient with him, but he flat out said that they weren't really friends. It was heartbreaking to say the least, and made the boy honestly want to cry, but he knew that if he did that, it would probably only guilt trip Samuru into lying to make him feel better. Kanna couldn't help but feel a little alone at this point. He was at the beach, with mostly strangers, if not acquaintances, that he could barely even talk to without stuttering or shying away...he felt so alone.<br/><br/>Kanna placed his hands into his pockets and slowed down to a steady walk once he was close enough, fiddling with his brother's picture in his...Kanna came to stop, sliding under the shade for a quick second to give his skin a break...or at least, that's what he made himself think to hide the panic that the picture that he was almost positive he left in his hoodie pocket mere minutes ago was now gone. Kanna felt like he was about to physically be sick. His hands started to shake and he could hear his heart beating in his ears.<br/><br/>He almost didn't notice Kotori taking a spot in the shade near him, as he was checking his pockets three times over. Nothing...nothing. Nothing... It was only when the older girl spoke up, that Kanna physically flinched and lowered his head. Geez, why did he always get like this? Kotori isn't scary...she's nice...she's nice...she's...n-nice. Kanna took a deep breath and shook his head before looking around where he was sitting. Nothing again. Kanna was once the verge of a panic attack as he started to scratch his arms under his sleeves. It wasn't like he could ask any of them for help either after what Samuru told him, so what?<br/><br/>Wh-Where could it be?<br/><br/>What should he do?<br/><br/>Kanna drew a complete blank until Samuru's voice cut through his hazy mind, causing him to look up so fast, he could have snapped his neck off if he put any more force into it. The other wanted to know how he was feeling, huh...he was apologetic for scaring him, huh...while the apology was very sweet, Kanna wasn't in the right mindset to speak rationally about anything. So instead of answering the dark haired male, Kanna's eyes went back to Kotori of all people, hoping she could help him, before lowering his head and pulling his knees up to rest his head on them. He didn't want to appear rude to Samuru, but he had no idea how to ask for help from those that might never be his friends...</div>"

He certainly seemed to warm up to everyone a lot quicker than she'd done back when she'd first become part of the group - which was a good thing, as she didn't wish that awkward discomfort upon anyone else. Rui, of course, took things in his stride - but the same couldn't quite be said for Kanna, Kotori noticed when the younger boy briefly flinched as she addressed anyone in earshot - which wasn't very far, considering how quiet her voice was - to offer a towel or sun-block should they need it.<br/><br/>Not having meant to bother anyone, Kotori quickly thought whether she should apologise - or if speaking up would just be even more annoying. It was only after a moment of inconclusive internal debate that she would glance over to Kanna - and then notice how suddenly his eyes would latch onto Samuru when the older boy quietly addressed him. Trying not to pry, Kotori was just about to look away - when Kanna, instead of answering, turned his eyes over to her. A silent moment passed - and then he turned to instead put place his head upon his closely-held knees; a rather dejected sight that made Kotori blink in confusion. With no idea what was going on, Kotori in turned glanced between Kanna and Samuru - unbeknownst to her, in much the same dilemma of not knowing what to say or do as one of the other two.<br/><br/>As she did so, Kotori briefly wondered about the cause for such a thing - it didn't seem like something that someone who was comfortable would be doing. Was he perhaps feeling anxious about going to someplace away from home with a bunch of people whom he didn't know very well? Or did he maybe just realise that his holiday homework was still waiting for him at home? Whatever the reason, Kotori realised that in such a mood, he'd probably not be enjoying this first outing with the whole group - which, after all, was the entire point of them coming to the beach. Thinking back to the first few times she'd been with the others - even if the occasion had been visits to the Mirror World rather than the beach - they'd always made her feel welcome, even if she'd doubted just how much she'd be able to help them in turn.<br/><br/>That thought finally motivated Kotori to speak up: <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Of course, that didn't exactly translate into her knowing what to say in such a moment - but at least she didn't stay completely quiet as she thought on that. <font color=""green"">""Is... is everything okay?""</font> she asked, a tinge of worry audbile in her voice that was as quiet as ever, as she peered through her glasses over at the wistful-looking Kanna; even as she realised that she probably wasn't doing much of a good job at cheering anyone up with just such a simple question.</div>"

Between their various bright colours and obvious water reserves, it quickly became clear that the pile consisted entirely of water guns - albeit in all sorts of shapes and sizes; ranging from pistols to some that looked like they weighed a hefty load even though they were made of light-weight plastic. Kotori wondered just when and where Rui had managed to gather all the aqueous arms - until a voice beside her reminded her of the fact that there was another matter that was demanding her attention.<br/><br/>As Samuru and Ryan picked their watery weapons of choice and ascertained allegiances for what was undoubtedly about to transpire, Kotori's eyes turned back to Kanna - and blinked in surprise when she saw that he was leaning in a little bit; his voice a lowered as he began to speak. At first, she felt a measure of sympathy for the younger boy as he stumbled over his words - but the sympathy soon turned to concern when she realised that, unlike her own lack of confidence, the reason for his stammering was all the more distressing as he explained that he had lost something very important.<br/><br/>Just speaking about it seemed to be making him even more miserable - his rapid blinking doing little to mask the fact that he was on the verge of crying as he revealed that the object in question was: a picture of his brother. After saying this, Kanna's wistful gaze shifted to the rest of the group, their excitement a sharp contrast to the rather sombre mood that had developed - but Kotori herself instead glanced back to her bag. At that moment, she could knew quite well what Kanna was feeling - she imagined that she would be quite the same if she lost the small silver pendant that she usually kept on her but had left in her bag when she got changed for the beach.<br/><br/>Kanna, meanwhile, seemed to shrink away more and more with every word he muttered; his voice shaky as he said that he had no idea where he might have lost it. Feeling a little overwhelmed at how to handle this situation, Kotori glanced between the miserable little pile that was Kanna and the by now well-armed rest of the group; almost hoping that one of them might somehow have overheared the conversation and know what to do - but between Kanna's drop in volume and the way he'd seemed to try not to draw anyone else's attention, she doubted that would either happen or do much to improve the situation at hand.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Kotori started, despite not really knowing what to follow up with.

Maybe...""</font> she said - even though the confidence she inspired was likely about equal to the amount she felt in her ability to do so. Still, she thought that just saying that she didn't know what to do either wouldn't be very helpful - even if it was true. With that decided, Kotori got up from her seated position, brushing away any sand that may be clinging to her despite taking the precaution of a towel and pushing up her glasses before turning to Kanna with a confidence-inspiring smile on her lips.<br/><br/>At least, that's what she intended. The result looked more like a wry half-smile that conveyed a lot more of the lacking than inspiration of said confidence. A similar sentiment could be felt when she spoke up in turn: <font color=""green"">""Uhm, do y-you remember where you last saw it? Maybe w-we could... sort of... retrace your steps to there?""</font> It sounded almost more like a question than a suggestion - but Kotori held on to the admittedly rather faint hope that it might be enough to help Kanna out of his misery. As she did so, she quickly tried to think of likely places for something to go lost - the changing rooms perhaps? She really hoped it wasn't much earlier than than, seeing as that could mean he'd lost the picture that meant so much to him on the train.<br/><br/>A flash of movement of bright colours out of the corner of her eyes caught Kotori's attention - and reminded her that the others were currently still setting up their water war and might be wondering why they weren't being joined by Kanna and herself. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, w-we will be right back, because, Ka-, ah, we forgot something,""</font> she said - conviction evidently not being her strong suit today as her attempt at a smile once more came up rather lackluster - but hopefully managing to let the others know what was happening without upsetting Kanna, who did not seem to want to divulge the reason for it any more than he had to.</div>"

Sato was perfectly fine just people-watching from the cool shade of the umbrella, sitting beside Mako. The stress of his final year of highschool was already giving him grey hairs, and all this mirror world business was definitely not helping. Being with the team on days like this were fun, in one way or another, even if he wasn't really doing anything in particular. He would smell the ocean spray, dig his toes in the warm sand, and relax.<br/><br/>	That is, until he heard something about a watergun fight. While it sounded sorta fun, his first thought was those dinky 50 yen things you got from the corner store that worked as well as plugging a microwave into a potato, and if they were gonna mess around with those, Sato would much rather just watch. Curious, though, he zoned back in to reality and looked over his shoulder. To his surprise, Rui and Kazuki dumped a huge pile of impressive-looking waterguns onto the sand. It definitely looked a lot cooler than the first-grader water-ticklers he'd dreaded.<br/><br/>	Sato nudged Mako in the side before he got up and walked over to some of the others, who already seemed pretty amped up for it. Some of the more standard weapons were already taken, like the classic rifle or some pistols. Sato also liked the gatling gun thing Ryan had, but it seemed to be the only one of its caliber so Sato looked for the next best thing for him. There were a couple ones that looked a lot better than they worked, but eventually Sato picked up a long rifle with a sniper-like snout. He did a test shot to the side. It was pump-action like most of the other ones, and it had a significantly higher range than the others, but he'd get decimated in the time it took to 'reload' the water pressure for any decent shot.<br/><br/>	""You can go solo if you want, but don't come crying when you get shredded in a 4-on-1."" Sato said, a mischievous glint in his eyes. He held his gun like a soldier on parade and swiveled around to look at Mako. ""I'll keep you covered if you go first.""</div>"

Sato held his gun with a white-knuckled grip, eyes darting between everyone standing around by the weapons pile. All enemies, all targets now. Since both Rui and Ryan insisted it be a free-for-all, Sato quickly realized it was only gonna be him and Mako against the world. Though... could he even trust Mako? He doubted he would ever betray him in like, the Mirror World or anything, but in a water gun fight? It was so inconsequential in the end that it brought the evil out of everyone. They were all wild dogs looking for prey in this kill-or-be-killed game. So Sato decided he needed to strike first.<br/><br/>	""Eat shit and die."" Sato punctuated his taunt by aiming his water rifle and shooting Ryan straight through the heart. He wasn't stupid enough to stand there and provoke the others further, so he broke away from the group and started strafing away, pumping the gun rapidly to try to get more free shots in before everyone started scrambling. Mako seemed to follow Sato, joining him in his new position between the group and the ocean. The fastest, free-est, and practically only (and free-est?) way to refill their guns would be the sea, so staking out a good position would give them an advantage when they inevitably burned through their ammo.</div>"

But enough musing; Samuru ran for the nearest water tap, one normally used as an alternative to showers and for emergency drinks. That way, should Rui accept his offer of a duel, he would have a way to fill his water gun.

The water guns Rui used were a little weak unless they were capped out, so moving to the beach was best.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>:: Sadaomi Residential ::<br/><br/>Someplace a little ways from the beach was an abandoned house, sitting on the far edge of the residential street.

This in turn had lightened Kotori's mood, given how she really didn't know how to handle other people being so down. As such, she was quite glad to see that Kanna's first trip with the group wouldn't be soured by his loss of something precious to him. Even so, there was still some discomfort in movement - albeit this stemming mostly from having just walked across the beach underneath the steadily warming sun whilst still wearing her summer jacket, light though it may be.<br/><br/>As such, she was also glad to see the parasols still set up and having survived the watergun fight; the end of which Kanna and she had arrived just in time to witness and leading her to give a small wave in greeting when they were noticed. Kotori couldn't help but quickly glance over all of the participants - and feel a small measure of relief that they had all managed to avoid getting any accidental injuries if things happened to get a bit more serious than the rather goofily-coloured weapons of choice might suggest. Most importantly though, everyone seemed to have enjoyed themselves - which brought a small smile upon Kotori's face even as she stepped under the parasol that kept her bag and spread-out towel safe from the sun. It wasn't much cooler - but it took the edge off just enough for any light breeze to feel quite pleasant as she sat herself down.<br/><br/>Kotori enjoyed the feeling with her eyes closed behind her glasses for just a moment before she opened them at the sound of voices drawing closer too. Rui was pointing out where one might be able to get something to eat for lunch - the tips coming courtesy of Kazuki, presumably. This surprised Kotori - not that Rui knew what to do, but rather how quickly the morning had already passed. A quick glance inside her bag and to her phone indeed confirmed it. It also confirmed that the small silver locket that she'd safely stowed inside was still there too - which had been much the reason she'd known how Kanna must have been feeling when he thought he'd lost his own precious possession.<br/><br/>Kotori briefly shook her head - rather than think on what she might do if she lost her locket, she instead rifled through the bag a moment longer before drawing forth a pair of water bottles; blinking away a spell of the same drowsiness that had accompanied her all day, given her lack of sleep the night before, as she did. She reached for the bag again - but hesitated for a moment before glancing around to the others as they all made their plans for lunch. She had made herself a small packed lunch the evening before - and in her fretting over being prepared for the trip, had even made some extra; just in case someone happened to forget either a lunch of their own or at least enough money to buy some.<br/><br/>As she looked around though, no one seemed particularly distressed, so her worries had evidently been for nothing - and she'd feel a little guilty if she offered to share, given that she only ever cooked meals for her mother and herself and didn't want to make anyone feel guilty for saying no. Still, what if someone wanted to stay in the shade rather than having to take a walk to get to a restaurant? Kotori argument with herself went for another round or ten before finally, and with some hesitation, she finally spoke up - little though that might mean, given that her voice was as quiet as ever.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... i-if you'd like...""</font> Kotori's voice trailed off when she noticed a few of the other turning in her direction, given her lack of direct addressing - but after a moment, she slid out a bundle from her bag and placed it upon her lap. <font color=""green"">""I-I, uhm, I made some, ah, extra lunches, s-so if a-anyone would like, uhm...""</font> Try as she may, Kotori couldn't quite help but feel increasingly embarrassed as she continued speaking; the incessant way in which her fingers were unconsciously playing with the cloth covering the packed lunches making that much obvious for all to see - if the way her bespectacled eyes were nervously glancing about anywhere but her fellow beach-goers didn't tip them off already.</div>"

He had terrified Kanna, had a fun yet ultimately fruitless water gun duel with Rui, and shown no skills that others cannot fill. The group would never accept him; they were a closed circle -<br/><br/>Wait, was Kotori offering additional lunches? Best to make one more try at socialization, then. He would approach the young bespectacled girl, saying, ""I brought my own lunch as well, but it would be rude not to accept what you are offering the group. Let's make a party of it; I'll get my food and we can all share each other's meals.""<br/><br/>And with that, Samuru went off to get his packed lunch, before coming back with his bento box, which contained some simple sushi and pork cutlets as well as rice. He would then go to where Kotori was setting up a joint meal (if the others agreed to eat with her), and help the young bookworm with the setup. Then, the young man - easily one of the oldest people here - would look over the others, somewhat struck by sadness. They were all happy for now, but how long will this last? It appeared as though this was merely the eye of the storm.<br/><br/>It was then that Samuru felt shame at complaining to himself and Kanna about how the group seemed to be closed to him. Why wouldn't they be closed, when they've lost so many, not to death, but to unknown causes? That, and they might yet die soon, in this 'Mirror World'.<br/><br/>Before they settled down to eat, Samuru prayed early, saying the regular prayer said before the meals. <span class=""bb-i"">Thank you, God, for the food and the peace,</span> were his thoughts. Once he was done with his prayer, he would then quietly eat his meals.<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Once they were done eating, he would approach Rui and say, ""A moment of your time, Rui-sama? I want to chat with you in private."" <br/><br/>The honorific was deliberate, a sign of how much Samuru looked up to him and his skills. Once he and Rui had gone off to somewhere relatively secluded, Samuru would say: ""I know I only have stories and isolated plot elements to go on, but...things will be more difficult following this. So, I would like to talk about the upcoming conflict."" A pause for effect, before he would say, ""There has been a large slew of disappearances in our group, such that we can rely on only five or six people out of twenty-one Arcana - yes, I counted the number of seats in The Velvet Room."" <br/><br/>""Those five people are: You, Mako, Sato, Ryan, and Kotori; Kanna is yet untested."" Hopefully, Kanna was not conveniently eavesdropping, or this caution might be mistaken as lack of faith. ""Of those five, Sato is the strongest, if what I saw with my own eyes in battle or what I see in his' and Mako's eyes is the truth. Mako and Ryan are the second-strongest, and I am just below them; I hope this isn't taken as prideful. Now, Kotori...she has the best healer in our group, although her options for counterattack are more limited than mine. As for Kanna...as, I said, he is untested.""<br/><br/>Samuru pursed his lips. ""So, once we've relaxed and fully rested, I want to be Kanna's trainer, assuming the latter accepts it. I will escort him to various dungeons or provide help during Velvet Room Challenges, and in doing so, make him stronger.

He had thanked his glasses wearing senpai profusely, the sadness and distress on his face slowly but surely fading at this point as he could only think about how cool his new friend was for helping him out; he was practically infatuated at this point.<br/><br/>As it looked like everyone was about to go and get something to eat, Kanna's gaze moved to Kotori once more as it looked like she brought her own food. Thankfully, and fortunately, the girl was nice enough to offer to the rest of the group, which basically meant that he could stay with her!

He didn't worry about it too much though, as it didn't seem to pertain to him. Instead, he talked to Kotori, who he had grown extremely fond of over the past few hours. He laughed, he joked, and used every attempt he could to make the other smile. He could say that he was actually having fun as well. All of that crazy stuff about personas and arcana had been push to the back of his mind...that is until he heard his full being spoken out to the open, in which he turned to see Samuru.<br/><br/>Hearing his words of wanting to train him to get stronger at this Mirror World and persona stuff was a little nerve wracking, but the fact that he was asking had to mean that Samuru had some faith in him, right?

Yet at the same time, she was glad that she had done so - after all, even if no one agreed to stay, she'd at least not be berating herself later on for not having the courage to even ask a simple question.<br/><br/>However, her thoughts on small victories over her own nature were interrupted rather soon - and not in the way she had quite expected when someone stepped closer. Looking up from behind her glasses, Kotori saw that it was Samuru - and as he spoke of making a joint meal with everyone, the surprise she felt became quite evidently legible upon her face as she blinked in silence when the older boy pointed over to his own bag. It took her a moment to realise that it might be rude of herself to not say anything in return, leading her to stumble for words as she quickly nodded: <font color=""green"">""Ah, y-yes, right, uhm, p-please, go ahead.""</font><br/><br/>As it turned out, Samuru wasn't the only one to respon in such a fashion - Kotori almost jumped when a sudden clap resounded from beside her. Its source was a beaming Kanna whose mood had done a complete turnaround since they'd found the picture he'd been looking for. Her surprise ebbed away and made way for relief at the sight - she had harboured a slight worry that his sudden burst of happiness would only be brief and fade into reserved withdrawal. However, it seemed that he'd shaken any apprehensions off and was instead enjoying himself together with everyone else and seemed to have a smile on his lips whenever Kotori happened to glance over towards him.<br/><br/>Kotori's relief, in turn, was supplanted by a rather rapid reddening of her cheeks when Kanna suddenly complimented her completely out of the blue. <font color=""green"">""Eh? I-tha-uh, ah, n-n-no""</font> was the most eloquent response she could manage in short order - and making it quite evident that she hadn't the faintest idea how to handle a compliment as her voice trailed off into unintellible mumbles.<br/><br/>Thankfully enough, Kotori was saved from the sudden spot of embarrassment by yet another voice speaking up. Kotori's eyes practically shot up at the chance to somehow shift the topic away from herself - only to betray her surprise yet another time when she saw that it was Rui this time who too had come to join the slowly but surely growing group lunch. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, y-ye-yes, uhm, please, ah, please do""</font> she said, her voice still quite quiet and unsure following the previous surprise.<br/><br/>Seeing such a large turnout coming for her own proposal did bring a small measure of happiness to Kotori - and even though the sudden colour that had flushed her face hadn't quite died down just yet, a small smile did manage to work its way to her lips as she began unpacking the extra lunches that she'd brought along. Samuru had retrieved his own food in the meantime - and was approaching Kanna once more. However, before Kotori could notice more than that, Rui spoke up once more as he asked the group at large whether anyone wanted something to drink seeing as he was going.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm, no, thank y-you,""</font> Kotori quickly said, looking around before finding the still full water bottle she'd brought along too. <font color=""green"">""I-I already have some,""</font> she added with a shake of her head - which was both true and not the sole reason; seeing as she knew she'd probably feel rather guilty for having someone else get something for her when she could do it herself.<br/><br/>Glancing about, Kotori noticed that Samuru had taken Kanna slightly aside - but her momentary worry about the younger boy being intimidated by the older one was quickly put to rest when she noticed that the mood didn't seem quite as stiff as before. Instead, it seemed that they were discussing the Mirror World and their involvement therein - a subject which was quite heavy in and of itself. After all, they still didn't know exactly what that other realm was or really anything about it - only that it seemed actively harmful to any trespassers. On the other hand though, it was the one thing that tied everyone in the group together - and as such was, in a roundabout fashion, the reason they were here at the beach in the first place.<br/><br/>Kotori pondered that thought for a moment - but realised that, ultimately, it wouldn't lead anywhere and instead just shrugged to herself; focusing her attention instead on the food before her - and trying not to criticise her own handiwork too much, even if it was a task doomed to failure from the get go.</div>"

To the point where he aggressively screamed at every major firefight he got into, but by the time they were all done with shooting water everywhere, a heavy sobriety hung over him and the realization of what the hell he was doing slowly sunk in as they made a pile of water guns for Megumi to deal with. As she did that, the group decided that they'd go and grab food.<br/><br/>	Sato didn't really have any money to buy more food, but he didn't really feel like relying on Kotori and the others for their packed lunches. It felt weirdly skeevy for some reason, so instead Sato turned to Mako and tugged on his wrist. ""Come on, let's go check out the shops. I'm wondering if there's anything good here..."" He started off towards the market street, smelling all the food the stalls were cooking up for the crowd gathering in front of them. With the hunger rolling over all the people at the beach, though, came those places that were mysteriously empty looking compared to every part of the place. <br/><br/>	After grabbing something to eat (for free, for Sato), the two returned to the group, the circle of people forming a beach picnic kinda vibe. ""Hey, just..."" Sato sighed and looked over at the crowd of people all around them. Watching them all bustle around was weirdly calming to Sato.

That's right, not everyone here was a first or second year, next year was going to be the last year of school for some of them. Rui being in the second year meant he had one more year before he needed to think deeply about it. Some took up trades while others went onto tertiary education.

As such, Kotori was at least a little relieved - but before long, the ever-present doubts at the back of her mind started to wonder if everything really was to everyone else's tastes or if they were simply being too polite to show otherwise. Still, seeing as no one made any comment to that effect, Kotori cautiously decided to err on the side of optimism - at least for the moment.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>With lunchtime over and the various shared things having been returned to their respective owners, Kotori stifled a yawn - and spotted the return of the more outgoing members of the group who'd preferred to try the local cuisine. She gave them a small wave before whilst everyone seemed to be engaging in smaller groups for conversations among one another - leading Kotori to glance over to her bag and ponder whether to retrieve her book under these circumstances. However, just as she decided against it - for now - Rui spoke up; catching the attention of everyone as he so often did - and bringing up the topic of what the third-years were going to do after graduation.<br/><br/>As her upperclassmen began speaking about their plans - some more surprising than others - Kotori's eyes began to wander much as her mind did. Though only the third-years had been addressed, her thoughts shifted to herself and what she would say in the same situation - which lead her to realise that she well and truly did not know. Until now, she'd always just thought of graduation as some event far off in the future that might happen at some point - but never as a real and actual fact. Of course, it didn't take long for her to remember why she'd put off thinking about the future too much. The expression upon her face became a lot more sullen for a moment as she almost instinctively lifted a hand to her chest - but after a second or two, Kotori shook her head.<br/><br/>Putting those thoughts aside once again - and hoping that she wouldn't drag the mood down if she didn't - Kotori instead looked up to see which third-year would divulge their own plans for the future next - or whether they'd remain silent on the topic much like Kazuki had.</div>"

There were a bunch of the usual too, including watermelon-smashing and volleyball, but before they knew it the day was nearing it's end. The train they were to take was in a little over an hour and a half, and it was too late to keep playing on the beach, so they decided to go into a restaurant to get something to eat before lighting some fireworks and then going home. The restaurant was owned by Tadao's family, so they kind of ended up doing both at once. Someone suggested a test of courage, but there wasn't enough time left in the night, but it'd be the mountain path up to the local shrine so it seems.<br/><br/>Rui was getting the fireworks ready with a few of the others outside, they mostly just had some of the usual sprinkler ones. The warm night was contrasted by the cool breeze of the sea at night, making this an especially refreshing evening. Whenever it would feel too hot, just step outside and be met with a salty breeze, and it was still early enough in the evening that some of the warm air could still be felt.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""We've sure got a lot of these""</font>, he commented.

Luckily there were showers they could wash off in nearby, some people just went swimming in the ocean like he did. He sat out the game of volleyball, he wasn't a big fan of sports, but Rui absolutely killed it with those devastating spikes. Finally they went to a nice little restaurant, Ryan covered the bill for everyone despite protests from Tadao's family.<br/><br/>Now Ryan was helping Rui set up the fireworks along with a few others, he wasn't too nervous around small stuff like this.

From the distance, she swore the upperclassman's gaze wandered towards her direction before tripping and into the sand. Typically, the teen was well adjusted to the feeling of being looked at, due to her experience as a cosplayer, but... A slight blush tainted Shizuka's pale cheeks as she suddenly became conscious of the fact that her senpai stared at her in a bikini.<br/><br/>While the members of the group engaged on their own conversations, Rui and Kazuki suddenly came back with a bunch of different water guns. Impressed at how prepared for the beach they were, Shizuka applauded before being told that there was going to be an all out water gun war. Reminiscing a particular cosplay photoshoot involving a shooter game character, the maiden enthusiastically picked up a sniper type water gun. Dramatically whipping the tropical skirt (which covered her lower swim piece) away onto the ground, Shizuka struck a very in-character pose, <font color=""violet"">""Let's get this started!""</font><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>After such an exciting event, it was no wonder most of the people who had participated realized their hunger as soon as the excitement died down. With a feeling of accomplishment at how she was able to shoot at people caught off guard from a long distance, Shizuka smiled to herself as she joined the rest of the group for lunch. Fetching the bag that had contained the sandwiches consumed from the train trip earlier in the day, the teen brought out another bunch of boxes containing a set of rice balls.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""Um, if anyone would like rice balls, I-I brought these for everyone to share! There's salmon, plum, bonito flakes, and gomoku rice flavors.""</font> Glancing over at Matt slightly, the underclassman noticed he didn't bring much of a luggage presumably due to the rush to catch the train this morning. <font color=""violet"">""Wo-Would you... want some, Ha-Harvester-senpai?""</font>, Shizuka hesitantly asked.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">“oh, u-uh yea sure i was uhh getting hungry thanks”</font> after seemingly nervously taking a rice ball Matt took a bite and his eyes lit up <font color=""#aba000"">“oh so good”</font> with that comment the food in Matt's hand vanished. Afterwards it seemed as if a rice ball vanished from the basket every moment, with the only proof of their resistance stuck around Matt’s mouth.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">“thanks for the food”</font>.<br/><br/>As the group enjoyed their meal out on the sunny beach, Sato brought up an intriguing topic. What would happen after all this? If this were a game or some sort of fantasy anime, they would defeat the final boss, the town would be saved and a happy ending for everyone. But... what was beyond that? Shizuka was still on her first year of high school so there would still be enough time to decide her career but her skills on making clothes was definitely going to be of use.<br/><br/>Subtly eyeing with more than just mild curiosity, Shizuka wondered what Matt intended to do after his last year of high school in Japan. <font color=""violet"">""W-What would you be doing, se-senpai...?""</font> <br/><br/>Matt was sitting in the group oddly quiet for a moment until after the question about future plans was directed towards him.<br/><font color=""#aba000"">“oh uhhh well”</font> for another moment the boy went quiet in thought again.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">“i guess after my year ends here I'll have to go back to Australia to get all my graduation and stuff sorted and enrol into a university to work for a bachelors in agricultural science, what i'm looking to get into has an international program so i can come back to japan and would help with furthering to a masters… and also japan's agriculture is so much more fascinating</font>"" After blurting out his answer Matt went quiet again, it seemed like there was more on his mind than just his future studies.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000""><span class=""bb-i"">'I guess after my year ends here I'll have to go back to Australia ...'</span></font> The words Matt spoke... they echoed through her head and faded into silence. It shouldn't have come as a surprise considering the older teen was just a foreign exchange student but... Shizuka was naive to think that the moment they could innocently stay together like this would last forever. Reality finally caught up to her and it shook her. Literally. <br/><br/>Trembling lips managed a melancholic smile before parting to reply, <font color=""violet"">""T-That sounds wonderful. I hope you succeed in your future plans.""</font> While her words were sincere and she did mean every word of it, the subtle shaking of her hands were evident if one observed enough. <font color=""violet"">""U-Um, I apologize but I feel a little u-unwell, so I'll have to excuse myself fo-for uh... a bit of fresh air.""</font> Without giving much of time for anyone to reply, Shizuka rose up and ran away from the crowded scene of the beach.<br/><br/>hm? did i say something wrong? as Shizuka ran off claiming to be sick Matt tilted his head in confusion with the feeling something that he said was wrong, after a few moments of staring off at where Shizuka left Matt decided to follow suit, <font color=""#aba000"">""uhh I think someone should go make sure she's ok so I'll go off after her""</font> trying to sound as casual as possible Matt walked off after Shizuka.<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>The sun had already set, enveloping the shore with a cool ocean breeze and spreading the night sky with little twinkling stars. It was quiet and serene, with nothing but the sound of the waves calmly splashing onto the sand. It was the kind of tranquil scene Shizuka needed for time to herself. Tears along her cheeks had started to dry but the moist in her hazel eyes still remained. Sitting at the edge of the shoreline, the teen stared into the ocean, deep in thought.<br/><br/>Should she let this time slip through her fingers and bid him goodbye when he leaves? Was that what she really wanted? She supposed she brought this onto herself back at the hospital when the maiden attempted to break off the bond between them. It was for his sake, she would reason out to herself, but the more she convinced herself did it sound like an excuse. An excuse to make up for the things her shadow blurted out. But didn't Matt reject the idea because regardless of what the shadow had said, he refused to let go?<br/><br/>A sigh escaped her lips.<br/><br/>Soon after a sigh was heard a hand lightly touched one of her shoulders, <font color=""#aba000"">""finally I found you""</font>. Jumping at the sudden touch, Shizuka turned to  her upperclassman, Matt.<br/><br/>Matt seemed to be slightly out of breath and tired, of course he had been looking around for Shizuka all afternoon but with the people around it ended up being difficult to find her. He just wanted to find her and talk, something they hadn't really done in a while. <font color=""#aba000"">""are you ok, you didn't look too good so I wanted to make sure you were ok""</font> Matt didn't really know what to say so he seemed kind of awkward and rushed, but the genuine worry was there.<br/><br/>After the initial shock, Shizuka turned her gaze away from the boy and back to the serene ocean. <font color=""violet"">""Um... I-I'm alright, it's nothing alarming.""</font> There was an awkward silence between them afterwards, before Shizuka spoke up again. <font color=""violet"">""We've only met this year but... A lot has happened, hasn't it?""</font> She weakly smiled at this while her eyes were clouded with a melancholic aura. <font color=""violet"">""Thank you for the time and memories we've shared... and I do hope you'll do well in Australia.""</font><br/><br/>With Shizuka’s last words Matt’s face went blank for a few moments before any reaction came, but as soon as his mind processed what was happening his arms flung forward and around Shizuka from behind before they tightened embracing her.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">“Why...why do you make it sound like everything just has to be a distant memory? Do you want it to end that badly?”</font> As Matt spoke his grip tightened with tears welling up in his eyes, <font color=""#aba000"">“I don’t want there to be any goodbyes… I only want there to be a see you later”</font>.<br/><br/>Before anything else could be said Matt buried his head and started speaking more softly, <font color=""#aba000"">“I…. I love you, I might have to leave for a while but it wont be forever….”</font><br/><br/>The cold touch of the boy's arms caught Shizuka off guard. She was about to break away from the embrace when the ever energetic upperclassman's tone changed. The embrace made her realize that not only was his voice shaken, she could feel him shake lightly. There was a burning sensation upon her cheeks when the soft voice spoke a certain phrase, one she had heard for the first time from her dear upperclassman. <font color=""violet"">""Se-Senpai...!""</font> She bit her lower lip, resisting the urge to break down into tears again, yet the freshman already felt a drop of tear rolling down her cheek.<br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""I-I... I've terribly hurt you once, I.. I just can't bear to hurt you again. I-If you leave for Australia, p-perhaps... you can forget about me and start anew wi-with... someone else.""</font> Shizuka's last words were but a whisper with an evident pained tone until she couldn't hold the tears back and started to sob softly.<br/><br/>Matt quietly continued his embrace while listening to the replies that shot through him, cutting him deep, it took a long moment for Matt to form any kind of speech from his mouth. <font color=""#aba000"">“I-I don’t know what to say…..”</font> Matt’s head seemed to droop lower with the tone of voice, <font color=""#aba000"">“I…. I don’t want to leave you as a memory… I don’t want to find someone else, I don’t care what happened in the past, I get it… but…”</font> as the words flowed out so did the tears that were stowed away in his eyes.<br/><br/><font color=""#aba000"">“I only want to be with you, for now and forever… I refuse to move on</font>” As the tears flowed more his grip tightened.<br/><br/>The firm grip of the boy's arms showed how much he wanted her to stay, despite all that has happened. Was it right for her to keep denying him, even if she herself wanted to stay by his side? Her delicate hand held one of his gently, as Shizuka replied, <font color=""violet"">""Harvester-senpai... If... If you persistently wish to be to-together despite the inevitable pain that may come along with it, ... I-I wish to be by your side as well. I... I just believed that it would be more painful for you to be with me.""</font><br/><br/>Hearing Shizuka’s words, Matts spirit seemed to suddenly lift, <font color=""#aba000"">“I want to be with you no matter what, and no matter what happens from now on if we stay together i'm sure we can overcome any hardships”</font>. Matt loosened his grip only to turn Shizuka around and re-embrace her, <font color=""#aba000"">“no matter what i’ll continue to love you”</font><br/><br/>Embarrassed from all the things Matt had said, Shizuka shyly buried her face onto the boy's chest as her hands slowly calm their shaking and return his embrace with her own. <font color=""violet"">""Yo-You're truly dear to me, senpai, and I am willing to wait for the day of your return.""</font> Taking a pause to set aside her embarrassment, the girl stood on her toes to reach higher, closer to Matt's ear and whispered softly, <font color=""violet"">""I-I... I love you as well se-senpai.""</font><br/><br/>The two teens fell silent in embarrassment with blushing cheeks until their lips curved into bright smiles, as bright as the stars that shone above them. As the embrace loosened, the two eyes met and without a word, they mutually understood. Shizuka being timid as always, Matt chuckled a little before pressing his lips softly against the other's for an innocent kiss. Pulling back a short moment afterward, the boy embarrassedly scratched the back of his head while the girl fidgeted with her skirt. <br/><br/><font color=""violet"">""S-Shall we head back?""</font><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/>By the time the two had returned to the group, each member had a stick or two of fireworks in their hands. <font color=""violet"">""I-I apologize for my absence bu-but I do feel better now, thankfully.

As they day had carried on - and particularly once the excitement and energy of the afternoon had started to fade much like the sunlight, the tiring effects of her rather fretful sleep the night before were making themselves known once more. With the rather cozy post-dinner atmosphere in the still-warm night, it didn't take long for Kotori's mind to wander as she thought about the events of the afternoon whilst only listening to the ongoing conversations around her with half an ear. For despite the pleasant ongoings, she couldn't help but worry about her fellow two Agriculture Club members.<br/><br/>As such, she'd only half-heartedly participated in most of the events of the afternoon - deigning to sit out on the fishing on account of having no knowledge thereof and not being all too eager to acquire it; even if she was somewhat surprised that someone actually managed to fish up an old boot. She declined participating in the volleyball match, too - though that was unsurprising, given that she wasn't exactly the most sporty person even if she didn't end up out of breath after just a few minutes of strenuous activity.<br/><br/>Still, she did enjoy the watermelon that had been brought along - even if she ended up getting some of it on her jacket in the process, albeit that not being of her own fault. She didn't blame Ryan for it either though - he seemed most surprised of everyone that his swing ended up sending watermelon bits flying all across the beach and in no small part over himself, too. Not wanting to leave her summer jacket in such a state, this did force Kotori to reluctantly doff the thin yellow garment as she gave it a quick rinse under the nearby showers. On account of it being soaked through, it left her little choice but to return without wearing it - and instead, much to her self-conscious dismay, wearing only the swimsuit she'd worn beneath all this time.<br/><br/>Ultimately, Kotori was almost glad for it - after all, she'd probably just been mentally beating herself up if she'd actually bought a new swimsuit and furthermore even gone to the ocean and then proceeded to never actually dip as much as a single toe into the wide blue sea. Besides, she told herself that everyone else was wearing their swimwear too, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about - though telling and believing were two different things entirely.<br/><br/>Still, whether true or not, she couldn't help but feel like she was drawing more attention that she liked as she quickly made her way back to the towels to let her jacket dry on the nearby warm rocks in the sun. As such, Kotori soon hurried over to, for the first time ever, actually feel the ocean waves curl around her legs - and most definitely not using the opportunity to hide herself beneath the water's surface, clear though it may be and thus doing little to actually conceal the light blue and white colored pattern that rose into a multitude of blooming summery floral prints that made up the upper half of her swimsuit. And with her glasses ever firmly in place, she didn't submerge herself any lower than her neck - though that hadn't stopped her long black hair from rising up and floating behind her.<br/><br/>It was quite a while yet before she actually headed back out of the surprisingly warm ocean waters, as she told herself it was purely because she actually enjoyed the gentle motions of the waves and the feeling of the sand shifting beneath her feet and most definitely not because it took her that long to work up the courage to do so.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>With her hair long-since dried - though still feeling a little funny after both only getting partially wet and also having been in the salty seawater for some time - and once more wearing her trusty summer jacket, Kotori's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a rather unexpected sound. Blinking rapidly, her tiredness was forgotten in an instant as she locked eyes with the source - and her face grew paler yet when she confirmed for herself that someone had, in fact, just suggested a test of courage. Luckily, and to her great relief, it quickly turned out that there simply was not enough time left before the train they wanted to catch left - and as such, Kotori was unusually enthusiastic in nodding her agreement when it was decided to not conduct it after all.<br/><br/>After that brief shock, Megumi showed up - and once again, had managed to acquire a whole host of things from seemingly nowhere. This time, the objects in question were a few small boxes of fireworks - which were soon handed over to Rui, Ryan and a few others who began setting them up. It wasn't long before they called everyone else outside - and to the sight of neatly prepared sparklers which were soon thrust into any unoccupied hand. Kotori was no exception to this and soon found herself grasping an unlit firework. One by one, the others lit theirs and quickly the sound of spraying sparks filled the air. The flickering lights illuminated the faces of their holders, showing smiles almost all around.<br/><br/>But even in all the merriment, Kotori couldn't help but glance around in worry - the sun had set, yet there was still no sign of either Shizuka or Matthew. She was growing slightly restless, even though they still had more than an hour before their train left. So in thought was she that she didn't even notice someone offering to light the firework in her hand - and taking her silence as a yes. Preoccupied as she was, Kotori almost jumped at the sudden fizz coming from so close; eyes wide in surprise behind her glasses at the sparks flying off into the night and vanishing after just a heartbeat.<br/><br/>Her surprise softened into a more relaxed state after a mere few moments more. Watching the small motes of light break off in all directions reminded her of shooting stars, glowing brightly in a dark night's sky before vanishing forever - even if she'd never actually seen one for herself. The thought almost brought a smile to her lips as she realised how silly the comparison was - but it stuck with her nonetheless. So much so, in fact, that she tentatively wondered if someone had perhaps thought of wishing upon a sparkler before.<br/><br/>Shaking her head, Kotori reprimanded herself for such silliness - but that didn't stop a small voice in the back of her head being more true to herself: <font color=""green"">""I hope those two come back safely soon...""</font> Her voice was even more quiet than usual - and thus completely drowned out by even just the single firework in her hands. Hearing the others all around her being far more joyous - and, as she noticed after looking up from her own sparkler, sporting a lot heartier smiles - Kotori sighed at herself for always being such a downer; even if she couldn't help it.<br/><br/>Still, having looked for so long directly at the bright sparks that were being sprayed in all directions, Kotori fruitlessly blinked a few times to try to rid herself of the bright spot in the middle of her vision that was being rather persistent about not going away - only for her to suddenly stop mid-blink when a voice spoke up from the light-blinded darkness: <font color=""violet"">""I-I apologize for my absence bu-but I do feel better now, thankfully. May we join in the festivities?""</font><br/><br/>Finishing her initial blink, Kotori followed it up with a few more as she turned to face the source of the sound - and once her eyes had adjusted to the actually still-light evening instead of the glowing fireworks, managed to recognise her for who she was: Shizuka. But not only that - beside her was the other missing member in the form of Matthew. Glancing between the two, relief slowly brought a smile onto Kotori's face as she nodded. <font color=""green"">""Of course, Otonashi-san, Harvester-senpai. Welcome back,""</font> she said, this time at least loud enough to be audible.<br/><br/>And though she didn't realise it herself, Kotori's smile grew softer and more heartfelt when she slowly realised that the strange and subtle mood that had been plaguing the two seemed to have finally been lifted. Perhaps, Kotori thought, there was actually something to those shooting stars.</div>"

Kotori seemed a bit down, she was worried for her fellow club members,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I'm sure they'll be fine, here""</font>, he handed Kotori yet another sparkler as her current one went out.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""We're all here to have fun, wouldn't do to be gloomy now""</font>, he reassured.

Still, even if they were childish, there was nothing wrong with enjoying oneself.<br/><br/>The rest of the night was spent in rest, from dozing off in the train home to getting home to sleep, to get ready for another day of the Summer Break... There was a lot to do... Both in and out of the Mirror World...

Half-asleep, he laced his fingers with Sato's, holding on tightly. He tried to ignore the fact that his heart was still thudding in his chest as he pondered what Sato had asked earlier. He hadn't really had a chance to answer, given that he'd been interrupted, but damn if he hadn't had plenty of time to think about it. What was he planning on doing when he graduated? Granted, he'd have time to decide, but his concern was that Sato would graduate before him. Was he planning on leaving straight away? Did he want to stay in town until Mako was ready to leave? What--<br/><br/>Sato's hand shifted in his, sending the butterflies in his stomach into a flurry. He pondered this, then finally calmed himself down. What did it matter? Whatever his future entailed, he knew for sure that Sato would figure into that. He'd come too far to get this to just give up on their relationship now. He turned to his boyfriend with a small smile, and pressed a kiss to his cheek.<br/><br/><font color=""#0072bc"">""I have an answer for you.

Unlike the ones they were running into though, this one was very well setup, halfway to a town so it would seem. Like the other villages, there were glass shards floating in a pillar towards the end of it... If they defeat it as per normal, then they should clear to the next area.<br/><br/>There was one thing unsettling about this place however, and it was the phantoms walking around, but the longer you looked at it, the more you realized that these phantoms were emulating married couples and happy families, and that they all looked the same, but more importantly like a fading memory, they blinked in and out between actions, and sometimes disappearing completely, before new ones would appear. An echoing of laughter and murmurs was present here, much more strongly than when they had unlocked this area.<br/><br/>The party’s focus had been cleared as soon as the shrill cry of a hawk brought them back to their senses. Zeke was stirring around the sky waiting to do his thing it seems... Kami seemed more perturbed by these phantoms than others.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">“Right then, Kami I’ll take a group to face the Mirror Shadow, while you standby to back us up”</font>, he requested. It was agreed, he then turned to Kazuki, who seemed to be looking around.<br/><br/><font color=""royalblue"">“I will be exploring this little village then, have Zeke call if you need some support”</font>, he stated. It seems there was something he thought was worth looking around for.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">“Very well. Okay then, Ryan, Sato, Kotori, you three with me. The rest of you are under Kami, be ready to give us backup”</font>, he ordered, and with that he walked forward with the chosen party and stood in front of the pillar of floating shards, as it began to form into a shape, it was somewhat familiar, except it was completely black. A Black Shiki-ouji. Though as that began, shadows began to form from the numerous phantoms as they began to surround the party in back. Though it was all or nothing, they can’t just leave the Mirror Shadow alone now.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">“We’ll let them take care of everyone back there, if we take this down then the rest should retreat too”</font>, he ordered, and with that they entered battle.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">ENEMY - Black Shiki-ouji, Servant of Denial<br/><br/>Ryan stepped up to the plate first, cracking his neck with a brash smile on his face as his Persona card materialised in front of him. He snatched it out of the air, crushing it in his hand to summon Geraint as it unfurled it’s mighty wing. “You guys ready? Because I’m starting this battle with a bang!” Ryan called out to his friends and comrades as Geraint pointed it’s sword at the Black Shiki-ouji, a blinding white light glowing at the tip of the rapier as Ryan called out his move. “Geraint, fire your Beam of Justice!” A minor blush rose to his cheeks as he said this, he had spent all day coming up with a name for this super attack and this one felt the most right. Even if it was something straight out of Phoenix Ranger Featherman R. As the beam hit the Shiki-ouji it would explode into a mighty pillar of light, reaching far into the sky above.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>The Mirror Realm never failed to unnerve Kotori, no matter how she tried to tell herself she was getting used to it. Whilst she didn't spend quite as long looking around nervously to see if there were any shadows skulking about anymore, that didn't mean she didn't feel ill at ease as she followed the others further in. Though they'd been to this place many times already, no one had come to any real understanding of just what it was - and for all she might love a good mystery in a book, being faced with vaguely threatening uncertainty at every step turned out to not suit Kotori's tastes at all.<br/><br/>But even so, she continued on, stepping through the torii and blinking in surprise behind her glasses as she found herself in a village - and not a small one at that. She never quite knew what to expect - but around every corner she came across, the Mirror Realm seemed intent on not being it. As the group cautiously moved forward, she became aware of the strange shades occupying the place. Tensing up momentarily, it would take a while before she realised that they were no threat and she'd relax - or at least try to.<br/><br/>In fact, the phantoms didn't pay them any heed whatsoever - instead quite preoccupied with each other. Hard though their features be to make out, Kotori believed she could see the faint outline of smiles on their faces as they moved silently about. Some were holding hands, others were seated together - in fact, wherever she looked, Kotori couldn't help but see flickering images of happy couples and families. Were they not seemingly fading from existence, she might have taken some joy in such a sight - but as it stood, it only added to her unease as the group approached the pillar floating fractured glass at the end of the village.<br/><br/>A cry from above pierced Kotori's fretting thoughts then and her eyes shot up to see Zeke circling above them. It was all the reminder she needed that they weren't here to just marvel at the mystery - instead, she locked her eyes on the pillar up ahead as Rui began to lay out the plan going forward. As he called upon her to assist him, together with Ryan and Sato, in taking on whatever might be lurking within the strange glass, Kotori blinked in surprise - with everyone else present, she'd assumed he'd want someone with some more fighting ability than herself. However, she was quick to nod and slow to clear her mind of doubt. Thankfully, circumstances conspired to speed that up too.<br/><br/>As if it sensed Rui stepping up to the challenge, the slow back and forth movement of the floating shards of glass ceased - and then began to coalesce with a constant crackling sound; ending in a strangely distorted crack as a figure manifested out of the mass of glass. The strange light within began to fade - and increasingly fast, as it instead turned to black. And from this, the Shadow finally took shape. The Shiki-Ouji was not alone however - all around the village, the phantom villagers too began to darken and twist into shadows that bore down upon the group. Were it not for the fact that Kaminari's group was ready to take them on, Kotori would most certainly be feeling even less confident than she was right then and there.<br/><br/>Rui calmly told them to pay no heed to the smaller shadows and instead focus solely on the Shiki-Ouji. To this, Kotori nodded before taking a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself - an attempt that wasn't met with all that much success - before raising a hand. A faint blue light began to emanate above her palm as it took the shape of a card in the image of the Second Arcana, The Priestess. And just as soon as it appeared, it was shattered as a single word crossed Kotori's lips:""Kikuri-Hime.""<br/><br/>With the flowery shrine maiden that was her persona forming behind her, Kotori felt the lingering doubts make way for the comforting calm as she focused her attention upon the black figure before her - even as it was suddenly engulfed in a blinding column of light as Ryan made the first move. With the Shadow not having had an opportunity to attack yet, she too was free to go on the offensive and hoped that her limited capabilities in that regard might at least be able to do some good in following up on the opening Geraint's attack had hopefully created.<br/><br/>For with another word, the fading pillar of light was replaced by a far briefer flash as a bolt of lightning crashed down upon the Black Shiki-Ouji: ""Zionga.""<br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>BLACK SHIKI-OUJI<br/><br/>The gigantic pillar of light and then followed by a blast of lightning with a blade of wind expelled from Rui’s Persona following Ryan and Kotori’s attacks seemed to find their mark… But as soon as the smoke cleared, the Shiki-Ouji was completely undamaged. This seemed… To be quite a problem. In a retaliatory manner the Shiki-Ouji swung it’s arm, firing off blades of paper at Sato, dealing a fair bit of damage to him, but it didn’t seem to be anything major… Yet.<br/><br/>“No damage…? Ayano, what are the results?”, as per usual, Ayano was always scanning at the beginning of battles automatically, a perk of deepened understanding between all of the party members. It seems Matthew and Shizuka weren’t the only ones with a special moment down at the beach, Kami and Ayano were busy off-screen.<br/><br/>“It… It keeps changing, but…”, the coverage was huge even if it was changing, it seems it only had one weakness at any one time. That time just now was Ice.<br/><br/>“It has only one weakness at any one time, and it changes with each turn”, she informed them. Rui took a look at the Shiki-Ouji… So far what elemental coverage did they have, Wind and Curse on him, Bless on Ryan, Lightning from Kotori, and more Wind from Sato, not to mention Pierce and Slash, and then Nuclear from Zeke up above. It appears they had at least around half of the coverage… So it was a near 50/50 chance they’d get something they can deal with. Once they caught the weakpoint, then they can dish out an All-Out Attack, or if they had Almighty on them they can just spam that.<br/><br/>“Alright then, so what’ll it be soon? It looks like it’s changing”<br/><br/>“It won’t last for long but… It’ll be one of the cardinal elements”, this meant fire, ice, lightning, and wind. Well that made his and Kotori’s next action simple.<br/><br/>“Kotori on my mark”, he ordered, grasping in the air in front of him as a card appeared, only to be crushed as his Persona took form once more, it’s sword wreathed in a green wind as he took a stance at the ready.<br/><br/>-------------------------------------<br/><br/>	Sato had withheld from attacking immediately, seeing as his allies seemed to be much more eager to start dishing out damage than him, and instead drew his bow carefully as he watched Ryan and Kotori blast the Shiki-Ouji. For a second, the explosion of lightning and holy laserbeam was aweing, and Sato felt a twinge of confidence, but when the shadow steadied itself again, it seemed to have barely been scratched. In a bit of a panic, Sato drew back his bow and notched an arrow to fire, but before he could summon his persona, the Shiki-Ouji launched a flurry of razor-sharp papers at him. The blades cut up his body, painting the floor behind him with thin lines of blood, but Sato managed to fight through the pain and stay standing. It wasn’t too bad of an injury, but it was definitely a bad start and something more major would really do him in next time.<br/><br/>	He took a moment to regain his breath, and as he took a battle stance again, Ayano explained what she could about their opponent. Apparently it was switched its elemental weaknesses over and over while blocking everything else. Seeing as Rui was already moving in to hit it with a wind-embued blade, Sato took a step back and summoned Chronos behind him. If they had to keep guessing which element the Shiki-Ouji was weak to, it’d be best to get as much leeway as possible, so Chronos spun its scythe and cast Marakukaja. With that, an ethereal shield surrounded each of them. It wouldn’t stop an explosion or anything, but it would keep the Shiki-Ouji’s retaliations from wearing them down.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Kotori strained to see what the result of the opening barrage had been after Rui followed up with a sweeping wind slash - only to go wide-eyed when it turned out that theyir combined attacks had done exactly nothing. Furthermore, the Shiki-Ouji took their momentary confusion for an opportunity to attack - and managed to catch Sato, who'd stood back to assess the situation before diving in, off guard before he could summon any real defence. Kotori winced as dozens of razor-sharp paper blades were hurled at the upperclassman who could do precious little to avoid the worst of the barrage. Kotori's confidence quickly sank at the sight - but thankfully, he remained standing; if looking a little worse for wear.<br/><br/>Kotori's first instinct was to call upon Kikuri-Hime to heal his wounds - but before she could do so, cooler heads prevailed as Rui, upon convening with Ayano, announced that she should instead target the Shiki-Ouji once more. Kotori's eyes flitted between Sato and the Shadow in a moment of hesitation - but finally, she swallowed hard and nodded. ""R-right,"" she said, even as she mentally added a concerned 'please stay safe' toward Sato as she fixed the Shiki-Ouji with her bespectacled gaze; trusting that Rui's assessment would carry them through as she nervously held another lightning blast at the ready of his mark.<br/><br/>---<br/>Ryan frowned as the Shadow took absolutely no damage, brushing off one of his strongest attacks as if he had thrown a wad of wet paper at it. Which is exactly what it proceeded to do, albeit it's paper wasn't wet. But it was very sharp. Sato took a deep cut, prompting Ryan to summon Geraint for medical support. All he knew was Mediarama unfortunately so he was going to be wasting a bit more energy than necessary doing this, but it was better than nothing.<br/><br/>“Geraint, Mediarama!” He shouted as a gentle light emanated from the king, showering the party in a healing aura. Ayano soon revealed the kicker, this Shadow only had one weakness at a time. It's next weakness was going to be either Fire, Wind, Ice, or Lightning, so he was playing support this round. “Let's make this next hit count!” Ryan shouted as he cast Heat Riser on Rui. <br/><br/>-------------<br/><br/>BLACK SHIKI-OUJI<br/>Combat<br/><br/>The lightning and wind erupted around the black shikigami, and as it cleared it’s body was contorted, slightly shredded and folded in various ways as if it was scrunched up, twitching, struggling to reform itself. It seems it worked, by the looks of it, it was Wind that made it through.<br/><br/>“It’s down!”, without delay, Rui made an order.<br/><br/>“Now go! Before it recovers!”, he yelled, leading the charge.<br/><br/>The Black Shiki-Ouji was attacked from all sides as it struggled to recover, and soon it was visibly quite damaged. A combination of physical attacks by the group of Persona users and their Persona’s added attacks did a number on it, but Rui had no intention of letting it properly recover. He raised his hand, and formed a fist, following this was the shrill cry of Zeke as the Mirror Shadow erupted in an azure-white explosion, which was then overtaken by a vermillion hue as the shadow was completely engulfed.<br/><br/>As the dust cleared, the Black Shiki-Ouji was visibly quite torn, and bending on one knee, struggling to stand. This wasn’t going to take much more. In a desperate attempt to fight back, the black paper shadow blasted everyone with blades of paper, dealing a somewhat noticeable amount of damage to everyone.<br/><br/>“Alright then, Ryan, you and me this time”, he ordered. So next was dark and light… And it can only be one of those two. Next turn will be it’s last.<br/><br/>----------------------------------------------<br/><br/>With her attention fixed squarely on the Shiki-Ouji and waiting on Rui's signal, Kotori was momentarily confused when an oddly familiar golden glow began to envelope her - before she could feel her breathing grow easier as Ryan's healing spell manifested itself among the whole group. Sparing a glance over to Sato, she saw that he was in a better shape thanks to it, much to her relief - but there was little time to enjoy that fact when Ryan proceeded to empower Rui for the upcoming attack.<br/><br/>This was all the preparation Rui needed as he gave the word. Immediately, Kotori let Kikuri-Hime unleash a lightning bolt upon the Shiki-Ouji; hopeful for a moment that it would be enough to break its strange resistance - but her heart sank when she realised that the thunderclap was more impressive than the damage inflicted as the magical lightning arced all around the Shadow before harmlessly dissipating.<br/><br/>Thankfully, Rui's attack faced no such problems - and strengthened as he was by Ryan's Heat Riser, his own wind attack struck true. The Shiki-Ouji reeled under the blast, folding in on itself and barely remaining standing - and entirely unable to maintain its impressive shielding. This was all the heads-up the group needed as Rui called for an immediate all out attack. Kotori quickly nodded as she proved that lightning did not strike the same place twice - instead, this was the third bolt to be sent down onto the struggling Shadow; a mere first strike among the many that followed courtesy of the other three.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, however, the Shiki-Ouji was deceptively tough for its paper looks - and managed to stave off the final blows that were to follow Zeke's air strike by reforming its protective shield; forcing the group to fall back and wait for another opportunity to strike. The Shadow was not done yet, however - as everyone disengaged, it used the brief moment to get in an attack of its own; swinging its crumpled arms in a wide arc that sent razor-sharp pieces of itself to slash everyone.<br/><br/>Though Kotori already stood at the rear of the group, she had no time to avoid the attack and instead instinctively threw up her arms to protect herself - an instinct that carried over to Kikuri-Hime who materialised in the path of the paper projectiles. Though this did stop them from reaching Kotori herself, the damage was sustained through their shared link; forcing a pained gasp from her lips. Though unused to the pain, Kotori took but a moment to shake it off as she knew that she wasn't the only one hurting.<br/><br/>As Rui called upon Ryan's aid to pierce the Shiki-Ouji's shield, Kotori was already taking a deep breath as she mustered her own energy to call to Kikuri-Hime once more. This time, however, it was not a lightning bolt that she sought - but a more restorative spell: ""Salvation."" And with that single word, Kikuri-Hime raised the thorned rose in her hands high - before bringing it down with what should have been a crash.<br/><br/>However, the only thing emanating from the impact was a golden radiance that momentarily lit up the entire village. Golden tendrils of light streamed outward and coiled themselves around the four fighting the Shiki-Ouji. Yet despite glowing with an intensity that should have been both burning and blinding, the only thing that they would feel was a soothing warmth and healing calm as any pain faded into the light; their wounds coming undone as if they had never been inflicted. It was over in a mere few moments - but following the healing spell, all four were back at the peak of their physical strength; even if Kotori's breathing was a bit quicker from the mental fatigue that calling upon many spells in quick succession was wont to cause.<br/><br/>---------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>BLACK SHIKI-OUJI<br/>Combat<br/><br/>With both dark and light hitting the shadow, it didn’t matter which was the actual weakness, it was going to be one of them, and sure enough it buckled back into itself, collapsing beneath the weight of the attacks.<br/><br/>Ryan wasted no time as his Persona took the charge, the long laser blade piercing the heart of the black Shiki-Ouji as it was down, before the blade pulsed in a pillar of light, enveloping both of them. As the light cleared, like ashes to the wind, the Mirror Shadow was scattered and torn in the air, but Ryan’s Persona Geraint was missing.<br/><br/>At this moment everyone would notice the bright light emanating from above, and it was as many would expect, Geraint himself, laser blade raised high in the air, before diving down, becoming a blade of light, enveloping and eradicating whatever was left, and landing with wings spread, breaking the fall. Brutal and righteous as it was elegant, and with that the battle was concluded.</div></div><br/><br/>The shadows surrounding the support group were beginning to retreat as Kami looked forward, spotting Ryan’s finishing blow on the Shiki-Ouji. It was a sight to behold, ultimate forms of Personas possess such raw power. Well regardless, with the battle concluded they regrouped before the floating mirror shards. Kazuki had returned from his exploration, he seemed somewhat satisfied by the look on his face, but they can inquire about that later.<br/><br/>As though they were hearing it in their head… It began with some laughing and murmurs like before, until it became more legible,<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“I vow to always be with you, even till death do us part”</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“I too…”</span>, two voices seemed to be taking their vows, at a wedding it seems, but soon the sappy moment was broken up by shattering glass.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“No… No no no no….”</span>, the man’s voice was manic, and soon became unintelligible before silence… And then… The glass shards reflected an image of a man. In his research, Kami would recognize it as the cult leader, though, younger… Gathered from this, it appears this was a memory, of sorts, referring to the death of his wife. This matches up with what’s on the files Kami had been searching through.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">“I will… See her again, I can see her again, with this… It’s… Possible”</span>, and with that, the glass shards disappeared into a fine glowing mist, and then clearing up entirely. The large doors at the end of the village swung wide open, showing them to a foresty valley.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">“I suppose we should get used to that… For now it seems best to go home and rest. We’ll explore the area up ahead another day”</font>, suggested Rui. So it seems that the cult leader’s presence in this world was while faint, very clearly here. But what relation did he have with this place? Well for now, it was best everyone just head home and rest up.<br/><br/>Though this excursion ended on a note of success, there was a gnawing feeling about what the truth about all this was... There suggested something tragic, yet bewilderingly confusing, was Seto just another dungeon like everyone else's? Or something more? Regardless, they can mull over it later.<br/></div>"

Rui and Ryan led this one, making full use of Ayano's predictions and striking the Shiki-Ouji with a twinned barrage of both light and dark attacks. And once more, the Shadow struggled - but ultimately, its wards failed and one of the attacks send it crumbling to the ground. This was not to be the end, however. Even as Kotori gathered her strength to use the Shiki-Ouji's momentary weakness for another bolt of lightning, Ryan was already leaping into action as Geraint went for a heartstrike.<br/><br/>But neither was that the end of his attack, for in the next moment, Kotori had to bring up a hand to shield her eyes from the sudden intense beam of light that erupted from the piercing laser blade of Ryan's persona. Blinking behind her glasses and between her fingers as the light faded, Kotori could see neither of the two figures standing; a swirling mass of torn paper instead remaining where Geraint had before struck his deadly blow.<br/><br/>Yet even tearing the Shiki-Ouji to shreds would not suffice as a light, faint at first but rapidly growing into a shining beacon, began to emanate from the blade of Geraint, who had taken to the skies in the momentary blindness that had afflicted all onlookers. And just as the intensity of the glare threatened to become painful, the persona swung its weapon downward - and immediately followed through with a mighty flap of its wings; accelerating at a pace too fast for any eyes to comprehend. He seemed to transform into a beam of light that mercilessly bore down on the tattered remnants of what had once been the Shiki-Ouji - and upon impact completely vaporised every last scrap in a radiant explosion of light and grand display of power.<br/><br/>With their foe so thoroughly annihilated, Kotori quickly made sure that everyone was unhurt before turning her attention to the second group who'd kept their backs clear of the swarms of smaller Shadows that the strange mirror people had transformed into - but as it turned out, they seemed to share the fate of their larger companion and began to scatter back into the shadows. Whilst everyone remained on guard for a few moments more, Kotori could soon breathe a sigh of relief as no more shadows surged forth to attack; using the welcome break to actually catch her breath as everyone gathered around.<br/><br/>Before long though, Kotori perked up again when she began hearing sounds - and not those of conversation between her fellow Mirror World explorers. It was a different voice - stranger, as if coming from far away and... long ago? She blinked in confusion at the thought, but it seemed the most apt way to describe the sheer otherness of the experience before she managed to recognise the words as those of a marriage vow. Despite the strangeness of the situation, a brief smile lit up on Kotori's face - only to vanish as quickly as the voices did with the sound of shattering glass.<br/><br/>Almost immediately, the only remaining voice took on a tone of desperation that left Kotori frozen - for she had the misfortune of having heard it before, if in a different voice. She barely even realised that the cracking glass had been very real as shards were slowly floating all around them, at times giving off brief reflections of a man unknown to her. One such reflection might show him in anger, another huddled down whilst at other times he pored over something - as his voice returned once more, speaking words stranger yet.<br/><br/>Kotori's thoughts were racing. Was that... the leader of the Junsei Sekai Tensei cult? Was this the reason for it? Trying to somehow bring back his wife from the dead? But that was impossible - it had to be. And what did she - or for that matter, everyone gathered around - have to do with all of this? But... resurrection? What made him think that it could be done?<br/><br/>Unmoving and utterly lost in thought, Kotori didn't even notice that, upon Rui's suggestion, the group began heading back to the entrace - only snapping out of things with a bewildered look upon her face when a hand was placed on her shoulders. <font color=""green"">""Huh? Wha-ah! S-sorry, ye-yes, right,""</font> she managed to say when asked if she was coming back too, hurriedly following in the footsteps of the others - but not without the occasional searching glace back at the village they were leaving behind. She was even more quiet than usual and merely gave a weak wave in goodbye when, upon returning to the warehouse that had become their base of operations, the group began splitting up as that had been more than enough Mirror World exploration for one day for everyone involved.<br/><br/>It was a long and uneasy time before Kotori would manage to fall asleep that night.</div>"

While it worked everyone to the bone, it basically meant they didn't need to do any repeat visits until later.<br/><br/>It was the noon of the Summer Festival in Warakuma, which being an outer suburb of Tokyo to the western side, shared dates with Tokyo's Mitama festival, albeit with slight differences. In Tokyo, it is the Yasukuni Shrine that gets lit up for a few days with lanterns, when Rui still lived in Tokyo he remembered that briefly, a shrine named after one of Japan's three regalia, the Yasukuni Magatama.<br/><br/>Warakuma's Summer Festival though was more or less a celebration, simple as that, but most of the original residents came from Tokyo way back in the day, and so the shrine's main path is decorated in a similar fashion, along with aisles full of festival food and the like.<br/><br/>Though it being noon, it was not as populated, and some stores were being fairly lax.<br/><br/>Over the weekend everyone had agreed to attend the summer festival together, if they wanted to go alone, they could on other days, since Warakuma's Summer Festival went for 4 days, and the 5th day until early evening. They had plenty of time for their own nights. Rui for today was wandering around the shrine, making routine visits to particular stores and places, which seem trivial when he was asked about it, but all he told them was ""to boost my stats"".</div>"

I forgot!""</font> With the summer festival now in full swing, there had been an unusually high number of customers in recent days - and with how Kotori was as nervous as ever when dealing with them, she had completely lost track of the time.<br/><br/>She almost immediately felt guilty when she realised that she'd have to just up and leave her mother to tend the store alone if she wanted to make it in time. But even as Kotori's eyes darted to the door from behind her glasses whilst she deliberated on what to do, she felt the green apron loosen and then get pulled up over her head. Turning around, she was greeted with her mother's wide smile - evidently more than a little bemused by her daughter's antics. <font color=""silver"">""Hop along now. Don't want to keep them waiting, do you?""</font> She said, making a shooing motion with the apron she now held to speed her along. <font color=""green"">""Ah, r-right, sorry.

As she did so, she failed to hear the chuckle of a knowing mother reaching to shift a clock back a few minutes.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Central Shrine | Wednesday, July 13 2015</span><br/><br/>More than a little out of breath, Kotori managed to make it to the meeting place in time - in fact, she was even a little early, strangely enough. Still, that did at least give her a few moments to catch her breath. Thankfully, at least she didn't have to keep an eye out for shadow creeping around like the last time when Rui had led the latest expedition into the Mirror Realm. Less thankfully, that single stray thought sent Kotori's mind into thoughts of that strange place - and its mysteries that were stranger yet. Absent-mindedly, Kotori shifted her handbag that she had slung over the shoulder of her pale yellow blouse into a more comfortable position.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Did the places mean something? Were they perhaps one of those strange dungeons that had appeared without fail whenever any of the investigation team had been abandoned to the Mirror Realm?

Left unchecked, her nervous habit of picking at her skirt - a careful eye might be able to pick out her favourite clothes just by the small marks she'd left at hand height - resurfaced once again. Left alone to her thought that never led anywhere, Kotori was only aware of her surrounding in passing and, as such, only noticed the others arriving when they willingly made themselves known - much to her bewilderment at being snapped out of her musings.</div>"

It was almost time, a little early, but it seemed Kotori was the only one here.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Oh Kotori, you're quite early. Are you that eager for the festival?""</font>, he asked as he walked up to her. The sun was beginning to set upon the town, and the heated air of Japanese summer began to settle. In not too long, the street lights should come on to replace the sunlight, but well before that, the streets were well lit with festival lanterns. There were already a fair amount of people from town coming in and enjoying the festivities.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Well, anyways, I'd noticed you're in thought quite often since we cleared the village. If it's about the things we saw and heard, don't think about it for at least until the festival is over.

She almost jumped when his familiar voice spoke up and interrupted her thoughts by speaking her name. Kotori's eyes shot up from the ground and fixed themselves on the unexpected owner of said voice; confusion quite evident upon her face - only to slowly fade into embarassment when she realised that, once again, she'd been too preoccupied to even notice her own surroundings. Her gaze wandered right back down to the ground at that - necessitating a quick adjustment of her glasses due to the sudden head movements slightly displacing them.<br/><br/>Having been thusly caught not paying attention, she managed to miss his next word at first, causing her to glance up when she realised that he had in fact just asked her a question. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was her first response, evidently still a bit flustered when she blinked in slight confusion. <font color=""green"">""Ah, n-no, I-I mean, yes, err...""</font> she tried and, evidently, failed to somehow enunciate that she was only so early on accident but still looked forward to the festival itself. Biting her lip in embarassment, she was just about to go on yet another mental tirade toward her proclivity for miscommunication when Rui spoke up once more.<br/><br/>Evidently, he was far less bothered by all this than her. Kotori blinked slowly in surprise when he said he'd noticed her being lost in her thoughts more often recently - surprise not only because she hadn't noticed that she'd been doing it more often recently, but also that it had apparently been rather evident when she was doing so. In fact, she seemed to have been so unsubtle about it that he'd even noticed exactly what she was thinking about when he mentioned the things that had transpired in the Mirror Realm. Embarassment was mixed with an almost guilty look at being read so easily.<br/><br/>However, her face soon showed surprise, mixed in with brief confusion, when Rui instead suggested she hold off on those thoughts until at least after the festival. Of course, he was entirely right - for all the thinking she'd done, she had not gotten anywhere whatsoever. Yet at the same time, Kotori knew herself well enough that even if she resolved to follow his advice, she'd sooner or later be dwelling on it once more.<br/><br/>Still, hearing him say as much was at least a little reassuring in knowing that a similar voice of reason in her mind, though oft-ignored for the far more pressing concerns of thinking through unsolvable problems or mulling over past mistakes, was not completely alone. In fact, listening to said voice did tell her that there really was no point in losing sleep over the strange Mirror Realm - and that she really should listen to it more often. Realising that repeating a task with no change in outcome was really just a waste of time, Kotori couldn't help but think how silly she was for doing so - even though she knew that, sooner or later, she'd probably be right back at it again.<br/><br/>Either way though, putting her mind in order would at least last for a little while - which would be enough to, as Rui suggested, enjoy the festival. As such, his reassuring smile was met with a smaller, less confident one on Kotori's lips as she almost apologetically nodded her belated agreement. <font color=""green"">""Uhm, r-right,""</font> she said, though she immediately doubted whether it sounded convincing when she hadn't truly convinced herself of it.<br/><br/>Nonetheless, she fully intended to follow through on her words - which, after all, was the very reason for this meeting in the first place. A quick look around, however, did not reveal the immediate arrival of the others just yet - a glance to her watch, in turn, confirming that she had definitely arrived a bit earlier than anticipated. As such, that would mean that she'd be waiting here for the other to arrive together with Rui - which could quickly turn into awkward silence if she didn't come up with anything else to say.<br/><br/>A thoughtful look crossed her face - though not to the same degree as just shortly before - until Kotori finally came up with something. <font color=""green"">""Uhm,""</font> she began; almost immediately losing the brief confidence she had in her idea. <font color=""green"">""S-so... why are, uhm, y-you here? Ah, I-I mean, this early, not, uhm...""</font> she said, her voice trailing off in equal measure to her eyes shifting downward as she combined the returning of his initial words with the satisfaction of her curiosity but stumbling over the phrasing half-way through.<br/><br/>Kotori inwardly gave a mental sigh - for all she thought she may have improved over the last few months, it seemed she was still quite terrible at handling spontaneous situations for which she hadn't been able to think of things to say in beforehand.</div>"

Rui gave her the time she needed to respond as he stood by. Based on how her body language was it seemed she was reassured to some extent. She spoke up not long after, asking why he was here early. Well, about that... There wasn't much to do at home today so he decided to go out for the day, and since he was already out he felt he should just come here and wait and take a look around before the festival begins.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I was just out of the house already awhile ago so I figured I may as well just come here right away instead""</font>, he responded.

I see...""</font> Kotori quickly said after glancing over to him; quickly shifting her eyes back to some unspecified point between the ground right in front of her feet and the occasional festival-goer that happened to walk close by.<br/><br/>In doing so, she did recognise the occasional face. The familiy from across the street went walking past, the attention of the parents obviously far too preoccupied with their two elementary school-aged kids to notice her. She saw a few boys and girls of her own age, too - even a classmate or two - who were already gathering in groups of varying sizes. Several girls - and even some of the boys, too - were wearing yukatas of various styles and colours. Some seemed quite comfortable and fit right in with the festival atmosphere - whilst with a small, sympathetic smile, she also noticed the occasional slightly discomforted looking individual who was clearly more used to lighter garments. Still, they did undoubtedly manage to pull off the look a lot better than she would have been able to in their shoes - or sandals, more likely.<br/><br/>Either way though, after stealing a glance at her watch, Kotori did notice an absence of any of the faces she would have expected - namely, just about anyone involved with the whole Mirror Realm expeditions. She wondered if perhaps she'd misread the message about the time or place of meeting - but quickly put that thought to rest when she saw Rui too giving the occasional seeking look; expressing the sentiment in words just moments later when he noted the lack of any arrivals. Peering around fully for once, Kotori couldn't help but agree: <font color=""green"">""Uhm, yeah...""</font> she said, not quite managing to hide the quizzical and ever so slightly worried tone in her voice.<br/><br/>Fishing out her phone from her handbag, she made sure to check both the time and whether she'd missed any incoming messages - but on both accounts, there was nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe they'd missed a bus? Or perhaps met some other friends on the way here? Or maybe some poor fellow had come down with a cold and had to stay home? Or maybe they just wanted to visit the festival in some livelier company? At that thought, Kotori glanced back over to Rui, who seemed ever as unflappable as ever - considering how he'd arrived so early, he was probably looking forward to the festival but was now stuck here waiting with her.<br/><br/>After mulling over the situation for another few moments, Kotori finally spoke up. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... Sh-Shinichi-san?""</font> she said, her bespectacled eyes once more fixated on the ground before her. <font color=""green"">""If y-you want, uhm...""</font> she continued after a brief pause, only to go into a slightly longer one as she briefly glanced over at Rui.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""...I could, ah, wait for the others if, uhm, y-you would like to go around the festival?""</font> she finally suggested - and quite reasonably, considering that she knew that she probably wasn't exactly the most thrilling of company to have around on her lonesome.</div>"

Perhaps everyone was tired? Hmmm, no that can't be. He knew Kazuki and Megumi had said they were going to be late, so they're out of the picture. He knew the others had their own relationships to tend to, so perhaps that was why. There were three days in this festival, so perhaps there was simply no rush. Kotori likewise seemed a little nervous as she usually was, it was comforting knowing despite her timidness, she was dependable in battle. She often was in the background when it came to the group though which wasn't surprising, but on closer inspection she was quite the beauty, or rather, the orange lighting of the festival brought more attention to her features. He was staring for a little bit before she spoke up to which his eyes just moved away for a moment, barely moving his head. She was mustering up all the courage she could so it felt with how she spoke. She was asking if he'd like to go around the festival.<br/><br/>Hmmmm... While he would feel a little bad about the group if he left, it was certainly unnerving just standing her and waiting, especially since everyone was late, and he didn't get any messages in regards to anyone being delayed. He's just going to assume it's Summer Break Fever and everyone's half an hour later than usual. Though they're always on time for the Mirror World surprisingly.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Hmmm... I guess it can't hurt to go around the festival a bit... How about you come with me? We won't go too far, just take a look at a few things, maybe buy something small to eat""</font>, he suggested to her, instead of just leaving her here. If he did that, he'd feel worse than if he wasn't here when everyone else arrived.</div>"

He seemed to muse over her words for a moment - which gave Kotori just enough time to wonder just how the others, such as Leiko or Chiaki, managed to effortlessly keep a conversation going when she was already all out of ideas what to talk about. Hence, her aforementioned suggestion - which doubtlessly would be a preferable outcome to the inevitable awkward silence that would otherwise follow.<br/><br/>As such, Kotori wasn't surprised when Rui agreed to her words. At least, not before he spoke on. As he casually suggested she accompany him, Kotori blinked in surprise. She repeated the words in her mind - but no, she wasn't somehow misunderstanding. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was the most eloquent response she could manage at such a short notice as she looked back at Rui. She had expected him to either agree with her and perhaps ask her to let him know when the others arrived. Or perhaps refuse to go alone, without the company of the others; even if it meant standing around at the designated meeting place longer yet.<br/><br/>Thusly unprepared, Kotori quickly glanced about in the vain hope that perhaps someone else would happen to arrive just in time - but alas, it was not to be. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> she said, her eyes finding an apparently most interesting spot on the ground before her feet. Her mind was rapidly going through the options - they were already at the meeting point, yet it was already past the time. Shouldn't she stay here? After all, if she were late, she'd probably appreciate it if the others waited for her. Yet at the same time, she'd probably feel even worse if they had to wait around doing nothing because of her. Still, that wouldn't bother her too much, seeing as it was a pleasant evening and even just the atmosphere was quite enjoyable.<br/><br/>Realising that she wasn't coming to any kind of conclusion very quickly - and that she was leaving Rui waiting for an answer for what felt like ages, despite just being a scant few moments in reality - Kotori finally just made a quick decision. <font color=""green"">""I-if that is fine with, uhm, y-you, then...""</font> she practically mumbled from the start, leaving any others word to be drowned out by the surrounding summer festival noises. Realising as much when she, if only for the briefest of moments, glanced back at Rui before returning her bespectacled gaze back to the ground, she added an empathetic nod - or at least, her attempt at one, given that all that could be seen of it was the barest of movements.<br/><br/>Kotori's mind, meanwhile, was rather jumbled mess as she somehow simultaneously tried to think of how to keep an eye on the meeting place and her phone for when the others showed up, what stands she might want to look at - she'd tried to memorise the festival layout the day before, but it was sort of hard to recall the details - and how to keep a conversation going so as to avoid long stretches of uncomfortable silence.<br/><br/>With her eyes darting about and her fingers idly picking at the cloth of her skirt, now that she wasn't actively keeping her nervous habit in check, Kotori finally managed to come up with a brilliant solution - or at least, it seemed to be one in her mind at that moment: <font color=""green"">""Is... is there anything y-you, uhm, would like to look at, Shi-shinchi-san...?""</font> Kotori asked, her voice fading about as quickly as her confidence in the supposed brilliance of just asking Rui about the very topic on her mind.<br/><br/>Even as she briefly glanced back at him, Kotori mentally berated herself for the rather apparent lack of confidence she must be exuding; having been thrown for a loop by even just a small unexpectedness such as another's slightly belated arrival.</div>"

He tried his best to hear her as the festival noise began to become louder, the crowds were beginning to thicken as the lights of the festival looked brighter as the sky darkened, until the only light was from the lanterns around them. She posed the question as to whether there was anything he'd like to see. To be perfectly honest, he wasn't sure, it was his first time to this particular festival, most festivals he went around eating and visiting the shrine... But then he looked back to Kotori,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Well... I guess you in a yukata for a start""</font>, he suggested. Whatever her reaction, it was going to be amusing. Regardless, after letting that sink in and breaking some of the tense atmosphere, he posed the real suggestion, though it was not amiss that it would be nice if Kotori wore one.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""But... I suppose we go take a look at the shrine and then come back here""</font>, it was a reasonable plan. It was a straight walk to the shrine after a small flight of stairs, a few minute walk to, and then few minutes back. The stalls were mainly setup along that path, as well as branching paths leading to other parts of the shrine, so more or less a walk through the main street was his suggestion.</div>"

If she thought about it rationally, there really was no need to be so nervous. Sure, it had been a bit unexpected that the others hadn't shown up yet, but it was still a normal group outing. They'd gone to the beach before and that had been even more embarrassing to her - but even still, she had enjoyed it. So really, she just needed to take a deep breath and remind herself that this was quite the normal festival and-<font color=""slategray"">""Well... I guess you in a yukata for a start.""</font><br/><br/>Despite the orange shading of the festival lamps in the dusk, the rapid flushing of Kotori's cheeks was undeniable as she stared at Rui wide-eyed for a full second or two; an incredulous blinking behind her glasses being the only motion to be seen. It wasn't hard to see that whatever train of thought she may have been on before, it was completely and utterly derailed beyond all hope of rescue. <font color=""green"">""I-I, ah, m-eh? Tha-, uhm...""</font> Once she managed to recover, her thoughts were going a lot faster than her mouth could keep up with and little more than an unintelligible mess could be made out - which only added to the heat she could feel all across her reddened face, leading her to instead bite her lip rather than dig herself even deeper.<br/><br/>Kotori's mind, meanwhile, was racing with a dozen different thoughts. Had she maybe just misunderstood him? Or was Rui addressing someone else? No, a quick glance around confirmed that he was very much indeed speaking to her. Did that mean he actually would have wanted to have seen how she might look in a yukata? That did seem the most obvious, given that it was exactly what he'd just said - but did that mean... he wanted to actually see her? Oddly quickly, Kotori explored the other options in her mind. Perhaps he simply liked the traditional atmosphere of the festival and felt like a yukata would perfectly fit - or maybe he was quite simply just joking. Without reaching a definitive conclusion, Kotori decided to leave it at that - particularly after her cheeks briefly deepened in their shade for a moment there - before finally glancing back at Rui.<br/><br/>It seemed that he had been waiting for just that - as in the very next moment, he spoke up once more; not missing a beat after his previous and most outrageous statement to instead suggest a visit to the shrine itself before heading back to the meeting spot. At his words, Kotori looked over to the shrine. There was already a crowd lazily moving to and fro with much the same idea in mind; various people stopping at the food stalls or amusements along this main path that the festival took.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Kotori started, almost hesitantly after the previous mess she'd made when she'd opened her mouth, before redoubling her volume - which is to say, almost reaching a normal speaking voice. <font color=""green"">""That, uhm, I... I'd li-, ah, I-I mean, that sounds nice,""</font> she said, trying her best to put her embarrassment behind her with a smile - though it ended as a slightly awkward half-smile. As such, Kotori was only too eager to quickly turn to face the way they'd decided to head - particularly when she also felt a brief resurgence of warmth across her face as they began their walk.</div>"

A good portion of it was basically walls of lanterns before they passed through the food stalls, all of which were setup by now and happy festival-goers were already lining up to get something. Rui personally was relieved, festivals in the city were crowded to the point where enjoying things like this were... Difficult, and you would spend more time navigating crowds than actually enjoying the festival.<br/><br/>Soon they made it to the shrine, the surrounding area of it lit up as one would expect, and others were throwing their lots in and their prayers too. Not long it was free and they both stepped up to the shrine. He began pulling some money out to throw in before praying, but he turned to Kotori,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So, what are you going to pray for?""</font>, he asked her.</div>"

Lanterns hung all around, warding off the encroaching night with their warm orange glow. The crowds gave off a persistent, indistinct murmur - always lively, often joyful yet never quite too loud. Once they reached the stands, Kotori occasionally briefly paused to look them over. Even if she had no immediate intention of buying anything just now, it was still interesting to look nonetheless. Occasionally, she was even stopped or waved over when one of the stall owners or fellow visitors happened to recognise her - unsurprisingly, these turned out to mostly be neighbours, given that she lived in the shopping square.<br/><br/>After each of the many regards she was to give to her mother or wishes for her to enjoy the festival, Kotori apologised to Rui for the brief holdup - even though he didn't seem to particularly mind. Without further incident, they managed to reach the shrine itself. It was quite a popular spot - several festival-goers too had taken the opportunity to give their thanks or prayers. However, few stayed for too long and as such they didn't have to wait too long before they too could step forward toward the shrine. As she did so, Kotori paused to think on what she should pray for.<br/><br/>Success with studies? Should she really pester a deity with such simple matters? Perhaps assistance in the mysteries of the Mirror Realm? But with no clear idea in mind, she wouldn't feel particularly comfortable with that either. Maybe she should just try for good fortune in the future - at which point a thought crossed Kotori's mind that caused her to briefly pause in the last last step toward the shrine itself. She managed to stop herself from instinctively raising her hand toward her chest - though the same could not be said for her bespectacled gaze that turned downward, if only for a heartbeat.<br/><br/>With all excitement that had been going on recently, she had almost managed to put it out of her mind - but only almost. Perhaps this might be something that she could ask of the gods - and almost as if he'd been waiting for it, Rui chose that particular moment to speak up, asking her what she would be praying for. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> was Kotori's immediate response, given her surprise at the particular timing before quickly recovering - and then realising that this wasn't exactly something she could or even wanted to just say out loud.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Oh, uhm... good fortune, uhm, i-in the future... maybe...?""</font> It wasn't hard to see that this wasn't really what she wanted to say. Between the unconvincing tone, the way she averted her eyes and how her fingers were nervously playing with the strap of her handbag before she reached inside to pull out some money as well, it wasn't hard to see that there was something else on her mind - but this time, it didn't seem to be the usual attempt at wrapping her head around the strangeness that was the Mirror Realm. Instead, Kotori's mood seemed heavier than that - but lasted only for a brief moment longer before she took a deep breath.<br/><br/>With a half-hearted attempt at a smile restored, Kotori would make her prayer in silence; her eyes closed all the while she stood there with her hands together. She even gave a small bow toward the shrine before she would vacate the spot together with Rui for the next in line - and though they hadn't taken any longer than those before them, Kotori still felt apologetic for holding them up. Still, they had only gone a few steps when Kotori glanced over at Rui - this happened a few times before she finally managed to speak up: <font color=""green"">""Uhm... what did y-you pray for, Shinichi-san?""</font> Whilst the question was posed mostly in an attempt to avoid an awkward silence, there was a certain amount of honest curiosity in Kotori's voice.</div>"

Kotori had bounded the question back at him as he was figuring out a wish, though based on her response, she equally was unsure. What indeed... He looked at her as she asked, and she seemed to be quite earnest in her question based on that look even if she seemed to force out the question, now he didn't want to give her a disappointing answer. So then what should he say instead...<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Hmmmm... Good health I suppose? For you""</font>, he said. That's right, she still had that surgery to do. In actuality he wished for good health for everyone, but of everyone, Kotori had more need of it, she was afterall the only one who visited the hospital frequently, so perhaps it should be more dedicated to her.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I worry sometimes since I see you at the hospital, but you always seem to do well""</font>, he expressed.</div>"

When he did answer, however, she quickly averted her gaze again with what almost looked like a small smile. The odd twist that he would wish for precisely that which she had too strange for her not to find it weirdly funny - even if he had done so unknowingly.<br/><br/>At least, that's what she thought until he added another two words. These caused Kotori to briefly pause mid-step, blinking in surprise and look at Rui; the surprise written as clearly on her face as it was heard in her voice as she perfectly enunciated her thoughts on the matter: <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> Barely catching herself from staring, Kotori hurriedly returned to the previous walking pace with her eyes most definitely fixed on some non-descript point on the ground before her. But before she could rack her brain over just what he meant with that, Rui spoke up once more.<br/><br/>As he did, Kotori seemed to shrink under his words as she bit her lip. This... had been exactly what she had always wished to avoid. She'd never wanted to burden anyone else with worries about herself - she'd have much preferred to silently let the events come to pass, however that may transpire. Yet here Rui stood, stating that in keeping so silent, she had in fact only managed to achieve the opposite. That he believed her to be well was only a small consolation as she almost reflexively opened her mouth to say: <font color=""green"">""Uhm, s-sorry...""</font><br/><br/>But as she did, her steps once more slowed and the inner conflict that was so evident upon her face seemed to come to an equally slow and confused halt. As she'd apologised for being such a burden, Kotori had found herself remembering the aftermath of her kidnapping in May. Then, too, she had apologised for having endangered those that had come to save her of - unbidden and of their own volition. But she also remembered the words that Rui had said after the fight - how sad it was to hide away. And she remembered how she'd resolved to stop doing that; to face the world with courage in her heart - no matter what that may incur.<br/><br/>Yet here she was, back to her old ways of trying to hide herself away. And with that realisation, Kotori took a deep breath before she raised her eyes up from the floor once more. For months she had known that the surgery was soon going to come to pass - and for months, she'd kept her own worries and fears about it to herself. She'd hadn't told anyone else about it- though obviously, it was impossible to hide from the whole Investigation Team after she'd announced it for all to hear back then. She'd tried to keep things under wraps - but even as she tried to be as rational about things as she could, Kotori had still felt a deep-seated fear over what might happen if things went wrong. The fear of causing the very same sadness that her father had three years ago.<br/><br/>But she'd kept all this inside - not even to her mother had she spoken about things, much to her own increasing worries about her daughter. She'd thought that if she just kept up appearances, then things would go smoothly - or if they didn't, then at least she wouldn't have caused any additional worries beforehand. But in doing so, she'd really only achieved the opposite - and, she was starting to realise, keeping her thoughts and feelings on the matter bottled up was only making things worse.<br/><br/>It was with this realisation that Kotori finally spoke up - and, for once, fixed her bespectacled gaze directly on Rui's eyes. <font color=""green"">""Actually, that... is something I would like to talk about.""</font> Equally unusually, the usual quiver or uncertainty was lost in her voice - though still quiet, she spoke steadfastly. <font color=""green"">""I... truth be told, I don't think I've been doing all that well recently.""</font> She realised a moment later how that must sound without any context and thus hastily said: <font color=""green"">""Ah, not physically or anything, everything's fine. Well, mostly. As can be, really. But... it's just...""</font><br/><br/>Kotori's voice trailed off - but this time, not because she'd lost her confidence mid-sentence, but rather because she simply didn't know how to put her own thoughts into words. Nonetheless, she tried but a moment later: <font color=""green"">""I'm... afraid. Scared. Whenever I think about it, I... I can't help but think... what if? If I... if something... I mean, what then? I mean, I know, everything should go fine. I know that, but... what about my mother? And... and all of you, and... but... really, I... at the end, I... I'm just...""</font><br/><br/>Once she'd started talking, it all just came flooding out - and once it had, Kotori finally managed to arrive at that which lay at the very centre of it all. Because underneath all her worries for others and all her attempts at keeping them safe from any consequences, there was one very simple truth: <font color=""green"">""Shinichi-san, I... I'm afraid of dying.""</font> And having spoken those words aloud, Kotori fell silent. At some point, much like her mind, her eyes had begun to wander; ending up at an all too familiar patch of ground as she contemplated her own realisations in her own little world.</div>"

As she said she had gone timid again after their recent forays into the Mirror World. He was wondering what was wrong, and it seems it was the burden of her condition that was the root cause. Though it seems he was right, there always seemed to be something on her mind, though the very last sentence struck a chord as he became more aware of how she was feeling, that line alone was enough. Death was a scary thing, especially as they were so young,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Listen""</font>, he began, he placed his hands on her shoulders, amidst the crowd of the festival. Thankfully it was not so crowded that such a thing was impossible, though noticeable a scene, neither of them raised their voice to attract unwanted attention.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I'll be here for you, you don't have to carry those burdens alone. If you're afraid, I'll be right here if you need me, you don't have to carry this alone""</font>, he continued. No one should carry such a worry on their own really.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So, don't feel so down, I believe you'll get through this no problem, if you have anything on your mind you can tell me about it too""</font>, the intensity of his words began to die down as he finished that sentence, throughout which his intense gaze did not falter. In essence, outside of the mirror worlds, he didn't do much compared to Kazuki who was constantly with Megumi and monitoring the Mirror World, while Kami was investigating the cult itself. Sometimes it made him feel a little bad, so he always followed up with them to make sure he didn't miss anything. Regardless, he felt it best he reassure her for now.</div>"

Blinking in surprise at being brought back to reality so unexpectedly - and even more so in an unexpected manner, Kotori looked momentarily confused before she realised that it was Rui who was now standing right before her. At that point, she noticed a couple of things - for one, they were still standing amidst the crowd, which was slowly moving around them. Second, his hands felt warm to the touch, even though the evening had not grown very chilly yet.<br/><br/>Furthermore, he had fixed his eyes right on hers, which was strangely uncomfortable - yet also not, all at the same time. Still, it did make it hard for her to look away when Rui started speaking - even if she did find herself wanting to, the further he went. Her first instinct would have been to apologise - for causing a scene in public, for putting this on him and without any forewarning no less. But between the relief she felt at having finally spoken up about what had been preoccupying her mind for the longest time and the fact that Rui did not waver for even a moment as he spoke his reassurance that she need not keep going it alone, she couldn't help but feel that it just wouldn't be the right thing to do.<br/><br/>Neither averted their gaze as silence fell at the close of his words - but this lasted only for a brief moment before Kotori remembered where they were and what the warmth on her shoulders was due to. <font color=""green"">""Uhm,""</font> was the first thing that came out of her mouth, unsurprisingly. Returning ever more from the depths of her own mind, her usual mannerisms seemed to be returning - for instance, her fingers were rather restlessly playing over her skirt whilst her eyes were darting about. But then, with a deep breath, at least a small change could perhaps be seen when her eyes found Rui's once again from behind her glasses and, finally, she said: <font color=""green"">""Thank you.""</font><br/><br/>And for a brief moment, her words were accompanied by a small smile that somehow found its way onto her face - and not the usual half-hearted attempt, but rather one stemming from genuine relief and gratitude as she continued: <font color=""green"">""I... I think I need... a little time first. But... thank you. It means a lot to me.""</font> Having spoken, there was brief moment of silence - which was just enough time for Kotori to slowly realise that they were, in fact, still standing in the middle of an ever-moving crowd. And that she could still feel the warmth of Rui's hands upon her shoulders. And that these realisations were rapidly making her cheeks feel at least as warm if not more so.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Ah, for the moment, shall w-we, uhm, continue on o-our way?""</font> Kotori finally suggested; the belated embarrassement all to obvious in her voice and upon her face - both in the far redder shade than her usual pale self and her futile attempt at finding anywhere to look which somehow didn't including either Rui or anyone in the crowd.</div>"

It was a small gesture, but the little things count for people who were shy like her, or so he believes. Kotori always seemed to try to enjoy herself, but he never felt she really did at some points, seeing her smile warmly in such a way for the first time told him all he needed, somehow he had an urge to protect her now. After a pause, he removed his hands from her shoulders as she suggested they continue along the way, he smiled back and responded, <br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Of course, let's get going. I'm sure someone's turned up by now""</font>, surely, right? Well in any case, they were headed back for now.

As they walked with only the many sounds of the ongoing festival about them to accompany them, Kotori's thoughts drifted to what she'd just said to Rui - but as she caught herself thinking upon such things, she quickly shook her head and instead decided that there would be a time for that later, when she was alone. For now, she was at a festival, and so she ought to enjoy it - as Rui had suggested just a little while earlier yet. As such, she looked forward to meeting the others and to go around the festival together.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, this plan had one minor hitch. Namely, the fact that when they arrived at the meeting point, they found themselves in much the same situation as they'd been in when they had originally gone for their walk through the festival: they seemed to be all alone. Looking around, Kotori couldn't find any traces of the fellow investigation team members that she'd hoped to see - and for whom she'd already been trying to craft some excuse as for why they'd already gone on ahead rather than waiting for their arrival. Slight confusion and slighter yet worry crept into Kotori's mind as she glanced over to Rui - but even he didn't seem to know where the others were.<br/><br/>Not having thought of this possibility, Kotori was a little lost for what to do - at least until she remembered that she still had her phone with her. Quickly digging it out of her handbag, she checked it for any messages to indicate that the others had similarly decided to head out without them or that they'd been delayed - but to no avail. She was just about to start mustering the courage to ask Rui for his thoughts on the matter when her phone suddenly played a tone and buzzed in her hand. Kotori almost jumped at the unexpected notification of a received message and only barely managed to suppress a surprised cry - evidently, she wasn't exactly the most avid user of her phone nor particularly used to actually receiving messages or calls.<br/><br/>With a barely audible muttering to herself, Kotori quickly inspected the source of her surprise - and found only yet more surprise when she saw that it was from Shizuka. Apparently, she couldn't make it after all, but still wished her all the best at the festival. Kotori might have wondered at the odd phrasing were it not for the fact that another message arrived just then - followed in very short order by several more. Were she not more preoccupied with her surprise, Kotori may have wondered about the exact timing when, one by one, everyone else turned out to have some unforeseen commitment that unfortunately precluded their participation in the festival.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Oh...""</font> Kotori couldn't help but feel a little dejected - this did put quite a damper on the whole plan of going around the festival with everyone when just two turned out to have turned up. Glancing over to the other half of said two, Kotori saw that Rui no doubt too had found out that no one else was going to be showing up - and probably was a little disappointed with his situation, too. Not only had he already taken the time to go around the festival once with her, but now he wouldn't even get to see the girls in their yukatas - which Kotori had little doubt at least some of them would have worn.<br/><br/>Kotori only felt a little more guilty when she realised that, rather than anything he'd probably been hoping to for, Rui had instead just been laden with the sudden revelation of her own personal problems with no forewarning - in fact, she wouldn't have been surprised at this point if he was just annoyed with the whole situation and wanted to just go home; even if she could find no traces of frustration in the furtive glances she stole at his face.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> Kotori started, realising only then that she didn't really know what she wanted to say and took a moment to adjust her glasses despite her gaze being fixed on some non-descript patch of ground before her. <font color=""green"">""I... uhm, it doesn't seem like, well, the others are coming, so...""</font> Kotori's voice trailed off at that point when she failed to find any way to say what she wanted. Of course, she could fully understand if Rui had had enough of the festival and wanted to go home - but at the same time, she found it strangely difficult to actually say that outright and instead, with a nervous glance his way, waited to see what his response would be.</div>"

At around the same time as Kotori opened up her phone, he too ended up doing so, just a string of messages from one after the other, having various different plans. Akane had a deadline to meet so she was able to come tomorrow, since Summer Comiket was coming soon, very soon, and Alexei was dragged to help her. Matt and Shizuka made last minute plans to do something else but were coming to the festival another day, while Ryan had a family dinner to attend, then there was Sen and Mako who both had very vague messages saying they couldn't come, it stood out since those two were the only vague ones. Then came Ayano who also spoke for Kami saying he came down with a summer cold and she was caring for him. As he scrolled down a myriad of other familiar names had not been lit up for a long time too.<br/><br/>He let out a somewhat dejected sigh, but then was reminded that he wasn't alone here at least. Kotori's voice broke his train of thought as he turned to her. She seemed to have entered a similar mood, but it would do no good to just go back now. He gave it a bit of thought, before sighing again,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I guess it can't be helped""</font>, he began. Everyone's beginning to go their own paths, and that was fine.

At that, Kotori's gaze drifted back down to the ground. Considering that they'd already taken a brief tour of the grounds, he probably wasn't going to be too interested in doing the same again, she figured, considering that they'd mostly done so to tide over the waiting for the others who, as he said, had their own plans - and they, in turn, should make their own.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm... right...""</font> she said, even as she began wondering just what to do with the rest of the evening now that they were going their separate ways. She took a breath before shifting her eyes back up at Rui, who turned to face her - but just as she opened her mouth to say the inevitable goodbye, he held out his hand toward her. <font color=""green"">""Eh?""</font> she said instead, her brow furrowed in confusion - at least for the few moments before she realised, in time with his own words, that she had actually just misunderstood him. Apparently, the plans he was talking about didn't mean going their separate ways - in fact, quite the opposite.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""E-eh?!""</font> she most eloquently put her surprise before realising that he was waiting for her response - or at least, an intelligble one. <font color=""green"">""A-ah, uhm, I...""</font> she fumbled for a moment before settling for a quick nod. <font color=""green"">""Ye-yes, uhm, let's,""</font> she finally managed, as she quickly perched her glasses back upon her nose following the hasty head movement - which led to her sight coming to rest of Rui's still outstretched hand. She blinked once, twice, before looking back up at Rui, then down again - for some reason, it almost looked like he was holding it out for her.<br/><br/>That, of course, had most assuredly be her misconception - no, there was probably some other explanation for the gesture. But unfortunately, Kotori couldn't seem to come up with any on the quick. Should she just ignore it? No, that would probably seem rather rude. Maybe ask? No, she'd already wasted so much time just thinking on it - she really shouldn't keep him waiting even longer. And so, before she'd quite made heads of the situation, she found herself laying her hand in Rui's - and almost immediately felt her face heat up as she realised how this might appear to any onlookers.<br/><br/>Kotori hastily glanced to either side, hoping not to catch anyone looking in their direction - and was rather relieved when she didn't do so. However, she did notice that by now, the lanterns all around were making up the majority of the illumination. The scenery was cast in a warm orange light, setting the festive mood for a warm summer evening. The amount of people, she noticed, had also increased quite a bit - it seemed that only with the dying of the light did the festival truly come to life.<br/><br/>Of course, the people! That must be it, Kotori thought - the reason that Rui had offered his hand in the first place. It wouldn't do to get separated in the crowd and having to spend more time trying to find one another, after all. Yes, that made sense, Kotori thought with a nod - even as her eyes wandered to the sight of Rui's hand grasping hers. Only now did she notice how her whole hand fit inside his. Were all boys' hands this large? Or were hers perhaps just small? She could feel a slight roughness, too, probably stemming from his time spent at the kendo club - and in the mirror world, where he regularly put his sword skills to the test on the frontlines and protecting those further back.<br/><br/>And it was warm, too - much like they had been when he'd placed his hands on her shoulders before. Of course, all of this did not help in the slightest at abating the particular shade of red that her cheeks had chosen for the occasion of her over-thinking - even as, in turn, she began to worry if her hand might be too cold or sweaty. In fact, her mind was so preoccupied with this strangest of arrangements that she hardly even noticed where Rui was leading her until they slowed as they reached the first food stalls.<br/><br/>In all the hubbub, Kotori hadn't even noticed how long they'd put off eating, seeing as the original plan had probably been to do so with the others - and she was feeling a bit peckish. Besides, a festival foods were to be enjoyed at a festival, she figured - they weren't an everyday occurence after all. As such, Kotori spoke up - or at least she did on the second or third try: <font color=""green"">""Uhm... Sh-Shinichi-san? A-are you, ah, uhm... I mean, is, uh, is there anything y-you would like to eat?""</font> As she spoke, she tried - and failed - to not think too much of the warmth surrounding her hand; all the while glancing in any direction but down - and only occasionally up at Rui for the briefest of moments as she awaited his response.</div>"

She seemed to be anxious, well not quite anxious but more she was flushed red. Ahh... Could this be a date, now that it's just them two? Well there's little point thinking hard about that right now, but the idea didn't seem bad to him. She seemed to be waiting for him to answer her question, what to eat... Indeed, a difficult question considering how much they saw on the way here, including shaved ice, yakitori, yakisoba, and a load of other summer foods and even games at different stands.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""I wonder indeed, maybe we should go back in now and whatever catches our eye, we'll get some""</font>, he suggested to her.</div>"

As such, they would continue along the various stalls and stands and occasionally stopping for a closer look. On occasion, Kotori would also try her best - which, by the looks of it, wasn't particularly convincing - to appear somewhat non-chalant as they passed by some stands. Specifically, these stands were those where she happened to recognise the owner as someone she knew, such as her neighbour two doors down - mostly because it would most definitely be far better to avoid any embarrassing misunderstandings about why, exactly, she was visiting the festival with just one instead of many friends rather than having to explain it at a later point in time.<br/><br/>Aside from that, the two could take a little more time to look at all the festival had to offer, whereas before they'd only really been trying to pass a little bit of time with a brief walk through. In the warm glow of the various lamps, they could not actually take their time and appreciate the many offerings and, in the case of a particular food stand, even try their wares. But even though there were a great many things to see and the overall atmosphere was very much a pleasant one to enjoy, Kotori did find herself occasionally slightly distracted - for once though, it wasn't due to her mind wandering to the mysteries of the mirror realm, but rather the person who stood beside her. Or in front, depending on what walking arrangements the crowds around them actually allowed. Yet at the same time, she didn't speak up all that much - but thankfully, the hustle and bustle of the whole festival ensured that her quietness didn't feel particularly awkward.<br/><br/>Either way though, Kotori did quite enjoy the second and slower walk through the festival grounds; even though she occasionally thought it a a bit of a shame that the others had not been able to come whenever she saw something about the festival that she thought they too might have enjoyed - a list of things which, as they approached the largest square that of the premise upon which a bonfire had been constructed, would quickly come to include the traditional dance that was about to be held thereupon. Though this was mostly due to herself - Kotori always had enjoyed watching a dance, after all.</div>"

As good as the food was they had enough fun going through the crowds, some familiar faces spotted them and he could suspect their thoughts, though they didn't recognize him too well, mostly just Kotori. It seems she meets a lot of people working at her family flower store.<br/><br/>Soon they reached the center and it seems the festive dancing has begun around the stage, with drums ringing out a beat for people to dance to. He stepped forward and grabbed Kotori's hand, <font color=""slategray"">""how about we dance a bit?""</font>, he suggested. Though knowing her, she would perhaps be a bit too shy to simply agree, and so he ended up pulling her along anyway.<br/><br/>As they danced to the rhythm, matching other people's moves, they began to learn how this dance works. Bon odori was pretty welcoming as far as dances go, but every area had their own dance and some would cycle between multiple region's dances, but you could just join and dance if you pleased. Rui helped Kotori out with her moves, at the very least this dance wasn't very demanding, some simple moves and gestures to a beat, no more no less, to the beat of taiko drums.<br/><br/>After awhile they would leave to rejoin the crowds by the stalls, hopefully for some food, <font color=""slategray"">""so was it fun?""</font>, he asked, still holding her hand as they stepped through the crowds.</div>"
12393,Persona - The True Self,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76093-persona-the-true-self,"['Large Group', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Slice of Life', 'School']",2018-09-26 22:34:00,Takaru,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;""><span class=""bb-b"">Kotori Shirohane - Warakuma Central Shrine | Wednesday, July 13 2015</span><br/><br/>Standing still a little way off from where the actual dance was being held, Kotori couldn't help but smile a little at the sight. There were all sorts of people lining up; some taking their first steps and others seemingly moving in step with the drum effortlessly. There she saw an elderly couple who seemed to have made a tradition of the dance for years, over there was a parent that was mostly helping along their rather excited child. But wherever she looked, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves - it was a sight that had her so absorbed that it took her a moment to realise that Rui, still standing beside her, was speaking. And furthermore, that he was speaking to hear.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Hm?""</font> she went, turning her head slightly to look at Rui rather than the ongoing dance - and most decidedly not down at their hands, the feeling of which she had most definitely come to get used to. At least, that's what she told herself every time until she felt even the gentlest of tugs and her attempted self deception came crumbling down once more. However, it took her another moment before she actually realised just what he had said.<br/><br/>Kotori's immediate response was simply to blink at him, so odd seemed Rui's question. Of course she wasn't against dancing - but surely he didn't mean it like that. She'd never actually participated in any dances herself, so there was no way she could do so now - and in front of a whole plethora of strangers no less! And besides, that would look almost like - wait, why were the dancers suddenly getting closer? And why did her hand - and, by proxy, her cheeks - suddenly feel a slight bit warmer?<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Sh-Shinichi-san!""</font> Kotori's voice was a mix between a whisper, trying not to draw too much attention, and a surprised, albeit muted, cry, when she realised that he had nonchalantly grasped her hand and was now moving toward where the dance itself was being held. Kotori desperately racked her brain for something to say before it all undoubtedly ended up in a huge embarrassement - not only for herself but, even worse, for him too. But before she could come up with anything, they had already reached the other dancers and within moments, they had somehow slipped in with them.<br/><br/>Kotori's mind was racing between a way to make Rui realise that there was no way she'd be able to be a fitting dance partner - there wasn't a moment's doubt that he either knew all the moves or would just effortlessly pick them up as he always did - and trying not to make a mess of the dance that had begun then and then. In her best attempt at not making things even more embarrassing than they already were, Kotori quickly glanced over at the lady before her and tried to copy what she was doing - albeit with movements that were a lot more stiff and belated, what with all that was on her mind at that moment.<br/><br/>Kotori barely dared move her gaze elsewhere - for one, she didn't want to confirm her fears that the entirety of the crowd that surrounded the dancers were staring at her stumbling her way through this dance when everyone else was making a grand performance of it. For another, she dared even less to glance up at Rui - who, Kotori was convinced, was probably regretting his choice in dance partners already.<br/><br/>At least, that's what she thought until she heard his voice as he discretely warned her of an upcoming twist and that she should just follow his lead. Kotori had little time to process this before the drum beat briefly changed rhythms and she found herself suddenly standing face to face with Rui - which, in turn, meant that she had little in the way of dancers to try and copy the moves from. Furthermore, she had little choice but to look up at him at that point - but as she hesitantly did so, surprise came over her face.<br/><br/>Rather than any sign of annoyance or disappointment, Rui was instead smiling - a sight which briefly put a halt to Kotori's otherwise incessant worries. And with her self-inflicted awkwardness momentarily lifted, the admittedly simple steps of the dance came with little hesitation and only the slightest hint from Rui via gentle tugs of her hand that were resting in his all throughout. Though she clearly wasn't at ease with herself, Kotori nonetheless found herself actually enjoying the simple act of following the beat of the drum with each step that she took - even if her gaze couldn't rest on Rui for too long at a time before she felt the need to avert her bespectacled eyes.<br/><br/>And as they moved, Rui would occasionally call out the next move ahead of time before gently leading her through the motions - still a little stiff for fear of messing things up, Kotori still did her best to follow his lead. Toward the end, they actually seemed to find a semblance of a rhythm that she could follow along even in her state - a feeling which slowly managed to bring a hint of a smile to her face.<br/><br/>But alas, they could hardly spend the whole evening dancing and so they eventually stepped out from the dancing folk - though with how focused she'd been on both the movement and trying to calm her racing mind, Kotori couldn't have hazarded even the faintest guess as to how much time they'd just spent. Somewhere in the meantime, she'd managed to push back her fear that all the onlookers were fixed on her and every little mistake she'd made - a fear which turned out to be unsubstantiated when they rejoined the crowd with not a single word or gaze their way.<br/><br/>From all the excitement, Kotori's breathing was still a bit elevated and her face still felt rather warm - and probably wouldn't quite return to her usual shade until the similar warmth surrounding her hand was lifted. At the same time though, she felt no small measure of relief at no longer being the center of attention - even if only in her own mind. But at the same time, a small part of her also felt almost disappointed - but before could dwell on that, Rui's voice once more broke through her reverie to ask if she'd had fun.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Eh? O-oh, y-, uhm, I, I think so, y-yes, yes,""</font> Kotori said whilst nodding - truthfully and, rarely enough, with a small smile. Because even through all her fears and doubts and embarrassement, she couldn't deny that she did indeed have fun. As they headed back toward the food stands - leaving Kotori to realise yet again that no, she had not even slightly gotten used to the feeling of their hands touching in order to not get lost in the crowd.<br/><br/>Distraced as such, it took her a moment to realise that for all the things he seemed to be doing to put her at ease, she hadn't even stopped to ask if any of this was actually enjoyable for him, too. An attempt or two later, Kotori finally spoke up again. <font color=""green"">""Uhm... was... was it fun for y-you, too?""</font> she asked as they were already headed for the food stalls; her eyes once again finding all sorts of most fascinating things to focus on - and thereby avoiding all but the most occasional of glances at Rui.</div>"

It was much more comfortable walking like this, rather than pulling her along. It was getting some looks until the realization was that they looked like a couple. Rui didn't seem to mind this at all, in fact he was finding Kotori more and more endearing now. Their walk slowed to give them more time to see the stalls and decide what to eat.<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""So then, you must be hungry after all that... Go on, pick what you want, don't be shy""</font>, he offered. There were all sorts of festival food, okonomiyaki, takoyaki, karaage, yakisoba, yakitori, candy apples, a load of sweets and shaved ice stalls, as it was a pretty warm summer night, refreshment stands selling drinks, some games further along and so on such as shooting, goldfish and turtle capturing, and some other classics, along with prizes. There was so much to do and eat, it wouldn't be possible to do it all tonight, but not that it was necessary. Rui had no personal preferences, everything here looked pretty good to him, but right now he wanted to know what Kotori wanted. He was given quite a bit of money from his parents, so he was pretty free to buy a fair bit.</div>"

However, his words did put her at ease - at least for the brief moment it took before she realised that he had slowed his steps and let go of her hand. Whilst she most definitely hadn't gotten used to the feeling of her hand being held by his, she did wonder what had moved him to do so - only to feel his hand instead coming to rest at her side.<br/><br/>For a brief moment, Kotori's expression turned to slight confusion - but this lasted only for a heartbeat before her face quite suddenly and most undeniably flushed with a bright shade of red once she realised just how they must look right now. Whilst Rui seemed quite nonplussed by the whole situation, Kotori's experience was quite the opposite - even more than before, she held her eyes behind her glasses fixed very intently on the ground in front of her; barely daring to lift her gaze unless absolutely needed to avoid walking into any fellow festival-goer. She held her hands close to herself, fingers clenched and only the constant motion of walking abating her sudden need to find some release for her nerves that would otherwise undoubtedly have led to her picking at her skirt.<br/><br/>However, she wasn't afforded this luxury - but her mind raced nonetheless, trying to come up with some semblance of explanation for this most embarrassing of situations that she now found herself in. Unfortunately, she couldn't really get anywhere without immediately imagining just how they must look right now to an outsider - a boy and a girl, walking this close together? Undoubtedly, there would be some people who would misconstrue this as a couple out on a pleasant walk - a thought that brought a fresh wave of heat to Kotori's cheeks - when no such thing was actually going on.<br/><br/>No, no, no, there was really nothing going on here - after all, this was really just a group outing; even if the group size turned out to be a bit smaller than they'd originally thought. And really, it was probably just a bit easier to navigate the crowd for Rui, rather than having to occasionally look back and make sure she was still following him, even if their touching hands probably let him know all he needed. And really, it wasn't as if anything else could be going on - that was really just silly. The popular boy and the awkward girl going out was really just fantasy, after all - something Kotori would probably quite enjoy reading, but not something that actually happened in reality.<br/><br/>Just as she managed to convince herself of this and bring the shade of red that had taken hold upon her face from 'blindingly obvious' to merely 'possible to miss, albeit only on the briefest of glances', Rui's voice interrupted her thoughts - and unmade what little progress Kotori had just managed, what with the source being quite a bit closer than before. <font color=""green"">""Eh? Pi-? Oh, ri-right, uhm...""</font> It took her a moment to realise what he'd just said - which forced her to raise her eyes up from the ground and over the nearby stalls; making sure that in doing so, she could avoid directly looking at Rui for fear of her cheeks betraying her once more.<br/><br/>Truth be told, she hadn't paid any attention to the various stalls that they'd passed whatsoever - but put on the spot as she was, it was a little late to admit this. And rather than risk any questions as to why if she actually did, Kotori quickly decided on one of the nearest stall. <font color=""green"">""S-some, uhm, Ta-takoyaki... maybe?""</font> she said, a little belatedly, after making sure that the stall owner didn't happen to be someone she knew, what with living in the shopping district - that would undoubtedly end up being an embarrassment that she'd never be able to live down.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, preoccupied as she was, Kotori didn't quite catch the fact that Rui wasn't just asking for her preference, but actually extending an invitation - a realisation that came a little too late to protest as he'd already stepped forward, using a lucky lull in the number of customers to place an order. Kotori was almost thankful for the fact that this meant he had to, at least briefly, leave her side - as this gave her a moment to try and calm herself down and maybe cool off the seemingly constant warmth that was emanating from her cheeks. Unfortunately, this endeavour was not met with particularly much success when the stall owner's confirmation of Rui's order ended with a joking ""for the young couple"" - and loud enough for at least some people to give a curious glance.<br/><br/>As such, Kotori was still feeling no less embarrassed when Rui stepped back to hand her the small plate of takoyaki. <font color=""green"">""Th-thank you,""</font> she more mumbled than said as she hesitantly accepted the food. It was only now that she actually held it in her hands that she realised that it might be a bit difficult to eat whilst simultaneously walking and navigating the crowds. <font color=""green"">""Uhm...""</font> she started as she looked about - and luckily soon noticed a bench not too far off. Evidently, most of the festival goers seemed to prefer to actually walk about, as it happened to also be unoccupied.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""Uhm, shall w-we, uhm, sit? Ah, o-over there, I mean,""</font> Kotori said, making a vague gesture somewhere in the direction of the bench - whilst only now glancing up at Rui and even then just for a brief moment to await his answer. In fact, as she thought on it, a brief break to catch her breath after all this excitement would be quite nice anyway.</div>"

The stall owner was cheerful, like a lot of the other people around them, as he was making it, he recognized Kotori, and asked if he was her boyfriend. Between the two, Kotori was someone who lived and knew a lot of people in this town, a fact which Rui was reminded of as this was his first year here. Would she answer or would he? It would be irresponsible to leave the entire thing to her, so he answered instead,<br/><br/><font color=""slategray"">""Does it seem that way? Maybe we should be""</font>, he answered, he and the shopkeep laughed before he would bid them a good meal. They of course, weren't... Yet? He wasn't sure how she felt, and asking her outright would be tactless, but for tonight they should simply enjoy the festival as it is. They got their takoyaki and left the crowds, finding a bench a small ways off under the trees.<br/><br/>It was probably a bit awkward a thought for Kotori, but the two simply sat there watching the sky, and the festival. They'd go and enjoy some of the games on display like the goldfish catching and shooting gallery, before watching the fireworks at the end of it. They weren't as grand as a fireworks festival, but Rui preferred this over the ones in the city that were not only grand, but ridiculously crowded.<br/><br/>As the two sat and idled away the rest of the night, he thought to himself. A life in this town wouldn't be so bad. There were some things to solve first, but they were on the case of course. Eventually the two would leave as Rui walked her home, before he would head home as well.</div>"

As such, she didn't really mind the silence that came between Rui and her as they enjoyed their festival meals - it was almost comfortable, in a way. Of course, with all the sounds and voices that came with such a festival, it wasn't really like there was such a thing as silence anyway. But either way, she enjoyed the opportunity to just relax and catch her breath before they would head back into the crowd once more.<br/><br/>Not long after, they would find themselves visiting a number of amusement stands as they made their way through the festival grounds - Kotori even participated in a few; if mostly after a quick encouragement from Rui who, in turn, seemed quite at ease with the variety of tasks the games presented. As they did, time just seemed to fly - for before long, a reminder was announced about the firework displayed beginning soon. This being the highlight of the festival, there was no way they were going to miss it - and as such, they found another bench which offered a good view of the night sky; neither too close for comfort nor too far to miss even a single sight of the fireworks.<br/><br/>Throughout the display, Kotori had to keep herself from jumping several times when some of the more quietly rising fireworks suddenly exploded with a thunderous boom; their sparkling light spreading illuminating the festival ground for brief flashes at a time. Still, she did enjoy the whole event and all throughout the display even had a small smile upon her lips as she kept her eyes fixed on the various glowing trails that streaked heavenwards before bursting into brilliant displays of colour.<br/><br/>As the firework display came to an end, so too did the festival itself start to wind down. With the main highlight of the evening now in the past, the crowds were starting to visibly thin; even though the day's warmth still lingered as the evening slowly began to give way to night. Upon closer inspection, Rui and Kotori realised that they had, in fact, pretty much completed a whole round through the festival - and with how things were slowly coming to a close, decided to call it a night as well. Needless to say, Kotori's attempts at protesting whether Rui really needed to walk with her when it might not be along his way were summarily rejected. The fact that she didn't make all to many attempts was probably just down to how late it was getting.<br/><br/>A little while - Kotori was a bit surprised that the way back somehow seemed almost shorter even though she'd been in quite a hurry the first time around - the two arrived in front of the Shirohane Flowershop. As the time for parting came, Kotori thanked Rui - both for spending the evening with her and subsequently walking her home. She was about to also mumble and apology for probably not having been the most interesting company that he could have visited the festival with - but before she could, Rui instead wished her a good night. <font color=""green"">""Ah, uhm, yes, good night to you too, Shinichi-san,""</font> she said, giving a small bow as she did. A brief rummage through her handbag later, she unlocked the door; taking a moment to glance back - and give a small wave when she saw Rui still waiting for her to actually get home before he too would be on his way.<br/><br/><font color=""green"">""I'm home,""</font> Kotori announced when she stepped into the living room - only to find her smiling mother already sitting there with two cups of tea before her; the steam still rising up from them. Unsurprisingly, it would only be after Kotori had told the whole tale of her evening before she would actually be able to head to bed for the night. Of course, Kotori had skipped the occasional detail in her retelling - chief among them being the conversation that she'd had with Rui about her fears for her own future.<br/><br/>It would be a long time before Kotori finally managed to get to sleep. In the quiet dark, she tried to make sense of her own thoughts on the matter - which proved oddly difficult whenever her mind seemed to insist on reminding her of some particularly embarrassing moment of the evening in excrutiating detail.</div>"

The valley held a strange air of mystique to it as the picturesque mist pervaded just far away enough to hide what may lurk beyond, but not enough that they didn’t know where they were going. They entire trip started out just outside the village of the plains, taking them past rice fields that some of the members of the party would recognize as similar to Warakuma’s, usually it was those who lived a bit further out of the modernizing inner town. Further on was the valley that was visible from the rice fields, and even further was the large mountain that was likely the final destination. Thickets of bamboo would obscure the route itself, within were various abandoned shrines and a few beautiful locations within that triggered phantoms similar to the village’s, but as usual they were not harmful. Once more though, it seemed to tell a tale of two happy lovers.<br/><br/>Today though it was finally time to see what the end of it all had in store. A town, set upon the mountain. Even as they stepped within it’s barrier, they didn’t go further than ten paces forward. The gigantic, gaping maw in the side of the mountain alone would’ve been enough to make anyone pause, but it was the various charms and seals placed around that entryway that was of note. It just screamed danger, like a demon existed within the mountain. Seen in the real world, some people would not be put off too much, but when you’ve been fighting metaphysical demons for a few months, it was hard to take this lightly at all.<br/><br/>“Hm, so then… Whatever is in there may answer some questions. Kami, Rui, have you both noticed? There are no cultists in this entire little world”, noted Kazuki.<br/><br/>“Aight, I had figured they wouldn’t use this world as a hq of any sort, but it seems strange to me none of them are here at all. But it makes no sense… By all accounts the leader should be here, but he took none of his retainers… Or rather, none of them followed him? But they take his orders? How are they getting their orders and targets?”, it was strange indeed, the answer was likely when they found the leader himself. Kami had figured out that the cultist leader had actually disappeared long ago, even while Kazuki had been rescuing people throughout last year. It did coincide with the cultist leader’s wife’s death though.<br/><br/>“Well in any case, I’d been snooping around my father’s investigations, they can’t make heads or tails of it either, but cultist members have begun being captured in recent weeks, and their operation was found, looks like they won’t be able to kidnap anyone anymore… But what didn’t make sense was they said they were getting orders from their leader, yet there was no communication device found that could’ve been used to communicate with him”, so the real question was how and why was the cultist leader doing this… Was he really still alive?<br/><br/>“The answer lies within, or hopefully it does. For now let’s just get this out of the way, and see if this fight will also gleam us any useful information”, like some of the fights before did… They seemed to be bits and pieces of the cultist leader’s memories.<br/><br/>As the party began to near the giant maw of a cave, the talismans along the edges and pillars surrounding them began to become active, glowing as the sky darkened. Rui and Kami stood at the forefront as the cave’s darkness came to life, a pair of gigantic fangs glinting violently as a giant tendril flew out, striking at the party. Rui and Kami both summoned their Personas just in time to absorb the blow, defending Kotori and Ryan from the sudden attack. It was fortunate that the two most suited for direct confrontation were in front.<br/><br/>Regardless, as soon as the tendril began to retract back into the darkness, having been identified as a snake’s head, a lady began crawling out of the darkness, reaching towards the party, before being dragged back in. Then silence… A long pause followed as the ground lurched, two… Three… No four? No, eight gigantic snakes began to emerge from the darkness, at the point where all are joined was the lady from earlier, now upon close inspection, the body belonged to a Persona known as Kushinada-Hime, and the eight-headed snake was most certainly Yamata no Orochi.<br/><br/>“To formations, Kami, you and me keep the other two safe, Kotori, Ryan, pelt it spells”, he ordered. As soon as he made those orders, the rest of the party further back found themselves turning around as shadows began to attempt to cross the long winding path that was behind them. It seems as always they were going to be occupied once more while the main party fought at the front. Ayano was to be the main navigator for the fight against Yamata no Orochi.<br/><br/>“Huh…? No it’s not just Yamata, the other shadow is also a threat”, Ayano’s warning was confirmed as soon as the limp Kushinada-Hime opened her mouth, screaming as a blast of wind was thrown at them, buffeting them for just a moment. It was a warning shot.<br/><br/>“Well that just makes things interesting”, so now it was a question of which first… The caster at the bottom, or the snakes that were a more active threat? But with 8 heads, they were going to need some serious firepower.<br/><br/>---<br/>Kotori<br/><br/>It was with the usual mix of curiosity and apprehension that Kotori followed the others on the path leading through the valley. Her eyes darted between the strange sights and the occasional shadowy figures that presented themselves, never sure what might be hiding in the former or whether the latter might strike out at any point. Yet as they carried on, the only thing the phantoms seemed to be interested in was each other. As the group continued, the figures were seen sometimes walking hand in hand, sometimes skipping along or even hugging one another - it would almost have been sweet, were it not all happening in this Mirror Realm. Yet despite it, Kotori couldn't quite help a small smile finding its way to her lips.<br/><br/>However, this would pass the closer the group got to the village ahead - or, more specifically, the large mountain upon which it was built. Torn into its flank was a huge, oddly mouth-shaped opening - just jagged enough to make one wonder if it was natural or man-made. The sense of foreboding was not at all helped by the fact that it seemed to be the only way forward - Kotori was most definitely not looking forward to having to explore a dark and sinister cave from every which crevice a murderous shadow might leap forth. And that was before she even appreciated the almost ridiculous number of seals hung around or over the entrance. Were this not the Mirror Realm, her rational mind might have told her that this was merely the result of superstition and probably could be traced back to generations of fearmongering rumours. But even then, she still would not have wanted to set foot inside - and this sentiment was doubled now that she stood here in a place where she couldn't be sure that a flickering shadow was merely a trick of her mind.<br/><br/>Kotori's nervousness steadily grew as Rui and Kaminari discussed both the recent findings and the immediate plan of action. Unsurprisingly, they opted for the only path forward. Hesitantly, she followed the two a short distance behind; glancing every which way from behind her glasses in case this turned out to be a trap - or rather, to spot just what kind of trap it was. She was at least a little thankful that Ryan opted to stay behind too; perhaps in case any shadows decided to sneak up from behind. Before any had such a chance, however, the shadows within the cave itself seemed to shift.<br/><br/>Squinting against the blackness ahead, Kotori would have been a moment too slow to react to the sudden attack that burst forth from within - but luckily for her, both Rui Kaminari's reactions were fast enough as Askr and Zeus warded off the ferocious first strike. Only once it began to retreat - and Kotori had gotten over her initial surprise at the sudden attack - did she realise that the long shadowy form was, in fact, a snake. Yet strangely, the next thing to peel out from the cave's shadows was not this slithering shadow, but rather a woman. The whole group tensed when the shadowy female raised a hand toward them - yet nothing happened. At least, not initially - for a few moments later the darkness coalesced into the same snake as before - but then another. And then again, and again - before finally, all eight heads of a shadow serpent had broken free of their bindings, the seals and charms upon the cave having faded and released the monster within.<br/><br/>There was little time for Kotori to wonder about how the story of Kushinada-Hime and Yamata no Orochi might be connected to the leader of the Junsei Sekai Tensei cult as Rui was quick to order everyone into combat formations - and with her attention focused forward, she barely noticed that the second group further back had in turn engaged the encroaching mass of shadows that were pouring toward the village. The immediate plan was for Ryan and her to strike from afar whilst Rui and Kaminari would stand guard before actively engaging with an unknown foe. Kotori followed this with a quick nod, a deep breath and the slightly belated summoning of her persona: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime,""</font> she called - a call that was answered with the form of the flower-wielding shrine maiden materialising above her.<br/><br/>However, the enemy was not content to just let them act with impunity - before Ryan or Kotori could cast a spell, Kushinada-Hime sudden perked up and, following Ayano's quick warning, released a piercing cry that slashed the wind and cut the air, sending it blasting against the party. Kotori instinctively closed her eyes and threw her arms up over her face; wincing at the sudden wind - even if it was quite at the intensity of a outright attack. From the look of things, the eight-headed serpent was not the only threat - which meant that they now had yet another target to contend with. Still, Kotori beat back her hesitations and fear thanks to the calming presence of her persona and the confidence exuded by her fellow party members.<br/><br/>With only a small measure of doubt still lingering in her mind, Kotori raised her hand and called upon Kikuri-Hime. <font color=""green"">""Zionga,""</font> she said, her hand raised toward the octuple-headed snake - and, even as the dark clouds gathered were momentarily pierced by a blinding bolt of lightning, she hoped that she would be able to do at least some damage with her offensive spells.<br/><br/>--Ryan--<br/><br/>The mountains of Seto were strangely mesmerising to Ryan. He knew that this entire world was basically out to kill him, but it had a beauty to it despite it’s danger. It was like he was an intruder to this sacred place, and it sought to eject him from it’s border. It was almost enough to distract him from the tragic tale of the cult leader, but not enough. It was heartbreaking really, they seemed so happy in these… memories perhaps? Resonant feelings? Regardless of what they were, they were not real, only phantoms of what once existed. That’s what Ryan thought anyways. <br/><br/>They soon arrived to the mountain entrance, a large and foreboding cave that looked as if the mountain itself was alive and wished to swallow them whole. And they were going to throw themselves right into it’s maw, did that make them brave or stupid? Ryan chuckled lightly as he mused upon the thought, observing the many seals around the cave as well. Perhaps they were holding something back.<br/><br/>As they got closer and closer, the seals began to glow, Ryan pulling out his knives cautiously as he kept one eye on the seals and the other on the cave. A giant tendril struck from the darkness, with Rui and Kami summoning their Personas to defend Ryan and Kotori from the hyperspeed strike. The tendril retreated just as fast, but Ryan realised what it really was around the same time Kotori did. It was a snake, and a big one too. It disappeared into the darkness once more and something else began to emerge, Ryan summoning his Persona to get ready for another blow. But there was no blow this time as a woman emerged from the cave, crawling and reaching towards the party in what appeared to be terror. Ryan had to hold himself back from running to save her as he looked at her a bit more closely, not getting a good enough look as she was quickly dragged back into the cave. He gritted his teeth and inhaled deeply, hoping he hadn’t made the wrong choice. <br/><br/>Then the world exploded into action as eight snakes emerged from the darkness, the legendary Yamata-no-Orochi was here to consume them. The snakes were so large and imposing that he almost ignored the lady from before, now identified as the figure from legend Kushinada-Hime. Rui barked out orders, Ryan quickly following suit as he moved into formation like the soldier he is. His eyes narrowed as Kushinada sent out a blast of wind at them, it barely even ruffled his hair thanks to his impressive wind resistance.<br/><br/>And thus the battle began, with Kotori striking out against Yamata no Orochi with a mighty bolt of thunder, Ryan narrowed his eyes at the woman he had sought to save not even a minute ago. <font color=""royalblue"">”I suppose the only way to save a Shadow is to eradicate them completely. Come, Geraint!”</font> Geraint smashed into view above Ryan, raising his sword as he cast Heat Riser on Ryan. The added speed boost from it gave Ryan just enough time to Charge up as well, getting ready for a big attack on Kushinada-Hime.<br/><br/>-------------------------<br/><br/>As the battle progressed, Rui found himself darting between the snake heads, before delivering a Gale Slash, managing to strike all of the heads at once and opening the way to Kushinada. Kotori’s Zionga and Kami’s Ziodyne struck the wailing shadow, before it would return with a wave of ice, encasing the entire party in an icy sheet for a short moment. Ryan would come out without too much problem, giving him the initiative. Although the Yamata no Orochi wasn’t going to just lay down and let them beat it down. The many-headed serpent screeched, causing a shockwave to blast out from it, striking everyone with a Deathbound.<br/><br/>This didn’t look too good, it seems this shadow had a lot of area of effect skills. Although thanks to Heat Riser, Ryan was still not too affected.<br/><br/>“Kotori, keep us topped off. Kami and Ryan, focus on offense”, and him? He called forth Askr, and cast Masukukaja, a green aura briefly enshrouded everyone, and immediately they were feeling lighter on their feet. It was going to be easier to get in and out to avoid their attacks now. Still, it was area of effect, so the effectiveness of this alone was limited.<br/><br/>---<br/>Kotori<br/><br/>Kotori followed Yamata-no-Orochi's movements with a small measure of worry as the Shadow attempted to get a bead on Rui, who dashed in between the eight heads. Unbeknownst to it, he was merely seeking to create an opening - one which he got just moments into the fight; forcing the multitude of heads back with a Gale Slash. This was the signal for the ranged barrage to strike as Kotori's own Zionga was echoed just a heartbeat later by an even more booming Ziodyne courtesy of Kaminari and Zeus whilst Ryan used the brief moment to instead set himself up for a big follow-up between his Heat Riser and Charge.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, their opponents weren't just going to sit back and take the hits. Almost immediately, Kushinada-Hime responded with a spell of her own; sending a freezing blast across the battlefield which engulfed the whole group. Though it lasted for but a moment, Kotori was left gasping at the sudden and massive drop in temperature - only to look up just in time to see Yamata-no-Orochi recoiling. This was not any of their doing, however - instead, the great serpent was preparing an attack of its own as an ear-splitting screech thundered through the whole area. Kotori winced once more, clutching her ears as the sheer force of the cry forced her back a step or two.<br/><br/>Shakily, she peered through her glasses in fearful anticipation of yet another strike - but even over her quickened and heavy breathing, she could hear Rui calmly relaying the battle orders. <font color=""green"">""Ri-right,""</font> Kotori quickly said as she nodded; only too eager to follow this particular instruction, seeing as everyone seemed to be quite a bit worse for wear after the two Shadows' assault.<br/><br/>Taking a deep breath, Kotori said: <font color=""green"">""Kikuri-Hime.""</font> Even before the next command, the shrine maiden raised her flower in preparation for the spell to come: <font color=""green"">""Salvation.""</font> And with that, a brilliant golden glow enveloped the battlefield. It coalesced around the individual party members, comforting them with a gentle warmth that soothed away the aches and pains that they had just suffered. After just a moment, the light faded - but left everyone refreshed and, thanks to Rui's own application of Masukukaja, even more ready than ever for the fight than when they had begun.<br/><br/>--Ryan--<br/><br/>Rui’s speed in dodging the strikes of the snake heads was impressive, especially since he wasn’t the one Ryan had used Heat Riser on. That kind of natural agility was just the thing he needed to strike out at Kushinada with a violent Gale Slash, the others following suit with bolts of lightning from the heavens. But she wasn’t going to take this punishment lying down, releasing a wave of ice at everyone in the party too fast to react to.<br/><br/>It struck Ryan head on, a violent shiver wracking his body as he resisted the urge to try and rub his arms to feel warm once again. He didn’t even have time to brace for impact when Orochi howled in pain or rage, maybe a mixture of both as it struck everyone with Deathbound. Ryan covered his ears in pain, wincing at the sheer volume of it’s cry as everyone nearly crumpled. Ryan undoubtedly came out of that assault the best, only minor injuries thanks to his Heat Riser. Rui called out his orders once again, Ryan smiling as he looked straight at Kushinada. <font color=""royalblue"">”Not a problem!”</font> Rui cast Masukaja on everyone, or was it Masukukaja? Some of the names for these attacks are so confusing, but regardless it topped off Ryan’s speed boost from his Heat Riser so that was nice.<br/><br/>Kotori followed up with some mass healing, Ryan looking over nodding with a smile. Salvation was a pretty useful skill, maybe he could get her to teach it to him later? Could you teach moves to other Personas? A question to muse on another time, now it was time to bring down the hurt on the princess of the moon.<br/><br/>Ryan hopped on the tips of his toes for a moment, before taking off with a burst of inhuman speed towards Kushinada, holding the ever familiar Persona card in his hand as he stopped inches away from the shadow. <font color=""royalblue"">”Come! King of Dumnonia!”</font> The card shattered within his clenched fist, the majesty of Geraint bloomed outwards from his soul as his sword pointed to the heavens in a blaze of glory. The Charge was spent, all that was left was to direct the power and then retreat.<br/><br/>The heavenly blade swung downwards, attempting to crush her underneath the weight of its royal light. The blast of energy enveloped her completely, along with the rest of the party as they all felt Heat Riser and Charge/Concentrate being applied to them simultaneously. A panting Ryan propelled himself back towards the group, slightly hunched over from exerting so much power at once. <font color=""royalblue"">”I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that. Now make sure to crush em for me… while I take a minor breather.”</font> Hands on knees and face towards the ground, Ryan took several deep breaths to try and recover from such a cost intensive move.<br/><br/>----------------------<br/><br/>Ryan’s blade of light shined down upon the shadow, the visage of the serpents faded into the light, blinding all before they re-emerged, singed. While the serpents of Yamata no Orochi themselves were out for the count for now, the corrupted Kushinada-hime was still active, albeit damaged.<br/><br/>As the shadow raised her arm, it was met only with a blast of lightning as Kami intercepted it,<br/><br/>“Rui, now!”, he called.<br/><br/>In a flash of white, Rui called forth Askr, whose speed gradually increased, before suddenly disappearing into a flurry of slashes until the entire shadow was trapped in pillars of flashing blades. After a few moments, Askr appeared far above the shadow, with flashes locked around the shadow like a web, blade raised high above. “Hissatsu, Zan!”, as the move’s name was called, the final blow was struck as Askr came down, slashing right down the middle. A brilliant white flash split the visage before them into two perfect halves. Each flashing blade stood still, as Rui flourished his katana, before turning his back on it, slowly sheathing his blade. As soon as the click resounded, every flashing white blade erupted in a slashing storm, causing the shadow to crumple over with countless slash wound, before it slowly began to dissipate.<br/><br/>----<br/><br/>With that battle over, the party approached what remained, a pillar of broken shards, but the images shown in each reflection slowly became more and more depressing. Each shard slowly turned from the happy couple they had seen up until now into despair and separation, and soon, each one slowly and then gradually all of them reflected a single thing, a tombstone…<br/><br/>“Hmm…?”, Kami seemed to have noticed something, but that would have to come later. A voice resounded that they can only assume belonged to the man depicted.<br/><br/>“Why did you leave me…? Why…? No… Why has this world taken you from me? I… Without you I...“, and so the voice trailed off…<br/><br/>So was this merely just the story of a tragedy…? By now, it was probably pretty clear whose story was being depicted. As soon as the shards had given their insight into the memory, they rose to the heavens like always. Following this, the seals around the cave entrance began to illuminate, and on queue, torches began to light up within the gaping cavern, one by one each side lit up to show a path leading further into the mountain.<br/><br/>“I’d wager this will be the last stretch… But today has taken a lot out of us hasn’t it?”, plus Kami seemed like he wanted to say something. Though he would seem to save it for later.<br/><br/>---<br/>Kotori<br/><br/>Able to breathe a little lighter after healing the damage done - yet also a little harder from the strain of doing so - Kotori quickly surveyed the situation. Thanks to Rui's Masukukaja, everyone managed to get the initiative back - with Ryan being the first to do so. Having set up his attack since the fight started, he was more than ready - and his blow struck true enough. Between his Heat Riser and his Charge, Geraint's brilliant light dared to blind all who looked on; causing Kotori to squint and shield her eyes. The light would not fade for what felt like ages - but when it finally did, even the mighty eight-headed serpent proved incapable of withstanding firepower of such magnitude.<br/><br/>This, however, still left the second Shadow alive and well - but before she could go on the counterattack, a bolt of lightning courtesy of Kaminari interrupted her would-be move. This was all the opening Rui needed - even without Kaminari's cry, he dashed forth as Askr joined him at his side. The flurry of blows that followed rapidly rose in velocity - quickly reaching the point where Kotori couldn't even follow the movements anymore and was left watching merely the aftermath as slash after glowing slash mounted on the stunned Shadow.<br/><br/>The barrage of blows came to a close with a final cut from above by Askr - the Shadow had a mere moment to truly realise how dire the situation was before a single clicking sound announced its end. Dozens, if not hundreds of blades simultaneously ripped through the Shadow which, left in tatters, began to fade just as the last blow landed. Kotori would give a sigh of relief that the fight had come to an end - but couldn't help but feel ill at ease and on guard as she peered across the surroundings for any other foes that might present themselves.<br/><br/>Thankfully though, her mistrust was misplaced - no more shadows rose up to challenge them as the group approached the pillar of broken memory shards. At least, that's what they'd come to believe these to be - Kotori had tried and failed to somehow come up with any explanation as to how it might be possible and instead just decided to accept these things rather than give herself a headache trying to wrap her mind around them.<br/><br/>Viewing the memories, meanwhile, turned out to be an exercise in the depressing - one by one, the sights and sounds of the happy couple were replaced by worries, fears, confusion, anger and, finally, despair. With a hand clutched tightly to her chest, Kotori watched as, one by one, the shards revealed the inevitable fate that they'd all known would come to pass. Even so, seeing and hearing what it wrought upon the widowed survivor still hit Kotori particularly hard.<br/><br/>Kotori noticed the changes in the environment out of the corner of her eyes, but couldn't bring herself to raise her gaze up from the ground. Even when it was announced that they would end their exploration here for today, she barely gave more than a hint of a nod and would wordlessly follow the others as they made the return journey out of the Mirror Realm - but even outside, the uncomfortable silence of her mood remained unbroken. She'd never been a fan of unhappy endings - and even less so when the story rang truer to life than she'd like.</div></div></div>"

<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Zdf22kI.jpg""/>

Youhei's cute, almost feminine face is mirrored by a slim body standing at around 5""1' and thin, wiry limbs. He is quite strong however, his tightly coiled muscles a legacy of a lifetime working on the family farm.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>
16

<span class=""bb-b"">Arcana</span>
The Sun

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Despite his effeminate features, Youhei is a man's man through and through. He rarely drops the positive, if sarcastic attitude and can be relied on to drop a perfect deadpan snark with just the right timing. While his strangely pessimistic brand of optimism comes from the heart, Youhei is also beset by a deep-seated sense of inferiority due to his rural upbringing. He secretly believes that all city folk think of him as rustic and backward, leading to trust issues in school life and a sense of insecurity that drives him to constantly use sarcasm and self-deprecating humour as a shield. In part because of this insecurity and part because of his easygoing nature, Youhei is terrible at dealing with arguments or malicious verbal assaults; he can defend himself in a fair argument with little than a mild adrenaline rush, but if someone lays into him, the boy will crumble. Despite this, he deeply respects and cares for everyone around him, even and perhaps especially those who openly mock his past; his respect for those who are completely honest with themselves and others runs deep.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon -</span> No proper weapon as yet, but he is in the habit of carrying an old screwdriver in his school bag, just in case
<span class=""bb-b"">Armour -</span> Warakuma Gakuen Uniform
<span class=""bb-b"">Accessory -</span> Steel Toe-capped Boots
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills -</span> Youhei's only useful talent is physical labour and the stamina to keep it up long term. Aside from that he is uniquely skilled at fixing up old mechanical systems; his knowledge is a decade out of date though, so he has no hope fixing anything modern.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>
The Kawasaki family owns one of the largest freehold farming chains in Hokkaido, with dozens of individual farms bearing the family crest. The clan has many branch families, one of which managed one of the smaller freehold in the far north, away from the trappings of modern Japan. Youhei's large family of nine had been solely responsible for several dozen acres of arable land dating back since before the war, without a single member of the clan ever moving from the area. As such, they had developed a certain... unique culture after the better part of a century's cultural isolation. Aside from taking pride in a dialect and accent so thick you could stew it, the Kawasakis hardy cared for the goings-on in the outside world, bar the occasional interesting snippet the delivery drivers and ancient radio told them.

It was therefore something of a shock to his parents when Youhei presented them with his plans to attend high school near Tokyo. While he sold it to them as an investment in a future manager for the business, Youhei was simply trying to escape the thankless monotony of rural life. With support from his grandparents he eventually convinced them to allow him, much to the chagrin of his elder siblings who would have balked at the chance. As the first Kawasaki to attend a non-branch school in living history, the pressure to succeed was intense, a new sensation to the erstwhile farm boy. Luckily for him the first year was relatively easy as he stayed with extended family, receiving a little too much help from their eldest daughter. Grateful yet uncomfortable living with girls his own age, he quickly worked out a way to rent his own run-down flat near the school and by the start of the second school year was well established in his new castle.

But dealing with the folk at school was a... different experience. His first year was mired in miscommunication and isolation, mostly on his part as he struggled to understand his fellow student's Tokyo standard dialect. Luckily the second was shaping up well; a new class, a fresh start. That said, even some time into the new school year he had yet to make any real friends. Just something he had grown used to.

We collaborate and communicate to all have sunglasses on our avatars. The reason why we do it is to help prevent Global Warming by lowering RPG's temperature to way past cool. It has completely nothing to do with The Old Prophecy at all.

And Photoshop helps too, I guess.</div>"

If your planning to be a character who obtains their persona later then I could easily roll with some of that...

Age: 17
Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/M9VFh3F.jpg?1""/>
Gender: Male
Arcana: Star

Personality: With his acting its hard to tell what his real personality is. Depending on the situation he will either play a timid person or a brave one. There's also his joking side. Most are just thankful he doesn’t have an asshole side. Although they will said he has a personality disorder. Despite his randomly changing personalities, no one has ever said that he came off as a rude individual to anyone, and the only times he is ever rude is when the scene calls for it.

Equipment/Skills: Is quite the fan of theater, so much that he enjoys acting to the point that he can be very believable depending on what the scene requires. 
Weapon: A mic stand(later he upgrades to a Naginata.)

 Background: Born to a more high class family, Sieg never really had a hard life. When he wanted something he got it, and he was always taken care of mostly by the maids though. His life was truly an easy one. Only hard part would be his parents lack of attention, but this was easily substituted by his favorite maid who would always take him to all kinds of plays as a child. This is where his love for them came from and blossomed. So of course after watching his first he started watching them regularly, even practiced to participate in them.

He would transform this love for performance into quite the art, becoming quite proficient in acting as he grew up. So when he and his family moved to Warakuma from Tokyo he began to experience less of the plays he enjoyed seeing. Yet luckily for him the school he was attending did have a drama club, so while he might not have been able to witness more professionally done plays, he didn’t mind as much as long as he got to partake in the art.

Persona: Saturnus
Appearance: <img src=""http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd274/vampire6662000000000/Persona/Saturnus.png""/>
Abilities: Agi- Deal a small amount of fire damage.
Assualt dive- Deal one light phys damage to one foe.
Sukukaja- increase one ally’s hit/evasion for three turns(I’d assume this would be three post for turns.)</div>"

Sweet, also Sho, I think we might get a new female persona user soon. Invited someone from another website to join in the persona hype due to the fact that she is ready for some persona rp. Don't know what arcana she'll be since the Chariot and Empress was taken, buuuuuuut I can guess on a few of them.

Do you truly wish to know? To delve into these depths?
There are some things in this world which are best left unknown; for their power is great and their influence great.
They creep into the minds of Man; their seeds, once planted, never more able to be removed and forever burrowed into every waking moment thereafter.
They haunt you in the dead of night. They are the whispers that pierce the silence. They are the shadows in darkness itself.
They are the unfathomable; their very existence irrevocably unalignable with every notion of reality and truth that we perceive.
To lay eyes upon them is to forfeit any hope; to hear of them is to never more be beheld to beauty for nothing in this world can ever be of joy.

All of these things - and so much more - are that which is known only as... <span class=""bb-i"">Shipping</span></div>"

Noboru felt the sadness and angry past of his dear friend and went to comfort him but Sato shoved him away, saying “Noboru… no… I must be with my people now…” Both boys cried harder as Sato flipped onto his back and scuttled away using both hands and feet.

Sword gave current locations of characters, but in case you wanted a summary of recent events:

After a whole bunch of exposition stuff (basically all of the first thread and the first half of the second), Kami and Co. (Kami, Rui, and three others who went inactive) became persona users after being forced into the mirror world (basically shadow world but with mirrors) and dealing with their shadows. Turns out that the people that rescue them from the mirror world are students from a nearby private school. Nothing else really happens until Noboru gets kidnapped by the Krazy Kangaroo Kultists and gets thrown into the mirror world. The Persona Team goes in to rescue him but he has his own shadow and they deal with it. They obvs save Noboru and then on the next day, Rui and Kami go to visit him in the hospital. The archery range is doing a thing but that's irrelevant to everybody not a member of the Archery Club. Kotori's somewhere and Leiko's apparently doing a study group thing.

And that's a basic rundown.</div>"

Well, the school year is entering its second week right now. As for events that have transpired for the average student, many clubs were (and/or still are) recruiting new members and there were the rumours about Noboru's disappearance (kidnapped, tossed into the Mirror World, then rescued and stuck in hospital for checkup) going about.
Among the currently PC-related clubs are the Anime &amp; Manga Club, the Archery Club, the Drama Club (which held auditions), the Kendo Club, the Mixed Martial Arts Club and the newly-founded Idol Club.

For the rest - see Sword and Sen.</div>"

Well, the manga club is always accepting and the only club activities would be like drawing manga to present at events like conima, school events/festivals or whatever the fuck. xD

Though, that's only for those who aim to do that kind of thing. People can join just for the sake of loving manga and what not and choose to help the others if they desire to. So no real labor or anything.

Well, it's just speculation, as the typical ""commu"" option is basically replaced with ""cooperation"". There still may be hope for getting your friends to die for you. Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone.
I just personally feel that cooperation will be a different kind of slink that focuses on your team-mates.

By the way, I believe it was either Persona 1 or 2, that had the original Seven Deadly Sins. If they're related to that... It could be enemies instead, but I'm willing to bet it's allies this time.

We could really and literally be playing the bad guys, Persona 2's villain was the Joker, and it looks like your Persona in this game is called Joker. It might be a gray morality thing, like criminals, who are only criminals by law, but do good, or things like that.</div>"

Decided to break it into 2 parts. Added Akira in to simply put into motion the thing with Mika or whatever in-case I don't make an Akira post anytime soon. So he'll be ready for Sen at anytime.

Also, Added another potential NPC (well 2 actually though I may end up using them again if the plot warrants it) for some drama. The kind of NPC that's fair game for any who has use of him as another school slimeball. A former Archery club member who was involved in 'The incident' with Rokoru and Akira when they were first years. I originally had the idea for him to still be in the Archery club and have him be close to Rokoru or whatever, or maybe still is but took the fall for the incident.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Somewhat short, slim, wiry, but with good muscle tone for someone his size. Shaggy dark brown hair, shoulder length, tied back in a messy ponytail. Wears glasses over blue eyes. Angular features, has a faint tired look to his eyes on occasion. Despite everything else on him being somewhat disordered, always wears his uniform immaculately. Sometimes seen with his hands wrapped, as though for sparring, for no immediately apparent reason.  
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Moon 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> A man of extremes- has an unusual tendency to swing quickly from calm and erudite to loud and bombastic, favoring the latter, though he always seems to be happy for some reason. He has an unquenchable thirst for life- he loves seeking out new experiences and new ways to entertain himself as the days go along. 

He throws himself into life with an unmatched passion, though he's no fool- he never takes any unnecessary risks, if he can help it. In short, on the surface he seems to be ruled by his passions in many ways, but by paying attention, one can notice a keen intellect lurking beneath the surface.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span> Skilled martial artist, keen strategist, though the latter trait is sometimes undercut by Mako's commitment to spectacle. Quick and light on his feet, agile. Generally keeps sports tape/handwraps on hand, ""just in case.""

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Information on Mako's history is rather sparse for as long as he's lived in Warakuma. All anyone knows for sure is that one day Mako and his father arrived in Warakuma, with barely anything to their names except what fit into their car. Mako turned out to be only slightly more forthcoming than his father, saying the two of them left Tokyo after his parents split up. Being the small town that it was, rumors abounded regarding the mysterious origins of the man and his son, though nothing was ever confirmed in any concrete manner. Eventually, as the pair of outsiders settled in, the rumors died away, and the two were gradually accepted as simply another landmark of Warakuma. 

Nowadays, most of the talk concerning the Moritomis falls on Mako's somewhat lamentable reputation as somewhat of a prankster. Though the ghost of a question will always remain, about just how the duo came to be in their sleepy little town, of all places...  

<span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Logia 
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> A long, white-and-gold dragon, almost mechanical-looking in nature. It shines with an unnatural luster.
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Hama-</span> Light: Slight chance of instant kill, 1 enemy.
<span class=""bb-i"">Dia-</span> Slightly restores 1 ally's HP.
<span class=""bb-i"">Double Fangs-</span> Deals light Phys damage to 1 foe 2x.
<span class=""bb-b"">Resistant to Light</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weak to Electricity</span></div>"

I had nothing nothing special planned, honestly. Was just doing something for my character (since I haven't had her doing anything hero/yuri prince like since the RP began xD). You can edit it if you want but im in no way forcing you nor do I mind.

Though, it does give me an idea. I can have Akane finish Miura off and later on when he tries to get his revenge, then you can have alexei step in and stop him (when I make a revenge post). Maybe in the edit you can leave some of the stuff like maybe your characters ran into my other npcs and guarded them (or temporarily hid them until Miura finds out you hid them). And maybe Alexei and the others distract him long enough for akane to catch up and beat him? 

Or maybe it was just your NPCs who guarded them and  got into a heated discussion with Miura while alexei was watching, like maybe he arrived onto the scene after being late/doing something and when he sees the incident he makes a move to get involved in the exchange but sees Akane arrive on the scene (near the end of the post when Miura, inoue and etc are near the end of their heated exchange and Alexei stops, becoming interested/intriqued when seeing akane calling out Miura or whatever?

And as put above when I make a revenge post and Miura moves to make it happened, Alexei can show his good guy/Badass self by interrupting him and beating his ass?
xD

^Definitely liking that idea, though its up to you. =o</div>"

Hrm. Maybe it'd be best if we'd do like a collab post or something? Like how our forefathers (Savo?) did.

We could do it all flash-back, but that'd be a little awkward considering it'd be only a couple scenes as opposed to them explaining the whole thing? Them explaining it fully would be more over-all better, but some flash-backs would be better for establishing/explaining their relationship... Maybe Grand Manga Explanation <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> be the best MO. I'm just a little concerned that it'd be a less sufficient explanation as opposed to a literal explanation.

Hrm. Maybe it'd be best if we'd do like a collab post or something? Like how our forefathers (Savo?) did.

We could do it all flash-back, but that'd be a little awkward considering it'd be only a couple scenes as opposed to them explaining the whole thing? Them explaining it fully would be more over-all better, but some flash-backs would be better for establishing/explaining their relationship... Maybe Grand Manga Explanation <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> be the best MO. I'm just a little concerned that it'd be a less sufficient explanation as opposed to a literal explanation.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sen"">@Sen</a></footer></blockquote>

I've continued the flashback but wasn't sure how much exactly to put or what exactly to say but I've post. Let me know if it's good or not, I can always edit if you need more.

To her, nothing lasts. Everything is always changing, things are realized too late, and it's hard to keep anything ""stable"". But...it's fine. She's convinced that she doesn't need people anymore at this point. She does fine without them.  <br/><br/>She's not painfully boastful, but she isn't afraid to point out her superiority when she can. She isn't loud, but she doesn't think most people capable of what they set out to do if they don't look the part and she'll express it on the second it's mentioned. She's the person that won't take warnings for granted and will go head-first, sense last into a problem. Brute force can be her go-to method as she prides her strength, but on those rare, light occasions, she might actually be able to wisen up and change tactics if things go on long enough. <br/><br/>...Or she'll just keep bashing the problem with a (metaphorical/literal) hammer until things <span class=""bb-i"">smooth over.</span> But she can be coerced into decent conversation -- she likes hearing about struggles! No, not in that sadistic way. In that way of how people try to claw their way from the lowest of hope and fight until their heart gives up for some impossible goal- okay this is sounding sadistic. <br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<br/>- Weapon: An oversized hammer. Probably about as big as she is. How she hides it? ...Don't question it. <br/>- Armor: The school uniform on top, and gauntlets on her arms and legs to keep her braced when she swings that menacing aforementioned weapon. Also has shoes with extra ""stick"", so she won't slip easily. <br/>- Skills: Quite strong for her size, so she can wield her hammer easier. She can shrug off minor wounds and (very few) other wounds through pure force of mind that ""they don't matter"". Might have a slight adrenaline addiction. <br/><br/>Background: <br/>""Please take her back in.""<br/><br/>Those words again. <br/><br/>Time and time again. From the age of three as her parents died on an airplane ride back home, Exoris Magnolia stayed in that orphanage. <br/><br/>Adopted out. <br/><br/>Decent family. Nice people. Usually a caring older couple or one unable to have kids. <br/><br/>Abandoned back to that orphanage. <br/><br/>But...why?<br/><br/>Yes, her childhood was a bunch of ins and outs from one household to another. Nobody seemed to be able to keep caring for her after three months or more, resulting in more than a boxful of adoption papers. All were good families...she just didn't fit. So she stayed in that orphanage, and that hope of hers diminished each time she came back to its familiar doors. To ease the grief of being abandoned so often, Exoris got a job. Started working harder than she should to earn enough money. <br/><br/>Ages 12-15, she focused on how much an apartment would cost instead of making friends. <br/><br/>Age 16, with some help from the kind people running the orphanage, she managed to buy a small but affordable apartment in the town of Warakuma, her birthplace. The name lies within the owner of the orphanage, but she's still good to live in it. <br/><br/>Apartment. Check. <br/><br/>Official documentation. Check. <br/><br/>Obvious capacity to be independent? Check. <br/><br/>Now. For attending high school without getting man-handling half of the school populace. <br/><br/>...Pending. <br/><br/>Persona: Shiva, The Destroyer<br/>Appearance: <a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130602163022/megamitensei/images/a/a9/Devil_siva.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Hey Sexy.</a><br/>Abilities:<br/>Brutal Slash<br/>Heatwave<br/>Bufu<br/>Dekaja</div></div></div>"

As he walks by a pair of girls, he bumps into one of their shoulders and he spins around to apologize. But as he does so, Noboru keeps moving in the direction he was heading, and he ends walks into a carpenter carrying a copious amount of paint. When they collide, the paint spills all over him, the carpenter, the hall, <span class=""bb-b"">and</span> the girls!</span><br/><br/>	“<span class=""bb-i"">Maddie!</span> Did you see something?” Sato exclaimed, putting her hands on Maddie’s shoulders to grab her attention.<br/><br/>	The thicker girl shook her head, eyes wide. “I have to go find Noboru Yamamoto, quickly!” And dragging Sato behind him, the boy flew off down the halls in his pink heels, light purple fur scarf fluttering behind him as she and Sato made their ways over to the hall she saw in her vision.<br/><br/>	Barely keeping up, Sato shouted from behind Maddie. “What’s wrong?! What’s going to happen to that hottie?” They soon slowed down and when they stopped, Sato fingered the hem of her baby blue dress, as one of the teachers, Mr. Tanaka, had stopped Maddie and her dead in their tracks. <br/><br/>	“Why were you running in the halls, Maddison Harvester?!” The old man interrogated, spittle flying from his mouth. Maddie took a step back towards Sato with a grimace. She whispered something to Sato, who nodded in response. Just as Mr. Tanaka took a breath between sentences, Sato jolted forwards, pulled down his pants and ran past him.<br/><br/>	Mr. Tanaka took a moment to figure out what had happened and, once he pulled his pants back up, ran after Sato the opposite direction to where Maddie was headed. “You go girl!” She shouted after them, before jogging towards where Noboru was about to get into a sticky situation! It didn’t take long before she found herself with another obstacle, though, as a troupe of AV geeks had crashed in the middle of the hall before where Noboru was. Two large TVs (and accompanying carts) where lying on the floor, broken. The nerds scrambled to gather glasses and broken bits, and for Maddie, there seemed to be no obvious route through the mess. She huffed a breath out before sprinting past the nerds and leaping over the wreck, landing with a stumble. Her mission was still saving Noboru from that paint!<br/><br/>	Just as she picked up pace again, Sato and Mr. Tanaka ran past her at a high speed, Mr. Tanaka’s pants fluttering in the wind from Sato’s hand. Maddie giggled to herself at the scene before rushing down the hall to where she saw the scene take place. Fortunately, her eyes had not deceived her, and she saw Noboru approaching from the emergency exit. A group of men at the other end of the hall were hauling paint, and she then knew that this was the place. She ran over to Noboru, grabbing his shoulder, and tried to explain the situation. “Noboru! This sounds crazy, but don’t go down this hall!”<br/><br/>	“Don’t be weird, Maddie.” Noboru brushed her off, tossing the football in his hand to the other and brushing his varsity jacket off where she had touched him. He kept walking down the hall, and when Maddie saw those two girls approaching them, she knew she had to take some kind of action. So without thinking, she ran after the boy, and just as he bumped into the girl’s side, Maddie leaped onto Noboru. But instead of avoiding the carpenter like she’d hoped they would, they crashed straight into him, and the paint cans he was carrying went flying into the air.<br/><br/>	After all the cans clanged to the floor, Maddie pushed herself up from Noboru, and observed the damage. Paint was splattered over the girls, it coated her back, and it basically covered the carpenter man. But by some miracle, Noboru got out of it with little more than some smears on his face and the bottom of his jeans. Just as she cracked a smile over how she’d save the #1 Hottie of Warakuma, she heard a piercing shout. “<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">MADDISON HARVESTER!!</span></span>” She stood up to see the principal, Mrs. Akiyama, rushing towards her. Maddie knew <span class=""bb-i"">exactly</span> what was going to happen as the short and stout woman grabbed her by the ear and pulled her away towards her office. “You’re in for a lot of trouble, miss!”<br/><br/>	But just before she was pulled out of view, Maddie shouted, “CALL ME, NOBORU!”</div></div><br/>Oh look, I wrote more garbage.

But she seems to holds onto a great deal of anger and sadness from her past. But she tries to be optimistic and stay grounded. She works incredibly hard and persist through life, she's caring to those having a rough time giving them an ear and a shoulder to cry onto. She can come off as bitter at times and can be dismissive of people troubles she considers it 'not real trouble,' but she apologizes whenever she does this and will try not to do it again. She tries not make people worry or sad, so she avoids telling people her troubles and woes. And she is ashamed of being homeless.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills: <br/><br/>She knows how to stay hidden and to survive without a home since she is homeless. Can sleep anywhere and anytime with as little sleep as humanly possible. She has learned how to use a knife as both a weapon and as a survival tool.

It was the perfect household, with loving parents that spoiled their two humble but naive children. Keiko was loved by her classmates and teachers for how hard she does everything in and out of school. But she spends most of her free time with her brother who was smart and was an honored student. Even though he was a lot older than she was he played with her and indulged in her fantasies and stories.<br/>As she gotten older she grew to be her own person, spending less time with her brothers and working harder in school to be a teacher and help children and she loved spending time with children often being a really good senpai to her kohais. But she still loving spending her little free time with her brother and parents who over the years became less happy with her mother losing a job and her father having to work extra shifts at work to keep them afloat. but Keiko barely noticed.<br/><br/>But on the year she started high school their house caught on fire. Keiko was passed out due to the carbon monoxide from the fire. Her brother rescued her, but he suffered serious injuries and brain damage from all the carbon monoxide. He survived, but he went into a coma with a very unlikely chance of ever recovering. She was felt with regret in that she couldn't even thank him for his rescue and also that he might never recover because of her. <br/><br/>She started to hate her parents because to her all they cared about was the house and not that the fact that their son might die or at least be brain dead. But in reality they did care and was devastated by it but they put on a brave face so Keiko would stop blaming herself and try to move on. She didn't.<br/><br/>One night when staying in a hotel room, she ran off in the middle of the night, with only the clothes on her back and a few small things. The start was the hardest, but a homeless woman helped her survive on the streets. The homeless woman and Keiko stayed together for the better part of the year. In moments of doubt, Keiko called her mother's cell phone, saying she misses her and wants to be with them. But she is always reminded of all her anger when she hears her mother voice. There was only one time she spoke to her mother. Which was the most recent call, she never told a soul what she told her mother. Not even the friendly woman.<br/><br/>Keiko and the homeless had to move from town to town so child services doesn't get her and return her to her parents. She just so happened to return to the homeless woman hometown.

To her, nothing lasts. Everything is always changing, things are realized too late, and it's hard to keep anything ""stable"". But...it's fine. She's convinced that she doesn't need people anymore at this point. She does fine without them.  <br/><br/>She's not painfully boastful, but she isn't afraid to point out her superiority when she can. She isn't loud, but she doesn't think most people capable of what they set out to do if they don't look the part and she'll express it on the second it's mentioned. She's the person that won't take warnings for granted and will go head-first, sense last into a problem. Brute force can be her go-to method as she prides her strength, but on those rare, light occasions, she might actually be able to wisen up and change tactics if things go on long enough. <br/><br/>...Or she'll just keep bashing the problem with a (metaphorical/literal) hammer until things <span class=""bb-i"">smooth over.</span> But she can be coerced into decent conversation -- she likes hearing about struggles! No, not in that sadistic way. In that way of how people try to claw their way from the lowest of hope and fight until their heart gives up for some impossible goal- okay this is sounding sadistic. <br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<br/>- Weapon: An oversized hammer. Probably about as big as she is. How she hides it? ...Don't question it. <br/>- Armor: The school uniform on top, and gauntlets on her arms and legs to keep her braced when she swings that menacing aforementioned weapon. Also has shoes with extra ""stick"", so she won't slip easily. <br/>- Skills: Quite strong for her size, so she can wield her hammer easier. She can shrug off minor wounds and (very few) other wounds through pure force of mind that ""they don't matter"". Might have a slight adrenaline addiction. <br/><br/>Background: <br/>""Please take her back in.""<br/><br/>Those words again. <br/><br/>Time and time again. From the age of three as her parents died on an airplane ride back home, Eika Munashii stayed in that orphanage. It was like a broken record. Hell. She wanted to tell the woman to stop talking and just get out. This same old story was just a migraine at this point. <br/><br/>Adopted out. Returned like a product with a defect. Why the hell did she need to bother with them?<br/><br/>Decent family. Nice people. Usually a caring older couple or one unable to have kids. <br/><br/>Tossed back to that orphanage. Because there was always something ""wrong"" with her. <br/><br/>That was fine. She didn't need them. She only needed herself. <br/><br/>Yes, her childhood was a bunch of ins and outs from one household to another. Nobody seemed to be able to keep caring for her after three months or more, resulting in more than a boxful of adoption papers. All were good families...she just didn't fit. So she stayed in that orphanage, but it got...tiring. Having to go back to the same place like a lost puppy, laughed at by the ones that knew her every time she came back...She wanted her own place. So...Eika got a job. If she wanted to get out, she could do it on her own, and she would prove it. And she worked harder than she should to earn enough money. As she grew, she argued down her employers to give her the increase in money she needed, and she took on more hours at night because she was...simply better at doing everyone's job. <br/><br/>And look. That worked. <br/><br/>Ages 12-15, she focused on how much an apartment would cost instead of making friends. There was no point in relying on them when she had other things to do. From a clueless kid trying to get out of the place she'd come to dread, she learned to support herself by her own desire. Instead of having to be dumped on another family, she made herself better. And it felt...better. Being able to be strong enough to do the manual labor of her job for extra cash, or learning something new that nobody else seemed to know well or at all. She rebuilt herself up from being some hopeless kid stuck waiting for someone to come and take her home. <br/><br/>Age 16, with some help from the kind people running the orphanage, she managed to buy a small but affordable apartment in the town of Warakuma, her birthplace. The name lies within the owner of the orphanage, but she's still good to live in it. She didn't know many other people her age that actually worked to earn their home. And it made her develop a slight complex. Being able to say, ""YEP. I did this. Think you can? Probably not!"" Which was true. Not all kids started at a job at 12 and worked their way up and kept at it until they had a home. She had her accomplishments and she didn't need anyone else to work up to them.  That's the way it worked and that's how she got used to it. She did was she was better at than everyone else, and it got her what she needed. <br/><br/>Apartment. Check. <br/><br/>Official documentation. Check. <br/><br/>Obvious capacity to be independent? Check. <br/><br/>Now. For attending high school without getting man-handling half of the school populace. <br/><br/>...Pending. <br/><br/>Persona: Shiva, The Destroyer<br/>Appearance: <a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130602163022/megamitensei/images/a/a9/Devil_siva.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Hey Sexy.</a><br/>Abilities:<br/>Brutal Slash<br/>Heatwave<br/>Bufu<br/>Dekaja</div></div></div>"

Everyone's idol just arrived!""'</span></span></div><br/><br/>Utaha is actually a pretty tall girl in comparison to most girls, and even guys, standing at 1.90 meters. Her build is actually quite curvy. Her orange hair reaches her back and is almost always kept straight, but she knows how to arrange it in lots of ways, for when sh evecomes a real idol. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Kashiwagi Utaha<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Sun<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Utaha is extremely lively, way too lively for the good of anyone in her vicinity. It is hard to see her stay put, and she likes jumping around as much as possible, even with her big body. She likes singing and dancing a lot too. Without regards of personal space whatsoever or the slightest hint of what the hell is the so-called delicacy she keeps hearing so much about, Utaha can be quite intrusive upon personal matters, even though she always has the best interests of people in mind, even though she can be quite the nuisance too. She always gives it her all to achieve her dream of becoming an idol, and always gives her 200% at everything, and also expecting that others will follow her example. She also does not accept any kind of slacker, and will force them into working, no matter what it takes. <br/><br/>An airhead and a klutz by nature, Utaha is someone who trips over nothing, forgets things rather quickly, can't read the mood or take a hint, and her fingers seem to be made out of butter, everything slipping through them most of the times. Unable to ever differentiate left from right, there are few actual things she is good at, such as dancing, and also, quite few things that can upset her, being almost always able to keep her cool no matter the circumstances. Still, there are a lot of things that can upset the ever happy Utaha, such as commenting over her height or telling her that her dream to become an idol is a fool's errand. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Weapon:</span> Unsuited for a fighting style that is less than graceful, due to her dancing skills and clumsy nature, Utaha would actually prefer to make use of a spear or lance when the time comes, so she would be able to put it to good use with her big body.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Armor:</span> Not much, the usual school uniform and maybe something underneath it, but nothing slowing her legs down. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Skills:</span> Dancing, singing. Due to an elective she was practically forced to take during middle school, she also knows Judo, if at least the basics. Her grades aren't that bad either, and she's able to memorize lyrics and whatnot in a matter of seconds.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Born to a family of overachievers, Utaha spent most of her life being the black sheep in a family full of people that did not know what it meant to fail, at anything at all, and given how she is, and has always been, Utaha was actually looked down upon a lot. Her brother and sister always thought of her as being worthless and also called her names related to her height and build, hence building to her build complex. Her father barely paid her any attention, and not to say anything about her mother, who knew she was too much of a goody two shoes to actually tell anyone what she was doing behind her family's back. Utaha pretty much just had to put up with it.<br/><br/>Her life, well, it could not be called a living hell, she did not want to call it that, since many others had it even worse than her, but it wasn't something pretty. There was a single thing that kept her on the game, and it was the love she had for the idol Kiruri Izumi. Her songs and dances got right to her heart, and even so, it wasn't the songs themselves that made her hopeful. It was the fact that anyone could become that, even her. It was not long until Izumi released a song that actually filled Utaha with the courage she needed. That day, she was able to finally tell her dad about what her mom was doing, not only wringling every penny out of him, but also cheating on him. A divorce ensued, of course, and she ended up living with her father. He was no longer able of treating Utaha as he did, even though he still spent a lot of time in his work, he now calls regularly to check on her. <br/><br/>Utaha now feels happy about what she did and now aims to become an idol just like Kiruri Izumi, someone that makes and sings songs that reach people's hearts and fills them with emotions, that's what she wants to do the most. Still, she finds obstacles at every turn. Not one agency has hired her in all the time she has been attending idol auditions because of her height and build not fitting the image they search for in an idol. While it puts her down at times, she still gives it her best always and keeps up a positive outlook at everything. She will not let anyone put her down or ridicule her dream of becoming an idol that will reach everyone's hearts!<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Terpsichore, nicknamed Terpsi-chan by Utaha. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Persona Appearance"" type=""button"">Persona Appearance [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/081/c/2/cm__monster_girl_solita_by_kachima-d5yvbr7.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Agi, Dia, Tarukaja.</div></div><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Due to the lack of response, Imma just edit it in here.

Everyone's idol just arrived!""'</span></span></div><br/><br/>Utaha is actually a pretty tall girl in comparison to most girls, and even guys, standing at 1.90 meters. Her build is actually quite curvy. Her orange hair reaches her back and is almost always kept straight, but she knows how to arrange it in lots of ways, for when sh evecomes a real idol. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Kashiwagi Utaha<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Sun<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Utaha is extremely lively, way too lively for the good of anyone in her vicinity. It is hard to see her stay put, and she likes jumping around as much as possible, even with her big body. She likes singing and dancing a lot too. Without regards of personal space whatsoever or the slightest hint of what the hell is the so-called delicacy she keeps hearing so much about, Utaha can be quite intrusive upon personal matters, even though she always has the best interests of people in mind, even though she can be quite the nuisance too. She always gives it her all to achieve her dream of becoming an idol, and always gives her 200% at everything, and also expecting that others will follow her example. She also does not accept any kind of slacker, and will force them into working, no matter what it takes. <br/><br/>An airhead and a klutz by nature, Utaha is someone who trips over nothing, forgets things rather quickly, can't read the mood or take a hint, and her fingers seem to be made out of butter, everything slipping through them most of the times. Unable to ever differentiate left from right, there are few actual things she is good at, such as dancing, and also, quite few things that can upset her, being almost always able to keep her cool no matter the circumstances. Still, there are a lot of things that can upset the ever happy Utaha, such as commenting over her height or telling her that her dream to become an idol is a fool's errand. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Weapon:</span> Unsuited for a fighting style that is less than graceful, due to her dancing skills and clumsy nature, Utaha would actually prefer to make use of a spear or lance when the time comes, so she would be able to put it to good use with her big body.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Armor:</span> Not much, the usual school uniform and maybe something underneath it, but nothing slowing her legs down. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Skills:</span> Dancing, singing. Due to an elective she was practically forced to take during middle school, she also knows Judo, if at least the basics. Her grades aren't that bad either, and she's able to memorize lyrics and whatnot in a matter of seconds.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Born to a family of overachievers, Utaha spent most of her life being the black sheep in a family full of people that did not know what it meant to fail, at anything at all, and given how she is, and has always been, Utaha was actually looked down upon a lot. Her brother and sister always thought of her as being worthless and also called her names related to her height and build, hence building to her build complex. Her father barely paid her any attention, and not to say anything about her mother, who knew she was too much of a goody two shoes to actually tell anyone what she was doing behind her family's back. Utaha pretty much just had to put up with it.<br/><br/>Her life, well, it could not be called a living hell, she did not want to call it that, since many others had it even worse than her, but it wasn't something pretty. There was a single thing that kept her on the game, and it was the love she had for the idol Kiruri Izumi. Her songs and dances got right to her heart, and even so, it wasn't the songs themselves that made her hopeful. It was the fact that anyone could become that, even her. It was not long until Izumi released a song that actually filled Utaha with the courage she needed. That day, she was able to finally tell her dad about what her mom was doing, not only wringling every penny out of him, but also cheating on him. A divorce ensued, of course, and she ended up living with her father. He was no longer able of treating Utaha as he did, even though he still spent a lot of time in his work, he now calls regularly to check on her. <br/><br/>Utaha now feels happy about what she did and now aims to become an idol just like Kiruri Izumi, someone that makes and sings songs that reach people's hearts and fills them with emotions, that's what she wants to do the most. Still, she finds obstacles at every turn. Not one agency has hired her in all the time she has been attending idol auditions because of her height and build not fitting the image they search for in an idol. While it puts her down at times, she still gives it her best always and keeps up a positive outlook at everything. She will not let anyone put her down or ridicule her dream of becoming an idol that will reach everyone's hearts!<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Terpsichore, nicknamed Terpsi-chan by Utaha. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Persona Appearance"" type=""button"">Persona Appearance [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/081/c/2/cm__monster_girl_solita_by_kachima-d5yvbr7.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Agi, Dia, Tarukaja.</div></div><br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Due to the lack of response, Imma just edit it in here.

However, she is a kind and caring person, always trying to put others in front of herself. She is too really formal in speaking and acting.<br/>Equipment/Skills: <br/>Weapon: Yggdra is unskilled with most kinds of weaponry. At the maximum, she can try to wield a whip or a staff, but nothing more than that.<br/>Armor: She only wears her everyday dress and the school uniform. Other than that, she uses no protection.<br/>Skills: Yggdra is a good reader and knows many languages since she was forced to take multicultural private classes during all of her life. She did ballet lessons and is a good cook.<br/>Background: Yggdra was born in the United Kingdom, in London. Her father is a very important and known businessman, but she never had any information about her mother since her birth. Her lifestyle was full of richness and she always had the best from her dad, from school to material things. However, since he was a little worried about her daughter not being classy enough, he gave her particular lessons to make her feel more like a high-class girl. Despite how much he cared about her, she lived a little reclused from the world outside. And due to her father's constant pressure and that nothing seemed enough for her, she started to get a little shy and submissive to his orders. As her life passed, when she turned 15, her father decided to send her to a Japanese school for learning more about the other countries.<br/><br/>Persona: Selene<br/>Appearance: <img src=""http://www3.artflakes.com/artwork/products/600575/poster/the-moon-goddess.jpg?1314349348""/><br/>Abilities: Full Analysis, Third Eye, Support Scan</div></div></div>"

Like most children coming from a wealthy family, Shizuka was left alone most of the time, with the exception of servants, by her parents in their mansion with no one to play or interact with. Not necessarily neglected, but she didn't mind either way as she was an obedient child and she understood that both her parents were flooded with work which needed to be taken care of.<br/><br/>This is why she sought out a hobby to preoccupy herself with. Flipping through the channels as a curious child, she abruptly stopped when an animated female character on the screen magically transforms, with all the colorful lights and sparkles, and shouts, ""In the name of the moon, I will punish you!"" Eyes widened in amazement, Shizuka could not take her gaze away from the television screen while her thoughts were of how exciting whatever this was and how she wanted to become like them, hues of hair she's never seen before, costumes of different variety and color, and the dynamic personalities each one had.<br/><br/>Years had passed since then, but her love and excitement for anime never wavered. What remained though was her calm, delicate nature she presented towards her fellow classmates, friends, and parents. Her passion for anime (and now manga) was to not leave the four corners of her room. Shizuka would occasionally show hints of interest when her classmates discussed about them but no one, and she means NO ONE, should ever find out about how ""otaku"" she was.<br/><br/>Keeping all of this within her had limits and before she was about to breakdown, someone on the hallway of the school uttered the word, ""cosplay"". It took quite awhile for her to learn the meaning and to take enough courage to disguise herself in the colorful costumes and hair she once saw years ago, to find people of similar interests without them ever finding out her true self.<br/><br/>With the positive reactions given by the people she has met, Shizuka continued to create more disguises by her own hands, to the point where she landed at her current part time job at the cosplay cafe as Shizu-chan, the persona she presented to the people of the otaku world.</span><br/><br/>Persona: Inari Ōkami<br/><br/>Appearance: <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Inari"" type=""button"">Inari [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oVQWTsK9M0E/UzCTZeDHG4I/AAAAAAABCp4/9uwEbEVdVkY/s1600/s12tkw.png""/></div></div></div><br/>Abilities:<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Twin Slash</span> - 2 light Slash attacks.

Michiko is a gentle and kind young lady who is always there to lend a listening ear to people with problems and help them if able. She gives off a motherly aura despite only being a few years older than most of the students.<br/>She is also very patient and seldom get very angry though she does get annoyed at times. Michiko is also quite a responsible person who carry out her duties as a shrine maiden at the temple as well as any job given to her. She also knows about a lot of things due to her time spent reading which is one of her hobbies.<br/>However when pressed with questions about herself, Michiko will usually keep silent and close her eyes before changing the topic of conversation and deliberately not sway it back to herself. She secretly hid her skills with a sword and if people are sharp enough, they may realize Michiko puts on 'masks' when carrying out her duties. If a person manages to get close enough to Michiko, she may open up.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills<br/>Weapon- Katana<br/>Armor- School Uniform, Miko Clothes (She wears her miko clothes on certain days when she needs to help out at her family shrine)<br/>Accessory- Broken Black Magatama Necklace (Michiko’s most cherished possession)<br/>Skills- Michiko is pretty much good in any kind of household chores. She also has quite a lot of energy to be able to complete her tasks. <br/><br/>Background<br/>“…it’s a promise…”<br/>A certain incident in childhood and a broken necklace was what led to Michiko to learn how to use a sword from her father. Born to a religious family taking care of a temple, Michiko was taught on how to become a suitable shrine maiden and successor as caretaker of the temple. Initially forbidden due to Michiko’s interest in a specific katana named Ketsueki which was a family heirloom, her father consent to teaching her the ways of the sword. <br/>Eager to test herself, Michiko visited the Kendo Club when in middle school but was disappointed by the difference of what she was taught leading to her developing her own sword-style. Needing another hobby, Michiko took up reading various texts during her spare time. She was a loner during her middle school years and Michiko decided to change herself in high school.<br/>When in high school, Michiko decided to change her image. Due to her past experience, she avoided the kendo club and decided to join the anime/manga club as a ghost member though she has a tiny bit of interest in them. She usually hangs out at the library or some quiet corner reading a book. <br/><br/>Persona: Hachiman<br/>Appearance:<br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Shinto"" type=""button"">Shinto [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i58.tinypic.com/wgur2v.jpg""/></div></div><br/><br/>Abilities: Zio, Resist Ice, Resist Elec, Revolution</div></div><br/><br/>still thinking on how to link this more to the Arcana.<br/><span class=""bb-s"">sorry if the background is kind of vague</span><br/>tried to make a 1st year Hierophant...but it turned out weird so I had to settle for a 3rd year...<br/>----<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">What happened to you anyway?<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/i-am-x"">@I-Am-X</a></footer></blockquote><br/><br/>had been very busy at work...<br/><span class=""bb-s"">and I kind of forgot to come back here...</span></div>"

The brawny man kept sneaking peaks at his watch. It wasn’t like Sato to be late, though he reasoned that it also wasn’t like himself to be calling emergency jogs in the middle of the night. Only illuminated by the old street lights lining the route, Rokurou started a tired run down the usual path. Seconds after he started, the male stopped, as a familiar voice called out to him. He pivoted on his heel to see who it was, slowing down his pace as he ran backwards. Sato quickly caught up to him in his plain white attire he usually wore on their runs. <font color=""red"">”You’re late,”</font> Rokurou stated with a sneer.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">“It’s already late, Rokurou.”</font> Sato replied, swiftly pulling a sweater over his body. <font color=""skyblue"">”And it’s cold. Why are we here again?”</font> The two synced their pace together so that they were running side-by-side. Neither felt inclined to move on from what life had been like during highschool, especially Sato, but a year had already slipped by. It’d become routine; almost even day after school, Rokurou went on a run with Sato, and every odd day, Sato studied with Rokurou. Archery club was a distant memory by the second semester. Dropping those things once they both got busy left something to be desired in both their lives.<br/><br/>Rokurou huffed, both in an attempt to hide his increasingly heavy breathing and to express his dislike for the question. <font color=""red"">“It’s been a couple months since we last ran like this. Not like <span class=""bb-i"">this</span>, but—you get my point.”</font> Sato nodded, but Rokurou was too focused on keeping in sync with his shorter friend to notice. He always seemed to be going slower or Sato was faster or Sato had longer strides or he had shorter.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">“I’ve been keeping it up, but it’s obvious you haven’t. You better not be subsiding off junk food again, Rokurou.”</font> Sato sniffed, feeling the fluid gathering in his sinuses. It was an awfully cold night for a run. Rokurou ran a little ahead before stopping at a bench before an old cherry tree and flopping down on it. <font color=""skyblue"">”It’s not good to sit down after a run. Or during a run, I guess.”</font><br/><br/>Despite his protests, Sato sat down beside Rokurou and looked at his face. The broader male’s black yellow-striped collar blocked the view of the bottom half, so Sato pulled it down to see the recently shaved jaw-line. <font color=""red"">”I’ve been eating good, I’ll have you know! I just got a really shitty metabolism you see.”</font><br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Sure,”</font> Sato snorted.<br/><br/>Rokurou leaned forward, hanging his hands down between his legs. <font color=""red"">”I know you’re heading off to university next week, so I thought we should spend some time together before you ditch this town. And y’know, between my jobs and whatever the hell you do, this was the only time we were both free.”</font><br/><br/>Sato smiled a heart-melting smile. <font color=""skyblue"">”I’m not going far, just the next town over. You can come find me whenever I’m available if you’d like. I tend to stay on top of my studies well enough to get myself some well-deserved free time.”</font> Rokurou chuckled to himself, and the sylph-like boy shot him an inquisitive glance.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”My parents are still bitching to me about how I’m not going to college immediately. I think some folks need to see that there’s sometimes more important things than education.”</font> Sato laughed at the comment for no reason, as he sidled a little closer to Rokurou. The larger teen blocked some of the cold winds. And his body heat was warming too. <br/><br/>After neither added anything after a while, Sato broke the silence with a proposition. <font color=""skyblue"">”Mind if I get a little closer? Nobody’s around at this hour, and I’m chilly.”</font><br/><br/>Rokurou gave a toothy smile. <font color=""red"">”C’mere,”</font> He pulled Sato into him, wrapping an arm around the boy’s body. Sato fell into the broad frame without hesitation. God, how he missed the familiar embrace. And would miss it. As the wind picked up, Sato crept his hands up into Rokurou’s shirt, causing the boy the jump a bit as Sato’s icy hands touched the bare skin.<br/><br/><font color=""skyblue"">”Softer than I remember,”</font> he mumbled, burying the side of his face in Rokurou’s chest.<br/><br/><font color=""red"">”Shut up,”</font> Rokurou whispered back as he rested his chin in Sato’s hair. <font color=""red"">”I’m not fat.”</font></div></div></div>"

It is true I am born of the underworld… but tell me - what kind of fool provokes a demon?""</blockquote><br/><br/>Name: Jun Himura<br/>Gender: Female<br/>Age: 18<br/>Appearance: <br/><br/><img src=""https://img5q.duitang.com/uploads/item/201411/23/20141123203217_SGX2k.thumb.700_0.png""/><br/><br/>If it weren't for the fact that Jun wears a skirt and has long hair, most people would assume she was just a feminine looking boy. The way she carries herself seems to be that of a man, at any rate. The fact that her ""casual"" wear (read: clubbing/picking up girls) wear is a suit doesn't help matters.<br/><br/>She rarely wears anything revealing because of the <a href=""http://www.adisowy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/back-dragon-tattoo--image-simson-tattoo.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">dragon tattoo</a> on her back. It takes up almost the entirety of her back, the only revealing sign that she is indeed, linked to the yakuza.<br/><br/>Arcana: Devil<br/>Personality:<br/><br/>Jun has charisma, and lots of it. She's frank with her opinions and tactful with her words, with a sharp tongue and rapier wit to go along with it. The only problem is that she has no chance to display this aspect of her personality. People are often intimidated by her - if not her reputation then her skill in kendo. It also doesn't help that she's mercilessly shot down every guy who's worked up the courage to confess to her or chucked their love letters straight in the bin in public view.<br/><br/>The hushed whispers behind her back that she's the daughter of a yakuza boss doesn't help either. It's a sore spot for her, especially since she wants nothing to do with that life - even if she's grown up in relative comfort thanks to it. It's her main motivation to do well in school and get a proper job elsewhere. Preferably overseas and far out of the reach of her father.<br/><br/>All of this has given her a reputation as a Frost Queen, and the fact that she does nothing to improve her reputation in this regard gives people the impression that she thinks she's better than them, or that she really enjoys the status of being yakuza. The truth, however, is that anyone who gets too close to her might simply end up being pulled into her world, and that's the last thing she wants for her classmates. The overprotective nature of her father has also meant that anyone he deems to be a dangerous influence on her is immediately removed - either by eviction or less savoury means.<br/><br/>If anyone really got to know her, however, all of that would change. Jun is scary, but only because she inherited her father's protective nature. Anyone she comes to respect and care for will find a steadfast and loyal friend who always has their backs - especially in a fight.<br/><br/>She is also scary because of how shamelessly skilled she is at charming women in clubs or (her guilty pleasure) the staff at the maid café she frequents, Kawaii Kohi. She is unrestrained when in party mode despite being a minor. The only thing she refrains from is drugs, and even then only the hard, addictive stuff. If one offers her some pot, she's more than willing to try it.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills:<br/>Weapon - A Masamune katana. It technically meant to be on display in her home, but in Jun's words ""There is nothing more pitiful than caged dragon.""<br/>Armour - Depending on whether she has time to change, the female school uniform or her suit.<br/>Accessories - A necklace with a silver dragon coil around a piece of photoluminescent jade that glows in the dark.<br/><br/>Kendo - This goes without saying, but her father insisted that she learn how to wield a sword since he had no other heirs and wants her to inherit his position. She is trained by a private instructor and though she wants desperately to join the kendo club and actually practice with her peers, she reluctantly admits that if her father got wind one of them landed a blow and injured her, there would be hell to pay.<br/><br/>Aikido - Well, obviously a young girl walking around with a katana is too conspicuous, so Jun was also taught Aikido to defend herself.<br/><br/>Background:<br/><br/>Jun's entire family history could probably be traced to the Yakuza as far as she is concerned, or recalls. Her mother was a hostess who ended up the mistress of her father. For most of her childhood, this wasn't hidden from her, not that it could. Her mother's reputation preceded them everywhere they went. Jun was ostracized by the neighbourhood kids, but they never did anything more than hurl insults. Presumably because their parents were afraid of the consequences.<br/><br/>As long as her father's world left her alone, she was content to assume it didn't exist. When his wife could not bear him any heirs, however, he saw Jun as his only chance left of securing a successor that was directly related to him by blood. So began her years of training in etiquette and kendo, in asserting her authority. She was tasked with running her household's finances with her mother, in preparation for managing territory.<br/><br/>She hated every moment of it. She knew what happened to daughters of yakuza. If her father became indebted to another gang, she would be offered as ""goodwill"". At best, she would be married off to another influential member of the underworld to seal an alliance or merge two families. The only problem was that she wasn't interested in men.<br/><br/>The first time her father got wind of her sleeping with a girl, he was furious. The girl's family suddenly received an eviction notice and had their store burnt down. Though he did not claim responsibility, the warning was clear to Jun - anyone her father deemed to be a disgrace upon the family would be removed. That list included any girl Jun deigned to have a relationship with.<br/><br/>So she moved away, transferred schools and was relocated somewhere nobody knew of her inclinations or what had happened with her previous girlfriend. Her lessons in succession continued, but Jun knew that she would never be free to live her life as long as she was just a daughter of the yakuza.<br/><br/>Persona: Mordred<br/>Appearance:<br/><br/><img src=""http://i74.servimg.com/u/f74/19/05/17/96/10778210.jpg""/><br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>Mudoon<br/>Blade of Fury<br/>Strong against Physical<br/>Rebellion</div></div></div>"

That alone is enough to make him outstand on a crowd, instead of his clear blue eyes. He has two moles that seem to be aligned and another one below his mouth. When not using his uniform, Gen dresses in polo shirts with sweaters (when the weather allows it), dark jeans and sneakers, lacking any kind of accessories apart from his black-rimmed glasses.</div></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Arcana:</span> Hierophant<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> In a word: clumsy. In more than a word: Gen is not ill-intended, but everything he attempts to do does not seem to go the way he intends it to. And that is an understatement. That is why many people deny wanting his help when they need it, unless it is absolutely necessary, and even then they would be reticent. He likes to help, but mainly he likes to feel needed and that he is not the odd one out. He seems quite easy to talk to and a very cheerful person, and likes to throw sayings out of the blue which can sometimes be eerily appropriate, while still hiding the memory that torments him at night.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills:</span><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Weapon:</span> Naginata</li><li>Skills: Surprisingly vast vocabulary and equally-surprising cooking</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> Gen was born to a family of teachers, which meant that a lot was expected of him, academically speaking. Since kindergarten, he had to spend many hours sitting in front of a book and study so that his parents were satisfied when his report card would come. That was no easy task, for Gen could not simply memorize everything his parents wanted him to. He would get nervous when tests came and he would barely pass, and later he would get scolded for not meeting their expectations. His punishments, then, was to study everything again until he knew it by heart.<br/><br/>Until an accident occurred.<br/><br/>One day after dinner, they were robbed in their own house. Two hooded men forced the door open and seized them, pointing them with guns and ordering them around. Gen was utterly scared, and so were his parents. What was worse was that Gen could not move; the men would yell at him and his parents would beckon him to go where they were, but Gen was so frightened that his body would not react to them. One of the men pointed him with his gun, and pulled the trigger.<br/><br/>Gen did not die from that shot because his father received the bullet instead. His mother cried, and then the man realized what he has done and ran away, his partner carrying everything they had robbed. Gen had the man’s hooded face ingrained in his mind, but he still did not move. His mother hugged him and his father’s corpse lied on the floor before them.<br/><br/>From thereon, Gen could not concentrate at <span class=""bb-i"">all</span>, and his mother did not push him. He had nightmares with the robber’s face, and a gun pointing its muzzle at him. He was sent to therapy, and he still does, and started to develop a sort of clumsiness that he had not had before.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hokuto Seikun"" type=""button"">Hokuto Seikun [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Persona:</span> Hokuto Seikun<br/><br/><a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120420035701/megamitensei/images/4/4d/Beiji-weng.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Appearance</a><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> TBA.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Unawakened Persona</span></div></div></div></div><br/></div>"

You can still within that, have interest in a romantic partner, or romantic interest in a particular gender. Asexuality is more on sexual activity than romantic preference.<br/><br/>Next, pansexuality is the polar opposite in terms of activity, where it's 'gender-blind' or so they say. 'Omnisexual', so to speak, they have no preference, and love all basically.<br/><br/>I'd rather just keep it to the already well-defined hetero, homo and bi, as pan and asexual are still debated greatly.<br/><br/>Not to mention both are technically bisexual, and are considered subcategories at the moment.</div>"

The difference between the two character's skill ratings is added to the higher rated character. Obviously the higher number wins, and again obviously, it's 2/3. I.E., Hikari is a 7 with Yosuke while Hikashi is a 9 with Narukami (Which is a fairly even MU I think?). Hikari rolls a 5, Hikashi rolls a 4. (9 - 7) + 4 = 6 so Hikashi wins despite the lower roll. Next round, Hikari rolls 1 and Hikashi decimates with a 8. Hikashi wins the match. Not sure how match-ups would work. Maybe +1 or -1 if it's favorable or not?

Like:<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Ayano chose Filia and Kami chose Parasoul. It was a one-on-one fight so both of them had the same amount of health and basically dealt the same amount of damage to each other. Ayano thought she'd have the upper hand by choosing a rushdown character like Filia, but if there's one thing she knows from all those gameplay videos, it's that Parasoul is absolutely lethal when mastered. Their chosen stage was Nightmare Crest, she picked it just because of the overall weirdness of the stage, but that was nothing compared to Gehenna. As the battle began Ayano thought she could set up a quick juggle by using c.LP x2 -&gt; c.LK -&gt; c.MK -&gt; s.HP -&gt; j.MP -&gt; j.MK -&gt; Air Dash -&gt; j.HP -&gt; j.HK but she was caught off guard when Kami's Parasoul started the flow of battle by using Silent Scope, hitting Ayano's Filia and forcing her into a cripple state, his character started to set up a combo of s.LK x2 -&gt; s.MP -&gt; c.HP -&gt; j.HP -&gt; j.HK -&gt; s.LK x2 -&gt; s.HP x2 -&gt; Napalm Quake. That certainly took out a hefty amount out of her health...</span><br/><br/>At first it would be awesome yeah, but then you'd have to describe how they basically kept on repeating combos and all that.</div>"

He struggles to form friendships and relationships in general due to how often he is moved and passed along between his parents. Also gets sensitive about his height when mentioned.<br/><br/>Equipment/Skills: <br/>Weapon: Knives<br/>Armor: Light Weight Kevlar<br/>Accessory: Gas Mask to resist poison. Can be upgraded to null poison.<br/>Skills: Skilled with Knives of all kinds. When in battle he uses throwing knives when fighting long distance and close combat knives for up close battle. He is well versed in computer programming and software as well.<br/><br/>Background: Ryan's life is one of choice. Or to be more accurate, how he has no choice. His father was an American Military sergeant, while his mother was the CEO of a major company that makes electronics. They divorced soon after his birth and Ryan always blamed himself for it. His father wanted him to go to a military school while his mother wanted him to go to a French private school. He was never given a choice in where he went and he learned how to be a soldier with his father. Ryan's father was strict and whenever he did poorly in anything he was beaten. Ryan never said anything because he didn't think he had a choice in how he was treated. He tried to make friends with other cadets, but once again his life changed with no warning. His father wanted him to transfer to an American Military school so they could be closer to his home while his mother wanted him to transfer to a prestigious Chinese private school. He was given no choice and he quickly learned how to speak Chinese. He joined a club and began making friends then, his best friend was a boy named Tyler. Tyler understood him like no one else ever did. But again, things changed. His mother wanted him to live with her in Japan for the remainder of his school years while his father wanted him to drop out and join the American Military. He was given no choice and he was sent to live with his mother in Japan. Tyler felt that they couldn't be friends anymore sending Ryan into a spiral of depression and self harm. The only time he has made a choice was when he demanded to go to public school in Japan while his mother wanted him to attend another private school. Even then his mother made it seem like it was her decision. Ryan is now in public school but he stays away from other people. He knows that if he tries to make friends then he will be moved again.<br/><br/>Persona: Janus<br/><br/>Abilities: Agidyne, Garudyne, and Tempest Slash.<br/><br/>Strengths: Fire, Wind, and Cut.<br/><br/>Weaknesses: Ice, Darkness, Lightning, and Pierce.</div>"

I kept trying to bring myself to come back, knowing that the longer I stayed away, the harder it was to get back into everything. But that was really the problem to start with. Everything started to feel like a 'job' I had to do. Which is absolutely ridiculous. I enjoyed RP because I loved being creative online with other people, not because I wanted another responsibility on my shoulders. But that's what it felt like, which was why I requested my hiatus. <br/><br/>Unfortunately, my feelings haven't changed. I still care about the people I've met and the content we've created, but the actual act of 'RPing' isn't fun for me anymore. So I've decided that I'm leaving for good. I am a little sad, like I'm admitting defeat or something, but I know it's the right thing to do.<br/><br/>Thank you so much for letting me into your little pieces of imagination. I've had a lot of fun. :D Take care. <br/><br/>P.S. Many thanks to Sho for his patience and I know he'll take care of this RP awesomely. He's one of the most committed GMs I've met, and Then don't say that lightly. <br/><br/>Also a shout out to my two closest friends in this RP, Sword and Sen. Sword, I hope your service goes well, and feel free to hit me up if you do end up in Britain. And Sen, don't forget we need to double SCH it up someday! </div>"

Excellent neutral, wake-up game is amazing. No real major flaws. Stances are all good for different reasons.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">I - The Magician<br/>Matthew Harvester:</span><br/>Extremely short range attacks. Only thing beyond short are his laggy persona specials. Combo game is subpar. Can heal a negligable amount with a special.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">II - The Priestess<br/>Shirohane Kotori:</span><br/>A turtling kind of character. Defensive options are great, but going on the offensive proves to be an issue. Can heal status effects easily with DP.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">III - The Empress<br/>Hamada Leiko:</span><br/>Plenty of pokes and she can convert them into some decent damage fairly easy.

At least he can induce Shock?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">V - The Hierophant<br/>Gen Itoshi:</span><br/>Hardly uses his persona. Strong neutral. Most of his moves are pretty safe and his wake-up game is solid. Needs meter to do much damage though.

Character is broken due to glitches that will be addressed by ArcSys before release.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">VII - The Chariot<br/>Akane Hanezawa:</span><br/>Excellent combo game, very high damage. Doesn't have much to do on block or on the defensive, but her sheer strength lets her turn the tides easily once she gets a good hit in.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">VIII - The Justice<br/>Tanaka Toma:</span><br/>Relies on mix-ups. Just generally pretty alright. His speed is his most formidable strength.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">IX - The Hermit <br/>Ayano Wakahisa:</span><br/>Her traps can prove a very powerful tool, but difficult to use properly. Gimmick mudo counter that deals extreme damage (basically a 1HKO by the time the counter is full) at ten hits from darkness moves. Can be amazing in the right hands but easy to use poorly.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">X - The Fortune <br/>Hashimoto Sato:</span><br/>A pretty decent sniper, though lacks defensive options and reversals if they get close. Damage isn't too high either.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XI - The Strength<br/>Noboru Yamamoto:</span><br/>Simple-minded rushdown. Has high health and does high damage, but his moves are predictable and punishable.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XII - The Hanged Man<br/>Alexei Dragunov:</span><br/>Strong grappler. His command grabs are fierce. No debilitating flaws. Has some annoying super armor, but nothing too bad.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XIII - The Death<br/>Chiaki Nettu:</span><br/>Reliant on persona, but can hold her opponents off on her own. Mostly good because her defensive game is incredible, allowing her to whittle her enemy down while she avoids damage.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XIV - The Temperance<br/>Shizuka Otonashi:</span><br/>Has to apply buffs to get good at anything, making the start rather rough. Strong af once they're up.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XV - The Devil<br/>Jun Himura:</span><br/>Frame data is just kinda sad. Would be high tier if attacks didn't take longer than she did to come out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XVII - The Star<br/>Seighardt Kasumi:</span><br/>Great at footsies, good pressure. Moveset is limited unfortunately. Defense leaves a lot to be desired.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XVIII - The Moon <br/>Mako Moritomi:</span><br/>Not pictured. Suffers from same glitches as Ryan.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">XIX - The Sun <br/>Rikimaru Elsworth:</span><br/>A heavy hitter with good range, though his attacks are violently laggy and incredibly unsafe. Reliant on persona, leaving him pretty much useless in persona break.</div></div></div></div><br/><br/>Obviously don't take all of that seriously. I'm not the best with FG terms and shit either.

Trapper probably isn't the best fit but I just like the idea of mudo being an indirect attack considering its original nature in the games. I didn't specify, but Akane is a powerhouse/grappler type that has the stronk command grabs all the nooblets complain about.<br/><br/>As for Noboru, I get what you mean with the psuedo-grappler but I've always envisioned him as a Lil Mac type, overall straightforward and strong but has debilitating flaws. Rui would've just been the Ryu, but when Sho and I made mock-ups, he had Rui with a stance system of a drawn and sheathed sword. He's like Narukami but significantly more complex.

He's Wright in my mind that he finds sentimental items. He's Faust in the sense that the items are RNG. If you collect 3 different sentimental items in a row, if Noboru can land a hit on an enemy with a certain move he powers up insanely. But if you find two of the same item or a non sentimental item, the counter starts over. He has about 1.5 times the health and damage of Wright without the power up, and gets the same multipliers with his power up. The Maya part comes in with Aiko, who trips up trying to protect his brother.<br/><br/>That's how I envision it anyway.</div>"

I'll be away for two months. I'll probably be back in 2 months or so, but in the event I don't, i've decided to leave a few sentimental goodbyes for you all. Fun little leaving messages.<br/>First up,<br/><br/>Oblivion, Flood, Hero, Reaper, Xlegs and Fed. I may have not known you guys for long, but you seem pretty cool and it's a shame i won't get to hang around for a while longer and get to know better. Maybe in a few months.<br/><br/>Yo. My main man Dia. You may not be the most vocal man around, but that by no means mean you ain't a cool nigga in my book. Keep doin what you doin. Good shit man, good shit.<br/><br/>X, mah shitpostin bro X. Same thing. You gotta keep yo shit up, especially with me being gone. Don't fail in your job, you got a good sense of humor about you.<br/><br/>Haru. The Bara Trash Queen. We may have not talked much, but we've been in this RP through thick and thin and you gotta stick to it. Keep it up, do it for me. Continue the legacy.<br/><br/>Takaru- Not much to say here, keep it cynical my friend.<br/><br/>Itano-You ain't even here faggot why am I writing something for you. <span class=""bb-s"">&lt;3</span><br/><br/>Pudds-Keep being the 100% Orange Juice lover you are! And get a goddamn pc, it's better in every way! Also you control Noboru in non dungeons now notmyproblemanymore.<br/><br/>Ama-Yo. I know your struggle trying to look for a job. Just to let you know if you need some words of inspiration, i'll leave some right here, just so even if i'm gone,you can still look at something. You are quite a kind person, and someone who always wants to repay kindness, even to a fault. No matter what people say, I believe in your ability to succeed. You just need to believe, and I know you can do it.<br/><br/>Sho-the true hero of this rp. Rescuing it from the dark depths of abandonment, and nearly single-handedly bringing it back to life and giving it purpose. You dedicate time to giving every character a hand drawn persona, and that dedication is admirable. I know you'll be one of the few to have an rp succeed, simply because of your post ethic, and dedication.<br/><br/>Last one. Phew.<br/><br/>Sen- my nigga. My main man. My brotha from anotha motha. You've been here for a while and we've shittalked each other to no end. We've had some amazing times, and played some sweet games together. I may shit on you for your slow posting, but truth is, you do 10,000 times better than I ever will. Keep it up. You are like a major artery for this rp. You keep the blood flowing and let it stay alive. And, if worse comes to worse, and some stupid-ass war breaks out before I can come back, well, we've had some golden runs together brother. I'll see ya around.</div>"

Your character is also quite smart, meaning he knows social cues so is able to function as a normal human being.<br/><br/>His self-destructiveness can come of arrogance. You can offer help...

It is the fourth film based on the novel The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and is a sequel to the original 1983 film adaptation. The film stars Riisa Naka as the protagonist Sato Hashimoto, daughter of the original story's protagonist Kazuko Yoshiyama.

All parts of moves depending on Chronos can't use him, side b can't be followed up, and down b is unusable (though traps already out remain functional). Chronos is revived (flourish upon using to signify) upon activation of Final Smash.

Hits three times with a 3rd strong hit.<br/>Up Tilt: Draw blade and slash up.<br/>Side Tilt: Stance slash, has good range.<br/>Down Tilt: Sweep with a backhand swing with sheathed sword.<br/>Dash Attack: Move blindingly a short distance and slash anyone he dashed through. Easily puts him on the other side.<br/><br/>AERIALS:<br/><br/>Neutral: Horizontal draw slash.<br/>Up Tilt: Backflip as he slashes horizontally.<br/>Forward Tilt: Pull entire sword up and do an overhead draw slash.<br/>Backward Tilt: Strike with the butt of the sheath. Comes out very quickly.<br/>Downward Tilt: Downward arcing draw slash.<br/><br/>SMASH ATTACKS:<br/><br/>Up Smash: Summon Askr, causing him to thrust his blade into the air. Has huge height, but is fairly thin, so you can be very close to him and this won't hit.<br/>Side Smash: Summon Askr to do a strong side slash. Huge range, but actually very very slow.<br/>Down Smash: Draw blade and plunge it into the ground. As he does so, Askr is summoned and does the same, and a shockwave strikes enemies around him. Has a good sideways hitbox, but not as impressive as his up and side smash ranges. It also has upward hitbox from Rui's position, meaning it will hit enemies just above him easily.<br/><br/>THROWS:<br/><br/>Pummel: Jab them in the stomach with the hilt.<br/>Upward throw: Smash them into the air using the hilt while sheathed.<br/>Forward throw: Let go before doing a spinning side kick.<br/>Backward throw: Kick their legs and let them trip forward before kicking them mid-fall.<br/>Downward throw: Kick their legs and trip them before stomping them.<br/><br/>SPECIALS<br/><br/>Standard B: (Garu) Charged move, charges a close to mid-range windslash that hits directly horizontal in the direction he's facing. Is incredibly quick and has good damage, but low launch. Upon starting charge, Rui has superarmor for a split second.<br/>Alt 1: (Garulao) Charges a spherical slash storm around himself, the size and damage dependent on the charge time. Has great launch, but very low range. Hits multiple times.<br/>Alt 2: (Magaru) Exact same as standard, except the slash goes behind him too. Its range is much less, as half of it is cut off from the front to strike behind.<br/><br/>Up Special: (Gale Slash) Summons Askr and rides him in an upward rising slash. Pretty good damage but and can be combo'd off of some grabs.<br/>Alt 1: (Getsu'ei) Summons Askr and jumps off of Askr's sword while swinging. Only has a hitbox around Askr's swing, has really good recovery but that's it.<br/>Alt 2: (Tempest Slash) Summons Askr who will do a faster version of Gale Slash. Rui will not ride Askr who will carry anyone hit high into the air with strong launch, but will jump a bit on using this. Very bad recovery, but is a great execution.<br/><br/>Side Special: (Cleave) Send out Askr to dash slash. Rather quick and can be combo'd off of a low percentage side smash and most percentages on side tilt. Can be charged to send out Askr at longer range. He will inevitably stop at the first opponent.<br/>Alt 1: (Zan'ei) Rui will dash as well and slash alongside Askr. Slower than Cleave so it can't be combo'd, but it strikes twice and can be used for recovery. Charging will increase range and damage.<br/>Alt 2: (Vorpal Blade) Chargeable and very low range, but hits a huge multitude of times depending on charge time, and is a very good execution. Summon's Askr who will slash in front of him with a big maelstrom of slashes to strike multiple times.<br/><br/>Down Special: (Sukukaja) A counter. Upon taking a hit, disappear and reappear on the same position, slashing the opponent. The counter itself has no launch and low damage but has enough hitstun to allow the player to attack for free.<br/>Alt 1: (Life Drain) A counter. Upon taking a hit, drain the opponent's health. Has a slightly more strict timing.<br/>Alt 2: (Masukukaja) A counter. Upon taking a hit, dash and strike in a large area, with decent launch and damage based on whatever hit.<br/><br/>FINAL SMASH: &lt;redacted&gt;<br/><br/>&lt;redacted&gt;<br/><br/>(Shit's a spoiler yo)<br/><br/>VICTORY POSES<br/><br/>First: Pull headphones off and adjusts himself.<br/>Second: Swings sheathed sword over shoulder.<br/>Third: Draws sword and swings it around before planting it into the ground.<br/>Special: <br/><br/>TAUNTS<br/><br/>Up Taunt: Calls down a hawk for a moment before letting it fly off.<br/>Side Taunt: Swing sheathed sword over shoulder and beckon with the other hand.<br/>Down Taunt: Draw sword and point it forwards before twirling it and sheathing it elegantly.<br/><br/>COSTUMES:<br/><br/>Standard: Warakuma High uniform<br/>Alt 1: Gekkoukan High uniform<br/>Alt 2: Yasogami High uniform<br/>Alt 3: Seven Sisters High uniform<br/>Alt 4: St. Hermelin High uniform<br/>Alt 5: Shujin High uniform<br/>Alt 6: SMT4 Samurai uniform<br/>Alt 7: Raidou Kuzunoha costume<br/><br/>EXTRA INFO:<br/><br/>Can your character:<br/>Wall Jump?: Yes<br/>Wall Cling?: No<br/>Crawl?: No<br/>Withstand attacks (Superarmor)?: No<br/>Jump more than twice?: No<br/><br/>TROPHY INFORMATION<br/><br/>Regular Trophy - Side taunt plus Askr up smash behind him.<br/><br/>Final Smash Trophy - &lt;redacted&gt;<br/><br/>PALUTENA’S GUIDANCE<br/>wat<br/><br/>EXTRA:<br/><br/>TAGS: Who the hell else is there to tag?</div></div></div>"

Marth is definitively better imo, as proper spacing can lead to higher damage and earlier kills. The only difference between the two is that Lucina doesn't have a tipper (dmg/kb equal along the whole blade as opposed to sweetspots &amp; sourspots) and is marginally shorter. Lucy is easier to do well with tho imo.<br/><br/>You might wonder about my boy Roy. Unlike in Melee, he's Marth But Better. Some might argue otherwise, but to me he's a semi-clone like Lucas. I like to call him the result of a fusion between Marth and Ike. He's a lot faster and stronger, while also falling significantly faster. His sweetspot is instead at the base of the blade, meaning for optimal damage you need to basically punch them in the face. Most of his moves are generally the same (with the exception of what is basically Ike's dair and Roy's own neutral B) albeit with at least slightly different animations/properties. He plays differently and a lot of people consider him clearly superior to the other Weeb Emblem chars. Also worth noting is that a fully-charged neutral b (about 5 secs of charging) from him is either an instant shield break or KO. Like you literally can not survive a full charge unless you defend perfectly. Good thing it takes two years to charge up.<br/><br/>As for Lucas, he is a semi-clone of Ness, while Luce is a full clone. Lucas obvs is very similar to Ness, particularly in his specials, but they all have different properties. PK Fire is a single hit and fires straight forward in midair, so it's not as good of a punish/move in general as Ness's. I personally use it for a careful approach or doing a weird B-reverse thing with it to retreat. PK Freeze is basically Flash but a lot faster and a lot a weaker. It obviously freezes them and you can rack on some damage as they are frozen. PK Magnet is the same except for it's in front of him and has a hitbox. PK Thunder does multiple hits and goes further when launched but does a lot less damage / knockback.<br/><br/>Most of his other moves are pretty much different in some way with the exception of fsmash, uair, fair, dtilt, and jab. Even then they're at least slightly different. Also worth mentioning is that Lucas has a tether grab, which has its own pros and cons, but the primary difference besides range/speed is that he has access to zair, which is him throwing out his little tether in mid-air. It can't grab as you can imagine but it's a quick tool for spacing and poking that most fighters don't have.<br/><br/>Well anyway that was much more than I needed to write but there you go</div>"

Plus some people think her shitty sword allow her to have a more ""aggressive"" playstyle but I'm 99% sure you could do the same with proper spacing/zoning with Marthy-pan. Either way good luck, and with their frame data you'll need it.<br/><br/>Roy hasn't gotten much results in high-level play yet, but I still stand by my anime husband. Higher tier than Marth at least. As for Lucas, yeah he's not top tier like Ness. Most of the DLC characters (except for Mew2, who is debatably low mid/high low) are considered either low high or high mid iirc.

This was the first time he’d made it, as per Rokurou’s request, and everything was already going downhill. Sato had already restarted from scratch after confusing the salt with the sugar, and again after dropping the bowl, and he never even got to the step where he put in the milk, but without milk… The boy let out a long groan, slinking to the ground. It was official. Cooking had killed Hashimoto Sato.<br/><br/>	As if it was last night, Rokurou appeared from somewhere and stopped in front of the deceased boy. Sato didn’t bother moving until he heard the fridge open, which he turned to look at. From somewhere within the fridge, Rokurou pulled an almost-empty jug of milk out from the back. Sato immediately jumped to his feet. “Give me that milk, Rokurou! I need it for the pancakes.”<br/><br/>	“No,” he simply replied, unscrewing the cap.<br/><br/>	“I swear to God—“  Sato was practically shouting, but when Rokurou started to chug the rest of the milk, he was practically screeching. “ROKUROU NO!” Sato poised for action, memories of battles past rushing into his head. The muscle memory kicked in and he launched, lunging to grab the milk jug from Rokurou’s sinning hands. The taller boy simply dodged and help Sato back with a hand. Before Sato could launch another attack, Rokurou whipped the now empty jug away from his lips, milk streaks down his chin, and let out a gasp for air.<br/><br/>	This killed the Sato, as he immediately collapsed back down to the ground after he realized what had happened. It was hopeless. The pancakes would never be completed, a failure. He was a failure. It was all over. The only thing that brought him back from the brink of death was the sound of Rokurou’s voice. <br/>“There’s another jug in the fridge, dude.”</div></div></div>"

I notice characters of Justice tend to try and avoid fights if they can (based on characters appearing in the games), but if they must, they'll do it, usually with little hesitation. They're very resolve-driven people.<br/><br/>The partying can stay just don't party too crazy, but the fighting needs to change to suit the arcana.<br/><br/>Once that's done your character is fine anyway.<br/><br/>Also if you want me to design your Persona you're free to ask me, just PM me and we'll talk.

Ah, well I guess I can just skip the drama and sob story, huh? And come to think of it, it's not even a sob story really, haha. You guys may have noticed my recent absence and inactivity, I'm pretty sure of it, and I'm honest to god sure you may/may not be waiting for me to post a reply (Esp. Sho, sorry mate.) but, let's just say that life has gotten...A little too complicated as of late. One of the biggest reasons for this being the fact that my family has to get ready to move and fly away to the big o'l US of A and finally catch up with a long lost relative, now don't get me wrong, the Philippines is a great country and I'm sure most of you would say the same thing to your homelands (Okay, maybe not all. Especially when you see the nitty and gritty parts of a country,), but quite frankly it does get kinda boorish and boring after a while. So anyway, the paperwork for it is kinda one of the things in my priority list, with school not being far behind.<br/><br/>With all the current hubbub of life, <span class=""bb-b"">AND</span> school being a lot more active recently, I just found out that I don't exactly have that much time in my day-to-day basis for Roleplaying anymore, other than this, both of the RP's I've joined have already hit rock bottom and are inactive, it's come to the point where Roleplaying has become one of my least priorities in life and to be quite honest, I'd much rather focus on school, it's about time I've gotten a bit more serious and exerted more effort in it. Now, don't get all mad or sad or both, I'll make a return eventually, but don't expect it to be like Sword's which was like, two months? Four? Expect it to be around like...Eight? Nine? Maybe even a year...So, deeply, deeply, deeply, sorry to all of you.<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sho-minazuki"">@Sho Minazuki</a> Keep it cool and strong, GM!

I just feel bittersweet, it's like one big picturebook that I'll re-read one day and just go all, ""Wow look at all of us acting like idiots."" I really wish I could've made Ayano talk and befriend more of you guys' characters, she always seemed to be so alone and/or with Kami, well I guess now they can really be together as lifeless husks together in love.

She's not from warakuma, moving here to attend high school, and she doesn't carry her fathers name (using her mothers maiden name) while in Warakuma. While it can be known that her father has a daughter named 'Akane', It's not exactly a rare name and wouldn't indicate her being the same person.

Really quiet. He can go entire days without saying a single word out loud and, obviously, this hasnt earned him any friends. This is partially due to shyness and fear of getting hurt, but mostly because he does not understand many of the things that normal people do. He has a completely logical outlook towards any situation, and often has a bad habit of expecting everyone else to act the same way, which can lead to him getting extremely angry and frustrated at everyone around him. <br/><br/>Despite this, he will never run from a fight or confrontation, and will also show absolutely no quarter if someone innocent is being hurt. This can range from a fight with his persona, to a simple attempted mugging. This complex stems from his desire to prevent anything like his...accident, from happening again.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>: As far as weaponry goes, he doesn't carry anything, although he knows basic self defense skills. He is quite unfit though, so don't expect him to beat down much tougher opponents.<br/> He is also very gifted academically, thanks to all the tutors he was taught by in his youth. He is also capable of thinking up complex plans and tactics in a fight, if he needs to. Unfortunately, his dislike for staying out of a fight can lead to him being in the thick of the action, when he would be much better suited on the sidelines making plans and helping the others. <br/>As far as armor goes, he usually wears a school uniform in school and a orange hood out of it, mostly to hide his damaged face. He also quite likes wearing suits, although he hates it when they get dirty. In any outfit, he wears a white patch over his missing eye.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: Katsuro was born to a high up executive of an extremely large property development company in Tokyo. His father divorced his mother shortly after he was born, and, after a while, Katsuro found out why.<br/><br/>His mother was extremely domineering and emotionally abusive, treating her son like a glorified pet, forcing him to dress, act and even speak exactly how she wanted at all times. He grew up with tutors and never knew the company of other children, save only the children of the other company executives, which he met every now and then at gatherings. She wanted him to follow in her footsteps in business and drilled into his head that he needed to be pragmatic with dealing with other people, being careful never to rely on anyone too much and seeing opportunities wherever he could. This, coupled with his education, wealth and (he thought) good looks, caused a feeling of superiority over others.<br/><br/>When he was fourteen, he went with his mother to a building in the middle of construction. Despite his fear of her, he was able to slip away and decided to take a look around. After all, he would have to know about stuff like this. As this happened, a fire broke out on the second floor and the executives nearby were all evacuated. Katsuro didn't notice this until it was too late, and the fire lit a gas tank, causing an explosion that knocked him out.<br/><br/>He woke up two months later in a hospital bed. The explosion and fire had damaged several of his fingers, burned part of his face and most of his torso permanently and, worst of all, a splinter had taken out his left eye. This pushed his already fragile mental state over the edge, and he completely closed himself to the world.<br/><br/>Soon, the truth came out. The company had been losing a great deal of money in bad deals lately and several of the executives had been getting nervous. Therefore, his mother and a few others had paid some criminals to set fire to the building in order to claim insurance. Unfortunately for them, the police began to get suspicious and several of the plotters were arrested. <br/><br/>Katsuro was still in the hospital when this happened, but it couldn't have been more welcome. This news was all he needed to get out of his depression, and he announced that he would be testifying against his mother and the other executives.<br/><br/>After a long and fairly sensational trial, they were sent to prison for twelve years apiece. Katsuro found himself moved between relatives, including his father (whom Katsuro ended their relationship before it even started again by breaking his nose), until, finally, he was taken in by a cousin on his father's side in Warakuma.</div></div><br/></div>"

A bisexual who still believes in the Christian God, follows heretics and freethinkers yet rejects their more destructive causes, Samuru tries to find reasons behind people's actions so that he can empathize without endorsing. While only average in intelligence, Samuru knows this basic point; that those who do 'evil' actions do so because of reasons <span class=""bb-i"">that make sense to them</span>, not because they are naturally evil and destructive. And so he realizes these facts about himself.<br/><br/>That one, he is vulnerable to those who offer him love and friendship, and would gladly do what they say in exchange for those things. Because he realizes this, he can assess whether these offers are genuine.<br/><br/>Two, that he is not immune to envy of those smarter and richer and <span class=""bb-i"">better</span> than him, and that this envy can interfere with his' sense of whether an offer from those kinds of people had been made sincerely; he had been hurt before.<br/><br/>Three, that Samuru is afraid of being incompetent and weak, and he knows it. And so, he is afraid that he might be offered love and friendship only for people to prey on him.<br/><br/>And, four, the fact that being self-aware has limits, and that there will be things he is not good at, meaning that, one day, he'll have to <span class=""bb-i"">ask</span> someone for help, or accept an offer that he hadn't analyzed fully...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment/Skills</span>: <br/><br/>- Anything an Ordinary High Schooler can do or have.<br/>- History<br/>- Theology from books and Internet.<br/>- Poleaxes/Halberds, with a specialization in the <a href=""http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/zombie/images/3/39/Spadeweapon.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20101216175843"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">Chinese Monk Spade</a>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: Born to a Christian Family in Nagasaki, Samuru isn't actually related to the historical Shiro Amakusa; his family took his name after the Meiji Restoration and the re-legalization of Christianity. A kind, compassionate boy, Samuru nevertheless came to conflict with his faith when he realized that he was attracted to men as well as women at a young age, but managed to conceal it, and in the end, decided to do his own reading of religious texts and the development of theology through the times. He also read the texts of other religions, as well as books about their historical development. And he realized this; that the most successful Religions can both maintain continuity and yet change. What would have been abborhent in one era became accepted doctrine in another, and the process by which this happened can be tracked.<br/><br/>But seriously, he's Bi, still Christian, and his way of finding a balance between those traits has forced him to think seriously about how said balance can be maintained, and study his history and theology harder in order to realize that life is full of contradictions, and that reconciling contradictions is part of life.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Persona</span>: Shiro Amakusa<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:<br/><a href=""http://japanschristianheritage.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/statue_of_amakusa_shiro_at_hara_castle.jpg"" rel=""nofollow noopener"" target=""_blank"">japanschristianheritage.com/wp-content..</a><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>:<br/>Deathbound - 3 Points<br/>Drain Physical - 3 Points<br/>Dekunda - 2 Points<br/>Medirahan - 4 Points</div></div><br/></div>"

15896,Tales of Eyreseum - For the Emperor,CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76095-tales-of-eyreseum-for-the-emperor,['Casual'],2015-02-01 17:58:00,Sarpedon,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Name: Hagok Tor'vuul, affectionately named ""Jeff"" by his closest friend. (Pronounced with a kind of gagging sound at the ""g"" and a whistle through the last syllable. ""Jeff"" is pronounced normally.)<br/><br/>Age: 29 <br/><br/>Gender: Male<br/><br/>Race: Beastman (Satyr-esque with a Satanic Ram's head instead of a human head.)<br/><br/>Weapons: A massive black lance that is easily replaced and repainted each time it is damaged or destroyed in battle. The monolithic weapon is fitted with carefully carved, rune-etched cold-iron hardware designed to slay daemonic creatures and banish greater daemons and their hosts on contact. It also serves as a platform to display his pennant; a black triangular field with a silver fist in the middle of a gold pentagram. A <a href=""http://www.macdougallauction.com/Catalogue%20June%2011/media/mids/P5543.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">shashka</a>, a heavy steel mattock, a very simple, inelegant miséricorde, and a large <a href=""http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.com/img/products/original/bear_and_son_cutlery_gold_rush_cocobola_bowie_knife_1307446_1_og.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">fighting knife</a> round out his arsenal. While he typically doesn't do battle with the mattock, it is a more than capable weapon, and he has no qualms about using it as such. His knives, on the other hand, are his go-to weapons when not mounted and fighting from lizard-back. His sword is typically reserved for fighting in the thick of battle while he remains mounted.<br/><br/>Equipment: Travels in chainmail hauberk beneath a heavy leather vest, with a quilted calico-and-wool undershirt to provide some extra protection. Matching leather vambraces protect his forearms, but he refuses to wear gloves, citing the same reason he refuses to wear pants. However he has never actually explained to anyone the reason he refuses to wear pants, beyond the obvious, but even that hasn't been stated. A black wool cloak rests on his shoulders, generally swept back out of the way, rendering it mostly useless, save as another platform to display his personal heraldry. The clasp of his cloak is almost always hidden in the folds of his bloodstained coyote-and-black <a href=""http://www.torontoairsoft.com/assets/images/IMG_1574.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">shemagh</a>. A ridiculously thick, double-wrapped swordbelt holds his collection of weaponry, as well as whatever other trinkets he currently believes are worth hanging onto.<br/><br/>Inventory: His lance, sabre, mattock, knives, cloak, and scarf, with a bundle of sundry survival supplies and extra clothes tied tightly to the back of his loyal steed.  <br/><br/>Appearance: Standing at just over six feet in height, he's an incredibly muscular man, at least where parts of him are actually human. However the parts of him that aren't human still display remarkable strength. His goat lower half is covered in thick mottled black hair, and his hooves, shod in cold-iron, glint violently when people care to notice. His human torso possesses a kind of cut-from-stone appearance, which most attribute to the fact that he is just as likely to be a daemon as he is to be anything else. Charming is certainly not a word one would use to describe him, however he claims otherwise, joking that, were the person to simply stare deep enough into his alarmingly yellow eyes, they might see just how charming he is. Most do not understand that this is a joke. The ram's head sitting atop his incredibly strong shoulders is the very definition of daemonic, matching every description of a satanic symbol. He even sports the scars of daemonic battles, notably a wicked gash vertically across his right eye, the scar starting on his forehead, and running down over his cheekbone. Similarly, his left horn was severed at a quarter of the way down from the tip. It has since been spitefully resharpened, along with his right horn, though it remains so far intact, spiralling out horizontally and unbalancing his head thanks to his damaged horn. His steadfast refusal to do anything about it seems to indicate that he does not altogether disagree with his unpleasant image. Flesh-rending fangs can even be tucked away inside his ruminant jaws. Adding to his evil appearance is his large collection of tattoos that he has no problem showing off upon request.  <br/><br/>Background: The earliest memory that he possesses, is a massive hammer being swung down upon his skull. Unfortunately, he can no longer visualize the face of the man performing the act, but remains convinced he could recognize the offender if presented with him. After that, he woke up in a citadel, a massive, square place. Everything chiselled straight out of a mountain, and cut perfectly square. It was a very bastion of order, and home to a collection of knights. These men of war helped the beastman get back on his feet, and provided him with much-needed training in the art of Chivalry. The only other beastman among their ranks was even kind enough to take the amnesiac under his wing, re-naming the warrior and doing his best to aid the beginnings of the goat-man's quest. Before he finally departed for the world, the order named him Knight Errant of the Order of Cold Iron, and presented him with his own heraldry to bear with him. From there he went questing, unsure if he even cared to progress through the ranks, but grateful for their aid. The only thing he was truly sure about, was that he would have to find the man who thought it imprudent to slay him. Whoever they were, he would be sure to correct their mistake as permanently as possible. His first task, as a knight errant, was to find a steed. An act easily accomplished amongst the mountains he found himself in. The mountain ""<a href=""http://www.essentialjourneys.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Komodo-dragon-profile.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">lizards</a>"" were plentiful, and large enough and strong to bear a knight and all his gear. When properly trained, they could even be savage battle companions. Their greatest strength, however, had to be their warm-blooded nature. Technically, it meant they weren't lizards, but the knight wasn't about to argue with one about it. Indeed, after taming one, and training it to aid him in battle, no one else was willing to argue with the beast about what it was, either. It was a noble steed, and a vicious fighter, that was all that mattered.<br/><br/>Personality: Being a wanderer and more than happy on his own, he is often seen as a bit of a loose cannon, especially considering his appearance. However the cavalier is actually a perfectly co-operative sort, if a bit unyielding in his beliefs. Those who take the time to get to know him, usually people rescued by his endeavours, find the daemonic goat-man to be a bright, cheerful sort, if a bit slow at times. Certainly not the evil most picture when they see a daemonic creature riding toward them on an equally strange steed tamed in far-off mountains. He does have a rather antagonistic habit of cutting out the hearts of his enemies and holding them aloft while calling out ""Hail Kha-Beleth!"" in a rather disturbing, high-pitched voice(think South Park's Christmas Critters). Depending on his company, his mood, and the people he'd slain, he is also known to take bites of the harvested hearts, or even consume the entire thing.<br/><br/>Job: Wanderer, Cavalier, and Knight Errant. Perfectly happy as a Mercenary when times are tough. <br/><br/>Skills: Martial Weapon Proficiency, Small Weapon Proficiency, Light, Medium, and Heavy Armour Proficiency, Dual Weapon Proficiency, Light and Medium Shield Proficiency, Survival Proficiency, Riding Mastery. <br/><br/>Traits: Strong, Inspiring, Focused, Determined.<br/><br/>Magic: None.<br/><br/>Talent: Brilliant Tactical Mind  <br/><br/>Strengths: Strong, focused, tenacious, can incite terror with a glance, a force to be reckoned with from lizard-back <br/><br/>Weaknesses: Stubborn, uncomprehending of the arcane, appears rather horrifying to potential friends, less talented on his own two feet. (Less, as in relatively. He's not fucking paralysed or some shit.) <br/><br/>Theme: <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HotjzABI0w"" rel=""nofollow"">Amon Amarth - Live for the Kill</a></div>"

A lantern with candle and a satchel. Her satchel is precious to her as her name is sown inside it and her only clue to who she might be. In her satchel she has: a small bag with some coins, a drinking bag with alcohol of some sorts, a piece of rope, some left-over bandages, an apple and a small knife.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
Lethia has grey eyes and her hair is a dull blonde. She’s covered in bruises, scars and wounds of which she has no recollection getting them.
Her cloak is a dark brown while the rest of her attire is in a dreary gray. Her satchel is made of a smooth leather.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 
Lethia found herself in the middle of the wilderness without any memory nor clothes. She was wrapped up in bandages and her body hurt all over. The only thing in her possession was a satchel of a soft leather. It was roughly tied around her waist. Inside she found a drinking bottle, a bit of rope and a scroll with inside a map.

Thirsty as she was she took a big gulp of the liquid inside the bottle. As soon as she tasted it, she spit it out again. The alcohol was too disgusting for her to drink. Miserably she looked around her, looking for a clue as to where she was. She spotted a road and tried to get up to

reach it when the pain hit her. Distraught she looked at the bandages again, finally understanding that she was injured.

Like a snake crawling around her skin the panic hit her. She opened her mouth wide open and started shaking uncontrollable. No sound escaped her lips, no tears left her eyes. She just sat there until rain started to fall on top of her and her panic washed away.

She opened up the satchel and found the map. Not even one town rang a bell. After staring at the unknown towns and roads for what looked like hours she threw the useless thing away. Out of pure frustration she walked the torturing distance to the road. There she found a tumbled carriage and two humes. They were both staring at the raining sky with unseeing eyes. The female’s clothing were torn but right next to her was another satchel. One that looked a scary lot like the one she had around her waist. She collapsed next to the woman’s body and laid there in between the bodies until the pain subsided again.

She reached for the woman’s satchel and found a piece of cheese and dried out bread. Her stomach rumbled but the idea of eating made her nauseous. She put the food in her own satchel and emptied the other satchel. It was empty except for a knife. She then noticed the name stitched inside the satchel: Guinevere Lilian Ashwezir.

She looked at her own satchel and on a closer inspection she read Lethia Avalyn Ashwezir. Dumbstruck she looked at the woman and then at the man. Lethia realized she had lost a familymember, possibly her mother. Yet the woman didn’t look familiar, she couldn’t remember anything about her. The simple fact that she couldn’t even remember the woman lying dead in the dirt before her brought her to tears.

Crawling she went to the side of the road and started digging holes for the two dead people behind her. Inflicting pain upon herself while doing so, because she found she deserved it. How could she not remember them? How could she not remember herself?

She allowed herself to take the man’s socks and put them around her hurt feet and the cloak of the woman to keep herself warm, but she didn’t take anything else. Silently she buried the two people then collapsed next to it.

The next time she woke up she was in a strangers bed. Her bandages had been refreshed and an elder woman was dipping her face with a cold cloth.

“Don’t move too much, you’re very hurt.”, she said to Lethia before she called out for her husband.

The husband entered the room and Lethia felt panic she didn’t understand. The elder lady however pushed her husband out immediately. She took Lethia in her arms and started humming lullabies until the panic subsided.

“I’m so sorry, child. I didn’t realize that looking at a man might frighten you. Oh, the horrors you must have been in!”

Lethia remembered none of the horrors, but was glad for the soothing words of the lady.

“Where are my manners? My name’s Kioni Hazenfell, me and my husband found you next to... We found you and treated your wounds. What’s your name?”

Lethia opened her mouth and shut it when she realized that she wasn’t going to produce any sound. Instead she pointed at the satchel at her bed end. Kioni brought it to her and Lethia pointed at her name inside it.

“Lethia Ashwizer? Nice to make your acquaintance. Are you hungry?”

Apparently Kioni decided that she was and she went off to get some food.

For a couple of weeks she rested at the Hazenfell’s house. She had only gotten a few panic attacks and Kioni was always ready to sooth her. Her husband Elric came and tried to talk to her, trying to get answers about what had happened. When he realized Lethia couldn’t speak nor remember, he let her be and started talking about himself and Kioni.

Lethia felt at home and the Hazenfells both seemed to accept her in their house. Until their harvest got ruined by thieves. Neither ever said a word about making her leave, but Lethia felt it was time to go even though she hadn’t fully healed yet.

She left in the night leaving a note to express her gratitude, taking only the clothes they had given her, her own satchel, her father’s socks, her mother’s cloak and one of the many lanterns the household possessed.

Later on she started stealing to come by: a necklace here, some money there. People never gave her a second glance which really helped her improve on her stealing skills. Whenever she got the chance she took something from someone. Whatever she stole, she’d trade later for something she actually needed. Only her lantern, her satchel, her socks and cloak, where things she never traded around as those were precious reminders.

Nowadays she’s still roaming around stealing whenever needed, going unnoticed without effort. Days go by in which she feels like ending it all, so she might be with her unknown memories, but until this day she’s still floundering around, injuries and depressions and all.



<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Lethia appears to be the rather unfazed about the world around her, but can have spontaneous panic attacks. It’s not like she’s antisocial but her being unable to communicate made her stop seeking out other people. Though she doesn’t know how to speak, she does know how to steal unnoticed. Unable to withhold those urges to steal, she is what you could call a kleptomaniac. This is however born out of her need to steal to survive. Her abilities to survive are however greatly tested by her own depressions and clumsiness. Job: Thief Skills: Stealing, moving around without being noticed.
<span class=""bb-b"">Traits:</span>
Fast, quiet, easily distracted, kleptomaniac, clumsy (especially in social circumstances)
<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span>
Shapeshifting (untrained, slightly unpredicatable) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Talent:</span> 
Being almost impossibly silent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme:</span> I never know what to do with these... If you find a nice fitting song for her go add it... else well she’s soundless.. why should she have musical theme? Let the silence be her theme... :p

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
Standing slightly shorter than other Valorfellan Argonians his age, Aruk's scale colour is black mixed with crimson, especially over his face to give a 'bloody face' effect. He is relatively fit, having a slightly muscular build and athletic body. His head is adorned with spikes and horns that aren't curved, and his eyes are a fierce amber brown. 
He usually wears an iron cuirass, but wears hide tapered like long loincloth and wears leather boots and bracers. Around his neck is a gold crescent amulet on a steel chain he always wears, and Aruk always has his iron halberd close to him wherever he goes.
<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>
Aruk Si-Rak grew up in the nomadic life all Valorfellan Argonians know. His father was one of the many warriors that protected Akethari, and his mother was a huntress. Beside Aruk was his twin brother, Taluk. Each day wasn't to be wasted, Aruk was taught, and each day he and his brother were put to work from an early age, learning the hardship they would have to face to grow stronger.
Years go on as the city of Akethari moved across the dunes of the Southern Deserts, and Aruk and Taluk begin to take on more tasks. They both becomes apprentices to their father, and Aruk begins to practice with his weapon of choice, the Halberd, whilst Taluk practiced with the Spear. Eventually, after years of rigorous tasks, exercise and training, the twin brothers are disciplined and broken into strong warriors.
But instead of staying with the city, Aruk struck out on his own and left for the wide world, becoming a travelling mercenery. He left behind his family without a goodbye. 
But Aruk still keeps his memories of his family with him. A gold crescent amulet that was one half of the moon amulet he and his brother shared, given by their parents.
It was only 2 months since he left his people that he met a Seraveen named Crystal. The Dominion had conquered half of south Euraiya, and he had been ambushed by a Dominion patrol. Crystal found Aruk after he had slaughtered the genocidal patrol, mortally wounded and close to death in the Grimmvale forests.
 
She saved him, and formed a close bond with the Argonian. They both shared a passion for wanderlust, and together became a sort of dynamic duo. Crystal needed someone to protect her from beasts and people's unaware footsteps, and Aruk was indebted to her for saving his life.
 
Ever since then, the two have wandered out of and into the wartorn lands, helping whoever was in need and sometimes even for free.
 
Now the two find themselves in Grimmvale as the rumoured Tiberius Azklan begins his campaign to free the Empire.
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Quiet, but not shy, Aruk is hard to make conversation with, but he is fiercely loyal to those he deems worthy of his loyalty. He makes friends through comradeship most of the time, but seldom makes them through normal means. He can enjoy a good laugh occasionally, but takes his job seriously when it comes to working for others.

<span class=""bb-b"">Talent:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">-- Si-Rak Crescent :</span> Aruk wields his Halberd in a certain way, and has been inspired by the Crescent Shape. His own special Si-Rak Crescent is a sudden swipe with his halberd that is so subtle and swift that it leaves a glimmer that forms the shape of a Crescent Moon. Apart from looking shiny, the Si-Rak Crescent is useful for sweeping enemies out of Aruk's path, and can kill foes wearing inadequate armor to save them from the axehead.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Strengths:</span>
His discipline and honour as an Akethari Warrior, Aruk will spare a foe more often than not. He is a skilled warrior, and years of training and plenty of time facing real foes have hardened his skills In battle. In combat, his halberd is just as much his strength as it is his weakness, as he puts all his trust in the one weapon.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span>
His discipline and honour as an Akethari Warrior, Aruk will spare a foe more often than not. It is also his closeness and sentimentality at heart that makes Crystal, and anyone else that he calls friend, his weakness.

Her Flask. Or rather whatever she might be concocting inside it.

No Armor, only a leafy coat.
<span class=""bb-b"">Inventory:</span>
Nothing else. Just her flask. Aruk is the one who carries anything in their relationship.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
Small as shown by her size, covered from thigh to her neck in a leafy coat that changes with the seasons. She is constantly carrying some potion or another in her arms. She has 6 leafy wings that she can use to hover in the air for a small while, before she has to settle on someone's shoulder or on the ground again. She Has a childish voice but doesn't like it when people don't take her seriously.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>
Crystal is a smaller Seraveen that has been around for a very long time. Asking her age probably won't get you a straight answer but you might be able to guess if she mentions things about her past, which she does tend to mention. She was born in Enthero but was struck by wanderlust, so she left to make her own way in the world, exploring and ""helping"" people with her potions, sometimes if they wanted too or not. During one of her more recent episodes of being helpful she might have accidentally helped some evil guys wipe out a village or five, but it wasn't her fault since she didn't know what the potions she was making were going to be used for. She's made a lot more friends and sometimes they'll even try the potions she makes with whatever's lying around willingly!
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Crystal is caring and kind, usually making helpful potions or using the odd bit of actual magic to help someone in need, though she likes to experiment she only does it with consent and tends to try not to kill people with her potions, but sometimes they just keel over. That tends to bug her but she just goes out and makes more friends, although the last ones she made left her a bit miffed about putting her in a prison, though she's still gregarious and friendly to people around her.

<span class=""bb-i"">With Akatosh as my witness, let him testify with me that Tiberius was not a man, but Talos reborn: a living god.

We could dream that he could level mountains or flood valleys with the will of his voice, but the reality was greater than even those. The Living God showed those heathen elves the true power of the Empire, of unity and duty, and of destiny. His voice was greater than that of the thundering shouts of the Nordic stormlords, and his will was stronger than that of a dozen-many dragons. It was only god-given that he wore the mantle of Emperor. And for even just his indomitable determination to defeat the Dominion was enough for a score many legions of men to follow his beck and call that could only possibly mean victory for us all.

However, Ceyledon was only the beginning, and only made easy by the complacency of Elven egocentrism. Let me tell you now of the struggles Tiberius and his armies faced in Grimmvale...</span>

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

<span class=""bb-i"">Date - 2nd Winter's Grace (August), Year 48 of the 2nd Era
Time - 8:58 AM, Morndas, Morning
Location - Province of Grimmvale, Fort Caraculus, Border of Ceyledon</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Archers...! LOOSE ARROWS!""</span> The Eldar Captain bellowed. His very call manipulated the sudden release of many arrows, the noise of bowstrings flicking forward like a viper echoed in the air. Arrows flew into the morning sky, the arrowtips shining in the light of the young sun as the turned to fall towards their marks. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""Hoplites! Form testudo!""</span> The Imperial Centurion commanded amongst his men, and they all obeyed immediately. Suddenly, the enemy formation had become a giant tortoise of shields and spears. The arrows pelted the formation to no successful avail, and the archers were ready to fire once more. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""Aim for the gaps, do not let them advance!""</span>The Eldar Captain commanded of his archers. ""Sentinels! Prepare for attack!"" He ordered the infantry of the elves, who eagerly brandished their glaives. 

The arrows kept coming, bouncing off shields in most cases and in others punching through slightly. But no matter how many volleys landed upon the walking fortress, none of their inhabitants were injured.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Ready the ladders!""</span> The Imperial Centurion ordered once they were next to the wall. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""Move to the edge, don't let them climb up!""</span>The Eldar Captain ordered. His Elven soldiers did as they were told even before the order was given, stepping forward to have the better shot and drop on the Imperials. 

~-~-~

Close to the area of battle and concealed amongst the trees, a small group of troops watched. Among them was a man donned in the most perfectly-smithed armour that was ornamented to an extent of godlike. He stood at their head, watching the battle carefully.
<span class=""bb-b"">""Hold...""</span> The man went on with his hand held aloft. The men waited attentively for that one order. <span class=""bb-b"">""... Hold...""</span>The man continued. He took a breath, and saw the opportunity as the men assaulting the fort began to climb. <span class=""bb-b"">""NOW!""</span> The man ordered. Not even reaction time made to delay his command, and on the instant the ballistae fired their shots at the enemy.

~-~-~

A score two dozen Elves were impaled by only four simple yet deadly ballista bolts, shocking the Dominion forces. Even the Eldar Captain was too lost for words, and the hesitation of fear allowed the men to quickly ascend the walls. By the time the Elves realized what had just happened, the Imperials had already brought their tortoise formation to them. There was no stopping them now. 

The Elves fought back, but were quickly overwhelmed by a wave of righteous men of the Empire, and once the leader was too felled and the rest forced into submission, the Imperials raised their flag high and proud over the battlements of Fort Caraculus. 

~-~-~

In the distance, the man smiled with satisfaction.

He was no other than the rumoured Tiberius Azklan himself.</div>"
15901,Tales of Eyreseum - For the Emperor,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76095-tales-of-eyreseum-for-the-emperor,['Casual'],2015-03-01 16:28:00,Sarpedon,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was late. Or, he supposed, judging by the sky, it was early. Regardless of how one wanted to describe the time, however, it was dark out, and there were stars in the sky. The moon was full, and it lit up the landscape like a distant flare. The person in question was clearly displeased to be up and about at this hour, and his steed shared the opinion. The giant lizard was obviously grumpy, and for a beast that had trouble expressing its emotions, such a state was dangerous for whatever had disturbed the duo. The monstrous lizard crept silently, just below the crest of a hill, while it's rider waited, hunched on its back, a lance clutched tightly in one hand, and his other hand rested on the hilt of his sabre. He was patient as they moved quietly, not relishing the idea of what came next. Of course, he didn't have a choice, so the satyr gritted his teeth, and finally nudged his steed onward, over the crest.

The other side of the hill revealed a horrific sight. There was a ring of probably a score of cultists, if not more, and they were all covered in some off-white substance, dancing and chanting like fools. They had broken into a farmer's field, and had torn up the potato plants in the way of their circle. Now they appeared to be trying to summon something. As he rushed quietly toward the insane daemon worshippers, with only the sounds of his armour clanking, and his other equipment rustling to give him away. As he charged, the warrior noticed what appeared to be empty milk cans, destroyed butter churns, and a bag of salt. That last item surprised him slightly, but the goat-man was undeterred. Some daemons might be unbothered by salt, but cold iron had yet to fail him. Unfortunately, he was just a tiny bit too late, as the rift his prey had been trying to open finally tore itself into being.

It made his job easier, in a way, as now he only had one thing to slay. At the same time, he now had to watch as the daemon that had been summoned devoured its worshippers. His lizard hissed in warning as the monster ripped into reality. The daemon-slayer was shocked at the sight, but he had been doing this for long enough that he didn't flinch as he rushed toward death or glory. The thing that had just forced itself into reality looked like it might have been a baked potato at some point. The eyes it possessed had grown into long, vine-like tentacles, however, and they seemed capable of acting of their own accord, as each one lashed out and grabbed up a dairy-soaked cultist. The potato-daemon hung there, in the air, flailing its followers about for a brief moment. And then it seemed to realize that someone was intending to do battle with it. The knight continued his rush, and was forced to watch, as the potato-thing split in half, revealing a mashed-potato centre, into which it stuffed the men and women that had brought it into being. Then the thing snapped closed once more, and seemed to roil internally, things moving around visibly beneath its potato-y skin.

Finally, his lizard still rushing at its break-neck pace, the knight errant reached his destination. With his lance levelled at the monster, he made contact, his weapon crashing into the beast. Too late, it realized that this man was not just some foolhardy warrior. He was a bona-fide daemon killer, and as his lance ripped right through the massive floating potato, he released the thing, his steed not having to be told to rush past the thing before turning around. When they finally wheeled about, they were treated to the sight of their enemy flagging quickly, its strength fading with the curse of cold iron burning through its heart. In response, the knight drew his sword, and urged his steed to charge once more. As they rushed toward the thing, the satyr stood up in his saddle, and then his mount leapt into the air toward the still-flying tuber-daemon. The knight followed suit, jumping from the back of his lizard to land on top of the thing. While he began slicing up his opponent, his steed was using its claws to tear holes in the potato's skin. With cold iron still touching it, the monster couldn't heal, so the two of them set to work dismantling it as its tentacles flailed in pain. If they could have heard in the potato-spectrum of sound waves, the pair would have been deafened. Thankfully, they could not, and thus, dispatching the daemon was an easy task.

In but a pair of moments, they had the thing shredded, and collapsed onto the earth. The lizard screamed in triumph, and the knight errant beside it sighed with relief, rewarding his companion with a hug. ""Good work, Zan."" he whispered to the lizard. It flicked its tongue in agreement, and the two of them assessed the damage. The warrior found his lance unmarred, save for the mashed potatoes that coated it. Poking through the ridiculous amount of mashed potatoes that now strewed the ground, he discovered a decided lack of bodies. Not that a little blood would have bothered the goat-man. He retrieved a bowl and a fork from his things strapped to his steed, and helped himself to the perfectly-seasoned mashed potatoes. For a bunch of psychotic cultists, they certainly knew how much milk and butter and salt was required to turn a potato daemon into delicious mashed potatoes. He chuckled at that thought, and that turned into laughter as his mount tried some of the dead daemon as well. The look of disgust it managed as it struggled to get the stuff out of its mouth was hilarious, and the knight had to help his lizard before the thing lost its mind.

""We'll find you something bloody for breakfast, don't you worry."" he assured the beast, patting its head before returning to his snack. ""Let's get out of here, eh? No need to get blamed for wrecking things that we didn't."" he suggested as he ate, and the pair headed for the nearby road, back over the ridge they'd charged from. It was late, or early, but the both of them were up and about now, so there was no point in trying to make camp. There would be no sleeping while the adrenaline was still pumping through them. And with the darkness still around them, it would be easier to find something for his companion to eat. The knight wasted no time in removing his pack from the monster's back when it indicated that prey had been located. He slung his supplies over his back and continued walking, knowing that his mount would have no trouble finding him when it was done. For the moment, he planned to enjoy his bowl of mashed potatoes, and continue walking, wondering which town was next on this endless road south...</div>"

But they were no further away from Aruk than the fight he now faced. The Valorfellan who was far from home drew his tested halberd, and then glanced to his shoulder. 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#800000"">""Hold on, little one.""</font></span> Aruk murmured to his companion. The little Seraveen looked at Aruk with a smirk and nodded as she used his pauldron as a small shelter like she usually did, clutching her little bottle within. 
<font color=""#00ff00""><span class=""bb-b"">""Don't you worry about me, let 'em have it!""</span></font> She cheered. 

Aruk smiled and then disciplined his expression in the next moment, snarling as he leaped out at the enemy through a hail of fire and lightning. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""Kill the abomination!""</span> The leader of the Eldar Sorcerors bellowed as they continued to skirmish with their spells. Aruk stepped quickly and easily upon ground that did not shift cunningly like the sands of his desert home, easily dodging every spell with no narrow but rather clear escape. The morale of the supremacist elves did not dimmer in the light of their ethnocentric rage, and Aruk was happy to oblige them the consequences of their morality. 

With a quick lunge and roar, Aruk moved into the center of the three mages and performed his signature execution, spinning with his halberd faster than the elves could think to cry out. A glimmer of a crescent was cast by faint strands of sunlight as the axehead cut cleanly through each sorcerer's neck cleanly in a single motion. Elven blood spurted and spilled from their bodies as they fell to their knees and to the ground. There they would fertilize the soil that would otherwise spurn them for the filth they truly were, as Aruk saw it.

<font color=""#800000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Shizarr cruzz narsis... All-Father have mercy on your souls.""</span></font> Aruk murmured. Crystal poked her head out of his pauldron to look on them, and she simply tsked at the sight. 
<font color=""#00ff00""><span class=""bb-b"">""If they have any!""</span></font> She retorted, before poking her tongue out and blowing a raspberry at the dead elves. Aruk smirked as he briskly brushed the few drops of blood his axehead drew from such a sudden cut.

Perfectly seasoned, once-daemonic mashed potatoes had to be the best kind of mashed potatoes. He supposed it helped that he was tired, and hungry, which would improve the taste of just about anything he put in his mouth. That didn't stop him from savouring his makeshift breakfast as much as possible, however. The daemon slayer was thus in a rather good mood as the sun started to peek out over the horizon off to his left. He stopped once the fiery ball had cleared the horizon by a full finger, having finished his bowl of potatoes. He dropped his pack on the roadside and descended carefully to the ditch to rinse out his bowl. The water was clear, and certainly crisp. Whether or not it was clean remained to be seen, but based on what he could see beneath the riffle, the water couldn't possibly be dirty enough to bother him any. Satisfied, he washed his dish and utensil thoroughly, taking his time and making sure everything was perfect. If it was done right the first time, it only ever had to be done once. And being a man of action, he didn't have time to be doing things more than once. With that in mind, just about everything he did, was done quickly, but carefully, and with as much thoroughness as he could afford at the time. In this case, his bowl and spoon were sparkling when he finished. He climbed back up to the road, where he shook off the items he had just cleansed, until they were dry enough to be put away.

Once his pack was repacked, the satyr took a moment to stretch and look around. In the light of day, things seemed much kinder. Even the most horrible of things couldn't be so scary when there was a sun shining down on them. That being said, even the bright shining rays of his daily companion couldn't shake the feeling he got when he gazed upon a far-off spire. The rolling hills made it hard to gauge the distance, but he figured it couldn't be more than a couple of hours away, all things considered. He decided that would have to be his next stop. It helped that the building was on his way, but even if it was out of his way, the site would have had to be visited. Anything that gave the goat-man a slight shiver in the base of his spine had to be investigated. Sometimes, very rarely, it was just an unfounded suspicion. Normally, it meant something evil was going on. With that in mind, he paused for another moment more, giving his steed a chance to catch up. And just as he prepared to toss his pack back onto his shoulders, he noticed the lizard rushing across the field. As it drew closer he could see crimson vitality dripping from its jaws, and he smiled. The beast was obviously well-fed, considering that it was soaked from its snout to its nostrils in the blood of whatever it had killed.

As his companion hopped the ditch and landed on the road, it hissed pleasantly, and its tail thumped against the ground with a violence that might have convinced most that the monster was angry. ""Hey buddy. Full and ready to go?"" he asked, the knight patting the lizard affectionately. It cracked open its jaws and let out an almost avian squawk in agreement. ""Sounds good."" he replied, and the ground was smote once more in glee. ""Go wash, you'll get blood everywhere."" he ordered, knowing his steed didn't understand every word he said. He just needed to include the keywords in his sentences to get things done. Pointing to the ditch helped, and the giant lizard quickly scurried over and thrashed its head about in the water, returning a good deal less red, though still dripping gore.

""Close enough."" the warrior laughed, hefting his pack, and strapping it onto the monster once more. The beast wiggled once he had finished tightening down the straps. A pat to its rump had signalled that it might thrash its hindquarters about. This forced everything to settle immediately, making the journey much easier. A quick re-tightening of a couple of straps, and everything was locked in place, ready to go. And it seemed his steed was eager to be off, always a plus. The daemon slayer mounted his scaly steed and the monster set off immediately. Its pace was similar to that of a trotting horse, but its shorter legs and twisting stride made for a smoother ride. It also seemed to cover ground quicker than most equine animals, though he supposed it might be a biased imagining. He'd yet to find a horse more reliable than his lizard, but that didn't mean there wasn't one. And he had to admit, even if there was one, he wasn't sure he wanted it. A warlizard was so much more entertaining to have around than a warhorse. 

The smoother ride was good for more than just extended journeys, though. In battle it made things like jousting, and aiming his swings so much easier, as he didn't have to worry about bouncing around. There was only the slight, side-to-side sway to worry about, and that hardly got in the way like the up-and-down motion of a horse could, especially considering it was much more subtle. In the end, though, the knight supposed the real advantage was indeed on long journeys, however. With no violent jostling to worry about, he could rest more easily over long distances. Unfortunately, this was not one of those instances, as he had a destination in mind, and it was nearby, relatively speaking. And with his unpleasant feeling only growing stronger as they grew near, rest was not something he was about to be able to get. With that in mind, the knight spent his time preparing instead.

As they drew closer, he prepared his weaponry for battle, and adjusted his armour so it sat properly, and more comfortably. There was only so much he could do to prepare, however, and the daemon slayer quickly began to wish they might arrive already, so that he could get to slaying whatever monstrosity he had to face, rather than having to wait around for the two of them to arrive at their destination. Fortunately, there was only so much distance between them and their destination, so arrival was inevitable. With some encouragement, the lizard that carried him picked up the pace, and soon enough the warrior and his steed arrived at their destination. It was a horribly over-grown chapel, once home to a sect worshipping Stendarr. The statue out front, that used to be an homage to the patron saint of charity had been horribly defaced, and even toppled over, however, and the doors had been marked with blood and obviously barricaded.

It didn't take much encouragement to get his monster to creep up to the doors, however, and the knight wasted no time in climbing onto its head so he could peek through the shattered window into the desecrated chapel. The first thing he noticed was the smell. The metallic tang of vital fluids underscored the cloying stench of death, and it was all laced through with the reek of unnecessarily expensive perfumes and incense. It seemed to be a strange combination, but it took but an instant of observation to see why. The cult inside was worshipping devils of greed, and to that effect, they had strewn expensive baubles all over the place, all of them soaked in the blood of their comrades. There had clearly been a struggle, and some of the cultists chanting had obviously sustained injuries in their efforts. Clearly these daemons measured their followers by the strength of their greed. Not that any of these men and women would survive the ritual. Their dead fellows littered the room, cast off as soon as they were drained of blood. Blood and gold seemed to be everywhere, every surface gilded first in the more accepted sense of the word, and then again using the more traditional definition. Incense burned in the centre of a badly-drawn pentagram, set alight on a pile of wood soaked in perfumes, all of it ringed by the still-living, psychotic people driven to this madness by some disastrous series of events.

Too late the knight returned to his seat. Too late he commanded his lizard to wheel about and prepare to charge. Too late he crashed down the door with the help of his monster. A thing far more terrifying, sent forth from the Nine Hells, had already manifested. Indeed, even as he had turned away to prepare for battle, the beast had heaved forth into reality, a massive, blob-like thing, with clawed stubs that could almost be called feet, but nothing that might be called legs. Its hide bore the palor of a miser that never left his home, with solid gold spines protruding down its back, each one encrusted with massive precious stones, the smallest of them the size of a tangerine. Its arms were not so stubby as its legs, one of them vaguely humanoid, also studded with gold and gems, with a hole in the centre of its palm. The other was more of a solid-gold, articulated scythe, than an arm, with sharpened gemstones forming the edge of the blade. The daemon seemed to lack a head of any kind, as it had been absorbed into the fatty mass of the rest of it. Instead, it had only jewel encrusted eyes above a gem-studded maw that seemed to seek only more valuable things to consume.

Even as the door to the chapel was splintered to matchsticks, the knight watched as his opponent finished its twirl. The monster seemed to have fired off foot-long gold spikes from its hollow arm, slaying three of the cultists. The rest of them had been rent in half by a swing of its scythe-arm. Then, because it wasn't terrifying enough as it was, the hell-spawned creature showed off its last, and probably its most terrifying trait. It puked a pool of molten gold in the path of the satyr and his steed. Thankfully, the lizard was more than capable of leaping over this new development, though its rider did lose hold of his lance in this manoeuvre. The goat-man was not terribly worried about that, however. Black lacquer and oak could be replaced, while cold iron could not be broken by anything daemonic, short of a devil focusing its full power on the stuff. So he relinquished the spear without worry, and drew his sword, thinking it would be more effective against the beast. He swayed out of the way of a swing from the thing's scythe, and his steed jumped to bounce off a wall, and send the pair sideways through the air. The greed daemon tried its hand at marksmanship, but a flying lizard was far harder to hit than a terrified and dying cultist. The knight had no trouble striking the stationary monster, however. That didn't mean he was glad of the hit. The beast immediately sprayed molten gold as if the stuff was being pumped through an artery, the liquid metal boiling against the warrior's armour as he continued on his rapid journey past the daemon. He cringed at the heat, and was thankful he was only splashed by a little bit of the stuff. 

His lizard turned around to watch the beast's wound seal up, however, and the daemon slayer grimaced. This thing was going to be more difficult to slay than the last one. He only wished he had some kind of abject poverty with which to strike it. That would surely end the beast in an instant. Instead, he supposed he would just have to keep trying. There was no sense in giving up after getting sprinkled with gold. But he didn't think that flying through the air would be the best choice for future assaults. Instead he nudged his steed into skittering about laterally around the monster, leaning in to hack at its limbs when the thing made the mistake of holding too still. The greed daemon was an awful shot with its gold spike cannon-arm, but it seemed to be getting better as time passed. Then again, the knight it faced was also moving slower, as he wasn't leaping through the air on the back of a lizard now. Being careful to stay out of range of its scythe-arm was easy enough, and soon enough the monster took to puking around itself, hoping to slow the advance of its enemy.

Unfortunately for the beast, that meant that as it tried to advance, it got itself stuck in cooling gold. Having no legs to speak of, the entire bottom of the thing was forced to try and wade through the muck of boiling gold, bogging it down further. After some trying, the warrior found the hell-spawned creature more stuck than he had hoped for, and another wild leap through the air was called for. This time, though, when his steed launched them out into space, it was with blistering speed, just above the ground. They cleared the room in an instant, coming to rest against the far wall, before being forced to duck a volley of gold spikes. One of them sheared into the goat-man's intact horn, but did little besides sear the thing, as the gold was too hot to chop through much of anything, save perhaps people.

The results of the charge were now clear, however, as the lizard turned the pair about to witness the strike that the knight had landed on the beast they fought. His sword had sliced neatly through the daemon, cutting from under its scythe-arm, up clear through to its shoulder. Gold spurted viciously from the gaping hole, and the abomination spun, struggling to heal itself from the grievous injury. The daemon slayer and his steed took advantage of this opportunity, and as the monstrosity struggled with its mortality, the cavalier flew through the air once more, this time his sword hacked clean through its cannon-arm, the limb falling heavily to the ground as molten gold continued to spurt from the beast. It flailed about now, barely in control of itself. It was here that the satyr noticed his lance where it had fallen originally, intact and waiting. He tossed his sword to his off-hand, sheathing it as he leaned down from his seat to scoop up the spear. Then he decided it was time for one last charge. The greed daemon wheeled to face his enemy, shrieking as if it sensed an imminent end to its existence. The cavalier gritted his teeth as he felt his lizard's hindquarters bunch, and then they were flying once more. The force of their launch was bone-shaking once again, but the goat-man had been prepared, and his lance struck true. The cold-iron tip was shoved down the daemon's throat, and it ripped right through the other side of the thing, the lance itself shattering even as it tore a massive hole in the beast. The shriek grew louder, and molten gold seemed to burst from the abomination like it was a water balloon, suddenly burst. However, even as the thing was banished back to the Hell from which it was ripped, its death caused all the gold and gems in the room to turn from such perfectly valuable commodities, to nothing but liquid manure of the most rank variety one might ever find.

The explosion of gold transformed into a wave of lumpy, liquefied shit in an instant, and the knight and his steed were quite horrified to find themselves coated in the stuff as they crashed to a halt. The warrior was thankful they had been facing away from the stuff, but that didn't stop the air turning a venomous blue around him as he swore as vehemently as any man ever could. He urged his steed out of the chapel with all the haste the beast could muster, and the lizard dashed the two of them around behind the building, hoping to find anything that might relieve them of being so coated in such vile stuff. They were lucky enough to find what looked to be a very large pond, and the lizard hissed its displeasure, as its rider set to stripping it of all the gear it normally wore. That stuff would all need to be washed separately. For the moment, he focused on getting the two of them clean, though, so as his companion rushed the water, eager to no longer be coated in daemonic faeces, the knight had to strip off everything he was wearing before he could join the reptile. He decided he would write off the rest of the day, and think about getting things done the next day. Investing in a crossbow seemed like the first thing that should be on his list, and he placed it there. If he could help it, he would never fight another greed daemon in his life. The gods likely wouldn't allow that, though, so he at least wanted the option of not dealing with it at such close range...</div>"

He paused for a moment, looking around the area around him and Crystal, halberd at the ready. There was a feeling... A bad feeling. Crystal popped out of her shelter and looked at Aruk.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">""Why are we stopping?""</font></span> She asked in bewilderment. Aruk stepped back slightly, looking through the trees at something, his left foot poised behind him in a stance as he lowered slightly.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#800000"">""Hide, little one...""</font></span> Aruk whispered, his eyes focused on the new enemy in order to hide the fear he felt inside. <br/><br/>Crystal pouted when suddenly a blood-chilling roar surged through the trees. Crystal quickly dived under the pauldron and held onto the interior. Aruk's eyes widened slightly and he dashed to the side as a monstrosity shot through the trees. The thing cared not for any branches or even oak trees that were in its way, and its sharp blades by the dozen sheared through wood and bark. Aruk slid across the forest floor slightly and made a swift turn, establishing his stance again and looking down his enemy. His inner fear was justified as he realized what he was up against.<br/><br/>As the monstrosity's bulk heaved with breath and inhuman life, many sharp objects were spread out all over its body. It looked as though Hell had forcefully mated a porcupine with... Something unholy that favoured blades for appendages. Even the hands and feet were just a set of knife-claws for each. Aruk could clearly see that nothing was safe from even a touch from this monster's blades, as the ground and undergrowth was torn up whilst the creature moved. Crystal peeked slightly, then shrank back in fear.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">""R-Run... Aruk...""</font></span> She shuddered. Aruk glanced at her briefly, then back at the monster.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#800000"">""What, little one..?""</font></span> He asked uncertainly. As he stared the monster returned his gaze with a harsh and piercing snarl, and Crystal squealed.<br/><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">""It's a wrath abomination-- RUN ARUK!""</font></span> She screamed in a high pitched voice. Aruk heeded her warning right at the moment the abomination roared once more and began pursue him. Aruk dodged back and forth through the trees, fearing for his life for the first time in a long while. The abomination relentlessly tried to catch the Argonian, tearing down trees that got in the way of its apparently direct path towards its next victim. </div>"

He took half an hour to himself to wash properly, and sent his steed out to go do its thing once he had declared the lizard clean. From there it was just a matter of cleaning out his gear. He started with his mount's harnessing and such, figuring it would be smart to be able to ride around, if necessary. He wasn't terribly worried about that, though, so he took his time once more. Thankfully, leather didn't soak up disgusting things very well, and it wasn't long before all of his steed's gear was cleaned and nicely oiled.<br/><br/>Then he started on his own things. Unfortunately, he had been going far too slowly. He got his sword and knives clean before he was interrupted. But the cavalier wasn't sure it was going to be enough, considering what was going on. Just down the hill, off the road, was a forest of sorts. But a swath was being mowed through the trees like they were weeds, and not massive evergreens. Suddenly he saw a figure dashing from the trees, and apparently heading straight for him. The commotion was what had gotten his attention, though. The way the trees were being hewn to matchsticks was deafening, even at this distance, and the noise was getting louder. It wasn't long before he realized why. A rage daemon, or something like it, was headed right for him. Or rather, it was running down the poor bastard who had bothered it. The thing was massive, half again as tall as any man, with blades protruding from its back like spines, a veritable forest of edges sprouting along its spine. Its joints were all guarded by more bladed spines, and it seemed to possess a collection of flexible razors, rather than fingers or toes. Even its mouth was filled with daggers, instead of teeth. The goat-man was surprised the beast did not literally stare daggers at its prey, but prepared to fight it all the same.<br/><br/>He held onto his sabre, and selected his bowie knife to accompany it. A monster like this was going to take some slaying. With no lance, and no lizard, it would be a feat. But he'd just completed two thirds of a hattrick, he saw no reason why he couldn't finish the job. Still completely devoid of clothing, with the reason females seemed to so adore his kind swinging freely in the wind, the satyr used the strengths his kin had given him, and he hopped nimbly onto a pile of ruined stone that had once been a wall around the pond. It was probably as tall as he was, give or take, so he felt he might have some advantage at this height. Beasts as large as this probably knew nothing of fighting those taller than it. The knight was entirely unprepared, and the fresh adrenaline pumping through his system had him ready to puke up his lunch. He was pretty sure he had already done that, however, so he fought back the urge, and prepared to do battle. The monster and its prey were approaching more rapidly now, despite the slope, and he sank into a crouch atop the mound of rock. He thought he would try for a leaping strike on the beast. If his blades could hurt the thing, he supposed it would be enough. Rage daemons knew no pain, but he had done his research, and women were the only creatures capable of bleeding for their entire lives, and not dying. With that in mind, he figured he could win this fight if he played the long game. No one could win the short game against something like this.<br/><br/>Determination, and what lifetime he could remember dedicated to slaying creatures such as this strengthened the cavalier as he leapt. He let out no battle cry, indeed, he made no sound at all, simply lifted into the air as the poor unfortunate soul that his quarry was preying upon drew the beast close enough. The rage monster was so focused on its prey, that it didn't even notice the blade slice into its flesh as the goat-man passed over its head. It barely registered that it was bleeding profusely from a wound carved so expertly between the blades on its back. What it did register, though, was the sound of two hoofs crashing into the ground, and it seemed to know that such a noise was only made by prey. It wheeled on the daemon slayer, but the satyr showed no fear. He gnashed his fangs and twirled his sword eagerly, wondering how hurt this thing would have to get before it would die.<br/><br/>In another instant, the daemon launched itself at its new opponent, but the warrior was already leaping away, bounding like the mountain goat that was part of him. He didn't stop there, though. He continued to hop, with violence in mind. He dodged behind his enemy, sweeping below its back-full of blades and slicing at its legs, hacking pieces off of it like the monster was some kind of bloody perversion of a living cake. This thing was certainly not safe to eat, however...</div>"

It shouldn't be, but it was. Earlier that morning, Aruk thought the worst enemy he would have to face off against was at the most a few genocidal elves, but apparently the All-Father thought otherwise. <br/><br/>Then again, Aruk wasn't facing the abomination. He was narrowly flicking his tail back and forth to avoid hell's claws at his backside, sweat breaking all over as one foot after the other landed upon forest ground. He could feel the wind shriek at his spines as the sharp blades raked at the air. <br/><br/>Crystal was holding on inside Aruk's pauldron, whimpering and crying every few moments that the abomination snarled after its prey. Aruk just kept running, not even aware anymore of where he was headed. He just knew he could not stop, even though his lungs and gut begged him to rest. He forced himself to run so far and so fast, he was going to die running rather than die stopping. <br/><br/>But if nothing else, he would rather die fighting.<br/><br/>Aruk was ready to give up on running, his mind set on turning right round and charging to his death, when a shadow lunged through the sky. Or rather it was the blur of a dark figure. Either way, Aruk was ready to turn and fight, and he slid slightly to a stop ready to duck the next blade to come at him. But it never did. Aruk watched with a mix of uncertainty and awe, as the abomination turned away from him and faced another opponent. <br/><br/>Aruk saw the long bleeding cut along the back of the monster, and on the other side of its angered heaving mass, was a--<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Is he naked?""</span></font> Crystal wondered aloud in confusion. Aruk shrugged, trying not to pay any attention to that fact than he did to being grateful to the All-Father. <br/><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Now... We fight.""</span></font> Aruk commented. But Crystal noticed how short of breath he was.<br/><font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">""No, Aruk!""</span></font> She ordered in her cute little voice. Aruk glanced at her. <font color=""#39b54a""><span class=""bb-b"">""Take a break! I think the strange naked goat person can kill it.""</span></font> She commented, moving to sit down on his shoulder and relax. <br/><br/>Aruk slowly relaxed his stance, holding his halberd up and stepping out to the side. He did not say anything, since he knew Crystal was right about his lack of energy at the moment. However, he did not feel at all at ease letting the nude stranger take on the monster on his own, if it was really that bad that he had to run from it. He clenched his grip around his halberd slightly, watching the stranger do battle. </div>"

The daemon would rush him, and as he leapt out of the way, the warrior sought to poke at the monstrosity, inflicting wounds that would bleed and weaken his enemy. Then, after some manoeuvring and little success, the satyr realized what had to be done. The same pile of rubble he'd started this fight on, would end it. He let his enemy rush him a few more times, dodging more carefully now, until he was lined up. The daemon paid his scheming no heed, however, and continued trying to bury its blades in the increasingly infuriating cavalier. It continued to be met with little success, however. And its next charge would prove more momentous than the others.<br/><br/>This time, the knight has his back to the ruined wall. So when the daemon began its charge once more, he hopped atop it, and then behind it, while his opponent simply rushed the mound of rock, crashing into it with more force than the goat-man had anticipated. His ruminant reflexes saved him, however, and he escaped with only a bruised shin as the whole rock wall came tumbling down before the wrath of the daemon he faced. The beast flailed its bladed limbs as it collapsed with the rubble, but to no avail. Even as it struggled to rise, the daemon slayer was striking with all the fury of a thousand divine suns. He thrust his shashka through the thing's unbladed throat, and tore downward, slicing open its most vital arteries, to let it bleed out. He then realized that daemons probably didn't rely on arteries, and followed that with an upward stroke that severed the head of his enemy. Daemonic blood spurted violently, boiling as it sprayed into the air. Even in death the thing was angry. So mad, was it, in fact, that the thing was still struggling to rise.<br/><br/>The satyr acted quickly, bounding around the abomination's razor-coated limbs, and slicing away at its unprotected underarms, removing any physical ability to control the limbs by hacking the flesh free of the bones. His assault was vicious, and he didn't stop at the head and two limbs. He figured he might as well go all the way, and he soaked the once-holy ground in boiling, corrupted vitality. Where the stuff soaked into the ground, the grass would only ever grow red, but the cavalier was unconcerned with that. He was more concerned with making sure his enemy was dead. He stabbed the limbless torso a few times for good measure, burying his blade to the hilt in the evil flesh.<br/><br/>""Not even dry and I've got to wash again..."" he observed with a grimace as he took a step back to check on his handiwork. ""I suppose it could be worse..."" he added with a shrug. Then he looked around, wondering if his steed had just decided not to join in this fight, or if the lizard was truly occupied. If it didn't come back with something for him to eat, he decided they were going to share strong words. Then, having no time to deal with strangers who would run from a fight whilst armed, and then refuse to rally to the aid of an actual warrior, he returned to the pool to cleanse himself once more. Rinsing fresh blood from him took only a moment, though, and soon he was back to where he'd left off, cleaning his equipment, and then oiling what needed it. He figured he would be done by mid-afternoon, and spend the last of the light getting away from this place. He would make camp somewhere a little less prone to daemonic attacks...</div>"

He needn't say anything else. <br/><br/>Breaking away from the standard convention of calling her ""Little one"" was enough. Crystal hurumphed childishly and hid back inside the pauldron of solitude. Aruk was no happier than her, but only because he knew he didn't even deserve to give his thanks to the warrior for the salvation. Aruk instead turned his thoughts to finding their baggage, and without Crystal's help. The little lady had the grudge of a crow. </div>"

His fur was a little more ragged than it had been before the fight, thanks to his opponent's daemonically sharp limbs. He'd also sustained a few minor cuts, little more than scrapes really. It was more than enough to be painful, though, and he had to work through the discomfort if he wanted to get anything done. He used the pain as a mechanism of focus, and with that, he increased his motivation. The cleaning went faster, but only a little bit. His lizard returned at some point shortly after the point at which the goat-man would have liked to eat lunch, and the beast brought with it the carcass of a deer. He hopped out of the pool at the sight of it, and quickly got into a stare-down with his steed. The beast was reluctant to share its meal, but eventually with the knowledge that its rider wouldn't short-change it terribly, versus the concept of losing a meal entirely, it backed down. <br/><br/>The satyr happily helped himself to a hearty chunk of still-warm venison as his lunch, devouring it raw, much like his mount. Both the reptile and its master were soon sated, and while the beast went for a short stroll about their surroundings, the cavalier returned to work. He finished slightly ahead of his projected schedule, and finally managed to get dressed. Donning his armour once more was a comforting feeling like no other, and the smell of oil hung thickly around him, another delightful odour he had missed. He got himself put back together, and finally looked like the Knight of Cold Iron he was supposed to be, and not just another psychotic goat-man from the mountains who had come here seeking blood and death. Apparently it was a half-way common occurrence in some places, to have beastmen show up and murder people for fun. He supposed a band of adventurers or angry townsfolk might show up at some point, then, but he supposed he would just have to be prepared to show off his skills, if that were the case. <br/><br/>It used to be, apparently, that daemons would have heads that were good for carrying around after they were slain. He'd yet to find such a thing, and longed for a similar trophy. Something he could hold aloft proudly, rallying his companions. Of course, he didn't have any companions either, so the point was moot. Still, something like a gorgon's head that he could flash around would be nice. He was pretty sure those didn't exist, or were extinct though. Then again, so many things that many claimed were only faerie tales had already died by his hand, so there was hope yet, he supposed.<br/><br/>Finally, the warrior managed to collect himself as he finished strapping his pack down to his lizard's back. While the beast shook violently and settled their cargo, he began planning the retrieval of his lance. It was going to be unpleasant, he decided, but entirely necessary. If he didn't get those cold-iron fittings, he'd be missing out on his greatest weapon. Such a thing was unacceptable, so he sighed, then took a deep breath of fresh air, and strode back into the cesspit that had once been a holy place. He strode back out again a moment later, trailing behind him everything he needed. He had no desire to even think about what had gone on in that place, and he cleansed himself of it once more in the swiftest manner he could find. The rest was easy. He stripped the cold iron from the broken lance, and now he just needed to cut a new one. A look to the sky told him he wouldn't get far if he wasted time making a lance today, however, and he groaned. ""I suppose it's time to go."" he told his steed, glancing about to see if the man with the halberd was still around...</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">They swept through in a rush of steel and red, the army of the Empire. The fierce flag of the Dragonblood Imperium blocked the rising sun on the horizon that served to cast an indomitable shadow across the surging battalions. If fear had form, it was the sight of a relentless legion bound by blood oath to serve an Emperor of the likes the world had never seen before.

If each and every Eldar soldier still believed their own power was that of twenty Humes, they were outmatched. The unity and willingness of the Empire's men brought together an innumerable army of soldiers ready to die for their Emperor. Even more frightening to the Elves was the flawlessness of his victories that the Emperor took, reclaiming his homeland in so brief a time. 

His name was Tiberius Azklan, crowned Emperor of the Dragonblood Imperium at only the age of 19.

Tiberius' war began the moment he re-planted the banner of the Empire in the centre of Tirome. The magnitude of his first victory and the cries of his meager force of brave Imperials echoed throughout the province, and soon the continent. The Eldar Dominion stirred like a beast realizing the true danger of its prey. 

By then the Dominion forces were stretched too thin, in the North and across South Euraiya, and were incapable of quickly addressing the new threat. Tiberius and his followers did not rest, taking full advantage of the Elves' complacency they had adopted since occupying parts of Ceyledon. One by one after Tirome, the people of the Imperial cities rebelled against their Elven captors the moment Tiberius' legion arrived. Within only a week, the Dominion was driven out of Ceyledon. Celebrations were had, but soon it was back to work with the smithies and fletchers, the stablemasters and spymasters. The Imperial armies had to be well-prepared for the storm to come.

Once the Dominion recognized Tiberius as a threat, the real war truly began. 

Only a fortnight upon the liberation of Ceyledon, it was time for the Imperials to march forth. The Elves had long occupied the neighboring wild forests of Grimmvale in order to stop Imperial allies from Valorfell and Wesirinfell marching northwards to aid the kingdom of Wesirinfell. However, for Tiberius, that Elven occupation that poisoned his homeland ends now.

It is the 48th Year of the 2nd Era, and it is now that the Imperial Legion of Tiberius marches west to carve a bloody swath through the Dominion forces in Grimmvale. 

It is from this moment that an Emperor reclaims his Empire.</span></div>

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Rules:</span></span></span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((1))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Be Your Character</span></span>
Philosophical bullcrap aside, step into your character's shoes and seriously see the world as they do. If your character is a beggar and you think nobles are scum, then act like it if another person's character is a noble! If your character is scared of fighting, run away from any battle!

(Yes, your characters can hate each other, because we're all friends OOC, right? This is recommended if personalities clash, otherwise I'll whip you for Rule 2.)

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((2))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Be logical.</span></span>
Not much explanation needed here. Think from your character's perspective and the age they are in. They might get lost in the woods if they go off the road. They might run into a pack of wolves on the way back. These wolves could possibly kill your character if you're not careful. 

If death is a near certainty, don't overpower the situation just to stay alive. 

Death earns bonus points if you do it with style.

(If I am being illogical, call it out! I'm no exception to this rule either)
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((3))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">No Godmodding.</span></span>
NPCs belong to me. Mooks belong to Everyone. Characters belong to Individual Players. Don't touch what isn't yours or influence them on your own accord. 

(I'm an exemption to this rule WHEN people become inactive and stop up the storyline. See Rule 5.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((4))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Proper Spelling and Grammar.</span></span>
To an extent where your posts are most definitely comprehensible/understandable.

(You can tpyo as mchu as this)

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((5))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Lords of Time Management</span></span>
Keep posting, posting, posting, posting whenever you're up! Even if it's OOC! Let us know when you're available or if you are going to be absent for a while!

(If you are inactive for a while, intended or not, I'll PuppetPlay your characters until you let me know you're ready to continue or, if needed, leave.)

<span class=""bb-b"">BONUS RULE!</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">((!$!))</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Have Fun!!!</span></span>
And I will penalize you if you don't follow this one! 

(I think.)

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Dorak
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Dorakis
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Darsi stands at six feet, two inches, just like his brother. His scales and underbelly are both of a brown ochre hue, also just like his brother. His three-fingered hands and three-toed feet have had their digging claws shaved down for ease of movement, again, just like his brother. That, however, is where the similarities end. Darsi has allowed his leathery dreadlocks to grow out, reaching down to his back in length. He’s also got a few much smaller ones adorning his chin. His scales are in a generally better condition than his Dosi’s, being that he has never roughed it out in the wilderness of Dorakis like he has. He has a bit of gunk encrusted in his eyes and nostrils, which always shows up again a few days later after he’s breathed in some more incenses. He’s definitely not as fit as his brother, having a bit of a beer gut, but nothing too plump.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Darsi wears a light brown fabric vest that leaves his torso exposed, and a pair of trousers made of a similar, alebit darker fabric, held up with an improperly fastened leather belt. All of these items are not in their prime conditions, but they aren’t coming undone at the seams, so that’s good enough for him. He doesn’t possess any footwear, just like Dosi. Unlike Dosi, however, he has quite a few pieces of jewelry on at all times – bands, rings, necklaces, all the sort.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Of the Ruuk brothers, Darsi exemplifies the more carefree, curious, and experimenting nature of the Dorak. He’s always one to try new things, and he most often enjoys them greatly. He possesses a distinct admiration for the cultural activities and traditions of other races, most often the ones that involve celebration and/or some kind of substance intake. Never one to turn down and opportunity to meet new folks and have a good time with them, often insisting they try his concoctions for the sake of fun.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Darsi enjoys collecting insectoids, plant life, and other materials wherever he and Dosi travel, in order to discover their effects as ingredients in his experiments. He’s also been practicing with a pair of drums made from a foreign leather, discovering new rhythms every now and again.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Darsi is a brewer, an herbalist, a bomb maker, and a musician (somewhat). He loves nothing more than to bring a sense of joy and cheer to those around him, be that in the form of offering them his concocted beverages, herbal incenses, a song or two, and even a hand in battle. Darsi takes great pride in compiling list upon list of recipes for new drinks, drugs and bombs, often including foreign materials in his latest experiments, as well as trying new rhythms with his drums to soothe and mystify both friends and passersby alike. He’s adept at examining materials and discerning what they are comprised of and what effect they might have if eaten raw or mixed with something else, a skill on par with most alchemists (though he couldn’t tell you anything about a magic-infused material).
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Darsi and Dosi Ruuk were both born twenty-one years ago to the lead family of the Ruuk Patriarchy. Before them came an eldest brother and an older sister, and afterwards came two more sisters, and finally, one last younger brother. Thus, it was a sizeable family, as was common with the Dorak. From the moment the two were born less than a minute apart (the family forgot who came first), they were nigh inseparable. Always playing together, always doing chores in tandem, everything. The only hint of a division came between their interests. Dosi grew up admiring the stories his father Damatas told of hunts and excursions and taming monstrous creatures all across the vastness of Dorakis, always aiming to follow in a similar line of service to the Patriarchy. Darsi, on the other hand, was much more enamored by the cultural liveliness of his people, aspiring to become a brewer and herbalist like his mother Carmessi. During the boys’ early years, they each took up their desired fields of skillsets from one of their parents, Dosi training daily with his father, and Darsi with his mother. Time went on, and the two quickly displayed their talents for their respective works.

Fast forward some years. By the time the twins were in their teens, their parents had begun slowing down their training them and focusing more on the Patriarchy, which they were disheartened by. The Ruuk Patriarchy had been dwindling in numbers and resources at that point in time, and needed to focus on stockpiling resources. Darsi had learned how to brew quite a few drinks and incenses, and even helped domesticate a newly hatched Gimian Skora – a twin-tailed scorpion - for the Patriarchy to use as a service creature, which Dosi had helped his older brother and father to recover from a nest. They named her Karkada, after not much thought. While the twins understood their parents’ relocation of attention, they still wanted to perfect their skills. Thus, they asked to spend some time with their aunt Goka, who lived topside as an Omnik (a Dorak who has chosen not to serve a Patriarchy) atop a Varaka Bertis, along with many other experienced masters of Dorak traditions and practices. While it took some convincing and pleading, and a promise to visit every once in a while, the twins eventually got their wish. They next morning they bid the Patriarchy and Karkada farewell, and met with their aunt a short walk away.

The next seven years in the twins’ lives were spent riding atop a Varaka Bertis, living with Goka. She was firm friends with some very stories individuals – hunters, brewers, crafters, herbalists, bomb makers, so on and so forth. She’d gotten them to agree to train the boys to the best of their abilities. Some were happy to pass on their knowledge and techniques, while others were a little lazy about the whole ordeal. Whatever the case, Darsi and Dosi both began training under masters that same day. Darsi took up a job as a brewer’s assistant, serving the lively community atop the Varaka Bertis with new recipes for drinks and dishes he learned, all the while practicing his other skills when he was free. Dosi joined up with a hunting group who tracked down and cleared out troublesome nests and hives, and brought back the spoils for their fellow Dorak to enjoy, learning as well to craft his own material goods like weapons and armor. The twins worked well together – Dosi went out to kill insects and gather plants and brought them back to Darsi, who used most of the resources to make food, drinks and incenses, and the unusable materials he gave back to his brother to craft into goods. The two were quickly becoming masters themselves, impressive for two Dorak at such a young age. They visited their Patriarchy frequently, bringing with them plentiful resources to help them in their trying times, for which they were grateful. But there was always an underlying sense of wanderlust between the two that made them want to see what lied beyond Dorakis. They talked and dreamed of it, but that’s all they ever did. Talk and dream. Beyond their wondering, they continued with their work. It was a productive life that the twins cherished. The good times, however, eventually came to an end.

A tragedy fell upon the Ruuk Patriarchy one night when Damatas and Maliko were leading a burrowing expansion to make for more storage room. They unknowingly burrowed right into a dormant nest of Araki Dimos – Devil Spiders. The group was unprepared to face the creatures, and thus, lost several members. Among the victims, to the horror and sadness of Damatas and the rest of the Patriarchy, was Maliko, who was slated to inherit the role of Patriarch upon the former’s passing. The day after this event, Damatas sent for Darsi and Dosi to return home immediately, and of course, they did. After a brief period of mourning, Damatas explained to the twins that, with Maliko gone, one of them had to take his place as heir to the Patriarchy. And they had to decide who. The issue was, however, that <span class=""bb-i"">neither</span> of them wished to take over upon their father’s passing, whenever that may be. They’d grown far too accustomed to their lives topside, and had even been considering assuming Omnik status. As expected, their father was both disheartened and angered by this, reminding them that their youngest brother Koba was far too young to assume the role himself. Everything got more and more heated from that point onward. The argument eventually ended on a poor note, and Damatas resigned for the night, postponing the issue. The twins stuck around in their old den and talked the whole situation over. And after quite some thought, they decided on a course of action.

The next morning, the twins were gone. They’d left a note explaining how neither of them wanted to be forced into the role of Patriarch, and how that they had officially declared themselves Omnik. They went further than that, however. After leaving with Karkada in tow – now fully grown and fitted with a small hut on her shell – they returned to Goka and explained the problem to her. She told them that Damatas would most likely have the Patriarchy come and drag them back home. Thus, she presented them with a solution – leave Dorakis. Travel around Tithe for a bit. Think things over, come back when Damatas had mellowed some. Goka said if he came around, she’d do her best to keep him from finding out where they’d gone. She herself had traveled the land some in her youth, and it was an experience she couldn’t recommend on any higher degree. In the end, the twins agreed to follow up on her suggestion with a bit of an added goal. They suddenly aspired to become merchants. Make a bit of a living outside instead of just sightseeing. They took all of their belongings and resources, stocked them up atop Karkada, hugged Goka goodbye, and set out for the borders of Dorakis.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Carmessi Ruuk, 43 (mother)</li><li>Damatas Ruuk, 46 (father)</li><li>Dosi Ruuk, 21 (twin brother)</li><li>Goka, 45 (aunt)</li><li>Koba Ruuk, 14 (youngest brother)</li><li>Lakshmi Ruuk, 25 (older sister)</li><li>Maliko Ruuk, 26 (eldest brother, deceased)</li><li>Sangessa Ruuk, 17 (younger sister)</li><li>Tava Ruuk, 15 (youngest sister)</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">| Dosi Ruuk | Great | Twin Brother |</span> “Me blood, man. Me blood. Dosi an’ I be bonded since births. Maybe we ain’t got the same likings and doings, but together? We’s everything we need to be. Wouldn’t change that evah.” 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Darsi keeps a stockpile of homebrewed explosives aboard Karkada. Molotov cocktails, smoke grenades, caltrops, gases, all the sort and beyond, all kinds of volatile concoctions and deterrents, all labeled and expertly crafted.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> As far as physical, combat-employable abilities go, Darsi is experienced in only one regard – throwing stuff. Beyond that, he can’t do much else for you but get your mind clear and your stomach full with a meal and a smoke before battle.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Like all Dorak, Darsi’s four eyes are completely useless in dark or unlit areas, and even out in the daylight, his vision is at most times unreliable, meaning he has to rely on his senses. Therein lies the issue with his constant drink and herbal intake – his senses are usually clogged by gunk and fluid, encrusted in his nostrils and eye sockets, which he has to clean regularly. Darsi is in no way experienced with live combat and is thus rubbish in a fight without his stockpile of bombs, and Dosi and Karkada by his side.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Darsi and Dosi both ride atop a Gimian Skora – a gigantic, female, twin-tailed scorpion – named Karkada. Armored in a sturdy black shell with white fur packed between the crevices, Karkada is an imposing creature to behold. The twins raised her since she was a hatchling and, with the use of expertly crafted pacifying incenses, managed to tame her and turn her into a loyal companion. Thanks to Karkada’s sheer size and strength, she can carry the weight equivalent of a small, one-room hut atop her shell – which, incidentally, she does. Darsi and Dosi use her as a pack mule, a mobile home, and bodyguard when they are traveling through dangerous areas. Karkada, unfortunately, had her stingers removed when she was young, a precaution taken in case she ever attacked the family. Her venom glands still remain however, which Darsi uses in some of his concoctions, and Dosi coats his spears with the lethal substance.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Darsi’s inventory stock includes custom-brewed drinks, on-the-spot food dishes, incenses that provide varying beneficial (and sometimes negative) effects, the ingredients to craft either (which may entice some alchemists), homemade throwing bombs, and maybe even songs if he’s feeling up to it.

Also he has no idea who the hell Polaris is. Or any of the Red Legion, for that matter.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 21
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Dorak
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Dorakis

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Dosi stands at six feet, two inches, just like his brother. His scales and underbelly are both of a brown ochre hue, also just like his brother. His three-fingered hands and three-toed feet have had their digging claws clipped for ease of movement, again, just like his brother. And that’s where the similarities end between the two. Dosi has kept his dreadlocks and chin hair trimmed clean. His face, however, has collected a scant few scars from his hunting days in Dorakis, all of which he doesn’t have much of a problem displaying. In fact, most of his entire exterior body has been weathered down from traveling in the hostile desert.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Dosi adorns himself in the hand-crafted hunting gear he wore during his earlier life in Dorakis. It’s comprised of a hooded, tanned leather tunic and trousers, strapped with several pieces of armor made from the shells of assorted “small” insects native to Dorakis, some of which possess the trademark white hair packed between the cracks and crevices, a common motif among the wildlife there. Several belts and pouches are strapped along the outfit to give Dosi a good level of storage space when he’s on his lonesome.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Unlike Darsi, Dosi is more focused on the matters at hand rather than any curiosities or wonders of what could be. A reliable sort, he shows determination and a desire to excel in just about anything he does, and he is not unfamiliar with taking charge of situations. But he works best with his brother, that’s a given, and he will always do his best to fulfill a goal he’s set out for himself or for anyone else.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> In his spare time, Dosi often looks for materials and goods to use in his crafts, carving quality wood and stone into spears, staves, and bows. Every now and again you can find him practicing his embroidering with a knife and improving his attention to detail.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Dosi is much more combat experienced than Darsi. He’s been trained to fight with several different types of weaponry, including battle staves, javelins, and bows. He’s definitely more capable in hunting down creatures than any humanoid enemies, though. That’s not to say he wouldn’t be able to hold his own in such a circumstance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Darsi and Dosi Ruuk were both born twenty-one years ago to the lead family of the Ruuk Patriarchy. Before them came an eldest brother and an older sister, and afterwards came two more sisters, and finally, one last younger brother. Thus, it was a sizeable family, as was common with the Dorak.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">| Darsi Ruuk | Great | Twin Brother |</span> “Everything Darsi and I are, we owe to each other. I know I wouldn’t be who I am without him. And whatever happens to us out there… I hope we can both benefit from it for when we go back home. And we have to go back <span class=""bb-i"">eventually</span>.”

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> Dosi carries a reinforced battle staff with him at all times. Made from the densest wood to be found in Dorakis (which isn’t saying much, seeing as there’s only so few kinds of trees there that grow in hard-to-reach spots, but it’s still sturdy enough to be usable today), and strung about with spider silk bands and sharp ornaments taken from the spoils of past hunts. He also carries with him a small bundle of compact throwing spears (maximum of five in a quiver), all affixed with thorns from some other dangerous creature back in Dorakis, which he also coats with Karkada’s extracted venom to give them a bit more lethality.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Dosi is much more capable in combat than his brother. Swift, agile, quick to respond, Dosi is vastly experienced with fighting in both enclosed spaces and open areas. However, his experience falls primarily on hunting large, hostile creatures, and not individual soldiers (especially soldiers with guns). However, Dosi is nothing but adaptable, and he has sparred with other Dorak in the past for fun, so he’s confident in his ability to handle such situations if they ever arise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Dosi’s vision is much the same as Darsi’s, and every other Dorak for that matter. Save for, however, that his senses aren’t clogged by the residue of copious incenses (he doesn’t partake in them as much as his brother does). Dosi is intent on becoming a merchant, but seeing as he has no idea how outside trade values work, he might be easily scammed the first few times until he learns how much his stock is really worth.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Darsi and Dosi both ride atop a Gimian Skora – a gigantic, female, twin-tailed scorpion – named Karkada. Armored in a sturdy black shell with white fur packed between the crevices, Karkada is an imposing creature to behold. The twins raised her since she was a hatchling and, with the use of expertly crafted pacifying incenses, managed to tame her and turn her into a loyal companion. Thanks to Karkada’s sheer size and strength, she can carry the weight equivalent of a small, one-room hut atop her shell – which, incidentally, she does. Darsi and Dosi use her as a pack mule, a mobile home, and bodyguard when they are traveling through dangerous areas. Karkada, unfortunately, had her stingers removed when she was young, a precaution taken in case she ever attacked the family. Her venom glands still remain however, which Darsi uses in some of his concoctions, and Dosi coats his spears with the lethal substance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Dosi sells more practical items than Darsi, including Doraki weapons such as battle staves, throwing spears, bows, and arrows. Along with them, he sells plates and guards made from the bodily remains of insects from Dorakis, all in well-kept condition. The rest of his stock is miscellaneous wares and crafts, none of which would really interest a wayward mercenary or someone of the like.

And he, too, has no idea who the <span class=""bb-i"">hell</span> Polaris or the Red Legion are.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Lord of Owls
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> ???
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> ???
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> ???
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> ???

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> We know not its true face. It hides it all too well.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> The demon hides its visage behind a mask made to depict a sinister owl, with darkened feathers, a jagged beak, and wide, blank eyes. It is dressed in a mismatch of ornate robes and cloaks, all of unknown make and manufacture.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> A vile thing. Wants naught to act but for its own desires. No one knows its truest intentions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> It is a collector. Keeper. Knowledge seeker. It strives to uncover the most well kept secrets of the Red Legion. By abducting their soldiers. Working its way to their Generals.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> The Lord of Owls is as it is named to be – silent and unseen. It hunts the Red Legion in the night and burrows its way into their minds with archaic needles and contraptions. It knows well the bodies of Tithe, as if it has picked and plucked its way through all of them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> The siege. The subjugation. The abduction. The Red Legion knows full well their crimes. Following far behind them, a horrid shadow that recalls their actions. Months prior, it began its work. Stalking patrols and encampments in the dead of night. Forcing his image into the nightmares of the slumbering. Breaking down the incorporeal walls. The Generals play it off as ghost story. Someone playing a game. But they know they have lost men to this demon. A scant few have returned, shaken and horrified, unfit for further duty. They say it has a goal. They say it wants to tear asunder the Red Legion from the inside out. They are told to never speak of it again. But amidst the ranks, the rumors persist.

They saw its mask and named it the Lord of Owls.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> ???

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Who would dare associate themselves with this creature?

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Needles. Archaic contraptions. Horrifying devices built solely for the torment and suffering of others. All of which play as mere pathways for its illusions to convey.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> It may wield its nightmarish devices, but it possesses a greater power – that which stems from the fear of those who face the demon. Illusions, conjurations, lies and whispers, it utilizes all of these terrible things to break down the psyche of its prey. And when they are most vulnerable, it takes them away. And it deprives them of their secrets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> A soldier claimed he saw the Lord of Owls once, during a patrol. It stalked him and his compatriots in the night. Two were stolen away. But the remaining soldier fended off the demon with naught but a torch. The next light, there was no trace of its being there. But the two soldiers were still missing. The rest are somewhat at ease knowing it cannot, or will not, hunt in the day.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> The demon hunts alone. Much to the fortune of many a Red Legion soldier.

Age: 32
Gender: Male
Species: Minotaur
Kingdom of Origin: Wilderness.
 
Physical appearance:
 
Calder, unsurprisingly, is a big hoss. Standing at around 8’4, he’s certainly not lacking in the size department. He weighs an even 700 lbs and has been known to consume wildebeest for midnight snacks.
 
Calder, like most of his kind, is extremely muscular. His fur is a dark black while his skin is white (albeit deeply, deeply tanned-Calder has never worn a shirt a day in his life, and could be mistaken for a Navajo or Latin American based off his skin tone. Barring, ya know, the bull’s head.), with a litany of faded scars all over his chest. He does not have the “ripped” build of most male celebrities-instead, he has the quiet, bulked strength, muscles pushing out a thin layer of fat over his arms and chest. He eats too heartily to be ripped, but is by no means out of shape-Calder’s among the strongest of his species, and is capable of great physical abilities. Calder’s horns are set wide and darken as they reach their tips-a feature many a lady minotaur has praised him for. Calder’s eyes are dark, and he has rather lovely long eyelashes. Calder’s teeth are about as nice as you’d expect, and around his neck he often wears a bone necklace. Calder’s hands are big, easily larger than any humans, and his fingernails are chipped and his fingers pretty callused. Thick dark hair covers his forearms and chest. Calder walks slowly, with his head slightly hunched. One might occasionally find a songbird perched on his horns or shoulder, or the occasional flowers littering his fur. His legs are thick-you couldn’t hope to connect your hands around them-and powerful, considerably stronger than his arms as a result of supporting his heavy upper body his whole life. His hooves are tough and, while a bit scarred, undeniably durable.
 
Stretching up from his right hoof, there is a white, jagged line running up his fur. It branches off and coils off in some places, like an albino lightning scar. As it dances up his fur, along the side of his thigh, it reaches his waist. Once it touches flesh, it turns into a dark mark, not unlike blood poisoning. It is moving upwards towards his heart. (think this: https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=A0LEV7.fVcxUVlYAuGInnIlQ?p=lightning+scars&amp;fr=&amp;fr2=piv-web&amp;hspart=mozilla&amp;hsimp=yhs-001 )
 
 
 
 
Attire:
 
Calder isn’t super fond of clothes. However, he wears a simple leather kilt for the sake of decency, and while his hide is thick enough to resist most glancing blows, he also has armor that he wears more or less all the time. This is not at all up to the caliber of other nations’ armors, and is instead a hodgepodge assembly of various bones and pieces of armor from those that Calder has bested. Over his right shoulder is a curved bone plate of…some animal, gods only know what. Leather cords and some chain attach the various pieces together, with another similar (but noticeably smaller) plate covering his other shoulder, a thick leather breastplate hanging over his front, with criss-crossing chains covering his gut and back. A large rucksack is normally slung over his shoulder.
 
Personality:
 
Calder is an anomaly. In him rages the violence and simple strength of all Minotaur-he yearns for battle and opportunities to prove his strength over others. However, he is also far more nuanced than that. Calder craves something else-some deeper meaning, some philosophical intricacies that tribal life could not offer him. He tried fighting more. It was still there. He bested others and took their women for his own. It was still there. He ran for days on end and wrestled the strongest beasts in the Wilderness and it was still there.
 
Calder is an avid student of the arts. He is…abysmal…at music, literature (he is not entirely literate), and painting, but he is nonetheless interested. What little money he has he often spends on books to try and improve his reading abilities, and Calder carries a sketchbook and charcoal with him (these sketches are not considered good by anyone’s definition of the word, but carry a sort of honest beauty to them). Calder is also not very intelligent-however, he seeks to understand, and is very wise in his own way. Calder considers the world around him often, and is a good judge of character. He is easily deceived and slightly gullible, almost stupidly held to a code of honor, but he is a good soul. Calder enjoys helping others and greatly enjoys meeting people. He is not very skilled with rhetoric or speaking, and is not entirely good at picking up on social cues. His ravenous hunger also tends to alarm any who break bread with Calder. Calder’s not being the smartest leads to his slow mentality. Not mentally slow, but rather a slow pace of life. Calder is never in a rush. He will mull over the same verse of poetry for days on end, trying to figure out what it means, take his time travelling from one town to the next. He often pauses to think over his words before he says them, and continues to consider a topic of conversation long after it has changed.
 
Calder is a lover of animals. He, in fact, has an almost magical ability to interact with them. His child-at-heart nature seems to win over most creatures, and on his many journeys he has crossed paths with a great number of beasts, some of whom accompanied him a ways. Calder claims to be able to talk with them. Whether this means he is deluded into believing he can or is mentally close enough to them to be able to do so is anyone’s guess. Regardless, songbirds often find a welcome perch on Calder’s horns and can enjoy a respite from flight for many hours there.

Calder appreciates beauty. He finds this in the bloodrush of defeating one’s enemies, in the sunsets that he always takes time to watch, and in the curves of a nimble dryad. He is simple and plain. He is confident but also humble. Calder does not desire much in the world-he is rugged and capable of enduring harsh conditions with relative ease. Perhaps owing to his lesser intelligence, Calder is very difficult to dismay. His determination is remarkable, and it is extremely difficult to break his morale.
 
Upon learning of his condition, Calder’s outlook on life has greatly changed. Calder savors every moment. He takes time to watch every sunset. He always stops to talk with people. He contemplates issues a lot and looks to live life to the fullest before his time comes. Calder is at peace with the thought of death, and has a quiet, steady faith in whatever powers exist that all will be right when that time comes.
 
Hobbies/interests: Sketches and writing poetry. He is also teaching himself to read and analyze poetry with varying degrees of success. He loves hiking and observing nature, meeting new people, and generally taking in the world around him. Calder also keeps a diary. It is almost comically terse, and occasionally cryptic (although this is a possible unintentional side effect of his writing abilities).
 
Skills: He is hardy survivalist, tanner, and quite strong. Calder can locate food and get a fire going with very little difficulty. He is knowledgeable about a wide range of animal life and plant life and capable of applying all of his focus and energy towards a task at once. He is extremely stubborn and possesses great force of will. He’s relatively famous amongst minotaur, and can command respect if not obedience from most of them. He has traveled a great deal and is not only an experienced trekker but knows a bit about a lot of places and peoples. His understanding may be...limited...but Calder is certainly well-traveled, and can tell you a great many stories about a great many places. 
 
Backstory:
 
Calder’s life is a story of victories. He was born and became stronger than his brothers. He fought them and bested them. Then he fought his father and bested him. Then he fought his chieftain and bested him. Then he fought other chieftains. Then he fought great wild beasts. He bested them.
 
Calder is one of the more skilled Minotaurs in existence today. He is naturally strong, fierce, and a prime example of a warrior. He is simply good at warfare, at staying alert for days on end, at fighting on an empty stomach and bitter throat, at staying hopeful in the face of imminent death. Calder has weathered many battles and fought many adversaries. He has emerged with scars and stories but he has emerged.
 
Calder’s life, after about seventeen, became rather dull. There simply did not seem to be much for him to do. There was a lot of fighting, but Calder found he became tired of it. Never during the act-Calder relished it, the adrenaline rush, the feel of breaking someone-there is nothing quite like it. But at night when his mates had long since begun to snore and the weeping of those he had beaten quieted down Calder came to thinking, which is something Minotaurs did not do very often. Why was he here? Was he just going to fight until one day he died? Why were his people slaves? Why did humans do that to them? What was there to life beyond his tribe?

He asked his brothers these questions. They just said it was that way. He got the same answer from his father, his chieftain, the other chieftains. and, in their own way, he received the same answer from the beasts around him and the nature he delved into.
 
Calder, one day, packed his meager belongings and set off. He bid his family goodbye and went about his way. He traveled a great many miles. There was lots of fighting to be had-sometimes to get a meal, he would agree to serve as a bouncer for a bar, a mercenary for a brief while. Slavers tried to take him sometimes. They failed. Beasts tried to kill him sometimes. They failed too.
 
Calder grew in strength and in wisdom. He walked the earth for many years. He saw the colors of the sky dancing in the Northern Isles. He saw (and killed) a dragon in the Lonesome Valley. He saw many wondrous things. He ate. He drank. He walked some more. He is closer to finding what he is looking for, the minotaur equivalent of enlightenment, but he is not there yet.
 
Calder is now reaching the end of his life. Not that he is anywhere close to the end of his natural life span-Calder, in his travels, came across a remnant of Cyclopian society, an old piece of magic that had been left dormant for eons. He unwittingly activated it-a booby trap of sorts. He survived the encounter, but later noticed a strange mark on his hoof. Some months later, he noticed it had progressed up a ways, burning the fur white as it went. Sometimes at night Calder thought he could feel it creeping up along his veins, working its way towards his heart as he slept. He tried sleeping standing up but that did not help, and also it made his neck hurt. He talked with wizards. They did not know what to do. He talked with soldiers. They did not know what to do. He talked with-no, actually, he didn’t talk with dryads. He blushed and started stammering when he talked to them. He started having strange dreams. Violent dreams. Scary dreams. Calder did not like fear-he felt it only very rarely. He felt somehow that when the strange ancient magic made its way to his heart he would die.
 
For a while Calder panicked. He went feral. He drank himself into a stupor for nights on end and fought and fought and fought. It did not make him feel any better. He has since come to terms with it, and now only seeks to enjoy the remaining months he has left. He has noticed no deterioration of his physical abilities, but figures that he has roughly six months to a year left before it reaches his heart.
 
Family: Father, brothers, mother. All of whom he has bested. Several mates.  
 
 
Relationships:  
 
None. Calder is a wanderer.
 
Weaponry:
 
He primarily wields a flammenschwert variant of a zweihander which is about seven feet long. Many braids and bones strung to leather cords hang from the pommel-likely trophies of some kind. Calder has named it Sylvia. Years of experience and his supreme physical abilities let him wield this with considerable dexterity.
 
He has a war hammer that is about four feet long and is primarily used for carpentry work and disassembling human heads. He has named it Anastasia.
 
He has a small knife he uses for skinning and such. He has named it Delilah.
 
Calder also carries around a bag of primitive, minotaurian tribal cures. The efficacy of these is…strongly debatable.
 
He is also quite skilled with taking a length of chain and beating the fuck out of something with it. He finds it cathartic, and beautifully ironic given his species’ tendency to be taken as slaves.
 
Abilities:
 
They will be brought before Calder and they shall be broken. Calder is an experienced, seasoned warrior who possesses about two decades of combat training on top of raw physical ability. Calder, beyond that, does not have much he can offer. He is simple, both in his gifts and in his mindset. Calder will go and fight the Red Legion because that seems like a good thing to do. There is not much more to it. 

That being said, this is his one ability. A hammer may only be good for driving in nails, but it is really fucking good at driving in nails. Calder understands warfare on a great many levels, and approaches combat with both calm, fatalist acceptance and the fury and passion that drives his race. He is an absolute motherfucker to fight and, while he will likely be brought low by his curse before he can see Ignion burn, he will do his tribe proud before he does.
 
He has the barest of magical abilities that manifests in his affinity for animals. Calder can deal with animals very, very well, and loves them all dearly. This does not stop him from eating some of them.
 
Weaknesses:
 
Dryads. Also females of any kind. Also he’s terminally afflicted by a curse. Also he’s not very subtle. Also he’s really shitty with money. 
 
Companion:  Many, but few stay for extended periods of time.
 
Other: Polaris.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 25
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> He is man.
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Human.
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Nepharie
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span>
Tucker is what most of the population would consider an attractive young human male, standing at 5’8, and being about 160-ish pounds. He’s not the big burly man that you see so often from his race, rather, he has the lean and mean kind of build. Being built thinner than most humans, he is faster than them too, and more agile as a person. He had long and messy blonde hair and that falls to the bridge of his nose and would cover his eyes if he didn’t brush it to the side messily. Due to being what is equivalent to a European complexion, he has fair skin. He has a boyish face. Described as having a square face that’s slightly thinner than average, with a razorblade jawline that’s covered in stubble that runs up and long his lip, and up the center of his chin. His nose is what would be described as ‘greek’. His high cheekbones and thin lips give him a general masculine, but fairly attractive appearance. His eyebrows, because he is a natural blonde, share a slightly darker shade of his hair making them only barely noticeable from time to time. He has almond shaped eyes, and vivid Irish green irises. His body has a few burn marks, and some scars from crazy exes, but after that he’s pretty well off appearance wise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span>
His outfit now is partly leather around his upper body with what appears to be a type of armor along with arm brackets that seem to all be designed by himself. This leather armor can be removed somewhat easily, but because it is light, is fairly comfortable in most situations. It is adjourned with a blue beaked cloth hood that goes over his light armoring making him look more like his dragon. The beak allows him to pull it over his head and still keep it on while in the air, as to keep his appearance hidden even more so. He has brown leggings, with fur booths that are held up but a thick leather belt. This belt not only restricts his other dragon, but also holds up a sheath that holds a short sword. On his back he has a bow and arrow quiver strapped down to his back, held down by a leather strap that goes across his chest and over the hood. He keeps a flute on him at almost all times, and his messenger bag is almost always on his figure, effectively allowing him to carry some money, basic first aid, a few concoctions Arya makes, and various other trinkets like a canteen and stuff. On his hip opposite to his sword he has his throwing knives sheathed, but ready for use at almost any given time.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Hide yo kids, hide yo wife, and hide yo husbands, because Tucker the fucker be banging everything with a heartbeat out there. Tucker, being a bard, is excellent at playing music, and is just as good at playing people. He can look at how people act and normally be able to come to a fairly accurate conclusion about them within a few minutes. He’s also pretty good at talking sweet, talking trash, and striking up conversation. He’s the classy sonovagun that everyone kind of dislikes but never seems to hate enough to get rid of because he’s the kind of person to call it as he sees it. He’s not really a leader of a person, anyone with his kind of sarcasm and general personality doesn’t have the qualities required to demand authority like a real leader does, even if he does ride a dragon. He’s infamous for doing his own thing more than anything else. Swinging along with Arya or because there’s something interesting. Most people see him as a womanizer, and he can be sometimes. At his age, while he might be that somewhat, is actually less forward physically as he is verbally. In some ways he’s not quite as bad as other men, but that won't stop him from walking around with his head held high if he got the prettiest girl in the bar into a room with him for the night.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
Well for one he’s pretty good at getting laid, and is pretty good at holding his alcohol. He’s excellent in the air and despite being a general nuisance he is pretty good at working as a team with Arya. He is, after all, the most deadly then. Being a bard, he is especially good at the flute, drums, Violin, and guitar. He’s also damn good at preparing food.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
Tucker’s life didn’t get interesting until he was ten, when he essentially was left a gift by an unknown person late in the night. It was a break in, and they left the huge ovular object in the family’s living room.
 
His family initially planned to eat it, but he stepped in, wanting to see what it was. He regretted that decision a few days later when he touched it for the first time. Essentially it had some magical aspect to it, which traveled and burnt his hand badly on the palm, leaving the mark of a serpent of some kind.
 
The egg hatched only moments later.
 
Yeah, uh, lets say that they had another mouth to feed, which turned into a much larger mouth within a few years. His family was intent on putting the beast down at this point, but was stopped by the one of the city’s prodigies, Arya Faylen, who was intent on studying the creature. Pretty soon he was being forced to go hunting with the bull-sized beast on his own time in order for the family to be able to feed themselves, the wyvern being allowed to live on the case that it was an educational tool that was very hard to come by for well… anyone.
 
Needless to say, that’s how Tucker became good with his bow and hunting, as well as preparing food. He’d be gone for days at a time now and then after all. Arya and himself became close over the years; her being so intelligent and knowledgeable in so many things drew his interest. She, for the most part, took very little interest in him until the Dragon, whom he had named Calypso (Cali for short) turned on the young woman, intent on very much trying to force her upon her rider. She was calmed down of course (Bad dragon, very bad dragon!), but Arya took notice of how well he did with the beast and began learning more about him as a person. Initially it was to learn to get closer to the dragon, but soon they ended up as very close friends.
 
One night of drinking however rocked their boat a lot when they woke up naked with each other. Tucker being uncharacteristically confused, and Arya politely kicking him the fuck out of the room so she could. They had a fallout after that for a while, but came back together again as friends when Arya herself accidentally met him at a bar one time.
That was a few years ago. Now they’re about as close as can be, comfortable enough with one another to the point of which Arya challenged him their bet after hearing him boast about being the manliest man to ever walk Tithe. Now they travel, in search of females, adventure, magic, and the best alcohol one can taste.
 
Oh, and a map. They’ve been lost for a while.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
He’s got his mom and pop, and then he has his best friend Arya and then Cali, who is bonded to him for life.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
 
| <span class=""bb-b"">Arya</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Excellent</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Kinda Loves</span> | <span class=""bb-i"">“Arya and I have been with each other for a long time, a really long time. She’s smart, too much so to go for someone like me. She’s my best friend and I always find myself tracking myself back to her.”</span> |
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
Large: Bow
Medium: Short Gladius sword
Small: Throwing knives.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span>
While he is not exactly a big bloke, he is still fairly strong for his size, and is excellent with his weapons of choice (he’s also pretty good at swinging his guitar, but Maxx wont let me count that as a weapon, that shit) <span class=""bb-i"">(if you hit someone with a guitar the instrument would shatter after the first hit. And don’t call me a shit or I’ll fire you)</span> (I know full well it would and that doesnt stop me from wanting to hit someone with one you poop). He’s quick on his feet for a man and knows how to throw a punch. If worst comes to worst, his dragon is always close by and ready to back him up. He is also excellent when it comes to aim with his knives.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span>
Well for one, he’s not as built as the average person, meaning he’s not as strong and doesn’t take hits as well. His tactic is to mainly just dart in and out and be flexible and adaptable and work with his dragon. Speaking of his dragon, while it might be an excellent companion with intelligence akin to that of a human’s itself; it is big and therefore not very sneaky. Sure, when it’s hunting elk or something it knows how to be a stealthy flier but in caves and other situations the creature can be a hassle to be around and deal with. There’s also the fact that she has a bad habit to breathing small puffs of fire when she sneezes or coughs or whatever and her smoke isn’t exactly a good thing always. Tucker’s personality makes him hard to get along with at times and more often than not he’ll end up storming off with his dragon in tow, leaving Arya to either slap him back to reality or let him go, hoping he’ll come back. He’s stubborn as a mule sometimes. Also when he throws one of his knives there is the chance that the enemy gets out of the way and then suddenly they can pick up a throwing knife themselves. He knows no magic, despite pretty much spending every waking moment with a wizard.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span>
Tucker here is what the people call a ‘dragon rider’. His companion is a relatively large blue dragon that he has named Cali (Short for Calypso). Cali is a Victorian blue Wyvern style dragon, meaning it was no front limbs and walks on two legs using a long and powerful tail to balance. It’s skin is smooth and has very few bumps and spikes on it.
 
The dragon’s main method of movement is it’s long and powerful back legs, which free it’s huge and dexterous bat like wings. Despite being over ten feet tall and over thirty feet long, with a sixty foot wingspan, Cali only weighs about two tons, meaning she is relatively light for a creature her size. She IS capable of breathing fire. In fact, she can breath it in several forms. The first is a high powered, concentrated blast that only lasts a few seconds but has high impact and incredible heat, the second is regular fire (can't go wrong!) and the final is smoke, her favorite. In fact, she often blows smoke in Tucker’s face when he annoys her. This elemental ability has a range of up to forty feet, and is used almost too often by the damn drake as if it were an instrument of music to a bard. She knows it annoys both Arya and Tucker and that’s probably why she does it. As an extremely intelligent variation of dragon, she is capable of understanding nearly everything said to her and reacts to it in a way akin to that of a fellow human or elf (only difference being she can't say anything back). So much so she’s actually pretty interested in political or religious conversations when they do spike up. She gets pissy, she gets angry, and can be excited and prideful and proud and friendly and jealous and tends to display all of these emotions and everything between on a regular basis. However, perhaps her most valuable aspect is her speed and maneuverability in the air. She has an aerodynamic frame, and her gargantuan wingspan (which is about twice her already impressive length) gives her incredible propulsion, so much so that there is the potential to knock a man over with a few wingbeats. This speed allows her to hit hunting dive of two hundred miles an hour, and have a maximum horizontal flight speed of about 105 mph. On the base of her back, just behind her long and powerful neck, is Tucker’s two person saddle, which has several things tied to it. She has a leather bag or two of this and that on one side, and Tucker’s Guitar and violin on the other side to balance it out. She doesn’t carry too much because she needs to fly, but she still has some of the things they need, the essentials mainly. Like all dragons, her scales are tough and hard to penetrate. Most arrowheads, while they might be able to go poke through, won't go deep enough to cause a serious amount of harm if removed soon after. Swords and axes however are best avoided. Cali has gargantuan wings, and uses them effectively, the problem is, these wings are huge targets if she’s planning to dive in or spew fire all over the prey she or Tucker set. The skin is fairly thin on her wing membranes, and therefore things like arrowheads will go through them. While this initially won’t be a huge issue, several arrows can cause her wings to tear which is very painful and can leave her stranded on the ground if she survives the crash landing. While the wings will heal, it can take a while for this to occur. There is also the factor that if she hits her maximum nose dive speed, she can sometimes have a hard time pulling up without hurting herself.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span>
Tucker claims he can speak to Cali with his mind, and even see through her eyes with her. Arya think’s its a load of shit.

He is also in a bet with Arya to bed every race in Tithe. Polaris ain’t got shit.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 27
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female.
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Elf
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Nepharie

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> 
Being an elf, she is not a very large person by genetics. At 5’5, she’s fractionally smaller than the average human. Very few people actually know what kind of elf she is, as she looks more like a halfling than anything else. She has an odd skin color, a pale white that seems to almost glow like that of the moon at night, like a snow elf of some kind. She’s thin, but wiry in build, as is the nature of her species. To start things off, she has an oval shaped face and thin almond shaped with long eyelashes, curious blue eyes that seem to analyze anything and everything she see. She has a small mouth adjourned with full natural lips. Her nose is somewhat small, and round in shape. Her body is visibly taught with wiry muscle by nature, and her thin frame has worked against her somewhat, making her breasts and rear smaller than the preferred size. Her legs are what make her so tall for a female elf, being long and thin. Being built like a runner, she is in fact good at running, but not so much in terms of physical value, making her wits and her magic her strongest aspects. She has very long brown hair, often tied into a ponytail and split at the center of her forehead into long curtain like bangs that fall past her chin. Her eyebrows are thin and brown like her hair. Light freckling goes across her nose. Like all elves, she has long pointy ears that stick out of her hair. She has a golden ear ring pierced into the right one. Her body is almost scarless due to healing magic being used almost as soon as an injury is acquired.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span>
Her attire is well... odd. She visibly looks like a person who performs the ethereal arts often. On her forearms which are padded and made of light metal. Obviously not meant for much protection. Along it however it has intricate inscriptions and art carved into it by no doubt a master craftsman. Her upper body is covered by brown leather and a blue wool undershirt, the leather bearing similar designs pressed into it with some portions cut out to hold small stones or her undershirt. Above that, she wears a thick leather and wool half cape, which falls to the middle of her back and partially covers her arms, leaving only her forearms and elbows exposed. Along her neck, underneath the collar folds of the half cape, she has a golden amulet with three jewels pressed into it, blue, green, and red each. The amulet is no doubt worth a lot of money, and she always keeps it on her person because of it. Her waist is covered with two criss-crossed straps that rest on her hips, each holding a medium sized pack that rests on either side of her thigh, tightly held in place. On her legs she wears black leggings and trekking boots over her feet, with light leather padding on the front of her legs and on her knees.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
There's only one kind of person who can be around Tucker for such a long period of time, and that is the kind of cool, calculated genius with a sprinkle of wicked sarcasm and dark humor that can not only use your jabs against you, but make an idiot out of everything you are and do should they choose to. Arya is incredibly smart, too much so for her own good at times. She won't even attempt to fight some battles if she knows the chances are small and will almost always try to find the easiest route or a win-win situation. In that way, she's incredibly lazy.

She's an incredibly studious woman, her nose is almost always in some book, or writing something down in her note pad.  when she's not dragging Tuck out of trouble. Being a mage, she's a practiced analytic and while Tucker might be better at reading people, she's superior in well... Reading everything else. Very few things get her legitimately excited or happy that aren't books of magic or Tucker making a fool of himself. She can be awkward with new people, more often than not coming off as cold until she deems them worthy of her attention. She will often question life in general, and anything else that falls under the purview of philosophy. What is, what has been, what could've been, and what could be are very big questions she often asks herself.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span>
Reading, writing, philosophy, as an alchemist in training she’s fairly good at making concoctions that stimulate healing or strength or buff something or another. She’s taken to writing music for Tucker. She’s spent many years working with various forms of magic and in doing so has learned how to identify a few of the more well known magical or exotic creatures in the land.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Alchemy, spellcasting, working under pressure, multi tasking, confusing the hell out of people with hard questions, etc. She is excellent at using magic for practical purposes and often does use it to assist in various everyday things. New spells are used on Tucker for practice.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 
Arya's life has been relatively streamlined since she was young. Due to her family being elite and wealthy scholars in the magical field, as soon as she could walk and talk she was taught how to use Light magic. The basics mainly, but it was clear she was a prodigy at it from the start. Her affinity to the arts were uncanny even by her heritage.

At the age of ten she was sent to college of the ethereal arts to learn how to use light magic. She spent several years in this school, only having a day off during a week of almost constant schooling and direction in her art and other various things (for example, she knows how to read and write, while Tucker didn't know how to read until she taught him). At the age of thirteen she came to know Tucker's family and his dragon, whom she saved from being slaughtered by the family for lack of means to take care of it. Assisting the family with some of her own family's money, the young drake was spared and life continued on relatively normally after that, except now she had a tool to study. A creature of myth and legend to conduct research on. When she was sixteen the dragon turned upon her for an unknown reason, and Tucker stepped in to calm the beast. It was then that they began getting closer. Arya initially did so to gain protection from the now fairly large beast, but quickly became attached to Tucker's magnetic personality.

The years trailed on and Arya continued her schooling. At the age of twenty one things went odd when she went out drinking with Tucker and other friends. Essentially the two woke up to one another. They drifted from one another for a while, only to reunite again at the same bar a few years later at the age of twenty-three. Basically they ended up hugging one another and have been virtually inseparable ever since. One night she made a bet with him to bed every race in Tithe. Now they travel, looking for spellbooks, gold, females, and glory.

And a map, because they've been lost as shit since Cali burnt the map up on accident. (“accident”)

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
She is of an elite line, and and therefore her family has taken good care of itself. Her mother, father, brother, and even her grandparents are still alive.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
Large: A Staff.
Medium: Magic
Small: Various vials of potions she’s made, A dagger.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span>
She is a prodigy at magic, and has expertly acted upon her natural affinity with the art. She has been learning to use and control light magic since she could talk. Initially from her parents, and then from her college, where she stayed for the better portion of her life. She has been practicing the art in depth for over seventeen years diligently and has therefore become very adept at using the elements she has at her disposal, with mishaps here and there of course. But generally she's reliable and an excellent backup. She also carries her staff which she sometimes used as a medium for casting and/or hitting. She has developed the very interesting ability to cast electricity, and in doing so has figured out how to chain it to closeby targets as to harm them at the same time. Her alchemy has been something she’s always been fairly good at, and in her satchels she normally carries various ingredients and vials which she will brew at a later date. She almost always has a few healing potions on her person at all times in case magic can’t be relied on, normally has an emergency seed she can plant if she starts feeling unnaturally tired.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> 
While she is powerful and agile, she is not very good on the physical front. She is a spellcaster, a mage, not a brawler or an up close fighter. If you manage to get past her tricks, she is left relatively defenseless. She also doesn't have much protection from ranged weaponry such as bullets, bolts, or arrows that are not wards of some kind or ironflesh. She also needs to plant seeds fairly often due to her common use of magic. She is limited in the same ways all elves are. On the personal side, while she is fairly dexterous she does wear glasses and if those are knocked off her vision is severely impaired.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> 
She and Tucker both consider Cali their dragonic companion, even though Cali is imprinted upon and is Tucker's dragon.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 53
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Saurian
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Tropics

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> 
Tooth is a very large being, standing in the upper sizes of the Saurian race, being 8'1 and weighing about six hundred pounds give or take (without his armor he’s probably in the 500’s). He's really just a big guy. He's covered in short square charcoal colored feathers, and has deep black scales. These feathers usually maroon in coloration at the ends. On the underside of his arms and insides of his legs and belly, he has white, pristine feathers. Along his neck he has red plumage that is normally relaxed against his neck, but like a bird's can stand on end when alarmed. He has four fingers and three toes, each tipped with small and somewhat pointy claws. His feathers cover up his vast array of scars and healed wounds.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> 
A simple long sleeve leather and cloth tunic is what he wears over his feathers and scales, but over that, his exteriors looks far more intimidating. He has two huge metal and fur padded shoulder pads that are strapped across his chest, and two thick and dark steel metal gauntlets that rest over his forearms and the back of his hand, held in place by furs and gauze like straps that go around the underside of his hands, leaving his fingers free. His chest is covered with thick bone armor, most likely taken from something that was armored in life. His leggings are composed of thick leather and much like his arms, has thick metal guards over his shins half in place by leather and gauze like straps. He wears no shoes on his feet. On his tail he has segmented armor that goes along the base, but disappears somewhat abruptly as it flattens out. He wears no helmet, instead he has a hood attached, which he often has up. On each of his hips he has the blades strapped in their sheaths, and on his back he has his crossbow. Behind the sheath on his left hip his crossbow bolt case, and on the right he has his satchel.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Overall, Tooth is what most view as the quiet one. The person who enjoys their 'me time' more than anyone else. He watches and listens when need be but is otherwise near the back, quiet. Some might define him as a follower, or two unintelligent to add to it. They'd be dead wrong. Tooth is a very intelligent person who, when listening to plans, fonds their faults and does his best to cover them. He is an extremely patient person. Having spent so many years on voyages or trading routes, he has built up a resilience to the effects of time most men never have. This resilience has been applied to most of her personality, making him slow to anger or become frustrated, as well as slow to be entertained or befriended. He is a very hesitant person because he has seen a lot of different people. From the nicest to the most twisted there are, and he's met a lot of the latter. This makes him slow to trust people in general and while others rely on him, he always has an eye out for himself. He always watches his own back with diligent regard. Going as far as to set trip wires around his sleeping quarters or water buckets at the top of doors to alert him if he sleeps. If he is in the presence of a particular individual, he won't sleep at all.

He is a firm believer in forgive but do not forget. For some, like Apollos, he does not regard them as scum of the earth or to be killed on sight any longer. However he keeps his money close to his person at all times, and still regards him as the person he once was and knows what he's capable of doing. This mental dictionary has saved his life before.

He always seems to be in a state of zen, with his voice being flat and devoid of emotion even if he feels it. He never lets his opposition, or even his friends and allies, know that he's tiring or angry. He sees some emotions as having nothing but negative and useless value, and therefore makes every attempt to separate himself from them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span>
Carving, mapmaking, fishing, listening, and watching. He has an appreciation for music, and generally keeps a logbook of his adventures and travels. He can often be found writing or drawing things that he’d found or discovered in their journey. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
As a sailor he is extremely well versed in the lands and almost always has a good sense of where he is in the world. Time zones, land formations, battlegrounds, unsafe territory, he can give a good idea of where they are and point the group in the right direction. He also speaks several languages, and is able to communicate with most people enough to get an idea of what’s going on or what is being sold. As a trader, he is excellent at finding good deals and sniffing out rip offs. Due to his area of origin and experience outside of it he’s also pretty good on telling you what his edible and what is not, and what ingredients have what effect. He’s not a good alchemist, but he knows what the good alchemists want. He also knows how to set up camp and is very knowledgeable in the ‘how to’s of surviving in the wild during traveling.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 
Tooth is fairly secretive person when it comes to his life. What IS known however is that he was and is a sailor and has been one for upwards of twenty years, the only reason he's not sailing is due to wanting to travel the land for a while. In being a sailor he's met a lot of people, and has learned a lot of things about about the land of Tithe.

In being a sailor he has also had to deal with his fair share of marauders in the past. He's nearly been killed several times, has been thrown off his ship, been taken as prisoner, etc. In all of these cases, he has survived. He has been through a few ships, and eventually, he learned how to really become a man worth being feared. Some of the most feared pirates of the seas learned to fear his name and avoid his ships. His swordsmanship was unmatched, his wits and ability to sail the seas were unrivaled, and his ability to strike a good deal? Legendary.

It’s been several years since then, but many markets still know his name, and he has many stories to tell, and many to be made.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> 
Most of his family has passed away of older age, but he does have a divorced mate and two children. All three of which he doesn’t see often anymore, due to not being in the Tropics.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> 

Placeholder.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> 
Large: Crossbow
Medium: A four foot long steel Khopesh sword.
Small: A Tomahawk, and a blowpipe with a few (about six) nonlethal hallucinogenic poison darts.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
As a Saurian, he enjoys several of the advantages that the other races do not, such as size and his senses. He will smell or hear people coming before anyone else sees them. There is also the fact that his size makes him hard to directly confront. There is also the fact that as a sailor he has learned how to fight, and he has learned how to fight well, as far as to besting Apollos in a swordfight all those years ago. Years of defending his ship has left him with incredible swordsman skills and his extra limb that is his tail gives him an extra edge in a fight. His vision is excellent in the dark, so far as to be considered night vision, allowing him to see things where others cannot. He is an excellent shot with his crossbow. Finally, he knows how to set traps, and knows some… interesting methods for beating enemies such as literally starting forest fires to starve them out before moving on, for example.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> 
While he is a rather intimidating person, he isn’t without weakness. He is subject to the same weaknesses that the Saurian race is normally subject to (such as being colorblind and sensory overloaded), as well as the ever present cold blooded factor that is unique to his species. Finally, while he was once one of the most deadly men to roam the seven seas that even pirates feared happening upon, the is the fact that he is not what he used to be. Being in his early fifties, Tooth is starting to slow down. His race tends to live to the seventies or eighties, so he is beginning to reach that point where his ability to heal is getting slower, he can’t throw himself around like he used to be able to, hangovers are all days things, if he bangs his arm or falls down he feels it in the morning, he’s past his prime by now. While he might’ve been able to beat enemies like he did once before, he himself recognizes that he probably doesn’t have the youth required to best some of the toughest foes around any longer.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sikarthis
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 470
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Glacial Knight
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Glaces, The Northlands 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Standing at a sizable height of 6'5"", Sikarthis is readily recognizable even among a throng of his fellow Glacial Knights. Though somewhat slender, his frosty form has been honed and hardened by centuries of warfare, training, and hardships into an almost unmatched fighting machine. <a href=""http://puu.sh/fzXE5/64b11c39cd.jpg"">Narrow eyes, high cheekbones and a permanent look of irritation give Sikarthis a rather unapproachable appearance that mirrors his feelings towards the majority of those he is forced to deal with.</a> Sikarthis keeps his hair long, preferring to keep it on either side of his face and out of his eyes. As he shaves only every so often it is not uncommon to find him with stubble or the beginnings of a beard on his face. His skin, like all Glacial Knights, has the appearance of a frosted, iced over lake.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Like all Glacial Knights, Sikarthis dons a uniquely crafted set of armor made of extremely hard and durable ice, though he had changed quite a bit of it throughout the centuries. His armor consists of shoulder pauldrons, a cuirass with an attached groin and thigh guard, flexible 'mail and micro-plate' sleeve coverings that extend over his hands, and a pair of greaves. Sikarthis has long chosen to forfeit the use of a helm, choosing instead a simple head wrap that leaves little more than the area around his eyes exposed. This has serves the dual purposes of protecting him from smoke and similiar battlefield hazards as well as keeping his identity hidden from his enemies. Much of this armor is lighter than the kind commonly worn by Glacial Knights and therefore not quite as good at protecting him from harm. This does mean however that he is significantly more flexible and agile than most of his fellows, allowing him to make full use of his weapon of choice and the fighting style that goes with it.

When not wearing his armor Sikarthis wears a simple covering over his genitalia for decency's sake.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Among the speciesist Glacial Knights Sikarthis is counted as one of the most difficult members of leadership to pinpoint in terms of political standing. While he makes no attempt to hide his contempt and irritation towards those outside his own species it has not gone unnoticed that he has little praise or time even for his fellow Knights. Added to that are recent rumors that he and the Haderlock envoy Tári Númenessë have been attending to one another at night, further putting doubts on his views towards outsiders. Whatever his actual stance on the matter, none can argue that he is unfit for his current position as both lead diplomat and renowned lieutenant for Glaces.

Renowned for his cold, calculating approach to both diplomacy and war, Sikarthis views every conversation, debate, engagement and even every tumble in the sheets as a battle of wits and wills where one side must come out on top. Lacking nothing for patience he bides his time in all matters, feigning disinterest or foolishness until such a time that he can make use of an opponent's overconfidence or laxness to gain the upper hand. This approach to life has won him many battles and enemies, both on the field and inside the walls of Glaces. Despite any misgivings about his views on foreigners his success as a commander and a tactician have also earned him great respect from those serving under him and it is rare to find him without attendants or hanger-ons looking for approval or handouts. He is fond of using simple board games as a means of gauging his opponents off of the battlefield as well, much to the irritation of several of his regular correspondents.

Sikarthis, unlike the rest of his kind, has for the past century had his gaze turned towards the south, past the borders of the Northlands and into The Wilderness where he claims untold power and resources await his people. His fellow officers (and indeed the general himself) have attempted to dissuade him from that line of thought, pointing out that the distance, weather difference, and manpower required to make such an expedition and hold any territory claimed would stretch thin their already small numbers. Were he more approachable Sikarthis might find allies in his arguments but as it were his blunt, callous approach to dealing with others does not translate well to making friends or good first impressions. Some have wondered how he managed to become the finest diplomat in Glaces given this fact.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Sikarthis generally spends his free time locked away in his chambers while inside the walls of Glaces, reading from an extensive and ever expanding library of scrolls, tomes, tablets and carvings on a variety of subjects. Often his focus is on military and political history and the tactics of the past, both inside and outside of the Northlands. Trade with Haderlock has given him many a new avenue with which to pursue this interest. Not content just read about such matters, it is not uncommon to find Sikarthis one of the many training halls about Glaces, practicing constantly to turn studied material into practical, proven techniques. 

As Tári Númenessë is currently the only ambassador in Glaces he has recently spent a sizable amount of time verbally sparring with her about matters both important and inane. The two have also taken to bouncing languages off the other in a sort of impromptu dialect trade. So far Sikarthis has learned more words in more languages for the male genitalia than he had likely been expecting. 

 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Sikarthis speaks several languages and dialects thanks to his centuries of dedicated study, though his understanding of some is more rudimentary at best. Diplomacy is also a strong suit of his and he is well known for his ability to gain the upper hand (or at least even the playing field) in even the most seemingly one sided of talks. He for finding 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
While it is no mystery that Sikarthis has risen to two positions of power within Glaces few seem to recall exactly how it was that he managed to reach the heights he has today. Many attribute his position and power to connections within the king's court while others talk of favoritism from the general. In reality however Sikarthis rose through the ranks as anyone did, from the very bottom upwards by his own hand. Low ranking soldiers themselves, the young Glacial Knight was groomed for war long before he had reached even his first decade of life. In the years before his enlistment into the military proper Sikarthis had little interaction with his family outside of daily training when they were stationed inside of Glaces, preferring instead to spend his time out by the harbor watching and waiting for ships to come in.

Serving as little more than a foot soldier for half of his first century of life Sikarthis drew the attention of his commanding officers through his tactical insight and prowess with his <span class=""bb-i"">redaktsyia</span> on the battlefield. The young soldier was difficult not to notice, his unwillingness to back down from a challenge and his apparent skill making it quite clear to his superiors that he intended to do better for himself than his low ranking parents ever had for themselves. From there it was not long until he was leading small squads of his own men and eventually taking orders directly from the general himself. No matter the task Sikarthis proved himself to be an able and adaptable commander as well as a talented warrior. After two centuries of continually proving his worth there were few above him who could deny that a lieutenant's rank was his by rights and even those detractors fell silent on the day that Sikarthis held a mountain pass with a small number of soldiers at his command against a force several times their size. Despite heavy losses, his own parents among them, Sikarthis managed not only to drive back the assaulting force but even beheaded the enemy commander in single combat before leading a counter attack that left the enemy force entirely shattered.

A lieutenant's rank now attached to his name, Sikarthis was able to focus on other matters of interests him, namely the study of history and diplomacy. Three decades of study brought him to a point where he believed he could match wits with the best of them and it quickly became apparent to those in Glaces that he was right. As the decades have passed his studies have continued alongside his military career, his experience in both expanding along with his power within the ranks of the general populace. Recently, with the trade between Glaces and Haderlock as well as the arrival of their diminutive ambassador, Sikarthis has stepped up his discussions about expanding south of the Frost River. So far few have been willing to give the idea much thought.


<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Both of Sikarthis' parents died in battle under his command. They were low ranking soldiers of little importance and therefore not worth mentioning as far as he is concerned.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Tári Númenessë | Questionable | Frienemy | As cunning as she is small, yet overly fond of vulgarities. Little more than an irritating elf in my book. And yet...

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Large: Sikarthis carries into battle the same weapon he has carried since the first day he stepped onto a battlefield, a <span class=""bb-b"">redaktsyia</span> (Bladestaff in the Iceman tongue) forged from the same enchanted ice as all Glacial Knight weapons. Perfectly balanced and fairly light despite its size, this polearm gives Sikarthis an impressive amount of flexibility in how he uses it as well as quite a bit of breathing room to work with. The weapon is around ten nine feet in height, the extremely sharp and durable blade making up three of those feet. (It's basically just a really big, reinforced naginata)

Medium: Though he rarely uses it, Sikarthis possesses a short sword measuring roughly two and a half feet in length. It is crafted from the same material as his polearm, though the design is less elegant and more designed around causing maximum trauma upon retracting a stab.

Small

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Centuries of study, training, and combat experience have turned Sikarthis into one of the most dangerous warriors in the Northlands, his icy polearm leaving bloody trails through the air as it cleaves through flesh and bone alike. Lethality and grace mark his every movement, from the way he seems to dance away from blows to the twirling of his hands as he slices through the neck of a hapless foe. With his body tempered and his mind razor sharp it is no wonder that he has amassed a collection of heads belonging to the commanders and champions who faced him in battle and lost.

Where Sikarthis is truly skilled however is in his grasp of military tactics and his ability to marshal men to his side. Few lieutenants are as capable of inspiring their soldiers into an unwavering fighting machine or playing mind games with an enemy commander until he finds himself surrounded and half his troops dead at his feet as Sikarthis is.


<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Along with all of the usual weaknesses common among Glacial Knights Sikarthis adheres to a strict warrior code (and a nagging voice in the back of his head) that prevents him from turning away from most challenges presented to him. Given the choice he will gladly face an opposing force twice his size with little more than a handful of men, so sure of his own abilities that he fails to foresee any negative outcome.

His attitude towards others is also often a hindrance, as despite his current positions within the Glacial Knight society he has little in the way of allies or friends and even less luck making any outside of his species. With this comes an unwillingness to accept support from most individuals, seeing it as a sign of weakness when he cannot rely fully on himself. 

Some within Glaces would say that the recent arrival of a certain ambassador has also count as a weakness, though not within his earshot.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 70
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Elf - Volcanic
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Originally: The Wilderness, Phoenix mountains. Currently serving as Ambassador of Haderlock to the Glacial Knights of Glaces.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Weighing in at a grand total of 93 lbs and an impressive height of 4'9"" it is small wonder that Tári often goes unnoticed, the fact that her ebony skin is in direct contrast with her naturally red hair keeping her from fading entirely into the background. Of course, her slender but shapely form also plays a large part in gaining attention, making up in other places what she lacks in height.

Tári prefers to keep her hair off her back and shoulders, sweeping a portion of it over her the left side of her face in order to keep her scar and clouded eye hidden from immediate view. She has a button nose, largish eyes, a rosy complexion (difficult to notice with her skin tone) and the shape of her face could best be described as an inverted triangle. The edges of her mouth appear to have a natural upward curve as well as it seems there is always a smile of one kind or another on her face.

Not entirely cut off from her culture, Tári maintains the ceremonial markings of her tribe, though they lack the reddish pigment commonly used by her people.

(And because I'm a visual person here's the closest I could make of this 2lewd shorty <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCv9x/92d1435d55.jpg"">x</a> <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCvkN/180bd49b9b.jpg"">x</a> <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCvo1/564965d5b5.jpg"">x</a>)

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Due to the extreme temperatures of Glaces and the Northlands in general, Tári is more often than not wearing several layers of woolen underclothes and a fur coat given to her on her initial arrival to Glaces that extends down to around her shins. A fur hat of some kind is not out of the question and gloves are a must in the frigid city as well, though due to her higher than normal body temperature she can often forgo a few layers on the warmer days. 

When not bundled up (generally when she is in her private quarters where there is actual heat) Tári tends towards rather revealing dresses or gowns of a reddish hue. Bangles, necklaces, earrings and other jewelry also makes an appearance during such times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Many in history have questioned what a cat would be like if it were turned into a human. Tári is likely the closest answer to that question. Possessed of a 'Do-As-I-Like' attitude and the self assurance that the world revolves around and will adapt to her, Tári has waltzed her way through life so far with hardly a care. Charming to the extreme and well aware of the effect she has on most men (and some women), she's never been afraid to use her 'talents' to further her own goals. Coming from a tribe of volcanic elves in a harsh, unforgiving terrain that takes more lives than it gives the nubile young elf has always viewed intimacy as a daily part of life that someone with the right attitude can use to their advantage. 

Notoriously lazy as well, it is often a wonder to her peers how she managed to become an ambassador at all. It is not uncommon to find her slumped into a chair in front of a warm fire, fast asleep after a meal or discussion with the Glacial Knight leadership. When not snoozing or floozing she can often be found enjoying the finer things in life. This normally includes copious amounts of fermented alcohol, decadent desserts and succulent meat.

Tári is, as befits her job, a social butterfly who excels at conversation, bartering, and manipulating small numbers of individuals towards a certain subject or train of thought. This, her looks, and her ability to debate with the best of them made her an ideal candidate to act as ambassador from Haderlock to Glaces.

Dancing, painting and digging up juicy gossip are also on that list. She also has an interest in jewelery crafting and body markings, both things her people are quite skilled at.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tári is a people person. She enjoys conversation, she enjoys debate, and she enjoys manipulating others into doing what she wants with as little effort as possible. Her years of fine living and time spent at a counsel table discussing trade agreements have left her with a better understanding of bartering and the cost of goods than most, making her a dangerous customer in any store. Furthermore, Tári has a knack for learning languages both written and spoken, shown by her unofficial tutoring of Sikarthis. She knows over a hundred and six words or slang terms for various genitalia.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Born into a small tribe of volcanic elves on one of the many slopes of the Phoenix mountains, surrounded by volcanic ash and dangerous magma flows, Tári Númenessë was born into the world ready to confuse and irritate quite a large number of people. Since the time she could walk the young elf was finding her way into places that she shouldn't be and hoarding sweets and other goodies that belonged to other children. Once she had learned to speak it was all any of the tribe's adults could do to keep her from arguing with them or tricking the other kids into relinquishing their treasures. Eventually Tári's own parents were forced to take action, secluding their troublesome child in their forge where they taught her the basics of their trade. It wasn't until the young girl had reached her tenth year of life that she was given permission to leave the forge every so often again.

It was on one such occasion that Tári spotted something she had never seen before, a massive caravan line passing far below the village at the base of the mountain slope. Rather than sit around and tell an adult, Tári ran down to see what the long train of people was all about, slipping one of her parents jeweled daggers onto her person as she passed the forge just to be safe. When she reached the base of the mountain the caravan was still proceeding along with wagons, sleds and pack animals deepening the depressions in the newly stomped path left by those that came before them. Making little effort to hide herself at all Tári was surprised to find that nobody paid her much attention, exhaustion set in everyone's eyes as they trudged alongside the wagons holding their worldly belongings. For the young elf it was far too interesting to simply head back the way she had come and so she decided to tag along for a while and investigate further.

Several hours (and many many miles) later she realized that she could no longer see the mountain her village was located on. As would end up being the norm for her in later years however she took it in stride, certain that she could find her way back eventually. Suffice to say she never did and it took several months, right up until the caravan reached it's destination at what would become Haderlock, for anyone to say ""Wait who's kid is this?"" By then however Tári had integrated herself into the daily life of the exiles, making herself useful in little ways while managing to avoid trouble (or at least managing to avoid getting caught). With nobody willing to make the journey to return the youth it was agreed that it would be best to wait until she was older and capable of undertaking such a trip by herself.

As the years passed and Haderlock began to blossom it became readily apparent to many that the young elf had a knack for bartering and talking herself out of nasty situations and into sweeter ones. She found herself taken in by merchants and con-men alike, each hoping to monopolize on her promising skills only to be disappointment when she turned the tables on them, her purse heavy with coin and several new tricks up her sleeve at their expense. It wasn't long until she began to inject herself into the social lives of the upper class where she worked tirelessly to expand her list of contacts and 'friends' using whatever means were available to her. From there it was a one way track towards diplomatic work, her 'friends' pulling strings to land her a comfortable and safe job working for the kingdom by handling trade agreements.

When the alliance was signed months ago with the Glacial Knights, Tári was chosen to act as acting Ambassador, a position she accepted with relish for both the increase in salary as well as the chance to expand her influence outside of Juvegol. Currently she resides in the newly constructed Haderlock embassy located in Glaces where she spends much of her time in her tightly sealed chambers in front of quite possibly the only fireplace within a hundred mild radius. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Tári's father and mother are likely both back at the Phoenix Mountains, extracting rare gems from the lava flows and crafting items from them as was their trade.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Sikarthis|Questionable|Useful|Tall, cold, kind of a dick. Honestly, you'd think with the way I've been handling him he'd be a bit more warm. Guess it'll take a bit more to melt that ice. Hrmmm...

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Small: A stiletto dagger forged of blackened steel and jeweled with rubies. A ""gift"" from her parents according to her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Due to the treacherous nature of the Phoenix mountains Tári's people have long been sure of foot and naturally adept at moving unseen when they need to. The shadows are her friends when she has need of them, blending into the darkest corners with hardly a sound before resurfacing inside of what should have been a locked room or holding documents that were in a lockbox moments before. While she is far from combat effective she is quite skilled with holding peoples attention and interest once she has it making her fairly useful in situations that call for going mostly unnoticed. 

In her free time she has also continued to learn the trade of jewelry crafting, fetching a modest second income off her creations and ensuring that she'll never be short of coin should the demand remain.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Tári has a tendency to prefer lazing about to doing actual work and she can be difficult to motivate into doing anything for others that won't directly benefit her in some way or another. Along with that she holds grudges easily and often attempts to return any slights against her person twice over.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 491
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Shade
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Concordius 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span>
<img src=""http://sfmlab.com/media/jumbo/DOALadyBig.jpg.750x500_q85_crop.jpg""/>
Honoria stands at around 5’7” and weighs about 115lbs. Her skin, as a Shade, is now a dark grey colour rather than the silvery white that she once was. Her dark smoky eyes are as alluring as they are intimidating, and it’s impossible to tell which direction she is looking in. She has some faint scaring around her body from where she was chained with Iron, a grim reminder of the pain she was put through. Her voice is deep (for a female) and somewhat majestic sounding, similar to the voice of Galadriel in the LOTR movies. She has great posture and walks with a royal grace. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> She is covered by root like things that are in fact a part of her body. She is able to extend these for better coverage and provide some minimal defense. Fortunately her turning did not seem to affect her control of this. Her only real clothing is a belt which she wears purely to house a money bag and her dagger. She also wears a small vial on a necklace, filled with a small few drop from Matrem’s Well. The necklace was a gift she received from a suitor when she was very young. She has contemplated getting some armour but after half a millennium of being naked, she struggles with the idea.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Honoria was once a kind and gentle soul, willing to help any who came to her for aid. Since turning into a shade however, she has changed drastically. Feeling as if her entire world has been stripped from her, she is now an incredibly vengeful entity and finds herself in fits of rage from time to time. She is <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> slow to make friends, being distrustful of most (especially humans) but she is willing to cooperate if it means achieving her goals. She has also grown bitter and has grown jealous of others who have a close connection with nature, feeling as if her own connection has been permanently severed. She is angered by those who don’t understand nature or wish to do it harm. In fact, she seemed to be quickly angered by anyone these days but at least is able to control her emotions and vent them in <span class=""bb-i"">creative</span> ways. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> She mostly spends her time brooding, but can occasionally make time to retrain her magical abilities or to sing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Honoria has a natural penchant for befriending and even (to a certain extent) understanding animals and creatures. This doesn’t mean to say that she can talk to them or read their minds, but can, on some strange level, empathise with what they currently feel. She is also a nice singer, as are most Dryads. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
Honoria was until recently known by many as ‘The Wandering Lady’ because of the tree that she was bound to, for it was a moving tree known as ‘Young Bark’. Young Bark was a gigantic tree that, unlike other moving trees, rarely stopped. For more nearly 500 hundred years Honoria sat atop Young Bark as the colossus drifted around Concrodius, protecting it when need be. Some of the more religious people of the world, including many Fairfolk, would find and tend the tree. Others sometimes came looking for The Wandering Lady because her healing skills were extraordinary. And so it was a peaceful existence for Honoria, one that lasted almost half a millennium… but unfortunately all good things must come to an end. 

When the Red Legion begun attacking settlements in the Wilderness, twas not only the forces of Brighton and Pyreton that felt the Legion’s sting. There were many small scale attacks and shows of support from their agents and secret sympathisers in the south and as it was, Honoria was one of the victims. A mob of twenty human men tracked down The Wandering Lady, claiming they sought her help with their afflictions. But when Honoria left the safety of Young Bark to aid them, they brandished weapons of Cold Iron and pinned her down. She tried to fight them off but her combat magic was limited and she was easily overpowered. They wrapped her in Iron chains and made her watch as they sprung an ambush for Young Bark, who had heard her cries and rushed to her aid. It was torture in every sense for her as she watched in agony as the tree was set aflame and her natural object was destroyed. They no doubt would have killed her (and worse) were it not for arrival of Fairfolk who had seen the flames from a distance. Much to her anger, the Fairfolk managed to assure Honoria's release through intimidation rather than go to blows. Meaning that the men responsible for this defilement are still out there somewhere. 

In the time since then she has been staying at the Temple of Matrem. Not much time has passed and yet her personality has already changed drastically. At first she spent her time trying to reconnect with nature or find some semblance of peace or purpose, but to no avail. Her world is shattered and now all she seeks is revenge. Much to the disdain of the Fairfolk around her, she has begun to learn Dark Magic with worrying speed. Given this and the fact she is now a Shade, some have begun to refer to her as ‘The Grey Lady’, especially when telling the tale of her defilement.

WIP 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Large Weapon: Staff | Medium Weapon: Magic | Small Weapon: Daggers</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Honoria has a Staff named Remembrance, which was made of Young Bark’s charred remains as a gift of condolence. Though the gift giver meant well, it was not a gift she happily accepted for what should have been obvious reasons. While it is a bitter reminder of what happened, a part of her is slightly grateful to have a part of Young Bark close to her. It is a moderately powerful staff, and is especially potent at helping her channel dark magic due to the connection between them. The staff itself looks like a long charred piece of wood that has been heavily mangled at one end. Despite its appearance however, the staff’s creator took care to make it sturdier; although it would still be broken in two by most swords. 

Honoria also has a small decorate silver dagger that she wears on her belt. It is adorned with swirling patterns and was clearly intended to be an ornament rather than a weapon. Still, it certainly does the job when needed.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Honoria has only recently become a shade and so is still trying to relearn magic. Rather than relearning light magic however, she appears to only be able to practice dark magic. She believes this is because her connection to nature has been lost, although some of the High Priests assure her this is not the case and that she just needs to give it time. Unfortunately for the Red Legion, she does seem to be picking up Dark Magic rather quickly, thanks to her utter lust for vengeance and her staff. Most of her abilities are courtesy of her race or use empathy on some level. Her abilities include:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Her ability to grow roots around herself could be considered a magic ability in itself, although it is hardly a game changer (not since becoming a shade anyway). The roots do provide some very mild protection, but certainly not enough to stop a decent thrust. It does help her grip things with her hands and feet, meaning she has more balance. It is now used more for modesty's sake than anything else.</li><li>Her singing, as a Dryad, could also be considered a magical ability as it helps nearby wildlife grow. This is nowhere near as potent as it was now that she's a shade, but she has managed to alter this ability slightly through Dark Magic: By singing with certain emotions she can conjure certain emotions in others (but they have to be fairly weak willed and even then it's only a mild effect).</li><li>How to cast chain lightning. This requires her to conjure strong feelings of wrath and anger. This is much harder to control than the light magic counterpart, but can be more devastating. If her feelings are not strong enough then she may only generate a small shock at best. However if her feelings are too strong then she will be unable to direct the lightning or will loose control of the Dark Magic completely (until she rests).</li><li>By remembering the torment she went through and the emotions she felt, she is able to inflict a similar pain onto others. That is to say that she is able to make them feeling as if they are wrapped in burning chains, leaving them in pain and restricting their movement. This is only possible because of the severity of the memory, and it requires a very great amount of strength and concentration to work. As such, she is only able to cast it on a single target and normally finds herself having to rest afterwards before using any more magic.</li><li>She also has the ability to control and see through the eyes of Colubra (her companion) but this leaves her own body vulnerable. This ability is fairly easy for her to use but she has to be within a certain range to maintain this.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Like all Dryads, she is vulnerable to fire and Cold Iron, and is not very physically strong. As a shade she is also not as magically powerful as she once was and is somewhat more cut off from nature. At just the sight of fire she becomes emotional, filled with feelings of both fear and utter anger. As a new practitioner of Dark Magic she can lose control of her magic and suffer some negative effects due to her temper flaring out of her control. Socially she has become an outcast at almost every turn, meaning that she cannot rely on others as well as most. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Honoria has a companion named Colubra (pronounced Col-oo-bra), a massive shadow-snake that lived with her atop of Young Bark. Colubra resembles a giant anaconda and its skin is currently black with streaks of varying shades of green. She is currently around 5.5m long and is <a href=""http://www.channelguidemagblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Eaten-Alive_web.jpg"">fairly thick</a>. As a shadow-snake she gradually changes her skin colour to blend in with her surroundings. This is hardly a quick process and its effectiveness varies depending on her movement and on how much the colours in her environment are shifting. She can also only do this once per skin-shed, which in itself is a long process. She is poisonous, but only mildly so; her bites are likely to leave you feverish and weak but will only kill you when combined with other afflictions. She relies more on biting and restriction than she does poison. 

In terms of personality Colubra is perhaps what one would expect from a giant shadow-snake: she’s a sneaky, vicious b****. However she is extremely loyal to Honoria and will glad put herself in harm’s way to protect her. She has been trained not to attack sentient beings unless in defense or when commanded. 

Honoria has recently gained the ability to see through Colubra’s eyes and control her. They have to be within a certain range for this to work. Surprisingly, Colubra is either unaware of this or simply doesn’t appear to mind.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 61
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Centaur
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Nomadic</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span>
Kuruk stands at an impressive 7ft tall and weighs around two thousand pounds, making him a giant even amongst his kin. He is very strong and heavy set, with large defined muscles that seem ridiculously big when compared to a human or elf. His skin is very dark and is almost as dark as the jet black hair that covers most of his body. He has a strong square face with clearly chiseled features, although it’s fair to say that in this case it makes him look more brutish than handsome. He has a messy set of hair that he never allows to stretch further down than his shoulders, and which extends into an equally messy beard. His entire body is covered in scars, with many being superficial. His most prominent scars include one that stretches from his left shoulder down to his right nipple, a long bald scar on his hide that stretches down his back left outer thigh, and a scar that runs from his hairline to his eyebrow. His voice is low, loud, and coarse and has a sinister ring to it. Due to his nomadic lifestyle and his estrangement from his clan, Kuruk has no easily identifiable accent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> He wears a gladiatorial style helmet made of steel, which he adorns with streaks of blood for no apparent reason. He wears chain-mail armour that drapes back to cover a fair section of his lower half, and which is supplemented by leather shoulders and arms. He would like to buy better armour, but his current armour alone cost him a bomb because it had to be specially made and tailored. He has recently had his horse shoes replaced, an event neither he nor the fitter enjoyed. He wears a large leather belt over his mail which has various sized pouches. He only carries what he needs. 

His helmet is based off <a href=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/71/7a/b6/717ab629bd4a2740057e62d8c960fd31.jpg"">this</a>. And his armour of a mixture of <a href=""http://ironwindmetals.com/store/images/fantasy/DF-726.JPG"">this</a> and <a href=""http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/333/0/3/brown_leather_armor_by_vofffka-d5mjrah.jpg"">this</a>.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Kuruk is a combination of some of the worst traits a person can have; he’s short tempered, arrogant, stubborn, vicious and pretty stupid for the most part. He has a raging blood-lust that might be considered psychopathic were it not for the odd bout of sympathy or lust. He has little time for loyalty, though he has the audacity to expect it from others. He has never lost his sense of entitlement and will take whatever he thinks he deserves. Overall, he’s just a nasty p**** that most should stay clear of. Two of his few redeeming features include the fact that not only does he not discriminate against any race, but he is also angered by slavery and has often worked to free slaves for cheap pay. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> He lives for three things: Fighting, drinking, and having sex. The last of which is a rather nightmarish sight to behold. He has little time for anything else unless it can help him achieve the first three things. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Besides being a fighter, Kuruk is a very good drinker. He is good at manual labour, but anything that requires him to rub a few brain cells together is probably going to leave him stumped.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
Kuruk was the first born son of Beodrum the Brave, Alpha of the Numidian Herd. The herd was, and still is, one of the largest and most powerful centaur herds in the known lands. His father was also gifted with a titanic body but had a sharp mind to accompany it, making him a powerful entity. Kuruk was therefore brought up in his father’s shadow and was made to believe that one day he would rise to become the herd’s alpha. As a result he spent the first 25 years of his life growing into a fine warrior, though that’s about all. Even from a young age it was clear that he lacked his father’s mind and in fact was rather dim and odd. However his younger brother, Yao Guai, actually seemed to surpass their father’s intellect if anything. 

When Beodrum eventually passed away the herd followed Centaur custom and held a series of duals to determine who would be the next Alpha. Kuruk cleaved through the competition until he came across his final opponent. Much to his shock, his younger brother had also decided to fight for the title and clearly seemed to have the crowds favour. Kuruk thought the fight would be a breeze, but he was terribly mistaken. Not only did Yao Guai best him in speed and agility, but he had also spent years studying Kuruk and his fighting style. Kuruk wasn’t just beaten, he was humiliated. Yao Guai did not rush to beat his brother and spent time showboating to the crowd, who clearly had expected the spectacle (much to Kuruk’s confusion). When the fight eventually drew to a close Kuruk was forced to the floor and was told to grovel at the new Alpha’s feet. Yao Guai did not want to kill his brother, but he did want to make it abundantly clear who was in charge. Kuruk was too full or pride and anger though, and he would not submit. Instead he took out his brother’s legs and fled, incurring the herd’s anger. A few chased after him and one Centaur even managed to hit Kuruk with a spear, but fortunately they quickly gave up the chase having thought he would be too stupid to survive on his own. 

For a few years he wandered aimlessly about and only survived by robbing the odd unfortunate traveler, until he had a rather juicy bounty on his head that is. As it would turn out, one of the many people he had robbed was actually a rather wealthy nobleman and slaver, a man by the name of Vasilly. This resulted in Kuruk being captured and made a slave himself. He was taken to a mining town and was forced to do various tasks, from dragging around ores to working a horse mill. He spent nine years a slave in Shimmerock at the mercy of Vasilly and his friends. In that time he befriended both Icemen and Minotaurs, realising that at their cores these strangers were not so different. He even had his way with some of the female Minotaurs when the guards were not around. 

It was not long after his 38th birthday that he was pulled from his normal duties to undertake a rather unusual task. Due to an attempted escape attempt by a few icemen the previous night, Vasilly found himself with a bunch of dead horses and a wagon that was unable to pull itself. Vasilly therefore given the option of going to trade with one less wagon full of ore, or to have Kuruk pull a wagon beside his own steed. His greed quickly made up his mind for him. That said, Vasilly was not foolish and so sacrificed some of his load in order to accommodate a few extra guards. The expedition was agonisingly long and took the convoy all the way south to Olenport, the blackmarket port city of Talbor. Unfortunately for Vasilly however, he did live long enough to set his eyes upon the rich assortment of market stools or the deep blue sea. It was as they approached the city that Kuruk finally found his chance at freedom, for the convoy was forced along a rocky bank. Unwilling to live another day as a slave, Kuruk charged down the slope with Vasilly’s wagon right behind him. In a feat of utter insanity Kuruk managed to break free of the carriage by jumping over a pile of rocks which the carriage then buckled against and shattered with the speed. He was not completely uninjured, but was still together enough to recover his master and drag him into the nearby forest. A small manhunt did eventually pursue him but all they ever found were Vasilly’s various limbs scattered around.

After this Kuruk fled into the south and spent the next few decades working as a mercenary, having learned from other slaves that such a business promised both blood and gold. He worked with various groups and individuals, and at one point even led his own ragtag company of Orcs, Saurians and Doraks. He eventually began to specialise in slave rescues and other messy operations. Over the last few years he has begun to venture North again, but really he just goes where the work takes him. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Both his parents have been dead for decades. His only other family is Yao Guai, the Alpha of the Numidian Herd, whom he hates and has not seen in more than thirty years. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
WIP 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Large Weapons: Warhammer | Medium Weapon: Whip | Small Weapon: Medicine</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Kuruk is rarely seen without a Warhammer in his hand. He currently uses a heavy steel mace that would be too heavy for most to use. In fact the smith that made the weapon forged it to be a showpiece, thus the neat engravings of chains and skulls. Due to its weight it is not the easiest thing to handle, but in Kuruk’s strong hands can be swung with devastating force, made worse by the spikes that adorn it. Even if someone was to get caught with the staff part of it they would suffer severely. He tends to use both his hands when using it, but can alternate between either of his hands for a weaker one handed swing. It looks a lot like <a href=""http://images.wikia.com/pjdf/images/2/2f/Warhammer_render.jpg"">this</a> but bigger and thicker. 

Kuruk also carries with him his former master’s whip. A nasty little thing with multiple metal tipped lashes. He rarely uses it in battle, and instead saves it for whenever he gets the opportunity to go head to head with a slaver. He keeps this on his belt.

Lastly, Kuruk is currently carrying 3 small vials of ‘Stone Blood’ and 2 bottles of weak health poultice. Stone Blood grants its consumer a much higher pain threshold, but arguably to a risky extent. It should be noted that whilst the consumer may <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span>less pain, the amount of damage they take is no different. The Health Poultices (which are called something stupid too) are applied to wounds to relieve inflammation, prevent infection, and aid in the healing process.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Kuruk relies purely on sheer strength and power, and to be fair, it has served him fairly well the majority of the time. Whilst he might not be as fast or agile as other centaurs due to his bulkiness, he makes up for it in endurance. He is good at leading a charge due to his confidence and presence, but to call him a good leader in general would mean that you have failed to see his stupidity and rashness.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Like all centaurs, Kuruk is weak to cold iron and his legs provide four easy weak points. Due to his bulkiness he finds it particularly hard to protect his back end, and so you are likely to see him spinning about wildly during battle in a dizzy attempt to combat this. He is easily outsmarted, but one should be cautious when trying to take advantage of him. He really is the perfect archetype of a dim-witted brute.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Though not really a companion per se, there is currently a chocolate <span class=""bb-s"">flavoured</span> coloured wing lemur stalking him. It is a small thing that looks like an earth lemur but with larger ears, larger eyes and has furry parachute like wings beneath its arms. It has a habit of randomly appearing to steal Kuruks food just as he’s about to eat it. It also appears to be relatively clever, having learned to sit on a particular spot on Kuruks hide which he can never reach (with angers him to no end). Kuruk has not named the fiend and will often go berserk in an attempt to catch and crush it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Bartleby is a 6 foot 1 tall male with Caucasian white skin, green eyes with dark bags under his eyes, ginger swept back hair and a soul patch beard. He supports a skinny, non athletic build and is missing a single front tooth.  He has a high pitched and generally whiny tone of voice, (something along the lines of Yuri Lowenthal), and walks very carefree, with a spring in his step.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Bartleby wears a set of jet black nobleman shoes, and a set of black scale skin leggings wrapped with jet black belts. (All the cool kids are doing it, in Bartleby's defense). Supporting a white frilled shirt, a blue and gold trimmed noblemans vest and a golden cravat and a jet black cloak. To top it all off, he wears an eccentric jet black musketeer styled hat, with a blue feather lodged at the side. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>  Bartleby is a very selfish and greedy individual, but isn't evil. He'll take whatever he can find and get, having a problem due to being a klepto. He finds himself always attempting to get the best offer out of a situation and will do what is necessary to save himself. Which usually involves running away. He is a coward and a liar, and will always try and bluff himself out of a situation. Bartleby is also a freeloader and a moocher but he generally desires the destruction of the red legion... He'll just try and offer... mortal support... if he can't help it! He can be kind, thoughtful and understanding, but when it comes to survival, he will either run off or demand safety.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Bartleby finds enjoyment in drinking, reading and enjoys ""collecting"" things from everywhere he goes, always having some sort of new item after each place he visits, he likes to call it a hobby. He also enjoys brothels, silence and not being bothered. He also enjoys getting free stuff! 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Bartleby's main skills lie in his non combat standpoint. He is great at lying and playing the poker faced expression, giving him excellent negotiating skills, being able to bribe or weasel his way into many establishments.

Bartleby also has the ability to forge new identities and can help hide his allies whereabouts with false Intel, giving them a good amount of time to escape from a bad situation if it comes to it. 
With being a cheating, lying and selfish prat, he also has the ability to lie straight through his teeth with ""charm"", allowing him to persuade others for information and get Intel for the group that others might not be able to get. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 

Bartleby, who had no name at the time, but would later on gain one grew up like many humans within Talbor, as a child he was adopted and raised by a merchant family, though the memories were vague, the only way to describe it was that Bartleby was chosen to be raised merely to help whatever business his adopted parents owned, to help their little scheme flourish therefore as a young boy, Bartleby was raised to be a liar, to cheat and to steal, to use others for personal gain and to never betray his parents. As a child all this information was confusing for the young boy, as he was privately tutored by an arrogant and rough teacher, never even getting to know other children, he was forcibly and abusively banned from interacting with anyone his young age, and grew up in an isolated environment where only his parents could ""teach"" him about what mattered. 

Growing up to learn history, merchandising skills, thievery and much more, along the lines of language and culture, but only to exploit, they had a child they could raise as their own little money maker, and had it not been for their ""accidental"" deaths, it would have continued that way.

Fortunately however, when you become too much of an ass in life, life does you straight in it, and that happened smoothly by the time of Bartleby's eleventh birthday. Simply doing his parents chores and being taught the values of ""merchandising"", a group of armed men broke into the home and slew both his adoptive mother and father, causing the young child to fail to process what just happened, he never had any love for them, as they showed no love back, but the incident left him almost scarred, when the armed men approached him, it had come to his attention that his parents were in fact scum, nothing but dirty thieves and con artists who seeked to con every single individual out of their gold, and was a potential"" threat"". With nobody else to take care of him, the armed man agree'd to bring him to a much more ""profitable business"" And that's how Bartleby was first introduced to the life of the stereotypical criminal underground. 

Raised by his new father, named Daniels, a short, black haired tanned male with a talent for crossbows, he acted more like a father than his older parents ever could. Raising him in the criminal underground, and with his thievery and merchandising skills, his new father Daniels raised him on how to lie properly, and taught him the use of his weapon, however Bartleby wasn't a very brave child, and always simply put on a brave face to fool the people around him, skipping any boring and trivial details, Bartleby continued how to use a crossbow, was taught how to lie and cheat and got taught how to trade much more effectively, and with his effort and his adopted father, the two were able to make quite a small fortune in the black market and with their thievery, selling and conning, the two were impressive at their jobs, and ran this for 9 years until Bartleby was twenty years old... and able to outsmart his own father... and meet an individual which would stay in his life for better or more realistically for worse for the rest of his life. 

Shortly after the black market business had flourished, and after 9 long years, Bartleby became over such a long time very skilled with using the crossbow and a skillful negotiator, and with these skills and a business partner none the wiser, along with bartleby's own kleptomaniac tendencies which grew over the course of his life of crime, in one single day, and with his adoptive fathers back turned, he killed him... If he was brave and cruel enough, no instead he simple snagged a key to the groups savings and bolted as fast as his legs out carry him with the mass of funds, however it didn't take long for the black market to catch onto his scheme, as he fled with thick bags of gold and hot stolen items all within a giant rucksack, he barely escaped with his life, used his skills to acquire himself with the gold he bought a new outfit, to mask his old appearance and get himself under a new name, or alias. His original name is unknown, and is known only as Bartleby Sterling, the original name given to him is not even known to himself, having never had a name giving to him by either his newer father of his adoptive parents back when he was a child. 

Hidden away within an abandoned basement at a corner street within Talbor, Bartleby investigated the contents of the stolen goods and money, enough money to keep him fed for years and within the stolen rucksack of valuables were gems, hot stolen gems fresh for selling and another items curiously popped itself out of the bag... a small, chubby looking Siamese kitten poked its little head out and stared cutely at Bartleby, the conman and merchant coward not knowing just how much agony the cat would bring to him, Bartleby decided to take the cat in, and raise it himself as the two quickly and using bartleby's talents, sold the hot merchandise for a thick profit before fleeing and escaping the criminal clutches of the underground, deciding to use his fine money to start a new life.

Now at age 23, Bartleby has been able to quickly amass his wealth, shown through his very eccentric and interesting attire to look as flashy as possible along with his fat, round cat sucking up every gold piece he had at the same time, now he is starting to feel the pressure of his fortune draining no help to his cat, his conning, thievery and merchant skills having only gotten him so far, if he didn't try and get better merchandise, he was going to start losing money and eventually go poor. Bartleby decided. ""The red legion... such powerful weapons... If perchance I was able to steal some of that technology and pretend I was on a major quest to save everyone... I could probably get my riches back again.!"" And with this foolish plan, Bartleby would find himself going up against forces which were vastly superior in skill to him, in a mission he would refer to as his greatest and most biggest cock up.

Medicine: Potions, healing ones, hidden under his cloak, it contains 3 healing potions and a poison cure. 

 <span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
Crossbow training: Despite being overly pathetic in almost all areas, Bartleby finds himself safest when he is as far away from his opponent as possible... Which is why as a child he got trained how to use a crossbow! And he loves his Big Beatrix! However this is probably one of his only known skills, his expert ability with crossbows gives him a great perceptive insight on how to fire upon an enemy with it, and with this skill he is able to execute his foes from a huge distance.
 
Explosives: Make things explode and then RUN. How does Bartleby handle himself if he's out of crossbow bolts and an angry red legion man is coming at him with murder in his eyes... Aside from urinating himself, Bartleby has the ability to use elemental explosives, thanks to his connections and secret buyers, he has amassed and is skilled in using these bombs to his advantage. 

Running away: Ah yes, one of his many great and ferocious talents is that he can run away like a sissy girl at a speed of something pretty fast if it was getting chased by a lion. Using his ability to be unpredictable, one of his many fine traits is creating a distraction big enough to let himself escape the area in the hopes of being able to out maneuver and escape his foes so he may live to fight another day.

A cat who's main desire is eating, and sleeping, and meowing, and repeating... Though it does make for some good laughs when it annoys Bartleby to the point of frustration, it is his only true friend though, and he loves shin dearly, and hates the every lasting guts out of the monstrous fatass at the same time...

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Ogre
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Concordius

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Heoron is on the short side for his race, standing just under six feet with a lanky yet trim and toned frame thanks to his orc lineage. His skin is a slightly darker grey-blue color than what is average for his race. His sharp eyes stand out from his skin, blazing as a yellow-orange color under his thin, arched eyebrows. Pointed ears, the left one being adorned with a small hoop-shaped brass earring halfway up the ear, inherited from his father can be seen poking through his silver-colored hair that hangs down to barely brush the tops of his shoulders, and he will at times tie it back in a horsetail or braid it to make it more manageable. Heoron has very pointed and angular features with high cheekbones and a long, pointed chin due to his father’s elven features being more dominant than his mother’s, though some of her orcish traits can be seen in her son, one such being the slightly elongated lower canine teeth.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Heoron wears a light-colored linen shirt with long sleeves with a small v-neck opening held together with leather strings laced through small holes on either side of the opening, dark trousers with a few patches sewn on here and there, and tall boots stretching halfway up his shins. Over his clothes, Heoron wears thick robes made of a soft material dyed a faded black with a dark yellow trim; the neck of the robes can be pulled up to cover the lower half of his face. His cloak is dyed the same color as his robes with the same trim around the hood with a brass button to keep the cloak on.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> On the surface, Heoron appears to be a calm and almost unemotional man. If one could see the inner workings of his mine, however, they would know his mind is a constant buzz, keeping his emotions in check so he can better call upon these emotions at a later time to utilize his magic more effectively. Because of this, Heoron also seems cold and distant to anyone around him. The ability to keep his emotions in check makes him an even-tempered person, leading to him being a calm and collected individual in most situations. Of course, this does not completely excuse him from the pull of emotions at times; it only means he is much better at controlling his emotions than most people.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Heoron’s main hobby is reading the journal left behind by his surrogate father and any other book he can get ahold of. He also spends his time studying the history of the different kingdoms and attempting to track down any information he can about his parents.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Heoron has become skilled in Dark Magic, focusing more on the illusion aspects. Because of his magical abilities, Heoron is able to keep his emotions in check most of the time, separate and identify them and then draw upon them at a later date to power his magic, and in turn because of his ability to keep his emotions in check Heoron is able to remain calm in most situations others would panic during and think his way out if possible. He is also light footed and can walk with little to no noise, using his magic to mask his presence and blend into the shadows in combination with this skill in order to sneak his way through the world. Years of study have made Heoron into a knowledgeable historian and an expert on what is known about Cyclops culture and history. The obsession with his parents and hunting any lead he could find about them has made Heoron into a formidable tracker and detective of sorts; he is able to gather quite a bit of clues on someone and then track them down quickly based on what he gathers about them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Heoron was born to a male elf named Artuous and a female orc named Gretsia, but Heoron remembers nothing about them as they died when he was barely two years old. When they died, Heoron was taken in by a human named Wilem; he raised Heoron as best as he could. When Heoron was seven, Wilem began teaching him Dark Magic. Wilem lived in a small cabin in the forest and chose to train his adopted son here to prevent him from causing any damage to others or the nearby village since he could not yet control his magic with his emotions being so erratic as such a young age. 

In the forests of his homeland, Heoron once came across the Will-o-Wisps one night. Being a child of barely eight, Heoron ran at the glowing orbs of blue fire, sending most of the orbs scattering into the night, but there was one that did not scatter at the sight of the boy. The Will-o-Wisp was strange, it spoke to the child and had a name. This strangeness in the magical being led to the two becoming friends and companions.

Because he did not have a strong hold of his emotions at first, Heoron came very near to dying and losing his magic permanently when he lost control in a fit of rage, injuring Wilem in the process. This episode happened when he was ten, and after it occurred Heoron refused to use magic after he saw what he had done to Wilem when he lost control. The two were training on a cliffside, Wilem thinking the sight and sound of the ocean would keep the boy calm, but for some reason the child couldn’t shake the thought of his parents that day and flew into a fit of rage and sorrow at their passing, sending a violent torrent of energy all around, burning Wilem badly enough to scar and wound but not fatally. After a year of coaxing after the accident, Wilem finally convinced Heoron to take up learning magic again.

The child, now age eleven, took to learning how to master his emotions with a new zeal, pouring over texts and hanging on to Wilem’s every word. Heoron trained under his surrogate father for ten more years after he began anew. In learning Dark Magic, Heoron was first taught how to control and identify his emotions to control his magic and then he began learning how to turn his emotions into magical energy. Throughout these years of training, Wilem also taught Heoron how to fight with a dirk.

All the while through his training, Heoron couldn’t shake the nagging feeling at the back of his head to learn more about his parents, so Wilem promised to help Heoron track down any information he could on his parents. After his training was complete, Heoron stayed with Wilem for a year until his adoptive father died of disease, which had been worsening steadily throughout Heoron’s training. In his death, Wilem left Heoron his journal with a list of names and few details on his parents. With his newly gained knowledge on his parents, Heoron has recently set out, now twenty-two to find the other members in the group of treasure hunters they belonged to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-u"">Staff:</span> Heoron uses his wooden staff to channel his magic. The staff itself comes to Heron’s shoulder and is made of an old dark wood. The staff looks as though it is made of multiple thick branches twisting around one another, ending with the top sloping up in two places like small wooden waves; this opening is usually occupied by Ithenul, making the staff look like it has a blue orb floating between the two small wooden slopes.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Magic:</span> Heoron is a practiced user of Dark Magic, focusing more on the illusionary skills within this field of magic.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Dirk:</span> Heoron keeps a dirk with a blade measuring one and a half feet strapped to his waist.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Dagger:</span> Heoron also carries a silver dagger hidden away in a sheath built into the back of his left boot.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> In a fight, Heoron is most skilled in close quarters combat, using his illusion magic to distract and confuse his enemies and then closing in to dispatch them. He is also skilled in the other aspects of Dark Magic. Despite his race’s natural slowness Heoron is able to dodge around and parry enemy blows, the former aided from his illusion magic. His main advantage comes from ambush attacks, using his magic to hide his presence and then getting the drop on his enemies.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Heoron’s poor eyesight prevents him from engaging in any long range combat and forces him to get close to his enemies in a fight. In a straight fight, Heoron, while not completely useless, will not last too long before he needs to flee. Of course being slow hinders his escape skills. Without his staff and his magical capabilities, Heoron is significantly hindered in his combat abilities, being much slower in blocking and parrying.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Heoron’s sole companion is his familiar, a Will-o-Wisp called Ithenul. He also owns a dark chestnut-colored horse, but he does not count it as a companion since he cannot have conversations with the animal.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 41
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Orc
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of origin:</span> Jikari

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Standing above the rest at 6'8 people began confusing Tobias for his father from an early age, Lukas Fischer already stood a head taller than the other orcs that lived in Blackstone bay and his son was quickly catching up. For the past year it's become a necessity for Tobias to duck when entering the houses that littered the bayfront, Tobias couldn't complain though - his long arms and slim body meant he could climb the masts faster than anyone else; even the stronger, bulkier, older boys that would loiter around the harbour couldn't beat Toby to the top - not even if they wagered a few copper coins on it. A fishing accident had left a deep scar running from the bottom of his left ear to the left side of his mouth, he has dark, piercing blue eyes and a jaunt face with defined features. His hair is silky black with dark brown streaks in colour, he leaves it grow wildly only occasionally styling it for special occasions. Despite being taller than most orcs Tobias would regularly lose battles of pure strength, arm wrestling and barrel throwing was to be avoided against the muscle-bound, bruiser types that roam the bay however years of hard work on the boats have given Tobias a lean, toned physique with decent enough power and body strength to prove troublesome to the pirate raiders that whilst infrequently encountered, are quick to shed the blood of any race if it meant a shiny prize or a purse full of coins.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Tobias usually wears loose, linen shirts of the varying dull colours that are accessible at Blackstone beneath the thin, boar-hide, tribal jacket/waistcoat that keeps him safe during skirmishes with the raiders. He also wears puffy pants that are taped tightly around the ankle so that the bottoms fold to hang over the tough, grippy boots that Tobias preferred to wear around the ship. Tobias rarely felt the need to change clothes often wearing the same garments for weeks at a time, jumping in the sea seemed to stop them from smelling like anything other than sea-salt and Tobias loves that smell.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Tobias is very curious of the world around him, he knows that a huge world exists but has never really left Blackstone bay to explore it. However he often dreams and speaks of adventuring one day, but moans that their isn't an easy enough reason to just up and leave. He's often opinionated but ultimately wishes to prove that there's more to orcs than meets the eye with his caring, loyal and compassionate nature. He's keen to learn and despite being rather intelligent acknowledges that he's got a lot to learn before he becomes the Orc he aspires to be. He will avoid confrontation when he can but ain't afraid to come out swinging once he's backed into a corner.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Fishing, gambling around the dock and searching the seabed for valuables.
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tobias was taught to fish by his father: Lukas, who is widely regarded as one of the most skilled in his profession, tales are told around the bay how he took a group of fishermen out to sea on the darkest, coldest night of winter when the food had run scarce and the people were starving, they thought him dead but three days later the veteran returned with plentiful enough fish to last the next two winters. Tobias has also developed a good idea of game theory and if there's a clever bet to be made he'll be the first one to make it. Tobias has a basic understanding of alchemy that he learned from an old, tatty diary written by his mother, he treasures the diary more than anything else in the world and a lot of the pages he can not understand.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Born in the mostly quiet fishing village of Blackstone bay Tobias Fischer was far away from the complexities and worries that a lot of people in Tithe face. That's not to say life was easy for Tobias, he only knew his mother until the age of sixteen when she was taken by a rival tribe (not sure how much backstory you wanted to do on the orcs but I recall you said there were different tribes, also she was a shamanistic, witch-doctor killed in a brutal fashion but Tobias' father has made it his mission to ensure Tobias never finds out), Lukas was far away in Haderlock at the time collecting bounties placed on a few of the pesky rebel groups that would consistently wreak havoc in the region and couldn't do anything to stop what happened. Luckily on the night of the raid young Toby was whisked away quickly from the madness that ensued by a family friend who in turn handed him over to the Lukkleberg family who generously looked after him until Lukas returned. Tobias never saw the man who saved him again after that.
Tobias worked on his father's fishing boat and made good friends with a lot of the older orcs who made it a habit of calling him 'Long Toby'. One of them, Klaus Skuller, greatly admired Toby from a young age and ensured that he had a sea-worthy vessel of his own for his thirtieth birthday.  Tobias decided to call his boat 'Lucky Peace' - he couldn't decide whether he wanted to wish for luck or peace and eventually just stuck the two together, happy with his result. Tobias would work hard selling what he could to pay back the debt for the boat, Klaus politely declined the return payments but Tobias kept a lockbox beneath his bed which was slowly filling enough to afford the boat's materials.
In Lucky Peace Tobias would work for just over ten years; three years along the coast where the water was easy to traverse, and the rest in the harsher, deeper seas wherein exotic catches could fetch months of wage for the crew, yet wherever Lucky Peace went the crew would work hard to keep up with the more experienced fishermen and their oft larger, better equipped rigs. It's only been for the past few years though that Tobias has consistently larger yields than the rest but watching the hundreds of fish pour onto the deck was beginning to take it's toll and the days where he'd intensely scan how many fish were caught were replaced with days of gazing into the sunset or the mountains up north. Gargoyles lived in those mountains and Tobias had never even seen one...

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Lukas Fischer - proud father who wants his son to have the adventure filled life that he lead, dealt with his wife's death by putting a lot of time and effort into bringing up Tobias.
Miri Fischer - mother who was killed when Tobias was young, locally held in very high regard. People often tell Tobias that he has his mother's eyes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Klaus Skuller | Boisterous | Family friend (uncle figure) : 'Long Toby? Aye the kid's a good laugh he'll grow to be a great Orc like his father, lord knows he's big enough.'
Adran Lukkleberg | Hard-working, Shy | Best friend : 'He showed me kindness when I felt worthless, the guy gave me a job and introduced me to Starla, I'd do a lot for him, I know I would; I owe it to him'

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> Tobias usually fights with a basic bone scimitar although has begun to practise using a two-bladed elven sword he found whilst scavenging the sea bed. (Unless he meets someone proficient with the weapon he'll use an improvised orcish fighting style with an elven blade. I want him to be an awkward enemy as opposed to an overly strong or magically gifted enemy.)
He also is proficient at using a bone, bladed boomerang after years of launching it out over the waves only to have to swim out and retrieve it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tobias is sure-footed and has incredible balancing and acrobatic ability for his size. He is capable of crafting basic potions mainly specialising those that harbour resistance and healing powers (superficial wounds, sea-sickness remedies, lesser poison resistance potions... Basically nothing too powerful I just want him to inherit that small amount of raw magical ability demonstrated by his mother). He's also incredibly quick to learn and his fascination of the unexplained and eagerness to explore has earned him a reputation of being a fearless (sometimes even reckless) young orc that would excel in a naval combat scenario.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Despite being tall and fit Tobias isn't as strong as you'd expect for an orc (I want to balance out his swiftness and range with the lack of brute strength an ordinary orc might possess, so he's still stronger than the average human but can't perform great feats of strength). He's also very naive and is too quick to see the kindness in people, he has good principles and values and expects others to behave and think in a similar way. He's quick to learn but avoids battles of wits with the more educated citizens of the bay and the politicians - as his father once said 'if the Fischer's were as good at words as we are at fishing the world would be a nicer place'.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>29
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female 
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Mountain Elf
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of origin:</span> Southern Nepharie 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Adelaide's the first to acknowledge that she'll be the last of Senator del Monte's brood to marry. An older sister with mother's hazel eyes; Asta had legs that never seem to end, full lips that would demand the gaze of even the meekest of men and beautiful, flowing blonde hair. Then there's Ciara, two years younger and ten years shorter but with the bust of someone twice her age! Adelaide never could figure out how such a thin waist could support knockers that size and for every gaze that Asta's lips caught you could guarantee Ciara would get ten more. A cute, rounded little nose rested between the most beaming smile and a set of bright, inviting blue eyes that were always wide open and gave Ciara a look of unparalleled innocence. Then there was Adelaide...
Adelaide; awkwardly in the middle. Not the tallest and not the shortest she seemed to be the only one of the three del Monte girl's to inherit more of her father's ordinary genes. Dark, solid brown eyes and a rounded, plain face with the exception of a few unevenly dispersed freckles. Adelaide thought she looked more like Ciara than Asta but never seemed to get the same attention as her younger sibling. Maybe it was because where Ciara's mass was in all the right places Adelaide's was in all the worst - a thick neck, burly shoulders and wide hips spawning large thighs and equally as impressive calves often left Adelaide feeling grateful for at least being thin at the waist and even then if she'd sit around for a week even that <span class=""bb-i"">hourglass figure</span> (or so she consoled herself) would begin to fade. Adelaide was never as keen to spend hours getting her hair cut and styled as her sisters and often just let her hair grow and grow regularly finding new ways to fashion the chestnut brown locks into something grandiose and feminine.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> When going to important events and gatherings Adelaide wears a varying assortment of dresses and gowns in a multitude of colours. For even though she resents having her hair done and beauty therapy she must confess that she enjoys getting all dressed up and putting on some jewels for the right occasion. Adelaide isn't too afraid of showing a little skin either - when she's out running errands around the mountains she trades a rather sensible, formal style for that of a flamboyant, very informal style that displays a wild side neither of her sisters possess. A beautiful, flowing one-piece swapped out for a leopard-skin skirt with the sides torn for mobility, her top half is always well protected with a well-fitted, dragon hide cuirass, dark maroon in colour and interwoven with tanned, tough leather of a lightly tanned colour. The cuirass was a gift from a wealthy politician over in the tropics, Adelaide's father told her that the man expressed a desire to marry her even though they've never met and promptly gave the man her measurements, after-all dragon hide was hard to acquire and Pierro del Monte never looked a gift horse in the mouth. The guy even refuses to leave his name on the gifts he sends, which Adelaide could never figure out - after all, she couldn't fall in love with a question mark. Adelaide also wears various fur-lined vambraces, boots and gloves depending on what she feels like on the day.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Adelaide's very grounded considering she's always had anything she's ever wanted on a silver spoon. She enjoys adventure and jumps at the chance to run errands for her father, whom she idolises, despite him oft being reluctant to let her go - truth be told these are the only times she doesn't have to act like a <span class=""bb-i"">proper lady</span>. Her down-to-earth attitude, unlimited patience and a willingness to learn has lead to her being well liked and respected amongst peers and teachers alike. 
That's not to say, however, that she's academically gifted (that was always Asta's forte), in fact she never could understand words, numbers or magic very well. While other students would excel at performing fabulous examples of magic Adelaide would protest that if she wanted to make the rocks fly she'd pick 'em up and throw 'em. Even though Adelaide was hopeless at performing magic growing up, like most elves she's fascinated with nature and always takes the time to respect and care for whatever environment she finds herself in.
Growing up with two sisters Adelaide can sometimes have a sharp tongue and doesn't fully understand the possible consequences of nattering about lords and ladies, kings and queens or anything else she finds remotely interesting to talk about. She doesn't like to be alone and regularly looks for reasons to be around people.
Despite not being noticeably good at anything Adelaide feels as though she was meant for something bigger than just an ordinary life living in the mountains, marrying a senator and then playing happy for the world to see.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Adelaide enjoys nothing more than being out in nature and for each thing she didn't know about magic she could teach you two about her environment - mainly the mountains. When the giant ramp Castle Alma is sealed tight it can begin to feel like a cold, lonely place (especially since Ciara's been spending all of her time studying at Stormfront, just like Asta did and Adelaide rarely sees her older sister anymore). When Adelaide feels sad she enjoys finding old books in the library and reading through them - even though the books could sometimes be confusing to her they were always sure to have illustrious and grand pictures; of animals, beasts, trees, the world. Adelaide remembers the ramp being up for two whole months one time during a particularly fierce sandstorm, she got a lot of reading done in that time and when the storm eased up she could be free once again.
Free meant being outside - running and climbing across the mountains, slipping down the mudslides, swinging and leaping across crevices. Outside is the only time Adelaide ever truly feels herself and she's always ecstatically excited when she knows she gets to go out next. She enjoys tending to animals of any sort and tries her best to keep all the plants in her garden in tip-top condition (yes, father gave his daughter a garden).

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Years of climbing around the mountains has lead to Adelaide being very fit and quite agile considering her almost frumpy frame (kinda like that sexy bitch from the croods). Adelaide's best talent appears to be keeping the animals happy - Volak refuses to get fed by anyone other than her and Pierro. During her ""studying"" at the Grand Tower Adelaide was toughened up a little bit and even got around to trying her hand at combat with some of the younger boys, needless to say she wasn't very good at it. She never completed her time there and eventually went back to the comfort of castle Alma complaining that she didn't feel ready to go out into the world on her own. Her intelligence seems to be at a slightly below average.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Adelaide grew up behind the great stone walls of Castel Alma, a cliff dwelling thats walls were human-built using thousands of hardy, orange rocks that were gathered from miles around. The structure lay discretely on the landscape and was almost invisible to the eye during even the lightest of sandstorms, unless the humongous flat stone that passed as a ramp was lowered but the only entrance to the castle was ALWAYS closed in a storm. The castle is between the centre of Southern Nepharie and the bay of clams, rumour has it that it was the del Monte's ancestors that were responsible for exotic goods of lobster, spices, oysters and mostly; pineapples, flooding into the more populated regions of Tithe and considering the vast wealth of the family lots say that the islanders were exploited by the Del Monte's but that was then and this is now and Pierro's accepted by the local communities of both Nepharie and the Tropics.
Adelaide didn't get accepted to study at Isaiah Stormfront's castle like her sisters, and she was sure Ciara only got invited because Isaiah took a personal liking to Asta, instead she spent a few years trying her hardest to do magic but after a few years found that nobody there understood her and promptly returned home. Other than that the biggest adventure she's been on is a trip to the tropics when she was much younger and even that, one of the few memories she has of her family being together as five, was beginning to fade.
For Adelaide the story begins here...

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Father:</span> Senator Pierro del Monte - Ruler of Castle Alma and Ambassador of peoples within and around its walls - Nothing about Pierro would strike out as making him different from any other senator: Ambitious, proud and servile are just a few words that have been thrown around the courtroom when describing him. Constantly striving to increase his position in the empire he doesn't spend much time with his family, though when he does he appears to be a kind and caring man. Pierro is also capable of taming wild creatures and has an unmatched affinity for the mountains, through his year's he's attempted to tame many beasts with various success - the two that stuck around are 'Volak'; a mangy looking giant vulture with a bad attitude if left unchecked and 'Archibald'; an overweight desert pig (I was thinking desert pigs could be like boars but without the tusks if that could be a thing) who has a young and vigorous spirit despite his weight problem.
<span class=""bb-b"">Mother:</span> Sibelle del Monte - Adelaide's mother is also ambitious, although unlike the rather indecisive, sometimes rash, sometimes collected attitude displayed by her father Sibelle is always politically calculating, perceptive and insightful. She loves her husband and children and would do anything to protect them. She used to be a powerful Mage but vowed never to do magic again after an accident she chooses not to speak of, truth be told she knows that she's lost a lot of her mojo. She doesn't feel it necessary to spend time relearning what she once knew now that she's happy with where her life is.
<span class=""bb-b"">Older Sister:</span> Asta del Monte - A powerful Mage who has decided to continue learning from old books in the academy of Ostracus after completing her studies at Stormfront castle. She specialises in air magic and is particularly interested in spells of concealment using a combination of mists and smokes. 
Younger sister: Ciara del Monte - A promising Mage who is still midway through her studies at Stormfront. She is bubbly, playful, flirty and fascinated with earth magic.
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Same as above. Adelaide is Father's favorite, Mother's least favorite (putting it bluntly) and gets along equally as well with both of her sisters although she's spent more time growing up with Ciara (who's 2 years younger) than Asta (about 30 years older).

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> being rich? 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> If you haven't put the dots together yet you're not too far away from Adelaide's mindset...
With her mother's renown raw magical talent that we know has passed to Adelaide's sisters and her father's fondness of all things living, particularly animals, she has the POTENTIAL to be quite a powerful beast tamer. Quite powerful indeed. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Hates to be alone, clueless about a lot of things, happy-go-lucky attitude that sometimes leads to her not trying too hard to obtain things that she's perfectly capable of, early signs of attention deficit disorder, next to no technical combat ability, sometimes irritating, doesn't compare herself to her sisters maybe as much as she should (especially if you ask her mother).

Sir Tanzanno Fernando.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 
Getting up in his thirties, probably around thirty-seven. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> 
The one with a big donk. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> 
Just a boring Human. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> 
Nepharie, somewhere to the south. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> 
Tanzanno, or Tanz for short, is only just starting to get old. Of course, he's still in his prime, but he's been on the downswing for a while now. His short, angled hair is starting to get a few grayer bits, even more every day. Tanz' eyes and face are starting to show signs of crow's feet and the hollowing of his cheeks. Still, at five foot nine, he certainly has a bit of height over the average man. Don't think you can get the upper hand over him since he's getting old, he'll show any recruit he can still get them behind the ear with one hand behind his back. The many old scars and remnants of wounds certainly can attest to that. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tanzanno"" type=""button"">Tanzanno [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=743696&amp;d=1249497235""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> 
While most knights would prefer to charge into battle wielding full plate armor and hefting swords taller than them, Tanz would do otherwise. He prefers to run in wearing light chainmail, small iron plating, and generally a good chest plate. These combinations allow for Tanz to gracefully dodge and weave while fighting at the sake of less protection. Not like he needs it, anyways.  

Other than that, he prefers to wear a mix of light cloth and linen to stave off the heat of summers in southern Nepharie. You probably won't ever see him without his two weapons clipped to his belt. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Most people would call Tanzanno a cryptic bastard when they first meet him. And they're right, he is a cryptic bastard, preferring to speak in rhymes and riddles and metaphors when teaching his students in the ways of swordplay. If you can make it past the first week, he's a pretty nice person. From the lowest recruit to the stubborn nobleman's son, he'll find a way to help them. 

Years of teaching have instilled a personal sense of responsibility that he takes up on most people he meet. Most of the flair and grace he had during his younger days are gone, replaced by a calm and cool personality. Swordplay is his passion, though, and he is usually automatically interested in anything related to it. That doesn't mean he's a sword freak, he loves politics. Debate and discussion with nobles often fills his schedule. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> 
From swordplay to debate, to even an unhealthy interest in flowers, Tanzanno enjoys lots of things in the coastal hub of Port Orarius. Wines and exotic fruits grown nearby are his favorite things to eat. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
While his career is teaching the art of swordplay, Tanzanno has learned many things along the way. How to deal with nobles for example. There is a certain precise method you have to uphold around their kind, and he's become an expert at it. Debate and discussion is probably second on the list, with many a council influenced by his tacit smooth tongue. Other than that, Tanz has become an addict to the growth of horticulture. For someone first visiting his home, you would be extremely surprised at how he rivals that of a Dryad with his growing. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 
The Fernando family is popularly known throughout most of southern Nepharie. The common folk dream big when hearing of the family's down to earth roots and their rise, the barons and princes from over the land flock to get a chance to be taught by a Fernando. The Fernando family started off simple. Three or four centuries ago, a fairly large family of grape growers had all of their men were drafted off and sent to fight for Nepharie. While most would expect the men to return in a state of dread with many killed and wounded, the Fernando men proved them wrong.

Bravery in the heart of battle and a bond grown while scraping the earth, the men stuck together. While some did indeed die, the majority managed to survive. And with it, their first tastes of sword fighting. The legend stops there, as many details have been lost, and most people only know the general story. 

Tanzanno was born under Marie Charlotte Tencinna and Rondero Fernando, his father being an important general in the Nepharian army and his mother being an important woman under a family of rich land owners. For the most part, he never really saw his mother on the small plantation he lived at for his young life. She had tastes like any other noblewoman, and therefor preferred lounging in castles and on the beaches of southern Nepharie. Being a man under the Fernando family had expectations of you, and once he turned ten years old, he was thrusted into learning swordplay.

As a young man, Tanz caught onto the sword as a carpenter would a hammer. The art came naturally, as it did most of the Fernando family. Their style came not from drilling or swinging a sword the entire day, it came from fierce sparring. The standard Fernando style consists of an adaptation of the common rapier. Thicker and with a keener edge, the estoc mixed the slashing of a longsword with the penetration of fencing. Not only that, but wielded in the offhand is a smaller sword known as an espada, bordering on the line between shortsword and dagger. 

Their original style consists of a rapid flurry of blows meant to stagger the target, while at the same time parrying and blocking with the espada, combining the two to harry an opponent into making mistakes. Tanzanno's skills in the art meant that he could get away with a lot of things, and he did. 

Tanzanna really didn't develop much of a taste for war as his father did. He preferred to stay at his home of Port Orarius, but found a way to do so. Teaching the art was his goal. From lowly soldiers to elite noblemen, he taught them all. While some left in pure stubbornness, most found his skills in teaching others to be the best option. Many southern Nepharian men have been taught and improved their skills in the twenty years or so he has been teaching. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> 
While Tanzanno for the most part rarely knew his mother who so easily left him, he knew his father well. Many an evening would be spent sparring with wooden sticks with his own father, and many an evening spent nursing bruises given by his own father. Being a general made it hard, though. Rondero was often away on campaigns, either solving riots or fighting on distant battlefields.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> 
In standard Fernando style, Tanzanno wields the main weapons of his family. The longsword estoc and the shortsword espada. More often than not, he has found himself in need of a backup weapon of sorts, so Tanzanno keeps a <a href=""http://www.collectarea.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/139.1.jpg"">curved dagger</a> hidden in the small of his back. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
Being a special kind of sword fighter, Tanz is very agile and quick. Attacks focused more on accuracy and speed than pure brute force can often force a person not experienced in aggressive fighting to make mistakes. A relentless attack is the core of every Fernando style, and with the two weapons, it certainly forces a person to go on the defensive. Other than that, Tanz is still strong and fast for his growing age, with a keen sense of reaction drilled from youth. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> 
Being focused on the attack often leaves you exposed. The drawbacks of wearing light armor are pretty obvious, and the lack of a shield increases the chances of getting hit by a projectile. The Ferdinando style, while very effective against people simply hiding behind a shield, has problems when going up against another aggressive style. In such a situation, both sides will likely be injured heavily simply due to the fact that neither are able to properly defend. His slightly larger size also works to disadvantage him. While agile and fast, his stature just works against him on that playing field. 

Also, being of noble birth, Tanz has never really experienced any sort of hard work. Of course, he's not a soft weakling, but he knows nothing of the plights of farming or mining. Nor does he have knowledge over the wilderness. Toss him out into the woods with no equipment and he might just be tempted to chase after squirrels with his sword. Really, the only thing he does well is fighting and debating.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 72
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Orc
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Nepharie

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> A statuesque Orcess. Much like other orcs, Morag-Nog is taller than humans. Standing at a solid 6'4, and weighing 250, her very thick bones add a curvature to her body. Broad shoulders, thick limbs. All accentuated by her thick muscles that are common to all orcs. She's an imposing force, the kind of Orcess you don't want to meet in a dark alley. Or else you might get your balls strung up on a rope. However, plenty of that intimidating factor disappears once she starts talking. That, or they see her choice of clothing. If there was any left, it would be gone by the time someone eyeballs her bad leg and her cane she uses to support herself. Years ago, Morag-Nog had suffered an injury to her leg that had ruined it. While it healed, the damage was so severe that it left some permanent damage. She always walks with a limp, and puts a disproportionate amount of weight on the other leg. If she <span class=""bb-i"">does</span> put too much weight on her bad leg, then it's almost always followed by groans of pain and agony. Now, Morag-Nog has typical orc characteristics. Thick, green, skin. That has been scarred many a times. The most notable scar is the one that is on the knee of her bad leg, and goes down to her ankle. Slashed open by a longsword. There are plenty of other blade scars that aren't as severe, all over her, but I don't feel like describing them all! Her head is diamond shaped, with a very thick and strong jaw. That jaw accents her underbite, two large, razorsharp teeth. With thick, red lips that are of a lighter hue, and a small, triangle-shape and hooked nose. Her eyes are large, and olive color, usually having an annoyed glare to them directed at the world. Her ears are large, round, and very pointed at the tips. Finally, Morag-Nog's hair is a deep-black color, not exactly too maintained. But she keeps it in five thick cornrows that start at her hairline, and go to the back of her head.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Morag-Nog dresses <span class=""bb-i"">classily</span>. Almost out-of-character for what people expect Orcs to dress. Morag-Nog wears dresses, and puts on jewelry. The kind of outfits that look more on place with royalty. That's when she's out on the town. When she's at home, or inventing, she goes for the more practical outfits. Or practical for this time era. I don't know shit. Morag-Nog is always seen with a thin black cane.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Classy, well spoken, and more. Morag-Nog is certainly not the typical hard-headed Orc, she talks and carries herself with class compared to nobility (Despite not being one). She never speaks unless she has something to say, and, when she does, people tend to listen. One thing she does despise are people who run their mouths constantly. She'll either break her silence to shut them up with a few choice words, or more. Otherwise, she's silent. Quietly waiting and absorbing all the information these fools have to give. It's more about her apathy and cynical attitude rather than arrogance. She has seen the world before, and lost what had really mattered to her. People can call her bitter, and ruthless at worse. Morag-Nog doesn't care too much for her morals anymore. Since she's a crippled woman, and feels as if she owes the world nothing. Only thing keeping her on track would be her goal of taking technology from the Red Legion. Which, in her eyes, is more important than most of the shitstains she encounters (Especially nations and the politics of the world). However, she rarely uses violence or her brutality as the first option. Instead she goes for the cleaner route of talking her way through problems rather than killing. Morag-Nog is not a monster. She values her allies, and long as they don't act as detriments to her, she will treat them right. A give and take thing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Hard-fapping
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Morag-Nog has a mechanical mastery that is unmatched in the Kingdom (Perhaps, on par with the Red Legion if she gets an opportunity to compare. Wink, wink). If someone presents a device to her, she will take it apart and have it put back together in record time. She'll also be able to tell people what it's made of, and what it does. For Morag-Nog's knowledge spans far and wide. It needs to in order for her to invent stuffz. She can put together trinkets if she has the materials.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> How did Morag-Nog, inventor extraordinaire, come to be?

Well, get on my knee and I'll tell you....

Her father was an Orc Bandit, Dubok-Nog, leader of a group that was infamous for pillaging and raping alongside the Haderlock borders. Stealing all gold they could get their grubby little mits on - for no particular reason other than the fact that they could. He had mustered a large group of bandits that was comprised of Orcs and Humans, working in harmony as they committed filthy acts at a reasonable price. They were only truly active for a year. After awhile, people got pretty pissed off about their stolen gold. So bounty hunters, adventurers, and soldiers, came gunning for them. To the point they could operate without someone attacking them, or some ambush being sprung on them. Most of the wise chose to quit while they were ahead and leave the bandit group. While Dubok let greed take over him and try one last raid. Which was the last thing he <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span> did. However, before their fall, Morag-Nog was born in secrecy, with her mother being, Avalog, one of the former bandits that jumped ship once things looked bad. But, Avalog was alone, with an Orc daughter. She didn't want anything to do with the child now that Dubok was dead. So she caught up with one of her former ""co-workers"", Cole and Ingrid (Lovers that were planning to get married), who were close friends to Dubok (Also attempted to talk him out of his last score), and convinced them to take Morag-Nog. Before disappearing and probably fell off a cliff or something. The couple took Morag-Nog to Nepharie, where they lived out in the wilderness. Forming a little warm. Huntin' the booty ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Now, growing up in a location that was primarily owned by humans was not exactly easy. There wasn't exactly too much of a community for Morag-Nog to integrate into. Being one odd Orc in a primarily human community. Morag-Nog was mostly kept at home, at the farm. Where she was taught everything she needed to know. How to fight. How to maintain weapons. How the world works. And more. Of course, that kept her satisfied until she got older and older. Realizing that her place was not in this farming community, Morag-Nog bid farewell to that life and kept moving. She was given a horse and enough money to get started. The only problem was that she didn't know where to start. She figured that she had no choice but to put that fighting training she received to good use. She became a mercenary, a sword for hire. Her first job was to take out some thugs that were harassing a small town. Fortunately for her, they weren't trained, nor armed. So they were taken care of relatively easily. She kept doing jobs like this - which got progressively harder and harder. Morag-Nog got better and better, until she was capable of taking them. Morag-Nog made a name for herself being a brutal, but effective, mercenary that would do jobs for anyone. Eventually, she joined a group of Mercenaries comprised of multiple races. Humans, Orcs, Minotaurs, and more, all working together to take on big jobs. Like stop bandits, and beat up kids for their lunch money.

And it was the life that Morag-Nog loved. A place where she felt at home, instead of being a farm hand, she was a mercenary. Everything changed once she took a mission to take out a bandit group that were hold out in a cave. However, the group had an ambush set up to deter anyone else planning on capturing them. Morag-Nog's group were the first to show up. An epic battle took place between both groups. There was blood, body parts, and hats flying all over the place. It turned out that Morag-Nog's team were the superior fighters and had the bandits on the ropes. That's what made her get a little cocky. During her climatic fight, someone snuck up on her and nearly took her leg off with a full force sword swing. It damaged her leg badly and made her keel over. By the time the fight was over, she was rushed to the doctor. Potions and other things helped her heal faster. In a few months, her leg was healed! Mostly. She could never walk right again. That was the end of Morag-Nog's mercenary adventures at the age of twenty-five. She took her money, and her mercenary team left her to continue their adventures. Leaving Morag-Nog's life rather empty. Confined to a town in the Kingdom of Talbor, Morag-Nog was probably going to throw herself off a bridge or something.

However, she was approached by one of the people whom she did a job for in that town. A human inventor named Sarah that wanted an apprentice. Since Morag-Nog had suffered a career ending injury, she wanted the Orcess to be that person. Which was an odd request for a warrior, but she was desperate to find purpose, so she just went for it. Morag-Nog was taught everything Sarah knew about inventing, and worked on many projects with the woman. Some of them going hilariously wrong. Well, many of them weren't wrong. Morag-Nog had taken a talent to inventing, something that she felt that she did better than fighting. It was years before she managed to separate herself from Sarah and stand out on her own. Decades past, and Morag-Nog continued and became a master. A few months before current events, and Morag-Nog's was seventy-two, and Sarah had passed away. Leaving behind all of her knowledge of machinery to Morag. Who wanted to change the world with her inventions.

When the Fire Nati- I mean Red Legion, attacked, initially Morag-Nog was apathetic to it. Long as they don't disrupt her work, she didn't care about who was a king or a queen. That changed once she learned what technological feats they were capable of. She figured that she should get back into adventuring in order to get some of their technology and study it. In order to reverse engineer it and somehow come up with a counter to it.

And maybe find someone who will fix her leg.


<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Morag-Nog still has her double-ended battleax from her youth. She keeps it nice and polished, even though it hasn't tasted blood for years. For protection, she carries around two daggers with her at all times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Morag-Nog is strong as hell and equally tough. Much like other orcs. Combat used to be something Morag-Nog excelled at. Fighting whoever paid the best. Bandits, monsters, your grandmother. However, those days have long past. She hasn't exactly seen a real fight in years. Other than fighting a mugger or someone who runs their mouth too much. Morag-Nog has been taught how to use longswords, but she has learned how to use battleaxes - which became her main weapon. She used to be able to cut someone's head off with one well placed swing. It's harder to do with her disability, but she has been practicing how to fight on one bad leg. But she prefers subtly and stealth these days. As much stealth as a giant-ass Orcess can muster!

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Morag-Nog shares the same weaknesses as other orcs. Slow, bad senses, and smells bad. Morag-Nog has that aforementioned bad leg. It limits her mobility greatly, and if she stands on it the wrong way, it's gonna hurt. Someone can also take advantage of this weakness. Anyone can really. Which is why she isn't exactly too keen on fighting anymore. Even then, Morag-Nog has not seen a real fight in years, and she's pretty rusty compared to the more youthful and experienced cast members.

It is the cold of winter, but the day in Nepharie is quite seasonably warm. It is fifty degrees and a warm breeze blows through the trees. It is sunny, but there are clouds on the horizon as if a storm is coming. 

It was noon when the northernmost gates of Capital City opened and the party came in. They were twelve in all, twelve men on horseback clad in scarlet armor, riding in three lines. Nine of them rode with rifles in their hands, resting on their shoulders in decorative fashion. Two in the front had white flags resting on their shoulders, and the rider in the center held nothing. A very large sword hung from his back, and his armor, unlike the others, was black with a red trim. They rode past the tavern, ignoring the brilliant blue dragon on the roof, leaving dust in their wake. Other horses and wagons on the main cobblestone road pulled over to avoid being run down as the powerful horses plowed by and the metal armor clinked robotically. Upon arriving at the castle gates in the middle of the city, the party of twelve stopped and a guard toting a heavy halberd approached on a warhorse. 

“Who are you blokes then?” he said with hostility in his voice. 

“We seek audience with the chancellor!” a metallic and decisive voice clanked back. 

“Well do you have an appointment?” the man asked. 

“We are the messengers of the mighty Silas Rex, king of Ignion! We require no appointment!” the front soldier squawked. 

“What in Matrem’s name is Ignion?” the guard replied “I’ve never heard of such a place!” 

“But one day you shall.” a new voice replied, one less mechanical and more stern and calculated. Two of the soldiers in front parted, and the man in the black armor rode up to the front. He removed his helmet, revealing dark hair combed back and away from his face and distinctly South Nepharie skin, tan and sun-weathered. 

“My apologies.” the man said kindly “I am King Silas Rex, and I have an audience with the Chancellor in approximately twenty minutes. You may look on the council itinerary yourself if you deem such to be necessary.” 

“A straight shooter, this one is.” the guard said “Very well, you may pass. Raise the portcullis!” The portcullis was raised up and the party entered, dismounting their horses and leaving them in vacant stables in front of the front gate with the white flags. 

“Say,” the guard said “What are those...those things you’ve got there?” he pointed to the rifles. 

“Ah, those!” Silas said politely “Those are cosmetic. I assure you that they are not loaded and have no potential to damage anyone inside.” 

“Very well.” he said. The party proceeded into the castle’s main hall. 

About twenty minutes later, the party of men in red entered a circular room atop the tallest tower of the castle, where a panel of senators sat along the walls and Chancellor Feuille rested in a comfortable silver-and-green throne. An official opened a scroll, and began to read loudly to the senators: 

“All hail Silas Rex, ruler of the kingdom of Ignion and overlord of the Phoenix Mountains.” The man who called himself Silas entered the room with his entourage of soldiers and took a seat in a smaller throne in the center of the meeting room, directly in front of the silver-haired Feuille. 

“Salutations, good King Silas.” Feuille said with a French accent “We of the council of Nepharie understand that you have a proposition to make of us today, yes?” 

“Indeed I do, friends.” Silas rose from the chair and took a few steps across the marble floor towards Feuille. 

“And what, the council asks, does this proposition exactly entail?” one of the gaudy and grey senators spoke up “You were quite vague in your letter.” 

“Why, senators, I propose a peaceful resolution to a conflict which has yet to be fought.” Silas replied “I propose your total surrender to my military.” There was momentary silence and then laughter from at least half of the senators, Feuille included. Silas stood perfectly still, staring at Feuille as he rolled about in his seat like a child told an inappropriate joke. 

“Surely,” Feuille said through his laughter “Surely you must be joking.” 

“I assure you that I am not, Lord Chancellor.” Silas said. He began to pace around the circumference of the room “I have a rather large and powerful military currently camped within your border, a few miles north of the town of Boroden. I, however, am a kind man and I do not wish to see the women and children of this noble empire burn, so I figured that I would extend an olive branch of peace before the walls began to crumble.” Most of the senators had stopped laughing by now, and Feuille looked dumbfounded at the man below as if he were speaking a foreign language. 

“If this is your true intent, Silas, then you are a total fool.” Feuille said “The Nepharie Republic backs down to no military force, and we have a standing army of over one million two hundred thousand men.” 

“Then I sincerely hope you have many grave-diggers, Chancellor.” Four guards approached Silas from either side, halberds in hand. 

“Get him out of here!” Feuille shouted, offended. The guards attempted to lay their hands on Silas, but he shrugged them off and drew his longsword. Before they could attack him, two loud bangs, like thunderbolts, echoed through the room, and the guards fell dead. Silas looked up at Feuille, who was positioned to leap from his chair. But Silas did not attack him, but instead said “So be it.” and, grabbing the sword by the handle, drove it into the floor, shattering the marble. He sheathed the sword and left the tower with a swish of his red cloak, his men trailing behind and the four guards laying dead around the center of the shatter, the blood running from their wounds making rorschach-esque shapes upon the floor.

“So there I was, running along the wall, my cape ablaze and this really smoking blonde unconscious in my arms, and as I run I start hearing this little snapping noise behind me, right? So I look back and lo and behold the damn guards were shooting crossbows at me! So I say “hell with this man”, chucked her over the side and hauled ass over to the other side. Luckily, she landed in a convenient pile of hay. I have never run that fast in my life!” The long wooden table in the Snorting Dragon was alight with laughter and dappled sunlight filtered into the room through a narrow window. 

An elven woman, only a seat or so away from the storyteller rolled her eyes. Her expression was plain and obvious. No beating around the bush with this one, it seemed. “That’s bullshit, but I believe it.” She said, “There’s no way your dumbass could’ve hauled itself that fast while carrying some ‘blonde babe’.” she finished, before taking a drink of her mead.. Apollos looked down to the witch with one eyebrow raised and scanned her, stopping at all the appropriate points. 

“Oh really?” he said playfully “Then how about we test it; get down to your bra and I’ll run across the wall out there.” A young woman with blue skin who said with her hood up elbowed Apollos hard in the bicep. “What?” he said. 

“I’d rather go full lesbian before that.” she sniped in response, a grin splitting her face. “Doesn’t look like your lady friend appreciates it either… You remind me of a friend of mine. No idea where he is at the moment.” Some of the people at the table seemed to be shocked at the way a woman was speaking to a very wealthy-looking gentleman, but Apollos himself laughed haughtily once more and cracked his neck somewhat cockishly. 

“Little bit of salt on this one, eh blokes?”  Apollos said “I like that about you.” 

“Eh, it’s better than having your salty surprise.” she replied in response, her grin still large, but no longer from ear to ear like it had been, more so a friendly and close-mouthed kind of smile. The table exploded in laughter, even rising a giggle out of Asher, who seemed to be trying to keep to herself. 

“So what’s your name? Next one’s on my friend. Fuck gender roles.” she said, taking a few coins out of her satchel. Tucker was shit at managing money, so she had gotten him to give her his money as to not drive himself broke. Apollos acted dramatically taken aback by such a request, and Asher rolled her eyes as he jumped up onto the table and thrusted a sword through the wood. 

“Do you not know who I am, fair maiden?” Apollos said haughtily “Why, I am the great and wonderful Sir Apollos Dominico Prosperos del Orarius, king of the brigands and lord of the thieves! Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!” 

“I swear to Matrem if you start singing again…” Asher mumbled, trying not to draw attention to herself.

“I’ve seen a man-turned-cow ride a dragon, so not much impresses me anymore. Nice to meet you Apollos. I’m Arya.” she said. “I’d offer a hand but I don’t know where that shit’s been.” Apollos was about to quip when the front door of the old smelly tavern swung open with a loud “BANG!” Standing in the doorway was a large form cloaked in a thick brown travelling cloak. He was massive and hulking, larger than any man in the room, and as he walked towards the bar counter all voices hushed. He sat down on a stool quietly and, hood still up, beckoned for the barkeep with two thick grey fingers. 

“I’ll have a pint of ale and a one of those porthouse steaks I’ve been hearing about around these parts, please.” he said. The barkeep nervously nodded and shuffled off towards the kitchen as if moving too slowly would prompt the giant to eat him. Before the doors could swing shut, the huge head of a dragon peered through, its blue scales glittering in the sunlight. Its eyes giving the room a once over before they fell on Arya. It crooned and pulled it’s head out before anyone could shout in alarm. It more than likely saw this man entering and chose to use this moment of distraction to do its thing. There was the sound of gust outside, and the whole roof shook slightly, but otherwise remained unnoticed. A blonde, average sized pretty boy carrying a violin, which windblown hair entered the building. A stupid smile on his face and his chest puffed out like he owned the place.

“Hey Apollos, is that the blonde you were talking about earlier?” Arya said, reclining back in her chair and crossing her arms under her breast. Effectively breaking the silence. Conversation began once more, and Apollos got up from his seat to size up the newcomer. 

“Ah, so you must be the fair maiden’s lover.” Apollos said “Allow me to introduce myself. I am-” 

“His name is Apollos.” Asher said rather loudly, looking over her shoulder at the newcomer “Sir Apollos some-bullshit del Orarius, grand vizier of the guttersluts and prince of the pickpockets.” she said in a mock Spanish accent. Apollos shot her a disapproving raised eyebrow and she rolled her eyes. Arya choked on her mead and Tucker, seeing that he was being spoken to, waltzed over to the table, setting his instrument down next to his partner. The large man at the counter grunted. 

“Not my l-” Arya was going to say, but was cut off by the bard before she could speak.

“Long ass name, compensating for something?” Tucker said, sticking out one of his leather gloved hands. “Name’s Tucker. I’m nothing special.” he said. Apollos shook his hand energetically and directed him to a seat next to him. 

“Well you certainly must be something to reside with such a lovely and raunchy woman.” Apollos replied. 

Arya scoffed. “I have him by the balls and by the satchel. Tucker, drink’s on you.” she said, a wicked smile on her face. “Yeah yeah, she-devil. Laugh it up. You’ll be paying me back for it soon enough. I just got done banging a fairfolk chick.” Now it was Asher’s turn to choke on mead. Apollos continued to smile like an idiot. 

“Why do you say it so confidently?” Apollos asked “What, are you in a contest of some sort?” 

“What, she didn’t tell you?” Tucker said. “Figures. She doesn’t want to admit she’s losing. We’re longtime friends, traveling from place to place at the moment because she bet me I couldn’t sleep with every race in Tithe by the end of the next solstice.” Arya made no reply instead she stared hard at her mead. She seemed to be muttering a string of curses that would make a sailor blush. At this point, some of the other members of the table left or moved away, leaving the four alone. Apollos was dumbfounded and Asher seemed to be attempting to ignore Tucker, looking down at her glass of port with a stare that could kill. 

“Dude, look at them.” Tucker said, clapping a hand on Apollos’ shoulder and pointing to the two women with his free hand. “You think they’re having some telekinetic conversation or something?” Asher blushed, but the hood hid it. This new guy was really pissing her off. She sipped at the thick port gingerly, trying not to make it boil. 

“You never know with womenfolk, my friend!” Apollos replied, putting an arm around Asher “Ah yes, I don’t believe I introduced you two to my dearest sweetheart here. This is the lovely Asher Stormfront.” The man at the counter straightened as if he had been struck by lightning. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh, why do his words make me melt so?</span> Asher thought. 

“We were having a conversation about how much of a royal douchebag you were.” Arya said. She looked over to Asher. “Hey Ash, you already heard my name so… did you said her last name was Stormfront?” Arya said, perking up visibly.

“Welp, now you’ve done it.” Tucker said, his grin ever present on his face. The man at the counter began to get up and move towards the table like a phantom. 

“If you are referring to the psychics, then yes.” Asher said. She lowered her hood to show her bluish-violet complexion and black hair. “I was a Stormfront.”

Winters in Talbor are long and unforgiving. It is thirty degrees (fahrenheit), and a light snow falls through the frigid wind blowing off of the mountains. The sky is black and cloudy as usual, but the sky to the west looks quite clear. 

The streets of Maceron were crowded and the crowds moved with a frenzy like ants swarming across the ground towards drops of juice. Guards in chain mail waded through the streets, attempting to direct the somewhat frenzied crowds on their way. There was an air of panic in the voices of the passersby as they moved away from the city’s high walls and towards the center where the stone towers of the keep loomed from out of the urban smog. Iro Hesekar stood against the flow of traffic, looking from face to face with interest, as if attempting to figure out what the problem was. His trusty turtle dragon Mitos sat at his side, munching on a wicker basket full of cabbages intently, paying no mind to the crowds fleeing from the city walls. From the nearby gate Iro could hear the grinding clank of a portcullis lowering, punctuated by the slamming of heavy metal doors. The smoke signals all blared, and guards in chain mail marched up and down the tops of the walls, crossbows in their hands. A lull in the crowd appeared, and Iro used it to approach a guard nearby dressed in chain mail with an expensive-looking breastplate. 

“Excuse me sir.” Iro began “Exactly what is all the fuss about? I don’t see an army.” 

“Ah, ye haven’t ‘eard?” he said in a thick Olenport accent “ ‘Ey’re up in the hills, siah.” the guard pointed to the hills in the distance, where a column of black smoke lofted into the heavens. It appeared as if there were a firestorm on the horizon, sweeping across the grass and turning everything to black. 

“Who are they, exactly?” Iro asked. 

“What, are ye daft, siah?” he said “ ‘At there’s the Red Legion. They’re about fifty miles off, but still the people are terrified of ‘em. Ye must’ve ‘eard what they did to Fort Imperius!” 

“Something about metal arrows, wasn’t it?” Iro replied. 

“Aye! They approached the fort from far away and began to fire boulders of metal at the walls. Not one man survived, I tell ye. They emptied the place. Only a single messenger escaped, and with only one leg by the time ‘e got here!” 

“That sounds dreadful.” Iro said. The guard laughed. 

“Ah, don’t ye worry about it.” the guard replied “The walls of Maceron are impenetrable! We’re fully locking up the whole damn place to keep ‘em out! It’ll take a lot more than iron boulders to bring down the walls of the impenetrable city, siah!” 

“Excellent, then.” Iro said “I sure hope you’re right.”

It is bitterly cold in Juvegol today. A snowstorm is brewing, and the ground is already covered in three inches of snow. It is twenty degrees (fahrenheit) but the wind off of the Frost River makes it feel much colder. Crowds were gathered across the river side of Juvegol as a long row of men in red armor began to take positions across the opposite bank; they stood perfectly still, their rifles on their shoulders and the black slits of their helmets pointing forward; dark, silent, godless. These were not men, but machines, and their blank stares ahead causes people to cringe as if they were being burned. Luke Feng stood close to the edge of the bridge, which luckily was up, scanning the identical faces of the men across the river as others around him did the same. He had never seen so many men in uniform! And what were those strange things on their shoulders? What could they possibly want? As he watched, a soldier on horseback approached the edge of the river and began to shout:

“Lower the drawbridge, I say!” he yelled. The crowd parted in two as a large man in steel armor approached the edge. He was a hulking, muscular man with a white beard and a heavy mace hanging at his side. A greathelm rested under his arm, and he stared ahead with a glare that could melt a glacier. 

“Now why in the name of all of Matrem’s creation would I do that?” Sir Arrond Blount shouted across the river. 

“We do not wish to harm your people, Sir Arrond. We simply require passage to the Northlands in the name of the Red Legion.” 

""And who exactly is the Red Legion?"" Arrond replied ""I've never heard of such a place!"" 

""Our affairs do not concern your people, Sir Arrond."" he repeated ""We simply require passage to the Northlands in the name of the Red Legion."" Nordavind soldiers began to make their way towards the edge of the city, and with their pikes gently assured people that it would be an excellent idea to back away from the edge. As armies converged at either side of the drawbridge, it seemed as if quite the standoff was about to occur. 


It begins.

“Smells this.”

Darsi shoved the clay bowl full of a newly made incense right into Dosi’s face, with Dosi rearing away and raising his hand to push the offer back. “Wh- no! Not while we’re so close t-… wait, don’t tell me you’re-“

Darsi had already shoved his snout into the bowl. Dosi merely watched as his brother slowly raised his head and took a few soft sniffs. His brow perked up some as his mouth hung agape. “Dun knows… what yah missin’.” He gently sealed up the bowl without so much as glancing at it and set it aside, placing his hands upon his knees, keeping his head raised and eyes closed. A smirk slowly began to etch itself across his face. And he slowly rose from his lowly bonds to Tithe and ascended into a state of sublime euphoria. Dosi shook his head, still watching. “Unbelievable.” He said, “We’re about to reach Capital City and you’re getting high.”

“High… as… a clouds…” Darsi responded softly, not turning towards his brother.

“You just set yourself up to look like a fool in front of… well, whoever’s there.” Dosi stated, “We walk in and you can’t even say a word right?” Of course, even when he wasn’t under the effects of an incense, Darsi’s Cyclan was a little less than stellar. Dosi had already mastered the language, but Darsi still got some words wrong every now and then. The incenses themselves didn’t help keep his memory intact. He’d only made lists and reminders for the important things; recipes. “Don’t… need… words…” Darsi replied softly and slowly, “Just gots tah… wave… the smells… around…” He slowly leaned back on his hammock, staring up at the ceiling of the tent. Dosi shook his head and turned back, looking at the trail sprawling forward. Off in the distance, he could see the faintest array of rooftops and spires over a low hill. These lands… they were nothing like the sands of Dorakis. Verdant greens with fields of odd plants reaching everywhere, and the <span class=""bb-i"">trees</span>. They’d heard stories, both of them. Dosi had seen paintings done by travelers, and Goka had regaled the events of many travels to them both. But seeing it for themselves? For the first time?

“Incredible…” Dosi remarked under his breath.

“WHERES.” Darsi shouted, shooting up and thrusting his head out the frontward leather flap, darting his gaze left and right, “WHAT’S INCREDULOUS.” His eyes were wide and he was breathing frantically. That incense was doing its work, that’s for sure. “Ohhhhh…” He said, looking around at the scenery. “That… be… fulls of… yehhhhh…”

Dosi shook his head once again.

The twin doraks’ traveling companion, pack mule, bodyguard, <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> mobile home, Karkada as they called her, scuttled along the stone-laden path arching over the hill. The moment they began to descend, they were met with a sight unlike any in Dorakis – fields upon fields of crops, filled with folks of several races working in them. Houses and huts dotted the borders of the fenced sections, stone pillars reaching up into the air and releasing puffs of smoke. The land, the people, the architecture… nothing like Dorakis. At all. As Karkada trudged along the path, many farmers and walkabouts stopped and stared. Some waved, some retreated into their homes. Of course, no harm was meant at all. Karkada was a peaceful creature, thanks to the brothers’ work. A lone boy peeked his head over a wooden fence and waved to the two Dorak. Dosi hesitantly waved back, and Darsi… well, he just kept looking at everything, wide-eyed.

“I can feels me eyes… just… DANCENING…” Darsi said aloud, focusing his gaze on the encroaching northern gates of Capital City. A very, very large archway with lines of folks passing through, with some wagons and caravans to boot. Even from this distance, Dosi could tell it was big enough to let even Karkada pass through, big girl she is. He directed her towards the gates, creating a wide berth amidst the two-flow crowd. Most of them looked up at the two Dorak with a sense of bewilderment. Maybe they had never seen a Gimian Skora before. Whatever the case, the large tent strewn about her shell and tails did well to signal she was non-hostile. That didn’t mean the two would have to explain themselves a bit first, though.

“Oi!” Came the voice of one of the armored guards stationed near the gate. “Doraki mount? That thing tame?”

A bit of apprehension from Dosi at first, but he looked down at the guard and answered, “Yes, uh… sir. She’s behaved. Won’t cause any trouble. We’re here to barter some.” He was thankful the guards here at least knew of the Dorak and their travelling customs.

“First them troop of red metal men with their fancy sticks, now you?” The guard replied, “Day keeps on gettin’ stranger. Ah… never mind it, go on in. No trouble now, hear me?” Dosi had no idea what the guard was on about with “red metal men”, but he wasn’t about to stick around and ask any inane questions.

“I hear you.” Dosi said, nodding. He meagerly waved to the guard, who stepped aside to let them pass. Karkada began marching forward once more, with a wide berth granted by the crowd of folks coming and going into the city. Dosi was just awestruck at the multitude of races, all gathered together in one location. Tharnkidae was a fun place to be in Dorakis, and it had its fair share of foreign visitors, but… this was a new, fresh, outside experience. Meanwhile, Darsi was just slowly waving his hands about, flabbergasted by the crowd of folks around the city. A lot of them were eying the giant, twin-tailed scorpion just marching into the street with two scaly mole-men riding atop it with mixed looks of wonder, disdain, joy, and even fear. A Gimian Skora had that effect on foreigners, supposedly.

Dosi pulled Karkada into a halt as she neared a peculiar building at the end of the pathway, facing the gate in the distance. Atop it rested a strange, winged, azure… serpentine, creature? Something neither of the brothers had ever seen before. Not even in paintings. From the looks of it, it wasn't trying to kill anyone. Maybe that was normal here, unlike most of the bugs in Dorakis. It just... rested, on the roof of the tavern, eyeing folks. It passed a quick glance at Karkada before turning away. Dosi thought it best to not question the creature's presence, but still... he was apprehensive. He averted his eyes downward. “The… Snorting Dragon?” Dosi muttered, staring at the sign above the doorway. Darsi peeked over his brother’s shoulder and gasped a bit. “Ohhhhhh, I wanna… I wants tah tries an’ eats it.” He said, dazed. His high wasn’t going to wear off anytime soon.

“Looks like a tavern.” Dosi said, “Guess it’d be a nice place to start.” He looked around the surrounding area, at all the market stalls and vendors peddling their wares. If the Ruuks were looking to sell some of their stock, this seemed like the perfect location for it. Dosi turned to his brother and looked him in half his four eyes. “Listen to me very carefully.” He said, “I’m going to go in there and ask around for a… tour guide, I guess. Someone who can give us a lay of the place, maybe tell us where we can make a good amount of coin. If the area here doesn’t do such.”

“And…” Darsi replied, smirking, “What’s about yah brutha? And ya skora?”

“You’re going to stay out here until you’re back on ground level with the rest of us.” Dosi replied, “<span class=""bb-i"">Then</span> you can come inside after you’ve made sure Karkada is secure.” Truth be told, Karkada was capable of fending off any thieves by herself – giant scorpions aren’t the most approachable creatures. Still though, in a foreign city… best to be safe.

“Yesssss, I-… thinks I can do suches a thing and too.” Darsi replied, head wandering. “Goes on then, have yah… what’s…”

“Just stay here.” Dosi said, shaking Darsi’s shoulders some. He turned and emerged from the tent, making a leap off of the now nestling Karkada. He turned back to see Darsi looking around some more, waving to random folks. If they were going to set up shop later, he’d have to be clear-headed for it. Dosi gave a wry smile, nonetheless, and headed for the tavern doors.</div>"

“Daniel,” Wesserius voice was soft, but it didn’t need to be anything more. His entire army stood in dead silence, glassy eyes locked upon the gates a few miles before them. They were at the top of a hill within the valley. They had to go down the hill. Then through the valley. Then they would reach the gates. Then through those. Then they would be in Talbor.

Daniel approached, unable to keep himself from shaking just a bit. He was familiar with the general, he had no reason to personally fear the general, he had committed no sins against him nor done anything to incur his wrath. But he shook just a bit. “Yes sire?”

“What,” Wesserius mused, “Do you think about all this?”

Daniel hated these sorts of questions, because there was no right answer, and it was really an awful drop if he were to be forcibly thrown off the hill. Wesserius sat atop a rock, easily spotted by any Talborian scouts with looking glasses. He didn’t seem to care. The general’s greying hair was cropped relatively short, a messy, unkempt mane that reflected his messy, unkempt style of doing things rather nicely. Within a few feet of him, the temperature picked up ever so slightly-and if one caught the general in the edges of his vision, the shimmering of a mirage made things ever so murky. 

“Well, sir, I see no easy way through this valley.”

“True,” Wesserius said. His left hand was quite unlike his right-whereas his right hand was flesh and bone, his left was…something else. His entire left forearm was blackened, horrifically scarred, and at the wrist a strange blend of steel and wood and stone functioned as a hand. He moved it with noticeably more difficulty, but white fire danced along his fingertips, begging to be set free. Wesserius watched it as one would watch a lover dance. “But, there is always a way. No matter how difficult. How would you suggest we go about attacking?”

Daniel took a few moments to think over a response-Wesserius was a patient man, and he preferred intellectual thought to knee-jerk instincts. Behind them, the vast majority of Wesserius’ army stood stock still, hands slapped flat against the sides, no armor or weapons slowing them down. Regular people. Humans, orcs, elves. Idly staring ahead. Mindless. 

Pawns, bishops, king. Daniel finally said, “Well, sir, I would wait until nightfall, and then try and send some forces around the sides of the mountain, take out their scouts…maybe…”

His voice trailed off. Wesserius waited until Daniel admitted, “I don’t know sir.”

“Tsk tsk. Well, fortunately, I do.” Wesserius stood up and whistled. A single man stepped forward, sluggishly moving up behind the general. “Take thirty of you. Begin marching through the valley. Single file, horizontal. Do you see that rock right there?”

A grunt of affirmation.

“Excellent.” Wesserius whistled again and another man stepped up. “I want you to get…” Wesserius closed his eyes and did a few silent calculations, lips moving. “Three hundred and three. Three hundred and three knives. Distribute one to every thirtieth person.” 

Daniel did not fully understand where they were going with this. He remained silent.

“Gentlemen!” Wesserius said energetically, nimbly getting up on top of the rock. A century and a half, but the elf still had it. “I will not waste my time giving you a rallying speech, for you will most assuredly be dead within an hour. You thirty.” 

The thirty men responded by way of monosyllabic groans.

“You are going to march down the hill. Into the valley. I want you to take your time. I want you to avoid doing anything that might startle the enemy, I don’t want you making any loud noises, I don’t want you doing any silly chants. Savvy?”

Groans.

“I thought as much. Now when you get parallel with that rock, I want you to take this knife,” Wesserius took a blade from the crates of knives that were being brought forward by the drones, “And I want you to slit your throat with it. Then the next man in line will take it and do the same. You will continue this down the line until you all are dead. Questions?”

Daniel remained very silent.

“You will repeat this five times, a different group heading out every fifteen minutes. But the sixth time, we are going to mix things up! Gentlemen, your group has one hour and fifteen minutes. You are to find as many branches, as many disposable pieces of wood, so on and so forth, that you can. You will not receive a knife.” Wesserius handed the leader of their line a wineskin of oil and a blazing torch. “You will proceed down the line, but you will instead immolate yourselves. I want you to remain still and quiet as this happens. Savvy?”

Silence.

“Good. You will repeat this cycle until we get to the thousandth man, at which point I will evaluate our progress and decide what to do next. Carry on.”

The men began to march out, solemnly and impassively, the Red Legion’s spell bidding them onwards. Inside, they were probably screaming and weeping. Try not to think about it too much.

“Daniel,” Wesserius said, resuming his seat on the rock. “Please go and tell our soldiers to ready for battle. Assuming the wind holds, we’ll attack in about eight hours.”

“…what, um, is the plan of attack, sir?”

“Sunset. Sun will be in their eyes. Smoke will rise. Lower visibility. Make things difficult for their scouts in the mountains. Move ahead. Send more of the drones, en masse. They provide cover for the siege engines. Rams focus on the gates. Artillery will need time to bring down the gates. Construct catapults when you’re in the valley. Not before. Impossible to traverse the hill. Load the catapults with the drones. Live. Burning. Get them over the gates. Will occupy archers and generally make a mess of things. Did I leave anything out?”

“…no sir.”

“Good.”

Wesserius leaned back, drawing out a pipe. He cupped his left hand around the end and it bust into flame, a fire that would consume the pipe whole in a matter of seconds. With a miniscule effort of will, the flame died down to something manageable, but occasionally, when Wesserius wasn’t watching, it seemed to try and burst up again. Daniel turned to leave, a bit paler than normal.

“Daniel, wait, before you go. Another question.”

“…ask away, sir.”

“What do you think stars are?”

Daniel was even less sure of how to proceed with this. “Um…I…the legends say they…”

“I don’t care about the legends Daniel. I want to know what you think.”

“….they’re…suns? Just…further away?” 

Wesserius raised an eyebrow. “Hmm. That would make sense, wouldn’t it. I have my own theory, would you care to hear it?”

“…yes sir, I’d love to.”

“I think stars are just worlds. Other planets. Out there in the void. Worlds that someone made kindling of and set to burn."" Wesserius stood up, white flame beginning to course down his prosthesis.

""Come, Daniel. We have a world before us. Let us set it to burn. Let us make a star.""

""...yes sir.""

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">CALDER</span></span></span>

A minotaur sat in the snow. Little white specks clung to his nose and around his eyes and horns and generally settled on his black furry head and white fleshy shoulders. 

He didn't seem perturbed.

By the crystalline river sat Calder, a minotaur who, in another realm, would've made a killing off the royalties to his autobiography. But in this one, his autobiography was still a work in progress, and still very terse. It was the very object which he was working on at the moment-a leather-bound journal, worn and for the most part, empty. A small ribbon fluttered in the winter wind, yanked every which way. Frequently, it flopped across the page, well in the path of where Calder would be writing. This didn't seem to faze him-in fact, the minotaur sat staring at the blank line, an uninked quill held firmly in his hand. He had not written a word. He had been sitting by the riverbank for fifteen minutes. Juvegol was quiet. Juvegol was serene. It was slightly chilly, Calder supposed, but a little chill never hut anyone. In fact, it made Calder feel almost alive-and given that Calder embraced every facet of every hour of every day, this was saying something.

Calder snorted, scuffing some of the snow out of his nose and, after folding up his journal to prevent the pages from getting wet, shook his head, sending a small blizzard of flurries down onto the ground around him. He opened it back up. Calder was not a gifted wordsmith-he was not blessed with an eloquent vocabulary, he was not gifted with years of schooling. Most times, it took Calder a considerable while to legibly and correctly write a single line. For this reason, Calder's diary was simply an anthology of sentences. The day. The most important thing. That was his entry for each day. 

Calder dipped his quill in the inkwell, eyes following the serpentine coursing of the water. Pretty. Perhaps he would take a bath once he had finished reflecting on his day. 

<span class=""bb-b"">February 3rd. Juvegol. There is a pretty river.</span> 

Calder lifted his quill to write the next word, having taken a full minute to etch the line above, when something interrupted him. While our minotaur was far from sagacious, he was certainly not the sort to be annoyed very easily-slavery and being interrupted during his quiet times were really the only surefire ways to enrage Calder, and it would seem that the Red Legion was doing both. A group had begun to assemble on the far shore of the river, armed and beared for war. It was about the only way Calder could tell-he looked upon their faces and saw none of the bloodlust or battlefrenzy or berserker rage that was common amongst warriors. These did not seem warriors. Their clothes were not full with muscle and their hair was not long from campaign. Their faces were blank and their eyes were empty. These did not seem natural. They were some unnatural aberration, an error that Mother Nature forgot to fix.

Fortunately, her dear son Calder was there to fix things for him.

<span class=""bb-b"">February 3rd. Juvegol. There is a pretty river. Blank people. It is time.</span>

Calder closed his journal calmly and fastened it back with the strap, making sure his precious recordings were safe. To most, the minotaur's journal would be comical in and of itself-a minotaur, recording his thoughts and feelings? But, just as with his sketches and poetry, Calder held it very close to his heart. He tucked it within his rucksack, then he stood up. Hmm. The trees around him kept Calder a bit obscured from the Juvegol side of the riverbank-they were slavers, the Halderlocks, and Calder had no love lost for those who would take another life and put it beneath chain. Had they come for him, Calder would have thrown their spines into the river. However, he did not want to fight if he didn't have to (especially because the river was very pretty, and as a rule, Calder did not like to get blood all over pretty things), but it would seem that he had to.

Calder rose to his full height, years of training and warring rousing from their slumber in the form of taut muscle, stretched across his arms and calves and chest. Calder rolled his neck, began to limber his body with deliberate, careful movements. A fairy had once taught him these stretches. He had never heard of a minotaur stretching but the fairy had been nice and he didn't want to be rude so he tried and it was fun so he kept doing it. Calder knelt and began to put on his armor, a strange assembly of bone and steel and chain that was cannibalized from the many who had fallen before Calder's blade. As he latched himself into his piecemeal protection, Calder began to talk quietly, his bass rumbling drowned out by the river.

""Hello Mother,"" Calder spoke, speaking to...whoever was listening. Calder believed in a higher power. He was not sure what. He knew there was one but he didn't know what. He asked sometimes for forgiveness for not knowing. He hoped the Higher Power understood that Calder was faithful but just not smart enough to know sometimes. He called it Mother and also apologized in case it was a boy. ""I think these people will fight soon. Please help me make well of the time I have left.""

The white-fur-streak and the black-flesh-scar both burned for a moment, a callous, sinister reminder that the old curse was coming, snaking its way up to its heart, and that no blade or fist would stop it. <span class=""bb-i"">Run. Calder. Run all you wish. What will your last diary entry say?</span> It will say I did my best and that I was happy.

""If I fall today let me fall with honor."" Calder paused, trying to remember if there was anything else he forgot about. ""Oh! And also please watch for my brothers in the mines. I will try and help them if I can."" Anything else? Hm. Calder paused for perhaps a full minute, simply thinking, trying to remember. Was there something else? Probably not. ""Okay. I think that is it. I love you. May this fight bring me to you or to Sylvia.""

Calder picked up Sylvia, a blade which, quite bluntly, was a nasty motherfucker of a sword, and slung it over his shoulder with casual ease. He had gathered his things. He had readied for battle. Calder walked out from the grove at ease with himself, a sort of strange dichotomy welling up within him-there was the hunger and the fury for battle, to test his strength against these armies and see if he would emerge victorious, but there was also the calm. He was not afraid. He already had looked death in the eye and made his piece. These men would not scare him because no men could. Calder was happy. Calder was free. He was the river and the eddy. He was the blank lines and the ink in the diary. He was the-

""Bird!"" Calder exclaimed happily, spotting a songbird fluttering overhead. He didn't see many up north. Too cold for the little ones. Calder whistled and it flapped over, landing on his horns. It tweeted at him. ""Hello little brother. You should go. It will be bad here soon."" 

It chirped merrily and did as it was bid. ""Birdy,"" Calder said, watching it fly. Very pretty. There were lots of pretty things. Most people did not watch for them. 

Calder walked and moved over to the drawbridge. A few of the guards rather nervously glanced at the shadow-casting behemoth that had lumbered up. Attention was split between Calder and the army across the water. ""...what do you want, minotaur?""

Some of the condescension was lost on Calder, who was fairly condescending towards himself on general principle. ""Why are those people here?"" Calder rumbled.

""We don't know.""

Calder paused, thinking things over. There were some nervous glances. A few questioned if he had fallen asleep standing up. ""I'm a good fighter,"" Calder said somewhat modestly. ""If they are bad people, I can fight them.""

""They are indeed. Very bad people. Extremely bad.""

Extremely. Hm. ""You have slaves. Why should I care?""

A few more nervous glances.

""If I help fight will you let them go?"" Calder asked.

""Of course.""

Calder frowned, thinking things over. It was worth it. There lots of them but he did not see death in them. They would be easily broken. ""Okay. Please do not..."" Calder paused, remembering the word. ""Betray me. It makes me sad when that happens."" 

Calder walked up to the drawbridge, sitting down with his legs folded at it. He laid <span class=""bb-i"">Sylvia</span> across his lap and took a few deep breaths. There was no rush. The Legion would get there whenever they did. So Calder watched the river course by, entirely oblivious to the very uneasy glances being thrown around him, or cautious whispers. They said they would let the slaves go, so Calder was willing to do this. It would be okay. There would be fighting but Calder would win. He always did. 

""Okay,"" Calder said. ""I am ready. Are you going to let the bridge down or do you need me to swim?""</div>"
15953,Under the Red Sun,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76105-under-the-red-sun,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced']",2015-02-17 19:47:00,Nron,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h1"">Sikarthis and Tári Númenessë</div>


Tári Númenessë was warm and cozy when she awoke in her private bedchambers in the keep of Juvegol, the heavy furs and thick woolen sheets cradling her tiny body as she lay atop the overly large bed that took up close to an entire wall by itself. Yawning long and quietly she remained in the depths of her sheets as she wiggled around on the bed, trying to locate a bottle of wine or whoever it was that she had spent the night tearing down social boundaries with, whichever came first really. At the moment she was partial towards the wine so that she could suppress the first echoing pains of the hangover that was making itself known the more she woke up. Halfway through her strange squirming turn Tári spied the culprit behind her growing head pain, an empty bottle of vintage wine sitting atop a dresser alongside a solitary glass. Both were devoid of even a single drop of fermented headache remedy and Tári let out a tired, anguished mewl at this realization.

""I do believe that we are now under siege."" Sikarthis casually remarked from his position at the narrow window set into the southern wall of the room. Still half asleep and with a hangover ready to start kicking at the back of her eyes Tári awkwardly performed a series of rolls and inchworm-esque maneuvers until she could spear him with a look that demanded attention and assistance, preferably in the form of a temple massage and some godsdamned liquor. He was seated at the foot of the windowsill on a cushion and reading what appeared to be one of the books from her own private collection. He was also entirely naked but that was irrelevant considering she was too under all those sheets. Some mornings, after the Glacial Knight had left her bed and was dressing for the day, Tári would catch herself marveling at the way the light played off his frosty skin. Today, with the hangover and his apparent disregard for what the words 'private collection' meant, was not one of those morning.

""Mh bhk"" she half mumbled half moaned from within her textile cocoon. Sikarthis stopped turning the page he was reading and turned his head slightly to regard her with a mildly confused look.

""Come again?"" his voice was deep and carried with it the chill of Glaces itself. 

""'s mh dmd bhk sd"" Tári's second try was about as effective as the first. With a sigh laden with irritation Sikarthis set his book aside and extracted himself from his cushion, his head nearly brushing a hanging candelabra as he rose to his full height. In six steps he was at the bedside and after a few moments of struggling the Glacial Knight managed to pull Tári out from the prison of sheets and furs that she had built around herself. She was wide awake by the time he slid two chilly hands under her and lifted her into the air, suspending her there several feet from the ground.

""Honestly,"" Sikarthis grunted as he avoided her flailing limbs, ""if you're going to make me get up just to hear what you have to say the least you can do is cease this inexplicable wriggling of yours."" 

""I said its my <span class=""bb-i"">fucking</span> book you glorified <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">popsicle</span></span>! Now put me down you know full well how cold you aaAARRRRRG QUIT THAT!"" He had apparently taken offense to being compared to a frozen treat and had opted to relocating her to his shoulders, her thighs on either side of his neck as she was perched up there  She hated being manhandled this way and he knew it. Unfortunately with her current hangover and disadvantageous position she was in no position to struggle as Sikarthis went about collecting his clothes that were strewn about the floor of the room. She was about to berate him for taking his sweet time of it when his first words to her from earlier finally got through. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Did you say we're under siege?</span>""

""Seems to be the case."" He responded, swatting a hand in the direction of the window before he returned to pulling on a pair of trousers. The fact that he could do so with her on his shoulders was a testament to his balance. ""I borrowed your spyglass for a bit and I can't say I recognize the uniforms nor their arms. From what I can gather they want the bridge up and your man Blout down there is refusing them, a wise move but likely to cause some trouble. Ah, one moment."" In a single fluid motion he reached up and removed Tári from his shoulders, tossing her onto the bed and back to her warm sheets where she quickly sought shelter once again. She glared at him much like a hissing cat before turning her attention to finding her own clothes.

""Don't expect me to warm your bed anytime soon after that. My thighs feel like I've been sliding down a pole made of ice."" She half expected him to take the bait there and make some witty comment about their activities during the night so she could brain him with something but as per usual Sikarthis failed to deliver on that account. Disappointed but warming up once more, Tári shuffled over to one of her wardrobes and began the process of dressing, furs and blankets still draped over her small shoulders. Sikarthis failed to try and steal a glance at her backside even once she noticed and only assisted her in tying up the back of the dress she slipped on after she asked him to. <span class=""bb-i"">A true gentlemen</span>, she thought to herself sarcastically.

Their relationship was a strange one to be sure, equal parts dislike and respect making up the foundation while manipulation, one-upping, and off-and-on sexual tension were the seasoning. She had been Ambassador to Glaces for only a few months in truth and the two knew little about one another outside of what they had shared in idle conversation or the rare moments of honesty that occurred some nights when Tári lay flush with a burning inner heat alongside his cold, frosty body. He was condescending, blunt and difficult to gauge at the best of times and an absolute headache to deal with at the worst, yet the moment they had to discuss political relations between their two respective nations he was all business, switching off the parts of him that would make negotiating a pointless endeavor. Something about that irritated Tári who had never managed to totally remove certain biases or her emotions from the political games she played. She often wondered if she might one day fully break down the icy shell that Sikarthis presented to others but in the end she knew that was little more than a childish fantasy. 

Once the two of them were dressed they made their way down to the kitchens to steal a basket full of food (and in Tári's case a bottle of wine) and began the long walk that would take them to Blount and this strange army sitting on the opposite side of the river.

The majority of the city was constructed of timber and thatch, both easily acquired or purchased in Haderlock and both well suited to keeping the cold out. Sikarthis had remarked that the city structures looked like muddy huts upon first visiting but Tári had marked that down to his need to point out that everything in Glaces was 'better'. To Tári who had grown up when the city was being erected though, the simple constructions were warm and welcoming. Certainly more so than the stone and timber embassy in Glaces where Tári spent much of her time these days. Even with all the seams tightly packed and walls six feet thick lined with furs there were days where the chill would find the smallest crack and ruin a perfectly good nap.

Most of the people Sikarthis and Tári passed on their way towards the drawbridge were heading in the same direction so by the time the two diplomats arrived they were not surprised to find a growing crowd of bodies pressing against a line of soldiers and guardsmen, all trying to keep as many citizens away from the bridge and the action that was going on there. Tári had no trouble navigating through the crowd on her own, weaving past legs and through bodies with catlike grace until she had slipped past even the soldiers themselves. Sikarthis had slightly more trouble but even here in the capital of Haderlock the sight of a Glacial Knight was enough to make most people move out of the way, if not out of respect then out of healthy caution. He was however stopped by the soldiers until Tári brought to their attention who he was and his diplomatic status inside of the city. Guardsmen aren't paid to think so they didn't bother to argue, moving just enough to allow the frosty warrior to pass. 

When they found Blount they were also greeted with the sight of a rather large Minotaur sitting down before the foot of the bridge doing gods knew what.They paid it little attention.

""Blout,"" Tári addressed the significantly taller human once she was close enough, her voice laced with enough honey to attract a den of bears, ""would you be so kind as to fill me in on why there is an army sitting opposite of us? Or better yet, why I had to find out about their arrival by looking out my own window instead of receiving a report from our watch posts?"" In truth Tári was not the Head diplomat for the capital nor was she necessarily in charge of handling any diplomacy with military forces outside of Glaces. She was however one of the few experienced diplomats currently in the city and apparently the first on the scene so in her mind that put her somewhere above the king and right below the gods in terms of the 'need to know' ladder.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">The morning came too soon</span> Adelaide thought as she dragged herself out of bed to the unmistakable sound of Volak screeching for food. The vulture was on a fast track to becoming a rather troublesome guest at The Smiling Goose Inn with his consistent disobedience and constant squawking. It might not be so bad if other guests didn't think of him as just an eyesore and instead saw his stray feathers and beady, curious black eyes as a compliment to his handsome personality as Adelaide did. Adelaide, on the other hand, was always grateful for his presence, after-all she was only here because the bird was and there's never been an easier way to convince father to let her accompany him on trips than to offer to keep the awkwardly large and energetic travel companion in check.

Adelaide couldn't complain about the inn itself; despite being under father's house arrest her stay here had been rather enjoyable. Last night her and Ciara devoured a delicious oxen roasted in honey, served with garlic bread and the raspberry wine was to die for! The journey from Alma Castle had been much longer than the girls had anticipated and rather than just buying food along the way father instead insisted that there was something to be learnt and that preparation is the key to every journey - something Adelaide already knew to some degree. After enduring almost a full day without substance the pair couldn't wait to gorge down the meal after being seated by a polite young man at one of twelve polished oak tables that gave audience to a marvellous stone fireplace and a fancy looking bar which nicely decorated the lobby. The living rooms weren't too shabby either, Ciara declared that she didn't like the bright drapery and bedcovers but Adelaide thought they added some much needed colour to Maceron and welcomed the theme.

'SQUAAAAAAWWKK!!' 

'Can you please shut that little bastard up!?' Ciara moaned as she pulled the striking orange pillow over her head. <span class=""bb-i"">Okay. Maybe they are a little bright</span> Adelaide reconsidered as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes and got up to open the large panelled window that overlooked the narrow, colourless streets of Macaron. 

'Ciara!! Don't call him that!' She protested, snapping out of her thought. As she did so Volak let out another long and deafening squawk before scurrying across the room, cascading clumsily into the dresser and awkwardly wrestling his way out of the recently opened window.

'See! How is he not a little bastard?' Ciara asked, eventually getting up too. Adelaide just couldn't help but to laugh at the crack he'd left in the window on his way out and began reading a note that father had left. 'He knows exactly what he's doing...' her sister continued, 'Father goes missing for two days and he starts flailing around breaking things as if he can't just sit still, and we KNOW he can... What's it say?' Questioned Ciara, changing the subject as soon as she noticed Adelaide pick up the note.

'Long or short?' Adelaide replied when she finished reading the message.

'Short.' Came the response, almost before Adelaide had finished speaking.

'Don't leave the inn, don't talk to anyone 'til I get back, the usual.' Adelaide answered, watching in awe as Volak circled majestically above the city. Sometimes, very rarely, but sometimes, she envied that bird and this was one of those times; as he soared freely above so effortlessly Adelaide couldn't deny the vulture had a personality of it's own, Volak eventually swooped down low and out of sight, <span class=""bb-i"">to wherever he wants to go</span>.

'Let's go shopping!' Ciara announced out of the blue as she stood up readily, it didn't take her long to get herself looking presentable but from the quick do Adelaide knew that her sister wasn't intending on impressing anyone today. She also couldn't help but notice the devilish look in her sister's otherwise innocent, blue eyes. Adelaide knew that look, a look reserved for mischief.

'Did you not hear what I just said?' Adelaide didn't want to stay inside either but rules were rules and they were there to be followed 'Father said that we're not to leave and we're not supposed to spea...' But before she could finish her protests Adelaide found herself being dragged out of the bedroom, hurried quickly through the lobby with a few sharp shoves and out of the gigantic dark green door of the Smiling Goose onto the bustling streets and into the tide of people sweeping through them. As she wrestled through the dense crowd to keep up with her almost possessed sister Adelaide heard a familiar soft voice shout out from a short distance ahead 'You don't ALWAYS do what he asks, do you?!'</div>"
15955,Under the Red Sun,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76105-under-the-red-sun,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced']",2015-02-18 03:40:00,UrbanEvolution,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""steelblue"">Tooth</font> and <font color=""burlywood"">Dosi</font></div>

It had been a while since Tooth had really traveled the lands like he was now. The sea and waves had been his life and love for a long time. They were the roots of his very being. Since the day he had been a fletchling swirming out of the mud to reach the sea the salt water had always dominated his life.

In being a man of the ocean, he had grown accustomed to trade and commerce centers throughout the land. Most around the coastal regions, but not all. The capital was, for lack of better wording, by far the best place to start his trek of finding himself and exploring. He ought to have strengthened his land legs by now anyways.

As he walked he took not of the shadows that fell against his large frame, as well as those from the buildings and threes. It couldn't be long past noon by now. At latest two in the afternoon. The sun was at it's peak and he couldnt help but relish the warmth that the sun provided him. It was uncharacteristically warm this day. It was the winter solstice still which was odd, but he wasn't complaining. As he walked he readjusted his backpack. It was heavy. Full of the metal armor he wore so often. For comefort's sake he wore his tanned leather and hood for the time being, to save himself the discomfort. As he walked however, he couldn't help but notice a tavern that seemed to be garnering the attention of... well, things that one doesn't usually see.

The first and foremost was the huge arachnid like creature, the size of a small house. Built like a scorpion, complete with the stinger (two of them, in fact) and all. The creature had a hut on it's back, with smoke rising from it and had an odd smell. This aroused mild worry in the reptilian man, but it was quickly doused. The other was a huge sapphire blue dragon, perched on the roof and watching the passerbies traverse the streets. How no one was reacting to such a l creature meant one of two things. Either it's owner was a regular here, or that those in the city were all blind.

Tooth had never been one for alcohol. The beverage never did much for him. He always seemed to react badly to it. He knew from experience this time would be no different. However, his curioustiy was not gone. He pulled down his hood, allowing his well taken care of ashen and red feathers to be displayed, and opened the door to the Tavern, and only just was able to side step running into a smaller mole like man. ""Oh, excuse me."" He said. His voice was flat, but his were sincere. He continued forwards, to the bar. He took one of the stools and set down his pack next to it, and ordered a water. A few of the men at the bar gave him an odd look, but he ignored them. Knowing better than to return their gaze. Instead he turned to the conversation at hand. The one with the bard and the witch and the hooded girl and the...

Oh, oh my.

His attentive eyes landed upon Apollos. The scar he had given him long ago still ugly and ever present. The reminder to the pirate that, should he ever attempt what he did again, that the job would be finished. His blue eyes narrowed, scanning over the halfling, and he pulled up his hood with his free hand, and directed his gaze somewhat downward, hading his eyes from sight. The last thing he wanted to incite was a bar brawl, or create a bad name for himself right off the bat. He would regret it. His age was getting to him these days and he doubted he would be able to come out of such a skirmish unscathed.

He turned his attention ever so slightly back to the mole-man from moments before. He was slowly scanning the interior of the tavern with his quadruple array of eyes. He was dressed in a mismatch of leather garbs and belts with some forms of... bug shells, wrapped around separate points. His overall appearance... Tooth thought for a moment. He was a... Dorak, wasn't he? The folks from the desert in the east? Yeah, that was it. The Dorak slowly weaved his way through the array of tables dotting the tavern floor. He caught a few glances from some patrons but nothing more. Apollos and his three ""friends"" certainly weren't paying him any mind. He looked... confused. Lost, even, like this was his first time being in a tavern at all. He slowly made his way to the bar, and Tooth turned his head away.

The Dorak paused for a moment, running his two large fingers along the surface of the counter. After a moment, the bartender approached him. ""Get you anything?""

He quickly turned to the bartender, holding his response. ""I, uh..."" He said in a low, somewhat accented voice, ""Sorry, do you... have... any... bugs?""

""Bugs?"" The bartender replied, ""M'my 'earing you right?""

""Do you..."" The Dorak replid, genuinely worried, ""Not serve... bugs?""

The bartender gave the Dorak a raised eyebrow and a scowl. ""Maybe you ought to clear your head, mate. You ain't talkin' right."" The bartender turned and left the Dorak at the counter, a look of confusion and embarrasment etched across his long, scaly, lightly scarred snout. He rubbed his three-fingered hand on two of his eyes and shook his head, looking pretty bewildered. He slowly propped himself up on the stool next to Tooth, as if just now realizing what such furniture was meant for.

""First time at a tavern?"" Tooth questioned, not turning to face the Dorak, but still asking. He didn't turn from watching Apollos out of the corner of his eye. He didn't trust him, not for a second. The Dorak turned his head slightly, locking two of his eyes on the old Saurian. He slowly nodded his head and replied, ""Yes. I'll admit, I'm... sort of confused.""

""Aye. My first time was interesting. Nearly killed a few men in a fight. It wasn't a good place. Much shadier than this one."" Tooth replied. His eyes darting to the Dorak's for a moment before turning back to watch Apollos. ""Although, entering a bar with a giant scorpion and a dragon on the roof certainly means an interesting first experience..."" He trailed off at this point, and for a moment he seemed like he was finished before he stuck his huge hand out for the Dorak to shake. ""In Nepharie, those who meet for the first time shake hands. Where I come from, we bow to one another."" he said, and continued onway. ""Tooth-In-The-Sea is my name, but many just call me Tooth. It is a pleasure to meet you. And you are...?"" he finished, leaving an empty blank for the Dorak to fill in the air. He grabbed his hand and gave it a firm, mannered shake. ""Dosi Ru-..."" He said before interrupting himself. ""Just Dosi now, actually."" He paused for a moment after they separated their hands before saying, ""That, uh, giant scorpion you mentioned? Was it on <span class=""bb-i"">fire</span> by any chance?""

""Alas, I know not. But it was leaking smoke, and had an odd aroma in the air around it."" Tooth replied. ""Why, might I ask?""

Dosi sighed some. ""<sub>Well I guess he's watching himself, at least...</sub> That was my traveling companion out there, her name's Karkada. My brother Darsi was more than likely submitting himself to some... herbal incenses, within our tent."" He turned his head for a moment before muttering under his breath, ""<sub>As long as nothing's actually on fire, they're fine.</sub>""

Tooth said nothing to this, his eyes seemed blank- as if deep in thought. He brought his glass over to his maw and took a drink, downing the water in one lap.

""What, uh..."" Dosi suddenly began to ask, ""What are you, exactly?""

""I'm a Saurian, in the common tongue."" Tooth replied. He held out his arm to display his black, white, and red feathers for the Dorak. ""Reptilan and bird like for me. We hail fromt he tropical islands far down south."" he said. ""I'd imagine it's much different than your home, yes?""

A bit of a smirk was returned from Dosi. ""Dorakis isn't what others would call <span class=""bb-i"">normal</span>, I'd wager.""

""I can tell. No one who comes from a normal place comes into a bar asking for bugs.""

""Well, that's all there is back home."" Dosi replied, ""Bugs, bigger than... well, most things. This whole city is only a little larger than a Varaka Bertis. You'd call it a ""mountain beetle"" in Cyclan, I believe."" He ran his eyes around the room again, and he folded his hands together as well. ""Goka, my... aunt, I think's the word, she told me the insects outside of Dorakis are smaller than a Dorak's foot. Was hoping that wasn't true, but... is it?""

""The biggest ones I've seen on the mainland are beetles no bigger than your first. The smallest... no larger a grain of sand."" he said. ""Where the hell your giants come from, I have no clue.""

""I met a walkabout in Tharnkidae, this city on the western border of Dorakis... he said it has something to do with the... air, I think? It's more... bountiful, if I'm remembering right. Said it's why the bugs are so big and the Dorak are so lively."" He scoffed ever so slightly and said, ""Don't know if that's the truth or if he was just crazy.""

""I think it's... You know what, I wont even ask."" he said. ""You're new around here, yes? I'm wandering the lands some at the moment, since I have yet to really set foot on the main land like this in a very long time. If you wish, I could show you the way. Like... a tour guide of sorts."" Dosi turned and gave the Saurian a raised brow and a mouth agape, as if Tooth had just up and answered the Dorak's internal prayers. He nodded and said, ""I think me and Darsi would like that very much.""

Tooth was silent at this, but the ends of his lips curled up in a small smile.</div>"

---------------------------------

""Fuck you..."" Echoed the voice of a whiny slightly high pitched male, a hint of disdain and annoyance radiated from his speech, as if the male was completely and utterly exhausted and aggravated. 

...

""Mreow...!"" Echoed back an animals voice...

Currently on route toward the city of Maceron, Two out of place travelers headed in the direction of the large, square shaped piece of ominous landmass slowly, the one in front being what appeared to be a tall six foot human lord named Bartleby, supporting slightly dirty Caucasian white skin and green eyes, a lack of sleep showed through the dark bags which hung under them. The male had a set of ginger swept back hair and a soul patch beard and was gifted with a meek and pathetic skinny, non athletic build and with all this, is also missing a single front tooth, garbed in a set of jet black nobleman shoes, and a set of black scale skin leggings wrapped with jet black belts. Supporting a white frilled shirt, a blue and gold trimmed noblemans vest, a golden cravat and a jet black cloak. To top it all off, the noble wears an eccentric jet black musketeer styled hat, with a blue feather lodged at the side in the most over the top fashion.  

Behind the tall, out of place nobleman stood that which could only be described as horror incarnate. The deep pitched meows of a cat, continuously echoed behind the ears of the noble, as trailing him appeared to be a morbidly obese Siamese cat, supporting glistening blue eyes and a tubby, fat smile plastered on its greedy slobbering face, as it waddled behind Bartleby nonchalantly. The cold winds nothing for the felines mass of blubber which made it look incredibly out of place, a wonder the cat still lived and even more wondrous was how it could even move in the first place! The greedy eyes of the cat gazed back up to Bartleby once more, before it meowed once again, causing the noble to stop and turn around to his frustrating flabby feline.   

""No fuck you, Shin...! It's because of you that we're even IN this mess..!"" whimpered the annoyed Noble, his eyes gazing into the bottomless eyes of the cat, his arms spread out at either side, currently walking backwards toward Maceron while the cat continued moving forward.

""If it wasn't for you, We would have... MONEY! Yes shin, actual money! Money we would have! You know what Money is used for. don't you, fatass?!""

""Mreow...!"" spoke the fat cat.

Bartleby's expression then twisted into a mix between angry, sad and destroyed all at the same time, finding it hard to control his gestures as he began to express his mix of emotions by pointing and almost flailing about madly toward the cat.

""NO! IT'S NOT FOR FEEDING YOU ALL THE TIME! Why is it you think everyone is here to feed your fat ass?!"" He shouted, years of living with the cat gave Bartleby the ability to know what the cat was thinking, it's not that Bartlby was intelligent, it was simply because shin was not, and in shins mind, there was only two things that mattered, Food and food. The nobles eccentric array of movements and speech did nothing but make the cat tilt its head in confusion, finding the display at the most just simply odd.

""Meoww....!"" The cat replied, causing the nobleman to quickly turn away and begin to quickly walk ahead, groaning in displeasure, and placing his hands to his face, screaming into them in complete frustration.

""Why? The reason why is because other people need to eat too! Food is for everyone, we all need to eat, you know! It's not just so you can stuff your fat flabby fricking face with food fucking forever...!"" Bartleby whimpered.

""And because of you, we're now currently... ALMOST EMPTY?!"" Bartleby expressed complete horrific surprise as he checked his coinpurse, his eyes quickly turning back to his feline companion in shock and terror, lifting out only an amount of 40 Reon within, thje remaining of his wealth, shaking the coin purse frantically.

""When?! How?! You! Where?!"" He blubbered in a panicky fashion, pointing to the coin purse and the cat, his eyes wide in shock.

""You! We had money... We had money that was important to us! It bought us important things...!""

""Meow...!""

""My clothes are important! And so is food...""

""Meow?""

""FOR ME, NOT FOR YOU!""

""Meow...""

Bartleby grimaced and stopped talking, deciding to to waste his time speaking to his black hole in a cats body and make it to Maceron as quickly as possible so they could try to find some way to reverse the effects of his horrible luck, from a rich and successful connning businessman to a poor eccentric liar with a fatass tied to him like a ball and chain, the two eventually made it toward the gate of Maceron, with the guards on the palisades gazing toward the two odd visitors. The nobleman speaking loudly back at his cat when they reached the gate.

""From now on shin, from this day forward... You are going on a diet...""

The cat stopped meowing, as the sound of his light tapping paws ceased, causing Bartleby to raise his eyebrows curiously and turn around, finding his cat several meters away sitting down, giving Bartleby a neutral expression as it simply refused to move, causing the nobleman's lips to quiver in resentment.

""No you fucking don't...!""

""Meow""

The cat stuck its tongue out lazily and simply sat in the middle of the road, Bartleby having to hurriedly rush over and attempt to push the cat, but its heavy fat weight proved to be too much as he could hardly budge the cat, as if it had just attached to the ground like a coupling, giving a low hiss, which slowly and threatening got louder the more the nobleman pushed the cat, causing him to stop pushing and clench his fists, building up an outrage within, he slowly calmed himself down and knelt in front of the cat, speaking in a pleading tone of voice.

""Please... Work with me? If you go on a diet, you can eat as much food as you like... No matter how long! Infinite amounts of food, as tall as dragons and as big as castles! You can have as much as you want, forever and ever until you-"" 

Bartleby's voice was interrupted by the grotesque, gagging of his cat, as a thick, mucus coated furball expelled like the speed of a bullet from the cats gaping mouth straight into Bartleby's face with a wet and powerful smack, causing him to grunt from the sheer force of the impact, which caused the guards at the gates to laugh in unison, which embarrassed the nobleman further as he wiped the hairball from his face and lowered his head in a defeated manner.

""Fine... no diet""

""meow!"" Happily echoed the cat, as it stood on its four fat legs again and walked behind him toward the city, the nobleman standing up and heading toward the gate of Maceron as well, hiding his face, the guard at the gate just laughing and waving him off to go inside, not even able to talk from what he had just witnessed, Bartleby giving his cat a angry frown, as it gripped to his leg and slowly dragged its huge fat frame up his meek, thin body, the fat cat literally climbing onto the poor souls back, like a ton weight, making him walk toward the huge crowd with a defeated expression.

""Why me...""</div>"
15957,Under the Red Sun,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76105-under-the-red-sun,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced']",2015-02-18 12:21:00,Fat Boy Kyle,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#92278f""><div class=""bb-h1"">Honoria</div></font>
In one of the inn’s dark recesses sat a quiet woman draped in a long grey hooded robe. The old dirty wool did not make a fancy piece of clothing, but it served well enough to keep her hidden in the room’s dim light. Upon arriving in Nepharie, Honoria had been left feeling vulnerable amongst the open sea of fields; there were no thick forests to hide her trail or to shelter her from the wind. Worse still, the damaged shade came across far more people than she was used to and the men all seemed to stare at her in the same fashion as the Red Legion scum not so long ago. With some reluctance she brought the robe off a travelling merchant and had worn it ever since. 

“…I have never run that fast in my life!” boomed a voice from a table not too far away, and it was followed by a chorus of laughter. Honoria tiredly rubbed her eyes as she felt the onset of a headache. She was not used to the sheer chaos of noise that emanated from a city, let alone from the nearby group in the dainty tavern. She was struggling to eavesdrop on as many people as she could, desperate to hear to whispers about the Red Legion. In the few days that she had been staying there she had been told a few rumours, but she learned the hard way that asking every soul that came through the door was a waste of time; instead she merely sat alone with open ears. 

“How can people live like this?” she muttered quietly under her breath as she took a bite of the bread in front of her. Before a couple of days ago she had never eaten the stuff, and she found it to be rather dry and tasteless. She sat perplexed for a moment and wondered if it tasted much different to the small wooden table that it had been sitting on - not that she was willing to find the answer to that question. She could smell the rich aromas of other dishes around the room and she contemplated ordering something else, but knew that their menu lacked dishes with no meat. She was completely vegan, although her belly and nose seemed to want to argue otherwise. 

“Ey, lady!” called a burly man from a nearby doorway, “Could you, erm, sort ya fella out? I need to change some barrels!” 

Honoria simply nodded in response before her black smoky eyes became diluted with swirls of red. Colubra, her Shadow-Snake, had been granted lodging in the Tavern’s basement. Whilst the Landlord had been initially against letting a giant snake into the building, they had quickly realised that it was the perfect solution to the giant rat problem. Still, many of the bar staff understandably wouldn’t go near the thing unless Honoria did her little magic trick to control it. “Thanks” said the bartender before making his way down. He grimaced as he entered the dank basement to find more rat entrails strewn over the place, but at least Colubra (whose eyes now also had swirls of red) was curled up in the far off corner. The man didn’t understand how a snake, who supposedly ate most things whole, could somehow be such a disastrously messy eater. 

Back upstairs, although Honoria was unable to tell, a few new faces walked into the tavern and a few people begun to mutter their anxiety at the presence of a dragon and a giant scorpion. 

<font color=""#a36209""><div class=""bb-h1"">Kuruk</div></font>
Dark emotions filled the stone streets of Maceron, its people fleeting around in fear of the coming fight. There was perhaps a singular smile amidst the chaos, and it rested upon Kuruk’s menacing face. “We crush little men!” laughed the giant Centaur as he slapped a nearby guard on the back. The young guard simply crumbled under the brute’s hand which caused him to laugh even louder. “Argh! I fucking love a good fight!” he beamed loud enough for all nearby to hear. Most people simply blocked out the hulk and his exclamations in their attempts at getting to safety, but it he seemed to be frightening the nearby guards. Well, him or impending Red Legion forces. “Why can’t we fight now?!” he shouted at a nearby commander, but the man simply waved Kuruk away. Kuruk began to get impatient and hyper, like a young child on Christmas Eve, and so found himself cantering up and down the busy streets in anticipation. 

“Come on Daisy, around the big <span class=""bb-i"">horse man thing</span>” muttered a small old man off to Kuruk’s side. The centaur turned to find a feeble old elven farmer slowly guiding a fat dairy cow. The farmer looked up at the giant to find him giving his precious cow a strange grin.

“Erm… can I- er- help you sir?” mumbled the farmer rather nervously. The farmer was short, even for an elf, and he removed his flat cap to show respect. 

“How much for this pretty little thing?” Kuruk drooled as he lovingly stroked the cow’s face. Daisy seemed oblivious to the situation and let out an offensive gust of wind. “Ooo! That sound’s healthy!” he chuckled, “I bet she’ll be a lot of fun!” 

The farmer was confused for a moment, but then he realised what a male horse man might want with a female cow. “<span class=""bb-i"">What?</span> No! She’s not for sale!” cried the farmer, mortified by the situation.

“Oh come on! You can have her back afterwards…” Kuruk replied as he slid his hand along the cow to her hide. 

“No! Leave Daisy alone!” whelped the farmer. “He’s trying to have it off with my cow! Someone help!” he begun to scream when he realised the Centaur was no longer paying him any attention. The street was packed with people, including guards, so surely someone nearby could save the farmer and his poor Daisy.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Morag-Nog</span></span>


""Sorry, Ma'am, but we cannot take that job...."" The thin human man in leather armor, stated. Getting a stern glare from the gigantic Morag-Nog. The orcess whom was sitting across from him. He brushed a strand of his dirty blond hair and placed his drink back on the table. 

Hearing the news, Morag-Nog didn't lose her composure. Not one bit. She took a sip of her drink, wine, while keeping her eyes on the table. One table of many in this dark tavern that was lit up by the fireplace on the other side of the room. Expensive wine, but it tastes better than the moonshine these people call. She stopped. ""I thought you and your group were a reputable team of mercenaries. I am offering top dollar for this job."" She said to the mercenary calmly as possible. Because getting angry won't solve anything. Nor does she intend on letting her inner-irritation slip.

The man leaned back into his chair, and both his hands behind his head. Good. He didn't put his feet on the table. Otherwise Morag-Nog would have considered cutting them off. ""But, this job's suicide. No one can fight the Red Legion and walk away from it.""

Morag-Nog placed her cup on the table. Responding in a matter-of-fact tone, ""Then don't fight them..."" Her eyes came up from the table and to the mercenary. ""All I'm asking you to do is get some weapons from the Red Legion. I didn't say fight-""

""I said forget about it."" The man interrupted her. He pushed his chair out from underneath the table. ""An Orc like <span class=""bb-i"">yourself</span> would break the gun before you got to use it anyway."" The bastard had to make one snide comment before he walked off. Morag-Nog didn't even look. She merely sighed and got off the chair. The loud tap of her cane hitting the wooden floor would have echoed if it wasn't drowned out. Her stride was more of a limp, her weight was on one side.

She pushed open with her shoulder. She was immediately assaulted by the cold winter winds of Maceron. She took a step in the streets before closing the door behind her. Ugh! That's the fourth Mercenary group she went to. They all said no. What does she have to do to get some competent mercenaries to get her some of their guns? Why was everyone so afraid of the Red Legion they won't take a simple mission against them?  Morag-Nog realized that it's something she can't pay someone to do. A mission she'll have to go on herself... Which is easier said than done. But, Morag-Nog stopped. Leaning on her cane. Something was odd here. The crowds were hectic... panicked, as if they seen a ghost. Morag-Nog furrowed her brows as she looked closer. She looked up and saw smoke in the distance.

If it's who she thinks it is...

Someone must have an answer to this.</div>"

To a passerby looking into the training courtyard, one might be surprised to find the young Feuille engaging in what appeared at first glance to be a set of push ups. Only after a bit of examination would one find him not going about it the way one should, instead holding the upper position, sweat beading off of his brow as he clenched his muscles in concentration, trying his best not to fall. 

About a meter away, in the same position, was a southern Nepharian, calmly staring at the ground in a complete opposite demeanor to the boy. The exercise in question was <span class=""bb-i"">plancha retenida</span>, designed to gain total control over one's muscles, learn that patience is key, and most importantly, to become more in tune with your body. Because of its importance, Tanzanno could often find himself able to hold the position up to four hours at a time. 

The boy, on the other hand, was barely managing ten minutes.

Tanzanno always found himself amused at the vigor and shear cockiness that young men often exhibited. As if swordplay was just simply bashing each other with sticks, only to find themselves baffled at being beaten by old Tanz. The young ones in Orarius knew better from the constant beatings he had given them. But the son of the Councilor? The boy in question had no idea what he would be getting into. 

A letter sent by pigeon to Tanzanno had required his presence in The Capital. Not being one to deny such a request, he had saddled up onto a courser, ridden the many leagues, and finally arrived after a few weeks of travel only to be socked up to train yet another child. Not that Tanzanno was complaining, but it would have been nice to do something different for once. 

Still, Tanzanno, even with his infinite pool of patience, often disliked the children of noblemen. Feuille especially, being the Chancellor of the entire country. Children under men of such power had a tendency to behave like stuck up brats. 

Thankfully, Tanzanno had been given complete permission to whip the boy up into shape, and that he intended to do. His first steps were to test the endurance and dexterity of the boy, both of which were seemingly lacking. So many of them just wanted to get right into the midst of whacking each other over the head, but what good is holding a sword if you can't swing in for hours at a time? 

In his deep thought, Tanzanno looked back to the incident that had occurred earlier that day as he stared into the warm stone. It was an incident that smelled of disaster and chaos. Having been standing in a corner, listening to the procedures and meetings that took place in the Council, a certain group arrived that seemingly only wished to cause trouble. Ignion, it was a strange word that fell harshly on the tongue. 

Even more harsh was their demand that Nepharie surrender completely to the brigands. The whole ordeal ended in four brave soldiers dead, struck down by what could only have been described as the domination of thunder. Tanzanno's hands had dropped to his two weapons, but it was all over as soon as it began, leaving behind only widows. 

A loud buckling of limbs and a thud on the cobble ground interrupted his train of thought, and Tanzanno stood up with a slight sigh. The Feuille boy had managed a total of ten minutes, twenty two seconds. Compared to his own record, it was pitiable at best, but he had only gained such a feat through practice and more practice upon said practice. 

""Well, you made it longer than I expected... its a start at least."" His slight praise was met with a moan of dread. ""Now, twenty laps around the courtyard. Come on, boy, do try and keep up with an old man!""</div>"

The trip towards Juvegol felt like a lifetime for Tobias, he had never sailed too far from the surrounding waters of Jikari. His small fishing boat; Lucky Peace, wouldn't allow for such lengthy voyages but here he found himself on the very capable and very well-armed Miss Mathilda after several weeks of travelling north from the comparatively peaceful waters of Jikari.

Miss Mathilda was a two-story pirate cruiser ship with over twenty ballistas of varying sizes protruding from atop and within the rickety looking wooden mass that formed the hull. A huge copper bull bulged out the stern and also acted as a ram, the main sails were a deep shade of purple and at the captain's whistle a tapestry depicting a golden set of skull and crossbones printed largely on the middle would be released by Tobias given that most of his time spent aloft was on centre mast. It seemed Captain Hatch immediately took note of the lanky orc's climbing ability and was quick to set his riggers the task of teaching Tobias how to furl and release the sails of a larger ship. At first Tobias struggled with the technical side of things, climbing was second nature to Miss Mathilda's newest crew member and the orc seemed to get around the heights of the ship effortlessly, that wasn't the problem. It was all the commands and the shouting and the chaos that ensued during a harsh night at sea where Tobias found himself unstuck a few times. It was only two mistakes Tobias had made working so far and one of those times almost lead to losing three days of travel, in fact it was lucky that Keane, an older more experienced sailor corrected the young orc's error before the captain found out. Tobias was yet to face the wrath of the well respected captain and he was glad for Keane to keep it that way, for he couldn't yet figure out if this crew was bound to the red-haired, scar-ridden human that often referred to himself as ""Hatchet Harry"" by loyalty or fear. 

Tobias eventually decided he liked the ship after being onboard for a week, it looked almost like a glorified trading galley with a deadly arsenal and with the help of an impressive, albeit ragtag crew proved that a rather bulky mass of wood could move deceptively fast across the open waters of Tithe. Tobias had never seen such a varied cast as the crew of Miss Mathilda: Argon, a hulking minotaur as black as coal, claimed First Mate's quarters. The beastly looking chap never had anyone laugh at him, in fact only the captain could really look him in the eyes, the minotaur just carried an aura of pent-up aggression and hostility that was feared and avoided by the rest of the crew. Then there was the quartermaster; Humblebert, from what Tobias could tell the aged gnome was the brains of the operation and by far the most patient. Whenever Humblebert was posed a question his answers were guaranteed to be articulate and drawn out which seemed to put a lot of the other orcs onboard off of speaking to him, Tobias on the other hand always left conversations with the gnome feeling that little more knowledgable and was quick to engage him in conversation if neither of them were busy, which happened less than Tobias would've liked. The sailing master; Elrund, was a banished fairfolk with a missing eye and a bad attitude, Tobias was yet to speak to Elrund but it seemed the sailing master was equally as disinterested with him. The rest of the fifty-strong crew was comprised mainly of burly orcs and humans, a few more fairfolk and a handful of half orcs that always seemed to stick together. Needless to say Tobias knew that he had a lot to learn from Harry the Hatchet, he'd only ever heard his father speak ill of pirates but when Miss Mathilda docked in Blackstone bay where the Fischer family lived the veteran fisherman only had good words to speak of Harry, <span class=""bb-i"">and it must take quite a man to keep this lot together</span> Tobias thought often enough when things got hard.

For all the time Tobias had spent on Miss Mathilda learning about his companions he achieved little progress in the way of actually making friends and when he had any time to himself would end up practising with his double-bladed sword despite a few of the swabbies mocking his efforts during meal times. Tobias didn't really care much about the laughs and smirks of his companions, he found he could just ignore it. Truth was that the orc liked the challenge of having a blade either side of the handle, he enjoyed the little falls and occasional dropping of the sword - it was all part of the learning process, <span class=""bb-i"">and for all they laugh I don't see them doing anything to improve themselves</span>. The sword itself was quite simple, bright silver steel with a faded, mahogany cloth wrapped tightly around the centre, extremely light to hold, effortless to swing and had proven to be much sharper than the bone scimitar Tobias learned to wield whilst growing up. It was the best thing Tobias had found whilst spending most of his growing years scouring the ocean floor around Blackstone Bay for treasure chests and rare artefacts.


As the city of Juvegol came into Tobias' sight he immediately noticed a thin grey smoke rising high above it, with a peak into the looking glass Tobias also spotted a small fleet of crimson warships anchored in the Frost River. 'Captain!' He bellowed, 'Might want to come take a look at this', he wasn't sure whether or not to panic but Tobias was definitely clever enough to know what a siege looked like. Not a moment too soon the captain emerged from his living quarters in a rather unusual attire. Compared to his usual ragged clothes today the captain chose to don a glorious black admiral's jacket sewn together with a glowing gold thread and cover his long, unruly ginger hair with a wide brimmed pirate hat the same deep purple as Mathilda's sail. <span class=""bb-i"">He looks half done</span> Tobias thought as he noticed the same dirty, pale green breeches and worn leather boots he'd seen the captain in for the duration of the trip, both items condemning evidence that this was a man who only half understood the expression 'dress to impress'.

'What'sa matter boy!?' He shouted skywards and began to ascend the centre mast that Tobias frequented, climbing and leaping with the same swiftness and cat-like precision the gregarious captain displayed whilst beating Tobias in a race to the top of Lucky Peace. Usually it was a quick way to make an easy few coins to challenge someone to a climbing race to the top of the tall fishing boat that Tobias was familiar with back at home. That was until Captain Hatchet Harry showed up and beat Tobias by about four seconds.

It wasn't long after he saw Tobias and Juvegol in the distance that the captain's firm, rough hands were snatching the seeing glass from Tobias' clutches and nudging him in the arm playfully. The jovial attitude was quick to change though and with a stern, unflinching gaze the captain announced a mate's meeting almost loudly enough for the sieging fleet to here. When Tobias came to think of it this was the first time since knowing the man that he's seemed unsettled.

'Mate's meeting? What's that?' Tobias couldn't help but start feeling the panic overcome him, he began thinking of the few fights he'd been in along the bayfront and even though he could hold his own against some of the bigger orcs that caused trouble around the bay he was no warrior. 'That's a siege isn't it? Now what are we going to do?' He asked the captain, adventure is what Tobias signed up for; not war. He wasn't ever completely sure that he trusted his new boss but Tobias had been hoping deep down that the fierce, battle-hardened reputation the captain had earned preceded him and that he wouldn't be out looking for fights. The captain calmly handed the glass back over, which Tobias was grateful for, quickly setting himself the task of counting ships.

The captain took one last look towards Juvegol before setting his cold, grey eyes on Tobias and letting a wry smile escape through the few stained teeth that stuck with him during his many years at sea before replying 'That IS what we're here to do!

As the crowds began to die down and the number of people fleeing from the walls decreased from a river to a trickle, Iro stepped out of the alley and began to walk towards the city walls. Mitos clumsily waddled after him, still chewing a head of cabbage with his thick molars. The dragon was a notoriously messy eater, leaving a trail fragments behind him as he lumbered on, trying to avoid the people still moving towards the castle. 

The guards were dressed in slate grey long-sleeved hauberks, the tassets of which came down to their knees, with slits in the front and back for mobility. Over this they wore steel spaulders and surcoats split down the middle royal blue and gold. They wore high leather boots on their feet and on their heads rested steel horsemen’s pots, some with face masks and some without. They carried tall steel halberds, but some of them now held longbows or crossbows. Blue capes with the Talbor coat of arms on them (a ram’s head) in gold denoted the officers, most of whom rode horses and carried swords. Iro approached one of the officers who sat on the ground and began to speak with him; 

“Excuse me sir,” he said “but I am a priest of Matrem. Is there any way which I can assist you and your men?” 

“What? We don’t need no help from you do-gooder fairies!” the captain barked at him “We’ll be perfectly fine without your arrogant faggotry. Now begone!” Rage filled up in Iro, but he dared not to strike the man. Not only would it be against his oaths, but this man had superior numbers on his side, and stories of what humans did to fairfolk criminals. He turned away and began to walk away towards the castle when another voice called out: 

“Aye there! Don’t treat a possible asset with such cruelty, you knave!” Coming down the street was a Knight of the Ram on horseback. He was a sight to behold, his steel plate armor decorated with gold and his fluted armet helmet resting under his arm, its golden ram horns catching the light attractively. A blue-and-gold cape cascaded down his back and flowed behind him as his warhorse, decorated in plate armor and a red-and-gold caparisun, trotted swiftly down the street and stopped a few feet from the guardsman. The knight’s face was pale and grave-looking, with a thick dark mustache and long wavy brown hair. A silver medallion in the shape of a shield hung around his neck. A bejeweled heavy cavalry sabre hung from his belt, and a blue kiteshield with a golden ram visage was strapped to his left arm. There was a crossbow on his back. 

“Ah! Goodday, Sir Caldwell!” the guardsman said apologetically “Are they sending an attack?” 

“Aye, sergeant.” Sir Caldwell replied “We are going to attempt to flank the Red Legion men and attack their artillery. The scouts say that they are toting around massive iron cylinders which fire great balls of iron at fortifications. As for you, my good sir,” Caldwell now turned to Iro “I sincerely apologize for this knave’s offensive comments to you. While the guards may not believe that they need your assistance, I know that the men and women at the hospital would say otherwise. We have many wounded men from battles with the Red Legion, and a spot of cholera has infected some of the water supply in the southeastern portion of the city. You may find use of your talents there.” A trumpet blew nearby, and several more knights joined Sir Caldwell with their helmets on. A few carried lances or swords, but most of them toted crossbows. 

“I must be on my way, gentlemen.” Sir Caldwell said, donning his helmet and causing his horse to rear up “I shall return, noble subjects!” With that, Sir Caldwell rode off towards the city gates, which opened as he and his men rode through. Iro walked off, the large turtle lumbering behind him, and the head guardsman mounted his horse and walked off to where archers were filing up the stairs to the top of the walls. Iro wasn't quite sure where the hospital was, and so he approached an orc woman with a limp who was walking down the street (ie Morag). 

""Excuse me, madam."" he said ""Do you know where the city's hospital is located?""

After the guardsman and the priest were gone, one of the other guards, one with a face mask and dust cloth obscuring his identity, slipped into an alleyway, leaving his halberd leaning against a wall. He walked slowly and cautiously, his right hand moving towards his belt every time he heard a loud noise. He weaved his way through the streets and dark alleyways until he came upon a sturdy-looking wooden door and knocked three times. The door was opened from the inside, and he entered a small square room with a trapdoor in the middle of it. Standing just inside of the door were two men dressed exactly as he was, and two torches near where they stood lit the room dimly. The guard opened the trapdoor and descended a ladder into a dank cellar with walls of stone. 

The cellar was square in shape, with a pool of water in the middle and torches along the walls. Nitre and moss clung to the walls, and against the far walls sat barrels of wine, covered in dust and cracked with age. It was obvious that no one had been down there for quite some time. At the other end of the room, against the wall, another ladder ascended to somewhere else. Four guardsmen, clothed exactly as the first one was, sat around the room. Two of them appeared to be sleeping on mats of straw on the floor, and two larger men sat with rifles on their knees, obviously security guards. The first guardsman walked up to the pool of water and, removing his helmet, gently stuck his face into it, disturbing the water as little as possible. The water began to glow violet, and back in General Wesserius’ camp a crystal ball began to glow. 

“The army of Talbor is sending its Knights of the Ram to attack our artillery!” the spy said “Be prepared!”</div>"

The city of Maceron came into view as a man clad in dark robes crested the hill, leading a horse by the reins and carrying a tall wooden staff in his right hand. The blue-skinned individual stopped on the hill and looked out below him toward the city with smoke issuing from its center while simultaneously gathering his robes closer to himself in the cold air. Empty road was all that lay between him and the city now; good thing too, as he was running low on road rations. With a slight tug, the young Ogre pulled the horse along down the hill and down the last stretch of road toward his destination once more. After the trio began their descent, it was a short walk to the city. 

When he came to the gates, Heoron found them closing up and the guards laughing hysterically over something or other. In the midst of their laughing, the guards waved Heoron on. Confused, he nodded and walked through the gates.

<span class=""bb-i"">”I wonder what has them so indisposed,”</span> Heoron thought to himself as he entered the industrial gem of a city.

<span class=""bb-i"">”Perhaps it has something to do with the man in black with the cat. I saw him pass through the gates before us,”</span> a different voice answered within Heoron’s mind.

On the outside Heoron appeared to be walking along and minding his own business, but in reality he was communicating telepathically with the floating blue orb of fire located between the two slopes at the top of his staff. Heoron directed his gaze to the man in question, watching as he made his way down the street with an obese Siamese cat clinging to his shoulders.

<span class=""bb-i"">”That man’s no bigger than a twig. That cat’s going to snap him in half.”</span>

A short chuckle entered Heoron’s mind from the Will-o-Wisp as the young Ogre continued on his way down the street through the bustling crowds. After he managed to navigate through the crowd to the stable, Heoron scanned the scene and only now noticed the second column of smoke rising in the distance amongst the snow falling from the dark clouds overhead. From that and the crowd bustling around him frantically, Heoron pieced together that the city was preparing for some sort of attack. After paying to stable his horse, he turned to find a guard to find out if his conclusion was correct when he heard the tail end of a conversation nearby between a guard and a Fairfolk man.

“... iron boulders to bring down the walls of the impenetrable city, siah,” the guard spoke over the den caused by the crowd.

“Excellent, then. I sure hope you’re right,” the Fairfolk man replied.

Heoron started toward the pair when he heard a commotion down the street. When he looked, he saw a centaur patting the hindquarters of cow. Shaking his head to clear it of that image and what it could possibly mean, the young mage turned back toward the pair, but they had vanished when he had his back turned toward the centaur and the cow. Heoron looked around before noticing a trail of lettuce and began following it before Ithenul spoke up.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Heoron, look over there. Down the alley to your left.""</span>

The Ogre followed the direction and redirected his gaze toward the alley. A guard wearing a mask and dust cloth to obscure his face broke away from the crowd and slipped into the alley, laying his halberd down and looking as though he did not want to be followed.

<span class=""bb-i"">""How strange. As a guard he should be heading in a direction to help, and he looks like he doesn't want to be followed especially wearing a mask like that. Let's find out why.""</span>

After the Will-o-Wisp agreed, Heoron slipped through the crowd and into the alley, adopting a lighter step so the man would be none the wiser that he was being followed. When he saw the guard heading toward a door, Heoron entered his mind and brought forth the feeling of loneliness he had felt at Wilem's passing and cast an illusion about himself, a dark purple cloud swirling around the length of his body briefly before dispersing. As the guard stepped through the door, Heoron watched from right behind him unseen thanks to his illusion masking him as a stretch of wall.</div>"

A needle.

A needle in the shoulder. Burrowing, deeper and deeper. The soldier's vision quickly reinstates itself as he pries his eyes open, grunting in pain. A low yell as the needle scrapes against a bone, and suddenly, it retreats. The soldier hangs his head, breathing heavily. He feels his hands and feet bound by chains. He feels the splintered wooden chair pressing into his back. There is the faintest light from a lantern, seated on the rocky floor below. He slowly looks up at the figure conducting this cruelty. Regal garbs lead upward to a head lost in the darkness of the room, save for two enormous, blank white eyes. Peering through his own.
 
""Name."" The figure says with a stern, muffled voice.
 
The soldier hesitated, but soon enough, he cracked. ""Daron..."" He said through short breaths, ""Daronais... Wellant...""
 
""Role."" The figure says.
 
""Go to hell..."" The soldier replies halfheartedly.
 
The figure raises his hand and drives the needle through Daronais's other shoulder. He yells in agony, attempting to kick his feet and writhe free of his binds. All of his attempts are fruitless. Eventually he yields, and the needle is slowly removed. ""Wess-... Wesserius..."" He mutters, ""I am... one of Wesserius'... reconnaissance agents...""
 
""Which places you upon a higher echelon than his troops. I stole you away while you crept upon Alscae in the night. Near the Tartarus mountain range."" The torturer says, ""<span class=""bb-i"">You</span> have value.""
 
""He doesn't <span class=""bb-i"">value</span> any of us..."" Daronais snapped back.
 
""Of course he doesn't."" Sounded the figure, ""You're nothing but tools to him. To me, however, you are flesh. Life. Sentience. And that's well enough to aid me in my pursuits."" He leaned in closer to Daronais, revealing his horrid visage - dark, matted feathers, and a pointed beak. ""You will tell me what you know of Wesserius's plans. Where he is going. What he intends to do. <span class=""bb-i"">Everything</span>. You have two excuses. If you lie to me... the needle will tear the flesh again. Twice more beyond that... and you will regret your answers.""
 
""I don't know anything..."" Daronais says to him.
 
The torturer promptly raises his needle and pushes it between the soldier's lips, scraping the roof of his mouth before violently waving it out of his teeth. Daronais gags, spitting a bit of blood on the rock floor beneath his chair. He picks at the wound with his tongue as his captor wipes the blood off of the needle. ""Lies..."" He says, ""Will only bring you <span class=""bb-i"">closer</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">closer</span> to the brink of the <span class=""bb-i"">alternative</span> method. You do <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> desire such. I know this. And many before you have as well."" He paced around Daronais, holding the needle near his head. ""Many nights. Many encampments. Many men lost in the dark. Few returned, <span class=""bb-i"">writhing</span> in their sleep, spilling horrid things from between their bruised lips.""
 
A cold, gloved hand rests itself upon Daronais's shoulder. He feels the needle at his cheek. And the faintest of whispers in his ear...
 
""<sub><span class=""bb-i"">Do you know who I am.</span></sub>""
 
""<sub>The...</sub>"" Daronais whispers back, ""<sub>The Lord... the Lord of Owls...</sub>""
 
The needle leaves his cheek.
 
""The Red Legion speaks little of me."" The Lord of Owls says to him, ""I am but chatter and gossip among your lessers. A rumor. A joke, even. <span class=""bb-i"">Especially</span> to one such as Wesserius, so... <span class=""bb-i"">devoid</span> of concern. But he's <span class=""bb-i"">sloppy</span>... leaving a still-scorching <span class=""bb-i"">trail</span>...""
 
The needle is once again set before Daronais's face.
 
""You have used one of your two excuses. Lie to me <span class=""bb-i"">twice more</span>... and you will know true fear.""
 
""It's the truth, I swear..."" He replies, cringing, ""The General... Wesserius, he, he never even delegates his charts or plans to us, he just... makes everything up as he goes along!"" His answer was met with a slash across his forehead, which began to bleed rather profusely for such a small cut. ""You've no exuses left. One more lie..."" He gently placed his upon the soldier's shoulder and raised the needle to his eye.
 
""South!"" Daronais said through quick breaths and sweat. ""South! South, he's... I heard him say he was moving south, that's it, I <span class=""bb-i"">swear</span>...""
 
The needle retreats.
 
""There's not much shortly south of Ignion worth burning."" The Lord of Owls says, ""The Wilderness... all mysteries and folklore. I know what he truly wishes to burn. People. Establishments. Civilization."" He looks down at Daronais with those horrible eyes again. ""He's headed for Maceron."" The soldier does not respond, but merely hangs his head in shame, knowing he's outlived his usefulness by now. ""Just... <span class=""bb-i"">kill</span> me..."" He mutters, ""You got what you want, just...""
 
""No.""
 
The needle raises under Daronais's chin, cutting him as the Lord of Owls meets his gaze. ""I will send you back to him."" He says, ""I will have you tell him what you experienced here. You will tell him the Lord of Owls is <span class=""bb-i"">real</span>, and that I <span class=""bb-i"">am</span> coming for him. He <span class=""bb-i"">will</span> know fear that breaks down his wall of arrogance. And this time, so they have cause to listen to what they would normally denounce as inane <span class=""bb-i"">babble</span>...""
 
He pulls a contraption from within his cloak and swiftly clamps it down on Daronais's head. Bars and wires shift and spread, firmly grasping his cranium and pulling his eyelids apart. He sees a differnent needle now... a red one... inch further and further towards his eye.
 
""You will be <span class=""bb-i"">marked</span>.""
 
There are screams. But no one hears them.
 
No one who cares.</div>"

Through the chaos, screaming citizens, and Red Legion panic, Morag-Nog got picked ou. Morag-Nog stopped, and  placed her cane on the ground. Before turning towards Iro, and giving him a glance from the side. Grinning impishly. Must be her <span class=""bb-i"">lucky</span> day. Though, her reputation must precede her. The talented Morag-Nog walking through the streets of this city of fools? Someone<span class=""bb-i"">must</span> be stopping to help her. Or taking what little money she has on her. With everything going crazy, he must think the crippled orc would make easy picking. Morag-Nog kept one hand near the dagger on her hip. Close enough for her to draw it and poke his eye out. Well, he's in for a surprise.

The man, he appeared human, an <span class=""bb-i"">attractive</span> human. But Morag-Nog felt he wasn't fully human. That skin... she didn't spend enough time around the other races to tell. Morag-Nog could tell he was a warrior. His build, his weapons, the way he carried himself. It was too obvious. She spent too much time around his type. Long before she became the inventor that she spent decades becoming. Hmph. She sneered. Any fool can carry a sword, but this man could be helpful to her. He was on a mission, and Morag-Nog felt that she could figure out what is going on. She pulled that  hand  away. She turned towards Iro, with her cane offering support all the way.  

""I may know where it is,"" Morag-Nog answered calmly, taking a step towards Iro. ""But I need you to answer a question for me first..."" She nodded, and slowly turned towards the raging crowds of people. ""What is going on? Is the city under attack?""</div>"

The winter day was bitter and harsh, but not even a snowflake would fall over the city – not that it would be called as such. With the steel workers slaving away in the factories, and the smoke of coal fires billowing up into the sky, any and all snow would either melt in its heat and rain down as acid water, or take in its impurities and fall gently down black as the smoke itself, as though it were simply ash. It was curious in its symbolism. Talbor had a beautiful countryside. Its fields and mountains were wonders to behold, yet here, in the city, it was filth inside and out. Centered around industry. There was a time that Kane could see the beauty in the town, but the ignorance that had once blinded him to the truth has since faded, enacted by the catalysts that were all around him. The poor in the streets. The sick in their beds. The rioting at the steps, and the sinful in hiding; he had saw most but not all before three months ago, but finding the final jigsaw piece allowed him to put the whole picture together.

Maceron really was filth.

If by anything other than its government, there was hope for restoring the country to the way it used to be. Full of pride and innovation, making its riches off the plentiful resources that had surrounded them. The Ferdinand monarchy, however, was the blockade that halted Talbor's recovery. For as long as they remained in control – as long as they allowed their people to suffer – there would be no healing Talbor.

Kane sighed heavily as his post near the statue of Draco Ferdinand in central Maceron. Such introspective monologuing and depression was exhausting. And distracting. He looked up at the statue next to which he posted himself. What a shame that the artists couldn't capture the serpentine eyes that he brandished, or his forked tongue. A pair of footsteps and clatter of armor approached him from the side, and Kane turned to face a friendly face at the sound of a man clearing his voice. It was Oscar.

“How're you doing, cap'?” He said with a smile. Rosy cheeks almost as red as his curly hair was quite a peculiar sight to behold of a man decked in some of the heaviest armor in the guard. Most guards had to share a uniform, but as G-2, they did at least have the perks in wearing and using what they excelled in.

Kane just met him with a gentle smile. “I am doing fine. Thank you.”

Oscar appeared to pick up on his solemn mood, and went to take his mind off Draco Ferdinand. “So, you know how you had me posted by the front gate, right?”

“Yes?” Kane replied as he narrowed his brows.

“Right, right – before you get upset about that, I got Alexander covering for me. So like I was saying. Just before the front gate, there was this noble-looking fellow, right? Obviously not from around here, probably from Nepharie or something. He was an <span class=""bb-i"">absolute goon.</span> He was talking to a cat and everything. But no, listen, not just <span class=""bb-i"">talking</span> to the cat, but he was <span class=""bb-i"">angry</span>. A full blown argument.”

Kane raised a suspicious eyebrow in response. “That sounds... fictitious.” 

“Look, I know that, <span class=""bb-i"">I know.</span> But it happened. He's probably not right in the head or something... but that's not all! This cat, you see – perfect timing, I kid you not – projectile vomited all over his face. A whole big spiel, a big rant – just dismissed in the most perfect way possible. By a cat. I don't know if I'll ever be able to beat that.”

“I don't think I can believe all that.” Kane said, sounding slightly unamused.

“Okay, well, just trust me. I let him in and he should be walking around town. I don't think you'll be able to miss him.”

“Oh. So, assuming this isn't another joke of yours, we now have a crazy person roaming Maceron?”

Oscar only shrugged. “No crazier than the lot we already have. Really, he might be a few ingots short of a beam, but I believe he's harmless. Not like... the kind of people already here, you know?”

Oscar managed to crack a smile out of Kane, but it was one more solemn. A smile of pity for the city's sake. “You're right about that. I'll give you that one.”

The two of them walked away from the city square, turning their backs to the statue of king Draco Ferdinand. As the two walked down the brick-layed streets – an unfamiliar viewpoint, as they had always rode on their horses inside of town back when they were knights – they acknowledged the expressions of the people they walked past. Once they were full of awe and respect, and admiration. They still wore those faces even now, but they were impure expressions. They now also bore pity in their faces, and sympathy. Once great Knights of the Ram reduced to guardsmen. The common idea of thinking that being a guard even remotely amounted to anything resembling a knight was borderline heresy. Disrespectful. And to reduce a knight to “simple” guardsmen, the common folk felt, was to add insult to injury. And perhaps to some knights, that'd be the case. Not for G-2.

True knights served the common folk, were honorable, and abide by the code of chivalry. Nobility had nothing to do with that, and even as guardsmen, they were greater knights than even Sir Rudolph Fallon. At least G-2 served the people for the people's sake. All five of them shared this sentiment. They had become brothers since they shared a bottle of Bounevialle wine one night, and since then, that bond had not even wavered. Kane looked up at the sky to see another black cloud. Not one from inside the city, but further off. Red Legion. To keep Kane's regiment within the walls was an insult to their skills. Ferdinand probably wants an eye to be kept on the regiment, to be sure they didn't run off and perhaps return with an army. He could still take advantage of this though. Garnering the support of the local citizens. That's what was most crucial. The rest could wait.

The peculiar sounds of squealing and mooing echoed out further down the road. Kane and Oscar looked at each other, puzzled, and hurried their pace. Moving around the corner, they saw the cause for commotion. A large, burly centaur – likely the one that they saw marching through the gates earlier today.

“Oh come on! You can have her back afterwards...” His heavy voice droned.

A small elven farmer was nearby and mortified. “No! Leave Daisy alone! He's trying to have it off with my cow! Someone help!”

""This is so wrong..."" Oscar muttered.

Another young man in armor came marching in to his rescue. It was John, from Kane's own regiment. “Hey!” He shouted at the centaur. Of course it was him. Nobody outside of G-2 would have bothered to help.

“John!” Kane called out to him. He and Oscar approached the scene as well. With the centaur trying get frisky with a cow, a distressed elf, and three-fifths of the esteemed G-2 regiment present, the alleyway was starting to gather quite a bit of attention. Kane was perceptive of this and the forming crowd. If he could get through this without instigating a fight, that'd be ideal. John looked over to see his captain, and gave him a nervous smile. Kane simply nodded to him in praise and looked up at the tall centaur to handle this matter himself. Oscar stood next to him with his arms crossed.

“What seems to be the problem here?” Kane interjected, his forceful voice projecting over the background noise and carrying through the air. He damn well knew what the problem was; it was a tagged cow belonging to the farmer, and the centaur couldn't get a hold of his fetishes. This was protocol, however.

“He's having his way with my Daisy!” The old elf cried. “Get him to stop! T-this... this isn't right!”

Kane nodded and looked up at the centaur. He was mostly unfazed, but he was worried about the possibility of such a large creature getting angry and having a fight break out in this busy street.

“Sir?” Kane said in his address to the centaur. “If this is indeed the case, then I cannot permit you to continue this behavior. If you back away from... Daisy, now, there won't be any issues. I'm sure you'll find plenty of undomesticated cows out in the countryside.”</div>"

“According to the guards, there is an army outside of the gate.” Iro said “They are called The Red Legion. I have heard of them before. They’re an army operating out of a kingdom known as Ignion in the Wilderness. They’ve been attacking colonies and burning them to the ground. No one knows what happens to the survivors. They apparently are using some strange magical weapons as well, like crossbow-like weapons which fire slugs of metal and machines that shoot burning boulders of iron.” 

Mitos, however, had no interest whatsoever with boulders of iron or burning colonies. Mitos was hungry; Mitos was always hungry; and when Mitos was hungry, the sole sensory reception which he cared about was his nose. He smelled a scent from nearby and, as Iro spoke, began to waddle off towards the smell of freshly-smoked sausage. He began to waddle down a narrow alley, bumping into wooden crates and knocking over barrels as he wandered, his eyes closed and his nose in the air. He came to the end of the alley, where he smelled some kind of person. They smelled quite familiar, like the trees at home, and one of the blue glowy-thingies was with them. Mitos liked the blue glowy thingies; they made the berries on trees grow faster so that Mitos could eat them and they were always so nice. Maybe the person and the glowy thingy could tell him where the food was. Mitos walked up to the person, who seemed to be trying to blend in for some silly reason, and nudged their leg with his gargantuan head, hoping to get their attention. 

<div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""gold"">Apollos</font>, <font color=""#9966cc"">Asher Stormfront</font>, <font color=""slateblue"">Arya</font>, <font color=""forestgreen"">Tucker</font>, and <font color=""olivedrab"">???</font></div> 

“So, where are you guys headed?” Apollos asked. The four travellers were now arranged differently, with Arya and Tucker sitting across the empty table from Apollos and Asher. Tucker had his arm lazily slung around Arya’s shoulders, and with his free hand he haphazardly played a simple tune on a flute. Asher winced every time he hit a high note, and stared at the flute with resentment. 

“Oh, uh…” Arya began motioning her hands awkwardly in an attempt to convey whatever she was thinking. “It’s funny you ask that, see, as Tucker said about our quest. The problem is we… accidently burned our map. We managed to find the capital out of sheer dumb luck. If we hadn’t flipped the coin fifteen times at every fork in the road we came across we’d probably be in the north lands or in the middle of the woods right about now.” she said, a whimsical grin on her face at the situation they were in. Tucker’s lips tugged upwards, but he didn’t stop playing, rather he removed his arm from the elf’s shoulders and began to actually play seriously with both hands. He was good. Very good.

“Exactly how did you manage to do that?” Apollos asked, smiling. The man was approaching closer from behind Asher. That sound, the high-pitched droning of the flute, it maddened her. 

""Uh, lets say that I didn't feed someone enough and she got pissy."" Tucker said, cutting his song to answer Apollos' question. ""Why do you ask? Planning on coming along for the adventure?"" By this point Arya's face was being cradled in her hands, propped up by her elbows on the wooden table. She could deal with Tucker, but two men of similar caliber? She was tempted to off herself right there. Before anyone else could speak up, however, a low growling voice came from behind Asher, startling her. 

“Excuse me,” the large hooded figure said “Did you say that your name was Stormfront?” Asher turned around and gasped; it was him! She had heard rumors that her father had sent another man to come and find her, but now she knew these rumors to be true. She locked eyes with Apollos, who pulled his sword from where it stuck in the table and cracked his neck loudly. 

“Who’s asking?” Apollos snapped back. 

""And now we're drawing weapons. Brilliant."" Tucker said, leaning back in his seat and turning around to watch the spectacle. Arya's eyebrow shot up, and her lips tugged into a small smile. She turned around to enjoy the show as well, after all she had front row seats. The man in the hooded cloak, however, did not seem to be interested in fighting. As Apollos moved to swing his sword at him, the man grabbed him by the wrist, wrenched the sword from his hand, and shoved it back into the table. The man’s hood fell down, revealing a distinctly Orcish face and long black dreadlocks streaked with grey. 

“So this is the who you replaced my Kjed with?” Bjorn Svero said, hoisting Apollos in the air by his arm and appraising him as if he were a large fish “Shameful.” 

“Bjorn!” Asher’s terror was replaced with elation as Bjorn dropped Apollos and embraced her warmly. A moment or two later, Asher’s elation turned into concern, and she looked up from the embrace with confusion in her eyes. “Why did you come and find me? Is something rotten in Ensom?” 

“No, but there is something rotten in Tithe.” Bjorn said “I’ve come up north to investigate a dangerous group of men known as the Red Legion. It is said that they fight with weapons more powerful than any others in Tithe, and have vowed to burn all magic to the ground.”

""Well, while this goes down, I'm going to go outside and make sure someone doesn't get upset at the noise."" Tucker said, promptly standing up. ""Good, I'll make sure no one dies. Tell Cali we're all good.""Arya replied curtly with a nod of her head. As Tucker walked towards the door, there was a shout of surprise and some kind of reptilian roar that made Apollos’ hair stand up on the back of his neck. He knew that roar. It was the roar of a…

“Dragon!” a man called from outside. Immediately the bar was drenched in chaos. Apollos grabbed his sword from where it was stuck in the table and, shoving several people out of the way, sprinted towards the door. 

“I’ll take care of it!” he shouted “Or my name isn’t Apollos Dominico Claudio del-” the rest was cut off as he exited the building. 

""Fuckin' shit."" Tucker said, racing out the door only a few moments before Apollos did. Cali was on the roof, and he didn't want to bring her down to the ground where everyone could take a swing at her. Dragon scales or not. He looked to his right, seeing the horse stalls (which were barren of horses) and to his left, where... A scorpion around the size of a small house rested comfortably.

He didn't have time for this shit. Apollos had run out the door by now and Tucker took the horse's route, sprinting towards it's wall and planted his foot on the wall, taking a solid step upwards. This gained him enough height to pull himself onto the roof of the horse stalls. He jumped from the stall to the roof of the tavern, quite nearly falling off as he landed on the steeper incline, and was snatched up by his own dragon as soon as he stood to his full height, at as speed almost too fast to be properly registered. Apollos was taking the long route, attempting to scale the side of the building. He didn’t know what the mad bard was trying to do, but he certainly wasn’t going to let another dragon get away. Arya, at this point had fought her way out of the tavern, and used the hook end of her staff to grab Apollos' ankle and pull him onto the ground.

""Wait."" she said. Arya held Apollos as staff-point for a few more moments before pulling it back to herself. ""There is more to this than you think.""

As if it was a theatrical performance, several powerful gusts of wind began kicking up dust and pebbles. Some of the men who had grabbed their weapons and come outside the tavern had to steady themselves against the beats. A huge shape blocked out the sun for a moment, before it landed about sixty feet away from Apollos and the tavern. A large and brilliant scaly and feathery blue creature. The sheen to it's scales and horns meaning it was very well taken care of. It had two huge wings, which folded neatly on its flanks, and two huge and muscled back legs that put the creature at, at least ten feet tall. Each tipped with four taloned toes. It had a long neck and a large three foot head, with two large horns coming out of the back of it's cranium. It's whole body was balanced out by a large and thick tail which was tipped in the signature arrowhead that nearly all dragons had.

A wyvern. Upon it's back was a saddle, and on the saddle sat the bard.

""This is who I didn't feed enough, by the way."" Tucker proclaimed to Apollos. ""Cali, these people won’t harm you if you don't harm them, that a deal?"" Tucker said, leaning forward and patting the back of the dragon's neck. The beast rumbled, but made no sudden moves, seemingly intent on watching the few humans before it. Bjorn and Asher exited the building and Apollos struggled to his feet, swords in both hands. He was about to attack when he realized that this was no normal dragon, but a domestic one, the kind he had only heard legends about. 

“You’re a dragon rider!?” Apollos shouted. 

""I'm nothing special."" Tucker said firmly. He patted the Wyvern's neck, which lowered itself somewhat as Tucker slid off it's side. ""She could probably leave at any time. She's the special one. I'm just a bard lucky enough to call her my friend."" He continued. ""But I guess technically you could call me a rider, yes.""</div>"

Bartleby suddenly let out of violent sneeze as the noble proceeded down the clustered streets of Maceron, shivering, the man heavily began to rub his arms and look around him, noticing the gates behind him were now completely locked down, there was smoke and ash all around and it was colder than ever before, Bartleby couldn't help but let out another whiny groan, while at the same time, his hand as if possessed quickly and without thought swiped under a market stall, snatching what appeared to be a cold, slightly frozen apple from the stall, in the chaos nobody was able even to see the deft hands of the lordly coward, and despite his cowardly nature, his addiction to ""acquiring"" goods that were not his own acted purely on his own instinct, a trait of his kleptomania. 

Bartleby took a heavy bite out of the apple and slowly chewed on its distasteful flavor, grimacing with each bite he regretfully savored, speaking with his mouth full of the chewed up mush, looking to his right to speak to the boulder that loomed over his shoulder, as heavy as a large rock, years of treatment helping Bartleby persevere its weight, and luckily having not crushed him into a fine paste. 

""Yer' Know...! Shumtimsh, I carnt herp but wanner... Ish somefin off about thish shity?"" He asked questionably to the fat boulder, the gelatinous mass of fur and cat simply replied with a droll and uninterested meow, and quickly snatched the apple with its fangs and engulfed the half the remaining apple with a single snatch, before the feline reared its head back and with a putrid gag, vomited the apple onto the stone cold streets of Maceron, hissing at it for its disgusting taste, Bartleby raising an eyebrow at his companion before swallowing the half of apple he had been chewing for an unreasonably long amount of time, speaking up to his cat with a hint of sarcasm, while continuing to casually head down the street, sliding odd trinkets and little odds and ends into his pockets, with the people around him none the wiser as his hands slithered and snatched snake like their odds and ends from their pockets, like a phantom. 

""Oh wow! Disgusting apple that has been lying in a market stall for god knows how long tastes bad? Golly gee, shin, I'm glad you solved the mystery of that one! What's the next on the agenda, shin? You going to tell me that licking your own ass tastes like it? B- because if you are, you might be in for a shocker, but I can already guess that would be the case!""

The rotund ball of lard simply let out a couple of meows, which made Bartleby grimace, twirling a small necklace around his index finger casually, his other hand laid upon his hat, as he fixated it upon his head, making sure it wouldn't fall off.

""Oh right, there was no honey. Of course, put anything on honey and its edible to you...! Gods forbid, I drenched you in honey, you'd eat yourself! Come right up, one and all to the the self devouring cat for only fifty Reon Look at his work, Ye mighty and DESPAIR!"" He spoke in a ham like way, pointing to shin with annoyance, deciding to look at his cat for a reaction only to find it planting its tongue against his cheek, attempting to lick away the taste of the apple which caused Bartleby to give off an odd yelp of surprise, his hand pushing against the fat boulders face of blubber, pushing it away from him.

""BANYEH?! Q-quit it you lardaceous little limp-dick louse!, I don't need to taste like possibly rotten apple, and fat cat at the same time! Uggh, I need a damn bath... Preferably a nice hot one, without the smoke and ash and, wait, why is everything smoking?""

For the first time, Bartleby decided to actually look at the expressions of the people around him, as many were hurrying along and were afraid, and guards were in their heavy numbers leading them away, much more that would be needed for a street, it's not as if they were preparing for...

""Oh god their preparing for an attack"" Bartleby squeaked with a high pitched sissy like voice, his face losing some of its colouring, and his hands began to quiver, the man letting out a light, small chuckle, his voice quivering each time, speaking up again only with a whimpier, and almost mute tone of voice.

""O- oh f- f- fu- fu- fucking c- c- c- come on...!"" Bartleby expressed cowardly, looking to shin with anger and depression.

""your fault"" He bitterly spoke

""Meow"" Bluntly retorted the boulder of fat.

""Shutup"" Rebuked Bartleby.

Bartleby then quickly proceeded to walk, hastily pushing past people as he walked on, muttering to himself while he tried to go forward as quickly as possible, saying something new every time he moved past an individual in the crowd in a panicked yet polite and nice tone, despite some of his words.

""Excuse me, fuck off, pardon me, one sec', stop moving, stand aside, thank you, screw you...!""

He then heard the voice of the screaming farmer and the centaur, hearing what each of them had to say, he opened his mouth in horror to what the centaur was claiming to want to do, and in a panic, he held his hands up to his chest and spoke.

""Oh hell no...!""

Bartleby heading on away from the crowd and when it soon died down, he decided approaching where Iro and Morag were a few minutes or so later, only to hear Iro speak up.

“According to the guards, there is an army outside of the gate. They are called The Red Legion. I have heard of them before. They’re an army operating out of a kingdom known as Ignion in the Wilderness. They’ve been attacking colonies and burning them to the ground. No one knows what happens to the survivors. They apparently are using some strange magical weapons as well, like crossbow-like weapons which fire slugs of metal and machines that shoot burning boulders of iron.”  

What Iro said made his stomach twist and yet oddly sooth, when he heard of the weapons used, technology was always a profitable business and it peaked his curiousity, walking up to both Morag and Iro hesitantly, his presence easily spotted by his companions huge body atop of his back.

""Y- you said there's an army approaching? The Red Legion? W- well that's uh... So... You guys are going to ... kill them all right? It'll be like a poem, you rush in, beat them all and, I won't have to actually have to fight or anything will I? It's just... because if i'm honest with you, I like the sound of that, well I don't but I these weapons your speaking of... Crossbow like? Slugs of metal? Well, if I could help in anyway, please, let me be of assistance...! I think I could really help you out...!""

Bartleby coughed and stood proudly and decided to speak up and swallow his cowardess, he needed money and he needed to look past his cowardness, atleast for now, he wanted these weapons and thus, he spoke.

""Bartleby Sterling, at your service! Ignore the boulder, if there's anything I can do to help with say, negotiations or such, think I could be of any help? I think you'll find my talents very appreciative, along with my many fighting and sneaking skills! How about it?""

Bartleby then began to think to himself.

 - <span class=""bb-i"">""Oh god, please let them buy into this, I want those weapons... all I have to do is get close enough, snatch some of them and sell them... couldn't be any harder than that... r- right?""</span>-</div>"

“So, you see, the strength potion really is tricky. Shave off some of the keratin from the bear's claw, take the barley milk you've been soaking the poppy seeds in, and mix it in with the egg yolk – that's reason why I can't drink most strength potions, you see, I'm allergic to eggs – and finally, whisk in that, uh, jelly. Yeah, that. It smells because you have to let it sit and ferment for a while.”

Wizzlebee was in middle of showing a young tyke the process of developing a strength potion, and it was safe to say, he probably wasn't being entirely honest about the ingredients. The egg yolk was only partially true, while in reality, it had been sat in a metal bowl of orcish adrenal glands, the neurons of which Wizzlebee had enflared and excited with some light magic via electrical pulses. The secretions were incredibly high in testosterone. As for the jelly? An outright lie. It was the emulsified blood of a centaur.

“Then it's just a big process of heating the mixture and then cooling it. The end product is something of a runny jelly, but it is extremely potent! Especially for a young'n like you, just take sips at a time. One small sip a day and it'll bolster your growth!”

The kid just gave the weird old gnome a toothy and rosy-cheeked grin from ear to ear. “Thanks mister! I bet Blake won't make fun of <span class=""bb-i"">me</span> anymore!”

“Uh oh...” The alchemist mumbled as he watched the child march out of his shop. Now that he thought about it, didn't poppy-seed infused barley milk, aged alcoholic jelly, bear claw, and a yolk act as something of an anesthetic? Something like a drunken stupor, where jelly immediately intoxicates the drinker, the milk numbed the body, and the yolk and claw just gave the body enough energy to remain conscious. Really, it was an excellent poison if you wanted to dispose of somebody without actually harming or killing them. They could see and think and everything, they just couldn't walk or move or speak.

It rivaled paralytics in effectiveness, but lacked the neuronal damage that it often caused.

“Hey!” A feeble and croaky voice shouted out from beneath the floorboards.  Wizzlebee bent over and looked through a little hole that was in the planks. There, below the deck, stood his skeletal father with his hands on his hips. “If you're done selling fake drugs to children, I'm gonna need your muscle down here!”

“Shh! Shh! Keep quiet!” Wizzlebee insisted frantically as he saw potential customers lingering just outside the shop's door. “And what do you mean muscles, pappy? I'm a hundred and sixty and covered in wrinkles!”

“I don't HAVE muscles!”

“You also don't have vocal chords! Make it work!”

“I swear to--”

“Shh! Just keep it down!”

The swung wide open again. He saw only a handsome young man hurrying inside. He wasn't exactly interesting in any of the stock, per se, more along the lines of  “soiled pants and unadulterated terror as he ran balls to the wall”. The gnome looked at him curiously. “What's the matter, Bonny?” 

The young man, for a moment, looked at Wizzlebee incomprehensibly; almost offended. He then shook his head and peered out the window before finally spitting out, “...dragon!”

“What?!” Wizzlebee cried incredulously.

“What?!” Echoed the voice downstairs.

Immediately, Wizzlebee rushed over to the door and poked his head out the door. Just before looking up, he saw a great shadow being cast over the ground. Looking up, he just saw a silhouette of a giant flying beast circling overhead, against the sunny blue sky.

Wizzlebee squealed in terror and retreated back inside, slamming the door, and bracing it with his body.

A dragon?! He hasn't seen or heard of dragons since the stories of the hundred-year war back in Ostracus! How evildoers would fly down from the sky on their devil-steeds, scorching the land and troops with searing fire! Stories about how the dragon riders tamed the beasts through torture and dominance, and asserted their will over the most fearsome creatures of Tithe. Stories how, even without their dragons, the riders themselves were nearly as deadly and unforgiving.

This was of course the war propaganda that had been perpetuated, and even to this day, still is perpetuated among the Ostracus gnomes. His father, Bartleby de LaShtüp, would perhaps have greater reason to fear dragons than Wizzlebee did. The old man was probably alive for it, after all. If not, then <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> father. Wizzlebee has long since come to terms that Ostracus was an estranged nation that was considered an outsider among the the current collection of countries... but he still could not forget the stories. Perhaps sixty years of condition within those Ostracian walls were enough to instill and maintain the fear of dragons. Not... that it was... <span class=""bb-i"">hard</span> to be afraid of dragons. Any sensible man or gnome would be afraid of dragons! The riders? Well, any aspiring rider must have a death wish or something.

On the other hand... this was an amazing opportunity. How often did Wizzlebee have access to dragon scales? Hair? Teeth or claws? Skin off the tongue? Blood?  Oh goodness, the potions he could make! The discoveries! Perhaps he could find a cure for the magical disease that one strange minotaur man had. That would just be fantastic.

Given people's fear of dragons, who knew how they would react? Some might even try to... kill it. That itself meant a huge supply of resources and ingredients, or... <span class=""bb-i"">instead</span>... 

“Fufufufu...”

Oh... man, oh, man. Wouldn't his necromancy love to get its hands on that? It would probably take a while. He's never worked on something so... <span class=""bb-i"">big</span> before.

But he wouldn't outright kill it, no. Gods, how could one even kill a dragon? Yeah, Wizzlebee had a store full of potions and poisons, but no. No, no, no, no, no. Wizzlebee wouldn't get anywhere near that. Too risky, too scary. Let someone else deal with that.

“I'll be right baa-aack!” Wizzlebee called out.

“O-okaaay...!” The voice downstairs whimpered back.

The gnome stepped outside the door and looked back up overhead. It was gone. He felt his heart drop.

Hearing the conversation nearby, much thanks to some man yelling out “you're a dragon rider?!” - why that person felt the need to point out the obvious was none of the gnome's concern, all Wizzlebee could wonder was why a dragon rider was flying around the city like that scaring people. Dragons were frightening! Still, there was something compelling about the beast. Never having before seen one, Wizzlebee couldn't help but inch closer and closer at the sight of it.

“Oh boy, oh boy...”

Three quarters of his concern was his fear of the dragon. The remaining quarter is that the people who surrounded it, they themselves, also seemed dangerous and not particularly friendly. Save the one carrying a lute, but sitting on top of the dragon didn't help his amiability.</div>"
15969,Under the Red Sun,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76105-under-the-red-sun,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced']",2015-02-20 23:03:00,Fat Boy Kyle,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#92278f""><div class=""bb-h1"">Honoria</div></font>
When the nervous barman finally finished in the basement Honoria let go of Colubra’s reigns and found herself looking back through her own eyes. The Inn was still dark and clustered as it had been moments ago, and the tasteless bread still sat half-eaten on the small wonky wooden table in front of her. She had half expected someone to approach her while she was vulnerable, but knew that if anyone was silly enough to touch her that she would snap out of her link and that her trusty companion would no doubt quickly come to her aid. And if there’s one thing you don’t want to do, it’s piss off a giant shadow-snake. 

“Bjorn!” exclaimed one of the girls from the nearby table. <span class=""bb-i"">‘Still making lots of noise then’</span> thought Honoria as she looked towards the group again. There was a large Orc with them now and he seemed to be holding one of the human men in the air… which tugged the edge of her lips upwards. Honoria listened in intrigued, hoping that the newcomer would crush the little annoying man but was left feeling disappointed when he instead dropped him and proceeded to hug the girl. <span class=""bb-i"">‘What a let-down.’</span>

“No, but there is something rotten in Tithe. I’ve come up north to investigate a dangerous group of men known as the <span class=""bb-b"">Red Legion</span>. It is said that they fight with weapons more powerful than any others in Tithe, and have vowed to <span class=""bb-b"">burn all magic to the ground.</span>”

<span class=""bb-b"">Red Legion. Burn all magic to the ground.</span>

The words stuck in Honoria’s head and her traumatic memories viciously resurfaced, throwing off her concentration. She could feel the burning chains around her, she could smell the gunpowder, taste the blood, hear the laughter… and see Young Bark being burnt to the ground. She violently shook her head and wiped the tears from her eyes, but looked up to find that the group had left the inn. “Fuck!” she hissed, before jumping from her chair and chasing them out of the building. She barged an unfortunate patron onto the ground as she sprinted across the room, and found herself blinded as she escaped the dark tavern and was hit in the face by the now unfamiliar light of day. 

“Argh!” she moaned, covering her eyes with her hands. “Where’s the Orc! Tell me of the Legion!” she demanded, unable to yet see the scene she’d walked into (let alone the Dragon). 

<font color=""#a36209""><div class=""bb-h1"">Kuruk</div></font>
<blockquote class=""bb-quote""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/leonerdo"">@Leonerdo</a></blockquote>
Despite the farmers pleas, Kuruk continued to harass the innocent cow and was getting more excited by the second. He seemed to notice a few people showing signs of disgust (and in some strange cases, intrigue) but it only served to amuse him further. <span class=""bb-i"">‘They must see how powerful I am. They admire me’</span> he thought to himself, rather deluded. He would have turned the strange spectacle into something much more disgusting then and there were it not for the sudden interruption. “Hey!” came a shout from a nearby knight. Kuruk turned to him and scoffed, seeing that the man looked a bit nervous.

“What seems to be the problem here?” interjected another voice from his flank before he could respond. Kuruk turned again to see another couple of knights approaching, both of which looked a bit more confident than the first. He could tell instantly which of them was in charge – it had to be the strong looking one in the fancy shining armour. It was a standard of armour that Kuruk could only dream of acquiring, thanks to the prejudice and high costs of making custom centaur armour. 

“He's having his way with my Daisy! Get him to stop! T-this... this isn't right!” begged the little elf man again, which seemed to prompt the knights to move closer. Kuruk noticed this and suddenly felt his heart beat begin to speed up. He didn’t like being cornered. 

“Sir?” said the knight in the big fancy armour. “If this is indeed the case, then I cannot permit you to continue this behavior. If you back away from... Daisy, now, there won't be any issues. I'm sure you'll find plenty of undomesticated cows out in the countryside.”

The knights edged ever closer as they said this, oblivious to the effect it might have on the short-fused beast. Kuruk snarled in response and stomped his front hooves heavily on the ground. It was the kind of pathetic act you’d expect to see a kid to do during a tantrum, but when performed by a giant 7ft centaur it was somewhat more intense and threatening. He straightened his back and pumped out his large chest before letting out his booming but coarse voice, “So you say that I can’t fight yet?! Now you’re saying that I can’t fuck either?!”

If people nearby weren’t watching the show before then they certainly were now. In fact there seemed to be a small semi-circle of people forming around them, much to the annoyance of many people that were still struggling to fight their way to safer locations. “Perhaps I should get some new armour?!” he barked at Kane with a sinister smile, clearly referring to the shiny shiny. He hadn’t yet reached for the large steal Warhammer slung across his back, but Kuruk was certainly prepared to if the Knights tried to make a move.

Meanwhile the elf crept away to the other side of his cow. “L-L-Let’s go Daisy” whispered the elf before frantically trying to pull the cow away, hoping to use the diversion to escape. 

“Moooooo!” moaned Daisy stubbornly, refusing to move.  

“Not now Daisy!” he whimpered.</div>"

Do you feel it?
 
The sands, they used to shift underneath his feet, but ohhhhh, Darsi. Now he's gone walkabout with his full-half on the duality of an arachnid. No, no, you're not listening, pay attention. This is <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> going to be on the test, so don't bother preparing yourself. The tent is filled to the brim with a plethora of smokes and fumes. Half of them are real, the other half don't even exist yet (Hh, but they will, or his name isn't Darsi, y'hear?). Dorak, Dorak, nowhere to be seen, save one and his other, in this great, big pot of horses and metal they and them have found below the brim circling. And you're <span class=""bb-i"">still not listening</span> you <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">cretin</span></span>. Don't complain when you fail everything, then.
 
Do you feel it now?
 
Darsi waved his hand through the wisps of various concoctions in the air, all of bright, varying colors which he could not even see very well. It smelled like all of Dorakis in there, and if that fat, snickering Dorak had any say in it (which he did), soon it'd smell like all of Tithe whenever he lights this skora-boat ablaze. Making it burn them, yeah? Igniting fields of whatever in the joyful smells of... of...
 
Do you hear that? Sounds like fights.
 
Darsi slowly crept up from his hammock amidst the cluttered mess that was the brothers' tent. He lazily inched for the front flap, waving his hands, coughing some. Couldn't see half a turd, what with the gunk in his eyes from years upon <span class=""bb-i"">years</span> of inhaling incenses. Great ones, terrible ones, well-mixed and otherwise. Some were hashes, other were powders. All of them did something. They brought joy and relaxation, and soul-crushing anxiety. But they worked. On him, of course. On others? Well, he'd have to make some offers. Get people to sample the goods before he started selling them off. Maybe whoever was conducting these here fights would oblige him... save he's still high as the sky, though. Might be a problem, might not be. Let's call it a procedural adventure. He turned and grabbed a still-smoking incense while he was wading through the though.
 
He opened the flap up and took a whiff of the fresh, outside air. And then he looked around at all the commotion. There was a big, blue worm on the roof of the drinking house with a smaller, pinker worm riding on top of it. And there was a similar pink worm yelling at them. What on Tithe was HAPPENING HERE.
 
A question best left ignored, Darsi thought.
 
He jumped down onto the stone pathway below, incense still in hand, and still giving off a faint fume. He was <span class=""bb-i"">ridiculously</span> careful with the incense in his hand while the rest of his body bobbed and weaved like a drunken ragdoll. He wiped his nose a bit, snorting, before proceeding towards the scene. He heard the muffled sounds of words like ""dragon"" and ""rider"", which he mentally translated to ""dang gone"" and ""ripper"" for some reason. He approached one of the armed sausages, shuffling his feet, almost tripping. He was right next to the guy, giggling.
 
Apollos stared up at the massive dragon, practically craning his neck to see its head raised high into the air. He still had both sword drawn, but as the situation began to diffuse he lowered them. A strange smell reached his nose which he recognized from his time in Dorakis as insence, fumes which they used to intoxicate themselves. He had done it before himself, but he couldn't quite remember what it felt like. He turned to see a large Dorak, standing before the dragon and giggling. 
 
""I take it you've never seen a dragon before, then?"" Apollos asked him. He took half a step back from Darsi, trying to prevent the fumes from intoxicating him.
 
Darsi paused a moment before he simply burst out laughing at Apollos. ""Y-! You saids!"" He stammered out, ""Dra- HA, HAAAA!"" He keeled over, still keeping the bowl full of the potent incense balanced. After a moment he reared up and reached into the bowl, dabbing a bit of powder on his fingers. He held his hand up to Apollos and said, very calmly, ""Smells this.""
 
""I think I'll pass."" Apollos replied, moving his head back and pushing Darsi's hand away from him. He felt a smile coming to his own face as well, and his shoulders loosened a bit from the calmness which began to overtake him. Darsi paused and stared at Apollos with a stupid grin on his face for half a moment before turning his head upwards, at the blue worm and the potato riding it. He dabbed his fingers in the bowl again and raised his hand, calling out, ""Smells this!""</div>"

It didn't take the girls long to wish they hadn't left the warm confines of The Smiling Goose, the streets of Macaron were every bit as chilly as they looked through the inn's large, recently cracked window. The people here seemed erratic and confused too; charging into one another to get about and half of the populace seemed to be in hiding. As the pair witnessed an elderly shopkeeper flip a board outside 'Felicia's Flowers' from open to closed, making the last open shop on the street now equally as inaccessible as the rest, they quickly came to the conclusion that they wouldn't be getting much shopping done today. 

'I told you we should've stayed in! This place is strange...' Adelaide warned her sister before attempting to catch the attention of the shopkeeper but the woman just ignored her and scurried to what must of been her home. Now that she thought about it the lady seemed to be in a panic, ravaging her key chain menacingly and missing the keyhole a few times before finally unlocking the door, eventually squeezing through and slamming it shut.

'Surely it can't always be like this' Ciara responded, 'I reckon something's happened and that's why everybody's being weird, if we never slept in so late we might know what's going  on.' 

'Well whatever's going on I think we should just find Volak and get back to the inn before father.' Adelaide rarely got in trouble with her father but whenever she did Ciara was always right there next to her and the idea of wandering about didn't bode well in her gut. 

'Yes, ma'am!' came her sister's rather sarcastic response.

During their search for the vulture the severity of the situation started to become increasingly more apparent. The first passerby that mentioned a siege failed to catch the girl's attention but the next three did and by the fifth Adelaide knew that the duo were wandering around a city that was about to go to war. After searching most of the city Ciara suggested that Volak had already returned to the inn but Adelaide knew he was out there somewhere, after-all the bird rarely made a quiet entrance and Adelaide had a strange feeling he'd be enjoying himself in the midst of the unfolding chaos.

'ADELAIDE!!' She eventually heared her sister cry out. The girls had decided to split up in an effort to cover more ground. Ciara sounded as though she was in trouble and Adelaide found herself darting through the alleys faster than she'd ever moved. Thoughts of her younger sister being hurt raced through her mind, neither had been involved in a siege before and Adelaide didn't know what to expect, what could happen. As she dashed around another corner she knew her sister was close, now she was almost at the perimeter of Macaron and with the last corner came a horrendous sight.

Ciara stood bleary-eyed looking helplessly at her sister as Volak stomped around violently, pacing up and down before the tall outside wall of Macaron. The vulture had one wing flapping  ferociously into the air whilst the other rested limp at its side, Adelaide immediately noticed the trickle of blood turning a dark, dry colour on the pitch black feathers of the bird's injured wing.

'I tried to help him' her sister explained, almost sobbing 'but he wouldn't let me near him...'

'Its okay, it's okay, he'll be okay...' Adelaide assured her sister, and herself. 'He's just hurt, he's scared. Volak!' The bird immediately stopped his stomping when he noticed Adelaide, he turned his head to let her see the pain in his eyes, he WAS scared. She quickly moved to pick the bird up, 'it's okay boy, I know. I know it hurts, we're going to get you looked at I just need you to trust me, okay?' She asked whilst picking up the unusual docile creature.

As she comforted the injured vulture and started to look around for someone who could help everything that Adelaide saw and felt seemed to disappear into an obscure nothingness. The once foreboding castle wall felt like a small farm fence that felt homely and welcoming. The grey buildings and floor of the city changed to a pale orange colour and would whizz by turning into smoke as she passed them. She looked behind to see Ciara disappear from sight peacefully into the sky that was behind her now. 

She turned forward again to notice Volak limply resting in her arms, bloodied but calmly and curiously gazing into her eyes. It felt like hours that she spent exploring the vulture's mysterious eyes; darker than it's darkest feather they seemed to be studying Adelaide back, darting back and forth quicker than light but they weren't looking at her, they were looking into her. When she finally looked up it was too late and a large black mass quickly began devouring both her and Volak.

'AAaueeueeauua..' Adelaide made a nasally, gasping noise as she came to, panicked. The grey buildings and foreboding wall were back, Volak lay quietly next to her on the floor, thoughts and ideas filled her head once again and she noticed that she too was on the floor. She looked up to see a gigantic figure darker than Volak surrounded by people that seemed to be upset. As she wiped her eyes thoughts of the injured vulture seemed to take over once again and whatever situation she'd just bumped into couldn't be more important than saving the bird's life.

Adelaide looked up once again, this time she saw just how pissed off everyone was and quickly realised the gigantic figure was actually a fully armoured centaur. She figured that she must of run into the back of him somehow and judging by how far away Volak ended up it must of been pretty hard. <span class=""bb-i"">What just happened to me?</span> but before she could remember anything else she thought of the injured bird.

'He's hurt somebody help him please!' she begged to an audience including a thin, bright-haired human man with an overweight cat, another human with shining blonde hair and an aura of nobility and the same hulking black centaur that she just smashed into the back of. Adelaide got to her feet and offered the only thing she knew she could, 'I've got money, please! Lots of money just do something one of you! Please?!'</div>"

 The centaur had stomped one of his hooves defiantly against the brick-layed road, snorting in exasperation, and indignant in his posture. This was certainly not a good thing. While Kane kept his poise and Oscar reacting in little more than raising his eyebrows in interest – John, in the back, was slightly anxious; his dominate hand had one of his fingers twitching. It shown to his captain that John was all ready to go in case the situation went south. They all were.

“So you say I can't fight yet?!” The centaur  argued. “Now you're saying I can't fuck either?! Maybe I should get some new armor?!”

Kane found Kuruk staring at him smugly. Kane looked down at his own armor and back to the centaur. The corner of Oscar's mouth smirked as he briefly glanced at his captain. Kane maintained his stoic demeanor and his expression has not changed a sliver.

“Fighting, brawling, pugilism...” Kane began, “violence and assault of any sort, as well as acts of public <span class=""bb-i"">lascivia</span>, is not tolerated within the walls of Maceron, as decreed by the king of Talbor. If you do not cooperate with the G-2 division, then it is our solemn duty to subdue and detain you in the dungeons of Maceron.”

Kane's spontoon that had been in the resting position this entire time had now been erected, but not pointed at Kuruk. Oscar had taken his tower shield from his back and held it in his arm. John's hand rested on his sword's pommel. It was something of a tense moment, to be prepared for the centaur's outburst, but another interruption had come along.

“He's hurt! Somebody help him, please!” Kane's attention had shifted a moment, moving his eyes to the sound that was behind Kuruk. Kane placed his eyes back on the center as he steadily paced around the sensitive beast of a man to get a look at what was happening. A girl was huddling over something -  a bird, it seemed. A... bird. 

“I've got money, please! Lots of money, just do something, one of you! Please?!”

“John!” Kane hailed.

Almost instantly, and uncharacteristic of the anxious guardsman that had his hand on the pommel of his sword instantly stood erect with his fist saluted against his chest.

“Show her to the town's alchemist immediately, thank you.” He said.

“Yes sir.” John replied and hurried over to attend the elf girl with her injured bird.

Kane turned back to face Kuruk, slightly inconvenienced by the two situations in this short period of time. “As you can see,” Kane told him, “I am a busy man. I advise you to leave the scene and not cause any more trouble this day, or to leave the city. You have no third option.”

Meanwhile John knelt beside Adelaide and looked at the weak, limp looking vulture that was cradaled in the elf's arms. He was a bit stumped why she couldn't see there was already a situation, and that this much noise over a carrion bird seemed a bit over the top – he wasn't sure what she expected guardsmen to do to help – but he still had Kane's order to follow. 

“It's okay, it's okay, just follow me. I'll bring you tot he front door of our town's alchemist, okay?” John told her softly. He looked much more boyish than the other guards of G-2. His soft brown hair was parted down the middle and framed his face like a curtain, and his armor was rather much like that of a knight's, if a bit regular in its design and construction. “She's a sweet old lady, she'll fix your... bird... vulture, up in no time. I swear on my life.”

With that said, he began leading her away from the scene between Kuruk and the other two G-2 guards, Kane and Oscar. They'd be okay. He believed Kane along would be enough for him. With Oscar around too, the centaur would have to be a fool to fight them both. Especially in the middle of the streets of Maceron.</div>"

Whilst Kuruk stomped around in the tense stand-off and made his annoyance clear, he failed to notice the girl that bounced off his back-end. Though he felt something, he had assumed it had been the cow. “Fighting, brawling, pugilism... violence and assault of any sort, as well as acts of public <span class=""bb-i"">lascivia</span>, is not tolerated within the walls of Maceron, as decreed by the king of Talbor. If you do not cooperate with the G-2 division, then it is our solemn duty to subdue and detain you in the dungeons of Maceron.” Declared the fancy dressed knight before the two of them readied their weapons. 

<span class=""bb-i"">“Pfft!”</span> snorted Kuruk with a bit of a chuckle. He could tell they didn’t want to fight – someone would already be dead by now if they did. He would have reached for his own weapon at that point had the girl not started sobbing for aid; her weak and weary tone sapped his anger slightly, and he watched her get escorted away through the corner of his dark walnut eyes.

“As you can see, I am a busy man. I advise you to leave the scene and not cause any more trouble this day, or to leave the city. You have no third option.” Continued the knight, who seemed to be growing irritated by the stand-off. The other knight, the one with the shield, had grown a slight smile - one which Kuruk would have been elated to have wiped off. 

“You couldn’t hold me in some dungeon. I would <span class=""bb-i"">die</span> before I let a man put chains around me again!” he snarled. Unfortunately, his own mentioning of the word 'chains' reminded him of his captivity and this only soured his mood further. He locked eyes with the knight and saw no signs of wavering, no signs of fear or doubt. It might have been refreshing for him to have been in the presence of another warrior, especially after dealing with cowardly guards for weeks, but now he was focused on the man’s movements and what he would need to do should either of them try anything. The tense situation dragged on in silence for what felt like hours (though it was no more than a dozen seconds). “Fine!” he eventually growled with a light flailing of his empty hands, “But tell me, what is your name? And why won’t your pathetic king allow Kuruk or the guards to fight the Legion head on?”

The giant’s resignation helped to defuse the situation somewhat, which seemed to relieve and disappoint the small crowd in equal measure. With the tension loosening, the crowd continued to shuffle on away from the city’s walls along with the rest of the uneasy populace. The little elven farmer had also managed to get Daisy moving by now and they too quickly disappeared into the flow of traffic, leaving only the centaur and the two knights.</div>"

Adelaide was quite relieved when the blonde nobleman commanded one of his guards to help her. She found herself equal parts dazed and confused as the man the noble referred to as John helped her off her feet and took a brief look at the vulture. Adelaide couldn't help but notice that the man taking commands struggled to avert his gaze from the black, beastly looking horse-man who stood readied for battle, pissed off and it occurred to the mountain elf  that she'd just ran into a heated argument between the two parties. John was well armoured and confident, yet Adelaide couldn't be sure that if the centaur was to go berserk the knightly men would be able to deal with him.

'Sorry, I ... I don't know what happened, I just ...' Adelaide explained, trying her utmost to remember the details of the vivid trance she found herself in just moment before. Every time an explanation got closer to making sense it would disappear from her thoughts and she'd find herself getting lost trying to recover it. For now she needed to focus on what was in front of her.

'It's okay, It's okay, just follow me ma'am. I'll take you to the front door of our town's alchemist, okay?' He offered, Adelaide couldn't help but feel as though fighting a centaur was more pressing to these people than saving a life, yet they were kind enough to help and John seemed pretty confident that Volak would be fine so maybe it made sense and Adelaide was over-reacting. 'She's a sweet old lady, she'll fix your... Bird... Vulture, up in no time. I swear on my life.'

The thought of a fight potentially being more concerning to the men and the calmness demonstrated by the blonde captain and John both when confronted with the bloodied bird and a mountainous, armour-clad centaur stomping and huffing about seemed to sober Adelaide and she no longer felt full of emergency, just weak.

John ushered Adelaide gently towards a square in Macaron that she hadn't noticed whilst looking for Volak, as she moved she noticed the man was probably no older than herself. Flowing, chestnut hair parted Johns youthful and attractive face and maybe in different circumstances Adelaide might've wished she wasn't wearing the first plain green dress she found this morning. 

As the two approached the discrete, tucked away potions shop that the girls seemed to wander by previously without noticing John grabbed the door and rather chivalrously beckoned Adelaide to pass through first with the injured vulture, when she entered the shop it was unlike anything Adelaide had ever seen...</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Hmph? What foolish army would...</span> Morag-Nog thought to herself as Iro spoke. Until her entire disposition shift at the ""magic words"". The Red Legion. Her eyes widened, as she took steps towards him. Tapping her cane on the ground when she stopped. ""The Red Legion?! Here!?"" She asked Iro. This is incredible! The Red Legion, right at her doorstep. If she could get some fool to grab her some of their weapons... Only problem was that they were laying siege to the city. That she<span class=""bb-i"">just</span> so happened to be in. Crap! The look on her face had flipped over and turned into a frown. This presented a problem. Getting the weapons were nice.  They were worthless if she died before she could examine them. She placed her hand on her chin. Pondering for a moment what to do. Leaving here was the most sensible thing to do. But she doubt it'd be easy. Making a break for it without a mount would be hard with a bad leg. And the fact they had-

Some other fool walked up and started babbling. It was obvious he was listening in on their conversations. How rude. Her eyes drifted towards him, as she kept that frown on her face. It was hard not to get irritated. Morag-Nog knew his type, he was in some position of power. He was asking if the <span class=""bb-i"">mighty</span> knights of this city would come in and defeat the Red Legion. Hmph. With what, a flick of their wrist? The Red Legion is nothing like anything this.  He just angered her some more. ""What are you, some child?"" Morag-Nog asked Bartleby. She stood straight up and looked at him. ""Killing them won't be an easy task. They're too advanced, our best bet is to-"" She continued chiding him until his pet companion came within her gaze. What...? A large fat cat, following the Nobleman around. The creature was simply repulsive! She pointed at Shin, while looking up at Bartleby. ""What manner of creature is <span class=""bb-i"">that</span>?"" She had to ask.

Bartleby offered up his talents. Negotiations (Which would be useless). Sneaking (Which would have some use). Fighting (Which everyone on this damn planet knows how to do). What was he worth? Little. Which is why Morag-Nog is placing her faith more into Iro than Bartleby. But yet, there are ways she can work this conversation in her favor. She stood straight up - well, straight as she could with that leg. She slapped a hand over her chest. ""I am <span class=""bb-i"">Morag-Nog</span>, talented orcess inventor. If I can get my hands on some Red Legion weaponry, perhaps I can figure it out."" She realized how much worth she has to the world in their fight against the Red Legion. It may take a long time, but perhaps she could even the playing field. ""I will do all I can to assist."" <span class=""bb-i"">This city of liars and self-made men.</span> Morag-Nog thought to herself.

For now, she had to take Iro to the hospital. ""Now, I may not remember exactly where it is, but, I will lead you to the hospital, Iro."" Morag-Nog started walking toward it.</div>"

--------------------------------

Morag: ""What are you, some child?""

Bartleby blinked as the intimidating Orc woman started belittling him so suddenly, giving a high pitched eep at her stare, and simply taking it, trying to look as composed as possible, but giving out a quivering slight chuckle at her words, the eccentric man putting his hands up to his chest defensively and speaking up, obviously frightened but keeping a brave face on things as professionally as he possibly could.

""W- well no, i'm not a child! In fact i'm a grown man! U- uhhehe.. G- grown and well! N- no need to get so violent! I m-""

His words were cut off when the brutish Orc continued, tensing up and starting to bend his legs just slightly to begin running if the worse was about to happen, he then started to think to himself just before she began talking.

--------

<span class=""bb-i"">""Oh come on, I talk to the first person I see, and she's on the wrong day of the moon cycle! And it just HAD to be an Orc, oh this is just my god damn luck!""</span>

--------

Morag: ""Killing them won't be an easy task. They're too advanced, our best bet is to- What manner of creature is that?""


Bartleby suddenly sighed with relief and laughed a little before his laugh became much more depressing until he gave a sorrowful sigh, he was thankful that she wasn't going to rip him in half and dice him to bits, but to have his attention took over by the boulder on his back was just plain wrong, that, and even having to speak about his waddling Reon destroyer, gave Bartleby an unpleasant feeling, and decided to speak up with a little less enthusiasm.

""This? Oh... May I introduce you to my cat! The walking bastard! At least I hope he's a bastard, lord knows, if there's more of him around i'm half minded to set the world on fire to quell his clan of cat! Do cats have clans? Whatever! In any case, his name is Shin... I wish he didn't have a name, but they all have to have one, I can't exactly go around screaming ""cat!"" everywhere, right? All he thinks about is eating, and eating and eating more, oh and he knows what we're saying, so try to be nice, this thing'll crush you...""

The huge, boulder of fat on top of Bartleby's shoulders gave out a low and bored meow, whilst it breathed heavily, staring into Morag's eyes with its greedy, large ones, not even looking away from her and continuing to stare rather ominously, while Bartleby continued to listen to Morag speak.

""I am Morag-Nog, talented orcess inventor. If I can get my hands on some Red Legion weaponry, perhaps I can figure it out. I will do all I can to assist."" 

------------

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-i"">""ZOUNDS!""</span></span> Bartleby thought to himself. <span class=""bb-i"">""If she gets her hands on that tech, i'm out of a job! Easy Bartleby boy, easy, you can simply steal it before her! If she wants to race for tech, we'll just have to beat her before she beats us... Literally! For now, let us just come up with a way to ease up her suspicions!""</span>


-----------

Bartleby thought for a moment whilst he simply smiled and gave a bow, gripping the hat upon his head as he bowed with it, showing off his ginger set of swept back hair in the process, the male gave a closed smile and proceeded to speak again. He needed to bullshit into the system somehow, he had to keep his fear down and act proud and fearless, easier done than said, he was a born to be liar, and if there was one thing he was ever good at, it was that, and so, bartleby walked beside her as she began to walk away and smiled, his tone of voice totally changing from whiny and cowardly to more upbeat and excited.

""Oh don't you worry about me, lass! I'm Bartleby Sterling! One of the most famous men in all of Talbor! To not have heard of my feats is a insult to my work! You may think of me as some rag-tag simpleton but you have not seen anything yet! To not have me by your side would be sending you to your own death! And to have such a strong Orc woman die so shamefully would be tragic! Listen, those guards are wimps, they couldn't protect a cat from butter! But you, you're strong, powerful! You could do many things! I was testing you to see if you truly had brains, nobody wants to associate with a wimpy, half baked noble, right? I test people on their first meetings, and if you want those weapons, you'll need ME to help you get them! Never judge a book by its beautiful cover, but you don't have to decide now! I'l be around town and if you don't wish to die, don't let pride engulf your noble soul and feel bad about getting assistance, because with Bartleby Sterling, anything is possible, especially when it comes to the red legion... Have you ever killed one? The reason why i ask is because I have... and I happen to know a weakness of theres... don't know how long it'll last before they fix it, but I know it... Think it over, lass, i'l be in town, you'll know where I am, unless your too afraid to fight alongside a legend like myself, I understand, either way, ciao!""

Bartleby smirked and slowly walked backwards and around the corner, vanishing from sight of the orc and from Iro as he placed his back against a wall and wheezed, giving a muffled scream into his palms and looking downwards, giving a whimper as he shook in terror, WHY did he have to lie so heavily, and now if she finds out he's all talk, he's really going to lay into him! Bartleby couldn't help but picture the gruesome way he could die, and through all this he gazed down and whimpered in a low, mournful voice, walking away and shaking from the fear of what he was getting himself into.

""And... And now Bartleby... You've pissed yourself...!""</div>"

As Adelaide opened the apothecary door, a brass bell rung hollowly in the musty air. The inside of the shop was dark and small, with walls made of dark wood and two candlebraums on a large worn-down wooden counter at the back the only source of light. Around the perimeter of the small room were wooden shelves containing the strangest assortment of bottles and vials containing everything from pickled herbs to octopus tentacles. Four small windows filtered grey light into the room, and hanging by them were an assortment of herbs strung up to dry. At the back of the shop, behind the counter, sat an old woman who looked like she would crumble into dust if the wind blew too hard. She was tired and grey-looking, with a white shawl thrown about her shoulders and her grey hair tied into a bun. A pair of very thick spectacles rested at the end of her long nose. A large Russian Blue cat slept on her lap. She looked up as Adelaide entered the shop and stood up from her chair, causing the cat to awaken and, snarling, fall to the ground. It hissed angrily and slunk back into a corner under the counter, where it returned to sleep. 

“Good afternoon.” she said in a tired, heavy accent which was most definitely foreign “How may I help you?” 

---

Iro listened silently as Bartleby spoke, staring at his cat as he boasted about having killed a Red Legion member. The look of fear on his face told Iro that he was lying, but he wasn’t going to speak up and get in a fight with a nobleman. He waited for the man to slink back down an alley, and then turned back towards Morag. 

“I think that man was lying.” he said “Anyways, if you could lead me to the hospital now, I would greatly appreciate it.” They began to walk, Iro leaning some on his walking stick. He had travelled a long way, and his feet had grown quite tired, but he had work to do. <span class=""bb-i"">‘Hopefully I can keep this up.’</span> he thought to himself. Suddenly he stopped and realized that Mitos had disappeared. Knowing that silly reptile, it probably slunk down an alley and was begging for food from some poor passerby. 

“One moment, Morag.” he said. The he bellowed “Mitos!” A squawking roar came from an alley, and the turtle dragon came waddling across the street quickly, tripping several passersby as it ran. When it approached Iro it stopped and burrowed its head in his robes affectionately, though Iro knew that the dragon was only doing it to sniff out any potential food sources. He patted Mitos on the head and it looked over at Morag with a look that said “Do you have food?” It walked over and began to sniff around her, looking for something to eat. 

“Don’t mind him.” Iro said, smiling “He’s harmless so long as you’re not made of food. I believe I forgot to introduce myself, though. I’m Servant Iro Hesekar of the Order of Matrem.” He extended a hand to Morag “It is excellent to meet you.”

The division between me and Wesserius thins and thins daily. Only now as he lays waste to territories caught along his warpath to Maceron am I in a potential position to intercept him. Timing is the most important thing. If I am to execute any sort of operation against him directly then I must act without delay. At least for now, I have a direction. He is moving south. He will most likely pass through Talbor into Concordius, and then into Dorakis if he makes it that far. Come next nightfall, I will be making haste for Maceron. I must follow him. I must find him and make him talk. He is only my first target. I have much more to do in the near future.</span>

The Lord of Owls sets the quill aside and pauses for a moment before closing his leather-bound journal. He stands up, leaving it on the wooden desk. There is a small assortment of furniture in this cavern of his. As well, there are others around Tithe where he has once stationed himself. Some for days, some for weeks. He leaves nothing behind when he relocates, save for the furniture itself. In truth, he takes whatever he can carry from the encampments he infiltrates in the night.

He should be moving <span class=""bb-i"">now</span>. But the light of the looming sun will not allow it.

He turns towards Daronais, still seated and bound. It had been some hours since the interrogation. He grabbed the unconscious soldier’s jaw and propped his head up. His left eye where the crimson needle had laid its sting. Black, festering, stretching around his face. Halted now, but still quite a mark. The Lord of Owls takes his free hand and peels the eyelids open, revealing the swollen, milky-white mess underneath. The iris and the sclera have blended together. The pupil is gone, replaced with a puckered crevice where the needle once burrowed. Red stems creep from the back of the lids, reaching for the crevice. The whole thing – <span class=""bb-i"">disgusting</span>.

<span class=""bb-i"">Why</span> all this? The mark must be made apparent. Identifiable. <span class=""bb-i"">Known</span>. It will stay with him until he departs from this mortal coil. It will undulate and writhe and fill his head with whispers of horrid things and unbecoming instances. It will drive him unto the brink of sanity and anchor him before the edge.

A satisfactory effect.

The Lord of Owls detaches his hands from the soldier’s face. He adjourns to a separate table, where many, <span class=""bb-i"">many more needles</span> lay. All of them are comprised of an ornate metal, with a grip carved into an ornate decoration. Some are unpainted. Others are red. The rest are black. The crimsons’ purpose are known, and the unpainted? Purely mundane. The darkened… those come later.

He sifts through them, organizing them, placing them in piles and pouches. He occasionally glosses over at the archaic drawings and elaborations scattered about the desk, sitting by the lantern in the corner.

There is too much work to do.

But no one else will bear this mantle.
	
Only him.</div>"

When the centaur refused to be taken into custody, it only made the tension build in the alley. Oscar's normally joyful face had turned serious and Kane's expression and poise sank from a dignified to grim, albeit woeful of the coming altercation that would soon arise. He was fortunately proved wrong following the centaur's resignation, and the air itself no longer seemed to weigh a ton as it did before. The two guardsmen relaxed, and Kane rested his spontoon on his shoulder, where Oscar simply sat the bottom of the shield on the ground and leaned against it, once more adopting his silly grin.

“Fine!” Said the centaur as he threw his hands down.

“Bloody marvelous!” Oscar chimed, beaming a proud smile at Kane.

Kane, now feeling relaxed, briefly sighed to himself and looked to Oscar with mild amusement.

“But tell me,” the centaur continued, prompting Kane to look back at him, “what is your name? And why won't your pathetic king allow Kuruk or the guards to fight the Legion head on?”

Kane would have surrendered a guilty smile were he not on duty. Pathetic king. If there was any one thing in which he could consider himself alike to the brute before him, it'd be their mutual disdain for the king of Talbor.

“I am Sir--” <span class=""bb-i"">'Damn, I'm still doing that.'</span> “...Captain Kane Bounevialle of the G-2 Maceron guard division. Alongside me is one of my men, Oscar Gene.” Kane answered with a salute, a fist pressed squarely in the center of his armored chest. Oscar, with his smile, followed suit.

“I cannot say for certain what the king's motivations are... but the guards and the walls surrounding Maceron is this city's last line of defense, and therefore, are requiring of fortification. The soldiers in Talbor's armies are the offensive branch of this country's military, and are making preparations to mount an offensive as we speak. You are free to fight the Legion as you please, outside the name of Talbor. Though due to their superior numbers and weaponry, that would be foolish.”

“In layman's terms,” Oscar added, “we're working on it. You can throw as many rocks at the Legion as you'd like.”</div>"

It was a true test of self control to stop herself from poking out one of Bartleby's eyes during his... oh so <span class=""bb-i"">inspiring</span>, speech. It was all... <span class=""bb-i"">Aggravating</span>. She clenched her cane tightly. S kept looking him in the eyes - one of which she could availability poke out. It was almost like he was <span class=""bb-i"">mocking</span> her with how she talked tall. Morag-Nog closed her eyes. Killing Red Legion soldiers? Defending her? Ugh. But by the time she had opened her eyes, Bartleby was long gone. The fool ran off somewhere. She sighed, shook her head. Wondering whether she should have taken the opportunity to poke his damn eye out. She could handle herself fine, and, far as she could tell, so could Iro. Whether Bartlebey's claims had any merit was up for debate. But the real question is does she care? If the fool could kill the Red Legion, then good for him. If not, then he's of no concern to her. He's gone, going to ""back up"" his claims. 

While Morag-Nog is here, aiming towards real goals.

Like giving the world the means of defeating the Red Legion.

As Morag-Nog walked, Iro voiced his thoughts about Bartleby lying. Which were pretty much obvious. It's just that the Orcess didn't care enough. ""Hmph, anyone can boost...."" She said as she continued, with a limp that struggled to keep up with the much more healthy Iro. Fortunately, Iro said to pause for a moment. Giving the Orcess a much needed break. Though she pondered what could make such a stop necessary. She stared at Iro, as he called something. Mitos. Possibly some pet. Plenty of people who lived in Tithe had their own companion. Whether it's a horse, or a beast they have tamed. Morag-Nog herself wasn't a fan of such beasts. While they were convenient for travel, they were messy, and trashed her inventions. But, Morag-Nog was not prepared for whatever beast Iro had. Her eyes widened as it crawled down towards her. A Turtle-Dragon?! Morag-Nog wasn't too versed in the Bestiary of Tithe. She knew enough to know that this was among the rarest of all beasts.

Iro asked her if she had food on her. To that, she had to shake her head in response. That would state no, but did she look like the type that would be carrying food? ""Unfortunately, no."" She answered. Iro made her introduction, and she nodded her head. ""It is excellent to make your acquaintance, Iro."" She answered, and nodded her head. Yet, she thought it was a perfect opportunity to share her goals. In the faint hopes that someone else could help her. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, they say. So what does she have to lose if she tells someone her goals? ""Unlike that man, I meant everything I said back there. I am a inventor. One of the best. And I have made it my mission to get my hand on some Red Legion technology."" She stood straight up and tapped her cane on the ground. ""It is most likely Tithe's only hope of fighting the Red Legion on even grounds.""</div>"

Kuruk listened as the knights introduced themselves. <span class=""bb-i"">‘Kane – Shiny Armour’</span> he recited to himself, <span class=""bb-i"">‘Oscar – Smiley Man Child’</span>. He wasn’t good at remembering names… or faces… or much at all really. Life seemed to boringly treacle by when he wasn’t fighting, and he didn’t care to pay much attention. 

“I cannot say for certain what the king's motivations are... but the guards and the walls surrounding Maceron is this city's last line of defense, and therefore, are requiring of fortification. The soldiers in Talbor's armies are the offensive branch of this country's military, and are making preparations to mount an offensive as we speak. You are free to fight the Legion as you please, outside the name of Talbor. Though due to their superior numbers and weaponry, that would be foolish.”  

“In layman's terms,” Oscar added, “we're working on it. You can throw as many rocks at the Legion as you'd like.”

Kuruk wagged his dark tail subconsciously when he heard the words ‘mount’ and ‘offensive’, but he was otherwise disappointed at their suggestions. Even he wasn’t foolish enough to try fight a group on soldiers on his own, let alone an entire army. “There must be something Kuruk can do around here?” he moaned, “Can’t even fit in your fucking taverns! You are all too tiny!” It was true, given that the average human height was about a foot and a half smaller than him, that he was unable to enter many of the smaller buildings throughout the city. It wasn’t like he could just crouch around either, given he was a centaur. He was understandably getting bored of having to drink out the front of tavern in the cold, and of spending nights in the stables on the edge of town.

""For the last time, Apollos, no, I am not a dragon rider.""

Tucker remained mounted on the great blue serpent, which watched those around them with an uncaring glaze in her eyes. It took a step forward, seeing as the strange shouting half-primate had lowered it's metal sabers. Another mole-like creature was offering something to it. It's eyes no longer glazed with boredom, instead harboring a curious glint. She craned her neck and let her nose fall to the bowl and took a smell. Immediately she reeled back, rearing somewhat and forcing Tucker to drive her around the Dorak. The blue drake shook her whole body and seemed to shiver, but was otherwise okay. However, the loud half-primate once again got her attention. She got right up into Apollos' personal space, her large head taking in Apollo's scent as she kept walking, intent on pressing her snout into his sternum.

""Heel, Cali.""

""Well, that's a dragon, and you're riding it."" Apollos replied snidely ""What's that supposed to make you, a lion tamer?"" 

The drake stopped, growling lowly and turning back to face the man at the base of her shoulders. ""Good girl, let's not set anyone off. I dont want you getting hurt.""

At this point, Darsi, his purpose in life now set to getting the dragon high, wandered off into the tavern to find his sibling. ""Azuza wharms..."" He mumbled as he plodded towards the entrance. He gently placed the bowl of incense near the base of the door's frame, for reasons unknown. He stood back up and pushed forward. The door swung open as the intoxicated Dorak stumbled in, almost tripping onto the wooden floor beneath him. Most of the folks dotted around the stools and tables were peering out the front windows, wondering what all the commotion was outside. Darsi made a drunken bee-line through the central floor, bumping into tables and seated folks, too high to apologize. ""Woodses evil!"" He called out, snickering a bit before ending up right in front of Dosi, seated at the bar, alongside an unfamiliar lizard-face. He laughed some more before straightening his stance and saying, ""Lots funs going on out in theres.""

Dosi was... somewhat baffled, and at the same time, embarrased. ""Tooth..."" He said calmy, pinching his snout in shame. ""This is... my... brother. Darsi.""

Tooth took one look at the sibling and took in the scent of air around him. He cringed, and shook his head. ""He's high as a kite."" he said flatly. ""Althought I should've expected that... It's nice to... meet him?"" he said, trailing off as he didn't consider this the official meeting between the two. Being as he didn't know how differently Darsi was when sober. He tilted his head and looked over Darsi's shoulder to see the empty bar.

""I'm surprised no one saw the drake on the way here. I figured it was trained or something."" he said, shrugging. ""Oh well, free drink for you all, if you want them."" he wasn't a heavy drinker himself. He wasn't a happy drunk, but he sure could appreciate it when others were that way.

Darsi kept up that impeccably stupid grin on his face. He raised his hand and slowly inched his pointer finger towards Tooth, wagging it. It was homing in on the Saurian's chest, intent on poking it for absolutely no good reason. Tooth stood stock still, not really intending on moving unless Darsi legitimately started bothering him. The high-as-a-kite Dorak's finger made contact with Tooth's chest, and he retracted it after a solid few moments. Neither of the two said a word to each other. Dosi finally decided to speak up and ask his brother, ""What happened out there?""

""There's was, uh..."" Darsi began, trailing off a bit, ""A JERGAN outsides. It's was gohn tah eat this, this's wyrm with... SOHRDS, y'see? And I, and I-""

""Okay, nevermind."" Dosi interrupted, raising his hand. ""Darsi, this man here? His name is Tooth. He's a Saurian, and he's going to show us around the area a bit."" Darsi turned his head to Tooth once more and let out a ""Hah!"" He extended his arms and approached Tooth with the intent of hugging him. That didn't happen. Tooth simply held him at bay, rather easily, with one arm.

""Lets uh, lets let the touchy feely thing happen later."" Tooth said, laughing lightly at Darsi's behavior. Darsi chuckled as well, though it quickly turned to heaving, plus some keeling over. A few coughs, and he was back upright. ""Where's we gone?"" He asked, looking at Dosi. Dosi, subsequently, turned to Tooth. Waiting for an answer.

Tooth flicked his tongue and reached into his satchel at the question. He seemed to dig around for a minute before he let of a quick, ""There it is!"" and pulled out a piece of paper. When he unfurled it, a map of Tithe was drawn across the parchment.

""I'm easy,"" he said, ""Pick a city, and we'll head there. I'll show you the way and... well, show you around.""

Dosi passed a glance at the map in Tooth's hands. He shot Darsi a similar glance, and then back to the map. ""I..."" Dosi muttered, somewhat confused. ""We, uh... don't really have <span class=""bb-i"">any</span> idea what everywhere else in Tithe is like. And we only just got here, in Capital City. Karkada could use a bit of rest, too.""

""Then we can remain as long as you'd like. I'll show you the commerce centers so you can sell your..."" Tooth said, looking from Dosi to Darsi for a moment. ""...Sell your wares."" he said, shrugging. ""If you get in trouble with the law, I had nothing to do with it, agreed?""

""Oh, Darsi's well enough behaved."" Dosi replied, ""He's just...""

They both watched Darsi as he counted the fingers on his hands, waving them about.

""Whimsical.""

""I'll trust you on that.""</div>"

Iro shrugged his shoulders and sighed heavily, as if releasing a weight from his back. “So the rumors of their advanced technology is true.” he said “I had heard rumors that they possess crossbows which shoot shards of metal at enemies using fire, and massive wrought-iron contraptions which black boulders of metal through the air, but I assumed such things to be propaganda. But I suppose the threat is real now.” Mitos looked up at him with sad eyes as they walked and Iro patted him on the head. He’d best be careful not to frighten the small one. While Mitos seemed to care about nothing but eating, Iro knew that he was intelligent and could understand things better than one would expect. 

Soon they arrived at the castle, where a guard begrudgingly gestured Iro and Morag in the direction of the hospital, a long, church-shaped stone building extending from the castle’s central hall. The castle was stoic and grey, made of large blocks of stone and fortified at certain intervals with steel beams. The walls of the castle were all patrolled by guards wielding crossbows, and each entrance to the keep was guarded by six men and a wrought iron portcullis. The portcullises were opened, and the citizens of town were pouring in, all of them attempting to avoid the impending Red Legion attack. They heard what happened to Hadrentown in the mountains, and none of them wanted to experience that. Upon arriving at the main entrance to the castle, two guards wielding halberds stopped Iro at the gate entrance and a third man began to search Mitos. 

“What is the meaning of this?” Iro asked angrily. 

“We need to check you and your mount for any possible explosives.” the guard grunted in reply “We certainly do not want any spies getting into the castle.” 

“Spies?” Iro asked. 

“Yes, there have been a few reports of Red Legion agents sneaking around the city disguised as foreign travellers. We haven’t caught any yet, but someone like you-” 

“is obviously a Fairfolk high priest.” a lofty voice came from the inside of the castle great hall. The clopping of hooves on stone echoed around the cold walls as Sir Fallon approached. He was a high, haughty-looking man, slim and muscular with a perfectly-sculpted goatee adorning his upturned face. He wore a black leather jack of plates over a white linen shirt, with trousers on his legs and a pair of well-made black leather boots adorned with golden buckles. An arming sword with a ram’s-head-shaped pommel rested on his right hip. 

“Sir Fallon!” both guards went down on one knee. 

“This man is a Fairfolk, you knaves!” Fallon said to them “The Red Legion burns Fairfolk alive and puts their ashes in their gunpowder. Let the poor man through. I’m sure that he means no harm.” 

“Y-yes, m’lord.” the guards trembled “You-you may pass.” 

“Thank you, gentlemen.” Iro said, walking into the castle “And thanks to you as well, Sir Fallon.” 

“You’re certainly welcome, fair physician.” Fallon replied “These men will direct you to the hospital.” At the nod of his head, the men rose from their knelt position, whispered “yes, m’lord”, and began to escort Iro and Morag towards the hospital. 

“You do not have to accompany me, Morag.” Iro said “I don’t know what kinds of wounds I will find in this place, and some may be quite unsettling.” 


<div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""olivedrab"">Bjorn Svero</font> and <font color=""#9966cc"">Asher Stormfront</font></div>

As the scene involving the dragon unfolded, Bjorn stood at the front door of the Snorting Dragon, his arms crossed and his right hand a few inches from the pommel of his sword. The situation played out well, and no one was hurt. As he began to walk back into the bar, brushing past a Dorak and a saurian as he walked back towards his seat at the bar. Before reaching it, someone cried out loudly “Where’s the Orc! Tell me of the Legion!” Bjorn turned towards the source of the shout, a scantily-clad shade standing by the door to the bar’s cellar, and he frowned, angered by her flippant response. 

“In my land, we treat our elders with respect,” Bjorn growled back “but I suppose this is not my land. I know little of the Red Legion, but they attacked Talbor two weeks ago and it is said that they are preparing an attack on Nepharie. I have come here to attempt to learn more about them.” 

Asher, in the meantime, left the bar and removed her travelling cloak, revealing her butterfly-like wings folded against her back. She dropped the cloak on the ground near the entrance and, taking wing, fluttered across the courtyard, watching from the air as the scene unfolded. She landed next to an old gnomish man who was looking up at the dragon with keen interest in his eyes. Something told her that he was an alchemist. 

“It’s a shame the dragon has an owner.” Asher said to him “A full-sized dragon in the middle of a city filled with guards is quite the gold mine for potion ingredients.” 

Speaking of guards, about ten of them now ran towards the dragon. They wore green and silver padded tunics with a green and silver argyle pattern, with steel spaulders, rerebraces, and vambraces protecting their shoulders and arms. On their heads, they wore silver burgonet helmets and armored greaves on their feet, protecting their feet and shins. They wielded long pikes and green tower shields trimmed in silver, though most city guards wielded lucerne hammers without shields or crossbows. Leading them was a guard captain, who dressed similarly to the normal guards with the exception of a breastplate, a chainmail tasset, and a caged burgonet protecting his face. He wore a green cape with the Nepharie cockatrice in the middle in silver, and wielded a basket-hilted broadsword. 

“Back, dragon!” the captain cried out, oblivious of the man on the dragon’s back “Leave our kingdom or we’ll turn you into a throw rug!” 


<div class=""bb-h1""><font color=""azure"">The Juvegol Standoff</font></div> 

For a minute or two, both sides of the river stood silently, Arrond’s eyes not looking away from the eyes of the Red Legion captain. Soon the crowd of people began to leave and headed towards the city’s castle, hoping to find some refuge there. Coming against the flow of traffic were a regiment of longbowmen, three hundred strong, and up in the castle barracks, one thousand footmen were armoring up, as well as seventy more Nordavind to join the two hundred already present near the bridge. Luke slunk off through the crowd, moving towards a rocky cliff in the northeast part of town, where a pile of copper boulders sat inconspicuously propped against the brown cliff face. Arrond looked side-to-side along the river gorge. The city architects, of course, built buildings all along the edge of the Juvegol side of the river, some of which had cellars that stuck out into the gorge. They never built a wall because they believed that the river, being about two hundred yards across, would be just out of range of enemy longbowmen. Arrond knew that these men had much longer-range weapons, though. From here, one of their cannons could probably fire uninhibited into the center of the city. He looked down at the minotaur dangling over the edge of the gorge. 

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” Arrond said “The river runs too swiftly for even a warrior such as yourself to cross.” Arrond looked down at Tari, who approached him from the opposite side. Tari was annoying, but she was also quite attractive, so Arrond let her slide. 

“It’s the Red Legion.” he said “They’re attempting to cross the river. They claim that they want passage to the North, and that they mean no harm. Obviously, they’re lying.” Then he turned to Sikharthis. 

""Sikharthis!"" he shouted ""Do you have any men in the city?""</div>"

""Yes, yes..."" Morag-Nog said in agreement with Iro as he noted some pieces of technology. The Orcess heard of many of their technological feats. By asking around, of course. Most of them were rumors, but Morag-Nog knew that these ""<span class=""bb-i"">rumors</span>"" couldn't have just popped out of the blue. If only getting some real live evidence would be as easy as asking around for some rumors. But that doesn't matter right now. ""I've heard plenty about them..."" She tapped her cane on the ground hard, and looked to the side. The crowds were still panicking. Don't those fools know anything? Morag-Nog groaned as her gaze turned back onto Iro. ""... But, between the two of us, I'd rather not be on the receiving end of those weapons."" She said as she continued on their journey. It felt like forever before they arrived at the castle, where they were greeted by the guards of the city. Kind people. Morag-Nog took a step back the moment they ""introduced"" themselves with their weapons. What pleasant forces. Paranoid and useless as always. If she could fix anything in this city, she would root these useless fools out, and replace them with someone actually competent. Such as Kane. Morag-Nog rolled her eyes as they continued. She didn't speak, but she listened. Once the mention of spies came up, their paranoia became a lot more justified. Spies change everything, which explains why they didn't just tear this city down the first chance they got.

However, the whole situation was instantly defused when a lord came up and announced himself. Morag-Nog perked up, and examined the man. Giving how he has these two bowing to him, he must be high up on this city's foodchain. She didn't bow herself - because, she bows to no man. Iro didn't either. Her theory that Iro wasn't quite human was confirmed. He was a fairfolk. A species that is preyed upon by the vicious Red Legion... Another reason to help destroy them in her eyes. Sir Fallon allowed Iro and herself through the doors into the castle. Which was very kind of him. At least someone has to the brains to get something done here. However, Iro stopped and said that she didn't have to come with him. That she could stop at any time. Well, that was true. Because if Morag-Nog didn't want to go, she would have stopped following him by now and went to do whatever. But, the Orcess inventor thought about it for a bit.

At this point, Morag-Nog knew that leaving now would be stupid. There's no way in hell that she would get anything constructive done on her own. Other than stand around with a thumb up her ass and hope for the best. And... Iro seems like the type she'd stick to. If she was to get her hands on some Red Legion technology - even if the chances were slim - she knew it would be with him. ""Then I choose to accompany you, Iro. I don't think anyone else here is capable of getting anything done like you can."" Morag-Nog nodded her head. ""Lead the way.""</div>"

Over the centuries, many an army has tried to push through these mountains, but they have proven themselves to be so well-fortified that no army in existence could ever dream of pushing through the endless wall of rock. That is, until said army approached the North Valley. The North Valley is the only gap in the Tartarus mountains, a long and winding path that cuts through the wall of rock and leads to the green heartlands of Talbor. It is protected at its end facing the Wilderness by Fort Imperius, a fort built around an enormous gate forty feet high. It is manned constantly by a standing guard of two-thousand men. <br/><br/>From the top of the tower where the longbowmen watched, they saw the wave of red moving towards them across the green plains, and the trail of smoke which followed it. As the regiment of three-thousand men marched towards Fort Imperius, they burned everything behind them, leaving an expanse of blazing trees and charred grass in their wake. To the men atop the fort, it appeared as if Satan’s Armies were approaching themselves. At their request, Sir Frederick, the fort’s commander, climbed the steps to the top of the wall and approached the Head Bowman, a tall halfling man, with a cynical glare in his eyes. He was an arrogant-looking man, with perfectly-polished steel armor, long red hair which trailed down his back, and a long blue cape with the symbol Talbor, a ram’s head, imprinted on it in gold. <br/><br/>“What is it?” Sir Frederick said to the Bowman. <br/><br/>“Look out there, sir.” he replied “It appears as if we are about to go under siege.” Frederick looked out across the plains and saw the approaching armada. <br/><br/>“Hm. Look at that.” he said “It appears as we are about to have a fight on our hands. I will alert the men to go into lockdown and have another regiment of bowmen join you. I’m sure it won’t be much of a problem. No army in Tithe can break through these walls.” The bowman saluted, and Sir Frederick went off down the steps, where he alerted the rest of the soldiers to go into siege mode. Dozens of longbowmen moved to their arrow slits along the inside of the fifty-foot wall and a heavy metal portcullis lowered on each side of the wooden doors of the gate. A second regiment of archers were sent to the top. The soldiers still inside were commanded to armor up, but were not told to report to their internal battlestations on account that no “band of pyromaniac highwaymen” would ever bust through an impenetrable stone wall. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpIhbDN58mA"" rel=""nofollow"">(appropriate opening music)</a></span><br/><br/>As the Head Bowman greeted his new regiment of thirty archers and directed them to their places on the wall, however, he began to notice that there were not one regiment of soldiers moving towards the fort, but three, the other two about two miles farther away and significantly larger than the first. He looked towards his men as the alarm bells sounded inside; this was certainly more than a band of highwaymen. As he stared out at the closest army, he saw a flourishing of metal, and a sound that resembled a blast of lightning in the distance. Puffs of smoke rose from the army as a row of large black dots moved to the front of the army. Louder blasts of thunder roared through the air as the Bowman watched large balls of metal fly head-on into the wall. The entire structure shook, and the Bowman felt a blunt pain in his stomach as he violently rocked forwards. The next thing he knew, he was laying at the base of the wall with a snapped neck, his cold, dead eyes staring up at the blue sky filling with smoke and fire. As the black smog filled the sky, it appeared as if the sun had lost its color and turned a deep blood red. <br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Under the Red Sun is a high-fantasy roleplay centered around a war between the magical races of Tithe and the cold, mechanical army of the Red Legion, a group dedicated to destroying all magic in the world. You can play as any of fifteen different races, each with different cultures, weaponry, and abilities to bring to the table in the resistance against the Red Legion Invasion. This is an open-world role-play, with an enormous map. Your decisions will shape the invasion and determine the ultimate fate of Tithe.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-h1"">Important Information for Players</div> <br/><br/>Race and world information (the important stuff) is contained in the second post of this OP (because in one piece the file was so damn big that it broke the guild).

Don’t feel obligated to make a super long post just because others do.</li><li>Cursing such is fine, and romantic themes are okay as well, but I want two things to be very clear: (a) this is not an erotic roleplay. If you wanna boink, do it offscreen, and (b) this is not WOW or any other MMORPG (ie don't go out of your way to make female characters look as sexual as possible).</li><li>Character sheets are to be posted in the OOC before being moved to the character sheet file. If you are not a mod and post your sheet in sheet storage before putting it on the OOC, your sheet will not be considered. Please put all character sheets in hiders.</li><li>Though the plot revolves around the Red Legion Invasion, you don’t technically “need” to fight the Legion (though you probably should) and there can be PVP combat (incase you make a human who REALLY hates Fairfolk or something). It should go without saying that killing without permission is against the rules unless the other person is either (unresponsive in a battle scene for more than one week without prior warning, or (b) is in a situation where they cannot survive (like, they’re a Dryad covered in kerosene hanging off of the edge of a cliff with alligators at the bottom and you hit them with a fire spell). The latter situation will be determined by a mod.</li><li>Put the word Polaris in your other section if you read these rules.</li><li>No auto-hitting. It’s not fair and gives opponents no time to respond to attacks. Also, do not start sentences with “If this attack hits, it will...” This is my pet peeve. We’re not in kindergarten; we can figure out that if a character gets hit in the shoulder with a battleaxe, it’s going to leave a mark.</li><li>Also, no auto-dodging. No matter how agile your character is, they can’t dodge every hit. Blocking an attack is different from straight-up dodging it, as shields can only take so many hits.</li><li>There is a set of races and locations on the OP for a reason. Unless you convince me to add a location/race to the OP (which won’t be easy) please adhere to the races that my GMs and I have made.</li><li>No hybrid races besides Halflings, Halforcs, and Ogres.</li><li>There is a limit of four weapons per-character.</li><li>The Mookicide Rule: basically, the rule goes like this; there is a set number of mooks, or NPC combatants, in any fight, and no one character should be able to kill more mooks than any other. So, in each post, any one character cannot kill more than four mooks. This prevents spotlighting and allows everyone to get a slice of the action without somebody FIRIN MAH LAZER and killing an entire regiment of Red Legion.</li><li>No pets or mounts bigger than thirty feet long are allowed (and thirty is pushing it)</li><li>You must ask permission before you use an exotic pet (any magical creature like a griffin, cerberus, unicorn, etc.)</li><li>Only one mount/pet per character</li><li>No dragons allowed without permission. Also, no dragonhide armor is allowed without permission (because dragonhide is like really lightweight concrete).</li><li>No playing as a cyclops. Cyclopes don’t live on land.</li><li>You can be a military officer if you’d like (though I don’t recommend it because you probably won’t live very long) but if you are, you must pass the size of your character’s unit by me before making the sheet.</li><li>Some members of the Dorak race ride gigantic beetles of stone on which they put small colonies (because the beetles are mountain-sized). You are not one of those Dorak.</li><li>Have fun. Or don’t, really either way I don’t care so long as you’re not annoying.</li><li>Any rule past rule eight (and before this rule) can be broken with permission. If you want something that violates one of the rules and you can convince me that it’s not overpowered, then I will allow you to break that rule. For example, if you want your character to be a dragon rider, but you can make a dragon rider which is not overpowered, then you can do so. Do not abuse this privilege. If you do, I will never allow you to do such a thing again.</li><li>Don’t try to win the rp. That is impossible. You will not do it. Not even the most powerful mage alive could ever even dream of soloing the Red Legion.</li><li>No being a Red Legion member. I don’t like putting everyone on one side, but the Red Legion’s technology is better than that of every other race and a player who gets their hands on it could abuse it easily.</li><li>ABSOLUTELY NO GUNPOWDER WEAPONS. The Red Legion is the only race in Tithe which uses gunpowder. I know what you’re thinking; “but that puts me at a disadvantage if I’m dumb enough to directly engage them without a substantial force!” That’s the point.</li></ul></div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Weapon Regulations"" type=""button"">Weapon Regulations [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h1"">Weapon Regulations</div><br/><br/>There is a limit of four weapons per-character in this rp (without special permission to do otherwise). Weapons in the sheet are divided into four categories, large weapons, medium weapons, and small weapons. Remember when planning your character that weapon size is relative; a two-foot sword might be a medium weapon to a human, but to a minotaur that’s practically a toothpick. Below is a description of each kind of weapon and a list of what kind of weapons would fall into the different categories: <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Large weapons</span>, as the name suggests, are the biggest type of weapon. A good rule of thumb for large weapons is anything that either requires two hands to use or is as tall/taller than the character. Shields are also in this section. There is a limit of one large weapon per-character. The following weapons qualify as large weapons: <br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Two-handed swords</li><li>Mauls</li><li>Halberds</li><li>Bows (both long and short) You must indicate how many arrows a character has on them at one time.</li><li>Magic staffs</li><li>Shields of any size (round, kite, tower, etc)</li><li>Spears</li><li>Two-handed crossbows. You must indicate how many bolts a character has on them at one time.</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Medium weapons</span> are weapons which require one hand to wield and are too big to easily conceal. Medium weapons are the most-common weapons used in combat, and often function as the main weapon for the character. There is a limit of one medium weapon per-character. The following weapons qualify as medium weapons:<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>And kind of sword that does not require two hands to use (sabres, rapiers, arming swords, broadswords, you name it)</li><li>Battle axes</li><li>Maces (which aren’t too heavy to use with one hand)</li><li>Flails</li><li>One-handed crossbows (like what Ezio uses in Assassin’s Creed). You must indicate how many bolts your character keeps on hand at one time.</li></ul><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Small weapons</span> are weapons small enough to be concealed. These are usually used as secondary, or backup weapons. Generally-speaking, if your character can hide it without looking awkward, it is a small. There is a limit of two small weapons per-character. The following weapons qualify as small weapons:<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Daggers</li><li>Magic wands</li><li>Knives</li><li>Small throwing weapons (bolos, throwing knives, darts) You must indicate how many of these your character has on them at one time.</li><li>Medicine/potions</li><li>Any kind of ranged magical explosive. You must indicate how many of these your character has on them at one time.</li></ul><br/><br/>These are just suggestions, of course, as there is no limit on what kind of weapon your character uses so long as it fits the time period (nothing with gunpowder, basically) and isn’t overpowered (no daggers covered in incurable insta-kill poison).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weapon Trading:</span> Now I know what you’re thinking; “What if my character’s a super badass who uses two swords and no dagger!” Well, my super-badass friend, I have the solution for you! Weapon sizes can be traded up! What I mean by this is that if you want two medium weapons, you can trade your two small weapon slots in for a second medium weapon slot, and turn two medium weapon slots in for a second large weapon slot. So if you feel like using two swords or a tower shield and a Scottish Claymore (I don’t recommend that even a little bit) you can by trading in smaller weapons slots. These slots do not work in the opposite direction, however (as it would be ridiculous for someone to trade their large weapon in for two medium weapons and have more swords than they do hands). Also remember that if you ask permission and are approved by me or another mod, you can use more than four weapons. Weapons can be changed later on in the rp with permission, but no one can use firearms until I say so.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">A Very Important Note on Magic:</span> If your character uses combat magic, it takes the place of one of their weapon slots, meaning that you can only use three other weapons. It does not, however, matter what slot this is, so it can take the place of a small, medium, or large slot.</div></div><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Magic"" type=""button"">Magic [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h1"">Magic</div><br/><br/>So you wanna be a wizard, eh? Well magic in Tithe is pretty complicated, more complicated than cleaving your enemy in two with a sword or poking your enemy full of holes with arrows, but the rewards are worth it. <br/><br/>So firstly, let’s set some ground rules. Magic is an art which requires serious time and effort to perfect, even for Fairfolk. It is difficult to train at, and a true mastery of magic takes decades. Remember this when making sheets. In addition to this, the following rules apply to magic:<br/><br/><ul class=""bb-list"" style=""white-space: normal;""><li>No spells that cannot be blocked. Magic spells cannot go through defenses to damage an enemy, though they can damage defenses.</li><li>No spells that automatically kill. No matter how potent, any individual combat spell cannot kill a combat-ready foe. This doesn’t mean that your character cannot kill another character/mook with magic, but you can’t own a spell that if casted has a zero percent survival rate against an armed combatant. That being said, if a dumbass is standing naked in a field and is cursing your momma, feel free to wipe his ass off the planet.</li><li>Necromancy is extremely complicated and hard to perform. It is illegal in every kingdom of Tithe, and is punishable by death everywhere. Only the strongest of wizards can reanimate the dead, and it is never without side effects. Necromancers cannot control creatures like ghouls and ghosts, which are dead but were not made by them.</li><li>Telepathy is impossible. The mind is too confusing and complex to to be read by another.</li><li>No spells of absolute defense. Shield spells are allowed, but shields cannot be unbreakable.</li><li>Magic is not limitless. Each form of magic has different limitations, and exceeding either of those limitations will cause serious and most likely life-threatening damage to your character.</li><li>Transfiguration is not possible. You cannot turn yourself into something else. That means no turning into a gigantic demon or dragon or fifty-foot ghost version of yourself (looking at you, Korra). However, cosmetic potions can allow you to change your appearance slightly.</li><li>While each form of magic is based upon whatever it is you believe in, keep in mind there are a few forms of magic. offensive magic (like casting fireballs), defensive magic (healing yourself and others or making shields), and effect magic(illusions, invisibility, etc)</li></ul><br/><br/>There are two primarily forms of magic: what is referred to as Light Magic and what is referred to as Darkness Magic. Any one character can only learn one form of magic, and no living being has ever learned both simultaneously (and no being will ever do it so don’t try).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Light Magic</span> was created by the Fairfolk, and is based off of nature. It is the more common form of magic between the two. Like in Avatar, Light Magic focuses on the four elements (fire, water, earth, and air) and uses the relationships between them to cast a wide variety of spells. At a very basic level, Light magic looks like elemental bending. A novice Light mage can do things like shoot fireballs, create gusts of wind, and form shields of rock from the ground below them. But, while doing those things are cool, the true nature of light magic involves understanding the balance between the four elements and being able to alter that balance to create more various attacks. Those who understand how to alter the proportions of the four elements can do much more powerful things, like create magical shields by combining proportions of water and air or covering one’s skin in an iron coating by combining proportions of earth and fire. Because of this, Light Magic can get somewhat complicated and most mages do not go beyond simply controlling the four elements and their hybrids (mist, dust, smoke, mud, steam, metal, ice). It generally takes about twenty years of training and meditation to be able to use the four elements and their hybrids, and much longer to master the control of elemental proportions. Unlike darkness magic, light magic can heal as well, and some light mages can patch up wounds. With the exception of things like healing, light magic always takes a concrete form of an actual object (like lightning, a fireball, a big rock, etc). <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Limitations:</span> Light Magic stems from some sort of nature god/goddess, though there are different forms of this. Fairfolk believe in Matrem, the mother goddess who conceived the world in her womb, whereas elves believe in a Pantheistic view of nature and orcs believe in individual nature gods (humans are a mix of all three, though the majority worship Matrem). No matter which nature deity a species believes in, however, this natural deity grants magic power in exchange for service to the earth. Now what does this mean? It means that if a mage does not plant a seed of some sort after using a lot of magic, they develop a sickness known as Matrem’s Wrath. Matrem’s wrath causes extremely high fevers and convulsions that often lead to death or permanent paralyzation. Mages who contract the disease almost always lose the ability to ever use magic again if they survive. There is no set limit for how many spells a mage can use before having to plant a seed, but they generally know that they need to when they begin to feel fatigued and light-headed (or when Maxx tells you to plant a seed or die).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Dark Magic</span> is a form of magic that was created by the cyclopes, and is based off of emotion. It is generally a less-common form of magic, and is harder to learn since it does not involve actual concrete things. Despite its name, dark magic is not actually evil. Dark magic deals with emotions in a similar way that light magic deals with elements. Except, unlike Light Magic, there are more than four elements of dark magic, since there are more than four emotions. Each emotion in Dark Magic has a different effect, and emotions can be combined in a spell to combine effects (this is known as catharsis). The three primary emotions in dark magic (the ones that are used most) are anger, sadness, and happiness. Anger is generally involved in destructive spells that burn or smash. Happiness is generally involved in defensive spells like shields, and sadness is involved in effect spells like illusions and invisibility. Different emotions can be combined in different ways to do different effects (for example, combining happiness and anger gives you a spell which weakens your opponent’s attack and hits them with the same force they hit you with). If you want to know what happens if you combine different types of emotional energies, pm me and I’ll tell you. The more intense an emotion is in a dark mage, the more powerful the spell will be. Some wizard towers actually set up activities in secret where they trick mage trainees into feeling extreme emotions (euphoria, blinding anger, love) so that they can remember how they felt later and use it. The two most powerful emotions in Dark Magic are love and vengeance. Love spells are extremely powerful defensively and vengeance spells are extremely powerful offensively. To be skilled in dark magic, mages need to be very emotionally strong; if a mage loses control of their emotions, they lose control of their magic. Unlike Light Magic, which takes a concrete form, Dark Magic is more like Harry Potter magic where everything is just colored energy. While Light Magic is more useful for constructive things, in a combat situation Dark Magic is generally superior, as it does not rely on the elements to deal damage.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Limitations:</span> While Dark Magic is not rooted in any religion, it has limits similar to the limits of Light Magic. If a mage uses Dark Magic too often, they become very emotionally exhausted and fatigued. Overuse of Dark magic causes terrible migraines and mood swings which can cause mages to lose their magical abilities temporarily. If a mage does not rest after these symptoms kick in, they can very easily cause themselves to go into a mental breakdown which occasionally kills (and always takes magic away permanently). Dark mages make up for this by meditating after using excessive amounts of magic. Calming the mind and the body through meditation allows dark mages to regain control of their emotions and rest their fatigued minds. It usually takes an accomplished dark mage a little over a half hour of meditation to keep themselves healthy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Places To Learn Magic</span><br/>Tithe includes several different prestigious academies which specialize in teaching the arcane to perspective students. The following is a brief list of the best of these academies. <br/><br/>The Grand Tower/ Location: Orarius, Nepharie / The Grand Tower is a cluster of five stone towers in Orarius, each slightly shorter than the one to the left of it. Four of the towers have red-shingled roofs, one has an observatory atop it, and the tallest one has at the top of it a gigantic teardrop-shaped dome of red glass. The Tower is incredibly famous around the region, and has become a symbol of Nepharie. It teaches both light and dark magic, as well as astrology, potion-making, and archeology.<br/><br/>The Temple of Matrem / Location: Concordius / The Temple of Matrem, the Goddess of creation and nature. The temple is made of pink marble, and is roughly in the shape of the Jefferson Monument (though larger). The gaps between the marble columns outside are shrouded by white veils so that the inside cannot be seen from the shore. The temple is in the middle of a small island in the center of Lake Castus, and is only accessible via gondolas which ferry people between the shore and the Temple. The main floor of the temple contains a large well of a glowing water-like substance, which are believed by the Fairfolk to be tears of Matrem. The place primarily functions as a temple of worship, but the second floor (in the roof) and the basement both contain the best light magic schools in Tithe. This is where Fairfolk priests are trained in the arcane, and occasionally outsiders will be allowed to learn in a few of the departments. <br/><br/>The Academy / Location: Lychellon,Ostracus / The Academy, as it is called, is a large university in Lychellon, the capital of Ostracus. The Academy in appearance looks somewhat like Oxford, a massive castle of white stone with domes and minarets. It has courses for many things, from agriculture to architecture, but also houses a prestigious magic school where astronomy, history, light magic, enchantment, and potion-making are taught. The Academy is only open to the first four tiers of Gnome society, and the price is stratified in such a way that the fourth tier pays more than the third, second, or first tier.  <br/><br/>Stormfront Castle / Location: Concordius / On the border of Concordius and Nepharie stands Stormfront Castle, the home of the Stormfront family, an ancient family of seers. Stormfront Castle is massive and magnificent, looking very similar to Chambord in the Loire Valley of France. It is surrounded by a wrought-iron gate which has so many protection curses on it that it actually glows purple and steams. Stormfront Castle isn't an actual magic school, but the patriarch of the Stormfront family, Mentus Stormfront, often takes in apprentices and teaches them the magical arts. He teaches light magic, potions, and divination techniques to particularly bright students, though those born without the Sight can use this very little (and only the Stormfront family has the Sight)</div></div><br/><br/>If there is any other information which you desire, please pm me and I'll do what I can to help. </div>"

<div class=""bb-h2"">Notable NPCs</div>

The following is a list of important characters in the rp who are non-player-controlled (NPC). 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Notable NPCs"" type=""button"">Notable NPCs [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">King Draco of Ferdinand:</span> The king of Talbor and leader of the Knights of the Ram. Draco is a haughty ruler who is somewhat disconnected with his lower-class people, causing some stirring amongst peasants and factory workers. While Draco isn't particularly skilled as a politican, he is a gifted military leader.

<span class=""bb-b"">Prince John of Ferdinand:</span> The eldest son of the king of Talbor and heir to the throne. John is a lecherous and hedonistic prince who doesn't seem even slightly interested in the affairs of the kingdom despite being heir to the throne. He would much rather party and sleep with harlots than fight in a battle or lead a kingdom. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sir Randolph Fallon:</span> The head of the Knights of the Ram, Randolph is a prideful and envious noble, obsessed with his reputation. Once a good and virtuous knight, peer pressure combined with his excessive pride is beginning to lead him down a path of corruption. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Lady Ericur Tolkien:</span> The somewhat offish baroness of Debbeshire, a town in the central plains of Talbor. She seems to have an unhealthy fascination with sheep, and in the past has been known to put the welfare of the town's livestock before the welfare of her people. Some say that her strange idiosyncrasy is the product of combat fatigue from years of being a dragon rider in the war on Ostracus. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Lord Jesse Chrysostom:</span> A renowned and widely-respected baron from the village of Harrinshire. He is known to be a gifted poet and wordsmith, and has incredibly long hair which some peasants tell stories about, saying that his hair is magical. He is known to sing and recite poetry at the king's banquets.

<span class=""bb-b"">Lord Alastair Solem:</span> The solitary and cryptic baron of Olenport, Alastair is known to be a bit of a shady customer. He is reclusive and antisocial, preferring to sit in his tower all day rather than go to banquets or celebrations. Despite allegations, he is one of the least corrupt of the barons. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Lord Aaron Steele:</span> A rough and cruel baron residing in the Oreshire, a mining town up in the mountains. Despite his generally grumpy disposition, Aaron is fairly social and personable towards his people and will often walk through the farm terraces, talking to farmers and personally assessing the state of the crops. He used to be a longbowman in the army, but he got his eye cut out by a gnome. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tara Ichumenon:</span> A renowned alchemist and the best apothecary in Talbor. She is an elderly woman who runs a small shop in Maceron where she makes particularly powerful brews, so powerful that many people will send their sick or injured to her before they send them to the hospital. Tara is from Orarius originally, where she studied magic at the Grand Tower. She travelled the world for quite a while, but that was long ago and her old bones have grown too tired to go far from Maceron. She is cranky and somewhat senile, but she has the best intentions at heart.

<span class=""bb-b"">Chancellor Feuille:</span> The Chancellor of Nepharie. Feuille is a somewhat overconfident ruler who, while a good politician, might not be the person you want to be going into war with. He is somewhat cowardly when it comes to bloodshed, but wields the largest army in Tithe and knows it, though he prefers peace over war. He is incredibly indecisive about combat, something which may lead to his downfall. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Kjed Svero:</span> The prince of Ensom and Bjorns successor. Kjed is a young and naive lad who thinks he's invincible. He is headstrong, reckless, rebellious, and the perfect ruler to drive Jikari right into the ground if a major threat showed up. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Emperor Sheng Huo:</span> The second emperor of the Huo Dynasty of Ostracus, Sheng is a young and inexperienced leader. He just recently took over after his father died of old age and is still grieving his death. Sheng tends to be somewhat petty, and holds grudges for long periods of time, though he has the means to be a great leader someday. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Qsr. (queen of servants) Castira Lux:</span> The current high priest of Concordius, Castira is a wise and venerable ruler from another time. She's fair and just, but she's slow to adjust to new threats and is beginning to lose some of her touch. 

<span class=""bb-b"">King Skeron Kahnge:</span> The king of Haderlock. Skeron is a cold and angry ruler with a short temper and a brutish disposition. He is a seasoned veteran judging by his missing eye and facial scars, and doesn't care what it takes to win so long as he does it. It is said that he once tried to have a woman beheaded for treason and when the executioner wouldn't do it, he took the axe and did it himself. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sir Arrond Blount:</span> Sir Arrond is a Haderlockian general and the commander of the Nordavind. He is a living legend around Haderlock, and is said by some to be a demigod due to his incredible strength. While he's an excellent and ruthless military leader, Arrond can be somewhat cocky, as his reputation has grown quite widespread (Being recognized every time you walk into a bar tends to make your ego grow). 

<span class=""bb-b"">King Moroz Kulak:</span> The king of Glaces. Moroz is a territorial and xenophobic leader who has learned a lot in his four hundred years of being king (because he is the only king who has ever been there, like, ever). He is an ice giant, and is known to torture foes for information. He rivals Skeron in brutality. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Led Kobye:</span> The general of the Glacial Knights. Led is a wise and prideful general who hates to lose. He takes time to individually test every man under his command in combat, and is rarely defeated; those who beat him become lieutenants. He has also been the general of the Knights for literally ever (ever since Glaces came into existence four hundred years ago). 

<span class=""bb-b"">Grand Patriarch Mumuruk Gatoa:</span> The current Grand Patriarch of the Dorak. A burly, light-hearted fellow who has kept the country in good standing for nearly two decades. Prone to friendly competitions, gatherings, and demonstrations of his own strength and prowess, Mumuruk exemplifies the carefree and life-loving nature of the Dorak immaculately.

<span class=""bb-b"">Isaiah Stormfront:</span> A wise and cryptic Fairfolk seer who lives on the border of Concordius and Central Nepharie. He is said to be a powerful psychic who can see deep into the future, but he acts somewhat senile. Isaiah is often called in as an advisor to Chancellor Feuille and Qsr. Lux. 


<span class=""bb-b"">Nick:</span> Nick is a wandering Saurian drunkard who was once believed to be an oracle. He stumbles about the southern kingdoms, making references to places that do not exist and people who are not present. He is known to break the fourth wall.</div></div> </div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 491
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Shade
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Concordius 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span>
<img src=""http://sfmlab.com/media/jumbo/DOALadyBig.jpg.750x500_q85_crop.jpg""/>
Honoria stands at around 5’9” and weighs about 115lbs. Her skin, as a Shade, is now a dark grey colour rather than the silvery white that she once was. Her dark smoky eyes are as alluring as they are intimidating, and it’s impossible to tell which direction she is looking in. She has some faint scaring around her body from where she was chained with Iron, a grim reminder of the pain she was put through. Her voice is deep (for a female) and somewhat majestic sounding, similar to the voice of Galadriel in the LOTR movies. She has great posture and walks with a royal grace. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> She is covered by root like things that are in fact a part of her body. She is able to extend these for better coverage and provide some minimal defense. Fortunately her turning did not seem to affect her control of this. Her only real clothing is a belt which she wears purely to house a money bag and her dagger. She also wears a small vial on a necklace, filled with a small few drop from Matrem’s Well. The necklace was a gift she received from a suitor when she was very young. She has contemplated getting some armour but after half a millennium of being naked, she struggles with the idea.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Honoria was once a kind and gentle soul, willing to help any who came to her for aid. Since turning into a shade however, she has changed drastically. Feeling as if her entire world has been stripped from her, she is now an incredibly vengeful entity and finds herself in fits of rage from time to time. She is <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> slow to make friends, being distrustful of most (especially humans) but she is willing to cooperate if it means achieving her goals. She has also grown bitter and has grown jealous of others who have a close connection with nature, feeling as if her own connection has been permanently severed. She is angered by those who don’t understand nature or wish to do it harm. In fact, she seemed to be quickly angered by anyone these days but at least is able to control her emotions and vent them in <span class=""bb-i"">creative</span> ways. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> She mostly spends her time brooding, but can occasionally make time to retrain her magical abilities or to sing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Honoria has a natural penchant for befriending and even (to a certain extent) understanding animals and creatures. This doesn’t mean to say that she can talk to them or read their minds, but can, on some strange level, empathise with what they currently feel. She is also a nice singer, as are most Dryads. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
Honoria was until recently known by many as ‘The Wandering Lady’ because of the tree that she was bound to, for it was a moving tree known as ‘Young Bark’. Young Bark was a gigantic tree that, unlike other moving trees, rarely stopped. For more nearly 500 hundred years Honoria sat atop Young Bark as the colossus drifted around Concrodius, protecting it when need be. Some of the more religious people of the world, including many Fairfolk, would find and tend the tree. Others sometimes came looking for The Wandering Lady because her healing skills were extraordinary. And so it was a peaceful existence for Honoria, one that lasted almost half a millennium… but unfortunately all good things must come to an end. 

When the Red Legion begun attacking settlements in the Wilderness, twas not only the forces of Brighton and Pyreton that felt the Legion’s sting. There were many small scale attacks and shows of support from their agents and secret sympathisers in the south and as it was, Honoria was one of the victims. A mob of twenty human men tracked down The Wandering Lady, claiming they sought her help with their afflictions. But when Honoria left the safety of Young Bark to aid them, they brandished weapons of Cold Iron and pinned her down. She tried to fight them off but her combat magic was limited and she was easily overpowered. They wrapped her in Iron chains and made her watch as they sprung an ambush for Young Bark, who had heard her cries and rushed to her aid. It was torture in every sense for her as she watched in agony as the tree was set aflame and her natural object was destroyed. They no doubt would have killed her (and worse) were it not for arrival of Fairfolk who had seen the flames from a distance. Much to her anger, the Fairfolk managed to assure Honoria's release through intimidation rather than go to blows. Meaning that the men responsible for this defilement are still out there somewhere. 

In the time since then she has been staying at the Temple of Matrem. Not much time has passed and yet her personality has already changed drastically. At first she spent her time trying to reconnect with nature or find some semblance of peace or purpose, but to no avail. Her world is shattered and now all she seeks is revenge. Much to the disdain of the Fairfolk around her, she has begun to learn Dark Magic with worrying speed. Given this and the fact she is now a Shade, some have begun to refer to her as ‘The Grey Lady’, especially when telling the tale of her defilement. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> (Optional. Talk about your character’s family. <span class=""bb-b"">If you are a dryad, this is going to be depressing</span>)
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
WIP 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Large Weapon: Staff | Medium Weapon: Magic | Small Weapon: Daggers</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Honoria has a Staff named Remembrance, which was made of Young Bark’s charred remains as a gift of condolence. Though the gift giver meant well, it was not a gift she happily accepted for what should have been obvious reasons. While it is a bitter reminder of what happened, a part of her is slightly grateful to have a part of Young Bark close to her. It is a moderately powerful staff, and is especially potent at helping her channel dark magic due to the connection between them. The staff itself looks like a long charred piece of wood that has been heavily mangled at one end. Despite its appearance however, the staff’s creator took care to make it sturdier; although it would still be broken in two by most swords. 

Honoria also has a small decorate silver dagger that she wears on her belt. It is adorned with swirling patterns and was clearly intended to be an ornament rather than a weapon. Still, it certainly does the job when needed.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Honoria has only recently become a shade and so is still trying to relearn magic. Rather than relearning light magic however, she appears to only be able to practice dark magic. She believes this is because her connection to nature has been lost, although some of the High Priests assure her this is not the case and that she just needs to give it time. Unfortunately for the Red Legion, she does seem to be picking up Dark Magic rather quickly, thanks to her utter lust for vengeance and her staff. Most of her abilities are courtesy of her race or use empathy on some level. Her abilities include:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Her ability to grow roots around herself could be considered a magic ability in itself, although it is hardly a game changer (not since becoming a shade anyway). The roots do provide some very mild protection, but certainly not enough to stop a decent thrust. It does help her grip things with her hands and feet, meaning she has more balance. It is now used more for modesty's sake than anything else.</li><li>Her singing, as a Dryad, could also be considered a magical ability as it helps nearby wildlife grow. This is nowhere near as potent as it was now that she's a shade, but she has managed to alter this ability slightly through Dark Magic: By singing with certain emotions she can conjure certain emotions in others (but they have to be fairly weak willed and even then it's only a mild effect).</li><li>How to cast chain lightning. This requires her to conjure strong feelings of wrath and anger. This is much harder to control than the light magic counterpart, but can be more devastating. If her feelings are not strong enough then she may only generate a small shock at best. However if her feelings are too strong then she will be unable to direct the lightning or will loose control of the Dark Magic completely (until she rests).</li><li>By remembering the torment she went through and the emotions she felt, she is able to inflict a similar pain onto others. That is to say that she is able to make them feeling as if they are wrapped in burning chains, leaving them in pain and restricting their movement. This is only possible because of the severity of the memory, and it requires a very great amount of strength and concentration to work. As such, she is only able to cast it on a single target and normally finds herself having to rest afterwards before using any more magic.</li><li>She also has the ability to control and see through the eyes of Colubra (her companion) but this leaves her own body vulnerable. This ability is fairly easy for her to use but she has to be within a certain range to maintain this.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Like all Dryads, she is vulnerable to fire and Cold Iron, and is not very physically strong. As a shade she is also not as magically powerful as she once was and is somewhat more cut off from nature. At just the sight of fire she becomes emotional, filled with feelings of both fear and utter anger. As a new practitioner of Dark Magic she can lose control of her magic and suffer some negative effects due to her temper flaring out of her control. Socially she has become an outcast at almost every turn, meaning that she cannot rely on others as well as most. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Honoria has a companion named Colubra (pronounced Col-oo-bra), a massive shadow-snake that lived with her atop of Young Bark. Colubra resembles a giant anaconda and its skin is currently black with streaks of varying shades of green. She is currently around 5.5m long and is <a href=""http://www.channelguidemagblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Eaten-Alive_web.jpg"">fairly thick</a>. As a shadow-snake she gradually changes her skin colour to blend in with her surroundings. This is hardly a quick process and its effectiveness varies depending on her movement and on how much the colours in her environment are shifting. She can also only do this once per skin-shed, which in itself is a long process. She is poisonous, but only mildly so; her bites are likely to leave you feverish and weak but will only kill you when combined with other afflictions. She relies more on biting and restriction than she does poison. 

In terms of personality Colubra is perhaps what one would expect from a giant shadow-snake: she’s a sneaky, vicious b****. However she is extremely loyal to Honoria and will glad put herself in harm’s way to protect her. She has been trained not to attack sentient beings unless in defense or when commanded. 

Honoria has recently gained the ability to see through Colubra’s eyes and control her. They have to be within a certain range for this to work. Surprisingly, Colubra is either unaware of this or simply doesn’t appear to mind.

Fixed this, I hope :P 

I've also fleshed a couple of things out slightly, including the powers. I added one or two more (sort of), so I hope I haven't suddenly become OP. I was also wondering if Dryads, or Shades in particular, also share Fairfolk's ability to speak to animals? 

Would it make sense for Honoria and Iro to know each other do you think?

I don't think Honoria would like that, but I look forward to seeing how his advances play out! Colubra, the snake, is about 5.5 metres long. So she's big but certainly not Titanoboa big.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sikarthis
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 470
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Glacial Knight
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Glaces, The Northlands 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Standing at a sizable height of 6'5"", Sikarthis is readily recognizable even among a throng of his fellow Glacial Knights. Though somewhat slender, his frosty form has been honed and hardened by centuries of warfare, training, and hardships into an almost unmatched fighting machine. <a href=""http://puu.sh/fzXE5/64b11c39cd.jpg"">Narrow eyes, high cheekbones and a permanent look of irritation give Sikarthis a rather unapproachable appearance that mirrors his feelings towards the majority of those he is forced to deal with.</a> Sikarthis keeps his hair long, preferring to keep it on either side of his face and out of his eyes. As he shaves only every so often it is not uncommon to find him with stubble or the beginnings of a beard on his face. His skin, like all Glacial Knights, has the appearance of a frosted, iced over lake.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Like all Glacial Knights, Sikarthis dons a uniquely crafted set of armor made of extremely hard and durable ice, though he had changed quite a bit of it throughout the centuries. His armor consists of shoulder pauldrons, a cuirass with an attached groin and thigh guard, flexible 'mail and micro-plate' sleeve coverings that extend over his hands, and a pair of greaves. Sikarthis has long chosen to forfeit the use of a helm, choosing instead a simple head wrap that leaves little more than the area around his eyes exposed. This has serves the dual purposes of protecting him from smoke and similiar battlefield hazards as well as keeping his identity hidden from his enemies. Much of this armor is lighter than the kind commonly worn by Glacial Knights and therefore not quite as good at protecting him from harm. This does mean however that he is significantly more flexible and agile than most of his fellows, allowing him to make full use of his weapon of choice and the fighting style that goes with it.

When not wearing his armor Sikarthis wears a simple covering over his genitalia for decency's sake.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Among the speciesist Glacial Knights Sikarthis is counted as one of the most difficult members of leadership to pinpoint in terms of political standing. While he makes no attempt to hide his contempt and irritation towards those outside his own species it has not gone unnoticed that he has little praise or time even for his fellow Knights. Added to that are recent rumors that he and the Haderlock envoy Tári Númenessë have been attending to one another at night, further putting doubts on his views towards outsiders. Whatever his actual stance on the matter, none can argue that he is unfit for his current position as both lead diplomat and renowned lieutenant for Glaces.

Renowned for his cold, calculating approach to both diplomacy and war, Sikarthis views every conversation, debate, engagement and even every tumble in the sheets as a battle of wits and wills where one side must come out on top. Lacking nothing for patience he bides his time in all matters, feigning disinterest or foolishness until such a time that he can make use of an opponent's overconfidence or laxness to gain the upper hand. This approach to life has won him many battles and enemies, both on the field and inside the walls of Glaces. Despite any misgivings about his views on foreigners his success as a commander and a tactician have also earned him great respect from those serving under him and it is rare to find him without attendants or hanger-ons looking for approval or handouts. He is fond of using simple board games as a means of gauging his opponents off of the battlefield as well, much to the irritation of several of his regular correspondents.

Sikarthis, unlike the rest of his kind, has for the past century had his gaze turned towards the south, past the borders of the Northlands and into The Wilderness where he claims untold power and resources await his people. His fellow officers (and indeed the general himself) have attempted to dissuade him from that line of thought, pointing out that the distance, weather difference, and manpower required to make such an expedition and hold any territory claimed would stretch thin their already small numbers. Were he more approachable Sikarthis might find allies in his arguments but as it were his blunt, callous approach to dealing with others does not translate well to making friends or good first impressions. Some have wondered how he managed to become the finest diplomat in Glaces given this fact.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Sikarthis generally spends his free time locked away in his chambers while inside the walls of Glaces, reading from an extensive and ever expanding library of scrolls, tomes, tablets and carvings on a variety of subjects. Often his focus is on military and political history and the tactics of the past, both inside and outside of the Northlands. Trade with Haderlock has given him many a new avenue with which to pursue this interest. Not content just read about such matters, it is not uncommon to find Sikarthis one of the many training halls about Glaces, practicing constantly to turn studied material into practical, proven techniques. 

As Tári Númenessë is currently the only ambassador in Glaces he has recently spent a sizable amount of time verbally sparring with her about matters both important and inane. The two have also taken to bouncing languages off the other in a sort of impromptu dialect trade. So far Sikarthis has learned more words in more languages for the male genitalia than he had likely been expecting. 

 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Sikarthis speaks several languages and dialects thanks to his centuries of dedicated study, though his understanding of some is more rudimentary at best. Diplomacy is also a strong suit of his and he is well known for his ability to gain the upper hand (or at least even the playing field) in even the most seemingly one sided of talks. He for finding 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
While it is no mystery that Sikarthis has risen to two positions of power within Glaces few seem to recall exactly how it was that he managed to reach the heights he has today. Many attribute his position and power to connections within the king's court while others talk of favoritism from the general. In reality however Sikarthis rose through the ranks as anyone did, from the very bottom upwards by his own hand. Low ranking soldiers themselves, the young Glacial Knight was groomed for war long before he had reached even his first decade of life. In the years before his enlistment into the military proper Sikarthis had little interaction with his family outside of daily training when they were stationed inside of Glaces, preferring instead to spend his time out by the harbor watching and waiting for ships to come in.

Serving as little more than a foot soldier for half of his first century of life Sikarthis drew the attention of his commanding officers through his tactical insight and prowess with his <span class=""bb-i"">redaktsyia</span> on the battlefield. The young soldier was difficult not to notice, his unwillingness to back down from a challenge and his apparent skill making it quite clear to his superiors that he intended to do better for himself than his low ranking parents ever had for themselves. From there it was not long until he was leading small squads of his own men and eventually taking orders directly from the general himself. No matter the task Sikarthis proved himself to be an able and adaptable commander as well as a talented warrior. After two centuries of continually proving his worth there were few above him who could deny that a lieutenant's rank was his by rights and even those detractors fell silent on the day that Sikarthis held a mountain pass with a small number of soldiers at his command against a force several times their size. Despite heavy losses, his own parents among them, Sikarthis managed not only to drive back the assaulting force but even beheaded the enemy commander in single combat before leading a counter attack that left the enemy force entirely shattered.

A lieutenant's rank now attached to his name, Sikarthis was able to focus on other matters of interests him, namely the study of history and diplomacy. Three decades of study brought him to a point where he believed he could match wits with the best of them and it quickly became apparent to those in Glaces that he was right. As the decades have passed his studies have continued alongside his military career, his experience in both expanding along with his power within the ranks of the general populace. Recently, with the trade between Glaces and Haderlock as well as the arrival of their diminutive ambassador, Sikarthis has stepped up his discussions about expanding south of the Frost River. So far few have been willing to give the idea much thought.


<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Both of Sikarthis' parents died in battle under his command. They were low ranking soldiers of little importance and therefore not worth mentioning as far as he is concerned.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Tári Númenessë | Questionable | Frienemy | As cunning as she is small, yet overly fond of vulgarities. Little more than an irritating elf in my book. And yet...

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Large: Sikarthis carries into battle the same weapon he has carried since the first day he stepped onto a battlefield, a <span class=""bb-b"">redaktsyia</span> (Bladestaff in the Iceman tongue) forged from the same enchanted ice as all Glacial Knight weapons. Perfectly balanced and fairly light despite its size, this polearm gives Sikarthis an impressive amount of flexibility in how he uses it as well as quite a bit of breathing room to work with. The weapon is around ten nine feet in height, the extremely sharp and durable blade making up three of those feet. (It's basically just a really big, reinforced naginata)

Medium: Though he rarely uses it, Sikarthis possesses a short sword measuring roughly two and a half feet in length. It is crafted from the same material as his polearm, though the design is less elegant and more designed around causing maximum trauma upon retracting a stab.

Small

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Centuries of study, training, and combat experience have turned Sikarthis into one of the most dangerous warriors in the Northlands, his icy polearm leaving bloody trails through the air as it cleaves through flesh and bone alike. Lethality and grace mark his every movement, from the way he seems to dance away from blows to the twirling of his hands as he slices through the neck of a hapless foe. With his body tempered and his mind razor sharp it is no wonder that he has amassed a collection of heads belonging to the commanders and champions who faced him in battle and lost.

Where Sikarthis is truly skilled however is in his grasp of military tactics and his ability to marshal men to his side. Few lieutenants are as capable of inspiring their soldiers into an unwavering fighting machine or playing mind games with an enemy commander until he finds himself surrounded and half his troops dead at his feet as Sikarthis is.


<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Along with all of the usual weaknesses common among Glacial Knights Sikarthis adheres to a strict warrior code (and a nagging voice in the back of his head) that prevents him from turning away from most challenges presented to him. Given the choice he will gladly face an opposing force twice his size with little more than a handful of men, so sure of his own abilities that he fails to foresee any negative outcome.

His attitude towards others is also often a hindrance, as despite his current positions within the Glacial Knight society he has little in the way of allies or friends and even less luck making any outside of his species. With this comes an unwillingness to accept support from most individuals, seeing it as a sign of weakness when he cannot rely fully on himself. 

Some within Glaces would say that the recent arrival of a certain ambassador has also count as a weakness, though not within his earshot.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Loshad' - A horse made of enchanted ice. Loyal, quiet, and with an attitude quite similar to his master's.

<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span>  Human 

<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Talbor

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Bartleby is a 6 foot 1 tall male with Caucasian white skin, green eyes with dark bags under his eyes, ginger swept back hair and a soul patch beard. He supports a skinny, non athletic build and is missing a single front tooth.  He has a high pitched and generally whiny tone of voice, (something along the lines of Yuri Lowenthal), and walks very carefree, with a spring in his step.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Bartleby wears a set of jet black nobleman shoes, and a set of black scale skin leggings wrapped with jet black belts. (All the cool kids are doing it, in Bartleby's defense). Supporting a white frilled shirt, a blue and gold trimmed noblemans vest and a golden cravat and a jet black cloak. To top it all off, he wears an eccentric jet black musketeer styled hat, with a blue feather lodged at the side. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>  Bartleby is a very selfish and greedy individual, but isn't evil. He'll take whatever he can find and get, having a problem due to being a klepto. He finds himself always attempting to get the best offer out of a situation and will do what is necessary to save himself. Which usually involves running away. He is a coward and a liar, and will always try and bluff himself out of a situation. Bartleby is also a freeloader and a moocher but he generally desires the destruction of the red legion... He'll just try and offer... mortal support... if he can't help it! He can be kind, thoughtful and understanding, but when it comes to survival, he will either run off or demand safety.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Bartleby finds enjoyment in drinking, reading and enjoys ""collecting"" things from everywhere he goes, always having some sort of new item after each place he visits, he likes to call it a hobby. He also enjoys brothels, silence and not being bothered. He also enjoys getting free stuff! 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Bartleby's main skills lie in his non combat standpoint. He is great at lying and playing the poker faced expression, giving him excellent negotiating skills, being able to bribe or weasel his way into many establishments.

Bartleby also has the ability to forge new identities and can help hide his allies whereabouts with false Intel, giving them a good amount of time to escape from a bad situation if it comes to it. 
With being a cheating, lying and selfish prat, he also has the ability to lie straight through his teeth with ""charm"", allowing him to persuade others for information and get Intel for the group that others might not be able to get. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 

Bartleby, who had no name at the time, but would later on gain one grew up like many humans within Talbor, as a child he was adopted and raised by a merchant family, though the memories were vague, the only way to describe it was that Bartleby was chosen to be raised merely to help whatever business his adopted parents owned, to help their little scheme flourish therefore as a young boy, Bartleby was raised to be a liar, to cheat and to steal, to use others for personal gain and to never betray his parents. As a child all this information was confusing for the young boy, as he was privately tutored by an arrogant and rough teacher, never even getting to know other children, he was forcibly and abusively banned from interacting with anyone his young age, and grew up in an isolated environment where only his parents could ""teach"" him about what mattered. 

Growing up to learn history, merchandising skills, thievery and much more, along the lines of language and culture, but only to exploit, they had a child they could raise as their own little money maker, and had it not been for their ""accidental"" deaths, it would have continued that way.

Fortunately however, when you become too much of an ass in life, life does you straight in it, and that happened smoothly by the time of Bartleby's eleventh birthday. Simply doing his parents chores and being taught the values of ""merchandising"", a group of armed men broke into the home and slew both his adoptive mother and father, causing the young child to fail to process what just happened, he never had any love for them, as they showed no love back, but the incident left him almost scarred, when the armed men approached him, it had come to his attention that his parents were in fact scum, nothing but dirty thieves and con artists who seeked to con every single individual out of their gold, and was a potential"" threat"". With nobody else to take care of him, the armed man agree'd to bring him to a much more ""profitable business"" And that's how Bartleby was first introduced to the life of the stereotypical criminal underground. 

Raised by his new father, named Daniels, a short, black haired tanned male with a talent for crossbows, he acted more like a father than his older parents ever could. Raising him in the criminal underground, and with his thievery and merchandising skills, his new father Daniels raised him on how to lie properly, and taught him the use of his weapon, however Bartleby wasn't a very brave child, and always simply put on a brave face to fool the people around him, skipping any boring and trivial details, Bartleby continued how to use a crossbow, was taught how to lie and cheat and got taught how to trade much more effectively, and with his effort and his adopted father, the two were able to make quite a small fortune in the black market and with their thievery, selling and conning, the two were impressive at their jobs, and ran this for 9 years until Bartleby was twenty years old... and able to outsmart his own father... and meet an individual which would stay in his life for better or more realistically for worse for the rest of his life. 

Shortly after the black market business had flourished, and after 9 long years, Bartleby became over such a long time very skilled with using the crossbow and a skillful negotiator, and with these skills and a business partner none the wiser, along with bartleby's own kleptomaniac tendencies which grew over the course of his life of crime, in one single day, and with his adoptive fathers back turned, he killed him... If he was brave and cruel enough, no instead he simple snagged a key to the groups savings and bolted as fast as his legs out carry him with the mass of funds, however it didn't take long for the black market to catch onto his scheme, as he fled with thick bags of gold and hot stolen items all within a giant rucksack, he barely escaped with his life, used his skills to acquire himself with the gold he bought a new outfit, to mask his old appearance and get himself under a new name, or alias. His original name is unknown, and is known only as Bartleby Sterling, the original name given to him is not even known to himself, having never had a name giving to him by either his newer father of his adoptive parents back when he was a child. 

Hidden away within an abandoned basement at a corner street within Talbor, Bartleby investigated the contents of the stolen goods and money, enough money to keep him fed for years and within the stolen rucksack of valuables were gems, hot stolen gems fresh for selling and another items curiously popped itself out of the bag... a small, chubby looking Siamese kitten poked its little head out and stared cutely at Bartleby, the conman and merchant coward not knowing just how much agony the cat would bring to him, Bartleby decided to take the cat in, and raise it himself as the two quickly and using bartleby's talents, sold the hot merchandise for a thick profit before fleeing and escaping the criminal clutches of the underground, deciding to use his fine money to start a new life.

Now at age 23, Bartleby has been able to quickly amass his wealth, shown through his very eccentric and interesting attire to look as flashy as possible along with his fat, round cat sucking up every gold piece he had at the same time, now he is starting to feel the pressure of his fortune draining no help to his cat, his conning, thievery and merchant skills having only gotten him so far, if he didn't try and get better merchandise, he was going to start losing money and eventually go poor. Bartleby decided. ""The red legion... such powerful weapons... If perchance I was able to steal some of that technology and pretend I was on a major quest to save everyone... I could probably get my riches back again.!"" And with this foolish plan, Bartleby would find himself going up against forces which were vastly superior in skill to him, in a mission he would refer to as his greatest and most biggest cock up.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> N/A

 <span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> No relationships yet. 

 <span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> 

Two handed crossbow: Beatrix with 30 bolts in a boxed quiver just above his rear, hidden under his cloak. 

(more bombs but takes up an extra slot) two slots: Magical explosives: 20 in a bagged pouch at the side of his hip, hidden under his cloak. 

Medicine: Potions, healing ones, hidden under his cloak, it contains 3 healing potions and a poison cure. 

 <span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
Crossbow training: Despite being overly pathetic in almost all areas, Bartleby finds himself safest when he is as far away from his opponent as possible... Which is why as a child he got trained how to use a crossbow! And he loves his Big Beatrix! However this is probably one of his only known skills, his expert ability with crossbows gives him a great perceptive insight on how to fire upon an enemy with it, and with this skill he is able to execute his foes from a huge distance.
 
Explosives: Make things explode and then RUN. How does Bartleby handle himself if he's out of crossbow bolts and an angry red legion man is coming at him with murder in his eyes... Aside from urinating himself, Bartleby has the ability to use elemental explosives, thanks to his connections and secret buyers, he has amassed and is skilled in using these bombs to his advantage. 

Running away: Ah yes, one of his many great and ferocious talents is that he can run away like a sissy girl at a speed of something pretty fast if it was getting chased by a lion. Using his ability to be unpredictable, one of his many fine traits is creating a distraction big enough to let himself escape the area in the hopes of being able to out maneuver and escape his foes so he may live to fight another day.

A cat who's main desire is eating, and sleeping, and meowing, and repeating... Though it does make for some good laughs when it annoys Bartleby to the point of frustration, it is his only true friend though, and he loves shin dearly, and hates the every lasting guts out of the monstrous fatass at the same time...

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 70
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Elf - Volcanic
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Originally: The Wilderness, Phoenix mountains. Currently serving as Ambassador of Haderlock to the Glacial Knights of Glaces.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Weighing in at a grand total of 93 lbs and an impressive height of 4'9"" it is small wonder that Tári often goes unnoticed, the fact that her ebony skin is in direct contrast with her naturally red hair keeping her from fading entirely into the background. Of course, her slender but shapely form also plays a large part in gaining attention, making up in other places what she lacks in height.

Tári prefers to keep her hair off her back and shoulders, sweeping a portion of it over her the left side of her face in order to keep her scar and clouded eye hidden from immediate view. She has a button nose, largish eyes, a rosy complexion (difficult to notice with her skin tone) and the shape of her face could best be described as an inverted triangle. The edges of her mouth appear to have a natural upward curve as well as it seems there is always a smile of one kind or another on her face.

Not entirely cut off from her culture, Tári maintains the ceremonial markings of her tribe, though they lack the reddish pigment commonly used by her people.

(And because I'm a visual person here's the closest I could make of this 2lewd shorty <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCv9x/92d1435d55.jpg"">x</a> <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCvkN/180bd49b9b.jpg"">x</a> <a href=""http://puu.sh/fCvo1/564965d5b5.jpg"">x</a>)

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Due to the extreme temperatures of Glaces and the Northlands in general, Tári is more often than not wearing several layers of woolen underclothes and a fur coat given to her on her initial arrival to Glaces that extends down to around her shins. A fur hat of some kind is not out of the question and gloves are a must in the frigid city as well, though due to her higher than normal body temperature she can often forgo a few layers on the warmer days. 

When not bundled up (generally when she is in her private quarters where there is actual heat) Tári tends towards rather revealing dresses or gowns of a reddish hue. Bangles, necklaces, earrings and other jewelry also makes an appearance during such times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Many in history have questioned what a cat would be like if it were turned into a human. Tári is likely the closest answer to that question. Possessed of a 'Do-As-I-Like' attitude and the self assurance that the world revolves around and will adapt to her, Tári has waltzed her way through life so far with hardly a care. Charming to the extreme and well aware of the effect she has on most men (and some women), she's never been afraid to use her 'talents' to further her own goals. Coming from a tribe of volcanic elves in a harsh, unforgiving terrain that takes more lives than it gives the nubile young elf has always viewed intimacy as a daily part of life that someone with the right attitude can use to their advantage. 

Notoriously lazy as well, it is often a wonder to her peers how she managed to become an ambassador at all. It is not uncommon to find her slumped into a chair in front of a warm fire, fast asleep after a meal or discussion with the Glacial Knight leadership. When not snoozing or floozing she can often be found enjoying the finer things in life. This normally includes copious amounts of fermented alcohol, decadent desserts and succulent meat.

Tári is, as befits her job, a social butterfly who excels at conversation, bartering, and manipulating small numbers of individuals towards a certain subject or train of thought. This, her looks, and her ability to debate with the best of them made her an ideal candidate to act as ambassador from Haderlock to Glaces.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> The fineries afforded to her by her position. Food, drink, soft fabrics, exotic creatures and extravagant clothing. Dancing, painting and digging up juicy gossip are also on that list. She also has an interest in jewelery crafting and body markings, both things her people are quite skilled at.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tári is a people person. She enjoys conversation, she enjoys debate, and she enjoys manipulating others into doing what she wants with as little effort as possible. Her years of fine living and time spent at a counsel table discussing trade agreements have left her with a better understanding of bartering and the cost of goods than most, making her a dangerous customer in any store. Furthermore, Tári has a knack for learning languages both written and spoken, shown by her unofficial tutoring of Sikarthis. She knows over a hundred and six words or slang terms for various genitalia.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Born into a small tribe of volcanic elves on one of the many slopes of the Phoenix mountains, surrounded by volcanic ash and dangerous magma flows, Tári Númenessë was born into the world ready to confuse and irritate quite a large number of people. Since the time she could walk the young elf was finding her way into places that she shouldn't be and hoarding sweets and other goodies that belonged to other children. Once she had learned to speak it was all any of the tribe's adults could do to keep her from arguing with them or tricking the other kids into relinquishing their treasures. Eventually Tári's own parents were forced to take action, secluding their troublesome child in their forge where they taught her the basics of their trade. It wasn't until the young girl had reached her tenth year of life that she was given permission to leave the forge every so often again.

It was on one such occasion that Tári spotted something she had never seen before, a massive caravan line passing far below the village at the base of the mountain slope. Rather than sit around and tell an adult, Tári ran down to see what the long train of people was all about, slipping one of her parents jeweled daggers onto her person as she passed the forge just to be safe. When she reached the base of the mountain the caravan was still proceeding along with wagons, sleds and pack animals deepening the depressions in the newly stomped path left by those that came before them. Making little effort to hide herself at all Tári was surprised to find that nobody paid her much attention, exhaustion set in everyone's eyes as they trudged alongside the wagons holding their worldly belongings. For the young elf it was far too interesting to simply head back the way she had come and so she decided to tag along for a while and investigate further.

Several hours (and many many miles) later she realized that she could no longer see the mountain her village was located on. As would end up being the norm for her in later years however she took it in stride, certain that she could find her way back eventually. Suffice to say she never did and it took several months, right up until the caravan reached it's destination at what would become Haderlock, for anyone to say ""Wait who's kid is this?"" By then however Tári had integrated herself into the daily life of the exiles, making herself useful in little ways while managing to avoid trouble (or at least managing to avoid getting caught). With nobody willing to make the journey to return the youth it was agreed that it would be best to wait until she was older and capable of undertaking such a trip by herself.

As the years passed and Haderlock began to blossom it became readily apparent to many that the young elf had a knack for bartering and talking herself out of nasty situations and into sweeter ones. She found herself taken in by merchants and con-men alike, each hoping to monopolize on her promising skills only to be disappointment when she turned the tables on them, her purse heavy with coin and several new tricks up her sleeve at their expense. It wasn't long until she began to inject herself into the social lives of the upper class where she worked tirelessly to expand her list of contacts and 'friends' using whatever means were available to her. From there it was a one way track towards diplomatic work, her 'friends' pulling strings to land her a comfortable and safe job working for the kingdom by handling trade agreements.

When the alliance was signed months ago with the Glacial Knights, Tári was chosen to act as acting Ambassador, a position she accepted with relish for both the increase in salary as well as the chance to expand her influence outside of Juvegol. Currently she resides in the newly constructed Haderlock embassy located in Glaces where she spends much of her time in her tightly sealed chambers in front of quite possibly the only fireplace within a hundred mild radius. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Tári's father and mother are likely both back at the Phoenix Mountains, extracting rare gems from the lava flows and crafting items from them as was their trade.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Sikarthis|Questionable|Useful|Tall, cold, kind of a dick. Honestly, you'd think with the way I've been handling him he'd be a bit more warm. Guess it'll take a bit more to melt that ice. Hrmmm...

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Small: A stiletto dagger forged of blackened steel and jeweled with rubies. A ""gift"" from her parents according to her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Due to the treacherous nature of the Phoenix mountains Tári's people have long been sure of foot and naturally adept at moving unseen when they need to. The shadows are her friends when she has need of them, blending into the darkest corners with hardly a sound before resurfacing inside of what should have been a locked room or holding documents that were in a lockbox moments before. While she is far from combat effective she is quite skilled with holding peoples attention and interest once she has it making her fairly useful in situations that call for going mostly unnoticed. 

In her free time she has also continued to learn the trade of jewelry crafting, fetching a modest second income off her creations and ensuring that she'll never be short of coin should the demand remain.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Tári has a tendency to prefer lazing about to doing actual work and she can be difficult to motivate into doing anything for others that won't directly benefit her in some way or another. Along with that she holds grudges easily and often attempts to return any slights against her person twice over.

Three reasons

1. She's good at diplomacy regardless of her tendency to play games with people.
2. Friends in high places with an interest in keeping a close eye on Glaces. Less suspicious to have the ambassador be the one doing the watching than some random human or orc serving in the embassy.
3. ""If we send her off somewhere else she can't bother us over here.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 61
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Centaur
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Nomadic</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span>
Kuruk stands at an impressive 7ft tall and weighs around two thousand pounds, making him a giant even amongst his kin. He is very strong and heavy set, with large defined muscles that seem ridiculously big when compared to a human or elf. His skin is very dark and is almost as dark as the jet black hair that covers most of his body. He has a strong square face with clearly chiseled features, although it’s fair to say that in this case it makes him look more brutish than handsome. He has a messy set of hair that he never allows to stretch further down than his shoulders, and which extends into an equally messy beard. His entire body is covered in scars, with many being superficial. His most prominent scars include one that stretches from his left shoulder down to his right nipple, a long bald scar on his hide that stretches down his back left outer thigh, and a scar that runs from his hairline to his eyebrow. His voice is low, loud, and coarse and has a sinister ring to it. Due to his nomadic lifestyle and his estrangement from his clan, Kuruk has no easily identifiable accent. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> He wears a gladiatorial style helmet made of steel, which he adorns with streaks of blood for no apparent reason. He wears chain-mail armour that drapes back to cover a fair section of his lower half, and which is supplemented by leather shoulders and arms. He would like to buy better armour, but his current armour alone cost him a bomb because it had to be specially made and tailored. He has recently had his horse shoes replaced, an event neither he nor the fitter enjoyed. He wears a large leather belt over his mail which has various sized pouches. He only carries what he needs. 

His helmet is based off <a href=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/71/7a/b6/717ab629bd4a2740057e62d8c960fd31.jpg"">this</a>. And his armour of a mixture of <a href=""http://ironwindmetals.com/store/images/fantasy/DF-726.JPG"">this</a> and <a href=""http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/333/0/3/brown_leather_armor_by_vofffka-d5mjrah.jpg"">this</a>.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Kuruk is a combination of some of the worst traits a person can have; he’s short tempered, arrogant, stubborn, vicious and pretty stupid for the most part. He has a raging blood-lust that might be considered psychopathic were it not for the odd bout of sympathy or lust. He has little time for loyalty, though he has the audacity to expect it from others. He has never lost his sense of entitlement and will take whatever he thinks he deserves. Overall, he’s just a nasty p**** that most should stay clear of. Two of his few redeeming features include the fact that not only does he not discriminate against any race, but he is also angered by slavery and has often worked to free slaves for cheap pay. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> He lives for three things: Fighting, drinking, and having sex. The last of which is a rather nightmarish sight to behold. He has little time for anything else unless it can help him achieve the first three things. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Besides being a fighter, Kuruk is a very good drinker. He is good at manual labour, but anything that requires him to rub a few brain cells together is probably going to leave him stumped.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
Kuruk was the first born son of Beodrum the Brave, Alpha of the Numidian Herd. The herd was, and still is, one of the largest and most powerful centaur herds in the known lands. His father was also gifted with a titanic body but had a sharp mind to accompany it, making him a powerful entity. Kuruk was therefore brought up in his father’s shadow and was made to believe that one day he would rise to become the herd’s alpha. As a result he spent the first 25 years of his life growing into a fine warrior, though that’s about all. Even from a young age it was clear that he lacked his father’s mind and in fact was rather dim and odd. However his younger brother, Yao Guai, actually seemed to surpass their father’s intellect if anything. 

When Beodrum eventually passed away the herd followed Centaur custom and held a series of duals to determine who would be the next Alpha. Kuruk cleaved through the competition until he came across his final opponent. Much to his shock, his younger brother had also decided to fight for the title and clearly seemed to have the crowds favour. Kuruk thought the fight would be a breeze, but he was terribly mistaken. Not only did Yao Guai best him in speed and agility, but he had also spent years studying Kuruk and his fighting style. Kuruk wasn’t just beaten, he was humiliated. Yao Guai did not rush to beat his brother and spent time showboating to the crowd, who clearly had expected the spectacle (much to Kuruk’s confusion). When the fight eventually drew to a close Kuruk was forced to the floor and was told to grovel at the new Alpha’s feet. Yao Guai did not want to kill his brother, but he did want to make it abundantly clear who was in charge. Kuruk was too full or pride and anger though, and he would not submit. Instead he took out his brother’s legs and fled, incurring the herd’s anger. A few chased after him and one Centaur even managed to hit Kuruk with a spear, but fortunately they quickly gave up the chase having thought he would be too stupid to survive on his own. 

For a few years he wandered aimlessly about and only survived by robbing the odd unfortunate traveler, until he had a rather juicy bounty on his head that is. As it would turn out, one of the many people he had robbed was actually a rather wealthy nobleman and slaver, a man by the name of Vasilly. This resulted in Kuruk being captured and made a slave himself. He was taken to a mining town and was forced to do various tasks, from dragging around ores to working a horse mill. He spent nine years a slave in Shimmerock at the mercy of Vasilly and his friends. In that time he befriended both Icemen and Minotaurs, realising that at their cores these strangers were not so different. He even had his way with some of the female Minotaurs when the guards were not around. 

It was not long after his 38th birthday that he was pulled from his normal duties to undertake a rather unusual task. Due to an attempted escape attempt by a few icemen the previous night, Vasilly found himself with a bunch of dead horses and a wagon that was unable to pull itself. Vasilly therefore given the option of going to trade with one less wagon full of ore, or to have Kuruk pull a wagon beside his own steed. His greed quickly made up his mind for him. That said, Vasilly was not foolish and so sacrificed some of his load in order to accommodate a few extra guards. The expedition was agonisingly long and took the convoy all the way south to Olenport, the blackmarket port city of Talbor. Unfortunately for Vasilly however, he did live long enough to set his eyes upon the rich assortment of market stools or the deep blue sea. It was as they approached the city that Kuruk finally found his chance at freedom, for the convoy was forced along a rocky bank. Unwilling to live another day as a slave, Kuruk charged down the slope with Vasilly’s wagon right behind him. In a feat of utter insanity Kuruk managed to break free of the carriage by jumping over a pile of rocks which the carriage then buckled against and shattered with the speed. He was not completely uninjured, but was still together enough to recover his master and drag him into the nearby forest. A small manhunt did eventually pursue him but all they ever found were Vasilly’s various limbs scattered around.

After this Kuruk fled into the south and spent the next few decades working as a mercenary, having learned from other slaves that such a business promised both blood and gold. He worked with various groups and individuals, and at one point even led his own ragtag company of Orcs, Saurians and Doraks. He eventually began to specialise in slave rescues and other messy operations. Over the last few years he has begun to venture North again, but really he just goes where the work takes him. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Both his parents have been dead for decades. His only other family is Yao Guai, the Alpha of the Numidian Herd, whom he hates and has not seen in more than thirty years. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
WIP 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Large Weapons: Warhammer | Medium Weapon: Whip | Small Weapon: Medicine</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Kuruk is rarely seen without a Warhammer in his hand. He currently uses a heavy steel mace that would be too heavy for most to use. In fact the smith that made the weapon forged it to be a showpiece, thus the neat engravings of chains and skulls. Due to its weight it is not the easiest thing to handle, but in Kuruk’s strong hands can be swung with devastating force, made worse by the spikes that adorn it. Even if someone was to get caught with the staff part of it they would suffer severely. He tends to use both his hands when using it, but can alternate between either of his hands for a weaker one handed swing. It looks a lot like <a href=""http://images.wikia.com/pjdf/images/2/2f/Warhammer_render.jpg"">this</a> but bigger and thicker. 

Kuruk also carries with him his former master’s whip. A nasty little thing with multiple metal tipped lashes. He rarely uses it in battle, and instead saves it for whenever he gets the opportunity to go head to head with a slaver. He keeps this on his belt.

Lastly, Kuruk is currently carrying 3 small vials of ‘Stone Blood’ and 2 bottles of weak health poultice. Stone Blood grants its consumer a much higher pain threshold, but arguably to a risky extent. It should be noted that whilst the consumer may <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span>less pain, the amount of damage they take is no different. The Health Poultices (which are called something stupid too) are applied to wounds to relieve inflammation, prevent infection, and aid in the healing process.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Kuruk relies purely on sheer strength and power, and to be fair, it has served him fairly well the majority of the time. Whilst he might not be as fast or agile as other centaurs due to his bulkiness, he makes up for it in endurance. He is good at leading a charge due to his confidence and presence, but to call him a good leader in general would mean that you have failed to see his stupidity and rashness.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Like all centaurs, Kuruk is weak to cold iron and his legs provide four easy weak points. Due to his bulkiness he finds it particularly hard to protect his back end, and so you are likely to see him spinning about wildly during battle in a dizzy attempt to combat this. He is easily outsmarted, but one should be cautious when trying to take advantage of him. He really is the perfect archetype of a dim-witted brute.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Though not really a companion per se, there is currently a chocolate <span class=""bb-s"">flavoured</span> coloured wing lemur stalking him. It is a small thing that looks like an earth lemur but with larger ears, larger eyes and has furry parachute like wings beneath its arms. It has a habit of randomly appearing to steal Kuruks food just as he’s about to eat it. It also appears to be relatively clever, having learned to sit on a particular spot on Kuruks hide which he can never reach (with angers him to no end). Kuruk has not named the fiend and will often go berserk in an attempt to catch and crush it.

Age: 201

Gender: Male

Species: Orc

Kingdom of Origin: Haderlock

Physical appearance: <img src=""http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/183/d/4/orc_rider_by_thebastardson-d55pfn1.jpg""/>
Rûyk stands 6'3'', just below average height for an orc, but weights a lean 237lbs - still possessing remarkable fitness and physique for his years. His hair runs straight, long and black, although flecks of grey have started to creep in. His skin is light grey, lined faintly with both the work of years and battle. His face is smooth, kept closely shaven - the only outstanding feature a scar which runs from his right cheekbone to his ear, part of which is missing. His smile is... ""toothy"", to say the least, but most striking are his eyes: deep set and almost unnaturally black - a quaint, unusual feature - but captivating to all who meet his stare. Lastly, his right arm is covered in a complete sleeve tattoo: a complex set of images depicting the major battles and conflicts in Rûyk's life; scarlet and black dominate, making for a striking conversation starter.

Attire: Rûyk was a former sergeant in the Nordavind, and due to his distinguished service - got to keep his ceremonial light plate armour. It has dulled somewhat, but in such times of need Rûyk has once again taken to proudly wearing his breastplate and helm, although he no longer sports chainmail beneath. To aid mobility, Rûyk wears a mixture of toughened leather and hide armour splinted with steel over key regions. His armour is light but effective - and importantly, still displays his old Nordavind sergeant stripes on the breastplate. If he would fight in anything, it would be this.
  
Personality: Rûyk can often come across as detached, stoic and dispassionate. This is often true, although passion and anger can be quick to stir in him when summoned, like an long silent mountain suddenly letting the world know it was a volcano all along... In his own way he is quite a caring man - he is certainly thoughtful, with a hardened sense of honour that intersects his decision making. Whilst a 'good' person, Rûyk is quite hard and calculating. He isn't dark or cruel as such, but if cruelty is a means to a greater good, then so be it. There was once upon a time when he enjoyed the bloodlust that came with battle, and while successes can raise a wry smile from that deeply preserved sense of humour, duty calls upon him far more than pleasure as he enters his twilight years. Rûyk's passion is in his family, his nation, his people and the service he has done for them - all other actions are a step in securing the wellbeing and prestige of these important parts of his life. 

Hobbies/interests: Rûyk has lived a soldier's life for a long time, and enthuses not only about military strategy, but its history. This is not to say Rûyk is an academic by any stretch, but he has an enthusiasm for understanding the great battles and conflicts of the past which resounds in his voice whenever the topic is brought up. Additionally, Rûyk has become fairly accomplished at the mandolin - quite an atypical feature when examined next to his battle-scarred appearance. He has turned his hand at an original lyric or two, but he predominantly plays simple folk music as a unpretentious means of entertainment.  

Backstory: Rûyk was born in the mountains of Talbour, in a settlement dominated by the iron mines. His father was a labourer in one of the great pits that ran deep into the belly of the land; his mother sended to the great shire-horses which pulled the heavy iron carts down into Maceron, to be processed by the steel works. As Orcs in a land dominated by humans, and working class Orcs in a feudal system at that, his early life was challenging - and it was only to get harder. His father died of Nocardiosis when he was only six, so spent the majority of his early childhood raised only by his mother. To better their chances in life, Rûyk's mother took a gamble: moving to Maceron - the capital of Talbour. She had worked with horses her whole life, and as Orcs live considerably longer than humans, had accumulated greater experience with them than most expert breeders and trainers. There was an arrogance, of course, within the system that procluded much in the way of career progression, but she managed to convince a horse trader to take her on as an aide. That trader just so happened to also sell horses to the great knights that were held up as heroic, mortal gods manifest as men, via the propoganda the kingdom propogated. 

In truth, Rûyk's life wasn't much better. They had a hovel in the slums and education stemed largely from his mother, but given that her own was limited, he was slow to pick up even basic reading and writing skills. Still, Rûyk grew to be strong, tough and street-wise in his own way. He joined his mother in working with the horses - seeming to possess an intrinsic affinity with them, on account of being brought up around them. He was 19 when an incident happened that would change his life quite profoundly:

A deal had been struck to provide two young geldings to the Knights of the Ram - the country's greatest warriors. Naturually, these two horses were of exceptional stock and breed - two rare diamonds amongst many thousands of lesser gems. The King's elite knights only took the best, so Rûyk was quite shocked when he was asked to accompany his mother's master to deliver them; the only issue was, they were not to deliver them to the castle barracks, but to the mountains where many of the knights were training potential recruits. The journey was long, but in riding the two geldings it was made much easier - each was a joy to ride. As they neared their destination Rûyk heard a distinct shout in the woodline: it interwove anger and fear - it was unique but strangely beckoning. Rûyk turned his horse into the woods, much against the advice of the horse trader: what he found was a scene unlike any other... A human knight, unmistakably a young Knight of the Ram judging by his armour, stood wth two dead men at his feet, bastard sword held in a defensive but poised position. Against and around him stood five more men; the knight's horse was dead, shot with several bolts that stuck out from its hide. The men that stood against him held out swords and axes of their own, inching closer but clearly cautious against the knight's skill. As Rûyk arrived he quickly understood and assessed the scene, but confirmed it when he saw the tribal tattoos which adorned the face of the agressors. They were noted and infamous bandits: the obsidian dawn. 

Family: Rûyk is widowed. He had a wife, Brenna, who was 14 years his junior. They met when Rûyk was 42, still relatively young: he was a castle guard and she a member of the kitchen staff. Their first affair was electrifying, and from there their relationship grew closer until the two intertwined their lives so much, only death would part them. Unfortunately, many, many years later - it did. They had lived their whole lives together - she was his greatest support in their upheaval from Talbor, throughout his military campaigns and through a myriad of lesser plights. She died at 178, when Rûyk was 192; it was a cancer which claimed her - one so strong it took her quickly, which was itself a blessing. The effect is that Rûyk carries a shadow within him, hidden deep. He gets on - such is his way and that of his people, but life is a little colder now - all joys more faint and fleeting. 

In their marriage Rûyk and Brenna had two children: M'algluk - his eldest son, now aged 117; and Frella - his daughter, now aged 38. Both are independent in their own way: M'algluk, being far older, chose to carve his path in one of the most prestigious careers open to an Orc - the route of a master smith. His son works in Juvegol, in the royal armouries making weapons and armour for the castle guards and the elite of the Nordavind. To say that Rûyk is proud of his son would be an understatement. 

His daughter was brought into the world much later, when the two were settled in Haderlock. Rûyk was still in the Nordavind and had just completed a ranging assignment, leading the 'iron wolves' scout regiment against a band of minotaurs which were encroaching too far in the forestland that lined the great Frost River. Rûyk blames the excess of minotaur blood which stirred his loins when he arrived home the night his mission was finished - they certainly hadn't planned another child, but fate conspired to produce one. Frella was a delightful child, and is the happiest part of Rûyk's life in many ways. Frella has her own fisheries business, catching and selling the unique and highly prized Frost River Cod - arguably the finest fish to taste in Tithe - or so she says. 

Relationships: N/A. Rûyk has not moved on, truly, from the death of Brenna - his soul mate. This is not to say it will never happen, but there is no one special in his life at present. 

Weaponry: Rûyk has a fine array of weapons, collected over his time as a soldier and warrior. His large weapon is spear, which doubles up as a lance. The weapon is approximately 3 metres in length, made of fire hardened ash and galvanised with dragonbone, which also forms the exceptionally sharp tip. Secondly, Rûyk carries a one handed battle axe, made of hardened steel. Finely crafted by Orc smiths, it has a sharp bladed side and a deadly spike on the other, similar to most warhammers - and designed to puncture plate armour. Finally, Rûyk carries a small 6'' dirk blade for last resort and a collection of 10 throwing knives, kept in a leather satchel on his waist. His aim is... pretty good, for an old Orc!

Abilities: Rûyk is a veteran soldier, having experienced more campaigns, battles and skirmishes than anyone else he knows, with a few notable exceptions. He is a tactician and strategist of note, bringing his experience to bear on situations on a macro and micro-level. He can read an unfurling battle like a book, just as he can read the body language of a foe before he strikes, anticipating blocks and counters instinctively. His skill with the blade as a heavy infantry line troop is equal to his strength in the saddle as a light dragoon; Rûyk is a very well rounded combatant. He has also retained his impressive strength, being far stronger than most men (although nothing quite like a Minotaur, or other such massive beings). Finally, Rûyk is a very capable smith, making many weapons, pieces of armour and shields himself.
 
Weaknesses: Rûyk used to be pretty quick, but age has slowed him some. While he gets by on anticipating moves, he has found himself half a second behind the pace of a strike once or twice recently, and whilst nothing fatal has happened, it concerns him. Also, as an Orc he isn't always nuanced with the finer elements of diplomatic speech: a sword is a sword, a spade a spade - rhetorical weaving isn't his thing. 

Companion: 'Cressida' is a 9 year old black gelding; Rûyk purchased her as a foal and trained her himself, and as such, they have a superb relationship. She is 15.3 hands tall and weighs 1200 lbs; lithe, strong, responsive and courageous - she is an excellent mount for a former member of the Nordavind.

Bruh

Anyways, you'll probably be seeing a lot of me. I'm a silly fool, so don't take anything I say seriously because I promise you it's not meant to be taken seriously (unless it is, and if it is, you'll know it is).

I also look forward to reading your sheets.

Also SepticGentleman is a troglodyte and will probably eat your first born child. Run while you still can.

(we're building a quote pyramid to the stars) 

Something tells me that a weapon like that wouldn't be very effective (especially since it has a very limited range and when you got near the end of the ten meters it would begin to slow down) but that's not something I'd deny you for; you do you. Also, certain races require magical artifacts like staffs or wands to use magic, though other races can use such devices to focus it. Note, however, that wands and staffs have no magical power unto themselves; if a Dorak picks up a magic wand he still won't be able to use magic. They're just made to concentrate energy that's already there.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/fat-boy-kyle"">@Fat Boy Kyle</a> Yeah I tried to ignore that. I was concerned until i read the rest of the sheet that she was going to be your everyday ordinary MMORPG slut, but I trust that you won't turn her into that. </div>"

That's not my question. Dryads are magical beings, and their magic normally manifests itself in their element in some way or another. I'm asking what kind of abilities are you intending for her to have?

As someone who has managed superpower RPs in the past, and in doing so I have seen people use things ranging from bloodbending to literal death manipulation. Air Manipulation isn't outside of that realm, and there is a plethora of things you can do with it that is a no-go. I just want your input on what kind of capabilities she'll have in her hands so we can sort that out before you spend time making her character.</div>"

Air currents/movements.

Basically pushing with air. Whether for herself to suddenly change her directional movement, or for a target to push them away/pull closer.
Although useless against bullets, those go at a high enough speed to 'punch' through the current. Thrown weapons can be easily diverted, while bolts/arrows can only have their trajectory altered by a few degrees.

Also, if used creatively, creating a downwind from your opponent towards you can make eavesdropping slightly easier, as well as masking your own sound.

She can also use it to slightly increase a projectile's range. No, she can not control the air inside a person's lungs, blood, etc. However, having nearby sand/dust blown into someone's eyes is really, really gonna suck.

I highly doubt she would think of a tornado or hurricane. She's not that reckless/unpredictable.</div>"

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/kimiyosis"">@Kimiyosis</a> There is no Dryad for the air itself, although I could see a Dryad maybe being a cloud or storm spirit.

Could I ask a couple of quick question Maxx? Just got my background section to complete for my CS and could just do with picking your brain on one or two things to complete it: 

The intro implies that Haderlock is only c.60 years old, is that correct? If so (since my character is just over 200), Rûyk would have lived much of his life in Talbour (?) - could he have been one of the originals who fled, or was there a second wave of those who left to found Haderlock? Also, my character is supposed to be an experienced solder; I can make up some campaigns etc, but what kind of conflicts would the Nordavind have been involved in? Are there non-knight based military arms in Talbour he could have been a part of?

Thanks in advance.</div>"

Yeah, I guess. Usually its pretty easy for me since I've developed plenty of explanation/balancing behind Davos when I first adapted him into 3.5e. I might not go with him, since I've been reusing characters like crazy as of late. It's probably better to make a new one.</div>"

Yeah, I'd rather not have hemomancers around here. They can very easily get ridiculously OP.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/sibelius"">@Sibelius</a> Firstly, I must point out that a two-hundred-year-old Orc is about middle-aged, so he's starting to get on the old side. That said, nothing's stopping you. I can give you a few different examples of conflicts which the Nordavind have been involved in: 

-The Minotaur Wars: There's been several of these. The humans and minotaurs fight constantly over an area of fertile land in the southeastern part of the country that both claim as their own (this will make more sense once the map is done). Considering the size of the Minotaurs, the Nordavind are almost always called in to fight against them. 

-The Dragonkin War: So about ten-fifteen years ago, a group of Dragonkin (like saurians but with wings and fire breath) came out of hibernation in the Desolate Mountains to the Northeast of Haderlock and started to burn towns to the ground. The Nordavind were called in to fight them, and a really big fight initiated where a lot of the soldiers were killed. The group of about fifteen Dragonkin lost, but at the price of many soldiers. 

-The Frost River Uprising: This was a smaller conflict where a slave uprising of minotaurs, centaurs, icemen, and humans fought with Nordavind troops and Juvegol city guards because they were being forced to build the bridge over the River Frost, which is extremely treacherous. The Nordavind really shouldn't have been called in, but the slaves started burning buildings and so the king at the time decided to shut them down permanently. Needless to say, few Nordavind were hurt in this fight. 

-The Invasion of Glaces: About thirty years ago, some wise guy had the bright idea to invade Glaces. This was a bad plan. 

Those are just a few prevalent examples. You can make up your own fight if you want to (since 90% of this stuff I just spit out whenever it's necessary anyways). 

@All: Okay, looks like the Beastiary is a go. I'll start work on it soon.

Where does it say cabbage-ish? 

(I know, but that's why it's so funny; because the game is so goddamned terrible that they resorted to making a cabbage deity to get more players. The game in itself is ran terribly and the graphics are sub-par).

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tobias Fischer"" type=""button"">Tobias Fischer [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Tobias Fischer
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 41
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Orc
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of origin:</span> Jikari

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Standing above the rest at 6'8 people began confusing Tobias for his father from an early age, Lukas Fischer already stood a head taller than the other orcs that lived in Blackstone bay and his son was quickly catching up. For the past year it's become a necessity for Tobias to duck when entering the houses that littered the bayfront, Tobias couldn't complain though - his long arms and slim body meant he could climb the masts faster than anyone else; even the stronger, bulkier, older boys that would loiter around the harbour couldn't beat Toby to the top - not even if they wagered a few copper coins on it. A fishing accident had left a deep scar running from the bottom of his left ear to the left side of his mouth, he has dark, piercing blue eyes and a jaunt face with defined features. His hair is silky black with dark brown streaks in colour, he leaves it grow wildly only occasionally styling it for special occasions. Despite being taller than most orcs Tobias would regularly lose battles of pure strength, arm wrestling and barrel throwing was to be avoided against the muscle-bound, bruiser types that roam the bay however years of hard work on the boats have given Tobias a lean, toned physique with decent enough power and body strength to prove troublesome to the pirate raiders that whilst infrequently encountered, are quick to shed the blood of any race if it meant a shiny prize or a purse full of coins.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Tobias usually wears loose, linen shirts of the varying dull colours that are accessible at Blackstone beneath the thin, boar-hide, tribal jacket/waistcoat that keeps him safe during skirmishes with the raiders. He also wears puffy pants that are taped tightly around the ankle so that the bottoms fold to hang over the tough, grippy boots that Tobias preferred to wear around the ship. Tobias rarely felt the need to change clothes often wearing the same garments for weeks at a time, jumping in the sea seemed to stop them from smelling like anything other than sea-salt and Tobias loves that smell.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Tobias is very curious of the world around him, he knows that a huge world exists but has never really left Blackstone bay to explore it. However he often dreams and speaks of adventuring one day, but moans that their isn't an easy enough reason to just up and leave. He's often opinionated but ultimately wishes to prove that there's more to orcs than meets the eye with his caring, loyal and compassionate nature. He's keen to learn and despite being rather intelligent acknowledges that he's got a lot to learn before he becomes the Orc he aspires to be. He will avoid confrontation when he can but ain't afraid to come out swinging once he's backed into a corner.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Fishing, gambling around the dock and searching the seabed for valuables.
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tobias was taught to fish by his father: Lukas, who is widely regarded as one of the most skilled in his profession, tales are told around the bay how he took a group of fishermen out to sea on the darkest, coldest night of winter when the food had run scarce and the people were starving, they thought him dead but three days later the veteran returned with plentiful enough fish to last the next two winters. Tobias has also developed a good idea of game theory and if there's a clever bet to be made he'll be the first one to make it. Tobias has a basic understanding of alchemy that he learned from an old, tatty diary written by his mother, he treasures the diary more than anything else in the world and a lot of the pages he can not understand.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Born in the mostly quiet fishing village of Blackstone bay Tobias Fischer was far away from the complexities and worries that a lot of people in Tithe face. That's not to say life was easy for Tobias, he only knew his mother until the age of sixteen when she was taken by a rival tribe (not sure how much backstory you wanted to do on the orcs but I recall you said there were different tribes, also she was a shamanistic, witch-doctor killed in a brutal fashion but Tobias' father has made it his mission to ensure Tobias never finds out), Lukas was far away assisting against rebellious minotaur clans at the time and couldn't do anything to stop what happened. Luckily Tobias was whisked away from the madness that ensued that night by a family friend who looked after him until Lukas returned. 
Tobias worked on his father's fishing boat and made good friends with a lot of the older orcs who made it a habit of calling him 'Long Toby'. One of them, Klaus Skuller, greatly admired Toby from a young age and ensured that he had a sea-worthy vessel of his own for his thirtieth birthday.  Tobias decided to call his boat 'Lucky Peace' - he couldn't decide whether he wanted to wish for luck or peace and eventually just stuck the two together, happy with his result. Tobias would work hard selling what he could to pay back the debt for the boat, Klaus politely declined the return payments but Tobias kept a lockbox beneath his bed which was slowly filling enough to afford the boat's materials.
In Lucky Peace Tobias would work for just over ten years; three years along the coast where the water was easy to traverse, and the rest in the harsher, deeper seas wherein exotic catches could fetch months of wage for the crew, yet wherever Lucky Peace went the crew would work hard to keep up with the more experienced fishermen and their oft larger, better equipped rigs. It's only been for the past few years though that Tobias has consistently larger yields than the rest but watching the hundreds of fish pour onto the deck was beginning to take it's toll and the days where he'd intensely scan how many fish were caught were replaced with days of gazing into the sunset or the mountains up north. Gargoyles lived in those mountains and Tobias had never even seen one...

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Lukas Fischer - proud father who wants his son to have the adventure filled life that he lead, dealt with his wife's death by putting a lot of time and effort into bringing up Tobias.
Miri Fischer - mother who was killed when Tobias was young, locally held in very high regard. People often tell Tobias that he has his mother's eyes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Klaus Skuller | Boisterous | Family friend (uncle figure) : 'Long Toby? Aye the kid's a good laugh he'll grow to be a great Orc like his father, lord knows he's big enough.'
Adran Lukkleberg | Hard-working, Shy | Best friend : 'He showed me kindness when I felt worthless, the guy gave me a job and introduced me to Starla, I'd do a lot for him, I know I would; I owe it to him'

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> Tobias usually fights with a basic bone scimitar although has begun to practise using a two-bladed elven sword he found whilst scavenging the sea bed. (Unless he meets someone proficient with the weapon he'll use an improvised orcish fighting style with an elven blade. I want him to be an awkward enemy as opposed to an overly strong or magically gifted enemy.)
He also is proficient at using a bone, bladed boomerang after years of launching it out over the waves only to have to swim out and retrieve it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Tobias is sure-footed and has incredible balancing and acrobatic ability for his size. He is capable of crafting basic potions mainly specialising those that harbour resistance and healing powers (superficial wounds, sea-sickness remedies, lesser poison resistance potions... Basically nothing too powerful I just want him to inherit that small amount of raw magical ability demonstrated by his mother). He's also incredibly quick to learn and his fascination of the unexplained and eagerness to explore has earned him a reputation of being a fearless (sometimes even reckless) young orc that would excel in a naval combat scenario.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Despite being tall and fit Tobias isn't as strong as you'd expect for an orc (I want to balance out his swiftness and range with the lack of brute strength an ordinary orc might possess, so he's still stronger than the average human but can't perform great feats of strength). He's also very naive and is too quick to see the kindness in people, he has good principles and values and expects others to behave and think in a similar way. He's quick to learn but avoids battles of wits with the more educated citizens of the bay and the politicians - as his father once said 'if the Fischer's were as good at words as we are at fishing the world would be a nicer place'.

Just two small tweaks: firstly, if the Wilderness Wars refer to the cyclopes, that was nine-hundred years ago, though if that referred to a fight with a centaur tribe or a minotaur clan, there's no problem. Just specify. Also, while healing potions can cure disease, slow bleeding, and remove infection, they cannot actually heal any wounds. Also, just some sentiments from my fellow mods; Toby seems a tad old for his personality. Even though orcs live long and mature more slowly than humans, a seventy-year-old orc would probably be a tad more wise than Toby is. I'd suggest moving him down to say...fifty-ish, though I personally won't deny your sheet for something like that. Fix those two small things and you're in. I like the concept of a fisherman with dreams of being an explorer -very creative. </div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 97
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Gnome
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Ostracus 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Iver is of average height and weight for his race with the usual coppery skin tone. His untidy curly hair is a rich black color, hanging down past his ears barely. His facial features are very squared, giving him a strong jawline and a permanent look of smugness. He has grown a small goatee on the tip of his chin connected to a soul patch, thinking it makes him look more “suave”. He has eyes the color of sapphire beneath his dark, arched eyebrows.
<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> <a href=""http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff9/nacron/a67a788d40011b113dae78945b9657f8_zps0ed7365c.jpg"">Iver’s Clothing/Armor</a> is a mixture of leather and cloth. He wears simple clothing so as to not hinder his dexterity in combat, but wears leather in order to add some protection for himself. Iver also has a thick cloth cloak lined with light chainmail around the neck and shoulders to keep him warm on cold nights and to add some defense to his person. His thick leather belt is also equipped with a large belt pouch on his right to carry his burglar tools, coins, potions, poisons, and herbs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Above all else, Iver is arrogant and paranoid as well as untrustworthy. His arrogance holds no bounds, making him believe he is the best person in the room at any given time; he does nothing to hide this. In fact, he makes it a point to impart his “wisdom” on anyone that can stand to listen to him. He is very suspicious and paranoid of others, being known to be a bit of a racist at times. He doesn’t truly trust anyone, making him unwilling to do anything for anyone else unless they pay him a substantial fee of course. He himself is also a very untrustworthy person. He is out to save his own hide and will do anything to save his own life, even turn someone over to the Red Legion, but of course he would never do that because he wouldn’t trust them to keep their word.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Iver is usually seen fiddling with a coin of some sort and enjoys tinkering with just about anything he can get his hands on. He also enjoys gambling when he is able to. Smoking his pipe is also a hobby of his.
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Iver is an excellent gambler, being accused more than once of cheating even though he doesn’t. His pickpocketing prowess are unrivaled, as his small size makes it easy for him to slip his hand into someone’s pocket unnoticed or cut a coin purse and vanish into a crowd easily. His hobby with tinkering with things has led him to tinkering with locks a lot of the time, and this in turn has turned into an impressive skill at being able to pick most locks. As a Gnome, he is also brilliant when it comes to enchanting and making golems and medicinal potions. He has also learned how to make poisons as potent as his medicines.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Iver was born to simple parents in Ostracus as an only child. They raised him as best they good, maybe spoiling him a bit in the process. He studied under his father for fifteen years, learning all that he could about the natural Gnome arts from him in hopes of becoming a great inventor some day. At the age of thirty, Iver had set up a place of his own to work and to learn even more about enchanting and the building of golems. Iver began making golems for the military three years after setting up his own home and workshop and continued to do so for around twenty-five years, but he soon grew bored with his monotonous work for the military, churning out golem after golem for them. It was then he decided to leave his home and go out into the world to see what it had to offer and what he could learn. After resigning from the military and saying his goodbyes, Iver left and went out into the world at the age of fifty-eight. 

Iver began his journey by traveling around the kingdom of Ostracus to see what his homeland had to offer. He found his journey to be pleasant, if not a bit boring and uneventful. He saw the entirety of his homeland by constantly traveling for five years with his personal golem. Once he had seen all he could of his homeland at the age of sixty-three, Iver decided to go see the rest of the world. Beyond the comfort of the wall and his home, Iver met misery and hardship galore; he was robbed on several occasions by “tax collectors” and beaten and thrown out of inns for being accused of cheating when he wasn’t.

His bad luck just grew worse when the war broke out four years after he left his homeland; he was arrested by those fighting his people on the accusations of being a spy for the Gnomes, and his golem was destroyed piece by piece and studied. Iver was held captive until the end of the war; he was tortured, nearly starved, and interrogated regularly over the course of the nineteen years he was held. When the war finally did end, instead of being freed, Iver was sold into slavery; he was now eighty-six years old. He remained a slave for six long years, passing from master to master. His first master was some noble, who decided Iver would make a wonderful little sideshow jester for his guests. Once he became displeased with Iver after two years, the noble sold Iver to some plantation, where he spent another four years of his life. On the forth year, Iver managed to slip his binds and escape into the night.

When he did escape, he fled into the forests and was soon lost and would have starved if not for a tribe of Centaurs finding him and being kind enough to feed him and take him in. Iver heard from the centaurs that his people had constructed a massive wall to block out the rest of the world except for the occasional Dorak and Centaur traders, otherwise anyone who was not a Gnome would immediately captured and interrogated on the suspicion of being a spy. The tribe offered to take Iver home as they would be going there to trade with the Gnomes soon themselves. Iver denied the offer and left the tribe. After leaving, Iver traveled on his own, staying away from large settlements for a while. A year after leaving the tribe behind, Iver managed to make a new golem from stone instead of metal.

It has now been four years since Iver constructed his new golem. With the added security of his new golem, Iver has started exploring larger settlements without fear of being captured again.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Iver’s small stature makes him difficult to hit, especially when he employs his dexterity and agility to dodge around blows as well as parry with his sword. He also has the ability to go about unseen and unheard. Iver also has the magic of his people to aid him in times of need, granting the ability to create golems, enchant items, and make strong medicinal potions.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Besides the natural shortcomings of his race, Iver is also very arrogant and overestimates his own skills at times. His small size hinders him in combat, making his reach short and his strength something of a joke.
<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Iver has a golem made of stone to accompany him, carry their supplies, and act as a bodyguard of sorts should the need arise.

Sir Tanzanno Ferdinand.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 
Getting up in his thirties, probably around thirty-seven. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> 
The one with a big donk. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> 
Just a boring Human. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> 
Nepharie, somewhere to the south. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> 
Tanzanno, or Tanz for short, is only just starting to get old. Of course, he's still in his prime, but he's been on the downswing for a while now. His short, angled hair is starting to get a few grayer bits, even more every day. Tanz' eyes and face are starting to show signs of crow's feet and the hollowing of his cheeks. Still, at five foot nine, he certainly has a bit of height over the average man. Don't think you can get the upper hand over him since he's getting old, he'll show any recruit he can still get them behind the ear with one hand behind his back. The many old scars and remnants of wounds certainly can attest to that.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> 
While most knights would prefer to charge into battle wielding full plate armor and hefting swords taller than them, Tanz would do otherwise. He prefers to run in wearing light chainmail, small iron plating, and generally a good chest plate. These combinations allow for Tanz to gracefully dodge and weave while fighting at the sake of less protection. Not like he needs it, anyways.  

Other than that, he prefers to wear a mix of light cloth and linen to stave off the heat of summers in southern Nepharie. You probably won't ever see him without his two weapons clipped to his belt. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Most people would call Tanzanno a cryptic bastard when they first meet him. And they're right, he is a cryptic bastard, preferring to speak in rhymes and riddles and metaphors when teaching his students in the ways of swordplay. If you can make it past the first week, he's a pretty nice person. From the lowest recruit to the stubborn nobleman's son, he'll find a way to help them. 

Years of teaching have instilled a personal sense of responsibility that he takes up on most people he meet. Most of the flair and grace he had during his younger days are gone, replaced by a calm and cool personality. Swordplay is his passion, though, and he is usually automatically interested in anything related to it. That doesn't mean he's a sword freak, he loves politics. Debate and discussion with nobles often fills his schedule. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> 
From swordplay to debate, to even an unhealthy interest in flowers, Tanzanno enjoys lots of things in the coastal hub of Port Orarius. Wines and exotic fruits grown nearby are his favorite things to eat. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
While his career is teaching the art of swordplay, Tanzanno has learned many things along the way. How to deal with nobles for example. There is a certain precise method you have to uphold around their kind, and he's become an expert at it. Debate and discussion is probably second on the list, with many a council influenced by his tacit smooth tongue. Other than that, Tanz has become an addict to the growth of horticulture. For someone first visiting his home, you would be extremely surprised at how he rivals that of a Dryad with his growing. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> 
The Ferdinand family is popularly known throughout most of southern Nepharie. The common folk dream big when hearing of the family's down to earth roots and their rise, the barons and princes from over the land flock to get a chance to be taught by a Ferdinand. The Ferdinand family started off simple. Three or four centuries ago, a fairly large family of grape growers had all of their men were drafted off and sent to fight for Nepharie. While most would expect the men to return in a state of dread with many killed and wounded, the Ferdinand men proved them wrong.

Bravery in the heart of battle and a bond grown while scraping the earth, the men stuck together. While some did indeed die, the majority managed to survive. And with it, their first tastes of sword fighting. The legend stops there, as many details have been lost, and most people only know the general story. 

Tanzanno was born under Marie Charlotte Tencinna and Rondero Ferdinand, his father being an important general in the Nepharian army and his mother being an important woman under a family of rich land owners. For the most part, he never really saw his mother on the small plantation he lived at for his young life. She had tastes like any other noblewoman, and therefor preferred lounging in castles and on the beaches of southern Nepharie. Being a man under the Ferdinand family had expectations of you, and once he turned ten years old, he was thrusted into learning swordplay.

As a young man, Tanz caught onto the sword as a carpenter would a hammer. The art came naturally, as it did most of the Ferdinand family. Their style came not from drilling or swinging a sword the entire day, it came from fierce sparring. The standard Ferdinand style consists of an adaptation of the common rapier. Thicker and with a keener edge, the estoc mixed the slashing of a longsword with the penetration of fencing. Not only that, but wielded in the offhand is a smaller sword known as an espada, bordering on the line between shortsword and dagger. 

Their original style consists of a rapid flurry of blows meant to stagger the target, while at the same time parrying and blocking with the espada, combining the two to harry an opponent into making mistakes. Tanzanno's skills in the art meant that he could get away with a lot of things, and he did. 

Tanzanna really didn't develop much of a taste for war as his father did. He preferred to stay at his home of Port Orarius, but found a way to do so. Teaching the art was his goal. From lowly soldiers to elite noblemen, he taught them all. While some left in pure stubbornness, most found his skills in teaching others to be the best option. Many southern Nepharian men have been taught and improved their skills in the twenty years or so he has been teaching. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> 
While Tanzanno for the most part rarely knew his mother who so easily left him, he knew his father well. Many an evening would be spent sparring with wooden sticks with his own father, and many an evening spent nursing bruises given by his own father. Being a general made it hard, though. Rondero was often away on campaigns, either solving riots or fighting on distant battlefields.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> 
In standard Ferdinand style, Tanzanno wields the main weapons of his family. The longsword estoc and the shortsword espada. More often than not, he has found himself in need of a backup weapon of sorts, so Tanzanno keeps a <a href=""http://www.collectarea.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/139.1.jpg"">curved dagger</a> hidden in the small of his back. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
Being a special kind of sword fighter, Tanz is very agile and quick. Attacks focused more on accuracy and speed than pure brute force can often force a person not experienced in aggressive fighting to make mistakes. A relentless attack is the core of every Ferdinand style, and with the two weapons, it certainly forces a person to go on the defensive. Other than that, Tanz is still strong and fast for his growing age, with a keen sense of reaction drilled from youth. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> 
Being focused on the attack often leaves you exposed. The drawbacks of wearing light armor are pretty obvious, and the lack of a shield increases the chances of getting hit by a projectile. The Ferdinand style, while very effective against people simply hiding behind a shield, has problems when going up against another aggressive style. In such a situation, both sides will likely be injured heavily simply due to the fact that neither are able to properly defend. His slightly larger size also works to disadvantage him. While agile and fast, his stature just works against him on that playing field. 

Also, being of noble birth, Tanz has never really experienced any sort of hard work. Of course, he's not a soft weakling, but he knows nothing of the plights of farming or mining. Nor does he have knowledge over the wilderness. Toss him out into the woods with no equipment and he might just be tempted to chase after squirrels with his sword. Really, the only thing he does well is fighting and debating.

The humans and minotaurs fight constantly over an area of fertile land in the southeastern part of the country that both claim as their own (this will make more sense once the map is done). Considering the size of the Minotaurs, the Nordavind are almost always called in to fight against them. 

-The Dragonkin War: So about ten-fifteen years ago, a group of Dragonkin (like saurians but with wings and fire breath) came out of hibernation in the Desolate Mountains to the Northeast of Haderlock and started to burn towns to the ground. The Nordavind were called in to fight them, and a really big fight initiated where a lot of the soldiers were killed. The group of about fifteen Dragonkin lost, but at the price of many soldiers. 

-The Frost River Uprising: This was a smaller conflict where a slave uprising of minotaurs, centaurs, icemen, and humans fought with Nordavind troops and Juvegol city guards because they were being forced to build the bridge over the River Frost, which is extremely treacherous. The Nordavind really shouldn't have been called in, but the slaves started burning buildings and so the king at the time decided to shut them down permanently. Needless to say, few Nordavind were hurt in this fight. 

-The Invasion of Glaces: About thirty years ago, some wise guy had the bright idea to invade Glaces. This was a bad plan. 

Those are just a few prevalent examples. You can make up your own fight if you want to (since 90% of this stuff I just spit out whenever it's necessary anyways).<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/maxx"">@Maxx</a></footer></blockquote>

I dont have too much of a problem with the sheet, in fact I do like it, but there needs to be a bit more detail. His appearance section mainly. Pictures are used as supplements and all that, but there still needs to be a bit of detail on his character. His skin for one is FAR too perfect for a swordsman. His skin should be littered with scars ranging from size because you don't get good at an art like that unless you get hurt. I've picked up training in Kendo recently and in the past two months, and while I'm still working with Bokkens I've seen some of the higher ranking members acquired a LOT of scars to add to their collection. I would honestly be surprised that he hasn't lost a few fingers. That's just an example of the detail you should be adding. I have no idea how dense he is as a person in terms of weight, what color his eyes are, stuff like that.

Secondly, the average human stands are 5'7 in this RP (since humans weren't as tall in the middle ages, which is approx. just before the time of this RP setting wise). We have a few humans reaching six feet and more so far and I've kept quiet about that, but I want to make sure you know that if you're that big and you're using a style he's using, you're at a supreme disadvantage compared to someone who is the right size for that art. I'm 5'10, and I've been put on my ass several times by people much smaller than me (sometimes my own students, although once we fight on the ground it's a different story). That's in hand to hand combat where speed and agility win out over power (because it doesn't matter how hard you hit if you don't connect). I'm trying to make you aware that your character might be more agile than an unpracticed or new swordsman, but as a human (and a large one at that) he's going to be nothing but outclassed when going up against a smaller someone who's using the same or a similar aggressive style. You might want to add that to the weaknesses which are also somewhat lacking. I say this because this:

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">The Ferdinand style, while very effective against people simply hiding behind a shield, has problems when going up against another aggressive style. In such a situation, both sides will likely be injured heavily simply due to the fact that neither are able to properly defend.</blockquote>

Isn't a weakness. It's a limitation.</div>"

His sword is a mix between a longsword and a rapier. Really, swords have a bunch of the same names and are really confusing. A one handed sword, just like the arming sword would suffice.

To answer your question,

Your race still has physical attributes that are regular to that said race. Go outside and count how many people are six or seven inches taller than everyone else (AKA a whole head and shoulders) and then apply it to the RP. We have about four humans, all male. Two of which assuming the height remained the same, on Beo's sheet, would be WAY over the average height. Essentially meaning than 50% of the male population is way over. I'm not saying it's unrealistic, I'm saying to keep in mind how tall that is and just how much bigger you are than everage (A six foot tall individual is about 10% larger than the average person height wise, which is huge). That's like the equivalent of myself compared to Shaq O'neal.

You didn't miss the meaning of fictional fantasy, you missed the meaning that you're not overly special and if you want to be overly special physically you better have a good excuse to be overly special. Because in human culture a man that big isn't going to weild a sword. They'd be in fall armor weilding a mace or battleaxe of some kind.

I know full well you are being sarcastic, but I know SOMEONE is going to eventually use that logic as a legitimate argument. I want to cover my bases and establish that my thought process for you all to see.</div>"

Oh dear I seem to have dropped all the shits I don't give! XD It's just fantasy man, it doesn't have to be appropriate for the medieval time period.

You're going to hate Maxx and I then, because it doesnt matter how fantasy the RP is. Magic is in the game, sure, but if you think you get to get away with whatever you like, then we're going to bitch slap you with magic. You can use magic to make a few things you do impossible, but not everyone in Lord Of the Rings is doing anything a human's not capable of.


I'm also going to ask you to not be so disrespectful to me, because that's really not appreciated. I'm happy to fool around and have fun, but if you want to act this way we're going to have problems. I'm treating you like an adult, but when you say ""Look at all the shits I dont give."" it's a huge red flag. So I'm going to say in a polite fashion, dont.

When I say overly special, I mean you're not a technicolor eye/hair who is the chosen one that is also a kitsune or some other stuff like that. We want relatively normal people appearance wise, if that makes any sense.</div>"

Realism is necessary in any work for it to have any semblance of dramatic tension. No, magic is not realistic. At all. However, in order for this RP to be fair to everyone and for it to have meaning to it, there have to be consequences. We establish from the beginning what the various races, magic types, etc, can do, so that way halfway through the RP we don't just say ""Well, guess what, they use magic and the problem's solved. Boom."" 

No shit elves and minotaurs aren't real. However unless Maxx decides otherwise the laws of physics, biochemistry, etc, are still on the books. Your character can't just fly around for no reason or run for a thousand miles without getting tired because, hey, there's magic, so anything goes, right? There are rules set up that are followed. Gravity exists, the sun rises and sets, there is magic and there are limits to magic. 

Beyond that, UrbanEvolution made the excellent point that a smidge of respect for the mods/GM and not throwing in unnecessary sarcasm/pictures when we're trying to deal with things seriously. 

And if you still have qualms with there being realism in this RP/our problems with your sheet, there's the unfortunate matter of this being Maxx's RP. He wants us to be the mods and has trusted our judgment-if he comes in here and sides with you I will promptly shut the fuck up. Until then, stop being a dick to Urban and stop using unnecessary amounts of sarcasm/all caps whenever someone's just explaining how the Red Sunverse works to you.</div>"

Oh dear I seem to have dropped all the shits I don't give! XD It's just fantasy man, it doesn't have to be appropriate for the medieval time period. I don't think I remember the documentary about the living Minotaurs hurling battleaxes the size of children at elven mages using mystical magicks, must have skipped that documentary, because that totally fits the medieval period, doesn't it? XD Look at the fantasy gaemz out there, it's for fun, not for realism. So what if our characters are 6 feet tall, power to us, we're awesome, who cares? Don't try and throw realism into the mix when you have monsters, and MOUNTAIN SIZED BEETLES, cuz those sure as hell aren't REALISTIC to medieval beetles! XD Let us have some fun, let us enjoy ourselves, if we can't enjoy ourselves what's the point in a roleplay that's made for enjoyment?

Also, our characters aren't overly special?

Okay okay! All of y'all knock it off; the boss is home. Firstly, Shade and Nick, you guys need to calm down. This isn't worth flaming over. 

Ok look, we're here to have fun. Roleplaying is supposed to be an enjoyable experience, but enjoyment without rules is anarchy. Every race has specific characteristics for a reason: because if every race could be whatever people wanted them to be, we'd have fifty-foot Saurians and gigantic fairies running around trampling people. I'm not going for realism here, John, I'm going for standardization. I myself have modified my characters because they didn't fit the criteria of my races. For example, I wanted to make a human baron of Haderlock who had super strength, like Hercules, but that is against the rules, so I modified him and, though he's not done yet, got the best of both world. Now he is a Halforc (though he doesn't know that, between you and me). I can guarantee that you will have fun if you participate in this roleplay, but you need to understand that this roleplay has rules and you need to follow them. 

Oh, and for the record; while I like having you here and I think Bartleby is one of our best characters, speak rudely like that to my mods again and you can leave and take your overgrown roley-poley cat with you. 

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/ink-blood"">@Ink Blood</a> That'd be great, but your issue is that there is no magic in your sheet.

Because he's an orc, he's fine. We allow people to stretch and I normally will give plus or minus three inches before I start suspecting anything (unless they're a Saurian and in that case all bets are off).

Your sheet looks really good. He's accepted and you are free to post it in the deposit. If Maxx (for some ungodly reason because I hold you scrubs to a standard higher than he expects) sees anything wrong, I got you covered.

Gonna throw out a few questions...
I couldn't help but notice there's less female characters, is it cool if I write up a female elf with Nemean lion companion? 
Are we allowed to write lore if there hasn't been any established yet? For instance not much is currently known about the orcish tribes and I've got some cool ideas that I think could work in the setting. Obviously any lore-heavy posts would be run by one of the mods
How often would you see a dragon in jikaris? Or anywhere else in Tithe? What power and personalities do they have? I just can't stop thinking of Smaug when it comes to dragons ... :(</div>"

From what I gather from the bestiary, Nemean Lions are pretty much just regular lions except they put in a cheat code to activate invincibility. I don't know how Maxx would feel about one being a companion. Personally I dig the idea, but you should think up a contingency idea just in case it doesn't fly by him. He'd also know more about orc tribes, not me. As for dragons, it looks like they were once plentiful, but civilized expansion has pushed them into lower ranges. Doesn't look like they're the intelligent kind from the description, just your average, fire breathing, cockbite flying lizards.

We are not closed to the idea of submitted lore. At least, we shouldn't be. Run it by Maxx when he gets back and work out whatever compromise you can, and everything will be fine and dandy in the end.

Dragons are interesting.

They rang a great deal from proper dragons to Wyverns to something called a Zilant (which is pretty much a Deviljho). The size varies on them, but they dont tend to be any more intelligent than wolves if that makes any sense. Dragons are legendary creatures reknowned for their toughness and the magical properties surrounding them, so slaying one is a huge feat. Some of the more intelligent dragons are up there with dolphins and humans, but none can speak or any of that.

When you see dragons, think dragons from How To Train Your Dragon.</div>"

Also, sorry if I'm missing something obvious but where's this bestiary that keeps getting mentioned? Can't Nemean Lions be like their mortal counterparts and start to grow weak if too many magic is used? If not, are there big, tameable grizzly bears?

My char idea is a female elf born into nobility, she has her father's old war-lion/bear, who for the most part seems happy to follow her. She'd be as princess-like as they come with NO combat prowess and the diplomacy skill you'd expect from a young elven princess (think Sansa stark while she's in king landing; sorry for all the GoT references but I mean barely diplomatic enough to stay alive if she was thrown in with the big fish). As she'd mainly be at political events there wouldn't be much opportunity for her pet to actually fight as it's more a defensive measure from her over-bearing and protective father to keep her safe...</div>"

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Morag-Nog"" type=""button"">Morag-Nog [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span>  <span class=""bb-i"">Morag-Nog</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 72
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Orc
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Nepharie

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> A statuesque Orcess. Much like other orcs, Morag-Nog is taller than humans. Standing at a solid 6'4, and weighing 250, her very thick bones add a curvature to her body. Broad shoulders, thick limbs. All accentuated by her thick muscles that are common to all orcs. She's an imposing force, the kind of Orcess you don't want to meet in a dark alley. Or else you might get your balls strung up on a rope. However, plenty of that intimidating factor disappears once she starts talking. That, or they see her choice of clothing. If there was any left, it would be gone by the time someone eyeballs her bad leg and her cane she uses to support herself. Years ago, Morag-Nog had suffered an injury to her leg that had ruined it. While it healed, the damage was so severe that it left some permanent damage. She always walks with a limp, and puts a disproportionate amount of weight on the other leg. If she <span class=""bb-i"">does</span> put too much weight on her bad leg, then it's almost always followed by groans of pain and agony. Now, Morag-Nog has typical orc characteristics. Thick, grey, skin. That has been scarred many a times. The most notable scar is the one that is on the knee of her bad leg, and goes down to her ankle. Slashed open by a longsword. There are plenty of other blade scars that aren't as severe, all over her, but I don't feel like describing them all! Her head is diamond shaped, with a very thick and strong jaw. That jaw accents her underbite, two large, razorsharp teeth. With thick, red lips that are of a lighter hue, and a small, triangle-shape and hooked nose. Her eyes are large, and olive color, usually having an annoyed glare to them directed at the world. Her ears are large, round, and very pointed at the tips. Finally, Morag-Nog's hair is a deep-black color, not exactly too maintained. But she keeps it in five thick cornrows that start at her hairline, and go to the back of her head.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Morag-Nog dresses <span class=""bb-i"">classily</span>. Almost out-of-character for what people expect Orcs to dress. Morag-Nog wears dresses, and puts on jewelry. The kind of outfits that look more on place with royalty. That's when she's out on the town. When she's at home, or inventing, she goes for the more practical outfits. Or practical for this time era. I don't know shit. Morag-Nog is always seen with a thin black cane.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Classy, well spoken, and more. Morag-Nog is certainly not the typical hard-headed Orc, she talks and carries herself with class compared to nobility (Despite not being one). She never speaks unless she has something to say, and, when she does, people tend to listen. One thing she does despise are people who run their mouths constantly. She'll either break her silence to shut them up with a few choice words, or more. Otherwise, she's silent. Quietly waiting and absorbing all the information these fools have to give. It's more about her apathy and cynical attitude rather than arrogance. She has seen the world before, and lost what had really mattered to her. People can call her bitter, and ruthless at worse. Morag-Nog doesn't care too much for her morals anymore. Since she's a crippled woman, and feels as if she owes the world nothing. Only thing keeping her on track would be her goal of taking technology from the Red Legion. Which, in her eyes, is more important than most of the shitstains she encounters (Especially nations and the politics of the world). However, she rarely uses violence or her brutality as the first option. Instead she goes for the cleaner route of talking her way through problems rather than killing. Morag-Nog is not a monster. She values her allies, and long as they don't act as detriments to her, she will treat them right. A give and take thing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Hard-fapping
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Morag-Nog has a mechanical mastery that is unmatched in the Kingdom (Perhaps, on par with the Red Legion if she gets an opportunity to compare. Wink, wink). If someone presents a device to her, she will take it apart and have it put back together in record time. She'll also be able to tell people what it's made of, and what it does. For Morag-Nog's knowledge spans far and wide. It needs to in order for her to invent stuffz. She can put together trinkets if she has the materials.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> How did Morag-Nog, inventor extraordinaire, come to be?

Well, get on my knee and I'll tell you....

Her father was an Orc Bandit, Dubok-Nog, leader of a group that was infamous for pillaging and raping alongside the Haderlock borders. Stealing all gold they could get their grubby little mits on - for no particular reason other than the fact that they could. He had mustered a large group of bandits that was comprised of Orcs and Humans, working in harmony as they committed filthy acts at a reasonable price. They were only truly active for a year. After awhile, people got pretty pissed off about their stolen gold. So bounty hunters, adventurers, and soldiers, came gunning for them. To the point they could operate without someone attacking them, or some ambush being sprung on them. Most of the wise chose to quit while they were ahead and leave the bandit group. While Dubok let greed take over him and try one last raid. Which was the last thing he <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span> did. However, before their fall, Morag-Nog was born in secrecy, with her mother being, Avalog, one of the former bandits that jumped ship once things looked bad. But, Avalog was alone, with an Orc daughter. She didn't want anything to do with the child now that Dubok was dead. So she caught up with one of her former ""co-workers"", Cole and Ingrid (Lovers that were planning to get married), who were close friends to Dubok (Also attempted to talk him out of his last score), and convinced them to take Morag-Nog. Before disappearing and probably fell off a cliff or something. The couple took Morag-Nog to Nepharie, where they lived out in the wilderness. Forming a little warm. Huntin' the booty ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Now, growing up in a location that was primarily owned by humans was not exactly easy. There wasn't exactly too much of a community for Morag-Nog to integrate into. Being one odd Orc in a primarily human community. Morag-Nog was mostly kept at home, at the farm. Where she was taught everything she needed to know. How to fight. How to maintain weapons. How the world works. And more. Of course, that kept her satisfied until she got older and older. Realizing that her place was not in this farming community, Morag-Nog bid farewell to that life and kept moving. She was given a horse and enough money to get started. The only problem was that she didn't know where to start. She figured that she had no choice but to put that fighting training she received to good use. She became a mercenary, a sword for hire. Her first job was to take out some thugs that were harassing a small town. Fortunately for her, they weren't trained, nor armed. So they were taken care of relatively easily. She kept doing jobs like this - which got progressively harder and harder. Morag-Nog got better and better, until she was capable of taking them. Morag-Nog made a name for herself being a brutal, but effective, mercenary that would do jobs for anyone. Eventually, she joined a group of Mercenaries comprised of multiple races. Humans, Orcs, Minotaurs, and more, all working together to take on big jobs. Like stop bandits, and beat up kids for their lunch money.

And it was the life that Morag-Nog loved. A place where she felt at home, instead of being a farm hand, she was a mercenary. Everything changed once she took a mission to take out a bandit group that were hold out in a cave. However, the group had an ambush set up to deter anyone else planning on capturing them. Morag-Nog's group were the first to show up. An epic battle took place between both groups. There was blood, body parts, and hats flying all over the place. It turned out that Morag-Nog's team were the superior fighters and had the bandits on the ropes. That's what made her get a little cocky. During her climatic fight, someone snuck up on her and nearly took her leg off with a full force sword swing. It damaged her leg badly and made her keel over. By the time the fight was over, she was rushed to the doctor. Potions and other things helped her heal faster. In a few months, her leg was healed! Mostly. She could never walk right again. That was the end of Morag-Nog's mercenary adventures at the age of twenty-five. She took her money, and her mercenary team left her to continue their adventures. Leaving Morag-Nog's life rather empty. Confined to a town in the Kingdom of Talbor, Morag-Nog was probably going to throw herself off a bridge or something.

However, she was approached by one of the people whom she did a job for in that town. A human inventor named Sarah that wanted an apprentice. Since Morag-Nog had suffered a career ending injury, she wanted the Orcess to be that person. Which was an odd request for a warrior, but she was desperate to find purpose, so she just went for it. Morag-Nog was taught everything Sarah knew about inventing, and worked on many projects with the woman. Some of them going hilariously wrong. Well, many of them weren't wrong. Morag-Nog had taken a talent to inventing, something that she felt that she did better than fighting. It was years before she managed to separate herself from Sarah and stand out on her own. Decades past, and Morag-Nog continued and became a master. A few months before current events, and Morag-Nog's was seventy-two, and Sarah had passed away. Leaving behind all of her knowledge of machinery to Morag. Who wanted to change the world with her inventions.

When the Fire Nati- I mean Red Legion, attacked, initially Morag-Nog was apathetic to it. Long as they don't disrupt her work, she didn't care about who was a king or a queen. That changed once she learned what technological feats they were capable of. She figured that she should get back into adventuring in order to get some of their technology and study it. In order to reverse engineer it and somehow come up with a counter to it.

And maybe find someone who will fix her leg.


<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Morag-Nog still has her double-ended battleax from her youth. She keeps it nice and polished, even though it hasn't tasted blood for years. For protection, she carries around two daggers with her at all times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Morag-Nog is strong as hell and equally tough. Much like other orcs. Combat used to be something Morag-Nog excelled at. Fighting whoever paid the best. Bandits, monsters, your grandmother. However, those days have long past. She hasn't exactly seen a real fight in years. Other than fighting a mugger or someone who runs their mouth too much. Morag-Nog has been taught how to use longswords, but she has learned how to use battleaxes - which became her main weapon. She used to be able to cut someone's head off with one well placed swing. It's harder to do with her disability, but she has been practicing how to fight on one bad leg. But she prefers subtly and stealth these days. As much stealth as a giant-ass Orcess can muster!

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Morag-Nog shares the same weaknesses as other orcs. Slow, bad senses, and smells bad. Morag-Nog has that aforementioned bad leg. It limits her mobility greatly, and if she stands on it the wrong way, it's gonna hurt. Someone can also take advantage of this weakness. Anyone can really. Which is why she isn't exactly too keen on fighting anymore. Even then, Morag-Nog has not seen a real fight in years, and she's pretty rusty compared to the more youthful and experienced cast members.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/jonnyh447"">@Jonnyh447</a> Yeah let's not fuck with the Nemean lions. No known material can hurt them from the outside, so they're somewhat OP. Dragons depend, because there's a shitton of different species. Wyverns are semi-common on the savannah, but the big dragons (like Elders, who are large with golden scales) live in the North Mountains and Lonesome Canyon. Lonesome Canyon is comparable to the Grand Canyon in size and is extremely long, so it contains a ton of creatures. Dragons are creatures, not intelligent beings. Some breeds of dragons get somewhat intelligent like a dog (think How to Train Your Dragon) but no Smaug. Lore-wise, send the idea to me first in a pm. I make up a lot of lore kinda as I go (y'know, since I made Tithe to begin with) and so I'm open to any lore ideas.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/mr-allen-j"">@Mr Allen J</a> Orcs are grey you little douchebag, not green. Read the race descriptions. Also, Haderlock wouldn't be a great place to be seventy years ago; it was poor as dirt because they hadn't found the gold yet. Nepharie itself probably would have been a better place to raid (because even a place with a big military can have bandits, y'know). Just change green to grey and she's accepted.</div>"

16252,Under the Red Sun,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76105-under-the-red-sun,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced']",2015-02-13 01:27:00,Maxx,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">If you see Luke referred to at any time as “Jake” please let me know. My brain decided to start calling him something different mid-sheet and I tried to correct every time I did it. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Luke Feng and Yang Tou 
 <span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 44 (comparative to mid twenties in human years) and five (with the mindset of someone much older), respectively 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> male. Yang Tou is genderless, but if it had a gender it would be male 
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Gnome and golem, respectively 
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Ostracus 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Let’s start with Luke, as he looks less weird. Luke is of slightly below-average height, being 2’10” and weighing something like 80 lbs. His skin is coppery in complexion, reminiscent of the people of Mongolia. He has a stocky build, slightly chubby around the midsection, with thick arms, solid-looking legs, and stubby fingers. He stands generally with his feet spread apart and his arms across his chest, like he’s ready to spring into action at any moment. He has narrow shoulders and a short neck upon which sits his head, which is somewhat elliptical in shape, with a large cranium and a high forehead. Luke keeps his head shaved, a sign of wealth in Ostracus. Luke has somewhat babyfaced features, with plump cheeks and a rounded chin that make him look considerably younger. He has large ears and a mongoloid nose, wide and flat. Luke’s mouth is rather small and his teeth somewhat crooked. He has thin arching eyebrows set low above his eyes and eyes which are large and  somewhat slanted. His eyes are dark brown in pigmentation.

He is somewhat based off of <a href=""http://www.westheimphoto.com/lightbox/gallery/AsiaStockPhotosJohannGudbjargarson/MNGjg007.jpg"">This picture</a> but he looks a little younger. 

Yang Tou, however is a different story. Yang Tou is an enormous being, eight feet tall and weighing several tons. Being a golem, Yang Tou is made entirely out of rock which, in its case, is copper ore. Most of Yang Tou’s body is brown rock mixed with sparkling brown ore, but chunks missing from the torso and shoulders reveal that under the rock and brown ore is a layer of beautiful green oxidized copper. It is humanoid in shape, which a wide, muscular-looking body made of rounded chunks of ore. Each segment of Yang Tou’s body is a different individual piece of rock, with the torso divided into five rocks; two shoulders, two pecs, and a stomach. Yang Tou’s shoulders are notably enormous, and it has four-fingered hands on the end of its long arms. Its legs aren’t as thick as its arms (though still quite strong) and end in a foot piece continuous with the shin which has no toes. Its head sits on an almost nonexistent neck and is a squatty, oblong shape. It has asymmetrical eyes which glow copper green and a large mouth which appears to be made from a large crevice in the rock. Despite having no ears, Yang Tou is capable of hearing.


<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Luke wears a Shenyi, a special kind of silk robe which citizens of Ostracus wear. Different social classes wear different colors (because I love me some Brave New World). Luke is a Gongunin, an artisan class. Luke wears an earth-toned shenyi due to this, which is a forest green with an earthy brown trim. On his feet, Luke wears a pair of simple leather sandals. Around his waist, Luke wears a belt on which his sword is sheathed. The belt is brown, and blends in with the trim of the robe. He wears on his head a green-and-brown <a href=""http://cdn2.brooklynmuseum.org/images/opencollection/objects/size3/CUR.34.908_side.jpg"">Mandarin hat</a>. 

Yang Tou wears no clothing, but between his shoulders is a wooden chair of sorts on which Luke sits when they travel. The chair is strapped to Yang Tou’s back with a harness. Under the chair, attached to the same harness, is Luke’s travelling supplies. Hanging from the chair’s left arm is a twine sack of clementine-sized oranges, which Luke has charmed to keep the oranges inside from rotting. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Luke is a generally amiable fellow with a taste for exploration. Unlike most of the stuffy, xenophobic gnomes of Ostracus, Luke is very extroverted and explorative. He loves travelling to new lands and seeing new faces, and is generally cordial to all. He’s very good natured and, while he lacks some in the mental facilities department, is usually a cool guy to be around. He loves telling stories of adventures which may or may not have happened to him while on his adventures. Basically, he’s a great guy to be around at a campfire. While Luke may be kind and polite, he’s also incredibly naive and rather lacking in the common sense department. Luke does some really stupid stuff from time to time (like try to walk up to a sleeping dragon) and his tendency to see the best in people often gets him into trouble. Morally, Luke is more of a deontological kind of guy, with strict rules that he does not break. He tries not to exploit people and often feels the need to give something to people who help him. A big character trait of Luke is his resilience. It’s not easy being a gnome outside of Ostracus, but even though he is often insulted or denied service at more conservative places, Luke never seems to be bothered by this. He is run by an idea that one day he will show the Eastern World just how great gnomes can be if you don’t run a them with a torch in one hand and a battleaxe in the other.  

With that in mind, Yang Tou presents an excellent foil to Luke. Yang Tou, being a living rock, isn’t exactly what you’d call “smart”. But, while Yang Tou doesn’t have much book smarts, he is somewhat wise; he’s much more pragmatic than Luke, knowing when to fight and when to run, though he’d totally bomb a math test. Yang Tou is quiet and serious, very rarely speaking. He only speaks Gnomish, unlike Jake who learned the usual english through centaur traders, and so most other people find him to be completely unintelligible. Yang Tou is extremely protective of Luke, and has an almost fatherly affection towards him, often getting angry with him for doing foolish things but never abandoning him. Yang Tou is also somewhat xenophobic, often acting irritated and brash when exposed to new faces. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Luke’s yearning in life is to explore and travel. He loves seeing new cultures and learning new languages and cuisines. He loves to paint and cook, often trying out ways to bridge Gnomish and Eastern styles in both art and cooking. Luke eats a ton, and, though he has a very low alcohol tolerance, will occasionally frequent pubs to chat with the other citizens. Luke’s favorite thing to do is sit in the middle of a Nephari tavern or Talborian pub and chat with travellers while sipping at some classic Gnomish herbal tea, trading stories and learning new experiences. Luke’s favorite snack is an orange, and he keeps a bag of them hanging from his chair on Yang Tou’s back. He has a fascination with the stars and stargazing, and knows the names of every constellation by heart. 

Yang Tou doesn’t get to go to pubs. Yang Tou spends most of his days walking around with Jake on his back and seeing nature. While he doesn’t seem like the type for it, Yang Tou has come to enjoy looking at nature, and has become very appreciative of its beauty. He often spends time looking up at the sunset or the blooming starts in the night sky while Luke explores, waiting for the poor little fool to piss someone off so he can come smashing through to save him. Again. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Well Luke probably wouldn’t be a cartographer if he weren’t a good navigator. Luke spent years studying the stars and learned from centaur traders how to find his location using them. Luke is artistically gifted as well, possessing enough skill at least to draw a good map. He’s a decent cook, though his “hybrid” creations often fall flat (nothing says “home-cooked-meal” like chimera-fried rice with Doraki curry on it). 

Yang Tou’s skills consist of walking, smashing things, carrying stuff, and smashing more things. He also kills it on the tambourine. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Luke was born in the small Ostracan town of Shanling, the son of an enchanter. Being artisans (enchanters magically fortify armor and building materials), Luke was born into the Gongunin caste, the fourth-highest caste under priests, soldiers, and royal officials. Luke was the fourth of seven children, two of which died very young (the family’s seventh child died in childbirth and the child right after Jake died of smallpox). Luke’s childhood is fairly...unexciting. His family was fairly rich, as his father had a good, high-paying job and his two eldest brothers took home a military paycheck. But life got kinda...boring for Luke after a while. His father occasionally took trips with him to other parts of Ostracus, but Luke found it all to be pretty boring, as all of Ostracus pretty much looked the same to him. What really interested Luke was the environment outside of Ostracus, but the wars were raging between Nepharie and his homeworld, and so he was not permitted to travel outside of the country. When Centaur traders or Dorak merchants came to town, Luke was the first one to run off towards them. He learned a good bit of english (illegally) through the centaur traders, and on several occasions attempted to smuggle away in their things so he could see the outside world. 

When Luke turned twenty, he was sent to the Academy to study astronomy. While Luke found the stars to be interesting (and astronomers were noble members of society in Ostracus), but at the same time studying to sit in a dusty observatory all day and never see the outside world. He graduated after a few years and decided that he was going to travel some and see where he could find more interesting work. He got a job in the south of Ostracus as a cartographer’s apprentice, mapping towns and roads. The specific cartographer who he worked for was attempting to make a map of all of Ostracus, but he hadn’t travelled to some of the areas farther North. So, he sent Luke north to explore and sketch maps of the roads and towns. He travelled to all of the towns in the north of Ostracus and even got a chance to travel into some of the Wilderness colonies past the border (though shortly after he left them the Nepharie army took them over). On his way back, though Luke took a detour into the eroded mountains of northwestern Ostracus, where he found a large cave and, out of curiosity, entered it. 

Inside of the cave was a massive beast, a fifteen-foot-tall grotesque humanoid made of what appeared to be green jade. It had four arms and a bald, ugly head on which were two tusks which jutted from the corners of its mouth. It sat in a meditating pose in front of a lake of molten copper, as if asleep. When it sensed Luke’s presence, the creature turned angry and rose from its meditation, suddenly sprouting a massive pair of dragonlike wings. Just as it was about to attack him, Luke conjured a golem from the copper in the walls of the cave and defended the attack. Yang Tou was born. The newly-made sentient golem and the monster battled for several minutes before Jake was able to escape with the golem and get out of the cave. 

 Luke returned to the cartographer a new man with a new passion; he was going to be an explorer. He worked with the cartographer to get some money and help with the map and, after it was all over, decided that he was going to make a map of all of Tithe. He announced this to the new emperor, who decided to grant him permission to leave Ostracus (this was shortly after the wall was built) and make a map of Tithe. Ever since, Luke and his trusty golem sidekick have travelled Tithe, attempting to draw an accurate map and meet as many new people as they can.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Luke is able to use magic (which I will talk about later) and carries with him a steel scimitar about a foot long. He carries no other weapons. Yang Tou is a weapon, so he doesn’t carry any.
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Luke, firstly, is a fairly-capable gnomish mage, able to use the four elements of light magic but not yet able to combine them past mud and dust. He knows a little bit of potion-making from university, and also is a pretty good golem-maker, able to control up to two golems at one time (not counting Yang Tou who is somewhat of an anomaly as you’ll read below). Luke isn’t a particularly skilled swordsman, but if his life absolutely depended on it he could probably figure out which end the pointy one is. 

Yang Tou is an anomaly that very seldom exists in golems. Most golems are created, pop into existence for a bit, do their masters’ biddings, and then disintegrate. Yang Tou, however, is one of the few examples of a sentient golem, a golem who was created with a particularly powerful blast of magic and was then kept in existence for a while. This means that Yang Tou exists as an entity unto himself (even though his sheet is tied in with Luke’s) and can move independently without Luke’s commands. That being said, Yang Tou is the muscle of the duo. He is able to lift extremely heavy amounts of weight and punches with quite a force. Yang Tou is quite durable as well, as he is made out of rock (though his copper core isn’t as strong as his rocky outside). Yang Tou cannot use magic. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Luke in himself is not a fighter. While he carries a sword, it isn’t of much use to him and he’s somewhat naive, so he can be easily tricked. While he can use magic, he can’t use it offensively as well as he can use it defensively. His naivety and greenness in combat is balanced by Yang Tou’s strength and warrior’s soul, though Yang Tou is somewhat slow mentally. Basically what I’m saying is that Luke and Yang Tou complete each other, so if you separate them they turn from one hard-to-beat team to two easy-to-conquer foes. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Luke and Yang Tou travel together. Yang Tou would qualify as Luke’s mount, but Yang Tou was cool enough to warrant his own section of the sheet. 

 <span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> (anything I didn’t cover in this sheet.)</div>"

That'd be great if this were a play. This is not a play. We're reading, not speaking. I'm not trying to be a dick (sorry if I'm coming off as one) but I don't want this to get confusing and the Ferdinand royal family will be important, since they rule Talbor. </div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 36
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Ogre
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Concordius

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> Heoron stands two inches over six feet with a trim frame thanks to his orc lineage. His skin is a slightly darker grey-blue color than what is average for his race. His sharp eyes stand out from his skin, blazing as a yellow-orange color with hints of black here and there. His silver-colored hair hangs down to barely brush the tops of his shoulders, and he will at times tie it back in a horsetail or braid it to make it more manageable. Heoron has very pointed and angular features with high cheekbones and a long, pointed chin.
<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Heron’s <a href=""http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff9/nacron/mages-11_zps3dfda6e0.jpg"">outer robes</a> are made of a thick yet soft silk-like material dyed a dark grey color with gold trim. Beneath his robes, he wears <a href=""http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff9/nacron/b033691ea02c843facea96f4e55588a3_zps92e51b28.jpg"">armor</a> made from a light leather with thin and durable metal shoulder guards. His cloak is made of the same material of his robes and is dyed the same dark grey color; the cloak also has a face mask on the neck that Heron can put up to cover his face from the bridge of his nose down.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> On the surface, Heoron appears to be a calm and almost unemotional man. If one could see the inner workings of his mine, however, they would know his mind is a constant buzz, keeping his emotions in check so he can better call upon these emotions at a later time to utilize his magic more effectively. Because of this, Heoron also seems cold and distant to anyone around him. When he does speak to others, his words are laced with arrogance and condescension thick enough to slice with a knife. The ability to keep his emotions in check makes him an even-tempered person, leading to him being a calm and collected individual in most situations. Of course, this does not completely excuse him from the pull of emotions at times; it only means he is much better at controlling his emotions than most people.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Heoron’s main hobby is reading the journal left behind by his surrogate father and any other book he can get ahold of. He also spends his time studying the history of the different kingdoms and attempting to track down any information he can about his parents. It’s his thirst for any knowledge about his parents that drives him.
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Heoron has become skilled in Dark Magic, focusing more on the illusion aspects. Because of his magical abilities, Heoron is able to keep his emotions in check most of the time, separate and identify them and then draw upon them at a later date to power his magic, and in turn because of his ability to keep his emotions in check Heoron is able to remain calm in most situations others would panic during and think his way out if possible. He is also light footed and can walk with little to no noise, using his magic to mask his presence and blend into the shadows in combination with this skill in order to sneak his way through the world. Years of study have made Heoron into a knowledgeable historian and an expert on what is known about Cyclops culture and history. The obsession with his parents and hunting any lead he could find about them has made Heoron into a formidable tracker and detective of sorts; he is able to gather quite a bit of clues on someone and then track them down quickly based on what he gathers about them. This in turn has led to him taking many jobs as either a Bounty Hunter or an Assassin.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Heoron was born to a male elf named Artuous and a female orc named Gretsia, but Heoron remembers nothing about them as they died when he was barely two years old. When they died, Heoron was taken in by a human named Wilem; he raised Heoron as best as he could. When Heoron was eight, Wilem began teaching him Dark Magic. Wilem lived in a small cabin in the forest and chose to train his adopted son here to prevent him from causing any damage to others or the nearby village since he could not yet control his magic with his emotions being so erratic as such a young age. 

In the forests of his homeland, Heoron once came across the Will-o-Wisps one night. Being a child of barely eight, Heoron ran at the glowing orbs of blue fire, sending most of the orbs scattering into the night, but there was one that did not scatter at the sight of the boy. The Will-o-Wisp was strange, it spoke to the child and had a name. This strangeness in the magical being led to the two becoming friends and companions.

Because he did not have a strong hold of his emotions at first, Heoron came very near to dying and losing his magic permanently when he lost control in a fit of rage, injuring Wilem in the process. This episode happened when he was ten, and after it occurred Heoron refused to use magic after he saw what he had done to Wilem when he lost control. The two were training on a cliffside, Wilem thinking the sight and sound of the ocean would keep the boy calm, but for some reason the child couldn’t shake the thought of his parents that day and flew into a fit of rage and sorrow at their passing, sending a violent torrent of energy all around, burning Wilem badly enough to scar and wound but not fatally. After a year of coaxing after the accident, Wilem finally convinced Heoron to take up learning magic again.

The child, now age eleven, took to learning how to master his emotions with a new zeal, pouring over texts and hanging on to Wilem’s every word. Heoron trained under his surrogate father for twenty years after he began anew. In learning Dark Magic, Heoron was first taught how to control and identify his emotions to control his magic and then he began learning how to turn his emotions into magical energy. Throughout these twenty years, Wilem also taught Heoron how to fight with a short sword and a dagger.

All the while through his training, Heoron couldn’t shake the nagging feeling at the back of his head to learn more about his parents, so when he was twenty-five, Wilem promised to help Heoron track down any information he could on his parents. Because of his promise, Wilem was forced to train Heoron on the move as the two tracked down any leads they could find about the couple. Six years of searching leads down, and the only thing Heoron found out about his parents was that the two used to be treasure hunters. Once his training was over, Heoron decided to undertake the search on his own.

Four years into his own searching, Heoron managed to dig up the names of the treasure hunting group his parents were part of in an old manuscript for one of their hunts. Heoron went back to Wilem with the names and pleaded with him to help by searching out one of the names while Heoron searched for the other to expand their possibilities of finding something out. Heoron tracked down the name he took to Dorakis, but the person belonging to the name was long dead, having died a few years before his parents had. He managed to get ahold of the Dorak’s old journal and poured over it, decrypting it for about a year before he heard any news from Wilem. Unfortunately, Wilem had died in his pursuit of the name, but had managed to leave everything he had found to Heoron. After decrypting the Dorak’s journal, Heoron used them and Wilem’s own notes to learn anything he could about the Saurian that was the last living member of the treasure hunting team. His main goal now is to track down this Saurian in hopes of learning about his parents.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> |Name of person|one-word general impression | relationship to said person |Thoughts on the character|

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-u"">Staff:</span> Heoron uses his wooden staff to channel his magic. The staff itself comes to Heron’s shoulder and is made of an old dark wood. The staff looks as though it is made of multiple thick branches twisting around one another, ending with the top sloping up in two places like small wooden waves; this opening is usually occupied by Ithenul, making the staff look like it has a blue orb floating between the two small wooden slopes.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Magic:</span> Heoron uses Dark Magic in combat, focusing more on the illusionary skills within this field of magic.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Short sword:</span> Heoron keeps a short sword made of steel strapped to his waist at all times.</li><li><span class=""bb-u"">Dagger:</span> Heoron also carries a serrated silver dagger hidden away in a sheath built into the back of his left boot.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> In a fight, Heoron is most skilled in close quarters, using his illusion magic to distract and confuse his enemies and then closing in to dispatch them. He is also skilled in the other aspects of Dark Magic. Despite his race’s natural slowness Heoron is able to dodge around and parry enemy blows, the former aided from his illusion magic. Heoron is also able to use his staff to block attacks. His main advantage comes from ambush attacks, using his magic to hide his presence and then getting the drop on his enemies.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Heron’s poor eyesight prevents him from engaging in any long range combat and forces him to get close to his enemies in a fight. In a straight fight, Heoron, while not completely useless, will not last too long before he needs to flee.
<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Heoron’s sole companion is his familiar, a Will-o-Wisp called Ithenul. He also owns a dark chestnut-colored horse, but he does not count it as a companion since he cannot have conversations with the animal.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Polaris</div></div></div>"

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Adelaide"" type=""button"">Adelaide [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span>Adelaide del Monte
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>29
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female 
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Mountain Elf
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of origin:</span> Southern Nepharie 

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Appearance:</span> Adelaide's the first to acknowledge that she'll be the last of Senator del Monte's brood to marry. An older sister with mother's hazel eyes; Asta had legs that never seem to end, full lips that would demand the gaze of even the meekest of men and beautiful, flowing blonde hair. Then there's Ciara, two years younger and ten years shorter but with the bust of someone twice her age! Adelaide never could figure out how such a thin waist could support knockers that size and for every gaze that Asta's lips caught you could guarantee Ciara would get ten more. A cute, rounded little nose rested between the most beaming smile and a set of bright, inviting blue eyes that were always wide open and gave Ciara a look of unparalleled innocence. Then there was Adelaide...
Adelaide; awkwardly in the middle. Not the tallest and not the shortest she seemed to be the only one of the three del Monte girl's to inherit more of her father's ordinary genes. Dark, solid brown eyes and a rounded, plain face with the exception of a few unevenly dispersed freckles. Adelaide thought she looked more like Ciara than Asta but never seemed to get the same attention as her younger sibling. Maybe it was because where Ciara's mass was in all the right places Adelaide's was in all the worst - a thick neck, burly shoulders and wide hips spawning large thighs and equally as impressive calves often left Adelaide feeling grateful for at least being thin at the waist and even then if she'd sit around for a week even that <span class=""bb-i"">hourglass figure</span> (or so she consoled herself) would begin to fade. Adelaide was never as keen to spend hours getting her hair cut and styled as her sisters and often just let her hair grow and grow regularly finding new ways to fashion the chestnut brown locks into something grandiose and feminine.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> When going to important events and gatherings Adelaide wears a varying assortment of dresses and gowns in a multitude of colours. For even though she resents having her hair done and beauty therapy she must confess that she enjoys getting all dressed up and putting on some jewels for the right occasion. Adelaide isn't too afraid of showing a little skin either - when she's out running errands around the mountains she trades a rather sensible, formal style for that of a flamboyant, very informal style that displays a wild side neither of her sisters possess. A beautiful, flowing one-piece swapped out for a leopard-skin skirt with the sides torn for mobility, her top half is always well protected with a well-fitted, dragonscale cuirass, dark maroon in colour and interwoven with tanned, tough leather of a lightly tanned colour. The cuirass was a gift from a wealthy politician over in the tropics, Adelaide's father told her that the man expressed a desire to marry her even though they've never met and promptly gave the man her measurements, after-all dragonscale was hard to acquire and Pierro del Monte never looked a gift horse in the mouth. The guy even refuses to leave his name on the gifts he sends, which Adelaide could never figure out - after all, she couldn't fall in love with a question mark. Adelaide also wears various fur-lined vambraces, boots and gloves depending on what she feels like on the day.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Adelaide's very grounded considering she's always had anything she's ever wanted on a silver spoon. She enjoys adventure and jumps at the chance to run errands for her father, whom she idolises, despite him oft being reluctant to let her go - truth be told these are the only times she doesn't have to act like a <span class=""bb-i"">proper lady</span>. Her down-to-earth attitude, unlimited patience and a willingness to learn has lead to her being well liked and respected amongst peers and teachers alike. 
That's not to say, however, that she's academically gifted (that was always Asta's forte), in fact she never could understand words, numbers or magic very well. While other students would excel at performing fabulous examples of magic Adelaide would protest that if she wanted to make the rocks fly she'd pick 'em up and throw 'em. Even though Adelaide was hopeless at performing magic growing up, like most elves she's fascinated with nature and always takes the time to respect and care for whatever environment she finds herself in.
Growing up with two sisters Adelaide can sometimes have a sharp tongue and doesn't fully understand the possible consequences of nattering about lords and ladies, kings and queens or anything else she finds remotely interesting to talk about. She doesn't like to be alone and regularly looks for reasons to be around people.
Despite not being noticeably good at anything Adelaide feels as though she was meant for something bigger than just an ordinary life living in the mountains, marrying a senator and then playing happy for the world to see.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> Adelaide enjoys nothing more than being out in nature and for each thing she didn't know about magic she could teach you two about her environment - mainly the mountains. When the giant ramp Castle Alma is sealed tight it can begin to feel like a cold, lonely place (especially since Ciara's been spending all of her time studying at Stormfront, just like Asta did and Adelaide rarely sees her older sister anymore). When Adelaide feels sad she enjoys finding old books in the library and reading through them - even though the books could sometimes be confusing to her they were always sure to have illustrious and grand pictures; of animals, beasts, trees, the world. Adelaide remembers the ramp being up for two whole months one time during a particularly fierce sandstorm, she got a lot of reading done in that time and when the storm eased up she could be free once again.
Free meant being outside - running and climbing across the mountains, slipping down the mudslides, swinging and leaping across crevices. Outside is the only time Adelaide ever truly feels herself and she's always ecstatically excited when she knows she gets to go out next. She enjoys tending to animals of any sort and tries her best to keep all the plants in her garden in tip-top condition (yes, father gave his daughter a garden).

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Years of climbing around the mountains has lead to Adelaide being very fit and quite agile considering her almost frumpy frame (kinda like that sexy bitch from the croods). Adelaide's best talent appears to be keeping the animals happy - Volak refuses to get fed by anyone other than her and Pierro. During her ""studying"" at the Grand Tower Adelaide was toughened up a little bit and even got around to trying her hand at combat with some of the younger boys, needless to say she wasn't very good at it. She never completed her time there and eventually went back to the comfort of castle Alma complaining that she didn't feel ready to go out into the world on her own. Her intelligence seems to be at a slightly below average.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Adelaide grew up behind the great stone walls of Castel Alma, a cliff dwelling thats walls were human-built using thousands of hardy, orange rocks that were gathered from miles around. The structure lay discretely on the landscape and was almost invisible to the eye during even the lightest of sandstorms, unless the humongous flat stone that passed as a ramp was lowered but the only entrance to the castle was ALWAYS closed in a storm. The castle is between the centre of Southern Nepharie and the bay of clams, rumour has it that it was the del Monte's ancestors that were responsible for exotic goods of lobster, spices, oysters and mostly; pineapples, flooding into the more populated regions of Tithe and considering the vast wealth of the family lots say that the islanders were exploited by the Del Monte's but that was then and this is now and Pierro's accepted by the local communities of both Nepharie and the Tropics.
Adelaide didn't get accepted to study at Isaiah Stormfront's castle like her sisters, and she was sure Ciara only got invited because Isaiah took a personal liking to Asta, instead she spent a few years trying her hardest to do magic but after a few years found that nobody there understood her and promptly returned home. Other than that the biggest adventure she's been on is a trip to the tropics when she was much younger and even that, one of the few memories she has of her family being together as five, was beginning to fade.
For Adelaide the story begins here...

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Father:</span> Senator Pierro del Monte - Ruler of Castle Alma and Ambassador of peoples within and around its walls - Nothing about Pierro would strike out as making him different from any other senator: Ambitious, proud and servile are just a few words that have been thrown around the courtroom when describing him. Constantly striving to increase his position in the empire he doesn't spend much time with his family, though when he does he appears to be a kind and caring man. Pierro is also capable of taming wild creatures and has an unmatched affinity for the mountains, through his year's he's attempted to tame many beasts with various success - the two that stuck around are 'Volak'; a mangy looking giant vulture with a bad attitude if left unchecked and 'Archibald'; an overweight desert pig (I was thinking desert pigs could be like boars but without the tusks if that could be a thing) who has a young and vigorous spirit despite his weight problem.
<span class=""bb-b"">Mother:</span> Sibelle del Monte - Adelaide's mother is also ambitious, although unlike the rather indecisive, sometimes rash, sometimes collected attitude displayed by her father Sibelle is always politically calculating, perceptive and insightful. She loves her husband and children and would do anything to protect them. She used to be a powerful Mage but vowed never to do magic again after an accident she chooses not to speak of, truth be told she knows that she's lost a lot of her mojo. She doesn't feel it necessary to spend time relearning what she once knew now that she's happy with where her life is.
<span class=""bb-b"">Older Sister:</span> Asta del Monte - A powerful Mage who has decided to continue learning from old books in the academy of Ostracus after completing her studies at Stormfront castle. She specialises in air magic and is particularly interested in spells of concealment using a combination of mists and smokes. 
Younger sister: Ciara del Monte - A promising Mage who is still midway through her studies at Stormfront. She is bubbly, playful, flirty and fascinated with earth magic.
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span> Same as above. Adelaide is Father's favorite, Mother's least favorite (putting it bluntly) and gets along equally as well with both of her sisters although she's spent more time growing up with Ciara (who's 2 years younger) than Asta (about 30 years older).

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> being rich? 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> If you haven't put the dots together yet you're not too far away from Adelaide's mindset...
With her mother's renown raw magical talent that we know has passed to Adelaide's sisters and her father's fondness of all things living, particularly animals, she has the POTENTIAL to be quite a powerful beast tamer. Quite powerful indeed.

1) What in the name of Brassica Prime is an orange squirrel? Also, I'm not a huge fan of that part of her attire in general. It makes me think of a sexualized barbarian in an MMO, which is really not what I want to think about when it comes to this rp. If you want her to have less...stuffy, attire, I'd look up medieval working class clothing and go off of that. 

2) I should have specified more with Stormfront Castle; Stormfront Castle is not an official magic school like the Temple, the Grand Tower, or the Academy. Stormfront Castle is the home of a family of Fairfolk seers, and it also just so happens that every ten years or so Isaiah Stormfront, the patriarch of the Stormfront family, allows five to ten students to come and train under him (since he's the most powerful wizard, like, ever). If you want to have the del Monte daughters have gone to magic school, I would suggest having Adelaide go to the Grand Tower and having Asta and Clara be apprentices at Stormfront (if they were really super intellectually gifted). 

3) If their name's del Monte, then they'd better be involved in the pineapple trade. :P (this isn't actually a critique)

Walking around wearing armor would absolutely suck. Armor is heavy and sweaty and you don't even wanna KNOW the kind of chaffing you'll get. If you insist on having her wear armor, she should wear leather or something, not plate mail.

So long as her clothes don't burn off (""Actually, so long as they do""-Apollos) that should be fine. You might wanna look up slightly more period dress designs, though, as a shoulderless dress might have been seen back then as somewhat sluttish (and I don't think that's what you're going for).

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Wizzlebee de LaShtüp
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 160
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Gnome
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Ostracus
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> At a daunting and considerable 3'01”, LaShtüp is something of an out-of-the-ordinary gnome, if only for a few more reasons than being an inch above the average height. Perhaps in his youth he bore an rosy-cheeked smile with a fine complexion, but as he stands today, he looks too worn down to manage more than a stroll through the woods. Not that this is something he lend on, as even for his age, is surprisingly spry and energetic, but nothing like he was back when he was a young'n. His face has garnered wrinkles and age has pronounced his laugh lines. His large trademark nose, a distinguished feature among gnomes aside from its beak-like curvature, has done little in the ways of following his shriveling skin and receding hairline, allowing it to stick out from his face as his most noticeable feature. One of the biggest peculiarities howe'er, lies in his resemblance to humans. Have no doubt that he is a proud gnome, but replacing a gnome's childlike features is a bolder, and more pronounced face. 

In addition, unlike most gnomes as well, LaShtüp's skin color lacks as much pigment that contributes to the gnomes' copper skin. His own skin is quite pale in comparison, but manages a similar hue if nothing else. If there is one thing that LaShtüp shares, it is his slicked back widow-peaked black hair. Then again, that could just be dye, because there is nary a gray hair to be found on top his head. As you would expect, he is not very strong, even by gnome standards. He weighs about 65 lbs soaking wet, and is a feeble old gnome reading books as large as a human's memo pad after all. Despite his kind usually have a short and stocky build, his limbs are pretty thin. There is not a tremendous amount of meat or muscle that sits between his skin and bone, but he has a gut that many a hearty gnome would be proud of. In this respect, he isn't as thin and weak as he could be. Given how many years he's pushing, he considers himself pretty lucky. LaShtüp has long, brittle fingernails that has turned black through a particular use of magic, but nobody would ever know, because they've been painted mint green.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> Our favorite gnome dresses to impress. As a first layer, black silk vestments adorn his body, and over that, a black vest. This vest has been trimmed with gold leaf and three brass studs are on either side of his color. Three large buttons go down the center of the vest. Over this, he wears what appears to be a sage green toga, where the sinus that drapes over his left shoulder is held together by golf-leaf coated brass clasp. This particular article of clothing is what indicates him as his city's alchemist, so that he is not mistaken for any priest or sorcerer, but it does not detract from his appearance of a noble. Were it not for his short stature as a gnome in a human society, there'd be no telling what he could get away with.

He has a few accessories on his person. Like the aforementioned painted fingernails. He wears a pair of  black formal slippers, with white cotton socks. While they ease right on and off of his feet, they are fairly secure around them and is difficult for them to fall off by accident. However, it is not uncommon for him to relax with his feet free, and then, there you would find that his toenails are painted a similar color to that of his fingernails! And unlike his fingernails, appeared to be kept in good shape. He has a number of rings, many of which contain secret compartments for certain herbs or powders for emergency alchemical improvisation. He has one gold loop earing on both his ears.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> The eccentricity of gnomes is not lost on LaShtüp – that is to say, he is no exception to that rule. He, during the early years of his life, had shared the race-wide suspicion that had made up a great deal of their quirkiness, but as the years had gone by, that attitude tempered. He was already unlike many gnomes as he stood, and he was aware of the global view of gnomes and this had brought forth some embarrassment. This has influenced his perception of other races a little bit as he came to realize that it was the gnomes who were considered to be the absurd, different major race. This had half to do with luring him out from his homeland and to travel through the major kingdoms, eventually stopping at Nepharie, the largest kingdom, as it had exposed him to more of the world's culture than any other place, and where he got to meet the most people from all over. Since moving in, he's been regarded as generous, insightful and fun. At heart, he is a very dedicated and studious individual that doesn't stop when he sets his mind to a task.

As a gnome magi and alchemist, and all of his years of experience, there is no denying Wizzlebee's brilliance and creativity. As far as others are concerned, his most notable skill is his practice on the alchemy bench, where he develops some of the most refined potions a man has ever seen. However, his eccentric personality can distract others from that aspect of him. He is ridiculously cheerful, almost to naïve extremes. His mind-numbing optimism makes him appear almost oblivious to the world around him and to all of the issues plaguing the world or his own situation. He comes across as a sensitive old gnome whose feelings can be easily crushed if taken the approach of pure and unadulterated evil, but otherwise, playground-esque meanness would simple inspire him to coddle you.

Further undermining his actual intelligence is his apparent inability to grasp the bartering system in Nepharie. It doesn't help that there are different languages and cultures for every race that passes through, but the dominate bartering system was such an extreme learning curve for LaShtüp compared to how it was back home at Ostracus. He is, what has to be, the worst barter in the kingdom and has screwed himself out of so many deals without even knowing. His relationship with the locals is strange as well, as they don't seem entirely aware of the methods of gnomish flirting. Especially among the humans, specifically the men, they're not quite sure how to respond to an old gnomish man whose going on and on about how they should compare their wardrobes. The day and age of this land isn't entirely receptive to his sexuality just yet.

There does seem to be something else about the gnome, though, that sets him off from the others. An abnormality even among gnomish eccentricity. He proclaims an ethical and moral code, but there is almost something there to suggest that he doesn't entirely mean it. It could be possible that he does, and that he simply doesn't take matters of injustice or controversy very seriously, but there is an air of secrecy to him. It is something difficult to pick up, but it is there. Where he gets his ingredients from, what ingredients he actually uses, where he got his training, and how good at magic he is. He never gives a direct answer, and he seems to talk as though he knows something you don't. At his worst, LaShtüp can be narrow-minded and selfish.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> As an alchemist, botany is a no-brainer. Studying plants and flowers and their alchemical properties has always been an interest. Just figuring out how life <span class=""bb-i"">works</span>. The study of fungi and their spores is also a topic of interest. Fashion and jewelry are staples for a luxurious life, and he knits in his spare time, although he isn't any good at it. However, here we get into dubious matters where the ethics become taboo. LaShtüp also possesses an interest in death and undeath. The inspection of corpses and fresh cadavers are made, inspiring him to consider the possibility of becoming a mortician, but figured his current position to be a better guise for his suspicious practices.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> An exceptional alchemist, though he sells only potions and non-lethal poisons, there is just a few recipes outside his reach. Though his skill in alchemy is not to be ignored, the power of his potions also lends credit to the ingredients he uses, often harvested from the dead in secrecy. His willingness to tread where others dare not even speak of gives him an edge in the potency of his product, as well as his flexible capability. He is also good at braiding hair. He can usually sense the motives of others, but very rarely applies the knowledge he gains to his advantage.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> LaShtüp must have been born under an odd star or something, to have differed so from his cousins. An only child among gnome households was an absurd circumstance, and to be the only child of a Ostracian noble house would be to doom him to a life of upholding standards and expectations. As would be predicted, his nose was pushed to the grindstone in regards to his formal education. The goal, as it were, would be to direct LaShtüp to the head of house and to wed a gnome gal and continue the bloodline. The actual reasoning for pressing such a matter is to be the LaShtüps' trump card. The house itself was Machiavellian, unscrupulous. They also held a close relationship to the royalty. Enhancing Wizzlebee's education to prodigious levels would allow him the skill and know-how to create awe-inspiring potions that would make history. Revolutionizing the alchemy scene would lend credit to the family and their newfound favor would put them next in line to the royal family. The next step was to stage a disaster.

Hiring mercenaries, the next part of the family plan was to have the royal family assassinated and pin it on the Nepharian military. His human-looking face would perhaps allow him to make more effective diplomacy and ally agreements with Talbor. This in turn would appoint the LaShtüp family as the new ruling bloodline and Wizzlebee would have been appointed the new royalty, and Talbor having Ostracus' back when Nepharie retaliated. Wizzlebee himself never found out about this plan, but the pressure of all the burdens and expectations placed upon him became too much and he escaped Ostracus at age 60 before ever performing such alchemical feats. As a result, the Ostracian monarchy expatriated Wizzlebee and renounced his citizenship. Without a home to go back to, Ostracus never bore witness to his future feats of alchemy and his family never got to hire the assassination that would bring the LaShtüp house to be the ruling bloodline. Never to return, and the house never bearing another child, the LaShtüp house had died off, ending a thousand years of history. Talbor never went into war with Nepharie.

Wizzlebee's path was unclear. He decided it was best for him to follow the road into Nepharie and settle the Nepharian and Ostracian rivalry the best as he could, and to become a respected member of their society. There he could perhaps set up shop in alchemy and help its poor. Over his black and gold clothing he wore a sage green toga to exemplify his new beginnings as an artisan, or skilled labor, but kept his black and gold vestments as an indication of his noble roots, since history was something that should be embraced. Irregardless, the fact stood that nobody in Nepharie appeared to understand the color coded indicators of his old status and simply took him for a noble by the way he had dressed so nicely, which in itself was erroneous and became problematic when people were asking him for lower taxes.

His first experiences in Nepharie was complicated in several other regards, such as the human bartering system that was dominant in the city. For some reason, Wizzlebee just could not wrap his mind around it and ended up giving high-grade potions and elixirs for nearly free, from a few copper pieces, to a couple silver pieces, and sometimes he completely drove away customers by demanding too much. Much to his chagrin, his lack of awareness when it came to barter was taken advantage of for a period of time before a local bill was passed that kept him, and merchants and artisans like him, from being taken advantage of to such a degree. This didn't stop everyone though. Even to this day, he still struggles with the trade, but he has gotten better with it than he was before.

His skill was often credited in making potions, and that much is true to be sure, but there was a lot more behind the scenes than his patrons realized. The unscrupulous house in which he was raised did a lot in order to make sure his potions were of the highest quality. Refined. Devoid of impurities. This is, of course, nearly impossible, but he has reached a small percentage of impurities in his potions. Skill was important, but so were the ingredients – and the trick was to use life around one to create a truly wondrous elixir. He was brought up without the moral constraints of “respecting the dead”. He took body parts from leftover cadavers and corpses, received deliveries from agents who had gone into the morgue and harvested body parts. The quality of potions that was occur after was astonishing, thus leading his interest in the nature of the dead, and alchemical properties of the organs of mortal creatures. A heart was ideal if one wanted to create an exceptional healing elixir.

He got to staying in that city for quite a while built up his own reputation as that “skilled but quirky alchemist down the alley”, managing to hide that taboo secret to alchemy of his from the locals when he learned that they respected their dead, and that grave-robbing was punishable by execution. A couple years in, and somewhere between 90 and 100 years of age, he began practicing his magic some more. Some time during that ten years, he made a raw trade with some shady looking fellow for a couple of valuable potions. The item he received was an old tome, as the binding itself was starting to come apart and the pages were turning green with mildew. He was assured that the book was worth the price, and Wizzlebee naïvely believed him. What he discovered in the book was nearly illegible, a language he had never seen before. During that ten years, he spent countless hours collecting other books and tomes from other cultures filled with different language, trying to cross-reference the grammar. As he began to learn, the old tome he had traded with appeared to be the root to many of these different languages such as human english, orcish, elvish, but did not include his own gnomish tongue. He came to identify a word that helped to explain a lot of the tome's origins: Fairfolk.

The Fairfolk were not unheard of, and they certainly exist in this day and age, but a book of such age and of such origin was absurd. An unfamiliar word came out of a phrase, “complex element”, appearing to reference to the pre-existing four as the prerequisites for this element's mastery. An unfamiliar phrase: aether, or the “quintessence”. It was described as the element that had filled life and the surrounding universe. It sounded queer to even the strange little gnome, but it was something he had to at least try. His practice in light magic was already exceptional, he himself already powerful, but his abilities fell short of mastery. Wizzlebee devoted much of his magical practice to studying this supposed fifth element, despite his short comings in the other elements. As the tome predicted, studying the nature of life without fully understanding its container would bear to be fruitless. This did not trouble Wizzlebee one bit though. He sought to break the boundaries of the container, or at least, see through aether's nature without its container being the defining or influential aspects of his study. He felt he knew enough about the other elements to at least supplement his understanding of quintessence.

Thinking outside the box, like gnomes are wont to do, Wizzlebee realized he had resources in which he could study this more directly: the magical effects of potions. Half of it was science, of course, but it contained magical properties that, as Wizzlebee realized, did not actually connect with earth, fire, air or water, or even the emotion-based power that dark magic stemmed from. It affected life directly, thus, responded to aether. Using rats and guinea pigs, he observed the magical effects that took place. Eventually, whether through hallucination by repetitiveness and exhaustion, or getting high off the created fumes (really, it was difficult to tell), the gnome could practically see the effects being taken place and the energy that affected his test subjects. Controlling invisible energy is exceptionally difficult, this presumably goes without saying. The old book mentions only a few wizards capable of controlling aether, even fewer mastering the element. The fact that this gnome, who had hardly considered himself a master in anything, was able to touch upon this element, it brought great pride to him... but never did he share this knowledge with anyone. He doubted most people would be able to begin to understand it, but he did acknowledge the potential power the magic of aether. Letting it get into the wrong hands would be disastrous.

The first aether spell he had ever performed was leading the life forces through his body, letting it pass through him in waves with each breath, then letting it occupy his mind – the resulting effect would be the ethereal glowing of his eyes, and through his eyes, Wizzlebee could <span class=""bb-i"">see</span> the aether. Like wisps filling and encapsulating every life-form, keeping everything bound together. It was like seeing what made up a person's or creature's spirit. And speaking of spirits, this spell was what led to his first discovery of them. However, as it stood, communication was impossible until Wizzlebee later learned how to “read” the aether, as the energy fluctuated according to expression and behavior.

Talking to spirits had contributed greatly to his interest of the dead, and he sought to learn much from the nature of death from these spirits, as well as history. As he took his first steps into aether magics, it inspired him to take his interest in death to the next level. We're now talking about the next decade or so, 110-120 years old, so he's about middle aged and has seen his fair share of experiences. Having stepped into the realm of aether magic and his own power of enchantment, death became to appear as a subjective topic. Using his enchantment powers to create golems, vessels, and using the littlest amount of aether to supplement his power, Wizzlebee has been able to – wait for it – <span class=""bb-i"">raise the dead.</span> Granted, without a soul, this was mindless undead. A corpse that is simply being animated and controlled by the puppeteer's will. His power alone wouldn't work on flesh, but with aether, necromancy, which was once thought impossible, became the gnome's reality. His interest in death and undeath was bolstered, and so he sought to look into aether magic some more. Less to control the world around him, but to delve further into the forgotten taboo art of necromancy.

The following thirty years has been quite a roller coaster. It was difficult hiding his experiments and rituals, his necromantic art. Though risky, it was found the best location was in the cellar beneath his alchemy shop, where he was best able to control who goes in and out. Recycling and reusing the bodies became the regular. Animating the dead also made it easier to harvest choice cuts and organs from the cadavers. The basement was filled with sage and lavender to hide the smell. At 150 years of age, Wizzlebee came into contact with a spirit that claimed to have been a noble defender of the public, and wanted to come back to enrich and impart his knowledge of the history of those of this day, and to use his power to aid those in need, and the little gnome fell for it hook, line, and sinker. He agreed to use the spirit's aether to animate a corpse. This was, of course, his first time doing. In retrospect, using a skeleton wasn't the best idea, since then the defender couldn't go out and impart his wisdom unto others. Not that it mattered; as it turned out, the spirit had lied. The spirit actually had belonged to his father, and Wizzlebee had gone and used his spirit to ensoul a skeleton.

Bartleby de LaShtüp also happened to be the grand master of the LaShtüp house's plot to becoming the new royal house. Of course, now being a live skeleton, Bartleby was unable to go anywhere or do anything by himself without risking getting caught. Despite his unfathomable plotting and unruly behavior, Bartleby was indeed proud of his son's accomplishments. Why, he might have not yet made a miracle potion, but he <span class=""bb-i"">raised the dead</span> for goodness sake. That has to count for something.

The past ten years have proceeded little. He raised the bar on his alchemy as he learned how to get access to more “special ingredients”, and he became more attuned to aether, though nothing close to mastery. He came into contact with a young minotaur. A warrior by heritage, a thinker by heart, and heard his story of his affliction. Wizzlebee intends to devote the rest of his remaining life to coming up with a cure for this debilitating  ailment, but he worries that his years are beginning to run short. At 160 years of life, a gnome doesn't have much left to go on. Even if this minotaur does not survive that long, the cure could at least be made for future sufferers of this magical poison. His father, Bartleby, on the other hand, has accepted his condition and grew quite accustomed to being an undead skeleton. He often makes fun of Wizzlebee and the predicaments he finds himself in, and takes every opportunity to find a bone or skeleton pun. Hey, you gotta amuse yourself somehow when you're spending eternity in unlife.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span>
Father, Bartleby de LaShtüp – 155 <span class=""bb-i"">(deceased)</span><span class=""bb-b"">(undead)</span>
Mother, Glenna de LaShtüp – 172 <span class=""bb-i"">(deceased)</span>   
Uncle, Bao de LaRouge – 112 <span class=""bb-i"">(murdered)</span>
Cousin, Trish de LaRouge – 54 <span class=""bb-i"">(murdered)</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Relationships:</span>
| <span class=""bb-b"">Bartleby de LaShtüp</span>| <span class=""bb-b"">Reconciling</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Father</span> | <span class=""bb-i"">“As an undead skeleton, pappy doesn't have much to lose. He's a vulgar old man and doesn't hold back on his snark. We've been working out our differences, though. He still holds a grudge about how I brought him back as a</span> human <span class=""bb-i"">skeleton”.</span> |

| <span class=""bb-b"">Calder, the Minotaur</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Concerned</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Once-customer</span> | <span class=""bb-i"">“I've only dealt business with him before, but I did learn of his condition. Quite odd, really, yes. A weird magic infected him, I am still looking into it. I will probably be looking at it until I die, but I might as well try. I hope I can find a cure before, uh... the worst happens.”</span> |

| <span class=""bb-b"">Tooth-In-The-Sea</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Good</span> | <span class=""bb-b"">Part time supplier</span> | <span class=""bb-i"">“A little odd, but, shucks, I suppose I'm not in any position to talk about that. Sweet lizard sells me ingredients for my alchemy! Sometimes I get rare stock from him too. Always has something interesting in store for me. He gives me good prices for them... I think...”</span> |

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaponry:</span> Large weapon: A willow wood staff; Medium weapon: light magic, specializing in gnomish enchantment and aether; Small weapon: blowgun with needles, oft coated in a home-brewed concoction.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Wizzlebee, in almost all circumstances, would avoid combat at any cost. He's a pacifist as heart, you see. If combat cannot be avoided, he'd more like shift the responsibility onto another while he fled for his life. Which in itself is hard for an elderly gnome to do. If there is no one around, then he could raise one or two undead from the ground and use them to cover his escape. Mindless undead will often fall over after enough distance between them and their conjurer has been made. Ensouled undead are considered intelligent undead and will remain as long their conjurer remains alive or if their body stays intact. 

Despite Wizzlebee's reluctance to fight, if he really applied himself, the little old gnome would be an awe-inspiring adversary when you consider that his potions are top of the line, and remember that, despite his clumsy appearance, he is also an outstanding wizard. Even without aether, he holds a degree of control over the elements that would at least put other prodigy wizards at odds with his own skill. And when you consider his penchant for aether, that alone gives him an edge since others have likely never heard of the lost fifth element. He applies this element in indirect methods, but assuming he gives it a shot, he could probably perform a good deal of damage using it as an offensive ability.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> As an eldery little gnome, he doesn't have much physical prowess going for him. Nor can he run with ease. He'd rather avoid fighting if he can help it, and while he is powerful in his own right, he isn't actually a master in any field. He is also allergic to eggs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Bartleby de LaShtüp, a bitter and pun-making skeleton. Also happens to be Wizzlebee's father.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> Wizzlebee is a homosexual.</div></div></div>"

[b]Age:[/b] 68 (though she claims to be and looks like 30-31) 
[b]Gender:[/b] female 
[b]Species:[/b] Fairy of the Stormfront Clan 
[b]Kingdom of Origin:[/b] Concordius 

[b]Physical appearance:[/b] Asher is a short, delicate-looking woman, standing at about 5’0” and weighing 70-ish lbs. She’s built very small and almost fragile-looking, with slender arms and legs and little muscle tone. Her build gives her an almost insect-like appearance, and her skin, which is a dull bluish-purple, supports this. She has long, spindly arms with small hands and thin, spider-like fingers. Her nails almost resemble claws, being dark in coloration and pointed. She has small, smooth feet and skinny legs which lead to slightly curvy hips and a somewhat scrawny midsection. Her breasts are not particularly impressive or pneumatic (to coin Aldous Huxley’s word), and if she exhales too deeply, her ribs show underneath her skin. She has modest, slightly bony shoulders and a long, slender neck. The most noticeable feature of Asher’s body, though, is her wings. Asher’s wings are butterfly-shaped, and are trimmed in black with splashes of blue, purple, and silver across them. When light shines through Asher’s wings, it is filtered like light through a prism. The wings are fairly large and can limitedly fold up against Asher’s back, making them more manageable to deal with when, say, wearing clothing. 

Asher’s head is generally heart-shaped, with an angular chin and high cheekbones. She’s rather attractive in the facial area, with a small, smooth nose and almond-shaped violet eyes which seem to glow in low light. She has thin eyebrows and full eyelashes that look like they could make tornadoes if she batted them hard enough. Her face is framed neatly by black hair which comes down to the small of her back when kept down. Asher, however, doesn’t like her hair blowing all willy-nilly, so she tends to wear her hair in a French braid. Her ears are small and lay against her head. One ear is tucked under her hair usually. 

Asher stands properly, with perfect posture and a slightly upturned head, something she took away from years of etiquette lessons. She steps carefully and gracefully, putting one foot before the other, and seldom ever trips. She speaks with a low and somewhat humble voice that has a very slight English accent. 

[b]Attire:[/b] WARNING: I do not know anything about even modern women’s clothing, so don’t expect me to know medieval clothing. Being the daughter of a wealthy nobleman, Asher dresses in a very posh and formal way. She wears a fancy royal blue dress trimmed in silver. [url=http://www.theknightshop.co.uk/catalog/images/120003-1.jpg] Because I have no idea how to even begin to describe this, here’s a picture. Just imagine this in royal blue with a silver trim.[/url] This dress has an opening in the back where her wings stick out (so she can, y’know, fly without being naked). Around her neck, Asher wears a silver necklace with a pendant of blue topaz on it, [url=http://www.kay.com/images/products/3727/372771903_MV_ZM.jpg]which looks like this.[/url] This pendant was given to her by her father, and has magical properties (which I will talk about later). Asher generally wears a pair of black lady janes on her feet, though while in Concordius she generally goes barefoot (because it’s considered respectful to remove one’s shoes in the presence of the Holy Land). Over her dress, Asher wears a black travelling cloak (when she’s travelling, that is). Asher wears a belt pouch on her right side which hold some little magical trinkets and such for making potions on the run. 

[b]Personality:[/b] Though she appears and stands like a noblewoman, Asher tends not to act much like one. She’s a very shy and humble girl, not particularly proud of her family’s illustrious and powerful progeny because she has seen the rottenness within. What Asher really wants more than anything else to just to be left alone. She feels uncomfortable in crowds when there isn’t someone she knows with her, and tends to try not to talk to people when the opportunity is present. This all stems from her general self-consciousness and socially-awkward nature. She nit-picks everything that she does, every movement of her body and every word she says, and when she messes up or says something foolish she grills herself for it. She is especially self-conscious about her physical appearance, especially her weight. Asher is very underweight for someone of her size, and this has been afflicted by her own hand; for years she attempted to starve herself to be as thin as others and on several occasions passed out from hunger. Her father eventually fixed this by brewing a potion to “cure” her anorexia, but she still thinks similarly, always wondering what she would look like if she flipped her braid over her left shoulder or her right one, or rested her hands on her hips as opposed to resting them across her chest. She seems to fidget a lot with such things, and rarely looks comfortable. 

Asher is very secretive and quiet. She grew up in a family full of dark secrets, which taught her to never divulge another person’s information. She very rarely talks about her past or customs of the terrible things she saw which made her want to leave a posh palace for the streets of Tithe. Keeping all of these secrets inside makes Asher feel somewhat strange and unworthy, as if she’s constantly dirty and is scraping grime off of her skin for it to keep coming back. 

Asher has some good qualities too, though. She’s incredibly polite, firstly, and generally tries to be nice to people if she does decide to talk to them (which is unlikely). She’s fairly compassionate as well, often sympathizing with other’s pain and giving fairly good advice. Asher is what the psychological world calls a “fixer”. She loves to bury herself in other people’s problems so she can ignore her own, and her abilities certainly help. Morally, Asher is somewhat grey and can often be rather indecisive. She generally tries to do the right thing, but her anger can get the best of her sometimes. Though Asher is introverted, those who she is friends with she knows exceptionally well, and tries to learn everything about. She’s the friend who remembers everyone’s birthday and the anniversary of every relationship without thinking much. 

[b]Hobbies/interests:[/b] Asher doesn’t really have a lot of free time, though she likes to read. She used to love playing piano when she was little. One thing that Asher really enjoys doing (and has made quite a bit of money off of) is finding rare potion ingredients. She likes the focus and calm that searching for them gives her. Potion-making brings Asher enjoyment as well, as it makes her focus on the exactness of every ingredient. Asher’s favorite food is the tomato, and she’s a huge pasta fan. 

[b]Skills:[/b] Asher’s gifts and attention to detail make her an excellent forager for potion ingredients. She knows where to look for the rarest ingredients, and her experience in ingredient running makes her all the more knowledgeable. Asher’s very smart, book-wise. She was schooled very well in history, mathematics, herbology, and potion-making. Asher’s gift will be discussed in the abilities section, as it will be pivotal in defeating the Red Legion. She has a good memory and is very organized. Asher doesn’t generally lose things. 

[b]Backstory:[/b] In order for you to understand the story of Asher Stormfront, you need to know some information about the Stormfront Family in general. The Stormfronts are an ancient family, their lineage stretching back thousands of years. For the entirety of their existence, Stormfronts have had a certain gift known as The Sight: the ability to see into the future. This made them exceptionally powerful wizards and useful advisors to the kings of various lands, who paid them top dollar for their prophetic visions. The modern-day Stormfront family is headed by Isaiah Stormfront, and operates out of a beautiful, Loire Valley-esque castle on the border of Concordius and Nepharie, in a neutral area owned by the family. 

Asher was born in Stormfront Castle, the tenth of eleven children. She grew up in a household where family was of the most dire importance, and everyone seemed to be very close. From the young age of two, Asher began schooling in a variety of subjects, from etiquette to potion-making, and by age ten she could balance books on her head while walking or brew an anesthetic potion blindfolded. Her father seemed to have a great liking for Asher, and the two were very close. She was the “daddy’s little girl” of the family, always the first to run to Isaiah when she was being teased or bullied. In addition to her father, Asher seemed to take a particular liking to her slightly-older brother Joel (because twenty years is nothing to a Fairfolk). When they were very young, the two would play together, and when they got older they both learned musical instruments and schemed to run away and become troubadors. 

Over the years, Asher grew in magical strength and prowess. She became a pretty powerful witch for someone who had only been training for sixteen years, and by age twenty had mastered the four elements. On her twentieth birthday, however, Asher learned something which would change her life forever. She was pulled into her father’s study, and the two sat by the fire for a while and talked. Isaiah told her the story of the entire Stormfront Clan, from the first Noah Stormfront five thousand years ago to the story of his father Elijah Stormfront, who saved the kingdom of Concordius from losing the war with the Cyclopes by predicting cyclopean attacks and using his powerful magic to repel a regiment of cyclopes single-handedly. Then Isaiah told Asher a terrible truth, that the more diluted the Stormfront Bloodline becomes, the less-powerful the successive generation becomes. One day, he warned, the bloodline would so diluted that they would lose The Sight. Isaiah wasn’t going to let that happen, and nonchalantly he asked Asher to sleep with her brother, Joel. He said that she would bear the next Stormfront son, who would be more powerful than the others. Furthermore, Isaiah ensured Asher that she was not the only member of her household who has had incest with their sibling; he revealed that Asher’s nephew Malachai and niece Noadia were the children of Ezekiel and Miriam. Asher resisted; she wouldn’t do such a terrible thing. She left for her room and stayed there, trying to keep the others out. She became paranoid and reclusive, rarely leaving her room for fear of being raped. One day, she came into her room and saw Joel there, standing by the window. They talked about what their father had said to them, and it almost seemed like Joel was okay with it. Asher was not. Joel moved to kiss her, smartly positioning her between himself and the bed. Asher grabbed an herb-cutting knife from her nightstand and stabbed him. He cried out and collapsed to the ground, bleeding. Horrified with what she had done, Asher dropped the knife and fled out of the window, leaving Joel to die and her hands stained with his blood. 

Unsure of where to go, she fled to the town of Fibini, where she discovered that her father was searching for her. He confronted her after about two weeks in the village square, and began to fight. Asher swore that if he laid a finger on her, she would tell the priests of Concordius about the incest and the Stormfront family would be excommunicated. He reluctantly let her escape, and she fled to the south, to a Jikari city. There, she met Kjed Svero, child of the chieftain Bjorn, and for a while they were romantically involved, as Asher was desperate to clean herself of the guilt which she felt. When Isaiah Stormfront heard that his daughter was fooling around with the child of Bjorn Svero, he was infuriated; how DARE she fornicate with a foreigner! He became angry once more, and chased after her, burning an entire village to the ground to find her. Once more 

Asher escaped, this time to Orarius, where she decided to attend some classes at the Grand Tower to get back into her magic training. Magic, she figured, was the only way she’d be able to defend herself should Isaiah find her. She was much quieter this time, though, and disguised herself as a new person through the use of cosmetic potions. She trained at the Grand Tower for seven years, bettering her magical skills and learning a few new potion-making tricks. After about seven years, though, Asher had her first real vision of the future. 

She saw a mighty dragon bearing down upon an Orcish warrior who she realized almost immediately to be Kjed. He was in a rocky valley, and as she watched a dragon descended and attacked him. He put up a good fight, but it was no match for the monster. It bathed him in flames, and he died. Immediately Asher left for the Lonesome Valley and got there just as Kjed’s hunting party was about to fight an Elder Dragon who had attacked a tribe of herders. With the addition of her magic, Kjed survived and the two were back together once more. They lived together for four years, and it seemed like Asher would marry the young prince. Asher used her Sight on multiple occasions to protect the village from attacks, and even helped defeat a dragon who was hell-bent on destroying the village. Unfortunately, though, Asher’s happiness could not last. It happened that one day, Kjed’s brother Drepe went hunting and was attacked by a wyvern. The dragon killed him brutally, leaving Kjed the only heir to his father. While Kjed loved Asher, he realized that he had a duty to his tribe to produce the next heir after he and his father died. 

So Asher left. She lived in Marisson for a little bit, working as an apprentice for a famous gnome potion-maker there, who sent her all around the region on missions to procure rare potion ingredients. This allowed her to travel across Jikari and the Southern Isles a good deal, though she only worked there for about three years before having another vision. In this vision, she saw a volcano erupting in the North, and she happened to arrive just after Mount Phoenix erupted and engulfed the city of Balkadron. This incident made her decide to use her powers for good. Asher began to travel around, using her Sight to stop tragedies and save lives. Before saving a city, she took a cosmetic potion which changed her appearance to the one she had while in Orarius (a pale-skinned elf girl with red hair, green eyes, and no wings). While Asher Stormfront was almost unknown throughout the land, Claire Fleur (her pseudonym when transformed) became somewhat famous as a gifted witch. She travelled to Ostracus, the Wilderness Colonies, all three regions of Nepharie, and a large bazaar in Dorakis, following prophecies there and saving lives. About five years ago, Chancellor Feuille gave her a knighthood for saving the mayor of Orarius from an assassination attempt. 

About eight months ago, Asher was in Pyreton, brewing potions to make some extra money. This was kind of a down time in her life as a seer; she hadn’t had many visions as of late, and the one which she had (a fire engulfing a massive amount of farmland in the Wilderness) she was unable to stop. There she met Apollos Dominico del Orarius, the swashbuckling master thief and professional adventurer. She found something very attractive in him, reminiscent of what made her love Kjed, and soon they were travelling together, having many adventures around the region.

[b]Relationships:[/b]

| Apollos Dominico del Orarius | Excellent | Lover | “I really love Apollos, but I wish he would be a little less...hedonistic. He can be a dick when he’s drunk. But still, I really don’t want to be alone anymore.” 

| Isaiah Stormfront | Bad | Father | “I once believed my father to be a great and loving man, but now I have seen his true nature; he is a madman, obsessed with purity. I dare him to ever touch him again.” | 

| Kjed Svero | Good | Ex-lover | “I miss dear Kjed sometimes. He may have been rather rash and somewhat unintelligent, but he was just so sweet and lovable. But he has a duty to his tribe, and I cannot deprive him of that.” 

[b]Weaponry:[/b] Asher doesn’t carry any real weapons save an herb-cutting knife, but she does have her magic. Asher is an exceptionally powerful mage, but that will be discussed in the abilities section. Asher carries with her a leather belt pouch which, like Apollos' chest, is bigger on the inside (although it's not nearly as big as the inside of the chest, and in internal space is about the size of a briefcase). It contains the following items
-1 vial of anesthetic potion (pain relief) 
-1 vial of anti-hemorrhaging potion (stops bleeding) 
-1 vial of antiseptic potion (kills gangrene and other infectious bacteria) 
-1 vial of scrying potion (a potion she can use with her Sight) 
-1 vial of Cosmetic potion (turns Asher into Lady Claire Fleur, an elf girl with white skin, red hair, green eyes, and no wings) 
-1 vial of phantom dust (creates a very thick black smoke when exposed to air) 
-Ingredients to make an anesthetic potion (tonic water, vanilla bean, Matrem’s hair, green tea leaves) 
-Ingredients to make an anti-hemorrhaging potion (bat saliva, willow bark, witch hazel, geranium petals) 
-Ingredients to make an antiseptic potion (tonic water, penicillium spores, Balm of Gilead, Zilant blood)
-Ingredients to make a cosmetic potion (crushed rose petals, elf hair, Matrem's hair, unicorn hair, aloe vera, sweet flag, green tea leaf, almond oil, carrot skin, eucalyptus oil) 
-some gold coins (about fifty on her personally, and she keeps the rest in Apollos’ chest) 
-An herb-cutting knife. 

The second pouch, which is on her opposite hip, contains any rare potions ingredients which she finds. Asher has a knack for discovering rare ingredients, and when she finds them, she puts them in vials in the other pouch. She will occasionally sell these ingredients to other wizards who are in need of them. 

Around Asher’s neck is a blue topaz pendant. She received this pendant from her father many years ago. It acts as a magic-strengthening agent, making her spells more powerful. 

[b]Abilities:[/b] Firstly, Asher is a very accomplished witch. She has mastery over the four elements and their direct combinations, and has some grasp on elemental balancing, though she isn’t as good as Wizzlebee or Iro in this regard. Still, if you piss of Asher, she’s going to be a very difficult witch to beat. Asher’s real ability, though, comes with The Sight. Asher, whether she likes it or not, is a Stormfront, meaning that she possesses The Sight: the ability to see the future. These visions allow her to see things which are to come, and she naturally knows where these events are happening. Asher has two ways of using The Sight; dreaming and scrying. Asher naturally sees the future through her dreams, though these dreams are somewhat infrequent and can occasionally be unreliable. An alternative to dreaming for Asher is scrying, which she can achieve by making an extremely complicated potion and pouring said potion into a pool of calm water. Now any ordinary wizard can scry, but by activating her powers above said pool, Asher goes into a trance where she can see a vision of the future in the pond, though she is the only one who can see it. This potion has very complicated ingredients, however (wisp ash, ginseng, leviathan oil, club moss spores, jellyfish stingers, mint, lemon juice, chamomile, and unicorn blood), and so Asher uses it very sparingly. Asher’s Sight also attracts wisps to her, which multiply her abilities and glow brighter around her. Also, like all Fairfolk, Asher is protected by nature. Wild animals tend to defend her if she’s attacked, and trees strengthen to not break when she climbs them. 

[b]Weaknesses:[/b] Well firstly, Asher is completely useless without magic. She has very little physical strength and can hardly hold a sword, much less use it. As far as her Sight goes, Asher’s ability isn’t exactly accurate. It gives her a where and a what, but not a when, how, who, or why. She can’t tell when the event will happen, why it’s happening, how it will happen, or who will do the event (occasionally she can do the last one). Asher’s dreams are very infrequent as well, she can’t control when she gets them, and she only has so much scrying potion. 

[b]Companion:[/b] She travels with Apollos, who, considering that he keeps all of her extra clothing, vials, and money in his magic chest, kinda counts as a beast of burden. Asher has a white Nepharie horse named Gemma.

So we're gonna be starting in three different places due to the high volume of members. The following is a description of the three cities where we will start. Once the rp starts, characters may spread out to anywhere in Tithe (save Ignion): 

<span class=""bb-b"">Location One: Capital City</span>

Capital City is a huge city roughly octagonal in shape. The city is surrounded by a very old roughly octagonal yellowed stone wall that is in the process of being repaired. There are six gates into the city, one large one in each cardinal direction large enough for wagons and large caravans (like Doraki traders), as well as two small gates big enough for one or two people to pass through at a time. Inside, the city is divided into several neighborhoods which don't have names in my mind and I'm not gonna think of one for them. Generally houses to the north are smaller than houses to the south, which are large mansions where many of the senators live. Most of the houses are timber with red shingles. The smaller houses in the north are in row form, while the larger houses to the south are single-family-style. The castle is in the exact center of the city, and resembles the Kremlin, with a whole lot of really tall minarets with domes on the tops. Many of the characters will be in a tavern known as The Snorting Dragon adjacent to the northern gate. It's your typical medieval porthouse, serving ale, port, whiskey, and a very selective variety of foods (primarily steak and sausage). Outside of the tavern to the south is a large market square where a variety of vendors are selling their wares. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Location Two: Maceron</span>

Maceron is a city a little smaller than Capital City, and is located in Talbor. The city is rigidly square, with high walls of stone supported by steel beams. From the outside it looks incredibly ominous and foreboding, as wooden palisades tipped in metal line the walls and black smoke from the ironworks floats up into the sky, forming a black cloud above the city. There are three entrances to the city, one to the south, one to the east, and one to the west, all of which are wide and protected by palisades when someone isn't going through them. Ballistas sit at strategic points along it and watchtowers burn smoke signals into the sky. The inside of the city is all brick and mortar, with geometrically perfect cobblestone streets and row houses made of brick or grey stone. Inside of the walls, near the center of the city, is a large hill surrounded by a second stone wall. Behind this wall is an enormous castle of grey stone in distinctly English style, with thick turrets and ballistas at the top of each tower. The entire northeastern section of Maceron is the Ironworks, an enormous and extensive series of factory-like buildings where the city mass-produces steel. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Location Three: Juvegol</span>

Juvegol is the smallest of the three cities, and sits on the bank of the Frost River, a river canyon that snakes its way across the north, making a border between the Northlands and the Wilderness. Juvegol is built around a large and wide stone bridge across the river, making the only manmade bridge across it. It is a drawbridge, and is able to be lowered into the canyon or raised to create a walkway. The city is roughly semicircular in shape, with new-looking stone walls that zigzag around the perimeter not bordered by the river. A little bit of the city is on the other side of the river, but these are only a few taverns and the houses of some woodsmen and peasant farmers. There are three gates in the walls, one large one to the north and two small ones, one to the northeast and one to the northwest. The buildings in Juvegol are mainly timber with thatch roofs. The city's keep is not in the center, but offset to the right, near one of the walls. It is generally square-shaped and tall, with not many turrets or towers. The main action will be taking place at the market square by the river, where on the other side of the river some visitors are arriving.

I've gotta say guys, I never thought I'd be right here. This is the biggest rp I have ever commanded, and the most work I have ever put into a project, and quite frankly I'm terrified. I don't have the best track record with roleplays; in the past I have dropped several of them without much warning and they rarely get off of the ground. But that's not going to happen this time, because this world and this roleplay are embedded in my soul. When I was young, I dreamed of the Kingdom of Talbor, a cold and mountainous land where knights dedicated to the noble ram battled gargoyles and minotaurs and all assortments of demonic beasts. It grew and grew from there, soon including other lands; a great elf kingdom where minarets spiral into the sky from the bases of castles and a forest of moving trees where a well of pure magic dwells. Soon it needed an enemy, and I found in this the Red Legion, an armada of massive size who fought to destroy magic once and for all. This world has been in my head for half a decade, and so help me God I will not let it fail. I promise to you guys that I will do the best to be the best GM I can be, and I promise that if you have faith in me, we will all have quite a bit of fun in the next few months.

When I was young, I dreamed of the Kingdom of Talbor, a cold and mountainous land where knights dedicated to the noble ram battled gargoyles and minotaurs and all assortments of demonic beasts. It grew and grew from there, soon including other lands; a great elf kingdom where minarets spiral into the sky from the bases of castles and a forest of moving trees where a well of pure magic dwells. Soon it needed an enemy, and I found in this the Red Legion, an armada of massive size who fought to destroy magic once and for all. This world has been in my head for half a decade, and so help me God I will not let it fail. I promise to you guys that I will do the best to be the best GM I can be, and I promise that if you have faith in me, we will all have quite a bit of fun in the next few months.

Well firstly not many elves are particularly religious, and so they wouldn't really care. However, Elves who are religious still eat meat and vegetables, but before killing said object say a prayer thanking Matrem for the food and promising her that they will use the energy for good and will one day return it (through death and decomposition). If an elf eats food in a restaurant, it doesn't affect them because the food is already dead. </div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Kane Bounevialle
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 28
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span>  Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Human
<span class=""bb-b"">Kingdom of Origin:</span> Talbor

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical appearance:</span> With the stature and body of a soldier, and the disposition and appearance of a noble, it is a little difficult to put a finger on Kane by appearance alone. A life of hard work has done well for him and his growth. Kane stands at a solid six feet in height and weighs in at about 160 lbs. A good deal above the average human height, he finds himself looking down on most people in the literal sense. Pair with his height a variety of sharp features such as his jawline, high cheekbones, squared-off chin, blond hair, and dinaric nose, his overall appearance is striking. His aforementioned blond hair is a pale color, and is cleaned and well-kept. It is of medium length as the hair does not fall below his shoulders, but is still long enough to curtain and frame his face, although it is generally combed back in a wind-blown style.

Constantly on duty, his face is often stern, maintaining his official status and regal appearance. His skin lacks the tan a man would usually have if he spent all day under the sun like he does, but his naturally pale skin has at least since darkened in tone, and sits in-between those shades. These colors provide little contrast with one another, but blends, and amber eyes contribute to that. Sharply-angeled eyebrows frame his eyes, and with his often stoic expression, gives him a cold and calculating appearance in the presence of his warm color scheme, especially when those eyes trail your every move. Even the sound of his voice, unexpected of a soldier, sounds cool, clam, and collected. Though as a soldier, he is still capable of conjuring the booming force and projection of an officer.

Devoting his life to the sword and liberty of the people, in addition to his early days of farm-work, his physique is sublime, even if it falls short of peak human conditioning. His grueling days of training back when he was a cadet was thorough: crunches, push ups, leg training, being pelted by rocks – every part and aspect of his body was pushed in the training to be a Knight of the Ram. As expected, his body, hands, and feet are riddled with scars, but there is nary a scar to be found on Kane's face. He was of the opinion that a knight's acceptance was affected by charisma and presentation, as it would be his face that'd be leading his people.

<span class=""bb-b"">Attire:</span> In the most basic of adornments, Kane wears an off-white linen shirt with sleeves down to his wrist and the neck left unstrung. A similar color of linen pants is paired with it, along with woolen socks. Over these are leather boots that are strung up to the calves. Only in the most humble and modest of situations are these worn among others. In more formal advents are more presentable clothing pieces donned. A black leather saberist jerkin, for instance. The jerkin itself is sleeveless, allowing Kane's white sleeves to feed through. The buttons on the jerkin are entirely on the left side of the article, and can be buttoned all the way up, or save a couple to leave a flap – which is entirely for the sake of fashion (the latter is more frequently done to reflect Kane's “proper” appearance). In unison with this, breeches –  or more often, jodhpurs – are worn. The wool breeches are gray whereas the jodhpurs are a black leather. The dark color scheme contrasts heavily with Kane's brighter, natural colors, but is there for the sake of making dirt and such to be less visible, and a leather outfit provides at least some protection in the event of an emergency spur-of-the-moment conflict.

In preparation for battle or duty, however, the color scheme returns to bright and noble colors. The suit of armor Kane dons is shined and polished, detracting from the scratches that decorates the armor. The suit of armor is heavy and bulky. We're talking full-on plate armor with chainmail lining wherever there are joints, with an aketon underneath the suit. The breastplate and backplate are of course large plates of armor that protects most of Kane's organs, and are sleek in their design. The breastplate and backplate are actually divided into two separate parts. Two plates of armor overlap, allowing the knight to breathe with his chest and move his chest around. The armor plates slides against each other and is so close together and tied tightly enough that a sword slipping through the plates would be highly improbable. In addition, a couple pieces of armor are in place that retracts the need for a full gorget. The pauldrons he wears are large. The cover his shoulder down to the middle of his biceps, and there is an extension to the top of the pauldrons that raises up and flares out to protect his neck. On these pauldrons, there is a gold leaf trim where they flare up around the neck and three gold-leaf coated studs on the armor where the flares are bolted to the pauldrons. There is a half-sized gorget that acts as little more than a throat guard. The gorget itself is highly decorated in what appears to be a design resembling a fleur-de-lis, which is entirely coated in gold leaf.

That is all there is for the most notable aspects of his armor, where the rest are greaves on his calves, cuisses on his thighs, and so on. The only other areas of his armor trimmed with gold leaf is around the fan-plates over his knees, the top of his sabatons, and along the vambraces of his gauntlets. Kane opts to forgo his helmet (a bascinet, well-suited for ventilation and deflecting blows) most of the time as he often finds himself planning and leading a charge, and consequently needing to get a good few of the field and more effectively calling his commands.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> The core of Kane's motivations is “the sake of liberty and law for the people”. Truly, he embodies the principles and ideals of soldiers and guardsmen, and has upheld these ideals since the beginning of his aspirations. While many people become knights and guards for the esteem, the money, or for the thrill, Kane has wanted to do good and protect others back when he was a boy. Those ideas were attributed to and represented by knights and guards and soldiers, which thereby inspired him to follow that path. He, amidst his virtues, recognizes he is not without flaws, and works hard to compensate for those negative aspects of his character. He has a soft spot for the vulnerable and poor, but he has little tolerance for domination, prejudice, and corruption. He even goes as far as to root it out from wherever it may be hiding, for the sake of protecting the greater good. At his best, Kane is selfless, loyal, and compassionate.

Despite his altruism, Kane's disposition is something of a hindrance to those who wish to approach him. He is a highly disciplined knight after all, shaped to a soldier's protocol. As a rule of thumb, is not allowed to become emotionally invested lest he lose his cool demeanor. Keeping a level head is crucial in being a Talborian Knight of the Ram. His discipline, however, also lends to him a degree of tenacity quite unlike the typical soldier or guardsman. This stubborn rigidness gives him the “never give up” code and quick-to-act reflexes he carries with him even to this day. Kane has often been credited among his troop that, should they ever have to fight one another, he might win just by outlasting them all through sheer willpower. Granted, he is also credited to being the biggest stick-in-the-mud of the team, and very rarely does Kane drop the sense of duty and stoic temperament.

The knight is also intelligent and carries with him a certain charisma. The intelligence is due to the education that he had received in his training to be a knight, since no respectable high-ranking soldier can serve the royal court and be deemed a fool or moron. His intelligence is well applied to practical use. Among his cadet class, Kane was among the top ten percentile for strategy and tactics. His charisma factor is a different story, and has very little to do with his training. It is a sort of noble selflessness that Kane has held close to heart since he was a young teen. His capability for empathy and his devotion to others allows him to carry the flag of command and inspire others, or calm the angry. Being a talented fighter and strategist, he can be very calculating in the midst of a fight or spar. This calculating behavior influences other aspects of his life as well.

However, his charisma is not all that it is cracked up to be. Despite being able to inspire in the heat of the moment, Kane still possesses the predisposition to be intellectually oriented. The aforementioned calculating behavior detracts from his appearance as being compassionate. He comes across as unmoving and stoic; cold and uptight. You would think the man has never had the heart to live it up some, as one could see when considering that Kane regards music as a distracting novelty, and being overall oblivious and unmindful in the area of romance or sex. Also, one of the quirks that was often made fun of back at the barracks was how picky of an eater he was. If he looked at the plate of food and thought he wouldn't like it, he wouldn't eat it – or even <span class=""bb-i"">touch</span> it. Granted, if he were starving, this would change, but he'd accept it reluctantly. While he is generally open-minded, he can be a little black and white if he sets his mind on one thing for too long. At his worst, Kane can be distant, stubborn, and evangelical.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies/interests:</span> As a knight-turned-guardsman who is very much dedicated to his duty, he has little time to do or think about much in the ways of hobbies or interests. As he was once a knight of the highest prestigious order,  he got somewhat involved in the political field. While he is by no means talented in the area, he possesses a mild curiosity in politics. If he were to lead, and lead effectively, this is surely something he should look into, right? He has a natural curiosity when it comes to people as well. He seeks to protect them,their freedom, and their ideas, regardless of what they are. When Kane has nothing to do and cannot sleep at night, he writes unaddressed letters.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Kane was once a farm boy, so he has a natural inclination to perform any farm activities with little struggle. He worked specifically on a grape vineyard, which in itself is a little different from other produce, but he'd likely get the hang of it. He has an understanding of survival techniques and therefore can get by in the wilderness for a period of time and set up a camp. And while nothing exceptional, being a picky eater forces him to learn how to cook for himself. As one a Knight of the Ram cavalry, he is an expert on horseback and understands basic animal husbandry when it comes to horses. Being an inspiring captain and field commander, Kane is an exceptional orator. He happens to be something of an amateur calligrapher due to his nights of aimless letter writing.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> He was born on a Talborian vineyard to a pair of farmers. They were by no means from any noble bloodline, and their ancestry can be traced down to nothing more than a couple of men and women with a patch of dirt to their name. However, the acres of land under Bounevialle's name has proliferated since those days. The Bounevialle vineyards are by no means the largest vineyard, nor are they the most expensive. Their vineyard was just a few twelve acres or so on a small patch of fertile soil in the midst of the rocky, mountainous region. The end product was a mid-price concord grape, and was difficult to find in most breweries and taverns. When Kane became of working age, and as his father and mother were wearing down, he'd spend most of his days tending the vineyard and harvesting the grapes. This often brought him home with hands bloodied by the thorns and littering them with scars and calluses. While the Bounevialle family were considered what was essentially middle-class, they were still too short on money, and especially too short on time to invest in Kane's education.

Kane has a sister six years younger than he, and with her birth, brought on the early stages of his protective side. When he'd come home from laboring a long day in the vineyard, he'd come home and watch over his sister while his parents went off into the market. He'd cook her and himself some supper, often a potato and carrot stew, with small chunks of meat floating about in the broth. It was nothing fancy, but it was easy to please a toddler as long as you assured them it was something tasty. They never had grapes available though. What couldn't be locked up in a barrel was taken to market to sell. Almost always there was a buyer, and on those super rare occasions that there were grapes leftover, there wasn't much left that could be put into a crepe, but there were almost always some blueberries to put in that could supplement the lack of grape filling.

In between those years and the day he left home, he'd find himself fighting bullies that were harassing his sister. It almost seemed like every other week – it didn't matter how outmatched he was, Kane always fought them. An angry big brother who spent his days working on farms was usually enough to at least chase those kids away.

Years pass, and at the age of 14, Kane brought up the prospect of becoming a knight. Not just any knight however, but a Knight of the Ram, in direct service to the country. His parents agreed to his requests, of course. It was a noble calling, and Kane's sister was old enough to help with farm work. In fact, looking up to Kane all her life had inspired her to help him pick grapes even when she was little. The thorns never scared her off. Kane had walked off to the Talbor capital of Maceron a couple miles off and stopped the castle barracks front door. They had initially turned down his request to enter as a squire, as he was already far over the age of 10 and was ineligible to become a page, but he didn't so much as walk five feet away. Not wanting to walk home as a failure, he stayed there. He'd ask again and again, every time the door opened. It was a “no” every single time. Kane still remained there, and squatted in that spot for two days without anything to eat or drink. At that point, Kane was desperate and resorted to begging. When the head of the order, Sir Fallon, found a starving boy groveling near the steps, he took him in and fed him. Gave him water. A bed for a night or two. Then he turned him back loose.

Kane repeated the process. This time, he was out there for three days, asking to be made a squire. It was less easy to sympathize with an illiterate farmboy the second time around when he starts begging. Sir Fallon resigned and permitted the boy to walk into the barracks. After his recuperation, he'd begin his days as a squire where he will first be educated and then he will perform his duties in his services for the the Knights of the Ram.

His days as a squire were not easy. He first had to receive an education if he were to become of such a noble order, and he crunched hours day in and day out taking in as much as he could. He learned how to read and to write, he learned arithmetic, some science and chemistry, and of course, extensive lessons in history and the finer arts, such as dance. It was expected of a noble knight, as strange as it was. It took a while in all of that, but with hard devotion, he got it all done in two years, putting to rest all doubts amongst the order that there'd be no hope for a teenager that didn't even know how to read yet. At sixteen, his real chores were only beginning.

As an arming squire, he was appointed to a knight and was required to perform all duties and services the knight requested. His knight's name was Sir Raleigh Cruz. A simple if not humble man, and surprisingly modest for a noble. This duty involved taking care of the knight's horses and his armor, dressing the knight in his armor, running chores and messages, waiting the knight's table, guarding him as he slept, and even accompanying his knight to the battlefield. There hardly seemed to be more time for anything else, but amidst all that, he was expected to train in the use of weapons, including marksmanship, exercise to develop their bodies, climbing, athletic, and swimming skills, and horsemanship. He was also required to learn the code of chivalry and rules of heraldry if he were to become a knight. It was also his duty to enter the social life of the castle and learn: courtly etiquette, jousting, music, and dancing.

All of this had a huge impact on Kane's discipline and triggered him to form rigid schedules that left little to no time for himself. At the end of these hard and trying days, when he would stay awake to watch his knight's sleeping hide, he'd write letters. Given the amount of time available to him, he'd write slowly and carefully, allowing him the time to pick out the best words possible and write in the best and neatest way possible. He'd begin writing letters to his little sister. Letters that she'd never read because the family wasn't literate. Still, every night he would do this, writing a letter for his sister, finish it, and then stare at the end product for a while and sigh before he puts it away in his strongbox. There are countless letters in his box, and it has gotten to the point where Kane's handwriting is among the finest and neatest in the castle.

Martial training was something Kane thoroughly enjoyed whenever his knight would allow him to spend the day training instead of accompanying him, but it was exceptionally harder than anything he ever had to do on the farm. With the thin mountain air, he often found himself on the verge of unconsciousness. Amidst that, he learned how to use swords and shields, he learned how to carry his armor and how to wear it properly, he even learned crossbow shooting. Though it was one of the more difficult skills for him to learn, proper aim was still important to learn as a knight. During his spar sessions with the other squires, often using dulled swords or wooden swords, he found himself best suited when both were using only longswords. Contrary to popular belief, these fights did not last very long. It doesn't take a long time for someone to land a hit on the other person, and in the case of sparring circles, the squire who won the match must get into position as the next squire in line entered the circle comes in to replace the loser. Among the squires, Kane landed in the top fifteen percentile for martial skill.

There was also the thinking side of military training. The squires had to practice tactics and strategy extensively if they were going to be any more useful than disposable fodder. While a steadfast and protective fellow, and by no means a slouch in the physical department, Kane truly shined in the area of tactics and strategy, and it was where his introverted nature functioned at its best. He wasn't a prodigy among his peers, but what he did have over the others was his determination to succeed and his devotion to the cause of knighthood. He developed a strategy in one of the board games, inspired by a type of polearm, like that of a corseque, or ranseur, or even a spetum – a triple spearhead. It was similar to that of a spearhead assault. The problem with spearheading an assault is that is leaves a risk for being taken advantage of and being flanked. With the triple spearhead, it takes advantage of that risk, and eliminates flanking enemy units, and also acts as two smaller spearheads on either side, further separating the hostile army.

Among the squires, Kane landed in the top ten percentile for strategy.

Top twenty percentile for history.

He, however, suspiciously did not make it into the top twenty percentile for comprehension of the code of chivalry and courtly behavior. It was outrageous to him! To consider all the years he has spent devoting himself to chivalry and acting accordingly amidst the goofing and playing of the other squires. His serious disposition offered contention to dissenters. An explanation was later provided to him that an earlier accusation made against a court noble after alleged corruption via acceptance of bribery – and that, to maintain favor with the court, was forced to remove Kane's score from the board regardless of the truth. Kane begrudgingly followed his knight's word.

His  squire training and duties was supposed to last seven years, as it does for all squires. Considering how he crunched years of education that was supposed to be learned as a young page in two years, and started his training and duties at age 16, this would mean he wouldn't become a knight until he was 23 years old, 2 years after some of his class had already become Knights of the Ram. At the age of 19, three years into his training, a castle watch guard sounded the alarming signaling for an impending bandit raid. All of the guardsman and even the Knights of the Ram were awakened in the dead of night to prepare. The raiding party was still a bit far off and provided time for planning. However, with most of the real strategists off abroad, there was none in the immediate vicinity that could think clearly just minutes after being awoken. As Kane was strapping Sir Cruz's armor on, he pitched his idea: the triple-spearhead. There were objections to using an untested tactic, of course, but Kane continued. The present Knights of the Ram would lead the initial charge and spearhead the raiding party, as they were the most skilled and experienced and could fend off the majority of bandits and outlaws. The following two waves would follow, consisted of soldiers and guardsmen, and would cover the knights' flank and assault two other sections of the party.

There were still some dissent among the present party, but with no time to waste, a couple of the knighthood agreed to his strategy and thereby pulled the support from the remaining soldiers.

When the defense relocated outside the gate, the got into positions. Kane was mounted on Sir Cruz's horse along with him, riding right behind, armed with a spear. Here, his equestrian skills were tested. Mounted on the horse's flanks, holding a spear, right behind Sir Cruz who bore a sword and shield. The shield gave cover to both him and and Kane, and the sword to eliminate close threats. He and the Knights of the Ram, along with their squires, led the charge, with their relief force on standby and prepared to follow in pursuit. As soon as the knights broke through the raiders' charge, the relief force began their own charge. The Knights of the Ram, the undefeated Talborian cavalry, pierced into the heart of the enemy army and plowed all that stood in their way. Before they had a chance to come around and swallow them in a flank, the second wave of soldiers cut down the barbarians while their backs were turned. It has later been referred to unofficially as the hurricane tactic, where a devastating wave would sweep in, and the enemy would falsely consider that the defense - the eye of the storm - and then another wave returns.

In the following battle, Kane had shed his fair share of blood, and ended a couple of lives by his own hand. Not a single Knight of the Ram had perished, and there were but two casualties among the soldiers. Kane's tactic had caught the enemy off guard, resulting in five decimations of the raiding party and the total unconditional surrender of the remaining attackers – a decisive victory.

A ceremony the next day celebrated the bravery and skill of the Knights of the Ram and the Maceron guard. Kane received an honorable mention and, as a reward for his bravery and instrumentality to defeating the enemy with minimal casualties, was permitted to ascend into knighthood early. Shaving two years off his years as a squire, he'd be a Knight of the Ram along with any other passing squires.

Two years later, he was knighted as a Knight of the Ram as Sir Bouenevialle by nobility themselves. Most knights were knighted and serve either a lord or a king, but in Kane’s case, a lady. He was knighted by Lord Ericur Tolkien (an androgynous noble with massive pastures filled with sheep) and was to protect their land, and as a full-fledged knight of the order, he himself was now considered of noble blood. Quickly sending royal servants to the Bounevialle vineyard to help his family and to give his little sister an education that she wouldn’t have otherwise received. There is, suffice to say, a little more Bounevialle wine on the tavern shelves, but it was still a rather rare kind of wine when you compare it to the likes of the cheap Chardonnay  or the finer, more expensive wines. Regardless, Kane was granted a plot of land of his own. Given his inclination to be working within the city and sleeping in the barracks and Knights of the Ram headquarters, he aimed that grant toward the Bouenevialle family. While the day of his knighthood was a day of celebration, his true hardships were only beginning.

Work started the next morning, bright and early. He was deployed along the Talborian border to assess the conditions of the nearby forts, and to assist in whatever way he could. With the Wilderness in the north, Kane often engaged in border control, often with only one or two guards to accompany him. Most of the trouble was the occasional skirmish of bandits, brigands, and outlaws. With the many hard years of training, the martial skill of wild men looked to be child’s play. This was often his job, patrolling the border, escorting trade caravans, and escorting nobles, ambassadors, and diplomats. Staving off highwaymen and assassins alike, it felt as though the childhood nightmares of mean men on the countryside had been turned upside down, as they were but small babes wielding toys in comparison to him. The longer he remained a knight, the less important he felt his role, as his duties were summed down to be a glorified bodyguard. Even in the presence of nobility, standing amongst the court in official business, he didn’t quite feel like he was serving the common people as he expected to be.

These were just small missions. As a newly inducted Knight of the Ram, and with less time of training than the other squires, they were still testing Kane’s reliability. His flawless execution of his appointed tasks assured his superiors of his skill. The missions he took up were gradually bore greater and greater risks and higher reward. The tasks themselves, more prestigious. As a knight, another part of his duties was to administer justice. Missions included personal requests from his lord and barons, and on rare occasions, the king Draco Ferdinand. During peacetime, this often involved plundering bandit camps, rescuing hostages, or investigating kidnappings. This also meant patrolling around the crime-ridden capital of Maceron itself, with a blue and gold tabard dressing his armor, on top of a high horse. This in particular he was especially recognized for, as he did not only just subdue perpetrators - as many knights and guards did not due whether out of apathy or laziness - but also took those shifts as an opportunity to engage with the people. He took their pleas upon himself, whether it was talking down a lord from raising a poor family’s land tax, or paying a broke farmer’s debt off with his own. From settling disputes, tackling pickpockets, to escorting nobles and engaging in battle or honorable combat, Kane was respecting by the people he served. He was the only one that defended them even against other guards and knights… a risky action in itself.

Despite his preference to not get involved, he took part in tournaments to maintain and hone his skills. These tournaments were often international, and Kane was one of the few Knights of the Ram to take part in then. As a particularly trained and undefeated noble cavalry, as was expected of his order, his mere presence was enough to unnerve his competitors. Having won each of his matches - as mere soldiers and regular knights were mildly challenging at best - he took his winnings and invested them in public affairs in Maceron. Of his many opponents, that most challenging had to have been a king’s knight from central Nepharie, a senior glacial knight from the Northlands, and a peculiar camel-mounted orc from Jikari - though the challenge of the latter likely had much to do with his height advantage of sitting on a camel’s hump. It made jousting with him… interesting, to say the least. His experiences in tournaments provides him with insight in dealing with different kinds of obstacles, and has helped him learn to be adaptable.

One of the biggest events in the career of his knighthood was another, yet very different, and much more sensitive hostage situation: rescuing one of the barons. The cause of the event was unclear, but what was certain was that they were holed up in an abandoned fort and demanded two hundred thousand reon, which in itself would damage a huge chunk of the country’s coffers. So it was a decision between agreeing to their demands, or risking the life of a baron, which in itself would reflect badly on him and of the rest of the knighthood - in the long run, it would damage the welfare of the people. It challenged Kane’s stance of not compromising with outlaws. Kane was nothing if not honest, but in a circumstance such as this, there were perhaps people that did not deserve his honesty. With that conclusion, Kane formulated a strategy that’d show the world that Talbor does not compromise and that its people are not to be trifled with.

Through courier, it was established that it was a one-sided negotiation. They were not interested in dead-drops, debts, foreign currency, or anything of the sort. Cold, hard reons are to be delivered in person or the baron gets a scarlet neck tie. The business was to be made inside the fort. The fort overlooks the jigsaw river by about twenty feet at the base of the main tower. Kane agreed to their terms and brought a caravan carrying sacks upon sacks filled with reons, escorted by only himself and two guardsmen. As a show of faith, he appeared without his armor; just his boots, jerkin, and jodhpurs. There was his sword, of course, as it was customary for any noble or knight to carry it with him anywhere, but it was tied to his sheath with a strap of leather. After carrying the sacks of gold into the fort himself, and the guardsmen inconspicuously leaving the field in which the abandoned fort stood, going back into the forest some distance away. The bandits weighed the reons with a scale - it matched what they had expected from the ransom, according to their math. They returned the baron, who fled outside and mounted the horse provided to him.

With Kane and the baron riding away in the caravan at full speed, the baron couldn’t help but point out a peculiar smoke pillar rising from the forest. The sound of several wooden clunks followed, and with a sharp whistle, a giant, flaming, tar-coated boulder flew from the forest at great distance. Unyielding, Kane rode the baron and himself through the field, and the projectile had struck the tower at perfect trajectory with an explosion of dust, rubble, and fire behind him. With the caravan penetrating the treeline, they stopped at the side of the road and took a detour through the forest where Kane had met up with the two guards he was with before. With them, a giant trebuchet, already reloaded with another boulder coated in gooey, black tar, and a torch in one of the guardsmen’s hands.

“How’s our aim, sir?” One of them said smugly.

“Perfect.” Kane assured. “One shot was all it took. But while you’re at it… destroy whatever is left of the fort. We don’t need it anymore.”

“Yes sir.”

Another launch, and the fort walls went crumbling down. Another few and all that would remain is a pile of gravel. Kane and the baron returned to the caravan where he will return him to safety. Thus goes the story of one of the most successful critical-risk missions ever completed. In one fell swoop, a Knight of the Ram rescued the baron and maintained Talbor’s uncompromising image to the world. It was at the cost of a large chunk of the monarchy’s coffers that ultimately went to nobody, but with the stunt pulled, surely there’d be no one stupid enough to risk Talbor’s anger again. The rescued baron honored Kane’s bravery and cunning, and among the three hundred cavalry in the Knights of the Ram, he had been issued a captain at 25 years of age. 

He was in command of his own regiment, a team of four skilled knights. Among them were: Sir Sten Vellen, a pretty abrasive man, sarcastic, generally mean, but his motivations and heart are all in the right place. He was particularly skilled with crossbows. There was Sir Oscar Gene, who had the heart of bard more than he did a knight. Numbingly cheerful, he loved dancing and music, but was also the phalanx among them - his armor was heavy, and he bore a tall tower shield, a lance, and a gladius. Sir Alexander Xerxes, a half-orc, and was a particular curious case among the Knights of the Ram, as they often took only humans. His martial skill was incredible though, and paired with two war axes and a tall morningstar, only Oscar seemed capable of defending against his strength and fury. The fourth was a fresh knight, new to the order, Sir John March. He appeared naive and humble at the surface, much like a young boy, but the truth is that he became a knight earlier than many did, at the age of 20, because of his own skill and bravery. Put what looks to be a shy young man on the battlefield, and you’ll see him taunting and laughing at his opponents as he gave in to the thrill of battle. He bore a classic shield and longsword combo and was an exceptional jouster.

Despite the absurdly diverse team of knights at his disposal, who Kane himself contributed to with his stern and uptight demeanor, they came to be more like brothers than they were his subordinates. An inseparable team that, when working together, seemed to be unstoppable as they played upon each others strengths and weaknesses. Further, as miracles would have it, they all shared the same aspirations as Kane. These four knights in particular seemed to have been inspired by Kane’s oaths as he entered knighthood, that they too took up the ideals of liberty and justice, performing duty and services for the people and the people alone. Only on one drunken night of revelry did they admit that, if ever given the opportunity, would work with Kane. The miracle of being paired up with men like himself appeared a little less magical at the discovery that this arrangement was made out of requests, but it was heartwarming to realize that the superiors agreed to it.

Years later, after countless missions and adventures, and patrolling the city making a name for themselves as the knights of the people, things took a turn for the worse. On a lone night patrol through the city of Maceron, he stumbled upon candlelight emanating from inside a warehouse. Peering through the window to investigate, he spotted the baron he had saved from years ago in a conversation with a noble, and couple of other dirty men; shady types. He became alarmed when he noticed two orcs covered in rags, scarred and gagged. Slowly and carefully, he moved the window until there was but a crack and he could hear what they were saying.

To sum up what’s been heard, the noble employed mercenaries and slavers. The two orcs on the ground were supposedly warriors from Jikari. The baron himself was being bribed to allow the noble’s activities to continue - a process which had been going on for quite some time. From the sounds of it, even years. With the involvement of the baron and a noble, Kane feared the worst. He left the scene before he was discovered and returned to the barracks where the Knights of the Ram were stationed to talk to the headmaster of the order, Sir Fallon.. Sharing his concerns, about his fear of corruption in Talbor’s government. Fallon appeared solemn. For a few minutes he was speechless, but finally returned to Kane with a grave warning: to keep his nose out of business that didn’t concern him.

Kane, mortified, returned to his quarters as well as the quarters of his men. He shared everything he learned about corruption among the royalty and the nobles, and even Sir Fallon of the Knights of the Ram. His men instantly rallied behind him and began attempting to figure out a plan about how they were going to handle this. They all knew what had to be done, but none wished to say it aloud. A coup d’etat was in order, but the five men, Knights of the Ram or not, weren’t capable of doing it alone. So their goal was to risk going around and talking to the other knights of the order and try to persuade them to follow their cause. Kane, concerned first and foremost for the people, didn’t want to involve them in anything that might result in their harm. Perhaps, in his heart, Kane always knew there was something wrong with the monarchy. The people were said and distrusting of the guards, nobles, and knights.

Unfortunately, their coup didn’t go far. Foiled in the early stages of their plan, one of the contacted knights had contacted the Sir Fallon and told him about the stratagem Kane’s regiment was up to. The next time when the team was together, the Knights of the Ram stormed around Kane’s regiment with spears and swords circling all around them. The headmaster followed after, and informed Kane and his crew of his awareness of their scheming. They were taken away, tossed into the dungeon, and was scheduled for execution the next day. There were no words between the five men that night. Just solemn, dismayed glances and broken spirits.

The next morning, they held true to their word. His majesty, King Draco Ferdinand, had been buttering up the crowds and the people with words of their treachery and selfishness. When the priest of Adreal sung his prayers, Ferdinand asked Kane for his final words. He shouted into the crowd claims of corruption. About how he found the baron and nobleman, and the slavers and orcs in the warehouse the previous night. How the nobility was unscrupulous and corrupt, accepted bribes and perpetuated slavery. He shouted his experiences with the people, about how the nobility took advantage of the poor, and the number of debts Kane had repayed for them, the inordinate taxes he relieved them of. His reminders of all the things he has done for the people seem to have hit the crowd’s soft spot as indicated by how their demands for his execution and yelling traitor died down to nothing but silence. His noble actions apparently went unaware to even Sir Fallon, who solemnly looked away from Kane as he issued his last words.

Without so much as a suiting final phrase of goodbye, Kane went silent and accepted his fate. Instead, Ferdinand waved his hand for the executioner to stand by. He responded to his last words hesitantly. He expressed his shame in this misunderstanding. While Kane’s skill in oration served him well here, Ferdinand has had more experience in doing so - but even then, Kane could tell his words were insincere. The misunderstanding, he explained, had much in part to do with corruption among the nobles. A cunning choice of words on his behalf, as admission of fault made the argument more credible if one would willingly proclaim something that made a bad appearance of himself. He explained how he didn’t have full control over the land’s nobility. He explained that Kane must have misheard the conversation at the time due to his anxiety over the situation. That they had in fact rescued those two orc warriors from another noble’s control and were already released to return to Jikari.

In fact, that nobleman’s execution was scheduled to follow Kane’s and his regiment.

Guards escorted a well-dressed man up onto the headsman’s platform, cuffed and gagged. As a boot pushed him to kneeling onto the platform, he turned to face Kane wide-eyed with fear. This nobleman was, in fact, the same one he saw from last night.

The king continued. As a result, he would pardon the regiment as a token of forgiveness and understanding. Their goals, after all, were noble and for the welfare of the people. They could not let something as a coup go off so easy however. Each knight involved in the attempted coup were stripped of their knighthood and were demoted to simple guardsmen. But because of their skill and talent together, they will be permitted to work together as a separate division of the guard, G-2, of which Kane will be the captain. Kane and his men were subsequently released, and as they had done so, the headsman swung his gargantuan axe, and decapitated the nobleman’s head.

“Slavers,” the Ferdinand said, “and all those who tread on the rights of others… do not have the right to any last words.”

The crowd cheered wildly, and Kane and his men were escorted to their old quarters to pack all of their things, get proper food and rest, and then move to the new barracks where they will be stationed for now on. As Kane and king Draco Ferdinand went their separate ways, they met each other’s gaze. There he saw the truth. The stern expression and eyes of the cobra met Kane’s indignance, and amber eyes shone ferocity like a mongoose. It was at that moment they both knew that this battle was far from over.

It has been three months since that day.

Orc or not, I am honored to have such an individual within the walls of Maceron and it is my pleasure to serve such an artisan. I only wish I could do more to curb the prejudice her kind faces within Talbor.""</span> |
  
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Weaponry:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Large weapon:</span> A spontoon, otherwise known as a half-pike, is a 6-7 foot spear. Kane's in particular is almost 7 feet in length, and has the spear-head of a pike.
<span class=""bb-i"">Medium weapon:</span> A bastard sword, otherwise known as a two-handed longsword. The length of the sword is such that, while capable of being used one-handed, and also has a long handle, so its capabilities are maximized when used with two hands. Kane's in particular has a black leather grip on the handle, a conical shaped pommel, and a long blade. The sword itself is about 4 feet in length.
<span class=""bb-i"">Small weapon</span>: A dagger. The dagger that Kane possesses is nothing special or extraordinary. It is simply an emergency back-up in case he has been disarmed of his other two weapons. He keeps it hidden in his boot.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> As once being a Knight of the Ram, Kane possesses martial prowess equal to that of ten soldiers. Capable of carrying out missions and objectives single-handedly that’d normally take a squad of infantrymen to perform. His technique with a wide variety of weapons lends to him a flexibility that’d be useful in most combat situations, though his greatest prowess comes from the use of spears, pikes, and swords, keeping his enemies at a distance while taking the advantage of his superior reach. Even if the enemy gets around his reach, he can use his spear much like he would use a staff and use the shaft of his weapon to pummel the enemy away. He is exceptional with his bastard sword, a two-handed longsword. He skill with the blade, maneuverability, and strength are acknowledged by his peers and would outmatch any adversary without extensive training in combat. He also carries his armor well, and knows how to shift his weight <span class=""bb-i"">just so</span>, that he can maneuver in it without sacrificing too much speed. He is an expert riding on horseback.

His training has done more for him than just his skill in arms and armor. Extensive training exercises and workout routines in the Knights of the Ram are some of the strictest and most rigid to be found. The order of undefeated cavalry also train up in the mountains where the air is thin. So not just their muscular strength, but their endurance as well, is tested to absurd extremes. Pelted by rocks and struck by wooden swords has risen his pain tolerance to a degree where anything short of being slashed by a real blade would do little to slow him down. Being a knight, he also wears his heavy plated armor on a regular basis - where I will leave you to simply wonder how strong the man is.

In addition to his physical attributes, both knights and noblemen receive excellent educations. This means that Kane probably knows a fair deal more than the common man or woman. He knows his history, is literate, understands mathematical skills and applications, taught extensively in politics and courtship, and other fields of education befitting of a noble. While not necessarily an ability, Kane does possess a leader’s charisma. Whether or not he is everyone’s favorite person isn’t the issue, but he can inspire and encourage others under his banner. It is a combination of good will, passion, and sincerity that garners the trust of others and makes people want to believe in him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span> Naturally, Kane <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> only human. He shares all of the same mortal weaknesses as we do. We don’t necessarily like hot or cold environments, despite our ability to adapt to it. We’re pretty squishy without armor, our strength pales in comparison to the likes of orcs and minotaurs. Kane’s particular weaknesses does come from the fact that he <span class=""bb-i"">does</span> wear armor. Despite him moving very easily in full-on plated armor, it still slows him down, which would mean an unencumbered opponent can take advantage of that. Being skilled in all sorts of weapons makes finding a duel that is weighted in his adversary’s favor something of a challenge, and while he is exceptional using his sword and spear, he isn’t a master swordsman nor is he a master with a spear.

His biggest weaknesses have nothing to do with physical flaws, or flaws in his skill however - he excels in those areas, and he is also a strategist. The best thing to do is to take advantage of his character. This does often involve delving into unscrupulous territory, but it does get the job done. Kane, being naturally self-sacrificing and altruistic, will put himself on the line for others. Taking advantage of that will put him at risk at either injury or death, for instance, jumping in front of an arrow or trading the custody of an innocent with himself. Even in non-combat circumstances, this can be taken advantage of if you wish to take someone’s money within the law. 

Always wanting to see the good in everybody and believing most people are capable of redemption, that can be taken advantage of. But Kane does have an intuition for sensing motives, so if not of Kane, then his mercy, as it has given you another opportunity. You can definitely take advantage of the people around him since people tend to believe in his word. He also abides by honor and the code of chivalry. Work outside of that for an unfair advantage. The best way to combat him and undermine him is to target his allies. If you apply the pressure and don’t give him time to think or strategize, and demand quick decision making, he can either cave in to your requests/demands, or he may lose his clear head and become sloppy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Companion:</span> Kane has a shire horse as his steed; a tall, strong, dark brown shire horse with its signature white fur flaring around her hooves and a black mane. This tall and mighty horse is named Edna. Along with Edna, Kane is the captain of the elite G-2 “outcast” regiment of the Talborian guard, all of whom were once Knights of the Ram. He has 4 men under his command: Sten Vellen, Oscar Gene, Alexander Xerxes, and John March.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> With G-2 roaming about and garnering support and followers, Polaris is gonna have one hell of a time trying to conquer <span class=""bb-i"">anything.</span>

You're not going to get anywhere with that attitude, bruh. If you think your grammar sucks, then get better at it. There's plenty of sites that'll help you if you put the effort into it.

Nobody realizes this often enough, I swear to god. This. This is so, incredibly important. Characters perceive words and actions in different  ways because of their differing experiences, values, and beliefs. The fact that so many people don't intentionally make their characters misinterpret a phrase or action really makes it hard to get sucked into the setting.

I called every one of the burn centers on the wikipedia, they said that I had no burns and your attempt at spitting fire should be written down in the history books as one of the worst attempt at a comeback to ever place it's wretched and pathetic existence on this blue and green earth. It's mere presence alone has done more damage to the world's ozone layer than all the methane gas produced by all cows that have and will exist in history in one fell swoop because there has never been a comeback that shitty before and there will never be a comeback that shitty again.

If you think taking extra time wont get you fucked into the streets, you're delusional because you're just as if not more likely to get fucked into the streets. It's far more competitive these days than is was twenty years ago. At that time you didnt need a college degree to support a family. Now you do. Colleges, at least the good ones, are very picky about who they allow to attend. If you take a long time and dont do well on the exams at the end, they'll drop you like a sack of potatoes if you're making them look bad.

It's unfortunate but it's how life works.

If tumblr has taught me anything, it's that I shouldn't treat you any different. If you want to live a normal life you cannot expect us to treat you like you're different. Not if you want to be taken seriously. We empathize with your situation and we understand if it takes you time to post or need to go for a while, but that's about as far as any of us will go. None of us asked about your brother, or your depression, or whatever else you have that Im not mentioning. You announced them anyways. I dont bring up my problems to you guys because this is supposed to be a stress free environment. I'm not going to put my issues on you guys. Maxx, Leo, Allen, Septic, Jonny, Ink, DB, He Who Walks... None of us do that. Neither should you. So I'm asking you politely to not do that any more.</div>"

Depression is more of a void than it is ""feeling very sad"". With depression, there's no room for sadness. It's a lack of feeling, a sort of cold numbness. Given the inexplicable whirl of emotions you're feeling, I'm more inclined to think your emotions are more inclined to be interpreted as hormonal. It's a result of adolescence and is to be expected.

You can stay; just tone down the theatrics a bit. I'm personally not a big fan of the ""deliberate refusal to cooperate"" jokes exhibited on the last page, but that's just me and <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> cup of tea. I can't speak for anyone else here.

I also want to add that I, too, have suffered sexual abuse - but I offer no excuses.</div>"

Also, I think a few people here speak a lot of sense and if you truly consider what's been written I don't think anyone wants you to just leave the RP. If anything, looking over it seems as though they're trying to give you an alternate way to see things (which is a necessity in life IMHO) and it might not hurt to take a lesson from it.
I've already learned from this that I should stop being so paranoid and seeing bad in people, it's all person building at the end of the day :)

Edit; I've liked Leonerdo's post because I think that's the most important lesson to learn, sometimes life feels like it can get on top but you just need to beat that bitch into submission and get on with it because chances are the people you're thinking about having a moan to have problems equally as complex as yours.</div>"

But that's not the point of what I want to say here. Both Ink Blood and I are leaving this rp. He's given me the duty of telling you, Maxx, and everyone else. Really, the main reason we feel like leaving is because we feel excommunicated from the majority of the group. A lot of you are already friends and know each other really well, and while I myself can deal with that, Ink Blood's less socially inclined and we just feel left out on a lot of stuff. 

Plus, our motivation for keeping on has been declining rapidly. We've been left behind in the dust while thirty more posts have been made and its all been going too fast for our likings. I literally have no idea what to do and what's been going on, and its pretty hard to try and catch up. Its kind of like a big clique and we've not been invited to the party and WE JUST WANNA GET DRUNK BUT THERE'S NO BEER FOR US AN- You get the point. 

And all of the lately happening stuff with the drama and the down-hilling of everything has just killed it for us. I'll stay here and communicate, but expect the chances of me and Ink sticking on to be about 30%.</div>"

Honestly, there's so much stuff going on right now that I don't think I can keep a roleplay this big and extensive up anymore. That means that, unfortunately, I'm killing this roleplay. This isn't because I've gotten bored or something, because I love Tithe more than anything. I just have more important things going on in my life right now and I can't afford to let those things slip. I'm sorry if I've let any of you down, but this is how it has to be. <br/><br/>As of this moment, Under the Red Sun is dead, but it will return.

However, in Masalan terms she is still a child, and compared to a human she is physically 16.  A somewhat underdeveloped 16.</li><li>Appearance: <a href=""http://moerin-satsuki.deviantart.com/art/Jolokia-Anaheim-483281000"">Whee~</a> She's a bit short, being only just over five foot tall. <a href=""http://azumibird.deviantart.com/art/PC-Moerin-Satsuki-501015205"">Mugshot by a better artist than me!</a></li><li>Personality: To put it simply, Jolokia is kind of dumb.  She is as gullible and naive as an innocent child, and her almost perpetual gormless smile does nothing to dispel this image.  In social situations she is rather hyperactive and babbles on a lot about random topics, especially swords.  She likes swords.  She <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> likes swords.  And she is very, <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> good with swords.  Whilst an airheaded goofball most of the time, once she enters battle Jolokia is a cool and composed figure, analysing her opponents as she waits to make swift, decisive strikes.  The change can be quite jarring, really.  Swordplay is her life, and she is constantly trying to improve herself; there is nothing Jolokia loves more than meeting a strong opponent to test her skills on, aside from maybe a shiny new sword.  Despite her love of combat, Jolokia is no bloodthirsty monster; she is staunchly good at heart, and the one way to get her angry is to abuse and mistreat good people, especially her friends.</li><li>Favourite Colour(s): Silver, for it is the colour of swords of steel!</li><li>Favourite Food(s): Meat.  It doesn't matter what the dish is, Jolokia loves meat.</li><li>Hobbies: Swords, swordery and swordplay, although she's also very fond of food and cooking too.  It can come as quite a suprise to many that she's actually a rather skilled cook despite her empty-headedness.</li><li>Weapons: Jolokia carries with her a mildly enchanted sword (which solely makes it a bit more durable than a mundane one) she recieved from her old master.  Being Jolokia, she has given it the rather silly name of ""Mr. Bungle"".</li><li>Powers/Abilities: Jolokia is a highly skilled swordswoman, practicing a style that emphasizes swift strikes and almost blinding speed.  Whilst there is considerable power behind her strikes (she is somewhat stronger than her slight frame would suggest), speed is far more important to her style; she forgoes armour as it would just encumber and slow her down, although her natural durability helps make up for this a little bit.  Other than her swordsmanship, her only other notable skill is her cooking.  She is a surprisingly accomplished cook despite how dense she is, really.</li><li>Biography: Jolokia is a Masalan, a race who are rumoured to be descended from demons and other magical beings, resulting in their pointed ears and mildly pronounced canine teeth. Growing up in rural Alvera, she never really wanted to be a rancher like her parents were, and so as soon as she could she bid them farewell and left to achieve her dream of becoming the world's greatest swordswoman!  ...Really, the only things of note about her past are that she was taken in by a great swordmaster who taught her the ways of the blade, and is currently off on a journey to apply her training and improve her skills.  She's... A very simple person with simple goals and a simple background, really.</li></ul></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2010/141/b/b/Light_Sorceress_by_sketcher2007.jpg""/></div></div>

She is about 5'8”, 172cm

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Amelia has a great impulse for survival ever since she was a little girl. Not only that, but she also has a large craving for food which often leads into comical interactions. Her table manners are not really that great, she will belch, eat with her hands and even talk with her mouth full. She will challenge people to a food eating contest and always win, there has not been a single person to beat her in this sport. A very energetic girl she is, rather impatient too which makes her tasks pretty difficult to accomplish. She is very cheerful towards others and considers them a friend right off the bat, when she  gives you a hug you better check your pockets. Although she has a habit of being a sneaky little thief, she does not mean anything by it as she always has a 'reason' for her actions, sometimes true, sometimes false. The innocent smile on her face will convince you otherwise. In the daytime, if she becomes really happy then her body will glow, why this happens is beyond her control.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Colour(s):</span> Teal and Pink 

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Food(s):</span> Everything on the menu, there is no food that she dislikes. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> Eating food, drinking, stealing, and lock picking. She also has the skills for proper outdoor survival, with the exception of navigation, she often gets lost.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> A small dagger that she received from her guild and smoke bombs she keeps in her pouch.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> Aside from using small daggers, the agility and ability to stealth her way into a vault room, Amelia has the power of solar manipulation. Which pretty much turns her into a daytime thief because of the fact her powers do not work at night or any absence of the sun's rays for that matter. The majority of her powers come from the sun itself, which she can use its energy to light herself into flames, create powerful solar beams depending on how much time she charges the energy for it, or even make herself into a flash bomb that would blind her opponents temporarily. It is possible for her to fly by using the flames as thrusters, but if the sun is blocked for whatever reason then it is most likely she will fall to her death or at least receive critical injuries. 

There is a technique she uses to protect herself from her own flames, and that is by covering parts of her body in a thin sheet of solar energy that absorbs the heat from the flames thus protecting her own body, the same cannot be said for her opponent though. When she covers her entire body in this thin sheet of energy, it acts like her shield to protect her from incoming attacks, but it's not impenetrable. In fact, you can still physically hit her, but you would receive burns as if you were touching a frying pan that just came off the stove. The problem is getting close, as her body will emit a bright light shining like the sun itself.

On a unrelated note, she has a bottomless pit of a stomach with the ability to keep her figure intact. Used for comical purposes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Amelia was born into the lowest part of the social pyramid where she was often told there was no hope by everyone around her. The only one who ever gave Amelia hope, was her mother, who took care of little Amelia alone. Even though she barely had any clothes, food, or even a proper place to live, she continued to smile and looked at the bright side of things. She spent her childhood befriending with other kids like her and playing games. Around age eleven, her mother fell ill and died which crushed little Amelia's heart. The group of kids she played made a pact to ensure their own survival, this somewhat filled the void inside Amelia's heart. However, on one of their scavenging days, she was accidentally taken away on a carriage that she was stealing on her own. To avoid detection, she hid inside a crate until the carriage stopped at the next destination which would mark the beginning of her new life. It turned out that she arrived at a thieves guild where she was eventually caught trying to sneak around the base. The thieves were so impressed by her skills at such a young age that they allowed her to join the guild at age thirteen. Amelia did not expect the thieves to treat her with such hospitality that it made her feel like for the first time in her life that she had a family again. Her time with the guild was probably the happiest time in her life, but she always kept her friends in mind wondering what has become of them ever since her disappearance. She was unable to go alone without permission from a superior, plus she was moved around a lot to strengthen the other branches. By age seventeen, she had a high enough rank to go on her own and establish a branch of her own. She took advantage of this benefit to go back home and check out what happened to it. It's a real shame really, she would have made it back home in less than a year with proper navigation skills...and if she knew the name of her own city.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Twenty-eight


<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Ft3HY1b.jpg""/></div></div>
Brugo's veins run thick with the mixed blood of his giant ancestry, his powerful, muscular frame standing at 10'6"" tall, weighing 623lbs. His skin is dark and tough, his hair ashen-white. His eyes have black sclera and glowing gold irises. He often adorns himself with several pieces of simple jewelry. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Brugo is a bit of a wallflower, preferring to hang back and watch quietly due to a worry that people will judge or ignore him. Naturally calm, he is slow to anger, and even slower to rise to violence, out a concern that he may seriously injure somebody due to his size and strength. Something of a gentle giant, Brugo can still become incredibly dangerous when he is finally provoked enough to do somebody harm. He is very protective of those weaker than him, his allies, and those who he looks up to. He is sensitive about his appearance, but hides it as best as he can. He is extremely loyal and understanding, and will always try to reason things out and calm others frustrations. He is very adaptable to harsh environments, and can take a lot of punishment before getting upset. He never gives up, no matter what, and would do anything to protect those he cares about.
<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Colour(s)</span>: Sky blue.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> He is very good at wood carving, and frequently whiles away his unoccupied hours whittling away at a block of wood. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> He fights with empty hands and improvised weapons, relying on his natural physical gifts on the rare occasion that he does enter a fight, since few weapons can stand up to the rigors of his usage. He wears simple metal gauntlets and bracers to protect his hands from harm while fighting. As a soldier, he is martially trained, and has very well-developed technique. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> Brugo's great size and physical strength give him an advantage at performing physical tasks. His thick skin and dense muscles make him very durable, and hard to tire. He can see perfectly, even in the dark, and has above average senses of hearing and smell. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Brugo had an extremely difficult childhood. As a half-giant, he was constantly teased and bullied for his appearance, Brugo could never retaliate or fight back without hurting the other children. He was ostracized by everybody but his immediate family. His father, a warrior, was constantly pushing Brugo to follow in his footsteps, frequently taking him away on long trips for combat training and practice. A gentle soul, Brugo hated every minute of it, and could tell that he was a constant source of disappointment to his father. His adoptive mother seemed to understand Brugo’s difficulties, and was always kind to him, and so the two of them were very close.

His full-human brother, Scotius often seemed to resent the attention that Brugo got from their parents, despite the fact that he didn’t really want it, and would often feel jealous of his brother, who was able to fit in much more easily. The two were often at odds with one another, but Brugo secretly thought of his brother as a role model, wishing that he could be more like him, calm, capable, talented. Because of this, Brugo would often retaliate in kind when his brother would pull age on him, being equally difficult to deal with. 

When their father died, Brugo was deeply upset. He knew that his father still considered him a failure for wasting his strength and not joining the army. His brother, he knew, was deeply grieved too, locking himself in his room for days on end, after which he ran away from home. 

Sometime later, an emissary from the king arrived, asking Brugo to join the army. At first, he refused, but when he heard that his brother had joined, he immediately changed his answer. He would prove to his father that he was not a failure. He would protect his older brother, and the whole Kingdom at the same time. He never shared his reasons for joining and when he did, acted surprised to find his brother there. When Scotius complained to try and have him removed, Brugo resisted stubbornly, determined to follow through. 

Though the two rarely speak, and are often cold to each other, deep down he loves his brother very much.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song:</span> <a href=""#"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSjRggiSBrU</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 30  

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
<img src=""http://media.animevice.com/uploads/1/12218/403061-nurarihyon_no_mago_episode_21__3_.png""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> A Bo staff of rattan wood, a gift from his late master, Shaiden Ginji, has served as a loyal companion to Radley over his five years as a travelling hermit, serving equally well as a cane to aid walking as it did to defend himself from optimistic predators or highwaymen; never did they expect it to be wielded with such expertise. Knowledgeable of many arts regarding the staff, Radley can adapt to his foe, but most generally encompass dazzling displays of spinning and flowing blows, favouring fast, precise strikes, and sometimes even just impressive feats designed to intimidate before it is even necessary to resort to violence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities: 
Chi Augmentation:</span>
Through concentration, Radley can harness his spiritual energy, his chi, to augment his physical and mental capabilities. He can keep this up for close to an hour, though he would have to rest for twice a long afterwards to regain his strength, and would be significantly weakened during this period. During the augmentation, Radley’s eyes turn an iridescent blue. 

Typically, Radley possesses a fair amount of strength for his build, as he exercises regularly practising with his staff and fists. With the use of his spiritual energy, he is capable of augmenting his strength to incredible levels, and of augmenting his speed, so that he can reach roughly thrice the speed he normally achievable by sprinting full out, though this cannot be maintained for long. However, he can fortify his stamina, and run tirelessly at a slower pace, which drains him less. The tissues of Radley’s body can also be hardened. While still vulnerable to physical injury, Radley is able to use his spiritual energy to augment his durability, so that he is able to withstand blunt forces or glancing blows from swords, though a strong enough blow could still break his bones and a sword or spear could cut or impale him if the strike is direct. 

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">[Locked]</font>
Chi Channelling:</span>
By summoning his chi and focusing it into his hand or staff, he can make both extremely strong and resistant to damage, and pain in the case of his hand, and strike using either with far greater force than otherwise possible. This technique is simply a psychic channelling of concentrated natural energy, so it requires a calm mind and time. There is a visual indicator of this channelling, as his staff or hand will begin to glow blue, and then seem to burst into a heatless blue flame.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
Radley Oerheart was the son of a one Lord Cumberdale Oerheart, a profitable salt merchant he came into his fortune through hard work and no small amount of luck, monopolising business in the Western port city of Caerhern, which his manor overlooks. He is renowned for being a cold man, as sharp as a flint; with a cutting edge, he would just as readily shave your neck with, as he would slit your throat, so long as it benefitted him. Perhaps something he was equally renowned for as his debauchery was his lechery; men feared to let their wives near him, as he was undeniably a handsome man, with money, who also happened to ooze charisma: an envy-invoking trifecta. Even more so when he did not attempt to hide the fact that he was a serial adulterer, not even his first wife. She committed suicide, not out of spite or jealousy, but for fear of what might happen to her if she tried to run of, or, heavens forbid, asked Lord Cumberdale to leave.

However, before she killed herself, she handed her newborn baby boy to a travelling scholar, asking him to take him far away, paying him with a hefty purse of silver, but it may not have been necessary; the sheer maternal fear in the woman’s eyes meant that he could hardly refuse. Cumberdale was outraged when he found out that his only legitimate song was missing, odd, considering the number, he no doubt had in the city under another man’s unknowing protection. The scholar, well versed in eastern geography, knew a place where the babe would be safe, and took him many miles to seek sanctuary in a Temple, belonging to the Bugwa Monks. They took the child in when the scholar asked, not wanting or needing an explanation.

And so that it where Radley Oerheart spent his youth. He was different to the other children who were there, even though there were very few; his eyes were wider and closer to circles than their narrow slits, and his skin was paler. These differences meant that he was shunned and picked, as is the petty and sometimes cruel nature of children. Radley withdrew into himself slightly, not trying to make friends, and sometimes even actively avoiding new faces. The teachers, who taught the children how to read and write, thought he was merely being petulant and acting up when he would not read a word or answer a question. 

In his late childhood, different teachers taught them how to fight, with bare fists and various weapons, and about the spirituality behind this art. Radley was able to actively engage in this, enjoy the sparing sessions, even though he was sometimes scolded for being too rough. Having no friends, this practise consumed most of his time, when he was not doing chores around the temple, and soon he became a prominent student, if not the best, and Radley became proud of himself and his achievements.

But pride comes before the fall, and one day, after enduring numerous harsh whispers behind his back, but purposefully loud enough to here, and “accidental” blows during movement exercises, Radley broke, and took it out on his teacher, asking why what they were doing was so repetitive. The teacher was unnervingly calm at this outburst, and said it was to learn the forms entirely, in muscles and not just mind. Radley insisted that he had, and challenged the teacher to a duel, saying that if he won, he would be taught something new, and if he lost, he would do as the teacher instructed. The teacher obliged, and they duelled with wooden swords, and Radley won the duel, to the shock of everyone present; at times he seemed to be a blur, and there was a glint in his eyes that might have just been a trick of the light. 

The teacher, having agreed to the bargain, kept his part, instructing him to go to Shaiden Ginji and ask for his tutorage. Radley did, though he had his doubts, as the man was very old, with a crooked back and deep wrinkles. When he asked Shaiden, the old man asked to duel him. Radley hardly though it a fair fight, and it wasn’t, not for Radley at least; the old man used a staff that meant Radley could never get close with his wooden sword, getting swept, jabbed and redirected without even raising a defence. Radley was so shocked at his defeat, and at the skill of the old man, that he begged him to teach him, vouching to abandon the sword, which he had believed to be the king of weapons, and follow the way of the staff. The old man agreed, and told him the story of Jearom; He was considered the best swordsman to have ever lived, and it was said he fought over 10,000 times in battle and single combat. He only lost once, and it was to a lowly farmer with a quarterstaff.

Radley spent the next ten years under Shaiden’s tutelage, during which he became a far calmer and reserved person. At the end of this period, Shaiden gave him his staff, and said there was no more he could be taught, so Radley should travel the world, and discover what lessons it had in store for him. He travelled over the next five years, his trail taking him across three continents, with many nights spent under the stars in a humble camp. Over this time, he amounted a small amount of money, but had very little desire for expensive things, only travelling into towns to spend it when he could find not prey with his bow he had purchased near the start of his expedition, or if the weather was particularly nasty. 

After many years of travelling, helping those in need and learning all that he could, he found himself in Alvera, he heard rumours of a mist that could leave entire towns in ruins. Whilst not entirely believing this, he did not entirely dismiss it either, and began looking for answers.</div>"

Personality: Marcus is the type of person most people would describe as carefree and empty headed. He always seems to be able to get out of his responsibilities and would rather disappear and mediate or just relax in a tree somewhere in a hammock made from his wires. One of the few things that is able to hold his interest is a good looking person of the opposite gender and he can often be seen trying to impress them by showing off. He doesn't like to take anything seriously and never fights seriously either because he is actually afraid of what he can do when he uses his weapon and powers in combination and will only fight serious when he is sure that none of his friends are able to see him fight.

Favourite Colour(s): Aqua Blue 

Favourite Food(s): Enjoys most types of seafood.

Hobbies: Meditation, hitting on girls, having a good drink, being lazy.

Weapons: A spool of wire that is held in a holster on the small of his back with connections to two gloves which house wheels that control the speed at which the wire can be spooled out. The wire is constantly being kept in a damp state so that Marcus could use his ice powers on the wires. His gloves have talons on the fingertips that allow for the wire to not become tangled and also helps with close combat if he has to fight up close.

Powers/Abilities: Marcus has powers over water in his immediate area having the ability to solidify the liquid into ice that he is than able to use freely. He can bend the ice to his will allowing the ice to become his protection or it can be used as an offensive tool as well. He is skilled with the use of thin wire that can be released from his gloves and can be spread out to create webs for defense. 

Biography: Marcus was born into in a village hidden away in a mountain range where the power of ice is very common. Marcus grew up with a need to explore the rest of the world which was uncommon for the village as they did like to maintain their isolation hidden away in their village, but the real need for adventure came from his need to find warmer climates as he was never a fan of the cold in the mountains. He now travels around the land looking for a good adventure to join and some good looking females to chase after in the spare time.

(The weapon is similar to the one of Akame Ga Kill called Cross Tail.)</div>"

He is somewhere around 4ft and maybe shorter or slightly taller, he generally has blue hair which is strange and grey to blue eyes which seem to look right through people. He wears a strange piece of headwear to protect his ears. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> He is detached and other than his failed attempts at hiding emotion, he is a normal child who just happened to be related to the great evil in this world. With only Crusaders or so called Holy people able to tell his lineage this boy always expects that people hate him and will assume his done wrong under nearly all circumstances even when he is in the right. He occasionally loses interest in things and falls asleep as well as not seeming to pay attention under most circumstances. He is somewhat afraid of bugs, but mostly more annoyed then scared of them even though he finds him interesting, with this line it describes how he sees most things. He fears everything, finds everything to be a bother but in the end he still loves it all. His personality however will turn dark when he gets too scared or too annoyed with him turning into a selfish brat easily. He also does not like things crawling into his ears so wears some headwear sometimes when his sleeping to stop this

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Food(s):</span> Plain Sandwich

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> Taking naps and wandering around just looking at the scenery

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> He currently only has a small short sword his father gave him with the Cleave Ability, he can craft his own weapons but it takes a few minutes to do so and he can not carry too many weapons either. At most he will either have 1 heavy weapon or 2 light weapons on him at any given time. This does not include minor lightweight tools that are small like his hands, does not include daggers but refers to items such as a small rock, a bag of dust, a pouch of coins etc...
Currently wears a hidden chest plate covering his heart area in general in order to protect him from stabs to the chest, he can still be hurt since it merely directs it away from the heart and does not prevent it from stabbing right through him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> 
Longevity (It may be a miracle or a witch's curse, but this child does not age and can live without anything for a long period of time)

Sleep Recovery (Sleeping lets him recover from non-fatal wounds or diseases, but any fatal, severe wound or deadly disease will require medical attention or magical healing in order to recover)

Lodestone Crafting (Passed down from his adopted family he has the ability to craft unique weapons which have one of three enhanced abilities)

<span class=""bb-b"">Crafted Weapon Abilities</span>

Cleave : the weapon may attack further than its appeared range (used to deal with fast opponents or ranged attackers)
Rend : the weapon does more damage that its supposed to like a scratch becomes a cut and a cut becomes a slash (used for taking out tough beasts)
Shatter : the ability to break most solid objects besides good quality weapons or strong metal structures(used to break armor)

He is skilled in using a Halberd (Hammer Pike Spear type weapon) Hammers in general, swords and bows. 

He is not exceptional in either but is good with all of them. Can also craft other weapons if taught as well as basic armor as well, however he still needs to spend time gathering the materials unless he uses the Lodestone Craft which he can not use to often as it makes him fall asleep after and basically lets him craft by just having basic materials and converting them through a somewhat magical process which uses will power and imagination to create the weapon in the absence of the correct materials

He has very keen eyesight with exceptional hearing, but his body is actually frail and rather weak in general.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>The young boy who was born close to a hundred years ago under the light of a Broken Moon (in essence a bunch of trees blocked the moon so it looked broken) this child was born. He did not do much and he just so happened to have been born the day the evil knight had been defeated. However soon people had begun to find out that this was a child was no ordinary child as it was discovered his real mother was a witch of sorts who had served under Levado during the troubling times. Due to these circumstances the woman who had died gave her child away to a couple of people in a peaceful village before dying at the hands of the great Crusaders. 

His adoptive parents at that time were  members of the Lodestone Crafting family that had often worked hard at their craft . They raised the child as their own, even though he was exceptionally quiet and hard to understand they loved him anyways. He had a talent for taking up the crafting arts of his family due to possessing a good amount of unique energy used in the Lodestone Arts.

The Crusaders soon discovered the child's location after several years of searching and apparent murdering of any child who happened to be the same age as that child. They were still close to a day away from arriving in the town as the villagers kept away from the blacksmiths calling their weapons the Blades of Ruin and the Swords of Destruction having forgotten that the village lived off of the exploits of the smiths. The village was also given a message of a handsome reward if they handed over the child, while the villagers wished to give up the child the family stood firm and being the main source of the village's status the villagers could not just force them to give in to the demands.

As the little boys adoptive parents looked to the little boy who at the time was no more than ten years of age, they could not bare the thought of giving the child up to suffer for the sins of his parent's past with the Evil Knight. They felt an innocent child should not be given up as they prepared for him to leave packing in a backpack full of sandwiches, a small pouch filled with money and two bottles of water which he could barely carry. They told him they loved him and he did not show too much affection but he looked down sadly and said he loved them too which they thought was cute. 

As they were running out of time with the villagers having already barricaded the family in for the time when the crusaders would arrive. It was then that an assassin appeared, the boy did not look scared at all and the child's adoptive father drew his sword stopping the assassin at the last second holding him back. The villagers trapped them on the outside and an assassin kept his father from helping him to travel. The mother knew that it would be up to her, she took her best weapon she had ever crafted known as the Scythe of Revenance, each weapon had a name at the end and a secret name to draw out its potential. Using this she went outside and began breaking through the barricades as her child followed her not really understanding the situation itself. The Crusaders began to hurry on horseback as the woman found two horses just before they could leave her husband was sent flying out of the house with cuts all over his body, the boy did not cry but his eyes were watering as she felt him try to go to the aid of the man who raised him, she held his shoulder firm. 

He was resisting crying by instinct so to speak as he would tear up but would never let the tears flow, at least not in front of people who were strangers. It was then that the crusaders arrived in her moment of hesitation, her husband was defeated and the assassin though strong was injured having only his right arm left and having lost his left ear as well. The woman did not know what to do the assassin blocked the path to the barricade and the crusaders now blocked the escape path she had just broken through. The man known as the boy's father began to stand up laughing and then said, ""A sword is life, made from the heat of passion found in the heart of a furnace"". The man grabbed his sword and stabbed it into the ground as the area around the house and random locations around the village began exploding the villagers fled but the crusaders numbering close to over fifty had their target in their sights, but were in no hurry as they knew the child could be a fake so they did not want to waste too much effort as they slowly began to surround her. The man knew this display meant nothing to the trained knights who had been fighting against Levado all these years. 

The leader of the Crusaders finally spoke up and it was unclear what he said, but that day the woman and man fought bravely and the leader himself stabbed the boy in the chest. He left the sword there as the child was pinned to the ground, they were done with their mission but before they could retrieve the body the village began collapsing having taken too much damage in this battle, the crusaders retreated and the entire village vanished off the face of the earth

After close to ninety years with the child having been forgotten an archaeologist dug up and found the body of a child with a sword in his chest, taking out the sword the child was still alive. As he got to the hospital they found the child had luckily survived as the sword had been bent to stab short of his heart but how did a child survive being buried in the ground and as they were about to ask questions the child woke up not sure of where he was or what was going on as the people were confused and simply did not know what to do with their findings. 
With the child's future unclear and not much known, what could they hope to discover from this lucky child.</div>"

Personality:At first, Reina can come off as distant, but is very motherly and understanding when you warm up to her. She can be a facetious and a little sarcastic, but over all is very warm.

Powers/Abilities: Reina's partner is a soulless creature, called a shadow,  and not knowing what it is, it can take the basic shape of animals and creatures. It cannot shape shift multiple times in a day. Reina simply refers to it as ""Crow"" since the majority of the time this is the shape it retains. Reina also uses a basic spear for battle, at times being able to combine Crow with her spear.

Biography: As a youth Reina had basic, caring parents. She was especially close to her father  who was the original master of Crow. Her father passed away when Reina was 15, giving Crow to Reina. Reina became more rebellious and ended up becoming pregnant. However, her child died at birth. Reina then left the town she grew up in with Crow and became involved with voodoo magic, believing it could connect her with her dead baby. But magic could do nothing, but she still tries to this day. What used to be anger towards her past has become a resistant acceptance. She still struggles with her baby's death but never fails to show motherly love towards others.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Alaustriel 

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song:</span> <a href=""#"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTR-7y1GWbk&amp;list=PLB7C54A78B5EC3290</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 121
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/gbb4NFD.jpg"">Please don't call me a child...</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Alaustriel is a rather snarky individual with a very sharp tongue, which he doesn't hesitate to use or even hold back in the least. He's a bit on the reserved side and is a naturally cautious fellow that is more at ease when out in the wilds than when in more enclosed spaces and is often quite cool-headed in most situations simply because it takes quite a lot to get him worked up. He also has a hidden soft side for children and often joins in on their games due to his youthful appearance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Colour(s):</span> Leafy Green and Sunshine Yellow
<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Food(s):</span> Fried Rice 
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> Woodcarving, sculpting, engraving, cooking, camping, riding. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> Alaustriel carries on his person a longbow made from an Ironbark Tree (which as the name suggests is rather sturdy and hard) and a few trick arrows such as serrated ones to excaberate wounds or heavier ironcapped ones for armored foes at the cost of overall range. Also he carries a dagger and a short sword as well as an even dozen throwing knives made from a special hard ceramic that he commissioned from his previous adventures due to the fact that the ceramic does not rust.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> Alaustriel is an expert woodsman and tracker who can flit about woods with nary a sound while making use of all of nature's bounty that most people would not even think of even accessing, and is a master archer whose unerring arrows pack a lot more punch than his slight frame suggests- partially due to his access of low leveled life magics that strengthen the body's inherent characteristics and also healing abilities that lets him heal light wounds. Other than that, he's quite good at fending off people who gets too close through any versions of daggers/knives/short blades and an unorthodox kick based martial arts style that make use of his powerful legs. 

He also knows his way around cooking whether it be survival cooking made in the wilderness with a minimum of ingredients and tools at hand or proper fare made in the kitchen full of bountiful ingredients due to his picky tongue appetite being one of the few negative high elven traits he cannot rid himself of, as he loves good tasting food. As such, he knows quite a bit of information on just about anything edible and their effects having gone and tasted them all personally. As such he has poison resistance towards many plant based poisons due to ingesting trace amounts of the things to develop immunity to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>  Born in a high elf society and as head of a minor noble house, Alaustriel chafed under the stifling and often times stuffy society that was so dismissive of everything not their own culture. Eventually having enough of being cooped up, the young elf literally leaped out a window during a particularly off-putting tutoring lesson and discarded his finery and clan name to live a free life that he always wanted. Somewhere along his travels, the elf apprenticed under a ranger and became a wood elf in all but species. Now he goes about righting wrongs he finds with a brand of rather chaotic justice. And arrows.</div>"

Theme Song: 
Gender: Female
Age: OLDER THAN THE ABYSS OF TIME ITSELF(15) 
Appearance: <a href=""http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&amp;s=view&amp;id=1119361"">""Hah! I am the TRUE darkness of this world!""</a>
Personality: Destroyer of kingdoms! Slayer of kings! Kidnapper of fair maidens! All of these things are not at all an apt description of Amythest as much as she would like others to think they are. Amythest would just <span class=""bb-i"">love</span> to be seen as a terrible and cruel mistress of black magic who takes pleasure in the suffering of others. She styles herself as such, loudly proclaiming that she seeks to bring evil upon all mankind! ... And yet in action, she cannot ever bring herself to perform truly evil acts. No, in spite of her claims, Amythest is not the evildoer she styles herself as. For every claim of being a heinous monster that she makes, Amythest has likely done something only mildly malevolent or even outright benevolent and kind. She claims she has never done anything helpful for anyone, but truthfully the girl simply is a much better person than she claims she is. She likes children and often has trouble keeping her villainous facade up around them, unless they're finding it entertaining. Amythest is full of confidence and pride in herself, and refuses to back down in the face of danger. Unless that danger is spiders. Amythest does not like spiders.
Favourite Colour(s): Blood red! Like the stains left behind by those who oppose her! Ahahaha! (Pink)
Favourite Food(s): The souls of her enemies! (Cheesecake)
Hobbies: Torturing the innocent! (Pressing flowers) Indulging in the spoils of conquest! (Collecting magical grimoires)
Weapons: Her channeling staff. That is all.
Powers/Abilities: Amythest is a black mage, utilizing primarily offensive spells. These spells are primarily fire-or-lightning-based, such as a bolt of lightning or a ball of fire. Amythest's most powerful spells, however, channel her mana as a beam or burst of purple energy. These spells can be highly hazardous to many organic targets. Amythest isn't very athletic and lacks physical skills, all her focus being on magic.
Biography: Amythest was born to an average family and had an average life. Averagely. Boringly. It was dull. Really way, way too dull. Amythest couldn't stand how boring she felt it was. Sure, she was learning magic, but she never got to do anything with it! That's when she hit upon the idea of becoming a traveler! But not just any traveler... a Dark Traveler! Yes, she would paint herself as the most evil and dark adventurer to cross the lands! ... And it became quite obvious that these claims were only words, as she simply could not actually do anything that evil. But still, she ventures across the lands and proclaims her evilness while doing nothing to back it up.</div>"

Powers/Abilities: 

Gift of the Demon- is a ability  that probably every full blood basic demon has. The ability to fly, move at incredible speeds, lift beyond the weight of an elephant and drain the life out mortal creatures.

The bad thing about this is that any item blessed by a priest or titled holy can easily make him powerless.

Biography: larz is probably on of the oldest living things to be recorded in history. He was titled as a myth since no one has actually lived long enough to give a full description of Larz. The Myth states that there were once kingdoms in hell and verious powerful rulers. Larz was one of them and ruled over the void a small dark dot that was basically corrupted and swallowed up by evil. Years later Lucifer defeats the kingdoms and rebuilds hell from the ground up. Lucky Larz build a barrier to separate hell and the void. The myth continues on by saying Larz finally lost all he had when Lucifer confronts him and rips the void to shreds. In his final moments he consumed the rest of the void and removed his body from the realm of hell. The Myth ends with Larz dying in the earthly realm while he actually went into hiding.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 13
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> (Picture shall come later)
Messy black hair and black eyes. Teatrino has pale skin and pale pink lips that accentuate her tired look. Short and thin for her age, she also has bandages with mantra's wrapped over the entirety of her right arm and leg and for the most part function normally and are solid underneath, however, if they are to somehow be removed, you'd find no flesh supporting the bandages - just air. Her staple attire is a simple ragged brown cloak and hood, and a travel bag. Everything else is simple cloth and a belt.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
Quiet, brooding and dislikes having to speak up. Tea is a very pragmatic and cautious person, and admittedly quite cold. Her current attitude is a coping mechanism she's developed over the years, and in truth, she's just the scared little girl she's supposed to be. When it comes to her goals, she is obsessive to the point where it becomes self-destructive, and despite all her caution, she sometimes forgets to factor in her own limits. Socially introverted and unskilled, Tea prefers to be left alone - if she has to speak at all, it will be for something important. She also has a strict moral code and all too often can only distinguish things as black and white, moreover she does not believe in forgiveness.

<span class=""bb-b"">Favorite Color(s):</span> White, Green, Blue, Brown

Demons and higher beings can be subjected to her power if they are careless. She can seal of not only physical objects like body parts stones, but intangible things like memory or magical power. She has two main methods of sealing: 

1. Sealing her target into a physical object. The better the affinity of the object to her target, the stronger the seal will be. She can of course, place overlapping seals on the chosen object to strengthen its restrictive power, but there is a limit to how much she can do, thus an object with good affinity is far better to use.

2. Sealing her object in a different dimension. Her seal can trap her targets in a 'sideways' dimension akin to a void. The benefit of this method is that unless she allows it, there is absolutely no way for anyone to break the seal and release her captured target - the downside to this is the amount of power it costs to use. For small things that are barely living, it requires not much energy, but for living things with magic resistance, the price to seal them using this method becomes considerably higher. She can increase her chances by somehow weakening her target.

Tea has various other sealing methods, but these two are the quickest and cheapest ones to activate.</div></div>

The problem with this is she cannot control those demons at all, and she loses her ability to use a limb by releasing one - which is especially troubling when she releases her right leg. Once she releases them, she needs to be able to reseal them in an ten or so minutes, or else her body begins to deteriorate as a price to their power.

<span class=""bb-b"">Demon of the Arm</span> - A large  7 meter tall reddish brown elephant-like demon with 23 eyes, seven long tusks and sharp thorns growing all over its body. It's legs don't end in stumps but are instead shaped like human hands. It can stand upright and even wield weapons, but generally just likes to ram and crush it's opponents. It is immune to most magic, can breath fire and due to its contract with Tea it is functionally immortal - which means it gets damaged, but will quickly return to full its strength.

<span class=""bb-b"">Demon of the Leg</span> - A purple demonic horse with no head, and on the area where it's neck is, a demonic pastel yellow-colored human face is placed. The face itself has eyes that are completely red in color all the way to the sclera, and its grin is filled with four rows of sharp teeth. Its body is made out of rotting human faces. It moves faster than the wind and wherever it passes, it spreads a smoke that inflicts poison, disease and sickness of a lethal level to whoever inhales it.</div></div>

As such, she was born with a massive amount of talent and power and no shortage of expectations. She didn't mind though - her parents were willing and able teachers, so even when she was young, she flourished and managed to make the most out of their education. It was repeatedly said that Teatrino would become the greatest magic user that the world would has ever seen! She believed it, her parents believed and practically anyone who has seen her study magic believed.

Unfortunately, the devils believed it as well.

Devils are creatures that corrupt and destroy; that is their very existence. Naturally, they were attracted to those who had the potential to help them wreak havoc on creation - this of course, included everyone that could use magic, after all, what better vessel of destruction could they wish for than the ones that danced with chaotic energies at their fingertips?

Still, devils cannot just up and possess people. There are rules involved that are more ancient than time itself. So they had to plan, to trick, to deceive. It was so, so easy. Parents bloated by their pride in their offspring, and the said offspring with so much power and pride to match it. They sent out a disease where she lived, with the intent of touching her, and addled the minds of the doctors so that they would all say the same thing:

<span class=""bb-i"">It was hopeless, she would die of the disease, she's already lost her arm and leg, they would have to be cut off. Give up.</span>

It was a moment of despair that struck especially deep, because it came so suddenly after their years of triumph. It was in this moment that theu revealed themselves. They made themselves sympathetic and weak looking - low-level devils that could be banished without a forethought. They offered a way to cure her, to give her back her limbs. It was a fine deal, after all, should they lie and go back to their word, they could easily be banished.

Humanity should remember why the saying 'deal with the devil' was made. 

The disease they were responsible for went away, naturally, but to heal her arm and leg, they possessed her body, and substituted devils as limbs, and no one could oppose them, because they had signed a contract with their souls on the line. They slowly began to possess her, and began using her body to kill everything around her. 

Their mission had succeeded. 

In desperation, Tea created an impromptu seal and destroyed her arm and leg in the process, and sealed the demons where they were. It was too late however; the damage had been done. There was nothing left for her to comeback to. For days, Tea staggered around the broken remnants of her home, wondering if she should kill herself. The answer she arrived at kept her alive, but also left her with a severe emptiness - she decided to wander, to keep the memory of everything she held close alive. She was dead, everyone else was living. That was what she decided. Moreover, she would make sure a repeat of her life would never happen again.

She studied alone and in isolation, training her use of seals vigorously, both as a way to keep her own demons in check, as well as to prepare for the future - at this point, she had promised herself to stop using any kind of magic except sealing. 

Three years have passed since then. Rumors have spread, and Tea has heard of them. It may or may not be devils behind the Mist, but there was evil there. She would see to it that it never again saw the light of day.</div></div></div></div>"

<div class=""bb-h2"">Starter Town</div>
The large town was bustling with life. The sky above was a cool blue, with the sun giving warmth and energy to the populace below.

Starter Town was a popular place for many tourists, travelers and warriors alike.

With many shops, restaurants and entertainment venues, it was no wonder that it was one of the most popular towns in the kingdom.

On this particular day however, there was a huge festival going on - a festival occupying nearly the entire town.

Food stands, entertainment shows in the streets and discount sales only added to the normal amount of energy that filled the streets.

Merchants, travelers, mercenaries, farmers and knights all went about their business, roaming through the streets; some darting to their destinations, while others strolled along carelessly.

People who would normally never be seen in the same area were standing in line near one another and even gave the occasional polite nod.

Overall, it was a day filled with excitement and a pleasant atmosphere.
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>

A young man was walking on the outskirts of the large town. As he approached one of the town's gates, he noted the guards that were posted there. Four guards in full armour and swords on their sides.

The young man was carrying a sword of his own. He also had a bag with him to hold his various items and supplies while he was traveling.

After speaking with the guards and telling them what region he was from, the young man made his way into the town.

Darting excitedly from food stall to food stall, the green hair of a young looking swordswoman bobbed back and forth as her coin purse became emptier and emptier.  Festivals were really the best!  There were always so much fun things going on, and the food was amazing!  As she gorged herself on some foreign delicacy she couldn't pronounce the name of, the young Masalan warrior Jolokia wondered what to try next.

""Ah, it's all so good!"" she happily thought aloud, licking her fingers clean.  It really did taste amazing, and she wasn't going to waste one drop.  ""And there's still so much more to try!  What next, what next... Oooh, that smells <span class=""bb-i"">amazing!</span>""

Bounding towards a nearby stall, Jolokia's eyes were transfixed by a chef cooking some kind of barbecue dish she'd never had, or more specifically by what he held in his hands.

""W-wow!  I didn't know you could cook with swords!  That's so amazing!  Aren't swords amazing?  They're the coolest thing ever!  Want to see my swo-""

""Y'gonna order somethin' or just babble 'bout swords all day, missy?"" The barbecue chef laughed heartily, running the blade of one sword along that of the other, making a satisfying <span class=""bb-i"">SCHNNNNG</span> noise.

""...Oh right!  Right, right, um... Let's see, um, um..."" The young Masalan reached for her coin purse... And to her dismay found only a few small coins left, not nearly enough to buy even the cheapest dish on the menu.  ""...Waaaah!  Noooo!  This is the greatest tragedy in all history!  And it smelled so good too... No sword barbecue for poor Jolokia...""

Slumping off dispondently, Jolokia wondered if there was any way to make more money.  She <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> wanted to try the sword barbecue!</div>"

Small steps, soft steps, silent steps stepping silently softly as the small boy makes his way through the crowd. A group of peal barge through making a small commotion as they start to speak out loud. ""Anyone seen a little kid wondering around here?"" as the group of four archaeologist's asked around only to find that there were street children everywhere as they began to complain amongst themselves as the townspeople looked at the four men strangely.

Meanwhile moving between stalls the little boy was hungry, he had not eaten in so long and these strange guys just found him. He was not sure what was going on as he wondered where his parents were and why everything looked so different. He could not recognise anything as he walked around finally noticing a stall with several fruit as he just took an apple and started eating as a lady looked to the boy with a glare and asked. ""Are you going to pay for that?"", the boy paused for a moment having taken only a single bite as he put the apple back down and shook his head. The woman was about to get furious when a man passing by just placed a gold coin on the table and said, ""I will pay for this, so do not worry young lady"", as the man turned to see the boy's reaction as he was hoping to show off the boy was gone with the apple as well. 

Things were peaceful as the boy just walked between all the people who were too busy with what seemed to be a festival to notice him, as the researching archaeologist's tried their best to find the small boy as there was no way for them to track him down right now. They had not thought of what to do with the boy and having only really treated his wounds they never got down to giving him proper cleaning or clothing so he pretty much appeared like all the other street kids with brown hair due to how dirty his hair had been from all the rubble it got and some dust as well. His clothes were tattered and torn with only the wound that was fixed being somewhat cleansed to prevent infection. 

Meanwhile the small boy had finished his apple as he threw the left overs away, he had grown up in a small little village so he did not really get what was going on around him. He then finally noticed something he could recognise and saw a sword, he stood in front of this stall which had a man making some strange meat with his sword. He had never seen a barbeque before and to be honest was not sure what the man was doing as he just wanted to eat the food. He then looked to the side and then as he looked back up there was some strange girl with green hair who spoke as he could barely understand what the man was saying and part of what the girl said. The man said something about order and the girl was searching her pouch for something. She was going on all of a sudden about it being a tragedy that the sword barbeque, as he paused now more interested in her as he was more interested in this new word he never heard before called barbeque, he had read nearly every book in his parents library and never once did he find this word. Was she a foreigner or maybe she was some strange creature since her hair was green, not that his own hair colour was strange if anyone got to see it clean. 

He then suddenly felt hungry and reached out for the meat only to burn his hand as the man looked his way he got a bit scared and looking around not sure which way to go just remembered the green hair and followed the strange barbeque girl slowly and closely behind her with soft silent small steps</div>"
16612,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-03 22:28:00,jdh97,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Radley</span>
On the high slopes of the Ryu Mountain range a savage wind blew. It whipped at Radley’s face, reddening his bare skin with its vicious chill, and, from the corners of his half-open eyes, streaks of tears ran to his hairline. One fist was clamped tightly around the brim of his sugegasa, the conical straw hat that sat upon his head, as the silk ribbon that normally held it adequately was fraying in the wind, and would not doubt have snapped under the force of a particularly strong gust. The hat was tilted slightly forward, in an attempt to further shield his eyes. 

It had not been this bad when he started up the mountain pass, but Radley knew the risks taking this route during the early spring; its weather was temperamental at best. Weighing this against cutting at least a week of his travels times had led to Radley deciding it was worth it, which in turn, led to his current predicament. As if to spite him, a solitary figure on the mountainside, the weather took a turn for the worse, and he had to spend two days in a cave eating cured rabbit flesh around a meagre fire whilst waiting for the lashing hailstorm to clear. He had deemed it safe for travel on the third morning, and found that the wind was still as vehement as ever, but it was bearable. 

In his other hand, Radley held his trusty staff, an old friend, who seemed to be an extension of his very body, which he currently used to traverse a section of loose shingles, with boulders jutting up sporadically from it. It was tricky; even with Radley’s quickstep and light footfalls it began to slide down, and the wind seemed to wish to throw him of balance all the while, forcing him to break into almost a run, until he reached the solace solid of ground.

As he crested the final rise, he was greeted with a downwards slope and a magnificent view; the weather had since cleared up and offered a flawless azure backdrop to the expansive landscape, rolling hills and dense woodlands. He could also see a colourful gem on the horizon, the colloquially coined Starter Town, closer to a small city than a town with all the commerce and foreign embassy it saw. 

Back in Bjorfrost, a northern frontier town whose mayor was indebted to Radley, the monk had heard rumours of a coming festival in the South, housed in the town he saw before him. Even that far north the people were excited, and there seemed to be a frantic dash to catch as many Knuckledhead from the icy lakes as possible, and carve trinkets from their sought-after, oversized skulls, which fetched a pretty penny on the southern market. The day Radley had left, the fishing trawlers were out in swarms, practically covering the lake, and it would have been a miracle in no fighting occurred due to disputes over catches. With a sparked curiosity, he had decided it was time to move on, and what better place to go than this renowned festival, and see first-hand if it was worth all the fuss. 

He adjusted the pack on his back, and with his spirits raised from the sighting of the town, Radley made good pace down the shallow climb of the mountain pass, and soon trees started passing him as he descended into lands more hospitable. He was headed for the River Aern, which ran straight through Starter Town, and would take him the rest of his journey without much concern for navigation, allowing each footfall to come gaily as his mind wandered and he soaked in the warm sunshine. Once he was alongside the river, which swathed its way through land quickly becoming wooded, he was treated to the merry twitter of birdsong too. The river was illustrious in the sunlight, like liquid diamond flowing free. When Radley rested at noon whilst the Sun passed its zenith, the water did not disappoint; each mouthful was revitalising and so cold it felt like it was cutting your mouth, and it washed away the residual saltiness of the cured meat with welcome efficiency. 

Onwards Radley trudged, his boots crunching in the wet sediment of the riverside, his staff offering stability and an extra driving force. He was making good pace, but knew he would not make the town in time; he had only just reached one of the winding dirt tracks that had been trodden in by numerous travellers and trading caravans. He followed this path for close to an hour, only seeing a single rider pass him in this time.

The sky was beginning to stain vermillion with the setting sun, and blue strips of cloud hung in wait of the coming night. Radley turned off the path before reaching the main cobblestone road that ran from Starter Town to New Harbour, and into the woodland running parallel to it. It sloped downwards, forcing Radley to lift his staff up on the ground and trot down so he didn’t fall face-first, and likely spill the contents of his pack. 

As the Sun touched the horizon, Radley had found a suitable place to camp: a ring-copse of trees, not too far from a road in the hopes wild animals kept away, which he could sling his hide covering between for shelter. In the ring made by the trees there were also several boulders, one of which he used to semi-shelter his fire, from the elements, and any unsavoury eyes, and another he slung his burden over, sitting on the only remaining, and also flattest, moss-covered stone. He yanked of his boots, after unbuckling them, and stretched, wriggling his toes, the nip in the air a welcome change from the sweltering atmosphere of his boots. His arms reached far above his head, his back cracked audibly once, and he let of a yawn.

The camp was easily set up; the covering, a mesh of sewn together animal hides, acted almost like a tent when slung between the branches of three trees, and retained much of the heat from the fire. Radley then went about skinning the three rabbits he had caught and not eat eaten on his journey, intending to feast upon one now, and quickly cure the other two overnight. 

The sun was now a semi-circle of blazing fire, dropping slowly into the ground on the horizon.</div>"

Sotaru had been on a two day journey before arriving here in Starter Town. This was his first time adventuring away from his town and he was pretty excited.

However, right now he was focused on other things. Mainly that he was exhausted and really needed something to drink.

Walking through the busy streets, he made his way to a large plaza. There was a water fountain in the middle of it, and he went to sit down at the edge of the fountain. Relaxing and taking some breaths, he looked around at the many people going about.

<span class=""bb-i"">This place is really nice. It's never this busy back home.</span> 

Sotaru's town was much more quiet and peaceful than here.

Eventually he saw a green haired girl near a food stand. After talking there for a while, she began to walk away.

<span class=""bb-i"">Lots of interesting people here. I need to restock my supplies and purchase a new map. But first I really need to get some food.</span>

Thinking that it might be nice to try to talk with one of the locals, Sotaru got up and walked toward the green haired swordswoman. ""Hey!"" he waved, finally catching up. ""You live around here? I just got to town recently, I'm trying to find my way around. Do you know anywhere I can get some good food?""</div>"
16614,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-04 02:31:00,MonkeyBusiness,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">High in the trees of the forest outside of Starter Town was a giant web spanning four different trees made up of a thin steel wire that was only seen as it caught the light of the sun high overhead. In the middle of the web laid a young man in his early twenties who seemed to be sleeping unaware of his surroundings as he rolled over into a gap in the web and fell out. Marcus woke up with one of his arms above him as he hung from the web as the wires were connected to his fingertips, he flicked his pinky finger which engaged the wheel integrated into the top of his glove which pulled him back up to the web as the wire slack was reeled in. 

When he reached the web again he sat down cross legged in the middle and held out one of his gloved hands palm up and concentrated on the center. Hovering over his palm two small ice orbs formed from the moister in the air before starting to rotate around themselves over his palm as he started to meditate on the motion of the orbs. He remained in the pose for most of the afternoon with his eyes closed and actually at one point did fall back asleep only to be woken up by a growling stomach which reminded him that he hadn't eaten all day. Marcus grabbed one of the orbs in his clawed fingers as he watched it melt back into water before getting up from his spot and jumping over to the closest branch that was big enough to hold his weight before holding out his right hand and activating the wheel to reel in all the wires that made up the web. 

As the sun started to head toward the horizon, Marcus jumped down from the tree and started to walk through the forest at his own pace as he listened for any sounds that could give away where food could be hiding. After a few minutes he saw a fire in a small clearing causing him to slow down as he approached quietly before sending out some wire to pull him into the trees so he could approach from above in the tree branches. He saw a man setting up camp in the clearing and was currently preparing a few rabbits for food which made Marcus' mouth water slightly. He fixed his cloak so that it covered his spool of wire on his back before sitting down on one of the branches that overlooked the clearing. ""Hey there. I don't suppose you would be willing to share some of that rabbit? I do have some money if I could buy it off of you."" He hoped that the older looking guy was friendly and would allow him to buy some of the rabbit since he was to lazy to head into town and find some food.</div>"

""WAHAHAHAHA~""

The dark queen of all black magic slammed the tip of her staff down onto the cobblestone! With a triumphant laugh, she ran her free hand through her long, pink hair! Yes, beautiful <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> deadly! Swiftly it moved to her hip, and she gave the entire town a malevolent grin! Yes, Amythest Malachite, the darkest villain to ever taint the lands with her evil presence, had arrived! Soon these foolish mortals would know true fear! Soon they would suffer under her iron fist of cruel tyranny and tyrannical cruelty! Clearly her throat and flashing a malevolent grin to the crowd before her, she began to speak in the most threatening tone she could possibly muster!

""Greetings, foolish mortals of Starter Town!"" she declared, pausing for a moment as she contemplated what a ridiculous name 'Starter Town' was. Seriously? Well, she'd rename it something fitting and evil when she... totally conquered it because that was exactly what she would do! ""I am Amythest Malachite, MISTRESS OF THAT HEARTLESS MAGIC THE WORLD CALLS BLACK, WAHAHAHAHA~""

She paused to let the terror sink in for a moment, before closing her eyes softly and resuming her declaration of power and evil! ""Now, I know you may all be terrified, and rightly so! But if you surrender to my dark might, you shall all be spared the greater part of the agonies I can inflict! Be forewarned, however, as any who resist me will suffer all the tortures of he-... E-eh...?""

Amythest trailed off as she opened her eyes and realized that, as opposed to cowering in fear, the populace of the town was proceeding along as if she wasn't there. Faltering, she hopped off of her position near the center of the boulevard and waved her fee hand in the air. ""H-hey, black witch and all? Mistress of Evil? U-um... I'm right here you know!""

No-one was scared at all, what the hell?!</div>"
16616,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-04 22:18:00,jdh97,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Radley whirled about with terrifying speed, snatching up his staff from its resting place against a rock, and settling back into a defensive stance, staff poised, in a single fluid motion. There was a brief moment of confusion, before his brain caught up and worked out where the voice had come from. Up. The rabbits had been sizzling in their fats upon his iron skillet over the fire, and Radley was too travel-worn to have kept his guard up and consequently he was caught unawares. 

He gazed up at the branch of the tree, on which sat a slender man with hair the colour of slate. Radley shielded his eyes with one hand; he had taken off his hat and his raven-wing locks writhed in the slight breeze. The free hand lowered the tip of the staff to the ground as Radley had recovered from the initial shock, and saw that this man meant no harm, announcing his presence in the way he had. The man was likely just another fellow traveller, and hungry, judging from his offer to buy a rabbit. Still, it was rather odd that he perched himself on the branch of a tree, like some wood-elf or forest nymph from stories and song. 

Yet, even with his staff lowered, Radley still kept it in his hands; whilst he didn’t suspect anything of ill ilk from the man, he didn’t put it past a cunning thief. Starter Town was a good place, and a fine city, but there is as price to be paid for all good places, and a price all good places have to pay. No small amount of wealth flowed through the city, and that attracted covetous and greedy eyes, some with hearts black to match. 

“Spare your coin,” Radley began, the words coming painfully, and somewhat alien, from his chapped, unused lips. “I wish only for you to pay me in good company and conversation after a long and hard journey, that I might find some comfort on the road, and perhaps even a new friend.”

He gestured with his head, pointing it towards the fire, before he returned to sit on his rock, shaking the skillet, to which the flowing juices hissed in response. It was a small price to pay for a creature comfort such as a guest; the meat was not that expensive, and he could buy plenty more from the city, both rations and good meals. The pelts on the other hand… the pristine white fur of his Mountain Rabbits, sometimes called Hill Hare by the Southerners, was highly sought after for gloves boots, and various other such fashion accessories, as the coat was thick and soft, and a white coat was rare among the species, and therefore valuable.

Lifting the skillet away from the heat, Radley lifted a whole Rabbit with a gloved hand and offered it in the direction of the newcomer with an outstretched hand. It would no doubt be hot, but food was food, and it would cool down quickly enough.

“Sorry, I don’t carry much in the way of plates,” Radley explained; he had never really needed them, as he always used the skillet and ate his food straight from it, “I hope that doesn’t stop you from giving me your name.”</div>"
16617,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-04 23:17:00,Water Akira,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Deep in the forest, there was a group of horse-drawn carriages and people walking on foot.

The two horse-drawn carriages squeaked along, as it headed in the direction of the large town. It would still be some time before they arrived there.

Walking beside the vehicles, were eight men in dark cloaks. They walked in two lines, four on each side. There was a woman walking amongst them as well, a young woman dressed in the common wear of a townsperson.

Her hands bound by rope, it was clear that the young woman was not in the same rank or organization as the cloaked figures that were leading her.

Somewhere not too far off, a wolf howled in the forest, and a few of the cloaked figures turned to face the sound.

Continuing along, the group made its way through the woods.</div>"
16618,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-04 23:40:00,Grey Star,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">People, a veritable sea of them. How one place could ever be so crowded, even with such festivities such as this always boggled Alaustriel's mind. Used to his own race's rather smaller populations and to the solitude of the wilds, being cramped like a canned sardine was not something the young ranger enjoyed. One had to always be vigilant in such circumstances so as to not be stolen from or menaced by in certain spaces, as well as fight through the throngs just to get to your destination. The discordant smells and sounds also did not help and if anything added to the dizzying and muddling of his senses. 

An ever so slight frown etched itself on the elf's face, cursing his own slight appearance for working against him in such times like these. Though the crowd was only adding to Alaustriel's annoyance, he continued onward, jostled by just about everyone bigger than him, which even included a couple of the human children who were ahead of him by mass.  After all, when many people congregated en masse, it often meant that the meeting place would be flooded with goods and supplies that were normally spaced out much farther and over a significantly vaster area, which meant much more traveling time. Here, an adventurer could easily pick up all their essentials and trade in their own. Import and export at its finest. 

Despite having been born a high elf, Alaustriel had thoroughly explored the professions of his wood elf cousins and picked up the craft. Forestry came naturally to him, and thus his affinity towards woodworking earned him quite a few bags of coin. Wooden figurines, expertly crafted bows, and even wands ready to be charged with magic were all made by his own two hands while traveling about the various regions were sold in Starter Town. Though they weren't masterworks like those who truly committed to the craft, neither were they of any quality below high average. He had his pride after all. 

Most of the coins were then spent on supplies, mostly salt, spices, herbs, and oils from abroad as well as a few camping supplies that he had to replace. He didn't need much after all, and often planned for long expeditions since he preferred the roads left traveled and the only thing he would splurge for were ingredients to make food taste better and toiletries to hygienic purposes. Anything else he could simply gather from the wilderness or trade for with other travelers. It was after he was quietly exulting over the find of various pouches of high quality tea that he heard a commotion in the distance.

Curious to see it in person, the green-clad youth wandered towards its source with pointed ears tuned towards the sounds. Soon, he found that it was a human child (from his perspective) loudly stating exactly how villainous and evil she was... and failing miserably due to her looks. And he was most certain it was bravado or a role to be played, like those actors from the theaters and operas. Feeling a bit bad for how everyone was all but ignoring the poor girl, he politely clapped. ""Bravo. Would you like a candied apple as tribute for not outright destroying me?"" Alaustriel said with a calmly even tone and straight face, even as he held a stick with the dessert perched atop it: a crunchy green apple glazed with sugar and roasted about a flame evenly so that the surface was caramelized and the insides juicy enough to squirt out on the first bite with just the right amount of tartness to make it so that the treat was not overly sweet.</div>"
16619,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-05 10:53:00,MonkeyBusiness,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Marcus smiled when the man mentioned that he wouldn't have to pay for the rabbit and that he would just have to repay him by keeping him company. That was way more do able than giving the dark haired man some of the few remaining coins that he kept in a small pouch hanging from his hip. He got up from his spot on the branch and had some of his wire wrap around the branch so that he could lower himself easily to the ground instead of risking jumping the ten feet and injuring himself which he knew would happen. He lowered himself in the shaded part of the tree and to the guy watching him it could have appeared that he had just floated down since it would be hard to see the wires without light catching the metal.

When he reached the ground, he activated the wheel on the his raised right hand which reeled in the wire from the branch and gave a small click as the end of the wire disappeared into his fingertips. As he lowered his arm and made his way toward the fire where the man was sitting he looked around and noticed that the man had some nice pelts with him which Marcus did not want to ruin. When he reached the fire he sat down cross legged on the ground opposite of the man and accepted the rabbit that was offered to him. 

""Don't worry about a plate. I can't remember the last time I have actually used a plate."" Marcus pulled his traveling pack from under his cloak and set it on the ground next to him before he started to pull the rabbit meat apart with his clawed gloves. ""My name by the way is Marcus Frost and I am a adventurer always looking for a nice warm climate. What would your name be?"" As he asked this question a wolf howled as it seemed to call out to find its pack and was answered with a few more howls which sounded closer than Marcus would have liked. ""It might not have been the best idea to set up camp in the forest right now. It sounds like wolves are prowling the area.""</div>"

As Jolokia continued along the street, she rubbed her poor tummy, deprived of the amazing-looking sword barbecue.  If she'd turned around, maybe she would've noticed the deceptively young-looking boy following her, but a few things conspired to grab her attention.  Firstly, a young blond man had approached her, asking her about the one thing she didn't really want to think about at the time.

""Um... Food?"" Staring blankly at the man for a moment, Jolokia tilted her head before rubbing her stomach once more. ""The sword barbecue looked so amazing!  It was like barbecue, but made with <span class=""bb-i"">swords!</span>  Isn't that the most awesome thing ever?  It's two of the best things ever combined into the most amazingly awesome thing and... And I don't have enough money for it!  So I need to get more money!  Do you know how I can get more money?  I really want to try it and-""

Thankfully for Sotaru, the green-haired girl's babbling was cut off when a strange girl began ranting about dark magic and foolish mortals.  Turning her gaze towards her, Jolokia watched the entire monologue intently, and...

""Yay!  Awesome!  That was great!"" She broke into applause. ""I just love amateur theater!""</div>"

Bravo? Clapping?!

""It's not some kind of <span class=""bb-i"">performance</span>!"" Amythest snapped, smoothly snatching the candied apple away from the elf. Her eyes narrowed as she held it back. Well, okay, it... kind of was... but everyone had to believe she absolutely was the mistress of all evil! So she didn't actually... do anything evil... She <span class=""bb-i"">could</span>, and that was the point! She was totally dangerous and evil and everything! So she would most certainly tell all of these 'foolish mortals' just how dangerous she was while enjoying this tasty and delicious caramel apple. Taking a bite out of it and finding it just as wonderful as it looked, she quickly stepped back to once again announce just how evil she was, now that people were paying attention.

And just as she opened her mouth... Some green-haired girl declared that she loved amateur theater. While clapping. Amythest would have irritably folded her arms if not for the threat of losing the caramel apple. Or worse, getting it stuck to her clothing. That would just plain suck. ""I just said it's not a performance! I truly am the dark mistress of evil!""

... So she had helped those children get their ball back one time... and saved that kitten... she also stole that pie! That was pretty evil, right? Totally.

""If you continue to treat me so lightly, I shall introduce you to the true meaning of pain!"" She declared triumphantly.</div>"

""Barbeque?"" he repeated. His stomach started to rumble.

He looked at Jolokia, listening, until he heard a speech coming from someone nearby. He looked over and saw a pink haired girl. ""This place sure is interesting,"" he said aloud. ""They really go all out with the entertainment.""

Sotaru noticed someone else nearby as well, possibly an elf.

He was going to say something else, when soon a voice could be heard from a large stage in the plaza.

One of the festival's hosts was at the front of the stage, and many of the event's organizers were on stage behind him. The host was a large, round man with a stylized moustache and red cheeks. ""Hello good townsfolk! I want to welcome you all to the Annual Starter Town Festival!"" The crowds turned their attention to the stage and many people began to cheer.

The man on stage continued. ""As you all know, this is a three day long festival. To get things started, all of our main stores will have 20% discount sales for the next two hours!"" The crowd cheered in response and some women screamed in excitement.

""Also, soon we will begin our swordplay competition. Sign-ups are right over here. And with that, let the celebration begin!""

Music began to play and the crowd seemed filled with excitement as everyone went to various parts of the town. There was a short line in front of the stage, where people were signing up for the swordplay competition.

The competition seemed interesting to Sotaru and he would probably watch. But first he needed to get some food. He looked to the green haired girl again. ""Hm? How to get more money?"" he looked around. ""Maybe the sword competition has prize money... But what are the chances any of us could win that."" He then pointed to the male elf and the pink haired girl. ""Maybe they can help us.""

Walking towards them, Sotaru noted the caramel apple the girl had. Some drool appeared from his lips as he stared at it.</div>"

""Excuse me! Make way! I can't see where I'm going! Sorry!"" Amelia's voice called out to the people who were walking in front of her. Some scooted away from her path after laying eyes on what appeared to be a tower of food coming their way. The little thief was trying her hardest to keep all the food she hugged in arms balanced so it would not collapse on top of her. Not that she wouldn't mind having food on top of her, she just doesn't want to get it dirty. It would be a waste of food! This surplus of delicious goodies she is carrying were all packaged inside little boxes and stacked up high enough to block Amelia's vision, it was about two feet above her head. People who stood off on the side were watching to see if this girl would be able to maintain her balance, but by the looks of it, Amelia won't last long as the boxes started to wobble very ominously.

Prior to this, Amelia arrived to Starter Town not too long ago. She was very excited to hear that a festival was going on and wanted to make sure she hoarded as much food as she can before the stores are sold out. However, there was one issue...she had no money! <span class=""bb-i"">-Wallet moths and a frown-</span> So, she had to improvise and by improvise, she means steal. She went around different parts of town, pickpocketing unsuspecting people and bought various foods that caught her eye, down to the last coin. It started with one box of munchies...and then another...and another...then by the time she knew it, she already had about thirty boxes. The vendors tried to convince Amelia that she was already carrying more than she could handle, but that didn't stop her from living the dream!

She would eventually cross paths with a particular blonde haired guy, green haired girl, a blonde elf, and a pink haired girl like herself. However, Amelia's course was heading straight towards the pink haired mage who was distracted with her precious caramel apple to notice a large shadow overlapping her own little size. When Amelia heard the announcement about a swordplay competition being held, it made her lose focus for a brief moment as the boxes began to wobble uncontrollably...and started to tip forward towards the poor pink haired girl. Amelia's eyes widened realizing it at the last minute, but she did not think anyone would be in front of her, so she assumed the situation wouldn't be any worse than it already is.</div>"

Then henceforth, I shall do my best so as to not anger the great and powerful Dark Mistress of Evil."" More blatant straight faced words came from the inwardly amused elf, even as he looked the very opposite of frightened. ""In any case, make sure you finish up the apple before it gets cold... It tastes much better when hot and juicy."" And then Alaustriel glanced at the newcomers even as music and announcements made everything jarringly louder to his sensitive ears. 

""..."" Seeing that another child was covetously looking at the treat, the high elf ranger simply bought another one no questions asked to hand over to the boy. Children in general were rather nice and refreshing, partly because elves don't have much young people running about and partly because they are rather innocent and endearing. Humans were so lucky they could have such numbers of children running about.

And then... an ominous human siege tower arrived. ""Oh, great and terrible Lady of Pain, do be careful. I fear that you will experience a most jarring encounter should you not sidestep two paces henceforth lest you be buried by an avalanche."" Still, not even kids were safe from his snark.

It glinted in the low light, and the whir of the spooling was audible above the crackle on fire. An impressive trick nonetheless, and the concealment of the apparatus used was equally so; it must have been the last in a long heritage of designs, compacting and improving each generation, because Radley could not see it. 

Radley listened, attentive to each word, how the syllables fell tremulous compared to the raging winds of nature’s overture, even with the bass of a male voice. Marcus Frost, a traveller long on the road by the sounds of it, much like Radley, however Radley only wandered the road in introverted pilgrimage. A self-proclaimed adventurer; that might explain his curious garb, particularly the clawed gloves, and the wires. Radley’s heart had burnt for adventure, for fame, in his youth, but that had died and a new purpose arose, and still, Radley found himself envying Marcus, that all he sought was an adventure and a warm climate. Many times Radley had wished for a simpler life, one might assume life as a monk was a simple as it came, but the search for purpose and enlightenment created a turmoil and desperation that was at times the most unbearable burden in the world. 

“Well met, Marcus, I am Radley Oerheart, a travelling monk” he leaned his body forward in a half bow, not rising from his sitting position, “I am currently on my way to Starter Town, to see the festival so famed, and do trade with the merchants there.”

At the howl, Marcus shifted his head, the way one would when they encountered something that seized their curiosity. Wolves were surprisingly cautious; Radley had seen many on the road, at the fleeting edges of his vision, but none had ever attacked him. There was another possibility: that in surprisingly cold Southern Winter seemed to be holding on too tightly as spring encroached, and perhaps a Dire Wolf had made its way into the forest. They favoured the Northern Territories, but it was not unknown for them to get lost and wander too far South. They were vile of beasts of half wolf and half, well, something else, a putrid evil that lingered and twisted their very being for the sole purpose of malicious acts of violence. They were also about twice the size of their uncorrupted cousins. 

“Perhaps you are right,” Radley admitted, a little sullen after having set up camp, and now he had to go about deconstructing it. He looked at the rabbit in the skillet. He wouldn’t have time to cure it now, and he wasn’t that hungry after finishing his.

“Feel free to help yourself to more; it would only go to waste otherwise.”

The fire had just about died out, so Radley began the job of packing up, untying the sheet stretched between the trees. Then would come fitting it into his sack.

“It will soon be night, we have but a few minutes of dying light,” Radley observed, “It would be unwise for either of us to travel alone, so perhaps we could accompany each other to Starter Town?”</div>"

A young man enters the town of new beginnings, it wasn't a cold town like he expected before but change brought him here, his master once told him that the world is a big place not just the cold countries itself to be explored. His name is Barry Freeman, child of the Exorcist Family Mage from the North.

Based on his knowledge there is a town festival and certain rewards will be given furthermore there is a swordplay competition and through the man on stage; The man also known as the host confirmed that it is to be true.  

Music began to play and the crowd seemed filled with excitement. Various groups of people head to their desired activities, to each is his own. Barry would definitely sign up to fight. Not for fame but the goal in his eyes; to fight every strong opponent in different towns which counts as training for him.

He enters the short line and there he notices a group of friends and a boy drooling whether it is the girl he's drooling on or the food she have.  

Swordplay competitions and the arena, for the past few months; he had been traveling around different place to challenge those who are strong. Saying it out loud to the counter. <span class=""bb-b"">""I would like to sign up and fight!""</span> Knowing that it will earn him money, Barry is ready for any challenge.</div>"

He wondered what kind of enlightenment the man could find to make him travel to Starter Town for a festival. Marcus had come to this area because he had heard that there was some money to be made at the festival and rumors that there was fun and adventure to be had if he had come to this town which he hoped would not disappoint. 

When Radley agreed to pack up camp and continue the travel to the town before it got completely dark Marcus started to rise to his feet before examining the last rabbit on the skillet. ""I may have an idea with the rabbit."" He fished around in his pack for a moment before drawing a leather wrap and picking up the rabbit. He tore of a piece of the meat for himself to eat before wrapping the rest of it up and stowing it into his pack. ""Some for now and than some for the wolves when they catch up to us."" He told the monk with a smile before biting into the meat.

""I like your idea of traveling together, it would give us more time to meet each other as well. I do hope there are some good festival competitions when we get there to participate in, I have wished for some good fun lately."" Marcus told the monk as he helped him pack up his equipment and stamp out the fire before throwing his own pack over his shoulder and pulling it in under his cloak so that his cloak covered up all his clothes and equipment.</div>"

The boy was still following closely behind as his pursuers had not given up on finding the young boy. He proceeded to continue on his way towards the barbeque girl, when all of a sudden she came to a stop. Some ordinary looking adventurer with brown hair appeared before them, as he looked on the man asked something about food. The boy was still a bit confused as he forgot what he was following the girl for, as he yawned a bit, looking around as he then overheard that word again. The man mentioned this secret food item known as barbeque, what was this great food item that its name just made you feel like eating. 

For some reason he did not notice the girl in the pink hair until he sneezed softly. As he raised up his little head slowly to the side he saw the weirdest pink haired girl in his life. Then something occurred to him, why was it that everyone here had strange colourful hair just like him. He grew up in a small village and everyone besides him had brown or black hair. Why was it that these people all had hair of different colours.

He then finally noticed something he should have known sooner, he had no idea where he was as he accidentally spoke this thought out loud. 
""Where am I?""

He then closed his mouth when he noticed as he looked down only to listen in on some guy starting a weird speech of sorts. This voice was rather loud and was coming from some strange stage in the plaza area. He had never seen a stage before, nor did he know what a plaza was to begin with.
The man appeared plump to the boy and he assumed the guy was eating way too much, as he began to wonder if this was what happened if you ate the legendary barbeque. The announcement of the Annual Starter Town Festival made him confused since he had also never been to a festival. What was with this weird town and its strange multi-coloured people. Was he having some kind of weird dream and where were his parents, so many questions as he noticed people cheering after a while. He was not that bad at hearing he just had an attention span that turned on and off at a whim. 

He began to think to himself as he half listened to what the man was saying. He had to discover the joy of this legendary legend of barbeque. He also had to survive the dreaded festival for three days since he thought anything that takes that long to end must be torture. The stores were all having a twenty percent off sale which then made him speak out loud again. ""That is stupid, twenty percent is like free nearly"",as he pouted faintly as he had not realized that the price was not twenty percent, but twenty percent less.

He began to think the entire town was mad as people were cheering for these mad prices, maybe they were right to cheer, but what about the poor store keepers who lose all their money for this stupid festival. He then finally heard something familiar for a change, a sword play competition as his pursuers were still in hot pursuit. He then tried to ask someone about the sword play as he spoke softly, ""swordplay"".

He did not even notice it but he was now right next to the green haired girl, how he ended up next to her he would not know as he looked up and realised the tall brown haired guy who he may later learn was the adventurer known as Sotaru had said a few words about winning money in swordplay. Was this man the town guide and since he had brown hair he had to be a normal person who would understand him.

Destiny or Fate, Swords or Magic, all he knew was he was hungry without money and bored with a sword.</div>"

The two horse-drawn carriages, and the cloaked figures walking beside them progressed through the woods.

On a trail separate from where Marcus and Radley were, the mysterious group continued along and made its way toward the town. Going at a steady speed, soon the group had passed the area where Marcus and Radley were, continuing into the forest in the distance.

The horses, cloaked figures and the young woman could all be seen from where Marcus and Radley were. For a moment, one of the cloaked figures paused. He looked in the general direction of the campsite.</div>"

Any time they could buy themselves would be vital, and perhaps an easy meal, regardless of size, would dissuade them from pursuing the much more deadly prey of Marcus and Radley, prey who could fight back with greater lethality. 

Placing the pelts carefully in his pack, Radley swung it onto his back, leaning against his staff idly as Marcus kicked out the fire. This stranger’s acts of kindness would not go unrewarded; Radley would make sure of it, and he had a debt to Marcus now, not matter how small, and Radley would repay him when he saw the opportunity, in accordance to the tacit code of those who wander the road. Hospitality was as valuable as gold on the road, as both made journeys easier by tenfold. 

“To the joy of festivities then,” Radley toasted; he too hoped to see what the festival held. He had overheard the conversations of merchants and anglers in Bjorfrost of what he might expect: culinary delights, performers that could swallow fire and swords, exhibition duelling from the finest swordsmen in the South and beyond, and even an open tournament in which all could partake.

“We should try and reach the main road before dark,” Radley stated, “The light of the lanterns will shield us from much of the night’s hardships, and other travellers may be arriving late also. It will be the safest place.” 

He began walking through the tree-line, leaving the clearing behind, lifting his staff every second step to match his pace. 

“Tell me Marcus, from where have you come?”</div>"

It seemed like he had got here just in time. He would probably buy all of his supplies soon before the shops ran out of stock.

He hadn't been planning on entering the sword competition, but it didn't seem like many people were signing up, so he thought he actually had a chance at winning.

He looked at the small group of people nearby that he had been talking with, noticing a few more people showing up. When he saw someone carrying a huge amount of boxes, he looked surprised and a sweatdrop formed on the side of his face. Staggering backwards a few steps, he eventually tried to catch as many of the containers as he could, but was only able to get a few.

Although he didn't know any of these people, they all seemed interesting for some reason.

""Do you all know each other? I need to go buy some supplies, but hopefully I can meet with you all again a bit later.""

He noticed a boy that was nearby as well. He wasn't sure if the boy was lost or not, but decided he would see if he could help him after signing up for the competition.

Sotaru smiled at them all and waved, before walking over to the stage nearby.

In the meantime, the mysterious group that had been traveling through the forest made its way to the town. They slowly made their way into the large square and began to look around.

Sotaru walked over to the signup area for the competition.

The man at the table spoke to Sotaru and Barry. ""Alright, the competition begins in half an hour. First prize is 100 gold coins. Second and third place will get smaller prizes. Meet back here in half an hour, and the competition will begin.""</div>"

""I am from a mountain range for the far north named by the surrounding villages as the Impassable Mountains. Within those mountains is a clan of ice users that created a village in one of the valleys hidden by large glacier sheets that can only be opened by people that control the will of ice itself. It is even difficult for mages specialized in ice to enter the village as they do not have a connection to the ice like my clan does."" He explained to the traveling monk as they broke out on the the main road and started on their way to Starter Town. 

""Where do you come from Radley? Do you come from a monastery or from an actually village?"" Marcus asked the man as he could tell that they were coming to the end of the forest. A smile twitched at the edge of his lips as he felt excitement that they were almost to the town that could be a lot of fun for him if the festivals lived up to his expectations. That was when he heard a snarl from the edge of the road and than a howl from a not so far off wolf causing Marcus to dig into his pack for the cooked rabbit ready to throw it if the wolves decided to come closer.</div>"
16633,Heroic Saga,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-11 23:39:00,jdh97,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Radley nodded as they walked, the chill adding to the briskness of his step as much as his anxiousness to lay eyes upon the festival, and most of all, sleep on a soft bed; there were few luxuries greater than that after a long time spent travelling and sleeping hard, or not at all if the conditions forbade it. He noticed that his breath was starting to mist in front of him as the heat slowly bled away as night fell. 

He had not heard of the Impassable Mountains, though he supposed he had not travelled that far North, and on maps, he guessed that the range was likely given another name. More interestingly, though, was that his new acquaintance claimed to possess the ability to “control the will of the ice itself”.  Truly fascinating, and Radley was eager for a demonstration, but he could wait until they reach Starter Town; it wasn’t as pressing as the danger that lurked around them. 

The snarl and howl stopped the words in Radley’s open mouth, and made him grip his staff tighter, ready for use. He noticed too his partner’s discomfort, how he had fetched the rabbit to be used as a diversion. There was a few moments of tense silence that seemed too drag on for far too long, as Radley listened intently, slowing his step slightly, waiting for any furthers signs. None came. Yet.

Easing a little, and returning to his normal pace, Radley answered, “I was raised in a monastery.” He answered simply, at first, mulling over his next words, considering how much he needed to tell. “I was not born there though, I was,” <span class=""bb-i"">saved from cardinal life of sin and treachery</span>, “abandoned.” He coughed into his free hand as the beginnings of a cold began to manifest. 

“I’ve been travelling for about five years.” Saying it aloud was odd; five years, and he felt no closer to reaching his goal than when he started. He shook his head, dismissing his thoughts, and smiled ruefully. Then the smile was gone.

“What was your home like? Your family?” Radley wished he knew his parent’s love, and wondered how one could abandon it for the road when they were already accepted and loved.</div>"

If Amythest had been paying more attention, she might have noticed that the elf was not lying. However, she was quite distracted. She was certain that there was a liar, after all, and all these people were disrespecting her! On top of that, there was some kind of contest going on. Hah! That was the perfect opportunity to show her might! Plus, this caramel apple was ridiculously delicious, there was no way anyone was going to go distracting her from that. Unfortunately, this meant she had no idea what was happening behind her, at least until the shadow fell completely over her. Narrowing her eyes, she quickly spun on her heel.

""Okay, who's the big lu..."" Amythest stared blankly for a moment as the boxes teetered and then fell directly onto her. Boxes careened down and covered her, and all she could do was let out a yelp and cover her head. Indeed, in a few moments, the pink-haired girl had been entirely consumed by a vast pile of boxes.

At least until her head popped out, sans hat.

He had been fleeing from the wolves for almost half an hour. But there was something different about these wolves... he didn't have time to think about it.

Stumbling into a clearing where Radley and Marcus were, the male tripped over a bush and fell onto the ground.

Large growling noises could be heard coming from the nearby bushes and trees, and soon two large wolves (twice the size of normal ones) with purple-grey hides of fur, were lingering a moderate distance away from Marcus and Radley. The huge wolf creatures were looking at the man that had fallen down and began to pace back and forward, determining if they should dive on the man they had been following, or growl at the two new people they had found.

Meanwhile, the male that had fallen to the ground was beginning to get to his feet. Seeing others nearby, he pulled two short swords from his belt and faced the two large creatures.

""You two!"" the male called out, with his back to Marcus and Radley. ""Go on! Get out of here!""

The new man drew two swords and stood between the traveling pair and the wolves before telling them to run while he seemed like he wanted to hold them off. ""I can't let you have all the fun now."" Marcus said as he dropped into a low stance with both hands raised in front of him and fingers spread.

Wire shot out of his left hand and wrapped around the man's waist and with a tug of his arm he pulled the man to their position and a second later released the wires before wires from all of fingers shot out to wrap around several trees in the area. In a matter of seconds there was a large web of glinting wire connected to his fingertips that separated the two large wolves and the three men from each other. ""It's not always good to try and be a hero. You need to spread out the fun of a fight or you will never make friends.""

The large wolves growled, seeing the web that was stopping them from going forward. One of the wolves roared, before it jumped over the large web and started to attack the three of them.

The male with the two swords ducked under a slash from the wolf's claws, before punching the wolf in the side. The wolf swung its paw in a sweep and hit the male in the chest, knocking him to the ground.

Join others in a quest across lands and kingdoms. Acquire the Sacred Artifacts and save the lands from destruction. As the story unfolds, where will you stand?</div></div>


In the land of Alvera, the four kingdoms have enjoyed 100 years of peace. 

A hundred years ago, the Noble Heroes used their strength and courage, along with the Sacred Artifacts, to defeat the evil knight Levado. However, before being stopped by the heroes, Levado had brought destruction and tyranny to the lands. Upon his defeat, Levado was thought to have been destroyed, but there were rumors that the heroes had only been able to stop him and take away his power, and that Levado had survived. 

Now, in the present, the kingdoms are finally being restored to their former prosperity. The stories of the Noble Heroes have become something of a legend, as new generations have been born and time has passed. 

All seems well for the lands... however, evil is brewing. 

A mysterious mist approaches the land of Alvera, leaving the destruction of towns and villages in its wake. Fear travels throughout the kingdoms. What is this mist? Where is it coming from? Will a century's worth of hard work be destroyed yet again? And who is behind this? 

A new generation of heroes is called forth. 

Ones who can find the Sacred Artifacts - once used by the heroic warriors of the past - and become the new Noble Heroes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song:</span> <a href=""#"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSjRggiSBrU</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 30  

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
<img src=""http://media.animevice.com/uploads/1/12218/403061-nurarihyon_no_mago_episode_21__3_.png""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> A Bo staff of rattan wood, a gift from his late master, Shaiden Ginji, has served as a loyal companion to Radley over his five years as a travelling hermit, serving equally well as a cane to aid walking as it did to defend himself from optimistic predators or highwaymen; never did they expect it to be wielded with such expertise. Knowledgeable of many arts regarding the staff, Radley can adapt to his foe, but most generally encompass dazzling displays of spinning and flowing blows, favouring fast, precise strikes, and sometimes even just impressive feats designed to intimidate before it is even necessary to resort to violence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities: 
Chi Augmentation:</span>
Through concentration, Radley can harness his spiritual energy, his chi, to augment his physical and mental capabilities. He can keep this up for close to an hour, though he would have to rest for twice a long afterwards to regain his strength, and would be significantly weakened during this period. During the augmentation, Radley’s eyes turn an iridescent blue. 

Typically, Radley possesses a fair amount of strength for his build, as he exercises regularly practising with his staff and fists. With the use of his spiritual energy, he is capable of augmenting his strength to incredible levels, and of augmenting his speed, so that he can reach roughly thrice the speed he normally achievable by sprinting full out, though this cannot be maintained for long. However, he can fortify his stamina, and run tirelessly at a slower pace, which drains him less. The tissues of Radley’s body can also be hardened. While still vulnerable to physical injury, Radley is able to use his spiritual energy to augment his durability, so that he is able to withstand blunt forces or glancing blows from swords, though a strong enough blow could still break his bones and a sword or spear could cut or impale him if the strike is direct. 

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">[Locked]</font>
Chi Channelling:</span>
By summoning his chi and focusing it into his hand or staff, he can make both extremely strong and resistant to damage, and pain in the case of his hand, and strike using either with far greater force than otherwise possible. This technique is simply a psychic channelling of concentrated natural energy, so it requires a calm mind and time. There is a visual indicator of this channelling, as his staff or hand will begin to glow blue, and then seem to burst into a heatless blue flame.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
Radley Oerheart was the son of a one Lord Cumberdale Oerheart, a profitable salt merchant he came into his fortune through hard work and no small amount of luck, monopolising business in the Western port city of Caerhern, which his manor overlooks. He is renowned for being a cold man, as sharp as a flint; with a cutting edge, he would just as readily shave your neck with, as he would slit your throat, so long as it benefitted him. Perhaps something he was equally renowned for as his debauchery was his lechery; men feared to let their wives near him, as he was undeniably a handsome man, with money, who also happened to ooze charisma: an envy-invoking trifecta. Even more so when he did not attempt to hide the fact that he was a serial adulterer, not even his first wife. She committed suicide, not out of spite or jealousy, but for fear of what might happen to her if she tried to run of, or, heavens forbid, asked Lord Cumberdale to leave.

However, before she killed herself, she handed her newborn baby boy to a travelling scholar, asking him to take him far away, paying him with a hefty purse of silver, but it may not have been necessary; the sheer maternal fear in the woman’s eyes meant that he could hardly refuse. Cumberdale was outraged when he found out that his only legitimate song was missing, odd, considering the number, he no doubt had in the city under another man’s unknowing protection. The scholar, well versed in eastern geography, knew a place where the babe would be safe, and took him many miles to seek sanctuary in a Temple, belonging to the Bugwa Monks. They took the child in when the scholar asked, not wanting or needing an explanation.

And so that it where Radley Oerheart spent his youth. He was different to the other children who were there, even though there were very few; his eyes were wider and closer to circles than their narrow slits, and his skin was paler. These differences meant that he was shunned and picked, as is the petty and sometimes cruel nature of children. Radley withdrew into himself slightly, not trying to make friends, and sometimes even actively avoiding new faces. The teachers, who taught the children how to read and write, thought he was merely being petulant and acting up when he would not read a word or answer a question. 

In his late childhood, different teachers taught them how to fight, with bare fists and various weapons, and about the spirituality behind this art. Radley was able to actively engage in this, enjoy the sparing sessions, even though he was sometimes scolded for being too rough. Having no friends, this practise consumed most of his time, when he was not doing chores around the temple, and soon he became a prominent student, if not the best, and Radley became proud of himself and his achievements.

But pride comes before the fall, and one day, after enduring numerous harsh whispers behind his back, but purposefully loud enough to here, and “accidental” blows during movement exercises, Radley broke, and took it out on his teacher, asking why what they were doing was so repetitive. The teacher was unnervingly calm at this outburst, and said it was to learn the forms entirely, in muscles and not just mind. Radley insisted that he had, and challenged the teacher to a duel, saying that if he won, he would be taught something new, and if he lost, he would do as the teacher instructed. The teacher obliged, and they duelled with wooden swords, and Radley won the duel, to the shock of everyone present; at times he seemed to be a blur, and there was a glint in his eyes that might have just been a trick of the light. 

The teacher, having agreed to the bargain, kept his part, instructing him to go to Shaiden Ginji and ask for his tutorage. Radley did, though he had his doubts, as the man was very old, with a crooked back and deep wrinkles. When he asked Shaiden, the old man asked to duel him. Radley hardly though it a fair fight, and it wasn’t, not for Radley at least; the old man used a staff that meant Radley could never get close with his wooden sword, getting swept, jabbed and redirected without even raising a defence. Radley was so shocked at his defeat, and at the skill of the old man, that he begged him to teach him, vouching to abandon the sword, which he had believed to be the king of weapons, and follow the way of the staff. The old man agreed, and told him the story of Jearom; He was considered the best swordsman to have ever lived, and it was said he fought over 10,000 times in battle and single combat. He only lost once, and it was to a lowly farmer with a quarterstaff.

Radley spent the next ten years under Shaiden’s tutelage, during which he became a far calmer and reserved person. At the end of this period, Shaiden gave him his staff, and said there was no more he could be taught, so Radley should travel the world, and discover what lessons it had in store for him. He travelled over the next five years, his trail taking him across three continents, with many nights spent under the stars in a humble camp. Over this time, he amounted a small amount of money, but had very little desire for expensive things, only travelling into towns to spend it when he could find not prey with his bow he had purchased near the start of his expedition, or if the weather was particularly nasty. 

After many years of travelling, helping those in need and learning all that he could, he found himself in Alvera, he heard rumours of a mist that could leave entire towns in ruins. Whilst not entirely believing this, he did not entirely dismiss it either, and began looking for answers.</div>"

Theme Song: (Optional) 

 Gender: Male 

Age: 21

 Appearance:
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><a href=""http://s1104.photobucket.com/user/monkeyboy226/media/noel.jpg.html""><img src=""http://i1104.photobucket.com/albums/h326/monkeyboy226/noel.jpg""/></a></div></div>

Personality: Marcus is the type of person most people would describe as carefree and empty headed. He always seems to be able to get out of his responsibilities and would rather disappear and mediate or just relax in a tree somewhere in a hammock made from his wires. One of the few things that is able to hold his interest is a good looking person of the opposite gender and he can often be seen trying to impress them by showing off. He doesn't like to take anything seriously and never fights seriously either because he is actually afraid of what he can do when he uses his weapon and powers in combination and will only fight serious when he is sure that none of his friends are able to see him fight.

Favourite Colour(s): Aqua Blue 

Favourite Food(s): Enjoys most types of seafood.

Hobbies: Meditation, hitting on girls, having a good drink, being lazy.

Weapons: A spool of wire that is held in a holster on the small of his back with connections to two gloves which house wheels that control the speed at which the wire can be spooled out. The wire is constantly being kept in a damp state so that Marcus could use his ice powers on the wires. His gloves have talons on the fingertips that allow for the wire to not become tangled and also helps with close combat if he has to fight up close.

Powers/Abilities: Marcus has powers over water in his immediate area having the ability to solidify the liquid into ice that he is than able to use freely. He can bend the ice to his will allowing the ice to become his protection or it can be used as an offensive tool as well. He is skilled with the use of thin wire that can be released from his gloves and can be spread out to create webs for defense. 

Biography: Marcus was born into in a village hidden away in a mountain range where the power of ice is very common. Marcus grew up with a need to explore the rest of the world which was uncommon for the village as they did like to maintain their isolation hidden away in their village, but the real need for adventure came from his need to find warmer climates as he was never a fan of the cold in the mountains. He now travels around the land looking for a good adventure to join and some good looking females to chase after in the spare time.

(The weapon is similar to the one of Akame Ga Kill called Cross Tail.)</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song:</span> I need to get one, theme songs are awesome

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 100

He is somewhere around 4ft and maybe shorter or slightly taller, he generally has blue hair which is strange and grey to blue eyes which seem to look right through people. He wears a strange piece of headwear to protect his ears. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> He is detached and other than his failed attempts at hiding emotion, he is a normal child who just happened to be related to the great evil in this world. With only Crusaders or so called Holy people able to tell his lineage this boy always expects that people hate him and will assume his done wrong under nearly all circumstances even when he is in the right. He occasionally loses interest in things and falls asleep as well as not seeming to pay attention under most circumstances. He is somewhat afraid of bugs, but mostly more annoyed then scared of them even though he finds him interesting, with this line it describes how he sees most things. He fears everything, finds everything to be a bother but in the end he still loves it all. His personality however will turn dark when he gets too scared or too annoyed with him turning into a selfish brat easily. He also does not like things crawling into his ears so wears some headwear sometimes when his sleeping to stop this

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Colour(s):</span> Blue and Green 

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Food(s):</span> Plain Sandwich

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> Taking naps and wandering around just looking at the scenery

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> He currently only has a small short sword his father gave him with the Cleave Ability, he can craft his own weapons but it takes a few minutes to do so and he can not carry too many weapons either. At most he will either have 1 heavy weapon or 2 light weapons on him at any given time. This does not include minor lightweight tools that are small like his hands, does not include daggers but refers to items such as a small rock, a bag of dust, a pouch of coins etc...
Currently wears a hidden chest plate covering his heart area in general in order to protect him from stabs to the chest, he can still be hurt since it merely directs it away from the heart and does not prevent it from stabbing right through him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> 
Longevity (It may be a miracle or a witch's curse, but this child does not age and can live without anything for a long period of time)

Sleep Recovery (Sleeping lets him recover from non-fatal wounds or diseases, but any fatal, severe wound or deadly disease will require medical attention or magical healing in order to recover)

Lodestone Crafting (Passed down from his adopted family he has the ability to craft unique weapons which have one of three enhanced abilities)

<span class=""bb-b"">Crafted Weapon Abilities</span>

Cleave : the weapon may attack further than its appeared range (used to deal with fast opponents or ranged attackers)
Rend : the weapon does more damage that its supposed to like a scratch becomes a cut and a cut becomes a slash (used for taking out tough beasts)
Shatter : the ability to break most solid objects besides good quality weapons or strong metal structures(used to break armor)

He is skilled in using a Halberd (Hammer Pike Spear type weapon) Hammers in general, swords and bows. 

He is not exceptional in either but is good with all of them. Can also craft other weapons if taught as well as basic armor as well, however he still needs to spend time gathering the materials unless he uses the Lodestone Craft which he can not use to often as it makes him fall asleep after and basically lets him craft by just having basic materials and converting them through a somewhat magical process which uses will power and imagination to create the weapon in the absence of the correct materials

He has very keen eyesight with exceptional hearing, but his body is actually frail and rather weak in general.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>The young boy who was born close to a hundred years ago under the light of a Broken Moon (in essence a bunch of trees blocked the moon so it looked broken) this child was born. He did not do much and he just so happened to have been born the day the evil knight had been defeated. However soon people had begun to find out that this was a child was no ordinary child as it was discovered his real mother was a witch of sorts who had served under Levado during the troubling times. Due to these circumstances the woman who had died gave her child away to a couple of people in a peaceful village before dying at the hands of the great Crusaders. 

His adoptive parents at that time were  members of the Lodestone Crafting family that had often worked hard at their craft . They raised the child as their own, even though he was exceptionally quiet and hard to understand they loved him anyways. He had a talent for taking up the crafting arts of his family due to possessing a good amount of unique energy used in the Lodestone Arts.

The Crusaders soon discovered the child's location after several years of searching and apparent murdering of any child who happened to be the same age as that child. They were still close to a day away from arriving in the town as the villagers kept away from the blacksmiths calling their weapons the Blades of Ruin and the Swords of Destruction having forgotten that the village lived off of the exploits of the smiths. The village was also given a message of a handsome reward if they handed over the child, while the villagers wished to give up the child the family stood firm and being the main source of the village's status the villagers could not just force them to give in to the demands.

As the little boys adoptive parents looked to the little boy who at the time was no more than ten years of age, they could not bare the thought of giving the child up to suffer for the sins of his parent's past with the Evil Knight. They felt an innocent child should not be given up as they prepared for him to leave packing in a backpack full of sandwiches, a small pouch filled with money and two bottles of water which he could barely carry. They told him they loved him and he did not show too much affection but he looked down sadly and said he loved them too which they thought was cute. 

As they were running out of time with the villagers having already barricaded the family in for the time when the crusaders would arrive. It was then that an assassin appeared, the boy did not look scared at all and the child's adoptive father drew his sword stopping the assassin at the last second holding him back. The villagers trapped them on the outside and an assassin kept his father from helping him to travel. The mother knew that it would be up to her, she took her best weapon she had ever crafted known as the Scythe of Revenance, each weapon had a name at the end and a secret name to draw out its potential. Using this she went outside and began breaking through the barricades as her child followed her not really understanding the situation itself. The Crusaders began to hurry on horseback as the woman found two horses just before they could leave her husband was sent flying out of the house with cuts all over his body, the boy did not cry but his eyes were watering as she felt him try to go to the aid of the man who raised him, she held his shoulder firm. 

He was resisting crying by instinct so to speak as he would tear up but would never let the tears flow, at least not in front of people who were strangers. It was then that the crusaders arrived in her moment of hesitation, her husband was defeated and the assassin though strong was injured having only his right arm left and having lost his left ear as well. The woman did not know what to do the assassin blocked the path to the barricade and the crusaders now blocked the escape path she had just broken through. The man known as the boy's father began to stand up laughing and then said, ""A sword is life, made from the heat of passion found in the heart of a furnace"". The man grabbed his sword and stabbed it into the ground as the area around the house and random locations around the village began exploding the villagers fled but the crusaders numbering close to over fifty had their target in their sights, but were in no hurry as they knew the child could be a fake so they did not want to waste too much effort as they slowly began to surround her. The man knew this display meant nothing to the trained knights who had been fighting against Levado all these years. 

The leader of the Crusaders finally spoke up and it was unclear what he said, but that day the woman and man fought bravely and the leader himself stabbed the boy in the chest. He left the sword there as the child was pinned to the ground, they were done with their mission but before they could retrieve the body the village began collapsing having taken too much damage in this battle, the crusaders retreated and the entire village vanished off the face of the earth

After close to ninety years with the child having been forgotten an archaeologist dug up and found the body of a child with a sword in his chest, taking out the sword the child was still alive. As he got to the hospital they found the child had luckily survived as the sword had been bent to stab short of his heart but how did a child survive being buried in the ground and as they were about to ask questions the child woke up not sure of where he was or what was going on as the people were confused and simply did not know what to do with their findings. 
With the child's future unclear and not much known, what could they hope to discover from this lucky child.

That might work out, except that my character doesn't like enclosed spaces, since he's usually too big to fit without breaking things, haha. He'd have to wait outside. :)

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Alaustriel 

<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song:</span> <a href=""#"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTR-7y1GWbk&amp;list=PLB7C54A78B5EC3290</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 121
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/gbb4NFD.jpg"">Please don't call me a child...</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Alaustriel is a rather snarky individual with a very sharp tongue, which he doesn't hesitate to use or even hold back in the least. He's a bit on the reserved side and is a naturally cautious fellow that is more at ease when out in the wilds than when in more enclosed spaces and is often quite cool-headed in most situations simply because it takes quite a lot to get him worked up. He also has a hidden soft side for children and often joins in on their games due to his youthful appearance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Colour(s):</span> Leafy Green and Sunshine Yellow
<span class=""bb-b"">Favourite Food(s):</span> Fried Rice 
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> Woodcarving, sculpting, engraving, cooking, camping, riding. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> Alaustriel carries on his person a longbow made from an Ironbark Tree (which as the name suggests is rather sturdy and hard) and a few trick arrows such as serrated ones to excaberate wounds or heavier ironcapped ones for armored foes at the cost of overall range. Also he carries a dagger and a short sword as well as an even dozen throwing knives made from a special hard ceramic that he commissioned from his previous adventures due to the fact that the ceramic does not rust.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span> Alaustriel is an expert woodsman and tracker who can flit about woods with nary a sound while making use of all of nature's bounty that most people would not even think of even accessing, and is a master archer whose unerring arrows pack a lot more punch than his slight frame suggests- partially due to his access of low leveled life magics that strengthen the body's inherent characteristics and also healing abilities that lets him heal light wounds. Other than that, he's quite good at fending off people who gets too close through any versions of daggers/knives/short blades and an unorthodox kick based martial arts style that make use of his powerful legs. 

He also knows his way around cooking whether it be survival cooking made in the wilderness with a minimum of ingredients and tools at hand or proper fare made in the kitchen full of bountiful ingredients due to his picky tongue appetite being one of the few negative high elven traits he cannot rid himself of, as he loves good tasting food. As such, he knows quite a bit of information on just about anything edible and their effects having gone and tasted them all personally. As such he has poison resistance towards many plant based poisons due to ingesting trace amounts of the things to develop immunity to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>  Born in a high elf society and as head of a minor noble house, Alaustriel chafed under the stifling and often times stuffy society that was so dismissive of everything not their own culture. Eventually having enough of being cooped up, the young elf literally leaped out a window during a particularly off-putting tutoring lesson and discarded his finery and clan name to live a free life that he always wanted. Somewhere along his travels, the elf apprenticed under a ranger and became a wood elf in all but species. Now he goes about righting wrongs he finds with a brand of rather chaotic justice. And arrows.</div>"

Theme Song: 
Gender: Female
Age: OLDER THAN THE ABYSS OF TIME ITSELF(15) 
Appearance: <a href=""http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&amp;s=view&amp;id=1119361"">""Hah! I am the TRUE darkness of this world!""</a>
Personality: Destroyer of kingdoms! Slayer of kings! Kidnapper of fair maidens! All of these things are not at all an apt description of Amythest as much as she would like others to think they are. Amythest would just <span class=""bb-i"">love</span> to be seen as a terrible and cruel mistress of black magic who takes pleasure in the suffering of others. She styles herself as such, loudly proclaiming that she seeks to bring evil upon all mankind! ... And yet in action, she cannot ever bring herself to perform truly evil acts. No, in spite of her claims, Amythest is not the evildoer she styles herself as. For every claim of being a heinous monster that she makes, Amythest has likely done something only mildly malevolent or even outright benevolent and kind. She claims she has never done anything helpful for anyone, but truthfully the girl simply is a much better person than she claims she is. She likes children and often has trouble keeping her villainous facade up around them, unless they're finding it entertaining. Amythest is full of confidence and pride in herself, and refuses to back down in the face of danger. Unless that danger is spiders. Amythest does not like spiders.
Favourite Colour(s): Blood red! Like the stains left behind by those who oppose her! Ahahaha! (Pink)
Favourite Food(s): The souls of her enemies! (Cheesecake)
Hobbies: Torturing the innocent! (Pressing flowers) Indulging in the spoils of conquest! (Collecting magical grimoires)
Weapons: Her channeling staff. That is all.
Powers/Abilities: Amythest is a black mage, utilizing primarily offensive spells. These spells are primarily fire-or-lightning-based, such as a bolt of lightning or a ball of fire. Amythest's most powerful spells, however, channel her mana as a beam or burst of purple energy. These spells can be highly hazardous to many organic targets. Amythest isn't very athletic and lacks physical skills, all her focus being on magic.
Biography: Amythest was born to an average family and had an average life. Averagely. Boringly. It was dull. Really way, way too dull. Amythest couldn't stand how boring she felt it was. Sure, she was learning magic, but she never got to do anything with it! That's when she hit upon the idea of becoming a traveler! But not just any traveler... a Dark Traveler! Yes, she would paint herself as the most evil and dark adventurer to cross the lands! ... And it became quite obvious that these claims were only words, as she simply could not actually do anything that evil. But still, she ventures across the lands and proclaims her evilness while doing nothing to back it up.</div>"

Eh, I'd rather you didn't.  For one thing any demonic blood would've been from a <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> long time ago seeing how the Masalans have split off into their own seperate species rather than just being ""half-demon"" or whatever, so your character would have to be a ridiculous age.

For another thing, Jolokia's a character I've had for a while and like inserting into stuff because she's fun, and I like to keep her kind of silly.  So unless your demon character is basically Asmodai from Buddyfight or something it might be a little jarring to me, eheh. ^^; Sorry about that.</div>"

Favourite Food(s): (Optional)  ""Souls of course and maybe a sheep now and then.""

Hobbies:   killing cattle , causing minor natural disasters and once in awhile killing someone for there soul.

Weapons:  Doesn't use weapons

Powers/Abilities: 

Gift of the Demon- is a ability  that probably every full blood basic demon has. The ability to fly, move at incredible speeds, lift beyond the weight of an elephant and drain the life out mortal creatures.

The bad thing about this is that any item blessed by a priest or titled holy can easily make him powerless.

Biography: larz is probably on of the oldest living things to be recorded in history. He was titled as a myth since no one has actually lived long enough to give a full description of Larz. The Myth states that there were once kingdoms in hell and verious powerful rulers. Larz was one of them and ruled over the void a small dark dot that was basically corrupted and swallowed up by evil. Years later Lucifer defeats the kingdoms and rebuilds hell from the ground up. Lucky Larz build a barrier to separate hell and the void. The myth continues on by saying Larz finally lost all he had when Lucifer confronts him and rips the void to shreds. In his final moments he consumed the rest of the void and removed his body from the realm of hell. The Myth ends with Larz dying in the earthly realm while he actually went into hiding.</div>"

Okay, um, I know I'm just a player but I have to protest this. The unrestricted ability to force other characters to be evil is kind of not okay.

It's just I've role-played with lots of people who have English as a second or even third language, and they had writing styles similar to yours.

I'm pretty sure this conflicts with the second rule: ""Do not be Overpowered, unfair or invincible with your character.""

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Gift of the Demon- is a ability  that probably every full blood basic demon has. The ability to fly, move at incredible speeds, lift beyond the weight of an elephant and drain the life out mortal creatures.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/slendy"">@Slendy</a></footer></blockquote>
As does this

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">The bad thing about this is that any item blessed by a priest or titled holy can easily make him powerless.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/slendy"">@Slendy</a></footer></blockquote>
What? Does a blessed item only have to exist for him to be powerless? Does it have to touch him? Do the effects last as long as it is touching, or do they remain afterwards for a set time? Is it perhaps proportional to the power and/or the length of time said item was touching?

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Biography: larz is probably on of the oldest living things to be recorded in history.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/slendy"">@Slendy</a></footer></blockquote>
Second rule again. 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">He was titled as a myth since no one has actually lived long enough to give a full description of Larz. The Myth states that there were once kingdoms in hell and verious powerful rulers. Larz was one of them and ruled over the void a small dark dot that was basically corrupted and swallowed up by evil. Years later Lucifer defeats the kingdoms and rebuilds hell from the ground up. Lucky Larz build a barrier to separate hell and the void. The myth continues on by saying Larz finally lost all he had when Lucifer confronts him and rips the void to shreds. In his final moments he consumed the rest of the void and removed his body from the realm of hell. The Myth ends with Larz dying in the earthly realm while he actually went into hiding.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/slendy"">@Slendy</a></footer></blockquote>
In fact, pretty much all of his bio seems in conflict with the second rule. Powerful demon ruler? It took the omnipotent embodiment of evil to defeat him?  Consumption of the entire realm he ruled over? Definitely conflict here.

First I want to thank you all for your help.

It's my main goal to make sure this RP is fun and enjoyable for everyone, and that includes making sure that all of the characters are reasonable and fair.

Here are the reasons why I approved the character.

Larz does have powerful abilities or powers, that can potentially be way too strong. However, because of the rules, these abilities will only be able to be used in a certain way. None of our characters have unrestricted powers. The restrictions are seen in the guidelines/rules themselves.

So yes, I have approved his powers and abilities. And as long as he uses them within the general rules, they are fine.

Once the action and fighting begins in the story, if anyone feels that a character is too strong, please feel free to let me know. And of course I will be making sure that everything is fair myself.

Slendy, all of your powers and abilities that were there when I approved your character are fine. Everyone, be sure to be fair and reasonable with your character's abilities and powers.</div>"

Writing style and native language do not actually go together, like my one friend is an English professor but when she types things normally it looks like some hillbilly is writing it... Not everyone uses advanced or English in its purest form, also take into account that English is also somewhat different in each country... For one in my country you spell color as colour, while in America it is spelled without the u.... that is just something simple, but just take that into account English is spoken as second and third language in so many countries but is actually only a first language in a few since well most first language speakers speak Chinese or some Indian language...

Either way you should probably try not to make comments like this too often, it can actually come off very offensive if you tell people their writing style seems similar to a second or third language speaker... I am first language English so being told my writing style is 2nd or 3rd language....meh...

Anyways best to ask questions like those in pm rather, if it had been someone more sensitive it could have blown out of proportion

Oh and I wander when I should make my next post I really am waiting to see how Rin reacts to be honest.</div>"
16719,Heroic Saga,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76111-heroic-saga,['Casual'],2015-02-05 14:56:00,jdh97,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Chinese is actually only the most spoken language by its number of speakers; China is a huge place and makes up the majority of its speakers. Mandarin is only an official language in China, Taiwan, and Singapore, however the in the latter two countries the local languages have influenced the spoken vernacular form of Mandarin, and I'm not even sure this is the primary language in those territories. However, English is the primary language in Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Canada, Cook Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Ireland, Jamaica, New Zealand,  Nigeria, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Singapore, Trinidad and Tobago, and is spoken as a secondary language in many more. 

Regardless, that was just me being pedantic and eristic. I understand what you are saying and I am sorry. It is good to see you are a reasonable and tolerant person.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
While optimistic and helpful, Barry carries a cool demeanor and tries to come up with solutions to problems. Barry is cheerful and plays weird jokes when it calls for it. Upon that coolness factor of his, lies a pragmatist.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers/Abilities:</span>
With vigorous training, Barry achieved peak human condition in terms of strength and speed, with magic he is able to enhance his body making it 2x better than what a normal human could do. Barry is skilled in two handed weapons. As a Fighter Mage, he specializes in ice magic fused with his weapons. To some degree he is able to exorcist abilities, an inherited aspect of his family. However; he isn't so skilled in both magic and exorcism thus making him a third rate Mage, what compensates is his two handed skills. His fighting style is pragmatic.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
Barry grew up from the north raised in a family of Exorcists, the country's name is Lyranias. At some point of time due to something secret, he is determined to become a strong mage, seeking vast lands to better himself. He seeks order, helping those in need and making sure things are in the right order. More so, he is determined to achieve his long term goal, he doesn't say what it is, but he will achieve it.

He likes to get lost in the horizon and discover new things.</div></div></div>"

The two main areas right now are the town and the forest.

In town, a group of our characters are together, so you could have your character see a group of people and walk over to them if you like.

Or if you want to go to the forest first, you could join the people there as they head toward the town. Ultimately, everyone will probably meet at the town anyway though.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Ancient - The First One

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> 
Hiraga is a shapeshifter, however her representing form is that of a blue tiger.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""pic"" type=""button"">pic [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://th03.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2011/186/a/a/blue_tiger_by_krowzy-d3l27so.jpg""/>
<a href=""#"">SOURCE</a></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span> God

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
The guardian goddess is connected to Ceyr, it’s state directly affecting her mood. In general, she is nonconflicting and among the Gods can be considered neither good nor evil. She has no mercy however, and her judgement is always an eye for an eye. Should a mortal decide to stripmine a mountain range and fall large forests to build machines of war, they will find their shipyards claimed for the seas by a tsunami and their factories swallowed by fissures caused by an earthquake. As such, she is the element of chaos in any god’s plans.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills and Abilities:</span> 

Hiraga is the Nature’s guardian: If everything is well in Ceyr, her own powers are weakening, to the point of falling into slumber in what could be called a ‘golden age’. However if the Land suffers, the goddess’ wrath will rain upon those responsible in force unmatched. If the world would be nearing it’s end, she gains the power to to bring judgement day, purge the original world of all life and cause the souls to move either to Aett or Hades. Nobody dares to think what would happen to Ceyr if she was slain, and no one is certain she can be.

To her followers, she offers the gift of reincarnation, having the power to anchor their soul in the world in a new body. Those who choose to remain are brought back as Dryads, Treants and similar creatures that aid her watch the land. While she is not omniscient, she has the ability to glimpse the life of any given soul to pass judgement on it.

As a spirit, Hiraga can appear in any form. Aside from her representative tiger, she has been seen posing as creatures of myths, from fairies to dragons.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
The first of the Ancient spirits, Hiraga looked upon the planet and her heart was filled with joy at the sight of the beautiful creation. She declared to forever guard it from destruction and her power was made one with the World.

When her younger siblings started to war over the world, she struck against any and all who desecrated its beauty. As her anger grown, she struck the world itself and torn the continents apart, hoping the sea separating the warring factions would end the Nature’s torment, and for some time it worked. However the annoying mortals built ships and created traversing magics, making her effort a mere delay and inconvenience.

As she tried to repair the damage the war was doing, she, unknown to her, contributed the most to the final cataclysm. As their creator died and two new planes appeared in existence while great damage was brought to Ceyr, so died a part of the Guardian.

With the demise of their creator, Hiraga’s powers also decreased. Now unable to affect the world at large, she instead brought to light the druids, who aid the world in small doses, but in large number.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Connections"" type=""button"">Connections [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">Ancients</span>
When not actively interfering with the World, hiraga occasionally seeks out the company of some of her brothers and sisters. She is only openly hostile to those who would instruct their followers to do something that would hurt Nature.

Danives: She rather enjoys having her mind challenged by his riddles and approves of his lack of demands of the mortals, horrible people as they are. However, due to the assassins hardly ever taking more than one life at a time, she doesn’t consider Danives’ followers a real danger to Nature and leaves them be.

Perpetiel: As he chooses to observe rather than interfere with the world, she doesn't take much notice of him.

Agimar: As a god, Hiraga doesn't interfere with the matters of Hades, but she sees that Agimar uses his power to create and destroy more or less equally, and thus doesn't have too bad of an opinion of him.

Voana: As one to promote the lust for war in the hearts of mortals, Hiraga dislikes Voana immensely. the guardian only doesn't take action against the warrior goddess directly because she doesn't actively tell the mortals to make war.

Sohena: As the other sister chose Hades for her home, Hiraga doesn't pay her much attention as long as she keeps premonitions of her own actions to herself and doesn't hinder the guardian's actions.

Yakushi: One of her oldest sisters, Yakushi is one of the few whose opinion matters to Hiraga and can change her mind. She sees Yakushi as a sort of opposite to herself - where Hiraga is not concerned with the mortals, they matter to Yakushi. 

Myra and Vyra: Hiraga treats the sisters equally, and that is as sources of problems for her. With their meddling and putting certain Mortals to power, they are likely to create more work for her. Curiously she is more forgiving of the demon, as her following and thus potential threat is far lower than that of her sister.

Neveras: As much as she hates to admit it, Hiraga considers Neveras her greatest weapon. Whenever one faction would be at the verge of overpowering another, all she has to do is let her brother loose. As she feels a bit guilty about this,s he takes care to be nice to him when he is out of his seal.

Shoshar: A powerful ally, the water dragon is another of those whose advice the guardian goddess will listen to. Irreplaceable to aiding her ward the seas, Hiraga does not interfere with the workings of his usually calm followers. She often seeks his aid when the mortals of coastal cities need a lecture.

<span class=""bb-i"">Upstarts</span>
The younger spirits are as unnoticeable to her as the mortals until they harm the world. She is familiar with them, but unlike her ancient siblings, Hiraga doesn’t actively seek their company, although she will not shy from them if they seek her.

Gaon Latze: Who?

Itone Isolfrodottir: hiraga knows of her, but she is a matchstick to her wife's star as far as being a problem for Hiraga is concerned.

Dust: As this one was born of and lives in the areas of the world that she failed to protect, Hiraga feels slightly sorry for the spirit, and yet grateful for warding the areas others gave up on.

Varavana: One of the few upstarts she knows by name, Hiraga oftentimes mused whether she should seek the employ of this young one. So far though she has kept her distance, but keeps an eye on the upstart to see whether he would be worthy of more interest.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Religion:</span>
Druidism: A mix of religion and magic school, druids - people using the nature commanding magic - are the recipients of her power. As such, she has some followers in the faction of every other God, being her eyes and ears.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nation:</span>
No nation is explicitly devoted to Hiraga, however she commands the creatures that bear the souls of reincarnated druids. While scattered all over the world and few in numbers, they are more powerful than the average mortal. The greatest number of druids comes from the ranks of Night Elves, and she has some followers among the orkishs shamans.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span>
Hiraga’s symbol is the last letter of any alphabet, a silent reminder that noone should upset her, or the world will be in peril.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Upstart

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>

Imagine <a href=""http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-11/ff14-lalafell-fisherman.html"">this</a> but without the moustache. He also has a small deer as a companion that goes wherever he goes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span> Minor God of Fishing

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>

Very much laid back, almost to an uncanny degree. Most of the time he sits very still in one spot with his fishing line out in front of him. Not really fishing for anything, but more like he's just letting time pass. This attitude extends to the people he meets, mostly he won't interact unless he's interacted with first. However, he actually has a perfect memory and he can also sense specific people coming as if he's in tune with the world.

When he is actually fishing, he suddenly becomes extremely alert, almost nothing will get by him unnoticed; even though he looks as laid back as he usually is. He only ever fishes when he's bored, which isn't all that rare in the end. He also fishes pretty much anywhere, for pretty much anything. He has been seen fishing for birds, giant worms, and even dragons.

He is still somewhat childish for a god. He was once a human hero who was turned into a god, and he was extremely young when he died.

He often travels all around Ceyr on various creatures he has tamed and stored in his fishing bag. He is often seen fishing for exotic things. His deer follows him wherever he goes and never seems to leave his side. He sees a lot.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills and Abilities:</span> 

Being the God of Fishing, Gaon has many fishing related abilities.

His main ability concerns his fishing rod. The rod itself is unremarkable, if not somewhat extravagant, but Gaon is able to form a fishing line of pure energy that won't ever break. It can be whatever colour he wants it to be, and it always forms with a hook at the end of it. Its length is controlled by his will, and he can also detach the line from his rod if he so wishes. The line disintegrates a few seconds after it is severed from the rod.

Another of his powers concerns his fishing pouch (which isn't in the picture). The small bag he wears at his side is much larger than it would appear and contains an infinite amount of bait, and several creatures he has caught and wishes to keep. The pouch is able to conjure any kind of bait, for any kind of creature. He even has bait for some gods, but gods don't take bait most of the time.

His last power is the ability to tame creatures he has caught, but this takes different amounts of effort depending on the creature. Regular fish and small marine life he can tame fairly easily. Creatures of higher intelligences increase the effort required and dragons take a huge amount of effort while anything above that is impossible for him. He can also communicate with creatures telepathically when he touches them, but for creatures capable of speech, this is largely unecessary.

He also emanates an aura of calmness.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""This is pretty long &gt;.&lt;"" type=""button"">This is pretty long &gt;.&lt; [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Gaon was once a very young human child. You wouldn't really be able to tell from the way he acts; as compared to gods, humans are seen to be incredibly rushed, with children being even more so than regular adults. However, Gaon is considered patient, even for a god. However, his incredible patience is one of the things that led to him becoming a god in the first place.

While he was human, Gaon was very much unremarkable. He wasn't unusual, he was but a normal human child. But the most normal people are the ones who make the greatest heroes, and Gaon was one of the first humans to prove that.

He was raised in a coastal village. The village itself was fairly small, the only reason for its existence was its prime position for fishing. The village wasn't very rich, but they got by with what they had. However, one day, disaster struck.

For seemingly no reason at all, the fish on the coast slowly seeemed to disappear. Over the course of the year, the amount of fish the fishermen hauled in daily dwindled until one day, they found none at all. Over the course of the next year, their money and food dwindled until all of the village was starving. There was no sign that the fish would return, and the village seemed to be doomed.

It was during this time, that Gaon's mother died, but not before leaving him with a parting gift. His mother told him the tale of a great Water Dragon, that was said to hold the secrets of the sea. As she died, Gaon decided that he would find this Dragon, even if it was the last thing he did.

Gathering all the supplies he could, he set off from his village to find the Dragon. He set off for the nearest city which he hoped would have enough information to point him towards the whereabouts of the Dragon. It was then that he discovered, that the mysterious disappearance hadn't been limited to his village alone.

The coastal city he had arrived in was also falling into poverty, all of the sources for their marine exports having vanished during the previous year. He learned that the situation was so desperate, that the king of the city had ordered his army to find the Dragon, and find if it was responsible for the disappearance.

Gaon begged the king to join his army, but he refused him because he was so young. Regardless, Gaon decided to follow the army to find the dragon. Some months later, and they arrived at the Water Dragon’s fabled pool. Only, the sight that greeted them was one that they did not expect.

The Dragon was said to reside in a great temple built to honour him, but when they arrive, the temple was in ruins and the Dragon was nowhere to be found. The temple had a large pool of water which was connected to the sea, but the rubble had filled the majority of the pool, leaving little hope of finding the Dragon.

Regardless, the knights attempted in vain to call out to the dragon, Gaon even joined them as they tried to coax the dragon out of hiding. Alas, no dragon appeared, and the soldiers lost their will as their commander had no choice but to start the long march home.

Gaon however, didn’t give up. He set up camp in the ruins with what little supplies he had gained from the city, and spent many days staring into the pool in the hopes of finding an answer. During those few days, a small deer from the nearby forest kept him company as he stared in vain at the rubble-choked pool.

One day, as he stumbled about the ruins of the temple, he found his answer. He found ancient scrolls, detailing the practices of the monks of the temple. He found within those scrolls, that they used to bring a sacrifice to the Water Dragon, more specifically, young deer.

Even as he read it, the deer that had become his companion for the past few days butted its head affectionately into his side. He spent the next few days starting into the pool again, mentally preparing himself for what he had to do.

The next day, he took a piece of rubble and killed his only companion. The next part wasn’t any easier.

The monks used to sacrifice their animals on a submerged altar, but the rubble eliminated any trace of the altar, and the water was extremely deep. If Gaon held the deer in the water, he was likely to lose it to the depths. He had to find something else. Using a large bamboo pole and a coil of rope, he created the very first fishing rod. He tied one end around the neck of the deer, and the other tightly around the bamboo pole.

After it was done, he pushed his friend into the water, held the pole in front of him to keep the deer level and waited.

He waited for an hour, and another hour. He waited for 3 hours, 4 hours, and then even 6 hours. He waited for the Dragon to come for another 10 hours. He waited an entire day and the Water Dragon didn’t come. But he didn’t falter, he didn’t have anything else to live for. He kept waiting with his line outstretched, for another day, 2 days, 4 days, until finally, he got a bite.

Suddenly, something pulled hard, and Gaon almost fell off of his perch. In the water below, he saw a huge shadow of a long serpent like creature. He could feel it pulling on the rope, as if in curiosity. Suddenly, it rose from the water, its leering eyes directly in front of Gaon.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”Why do you seek me, human?”</span></span> It said.

Gaon told him about how the fish had disappeared from all of the coastal cities, and asked if the Water Dragon had a way of bringing them back.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”The fish do not wish to return,”</span></span> the Dragon said, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”They are tired of you humans constantly taking away their families for your own personal profit. They will never return.”</span></span>

Gaon pleaded with the Dragon, but it was all for naught.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”You cannot persuade me, human.”</span></span> It said angrily. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”Why do I even waste time with you?”</span></span> With that, it sunk into the waters. But it didn’t know it still had the rope in its stomach, and Gaon was still holding onto the pole.

He held on as the Dragon surged through the seas, he held on as the Dragon swam through storms, whirlpools, and even typhoons until one day, the Dragon had enough.

The Dragon burst out of the water, and plucked Gaon off of his back with one of his claws.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”WHY DO YOU PERSIST, HUMAN?!”</span></span> It shouted angrily.

But by now, Gaon was a complete mess. The exhaustion was finally taking its toll, and the pole he held onto was slick with his blood. He could barely think straight, and his previous life in the village seemed so far behind him. But even as he was held aloft by the great Dragon, he still held a shred of consciousness left, and he realized something he’d known for a while now.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""thistle"">”Because I have nothing else to live for.”</font></span> Gaon said finally.

And then he died. And the Water Dragon let his body fall into the sea, the waters washing it clean rod clean. It’s unknown exactly what the Water Dragon did afterwards, but slowly the fish returned to the ports, and life slowly returned to normal for the coastal cities. The body of Gaon was never found, and all that remained was his fishing rod which washed ashore in the village he was born in.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Connections:</span>

Hiraga: He hasn't really ever seen her, but he knows that she is the first ancient god. He sometimes runs into her followers while fishing in Ceyr who are always eager to tell him about her.

Danives: He saw him one time from afar

Voena and Itone: Someone told him about them one time after he caught a giant squid

Sohena: He caught an elf accidentally and he told him about her

Agimar: He fished one of his followers out of a river once and it thanked him by telling him about Agimar

Dust: He heard about him when he asked someone from a nearby town about the Desolace

Varavana: Has no idea who he is, but saw him more than a few times

Yakushi: Gaon's only heard whispers of her, but she sounds pretty nice all things considered

Neveras: No one's ever told him about Neveras and he doesn't talk to other spirits generally so he knows pretty much nothing about him

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span> He wasn't there for the War, he's pretty damn young.

Also, though he is technically a god of fishing, he's not exactly known as such and the credit for the fishing rod went to the person who invented the fishing reel. He's more of a legend really, seeing as no one was there when he died. He's basically an urban legend at this point because he's only ever been running around fishing weird stuff.</div>"

Age: Ancient 

Appearance: A woman of immense height, broad in stature and gilded with muscles firm with strength, Voana possess’ the pure stance of a warrior, and moves with a sure and solid confidence. Pale in pallor, her eyes stand a stark contrast as a piercing cobalt blue and easily convey the intensity of her emotions, complementing the slackness and ease of her face in expressing her reactions and feelings. Her hair is a thick, inky black, curled and prone to being clotted with blood, it usually falls in a tail to the mid of her back, when clean and loose however it is noted by many as a beautiful mane. Asides from her eyes and hair Voana is not a great beauty, the most renowned beauty from her appearance being the fine and aged armour that is rarely missing from her body, and her long sword Iron-Spine. 

Nature: God 
Personality: Quick to temper and more often than not stiff with the bristles of austerity rather than the shivers of joy, Voana encompasses the attributes most suited to a warrior primed for battle, being serious and unmoving in most matters but passionate and devoted for that which matters to her most. On principle, Voana is largely mistrustful with those she is a stranger to and rarely makes any attempt to be friendly, outside of her immediate kin her disposition isn't any better and she has few allies amongst her fellow Spirits. With those who have won her respect or love however, she is much softer, and more willing to cooperate or even yield, and will pledge her loyalty and skill to those who have won her devotion. 

Skills and Abilities: As the God of Battle, Voana is the epitome of the perfect warrior, strong agile and possessing a great thirst for victory and the submission of her enemies. She is renowned for her swordplay, endurance and keen concentration during a fight, unmatched by many. 

Backstory: An Ancient God, Voana is said to have been born when the sharp spears of light from the Golden Orb cut a great Northern rock in half, from the rubble of the left half, Voana emerged, sturdy and solid as the rock she was born from. Born with her Sister, Sohena who emerged from the right half of the rock, Voana grew to have a fierce skill and empathy for battle and, emboldened by the benevolent rays of the Golden Orb, became a great warrior unmatched by any mortal. When the wars began, Voana stood for the Northern territories and relished in the chance to prove her prowess in battle. 

When the mortal races appeared on Ceyr, Voana was distrustful of near all Elves and Orcs, but found some kindred spirits within the Humans, as they lacked the detachment in battle of the Elves and the mindlessness of the Orcs. One human in particular, the Shield-Maiden Itone, caught Voanas interest and heart, and when the mortal fell in the battles on Ceyr during the War in Heaven, Voanas fury tore apart the flesh and bone of hundreds of mortals. In her grief and desperation Voana lay the body of Itone in the geyser of a golden mist, predetermined by her Sister to provide birth to a new form of spirit. The mists housed in the vessel of Itone successfully, creating her into an Upstart, a lesser spirit but a spirit with a long life nonetheless. Rejoicing at the return of her beloved, Voana took Itone for her Wife, and when Itone refused to leave Ceyr in the aftermath of the death of the Golden Orb, Voana turned away from Aett and refused to join her Sister in Hades, choosing to remain on Ceyr with her Wife. 

Allowing herself to be revered as a ‘God’, Voanas feats in battle became legendary amongst mortals and she was officially created as the God of Battle. Currently she resides in the old Northern territories on Ceyr, rarely visiting Aett or Hades, and preferring to spend her time with Itone and the Humans, finding conflict with the other Gods who chose to reside on Ceyr, due to their dislike of her Upstart Wife. 

Connections:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Wife: Itone Isolfrodotti- Voana regards her Wife with an immeasurable amount of respect and care, having won Itones friendship and admiration in turn before she won her heart. Due to Itones Upstart structure being the sole reason for her being able to live, Voana is little concerned with her Wife's origins. Nonetheless she recognises the stigma attached to being an Upstart, and guards her Wife with a merciless rage should any of her kin dare to intervene in their marriage.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">ANCIENTS</span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Sister: Sohena- As her Body-Sister, Voana regards Sohena with significantly more affection and patience than she would with any other of their kin, as well as a quiet and practical respect for Sohenas abilities. When they were younger and Sohenas Foresight blossomed, Voana would never hesitate in coming to her Sisters defence in the face of naysayers or those who wished to greedily leech off her gift. When the Golden Orb perished and their kin turned to paint Sohena a villain, Voana again defended her Sister without hesitation, and was offended when Sohena rewarded her efforts by swearing neutrality in the War in Heaven and refusing to fight by Voanas side. Nonetheless when Sohena emerged to guide Voana and the fallen Itone to the golden mists Voana followed her orders without question, and the bond between the Sisters repaired upon Itones resurrection. Since Sohenas flight to Hades the two Sisters have not met nor spoke since, however Voana would still never hesitate in expressing open affection for the one she shared her birth with.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Danives- Voana, as God of Battle, has little patience for the art of illusions and the tactics of a quiet kill, having in the past even named them as 'cowards methods', believing that true honour can be derived only from open combat. As such, she regards Danives, perhaps the master of such tricks, with some level of dislike, not really contempt but certainly not companionship. For the most part, she tolerates him, as there is little need for his followers in the Northern territories, so long as he doesn't approach her or her Wife, Voana sees no need to engage him.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Hiraga- Having never felt as in-tune with nature as others of her kin, Voana has little respect for the beauties of nature nor does she actively preserve it beyond what suits her own needs. Having never met the Guardian herself, but having heard rumours of the Guardians own ire against her for her patronage of war and battle, Voana is cautious enough to keep her distance from the small commune of Druids that reside deep in the Free Forests bordering her home.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Agimar- Having fought on the side of the Golden Orb during the War in Heaven, Voana sought to know of as many of the enemy as was able, when information was fetched for the Ancient Agimar, her soldiers and the Spymasters were able to provide little beyond his grotesque and beastly appearance on the battlefield. Following the war, having surmised that his powers lay in trickery and shady tactics, Voana regards Agimar with the same distrust she does Danives, having a keen dislike for 'cowards methods' in combat.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Yakushi- Not possessing the clear and patient mind of her Sister, Voana doesn't really understand or respect the arts of finer knowledge, and can easily become frustrated with those who might flaunt their knowledge over her. Following the War in Heaven, Voana has heard of Yakushi's presence on Ceyr, but chooses not to dwell over it.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Neveras- Having at first merely thought of him as a pest during their young days when he trailed after her Sister, Voana grew to regard Neveras as more of a threat, not trusting those who could limit her strength and though she never participated in securing Neveras' banishment, neither did Voana dispute it. Following the War in Heaven and Neveras' return, the meetings between the two Ancients have been far and few between, Neveras seemingly placated by seeing how much Voana has 'settled down' with her Wife.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">UPSTARTS</span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Varavana- Being the patron of battle itself, Voana easily finds conflict with the idea of a tiny being putting a stop to what, in her younger and wilder days, she referred to as 'the most fun you could have outside of sipping from a tankard or a fair maiden'. Despite this seeming dislike, the two have never met and the only knowledge Voana has on the being is tripe she largely puts down to rumours.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Dust- As Voana resides in the Northern territories, a land that is strong and largely self-sufficient, she has never met the God of the Desolace nor has she ever heard his stirrings on the wind.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Gaon Latze- Voana regards most Upstarts aside from her Wife with a large air of disinterest,as singularly focused she is on the rule that, so long as it doesn't intrude on her home she doesn't think much of it. Now and then when she visits various markets she hears the Fisher-wives gossip of tales of a 'small fisherman who catches all sorts' but again, it's not really enough to hold her interest for too long.</li></ul>
      
Religion: Voanas blessing is called upon by near all soldiers of the Human and Elven races, and is recognised for her might in battle by many Orcs as well. There is no strict religious following of Voana however, though she has disciples in the form of pupils who ask to be trained by her. Offerings are made to her in the form of a battle-worn sword coated in the blood of a war-horse.
 
Nation: As Voana is the patron of battle, an act that has no one home on Ceyr, Voana does not command a nation. However, her influence is most present in the Northern territories where she resides with her Wife. 

Other: Voana spends her days hunting in the Free Forests surrounding her home, training pupils or patrolling the towns within distance of the cottage she shares with Itone. Her nose is always peaked to the winds for the scent of battle, and her and her Wife regularly ride out to resolve any skirmish within a wide radius of their land. Because of this, Voana and Itone are regarded as the unofficial Chiefs and ultimate authorities in their immediate territory and are received positively in any towns therein. Due to this, Voana can on occasion be found in the local tavern, downing many a pint, winning many an arm wrestle and perhaps starting a fight or two.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Sohena, God of Premonitions and Oracles"" type=""button"">Sohena, God of Premonitions and Oracles [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Name: Sohena, God of Premonitions and Oracles 
Age: Ancient 

Appearance: Matching the height of her Sister, Sohena is slender in build and possessing an almost bewitching elegance, a gliding grace always evident in her movements. Dark-skinned, dark-eyed and wearing a face of great beauty, Sohenas face bares contrast to her Sisters in terms of ease of expression. Where Voanas emotions are always plain to see on her face, Sohenas face is always the picture of calm, unmoving and to many, unnerving in its statuesque impassiveness. Her hair is thick, wiry and dark, and is generally gathered atop her head, bordered by a crown-plait. Her forehead is decorated with a crown of beads and ornaments that only serve to compliment her beauty. Sohena dresses herself simply, wearing gowns of simple material in dark colours, her feet are always bare save for a lone silver band wrapped around the ankle of her right foot. 

Nature: Demon 
Personality: Sohena is similar to her Sister Voana in that she is also largely deemed unapproachable by many, although in contrast to Voana, who is unapproachable due to her unfriendliness, Sohena wards off close contact due to her air of placidness and serenity that inspires both awe and an unsettling feeling in all who look upon her. In fact, Sohena stands as a direct contrast to her Sister in many aspects of her personality, where Voana is loud Sohena is quiet, and where Voana is quick to temper Sohena is cool and calm in the face of adversity. Perhaps the only aspect of personality they share is their unwillingness to reach out to others, Sohena is no more willing than her Sister to be friendly to others, preferring her privacy and isolation. 

Skills and Abilities: Sohenas abilities also stand at a direct contrast to Voanas, Sohena having no real skill for combat or talents of the body. The reasoning for this is said to originate from their birth when the rock the Sisters were born from was cut in half. Whilst Voanas half of the rock fell with its face to the earth, representing the Body and all things solid, Sohenas half of the rock instead fell with its face looking up at the sky, gifting Sohena with the magnificence of the Golden Orb, and therefore, the abilities of the Mind and all things immaterial. Sohena is gifted with the ability of Foresight, allowing her to see visions of what is to come, a much coveted ability amongst the spirits. Whether because of the jealousy of her kin or because Sohena herself believes her power to be too dangerous, Sohena largely keeps her visions to herself, rarely revealing what she knows of the future to anyone. Whenever she does reveal a premonition, it always passes to be true, such as when she guided Voana to the golden mists, having seen that these miraculous occurrences would bring Itone back. Because of this, despite her flight to Hades and isolation from Ceyr, Sohenas abilities hold much weight and respect amongst the Priestesses of all races. 

Backstory: Born alongside her Sister Voana, Sohena was gifted with the power of Foresight, and grew up knowing too much too soon, becoming a quiet and withdrawn woman because of this. Not as prone to fighting as Voana, Sohena preferred the comfort that came with hiding herself away with her books and thoughts, perhaps made too sombre by knowledge of her kin and their ultimate fates, or perhaps too silently overwhelmed by visions of terrible events to come to convey her deepest and darkest fears. When the Golden Orb perished, Sohena became largely ostracised by her kin, many of whom believed that she had foreseen the events and chosen not to warn anyone, whether or not this is true, no one, not even her Sister, knows. 

During the War in Heaven, Sohena hid herself away from the fighting; only appearing to wade through the bloody aftermath of her Sisters rage, following the Shield-Maiden Itones death, to guide Voana to the golden mists. Following the aftermath of the war and the birth of Aett and Hades, Sohena wandered alone amongst the ruins of Ceyr for a century before quietly escaping to the deep darks of Hades, provoking the sworn ire of the Angels of Aett who felt that her gift was safest with them. Her flight to Hades prompted a mass immigration of spirits to the realm of fire and ash due to the rumour that Sohena had chosen to live there because she had foreseen the triumph of the Demons of Hades. As it stands, no one knows Sohenas reasons for descending to Hades, as she guards herself and her words in Hades as closely as she did on Ceyr. 

Connections:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Oracles-Priestesses amongst the races of Elves and Humans who are gifted with a lesser ability of Foresight. Though she doesn't visit them in body on Ceyr, Sohena is believed to have the ability to communicate with them spiritually. Though she detests leaving her isolation, Sohena appreciates the prayers and offerings made to her by the Religion of Oracles, each word and bundle of incense received like a ray of sunlight from the world above she has departed from.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">ANCIENTS</span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Sister: Voana- Despite the fairly opposing personalities of the two, Sohena easily recognises her Body-Sister as the one closest to her, and is perhaps the only one of her kin that she would openly show affection. Being the clearer-minded and more even-tempered of the two Sohena has, in the past, felt the need to guide her Sister but has also willingly accepted Voanas protection. Having departed from Ceyr and not spoken to Voana since, Sohena still regards her fondly and would not hesitate to count Voana as one of her allies.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Danives- Not as sworn to honour or combat as her Sister, Sohena recognises the Gods talents, as well as their shared neutrality during the War in Heaven. Beyond this, Sohena doesn't regard Danives with neither disdain nor affection, and having surmised that he might one day seek her services, she prefers to keep her distance.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Hiraga- Having a clearer head for the workings of Ceyr, Sohena harbours something akin to respect for the once mighty Guardian of Nature. Sohena has, several times in the past, received premonitions which involved Hiraga significantly but Sohena is tight-lipped about them, as she is with near all of her visions. Having fled to Hades, Sohena doubts that she'll really come into contact with the Guardian.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Agimar- Possessing the gift of Foresight and residing in the same realm as the Ancient, Sohena is well aware of Agimars monstrous creations, and regards him and his projects with a great deal of caution. Knowing of his quiet ambition and talents for manipulation, and relating them to visions she has received in the past, Sohena prefers to keep her distance.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Yakushi- Having a great respect for talents of the mind, Sohena, in her younger days, harboured wishes that she might one day meet Yakushi. As she grew older and her gift of Foresight proved a burden, Sohena found herself in her weaker moments wishing for the Ancients presence, imagining that the Harvester of Knowledge would know and understand, and be able to comfort her. As the years passed, Sohena let go of such fantasies, and chose against seeking out the being when it came to light that she now walked freely among them. Nonetheless, she still harbours a deep respect for Yakushi.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Neveras- Having been visited by visions of the Ancient long before they even met, Sohena received the being with patience and a silent understanding upon their first meeting. Knowing of Neveras' affection for her, Sohena felt no small measure of guilt when she foresaw his banishment and, fearing the consequences of going against fate, chose to keep her silence.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-u"">UPSTARTS</span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Gaon Latze- Knows of the fisherman, and regards his skill with some level of respect, placated for now that such a talent seems to rest in the hands of a good heart.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Dust- Knows enough of the Upstart to not recognise him as a threat, rather she feels sympathy for him and empathizes with his preference for solitude.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Varavana- Foresaw the Upstarts birth and keeps the nature of Varavanas birth as as secret to herself, somewhat out of respect to the being himself and what he represents.</li></ul>  
Religion: Tales of Sohenas great gift for Foresight were passed from her kin to the mortals of Ceyr, becoming renowned especially within the Elven race. There are several untraceable stories across Ceyr of occurrences where Sohena is said to have spoken with Priestesses, both physically and mentally, because of this she became beheld by Priestesses everywhere as a patron of their spiritual Religion of the Oracles. Ultimately, Sohena became decorated as the God of Premonitions and Oracles, and offerings are made to her whenever Priestesses convene for worship or when they are commissioned to tell the future. Offerings are made to Sohena in the form of crushed lavender and sage burned as an incense. 

Nation: As the Religion of the Oracles is fairly widespread and Priestesses honoured as high members of society, Sohena does not dominate any single nation. However, her influence is most widespread in Elven nations, where the gift of Foresight amongst mortals is most common, and where several have claimed to have been visited by her. 

Other: Sohena currently resides in Hades, and similarly to how she acted on Ceyr, she largely keeps to herself and refuses to reveal anything she sees in her visions.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Itone, Minor Patron of Shield-Maidens"" type=""button"">Itone, Minor Patron of Shield-Maidens [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Name: Itone Isolfrodottir, Minor Patron of Shield-Maidens 
Age: Upstart 

Appearance: Short enough that it’s a fairly comical sight when stood next to her giant of a Wife; Itone is stocky in build and soft in face, having a comely beauty despite the faded scar that runs from beneath her left eye to the crook of her oval jaw. Her skin is a light-copper that sets off her hazel eyes attractively, and complements her dark-blonde hair that falls long and straight to her hips, usually arranged either tightly atop her head or in a complicated array of braids. For attire Itone favours simple cloth shifts and woollen tunics, past the prime of her Shield-Maiden days. When she does ride out, shield and sword in hand, Itone adorns herself with light mail and leather armour. 

Nature: Independent 
Personality: Raised in the ways of the Shield-Maiden Itone was expected to not only develop the skills of her Teachers but also adopt the attributes of them. As such, Itone is hardy in nature, serious in matters of home and social injustices and passionate in battle. When surrounded by friends she becomes softer, and around her Wife, Itone can be playful and even tender. However, in public she prefers to keep a solid and cool stance, especially in the face of Voanas kin who despise her kind. Nonetheless she’s a fairly friendly woman, especially to children, and is popular in the villages surrounding the cottage she shares with Voana. 

Skills and Abilities: As a mortal Shield-Maiden, Itone was strong in battle, and known for her fierce determination and sound strategy and logic on the battlefield. Following her rebirth as an Upstart, Itone has become more prone to exhaustion and exhibits signs of sickness now and then, possibly as an adverse effect to her strange circumstances. Due to this, officially Itone has hung up her shield and instead uses her logic to build community with the villagers near her home, as well as run a tight household for her and her Wife, weaving for income. However, as her and Voana are regarded as authority figures within their land, Itone is regularly called upon to address and settle disputes, proving her skill at diplomacy and council. In the event that bandits threaten the villages or a large fight breaks out Itone is quick to remind people of her Shield-Maiden days by taking her shield off the wall. 

Backstory: Born in the Northern territories to a Human family, Itone was the eldest of four daughters in a family of twelve, and thus learned to undertake a great deal of responsibility early on in her life. Following in her Mother and Grandmothers steed, Itone educated in the ways of the Shield-Maiden, training under the brunt of unrelenting and punishing Teachers, and growing into a strong, sturdy woman as well as a dependable leader. Belonging to a village commonly targeted by bandits, Itone was regularly defending her village, earning her scar during one skirmish and the appreciation of her village. Frustrated by the constant attacks, Itone lead a small force of Shield-Maidens and rode out to track down the bandits camp to destroy the nest. Clashing with the bandits at the camp, Itone and her forces were suddenly joined by Voana, a warrior of great skill who had roamed their land for close on four months by then. With the addition of Voana, the bandits were easily defeated and their bodies strung up by their ankles at the borders of the land by the advice of Voana and agreement of Itone, as a warning to other criminals. 

Voana returned with the Shield-Maidens to the village, expressing admiration for Itones skill in battle, Itone, flattered and impressed in kind, allowing the stranger to sup in the villages Halls that night, and many a night after in Itones own home. Many moons crested and soon the two women grew fond of each other to such an extent that Itone allowed Voana to carve her name into her shield. The women’s shared admiration of each other and comfort of each other’s company gave way to feelings of love and Voana, unused to such emotions and frightened by them, swiftly departed to re-join her kin, summoned back by news of the death of the Golden Orb. When the War in Heaven brought chaos to Ceyr and the Orcs to their borders, Itone fought to defend her village, falling in battle when a war-axe pierced through her shield, carving it in half and embedding itself into her neck. Resurrected by Voana and the golden mists, Itone was reborn as an Upstart, and has faced adversity from her Wife's kin as well as from her own grief, saddened as she was to see the years pass and her friends and family die.

Connections: Wife-Voana, God of Battle 

Other: Itone resented Voana a great deal following her rebirth as an Upstart, and reused to speak to her for many years following. As her family began to get older and Itone stayed the same, Itone accepted the comfort of Voanas arms, understanding her greatest fear of watching Itone as a mortal die before her eyes. The twos love eventually repaired and grew stronger, Itone marrying Voana and, upon the death of Itones Mother, the two women set out from her home village, building a cottage for themselves on the borders of the Free Forests in the North.

Though Itone herself is against the idea of being decorated as a God of anything, she's recognised in the Northern territories as a Minor Patron of Shield-Maidens largely due to her high standing as one in her mortal past. She doesn't receive any offerings, but young Shield-Maidens hold her with great respect and sometimes shout her name before charging into battle.</div></div></div>"
16788,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-02 15:59:00,Wordweaver,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Name: Agimar 

Age: Ancient 

Appearance: Agimar generally prefers the “disembodied voice approach”, but if he does need to show himself with a bit of spectacle for one reason or another, he likes taking the appearance of a towering, metallic humanoid with the head and tail of a snake, scythe-like claws, and the wings of a bat. His eyes appear to be a dull red, and they somehow give the impression of a void sucking in light. On the other hand, if he simply needs a way to interact with the mortal world, without any real need to put on a show, he can and will take the appearance of a normal human.

Nature: Demon 

Personality: Agimar, at first glance, doesn’t seem like the demonic type. He’s not quite sadistic, and he doesn’t even like Hades all that much. (It’s much too hot.) He is ruthless, of course, but that’s really just based in logic. You really can’t starve that hydra you worked so hard to make, and those mortals have such short lives anyway…. After you get to know him, however, it’s pretty obvious that he has a power complex. While Agimar isn’t exactly evil, he’s not really what you would call moral, either. He is driven primarily by a lust for power, and secondly by logic. He thinks of mortals and other spirits as pieces on a board, and while he would prefer to leave the board intact, he has no qualms about sacrificing a few pawns to achieve his own ends. 

Skills and Abilities: Agimar fancies himself to be a creator. While he can’t make something living, he will channel the prayers and emotions of his worshipers to forge fearsome monsters in the fires of Hades. While these creations are powerful and destructive, there always seems to be something missing inside their metallic bodies, and he obsessively seeks a way to make them truly live. 

Backstory: Agimar sided against the golden orb in the war, though he generally just hid on the sidelines and let everyone else do the work. He’s never really been in the spotlight, but he has patiently waited for opportunities to make his move. 

Connections: 
Danives: Agimar and Danives don't get along amazingly well. While nothing between them has been violent, Agimar considers Danives' followers to be a perpetual nuisance, due to their tendency to kill off his own contacts. Agimar is openly hostile, and it probably wouldn't take all that much of a disturbance for a fight between the two to break out. 

Hiraga: Agimar sees the use of Hiraga's role, but he isn't exactly enthusiastic about her policing. While they aren't the best of friends by any means, he would probably side with her in the event of a common threat. His attitude towards her is generally a kind of grudging respect, and he takes care to stay on her good side. 

Dust: Dust is, in most cases, largely beneath Agimar's notice. He has some sympathy for the upstart, but sees him as having no bearing on his plans one way or another. Agimar does take a slight interest in the Desolace, however, and would be interested in learning about what happened to it so long ago. 

Voana: Agimar and Voana aren't exactly enemies, but nobody could say they mix. Agimar prefers to keep his distance, mostly due to her temper and preference for open combat. He knows that she would consider his scheming to be cowardly, and it isn't usually the best idea to get in a fight with a war god.

Sohena: Agimar is rather paranoid with regards to Sohena. While he knows that she doesn't usually interfere with the world at large, it still worries him to have the details of his plots known to anyone, no matter how isolated. Knowing that she could bring an end to his machinations, and maybe even his life, he takes great pains to avoid antagonizing her.

Yakushi: Agimar is intrigued by her knowledge of magic and medicine, and while he knows they aren't on very good terms, he still harbors a secret hope that she might have an answer to his obsession. He carefully manages his relations with her, hoping that she might one day tell him some secret of life.

Varavana: 

Religion: Agimar’s following is relatively small, but it could easily be called a cult. He is worshipped as a kind of supreme source of power and authority, which pleases him to no end. He demands prayer, offerings, and sacrifices from his worshippers, all of which give him the power he needs to forge his creations. In return, he gives the most devoted of his followers control of monsters, armies, and the occasional artifact. 

Nation: While Agimar doesn’t have a full nation of worshippers, his devotees are often found in high places due to his gifts. As a result, he can often manage to manipulate smaller nations from behind the scenes in order to achieve his ends.</div>"

Dust, Minor God of the Desolace

<span class=""bb-u"">Age:</span>
Upstart

<span class=""bb-u"">Appearance:</span>
He takes the form of a goblin.  He is thin to the point of malnourishment, tiny by human standards, with unkempt black hair and a large nose and slightly perky pointed ears.  He has large, watery, dark brown eyes.  He's probably green-skinned beneath the dust and grime.  He wears a very worn, dull brown hooded robe that is several sizes too large and held by a simple hemp cord at the waist.  He would be easily mistaken for a mound of rags if it weren't for the small wooden sword at his hip.  The sword itself is simple, a training device or possibly a child's toy, but burned to the point of charcoal, with cracks along its surface that glow amber when he summons his power.

<span class=""bb-u"">Nature:</span>
Independent

<span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span>
He has spent countless ages alone and normally does not seek out humanity.  When he speaks, it's with a small, raspy, nasally voice that seems to apologize for intruding upon the world.  He has knowledge of life beyond the nothing of his land, and of the war that raged between the gods long ago, but no desire to become explicitly involved in either.

<span class=""bb-u"">Skills and Abilities:</span>
As a minor deity born of barren wastes and long-dead ancient ruins, he has some control over fire and ash.  His wooden sword can spout light and flames at will, and he can summon (or even transform into) whirling clouds of ash and dust to shield himself and confound opponents.  He can't be harmed by fire, whether natural or magical, and will simply burn to ash and reform himself.

<span class=""bb-u"">Backstory:</span>
Black winds howled and ashes roared throughout the desolate land.  A war, or possibly a blistering drought, or maybe unfathomable and unholy magics, had torn all life from it countless ages ago.  The intelligent races avoided it believing it cursed with the hungry souls of the dead, and all other life refused to enter its borders.  In the very center of the wasteland, witnessed by no mortal or immortal spirit, a golden light flickered briefly through the ebon storm.  The everlasting clouds parted, a single ray of sunlight breaking through for the first time in thousands of years.  Dust breathed in, the cinders filling his lungs and opening his eyes.  He looked up just as the light faded and the clouds churned across the sky once more.  He looked before him, mountains barely visible at the limit of his vision.  He walked.

<span class=""bb-u"">Connections:</span>
Danives - In Dust's wanderings, he is occasionally visited by the shadowed god of assassins.  As they wander open wastes and lifeless ruins together, Dust never responds to the cackling stories of death and bloodshed, but he never pushes the god away either.  He likely feels comfort in their similar abilities, and Danives would almost resemble a ""friend,"" if Dust would ever consider anyone as such.

Hiraga - Though in many ways the opposite of Dust and his realm, he accepts Hiraga as a far more extraordinary and powerful guardian than him.  Dust has felt her gaze on him as ages pass, and he respects her domains and never forces his lands into hers.  Anything that becomes waste does so without his command.

Agimar - Dust knows of him, and of his lust for creating life, and senses a wrongness in the dark god's nature.  Dust is one with the lifelessness of desolation and he believes the idea of forcing life into something unalive is objectionable.

<span class=""bb-u"">Religion:</span>
He was likely born from mortals' idle thoughts of a lonely god haunting the desolace, but has no followers of his own.  He leaves the higher gods to their petty disputes and wanders the land alone.

<span class=""bb-u"">Nation:</span>
His land has been dead and its history lost for centuries, and has no name beyond ""the desolace"" or ""the wastelands.""</div>"

She was sure to never be caught showing too much interest in the other race, by keeping to herself and practicing her own thing so when questioned she could easily counter them. Showing them her impressive skill of using the magical arts. But now after the death of the Golden Orb and in the current age, people know Yakushi as person, or whatever she is whether Mortal, Upstart or Ancient everyone knows that she is a powerful person in many ways. 

She is often known for her mass collection of knowledge in the world and knows about almost anything, whether its just from rumors or ancient texts she usually finds a way to verify facts from lies. She is generally told to be a helpful person to those who are able to find her but there have only been scattered reports about it in Ceyr, and is easily found by the mystical beast that follows her around which stands out like a sore thumb. It is easy to win her favor with the gifts of knowledge of any kind whether musical, artistic or anything else. Knowledge is the best way to win her over, but there are other more tricky ways to earn her favor, one which is to present rare items to her while another would be to give her animals of the same quality as the items. However, presenting fake items would indeed no doubt incite anger upon those who indeed try to trick her, causing her to simply at best give them a simple curse that would last for their life and leave. It is said that she has no permanent place in which she stays however often finds herself in forbidden, restricted and many other places that are often guarded and closed to the public. However if there is one thing that Yakushi is known for, it is her interest with the mortals that makes her an well known person.</div></div>

Its not that she is shy or reclusive, she is just more interested and watching how life goes it's natural flow while doing her own thing hoping people dont mind. It isn't often that you find her talking to people, and that is only when she finds the interesting. However she has a natural curiosity for things and easily is distracted by new things that peak her interest.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Skills and Abilities"" type=""button"">Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Her interest with the mortals has taught her many skills that she has honed to a satisfactory level for Yakushi's standards in which she is happy with. Scientifically, her skills in medicine are advance as it is one of the areas of interest that she likes to indulge in due to the expansiveness that area has and all the possibilities there is to simply solve a problem. Herbology is also included with her knowledge of medicine as she has found out that sometimes these natural remedies are matter in fact better than the artificial things that medicine can produce sometimes.  If we were to list all the skills that Yakushi knows it would take days, but we can simply assume that she is a very educated person both in skill and knowledge to be a doctor with the combined knowledge of an library. 

Outside her interest in the mortal world, her own personal skill that she proudly admits is that she has an impressive encyclopedic knowledge on about almost anything in general. More specific things will need more research and dedication to verify whether they are actual facts or simply nothing at all. Her interest in meddling around with the world has actually effect nations before when she given them tips to their enemies or a piece of knowledge that helped them advance, however she is only done this thrice which was when it was necessary. With her impressive amount of knowledge anything she generally likes to read and can remember anything with an acute accuracy, making her a very talented historian if it ever becomes needed. With her impressive mental forte she excels in the magical arts of many the many branches, however its obvious that she doesn't know all of them which have been kept hidden so well...</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Connections"" type=""button"">Connections [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Yakushi is honored and even at the worst acknowledged by mages, liches and necromancers to be the embodiment of knowledge and look up to her in times of trouble when stuck during a rut. She even has a small connection to all which magic runs through, no matter how tiny the connection she has to them.

Most of the relationships she has with other Ancients and Upstarts are mostly one-sided due to Yasuki's own curiosity, so she knows at least a little bit of information on all the ancients in Ceyr. However even then some of these facts about them are obvious or vague about them. With her own resources she often can dig deeper into the identities of other ancients with some difficulty depending of their power and threat that they present.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Ancients</span></span>
Danives: One of the gods that she is interested in, Yakushi is mostly intrigued by the fact that she often loses him due to his main power being able to turn invisible. Anything involved with him is interesting as it is enticing to see what incident will bring with him involved. The assassins that are the followers of Danives are no worries to her as she can overwhelm them with magic both by brute force and strategically as well. However its never bad to be cautious around him, so she usually remains discreet about her works about him. 

Agimar:
An ancient that she knows, who she knows that holds some power in the nations that his followers are in, most of them are people who are in high positions that allow him to manipulate a nation to some degree. While his powers not interesting in any way particular, she notes that his offensive abilities are something to watch out in a fight. Besides that he is not that interesting in many ways, however when she encounters one of his followers she does interfere whenever they are doing their little schemes. Outside messing with his followers she doesn't interact much with Agimar.

Hiraga:
Hiraga someone she notes to be a person of interest, Yakushi has known her for a long time and it isn't hard to know at least a little bit of the first spirit to live on Ceyr. She knows that Hiraga grants her followers the gift of reincarnation, however into different bodies which may be a good as well as bad thing depending on the scenario. Some of those forms that Yakushi knows her followers reincarnate into are  Dryads, Treants and similar creatures which helps aid Hiraga with the land. However outside generally knowledge about her, its best to not get in the way of her as she is an intimidating opponent if she ever becomes one. Rumors circulate about Hiraga's powers but she usually brushes them away til the proof shows up for her to verify them. On public terms she views Hiraga as a good friend and doesn't mind her company at all, Yakushi honestly wishes to spend more time on her but time simply doesn't permits.

Voana:
Voana... an impressive warrior and would even be greater if she had a level headed mind from Yakushi view point, as all she sees in Voana is brute strength. Besides her combat prowess, she acknowledges that she is like her opposite, being the opposite of focusing the mental arts and focusing on the body. She respects Voana for her strength in battle, and doesn't mess with much relating to the warrior unless she has a good reason to do so. Besides her impressive strength and being a intimidating opponent up in front, Yakushi has no worries for now about Voana.

Sohena:
An interesting Ancient that Yakushi is interesting in studying more about, mainly what she has learned through her precognition ability. So holds respect for Sohena as she could give Yakushi a run of her money if she tried hard enough, as she is a unique person with a talent she is interested in. Although she doesn't have many sources which can keep an eye on Sohena, she occasionally gets the word of her doing well if anything else. She is the most likely of Ancients besides Hiraga to have Yakushi befriend. 

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Upstarts</span></span>
Dust: ...Dust is an interesting individual that Yakushi is currently looking into, however she is definetely interested in him. A creature born from the death and destruction of a now barren land. A creature made from such a violent past is sure to be interesting and not to mention the inherited abilities that Dust earned from his creation. It is more or less a one sided interest from her and she silently watches him with tabs used to keep track of him.</div></div>

By being the one of its kind, Caliburn is a thing that people often do not see, as it is Yakushi's familiar as she is able to communicate to it and command it to do certain task.  The creature has its white coat with its noticeable ruby colored gem that it has on its forehead. Its two tails follow behind it as Caliburn is capable of using magic, of most of commonly used branches of magic, however only to the most basic degree. The only exception is that Caliburn is skilled with the use of light magic, both normal and holy as it is able to fend off the undead with some difficulty and can give minor blessings to people. These blessings are a form of holy magic that can also be put into the healing branch as they aften heal or improve the condition of people. With this in mind, if one who knew the creature and it's abilities one could say it could be distantly related to the unicorn or some other pure magical beast.</div></div>

Varavana brims with wisdom and compassion which belays his years as a child of the Golden One. He is greatly concerned with the fates of 'mortals', and in turn is incredibly eager when it comes to engaging with them - he has a problem turning down the opportunity to help someone in need, and may find himself being taken advantage of due to his naivete when it comes to mortal individuals and societies. He knows little, and cares little, for the affairs of gods but will not turn down the opportunity to talk with one of his siblings. This, however, may end up grating for the other individual, as he is rather...idealistic, to say the least.</div></div>

The physical being of Varavana is nothing more than an amorphous mass at the end of the day, 'preprogrammed' to replicate the shape and body non-spirit entities to a T. Oddly enough, Varavana may not 'copy' the appearance of any individual, appearing rather distinct no matter what creature he chooses to replicate. The current limitations on this ability lays in the size of the creature Varavana is attempting to shapeshift into, unable to become something like a fully sized dragon but easily capable of changing into a yeti or an ogre. For the most part, Varavana utilises this ability by mixing and matching, generally taking the appearance of a humanoid chimera of some description. His default 'mode' is something between a human and other mortal races with various other variables thrown in.

Varavana is highly empathic towards mortal races and creatures, radiating an unnatural charisma which, while not driving them to follow him on instinct, certainly makes it easier for him to talk with them. Non-sapient creatures rarely take issue with Varavana. Beyond his abilities as an Upstart, Varavana is exceptionally talented in agricultural matters, and knows how to get the most out of the land in any environment.</div></div>

Varavana is an entity born from the mud of the most fertile land on the three worlds, so the rather recent gossip goes. Another rumour claims that the young god is all that remains of a now dead, most-ancient solar deity, a perfect yet changing mass hatched from the old spirits corpse. Whatever the truth may be, Varavana could not say, for his memories are even younger than he is. 

His first memories are vague and feral, but over time become more clear - what he does know is that he spent his first years with no mortal interaction, only surrounded by animals, before he was come upon by a farmers son. Upon instinct he took the shape of the mortal boy, a human, and gained the mind of mortals. In the instant, he knew his name - Varavana - but that was all. He was taken in by the boys family, raised as one of their own.

It did not take too long for the parents to notice that while their birth son grew, Varavana remained the same. He too noticed this, coming to realise that his calling was elsewhere. He has since started travelling the world of Ceyr, and word has spread of him over the past twenty years, of the seemingly eternal youth who aids villages and towns in their time of need. He does not do this by direct intervention most of the time, but by helping the people help themselves, teaching ways to better live off the land and how to engage in healthy exchanges with local wildlife.

It is safe to say that where Varavana, the need for deities is reduced - if only somewhat -, something which few may not approve of...</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i"">Ancients</span> 
In Varavana's humble opinion, they are too steeped in their own antiquity. They are growing to be largely unnecessary, clinging to a past which they themselves lost. Not that he would ever let this view translate over to his interactions with them, that would be just rude.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hiraga:</span> She-Most-Ancient whom Varavana has an unending amount of respect for, despite their lack of interaction. Varavana's approach is similar to Hiraga's, but he has mortals as the primary focus, as well as being more concerned with individuals.

<span class=""bb-b"">Danives:</span> Varavana feels he should be opposed to the shadowy ancient, but cannot bring himself to be anything other than neutral towards him. His actions are never grevious, always slight - and his followers are too few in number to really call him a negative impact on Ceyr. As such, Varavana can only really offer a shrug.

<span class=""bb-b"">Voana:</span> Varavana has little to no knowledge of Voana, rarely interacting with warriors beyond stopping battles. From what he does know, it sounds like they would not get along.

<span class=""bb-b"">Agimar:</span> Varavana feels a slight hint of pity for the creator, but he cannot agree with what he would unleash upon the worlds, should he find a way to make his contraptions live. Were this to happen, Varavana would surely oppose Agimar's creations. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Upstarts</span>
The true brothers and sisters of Varavana, the 'new gods' as it were. He finds himself to be far more agreeable with them than any of the Ancients (minus maybe Yakushi).

<span class=""bb-b"">Dust:</span> Varavana likes the odd isolated spirit. Although he may not appreciate Varavana's optimism and conversational manner, the young upstart none the less appreciates any help he can get from Dust when traversing the wastes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Itone:</span> He views Voana's wife much in the same light.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gaon Latze:</span> What can Varavana say? Guy likes to fish. That's fine by him.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Religion:</span>

None. Has a small 'following' in the scholarly sense, keeping track of his movements. It is very likely that Varavana could find himself with a religion in a few years time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nation:</span>

N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span>
Among the youngest, yet one of the more well known, Upstarts. His habits of travelling and aiding others have launched him into popularity.</div>"

Age: Ancient

Appearance: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/9iewEgm.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">(His angelic form. He has a Demon form and a True form, the only differences are that he has evil-ish looking wings, angelic wings, or one of each)</span>

Nature: Independant

Personality: Neveras is a quirky kind of Angel, or Demon. Yes, he believes he is both, but he calls himself Neveras the Angelic Demon. He can be a smartass, a jokester, he is very unpredictable... and even when faced with the impossible, he still thinks he can do the impossible. He can be silly, perverted, macho, and even greedy, but Neveras is only expressing the many traits of the Mortals. For he was created in their realm, on Ceyr, and believes that he is the one to take the Mortals side in discussions, out casting the Creator, even though the Creator created him. Neveras seeks to save the Mortals and bring them back to a flourishing time. However, with the obtaining of all the Mortals feelings, emotions, and personalities, it may have become a backfire, as when he escaped the forbidden sanctuary (Which he calls the Pit), he may have either came out enraged... or uncaring. He may have became greedy with the want for power, or came out just to be out, and no longer cares for his purpose.

Skills and Abilities: Neveras can not be killed by any Upstart, and can only be killed by Mortals. By Ancients (Who remember the cursed seal enchantment), he can only be sealed back inside of his banished realm, which is just a spiritual sanctuary where he is bound eternally until released.

-Neveras has an ancient weapon, which is only a spiritual weapon that he can form into any style he wishes (May it be a sword, a knife, a spear, etc) which he chooses to be a sword. This sword can kill any Angel or Demon, but not those of pure heart. It is also the weapon that Mortals can wield and kill Neveras with it, but in a Mortals hands it can do nothing else. If Neveras dies, the sword dissipates.

-Without Neveras' sacred weapon, he can create a spiritual weapon that has only the power to resist an Angel or Demons attacks, but the spiritual weapon does not give him strength or invincibility or anything, as it only acts as a shield or another sword to clash with another sword. With both weapons, Neveras can take on multiple opponents. However, he is still not all powerful, both weapons only give him the ability to fight multiple Spirits, as with just one or the other weapon, Neveras is weak against multiple opponents.

-Neveras has the ability to heal Mortals from grievous or light wounds, but can not bring them back from the dead.

-Neveras has a created inability, where if he escapes from his Forbidden Sanctuary, without being released, he is still bound in his chains. From this, he is slower, weaker, and does not have his outward abilities such as he is able to pull his Sacred Sword to his hand, locate his sword wherever it may be, and heal Mortals. When he is still bound in spiritual chains, an Upstart can banish him back to his Forbidden Sanctuary, if they know the enchantment.

-His ability to kill other Spirits is defined by how much power he has, which is from how many followers he has. With little to no followers, he can strike any Upstart as long as he has his weapon. The more power he gains, the more likely he can take on even the most powerful Ancients/Gods.

Backstory: The reason for his creation was because Neveras was supposed to create balance between the other Spirits, making sure neither became more powerful than another. Neveras was supposed to be powerful enough to take out those who seek to be One God, or be the complete powerful rulers on Ceyr, this made sure any Mortal and any Spirit may choose the way the life they wish without forcing all Mortals or Spirits to live One Life. If Neveras ever turned towards his darker side, becoming too greedy and wanting to be the very thing he was created to take down, then it was for the Mortals, the Mediums to be granted the ability to outright strike Neveras, for he has no power against them. However, during the battle of Heaven, it was made as the decision to banish Neveras for all eternity. Long before the decision was made, there was always an argument over Neveras' true purpose, for he was unlike the others. Many thought of him as a bad batch, maybe a Spirit who would find a way to kill them all, gain more power. Maybe it was their greed, or their fright, but along with the creation of Neveras... all of the Ancient Spirits were given the knowledge of the seal enchantment, and the enchantment to release him... which Mortals can use, but that meant Neveras also had that knowledge. Unfortunately, any Mortal he gave that knowledge to is surely gone due to the events that occurred while he was sealed away, which is why he never escaped, until now.

The only reason, in fact, that Neveras escaped his eternal containment was because an Ancient (Ancient Angels Neveras sees as ArchAngels) Spirit must be made to stand guard over the spiritual realm of his banishment, giving it power to hold him and keep him weak. But who ever was made to keep the seal strong, was lost, went away, or died. Neveras never got the name of his guard, but over the time he gained more power, and the seal became weaker. Until he escaped, but because of his escape, the seal had burst, which alerted all the Spirits. Telling them Neveras has escaped, and he could gain the power to kill them. Especially in a time like this, where the Spirits are divided, Neveras sees he has been gone for far too long, and everything is unbalanced by a severe degree. However, even aside from the chains, Neveras has not regained his full power. And he won't. Because Neveras was made for the Mortals, he must have followers to regain his true power. He must have many Mortals to use the enchantment to break his chains, and only then, can he find his sacred sword. The sacred spiritual weapon that was also locked away, like him, but no Ancient is left that even knows where it is.

Connections: Hiraga - They have somewhat similar beliefs, where as even if related... if other spirits desecrate something they call sacred, they will fight back. But, not exactly. Neveras still had the views that Mortals can do as they wish as long as they don't hurt each other. While not an enemy, he still acts friendly. (Knows the Seal)

Danives - Neveras and Danives seemed never really seemed to be at each others throats. Even though Neveras fought in the war and Danives tried avoiding it, they never seemed to cross each others paths as enemies in any way shape or form. They considered each other Friends in the past. (Knows the Seal)

Voana - Sees her as a rival and fears there will always be a battle when their eyes meet. Always thought that Voana thought like the others that banished him, one that will become greedy and try to kill all the others. (Does not know Seal)

Sohena - Neveras always had a bit of a crush on her. Before the banishment and War of Heaven, he'd often visit her and bug her; not in a heartless way. She, out of everyone else, knew Neveras wasn't evil or able to become greedy. He was just a smart dumbass looking for fun. ...While he had a crush, she knew, but he never pushed too far. Neveras still has a gentlemanly side to him. (Knows the Seal)

Agimar - Neveras doesn't like him. He doesn't hate him, and he's not first on the list to die, per se... but Neveras just saw him as the asshole that thought with ""It's just business."" (Knows the Seal)

Yakushi  - One of the girls Neveras liked to poke and prod, and by poke and prod, he would always pop in to be silly and make games out of who knows more. Neveras doesn't see her as an enemy, and hopes that they can become friends in this new time. (Does not know Seal)

(Upstarts not listed due to not knowing of each others existences, but Upstarts still get an overwhelming feeling of Neveras escaping his Pit, and are given the knowledge of him and what he can do)


Religion: Neveras once had a scripture on his religion, but if it still exists... it would be a miracle through all of the death and chaos. It told the Mortals of Neveras, that he was a great Warrior who fought for the sanctity and life of all mortal men, who would not allow Fate to determine their lives, but that they would live the way they wished, but they could not harm one another or create any force against another. The scripture still remains, and few Mortals know of it, but they don't know what they should believe.</div>"

Myra: Goddess of Love, Beauty, Attraction, Light, and Fertility

Nature: Myra-God, Vyra-Demon 


Personality: Myra and Vyra cannot be any more different. Myra is a trusting, smart, and kind. She loves to teach lessons and morals by disguising herself as a stranger, usually a mortal elder of some kind. But more than that, she absolutely loves attention and worship from her mortal subjects. Getting on her good side is easy, getting on her bad side can be just as easy. Mocking and extreme cases mortals gaining too much attention for their beauty. One thing she hates more than that is anyone who chooses her twin sister over herself. Myra is naïve and easy to trick, especially by her sister, which is her greatest weakness. Despite not being much of a schemer, she will actively pursue or assist plots to get at her sister.

Vyra is cunning, manipulative, and ambitious. She loves to plan schemes and assist mortals with various plots of intrigue by disguising herself also. She loves attention and worship as well and just like her sister, she hates being mocked and will go to great lengths for revenge. She hates her sister and anyone who chooses her twin over herself. Vyra's following is considerably smaller so her magical strength is limited as oppose to her sister. She, too, will actively pursue or assist plots to get at her sister.

Skills and Abilities: Both sisters have the ability disguise themselves in any form they desire. Animal, fawn, human, whatever. They use this ability to primarily walk amongst the mortals to manipulate things here and there. Outside of that, the twins have their own, but similar power to manipulate something. Myra can manipulate light and can offer healing magic to cure aliments, both for Gods and mortals. She can also manipulate mortals, and possibly upstarts, to encourage love, attraction, and good feelings. Vyra can manipulate darkness and can curse, Gods or mortals, with disease and pestilence. Vyra can also manipulate mortals, and possibly upstarts, to encourage hate, jealousy, and anger. It should be noted that Vyra's magical strength is hampered by the difference of followers between herself and her sister.


Backstory: A product of the next generation of Ancients, Myra and Vyra were born from the relationship between Sol, God of Light, and Luna, Goddess of Darkness. The twins inherited their parent's power and developed their own. Myra was the firstborn and was given all the praise of a firstborn child after a successful, clean birth. Vyra wasn't born until a full day of labor after her sister, and caused great harm to Luna during birth. Vyra did not receive the same praise her sister had received and has spitted her ""perfect"" sister ever since. 

As the twins aged, Sol found it easy to favor Myra as a child. She was showed compassion and warmth towards others, just like her father. While Sol still did love her other daughter, she was often ignored by the God of Light. Luna did not favorite any of her children but she did find herself in Vyra, as she was mostly quiet, kept to herself, and showed great feats of intelligence early on in her life. While Vyra always appreciated the love her mother had for her, she hated Sol for favoring her sister. 

The twins found competition between each other to be very common. Almost everything would turn into a competition as each competed for the attention and praise the winner would receive. Music, hunts, great feats... It didn't matter what it was, the sisters turned everything into a competition. Eventually this drove Vyra to try and take the life of her sister. It nearly worked had it not been for the intervention of some other Ancient God (I leave this open for whoever). The aftermath of this all tore the family of four apart as they argued over Vyra's plot. With Sol wanting blood and Luna defending Vyra with her life, their marriage broke apart and soon after, their relationships with their children deteriorated as well. Sol hated Vyra and Luna was ready to defend Vyra. Vyra, in turn, hated Sol for demanding her life and possibly that of her mother's. Myra hated Luna for defending Vyra and Vyra for obvious reasons. Even Sol and Myra had a bit of a falling out as they would argue over how far should Sol punish Luna. Myra hated her mother, but she was still her mother. 

So the family separated and they all sought their own independent lives, with the exception of the twins as the death of the Golden One offered new opportunities in the mortal world. Myra sought to bring all mortals together, under her name and worship. She offered love and gratitude to those who looked to her. Vyra sought to undo her sister's work and make her own following. In both cases, mortals could provide the twins with strength and power that they did not have otherwise. Ever since the fall of the Golden One, they have only grown in strength, not weakened.

Connections: This is where you put your relationships with other player-controlled characters, including friendships and rivalries. It is encouraged that your character is acquaintances with at least one other. 

Religion:

--<span class=""bb-i"">Light's Warmth</span>: Is a special sect of religion and mythology devoted entirely to the Goddess of Beauty, Myra. Devotion to the <span class=""bb-i"">Light's Warmth</span>sect does not restrict the mortal to worship only that sect but rather, regular clergy are allowed to pursue other devotions to other gods or goddesses if they desire. Just note that you may not be Myra's favorite. Priests of Myra, devout their entire lives to Myra and no other god or goddess can be recognized by the faithful. As a testament to their devotion, they give up their previous lives and previous loves to Myra. Myra grants her priests great happiness in their act and bestows upon them the gift of healing.

--<span class=""bb-i"">Night's Solace</span>: Is best described as a cult rather than a religion. Membership is considered a scared secret but the work that they do is not supposed to be. Once you devout yourself to Vyra's cult, there is no going back and you may only recognize her as your goddess (special exceptions made to Danives). A member worships Vyra by conducting plots of intrigue such as: assassinations, political coups, war, and many other dark deeds. As a result, the <span class=""bb-i"">Night's Solace</span> actually gains considerable ""donations"" for their acts of intrigue to help put people into power or remove other people from this mortal plane. Vyra is said to assist her followers in their acts of intrigue and does favor them greatly. 

Nation: If applicable.

Shoshar's body is that of a finned serpent, always wet with a layer of water. He changes his size if he needs to fit into a compact space, but prefers the spectacle of a monstrous size to crush ships and intimidate mortals.</div></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span> God

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality"" type=""button"">Personality [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Ever since he was created, Shoshar's heart has been encrusted with a painful frost. He is proud, petty, bitter, jealous, quick to anger, and holds eon-spanning grudges. Unfortunately for him, his pride makes him vulnerable to flattery and temptation as much as insult, leaving him manipulable, even for an ancient being. Despite his emotional and reactive nature, Shoshar is also committed to what he sets his mind to, no matter how angry it makes him. This can make Shoshar's retribution slow in some cases, but no less devastating.

Where Shoshar's personality is redeeming is his commitment to his sphere of influence; water. He is dutiful in nurturing the kingdoms of the deep and tossing vapour into the air to feed the rivers and wetlands of the world as if bound by an ultimate contract. Even the gravest of insults cannot stray him from such tasks.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Skills and Abilities"" type=""button"">Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">As his name suggests, Shoshar holds a degree of power over all water, whether it be in the ground or the air, but is fearful to separate from it at all due to the heat of Aun thawing and killing him. In this, he can control the way water flows to affect tides, current, as well as temperature and physical state. In the local sense, he can control water to the point of making liquid water flow in flying eddies and streams through the air and to use it as a means of transport. If he is out of the water, he is fond of getting around by flying through the air encased in a layer of water to keep his icy body cool. It is said that the clouds in the sky are created in the wake of Shoshar meandering through the skies either as part of his duties to toss water over Ceyr.

His scope of power makes him a force to be reckoned with if one is near the ocean, a large lake or a river, though his emotional nature limits his potential for conquest. The only territory he claims fully is that of the seas. Even though he commands rainfall, he cannot preside over the sky or the land.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">It is said that Shoshar was born of the coldest parts of Ceyr's oceans. His body was initially wrought of ice, but changed to flesh as he consumed the creatures of the seas and rivers. The ice lives on as part of his being, however, keeping him from leaving the water for fear of melting. The Golden One gave him company in the form of more sea creatures, complimented by a reclusive underwater sentient race of cephalopods, the Reods. Most of these creatures are scarcely seen by other races unless they are fished. With the power bestowed upon him, Shoshar nurtured all of these creatures as his only friends. Few if any other spirits would suffer the cold, crushing depths that made up his home, so a loneliness hangs about him, perpetuated by his insufferable personality.

When the Golden One suddenly cut itself off from all the spirits, Shoshar feared that he could not protect his realm of the sea any longer. He was thrown into a fit of paranoia and took to the War in Heaven as a wildcard, viciously defending his holdings. His madness grew to the point where destruction would be wrought upon the lands in the form of floods, massive tides, cyclones, and tsunamis. This was partly out of fear for the safety of his own domain and partly out of jealousy for those who could walk freely upon land without the gaze of Aun threatening their existence. He fought for both sides at different times, a victim of trickery and manipulation. However, his ideals remained with protecting his realm, not to allegiance to the Golden One or ambition to harvest what was left of its power.

All that is known of what became of Shoshar after the Golden One's death is that the seas suddenly calmed. There were no more storms, no rain, even. A worldwide drought stood for a full year. Shoshar had frozen himself to the bottom of the ocean, having expended his rage and shut down. He took the time to ponder, he perhaps spoke to spirits who sought him out. Whatever conclusions he came to while slumbering for a year have been kept a closely guarded secret, one of many that he keeps. As he returned gradually, his madness had been levelled. He was balanced in his approach to those on land, no longer terrorising them out of his own fear.

The ice around Shoshar's heart has mostly remained intact up until this point, retaining his personality and perpetuating loneliness. He has connections to other spirits, but right now he is mostly concerned with his duties and has little patience for anyone. News of the Golden One returning is something that he has deemed as being in his interests to hear about, but he is wary of trickery after being manipulated in the war for so long. Not that there is much he has done about his flaws that allowed such manipulations.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i"">Hiraga:</span>
Being that nature and water are spheres intertwined and overlapping in many ways, so too are Hiraga and Shoshar. Of all the ancients, Hiraga is perhaps the only one who can placate Shoshar with a stern word. Hiraga holds some kind of control over Shoshar that keeps him from acting against her. The exact nature of this control is yet another secret that Shoshar keeps to himself, but it has halted Shoshar's retribution on many occasions. Shoshar's reaction to Hiraga's presence and influence appears to be begrudging, bound by an agreement signed ages ago.

<span class=""bb-i"">Danives:</span> (If Vilhelm changes his mind)
As the depths of the ocean are a realm steeped in shadows, Danives is sometimes seen slinking through in the presence of Shoshar, shaping various creatures without permission. The shadow god's tricks and games rapidly grate on Shoshar's patience, no doubt providing Danives with no end to fun. After at least a century of being the butt of Danives' jokes for the sake of goading a reaction, Shoshar has taken to the habit of merely grumbling and trying to ignore the ancient.

<span class=""bb-i"">Voana:</span>
Shoshar and Voana have the same understanding as any general and the sea. Shoshar's realm is often used as a platform to defend and attack, but it is not a territory that can be held. She has not been miserly in her offerings to him for permission for safe passage on ships, and has thus not invoked his wrath. Such is the extent of Shoshar's interests in mortal conflicts.

<span class=""bb-i"">Sohena:</span>
Sohena and Shoshar have barely even been introduced. Her presence always garners anxiety in Shoshar, her natural serenity unnerving. No doubt Sohena herself is not the kind to socialise with a wrathful god of water.

<span class=""bb-i"">Agimar:</span>
Agimar was responsible for manipulating Shoshar to unwittingly carry out his agenda on a couple of occasions. Shoshar himself is uninterested in his work and tends not to socialise with him. Agimar himself has never directly offended Shoshar, as his scheming was never revealed where Shoshar was involved.

<span class=""bb-i"">Yakushi:</span>
If there was ever a more annoying, relentless, and never ending torment for Shoshar's patience, it is the incessant inquiries of Yakushi. Being proud of his realm, Shoshar initially satisfied much of Yakushi's curiosity about the oceans, wary to keep important secrets to himself. Unfortunately, her hunger for knowledge was insatiable and Shoshar began to cast her away in impatience. Yakushi's questions did not stop, however. She kept coming back and attempting to pick Shoshar's brains further. Thankfully her mercurial attention cuts her questions short after a while. Despite the annoyance of her presence, Shoshar secretly regards Yakushi with an odd fondness, perhaps for relieving his loneliness at times. It is probably why he does not feel justified in attacking her for her insolence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Neveras:</span>
Shoshar and Neveras are not on good terms. In protection of mortals during various conflicts, Shoshar and Neveras did battle in an attempt to turn Shoshar's wrath aside. Neveras generally won, making their relationship adversarial. Shoshar had a say in detaining Neveras during the War in Heaven, but at a point during the following years, knowledge of the seal enchantment was taken from him by Hiraga under circumstances that Shoshar, again, keeps a secret.

<span class=""bb-i"">Myra:</span>
Shoshar is jealous of the joy spread by Myra's open and warm heart. This makes interactions with her curt on Shoshar's part. Shoshar can barely stand her presence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Vyra:</span>
While Myra would barely have the opportunity to interact with Shoshar due to his view of her, Vyra, her twin, actively seeks Shoshar out when it suits her to have an the Water Dragon on his side. Shoshar may or may not be aware of how hollow her interactions with him are, but she is deceitful enough to charm the sea serpent until he is wrapped around her little finger like a ring. In that sense, Shoshar is a victim of Vyra's machinations when others are not there to talk some sense into him.

<span class=""bb-i"">Praeth</span>
Some spirits may have forgotten Praeth and his machinations amongst mortals, but Shoshar's memory falters not. Back before he was banished, Shoshar regarded Praeth with some disdain for giving up the power bestowed to him, all to live amongst the mortals as if pretending to be one of them. Shoshar is not aware that he had returned, however.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i"">Varavana:</span>
Some mortal legend. They have never personally met. Shoshar has little interest in changing that himself.

<span class=""bb-i"">Dust:</span>
Dust's influence is barely apparent wherever Shoshar is present. The water dragon is not even aware of his existence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Itone:</span>
Shoshar is actually unaware that Voana is even married, much less that this Itone, an upstart, is her partner. Having never known true love or marriage beyond watching mortals making cold plans and arrangements to continue bloodlines, Shoshar is bound to be confused by their unorthodox pairing of sexes.

<span class=""bb-i"">Gaon Latze:</span>
Shoshar has never shared his version of the story of Gaon Latze's ascent to power, even to Gaon Latze himself. The encounter with the now upstart obviously had a profound impact on Shoshar's view of mortals, enough to make him spare the child's life. However, after the fact, he has had little interaction with the upstart. The most popular legend for the reason of Shoshar's gift to Gaon Latze is that the fisherman's conviction resonated with Shoshar's own, causing the god's heart to partially thaw for a moment.</div></div>

He is seen as the true sovereign of the sea and the storms, and they pay their respects to him. In order to secure a save voyage across a body of water, Shoshar must be appeased by a fruit of the land that he cannot reach himself. This can be an animal or a plant sacrifice. Failure to make a sacrifice puts a ship or a coastal or river city at risk of facing Shoshar's anger.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Nation"" type=""button"">Nation [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Shoshar's influence is widespread enough, but his true nation is made up of hidden kingdoms under the sea that few enough mortals are aware of. A community of intelligent, cephalopod-like humanoids known as the Reods tend to their underwater agriculture in peace and harmony under Shoshar's watchful eye. The only connection, if any, which they have with the land is the occasional Reod druid of Hiraga among them to aid in nurturing nature in seas. They are a reclusive and secretive people, avoiding conflict and contact with surface dwellers, but their generosity and kindness far surpasses their patron's in most cases.</div></div></div>"

Praeth conducts his posture carefully depending on his situation, able to became a feeble coward, a towering commander, or no different from the man beside him, should he desire.  Praeth continually searches for new experiences, anywhere from simply working under an old fisherman to creating and empire of wealth to enacting the plotting of a politician to leading a nation of men into greatness, or back into groveling poverty. Praeth has a strong awe for the world, and spends most of his time travelling to experience the world’s beauty, every facet of every corner known to god or man.</div></div>

Physically, Praeth is considered ridiculously powerful in the mortal realm, but in comparison to many gods, his strength would amount to that of a child. Accordingly, Praeth must rely on skill alone in fighting other gods. Inventing and experimenting with numerous techniques and methods similar to eastern style fighting.

Praeth is weak, not quite as weak as an upstart, but comparatively, he is physically incapable of head-on brute force. Rather, Praeth's specialty is in the diversity of his fighting styles, the variety of weapons he can use, and the redirection of one's power.  Generally speaking, the more an ancient relies on pure power, the stronger Praeth is.



From the beginning, Praeth obsessively collected experience in every action and lifestyle belonging to the material world, he journeyed to the ends of existence and meddled in every aspect of mortal life. In any and all practical skill, Praeth can be considered an artisan, from cooking to medicines, he is skilled and reliable.

Praeth has isolated his existence from both mortal and spirit, thus, even his existence among the gods is widely questioned. Praeth has never gone by the same name in the mortal world for any two lives, and though the alias may be famed, he himself, is an unknown entity to the mortal realm. Thus he has no power fluctuation, nothing his strength is bound to. Likewise, he is incredibly weak for a spirit.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">From the beginning of his existence only shortly after the original ancients, Praeth attempted the existence of a mortal; leading the mortals to discovery of many methods of survival, agriculture, and eventually, advanced civilization. He was the monolith of growth for the mortal races, and at first, Praeth was enthralled with becoming an idol to the mortal realm, his brash arrogance and pride brought other gods to dislike him and his direct meddling with mortals. Eventually, Praeth was banished, disappearing from existence for eras before returning hollowed and haggard.

Rejected and forgotten by his brothers and sisters, Praeth remained among the humans, living and dying thousands of lives, wandering the awe-inspiring world. Over time, Praeth came to be content with his existence: having loved hundreds of times, experienced the loss of a thousand lovers, having served thousands, having thousands serve him, having begged for food, having supplied food to beggars, carnal desires, purity, kindness, hate, the aspects of the world went on endlessly.

Praeth slowly grew, not only in indifference but passion for the world as it was. Each and every part of the world required his attention, and in the end formed a gorgeous puzzle of intricate beauty and content. For Praeth, the bitter cold was just as attractive as the brisk warmth of spring, he worshipped creation and came to love it. In this sense, Praeth soon came to love mortals as well, each story interesting him, each life a precious gem. With hundreds upon thousands of years amongst the mortals, Praeth was able to ease his way into any one mortals life, his empathy grew as well as his skill in dealing with people.

Praeth’s brash, young personality slowly ebbed away, giving way to a more laid back and soft attitude. Like a stone being polished, he slowly became silk-like in nature, his pale eyes lost their piercing vigor and gained a calming feature, his enigmatic smile becoming softer and more kindly. He would not be recognized by the spirits that had banished him and he holds no bitterness towards them.

When the golden orb abandoned the spirits, Praeth failed to take up arms, believing himself incapable of aiding such a cause. When the golden orb was destroyed, Praeth mourned as the mortals were massacred, engulfed in sorrow, he aimlessly wandered amongst the surviving mortals. Praeth began to aid in mending Ceyr, giving mortals a nudge in one direction or another to rebuild an even more gorgeous world.</div></div>

Connections:
Praeth was able to discern little, staring at the stars from his mortal standing, and his existence is practically forgotten or of no circumstance to spirits as he mingles purely with mortals  

Religion: None whatsoever, he is unknown to mortals and most spirits

<span class=""bb-b"">Centuries have passed</span> since the War in Heaven, and Ceyr's wounds have only begun to close and scar. Great canyons forcibly gouged out by powers incomprehensible still crisscross the planet as it tries to get rid of them, but that would take many millennia. Mortal civilizations were utterly destroyed during the climactic battle between the Golden One and its great and terrible children, and even under the wisdom of gods they still cannot compare to the greatness of their ancestors. Where are the skyships they used to conquer the very skies? Where are the great arcologies, with societies where one might live amongst millions but still find genuine fulfillment of self? They are gone, and some for good. Humans, dwarves, orcs and elves and other races have meekly crawled back to the surface from the deepest caves, holding only scraps of the legacy of their great grandparents. In their desperation, they scurry around the ruins of once-great cities, finding ancient knowledge to rediscover and remaster as they begin to reforge what was lost.

But it is not only the mortals who have suffered from the death of their creator, the Golden One. The ancient spirits used to be able to crack whole continents, but now can only destroy cities -- and even that takes whole minutes to complete; for all magic was and still is tied to the essence of the Creator. What few are left of the great body count the Golden One's scythe reaped from their numbers during the War in Heaven feel regret, from killing their Mother and Father; remorse, from their inaction when their brothers and sisters took up arms; or sorrow, from not having done enough to protect the Golden One.

No mortal inhabits the new realms of Aett, Realm of Love, and Hades, Realm of Hatred, for these are the domains of the spirits. Angels in the former want to see the Golden One live again, but neither the gods nor the demons believe it can be done. The gods of Ceyr, Realm of Life, have decided that they cannot dwell in the past, and must forge on to a new future, however bleak it is; but the angels and demons believe this to be foolish, for what are they without the Golden One? And the demons create the most terrible of artifacts and dabble in creation -- something which only the Golden One could do -- in an attempt to emulate their Creator, and perform the most gruesome and disgusting of magics to meet their goals, arguing that the end justifies the means; but the angels and the gods believe this to be blasphemy, in addition to simply being repulsive, arrogant and insufferably pretentious.

But for all their conflicts, the ancient spirits have one clear desire in mind: a return to the glory they once knew, when the land wasn't cracked and rivers of light still flowed from their benevolent Creator onto Ceyr.

Only five dozen ancient spirits remain, out of many thousands, and they are all so weak. Survivors of a conflict that should not have been. Doomed to a forsaken future, haunted by a happy past, and living in a depressing present.

But there is hope.

There is a summons to the Tower of Broken Dreams, a gargantuan, ancient structure of glass, marble and sapphire on Ceyr once utilized by a close group of ancient spirits in an age long forgotten. Who they were and how they used the place is irrelevant, but it is remarkable that the building still stands, given the War in Heaven, and the tithes demanded by time as it goes by. The message, conveyed by Thirianna, figurehead of the angels, invites all the children of the Golden One -- her fellow angels, the gods, the demons and even the upstarts -- to discuss the future.

She claims the dismembered corpse of the Golden One stirs in the void between the three worlds of Aett, Ceyr and Hades; she claims that the Origin's magnificent soul is reforming. She speaks of the impossible, that the Creator is rising from its grave. Indeed, this is something to bring the fractious natures of angel, god, demon and upstart together as simply Spirits united under Its All-knowing Gaze. 

As a spirit, a direct child of the Golden One, it is imperative that you attend. Journey to the Ullanor Wastelands, enter the Tower of Broken Dreams, and take a seat. Fate needs to be discussed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tower of Broken Dreams, Ceyr</span>
—————————————————————————

At the crests of the dunes, the desert breeze caught the red sand and made sprays of them that diffused elegantly with the hot air. Aun, mother star of Ceyr, looked on harshly through nigh-cloudless skies at the desolate landscape that belied little of its glorious past, when its sand was fertile soil, and made up rolling hills and plains instead of featureless dunes whereupon an abundance of wretched, low-bellied creatures like scorpions and snakes now crisscrossed their soft surfaces. Indeed, this was wild country that tested the mettle of even the hardiest of creations that tried to make a living here, as evidenced by a lone juvenile <span class=""bb-b"">Ironwood</span> tree in the distance, its dead, black branches swept with sand, and its body half-buried in the powder. Fitting that a kilometer underneath its roots, the ancient city of Roma, capital of the human <span class=""bb-b"">Imperium Ferrum</span>, lay in deathly slumber: the tree that they made a proud icon of in the past now marked their graves in the present.

But breaking the monotony of sands and scattered, ominous objects in the <span class=""bb-b"">Ullanor Wastelands</span> was a gleaming tower of white that stretched almost to the clouds. Supported by giant buttresses that curved as they tapered towards the very top of the structure, Aun's light caught the rounded gemstones that regularly broke the smoothness of its surface -- rubies, emeralds, amethysts, but sapphires consisted the most of them -- and arrayed a rainbow of colors to anyone looking at the tower from any direction where they could see it. And at its foot, there was an obvious depression of the sand that surrounded it, obviously not a natural work but one that allowed access to the heavy double-doors that consisted much of its entrance. Made with marble as with most of the structure and gilded with gold, a book's worth of runes was etched onto the doors' surfaces, but the most meaningful ones roughly read: ""Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.""

While its superficial message was obvious, the unpleasantness that was life after the War in Heaven made <span class=""bb-b"">Vaul</span> muse for a moment of its deeper meanings, before gesturing with a flick of his wrist and setting aglow the runes, the myriad characters -- each not just a letter but a whole concept unto itself -- lighting up in clockwise manner. The <span class=""bb-b"">Elven God of Smiths</span> found his eyes following every activating rune, until blue luminescence covered the entirety of the doors, then was suddenly extinguished. He idly put a foot back a pace as the locking mechanism depressed the doors inward and finally parted them away and into ports in the walls, revealing a rather spartan foyer whose only eye-striking object was the beginning of a long, winding staircase that spiraled towards the the very top of the Tower of Broken Dreams.

Vaul felt annoyance tug at the back of his heart as he activated the lumen globes that filled niches in the wall at intervals. His armor, made of the finest mithril and decorated with reliefs that portrayed in himself in baroque sculpture as he was written in the grandest of Elven epics, bent like a second skin and made no sound as he skipped every other step in his impatience, such was its quality. The lumen globes were the only source of light inside of the Tower, save for the opening at the very end towards where the staircase gently tapered towards, wherefrom Aun's light poured in rays. There were one thousand, one hundred eleven steps to make in order to reach the rooftop, but Vaul's feet, in his haste, landed on only half that number. And when he surmounted the final step, the frown on his face contrasted with the smile of the figure at the opposite side of the amphitheater of sorts, leaning against the colonnaded parapet.

""Thirianna,"" Vaul said, the name uttered with ambivalent colors of hatred and jealousy, compassion and love, relief and regret. ""I have never been a fan of bothersome theatrics.""

The angel but fluttered her magnificent wings and smiled wider into a grin. Crowned by hair of gold, locks exquisitely curled and long as they fell upon her back and ample chest, with a soft face, deep eyes, and lips whose smiles promise everything, and frowns inspire guilt and broken hearts, this was <span class=""bb-b"">Thirianna</span>, the <span class=""bb-b"">Guardian Arch-Angel</span>. Clad in white sleeveless robes that fluttered mystically with the breeze, she held in her life-giving hand a long lance which she was using at the moment as a sort of walking stick, and it intimidated Vaul the moment he set eyes on the weapon, for he still remembered how it pierced through even his armor and drew his blood all those centuries ago...

""You have done your siblings a favor: at least they will not have to bother with the door and the lumen globes. It is good to see you too, Vaul, after so many years.""

""Yes, yes,"" the smith god said quickly, eliminating the crease of his scowl. ""But could you not have picked a more welcoming venue? The sand in the wind irritates my ears.""

""Ah, but there is no better venue,"" Thirianna said, as she set herself off the railing and walked calm steps towards the only other figure on the rooftop. ""For this is where we recognized our sin, and this is where we shall begin our journey towards redemption.""

Vaul stepped forward as well. ""So you dragged me from the Forests of Ulthanesh into the rough spot on Kharnath's arse because of symbolism?""

The angel gave a chuckle. Were Kharnath still alive, he would not have taken that slight well. ""Pretty much.""

There was a silence when they had come within feet of each other, and they both found their eyes examining the figure of the other. Their armor, their clothing, their skin, hair and ornaments. It lasted for a few seconds, ending with the two parties staring each other in the eye, and through the action communicating wordlessly. Vaul was first to break the stare, and looked and gestured to his left, where there were seats like ascending stair-steps fashioned from a single piece of marble and shaped into a wide semicircle that hugged the parapet.

""I presume I am the first of my ilk to be here. But where are Aesir, Sophia, Sita, and Maugan Ra -- the other four angels?"" Vaul asked, but when there was no reply after a few seconds, he returned his gaze to his elder sister, who looked at him with hurt.

""What?"" he was genuinely bewildered.

""Brother and sister who last met wearing masks of death and stoking the flames of hatred in their hearts, now reunited after so long, and the former acts detached and cold.""

Vaul bitterly chuckled. ""Forgive me, sister, but you tried to kill me.""

Thirianna shook her head in disapproval. ""I had to. You were hurting our Creator, but the return of the Golden One heralds a new age, an era of reclaiming. Let us forget the sins and the selfishness and the grievances of the past, and instead forge on with love and understanding. Is it the lance,"" she lifted the weapon a few inches up, ""that intimidates you?""

""Yes,"" Vaul admitted, his lips pursing at the last syllable as he suppressed a feral growl, and quelled the reflex action to take the handle of his sheathed runesword. ""And its wielder. The scars have not healed.""

""Brother,"" Thirianna beckoned, extending her free hand as she stepped forward. ""Please forgive me. Embrace me.""

But Vaul merely held a palm up and retreated, not looking her in the eyes. ""No, no. You know my memory is perfect. I cannot forgive such trespasses against me so easily. When I think of the War, Thirianna, I feel pain as your accursed weapon nearly tore me apart. Even now, my body aches as my mind relives that time. And you haven't answered my question.""

The angel looked deflated, and ceased her approach. With her voice lacking some color, she began to answer: ""Aesir and the others are attending business regarding the Resurrection. There is no point for them to be here, as they already know everything.""

""Ah yes, because you people so jealously guard the majority of our Maker's corpse up there in Aett. So us gods and our demon brethren, while we feel our Parent stir, know only so little.""

""Mhm,"" Thirianna seemed unperturbed at the accusation, even proud of it. ""But you forget to mention our younger siblings.""

""The upstarts?"" Vaul raised a brow. ""You consider them to be our kindred?""

""Even <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Itone</a>, yes."" And at this, the smith god looked offended. ""Now, hush, and let us continue our talk at the railings, where we might behold our siblings as they approach from below.""</div>"

The snakes and scorpions hasted away from her path, feeling her anxiety. For the first time since the War in Heaven, all were present in her realm - Angels, Demons AND Gods. The huge blue tiger walked through the desert at a slow pace. Hiraga did not want to go - She was their eldest, and she learned long time ago that past wounds open all too easily. She could feel the Nature shiver as most of what remained of the golden One’s power gathered in the middle of the sands.

It was only the thought of her creator’s return that made her come. She could still remember it’s demise as if it was yesterday. The pain in her core as the death wail of her creator echoed through all of Existence nearly drove the guardian mad. In the end her precious world lied in ruins, a shadow of it’s former self, accompanied by two new realms. If there was a chance to make everything like it once was, Hiraga was willing to listen.

In the past century, she felt weak and mellow - a sign that something wonderful had to be in the making. And yet, as she now looked upon the Tower of Broken Dreams, one question haunted her: If the remains of their forefather were indeed reforming, what would they actually become in the end?

Their gathering place was indeed aptly named to convey her fear. The most prominent runes on the building’s door seemed to be the fates laughing at the straws they were clinging to. For indeed, all Hiraga could think of was how volatile this gathering was. The war to end all wars could very well start here today. This time, no one would be spared. The guardian shook her head to banish the thoughts. She could discuss predicting opinions on the future when Sohena arrived. For now, she had to be vigilant.

Looking into the ancient building, she saw the stairs that led upwards. Shifting to a shape of a dragon, she ascended the stairwell in a few beats of her wings before landing on her feet in a more accommodating shape of one of her dryads. Aside from her, she could see only two others have made it yet. It took her a few moments to recognize Vaul. His beautifully crafted armor was in her memory, but they almost never talked and his name was lost in her memory. The other though, she recognized immediately.

Thirianna; the Guardian Arch-Angel. Her equal of Aett, as far as their power and status went. She would never consider the flawed archangel her equal, as during the war, Hiraga was mortified by the idea of taking up arms against her brethren. Yet this ‘Lightbringer’ ran a lance through the other in this room without much hesitation. “Welcome to Ceyr once again, Arch-Angel.” the guardian regarded her sister coldly, as if meaning to say ‘Be gone from my realm’. “Vaul.” she said with a headbow, her tone much more kind.</div>"

Neveras suddenly from the spiritual cage he was held in, exhausted, tired, feeling beaten, he groaned loudly in pain as it took everything he had to escape. And at that moment, the spiritual cage dispersed itself, releasing the old seal to alert all the spirits that remained that 'Neveras has escaped, if he regains his power, he may kill all spirits.' Neveras strained his body and took a great gasp of air, finally able to see the world around him, and everything coming to him. The chains kept him weighted down, but not to the ground. But he couldn't think about that right now, any of the original spirits that wanted him dead, and still remained, would surely come back to the temple as it is where he comes out at... he had to regain his strength and run. Perhaps everyone would go to Sohena for answers, or go straight to Neveras for his throat?

He quickly stood up, ""Dammit, what... happened, while I was gone?"" He took a quick glance around. Obviously the temple he was sealed in... which was like an affront to him as it was <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> temple which was used as the bridge to his own cage.... was crumbling. So much had changed since before he was cast out. But thinking time was over. He is undetectable by the other spirits, but because of the chains it was like a metal detector if they got close.

Neveras sighed, standing up with an aching sort of body. Whether or not his body was effected like a Mortals or not, he was purposed to be one with the Mortals. Have their emotions, feelings, personalities, everything. He would feel their pain, their sorrow, as well, not just their happiness. Neveras sprouted his wings, though frustratingly with struggle, out came an angelic wing and a demonic wing, and he jumped up, to soar and find a new place to restart his life, hopefully to find a Mortal colony, and to find out the current devastation of Ceyr.</div>"

Nonetheless, she did not like a desert in any shape or form, for despite her own experience telling her that a legion could charge across it, Voana did not trust a desert, too wary of the unnatural and unpredictable way any path you might fight to claim, would seep and change beneath your feet at the slightest fell of foot. As she continued her stride forwards, the leather reins clutched in her right hand and pulling along the sand-horse behind her, Voanas mind saw fit to summon memories of the Battle of Roqagh, a mortal skirmish over a Citadel on the Sands of the East. Truthfully, Voana had thought it a petty conflict, Roqagh certainly a pretty monument to Elven architecture but not of any importance to a Ancient like Voana, nonetheless it promised to be a fun enough war and Voana had slipped within the ranks of the invaders with no small measure of anticipation. Following months of toiling siege, the army Voana belonged to had broken through the outer walls guarding the great plain of desert that lay before the Citadel and, in their battle-born arrogance had charged towards the city almost instantly.

Voana had considered that such a war between Humans and Elves would have attracted the participation of others of her kin, and she had been right. A Sister, Oena, who had the talent of shifting all matter itself into any shape she desired, had met them, stood atop a parapet of the Citadel in the distance, tiny and unseen by all but Voanas keen eyes, the sight had stopped her in her tracks. Those in the army who had raced past her and on towards the city had experienced the earth fall out from under them, Oena commanding the sands and sweeping them into a wave that encompassed half of the plain, blotting out the redness of Aun and sending thousands into a deep dark pit where no man could gain footing against the seamless granules of the sand walls. Those that survived the fall, were suffocated and crushed as Oena released her wave and sent the great mass of sand to descend on them, their cries for mercy melting into the earth as the desert again settled into a smooth plain. In the midst of her recollection, as swept up by the remembered emotions of shock and horror, Voana gave a calculating glare at the desert around her, her steps faltering and her hands clenching at the sudden panicking surety that the sands would seize up once again and turn and envelope them in a red deluge.

From her seat atop the sand-horse, Itone called out a questioning and raspy ""Voana?"", concerned as to why their small caravan had ceased movement. Piercing through her like a cool, fresh and entirely welcome breeze, the voice of her Wife shook Voana from her thoughts and paranoia and she re-adjusted herself, <span class=""bb-i"">tsk</span>ing quietly at her foolishness. 

There was no need to fear Oena and her sand, the Ancients smirking face had been cleaved from her shoulders by Voana herself not an hour after her sand tricks.

""It's nothing to worry over..."" she called back to Itone, turning to the side and moving her eyes away from the sands and up towards what could be seen of her Wifes face through the thick scarf wrapped around her shoulders and head. Itone as stubborn and unyielding as she was, was a true Northerner in body, and had no head for such harsh, unforgiving heat. The Shield-Maiden had suffered one of her flashes a mere day after arriving in the ramshackle port-town Nursia where they had sailed from the North after receiving the summons. Voana had refused to continue until she deemed her Wife fit to travel onwards across the dunes to their destination, and even then had insisted on Itone taking residence atop the sand-horse ('camel' the merchant had called it) for the duration of the two-day trek across the desert. 

Itone peered down at Voana, her eyes glinting suspiciously for several short seconds before she relinquished the concern with a pointed, ""If you say so..."", her voice again raspy and dry enough to provoke concern in Voana instead. Voanas brow furrowed, her left hand dropping to the pack at her waist, fetching her water-skin and holding it up towards Itone, who regarded it with a chastising air and the bundle of scarves that helmeted her head tilting to the side. Voana presented her Wife with an admonishing look of her own, ""You should drink my love, you need not worry of wasting it-"" Voana asserted firmly, tilting her chin upwards at the tall dune they stood at the bottom of, ""-we're almost there."" 

With a slow sigh, Itone leaned down and took the water-skin from Voanas hand, seizing back up into her perch before pulling down the hem of her scarf, exposing her mouth. After taking a long gulp, she sighed again, this time with an air of appreciation, and sat back in her seat, looking up in the direction Voana indicated. ""It'll be nice to get out of this heat."" Itone admitted, Voana releasing a grunt in agreement before turning back to her task, pulling on the reins to make the sand-horse approach the dune. As they began the climb, Voana called back to her Wife again, ""It's a shame my Brother Hotar is not here to give you relief-"" she stifled a smile at the look of confusion she imagined would be on her Wifes face.

""He had a fine ability of changing the weather, nothing large mind, there were plenty who prayed for him to reverse a famine for a whole nation only to be dismayed to find he had no such power..."" Voana continued, pushing the brunt of her strength into forcing the sand-horse further up the dune, ""but the immediate area, yes...I imagine he could have made it rain for us, or at least just a little cooler.""

She cast a spurning gaze up at the cloudless sky, but upon hearing her Wife release a considering sound she turned to look over her shoulder. Itone peered down at her again, a thin line across her visible lips, ""You refer to this Brother of yours in the past tense...so I'm assuming he's dead.""

Voanas nodded slightly, ""Aye, he fell during the great war..."" she explained, turning her face back towards her task, a smile twisting onto her lips as she finished, ""...under my sword of course."" Her smile morphed into a grin at Itones short bark of laughter. 

""See that's really it, that sort of thing tells me so much about you"" Itone alleged in a half-amused drawl, ""of the few stories you DO tell me of your kin, more than half of them end with"" she wove a hand in the air ""'and I killed them.'"" 

""Well it seems I'm becoming repetitive, You must be getting tired of me."" Voana chuckled.

""Getting close to it."" Itone sang swiftly in reply, helping to alleviate some weight on the upwards climb, leaning forward in her seat and pulling up the pack tied onto the back of the camel behind her. Soon enough, they crested the dune and found themselves looking out across a wide landscape not wholly dissimilar to that they had travelled across for two days now. What was different about the view was the great monument in the distance, towering and magnificent even from where they stood, maybe half a league away. Itone felt her brow raise and heard her voice take on an faintly impressed tone as she asked, ""Is that it?"", thinking of all the scattered scraps of ruins buried in the sands they had ambled past the last two days, surely this structure that captured the light of Aun so beautifully could not be counted among them?

Voana brought them to a steady halt atop the dune, breathing in shortly before releasing the breath in a slow sigh, ""Aye...That's it."" The Tower of Broken Dreams was as opulent and imposing as she remembered, glittering and splendid in the rays of Aun as if it still stood as an indication of present power and glory, and not as a monument that had withstood a thousand deaths and conflicts, surviving as a testament to a lost greatness. So gripped by the hazy but pleasing recollections of true power that the sight of the tower summoned was Voana that she didn't register her Wife calling her name, hearing but a muffled shout before receiving a sharp prod between her shoulders that snapped her attention back to the present once more, turning to look up at Itone with a furrowed brow and a questioning expression. Itone gave her Wife a narrowed glance before pointing down below them, ""Someone's there."" Voana snapped her head to follow the direction of Itones gesture, understanding her Wifes caution and inching her free hand to rest on the scabbard strapped to her hip on instinct. 

Taking a small step forward, Voana leaned over to glimpse down into the small valley that formed between the hill of their dune and the dune following it, and rested her sharp gaze on the lone figure that stood at the bottom of it. The being, tall and slender and accompanying a shadow that stretched behind her before melting away into the sand, looked up at Voana, their face still and calm and overall expectant, was instantly recognisable to her.

Gliding towards the sky-piercing structure, the wings carried something evidently too small for them; Varavana came, heralded by the gusts of wind kicked up by the colossal wings. Upon landing his body returned to its 'normal' state as a sort of mix between a jade robed human child and other mortal species. 

This was a significant event, and not one he was all too positive about. While he was honoured to have been invited to be among his most elder relatives, he did not seek nor anticipate the revival of the Golden One like many of them. The idea made little sense to him; if an entity that grand can both die and inspire his ancient children to war, then why should it be brought back? Had one atrocious mistake of a conflict not been enough? 

The mortals, inheritors of Ceyr, would not survive something like that. Not again. Varavana scaled the stairs, the sorting of his thoughts making time pass by the young Upstart much quicker. Before he knew it, Varavana found himself approaching the other three present attendees.

He had never met an Ancient in person, Varavana realised at that moment. They always seemed very distant from the world of Ceyr, even if they were present on it. Difficult to reach for one such as Varavana, who paid no allegiances beyond some form of general loyalty to mortals. However, now he knew for the future what it would feel like to meet an Ancient outside this tower. 

They were distinct from the world, each of them. As he looked upon the faces of Vaul, Thirianna and Hiraga, he found himself unable to completely process what they were feeling - and for a highly empathic entity like Varavana, that was significant. Was that simply due to their nature as Ancients, or had their age hardened them from being read in such a manner?

Of course, being able to read their feelings and being able to read the mood of a room are two completely different things. He would have to be senseless to not notice the overwhelming tension, mostly directed at the unfamiliar Arch-Angel. But of course, like the chasms on Ceyr, the wounds of their long-gone war had yet to close. Relationships were still understandably strained between the two former sides of the war, and that would only become more and more evident if other Ancients showed themselves. 

Varavana broke out of his momentary thoughts once more, and placed his hands in his sleeves and bowed his head in respect and deference to the Ancients. He held the bow as he spoke, a voice that lacked any clear distinction as male or female, but was simply 'pleasant'.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Honoured Ancients, I extend my thanks for inviting one such as myself to this forum.""</span> He raised his head, looking between them once more with a smile.

<span class=""bb-i"">""I am Varavana, and I hope our discussion can be fruitful.""</span></div>"

He was a little tired, he’d been riding for a few days now. The clouds swept past beneath him, as the wingbeats of the griffin propelled them forward.

<span class=""bb-i"">I wonder why it’s called the Tower of Broken Dreams.</span> He thought airily. <span class=""bb-i"">It looks like a good old normal dream to me.</span>

The glittering tower was his destination. Apparently all spirits had been called to it, something about the Creator or the Golden One. Gaon was probably the only spirit that hadn’t been around when the Creator died, he really wasn’t sure how he was created.

As he pondered, the deer in his lap raised its head and snuggled in between his crossed arms. He patted its furry head for a little before it put its head back down and went back to sleep.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Why were you created with  me anyway?""</span> He said to the deer. It looked at him quizzically. Gaon knew it didn't know. It only knew as much as he did. Either way, it didn’t really matter. They were both spirits now, and they had been called. <span class=""bb-i"">Speaking of the call, we’re here.</span>

The Griffin flew past the top of the Tower, giving a rather cinematic view of the gleaming tower of stained glass and gem stones. The light reflecting from tower threw up a rainbow of colours as the Griffin perched on the edge of the rooftop.

Gaon picked up his deer and jumped off of the back of the Griffin and landed on the solid rooftop of the Tower. He set his deer down and turned to wave cheerily at the Griffin as it left.

<span class=""bb-b"">”See ya Alto!”</span> He shouted to the Griffin. <span class=""bb-b"">”Stay safe!”</span>

The Griffin squawked in goodbye as it flew off into the rays of Aun. The Griffin was a friend of his, just as many were. Surprisingly enough, almost all of his friends were animals and the like, even though he was once human.

<span class=""bb-i"">Well, that hardly matters.</span> There was no point in dwelling on it, he was here for the meeting and nothing else. He turned towards the auditorium on the roof. What he saw was quite a strange sight all things considered.

There was a massive glowing blue tiger, seemingly glaring in unison with a richly clad armoured elf; at a kindly looking angel holding an impressive lance like a crutch, and some really weird hybrid child/person who really didn't seem to be able to read the mood. All of them radiated intense power, but the child/person less so. Maybe this kind of thing was a regular occurrence? Gaon knew he was extremely young by the standards of most spirits. This kind of thing certainly seemed like something that would happen if an immortal family met after a war that they were on different sides of. The war he had missed, which apparently had killed the Creator. And the Creator was the topic of discussion as well.

<span class=""bb-i"">How strong are they, I wonder?</span> He thought. <span class=""bb-i"">Actually, am I early?</span>

There really wasn’t anyone else there on the roof besides the five of them. He looked over the edge behind him, but it was difficult to see if there were any approaching visitors. He saw three people fairly close to each other but that was it. Maybe he was early. Looking back at the amphitheatre however, he sort of didn’t want to sit in one of the seats while the ancients there were busy glaring each other down. It would probably be a bit awkward.

With a lack of alternatives, Gaon shrugged and sat where he was, fishing rod in his lap and deer looking on with curiosity at his side.

<span class=""bb-i"">Guess I’ll just have to wait.</span> He thought.</div>"

The black storm raged.  Winds tore across the land and torrents of dust and sand roared through the sky.  A single speck of light, far below, tried in vain to create a path through the gale.  A lone camel-drawn carriage inched its way across the cracked earth.  Blown glass lanterns on each corner were the only light visible without.  The reins that stretched from a slit through the front of the carriage pulled taught as the two camels reared and nearly stumbled.  A door was thrown open, and a single figure wrapped in heavy protective cloth leapt from the stalled carriage.  It turned in several directions, seeking a sign and finding none.  It reached inside the cloth and pulled a fragment of amber on a string and held it out in one hand, the wind nearly pulling it loose.  Nothing else happened.  The figure turned, frantically, the wind dying slightly as its roar settled into a resonant boom.  The necklace slacked and hung almost loosely.

""MIRNA!""

A covered head shot out from the door of the carriage.

""Mirna!  Is it working?!  Did it show you?!  Which way do we go?!""

Mirna pulled the heavy cloth from her face and let it drape around her neck.

""Damn damn <span class=""bb-i"">damn</span>.  It's no use, Borah,"" she sighed.  ""Gods' blood, it's no use.  Tell mother not to worry, we'll be there soon.""

She ran the back of her free hand across her face and put on what she thought was a smile.

""How's dad?""

Her brother's face screwed up at this.

""The same,"" he replied.  ""He's asleep, and breathing fine for now.  Mom stopped crying, which is a good sign.  Water the camels and come back inside.  It could start again at any moment.""

Borah threw her a large canteen and bucket and pulled his head back in.  They had been traveling through the wastelands nearly three days.  Mirna sighed a long, heavy breath and stuffed the amulet into a pocket and walked around to the camels.  Five days since their father fell ill.  The village's mystic called it a terrible curse, but Mirna stood firm and insisted it was a sickness, one that could be cured in the city.  The nearest hospice, in the city of paved roads and lanterns at night.  Days of journeying away, but better than sitting home and waiting for a sickness to take him.  The people of the hamlet on the edge of the desert told them to avoid the wastelands, as all life disappeared within.  A small and gray and incredibly old priestess smiled with her one remaining tooth and told them going through was days faster than circling around.  She even offered to sell them a pathfinding amulet.  A very expensive one, a stick of charcoal encased in a beautiful triangle of amber, blessed by the local priests and instilled with the power of the gods.  All the money Mirna had.  Days faster.  Three days.  Mirna stroked the camel's head as it sucked nosily at the water.  She struggled to hold back a sob.  They would die out here.

""No death here.""

A moment passed.  Realization dawned and Mirna's breath caught in her throat as she spun around, clutching the bucket to her chest.  Nothing.  She looked down.  A tiny figure in a tiny brown robe, barely as tall as her waist, looked up at her.  Even in the gloom she could see its face was ashen gray, with a large nose and shimmering brown eyes that contained an eternity of sadness.  Though she had only read of them, she recognized it as a goblin.  It looked very young, possibly, but at the same time very, very old.

""W-What?""

""No death here,"" it spoke again in its odd tremoring voice.  ""No life.  Only dust.""

Mirna caught herself and lowered the bucket as respectfully as she could.  She had heard of bandits, but nothing had prepared her for this.  She hardened her gaze and pulled herself taller.

""Forgive me, uh, sir.  Madam.  Goblin.  We're lost, you see.  My father is gravely ill and we're looking for the city and to be honest w-we've been sidetracked, you could say, but we have no money, no money at all, and if you would kindly show us the way we'll gladly--""

A sword was pointed at her.  At least, Mirna thought it was a sword, burned to ash as it was, and tiny as it was, even in the small creature's grasp.  The goblin turned and stretched its arm to the right side of the carriage.  There was a deep, nearly humming boom, barely audible, and a flash of golden light in the distance.  Mirna gasped slightly, her eyes frozen on the warm, welcoming light beaming through the dust and ash.

""MIRNA!""

She jumped again, and turned to see Borah sticking his head out the window.

""I think it's starting again!  Are you finished with those spitting bastards?""

""I--the camels?  Yes but, this goblin...""

Mirna turned to where the goblin stood.  It was gone.  The ashen land stretched away, no footprints in the sand below, as the horizon darkened and the winds closed in once more.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tower of Broken Dreams, Ceyr</span>

Ashes swirled through the marble doors of the Tower and gathered on the floor.  Dust rose to his feet in the flickering gloom, gathering his cloak about him and placing a hand on the sword at his side.  Traveling as a cloud in the presence of others would expend energy, and he saw no reason to hide himself in the company of gods.  His large brown eyes followed the staircase as it spiraled upward, shrinking and disappearing into the distance.  One thousand one hundred eleven steps.  Dust took them without haste, with the same measured pace of ages past.  He walked.</div>"

—————————————————————————

Snarling mildly for but a flash at seeing <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Voana</a>'s figure in the distance, Thirianna stepped back to receive the newcomer, and her sapphire-like eyes met those of <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369530"">Hiraga</a>, but frowned at the feigned cordiality. Vaul took action first to return the guardian's greeting, dipping his head in a deeply respectful bow, his long, platinum blonde hair pulled away from their usual place behind his shoulders and encouraged to fall over his obscenely baroque breastplate. ""Hiraga,"" he rose, his chin tilted slightly upwards in that Elven manner when they were genuinely happy, if the smile that curved his thin lips and reached his bright eyes wasn't enough to convey it. ""Your dryads continue to keep the Forests of Ulthanesh and Eldanesh so lush and beautiful. On behalf of the Elven Pantheon and the mortals we call our children, I thank you sincerely.""

In contrast to the smith god, the guardian arch-angel's reply was cold in its insulting shortness. ""Good to see you too, elder sister,"" she said, as her eyes wandered all over the disgustingly fake body Hiraga had chosen to take. The firstborn was a shapeshifter, and proclaimed herself to be Guardian of all Ceyr. How pretentious. But none of these venomous thoughts showed through Thirianna's convincing-enough smile. ""I hope you've been keeping well.""

But <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371758"">Varavana</a> found himself ignored by Thirianna, even when he bowed and spoke at some length. He was right in the tension that filled the air, as the the second-born tried to spark conversation with her elder sister with an extremely generic ""How have you been?""

The only attention the upstart got was from Vaul, who looked at him for a second, decided he wasn't interested, and returned his gaze to Hiraga. If the smith god noticed <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369608"">Gaon</a>, he made no effort to show it. Indeed, the ancient spirit that helped to shape and form the greatest and most terrible mortal race to ever conquer great swathes of continental Ceyr would be just as cold to the <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2370195"">third upstart</a> who was taking his sweet time in ascending the steps.</div>"
16805,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-05 17:52:00,Vilhelm,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A shadow whisked across the desert dunes, out of place in the otherwise sun-scorched landscape. Formless, it could easily have been mistaken for the silhouette of a cloud whisking across the sun- But there were no clouds. No, this shadow was Danives himself, flitting over the heated landscape with far more ease than others might have managed on the ground... After all, he currently had no body to overheat, or to beg his mind for water. And so, with no worries in his travel, he let his mind wander.

The Tower of Broken Dreams. He hadn't been there since.... -Before- the golden one's death. Long before. But this wasn't a summons he could ignore receiving. Mentally, he smiled at the memory of when he gained his summons. He'd been in the middle of assisting one of his followers in their task. He remembered it quite well- The young human had used his shadows well, dancing unseen and unheard through the halls of a wealthy man's home. His body had flickered much as Danives' own tended to do, blending with the darkness until he made his way to the man's own room. A single blade of shadow was gifted to his hand.

It had been a grand sign to Danives that the summons hammered into his mind the moment the assassin's shadowy dagger speared through the heart of its victim. Normally, he might have stayed to assist the follower in leaving... But his task was done. How he escaped was up to the assassin himself- And so Danives left, his boon lifting from the human as he flew across the land in his shadowy state.

And now, here he was, rising over the crest of dune after dune, ever-nearing the fantastic shape of the Tower. Unlike his poor, poor siblings, he had no need to tire himself climbing so many stairs- He merely raced up the walls themselves once he arrived, pausing briefly to brush a shadowy finger of greeting over the climbing Dust's shoulders. He was friendly to upstarts, and knew Dust would recognize the greeting. But then, a bare moment later, he was on the move again- And soon materialized on the balcony, behind Thirianna and Vaul. Silent, he raised a quiet hand in greeting to the others that faced him, before finally speaking out so that those with their backs to him might also realize he was there. In the shadowy, death-like form he took now, he leaned oh-so-casually against the rail of the balcony.

""Brothers, sisters, it's so -pleasant- to see you all. Still all glares, I see? Come come. Daddy's war ended -ages- ago. Literally. Can't we all hug and make up? And stop ignoring our younger siblings, won't you? They need attention as much as the rest of us.""

A brief smile was sent to Varavana and Gaon with the words.... Well, as much of a smile as the shadowy form could muster. It was more of a feeling. Like they could -tell- he was smiling without seeing it.</div>"
16806,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-05 18:17:00,Forsythe,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">“Your thanks are unnecessary, but appreciated.” Hiraga replied with a warm smile in kind. The presence of her followers in the elven forests wasn’t particularly large - the elves did a splendid work taking care of their own part of the realm - but it was warming to know she was appreciated and welcome somewhere. That said, Hiraga wasn’t particularly interested in a conversation with her sister, but she would never be impolite. “I have been feeling tired lately.” the guardian replied, “Perhaps a sign that what you preach might indeed be coming. I suppose you will be telling us more soon enough.” she shared and left it at that.

When some of the Upstarts started arriving, Hiraga spared them a look, having a unique opportunity and time to meet them in person. The first one she actually recognized and gave him an acknowledging head nod. The other upstart didn’t ring a bell in the guardian’s memory, but she acknowledged him none the less.

It was the third presence she felt rising on the stairwell. To her, it felt as if a void was approaching. Hiraga looked aside from the door that would admit Dust any moment now. To her the little upstart was a constant reminder of her failures, and his presence always made her think of what she could have done better. She didn’t held it against the young spirit - it was hardly his fault. If anything, she felt a little sorry for him, and was grateful to him for watching over the barrens.

Hiraga gazed out the window at Aun. She wondered just how many would arrive, and if the archangel would be waiting for everyone and keep them here away from their duties and followers. She wasn’t particularly keen on leaving prayers unanswered and the warnings of her reincarnated servants unheard.</div>"

Itone slumped forward with a quiet <span class=""bb-i"">oomf</span>, the scarf wrapped around her head slipping down to cover her eyes as a result. Gritting her teeth, the Shield-Maiden wrenched the hem of the scarf up away from her eyes with a huff of indignation, leaning forward and delivering a kick between her Wifes shoulder blades. When Voana halted in her punishing stride and turned to look up at her Wife, Itone made to pull the reins from her, ""I'll do it you fool, lest you tumble this poor creature as well as your Wife in your haste-"" she stated, her voice clipped and firm, but her face softening as she looked down at Voana, ""-go on.""

Voana gave a short, grateful squeeze to the small hand laid upon her own before slipping the reins from her grip and turning back downwards, racing off down the dune, kicking up sand behind her. Letting loose a short song of laughter as she approached Sohena, Voanas lips twisted into a wide easy grin as she looked upon her Sister for the first time in years. Sohena herself, as serene in face as ever, received her with a slow, small smile, turning her tall and slender form fully to face Voana as the warrior charged up to her. Standing before her, Voana looked her Sister up and down, and reached out and grasped each of Sohenas slim shoulders, regarding her with a wholly fond and faintly disbelieving look.

""Sister..."" Voana murmured, her voice soft and holding the same small measure of disbelief as her face, with that she pulled Sohena forward, and pressed her forehead against her Sisters. Voanas eyes slipped closed for several long seconds, comforted when Sohena didn't throw off the gesture and instead brought her hands up to clutch at Voanas elbows, squeezing shortly before letting go.

Pulling back, Voana turned her head to look behind her when she heard the sand-horse grunt once more, and saw that her Wife had successfully brought the beast to rest at the bottom of the dune, rewarding it with several calming strokes to the side of its long neck whilst she watched them both patiently. Voana released her Sisters shoulders and smiled up at Itone, ""Itone, you remember my Body-Sister, Sohena?"" motioning to Sohena with a wave of her hand. Recognition flooded Itones face, her hand ceasing patting the sand-horses mane as she sat up in her seat, offering a thin smile down at Sohena, ""Of course, though..."" her brow furrowed somewhat as she spoke ""...it has been a while.""

Sohena brought her hands to clasp together in-front of her, bowing her head in greeting at Itone before speaking, ""It has indeed, I believe last we met you graced me with a wonderful feast at your home-"" here she lifted her head, ""-my apologies that I did not repay your kindness, I became quite indisposed afterwards..."" her voice trailing off as she gazed up at Itone. The Shield-Maiden met Sohenas gaze and regarded her with a wary air for a few seconds, before bowing her head in return. ""There are no apologies required save from myself,"" Itone replied shuffling in her seat atop the sand-horse, ""I forget my courtesies, would you like to take my place and rest your feet as we travel?"" 

Sohena shook her head, ""My thanks, but I will be just fine, though we should continue walking if we wish to reach the Tower before the meeting begins."" Sohena relayed, turning away but not before sending her Sister a pointed look. As Sohena began to move in the direction of the Tower, Voana turned to look at her Wife, her eyes firm and cautionary, Itone responding with a silent shrug of her shoulders before clicking her tongue and giving a soft kick to the side of the sand-horse, spurring it on to follow after Sohena. Voana turned and strode forward, catching up to Sohenas gliding steps quickly, and came to walk a steady pace beside her Sister, letting the silence reign for four short seconds before beginning her enquires. 

""You travelled alone?"" 

""It is my preference, as it has always been. Did only your Wife accompany you?""

Voana shook her head, ""Across the desert yes, but from the North a retinue of my pupils insisted on following us. We left them behind in Nursia-"" a considering frown appeared on her lips, ""-it was surprising enough that the summons had called for Upstarts to attend, I didn't want to push my luck by bringing mortals to the Tower."" Sohena gave a small hum of agreement and replied, ""Indeed, wise you are sometimes Sister, though I thought you wouldn't risk bringing Itone to an audience of our kin..."". Voanas frown deepened, her voice lowering to a mutter, ""I was against it of course, but my Wife has come to dislike the entirety of my protection."" she glanced back at Itone before leaning closer to Sohena, ""She has not been well,and she believes that the knowledge of our kin could help."" 

She leaned back at Sohenas slow nod, and gave her Sister a goading stare, ""Besides, you're one to talk of wisdom with these events, I honestly didn't believe you would attend despite the summons requesting all of us. Last I recall the 'Angels' did not regard you with much love."" she pointed out.

""And, if I know what I know, they regard you much the same, Sister..."" Sohena shot back smoothly before turning to Voana with a thin, knowing smile, ""and yet here we are.""

They began to climb the dune that lay before them, Voana looking behind her to supervise her Wifes ascent on the sand-horse, ""Aye, we are here-"" she muttered to Sohena, ""-and I wonder if we truly need to be...whether the reasons to be here are true..."" her voice trailing off as she turned her face to her Sister again, an unspoken question in her voice. 

The two Sisters came to stand atop the dune, the Tower of Broken Dreams now again visible in the distance, Sohena quiet all the while as Voana looked at her, unmoving and expectant. The silence prevailing, Voana sighed and pressed the subject once more, ""Sohena...Thiriannas claims should be impossible, I scarce believed them when I read her summons but..."" she paused, hands clenching and her eyes imploring, ""...if it's true, I rarely ask this of you Sister but-""

Sohena, who had been silent and avoiding of her Sisters eyes, raised a hand to silence Voana, lifting a cool and firm gaze to Voanas face. ""I appreciate that you rarely ask Voana, as I have appreciated such in the past...and I ask that you do the same now."" Lowering her hand, she returned it to clasp the other in-front of her and turned to begin the descent down the dune, murmuring, ""What will come to pass will pass, that is how it must be."" 

Voana watched as her Sister travelled on, a frown deepening on her lips before it settled with a deep exhale of air. Hearing the plodding approach of the sand-horse behind her, Voana turned to receive her Wifes questioning stare. Before Itone could ask, Voana stated ""It's fine...come we're nearly there."" and reached up to take the reins from Itones hands, the Shield-Maiden relinquishing them with a slow nod but a hard stare that promised they would speak of this later.

The three women moved onwards in silence towards the Tower, Sohena and her shadow leading the way, until, in no time at all, the group beheld the splendour and enormity of the structure up-close, and crossed the threshold of the two heavy doors into the foyer of the Tower. The steps of Voanas heavy boots and the hooves of the sand-horse echoed deftly on the decorative but worn tiles of the foyer, whilst Sohena, as always, seemed to glide silently and weightlessly. Sohena gazed back at her Sister and directed a pointed look at the winding staircase that disappeared off up into the heights, making towards it after what seemed a moment of hesitation. Voana gave the stairs a brief glance before moving to attend to her Wife, reaching up to help her off the sand-horse, Itone grasping onto her arms before finding her footing and moving away, her eyes curious and distracted by the inside of the structure.

Voana looked back at the staircase, and saw Sohena still stood at the bottom of it, her eyes gazing upwards before glancing at her Sister with an expectant look. Voana gave a short sigh and relieved herself of the heavy robe that had hid her over the trek across the desert, revealing her armour, fine and aged and arousing the memories of a thousand battles. Throwing the robe to rest over the sand-horses saddle, Voana brought her hand back to rest on her scabbard, Iron-Spine a welcome and familiar weight against her hip. 

Looking over to her Wife, Voana saw that Itone had followed her steed, happily stripping herself of the various scarves as well as the woollen shift, standing small but solid in her cloth tunic, chain-mail vest and leather vambraces, her short-sword strapped to her hip. She offered her a small, reassuring smile and Voana felt a great measure of ill-thought melt from her, her muscles relaxing from stiffness into her easy confidence. She returned the smile and made to move towards the stairs, hearing Itone follow behind her with sure quick steps. Voana turned her gaze upwards, towards the heights of the Tower and the events that surely lurked at the top, the faint sound of conversation bouncing off the marble walls of the interior and drifting down to them.

Voana gave another short sigh, hand still resting on Iron-Spines hilt, ""Right then."" she murmured decisively to herself, and began to ascend the steps.</div>"

While the general idea, of course, was to pass unnoticed, he couldn't resist adding a few...<span class=""bb-i"">improvements</span>. After all, this would likely be the  first real gathering of the gods since the fall of the Golden One. A demon had to keep up appearances, didn't he? A few scales here, a claw or two there, and of course those red, light-devouring eyes he was so fond of. It was worth having to wear a cloak. The heat was, of course, a nonissue. The desert was less than a candle to the flames of Hades. 

As the tower of broken dreams rose on the horizon, Agimar again turned his thoughts to the summons. One could only wonder what the angels had in mind. Especially when they invited the upstarts. They were spirits, yes, but little better than mortals. The matter at hand must be truly important, if the angels had summoned them. 

Regardless, Agimar was grateful for the meeting, in his own way. The spirits stirred, and they always tended to create opportunities in the stirring. He knew there would be power to be had for those who sought it, Golden Orb or no. 

Agimar broke away from the caravan he was traveling with, impatient at the thought of what might already be happening behind inside closed doors. Of course, now that he thought about it, it wouldn't matter if the humans recognized him, this close to the tower. With that thought, Agimar let a little more of his ""godly"" form come through, unfurling two monstrous wings. They would probably cut the remaining time in half, at the very least. He took off, ignoring the screams coming from the humans below.</div>"

Varavana had hoped the etiquette of human and elf to be responded in kind, but received a passing glance at best. Varavana closed his eyes and gave his head a slight shake, his serene smile not leaving his face for a moment. At least his respect for one of the Ancients was not completely misplaced. He looked to Hiraga and returned her nod - or at least he assumed it was Hiraga. Who else would take the shape of one of Hiraga's dryads besides Hiraga herself?

The words of an unknown guest nearly caused Varavana to jump, their presence having gone completely unnoticed by his senses, a rare occurence indeed. The vast hearing range of an Ulthranesh native, and able to pick up the slightest changes in an areas scent with the Tartarian Slicehound's nose - and that was just the beginning of it. All of it bypassed by the one who had just 'appeared' behind him by the railing. Varavana turned his head to identify the culprit. 

Danives' appearance and his demeanour were...surprising, not quite two things which Varavana would associate with one another, but there was that saying about judging books by their covers. None the less, Varavana bowed to him, one which involved the lowering of his upper body as opposed to the mere bowing of his head. A respectful, yet subtle gesture to display his gratitude for acknowledging not only himself, but Gaon as well. Bringing himself to stand upright once more, the regal Upstart spoke.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Honoured Ancient""</span> He greeted, his hands not leaving the deep jade sleeves of his robe, <span class=""bb-i"">""I am pleased to make your acquaintance.""</span> He gave him a slow nod, much like the one he gave to Hiraga, and turned to face the others once more. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""I am inclined to agree. The hot coal of a poor past may be thrown, but ultimately you will be long burned before you bring it to bear. Drop the past, if not for your own sakes, then for the sake of Ceyr.""</span> Varavana's smile faded somewhat, but was still present none the less, and a subtle hint of determination set in across his features. His words were directed mostly towards Vaul and Thririanna, but all were included. 

The reference to state of Ceyr after the war was clear and piercing, but not rude in its mention. It was those kinds of feelings that would hurt those around them, and being Ancients that would mean a lot of people. In a meeting like this, dropping those feelings was required in order for the best outcome - which is why they had come together.</div>"

""Caliburn you feeling alright, we're almost there so don't worry you wont have to deal with this much longer"" Yakushi cheerfully said as her hand ran through its fur and rubbed against the magical gem that laid on Caliburn's head. The two were riding on a simple light blue cloth that was big enough to hold onto the two of them while a decent amount of room still available to lay if needed, if you had something to compare it to, it would be the size of a full bed. A steady yet small stream of energy was used to supply the carpet with the ability to fly, this was Caliburn's task for the trip; if it was need an small additional amount of energy could also be applied to direct the carpet however, it seemed at the moment the carpet was just where the two wanted it to go. With the carpet flying in its automatic mode, the two had little to do besides Yakushi messing around with an barrier to protect the two against the dessert wind and sand, she achieved the tasked not too long after they had entered the dessert and had been looking at the never ending sand. Yakushi couldn't understand why they were going so far out, but she went along with it as this was something she was interested to be involved in. Teleportation was an option for the two of them, but the energy to make such travels was so inefficient, that riding out would be simply better.

In the distance they could see the Tower of Broken Dreams in the distance and they would get there in no hurry, however it was honestly going to be awkward if you take in the fact that everyone would be there. It hasn't happen like that for a while if, Yakushi could remember and it was going to be exciting to see what was going to happen, not to mention she would be seeing some of the people she been keeping an eye on. So it would be a good experience, at least for her as she gained much from coming to this event. So with her hand looming over the cloth, she began to slowly supply the cloth of additional energy causing it to zoom faster towards the tower in the distance. 

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Tower of Broken Dreams</span></span>

The shadow of the flying rectangle ceased to exist after reaching the Tower, where Yakushi had finally got to the base of the tower in which brought some... distant memories of the long forgotten past. She too released the barrier that surrounded her and Caliburn, finally feeling the desert weather after being in the weather-proof barrier for so long, the two didn't feel too hot yet from the heat of the sand and in fact was delighted to experience some stimuli. However, unnecessary exercise was something that they would indeed try to avoid and with their carpet they flew up to the balcony to where the others were most likely waiting. As a straight incline up to the balcony would just had been difficult to hang onto, they went up in a spiral to the balcony.

Upon reaching the balcony, she slowly appeared from beneath the railing and floated behind the backs of everyone who weren't looking, while the ones who were facing her obviously saw her laying down on the cloth with Caliburn at her side. It was a silent entrance as the two didn't make much noise and simply waited until they were noticed by the ancients who had their backs turned against her, but to those who noticed her she gave them a warm smile that could of meant anything considering it was thing she learned from humans, which was that they could easily relay many emotions with a simple action that had deeper meaning than what was on the surface. But it was something maybe the other ancients haven't done much of before consider how everyone is or simply it could of been her for her naivety in social situations but she didnt worry about that and during the mean time she took a precaution to prepare several spells on top of her mind, it was something that she always did even in a social event due to being overly cautious from her past experience. Besides that, Yakushi was there waiting for something to happen now that she was present now wondering what was going to happen now that most of everyone has gathered here.</div>"

Neveras had been away, seeking out those who had knew of his name, those of Mortals. If he could gain any Mortal to his side, it would be those who had read of his scripture. Hopefully, he could gain more to his side. Whether it was so that he could defend himself, or defeat the others, was yet to be seen. He took a deep breath as he approached the tower from a length height, among the clouds, beginning to descend. What made him decide to answer the calls, he did not know. He was walking into a hornets nest, and each hornet was as strong as they could get. Even with the bumblebee's around, they all proved it to be suicidal... what Neveras was thinking of doing. His wings battered and waved slowly, rushing up the air around him and making a sound that didn't alert others to vibration or thuds, but of a strong presence... that should not exist.

Neveras was in his true form, one Angelic wing on the left, and one Demonic wing on the right.

As he gracefully landed at the stairs of the tower, he slowly formed his spiritual sword. Not to start a fight. He was raising his only shield in case someone inside decided to get hot tempered and freak out by his greeting. As he looked up to see his surroundings, he saw Sohena, standing there at the stairs. His heart started to race, but not from fear or intimidation, something more. And just as quick as his emotions started to wash over him, he twitched his head away, looking away in almost hatred. He gripped his sword tight, crossing his arms as he held it in his right hand and slowly walked inside. Without wasting a moment more, he wisked to the group of others, a decent length of way between them all. To his eyes he saw an angel that did not have much meaning to him. Beautiful in his eyes, elegant to his presence, but no. There was a purpose to being here, and he looked to the others.

""Greetings, everyone."" A frown on his face, his eyes calm. He wasn't sad, or angry, but he was stressed and tired. His body looked like it had beaten and battered from the cage he was swallowed into, the chains that pulled against him. His spirit, his soul, could be seen to everyone. He was showing a fake appearance of his body, even though everyone, including the upstarts could see through. Perhaps it showed the emotion of the pain he went through, given to him by his Creator? So that he could know the equal feeling that a Mortal would feel. Cut up and bruised his pulsing true inner being showed, soon he gained control, and no one would see that side of him.

His wings pulled inward, closing against his back and his left hand reached out. ""It is good to see you, Danives. I didn't think I'd be able to see a friendly face again."" But then he realized something, and looked around. This wasn't a mass grouping... there were fewer faces here, numbers that didn't seem realistic. He looked at all the faces, noticing a few, but mostly Voana, in which his face immediately changed. Gripping his sword and showing his teeth as his eyes went into anger before closing, calming, and opening again to look at the angel before them. The war in heaven was this devastating?

""So what, Angel?"" Neveras spoke broadly, ""You expect us to believe the great Creator will return? It was because of the Creator I feel this pain, that I am forced to keep my guard down around this so-called God that stands before me. My purpose will no doubt be altered upon the supposed return of the Creator, and I can not even carry it out because these Angels think I were to become selfish and greedy. They didn't even know I must have the Mortals true faith before I can even strike my sword against them!"" Neveras took a step back, as he was getting ahead of himself and exhausting too much energy. Without followers, his current power is equal to that of exhaustion. ""Even, if we were to believe,"" he took a breath, ""That the Creator would return, why would we want him back?""

Such a blasphemous remark, but from a blasphemous creation. Neveras was created to take the side of the Mortals, not the spirits or the Creator them self. So while it may be breathtaking to Upstarts, the Ancients may just get pissed off or frustrated from it.</div>"

—————————————————————————

When <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371758"">Varavana</a> offered his verbal piece, Vaul's relaxed expression as he regarded <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369785"">Danives</a> contorted into one of annoyance as his eyes, normally green, adopted a peculiar red tinge and flicked towards the chimera. ""Your attempts at philosophy are amateurish and irritating, infant. What do you even know of Ceyr? I don't recall you being there before the War. Now, speak not unless spoken to; your existence is-""

Thirianna's angelic figure then suddenly came in between the two. She shot the smith god behind her a disapproving look, but then smiled at little Varavana before her, bending her knees, a nimble hand on her thigh, as she tried to be at eye level with the shorter creature. ""Please do not mind Vaul here, little one; he's always been cranky since the day of his inception. You must be Varavana, correct? What an adorable little thing!"" And then she started ruffling his hair.

The Elven smith god scowled and frowned; then indifference flashed on his face, and then he looked confused, as his elder sister approached <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369608"">Gaon</a> and smothered the wretched upstart, too, with scandalously abundant maternal affection. But to protest at this would invite rebuke from her, and he most certainly did not want that humiliation to add to his sister's recent, silent and effective admonition. Thirianna was amongst the most powerful of the spirits back then, and even weakened as she was now, there was little doubt in her ability to best him in the martial arts.

Thankfully, <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2372554"">Neveras</a>' arrival brought his mind away from such troubling thoughts. He looked at the battered spirit, whose form was that of an athletic youth, two wings -- one a majestic white and the other an ominous black -- sprouting from his back. He cocked an eyebrow in recognition, before a millisecond later he noticed that the supposed keeper of the balance of power -- one who failed in his task, by the way -- gripped in his hand his naked spirit sword. Vaul frowned, and raised his palm and interjected as Neveras spoke, his voice resolute with power and authority:

""Be silent. We come here with open hands, but you ready a clenched fist. Sheathe your sword.""

Thirianna, who had finished returning Gaon's hat after patting him on the head like a dog, mirrored in silence what Vaul said with an unamused look. Neveras' threatening stance spared for <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371644"">Yakushi</a> no attention from the two.</div>"
16813,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-06 09:58:00,RoflsMazoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Gaon looked on with more than a little trepidation after the archangel ancient left hugged him. He blushed a little as smothered him, he wasn't quite sure what to do. Her embrace hed felt quite nice of course, but he was more than a bit confused.

There was so much happening already, there was shadowy ancient he'd seen a long time ago, who turned out to be quite light with his humour... It appeared that the strange child didn't know how to take a hint either... And now he was sure all of the spirits present were aware of his presence, if they weren't before, and he really felt like he should've been doing something.

<span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I need to calm down a little...</span> he thought.

Even as he was trapped by the ancient's embrace, took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. When his eyelids closed, calm instantly spread throughout his whole body, as if turbulent waters suddenly stilled. As he opened his eyes, he found his sight overlaid with a tone of blue. Mentally he took up his fishing rod, and in his sight he cast a glowing blue line of energy that no one else could see.

The line plunged through a the surface of a layer of water which only he could see, and it continued a ways down the tower. Not long after that, he felt the presence of the others at the meeting. They ripples they cast on the waters surface were like waves, they buffeted him but they couldn't actually affect him in reality. It was only what he felt from them that was causing the sensation.

If he had to call it anything, it would have been 'fisherman's instinct'. The ability let him see the ripples that other creatures created by casting out his fishing line. The larger their 'presence' was, the larger their ripples were. He looked ahead of him towards what looked to be turning into a veritable geyser, so large were the presence of the ancients that there combined waves were casting the waters skywards.

<span class=""bb-i"">I suppose a congregation of spirits would always look like this.</span> He thought.

Suddenly, he felt something break the 'water level' behind him. Looking up briefly, he saw a rectangle of blue float gently over his head. As it touched the ground, he saw its owner.

<span class=""bb-i"">Ah.</span>

He'd only ever heard of her, he didn't really know her name but her rabbit was quite distinctive. He'd heard many whispers about her, mainly that she was one who saught all knowledge; she was known as the Harvester of Knowledge, Weaver of Intellect.

<span class=""bb-i"">Perhaps she knows how I was created.</span> He thought.

She turned towards all of the people she knew had seen her arrive, and gave each one a warm smile. But Gaon could feel the way the smile formed, and he knew it wasn't exactly genuine. It wasn't exactly forced, but it was more like it was something that someone has learned, but not quite mastered.

<span class=""bb-i"">Well, she seems nice I supposed.</span> He thought as the Archangel returned his hat and patted him on the head.

He felt another presence break the surface, one from the stairwell this time. The newcomer's presence was also loudly announced, but his rippled were rather strange. They were sporadic, random. The waves flowed over each other at varying speeds as if they wanted badly to escape from him. As Gaon looked at him, he could see that there was good reason to. He could feel something different from him thn usual, something outside of his powers. His instincts told him he was dangerous, simply dangerous.

But as Gaon looked, he found reason to believe his instincts and reason to disregard them as well, even as the Archangel rebuked him.

Either way, it didn't matter much. The meeting promised to be... curious.</div>"
16814,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-06 14:52:00,EsmetheGreat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It took some time, Voana slowing her usual quick pace, ever concious of Itones recent exhaustion and illness, but soon enough the two Ancients and the Upstart approached then top of the stairs. As they neared the top, the faint and aloof chatter that had echoed down to them during the climb, suddenly erupted into a sharper tirade, seemingly just from one person. As Voana fought to place the familiar voice to a name and face in her head, she noticed that Sohena, two steps ahead of them, froze, one foot poised upon the next step up but her form stiff and suddenly unwilling to move. Voana strode up the steps towards her, laying a large hand carefully on her Sisters elbow, ""Sister?"" she questioned, her face taking on an expression of concern. 

Sohena did not lift her gaze to meet her Sisters, instead keeping her eyes trained on the step in-front of her, her face still a beautiful picture of serenity and coolness, a contrast to the rigid set of her body that Voana could now feel distinctly, having a firmer grip on Sohenas elbow. 

""It's nothing..."" Sohena whispered to Voana, eyes still pointed at the stairs, after a few seconds she continued, in a louder and more authoritative tone, ""You both, go on, I'll follow behind..."" 

Voana did not relinquish her grasp on Sohenas elbow immediately, her face still trained on her Sisters face and only growing more concerned and frustrated by the second. Itone, sensing the mood keenly, climbed up the few steps between them and clutched a small, calloused hand on Voanas arm, digging in her fingers and pulling her hand away from Sohena, giving her Wife a pointed look when Voana turned to look at her. Voana frowned slightly but surrendered, giving Sohena one last short look before she continued up the stairs, her Wife a comforting presence beside her.

As they reached the top of the stairs, they found themselves suddenly freed from the dimness of the stairwell and instead drowning in the rays of Aun, as the stairs opened up into a large space, built somewhat like an amphitheatre and containing a small group of beings, none of whom Voana had deigned to meet willingly even before the Great War. 

""Be silent. We come here with open hands, but you ready a clenched fist. Sheathe your sword."" was the order she heard echo around the room, boomed with an authoritative voice that she had heard several times on the battlefield, and more times on the training grounds growing up. Voana felt her eyes roll before they came to rest on the finely-armoured form of Vaul, who stood in the centre of the group, his admonishing stance aimed at the winged being that stood a small ways off from the others. 

Voana took in the battered and indignant form of Neveras with no small measure of surprise, though the expression quickly melted into one of matched ire when the Ancient noticed her arrival first and faced her with a look of distaste. Bringing her hand down to rest on the hilt of Iron-Spine, Voana released a hard breath she hadn't realised she'd been holding and turned her head to look down at Itone, regarding her Wife with a cautionary glance, Itone responding with a silent nod and a solidifying of her stance. Suddenly but quietly, Voana felt the presence of her Sister at her back, having quietly found resolve and crept up the rest of the stairs behind them. Her appearance burgeoned more confidence in Voana, and the ancient chose to pull herself into her advantageous height, striding properly into the room, her shoulders back and her steps heavy and loud.

""Never thought I'd hear you tell someone to put their sword away Vaul-"" Voana called as she approached the group, Itone marching at her side and Sohena gliding along behind them, ""- war has made you softer.""</div>"

—————————————————————————

""Softer, you say?"" Vaul said, dry amusement coloring his voice as he measured <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Voana</a>'s <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">wife</a> with his piercing gaze. ""You think me softer now?"" His eyebrows quirked up mockingly; he found <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2372554"">Neveras</a> non-threatening enough to be flippant, and he was about to grin, laugh even, before quelling its precursor of a ghostly smile. 

""Well, perhaps you are right. In these relatively peaceful times, those who can test my mettle are few and far between. I must confess my sword-arm not seeing much use since the conclusion of the war. Or rather, since Thirianna over here rendered me incapable. Good day to you, <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Sohena</a>,"" he abruptly ignored the warrior god, and gestured limply with his hand. ""It is well that you are out of Hades; its grimness and fires do not suit one such as you. Could the small one be your sister's... <span class=""bb-i"">wife</span>?""

Thirianna's relative solemness contrasted with the playful Vaul, and she greeted the newly-arrived trio with only a nod, with respect to the smith god's making conversation. She turned appropriately the moment her right cheek was bathed in red light, and beheld a tear in reality wherefrom swirling crimson and heat profusely bled. The angel could not help but frown as her direct opposite stepped out of the portal.

It was a large bipedal crow whose feathers shone in the colors of the rainbow. A clawed, feathered hand held at its right a long golden staff headed by the horned skull of a goat, whose empty eye sockets eerily glowed blue with eldritch power. Its belly had white down mottled with black, and was festooned by many golden chains and baubles like brooches whose arrangement was chaotic and devoid of symmetry. Two necks with wrinkled skin terminated in avian heads. As <span class=""bb-b"">Kyras, Arch-Demon and Guardian of Hades</span>, spoke, his twin beaks revealed their serrated teeth, and when one beak spoke half of a sentence, it would silence, and the other would finish it.

""Thirianna,"" Kyras put in, cutting her off before she could speak. ""Firstly, know that I find little joy in being taken away from my projects, and that I am here only because of my position as Guardian. Second, know that the others do not believe, and think you are lying or deluded to the point of madness, which, if I were less clever, would believe; but at the moment, I only find it a probable thing. Thirdly, it is folly to wait for any more of our siblings at this gathering. Only Dorn, self-proclaimed God of Humanity, journeys toward this place; the others lack faith in you, and will not come.""

He tapped his relic staff on the ground, partly to punctuate that last statement, partly to prevent rebuttal from the angel.

""You will tell me all that you know; I shall extract the truth from your hopeful conjectures,"" he said, his four beady eyes regarding Thirianna and her only, before apparently realizing that they were not alone, and took a look around with only one head, lowing the other a few inches so as to get a better view.

""This reunion is pathetic. Sohena, Vaul, <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369530"">Hiraga</a> -- you don't actually believe that the Creator stirs from death, do you? This is a waste of our time. Look,"" he gestured at <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371758"">Varavana</a> and <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-goodhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369608"">Gaon</a>, extending a claw towards them. ""The infants are tired from traveling. They come here for nothing.""</div>"
16816,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-07 03:24:00,King Solterra,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Tower of Broken Dreams, Ceyr</span>

Neveras scoffed, ""Excuse me? I prepare myself to be defended, and here I am being ordered?"" He relaxed his arms, putting them to his sides and looked directly at Vaul. ""I came here out of respect. Even though surely it is a death sentence for me as many in here know how I am killed and know how to banish me. If this was a day in the War of Heaven I would threaten you to respect me for I had done nothing but good. But now, I truly could not care, but I will not take orders from someone who does not deserve it.""

Neveras fixed his footing to a more calm and casual stance, but he still had a determined behavior. ""However, disrespect to your own family is wrong. Many of us that stand here today are just as old as you, and potentially more powerful. This does not mean we are better, but it does mean we are not lesser. I will not stand for an insult. Apologize for demeaning accusation of the others, or we shall become enemies."" Even though he spoke the truth, he was actually standing up for someone that Vaul singled out.

Neveras, however, did dissipate his sword, and stood strong, straightening up. ""I don't think it matters if any of us came in belief the Creator is returning. Those of us who did attend are not childish and have open ears. Not only that, but we are respectful."" Neveras looked down as he thought for a quick moment. ""I failed to realize Voana had respect, and I prepared to draw my blade against her once again."" He looked up, and faced Voana. ""I will forgive you, if you forgive me for raising my sword to you in such a holy place. I do not wish you harm, I never did. Especially now, since you have someone to share your existence with.""

Neveras' strong output was ceased, and he could breathe clearly. His fake appearance fell and he no longer put up a guard of any kind. Neveras' sorrowful emotions began to show. He didn't do it to pull a guilt trip, but it was a show of his pain... of the distrust he was given, the betrayal of his family. Neveras was now on the edge of falling to one side or the other and his mind didn't know how to react. Being one with Mortals was overwhelming, as while he had his own personality and being, he had two conflicting beings that were just as powerful, but from the Mortals emotions.

He wanted love, but he also wanted revenge.</div>"
16817,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-07 03:36:00,Art of Fun,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Thirianna's maternal attentions were not rejected, but nor were they welcome. The smile faded some more still, Varavana's eyes coming to squint at Thirianna as she ruffled his neat, black hair. Out of respect for both her and the context of the meeting, he said nothing, letting the perceived slight go over like it was nothing. Vaul, on the other hand... Varavana stared up at the armoured elf god, letting out an exasperated sigh and shaking his head. The following arrivals of Nerevas and Kyras only continued to fuel the chimera's alienation and disappointment. His worst fears were being confirmed and then some.

<span class=""bb-i"">'The fate of the worlds is in the hands of these imperious, callous and confrontational beings. It always has been, and this is where it has gotten us.'</span>

Varavana's thoughts bordered on the downright blasphemous. He halted that train of thought before he entered regrettable territory, focusing instead on how to better communicate with the proud beings who were supposedly his 'family' - he had not been taught to hate or reject others, be they mortal, young gods or Ancients. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""I cannot tire in matters such as these, Ancient sibling""</span> He emphasised the last bit in indignation, <span class=""bb-i"">""I dare say, Most-Elder-Sibling, it is not I who has grown tired. It is not I who has been afflicted with lethargy, apathy, inaction and complacency. I travelled here for a few reasons, and thus far this meeting has proved...""</span> His eyes looked between the more on-edge Ancients, Vaul and Navaras, and then back to Kyras <span class=""bb-i"">""Productive, on those fronts. It will undoubtedly continue to be so, even with the absence of the rest of our kin. It is their loss, not ours.""</span>

Fire.

That was the best way to describe it. His words were spoken with fire, unmistakable warmth but burning with passion, illuminating the figure of Varavana and making his stances more known. To the gathered Ancients, there was something hauntingly familiar about it - brief recollection of a long lost sibling, bright as the stars and blazing through the sky. What was their name again? It faded as quickly as it came - these words were still spoken from the mouth of a child, after all.

Varavana closed his eyes for a moment, letting out another sigh. <span class=""bb-i"">""We had best discuss the matter which Respected Thirianna has called us here in concern of.""</span> The fire faded, the chimera returning to his usual peaceful self.</div>"
16818,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-07 06:27:00,Dud,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Dust stepped unhurriedly through the archway and into the light of Aun, his drake-like feet barely making a sound on the warm stone floor.  He offered a cursory glance around the room.  Aett, Ceyr, Hades, representatives of all, preening and dancing around one another with their powerful words and furtive gazes.  Dust recognized Danives, who sometimes accompanied him on his endless path; and another, Hiraga, one of the oldest gods whose pitying eyes he felt on him in centuries past.

He turned away and took a seat, his short stature making his legs hang some ways from the floor.  Dust drew his ashen sword from the loop in his belt.  He turned it in the light of the sun, the cracks weaving an intricate pattern in the burnt wood, glowing as the cooled embers within reflected the light without.  He thought of the time, ages ago, when he found it in the ruins of a castle from a civilization long-dead.  It was a curious thing, short enough for him to wield and in one piece, burnt to ash as it was.  He knew its history of course, as he knew all blasted vistas and desolate ruins of his wastelands, but much of it was for him alone, as a keeper of the dead places of his world.

He placed it sideways on the table before him as a silent display of disarmament.  They were there to discuss the fate of the worlds, hopefully without weapons in hand.</div>"

It looked like children bickering. Were they really <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> much younger? Kyras seemed to crown it by breaking what good spirits remained. ""So could she say about your projects being a pathetic attempt to emulate our creator. And obviously since you are here, you think the idea has some merit. So silence yourself and let the angel speak. In the worst case scenario she is wrong and we get to laugh at her later. Until then..."" she berated her eldest brother.

She looked at Varavana with a hint of hurt in her expression. She realized the young one did not understand her connection with the world and that her weakening power was a good sign, but she could explain later or not at all.  Right now it seemed like another situation craved her attention a bit more. She felt the need to defuse the prelude of war that was happening a few paces away. Getting up from her seat, she walked over to Nevaras. ""Greetings, brother. It is wonderful to see you again. I trust you slept well?"" she said, Standing herself in between the Smith god and the sword bearer. If they intended to fight, they were free to take it elsewhere, but she would not have Ceyr be the site of their struggles again.</div>"
16820,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-07 16:18:00,EsmetheGreat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When the Smith Gods eyes cast an unsavoury gaze at Itone, Voana felt her Wife stiffen at her side and delivered a livid glare at the Ancient, stepping part-way to the side and pointedly covering most of Itone from his view. At Vauls pointed rebuttal and dismissal, Voana felt her body stiffen and bristle, her pride quickly convincing her resolve as her hand resting on Iron-Spines hilt tightened. Taking a step forward, a snarl on her lips, Voana suddenly heard the cool voice of her Sister mutter at her shoulder, ""Not now Sister..."" before Sohena slunk out from behind Voanas broad form, gliding forward and recognising Vauls greeting with a slight tilt of her head towards him. 

Voana watched Sohena offer her silent greetings to the Smith God and tensed further, her snarl melting into a frown and her brow still deeply burrowed. At her side Itone suddenly grabbed Voanas arm halting Voanas movements as the warrior strove to step forward once again, seemingly following Sohenas steed and attempting to placate her Wife to prevent conflict at this early stage, Itone gave a small and insistent tug, pulling Voana further back into her. Turning to face her Wife and argue her restraints, Voana instead found that Itones attentions were not focused on her but rather across the room, her eyes narrowing and glinting with calculation. A questioning arch appeared on her brow as Voana followed her Wifes gaze to just behind where the Angel Thirianna stood, her own eyes narrowing as she saw the red tear open and the beastly Guardian of Hades pull himself from it, hauling its large inhuman body into the room. Voana had met Kyras only once before, and his monstrous form was still as remarkable, grotesque and worthy of fear as she remembered.

When Kyras called for Sohenas affirmation, Voana watched her Sisters slim shoulders stiffen a slight whilst her face, from what Voana could see of it, remained placid, though Voana could swear that Sohenas features took on a considering, almost hesitant look. Following the Guardians rejection of Thiriannas claims, Sohenas form relaxed once more, and she dismissed herself from Voana and Itone wordlessly, her hands clasping in-front of her as she made to pace around the outside of the room, head bowed as if she intended to space herself from the others in deep thought. Her head lifted only once to regard Neveras as the dilapidated Ancient addressed the gathered once more, before she bowed it once more, silent and gliding in her rounds.

Voana shared in her Sisters silence, the warrior had taken to casting her gaze around the room properly, registering who had attended, keen and accusatory eyes had been flitting from Kyras, to Thirianna, to the animorphic form of Hiraga, who she noticed had pointedly taken a blockading stance between the warrior and Vaul. When Neveras explicitly addressed Voana, she fixed him with a cautionary glare before recognising the contrite nature of his words.

""Especially now, since you have someone to share your existence with.""

As the Guardian spoke, Voana considered his words, her Wife still a solid, familiar weight behind her. Neveras' words seemed to have pleased Itone, as Voana felt her Wifes clutch on her arm relax, giving Voanas bicep a squeeze before softening entirely, stroking her thumb comfortably on Voanas skin. Voana lessened her grip on the hilt of Iron-Spine and turned her eyes away from Neveras, taking her arm away from Itone and instead using it to bring her Wife forward, again having her stood next to her, and bringing her hand to rest in the small of Itones back. 

Itone leaned into Voana, tilting her chin up, Voana leaned down to compensate for their difference in height and listened as her Wife whispered, ""You grew up with this lot, no wonder you've got a stick up your ass half the time..."" giving a small grin up at Voana as the warrior chuckled shortly in reply, her limbs relaxing.</div>"

He took a cursory glance at the figures filling the room, noticing that many of the Ancients had arrived earlier. Probably much earlier. He shook his head, giving a small sigh. Well, it couldn't be helped. Not everyone had power to spare for instant travel.

""Well, I seem to be rather late.""

Agimar lowered the cloak's hood, mostly as an afterthought. There would be some at this gathering who recognized him, regardless of whether he showed himself.

He took some time to examine the others a little more thoroughly. Hiraga, Thirianna, and Kyras, of course. One could hardly expect the ""guardians"" to miss such a gathering. Neveras was present, as well. That would be...awkward. And Danives just <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> to come, didn't he? No matter. That conflict would hopefully be resolving itself soon. Then there was Yakushi. Not the biggest threat, but there was little doubt her knowledge could make waves, for better or for worse. Voana, Itone, and Sohena, on the other hand.... Well, he would need to be careful around him. The upstarts were beneath his notice, for the most part, but his eyes did linger slightly on the goblin. What was his name again?Dust?

Well, regardless of allegiances, it was nice to see that he wasn't the only one who had bothered coming.</div>"

""If, that is, there is anything at all to discuss,"" the arch-demon replied to <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371758"">Varavana</a>.

When <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369948"">Agimar</a> arrived, Kyras gave his fellow demon an acknowledging nod, having deigned cheerfully not to respond to <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369530"">Hiraga</a>. Meanwhile Thirianna was closing her eyes and quelling the urges to argue with what she deemed as an arch-traitor, since all of her rebuttals involved the use of her lance. With particular distaste, she spoke, noting the faint shimmer of mischievousness on the bird-deity's beady little eyes when one of his heads regarded the half-breed <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Itone</a>, and as Vaul nodded approvingly when <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2372554"">Neveras</a> dissipated his sword.

""Kyras. I don't want you here either, but this involves all us spirits, us brothers and-""

""You still cling to the notion that we are siblings in that manner? Then looks like mortals must be nothing but a horde of incestuous-""

A sharp rumble tore through the floor as Thirianna smacked the foot of her lance upon it, a crisp thunderclap, almost deafening, accompanying the silencing gesture with a flash of golden light. For a moment, her eyes began to glow eerily, and the air seemed to be oppressive, before she hid her power once more, her cordiality gone.

""But this involves all of us,"" she reiterated. ""As such, the presences of angel, god, demon and upstart are required. Still, I must remind you that I am the host of this affair, and am perfectly content with leaving you here and having someone else be representative of Hades, if more blasphemies vomit from your unclean mouths. Now,""

She stepped back a pace and swept her eyes to all those who have come thus far. ""I sense no other presence approaching, near or far. We wait for Dorn, then we will depart to Aett. He is near.""

""Aett?"" Vaul cocked up an eyebrow. ""What for?""

""You will see,"" Thirianna flashed him a knowing smile. Kyras furrowed his brows as much as a bird could, and looked confused.

It was then that a figure surmounted the final stair-step and emerged from the interior of the tower. Clad in black mithril plate, <span class=""bb-b"">Dorn, God of Man</span>, took his place amongst the gathered crowd and rested on the floor the pommel of his warhammer, which was large as befitted a hulking tower of strength such as he. Having taken a vow of silence at the conclusion of the War, he could only greet <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Voana</a>, whom he held with the greatest of respects as a warrior, with a wordless nod, and looked expectantly at the arch-angel, who flashed him a smile in greeting.

""We will discuss Fate in the presence of our Maker,"" Thirianna said decisively, as she gestured with a smooth hand movement and forcibly tied two far-away places together with her divine might, swirling the reality before her into a shimmering portal, upon which was a picture of a different world: a snow-blanketed grove of Featherwind trees, upon whose pink leaves danced and twirled playful wisps -- strange magical creatures native to Aett, and ones who could survive only in its essence-sussurated environment. Far beyond the trees, towering walls of steel dominated the skyline and over whose edges meekly peeked the shy Aun, who was far enough away that the world was perpetually in a sort of twilight, where one could see always the sea of stars glittering upon the backdrop of the void.

""In front of the Corpse?"" Kyras was incredulous, clearly not having anticipated this development. ""You would let us into your Fortress? You would let Agimar and I into your most hallowed places?""

""Like I said, this involves all of us."" Then the angel stepped into the portal and emerged out the other side, making its surface ripple mystically.</div>"

Her eyes glowed faintly to which none could sense or see as she looked far into the desert, there had been a caravan a small one indeed that she saw in the far distance. It looked like they were making it... sort of but she had no doubt that in their condition they would make it if no distractions were imminent. Her ocular vision zoomed in and ahead of the tiny caravan there several hours no more than two, they would have to travel to reach an oasis if they saw it. Although small it provided an ample supply for plant-life around it, and for the animals which came to the best source of water to drink from. She had no worries, as she diverted her gaze her vision zoomed out and it came back to her before she looked back at the group.

Back to the balcony she saw Neveras and Agimar, so she gave them a smile as she missed the introductions and went back to her distractions keeping this time an ear out for anything that would be interesting. So her eyes went on to studying the Ancients that she has not seen for so long, but still refusing to look back to those times which should be forgotten. Her hands went over to Caliburn who had been wandering around and she pulled the creature back to her lap. The creature didn't mind as it was used to its master however it was interested in all the strangers that were present, as it wasn't often its master met up with others. They were all very different the creature easily confirmed however the most interesting thing one was the one they called Hiraga, it had heard much about her from its master and easily identified her. Besides her, the rest of them were strangers and was sure to be on guard.

However in an instant once again Yakushi was caught off guard as a thunderclap caught her attention again, as another argument again started up. However her attention was upon Thirianna as her eyes studied the moving hand and the surrounding area, she could feel the distant force even this early the amount of power the Ancient was going to use. Most likely to conjoint two places and in basic terms as in her mind a quick calculation and using the conversation that happened only mere moments ago Yakushi, could faintly sense where the two places that were being connected but she kept it to herself more or less entranced. With these display of powers she again did another calculation which could more or less give a loose interpretation of Thirianna's powers in which she again was silent in. But... to Aett a portal, it was a place she has not visited in a long while due to conflicting interests but she knew ways out, as she has been there before on not so offical means but no one had to know. So, she indeed was the first one in along with Caliburn on her tail and through the portal the two went, although mere seconds Yakushi smirked slightly as her eyes wandered in the blur of magic which connected to the two places.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Portal"" type=""button"">Portal [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Yakushi move her hand in an arc which effectively slowed them traveling through the portal for several seconds at most, but she had enough time to at least study the portal to have a rough idea of its specifics but some testing would be needed to have the proper spell ready. She has preformed some portal spells but it always been too energy consuming for her simple needs but she could always learn. Her favorite use of these were utlizing them as black holes but she never let the other Ancients know about those... Her thoughts stopped wondering as she went back to topic, in which this portal was something which linked Ceyr and Aett, and that would be an great asset to her studies. So with a tiny strand of magic she quickly weaved it into the portal, sliding it within the lining of the magic itself looking as if it was part of the portal itself, and the rest of the portal had covered up the tiny strand of Yakushi's magic leaving it very hidden. It would be almost impossible for another ancient to forcibly pick out and not to even mention noticing the tiny string of magic in that portal unless you casted a spell like she did right now but their was always doubts. However, their delay and tiny tampering in the portal, had caused the magic to forcefully eject to two out however they had landed alright for the most part.</div></div>

The last time she had come here it was again by some questionable means that she had no longer has access to but if she could preform the portal spell then she wouldnt have much to worry. However the earlier conversation concerned her... she couldn't believe that all the ancients and the upstarts were going to speak to the corpse... this was something she differently didn't think was going to happen. It was a possibility she considered but it was a fairly low percentage of it happening... So the first thing that came up to her mind was a butterfly in which she snickered about silently.</div></div></div>"
16824,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-08 13:32:00,Muttonhawk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Those not completely distracted by the prominent portal to a realm they do not often tread within may have noticed a certain detail on the horizon of the desert out from the balcony. A feature not likely seen in dead imperial city of Roma since the year of calm waters following the Golden One's death. It was a smell in the air. A refreshing humidity. It came in with an unexpected breeze. Sharp ears could hear sand whisking across the sides of the tower in the strange change in weather. Then a shape came into view in the sky. It flagged from side to side, depositing a trail of clouds behind it that faded to nothing a kilometre further back. It was a serpent, and as it came closer, it showed its scale.

Shoshar had not shaped himself to be nearly as big as the tower, but in the final turn on his approach to the tower, he swept close enough to the balcony that it momentarily blocked out the light. Aun was replaced with a rushing wall of shimmering blue-green scales. Shoshar's body seemed to contract and shrink as he circled the tower over and over, until finally he was the width of most beings within and the length of about three of them, swimming through the air in a large bubble of water. Once small enough, he twisted upwards to slow down, then gently floated his way into the room, yellow eyes warily inspecting all present.

Some were old acquaintances, familiar faces. Some were completely new to him. Some made him hiss as he met their gaze, old enemies reunited. He had greetings owed to some, but he preferred to get to the main point of order. Shoshar found an place to coil his body and lowered the water around him until his standing head emerged from its surface. His scales emitted a cold, lowering steam as he was exposed to the desert air. His noble posture was interrupted only for his mouth to open, turn to one side, and blow out a gust of perfectly dry desert sand picked up from the journey. ""Where is Thirianna?"" Shoshar's deep, disdainful voice addressed the archangel as if she had done him a great wrong, ""This place, I have forsaken. She insults me by summoning me here, but I will listen if what she claims is true."" Shoshar's eyes inspected the portal to what was unmistakably Aett, with Thirianna on the other side. His upper lip lifted in a slight snarl, but lowered just as quickly. ""You would have us gather there after all?"" He seemed incredulous, as far as a dragon could be. It made no sense while the leaders of mortals, Ceyr at large, and even Hades were present. ""What is the meaning of this?""

As the others stepped in through the portal, Shoshar waited for the leaders of the main factions to go first. He liked the idea of being around snow rather than above this hot and dry wasteland, but he distrusted the immediate situation. If there was going to be a trap, he didn't want to fall into it head first.</div>"
16825,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-08 22:52:00,RoflsMazoy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When the portal was opened, a massive torrent of water was blown away as if there had been an explosion of some kind. It was similar to when the danger angel had entered before, except unlike the Angel, this presence wasn't strange. Simply massive. The Archangel that had called them here said it was the corpse of the Creator which made sense.

Gaon had never seen the Creator but from the stories he'd heard, his presence would probably have been greater than this.

<span class=""bb-i"">I really don't know much, do I?</span>

Gaon was well aware that he was perhaps the youngest of all the spirits. There was a chance that he was the only one born after the Creator, and the one who knew the least about spirits in general. Never was this feeling more acute than when he was told the legends of the Gods. In his travels he'd heard story after story of the glory days of Ceyr. He'd find a traveller sometimes, offer some trade, and sometimes they'd have some stories to tell.

The stories always awed him, and why would they not?

There were stories of gods splitting continents, raising civilizations, warring, destroying; Gaon found it hard to believe that he was one of them. They were weakened, yes, but just sitting in the presence of the Ancients, he could feel they had much more power than he did. He was only <span class=""bb-i"">technically</span> a god, was he really fit to walk amongst the Spirits of Old? He felt inadequate. He'd never even seen the Creator before, was he really worthy of the privilege that few people shared?

Suddenly, he felt soft fur under his hand. He looked down and saw that his deer had woken up and was nestling into his hand. His palm glowed of his own volition, and the two had a silent exchange.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Ha, it really doesn't matter does it?""</span> He said to his deer after a few seconds. <span class=""bb-b"">""We are the spirits of Ceyr, this is something we have to do.""</span>

Standing up, he dispelled his 'instinct' as he picked up his fishing rod. Holding his fishing rod with one hand, and guiding his deer with the other, he walked into the glowing portal to Aett, just as the Water Dragon made his descent.</div>"
16826,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-09 00:22:00,EsmetheGreat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With the arrival of Agimar, the hand nestled in the crook of Itones back stiffened. Itone, who had witnessed the Demons winged arrival with a fascinated but detached curiosity, rose her head to look up at Voana inquisitively, noting the hard-lipped suspicious expression on her Wifes face with a piked interest. Casting her eyes towards the Demon again, she found Agimar staring at her, an air of wariness present in his gaze before his brow raised tightly and he snapped his eyes away from her. Perplexed, Itone instead moved to look elsewhere, her eyes falling without intent on the hulking beast that had found such conflict with Thiriannas words and had addressed them without civility. 

Surprised was she to find the monster, 'Kyras' Vaul had addressed him as, peering back at her, that Itone hunched further into her Wifes body against her will, her hand coming to clutch at the end of the chainmail-skirt that hung between Voanas steel tassets. She registered Voana send a questioning hum down at her and, holding gaze with Kyras, shook her head slightly. After a few seconds, she felt Voanas hand leave her back and instead move to grip tightly at her waist and Itone, grateful for the reassuring gesture, relinquished her grip on the chainmail skirt and moved her eyes away from Kyras' form and instead cast it around the room, deciding simply not to rest her eyes on one person for too long.

They were all strange beings, Itone had decided, familiar and almost human in some ways and quite unlike the legends and stories her kind had shared around tankards and hearth. Despite the disparity between fact and fiction however, there was still something entirely untouchable about the lot of them. Something almost otherworldly , enough that Itone had no doubts that they might find advice about her...illness amongst those gathered here.

She was pulled from her quiet considerations when the sound of heavy footfall echoed around the room, and another towering being entered the fray, solid and sturdy and carrying a formidable looking War-hammer. The giant turned his chin in their direction and delivered a short but decidedly reverent nod at Voana, Itones Wife replying in kind before the being turned his attention to Thirianna. Intrigued by the beings sturdy armour and weapon, and impressed by his show of respect towards her Wife, Itone tugged on Voanas wrist for her attention and asked, ""Who is that?"" with a tilt of her chin in the giants direction. Voana looked between her Wife and the being before answering with the slightest fond twist on her lips, ""That is Dom, a great warrior, some of your people might refer to him as the God of-""

The Ancients explanation suddenly cut off in alarm at the appearance of the portal that Thirianna had summoned, apparently taking Doms arrival as an indication to proceed. Itones grasp on her Wifes wrist tightened, Voanas grip on her waist squeezing in reply before leaving her and coming to rest again on the hilt of her sheathed sword. Itone watched in fascination as Thirianna disappeared through the portal, several others within the gathering following in succession, including the quiet Sohena who gave the two of them a pointed look before stepping through. ""Where does that go Voana?"" Itone asked of her Wife, tugging again on her wrist, her eyes snapped back to Voana, taking in the distrustful expression of her face. 

""It goes to Aett, the realm that Thirianna shares with her closer kin...it exists above Ceyr..."" Voana explained, face hardening further when a frown appeared on her lips, ""...I've only been once, I didn't like it much.""

Itone regarded her Wife carefully before sweeping her eyes around the quickly emptying room, everyone else apparently as lead by the undying itch of curiosity as she. It was what had led her here, what had made her refuse Voana persistent shielding and insisted on answering the summons alongside her. When a booming voice called through the room, Itone turning to her left and witnessing, beyond all things, a <span class=""bb-i"">dragon</span> enter the room, Itone could not stop a loud bark of laughter escaping her lips at the bizarreness of it all.

""Oh come on you fool..."" Itone sang back at her Wife,her head shaking a slight to herself, tugging again at Voanas wrist until she followed her dutifully towards the portal, the two stepping through into a blinding light.</div>"

The spirits in the room had barely registered his personal presence. Neveras didn't want attention, nor did he want to feel important. But it was what they did not know, which scared even him. The Ancients believe they can just simply seal him away again if he stirs up any trouble. They must feel as if they are allowing him to be here. Neveras' conflicted mind was incomparable to what laid within him. He doubted even Sohena knew what he was capable of, but he knew that she knew.... what would become of him. Neveras' anger and love had mixed together in that pit of darkness, and it had created a <span class=""bb-i"">need</span> to do what needed to be done, whether it was right or not.

He stared at the portal as he sunk himself into deep thought, before coming to the conclusion; He was not blind. He was not weak. Right and Wrong is an illusion. He must do what is needed to make a better living. A slight pulse emitted from him that the others felt. For Sohena, it was affirmation of the future. For the others, it just meant he was getting stronger. Of course, he was gaining followers, but now he had accepted his ability to kill.

""Great Angel Thirianna."" He stated out loud, as he gently and slowly pulled his arms into a crossing, his behavior and look changing to a cold stare, perhaps and possibly heartless for a moment. ""I will respect your wishes, only once. I will listen. And that is all."" With that, his arms relaxed and he stepped forward, toward the portal. As he continued towards the portal, he paused just before entering it. Turning his head, he gave Vaul a look. One that struck him in his core. Neveras made it strong, forcing it through Vaul's entire being... before continuing through the portal.

Neveras had marked Vaul.

To the others, they could tell Neveras was no longer uppity, snarky, or loud. He had become ....hollow. While none knew of his potential, it would be right to fear him. Not as an undefeat-able being, but it would become the same as fearing a boulder falling from the sky and striking a Mortal. He was destined with the power to kill Ancients, and he could only be killed by Mortals. He was a threat to everyone, and not one that could be brushed off.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">*clap*</span> Hiraga's head snapped in the direction of the sound. Her face twisted into an annoyed expression. Thirianna was pushing her luck with her behavior. ""Does she really expect me to leave my realm unguarded?"" she growled, suddenly very much understanding why Kyras was so angry. She waited as others left through the portal, adamant about being the last to leave. She would not leave any angel or demon in her realm while she was gone, friendly or estranged.

""Unguarded? You hold no trust in your fellow gods, nor your lieutenants in the treants and dryads?"" Kyras quirked up a feathery brow, one head holding Hiraga's attention, the other watching the others step into the portal. He watched as Dorn, characteristically stoic, was second into it, following Yakushi, and the arch-demon was mildly annoyed at the minor tremors that accompanied the God of Man's footsteps.

Giving Kyras an amused glance, Hiraga elaborated: ""My dryads are hardly enough to deter someone of your power. And trust? Your territorial war before the War in Heaven was ruining this beautiful world while all I could do was try and minimize the damage. I sworn to never let something like that happen again. And to be honest,"" she said, giving the portal a pointed gaze, ""I thought about crossing this one with my own. It woud be a fitting trap for our <span class=""bb-i"">dear</span> sister.  A few millenia spent in a cage like that of Neveras might teach her some manners."" she shared the thought. ""So please, go ahead.""

Kyras, much as he would have loved arguing over the sins of the past, pulled one birdy head back a few inches at the gesture of encouragement. ""Well, much as I would love to go first, dearest sister of mine, I am quite afraid age takes precedence over beauty."" His voice practically dripped mischievousness. ""Then there is the human cultural value of 'ladies first.' It wouldn't be appropriate if you went in second.""

""Very well then, it would appear there is no other choice. Shall we, brother?"" she said, extending an arm to indicate she wnated them to go at the same time. If nothing else, Hiraga thought, seeing the two other guardians acting familiar might annoy their angelic counterpart to no end. In her mind it was worth it if only for that, not that she had any particular distaste for the demon lord.

But though one part of Kyras mirrored Hiraga's thoughts and wanted to indulge them, he wasn't particularly keen on visiting Aett. Angels and Demons were, after all, vengeful opposites ever since the schismatic War in Heaven split the spirits into three distinct groups. Though both wanted to see the return of the past, one desired nothing of the Golden One in the future. The fact that most of what was solid of the Maker's cadaver rested on the snowy world (the rest were gassy clouds of essence floating in the void between the three worlds) represented effectively why the place was anathema to the Demons.

But under the circumstances, Kyras knew that he had to free himself of the guilt, hatred and fear he associated with the accursed planet. ""Very well,"" he decided, with a reedy sigh. History was in the making. ""Let's.""

And he took one clawed step forward, expecting Hiraga to do the same.

Nodding in understanding, Hiraga stepped through along with her eldest brother. She knew better than to state out loud that he was afraid, and even better than to hint that his big sister would protect him in need. The demons were more notorious of their pride than any other of the factions. Still it didn't need to be said. She has always kept the balance, adn this would be no different.

Aett. Ceyr's guardian goddess had very little interest in the angels' plane. All it was to her was a reminder of her greatest failure. At times she thought Aett and Hades were parts of Ceyr forcefully split from it, and her healm was the husk that remained once it's light and shadows became separate. Hiraga has often wondered if she was right, and if that was so whether it was possible to reunite the three into one again.</div>"

The angels would let demons, upstarts, and gods alike into the sanctuary kept from them for so long? He shook his head. This had to be some elaborate trap.

However, much to Agimar's surprise, it seemed that the spirits had appeared beside Thirianna largely unharmed. If the portal was a trap waiting to be sprung, is seemed Agimar would be needed to spring it. He contemplated Aett for a moment, wondering whether it was truly a good idea to follow the others through its rippling surface. 

""Well, better late than never.""

He spoke, even if there was nobody else there to hear him. It was something he had picked up in Hades, largely because he tended to avoid the other demons. He really needed to break himself of that.

Agimar shook himself out of the brief reverie and walked into Aett.</div>"
16830,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-09 13:42:00,Muttonhawk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kyras and Hiraga's back and forth was making Shoshar believe that shoving the two headed bird forcibly into the portal was a viable possibility. It became a better idea in his mind the more he thought about it, but their words eventually brought them forward together anyway. He wouldn't be the one to test Kyras' mettle today.

Now, the chamber was looking far emptier than Shoshar had beheld upon entering. Either side of him were a short goblin creature and some other mortal looking upstart. There was no telling when they would hurry along. Nearby was one other, more recognisable visage. Vaul. He might have been in on the trap if it existed, but Shoshar was getting tired of this idleness. The last demon present, Agimar, was through in any case.

Shoshar gave a low growl. ""I will not be the cowardly tail end of this procession,"" he proclaimed, springing forward and slithering through the air in his unnaturally moving water. His form slid into the portal until it swallowed the dragon whole. The speed at which he swam forth left a wake in the portal that made the image it projected shimmer and ripple beyond recognition for a short while.

Instantly, relief came over Shoshar as he entered the climate of Aett. Before doing anything, he took up some of the surrounding snow and swirled it about his personal water to cool himself. It was only Shoshar's right as a guest, especially after Thirianna insisted on meeting in a location on Ceyr that was anathema to him. The cool made him audibly sigh, before he opened his eyes and better inspected the surrounding realm.

There was a time where the Golden One's loss drove Shoshar's grief to madness, but it had been a long time since then. He knew the angels to hold their own kind of madness for believing that they can rebuild or reincarnate the Golden One, but it was worth indulging their obsession to check that what they said was not true. Shoshar expected today to be no different.

Ahead, Shoshar's eyes narrowed for a second. ""You there, boy,"" Shoshar caught up beside Gaon Latze and held his neck up high to look down on the fisherman god, ""The last time I beheld you, it was under different circumstances. Do not make the mistake of being insolent here."" Shoshar's tone hissed with threat that implied that he was talking about insolence towards himself, but the words themselves made for good general advice. This was a gathering of spirits. The ancients held the most power here.</div>"

Others pushed past around him.  Without conscious thought, he lifted one foot after the other and approached.  His right hand gripped the hilt of his sword tightly in the loop at his right hip while his left moved forward slightly, palm down, fingers extended as though steadying himself while moving forward.

He had never seen snow before.  He knew of weather, and seasons, and climates and hemispheres and currents of the wind and the seas.  But he had never explored.  The rest of the world had never been an option.  Dust had never even considered leaving his soulless, blasted land for another.  And here he was, a door to the heavens open before him, snow falling upon flushed Featherwind trees, cosmic dust streaking across the infinite golden sky surrounding an amber Aun.

He stepped through, brilliant ripples curving around his small frame and welcoming him home.</div>"

—————————————————————————

In contrast to the Ullanor Wastelands, the hills of the Plain of Eternal Welcomes were not red with sand, but bluish white with snow. Perhaps the transition from hot to cold alarmed the upstarts with its suddenness, but none of the ancients even shuddered at the unnaturality of it. 

The proper resting place of the Golden One as it contained most of what was solid of its corpse, the world of Aett was shrouded in its essence; and as the party's souls partook of the invisible life-stuff imperceptibly, they felt their bodies reacting immediately and filling with sudden vigor. A familiar hotness began from their hearts and spread to their toes and fingertips, and this welcome feeling distracted Vaul enough from his silent anger at Neveras' hostility for him to be mildly cheerful. The winds here were strange in that, though they were cold, they did not bite, and one could look at Aun without damaging his sight. Eternal Welcomes, indeed; though Kyras frowned while Thirianna smiled.

<a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Itone</a>, the half-breed, however, felt nothing.

The grove of trees that consisted of the picturesque preview on the portal was revealed to be but the end of a massive forest that flourished behind it, its species alien and exotic to Ceyr, with flowers that glowed with a nimbus of eerie purple about them, and strange, ghostly deer whose existences were not purely material and were nigh-undetectable to even <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369832"">Hiraga</a>'s inborn senses. The treeline marked the artificial beginning of a large clearing that ended at the feet of the Fortress of Redemption's oppressively high walls of cold, blackened steel, which circled the complex protectively. It had but one vaulted gatehouse, its twin doors as high as a hundred men, directly in front of the party, but quite far away. Thirianna was already gliding through the snow, which parted from her feet to reveal the soil, that she could walk sure-footed.

The corpse of the Creator lay but a kilometer ahead. Even while hidden by the walls of the Fortress, the ancients could glance illusory images of it if they stared at the direction where the divine cadaver slowly continued to erode into misty essence. But this was no recent thing, and was common knowledge to all those who had visited Aett at least once: Vaul, Dorn and the very reluctant Kyras made sure not to stare at the grey aquila that gilded the keystone of the gatehouse's arch, lest they relived memories they would have rathered not, as they followed the winged spirit in her wake.

""I cannot feel the Maker's heartbeat,"" Kyras commented. ""Can you, <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369948"">Agimar</a>? This feels like a trap.""

""A trap?"" Thirianna echoed, shooting the avian deity an amused look over her shoulder. ""You dearest visitors of mine outnumber the native ancients of this place by quite a few heads. Attacking you would be folly.""

""The War in Heaven is long past, Kyras,"" Vaul pointed out. ""And there's enough hostility here,"" he took a gander at <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2372554"">Neveras</a>, whom he was beginning to dismiss as an unpleasant nuisance. ""I would rather you be quiet. <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2369608"">There</a> <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2371758"">are</a> <a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities/char#post-2370195"">infants</a> around.""</div>"
16833,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-10 12:44:00,Forsythe,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Inferiority is <span class=""bb-i"">why</span> you set up a trap, instead of a head on attack."" Hiraga noted, watchful of her surroundings. She didn't know how to feel about the two spirit realms. Unlike Ceyr, she couldn't feel quite such a connection, doubt in her mind whether the alien growths and incorporeal beings resembling animals even deserved to be called nature. Why in their right minds would someone choose to live in place such as this?

Perhaps being so close to the Golden One's remains for so long caused the angels to go mad. She could feel it's euphoric effects even on her. Along with them the hint of a power she long didn't possess. Just like Ceyr's nature lived and died with her, so was the bond between the ancients and their creator. And the firstborn was feeling the loss the most, having being in the presence of His essence far longer than most of the others.

She was wary of the fact that Thirianna brought them this far out. She didn't put it past the Arch angel to make an attempt on them yet, even though she couldn't find any motive as to why for now. She stopped understanding her siblings when they started warring over the realm. Perhaps she was an idealist. And maybe there was a good reason. Who knew if the Arch-angel could even make the portal go close, of whether the essence of the Creator interfered with the magic. She was willing to trust trust her a little further.

""You would presume to be able to comprehend what how His death would affect him?"" She asked Kyras. The Arch-demon forgot all too easily that there were greater powers in the universe than himself, and things beyond his understanding. One thing bothered her though.

<span class=""bb-i"">Where are the other angels?</span></div>"

He'd never been there of course, so it was quite a new experience for him. He saw in the nearby forest a huge amount of creatures he'd never seen before, and he suddenly developed a desire to fish. He could feel his bait bag react to his will, and he knew that if he put his hand into it, he could find bait for any of the creatures ahead of him. But that wasn't what he was here for. 

He saw it now, illusions and phantasms floated in front of the wall of a far off fortress, he wasn't sure what of but he could guess.

He was here to visit the creator, and discuss the ramifications. But still, he wondered if he could fish for a while after they were done...

""You there, boy."" A voice behind him suddenly. Gaon turned quickly to see the face of the Water Dragon, the one that had saved him some time ago.

""The last time I beheld you, it was under different circumstances."" He said. ""Do not make the mistake of being insolent here.""

<span class=""bb-b"">""Ah, right...""</span> Gaon said, sheepishly lowering his fishing rod and bowing his head slightly. <span class=""bb-b"">""I'll keep that in mind.""</span>

He'd forgotten for a second that he was probably the youngest person in the meeting, everyone was his elder. Although, when he had been human all of the people in the village had been his elder as well. In the village he hadn't really felt the age gap, but in the meeting he could practically feel the years radiating from the Ancients. There was something about Aett though, that made him feel somewhat more calm than usual.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Ah, I just remembered!""</span> He said to the Water Dragon, <span class=""bb-b"">""I never found out what you're name was!""</span> Then he faltered for a second, because he realized again, he was supposed to respect his elders. <span class=""bb-b"">""Or is that something you don't want to tell me?""</span></div>"
16835,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-11 10:51:00,Art of Fun,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Being not much older than forty years of age, Varavana had never experienced Aett or its hellish counterpart. The sudden rush of unique sensation came as a surprise to him, feeling as if his body was beginning to rip its self apart at the metaphorical seams. In almost the same moment he came out from the other side of the ripple, his body morphed and compacted into the much smaller form of a green-feathered owl. Only after the rather sudden transformation did the pain subside. Flight came naturally to Varavana, taking briefly to the air to find an appropriate spot to land.

<span class=""bb-i"">'What on Ceyr was that...?'</span> The Upstart thought to himself, finding even his vocal capacities reduced, <span class=""bb-i"">'It felt like -'</span> he paused in his thought, thinking of a way to describe the ungodly pain to even himself, <span class=""bb-i"">'I was being picked apart.'</span> He finished, large yellow eyes squinting in the air. He descended, landing upon the shoulder of Hiraga softly. Of all those present, she was the least likely to swat him after all.

The reflective feathers glinted as Varavana turned his head at an almost 180 degree angle to stares back at where they had come from, large eyes blinking.

<span class=""bb-i"">'...This is a different world. I cannot connect with the creatures here.'</span> He concluded upon looking around at the vast forest surrounding them and the creatures just out sight. <span class=""bb-i"">'It is a wonder I did not revert into whatever state I was in upon my creation.'</span> An idea that was not completely unappealing to the Upstart, but not something he wanted to discover when surrounded by the others. 

Varavana looked at the eyes of Hiraga's humanoid form, giving an apologetic tilt of the head. For one such as herself, the simple message of 'sorry' would be easily carried through such a gesture.</div>"
16836,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-11 13:27:00,Muttonhawk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">After Gaon Latze's answer, Shoshar looked forward and meandered ahead of him, inhaling the golden air of Aett to taste the abundance of power. He had intended to ignore the upstarts from then on, but his breath caught in his throat upon hearing that Gaon Latze didn't even know his name. He halted in place and slowly turned around to leer at him with wide, disbelieving eyes. Whether it was the look he was given or the realisation of Shoshar's advice, he seemed to partially back off, but Shoshar was not letting him get away with it.

""My...name?"" Shoshar started in a low rumble. Shoshar's head emerged from the front of his water bubble. For effect, he spread a layer of sparkling frost over his face in a regal pattern. ""Have the mortals in your home lost their respect enough to forget <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> name!?"" Shoshar coiled upwards in front of Gaon to look as big and imposing as possible and fashioned a pair of wings wrought from ice either side of the middle of his body. Looking down at Gaon, he bellowed such that his voice echoed. ""I am Shoshar! The Water Dragon! Liege of Storms and Sire of the Seas!"" Shoshar showed his teeth and lowered his voice, the impact made clear, ""I hold many secrets, but my name is not one. Mortals who dishonour me by forgetting it hold no welcome on the water. See that you do not forget, little fisherboy."" Shoshar slithered downwards until he was at eye level with Gaon, melting his crystalline wings back into his water bubble. In this position Shoshar's head was over half Gaon's entire size. Shoshar's breath was much colder on the fisherman's front than the odd climate of Aett. ""I made you what you are. I can just as easily revert you to a drowning whelp.""

Shoshar tossed his head to one side with a ""hmph!"" and swam away side to side. Though he hardly perceived it, Shoshar found that he had to put forth more effort than usual to stay angry with Gaon Latze. He had some atmosphere about him that seemed to affect Shoshar's temper.

Up ahead was a sight that even brought Shoshar to quieten. Never had there been such a magnificent and at the same time haunting sarcophagus as the the Fortress of Redemption. Paying respect didn't seem appropriate. This structure <span class=""bb-i"">demanded</span> respect by its nature. Shoshar didn't know whether he wanted to go further to see the Golden One's corpse. Even if the creator was dead, the aura was uneasy.</div>"
16837,Godhood - A Tale of Deities,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76127-godhood-a-tale-of-deities,['Casual'],2015-02-11 17:34:00,King Solterra,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Neveras slowly sifted through the portal, still in his cold demeanor as he over heard the yelling from the beast near him. ""You are in the presence of the very thing that created you, and you dare bring hostility before him? You would be wise to keep your tongue, lizard."" He spoke at Shoshar, ""Lest I, myself, remove it."" Neveras already planned for Vaul to be one of the very first, so he didn't care how he felt about himself. But if Shoshar wants to be disrespectful to family then he can be on the list as well.

As Neveras was in his thoughts, he continued on the path presented to him from the portal. ""I don't have all day, I have things to do, so let's hurry this up, Great Angel Thirianna"" He spoke out loud, as if a prayer, knowing she would hear him. The portal nor the body of the creator affected him as much as it did the others. The portal was a theatric, just a simple door, that any angel could make... if they had the power. The body... he felt its' presence before the great war, so in its' death, it was still as overwhelming as ever.

But none of this mattered to him. He was giving his last respects to everyone until he decided to give everyone one chance, and leave. Neveras was done with the squabbling, disrespect, and forced way of life the spirits had created. He was going to change it.</div>"

The figure's silhouette moved with the mirages of heat, a massive cloak protected the figure from the blasting winds, shrouded his form, and provided a small oasis of shade from the beating sun. Eventually, the figure stood before the Tower of Broken Dreams. Crossing the threshold of the structure, the man removed his hood, revealing sharp features with forgiving eyes and wind-blown hair; Praeth.</span>

Steps echoed through the stairwell as Praeth ascended the tower, step after step. The shy rustle of the cloak rubbing against his worn armor was the only other noise in the desolate area. Slowly, Praeth's speed increased, he understood that he lacked in punctuality, and the missed opportunity to experience conversing with gods would only leave a bitter regret. The tempo of footsteps rose and the bristling of Praeth's broad cloak increased in furiosity, however meekly.

Praeth eventually reached the open landing in which a portal stood, a silent but domineering doorway. Praeth understood his objective lay on the other side of the portal, but it was also the only barrier protecting Praeth from the scorning eyes of those who had cast him out and banished him with no small amount of prejudice. In a choice between fight or flight, Praeth simply shrugged, as if shrugging of countless eons of isolation; he strode through the portal confidently, moving between two planes as normally as mounting a horse.

Stepping through the portal, disorientation only lasted half a second as Praeth's eyes quickly re-focused, gazing about and appraising his surroundings, Aett. Quickly, his eyes settled on the spirits, despite the beauty of the landscape, they held all of his attention. Quietly he observed his brothers and sisters, awaiting a notification of the mood before he uttered something brash or ignorant. Endless years of silence would know no difference if he held his breath or spoke nonsense in that moment. Pleasantries would have been the only form of speech Praeth would have been able to manage as he gazed upon the only beings that had remained unchanged as he stood among mortals.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">In the beginning, there was nothing,</span> save for a great golden sphere that lay still contemplatively at the center of the void. For many eternities, it was peaceful this way, until a smaller orb, bright and blue, split from the golden one, and orbited around its parent energetically. The golden orb was at the same time curious and confused as the blue orb began to shroud the blackness of the universe with a sea of stars, making twinkling lights that irritated the golden orb. The blue orb was asked to stop, but it was simply too engrossed and enchanted with its powers of creation. When it molded the infant matter that would become Ceyr and her mother star, the primordial planet accidentally showered the golden orb with great gouts of fire from its young and pulsing core. Such was the anger of the golden orb that it struck down the blue orb, but was, too, enchanted by the act of creation when it took upon the dead god's work. 

The golden orb gave Ceyr its seas, hills, mountains, plains and deserts. It realized, then, that the blanket of stars provided lighting too dim for it to work, so it cast from what spare matter was at hand to create Aun, mother star of Ceyr. It was a massive thing, and what was once meant to be simply a tool to help shape Ceyr became a monument to the golden orb, and it shined in the same colors as its sculptor. Then, when the golden orb had finished creating most of Ceyr with this new light, it was dissatisfied with its inanimate surface.

And so, the golden orb poured itself onto Ceyr, drowning the young planet in its essence as life came to be. Grasses grew, then were suddenly under the shade of trees. Beasts of all shapes and sizes began to wander the plains of the planet. It was a time when golden rivers of light fell from the heavens, and where they terminated came many animals and drifting seeds for plant life. But the golden orb was still dissatisfied, for these beasts lived and died with little consequence.

So it decided to create spirits. Spirits were blessed with the purest of essences from the golden orb, and were also gifted the boons of intellect and ambition. At first, they were peaceful, but eventually, selfishness came to be known, and territories were marked by great pillars of stone, metal, fire, ice or trees that rose up towards the heavens, and they warred against each other, tearing whole continents asunder. The golden orb saw this as good, and it wanted to make more spirits, but they took so much effort to create, and so were destined to only be few.

So came the mortals. They had two hands, two arms, two feet and two legs, and the spirits claimed dominion over them. The spirits, though by no means as great and terrible as the golden orb, had powers of creation of their own, and so fashioned them through the generations in their own image: rising through the ancient wars of the spirits to establish themselves as the dominant races were the humans, elves, and orcs, among others. Millennia went by and the golden orb saw hatred, war, greed, trickery and deceit; but it also saw love, compassion, trust, friendship and care. It saw these as good, but there was a problem:

What the golden orb poured into Ceyr did not return to it, and it felt itself growing weaker and weaker. The spirits drew their powers from it, but they expended its energy carelessly as they thought it was infinite. It was a mistake of the golden orb to not inform of the spirits of its situation when it cut itself off from Ceyr, and the spirits saw this as a betrayal, that they had lost the golden one's favor and that they were doomed to die true deaths. So began the War in Heaven, and almost all the spirits were massacred before the golden orb erupted, and its death-screams sent tremors through the very concept of existence itself.

And in the aftermath, two new realms were born. One existed above Ceyr and was called Aett, where the golden one's love and compassion gathered after its death, and is a world bountiful with all things. The other existed below Ceyr, and was called Hades, and it was the hatred of the golden orb made manifest; a world of fire and ash that now roars flames upwards so high they dissipate just before impacting Ceyr's atmosphere.

What very few remained of the ancient spirits went to any of the three worlds. Some remained on Ceyr, to mend its great wounds and guide the mortals they called their children out of the post-apocalyptic anarchy brought about by the War in Heaven and towards greatness once more, calling themselves ""gods"". From the golden mists in the wake of the golden one's death, there are new, upstart spirits who are weaker than the ancient ones, and these weaker upstarts the gods label as untrue and impure, and seek to destroy them.

There were those who were wracked with guilt over killing the golden orb, and now jealously guard the entrance to Aett, letting only those with pure hearts and souls enter, calling themselves ""angels"", and sometimes descend into Ceyr or even Hades to try and destroy those they think were the main perpetrators for the War in Heaven, even though all spirits took up arms against the golden one. They believe Aett is the golden orb reborn, for it is lush with everything, and they will try almost anything to awaken its soul.

The last few were the first to take up arms against the golden orb, and now seek to reclaim what was lost on Hades by meddling with powers beyond their comprehension by knitting together pieces of the golden orb's disintegrating corpse into terrible artifacts with powers spoken of only in legend. These spirits called themselves ""demons"".

You are one of these spirits, and you call yourself god, angel or demon -- if you are one of the ancients. Or maybe you are one of the handful that have got no or differing convictions. Either way, almost all spirits want back what they lost during the War in Heaven, and they are desperate enough to resort to violence.

<span class=""bb-b"">Centuries have passed</span> since the War in Heaven, and Ceyr's wounds have only begun to close and scar. Great canyons forcibly gouged out by powers incomprehensible still crisscross the planet as it tries to get rid of them, but that would take many millennia. Mortal civilizations were utterly destroyed during the climactic battle between the Golden One and its great and terrible children, and even under the wisdom of gods they still cannot compare to the greatness of their ancestors. Where are the skyships they used to conquer the very skies? Where are the great arcologies, with societies where one might live amongst millions but still find genuine fulfillment of self? They are gone, and some for good. Humans, dwarves, orcs and elves and other races have meekly crawled back to the surface from the deepest caves, holding only scraps of the legacy of their great grandparents. In their desperation, they scurry around the ruins of once-great cities, finding ancient knowledge to rediscover and remaster as they begin to reforge what was lost.

But it is not only the mortals who have suffered from the death of their creator, the Golden One. The ancient spirits used to be able to crack whole continents, but now can only destroy cities -- and even that takes whole minutes to complete; for all magic was and still is tied to the essence of the Creator. What few are left of the great body count the Golden One's scythe reaped from their numbers during the War in Heaven feel regret, from killing their Mother and Father; remorse, from their inaction when their brothers and sisters took up arms; or sorrow, from not having done enough to protect the Golden One.

No mortal inhabits the new realms of Aett, Realm of Love, and Hades, Realm of Hatred, for these are the domains of the spirits. Angels in the former want to see the Golden One live again, but neither the gods nor the demons believe it can be done. The gods of Ceyr, Realm of Life, have decided that they cannot dwell in the past, and must forge on to a new future, however bleak it is; but the angels and demons believe this to be foolish, for what are they without the Golden One? And the demons create the most terrible of artifacts and dabble in creation -- something which only the Golden One could do -- in an attempt to emulate their Creator, and perform the most gruesome and disgusting of magics to meet their goals, arguing that the end justifies the means; but the angels and the gods believe this to be blasphemy, in addition to simply being repulsive, arrogant and insufferably pretentious.

But for all their conflicts, the ancient spirits have one clear desire in mind: a return to the glory they once knew, when the land wasn't cracked and rivers of light still flowed from their benevolent Creator onto Ceyr.

Only five dozen ancient spirits remain, out of many thousands, and they are all so weak. Survivors of a conflict that should not have been. Doomed to a forsaken future, haunted by a happy past, and living in a depressing present.

But there is hope.

There is a summons to the Tower of Broken Dreams, a gargantuan, ancient structure of glass, marble and sapphire on Ceyr once utilized by a close group of ancient spirits in an age long forgotten. Who they were and how they used the place is irrelevant, but it is remarkable that the building still stands, given the War in Heaven, and the tithes demanded by time as it goes by. The message, conveyed by Thirianna, figurehead of the angels, invites all the children of the Golden One -- her fellow angels, the gods, the demons and even the upstarts -- to discuss the future.

She claims the dismembered corpse of the Golden One stirs in the void between the three worlds of Aett, Ceyr and Hades; she claims that the Origin's magnificent soul is reforming. She speaks of the impossible, that the Creator is rising from its grave. Indeed, this is something to bring the fractious natures of angel, god, demon and upstart together as simply Spirits united under Its All-knowing Gaze. 

As a spirit, a direct child of the Golden One, it is imperative that you attend. Journey to the Ullanor Wastelands, enter the Tower of Broken Dreams, and take a seat. Fate needs to be discussed.</div></div>

Age: Ancient - The Observer
Appearance: <a href=""http://i2.minus.com/ioZCsuQ0iH4n4.png"">http://i2.minus.com/ioZCsuQ0iH4n4.png</a> 
Nature: God  
Personality: Humble, though an odd thing to say for a god. He is very calm and is never in a rush. Very business-like, though he can get lost in his own thoughts at times, usually due to a civilization surviving longer than he thought or a new fangled invention/use of magic done by the upstarts/mortals. 
Skills and Abilities: As an aspect of time, his abilities involve a slight ability to dabble in the currents of time, drawing power from them. This by no means is a direct hand in time, as even the God of Time can't change the rivers course. He can slow down or speed up time in certain areas, so long as he is there. He also has the ability of creating near infinite copies of himself, which he jokingly calls his ""Paradoxes"". These copies all have a small amount of his own power and are used mainly to keep eyes on the goings on of the world, recording and observing just as the big man himself does. If any being speaks to one or for some reason provokes one of his Paradoxes, Perpetiel will be present nigh instantly to find out what is happening. 

Backstory: Perpetiel came to be around the same time as Higaga, though he found himself in a far different role than she. Though the god does care for his world, he found that his role was to be a silent observer and protecter over the rivers of time. Throughout his ""life"", Perpetiel has been steadfast in his position, never picking sides in the relatively routine outbreaks of conflict between his brothers/sisters and the beings they created. Now, he doesn't have a problem with life or the mortals, but the constant pattern of prosperity followed by war and destruction has left him a bit withdrawn from Ceyr. Regardless, he is constant in his duty, for time stops for no god. He was also on the side lines of the War on Heaven, chronicling it instead of taking a direct role. However, this wasn't the main reason and that is something that even those close to Perpetiel don't know, nor would they understand. 
Connections: (so far)
Higaga - Being born relatively close in time to the guardian of Ceyr, Perpetiel has a steady respect for her. They aren't close by any means, but due to his own nature as Observer, Perpetiel doesn't often come to hostilities with her. However, he is a bit shaky on their terms, much ado to her chaotic nature.  

Sohena - At times he hates her for her Foresight, as every vision she shares causes the river to become distorted and split, with countless variations going in every which way. However, this same ability that causes his duty countless problems also acts to allow him to connect in a little way to another god. This is due to her being caught in the river of time, even for just a second, which allows her a glimpse into his never ending service.  
Religion: All mortals belong to the passage of time. 
Nation: Universal, like his older sister. 


Sort of finished.</div>"

Updated connections section:

Danives: Agimar and Danives don't get along amazingly well. While nothing between them has been violent, Agimar considers Danives' followers to be a perpetual nuisance, due to their tendency to kill off his own contacts. Agiimar is openly hostile, and it probably wouldn't take all that much of a disturbance for a fight between the two to break out.

Hiraga: Agimar sees the use of Hiraga's role, but he isn't exactly enthusiastic about her policing. While they aren't the best of friends by any means, he would probably side with her in the event of a common threat. His attitude towards her is generally a kind of grudging respect, and he takes care to stay on her good side. 

Dust: Dust is, in most cases, largely beneath Agimar's notice. He has some sympathy for the upstart, but sees him as having no bearing on his plans one way or another. Agimar does take a slight interest in the Desolace, however, and would be interested in learning about what happened to it so long ago.

Others will be added as they are accepted, I guess.</div>"

For Danives and Higara I've added connections for Voana and Sohena, as for Itone, I feel like Voana would prefer to shield her from other Gods and spirits, probably both out of caution and jealousy, and so Itone has little knowledge of the other Gods.

Age: Ancient

Appearance: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/9iewEgm.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">(His angelic form. He has a Demon form and a True form, the only differences are that he has evil-ish looking wings, angelic wings, or one of each)</span>

Nature: Independant

Personality: Neveras is a quirky kind of Angel, or Demon. Yes, he believes he is both, but he calls himself Neveras the Angelic Demon. He can be a smartass, a jokester, he is very unpredictable... and even when faced with the impossible, he still thinks he can do the impossible. He can be silly, perverted, macho, and even greedy, but Neveras is only expressing the many traits of the Mortals. For he was created in their realm, on Ceyr, and believes that he is the one to take the Mortals side in discussions, out casting the Creator, even though the Creator created him. Neveras seeks to save the Mortals and bring them back to a flourishing time. However, with the obtaining of all the Mortals feelings, emotions, and personalities, it may have become a backfire, as when he escaped the forbidden sanctuary (Which he calls the Pit), he may have either came out enraged... or uncaring. He may have became greedy with the want for power, or came out just to be out, and no longer cares for his purpose.

Skills and Abilities: Neveras can not be killed by any Upstart, and can only be killed by Mortals. By Ancients (Who remember the cursed seal enchantment), he can only be sealed back inside of his banished realm, which is just a spiritual sanctuary where he is bound eternally until released.

-Neveras has an ancient weapon, which is only a spiritual weapon that he can form into any style he wishes (May it be a sword, a knife, a spear, etc) which he chooses to be a sword. This sword can kill any Angel or Demon, but not those of pure heart. It is also the weapon that Mortals can wield and kill Neveras with it, but in a Mortals hands it can do nothing else. If Neveras dies, the sword dissipates.

-Without Neveras' sacred weapon, he can create a spiritual weapon that has only the power to resist an Angel or Demons attacks, but the spiritual weapon does not give him strength or invincibility or anything, as it only acts as a shield or another sword to clash with another sword. With both weapons, Neveras can take on multiple opponents. However, he is still not all powerful, both weapons only give him the ability to fight multiple Spirits, as with just one or the other weapon, Neveras is weak against multiple opponents.

-Neveras has the ability to heal Mortals from grievous or light wounds, but can not bring them back from the dead.

-Neveras has a created inability, where if he escapes from his Forbidden Sanctuary, without being released, he is still bound in his chains. From this, he is slower, weaker, and does not have his outward abilities such as he is able to pull his Sacred Sword to his hand, locate his sword wherever it may be, and heal Mortals. When he is still bound in spiritual chains, an Upstart can banish him back to his Forbidden Sanctuary, if they know the enchantment.

-His ability to kill other Spirits is defined by how much power he has, which is from how many followers he has. With little to no followers, he can strike any Upstart as long as he has his weapon. The more power he gains, the more likely he can take on even the most powerful Ancients/Gods.

Backstory: The reason for his creation was because Neveras was supposed to create balance between the other Spirits, making sure neither became more powerful than another. Neveras was supposed to be powerful enough to take out those who seek to be One God, or be the complete powerful rulers on Ceyr, this made sure any Mortal and any Spirit may choose the way the life they wish without forcing all Mortals or Spirits to live One Life. If Neveras ever turned towards his darker side, becoming too greedy and wanting to be the very thing he was created to take down, then it was for the Mortals, the Mediums to be granted the ability to outright strike Neveras, for he has no power against them. However, during the battle of Heaven, it was made as the decision to banish Neveras for all eternity. Long before the decision was made, there was always an argument over Neveras' true purpose, for he was unlike the others. Many thought of him as a bad batch, maybe a Spirit who would find a way to kill them all, gain more power. Maybe it was their greed, or their fright, but along with the creation of Neveras... all of the Ancient Spirits were given the knowledge of the seal enchantment, and the enchantment to release him... which Mortals can use, but that meant Neveras also had that knowledge. Unfortunately, any Mortal he gave that knowledge to is surely gone due to the events that occurred while he was sealed away, which is why he never escaped, until now.

The only reason, in fact, that Neveras escaped his eternal containment was because an Ancient (Ancient Angels Neveras sees as ArchAngels) Spirit must be made to stand guard over the spiritual realm of his banishment, giving it power to hold him and keep him weak. But who ever was made to keep the seal strong, was lost, went away, or died. Neveras never got the name of his guard, but over the time he gained more power, and the seal became weaker. Until he escaped, but because of his escape, the seal had burst, which alerted all the Spirits. Telling them Neveras has escaped, and he could gain the power to kill them. Especially in a time like this, where the Spirits are divided, Neveras sees he has been gone for far too long, and everything is unbalanced by a severe degree. However, even aside from the chains, Neveras has not regained his full power. And he won't. Because Neveras was made for the Mortals, he must have followers to regain his true power. He must have many Mortals to use the enchantment to break his chains, and only then, can he find his sacred sword. The sacred spiritual weapon that was also locked away, like him, but no Ancient is left that even knows where it is.

Connections: If Vilhem would be alright with it, I would wish that his character and Neveras were somewhat ""Friends"" back in the day, and that Danives knew the ancient seal enchantment. For others, I guess we would have to see how they feel about him re-emerging, but his biggest rival was Voana

Religion: Neveras once had a scripture on his religion, but if it still exists... it would be a miracle through all of the death and chaos. It told the Mortals of Neveras, that he was a great Warrior who fought for the sanctity and life of all mortal men, who would not allow Fate to determine their lives, but that they would live the way they wished, but they could not harm one another or create any force against another. The scripture still remains, and few Mortals know of it, but they don't know what they should believe.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>
Ancient

<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span>  
Independant 
Harvester of Knowledge, Weaver of Intellect</div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">As one of the first several spirits on Ceyr when it was created, Yakushi has always been separated from her kind and always been indulging in what the mortals have done, when not under the control of the spirits of course. She was sure to never be caught showing too much interest in the other race, by keeping to herself and practicing her own thing so when questioned she could easily counter them. Showing them her impressive skill of using the magical arts. But now after the death of the Golden Orb and in the current age, people know Yakushi as person, or whatever she is whether Mortal, Upstart or Ancient everyone knows that she is a powerful person in many ways. 

She is often known for her mass collection of knowledge in the world and knows about almost anything, whether its just from rumors or ancient texts she usually finds a way to verify facts from lies. She is generally told to be a helpful person to those who are able to find her but there have only been scattered reports about it in Ceyr, and is easily found by the mystical beast that follows her around which stands out like a sore thumb. It is easy to win her favor with the gifts of knowledge of any kind whether musical, artistic or anything else. Knowledge is the best way to win her over, but there are other more tricky ways to earn her favor, one which is to present rare items to her while another would be to give her animals of the same quality as the items. However, presenting fake items would indeed no doubt incite anger upon those who indeed try to trick her, causing her to simply at best give them a simple curse that would last for their life and leave. It is said that she has no permanent place in which she stays however often finds herself in forbidden, restricted and many other places that are often guarded and closed to the public. However if there is one thing that Yakushi is known for, it is her interest with the mortals that makes her an well known person.</div></div>

Its not that she is shy or reclusive, she is just more interested and watching how life goes it's natural flow while doing her own thing hoping people dont mind. It isn't often that you find her talking to people, and that is only when she finds the interesting. However she has a natural curiosity for things and easily is distracted by new things that peak her interest.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Skills and Abilities"" type=""button"">Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Her interest with the mortals has taught her many skills that she has honed to a satisfactory level for Yakushi's standards in which she is happy with. Scientifically, her skills in medicine are advance as it is one of the areas of interest that she likes to indulge in due to the expansiveness that area has and all the possibilities there is to simply solve a problem. Herbology is also included with her knowledge of medicine as she has found out that sometimes these natural remedies are matter in fact better than the artificial things that medicine can produce sometimes.  If we were to list all the skills that Yakushi knows it would take days, but we can simply assume that she is a very educated person both in skill and knowledge to be a doctor with the combined knowledge of an library. 

Outside her interest in the mortal world, her own personal skill that she proudly admits is that she has an impressive encyclopedic knowledge on about almost anything in general. More specific things will need more research and dedication to verify whether they are actual facts or simply nothing at all. Her interest in meddling around with the world has actually effect nations before when she given them tips to their enemies or a piece of knowledge that helped them advance, however she is only done this thrice which was when it was necessary. With her impressive amount of knowledge anything she generally likes to read and can remember anything with an acute accuracy, making her a very talented historian if it ever becomes needed. With her impressive mental forte she excels in the magical arts of many the many branches, however its obvious that she doesn't know all of them which have been kept hidden so well...</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Connections"" type=""button"">Connections [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Most of the relationships she has with other Ancients and Upstarts are mostly one-sided due to Yasuki's own curiosity, so she knows at least a little bit of infomation on all the ancients in Ceyr. However even then some of these facts about them are obvious or vague about them. With her own resources she often can dig deeper into the identities of other ancients with some difficulty depending of their power and threat that they present.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Ancients</span></span>
Danives: One of the gods that she is interested in, Yakushi is mostly intrigued by the fact that she often loses him due to his main power being able to turn invisible. Anything involved with him is interesting as it is enticing to see what incident will bring with him involved. The assassins that are the followers of Danives are no worries to her as she can overwhelm them with magic both by brute force and strategically as well. However its never bad to be cautious around him, so she usually remains discreet about her works about him. 

Agimar:
An ancient that she knows, who she knows that holds some power in the nations that his followers are in, most of them are people who are in high positions that allow him to manipulate a nation to some degree. While his powers not interesting in any way particular, she notes that his offensive abilities are something to watch out in a fight. Besides that he is not that interesting in many ways, however when she encounters one of his followers she does interfere whenever they are doing their little schemes. Outside messing with his followers she doesn't interact much with Agimar.

Hiraga:
Hiraga someone she notes to be a person of interest, Yakushi has known her for a long time and it isn't hard to know at least a little bit of the first spirit to live on Ceyr. She knows that Hiraga grants her followers the gift of reincarnation, however into different bodies which may be a good as well as bad thing depending on the scenario. Some of those forms that Yakushi knows her followers reincarnate into are  Dryads, Treants and similar creatures which helps aid Hiraga with the land. However outside generally knowledge about her, its best to not get in the way of her as she is an intimidating opponent if she ever becomes one. Rumors circulate about Hiraga's powers but she usually brushes them away til the proof shows up for her to verify them.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Upstarts</span></span>
Dust: ...Dust is an interesting individual that Yakushi is currently looking into, however she is definetely interested in him. A creature born from the death and destruction of a now barren land. A creature made from such a violent past is sure to be interesting and not to mention the inherited abilities that Dust earned from his creation. It is more or less a one sided interest from her and she silently watches him with tabs used to keep track of him.</div></div>

By being the one of its kind, Caliburn is a thing that people often do not see, as it is Yakushi's familiar as she is able to communicate to it and command it to do certain task.  The creature has its white coat with its noticeable ruby colored gem that it has on its forehead. Its two tails follow behind it as Caliburn is capable of using magic, of most of commonly used branches of magic, however only to the most basic degree. The only exception is that Caliburn is skilled with the use of light magic, both normal and holy as it is able to fend off the undead with some difficulty and can give minor blessings to people. These blessings are a form of holy magic that can also be put into the healing branch as they aften heal or improve the condition of people. With this in mind, if one who knew the creature and it's abilities one could say it could be distantly related to the unicorn or some other pure magical beast.</div></div>

I can take it out but it's there for aesthetics<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/cale-tucker"">@Cale Tucker</a></footer></blockquote>

I would prefer if you took it out or modified it, otherwise there is no issue with Neveras as he is a good character is accepted by me. I would rather not have firearms mixed with swords and bows, unless they're muskets. I should have mentioned this before, but Ceyr's technological level never left a magic-imbued early modern era.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Varavana, the Creature of Peace

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Upstart

<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span> Independent, Hero to Mortals

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality"" type=""button"">Personality [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 

Varavana brims with wisdom and compassion which belays his years as a child of the Golden One. He is greatly concerned with the fates of 'mortals', and in turn is incredibly eager when it comes to engaging with them - he has a problem turning down the opportunity to help someone in need, and may find himself being taken advantage of due to his naivete when it comes to mortal individuals and societies. He knows little, and cares little, for the affairs of gods but will not turn down the opportunity to talk with one of his siblings. This, however, may end up grating for the other individual, as he is rather...idealistic, to say the least.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Skills and Abilities"" type=""button"">Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills and Abilities:</span>

The physical being of Varavana is nothing more than an amorphous mass at the end of the day, 'preprogrammed' to replicate the shape and body non-spirit entities to a T. Oddly enough, Varavana may not 'copy' the appearance of any individual, appearing rather distinct no matter what creature he chooses to replicate. The current limitations on this ability lays in the size of the creature Varavana is attempting to shapeshift into, unable to become something like a fully sized dragon but easily capable of changing into a yeti or an ogre. For the most part, Varavana utilises this ability by mixing and matching, generally taking the appearance of a humanoid chimera of some description. His default 'mode' is something between a human and other mortal races with various other variables thrown in.

Varavana is highly empathic towards mortal races and creatures, radiating an unnatural charisma which, while not driving them to follow him on instinct, certainly makes it easier for him to talk with them. Non-sapient creatures rarely take issue with Varavana. Beyond his abilities as an Upstart, Varavana is exceptionally talented in agricultural matters, and knows how to get the most out of the land in any environment.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span>

Varavana is an entity born from the mud of the most fertile land on the three worlds, so the rather recent gossip goes. Another rumour claims that the young god is all that remains of a now dead, most-ancient solar deity, a perfect yet changing mass hatched from the old spirits corpse. Whatever the truth may be, Varavana could not say, for his memories are even younger than he is. 

His first memories are vague and feral, but over time become more clear - what he does know is that he spent his first years with no mortal interaction, only surrounded by animals, before he was come upon by a farmers son. Upon instinct he took the shape of the mortal boy, a human, and gained the mind of mortals. In the instant, he knew his name - Varavana - but that was all. He was taken in by the boys family, raised as one of their own.

It did not take too long for the parents to notice that while their birth son grew, Varavana remained the same. He too noticed this, coming to realise that his calling was elsewhere. He has since started travelling the world of Ceyr, and word has spread of him over the past twenty years, of the seemingly eternal youth who aids villages and towns in their time of need. He does not do this by direct intervention most of the time, but by helping the people help themselves, teaching ways to better live off the land and how to engage in healthy exchanges with local wildlife.

It is safe to say that where Varavana, the need for deities is reduced - if only somewhat -, something which few may not approve of...</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Connections"" type=""button"">Connections [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Connections:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Ancients</span> 
In Varavana's humble opinion, they are too steeped in their own antiquity. They are growing to be largely unnecessary, clinging to a past which they themselves lost. Not that he would ever let this view translate over to his interactions with them, that would be just rude.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hiraga:</span> She-Most-Ancient whom Varavana has an unending amount of respect for, despite their lack of interaction. However, respect and agreeing with are different matters. Varavana believes that mortals, much like the plants and air, are inherently part of the nature of the world, and she should concern herself in fostering and protecting them as much as the rest of the Ceyr. Varavana's approach is similar to Hiraga's, but he has mortals as the primary focus.

<span class=""bb-b"">Danives:</span> Varavana feels he should be opposed to the shadowy ancient, but cannot bring himself to be anything other than neutral towards him. His actions are never grevious, always slight - and his followers are too few in number to really call him a negative impact on Ceyr. As such, Varavana can only really offer a shrug.

<span class=""bb-b"">Voana:</span> Varavana has little to no knowledge of Voana, rarely interacting with warriors beyond stopping battles. From what he does know, it sounds like they would not get along.

<span class=""bb-b"">Agimar:</span> Varavana feels a slight hint of pity for the creator, but he cannot agree with what he would unleash upon the worlds, should he find a way to make his contraptions live. Were this to happen, Varavana would surely oppose Agimar's creations. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Upstarts</span>
The true brothers and sisters of Varavana, the 'new gods' as it were. He finds himself to be far more agreeable with them than any of the Ancients (minus maybe Yakushi).

<span class=""bb-b"">Dust:</span> Varavana likes the odd isolated spirit. Although he may not appreciate Varavana's optimism and conversational manner, the young upstart none the less appreciates any help he can get from Dust when traversing the wastes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Itone:</span> He views Voana's wife much in the same light.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gaon Latze:</span> What can Varavana say? Guy likes to fish. That's fine by him.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Religion:</span>

None. Has a small 'following' in the scholarly sense, keeping track of his movements. It is very likely that Varavana could find himself with a religion in a few years time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nation:</span>

N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Other:</span>
Among the youngest, yet one of the more well known, Upstarts. His habits of travelling and aiding others have launched him into popularity.</div>"

She doesn't care for mortals and upstarts on individual level, but same as if somebody wanted to burn down a forest, she would take issue with someone who would burn down a city, and jsut like she can't punish someone for falling one tree, she doesn't care for the assassins killing one person.

Yeah, and you disregarded rule number one too, but then again, it's rather hard to see since it's at the bottom of its post. So I don't fault you for it.

I like the dynamic between Myra and Vyra, and enjoyed reading their creation stories. I take issue, however, with the line stating that they have become more powerful since the death of the Golden One. Power provided by mortal worship is petty compared to the grossly incandescent essence given freely to Its children before the War in Heaven. But that's the only issue I have. Remove that, and you're golden and accepted.

Give me some time to wind down from a rather eventful day, and the IC should be up in a few hours or so.</div>"

If you have special requests, for example: you wish to betray everyone. This is fine, too. Only hit me up with a PM and we can arrange it within reason.

If Hiraga and Gaon Latze's players want to give their input too, please do. I've played off them a bit more than other characters:

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Shoshar, the Water Dragon

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> Ancient

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Pics within"" type=""button"">Pics within [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/FWiB4VI.jpg""/>
Shoshar's body is that of a finned serpent, always wet with a layer of water. He changes his size if he needs to fit into a compact space, but prefers the spectacle of a monstrous size to crush ships and intimidate mortals.</div></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Nature:</span> God

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality"" type=""button"">Personality [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Ever since he was created, Shoshar's heart has been encrusted with a painful frost. He is proud, petty, bitter, jealous, quick to anger, and holds eon-spanning grudges. Unfortunately for him, his pride makes him vulnerable to flattery and temptation as much as insult, leaving him manipulable, even for an ancient being. Despite his emotional and reactive nature, Shoshar is also committed to what he sets his mind to, no matter how angry it makes him. This can make Shoshar's retribution slow in some cases, but no less devastating.

Where Shoshar's personality is redeeming is his commitment to his sphere of influence; water. He is dutiful in nurturing the kingdoms of the deep and tossing vapour into the air to feed the rivers and wetlands of the world as if bound by an ultimate contract. Even the gravest of insults cannot stray him from such tasks.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Skills and Abilities"" type=""button"">Skills and Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">As his name suggests, Shoshar holds a degree of power over all water, whether it be in the ground or the air, but is fearful to separate from it at all due to the heat of Aun thawing and killing him. In this, he can control the way water flows to affect tides, current, as well as temperature and physical state. In the local sense, he can control water to the point of making liquid water flow in flying eddies and streams through the air and to use it as a means of transport. If he is out of the water, he is fond of getting around by flying through the air encased in a layer of water to keep his icy body cool. It is said that the clouds in the sky are created in the wake of Shoshar meandering through the skies either as part of his duties to toss water over Ceyr.

His scope of power makes him a force to be reckoned with if one is near the ocean, a large lake or a river, though his emotional nature limits his potential for conquest. The only territory he claims fully is that of the seas. Even though he commands rainfall, he cannot preside over the sky or the land.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">It is said that Shoshar was born of the coldest parts of Ceyr's oceans. His body was initially wrought of ice, but changed to flesh as he consumed the creatures of the seas and rivers. The ice lives on as part of his being, however, keeping him from leaving the water for fear of melting. The Golden One gave him company in the form of more sea creatures, complimented by a reclusive underwater sentient race of cephalopods, the Reods. Most of these creatures are scarcely seen by other races unless they are fished. With the power bestowed upon him, Shoshar nurtured all of these creatures as his only friends. Few if any other spirits would suffer the cold, crushing depths that made up his home, so a loneliness hangs about him, perpetuated by his insufferable personality.

When the Golden One suddenly cut itself off from all the spirits, Shoshar feared that he could not protect his realm of the sea any longer. He was thrown into a fit of paranoia and took to the War in Heaven as a wildcard, viciously defending his holdings. His madness grew to the point where destruction would be wrought upon the lands in the form of floods, massive tides, cyclones, and tsunamis. This was partly out of fear for the safety of his own domain and partly out of jealousy for those who could walk freely upon land without the gaze of Aun threatening their existence. He fought for both sides at different times, a victim of trickery and manipulation. However, his ideals remained with protecting his realm, not to allegiance to the Golden One or ambition to harvest what was left of its power.

All that is known of what became of Shoshar after the Golden One's death is that the seas suddenly calmed. There were no more storms, no rain, even. A worldwide drought stood for a full year. Shoshar had frozen himself to the bottom of the ocean, having expended his rage and shut down. He took the time to ponder, he perhaps spoke to spirits who sought him out. Whatever conclusions he came to while slumbering for a year have been kept a closely guarded secret, one of many that he keeps. As he returned gradually, his madness had been levelled. He was balanced in his approach to those on land, no longer terrorising them out of his own fear.

The ice around Shoshar's heart has mostly remained intact up until this point, retaining his personality and perpetuating loneliness. He has connections to other spirits, but right now he is mostly concerned with his duties and has little patience for anyone. News of the Golden One returning is something that he has deemed as being in his interests to hear about, but he is wary of trickery after being manipulated in the war for so long. Not that there is much he has done about his flaws that allowed such manipulations.</div></div>

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Ancients"" type=""button"">Ancients [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">ANCIENTS:</span></span></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Hiraga:</span>
Being that nature and water are spheres intertwined and overlapping in many ways, so too are Hiraga and Shoshar. Of all the ancients, Hiraga is perhaps the only one who can placate Shoshar with a stern word. Hiraga holds some kind of control over Shoshar that keeps him from acting against her. The exact nature of this control is yet another secret that Shoshar keeps to himself, but it has halted Shoshar's retribution on many occasions. Shoshar's reaction to Hiraga's presence and influence appears to be begrudging, bound by an agreement signed ages ago.

<span class=""bb-i"">Danives:</span> (If Vilhelm changes his mind)
As the depths of the ocean are a realm steeped in shadows, Danives is sometimes seen slinking through in the presence of Shoshar, shaping various creatures without permission. The shadow god's tricks and games rapidly grate on Shoshar's patience, no doubt providing Danives with no end to fun. After at least a century of being the butt of Danives' jokes for the sake of goading a reaction, Shoshar has taken to the habit of merely grumbling and trying to ignore the ancient.

<span class=""bb-i"">Voana:</span>
Shoshar and Voana have the same understanding as any general and the sea. Shoshar's realm is often used as a platform to defend and attack, but it is not a territory that can be held. She has not been miserly in her offerings to him for permission for safe passage on ships, and has thus not invoked his wrath. Such is the extent of Shoshar's interests in mortal conflicts.

<span class=""bb-i"">Sohena:</span>
Sohena and Shoshar have barely even been introduced. Her presence always garners anxiety in Shoshar, her natural serenity unnerving. No doubt Sohena herself is not the kind to socialise with a wrathful god of water.

<span class=""bb-i"">Agimar:</span>
Agimar was responsible for manipulating Shoshar to unwittingly carry out his agenda on a couple of occasions. Shoshar himself is uninterested in his work and tends not to socialise with him. Agimar himself has never directly offended Shoshar, as his scheming was never revealed where Shoshar was involved.

<span class=""bb-i"">Yakushi:</span>
If there was ever a more annoying, relentless, and never ending torment for Shoshar's patience, it is the incessant inquiries of Yakushi. Being proud of his realm, Shoshar initially satisfied much of Yakushi's curiosity about the oceans, wary to keep important secrets to himself. Unfortunately, her hunger for knowledge was insatiable and Shoshar began to cast her away in impatience. Yakushi's questions did not stop, however. She kept coming back and attempting to pick Shoshar's brains further. Thankfully her mercurial attention cuts her questions short after a while. Despite the annoyance of her presence, Shoshar secretly regards Yakushi with an odd fondness, perhaps for relieving his loneliness at times. It is probably why he does not feel justified in attacking her for her insolence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Neveras:</span>
Shoshar and Neveras are not on good terms. In protection of mortals during various conflicts, Shoshar and Neveras did battle in an attempt to turn Shoshar's wrath aside. Neveras generally won, making their relationship adversarial. Shoshar had a say in detaining Neveras during the War in Heaven, but at a point during the following years, knowledge of the seal enchantment was taken from him by Hiraga under circumstances that Shoshar, again, keeps a secret.

<span class=""bb-i"">Myra:</span>
Shoshar is jealous of the joy spread by Myra's open and warm heart. This makes interactions with her curt on Shoshar's part. Shoshar can barely stand her presence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Vyra:</span>
While Myra would barely have the opportunity to interact with Shoshar due to his view of her, Vyra, her twin, actively seeks Shoshar out when it suits her to have an the Water Dragon on his side. Shoshar may or may not be aware of how hollow her interactions with him are, but she is deceitful enough to charm the sea serpent until he is wrapped around her little finger like a ring. In that sense, Shoshar is a victim of Vyra's machinations when others are not there to talk some sense into him.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Upstarts"" type=""button"">Upstarts [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">UPSTARTS:</span></span></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Varavana:</span>
Some mortal legend. They have never personally met. Shoshar has little interest in changing that himself.

<span class=""bb-i"">Dust:</span>
Dust's influence is barely apparent wherever Shoshar is present. The water dragon is not even aware of his existence.

<span class=""bb-i"">Itone:</span>
Shoshar is actually unaware that Voana is even married, much less that this Itone, an upstart, is her partner. Having never known true love or marriage beyond watching mortals making cold plans and arrangements to continue bloodlines, Shoshar is bound to be confused by their unorthodox pairing of sexes.

<span class=""bb-i"">Gaon Latze:</span>
Shoshar has never shared his version of the story of Gaon Latze's ascent to power, even to Gaon Latze himself. The encounter with the now upstart obviously had a profound impact on Shoshar's view of mortals, enough to make him spare the child's life. However, after the fact, he has had little interaction with the upstart. The most popular legend for the reason of Shoshar's gift to Gaon Latze is that the fisherman's conviction resonated with Shoshar's own, causing the god's heart to partially thaw for a moment.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Religion"" type=""button"">Religion [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Many seafaring nations have temples to Shoshar in each of their cities. He is seen as the true sovereign of the sea and the storms, and they pay their respects to him. In order to secure a save voyage across a body of water, Shoshar must be appeased by a fruit of the land that he cannot reach himself. This can be an animal or a plant sacrifice. Failure to make a sacrifice puts a ship or a coastal or river city at risk of facing Shoshar's anger.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Nation"" type=""button"">Nation [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Shoshar's influence is widespread enough, but his true nation is made up of hidden kingdoms under the sea that few enough mortals are aware of. A community of intelligent, cephalopod-like humanoids known as the Reods tend to their underwater agriculture in peace and harmony under Shoshar's watchful eye. The only connection, if any, which they have with the land is the occasional Reod druid of Hiraga among them to aid in nurturing nature in seas. They are a reclusive and secretive people, avoiding conflict and contact with surface dwellers, but their generosity and kindness far surpasses their patron's in most cases.</div></div></div>"

I thought that coffee cup looked familiar. Hello again!

Hiraga's connection with Shoshar is open ended enough that it doesn't have to be based on direct control. With Hiraga's personality, I was actually leaning more towards Shoshar owing her a massive debt of some kind. It could be developed more if it becomes more relevant.</div>"

But here's the problem, he's unpredictable because they could mix. He could become hysterical and senselessly murder. Hell, he could become anything. How would you feel spending centuries inside a cold, dark pitch-black void, being chained and held down to a non-existent floor? He just snapped, is all.

While it may seem more than just beneficial to lock him away in that cage... they should have made sure to keep him there. Because now the deed is done, and he's out.</div>"

Name: Praeth, Aficionado of the Mortal Realm

Age: Ancient

Appearance: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/ZRdIr7x.jpg""/>
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/ayUAPC7.jpg?2""/>

Nature: Independent

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality"" type=""button"">Personality [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">: Somber, imperturbable, and the altruist of soft humor, Praeth has the temperament of an old man, despite maintaining the vigor of an adolescent. Praeth conducts his posture carefully depending on his situation, able to became a feeble coward, a towering commander, or no different from the man beside him, should he desire.  Praeth continually searches for new experiences, anywhere from simply working under an old fisherman to creating and empire of wealth to enacting the plotting of a politician to leading a nation of men into greatness, or back into groveling poverty. Praeth has a strong awe for the world, and spends most of his time travelling to experience the world’s beauty, every facet of every corner known to god or man.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Abilities"" type=""button"">Abilities [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Having lived a thousand lives wandering amongst mortals, Praeth is beyond charismatic and able to read just about any human, as if looking directly into their mind; allowing him to reach out to anyone and anything fairly easily.

Physically, Praeth is considered ridiculously powerful in the mortal realm, but in comparison to many gods, his strength would amount to that of a child. Accordingly, Praeth must rely on skill alone in fighting other gods. Inventing and experimenting with numerous techniques and methods similar to eastern style fighting. In the end, Praeth is the master of technique and precision, but his speed, endurance, and strength are a great enough handicap that he’d be hard pressed in any fight against any remotely formidable spirit, much less a notable ancient.

From the beginning, Praeth obsessively collected experience in every action and lifestyle belonging to the material world, he journeyed to the ends of existence and meddled in every aspect of mortal life. In any and all practical skill, Praeth can be considered an artisan, from cooking to medicines, he is skilled and reliable.

Praeth has isolated his existence from both mortal and spirit, thus, even his existence among the gods is widely questioned. Praeth has never gone by the same name in the mortal world for any two lives, and though the alias may be famed, he himself, is an unknown entity to the mortal realm. Thus he has no power fluctuation, nothing his strength is bound to. Likewise, he is incredibly weak for a spirit.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">From the beginning of his existence only shortly after the original ancients, Praeth attempted the existence of a mortal; leading the mortals to discovery of many methods of survival, agriculture, and eventually, advanced civilization. He was the monolith of growth for the mortal races, and at first, Praeth was enthralled with becoming an idol to the mortal realm, his brash arrogance and pride brought other gods to dislike him and his direct meddling with mortals. Eventually, Praeth was banished, disappearing from existence for eras before returning hollowed and haggard.

Rejected and forgotten by his brothers and sisters, Praeth remained among the humans, living and dying thousands of lives, wandering the awe-inspiring world. Over time, Praeth came to be content with his existence: having loved hundreds of times, experienced the loss of a thousand lovers, having served thousands, having thousands serve him, having begged for food, having supplied food to beggars, carnal desires, purity, kindness, hate, the aspects of the world went on endlessly.

Praeth slowly grew, not only in indifference but passion for the world as it was. Each and every part of the world required his attention, and in the end formed a gorgeous puzzle of intricate beauty and content. For Praeth, the bitter cold was just as attractive as the brisk warmth of spring, he worshipped creation and came to love it. In this sense, Praeth soon came to love mortals as well, each story interesting him, each life a precious gem. With hundreds upon thousands of years amongst the mortals, Praeth was able to ease his way into any one mortals life, his empathy grew as well as his skill in dealing with people.

Praeth’s brash, young personality slowly ebbed away, giving way to a more laid back and soft attitude. Like a stone being polished, he slowly became silk-like in nature, his pale eyes lost their piercing vigor and gained a calming feature, his enigmatic smile becoming softer and more kindly. He would not be recognized by the spirits that had banished him and he holds no bitterness towards them.

When the golden orb abandoned the spirits, Praeth failed to take up arms, believing himself incapable of aiding such a cause. When the golden orb was destroyed, Praeth mourned as the mortals were massacred, engulfed in sorrow, he aimlessly wandered amongst the surviving mortals. Praeth began to aid in mending Ceyr, giving mortals a nudge in one direction or another to rebuild an even more gorgeous world.</div></div>

Connections:
Praeth was able to discern little, staring at the stars from his mortal standing, and his existence is practically forgotten or of no circumstance to spirits as he mingles purely with mortals  

Religion: None whatsoever, he is unknown to mortals and most spirits 

Nation: Any and all nations he has led and served</div>"

Generally speaking, the more an ancient relies on pure power, the stronger Praeth is. His main shortcoming is the fact that his skills lose prowess and precision as his fatigue grows, naturally finesse is trumped by exhaustion. Thus, Praeth has a poor affinity for multiple consecutive battles, long-lasting fights of pace, and any fight taking place after a tiring physical excursion.

Name: Vires Decius
Race: Turian
Position: Captain 

Appearance: 6'2, approx. 230 lbs, blue eyes. Vires has a long slash across his forehead, as well as numerous whip scares on his back. Vires' colony tattoo consists of white paint that looks like <a href=""http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2010/206/f/f/Mass_Effect_Turian_Model_by_u3190.jpg"">this.</a>

Allegiance: Turian Blackwatch (22nd Lightning Psychos)

Abilities: None  

Bio: Vires was born on the planet Invictus, in the Caestus systems, located in the Minos Wasteland quadrant of the Milky Way galaxy. Vires father was a career military man, who, at Vires birth, was a high ranking general charged with the defense of the Minos Wasteland colonies, alongside a handful of admirals and generals. Because of his father's status, Vires was expected to grow up to be of equal importance. While most would consider it a daunting task to live in the shadow of a military giant, Vires took it upon himself to live up to those expectations. At a young age, Vires' mother, Taeya, enlisted the greatest personal teachers for Vires, to give him the best chance at success. The greatest scholars, mathematicians and historians worked with Vires all day, for seven days a (human) week, to give him the knowledge he would require <span class=""bb-i"">to grow up and be somebody.</span>

As soon as he was physically able, Vires began training in the use of firearms with the local frontiersmen. When it was apparent that Vires had learned all he could from non-military firearms experts, General Decius had an ex-training sergeant hired and sent to his family on the Invictus colony. This man, Cassus, became Vires's inspiration. Cassus was able to bring Vires training regime to new heights, not only teaching him how to properly use firearms but also hand to hand martial arts, knife fighting, and the use of explosives. While most species would not allow such extremes to be taken when preparing a non-adult, the Turians couldn't care less: in fact, such devotion was expected. The children of greats were expected to be great as well. Vires, while excelling in his training, was considered a socially awkward introvert. He had very little informal contact with anyone outside of his family gene. This inadvertently led to Vires no longer relying on interaction with other sentient beings, a skill pivotal for the special operations soldier he was to become.

The birthday Vires was old enough to enlist, his gift consisted of being transported to the recruitment office as soon as it opened. He signed up as a marine, and after a tear-less goodbye to his mother, was off to boot camp. For most Turians, boot camp is a grueling, torturous thing that most despise the moment they arrive. But not Turians like Vires. Turians who had lived their whole lives to prove that they were as good as their parents. Boot camp was just another chance to improve, nothing more. Vires met his lifelong friends at boot camp, in fact. The ten of them would become the original 22nd Lightning Psychos. At graduation, the temporary squads that had been established during training were given their official names and assigned to their posts. The 22nd found itself serving onboard a Turian cruiser on the edge of Terminus space, where they protected major trading posts and trade lanes from pirates. Vires saw considerable action during his four tours of duty aboard this cruiser, and this is where the majority of his squad's recommendations for Blackwatch status came from.

The nail on the head, however, was when the cruiser crash landed on a planet in the Faryar system, located in the Hourglass Nebula. Most of the crew died on impact, including one member of the Lightning Psychos. While the Turians awaited rescue, the Lightning Psychos led the defense of the makeshift Turian camp, alongside one other surviving combat squad. Numerous attacks from a pirate base on a nearby moon failed to penetrate the defenses manned by the Psychos, and Vires himself claimed hundreds of kills during the months of near constant attacks. Vires later learned that the pirates were after the cruiser's secret cargo of experimental weapons of mass destruction. When the squad was rescued, only seven had survived. Those seven were bestowed the highest honors, and their squad was given the chance to train further and become a special operations Blackwatch squad. They accepted.

For the past twelve years, Vires has served alongside the 22nd Lightning Psychos in the most dangerous missions Blackwatch has ever sent their teams on. Vires has watched countless men die, and only he and two other of the original Lightning Psychos remain. This has earned the three of them the nickname 'The Immortal Trio.' Some of the more religious members of the Lightning Psychos believe their unit's spirit has some special plan for the three warriors. In recent years, two years ago, percisely, Vires became the squad's leader. He leads them with the discipline and honor expected of a Turian; yet Vires is not satisfied. He will never be satisfied with being a mere soldier. Vires still dreams of becoming a general, much like his aging father.

Gear: 

Firearms - Phaeston assault rifle; Krysae anti-material sniper rifle; M-6 Carnifex Hand Cannon
Explosives - ML-77 Missile Launcher; Flashbangs; Inferno grenades; high explosive grenades; proximity mines
Other - Makhaira knife; Omni-tool
Armor - Light Crisis/Hazard Armor Mk X
Vehicles - Turian Corvette 'Relentless' acts as Decius' Blackwarch squad's transport and combat vehicle. Small, maneuverable, capable of carrying a crew of ten.</div>"

Race:Human  
Position:Imperial guard Storm Trooper member of the 122nd ""Stormbringers"" and a low ranked stormtrooper in the 3rd stormtrooper Regiment.

Allegiance: 122nd Stormbringers 

Abilities: Elyias has a recessive pariah gene meaning he is what the Imperium call ""Blanks"" they are people with no presence in the warp and so they aren't effected by psykers people in the general vicinity of a blank also aren't effected by psychic powers, unlike people with a dominant pariah gene ""Blanks"" aura of otherness isn't as strong so they aren't generally killed off at birth, but it's strong enough for people to feel unnerved around him and see him as somebody who is truly odd but otherwise leave him alone. Elyias was lucky enough to make it this far with the pariah gene and even luckier that an inquisitor saw no use in him. For psykers being in the same general vicinity of Elyias is more uncomfortable than non-psykers. 

Bio:Elyias' homeworld was a polluted hiveworld called Thebes, it was so polluted that it often rained acid and the surface of what little water was left on the planet was covered in a layer of toxic sludge, during the Horus Hersey the imperial army group ""The Breakers"" turned traitor (due to their attachment to a space marine chapter that went traitor) and joined with the forces of chaos. For a majority of the war the Breakers controlled the planet with an iron fist, with only a few regiments actually going out and fighting on the frontlines. Eventually as the war turned in the favor of the Imperium thebes fell under siege and brutal fighting ensued it was during this the first of what would eventually be the ""Stormbringers"" fough with the imperium at the moment they were a group of resistance fighters who aided imperial forces in retaking the planet.

With that done, the resistance fighters who aided the Imperium were the first to join the newly formed Imperial guard they declared themselves ""The Stormbringers"" They were fanatical to the emperor even without the commissars at their backs. Like the Breakers before them the early days of the Stormbringers prided themselves on their ability to lay siege to fortifications with massive amounts of artillery. (And still to this day there are two or three artillery regiments within the group.) But things changed when their enemy changed, they didn't experience much trouble from heretics or xenos with the exception of the Dark Eldar, who often raided Thebes and her moons for slaves and prisoners. The Stormbringers were ill-prepared for a fast attacking enemy that could shrink into the shadows before they could even prepare their guns, so under the command of Commander Galanos they changed their tactics instead relying heavily upon fast attack vehicles like sentinels and dropping in with Valkyries, this single handily brought the dark Eldar under heel and kicked them out of the system.

Shortly after their victories after the Dark Eldar the Stormbringers achieved the notice of a group of Adeptas Sororitas, named ""The soldiers of the Golden throne."" This group of sisters invoked their rights over the Stormbringers and brought them into battle against the enemies of the Imperium once again.

It was during this time that the future stormtrooper named Elyias was born. The pariah gene was passed onto him by his mother and was made recessive so he was born with that aura of ""Otherness"" like his mother but it wasn't as strong as someone with a dominant gene. So the doctors just shrugged off that fact and gave the child back to his mother.

As Elyias grew up he knew he was different from the others who didn't want to play with the. ""Weird kid."" But he was unaware of his pariah gene, he just thought it was something else. In his teenage years Elyias grew up watching the parades of Stormbringers before they set off into battle. He saw them as heroes and saw the fact that no matter what they weren't ignored or bullied. So when he grew older he joined them, his aura was so wrong to the recruiter that he assigned Elyias to general infantry and shipped him off.

Elyias' first battle scarred him, it was a battle against a ork Waagh that was attacking a nearby system. The battle was so intense that it lasted months, and by the end of it the blood of Elyias' comrades had soaked into his boots and the trench system he fought in had a permanent puddle of blood about 2 inches deep. But eventually the battle ended in an imperial victory and Elyias lived to die another day. Elyias' second engagement was more brutal than the first. It was here where he tasted his first action against the heretical forces of chaos, it was here where the breakers, the Stormbringers predecessors, fought those who took their place. And nothing prepared them for the macabre group of traitors wearing skulls and other things on their armor and vehicles. But still with almost an insane amount of fervor the group fought and eventually proved themselves better, Elyias even went above and beyond getting on a heavy bolter and mowing down at least 40 traitors before running out of ammo. This gained him recognition and even though they didn't want to they brought Elyias into the ranks of The Stormtroopers.

Allegiance:1523rd Ferian ""Psycho drivers"" penal legion
Abilities:None

Bio:Domenico was not born on Feria. Virtually no one in the Psycho drivers was born on Feria, nearly 100% of the regiment was born and raised on Feria's huge moon, Carceri. Feria is an industrial world possessed of such great mineral wealth that the entire world is one, great factory in which all but the richest citizens toil, making only two products, chimera armored transports and a cheap style of the m36 lasgun. However, unlike world's such as Armageddon there is very little quality control, commonly only 30% of chimera forged by tithe collection are actually suitable for the guard, this however is made up for by the sheer quantity of chimera's made (30% is approximately 2 billion chimera armored transports) many of the non collected chimera's are scrapped and reforged. However, a large number are kept, as the tithe of chimera is often supplemented with a second resource, warm bodies. When Feria was founded, the huge industrial complex suffered from literally millions of worker uprisings due to the awful conditions. The world's solution? Turn there moon (almost as large as Feria) into a giant prison complex for dissidents. Upon its completion the grand prison was able to hold approximately 12 billion prisoners, it exceeded this amount within less than a century. However, the far worse conditions on Carceri have dramatically dropped crime on Feria by 94%. Carceri became the ultimate scum hole of gangers, murderers, thieves and every other type of scum in existence.This is from where all Ferian regiments are recruited. Domenico was born and raised on Carceri, cell block T. From day one he had a spark, he was born with the umbilical cord around his neck, and he bit through it to survive. As the boy grew he drew quite a few others to him. These children would follow Domenico anywhere, he commanded there respect through his magnetism and schemes from a young age. Upon becoming teenagers Domenico officially formed them into a gang, the Psycho wheels. They were a biker gang (after they stole, scavenged, and repaired enough bikes) who were feared in there cellblock. As they branched out they came into contact with many other gangs. Sometimes Domenico assimilated them into the psychos, but mostly they engaged in brutal gang warfare. Everything from fast paced bike on bike death races to slow, grueling gurreila warfare from block to block. Into adulthood Domenico led his gang through hell again and again, and he always ended up on top. Not long after his 20th birthday, Domenico and his entire gang, along with thousands of others were drafted into the 1523rd Ferian penal legion.

As the penal legion traveled for awhile they fought in a number of theatres, none of which made any real impact, until Meritan primus. A hive world with thousands of hives connected by one huge highway system, Meritan primus had been besieged by ork Waaaagh! Flamewheel, an entire Waaaagh! of ork speedfreaks. They had effortlessly repelled every attempt to even effectively engage them, then the 1523rd landed. They were decimated due to their chimera's inability to keep speed with the speedfreaks supercharged bikes and truks. Once they were about to half their initial strength, Domenico made his move. He, his gang, and a vast majority of the regiment turned on their leadership and savagely killed them. Before disorder could brake Domenico seized control. He then ordered all remaining chimera's brought to him and his gang. Using tools and skills earned as a biker gang back on Carceri, Domenico and his gang field stripped all the remaining chimera's in less than 5 hours. They then replaced the treads with large, sturdy grip wheels, supercharged their engines and vastly improved their speed and maneuverability. When the sun rose the irks met not the slow tread carriers they had known previously, but large chimera ""Super trucks"" (as dubbed by Domenico) that could easily keep, and even outpace anything they had. Within a year the Waaaagh! was crushed, and Domenico was officially named commander of the regiment. They received a huge reinforcement of chimera's and men from Feria and Carceri respectively. After doing what had been done to every other chimera and making sure everyman in his regiment could maintain their chimera the legion was again shipped out, to a recently rediscovered forge world.

<div class=""bb-h2"">#R4100273T Aelric Tancred
Colonel, 133rd Krieg Tank Regiment</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span> Human

<span class=""bb-b"">Position:</span> Imperial Guard Officer

<span class=""bb-b"">Allegiance:</span> 133rd Krieg Tank Regiment

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">In Death, Atonement:</span></span> Aelric is from Krieg, and thusly shares this detached and grim outlook along with those who come from the scarred world. He has memorized the litanies about how there is nothing but shame in life even as a boy, repeated as they were ad nauseam during bayonet drill. Indeed, there is no boasting when it is said that Aelric is fearless, because it is a simple fact for most, if not all members of the Death Korps.

     <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Backbone of the Guard:</span></span> Aelric's service has revolved around the Leman Russ and other armored vehicles, and his skills regarding them and the tactics suited for such vehicles are elite. From sponson gunner, to main gunner, to tank commander, to platoon commander, then company, battalion, and finally regiment commander, he is a very competent armored warfare tactician. 

     <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">As it was Done by the Ancients:</span></span> Aelric attended war college after being recommended by Lord General Guiscard of the 4,229th Army for a higher command. Getting perfect marks in almost every test, he has seen through the limitations of words from the ancient tactics tomes written by the ancients, and his effective application of this knowledge on the battlefield is something to behold.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""For the Emperor, we go ever onwards.""</span>

Aelric was born amongst untold billions, yet he was one of the few who would become stars that decided the fate of many. Granted, his was a star that would not burn for long, but it was a star nonetheless.

His story began on Krieg, born naturally to a mother and father who, by luck or by the Emperor's hand, were not drafted into the service, as the former was sub-administrator for one of the Vitae Womb facilities, and the latter was the foreman of a munitions factory. They raised him well - from a Kriegan's point of view. For when he cried as a baby, Aelric's mother would hold him close, and her words of comfort spoke of peace and atonement beyond Death's gate. And when the drillmaster punished him for misbehavior during afternoon bayonet drill, his father added a second beating when he came home. Aelric henceforth knew nothing but a future full of war, and the death it promised which would bring peace to his soul.

So it was, that after reaching 18 years of age and the Kriegan Administratum deeming his destiny not in the arcane technomancy of the Vitae Womb plants or the intense labour of the munitions factories, that he was thrilled to be one of those who would form the 128th Krieg Tank Regiment. His friends and family congratulated and cheered him on as he went up the ramp and into the maw of the transport ship that would take him to the stars, that he could enter that promised world of strife and death, of blood and iron, as a sponson heavy bolter gunner for one of his regiment's venerable Leman Russes, one named <span class=""bb-i"">Mericful Justice</span>.

Viscar, Yngriff, Gloria Secundus - three worlds, nine campaigns. On the first two, he fought the dreaded Orks, felling a great many of the xenos with his heavy bolter, most of his rounds striking true and killing in just one or two hits. Junior Lieutenant Hoffman, commander of his tank, praised him particularly for downing a squad of Tankbustas before they could accurately let loose their rockets, which would surely have brought much hurt had they struck. But there were times when disasters were well and truly out of Aelric's power to prevent, and he still remembers well how Sergeant Goldstein's voice screamed for an instant before falling deathly silent on the intercom from a penetrating hit to the side of the turret by a beamy deffgun.

But he did not mourn for his comrade's violent passing. Rather, he welcomed it, and wished his soul well as Goldstein began his pilgrimage beyond death to the Emperor's Palace, where all those who fought and died for the God-Emperor would be welcomed with open arms and know peace. He received gunnery retraining for the standard Leman Russ battle cannon to replace Goldstein while his regiment was put in reserve to resupply, reorganize and reinforce after receiving horrible casualties during the failed push towards the Varangian Mountain Range, where heavy artillery and gargants temporarily halted the advance of the penitent. It was about two months into the Grand Campaign for Viscar, and Aelric kept this position as main gun operator beyond the massive plains of Viscar and the icy tundras of Yngriff.

But it was on the Hive World of Gloria Secundus where he would first assume his own command. His regiment had been stationed there to discourage any uprising by Tau sympathizers, but they were met with a devastating stab in the back as the local PDF was part of the xenos conspiracy and fired upon their own comrades-in-arms. As it is written in the ancient texts, the armored nature of the 128th Tank Regiment predictably performed poorly in the brutal urban warfare of the Hives, as such was the domain of infantry. Losses were high as lascannons, missile launchers and railguns seemingly lurked behind every high window. When relief came and his regiment was once more put into reserve to reorganize and reinforce, Aelric found himself receiving a battlefield commission from Sergeant to Junior Lieutenant in order to replace Hoffman as tank commander for the <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span> as Hoffman himself got a promotion that elevated him to platoon commander. The 128th, crippled to near-death early during the Grand Campaign for the planet, could fight only in the later stages of the conflict, during which Hoffman's platoon of four Leman Russes, of which the <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span> was part of, proved itself able under new leadership, destroying many Tau battlesuits and local-pattern AFV's manned by the traitor PDF.

Viscar, Yngriff and Gloria Secundus saw Aelric go from a lowly enlisted crewman to a respected tank commander and officer, but Tartar and Dymphna's Damnation would elevate his status further. <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span>, by this point, had a prestigious kill tally sporting a quite a number and variety of foes: from Ork stompaz and dreads, Tau battlesuits and hover-tanks, to the crude self-propelled guns of the traitor Gloria Secundus PDF. However, its outward appearance was undecorated, and its crew, even veteran Aelric, wore the same uniforms as each other without any ornamentation. This is because of the Death Korps mentality of brutal humility, a philosophy of shame unique to Krieg and its people that dictates aggrandizement or praise of oneself as not only vain but a sin.

In any case, the desert mining world of Tartar introduced to him new alien races to fight: the Eldar and the Necrons, from both of which he took lives (or unlives, for the latter's case). Elements from WAAAGH! Skullkrakka had landed on the world and intended to utilize the powerful mining engines of the Adeptus Mechanicus to further bolster their crude horde. Hoffman's platoon of the standard-pattern Leman Russes <span class=""bb-i"">Holy Ghost</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span>, <span class=""bb-i"">Xenos' Doom</span> and <span class=""bb-i"">Unbiased Judgment</span> were first into the fray, felling scores of Orks every heartbeat with sponson-mounted heavy bolters and the deadly high-explosive ordnance delivered by their battle cannons. Indeed, the first thrusts against the Ork horde drew much blood, but the WAAAGH! began to hold as reinforcements arrived from their crude ships hurling roks onto the planet's surface, even during the naval battle that made spectacular lightshows that one night as blossoming explosions violated the sea of stars when ships tore each other into junk and debris.

Thus, Tartar became a war of attrition, and for many weeks, Aelric followed Hoffman as the front line shifted ever so slightly with each passing hour and day. What broke this grinding stalemate was the emergence of the Necrons, who wreaked havoc on both sides. When a flash of green light killed Sergeant Tyran, the <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice's</span> main gunner, Aelric had to descend from the cupola to man the battle cannon and personally destroy, ironically, the Necron Destroyer that had unleashed the blast. Indeed, the new foe had come with great furor, and Hoffman's platoon saw the loss of the <span class=""bb-i"">Holy Ghost</span>, whose crew went up in flames along with it.

Making matters more complicated than what was tolerable was the equally sudden appearance of the Eldar of Craftworld Biel-tan. Though this race of witches and pirates focused primarily on the Necron threat, they were unrelenting in their attacks against the Imperial Guard. Hoffman's platoon, reduced to 75% of its main strength, lost a quarter more when a Falcon Grav Tank speared a brightlance through the promethium tanks of the <span class=""bb-i"">Xenos' Doom</span>. However, there was swift retribution as the <span class=""bb-i"">Unbiased Judgment</span>, Hoffman's tank, mirrored the Falcon and destroyed it with a lascannon beam guided by the hand of the Emperor.

Hoffman's battered platoon was forced to retreat to battalion HQ when the planetary order to evacuate the planet forthwith was sounded. Inquisitorial agents working parallel to Astra Militarum forces whispered of a daemonic artifact of Tzeentchian origin sealed there on the planet during the Horus Heresy. Considering all at hand, Imperial High Command decided that backwater desert mining world was not worth the effort of prolonged total war, and that it would burn to deny the foes of the His Majesty's Imperium the chance to use its facilities against them. Therefore, Imperial ground forces ascended to the starships orbiting the planet; and at the same time, the Eldar withdrew, vanishing as quickly as they appeared. Ork hordes met the undead legions of the Necrons as they were vomited out forth from obsidian gates. Then the death warrant of Tartar was signed by the local Lord General and Inquisitor, and Aelric, nursing his bloodied, bandaged arm, watched from the energy-shielded hangar of an Imperial Cruiser as Tartar was torn apart by the mighty guns of the Imperial Navy.

He had been fighting for twelve years now. Twelve bloody years of traveling to distant stars, stars he wasn't familiar to, and slaying the foes of the Emperor. He hadn't died yet, and he decided that it was because the God-Emperor, praise be His Name, had a plan for him. Thus it was with this unwavering fatalism that he entered the Grand Campaign for Dymphna's Damnation, already well underway before he had arrived, and making a fiery maelstrom of carnage of the Hateful Goliaths' Chapter Homeworld. The Space Marines native there were experiencing a schism: half of their chapter had fallen to Chaos, while the other half stayed loyal. A feudal world of forests and hills, it was quickly blackened when traitor Librarians opened up warp portals, using the souls of their captured loyalist battle-brothers as power sources for the ritual. Stepping out forth from the foul tears in reality were none other than the hatred World Bearers, lead by a Daemon Prince named Rabindranath.

To say that it was awful is an understatement. How many men can say that they fought, slept, ate and lived on a world whose clouds were black as soot and rained blood, where the sky was a malevolent red and the enemy was seemingly inexhaustible? Three chapters of Adeptus Astartes devoted entire companies to the defense of Dymphna's Damnation, and dozens of Imperial Guard regiments dug in and held the line. Two orders militant of the Adepta Sororitas gave their aid, and there was a rare sight in that a cohort of Legio Cybernetica from a nearby forge world also made landfall on the planet.

The Death Korps of Krieg proved itself admirably against the Chaos Space Marines as they either held resolutely or died standing honorably. The 128th found itself once again at death's door as it was withered hour by hour, day by day, by warp energies or conventional weapons from either cultist slave gangs or their traitor astartes masters. Hoffman met his end screaming praises to the Emperor as a bloodletter drove its daemonblade through the top of <span class=""bb-i"">Unbiased Judgment's</span> turret, cleaving apart his head, and it was only a heartbeat too late that one of <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice's</span> sponson-mounted heavy bolters gored the daemon to banishment. To fill the void of command, Aelric was hastily promoted to First Lieutenant and made to replace Hoffman.

He lead his new charges as ably as Hoffman did. Joining the Rhinos and Predators of the Star Giants and Vengeful Angels chapters of space marines, the 128th Tank, 555th, 452nd and 379th Siege Regiments of the Death Korps, along with the 6th Colombian Infantry and 78th Vanith Guard, began to lay siege on the desecrated Fortress-Monastery of the fallen Hateful Goliaths, who had been declared <span class=""bb-i"">Excommunicate Traitoris</span> and what few remained of its loyalists were eyed with suspicion by other Imperial forces. When a breach was opened, the Emperor's Angels of Death were the ones to fight with the most furor, and the ones to take the highest kill tallies. Within an hour of the opening of the breach, the Fortress-Monastery was secure.

When the sanctioned psykers and librarians had finished the counter-spell to close the warp gates, the sky returned to its normal, bluish tinge, obscured somewhat by the lingering smog of battle. Before regiments had the chance to regroup and reoganize, Inquisitorial and Ecclesiarchal agents sifted through each man and woman to root out those whose souls had been corrupted. Many were summarily executed, and pyres lit up the darkness some nights, but thankfully, Aelric checked out as pure, although he was subject to a minor mind-wipe like everyone else. When all was said and done and reorganization could take place, it was found that Aelric was the highest ranking officer of his tank company -- because he was the only one left. As the Death Korps abided by meritocracy, it was only fitting that he be promoted to Captain and be made its commander.

And like all officers who call Krieg their homeworld, Aelric was not lax or cowardly in his command in that he lead from the middle or the back -- he lead from the front, as true warriors of the Emperor should, meeting death head-on and meeting it with acceptance, yet also with the full intentions of meting it out. He chose <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span> as his command tank, as it was what he first rode on through the ghostly ruins of what once defined his homeworld, and he intended it to be what he would ride when the Emperor decided that Aelric no longer had a place in His plans. Yet death always avoided Aelric, although it kept on reminding him of its presence through the passing of his comrades-in-arms, and the wounds he would sustain in combat.

And it was through more war that he became a Major, becoming commanding officer of the 128th's 1st Battalion, and through even more war that he found himself being dragged out by a techpriest enginseer from the slowly-burning carcass of his beloved <span class=""bb-i"">Merciful Justice</span>, with all but two of its crew, including Aelric, surviving the effects of a busta bomb from an Ork Kommando who had come to assassinate him. Evacuated off-world, he spent months in a medical bay of the Imperial Cruiser <span class=""bb-i"">Godhammer</span>, before finally recovering to find that the 128th's 1st battalion's leadership had been taken over. As much as he wanted to return to service, however, it was deemed by the chief biologis of <span class=""bb-i"">Godhammer</span> that he was not in any shape to fight, and that he must recover first, lest he fail and collapse on the battlefield. Aelric had lost both of his legs from the Kommando attack, and was now struggling to learn how to walk on bionics.

To keep him occupied during his recovery, Lord General Robert Guiscard of the 4,229th Army and on-board <span class=""bb-i"">Godhammer</span> basically ordered him to enroll in war college, as it was becoming a pain to keep him from trying to storm out of the medbay to return to his regiment, and he had yet no noble pedigree nor academic papers to justify his being an officer for the regiments outside of Krieg, so it would be a good investment for him. Reluctantly, the Krieg Major was offloaded at the civilized world of Ankara, which boasted a university dedicated solely to war, where the spoiled and ambitious nobles of of nearby realms, all under the banner of Ultramar, could learn to wage war. Yet Aelric was disgusted by the academic setting, how very clean it was, and how incredibly detached it was from real war. He found his youthful classmates and schoolmates to be brats, chasing skirts instead of completing their education for death, and he made friends only with the former military officers that formed the bulk of the teaching staff. And even then, they were not from Krieg, so he could not truly understand them, and they not truly understand him. At the same time receiving bionics therapy from the local techpriests, he completed this hell of four years with flying colors. Such was his disgust that he refused the artificer power sword presented to him at the graduation ceremony, although he was polite with his refusal.

Four years away from war distressed Aelric's warrior heart, though thankfully, when he had returned to Krieg, he was amongst the top of the list to immediately be organized and assigned to new regiments. The 133rd Tank Regiment had been destroyed in the firestorm that was the Orkish Green Kroosade, and was being reformed on Krieg. With its survivors, a small group of hardened veterans at its core, they welcomed Aelric as their new commanding officer and did their best to impart their knowledge upon the fresh-faced youths who would make the bulk of the regiment.

During his fleeting visit home, he visited his parents -- something almost unheard of for those in the Imperial Guard, since most never make it back home -- and thanked them for raising what had become a good warrior. When the time came for Aelric to depart, wrinkles and smiles creased alike the faces of Gertrud and Frank Tancred as they watched their son ascend up the ramp and into the maw of a waiting starship once more, not as a faceless grunt, but as a leader of men. His destination? A Forge World beset by Orks and Chaos. 

Just another day in His glorious service.

Allegiance: Dark Angels Chapter, 7th Company  

Abilities: None

Bio: One of the most capable and youngest Captains the Dark Angels have ever seen, spending much of his younger life being on the streets he whisked away when the Dark came recruiting. After years of hard training and physical augmentation he found himself serving in the 10th company of the Dark Angels as a scout. Yet in one human he rose to Captain.

It began when on a regular recon mission ahead of the Ravenwing he felt a strange power drawing him towards a long abandoned Church, his order were to locate a fallen angel. His squad moved onward forgetting him as he entered the building he noticed his Chapter symbol painted below the statue of the Emperor. Below he discovered something truly incredible dozens of suits of artificer power armor, painted in the chapters old colors, each one preserved perfectly, with a Master work bolter to match each. 

They were no doubt from the era of the Great Crusade, such a find was incredible and the young Scout age 40 found himself serving in the Seventh company. His next achievement would the capture of three Fallen, after the destruction of most of the company the the hands of cultists and a unknown chaos war band. The former captain, had ordered him to take command, he had been the standard bearer for the command squad. Thus after long debates they decided he would take command permanently as they did have time to reorganize forces, the hunt for Cypher and the crimson Slaughters attacks had grown worse. 

Now this Captain has brought his force's here to reinforce those making land fall and more importantly, to hunt Cypher who has appeared to be fighting alongside guardsmen on the planet below. However a Inquisitor is attempting to force them to aid in the capture of forge worlds and possible titans. Nothing takes priority over the hunt.

<img src=""http://wh40kart.im/_images/4a7221693f906792bf5301931f215cd6.jpg""/>

Allegiance: 122nd Astryan Airborne

Abilities:
Upon Wings of Vengeance: As head of the small, elite infantry taskforce maintained by the 122nd, Atreides has dozens of years experience leaping out of just about anything that flies in the Imperial Guard, and Navy, arsenals, and making it to the ground with the rest of his squad and their supporting gear, and making the most of this sudden assault from an unforeseen angle.

Fire for Effect: As the platoon leader, it is expected of Master Sergeant Atreides to be able to analyze a situation, pick out the most effective form of ordinance to solve the situation, and call it in. From airstrikes, artillery, and even man portable weapons, Atreides has an eye for picking out what will hurt the most, where, and when to hit with it.

From the Frozen Void, to the Hells Below: Stemming from his homeworlds close relationship with the Imperial Navy, all standing soldiers of the 122nd are trained to fight in just about any environment, from void combat and boarding actions, to the vicious street fighting and combat along open plains. For obvious reasons, Atreides is also highly competent in most fields of battle.

Bio: To know Master Sergeant Alexander Atreides, one must know his homeworld, his regiment, his upbringing and training. The Astryan system has only one habitable world, and habitable is being stretched in definition. Classified a Death World, Astryan VI orbits a supermassive star, the gravitational forces acting on the planet meaning that it spiraled far faster then a normal Terran day. With far more rapid day/night cycles, generally inhospitable atmosphere and nightmare climate shifts, scarce solid ground to settle on, and ruthless aerial predators make the world lethal to all but a select breed of man.

Each Astryan born on the planet learns fast how to fly various vehicles, sometimes before how to walk, from the home built flyers to decommissioned Imperial aircraft, always armed with at least several different automatic weapons. Dogfighting with aerial predators, traitors and criminals, and the odd invasion, every man, woman, and child that survives is already a natural pilot.

The Imperial Navy favors drawing upon these natural aces to act as pilots, and much of their tithe to the Imperium is paid in bodies, the best and brightest of each of the plateau cities pilots originally enlisting with the Imperial Navy. But a Guard Regiment was needed with the invasion of nearby systems, and the Imperial Navy had to learn to deal with a reduced number of pilots.

To raise such a regiment, the Astryan were equipped with a high number of aerial craft. Vultures and Valkyries were by far the most popular, but they got access to craft normally reserved for Naval use, such as Marauder Bombers and Thunderbolt Heavy Fighters. One suspects their close working relationship with Imperial Navy forces as a reason why, as Astryan work as often as auxiliary marines for the Navy as they do ground forces for the Guard.

But as impressive as the firepower and flexibility of the 122nd Airborne was in their air superiority, they still needed boots to put on an objective, as was their purpose to being raised. The core of the 122nd infantry were well trained, equipped, and motivated men and women who normally wouldn't have made the taxing standards required of the Aces assigned to the fliers.

Numbering barely 2,000 total troopers, the organizational structure of the infantry aspect of the is odd in the fact that no commissioned officers run the infantry aspect, their highest rank usually being a Master Sergeant. The infantry are split into four divisions, and subdivided from there as necessary, numbers and squads formed as needed rather than formally before hand, promoting flexibility in the field and not relying on command. Normally, the 122nd have to commit three to all four divisions to meet manning requirements in a theater of combat, though, so often times, the four divisions are only used as designators for where they are dropping and objectives.

Troopers are issued carapace armor and a choice of either las carbine, shotgun, or auto gun, depending on personal preference. Auto guns and shotguns are more popular, due to many simpler worlds being able to supply the ammo far easier than  any sort of las weapon. Any heavy weapons must be man portable, either by a crew or individually, and for the same reason as before when it came to autoguns and shotguns, heavy stubbers and mortars are more popular than their more modern counterparts. Specialist weapons have to be drop friendly, so flamers, grenade launchers (And accompanying specialty payloads, krak being by far the most popular), and high powered hunting rifles from their home world are by far most popular, as they are durable enough to withstand a beating in a hard landing.

All troopers are issued grav chutes, and further specialty gear is on an as needed basis prior to deployments. Generally, though, light loads are preferable to being ready for anything, as its expected that a trooper can improvise what he or she needs on the field. Advancement is on merit of survival, as cowards are weeded out at the jump into combat, and survivors are either lucky, talented, or both. Promotion to Master Sergeant requires a board of senior officers of the 122nd Airborne's approval, but otherwise, promotion is left to the judgement of the Master Sergeant.

Alexander Atreides is not an uncommon story within the ranks of the 122nd Astryan Airborne's infantry ranks, although his carried on farther than most. A natural flier and hunter back on his homeworld, his practical experience with small craft and man portable gear was not helpful for a pilots life, but made him a natural fit for the infantry aspect. Recruited as part of the founding tithe of the 122nd Astryan Airborne, he was deployed on numerous fronts, and like many raw troopers, expected to either die or do great things.

Luckily for the then young man, the latter occurred. Deployed against a chaos held hive world, his first drop was into a heavily held Hive, where it had been reported no other assaults had gotten any footholds. The objectives were deceptively simple. Open the gates, and keep them open for reinforcements to relieve them. Marauder Bomber, and its Colossus variant, bombed much of the outside of the hive into oblivion, days of ceaseless bombings and raids from the massive bombers pounding the hive into supposed submission. The drop still went badly, the green regiment suffering heavy causalities as Chaos AA weapons, hidden from the bombers wrath, opened up on the descending men. Then Corporal Atreides took charge of a group of survivors, fighting to the gates and holding them open long enough to get relieved, only several hundred of the original 2,000 surviving the suicide drop.

The 122nd Airborne learned from their mistakes, however, and replenished their numbers before deployment to other theaters of war, the core veterans teaching the rookies how to survive their first drop, and Atreides made a name for always making it out alive, a core group of veterans forming the future for his command squad once he made Master Sergeant. Lacking formal schooling in warfare, tactics, or formality, he often came across as uncultured and brash when dealing with the officers of other infantry regiments in the field. But one look at the results often convinced them to overlook the Master Sergeant's demeanor, and he got along rather well with most enlisted men.

The 122nd Astryan Airborne were just finishing restocking when word came for their deployment to a new front. A Forge World, held by Chaos and having an Ork incursion occurring at the same time, and all available help was requested. The 122nd Astryan Airborne were mustered for duty, attached to a Naval patrol heading to support the already entrenched forces, the whole Guard Regiment based out of an old Ironclad, <span class=""bb-i"">Undaunted Spirit</span>, which had long ferried the flyboys around and was well liked by the Guard serving on it, despite the odd looks it got arriving in a system. So, with the arrival of the <span class=""bb-i"">Undaunted Spirit</span> and the accompanying Naval Patrol marked the beginning of the 122nd Astryan Airborne, and Master Sergeant Atreides, involvement in the battle for the Forge World.

Inquisitor Helynna Valeria stood on the bridge of Strike Cruiser, watching the unnamed planet below as if she could see the troops dying from orbit. Her goal was worth however many lives it took to capture this rock. The remaining records showed that hundreds of years ago this planet would tithe 16 Emperor class titans and nothing else every four years. If she could get it operational or better yet recover these Titans she could gain access to the Necron tomb world that had somehow avoided the Tyranids. Of course she questions how they could produce so many Titans but most records had been destroyed or lost to time, the tech-priests with her however were just as keen to know.

The Dark Angels would be arriving soon and they would be help the imperial guard push through, if they didn't well a Inquisitor has her ways. She smiled and walked into her war room, she need to speak with her officers.

Aboard Battle Barge <span class=""bb-i"">Ultimate Vengeance</span>
Captain Abner had just awoken two Dreadnoughts, Cain and Deckard, brothers before training and both of them having been first company terminators until there deaths, now they would accompany there brothers once more into battle. He left the two tech marines in his company to ready them. He emerged onto the bridge just as they left the warp, he spoke into his vox taking a seat the ship moved in on the planet. ""Squads ten through six report to your drop pods. You have the honor being our Vanguard in this fight."" 

With that done he turned his attention forward, Chaplain-interrogator Daniels would be overseeing the hunt for Cypher, as to keep up appearances and hid the truth of there involvement he would meet with the Inquisitor before taking his command squad down and into the fight. if he could secure Cypher, well it would make him quite the legend among the Inner Circle. He opened commutations to the Inquisitors flagship, The <span class=""bb-i"">Word of law</span>. ""I will be aboard shortly, first I will send down my men and scramble fighters to assist the guardsmen below."" He cut it off not letting her respond, next he opened a channel to all guardsmen below. ""To soldiers of the Imperium, look up and rally, the angels of death have arrived, your salvation is at hand, rally to them and fight with the sons of the first Primarch! Glory to the God-Emperor!"" WIth that the drop pods fell and Angels descended from above and onto the battlefield.</div>"

It had been less than 24 hours since the inquisition arrived, and they already had a fair number of the officers on their ship, including his sorry ass. Now that made him uncomfortable, why the hell did whatever inquisitor was running this show want a penal legion colonel on their ship? Well, regardless of why he was there, he had certainly not enjoyed his welcoming committee. As soon as he had stepped on board he was surrounded by tech priests, all yelling about ""holy templates"" and ""perverted, non standard monstrosities"" and they had only recently fucked off. He had never gotten much flak over his jury rigged chimera's before, they were rejects, just like the penal legionnaires who drove them. ""Guess tech priests were touchier"" He thought to himself. He did know one thing, his Chem inhaler was running enough relaxants through it to kill a large child, and that was exactly what he needed right now. Flying made him nervous to begin with, flying surrounded by tech priests in an inquisitorial ship made him a lot more nervous. 

As he bemused about why anyone gave a shit about his legions presence on world the door to the war room opened, and in walked one hell of woman. He almost whistled, but stopped himself when he saw the inquisition seals and symbols, and sighed instead. ""There's our new boss"" He whispered to the officer next to him. Then, Domenico put his feet on the table, and leaned back in his chair, he really hoped she wasn't about to shoot him.</div>"

Admiral Powree sat there, her small battle group just on the edge of the system she was surprised when the council had decided to bring together ships from all there fleets, now she sat on the edge of the system watching these strange cathedral looking ships in orbit. They looked human yet she knew better than to just hail them, they were packing serious fire power, she had assigned two Salarian STG groups and 22nd Lightning Psychos placing them all under the command Vires Decius. It was a stealth op but she had faith, if there was one thing a Turian could do it was follow orders, his job was to protect the Salarian team and bring them back with there findings, what could go wrong?


Inquisitorial Flagship <span class=""bb-i"">The Word of law</span>

Valeria looked at the Penal Legion colonel, he was sloppy and undisciplined, she was about to order him to get his boots off the table then shoot him in the leg anyway when her personal vox picked up a message from the Dark Angels Captain, it seemed he would arrive shortly. The Inquisitor glared at the colonel. ""Please remove your boots from the-"" Before she could finish, a glorious sight unfolded behind her. 

The entire war room was greeted with the sight of the Seventh company fleet in all it's glory as drop pods fell towards the planet below, fighters and gunships piloted by serfs following them down. The voxes blazed and everyone heard a message, it seemed as if the Emperor himself had sent them the power to destroy there enemies. ""To soldiers of the Imperium, look up and rally, the angels of death have arrived, your salvation is at hand, rally to them and fight with the sons of the first Primarch! Glory to the God-Emperor!"" Many dropped to there knee's offering prayers to Emperor and Omnisire alike. The Inquisitor simply looked annoyed, she was not one for speeches but to deal with space marines meant dealing with there righteous convictions as well. She turned and watched the pods fall, she smiled her hard face turning soft with a smile, she hated to admit it but there was a beauty to Space Marine's descending that rivaled even the greatest painting.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Turian Corvette <span class=""bb-i"">Relentless</span> - 3rd expeditionary fleet</span></div>

The small Turian ship <span class=""bb-i"">Relentless</span> hung in the darkness of space, at the edge of the 3rd Expeditionary Fleet. The only nearby ships were two Salarian stealth shuttles, each holdings an STG squad. The two Salarian ships slowly revolved around the corvette as it drifted at a snail's pace towards the strange alien system. All three ships had shut down engines and were currently idling in an effort to conserve fuel while they shared a mission debrief. While the mission seemed simple enough and the orders they received were relatively open ended, it was imperative that they planned everything out to the tee. If just one thing went wrong, the small task force could cause a galactic incident.

Inside the ship itself, eight Turian soldiers sat. There were two rows of four, with the two rows facing each other. The small space was bathed in red light; the lights had been shut off to lower their ship's heat signature. The Turians were going about their usual pre-battle ceremonies. Three of the Turians had their heads down, and were praying to their legion's spirits. Each one was holding what appeared to be a lightning bolt - the symbol of their legion, Fulrem, or 'Iron Lightning.' A few of them were chatting quietly among themselves, remembering old battles and discussing the things they missed from civilian life. They were the newest members of the squad; they had been getting to know each other over the last few months. 

The last two soldiers in the bay, however, sat in complete silence. Each had their eyes downcast, their faces covered and obscured by their helmets. They had been here the longest. They were differentiated from their brethren by their extensive customization of their armor paint jobs.

In the front of the ship, hidden behind a metal door, was the cockpit. Vires sat next to the pilot as he discussed the final pieces of their approach to the conflict below with the Salarians.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Alright, let's go over everything before we move out.""</font> Vires spoke, his voice strong and authoritative.<font color=""#82ca9d"">""We're going to enter the atmosphere on the far side of the battlefield, away from the frontlines. We should be far enough away that we won't run into any natives. However, if we do encounter the humans or the other species, we are not to engage unless we are engaged ourselves. Let's try to be diplomatic before we start blowing them away.""</font> Decius joked darkly.<font color=""#82ca9d"">""We'll be travelling through primarily urban territory, however we'll be steering clear of the populated zones. According to our preliminary recon we've obtained from stratospheric drones, the area we'll be landing in was evacuated before being bombed extensively. We shouldn't run into any problems when we land.""</font>

Vires brought up a holographic map display. He began to mark up the map using his fingers. The information was being sent to the other two Salarin leaders, with only a short delay. The relatively close distance between their three ships made transmitting data via laser did not require comm buoys.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""The main resistance we might encounter comes from here: a highway used by the unknown conglomerate of aliens attacking the entirely human force. It seems to be municipal in nature, however we have reason to believe that enemy troops have used the highway before. Furthermore, once we pass that highway we'll be in contested territory - we were unable to get any images of the area, so we'll be mostly blind. Keep your men on high alert. Once we escape this part the city, there's a single ridge that over looks the frontlines. Once there, you two will set up your reconnaissance and communications equipment. You'll be sending your data to the fleet via drone roughly every half hour. You should have ample amount of drones to get the data across in a timely and safe manner.

""Once your teams are set up, I'll take a small squad and attempt to recover the fallen drone. Chances are the humans have taken it into their possession. My team will try to take it without making contact; stealth is of the utmost priority.""</font> Vires sighed, closing his eyes for a moment until he wrapped up the plan. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Is that it?</font> He asked the two Salarians, who had remained silent during the briefing.

<span class=""bb-b"">""That is all, Captain Decius.""</span> One of the Salarians replied. They were concise and to the point; Vires could appreciate that.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Alright, relay the plan to your men; I will do the same. May the spirits watch over us.</font> the Turian waited for the Salarians to cut off the communications before turning off the holographic display and standing up. He made his way into the troop compartment, examining his men.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Alright misfits, here's the plan...""</font></div>"
16967,War Never Ending.,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76128-war-never-ending,['Casual'],2015-02-05 14:55:00,agentmanatee,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Domenico watched the pods fall, he had only seen it once before on a little backwater quite a distance away. It was just as impressive the second time. But, seeing as the inquisitor was entranced by the spectacle,  he took the chance to take his boots off of the table. After the space marine captains little speech Domenico looked at the inquisitor, ""So, why are we here and not down there? What did you call almost every higher officer onto this ship? Throne, I mean you even had <span class=""bb-b"">me</span> brought up, I am a penal legionnaire colonel!"" Domenico fully expected to not get a single straight answer to any of his questions. That was just how inquisitor's worked, if they didn't want you to know something then you didn't know. They didn't like giving information to anyone, especially men like him.

Suddenly Rickert, the senior vox ""Officer"" of Domenico's command squad tapped him on the shoulder,""What is it rat?"" The vox officer whispered to Domenico,""<span class=""bb-i"">uh, sir the boys found something... some kinda weird tech... they says it don't look orkish or like traitor tech...</span>"" Domenico smiled and looked at the inquisitor, ""Looks like one question may have just been answered. ""</div>"

The Valkyrie moved swiftly over the landscape below, the only thing contained within was the team of five stormtroopers who sat in the back. As the group neared the ruins of what was left of a city that had been bombed quite heavily. ""So what can we expect for resistance?"" One of the stormtroopers asked, Sargent Theros spoke over the microbead comm so everybody could hear him. ""Resistance will be light, there are a few orks in there area but nothing to indicate a presence like that of the front-lines."" Elyias could practically feel the relief of the others around him, running into ork nobz or squiggoths was not high on the list of agenda for the small team. Who couldn't stand toe to toe with the brutes and expect to walk away intact. 

The Valkyrie hovered over the edge of a still standing building and deployed its ramp, with the efficiency of a well oiled machine the squad deployed. Each member fanning out and covering the other when the Valkyrie took off they went about their job deploying rope off the side of the building and repelling down when their boots hit the ground the moved, they got partly through the city before Sargent Theros raised a fist to stop and then another hand signal for them to find cover. Elyias took cover and peaked out at the two Orks walking past. ""Deh baws be a git, he as us eis bestest orks doin nuffin!"" One of them said, their manner of speech was enough to make the stormtrooper cringe from his hiding spot but he forced himself to listen to the other. ""yea! we deh best orks in deh whole waagh! Oi Morlug yah git get over ere."" A third orc joined them and stopped at Elyias' hiding spot. ""I gotz to go."" The one referred to as Morlug said. ""Then do it yah git."" The first one said, and with that the third ork proceeded to take a piss into Elyias' hiding spot, the trooper managed to push himself further against the rubble but not before getting a hefty dose of the orks stream all over his helmet and armor. When he was done the trio of Orks left and the troopers filed out. ""I heard that's good luck Elyias."" One of the troopers said. ""Yeah i bet you didn't know wetwork involved actually getting wet sometimes."" Another chimed piped in with a sigh Elyias just kept moving.

When they finally reached their mission location they set up one of the other troops using her long-las to keep an eye on the nob they were after. He had taken a relic found on the battlefield with him as a trophy and the imperium wanted it back so they had been dispatched. ""Command we are in position ready to engage when given the order."" Sargent Theros said, sending the vox message out to command who was undoubtedly in orbit with the inquisitor who called them. There was no reply from command meaning the meeting was in full swing so the group just sat and waited. Over the vox they heard the arrival of the dark angels which only brought groans from the troopers. ""We do all the hard work and the astartes take all the credit."" Said one of the troopers. With the arrival of the dark angels the team was scrambling to get command on the horn so they could take their shot.

<span class=""bb-b"">In orbit- Inquisitorial flagship <span class=""bb-i"">The Word of Law</span></span>

The whole command structure of the ""Stormbringers"" imperial guard had been called up to this ship for a meeting and they came, they always obeyed the inquisition and came when they were needed as they were the word of the emperor and they the emperors subjects so they would obey in devotion to the emperor. It took every fiber of Amy Santori's being to not want to drive a knife through the penal colonel's throat, the disrespect he showed the inquisitor was downright rude, as Amy was about to shout at the colonel and tell him to show some respect to the voice of the emperor Nicholas who sat on her left spoke. ""Why have you called us here m'lady?"" He asked, looking to the inquisitor for a answer.</div>"

Valeria turned glaring at the Colonel, she did hate his rudeness but he was smart, well smart enough to fix chimera's so he could drive back the ork's. She was a radical herself, a collector Xeno's tech to use to defeat there enemies, still she needed to show him who was inchrage. ""You are here because I tell you to be, however the reason for this meeting is simple. We have discovered that this planet has Titan manufactorums that we must secure. However we have recently heard news concerning us, a piece of tech that runs on Alien concepts was reported by skull probe. I want you all to secure any strange Xenos items and for transport. If any of you wish to remain you may, Captain Abner will coming aboard shortly to meet with me. If any of you need relief or support I would suggest asking him."" 

She turned taking a seat on her Inquisitorial throne, her agents and acolytes busying themselves as she watched waiting for Captain to arrive. She waited to see what officers remained and who left, perhaps she would take a few of them with her when she went back to war against the Necron's. They held the key to stopping the Tyranid hive fleets, she would have it.

Abner stepped aboard the Inquisitors ship, he was greeted by a sea of Tech priests and navy men who paraded him towards the bridge. He arrived to find the Inquisitor waiting, sitting in her room, normally he would have his his vanguard with him but today he had only two brothers with him. Brother Librarian Amos and Company Champion Lebbeus walked each of them dressed in full war gear. They greeted the Inquisitor with a nod, Dark Angel were not known for there high opinions of Inquisition then looked at those around the room. They looked between the officers as if passing judgments already, Abner stepped forward. ""I am Captain Abner, to who do I have the pleasure of working with? The Inquisitor gripped her throne, she looked pissed that Space marine had simply nodded to her then set about speaking to the officers she had called her. Abner gave a slight grin under his helmet, he enjoyed watching the Inquisitor squirm.</div>"

Did you here that lads? The emperors true sons, want to know who we are!"" Though his mind told him it was a bad idea, the inquisitor's answer had pissed him off a bit, and he wanted to make her as angry as humanly possible. So, he got out of his chair, walked up to the space marine captain and did something he would probably get shot for, and offered his hand for a shake. Though he kept the biggest, dumbest grin he'd ever made on his face, Domenico was absolutely terrified. All the relaxants in the Imperium couldn't stop the cold, nervous sweat that had broken out on his brow. He couldn't believe he was high enough to have done that, and it just got better. ""I'm colonel Domenico Di Giamberadino, Regimental commander of the 1523rd Ferian penal legion, at your service my lord"" Domenico was fairly certain the inquisitor was going to shoot him, actually the space marine would probably just crush him, or snap his neck or something else terrible. But now he was committed and emperor be damned he wasn't turning around till the space marine shook his hand, kiled him, or ignored him.</div>"

""I look forward to watching your men fight Colonel, Redemption in the eyes of the Emperor is a worthy goal. Forgive me if I don't shake you hand however I power armor it hard to judge one's strength. Now I believe we should leave the Inquisitors ship and head down to battle. We shall command from the front as the Emperor wills, if you would you may join me in personal shuttle down, it can fit all of you and your command crew easily."" Finally he turned to acknowledge the Inquisitor. ""If you have need of me I will be planet side, winning your war and doing my duty and if you attempt to order MY fleet let me remind you that Brother Librarian Amos will contact the Rock, the Dark Angels are here to kill the heretics and Xenoes and leave. If you attempt tell us otherwise I'm sure Grand Master Belial wouldn't mind explaining further. He was here for one purpose and one purpose alone, to hunt Fallen Lord and to seek repentance for his brothers sin's.

Unknown Forgeworld, Ork territory 

Cypher stalked quietly through the battlefield, he was searching for the guardsmen he spotted earlier, no doubt they lay up ahead, he found them sitting upon a hill, he heard one of them moan about how the Asartes took all the credit. So he spoke up, greeting them with a joke of sorts. ""Yes I've come to do your job, fear not Guardsmen. The Dark Angels are here to assist, it you who deserve the credit."" He smiled placed a hand on each of his pistol. ""I come with a warning, it seems Chaos forces are headed this way no doubt to steal your prize, I suggest you hurry your mission along. The Chaos Space marines are much tougher than your average Ork."" He spoke from experience. ""I you wish I shall lead them away and buy you time.

Domenico stood up straight,""Of course, I'll uh, gather my command squad."" he then withdrew his hand and began ordering his squad to prep, and get their lazy asses up out of their nice comfortable chairs and get their collective criminal boots stomping. 

As they were leaving, Domenico walked up to the inquisitor's throne, and said,""Some men in my regiment just picked up some weird looking xenos tech. They say it ain't orkish at all. I'll vox you the coordinates once rat tells them to me."" With that, he winked at her, waved at the other officers, and followed the space marine captain out.</div>"

He'd rather be down at the  drop trooper's barracks, finalizing organization. But, as head of the Drop Trooper division of the 122nd Airborne, he had to be up here to deal with the officers and play niceties.

The overall commanding officer of the 122nd was Air Marshall Fredrick Sturmburg, or for folks outside the 122nd, Air Marshall was the equivalent of a Colonel. Beyond that, and Marshall instead of Major, the ranks worked out the same as other Guard regiments. Air Marshall Sturmburg was a good man, far as Atreides was concerned, smart, didn't let politics cloud his judgement in combat, didn't throw Atreides or his men into the grinder lightly. Respectable, at least. Sturmburg was holding an archaic watch, watching the hands on it move as it ticked down to emergence into realspace. Nodding to the comms officer, the man got onto the shipwide band. ""All hands, prepare for shift into realspace. I say again, all hands, prepare for shift into realspace.""

Atreides braced himself on a railing, this bit never excited him. Within moments of the relayed message, the ship tore a hole back into realspace, the <a href=""http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/8/83/ImperialBattleship.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130328161311"">Ironclad</a> led the Naval patrol into its positions, other ships moving into screening positions around the aging model of ship. The <span class=""bb-i"">Undaunted Spirit</span> Began to move, while Air Marshall Sturmburg opened a hailing frequency towards the Imperial Fleet and its current leading vessel, and assuming the hail was responded to, he would begin earnestly, <a href=""http://sc2armory.com/files/wiki/arcturus-mengsk.jpg"">Sturmburg</a> speaking with little flair or wasted verbage. ""122nd Astryan Airborne, aboard the <span class=""bb-i"">Undaunted Spirit</span>, reporting from Astryan System as requested. Air Marshall Sturmburg, and Master Sergeant Atreides, standing by for further orders.""</div>"

Activate cloaking fields and prepare to enter the atmosphere.""</font> Vires commanded from the co-pilot's seat on board the Turian Corvette <span class=""bb-i"">Relentless.</span> The ship was old, yet it had the most state of the art cloaking device ever developed; even the famous <span class=""bb-i"">Normandy</span> lacked a visual cloaking field. The trio of alien vessels began to form a triangle; the formation was soon established quickly and efficiently, and in record time. The Corvette's engines blasted out streams of blue energy as it began to rocket forward through the cold depths of space towards a strange new world. Vires stared at the holographic projections of the planet below, his expression stoic and his body language unreadable. He was preparing himself for the absolute worst. They had no idea what could happen down there; for all Vires knew, the humans would kill them all on sight. It was already assumed the even more alien forms of the green skinned creatures and their grotesque, monstrous counterparts were hostile. Most spec ops veterans would say something along the lines of 'I've been through worse' here.

They'd all be lying.

The planet below appeared to be burning. Smoke billowed up into the lower atmosphere as the Corvette broke the stratosphere and began its descent. The two shuttles followed close behind, careful to match the corvette's speed. When the corvette sliced through the cloud layer, and the surface of the planet became visible, the Turian piloting the ship next to Vires gasped.""Are we really going down there, Captain?"" The pilot asked after a moment, glancing at Decius.<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Orders are orders, Airman.""</font> Decius replies instantly, not looking his pilot in the eyes. Under any other circumstances, such doubt from a Turian would be unthinkable; especially a commando. But in a place like this...?

The corvette lowered itself between buildings effortlessly, landing in the middle of what appeared to be some kind of square. The tall structures around them were ruined and burning; the only indication that anything was alive on this barren rock was the constant sounds of laser fire, and the barking of machine guns. The Blackwatch troops poured out the back of the corvette as the ramp was lowered. The Turians spread out, keeping their Phaestons at the ready as they checked for any hostiles. The pilot and Captain Decius exited the cockpit and followed suite. Moments later the two shuttles landed side-by-side near the corvette, and the STG filed out and into the small enclosed area. Vires lifted his omni-tool towards his face and began to speak.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""This is Captain Decius to Admiral Powree; we're planetside now and establishing a perimeter around the ships. We'll be launching drones in a few minutes - expect the next visual update within the hour.""</font></div>"

They had been sitting around for the better part of a few minutes when a unknown astartes met them, he was a odd one with two fine pistols and he was alone. ""Sarge don't these guys normally travel in packs?"" Elyias asked. ""Yeah they do but that doesn't matter right now. If what he says is true then we need to get moving orders or no orders."" Theros said, everybody just nodded. The marksmen put her finger in the trigger guard of her long-las and fired the shot going straight through their targets eye and boiling his brains. ""Go get the relic Elyias you stink, or it's just you being you again we'll cover you from here."" The Sargent said, and Elyias went with it.

The trooper crossed the grounds checking his corners and his back as he moved, when he finally got to the corpse he removed the relic from it and started to head back but a Ork slugga boy slammed into him and sent him sprawling. ""I can feel yah, andz i dun like it!"" The ork shouted raising his choppa to cleave the trooper in half, in a panic the trooper reached for his pistol and narrowly dodged a downward swing finger in the trigger guard Elyias fired wildly his hotshot las-pistol searing off flesh until the ork fell smelling of burnt flesh and the general ork stink. With a sigh the trooper picked up his fallen las-gun and proceeded back to the group a flush of adrenaline still running through his system giving him the shakes. ""Thanks for the help guys."" Elyias said. ""Sorry we couldn't get a good shot on it."" Theros said, and with that the team started gathering their gear and getting ready to move back to the where their valkyrie was supposed to meet them. ""May the emperor watch over you space marine."" Elyias said, and with that the team left fading back into the ruins of the city.

<span class=""bb-b"">In orbit- Aboard <span class=""bb-i"">The Word of Law</span></span>

The gathered command staff just looked at each other as the hulking space marine walked into the meeting, the emperors own sons have interrupted the meeting and they asked for names so Nicholas gave them. ""I am Nicholas Ailio commander of The Stormbringers Imperial Guard battle group, the man to my left is Amory Tremellus commander of the 122nd, and to my right is Amy Santori commander of the 3rd Stormtroopers. It is a honor to meet you."" He said and bowed his head in respect, but if the space marine captain heard them he didn't say anything to them instead offering them a ride back planetside which they gratefully accepted gathering their things and followed him out.</div>"

They left the Inquisitor fuming mad, she had half a mind to declare them all traitors and shot. That would do her no favors she sighed and relaxed, she would have what she wanted soon.

Abner turned to look at his compatriots as the pilot took them down to the front. ""Thank you for joining me Guardsmen, I do not approve of the Inquisition's presence her's especially, she has a vendetta against another Inquisitor, she's a radical and borderline Heretical for her use of Xeno tech. Now as to the front, show me where your men need support the most. I have gunships and transport for your wounded if you need them, five squads of my and my personal squad are yours, tell where we are needed most."" He spoke respectfully, in truth he found the guard a refreshing change, they valued the Space Marines, the Inquisition and there forces saw the Space Marines as tools and personal armies to order as they pleased, he would take no orders from those not his equal.

The Gunship moved quickly, it took them down into the atmosphere and landed them in the begins of a base, all five squads were present having returned from there drop points with no causalities. He looked over at the commanders with him. ""I believe we should get to work, we have Titans to reclaim for the Emperor.""

Alliance Dreadnought 3rd expeditionary fleet <span class=""bb-i"">Mt. Tai</span>

Powree leaned forward watching pods fall from the ships, perhaps carrying troop? As more and more images and data were collected on these strange ships it scared her more and more. Some were bigger than the <span class=""bb-i"">Mt.Tai</span> and that worried her, if they turned out to be hostile well... She refused to imagine the devastation. She received a transmission from the Captain however and set her men to work, the images that they would recover would tell us the true strength of these new warriors. She only hoped it would not be as Dark and depressing as there ships appeared to be. 

""Alright Captain proceed with the mission. Do not cause an incident there fleets fire power could greatly out class our own."" She stated calm as she stood folding her hands behind her back, the wait began.

Unknown Forge World

Cypher nodded as the Guardsmen left, he felt sure they would be already right now he need to go. The Dark Angels had come for him and he needed to finish his business here, business with Involving a fleet in distant orbit. He set off in search of there recon team, he had a feeling they would send one. They reminded him of the Tau and Eldar in the sleekness he had seen of there ships. He smiled pulling his ragged hood up as strolled off into Chaos controlled territory, those he met giving him a wide berth, no one ever truly knew what side Cypher was on. It made him a danger to all who crossed his path, yet only Chaos Marines and Dark Angels knew this.</div>"
16977,War Never Ending.,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76128-war-never-ending,['Casual'],2015-02-13 02:57:00,Eisenhorn,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Air Marshall was not willing to sit and wait for long, there was a world to reclaim in the Emperor's name, and he wasn't going to have the 122nd Astryan Airborne only a footnote for having sat around waiting for a response or orders. Looking over to Atreides, Sturmburg nodded to the man before dispatching orders. ""Master Sergeant, mobilize the Drop Troopers and prepare to deploy. We need your men to find a suitable ground base of operations to sortie from. The Marauders and Thunderbolts still have the ability to deploy from orbit, so we can still maintain air cover from here with them.""

Atreides nodded, making a brisk walk off the bridge before breaking into a smooth run, already on the vox with the Drop Troopers in the barracks. By the time the man had arrived, troopers were already on their way out, heading for the various flight decks built into their ship, where assigned Valkyries and Vulture escorts were on standby. Once a suitable operational facility was located, they would operate and deploy from there. Planetary scans revealed a highly elevated power station, currently on the border of Chaos held territory, that supplied nearby forges and also provided near total control over any who dared approach by land. That would be the fatal flaw in its defenses. Sturmburg remained in orbit to coordinate the aerial assaults while attempting to raise the other Imperials, so he could minimize the potential for friendly fire incidents, and begin joint arms actions against the Orks and Chaos heretics.

Master Sergeant Atreides was watching the Space Marine deployments from the main hanger bay, leaning on one of the Valkyries as the first wave was almost embarked, his command squad moving their gear into the Valkyrie, which would drop off what couldn't be carred by hand after the plant was secured. Atreides could respect the drop pod approach, even if the Asartes were far better equipped than his men and women. A tap on the shoulder by his second in command alerted him the first wave was ready. <span class=""bb-b"">""All Valkyrie pilots, stand by for deployment.""</span>

The Master Sergeant stepped on board, as the engines roared to life and each craft's hatch shut and sealed against the void, creating the internal atmosphere most troops relied on until entering orbit. Drop troopers still had their own O2 systems hooked up just in case a stray AA round breached the hull. Once all pilots sounded off ready, Atreides gave the signal to launch the Valkyries, briefing the drop troopers as the first wave of transports shuddered and launched.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Alright ladies and gents, you know the stakes already. The heretics and greenskins want this place, we're here to give 'em a swift kick off world. For that, we need a surface side operations base. We found ourselves a border power plant, chaos held currently, that provides some rather marvelous overview of any approaching foes, be they by land or sometimes air. But they, Emperor willing, won't be looking too far up. We hit 'em from the inside out, set up our defenses, and let the Valkyries bring in heavier automated turrets to take over and our vehicles for further excursions. We jump high, engage the grav chutes low, minimize exposure time. Standard drill, really. Make me proud, Troopers, and let's raise some hell.""</span>

There wouldn't be a roaring amount of blind bravado and chest pounding, they were all consummate professionals and experts, and some veterans, in their field of warfare. Like his own command squad, men and women were doing final checks on their weapons, from autoguns and hunting rifles to heavy stubbers, lascarbines, and mortars. Atreides own squad carried mostly autoguns, two of the ten regular Troopers carrying las carbines instead of autoguns, his second in command had his hunting rifle, while Atreides still favored his tried and true combat shotgun. The Valkyries were almost in position, the Troopers standing up to prepare to jump, double checking each other's grav chutes one last time. Atreides verified one of the troopers while another checked his own. All good to drop, and as they waited, he could hear vox reports as the first men and women made the jump, but before long, the hatch on the Valkyrie swung open, the high altitude sucking the artificial atmosphere clean out. By twos, each trooper jumped, Master Sergeant Atreides last to leave alongside his squad sniper.

Most normal men and women, Guard or not, would find jumping <span class=""bb-i"">out</span> of their transport more than a handful of feet above ground suicidal, downright insane, or very likely both. Most weren't trained like the 122nd trained its Drop Troopers, however. It was another day jumping into some Chaos controlled hellhole to stick it to the daemon worshiping freaks. Atreides prayed that this border territory didn't have any daemons already summoned, they tended to complicate matters greatly. Even falling at terminal velocity, it took what felt like hours to begin properly zeroing in on their target. Atreides could see weapon fire beginning to spark off from troopers swooping in on grav chutes, unaware and unprepared Chaos heretics being cut down from the furious assault. Hitting the key altitude, Atreides barked his orders. <span class=""bb-b"">""Troopers, deploy chutes and get to the walls, use the cover against them, Staff Sergeant, any leaders you spot leading the Heretics, put a round through their skull with your rifle. Corporal, cover and spot. The rest will be on me!""</span>

Atreides activated his grav chute, slowing his descent rather than trying to arrest it all at once, which was a rookie mistake. They weren't designed for that, but done properly, he was able to coast right onto the power plant outer barrier, wall he called it, and with a roll was on his feet without any ill consequences. Other troopers were landing, and while it literally rained hell on the heretics, Atreides vaulted off the wall and hit the ground running, other troopers following to take advantage of the shocked and disorganized heretic resistance. Atreides counted at least two heretics he personally dropped, buckshot tearing them down like so many targets at the range, and volley's of autogun and lasfire covering the heavy stubbers and grenade launchers as they began pouring fire into the main heretic holding point.

Heading up to a vantage point, Atreides grabbed a trooper with one of the long range vox sets along the way, hauling him up to set a temporary communication link with the orbiting 122nd Airborne, opening a shaky communication line to inform Sturmburg of their process, before ordering the Staff Sergeant in charge of the vox to scan for Imperial chatter and patch him through, but until then, he moved down to continue organizing the purge of the power plant. Standing orders for Traitor Marines were simple, withdraw, and if pursued, krak grenade and focused fire on joints and other not heavy armor plated. Eye sockets, mainly, if joints failed. If they didn't pursue, bring up grenade launchers and heavy weapons to saturate the positions before moving in, preempted with krak and frag grenade deployment. Meltas were popular, and many Trooper squads had at least one melta for clearing out Traitor Marines.

The operation took barely an hour before the Power Plant was swept from top to bottom, the preliminary sweep at any rate. Located a decent travel time, by ground, away from the nearest bombed out city made it a secure position, but patrols and sentries were to be organized. Marching into the control center of the power plant, which had been converted into a Guard command post, Master Sergeant Atreides began dispatching orders. <span class=""bb-b"">""I want Drop Section Omega on sentry duty, get the walls manned, heavy weapons set up with overlapping fields of fire. As supply drops arrive, augment as necessary to free up Troopers to reinforce the walls and defenses. Section Zeta, combat engineering, get the walls patched and reinforced, use the drops to help Omega get the defenses in place. And make sure some of it is set up for AA, we don't know the full Chaos air power yet. Or greenskin, for that matter. The rest of you, full resweep of the plant. I don't want any nasty surprises. Foxholes, tunnels, anything suspicious or unusual, investigate <span class=""bb-i"">after</span> reporting. Vox operator, tear down and set up in the communication building, take your guards with you. Reroute communications here, and let me know if you can raise any of the other Imperials. Move out!""</span></div>"

No, it is not a hood ornament. No... no you can't... I swear Gasser if you scratch it up anymore... alright... ok, ok I get it. We will be there in less than 5. Hey, we may be bringing... guests"" Domenico put the vox receiver back on rats box. He sighed, he should have expected Gasser's treatment of the weird xenos tech, the man wasn't known for his forethought, but when you needed shit done he did it. Like quickly grabbing a little piece of new xenos tech from another regiment, by any quick and relatively quiet means necessary, of course the Lord space marine didn't need to know that. Domenico made his way over to the captain, ""Before I join you in reclaiming any of the titans I have urgent business to attend to. My men picked up some weird xenos tech and inquisitor's orders are to secure it so I'm about to make my way their with a decent chunk of my regiment to bring to a more secure location. You can come with if you wish, but it won't be as glorious as capturing a titan on your first cycle here, but it's important. I'm off in about an hour, gotta mobilize you know? It's up to you."" With that Domenico turned and moved to his chimera super truck for last minute systems checks, he was the driver so it was his job. He was certain the space marine would decline his offer, in a way he hoped the captain would, it would give Domenico more breathing room to work the way he did. But space marines were unpredictable, and either way it was gonna be dangerous, Gasser had somehow managed to get pinned down in a crossfire between ork and chaos forces. Once again in the twoend long career together Domenico would be saving his ass, he smiled when he thought about that. 

""Great yea, 5 hours, I'm sure I'll still be breathing by then"" Gasser groaned, putting his own vox man's communicator back on the pack. He looked around at his boys sorry barricade. They were stuck between two vicious battle lines in a tiny ruin surrounded by the units super trucks. While they weren't real good at keeping  heavy stuff out if you were in them, standing behind one side was far safer. He had had the xenos... thing dragged to the center, where it was safest. It was so weird, all smooth and shiny and... neat. It reminded him of Tau tech in that respect, but it was just so different. If he had to guess what it was, Gasser had his money on some kind of surveillance bot... or something like that. Another regiment had found it and Gasser... procured it on Domenico's orders. It kept their regiment to valuable to just throw at enemy lines. Gasser sighed and shouldered his plasma gun,it was gonna be a long 5 hours. And the People And orks Shooting At them Weren't gonna kil thrmselves... probably. </div>"

While we know nothing of the creature's in this picture, we believe that the others could be humans or distant relative's to the humans we know. Thus we must know more and if possible send aid to these beleaguered soldiers.


TO ALL IMPERIAL VESSEL'S

We have rediscovered a lost Forge World and it's Titan's unharmed, however the Forces Of Chaos and Orks are all ready embattled over it, Imperial Guardsman have already arrived and have begun there campaign, however a strange piece Xenos tech was found near the planet this could mean additional enemy forces in route, thus we ask all nearby Imperial forces to make haste, we must reclaim this world! Emperor guide you safely to us.




The story so far...

Basically the Council's sending a expeditionary fleet with most of the Council races aboard possible others as well to try and learn more about this planet. However the Imperium wants three things, one is to purge the planet, second to secure the Titans and the Forge World, and third to begin study and eventually destruction of the Mass Relay they found near the planet.

I have no restrictions on the ME side however, I am restricting the Warhammer 40K players a bit, Please stick to Imperium or Eldar as I do not plan to have all these groups that hate each other running around fighting over the planet, we've got enough with Orks and Chaos to deal with.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Rules</span></span>

1. All combat between characters should not have any auto-hitting or controlling of other characters.

2. Please be civil in OOC, we are all people and we should treat other as we treat in anyone else, in game however human's who do not hate the Xeno's will be killed. (Kidding.)

3. Please be aware many obstacles will come before us and there will be alliances of convenience, while the Imperium is strong Chaos has taken root here and the Orks have begun a Waaaagh! Thus the Imperium will taken most any help.

4. I will be control most major NPC's such as the inquisitor leading this fight and Cypher.

5. This goes to those in the Mass Effect universe, this takes place before ME 3 and this is a mission to assist but also to learn more about these humans. Thus you'll be doing recon and surveying them at first.

6. Once all rules have been read post in the OOC that you read them.

Somewhere in south-east England, 
An American military camp.</span></span>

Rain had begun to pour down on the tents and barracks that filled the military base, home to a couple hundred American soldiers, far away from their real home. If there were two things they had learned over the course of the past months, it'd be that firstly England was a country based around the pubs and raining, nothing more and nothing less, and secondly they missed American cigarettes dearly. Because of rationing, British smokes could barely be called that, and tasted only paper and grass, which it technically was. 

Tom, or Corporal Thomas Jenkins as he was formally known as by the higher ranking circles of the military, didn't mind the rain there he walked out of camp. His time on Guadalcanal had taught him what real rain was, and this was a pleasant drizzle in comparison. His unit agreed with him, and of course, Anna. The love of his life, his closest friend and his to-be wife once the war ended, had already went into town for reasons unknown to anyone but the two of them. Safe to say, it was a reason Tom's steps were faster and longer than they usually were for just a normal stroll into town. 

Trucks and bicycles drove past him as he walked into the town, giving away how big the presence of military men was in the area. He finally made his way to the town square where he was told to wait for Anna, but not exactly when or as who. It was either Anna or Andrew, and the past days Andrew had been much more frequently around than Anna who he missed dearly. The rain slowly began to stop falling, and the sun shined from behind the clouds, signalling that it might be a good day after all.</div>"
17020,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-05 15:30:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Tom!"" A sweet familiar voice filled the air. Today she was Anna, a woman brave enough to risk everything for the war. At least that was the case until she had fallen for her battle buddy and told him everything. She could still remember their first kiss and how that had changed everything after nearly getting blown to pieces. Instead of the heavy plain uniform she wore a bright summer dress covered in pink flowers. She jumped into his arms, wrapping her own around his neck and kissing him lovingly, filled with passion he hadn't felt in a long time. She wore a wig today, she had really gone all out this time. The wig had long brown curly hair, it was hard to tell though and if it wasn't that he knew she had it cut short there would be no way of knowing. She looked like a woman untouched by the war. 

Anna knew it had been too long since she had been herself with him. While Andrew wasn't that different from herself she knew that it wasn't the same as her dressing up in a dress and really giving Tom a good look at her as a woman. ""I've missed you handsome,"" she whispered to him gently stroking the back of his neck. She pressed herself firmly against him, knowing full well the strength he had to hold her up. She was still slender as ever even the war couldn't put muscle on her arms. She gazed into his eyes, blushing a bit as she did. People were becoming defeated by the war. They didn't dress up often and many passing them watched the young woman clinging to her soldier. They stood out, but today Anna didn't care, she was with Tom as his fiancée not his battle.</div>"
17021,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-06 22:34:00,ONL,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Tom turned around in the direction of the familiar of Anna, smiling from ear to ear even before he could lay his eye on her, always a joy hearing her lovely voice. What he hadn't expected was how beautiful she was today, the kind of woman untouched by war and the horrors of this world, especially her long curly hair. He had never seen her like this, never as the woman she hid underneath her façade of a man. 

He didn't have much time to react before she launched herself into his arms, wrapping her own around him and kissing him deeply, Tom kissing her back, something he'd missed for so long. As they broke the kiss, Tom just looked Anna into her eyes and smiled, feeling truly happy. ""I've miss you too, beautiful."" He whispered, squeezing her tightly, perhaps a little too tight for her slender figure, but he didn't think about it right now. ""I got the rest of the day off-duty, they seem to think I'm exhausted and need some space."" Tom chuckled, finally giving in on Anna's weight and placing her back on the ground, the two of them not too different in height. ""All I need is you though. That, and something different from the canteen dishes we always get. So, restaurant for two tonight, Anna?""</div>"
17022,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-08 16:18:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Anna giggled as he set her down. ""Good, I so didn't put this much work into looking this good for just an hour."" She winked at him. ""And that sounds like a date."" She grinned and kissed his cheek and settled herself on his arm. They had a few people looking at them, the brightly dressed woman on the arm of a soldier, both of them looking as if the war wasn't happening right now. No one had a clue of course, Anna was more familiar with the war than any of the gloomily dressed women in the streets, and that was one of the reasons she wanted to dress up like this. 

She walked with him looking along the streets. ""Everyone looks so depressed."" She squeezed his arm gently. Then she shook her head, trying not to think about all of it. They were able to walk together down the streets until they found a small little restaurant buzzing with life still. They could hear music inside and a few nicely dressed couples were coming and going. Anna stopped and looked up at him, smiling just a little. ""Look good?"" She asked him, pressing herself up against his side. She wanted an entire romantic night with him. ""Then a hotel room after hmm?"" She asked softly.</div>"
17023,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-10 09:37:00,ONL,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Can we blame them, they've had some hard years."" Tom said back to her, feeling her hand squeeze against his arm and holding her a little tighter against him. The towns folk did look depressed, their clothes greying and sewed with patches, but when one looked closer, they didn't look hopeless. Somewhere in their faces, their posture, they still stood tall, sure of better times even if life right then was to be depressed about. The little restaurant they eventually found was a nice contrast to the street outside. 

""As usual."" Tom looked at Anna, beginning to chuckle. ""Oh, you meant the restaurant? Yeah, I don't see a reason not to. On both things."" He said just as softly to her, pulling her into a kiss. For one of few times these days, he felt happy and without a care. Well, perhaps except for the bill he'd have to pay afterwards. 

Tom opened the door for Anna to go inside, and followed her shortly after when they were led to a table. The restaurant was full of people, some from the town itself and others from the army base they both were stationed at. Like the gentleman he'd never have the opportunity to be, he pulled out the chair for his soon-to-be fiancée for her to sit down. ""Am I doing a good job at this? Back home I never had a lovely woman to treat like this.""</div>"
17024,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-19 22:13:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Anna smiled at him and sat down, gently putting her hand on his arm. ""Perfect as always,"" She said in a simple, loving tone. She had found it getting to be harder and harder going between Anna and Andrew as she wanted to stay Anna, because of him. As Andrew she couldn't look at him like this, she couldn't kiss him or cuddle into his arms. More and more of her was waiting for the war to end, she wanted to go home with him, show him off to her family and spend the nights curled up in his arms. At least she had some family that knew the truth about her, what she was doing and they supported her. 

Once Tom sat as well he reached out and place her hand over his. ""We need to go out on dates more often."" She had to raise her voice a little to be heard over the music and chattering of happy people. ""I don't get to be myself often enough."" No one else would understand what the true meaning behind those words were, but she knew Tom would. She liked dressing up for him and giving him something to look forward to when they got home. There was her own joy in it as well, she looked forward to settling down and having a family with him. Under the table she let a leg slowly slide up and down along his. They wouldn't get stares here, no one would question a soldier with a girl, even though they probably suspected she wasn't his fiancee but simply a call girl, she didn't care though, let them think what they wanted.</div>"
17025,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-02-23 21:55:00,ONL,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Tom gently squeezed Anna's hand as she laid it over his hand, smiling at her and blinking with his one eye. ""I wish you could, but we both know how it works. But as soon as this war is over, we can go back to how our lives are supposed to be."" Tom said to her. Though back before the war, <span class=""bb-i"">who they were supposed to be</span> were very different from now. Then Anna was just a normal American girl waiting for her love of her life and the perfect family. And Tom wasn't Tom, he was that German student who could have become an accountant back in Germany, or something along those lines. 

Now however, things were like they were meant to be; the two of them together, fighting to end the war sooner rather than later. Tom felt Anna's foot underneath the table, and couldn't help but smile as he nudged her leg with his, letting her know he was there. ""Still want that wedding in Westminster Abbey, Anna? The longer this war last, the more I think it's fitting for the occasion.""</div>"
17026,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-03-03 05:05:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Tom, you will continue to be a celebrated war hero, and your beloved battle buddy will fade into the shadows and be replaced by your soon to be wife."" She smiled at that. She didn't care that she would be celebrated, the people she wanted to know knew already. She was looking forward to being the lady on his arm. She blushed a bit as she looked at him. There was a great deal of her that had changed, but she knew Tom would support her no matter what, and at least for them, they would understand each others pains, and nightmares, or anything else that came along for that matter. She stood suddenly and pulled her chair around so she could sit next to him, she kissed his cheek and cuddled into his shoulder. She thought it was silly not to be against him while she could be. She was even the sweet, ever dotting girlfriend, takings his cover and placing it on her own head. She looked like a stunning woman with the long curls of hair instead of he short cut hair, the hat almost didn't even suit her if he hadn't seen he in it so many times before as Andrew. She then kissed his lips with a big smile on her face.</div>"
17027,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-03-07 20:08:00,ONL,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""...Thank you Anna. I love you."" Was all Tom managed to say to her as she sat down beside him, cuddling up against his shoulder. She was stunningly beautiful, more as each day passed and Anna was gone while Andrew took her place. When others didn't look though, they two managed to slip in some privacy for themselves. It was difficult enough in the peaceful military base, but Tom knew things would change once they were moved back into the war. 

Tom smiled and laughed when Anna took his beret. Andrew wore the same day in and day out, and as Anna, it was just funny. ""Perhaps you should wear it more often? That way it might fit eventually."" Tom chuckled along and kissed Anna back, joy filling him as their lips met. ""Now, what do you want to eat? And how long can you stay? Word around the base is that we're moving out soon, but we don't know where or when.""</div>"
17028,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-03-08 08:20:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Anna smiled, pursing her lips together. Then she leaned in so her lips brushed against his ear. ""You have me all night my love."" Her heart was pounding in her chest. Being flirty like this was so much fun. Then with a blush on her cheeks she pulled back. ""Let's each get something different and we can try each others, we never get to do this. Maybe get some wine to go with it?"" She gave a little wink. She glanced at the menu. ""I'll get the salmon,"" tonight was a good night to eat properly as she had broken the rules for herself a few times being on the field. She had learned to not be so picky in order to survive and was certain she would be forgiven for it. Then she cuddled into Tom again, listening to the music. 

She could see a few women watching them just a few tables away, looks of jealousy and scoffing at them clear. ""We have an audience of girls that would love to be the lucky girl on your arm."" She giggled kissing his cheek quickly and gesturing with her eyes to the women. ""I don't blame them one bit but I'm certainly not giving you up.""</div>"
17029,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-03-25 20:09:00,ONL,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">""And I certainly don't want you to leave me, not for anyone else in this world."" Tom said back to Anna as she gestured towards the other women chattering on about the couple. They looked like they were the same age as Anna and older, so their own boyfriends and husbands were probably fighting somewhere. So Tom felt happy to be in love, and still be with her as much as he was. Tom kissed Anna back and held her tight again, glad to have her safe and sound. <br/><br/>After a little while, the waitress brought them their food: a Welsh wine, salmon for Anna and steak for Tom, and of course what one would expect with the rationing going on. ""Thank you. Eat well, Anna, I know I will. We never got food like this out in the field."" Tom said to her, cutting up the steak and starting to eat. After eating a little bit and drinking a little bit of wine, he turned back to Anna. ""How is your family at home doing? Are they okay?""</div>"
17030,The regrown Pacific Rose [ONL&Rish],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76131-the-regrown-pacific-rose-onl-rish,['1x1'],2015-03-28 15:13:00,Risk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Anna was happy to see a real meal. She was starving and took a bite right away. Then she returned to the safety of being cuddled up against Tom. She had learned to be grateful for the moments in the field where they would brush against each other, but having him here was so much better. ""They're alright, everyone is recovering. But mom is starting to ask about me."" She frowned a bit. ""She wants me to come home, says it's not safe for me out here."" Of course that would mean both of her identities would have to go home. The hand on Tom's knee told him it would take a lot for her to leave. She still gave him subtle hints, hidden away. It was habit, she had to hide herself so much that she just did it all the time now. <br/><br/>She took another bite of her food, letting the taste fill her mouth. She did everything she could to hide that she was enjoying a cooked meal. MRE's just weren't the same, neither was hall food when they were at a base camp. Then she returned to her spot cuddled against Tom. ""You know I think she may just want me to hurry up and marry you and start a family."" She blushed saying that, cause she wanted it too but had to wait. ""She just wants grand babies and I don't blame her. With the war everyone seems to be having kids except our family so I think she maybe be worried."" She smiled at him from ear to ear. ""I told her out babies would be so incredibly adorable the wait would all be worth it."" Even in this dimly lit room Anna's blush could be seen. She rested a hand on his chest and looked him in the eyes. </div>"

The sooner we get kids, the better. I want to have grandchildren and great-grandchildren who I can tell my war tales too."" Tom smiled back to Anna after eating a bit more, and taking her hand as she rested it on his chest. Anna had soft and delicate hands, it was a wonder she kept them so beautiful through the battles she'd been through. <br/><br/>""I promise you that I'll marry you as soon as this is over, and all our friends will be there. I just hope my family could be there, even though they most likely won't be ready for us..."" Tom whispered, sighing as he looked Anna into her eyes, but then forcing on a smile and kissing her on her lips. His hands gentle brushed her cheeks, going down to her lap and legs. ""We'll finish up here, and go the hotel soon, okay? It's getting dark quick out there.""</div>"

""I know we will. I just.."" She hesitated for a moment, ""if I was a proper woman and stayed home."" She lowered her voice. ""I could give you children already, but with this war we can't even risk it again. We don't really know when this will end."" She refused to leave his side in this all. She had thought about it many times, but she knew leaving his side, leaving their units side would kill her. But it was starting to get to her that she wasn't one of the women back home, because all of their other plans were on hold until this was over. She couldn't become pregnant while they were on leave, she had to stay though. <br/><br/>His hands made her heart skip a beat all the same. She blushed, knowing that he could touch her like this in public was still erotic on it's own. She gave him a little nod with a smile and returned to her meal. The jealous looks now distracted by a few men in uniform. They were men of war. She finished the last few bites of her dinner and sipped her wine as she found her comfort as she always did up against Tom. ""I love you my dear Tom, and nothing will change that."" She kissed his cheek. She couldn't wait to spend the night with him.</div>"

And they say the war can be over by Christmas if things turn out right. With the progress made in Italy, it might just be true."" Tom whispered back, doing his utmost to believe the words coming out of his mouth. Things that were too good to be true, usually ended up in the dirt. <br/><br/>Anna's kiss made him blush, just like all those times before they could be themselves. ""I love you too, Anna, so very, very much."" Tom didn't care for the jealous looks given to them, as he kissed Anna back on his cheek. She did indeed look wonderful in her new dress and wig, though her short-cut hair did make her look rather fine too. Perhaps she would become what people called a 'trend-setter'? It didn't take too long for the couple to finish their meals, and Tom did feel the wine going to his head. Tom took Anna's hand and walked alongside her out to the street, headed for the hotel located further away from the army camp. ""You do look great in that dress, Anna, but I can't wait to see how beautiful you are without it."" Tom whispered, chuckling quietly as the couple wandered down the street, happier that they had been before. </div>"

She pressed her face hard into his arm as she giggled like a school girl. Once she calmed she took a few breaths and looked up at him with a big smile on her lips. ""I've forgotten how good it feels to have you talk to me like that and me actually be able to react."" She put a hand to her cheek trying to cool the blush a little but not having much luck. She squeezed his hand as she gazed up at him, then put a hand on his chest, stopping him for just a moment and stepping in front of him so she was facing him. ""I dare say I could wear my BDU's and you'd still want to rip them off me."" She winked. ""But you know I can hide more under a dress that's much more fun to take me out of. That is.. if I let you."" She almost seemed to purr at him as she put a finger to his lips. Then with a laugh she turned and ran. She knew exactly how fast Tom could run and in these heels and dress there was no way she could out run him, but she still ran trying to keep her balance as she laughed. They weren't far from the hotel but it was still fun to race to the door and dodge all of the people coming and going from the hotel as she looked over her shoulder to watch for Tom. She'd never get too far from him but it was still fun to act slightly normal for once.</div>"

That shout could be heard throughout the the  unit's HQ, a woman wearing a nightgown ran through the barracks towards the showers.
The problem was not because her boss would be mad at her for not being in time. the problem was the breakfast, everyone in the unit ate like pigs so it was something usual to be left without breakfast if you wake up late.

After the shower them dark haired beauty came off the bathroom wearing black clothes, with her weapons hidden under her coat she quickly walked to the main room where she saw....

She saw people sleeping on the floor, other still awake yet under the effects of alcohol, some dancing and others fighting.

""It seems we partied hard last night...""

Noona told herself and sighed in relief, she would have beakfast that morning.

Seeing everyone else he gave the leaf to Yenene and went with the rest in a bit of a drunken stumble to the breakfast table. ""So who knows where <a href=""http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/190/7/4/baby_turtle_by_graveyardcat-d2se43r.jpg"">Awanatu</a> went last night?

""Good thing he was too drunk to remeber"" 

Noona thought as she walked towards the table, on her way a drunk comrade bumped into her, holding a bottle of wine in a hand and whiskey on the other.

""...""

Noona used a just a finger to push away the drunk soldier, who fell on his butt.

Karlak was drunk too, his huge stomach was surely still filled with wine.

Trakeas called to Karlakm before quickly devouring the foodly foods in front of him. And he can safely say, this foodly food was goodly good. 

When Rythian walked out of the Women's barracks, Trakeas honestly couldn't have cared less it was food, he was loud, and clearly not as amazing of a conversationalist as Yenene.

What Rhythian didn't know though is besides Noona Chu'a the 11ft constrictor is very protective of Nia, and seeing this didn't quite seem right. So Chu'a did what any great friend would do, go ahead and start wrapping around Rhytian's legs.

This RP is about the daily life of the infamous unit 666 and the quests it's members take part of.

____________________Story__________________________________________________________

During his last years of life the late king Igolvert got really  worried about the problems the people of Kimlaska were suffering so he got an idea ""WHY DON'T WE TAKE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS AND FORM AN UNIT TO HELP PEOPLE?"" He asked himself and basically that how, with the number of the year his wife Queen Ilga died, the unit was born.

Its the year 684 and King Igolvert is dead, his son King Barlas rules without thinking about his people, luckily for them the unit 666 is there to help, something Barlas hates due to all the money spent to mantain the unit, money he could waste in his palace.

Crush: None

Relationship: None

Spouse: Once had a lover, but that was along time ago.

Children: Many children, some dead, some alive.

Personality: Amos is dark, brooding, unhappy and some would say evil. He cares little for mortals, as they are not his kind and tend to break easily. He once had a romantic side to him, but whether it is still there, not even he knows.

History(optional): Amos is a spirit, so he simply came into existence one day instead of being born. He was not always as he is now, yes, in fact he was once adored and loved by the spirits he called friends. As he was a guardian of the forest he called home and was not to be trifled with. However, upon a full moon one night in an age long since forgotten he found her, his love. Her name was Camektris and she was not just a spirit but something far darker. He was in love, but it was slowly consuming him, twisting his original purpose of growing, into an abomination. His works withered, died and he was shunned. Amos became a shadow of his former self and when he turned to Camektris, she was no where to be found. In his anguish he finally learned what hatred was, and destroyed the entire forest, and when it was done, he lost his ability to have a physical body. Severally weakened he slept, appearing occasionally to witness the world and find a way to have a body of his own again. His dealings in mortal affairs caused many to fear him, some to worship him and led others to attempt his destruction.

Alastair~ The serious one. Alastair really only talks to his siblings. But he is anything but shy. He will not hesitate to tell you he doesn’t like you or what he thinks of you. He can be very blunt and uncaring about others feelings. Unless you’re his siblings. They are the only ones he cares about. Alastair doesn’t get angry easily but when he does it is a cold anger. He won’t yell but talk in a soft voice that tells you you have approximately ten seconds to book it because heads are about to role.

Aiden~ The joker. He is all smiles. He is friendly to everyone no matter who you are. He likes to tease people but that is just how he shows he cares. He hardly ever takes things serious and prefers to play around rather than come down to earth. However, like the element he wields, he is a hot-head and is quick to anger. 

Autumn~ The shy, quiet one. She is the gentler of the triplets. She hardly ever speaks above her normal soft voice and she tends to stutter and blush a lot when she is nervous or embarrassed. She is a klutz, tripping over her feet more often than not. She is a very kind and gentle soul who is easily upset and tends to cry a lot. 

*Look at Aldous’s History*

Alastair is afraid of cats, Aiden is afraid of insects and Autumn is afraid of water, heights, loud noises, the dark, and being grabbed suddenly. 
Alastair likes taking pictures. Aiden likes musical instruments and being loud in general. Autumn likes reading and drawing.</div>

No Children(Unless his three younger siblings count)

Having been tasked to take care of his younger siblings when he was just ten years old, Aldous is very responsible and serious. He has Alastair’s’ cold temper but he has Aiden’s sense of humor. He only cares about his siblings, getting a lot of trouble out of Aiden. 

Their mother was never one for commitment. She finds a new boy toy then drops him just as quickly. Aldous and the triplet are born from two different fathers. Aldous’s father was a drunkard and Aldous refused to have anything to do with him. When Aldous was six and the triplets were two, their mother abandoned them and the triplet’s father took them in. He was a kind and gentle man who raised them to the best of his ability. However, when Aldous was ten and his siblings were six their father went out and never came back. They found out later he was killed in a scuffle with a crazed demon. Aldous was then forced to grow up quickly and carry the burden.

He likes cats, loathes dogs.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
A very snarky woman, prone to taunting those that cross her or making a jest at their expense. Usually very friendly, but not above suspicion and wariness when it comes to meeting new people. A simple woman in habits and tastes, but not in thoughts. She would rather sit and watch the river roll by than ford its depths to get to the other side. Always one to look for the easy way out, she isn't diligent in anything save for her training and her survival. She prefers to travel alone, or at least that is what she tells people.
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> 
Priscilla was once a god-fearing little girl, in a small river village with no name. Well, it had a name. It was named Mudbank, but she either preferred that it had no name or did not remember it had one in the first place. She was raised in a small hut near the village chapel, and as a result, she went to the sermons everyday to pay reverence to her god. Their god was a water god, said to bring them the rains and flows that brought fish and helped the crops to grow. That year, the crops hadn't grown, and the fish hadn't come, because the people were not devout enough. The pastor said that she wasn't devout enough. She had prayed every night that year, and the gods in the water still hadn't seen her as devout. She heard that there were still tithes to be paid, belongings to be offered and so the waters wouldn't flow. This made her confused, but she stayed vigilant through the tough years. The water god kept them fed, kept them happy and kept them safe from the horrors of the night... right?

It wasn't until the village was raided by a relatively small swamp dragon that she completely lost the faith. Just like that, her belief was shattered. The water god didn't come to help them, didn't come up from the deep to strike this creature down. It just ran amok, devouring people and burning down homes. It even got to her home, and still no sign that the water god would help. No sudden rains, no giant floods, no water elementals like in the old tales. Nothing. The only saving grace was found when a band of rugged men and women came to combat the thing, saying that they had been tracking it for weeks. They made quick work of it. They stayed for a while to help the village rebuild. They even found out that the pastor had dammed up the river mouth, and was letting water through as he pleased. That year the fish and the crops were plentiful. The water god did believe that they were devout enough, but he was being suppressed by man. Her belief had been shattered by a mere man, and that made her mad. She took up praying to the water god once more, everyday by the river and she could have sworn she saw the water moving towards her.

When it came time for the band of warriors to leave, after a few weeks of helping and hunting other horrors near the village, they said their goodbyes and departed. Slayers, they called themselves. Priscilla bathed in the river that day, and offered a final prayer, before stowing away on their equipment cart. She was 13 then. She convinced them to take her in. To train her. She wanted to help them fight the injustices of the world. They took her in, and found she had a gift. A gift for magic, or rather, a gift for dealing with magic. She ate it as if it were fish and bread, and stopped it in its tracks moments later. For years she trained, both her body and her ability, until she could best almost every person she had lived with the past decade or some such. Then she ventured out on her own, as a solitary Slayer, to just... solve problems. Maybe even find her way back home.

The temple looked old, years of weather had eroded much of it and what remained hinted little to what is was yet perhaps someone who knew history could decipher the ruins. His corporal form drifted away from the temple, the sunlight dulling his power yet this didn't stop him from exploring this new place.

The girl was dressed in a sort of gossamer dress, made of weeds and plant parts. Her feet were bare, and yet she danced around with utmost grace. This girl, was Aniram, and though Ani was loving this whole beach scene, she had no idea how she got here. 

She started to walk down the beach, until she saw the forms of other people, this was when she stopped, and took a seat. She would have to be careful, maybe these beings were mortals. And though she wished to mess with them, she was afraid of being seen. She titled her head and waved one of her fingers, causing an abnormally large wave to crash into a couple of these beings, she giggled, and waited for a sort of reaction.</div>"

She closed her eyes feeling the dark magic that swirled around in her made her shudder. So she raised her hand up, imagining the dark energy go to her hand. When she opened them, she saw black fire appear in her hand. But they couldn't see her, she was well hidden so she made the dark fire disappear.

Stormfyre paced in a circle, paws kneading the soft sand. Growling he searched his memories to see if he could remember how he had ended up here. Eventually he gave up shrugging, at least as much as a giant silver-white tiger can shrug. Tiger?!!! Why was he in tiger form? Stopping his pacing, he breathed in, calming down. Slowly his muscles started rippling, like a pond after throwing in a stone. Stretching out and up Storm’s bones cracked and changed, elongating in some places, shortening in others, molding and reforming to create a human form. Storm shook his dark hair out of his eyes and glancing along the beach he saw small humanoid figures in the distance. Grinning he headed towards them, in time to see a massive wave rush up the beach and freeze halfway. So the others here weren’t normal either.</div>"

Blinking groggily the creature opened her eyes. Frowning, she stared at what she saw; the ground and sky had switched places. As this realization hit her she groaned, her wings and back hurt like hell, and her sight was going fuzzy. Attempting to sit up she found that she was hanging from a tree, caught in its branches. <span class=""bb-i"">Soooo</span>… the sky was still where it was supposed to be, and she was the one upside-down. Stretching her wings and snapping many small twigs, she fought to right herself. Finally the tree gave up and dropped her, head first, to the ground. Smashing into it she looked up, cuorios as to where this was and how she had gotten here. Wait, <span class=""bb-i"">who was she?</span> That was probably a better question. Glancing down at herself she saw scuffed clothes, worn boots, fighting, fingerless gloves, and a dog tag. Picking the dog tag up and raising it to eye level the creature slowly read what had to be a name: Flynn. Flipping the tag over gave no more information least, none that made sense. So her name was Flynn? She liked that name. Rolling the word round her mouth she pronounced, in a voice that can’t have been used much before;<font color=""#ff0000"">“Flynn.

Every muscle burned in her body as she checked on her platemail and pack to see if they had survived the journey here. Behind her laid a splintered wreck of a raft, and a pair of snapped oars. She could only breath heavily as she checked on her gear, unsheathing her sword to check the blade and looking over the surface of her shield to check for any warping made by her sudden crash landing upon the rocks she now sat upon. Water dripped from her soaked frame and short hair as she stood up and stretched out her legs and arms, olive skin glistening in the sun. Maybe she'd find some glory on this island, monsters to slay or people to save.

She offered a small prayer to the god of the water as she walked down closer to the water and dipped her hands into the slowly lapping waters that beat against the little rocky outcrop she was kneeling on. She could feel the waters almost caressing her knees and hands in reply, and she sighed in contentment. Then she rose to return to her pack and equipment, sitting down in the sun where she had been previously, her feet in a small pool of water. <span class=""bb-i"">'I should get away from this sea air, it'll rust out my equipment quick.'</span> She thought to herself and she lifted her pack and platemail, equipment belted to her to make her look like a very well-armed peasant.

Alastair plopped next to her, startling the girl as she squeaked in surprise. He gave her a small apologetic smile as he raised an eyebrow at Aiden. Sometimes he questioned his brothers age sometime. There were times he acted like a fifteen year-old but most of the time he acted way younger. Aldous stood over them, eying the other figures that he could see on the beach. He was still confused as to how they had gotten there and wary about all the people he could see wandering the beach. From what he had witnessed so far some of them were not human and that did not comfort him because that meant he had no idea what they were capable of. 

Autumn sat there quietly as Alastair and Aldous started discussing strategies for anything that might happen and Aiden chatted happily next to them. The girl got up quietly and wandered away from them slightly, knowing Aldous was keeping a careful eye on her. She approached the water, keeping away from it warily as she gazed out at the large expanse of blue water before her. Something in the sand caught her eye and she bent, scooping up a seashell. It was pure white but when she flipped it over there were different colors on the inside. She smiled, stroking the sand gently off the object.</div>"

A long, tiring process but worth it nonetheless. She ran the rag over her pauldron once, twice and a third time to make sure she had wiped the salt from it and it took on that familiar metallic sheen that dimly reflected the sun. She had begun to don as much of the armour as she shone, but it was a long, long process. She had been at it for a while now, shining and then putting on the various bits of armour she had. As soon as she was fully dressed, she set to work on slowly pulling a whetstone down her blade as she looked around for any signs that there were others around, other people to talk to or save from peril.</div>"

He was particularly intrigued with the wave of water becoming ice and knew that these people were not mortals, not that he could see right away that is. So displays of power were being done he thought, perhaps he could show what he was capable of while in the sun. He muttered something in a dead language, and a ball that seemed to absorb light appeared in his hands, growing slightly as it crackled. A beam then erupted from the ball, aiming for the wall of ice and shattering it. Shards of ice then flew everywhere. If he had a face to smile with he would be, for now dark chuckles could be heard.</div>"

She sighed, only a little while spent on this island and she had already found people, well... people as far as she could tell, that looked like they were going to cause her some trouble. She raised her large, round shield nonchalantly as shards of frost and ice bounced off of it in a light shower. She felt one or two bigger chunks collide with the shield too, but kept her cool as she sheathed her hand-and-a-half blade and reached around to hang her shield from her back. This ice felt like a harsh reminder of the water god's will, and made Cil frown slightly before giving a quick prayer and checking her armour to make sure it was secure on her body.

The others here seemed to be far too young to be out on their own. She momentarily thought of herself at their ages. Still learning to lift a blade properly and struggling to control her gifts. A scared little girl with no home and no experience. She had come a long way, and she was itching to prove that to herself. She walked slowly over to the other inhabitants, wary of any sudden movement or aggressive actions. It appeared that a showboating contest was going on, with the various inhabitants laying all their cards on the table from the get-go. A bad move in Cil's mind. She'd rather let people see her as a lone swords-woman and nothing more to begin with. Never know who is out to get you.</div>"

Everything next happened in slow motion to her. She watched as the ice cracked before blowing apart. She watched as a long, razor sharp piece shoot into her direction as she stood rooted to the spot in shock. Suddenly, time resumed as an arm wrapped around her middle and jerked her back, shielding her face as flames shot out of the tips of slender fingers, vaporizing the ice before it could reach them. 

Autumn stood there pressed against Aiden as the flame-wielder grasped her shoulders and held her at arms length as his eyes ran down the length of her, making sure she was okay. A sigh of relief escaped him to find her uninjured and the boy hugged her to his chest. Then Alastair and Aldous descended on them and the process was repeated as the both of them held her out and made sure she was okay before hugging her. She told them repeatedly that she was fine but they didn't believe her until they had seen for themselves she was unscathed. 

Aldous narrowed his eyes, scanning the beach to try and see who had broken the wave of ice. He tensed as he saw a figure heading there way and he inched closer to his siblings protectively, crimson eyes never leaving the approaching woman. 

Aiden stroked Autumn's head, more to remind himself that she was okay than comfort her. He had been so scared when he had looked up at the cracking sound and saw a shard of ice headed right for his sister. He was just thankful he had reacted fast enough.

Concern shone on Alastair's otherwise expressionless face. He had never so scared in his life. He vowed to keep a closer watch on her, never knowing when something like that could happen again.</div>"

The ice wall had shattered, deadly splinters flying everywhere. Storm grimaced and with a slight flick of his hand sent all headed for him of to either side of himself. Using as little magic, with as little showy stuff as possible. Trump cards were better held in reserve. But still, he was curious, sticking his nose in where really he shouldn’t had always been a bad habit of his. His dormant Tiger part was busy telling him to disappear quietly into the forest and watch things from afar, but the Dominant human side was far to nosey for his own good. Hurrying without appearing to, Storm was finally close enough to see the figures properly. Slowing down and trying to look as non aggressive as a slight unarmed human boy could be, he made his way even closer, wanting to get a good look at everyone there.</div>"

Ace started to run as if he couldn't wait to explore, but then saw shards of ice flying towards him and a few others.

Stumbling slightly through the forest Fyn headed for the direction of the earth shattering noise she had heard, it was like nothing she’d ever heard before, but considering that she couldn’t remember anything beyond a few minutes ago, that didn’t mean much. Tripping over a root, and face planting into the leaf-mulch, Flynn suddenly wondered; why, if she had wings, was she not using them to fly? Frowning she pulled herself up and looked around; the forest was too dense to take off here, but maybe if she climbed a tree…? Picking the tallest tree, or the one that looked tallest from where she stood, Fyn scrambled up, leaping from branch to branch and swinging herself higher and higher. Reaching the small branches that would never hold her weight Fyn spread her wings, stretching them out to their full length, wider than she was tall, and in one fluid movement she tipped off the branch, falling forwards gracefully, and then she was jerked up as the wind caught her wings, the leathery membranes stretching taught. Whooping, Flynn angled herself toward the smell of salt and, relishing the freedom, she flew.</div>"

Her voice was girlish, but gruff as she spoke. ""Uhhh, I'm not exactly a local to these parts, so I was wondering if you had seen a dragon around these parts?

The ranger moved like a blur through the forest, his legs carrying him at the sorts of speeds that would nearly put a thoroughbred race horse to shame.

Not to mention there was far to many people. For now she would just keep circling, watching, and waiting.

""I did call, but for reasons that are invalid now."" She wiped off her nose, checked her nose-ring and spoke again with a frown, ""Didn't your parents teach you not to touch strangers?"" The straps of her pack were beginning to pull strangely, and Cil rolled her shoulders to adjust accordingly as she turned to the other, much more snarky demon child.

""And here is some advice to you, from a woman who has slain 18 drakes and 6 full-grown dragons in her lifetime. They work perfectly fine if you know how to use them. Verschlinger here,"" She hoisted the bastard blade to her face and kissed it on the chipped, lop-sided crossguard, ""He's been with me through each and every battle, hasn't failed me yet."" She sheathed the blade slowly, almost lovingly, and blew her short hair from her face. She then rapped her fingers on her circular shield with a satisfied smirk, ""And Beschutzer has guarded me against more dragon-fire than you've probably seen in your life-time."" She adjusted her gauntlets with a smirk and spoke in a voice heavy with sarcasm, ""So watch your tongue on issues you know nothing about.""</div>"

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">""And not all dragons and Dragonspawn are evil, after all I'm not nor is my mother or even my father and he has the blood of vampires and demons.

""Don't know when you popped up, but I thought I said worked will all sorts. Didn't say that the dragon-folk were evil, just said that we hunt evil.""

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">""Actually, Orcs are always evil. They're too feral. They rely only on their instincts, so they are considered evil because all they do is kill, pillage, eat, and rape.""</blockquote>

Priscilla scoffed and shook her head with a chuckle. ""You ever met an Orc that wasn't part of a war-party? They're gentler than most, and very spiritual. Every race has its bastards and its normal people. Sounds like you've only seen the Orc bastards. One of my closest friends is an Orc, and a priest. Healer and a diplomat."" She crossed her arms and sighed into the distance, as if reminiscing, her face decorated with a sad twist of her mouth. 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">""Oi! You folks alright?""</blockquote>

The mention of age from the both of them had flown over her head, and was pushed completely out when she heard a voice that sounded a bit older and more mature. She wheeled around and looked to the tree-line to see a towering beast of a man emerging from the brush. Eager to speak with someone who seemed a bit more grounded and a bit more human, she raised a mailed arm and waved slightly. ""What ho, and all that! What news does the day bring, brother?

Alastair wondered how old this person was because she looked maybe a year or two older them.

Aniram stained at the boy, and a look of realization flashed in her eyes. ""Yes, those are questioned we should be asking more often, little one.

Jacque suppressed a small chuckle at the greeting of the armor clad woman in the group. He hadn't heard the term ""what ho"" since the last time he'd spoken to an old dwarfish wizard he'd met a while back, still, the greeting was a good sign that the group was not hostile. ""<span class=""bb-b"">And a fine greeting to you as well, Miss. Funny you should mention being lost, I myself am a local, but I was actually going to ask if you all might be in need of direction.</span>"" he explained as he came to a stop two meters away from the group. Despite standing before what might possibly be the strangest group of people he'd met since his retirement, Jacque showed neither fear, nor apprehension despite the sight and smell of the draconic, undead, or otherwise nonhuman creatures that comprised a majority of this cluster of people. He'd seen many strange things, far more than what an average man of his age would have seen, and a result it would take something truly awe inspiring to illicit a proper reaction from him now. ""<span class=""bb-b"">So...</span>"" Jacque began as he placed his hands on his hips and cocked his head to the side a bit, ""<span class=""bb-b"">What brings you lot to this island?

Priscilla felt an itch at the tips of her fingers and the top of her head as the man drew closer, and tweaked her lips to the side. She could smell the residual magicks on him like spice on a hunk of meat. It was an aroma like a mix of fresh soil, mint leaves and summer rain, not unpleasant and definitely not something she had smelled too recently from the others. The smell of druidic or natural origins for magic. She could only smile as recalled her fond memories of sitting and eating with her Orcish shaman friend and her brief summer romance with a dryad. They smelled this way too. It calmed her. But now was not the time for reminiscing, she reminded herself as she shook herself out of her momentary trance.

She offered another smile to the man from within the forest and removed her gauntlet, raising her hand to show the tattoo denoting that she was a Slayer. ""I've come on personal business, been tracking a particularly muddy and disgusting swamp dragon. The hunt lead me to this island, over land and sea. You seen anything, brother of the wilds?""

Priscilla's eyes lit up with elated glee at the mention that her quarry might be nearby. She clapped, creating a crude noise of steel colliding with steel as she celebrated. ""Oh thank the waves! Finally, after all this searching, I can bring that beast its just deserts."" She looked to and fro along the coastline and then turned to look over the tree-line, a look of slight confusion on her face as she stopped and turned back to the local-living man. She huffed an annoyed breath and chuckled. ""Though I AM intrigued enough to ask, what else is there for this island to offer? I'm not going to just slay and leave with a dragon's head in tow.

She toyed with her nose-ring as she considered the offer of help. She WAS all alone on this island, with no company to assist her.

This is a much more personal affair than just regular slaying business, and that means I get the final blow. The second, we make our way on foot.

He was slightly weakened and needed the comfort of the darkness to refuel him. He would go back to his temple and search its contents for anything unusual. As he got closer to the temple itself, he failed to realize before that it was close to an old swamp full of mangroves. It looked unnaturally void of life and dark as if the sun avoided the area. A perfect place to retry a power he once had when he was uncorrupted. His shadowy hand touched an old mangrove tree and as he poured some of his essence into it, creaking and groaning could be heard. The tree became darker in color and started to ooze a black substance from its cracks. He had given the tree life, in a corrupted form which many would call a dark ent. However, he was no where near strong enough to control it now, and it lashed out at him. His form dissolved in the air and he retreated back into the confines of the temple to recuperate. He looked back at his creation, it was moving slightly learning its new powers and he could not help but be pleased with the result. It would now be an obstacle for anyone daring to get close to the swamp or the temple.</div>"

Slowly and firmly she sighed, and brought a hand up to rub at the bridge of her nose. She felt a sudden stabbing pain behind one of her eyes, and the smell of brimstone, grave dirt and rotting plant filled her nostrils. Her fingertips tingled once more and she could taste swamp air in the back of her throat, making her grimace in disgust. She waved a hand casually at the dragon-kin speaking to her, ""A tunnel is fine, just don't bring us up beneath the thing. Bring us up just outside the swamp itself. I'll take it from there."" Her tongue felt like sand as she spoke, drying out and becoming rough. All of these signs at once meant something, a sort of sixth sense for magicks like when Jacque appeared from the brush.

All useless to him but he questioned why they were there in the first place. He soon arrived in what he presumed was the central chamber to find what looked like an old sacrifice and a treasure horde. Skeletal remains littered the place and in a circle of dead bodies wearing tattered robes, a blood red gem sat upon a pedestal. An aura of corruption seemed to flow from it, so he decided to let it lay there, knowing that it would not effect him in the slightest. The treasure about the room came in many forms, more gems, gold, weapons and armor. Something was amiss however, as it all seemed to be tainted but to a mortal there would be no difference.

They were just an oiled rags tied around lengths of rusted iron but with a swipe at her boot, one of the rags burst into flame, and she held it above her head in preparation to head in to the newly created tunnel. The other torches, she took the time to stab into the earth around the entrance to the tunnel. With a succinct point to the torches she spoke, ""If anyone sees fit to follow and CAN'T see in the dark, take a torch and strike it on something hard.

It's safe to say there could be any number of mysteries about these lands.</span>"". Thus far things were going well for Jacque, in fact, they were going even better than he'd hoped. His arrival had been well received by the group, and while his adventure might have been starting a bit closer to home than he'd hoped, beggars couldn't be choosers. The ranger nodded silently at Priscilla's implied invitation and began to follow the others into the hole, grimacing slightly at the method used to travel to their location, as he knew the island well enough to find a discrete way to the swamps, but ultimately deciding not to raise too much of a fuss about it. It was indeed dark, however Jacque's sharpened senses allowed him to follow behind the Slayer ahead of him whilst at the same time keeping a comfortable distance. The ranger kept a relatively leisurely pace, after all, nearly every species of dragon, be they wyverns, wyrms, drakes, or naga, never strayed far from a location that they had marked as there. In all honesty, the only species of dragons Jacque could think of that didn't stay in one location would be those that inhabited the sea. ""<span class=""bb-b"">You mentioned that this creature was yours alone to kill, and I recognize that gleam you've got in your eye. With the species we're after and the way you're treating this situation, i'm guessing the swamp drake razed your village to the ground. Would that be correct?</span>"".</div>"

She drew her blade slowly, squinting her eyes as if to pierce through the obfuscating clouds of dirt, and hefted it in one hand with relative ease. Years spent in the training yard and on the hunt have made her strong, and she was proficient with wielding the bastard blade's weight fluidly in either hand or both. The torchlight glinted off of the blade, highlighting the nicks and scratches in its surface, but also showing the keen edge it held. The sword's handle was decorated with rune-embroidered strips of cloth that dangled over its macelike pommel and lop-sided cross-guard

Jacque's question caught her off-guard, making her pause in her step. The saddened expression on her face was known only to her in this dim lighting and closed-off space. She looked back, sweeping the hair from her eyes as she spoke. ""That is a very good guess. Yes. The foul creature ruined my home,"" The memory was still fresh in her mind, whilst she had forgotten the name of the village and exactly where it was, she still remembered the events that drove her this far. She continued with anger in her voice, ""Defiled the waters and devoured those I held dear."" She spat in disgust, moving now with more purpose.

Price eventually came upon five people, one group being what appeared to be triplets with an older boy watching over them and the fifth person being a girl(Aniram) who didn't seem related to them at all. With his keen sense of smell, he could tell none of these were human. Relieved, he began to approach the triplets and whoever else was there.

""<span class=""bb-b"">Your mission is admirable Slayer, but you should take care not to let your goal blind you when the time comes to do what you have to do. You sound as though you have the will to take your revenge, however that's not enough.

You'll have to be clear headed if you want to survive.</span>"" Jacque said as he lightly tugged a braid again. Although he wasn't sure if the woman in front of him would realize it, he'd intentionally used the word 'survive' rather than 'win'.

He wasn't quite sure if Priscilla could smell it yet given how much sharper his senses work than the average humor, but the hole that was being dug was beginning to smell of damp, rotting foliage, typical of many swamp regions. ""<span class=""bb-b"">I think it's about time we surfaced, dragonspawn.

After giving James a heads up, he contemplated pointing out the fact that Priscilla had said ""three and ten"" rather than thirteen, however given the fact that he'd also witnessed her physically counting out the number with her fingers, he held his tongue, surmising that books smarts weren't really the Slayer's strong suit. For now Jacque would let it be, however he made a mental note to teach her how to properly count if it became a hassle in the future.

After a bash of her fist on her breastplate out of small respect, she turned to Jacque and pushed the scent of the nearby swamp from her mind, trying to take in all of the sage advice that he doled out. ""I see. So in short, we have man-eating mud, man-eating insects and more man-eating mud before us. And we are to wade through it all before we reach the dragon itself?""

In the back of her mind, she could still taste the scent of something malicious on the air, just as before. Rotting plant and brimstone, smog and smoke. Her fingers felt as if they were punctured on all sides by needles, and her eye felt fit to leap from her skull, prompting her to rub it slowly as she gazed at their surroundings. Something was here.

Jacque looked at the group before him, they all seemed more than capable of handling themselves, so this didn't seem as though he'd have to watch over them, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Let's be off then, yes?</span>"" he said before making his way top side.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/monsieurshade"">@MonsieurShade</a></footer></blockquote>

Priscilla nodded and drew her shield from her back, holding it at the ready as she trudged into the swamp. The sound of buzzing insects, croaking frogs and the sloshing of still bog water became all that she could hear as she set foot onto the slushy, drowned soils. Her eyes swept over the environment, taking in all that she could and remaining alert. She could feel a great presence, the sense of unknown weight that she felt on her mind whenever she was drawing close to the end of a hunt. She repeatedly adjusted her grip on her blade, the pins and needles almost unbearably present. Her footsteps were careful, testing the occasional patch of mud with the tip of her blade to check if it is safe to walk on.

""Let us move quick. I itch to exact my vengeance and rid with world of this creature.""</div>"

""He's straight ahead,"" he said. ""I can smell him. If we keep going straight we'll make it to him.""</div>"

The air was hot and humid, sticking the ranger's clothing to his body with moisture almost immediately. He felt mud squelch beneath his boots, sucking his feet a few inches into the mud before he had the chance to pull them free with a bit of effort. It was at this moment that Jacque remembered why he disliked traveling through swamps. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Well given the stickiness of the muck we're standing in, it's not likely that we'll be able to sneak up on the beast. A pity, frontal assaults can be risky when the opponent has the advantage.</span>"". Jacque slowly slid his left foot forward and experimentally pressed into the mud, ensuring that he wouldn't sink in too deeply before stepping down and repeating the process with his right foot. The ranger continued with the somewhat awkward method of locomotion, ignoring the feeling of water soaking his pants and flowing into his boots as he made his way deeper into the swamp.</div>"

Shari had her hands together as she looking for a way out of the forest she ended up inside. The girl didn't even remember how she got here in the first place. One minute she was getting out of work and talking with her friends, then she followed something that caught her eye. The next she ended up in this weird forest. Her tail was tucked and wrapped around one of her legs, as she wondered if she would ever get back home.</div>"
17219,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-16 17:04:00,Lord Zee,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Amos was now ready to go back out in the light, for the darkness had given him more power now. Henceforth he left the old room and ventured to the mouth of the temple. He looked at at the darkened forest to his dismay and did not see the ent, whatsoever. It must have ventured off deeper into the swamp. He would hunt it down and see if he could control it now, for it was bound to him in a way. 
After awhile he found signs of its passing, broken limbs and trees pushed over. He was close.

The ent in the meantime, had meandered its way deeper into the swamp. Stumbling on the party of adventures with a crashing of trees and roar..</div>"
17220,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-16 19:56:00,Horrid,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Priscilla sloshed and pushed through the murky waters that covered the swamp floor with practised effort. Every now and then she would poke at the ground with her blade to check if it would hold fast beneath her foot. She could only grumble and groan as she cut a path through the dank undergrowth and damp foliage, looking back occasionally to check on her comrades, making sure the swamp had not swallowed them up. She did not like this place, these waters were impure and still. The water god did not dwell in these parts, these were the lands of earth and mud. Though she knew that the swamp was merely that, a swamp, she still felt in necessary to be wary for who knew what could be dwelling in the depths and dark hollows.

She turned back to look at the others and smiled, ""Tis not exactly a field of daffodils is it?"" She chuckled heartily as she pulled herself to a nearby bank from the water, inspecting her platemail with a disgusted grimace. ""Let us try to stick to the drier land as much as we can. My plate will rust before we even get there at this rate."" Her grimace turned to a look of surprise as she heard the sounds of splintering wood and rustling leaves coming from nearby. A great roar of oaken fury went up at a great tree creature emerged from the brush and advanced upon them, wasting no time at all. ""To arms, friends! An enraged ent approaches!"" She drew up her shield, held her blade out to the side and whispered a silent prayer to the water god as she saw the ent advance, preparing to dive away should it swipe.</div>"
17221,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-16 21:39:00,MonsieurShade,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jacque trudged through the muck at a toddler's pace, hardly something he believed befitting of a ranger, but it was a necessary evil to ensure he reached the destination alive. He gave an amused snort and shrug at Priscilla's statement, ""<span class=""bb-b"">It's a shame the drake you seek wasn't one known to inhabit meadows.</span>"". Jacque almost paused to wonder whether or not his statement would be viewed as insensitive, however a roar ripped through the swamp accompanied by the sound of trees being torn asunder by the creature that charged towards the group. The ranger spun, and, upon viewing the ent bearing down upon him, unsheathed his weapon and prepared to do battle. For a moment, the size of the massive amalgamation of wood and fury made Jacque wonder if perhaps he should fight not as a man, but as a beast. The sudden burning sensation on his chest from the talisman he carried quickly shut down that idea, eliciting a small growl of displeasure from him.</div>"
17222,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-17 01:53:00,Lord Zee,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The ent swiped at the group, its long knobby arm rushing with ancient fury. Meanwhile, it's roots dug deep into the mud, coming up on the back of the group, attempting to flank them. Its red eyes burned with intense hatred, for they were trespassing on its home and would pay the price.</div>"
17223,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-17 02:08:00,clasicspyro3,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Ze conjured up a fire ball and tossed it at the ent setting it on fire.</div>"

Mud and grime filled her ears and splashed onto her face, as she felt it seep past her armor and onto her body beneath the armour. She put her shield on her back once more, knowing that she would not be able to block a blow from this creature without incurring some sort of collateral damage. As the beast reeled from the momentum of its swing, she pushed to her feet and jumped at it, swinging Verschlinger in a wide, advancing arc and feeling it bite into the bark of the ent's leg. She yelled as she wrenched Verschlinger from the ent and rolled under another blow, looking to swing once more in the same place. ""Fell the beast! First, stymie its movement and then we will cull it!""</div>"
17225,Supernatural on Adventure,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76143-supernatural-on-adventure,['Free'],2015-02-18 02:21:00,MonsieurShade,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jacque sucked in a sharp breath as he jumped back to avoid the ent's, made all the more deadly by the flames that engulfed it's body thanks to Ze. He nearly slipped in the muck, but years of training on nearly every terrain manageable help him remain standing. The ranger lunged forward, his movement was still hampered by the muck, but not enough to stop him from slashing at the ent's knee. Once more he jumped away, thanking the nature gods for his heightened agility as another swing from the wooden beast nearly took his head off. His landing was less than graceful, as he sank partially in the muck, still he could see that his blow had at least left a mark, as evidenced by the long stream of sap that poured from the cut he'd left.</div>"

It was getting wounded badly at this adventurers party and because of this it grew angrier still. It lashed out with all of its extremities this time, intending to swipe at all who opposed it, while trying to guard it's wounded spots more carefully.</div>"

It was mad, enraged and panicked by the flames, but it was also very slow and still made of wood. She rose quickly, placing her shield upon the solid ground to take to her bastard sword, Verschlinger, with two hands. The hilt was tattered and rough, just how she liked it. She watched the flames dance for a moment, seeing their rich orange colour and feeling the energies within them as her face felt the flush of heat rushing from them. The ent was in place, but only for a moment. With a great inhale, some of the flames from its arm seemed to jump to her, entering through her eyes and mouth, rushing down through her throat to her stomach. The warm orange glow quickly changed, the warmth being traded for the feeling of smoke and mist as it changed from orange to grey.

With a great bellow, she leapt at the creature's stationary, lowered arm and brought her blade down as the energies she had consumed rushed into it. From her blade came a loud, howling buzz, and the blade sizzled into and through the oaken flesh of the ent, sawing its arm straight off. Priscilla backed off with a grunt and a sudden cough, which was quickly followed by a dry heave as the energies backlashed and made her stomach feel like a den of wasps caught in molasses. She wiped her mouth of spittle and looked to the others, ""Dark magicks power this beast! Be wary!""</div>"

Koichi stands at 5'6"" weighing about 140lbs. While he does often give off the appearance of a scrawny, and weak high schooler of average standing he is actually <a href=""http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac159/bryan_vega1/Combat%20males/karate_shoukoushi_kohinata_minoru_render_by_shadowaceblade-d4ysvfu_zpsf82a0d8f.jpg"">quite well defined</a> under his clothing due to rigorous training by his masters.</div>
Name: Koichi Nakamura
Nickname: {I can't think of one...}
Age: 18
Personality: Koichi is for the most part a kind hearted person. He is easy to get along with, and has this thing about protecting those who cannot protect themselves. It is likely because of this reason that he follows Angelo. Still aside from taking down The Dragons, he has his own goals. Some at least. He just doesn't have anything specific as of yet. Overall all though, he is loyal and extremely protective of his friends and family. To a fault even. In some cases even to those he barely knows if he feels he can trust them or if it means protecting someone who cannot protect themselves. 
History: The beginning of Koichi's life had been relatively simple and fine. He had no complaints. He figured things would go on like this for quite some time. However, he was wrong. He was so wrong. Around the time he was 5, he lost his parents. There wasn't some accident. It wasn't like they died an fools death. They were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. He watched it happen. He was powerless as his father and subsequently his mother were both killed before him, by a small group of members of the Dragons. He was an orphan as a result of this of course, but there was hope for him. His grandparents wouldn't be able to raise him, but he had an aunt. She'd been alerted of his situation very quickly and was quick to make her way back home. It was here she settled down to raise him with her partner. 

The two adults opened a small dojo. They taught martial arts, but for sport. Not for real battle. However, that wasn't to say Koichi would learn. He spent the next two years getting over his parents death and adjusting to his new life. One doesn't simply forget a tragedy such as the one he witnessed, but he'd more normally adjusted. The problem is, he'd begun getting into fights. He wasn't bullied per say. He simply attempted to interject in the bullying of others and ended up getting ganged up on and beaten a lot. His aunt urged him to give it up and try to lead a simple life. However, he refused. She didn't begin to teach him anything though. It was the man, Ryoichi Saito who began to teach him. He didn't intend of doing much more than simple self defense karate techniques. And that was more or less it. Until he had to deal with Kaede when she found out after Koichi got in trouble for beating up one of the bullies. Of course, it was for good reason, but in the eyes of the school violence was violence.

After this, Kaede did in fact agree to train Koichi along with Ryoichi. Of course, compared to Ryoichi who would hurt Koichi by accident during training and generally had good reason in his teaching techniques, Kaede was a spartan. Hellish training in and out by the two people who would go from being his caretakers to his masters. Since then his strength, stamina, speed, all the training of his physical abilities and the sheer basics of each style have been driven into him and still are being driven into him. Things get harder and more hellish, but he has yet to be allowed to move on. Ryoichi and Kaede had both decided that he could get by with petty bullies and the like with his skills. They continue to training him so he doesn't slack off, but they rarely give any higher level or newer techniques. They simply continue to improve on, and add various basic abilities to, his arsenal. And thus, Koichi is where he is today. 
Your fighting style: Karate &amp; Jujutsu 
Your strengths:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Due to his training, nearly 30% of Koichi's muscle is comprised of pink tissue. He possess a fairly good mix of strength and durability coupled with speed and stamina. It is higher than that of the average adept martial artist, but by no means perfect.</li><li>Koichi possesses great reflexes coupled with high flexibility and agility.</li><li>Koichi is can adapt to various situations which is very good when plans fall through.</li></ul>
Your weaknesses: 
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Koichi's kindness and honorable outlook towards battle is somewhat of a downfall as an enemy can readily take advantage and trick him easily if they do not share his honorable teachings.</li><li>Despite his notable aptitude for martial arts Koichi has yet to be allowed to advance past the basics. Thus, higher level techniques, or tricks pose various problems for him if he cannot predict them.</li><li>Koichi has made a vow to follow the path of the ""Saving Fist"" (Katsujinken for Kenichi fans) and never take the life of another. Thus, he fights to subdue his opponent and no more. It is easy for others who are willing to kill to take advantage of this.</li><li>Because most people he fights are larger than him, IE his senseis and most power hungry jerks he's faced happened to be larger, he has a severe lack of skill in dealing with low attacks or smaller opponents.</li></ul>

Your master's history: Kaede Nakamura in her youth had gotten into some hairy situations. From the time she was 7 to the time she was 10 she had a bad habit of getting into fights. Often it'd be to protect her younger sister, but sometimes it was just for the sake of fighting. Boys, girls, she beat the crap out of them all if she felt they deserved it. It was around the time she was ten though, that she met a man. This man had caught her in the middle of a rather violent rampage. He easily subdued her and brought her home forcibly. He explained to her parents that he believed it best that she learn to control this temper and find an outlet to use it. And so, against her will he began to train her. It worked out considerably as she became the woman she is today. 

Of course, it took more than just that. It also took her travelling the world and meeting a fellow martial artist, by the name of Ryoichi Saito. His story was of a different variety. He'd been trained and disciplined since the day he could walk. He was different from her, but a like. The two instantly became friends and as time progressed, more. Though they never officially married they did eventually settle down when the news of Kaede's sister reached them. And like that they were thrust into lived they'd been completely unprepared for. The rest is, as they say, history.</div>"

*Not as muscly as in the pic, but the scars are still real

Name: Milo Cash 

nickname (optional)= The Phoenix (even if he gets his ass beat he gets up)

age (highschool ages)= 15

personality= Milo ""The Phoenix"" Cash is actually a pacifist hating the fighting but knowing right now its worth it. He won't be the first to swing, and may not throw a punch in an entire fight... but he'll happily break your arm. Other than that he is relatively chill not letting anything major bother him. The only thing that can break his chill attitude is harming someone he is protective of

history= Milo was bullied starting at a young age, and no one protected him. From here the bullying grew to assault which led to many injuries even putting him in critical condition on one occasion, so he learned to protect himself. His first fight after learning to do what he does led to 3 arms being broken in sequence, and Milo stood there with a smile on his face. He learned to control the bloodlust he got from the fighting, forcing himself into a form of pacifism in fear of the beast inside, but now as times grow hard he knows he has to stand up and join the fight but he wont throw the first punch, but he will break the last arm

your fighting style= Eagle, Open Hand
  
your strengths (can have up to 3)= Determination, agility, precision power (not over all strong but when he needs to apply pressure like to break an arm he puts the part into a position so it is under stress and puts puts an insane amount of pressure to one point causing it to break) 

your weaknesses (must have 2)= Protectiveness, Not very strong overall, Often times distracted

your masters= Some Random youtube videos he used to get the basic techniques before working on some of his own</div>"

Like any other class it was just a simple math class, Angelo was board out of his mind but regardless Angelo worked hard at it to get a good grade so that he could leave his current situation and get a better life in the future. His current situation being his new gang starting to fight against the dragons, Angelo hardly had anyone on his side but those that were had real martial arts training not the stupid street fighting that most of the dragons lackeys use, really it was just them busting heads of people that cant fight back. Angelo hated thugs and bullies and Angelo hoped that the people that decided to join his gang agreed as well. 

Once the bell had rung for lunch period Angelo got up and took his bags heading to their ""headquarters"" if someone would really call it that when in reality it was really just the abandoned school building nearby, the reason it was abandoned was because of some mishap during the chemistry class and it was nearly burned down. However it stands strong as ever the school was just to cheap to bother paying someone to fix it up. Angelo walked in and went into one of the classrooms that was still mostly unburned by the fire and had all its desks and chairs still their. Angelo was leading this small group against an entire gang which seemed like an impossible goal but for now Angelo needed to lead them and point his more questionable ""friends"" in the right direction of their enemy. Some of his new members are aggressive to say the least and Angelo will have a hard time getting them to follow his orders but Angelo knew that he had to find a way to let them loose in the right direction. 

Angelo waited in the old classroom knowing that the others are meant to show up soon so Angelo can discuss with them and ask their opinion on what they should do first. Angelo was in no means unsure of himself but the road to friendship starts with trust as they say so Angelo needed to let them know that he wants their opinion and wants them to know he values it and will consider it before making a move against the dragons.</div>"

Amy Harper was good at school, she enjoyed it, and she wanted to get good grades. Simply to prove that she could. Beyond anything else, beyond school, she had her self-defense training. Her skills there reflected her own strengths, just like her school work did. 

She brushed back her hair, and looked up, glancing at the time seeing that class was nearly over. and therefore lunch. And the meeting. She shifted in her seat, and leaned back, starting to pack up, so that by the time class was over, she was packed up. She rose, slinging her pack over her shoulder, and started towards the abounded school building. 

She walked with a purposeful stride, not looking about. She contemplated a few things, like if she was doing the right thing here, joining this...anti--gang? She didn't know. But she knew she didn't want to sit about and do nothing, not any more. Not know that she could have a potential chance at doing something. She entered the building, figuring she could always turn back if she wanted to. She didn't have to commit right this second. 

She didn't speak up when she entered, preferring to stay quite for now.</div>"

He had a free period at the end of the day, and so he was able to get out earlier. He had spent that time doing what he always did, street fighting for cash. IT was fun and helped pay the bills and it wasn't completely illegal, or was it? What ever, he'd cross that bridge when he came to it, for now he would just deal with these guys.

They were members of that piece of shit gang, ""The Dragon's"", and had thought to try and shake him down. He had responded by kicking their asses, and then accepting payment for stopping said ass-kicking. He had earned about 100 bucks each, probably what they had extorted from others. The thought made him angry, so he gave them both an added kick to the gut, causing them to groan in pain. 

""Pieces of shit, the lot of you."" He spat, before turning to head back to the school, remembering that he had some meeting with this guy, what was his name again, Angelo? Yeah, that guy, he was making up a gang to take out a gang. Normally, Jack wouldn't go anywhere near stuff like this, as it was usually a bunch of no nothings wimps, but the Dragon's were becoming a real problem in this neighborhood, and while he was able to protect himself rather easily, the fact was the a lot of people weren't and that did bother him. The fact that his sister could easily be one of their victims with her partying life-stle also made him realize the danger this group could be, if left unchecked. So he was going to go to the meeting, se if it had any hop of succeeding, if it did, then he was in, if it didn't, than he was out. Simple as that.

Walking into the room in the abandoned school building, he remembered that he had yet to change out of his uniform, which was currently covered with some blood-spatter that had gotten on him during his fight. Damn it, that was going to be a pain to wash out and it wasn't going to make him look very friendly to the others here. Which was almost nobody, as he saw only two people there. One of them was Angelo, the other was some girl he didn't know. Pretty, blonde, kind of small. So far, his hopes weren't so high, but he would stay for a bit longer to see if any one else would show. For no, he might as well mingle. He sauntered over to the girl. raising his hand for her to shake, if she felt so inclined, the other being in his pocket.

""Sup, My name's Jack Walker, and I must say that I'm a bit surprised to see someone like you here. What's your style, if you don't mind me asking, mine's a mix of Capoeria and MMA.""</div>"

No fights, no real reason to draw any attention to himself. Koichi Nakamura was the 'him' in question. A young man who barely stood out. His clothing was chosen specially to hide his physique. To most he had an average physique, no really upstanding qualities. Truth is he was intelligent. Smarter than grades or tests reflected anyway. His masters often told him to that it would be fine to do something more outstanding but he preferred to lay low. 

Koichi honestly generally didn't like making waves, but that was all about to change. He'd heard about the gang forming to take on The Dragons. If it meant taking down that rotten group he didn't mind if he ended up much more well known. Thus, he could calmly make his way to the abandoned school building. Walking to the classroom he was almost sure this place could be fixed up. Maybe with a little elbow grease it could make a pretty decent base of operations. Well, that was if this thing even panned out properly. 

Enterin te room Koichi immediately took notice of the three people. Two guys and one girl. He entered just as one man introduced himself to the girl. <span class=""bb-i"">Jack Walker, huh? He seems trained. All three of them do.</span> he thought taking note of Jack's announcement of his styles. He put on a smile as he stepped to the side and leaned against the wall. How would this scene play out? Based on his words, it didn't seem that Jack expected te girl to be tough. Still it'd be interesting if she was. 

Koichi was already interested in this all. He wanted the chance to see where it would lead, if it led anywhere at all.</div>"

She just smiled, and said <span class=""bb-b"">""Amy Harper. I use Krav Maiga and Karate""</span> She smiled sweetly, and took the offered hand, stepping in towards Jack, she moved swiftly, planting herself so that her hips were beneath Jacks, pulling him towards her, and for a moment, it might seem intimate. She performed the rest of the moves, squatting slightly, and perfectly balanced, she pulled him over her shoulder slightly, and as she straightened, she flipped him over her shoulder. 

Again, that same, sweet, kind smile as she held out her hand to help him up. Her hair fell over her eyes, but she shook her head, the hair out of her eyes as she looked down at Jack. <span class=""bb-b"">""And that's all the advantage I need. People expect what they see.""</span> Amy knew that all people would see when they looked at her. A small girl who looked like she couldn't take care of herself. 

And then she would kick their butts. She rolled her shoulders as she waited for Jack to take her hand, <span class=""bb-b"">""I hope I didn't hurt you. I know the floor can be hard when you hit it like that""</span> She said, concern entering her voice now. While she normally wouldn't draw attention to herself like this, she had been trying to become more confident, as both her Master and her father encouraged her to do so. 

Still, her cheeks were red, and she didn't meet Jack's eyes, squirming slightly, realising now that she was probably being watched by the others in the room, and no doubt that Jack was watching her. Since she had flipped him.</div>"

His teachers hated that he never applied himself, but once they realized it was useless to try and make him do his work they just let him do what he does. When he tests they come out phenomenal and when he does the work its good, but you can't make it happen. It's a good thing they learned because messing with Milo right now with so much on his mind wouldn't have Milo in the best of moods. Though most things can't get to him, he was about to join in starting a revolution against the Dragons. Who wouldn't have that phasing them?

The bell rang and Milo wouldn't have noticed if it wasn't for him noticing something just out of the corner of his eye, one kid with a <a href=""https://t.cttsrv.com/transparent.gif"">dragon tattoo</a> meaning now even in school kids were recruited. Milo knew it was probably happening but now he knew it was a badge of honor. Following him out the door, Milo could hear the boys pride in it, the pride of him being able to run everything. ""He'll learn one day,"" Milo thought, ""even a mighty elephant is scared of a little mouse for a reason.""

Milo proceeded to the ""headquarters"" finding the classroom he walked in and looked at everyone, a rag tag team indeed, but this team is the mouse the elephant is scared of... but now its biting it's own tail. 

""So... why is he on the floor?""</div>"

When she finished her statement, he groaned, that wasn't what he had meant by what he had said, dammit. An innocent observation, that was all, oh well at least he knew she could fight well. Krav Maga and karate huh, he didn't no much about either but they seemed to be efficient. 

""No problem, I've been through worse,"" He said as he took her hand to help him up. Once he was fully up, however, he struck like a viper, moving his right leg in between hers and sweeping swiftly to the side, letting go of her hand as she fell. Once on the ground he'd make a move to punch her, stopping just short of actually hitting her in the face. ""And now we're even. Top 2 Rules of streetfighting, never let your guard down, which I did, and never help your opponent up, which you did. Not only do some find that insulting, but it leaves you open to cheap shots. But still, impressive speed and form, you know your stuff and can probably handle yourself rather well in a fight, nice to meet you."" He gave the girl a nod, taking a look at the other two who had walked in.

""And to answer your question, a misunderstanding. I assume she thought I was belittling her skill when I said a=I was surprised to see a her here, which wasn't the case. I just wasn't expecting any girls to be here, as I hadn't heard of any girls around her that had that did any kind of fighting that wasn't catfighting.""</div>"

I am sure you all have heard of the dragons, the exploit everyone, beat people that cant stand up to them, and they disgrace our art that we all have learned for years.

We are all here because I purpose we join together and form our own gang, I say that we the ones that can truly fight should take them on. I will not force any of you to join with me cause lets face it this will be dangerous taking on a gang like this but I will fight no matter what cause I will not stand aside another minute while they might be beating down someone to the dirt for pocket money. For some of you this is a way to vent out your anger to someone who really deserves it and for all of us to put our skills to the real test.

She supposed she deserved that, and she started to laugh, breathlessly. It caused her to probably look like a baffoon as she tried to catch her breath, laughing silently. It took her a few moments, but she soon had her breath caught. 

Her face was red, from the laughing, as she sat up, and looked to Jack. <span class=""bb-b"">""Girls get set upon by the dragons, too Jack. And it can be a lot worse for them. Unless those in the dragons swing to males, that is""</span> her eyes went distant, remembering how she had nearly been such a victim. She shook her head, and sighed, <span class=""bb-b"">""I wanted to be able to defend myself. To defend others""</span> She said, falling silent as Angelo rose to talk. 

She swallowed, looking down at her hands, still sitting on the floor, making no move to get up. She sighed again, and shifted crossing her legs, listening still. <span class=""bb-b"">""I don't want to be one of those people that just turn the other cheek when someones being hurt. I don't want to just think, 'thank god it's not me'. I want to be able to help them, to be able to protect them.

The girls ran out screaming, the thugs came out when the ambulance and the cops had arrived to drag their pitiful asses out. ""I have a sister, so you don't have to tell me. n fact, it was for that very reason you stated that I didn't think any girls would show. Less chance of becoming a target that way."" 

Turning to face Angelo, he couldn't help but tune out a majority of what he said. He didn't fight to protect others, that was just a nice bonus, he fought for the rush of it, the feeling of adrenaline in his veins, the exctasy of the thrill, that was why he fought, that was what summoned his inner demon that had made him feared by many in the street fighting circuit. But that didn't mean he was blind to the needs of those around him, these Dragon's needed to be slain, no if's, ands, or buts about it.

""I may not agree with you on some of the things you just said, but I do agree that those fuckers need to be stopped. If you guys thing you can do it, then I see no problem in joining up in this dragon hunt of yours.""</div>"

""Time to show the dragons why even an elephant is scared of a mouse. Before we start though I'm going to make it clear, I won't throw the first punch I won't start the fight, but I will gladly end it.""

Milo's thoughts quickly dragged him back to his first fight his eyes drifting their heavy stare. He went back to the moment he first really got torn in himself. One side loved the pain he caused and the feeling of victory and freedom and knowing he was strong, but the other side hated himself possibly ruining kid's lives... his thoughts continued to drift deeper</div>"

""Oh... My..."" His laughter cut off the sentence for a moment. He hadn't quite expected that, but he was glad he got to witness it. He knew after this he'd have to introduce himself possibly or at least apologize for laughing, but still, he couldn't help it. Then, Jack decided to retaliate. His words were correct, but it kind of felt like he just wanted a little payback. Koichi wouldn't say that of course. He wasn't really used to these people just yet. 

Then, he heard a question. Somebody wanted to know why he was on the floor. ""S-sorry... What? Oh... Yeah... Um..."" He was going to answer the next person who showed up, but soon Jack did himself. ""Right... I guess that was it."" He said as he straightened himself out a bit. ""You should have been here. I got a real kick out of it myself."" He admitted before glancing at Jack. ""Sorry for laughing... And... Kind of enjoying the sight."" At this point it was all in good fun, and his sincerity could be seen on his face as he rubbed the back of his head. 

That was about the time the one who called for this meeting began to speak. Angelo was his name. He made good points, even if his speech was a bit long. Still he liked the charisma. He could follow this guy. And the whole subject left him enough incentive to fight. ""I don't know about everyone else here, but I'll lend you my strength for this fight. I've got a bit of a score to settle with The Dragons anyway."" He said with a small smile. ""I'm Koichi Nakamura, Karate and Jujutsu disciple. If you have my back I'll have your's."" Straightforward and to the point he spoke honestly. And with that it seemed to be settled. 

And without another word on that matter he offered a hand to Amy. ""I know Jack said you shouldn't help up an opponent, but I'm sure the same rule holds no meanings for allies. Or well, future allies."" He said to her so as to let her know he came in peace.</div>"

""You have to trust people to become better"" She said, brushing herself down when she was standing. ""Maybe we can help each other with the karate"" She said brightly, taking the leap and saying that, as she looked around at the othes, who all seemed content to be a part of this. 

She was a little nervous to be going out, to be fighting right away, and for a brief second she wondered if she would just be burden to them. Guys had an odd sense of honor and purpose, and even though they knew she could fight, would they be honor bound to protect her? She would just have to make sure that didn't happen, she thought to herself, as she left her pack in the classroom, not waiting it to be a burden as she fought. 

She swallowed, and tied back her hair so that it wouldn't get in her eyes, but also enough so that it couldn't be used against her, up in a bun so that it couldn't easily be grabbed. She followed Angelo out of the classroom, staying silent and just nodded.</div>"

Koichi responded. ""And yeah. That would be great."" He referred to helping each other with Karate. Wihtout much else to say he listened to Angelo once more. It seemed they'd be going off right away. Nobody seemed particularly nervous. Well... Maybe Amy. He chuckled and gave her a quick pat on the back. ""Relax. It's just a fight."" He didn't know why she was nervous so he didn't try to give advice or say anything else. But given he was confident in his ability and he wasn't sure any of the dragon's could match up to Ryo or his aunt he simply remained calm. The smile on his face, however, would soon fade when they reached the door. He breathed in and soon exhaled. It wouldn't be smart not to take a fight seriously from the start. Even if it was the dragons. 

Now all that was left, was to fight it seemed. ""I don't know about these guys, but I'm not backing out."" He was more serious now, giving off a much more battle feeling as he rolled up his baggy sleeves. If he was gonna be fighting more it'd probably be smart to get more form fitting clothes. A problem for later though. ""Let's just try and make this quick. I missed lunch."" He gave a slight joke despite the mostly serious air about him.</div>"

He had enough of fancy talk when he had to speak to his parents, who took 5 minutes to ask him how his day was. He followed Angelo to the dragon's hideout, moving past him when he stopped and proceeding to kick the door down, a smile on his face as he did so. ""Hello there, you dragon bitches. The Ice Blue Devil has come to collect his dues, so pay up with your blood."" Jack walked in cracking his neck a little after he put on his brass knuckles, and loosening up for the fight. ""Oh, and please scream as loud as you can when I break your face, it's more fun that way.""

Did Jack mean that, hell no, he wasn't a psychopath, but he could sure act like one. It was part of his street fighting schtick, as well as something he did to unnerve his opponents. People generally don't like to fight crazy people, as they are very unpredictable. He took a stance, bouncing up and down to a rhythm only he could hear as he eyed his opponents. If he was out-numbered, which was great as that was what Capoeria excelled at dealing with.</div>"

""You know what, not even gonna question brohan... lets just get this going"" 

As the charging started Milo waited, taking a solid chop down onto his right side collar bone with a wooden sword, now he was allowed to react. As the next swing came down Milo grabbed his attackers hand with his left, twisted the arm to the right and quickly swung his leg up pushing down snapping the grunts arm. Next that came was a guy with a chain who got a solid whip into Milo's face, ""great another scar"" Milo thought as he grabbed the other guys arm pulling him in as Milo pulled up his leg exposing the dudes throat for an eagle claw, but before Milo could do what he wanted he got hit in the face with a book knocking him off balance. 

""Really dude a book?""
""<font color=""black"">Yeah I hit you with a book,</font>""
""Not cool man"" Milo said as he palm-striked the guy in the face
""<font color=""black"">Oh so you're just gonna palm me in the face?</font>""
""No"" Milo said before some guy hit him with a fist, ""You know what? Not coo--"" He didn't finish his sentence before getting kneed in the gut. Milo got up pretty quick, but pretty winded grabbing the guy who just kneed him, first by the arm and holding him in front of Milo (doing his best at least) as he charged into the guy who hit him with the book, knocking them both over. Turning his attention to the chain guy who stood there a little stunned by watching the sheer stupidity of the moment. Going over to him Milo disarmed him throwing the chain off into the background. After that, he just cheap shotted the guy, no point in wasting time or energy. Going back to the other two he found the chain laying on top of them as they were working on getting up while in the mob of people, Milo just took out their arms and tied them up with the chain.</div>"

He grabbed the book as the grunt swung it at him, grabbing said grunt by the shoulder as he ripped the book out of the grunt's hands and proceeded to beat him across the face with it. 

""Hey.<span class=""bb-b"">Bam</span> Bitch.<span class=""bb-b"">Bam</span> You.<span class=""bb-b"">Bam</span> Just.<span class=""bb-b"">Bam</span> Got.<span class=""bb-b"">Bam</span> Annnnnd he's unconscious, damn, at least man up enough to let me finish my joke."" Jack dropped the grunt as two more charged him from either side, doing a nand stand as he spun-kicked both attacker's right in their jaw, before flipping back up with a 'Whoop'. <span class=""bb-i"">'Man, the fight barely started and their dropping like flies.'</span>

Suddenly a yell came from his side as he saw that Milo guy break one of the grunt's arms. <span class=""bb-i"">'Yikes, glad he's on our side, man, that's a brutal style if I ever saw one.'</span>  Re-focusing on his fight, he was met with a swing to the face by one of the sword wielding grunts, opening a cut on his face as it hit. Jack went with the flow of the strike, using the momentum to power his iwn kick, a spining reverse roundhouse right to the guy's face, following it up with a jab to the throat then a kick to the balls. He'd held back on the throat punch so he didn't kill the guy, but he'd gone full throttle with the cheap nutshot, nit caring if the guy lost his ability to procreate. If he was in this gang, he didn't deserve it anyway.</div>"

She wasn't surprised to see the variety of weapons the dragons fought with. She swallowed, and as one charged her with a wooden sword, she just starred at them. 

<font color=""#fff79a"">""Hey! No fair, why do I get the girl?""</font> they said, <font color=""#fff79a"">At least she's cute""</font>

Amy just watched him draw nearer, and then she was moving in a smooth style, using a combination of both Krav Magyar and karate, She countered a blow even before the guy started it, darting in quickly, and back, using both her side and speed to dodge attacks. She was fluid, and flexible, her training as a dancer effective in the fighting. 

She soon had the guy flipped, and after straddling him, she punched him into unconsciousness, two quick punches to the face, and rolled away from another blow, launching herself up and away from an attack. She blocked a blow with an effective karate block, and smoothly threw a punch, darting back in, and throwing an upper cut to her next opponents stomach, causing his breath to come out in a <font color=""#a2d39c"">""woosh""</font> before he recovered, she stepped on his foot, swept his legs out from under him, and thrown a brutal kick to his face, breaking his nose, sending blood flying. 

She stood up straight, and looked around at the other Dragons around her. <font color=""#8493ca"">""Anyone else?""</font> she said, as two charged her, one with a chain, the other with a book. The chain hit her along one shoulder, her side, and she moved with the blow, swinging out a side ways kick, getting the guy in the stomach, and spun about, throwing an easy punch towards the second one. She was not going to get hit by a damn book.</div>"

Jack kicked the door in. The dragons thought this was a joke. Especially after after Angelo entered and spoke. Too bad they didn't take him up on the offer. That might have saved the brutally broken bones and sheer beat down many were receiving. 

Koichi observed for a moment before joining in as he walked through the door himself. ""Bout 20 people or so. Five of us. Four per?"" He mumbled to himself as as all group approached him. 

""Looks like this ones a little nuts!"" One member laughed as he swung at Koichi with a bamboo sword. Where'd he even get that? ""Haha take him d--"" he was shut up when he received a quick punch to the face. 

""Your swing was too slow and you didn't keep any form of guard up."" Koichi lectured for a moment as the guy shook his head in disbelief. ""Right now..."" Koich sai before turning to face another. They weren't smart enough to attack all at once. Even then it didn't matter too much. He smirked and moved forward. He seeped the guys leg quickly and moved to counter with a swift kick to the head, but stopped when something hit him square in the head.

""What the..."" He stumbled a bit as he looked down. It was a book... A fucking book! ""Who the hell throws a book in a-?!??"" He hosted before receiving a kick to te guy. ""Fuck..."" He coughed as another punched him in the face. That really made him mad. ""Alright that's it!"" He grit his teeth as he through a power left punch at the drago nearest to him. The force was enough to send him back quite a ways into a few desks. ""One down."" He said as he cracked his knuckles and went to work on the other three, the first one having regained his bearings.</div>"

The first one tried to attack Angelo with a chain but Angelo easily dodged it then he moved in close and elbowed the man in the ribs feeling the bones crack as he fell to the floor. Another one charged at him with a wood sword and Angelo used his aikido techniques to disarm him but putting him into a join lock making him drop it before Angelo flipped him onto his back. Then it was the third ones turn with a book of all things and Angelo dodged the book he tried to hit him with and Angelo said <font color=""green"">now the book was just sad</font> before Angelo round house kicked him making him hit a pile of books making him knocked out. Then the last one was shaking but he wasn't going to look like a punk in front of the boss so he charged Angelo regardless and as a result Angelo simply ducked down and hit his legs making him fall on his face knowing he broke the guys nose when he hit the floor hard like that. Then it was the bosses turn and he looked pissed...

<font color=""green"">leave him to me guys</font> Angelo told his comrades as he took his stance and waited for the leader to attack and he did. Unfortunately he actually had some mediocre skill when it came to fighting but he was more or less just boxing trying to hit Angelo with his punches. He got a few hits in against Angelo hitting him in the gut a few times making Angelo cough from the hits but Angelo dodged the strike that would have hit his head and went on the offensive. Angelo proceeded to use his combo: elbow to the chin, sweep his leg, then drop down and elbow his chest with raw force! Everyone conscious in the room could hear the bones cracking under Angelo strike as he coughed blood but he was still alive just broken ribs. Angelo helped him up and said <font color=""green"">Tell everyone what you saw here and tell the high dragons were coming</font> He nodded weakly and limped away with his tail between his legs and with the few guys that were still able to move left with him...</div>"

Apart from a few cuts, and bruises, she seemed to be alright. She looked around at the others to make sure they weren't seriously injured as well, and satisfied, she began to collect up the weapons the dragons had used, so that they would be out of their reach. 

As she collected books, she looked down at them, disguised. ""Using books as weapons, why go so far so as not to read books"" She shook her head, and carefully stacked them. So the wooden swords couldn't be used as weapons any more, she snapped them into pieces, and rolled up the chains, shoving them in a corner to be dealt with later. 

All the while she watched with wariness at the fallen Dragons, wary of any attack, or anyone simply playing possum. she untied her hair when it seemed the danger was passed, fingers trailing over her jaw, knowing it would bruise. Sometimes you had to let a blow land, in order to take your opponent down. She worked if for a moment, but was satisfied that it wasn't broken. She rolled her shoulders, but there didn't seem to be any damage from the chains. 

""Is everyone alright?""</div>"

Milo, your stlye's brutal man, Amy, you rock, Koichi, your guy's never stood a chance, and props to our leader Angelo here, he was vicious."" Jack was jumping in place, still pumping with adrenaline from the fight. He calmed down a little though when he remembered that he had a cut on his face from the sword, and that getting excited when you had a bunch if blood pouring out your face wasn't a good thing to do. ""And I'm  oretty sure everything's fine, just got a cut on my face and maybe lost a tooth or two."" JAck took a moment to swirl his tongue around his mouth, before shaking his head, ""Nah just the cut, but compared to some other wounds I've gotten it ain't that bad."" Jack's cut was on his cheek, and was bleeding rather profusely, but it was only a flesh wound and wasn't too deep.

Turning towards the fallen dragons, he helped Amy with the confiscation of their weapons, unable to kep from laughing at the guy's who had decided to use books of all things. He took all of them and put them in a corner, and if any of them voiced a complaint, quickly knocked them out with a blow to the head and tossed them towards the wall in a pile. Once he was done, he turned to the others, a slightly psychotic smile on his bloody face that was all too genuine. ""Oh man, this beats street fighting by a mile and a half, but we need to clean this place up a bit if we're going to use it as a base of operations. Hey Angelo, can you think of anything we might need, just tell me man and I can get it to you tomorrow at the latest.""</div>"

Koichi answered Amy's question calmly as he stretched a bit. Aside from a few bruises along his body, most covered up by his clothing, and a bloody nose which he had already begun to clean up and keep from continuing to cover the lower half of his face, Koichi was fine. He smiled as Jack handled the dragons. ""Honestly, this was a nice little warm up for my training later."" He chuckled as he spoke at an attempt to lighten the mood a bit. Sure it wasn't very tense, but after a fight, things were rarely calm. Angelo was back to business as usual. He had a plan which he let everyone know and even a bit of a name in mind. <span class=""bb-i"">Ascalon huh?</span> He thought for a moment before nodding with a small shrug. ""I suppose Ascalon works."" He chuckled as he sat back on a desk. ""I mean it's either that or something like Ragnarok."" He laughed at his own idea. He wasn't serious of course. He'd heard that somewhere. But really he didn't remember.</div>"

""I was going to suggest the Slayers, but I think your's is a much better and much more thought out. Anyway, I can get the cleaning supplies easy, and I can get you all something even better to go along with it. Since we are probably going to be on the dragon's hit list know, we need to-"" Jack stopped talking, looking at all of the still conscious and dragons for a second. He then began to knock each and every one of them out, and after he made sure they were out continued with his speech. 

""Sorry, didn't want them eavesdropping on this next bit. Anyway, what I'm suggesting is that we each need to keep in touch with each other, and I can get us all the best type of gear for that. My dad's company has these special types of phones that they give to special ops guys, they run on satellites signals, so unless your deep underground, you guaranteed service no matter where you are, their extremely durable, and are nearly impossible to hack, unless your a genius at that sort of thing. I don't think will have to worry about that from these guys."" Jack chuckled, before reaching into his pocket and pulling out the phone to show everyone. It looked like a slightly larger I-phone, with a black plastic casing. ""This is mine, modified so that it can be used as a smartphone at the cost of some of it's durability and what I suggest we all get. The camera is amazing good, for if we ever need to do recon on a place, and it won't look too out of place when we use it in public."" Jack finished with a smile as he pocketed the phone. ""It really pays off when your dad owns one of, if not the top tech company in the world. I'm sure you can guess which if you think about it.""</div>"

She was just happy they all seemed alright. After making sure there were no more weapons, sadly having to pat the dragons down and take any knives or other weapons. She didn't enjoy that, but it had to be done. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""The name is fine by  me""</span> She said, beginning to stretch some so her muscle wouldn't her, as well as to check for any pain. Not encountering any, she finished off her stretches, and looked to the  boys. 

She had gotten through the first part, she thought. Th hard part. These boys hadn't turned on her, hadn't tried anything. And she was grateful for that. She didn't want to be frightened of men. She swallowed, and looked away, in case any sign was on her face as to what she had been thinking. 

She sighed softly at Jack's boasting. <span class=""bb-b"">""I guess that is helpful. And something that will be useful, for whatever we do""</span></div>"

Unfortunately jack is only half right, a Gang as big as the dragons wont bother with us taking a small hideout and one of their underlings but they will start watching us from now on and wait to see when we become a real threat to their power. As for the super phones I say great work knowing we will have access to high quality tech might just make this endeavor a little easier especially if we can communicate quickly in case the dragons try to jump us or our families at any time. If dragons ever come near any of us we need to let the others know right away in case they are looking for a brawl. ill take mine in green.</font>Angelo said smiling a little glad they had someone with actual money that they could use to help fund the gang into becoming an actual threat to the dragons power. However they couldn't forget that they were still students and had to study like any other students including the time they needed to spend with their respective masters to get stronger and better to take one the high dragons later on...</div>"

""Right right."" He said calmly before rolling his shoulders. He was calm and happy. ""So I'll take mine in red Jack."" He laughed before slapping his new friend on the back. He opened his mouth as if to say more but quickly stopped when he caught a glimpse at the clock. ""Hey guys I think I should get going. I've gotta get a bite to eat and then head to meet with my masters."" He glanced at the dragons and sighed. So stupid... And kind of weak. He couldn't believe anyone would wanna be apart of such an idiotic group. Still, when given the option for power without the work many would choose it. ""Anyway... I don't know about the money and everything, but if you guys ever need a place to train and stuff. Get a little free work out with some pretty good equipment, my aunt and uncle run a dojo.

I need to help my dad, and then I have training too. I don't care what colour I have. Here's my number"" since Jack was closest to her, she handed it to him, ""Seeya guys later!"" She smiled, waved and then darted out the room, realising she was leaving the boys to clean up the dragons, but that couldn't be helped. She jogged back to the original classroom, grabbing her back pack, she started to her fathers book store, and home. 

She hummed as she walked, but looked around as she did, wary of attack and wary of retaliation. She began to make a list in her head, and as she headed into her fathers shop, she shed her jacket, throwing on the apron that had the bookstores name and logo on it, and began to serve customers. At closing a half an hour later, she gave her father a kiss, then darted up the stairs to their small apartment above the store, and to her room. Her room was dark, and electronics were speed across her desk, which took up one wall, and the corner so that the desk was an L shape. Three computers were on th desk, as well as multiple hard drives and other contraptions. 

She went over to her desk, and took out some money. Her father insisted on giving her a wage when she worked at the store. She took it only to make him happy. And then she made her way out, the money in her pocket, her phone in the other, as she headed to her masters place.</div>"

Here's my number too Jack."" He said handing the young man a paper before rushing off. The dragon's hadn't even crossed his mind, but he needed to hurry out to get back home on time. 

Koichi wasn't particularly later. But he was just barely on time. It was his aunts day to begin training as Ryo would be teaching Karate today. Thus while beginner classes began he was stuck doing her strenuous work routine. ""Faster! Don't be stupid! You're young! You should be able to handle at least this much!"" She would scold him when he tried to rest or stop before she said. The funny part was... This was her being lenient. ""No! I need to rest... I'm gonna diiiiiieee..."" His voice echoed as he spoke but continued working. 

After that he'd go down after a short break to be Ryo's training buddy and human example. He showed how to do the day's attack, grapple, etc. It was physically taxing, but in the end Koichi kind of enjoyed the training and he usually learned something himself.</div>"

Jack may end up being the communication network if it ended up that way, Angelo grabbed a few of the dragons and dragged them out of the building just throwing them by the bushes to let them wake up on their own, they would get the message that they were kicked out. 

Angelo went and grabbed his back in the classroom and left school he went over to his master's house knowing that he could hear the boom's and hit from down the street knowing that his masters were ""conversing"" again about something trivial and when he walked in he changed and just let them do their thing watching his mauy tai instructor take on his wife the akido instructor <font color=""red"">I told you the last damn time to quit leaving beer bottles over the sofa!</font> and as a result they were fighting it out and talking about their problem as they fought each other.

He had just taken Angelo's number, when he got a ring on his phone, he made a motion to their leader to let him know that he had heard and would do so, then took the call. ""Hello, may I ask who's calling"" Jack asked, as he never used caller ID, though the moment he heard who was on the other end, he started to reconsider that policy.

""Jack, where the hell are you, you were supposed to pick me up from your crummy apartment by now to take me to that new club."" 

""Bullshit Anastasia, I specifically told you that you can't go there. That's in dragon territory, and do you know what they'd do to you if they caught you. I fucking do, and you ain't going, that's final."" He ended the call before he could ehre his sister bitch at him, letting out a sigh. Great, now he was going to hear about how much of a terrible brother he was all night, how fun. Turning to the only other occupant left, Jack gave a wave good-bye. ""Later MIlo, I'll just out you down for black. and if you don't like it, we can get it changed tomorrow, and you heard the boss, be here at Lunch, or else I'm going to have to hunt you down, okay?"" WIth that, Jack left, making it home about an hour later to eat some home-made dinner, argue with his sister about what she was aloud to do and not to, which he one because she was struck under his roof until she decided to get a job and work for a living(So basically, forever), then went to bed after putting the entire apartment on lockdown. Something he had to do to keep Ansastasia from sneaking out. He could swear that dealing with that girl was going to give him grey hairs, if it hadn't already.

As Milo left he just sort of walked, he didn't have anywhere he really wanted to go. His home life had two parts, the drunk violent father beating the 2 younger kids, and the 2 younger kids always wanting something. So far he does have a system the 2 younger kids Jada (14) and Mary (12) spend most of the time at a friends house normally telling Milo before they go because of the fear their father put into them. Milo didn't work until 3am so he really didn't need to go anywhere.
So he sat on the sidewalk thinking about how much life was changing, it wasn't bad probably for the better to be honest. ""Oh well"" he thought. ""Guess I should find something to do,"" he said as he went back to wandering. ""Maybe I should check up on my sisters""</div>"

And she attacked quickly, moving swiftly, and in that same combination style of Karate and Krav Maiga. She landed a blow, dodged another, but got hit by a blow to the shoulder. 

She let out a hiss, and turned about, ducking under Troy's guard, and landing another blow. Troy grabbed her hands in a quick movement, and stopped her short. He held her hands in one hand, and gently ran his fingers along her jaw.

Now Angelo's body was tough and could withstand the heavy punches and elbows from his instructor...


The next day...

Angelo walked into the school the next day and gripped his chest lightly still feeling soreness from his ribs last night. However what Angelo really noticed was that he could feel eyes watching him he couldn't tell from where but if he looked one direction then it would seem like the people were ducking into hiding from him. Angelo was right they were watching him now and he wouldn't be surprised if the others were being watched now to, that just means that they got the dragons attention now however it means that the next move they make will cause all out war if it hurt them deep enough and that was exactly what Angelo was planning to do next as he walked into class and went about his work as usual...</div>"

One he arrived at the store, he collected the phones he had ordered. ignoring all the stares he was getting, as he looked like some hoodlum that was robbing the place, what with his jacket on over his uniform, and piercing blue eyes. Once he had the phones, he biked to school, and went to his classes as normal, taking little notice of all the stares being sent his way. He was used to be stared at, since his reputation on the streets was well known, and he had expected attention from the what they had done to the reapers. However, when one of the dragon wannabe's tried to mess with him, he was quick to remind them who they were messing with. he hadn't done anything to bad, and he put the fear of god into them to make sure they didn't say a word of what happened, so he went about the rest of the morning in relative peace.</div>"

She shrugged it into a good position, walking easily down the street, ignoring any looks from what she suspected was Dragons. She didn't care about them right then, as long as they didn't attack her. 

Going to the classroom they had taken yesterday, she took out a two paint cans, one white, the other black, and a paint brush. She painted the door white, doing two coats quickly, and then painted the name of the gang over the door in black. She closed the can, leaving them just inside the door, and when the door was dry, she removed the door knob and lock, repalying it with another one, she quickly installed a thumb scanner, putting her own in for now, until she could get the others. She had worked on that last night, into the early hours of the morning. Amy had a talent with technology, and one she often enjoyed. Basically, the key wouldn't turn until the print had been verified. She thought it was good. But it could easily be removed if need be. 

She began to clean out the weapons and things the Dragons had used, storing the chains in a cupboard, and tidying up basically. She then started towards class, a paint smear on her forehead, and fingers.</div>"

Early body trainin from his aunt before the freaking sun rose and a quick spar to make sure he was okay after yesterday. Roy was <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> gentle. After that he could shower and get ready. Luckily all his homework had gotten done that night. He wasn't in a scramble to hopefully make it on time. 

As Koichi left he noticed something. He was just walking but there was something... No... Someone. He sighed making his way to school. He was being watched. Never before had he been watched like this. He knew things would change, but this fast? 

Koichi was a bit unsettled. ""No way."" He mumbled. He just couldn't believe it. He was barely paying attention when he bumped into... Amy? ""Hm? Oh... Morning Amy."" He immediately noticed the paint smudges. ""We're you working o something?"" He asked a bit curious. He was acting rather casual despite being fairly aore. And even with the late night and early morning he looked rather energetic and cheerful as usual.</div>"

She gave a yawn, and looked down at her hands, the few smudges there. She gave a laugh and nkdded ""the door to the classroom, the base. I just thought...get rid of any evidence of the dragons, you know? Painted it. Made it...ours"" she said with a shrug, taking out a bottle of water from her pack, she began to wash her hands, getting the paint off her hands somewhat.

She looked at Koichi and smiled brightly, ""I think I must have had only a couple of hours sleep. I woke early to get it done, as well as a little bit of security, as a sort of...surprise for you guys"" she said, giving a shrug, ""I like doing stuff like that. I painted my dads book shop just last summer. And uped his security too. Can't be too careful"" she said. She realized she was just rambles, and blushed slightly.

""Um. Anyway. How are you today?"" She asked</div>"

Angelo looked out the window to see amy and koichi talking and Angelo smiled a little glad to know that they were getting to know each other so come to think of it Angelo really doesn't know the people he's fighting with. Considering they were going to take on a whole gang together it meant that they would need to trust each other so Angelo had to think of ways of doing that in a small amount of time, even though they went through the biggest obstacle off the bat of just fighting together they needed each other to know that everyone was going each other. Angelo didn't want to start a new form of dragons they needed a group that would be the shield of the people instead of the swords at their throats. Even though that sounded really cheesy it was true so maybe Angelo could try getting everyone to spar with each other after all koichi did offer to let everyone go to his dojo for sparring anyways, and if they went to Angelo's dojo then they would either be getting broken bones or getting concussed from the constant flips of his masters cause Angelo always was the losers punching bag and just imagine what would happen if the looser had more then one. Angelo literally felt the shiver up his spine at the thought...</div>"

That isn't good."" Koichi said calmly. ""You really should get more rest."" He clarified so she wouldn't think he meant the painting and the addition of security. ""Still that security stuff is pretty cool. I mean I couldn't do something lik that."" He chuckled calmly as he thought about it. It must have been tough to do all that alone.

She rolled her shoulders, and said ""we all have our talents. Mine just happens to lie in hacking, tracking and as a result, security. I can't really put up the good security in a few hours, but when I have time, I will. Did you notice the broken shelves, where the books probably came from? I was thinking of fixing them up, joining the desks together, and I've already brought white board markers for the white board, at least until we can get something electronic. Although Jack could probably get that easy"" she mushed, yawning towards the end of her words, and rubbing her eyes in an almost child like mannor. ""I'll be fine. I don't have training tonight. And schools easy anyway."" She smiled again.

Angelo sighed glad classes were finally over which meant it was time to meet everyone so he walked down to the abandoned classroom and he looked at their room or the door to be more specific. It had their name on it so it must have meant someone went the extra mile and decided to paint it, Angelo would have to thank them for it later whoever it was and what Angelo liked most was that while the name was black their were 5 different spears under it which could only mean that they were the 5 spears of Ascaleon, not a bad title if Angelo says so himself. Angelo tried to get in but apparently whoever painted must have also put in a DNA fingerprint scan to unlock the door. obviously Angelo tried and failed so it meant that whoever did this would have to unlock the door so Angelo decided to wait until the others came by...</div>"

She smiled, happy that her security worked, and grabbed a roll, heading to the classroom, happily jogging there. She walked down the hall way and seeing Angelo, said <font color=""#39b54a"">""hey! Sorry! I should have told you sometime today that I sset it up, need your thumb print""</font> She said, shifting her sandwich and drink, pressing her thumb to the thumb bad, she came in, <font color=""#39b54a"">""Here""</font> She said, handing him her phone, ""Press your thumb to the screen, I'll load it up in a minute"" 

She still had the paint smear on her forehead, but seemed oblivious to it, sitting down and opening her sandwich.</div>"

Still, now it was lunchtime. So maybe... Wait, there was no way she would still have the paint there. Right? He shook his head as he picked up something to eat and headed to the classroom. ""No way."" He chuckled before actually getting there. ""What's up guys?"" He asked Angelo and Amy before stopping as he saw the paint. ""Um... Amy? You still have some..."" He said motioning to his forehead. Of course, the hinting would be a bit too slow of an approach and she had that paint almost all day. He sighed and reached into his pocket taking out a napkin. He opened his new water and wet it before pulling her a bit closer. He began to wipe the paint off. Obviously the actions might have seemed weird or a bit overly friendly. Somebody might get the wrong idea. But he was just genuinely nice. A little to nice. The whole boundary things might come into question, but for right now he wanted to get rid of the paint.</div>"

When he approached the door, he saw Koichi leaning into to wipe some paint of off Amy's forehead, meaning that she was the one for the doors fresh new look. ""Wow, Koichi, how forward of you. Can't even wait a day before you make a move on the only girl in the group, have you no shame."" Jack spoke in an over-dramatic fashion, with his hand over his mouth and his eyes comically wide in mock shock, ""I had no idea we had such a womanizing Cassanova in our mist."" Jack mock fainted, falling backwards, only to do a quick handstand to prevent himself from hitting the ground, holding the pose for a short amount of time, before he finished the flip and landed on his feet. 

Smiling, he took a second to look at the door, more specifically the scanner, as he pulled out the box that had the phones in it, and held it out for everyone to collect their own. ""All jokes aside, I'm guessing Amy's the one who did the tech work here, I must say that you have done an excellent job with everything here. While tech stuff may not be my forté, you tend to learn a thing or to when your father's got the whole tech market under his thumb and expects you to follow in his footsteps. If you've ever got the interest, I'm sure that I can get you an internship at a local office, since scanners like these aren't that easy to make on you own. So bravo, madame, bravo.""</div>"

As he began to attack her forehead, she squirmed, trying not to just attack him. When Jack came in, she blushed at his comments, and looked away. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""you're lucky I cant slap you right now, Jack""</font> she said, shifting whenever Kiochi finished,'and rubbing her forehead with a hand. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""I need your thumb prints, guys""</font> she said as if nothing had happened, handing Kiochi her phone <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""on the screen,
I'll add it soon.""</font>

At the offer to offer her an internship, Amy looked over to Jack and said <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""the scanner wasn't that hard to make. You just have to see how, and I've had a lot of practice. I enjoy this sort of thing, and that makes it easier. Um. An internship sounds good, thank you""</font> could she actually do something with these skills? She looked over at Angelo as he said they should do an introduction thing, and shrughed <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""there's not much to tell about me. My mother died birthing me.

""I-it wasn't anything... I mean... There was paint..."" He couldn't properly form the explanation he was trying to give. That's probably why he gave up. ""Sorry about that."" He apologized to Amy for what was probably embarrassing for her more so than him. Jack certainly did nothing to help. Neither did Angelo for that matter. but it was all in good fun. He couldn't do anything else but sigh and press his thumb against the phone so his print could be taken and be entered by Amy. 

Next it seemed they were to give a little information about themselves. Amy seemed to begin. Not much. It was pretty casual, though it was sad to hear about her mother. She at least had her father and seemed pretty happy for the most part. After that he decided to give it a go. ""Well, as far as I go, I wanna take down the dragons. There's a lot of reasons. But aside from the moral ones, and the fact that they shouldn't be treated or act like they run the place any more, I want revenge."" He was a bit more serious when he said that, but left it there. he didn't feel like going deeper on the subject. Not yet anyway. Not when they had all just met. He was a nice guy, but he wasn't about to spill everything. Still, anyone here with a brain could probably figure it out if they did know anything else about him. Like how he lived with his aunt and unofficial uncle and helped out at their dojo.</div>"

""Amy, I'd much prefer a slap compared to the other kinds of threats I've recieved. You'd be surprised how many sore losers their are in street-fighting. This one guy threatened to stab me unless I threw the fight, Ididn't of course and next thing I know, bam, he freaking stabs me Man, that hurt like a bitch, and made me bleed quite a lot. Luckily, I was able to get to the hospital thanks to some of the more honorable fighters. Anyway, moving on to my life, it's simple. I was a kid who could have anything, and that made life boring, and it stayed that way until elementery school. That was when I got into my first real fight, and I had never felt so alive before that moment as I was then. After that, I had my dad get me a trainer, got good, went to the streets , built a name for myself in the street fighting ring, and finally moved out of my parents house into my own place."" As Jack spoke, he snuck next to Koichi and placed his thumb on the scanner. phone screen. 

""Amy, do me a favor and don't use this to steal money from my bank account, then my dad would be all over my ass?"" Jack said, his tone letting Amy now he was only joking.</div>"

Everyday its the same, something is happening to someone and other people just pretend they don't see anything. someone is getting mugged or extorted but nobody will even look to see if they can help. Can you blame them though? these streets are supposedly control by the street gang that goes by the name of ""the dragons"" obviously not an original name but it gets its point across, these people demand tribute from everyone and simply beat down whoever gets in their way. They say they fight to be their own people and be free but its just a load of bull they tell themselves to justify hurting people for their own gains. Nobody dares to go against them for fear of their retribution, they taint the very structure of their martial arts training by doing this. It is time to fight back, it is time to show the dragons that they cant do what they want without consequence, its time to protect these people and finally make our stand as true warriors of martial arts, are you with me! 

We are the fighters that shall bring honor back to the name of martial arts, and we will be the ones who will take them down and show them the true power of the people.

[hider=The gm's character]
Name: Angelo Ortega 

nickname (optional)= thor

age (highschool ages)= 19

looks= [img=http://ts1.mm.bing.net/th?&amp;id=HN.608024712114733431&amp;w=300&amp;h=300&amp;c=0&amp;pid=1.9&amp;rs=0&amp;p=0[/img]

personality= a hard worker Angelo always believed that he would be at the top one day and help people that are less fortunate. Angelo hates bullies and thugs and believes in helping people rather then hurting them. Angelo never would have expected that he would lead a gang but people tend to follow Angelo whteher it was because Angelo was naïve in thinking of being a person who helps others no matter what or because he just a generally nice guy with good intentions. Angelo values honor more then anything when it comes to a fight even to his enemy he will show honor in the beginning and end of the fight.

history= Through most of his life Angelo was considered a push over and although he was larger then most kids his age he was a weakling when it came to an actual fight but that never really bothered Angelo because he was tough and handled their punches with ease. Angelo lived life as best he could knowing people never really respected him or thought they could look at him as anything more then a joke ""a guy so big can be brought down so easily"" was what they usually said. Angelo was okay with it at least until one day when people came to him on his way home from school and ""offered"" their protection in exchange for a sizable sum of cash, obviously Angelo refused not wanting or needing protection but they did their homework and they knew Angelo was considered a weakling and they started to beat down on Angelo relentlessly and without remorse until Angelo couldn't stand they stole his money anyway. 

Angelo may have gotten beaten up before but never to this degree, Angelo eventually woke up in a strangers house being bandaged up and cleaned. Angelo tried to get up but his wounds were still hurting then a woman came in, she looked beautiful as she told Angelo to keep still. soon the man of the house came in and it looked like Angelo was going to get attack by this giant! Angelo slowly backed his way into the cornor of the bed but she just laughed a little knowing why Angelo looked scared and she explained that he was the one who found Angelo and took him back to his home and that they were married. As the man walked in he looked like he was examining Angelo and he offered Angelo training to make sure he didn't get beat up like this again. Although Angelo agreed almost immediately he started to feel an evil presence from both of them. 

From that day on Angelo continued their rigorous training and Angelo would soon fight to protect people and make sure that what happened to him never happens to anyone else ever again....

your fighting style= muay thai and Aikido

your strengths= use of his elbows and knees give him great strength in his attacks, is an intelligent planner , can defend against clubs and wooden swords

weaknesses= naïve about his opponents honor and therefore is able to fall for foul play easier, cant lie very well and will only fool a fool
your master(s) (the one who taught you your martial arts)(optional but highly recommended)= master masaki huedo (muay thai teacher) and master skirika hudeo (the wife and teaches aikido)

your masters history (this is optional)= Masaki Huedo was a traveling fighter for a time back in his day fighting in illegal circuits that allow death in the ring, he wanted a real challenge and nobody in the ring was able to give it to him so he traveled looking for great fighters to give him the challenge he wanted and soon he ended up in a small village, obviously his reputation preceded him and a woman from a clinic came to the bar and challenged him to a fight. At first he laughed saying that she must be joking, all it took was for her to break the table he was eating on with a single chop to prove she was a fighter. He sighed and took her challenge outside in the street where everyone clamored to see, he thought it would be a fast fight but once they got into it, it turned out be the fight he has been looking for. They fought all day until nightfall when they both became tired and they called it a draw before sitting down. soon after they fell in love with eachother and married moving to the city.

*Not as muscly as in the pic, but the scars are still real

Name: Milo Cash 

nickname (optional)= The Phoenix (even if he gets his ass beat he gets up)

age (highschool ages)= 15

personality= Milo ""The Phoenix"" Cash is actually a pacifist hating the fighting but knowing right now its worth it. He won't be the first to swing, and may not throw a punch in an entire fight... but he'll happily break your arm. Other than that he is relatively chill not letting anything major bother him. The only thing that can break his chill attitude is harming someone he is protective of

history= Milo was bullied starting at a young age, and no one protected him. From here the bullying grew to assault which led to many injuries even putting him in critical condition on one occasion, so he learned to protect himself. His first fight after learning to do what he does led to 3 arms being broken in sequence, and Milo stood there with a smile on his face. He learned to control the bloodlust he got from the fighting, forcing himself into a form of pacifism in fear of the beast inside, but now as times grow hard he knows he has to stand up and join the fight but he wont throw the first punch, but he will break the last arm

your fighting style= Eagle, Open Hand
  
your strengths (can have up to 3)= Determination, agility, precision power (not over all strong but when he needs to apply pressure like to break an arm he puts the part into a position so it is under stress and puts puts an insane amount of pressure to one point causing it to break) 

your weaknesses (must have 2)= Protectiveness, Not very strong overall, Often times distracted

your masters= Some Random youtube videos he used to get the basic techniques before working on some of his own</div>"

Koichi stands at 5'6"" weighing about 140lbs. While he does often give off the appearance of a scrawny, and weak high schooler of average standing he is actually <a href=""http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac159/bryan_vega1/Combat%20males/karate_shoukoushi_kohinata_minoru_render_by_shadowaceblade-d4ysvfu_zpsf82a0d8f.jpg"">quite well defined</a> under his clothing due to rigorous training by his masters.</div>
Name: Koichi Nakamura
Nickname: {I can't think of one...}
Age: 18
Personality: Koichi is for the most part a kind hearted person. He is easy to get along with, and has this thing about protecting those who cannot protect themselves. It is likely because of this reason that he follows Angelo. Still aside from taking down The Dragons, he has his own goals. Some at least. He just doesn't have anything specific as of yet. Overall all though, he is loyal and extremely protective of his friends and family. To a fault even. In some cases even to those he barely knows if he feels he can trust them or if it means protecting someone who cannot protect themselves. 
History: The beginning of Koichi's life had been relatively simple and fine. He had no complaints. He figured things would go on like this for quite some time. However, he was wrong. He was so wrong. Around the time he was 5, he lost his parents. There wasn't some accident. It wasn't like they died an fools death. They were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. He watched it happen. He was powerless as his father and subsequently his mother were both killed before him, by a small group of members of the Dragons. He was an orphan as a result of this of course, but there was hope for him. His grandparents wouldn't be able to raise him, but he had an aunt. She'd been alerted of his situation very quickly and was quick to make her way back home. It was here she settled down to raise him with her partner. 

The two adults opened a small dojo. They taught martial arts, but for sport. Not for real battle. However, that wasn't to say Koichi would learn. He spent the next two years getting over his parents death and adjusting to his new life. One doesn't simply forget a tragedy such as the one he witnessed, but he'd more normally adjusted. The problem is, he'd begun getting into fights. He wasn't bullied per say. He simply attempted to interject in the bullying of others and ended up getting ganged up on and beaten a lot. His aunt urged him to give it up and try to lead a simple life. However, he refused. She didn't begin to teach him anything though. It was the man, Ryoichi Saito who began to teach him. He didn't intend of doing much more than simple self defense karate techniques. And that was more or less it. Until he had to deal with Kaede when she found out after Koichi got in trouble for beating up one of the bullies. Of course, it was for good reason, but in the eyes of the school violence was violence.

After this, Kaede did in fact agree to train Koichi along with Ryoichi. Of course, compared to Ryoichi who would hurt Koichi by accident during training and generally had good reason in his teaching techniques, Kaede was a spartan. Hellish training in and out by the two people who would go from being his caretakers to his masters. Since then his strength, stamina, speed, all the training of his physical abilities and the sheer basics of each style have been driven into him and still are being driven into him. Things get harder and more hellish, but he has yet to be allowed to move on. Ryoichi and Kaede had both decided that he could get by with petty bullies and the like with his skills. They continue to training him so he doesn't slack off, but they rarely give any higher level or newer techniques. They simply continue to improve on, and add various basic abilities to, his arsenal. And thus, Koichi is where he is today. 
Your fighting style: Karate &amp; Jujutsu 
Your strengths:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Due to his training, nearly 30% of Koichi's muscle is comprised of pink tissue. He possess a fairly good mix of strength and durability coupled with speed and stamina. It is higher than that of the average adept martial artist, but by no means perfect.</li><li>Koichi possesses great reflexes coupled with high flexibility and agility.</li><li>Koichi is can adapt to various situations which is very good when plans fall through.</li></ul>
Your weaknesses: 
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Koichi's kindness and honorable outlook towards battle is somewhat of a downfall as an enemy can readily take advantage and trick him easily if they do not share his honorable teachings.</li><li>Despite his notable aptitude for martial arts Koichi has yet to be allowed to advance past the basics. Thus, higher level techniques, or tricks pose various problems for him if he cannot predict them.</li><li>Koichi has made a vow to follow the path of the ""Saving Fist"" (Katsujinken for Kenichi fans) and never take the life of another. Thus, he fights to subdue his opponent and no more. It is easy for others who are willing to kill to take advantage of this.</li><li>Because most people he fights are larger than him, IE his senseis and most power hungry jerks he's faced happened to be larger, he has a severe lack of skill in dealing with low attacks or smaller opponents.</li></ul>
Your master(s): <a href=""http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac159/bryan_vega1/Combat%20males/5b614628430b74f4411828f88b98677f_zps906257ea.jpg"">Ryoichi Saito</a> &amp; <a href=""http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac159/bryan_vega1/Combat%20females/86f391d1e375191a589fab5325a5787e_zpsb962d18f.jpg"">Kaede Nakamura</a>
Your master's history: Kaede Nakamura in her youth had gotten into some hairy situations. From the time she was 7 to the time she was 10 she had a bad habit of getting into fights. Often it'd be to protect her younger sister, but sometimes it was just for the sake of fighting. Boys, girls, she beat the crap out of them all if she felt they deserved it. It was around the time she was ten though, that she met a man. This man had caught her in the middle of a rather violent rampage. He easily subdued her and brought her home forcibly. He explained to her parents that he believed it best that she learn to control this temper and find an outlet to use it. And so, against her will he began to train her. It worked out considerably as she became the woman she is today. 

Of course, it took more than just that. It also took her travelling the world and meeting a fellow martial artist, by the name of Ryoichi Saito. His story was of a different variety. He'd been trained and disciplined since the day he could walk. He was different from her, but a like. The two instantly became friends and as time progressed, more. Though they never officially married they did eventually settle down when the news of Kaede's sister reached them. And like that they were thrust into lived they'd been completely unprepared for. The rest is, as they say, history.</div>"

personality=  
Amy is a Kind hearted young woman. She is quite and shy, often not drawing any attention, but she can have a bit of a temper, which has got her in trouble before. Still, she hates seeing others being hurt, and refuses to admit defeat. She will stand up for anyone she thinks needs it, 

history=  
Amy was born two months early. Her mother had complications birthing her, and though doctors did all they could, she died of an infection. Amy was in hospital for six weeks, her father never leaving her side. 

She grew fast, and became healthy quickly, yet she was always small for her age. At 18, she was barely five foot one. She has a small frame, thin, and appears frail when in fact she isn't. 

She took dance lessons, and graceful, as well as flexible, she soon became an impressive dancer. One day, when she was 14 and walking home, she was set upon by some gang members, the dragons. Terrified, and fearful that they would rape her,
She fought back, and only got away by kicking one of them, albeit accedentially, in a very sensitive spot. Fast for her size, she dartwd away, but could hear them following her. 

She ran into a large, dark skinned and scary man. He caught her, and for one terrifying moment, she thought he was part of the gang, but then he pushed her behind him, and faced the boys. 

She wasn't too sure what had happened, but the boys ran away with their tails between their legs.

And from that day forward, the man taught her how to fight.

nickname (optional)=  

age (highschool ages)= 18

looks= He is around 5'11, with messy, dirty blonde hair and five o'clock shadow. His eyes are blue(red when awakened and using his powers), he has a medium frame, lean muscle, and wears a standard biker outfit, but with a few alterations. The jacket bears a wolf on the back, with the words 'The strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the back'. His gloves have a metal plate on the back, and his boots have silver inlays on them, depicting wolves running in a hunt.

personality= He's an adrenaline junkie, doing anything and everything to feel the rush. He choses things to do based on whats exciting, and that means that he sometime gets in trouble with the law, but never on anything major. But despite all of that, his major life goal is quite tame. He wants to settle down, find his soulmate, and start a family, be a family man, and live out the rest of his days in peace. He has a strong set of values, which is why him and his sister get into a lot of conflict about how she behaves. He doesn't try to stop her, that would just make things worse, but he reminds her that she's going to have to grow up sometime, so she better do it now, before it's to late.

He has a strained relationship with his parents, since they want him to follow in their footsteps, but he doesn't want to be rich, seeing it as boring to have everything he could ever want handed to him on a silver platter. He keeps all the money his parents send him in an emergency account, barely touching it as he prefers to make his own money, whether it be from street fights or from his part-time job at a local gas station store.

Uumm
He was a reknowned fighter and almost went pro. However, one night he was attacked while in a bar.He didn't want to fight and even trying to leave, but he ended up having to defend himself. In doing so he accidentally killed a man. He thought he was knocked out. A day later he was locked up and charged with manslaughter. Went to prison. Got out. Tried living peacefully. Met and saved a young girl. Began to teach her. And here we are.

Ascalon, the spear that St. George used to kill the dragon

Gram, the sword that Odin struck into the Branstock tree which only Sigmund the Völsung was able to pull out. It broke in battle with Odin but was later reforged by Sigmund's son Sigurd and used it to slay the dragon Fafnir. After being reforged, it could cleave an anvil in half.

So maybe something incoporating those names, or the names of something else used to kill dragons.</div>"

He suffered severe depression and OCD from the ages 11-15, which resilted in multiple suicide attempts, one being nearly succesful. After a month of hospitalization and medication testing he returned to the real world recovered. He had been quite a liberal up until his 16 birthday, but around that time converted fully to traditionalism and national socialism. He began drinking in his youth, which has only progressed up to know, he is a severe alchoholic with a history of drug abuse but has been clean from everything but liqour and nicotine for the last several years. He met Alex through college, he was being put through a six month training seminar to become a licensed and official Plummer.</div></div>"

Alastair Eirwen

18

Alastair is the polar opposite of his twin. He is not afraid to speak his mind and tell you what he thinks of you. He can be very feisty and has a bit of a temper. Only his sister has any hope of really calming him down. That said, Alastair is very protective of his sister though he does like to tease her from time to time. 

The twins came from a dysfunctional family. Their mother was always out with another guy and their father laid around all day drunk. Alastair always took the worst of the beatings curtsy of their father but Autumn has been on the receiving end of the mans fist as well. The twins were forced to grow up quickly and learn how to fend for themselves. They both got jobs when they were old enough so they could make money and to get out of the house. They both worked very hard and managed to graduate High School and enter college. They both lived on campus and got jobs there to help pay for school. Autumn got a job at the campus coffee shop and Alastair got a job helping get the grounds maintained.</div>

Autumn Eirwen

18

Autumn is a very shy and caring girl. She is rather clumsy however and trips over her feet more often than not. She blushes and becomes embarrassed very easily and she is also very sensitive and easy to upset. She is very self-conscious about herself and not all that confidant. She tries to hide her feelings from people because she doesn’t want them to worry. A lot can be hidden behind one of Autumn’s smiles. Only Alastair is able to see through Autumn’s fake smiles and he always knows when something is wrong with her.

Age (18-22): 21
 
Appearance: <img src=""http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj3/kathstahh/untitled-1.jpg""/>
  
Personality: Gideon is very outgoing and overprotective of his younger sister. He love a good laugh but is always ready to punch you in the face if you mess with his friends or family. He can have a short fuse at times, but he rarely gets mad. He seems not to be afraid of anything, but he always seems to be avoid snakes...
  
Bio: Gideon and Gwyn kind of grew up in a broken home. Their mother was always working and their father was a drunk. Gideon mostly protected Gwyn from his father, but once he went off to college, he knew that something bad would happen. And something did. One night, while Gwyn had slammed her door shut and locked her door against her father, who had proceeded to advance on her sexually, her mother came home. Her father then went after her mother with a steak knife that he found in the kitchen, screaming at her that it was all her fault that Gwyn didn't want to sleep with him. Gwyn ran after him after that and tried to protect her mother. She was stabbed and nearly bled to death. Gideon heard about this on a sobbing phone call from his mother. He went home immediately and found that his father had been arrested for assault and Gwyn was in the hospital. After that, he put off his education until Gwyn graduated from high school and he forced her to come with him back to his school. 

Name: Gwyneth (Gwyn) Blackwell

Age (18-22): 18

Appearance:<img src=""http://data2.whicdn.com/images/77935258/large.jpg""/>

Personality: Gwyn is a very quiet and shy girl. She tries to stay out of the crowd, but it's really hard when her brother is one of the most liked people on campus. She always tends to have her nose in a book and always seems to be reading. She loves quiet places and doesn't seem to get angry very often. She hates that her brother is over protective of her, but she also loves him for it.

Age:19

Appearance: <img src=""http://resources0.news.com.au/images/2014/09/01/1227043/492708-5844f976-30af-11e4-a639-0fb2d2d716a3.jpg""/>

Personality: John is anything but boring. He parties a lot for sure. You can always count on him to be the first one on the dance floor. But he's also extremely creative and intelligent, always thinking up a new idea, or contemplating old ones. He's protective of his little sister, but he treats her more like a friend and an equal than his little sister.

Bio: John was born into a house where art was commonplace. His mother was a musician and his dad was an actor, as well as a painter. But his parents didn't force art upon him. He found it on his own, the day he picked up a camera and began to film. He discovered that that's what he wanted to do, and his parents showered him with gifts. His sister was born a year after he was and they were the best of friends, doing most everything together. When his sister got accepted to the same college as him, they celebrated big time, ecstatic that what their parents called, ""Team Trouble,"" was reunited.

Name: Lilly Marshall

Age: 18

Personality: Lilly is your typical ""starving artist."" She's smart, liberal, and opinionated. She'll tell you how it is, and she does what she likes. But she's also fiercely loyal, and she wouldn't ever think of betraying a friend, or her brother. She loves her brother and sometimes considers him her best friend, since they're so close in age.

Bio: Lilly has always been the rebel of her family. Her dad always said that she took after her mom. And her mom would smile and laugh and say that she took after her dad. Lilly would then smile and laugh because she knew her parents had done worse things than go to parties when they were told not to. So maybe she isn't the biggest rebel in her family. But she is compared to her brother. When Lilly was two she fell in love with painting and since then she has never been seen without a brush on her person. She got into school on a scholarship and was ecstatic that she would be going to her brother's college.</div>"

He sat idly scribbling on his notepad. The professor was giving a lecture about human organs and their vitality to the human body. Things he knew already. His head rested in his hand as h stared into space- not even looking at what he weird creations had been scribbled onto the paper. Suddenly the bell rang. There was multiple scrapes as everybody rose out of their seats. He was among them. He walked out of the class and through the rioting halls. He stepped outside. The fresh air instantly hit him in the face. He took a few steps forward and looked for one of his friends. Well, he was friends with everyone. He looked for one of his actual friend he usuaully hangs out with.</div>"

The teacher was explaining the current piece of art displayed on the projector, a sculpture made by the Greeks. She was explaining the difference between a Low-Relief and a High-Relief. Autumn glanced down at the neatly written notes then up at the screen, making sure she had spelled everything correct and hadn't missed anything. Then bell rang, cutting the teacher off as she looked at the clock in annoyance. She waved them off and the students got up, collecting their things and leaving the room. Autumn hugged her books to her chest as she exited the room, making her way through the halls. She eventually reached the outside and sat down on a bench where she normally waited for Alastair. She took out her sketch-pad and began working on her current drawing, a hand drawing a picture of a hand that was drawing a picture of a hand etc. It went on and on until the hand was very tiny. She brushed a piece of hair behind her ear as she looked up, spotting Alex a little ways away. Autumn has never really spoken to him much but he was friends will Alastair. Speaking of her brother, he was late.

Alastair listened to the Algebra professor drone on and one about functions. He wrote down the notes on the board, trying his best not to yawn as the seemingly never-ending lecture continued. He was relieved when the bell rang and had almost made it to the door before the professor called him back. Annoyed, the boy turned to see what the man wanted. After a few minutes of listening to the professor praise him on his performance, Alastair was at last waved off and he made his way through the hall, irritated that the professor had made him late in meeting up with his sister.</div>"

He stares at the clock. Just a little longer until he could get out of here and make sure that his sister made it through the day. He lets out a sigh of relief when the bell finally rings and he hops up, grabbing his backpack. He jogs toward the exit, ignoring the girls that paw and wink at him. He jogs out to the central yard and begins to look around for her.

Gwyn didn't have a class for the end of the day. Her classes end earlier in the day. She walks slowly, staring down at the book in her hands. Enraptured in the perfect detail of a battle scene, she does not pay attention to where she is going and runs straight into Alex. She falls back down on her bottom, the book sent flying from her hands and her glasses, which are normally perched up at the very top of her nose, fall off her face and a few feet away. She doesn't hear a crack from any lenses, but she scrambles to try and find them. She is very blind without her glasses. She feels goofy now, considering the fact that she probably looks like Velma from Scooby Doo looking for her glasses.</div>"

He had just returned to the campus from a day of glorified slave labor, they liked to call it ""on the job education"", when in reality, he worked the same shit he already knew, but only got paid around 3.75 an hour to do it. He smelled of WD-40 and had pipe-grease stains on his pants, boots, shirt, and flannel, as well as a big smudge on his forehead he was completely unaware of. He put a cigarette in his mouth as he looked for Alex, lighting it as he spotted him.

He went through the same routine everyday, worked all day for the universities shit-head maintenance crew, unclogging sinks, fixing toilets, and occasionally maintaining the multiple water heaters. Then he would find Alex, they'd hang out, maybe have a beer or two, he'd go home, get absolutely shitfaced off of fireball, and go to bed.</div>"

He looked up at the clock by the door and...RING...the rest of the class bolted, and John followed closely behind, excited to finally be done with classes for the day. As he left the building and walked outside, breathing in the fresh air as he did and running a hand through his blonde hair, a sign that he was exhausted from the day. He spotted one of his friends, Alex. He walked over to him and once he got closer he waved and said, ""Hey bro,"" right as Gwyn ran straight into Alex.</font>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<font color=""red"">Lilly had skipped class. She had gotten up in the morning, had put a canvas on her easel and had begun painting, stopping once she realized she was late for her first class and then starting up again, deciding that she would just paint the day away. She finally finished and stepped back, admiring her work. The painting was of a blue flower that Lilly had sketched one day. She didn't think it was a particular flower, but Lilly wasn't exactly a botanist, and she figured she could have pulled the idea from a flower she had seen one time. She wiped the paint off of her hands onto an already paint stained shirt and walked outside, her hair tangled and messy. She took a breath of fresh air and figured that the last class of the day must have gotten out based on the traffic. She went on her way, looking for her brother, or one of her friends.</font></div>"

She picks up her book and looks at Alex, fumbling over her words a little bit. ""I-I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going."" Her face burns with embarrassment and she begins to tug at her hair nervously. She notices John walk over and she blushes even darker.

Gideon walks out of the school at the moment that Gwyn falls to the ground. He rolls his eyes but is worried. His sister can be a klutz at times, but he wasn't worried for her safety. She ran into Alex, one of the most passive guys at this school. He smiles at her as he jogs up. ""Hey Alex. You alright Gwennie?""</div>"

He walked towards Alex, and clamped his hand on his upper wrist. It was a handshake he used for anyone he considered kin, and Alex definitely fell into that category. Alex was a pretty passive guy, so more often then not he would get walked all over. When that happens, Micah is normally the guy to smash their teeth in, it hasn't had to happen in a while, which is a good thing, it means people have started to show Alex the respect he deserves.

""How are you brother?""
He asked in a bit of a grunt, his voice was pretty deep, and he didn't use it much Unless he was with Alex</div>"

He made his way over to her, his shadow falling over her sketchpad and making her look up. She smiled at him, setting down her pencil. <font color=""#9966cc"">""How was Algebra?""</font> She inquired with a tilted of her head. Alastair groaned as he dropped onto the bench next to her. <font color=""red"">""Brutal.""</font> He replied, Autumn giggling slightly at the exasperation in his voice. Alastair looked over and spotted Alex. He stood, stretched, then made his way over after waiting for Autumn to stand. <font color=""red"">""Hey Alex.""</font>  He called as they got closer. 

Autumn followed after her twin, struggling to pack away her sketchpad. Suddenly, she stepped on an untied shoelace and tumbled forward, landing harshly on her knees and shoulder, her sketchpad flying out of her hands and landing next to Alex. Alastair whirled and hurried over to his sister who was slowly raising to her hands and knees. He knelt next to her, examining her. Both knees were scraped and bloody, the shoulder she landed on bleeding and already beginning to bruise. Alastair sighed, shaking his head as his sister's clumsiness.</div>"

He looked back at Micah and John and was about to say something when Alastair and Autumn approached. ""Hey!"" He said again. Just as he said this, Autumn had fell. ""Wow all the girls are tripping over me today eh?"" He joked. He became serious again. ""You alright? You should probably get that washed and put some hand soap over it. Trust me, it helps"" he told her.</div>"

He then noticed that everyone who had a sibling at school, was with their sibling right then and he began to wonder where Lilly was. ""God damn it, if Lilly skipped class again,"" he muttered aloud, not really intending to speak. Just then he heard a sarcastic voice sound off behind him, asking him what he'd do if she had skipped class again. He turned to look at her and gave her a slightly angry gaze that he couldn't really hold because he knew deep down that his sister would do whatever the hell she wanted, and he couldn't do anything about it.</font>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<font color=""red"">Lilly finally spotted her brother and their friends not that far away from her. She smiled and made her way over, not worrying about the fact that she was a paint stained mess. As she came up behind her brother she heard him mutter about how he was gonna be pissed if she had skipped class again. She smirked and said, ""Oh let's be honest here brother. What're are you going to do if I did skip class?"" she asked as she placed her arm on his shoulder and leaned on him, playfully shoving him every now and then.

""I'm alright,"" she says ignorantly, brushing herself off. She sneaks a quick peek at Alex before grabbing her book once more and continuing to read again. Gideon rolls his eyes and turns to look at the others who have just showed up. 

""How was class?"" he asks Alex, knowing that it will be the exact same answer as yesterday.</div>"

He eventually clarified that his parents were leaving and he would have the house to himself. <font color=""red"">""A party? Sure, I don't have to work so I'm free.

<font color=""red"">Lilly jumped up and down in excitement when Alex suggested a party at his place. ""YES I AM SO IN!"" she shouted, drawing a few glances from passerby. Parties were her scene and it was even better that her brother agreed to come.

In fact, it's an almost exact replica of it. The only difference is that the Mirror World looks like it was destroyed a long time ago. Buildings are destroyed, cars lay scattered;  crippled from time and neglect. There was no sign of life. At least, not during the day. As night falls creatures begin to show up. The <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Ovo-Kuvn</font></span>. The Ovo-Kuvn is a large family of various creatures. They all shared the same type of skin. A rugged, black skin type- allowing them to be perfect hunters in the night. These creatures vary in forms and shapes. Some are human-like; with various mutations such as blades replacing an arm and such. Others are mainly Kuvn counterparts of normal animals.

Alex's dad brought home a mirror one day. A seemingly harmless mirror. It hung on their living room wall. Just above the fireplace. Alex decided he'd bring a few of his friends over for a small party while his parents were out and things start to get out of hand. The mirror ends up being knocked off and that's when things go wrong. They were sucked into the mirror world and left to fend for themselves with no idea as to what is actually going on. Soon they uncover dark and dangerous plots that could be fatal for Earth and they're the only ones who can stop it.

So basically the rp is set in America (I actual have no idea where about though...). You're playing as a college kid who comes round to Alex's house. The rp will start just before the end of the college day to allow people to get into their characters. The rp will be set in 2015 and will probably mirror our world as close as possible for extra realism.

Personality: She doesn't use emotion at all, she can be very cold hearted and fierce. 
Bio: Sara was born a vampire, and has always been apart of the vampires. At first she declined the idea of having the kidnapping of children, but accepted it over time, because it needed to be done. She is the daughter of the Kawasaki family, where they have lived for many generations. She is a great fighter, always remaining calm in combat with her emotionless face. She has an older brother who is in the high ranks of the army, while she merely sits back and makes heart wrenching strategies. Sara can also be referred to as ‘The Lady Who Speaks Death’. Also Sara does not hesitate to kill a human, and can go overboard sometimes, ending in a massacre. Though she has her weakness, she cannot kill a vampire, even one who was originally a human.

Name: James Hunter
Age: 17
Gender: male
Species: Human(sort of)
Personality: James is a bit of a hermit. He only really leaves his house he's hiding out in to get food, or to make discreet attacks against vampires, the only trace of him ever leaving his house being a couple dead vampires in the street.
Bio: Nobody really knows anything about him, because he lives in hiding, but apparently they tried turning him when he was younger and it didn't work for some reason. He's immune to vampirism, and his blood burns on when they drink it. 
Side: Neither. He's fighting the vampires, but the rebellion disproves of his methods so he's not a part of it directly.
Weapon: Through trial and error, he managed to make a <a href=""https://craphound.com/images/TpjfA.jpg"">chainsaw katana</a>. He'll also use other weapons occasionally, but he prefers practicality over conventional weapons.</div>"

(Ignore minigun please)
Name: Grimm R. Kibishi
Age: Looks 14, technically 81
Gender: Female
Species: Turned Vampire
Personality: Grimm is very sadistic and sarcastic. She is also very cutesy-like and likes to do things her way, she doesn’t let that make her forget to be tactical though. Half of the time she can be convinced out of doing things her way, but she’ll be disappointed and pout. The other half of the time however, when she <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> wants something her way, she will do whatever it takes to get her satisfaction. Even if she has to kill another vampire, she will not hesitate. Also, if someone were to call her by her real name (however they would know that) then Grimm’s demeanor will completely change into a serious, cold look with an icy glare.
Bio: Approximately sixty-seven years ago, at the age of fourteen, Grimm was attacked and turned into a vampire, or in other words blooded, in the middle of the night out on the streets. At this day and age, Grimm was a different person. She was nice, sweet, and innocent, so she panicked. She didn’t see from her attacker again, nor did she see his or her face. The next day she went home still panicking, she told her parents what had happened and to calm her down they assured her everything would be alright. It wasn’t that long after everything had been settled until her bloodthirst got the best of her to the point where she couldn’t control herself and fed on her parents, killing them. With blood all over and terrified, she couldn’t stand the fact that she did this and what she had become. She disappeared to elsewhere, traumatized by herself. 
Four years pass as Grimm lives off alone with nowhere or no one to go to, away from cities or towns and practically just living around a forest. She didn’t dare to see another person let alone feed off of them preferring animal blood, she truly hated herself. Within these years she had adapted to the vampire qualities forced upon her. Before she knew it, she was found by a wandering group of humans who meant no harm. Either way Grimm tried everything to get away from them to the point of avoiding eye contact, but it was no use and they insisted that she should come with them since she was all alone. Grimm reluctantly agreed to do so as she remained on edge. All went pretty well for the next few months. Grimm was able to control herself and they accepted her, until they found out she was actually a vampire. She got caught red-handed when she was in a situation needing to be fed, then feeding on one of them. They tried to kill her, and she fought for her life. The closest the small group of humans got to killing Grimm was the stabbing of her left eye with a needle. Other than that, Grimm has to kill them all reluctantly. It was that day, when something snapped inside of her that makes her the person today and when she started going by the alias: Grimm R. Kibishi. Her real name? She doesn't tell a soul. 
Later on Grimm would join a group of vampires that work a system of kidnapping children and training them and such, working either obediently or doing what she wants.

Name: Akira Miyazawa

Age:Looks to be 27

Gender: Male

Species: Human?

Personality: Akria is often stealthy and rarely speaks unless spoken to. He's very fast for a human.....a little to fast. Fast thinker and has a serious attitude. He doesn't like war so he'd do anything to stop it from happening.

Bio: Akria works in the dark. People say he might be a vampire, but he has been seen killing other vampires so this could be false. He's also been seen killing humans. On both of these encounters it was actually self defense , he could be on any side of the fight. Truthfully from time to time he'd leave his home and visit local vampires to see if he could at least form a sort of an agreement on his and their alliance. 

Side: Neutral

He was wearing his old general's coat and grab his sword just in case the vampires wouldn't listen to reason. After he was a few miles away from his home five human soldiers surrounded him armed and ready to fight.""Akria! Give up and turn yourself in you enemy scum!"" One of the soldiers shouted.""They sent five this time. Tsk tsk tsk I thought they expected more from a general."" Akria whispered under his breath. Two of the three charged at him aiming for his vitals. Akria unsheathe his sword instantly and then sheathe it again. The two soldiers now lie dead on the ground both decapatated. The other three soldiers took on step back and starred at Akria with discuss.""Y-Your a monster!"" One of the soldiers shouted. ""Retreat!"" Another one could be herd saying."" Sorry fellas ,but I have to keep my rep....which means you guys don't escape alive."" Akria unsheathe his sword and took one step toward. The three soldiers started to run in other direction as fast as they could ,but sadly knew it was all pointless when Akria appeared in front of them with his back turned towards them and his sword unsheathe. All three of them fell to the ground cut completely in half at the torso.""Pathetic....what's the whole point of this war?"" Akria tiltied his hat to the corspes and continued towards the vampires base.""I hope the vampires listen to reason....if they don't I'll just have to kill them as well.""</div>"

He said, grumbling to himself, soon he reached a small river.

Yes, it was just another bland feeding. Same old typical taste, but Grimm couldn't help but smirk. Her smirk gives off just a tiny tint of crazy. Did she drink a little too much again? Oh well. It's the little boy's problem now.

Grimm's ears twitch from picking up a conversation hearing that a squad member had disappeared. Psh. One squad member? Please. To Grimm it seemed like they were making such a big deal about it. It's <span class=""bb-i"">one</span> guy. Who cares? Unless he was important, it's time to move along now. This is what they had to expect if the humans are going to rebel.

They had slowly grown in size until they decided to make a move. They teamed up and annihilated humans. The Earth became more barren. Every few years Vampires would enter every  town and take a few children. The children were then raised for their blood in buildings that resemble a prison. The children were raised in poor conditions and do not live for very long but the best two or three children a year get blooded into vampires and then put into the army.

The humans have formed a rebellion and are planning to combat thee vampires once and for all.

Age: 7

Bio: Orpaned as a baby she was took in by the people at the observation center. She only knows what they have taught her. Many of the children know her as animal whisperer 

Personality: Chaotic and clumsy, normally gets her way but when she doesn't be prepared for a tantrum and a rampaging lion, or lioness. She has a deep hate for authority but doesn't show it too often 

Powers: She can talk to animals and summon them with any type of pen or pencil. She normally will call on them when she is in danger or too lazy to walk a long distance, though when she calls on the animal it is calm and well fed so it is no threat to her, maybe to others if she so wishes.

Autumn Eirwen

6

*Look at Alastairs Bio*

The shy, quiet one. She is very gentle. She hardly ever speaks above her normal soft voice and she tends to stutter and blush a lot when she is nervous or embarrassed. She is a klutz, tripping over her feet more often than not. She is a very kind and gentle soul who is easily upset and tends to cry a lot. 

Autumn can use the power of words to control inanimate objects therefore she has to be careful what she says.</div>

~Stands at 6’1~

Alastair Eirwen

17

For the most part of his life, Alastair didn’t even know he had a sister until she arrived one day with the same last name as him and looking almost identical to his mother when she was Autumn’s age. The two clicked almost instantly and Alastair made it his vow to protect Autumn with his life. 

The serious one. Alastair really only talks to his sister. But he is anything but shy. He will not hesitate to tell you he doesn’t like you or what he thinks of you. He can be very blunt and uncaring about others feelings. Unless you’re Autumn. She is the only one he cares about and is gentle to. Alastair doesn’t get angry easily but when he does it is a cold anger. He won’t yell but talk in a soft voice that tells you, you have approximately ten seconds to book it because heads are about to roll.

Artistic Animation~ The power to create any sort of being, object, etc with artistic means. He can give life to drawings/paintings.</div></div>"

Age: 16

Bio: Blaire really does not know much about her past. She was brought to the institution that she is being held in when she was very young. All she really remembers about her past is light blond hair, a tinkling beautiful laugh and soft hands. She also remembers tearful blue eyes and red stains, but not much after that. 

Personality: Blaire is quiet and intelligent girl. She hardly ever speaks, but when she does, she has a soft lilt to her voice which lets her know that she is not from where they are. She murmurs and mumbles sometimes when she speaks, making it hard for people to understand her at some times. She tends to think seriously and is not much of a humor person. 

Powers: Illusion/Dream Manipulation: She has the ability to project images into peoples’ minds whether they are awake and asleep. She is the one who controls the images however.

Age - 16

Bio - Josh had been at the centre from a very young age. His whole life he has been trying to escape. He swore he would get out of the centre and kill everyone that put him and the others there. He had been there for a while before his sister showed up. Well, his stepsister. He knew it was rare for two children of the same family to have the gene. He wished it was even rarer. He didn't even know they were related until he had talked to her to make sure they were ok. From there, they were deep in conversation and parents were mentioned.

Personality - Josh is a kind and caring person. Especially towards children. He'll protect them with his life if he has to. The main reason he wants to kill the staff is for putting the children here. He always puts others in front of him and will always make sure they're ok before he does anything for himself. He always puts in effort to talk to the kids and make sure they're ok. Especially his sister.

Powers - Shapeshifting

Name - Cerys MacKenzie

Age - 11

Bio - Cerys grew up normally. She didn't even know about Josh or his family. When Josh's dad started seeing her mum, she just assumed he was a random with no kids. That's what he told them. She was taken into the centre when she was 9 where she quickly bonded with Josh after they started talking.

Personality - She's shy around new people but will open up when she gets used to you. This isn't always a good thing. If she doesn't like you she'll tell you- she doesn't really understand the concept of other people's feelings.

Power - Telekinesis, but only when her eyes are shut

Age: 15

Bio: Alex believes he was born to a poor family from his earliest memories, but he can't be sure. He's been in the Vartican Center most of his life, and become used to the boredom and repetitive schedule. In the few social experiences he's had, he has learnt to manipulate people, using their own thoughts against them. He's always planned to try and escape one day, but it appears it's been done for him.

Personality: Alex is a sociopath. He avoids making friends (at least true friends), as he believes people can be of more use to him when manipulated to do what he wishes. He is self-centered, as he believes that it is human nature to try to further oneself, and that if others are pushed down, it is their own fault for not trying hard enough.

Powers: Mind Reading. However, when Alex becomes stressed and looses focus, he cannot control his power, and all nearby thoughts flood in, making it impossible to concentrate.

Bio: It was clear from about the age of 7 that Temple was a little strange, but not until she was 13 that she actually used her power and was taken into the observation center. In school she rarely did well in group activities simply because she just so rarely talked. She was usually assumed to have some kind of selective mutism, but during her teenage years she started to talk more, although her voice was always very soft and she still prefers to be silent.

Personality: Observant and curious. Most often when she does speak, she's asking a question. She loves nature above most other things, feeling very in tune and connected with it and often longing to spend more time in whatever quiet woods are the nearest. She has a bit of a tendency to stare as if trying to pry all the secrets out of someone. Likes hearing other people tell stories. Most of the time when she ""makes friends"" it is just her deciding that she likes a person and isn't necessarily mutual. When she's angry, she usually gives the cold shoulder. 

Powers: Astral projection (if that's okay). It does send her into a sleeplike trance, though, making her vulnerable when using it.

Bio  When James was younger, he'd get into fights with people a lot stronger than he was, but no matter how many times they'd beat him, he'd just get back up, so people started avoiding him, calling him a freak or a monster. He was taken away to the facility when they realized this was just part of his power.
personality  He's very quiet, and stays away from others, because he just doesn't like most people.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 15

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Being one of those abnormal children with highly unusual brain patterns who had survived, she had been taken away from her family since she was young, and brought into one of the observation centres. Most of her life was spent there, and she quite clearly remembers her past.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Quiet. That summarizes it. She's a person of few words. This is probably due to her powers as an empath and telepath. Her body perceives all thoughts and emotions. This results to her being usually silent, having everything flooding in and leaving little to no room for her to speak. Of course, over time, she has adapted to it and learned to ignore it, though a sane person would go crazy if they were ever to read her mind, or were she to influence their minds with what was on her mind. Still, she usually doesn't block them out, because ""it's quiet"", and no one talks to her much. She only blocks them when she has to concentrate on something. Thus, she might not respond sometimes when you talk to or approach her, and she would look lost in her own world(mind) most of the time.

Age:  18
Bio:  unknown, due to experiments and training that go's beyond human norms (like forcing him to connect his mind to a computer) he has lost all his memories...., he now only go's by the name Blade that was given to him, he has no idea if this is his real name or not as he tends to use a short sword which seemed to have stemmed his ""nickname""??, though they also have called him 66 for some reason, they trained him to be an assassin or super soldier or something.
personality:  He is kind of like a big brother or leader type of person, trying to aid the younger ones and ignoring his own trouble, he wont hesitate to take action and wont bother with taking a live if its needed, though he rather wants to live peaceful, I might change it in IC as I am not that good at working this out and in IC I might need to act differently and with it change his personality, but the big brother and expert soldier stuff is the base line.
Powers:  Bio-Electric enhancements
 able to manipulate the bio-electrical pulses that the brain sends out throughout the body.
using this he can increase his strength, speed and agility but this will damage his muscles, however this ability can also be used to redirect to his healing, in order to recover from wounds and restore the damage to his muscles, he can use his ability together with the physical improvements BUT both get more limited, able to barely restore his damaged muscles and still increase his ability's but at a lower rate (making him chose, balanced, healing or at own risk), also he can cover his body with the same electrical pulse in order to shock others, slowing down the other persons own bio-electrical impulses, making them react slower, weaker and less agile and fast in general.
Theory of the scientist is that he might even be able to connect his mind to a computer trough the impulses, using this he might be able to hack into systems on an organic level, able to bypass most computerized defenses or download its intelligence in his own brain, there might be more possibilities using this power but he has yet to learn them (such as mastering the impulses to release an electric blast or lightning)
finally he can also overload his own electrical force, leaving him completely drained and hardly able to walk around, but using this he can completely electrify someone or something, it takes time for him to restore from this but it has no permanent effects at least.
Equipment: A short sword.
Appearance:<img src=""http://img1.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire1/08222008/1/c/b/d/1cbd45bdab5ea0_full.jpg""/>
but with a scare on his right cheek
Other: He has a natural born ability to think at a super high level, able to process entire thoughts in a matter of a mere feeling (this is not a super power, I actually have this in real live), this is one of the reasons why the scientist believe he is able to hack computers with his mind</div>"

Age:  officially unknown due to one of his powers.
Bio:  Gaurman was found at the doorstep of a church as a baby, yet after being taken in a day later he was found as an teenager reading the bible, commenting on its flaws how he feels for some reason he cannot comprehend himself, that man mistranslated the scriptures or something, the nun that found the teen him went to get the priests that had found him, yet suddenly he was a baby once more, one playing with a rattler made from light.
it was this that forced the priests to bring him to Observation center where he grew up in the next 10 years of his live, learning to control his aging and his other powers, due to his switching between ages he can remember even the stuff from when he was a baby.
personality:  I cannot describe him, he has two states on mind due to one of his powers though, one more mature and one a small child
Powers:  
Judgement (able to create a beam of light from the hands or the air, the air one possess much more destructive power and range but it takes time to charge up and it cannot be controlled, hitting everything in its range, the one from his hand can be aimed more)
Angel feathers (able to create a shield of energy made feathers working like a barrier) 
Healing touch (able to revive and or heal by touching someone, the time is based on the wounds, he can also extend the holy aura around him, this lowers the healing effect but allows healing multiple targets, this holy aura makes no difference between friend and foe, this on the other hand also damage those weak to holy energy or light (in case such things appear IC))
-Weapon summon (Ability to summon or create weapons to his own wishes, limited to his two hands though (unless making one for someone else but these tend to be weaker and break in particles in time), these weapons are made from hardlight and in some cases possess unique powers though these are harder to make, the more powers and more powerful the more draining the creation is, more limited on time and longer it takes to make)
(if needed I can limit this one if people think its too much)
-Age (ability to switch between his age shapes, has no effect on his powers, but would effect his mental state)
-fly (he has wings of energy...)
-Holy song (able to sing a beautiful and captivating song that during the songs use captivates all those that hear it and is able to boost certain chosen targets their physical abilities and powers, the boosts effect differs based on the one effected)
Apperance:
-Child: his wings exist out of energy which he can create and disappear at a whim, they are 25 CM long and 50 CM high each with multiple colors, spanning from yellow, pink and green, white clothes with blue lines from shoulder to the lower part of the shirt, mid long blond hair and still blue eyes with a normal skin color while looking 10 years old
-Adult: His wings exist out of energy which he can create and disappear at a whim, they are at 3 meter long each and exist from multiple colors, spanning all the child ones and many more, having a complete line, he has long blond hair (until his lower back), white clothes with blue lines from shoulder to the lower part of the shirt, bright blue eyes, white skin and looks like he is 25</div>"

Even last night had been different, she dreamed for the first the time, of the savanna running with cheetahs and rolling around in dirt. Yes, that was her first dream in her short life and she was confused, also hungry. When she looked up her door was open. She jumped out of bed and went to the door and peeked out, Everyone's door was open she gasped and knew that she needed to find something to write with, it was seriously about to get dangerous. She ran from her room to the kitchen and found a bag she picked it up and searched it finding a few pens and pencils. she sighed in relief and went through the fridge, She stuffed a few cans of ravioli and fruit in the bag. She grabs some fresh fruit and draws a symbol to summon animal. The floor cracks where Omni drew the symbol and plant life springs from the crack and a large mamma gorilla climbs out of it and omni crawls under her and latches on, the mamma then runs quickly down the hall to the security office.</div>"

She got to her feet and cracked her back, then peeked cautiously out of the door. She shied back inside when a large gorilla ran past her, staring with wide eyes. When she saw the young girl holding on to the animal, she decided to step out and follow them at a safe distance. 
""What's...going on?"" she asked, very softly.</div>"

She is afraid of her dreams. She can give other people good dreams but she has yet to get any herself. She must have faded some time because she blinks once and the door is open. The door is never open. She climbs to her feet and sees Omni ride past on a gorilla. She then rushes to the door and peers out. She sees a bunch of people looking out of their doors and she walks out as well. She walks over to the secruity area, seeing Omni there with the female gorilla. She asks, ""Hello, little one. Do you know what's going on?</div>"

She took a shuddering breath, trying to calm down. Just a dream. It was just a dream. But she couldn't get the image of her parents watching with emotionless expressions as she was dragged away into the dark. She shivered, remembering how she had screamed for them as the dark hands tore at her hair and clothes but they only watched as the abyss consumed her. She rubbed her eyes, her cell coming into focus. She blinked then her eyes widened when she realized the door to her cell was open. The little girl climbed out of bed then padded to the door on bare feet, dressed only in her nightgown. She peeked out, gasping when she saw other kids roaming around. She hesitantly stepped out, looking around for her brother.

Usually when he woke up, the staff would make sure he is up an out of bed immediately. But since they weren't here, he could get a few extra moments of sleep... Eh, stuff it, he thought, as he pulled himself into a sitting position and stretched, opening his eyes.

He looked over at the door, wondering where the guards were. And why the door was open. The door was open? What? The intimidate confusion subsided, and Alex smiled. This was his lucky day. He quickly prepared himself, and strolled out the door. He took notice of the things around him. Omni had taken to freedom quickly, riding a gorilla down the hall. Everybody's doors were open, and the guards were nowhere to be seen. Had some third party let them free? Was this just a glitch in the system? Had the guards planned this?

He made his way to the kitchen. He filled a bottle with water, and collected some food. Bread, chocolate, fruit,enough to keep him going until he'd fully escaped. He also grabbed some cutlery, to sell when he got out of the center so he could have some money. He grabbed an apple, and walked out into the hall. Before he left, he thought might as well check some things out here. He walked down the hall, following the path that Omni and her gorilla had taken.</div>"

He asked loudly, his voice boomed throughout the hallway.


Cerys was awoken by the loud voice of Josh. She quickly got up and stumbled out of bed. She let out a small gasp of pain as she stubbed her toe. She quickly fumbled around the room for her slippers. She found then and slipped them on. They were pink fluffy slippers with eyes, mouth and ears at her toes. She was allowed to bring in one thing from home- her slippers which were a gift from her mum.

Of those children, less than a third survive a week. The ones that do survive, are taken from their parents to special ""Observation Centers""The children are placed in Solitary confinement. They're educated privately, and kept away from human contact. It's been discovered that these unique girls and boys all have extraordinary intelligence. Most of them also seem to have developed some sort of ""Special"" abilities. But as a result of their detainment, their social capabilities are probably lacking, at best. One of the largest Observation Centers is The Vartican Center, located in England. This is where this story will take place. Detained children are given reading materials, and three meals are delivered to their cells each day. On this day, however, breakfast did not come. The children would instead find that their doors were open, and all of the Authority figures were no where to be found. What was happening? How would they survive? The story starts here

BRIEF Bio - 
Sixteen year old Parker was bitten by a spider just outside of a gypsy fortune teller booth at Coney Island in NYC after the fortune teller said to him ""great power and responsibility will find you..."" Over the course of the next year Parker gained spider like abilities and eventually grew extra arms. With powers now mystic in nature, Parker would learn to 'absorb' his extra arms within him. The now seventeen year old Parker created the costume and alias of Tarantula after bringing the man to justice who was responsible for the murder of his Aunt May. 

Five years into his career he has seen quite a bit. As Tarantula, Parker became a member of his universe's Dr. Strange's more mystical team of Defenders along with Damon Hellstorm, Jack O' Lantern, Black Cat, and Ghost Rider. He's defeated such enemies as the King of the Symbiotes, the Green Goblins [a street gang], and aided the Defenders in battles with Mephisto, Adam Warlock, and Blackheart. 

Notes -  Organic webbing isn't as sticky as the 616 Spiderman's artificial webbing. He's still a pretty standard Spiderman just with a darker look and more mystical tone. Currently lives with his wheelchair bound Uncle Ben. 

Response to Spider Fist - [no more than 2 paragraphs!!!] 

Tarantula stood in awe of the oddly dressed Spider Fist. Parker had heard tales of other Spiders in the multiverse by Dr. Strange, but he never imagined one to be all Kung-Fu master Spiderman. The 'Fist took off his mask, revealing a familiar face in Danny Rand that resembled the Iron Fist on Tarantula's alternate Earth. 

""You can trust me."" Spider Fist spoke out walking closer to the six armed spider man. 

""I'm not taking off my mask. How do you even know I'm not one of the badguys?"" Tarantula asked in response.

""The talisman brought me to you ... through the portal. Had you been an insane man bonded to a symbiote or an out of control  genetic experiment it would have shown me someone else on the other side of the portal..."" Spider Fist answered.

""Sounds legit. Where are we off to first?"" Parker asked.

""Into the Negative Zone to regroup with others. At the Spiders' Web..."" responded the kung-fu spider putting his mask back on before leaping into the portal with Tarantula.

BRIEF Bio - Ten years ago the High Evolutionary released a virus in New York that caused the entire population to  transform into animal hybrids. Most didn't survive the transformation and of those that did over 60 % went insane. Wanting to limit the chaos the army quarantined the entire city.

For the last decade Danny has been living in this nightmare while protecting his insane but harmless mother Jessica Drew. Over the years he has gathered other non dangerous hybrids and formed a team/family whose main goal is survival.

Note: It takes him several days to produce webbing if he runs out, so he doesn't use it as often as most Spidermen
Response to Spider Fist - Danny hadn't seen a normal looking  human in ages and now all of a sudden one appeared in front talking about the multiverse and asking for help. After thinking it over for a few seconds he answered. "" Fine I'll help but on the condition that you promise to look for a place where my family and I can live safely and without being considered freaks.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Brief Bio:</span>

Percy Parker grew up with his parents who raised him to him become a scientific genius by the age of 15. It was around this time that Peter discovered an unusual set of subatomic particles he labels ""Parker Particles."" Using this, he began to engineer a size-altering device. When he went to show this to his father, who was working on project involving genetically engineered Spiders, he was bitten by one which had escaped. Seething in pain, Peter accidentally activated his device, shrinking himself down to the size a spider (or Ant :P ). Finding himself trapped in his father's Spider enclosure, he fought his way out, and after regaining his regular size, he decided that this technology was too dangerous so hid it away.

Weeks later, while struggling to control his newfound abilities, his parents died in a car accident during a high speed chase between a group of crooks and the police. Sick with grief, Percy realized that you could have helped stop the incident from happening if he hadn't hid his powers and inventions. He decided that with great power, comes great responsibility. Returning to the lab, he donned a costume, equip a device that would allow him to shrink and grow at will, as well as a cybernetic helmet that his father had been working on, which allows the user to communicate and control spiders. Spider-man was born, facing enemies such as the dreaded General Octopus and Kraven the Huntress!

<span class=""bb-b"">Response to Spider Fist:</span>

Percy's first thought when Spider-Fist appeared was along the lines of ""How the hell are you speaking?"" Granted, that was because he had only just woken up, with the hero's appearance interrupting his weekly nap. It was also because he had stupidly mistaken the hero for one of the many abnormally large spiders that roamed around the barren laboratory.

Regardless, it had taken Percy several seconds to realize what was going on. ""Um..."" He started awkwardly. ""Sorry to be a pain, but could you repeat all that? As if I did hear correctly, then I'm most definitely in!""</div></div>"

He was at a public exhibition for 'safe' nuclear experiments when the spider, irradiated by accident during a demonstration, bit him on the back of the neck. He felt dizzy, and his vision blurred, before he passed out. He awoke in the hospital, only able to 'see' dancing colored blurs. He was blind. However, he started to notice that he had strange new abilities when he awoke. He was stronger and faster than before, able to cling to walls, and was able to sense oncoming danger. However, his senses (excluding sight, of course) were also unbelievably enhanced. <br/><br/>He adjusted to this new life as anyone would, and was greatly supported by his uncle, Ben Parker. Peter's parents (who, when married, hyphenated their last names) died in an accident when he was very young, and was taken in by Ben and May Parker, Peter's matrilinial uncle and aunt. May developed cancer not long after, and died, leaving Ben to take care of Peter by himself. Unknown to Ben, Peter's new therapist, Mr. Stick (as he called himself), had been teaching Peter a kind of martial arts as a way of release.<br/><br/>The whole spider fiasco turned Peter away from a career in science, and he decided instead to pursue law in college. Meanwhile, Ben's boxing career had started winding down. He was getting older, and wouldn't be able to sustain it for much longer. A rather shady opportunity came to him one day, a large sum of money in exchange for throwing a match. He reluctantly accepted. When the time came, however, he did just the opposite; he won the match in record time. Battlin' Ben Parker finally had the glory he'd been waiting for his entire career. It was short-lived. He found hitmen waiting for him in his home, and was murdered.<br/><br/>Peter had just gotten his graduate's degree at the time, and had been accepted into law school. The loss was devastating. He realized that he'd been given incredible powers, and never used them to anyone's benefit other than his own. Could he have saved Ben? Probably not, since he wouldn't have been there. He realized, though, that he <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have helped many more people, and thus made it his responsibility to do so.<br/><br/>Since then, he's taken up defending New York full-time.

He thought for decades on the premise of a hero. Until he noticed a oddly prodigious creature lurking in his manor. It was perfect he believed. He mutated the fetus of his most recent lover with a gene he believed would protect Earth -1797 from itself. And thus, Spider-Rogue was born.

Right after Peter Parker was bitten by the radioactive spider, the young lass, Cyn was bitten as well, however her powers didn't come into fruition until much later.  She had one close friend she made around her neighborhood but he ended up dying when Cyn reached her junior year.

He is very intelligent, a gift thanks to his father and was bullied throughout high school. When he went to police college he trained his body, building up muscle mass. He started to lift weights and he hit the gym, getting involved in some kick boxing and other hard hitting martial arts. He later became a cop after police college and it was on his first rookie investigation that he was bitten by a radioactive spider at a laboratory that was broken into. Due to this incident he allowed the burglar to escape, which later shall haunt him as this very same thief ended up murdering his uncle. He learnt of his powers thanks to the mystery spider and became a super hero. At first he tried to balance the two out: being a cop by day and a superhero by night. It wouldn't last for long and he eventually he told his mentor, a senior cop on the force and a man with great power. Edward left the force to take up crime fighting on his accord, but still kept in touch with his mentor who aided him with inside secrets.<br/><br/>Edward's new life would once again change when he encountered an alien symbiote which took control over him. His personality changed and he gained a new form which he was able to control. He enjoyed the new power, but wanted more. He injected some of the symbiote into his very bloodstream, thus forming and creating an entirely new symbiote, but still having the control of the original. The two symbiotes fought until an agreement was made between them. They'll both use Edward's body as a host, both having a voice inside his head. Edward became more aggressive and violent, and ultimately stronger. He was able to take the form of either of the two symbiotes, both having different skillsets from each other. At times of great need he can combine the two, forming an ultimate form that combine the two symbiotes. He named the black symbiote, Venom and the red symbiote, Carnage.

In this version of Spider-Man, Aunt May is Peter's mother's sister instead of Uncle Ben being his father's brother.

Patrick Campwood<br/>Alias - Spiderman-Neo or Neo-Spiderman (also called Neo by friends and allies (like how Spiderman is often called Spidy))<br/>Earth # - 000-X<br/>Powers - <br/>-all basic spiderman powers though he is more oriented on speed and agility instead of strength<br/>-Organic web shooters from his wrists<br/>-instead of a spider-sense that feels danger he can feel aura's, using this he is able to feel those in his area and even tell if they are lying or scared and such, this gives a spider-sense when the enemy is attacking physically (trough he cant really feel the exact movements unless its a big body part like a huge tail of the lizard that is attacking him) but as bullets and such do not possess this live energy, he cant feel these coming at all, also if he is familiar with a specific aura from being around them for a long period of time, then he can feel them from much further, trough he can only sense a general direction and only strong emotions (such as fear)<br/>-increase in intelligence but mostly to a degree where he can make things like spider tracers and a kind if distress call on cop's radio frequencies to alert cops where he has trapped crooks<br/>-retractable claws on the fingernails, where they look normally but can grow into sharp points with a density similar to ivory.<br/>Weaknesses - <br/>-While his Aura sense is formible with finding and knowing more about the incoming danger, it cant pick up anything that is not alive, making him weak to bullets, missiles, swords and so on<br/>-his claws are strong and dangerous but they are not unbreakable and will hurt<br/>-the real spidy had an enhanced healing but at best Neo has the advantage where heavy wounds and only heavy wounds (meaning small minor stuff will not be effected) stop bleeding real fast<br/>-due to past experiences before all this crazyness started he has some social fears, he can escape all that when wearing the masks, but if he has to live without the mask and feels that he will spend a lot of time with a group of people he can close himself off to them fearing the pasts events happening again <br/><br/>Personality - most will come during the rp, however he will try to make spiderman type of jokes, the social fear issue is due to the following: getting hated and targeted for no clear reason aside being different due to having experienced slight brain damage at a very young age, nothing that effects his abilities or daily live but he has developed mentually at a different rate then normal (though at his current age this is not that noticeble anymore) and may have some other ways of viewing things or doing things, being different compared to ""normal""people)<br/>Age: 26<br/>Appearance -

 he has some spider trackers and cop warning systems with him at all time<br/>Skills: due to his powers he has an increased intelligence on a more mechanical level, trough without any studys in the subject he can only make small simple things, He has made his personal martial arts, he knows some Japanse himself<br/><br/>Response to Spider Fist -<br/><br/>While it was surprising to hear all this from a guy standing in some kind of portal or hole between realms as Patrick guessed what it really was, he believed the man, for 2 things.<br/>one he was clearly a mix between spiderman and the iron fists, two marvel characters that have always been hero's with nothing more then the right intentions, if you mixed the great responcibility and the peacefull and justice loving nature of Iron fist, then the man cant be bad<br/>second he had seen a lot of weird stuff up till now so this was to be expected eventually.<br/>""Guess this could be my best bet on finding what the hell happened to my reality as well, not that I am complaining but I still want to know what changed it all, so yeah count me in, sounds like fun anyway as well, seeing all the real spidy's from different realms""<br/>Neo stood up but stopped suddenly ""wait when we return time will continue from this point on right, not that I just go missing here, got a wife and child that need me in that case""<br/><br/>Spider Fist nodded to Neo's question ""yes time shall continue from this point on when you return, nothing will change outside your experiences and knowledge""<br/>""thank god, yeah count me in then, something in the multiverse mixed this world with what was seen as a comic book so time to go to the source""<br/>With that Neo stepped though the portal as it closed behind him, freezing the time of his world untill his return from his point of view</div>"

The main differences between this Peter and the mainstream Peter was the field trip that changed the mainstream's life and got him his powers never happened to this one, it was closed due to an accident involving a worker and a radioactive spider. Sadly though many other events continued on such as Petey getting into wrestling and ending up getting his uncle shot. Peter began to channel his grief into his school work as he developed many different technologies that would make Tony Stark proud. <br/>As villains began to rise in full force Peter found that he now had a means of taking on these criminals with the various gadgets he had developed. At first Peter didn't have much of an idea of how to utilize his skills and gadgets but when a villain arose calling himself 'The Spiderman' arose he figured he would become the Ying to this Spider-man's Yang and decided to call himself 'The Steel Spider-man' or Steel as his full title was a bit of a mouthful. Petey began cleaning up his city using his spider themed apparel and gadgetry.<br/>Notes - <br/>Petey uses his mind more so than his brawn to beat his opponents in the form of his gadgets such as:<br/>-Spider-Legs: six long spider like appendages made from a space age alloy and can lift anywhere from 10 to 30 tons depending on how many arms are at work. They are mostly used for transportation but are able to be used for combat purposes.<br/>-M.A.C.S: Multi Alarm Cognitive System or M.A.C.S is a helmet that's connected to Petey's mind that warns him of incoming danger via what seems like a high pitched squeal and a reddening of his vision.<br/>-Swingers: two forearm gauntlets that are able to fire out lines of cable that are able to fasten themselves to almost any surface via ever so tiny barbs in the wire.<br/><br/>Response to Spider Fist - Petey swung through the city with average nimbleness, he wasn't used to swinging yet as he usually used his Spider-Legs or normal legs to run around the city but he figured that swinging would be a lot faster. As he got to the climax of the swing he began hearing the voice of another asking for assistance. Peter almost plummeted to his doom but he was able to have his Spider-legs catch the wall and save him. As the mysterious Spider-Fist finished his speech Petey replied ""Don't know why you'd ask me to help out, I'm not exactly a Bruce Lee when it comes to this stuff, but you can bet your buck I'm willing to help you out Mr,"" he finished staring with determination.</div>"

His white mask was in his hand revealing his identity to be that of Peter Parker from another alternate universe. In the week that the Spider's Web HQ had been finished over three dozen Spidermen have been brought in. Scientists and Spidermen from differet timelines were brought in to make the Council, some of the smartest Spidermen in the multiverse including Max Borne [from 2211, true believers!], Aaron Aikman, a young female named Peni Parker, Miguel O'Hara from the year 2099, as well as the FF Spiderman who remained a member of his universe's Future Foundation and only got exponentially smarter hanging around with Reed Richards all day. Finally, the Spiderman Peter was waiting on walked up... Aaron Aikman. <br/><br/>""I was starting to wonder if everyone in the Council was occupied..."" the FF Spidey commented as Aikman removed his helmet before entering the Council's chamber. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Elsewhere in the Spider's Web HQ...</span><br/><br/>In what seemed like thirty minutes or so Spider Fist bounced in and out of portals gathering Spidermen for the mission against the Green Goblin Army of Earth 12814. The six armed black clad Tarantula was the first to be placed in the lounge like area of the HQ followed by a red and black costumed Spider. To make things less awkward Tarantula absorbed his extra arms as Spider Fist continued bouncing in and out of portals with more Spidermen and one black clad Spidergirl who asked to be called Silk by her peers. A younger black and red clad Spiderman soon arrived calling himself Spider Rogue, then later removing his mask as others had began doing and reintroduced himself as Emery. Another Spiderman showed up with two symbiotes clearly attached to him, as well as a more ninja looking Spiderman soon after as Spider Fist was <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> putting a team together. Another Spiderman with a busy costume called himself Neo, and lastly Spider Fist brought in another guy with not just four robotic arms... the guy had six.<br/><br/>""Hmmph, I <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have more arms but there's no more room on my rib cage..."" Tarantula muttered under his breath. <br/><br/>""Now that I have you all gathered here, if everyone would remove your masks... I know there may be some hesitation in some of you but trust me when I say that you are among friends here."" Spider Fist said removing his own mask and revealing himself to be an alternate Danny Rand.<br/><br/>Only a couple of the Spidermen looked like the standard Peter Parker, including Parker Peterson. Based on the expression on the face of one of the guys closer resembling Peter Parker, it was obvious he was blind with some kind of sixth sense like Daredevil. Peni will probably love this guy as much as the Daredevil from her alternate universe. Tarantula was also one of the Spidermen who hesitated but remembered his universe's Dr. Strange mentioning something about a multiverse and there being more Spidermen as well as Dr. Stranges and other heroes and villains as well. Parker removed his black mask and said...<br/><br/>""You said we were gathered to take down a Goblin Army, I've already taken down a Goblin Gang in my universe. What's the big deal with this 'Earth 12814', their Spiderman a punk or something?"" Tarantula questioned. <br/><br/>""The Green Goblin of this parallel world mutates into the Goblin the same way as somebody like the Hulk. Using his scientific mind, this Norman Osborne cracked the genetic mutation of Multiple Man's DNA and didn't <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> duplicate himself. He created serums to give him three different types of Goblin..."" Spider Fist began to answer before FF Spidey and Aaron Aikman entered the room silencing everyone save for the voices in the Symbiote's head maybe.<br/><br/>""We'll take it from here..."" Aikman mentioned to Spider Fist. <br/><br/>""There are three different types of Goblins you should all be aware of..."" FF Spidey began, ""..a small <a href=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/spiderverse-small-goblins_zpsrp2a2ylh.png"" rel=""nofollow"">sentry like Goblin</a> who rides the bat glider like some of you have probably dealt with. Slightly enhanced strength, speed, refelxes as well as standard Goblin tech like pumpkin bombs and bat blades. The next Goblin is what we've just started calling the <a href=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/spiderverse-big-goblins_zpsz32atynw.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Goblin Brutes</a> and they're basically mindless muscle that wreck everything they see. About a dozen or so brutes helped Norman defeat Earth 12814's Avengers...""<br/><br/>""Which brings us to the third and final Goblin... <a href=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/spiderverse-GoblinKing_zpsqp6m6hjw.png"" rel=""nofollow"">the Goblin King</a>. Upon defeating the Avengers he acquired Thor's hammer and through science and/or magic he wields it every bit as efficiently as the Asgardian. It's believed he can't duplicate in this form as only one Goblin King has ever been seen."" Aikman concluded.<br/><br/>""Osborn's fortress is the old Oscorp tower in Manhattan, mostly the same layout as any NYC in the multiverse. Hundreds of Goblins patrol the city and hundreds more have extended his influence in the rest of the north American continent. Last we heard from 12814's Spiderman he was hiding out in an abandoned lair of the Lizard's in the sewers about three blocks away from what remains of the Daily Bugle building. A few Goblin Sentries nearly killed him...""  FF Spiderman said, trying to give these Spidermen a better idea of what they're up against. <br/><br/>""Any questions?"" Aikman asked the group.<br/><br/>----------------------------------<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">NYC, Earth 12814...</span><br/><br/>""Come out come out wherever you aaaare!"" taunted one of about a dozen sentry Goblins roaming the sewers looking for Spiderman. <br/><br/>The Spiderman of this world was still bloody and bruised but could hear their noisy gliders a few blocks away. It wouldn't be hard keeping distance between them, unless he got back against a wall somehow. <br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

It was ironic but from all the canon like enemies, they were the only ones that he has never seen, maybe Mutate was the closest but then again she was also the furthest from any real canon villain, still he had played the games, read the comics and watched the tv shows, his biggest issue was, which of the many incarnations where they dealing with, the scouts sounded a lot like the 90's show at least...<br/><br/>Then it became time for questions and he had some, and a remark he would smartly put as a question.<br/>He lifted his hand and once they said he could speak he started.<br/>""I got a couple, but first I want to throw an idea in the party, this King; Could it be that due to the Hammers abilities its impossible to make duplicates of it? Even in Asgard its the only one and they made it so if more could exist they would have been able to do so in case Thor lost the damned thing, regardless I guess the King would as the name suggest be the leader and likely the original Norman, most times with Duplicate-man, once you knock out the original, all the clones get canceled and forced back, so yeah maybe that is an possibility""<br/>he let that sink in for a second before continuing, he would get his answers afterwards.<br/>""for my questions, I Know there are a lot of different Goblin incarnations, different powers of tricks and all, so I would like some list of known powers and stuff for each of the 3 types, if we know more about what were dealing with the better we can handle it, plus who knows I may remember the tricks of each incarnation if Ive seen that one before"" the next bit he whispered to himself ""though I never met one in real live""<br/>Then he spoke out loud ""second off, can I get a map or something cause I dont live in New york so.... yeah...""</div>"

He swiveled left, then right, then left again. He was really surrounded by other Spidermen, other beings just like him. It had always been a dream or perhaps something even less tangible than that. More like a frivolous, hopeful, prayer. He chuckled before walking near the front of the group to see.<br/><br/>	It seemed like all of the other Spidermen was older and taller than him. It was a bit annoying but he'd taken down bigger opponents before, it was nice to have tall allies for once. <br/><br/>	Hearing the explanation of the situation sent a cold fear up his spine. The Goblin in his universe was no picnic in the park, in fact, the kid had taken out three blocks before he could take him down. Another Spiderman's comments and questions however had replaced that fear with worry. Though it was not for the danger they would all be putting themselves in but the danger that a fellow Spiderman was in instead. <br/><br/>	He stepped out from the others, his hazel eyes staring a furrow gaze out towards the others. Glancing at everyone with seriousness, he rubbed the back of his head then swept it casually to his side. ""Hold on, shouldn't we be discussing saving our ally?

Nobody other than the Spiderman of Earth 12814 knows exactly what we're up against..."" Aikman added.<br/><br/>""As far as a map of NYC, it's an alternate universe's NYC so it could always vary. Just look for the skyscraper labeled 'Oscorp'."" FF Spidey continued to the next question about rescuing the Spiderman of this parallel world, ""We're going to split the group into two teams. The first group will portal into the sewers to locate the Spiderman and intercept any Goblin sentries. Team two will cause a distraction topside though you will have to stay on your toes and lookout for the Goblin Brutes...""<br/><br/>""Do NOT get put into a corner by multiple Brutes, they won't hold back and are responsible for the deaths of many of this Earth's heroes."" Aaron Aikman continued right along. It was good that this group was asking questions. <br/><br/>Neo nodded and then put his hand up again ""I can sense aura's, perhaps it would be helpful to locate Spidey in the sewers and I should be able to sense any goblin sentries as well..""<br/><br/>Another Spiderman with a tech'ed out suit asked about what the Spiderman of 12814 was like...<br/><br/>""The <a href=""http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/259/2/4/project_rooftop__spider_man_by_xashe-d4a031p.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Spiderman of Earth 12814</a> is another version of me..."" began the FF Spidey, ""Another Peter Parker who is an older member of the Avengers personally trained by his universe's Captain America.

Spidermen (and well women) gathered and listened in respectful silence as the calm-toned FF spoke first about the removal of masks and then the impending danger. As reluctant to pull off her mask Silk felt in the beginning, she decided was it really worth causing a commotion over as all these spidermen/women were from different universes anyway and wouldn't really be able to out her secret identity anyway. Silk slowly removed her mask and smiled a half smirk as she too, moved towards the back. Staring down the spider-guy who had moved towards the rear before her, her resting bitch face could be enough to unnerve even the dalai lama. <br/><br/>As more of the debriefing went on, Silk found herself yawning quite loudly when the spiderman next to her decided to ask more questions. Which meant drawn out talking. It was quite rude of her but that was her personality. After getting the basics, she was ready for the action already. The Thor goblin though, the idea of that seemed particularly grandeur and was an idea maybe she'd try to get one of these guys or someone back home to start thinking about. She imagined herself with the hammer -- goddess in her own right laying down the law and especially on the peter parker in her own realm. Idiot guy.<br/><br/>She snapped out of it and tuned back in for something about captain america. Okay... ""So then let's quit the idle chatter and let's go save him."" She smirked again as her hair fell back in front of her face.</div>"

Now that the emotion had come to the forefront, it was near impossible to push it back. For the first time since being brought in by Spider-Fist, he felt a real urge for action. <br/><br/>	With a mindless nod, he agreed with the unknown, female voice behind him. ""Yeah, let's go. He could be cornered right now. The quicker the better... I think,"" he tacked on at the end with a unsure smirk, worried about inexperience. <br/><br/>	The multi-verse was an astoundingly massive place, if all of them were brought in to fight this terror of Goblins, then it was probably best for him not to underestimate them. Even still, he worried for his life. Telling himself those things were pointless. He had a knack for putting himself in unnecessary danger. The only difference being, in his world he could afford to take the risks. In this one, it wasn't so much a choice and most likely fatal. <br/></div>"

Ba-bump. I tune my own out. Ba-bump. Two heartbeats. Ba-bump. I've memorized one already- it's Spider-Fist's. Ba-bump. One other person in the room. Ba-bump. It's beating faster than a normal heart. Ba-bump. I hear Spider-Fist walk away, and suddenly we're alone. Me and the other one, presumably another version of me. Or is it another version of 'Spider-Man?' I'll save the philosophical questions for later. I can sense the extra mass around their torso. Extra arms. More arms to pump blood to. Faster heart. Makes sense. <br/><br/>    I simply nod to them, and almost as a response, the mass is gone and the heartbeat slows. Their arms are gone. Soon, Spider-Fist returns with more Spider-Men, one by one, until there are seven others, plus Spider-Fist. <br/><br/>    ""Hmmph, I <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> have more arms but there's no more room on my rib cage...""<br/><br/>    The voice came from Tarantula, the one who was already here when I arrived. It was under his breath, probably inaudible to everyone else in the room, but I heard it clearly. I now know his name, shape, heartbeat, smell, and voice... Another voice speaks up.<br/><br/>    ""Now that I have you all gathered here, if everyone would remove your masks... I know there may be some hesitation in some of you but trust me when I say that you are among friends here.""<br/><br/>    Spider-Fist. I hear the faint swishing of the other Spider-Men removing their masks. Hesitating, I'm last to remove my own. I figure at least one of them is staring at me, but it doesn't bother me. The exercise was probably supposed to build some trust between the group immediately, but it does nothing for me. Oh well. I run a hand through my hair, setting it back down after removing my mask stood it up. It felt funny that way. <br/><br/>    Spider-Fist starts dispensing information on the enemy before he's interrupted by two more Spider-Men. Before they finish their speech, I have a good grasp on their identities, (except their names, having not introduced themselves) as well as everyone else's in the room. The other ""me's"" start asking questions, one called Neo requesting more information on the goblins and commenting under his breath that he hasn't actually faced one before. A rookie? Spider-Fist must have a good reason to call somebody with no experience in. A Spider-Woman, Silk, calls the ones asking questions out on their time-wasting. Thank God. Spider-Rogue agrees with her, as do I. We need to move soon. Finally, I speak up.<br/> <br/>    ""So what are we waiting for? Let's go.""</div>"

Although it didn't last long with a nice plop into the fountain, she noticed a whimsical spiderman play off falling into the fountain... typical. <br/><br/>With a smirk, she tuned back into the conversation. No crowd control for her if she was to be ported directly into the sewers. This made her happy that they already knew she wasn't much for crowd control and wanted a piece of the main action. She pulled her mask on and as she was ported, flipped her hand up and waved her fingers, slyly towards one silly spider-man in particular.<br/><br/>Here in the murky, and grunge-filled sewers, already Neo and the hairless ninja spiderman decide to bark orders. Dividing and conquering, finally something spoken she could agree with. Heading two by two? ""No thanks."" Silk said with her arms crossed. Indeed, she already had plans to ditch them the moment she got there and although the pairs were probably randomized, she couldn't help but take an added insult being told to go two by two with Neo, the one who had objected to her haste earlier. As she began to slip away, she heard Murdock say wait. Something about his voice commanded an authority she would obey this time. <br/><br/>""No need to split up. He's that way. We can catch him first if we hurry.""<br/><br/>Silk darted off towards the way he pointed. Maybe that would give them incentive to stop standing around and do something. If not, it wasn't like she wouldn't attempt to handle this alone. Again the adrenaline pumped through her veins and a rush that she hadn't felt since she began to develop her powers came through. Each slap against the hard water left an echo that bounded off in each direction. If she could concentrate, she'd be able to make each stride a little less booming but with the footsteps trailing behind, she could see it was unnecessary. The sewers became more dimly lit with a fork of six trails this time. Coming to a slower pace, She listened closely, ignoring the footsteps behind her and now she too, could hear a faint voice from the left most.

The Goblin King was alerted to what was going on. The sudden appearance of multiple Spidermen was something he had to see with his own eyes. The hammer of Thor lifted him into the air and with another boom he was on his way to the other side of town. More Spidermen seemed to be coming from the sewers as the others continued to beat on the enemy. More civilians came out of hiding to witness the turning of the battle. When lightning cracked and the Symbiote Spiderman possessing versions of both Venom and Carnage was hit, the host body was charred and burned from the attack and the symbiotes were left screaming.<br/><br/>""Interesting, now... come out come out little Spiders..."" said the Goblin King walking down the middle of the once busy NY street as some scientists with Oscorp logos on their suits procured the symbiotes for later use. <br/><br/>After Tarantula locked eyes with the away team he shouted to the group...<br/><br/>""We need to get to the extraction point. It's starting to light up over the 'Bugle!""  Parker Peterson screamed through his black Tarantula mask and absorbing his extra arms, swinging more sharply now after taking a goblin sentry off his glider with a flip kick off a building.<br/><br/>~KL~</div>"

Spider UK [an alt universe Capt. Britain who took over for his Spiderman] was tasked with bringing a team of Spidermen together to take down the Inheritors, given a spider talisman to travel the multiverse by his superiors. After several dozen Spidermen of the multiverse were killed, the Inheritors were defeated and things would go back to the way they had seemed before with each of the Spidermen having knowledge of how big and complex the multiverse truly was. The talisman once given to Spider UK was then passed on to another, Spider Fist [an amalgam of Spiderman and Iron Fist], in case another situation threatening Spidermen and/or the multiverse arose.   <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Namaste!""<br/><br/><img src=""http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/thekidlantern/aSpiderFist_zps5c3c683d.png""/><br/><br/>""The Spiderman of Earth 12814 sent out a distress beacon across the multiverse seven hours ago.

My mother had her 5th heart attack on Monday morning and my head has been all over the place. With my older sister moved away I have to make decisions for my mom now in case she can't make them herself and just in two days I feel like I've run around the world ten times over. I haven't had much time to begin writing the IC and the little time I do have I try and keep a post a week in my other game [Young Justice 2022]. Things may get better in a few days, maybe a week or so, but for now I just wanted to give everyone a heads up since most of you are just now RP'ing with me for the first time. 

On Spidey in the Avengers films: Kinda figured this would happen. The ONLY thing Marvel could do to compete with Batman/Superman being in the same film next year is to also do something that's NEVER been done in film, and that was Spiderman with the Avengers. I have high hopes. I see Robert Downey Jr. being a key factor since post Civil War the Iron Spider was a big thing in the Spiderman universe and even in the cartoon Ultimate Spiderman Ironman has been like a mentor to Pete [I think he even claims in an ep that if he had a superhero mentor it'd be Stark]. It began with Downey Jr in Ironman, it will end with him bridging the gap for Disney/Marvel and other properties to crossover. I think by Phase 3's end, they may even go the route of Superior Ironman to make Downey Jr. the badguy. But I guarantee, with Sony getting permission to feature two characters from Marvel/Disney's universe in their next two solo Spiderman films, if RDJ is in one of the characters will most definitely be Ironman.

In terms of Spider-man, I kind of want them to use Miles Morales, as I seriously don't want to have to watch Uncle Ben get shot again! Even if they do go down that route though, I would love to see Donald Glover play him! I like your idea for Superior Ironman though!

Her father was of japanese descent and her mother of African descent. Growing up very intelligent for her age, Cyn got to escape the less than adequate educational system right next to home and got to go to an upper private school that was a walk from where she lived, in Queens. Right after Peter Parker was bitten by the radioactive spider, the young lass, Cyn was bitten as well, however her powers didn't come into fruition until much later.  She had one close friend she made around her neighborhood but he ended up dying when Cyn reached her junior year. It was then that she tapped into her powers and upon realizing her advantages, swore to take revenge. After she tracked down the gang members who she had suspected of killing her friend, she took up arms against them and would've killed them if it wasn't for Spiderman stopping her, barely. The two soon began a love-hate rivalry where Cyn had more of a ends-justify-the-means persona while peter parker did things vice versa. Off duty, Cyn is in school to become a chemist.<br/><br/>Notes - Weaker in terms of strength, made up for in everything else<br/><br/>Shooting a web to cover Electro's mouth after another failed attempt at city take over, Silk slinked off into the shadows while Spiderman yelled out ""Hey!"". Not in the mood for his meaningless argument as to why they shouldn't just kill Electro instead of waiting for him to break out of prison again, Silk webslinged her way to the top of a skyscraper and sighed. Another day of dealing with the same losers, saving the city yet nothing filling her void and in the long run nothing being solved for long. She wondered what Axl would have told her, if he could see her right now.<br/><br/>The wind blew through her hair as a new voice carried through. She quickly turned and saw him and heard his plea for help. Odd looking guy and an even weirder way of speaking. A smile creeped upon her face. Just the type of thing that might help her find the thrill she was looking for. She licked her lips. ""Sure. Just know I'll be doing things my way.""</div></div></div>"

Name: Abernathy
Age: Around 45 (But has existed for a much longer, unknown amount of time)
Gender: Male
Species: Was a human
Living or Dead?: Dead (Ghost)
Abilities: Traveling through walls, shapeshifting, possessing things
Description: William Abernathy was an intriguing man, and a brilliant writer. He was respected and loved by many. Sadly, there were many who did not care for, and even loathed the eccentric author. William was assassinated by one of these people. Following his death, his ghost became known solely as “Abernathy”, and has acted as sort of a guiding spirit to travelers. He can take many forms, but no matter what form he’s in, two characteristics still remain: A top hat with stitches in it, and an X in his left eye. No one truly knows what his human form looks like, as most often, he’s seen in the form of a large, striped Velociraptor-like creature. Despite this scary default look, Abernathy is one of the most friendly ghosts in Lavenshade Mansion, and is happy to inform the living of what he knows.

Name: Amelia
Age: 8 (But has existed since 1902)
Gender: Female
Species: Alley Cat
Living or Dead?: Dead (Ghost)
Abilities: Traveling through walls, hiding within (but not possessing) things, telepathic speech
Description: Amelia is a lanky, skinny cat with silver spotted fur and odd-looking blue eyes. Amelia lived in an alley near a lonely old woman’s house, long ago. The old woman would feed her often, gave her the name Amelia, and eventually even adopted her. Only a few years later, however, old age took the old woman’s life, forcing Amelia to take back to the streets. She died after ingesting food from the trash laced with poison. In regards to others, Amelia is not a threat of any kind. Just, maybe a little creepy, startling, and curious.

 Name: Renn
Age: 10 (But has existed since 1888)
Gender: Female
Species: Despair Demon
Living or Dead?: Dead (Demon)
Abilities:  Turning into a shadow on the wall, teleportation within the mansion’s walls, causing despair in people by will
Description:  Renn is a small girl with grayish-while skin, glowing red eyes, messy long black hair, and usually large hands and claws. She wears a torn black dress made of rags, and has grown out a pair of tall ivory horns. Renn used to be a human, along with her father. They lived in Negloria oh so long ago, up until Renn’s father took to horrifically greedy behavior. Such actions invited demons into his house, where they led Renn’s father further astray, and attacked her. Both people became demons. Towards others, Renn is quiet and shy, but not hostile.

Name: Kuroneki
Age: ???
Gender: Presumably Male
Species: Being of Darkness
Living or Dead?: ???
Abilities: Controlling shadows on the wall, melting into shadows, temporarily blinding someone
Description:  Kuroneki is a large monster of around 10 or 11 feet who looks as if he is a living silhouette, with no features, and composed primarily of darkness itself. His eyes are a blood red, and he has what looks like pointy, jackal-like ears and large claws. Kuroneki is said to be a forest spirit who prowls around the mansion and the surrounding perimeter only during the night. Those who come in contact with him have never made it back the same, or to tell the tale at all…

Name: Ellysa
Age: 19 (Has existed for hundreds of years, apparently)
Gender: Female
Species: Human Warrior
Living or Dead?: Dead (Angel)
Abilities: Manipulating light, transforming into a dove
Description: Ellysa is a young warrior girl with long pale blond braids tied off with golden silk. Her eyes are a striking blue, and she’s usually seen wearing a white gown with some pieces of silver armor on her arms, legs, and even her feathery white angel wings. She carries a sword on her back with a worn leather strap. Ellysa is a brave soul, and greets the living with mostly open arms. She loves to test the strength of others, however, so beware when accepting any challenges from her. She hates being put into the “damsel in distress” role, however, her role at Lavenshade seems to be as such, since she can’t find a way to return to the Heavens…

Name: Negloria
Age: Looks about 5
Gender: Female
Species: Looks human…
Living or Dead?:
Abilities: ‘Tis a mystery, it seems…
Description: Negloria, who mysteriously shares the same name as the abandoned town nearby, is a small girl with pale skin, black hair down to her ankles, and pale, almost empty-looking lavender eyes. She wears a very fancy white dress, almost looking similar to a bride’s outfit on her wedding day. In her hair is a large purple and red bow, with ribbons that trail down to the middle of her back. Negloria is often spotted at the top floor of the mansion, in the window of the attic. It is said that she rarely goes down onto other floors, but sometimes, you could catch her. No one has ever “spoken” to Negloria. She seems only to talk to the ghost inhabitants of the Mansion, and confine herself to empty, secluded rooms. She does not seem hostile, but then again…everyone who’s ever attempted to move up to the top floor and catch her has never returned…

Name: Yorugiro
Age: Rumored to be over a millennia...
Gender: Presumably male (?)
Species: Creature of pure darkness (?)
Living or Dead?: We're not quite sure...
Abilities: Manipulating darkness, melting down into shadows on the floor, the rest are unknown...
Description: Yorugiro is a huge beast with a face similar to a halloween jack-o-lantern. A sinister red glow comes from deep within his body, illuminating his eyes and the inside of his mouth (also like a jack-o-lantern). In appearance, he looks like a large beast with gigantic claws and a tail similar to a scorpion's,believed to be filled with a serum that turns the affected into beasts such as him. He has spikes and horns jutting out from his whole body.
The one true mystery about Yorugiro is if he's behind the disappearances and curse of Lavenshade Mansion. It is rumored that Yorugiro isn't actually an evil creature at heart, but was afflicted with his own type of poison long ago, and was morphed into the beast he is now. Apparently, Abernathy has seen Yorugiro's true form...

Name: Yolani
Age: About 17 (Though she’s been around almost as long as Lavenshade Mansion…)
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Living or Dead?: Dead (Ghost)
Abilities: Sharing memories with people, floating through objects/walls, possession
Description:  Yolani is a petite, beautiful young girl with brown hair put up in a bun, smooth fair skin, and bright hazel eyes. She’s often seen wearing a lacy, ornate white dress, like a bridal gown of some sort, along with long, white silk gloves. Yolani was the daughter of Lavenshade Mansion’s original builder and owner. She’s said to know much about the mansion, but she’s one of the most elusive ghosts there. The only resident said to know where she might always be is Abernathy…

Name: Sylena
Age: 21 or so (Though it’s known that she’s existed possibly a century)
Gender: Female
Species: Succubus
Living or Dead?: ???
Abilities: Charming those of the opposite gender, taking on a demon form, unnatural speed
Description: Sylena, in her human disguise, has pale skin, silky shoulder-length brown hair in pigtails, and captivating ruby-red eyes. She’s usually spotted wearing a charming red evening gown, shiny black high-heels, and a headband with a small, ruby-adorned black top hat attached to it. Not a whole lot is known about Sylena, besides the fact that she’s often seen with Luxton. No one knows whether or not she’s condemned to Lavenshade Mansion or not, but it is known that she may have worked in the mansion long ago, and could have seen something important…

Name: Luxton
Age: 22, maybe (But he’s existed somewhere around a century)
Gender: Male
Species: Incubus
Living or Dead?: ???
Abilities: Charming those of the opposite gender, taking on a demon form, unnatural speed
Description: Luxton, in his human disguise, has pale skin, shiny black hair in a long-ish style, and captivating emerald-green eyes. He’s usually spotted wearing a suave dark-green tux made of silk, shiny black and white dress shoes, and a black hat with a large rim and a white ribbon around it. Not much is known about Luxton, besides the fact that he’s often hanging around Sylena. Nobody knows if he’s stuck within Lavenshade Mansion as all the other spirits are, but it is known that he may have played some kind of role in the mansion at some point in the years past, and could have seen something interesting…

Name: Myriatte
Age: Looks around 18 or so (Has existed for at least a couple centuries, however)
Gender: Female
Species: Demon (But looks human…)
Living or Dead?: Dead, as she had always wished…
Abilities: Hypnotism, taking on a monstrous demon form, short-range teleportation within the mansion’s walls
Description: Myriatte looks much like a human still, with pale skin, very long, dark reddish-black hair, and very beautiful blueish-green eyes. She can be seen most often wearing a long, formal dark blue skirt, a golden sash tied in a big ribbon at the back, and a white dress shirt with red ribbons.  She also has a thin golden ribbon wrapped around a forelock of her hair. Catch her at the right time, however, and you may see her wearing a sinister-looking black robe with blood-red inscriptions written all over it, walking around in the halls. Myriatte was a cult leader in her living days. She worked hard enough that, by the time she died, she was rewarded with the transformation into a wandering demon. It is unknown if Myriatte is condemned to Lavenshade Mansion as everyone else is, however, is IS known that she holds an important link to it. If you happen to wander into a room in the upstairs of the mansion painted red and filled with burnt-out candles, sinister-looking books, sharp utensils, and possibly even bones as well…turn back and make sure the door isn’t locked. Myriatte might be in your presence, and she won’t let a good sacrificial lamb go to waste…

Name: Penelope Lavenshade
Age: Looks around 13 or so (…but is she?)
Gender: Female
Species: Underworld spirit
Living or Dead?: ???
Abilities: Using her hair to attack people, leeching people’s minds for information in their sleep, becoming soundless, invisibility
Description: In her human disguise, Penelope is a sweet-looking, petite little girl with fair skin, long black hair, and dark eyes. She’s usually spotted wearing a standard girl’s school uniform with a navy-blue skirt, a white shirt with a red neckerchief, white knee-socks, and scuffed black buckle shoes. Though she looks sweet enough, Penelope is a monster to those she’s called upon to torture, as it is her job in the Underworld. She’s one of the few residents in the mansion who isn’t bound there, and it’s still unknown why she carries a last name that matches the mansion’s name. The last time anyone recorded seeing her was when she supposedly murdered a particularly prideful girl who boasted too frequently about her accomplishments…

Name: Jikanei
Age: Looks around 19 or so (But has existed for far longer...though, she can't say how much.)
Gender: Female
Species: Zeitgeist (""Time ghost"")
Living or Dead?: Dead (Spirit; never alive in the first place...)
Abilities: Skipping around in time (sometimes beyond her own control), enhanced agility, sending others through time, shapeshifting to fit the situation
Description: Jikanei, or ""Jiji"" as she likes to be called, isn't actually human, but takes on that form around living people. Her human form is that of a slightly shorter than average girl with glowing blue eyes and long, dark blueish-silver hair held in a ponytail halfway down by a tie seemingly made of a metal cuff and strange gems. Her outfit is a beige jumpsuit (with a few details here and there to make it a bit more ""girly""), scuffed gray boots, dark brown gloves, and silver goggles with clocks instead of lenses, which makes her look a bit like a pilot. Jikanei is known to be the sister of Father Time's assistant, Tokei. Like her sister, Jikanei is a cheerful person, though she's definitely less insane than Tokei. Jikanei isn't actually trapped in the mansion, and can go where she pleases...so why is she here?</font></div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Known</span> Abilities: Teleportation, turning her knife into any kind of blade she could want, super strength...
Description: Amaiyo looks...a little like a doll. She's a cute little black cat that stands on two legs, and wears a cinder-gray dress. She has but one blue eye, her right eye. The other was supposedly a green eye, but it was...lost, somehow, so now that part of her face is covered by a silken white bandage. It is said that anyone who dares to remove it will seal themselves into a horrible fate. In the only pocket of her dress, at the front, is a blood-covered knife, which Amaiyo can wield as any sort of blade she wishes. Around her neck is a beautifully weaved cord, made of 3 smaller beautifully weaved cords, all in different colors. She uses this as a neck ornament...but also to strangle or hang people. The little cat constantly has blood splatters on her left ear, the end of her tail, and all over her cream-colored angel wings, one of which is torn. Amaiyo's past is pretty much a mystery, as well as her purpose in Lavenshade Mansion. In fact, it's safe to assume that she's just there because she was passing by, and wanted to have a bit of fun...</font></div>"

Cadaver is the father of Klouille, as well as her boss, as the two run a small thief gang, consisting of themselves, and Klouille's pet, Little BatCat.

She wears a white blouse with a red ribbon on her collar, brown pants that reach just past her knees, a long dark gray button-up coat, purple and black boots, and quite a large top hat that covers her right horn. After she was born, Cadaver, her father, stole her from her mother and never, ever returned with her. As a result, Klouille is very attached to her father, taking after him in ways ranging from attitude, to powers, to even thoughts.

Klouille keeps a purple ribbon tied around the base of his four tails, (since you can't really fit a collar on something that doesn't appear to have a neck). BC is quiet, but absolutely loves sweets. He's often used for distractions during the schemes of Klouille and Cadaver.

She flinches a bit when he suddenly sticks out his hand to greet her. She blinks slowly.
'I thought that the ghosts were supposed to be INSIDE of this mansion...' Minako thinks to herself as she calms down a bit. She clears her throat.
""Um...hello. I'm Minako...and yes, I believe this is the mansion."" Minako nods in response. She looks behind the ghost and sees other very...uhm...interesting characters walking towards the mansion.
'Guess I'm not the only one who found out about this place...perhaps that's for the best. I'm not sure if I'd want to be here alone...' Minako thinks to herself again, right before she catches sight of someone else walking towards her, wearing a school uniform similar to hers.
""You're telling me, I-"" Minako begins with light conversation with this one person who actually looks relatively normal, but she's quickly interrupted by Joerose's interception of his path. She sighs helplessly.
'Maybe I should just...get everyone inside.' She says in her own thoughts, then turns to open the door. It creaks open with a painful, cringe-inducing noise. The inside of the mansion is fairly dark, as the only light coming through it at this time is the light that makes it through the trees of Shinkuro woods, and down through the windows.
Minako steps inside carefully. ""...Hello?""
""HI!""
""G-GYAH!"" Minako jumps back and almost trips down the stairs to the door when a huge set of sharp teeth comes way too close to her face.
""Oh, dear me! I do apologize! Please don't be frightened! I won't do you any harm. Here, I'll change my form for you, my dear."" Abernathy pleads with her, then shifts himself from a velociraptor with a top hat and an X'ed left eye to a large, fluffy rabbit with the same features. He steps out of the way of the doors, bowing. ""Please, do come in. It's been so long since I got to talk with outsiders!""
Minako is still a bit shaken, but in the end, she lets out another sigh, and forces herself forward into Lavenshade Mansion.</font></div>"

The demon girl whimpers with fright, her eyes glancing quickly back and forth from the group of newcomers to the rowdy angel.<br/>""Huh?"" The angel only notices the new people in the mansion after getting in position to lop off the demon girl's head. ""...Is this...a rescue party for me?""

""Ellie, it's okay, we're all stuck-"" Renn tries to calm the angel down a bit.
""QUIET!"" Ellysa points her sword back at the demon, but finds that there is now a human standing in her way. She blinks at Makoto for a moment, then laughs. ""Renn doesn't need saving! She just needs to grow a spine!"" The angel turns then to Riley with the same loud laughter. ""Fighting? We're just sparring, right Renn?""
""B-But...I told you I couldn't...I don't like fighting..."" Renn continues to cower behind Makoto.
""Tch, Renn, Renn, Renn. You'll never change with that attitude!"" Ellysa tsks, shaking her head.
""...I haven't changed in over 2 centuries. Why would I suddenly change now...?"" Renn murmurs.
""Uh, s-so, Ellysa, is it?"" Minako regains her composure, clearing her throat. ""You're an angel?""
""Yes! I was a warrior first, one of the only women, and one of the youngest!"" Ellysa boasts pridefully. ""I fought my way through many a battle valiantly! If that one slimy bastard hadn't used a cheat of his, I'd have at least lived a few more months on Earth!""
""And...you're trapped here? How'd you even get here from the Heavens?"" Minako frowns.
""I was sent down here for a girl as a guardian angel. Negloria. When I tried to make a gateway back to the Heavens, I found that it couldn't be opened. It's been 3 years now. I've kept sparring with Renn and others here daily to keep my strength up, so perhaps I can finally take on the fiend in this place's basement! I believe he's got something to do with this horrid curse...""
'Sounds important to note...' Minako thinks to herself while she listens.
""My apologies, friends!"" Abernathy's voice calls down from the stairs. He floats back down, but now he's back in his scarier dinosaur form again. ""I have returned! Ah, I see you've met Ellysa and Renn now!""
""What happened up there?"" Minako asks the cordial ghost.
""Ah, Negloria got upset about something. I went up there to comfort her.
""And...you did that in this form?"" Minako gives Abernathy a strange look.
""I don't know why, but she seems to prefer this form to anything soft of cuddly, like the rabbit I was earlier..."" Abernathy shrugs. ""If you'd like, I can change again for you, though, my dear guests.</font></div>"

I stormed down there as fast as I could. Almost lost my other arm in the process."" Ellysa unbuckles some of the armor covering her right shoulder, showing off a line of stitches in her skin. ""I know Renny doesn't like to fight, but I'm hopin' that one of these days, she'll be forced to fight back, and then she can get stronger too!""<br/>""Does this monster down there have a name...?""

Abernathy answers Minako's question more directly. ""He's a fiendish beast with a horrid temper. Personally, me and Negloria think he's behind people disappearing in this mansion.

The huge monster has absorbed a large amount of the light from Joerose's attacks into his own red glow within his body, and is using it to grow in size and power. His spikes scrape and puncture the walls ad the ceiling above him, and he prepares to lash out at Joerose and Fred with furious, deadly claws.

We have to call our spiritual partners here for help.""<br/>Abernathy scrapes himself back up from the floor again, brushing himself off. He looks back at the people on the stairs, only to notice something white standing behind Minako and Makoto.

Then, she too grew helplessly drowsy, curling up with her sword, and falling asleep as well. The only ones left trying to fight off sleep are Minako and Abernathy.<br/>""N...no....can't fall...asleep....not here...!"" Minako fights against her own body's impulse to shut down for rest, fearing what could happen if she fell asleep in a place such as this. What if Yorugiro were to become enraged once more before they could wake up? Even just a few seconds too late could seal everyone's fate. Abernathy seemed to share the same opinion, but he was losing the battle for consciousness as well.<br/>The one person, strangely enough, who seemed unaffected by the spell was Negloria.

Now visible, but also not, since no one else was fully awake, the small, eerie girl walks to Minako's side and takes her by the hand.

As she gets closer, though, a white glow begins to shine from underneath the red, and eventually undermines it completely. The power of the heavenly white glow allows Minako to open her eyes and see what looks like a frail, glowing white figure, curled up with its knees hugged tightly to its chest. The darkness stops pulling Minako forward, but it does start nipping at her ankles, and winding around her body. She floats right in front of the figure, less than a foot away. Suddenly, the figure stirs a bit, and uncurls itself some. Minako can see two hazel-colored lights where eyes should be on the figure, and what looks like brown hair tied up in a bun. The mysterious entity reaches out a gloved white hand to Minako, which she takes in her own. Minako lets out a sudden gasp of pain, and outside, Yorugiro lets out a roar. Despite the pain, Minako finds herself trying to pull the glowing white girl out of the dark, noticing Riley and Makoto behind her finally.

Waking up once again to the cold embrace of darkness, Makoto sees Minako interacting with extremely white figure, the only colors visible aside from the bright white a cool hazel and warm brown.

She nods slowly at the cat's words.
""No...she's not...I can...feel...it..."" Minako rasps out, continuing to drag the glowing figure away from the gravitational pull towards Yorugiro's glowing red center. Through sheer willpower, Minako manages to walk all he way out of the monster again, standing about 1 foot from out on the outside while tendrils of darkness still grasp at her. The white figure, still swathed in black near the bottom of her lovely white gown, slowly lets go of Minako's hand, and falls to her knees outside of the monster, finally free.
Yorugiro lets out a huge howl of pain, and his whole body ripples with the echo as Minako is sucked back into the dark of the beast.
Both her and Makoto are sucked more forcefully into the glowing red center of the shadowy monster. The pain intensifies, and it appears that both people are gaining strange glowing symbols on different parts of their bodies, like a mystical tattoo of some sort. Minako's appears just below her neck, and glows a bright magenta color...</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">Myriatte notices Lilly on the ground, hearing the hiss from the cat, though Lucas seems not to notice. Myriatte only gives the cat a quick glance, and says nothing aloud.
'So...the cat here is either anti-social...or it can already tell. Either way, is it of much importance? No...only if she gets in my way. I prefer human sacrifices, but I could extend my reach to animals as well, should it become necessary...' Myriatte thinks to herself before turning her attention fully onto Lucas's words. She keeps up her act with a modest girl's blush. ""Oh, why, thank you. I also go by just Myria. It's whatever you prefer. It's good to hear that there are more living people here besides me now! Oh, but...where are they? Don't tell me they're stuck down there in the basement with Yorugiro...!"" She fakes a gasp of horror, as well as a fearful, concerned look. Her true thoughts, however, speak to her in her mind, 'Hmm, if they <span class=""bb-i"">are</span> down there with Yorugiro, then I hope at least some of them survive. This boy here in front of me...he might make a good sacrifice, true. Not sure if he has what it takes to be a tadpole.

She might be crazy but she definitely knows how to fight and she'll protect her friends no matter what."" He picks up Lilly, puts her on his shoulder, stands up and walks away as quickly as possibly from this rather creepy girl.

""Fred please if you can hear me help me out I've got a bad vibe about this new girl."" Lilly stops hissing to send a message to Fred via spiritual contact.

She doesn't understand why, but she knows she's craving something different than regular food. She fades in and out of consciousness, and in the meantime, her new marking on her neck begins to glow bright pink, and it feels like her skin is suddenly aflame. Lines of the glow spread around the rest of her skin like veins, drowning her in the agonizing sensation. She breathes heavily, unaware that she's gotten onto her knees, holding herself up by shaky arms.<br/>""Miss? Miss, are you alright?"" Abernathy is alarmed immediately, as he leaves Yolani's side to be at Minako's.<br/>Minako can't reply with anything but sounds of pain, because her body is actually beginning to morph. Her skin becomes tougher, and a magenta color, and her eyes start to go green. With more glowing from her tattoo-like marking, the transformation is complete within a minute, and it's not pleasant. Instead of Minako, a large demon creature stands tall before the others in the basement, made of magenta, red, and russet-colored spikes and spines all around her body. The creature's face has a cat-like appearance, with large teeth and sharp, whisker-like appendages at the cheeks. She has a large pair of hostile-looking green eyes with no pupils, and then a smaller one above the original ones. Two big triangle-shaped appendages crown her head like cat's ears, and a line of curled spikes trails down from the back of her neck to the base of her 3 tails, which are basically 3 huge spider-ish legs, dark red in color. Her hands are two huge paws with 3 gigantic main claws, 4 smaller claws in between, and one claw coming out of the top of the paw itself. Her feet aren't much better, with two huge main claws, 3 smaller ones, and one at the back of each foot, like a raptor's talons.<br/>Abernathy steps back immediately.<br/>""What...w-what is...""

Are you sure you want to do that...?""<br/>Suddenly, before she can go on to say anything else, there's a horrific roaring noise from within the basement.

As he brings it to cover his right eye, the light begins branching out, both the strange energy and the black wisps simultaneously engulfing his body. After the bright light fades, standing in Makoto's place is a human-like creature, utilizing its own wings as a cloak. An eerie dark blue glow pulses like veins on his wings. He lets out a roar of his own as his cloak splits into two large black wings, revealing a monster that's prepared for combat, with retractable razor sharp claws on both hands and what appears to be retractable blades on the bottom of its feet. His body is covered in feathers, which although are soft to the touch are actually as tough as steel. The same go for its wings. The room itself seems to drop a few degrees in temperature at the creatures presence.

Hearing all the noise, she frowns, looking concerned.<br/>Of course, not for their wellbeing.<br/>""I'm going to miss all the fun..."" Myriatte voices her true concern with a huff. She watches Lucas slip past Fred and run down into the basement. By this time, she's had enough, and a wide grin spreads across her face.<br/>""Well, I guess you really aren't wrong. I am a bit like a frog. Why shouldn't I be, as the sole goddess of the Kerokuoni Cult?!"" She laughs crazily, then leaps almost impossibly high up for a normal person, much like a frog would. She hops over Fred, landing on one of the middle stairs, and rushes down into the basement. Her grin only gets bigger when she witnesses Minako and Makoto's monster forms.<br/>""Demons...demons of such wonderful, wonderful power! And they've come here!""

""It's the violent froggy sociopath...!""<br/>Minako lets out another screechy roar at being hit by Lucas, and from a lighter pink stripe running down the front of her body, more sharp spines spring out in defense to try and stab the attacking prey. She brings up a set of 8 claws and tries to swing at Lucas. Her attention is lightly caught by the sounds that accompany Makoto's transformation, and Joerose's attack on him.<br/>""Oh dear!"" Myriatte gasps as Makoto is sucked into the vortex with Joerose. For the first time in awhile, a deep, deathly scowl crosses Myriatte's face. Her beautiful blueish-green eyes glow bright with fury, as well as transformation. Suddenly, one of her arms is getting larger, and gaining bumpy, frog-like blackish-green skin, along with long claws. She grows a tail of the same color, which looks much like a tadpole's, save for the deadly spikes lining the sides. Myriatte puts on a jagged grin, and outstretches her transformed arm towards the scene.<br/>""MY TADPOLES, YOUR GODDESS COMMANDS THEE! RESCUE OUR BRETHREN! RETURN A SACRIFICE IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD, OR <span class=""bb-i"">DIE INSTEAD</span>!"" She cries aloud as two glowing red portals form at either side of her above. They open up, and multiple demon creatures, looking a bit like what Myriatte has started to transform into, but smaller, flood into the basement. The poor souls look as if they could have been human once...<br/>Most of the demon creatures go for Joerose's vortex, trying to claw at the opening to assist Makoto, as their goddess had commanded them. The rest are left to attack whoever looks worth it. Minako's instincts override her powerfully while she watches the creatures flood in. She can contain her hunger no more, and lunges at an unaware minion of Myriatte. After crunching down on it powerfully a few times, Minako swallows the creature whole. She feels a bit better, but not much. She wants more.<br/>Myriatte cares not for this, and only laughs aloud hysterically. ""YES! <span class=""bb-i"">YES</span>!

A noose hangs down from the rafters, and hanging just a few inches from the top of her head is a <font color=""#fff200"">fluffy pink demon plushie</font>. It's button eyes are black with red middles, and it has two tall ivory horns. It's black cape and arrow-shaped tail hang limp as it sways ever so slightly in the attic air.

Using this window of opportunity, he then brings his hands down upon the cracking vortex in hopes of smashing his way out. Fortunately, this seems to work, for he's able to break free and quickly fly up and out of the vortex. Almost immediately after breaking free, the winged nightmare swoops down and begins devouring Myriatte's minions, grabbing two at a time, and eating them one by one, feeding his extremely massive appetite.</div>"

She turns around, but before she can do anything, she's hit in the head with Fred's spatula. Everything slows down for the cult leading girl as she feels herself fall towards the floor. While her eyelids close, she swears that she's surrounded by water, and that it's filling up her lungs...again...<br/>""...Will...I'm...drowning again..."" She murmurs quietly before collapsing completely. She tries to hang onto her consciousness for as long as possible, while her arm and eyes revert to their more human-like state. In this strange limbo, Myriatte becomes vaguely aware of a large figure picking her up and carrying her out of the basement. Out of the dark water...<br/>""...Hah...I knew you'd..save me again, Will..."" Myriatte carries a light, almost innocent smile on her face before passing out completely.<br/>Meanwhile, the portals that Myriatte opened up for her ""tadpole"" followers have not closed yet, as she never commanded them to. Her demon minions are still hopping out in a steady stream, though without her strong presence and command there in the room, fewer decide to leap out and attack, or try to follow after Makoto.<br/>Minako takes advantage of these continuous cult follower demons, grabbing them up and devouring them with a ravenous quickness. After satiating her own appetite, she notices Makoto leaving with Myriatte, who, at this point, Minako has connected with being a food source from animalistic instinct. Minako roars again, gets down on all fours, and bounds past everyone to follow Myriatte's trail.<br/>""No!"" Ellysa growls. She turns to look over everyone still in the basement. ""Come on, then! We've got to go after them! We have to <font color=""#fff200"">figure out</font> how to get our friends back, right?!

""It's not too much for me to have to stop, but-""<br/>The two ghosts both stop and turn to look back down the stairs when they hear the mighty whooshing of wings below them, coming out of the basement. Abernathy floats back down in a hurry, able to just catch a glimps of Makoto and a limp Myriatte speedily flying away. Abernathy is startled.<br/>""M-Myriatte...!"" He mumbles. ""Was...was she dead...? No...not possible...""<br/>""Abernathy."" Yolani comes up behind him and places a gentle hand on his reptilian shoulder. ""Go on after them. You know I can handle Negloria...she is my sister, after all.""<br/>""...Alright then, Mistress Yolani."" Abernathy nods. He tips his hat to the young lady, then hastens off after Makoto and Myriatte.

A poster made of torn, slightly yellowed paper is tacked precariously onto the wall with a bent screw, as if someone, having nothing else to hang up this precious poster with, desperately tried to make use of the screw in the place of a nail. The odd thing is, there are only 7 N's on the poster, all different colors, lined up vertically on the paper. One is crossed out.<br/>"".....<font color=""#fff200"">Why</font>...""

Sensing someone following him, he stops just outside the mansion's limits, gently setting his new master down on the ground beside him as his wings fold back into a cloak, a low growl sounding from his throat. ""Back off...she's mine!"" He says, his voice sounding rather warped, the air becoming slightly colder as he becomes at bit hostile towards those that approach him. Although, when he sees Minako approaching him, he extends a hand in a sort of invitation to her. ""Join me..you're just like me...refuse and you'll join the others in a cold, icy death!"" He snaps, not seeming like himself at all, the strange power seemingly overwhelming one who is so used to having command over countless spirits. It seems this is doing Makoto no favors.

She moves a bit in her sleep, but not much. She becomes faintly aware of herself being put onto a solid surface, presumably ground, and the loud voices above her. It sets off a torrent of memory...<br/><span class=""bb-i"">""MARYANNE RIVERLENN, I DEMAND AS YOUR FATHER THAT YOU STOP THIS FOOLISHNESS IMMEDIATELY!"" Her father's anger. ""Your job to our family is to think about MARRIAGE! Not this...this USELESS ACTIVITY!""<br/>""John! JOHN, STOP!"" Her mother's pleas. Not enough...<br/>SMACK!<br/>Myriatte's cheek burns and tingles from the hit to the face, and she falls onto the ground. Pages of writing and a precious pen fall with her, covering that area of the room in floating, white figures, like feathers, or dying butterflies...<br/>The frail girl trembles, partially facedown on the floor to avoid anymore slaps, or the pitying gaze of her disgustingly helpless mother, or her angry, ignorant, idiotically limited father...<br/>""Will.....Will..."" She murmurs ever so quietly, the only word coming to her mind.</span><br/>""....Will..."" Myriatte murmurs in her sleep now, outside of the mansion with this beast at her side.<br/>Abernathy hears this tiny, familiar voice, and he feels his ghostly heart being squeezed. ""Myriatte! Myriatte...I..I'm right here! Wake up, please! Come back!""<br/>Abernathy takes a step to move towards her, back he's sent back about 3 more steps when Makoto growls out his threat. Of course, then he's gotten closer than comfort to the other beast approaching, Minako. She growls at him, but doesn't seem like she's particularly targeting him, as she just strolls right on by to face Makoto and Myriatte.<br/>Minako's ears twitch a bit as she listens to what Makoto has to say. She replies in her own sort of warped, growly voice, ""It is true...I am like you...and you have the source of food...""<br/><span class=""bb-i"">'This is bad!'</span> Abernathy thinks to himself as he stands by, watching the scene. <span class=""bb-i"">'If these two, in their monstrous state, join forces, what will they resolve to do to everyone else?

He's prepared to shift forms if he needs to, though he'd rather not resort to fighting on this one. ""You've got to snap out of this! For the sake of us all, please! You're not monsters like this. I know I might not know you as well as others could, but I understand that your intentions cannot be that bad, if you were willing to walk all the way out here just to unravel Lavenshade's mystery, and help us!""<br/><span class=""bb-i"">'It's a stretch. I really don't know them, or their true intentions...but I believe...I've got to believe!'</span> Abernathy thinks to himself in secret.<br/>""...Will.......!"" Myriatte mumbles again, a little louder this time. Is she close to awaking...?</font><br/><font color=""#7bcdc8"">Ellysa is already making her way towards the front door of the mansion when she hears an explosion from back down below, in the basement. ""HARK! Is everything alright down there?!"" She calls. She wants to go back and help them, the angel in her begs to, but upon hearing the growls of monsters outside, and Abernathy's cries, she makes the decision to head outside, still within the mansion's limits, to help her friend. She runs out of the doors and into the Mansion's front yard, which is fenced off. She's aware that she cannot go past the fence bordering this house. If she tries...there will be dire consequences. However, the situation still lies in her favor this day, as Abernathy, Myriatte, and the two beasts are just a little ways from the mansion, within the fence's limits.<br/>""Abernathy! I've come to help you, friend!"" Ellysa calls, raising her sword.</font><br/><font color=""#a187be"">Negloria doesn't say a word in reply to Lilly's comment about cats. She's silent again, looking down at the ground in front of the poster. It's almost as if she wants to say something...but just can't grasp the words.<br/>""Negloria...?""<br/>The little girl raises her head slowly when a familiar voice calls out to her. On the very top stair, a shining ghost in a lovely white dress, white gloves, and brown hair in a bun, stands with her soft hazel eyes on Negloria. She takes a few steps into the doorway of the room, careful not to trip over Lilly or Riley. She even smiles down at the two cats.<br/>""Ah, excuse me..."" Yolani bows to the two cats before turning back to Negloria, who has turned to meet the older girl's eyes.<br/>""Neggie...you helped me again, didn't you...?"" Yolani asks gently. ""You...you pushed that girl and her friends into the dark, just to pull me out...again...""<br/>""...No."" Negloria shakes her head. ""....Just the girl...her heart...was strong....I didn't push the others....just her.""<br/>""...Neggie..."" Yolani looks as if she might start crying a bit. ""...Why? I...don't deserve it.

Makoto, hearing Abernathy's desperate plea, feels a sharp pain in his head, causing to him howl slightly in pain as he grips his head. Before long, he stops shaking, and allows his hands to fall by his side as a bright light begins to envelope him once again. In a time frame that appears to be as lengthy as the snap of a finger, Makoto is back to his normal self. This time however, he is holding what appears to be a pistol to his temple, smirking as he does so. ""Sorry to keep you waiting..but I'm back...Rakshasa!""

Myriatte is getting up from the ground.<br/>"".....Will."" She says a final time, staring Abernathy straight in the face. Her eyes seem different. They're the same, beautiful blueish-green eyes, but within them, there's a different person. This isn't the Myriatte that just planned to sacrifice one of the living guests of the mansion...something within her soul has switched gears.<br/>""Master..."" Minako growls, moving closer to her side. ""Are you injured...? Shall I deal with-""<br/>""No. You are not...y-you shouldn't be under my control. It is as Abernathy says. As...Will says. You are no monster, you are a friend to those here. You want a command? Then heed my call, and revert back into your normal form!

She lets out a cry of pain, and just as Makoto has, she reverts back into her normal self once more. It takes her a moment to recuperate from what just happened, but within a minute or so, she's standing up again, next to Makoto and his summoned spirit. Of course, Minako takes note of how calm and collected Myriatte suddenly is. It doesn't look as if she's willing to put up any fight anymore.<br/>""Myriatte..."" Abernathy returns her gaze, looking quite grave.<br/>"".......You...do you think I should just leave now?...Or, should I tell them...?"" Myriatte asks.<br/>""I think...it would be good for you to tell them."" Abernathy shakes his head. ""It might help you form more of a connection with these people. You might be less likely to kill them then.""<br/>""You know that's not true..."" Myriatte smiles sadly. ""But...alright. I'll go on with the tale."" She turns to Makoto and Minako, and takes a deep breath before she starts.<br/>""My name...is Maryanne Riverlenn."" Myriatte says. ""I was the daughter of a well-off family, many centuries ago, right over there in Negloria Town. In the 1700's, to be more exact...I was the only child, and much was expected of me.""<br/>""Your name isn't...Myriatte?"" Minako murmurs.<br/>""It is."" Myriatte laughs lightly. ""It's...my writing name. You see...people liked me, despite the fact that I was richer than most. Not only because I was pretty...but, I told wonderful stories. I wanted so desperately to be a writer. However...as the only child, and daughter, of my family, my father was dead set on only educating me in the ways of a housewife. He would get angry if I said I wanted anything else of myself. So...I'd often sneak to school for lessons. Everyone liked me, as I said, so, it wasn't a problem. It was just...when he found out. And, somewhere in the middle of all this....I met Will.""<br/>""Will?"" Minako echoes.<br/>""Yes. Will. Also known as William Abernathy, or simply Abernathy."" Myriatte explains. ""I suppose he already told you of his writing past, yes? Well..after he became a ghost, he started traveling around, acting as a guide and friend to people. Isn't that right, Will?""<br/>""Indeed."" Abernathy grins softly. ""'Tis a pleasure of mine.""<br/>""Will encouraged me in my dreams of being a wonderful author. He was such a wonderful friend...that, I didn't even notice he was a ghost, until...until that day."" Myriatte's tone becomes darker as she goes on. ""That one day...the one that changed everything.""<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">""MARYANNE RIVERLENN, I DEMAND AS YOUR FATHER THAT YOU STOP THIS FOOLISHNESS IMMEDIATELY!""

JOHN, STOP!""<br/>He slapped me in the face, and I fell, releasing my precious pages of writing as well. As they scattered about, I trembled on the floor for a bit. Then, I pushed myself back up with the courage to speak out having finally made itself known within me.<br/>""Just because YOU don't believe I can become more than a little housewife, doesn't mean that I have to be limited as I am in your own head! I am free to do what I feel I was always meant to, Father!"" I screamed back. ""I believe in myself, the town believes in me, and even Will right there! HE believes in me as well!""<br/>""Who is this will you keep talking about?! Have you gone mad, girl?!"" My father barked back.<br/>""HE'S STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!"" I shouted back. Indeed, it was true. Will was standing right next to my father in the room. However...I was the only one who could see him.""<br/>""Maryanne, there's NO ONE HERE!"" My father waved an arm around in Will's space. It went right through him, and I went silent with shock.<br/>""W...W-Will?"" I whimpered.<br/>""...I'm sorry, Myriatte."" Will told me quietly. ""...I'm dead.""<br/>I was too shocked to speak, and in those seconds of confusion, my father had already decided his course of action. I was to be locked in my room until they found a suitable husband to pass me off to. They figured that maybe marriage was the cure for this ""madness"" caused by writing that I seemed to possess. I had many fine admirers, but I wasn't interested in that. I wanted nothing more than to be a great author...<br/>Finally, I'd had enough. While Abernathy wasn't watching me, I opened up the window to my room, and escaped that way. Under the cover of darkness, I ran until I reached the nearby river.<br/>""Riverlenn...how fitting my name is, for the fate I've chosen. If only my writing tools hadn't been confiscated...I'd have written such a lovely suicide note."" I remember murmuring that to myself with a sarcastic smile, before diving in and letting the currents overtake me. Much to my surprise, before I could lose all life, someone pulled me out of those cold waters. Will.<br/>""But...I thought...you were dead...a...a ghost."" I sputtered and coughed while regaining myself. Will knelt at my side the whole time.<br/>""I am. However, I've formed a bond with you, my dear. My pure will...through my will alone, I was able to grasp you, as if I were alive once more."" Will told me with a kind smile.<br/>""Through your own will, huh...? How funny, ""Will""...I...appreciate it...but...I can't return home. I don't want this life that is being imposed on me. I have to do something to change this, or I have to die. That is simply how it is."" I was dead set on doing whatever I cold to defy my father's wishes of me.<br/>Right then, I saw something out of the corner of my eye. A frog...hopping on the opposite side of the river. I swear then, this frog looked straight at me. I had an idea. A brilliant one, which showed through the bright smile on my face.<br/>""Will...Will! I've had a wonderful idea, Will! I know what I can do to save myself now."" I stood up as if nothing was wrong, even though I was completely soaked. Will stood up with me, looking curious.<br/>""What would that be? Is Myriatte making her grand appearance once more?"" He chuckled.<br/>""Something like that..."" I giggled.<br/>From there, I didn't return home, but hid at a friend's house. I wrote up a story. No...it was more like a script. I had a plan to get rid of my admirers, and to prove to my father just how much influence my writing could have on people. That...is when I started the Kerokuoni Cult, a cult with a ""frog demon"" as it's supreme authority. I thought that, by making everyone believe the wild stories I'd made up for the god of such a cult, and displaying such a thing out to everyone, specifically those men, I'd drive them away, and prove just how clever of a writer I was.<br/>...Sadly, it didn't quite work out that way.<br/>I made the cult, and I got my admirers to follow through with me through all the silly rituals enriched by me well-written legends tying back to the fake cult...but, never once did they question a thing. Never. They kept following me, no matter what I said. Eventually...I wrote more on the backstory, and that's when things got violent. We started with animals. I demanded an animal sacrifice. I thought that surely, surely they wouldn't do it....but they did it, no questions asked. First it was a rabbit, then a dog, then a goat, and eventually, even a horse. I thought there was only one card left to play...so I did. I demanded a human sacrifice next. I knew that had to be it, and that they'd never do it.<br/>...B-but...they murdered a village girl, right in front of my feet, as an offering. I was shocked. Something inside of my mind snapped. I became...different. I started to enjoy the power of controlling and determining the fates of the living in Negloria Town. I enjoyed it while I could, though I knew that the final purpose for this cult was soon to be fulfilled. I was to get rid of all of my admirers, right?<br/>...But now, I'd rewritten everything. Now, I got rid of them, not by driving them away...but by requesting their hands, and demanding them all as a grand and final sacrifice.<br/>I was discovered under the full moon in the Kerokuoni Cult hideout. Blood covered my robe like red flowers, blooming everywhere about me. Everyone was dead at my feet, and a knife was clutched in my left hand. I remember cackling like a madwoman when the authorities rushed me. I didn't attack them. I was through. I'd finished my mission.<br/>The next day, in the afternoon sun, I was shown off to everyone in town on a stand. My wits had returned to me again, but I still smiled so sweetly at everyone, no matter how disapproving or fearful their faces were of me. A rope was placed around my neck.<br/>""Maryanne Rivelenn, you have been found guilty in the crime of murdering many innocent people, and are certain to rot in Hell as soon as you leave us here in a few moments. Do you have anything you'd wish to say before leaving?"" The town official next to me seemed so angry...but I only laughed.<br/>""Yes..."" I looked out into the crowd, and locked eyes with Will, who stood at the front with a mortified, miserable expression. ""...Will, look. I did it. I made a story that impacted everyone's lives! I made a difference...with my writing, I made a difference!"" I was aware of the tears that began streaking down my face as I continued to watch Will's own horrified face. ""I'm...finally a writer now, aren't I?...Guess I always was...but...hey, Will...how did you like it? My story...so far...? I-AH!"" I let out a small cry of surprise when the ground beneath me disappeared, and the lynching commenced.<br/>Will was silent, stricken with horrid grief. He took off his top hat and clutched it in his hands. I felt horrible, having him watch me fade away like that. I could only hope...that maybe I could become a ghost like him, with him, and we could continue being such good friends...<br/>....But, then...something roared up inside of my very soul, and pinpricks of pain spread through every vein of my body. I felt the madness creeping in at an alarming rate. I couldn't stop it. Suddenly, I was laughing in the faces of terrified townsfolk, the very ones who had used to care so much for me, dead, but also not. I had become the great demon goddess of my own written creation.<br/>""Don't worry...the story isn't over yet!"" That's the last thing I can recall myself saying before finding myself surrounded by corpses once more. I'd taken out all who hadn't managed to flee the scene of the lynching in time. I was truly a demon. My changed skin and claws at that time...they proved it to me.<br/>Will had watched in horror the whole time. I walked up to him, and he just looked so...sad. I swear, there were even...ghostly tears upon his face.<br/>""I'm...sorry, Will...you shouldn't have had to see that...but...the fact that you haven't left me....oh, you're such a good friend."" I hugged him, and I was happy to actually be able to feel him. We were both dead now, so there wasn't that issue anymore, it seemed...<br/>""Myriatte...why...?"" Will asked me quietly.<br/>""I...don't...know...."" I remember biting my lip, thinking as if I were struggling against another force. Whatever it was...it ended up winning. I ended the confrontation with a crazy grin and laugh.<br/>""I must go now...my cult members need me, Will!""</span></font><br/><br/>""....Ever since then, I've traveled the world of the living as myself...but under a curse."" Myriatte finally draws her tale to a close, using her sleeves to wipe away the tears that has been conjured up during the retelling of the story. ""I...I know it's not long, now. Before I lose my wits again. I'll probably still try to attack you all, despite all of this...I'm...sorry...""<br/>Minako is almost at a loss for words after hearing the tale. She thinks for a moment, then, finally, while she has the chance, she asks, ""Myriatte...I guess I know...that you're here in this place because of Abernathy...but...what connection do you share with it? Someone like you...you must know something about what happened to the people of Negloria Town, and why all of the ghosts are trapped in this mansion.""<br/>""...Someone I've always chased after in my maddened state...is Negloria."" Myriatte answers. ""...I've always tried to sacrifice her to myself, it seems...and there must be some kind of reason for that....t-there must be...<font color=""#fff200"">why her</font>, and not anyone else...?""</font><br/><font color=""#7bcdc8"">Ellysa frowns at the scene a bit, looking almost disappointed that she won't get to ride upon this magnificent new steed and save the day for everyone, like a true warrior. She glances down at Fred, unsure of how to handle this situation. But then...a voice sounds out near them, up the pathway leading to the mansion's front doors.<br/>""Oh, what do we have here? Such a nice little place...and there's people here?""<br/>Ellysa turns her head, and catches a glimpse of the little black cat creature on two legs, walking calmly up to the place. It only takes that glance, the sight of that one blue eye, that knife, those wings, and all of that blood...<br/>""RUN."" Ellysa tells Fred. ""RUN. We need to RUN. NOW. N-normally, a warrior would never flee, unless the situation was of certain death...b-but, this...this very well could be!""<br/>Amaiyo watches the other angel on the yard for a moment, but never stops her stride towards Lavenshade Mansion's front doors. She grins and waves at Ellysa. ""Hello there, fellow angel~!""<br/>""G-GAH! She's spotted us!"" Ellysa continues to panic.<br/>""Hm...?"" Amaiyo finds the other angel's behavior a bit odd. ""What...is she scared of me? Aw...tch, every time, I swear..."" The little cat in the dress sighs sadly.</font><br/><font color=""#a187be"">""They took you away, and I did nothing to prevent that! How could you...how can you still even bother to protect me, the way you do...?"" Yolani begins to sob, falling on her knees in front of the little girl. Negloria watches her older sister for a long, painful while...then slowly walks up to her, and embraces her.<br/>""....It's okay....Yoli...It's not your fault..."" Negloria whispers.<br/>""N-Neggie..."" Yolani weeps.</font></div>"

Myriatte puts a hand to her face, covering half of it in an attempt to mask the mad grin making it's way back onto her expression.<br/>""I believe it's time you went back to your room, my dear..."" Abernathy looks down upon the girl sadly. Myriatte cackles madly for a moment, but furiously shakes her head at the same time.<br/>""Y...Y-yes, Will...I...I should...go...b-before....ehehehe!"" She covers her face completely with both hands, tears slipping through the cracks in her fingers while she laughs crazily. She runs off in a hurry, disappearing back inside of the mansion. Abernathy sees her off with a depressed, solemn expression.<br/>""That girl..."" Abernathy sighs, shaking his head. ""If only...""<br/>""Hello!""<br/>Suddenly, a new, cute little voice it at the group's side. Minako and Abernathy turn to see Amaiyo in front of them. Abernathy is immediately taken aback, backing up a few steps, and looking even paler than his ghostly self already was.<br/>""A-...A-A.....A...."" Abernathy is absolutely quaking with fear. Minako looks completely confused.<br/>""Abernathy? What's wrong?"" Minako asks.<br/>""I'm sorry. It's my fault..."" Amaiyo sighs dejectedly. ""Everyone's scared of me...""<br/>""You don't look that scary to me...I mean, there's some blood on you, yeah...but, it's not so bad."" Minako replies, and in the background, Abernathy lets out a cry of shock at the oblivious girl, and starts hurriedly making a ""NO, STOP"" motion with his hands.<br/>""It's because I'm also an Angel of Death. A rather notorious one."" Amaiyo continues, looking up at Minako with that one, adorably big blue eye. ""But, I promise, I don't actively seek out victims!...I just do what I feel I have to...I'm only here because I saw people, and wanted to have some fun...""<br/>""Well...as long as you aren't seeking out people to murder just for the fun of it, and are sticking with what your job commands, I really don't see the issue."" Minako smiles lightly down at the cute little cat angel. ""What's your name? I'm Minako.""<br/>""I'm Amaiyo, miss!"" Amaiyo's one eye glitters with happiness at Minako's words. She reaches out a paw to the human girl. ""Let's be friends! Please!""<br/>""Heh, alright then..."" Minako shrugs, and bends down the little angel's paw, since she stands at only about 1 foot tall. At that moment, a small beetle lands on Minako's back. She doesn't notice, but little Amaiyo does.<br/>""Oh! Friend, there's a bug on your back! Don't worry! As your friend, I'll get it for you!"" Amaiyo grins. Before Minako can say anything else, the angel takes her little knife out of her pocket, and holds it out. Suddenly, it changes into the form of a huge scythe, which curves around Minako's entire body. It Amaiyo were to pull back towards herself sharply, it'd bisect Minako and kill her. Pulling back is exactly what Amaiyo does, but she stops right when the blade touches Minako's back. Minako it still and silent, looking a bit uneasy, and extremely tense. Amaiyo giggles, and shift the blade back into its regular little knife form, holding it up for Minako to see the dead bug's corpse on it, its body bisected instead of hers, thankfully.<br/>""I got it, see?"" Amaiyo looks so proud of what she's done. ""I'm really a good friend when you get to know me!""<br/>""Y-yeah..."" That's really the only reply that Minako can muster up, still a bit surprised at what just happened.<br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Guess that's what I get for making friends with anyone around here...'</span> She thinks to herself.</font><br/><font color=""#7bcdc8"">Ellysa jumps off of Fred once they get inside of the mansion, and hurries away to warn others of Amaiyo's appearance. It could mean anything. She could be here to claim a ghostly resident for the underworld, or kill one of the new living people here. Or, she could just be here to 'play'. Ellysa wasn't sure which reason scared her more.<br/>Aimlessly wandering around in one hall of the mansion, Renn has a look of boredom and depression to her. Of course, that's sort of her default expression, as a Despair Demon.<br/>""REEEEEENNNNNNNNNNN!""<br/>Renn is caught by surprise when she spots her angel friend rushing down the hall towards her.<br/>""Ellysa? Ellysa, what's-AH!"" Renn cries out in surprise when Ellysa grabs her by the shoulders and shakes her a bit.<br/>""RENN! THE ANGEL OF DEATH IS HERE! AMAIYO! NO ONE IS SAFE ANYMORE!"" Ellysa shouts.<br/>""A-Angel of Death....?!"" Renn blinks. ""W-why...?""<br/>""I DON'T KNOW, THAT'S THE SCARIEST PART, IS THAT I DON'T KNOW!"" Ellysa replies. ""But, don't fear, Renn! Don't panic! I shall protect you 'til the bitter end!"" Ellysa raises her sword in the air.<br/>""...I...think you're panicking more than me...."" Renn murmurs quietly.</font></div>"

She's unfamiliar with such kindness from strangers, but she gladly accepts it. She puts her paw in Makoto's hand, and purrs when Lucas decides to pet her.<br/>""Of course I'm with you all! I promise, I won't abandon you, friends!"" Amaiyo nods. At this point, Abernathy has pretty much <font color=""#fff200"">just given up</font>, his head resting in his hands as he shakes it in the background of the scene.<br/>Amaiyo is so happy, and sounds so innocent right now, that, in addition to her cute looks and little voice, she would seem almost harmless to those who don't know better.<br/>....But that's about to change.<br/>Suddenly, a growl is heard from father down the pathway leading up to the mansion. Amaiyo and Minako turn to see a particularly large, hostile-looking wolf, with gray fur and eyes that, for some reason, glow a dark red. It's extremely obvious that it isn't friendly in the slightest, unlike Amaiyo seems to be.<br/>""Wolves? Here?"" Minako looks a bit surprised, but then she remembers, ""Oh, yeah...that's right. I had to fight a wolf on my way up to the mansion...but, this wolf doesn't look like any regular wolf. We should probably exercise caution in-""<br/>""You wanna play, puppy? Alright then, but you'll have to play with me~!"" Amaiyo is already skipping down the yard to meet up with the slavering beast before Minako can even finish her statement.<br/>The beastly wolf lets out another growl, and races towards the dainty little cat angel, with teeth at the ready to clamp down and shred mercilessly into whatever they touch. At the last second, however, Amaiyo grabs the fur underneath the wolf's chin with one paw, and flips it completely over her head with extreme ease, leaving it to slam back-first onto the ground behind her. She sways happily from side to side, humming, seeming to actually be waiting for her opponent to get up again. The wolf gets back up in a few seconds, shaking itself off, and then going for another attack while the angel has her back turned.<br/>""Got-cha~!"" Amaiyo whips around incredibly fast, sticking her little knife into the wolf's chest. The attack obviously doesn't do a whole lot, but the 1 second pause of surprise that the beast gives is just enough for Amaiyo to shift her blade's form into that of a huge sword with branching spikes, which stab through almost every side of the wolf. She then turns her knife back to it's normal, small size, so the beast's body can fall to the ground. Though she's definitely won, Amaiyo isn't done yet. Next, the shifts her knife's form again, this time into a pair of huge scissors with jagged-edged blades. Then she unhooks them, so that she's got a blade for each paw. Amaiyo tosses the wolf's body high up into the air, and flies up after it with her wings. When she gets there, she starts slashing with her blades, faster than the eye can follow.<br/>Amaiyo uses her wings to land daintily on her feet, and the wolf's body lands behind her....in tiny, bleeding diced cubes of fur and meat. She puts the scissors back together, turns her knife back to normal once more, puts it in her pocket, then picks up a couple of the wolf cubes and actually eats them.<br/>""Sorry! No eating my friends~! Though, you're pretty delicious! Maybe you should've eaten yourself, or YOUR friends!"" Amaiyo giggles. She turns back around, skips back up to her new friends, and beams up at them all happily. Minako is silent for a minute while she tries to take in everything she just saw.<br/>""U-Um..."" Abernathy, having lowered his hands to watch everything, now clears his throat to speak as he moves away towards the mansion's front doors. ""P-perhaps now might be a good time to go back inside...before any more poor unfortunates can feel the wrath of-....er, I mean, before we get attacked by any more wolves.""</font></div>"

Amaiyo grins cheerfully, waving at the two girls.<br/>In front of the group, Ellysa stands, holding her sword in one hand, and holding Renn under her other arm, probably not with her consent by the embarrassment on Renn's face.<br/>""Ellie, w-would you mind putting me down before you do anything too serious with this whole thing...?"" Renn pleads with her friend, but Ellysa is too focused on Amaiyo. She points her sword at the cat angel's direction.<br/>""I will not be taken down into the underworld! Neither will Renn, or anyone else here for that matter! I won't allow it without a fight!"" Ellysa announces.<br/>Amaiyo blinks up at the angel girl, then giggles. ""Oh, silly other angel! I'm not here on any business as of right now. I just came here because I thought it'd be fun to hang around with all of the ghosts and stuff.""<br/>""W...what?"" Ellysa looks dumbfounded as she lowers her sword to the ground.<br/>""It's true...in fact, she just stopped a wolf from attacking our living guests outside....with the...utmost efficiency..."" Abernathy says the last part with a bit of unease. Amaiyo beams at the statement.<br/>""Ah...I...see..."" Ellysa looks disappointed.<br/>""Looks like you conjured up all of that bravery for nothing....sorry..."" Renn murmurs.</font><br/><font color=""#00a99d"">From an indoor balcony, overlooking the ground floor, a couple of new faces overlook the people below with grins that almost look...sly.<br/>""What adorable new people we have here...they look alive, save for a few. Unless, those are just more ghosts here that I haven't seen yet."" The girl, wearing a red dress and pigtails with a matching little top hat, leans in with her elbows on the rail. ""What do you think about the little dears, Luxton...?""<br/>""The look like odd souls...but, we've worked with stranger, now, haven't we?"" The boy next to her, in a smooth green suit and a matching hat with a wide rim accompanied by a long feather at the side, traces circles <font color=""#fff200"">on the rail </font>idly with a finger. ""Should we go down to meet them now, Sylena?""<br/>""We'll see. I don't know, I kind of like watching the cuties from up here like this...but, they're bound to notice us soon. They look smart."" Sylena giggles in response.<br/>""Ah, yes...but, if they don't notice us soon, I'm afraid I might not be able to stand staying up here, apart from them like this..."" Luxton nods with a small grin.</font></div>"

Sylena purrs.<br/>""Excitement? Please, just wait until we get down there."" Luxton winks down at the group on the ground floor in response to Abernathy. He then takes Sylena's hand, and both of them climb up to stand on the railing. The two jump down, but before they can hurt themselves, they release their pairs of wings, landing perfectly in front of the group.<br/>""Greetings, our adorable new guests...."" Sylena giggles, moving a bit closer to Makoto. ""I knew for certain when I saw you that you were a sharp one...and I find sharp ones to be quite interesting, myself. My name is Sylena. Enjoying the mansion?""<br/>In turn, Luxton moves a bit closer to Minako. He holds out a palm to her. ""I also had a feeling you were the same way, dear. Though, you seem a little out of it, here. Perhaps I can help you adjust to this all a bit easier, if you'd honor me so by letting me. My name is Luxton.""<br/>During this whole exchange, Abernathy stands by, looking as if he's both unamused, and completely unwilling to play along.<br/>""No. No to both of you.""

Minako thinks she probably already knows the answer...but, she might as well hear it from a more reliable source.<br/>""Luxton is an Incubus. Sylvena is a Succubus.""

If she were any hungrier, though, such a thing might not be possible. ""My name is Minako. It's...good to meet you as well."" She smiles just a bit at the incubus in front of her now with a nod. Mentally, she's decided that maybe things will be easier if she just acts friendly towards all of the residents here, unless they come off as immediately hostile. Probably a good plan of action.<br/>""Ah, a truly beautiful name for a beautiful lady."" Luxton smiles as her, taking her hand and kissing the top of it. ""I hope we all get along just fine here, for the duration of your stay in this place...""<br/>""Well, as long as they act like friends, I'll treat them as such too!"" Amaiyo grins.<br/>""Right..."" Abernathy sighs a bit.<br/>When Lucas enters, Sylena and Luxton turn to hear what he has to say, and Sylena gasps.<br/>""Oh! Please, don't ignore us! That'd make me oh so very sad....""

Luxton winks again, though he's now looking at Minako instead of Lucas.<br/>The Incubus and Succubus turn once more to listen to what Ater has to say.<br/>""Hm, wow...seems like the living investigation group is 3 cute guys to one girl. Perhaps I've got my work cut out for me, this time around..."" Sylena laughs. ""Ah, but on the subject of the mansion...we do know some important things. Rather...we <span class=""bb-i"">saw</span> some important things.""<br/>""True, it seems there's only one living girl here for the moment, but I'd argue to say that she's the best..."" Luxton chuckles, then nods at Sylena. ""Yes. It's also worth mentioning that...Myriatte left something quite important out of her story.""<br/>""Wait...were you watching us out there?"" Minako asks. She never felt the presence of any other demons outside, besides Myriatte and Makoto...<br/>""Not quite. It's just...we've heard the story before. On top of that...you do realize there's <font color=""#fff200"">over 100 souls trapped</font> here, don't you, dear? Someone's always watching you, listening in, and news spreads quickly. Of course...the <font color=""#fff200"">most active of the ghosts here</font> spreading news is <font color=""#fff200"">Amelia</font>."" Luxton replies.<br/>""That's quite true. She's fast, active, and she was the one who made me aware of your arrival, guests..."" Abernathy adds.<br/>""I think she let Myriatte know as well. Not with any <font color=""#fff200"">malicious intent</font>, though. I <font color=""#fff200"">think the cat is incapable</font> of such things. She's far too innocent for that.

I mean, I'm not assigned to. Not yet. I'm not assigned to go after anyone at the moment...""<br/>""Well, I'll support that view, for the most part."" Abernathy nods at Makoto's statement on other ghosts being aware of the investigation group's presence. ""Most of the ghosts here aren't particularly hostile...just, maybe not so trusting. Though, those few that are hostile...well, I hope I can at least be by your side for such inevitable encounters...""<br/>Sylena giggles delightedly at Makoto's words directed at her, a small grin making it's way across her face. ""How sweet of you to say, darling...""<br/>""So...can you tell us what you know about this whole mystery, then?"" Minako smiles politely at Luxton.<br/>""Ah, a girl with manners! Just my type."" Luxton winks at Minako, then clears his throat and gets a bit more serious. ""Yes, we'd be happy to tell you lovely people what we've experienced. Sylena, you should start. It always makes more sense when you do.""<br/>""Gladly."" Sylena nods in agreement before beginning her tale in a more serious tone as well. ""You see...Luxton and I found Negloria town when individually looking for places to scout around, as it was our natural job. We both decided that, as a small town far from others, it'd be a relaxing, easy place for us to work. From there, we began working as partners, and both of us managed to find jobs as employees to Lavenshade Mansion. Of course, we both worked jobs that suited our needs for attracting others to us. Luxton was a bar attendant, and I was a performer. I used to sing and dance on the stage of the large ballroom. I suppose you've not been there yet...because us two are usually there, and this is the first we've seen of you all.""<br/>""I wasn't aware that this place had a ballroom...but, for such a large mansion, it certainly fits."" Minako starts searching the foyer with her eyes, trying to identify what could be a door leading to such a ballroom. Luxton catches this (as he's only been eyeing Minako the whole time Sylena has been talking), and chuckles.<br/>""Don't fret, my dear. We can show you all the ballroom once we're finished here. Perhaps we could even dance together."" Luxton grins lightly.<br/>""Anyways...yes, we've existed for centuries, but most of what we recall on the important side of things is when this mansion's owner was indeed still alive. This mansion was built by his younger self in the late 1800's, so we came years afterward. His eldest daughter was engaged, and his younger daughter was outgoing, but quite polite."" Sylena continues on.<br/>""So...the owner had two daughters, not one. Interesting. Go on."" Minako takes note of that fact. Earlier, they did receive info that the master of the mansion had a daughter, who they'd all guessed was Negloria...but with two daughters, there could be something more to it. She prepares to take more important mental notes while continuing to hear what the Succubus and Incubus have to say.<br/>""He was a very kind soul, always throwing lavish parties for nearby townspeople to attend, letting the little children who went on daring 'adventures' out to this mansion in the Shinkuro Woods have prizes and treats for their efforts, and so on. So...what I saw during a certain evening's performance startled me. You see, I was in the ballroom that night, entertaining the guests. I was doing a dance routine of mine, when suddenly, I start hearing shrieks and cries from further down the room. I take a closer look, and see two men in shady, concealing outfits walking away from the mansion's owner. The owner had <font color=""#fff200"">two girls</font> at his side, one his older daughter, the other being a <font color=""#fff200"">friend of his younger daughter</font>. The younger daughter was making a fuss, because one of the shady men was<font color=""#fff200""> carrying her away.</font> All her father and sister did was watch. The young friend, several years older than the young daughter at the time, did pursue the shady men. After seeing all that...well, I took my break, and then attempted to follow the men and the young friend, mostly out of curiosity. I couldn't find them, even when I did walk far past the fence of the mansion. I then went back and tried to locate Luxton. And when I found him...well, tell them what you were doing now, Luxton."" Sylena gestures to Luxton to indicate that it is his turn to speak.<br/>""Yes. I almost wish I could've been there to witness all that Sylena had, but at the time, I was already on my break from service in the ballroom's bar. I was strolling about the halls when I noticed a large group of men being led by one girl to a room upstairs. My curiosity was piqued, since I'd assumed that Sylena was the only other Succubus around the area. I decided to tag along with the group and watch. What I got was more gruesome than I'd anticipated. You see...that girl was Myriatte. She led those men in to sacrifice for her own gain. None of them survived. She'd have come after me too, if I hadn't turned into my own demon form in defense, and proven to her that I posed no threat, and could indeed defend myself from a threat as well."" Luxton explains. ""I escaped, and then ran into Sylena. We then retreated to a safer room to discuss what we both saw. That room upstairs still exists, the murder scene...but no one goes in there if they aren't a ghost. That's Myriatte's room here. Any creature with a body made of blood and flesh can expect not to step out of there unharmed.""<br/>Minako takes a moment to think over all she's been told, then looks back at Sylena. ""Sylena...do you think the little daughter who was taken away could have been Negloria?""<br/>""Well...that's what I wonder."" Sylena replies. ""The older daughter had brown hair up in a bun, hazel eyes, and was very polite. I believe that she's Yolani. There's no way she's not. However...the second daughter, the little one, was outgoing, polite, and also had brown hair, but in two adorable, smaller buns. And her eyes were bright hazel, almost amber. That doesn't fit the appearance of our little Negloria at all, does it? The only thing that matches there would be the age...the daughter looked about 5, and so does Negloria.""<br/>""I remember what the friend of that younger daughter looked like, though. She had long black hair, and purple eyes, sort of like Negloria. Though...the problem with that identity theory is that the friend was about...13-ish, possibly. Definitely not young enough or small enough to fit Negloria's appearance as we know her now."" Luxton offers.<br/>""Tch...great, another living group of kids on an investigation of this place, riddled with demons and ghouls of all kinds. Wow, people today are just so very smart, aren't they?"" Another voice, a girl's, joins in on the conversation, but upon looking around, no one else can see where it's coming from. Abernathy stays silent, offering no comment as to who the voice belongs to, but by the look on his reptilian face, it's clear that he does indeed recognize it...</font></div>"

Especially if two of those “people” happen to be newly created demi-fiends.” With that being said, the blue-haired boy smirks as he’s enveloped by that blue glow once again, it fading to reveal his demonic form. However, after his recent tadpole feast, he seems to be in better control than he was the first time around.

You people should treat me with more respect, since you're in <span class=""bb-i"">my</span> lair...""<br/>From a mass of pitch-black shadows off in a nearby entrance to the room, a figure steps out into the light to meet Minako and the others. She looks like an ordinary 13-year-old girl, wearing a regular-looking girl's school uniform. Her hair is long and black, and her eyes are dark enough to look nearly black as well. She would seem totally normal...if not for the sinister vibe she gives off, and the smirk on her face.<br/>""My name's Lavenshade."" The girl introduces herself. ""Penelope Lavenshade.""<br/>""The same name as the mansion..."" Minako murmurs, a bit confused.<br/>""Ah! Miss Penelope! Hiiiiiiii again!"" Amaiyo grins, waving to the girl excitedly.<br/>""So...you know Amaiyo, too."" Minako turns her eyes back onto the new girl. ""And also...you fit the description in the story. The original owner's younger daughter had a friend who looked just like you, apparently. Care to explain you connection?"" Minako was getting slightly irritated as well, but she wanted to hold off on her own transformation for a bit longer, to see if she could reason regularly. Something told her this wouldn't go the ideal way, though....<br/>""No, I don't care to explain anything to you people, because I'd prefer if you weren't here at all."" Penelope retorts, keeping a polite tone all the while as she crosses her arms in front of the group. ""I'll admit...I've been watching you, and I'm more impressed with you than the last group of stupid teenagers that wandered in here. Idiots, they were. However, they were all just straight-up living humans. You have outside ghosts, and now 'demi-fiends' on your side, it would seem. Hell, you even got Amaiyo here to be on your side. Not that such a thing is really hard...""<br/>""Penelope, listen, we're only trying to help all of the ghosts here get free. And to do that, it seems that we have to investigate further into this mansion's history. If you could just cooperate-"" Minako begins.<br/>""-Yeah, I know all that. I've heard it all before."" Penelope snarls back. ""But I'm one of the few not trapped. I'm also the 3rd when it comes to people who know the most about what's going on, and the history of this place. Why won't I tell you anything willingly, then? Because you don't understand how much harm you'd be doing to everyone if you did actually get to the bottom of this. This place was turned into the soul-sealing place it is now for a reason. If you found that reason, and freed everyone...then it'd be over. It'd be over, and <font color=""#f49ac2""><span class=""bb-i"">he</span></font> would come back. Then my friend, that daughter you speak of, would be <font color=""#fff200"">hurt all over again.</font> I promised to protect her. No matter what. Even if that means imprisoning so many...I'll keep this place in check. If I have to drive you out of here myself, then I will."" With those final words, Penelope's hair starts swaying a bit, though there's no breeze in the room to be found.<br/>""...Miss Penelope..."" Amaiyo frowns for once, and steps in between Minako and the secretive girl. ""I'm sorry. You're a really good friend, but...I promised I'd help my new friends here, and promises are important, right? So..."" She starts reaching for the knife in her front pocket, but Penelope only smiles, crouches down to the cat angel's level, and pats her head.<br/>""It's okay, Amaiyo. I understand. Don't worry, we won't fight."" Penelope grins.<br/>""....Not in front of you, anyway.""<br/>Suddenly, her hair possesses a life of it's own, and takes Amaiyo by surprise, wrapping itself around her neck under her neck ornament. There's a sickening snap, and Amaiyo goes limp. Penelope stands back up, and uses her hair to carelessly toss the body aside.<br/>""She'll be back in a little bit. I just didn't want her to have to distress over her friends fighting. Tch, if you can even claim to be her friends..."" Penelope explains herself before anyone can raise an objection. ""Now then...Sylena, Luxton, and Abernathy. None of you will interfere with this. Is that clear?""<br/>""....Yes, mistress."" Luxton and Sylena shuffle back a little from the scene.<br/>""Why must it always be this way....?"" Abernathy sighs, but reluctantly backs off as well.<br/>""...I was hoping to reason with you, but I suppose that won't be happening this time around. Maybe we'll just have to beat the information out of you, then."" Minako states as she herself is surrounded by a pinkish-red glow, and transformed into her own demon form.<br/>""Heh. Fine then.

""Ah, yes, the kitchen. It's actually quite large in this establishment. You'll find an entrance either in the ballroom, or in the back of the foyer we're in right now, second door to the left over there.""<br/>Suddenly, there is a loud yowl from the balcony atop the stairs. Abernathy looks up to see <font color=""#fff200"">Amelia perched on the railing</font>, her fur spiked up in a sense of alarm. Once the sound of a roaring engine from outside becomes rapidly closer, Abernathy braces himself for what he knows is about to happen. He squeezes his eyes shut instinctively when the vehicle slams through the mansion wall and into Penelope, but still hears the startled scream of Sylena, and the heavy sounds of demon Minako leaping out of the way.<br/>Even though Penelope is caught off guard by the savage attack, halfway through, the <font color=""#fff200"">pain becomes null and void</font>, and it just becomes tedious to her. Once Jake finally stops, Penelope melts her beaten body into a shadowy puddle, moving along the floor until she makes it to the bottom of the stairs. She re-materializes as dripping, half-formed black shadow version of herself, eyes glowing like malicious violet lights.<br/>""I suppose I truly WAS right to call you destructive bastards."" Penelope hisses in a slightly distorted voice. ""I'll leave you all be for now to play with your new psychotic friend, here. But I assure you....I'll be back to stop you before you get too much closer. I'll do whatever I can to protect my friend from <font color=""#f49ac2"">him</font>...."" With that threatening promise spoken out, Penelope outstretches wings, and flies almost faster than the eye can follow up into one of the hallways upstairs...<br/>""Thank goodness, the fight is off...."" Sylena sighs with relief.<br/>""Penelope can be quite scary when she's mad....but, then again, I suppose our new friend here can just as well."" Luxton smirks, gesturing to Jake. ""That was a simply marvelous entrance, my good man! Well done!""<br/>""Krazy-J, huh? Pleasure to meet you."" Makoto looks down at the newcomer. ""Apologies for how we look now. We don't usually look like this.""<br/>""He's right. We just used these forms in anticipation for battle."" Minako agrees. ""But, now that she's run off like a coward...I feel a sense of hunger beginning to return..."" She mutters, looking upstairs. She knows that somewhere up there, Myriatte is lurking about. Perhaps she and Makoto could get another meal from the cult leader, to avoid eating any of the more useful demons in the mansion...<br/>""Abernathy,"" Makoto begins, looking towards the now-broken wall of the mansion, ""Is that...fixable?""<br/>""Oh, worry not."" Abernathy answers. ""Whenever major damage like that happens, something always fixes it. A power of the house maybe. Anyway, it'll be patched within an hour or two.""<br/>""What if we destroyed the whole place? Could all the spirits be free?"" Minako questions.<br/>""No. There'd still be a field of energy preventing our escape, and the whole place would be back up in a day or less."" Abernathy shakes his head.<br/>Meanwhile, over by the wall, Amaiyo is waking up again. She stands up, yawns, and twists her head back into place with a happy little kitten smile. Suddenly, there's a loose, dainty metal noise, and she freezes in her tracks with a sick sort of dread present on her face. She sits on her knees on the floor with her back to everyone, and watches something shiny, colored in gold and silver, drop into her paws. It's broken into a few pieces from her neck being broken. While she's staring at the gold and silver necklace, something else slips underneath her weaved cord, which hid the necklace in the first place, and clatters to the floor. Amaiyo hurries to scoop this up too, seeing that it is a jewel, clear but colored in the shining spectrum of colors. Amaiyo looks at these pieces and begins trembling violently. ""N-no....nonono.....""<br/>Abernathy turns to see the trembling little angel cat, and slowly approaches her. ""Amaiyo? Are you alright....?""<br/>""I-I'm fine...."" Amaiyo stands up slowly, clearly lying to Abernathy and herself, since the tone of her voice is high and tinny, as if she's about to cry.<br/>""Amaiyo, what's wrong?"" Abernathy, usually scared of this dangerous little entity, starts feeling a little more sympathy for her when he hears how sad she sounds. Amaiyo turns around with the broken pendant, and Abernathy is hit even harder with sympathy when he sees the small cat's one good eye brimming with glittery tears. She says something, which is incoherent due to the high squeakiness of its tone, an runs off crying towards the front steps outside of the mansion.<br/>""...For someone so scary, she's certainly got a movingly innocent side...poor thing."" Sylena frowns.<br/>""I'll....be right back. I apologize for not greeting you more formally, new guest, but I'm sure you understand."" Abernathy bows to Jake, nods to everyone else, and pursues Amaiyo. Luckily, she didn't go too far, sitting forlorn on the bottom step outside.</font><br/><font color=""#7ea7d8"">""...What is it that got broken there?"" Abernathy cautiously sits next to her, eyeing the pendant.<br/>""S....s-something from my first ever friend..."" Amaiyo sniffles. ""S-she...s-s-she....""<br/>""Who is she?"" Abernathy asks with a gentle patience in his voice, treating Amaiyo as if she were a distraught child- which, she might as well be.<br/>""S-she...was an angel who...kept me safe and taught me not to kill people I didn't have to...."" Amaiyo whimpers. ""But...I'm a dangerous...d-dangerous abomination...she was supposed to get rid of me, and got in trouble for it....t-this necklace is all I have left...""<br/>""I see."" Abernathy nods slowly, trying to think of a solution. He brightens up a bit once he thinks he's found one. ""Amaiyo, I think I know who can fix this for you. Your friend was an angel?""<br/>""Y-yeah...."" Amaiyo looks up at Abernathy with her big blue eye, wiping it dry.<br/>""Well, why don't we go talk to our resident angel Ellysa, then? She's got to have something."" Abernathy smiles a bit.<br/>""You really think so?"" Amaiyo's ears perk up.<br/>""Well, we can at least ask. Come on, lets go find her!"" Abernathy stands up. Amaiyo hops up onto her feet next to him, looking much happier, as per usual. ""Yaaaaay! Thank you, Mr. Dinosaur-guy!""</font></div>"

A whisper here, a growl there, floors creaking in much too neat of a sequence right behind your path to just be the house settling. Eyes in the dark seem to watch, some hostile, some not. The air is cold, no matter how warm it could be outside. The top floor of the house has but one room, where a figure is always seen...but no one has ever reached that floor, and come back to tell the tale.</font>
<font color=""#8493ca"">All of these things and more can be found, even experienced, in the abandoned Lavenshade Mansion in the middle of Shinkuro Woods. The people of the town nearby, called Negloria Town, sent out this report and warning of the mansion, and the possible curses it contained, before they all vanished. It is said that perhaps they fled the town to escape from the reach of whatever lurks within the mansion...but there's only one way to find the real answer out now.</font>
<font color=""#7ea7d8"">The primary focus of all those who go into the mansion, provided they aren't ghosts, demons, or angels themselves, is to piece together everything that happened, find the truth, and help release the souls in that mansion from whatever keeps them there so strongly. Each individual soul you meet has something, a story, a clue, a small tidbit that could help you put the puzzle together, and find out why this extravagant mansion fell to ruin, why it has become a purgatory-like prison for souls, and why everyone in Negloria Town suddenly vanished.
Every single being you'll meet within this mansion is a ghost, demon, or an angel (though, about 87% of the residents are ghosts). Some are quite friendly, and would be glad to tell you what they know and how they got to be like they are today. Others, however, require something first, maybe a favor, something connecting them to their lives, before they can tell you anything. Still others will try to kill you, or at the very least drive you out, because of their own anger.
One being in particular in that mansion you will meet, a little girl, seems to be the only living person there...but is there something up with her as well?

If you dare to enter the Mansion, you may find out ;3</font>

I have free time. May do Chef Hatchet too.

Name: Chris McLean (Pronounced McLane)

Age: Presumably late 20s-early 30s

Appearance: <img src=""http://images5.fanpop.com/image/photos/27000000/Chris-McLean-total-drama-27029632-1024-768.jpg""/>

Motivation: Chris's sole motivations on the show are to torment the kids as much as possible while keeping it legal, and to get his paycheck. This is to be expected, if anyone knows the guy well enough, they'd all agree.

Backstory: Chris has been featured in many movies and shows- namely reality shows. He's won several awards for Best Reality Show Host at the Jemmy Awards, and continues to be incredibly popular in pop culture- something that probably continues to inflate his already massive ego. He has also been in a boyband once before, but he's done an excellent job of keeping that under wraps. Only the creepiest of stalker fans probably know about it today, since the band was a massive failure.

Personality: Chris is a full-blown narcissist. He'd probably be the next best replacement for Narcissus himself in the old myth. He generally creates challenges and other things with the themes being about him. In the second season of the show, the marshamallows at the bonfire were replaced by Gilded Chris Rewards at a ceremony of the same namesake. He also enjoys torturing the kids as much as he can, always staying on the fence between breaking the law and not. He tends to underspend on challenges, which further adds to the danger for the campers, but increases his own paycheck.

Chris gets incredibly upset when he is interrupted- most of the time. He tends to use interruptions to lead into his next topic of discussion in most instances- a valuable skill for reality show hosts. He may also surprise you later on with a few quirks in his personality.

Misc: Chris is afraid of his show being cancelled, ergo not getting any more paychecks from it. He is also afraid of lawsuits, in situations where lawsuits are actually threatening. This is not common though, as the lengthy novel-thick contract he made all the campers sign covers almost every front.</div>"
18181,Total Drama: The Island Strikes Back,CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76213-total-drama-the-island-strikes-back,['Casual'],2015-02-04 21:10:00,Lord Pie,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Name:
Renée Windsor

Age:
16

Gender:
Female

Appearance:
Renée looks somewhat older than she actually is, a life dedicated to maintaining and preening her appearance helping her to seem mature and much more responsible than she actually is. Her hair is golden and silky to the touch, always carefully brushed and made into one style or another. Her eyes are a sparkling emerald colour, always enhanced almost perfectly by smoky eye makeup. She wears pristine clothing, usually not practical and always slightly too revealing (not that she’d agree!). All in all she is a very attractive girl and knows it, maintaining and enhancing her natural beauty as much as she can. 

Motivation: What motivation other than $100,000 would you need? I suppose fame would be a close second for Renée, her desire to live a life in the lap of luxury high on her wish list. Since she has not yet found a man wealthy enough to maintain her desired lifestyle she has entered the contest with the hopes of being able to win the prize money and make her own way in the world. 

Backstory: 
Renée grew up in a small seaside town in the United Kingdom, finishing school at 15 before traveling with a few of her friends to numerous locations around the world, all paid for by her parents. It was all going perfectly until they suddenly decided their daughter wasn’t achieving anything by her own merit, before promptly ‘cutting her off’ – financially speaking. Fortunately she had always suspected this day would come, having slowly siphoned off enough money into an account of her own which she now lives off. But with the balance rapidly plummeting time is running out for her to find another way to survive. 

Personality: 
To the casual observer Renée is sweet and innocent, a perfectly polite and kind young woman, but that isn’t quite the whole story. She is actually manipulative and self-centred, caring little for anyone or anything that doesn’t fall within her interests, though still young it doesn’t look so good for Renée in terms of becoming a whole and balanced individual before it’s too late. 

Misc: 
Renée is scared of quite a few things, poverty, hard work, failure – basically anything that is contrary to the lifestyle she believes she deserves. She is determined to win the competition by any means, legitimately or not – despite knowing that she may have to do quite a few things outside of her comfort zone to even come remotely close. 

------------------------------

Name:
Toqir Fogg

Age:
18

Gender: 
Male

Appearance:
Toqir has a somewhat unkempt appearance, his hair constantly messy and his clothing generally scruffy. He has a friendly face and a grin or smirk is never far from his features which compliments his strong jawline. He has blue eyes, brown hair and is somewhat tall and lanky, though not excessively so, his skin tone is somewhat naturally tanned giving him all in all a rather positive appearance considering the lack of effort he puts into his looks. 

Motivation:
He original applied to be a contestant for a joke, not realising that there would actually be a chance that’d he’d be accepted. Now he just figures that he may as well try his hardest to win, the prize money of course being quite a tempting amount that would make a difference in anyone’s life. Aside from the money he also thinks that it could be quite the experience, so either way win or lose he is determined to have a good time.  

Backstory:
Toqir is the ‘IT director’ to a small independent company, which in reality is just him and his friends attempt to make their way in the world by selling and buying advertising space to companies and individuals. He actually isn’t an expert with IT systems, but he is a little bit of a wiz and enthusiast, and anything else he needs to know he can just learn on the job (he is a product of the google generation – generally googling any question he has). 

Personality:
Generally he is quite relaxed and laid back, always staying within his comfort zone when possible. He isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed but has quite a sense of humour and a decent work eithic – if something needs to be done then it’ll get done eventually. That being said he is a little bit of a minimalist and truly he is a little lazy, through with the right incentives he can be motivated appropriately. He has a habit of giving up when things get difficult, and avoiding serious issues with humour. 

Misc:
Toqir is generally willing to try anything at least once, though he doesn’t appreciate being taken outside of his comfort zone – something he is sure will happy many times on the show. He has a fear of heights and a deep water, having managed to avoid these two things almost completely for most of his life.

He also smokes plants.

Name:
Delilah Green

 Age: 
18 

Gender: 
Female

 Appearance: 
Delilah is fairly short, though not excessively so she is generally one of the shorter people in any room. Her left eye is a light blue with her right being brown, having what’s known as complete heterochromia. Her naturally straight hair is a gently amber colour, usually tied back into a ponytail for practicality. She has often been told she has a very ‘cute’ face with an almost innocent look always spread across her features. 

Motivation: 
Delilah wants to come out of her shell a little more, as well as possibly learning to be a bit more assertive and impulsive. The prize money would be great too, but she doesn’t really think she’ll actually win – not that it will stop her from trying as hard as she can. She also hopes to make some friends whilst she is there. 

Backstory: 
What is there to say, she grew up in a small rural community as a part of a small family. Both her parents are quiet and gentle people and she has picked up many of their traits. Finishing school she stayed at home to help around the farm being an animal lover through and through, though her parents loved this they often spoke to her about spreading her wings and doing something big that she really cares about. It was hard to tell them that she was perfectly happy where she was, but over time has come to understand what they mean and is now starting to try new things and expand her circle. 

Personality: 
Soft, gentle and a generally calm and very caring person Delilah is a little withdrawn and definitely shy at times. Generally happy and very calm as well as a bit of a pushover she will go with whatever the majority of people want most of the time. That being said she is trying to change and become more independent and  bold, but it has yet to be seen if she will be able to go through with her plans. 

Misc: 
Lover of animals, music and gardening amongst other things. Generally anything tied to farm living she is more than happy to do.

She has quite a few fears that have yet to be discovered seeing as she has lived a very sheltered life, though already quite a few things get to her. Things like uncomfortable situations or horrible people mostly, but surely Chris McLean will help her find out just what else she is really scared of.

Age: ?

Gender: Male

Appearance: <img src=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120206163840/thepkmnfanfiction/images/d/d8/Chef-hatchet-and-total-drama-world-tour-gallery.png""/>

Motivation: He has none. He enjoys seeing the campers get tortured to a degree less than that of Chris, and he enjoys having a paying job. Other than that, he has no motivation. 

Backstory: No one knows what his life story is. The only things that anyone can gather are that he went to culinary school (maybe) and that he was once in the military.

Personality: Chef is as mean as a drill sergeant. Odds are, he was one. He tends to scare campers with his incredibly infuriated facial expressions. He also couldn't care less about the quality of the food he makes. As such, unless it is a special occasion, campers' meals are barely edible, if they can be considered edible at all. He'll also help Chris run challenges from time to time.

Misc.: Chef has no fears. Not ones to speak of anyways. He's hardcore and stone cold. He can be made uncomfortable, though, but even that is hard to do.</div>"
18183,Total Drama: The Island Strikes Back,CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76213-total-drama-the-island-strikes-back,['Casual'],2015-02-05 02:27:00,Ploxerdon,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Name: Dan Bourne
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Appearance: <img src=""http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4113/4993548408_ef2790c074.jpg""/>
Motivation: Free 100.000 Dollars? Dan is in. He doesn't care about any risks or whatever, he just is here to make a quick buck. And hey, its always better than his life on the streets, right?
Backstory: Dan Bourne has always been a troublesome kid, and once he turned 18, his parents kicked him out of his house. The first thing he did after that was go to the liquid store, and waste all his money there. Dan Bourne is living on the streets nowadays, and doesn't care about anybody or anything, including his own health. When he was offered to join this program, he couldn't refuse. Worst case scenario, he is stuck on an island with some idiots and free food. Thats better than what he is used to. Best case scenario? 100k dollars in the bank, that will probably get him some quality weed to smoke.
Personality: Dan doesn't care about anybody or anyone, making him lazy as it gets. If he had the choice to walk a mile, or not eat for a day, he wouldn't eat. Worn clothes, bad attitude, he got it all. If he were to die, he wouldn't even care.
Misc: Him not caring about anything has it ups and downs.
He doesn't really fear anything, but he is too lazy to do anything. He has nothing to lose either, so he won't take any risks either.



Name: Johny Johnson
Age:17
Gender: Male
Appearance: <img src=""http://www.mortalkombatwarehouse.com/mk/johnnycage/versus_full.png""/>
Motivation: Johny Johnson really likes fame, so he wants to stay in the competition as long as possible. He couldn't care more or less about the money, he wipes his ass with 100k dollars.
Backstory: Johny came from a rich family, and never had to work for anything, making him lack skills in basically every aspect that there is. His parents live in a mansion, and he is used to being spoiled all the time. When he heard about this program, he immediately signed up, as it was a nice way to obtain some fame.
Personality: Johny's ego is huge, as he thinks he is number 1, and that he outclasses each and everybody on the island. Besides being cocky, he is spoiled, and would rather not make his hands dirty.
Misc: The fact that he misspelled his own name on his chest when getting it tattooed proofs that he is an idiot. His only redeeming quality is that he is quite good at acting, which might help him out. He refuses to get his hands dirty.</div>"

Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/mlVz7xD.jpg""/>
Motivation: Ned never was able to prove himself to anyone outside of his vast knowledge of many various subjects. He's out to beat everyone on the island by outwitting the competition, and demonstrating his superior mind on international television.

Backstory: Ned has always been a shut in. Never once left his house when he didn't absolutely have to, he always preferred to stay inside and absorb all the information he could- off the internet and from books. He was also always picked on for being rather scrawny and unkempt, but it never even bothered his ego once.

Personality: Ned is your stereotypical nerd. He knows all sorts of odd and random things that most people would deem useless information. But he's proud to demonstrate such knowledge when opportunity knocks. This most likely comes from his antisocial background, and as such he never learned when to keep his mouth shut. He's a pretty nice guy for a know it all, though, and is well aware of what is at stake.

He's not the strongest physical competitor, but when you can get past his vast overconfidence and start listening to him instead of ignoring him (which people tend to do), he can be a great brain to have in many challenges.

Misc: He's got a hoarse voice. He also has many awkward quirks, one of which is his fear of crunchy peanut butter. Highly irrational, yes, but to him, its crunchiness is just terrifyingly unnatural. He's also very clumsy, but claims to have a ""sexy bod"" and ""wicked talents"".</div>"

Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/kV0fKQN.jpg""/>

Motivation: Her parents wanted to get her out of the house so that she could be independent of them as soon as possible. They found a camp for her to go to and made her sign the suspiciously long contract. They all thought it was a genuine summer camp, and Vi still thinks that. She's in for a rude awakening, however. But while she's here, may as well try to become a hundred-thousand-aire, right?

Backstory: Vi faced depression through most of her life. Her heterochromia always made her the butt of many jokes, and she's gone through most of her life without any friends. Another one of her goals, while she is here, is to hopefully make some friends and get to know some people. 

Personality: Vi is a genuinely sweet and caring girl. Sometimes, she may need some reminding that they are in a competition, because it is her nature to help anyone and everyone. If she happens to make any friends, though, then you'd better not mess with them. It's always the quiet ones... And Vi is REALLY shy.

Misc: Vi has a fear of burning to death, drowning, or being buried alive. She used to have nightmares involving those three things frequently, but they're much less common now... Doesn't mean she's any less afraid, though.</div>"

Gender: Male
Age: 17

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/kZsLQ0H.jpg""/>

Motivation: 
Oliver sees reality TV as a gateway to his one true dream: becoming an A-list acting powerhouse. He figures that with the $100,000 grand prize, he can afford to move to Hollywood and hire an agent – and with the fame that comes with winning, landing roles would be a piece of cake. At the same time, he sees this particular reality show as an opportunity to show off how masculine he can be, something that has as of late become very important to him.

Backstory: 
Oliver grew up in a small, rural town. Since he was a child, he only had one dream: to one day go to Hollywood and see himself on the big screen. As a young teen, he found himself to be quite popular with the girls in his class, and while he wasn't quite as interested in them as they were in him, he figured he might as well take advantage of the attention and began dating serially. At 16 though, Oliver made a world-shattering realization: he was actually gay. Afraid of this revelation, he kept it to himself and actually stepped up his dating game with the ladies, suddenly terrified that others had somehow discovered it in him as well.

Personality: 
To those who don't know him, Oliver appears to be a regular bro: handsomely aggressive, aggressively handsome, and a merciless flirt to any pretty girl who will put up with it. Behind his façade though, lies a soft-spoken, confused young man whose real passion is method acting. He tends to avert his eyes when talking to guys he finds particularly attractive.

Misc:
Oliver is an avid reader of poetry. He would kill for a nice... significant other with whom he can stay up until sunrise talking about favourite poems and poets. He particularly enjoys Emily Dickinson. He also recently broke up with his latest girlfriend, just hours after being picked for this show.

His biggest fear is having his sexuality revealed to the world, especially on national television... oh, and spiders. Oliver is terrified of spiders.

Parade
Gender: Female
Age: 18

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/ZscZpB4.jpg""/>

Motivation:
… You know, she's not sure. Parade doesn't really know which direction life is taking her – and that is just the way she likes it. 

Backstory:
Parade spent most of her childhood in a small commune. Although she was happy there, at 16 she left the commune, guided by a vision that told her to go out into the world and find her true purpose. She hitchhiked across the country for nearly a year, living off the kindness of strangers, before finally being arrested for starting a campfire in a city park. While in lockup she befriended a fellow drifter, and after they were both released they toured the country together in his rickety caravan. Eventually she was recruited for this show, and while she doesn't entirely understand what that means, she sure is excited to be a part of it.

Personality:
Parade is very laid back and care free. She doesn't quite understand the outside world yet, but she is curious and eager to learn. She especially has gotten herself in trouble when it comes to monogamy – she finds the idea not only pointless, but completely alien, having grown up in a community where free love reigned. She works well with others, but can be incredibly naïve, not always recognising when she is being taken for a fool.

Misc:
Parade is literate, but just barely. Her drifter friend has been kind enough to teach her during their travels. She likes to smoke trees, shoot the breeze and even occasionally spend some quality time with Lucy. She plays mandolin. Making love is one of her favourite things to do.

She fears true love - a concept entirely new, introduced to her through pillow talks with her drifter friend - and, to a certain extent, monogamy in general. Or maybe she just fears the incompatibility of her own values and morals with the outside world. She occasionally has nightmares of her future self, a woman entirely different, completely adapted - married, settled down, having completely forgotten the names and faces of those who raised her.

Autumn Bailey
Gender: Female
Age: 18

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/z1hNZsm.jpg""/>

Motivation:
Fame and fortune, of course! Well, that and the fact that $100,000 will really help get her music career off the ground. Nothing quite like the publicity that comes with winning a reality show to get Autumn Bailey on the map!

Backstory:
Autumn grew up in the suburbs of a major city. She got involved with the underground music scene from a young age, going to shows with her much older brother, and after watching an underground band she was familiar with get signed to a major label, she decided that she was going to one day do the same. She formed a band with two close friends, booked a few shows, and learned to sing and play guitar, in that order. After a year and a half of “touring” (which in reality was just playing the same handful of underground venues for $25 a show, over and over) the band split, and Autumn decided to pursue a solo career, which has seen similar success... or lack thereof.

Personality:
Autumn is perky, happy, and confident. She puts her mind to something, and then she does it. And then she keeps doing it until she succeeds. She's a social butterfly and loves to meet new people, but doesn't always work well in groups – that same drive to succeed sometimes gets in the way of her ability to think beyond what she personally has set out to do.

Misc:
Autumn's confidence, as well as a deep-seated fear of failure and rejection, tends to blind her to her own shortcomings. She's convinced that her lack of success as a musician is a result of not having the proper exposure – not playing the right venues at the right time, not inviting the right people to see her shows. It has never once occurred to her that perhaps her lack of success has something to do with her lack of real musical talent.</div>"

Age: 17 

 Gender: Female  

Appearance: <img src=""http://data3.whicdn.com/images/111456359/original.png""/>

Motivation: The money, of course! She's winning this thing and she won't let anyone stop her. She doesn't care about fame and all, she just wants to live a stable life where you don't have to steal and fight to survive in the streets.  

Backstory: Veronica grew up in the poorest part of town, and where she and her family live in the squatters' area. Of course, in the end they were got rid of from their homes and that's when Veronica decided to leave her parents and face the world alone. She was ten years old then, so she doesn't really know what she was talking about but she kept her word. She grew up on the streets and learned how to look out for herself.  

Personality: Veronica is a VERY determined person. When she puts her mind onto something, she will do everything to get it. However, she's also tad playful at times, often sending out double entendres and innuendos, but that's only because watching people's reaction are very amusing. She's confident on her abilities and and won't hesitate to play dirty to achieve her goal.  

Misc: Veronica fears that she'll someday die in the streets without even having progress in her life. She's also scared of spiders for some reason, and has always avoided them since she was little.


Name: Adrian Ross

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: <img src=""http://otakuswonderland.weebly.com/uploads/1/9/1/0/19105971/8807764_orig.jpg""/>

Motivation: Well, the prize is actually a second motivation, he was in because of the publicity mostly, but his main goal for joining the show is to witness the drama that is about to happen in the island, and he will enjoy every second watching it, being the casual observer and the son of a paparazzi slash celebrity blogger and gossiper.

Backstory: Adrian grew up in the orphanage until he was five, wherein he was adopted by Ashton Ross, a flamboyant and openly gay paparazzi who is famous for blogging celebrity gossips and secrets. Of course, Adrian soon began to inherit his adopted father's traits, like the flashy clothing and annoying nosiness. They were well-off, and Adrian doesn't have any problems with his father.

Personality: Adrian is aspiring to be like his adopted father and tries to follow his footsteps. He has no sense of privacy and doesn't know the meaning of no, and will stick his nose into your business if he's interested whether you like it or not. He's blunt and rude at times, but he has a soft side somewhere...probably. He's flamboyant and flashy, like his father, and dyed his hair pink because he thinks it's fabulous. He acts and talks quite femininely, but he's straight, that he's sure of.

Misc: Despite wanting to be like his father, he's also scared that people will compare him to his father, ruining originality. He's also claustrophobic.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Eilif Markham
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Motivation:</span> Having signed up to spite her family, Eil is gonna see this through to the end, the money is a good second, but really she had never believed she could be picked anyway. The adrenalin rush she may or may not get is another reason.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> For the most part Eil was a normal girl, the differences being that she was pulled out of school and home schooled from the age of ten. Instead of proper schooling it was just letting her run wild, learning what she wanted to learn. This mostly included running lose and causing havoc, tagging random signs also turned into a hobby. Now that she’s sixteen her parents want to send her off to a pretty, prim, girlish, all-girls boarding school. The sort of place Eil would never go. So she signed up for the show as a way out. She had been told she had to buckle down and do something, so she did <span class=""bb-i"">something</span>, just not what her parents were hoping.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Eil is a wild girl who always preferred being outdoors. Except when she had a good book and then she wanted to be where no one can find her. Wild and carefree, Eil has a slight anger management problem, but for the most part she is really to kind for her own good. Her mood swings are sudden and shocking, and very obvious as well. She is not an idiot; she just can’t be bothered to learn normal things. Also a bit of a daredevil adrenalin junkie, she will take unnecessary risks just for the sake of it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Misc:</span> She is claustrophobic and any feeling of being trapped makes her go berserk, lashing out at anything nearby, especially if it will get her out. She is also scared of most spiders and doesn’t like touching some bugs, though she is fine with most. Ants disgust her with the way they swarm, and the smell of oranges or similar fruits makes her want to puke. She both loves and is a little afraid of the dark, but if there is even a tiny bit of light she is fine, blindfolds however don’t affect her the same way. To counter her fear of dark she wears a glow in the dark pendant for cloudy nights, or being inside. Her only really calm state is when she sing to the stars, however she doesn’t really like others hearing her sing to often.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sam Woodward
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Motivation:</span> None. Nope. Nil. Nada. Nicht. Zip. Zill. (You get the picture) Not even for the money. Sure it’d be great if he did win, that money would keep him happy for a long time, but really? Moneys not all that great. At least, not in Sam’s opinion.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Sam, having little motivation in his life for anything, grew up being dragged off to things by his dad, in an attempt to interest him in something. Other than books. He has been dragged to sport games, to music concerts, workshops, rallies, and recitals. The latest, and most drastic thing his dad has done is sign him up for this reality show thing. Sam has only a vague idea of what he’s getting into, and is in for a pretty nasty surprise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Sam is a fairly simple person, he doesn’t want much from life Quite unmotivated most of the time, he will stick to things through and through, <span class=""bb-i"">if</span> they perk his interest. Books are one thing Sam likes, that and a bit of good music. Good food is also another thing. Quiet for the most part, Sam can be quite smart but nearly never shows it. He actually quite enjoys many of the things he gets dragged to, (except for the often-present loud noises,) but that doesn’t motivate him to participate in anything else. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Misc:</span> Loud, excessive, or constant noises, being left behind, huge crowds, large amounts of water; these are things Sam fears. Bad food is even worse. However if Sam can find a reason to be bothered with anything he will stick it out; through thick, thin, and dog poop (if he has to).</div>"

Motivation: To get enough money to write, and publish her book, while funding herself for college. For her mother. 

Backstory: Heloise was raised by her mother. Her father left before Heloise could even form any memories of him, and her mother worked hard to give her a good life. Heloise was always interested in stories, and writing them, and her mother encouraged that, giving her everything she needed, even if it was mostly second hand. When her mother got sick, Heloise took over a lot of responsibility, juggling school work, and a part time job, as well as caring for her mother. Her mother died just before her graduation, and Heloise struggled for a few months, but vowed to do her best, to honor her mothers memory. 

Personality: Heloise is a kind and caring young woman. She is quite, prefering to keep to herself then to being in a group. She likes solitude, and uses the time she is with other people to observe them. She is a strong, determined young woman, and dedicated to her dream of becoming a writer. 

Misc: She is afraid of spiders, snakes and failing. Her lack of confidence sometimes makes her second guess herself, and as a result, she is constatnly worrying about what she writes, and if she will be good enough.</div>"

He straightened his shirt and fixed a strand of his hair one last time before the cameras started rolling. ""Aaaaaand this season is a go! You're on, Chris."" Said one of the cameramen, giving an obvious clue that Chris is okay to introduce the season and start the first episode.

""Last season on Total Drama!"" He said, then paused for a brief moment before continuing. ""Fourteen campers duked it out on our brand new island, Pahkitew. In the season filled with some of the weirdest contestants yet, many weirdos fell short of the million. Beardo, the unpopular beatboxer. Leonard, the LARPer extraordinaire. Max, the living incarnation of cliché evil genius from movies. And Jasmine, Australian survivalist. But in the end, zombie conspiracy theorist Shaun walked away with the million dollars.""

Chris looked directly into the camera now. ""This season, we return to where it all started. Again. Many thought Wawanakwa was blown up in season 5... And they're right. We rebuilt-slash-restored a slightly unstable rebirth of the island, and now contestants are in for a huge awakening. We're starting off this season with one wave of campers, then bringing in another wave shortly after. The frst wav of contestatnts is arriving right now.

For viewers at home, the camera switched over to a boat that just stopped ar the dock. ""First up, Ned DeRosario!"" Chris exclaimed, as a scraggly blonde-headed teen stepped off the boat.

Ned stepped off the boat and spoke after standing next to Chris. ""Y'all get ready to see my crazy wicked talents!""

""Can't wait Ned. Next up, Violet Miklos! And boy, look at her hair!"" Chris chuckled as a girl with blue hair stepped out of the boat, blushing with embarassment. ""It's not too bad, is it?!"" She said nervously. As Chris continued to laugh, Vi walked over and stood quietly next to Ned.

""Up next, Sam Woodward and Eilif Markham!"" Chris announced dramatically, then waited for the two to come out. He chuckled in anticipation of today's challenges.</div>"

Why was he near the front?! At least if he had been near the back he’d have an idea of what he was doing. Strolling over to the man he looked round lazily, grimacing as he saw what was going to be his ‘new home’. 

Vaulting over the side of the boat Eilif completely ignored the short gangway and instead just jumped straight to the dock. The boy ahead of her was taking his time wandering up the dock, drinking in the scenery. That was frustrating, Eil hated being slow, but right now she was going to try and hold emotions in, at least for the first day. The boy ahead, stopped next to the girl with blue hair and Eil stopped right next to him, brushing her own red hair out of her crystal blue eyes. She grinned wildly, she was out, and this was going to be fun.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Ned, Violet, Sam and Eilif.</span> she memorized the names, putting them to the faces they belonged to. When she was called, she walked off the gangway, hands in pockets, and shook her head, moving her hair out of her face.

He glanced around at the other contestants, memorizing their faces, and positioned himself next to Heloise, sending a not-so-subtle wink her way as he did so.

“THE WINNER HAS ARRIVED!!” Autumn announced, striking a pose. She sashayed off the boat, smiling brightly, and high-fiving all of the other contestants as she passed. “Hello, hello, hello, and good luck to you all – not that it'll do you any good!”

Behind Autumn, Parade poked her head out of the boat and looked around. Her expression was a little inquisitive, and a lot excited – she didn't fully understand what was happening, but everyone seemed happy to be here, and she sure was, too. She ambled off the boat, taking everything in as she walked: the beach, the water, the other folks lined up before her. Was that... was that bird wearing a plastic necklace? Everything was so exotic and strange, and Parade couldn't wait to get out there and explore this crazy new place. She looked again to the lineup of faces, and picked out the one that seemed the most friendly – Ned, was it? She flashed a friendly smile and then turned her attention back to the boat, because that seemed to be the place where everyone was looking.</div>"

She blew a flying kiss towards the camera and gave a playful wink. She struts down the docks confidently, and possibly sending flirty waves to the male contestants. ""I'm winning this thing, got that?"" She stated, not exactly in a snobby and overconfident way, just keeping her eye in the prize.

Adrian smiled as he waves to the camera cheerfully, stepping off the boat and eyeing some of the contestants. There were so many different kinds of people there, and he can't wait to witness the things that will go down this season, and he will be able to see it live. He ran a hand through his flamboyant pink-dyed hair, grinning. ""Can't wait any longer here,"" he jokingly said.</div>"

Please give a very warm welcome to Overconfident Autumn, bashful Parade, Vexatious Veronica attempts to woo the audience, and Eager Adrian! Don't worry, Adrian. I can't wait either."" He said with his signature laugh. ""Oh, and Oliver."" He said, inteoducing him last, despite the fact that he exited the boat before most of the others.

Ned smiled and spoke confidently to Parade. ""Hello there. I can tell you're already impressed by my skills as a-""

""Quiet, Ned!"" Chris interjected. ""I'm still introducing people here!"" He shouted, then cleared his throat.</div>"

Already he was nervous and whilst he was waiting he had wanted nothing more to browse the web on his phone as he usually did whenever he wanted to distract himself. As quickly as he could he made his way towards the others, hesitating briefly as he wondered what he could say that would be clever or memorable like they had. “Eh... hey!” he half mumbled “this year’s season is mine!” 

Satisfied he blushed slightly before he made his way and stood beside the others, gazing at them as he realised that they all looked more determined than he did at this stage – also noticing that this year there were quite the number of pretty girls amongst the contestants. He averted his eyes as the next contestant was called, his heart still pounding from the excitement of it all.

As Renée Windsor’s name was called she smirked and quickly made sure her hair was still perfect before she hopped off the boat concentrating on looking her best, as she walked slowly towards the others looking at each of them. As her gaze settled on their host Chris she winked and blew him a seductive kiss before she said to the camera “I’m just here to do my best!” she said with a giggle before she made her way to the front of the group, everything she did had been carefully considered beforehand. Looking back briefly she tried to smile at the others, first impressions and all. In reality she was sizing up the competition as she did so, disguising it as nothing more than happy curiosity as she examined everything within eyesight with her best innocent face the entire time. 

Lastly there was Delilah Green who hopped off the boat with a genuine look of amazement and excitement as she rushed over to Chris. She hesitated without knowing what to say and so just gave her best smile and waved awkwardly before she went to stand towards the back of the now quite sizable group. She felt a little overwhelmed but definitely excited. This was all so strange and she really didn’t know what to expect as out of habit she fiddle and twirled with the ends of her hair as she listened to Chris.</div>"

""Toqir, Reneé, and... Uh, Delilah. Those three conclude our first wave of victims- er, I mean contestants! We'll have another several arriving soon. For now, a couple of heads up. You'd better do your best if you want to stick around for a while, whether you want to win the million or not.

The camera for viewers at home instantly changed to view Chris in the Confessional stall. ""That's right, and the Confessional is back!""

""You can use the Confessional at any given point to have a one-sided conversation with the audience, and you can reveal your plans, vent, and so on. You can say anything! Oh, and everyone has to use it."" Chris chuckled as he went on to explain the challenge. ""Now, for your first challenge, you have to make it to the cabin grounds. Good luck!"" Chris shouted. He shouted because Chef Hatchet had arrived in a helicopter, and he picked Chris up.

""Wait! Don't we get a... A map, or compass, or directions or something?!"" Vi yelled over the helicopter.

""What?! I can't hear anything you're saying!"" McLean responded, then laughed as the helicopter took off. 

""Don't we- ugh..."" She sighed.

Ned watched the helicopter fly off over the trees, then decided to help out any of his fellow campers who decided to listen. ""Hey guys, just head this way. That's the direction the helicopter went, so that's got to be where the cabins are."" Whether or not anyone decided to listen, he marched off into the woods.

Would it be more amusing to play along, or put him down straight away? If I play along, I give the image of a love sick girl, who will then kick their butts in everything. If I dont, I maintain my self esteem.</span>

It wasn't a hard choice, at least not for her. She simply said, in a monotone voice <span class=""bb-b"">""you should have got that tic checked out before coming on here. I imagine it must be terribly annoying to have that twitch in your eye""</span> she gave a smile that could be considered sweet, and looked over when Ned talked.

Didn't he consider the fact that the helicopter could be going that way to throw them off? She looked about, studying everything and watching the other contestants. If no one was going to speak up against this, should she? She debated that, and Ren said, her voice soft now, almost thoughtful <span class=""bb-b"">""how do we know yet aren't trying to trick us, doing that with the helicopter?""</span>

But Ned had already headed off. She sighed heavily, deciding to label him a fool, for now. To her, the most important thing to find was water. They could dehydrate pretty quickly, and then where would that leave them? So looked at the contests still there and said, again in that same thoughtful tone <span class=""bb-b"">""I think we need to find water, first. Drinkable water. And then we can follow it down stream. Camps, towns, cabins and such tend to be down the current, that way there's a supply of fresh water constsntly""</span> while she knew this was a competition, she didn't want anyone to die. And right now it seemed like safety in numbers was important.</div>"

Drinkable water. And then we can follow it down stream. Camps, towns, cabins and such tend to be down the current, that way there's a supply of fresh water constantly.""

Vi thought about her words for a minute. Her parents had mentioned that they were on an island campground that had no civilization whatsoever, aside from the camp itself. ""Umm... But the contract said that this camp is supposed to be on an island that has no civilization aside from the campground."" Vi responded. ""Chris seems like the kind of guy to try to throw us off, so I think that heading off into the woods and hoping for the best is our best shot."" She said, following with a smile.

Thought I outgrew that.” He smirked as he walked passed her to join the group.

---

“Hey, what can I say?” Oliver shrugged at the Confession Cam. “She's smooth. I'm smoother.”

---

He watched as Ned walked off into the woods, and crossed his arms. “Well, that's <span class=""bb-i"">one</span> way to split the party. Are we just gonna let him wander off by himself?” He glanced to the rest of the group. No one else seemed to have any more of an idea than he did, and oh look, someone else was wandering off by herself. Well, whatever. He followed Vi, but didn't say anything to her just yet.

Autumn shaded her eyes, watching the helicopter speed away. “Hunh?!” She pouted, and let out an exaggerated sigh. “Well, just <span class=""bb-i"">standing</span> here isn't going to do us any good. Does anyone have a -” She cut herself off as several people split off and went in different directions. “Oh. Good plan.” 

Parade was too dazzled by the sight of the helicopter to notice the group splintering off. Was that – a giant metal bird? But it has no wings! So bizarre, this place!

Once she had recovered, she turned to notice the group had become smaller. “Oh... are we going, then?” The host man had said they needed to find camp. But he hadn't said in which direction camp was... Parade took note of the sun's position in the sky, and then watched the flow of the current; then she started observing the flora, looking for any sort of beaten path.

---

Cut to the Confession Cam, where Parade was staring into the camera lens, making a small, curious noise. She tapped the lens several times before turning her attention to the rest of the booth, unsure of what to make of it. 
 
---

“That way.” Parade pointed toward what she thought looked like a lightly travelled path. “I think we should go that way.”</div>"

She looked at the camera lens, then down at her hands. ""I said I was doing this for you mum. I guess I'm doing it for myself, a bit too. I don't need anyone else. But I'm scsred of being alone. Like I have been, since you died. I'm going to win this. For you. For myself. And to prove that I can. I'm....just tired"" she left the box

-----

Instead of returning to the group, she entered the forest, and stood listening for a moment, eyes closed. There was always a sense of....silence in the forests. She drew in a deep breath and then drew it out, 

And then left the forest, looking about she sighed and followed Okiver and Vi. May as well be with people. Even if they were annoying.</div>"

He could follow the boy and the helicopter of course but the girl had said had also made sense. Used to being dragged round all his life, making decisions could be hard for Sam, especially as there probably something they hadn’t considered yet. He glanced around to see what the others were doing. Then he followed the small group into the forest, safety in numbers and all that, it also gave him someone to leave decision making to.

Eil shrugged, this wasn’t gonna be too bad, strolling over to the edge of the woods, but still keeping the majority of the pack in sight, she started examining plants, seeing a few that she recognized she plucked some, tucking them safely in her pocket for later. Glancing around she made a small exclamation of surprise, not quite loud enough for the others to hear. She had spotted another plant she knew. Grinning she bent down and plucked a handful of sour sword leaves, plopping them in her mouth and chewing contentedly. The taste was sour, like the name would suggest, but not overpowering. It was a taste Eil liked and was used to.
“That way, I think we should go that way.” Glancing round Eil saw a girl pointing towards a faint path, one Eil had not noticed till the girl pointed it out. “Yeah, sure, I’ll come with you.” Eil said than had a thought, “Actually, I might go round the island and check things out, dose anyone have any idea how big this place is?”</div>"

Alone again, he thought. Not like he wasn't used to it. If any of these morons watched the show, they would realize that Chris wouldn't waste money on helicopter gas to divert them, since he was so invested in spending top dollar on himself. He smiled, hearing the flow of a creek. As he reached the creek he heard, he saw a berry bush, and deciding he was a bit peckish, decided to snack on them. He plucked one from the bush and plopped it into his mouth. Just as he started chewing, his eyes grew really wide. ""Hot, hot, hot!"" he yelled. He ran around madly for a few seconds before splashing water into his mouth like a madman.

Chris sat and watched on his personal monitor, relaxed in a lawn chair along with Chef. He laughed and pointed at Ned in pain on the screen. ""Oh, man. I had a few species implanted here from various countries. That's a Portugese Spicebush, more conmonly known as Little Hot Death."" He laughed again, and Chef snickered. ""He is pretty close already though. Think we should have made a diversion?""

Chef thought for a second, then simply shrugged. ""More money for the future challenges.""

""I like the way you think, Chef. I like the way you think.""

So she changed direction and followed the way Ned had gone, and found the creak. She saw the berries, and pursed her lips for a moment, crouching down to study them. 

While they didn't look posioness, she didn't want to risk trying them as they didn't look like anything she had come across before. 

She sated any thirst she had from the creek, studying it for a moment, wondering if there were any fish in it. Wary of any attacks from strange creatures, Heloise broke a tree branch off a tree, and decided it was better to have it then to have nothing as a weapon. 

She followed the creek down the river slightly, and because she felt alone, and felt lost, she began to sing softly, wanting to give some noise to the forest. She studied plants and any life she came across, trying to see if there was anything she recognised, anything that could be used as healing ingredients or even just for simple flavor in foods. 

How long would she have to go, until she found the camp site? For now, she had water and that was the main thing.</div>"

She doesn't really have any kind of plan, and everyone has their own opinions on what way they will go, and to be honest, they do make sense, but for now, she's going with this blonde nerd. What was his name...Ned? He seems to know what he was doing. Veronica followed him as discreetly as she can, debating wether following him was a good idea.

She got her answer when the guy just eat this kind of plant then started yelling ""Hot!"" and splashing himself with the water.
-----
Veronica stared at the Confession Cam, brushing some of her hair off her face. ""Wow, and here I thought he was smart,"" she rolled her eyes. ""He looks pretty stupid there, to be honest. Reminds me of myself when I decided to scrounge for food in the trash because I have no choice when I was ten. Results weren't pretty...""
-----
Veronica regretted following this guy, but what the hell, it's just her and him right now, so she gotta make an alliance with him. Strength in numbers, right? You need someone who has your back if you're in a place where you have to survive by yourself. She decided to show herself. ""Hey, you okay there?"" She asked curiously, smirking in amusement.
-----
Adrian, on the other hand, went with Heloise, Oliver and Vi, since they're many, and they seem okay. It doesn't look like they're going to bore him anytime soon anyway. He sighed as he noticed Heloise leaving the group, disappointed that nothing's happening, but still trudges down the path, following the Oliver and Vi. ""Oh man, this is one bulky land to walk on,"" he complained.

Adrian shrugged and sighed, as if resigning himself to his fate. ""Well,it's Total Drama, right? Should've expected it.""</div>"

She stopped, and waited patiently for her new companion. ""How - big?"" Parade tapped her cheek, thinking. ""Euh... really big. Are you coming?"" her tone and expression were not impatient; in fact, she smiled gently, giving Eil all the time she needed to make a decision.

Oliver glanced over his shoulder at the sound of Adrian's voice - he had been unaware that the guy had been following them, and was more than a little startled to see him there. Oliver turned his gaze forward and crossed his arms. ""Whatever,"" he mumbled. ""You'll get used to it.""

---

""What?"" Oliver crossed his arms defensively, scowling slightly at the confession cam. ""The guy snuck up on me. Not cool, man.""

---

He turned his attention to Vi. ""Any idea where we're going?"" he asked softly, flipping his hair.

Seeing the group split up even more, Autumn made the arbitrary decision to follow Ned. ""Hey! Wait up!"" She shouted after him, running in the direction he had disappeared. She ran at full speed until he came into view, suddenly doubled over in pain and splashing himself. ""Hey -"" she hardly had time to stop before smashing into him at full-speed, tumbling headfirst over him and knocking them both into the creek. ""S-sorry!"" she stammered, trying to stand but struggling to get a solid footing on the slippery rocks.</div>"

""Raw fish won't kill you. But you really shouldnt eat everything that finds its way into your mouth."" she said softly to Ned, rising.

She was still careful of any diversion or trap, but focused on the buildings Ned had seen. While she was concerned about the others, she would always be trying to win this.

""Just because we are in contest doesn't mean I  want people to get hurt"" she said softly, briefly, fleetingly looking at the lens. ""And I might actually be on a team with some of these guys...so better to be nice.""

She called out for them, got any of the others that hadn't been following Ned.</div>"

""Anyone else want to take charge? I think my plan was a failure."" When Vi said that Sam just shrugged, making decisions wasn’t his strong point, but then he stopped, cocking his head. Frowning, he listened; faintly hearing a noise. “Ummm…… I think that way?” Sam pointed off in the direction of the sound, wincing as he said it: <span class=""bb-i"">why was he speaking out? Why?</span>

¬¬¬¬
Sam blinked, looking blankly at the camera, “Uhhh…… do I care? Ummm…… Why am I doing this? I dunno.”  

¬¬¬¬
Eil nodded at the girl, but couldn’t remember her name, “Yeah, I’ll come with you, sure.” Springing to her feet, she bounced over to the girl, “Hey what was your name? I’m Eil, and really bad at remembering names.”

¬¬¬¬
Eilif stared at the camera, they had been told they had to use it, not <span class=""bb-i"">HOW</span> they had to, so Eil was content to just stare.</div>"

And she placed her hands on her hips, watching Chris, making no move to stand beside him. He considered this fun? Heloise didn't want anyone to get hurt, and she wanted everyone to arrive safely. No sense in having a compertition if someone goes and breaks their ankle. 

With a sigh, she stepped to where she was told to go. 

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This time, she looked towards the camera, and said ""What, is chris too much of a coward to do all this himself, that he has to get his jollies out of watching others?"" She scoffed


_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

She crossed her arms over her chest, and didn't say anything, but hoped that her yelling before she was shushed was enough to draw the others towards this area.</div>"

She didn't waste any time and went walking towards beside Heloise. It was fun, Chris was right, but she couldn't help but wonder, ""Where are the others? Lost already?""
-----
Veronica shrugged indifferently, ""Whatever, I reached the camp, right? Less competition for me,"" she said. ""And Ned IS as smart as he's annoying, so I'll put up with him for now.""


Adrian huffed irritably as Vi just suddenly gave up. ""Well that was helpful a lot,"" he snapped. 

""Um...I think that way?""

Adrian glanced at the guy he wasn't aware of, but just threw his hands up as if he's 500% done. ""Okay, you're the new leader. Lead the way.""

Adrian pinched his nose in exasperation. ""I followed idiots, damn it.""</div>"

Of course they all are! You should take a look and see for yourself."" Chris said with a laugh, in response to Helloise. The television that was oddly placed in the middle of the campgrounds showed everything happening as if it were a TV show, with the best camera angles thanks to well hidden cameras around the island.

""Of course, this isn't even the main challenge for today. So let's hurry things up, shall we?"" Chris chuckled, then pressed a button on a remote he had. The TV monitor showed dangerous fauna being released all over the island. Bears, bobcats, and even...

""Is that Bigfoot?"" Ned gasped. The large, roughly ten foot tall primate exited its cage on camera, then shrugged and slowly walked off into the woods.

""Close, Ned. Close. Returning native from season one, Sasquatcanakwa! He's only dangerous if provoked. But trust me, you'll have plenty of chances to do that, hahaha.""

Ned looked wide eyed at the camera. ""Nevermind."" He said quickly in a slightly discomforted tone.

On the screen, it showed Adrian and co. Making there way along, but the camera showed one of the bears approaching at an angle in which that group could not see it, but close enough to definitely hear it. It flickered over to the third group, who were seemingly just about to get swarmed by locusts.</div>"

He doesn't mind losing this challenge, but this people just kept being annoying after all, and frowning can cause wrinkles, dammit! While muttering darkly, he heard a creak behind and promptly turned around...to see a huge bear closing in. His eyes widen in alarm.

""What the-"" he sputtered, then tried to warn the others. ""Okay, perfect time to panic and RUN, EVERYONE!"" He yelled the last part as he ran, ushering the others to do the same.
-----
Adrian was exploding in front of the Confession Cam. ""What the hell is that?!"" He demanded, pissed. A long string of curse words soon came out of his mouth.



Veronica's jaw dropped in shock. ""Well, isn't that...extreme,"" was all she could comment. She stared in silence first before saying, ""...okay, no one's dying, right?"" She asked doubtfully.
------
""Okay, maybe I SHOULD stick with Ned, and make sure not to get on Chris's bad side,"" she shuddered. ""Man, back in the streets, dying is almost a common tragedy, but hell, it's not a public execution most of the time!"" She ranted in an incredulous tone.</div>"

Flinching at the sudden loud noises, Sam bolted, running like a rabbit, streaking ahead towards where he had heard the sound earlier, blurring past Adrian on the way. It wasn’t the bear he was scared of, not that he had seen it, so much as the loud noises, made worse with the pounding of his feet seeming to reverberate, beating in time with his heart. Crashing through the trees, he tucked his head trying not to get hit in the face by branches, and so missed the looming root. Tripping over it he tumbled forward, rolling down an incline and coming to a stop at the edge of what appeared to be the camp. Staggering to his feet, he just kept running, fleeing towards human shapes, pelting flat out until, realizing he was going to crash straight into them, he slammed on the breaks, skidding a few feet before tumbling forwards again and coming to a sliding halt at someone’s feet.

¬¬¬¬
“Well I’m sorry I decided stopping was better than slamming into them. Arrrghhh…… why is life so hard?” He groused.

¬¬¬¬
Bugs, bugs, bugs everywhere. They had come in a sudden cloud and swarmed, oh the way they swarmed, Eil shivered, bugs didn’t totally faze her, at least not when there were only a few, but a swarm of bugs? No, no, no way. Her gut instinct really, <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> wanted her to run screaming, or curl up in a ball, but she was stubborn and completely refused to look like a complete idiot on the very first day. Later maybe. But not now. Flicking her hood up over her head she pulled her tee shirt up so it covered her mouth, keeping insects out and screams in. Ducking her head she headed towards what she hoped was the edge of the swarm, shuddering, and whimpering, the whole time. 

¬¬¬¬
She still stared at the camera, bug’s were horrible, but most people knew that.</div>"

She turned only to see an approaching bear. ""I-it's okay, guys. Bears are not hostile if you leave them al-"" just before she finished her sentence, the bear roared directly at her. She squealed, turned, and followed Adrian to wherever it was he was running. Sam, who she could see ahead of Adrian, had suddenly fallen down some sort of incline. The only thing she could think of was going to see if Sam was okay, so she tried her best to catch up to Adrian.

Chris chuckled at Sam's clumsiness. ""Welcome to camp, Sam! You're with Ned over here on my right. He then shouted at the two he knew were approaching. ""Adrian, you'll be on my left, and Violet on my right!"" Then, in a much softer tone, he answered Veronica with, ""No one is going to die... Yet. If someone got fatally injured on the first episode, that would be bad for ratings."" With this, Ned just simply shrugged, as he expected this from the insane host.</div>"

He'll have to give some credit to Sam later. He was finally inside camp, and skidded to a halt before Sam, and could've tripped by the body in front of them. He dragged himself to the position Chris instructed. ""Gosh, never ran that fast for life..."" He breathed out tiredly.
-----
""Never thought I'd be happy to see Chris, to be honest,"" Adrian deadpanned in front of the Confession Cam. ""Well, if he keeps the show interesting, I have no complaints.""



Veronica seems contented with this and nodded. She doesn't want any dying around here anyway. But if it will happen, well, that's the show's problem. She giggled when Sam fell just in front of them, she knelt down and said, ""Fell in love, already?"" She playfully joked.
-----
Veronica sassed, ""No way in hell am I dying here. I almost did in the streets, but not here. I'm winning this thing.""</div>"

Just because this was a competition didn't mean you had to be an complete arse. She offered her hand to Sam, to help him up. She didn't like the antics of this competition, didn't like the blantent disregard for people's lifes. Yes, this had to be entertaining. But she didn't think that people had to die for the viewers to get their jollies. 

She offered Sam an almost shy smile. ""Don't worry. You'll grow out of the clumsiness sooner or later. You just have to...not be so scared"" she said softly, ""at least you stopped though. I probably would have ended up crashing into someone"" her smile grew, just slightly.

Heloise squirmed in the confession cam. ""I dnot like people feeling bad. And allies are important, right?""</div>"

As for Veronica’s jab, he completely ignore that, he couldn’t be bothered finding the energy to reply, not that he’d be able to think up something good even if he did. Going over to stand where Chris indicated, Sam hoped the others made it out. Chris had said no one was going to die yet. Sam didn’t like the way he had emphasized the <span class=""bb-b"">yet</span> part.

¬¬¬¬
“Heloise. She’s nice, but don’t tell her I said that. Yeah?”

¬¬¬¬
Fighting her way out of the storm of bugs, Eilif reached the edge of the swarm, spat a small one out of her mouth, shuddering, and took off in a run, down the path that the girl had pointed out, leaving the bugs far behind. The path twisted and turned, carrying her deeper and deeper into what was no longer woods so much as a thickly overgrown jungle. When she thought she was far enough away from the bugs, Eil stopped and looked round, It was dark here, but not amazingly dark, there was enough light that she wasn’t scared, however the path disappeared, dissolving into nothing just ahead. On either side the trees loomed tall, spreading canopies that dangled with vines. Every thing felt too close, too cramped, trapped, trapped, trapped. The panic was building rapidly, boiling up inside her, forcing its way out. This wasn’t like the bugs, she could deal with bugs; sure they disgusted her, and possibly frightened her a little, they grossed her out certainly, when they swarmed, but this, this was a more primal fear. Spinning in a circle to face back the way she came, Eil sang softly; “And I don’t want the world to see me, ‘cause I don’t think that they’d understand, when everything’s made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am.” It was the first song that came into her head and while it might not be as amazing as proper pro performers, it was in it’s own terrified way kind of beautiful. But most importantly it helped to quell her fears, for now. She hadn’t quite been panicking, not like she could, but if she didn’t get out of here she would be. It was just as she was thinking this that something big blocked off the path ahead.</div>"

""And I'm going to need you to sit with the people you've been standing with. It'll make it less confusing!"" Chris shouted as they all left. Violet said nothing as she calmly made her way over to the building, so slowly and nonchalantly that she probably got there last.</div>"

Heloise rolled her eyes, and started off to the mess hall. She didn't approach anyone, perfering for now to continue to watch the others. And she didn't wish to interact any more just yet. It was better for her, to watch and observe and make opinions of the others, before figuring out who would be best to ally with</div>"

This time around, we'll be sending *Insert number here* amount of contestants to our summer camp, Wawanakwa. In this RP the entire goal is to create stereotyped characters to represent your common reality show personalities. These parodical individuals will then be sent to our island for six weeks to participate in a series of challenges the would probably cause any human rights activists to lose their minds.  The campers will all be competing for $100,000, and after each challenge, the ever eventful bonfire ceremony will be held to determine which camper will be voted off. Who are the voters, you ask? The other campers of course!  The game will start with the cast being split up into two even teams, and the first challenge will be held the moment the cast arrives, so as to determine who gets the reward selected. This is an example of a Reward Challenge, where the players will not be competing for survival, but simply additional luxury to take advantage of along with their... Basic accomadations.  After so many campers are left, the teams will be dissolved, and a dramatic free for all will ensue. That's where the fun begins. Also, on the island, contestants are free to use the Confessional any time they choose... Actually, they have to, at least periodically. Part of the contract. 

 Rules:

 •Make more than one character. The votes will be determined on characters' experience, not the players'. It's key to make sure that you remain in the game after your character was voted off, since someone will be booted at every bonfire.  

•Make your character reasonable. Everyone has varying morals, fears, and standards- some more than others. Variety=Interestingness... Not a word, but still.  

•New characters are more than welcome at the end of each season, when the setting is changed.  

•Keep it funny. Ludicrous and far-fetched. That's the entire idea behind this RP. Drama and comedy.  

•The Confessional is a camera taped to the inside of an outhouse door... So, that's to give you an idea of what it is, how to use it, and etcetera. Also the kind of ridiculousness accepted in this RP.  

•Know your limits. This applies to... Well, everything.  

•Let's have as much fun as possible.  

I'll be playing your extremely narcissistic host, Chris McLean, and your chef who couldn't give a crap about whether his food is still alive or not, Chef Hatchet. I may throw in a contestant or two as well.  Questions? Feedback? Wanna go ahead and sign up? You are more than welcome to do so here!

This'll be low casual minimum, with the max being simply to not be excessive. Due to the nature of this RP, it'll be largely dependent on player interaction. That means quicker posts of length that is not that of a one liner. 4 lines per post should be good, but at least two is okay if you make them every little while. I understand people get busy.</div>"

Appearance: <img src=""http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4113/4993548408_ef2790c074.jpg""/>
Motivation: Free 100.000 Dollars? Dan is in. He doesn't care about any risks or whatever, he just is here to make a quick buck. And hey, its always better than his life on the streets, right?
Backstory: Dan Bourne has always been a troublesome kid, and once he turned 18, his parents kicked him out of his house. The first thing he did after that was go to the liquid store, and waste all his money there. Dan Bourne is living on the streets nowadays, and doesn't care about anybody or anything, including his own health. When he was offered to join this program, he couldn't refuse. Worst case scenario, he is stuck on an island with some idiots and free food. Thats better than what he is used to. Best case scenario? 100k dollars in the bank, that will probably get him some quality weed to smoke.
Personality: Dan doesn't care about anybody or anyone, making him lazy as it gets. If he had the choice to walk a mile, or not eat for a day, he wouldn't eat. Worn clothes, bad attitude, he got it all. If he were to die, he wouldn't even care.
Misc: Him not caring about anything has it ups and downs.
He doesn't really fear anything, but he is too lazy to do anything. He has nothing to lose either, so he won't take any risks either.</div></div>

Gender: Male
Appearance: <img src=""http://www.mortalkombatwarehouse.com/mk/johnnycage/versus_full.png""/>
Motivation: Johny Johnson really likes fame, so he wants to stay in the competition as long as possible. He couldn't care more or less about the money, he wipes his ass with 100k dollars.
Backstory: Johny came from a rich family, and never had to work for anything, making him lack skills in basically every aspect that there is. His parents live in a mansion, and he is used to being spoiled all the time. When he heard about this program, he immediately signed up, as it was a nice way to obtain some fame.
Personality: Johny's ego is huge, as he thinks he is number 1, and that he outclasses each and everybody on the island. Besides being cocky, he is spoiled, and would rather not make his hands dirty.
Misc: The fact that he misspelled his own name on his chest when getting it tattooed proofs that he is an idiot. His only redeeming quality is that he is quite good at acting, which might help him out. He refuses to get his hands dirty.</div></div>

Backstory: Dan Bourne has always been a troublesome kid, and once he turned 18, his parents kicked him out of his house.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Oliver Prior"" type=""button"">Oliver Prior [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Oliver Prior

Gender: 
Male

Age: 
17

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/kZsLQ0H.jpg""/>

Motivation: 
Oliver sees reality TV as a gateway to his one true dream: becoming an A-list acting powerhouse. He figures that with the $100,000 grand prize, he can afford to move to Hollywood and hire an agent – and with the fame that comes with winning, landing roles would be a piece of cake. At the same time, he sees this particular reality show as an opportunity to show off how masculine he can be, something that has as of late become very important to him.

Backstory: 
Oliver grew up in a small, rural town. Since he was a child, he only had one dream: to one day go to Hollywood and see himself on the big screen. As a young teen, he found himself to be quite popular with the girls in his class, and while he wasn't quite as interested in them as they were in him, he figured he might as well take advantage of the attention and began dating serially. At 16 though, Oliver made a world-shattering realization: he was actually gay. Afraid of this revelation, he kept it to himself and actually stepped up his dating game with the ladies, suddenly terrified that others had somehow discovered it in him as well.

Personality: 
To those who don't know him, Oliver appears to be a regular bro: handsomely aggressive, aggressively handsome, and a merciless flirt to any pretty girl who will put up with it. Behind his façade though, lies a soft-spoken, confused young man whose real passion is method acting. He tends to avert his eyes when talking to guys he finds particularly attractive.

Misc:
Oliver is an avid reader of poetry. He would kill for a nice... significant other with whom he can stay up until sunrise talking about favourite poems and poets. He particularly enjoys Emily Dickinson. He also recently broke up with his latest girlfriend, just hours after being picked for this show.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Parade"" type=""button"">Parade [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Parade

Gender:
Female

Age:
18

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/ZscZpB4.jpg""/>

Motivation:
… You know, she's not sure. Parade doesn't really know which direction life is taking her – and that is just the way she likes it. 

Backstory:
Parade spent most of her childhood in a small commune. Although she was happy there, at 16 she left the commune, guided by a vision that told her to go out into the world and find her true purpose. She hitchhiked across the country for nearly a year, living off the kindness of strangers, before finally being arrested for starting a campfire in a city park. While in lockup she befriended a fellow drifter, and after they were both released they toured the country together in his rickety caravan. Eventually she was recruited for this show, and while she doesn't entirely understand what that means, she sure is excited to be a part of it.

Personality:
Parade is very laid back and care free. She doesn't quite understand the outside world yet, but she is curious and eager to learn. She especially has gotten herself in trouble when it comes to monogamy – she finds the idea not only pointless, but completely alien, having grown up in a community where free love reigned. She works well with others, but can be incredibly naïve, not always recognising when she is being taken for a fool.

Misc:
Parade is literate, but just barely. Her drifter friend has been kind enough to teach her during their travels. She likes to smoke trees, shoot the breeze and even occasionally spend some quality time with Lucy. Making love is one of her favourite things to do.</div></div>

Gender:
Female

Age:
18

Appearance:
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/z1hNZsm.jpg""/>

Motivation:
Fame and fortune, of course! Well, that and the fact that $100,000 will really help get her music career off the ground. Nothing quite like the publicity that comes with winning a reality show to get Autumn Bailey on the map!

Backstory:
Autumn grew up in the suburbs of a major city. She got involved with the underground music scene from a young age, going to shows with her much older brother, and after watching an underground band she was familiar with get signed to a major label, she decided that she was going to one day do the same. She formed a band with two close friends, booked a few shows, and learned to sing and play guitar, in that order. After a year and a half of “touring” (which in reality was just playing the same handful of underground venues for $25 a show, over and over) the band split, and Autumn decided to pursue a solo career, which has seen similar success... or lack thereof.

Personality:
Autumn is perky, happy, and confident. She puts her mind to something, and then she does it. And then she keeps doing it until she succeeds. She's a social butterfly and loves to meet new people, but doesn't always work well in groups – that same drive to succeed sometimes gets in the way of her ability to think beyond what she personally has set out to do.

Misc:
Autumn's confidence tends to blind her to her own shortcomings. She's convinced that her lack of success as a musician is a result of not having the proper exposure – not playing the right venues at the right time, not inviting the right people to see her shows. It has never once occurred to her that perhaps her lack of success has something to do with her lack of real musical talent.</div></div></div>"

Okay, don't take this the wrong way when I say it... I'm perfectly okay with having homosexual characters on here, but I am not comfortable with any actual, physical homosexual romance. Can we meet in the middle and agree to not having any actual gay relationships? Again, please don't get upset. I don't want to offend anyone. I'm just incredibly uncomfortable with any such actions taking place. BUT I'm cool with gay characters. Heck, I have a gay friend. So deal?</div>"

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Appearance: <img src=""http://data3.whicdn.com/images/111456359/original.png""/>

Motivation: The money, of course! She's winning this thing and she won't let anyone stop her. She doesn't care about fame and all, she just wants to live a stable life where you don't have to steal and fight to survive in the streets.

Backstory: Veronica grew up in the poorest part of town, and where she and her family live in the squatters' area. Of course, in the end they were got rid of from their homes and that's when Veronica decided to leave her parents and face the world alone. She was ten years old then, so she doesn't really know what she was talking about but she kept her word. She grew up on the streets and learned how to look out for herself.

Personality: Veronica is a VERY determined person. When she puts her mind onto something, she will do everything to get it. However, she's also tad playful at times, often sending out double entendres and innuendos, but that's only because watching people's reaction are very amusing. She's confident on her abilities and and won't hesitate to play dirty to achieve her goal.

Misc: Veronica fears that she'll someday die in the streets without even having progress in her life. She's also scared of spiders for some reason, and has always avoided them since she was little.

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: <img src=""http://otakuswonderland.weebly.com/uploads/1/9/1/0/19105971/8807764_orig.jpg""/>

Motivation: Well, the prize is actually a second motivation, he was in because of the publicity mostly, but his main goal for joining the show is to witness the drama that is about to happen in the island, and he will enjoy every second watching it, being the casual observer and the son of a paparazzi slash celebrity blogger and gossiper.

Backstory: Adrian grew up in the orphanage until he was five, wherein he was adopted by Ashton Ross, a flamboyant and openly gay paparazzi who is famous for blogging celebrity gossips and secrets. Of course, Adrian soon began to inherit his adopted father's traits, like the flashy clothing and annoying nosiness. They were well-off, and Adrian doesn't have any problems with his father.

Personality: Adrian is aspiring to be like his adopted father and tries to follow his footsteps. He has no sense of privacy and doesn't know the meaning of no, and will stick his nose into your business if he's interested whether you like it or not. He's blunt and rude at times, but he has a soft side somewhere...probably. He's flamboyant and flashy, like his father, and dyed his hair pink because he thinks it's fabulous. He acts and talks quite femininely, but he's straight, that he's sure of.

Misc: Despite wanting to be like his father, he's also scared that people will compare him to his father, ruining originality. He's also claustrophobic.</div>"

Age: 18 
Gender:female 
Appearance:<img src=""https://teenswritingstories.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/blue-eyes-brown-hair-girl-green-nature-favim-com-460268-e1348525186654.jpg""/>
Motivation: To get enough money to write, and publish her book, while funding herself for college. For her mother. 
Backstory: Heloise was raised by her mother. Her father left before Heloise could even form any memories of him, and her mother worked hard to give her a good life. Heloise was always interested in stories, and writing them, and her mother encouraged that, giving her everything she needed, even if it was mostly second hand. When her mother got sick, Heloise took over a lot of responsibility, juggling school work, and a part time job, as well as caring for her mother. Her mother died just before her graduation, and Heloise struggled for a few months, but vowed to do her best, to honor her mothers memory. 
Personality: Heloise is a kind and caring young woman. She is quite, prefering to keep to herself then to being in a group. She likes solitude, and uses the time she is with other people to observe them. She is a strong, determined young woman, and dedicated to her dream of becoming a writer. 
Misc: She is afraid of spiders, snakes and failing. Her lack of confidence sometimes makes her second guess herself, and as a result, she is constatnly worrying about what she writes, and if she will be good enough.</div>"

As different as possible. Ghetto, nerdy, atheltic, muscular, strategic (but not manipulative), bossy, preppy, etc. any personality goes. On the show I based this off of, one guy even had Multiple Personality Disorder. I'm not restricting anyone from that, aside from just one character in the whole thing getting that.

Name:
Delilah Green

 Age: 
18 

Gender: 
Female

 Appearance: 
Delilah is fairly short, though not excessively so she is generally one of the shorter people in any room. Her left eye is a light blue with her right being brown, having what’s known as complete heterochromia. Her naturally straight hair is a gently amber colour, usually tied back into a ponytail for practicality. She has often been told she has a very ‘cute’ face with an almost innocent look always spread across her features. 

Motivation: 
Delilah wants to come out of her shell a little more, as well as possibly learning to be a bit more assertive and impulsive. The prize money would be great too, but she doesn’t really think she’ll actually win – not that it will stop her from trying as hard as she can. She also hopes to make some friends whilst she is there. 

Backstory: 
What is there to say, she grew up in a small rural community as a part of a small family. Both her parents are quiet and gentle people and she has picked up many of their traits. Finishing school she stayed at home to help around the farm being an animal lover through and through, though her parents loved this they often spoke to her about spreading her wings and doing something big that she really cares about. It was hard to tell them that she was perfectly happy where she was, but over time has come to understand what they mean and is now starting to try new things and expand her circle. 

Personality: 
Soft, gentle and a generally calm and very caring person Delilah is a little withdrawn and definitely shy at times. Generally happy and very calm as well as a bit of a pushover she will go with whatever the majority of people want most of the time. That being said she is trying to change and become more independent and  bold, but it has yet to be seen if she will be able to go through with her plans. 

Misc: 
Lover of animals, music and gardening amongst other things. Generally anything tied to farm living she is more than happy to do.

She has quite a few fears that have yet to be discovered seeing as she has lived a very sheltered life, though already quite a few things get to her. Things like uncomfortable situations or horrible people mostly, but surely Chris McLean will help her find out just what else she is really scared of. 

Let me know if anything needs changing, adding or anything.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sam Woodward
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Motivation:</span> None. Nope. Nil. Nada. Nicht. Zip. Zill. (You get the picture) Not even for the money. Sure it’d be great if he did win, that money would keep him happy for a long time, but really? Moneys not all that great. At least, not in Sam’s opinion.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> Sam, having little motivation in his life for anything, grew up being dragged off to things by his dad, in an attempt to interest him in something. Other than books. He has been dragged to sport games, to music concerts, workshops, rallies, and recitals. The latest, and most drastic thing his dad has done is sign him up for this reality show thing. Sam has only a vague idea of what he’s getting into, and is in for a pretty nasty surprise.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Sam is a fairly simple person, he doesn’t want much from life Quite unmotivated most of the time, he will stick to things through and through, <span class=""bb-i"">if</span> they perk his interest. Books are one thing Sam likes, that and a bit of good music. Good food is also another thing. Quiet for the most part, Sam can be quite smart but nearly never shows it. He actually quite enjoys many of the things he gets dragged to, (except for the often-present loud noises,) but that doesn’t motivate him to participate in anything else. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Misc:</span> Loud, excessive, or constant noises, being left behind, huge crowds, large amounts of water; these are things Sam fears. Bad food is even worse. However if Sam can find a reason to be bothered with anything he will stick it out; through thick, thin, and dog poop (if he has to).</div>"

Gender: Female
Age: 16
Home Region: Hoenn
Appearance: Agatha Has long dark red hair and brown eyes. Her skin is pale and she's very thin. She carries a green bag with her and it has a Torchic plushy poking its head out of the front pocket.
Personality: Agatha is a warm and friendly girl. She loves Pokemon more than anything. Especially her Breloom. The two are practically inseparable. The two act like one mind, Agatha being the emotional side and Breloom being the logical one. Agatha tends to be shy at first but quickly grows friendly and trusts easily. She has a distinct fear of fire type Pokemon (probably from her close relationship with Breloom.)
Bio: Agatha is an Ace Trainer from Hoenn. She prefers a wide array of Pokemon on her team.
Pokemon on the team: Breloom* (the only one thus far. Given to her by her father.)

Pokemon: Breloom
Gender: Male
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/hhu5tLW.jpg""/>
Bio: Given to owner Tabatha Lione by her father. Breloom is close to his owner as he was there for most of her childhood. He is a companion Pokemon and has never been trained for fighting. He only knows Tackle and Stun Spore. He is never kept in a ball except for extremely rare cases. He has learned the ability to speak from being around people his whole life. His vocabulary is limited and his grammar is far from stellar.</div>"

Trainer Class: Pokemon Trainer

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Home Region: Amona

Appearance: <img src=""http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/309/2/7/thing_s_i_ll_never_say__hilbert_x_reader_drabble__by_ambertruesdale-d6t6cbu.jpg""/>

Personality: Isacc is an optimist looking on the bright side of things even if things aren't going the greatest for him. He is intelligent and knows a vast amount of knowledge about pokemon like what foods they like or even ways to calm down an angry pokemon. Isacc's biggest flaw however is sometimes he can be a little awkward to talk to as he tends to be to busy studying or working at his aunt and uncles pokemon research lab where he mostly helps train the various pokemon they get such as his eevee. Isacc is very calm aswell and tends to take peoples negativity lightly as it just makes the others around him more negative if he goes with the negativity.

Trainer History: Despite going to the trainer school in Amona for years and helping at a research lab Isacc has never really gone on any adventures with his pokemon the most he's done is battle other students and occasional starting trainers wanting to test their starter out the moment they've received them. He is however a rather skilled trainer despite this and his win to lose ration is astounding. Besides his Eevee Isacc has the egg of a Froakie with him aswell given to him as a present from his parents in kalos for graduating from the trainer's school

Starter: Eevee (shiny unable to evolve) 

The Eevee is nicknamed Xeno pronounced z-no

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>  When someone first meets Jynmi they come to the conclusion that since he's quiet, he must by shy, and that means he has to be a push over.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Yes, he's very easy going, and doesn't actively seek conflict, but he's not one to back down when his pride is on the line, or more importantly, someone he cares for.  He's an avid reader, and enjoys cold weather.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>:  Jynmi grew up in Fuchsia City, technically, but most of his actual time up was spent nearby in the Safari zone, which was run by his grandmother.  He learned early on to stick close to his grandmother because of an event that happened early on in life.  He was about three, at the Safari zone, and wondered off while his grandmother was busy giving someone directions on where to go to get a specific pokemon they were looking for.  It all seemed well enough until he crossed paths with a particularly irate Tauros, which didn't like him one bit.  The pokemon let him know this by howling angrily and charging at him.  If not for a nearby Kangaskahn, who happened to be behind Jynmi, thinking the bull was heading for her, and rushing out to meet the attack head on, he would've well been trampled.  Eventually though, after forcing the angry animal to flee the mama pokemon noticed Jynmi, and stayed with him till his grandmother returned.  From that day on, Jynmi made a point of seeing the mother, and eventually managed to convince it to leave with him on a journey to a newly discovered region.

Name: Milo Cash 

Trainer Class: Traveler 

Gender: Male 

Age: 15

Home Region: Hoenn  

Personality: Milo doesn't care really, he's just off to enjoy life. Throughout trainer school his grades reflected not caring, but his testing was great. He will only apply himself to things he feels are worth his time and battling isn't really even something he cares about. All he cares about is keeping people safe, and enjoying life with his Mightyenna, looking at life as ""if you get stressed then why do you bother living, stress means you aren't living life the way you should've."" 

Trainer History: No real history, he doesn't care about strength he just travels and has fun with it. The only technical training history is trainer school which if you asked a teacher he sucked at.
  
Starter: Mightyenna (pooch)</div>"

Personality: He a pretty laid back person and is only serious when it comes to Pokemon battles though there have been a few exceptions to this over the years.

Trainer History: He use to be a prominent fighter in the Colosseum's but eventually he found him self looking for more to do but since there was not much else to do because of the low population of wild Pokemon he found him self looking for a new place to travel to. When he heard tell of a dangerous land filled with large quantity of Pokemon normally not found in the same place he thought it was the perfect place to find the new opportunity's he was looking for so he set off immediately with a Scizor he had recently breed in anticipation for the venture he had been searching for.

Though the city was rather busy at the docking port as several boats were entering the city carrying fresh new faces to the Amona region.

 They will be arriving in only a short twenty minutes I wonder what those heading to the region are planning or what they expect to see at the region? Who really knows all that is known is they will have a journey filled with happy moments and sad moments but they will also gain alot of personal growth and better understand themselves and the pokemon around them.

Isacc was having a pleasant sleep dreaming of how his adventures in this region would go he's finally done in the trainers school finally a trainer registered in the Amona league and even registered for contests in the region he was bound to have an amazing journey ahead of him.

Though his dreams were short lived as soon his alarm went off waking both him and his eevee Xeno....

<font color=""#f26522"">""Oh it's already morning I should probably get ready and head off to the trainers school so I can finally head out on my journey...C'mon Xeno let's do this!""</font>

With that Isacc got ready for they day he dressed packed what he'd need into his trusty bag dressed,combed Xeno and then the two of them ate and immediately ran off to the trainer's school to start off there day.

Agatha awake to Breloom's gentle prodding. A warm breeze flowed through her open window. She turned to face the Pokemon. ""Good morning, Breloom. Yes. I'm awake.""

Breloom bounced a little. ""Ship?"" He sounded excited. It took her a moment to remember what he meant. Then it hit her. She wasn't in her bed at home. She was on a ship to the Amona region! How exciting!

Twenty minutes, give or take, before they made landfall at the port.  It would've been simple enough to walk around the deck, and watch the water and sky for pokemon.  He wasn't sure if he'd be able to catch anything, but it would be nice to see what was around if he ever came back this way again on his own.  It was just he was too tired for anything more than sleep, and didn't want to do it on a bench, again.  He settled on the sleeping cabins, and found the third one he tried unlocked.  ""Shhh.""  He whispered to the large Kangaskahn behind him.  ""Come on.""  They crept in and he closed the locked the door behind them.  ""Okay just ten minutes.""  He quickly got undressed and set the alarm next to the bed.  He all but jumped in the bed, closed his eyes, and drifted off into a heavy slumber.

Fifteen minutes later, he was still asleep.  The boat would be arriving soon, said the digital clock on the side of the young man's bed, but he paid it no mind.  Sleep hadn't come easy that night thanks to all the excitement.  So he lay in his bed, snoring softly, dreaming of battles, badges, fame, and victories.  A smile appeared on his face.  
Mama was up well before Jynmi, aware of the time, and when the boat was set to arrive, but she didn't make any effort to wake up him.  Instead, she busied herself watching her child move around on shaky legs, exploring the small room, sniffing things here and there.  The little Joey, as Jynmi had come to call him, didn't find himself with very many chances to wonder around on his own so he made the most of it by seeing to it that every edge, corner, and surface of the room was touched, sniffed, tasted, and touched again. 
Little Joey was in the process of once again investigating the part of Jynmi's blanket which hung off the bed, sniffing it and then giving it a light tug.  The sheet slid off, and caused the young man's eyes to open.  He blinked blearily and looked around.  The scene looked familiar enough.  Mama at a corner, watching Joey, his bag on the opposite end of the room.  Joey looking up at him, blanket in hand.  The clock reading thirty minutes after the time it was supposed to go off at.
""I'm late again, aren't I Mama?""  He mumbled,  The Kangaskhan nodded, and stepped across the room to pick up the Joey, who went willingly, with a frown, into her sack.  ""Oh God I'm late!""  Jynmi jumped out of bed, put on his clothes, grabbed his pack, and hurried out his room, hoping against hope he hadn't missed breakfast.  Mama followed without a word, half smiling because she still found the whole song and dance amusing.</div>"

""Hey big man, you ready to walk around a bit? Can't be long before we get to shore."" Pooch instantly kicked up, already moving to the door. ""Alright brohan, guess you do want the fresh air,"" Milo said a light laughter in his voice.
They explored the deck for a while watching the many a pokemon that lived in the ocean and in the sky. After their pokemon watching, Milo looked at a clock time for breakfast. ""Hey Pooch, looks like we can go eat now."" ""<span class=""bb-i"">Might, Mighty, Might, Mightyenna</span>"" ""Look man, food is food, just enjoy it while we got it.

NPC/World Events
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last of the boats were now arriving and with a loud whistle they made port and the remaining people prepared to get off hmmm where any late though? Maybe sleeping where they shouldn’t be?

but with that the Pokemon Trainers school quickly opened 7am sharp waiting for the new trainers to enter and do their tests to prove they're strong enough to travel the Amona region safely these tests wouldn’t be too hard and you only need to pass 3 of the 4 tests but only the highest ranked of the trainers would receive a Pokenav + V2.0 the ultimate source of navigation now with a radio and video calls as well as email built in the average trainers simply get a pokegear and the low ranking trainers a town map with having to do a special fifth test to make sure they will be alright.

The proctors were prepared for any trainers with their teams selected from and trained by the regional professors. 

Though on this nice an momentous day not everyone was upto good there was a somewhat sinister aura around but what could cause this?

None other than Team Zodiac a rather mysterious group working on many experiments on both Pokemon and Humans...learning off other organizations actions in the past such as team rockets technology forcing pokemon to evolve and go berserk along with the added power of Ciphers shadow pokemon technology and sang machines and with the use of team Galactics red chains they could easily control these powerful pokemon with ease unlike those before them they even used team Plasma’s airship technology to easily strike around the region and be nearly impossible to track. You could say they are some of the most dangerous people around though little is known about them who is their leader does everyone have the same plans? all that is known is they have 12 leaders each following under one of the 12 chinese Zodiac.... 

<font color=""#ec008c"">???:”hmhmhm...all these new trainers so many chance to plant some shadow pokemon...”

Grunt:”sir all the shadow pokemon were successfully swapped with the normal pokemon what would you like us to do with the ones we stole?”

???:”Send to them to HQ if any have the potential to be strong shadow pokemon tell them to do it the others make disappear....”

Grunt: “Sir yes sir!”

Grunt 2: “Sir you got a call to return to base what would you like the rest of us to do?”

???:”Have a little fun...”</font>



Isacc and Q
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q laid back waiting for his chance to be allowed to move on and battle all to his hearts content but unfortunately it would still be quite sometime before the trainers just arriving off the boats would arrive at the trainer school and he would be able to take the rest of the tests. Until then he would rest up for the battles.
 
Isacc was now in front of the trainers school when he noticed someone laying against the wall beside the front door’s he had an aura of professionalism about him but at the same time seemed very laid back. Isacc soon remembered him from the practice test held the day before...hmmm he seemed to have the highest score by the end...Xeno soon walked upto the man and made a small but cute cry meaning hello.

Isacc quickly noticed and decided he may as well say hello as well...

<font color=""#f7941d"">“Hello there you were there during the practice test yesterday right? Getting ready for the real tests today?”</font>

Q looked up when he heard the trainer speak to him. “Ya just waiting for the rest to arrive what are you doing here from what I saw yesterday I <font color=""#ed1c24"">thought you were already a registered trainer since you were helping out and all.”</font>

Isacc laughed a little and in a cheerful voice told the trainer he hadn’t been able to receive his Pokenav + v2.0 until today and he was the new trainers partner in the double battle test partner. he then noticed the doors were open then began to walk inside but stopped and then asked the other trainer if he’d like to come inside while they waited for everyone to arrive.

Q was surprised by the trainers generosity in Orre he had only been treated nicely on few occasions  due to the areas where he normally battled. <font color=""#ed1c24"">“sure why not there might be a better place for me to rest in there”</font></div>"

She was so ready to get started. She could see land coming up on the horizon and her heart did a few flips. This was it! Her moment to shine.

<font color=""#8dc73f"">Breloom sat with his feet and head hanging over the side of the boat. His face was an unusual shade of green. He hated water. Being tossed around on its surface in a boat was not his idea of a great time, but he did it for Agatha. He looked up at her, happy to see her smiling so big. Then he quickly turned forward as another pulse of vomit forced its way out of his mouth.</font></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Story:</span>

Welcome to the Amona region a new region found only 50 years ago development has been going fine however there is still much to explore any many young and old trainers looking for adventure your one of them. The journey begins in the port town named Amona city it is small compared to many of the other cities in the region but is home to the trainer school and pokemon professors of the region the Maples it has a large diversity of trainers and pokemon most trainers in Amona begin their journey here. You yourself are heading there on the S.S Anne #2 a very high Tech boat built to travel between all the regions at a high speed or maybe you live in the Region and have entered Amona city to start your journey regardless your journey begins here. Just remember unlike other regions to become a qualified trainer of the Amona region you must complete a small test in the trainers school to get your trainers license,badge case and ribbon case. and unlike other regions Hm's do not exist instead there are special tools that can be bought at stores to help you travel the region.

<span class=""bb-b"">Rules:</span>

age limit: 12-40 (no ten year olds because the region is rather dangerous)
no killing other players pokemon (yes you can kill wild pokemon and some trainers pokemon)

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 21
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: V
<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: Japanese
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: Six ringed Shakujō
<span class=""bb-b"">Gear</span>: Various prayer slips

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: <a href=""http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/227/c/2/monk_by_tfsean-d6d01qh.jpg"">Image</a>
Katsu stands at 5' 4"" and weighs a modest 110 lbs. His facial features are sharp and he has a very lean build. He keeps himself clean shaven save for the top of his head which he keeps at a low buzz cut. While he is at the office his attire consists of a business suit, but during missions and free time he opts to wear his monk's robes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>:
Soft spoken and good-hearted, Katsu is the pinnacle of respect. Always swift and to the point, he has caught the eyes of many within the Agency for his ability to process information quickly and act appropriately. Most times he can come off distant and disinterested, but this is only because he is often very busy with a lot on his mind. His free time is usually spent alone unless he is invited out, which he will always accept as he finds it rude to reject someone's charity.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>:
The Fukui family has been part of the Agency for fifteen generations, and a devout family of monks. When he was born, it was expected that he do the same, and such he went through life. He remembers his young days were full of traveling, studies into mythology and lore, and how to wield his Light to aid the cause. The first time he was able to manifest his Light was when he was six, it poured out of him an encased him in a bubble. A month later his father took him along on an extermination mission to have him test his skill. His memory of a harpy swooping down to steal him away was his first combat experience, the intense fear of something bigger, much older, and way more powerful than him reaching out with its clawed legs shook him to the core. The Light surged out of him, and the harpy bounced off of his protective shield, and it did so again and again. The fear he had turned to happiness, then to pride, he realized he had the power to deny them, he had the power to tell them no.

At the age of fourteen he was assigned to a city in Japan, his first station as a Knight. As the years went on he would be transferred from city to city and he got to meet more and more people within the Agency. To this day it amazes him how few people the agency has, and it has showed him that each man lost is a dire blow to TERA. On the day he was appointed Leader of the TERA Knights of Grayridge, he vowed that he would not loose anyone to the nightmares, that no one would get left behind or dragged off to unimaginable horrors. Having held this position for just under two years, he has kept that oath to the best of his abilities, because some times things happen that you couldn't have planed for, and those are the thing that make him feel like his six year old self again.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>:
When he is not busy working, he like to take the time to either meditate or browse art galleries. He is also an avid reader of fiction and children s books, which he calls research.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style</span>: Support
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Creates wards and barriers that prevent those of malicious intent from passing. The barrier can be held around himself or on a stationary position he sets up. Having been a squad leader of TERA for some time now, he has the combat expertise and foresight to plan an attack against most minor threats and some greater threats. Using his Shakujō he can fend for himself, but it is difficult for him to put up a new barrier if he is engaged in combat.</div>"

He values self-sufficiency strongly but realises that making friends is necessary to survive. He enjoys traveling and wandering, and spends an equal amount of time wandering in his own mind, something he’d call meditation but is closer to daydreaming. He is passionate and will talk fast, and enthusiastically about anything he finds interesting.</div></div>

He is the only child from a family of shamans. Being raised as a shaman for this village is intensive. You are the heart and soul of the village, and as such you must be both a polymath, able to advise expertly in almost any situation, but you must almost be highly resilient, as a weak body means a weak mind. This was a role that Aleksandr was born for, he took to it like a fish to swimming, every waking moment he spent training to take on the mantle of responsibility from his mother, the previous shaman. He hunted every day, learning the ways of the wild. It was on the edge of life and death, where he was almost starving and down to a single arrow when he was in fact most alive. His resilience and his connection to the living world marked him out as a natural shaman. However when he turned 12 he was recruited to TERA, who had discovered his family's natural affinity to the light. 
Aleksandr agreed with his mother that should anything happen to her he would return immediately, and he explained to her that he saw being part of TERA as his path in life, and that his travels would be a 'right of passage' for him. It was with this that he left his small village, and was immediately posted to Grayridge. The experiences he has had as a member of TERA have illustrated to him that the world is so much bigger than he had thought but also much more dangerous. HE now realises that to promise a safe return was foolish and he constantly battles with his fear, as he is not yet ready to lay down his life for TERA.</div></div>

Coming into civilisation has opened his eyes to biology and chemistry, or the sciences of life, and he uses most of his spare time studying them. He also tries to keep up with his shamanic training by making a point of visiting the wilderness as often as his work will allow.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 14
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: I
<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: American
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: Magic Grow Capsules
<span class=""bb-b"">Gear</span>: Pouch on belt. When lid is pulled it acts sort of like a tape measure, onto which various capsules are stored.
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Short, with short blond curly hair. Often dressed very professionally with a suit and tie, a vest, clean shoes, because such a look is as close as one can get to the dignity of a knight without actually donning armor. Despite this, his tie is always some sort of ludicrous novelty design. He has a pair of long thin scars running down the left side of his face that <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> miss his left eye.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Daniel is a small friendly guy. He tries very much to live up to the platonic ideals of knighthood, striving to be polite, generous, honorable, and chivalrous in all situation. When people speak to him, he listens. Really listens, and remembers, because you are important. He's kind of intense, and it tends to put people off. It's like he's laser focused all the time, on everything. He is, without question, a workaholic.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Daniel has wanted to be a Knight ever since he was five, when his entire life was stolen away by the machinations of a spiteful neighbor. The man put a monster under young Daniels bed, and when his parents went to check...well, he's blocked most of the memories of that night from his mind. He does remember one thing, though. The Knight.

A shining figure in the dark of his room, holding him, monster dead on the floor. For Daniel this was akin to a religious experience. For all intents and purposes adopted by his savior, who was themselves barely a teenager at the time, Daniel was brought up in Knighthood. His foster parent drilled in the philosophy of the light, the merits of behaving virtuously, and the benefits of always being prepared. He took these lessons to heart and entered the Knighthood himself at twelve, working with the fervor of a fanatic.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>: Daniel is always trying to organize something. A baseball league, a ball, a charity, a tournament. If there is a committee he wants on it. If there is a meeting he wants to be a part of it. He likes being around people, and on the off chance that there is nothing for him to work on in his downtime you'd be able to find him in a park, or a restaurant, or a club, somewhere where he will be surrounded by them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style</span>: Variable. Because of the way he uses his light he prefers to hold back and watch for a hole that needs filling.
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Daniel infuses light into Magic Grow Capsules, bringing them to life as servants. They become bigger and stronger, taking on the characteristics of the thing they were made in the image of while still remaining spongy and malleable. Bringing these creatures of light to life takes a lot out of Daniel, realistically meaning that he's only able to do it once every day. In addition, they have a rather short lifespan of six hours, whereupon they dissolve.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: I

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: British

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: <a href=""http://www.spirithalloween.com/images/spirit/products/interactivezoom/processed/07094840.interactive.a.jpg"">A cane</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gear</span>: A smart phone, which he uses to store profiles and skip to deductions based on intel gathered in field work, and a small notebook with a pen which he uses to write messages.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Standing at 5'9, with a weight of around 130 pounds, <a href=""http://th02.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/034/7/2/waiting_by_tori001-d74x4p6.png"">Aaron</a> is a rather slim fella. Mistaking his slim build for a physical shortcoming, however, is one many are bound to make. While not guaranteed to emerge as a winner, he is able to hold his own against a man twice his age and body size, without
employing the Light. His most unique traits are his natural blue hair, which somewhat match his piercing blue eyes. In terms of fashion preferences, he's not against hiding his androgynous appearance - quite the contrary actually - he pretty much advertises it, choosing a variety of clothing that some might agree are not fit for a male.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Aaron  adopts most of his personality feats from his favorite fictional character, that is Sherlock Holmes. Not to say he tried to mimic his personality. It just so happened that they had a couple of things in common.

The most 'in your face' feature is probably his habit of just saying things bluntly. While that's not always intentional (considering he still doesn't have a full understanding of human emotions), he may use it deliberately sometimes in order to create a strategic opportunity. Should his behavior prove to be overwhelming to the community, then he will feel obliged to issue an apology.

Other than that, he isn't a bad person after all. He enjoys making new friends, in spite of having difficulties in doing so, and respects anyone who engages in field work, no matter what cause they're following. He is usually very clam, but may be caught having brief panic attacks in the face of danger. He is also very smart and witty, able to skip to conclusions with very little bits of information.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Left before the doorstep of an orphanage in Sussex when he was just three months old, Aaron soon became the adopted son of a rich conglomerate. It is unknown why he was abandoned, but there are several hints that point to his mutation - blue hair, to be more precise. His adoptive father had grown so fond of him that, by the time he reached six years old, he decided to spare him from the dangers of the outside and school him at home. He was raised spotless, never once facing danger or trying any other different sensation. However, everything would change in his 14th birthday.

It was that day, that dreadful day, that a strange winged creature broke through the manor where Aaron lived and caused a turmoil, killing his foster father in the process. Unable to comprehend what happened, Aaron, instead of following his instincts and running away, actually tried to reason with the beast. It was that pure action that awakened the light inside him and gave him enough force to fend off the beast. With the manor destroyed and his foster father dead, Aaron saw it fit to run away and enjoy the world, taking his father's cane with himself.

It took two years for his act of valor to finally be noticed, when a then 16 year old Aaron, now travelling the world as a nomad and gathering knowledge on a life he was so oblivious of, was contacted by TERA.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>:  Chess, brain teasers, crosspuzzles - anything involving wit, he is up for it. He doesn't shy away from outdoor activities either, practing his Judo time to time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style</span>: Support.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: He possesses the ability to animate paper, often creating a running paper airplane which he uses to deliver messages in long distances, hence why he keeps a small notebook with himself. Once he uses this ability, he develops a sort of symbiotic relationship with his creation, able to see what IT sees and feel whatever IT feels. While the range of control he has can be expanded to cover an entire nation, natural factors such as wind, rain and other lifeforms such as seagulls can intercept his messages and force him to restart all over again.</div>"
18366,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-08 15:59:00,Mayadere,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Name: Raine Fuchs 
Age: 16 
Rank: II 
Nationality: German 
Weapon: Twin short swords 
Gear: A modified messengers bag that hooks over his left shoulder and rests on his right hip. It has specially placed sheaths for both of his weapons. But mainly it is used so he can have access to the various nicknacks he carries, along with a good amount of bandages, gauze, and suturing tools. 

Appearance: Roughly standing at 6'7 and weighing roughly 215pounds, Raine is a fairly tall, lanky teenager. His hair is relatively long, going well past his shoulders and half-way down his back, falling in uneven blackish-blue locks. He often keeps it braided though or tied back or has a thick headband on, it is rare for him to leave it unmanaged. His eyes are pale green, which match rather well with his pale skin and lightly freckled cheeks. With his skin seeming to lack much color, despite the amount of sun he gets, it is very easy to see the countless scars that dot his body. Most of them are pale pink and old, though some are just a few shades whiter than his skin itself. Most of them take the shape of claw and bite marks. There are quite a few of them, though they do not often get seen. 

As far as clothing goes, Raine is often found to be lacking in any kind of fashion sense. He doesn't like suits in the slightest, it is hard, if not impossible to get him to wear one. He is most often found in what most would call common-wear, consisting of long sleeved T-shirts, hoodies and jackets, baggy shorts, and anything else he finds comfortable. And quite often these objects of clothing do not match, either. 

Personality: Quiet with a rather rich inner-world, Raine doesn't often initiate a conversation or speak up unless it is absolutely necessary. He mostly expresses himself through his facial features and body language, which is very expressive most of the time if people look, its easy to catch him smirking or dragging his feet in irritation. He is truly a very friendly and accepting fellow of everyone, always enjoying watching those around him with great interest. It is hard, if not nearly impossible to actually anger or irritate him. He is more likely to burst into tears rather than he is to start yelling, though. 

History: Around the time Raine five, he was found by a Knight in an abandoned home while on a hunt for a Warlock. It was by a spur of bad luck that the monster had used young Raine to lure the Knight in for the kill. Or well, that was what its plan had been. But instead the Knight turned the tables on the monstrosity and managed to destroy it, at the cost of nearly loosing an arm. It was at that time in Raine's child-filled panic that caused his light to show itself, managing to not only mend the woman's arm, but also tending to his own gashes and cuts that the creature had caused when coercing him to be bait. Since it was unknown if he had family or where he was from, Raine was adopted by the Knight that had rescued him, which resulted in the start of his training. He was brought along on many trips and the learning of his abilities and more about the monsters that had left him with so many scars. 

By the time he was 12, he entered his Knighthood and was assigned to Greyridge. 

Hobbies: Much despite his quietness, Raine actually really enjoys reading out-loud to people. He likes to read in general and actually finds a lot of fun in various sports. 

Style: Support 
Abilities: Able to mend wounds by focusing light into his hands or an object. Often he imbues bandages and other things with light to gradually mend minor wounds and sometimes greater <span class=""bb-i"">(non-lifethreatening)</span> wounds. The bandages can also alleviate pain and prevent/dissolve infection. But for things like broken bones or the alike he is required to touch them, otherwise it could take days or longer to heal them. The amount of healing he is able to do is highly dependent on how much energy he has. The less energy he has, the less effective his healing is. His healing can be fairly self-exhausting, depending on how long it takes him to heal the various wounds. It isn't entirely uncommon for him to be napping frequently in odd places.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> III

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> African/Native American

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: Aeon Lance and Force Shield (Her weapon and shield have been made so that she can either wield them separately for optimal defense, or attach the shield to her lance for optimal offense)

- <span class=""bb-b"">Aeon Lance:</span> a tech invented by her family. A long, bulky lance that allows her to feed imbued bullets into it so that she can fire them for ranged firepower. Holds up to five bullets before needing to be reloaded, and can only be used as a ranged weapon when being wielded in both hands. When enemies are hit with it, it acts as a ""glue"" or ""sludge"" to whatever part of the body it hit.
 

- <span class=""bb-b"">Force Shield:</span> a tech invented by her family. A nearly transparent, violet colored medium-sized shield that is both light-weight and durable, which can sustain against heavy blows via light canisters. A single light canister can be imbued to last through three blows from a larger creature before needing to be reloaded. When a creature hits the shield physically, they may find themselves stuck to it, as if struggling against a sticky glue substance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gear:</span> She usually carries around thirty bullets and five canisters to feed her weaponry at any given time. To supplement her arsenal, she also carries a single light grenade in case of extreme emergencies. When not in battle, she carries around a thin tablet and stylus, drawing tech designs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/6Yqox8b.png"">Ayashe</a> is around 5'8'' (173cm), and weighs in at 145lbs (66kg). She has a toned body from her strict training regimen, and a no-nonsense look on her face most of the time. Her eyes are oddly violet in their coloration, a unique feature of the Kalu family. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> She is hardly the type to flash you a genuine, or even polite, smile, and will seize up each person she believes to be of importance of her before really engaging them in conversation - that isn't to say she's <span class=""bb-i"">shy</span>, oh no no. Far, FAR from it. She's brutally honest, and says crass things with no regrets. Oh, she DEFINITELY meant to say that rude thing she just said, and no, she probably wont apologize until you prove her wrong. She can take criticisms remarkably well, as long as you can show her the evidence that what you're saying is true.

She's steadfast about upholding the code of the Knights of TERA, so much so that she will not miss a cue. Ashe will defend her teammates to the end, allowing those with more flexible abilities to do what is needed to finish the job. In return, she will almost always have something to remark upon about your last battle, usually sarcastic and critical all in one little not-so-pleasant bundle.

Underneath her prickly exterior is a girl whose true friendship, or even respect, is hard to earn, not because of some jaded past, but because that's just who she is. She prefers to invent than sit idly by and waste her time, but if you can manage to get her interested in something, she may come along for the ride, just out of pure curiosity. She does find joy in small things outside of her scope of usual interest, a walk through the park, playing a game (sport or video games, doesn't matter), and finding interesting places, like a new sushi shop, or a secluded garden. 

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Ayashe, or Ashe as most people call her, was born into the very well off Kalu family, who are one of the biggest suppliers of ""Multi-Versatile Tech"" to TERA. Their ""tech"" is specialized weapons, armor, and other components (grenades/canisters/bullets/etc. that can be imbued with Light and only affect creatures of malice). Being well known for their creative and inventive designs and contributions to TERA, Ayashe as their eldest child was pretty much a shoe-in to join the Knights of TERA when she presented the capabilities to control the Light. 

She fought the notion for as long as she could, bypassing the usual sign up age of twelve. She wanted to invent new tech with her family, to become a person capable of making a true difference in the grand scheme of things - but her dreams were squashed by her overbearing parents. Ayashe was forced into becoming a Knight when she turned fourteen. 

She hated it, and would rebel on purpose just to see how far she could push the issue. During her second year, her actions caused a grievous error while on the field, and the event was quickly hushed and swept under the rug due to her family pulling strings. In return for secrecy, Ayashe was shipped off to Greyridge, away from everything she knew, so that she could start anew.

She was traumatized by what had happened, and eventually resolved to <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> take her duties lightly again. At the age of sixteen, two years after starting her Knighthood, she finally <span class=""bb-i"">became</span> a Knight in more than just name. Her superiors noticed a vast difference in her attitude on the field (though her off-field demeanor remained roughly the same, much to their chagrin), and she finally rose through the ranks. Her time of delinquency has put her behind her peers in rank, but she cares as much for status as she cares for people, which is to say <span class=""bb-b"">very</span> little.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> When she isn't honing her body, she's doing something with her hands. She loves to invent, so art has played a big role in her life and she draws, sketches, and paints avidly, usually on her tablet as she walks around. And, unsurprisingly enough, she loves to craft tech, but without the facilities to do so, she makes basic armor, such as chain mail and the like, in her spare time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style:</span> Defender

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> She dislikes using her abilities to their full extent, preferring to imbue her family's tech with her power instead of going right into combat. When push comes to shove, Ayashe will drop her tech and go into true Defender mode. Her Light acts as a ""glue"", and she wraps it around her body as a second skin, protecting her from most harm while increasing her strength to hold off against foes. If she extends it and snaps it back in, she can pull enemies to her, almost like a sticky vortex. She keeps them in place during these times so that her teammates can finish them off.</div>"
18368,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:07:00,Gamerdude369,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The ride to the office was one of Katsu's most surreal rituals. He takes this time to ground himself in the reality that he fights to protect by watching the fellow passengers of his ride. The mother who is trying to coddle her cranky child, the business man who is struggling to stay awake as he makes his way home, the loud and obnoxious teenage lovers who don't care who is looking, the student who's nose is glued to their text book desperate to pass. Watching them gives him a sense of fulfillment, the knowledge that they are blissfully unaware of hordes of creatures he had vanquished brings a slight smile to his face. Greyridge is a diverse city filled with every emotion imaginable as its denizens try to make sense of their bustling lives, but on the bus late at night it calms down enough to see past the chaos and see the joy. He received many stares from most of the passengers, the reason most likely his attire. He was formally dressed in a black suit, white shirt and blue tie. Not out of the ordinary, but in his right hand stood his shakujō, a five and a half foot tall walking stick topped with a split circle, with each half hanging three rings. Being a monk he had carried one since he was young enough to understand its meaning, and was rarely without it, despite the confusion it caused his onlookers.

After the ride it was a three block walk to get to the office. Having just returned from delivering a quarterly report at TERA's headquarters, walking the distance had more stimulation that usual. All of the sights and sounds that are very familiar to him blending together into a late night cacophony as the city refused to go to sleep. It didn't take long to arrive at a very unassuming building that stuck out like a sore thumb against the rest of the districts architecture. For starters it was a small building standing at two floors tall and not much bigger than a large home, whereas everything around it was at least six stories. A driveway lead around back to a parking lot that had room enough for six cars, part of the reason Katsu didn't care much for driving. The building itself was a boring beige color, lacked any windows and had one steel reinforced door at the front, which the second floor hung over slightly to provide shelter from the elements. It lacked any labels such as what business was inside or any hours of operation, fitting because they didn't want just anyone knocking on the door. Lastly if that wasn't enough to ward off the curious, the only way to get in was for the door to be electronically unlocked from the inside. It was hard to say if this was all to keep the monsters or the people out, but all the same, unless you are supposed to be inside, you are not getting inside.

The young man pushed the call button, and could almost hear the ringing on the inside. It took several moments, but eventually a woman’s voice flew through, “How may I help you?” The voice was familiar, and solidified the fact that he had returned home. It belonged to Jasmine Gilboa, their division’s resident financial secretary, whom had compiled several of the reports Katsu had spoken on. He first met her when she had applied for the job right after she graduated collage with her Masters in Accounting. Having not known about TERA, it being a secret organization and all, her first few days had quite a shock factor, but over the last year she settled in nicely, trying to shield her sanity by not asking too many questions. “Good evening Ms. Gilboa,” he replied, “This is Katsu Fukui, and I’ve returned.”

“Sir Fukui! Come in, It’s good to have you home again.” The door clicked and in he went. The main floor was mostly office space, several desks lined up with some facing each other. All of them were uniquely decorated with varying levels of cleanliness. The front wall held a white board with a projector pointed at it, while the back wall was a cork board filled with various documents, most of them take out restaurants. At the end of the room sat the door to one of the bathrooms and a spiral staircase that went to the basement as well as the second floor. The basement consisted of a fully functioning kitchen with all the trimming, and a fully equipped gym that was slightly over the top. The second floor was all of the living space, everyone had their own bedroom and at the far end of the hall would be the main bathroom and entertainment room, again slightly over the top. Right next to the door was Jasmine, standing at her desk. Dressed in her usual attire of business jacket and pants with her black hair tied back in a tail that ended at her upper back. She was taller than Katsu, which most people were, and most of her features were round without it being unhealthy. “How was the trip Sir?”

“Long and informative. Seems like we are going through a transitional period, many of the Lords are stepping down and new ones are being appointed. We are going to have to update our directories. Have there been any incidents during my leave?” Katsu was always straight to business, believing that the more you do now the less you have to do later. As he spoke he walked over to his desk, the cleanest of the lot by far, simply because there was nothing on it save for a few curious books and his in and out box for hard copies. Removing his coat he hung it on the rack next to his monk robes which he missed so, awaiting Jasmine’s reply. “No incidents to report Sir. Several false alarms, which I have placed on your desk.” Unbeknownst to Katsu that wasn't entirely true. In his absence Jasmine was second in command, since she was the oldest in the building. She had formed a good relationship with most of the Knights and the other secretaries, and she wasn't about to tattle on the other’s misadventures as most of them were harmless. “Good to hear. Anything else to report?” he asked as he turned his attention to his fellow Knights.</div>"

Said the Knight that had stood upon Katsu's entrance and would remain standing until given permission to be seated. Daniel, despite his commanding officer being away, had not taken opportunity to switch to casual attire. His tie today was crisp and white like copier paper, and next to a happy little cartoon pen were words scrawled in black proclaiming to the world how much the wearer enjoyed Mondays.

Daniel Dashing's desk was perhaps the only one that rivaled Katsu's for shear cleanliness, and would if it weren't constantly covered with not only his obsessively tidy work but also time-sheets, fliers, and posters for nearly every sort of club, league, and charity one could imagine. This was not the desk he was standing beside right now. Instead he was standing beside one of the secretaries desks, which it appears he's not only taken the time to organizes but shine. ""Secretary Stacie is in the hospital with a fractured femur after she took a nasty spill yesterday during roller derby practice so I've taken the liberty of passing the hat 'round, so to speak."" He said, indicating the jar over on his desk filled with money. It has a picture of a girl in a helmet and rollerskates thanking people for their donation. The picture is in crayon. ""Greyridge Central Elementary School is having a cultural day and does not, as of yet, have a speaker representing Japan and I was wondering if you were interested. Also, a Lord Tobita contacted us. He's apparently just back from a spiritual journey in Africa and was wondering if you wanted to meet for dinner at 'the usual place.'""</div>"
18370,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-10 11:47:00,Teal,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Sporting a fancy white shirt with a fancy black tie, which matched his choice of black slim fit jeans and which somewhat rivaled his beige backpack, Aaron made his way to the office, oblivious to what was happening around. He had completely immersed himself into the virtual world his phone, and possibly must trusted companion, unraveled before him. He was reading logs, logs that stored all his previous adventures and provided him with details about certain places and certain people of interest. Even though he already was a knight, he hadn't participated in a mission as of yet, so given no chance to show his true nature, he simply passed time by doing freelance work for his neighbor, mostly using his powers to rescue their pets and find lost jewels they got from thrift shops. Not to say he didn't enjoy his work - he just needed something bigger, something that could force him to display all of his potential.

After sliding his phone down on the front pocket of his pants, Aaron shook his head, mentally berating himself for his constant requests to add flavor to his dull life. Things had been peaceful quite a while, so while a monster's appearance would mean more serious work, it would also mean that people's lives would be on the line and that's something he couldn't allow himself. After all, his powers of manipulating paper only served for surveillance or deliveries. They were nothing against the frightening might of the monsters that TERA had been facing all these years, and he couldn't just punch a beast until a knockout. He could try, but it wouldn't end well.

Aaron's harmless pondering had unknowingly brought him before the TERA headquarters. He didn't recall his last trip being that short, but it was probably a trick of his overloaded mind. The buzzing sound the call button made quickly attracted Ms. Gilboa's attention, who responded with a rigid ""How may I help you?"". Even though a clandestine group, TERA didn't have a permanent facade other than <span class=""bb-i"">that building</span>. It was very weird, and fortunate, how no one even thought of sniffing around and try to uncover the purpose that old building served. Though even if someone tried, the Lords would eventually get wind of it and make attempts to peacefully get rid of whatever incriminating evidence they would possess.

Recognizing Jasmine's monotone voice, the blue-haired misfit uttered ""Aaron Hodges, reporting for duty"". There was a brief intermission, before he got a response from the lady ""I'm sorry, who?"". At this point, Aaron figured out either she was messing with him or she really had a bad memory. He assumed it was the latter, and decided to take a different approach. ""You might recognize me as the guy with the weird hair. You know, the Mountain Bluebird? That rings any bells?"". Ms. Gilboa was briefly drowned into thoughts, then immediately responded, a half-smile slightly parting her lips. ""Oh yes, please come in Mr. Hodges."", unlocking the door as she did. The presence of two other knights took Aaron faintly aback. He could recognize the younger one; Dashing, or so he was called. They had small talk in the past, but never a proper conversation. While the other one, the short man with the trimmed hair, he had never met. If it wasn't for his shakujō, the boy would have probably never known that the small guy was actually Katsu Fukui, a Rank V Knight and his superior. Upon finding that out, he was thankful that he refrained from cracking a joke about his height. That would have been extremely awkward.

Extending his hand in the friendliest manner he could while simultaneously mustering a wide grin, Aaron greeted, his british accent adding a dose of finesse. ""Greetings Mr. Fukui. I see you're back from your trip!""</div>"
18371,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-10 17:56:00,Gamerdude369,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Looking from Daniel to Jasmine, Katsu tilted his head to the side, ""'No incidents to report,' huh?"" The lady scratched the back of her head, knowing full well she should have mentioned Stacie's condition, but everyone was handling the extra work well. She was likely to be back in a few days anyway, TERA had a great health plan, as well as other methods of take care of their employee’s well being. ""Well,"" she responded, ""I figured I'd tell you when it came up. It wasn't anything bad, she just landed wrong. Very wrong."" Luckily before the conversation could go any farther she was saved by the buzzer, which she quickly tended to. 

""Either way, send her flowers on my behalf. She likes tulips if I'm not mistaken."" A secretary was as much a part of the team as any Knight, and Katsu cared for them all equally as friends and valued allies. Turning his attention back to Daniel. ""At ease Sir Dashing. Inform the school I will be happy to be there if they have no objections, and inform Lord Todita that I will be free for dinner tomorrow night."" Attending school functions was important to Katsu, since where else would he get a chance to scout new members of TERA. It's not easy for people to come to terms with a special ability, so the faster someone finds it, the easier their life will be, whether or not they decide to join the Agency. Lord Todita was another matter. The man had been a longtime family friend, working closely with Katsu's father. Their meetings often mixed business with friendship, and one way or another, he could not disappoint him.

Ms. Gilboa buzzed in Aaron their newest recruit. An interesting man to say the least, but there was something more to him that Katsu just couldn't put his finger on. His blue hair was an oddity but if you travel the world long enough you will find more than a few oddities. ""Sir Hodges,"" he greeted, accepting the man's handshake. ""I've been told there was no action in my absence, I hope that's not disappointing, you will get a chance soon enough to show us all what you have. How have you been fairing in my absence? The same goes for you too Sir Dashing, you made no mention of how you are doing this evening.""</div>"
18372,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-10 18:43:00,Gentlemanvaultboy,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Very well Sir, thank you for asking."" Daniel replies. ""Just enjoying the quiet night, trying to keep busy.""

He rather enjoyed a quiet night like this every once in a while. A quiet night was a sign that they were doing a good job, and it allowed him to attend to the seemingly endless pile of unofficial duties he managed to find for himself. At present that was filling in for Stacie, whose desk he sat back down at when given leave to. He eagerly picked up the phone and dialed the number Lord Tobita had given him. He got a machine, but left a message that Sir Fukui was eager to meet with him tomorrow night. He would call Principle Constance tomorrow morning. For now, he got right back to reading and filing strange incident reports to see whether any of them warranted serious investigation.

There was so much work the secretary had to do, but he figured that if he pulled an all-nigther Stacie would come back to a totally empty in-box. Wouldn't that be a nice surprise.</div>"

The muscles under her dark colored skin bulged from the exertion of her work out, but she kept a flat look on her face, almost as if she was just going through the motions, her mind seemingly elsewhere. Which, indeed, it was. She hadn't been out lately on a job, not that she deeply cared to go defending the citizens of Greyridge from the big bad beasties they summon up. It was more of a feeling that it seemed... quiet. Too quiet. Her family's tech wouldn't be effective if there wasn't anything to kill with it.

Ayashe pushed herself up again, this time from a one armed push up, and then stood to her full height and began to towel herself off. She wasn't incredibly tall, but she was well built, and probably spent more time in this gym in the last month than she had actually fighting the denizens of despair in her entire Knighthood. Her unruly hair was tamed into a thick braid that hung in between her shoulder blades, and her body shone with a layer of perspiration that was impossible to towel off completely.

She gave the opposite wall a scowl as her thoughts swirled. <span class=""bb-b"">“I need to go for a walk...”</span> She muttered under her breath, so low that if anybody else were in the gym, they wouldn't have heard her. Throwing her towel over her shoulders, she set up and out of the gym, taking a quick moment to grab a water from the kitchen, before continuing the rest of the way up the stairs. When her head poked out, she was greeted by too many people for her liking, including her <span class=""bb-i"">superior</span>, Katsu Fukui. It took a monumental effort for her to not groan audibly, she was hoping to just slink out without any formalities.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Oh look what a haul the cat dragged in. Hello fellows, how wonderful it is that you're keeping up the good fight – no really, amazing work there, DeeDee.”</span> Her voice came out as sardonic as she could afford to make it as she gave Daniel two thumbs up. Her gaze went around the room to take in the rest of the people there as she casually held on to the ends of her towel still draped over her shoulders. <span class=""bb-b"">“Mister Monk Man,”</span> She said with a semi-respectful nod to Katsu. <span class=""bb-b"">“Blueberry Boy,”</span> She gave Aaron an exaggerated salute, obviously meant to be mocking.

While taking, she managed to slink to the door leading outside. <span class=""bb-b"">“Unless a gremlin is munching on the brains of toddlers, I'm going for a walk. That cool with you?”</span> She looked to Katsu for affirmation as her hand gripped the door handle, which seemed like she wanted to claw at to get out, all the while managing one of her famous deadpan stares.</div>"

He preferred to listen than to talk in most situations. His face was hidden behind a heavy tome, simply titled 'Advanced Organic Chemistry Unit 5'. There had been a bit of lull recently, a change of pace from normal. He took these lulls in his stride, they gave him time to indulge his other interests, well at least when he wasn't engaged in non hunting work. This was city life, infinite information at his finger tips, it was impossible to get bored. 

The boss returned though and with him a lot of noise. It was a tempo change but not unwelcome. He didn't currently have anything to report, the uneventfulness was leading to a feeling of unproductiveness but that didn't mean there wasn't anything to hear. There was one report of disappearances of young women, but he had discovered that that was human activity, not even warlocks at that. It was bad but it wasn't really the Knights' remit and he had already informed the police. The pleasantries of the other knights' were suddenly interrupted by Ayashe in her traditional style. However she passed over him when making her round of insults. 

""Ayashe, you're making me feel excluded, what did I do wrong?"" Alexandr joked through his thick Russian accent. ""Are you sure you don't need someone to walk with you in case you run in a child chomping demon?""</div>"

Raine's loud, deep, and hopeful voice rang out as he exited the stairwell. He ducked his head quickly to avoid clocking his face into the door frame, though it didn't stop his glasses from catching and being knocked off of the top of his head. Though thankfully they didn't go far, having gotten tangled in his mass of blueish-black hair that was all bundled up at the nape of his neck with a few uneven strands being held in place with bobby pins. Ignoring his glasses for the moment though, his attention quickly turns towards Ayashe, who happened to be closest to the door. 

His face, much despite the dark circles that could be found under his pale green eyes, was rather lively and filled with hope at the prospect of icecream. He looked like he had just rolled out of bed, and in truth, it was quite possible. A large, red hooded sweater, his favorite pair of jeans that were missing the entire right pant-leg under his knee, the bright neon green socks... Things he often wore when he was relaxing, or napping. But seeing as his hair wasn't trying to stick up in fifty different places and there were no strange drool marks on his chin, the first suggestion was the case. 

""...If you are going out, please?"" He asked, his voice now much softer than it had been just a few moments ago. It wasn't often he dared ask anything of others, be it because of his usual silence or the fact that he'd rather do it himself. But Raine knew his limits well. And running about while tired was never a wise choice for him, unless he wanted to end up napping on a bench somewhere. Again.</div>"

Daniel says, looking up from his work. ""You remember, Sir Fuchs? Near the library? Penguin in the window?"" He suddenly turns his attention to the whole room. ""Lovely place, family owned for three generations. <span class=""bb-i"">Literally</span> the greatest ice cream I have ever had. Dame Kalu, if you're going out walking anyway I highly recommend their frozen yogurt as a post work-out treat.""</div>"

She didn't crave attention, she didn't want everyone's approval, she just wanted them not to be in her way. Only she asked such with all the grace of a tempest. There is something to be respected of brutal honesty, the resolve to be your own person and march forward, Katsu admired this, but he knew there was room for improvement. ""Dame Kalu,"" he greeted with a slight bow, keeping his eyes locked to her's. ""I plan to hold the briefing of my visit to headquarters in the morning. As such the evening is free, you may do as you desire.""

Breaking the gaze he pulled out his chair and sat down. ""I have noted you're concern for little children and your disdain for tiny monsters, should either of these come into play I will make my attempts to contact you."" With that he set off to the what little work he had to for the night. HQ had given him a flash drive with various documents for him to look over and get back to them on. As he connected it to a rather small laptop he produced from his desk he listened to everyone around him and was content.</div>"

Ayashe was sure that he had just been a pile of books on her first sweep of the room. She was positive that all he ever did was read, read, read, and wondered how his eyes didn't fall out. <span class=""bb-b"">“Oh, I'm sorry Romanov, what did you say? Hard to understand you when you're talking behind the pages of your book. How heavy is that thing, really?”</span> She ignored his offer of coming with her altogether, swiveling her head around when the loud and deep voice of Raine came from the stairwell. 

She managed to stifle <span class=""bb-i"">most</span> of her sigh this time. Something about Raine made her want to just get him the damn ice cream. Was it the way he asked? The fact that he was huge, lanky, and positively clumsy, in her opinion? Or was it the fact that he had healed her bruises and scrapes on more than one occasion? Just maybe it was because if he went out to get it, he may not come back until he had had a pleasant time napping in the middle of the street like road kill? She was <span class=""bb-i"">sure</span> that had occurred, at least one time in the ridiculously tall fellow's life. <span class=""bb-b"">“Fine, whatever. What flavor, Pipsqueak? 'Cus if you don't tell me, I'm getting you one of those stupid tri-flavor vanilla, strawberry, chocolate things, and it'll probably be gross.”</span> 

She placed a hand on her hip before turning her attentions to Daniel, or DeeDee as she so appropriately named him. She couldn't help it, when she saw him, she saw him in a pink tutu pressing all the buttons in a figurative laboratory. His very alliterate name also helped. Daniel Dashing. C'mon, it'd be asking her to pass up gold if she didn't call him that. Or even Double D. She gave a smirk at the thought. That would be a nice nickname, for a change of pace. <span class=""bb-b"">“Doesn't surprise me that you know of <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> everything, Double D.”</span> She said, putting the same emphasis on the word “literally” as Daniel had used. She could never get used to the way people called her “Dame”, especially a person so much younger than herself. She put the location of the ice cream shop in the back of her mind, she'd just go there. It was simple.

When Katsu finished talking to her, she retrieved her tablet from a small bag hanging from one of her shoulders and gave it a cheerful little wiggle in his direction. <span class=""bb-b"">“You can contact me through my handy-dandy tablet if a horde of zombie babies come, Mister M.”</span> She hoped that something interesting happened at Headquarters, because life around here had been boring lately. Her designs had even lost their usual flair in the last week or two, but she refused to admit that even a fraction of her creativity came from battling monsters.</div>"

He had read Katsu's file, since after all he was his leader and potential friend, but files usually stored superficial information like biography, age, gender, et cetera, information which wouldn't be of much help. He needed to know his colleagues deeper, and thankfully with the right mindset, something as customary as shaking hands could tell a lot about the other person. For example, in that case, within the first seconds of the grip, Aaron could already see that Mr. Fukui, in spite of his short height, had a very roughened palm. That was obviously courtesy of his previous adventures, taking into account he was Rank V, and Rank V always translated to 'highly experienced'. He had slain a great deal of monsters before, and the fact that he didn't throw in a quip about Hodge's blue hair signified he was already accommodated to the bizarre and possessed a great level of maturity, which he could imagine was what got him promoted in the first place. Aaron was well aware that there had to be more to him than that, but for the time being, he was satisfied. 

The blue haired teenager opened his mouth in an attempt to answer Mr. Fukui's question, but he was interrupted by the emergence of another Knight, female; of african descent, slightly shorter than him and possessing great physical feats. At this point, he figured out she must be Ayashe Kalu. He had thrown a quick glance at her file during his break, but there was no mention of her tendency to tag her peers with nicknames. Either way, she seemed to be the agency's diva. She stole everyone's sights, and consequently, hearts, with her elegant and confident waltz, an indicator that she was the heir to a wealthy and influential family.  Her appearance provoked two other Knights which Aaron hadn't met before to reveal themselves - a Russian muscle and a German, manchild version of Stephen Merchant. At this rate, the British Knight realized he had a lot of catching up to do.

Leaving Mr. Fukui's question unanswered for the time being, the boy slightly leaned towards Jasmine, using the confusion to throw in an inaudible buzz. ""Psst, Jazz!""
The secretary immediately shifted his sight at the boy, visibly disorientated by the way he referred to her.

""What are the chances that you've gotten hold of my cane?"", the boy proceeded with a query, his tone now slightly higher than before. Ms. Gilboa's stutter showed she was still muddled, but managed to land an answer anyway.

""Oh, oh..yeah. It's in your desk. I polished it a little bit, I hope you don't mind."" 
""I don't"", Aaron responded yet again, sneaking a passing smirk at her before speeding towards his desk, away from the crowd. 

The way his backpack bounced visibly annoyed him, so as soon as he made his way to the desk, he slammed it down on the seat. Quickly pulling the zipper down, he opened his backpack and pulled a couple of books. Needless to say, his desk was organized to an extent. The right side was infested by different board games; chess, jigsaw, monopoly, brain teasers and books with logic as their main theme. The right side was filled with Conan Doyle novels and the latest season of BBC Sherlock, while the middle space was reserved for stuff which he thought would benefit him in evolving as a Knight. In there, he stacked a couple of books about mythology, ranging from the Mediterranean to Scandinavia and beyond. It was thanks to those books that he finally realized that the creature that attacked him that dreaded night was, in fact, a Griffin as opposed a Fury, which was his initial assumption. It was worth stating that the monsters looked extremely different from how they were portrayed in ancient literature, which justified the boy's mistake.

After neatly stacking his books up, he grabbed his cane and slowly folded it, placing it at a side slot in his backpack.</div>"

""Oh, by the way."" Daniel speaks up, and after a few quick keystrokes the tablet in her bag beeps. ""So long as you're going that way, there's apparently been some sort of spooky poster showing up around the area. Shop owners keep tearing them down, they keep going up without anyone seeing how or why. Most likely just viral marketing for some Japaneses style horror movie, but there isn't any harm in checking. I've sent the report to your tablet.""</div>"

""Chocolate. Please."" His voice was a great deal quieter this time he spoke, just barely loud enough to hear. Though it was clear with how he was grinning, from nearly ear to ear, that he would be fine with whatever she brought back for him. And in truth, be it chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, a mix of the three, or anything else, he wouldn't complain about it. In fact, he would still be just as happy with raspberry or pecan... Raine was not a very picky fellow when it came to food, especially sweets that someone else was getting him.

Slowly Raine would duck his head once again, though this time he lifts both of his hands up to carefully start patting his head, probably feeling around for his glasses. Which, it did not take him long to locate the spectacles tangled in his hair on the back left-side of his head. He would then quickly start to attempt to untangle them while finding himself a seat, a corner opposite of the Russian. Not that he had any problems with the fellow, but if he was going to have his arms up like this for a short while, it was better to do it out of range form elbowing anyone in the face or elsewhere while he did. Even as he sat down in the somewhat confining chair, he only managed to mildly untangle the glasses.

After a minute or two though, he finally managed to pull them from the mess of his hair, save a few strands that had decided the glasses were a better place to reside. He wasn't paying much attention to the others around, as usual, much preferring to preoccupy himself with removing the several stands of hair that had gotten tangled on the glasses and ripped out. As most knew, he wasn't much of a talker and didn't really bother with people he didn't know unless they were hurt.</div>"

None could mistake the ringing of Jasmine's phone, which was the main inline for phone calls. As would be expected, their phone was not listed anywhere that anyone could just find it, and randomly calling it was right next to never occurring. Katsu didn't lift his head, he went along his business of sorting through the files on his computer, but he had feeling that his first night back would not be an uneventful one.

Answering the phone Jasmine asked the simple question of ""Name and Business,"" which was official protocol. The voice on the other end was the gravelly voice of a man, who identified himself as Lucius Donnell, Commissioner of the Greyridge Police Department. Although not part of the Agency, he was a designated informant, an individual who has access to information involving the public's activities. Anytime an informant thinks that something is just on the other side or normal, they give TERA a call, and the hunt begins. ""Sir Fukui, its Commissioner Donnell, would you like to take the call or should I?""

""Transfer it over please."" The secretary did just that and as soon as the light on his phone lit up he grabbed the receiver. ""Sir Fukui speaking, state your business.""

""Katsu, I didn't think you would be back for another day or two. The trip was enjoyable I hope."" Rather then get to the point, Lucius opted for small talk. This was nothing new, as any time he called he did his best to avoid talking about the incident, always hoping that he was dreaming or that things were simpler and more logical than they were.

For Katsu this was a sure fire sign that something was indeed up, and that there would be work tonight. ""Commissioner Donnell, as I have told you previously, time is an expendable resource that one can not get back. State the incident.""

""I... of course. I have reports of an accident on a bridge, an overturned bus. I want to say that no one got hurt, but all of the passengers are missing, all that is left is the driver.""

""You are going to have to be more specific Sir. Tell me about the bus.""

""Its on its side. Side door is against the ground, none of the windows are broken, back door is ripped clean off.""

""Back door?"" Most buses had only one door on the front right side, rarely they would have two, and even rarer are back doors, unless it was a certain kind of bus. ""Its an overturned school bus?""

The commissioner didn't answer right away, he fought to get the words past the knot in his stomach. ""Yes. Kids and chaperons are gone. Driver said he couldn't have been down for more then a minute. Just get over there, I don't like this one.""

""We are moving out. I'll radio you when we arrive."" After hanging up the phone Katsu stood up and started to remove his buttoned shirt and pants in order to dawn his robes. Though business dress signified status, it wasn't necessarily battle efficient, his worn and torn robes on the other hand, felt like a second set of skin to him, having been through many bad situations. ""Grab you're gear everyone. Dame Kalu, seems like you have your kids in distress. Over turned school bus here in the central district. Ms. Gilboa, seeing as we are short handed, you will have to take care of the travel arrangements, please bring the van around.""</div>"
18383,Knights of TERA (Modern Fantasy Monster Slaying),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76218-knights-of-tera-modern-fantasy-monster-slaying,['Casual'],2015-02-17 10:15:00,cuttlebones,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Hearing about the incident Alexandr's brain went into autopilot mode. He was already wearing his usual fighting gear, so he retrieved his heavy limbed bow. He fluidly slid the bow into a sheathe which he wore clipped behind his waist. The bow was extremely precious to Alexandr, and he knew every inch of its structure, without it he'd be lost. His hands then rapidly picked and filled a light quiver with a variety of arrows, some where broad headed with bone points, others where thin and metallic, like huge fletched needles. 

As he was doing this he thought about the situation and Kalu's almost supernatural prediction. Children were a tricky one, they were terrible hostages and far less predictable than adults due to their limited understanding of most situations, it was an unfortunate coincidence that they were such a common monster target. This train of thought lead Alexandr to run a quick scan of his knowledge of monsters, trying to find a modus operandi match. It could be a Lamashtu, which would be bad news, as they had a tendency to eat children, but lion-donkey headed eagle demons were unusual even for TERA. The torn off back door pointed more towards an ogre to him, although the child loss and water proximity meant that there was a possibility of kelpies or even kappas.

""If we were making bets, than I would put my money on an ogre."" Intoned Alexandr through the thick accent, as he strode towards the door. ""In which case we're looking at no hostage taking, probably high casualties already, fun, fun, fun.""</div>"

He touched the bundle on his belt, pulling out the draw string to reveal all his little colored capsules. He swept over them with his eyes, double checking to make sure that each one was in its correct place, before letting go and allowing the whole thing to snap back into his belt.

This was his entire preparation ritual. Unless Daniel was asleep he was prepared, and even then he would have his weapons on hand. Always be prepared to fight, this is what his mentor had drilled into him.

""It is unbecoming of a knight to gamble."" He said sharply, pointedly ignoring the rest of what the Russian had suggested. He also makes his way to the door. ""Or to make assumptions without knowing all the information. If it was at least daytime we could rule things out, but...""

He trails off, and stops short of the door before turning around. ""What sort of school bus runs at this hour?"" he says, perplexed, to the room.</div>"

Under normal circumstances she would stay in the office and handle communications and support, she liked it that way. It came with a lot less trouble, a lot less danger, and far beyond fewer sleepless nights. ""All the same Sir Fukui, I'd rather stay here. Why don't you drive?""

While tying his sash Katsu gave her a no nonsense glare. ""Not possible. I do not have any experience driving and we need a man on the scene to inform the recovery team. Get the keys Ms. Gilboa.""

""Please sir..."" She wanted to plead, she wanted to say no. If these were just adults, she wouldn't be putting up as much of a fuss. But these were kids, people not old enough to fully defend themselves. This wasn't the job she signed up for, yet she knew that she could make a difference. All Katsu had to say was ""Tick Tock,"" and she grabbed her keys and her coat.

She turned the door handle, ready to go but Daniel's question kicked her brain into gear. ""School bus... oh."" It was late at night, well past after school care, and sport events. Though she didn't have kids herself, she did have a niece whom she loved dearly who recently complained about not being able to go with the big kids on their overnight trip. ""It’s a field trip. The fifth graders went on an overnight trip to the next city. There would have been more than one bus sir...""

""He only said one,"" he quickly interjected. ""The others should be fine, otherwise the Commissioner would have mentioned them. One bus Ms. Gilboa."" This made her feel the slightest bit better, and gave her the boost she needed to work past the fear. She left and ran around the building to the too small parking lot. The van was nothing special, by any stretch of the imagination. A plain white van with ordinary plates, seating for eight. The office had two such vehicles, Jasmine just jumped into the closest one, started it up and moved it out into the street front of the building.</div>"

It should come at no surprise at this point that Daniel was the first out the door, despite the fact that Ayashe had already been at the door. He looked in at her with kind little eyes. ""If we were walking into a abattoir Sir Fukui would have told us, to prepare us. But he didn't, so that means the children are missing. Missing. Not dead.

Judging by Mr. Fukui's monotone voice which left barely distinguishable traces of hurry and distress somewhere along the way, plus considering that he was referring to the person in the other end of the line as 'Commissioner Donnell', whatever was happening it was business related. And business required equipment.

Snatching his bag from the seat and throwing it down his back, but not before pulling his notebook out, the blue haired boy made several confident steps towards the main hall, just in time to catch Mr. Fukui's remark about endangered children which was directed at Ayashe. So that's what it was; an overturned school bus. Licking his index finger, he began flipping the pages of his notebook until he reached to the middle, ripping a page from it then closing the book, slipping it under his left arm. ""Do you want me to send recon before you guys intervene?"", he uttered in his slight British accent, his sight drifting at everyone in the room then stopping at Katsu, who was prepping himself up to enter the fray. Soon after, Ms. Gilboa scampered out of the room, Daniel following shortly after.</div>"

Long ago these nightmares were real, they demanded tribute, terrorized villages, they did all they could to keep us huddled, alone and afraid, getting us to fear the darkness. Now these monster are gone, no longer do they dwell in our realm for humanity drove them out, marching through their lands and liberating it in the name of progress. Leading the assault were people know by various names, people who were revered as heroes for their abilities to defy the odds, to perform miracles. These people were not special, everyone is born with the Light inside them, but few have the mettle to use it.

All around the world there were such individuals, and when the world was finally small enough, they united under the name TERA and swore oaths to do all they can to keep the monsters out. Regrettably, the enemy enters the world through the hearts of man, being born from their despair and malice toward one another. It is the job of the Knights of TERA to stand vigilant, and protect the world when something crosses the boundary into our realm. The city of Greyridge holds one such unit of young Knights, this is the journey of their trials and tribulations as they learn what it truly means to be a hero.

Rules:
1. Standard rules, keep it fair, keep it clean, keep it civil, keep it active, keep it exiting, keep it tame. I'm not a hard ass but I do like to keep the standard of community.

2. Everyone is part of the story. I'm GM sure, but you guys can craft the world and the story any way you see fit. NPCs, locations, encounters, I encourage character driven stories.

3. If there are any problems, ideas, or you just need someone to talk to, feel free to PM me. I'm here to have fun and you should too.

4. <span class=""bb-s"">Post your CS in OCC before you post it in Characters. This will likely be open for a while but if that changes I will change it here in the rules.</span> Holding off new applicants until further notice, (save for the six people who have shown interest.)

Striker - An individual who imbeds their weapon with their inner light, allowing them to pull off daring feats of acrobatics and speed, allowing them to end most threats quickly.
Defender - They wield their light like a shield, stretching it past their body and mind giving them increased physical prowess, allowing them to shake off even the most deadly of blows.
Support - The most diverse form of fighting. These individuals wield their power as an energy, sending it far beyond their reach in order to perform what has been labeled throughout history as miracles. Some can use it to heal the wounds of an ally, others can set up barriers warding off the monsters. Each Support's abilities appear to be deeply rooted in their beliefs.</div></div>

Rank is essentially a way of saying how long you have been a Knight. The higher the rank the more experienced you are. I just thought it would be an easier way to show how long everyone has been doing their job, and who might be stronger then who though that is not the main reason for it. I'll make it a point to award promotions IC, give the characters a reason to celebrate once in a while.</div>"

My idea was that mt characters weapon was magic grow capsules. You know, these things:

<img src=""http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61EbP85HHhL.jpg""/>

Little capsules with sponges inside that dissolve in water and then the sponge things sucks up the water and get bigger and they're pretty much the coolest thing in the world when you're nine years old? Well take those, infuses them with light before dunking them, the have the now huge holy sponge creature fight for you. Mechanically it feels strikerish, but doesn't really seem like it's in the spirit of the class.

Also, want to know if this is viable.</div>"

Ya know the more I thought about it the more I found it to be appropriate. In this world innocence and child like activities are what fuel the Light and take it to the next level, so I say roll with it. I see the power as both striker and defender like, since lets say the sponge of a lion would be striker-ish and the sponge of a bear would be defender-ish. So I would say it falls into Support because of its diversity. Just throw some type of rules in there like you can only animate one at a time or pick four ""favorite sponges"" and those are the only ones you use. Other than that, green light.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 14
<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: I
<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: American
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: Magic Grow Capsules
<span class=""bb-b"">Gear</span>: Pouch on belt. When lid is pulled it acts sort of like a tape measure, onto which various capsules are stored.
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Short, with short blond curly hair. Often dressed very professionally with a suit and tie, a vest, clean shoes, because such a look is as close as one can get to the dignity of a knight without actually donning armor. Despite this, his tie is always some sort of ludicrous novelty design. He has a pair of long thin scars running down the left side of his face that <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> miss his left eye.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Daniel is a small friendly guy. He tries very much to live up to the platonic ideals of knighthood, striving to be polite, generous, honorable, and chivalrous in all situation. When people speak to him, he listens. Really listens, and remembers, because you are important. He's kind of intense, and it tends to put people off. It's like he's laser focused all the time, on everything. He is, without question, a workaholic.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Daniel has wanted to be a Knight ever since he was five, when his entire life was stolen away by the machinations of a spiteful neighbor. The man put a monster under young Daniels bed, and when his parents went to check...well, he's blocked most of the memories of that night from his mind. He does remember one thing, though. The Knight.

A shining figure in the dark of his room, holding him, monster dead on the floor. For Daniel this was akin to a religious experience. For all intents and purposes adopted by his savior, who was themselves barely a teenager at the time, Daniel was brought up in Knighthood. His foster parent drilled in the philosophy of the light, the merits of behaving virtuously, and the benefits of always being prepared. He took these lessons to heart and entered the Knighthood himself at twelve, working with the fervor of a fanatic.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>: Daniel is always trying to organize something. A baseball league, a ball, a charity, a tournament. If there is a committee he wants on it. If there is a meeting he wants to be a part of it. He likes being around people, and on the off chance that there is nothing for him to work on in his downtime you'd be able to find him in a park, or a restaurant, or a club, somewhere where he will be surrounded by them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style</span>: Variable. Because of the way he uses his light he prefers to hold back and watch for a hole that needs filling.
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Daniel infuses light into Magic Grow Capsules, bringing them to life as servants. They become bigger and stronger, taking on the characteristics of the thing they were made in the image of while still remaining spongy and malleable. Bringing these creatures of light to life takes a lot out of Daniel, realistically meaning that he's only able to do it once every day. In addition, they have a rather short lifespan of six hours, whereupon they dissolve.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: Aaron Hodges

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank</span>: I

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: England

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: <a href=""http://www.spirithalloween.com/images/spirit/products/interactivezoom/processed/07094840.interactive.a.jpg"">A cane</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gear</span>: A smart phone, which he uses to store profiles and skip to deductions based on intel gathered in field work, and a small notebook with a pen which he uses to write messages.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Standing at 5'9, with a weight of around 130 pounds, <a href=""http://th02.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2014/034/7/2/waiting_by_tori001-d74x4p6.png"">Aaron</a> is a rather slim fella. Mistaking his slim build for a physical shortcoming, however, is one many are bound to make. While not guaranteed to emerge as a winner, he is able to hold his own against a man twice his age and body size, without
employing the Light. His most unique traits are his natural blue hair, which somewhat match his piercing blue eyes. In terms of fashion preferences, he's not against hiding his androgynous appearance - quite the contrary actually - he pretty much advertises it, choosing a variety of clothing that some might agree are not fit for a male.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Aaron  adopts most of his personality feats from his favorite fictional character, that is Sherlock Holmes. Not to say he tried to mimic his personality. It just so happened that they had a couple of things in common.

The most 'in your face' feature is probably his habit of just saying things bluntly. While that's not always intentional (considering he still doesn't have a full understanding of human emotions), he may use it deliberately sometimes in order to create a strategic opportunity. Should his behavior prove to be overwhelming to the community, then he will feel obliged to issue an apology.

Other than that, he isn't a bad person after all. He enjoys making new friends, in spite of having difficulties in doing so, and respects anyone who engages in field work, no matter what cause they're following. He is usually very clam, but may be caught having brief panic attacks in the face of danger. He is also very smart and witty, able to skip to conclusions with very little bits of information.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Left before the doorstep of an orphanage in Sussex when he was just three months old, Aaron soon became the adopted son of a rich conglomerate. It is unknown why he was abandoned, but there are several hints that point to his mutation - blue hair, to be more precise. His adoptive father had grown so fond of him that, by the time he reached six years old, he decided to spare him from the dangers of the outside and school him at home. He was raised spotless, never once facing danger or trying any other different sensation. However, everything would change in his 14th birthday.

It was that day, that dreadful day, that a strange winged creature broke through the manor where Aaron lived and caused a turmoil, killing his foster father in the process. Unable to comprehend what happened, Aaron, instead of following his instincts and running away, actually tried to reason with the beast. It was that pure action that awakened the light inside him and gave him enough force to fend off the beast. With the manor destroyed and his foster father dead, Aaron saw it fit to run away and enjoy the world, taking his father's cane with himself.

It took two years for his act of valor to finally be noticed, when a then 16 year old Aaron, now travelling the world as a nomad and gathering knowledge on a life he was so oblivious of, was contacted by TERA.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies</span>:  Chess, brain teasers, crosspuzzles - anything involving wit, he is up for it. He doesn't shy away from outdoor activities either, practing his Judo time to time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style</span>: Support.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: He possesses the ability to animate paper, often creating a running paper airplane which he uses to deliver messages in long distances, hence why he keeps a small notebook with himself. Once he uses this ability, he develops a sort of symbiotic relationship with his creation, able to see what IT sees and feel whatever IT feels. While the range of control he has can be expanded to cover an entire nation, natural factors such as wind, rain and other lifeforms such as seagulls can intercept his messages and force him to restart all over again.</div>"

Age: 16 
Rank: II 
Nationality: German
Weapon: Twin short swords
Gear: A modified messengers bag that hooks over his left shoulder and rests on his right hip. It has specially placed sheaths for both of his weapons. But mainly it is used so he can have access to the various nicknacks he carries, along with a good amount of bandages, gauze, and suturing tools. 

Appearance: Roughly standing at 6'7 and weighing roughly 215pounds, Raine is a fairly tall, lanky teenager. His hair is relatively long, going well past his shoulders and half-way down his back, falling in uneven blackish-blue locks. He often keeps it braided though or tied back or has a thick headband on, it is rare for him to leave it unmanaged. His eyes are pale green, which match rather well with his pale skin and lightly freckled cheeks. With his skin seeming to lack much color, despite the amount of sun he gets, it is very easy to see the countless scars that dot his body. Most of them are pale pink and old, though some are just a few shades whiter than his skin itself. Most of them take the shape of claw and bite marks. There are quite a few of them, though they do not often get seen.

As far as clothing goes, Raine is often found to be lacking in any kind of fashion sense. He doesn't like suits in the slightest, it is hard, if not impossible to get him to wear one. He is most often found in what most would call common-wear, consisting of long sleeved T-shirts, hoodies and jackets, baggy shorts, and anything else he finds comfortable. And quite often these objects of clothing do not match, either. 

Personality: Quiet with a rather rich inner-world, Raine doesn't often initiate a conversation or speak up unless it is absolutely necessary. He mostly expresses himself through his facial features and body language, which is very expressive most of the time if people look, its easy to catch him smirking or dragging his feet in irritation. He is truly a very friendly and accepting fellow of everyone, always enjoying watching those around him with great interest. It is hard, if not nearly impossible to actually anger or irritate him. He is more likely to burst into tears rather than he is to start yelling, though. 

History: Around the time Raine five, he was found by a Knight in an abandoned home while on a hunt for a Warlock. It was by a spur of bad luck that the monster had used young Raine to lure the Knight in for the kill. Or well, that was what its plan had been. But instead the Knight turned the tables on the monstrosity and managed to destroy it, at the cost of nearly loosing an arm. It was at that time in Raine's child-filled panic that caused his light to show itself, managing to not only mend the woman's arm, but also tending to his own gashes and cuts that the creature had caused when coercing him to be bait.

Since it was unknown if he had family or where he was from, Raine was adopted by the Knight that had rescued him, which resulted in the start of his training. He was brought along on many trips and the learning of his abilities and more about the monsters that had left him with so many scars. 

By the time he was 12, he entered his Knighthood and was assigned to Greyridge. 

Hobbies: Much despite his quietness, Raine actually really enjoys reading out-loud to people. He likes to read in general and actually finds a lot of fun in various sports. 

Style: Support 
Abilities: Able to mend wounds by focusing light into his hands or an object. Often he imbues bandages and other things with light to gradually mend minor wounds and sometimes greater <span class=""bb-i"">(non-lifethreatening)</span> wounds. The bandages can also alleviate pain and prevent/dissolve infection. But for things like broken bones or the alike he is required to touch them, otherwise it could take days or longer to heal them. The amount of healing he is able to do is highly dependent on how much energy he has. The less energy he has, the less effective his healing is. His healing can be fairly self-exhausting, depending on how long it takes him to heal the various wounds. It isn't entirely uncommon for him to be napping frequently in odd places.</div></div>

Beurgh. I had a different character sheet, but I forgot to save the document that I was writing with and ended up destroying it. This is the basic, solid idea of it, but I am going to edit the history a bit later after work. Probably.</div>"

That won't be necessary. You can throw a couple of vague hints now and then, but let me piece out the big picture. What is the point of being the group's brain if I don't get to use it?

E: Speaking of questions, I have some I want to make. For starters, what kind of tone do you want this RP to have? Is it going to be like an overall light tone with occasional dark moments? And, can a person be stripped off from the light? Like, can the light disappear in that person to the point where he wouldn't be able to use any powers? Is there gonna be a main villain? </div>"

Looks good. Accepted. I like the backstory, I will need to discuss a few things about it at some point, just so I have them for later.


@Teal
As you wish, but the door is open. And to answer you're questions:

What kind of tone do you want this RP to have? Is it going to be like an overall light tone with occasional dark moments?

Pretty much that. The most serious it will get is on the occasional high tension hunt, or where the plot develops. Most of the time it will just be about a bunch of kids doing what kids do. In the down time everyone will be free to do as they wish, I only ask that we try to develop our characters and the world. So everyone will be able to make locations and NPCs which I will do my best to involve them in the plot as the story goes on.

Can a person be stripped off from the light? Like, can the light disappear in that person to the point where he wouldn't be able to use any powers?

As far as everyone is concerned there have not been any proven cases of someone ""loosing"" the Light within themselves. If a Knight manages to live long enough, they will find it harder and harder to ""use"" the Light. The explanation for this is that as you get older the world looses some of its shine, and in turn you loose some of your own. When you are a kid, everything is new and exiting, the world serves to feed you're imagination and every day is an adventure. But when you get older, you don't get that as much. The Light feeds on that feeling of childishness and builds up a surplus of stored of energy, which we use to fuel our talents. Even when you are older you can still use the power, but you don't recharge at the same rate, so you are not as effective as a Knight any more. It is known that people have gone out in ""a blaze of glory,"" using the last of their Light, extinguishing it and ripping victory from the jaws of defeat at the cost of their life. This is still a fogy concept as testing it would mean having someone die, and TERA is not willing to risk it.

Is there gonna be a main villain?

It depends on how long this goes on for. (hopefully a while) Will there be a guy we will curse as they fly off into the night, yes. Will this be a being we can't defeat with brute strength alone, likely. Do I have an master mind or a king monster in mind, yes, but I don't plan to tip that hand for a while. I can say that we should fight more than just mindless creatures. 

Was all of that good?


@All
Some time monday I should have the first IC post up. Bear with me as the first hunt will be a little stiff while I get a feel for your characters. In my experience the first event is always the hardest as the characters need to fall in line and everyone needs to establish a relationship of sorts, but after that it will open up and should hopefully flow more natural.</div>"

Good question. It is something I plan to do through one fashion or another. The short answer is yes. The long answer is that as far as anyone knows, you’re light doesn't get stronger, you just get more efficient at using it. Progression will be a natural thing and everyone will be promoted at some point, but there may also be an event that sends you to the next level, which in this world would be an unprecedented occurrence. So short answer again, yes.

@AiyvaGuard
If you are still around there is still a spot open for you. Even if we start the hunt you can just pop in.

Ok, so the first post is a thing. Much longer than I intended, but I wanted to paint a picture of what is going on now.

The Defender description was a little hard to try to fit into.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Ayashe Kalu - Defender"" type=""button"">Ayashe Kalu - Defender [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ayashe ""Ashe"" Kalu

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19

<span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> III

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> African/Native American

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>: Aeon Lance and Force Shield (Her weapon and shield have been made so that she can either wield them separately for optimal defense, or attach the shield to her lance for optimal offense)

- <span class=""bb-b"">Aeon Lance:</span> a tech invented by her family. A long, bulky lance that allows her to feed imbued bullets into it so that she can fire them for ranged firepower. Holds up to five bullets before needing to be reloaded, and can only be used as a ranged weapon when being wielded in both hands. When enemies are hit with it, it acts as a ""glue"" or ""sludge"" to whatever part of the body it hit.
 

- <span class=""bb-b"">Force Shield:</span> a tech invented by her family. A nearly transparent, violet colored medium-sized shield that is both light-weight and durable, which can sustain against heavy blows via light canisters. A single light canister can be imbued to last through three blows from a larger creature before needing to be reloaded. When a creature hits the shield physically, they may find themselves stuck to it, as if struggling against a sticky glue substance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gear:</span> She usually carries around thirty bullets and five canisters to feed her weaponry at any given time. To supplement her arsenal, she also carries a single light grenade in case of extreme emergencies. When not in battle, she carries around a thin tablet and stylus, drawing tech designs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/6Yqox8b.png"">Ayashe</a> is around 5'8'' (173cm), and weighs in at 145lbs (66kg). She has a toned body from her strict training regimen, and a no-nonsense look on her face most of the time. Her eyes are oddly violet in their coloration, a unique feature of the Kalu family. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> She is hardly the type to flash you a genuine, or even polite, smile, and will seize up each person she believes to be of importance of her before really engaging them in conversation - that isn't to say she's <span class=""bb-i"">shy</span>, oh no no. Far, FAR from it. She's brutally honest, and says crass things with no regrets. Oh, she DEFINITELY meant to say that rude thing she just said, and no, she probably wont apologize until you prove her wrong. She can take criticisms remarkably well, as long as you can show her the evidence that what you're saying is true.

She's steadfast about upholding the code of the Knights of TERA, so much so that she will not miss a cue. Ashe will defend her teammates to the end, allowing those with more flexible abilities to do what is needed to finish the job. In return, she will almost always have something to remark upon about your last battle, usually sarcastic and critical all in one little not-so-pleasant bundle.

Underneath her prickly exterior is a girl whose true friendship, or even respect, is hard to earn, not because of some jaded past, but because that's just who she is. She prefers to invent than sit idly by and waste her time, but if you can manage to get her interested in something, she may come along for the ride, just out of pure curiosity. She does find joy in small things outside of her scope of usual interest, a walk through the park, playing a game (sport or video games, doesn't matter), and finding interesting places, like a new sushi shop, or a secluded garden. 

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Ayashe, or Ashe as most people call her, was born into the very well off Kalu family, who are one of the biggest suppliers of ""Multi-Versatile Tech"" to TERA. Their ""tech"" is specialized weapons, armor, and other components (grenades/canisters/bullets/etc. that can be imbued with Light and only affect creatures of malice). Being well known for their creative and inventive designs and contributions to TERA, Ayashe as their eldest child was pretty much a shoe-in to join the Knights of TERA when she presented the capabilities to control the Light. 

She fought the notion for as long as she could, bypassing the usual sign up age of twelve. She wanted to invent new tech with her family, to become a person capable of making a true difference in the grand scheme of things - but her dreams were squashed by her overbearing parents. Ayashe was forced into becoming a Knight when she turned fourteen. 

She hated it, and would rebel on purpose just to see how far she could push the issue. During her second year, her actions caused a grievous error while on the field, and the event was quickly hushed and swept under the rug due to her family pulling strings. In return for secrecy, Ayashe was shipped off to Greyridge, away from everything she knew, so that she could start anew.

She was traumatized by what had happened, and eventually resolved to <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> take her duties lightly again. At the age of sixteen, two years after starting her Knighthood, she finally <span class=""bb-i"">became</span> a Knight in more than just name. Her superiors noticed a vast difference in her attitude on the field (though her off-field demeanor remained roughly the same, much to their chagrin), and she finally rose through the ranks. Her time of delinquency has put her behind her peers in rank, but she cares as much for status as she cares for people, which is to say <span class=""bb-b"">very</span> little.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hobbies:</span> When she isn't honing her body, she's doing something with her hands. She loves to invent, so art has played a big role in her life and she draws, sketches, and paints avidly, usually on her tablet as she walks around. And, unsurprisingly enough, she loves to craft tech, but without the facilities to do so, she makes basic armor, such as chain mail and the like, in her spare time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Style:</span> Defender

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> She dislikes using her abilities to their full extent, preferring to imbue her family's tech with her power instead of going right into combat. When push comes to shove, Ayashe will drop her tech and go into true Defender mode. Her Light acts as a ""glue"", and she wraps it around her body as a second skin, protecting her from most harm while increasing her strength to hold off against foes. If she extends it and snaps it back in, she can pull enemies to her, almost like a sticky vortex. She keeps them in place during these times so that her teammates can finish them off.</div></div></div>"

Yes. The creatures we encounter will be from various legends, so one day we will fight a gorgon, the next we might fight a tengu. I will try and keep it exiting, it gives the nationality thing a little more if you ask me too.

@Aphelion
Sure, you can join. I like the character and I hate odd numbers. You are on the right track, and your equipment serves several of my intentions. That sort of tech would be very revolutionary, and would give TERA a new direction to go in. The idea of not having to put children on the front lines would be very appealing to many of the Lords, not to mention the possibility of a deeper understanding of the Light. But as I said, experimental tech, which seems to work for you. In order for it to work appropriately with the way I have everything in my head, have it where you need to ""prime"" it just before use, meaning you have to put your own personal Light into it in order to use it in the moment. If that’s ok, then I approve.</div>"

Gender: Female
Age: 29

Nationality: British

Appearance: Ellie has a distinct red hair, being a bright red- this being her natural shade, rather than an artificial one. She stands at about 5""7, with a fairly feminine build, though her features are fairly on the small side. She keeps her hair fairly short, to the top of her neck, and has a pair of blue eyes, being quite distinctly sharp for a woman of her type. Her EVA suit has a distinct British flag, on the left shoulder where many of the other operators would also have their distinct patch, with a small marking of her mission on Prospect Horizon. 

Job: Astronaut (Head of EVA)

Brief Background: Ellie was born in Dover, England, to a fairly middle class family- being brought up in a stable household, and doing very well in school. Her passion was engineering- she was one of the few girls who genuinely adored studying the subject, and she did exceptionally well at it. But there was one thing she did even better- and that was her dedication to the. She attended the University of British Columbia, in Canada, taking an Aeronautical Engineering degree before returning to the UK to join the Fleet Air Arm as a helicopter pilot. She found herself very capable flying Merlin helicopters off the aircraft carrier deck of the HMS Queen Elizabeth, and whilst she didn't do any combat sorties, she was asked if she wanted to become an Astronaut, as a part of the UK's dedication to the European Space Agency's mission in collaboration with various other countries. This was two years before the launch of the Prospect Horizon- and she took the offer gladly, taking this route into becoming an astronaut, obtaining a Masters degree part-time whilst studying towards this. It was during this period she got married to her boyfriend, Ben- though this was a romance that was short lived, because she was a part of the second deployment to the Prospect Horizon.

Adjusting to Extra Vehicular Activity, and helping set up the Prospect Horizon's initial habitation modules was tricky, but something she did exceptionally well. Private companies were mainly responsible for the materials sent up- with the co-ordination of international space programs bringing it together as a symbol of unity, under a scientific banner. Ellie remembered the ISS of days past, and this was something new- a far bigger chance to launch humanity forwards. She proved her worth well enough to be deployed again on the sixth deployment of people to the station, back when it was only at 100 people- and again on the 16th Deployment, about four months ago. She's at home aboard the station, and feels comfortable- while it's still in Zero-G, it's something she acclimatizes to well, and she's a career Astronaut now. One day, she hopes to become the station commander, instead of her current role as an Acting Head of EVA- an important, but role that she feels she wants to go beyond. She is very skilled outside the the station in dealing with matters that would otherwise require an expert's hand, and while knowing that there are others that are older and perhaps wiser, she's still got a lot of potential, and has been frequently enough in the last few years to have a very concentrated experience. 

Ellie is seen as a petite woman compared to her peers, and often is questioned for her role as the Head of a department, running such a critical role outside the station, at her age and size, being perhaps a little smaller than most men and even women. Going out on a spacewalk with her, however, and you understand why. She's learned rapidly, and is very well experienced, though of course, the events of the 5th of September will prove still far more than she can handle. Ellie is more than technical enough, and treats any walk out into the abyss like it was a walk in the park, even if her fellow Astronauts are panicking. This is something a little different.

Special Equipment:

Name: 
Viktor Dyatlov (Виктор Дятлов)

Gender: 
Male

Age: 
41

Appearance:
The first thing to strike someone about Viktor’s appearance is how tired the man always looks, his dark green eyes being permanently marred with dark bags underneath them and always seeming to be bloodshot, even first thing in the morning or rather more accurately when his shift starts. His short hair, once jet black is now more a dark grey colour mixed with numerous streaks of lighter white. It’s constantly in a messy state and is the last thing he’d consider worthwhile ‘maintaining’ since it seems perpetually untameable. That all being said he does seem to ooze energy, his eyes often darting around and his hands never really being still as he fidgets almost constantly. All in all he gives off the impression of being unable to relax or ‘switch off’ quite frequently, and it’s quite noticeable to anyone who spends a little time with him. 
Generally he doesn’t go outside of the station, so the EVA suit he happened to be wearing was just standard issue. It just so happens to have an American flag on the left shoulder, being one of the few spare suits available at the time. 
 

Job : Engineer, 1st class. 

Brief Background: 
Viktor was born on the 1st of January 2000 in a Russian scientific facility to the north of the village Khatanga, Siberia. One of the northern most towns in the world with a subarctic climate and very little in the way of luxuries, not that he ever visited the village much spending most of his time in the facility. His childhood consisted of a mixture of military and scientific education administered by the only teacher to a class of only six pupils, Viktor being the youngest as generally staff were dissuaded from having children. His parents were both scientists who spent the majority of their time working and paying little attention to their son despite his numerous achievements. He excelled academically despite hating everything about the environment he was in, earning top marks throughout his education. He excelled even more as he left ‘home’ to attend the Moscow State Physics-technical Institute, graduating as a specialist in both Aircraft Flight Dynamics and Control and Aeronautical Engineering. He completed post-graduate studies at the same institute as a specialist in the field of Mechanics of Fluids and Plasma. Quickly being snapped up by Roscosmos he soon became one of the foremost minds of his country, even working closely with the best mind of both NASA and ESA for many years despite the rocky political situation caused by Russia’s continued ‘aggressions’. He was one of the head minds behind Prospect Horizon, working on her from practically day one. That being said Viktor had never actually been to space and persistently declined opportunities to do so, even after the Prospect Horizon station became reality. Finally he was put in a position where his career forced him into space, his expertise being his down-fall as he eventually became one of the few Russian engineers capable of maintaining and upgrading some of the station’s complex systems. He was sent on the 15th deployment and has been there for about a year now, very slowly adjusting to life in zero-gravity.  With only four previous EVA experiences under his belt he is far from confident outside of the station, but even he hasn’t been able to avoid it altogether, especially when the French engineer scheduled to do routine maintenance is sick.

Gender: Male

Age: 36

Nationality: British-born Australian

Appearance: Jeremiah is youthful looking, generally cheerful, with brown hair, bright green eyes, and a trimmed full-face beard. His EVA suit is mostly normal, but bears a specially made flag (dark blue with a picture of a helium atom, including all the up and down red green blue quarks) on the left shoulder.

Job: Jeremiah is a professor in physics, especially theoretical and quantum physics. He went on the walk because he requested to do so, as hi is fascinated with all sciences, and he wished to observe.

Brief Background: Jeremiah had a good upbringing into a rich family. He moved to Australia from England when he was 2. His father was an engineer and his mother was a biochemist, so naturally Jeremiah grew up loving science. He was prodigious in his study, working hard to achieve good grades throughout all levels of schooling. He went to university and studied his most loved form of science, physics. He went on to study quantum particles, and became a professor at age 30. At age 32, he was chosen to go up to the Prospect Horizon to lecture and study photons and radiation from the sun. 

Jeremiah fit in well, being a cheerful and outgoing person. He focused on his work and did so efficiently. However, inside, his self esteem began to crumble, from a combination of the stress of formulas he couldn't complete, problems with workmates, a lack of romantic success, and the fear of high expectations that he could not live up to. Outwardly, Jeremiah remains happy, but his emotional state is slowly decreasing inside. 

Special Equipment: Being an observer, Jeramiah bought a camera to film and photograph the happenings. He also bought a thruster pack for ease of movement.</div>"

Gender: Male

Age: 45

Appearance Standing just barely 5 foot 8 inches tall. A good 200 pounds even. Close to retirement, but still strong and quick. Close shaven hair, and just the hint of a beard, you can get away with alot when you're nearing retirement and are an astronaut let him tell ya. His EVA suit is a standard job for the most part, with the added customization with a several large bright red and orange chevrons and the blatantly clear ""Safety Specialist"" title emblazoned upon the back of his helmet and the arms and legs. Of course on his arm is the good ol' red Maple Leafy, protected partially under a harder piece of the suit. Letting everyone know when they look and see it, that Canada is represented on the station with pride.

Job: Astronaut - Safety Specialist and Shuttle Pilot

Brief Background: Neil came up from the slums of a First Nations reserve. And for the first decade and some of his life, wasn't expected to go anywhere because of his lower income upbringing and the gang mentality of his peers. But peer pressure didn't bring him down, he worked to excell, and to persevere. Where his age group got into drugs and drink. He got into sports and math. He went to university on a sports scholarship but excelled in academics. So much so that the place he played for made exceptions for their aspiring player.

He went on to enter the military namely the airforce, and there again excelled, becoming a pilot of fighter jets. And applied for astronaut training as well. In between training, and his duties he went back to the reserve and gave talks to students about what he'd done, and implored them to look beyond the reserve and try to become more then just slum kids and look to their academics.

He got his go ahead to enter space training. And went through all that good stuff with gusto. When he was ready he was approached to pilot several missions, operating the shuttle quite well, and with the reflexes that befitted a fighter pilot. He went up on small missions at first, before being offered one of the shuttle pilot positions on the Prospect Horizon. There he ferried goods to and from shuttles coming in that were unable to dock or helping to maneuver larger pieces of the station or experiments in and out of holding positions on the station. He's spent three 5 months periods on the station on and off since he got the position.

Brief Background: He was a bit of a geek in his youth, spending more time studying than even his parents required.  He went to one of the best prep schools in Japan, and graduated second in his class.  He went to college in Tokyo to get a degree in electrical engineering.  After graduating from college, he got a job as an engineer with Virgin Galactic (it was bought by Google in 2023), hoping to go to Mars as a colonist.  Instead, he was assigned the job of building the ship the colonists would use.
He came to the station a few weeks ago, along with a load of technical parts and supplies.

Engineering

The Prospect Horizon, from no matter which angle you really viewed it from, was a goliath. That was an understatement, no less- to house 300 people, you needed a lot of station. And Ellie Tavistock was one of those crew, the Acting Head of Extra-Vehicular Activity floating through the Engineering department, looking over at diagnostics, and then at the Earth below. She always liked to get a view- right now, she could see the Horn of Africa, and the Red Sea as clear as day, sunrise touching their shores as she knew for them, it was a new day. She'd been up for just an hour, but she'd already eaten, and cleaned herself up as best as she could. Right now, she had a EVA to plan out, and the diagnostics she checked, was on the suits sitting to her left. She knew the crew would be over soon, but it was a simple process to plan out. It was about a four hour walk, and she'd gotten them about five hours, if the supply that they had would last them. She thought about sending out a drone, but that wouldn't do the job. This was more sensitive. It needed extended tool-work, and the drones were bad at that. Good at fitting things, but not at piecing careful components together with a combination of strength and precision. That was why she had the team she had picked. They could get more oxygen or kit from the airlock when need be- she knew that the crewman could feed it through quickly if the situation arose. But these shorter walks weren't half a surprise to Ellie, and somewhat, she knew that this would be a simple job.

In terms of clothing, there was a thermal shirt and cotton longjohns aboove some thermal underwear that Ellie wore, followed by a packaged liquid-membrane that almost fitted all over, as a coolant within the spacesuit. The latest model was far more efficient than anything that had been in the past on NASA's spacesuits on the ISS- rather than taking 45 minutes to labor over, it took a third of that time, and was a snugger jacket to wear. Other factors, such as the fact that you had to wear a diaper on this run, wasn't half surprising. The usual, even.  Ellie checked the last of the specs, before floating through the section, looking out the far end, at the Airlock, a snug but compressed area, then at the EVA suits. She reached above to grab a small radio device, something she knew would reach the right source.
""Calling the crew for EVA #57, for the Greenhouse Work to Engineering Airlock. Get yourselves down here within the next five minutes. Thank you."" She said simply, in her regular calm voice, one that was neither too antagonizing nor positive. It was calmly neutral. It was a job to Ellie, not something she carried her whole soul through. Though of course, a hidden pleasure in her was always there, when she looked out at the Sea of Aden seeing a sunrise.

Putting the radio back, she drifted down, a little deeper into the bay, the crystalline white a complete difference to the black outside. She knew that it was going to take a hell of a while to get sorted- but she might as well begin. The rest would be here, as she got clad in her membrane, before piece by piece, working on her EVA suit. The flag of Albion sat on the left shoulder, with a patch of the Prospect Horizon, and her name. The suits had a distinct white and black, and were the latest generation of extra-vehicular activity spacesuits, being more tactile and easier fitting. She took the helmet off piece by piece, and slowly began to become clad up in the hefty EVA suit, a light object in Zero Gravity, but heavy back on earth. It felt strange, but this was life. Ellie knew that six years ago, she was still flying helicopters. Now she had enough experience to compete with some of the best that the world had to offer in Astronauts, and she was good at her job. Back in the UK, she'd gained a little fame, for being among the first British astronauts involved on such a project. Especially the fact she was close to clinching an important role, and was a female. Now that was a factor. But no less, she knew that it was nothing to change her mentality over. She was as much Ellie Tavistock as she liked, her husband and family liked, and probably anyone aboard the station did. Just that redhead that knew how to run a spacewalk, that was all. And she liked things the way they were. One of the men of Engineering threw himself through the gap, wearing a Italian patch on his shoulder, and having probably as neat a mustache as a man could get around here. 
""Fabio, good to see you. Got the crew for the walk coming over, I might need some help getting them sorted and into the suits, and you flushing us out. I've already run diagnostics on kit, I've been here for at least half an hour checking through each bit of it, and that's on top of what I know you said you did a few hours back."" Ellie said, as Fabio, or better known as Fabio Lorenzo, the ESA's other contribution to EVA systems aboard this station nodded as he was looking over. The Italian was about 5""10, and had shaved short hair, with his distinct olive tone suggesting he was from south of Rome. Maybe Naples, even as far as Sicily- he was more Mediterranean than northern, yet his Italian accent wasn't something that dragged when he spoke. 
""Yes, I had a look for you, seems all good. I saw you're taking Dyatlov and King out, you sure they're cut for this?"" He asked, as Ellie squrimed a little, still finding it a little tricky to fit in, as she adjusted her shortly-kept red hair, before bringing a hairnet out, with a white cotton snoopy hat going over, which left only her face and neck visible on her haid. She tucked herself in deeper into the suit, exhaling hard as she looked to him, the suit's helmet by her side at her sitting position. The fact that she could do this alone was pretty remarkable- usually, it took a lot of time and effort, but the way these had been made meant it was far easier to fit in. She had a knack- others, not so much, but she wanted Fabio to look over. He wasn't ultimately who she reported to, but Ellie knew that you respected the person who was flushing you out into the vaccum of space, especially with a team like this.

""They'll be fine. Dyatlov is just a little panicky, not as confident on walks as he could be. Russians don't usually have a knack for work outside like the Americans do. He has it in him, though. Shame Rousseau couldn't come, he's a good man to have; knows every bolt like he'd set it there himself. King, now he's a Scientist. I don't like having to babysit, but he's going to be there so I'll make sure that if we have an extra hand, we use it."" She said, as she slid deeper in, checking the suit's arms and hands, the thick gloved hand responding to her reflex, as she fully dropped inside. Ellie knew that in a moment, she would be beyond the point of no return. The oxygenation process would begin, and her suit was hooked up into the supply, a tank in a panel across from the rack, that piped pure O2 through into the suit. It went in and the resultant CO2 was piped immediately back out- though this was merely an arrangement that got the user's breathing up to scratch. Namely, it meant that simular to how a diver would have the bends when nitrogen bubbles form in their blood, that Ellie didn't have them. And it almost felt like time, as she knew that once the others were over, the long half hour process would begin. People like Neil would be more than useful- he'd be able to sort the others out if Fabio was busy, and keep an eye on them. 

""I heard good things of those Virgin Galatic workers. Probably won't see them, but I think a handful of their group got put out on electronics on the Mars machine."" She said, as Fabio had a look over the connector of her suit's chest and legs, helping secure up the bits that Ellie couldn't, as he got back up and checked over King's gear.
""Maybe. But you stay safe out there, Ellie. Always makes me wonder why you wanted this. I don't go out half as much as you do. You have a certain confidence with it."" He said, as she chuckled, Fabio shaking his head somewhat at the thought.
""And it's why I'm Acting Station chief on spacewalks, Fabio.""
""Yeah, but that's because Commander Ivanovich isn't about right now...""
""Say what you like, he's ill too. Fucking people catching a flu up here. They sent him back, I still can't believe that."" She added, as Fabio nodded his head silently, still looking over Jeremiah's spacesuit, followed by Neil's. 

Ellie leaned back, feeling somewhat thoughtful, thinking. It was time like this you thought. About your husband, about family. She hadn't seen Ben in a while. And while she knew things were strained with him, he was happy for her. He was happy he had a wife that did what she loved, and while Ben was just merely an Engineer who worked in civilian aviation, they got along so well. She chatted to him whenever she found the time, and while it wasn't the same as being in person, this was a long distance relationship that was still afloat. Long distance, meaning, it was literally hundreds of kilometers out of his world. Maybe she would give this up. Hand in notice when she returned from this. Retire, just become a housewife. Something normal. Not some astronaut, living what Ellie once had considered a fantasy. She said to herself she'd join the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy, and that was her life, as a helicopter pilot. And yet this fantasy was so real. It was strange, but it was only a glimmer in Ellie's mind, as she exhaled, looking around at the suiting area.

Right now, Ellie waited, knowing that when they arrived, they knew the drill. She'd briefed them earlier, and told them precisely what was happening, and how. She wanted no problems, and knew that any last moment things, she could get across whilst they were getting their suits on, and their helmets. Then it would truly begin, and they'd be no longer able to just run back to this. Their blood would be purged of nitrogen bubbles, and they'd be getting used to breathing pure oxygen for the next few hours. It wasn't anything that different, but it had a different taste, almost like Gunpowder. Ellie sat on, looking over as Fabio floated above, configuring the diagnostics of the compartment's 3D Printer, as Ellie checked the internals of the suit's electronics. The HUD would function, as would the heating, coolant and the suit's oxygen, and sealing system. Good. She knew hers was good to go, as she stayed strapped down, fully kitted up, bar for her helmet. It would be time soon enough, to get going.</div>"

He'd been working on the inside, installing upgrades to the computer system.  Even though he had come over through a docking port, he was wearing his suit, with only the gloves and helmet removed.  After all, you didn't want to be without a suit with someone working on the hull on an unfinished ship.  One minor mistake and the hull could breach.  ""Hey Rodriguez, how's that comms dish going?""

""I'm just hooking it up."" A few seconds later the computer notified Makoto that a new device had been connected to the system.  

""Plug and play spaceship parts."" said Makoto, ""much better than the old style upgrades they use on the station.  They should really upgrade their software.""  He verified that the new dish was installed and online.  ""Computer, connect to VGSAT 01 and download all available upgrades for the comms system.""

The screen displayed a box which detailed the download. ""1.1 gb/sec"".  He watched the download for a few seconds to make sure it was working.  ""6.8 gb of 1.2 tb."" it read.  ""Such a slow download."" he muttered to himself.  ""At least the upgraded software will speed it up from this 10 year old outdated form.""</div>"

Please accept my apology]

An older Canadian First Nations man floated over the left shoulder of a younger tech who was carefully attaching some wiring and cowling to the inside of one of the capsules. Both astronauts were grounded to the inside of the capsule carefully. Neither astronaut in any mood to have some of the stations energy stream blaze through them like a lightning bolt. It's the Canadian who speaks up, ""You know what I think you did wrong in this case Percy? Should have connected the red ends last. Because those wires are live. And as much as we need these lines, it would have been alot safer to have connected them backwards."" The younger astronauts looks at the set up nodding in understanding, ""You see Pat? This is exactly why I wanted you to watch over my shoulder while doing this.""

Neil Patrick Stienhauer nodded, ""Okay I'll give you that. For now, you know. It's okay sometimes not to do things by the manual for safety's sake."" Percy nodded, ""Thanks old man."" Just then the annoucement for the EVA walkers to report came over the PA. Neil checked his watch, ""Damn time flies. Okay. Finish up. And don't fry yourself. I need to get down there. I'm the safety specialist for this walk."" The older airforce major unclipped the grounding line. Pulled a half somersault, planted his feet then kicked off the cieling? and drifted through a connector coil carefully.

It took him all of 3 minutes. And soon he's squeezing through one of the connectors leading into the Airlock module. Reaching out with practiced ease he caught an overhead handlebar. Bringing himself to a practiced stop. He smiled at Ellie and Fabio, ""Hey there you two, sorry about that was up helping Percy. Making sure he wouldn't fry himself. Didn't miss anything did I?"" He smiled warmly as he floated over casually to start checking his suit.</div>"

Excited. Very very excited. He'd been briefed, he'd been trained (albeit briefly), and finally, he was just about to spacewalk... Like, actually move around, in a complete vacuum, protected by what is practically a few layers of fabric. It was nerve-racking, but exhilarating. He made his way through the station, the adrenaline pumping. As a child, he didn't dream of becoming an astronaut, so it wasn't as if this was some lifelong goal... but it was still awesome.

He arrived at the Engineering Airlock, smiling ecstatically at Ellie, Fabio, and Pat.

""Hey,"" almost out of breath from excitement. ""How are we all?"" He looked around. His suit was ready for action. He went over to it to begin preparing for the mission.""</div>"

He finished with the recalibrations before pushing away softly as he continued to think about everything that could go wrong with the upcoming spacewalk, drifting weightlessly for a few moments before the crackle of the comms panel brought him back into focus as the familiar voice of Ellie Tavistock reached his ears. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Calling the crew for EVA #57, for the Greenhouse Work to Engineering Airlock. Get yourselves down here within the next five minutes. Thank you.""</span>

His stomach lurched and did a little backflip as he groaned and ran both of his hands through his hair hesitating for a moment longer as apprehension filled him, taking yet another moment to reassure himself silently. <span class=""bb-i"">‘It’ll be fine’</span> he said to himself <span class=""bb-i"">‘You’ve done it before, you’ll do it again. Just focus, get the job done and get back’.</span>He knew that the build up was the worst part for him, bringing himself to actually just get out there, but once he was out there and working he’d relax a little and stop focusing on all of the worst case scenarios that could present themselves. 

Starting to look pale as a spectre Viktor began the short journey through the station, floating along and using his arms to pull and push himself where he needed to go, the novelty of weightlessness having long ago faded and now the lack of direction and forces acting simply frustrating him whenever something slipped from his grasp. When combined with the almost constant exercise regime he had to endure he was definitely looking forwards to returning back to the sweet sweet earth and its wonderful gravitational field. As he neared the airlock module where the rest of the EVA team would be waiting he paused at one of the small windows and spent a brief moment gazing down at the world, as always the sight being somewhat humbling and breathtaking even after all of this time. His eyes flicked over towards the exterior of the greenhouse, the numerous bits of scaffolding and machinery drawing his attention as he imagined that shortly he’d be out there floating in the abyss with little more than a tether and thin layer of suit protecting him from certain death, his eyes focusing briefly on the inky darkness that loomed in the background of his vision. 

“Chyort voz'mi...” he mumbled to himself, cursing in his native tongue as he often did as his nerves still panged almost painfully at him. A few moments later he propelled himself into the module, seeing that already Ellie and the Canadian Stienhauer were there preparing as usual, with the observer... something King it was, floating with a huge grin spread across his features. Still pale and a little shaky Viktor neglected to say anything to the others and moved right towards his suit, the American flag emblazed on the shoulder glaring back at him as if to taunt him a little as he quickly started to prep it and himself. He sweated a little as he did, though the sight of Ellie calmed him a little – simply because he trusted in her abilities and role, something he had quickly learned on his first few walks as she always had the patience to deal with him and reassure him <span class=""bb-i"">if</span> needed. If it wasn’t for her he was sure that after his first spacewalk he’d have flat out refused to ever do it again. 

Then there was Stienhauer, the capable Canadian who was more than familiar with these kinds of walks. All in all he was happy with the crew of the walk, each of them being an expert within their role, and with plentiful enough experience outside the station to get the job done as quickly as possible.  Viktor didn’t know much about King, their observer, but he figured that he would stay out of the way whilst they did what they needed to do whilst he filmed and took pictures, and as long as he didn’t distract them there wouldn’t be any problems, though he did slightly envy the man as he glanced again over towards him, his excitement practically oozing out of him as he was also preparing his suit for the walk.</div>"

I will be quite liberal with where you are placed in regards to it- though keep in mind, Viktor doesn't have a thruster pack, and neither does Makato. Post order if you wish, it's not mandatory.)

Ellie watched them all come, one by one, as they got kitted up. They were all knowing of what this was. A walk into the nether. The outside was a vacuum, so cold and filled with radiation, that it would ruin you if you didn't wear a spacesuit, and no doubt, simultaneously boil and freeze your blood. It was something she'd never seen. But she'd take the word for it, because it was quiet. Just silent. Just somewhat strange, almost crazy. But it was what she did. Looking around, she looked over to Viktor, as he kitted up.

""Good to see you all. Just so we're all clear, I know you've practiced on Earth, gone through the simulator and the water tanks. I know Neil and Viktor should be fine, but do not decide to do anything crazy, King. You follow my instruction, and nothing happens. You should know automatically what you're doing. Neil could rant on, but just so you know, I've never had any critical issues, and I don't want any today. So you keep careful, and stick to us well."" Ellie said, as she looked over, watching as they all suited up, the process long but needing. It was a lot of kit, and very complicated. But this was what kept you alive. It wasn't velcro, or zips. No, they would fail. It was a knot and effecively, a corkscrew mechanism that kept you alive. As rudimental as it sounded, the latter was so strong, it would probably need enough force to rip your body apart to take you to pieces. And that was always something that Ellie considered- they were based on very good technology, and were fundamentally, very effective.
""Okay, when you're set, helmets on, get the oxygen flowing. I'll ping you on radio, give a thumbs up if you can hear."" She said, adjusting her headset in the snoopy hat a little, strapped around her neck and going to her ear.  Fabio was helping the others, as she put her helmet on, screwing it in as she clipped it, as securely as it could get. Hearing her own breath, she felt the oxygen supply kick a little, and her lungs feel a little different. This would take some time.

""Testing, testing."" Ellie simply said, aware that this was it. Another walk. Like the others she'd done. The suit felt remarkably light, almost as if she was a blimp, of some sort. Being petite naturally, it felt very strange indeed, looking down the arms and legs, through the reinforced and almost golden-tinted visor. It was a childhood dream to most. She could see it in King. To Steinhauser, this was normality. And as it was for her, she reminded herself. This was a good job, but it took a mindset of steel to suceed. And that she'd proven on many an occasion. She was good at what she did. Sitting up, she inspected the suit-mounted thruster pack, being something that was perhaps a little better for buoyoncy, rather than drifting. It would work very well in moving to inspect close up, rather than drift through, though she knew the team went with whatever worked best. Her toolkit, like it did on all the suits, sat below that pack, with the mechanisms inside being optimized for Zero-G. You couldn't lose a bolt or a screwhead- it was tethered by a specific mechanism that always kept it clipped to the case, which was always attached to the operator, namely, her. It had been an old invention, but they worked. On a scale like this, they were the easiest method, over anything more futuristic. A tablet would come in handy to just configure the panel that needed to be fixed, and perhaps make it a little easier to perform diagnostics- a tool she'd be willing to lend to Viktor. Of course, Ellie knew that a 3D Printer was always an option, if she wanted a small fabricator for this run. But for now, the airlock would be an area that Fabio could send things through, when need be. And as she breathed in slowly, the HMD kicking in on the visor, displaying her suit's status, oxygen, orientation respective to the station, as well as a few other points of interest, such as the digitally-enabled panel that they'd be working on, she looked back over. The HUD picked off the crew, and it was somewhat useful to be able to see them- though this thing didn't always work perfectly, with some of the suits. It seemed okay, for now. No matter. She waited for a response from the others, and sat tight, checking and double checking the rest of her. From the flag of Britain sitting on her left shoulder, to the thick gloved hands at her fingers. It would take a while, but once she knew the HUD pinged it up, and she'd seen Fabio check over and give the go ahead that indeed, the nitrogen had been flushed from her blood, they'd be going. It wasn't worth the risk, at least for now to have the bends, or Decompression Sickness- it would hurt your bones, and generally be confusing to deal with, something of which Ellie could say was something that you definitely didn't want in this environment. Sitting back, she waited, letting her thoughts assemble. She knew they knew precisely what was going on, and she'd brief them soon, before they headed out.

Half an Hour Later

Within the airlock, the feeling was tense, Ellie right by the door, looking through the small window that sat within it. The smell of gunpowder was something that they said you could smell, but right now, Ellie didn't feel it. More like the smell of rubber, in her suit's lining. It was strange. She turned to the others, keeping her hand on a rail close to the door. The pressure was dropping, from an interface on the wall- this place would be soon decompressed fully, and they could go. 
""Okay, people; the plan is simple. We've got a faulty set of solar panels on the side of the Greenhouse, and while we're at it, we're going to also tinker with a plating on the roof of the station, and re-seal it. There's another two layers below, but this skin needs to be rebound. Hence the reason we've got tools, gents. King, I want you to have minimal effort on this mission- you stay back, and stay clamped into something solid. You've got karabiners attached to the core of your suit, clip them when need be to the kink points along the side. Use minimal thrust; use only when necessary, people. You know precisely the Safety concerns. Neil will keep an eye out on us, and him, myself and Viktor will conduct the engineering work. If we need help, Jeremiah, we'll call you over. Act on my command. You look like it's your first time for real. It's a surreal feeling, trust me."" She said, as she looked over, the flow of oxygen just as expected, as a slow klaxon went off. Then, it slowly felt like it was real.

The door opened, the hatch opening up, as Ellie used the rail to pull herself out, almost scooting up in such a way that she kicked off nicely, drifting upwards, rather than sidewards. Direction made little sense here, but Ellie had gotten used to it.
""Follow on me. Slowly."" She said, calmly speaking, not sounding panicky or tense. She spoke as if she knew precisely what King was going through right now. He may have been happy, but he'd be confused, tense. And this was going to happen by the book. Moving up, she clipped in, hearing Fabio over comms.
""This is Fabio, airlock is sealing. I'll watch via camera, have a good one out there."" He simply said, the Italian still within engineering, as the little jutting peninsula of the Prospect Horizon sat below Ellie. She looked back, and saw the crew following, with the earth in the background. In 30 minutes, they'd almost done a full orbit. And in full view, was the Atlantic Ocean below, the whole gleaming bowl that was the Earth just a wonderful thing to see. She could see almost nine billion people through her visor. Nine, Billion. Nine billion people going about their lives. It was morning in New York and Toronto, and they were waking up, to grab their breakfast and their morning papers. Across the Atlantic, it was just lunchtime in London, and over the Home Counties of England, with the sun at Ellie's back sitting high above them. Further across, was Moscow, experiencing a bright evening, and further than that, the lakes and wastes of Siberia, which went on and on. The earth was dark further East, the other side not visible in Ellie's visor. It took her almost a moment to take into account. This was the civilization below that had done this. Pioneered why she was here. Humanity was instinctively able to develop, and whilst war was always something, it did this. A future for the race that had once confined itself to just one home. It looked out now, and this station was the start, albeit a tiny fragment. Yet Ellie knew that no matter what, just not letting it get the best of you was the best move. She moved along, unclipping, as she moved along, almost blimping it in a way, towards the next clip in point.
""Okay, King, I want you to continue following me. Dylatov, Steinhauser, you move along the side, down towards the solar panel. Remember, don't drift, and since slow is smooth, smooth is steady. Calm."" She said, reassuringly, as she moved up, clipping in the karabiner. She had no idea of what happened next, because even Ellie Tavistock wasn't able to comprehend it.

The explosion was gut-wrenching, and could be seen first in the Greenhouse, followed by the rest of Habitation, and Logistics. It was a chain reaction, as module after module simply either disintegrated, or became blasted apart. Ellie was almost unable to comprehend it, and even her mind wasn't fast enough. She suddenly felt thrown back, the module below her rippling and knocked back severely.

-----

A minute later, Ellie opened her eyes, almost screaming. She didn't know what had happened. How she was alive. If the rest were alive. She didn't want to know. But panic rushed. She breathed almost double, her heart thundering. She looked around, activating the thruster pack, the HUD picking it up. She yelled without thought, looking around. She was being pushed back. Her kink point had disintergrated, and the karabiner had been blown apart. Her suit, however, was intact. She felt nothing significant, the HUD said that whilst there was a little bit of wear on the legs, she was good to go. She was lucky to be alive, right now, and in a state like this. She looked towards blackness, and had to turn around, to see the carnage. It was gobsmacking. The thruster pack had simply stopped her drift, as she looked around, at the flying and blown apart parts of the station.
""Fuck!"" She yelled, as she breathed hard, aware she must have almost been hyperventilating.
""Anyone, do you receive! Find something solid and hang on! Viktor hasn't got a thruster pack, if you see him, catch him!"" She screamed, the HUD unable to pick anyone up. She cursed quietly, almost in tears, just knowing that couldn't happen. Calm down. She had to move up, back up to something. Engineering hadn't been blown apart, it was the largest segment that was still intact, a huge behemoth of a line-based module system that looked still vaguely intact. She only had one thing in mind. Everyone could be dead. Her fellow EVA walkers, everyone on station, everyone working on the Mars machine, everyone. She might be the only one left. Whilst fragments of habitation were left, she could see from here, that it was in pieces. She had to drift over, find someone, as the whole thing shook, moving about. She had to line up, at least somehow get in line with Engineering, see who was left. The majority of the group was behind her, maybe they'd stayed karbinered in. Or maybe they were gone too, but not backwards, yet downwards. Then they'd be dead. She had to tell herself to stop panicking. But she couldn't hold herself entirely together. The Prospect Horizon was now shrapnel in the sky, and no doubt, news outlets on earth would already have cameras pointed. About the tragedy, how 298 people are dead, and that no radio contact existed. Ellie's radio barely touched the comms of the others, and she knew it would be bad.

Moving up, she grabbed the remnants of their airlock, looking around, as she moved up, scrambling inside. The station was clustered, but bits had completely vanished, or just been turned to pulp. The chain reaction seemed to only be Habitation, and the Greenhouse areas, hitting Logistics and the docked SpaceX craft. That was now out of orbit, blown to pieces, and she could see the whole structure fall to the earth.. But remarkably, the Mars machine, as Ellie and the others knew it, was still there. It looked significantly damaged, as if it had been picked apart, but remained docked to Medical and Scientific bays. It was a strange feeling, but somehow, Ellie knew she had to keep thinking of the situation.
""Does anyone receive me?"" Ellie cried once again on the radio, breathing hard, as she looked at her HUD, knowing precisely what it said. Four hours, seventeen minutes of oxygen remaining. Then, Ellie would suffocate. That was unavoidable. She kept thinking to herself, as she looked around, scanning her eyes meticulously for anyone that was drifting. She knew that Viktor had no thruster pack, and instantly almost panicked. He could be dead, but Jeremaiah, and Steinhauser, they did. She held on tight, the airlock completely comprimised open. Fabio's body drifted, and she almost retched, had it not been for her greater instinct telling her not to. 

It was a horrifying sight to see, and it wasn't just his body. Two more technicians from the far side of engineering were following the orbit of the ruined Prospect Horizon. She held herself as best as she could together, just hanging on. Ellie racked her mind for an escape route. But it was a lot to look over. If she regrouped with her team, they needed to get out, and fast. No waiting. They needed to find an escape pod, and get the survivors to the Earth- anywhere would do. Reestablish communications if need be, find oxygen, find perhaps even other survivors that could find a dated Sokol suit, or were on the Mars craft. If they were wearing their helmets and full suits at the time, Ellie guessed they could easily live, but she hadn't a clue. No less, she knew that this was perhaps the end. She had to stop saying it, but no matter what way you looked at it, they were 500km above the Earth's surface, there was a dwindling oxygen supply, and no doubt, she could at any moment have her suit punctured by flying shards of metal or paint, if it wasn't for the fact that she was now within a sheltered area by the airlock. For now, she had to watch, and if she saw anyone, Ellie knew what to do. Go to them, and get them to safety, if it was on of her EVA crew. Anyone else aboard habitation or in the Greenhouse was dead, and she was able to guarantee that, almost for certain. Escape was the only way now, and Ellie knew as good as anyone, it would take a split second for a single thing to happen, such as a secondary explosion, or flying shrapnel, and they'd be dead.</div>"

He let himself float as the oxygen filled up. His excitement had become more nervous. What is something went wrong? Had he missed anything in the preparations? He took a deep breath. Of course nothing would go wrong. He was in the capable hands of Ellie, and there was nobody he trusted more for the job.

They airlock decompressed. He was ready. He was going to space walk.

As Ellie began to move out, Jeremiah followed. He heard all her instructions over the com system, and obeyed as needed. He suddenly realized... he was in the void. Outside of the EVA there was only emptiness. It was incredible for a human being, a historically earth-bound creature, to be able to to do this. He looked over the Prospect Horizon. He'd never seen it from the outside. It was better than he imagined...

And suddenly it was gone.

Jeremiah saw as the Greenhouse began to explode. In the split seconds he had, he wondered what was going on, how this could have happened, what he could do, what the guidebook would tell him to do, the implications of the destruction of the Prospect Horizon. But his body froze up. He couldn't bring himself to grasp the intensity of what was going on. As he got flung back from the source of the explosion, he shut down, closing his eyes...

It took King about 2 minutes to regain control of his body. He looked around at the space-debris, the ruins of the station. He couldn't tell where he was, but he was between two large pieces of rubble. Next to him, a dead body floated. Jeremiah wanted the throw up, but instead he had to survive. 

His scientific mind immediately began to question what had happened. How could the explosion began? It must have been fueled by the Hydrogen. It was stupid to use such a reactive element as a source of power, but that couldn't be changed now. The Prospect Horizon became the new Hindenburg.

""Does anyone receive me?"" Jeremiah heard over the coms. It was Ellie's voice. At least one of the team apart from him had survived. Jeremiah suddenly began to think of his own chances of surviving. If Ellie is alive, then he has a chance. He'd be helpless on his own.

""I hear you, Ellie,"" King whispered, still unmoving. ""Where are you?""

Jeremiah began using his thruster pack to move away from the rubble he was between. He finally got a look at what was left of the Prospect Horizon. It was completely devastated. It was all gone.</div>"
18444,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-10 17:03:00,BigPapaBelial,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Neil started to put his suit on, listening to Ellie as she went through her pre-walk briefing. He nodded and smiled, he'd been out on a few walks in his time. He knew what he's doing. He would keep an eye on everyone as best he could. There as the safety tech after all. And back up on the actual maintenance they had to do. He held his helmet it under his arm, ""Quick safety announcement, Ellie has last word. She's the boss. But I am the last word on safety. You do something stupid, and I can tell you to buzz off back to the airlock and back inside. I've never lost someone on a space walk. Never had any on drift off and have to go and get them from free float. I'm within 2 years of retirement. Don't break my record now.""

Sometime later the airlock began to cycle. Everyone suited up, ready to go out, oxygen running, glare shields set. The thruster packs for this walk distributed. Neil Stienhauer has purposefully placed himself at the rear of the column atleast for now until they reach their objective at which point he'd come up to help. But atleast back here he'd be able to watch everyone traverse the distance there. As the airlock opened and they slipped out into the void he called out to every as a reminder, ""There are handholds on the station. Use those first before going free float. Push and pull yourself along, it's way safer then kicking off something and floating. You have no idea where you're going to go if you mis-time a push.""

Then a flash, there is no sound in space. But there is pressure, radiation and light. And it was the light that hit him first.

A few minutes later Neil Patrick Stienhauer opened his eyes. He'd been knocked out? What the hell knocked you out in space? He's drifting spinning slowly on his back, he could only see the dark void out beyond. He coughed a little. And looked up, that wasn't right. He had been clipped to a handrail moments before. Which had been attached to a shaded section of the station. But now all that's there is the handrail.

He turned and got his first look of the remains of the station. He'd been drifting it seems after whatever tore it apart. He floated there for awhile just looking. little blooms of sparks and flame from this or that destroyed section could be seen. It's tragic. And he figured for that first little bit that he's alone. He'd been thrown clear, was everyone else as lucky? Was he the last person left alive? Then he heard it, ""Does anyone receive me?"" ""I hear you Ellie."" Two separate voices. He heaved a glad sigh then keyed into that com line, ""Ellie? Who else is that? King?"" He hit his booster to get him closer to the hulk, ""What the hell just happened?"" He cut the thrust after a short 2 second burst, to get him moving towards the remains of the station at the least.</div>"
18445,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-10 17:49:00,TheUnknowable,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When the download was complete, Makoto radioed his partner.  ""Ok, looks like everything's fine in here. You can come back in and help me with the printer upgrades.""

""Roger that, Houston."" the man said mockingly.  ""returning to airlock.""

While Rodriguez made his way back towards the ship's airlock, Makoto pushed the crated 3-d printer from the science module's docking port to the inner ring manufacturing module.  The ship was a series of stacked rings, with the outer ring being habitation, the inner ring being for work, and the central pillar around which it was built being a series of tanks for the ship's fuel and water.  The connectors between the inner and outer rings and the core could also have water automatically pumped into it in order to balance the load while they were spinning.

Halfway through constructing the device, he heard Rodriguez over the Comm.  ""Entering the airlock.""  A few seconds later, though, the ship shuddered, causing him to hit his head on a hand hold, knocking him out.

When he came to, he noticed the alarms, and the faint vibration of positioning thrusters firing, stopping the ship's tumble.  ""Rodriguez, are you there?""  When he didn't get a response, he quickly made his way to the bridge, where he pulled up the internal camera from the airlock.  He saw a tether tieing something to the inside of it, so he tilted the camera, hoping that Rodriguez was merely knocked out.  His hopes were dashed, however, when he saw a damaged suit with a red substance all over the visor.  When the suit had breached, it must have vacuum dessicated Rodriguez.  Makoto could only hope that he was dead before it happened.

He panned around the airlock to see if it was damaged, and was once again disappointed to see a piece of metal imbedded in the seal.  While he might be able to fix it, it would leak like a sieve until it was fixed, and air was too valuable to waste.   He'd have to find another way outside in order to repair it.

Seeing that the diagnostic systems were offline, he quickly rebooted it.  The second it was online, though, more alarms started to sound.  ""Danger."" the ship's voice said. ""atmospheric breaches detected.""  He quickly put on his gloves and helmet, then had it run the O2 content sequence while he grabbed a patch kit.

After a tense few minutes, he check the screen on a nearby console and was glad to see that the yellow sections were starting to turn green as pressure returned to them.  Many of the sections, including two thirds of the habitat modules, were gone, though he did have the medical and science bays from the station still attached.  Quickly checking his resources, he saw that the situation was fairly dim.  Firing the VASIMR positioning thrusters had used up most of his hydrogen reserves.  Without a way onboard to generate more, the solar panels hadn't been installed yet, he'd have to conserve power as much as he could.  He quickly switched to minimum power mode and scanned the radio channels for traffic.  While he found a few reports of the explosion coming from Earth, what most interested him was the exchange coming in on one of the EVA suit channels.

As soon as he found an opening, he activated the radio on that channel.  ""This is VG engineer Makoto Ito on board the Mars ship, looking for survivors.  Can anyone hear me?""</div>"
18446,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-10 18:46:00,Lord Pie,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Viktor kitted up somewhat still in an ‘autopilot’ mode as his mind still focused on the possible problems ahead and he combated them each with another thought, the mental argument raging within him as he silently continued to fit himself into the suit. He snapped away from his thoughts as Ellie spoke, focusing on her somewhat calming tone as she talked them through the EVA and what to expect, her confidence and almost routine nature reassuring him as it had every time he’d found himself in this situation. A moment later Stienhauer added his own somewhat reassuring speech, reminding them to be safe above all else, not that Viktor needed reminding, he’d be clinging to every hand-hold he could and avoiding letting go of the station as if his life depended on it.   

He took a few deep calming breaths as Fabio moved towards him and assisted him with the final few steps of getting his suit on, the final piece being to lock his helmet into place once he’d arranged his earpiece and ensured that everything else was secure and ready to go, even going as far as to double check each critical element almost unnecessarily checking, Fabian suppressing a slight smirk as he fitted the Russian’s helmet on and patted the top before giving him an enthusiastic thumbs up before he moved on to check the next team member. He breathed deeply again, the slightly off taste of the suit’s oxygen reminding him again of the last few times he’d done this and how everything had gone smoothly as it could have. This time would be no different, or so he reassured himself again and again. 

---

As he stood floating in the airlock Viktor was reminded again of how clumsy he felt in these suits, as if no gravity wasn’t bad enough to begin with. He again focused on Ellie’s voice and he closed his eyes as the pressure continued to drop and they got closer and closer to them moment where they’d need to move outside of the station and move across to where the repairs needed doing. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Okay, people; the plan is simple. We've got a faulty set of solar panels on the side of the Greenhouse, and while we're at it, we're going to also tinker with a plating on the roof of the station, and re-seal it. There's another two layers below, but this skin needs to be rebound. Hence the reason we've got tools, gents. King, I want you to have minimal effort on this mission- you stay back, and stay clamped into something solid. You've got karabiners attached to the core of your suit, clip them when need be to the kink points along the side. Use minimal thrust; use only when necessary, people. You know precisely the Safety concerns. Neil will keep an eye out on us, and him, myself and Viktor will conduct the engineering work. If we need help, Jeremiah, we'll call you over. Act on my command. You look like it's your first time for real. It's a surreal feeling, trust me.""</span>

As the airlock door opened to reveal both the earth and the inky blackness surrounding it his stomach once more lurched and he wished he could wipe the sweat from his brow already. Following Ellie and King he moved himself out towards using the handle, the first karabiner clip just before him making him feel a little better as he attached himself. <span class=""bb-i"">‘Just like last time’</span> he said to himself finally unclenching his body a little. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Okay, King, I want you to continue following me. Dylatov, Steinhauser, you move along the side, down towards the solar panel. Remember, don't drift, and since slow is smooth, smooth is steady. Calm.""</span> came Ellie’s calm voice once more, again her tone reassuring him as he finally began to focus on the work ahead of him over the risks involved. Turning to follow her instruction Viktor glanced downwards towards the solar array and prepared to make his next move carefully, unclipping himself a moment before he steadily hopped slightly with the tiniest of pushes to move to reach the next one. At that moment something happened, an almost blinding flash from the corner of his vision hitting him a brief moment before he felt suddenly like all control was whipped away from him as he suddenly felt a colossal force acting against him as he heard garbled shouts of panic through his headset, realising that he was shouting as well. A moment later he was hurtling somewhere, so fast he could hardly make sense of anything other than blurs within his vision before he briefly lost consciousness, his head screaming at him until the last moment. 

---

 His eyes again suddenly opened, instantly he felt panic shoot through him as all he saw was darkness with the blurry twinkling of distant stars, a vast array of nothingness before him spinning around and around at speed. He panted and started to hyperventilate as he began to flail around feeling nothing around him at all, what the fuck had happened and where was he, where was the station, those were the first panicked thoughts that shot into his mind. His heart pounded as he remembered what was now clearly an explosion, suddenly the worse things he could possibly think rushing into his mind. 

<span class=""bb-i"">‘I’m dead, I’m dead!’</span> he screamed internally as he scanned around trying to see anything at all, even the earth missing from what he could see to begin with. He didn’t even consider the bigger implications to start with, but after what must have been only about thirty seconds he started to calm down slightly as he realised that he was still alive at least for the moment and he would need to pull himself together if he wanted even the slightest chance of keeping it that way. Calming his breathing as best he could he realised tears were streaming down his cheeks as he tried focus on what he could actually see. 

<span class=""bb-i"">‘Okay okay’</span> he thought frantically before his more logical side finally kicked in, actually thinking for the first time. He realised he must be spinning with some force and he quickly started to feel dizzy with the realisation  as he squinted and tried to make out what some of the blurring shapes before him were. The earth itself was the first thing he identified, it being quite large and difficult to miss as the gentle glowing hue of blues and greens stared up at him. With his gloved hands he reached down to his toolkit and felt for the bulkiest item he could, his fingers closing around the Pistol Grip tool he’d brought before he unclipped it with his other hand. The whole process took a painfully long time as he continued to twirl around and around wildly before he finally pulled it up to his chest and breathed a moment of relief however short-lived it was, knowing he’d likely only have one chance to stabilise himself. At that moment his earpiece crackled slightly, a few brief warbled noises coming through to him. 

“Hello!? Hello!!” he shouted before a moment realising he was speaking Russian, swearing angrily several times before he switched back to English and repeated himself in a slightly calmer manner. Only silence answered him and he wondered if whatever had happened had damaged his radio, that or perhaps he was too far away from the station now for it to be of any use. Of course it was also possible that everyone but he was dead, but he ignored those thoughts as he desperately clinged to hope that it wasn’t the case. 

Still breathing heavily with his heart pounding he started to pay as much attention as possible to the direction of his spinning, no easy task with little to use as a frame of reference and his HUD apparently not displaying any longer. Sweat was stinging his eyes as he waited until he was sure he was certain, knowing that he’d have very few chances to get this right, his life hanging by less than a thread at this moment. Reaching backwards slowly with the Pistol Grip tool he hurled it with all of his strength in the opposite way to that which he was spinning, trying to wait for the perfect moment to do so before he finally did. The effect was remarkable as his spin slowed right down as the tool hurtled away into the nothingness around him, a few moments of stunned disbelief falling over him as his eyes readjusted. “Fucking yes!” he shouted enthusiastically as the earth before him stopped spinning wildly and he finally began to regain some composure of where he was. A few moments later his enthusiasm disappeared completely as he turned slowly and the remains of the station came into view and again he had to hold down a feeling of vomit as his stared in disbelief at what he could see. 

What was left of the station was hardly a shell of its former self, the greenhouse and habitation areas almost completely gone with only few bits of wreckage gently drifting, including the SpaceX craft that he could see several parts of, most of it drifting towards the earth with a good portion of what had once been his home so to speak. Tears again began to well in his eyes as he realised now he was as good as dead, drifting alone and cold in the darkness of space until he either ran out of oxygen or some piece of debris tore through him, the thought that so many others being already dead barley registering for him at the moment. For a few moments he lost hope and screamed as loud as he could, swearing again and again in Russian as he cursed the station, space and even cursed himself for ever coming up here at all. His voice began to crack as he panted and fought back his tears, suddenly realising how pathetic he was being despite the situation.  As he completed another rotation and the station came back into his view he saw that some sections of the station looked like they might still be there somewhat intact, though he knew they’d probably be seriously damaged if not completely destroyed. 

His radio again crackled slightly and he spent a good few moments shouting into it frantically for someone, anyone to answer him. As his mind raced over and over he started to think about what he could do, if anything at all. He soon came to the conclusion that without assistance he would be lost to space, his worst nightmare come true as he had always feared, and without a radio he wouldn’t be able to do anything to prevent it. The only thing he could think of was to create more force that would get him moving back towards the station, instead of drifting away like he was at the moment. He frantically began to paw at the toolkit again, trying to reach anything else that might be big enough to do the trick. He grew frustrated as he first threw the next biggest thing, his handheld temperature sensor, but it seemed to have little to no effect on his direction. He swore and wracked his brain for anything else he could do, again twisting and turning as he tried to look down at the suit to see what else he had. He caught site of the American flag on his shoulder and for a moment he lost his cool once more, cursing again and again, this time directing it at America as if it were somehow responsible for his situation. Suddenly his gloved hand made contact with the small torch that was embedded into the suit and another idea struck him. Again breathing deeply he started to flash the light towards the station each time he spun to face it, trying his best to spell out ‘SOS’ in morse code – though he barely had time to do so each time he rotated to face the station. It started to again give him a brief glimmer of hope as he prayed that one of the team had made it and still had a functioning thrusters pack, as well as being willing to risk everything to retrieve him from his almost certain fate. He swallowed hard as he started to doubt his chances, knowing that if it was him clinging to what was left of the station with a thruster pack that he’d never be able to achieve such a feat, though he whispered to himself over and over “Come on Ellie, Stienhaue, King – anyone... <span class=""bb-i"">please</span>”.</div>"

But worst of all, she knew Viktor was out in the open. They were alive, and just- and somehow, she felt good that they were alive. But even worse about their situation, no less, and it was anarchy, as she looked out, spotting King and Stienhauser. She even picked up the sound of a EVA engineer, Makoto, on the Mars ship. But the sight of Dylatov was the scariest one. He was drifting. No thruster pack. And she barely made out that tiny refelction of torchlight, a broken SOS signal that seemed to just be visible.
""Fuck."" She said to herself, as she looked around, heavy breathing, as she then bounded off. It was a strong movement, a real bound into the abyss, as she drifted, keeping a stable position as she moved to him. She had no idea of how far he was, just that it had to be him, not a shimmering piece of metal. And she would get him.
""Thank Christ you're alive. Stienhauser, King, get yourselves to Engineering, or something stable. Get inside the craft, the outside is going to be shrapnel ridden when it starts finding itself attracted. I'm going to get Viktor, he's going to drift otherwise. Just get inside, and wait out. Makoto, I hear you clear, you're on the polar opposite of our line in the station, at the Mars station if you're where I think you are. Just hold there. Viktor, just hang on, keep waiting- I see you."" She said, as she knew that was going to have to risk this, and she knew it would be bad. The Canadian and the Australian would be fine to get back, but Viktor, he'd die. And she knew that they would need him, as well as the fact that she was his crew. She wouldn't let him die, and get out of her sight now. The HUD was playing about, and the identification system wasn't working, hardly to her surprise, but no less, this was a time she wished it did. Finding Viktor's light was impossible, though it was just distinctive to her eye. She gave one thruster boost, as she came closer, and closer, making his suit out as she came in.

She collided with him hard, bumping off as Ellie grabbed his shoulder, wrapping her arm around his, almost spinning as she thrustered off, pushing back, the momentum pushing them back towards the station, aware that he was now holding onto her.
""Hang on!"" She yelled, as they floated back, the distance between them and the station considerable. She kept a hold of him, aware that it was easier than most things back on Earth to do- that is, lugging a Russian, in a full EVA suit. It was horrifyingly perilous, but Ellie let it take over her, that she had to get him back, and knew that above all, that there was no way that they were losing him. It was worth the risk to get her, and she knew that she was confident in movement in space, compared to the others. Maybe Stienhauser could move to get him, but she had seen it, and she was fetching him. And Ellie knew that she took care of her crew. This was an extenuating circumstance, and her heartbeat ran almost double, hitting 200. But you had to deal with it, and simply freezing wasn't an option. She'd been out enough, and perhaps Viktor had at least had the initiative to think. But with his arm coupled up around her arm, the two were coming back, and back to station. She couldn't see the others, but right now, knew that they'd find each other. They had thruster packs. Bits were falling apart, the station was almost severed into two, with the Engineering section floating off, though it was keeping a vague pace with the rest of the Mars machine and any fragments bolted to it. That was alive, at least. She had to think. Escape Pods. They were maybe a way out. But they could have been blown to bits, and were designed to be used in uncompressed situations. When compression was lost, they could work, but they relied on integrity of the parts they were within. And hence Ellie knew it wouldn't be a simple case of getting down. Re-Entry was impossible with any part of this station. Maybe the Mars machine, but that wasn't a hope in hell. Even the SpaceX craft had been blown apart, and it was re-entering now, the whole structure falling down. There was no reason chasing it- even if it had an re-enterable module, it was going to be too far away. No, they were stuck here. In the wreck.

She thursted lightly, but still impacted hard against the station, bounding off as she held onto him, by his hand as they somewhat echoed off the wall. She grabbed a rail and held on tight, as she looked downwards, to the Earth, almost reminding her in a tormenting way. They were going berserk, perhaps in total shock that this was happening. And even if they could see Ellie Tavistock and Viktor Dylatov on the side of the craft, looking back at them, there was no way rescue was coming. Any load that would be sent up was twice weekly, and the SpaceX craft was one of them at the moment. So a launch would take almost two days, and as Ellie looked at her oxygen meter, she knew it wasn't worth it. Then she realized. It was red, and at the two hour mark. It had collapsed in it's duration, and was reporting error. She screamed mentally, as she looked to Viktor.

""My oxygen feed's been knocked up. I'm pissing it away."" She said, cursing, with a bated breath, as she let him hang onto the rail, as she barely moved forward, slow and almost horrifed at the thought. She didn't know if the knock now had done it, or if it only reported now. But she had lost two hours of oxygen, and right now, it was going towards the hazardous area. She had one hour, fifty-five minutes left, and that was at the rate that it was going. She could easily lose the whole supply at any moment, and hence, made her movement almost slow, as she was slow to speak, thinking.
""We need to get inside. It won't make any difference to my supply."" She said, almost knowing full well. She had saved Viktor, but now, due to the nature of the impact with him wrapped around her arm, it had made a significant impact on her current oxygen levels. Perhaps it was a worthwhile sacrifice. She was scared, scared that she might die. But at least she'd do it knowing she was helpless. She had to fight now, Ellie told herself. Find some oxygen, some for the rest of the crew too. Grabbing the airlock rail, she moved past the severed door, and where they had been moments before. Somehow, Ellie could only think that she'd be able to let 

She drifted slowly, moving through the smashed open door, bits of floating water and paper littering the area, as she avoided it, moving slowly and surely. Ellie didn't want to think about what was next, but knew that somewhere in here, the other two would have made it safely. And if she remembered rightly, there weren't many escape pods in Engineering. They were mainly in habitation, and that was just in pieces now. This was unstable enough as it was, swinging about, just a loose piece that was left. They had to find oxygen of some sort, and while Engineering was going to be what you would consider a likely place, it wasn't going to be enough. Most of the store was gone, and what there was left, Ellie knew wouldn't last. She moved through to the next segment, the sight of a jammed door in front being a significant hazard, as she looked back to Viktor, floating over as she took her toolkit out.

""We need to open it up. It's a module to module door, not an airlock. I can cut it, but I'll lose about a fifth of my fuel. Still, whatever is on the other side, we might need. I don't see anything we can use here, it's all fucking loose."" She said, looking to Viktor, as she moved down, cutting the large blockage out, moving only a little bit at a time to slice the door's hinge, which quickly collapsed. The cutter was extremely powerful, and since this wasn't a seal, or an airlock- it was merely jammed, so a cutter could do it, taking about four minutes or so to do. It took a while, but it wasn't too tricky. But no doubt, they'd have to figure out alternatives for airlocked doors that were severed in other places, if Ellie wasn't so needing to get behind this door to the rest of the Engineering modules. She finished up, before turning behind, checking who was there. This wasn't a time for words. They all knew what to ask, and it was something Ellie could only respond.

""We need to push on. We need to get to Makoto, the Mars ship could have supplies we could use. We need to salvage whatever we can in fuel and oxygen here- but I don't think there's much left. Getting to there means going back out into what's left of habitation and the Sciences area, and I suggest we wait till it stabilizes. I've got an hour and forty minutes. It could get worse. I don't know what happened here, but no doubt, there are no survivors. Could be a fault in the SpaceX ship, or in Habitation's hydro-oxy fuel cells, it can develop. The fucking system is meant to be foolproof...but they didn't fucking account for this burden."" She said, rather coldly and aimlessly, just knowing she couldn't respond entirely. Her suit was intact, but that oxygen system was going to deplete, and no doubt, she was going to need oxygen far quicker than the rest. There was no system of transfer, and any supply that was left, she'd need to probably use more to even give around three hours. No doubt, whilst every minute felt like a silent, totally quiet hour, it was going to take time. Everything, every touch or contact that she made, Ellie knew wasn't going to be very audible. All she could really hear was vague radio chatter, and her crew's radios. That, and her own heavy, panicky breathing, and the noise of her suit's coolants. It was stomach churning, but Ellie had to block the fact that as if the team wasn't already in enough problems, she was going to die first. She had to keep it from her, the British astronaut aware that right now, they had to act, and fast, to find oxygen and any pods in engineering. 
""Sweep out across the modules...whatever you find, grab and keep to hand. Look for oxygen and any fuel that we can salvage- I doubt we'll find a lot, but search any corner."" She said, as the whole section juddered, and Ellie grabbed a hold of a rail inside, holding on as it shook violently, before it stopped. Suddenly, almost the whole section behind them fell apart, almost completely cracking as the structure disintergrated, and Ellie held on, aware that it was dropping away in places, as the whole structure felt like it was held by string.
""Jesus..."" She said quietly, as she moved up, going upwards through the module, looking around as she knew that they had to spread out, and look around now.</div>"

And almost started swearing when he saw her go rocketing off. He swore and nearly took off after her. But by the time he had pushed himself off Ellie and remarkably Viktor were on their way back. He boosted back to the station or well the remains of the station and crawled hand over hand to where they had landed. As soon as he reached them he sighed a sigh of relief, ""Well...this walk has gone well hasn't it?"" He clamped himself to one of the handholds with a karabiner, and when he heard that she was bleeding O2 he winced, ""Well we need to get inside then."" He followed along in the rear of the group as they crawled towards the junction door. And helped as once it was cut open, pulling on it to open it.

Once inside he planted himself against a wall for a short time. Looking around and trying to get some processing done. The walk had started, the maintenance began, the explosion, needing to get back into the station. Their objective is to find supplies and get to the Makoto. all of it is happening so fast.

As he leaned there he nodded. Safety would mean an escape pod, and dropping to the surface, soon at that. Getting rescued and perhaps just perhaps getting a rescue ship up to those that stayed behind, because let's face it, there are going to be people left behind. Those pods only carried two people. Maybe three if you're daring and can slip into it safely.

Quietly, silently, he made a pact with himself, he was the least likely to have need to go back immediately...he'd stay behind. Of course that all depended on if they survived long enough to get to a pod and if the SpaceX ship out there is okay.

He gave a push off the wall and began to search the pods he could reach, jimmying open an access hatch and crawling into one of the neighboring pods. Supplies, supplies. Air Canisters, fuel. Those were top of the list, food wouldn't do them squat with the time they had.</div>"
18449,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-15 22:18:00,TheUnknowable,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Makoto listened for an answer, but didn't here one, only radio chatter between them.  They must have heard him, though, as they were referring to him by name in their transmissions.  ""I'm running a bit low on spare oxygen over here, due to several hull breaches I had to seal."" he said over the radio.  ""I've got maybe a few hours worth if all of us are breathing it.  And because the atmosphere processors and algae growers weren't installed, I can only sequester CO2, not turn it back into oxygen.  If you could find some processors that would be good.  Algae would take to long to grow, so it's a long term thing only.  I also don't have a way to generate power to replenish my fuel reserves.  Extra fuel, including inert gas, would be nice, but if you can find any solar panels or RTGs, that would be even better.""

Once the transmission was done, he looked over a list of cargo and equipment he had on board.  Hopefully he could find something to solve his problems.  No escape pods, and the surface lander hadn't come up from the surface yet.  He hadn't drifted far from the station, though, so they shouldn't have any trouble coming over.  ""One last thing."" he said, opening the channel once more. ""the air lock seal was damaged.  You'll have to use the medical or science bay as a makeshift airlock to come aboard.""</div>"

Ellie moved up, going through where she had been just an hour ago, drifting quietly and calmly. She moved up, looking behind to Neil, before the noise of that bang then echoed even louder, from the bar that she held onto. It felt like then, it occured. Engineering split into two, and Ellie could barely wrap her hand around a bar, grabbing Neil with her left, as she threw him upwards, as the whole structure below almost completely caved in. The door had perhaps been the last strongpoint- now, it had fallen apart. And it was the sudden horror of realizing where Viktor and Jeremiah were. Ellie was speechless. They were down there, in the furthest end of the station, just to the left of their airlock. The force had been explosive, and even with King's thruster pack, they'd die. She exhaled hard, aware that they were now outside, as Ellie looked to King, thrusting upwards into the Engineering area, or at least, what was left of it. She threw herself past a small door, and felt Neil go past, sealing it semi-shut to at least keep whatever integrity was left. The whole structure felt like it was falling apart, and Ellie knew they had lost any hope of finding the bulk of material in Engineering that was left. She drifted past a pair of claw arms, for repairs, and quickly stabilized herself out, moving slow, breathing slowly as she was almost totally speechless. She couldn't say anything, she knew that Dylatov and King, were as good as dead now. She had a dying oxygen supply. Soon, Stienhauser and Makoto would be alone. And Ellie felt sick from it, the knot in her stomach tightened.
""Fuck..."" She said, looking to Neil, grabbing his hand, aware he was close, feeling cold and warm inside as she clambered past a smashed arm.
""They're going to die...that was a decompression of whatever was left, it's going to be thrown out of orbit. No thruster can save you from that."" She said, moving slowly, as she reached up, moving to a cabinet, opening it up to it's empty sight. She then moved through, almost exited in a way, as she moved through the next module, quickly taking off a cover marked ""Emergency"". Then she was shocked to see what she saw. Where the escape pod was, there was an enormous crack, almost the size of a hand's width, by the side of the escape pod, the black ball shattered.
""No way...bollocks!"" She yelled, looking at it, almost feeling like she could kick it, but it wouldn't achieve little. She exhaled, knowing she had to hold herself together.

""We need to get out of Engineering...that was a two man pod, we need to get to where Makoto is. I'm thinking if we salvage what supply he has, and we try and get into Medical, that seems fairly intact. But we'll need to cross Habitation. It's going to be risky."" She said, looking back to him, breathing a little harder from her anger towards it, sweat pouring down her right now. This was death, this was going to be the way she died, and no matter how drilled she was, that was going to remain a fact.
""Makoto, this is Tavistock...we've lost two of our men, Engineering is falling to pieces. We're going to try going through Habitation toward Medical, the last thing I can think of is that Logistics has something left in terms of escape pods, but there's no way in hell that we're going to survive long if we go direct."" She said, looking down to Neil, as they approached a completely blown out section, held by barely a few metal linkages.
""Okay...Neil, I need you to spool out your rope to me, and try and cross. We cross this and the linkages break, I don't want to waste fuel on boosting away, so only one of us should need to. I'm at about half levels right now."" She said, aware that the vertigo was scary- they were facing towards the darkness of the stars, Engineering pointing away from the Earth. It was strange, but somehow, Ellie knew that that things were not normal now. Things didn't have their momentum stopped, they kept going, and in this case, it was just knowing that they needed security.</div>"

He looked over, seeing one whole connector start to sheer away. He lashed out and grabbed a handhold as the entire section rumbled and tumbled abit. He threw himself upwards making for the connector back into the area they came from. HE made it just on the heels of Ellie. Twisting as soon as he's through and sealing helping Ellie to seal the lock. He looked through the small window looking back through it, watching the remains of the module drift. He could see Victor and King floating away with it, both men tucked into balls to weather the storm of shrapnel and and debris as the module drifted and came apart.

Neil slammed his palm against the inside of the door, ""Fuck...fuck...FUCK! That's two more! What the fuck is happening up here? This place was designed to weather meteor storms. How the hell does the fuel packs go up? How the hell is this all happening?"" He took a couple of shallow breathes to try and calm himself. Fighting down the urge to take long deep breathes. He groaned, ""Whatever happens Ellie, we need to try and keep our heads. Makoto too...fucking hell eh...this is just too much to take in.""

As they made their way through the pods he kicked and guided himself along. Then grabbed a handhold as they came to the blown out section. He looked out into vacuum. He gulped, ""My god...this was...this was part of Medical wasn't it? Dear god...I almost expect Doc Johns to float around that far corner and ask if we're okay..."" He started to unspool one of the safety lines on his belt. Handing the end with the safety lock too Ellie, ""Okay, lock that off to something...and keep your eye and hand on it. It's strong enough that you'll be able to pull me back along it if need be. If it stays taut, I'm still going. If it goes slack...well you'll be on your own and you'll need to reach Makoto on your own Ellie girl..."" He smiled at her. Then swallowed, ""Okay...here we go."" He took a step then pushed, using the power of the kick to get him moving, wanting to save his thrusters as much as possible. He drifted out.

He cleared the ragged edge of the module, floating out into the sub-zero clear vacuum. He grit his teeth. Listening to the safety line spool out. His on board computer beeping as lines of measurements and code flashed across the inside of his face plate, ""I'm clear of the edge..."" He drifted on. His hand going to the thruster control. He kept going, giving himself a light boost to send him forward, ""The other side is one hell of a wreck..."" He gave himself another boost. Reaching out to bat a piece of debris out of the way, and then to push the burned and frozen body of young Jack Boyer, one of the med-techs. He winced, ""Boyer...I just floated by him..."" He could see the other module edge getting closer, ""Just a little further. Is that line tied off Ellie? I'm about to enter the other side. Use the line to bring you across. I'll tie the spool to a handhold. That will be stable enough to get you across."" He drifted closer.

He caught a handhold as he entered the shadow of the other side of the ragged tube. He grunted, then quickly tied the spool off to another handhold, ""Ellie...I'm across. Carefully come across. I'm not going to crack the lock until you get here. Be careful. Take it gentle. Tease your way across. Survival is more important.""</div>"

In 2041, the Prospect Horizon sits as the largest human-placed space station in orbit around the Earth. It has been there for the last four years, and houses a population of almost 300 scientists, technicians, astronauts and engineers, being comprised of the very best of humanity's achievements. It's a scientific station, but no less, has been put there for a good reason. In 2042, it is set to be the launch site for a return human mission to Mars, and has provided a huge volume of data of a community living in space. It has a strong future, and modules are being sent up, from countries such as Brazil, India, the ESA, NASA and Russian Space Agencies. It's an international hub, one that perhaps has proven to be the most unifying thing in humanity's history. A golden light in the sky, that shows what co-operation and a huge joint venture can do. While below the Prospect Horizon, the Earth still has a multitude of problems, the Prospect Horizon is a light to the future, to the next step in the human race's survival.

On the 5th of September, 2041, catastrophe struck the Prospect Horizon. The fragile station suddenly exploded, with explosions of the Hydrogen fuel detonating in almost each module of the station, with almost all crew killed instantly. The Solar Panels, as well as the Hydrolysis systems, power and all sources of structural integrity went out the window, and this was the end of that shining light, the future salvation that many saw above as being vaporized in a matter of seconds. All crew, lost.

Almost.

This RP will be set among the lucky handful, the group that happened to be wearing <a href=""http://cdn3.sbnation.com/assets/4026035/adrift.JPG"">EVA Suits</a> while they headed out for a simple engineering task, on the other side of The Greenhouse, Habitation. The stricken station has bits of it falling out of orbit, whilst other parts are simply shells- other sections still have useful segments to it left, and potentially, tiny areas where there remarkably is pressure. Because of it, quite literally, they may be the only survivors left, and they aren't going to survive very long if they wait around for rescue- if it's even coming from any station that exists. One of the team has a severely damaged spacesuit, and it is unknown if there are any parts of the Prospect Horizon that are still pressured, since oxygen levels are dipping. It's unknown if there's top-ups of oxygen that are still functional, if there's anyone else that survived, or even if there's any rescue coming. Radio comms are down. The survivors have three hours of oxygen, even if it is en route. Worst, they don't know if there any escape pods intact, and even so...will everyone out of the group survive when they find them?

Good good, all accepted. I would say that they'll all likely have more generic toolkits, such as for the mounting and demounting of screws, though cutters, thruster packs and the like are likely to be restricted to my character and one other. BTW, I should have mentioned this a little earlier- the suits do have in-built flashlights on the shoulder (though they're more engineering specification, for shining into dark corners, rather than for illuminating greater areas), a quite touch-screen friendly pair of gloves (they're bulky, but you could use a tablet with them, just about), as well as probably a quite vaguely general engineering kit- though more specialized tools such as cutters, wire splicers, and complicated multi-purpose drills are likely to be something on an Engineer's toolkit.</div>"

If you have something there, and it looks good, go ahead. So current character sitrep, a TLDR of characters if you will:

A British EVA Specialist
A Russian Engineer
An Austrlian Physicist
A Canadian Safety Tech

The RP won't be long, but I will say it will be very concentrated. It all takes place in the span of four hours- so any of the action that occurs likely will be flowing and continuous, before the end. Character death is a strong possibility for some- and after this last character, I'll probably shut off any more, since we've got enough people. 

I should make a reminder- I don't care for post orders in this, so long as it's vaguely everyone getting in a post. I want to see how it works- post orders can be useful, but sometimes hold up the RP. We'll see how it rolls. Oh, and if you quit the RP, either because of lack of interest or whatnot, I'll give your character a fitting death- just a heads up :D</div>"

So whoever wants that, they can have that. I was thinking about doing it to Ellie's, just not too sure how. It would be a case that it wouldn't be compromised, but say, an oxygen or resporitary system isn't working as it should, and basically, means that they're going to lose oxygen at a faster rate, or maybe be less able to move, perhaps. Not too sure on how to engineer it- but basically, it's a case that the suit is affaected, and it in turn, affects that character. Remember, your character didn't have a thruster pack either- and so you'll be reliant on either King or Steinhauser.</div>"
18473,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-09 23:00:00,Lord Pie,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Yeah, that sounds like a good idea - that maybe it happens to Ellie (unless any of the others particularly wanted to do that), as it could add quite a nice element, that she is trying to help the others, but possibly at the expense of her own time. Perhaps a small leak or something in the oxygen systems - like your breathing time remaining suddenly starts to go down quicker or something. 

Also a feel a tad like my lack of knowledge is letting my detail down a bit, but trying to research as much as possible. 

Perhaps Viktor comes too but is free floating somewhere, and attracts attention with a light on his suit or something - so a character with thrusters has to risk leaving the relative 'safety' of what's left of the station and 'aim' to get him without missing. I'd imagine the thrusters have a limited fuel capacity as well?</div>"
18474,Backdrifts (Space Survival RP),OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76221-backdrifts-space-survival-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-09 23:18:00,FourtyTwo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">I may add that as a future thing, thinking about it. It gets revealed perhaps, and would be an issue. No doubt, it could make a big difference- and definitely negate Ellie. I think that could work, for sure. 

Don't worry- I would just say, keep in mind that it's almost like it's own spacecraft. It's a pressurized environment, and it's described by some like a blimp- something being pumped full of oxygen, of course. 

And yeah, that can work. Maybe what occurs to Ellie is what happens when she goes out upon seeing him (to recover him), or perhaps the rest of the group further along? The thrusters wouldn't have much fuel, and as well as that, would be needing minute quantities. In theory, once you're moving, you're moving- hence why Ellie didn't want the team using them much, only if they needed to bridge a gap. But more would be wasted recovering Viktor, so again, tensions flare...it will get far worse than this.</div>"

The RP as you've seen so far will be a little more concentrated than most RPs, due to the short period of time it takes place throughout- and there are plenty more twists and turns left.

The reason for it is that I don't want to let characters die too quickly because it effectively nulls your involvement right to the end of the RP, because your character is effectively removed.

These gloves's ability to muffle chakra also make them unable to be affected by seals. Kobuto can carry seals on them without himself being affected. The index finger of these gloves are cut off to allow him to use jutsu.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> Jade Books of Heaven: Creation Jeweled Spear<br/><img src=""http://privatelibrary.typepad.com/.a/6a01156f7ea6f7970b0134888f8924970c-800wi""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> The item for which Kobuto is most known for. It is a part of a series of books that are connected together.<br/><br/>The book draws in chakra from a radius of half a kilometer, in proportion to it's strength, siphoning it in. The amount stolen is minuscule, and due to being proportional, is rarely ever fatal, as it will always leave a portion behind.<br/><br/>The cover of this book is hard as stone, and it's chakra draining amount is much higher in direct contact. Without special gloves, it can drain a person of most of their chakra in minutes. This draining on contact also renders it resistant to chakra enhanced blades, as their chakra is stolen on contact.<br/><br/>The pages of this book are excellent conductors of chakra as well, making them ideal for seals. Any book in the series whose first 30 pages written upon will have the writing appear across all books in the series. The pages can be erased via chakra.<br/><br/>The book itself consumes chakra passively, meaning there's not a 'constant' charge between battles for Kobuto to draw on, but he can steal chakra from it gathered midbattle.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon or Item:</span> (<sub></sub> <span class=""bb-i"">''</span>).<br/><img src=""""/><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span></div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Combat Data"" type=""button"">Combat Data [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Special Traits</span></span><br/>Average Chakra Pool<br/>Average Endurance<br/>Average Strength<br/><br/>Versatile Earth Style Techniques<br/>Very Intelligent<br/>Physically Fast<br/>Talented in Barrier Jutsu<br/>Talented in Seals<br/>High Chakra Control<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Techniques:</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Canon Jutsu</span><br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Canon Jutsu"" type=""button"">Canon Jutsu [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release%3A_Hiding_Like_a_Mole_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique</a>:<br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Double_Suicide_Decapitation_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique</a>: <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Hiding_in_Rock_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Hiding In Rock Technique</a>: <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Subterranean_Voyage"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage</a>: <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Underground_Projection_Fish_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique</a>: <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Tunnelling_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Tunneling Technique</a>:<br/>**He's like a fish going through rock if ya haven't guessed.<br/>__________<br/><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth-Style_Wall"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Earth Style Wall</a>: Kobuto's wall is engraved with Ionic Order<br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth_Flow_Spears"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Earth Flow Spear</a>: <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Earth_Flow_Wave"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release: Earth Flow Wave</a>:<br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Rock_Gun_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Earth Release<img src=""/smilies/Rock.gif""/> Gun Technique</a>:<br/>_________ <br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Finger_Carving_Seal"" rel=""nofollow"">Finger Carving Seal</a>: With Kobuto's excellent chakra control, he's able to use this to create seals at high speeds.

There only remain thin slits for his eyes and the village's symbol on the forehead. Genmyou's true is one of the village's mysteries, with not even his closest allies having ever seen him without his mask, hood, and cloak.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">History:</span></span><br/><span class=""bb-i"">--All information regarding Genmyou's origins going past his life as a young man have been expunged from all known records. As such, the following is all that remains recorded of Genmyou's origins--</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">...he faded back into the larger scope of the world and was at first a kind of mercenary nin. He travelled and exchanged knowledge and living expenses for any task he was assigned. As he did this he was able to acquire a rather sufficient sum of intel on various jutsu, clans, and rumors of the time. He continued to expand his knowledge and skill set until he struck gold. He heard a rumor about a clan based in Kumogakure, this was the first time he had heard of the so called Antare Clan. With a background such as his, it was hard for him to pass up and so he began to travel to cross the continent and reach the Antare clan's base of operations. At the time he did not know many, if any, of the secrets regarding the clan, but he did know they were allegedly the only rivals in fuinjutsu to the uzumaki clan. It took him a year or two of travel, due to many stops, missions, and such on the way but he eventually reached the country of lightning. Seeming rather suspicious due to his garb, as even at that time he possessed what shinobi see him in today, he was eventually spotted by one of the Antare clan's outposts and watched closely there after. As his renown grew, Genmyou eventually became known as 'The Shade of Clarity'. This title was blatantly ironic due to the unknown nature of his appearance and the difficulty that it was to track him and figure out his exact actions in combat. Regardless to this he began to be a nuisance when his missions began to conflict with nin from Kumogakure causing the shinobi assigned to come back empty handed or the like. Assassination attempts were made, but they could never track him down, and when they did they were met with clever non-fatal traps. Finally the aged raikage of the time requested the assistance of the Antare clan, the accepted, having been watching as a neutral part for some time.<br/><br/>They were easily able to corner 'The Shade of Clarity' but they too found themselves in a difficult situation. Even mid battle he was able to figure out who they were and who had sent them. They soon found themselves outclassed in a very unique fashion, and with words and defensive tactics alone the 3 Antare clan members found themselves in such a disadvantage that they were grateful when The Shade offered them an arrangement. An envoy sent back to the raikage and another to the elders of the Antare clan, Genmyou successfully got his message across. Though the raikage seemed rather threatened and more than a little worried about allowing this 'shade' free reign he did so with the advice of the Antare in mind. The Antare clan elders on the other hand were not as relenting and so instead of simply allowing him into their ranks, an unknown variable as he was, they commissioned him for a series of missions while they attempted to retrieve intel on the shade's origins. They drew a blank, finding only sparse information of his travels and various mercenary exploits, nothing of any solid consequence...Shade of Clarity indeed.<br/><br/>After several months of the grueling missions Genmyou began to grow ever more impatient and with perfect timing, as it was intentional the Antare allowed him entrance. In the years following it became known that Genmyou had been officially adopted into the country of lightning's social ranks and was around jounin rank. Years passed, he studied, trained, combatted, completed missions for Kumogakure, and then when he felt he had learned as much as was immediately useful to him from the Antare, he departed. Traveling to <span class=""bb-i"">-data expunged-</span> Genmyou disappeared for almost a decade. Strangely every two weeks a mission would end up completed to the fullest and so it was thought that Genmyou had completed these, which he had. When he finally emerged from his recluse, Genmyou returned a changed man, a better man, and a stronger shinobi. He felt no need to test himself against the lesser nin of the jounin rank and he proceeded straight to the death bed of the to-be late raikage. Genmyou looked the man straight in the eyes, and the raikage commanded the two be left alone.<br/><br/>No complaints were made, a mask was removed, a promise made, an identity remained hidden to all but one. The Raikage died only a year later and upon his death, his will was revealed, Genmyou - The Shade of Clarity, was to be named the second Raikage. Some of the village elders were disgruntled, but they were silenced by the will of the people and the guidance of the Antare clan. All was well, Genmyou became the kage of Kumogakure and has been as such for 10 years now. His age is unknown, his true appearance hidden, his identity null, and his skill renowned throughout. He is a man to fear, to trust, to avoid, to approach, he is all of these things, but above all else he is a efficient leader and an elusive enigma.</div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span></span> Genmyou is versatile in all activities he takes part in, this traits stands out. His versatility is mixed just as much with the air of intrigue that seems to surround him as a person. He is secretive, intelligent, serious, but not without humor. To him matters of the village, of battle, and anything remotely regarding his past are things to be given attention and a calm mindset above all others. In this way he is protective in his own way, seeming to have a kind of endearment to Kumogakure. Generally he tends to be fairly good-natured, and though he can sometimes be caught up the affairs of his village, he is never truly stressed. It has often been commented, and admired, that despite Genmyou's air of mystery and his rather plentiful responsibilities he never seems overwhelmed or burdened. In this way he is considered charismatic and sometimes even tends to use this trait to his advantage. This charisma also carries over to one of his rather well known mannerisms, corrections and wisdom. Essentially, Genmyou gets a kick out of messing with his adversary's mind while in battle without the use of genjutsu.<br/><br/>This reveals another trait of his for while he is not devious, he is exceptionally crafty in both a social environment and on the battlefield. He is loyal to those he makes his allies, but not to the point of blindness. He is the kind of man who will do what he must even if he knows others may not like it. When brought down to the bare essentials he is a survivalist, a former nomad, and a scholar. Genmyou has an avid love for knowledge and in his free time he finds it extremely rewarding and enjoyable to read, exchange knowledge, or even get into a philosophical discussion or two. In another light, Genmyou enjoys debate and conversation, but he seems to shy away from arguments. When put into a situation where a verbal exchange of negative theme is involved he tends to act as a mediator or he will simply remove himself from the situation until the participants are willing to discuss the issue(s) reasonably. This shows that Genmyou is indeed a very calm individual with an incredibly high tolerance for so called 'bullshit' as it were. <br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVbuGYNhQAY"" rel=""nofollow"">Theme:</a> Two Steps From Hell - Mystical Beginnings</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Equipment"" type=""button"">Equipment [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Base Weapons &amp; Items:</span></span><br/>X explosive tags.<br/>X smoke bombs.<br/>X kunai<br/>X shuriken<br/>X wire<br/>X chakra reactive tags (blank).<br/>10 Barrier rods.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Foot Note:</span></span> His scrolls and tags react specifically to his chakra and the chakra effectively acts like ink.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Specialized Weapons &amp; Items:</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Item:</span> Chōkin kōgu(<sub>彫金工具</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Engraving Tool'</span>)<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A tool designed by Genmyou and members of the Antare clan, this pen-like tool works by transmuting chakra into a sort of <span class=""bb-i"">ink</span>, which can be directly inscribed upon specialized sealing paper. However, what makes the Chōkin kōgu a truly unique tool is the fact that it imbues chakra into the seal as it is created. As such, the more skilled the fuinjutsu practitioner and the more complex the seal, the more charge the seal will have. This is not the only boon to its use though as the <span class=""bb-i"">pen</span> does not just imbue chakra into the sealing paper, but actually engraves <span class=""bb-i"">empty space</span> that chakra is compelled to fill. This essentially means that, left alone, any seal created with this tool will draw chakra from its environment to fuel itself. Additionally, due to the multitude of fuinjutsu used in its creation and the specialized ones applied by Genmyou himself, it renders the kage immune to the effects of the seals constructed in this manner unless exceptions are written into those very seals. This is due to the fact that the pen, and its <span class=""bb-i"">ink</span> are designed to react uniquely to Genmyou's chakra meaning that if stolen, the device will not work in the hands of another and neither will the seals.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://www.ciar-roisin.net/photos/jp/SterlingVermeil-02.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Appearance</a></span><br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Item:</span> Kinko(<sub>金庫</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Repository'</span>).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> A special tome with the thickness of a single piece of paper, the Kinko is carried on Genmyou's person at all times. The tome is possible by way of space-time ninjutsu, effectively allowing it to have hundreds upon hundreds of pages without ever becoming larger or heavier as the pages are not stored within the book in a traditional fashion. This also means, that to access any given piece of information, an individual must have exceptional chakra control, and know the proper chakratic <span class=""bb-i"">codes</span> to input so as to find particular pages. While the book does have an index, it is encrypted in a code that very few understand. Genmyou teaches this code only to those he trusts most...and he is very picky about whom he trusts. This also means that burning the book, or any similar copies, in a person's possession will not actually destroy the rest of its pages, excluding the index.<br/><br/>The knowledge connected to these books is thought to be stored somewhere deep in the mountain upon which Kumogakure sits. Genmyou typically keeps the Kinko folded up on his person.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Item:</span> Inshō-shi(<sub>印象紙</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Impression paper'</span>).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Paper specialized for applying seals, Inshō-shi is designed to be exceptionally good at absorbing chakra. This makes it the ideal medium for the Chōkin kōgu, but also means it can be a useful tool in...other ways. The paper, while not fireproof, is capable of withstanding about the same heat as a human body without setting on fire, and is treated so that liquids simply fall off of it rather than adhering or being absorbed by its surface.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Item:</span> Chakra Conductive Gauntlets. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Though really not all that difficult to craft, Genmyou wears streamlined gauntlets on both hands which effectively ease the process of the fuin furidashi slightly. The gauntlets do this by reacting to his chakra when he channels it to his hands and forming a small field of condensed aura around his hands in order to conduct his jutsu. This can also assist with some of his raiton techniques and are very useful. Due to being gauntlets these can also be used to claw, since the fingers are rather sharp, as well as to block some blade attacks. He cannot use these to catch blades due to the fact that only the outsides of the gauntlets are metal while the insides -meaning palm and finger bottoms- are made of a softer material which also lines the metals on the top of the gauntlets.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Weapon:</span> Seigennashi no ei(<sub>制限なしの英</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Blade of the Unrestricted'</span>).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Often within its figurative sheath and hidden on his person, this blade is 4.5 feet long, weighing in at roughly 130 lbs to anyone attempting to wield it aside from Genmyou. Rather than the weapon being in a true sheath, it is sealed utilizing a modified generic seal, within the strap that would normally hold the weapon at his back. Regardless to this, Seigennashi no ei is a very unique weapon for it does not possess an affinity ability or some such foolishness. Instead, this weapon of unknown origin, is a blank slate for any kind of chakra that is channeled through it. This means that it can channel and carry any manner of jutsu within itself. This means that it seems to merely be an incredibly advanced chakra conductor. While this is true, the weapon is unique in that it can actually store techniques, which are channeled through it. However, it is limited to seven jutsu at any given time. Beyond this, the weapon, once attuned to its wielder, is rendered effectively weightless. Despite the efforts of many blade craftsman, chakra scholars, and fuinjutsu masters the cause of this effect remains out of reach and thus out of mind making it an enigmatic blade fit to its similarly mysterious wielder.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b""><a href=""http://i.imgur.com/AtorbFJ.png"" rel=""nofollow"">Appearance:</a></span> Includes his mask's appearance.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Item:</span> Gen'ei no konryuu(<sub>幻影の袞龍</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Phantom's imperial robes'</span>).<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Worn in every waking moment of Genmyou's life, this clothing is his normal attire. Despite the use of the word <span class=""bb-i"">normal</span> this garb is nothing of the sort. It is fire retardant, heat repelling, waterproof, and is durable to ridiculous levels. Strangely, the cloth never seems to take damage, even if Genmyou does, this leads one to believe that damage is transfered through the cloth but never actually damages it. This is true and is the work of fuuinjutsu being weaved in patterns onto the inside and outside of the robes. Additionally, the Gen'ei no konryou are conductive allowing him to conduct his 'raiton' techniques or pure chakra through them. The last notable property of this garb is its properties of concealment. Namely the robe distorts his chakra to the senses of doujutsu and sensor nin. This effectively means that unless the sensor nin is incredibly adept and has prime focus, they will receive a headache and be smoothly redirected around his location. Possessors of doujutsu have a hard time looking upon him as well, but are otherwise unaffected. Sharinga and Rinnegan are unaffected, whereas the Byakugan is effectively useless against it.</div></div><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Combat Data"" type=""button"">Combat Data [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Special Traits</span></span><br/>Genmyou is no normal individual and as such his chakra is incredibly unique. Not only is he incredibly difficult to sense even with doujutsu, his chakra's unique state tends to give sensory nin a headache and as such they tend to have a lot of trouble pinpointing his position. Additionally where his normal chakra openings would be, there are actually 3. His body seems capable of releasing chakra from many different places in comparison to a normal individual. Genmyou also appears to have a rather high chakra level in addition to being able to use shape manipulation much quicker than most. It should be noted that Genmyou is immune to his own lightning affinity (he can channel it through his body without being harmed) and that lightning jutsu of C rank or below will not cause him harm. Last of all he appears to be especially durable and is very quick on his feet. It should be taken into mind that Genmyou's specialties are firstly in fuinjutsu, secondly in kenjutsu(with a proficiency in defensive taijutsu), and thirdly in ninjutsu. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Kekkei Genkai:</span> Tukkumu shijun(<sub>突っ組む至純</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'To strive for Absolute purity'</span>).<br/><font color=""#303030"">Fuen Ametsuchi(<sub>敷衍 天地</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Amplification of Heaven and Earth'</span>)</font><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Clan:</span> Unknown.<br/><font color=""#303030"">Zoukasari.</font><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Appearing to modify any natural affinities that the inheritor possesses, but this is not it's sole capability. This kekkei genkai, known as Tukkumu shijun, appears to allow Genmyou advanced control over essentially all of his chakra's aspects. This has apparently altered his natural affinity as well as allowing him, due to extended research and training, to utilize 'pure' chakra. Due to his skill in fuuinjutsu he is capable of effectively programming this purified energy form with purpose utilizing seals and the like. His control over his chakra system is so great that he can willingly pure, fluctuate, speed up, or slow down the flow of chakra within his body to his will.<br/>=========================================<br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Techniques:</span></span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Canon Jutsu</span><br/><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Enclosing_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Fūnyū no Jutsu(Enclosing Technique)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Five_Elements_Seal"" rel=""nofollow"">Gogyo Fuin(Five Elements Seal)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Five_Elements_Unseal"" rel=""nofollow"">Gogyo Kaiin(Five Elements Unseal)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sealing_Technique:_Lion_Closing_Roar"" rel=""nofollow"">Fūinjutsu: Shishi Heikō(Sealing Technique: Lion Closing Roar)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Finger_Carving_Seal"" rel=""nofollow"">Shikoku Fūin(Finger Carving Seal)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Reverse_Four_Symbols_Sealing_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Ura Shishō Fūin(Reverse Four Symbols Sealing)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Soul_Detachment_Technique"" rel=""nofollow"">Konshin Betsuri no Jutsu(Soul Detachment Technique)</a><br/><a href=""http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Barrier_Gate_Five_Seals_Technique:_Castle_Closing_Eight_Gates"" rel=""nofollow"">Kekkaimon Gofūjutsu: Hachimon Heijō(Barrier Gate Five Seals Technique: Castle Closing Eight Gates):</a> Applied to Kumogakure and any relatively important installment.

Unlike the Gogyo Fuin, this technique disrupts chakra even if there are no other seals present on the victim. When the Agarisagaro is placed on an individual it will impede the movement of chakra by disrupting the chakra path ways and causing them to fluctuate randomly. This makes it twice as difficult to utilize ninjutsu or to generally focus and control chakra. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> If the seal is damaged it will be rendered useless. Additionally it can be removed by the Gogyo Kaiin. The seal can be disrupted by firing chakra into the seal from the outside or focusing it in the seal till it breaks. Breaking this seal by focusing chakra and overloading it is considerably difficult and will waste chakra due to the fact that the fluctuations make it hard to focus and direct chakra.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fuin no kumokui(<sub>吹いんの雲杭</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Seal of the Spider Bite'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 0.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By utilizing his chakra Genmyou is capable of placing a seal on a tag or an opponent directly that effectively acts like a crack in the victim's chakra system.

The location is designated by a localization of his pure chakra. This technique takes such a small amount of chakra that it is completely negligible. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique can only summon to where the specified chakra is located. Additionally, if the chakra is used for a long range summoning the jutsu will become increasingly more taxing with the increase in distance.

Effectively, this allows him to activate or deactivated a fuinjutsu's effect by preforming 3 hand seals. This is always utilized in regards to his fire sealing method techniques and has the effect of allowing him to release the jutsu from the scroll or otherwise object. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> It has no effect by itself and has normal seal weaknesses. <br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Fuin kakari(<sub>吹いんかかり</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Seal linking'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> D-C.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 0.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> This is a very simple technique which allows the individual to link seals.

Unlike the Lion closing roar or similar techniques however, this seal instead blocks chakra in such a way that the path is effected much like the blood stream is by a blood clot. This effectively means that overtime Tsuuro shougeichiten causes a blockage in the chakra stream which can create a build up in pressure. This varies in how long, but the more chakra that is being used/the faster the flow of chakra, the quicker this will occur. If the seal is not removed this blockage can effectively rupture a chakra pathway and cause chakra to rampantly flow into areas of the body where it should not be, this is incredibly painful. Additionally, if the seal is removed -of course depending on how early after it is applied- the chakra blocked will suddenly rush to move and fill the space. If the seal was placed near a chakra exit, this can cause chakra to randomly eject from the victim's body and thus waste their chakra.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> The seal will break after a certain amount of chakra has built up as the pressure acts about the same as overwhelming the seal with chakra. If the seal is damaged or removed it's effects are nullified. This seal requires some of the user's chakra to be stored within the seal in addition to the effort needed to create the seal.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Ryuutsuuro Fuin(<sub>流通路吹いん</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Dragon-pathway seal'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Fuinjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 5.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> By executing the 5 hand seals, forming the seal on something or with his chakra and applying it the user effectively boosts the victim's abilities. The victim's chakra system speeds up and is improved in it's ability to release chakra thus allowing their body to be faster and stronger. This also means ninjutsu seem to unexpectedly come out stronger than normal, the effected part will usually not notice the difference due to adrenaline. After the three minute mark they'll begin to feel tired and within the next 2 minutes fatigue will set in.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This technique can only be overloaded with chakra if the user can focus their chakra to the seal rather than letting it flow. Additionally the seal can be removed or damaged to cease it's effects, though any chakra used before hand will still have caused some portion of the desired effect. This jutsu takes around 1 minute to fully activate and thus seems more gradual. A-S ranked individuals can forcibly slow their chakra system and skilled B rank individuals may be able to do so as well. <br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Denkou Ooi(<sub>でんこう多い</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Lightning Mantle'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 8.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Through studying lightning release armor and then utilizing his ability to conduct lightning through his body with no ill effects, Genmyou is capable of making a mantle of lightning around his body and within. This mantle allows him to move at high speed, though nowhere near as fast as lightning release armor, it takes a rather skill individual to track his movements without the aid of a doujutsu. This jutsu essentially amplifies his speed and strength, the strength aspect is much weaker than the speed. If an individual comes into contact with the mantle they will find themselves damaged, be it through burns or shocks.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> This jutsu, though not all that chakra taxing, makes it difficult to utilize other jutsu while it is active. Prepared jutsu do not count, additionally Denkou Ooi only lasts for a maximum of three minutes and has a cooldown time ranging from 30 seconds to 1 minute.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Inadzuka(<sub>稲塚</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Flash of Lightning'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Ninjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> E-A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Lightning.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 3.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Inadzuka is a raiton technique that by itself can either be used much like a chidori, or can be fired off in a bolt of lightning.

A stun effect lasting 10 seconds is caused in addition to burn damage, possible piercing, and normal lightning damage. Additionally the static gathered is equal to the dispersed form of the C rank technique and is now obviously felt, it still has no effect.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">A Rank:</span> Getting hit by this rank, which is the highest form of this technique, causes incredibly painful damage and would make a chuunin likely pass out and cause a jounin a rather dangerous amount of damage.

Typically the barriers will be in the rough shape of a box/cube, but they can vary in shape. These barriers work by connecting barrier rods with a flat plane of chakra. This process means that if an individual is caught between two barrier rods while they are forming a barrier they could very will be cut in half or the like. These barriers are incredibly effective against chakrabased attacks. Lightning affinity jutsu below B rank will conduct into the 'pure' chakra and be channeled throughout the barrier. All other affinities can have their desired effect.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Powerful taijutsu techniques or piercing attacks can easily cut, break, or pass through the barrier <br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Douji kaido(<sub>同時開度</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Synchronous divergence'</span>).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> FuiNinjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> S.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> Direct or indirect contact.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Pure</span> chakra.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 16.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Douji kaido, a technique created some years after Genmyou's study with the Antare clan, it is a technique to be feared by all those who posses an advanced affinity. The jutsu is simple, it is a seal, that after being conducted through his chakra using Fuin furidashi, is capable of essentially tearing merged affinities apart. This technique works through the seal quickly infecting the jutsu with Genmyou's 'pure' chakra, latching onto the intermingled affinities, and then causing a divergence which splits the jutsu in half, -altering it's trajectory- and destroys the synchronicity of the affinities by doing so.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> Despite the explanation of Fuin Furidashi, this technique takes 10 seconds to charge if done so directly and 20 seconds if activated via his aura.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> Ijū no tsūshin(<sub>移住の通信</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Signals of Transmigration'</span>). <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> Supplementary ninjutsu/Forbidden Technique(?).<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> C-S.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 100 mile radius or within magnetic field.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> Denjiton and/or Lightning.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> Variable.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Potentially a forbidden technique when utilized at its strongest, Ijū no tsūshin is a technique devised by the Kanagata clan, but released to the public. It is one of few that is actually useable by anyone, rather than just by one of the two most masterful lightning clans. A largely variable technique in regards to application, Ijū no tsūshin is executed utilizing handseals only when the user's skill is exceptionally low. The amount of handseals varies depending on user skill, complexity of the technique's application, and distance. Cutting to the point, Ijū no tsūshin allows the user to transmit subtle electrical signals via chakra. One of the primary uses of Ijū no tsūshin is in the vein of nigh telepathic communication by sending electrical signals from one individual to the other. This application is B rank at least as it requires incredible mental focus and chakra control so as not to accidentally use too much electricity and thus damage the brain. While most users of Ijū no tsūshin are only capable of communicating rudimentary orders over only twenty or so meters, those capable of utilizing the technique at A rank are able to transmit signals over 10s of miles of distance. The further away the individual, the less complex the signals must be with few exceptions.<br/><br/>The last, and forbidden, use of this technique is effectively mind control, which is considered a technique only in the grasp of a select few, most of which are members of the Kanagata clan. This <span class=""bb-i"">mind control</span> is utilized via the user transmitting a set of continuous electrical signals of extreme complexity, thus allowing them to effectively fire nerves strategically, and even highjack an individual's brain and use it to further transmit signals once highjacked. This application is considered S rank and is typically used only as an interrogation technique, having been forbidden in all other scenarios.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Weakness:</span> While not limited in its range or the complexity of the “commands,” or the detail of its communicative abilities, and certainly not possessing a high chakra cost barring its S rank use, Ijū no tsūshin is not an easy technique to maintain. While its chakra cost is not great, every use takes a sliver, and continuous use, even for most masters, threatens to cause the user to become less and less aware of the amount of chakra going into the process. Additionally, due to the sheer complexity of translating “words,” and concepts directly to the brain of another individual via electrical signals, even for the sake of mere communication, this technique takes a level of focus for all, but the most masterful users that makes it largely useless in combat as it would only allow most individuals to give very simple commands, if that. Lastly, when using the S rank form of this technique, a given user is typically incapable of manipulating more than one individual at a time and almost always must remain entirely immobile while doing so. When controlling another person their own senses and awareness of their surroundings are lowered considerably making them more vulnerable to both genjutsu and surprise attacks.<br/><br/>It should be noted that in addition to the aforementioned weaknesses, this technique can be disrupted in  several other notable ways as it only works properly when conducting through air. As such, the signals carried by the electricity will be distorted too greatly to be used if they must travel through three meters of dense material or any liquid. Should an individual be cloaked in lightning chakra or have it running through their body the technique will be unable to take over their body, or will be drowned out by the stronger electrical currents. Lastly, individuals with exceptional chakra control can treat even the S ranked technique much like a genjutsu and fluctuate their chakra continuously to disrupt the jutsu's control long enough to reassert their own.<br/><br/>====================<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Name of Technique:</span> <a href=""http://th04.deviantart.net/fs45/150/f/2009/114/f/7/Alchemy_symbol_by_chorynaglowe.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">Idou no Himotsuki(<sub>移動の紐付</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Removal of Restriction'</span>).</a><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Type of Jutsu:</span> FuiNinjutsu.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Rank:</span> B.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Range:</span> 6 meter radius.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Nature Type:</span> N/A.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Handseals:</span> 5.<br/><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> Utilizing his blade, Genmyou channels a fuinjutsu through it and/or stores one within and utilizes this later. Once prepared with hand seals, Genmyou will stab his blade into the ground and call out this technique's name. Once done the seal will appear inscribed around where the blade's location of piercing/contact. He will quickly say the name of the seal and it will expand outwards covering a space with a 6 meter diameter with the blade at it's epicenter.

Essentially, one seal, upon contact with the user after being placed on a surface and activated via 6 hand seals, will scan all the information, energy, and matter of the individual, and then alter its locational information by swapping it with an equivalent amount of space. Upon appearing at the location of the second seal, the user must step off of the symbol within the space of 2 seconds or they will be returned immediately to their prior location as the space switches back.

A swordsman walked down the valley, looking for a man he'd heard had been renown as some sort of god to the people around here. His hands twitched in anticipation. 

""Not every day I get to slay a supposed God. Normally I only get the title as Slayer of Men.""

He wore a red coat, with a slight bulge on the both sides of the interior, two rod like objects were stuffed away on either side. The one one the left was shorter than the on one the right. On his back was a Nodachi, strapped across his right shoulder His face was elated that such a man could exist. Maybe someone strong enough to kill him?

""A demon vs a god... how interesting."" </div>"

Sitting quietly near amidst the gently swaying branches of a copse, the shade's eyes were closed, his breathing level and calm, and his mind open. He had thought to rest awhile, but considering the presence of the stranger he doubted that would last terribly long. Continuing his mental excercise, Zume expanded his awareness in all directions, sensing the movement of birds, frogs, squirrels, and even insects all in perfect harmony as they moved to survive and more importantly, thrive.

His perception focused then, rapidly shifting to different areas of interest, then through different layers of perception. After a few minutes he felt that the man was close enough to hear him, and so his eyes still closed, he spoke. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Greetings stranger,""</span></font> he said, his smooth voice emanating through the air. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""What brings you to this valley? The beauty, are you simply passing through, or perhaps your intentions are less...peaceful,""</span></font> a knowing smile came over his face as his eyes opened to gaze upon the man, their color hazel for the moment.

He rose.

Once on his feet the shade stared at the man silently, awaiting his response. Hopefully he was wrong. He was tired of challengers.</div>"
18493,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-05 04:11:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b""><div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""#ed1c24"">????</font></div></span>

The man raised his eyes at the supposed God's annoyance. His eyes locked onto Zume, seemingly absorbing everything he saw.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I see, I feel annoyance, you are tired, many people challenge you, none of them worth your time, some fools trying to become some sort of hero, or prove they're the strongest. I'm not like those people, though neither do I come here peacefully. I'm here because I hear you might be interesting. Let me prove you I am worth the challenge. Hit me with whatever attack you feel like. If I'm alive, I'm obviously worth your time. If I'm not, oh well.""</font>

The man still hadn't unsheathed his sword. He didn't see a need. It wasn't like this was life or death yet. His hands finally stopped shaking; he could feel it. This man was worth the challenge.</div>"
18494,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-05 04:23:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

Listening, the shade tilted his head and raised an eyebrow slightly, finding himself mildly intrigued by the man's proposition. However, he did not enjoy killing, though if his strike killed the man it would be the end of his encounter. On the other hand, doing so was rather boring and risky as he'd then be fairly close to the man as a strike that would easily be fatal was one that he'd rather deliver at close range, not that such was a requirement.

He took several steps towards the man, with not a shred of killing intent in him. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Why?""</span></font> He asked simply, his eyes seeming to search the man's for an answer. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""You seem to have come a long way, and while you are right, I would much prefer offering you a fair chance.""</span></font> He smiled slightly, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Both in combat and in life, after all you seem the worthy sort.""</span></font>

His smile faded and he raised his hand before him, palm faced up as he began to mold chakra within himself, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""But if you insist I can certainly deliver,""</span></font> his eyes briefly darkened, before lightening as he searched the man's face for a reply. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Regardless, I would know your name prior, so that at least a grave my be laid. All men deserve that much.""</span></font></div>"

The man shook his head. Why must people of his calibur ask questions? Why worry about the philosophical? A bit of worry went across his face though as he noticed the total lack of killing intent. That would be no fun, no, no, that wouldn't do.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I am a warrior, and I live by the blade, and perhaps I shall die by it. That is all. As of this moment, neither one of us has a name. Please do try to kill me, this is what it should feel like when you do. En guarde.""</font>

The nameless warrior quickly drew a tessen out of his coat. A massive amount of killing intent flooded the area, beyond description. The very nature that had been thriving around the area took fear. Animals fled. Even the trees began to lose color. Images of death would flood anyone nearby. He walked slowly towards Zume, watching his every movement, wanting to see what he would feel.</div>"
18496,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-05 05:55:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

Warrior, a word he had heard many times, but not so many said it with the conviction that this man did. Intriguing. Then his killing intent soared, briefly putting his senses on edge before he took a breath, calming himself to serenity once more. There was not a flinch or out of place movement as he watched his opponent's eyes analyze his every move.

The Shade smiled, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Amusing,""</span></font> and his hand was met by its twin to preform several handseals in rapid succession. He did not state the name of his technique, but a dark mist began to spread from his form, drifting around him, but not spreading further than 4 feet in every vector. This man was a strange one, for he was a warrior who cared not for names or titles, only for battle.

Perhaps this made him a truer warrior than many others he'd faced, but that did not make him any less strange.

Eyes serious, Zume sighed lightly before closing them entirely and beginning to walk towards his opponent as well, noting his weapon once more as he did so. It seemed that there were no words that he could utter to dissuade the man from initiating combat, so he would instead be forced to use action. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""If that is your wish, then come, nameless warrior,""</span></font> he continued to approach, muscles relaxed, but ready for anything at a moment's notice.

He hoped not to be disappointed, though it hardly mattered in the end.</div>"
18497,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-05 14:07:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#ed1c24""><div class=""bb-h3"">???</div></font>

The nameless warrior continued his approach, and his tessen snapped open, releasing a large amount of chakra.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""That was fast. I can feel your serenity once more. Most people never calm down after I announce myself. Why do you not attack directly? I gave you the offer. <span class=""bb-i"">Breath of Gaia</span>""</font>

 With a snap of his wrist panning forward with his fan, dust in the air formed together, flying together in blades towards Zume with a small breeze, a small scale attack for the most part. The blades of dust cut into the ground, kicking up more to be added to the attack. He wanted to see what manner of mist this was. What would it do to the dust if anything, and would it be blown away that easily?</div>"
18498,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-05 20:58:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

With the opening of the Tessen Zume noted the release of the man's chakra into his surroundings where it appeared to blend with surrounding earth and dust for the most part. It was an aptly named technique and as it was executed it created more of the dust and wind, attempting to blow away the mist that surrounded him. However it was dense, though it did not obscure vision very much, and while some of it initially blew backwards and away from him, it quickly gathered once more, forming back into a cloud around him as it had been before.

When they blades reached it had already gathered once more and aligned along the path of the blades, solidifying as it did so. When they blades hit they met edges equal in length and size to their own and propelled just as much by the negative polarity that had been imparted them by Zume.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""I have much experience upon the battleground,""</span></font> he stated cryptically. The man's chakra scattered around him, interspersed lightly with his mist, and some upon the ground surrounding him unless further manipulated by the man to do otherwise. Zume figured that the technique could be utilized as a direct attack, but was far more effective as a preparation for further assault.

With this in mind he swept his left arm to his side, the mist thickening into a fog on that side of his body as he did so, then motioned in another sweeping motion towards his opponent causing the fog to thin into a mist once more. As it thinned it extended to the side then curved in an arc and attempted to strike towards the man from his right side. All the while Zume's eyes remained closed, though he could understand his surroundings just fine.

What the striking mist would do upon nearing the man depended on his actions.</div>"
18499,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-06 01:47:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#ed1c24""><div class=""bb-h3"">???</div></font>

The nameless warrior slammed his tessen shut with his right hand. The chakra disappeared from the dust in the air.  

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I suppose you aren't going to let me just do this easily. I suppose it would be boring if you did.... so lets see, what's the most that little fog of yours could take?""</font>

It was seemed to him both were merely getting a feel for eachother. The fun would start when they were ready. 

The man gracefully moved his tessen in a circle, crouching as he went, with the tessen gliding across the ground beneath him, then he suddenly swept it forward.

<span class=""bb-i"">Earth Release: Earth Flow Wave</span>
The earth below him jutted out into a wave he rode, making it both an attack and an evasion of the mist coming at him. The wave rose above his enemy, threatening to crash into him, with the crest of the wave landing on the other side of his opponent, on the other side of the mist. 

</div>"
18500,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-06 02:50:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

As the man began to move his fan, Zume's fingers splayed and the mist split into 5, 3 of which moved towards him, 1 that kept its trajectory, and another which moved behind the man if he were to dodge backwards. As the chakra shifted purposes and was moulded he noted the infusion of it into the earth around his opponent, and as he noticed this the mist thickened once more into a fog. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""An effective counter,""</span></font> he mused quietly as the wave formed and moved towards him, as if in slow motion.

Much to the man's displeasure he would find it slowing the closer it came to Zume. Furthermore while his elevated status had caused the 3 offshots of mist to miss him, they had not missed the mud wave. Zume took a step back and focused the fog before him somewhat, though a lighter mist remained all around.

As the fog neared it became even denser, more chakra packing into it and its polarity increasing. However, he never let it reach him, for before then the mist that had hit had moved throughout its form and degraded the chakra, which guided the technique, causing the wave to become a rapidly falling pile of mud. His two other strikes, which had missed, curved downwards and hit the ground, disappearing.

The fog before him redistributed, forming around him once more, its distribution as even as it had been before. Then it spread out further, covering a total of 10 feet in all directions. If the man had not retreated, he would now be within the mist. Regardless portions of it would cling to him slightly as he retreated.

If he did gain distance Zume would begin to walk towards him slowly, still not a shred of killing intent present.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""That Tessen is quite something,""</span></font> Zume would state regardless, his eyes still closed, his tone revealing his interest. Perhaps this would require he use his own blade, not that the man had yet drawn his Nodachi. He wondered what it was capable of.</div>"
18501,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-06 15:38:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""#ed1c24""><div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">????</div></div></font>

His Earth Flow started to degenerated to nothing more than mere mud, the man jumped high into the air to avoid the mist once more, opening his fan to the side. The force of his jump sent part of the crest of the weakened wave he was on crashing down at his God-like opponent as his wave collapsed. Mud or not, the sheer weight of it was likely to do some damage if it wasn't stopped.

As his fan opened to the side of him, the dust in the air began to gather to it, almost visibly drawn as it came to him. The moment the tessen wasn't closed, the wave stopped degenerating and instantly collapsed completely into mud.

He mused midair.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""My, my. That mist speaks of highly of you as well. It's calm and calculated, much like it's owner""</font>

He reflected on what had happened. As soon as his wave came in contact with it, his control of it disappeared. The man could either manipulate or cancel techniques with that mist, that much he could see.  He could only think of one technique to get rid of that blasted mist, but from what he'd seen earlier, it would gather again even if he did.

His left hand reached over his shoulder grabbing the Nodachi strapped to his back, It was impossible to draw in that position, but he just held the handle.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Get ready, Monohoshi Zao, this one will be worth it.""</font>

Chakra began amassing in the blade, drawing in energy from the air around it. The Ito(braid on the handle) of his sword started changing color slowly. It was black, and slowly, ever so slowly reddening. The change was extremely gradual, as was the chakra it was beginning to amass.</div>"
18502,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-06 20:38:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

Rapidly as the mud began to collapse, Zume focused the mist around his body and, the mud obscuring vision as it closed around him, he moved. However, the mud never truly touched him, instead it hovered an inch or two from the surface of his body, repulsing the mud repeatedly to keep it at the same distance.

Taking a step, Zume then spun rapidly, altering the mist's polarity so that one layer of it repulsed and the other attracted. This caused the mist to be thrown from his body and pull the mud into a spiraling sphere of jet black chakra covered with the mud. The mist partially bonded with the mud, and then it all split off into many portions, flinging a myriad of sharpened earthen projectiles, hardened, shaped, and held together by the positive polarity of the void, towards his opponent.

He ceased his spin, coming to a stop a mere half a second after the release of the flowing earth spears.

The spears were positioned in such a way so as to be spread out enough to make dodging all of them difficult, but were also close enough to make weaving between them equally as hard. The mist that had missed earlier had now moved back to Zume making a thin veil around his form. His eyes remained shut. He doubted his initial attack would hit as this individual could manipulate the earth, but nonetheless he knew that it was a step towards something else.

The man had yet to utilize all his tricks, though the same could be said for him. Executing handseals, Zume smiled slightly and spoke, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hahaoya no hōyō(母親の抱擁 'A mother's embrace').""</span></font> With a small shroud of chakra already about his form, Zume simply condensed it over him properly, and portions of chakra through his body. It was time to step up the game and see just how much this man could take.</div>"
18503,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-10 20:23:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ed1c24"">?????</font></span></div>

The man was starting to get intrigued by his opponent more and more, the fact that he had touched his sword at all was fact enough of that. He was planning on using it, the last time he'd felt for the need for it.... only one other man had deserved it truly. His sword was still absorbing chakra from the area around it, starting to turn a dark red instead of black. He loved the sense of mystery around his opponent, most opponents felt something more than just serenity in a fight. He didn't know how he could do it, no killing intent, like the killing intent he possessed. The nightmarish feeling around him was sheerly from the thrill he felt.

The warrior pressed his fan together a bit more, though it didn't close. The dust around him gathered into a platform, which he burst off of, jumping to the right. 

As he jumped higher, he did a similiar motion as previous, causing the dust to make a shield infront of him against several of the earth spears, which he would then bounce off of again, starting to make a circle of dust in the air above Mr. Mystery. An earth user taking to the sky might seem almost poetically ironic. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""A mother's embrace? It seems like neither of us has forgotten where he came from.""</font></div>"

With the spears barely missing the man with each of his movements, Zume smiled slightly, regarding the man with a new appreciation, even if only mild in its intensity. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""The question is,""</span></font> his smiled broadened somewhat, his eyes still filled with an unearthly calmness, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""who shall return to her first,""</span></font> he took a step, the remainder of the mist spread out, becoming indistinguishable from normal air due to how dispersed it became, and then he vanished.

A blur of movement would pass his opponent from both the right and left side, after which an attack would strike out from both sides, despite Zume being present in neither. The light of the sun would briefly flash against something, seen barely from the corner of the man's eye. What was it?</div>"
18505,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-12 21:58:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""#ed1c24"">???</font></div>

The man started to have a weird expression on his face. His sword's hilt finally stayed a color of crimson.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""This air is not one of the chaos of war.... it's unnatural. It's serene. ""</font>

The very air around him shook with serenity as the void dispersed into it, the man feeling it spread. The feeling was unnatural to the man as he started his descent. This was the first time in a long time he'd felt anything close to fear. He instinctly switched the tessen to his other hand, and drew from his robes the other rod like bulge in his robe, a Kodachi, drawing with the same side as where the kodachi was, making the draw not able to be an iai technique, but overall faster. The fact he felt the need to draw a sword was reflected of the emotions he felt.

Chakra flooded thinkly into his his blade, while with his other hand, his tessen moved open and close(though never fully closed), channeling his chakra as well as a hindsign. 

It wasn't a moment too soon. He felt a blur of motions to either side of him, and unleashed a upward slash to his right, flicking his right hand down at the center to send a downward slash to his left, making two slashes from a single stroke.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Hill cutter""</font>

The technique was simply named, but complexly composed.

The slash released a wave of chakra from his blade that quickly pulled in the dust from around him, imbuing it in an chainsaw like motion, causing it initially come to the center, then vibrate outwards making a large cut infront of it. The way it was designed the chakra and core of the techique itself was armored by the earth around it that moved to fast to be imbued itself. It was composed of so many seperate particles that stopping any of them would only cause the ones behind it to reanimate it with kinetic energy in the same directions.

In simple, it was a chainsaw wave of earthen particles

The cuts were very wide, about a foot across. They would slam into the incoming attacks to both sides, as he sensed the serenity coming once more

As his blade ended the path, his wrist flicked up once more, causing one more slash to , causing a bit of pain to the swordsman's wrist from the 2nd flick in a row.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Mizu Gaeshi*: Hill Cutter.""</font>

(*Is a real sword technique)

A 3rd wave shot out. The man sent it to wear he felt the serenity at it's strongest. All techniques were painted by the emotions of their users.</div>"
18506,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-12 23:28:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

His position revealed behind the man, Zume, in a flash, drew his blade from seemingly nowhere, and blocked the strike. His eyes had notified him of its movement patterns, consistency, and chakra make=up allowing him to deduce how to counter it with his own blade. The movement patterns within the blade emitted just along its surface, moving in the opposite direction of the dust, while several other one bunched and created slight grooves and spikes. Several others expanded from the blade, creating a flat wall-like surface as Zume slashed. In this way he blocked the strike, dispersing it over the surface of the <span class=""bb-i"">wall</span> and carrying through with his slash so as to send a blade of chakra from his weapon downwards at his adversary from only a 2 meters(6 feet) away.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Well done,""</span></font> he stated with a slight smile, solidifying some void chakra and jumping away to land on the ground far below, where he waited. This man's technique was a dangerous thing, he'd need to keep his blade on hand, and the mist active, this was for sure. As such he expelled a small amount of additional void chakra, altering it from a mist to an even distribution of liquid and gaseous void.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""You are a capable warrior,""</span></font> he stated simply, almost thoughtfully as he observed the man's chakra as well as a myriad of other layers to his being. He had sensed fear for a moment, an interesting sensation from a man so shrouded in killing intent. Still, along with that he had detected excitement, so it was clear that this man had challenged him not for the sake of fame, or fortune, but for the sheer enjoyment he gleaned from fighting a worthy opponent--at least this was the likely conclusion.

Interesting, to say the least, if not somewhat insane. Nonetheless, those of normal mind did not typically get far in such a world as this one.</div>"

The man landed on the ground, closing his tessen as he did.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Bane of Benkei.""</font>

Chakra filled only the tip tessen as he did it. He thrust it out at his opponent's chakra blade, and burst it open the instant it the chakra was touching Zume's Chakra, sending the chakra on the tip flying in two directions, and the technique sent at him with it. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""You are as well... I almost can't remember the last time I felt fear like that. I suppose you are worthy of hearing my name. I am Ganryu, Kojiro Sasaki, the Nodachi on my back is my weapon, Monohoshi Zao (The Drying Pole). This has been a nice warm up, but I think we're both to the point of actually starting.""</font>

He tucked the tessen back into his robe, and dropped the Kodachi which planted straight into the ground. Then he removed the Nodachi from his back, grabbing the cords that wrapped around his shoulder, and pulling it over his head. He held his sword infront of his, and quickly threw the sheathe from off of it, into the distance, discarding it. It landed with a thud, still wrapped with the nature chakra that imbued the sword Kojiro was carrying.

As soon as the sheath was removed from the sword, the chakra it was filled with radiated around the area. The chakra wasn't normal, and his eyes changed, turning bright red underneath them, the pupils changing to a bright blue. It was sage chakra, the man had become a sage, the sword having filled with natural energy ever since he had touched it. It refreshed his chakra, and made his body much tougher.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Now, I know your name, Zume Tatasuko, but what's his name?""</font>

He pointed to Zume's blade with his Nodachi. As he did, his sword, full of chakra, touched his Kodachi in the ground, accidentally a flick of sage chakra touched it as well.</div>"
18508,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-13 01:02:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

Flicking the blade slightly as if to remove something from it, Zume observed the change and nodded his head slightly. As the man entered sage mode, apparently by way of his blade, Zume's own blade returned to its <a href=""http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/039/1/1/yuniba_saru_kimi_sealed_form_redraw_by_yoshua171-d4p356y.jpg"">typical appearance</a>. He bowed his head slightly as the stranger finally revealed his name, finishing the process of pleasantries that had not been finished when they began. Smiling slight as his blatant admission regarding fear, Zume in response, raised his blade before him so that the light could gleam off of it ever so slightly, <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""its name is Ōku no iroai ni musuko(<sub>多くの色合いへ息子</sub> <span class=""bb-i"">'Son to many shades'</span>),""</span></font> he stated with a slight smile as his eyes grazed over its surface before returning to Kojiro's form.

He closed his eyes, and immediately there was a slight shift in his demeanor. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yes, I suppose you could say we have tested eachother plenty, and it is time that the final exam begin,""</span></font> as his eyes opened, so did those of the abyss, for no longer were they hazel, but pitch black orbs set in his still handsome face. There was both a pull and a revulsion begot from gazing into those <a href=""http://www.davidicke.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/legacy_images/stories/May%202008/black_eyes.jpg"">eyes</a>, as if they were the essence of emptiness itself. <span class=""bb-i"">Seijou no nentou karada(Purity of the Mind and Body),</span> he thought in silence as he initiated a technique, then began walking towards his opponent, the man Kojiro.

The void chakra scattered about his form seemed to writhe and dance as he moved now, and for the first time, Kojiro would sense killing intent from him. Still, it was not as it would have been from most, no it was a strange mixture of terror inducing emotion and serenity--almost as if it hinted at what lay beyond this life. Fear of loss, then the serenity of letting go of it all and relinquishing ones worries and responsibilities to the world and those in it. It was a unique intent, this was certain, and the shade held it well.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""I collect you will not regret if I kill you?""</span></font> He stated with a slight smile briefly touching his face before fading. He did not enjoy killing, only the conflict which was its premise, but if a man truly held no grudge, perhaps he could enjoy it...just this once.</div>"
18509,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-13 01:37:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Kojiro</font></div>

Kojiro laughed for the first time. It would seem out of place considering both had declared they were becoming serious. The killing intent however was much more at home than empty feeling. He enjoyed the feeling much more than before. There was something hollow about how it was before.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""What a feeling this intent. I can feel the brink of death in this feeling. The moment a warrior achieves his greatest point is when he's faced with it. Death is pleasant to me. I only fear a life full of mistakes.""</font>
His fear earlier was only the fear of having underestimated his opponent. He wouldn't do that again. This man was dangerous. It was wonderful! He grabbed his tessen, it responded to the sage chakra as well, then he threw it away, sending it sailing over Zume.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I'm sorry, I've delayed you far too long. I just wanted to enjoy that feeling. I might not get to enjoy it again. Life is short, I live every moment the most I can. Here I come.""</font>

He grabbed Monohoshi Zao and got into stance at blurring speeds, his entire demeanor changing to dead serious. The stance knocked down the Kodachi. The air around him spoke of his emotions, the killing intent speaking of the master of the art he'd acquired, a mastery of the sword, and of his pride in it. The pride of a swordsman. The chakra in his sword resonated in the air.

<span class=""bb-i"">Earth Release: Return to Dust</span>
He made a quick spinning slash, a 360 degree spin. The dust around the area which had been gathering from his tessen earlier followed his blade, creating a vortex based around several large blades of dust, one lined behind another. From the earth below more earth joined vortex, becoming more giant blades. Each blade passed behind the rest.

The vortex blew the sheathe farther away, and made the tessen sail farther as well as kicking up grass, and cutting down trees. The area was in for a beating he figured from both him</div>"
18510,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-13 04:51:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

The slightest of smiles was roused at Kojiro's response, but nothing more. It was good, of this he was sure, that the man's outlook was as such. It was open, free, and almost without care for the negative aspects of life, uncaring that it would one day end. It was better that way. Taking in a deep breath and invisibly expanding the patterns of his blade, Zume readied himself even as Kojiro's stance was taken, and his slash executed. The patterns moved to surround him as he <span class=""bb-i"">read</span> the technique's name from the man's mind, and simultaneously ran a simulation in his mind in regards to the result of the chakra moulded to execute it. All this in a split second and then the movement patterns manifested, and began to spin, each a oval-shaped blade which met at a point above his head and rotated upon that axis, angled downwards in a slow much like a massive umbrella. Each of the blades was 1.5 meters across and almost 3 meters in length. While there were small spaces between each angled piece of pitch black armor--composed of a mixture of solid and liquid void weaved together so as to create a more resilient structure-- they spun and as such caught air and flung it outwards in a secondary dome around 5 meters in radius, with Zume as the epicenter.

He did not utter the name of a single technique, for it had no name beyond that which was used for the techniques any Tatasuko utilized to manipulate the void's chakra. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""I may have passed your test, but you've only passed one of mine...""</span></font> he said quietly to himself, smiling despite the man's inability to see the expression. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""...but perhaps you will yet,""</span></font> he chuckled, and moved his arm in position to slash horizontally. As he did so, the movement graceful, his arm taking its time to move, 20 more of the movement patterns became externalized from the blade, 10 which formed more of the ovals, though they waited to enter the physical. The other 10 positioned themselves around the blade at different angles, elongating and being forced into the shape of sharpened, pointed edges by his will as they did so.

Taking in a deep breath, only a brief 7 seconds having passed since he had erected his defense, his eyes focused and he slashed. He could see it all, every atom, react to the motion as if time were slowed. He could choose to see everything like this, so as to react properly to every minute change or aspect of any given action taken by others. As the blade gradually traveled through the air, the oval plats that hadn't been utilized yet joined their brethren even as those that shaped his defense parted for a moment only for the new spaces to be filled by the moving ovals. His defense had expanded, and as it did so did the massive torrent of wind that surrounded him.

Initially the oval-shaped constructs had blocked the blades sent at him, but as they spun and formed the torrent of wind, the wind tore the fragments of dust apart before they ever reached the shield.

The slash however, traveled straight through the field of wind invisibly, the patterns externalized, but not yet physical. As they exited the field of wind they scattered, all 10 of them, opened into wide circular blades, hollow in the center, with the distance between each inner portion being a diameter of 8 meters. However, with no air resistance to yet impede them, the still invisible blades, rapidly moved shrunk, appearing like an invisible gyroscope and Kojiro is in the center.

To give his opponent a chance and to allow them their own kinetic energy, Zume physicalized the bladed rings when they were roughly 5 seconds from fully closing in, and thus cutting Kojiro to ribbons. This allowed for a brief period of time in which he could block, somehow, or escape the enclosing rings.</div>"
18511,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-13 15:54:00,Ganryu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""#ed1c24"">Kojiro</font></div>

Kojiro felt feelings enter his mind he knew were not his. He could feel serenity that had no place in his mind, a technique tainted by it's owner, and he knew whose emotion were so calm. He despised people who would interupt his duels with an assault on the mind. He'd run into several Yamanaka who'd tried.... it hadn't ended well. He thought in response to Zume's unwelcome intrusion.

<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">And here I was assuming you were a wise man, but here you are, looking into what you don't understand.</span></font>

The incoming shrinking spirals were the least of his worries. They dared pass through mother Earth, when his large rock style dictated it. His hands lazily started making a series of 6 handsigns, then repeated them quickly. His focus wasn't on countering the jutsu, he had it covered.

<span class=""bb-i"">Earth Release: Moving Earth Core</span>

He had hoped to save that as an ace against his opponent later, but it couldn't be helped. He could feel the circles moving, and if they were fashioned after how he imagined, that would stop them.

The technique however was countered, by Kojiro himself with a second release of it, moving in the opposite direction. The technique generally elevated or lowered the terrain around the user in a square box. Kojiro had used it to elevate the terrain, then pushed down on it with an equal force. That would compress the earth itself, making it much harder to pass through, and more importantly the compression would grab the circles by the sides, not head on. 

Kojiro imagined front and end of the cirles were the hard part, probably bladed to pass through without difficulty of the objects they passed, they probably had enough power to cut Monohoshi Zao. But from the sides, they would be vulnerable, and in addition, if they were curved, they would take even more damage from the earth pressing from above and below, unbending it. The sheer movement, should it fail to stop it, would also threatened throw off their little perfect circle, and have them crash into eachother.

Kojiro's focus wasn't on that however. It was staring at Zume, his killing intent took on a new form, a new terrifying form. Mere fear was something that a few men could indeed take straight on, but there was something more from a constant assault on one's psyche from more and more directions.

His killing intent filled every recess of his mind, taking all of his focus to not be overwhelmed by it himself. He projected it straight at Zume through his eyes, whose bright blue sage color had become frieghtening, increasing it and renewing it constantly to redouble it's effect. As long as Zume was saw his eyes, the intent would increase with each renewing, and while doing so relieved Kojiro from the last wave as he made a new one, but the old ones would linger, and continue to build on Zume as long as his attention was on Kojiro. Seeing every detail of Kojiro's eyes would also increase it, as was an increased perspective as he would notice every single detail of it more than most, affecting him more than most. In addition, him reading Kojiro's mind would double whatever hit he was taking from the standard killing intent.

The intent would intensify to a madness, flashing every fear a man could have of the line between life and death. Not only of the initial feeling of simply dying, but the thoughts of those close to them fading, thoughts of life becoming terrifying itself. It would build and build til the many thoughts driven by the intent would drive a man to madness, tearing his psyche to shreds.

In essence, as long as he kept looking, and reading, Zume was putting himself in greater and greater danger from reading what what Kojiro assumed he wouldn't understand. The intent didn't come from chakra, or from mere thoughts, or hormones, or atoms, or things the eyes could see or be helped to see, but a flash of Kojiro's soul at it's most viscious. Even if Zume had the most steeled will on earth, and the effects were paltry, they would only keep building, and all his observations skills would only increase the speed of the threat. To keep looking would not end well.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I am not a sage of a mere animal, I am the sage of humans, that allows me to feel very deeply the emotions we have.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hmm, interes-""</span></font> he cut off, his movement stopped, his body stalk still though the oval shields around him continued to rotate rapidly. His eyes were staring directly ahead, even though Kojiro could not see them, and his mind, which had been working quickly before, briefly went into overdrive.

First connection to the soul body was made, as Zume's mind dwelled in two places: In the void, and in his body. This also the method by which he was capable of reincarnation. He had been bound to the void, much like his elder brother, but luckily he had noticed the connection earlier and deduced how to control it, rather than be trapped by it for eternity. His brother, through his tampering, was not so lucky, for Zume had known him to be a threat to the world long ago, and so had crippled his reincarnation.

Nonetheless, as Zume accessed the portion of his soul which remained in the void, whilst his psyche was bombarded by killing intent and sheer terror, he cycled between the two, drew the information he needed, and then ceased conscious contact. This took only 3 seconds, but his immobile status did not change.

10 more movement patterns externalized from his blade, reinforcing his barrier and expanding the wind field an additional 5 meters, making it a total of 10 meters in radius. At this point the wnd within the field was moving at roughly 30-50 mph, picking up dust and debris freely. This decreased durability and increased the likelihood of being hurt by the flying objects. If Kojiro had not stepped back he would be inside the wind field.

As all this occurred Zume's mind filtered through persona, his mind's second layer beneath the false conscious and subconscious mind that each of the persona--essentially artificial personalities--utilized for thought. Had the man's attack not come from a deep and core source it would not have penetrated past said layer as it was doing. His Archetypes, similar to persona, but in truth the aspects of him that seldom changed even when his surface personality did, were in a stark panic at the fourth wave of killing intent.

As the fifth came...it did not hit them. His mind went silent, the serenity and killing intent begotten from him vanished. His expression became blank, and his eyes, if they could, began to emit a feeling of complete emptiness--not apathy, but an even deeper lack of substance.

6 of the shields thinned more, becoming bladed, but still flat, almost like certain flower petals, but with bladed types and slightly twisted forms about the middle. They began rotating, gradually picking up speed till they were just a blur like the shield that protected Zume. At first the field of wind decreased in radius by 2 meters, then it thinned from a dome, to a much thinner oval formation on its outer edge, but a warped dome 2 meters in. Its outer edge expanded and as it passed through a tree, the tree was cut in twain. As it fell it was sheered into more pieces. Zume had made his defense an offense. He began to walk. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Well done, but beware. You are now no more than an insect in my eyes, one that serves no purpose to me, and continues to pester me--biting where it can. What would one do wish such a creature, I imagine?""</span></font> His voice cut through the wind like a knife, as he directed the sound waves with tiny particles of void chakra, guiding them throug the mire and right before the sage of humans. It was as if he spoke to Zume face-to-face.

He released 10 more movement patterns, but they remained invisible and physically unmanifested around his form. Kojiro had passed the second test, but would he survive the class?</div>"

Kojiro saw the wind pickup around the man, expanding slightly. Kojiro was still weary of being touched by the man after seeing what he had done to his Earth Release: Earth Flow Wave. He hopped slightly, landing on top of the circles that had been stopped by his earth technique, then bounded off them hard to the right, giving himself a bit more distance from them as he bounded the right.

Then something peculiar happened. He felt a profound emptiness around the area. Their battle had scared away, or killed, any wildlife that had been around, and now Zume's serenity and killing intent left, leaving him alone it felt like. For a minute he thought he'd killed the man with his killing intent, with a heart attack or the like, but then he realized the man was still there, especially as he spoke, seemingly right next to him though he felt nothing. Zume was there, and yet.... he was not. Kojiro had the oddest sensation that he was looking over a precipice by looking at this man... He no longer felt emotion, even with his sage mode ramping up his latent ability to feel them. 

For a minute, he felt concern that he could not feel the man anymore, then that turned to excitement. Once again, it would be nothing but his skill that could possibly lead him through the day. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I accept your analogy, afterall even an insect may be venomous enough to kill, and if I have bitten where I am able, and scamper off before you can step on me, what would happen I imagine?""</font>
Kojiro landed 90 from where he had been, and swung upwardly with his Nodachi, cutting through the ground below him, and yet no ground was touched, the blade of his Nodachi instead disappated as it touched the ground, spreading to the wind, continuing the long blade until it had entirely vanished, with Kojiro holding with his hands nothing but a handle into the air. He watched as Zume's new shell cut a tree almost effortlessly.


<font color=""#ed1c24"">""My friend, if you wish to live, surrender now, and do not walk a single step more. I have come to quite like you during this little skirmish, and now I have to say, give up. I feel like I'm staring at a precipice staring at you, but I do not fear for I have bridged many before.""</font></div>"

Confidence, not arrogance, of this it was certain. However, there remained no barriers, no inhibitions, no care. He could not die. Not because his body was immortal, but because his soul was. Dying here against a worthy opponent, if the man indeed was, would not bother him in the least, but not continuing with victory in sight would indeed bother him, for the next time he returned, this man would be past the peak of his skill, whereas he would only surmount the one he now knew once more. No, backing down was entirely pointless, there was no need and no purpose in the action.

With the fading of Kojiro's weapon, Zume knew that there was far more to his actions. As if each thing had been done with meticulous precision. He felt as if surrounded on all four sides. Four sides, four tools, now three. Precise movements, positioning. A warning to him from his enemy.

Whatever this man had planned, or set up, which he was beginning to sense on multiple levels as he considered it, it was big and it was meant to finish him. Very well, if that was the case, then there would was no time for quarter. Four unseen handseals, <span class=""bb-i"">Hipparu no mukō kara(引っ張るの向こうから 'to draw from beyond'),</span> the mist spread, and then dispersed, disappearing into his surroundings rapidly, spread even more effectively by the wind around him. <span class=""bb-i"">Seijou no nentou karada(Purity of the Mind and Body)</span>, now utilized on the very particles of mist he had spread abroad in his surroundings. Sixteen handseals, <span class=""bb-i"">Tamashī no yōki – Hankō-ko o chūshō-ka shita mono(魂の容器 – 反抗子を抽象化したもの 'Soulless vessel – Abstraction of the defiant child'),</span> it formed beside him, then vanished into one of the invisible movement patterns, which immediately relocated itself far from his current location, half a mile in distance to be exact.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Drifting throughout, space and time dare not grace thy silver flesh. I implore, may I receive thy guidance, Ōku no iroai ni musuko.""</span></font> The blade, once whole, became scattered. All, but two of its many movement patterns, the chakra that made up the blade's physical manifestation, split from its form. The circular formations that had attacked Kojiro faded and returned to Zume in an instant, vanishing. 221 patterns of chakra in total, 1 that had been sent away, 2 that retained the blade's shape, leaving 218 patterns for him to utilize.

With that the torrent of wind ceased, dying instantly as his barrier demanifested its physical shape, revealing the last pure Tatasuko in all his empty majesty. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Then come, land a blow, I dare you,""</span></font> there was no emotion, no expression upon his face or in his mind. He had spread his arms wide as if to make himself a target, before lowering them, the emptiness now spread throughout the area. <font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Should you land it, you will not be the first to lay true a killing strike upon my form. As before, it will not be my end, come mortal, show me your worth,""</span></font> it was a lie. While Kojiro would not be the first to land a killing strike should he manage it, he would never be capable of such.

This was not his own arrogance, which dictated to him this answer. No, it was the mere fact that Kojiro had no way of detecting the single movement pattern that held within it, something precious. It was the fact that the sky itself had become his domain with the spread of his mist throughout. It was that he had pushed Zume all the way to his core, and brought such a terrible thing out to play in a world where emptiness was unwelcome...feared. No, his blow would not land.

With this thought in mind, he held a single handseal in his left hand, at his side, there was a flicker, and he began his wait. Whatever was coming, would hardly matter now.</div>"

Kojiro sighed as soon as Zume said to land the blow. This was it. Either he would end this fight now, or he would be ended. The edge of fate was ready to fall. As soon as it was said, Kojiro jerked his sword up another inch. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Mountain Cutter.""</font>

The red color under his eyes moved slightly as if he had trouble keeping sage mode going under all the stress he was going through. He hadn't spent much chakra in sage mode really, but now his technique was guzzling it faster than he was certain he could handle, but against an opponent like this he had no choice. He had it in his capacity, but using so much of his body's chakra at once, in sage mode no less, was no small feat. The four points created a diamond, with Zume in the dead center. Again, the simple name belied it's strength.

Zume had guessed right from his tools he'd placed, they hadn't been accidentally thrown away full of sage chakra. 

From the four different point, a piece of the earth shot up, the moved towards the center, forming an X, closing in on Zume. The feel of the technique was similiar to Hill Cutter, but on a completely different scale. The Earth shot up in fine particles that shot violently with a vibrating edge. Each 'edge' was 5 feet across, but would still cut most things in between to ribbons.

 The initial earth becoming shot into the earth launched all the tools into the sky, though they were thrown outside of the technique. The Tessen, being the smallest, was launched the farthest, flying over the technique itself to the other side, with the Kodachi and and Sheathe spun wildly in the air as well, off to the sides.

They earth continued to shoot upwards in a geyser like an X-shape making a constant cutting stream into the sky. Kojiro seemed confused himself at the scale of the attack as it continued to grow, pulling the ground HE was on into the sky. It took a great deal of focus for him to control the thousands sections of the attack around him alone trying to drag him into the center. The geyser pulled everything to the center of it, slicing it to ribbons.. He used an additional portion of chakra to shift his blade a small bit to shift the earth he was on a tad so that he wasn't sucked into the center, which was hard. The edged sucked everything to the center before cutting it to ribbons as it dragged it higher and higher into the sky.

The geyser was soon half a mile across.


On the ground the technique started enlarging, pulling in more and more ground from the sides around it to maintain the X, turning the ground from an X to a ♦ as it pulled in more and more earth. The technique pulled more and more things into itself.

The sheer scope of the attack was almost inhuman. Zume was in the worst section of it as well, the center, where earth would rise up from all directions, threatening to sandpaper him out of existance.</div>"

As the trigger was pulled, the flames ignited, the blade drawn, the shade closed his eyes and waited till the attack was nearly to him. Then there was a brief flicker, likely hidden by the dust from Kojiro's very own attack, after which it hit--head on.

From far far above the storm of cutting dust, Zume watched, held aloft by the sky's breath and surrounded by the non-physical movement patterns of his blade, which faded and flashed in and out of existence to ward off any wayward dust from his aggressor's attack. Such a simple maneuver, yet it proved effective. He noted Kojiro rising through the mire of dust and destruction and it was at this point that he whirled his blade, gripped his offhand, and shifted the shape of his blade into that of a spear. He then dropped it, point downwards and aimed at Kojiro's head from above.

100 of the movement patterns remained around him as defense and the wind carried him higher into the air. The other 118 of them linked to the spear even as the sky itself thrust the weapon at faster speeds, wind increasing its speed and acting as a tempest that offset the dust once the weapon entered it. Perhaps the most dangerous aspect of the attack was not the spear itself, but the 100 unmanifested patterns of chakra that were ready to become physical at a mere thought from their master: Zume.

They were arranged curved blade whose arms extended out for 50 meters radially about the spear, though invisible and non-physical for the moment. Half of the blades went clockwise and the others went counter clockwise, intersecting one another in a variety of places. What was to happen depended entirely on whether Kojiro dodged or not.

As this attack was executed Zume, still in the sky, gathered winds from the four corners with the chakra he had distributed earlier, using the void's pull to manipulate the wind as if it were his own affinity. Even if Kojiro managed to avoid death, it would find it soon. The sage had dealt an attack that, to the shade's eyes, clearly drained him of almost the entirety of his chakra. Even with him still in sage mode and absorbing chakra the man would not pass out, and could continue fighting, but would be incapable--most likely--of pulling off anything so flashy again.

Though, he had to admit, even in his current mind state, that the attack was indeed impressive. That much he would give the man, but only that much.</div>"

Kojiro felt something profoundly wrong as he felt his technique go off without so much as a hitch, other than he himself being dragged into it. If something had blocked it, as he had expected, the blank space would have given it away on the earth, and Zume wouldn't have just gone unresisting. That man was too strong for that.

Above him his tessen fell, right towards him.

<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">Finally, some relief, I couldn't hold this technique as strong as it is for much longer as I am</span></font>

Kojiro glanced upward, though he couldn't see Zume at his current height he saw the wind disrupting the dust slightly above him, though the technique was too well held together in it's X to be merely blown away, though a hole that quickly reformed itself was left in it's wake. Was Zume that far above him? That seemed impressive. Kojiro couldn't even see him, but the details of where the gust was gave him a good idea of the direction of the man at least, still above him.

<font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i"">Oh good, I don't have to maintain control of the technique, it's headed upward anyways. I don't have to changed direction or anything</span></font>

Kojiro snapped the tessen out the air with his dominant hand, and swung it at his feet, freeing himself from the suction of his own technique, starting to fall out the air. 

Kojiro continued falling along it as the Spear came at him. Again he filled his tessen with chakra, and slammed it forward with such precise timing that it reflected how long he had spent with the weapon. As soon as the spear touched the chakra, he snapped it open, causing it to violent be flung to the side, seperating the force that drove it in two, and sending it flying to left, straight into the dust X technique, if Kojiro was lucky, sandblasting it to oblivion. He quickly shut his fan again, ready for more projectiles as he fell. 

Kojiro's eyes dimmed, turning back to brown, with no red underlining, and his sword changed from a red ito to a black one. Around him, silver dust started to gather, leaving guiding the technique and slowly regathering into his blade once more.

The technique itself was still held together by the massive volume of chakra in it, and it's direction, continuing it's upward course. It was probably going to reach a few miles in the air before it stopped. It did however stop growing. The ground stopped feeding it, leaving a massive crater from where the technique had shot out of the ground. It slowly spread dust in the air around the area, still coated in his chakra. The X took up 1/2 a mile across, and 3/4 a mile long. It was no longer under Kojiro's control however. Kojiro shook his head at the thought. He wished he could reenter Sage mode in an instant. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""And so the hunter becomes the hunted.""</font></div>"
18518,Yosh/Gan Character Testing Grounds,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76233-yosh-gan-character-testing-grounds,['Arena'],2015-02-18 18:27:00,yoshua171,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-u""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Zume Tatasuko</span></div></span></font></div>

Downwards movement, an alteration in course taken into mind, then a sudden shift. Deflected, but no matter, for as the spear was hit to the side, its course changed to a diagonal one. However, before it could move even a foot from Kojiro due to the sage's Tessen strike, the blades manifested, solidifying from the spear and moving outwards. Due to their length(50 meters), and new position because of Kojiro, they would pierce him less than 2 seconds after they'd begun manifesting, which was roughly 1 second after the spear had been struck. The blades were manifesting in such a way that when they hit Kojiro they would strike him square in the chest and likely pierce right through him as they continued to solidify.

Zume on the other hand, noted the upwards expansion of the dust and created his moving barriers once more, thus time using the remaining 100 movement patterns. This create a secondary sphere of wind around the sphere of rapidly rotating void chakra. When the X of dust engulfed him it would be diverted first by the wind, thrown about, or at the least a gap made around Zume's protective measures, and any that got past that measure would simply be thrown aside and simultaneously blocked by the sphere of rotating voidal patterns.

<font color=""#000000""><span class=""bb-b"">""Check-...""</span></font> he began, waiting to see if Kojiro could evade his attack.</div>"

Kojiro eyes saw a sudden movement coming from the spears, and decided a sacrifice was needed then. It was mostly based on the destruction of his Flowing Wave from earlier that made him determined not to touch Zume's chakra personally if at all possible... in this case 'if at all possible' might sting.

Kojiro waved his opened fan downward with a fluid motion from having opened it, ending with the fan facing him.

Earth Style: Gaia's Breath

Blades of dust, weakly formed, partly from the speed of the technique, partly for convenience formed quickly and slammed into Kojiro, sending him flying downwards towards the ground and under the forming blades at a 135 degree angle sending Kojiro flying downwards at an angle to evade the spears. The spear itself would probably land in the last of the wave upwards probably being sandblasted from existance, or at least thrown upwards. Though at this rate, nothing was going to surprise Kojiro of what Zume was doing.

The technique of Gaia's Breathe hitting Kojiro did minor damage, and though they hurt, the cuts were relatively small, but the technique was made weakly, and aimed mostly at the sheathe of his Kodachi in his robe.

Kojiro looked up to see how Zume would be dealing with the earth sent to cut him to ribbons. He was a bit shocked to see the top of his technique starting to get thrown around everywhere in the sky. Kojiro gave a grudging acknowledgement to Zume. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I couldn't have imagined he'd be so strong. I'm not even sure I could imagine someone being that strong. That technique may be new, but I expected it to be more damaging.""</font>

The technique would keep firing upwards for another few moments, though Kojiro was in no condition to add to it. The dust likely continue to scatter from the sky, covering the entire area in a cloud of dust.

Kojiro swept his tessen under him, softening the ground as he hit it, landing slightly to the side of the massive abyss that had been formed by 
his Mountain Cutter, his sword continuing to draw in the rest of itself to reform, while at the same time drawing in natural energy.

Kojiro smiled a bit.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Well now, this is challenging. I've got to overcome a power I haven't yet been able to imagine, with my chakra low. Glorious. I'm not so helpless anymore though.""</font></div>"

As Kojiro managed to dodge, Zume began his descent, the spear continuing to fly down till it was struck by the final wave. As this occurred the spear was whirled about and upwards in the currents till Zume, rather quickly, tired of watching it. The weapon dematerialized, then emerged as if from nowhere, returning to his hand in its blade form once more.

Zume, having noted Kojiro's location, re-calibrated the sphere that surrounded him. He removed several of its components, changing the size and shape of others to compensate. He then removed himself from it, allowing it to rapidly accelerate downwards towards the Sage. Should he move before it landed, its trajectory would alter to compensate. The attack could only be effectively avoided several moments before it struck.

Zume on the other hand waited. He saw the danger in returning to the ground, but also saw the potential in doing so for his own attacks. He knew Kojiro could track his movements via the dust, though there was less of it in his general vicinity. He knew it could be used for further attacks, but he also knew that he was most deadly when he could attack from mid-range. He began preforming handseals. He could use <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> technique again, but doing so would mean sacrificing a large portion of his chakra, which was risky.

His opponent was running low now, but the man was a sage and with his blade, he could absorb the surrounding natural energy. This would mean that Kojiro could regain his chakra stores in combat, whereas he could not.

Troublesome.</div>"

Kojiro felt Zume's..... things heading down towards him, as well as noting the spear disappearing physically before reappearing in Zume's hand. He felt excited to see Zume now on the offensive. Kojiro figured getting the man to that point was no small task. 

Kojiro took the few moments he had as Zume descended he had to take inventory. He stuff the tessen back into his damaged robe, and ripped off the part of his robe where the sheathe to his Kodachi had been. It was tattered and likely to hurt Kojiro if he kept it on. The sheathe flew off the robe. The ripped robe was tied quickly around his mouth It was only a bit before the.... things were upon him. Kojiro grabbed his Nodachi with both hands, and cut once at the ground beneath him, towards the abyss. The Earth beneath him groaned as he did so.

He stood ready for the movements coming at him.

Mere moments before they would reach him, the earth would collapse, pulling him towards the abyss, and hopefully out the way of the.... things. The earth was steadfast, he could depend on it, it was a much safer abyss than Zume. Kojiro sighed. He didn't have enough chakra to counterattack at the moment. It was boring to sit around making as little action as possible.</div>"

One who played with fire was going to get burned. How ironic, it seemed like she had an ice-type one from his now frozen flame infront of her.

He wondered how she would react to him going a step over?<br/><br/>He wondered if he was going to get a rise out of her with this. The smug little one, who was more than likely his complete equal.

Having noted the bits of earth flying towards her, she altered the constitution of the energy before her and wrapped it around herself before allowing it to separate slightly into beams, which spun around her at high speed.

The Chunnin exams had just been held, and many genin had fought here this day. It was a great thing to grant him access to the Land of Lightning, he wasn't sure he'd get another chance like this again. Of all the kages, he was sure he could handle the rest who he understood. This man though, he was an enigma, even to his own country. Boozing around hadn't gotten him any information, and had even landed him in trouble a few times with the Antare Clan. It made his trip a little depressing. He'd hoped to learn a bit while here, now he'd just have to settle for this.<br/><br/>Of course, his genin had performed well as well during his trip, but that almost seemed like an afterthought compared to what he was hoping for. For now it was just him and the Raikage. In a few moments it would be just him. Kobuto made himself known, though he doubted he was hidden, despite his best effort.

He took in the details of the man's movements, the intricacies of his posture, demeanor and what specifically he had decided to hold.

He was right to do this. The began thumbing through his book in the other direction, the word 'mikabishi' appearing on the back of each page, in the form of a summoning seal. Kobuto had gone through 15 pages. He continued to look down from the walkway on the side overlooking the arena.<br/><br/><font color=""brown"">""Well, I wanted to talk to you about that bad habit we share. If something was to happen to us, what would our lovely assistants think?""</font><br/><br/>Another page turned. Kobuto's face had a grin spread across knowingly across his face. His book was ever so slightly heavier; Genmyou was raising his chakra levels as well. It was a bit odd though, the chakra was...odd. It didn't easily give it's direction as most chakra would due to it's odd shape as it collected in his book. This wasn't going to be as easy as Kobuto had hoped, then again, if it was, it wouldn't be worth doing.

Kobuto's teeth showed as they moved.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Paper Shuriken Jutsu</span><br/><br/>Across a 10 meter radius, the paper shuriken's rained down.

There was little time to consider the man's words while he made his defense, summoning two barrier rods into each hand and flicking his wrist in either direction. They flew down on an angle, he crouched, and preformed the necessary handseals all in the space of three seconds. The resultant technique created a pyramid shaped barrier which covered a relatively small space, keeping the kage inside itself. He weaved several more handseals as he began to speak, <font color=""#626262""><span class=""bb-b"">""Rare is it that someone takes issue with me due to similarities.

To solve it he released the first of two chidori nagashi whilst still within the barrier. He allowed it to take in the electrical energies of the technique and store them within the four metallic barrier rods. He then released the second chidori nagashi, but focused the tendrils of electricity towards the rods themselves. Altering the charge of his chakra as he did so as well as shifting the orientation of the rods, he turned the barrier into a box whilst rising to his feet. The new shape afforded him the room to do so.<br/><br/><font color=""#626262""><span class=""bb-b"">""I think you'll find my assistant quite fine by the end of this.""</span></font></div>"

The action took barely three seconds.<br/><br/>He wasn't however done and he made his move by sending chakra through the ground and into several locations around the battlefield.

He decided after a moment the Raikage seemed comfortable in his new home, and it was best to give him a housewarming gift, when he suddenly felt chakra surging, though Genmyou's chakra made it hard to feel it's direction.

It took less than half a second from the moment it initially hit for it to hit the ground. As soon as the book was on the ground, the attack changed targets as the book attracted chakra towards it, drawing it away from Kobuto. The extremely short time meant the damage had been minimal, but it had still had hit, and his muscles still twitched. <br/><br/>Kobuto ripped off his glove by biting the index finger, and panting, pressed his hand against the wall, half to pour his chakra into the rock wall, half leaning on it for support as he made his way to the right. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Earth Style: Earth Flow Wave</span><br/><br/>The concrete at the top of the building started to gather together, in a wave of earth, on the cieling above Genmyou and shaped itself into a stalactite, before it's weight pulled it down and the stucture fell down on his hole.

He took a step forwards and used his pure anchor to summon the kunai back to himself, which he then substituted with the rods further from his person, positioning them in the air around them. They were floating and emitting a light yellow glow as lightning chakra sparked off of their forms.<br/><br/>He had linked the lightning chakra with his own and attuned it to the rods, thus allowing him to use the small aura of chakra around himself to effectively control the rods telekinetically without disrupting the barrier. The barrier remained a square shape and was about 10 feet tall, giving plenty of room for him to move within it.

He began folding the sheet into squares in his hand. After a two seconds he'd finished and it was at this point that he physically manifested some of his chakra, thus cutting the sheet into 10 smaller pieces. Each was 1x1 inch in size. He then charged the edges of the sheets with his raiton chakra, which he linked to his person. For a split second his barrier flickered. Something that Kobuto might not even notice.<br/><br/>The sheets of paper altered their composition utilizing the transformation technique, making them as hard as iron, though not even vaguely as heavy. They drifted to the ground in various locations around the battlefield, sometimes moving once more at Genmyou's behest. Once they were properly arranged Genmyou suppressed his chakra to its lowest state, giving off only enough to be identical to that given off by the pieces of paper. When he moved, so did the sheets. If he had known genjutsu he would have had them assume his appearance. He could have used the shadow clone technique or transformed them, but one required a fair deal of chakra and the other drained him gradually over time. This whole time, roughly a period of 15 seconds in total, he had continued to slowly supply chakra into his sword.

So nothing I haven't done before.<br/><br/>Now should I render his chakra scattered techniques moot, or study it a bit more? It's a hard decision, letting a man like that have what he wants is always dangerous, but my other option would render me even less able.

Storing a Fuin kakari within his blade and linking the two slots prepared him for his maneuver. Immediately he released raiton chakra into the Fuin kakari and allowed it to transfer into the papers he had hidden. Thus the earth technique was disrupted for a 4 meter radius around each piece of paper. He released the same amount of raiton chakra from his body into the ground around him as well. The maneuver went off in all the locations at the same time, making it impossible to designate which was the source. Then, tapping the tip of his blade to the ground, Genmyou sent a wave of static through the ground, striking the chakra of the earth technique Kobuto was using so as to abuse its affinity weakness. This took place in a space of 6 seconds.<br/><br/>Moving on he tapped the ground once more and arcs of lightning struck out from each of the pieces of paper, and the rods around his form all at once. The bolts struck the paper shuriken surrounding him setting them off and obscuring whatever line of sight Kobuto might have had of Genmyou. Nonetheless, he knew the man could sense him, the question was, how would he cope when there wasn't just one. With this in mind he preformed three sets of handseals, two were seals, and one was a kage bunshin. The seals completed first, then the clone appeared, but strangely its chakra was sealed as it came into existence. It had another seal on its person as well. As it drew its own Seigennashi no ei, the clone began channeling chakra into the blade. The clone's chakra system was sealed completely, except for a seal of the spider bite upon its palm and using a fuin kakari it could channel this chakra into its blade. Genmyou smiled beneath his mask, having essentially created an invisible entity in regards to chakra sensing as there was only one leak from the clone and that leak was a controlled one.<br/><br/>He wondered how this would play out.</div>"

Without a dojutsu, they likely would be completely unnoticed.<br/><br/>Kobuto finished the last seal, and dropped to one knee, appearing to literally fall out the wall. His book fell out his hands open onto the ground. Struggling forward, he grabbed the rail infront of him. His chakra was suddenly weak. Genmyou probably couldn't see him, but he could hear him, and that was good enough. Kobuto liked a bit of psychology, what would the man do when Kobuto, a noted coward, was ready to fight? Of course, Kobuto couldn't sense the clone.<br/><br/><font color=""brown"">""Come, Genmyou. I will show you how a fox fights when cornered. If I hadn't discarded what I didn't need, I would be able to fight now.""</font><br/><br/>A lightly blue wave shot out from infront of Kobuto through the air. It would feel heavy, yet hardly affected even the dust in the air. It also explained where all of Kobuto's chakra went. Chakra no longer flowed towards Kobuto's book, but away from it.</div>"

As he took this path the clone concealed itself utilizing its cloak, turning entirely invisible even to the eye. Its blade continued to fill with chakra as it canceled its emitted sounds by using chakra to dampen and scatter the waves or soften its footfalls as it ran through the cloud of debris towards Kobuto its movements amplified by lightning chakra running through its form. As chakra burst from Kobuto's book the real Genmyou raised his eyebrow, nonetheless he had figured out the man's method of sensing. Nonetheless, the burst, and his words, appeared suspicious and so it was that 4 meters from the statue he planted his barrier rods into the ground and threw a kunai with wire through the cloud of smoke and towards Kobuto, altering its trajectory several times so it would come from his last position rather than his current one.<br/><br/>The rubble was electrically charged.<br/><br/>The clone sped up its chakra flow, sending more chakra into the blade until its own body was nearly empty. <font color=""#626262""><span class=""bb-b"">""At least you know that you're cornered,""</span></font> he said in reply.

Without his book, he couldd focus elsewhere. Kobuto rather expected a grand attack on him. He was rather disappointed by the quietness. Did Genmyou expect to assassinate him? That was... very Kobuto-ish of him.<br/><br/>Kubuto continued listening, hearing a whistling sound combining towards him, and a shadow appearing through the rubble. <br/><br/>Kobuto reacted by kicking his book at it. He was glad it wasn't more, kunai and shuriken were annoying. Honestly, the hardest part of his ninja carrier was before he was a jonin. Chunnin tended to use tools way more. Jonin tended to use less tools. <br/><br/>The kunai would imbed itself in the book, and luckily by accident, it would shove more of it's chakra directly through the wire rather than the air. The book would then fall from the platform, appearing the real Genmyou that Kobuto had jumped down, though his clone would know better. The chakra from his shockwave would also attempt to enter through the hole where the wire connecting to his kunai.<br/><br/>Out of the corner of Kobuto's eyes, he noticed something emerge from the smoke and debris, leaving an empty hole as it left, though once the shape of a man had passed, nothing seemed to be there. Kobuto would have been apt to miss it had he been relying on his book sensing once again.<br/><br/>With a smile, Kobuto threw a smoke bomb down, and yelled:<br/><br/>[color=brown]""I'm totally not going to use that hiding technique again!""<br/><br/>As soon as the smoke was up, he would jump into the tunnel, without any jutsu. He doubted Genmyou would buy the bluff, but messing with him was still fun. He wished he could see his reaction, but the fun thing about a mask was he could imagine it.<br/><br/>His earlier <span class=""bb-i"">shockwave</span> from earlier then took effect.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Jade Books of Heaven: Pure Land Devastation</span><br/><br/>The flow of his book would violently reverse again. All chakra that had spread out from it would mold and combine with whatever sources they could latch onto: jutsu, barriers, seals, equipment. Latching onto those surfaces, when the flow was reverse, they would be ripped out, draining all chakra in the area, and making whatever it touched dry of chakra.<br/><br/>The main escape from this was to disrupt chakra, causing the chakra from the technique to rip out without the rest of the system.<br/><br/>Kobuto was no exeption, and in the dark of his tunnel, he disrupted his own chakra system, a chunk being ripped out before ending. All his techniques around the battlefield would be ripped apart as well.<br/><br/>Kobuto's chakra system took a large blow from casting a large jutsu such as this. With his fairly average reserve, using near all at once put large strain on his chakra points. He would lose his flexibility and chakra control in ninjutsu, and he could only do that particular large jutsu once. Luckily, he had tunnels now. Genmyou didn't know he had lost anything, and he wouldn't know he had jumped into the tunnel either.<br/></div>"

This caused her to fall to the right, allowing her to dodge the strike, the staff slipping through the air above her.<br/><br/>The expression on her face was a bemused one as her body suddenly began to spin, the wind around her picking up and then suddenly igniting, a wave of searing flame spreading from her person. The motion simultaneously stopped her fall, allowing her hand to catch her so she could leverage herself and sweep her leg out in a low swiping kick. Were it to miss flames would follow the movement, sending a wave of wind and flames in the direction of the melee attack.

Chiyome would be left atop her staff, higher than the flames were likely to be. <br/><br/>Chiyome looked straight at Seizetsu as she did, letting out a small electrical current through her staff, into the ground. Chiyome made no effort to stop the woman's movements, feeling the warm air as it heated up. Chiyome noted her clothes not burning... that wasn't a good sign. Then again, Chiyome had a trick or two up her sleeves with fire as well.<br/><br/>""Anymore? What, did you end up shame already?""<br/><br/>Chiyome hoped her lips would draw attention from spark or two in the bottom of her staff.<br/><br/>The electricity would fan out, letting only a small spark to any targets nearby, it was more of a preparatory jutsu than anything.</div>"

The result was not positive as immediately the spark erupted in a flare of light before the flames dimmed somewhat and began rapidly spreading over the structure.<br/><br/>There were several screams, swiftly followed by civilians bursting through the front door to get out of burning building. Seizetsu didn't pay any of it much mind, merely looking at Chiyome as she raised her hand before her, fingers splayed and pointing upwards.

Due to his massive reiryoku his sensory abilities are incredibly potent and because of his practice he is typically able to locate individuals essentially anywhere, unless they are sufficiently skilled to hide their presence completely. Oddly he does not always use this sensory ability, and instead will opt to use his reiryoku for purely energetic means, for utilization in his kido and zanpakuto abilities. Majime's reiryoku, when manifested in its raw form, has three colors, all of which appear to mirror the color of autumn leaves –red, orange, and yellow respectively. His reiryoku has the tendency to move as if it were some ethereal fire, though it actually has a very soothing effect when one touches it. This is of course his reiryoku in its simplest form and thus this soothing does not necessarily apply to any of his kido or zanpakuto abilities.<br/><br/>Incredible Reiatsu(4/4): While his control, or the amount he emits, is not yet quite as great as the sheer amount of reiryoku he possesses, he is still far above many of his rank. This allows him to exert insane amounts of control and precision over his reiatsu and reiryoku. As such he can easily broadcast his location, or suppress his presence to a great extent if he so chooses to do so. When entirely unrestrained, or raging, Majime's reiatsu can take several forms. Sometimes it will almost look as if there is a storm of energy and autumn colored leaves whirling about his form, this state is only seen when he is enraged or in an incredibly intense emotional state, or perhaps in bankai. The second stat is the appearance of calmly blowing leaves of autumn colors moving around him or in a particular direction, this is what is normally displayed.<br/><br/>Incredible Kido Power(4/4): Fitting to the amount of reiryoku, and control of his reiatsu, that Majime has, his kido power is especially potent. He is capable of immense shows of power all the way up the ranks of hado and bakudo, as well as some unnamed spells. Additionally, his control of his power and the kido itself is especially notable as he can bend such almost entirely to his will or whim as he so chooses.<br/><br/>Pathetic Zanjutsu(0/4): Well, he just didn't bother to put much of any time into this. However, he has studied it somewhat, allowing him to understand how various movements and techniques are executed. Beyond that there's nothing really notable here.<br/><br/>Poor Offense(0/4): Nope.<br/>Poor Defense(0/4): Nope.<br/>Average Physical Strength(2/4): While he possesses no technique in either offense or defense, and only the most rudimentary of skills in zanjutsu, he does have average physical strength. So yeah...there's that.<br/><br/>Pathetic Hakuda(0/4): Well, he just didn't bother to put much of any time into this. However, he has studied it somewhat, allowing him to understand how various movements and techniques are executed. Beyond that there's nothing really notable here.<br/><br/>Poor Offense(0/4): Nope.<br/>Poor Defense(0/4): Nope.<br/>Poor Physical Strength(0/4): Nope.<br/><br/>Kidō Legend(5/4): Despite his few years in the gotei thirteen, Majime has managed to accumulate what amounts to complete mastery of the arts of kido. He is capable of casting every known kido without its incantation, and when he does use their chant you better watch out because what follows is likely an attack of twice its normal magnitude. His mastery and understanding of kido is so great that he can mould new spells on the spot, though at current time they are not as stable as a kido that has been tested and refined sufficiently.<br/><br/>Incredible Intelligence(4/4): While he does not appear to be on the surface, Majime is an incredibly observant person who absorbs knowledge like a sponge absorbs water, and like a fat man consumes food. He is very skilled at figuring out how things work almost at a glance and he is capable of analyzing people to a fair degree. Still, he is no psychologist and so can only draw on certain small amounts of said field that he has read over the years. While he is certainly intelligent it is apparent that it his memory which is his strength for Majime seems to almost never forget, making him very difficult to trick in regards to events that have happened. As such it is somewhat easier for him to pick up cues due to things he has seen before relating to things he takes in now. After all, it is all about one's connections.<br/><br/>Incredible Knowledge(5/4): When it comes to knowledge, Majime has quite a bit of it, and he's gathering more every day. He pours over books just like he did in life, and so has continued to do so even whilst a spirit. It should be noted that his knowledge of the Rei is exceptional, though not above others who have studied as long as he has. Still, the fact that he has such a complete mastery of the mechanics of the Rei despite the short amount of time that he's been in Soul Society is rather astounding.<br/><br/>Pathetic Hohō(1/4): Somewhat due to small traces of the illness his human body possessed, Majime is particularly lacking in the section of hoho. In fact, he is at the moment incapable of its use at all. This may however, change with time.<br/><br/>Legendary Mobility(5/4): Unlike his hoho, Majime has spent due time improving his agility and other physical skills in relation o movement. Otherwise he would have long died in combat due to an inability to dodge and evade whilst furiously casting his weapon of choice: kido. As such he is entirely capable of maneuvering around anyone with less skill than he, and for those of greater skill he can still follow and react, though to a lesser extent than equals or lessers.<br/><br/>Reir: 5(mod2)=8<br/>Zan: 0(mod3)=1<br/>Hak: 0(mod3)=1<br/>Kid: 5(mod2)=8<br/>Hoh: 1(mod1)=1<br/><br/>Total T: 11<br/>Total S: 19+5(24)</div></div></div>"

Our students live within dorms that feel move like home. Each dorm is guarded and secure. Our dorm leaders, the Heads of the House, pride themselves on caring for the students and forming family bonds with them.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Ties &amp; Ribbons</div></div>

All students must wear ties or ribbons that match their flame color regardless of grade level. <font color=""#f7941d"">Orange</font>, <font color=""#ed1c24"">Red</font>, <font color=""#fff79a"">Yellow</font>, <font color=""#39b54a"">Green</font>, <font color=""#0076a3"">Blue</font> or <font color=""#a187be"">Purple</font> (or pastel variants or elementary aged students) are allowed.

All ties and ribbons must be worn properly and may not be loose, untied or absent. This will count against the allowed dress code.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Rings</div></div>

All students’ middle school aged and up must carry their rings on them at all times. Elementary level students do not have rings yet. Students are allowed to wear the rings of their respective families but there are simple rings that the school will provide if the students are unable to use their family rings. 

Any students caught abusing the power of their rings/flames will be immediately suspended. Any further actions regarding expulsion will depend on the severity of the crime.

Upon entry to Durante all students are tested for their flames. 


<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Attendance</div></div>

All students are required to attend class. 


<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>3 unexcused absences will result in a detention. Unexcused absences are reported to the Heads of the House. A student may be excused from class by the Head of the House or school doctor. They must provide a note upon attending classes once more.</li><li>4 or more unexcused absences will result in two days of detention and/or make up time with the teacher.</li><li>7 or more unexcused absences will result in a weeks’ worth of detention, a letter home, and a meeting with the Head of House, Headmaster and teacher.</li></ul> 

Tardiness is frowned upon at Durante. 3 tardies make up one unexcused absence and count towards the unexcused absence rules.  Students 5 to 10 minutes late to a class are considered tardy. 



<div class=""bb-h3""><div class=""bb-center"">Dormitory Rules and Requirements</div></div>

All students must live on campus in the dormitories provided. Students whose families live on Durante Island are no exception. We take great care in providing the best comfort, care and safety for our students; the dormitories are guarded around the clock by a dedicated group of people called the ""D.P"" or Durante Police. They also patrol around the campus and town. 

<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Younger students must live with a family member. Durante believes that family is the most important thing and we pride ourselves in teaching generations of the same family; any younger student who does not have a family member attending the school will be appointed two temporary guardians - the Head of House and a ""big brother or sister"".</li><li>Any who are interested in signing up for the ""Big Brother and Sister"" or BBS program must fill out an application and turn it into the Headmaster within the first two weeks of the beginning semester. The BBS program lasts until the BB/BS has graduated or one of the students is pulled from Durante.</li><li>Alcohol, drugs and parties are prohibited. Any students caught with drugs or alcohol will be suspended for a minimum of one week, plus make ups for missed classes. We operate on a “three strike” basis – three complaints of evidence of drugs or alcohol and you will be expelled.</li><li>Field trips to Mafia Land are allowed and usually entire dormitories go at a time.</li><li><font color=""#ed1c24"">In the case of emergencies there are emergency telephones within the living room of each dormitory.</font></li><li>There is a maximum of 14 students per dormitory, plus the Head of House.</li><li>All dormitories are co-ed. Any sexual activities reported to the D.P or Headmaster will result in expulsion. You are here to learn, not to sleep around.</li><li>There are required bi-weekly safety meetings for every dormitory.</li><li>The dormitories are not separated according to age, family or flame. Here at Durante you put aside your differences and concentrate on your schooling. They are separated by their location around the campus. 
     <ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>North Dorms- Located along the northern side of the campus.</li><li>East Dorms- Located along the eastern side of the campus.</li><li>West Dorms-Located along the western side of the campus.</li><li>South Dorms- Located along the southern side of the campus.</li></ul></li><li>All dormitories are fully furnished, this includes a small library and study rooms.</li><li>All dormitory kitchens are fully stocked and students are allowed to cook their own meals or eat lunch in the cafeteria.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Sports and Cultural Events</div></div>

All students are encouraged to participate in one extracurricular activity but not required. We want to expand your talents and capabilities by offering you many different chances to do so. 
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Our clubs are run by the students themselves.</li><li>Applications for new clubs can be turned in to the Student Committee.</li><li>There are weekly meetings outside of class time for each club.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Student Committee</div></div>

The Student Committee is a large part of the Durante student culture. Although the Student Committee is a club in it's own right, it takes on the task of listening to the students and providing them with what they need. The Student Committee is lead by the Student President, one of the older students who has demonstrated dedication to bringing the students of Durante the best. There are yearly elections for the Student President. 

All Student Committee members wear small pins on the left side of their uniforms. 

The Student Committee performs a wide variety of services to Durante:
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Managing the clubs and club finances</li><li>Setting up and planning the Cultural Festival and other events like dances.</li><li>Ensures that the students' ideas are listened to for special events.</li><li>Organizes ""Parent Night""</li></ul></div>"

<sup>Age: 16 // Flame: Rain // Weapon: Tessen</sup></div>
<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""https://41.media.tumblr.com/7e2758d665642882c83c776b74d16160/tumblr_njbbgnQSkm1rzxczio1_250.png""/> <img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/fbd56cd999f77075c8dca43a3e5f890e/tumblr_njbbgnQSkm1rzxczio2_250.png""/> <img src=""https://41.media.tumblr.com/d4723a3a61c83d9c4816c398f3118153/tumblr_njbbgnQSkm1rzxczio3_250.png""/></div>

Cheerful and polite, Vitalia is a young woman who lives a simple but otherwise uneventful life. With two rambunctious younger siblings, she usually takes on the role of a second mother when she gets home from school until the time her parents return from work. Needless to say, she’s managed to build up some solid patience and compassion over the years of taking care of her little brother and sister, and her temper threshold is quite high. 

Vitalia’s really quite a relaxed individual, and tries to keep an open mind when it comes to meeting new people or trying new experiences. She likes to go with the flow and is essentially a follower, which unfortunately means that she’s not a very assertive person. On the contrary, she can be quite the pushover, and will more than likely let others take the reins whenever possible. She finds it hard to say no to people, and can be indecisive when asked to make a choice.

Although she’s always willing to lend an ear or shoulder to anyone who needs it, Vitalia has trouble accepting the same from other people. She likes to tell herself that she can solve any issue that is plaguing her on her own, but that’s rarely true. Instead, she tends to bottle up her own concerns and feelings, and is more likely to try avoiding her problems rather than try to face them head on. If one were to ask her how she was, they would be hard-pressed to ever receive an answer other than “I’m fine!” unless they were someone especially close to her. Even then, it’d likely take a bit of gentle nudging.

Age: 16 | Flames: Lightning | Weapon: Knuckledusters 

Always a protector, she would come home with scrapes and small bruises from sticking up to the bullies. Her mother and father had always thought she was a clumsy child. She lived a happy and simple life with frequent trips to visit her mother's family that had moved to another country. She enjoys new things and people due to the influence of her travels. 

Nova is a high energy person with a bad habit to day dream and to talk before she thinks. This often leaves her to butting heads with others because she can be blunt. Nova loves to people watch but it's a hobby that comes across as creepy; to her it is interesting to see how people interact with their environment.</div></div>"
18582,Durante Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-07 01:11:00,Fiorella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When he received a text from Tsuna saying that Reborn wanted all of them to meet at the brunette boy’s house, Yamamoto thought little of it. Having meetings at Tsuna’s house to discuss Vongola-related matters had become pretty commonplace, <span class=""bb-i"">especially</span> as of the last month or so. For whatever reason, Reborn had abruptly decided to gather them together once a week so that he could give them all a crash course on some of the other famiglias that were out there. Things like their names, who their boss and chosen successor was, and so on—the basics, really.

(Truthfully, Yamamoto hoped that the Arcobalenco didn’t intend on testing them on their knowledge. He felt hard pressed to remember much about the <span class=""bb-i"">last</span> group they learned about, never mind they ones they discussed weeks prior.)

When the boy arrived at his friend’s house that day, he assumed that the meeting would follow the same vein as the last few had. The <span class=""bb-i"">last</span> thing he would have thought Reborn would announce was that they’d be transferring to an academy meant especially for Mafioso. Apparently everything was already done too—their parents had been given a suitable excuse, all the necessary papers had been sent in, and here! He even had everyone’s letters of acceptance to give them. 

Poor Tsuna had nearly overturned his table as he stood up and gestured wildly, brown eyes wide in panic as he protested over this new development. Chrome, who had been seated with her back against the bed, seemed to have frozen in place, her gaze completely blank in shock. Yamamoto didn’t take the time to gauge anyone else’s reaction as he folded his arms across his chest and quietly lost himself to his own thoughts.

He wasn’t entirely sure how to take the news. His main concern would have been finding a way to tell his dad, but that had already been done for him. That being said, suddenly being uprooted and sent off to a new school? <span class=""bb-i"">That</span> was a lot to take. He couldn’t deny that it would provide them with a good opportunity to hone their skills, and a change in scenery was always nice, but…

After taking a bit of time to weigh the pros and cons in his head, the rain guardian’s tensed shoulders relaxed, the corners of his mouth pulling into a bright smile. Alright, he had come to a decision. <font color=""dodgerblue"">”Sounds like fun to me!”</font> He laughed, reaching out to take his acceptance letter from Reborn and glancing down at it, <font color=""dodgerblue"">”So this place…’Durante Academy’, huh? I sure hope they have a baseball club.”</font>
<div class=""bb-center"">***</div>
<font color=""lightblue"">”W-wait, I…I got it? Are you sure!?”</font>

Vitalia’s hand was trembling as the sheet of paper was passed over to her. Looking up at her mother’s beaming face, she immediately dropped her eyes onto the letter, heart thrumming in her chest as she skimmed the dark ink that decorated the page.
“Dear Ms. Floros,

     I am pleased to inform you that we would like to welcome you to—”

—and that was about as far as she got before she hastily thanked her mother, excused herself, and went rushing upstairs to grab her cellphone. Though she would read the letter with more care later, those first few words were enough to get the message across: <span class=""bb-i"">she had been accepted</span>. Vitalia had played with the idea of applying to an international school for ages now, but it wasn’t until this year that she had actually sat down with her parents and discussed it. She had had plenty of concerns, especially when it came to who would care for her younger siblings, but both her mother and father had encouraged her to apply. They assured her that they’d find someone to babysit her siblings in her absence, feeling that the experience of attending school in another country would be beneficial for her.

In the end, a large part of her motivation to apply could be attributed to Nova. The knowledge that her friend would be trying to get into the same school gave her the push she needed to fill out all those forms and get everything together. Living in dorms in a foreign country with a friend? It was like a dream come for many sixteen year old girls, and Vitalia was no exception.

Needless to say, she felt the overwhelming desire to tell her friend the news—and to hopefully hear the same from her. Sitting down on her bed, Vitalia gingerly set the letter down on her lap before grabbing her phone and dialing Nova’s number. As soon as the first ring sounded, the girl grinned in excitement.

<font color=""lightblue"">”Ahh, pick up soon, Nova!”</font></div>"
18583,Durante Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-12 06:53:00,Sunflower,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was normal for the silver haired boy to enter the Tenth's home without knocking; Nana never liked the boys to feel like they were guests. She treated them like family and well, most people called her mama. Upon entering the kitchen he was greeted by the brunette woman. Her hair had grown a little bit longer over the years that he got to know her. 

""Hello Hayato. Tsuna's up in his room."" Nana smiled before looking back down at the vegetables she was cutting on the cutting board. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Thank you ma'am.""</font> he said with a polite bow before heading up stairs. Halfway up the stairs something - correction, two things latched onto the backs of his legs and almost knocked him off balance. He looked over his shoulder at what had grabbed him, he gave an annoyed sound. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Stupid cow!""</font> he tried to pry the little boy off of his leg but Lambo wouldn't budge.

<font color=""#a2d39c"">""Stupidera!""</font> Lambo said as he circled his arms tighter around the teen's leg. <font color=""#a2d39c"">""Tell I-pin that the great Lambo is better than her!""</font>

The little girl gripping his opposite leg yelled something at the little boy in Chinese. Gokudera could only assume that it was some sort of insult, if the reaction of the boy was anything to go by, but Lambo usually blew things out of proportion all of the time so he didn't know if it was true or not. The silver haired boy wormed the arms of the children, who were too busy bickering to notice, from around his legs before heading up to Tsuna's room. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Hey Tenth!""</font>

A short time later the rest of the guardians, including the stupid cow and except for Hibari, had gathered in Tsuna's room and they were given the news. 

Gokudera was quiet for a few moments until it clicked in his mind that they were going to a different school.  he cried as the brunette boy stood up and a babble of mixed words bubbled from his throat. For once Gokudera was pretty calm, which was rare. 

Next to him Ryohei was shouting. <font color=""#aba000"">""Alright! A new school to the EXTREME! This is going to be EXTREMELY fun!""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">""SHUT UP TURF TOP!""</font> Gokudera growled as he turned on the older boy next to him. Damn did he need a cigarette right about now but Nana didn't like the fact that he smoked and he had enough respect for the woman to not smoke in her home. 

He glared at his acceptance letter before turning his attention to the black haired Rain Guardian. Like always he seemed to be alright with everything. Gokudera was a bit excited for this new opportunity, he wanted to know about the other famiglias and he wanted them to all know that he had the best boss in the world (so he really just wanted to go there to brag about Tsuna.) 

<div class=""bb-center"">~*~</div>


The loud, semi-annoying ring the cellphone on her nightstand brought her out of what could possibly be the best dream ever. With a zombie groan of disapproval and irritation the girl reached over and blinked a few times before answering the phone. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Mmm...'ello?""</font> The sleepy mumble that came from the girl quickly faded into light snores for a few seconds until she perked in recognition of the voice. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""Hey Vita...why are you calling at this time, It's still early you know.""</font> Never mind the fact that it was almost noon. 

The girl rubbed her sleepy gray eyes as she looked around the room for something to drink. She usually kept a water bottle (okay so sometimes it held juice) on hand so she didn't have to attempt to walk down stairs at night and almost trip going down the stairs. Once was enough for her to learn that bringing the liquids to her was the best solution for everyone. 

A simple snow colored envelope on her nightstand caught her attention. It probably had been placed under her cellphone by her mother. The girl almost slid off the edge of her bed as she reached for the envelope. She skimmed over the letter and in her sleepy state she could care less about the name of the school. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Yaaay.""</font> The sleepy, monotone zombie groan that escaped her lips was enough to have her mother knocking at the door.

""Nova, is everything alright?"" Her mother's slightly worried voice called from the other side of the door. Her daughter had always been a clumsy child and not a day passed that she would wind up with a bruise or a scrape. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""I was accepted. Yaaay.""</font>

She tossed her arms into the air weakly before settling down against the warm indent on her bed. 

Her mother gave a soft chuckle, ""Well be sure to call your father to tell him."" Nova's father was away on business for a week and a half and it was a shame that he had to miss such a wonderful event. 


<font color=""#8dc73f"">""Did you get in too, Vita?""</font></div>"
18584,Durante Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-14 07:03:00,Fiorella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">For all his complaining and bargaining, everyone—even Tsuna himself—knew full well that the young Vongola Deicmo wasn’t getting anywhere with Reborn. Once the baby hitman decided on something, there was no changing his mind. Even if they had decided to go for the democratic route, from the looks of things, it seemed as if the majority of the guardians were taking the news surprisingly well—rather positively, in fact.

The room was a cacophony of yelling and laughter, with much of the latter coming from Yamamoto. He always enjoyed how lively things were when they all gathered like this. If anything, it would have made him feel more unsettled had they been having a quiet, collected discussion right now. The last few times he could remember being a part of such a meeting had been during serious times of dire danger and stress. Because of that, he had come to associate all this noise with times of peace, since they didn’t have room to be so carefree otherwise.

Noting that a certain bomber was looking at him, Yamamoto turned to grin at the other boy. <font color=""dodgerblue"">”So I guess that was what those lessons Reborn gave us were for, huh?”</font> Lifting a hand, he sheepishly scratched at the back of his neck before continuing, <font color=""dodgerblue"">”To be honest, I’m having some trouble remembering a couple—”</font>—correction, all—<font color=""dodgerblue"">”—of the families we discussed so…I’ll be looking to you for guidance.”</font>

He let out a laugh, feeling no shame in admitting that he had pretty much forgotten everything. He was sure that Gokudera had retained more of the information than any of them anyways.

At that point, Tsuna <span class=""bb-i"">finally</span> gave up with trying to argue with Reborn. When the boy slumped down beside Yamamoto with a groan, the rain guardian cheerfully pat his friend on the back. <font color=""dodgerblue"">”Cheer up! Think of it as a school exchange or something! It’ll be fun!”</font> He chirped, ever the beacon of positivity. 

Beside them, Lambo threw his arms up in the air and yelled that he was going to conquer his class and make them all his subordinates. Although it didn’t look like he had fully grasped the lightning guardian’s words, Yamamoto’s smile spread even wider. <font color=""dodgerblue"">”See? Lambo is excited too!”</font>

Vitalia perked up with her friend answered, only for the other girl’s greeting to startle a laugh out of her. To be completely fair, she knew the feeling of sleeping until noon all too well, and always relished in being able to do so. <font color=""lightblue"">”Haha, sorry for waking you up! I just have some exciting news to share is all!”</font>

She bounced a little on her bed as if unable to contain herself, but she remained silent when she heard shuffling noises from the line. Wondering if she should wait until Nova was a little more awake to discuss this, she cocked her head to the side at the flat, slightly drawn-out “yay”. It wasn’t until a moment later—after she heard the faint voice of Nova’s mother—did she realize what the sleepy exclamation must have been in response to.

As soon as her hunch was confirmed, Vitalia’s lips curved into a smile. <font color=""lightblue"">”Yes, I did!”</font> She replied, glancing down at the letter in her lap and running her fingers over the page, <font color=""lightblue"">”I’m so glad that we both got in! I definitely think that I’ll be a little homesick, but I should be okay since you’ll be there with me, and—”</font>

She suddenly fell silent as she forcibly stopped herself. Sucking in a deep breath, she held it for a few seconds before letting it out with an audible “woosh”. Feeling a little more collected now, she ducked her head and let out a short, embarrassed laugh. <font color=""lightblue"">”Sorry to be so rambunctious when you’ve just woken up. This has just really made my day.”</font>

Though now that she knew they had both gotten in, Vitalia realized that there was a lot of planning that had to be done. Packing, buying things they’d need, letting the necessary people know that they’d be leaving—a new list of responsibilities had materialized as soon as she had read her acceptance letter. Ever the stickler for planning things, she immediately reached for the notepad and bed on her bedside table so that she could jot down a list of things she would need to buy and to do in preparation for leaving.

<font color=""lightblue"">”Mm, I really don’t know what to expect. This will be my first time living in a dorm. You too, right, Nova?”</font></div>"
18585,Durante Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-19 06:36:00,Sunflower,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Gokudera's cheeks heated in the palest of pinks at the dark haired boy's words.<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Of course! What kind of right hand would I be if I couldn't remember anything about the families?!</font>"" Gokudera held up a fist and growled.  He was proud of the fact that he was smart. He was proud of the fact that his tutors in his younger years taught him the importance of having a good education since it meant benefitting the family as a whole. Although he never spoke or acted like it, he did love this mismatched, patchwork family that Tsuna and Reborn had created. 

He patted Tsuna on the back as the boy slumped in defeat and he gave a few encouraging words that had been interrupted by Nana, Bianchi (who was wearing a pair of large sunglasses) and I-pin. 

Nana was smiling gently as she set down the food she had been making, Bianchi brought the plates and cups and I-pin brought the napkins. They were laid out on the small table in the middle of Tsuna's room. ""I thought we could all eat lunch together."" Nana said in a soft voice. She was straining to keep her voice in check. Gokudera caught the tone and the look in her eyes while almost everyone seemed to skim past those little details. 

The food was passed around and soon things grew lively again. Even Gokudera was laughing. 

But Nana's strained smile was still there.


<div class=""bb-center"">~*~</div>


""<font color=""#8dc73f"">Uh-huh. I've stayed with my cousins before in hotels when we'd go travelling so I guess it'd be something like that.</font>"" Nova rolled onto her stomach as she reached for a picture of her cousins that she kept on her small night stand. Her mother's sister, her aunt, was very dear to Nova and they used to visit all of the time when she was younger but when her aunt died unexpectedly things changed and for a little while they didn't visit as much as they used to. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""We'll be able to meet all sorts of people.""</font>

She kept in touch with her cousins and almost every summer she and her parents would travel to visit them. The last few summers became harder as her cousins grew up and branched off to do their own things and she couldn't visit them for long. Nova sighed before placing the picture back on the night stand. She rested her chin on her pillow and a small smile came to her face. <font color=""#8dc73f"">""And we'll be able to learn so much about other countries and we'll make all sorts of new friends.""</font>

Nova was excited but her heart was thumping nervously in her chest. There was a tiny part of her that wondered if her mom and dad would be okay. She was an only child. There would be no one here to keep her mom company when her dad was out on business. Her mom was a quiet woman with a few friends who all lived in different countries. 

<font color=""#8dc73f"">""What about your siblings. Have your parents found someone to watch them?""</font></div>"
18586,Durante Academy,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-03-01 04:37:00,Fiorella,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Gokudera’s confident reply earned a loud, relieved laugh from the rain guardian. <font color=""dodgerblue"">”Oh, good! Then I’ll rely on you for that, Gokudera-kun!”</font> He grinned, setting his hands flat against the ground and leaning back, <font color=""dodgerblue"">”It sounds pretty exciting though, huh? Getting to meet other families sounds great!”</font> They were already acquainted with a pretty good number of families—in fact, the number of allies the Vongola had gained since Tsuna first met Reborn was pretty impressive—though their initial meeting with some of them had been a little…rocky. Their relationship with the Shimon Famiglia in particular had been quite the uphill climb.

Yamamoto grimaced as the location of his past wound—courtesy of one of Shimon’s guardian—seemed to throb at the memory. He definitely held no ill will to the other boy for the attack, but damn. Those had been some harrowing times.

With Nana’s arrival, he focused on having lunch with everyone instead. Moving to sit around the small table, the boy merrily chatted with (or rather, at) the still-sticken Tsuna about their upcoming trip. Unlike their keen-eyed storm guardian, Yamamoto was not immediately aware of his friend’s mother’s distress. He had been too distracted to notice that the woman didn’t seem quite as bright and cheerful as usual.

Eventually, however, his gaze did momentarily flicker towards her. For his friendly and seemingly dense disposition, the boy really wasn’t as thick as some people tended to assume. Perhaps he could be a little oblivious to certain matters, but not when they concerned other people and their feelings. Perking up at the realization that Nana’s smile appeared strained, the excitement on his face flickered for a moment before he directed a grin towards her.

<font color=""dodgerblue"">”Thank you for all the food, it’s as delicious as ever! We’re definitely looking forward to having it again once we’re back, haha!”</font>

***

At the mention of hotels, Vitalia let out a little hum. She had only gone on trips with her family before, so she supposed she couldn’t liken her own hotel stays to what it’d be like to live in a dorm. For a teenage girl, living with friends was completely different from living with one’s parents or her younger siblings—it was a completely different experience, and one that she was really excited to see for herself. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”Yeah! I hope we’ll manage to make a lot of friends there too.”</font> She could just imagine all the people they’d meet. She wanted to learn firsthand about different cultures, and she as sure that someone at their school would be interested to learn about where they were from as well. They wouldn’t only be given the opportunity to further their studies at this school, but they’d get to broaden their world knowledge as a whole. By the time they came back, she was sure that they’d be much more mature and knowledgeable.

…Er, hopefully. That was the ideal, anyways.

At the mention of her siblings, Vitalia’s shoulders drooped slightly. <font color=""lightblue"">”Ah…yeah. They did manage to find someone! I just feel a little…weird going off and leaving them alone, you know?”</font> Setting down the pen that she had been absently jotting notes with, she let out a sigh. This was followed shortly after by a dry laugh. <font color=""lightblue"">”I kind of feel like a mom whose kids are leaving the nest for the first time, only it’s the mom that’s leaving in this case.”</font> She knew that her parents would be there as always in the evening to take care of her siblings, but still. At the very least, she’d definitely miss them a lot.

Trying to shake off the layer of melancholy that seemed to have draped over her, the girl forced herself to brighten up again. <font color=""lightblue"">”But hey, let’s go out together and buy some stuff we’ll need, okay?”</font></div>"

Even the newspaper...it'd have all the latest news on the mafia world.

Some of the clubs like the martial arts and kendo clubs are more about learning fighting styles~ The art club is going to be interesting because most of the kids in that club are learning how to use art as a means of getting information around without it being detected (by literally hiding it in the art.)

He's always on the look out for people who would benefit the family in some way. Even if they could never become guardians (they'd be more like back-ups just in case) they would still have some use for the family. 

Maybe they had been applying to an international school and Reborn had been keeping tabs on them for a while. It sounds a bit crazy and creepy but Reborn seems to scout for people specifically to join the family.</div>"

They applied for an international school --&gt; Reborn swapped out the papers --&gt; boom, accepted to Durante?</div>"
18603,Durante Academy,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76240-durante-academy,['1x1'],2015-02-06 10:47:00,Sunflower,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">I was thinking that they would have been related to someone way down the line. Their respective ancestors probably weren't guardians or anything major (they could have been) but rather some of the other people close to the boss (not relatives because that would have put a kink into everything) or from the early Varia (assuming that it's been around longer than Xanxus). 

I really like that you kind of read my mind on the whole flame thing~ They just wouldn't have been descendants of former Vongola members that he was looking for, they would have strong abilities in their own rights that would have benefited the Vongola. 

So I was reading this 'guide' on flames and how they fit into the KHR universe and it was really helpful. 

So flame users are pretty much always with the mafia (and its hereditary- Bianchi and Gokudera both have storm flames and likely got it from their father) and they always have a job within the mafia that fits with their flame. Typically the ones with the flames become the guardians but look at the Varia - they aren't guardians.

Take Gokudera and Lambo for example. Since both are guardians they have the most obvious jobs - protecting the family. 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">As is true for all flames, Storm flames don't dictate personality, but a job within their family that is usually tied in with their fighting style. To be a Storm Guardian is to be the center of offense.</blockquote>

So Gokudera is the guy that is there to take out as many as the enemy numbers as he can in order to either make things easier for his family or to keep them safe. He role is to be ""continuously at the center of the attack, the furious storm that never rests."" 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">The job for the Lighting Flame users is that of defending the rest of the group. The great thing about Lighting Flames is that they can be used for both offense and defense—generally defense when others in the group are being threatened and offense when they are on their own.</blockquote>

Lambo has a shield and if you look at Ganauche III, the 9th's Lightning Guardian he uses his ring to create a shield of lightning flames. Lambo or any lightning user for that matter, is there to protect everyone. His role is to To draw damage to himself and away from the rest of the Family, serving as a lightning rod."" Shields to that in battle. 

Since your character is a Rain flame user her job would to be to keep conflict down.

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Rain flame users are supposed to be able to ease conflict, but as you can tell—like in regular human beings—they don't always have the personality to fit the part. However, settling conflicts does not have to be done as a 'calming agent' a la Momiji from Fruits Basket. Squalo, for instance, settles conflicts by intimidating people into submission. So long as your OC can keep a conflict down, whether within their family or in inter-family relations, they fit the role no matter what personality they have.</blockquote>
<span class=""bb-s"">I think Squalo should have been the mom, not Luss....</span>


Their jobs for the Vongola are pretty simple - they don't need to have their flames at the center. As long as their flames fulfill their 'roles' then everything will be just fine (Examples would be that Gokudera - a storm flame user (although he uses 5 different types his storm flame is the strongest) couldn't take on Yamamoto's job of keeping the peace and vice versa.) They could be informants, spies, or even go-betweens for Tsuna and the Varia. 

If we decide that in the future they'd be go-betweens then their roles are pretty simple - your character is the one to keep things between Tsuna and Xanxus calm and generally just easier for everyone while my character would be the one to protect yours (in case of emergencies because there would be times when they need to go to where the Varia and some action are going down) and together they could form something similar to Hibari's Foundation - an outside force that offers assistance.

Their jobs (in regards to their flames) would be fulfilled <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> they would have importance that Reborn would have notice that the family needs.


So it's almost 4am here and I keep rambling..

<a href=""http://tehstraw.deviantart.com/art/So-You-Want-to-Make-a-KHR-OC-2-Flames-339572171"">Here's the little guide thing.</a>

I dropped off to sleep because it was so late, and after waking up at my desk I just dragged my butt to bed. That being said...

But have I never told you that you're brilliant? <span class=""bb-i"">Because you're brilliant.</span> 

Thank you for the link on the flame info! It was super informative, and I found myself reading through the whole thing since it served to be such a useful refresher. It was really nice to see everything laid out like that in terms of all the different flame users in canon and how they fit their roles in different ways. Very interesting!

I also like your idea of what their possible roles would be in the future! It gives us an idea of where we'd go with character development/plots that might come up. I think that really nicely wraps up the issue of how they would have been found by Reborn and brought to the school in the first place as well! 

(Also your OC looks super fun so far! C: I think all the characters will have an interesting dynamic together, that's for sure!)</div>"

Hm was there anything else that we needed to discuss?  Oh...yeah the first arc! (I'll edit the reserved arc spot with this information) 

• Reborn intercepts applications and switches them to Durante. With Tsuna's group he just goes behind their backs and enrolls them all at Durante (or he discussed it with the parents and Bianchi beforehand.)

• Everyone arrives at Durante. He opening ceremony happens (it's pretty kuch a giant orientation for the new students) 

• Within the first week of school our ocs notice that well Durante is different. Tsuna and the others adapt pretty well.

This is all I have for our first arc. I have a slight tendency to get a tiny bit controlling over how things play out  (since most of the time I'm the gm of almost all of my roleplays) but lay any ideas ypu have on me! I'm pretty open to anything and I love it when partners contribute their own ideas and it becomes more than just a simple story~ 

I'm unsure how they'd meet Tsuna ans his friends. Did you have any ideas for this?</div>"

I don't think you sound controlling rather than just assertive and good at taking the initiative, which is always important to progress a roleplay! 

As for how they meet Tsuna and the others, I guess any number of ways would work! If they share any classes/clubs (which they might decide to try attending with the hope that say, the cooking club sounds pretty benign and unlikely to be crazy like everything else), they could meet one of the members through that? Though it's a pretty big school, huh? 

Considering Reborn's decided role in this little plot, I'm sure he'd make an effort to orchestrate some kind of meeting between them and the Vongola. It seems most likely that he'd send Tsuna to them first and play it off as some kind of coincidence that they met. Maybe they happen to share a common class and Reborn pulled some more strings (...or was suddenly the teacher of said class) and forced them together in a group for the day? Tsuna is the most likely to act unnerved/scared by the insanity in the school too, so maybe the girls will think they've found a kindled spirit in him at first, haha!

Aw, I like your OC!</div>"

Abilities- She feeds off of the life force of others. She achieves this mostly by touching their flesh. The feeding process is a lot faster if she kisses them but she doesn’t like to do it. When she feeds, the after effects are that the other person experiences some level of drowsiness. 
One small ability is that she has is a melodic call she can make that is like singing. It attracts various males from multiple species but only works for a very short time.
 Appearance changes-	She has cream colored, feather wings for ears. Some small feathers grow along with her hair giving her a cream spotted appearance.

Mara Farraige

16

Female

Mermaid | also called Merrow(Irish)

Deriving from the Gaelic word murúch the Merrow is the Irish equivalent of the mermaid and mermen of other traditions. These beings are said to appear as human from the waist up but have the body of a fish from the waist down. They have a gentle, modest, affectionate and benevolent disposition.There are other names pertaining to them in Gaelic - Muir-gheilt, Samhghubha, Muidhuachán, and Suire. They would seem to have been around for millenia because according to the bardic chroniclers, when the Milesians first landed on Irish shores the Suire, or sea-nymphs, played around them on their passage. The merrow were capable of attachment to human beings and there are reports of them inter-marrying and living among humans for many years. However usually they eventually return to their former homes beneath the sea. They are closely related to the Sirens of Greek Mythology. 
 
Mara is very shy and kind though she is so shy to the point where she can't really talk in front of other people. Having not socialized with anyone outside of her family left Mara with no knowledge on how to relate to others and so she hardly ever knows what to say or how to act. She tends to blurt a lot of things out without realizing it or thinking about her words. She also gets embarrassed and flustered way too easily; often blushing and hiding her face. Being as innocent as she is to the world, she trusts way too easily and is oblivious about a lot of stuff, especially when it comes to flirting/love or basically any interest thrown her way. She can be very insecure about herself and her body and she tends to second-guess herself a lot. Mara can become upset very easily and is very sensitive; also being very clumsy and tends to trip over her own feet a lot when in human form. Despite all of this however. Mara loves helping people and will do everything she can to make them smile. She looks at the brighter aspects in life and tries not to dwell on negative thoughts. Mara has a habit of thinking out-loud and she tends to talk to herself in her native tongue. Mara also puts others needs before her own and in most cases she reacts without thinking of her own well-being: if someone is being hurt, Mara will immediately try and protect them with any means possible without even considering herself. She is very, very selfless. Mara can be very curious and is very easily captivated and awed by even the simplest of objects and things. She is very much like a child in a way.

Mara and her family lived in a cave at the base of the Bay Cliffs in Ireland. There were legends of their kind that were circling around Ireland but only the older generation believed in such tales, the younger ones scoffing and passing it off as just a silly fairly-tale. Mara was an only child and she was loved dearly by both of her parents. The young Mermaid enjoyed swimming through the ocean waters, exploring its depths though she was not allowed to stray too far from the cave without one of her parents. During the day Mara and her family had to keep a low profile but at night Mara liked to sneak away from the cave and sit on a rock, singing in the moonlight. 

Myth-seekers heard a rumor that people in a small village in Ireland kept hearing beautiful singing at night. They traveled to the village where they stuck around for a week. On the fourth day they spotted Mara sitting on her usual rock, singing. They almost captured her in a net but she managed to get away at the last second. When the letter arrived her parents agreed that the school would be much safer for her and after many hugs and goodbyes she was off, leaving home for the first time ever.


~ Can speak to any marine animal
~ Can control water
~ Siren Song(She doesn't have very good control over this one, the pull of the song is not very strong to those that hear it because Mara is still young)

+ She is very agile and fast in mermaid form
+ Her powers are stronger in the water
+ She heals faster when in the water
- She is very clumsy in human form
- She is very fragile and weak in human form
- Her powers are weak when not around water

She speaks Gaelic and while she can understand English, she has trouble speaking it and will often mix English and Gaelic words together when angry, frustrated, or scared.

She turns into her mermaid form whenever her legs get wet. Once dry she will revert back to her human form.</div></div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span></span>
Generally serious, cold and even a little cruel, there is a sadistic side to Kali without a doubt. However, despite her dark origins, she can be surprisingly compassionate and even sympathetic. She is also extremely curious and has a deep love for other worldly cultures and definitely prefers the surface world to Hell. Being a Hellhound, she is especially dutiful and loyal -- especially to whoever her Master may be at the time.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Biography</span></span>
""Created"" from lesser spirits in Hell, Kali found her life surrounded by a comforting furnace that never seemed to die out. Being quite young and not even of the Flame or Cerberus variation, she quickly gained reputation in the infamous Underworld due to her skill, loyalty and maturity. Despite still being a youngling, she was sent to the surface world as a spy of sorts. Finding it too harsh for her to handle, she somehow ended up in the academy less than a year later.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Dorm Number</span></span>
13

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Other:</span></span>
Being a Hellhound, she is invincible to fire and regular ""Human"" diseases (though this may not be the case if the disease comes from an unnatural force); she can also transform into her true form at will. Cars and wind chimes also scare the living daylight out of her.</div></div>"

His body is made of an almost opaque light orange substance. He has light, glowing blue eyes that are just one solid color. No irises, pupils etc. He has no hair, but you couldn't tell, he wears a pale green robe with a hood that he can pull up. He also can pull it up at the neck, obscuring everything but his eyes. The robe has a small symbol on the neck-fold, and another right under it, which indicate his family and his name, which are in Theraeta. 
Personality: He is shy at first, but is quite cheery around people he knows to be friendly. He has almost no knowledge of human culture, and refers to things in translated terms. He sometimes thinks names funny, and this sometimes results in hurting feelings. 
Bio: La'ta'kae was transported to the academy when a disease made it so that the Theraeta had to be relocated to different environments. Because of the sudden problem, he has no knowledge of the culture, just the language. Growing up, he learned to be as nice as he could be, although he gets worked up easily.

He watched and waited for the students to arrive. He had been told, already, that there were new students arriving, and so he was curious. He was the only one in touch with the owners of the school, and so it was his job to oversee things. He never knew how to contact the owners, of course, they always contacted him.</div>"

Having lived in the water for most of her life she was unfamiliar with the world of the land-walkers. Why did they like getting into those rolling and flying metal boxes to get places? Was walking not adequate enough? What had her parents told there were again? Cares? Plains? No...Cars! That was it, cars and planes! Why humans insisted on using those were beyond her. She was surprised she had even managed to get here but a nice elderly woman had taken pity on her and helped her through the flight procedures and even got her a..what was it again? T...Taxi? Yeah, that was it. She had gotten a taxi for her. So here she was. She gazed up at the castle before her. 

She had seen castles before, perched on cliffs and on hills. Of course that had been from the water and not up-close. She rolled her luggage behind her as she got closer, eyes wide in amazement. Suddenly she felt herself falling forward, having tripped over a crack in the ground. She went tumbling forward, landing harshly on her knees and shoulders. <font color=""#9966cc"">""Ow....""</font> She mumbled as she rose up and sat down on her bottom, examining herself. Her knees where scratched and bleeding and her shoulder was already bruising. <font color=""#9966cc"">""Why are two-legs so clumsy?""</font> She wondered to herself as she tried to brush off dirt and gravel around the wounds. This wouldn't be the first time she had fallen since transitioning into human form. She had been in her human form a few times before but she had never walked such distances on two-legs and so was rather uncoordinated.</div>"

She was wrapped up in a burgundy shawl that reached over her shoulders. The shawl was wrapped securely around her head as well. She looked up at the large doors with a flushed face from traveling so far on foot to get there. A soft sigh escaped her lips then she began to knock on the door. After a few swift taps, she shrugged her pack off and placed it on the ground only to hoist it up again. If it was a school, would she be considered too old to stay? She was 20 and she knew that typical humans attend school until they are 17 unless they pursue higher education. Was this considered to be a school for adults as well? Doubts began to swim through her head and she grew more restless as she stood there.</div>"

He swooped down to the entrance, transitioning to his human form as he reached the ground, and becoming human mid-step. He walked over to the female who had arrived and waved a little, a smile on his face.

""Welcome to the school."" He said, smiling. ""I'm guessing you're one of the new students?"" He asked, shrugging. ""Anyway, I'm Jack, if you have any questions, or need any advice, let me know. My job is to keep this place running, essentially. I'm also a student here, but I'm a little bit further ahead of most people."" His unnatural smile returned. ""So, what's your name?"" He asked.

He also noticed someone else at the door of the castle, he shouted and waved them over to join him and the other girl.</div>"

Out of the portal stepped a young human-looking guy, who seemed to be 17 or 18, and was carrying a large scythe, letting it rest on his shoulder. Of course, everyone knows that a Reaper's scythe is linked to them, so they can make it appear and disappear at will, which made it strange that he was carrying it out in the open.</div>"

I'm not sure if it's ok for me to stay though."" Lu's eyes were still wide and she was clearly nervous. Others were showing up but they looked a little younger than her. Her stomach muscles clinched at the thought of having to find another place to stay if things didn't work out here. She hadn't slept in a bed in days.</div>"

The castle that loomed ahead was beautiful, but in her humble opinion not as much as the Arctic Ocean, and she very much looked forward to meeting the other students.

She asked rather quickly with her mind beginning to race. ""If I'm too old to be a student....then perhaps I can work here for a little while?"" Her eyes saddened when she realized that she sounded desperate and neurotic at this point. Straightening herself up she looked at Jack while taking a deep breath. ""I'm 20 and I'm concerned I might be too old to stay here."" It was best to keep her statements simple and too the point. If she could work at the school, that would be nice, but she could always travel elsewhere. Lu wouldn't be able to stay any large span of time anyway. She would have to eat at some point and fasting for a long period would be a very bad idea.</div>"

""Lulu, you have nothing to worry about. I'm over 500 and I'm still here. There are no age limits at this school. They assume most people will leave when they outgrow the place, and generally that's by the equivalent of a 25 year old human, but there are no rules as to when you can leave. Partly because people like me, with very long lifespans, would be kinda out of the running very quickly. At 20 I was still a hatchling."" He shrugged.</div>"

That's like an ancient being. Lu had only met such an aged creature once before and that way when she was younger. Her bright eyes continued to stay very wide throughout their brief conversation, but she eventually regained some composure. ""Oh, what a relief!"" She breathed setting down her worn travel pack. Lu thanked him then turned around to look at the rest of the new arrivals. Some appeared to be typical human teens and others blew their cover with their arrival. So many people needed shelter and for them to be so young. Just thinking about her younger days made Lu shudder.

Maybe six hours ago? It's best not to risk it. ""One sec"" She shoved her hand into her pack and retrieved some old leather gloves with cracks and tears. Tugging the gloves over her hands she went on to shake her hand. ""I shouldn't make skin contact, I'm sorry for making this awkward."" Lu sighed.</div>"

He called to the group. ""Please be aware that the male dorms are in the eastern tower, and the female dorms are the western tower.

There is a mountain range with caves scattered throughout behind the school, and you may be able to see some of it now. Please be aware that there is a human city not too far from here, so discretion is advised.

She stood there quietly as he proceeded to explain where everything was. She just knew she was going to get lost; she wasn't the best when it came to directions. He then asked if they had questions and Mara's hand raised hesitantly into the air.

Once she was inside, she found herself staring around like a wide-eyed child. The entry room was massive and everything looks so manicured. She hasn't been in a place this nice before. It took her a while to reach it but she eventually found an empty room with a single bed. Once she placed her bag on the ground next to it, she collapsed on the bed and let out a huge sigh of satisfaction. ""Thiff isshhhh awwwfffuuummmm"" She moaned into the pillow before flipping on to her back and kicking off her shoes. Lu sighed and tugged lightly on the shawl wrapped around her head and neck. She wasn't comfortable with removing it yet. How long could she stay here? Being realistic, she knew she couldn't stay here long.

After lying in bed for a solid 35 minutes, she slowly sat up and looked around the room. There was another door that wasn't the entrance. Lu opened the door to find a small personal bathroom and she squeaked with glee. She hadn't slept in a real bed in days but it had been ages since she could have a hot shower. Lu excitedly ran to her front door and locked it then leapt to her bag to find some slightly less gross clothes to change into afterward. Once she got things ready, she stopped. Did they provide soap and towels? She stuck her head back into the small bathroom and chirped happily. Yes! They did provide soap and shampoo along with towels. 

After a 45 minute long shower, Lu opened her bathroom door allowing steam to pour into her room. A long sigh escaped her as she sat wrapped in a warm towel on her bed. She quickly changed into a different set of clothes and looked in the bathroom mirror to see her head still wrapped neatly in a towel. A short sigh came from her as she reluctantly untied the towel. Her wet red hair slapped onto her shoulder like slimy eels and out from the sides of her head twitched small wings that seemed to have taken the place of her ears. They were matted from the water and drooped almost as if they were sad. Seeing herself in the mirror only reminded her that she was different, but it couldn't be that bad right? She was now in a place where everyone was different and it was safe for her here. But, is it safe for the others if she stayed here? 

Lu sighed feeling rather depressed about her situation. She found a place where she could stay for a while and be safe, but she fed off the life force of others and that fact made it extremely difficult to spend a lot of time with people. All she had to do was touch them. Once her flesh makes contact with their she can see their life force like a silken thread that undulates through their person. She takes from that life thread until she doesn't thirst anymore. The effect it has on others varies on how long she keeps in contact with that person's life force. If it is for  a short time, the person will feel some degree of drowsiness, but the extreme is killing the person and the feeder going feral from having to contain so much life energy in their body at once. 

Jack did mention that there was a city nearby. A city full of clubs and bars were she could feed off of unknowing drunk people. That's how she survived before, but she would have to ask permission first. That would be awkward to have to explain her situation,but it couldn't be helped. Lulu finished getting dressed and rummaged through her bag to find a hat to cover her weird ears. She glanced in the mirror one more time to make sure she looked as human as she could, she left her dorm and began to search for Jack. She hoped that she wouldn't have to explain herself in front of everyone but she was sure she would have to at some point.</div>"

""Okay, if there are any questions on the way around, feel free to ask."" He called out as he turned away from the group and headed towards the door, pushing his hand out, using magic to open the large, oak double doors. ""Let's head inside, shall we?"" He asked. That was currently his most impressive trick, beyond his draconic heritage. He wasn't as skilled at magic as he could have been by now, but he spent most of his time buried in student issues.

Her stomach clinched at the thought of bothering him while his hands are so full so she quickly turned on her heel and walked around the building herself. She didn't feel the need for him to give her a tour. If she spent enough time there, then she would get to know the place better on her own. Her hand self-consciously drew up to her stocking cap that she put on after taking a shower. It was great for holding all her gross wet hair and it was stretchy enough to cover her winged ears. Lu's gaze fell down to the path directly in front of her feet so she wouldn't trip on anything. This habit of looking down while she walked was developed from a long life of avoiding people's gaze and not drawing attention. Now, she justifies the behavior by thinking, 'If you don't look, you might trip and whatever is on your head might fall off'. Then they would see. Even though she knew that she was in a place where it would be safe to show her ears, she didn't want to explain that she is from a predatory species that feeds on others.

First, nobody on the surface world could pronounce her correct name and she instead had to adopt another variation of it. Secondly, all of the fleshbags smelled generally the same and were equally as unattractive and finally, the honks and bright lights of the creations known as ""cars"" scared the living daylights out of her.

That's probably how the young Hellhound had ended up at the academy, but even if a little late. Truth being, she there a bit earlier than the rest and was positive that the dragon had heard her and just ignored her or maybe he hadn't even noticed her presence, either way, she was grateful. All of the unfamiliar scents and presences scared her off into bushes not too far off from the castle.

She watched most of them go inside through the bushes before stumbling out, brushing herself off. ""Whew, I don't think they saw me,"" she commented awkwardly as her ears immediately perked up, her attention to a newcomer with horns who had materialized from a portal.

She gazed down at the bowl in amazement. She hesitantly touched it, gasping when she felt the solid surface of bowl at her fingertips. It was real! She then picked up the bowl, looking at the sides and underneath it to try and figure out just where in the world it came from. Not able to figure it out, she set the bowl back down and picked up a piece of seaweed, nibbling on it. She tilted her head and focused again, jumping once more when a glass appeared filled with a clear liquid. She picked up the cup, looking at it strangely. What in the world was it and how does one use it?

She looked around at the others, hoping to be able to figure out what to do with it by watching one of them.</div>"

""Sweet! Seaweed, though? Oh, man. Where do you get your blubber?"" She sat next to her, practically bouncing up and down, closed her eyes, and imagined a plate piled with raw fish. When she opened her eyes, of course, there it was, waiting for her. ""Oh my god. Oh my <span class=""bb-i"">god.</span> All this food and I didn't even have to work for it. Oh. My. God. Coming here was the best decision I've ever made."" She stuffed a fish into her mouth and munched happily.

She will admit, it was surprising but is it normal for someone to get this excited about something? She watched as the selkie envisioned the food she wanted and Mara's widened in horror at the sight of raw fish piled on the plate. Her face paled and she felt sick, the piece of seaweed falling from her limp fingers. Her bright blue eyes were fixed on the plate, unable to look away. 

Yes, some mermaids ate fish and other sea creatures but Mara could never bare to eat the very beings she called her friends. Her parents had raised her to be kind and caring to the other inhabitants of the sea and so she survived off of the underwater plant life. She shuddered, tearing her eyes away. She stared down at her bowl, not really hungry anymore. She picked up the clear, hard object again and looked it over. Seriously, how did you even use this? What was it for? She knew there was water in it but how in the world did she get it <span class=""bb-i"">out</span>?</div>"

He smiled as he turned to face the new student. ""Take a seat anywhere and focus on what you want to eat."" He turned back to face the other students and noticed that Mara was staring at the glass. He chuckled and walked over to her. He sat down next to her, focused on a glass of water, as something to demonstrate. He smiled at her. ""Watch."" He told her, picking the glass up, holding it to his lips and taking a sip.</div>"

Mara glanced up at the winged-one, Jack she thought he had said his name was at one point, sit down next to her. She gave him a curious look as he made the clear thing appear before him. She blinked as he picked it up and brought it to his lips. She watched carefully as he tipped the thing down while keeping it pressed to his lips. She turned to her own glass and picked it up with both hands, bringing it to her lips as he did and tipping it down. She got that part right but she tipped it too far down and ended up choking as water filled her mouth. She coughed, shoulders shaking as the water went down the wrong pipe. Once she had managed to take a few ragged breaths she glared at the glass. She didn't like this thing very much. At least the water hadn't gotten on her legs, that would have been embarrassing. She turned to Jack, giving him a small smile. <font color=""#9966cc"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Moitas grazas</span>.""</font></div>"

Jack told her once he had made sure she was fine. He panicked for a second that she was going to choke and he would have to use his first aid skills. He decided to stay sat with her and figured he would get to know her a little bit, he needed to establish a rapport with these new students, and why not start with her? ""Was that Gaelic I heard just then?"" He asked with a small smile. He didn't really speak Gaelic, but he knew what most languages tended to sound like. He had been around for 5 centuries, he had seen a lot.</div>"

A strange wispy substance appeared in front of him, and his eyes widened. He inhaled the substance, this was a dish they had back home. This was fun. He avoided making eye contact with others while he was doing this.</div>"

Mara looked at the table and spotted a white object. She picked it up, finding it very flimsy. What did one do with this? As she started at it she recalled a memory of seeing someone on the flying metal box using this to remove substances from around their mouth. Would it work the same way as water? Curious and willing to find out she brought the flimsy thing to her mouth and dabbed at the water. It worked! She started at it in amazement, wondering how it took the water off her face. She could see spots on it now that were darker than the rest of the material. Was it supposed to do that? What would happen if more water got on it? Before she could figure this mystery out however a voice piping up next to her stalled her movements.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Was that Gaelic I heard just then?""</span>

As it has elements in both the human world and that of mythical creatures, it needs both personas to survive, without causing issues.  

You have received a letter, explaining the school, and who it is for, and an invitation to attend. To attend, you must be either a mythical creature or a hybrid creature/human.  

The academy is self-study. It's more of a social experiment than a school. As mythical creatures are not suited to regular schools, the academy provides a suitable social life as well as information and books they may use moreso than that they would find in mundane human schools.

Jack's Opening Speech: ""Please be aware that the male dorms are in the eastern tower, and the female dorms are the western tower. The dining hall, which is where all meals will be served, is the door opposite the entrance, and the gym is to the back of the building. The library is the large room nearest the girls dorm, and there is a building behind the castle which is reserved for events. The room below the boys dorm is a social area, similar to the park to the east of the school, and the forest to the west. There is a mountain range with caves scattered throughout behind the school, and you may be able to see some of it now. Please be aware that there is a human city not too far from here, so discretion is advised. If you plan to go to the city, you have to be first given permission, which you can obtain from me, but only after being here for a short while. That's all for now, if you have any questions let me know.""

RULES:

1) I am the GM. What I say goes. If you disagree, it can be discussed through PM.
2) I reserve the right to have characters removed from the RP should they cause issues with the dynamic.
3) I reserve the right to ask for changes to be made to CSs.
4) If there is an issue between people, solve in the OOC or, if it becomes more serious, in PMs with or without me.
5) I reserve the right to add mods/officers/whatever you want to call them to keep an eye on the IC and make sure none of these rules are broken.

CS:

Name:
Age:
Gender:
Species:
Appearance:
Personality:
Bio:
Dorm Number: (#1-100)(B/G) (Ex. 7B 7th room in the boys dorm) (Numbers 1-50 are single room dorms, 51-100 are double rooms).
Anything Else: (abilities, anything specific to them?)

DORM ROOMS:
Taken: 7B, 19B, 66B(2/2), 13G, 25G.

That's all I have to say for now, have fun!</div>"

Name: P-3.9.7, goes by Samuel/Sammy
Age: 3 years
Gender: Intended to be Male
Species: Mechanical Construct
Appearance: 1st form: About 1 foot high and 1.5 long. A metal cat, appearing to be shoddily patched together at the limbs. The metal is a grayish blue color, and he has white markings around his eyes. His eyes are a faded glowing blue, and he sees full color in them. He has pointed ears that curve slightly forwards. He has a tail that can move at will, due to being made of a seperate metal painted to match.
2nd form: About three feet high and resembling a child sign at a modern airport, he has ears that are more erect than before. Same color, eyes, and markings as before. Same tail, too.
Personality: Childish and energetic. He actually thinks he is a cat, even though he doesn't act like one.
Bio: 3.9.7 was the first working of his kind. (Prototype) He was made in a factory/lab far away from most. They were attempting to create a robot civilization, but gave up after...3.9.7. He was conscious while being worked on, and has about two functioning weeks. He was...disappointing. He functioned fine, but was not capable of any of the goals he was supposed to accomplish.
Dorm: 9B
Other things: He is equipped with various tools that come out of ports in his body on his arms. These include: a small welder, a flashlight, and a taser capable of putting out enough to stun for as long as applied. He refrains from using the latter.</div>"

Name: La'ta'kae (Goes by La'ta'kae)
Age: 13, appears 9
Gender: Male
Species: Theraeta
Appearance: La'ta is about 4'4 and of thin build, all Theraeta are thin. His arms and legs are able to change shape into tendrils, allowing him to grip almost anything. His body is made of an almost opaque light orange substance. He has light, glowing blue eyes that are just one solid color. No irises, pupils etc. He has no hair, but you couldn't tell, he wears a pale green robe with a hood that he can pull up. He also can pull it up at the neck, obscuring everything but his eyes. The robe has a small symbol on the neck-fold, and another right under it, which indicate his family and his name, which are in Theraeta.
Personality: He is shy at first, but is quite cheery around people he knows to be friendly. He has almost no knowledge of human culture, and refers to things in translated terms. He sometimes thinks names funny, and this sometimes results in hurting feelings.
Bio: La'ta'kae was transported to the academy when a disease made it so that the Theraeta had to be relocated to different environments. Because of the sudden problem, he has no knowledge of the culture, just the language. Growing up, he learned to be as nice as he could be, although he gets worked up easily. 
Dorm: 19B
Abilities:
Illuminate: able to cast light or emanate light from body.
Language: Theraeta are able to speak any language fluently, provided the words can be translated.
Telekinesis: All Theraeta have this. He can lift and control objects up to 550 pounds, except those protected by magic or living beings.
Emotion Read: Allows him to read emotions. NOT THOUGHTS. Willing to discard this ability if need be.</div>"

She and Cam were on route to go to the city.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span>Dante Gail
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19 
<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Sin/Gluttony 
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Able to take any item and make copious copies of it
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Dante has an addictive personality to say the least, and takes everything to excess. Never satisfied. Distracted and distant, often hard to engage in conversation. But once he is fixated on something he obsessively needs more of it. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Dante one of the Seven Deadly Sins incarnate traveled the land with his brothers and sisters on a mission for the Dark Lord. To do what else than to corrupt the sinners that plagued the earthly realm and send their damnable souls to the fiery pits of inferno and torture. How <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> dramatic. If Dante had seen one sinner he had seen them all, and over the years had lost his taste for corruption, manipulation, torture and damnation. He began to see that he was only truly in it for all of the fun and delicious vices the mortal realm had to offer. Dante was nothing, if not an all out kind of guy. And while he inhabited his current physical form he found a new insatiable taste for the mind altering chemicals the foolish humans put in their bodies to slowly die. He understood why, the numbness and euphoria that accompanied a small pill, or line, or a pipe, or a syringe granted him complete ecstasy. He became what was referred to as an ""addict"" but what else was new? Dante was a drinker, and a lover of all things sweet (or was it salty? Perhaps spicy?) and the more he could get the more he would take.

His siblings preferred Dante the least. Having lost his drive for corruption he became more of a hindrance than a help- what with the quotas they had to reach. But even in his earnest fervor to turn the souls that had lost their way they never <span class=""bb-i"">really</span>took him seriously. Or perhaps they took themselves too seriously? The whole lot of them were truly a bunch of self-indulgent sadists with a daddy complex bigger than the state of Texas anyway. Some of his siblings would kill themselves to please the Dark Lord, others would kill themselves pleasing themselves. Dante? He would enjoy the little things in life. Like just how <span class=""bb-i"">yummy</span> that little dancing cupcake will taste once the speed wears off and the pot kicks in. 

What? Oh, better focus on the pitiful fools that are looking to frolic around in stupid masques.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Roxie
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 25 
<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Damned Spirit/Lust 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>Naive, trusting, friendly to a fault and blatantly sexual. Quick to laugh, and eager to please those around her. Insecure and very fragile and sensitive. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Roxie sold her soul not much more than five years ago. Or was it longer? Time passed oddly when you were getting tortured or were floating around in an endlessly black abyss. But suddenly she was offered a chance. A chance to escape into purgatory-maybe prove she was repentant of her sins and ascend to be with the Creator (whom until death she never bothered to consider the existence of). At the very least she would have another day, one more day among the living. And even that would be worth the chance, right? If she failed she would go back to the misery she'd suffered in for what felt to be eons. All she needed to do was convince someone to take her place.

In life, Roxie was a sex worker. She started out pole dancing and fell in love with the feeling it gave her. Having grown up with a distant mother and a step father who took advantage of her sexually, Roxie constantly sought out the approval, desire, and adoration of others. She needed the validation that another person could give her by admitting they wanted her. But patrons were quick-witted and silver tongued- Roxie a damaged girl brimming with naivete. It wasn't long before innocent strip teasing turned into something more.

Her end came while she was escorting. In her mind it was nothing to be concerned with. Sex was something she enjoyed, and the emotional intimacy that others craved she found she could do without. It was the adoration she craved. Men fell in love with her and doted on her, and she could use it to her advantage. One night in particular she received a call to visit a client in the high-rollers suite at the MGM Casino in Vegas. An offer she simply couldn't refuse. He met her at a black jack table, cigarette in hand. He was gorgeous. A creature that the ancient Greeks wished they would have carved from marble. He was tall, dark, and handsome in the most scrumptiously dangerous way. And his endlessly deep eyes seemed to devour her alive. She found that she craved him, desired him to consume her. 

The next morning she awoke in his hotel room and all it's grandeur. Mind still fuzzy from last nights wine, she rolled over to see him there next to him. Perfection. He was watching her with the same hungry gaze he had all night. He propped himself up on one arm, and made her sweet promises of a life away from sex work. And for one asinine moment she dared to believe in him and hope again. ""You are all I desire,"" he swore, ""and I will have you for eternity."" How could she have ever known to take him so literally? 

""How?"" she dared to ask him, ""How will you take me out of all this? How could you want me so badly?""

""I will show you,"" he answered with a smirk that oozed with sexual tension. ""But if you want to stay with me, forever, you must swear it to me. With a kiss.""

And as their lips met, her life ended and her soul was forever his.

What a dick move right?</div>"

Instead, it may possess the bodies of the sleeping, the absent, and the dead - only resting on consecrated ground or being watched over by a divine guardian can protect the restive soul from the grasp of Sloth. Alternatively, Sloth is unable to possess the bodies of those resting within structures or sites that Sloth's essence is not currently occupying. Existing more as a force than as an entity, Sloth may possess as many individuals at a time as are available within any single structure (Sloth and the individuals it possesses may freely move between sites regardless of this limitation). Those possessed by Sloth, along with the essence of the sin itself, cannot trespass upon holy ground. The sleeping mind alone does not define the limit of Sloth's reach, and it may additionally possess the bodies of individuals who have entered a trance-like state or similar form of stupor, and even corpses devoid of life.

Those possessed by Sloth move with unknown drive and purpose, but all appear to have heightened sensory awareness beyond what the host body would normally be capable of. Possessed individuals can only be awakened by fire, intense heat, or electrical shocks (even in the case of possessed corpses, though these will momentarily recover as there is no consciousness to awaken - only destroying the body or else burying it in consecrated ground will prevent it from rising) - mere physical injury, loud noises, and bright light will fail to awaken the possessed. 

All possessed hosts will naturally awaken after a regular allotted time spent sleeping as is normal for them, depending upon their particular sleeping habits. Those possessed by Sloth experience uneventful, dreamless, timeless stasis. Assuming they are not injured while possessed, they will awaken fully rested and without any physical fatigue.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality and Description"" type=""button"">Personality and Description [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Sloth, lacking a personality per-se, is still a malevolent abyssal force which actively works to damn human souls and disturb the fabric of the world. In keeping with its nature, Sloth uses highly arcane, indirect, and subtle machinations to punish any who are foolish enough to follow the path of least resistance while also sowing weakness and frailty. Its foremost tool in the corruption of human purity is suicide, manipulating and distorting the circumstances and environments of its chosen victims in order to coerce them into giving up in despair, destroying the work, effort, and potential inherent in their mind, body, and soul. Sloth has been known to use poison, drugs, blackmail, and lies in order to weaken the wills of its victims. Although it has no intelligence of its own that would enable others to pursue such tactics, Sloth has an intrinsic affinity for sources of despair and doubt that it automatically exploits, occasionally without context, which even enables it to sometimes attack the resolve of Humans with fears and doubts they never knew they had.</div></div></div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/terminal"">@Terminal</a></footer></blockquote></div>"

(<span class=""bb-b"">Real Name:</span> Bradford Pennyworth)

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 23

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Sinner/Envy 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Distant, and even rude to others, Edgar has a cold demeanor that is hard to approach, showing arrogance wherever he goes. This is only an act, however, as Bradford is only mimicking his brother's mannerisms. His true self is that of a weak, hateful man, forever standing in the shadow of his superior brother.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Born as identical twins, Bradford and Edgar were the heirs to a great business empire, and were destined to become the tycoons of a new generation. While the two of them were impossible to differentiate by simply looking at them, there is a clue only known by the family: Bradford has a hidden birth mark on his back Edgar dors not have.
 
As the day their father died and it was time for the twins to take over, the brothers were not content to share the wealth. The conflict resolved, however, when Bradford was betrayed by his twin Edgar as he stole his inheritance, and cast him out of the Pennyworth estate. Edgar spread vile lies and gossip of Bradford, tarnishing his name irreparably. Bradford had to continue living with his small fortune he amassed before his exile, while Edgar grew in fame and glory.

Bradford was puzzled after having received the invitation to a mysterious masquerade: no friend or relative should have known where he was now living, he made certain of that. However, this gave him an idea. Bradford decided to take an additional mask with him: the identity of Edgar Pennyworth, his famous and oh-so popular twin brother. After all, extravagant balls require the attendance of extravagant people...</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/ariamis"">@Ariamis</a></footer></blockquote></div>"

Name: Lust

Age: 30

Role: Sin/Lust

Abilities: Can sense/know the level and type of desire in someone, gradually tap into their well of fantasies; transform into whatever physical body the victim wants and produce vivid illusions/reality of the kind; whisper words of temptation that sound irresistible; every touch is undeniably pleasurable. 

Personality: Lust has no gender, psychologically or physically, although, depending on what’s in season in the age it’s in, or the type of crowd it’s in, it can take on a stunning male or female form or any kind of creature necessary. It melds into whatever kind of personality the chosen victim most desires; Lust is the most well-liked and sociable even by and among its siblings. Lust is a person only in relation to someone else. There’s no sharply defined and constant personality and as such is more akin to Sloth in essence despite appearing more like its other siblings. It is cultured and knowledgeable only to the degree of necessity, to what’s needed to seduce and entrap its victim.

Bio: Born out of a frenzy of carnality as old as the first soul, Lust loves the dance of life and the sick, twisted, hellish - exciting, grand, heavenly - pleasures the world has to offer. It has no morals, no judgment, no boundaries. It delights in what the chosen mortal enjoys, it indulges the willing victim by taking them farther than the fringes of their wildest fantasies; it teases wickedly, locking the mortal in a vicious spiral of wanting and having, inching closer and closer to the climax when they scream and beg in tears and sweat for Lust to have their soul. But Lust is never satisfied by the soul(s) it takes, its gratification is always just a hair’s breadth away and never reached, so it’s ever onwards preying for the next life. It has one of, if not the, highest number of souls count. Lust enjoys the game, the more seemingly difficult it is, the more enticed it is to corrupting their soul.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/fillet"">@Fillet</a></footer></blockquote></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> To use the word 'nice' to describe Caritas is such an understatement, so much so that some would call it a sin, but Charitas would forgive you. The androgynous angel had fully adopted a demeanor so simple and kind that even Christ himself viewed the charity the angel has displayed as admirable. Caritas has a very childlike demeanor and optimism in regards to interaction with the world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Caritas, unlike Corbel, is not an angel descended from the Divine Being, but instead is an innocent soul ascended to the rank after experiencing a mortal death.

Caritas was born with earthly name of Tyler Junius in Louisiana several decades ago. His human life was one filled with hardship, his family was poor, his mother was a drug addict, and his father an abusive narcissist-- he was not baptized, as his father was such a pagan that he worshiped himself. A young Tyler was not introduced to Christ until his 8th year on earth, when a Christian relative gifted him with a children's bible. It was through this single act of kindness and charity that, on Tyler's 9th year on earth, when he perished in a house set ablaze by his father's arrogance, that they young boy's soul was saved.

The decades since have seen Tyler cast aside his human name and accept Caritas, a name fitting the angelic qualities of one who was saved through charity and kindness, and now serves as a guardian angel to those who might be known to God through their own selfless acts. Urania, an angel representing the charity of Holy Spirit, sent Caritas to the party, to find and save any souls who might open their hearts to God through the altruism in their hearts.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> A lack of personality best describes James' personality. Be it society, his own depression, or the forces of the embodiment of Sloth acting on his soul, something has numbed him to a point where he doesn't really feel emotions, he just occasionally leaves the state of apathy that his mind exists in 90% of the time. He is a sad, depressed individual-- someone who has been on the edge for too long-- and he acts in stereotypical accordance to this.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> What life? The existence James has begun to lead is hardly one worth recounting. After college he began to work-- and that is where James life now remains. Trapped in a purgatory created by his own lack of ambition, he puts little into earning barely enough money to keep himself alive and even less into his own enjoyment when he isn't working. Truth be told, James doesn't know where he got the energy to come to the party-- a certain voice in the back of his head perhaps?</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Appeared Age:</span> 40

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Damned Spirit/Pride
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Marcus is a bastard. He was the type of person, in life, who became consumed by greed and anger but became an embodiment of megalomania to those around them. Decades spent burning in the fires of hell have only worsened his ego. He has no faults-- he is only in hell because God himself cannot compare to the glory that is Marcus, the fires that scorched his skin black have strengthened his resolve and belief in himself-- and that he embodies his sin so well has only bloated his ego further. He is the best soul to ever be, and others should strive to be like him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Marcus Junius, the image of perfection and goodness, has been burning in the hottest fires of hell, for, 50 years? It doesn't matter much. The man is too proud to admit his wrongdoing in life. Even the depths of the 9th level do nothing to harm his stubborn resolve. In that way, he is strong. The pain he feels is nothing to admitting that he has sinned, that he was.

Marcus Junius was raised on Louisianan Voodoo, and continues to believe and practice his pagan magic. Voodoo, and the deal he made, is what put him in the fire. 

Quite simply, in a test of vanity, Marcus Junius summoned a pagan spirit and asked to be made more powerful than God himself. It didn't turn out so well.

His skin is black from the fires that have only strengthened his belief that he is a god, and the tattoos that adorn his body are to remind him of the false religion he continues to follow.</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/darcs"">@Darcs</a></footer></blockquote>

Unlike Caritas, he does not appear to be associated with the Heavenly Virtues except incidentally. He is an Angel of the First Sphere, operating directly under one of the Archangels themselves. He is an Old Testament Angel, and as such does not conform to modern interpretations of Angelic Beings. His true form is not a winged humanoid, but an eldritch complex that most would mistake as a Horrorterror from the Furthest Ring. He is also decidedly not nice. Or gentle. Or a pacifist. The best words to assign his person would be, 'Merciless, Exigent, Harrowing.'

He appears to have been sent to the Manor separately to Caritas in a case of the right hand not knowing what the left is doing. His objectives are markedly different, and the means he is willing to employ more varied...and extreme.</div></div></div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/terminal"">@Terminal</a></footer></blockquote></div>"

His eyes were dilated and blood shot and his mind was flooded with all of the yummy chemicals he so desperately sought out. A stash box sat next to him as he lounged in a bean bag chair, or was it truly a cloud on which he floated?, and in it were needles and pipes and pills and herbs and powder. Everything, but not enough. His brothers and sisters (whichever physical form they chose to inhabit anyway, genders meant little to them) regarded him distastefully. 

<span class=""bb-i"">They tell the Dark Lord that I don't deserve this anymore, that I take no pleasure in corrupting souls,</span> he thought to himself. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Don't listen to them! They don't understand you like we do!</span> A water pipe which was propped against the wall sang to him. He chuckled at that, before he received word that he needed to get ready, the Guests of Honor would arrive soon. 

Dante found himself standing, and couldn't remember how he'd gotten to his feet. He moved from the dark room into the brightly lit hallway, the light piercing his eyes like a hot knife. He grabbed his head, but proceeded to make his way from the den to his private room and the journey seemed to be longer than the trek down a hall and up a short flight of stairs. Dante felt as though his footsteps carried him through the fabrics of time and space itself. Which incidentally, was his least favorite trip. Finally, he was in his shower- the cold water helping to clear his mind. He let the water pool in his hands as he splashed his face, savoring the sensation the chill produced through his body. He chose a typical black tuxedo and drab black mask. He cared little for fashion, or style. That was up to his siblings. 

He made his way through the manor, and the sounds of delighted chatter and upbeat music was already filling up the grandiose entrance and main floor. A butler fluttered past him with a tray filled with champagne, which Dante promptly lifted the entire tray and made his way to the table filled with sweets. He set the plate down in front of him, and reached into his pocket for a few hits of ex that were loosely floating around. He ate them and promptly chased them with an entire flute of champagne. And then another. No time at all had passed before the drugs kicked in and colors and sounds were amplified. He felt a wave roll over him of pure euphoria, and a smile involuntarily came to his lips. 

<span class=""bb-i"">It is true I take no pleasure in corrupting souls. These souls were already miserable, damnable and cursed. It is my siblings that did not know pleasure, they did not know euphoria. It was not hard work to share a needle or a line with some fool or another and get him to sign his soul over for some more,</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Yes! Yes!</span> some delectable cupcake before him agreed fervently. The cupcake slowly peeled off it's wrapper and danced around. A few other deserts began joining it in its dance. <span class=""bb-b"">It is you who appreciates pleasure. Why work hard to corrupt these worthless mortals when you can enjoy yourself and they will take care of the rest?</span> They all sang. A stupid grin spread on his face as he watched the deserts dance and twirl before him. Beckoning him to enjoy them too. Right? Why work hard? Oh. Now he was beginning to sound like Sloth.

Some Damned Spirit was watching him with a mixture of fear and confusion. He realized he'd been talking aloud to the sweets. No one could see his hallucinations. He cut his eyes at the Spirit and gave a low snarl. ""Enjoying the view, you worthless rat?"" He asked venomously. He finished the flute of champagne and piled the pastries on the tray he had just emptied. ""Keep looking and you'll end back up in the pits of Hell quicker than you'd hoped. Now, go do you're fucking job and make us look good will you?"" He almost chucked the wrapper-less muffin at the soul, but what a waste of perfectly fine sugar that would have been. Instead he gave the Spirit one last cutting look before wandering off with his tray of goodies, in search of a dark corner in which to indulge and seek out whichever foolish mortal he wast tasked with damning to an eternity in fire and brimstone and blah blah blah... 
The greater tragedy is that they will be deprived of all their goodies. 

<span class=""bb-i"">These wasteful, stupid, stupid humans. They don't appreciate excess like I do. They will starve themselves for beauty and sacrifice all of these delicious morsels. The only thing they craved in excess was money, and that was folly and Greed's territory.</span> But even so, Dante knew better. Greed was just a specific category of Gluttony. Gluttony was where the other Sins were derived from, in Dante's opinion. <span class=""bb-i"">And still they dare to mock me!</span> he glowered and began shoveling the sweets into his mouth indiscriminately. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fret not! They will see the truth soon enough! When you take your Sin unto the Dark Lord before all of them, and when he acknowledges your superiority they will have no choice but to concede their inferiority to you!</span> Some desert reassured him before being consumed for the greater good. He smiled again. This was true, his hallucinations never lied to him. They always showed him the way, he would corrupt more souls than the others. He would- because that is what Gluttony was good for wasn't it?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Roxie was clad in a tight corset that showed off her tiny waist, and black tight leather pants tucked into thigh-high black stiletto boots. Her outfit hugged her every curve like a second skin and left very little to the imagination. She wore a cat mask that glittered in the light and seemed made for her face alone. She felt wrapped in the aura of sexuality she so often donned in life, and she lavished in it. To be among the living again! Much has changed since her damnation, and still not much at all was different! She spent time with Spirits old and older still and none had been offered this chance like her and the others. Because they were better. <span class=""bb-i"">She</span> was better. Roxie <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> seduction. 

She had often been told that her naked form was the purest form of art. Her pouty mouth had begged to be kissed, and her smoldering bedroom eyes beckoned those who had looked upon her to come and know of the pleasure she could give them. Yes, Roxie knew this to be true- and much more. In life she had made a killing putting her looks to use. Her hair was always in a state of neat disarray that gave her a messy post sex look (which was most often true) and this only added to her look. As she walked across the marble floors in the manor her hips swayed as if possessed by the song of some slow dusky saxophone, and she never spared a look to those who gazed upon her hungrily. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Let them try to devour me. Let them taste me, and meet the ruin I have met</span> she challenged them. But they were already dead like her. And so she must anxiously await for her prey to arrive. It should be no challenge. She mastered the art of seduction. Lust itself had sought her out. If it was anything she knew how to do, and well, it was to get someone into bed with her. If with nothing else than but a look. 

She wandered the main floor, anxiously waiting the arrival of the honored guests- and secretly hoping she could look upon the face of Lust again as she had before she died. He was the only man she ever wanted. And she only wanted to look again. If he would only <span class=""bb-i"">have</span> her, she wouldn't want to go back. If he could only take her as mistress instead of forsake her to endless torture. She could be his <span class=""bb-i"">partner</span>, she could help him.

But even when she beseeched him to have her, he gave her a cold smile and answered simply: ""You're not that special, love.""

Well, she would show him yet. And if that still would not prove her worth at least she would be free. Tonight was the last night she would spend knowing that she had a place in hell.

Tonight she would make love and know freedom again.</div>"

As the limousine door was opened by the chauffeur, somebody proclaiming themselves to be Edgar Pennyworth stepped out, wearing a tuxedo black as the spots tainting his heart. Edgar promptly thanked the driver and stepped towards the entrance of the mansion. <span class=""bb-i"">Impressive; reminds me of my sweet home, the Pennyworth Estate,</span> a thought came to him. <span class=""bb-i"">Looks like the invite wasn't a prank, after all.</span>

Edgar stepped inside, and was greeted by a mass of lights and music he couldn't compare to the parties he used to partake in. There was a table filled to the brim with exotic delicacies, some of them familiar to Edgar, but most of them too unfamiliar to even recognize. The people attending the party were all wearing masks of some kind, some more fitting to the event than others. Edgar himself chose a mask that would certainly stick out like a sore thumb and cause people to become shocked, appalled, or at the very least, humored at him. At least, that is what he wanted as he stepped closer to the table, anticipated to hear the first reactions upon people witnessing him and the grinning visage of his mask.

<span class=""bb-i"">Time for my dear brother to show what kind of person he is.</span>

What must have been another party-guest, wearing a neat Tuxedo and a golden lion mask, was standing by the upper-right banister, standing perfectly still and looking down at the crowd. Out of the blue, his head jerked down, smashing directly into the top of the banister with an audible <span class=""bb-i"">cracking</span> noise that was heard throughout the entire foyer. He then tilted to the side and began falling down the stairs, his arms twisting and bending unnaturally as his shoulders smashed into the staircase, his legs upending over his head as he tumbled down back-first. He careened to the side, slamming into the side-railing and then again down the center. Just when it seemed he was going to fall to the floor at the base of the staircase, his legs seemed stiffen and eerily pull upright just as the man rebounded off the lowermost step, and then he neatly stepped out of his previously uncontrolled fall directly onto the foyer floor as if nothing had happened.

Most of the onlookers either began to clap or laugh in excitement - whether or not he was an entertainer or just incredibly lucky, it had been something of a curious sight for all of them. The man in the lion mask stood stock-still, and then began to sway from side to side, his body tilting and bending in any and every direction while his legs remained utterly rigid, like a drunken man who had his feet glued to the ground.

The party guests, by then, had begun to ignore him and return to their conversations. Not so much as one of them considered checking the man or calling for medical assistance. He continued to shiver and quake in place, completely unaware of his surroundings.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-s"">888888888888</span></div>
Corbel did not deign to arrive through the front door, and nor did he bother to wear a mask. The limited rind of pulp he wore over a frame of bone was already disguise enough, and he had no intention of needlessly cavorting with those within the manor itself.

Having climbed over the stone wall that surrounded the estate, he had walked briskly through the gardens - making little effort to hide his presence - and made his way inside through the garden patio connecting to the rear ballroom. The clothes he wore, at least, were not entirely out of place - red silk and velvet, in an anachronistically displaced style. Most of the guests didn't give him a second look. He began scanning the room, watching for the recipient of his first message.</div>"

Jazz music from the main floor trailed her steps, now intermingled with the telltale sounds of moaning that grew louder in a crescendo. The handmaiden, a stocky older woman, carried a plush cushion, upon which lay an intricately designed gold mask with fanciful swirls of silver and studded diamonds, and walked past an open set of double doors into an extravagant bedroom. The walls and ceiling were crafted from a rich mahogany accented by warm amber lamps; thick silk curtains, which pooled to the carpeted floor, drew over the windows with an outside view of the gardens. 

To the left of the entrance, in the sitting room, heavy couches and arm chairs waited on the expansive persian rug by the crackling fireplace. There was a smoky, roasted meat flavour in the air. Shadows flickered across the life-like portraits of men and women. Some were recognisable, like the figures of Casanova and Pope Alexander VI, some were of commoner means or looked haggard; the people of varied ages spanned across different epochs as distinguished by their dress styles, from tribal-wear through to pinstripe suits, and all had been captured with a wild glint in their eyes by the same hand. 

The handmaiden turned right - a man screamed at the top of his lungs, whether in excruciation or hedonism it was impossible to tell; then only the music lingered - towards a wafting perfume, strong and tantalising, reminiscent of night floral blooms - with the bitterness of charred flesh. A lesser servant would have been unsettled in their task, but the handmaiden, who had been serving Lust since the fourteenth century, said simply, “Madam,” and waited for her mistress with her sight cast on the floor.

There stood, as the centrepiece of the room, a magnificent bed crowned in a gold headboard inlaid with an orgy of snakes writhed in embrace: a lone naked beautiful woman, who was the source of the scent, was lying on a spread of smouldering twigs; uninjured. Her luxurious dark hair curled in waves around a heart-shaped face, her equally dark, kohl-lined eyes showed the frustration she felt, with sensuous lips now pursed in a line; her body, of strength and soft skin, was unusually tense post-coital. Lust pondered if she should summon another damned spirit to help scratch the itch just a little more and, in thought, started unwittingly caressing herself. It had been two days since she had last corrupted a soul, two days since she had tasted <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> pleasure. She had to content herself with the weak incorporeal imitation the eager damned spirits gave (who were sent into worse tortures in Hell upon their return), under orders from the Dark Lord as was tradition.

The handmaiden made not a sound but her presence reminded Lust that the masquerade ball was beginning.

“Roxie is in the manor, Madam,” she said, as if reading her mistress’ mind; her posture stayed stoic.

“Is she now?” Her interest piqued, Lust got out of the bed that instantly reset into a pristine condition and went to the nearby dressing table. She remembered the girl, she remembered all of her corrupted souls: a young wild naive who had been too easily manipulated like so many others before her. Roxie was a <span class=""bb-i"">dirty</span> girl, a kind of Lolita fantasy innumerable men enjoyed, and therein laid her strength suitable for the game - and a clue as to what kind of a person her mysterious guest of honour was. “Is she the only one?”

“So far, yes, she is the only one of your Sin, Madam.”

Lust looked into the mirror. The form was an exquisite design from the masochistic pyromaniac she had just fucked. She supposed she could appear like the man of Roxie’s dreams, the one she had given her soul away to years ago, but Lust would experience little from yet another damned spirit. So she was clothed in fiery red without any directive inspiration. The slender straps over her graceful shoulders held up a deep neckline and a revealing back. The silken dress ran long, with a high slit down from her hip, that swept by her matching stiletto heels. Lust wore the mask the handmaiden had brought over.

“Celeste,” she lifted up the chin of the handmaiden and gazed into her eyes, “How do I look?” What reflected to Lust in her dark brown eyes was Celeste, dressed in the habit of her mortal church, engaged in all manners of depravities with her fellow sisters and parishioners at the altar.

“Beautiful,” Celeste whispered, as if in a trance: who she saw was the bearded young man that endlessly cried and pleaded for her to stop.</div>"

How delightful it was to be wrapped in mortal flesh and bones and have one's mind affected into madness. He blinked, now the walls began to inhale and exhale with him. Another blink and he was unthinkably large for a tiny tiny room. He held his hands out before him, and studied his own digits as they detached themselves and ran away from him to go dancing with the guests. Another blink would see them back again. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Focus you blubbering imbecile or I shall snatch your worthless spirit from your piteous shell and replace you with someone more capable</span> a heavy voice growled at him. A hallucination, perhaps? Best not to assume as such, the Dark Lord or not he did have a matter to attend to.

He stood, leaning heavily against the wall as the world spun and flipped and righted itself again. Ah, there we go, back to normal. Dante blinked again and tried to remember that normal was not indeed in negative. <span class=""bb-i"">There are colors, bright and lovely. Focus on those</span> he instructed himself, or more so the chemicals that played tricks in his mind. How delightful it was to be at the mercy of a force which was out of your control. Is this what his victims felt when they forfeited their souls for an ounce of good Colombian white? 

Something odd caught his attention as some fool tumbled down the stairs much like a rag doll violently dismissed from a spoiled child's presence. He closed his eyes tight, and opened them again to the man swaying like an idiot. <span class=""bb-i"">Too much champagne, these foul and miserable souls get a taste of life and just like himself they binge drink.</span> He thought as he began to walk towards the man. He kept his hand along the wall, a sort of tether to the real world lest he should go flying off to Nirvana. He'd met Cobain at the end of a needle with supreme black tar. <span class=""bb-i"">Truly a talent. Truly a tormented, foolish, wasteful wasteful talent. He couldn't even be bothered to clear the syringe, no, make me use your bloody dirty needle you wasteful bastard.</span>

Dante caught his mind wandering again, and found he had been standing before the swaying man for who knows how long with vacant eyes. ""I have a feeling you've indulged in a little bubbly tonight? Or are you dreadfully dull and simply have terrible coordination?"" he asked with a heavy sense of detachment. He moved so he stood side by side with the man so that he might survey the Damned drinking and fucking themselves merry while they had a chance. Some stalked around, heads held long and chins thrust forward. Others found corners in which to fornicate- disgusting. Some boasted about the yachts they had, or the amount of slaves they had on their plantation. Many were crowded around the buffet tables that never seemed to go empty of sweets, or exotic dishes. A fair few seemed to just lounge about on the many sofa's and pillowed hideaways. Somewhere, if one listened closely, they could hear heated debates or witness all-out brawls, and many and more cut appraising glances at their fellow degenerates enviously. Or this was all some very grandiose trip he was on. 

He breathed it all on, trying to relax his fuzzy mind, and found a smile spring to his face. He then cast a sideways look at the odd, clumsy individual, and arched his brow. ""Or maybe, the effort of walking was all too much for you?"" he wagered another guess. This very much seemed to be the work of his lazy incompetent sibling. Is this how he planned to participate in the evening's festivities? <span class=""bb-i"">I'll wager I corrupt my prize well before you do,</span> he thought to himself. <span class=""bb-i"">You'll be here half a bloody century before you can be bothered to get around to it.</span> Dante chuckled and plucked another tray of hor d'oeuvres from the finger tips of some passerby butler. And popping bite sized quiche into his mouth, one after the other, faster than anyone could seem to chew and swallow the previous one. He'd had better, and much preferred the shrimp cocktail, but they would't be bringing that out until later so that it could stay fresh. He sighed at the thought, as he chewed a mouthful of quiche, that dribbled from his lips and down his chin. Pausing briefly to wipe away at it with the cuff of his tailored tux, and return to his feast anew when another passing butler had delightful bite sized creme brulee.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Roxie grew restless before noticing a few new faces beginning to appear in the crowd. One such was a man wearing a frightening manic mask that evoked no craving or desire within her. She felt all at once disappointment and frustration- two emotions that served only to ruin pretty faces with hideous wrinkles, and were at such odds than the emotions of pleasure, excitement, and satisfaction that she so desperately sought out. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Surely this one cannot be mind,</span> she thought to herself. Another scan of the room revealed to her another disgruntled looking guest wearing a garb of red silk and velvet. The colors of passion, romance, and lust were ill-matched with the apparent temperament of the one robed in them. Still, she found the prospect of seducing men that might please her for a moment or two far outweighed her disappointment in their presentations. For all she knew they could be very well endowed and had a fetish for bondage and domination. There was only one way to find out. 

Put off by the mask-wearing guess, she decided to set her sights on the crimson visitor who seemed so decidedly unhappy to be there. She still, would spare a glance to the mask-wearer putting all of her effort into her patented ""come fuck me"" face. She sauntered past him and right up to her target. She stopped, putting her weight on her right heel (which accentuated her curves in a very calculated manner) and reached up to coil a lock of blonde hair around her slender fingers. ""Now, here's someone who doesn't seem pleased with his party guests,"" she cooed. She began to walk around him, taking the liberty to trail a well manicured hand first along the length of his arm, then across his broad back. She stopped slightly behind him, so that when she spoke again her voice would be in his ear. ""You seem like someone who appreciates the finer things, they all seem like they know nothing of the sort,"" she said in a softer voice than when she had initially addressed him. Then she leaned forward a little closer, ""but I'm sure you have exquisite tastes,"" she whispered. 

She fell back on her heels again, daring him in her mind to turn and look upon her.

But she found that as she gazed upon him a peculiar little pain- like a migraine- began to form in her temples, and was almost instantly cured when she looked away from him to scour the party-goers for any other potential target.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">You check outside your window as you have heard a car idling outside of your house. You see a sleek limousine at the curb. A knock comes at the door. You open it and waiting for you is a dashing butler dressed gallantly. He bows as you stand there, and before you have a chance to ask who he is, or what it is that he wants, he places before you a soft, ornate red velvet pillow. And placed upon it is a decorative embellished envelope addressed to you, but not indicating who is the sender. You take it, hesitantly, after giving the man a quizzical look. You open it, and find an invitation to a masquerade inside. After a quick cursory scan of it, you look back up at the messenger- a thousand questions buzzing in your head. He gives you a dazzling smile, and bows again. ""Your transportation shall be around at 9, to allow you time to get ready,"" he informs you and clicks his heels together. Quickly he turns on his heels and is retreating before you can ask whom the sender was, or why you. You could try to call out your questions behind him if you'd like, but your questions would only be answered if you attended it would seem. 

Do you accept the invitation?</span>
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/1VK6FxO.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">Well <span class=""bb-b"">of course</span> you did! You had nothing planned this evening and it happened to be a Saturday night. Besides, you had quite a few questions buzzing around your empty little head, and you are, after all, a <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> curious person. 

Your limousine pulls up to this splendid luxe mansion, and now your curiosity has piqued. You never knew anyone who was this wealthy, at least you didn't think you did. But what was a little mystery in the face of a masquerade? That was in fact the point of the party wasn't it? Your door is opened by the chauffeur that picked you up promptly at 9 just as promised and you step out into the crisp autumn night in your finery and with whatever grand masque you could find with such little notice (or perhaps you had one just for such an occasion?) and make your way through the gilded iron gate and up the stone steps to massive mahogany double doors. Before you could so much as trouble to make use of an ostentatious knocker or search for a doorbell the doors swing open before you, and a cacophony of music, laughter, and chatter wash over you. You have arrived to what looks to be the party of a lifetime.</span>
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/LBqOoE8.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">A band plays somewhere on the first floor, and the jazz music they play fills the first floor with a manic energy that fuels the loud chatter and frantic dancing. Everywhere you look men dressed in the same garb as the butler that delivered your invitation were carrying silver dishes filled with flutes of bubbly champagne or hor d'oeuvres. People around you are dressed in beautiful gowns and sharp tuxedos and their identities are kept tentatively hidden (or not) behind beautifully crafted masques. The ball is in full swing and it has only just begun! Still, you find that you do not know anyone in attendance, which only doubles your confusion. Whose home was this? Who was it that invited you and why? You find your first clue in the foyer, a family portrait that featured its seven seemingly affluent members. Some of them smiled, some kept their gaze level and serious. Perhaps these were the people who invited you? Yet you still did not know who they were. Perhaps they were influential members of high society? Or possibly a family steeped in old wealth? 

Never the less you prepared yourself to take full advantage of the generous, although puzzling invitation. And who knows? Perhaps you would learn the answers to your questions along the way.</span>

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

<span class=""bb-b"">Welcome to A Sinful Masquerade!</span>

Here's a little peak behind the scenes of what your characters are in for:

The setting of the masquerade is modern day New Hampshire.
The good hosts that invited you to the party happen to be the Seven Deadly Sins- evil personified. 
Wrath, Greed, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Envy and Gluttony. 
A family of demons that have prowled the Earth and have chosen every year to seek out the sinners and return to Hades with their souls. Invitations were sent out to those which showed an affinity for one of the sins which means seven people were invited, and the rest of the guests in attendance are either souls already damned trying to tempt the invitees into somehow signing their souls over to the Dark Lord himself (thus taking the fallen souls place in the inferno), or angels trying to save them and get them to repent for their affronts against the Creator. The sadistic event begins at 10pm, and at midnight those who do not leave will find that any exits or windows that they should try and attempt to leave cannot be opened, or broken. And the windows that can be used are located very high up in the mansions tower, and the use of these for escape would almost surely result in death. The invitees will all be instructed to stay on the main floor and indulge themselves endlessly, but for those curious, or led by a sneaky spirit or sin, the mansion holds all sorts of wicked rooms. Ranging from torture chambers, rooms with seemingly no entrance or exit, a sinful person's wet dream, or worst nightmare. There are all sorts of ways to break one's spirit and get them to join the dark side, so tread carefully and explore at your own risk!

<span class=""bb-b"">CHARACTER INFORMATION</span>

As previously mentioned I have essentially 14 characters that can be ""claimed"" essentially, and then you have the option of playing a Damned Spirit or an Angel. Anyone person can control as many characters as they feel as they can handle, but I would ask that in the beginning stages of this roleplay that you will try and select either one Sin or one Sinner (this allows everyone to have a shot at one of these fairly) and then as many DS's or Angel's as you wish (go nuts! The more the merrier! No seriously...). Of course, as the roleplay progresses if there are remaining Sins or Sinners I will of course try and fill these spots as best I can or create sort of NPC community dictated type characters until someone is willing to take them on. 

Something to keep in mind! The Sins will have some abilities to aid them in their mission of corrupting the Sinners into eternal damnation, but these abilities <span class=""bb-i"">must</span> relate to what they personify. Example: Lust could potentially have the ability to transform themselves into whatever it is that whoever looks upon them desires most. Wrath has extraordinary, inhuman strength, etc. etc. Use your creativity here. But don't get too carried away either! Now, as for the DS and the Angels sorry! But your only powers here are your powers of persuasion! This is the Sins party, therefore it is the Sins playground.

This is what you will be filling out~

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

<span class=""bb-b"">RULES:</span>
Of course all the standard stuff, you're not babies you get the gist!
Please try to be fairly active! It's sort of a bigger group of people (or at least I hope it will be!) so the more you post the more we can really get the plot moving.
Remember this is a roleplay centered around sin and sadism so I expect it to get explicit (encourage it!) of course within the site's guidelines. Cursing is fine but let's try and keep the really offensive stuff (you know like slurs and explicitly sexual content) out of this roleplay. It's a horror roleplay not a smut magazine alright?
Also! If there is any specific Sin or Sinner that you would like to reserve as you work on the profile for them then that is fantastic! Please consider sending a private message to me, that way I can make it public knowledge that you are holding that character. However! I think it only fair to hold the character for up to SEVEN BUSINESS DAYS (Monday through Friday people). I think that this is more than enough time to crank out at least a rough draft of your profile while accounting for your busy schedules. Otherwise the character will be back up for grabs. 
Also, keep in mind that there are deaths in this roleplay, and only of the Sinners. So! If you are the Sinners respective Sin, or a DS please, please, please make sure that you are coordinating with the Sinner if/when there character will die. Same goes for Angels (hey, some people don't want to be saved).
Any other questions ask me!</div>"

Instead, it may possess the bodies of the sleeping, the absent, and the dead - only resting on consecrated ground or being watched over by a divine guardian can protect the restive soul from the grasp of Sloth. Alternatively, Sloth is unable to possess the bodies of those resting within structures or sites that Sloth's essence is not currently occupying. Existing more as a force than as an entity, Sloth may possess as many individuals at a time as are available within any single structure (Sloth and the individuals it possesses may freely move between sites regardless of this limitation). Those possessed by Sloth, along with the essence of the sin itself, cannot trespass upon holy ground. The sleeping mind alone does not define the limit of Sloth's reach, and it may additionally possess the bodies of individuals who have entered a trance-like state or similar form of stupor, and even corpses devoid of life.

Those possessed by Sloth move with unknown drive and purpose, but all appear to have heightened sensory awareness beyond what the host body would normally be capable of. Possessed individuals can only be awakened by fire, intense heat, or electrical shocks (even in the case of possessed corpses, though these will momentarily recover as there is no consciousness to awaken - only destroying the body or else burying it in consecrated ground will prevent it from rising) - mere physical injury, loud noises, and bright light will fail to awaken the possessed. 

All possessed hosts will naturally awaken after a regular allotted time spent sleeping as is normal for them, depending upon their particular sleeping habits. Those possessed by Sloth experience uneventful, dreamless, timeless stasis. Assuming they are not injured while possessed, they will awaken fully rested and without any physical fatigue.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Personality and Description"" type=""button"">Personality and Description [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Sloth, lacking a personality per-se, is still a malevolent abyssal force which actively works to damn human souls and disturb the fabric of the world. In keeping with its nature, Sloth uses highly arcane, indirect, and subtle machinations to punish any who are foolish enough to follow the path of least resistance while also sowing weakness and frailty. Its foremost tool in the corruption of human purity is suicide, manipulating and distorting the circumstances and environments of its chosen victims in order to coerce them into giving up in despair, destroying the work, effort, and potential inherent in their mind, body, and soul. Sloth has been known to use poison, drugs, blackmail, and lies in order to weaken the wills of its victims. Although it has no intelligence of its own that would enable others to pursue such tactics, Sloth has an intrinsic affinity for sources of despair and doubt that it automatically exploits, occasionally without context, which even enables it to sometimes attack the resolve of Humans with fears and doubts they never knew they had.</div></div></div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 23

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Sinner/Envy 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Distant, and even rude to others, Edgar has a cold demeanor that is hard to approach, showing arrogance wherever he goes. This is only an act, however, as Bradford is only mimicking his brother's mannerisms. His true self is that of a weak, hateful man, forever standing in the shadow of his superior brother.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Born as identical twins, Bradford and Edgar were the heirs to a great business empire, and were destined to become the tycoons of a new generation. While the two of them were impossible to differentiate by simply looking at them, there is a clue only known by the family: Bradford has a hidden birth mark on his back Edgar dors not have.
 
As the day their father died and it was time for the twins to take over, the brothers were not content to share the wealth. The conflict resolved, however, when Bradford was betrayed by his twin Edgar as he stole his inheritance, and cast him out of the Pennyworth estate. Edgar spread vile lies and gossip of Bradford, tarnishing his name irreparably. Bradford had to continue living with his small fortune he amassed before his exile, while Edgar grew in fame and glory.

Bradford was puzzled after having received the invitation to a mysterious masquerade: no friend or relative should have known where he was now living, he made certain of that. However, this gave him an idea. Bradford decided to take an additional mask with him: the identity of Edgar Pennyworth, his famous and oh-so popular twin brother.

Abilities:
<div class=""bb-indent"">Naomi is very good at manipulating one's mind. She has the unique gift of Persuasion, sort of speak.

There's no rule saying you can't! Although the rules do state that, while in Human form, angels don't get any spectacular powers - they'd have to combat the Sins using mere moral support.

I will go ahead and reserve that for you! I am glad you found this as well! I think this will be a super fun roleplay, especially as it gets going! And Lust is pretty heavily associated with bodily pleasures- but it does depend on how you write it! You just have to be careful that you don't cross in to the other Sin's territory, if you know what I mean! But I think if you do it well you could accomplish it.

Also! We have pretty much no sinners and we totally need those to really get going! I will get a first post up ASAP! I promise!</div>"

Name: Lust

Age: 30

Role: Sin/Lust

Abilities: Can sense/know the level and type of desire in someone, gradually tap into their well of fantasies; transform into whatever physical body the victim wants and produce vivid illusions/reality of the kind; whisper words of temptation that sound irresistible; every touch is undeniably pleasurable. 

Personality: Lust has no gender, psychologically or physically, although, depending on what’s in season in the age it’s in, or the type of crowd it’s in, it can take on a stunning male or female form or any kind of creature necessary. It melds into whatever kind of personality the chosen victim most desires; Lust is the most well-liked and sociable even by and among its siblings. Lust is a person only in relation to someone else. There’s no sharply defined and constant personality and as such is more akin to Sloth in essence despite appearing more like its other siblings. It is cultured and knowledgeable only to the degree of necessity, to what’s needed to seduce and entrap its victim.

Bio: Born out of a frenzy of carnality as old as the first soul, Lust loves the dance of life and the sick, twisted, hellish - exciting, grand, heavenly - pleasures the world has to offer. It has no morals, no judgment, no boundaries. It delights in what the chosen mortal enjoys, it indulges the willing victim by taking them farther than the fringes of their wildest fantasies; it teases wickedly, locking the mortal in a vicious spiral of wanting and having, inching closer and closer to the climax when they scream and beg in tears and sweat for Lust to have their soul. But Lust is never satisfied by the soul(s) it takes, its gratification is always just a hair’s breadth away and never reached, so it’s ever onwards preying for the next life. It has one of, if not the, highest number of souls count. Lust enjoys the game, the more seemingly difficult it is, the more enticed it is to corrupting their soul.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Appeared Age:</span> 21

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Angel/Charity
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> To use the word 'nice' to describe Caritas is such an understatement, so much so that some would call it a sin, but Charitas would forgive you. The androgynous angel had fully adopted a demeanor so simple and kind that even Christ himself viewed the charity the angel has displayed as admirable. Caritas has a very childlike demeanor and optimism in regards to interaction with the world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Caritas, unlike Corbel, is not an angel descended from the Divine Being, but instead is an innocent soul ascended to the rank after experiencing a mortal death.

Caritas was born with earthly name of Tyler Junius in Louisiana several decades ago. His human life was one filled with hardship, his family was poor, his mother was a drug addict, and his father an abusive narcissist-- he was not baptized, as his father was such a pagan that he worshiped himself. A young Tyler was not introduced to Christ until his 8th year on earth, when a Christian relative gifted him with a children's bible. It was through this single act of kindness and charity that, on Tyler's 9th year on earth, when he perished in a house set ablaze by his father's arrogance, that they young boy's soul was saved.

The decades since have seen Tyler cast aside his human name and accept Caritas, a name fitting the angelic qualities of one who was saved through charity and kindness, and now serves as a guardian angel to those who might be known to God through their own selfless acts. Urania, an angel representing the charity of Holy Spirit, sent Caritas to the party, to find and save any souls who might open their hearts to God through the altruism in their hearts.</div></div>

Be it society, his own depression, or the forces of the embodiment of Sloth acting on his soul, something has numbed him to a point where he doesn't really feel emotions, he just occasionally leaves the state of apathy that his mind exists in 90% of the time. He is a sad, depressed individual-- someone who has been on the edge for too long-- and he acts in stereotypical accordance to this.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> What life? The existence James has begun to lead is hardly one worth recounting. After college he began to work-- and that is where James life now remains. Trapped in a purgatory created by his own lack of ambition, he puts little into earning barely enough money to keep himself alive and even less into his own enjoyment when he isn't working. Truth be told, James doesn't know where he got the energy to come to the party-- a certain voice in the back of his head perhaps?</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Appeared Age:</span> 40

<span class=""bb-b"">Role:</span> Damned Spirit/Pride
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> N/A

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Marcus is a bastard. He was the type of person, in life, who became consumed by greed and anger but became an embodiment of megalomania to those around them. Decades spent burning in the fires of hell have only worsened his ego. He has no faults-- he is only in hell because God himself cannot compare to the glory that is Marcus, the fires that scorched his skin black have strengthened his resolve and belief in himself-- and that he embodies his sin so well has only bloated his ego further. He is the best soul to ever be, and others should strive to be like him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Marcus Junius, the image of perfection and goodness, has been burning in the hottest fires of hell, for, 50 years? It doesn't matter much. The man is too proud to admit his wrongdoing in life. Even the depths of the 9th level do nothing to harm his stubborn resolve. In that way, he is strong. The pain he feels is nothing to admitting that he has sinned, that he was.

Marcus Junius was raised on Louisianan Voodoo, and continues to believe and practice his pagan magic. Voodoo, and the deal he made, is what put him in the fire. 

Quite simply, in a test of vanity, Marcus Junius summoned a pagan spirit and asked to be made more powerful than God himself. It didn't turn out so well.

His skin is black from the fires that have only strengthened his belief that he is a god, and the tattoos that adorn his body are to remind him of the false religion he continues to follow.</div></div></div>"

His true form is not a winged humanoid, but an eldritch complex that most would mistake as a Horrorterror from the Furthest Ring. He is also decidedly not nice. Or gentle. Or a pacifist. The best words to assign his person would be, 'Merciless, Exigent, Harrowing.'

He appears to have been sent to the Manor separately to Caritas in a case of the right hand not knowing what the left is doing. His objectives are markedly different, and the means he is willing to employ more varied...and extreme.</div></div></div></div></div>"

Name: Topias Valtonen
Age: ""Not that old yet, Sir, Madam."" 
Personality: Oddly cheery, and perhaps a bit eccentric, Val has been known to show up in the strangest places at very odd times. He almost always seems to perform with a smile, taking great pride in his work or at least appearing to tolerate it very well. He can be a bit odd at times, and has been known to sass others occasionally, but he's still a very hard worker. 
 
Position: ""I perform here and there…"" (Magic Ward Specialist) 
Applicable Bio: ""I have been here for some time, I can't remember exactly how long… But it has been interesting, hasn't it?"" 

Having been a part of this hospital for a while, Val has seen a lot of strange cases. Even as a specialist in the magic ward, exactly what he does is a bit tricky to pin down, as he seems to be a bit of a phantom at times. He does seem to have quite a bit of authority, however… 

Recently, he's been assigned the job of supervising the support group.</div>"

Fluffy ice-blue hair and bright amber eyes. His default expression seems to be a scowl, and he's just a bit shorter than most humans his age. He gets defensive if people talk about his eyebrows. 

There's also a panel in his chest that can be opened. 

Name: Felice 

Age: <span class=""bb-i"">""17…""</span> 

Species: Cursed Doll 

Ability(-s): Doll Possession - Using a power similar to that which trapped him in his artificial body, Felice has the ability to possess dolls either for observation purposes or even to move them around. This takes up a lot of energy, though, and moving the dolls around through possession often requires that he shut down his body to do so. He can't stay for more than a couple of hours at most in another vessel, though he can remain linked for longer to observe. 

Personality: Oddly quiet, actually. When you actually manage to get him to talk, he's normally quite cynical and sarcastic. He's also the kind of person who would likely act rude, then try to make up for it anonymously later. He gets flustered whenever he's caught, though. It seems almost unnatural how little he speaks… 

He seems to practice a lot of performances in his spare time.  

Malady: <span class=""bb-i"">""Felice's Doll Curse"" - Val</span> 
He's trapped in an artificial body, but that's not why he's here. Val found it to be a curious point of study, however, especially since it has some <span class=""bb-i"">strings</span> that can be pulled... 

Applicable Bio: Felice has been a hospital volunteer for a few weeks. He arrived around the time of another young patient's admittance and has been here ever since. Before he arrived here, he had a lot of experience in a performance troupe, but they disappeared under strange circumstances. 

Oddly enough, Val seems to be keeping an eye on him for now, and the boy can sometimes be seen running errands or performing tasks for him.</div>"

~Stands at 4’7 | Very slender and petite~

~Name~
Autumn 

~Age~
15(At least, she was created 15 years ago)

~Species~
She doesn’t know what she is.

~Ability(s)~
Other than turning people to stone, Autumn is able to see using a form of echo-location. However, she needs sound for this to work otherwise she is left in the dark.

~Personality~
Her past scarred her and as a result, Autumn created a wall around herself. She is a very sweet and kind girl that upsets easily. Very clumsy but caring. However, she withdrew in on herself and erected a wall around herself. Everyone always gets hurt around her and if she distances herself from people then they can’t be hurt and neither can she. Everyone always leaves her so if she doesn’t get close, there will be no one there that will leave.

~Malady~
Medusa Curse= Like the Gorgon Medusa, anything she looks at will be turned to stone. So, to prevent herself from harming people, she wears a cloth tied around her eyes.

~Applicable Bio~
Autumn was made by a dark witch who wanted a creation to wreak havoc with. However, instead of an empty shell that only followed orders, Autumn was a sentient being able to think and feel for herself. Useless to the witch, Autumn was abused for the better part of her life. The witch had no need for her and so one day the witch tried to get rid of her. But Autumn managed to evade the woman. However, at one point when Autumn pushed her away she landed in the fire. As she burned she screamed out a curse. Made out of wood, the small hunt caught fire and Autumn fled the burning inferno. She was now lost and confused in a world she didn’t understand. 

People tried to help her along the way but everyone she meet she turned to stone. People became afraid of her and turned her away whenever they caught sight of her. They called her horrible names like monster and demon, staying she should not exist in this world. One instance, a boy no younger than six spotted her staggering down the road. He had ran over to her to see if she needed help but as soon as he caught sight of her crimson eyes he was turned to rock. His mother ran out of the house and over to her son, wailing in grief when she got to him. The men of the family came out and drove Autumn off with rocks and guns. Afraid and ashamed of her existence, Autumn hid. However, one day the Hospital found her and took her in.</div></div>"

Name:  James Hunter
Age: 16
Species:  Human(sort of)
Ability(-s):  Gigalomania: He can create his own delusions at will, and can send those delusions to others, but once enough people have it, or if it's a strong enough delusion, it becomes real. This also allows him telepathy, because he can read minds and send his thoughts and ideas to others.
Personality: He rarely talks, and avoids people, so nobody really knows what he's like.
Malady:  His gigalomania makes him see delusions all the time, so he has trouble discerning what's real and what's not, which is slowly driving him insane.
Applicable Bio: At a young age James found that he was seeing things others couldn't see, but sometimes he would see strange things that at first only he could see, but soon everyone else would see it too. Because of his delusions, others avoided him, and thought that he was insane. So he's pretty much been alone all this time. Also, things that should work through sight or things that affect the mind don't work on him because of his delusions.</div>"

 Name: Spook (Felitz)
 Age: 24
 Species: Familiar
 Ability(-s):
 Telepathy: Lacking the ability to verbally communicate with humans, familiars use telepathy to send images, feelings, or in some cases even direct language to others around them.
 Transformation: Felitz had the ability to transform from his human form to that of a cat.
 Mystic Focus: Familiars are used to focus the energy of a witch, magician, wizard, etc. when performing spells. A familiar typically lacks any kind of magical energy themselves, but can help control and strengthen the spells cast by someone else.
 Personality: Felitz is very cautious, and doesn't trust strangers. It is difficult for him to form a bond with someone he has recently met, and even then will only share information he feels is relevant. He prefers to stay on the sidelines during a competition or fight, and will sacrifice gory and recognition in exchange for anonymity.
 Malady: Irrevocably transformed into his alternate self.
 Applicable Bio: Felitz grew up as the 6th son of a well-off businessman, and was the odd one out among his brothers.  When they were participating in an activity, Felitz would always be the one keeping score or holding the camera. When he was old enough to leave home, he apprenticed to an elderly magician living in the area. They worked well together, and Felitz found that he liked and trusted the old man. The young man agreed to be the magician's familiar; a companion to help focus the magician's power. However, after a spell misfired and trapped Felitz in his familiar form, the magician skipped town, leaving the problem unsolved.</div>"

Name:  Luna Vincent
Age: 16
Species: Human, maybe?
Ability(-s): Psychometry, gaining information by touch, for example, learning how to use a weapon by touching it, learning when the last call was made on a phone by touching it, detect injuries or health problems by touching a person, gain knowledge from books, etc. She deals in ONLY past and present information, no future, and doesn’t get emotions or thoughts. When she starts taking on too much information she gets headaches until she faints from the pain.  
Personality: Luna is the quiet and shy type, preferring to follow the crowd and keep her head down rather than be a leader and stand out. She speaks eloquently and without a stutter when spoken to because of lessons, but she doesn’t talk much unless spoken to. She is compassionate and likes people but can be afraid to approach them or make friends in fear of upsetting them, either through mistakenly using her powers or upsetting them. She often conceals her thoughts and emotions too, until she can’t take it anymore and explodes. 
Malady: She was recently hit by a car and has become paralyzed from the waist down. She is in the hospital being treated for her injuries and attempting to adjust to no longer being able to use her legs.
Applicable Bio: The Vincent family is a very rich family that owns a large business and is very well off. Luna, as the youngest child and not the one to inherit the company, was often ignored. She got anything material or food wise that she wanted, needed or asked for, but was mostly neglected and left alone. Her parents didn’t really care about what happened to her as long as she stayed in line, favoring her older siblings. When she came into her powers she was told to always conceal them. When she got sick, they put her in the hospital.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Full Name</span></span>
Dakota &amp; ""Raven"" Wilds.


<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Species</span></span>
Advanced human with two different paths: one for magic (Dakota) and one for psychic abilities (""Raven"").

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Abilities</span></span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Dakota</span></span> - Basically, he's a zodiac mage, meaning that he can tap into the element that is classified by his zodiac. In this case, Dakota is a Libra, meaning that his element is wind -- it's a more complex way of saying ""wind mage"". Being the same person as Raven, the two are indirectly connected by a telepathic link as well.</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Raven</span></span> - Gifted with both telepathy and empathy, Raven can also see through Dakota's eyes when the two are separated. His only offensive ability is telekinesis. Due to not being ""whole"" with his other self, Raven struggles with confidence when it comes to using abilities, therefore, nerfing the hell out of them and often causing him to feel faint or completely pass out entirely.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span></span></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Dakota</span></span> - Affable, relaxed and secretly very confused. Literally obsessed with the idea of chicken nugget cults and the communists at KFC trying to take over the world, it becomes apparent very quickly as to why people treat Dakota as being a little crazy. Truthfully, he isn't entirely there, as he isn't aware of the fate of his brother (or at least not on the surface) and doesn't seem to remember the injustices he suffered as a child. Because of being two different people, Dakota has a one-track mind that exists on two different planes of existence: one where everything is actually happening and one where he is able to hear or see the thoughts of others. Unfortunately, he cannot tell the difference between the two thinking processes and therefore, causes him to occasionally outburst or create statements that make no sense. Due to his current mental state, he is unable to care about anyone aside from ""Raven"".</li></ul>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Raven</span></span> - Serious, mysterious and a little cold. ""Raven"" is extremely goal-driven and very sarcastic, especially to his other half. He is often the one tasked with cleaning up messes caused by other people and is surprisingly down-to-earth, despite his unapproachable exterior. Extremely intelligent and burdened with the memories that his other self cannot seem to recall, he has a severe lacking of common sense. It is unlike Raven to be up front with people and thus, as a result, tends to keep secrets, especially the one involving having two different halves.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Malady</span></span>
Unaware to it, Dakota suffers from a multi-personality disorder on a completely different plane of existence. Because of the torment he received as a child from the ghost of his deceased older brother, Raven, his mind completely shattered resulting in two different entities: Raven, which has all the memories and is well aware of his circumstances and Dakota, who is treated as nothing more than just an empty shell of shattered memories.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Applicable Biography</span></span>
The second child of a witch and a psychic, Dakota spent a majority of his childhood being believed by one parent and not the other. It was obviously a spiteful act on each other and not on him, as they were in the middle of heavy times after the intentional death of their eldest child, Raven, who took his life at the age of thirteen. And the family members sure did enjoy blaming each other, to the point of oblivion when it came to Raven's ghost haunting the family, all except for little Dakota. 

And it was that very same haunting that caused the boy's fragile mind to shatter, causing him to create two versions of himself: ""Raven"" and the empty shell left behind. ""Raven"" never aged physically and followed Dakota everywhere, despite always being connected through telepathy and each other's eyesight. In return, Dakota was entirely lost without Raven and without memories of what happened as a child, he believed the same that everyone else outside of the family did: ""Raven"" was Dakota's little brother and that was the end of the story.

People would arrive for various reasons: Injuries, sickness, check-ups, just like any other hospital. Unlike most hospitals, though, this one had a separate wing specifically for the study and treatment of magical phenomenon. Humans, non-humans, mythical beasts and even those with unexplainable abilities were admitted for most anything from common sicknesses to powerful curses. From fairies to human wizards and everything in between, the establishment had to have many different kinds of people to deal with the needs of many different kinds of patients. 

Over time, the hospital grew more successful, and people of all kinds flocked to it for research, employment, or help. With the community growing so quickly, though, it was eventually decided that perhaps more could be done to help the emotional state of many of the people who would wake up or return there every day for their own reasons. 

Therefore, at the request and backing of a certain magician, a trial program was started for a young crowd of patients. Today, all patients would be called to room A3-214 for the first meeting of the NEST Program. The room would consist of a fairly open space with plenty of windows for a calming view of the outside greenery and the sea off in the distance as well as a few tables and chairs for activities. On the wall at the front of the room sat a whiteboard with a note written in blue: ""Please take a seat, I shall return shortly. No fighting or mischief until then. ^_^""</span></div>"

He was given a small room with a large window and a soft carpet to nap on, and there was always plenty to eat. It was almost better than at home.

There was not much information available about the new NEST program.  At least, none of the staff he often communicated with knew what it was. He was slightly curious about it, and today would be the day to find out.  The summonses arrived in the form of a fancy invitation, handwritten by what appeared to be a fountain pen.  The stationery smelled slightly of lavender and old leather, with a hint of something that made Spook's stomach crawl.

He made his way to room A3-214 in his usual roundabout way, stopping every 20 feet or so to visit a nurse or patient.  He wasn't worried about getting sick; one of the benefits of working for a magician is amazing health coverage.  Spook was immune to most of the common physical diseases, and he was in a hospital, in case something more serious did affect him.

The room, once he arrived, was empty.  The few tables and chairs seemed to be haphazardly spread across the room, with their only organization in that they were mostly contained to the left side of the room.  There was plenty of open space on the right half, Spook assumed that would be used for activities in the future.  As he made his way to the front of the room, he noted the lack of wear on the chairs and tables.

A large whiteboard at the front of the room gave him a greeting in blue letters.  It politely asked him to take a seat and wait for their mysterious host, as well as to avoid trouble with the other students.  Not deigning to sit in one of the provided chairs, Spook jumped lightly onto a windowsill near the front of the room to wait in the sunlight.</div>"

One of the nurses had been kind enough to show her the way ahead of time. Her usual black silk blindfold was tied around her eyes, no light seeping to her dangerous iris's. However, she was not entirely robbed of sight. She just saw differently than other people. Much like the echo-location a bat used, Autumn had similar abilities. However, she lacked the bat's talent of producing its own echo and so she had to make due with remembering the number of steps it took to get places. She was rather good at it now. 

As she moved forward her steps created blue and purple ripples in the darkness, items in a foot radius of the ripples appearing and so it helped aide her in her journey. One slender hand resting on the wall also provided assistance. The nurses had told her that something was being worked on that would emit a high-frequency sound that would use the bat's form of location and create a funnel of sound so she would be able to see a few feet in front of her. However, this was still long from being completed but she couldn't wait until it was. 

As she walked she had been counting in her head and when she came to the correct number she paused and felt around until she found the plate next to the door. Luckily, she had learned braille and so as she ran her small fingers over the raised bumps she smiled as A3-214 appeared until her touch. She then fumbled around for the doorknob, found it then twisted it and stepped inside. She hovered in the doorway, unsure of her surroundings. 

She didn't know if anyone was in the room thought she wasn't able to hear anything. <font color=""violet"">""Hello?""</font> She called, ripples appearing and allowing her to see a few chairs next to her. Still no people though. Was she the only one there?</div>"

It wasn't much different from any other day so far, but that group meeting was supposed to happen soon and he had to be there. True, it was an open enrollment type of thing as he had been told, but his...supervisor had requested his presence there as one of the attendees. So now, that was where he was currently headed with a box of who-knew-what as instructed that morning. 

The short boy let out a small puff of air as he neared the room, thinking about how odd his supervisor was. The box full of unknowns actually wasn't that strange, since he actually had run a bunch of errands like that since arriving here, but he didn't fully understand why the rest of this had been announced to him out of the blue like it had been. 

When he finally entered the room, he noticed that it was still mostly empty, with only a young girl and...a cat? Well, there was probably as much of an explanation for that as there was for anything else here. Unbothered by it, he placed the box in his hands on the desk at the front before turning to get another look at those who were already there. The girl appeared to be blindfolded, though, so he assumed that she probably didn't know about the note on the board. 

""...take a seat anywhere. There are some chairs right next to you.""</div>"

I apologize for being late, I had to take care of a few things before I could get here. I hope that I haven't kept you waiting for long~!""</font> 

Walking over to the whiteboard, the tall male dressed in the black and white robes of the magic ward supervisors picked up an eraser and wiped off the message he had left before turning back to the others. <font color=""#fef1b5"">""Now, is everyone here for the support group? If there's anyone who believes that they may be in the wrong place, now is a good time to speak up. Oh, and please take a seat, they're all right there.

Her head turned this way and that, trying to figure out from where in the room the voice originated from. She guessed they were across the room. Upon hearing his words she said a quiet <font color=""violet"">""thank you""</font> as she reached down, fingers bumping into the seat of the chair. She carefully sat down, folding her hands in her lap. She knew one person was in the room but if anybody else was they were being really quiet. She wondered who all would come. She didn't know many of the other patients in the hospital, preferring to be by herself. And besides, people were safer when they stayed away from her.

She heard the door open again and turned her head towards the noise, the voice that followed causing ripples. She heard the steps walk by her then head away, towards where she had guessed the other voice had come from. Autumn then sat there quietly waiting for whatever is was she had been called there for to begin.</div>"

He was usually aware when people approached, but the room had a quiet, drowsy feel, much like a library, and it seemed he had dozed off.

As the teacher, or so he assumed, made his way to the front of the room, Spook looked back at the other newcomers. Most people would be somewhat surprised to see a living puppet, but it certainly wasn't the strangest thing Spook had seen in this hospital. The cat was more interested in the human girl with the blindfold. She moved strangely, advancing only when someone was speaking. Perhaps some form of echolocation, but without the clicking noise bats and dolphins made.

He leapt lightly down from the windowsill and crossed to a chair on the front row. He didn't want to get in trouble with their new teacher. Not yet, anyway.</div>"

He noticed the cat that had also jumped into a seat, not thinking too much about it. That was probably just another one of the patients, and he didn't doubt for a second that magic cats could probably be found seeking treatment here alongside the numerous other creatures he saw he day to day.

<font color=""#fee5ac"">""Well, then, shall we begin? Everyone should be here for the support group meeting, so hopefully nobody's lost. I'm actually not too surprised that it's a small group today, since this was just announced, but this just means that we'll all have to get to know each other very well, won't we? That's not really a bad thing considering the goal here~.""</font> 

The cheerful man nodded before speaking again. <font color=""#fee5ac"">""So, let's start with introductions then, shall we? We'll go around the group in order and everyone is to say...hmm...how about your name, a hobby of yours, and why you're here if you feel comfortable with sharing.

""I'll start: My name is Topias Valtonen, but please feel free to call me Val. My hobby is baking, and I'm here as a researcher and practitioner of magic arts as well as the advisor for this group for the time being~!"" He clapped his hands together happily as he looked around the room at the others briefly. ""Now let's see...young miss with the blindfold, why don't you go next? Remember: Your name, one hobby, and your reason for being here if you're comfortable with sharing.""</font></div>"

She recognized as the person that had walked in behind her. Ripples went around the room, allowing her to see briefly that there were four people in the room including herself. Well, three people and a cat. As the ripples faded she listened quietly as the man explained how the introductions would work and then beginning himself. She had already assumed he had worked there from the way he had talked when he came into the room. After he finished saying his name and what he did, it took her a few moments to realize he had directed his attention to her. She folded her hands in her lap, staring in the direction she had heard his voice coming from. <font color=""violet"">""My name is Autumn and I like listening to music.""</font> She said in a quiet voice. She fidgeted slightly before taking a deep breath. <font color=""violet"">""A-And the reason I'm here is because my mo..because my mother cursed me.""</font> She said, hand subconsciously raising to touch her blindfold. Yes, the witch had been horrible to her but she was still Autumn's maker, her mother. In a way Autumn still loved the woman because she <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> given Autumn life.</div>"

An image of a young, middle-eastern man appeared in the minds of those gathered nearby, accompanied by a heavily-accented voice. &lt;My name is Felitz, but you may call me Spook now. My favorite hobby was playing football, but now I no longer have the energy for it. I am here at the hospital because of a magical accident caused by my former employer.&gt; The young man in the mental image changed into Spook's form now, a plump, black cat with amber eyes, then disappeared from view.</div>"

She'd been sleeping a lot these days. The doctors said something about her body being tired and needing to recover her strength, but she still didn't quite understand why she had to take so many naps in a day. She found a note left for her, saying she needed to go to her NEST club meeting.

She sat up and pushed the blankets off. She smoothed out her summer dress and pulled her wheelchair closer. Technically, Luna should be calling a nurse for this, but now that there were several things Luna was no longer able to do on her own, she was determined to be able to do as many things as she could by herself, including this. She reached to arrange her bed to its height was level with the chair. She braced herself and moved her body in the chair, and then grabbed a hold of her legs and swung them onto the footrests. All this done, she wheeled herself to the mirror and fingered through her hair to make it look less bedhead before exiting the room.

She wheeled down the hall, ignoring the sympathetic and pitying looks. A few nurses offered to push her to wherever she needed to go, but Luna smiled and told them she could make it on her own. She <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> make it on her own.

At last, she wheeled into room A3-214. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Oh, am I late? I'm sorry.""</font></div>"

There's nothing to worry about, we've just started introductions is all, so please feel free to situate yourself wherever is most comfortable for you.""</font> 

Turning back to the others seated in the chairs, he nodded toward the boy near the end of the semicircle of chairs. <font color=""#fee5ac"">""Felice, your introduction, please? And then the young miss who just arrived. Remember: Name, hobby, and the reason you're here, if you don't feel uncomfortable saying it.""</font> 

The amber-eyed boy looked over at the others from his seat, still scowling slightly. ""Felice. I can juggle. I was requested to be here."" After his short reply, he settled back in his seat and continued observing. He honesty wasn't really sure what he would be getting out of these sessions, but he doubted that he would be getting out of them anytime soon. Even if he left as an attendee, he didn't doubt that he could still be dragged back as an assistant.</div>"

She listened politely to the boy, Felice, as he spoke. 

She knew they were staring at her, especially after Felice stopped speaking. Well, maybe not outright staring, but it was like the nurses in the hallway - people couldn't not look at pitiful scenes, it was part of the human instinct, the whole at-least-that-isn't-me sort of thing. She shifted in her chair and cleared her voice. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""My name is Luna, and I""</font> she paused for a moment, searching for a hobby that she hadn't started because her mother told her to. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I like to sing. I've never sang in front of other people though.""</font> She thought back to make sure she hadn't forgotten anything. Oh yes, her reason for being here. ""Well, it should be pretty obvious why I'm here,"" she said, resting her hand on one of her wheels, <font color=""#6ecff6"">""but, for the sake of doing so, my legs have been paralyzed. All the docs say I'll never walk again, unless some miracle happens. So I'm here for rehab.""</font></div>"

Well, also Jordan's, since it was his brilliant idea to visit the asylum as a surprise birthday present for Dakota that had gone horribly wrong (when he should have just gone home instead like everyone and their mother at least commented on once). Instead of it being any sort of ""fun"", Rory and Oliver took it out of their schedule to startle Raven's ghost and lock them in there. Honestly, if it weren't for Officer Pratt and Bentley arriving half-drunk, they could all be dead right about now.

Instead, Raven was ever determined to become whole with his other half and landed them in here. It was a good choice, honestly, and it was recommended by Ezana, so Raven knew there would be little spooks and scares along the way, but definitely some hardships. It was basically the spiritual world's equivalent of a mental illness, wasn't it?

So on the day of the introduction for the NEST program, Raven did everything in his power to try to avoid it. Dakota made it much easier as he ranted on and on about the experiments that he and Rory made in the closet of their dorm, something about KFC communists plotting to take over the world and how the Wendy's empire would come out victorious in the end. Oh, and something about how Raven lacked ""discipline"".

Raven just nodded his head absentmindedly and stared out the window. <span class=""bb-i"">What was his obsession with fast food, anyway?</span> What was more annoying, dealing with Dakota's incessant ranting or dealing with a few other ill individuals? Sighing, Raven was forced to make up his mind. ""Dakota, we're late,"" he remarked with little emotion or concern.

""Oh, ok,"" his other self sat up on the bed before getting up, ""Where are we going?""

""To room A3-214. Now walk quickly, we're late.""

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">---</span></div>

It only took them about six or seven minutes to arrive there, but it was mostly due to Dakota's distractions and one-track mind. When they finally arrived, the two ""brothers"" stepped into the room where there was a crowd of others sitting, ""...Uhm.. this wouldn't happen to be for the NEST program, would it be?""

Everyone in the room looked fairly normal, so there was some doubt -- was that a cat? And a doll? Was this some sort of sick mental picture out of someone's strange mind?

<span class=""bb-i"">Oh boy, this would be definitely be interesting.</span></div>"

Had everybody been giving those weird eyes the entire day? He didn't think his current condition was that well known or even that strange, but word had apparently gotten around or something. 

Val must have blabbed the details to someone. Or maybe it was the odd movements. He had been feeling a little off since he renewed his primary link lately. 

Straightening out the blue smock he wore, he leaned back a little lazily into his chair and continued watching, almost daring the boy to say something. 

Val, on the other hand, smiled cheerfully as always at the boy. ""Another one? Please come on in and take a seat, if you please. We're just getting introductions out of the way, so if you could tell us a name, hobby, and reason for being here as long as you don't mind sharing, we can continue.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">The Magiers Schwarzadler Hospital is an establishment that takes care of many kinds of people in many kinds of difficult situations. Unlike many other hospitals, though, this place was developed as a means to provide care for those a little different than most. 

Various kinds of people come through this hospital and rehabilitation center, some of them not even human or with characteristics different from most humans, and all for various reasons. Whether it's a physical ailment, a curse, or another sort of trouble, Magiers Hospital prides itself on providing excellent care wherever possible. 

In addition to the regular and magical hospital treatments, Magiers is also now offering a program that helps the younger patients get to know others like them while they are staying there. This new experimental program was said to have been implemented by a certain eccentric higher-up to assist in providing emotional support for young patients, but exactly what will be the result? And how much of this was really intended?</span>

Various forms of healing are practiced and researched at this hospital, and it is in an area that grants plenty of private outside space for the use of larger creatures in rehabilitation. 

The staff is heavily varied in training, from dragon tamers to regular clinicians and even some mages and alchemists. No matter what the malady, Magiers is very well equipped to help get patients through it.</div></div>

At the end of each month, reports are sent in regarding the success of the group and the progress of the youths enrolled. Exactly what does it all mean, though?</div></div>

well, the mind reading and speaking through telepathy doesn't really have much of a limit other than if he uses it for too long his head will slowly hurt more and more until it's unbearable. The problem with gigalomania though, is that something won't become real until it's part of the collective awareness. A lot of people have to realize it, and that requires a lot of energy. Also, about half the time it isn't controllable. The delusions usually come at random, and giving himself a delusion on purpose requires a lot of concentration.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">A small person Sigur is not standing higher than most men and built of taut towering muscle. Due to the circumstances of his birth and his progenitors he looks the part of one of an orchish descent. His Skin color is green in pigmentation echoing the color of the Parrot Toadstool and the green scourge marks him different from any normal man. His face is square in composition with a strong jutting jaw, a dominate forward sloping forehead, and thick eyebrows. His prominent lower incisors jutting out from his mouth giving him a predatory visage that is intimidating to those whose only knowledge of orckin come from tales spoken by old wet nurses. His body is worn and melded like tested iron coated in cuts, bruises, scars and marks of battle. The most prominent of these trophies of combat as they were was located on his back stretching from his left shoulder down and across to the edge of his right hip from when he met the unfriendly end of a Zweihänder. His muscle structure was created under his formative years with Brand and would became continually harnessed over his career as a traveling adventurer with notably impressive arm definition from the draw strength required to wield the massive longbows he uses. His hair was coarse and black tied up above his head in the chonmage style.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Under the tutelage of Brand of the Nightwood, Sigur learned the structural foundations of forestry. These skills ranged from tracking, hunting, wilderness survival and combat skills. Beside being trained in the art of two-handed combat Brand made the decesion to use Sigur own natural strength to the young half-orcs advantage teaching him how to use a longbow, these massive bows made of strong yew required years of training to use do to the massive draw weight behind them and so that was what Brand did starting his training when he was just a boy. Possessing natural darkvision, the ranger can see with ranges close to twenty paces in any direction. Capable of great burst of strength when needed, the wrath of an angry orckin was not something most wanted to witness in their lives. Semi-fluent in the art of bartering and shrewd haggling as spending time as a mercenary has lead to him arguing over contracts and payments from time to time though this attempts were usually unsuccessful due to some peoples hatred toward his kind. Can speak and understand the languages of Giants and Goblins at least passing for fluent but not at the level of a native speaker. Good at spelunking due to his natural affinity towards caves and dank dark places.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Sigur was a product of less than civilized circumstances. His mother was an Orc who lived in a tribe in the eastern steppes and his father was a Human raider from a village that was slowly spreading into the Orcs' territory; Raiders generally follow the same three principles no matter the race, the three tenants of rape, pillage and burn, Sigur was a product of the first of this triad. After being defiled by a human man the people of Sigur mother's tribe banished her following tradition and sent her out into the wildness to find peace. The journey of his mother was a long and arduous one that took her across mountains, through valleys and wandering through forests and could be a tale all within its self but in Sigur story the important thing is she made it to the Nightwood, a secluded forest where she could raise her child in peace. But this idealistic childhood never came to term as soon after Sigur was born his mother was hunting she was shot by a bandit an arrow piercing one of her lungs. Bran would find this Orc women clutching her child barely weeks old in her arms as she slowly died from bloodless and the mother beg for him to take mercy and take the child for he had done nothing wrong and still had a life ahead of him, putting her faith into a man that could very well of been just like the one that raped her long ago. Though thankfully Brand was not a savage, but a kind and just man and agreed to take the child ending the mothers woes and silencing her pain with the gentle caress of steel against her throat. 

And so from the time Sigur was just a child only a few weeks old until his ascent to manhood he lived with Bran and the other orphans he had taken under his wing. This time was good for Sigur for even though through observation like how his skin was a different color, he grew faster, he became stronger quicker than the others learning that his own identity was different, that his blood made him something else he was never treated differently. Brand was not a man to judge others based on their background or who they once were he only judged them on what they could become and treated them all the same. He did not go easy on those that were struggling but he did not become lax on the stronger ones like Sigur. He pushed the half-orc to become the best that he could possibly achieve, to become something that his mother would eventually of been proud of, a hero the pantheon of the gods could write songs and sing praise of. Most importantly at all he was to live up to the namesake bestowed upon him, for you see Sigur did not have a name when Brand found him and so the ranger had to come up with a name for the baby and so he named him Sigur after a story he once heard. Sigur was one of the greatest heroes in the old orchish creation myths, they said that he was twelve fight tall and his skin was not green and made of flesh but of bronze and as glorious as steel, that while his people were covered in darkness he was the one to light the first flame and cast the Great Shadow into Darkness. He was the man that fought a thousand wars and never lost a single one, the glorious poet and the ideal example of a champion. And so the young half-orc had a lot to live up to.

At the age of sixteen he left Brand's care and set out to find his place in the world. He was getting restless and needed to do something for if he was living in a tribe he would of already taken a wife, became a hunter and successfully produced offspring almost two years prior. Brand told the boy that he always had a home in the Nightwood and that whatever happened the wood would always except him with open arms. Sigur would always remember those words as he set out his first job was protecting a merchant caravan heading towards the capital and this was where he met a Drow girl a year older than him by the name of Ysar also working the caravans. Ysar was one of the few drow not born deep in the depths of the earth her parents having left out of wanderlust long ago. The two quickly bonded with one another and became close friends mainly due to their positions straddling the outer rims of society. She was everything Sigur could of even wanted courage, confident, smart and oh so very <span class=""bb-i"">flexible.</span> And so it was of little surprise when the two became more than just traveling companions. 

Over the years the two traveled about the lands of civilization taking jobs as hired swords and general mercenary work. The life suited Sigur well it was exciting and filled with adventure and adrenaline at every turn. More importantly he was good at it, through Brand's training and his own fine tuning of his skills he was a formidable foe to deal with. Some exaggerated the tales of Sigur prowess like any good tale has with him wrestling a dragon, taking down an entire bandit camp one handed and other great feats which if you asked the man himself he would refer that truth lies within them somewhere but not giving you a hint of what that truth was. Though this all changed ten years after he left the Nightwood, where events occurred that would shape the rest of his life. He and Ysar were contracted by a merchant house to guard one of their caravans going through the Southern Wastes far to the south of Vendland, a land notable for its abundance of slavers and bandits that prowl the shifting sands. It was here that he first felt the true pain of betrayal and would be the act that made him put down his bow for a time. This truth of matter was that before they had left with the caravan, one of the largest raider groups that would be operating in the area sent an envoy to speak with Ysar. They explained in simple terms that for the price of the caravans route, the drow could not only live to see another day but be paid a vast fortune. Ysar did love Sigur very much but the sad truth of it was she loved the sound of coins in her pocket much more. And so a deal was struck and an ambush point was made.

When the time finally came the raiders came from seemingly nowhere, well prepared and knowing exactly where every guard was stationed and where the most vital supplies were held. It was a slaughter beyond anything Sigur was ever expecting and yet he fought on through the chaos, not concerned for himself, not cornered for the gold, no he was looking for Ysar the one of his affection that he wanted to keep safe. He did not know the betrayal and when he had found it was already too late, with Ysar plunging a dagger into chest. The last time he saw of her was her departing as the Raiders took him off to sell him into slavery and she went back north, back the way they had came together. Sigur was sold to a human slaver by the name of Rydor Amslet and was put into work rowing his slave galley for what accumulated into six months. In these six months Sigur nursed his wounds, and more importantly he nursed his shattered heart and somewhere found the resolve to overcome it and organize a revolt aboard the galley. They say that the slaves killed every last slaver on the ship, they say that Sigur himself ripped Rydor Amslet arm off of his body and beat him to death with it, they say that after two more months of ruff seas the galley landed in the southern harbors captained by a half-orc who's skin glistened in the sunlight and look stone willed and determined.

After that Sigur retired from the mercenary business. Calling in a favor from a girl that he onced saved from kidnapped named Adelia Monstisper who after her father's death became the sole head of the Monstiper Merchant House one of the dominate Merchant House of the southern reaches. Ms. Monstisper was able to set him up with a small swath of land in a comfortable little village where it was pleasantly warm and sunny where he grew wheat. Having traded in his sword for a plow he set up shop and became an important part of the village where none cared much about his battle scars or his orcish blood and things were good. Though rumors did float up and about when one Adelia Monstiper would occasionally appear in the town and pay visit to the simple farmer Sigur who talked about nothing but grains and harvests, and cold never know somebody as powerful as she.

Though sad news was delivered to him, Brand had died. The man that had taught him everything he knew about survival, living and what it really meant to be alive, died protecting children. In a way Sigur thought that to be poetic and a just way to die. But he knew that he had to make his way north back to  Bosfyrd to pay his respects to the man that once saved him. Donning his ranger outfit for the first time in close to five years Sigur set off from his little farm and headed North. It was time for him to come home.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Sigur is like many half-orcs, in that he has an inherent sense of confidence and trust in his abilities and strengths to overcome those that oppose him, which he gets called out on from time to time. A man of rather blunt and simple tastes he never really fit with high soceity and preferred the tavern life of fighting, sleeping, drinking. Though at the same time he has some very unorthodox ways of approaching problems gained from Brand's initial training and years spent as a meracnyy learning to not follow conventional methods but rather going with his gut. Though after Ysar's betrayal he changed some what, in that his brash kill or be killed philosophy sort of died down. Thinking more with his head and using words to try and persuade his opponents rather than going into direct confrontation, he outwardly became more passive and freidnly though on the inside this was back with a rising paranoia towards those he did not know. The life of Sigur the farmer and Sigur the mercenary and their philosophies conflicted with one another tremendously as one tried to bury his past and move on and the other used it as the burning rage to keep him moving. Holding no real qualms about fighting dirty he used whatever he could from poison, to throwing dirt and setting up ambushes. The pain of his conflicted nature was that distastes could be created unwillingly depnding on if he was too calm or too aggressive and part of his trouble is trying to find that balance again. He holds a odd code of morals not against killing but as long as they are not innocent, not against stealing as long as they deserve it, his only mantra is that he kills monsters. What a monsters is can be something beastly or something disturbingly human.</div>

<div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Lysandra is of average height and weight for a female. Standing around 5’6 – 5’7 and weighing somewhere around 120ish.

Long auburn blonde hair accents perfectly against the backsplash of her fair skin and light freckles across her face. Her facial features are soft in nature giving her an almost child-like innocence with big hazel eyes, but it is something not to be fooled by. Although not visible, Lysandra hides various scars; most are small and far in between from scuffles and battles. The most prominent of all is a small thin line on the right side of her abdomen, just above the waist, a living reminder of the time her guard was laxed and was stabbed.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Being one of the few privileged orphans to have trained under Brand of the Nightwood, Lyssandra is anything but innocent. Aside from having an in-depth understanding of forestry - all that it entitles and survival skills, Lysandra is a skilled and deadly hand-to-hand combatant. Although not terribly strong she relies on her speed, agility, and grappling fighting style to quickly take out a target(s) in a quick and quiet manner. From a young age Brand molded her entire training around these set of skills and although it is a more dangerous and fast paced style of fighting she has truly made it her own.

	While being more adept to short ranged weapons such as daggers and throwing knives, Lysandra can at the very least hold her own when it comes to sword fighting. Again, she does lack the physical strength to go head-on against many opponents, which forces her to find other and more creative ways to win. However, her preferred and most favored weapons are her twin rope daggers wrapped around her wrist and poised to strike at a flick of her arm. Lysandra has a certain taste for a degree of flare when it comes to fighting. Knowing how to fight is without a doubt a useful and a most needed skill but Lysandra has also honed other skills. The woman has a silver tongue like no other, slithering her way out of more than a few troublesome situations. She isn’t afraid to use her beauty as a weapon or to get the upper hand either.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Lysandra was born to the exotic prostitute named Rose due to her uncanny red hair, which no doubtedly was an excellent feature to have in her profession. Having a child as a lady of the night was detrimental for business, but the pregnancy was already to far for it to be terminated and with no choice Rose had to suffer through nine long months. Raising a child in a brothel was out of the question and truly feeling no love for the babe, it was easy to give the baby girl up to the first church she came across. She was handed down to an elderly woman named Galantra, who became known as her ‘church mother’ and named the child Noemi. 
Noemi remained with the church for five years where she was taught the basics of how to write and read; and was being groomed to be a lady of religion. Galantra always believed that because Noemi had been born from a prostitute that in her sinful nature she would naturally try to follow in her mother’s footsteps and believed that daily severe reprimanding would deter the young girl from doing so.

But it only made the poor little girl grow cold and hateful of the elderly woman. Noemi would spend her free time staring out the door and fantasizing what it would be like to be one of the rich and wealthy women that walked by the church. To wear fancy dresses made of exotic materials and to have Prince Charming open doors for her. She dreamed of being their daughter and getting to wear miniature version of the fancy dresses and getting to play with dolls, but sadly it was all just wishful dreams. The truth of her reality was to be doomed to slaving away under Galantra’s tutelage and spending the rest of her life chained to the church. Till luck or misfortune, depends on who you ask, came crashing through the city as a squadron of King Harold’s army. Subsequently, Galantra was killed during the initial hostile take over, the church was closed and Noemi found herself in the streets with no mother to speak off and no roof over her head at five years of age. She slipped out of the city with a group of refugees, who helped her by disguising her as a boy, and for the better half of the year she spent it on the road, drifting from one village to the next. Noemi quickly had to adept to her new lifestyle learning how to steal and not get caught to merely survive each night. And so life went on - a day became a month and a month became two as the group traveled further and further north. On the third month of the gypsy life, disaster struck again this time in the guise of bandits. In the commotion and mayhem Noemi got separated from the group and was caught by the bandits along with a few others, they reckoned they could make a shiny coin or two if they sold the boy to some slavers. That same night, however, luck was on her side when her captors were ambushed. It was on that eventful, and rather frightening, night that little Noemi met her rescuer, Brand. With nowhere to call home and no one to call family, the ranger became her new guardian.

Noemi finally had a place to call her own, a man to call ‘father’ for all terms and purposes, and a group of orphans to call family. Her years were spent not only training but also studying and helping with chores and anything else that needed to be done around the estate. On her thirteen birthday Noemi decided that she no longer wanted to be called as such. That name belonged to another girl from another life and so she began to demand that everyone called her Lysandra, erasing Noemi from history almost entirely. But Noemi would never truly die; her dream of being a wealthy woman was now Lysandra’s dream. And so at the age of nineteen the young woman set her ambitious eyes on the capitol, on all the wealthy lonely gentlemen that had fat purses ripped for the taking.

During her time in the city she took on a different alias and met an assassin for hire named Dorian; he was neither lonely nor wealthy, but the two’s ambitious nature and dangerous lifestyle attracted one another like months to a flame. The two of them schemed and cheated the wealthy out of their shiny coins amassing a growing fortune. Even though, Brand’s teaching were at Lysandra’s core values so she always gave and helped the less fortunate- it didn’t mean, however, she too couldn’t enjoy the spoils of her work. A year later fancy dresses, handmaids ready at her every call, a wealthy house in the upper class ring of the city and a line of suitors from her door all the way down the street. The name Olivia Reed quickly became a well known-name like her father’s and some of her orphan sibling, but for entirely different reasons. While Dorian remain a shadow in the background enjoying the spoils and doing the shady work. The two had a secret affair behind closed door and Lysandra dared to hope it was love. Of course she was mistaken. The wealthy and rich finally caught on to Olivia’s little ploy and when the law came crashing through the door, Dorian betrayed her with a knife in her midsection and disappeared into the night with his share of the fortuned they had amassed. Heart-broken and wounded Lysandra was able to escape the capital and the guards. Her alias was compromised, the name Olivia Reed forever slandered in the book of history and she would need to go into hiding while she came up with a new name. But at least she had a sack filled to the brim with money, who said hiding couldn’t be a luxurious endeavor…

Six months later Lysandra caught wind of the news. The only person that had ever truly accepted her and taken her in as his own was dead.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""bb-indent"">Lysandra has always dreamed of being part of high society and wealthy individuals, to live the luxurious life – what girl born of nothing doesn’t dream of that. However, the real Lysandra is something altogether different. She hides behind the sarcasm and fake smiles, her ambitions and fantasy dreams, she is the girl that never was able to escape that church. She is Noemi, the girl behind the woman. The girl that only wants to belong to a family, that wants to feel wanted. And she found that under Brand and the orphans. They are the only ones that have seen and know the real her and that’s why they all hold a dear place in her heart and she would fight and protect them with her life. Despite her ambitious nature for wealth, she has never forgotten what Brand taught her and she holds those values and teachings sacred.
Lysandra is whoever you want her to be at the time. She's moldable, adaptable. Skilled and deadly at times but also loving and understanding with those that she allows to be close enough with (a very small few).</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 27</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender: Male</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Species: Elf</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Quinn stands at a lanky five feet, seven inches with a toned, athletic build. He has black close cropped hair and brown almond shaped eyes, accompanied by a sharp jaw line ending in a pointed, hairless chin. For clothing, he has two outfits: a travel and casual setup. For travel, Quinn dons a dark green, hooded cloak over a charcoal surcoat (usually with hood pulled forward to cover the distinctive pointed ears) grey short sleeved shirt, and black slacks. The cloak has various slits cut into the fabric that allows his weapon harness to be strapped on. Casually, he wears a light blue tunic and black slacks. At all times the elf wears brown soft boots and leather fingerless gauntlets. When combat is assured, Quinn dons a metal breastplate or chainmail when available.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Brand of the Nightwood instilled in Quinn an innate will to live. This shows in the ranger's tactics and selection of clothing. The elf's style of close combat is at all times a combination of human adaptation and elven tradition: engaging the enemy with unflappable poise and surprising improvisation.  From Brand, Quinn learned the skills necessary to move quietly, track and hunt his quarry, as well as adjust to whatever situation he found himself in. He is an impressive shot, skill born from constant drilling under Brand's tutelage. Additionally, whenever Quinn found himself on the receiving end of a crowd, a quick tune on the panpipe usually appeases long enough for professional help to arrive. While not particularly experienced in magic, the young elf has received rudimentary training in the art. He can reliably perform some basic cantrips though it would be years before any real skill manifested.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Quinn's birth to elven parents was marred by their farm's destruction by marauders. In desperation, the dying father left his infant son as well as his family's weapon on the borders of Bosfyrd, in the hopes of a better life. Brand of the Nightwood took the child in and named him in the manner of men. Without that initial aid and care, Quinn would have surely perished due to exposure or worse still. What followed were years of training and growing within Bosfyrd's borders. Brand taught the young elf how to survive, how to defend himself from dangers, and finally how to appreciate what life had to offer. The elf grew to know, love, and rely on his adoptive father and fellow orphans, knowing only that his elven heritage had to be explained at some point. Throughout those years the orphan would ask about his heritage and parents, each time the question gently pushed aside by the woodsman until the age of fifteen. There, while constructing his composite bow, Brand revealed the circumstances of their meeting. 

Now armed with the knowledge of what happened Quinn understood why he was being trained. It wasn't for revenge; it was so that he wouldn't share the same fate. He spent the next five years completing his training under Brand and eventually became a hunter and protector of Bosfyrd in his own right. Son and adoptive father frequently went on rangings into the wild, most frequently returning with food but other times with an odd story or two. At the age of twenty-two, Quinn decided it was time to finally see the world find his people. So he took his gear and his leave of Brand and struck out on the road. Before leaving however the grizzled woodsman made one more revelation to his son. A small note, written by Quinn's mother, hidden from the young elf at the parent's letter's request, showed the location of their next of kin. The note went on, instructing Quinn to see and go to his relatives only when he was ready and grown.

Quinn spent five years on the road and with his biological aunt and uncle, Wen and Dirin. There in the elven village of Orayn he was able to reconcile his lost roots. He learned a variety of instruments, was taught the very basic first steps of weaving natural magic together into spells, further honed his hunting and combat skills, and eventually settled into the profession he was most suited for: ranger, protector, and woodsman. It was a second home, learning about the elven people, culture, and customs was a welcome respite from the nagging thought of being without a past. While there, news spread of the Baron's Revolt, though the war thankfully didn't.  Quinn remained close the village during this time, more than aware that war breeds an increase in bandit attacks. After the Revolt ended, word reached him detailing Brand's last defense. 

Out of duty and more importantly out of love for the man who raised him as his own, Quinn resigned his position as one of Orayn's rangers and made arrangements to return to Bosfyrd. Questions needed to be answered and the other orphans still at Brand's home needed watching over. As he left for home, the elf wondered inwardly if his brothers and sisters would also return.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Quinn's mindset is all about the path of least resistance. This shouldn't be taken as laziness, though. This elf is all about efficiency rather than aestheticism. Perhaps it was Brand's influence early on as Quinn has made it a personal value to always carry himself not just with poise and honor but also with professionalism that belies his trade. When faced with a new problem, he can deduce the correct action but also takes the time to determine alternate routes to victory. Overall, Quinn has a very pleasant and friendly personality, again against the grain of the grizzled ranger stereotype he has found himself grown into. Why appear aloof when you can let others offer their services and save yourself the trouble? These values he gained by learning from Brand and he emulates that giving nature every day. With that being said, by elf standards, Quinn is still a child though his demeanor and experiences might suggest otherwise.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Shortbow - To better hunt and survive in the wild, Quinn opted for a smaller ranged weapon. Its range and penetrative properties might not be a match for a longbow but its versatility and practicality compensate twice over. It's construction is composite, using yew wood laminated to animal bone.</li><li>Elven Curve Blade ""Reaver""- The very same weapon the infant Quinn had in his possession upon being delivered to Brand. To this day, the nimble archer regards it as a family heirloom. When pressed into close quarters Quinn makes use of the two handed weapon's reach, as well as the fluid motions and footwork required to wield it, to his advantage. As a result, the elf looks as if he's dancing, raining blows on the opponent from as many directions as possible.</li><li>Weapon Harness/Quiver, Belt and Pouches - A leather and metal contraption fashioned by Quinn with Brand's help. It is an all in one style setup that allows the archer to retrieve arrows from the quiver extending from his right shoulder and draw the Curve Blade from his left shoulder. A wide strap that crosses his chest from left shoulder to right hip contains various pouches that hold other items. Finally, a belt across Quinn's waist carries a small paring knife for cleaning kills and additional pouches for storage. Two buckles fastens the Harness together, one for keeping the weapon sheathes attached and one more for allowing the quiver to be detached separately.</li><li>Flint and Steel - Kept dry and safe in one of the Harness' pouches.</li><li>Hempen Rope - Fifty feet coiled tightly and stored with Quinn's blanket.</li><li>Whetstone - Kept dry and safe in one of the Harness' pouches.</li><li>Blanket - A thick wool variant for use during the winter usually rolled up and strapped to the Harness when Quinn is on the road.</li><li>Waterskin - Capped via a cork and held aloft using a leather strap over Quinn's right shoulder.</li><li>Panpipe - Wind instrument, carried in a pouch on Quinn's belt. Useful for passing the time or entertaining guests.</li></ul></div></div></div>"

<div class=""bb-indent"">The prime Guar'khan'i is a sight to behold. Borzgo towers at nearly 8ft tall when standing on his hind legs, and a little over 5ft when moving on all fours. His matted fur is colored in light oaky tones, frilled with dark ends that cover the entire musculature of his bulky frame. If skinned, a tapestry of healed wounds blanket his naked hide like an overused sword training dummy - some run deep enough to alter the growth patterns of his fur. The irk steel of his heavy armor does well to conceal such unsightly blemishes, and durable enough to prevent new ones. His armor's dark gun metal shine has etchings of master craftsmanship. The Sun spirit, Kumastafaro, is displayed through a series of intricate patterns finely smithed on every piece of armor.</div></div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tohi"" type=""button"">Tohi [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://www.malefic.jp/dsm/p/dsm7961.jpg""/>
<div class=""bb-indent"">At nearly five feet tall, Tohi considers himself to be the finest specimen of war tortoisans. Much like Borzgo, he is at the prime stage of his life span. The jagged carapaces overgrowing his backside, and the bone platings that protect his chest and joints keep him well guarded. As a defense mechanism, Tohi can curl inside his shell and extend some of its outer platings into spike-like protrusions What his natural plates of armor don't cover are swathed in a callous-like hide, functioning as a protective layer against the environments. He wears a light blue cleric's battle robe that comes with bronze metaled shoulder pads and knee guards. The azure gemstone fastened around his neck is supposedly a symbolic heirloom from the Truth Shield dynasty.</div></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Though both were natural survivalists in the wild, Brand of the Nightwood accelerated their instinctual gifts to hunt and track using their unique genetic traits as guar'khan'i (acute sense of smell and hearing) and tortoisan (patience and swimming/diving underwater). Brand was the one who put weapons in their hands, trained them to fight in close quarters and learn how to fight as one.</div>
<span class=""bb-u"">Borzgo:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Smithing:</span> Time and resources permitted, Borzgo's craftsmanship is that of a seasoned smith. Despite his large paws, the bearman can etch fine intricacies with a consistent touch. His specialty lies more in repair - especially armor.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Tradesman:</span> More self-proclaimed than referred to as, Borzgo's wares accommodate farmers, shopkeepers and soldiers alike. His inventory is kept stowed on board his traveling caravan. It is carefully monitored - especially from the likes of Tohi.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Springing Traps:</span> Where Tohi is known to make traps, Borzgo is well accustomed to springing them. This skill is often sought after in manbeastial communities that are constantly being hunted.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-u"">Tohi:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Fisherman:</span> One thing Borzgo will admit is that Tohi is indeed a master fisherman. The rarest of games are never out of his reach. Tohi prefers to spearfish, but he is also well-versed in netting, and poles with lures. A hefty bag of coin is almost always guaranteed when he sells his rarer efforts at the local market.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Trap setting:</span> Primarily for hunting animals that roam land, air or sea - there is no terrain that can get past Tohi's creative ways for trapping things. Tohi and Borzgo often brainstorm creative methods to innovate traps, especially non-lethal ones, but it is almost always the tortoisan's ideas that stick the most.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Gift of Gab</span>: Though tortoisan's are stereotyped as slow-witted, Tohi is anything but. While Borzgo is the tradesman, it goes without saying that Tohi is usually the one that negotiates the deals to perfection. While verbosity tickles his carapaces, he knows when to keep things simple - reading and understanding people is a favorite past time of his. Tohi also has a great story telling voice, and is always favored in taverns and caravan stops to share his most riveting tales.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Cook:</span> Specializes in seafood and herbivore-esque dishes. Is a spice maniac and has been known to drive away customers because of this.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">The path was originally set for Borzgo and Tohi to collide in brutal combat. Pitted as arena fighters for a ramshackled profiteer, they were trained, no, forced to be killers of sport and entertainment. The cage masters did their best to try and strip whatever dignity they could, but the two were too stubborn to let these humans revert them back to baser wildlings. In between travels and contests, the two separately educated themselves with the ever-changing world around them. 

Out of the traveling zoo, they were the only ones among the brutes and beasts that cared for discussion. Therefore, whenever their cages were paired next to each other, the two did best to converse as much as possible. They taught one another common tongue and their native language, and always tried to outdo each other with grand tales of their ancestors. In those precious few moments they forgot that they were imprisoned, forced to play a part in a  world that wanted to see them murder each other for amusement. 

One late winter night in Bosyfrd changed all of that. 

The two manbeasts were scheduled to duel in a bordertown in Vendland the following day. Ominous as the hour was, the two continued to talk as they normally did. Perhaps they came to terms with their fate, deciding to make best of what little time they had left. A cage master slammed his cudgel against Tohi's cage, cursing for their silence. Borzgo growled, grabbing the attention of the other cage masters. Their foul breath wreaked of honey wine, and their eyes demanded violence. Cudgels banged both of their cages, then quiet chaos erupted. Stifled groans of men choking on their own blood was dulled by the icy winds. Before they knew it their cages were unlocked. Borzgo and Tohi immediately broke free. The man that stood before them was none other than Brand of the Nightwood, the one they would owe everything to in the years to come. 

Borzgo and Tohi fled into the night with their liberator. Their upbringing wass no less different than the many orphans Brand raised. Never once did they feel manipulated, or coerced to adopt some cultish lifestyle. How cruel must a world be for a selfless man to be deemed an oddity for wanting to help someone other than himself? 

Cruel indeed, for its menace would strike even the most noblest of hearts. When word reached them of Brand's death, the two were grief-stricken for not being there in his time of need. In that moment, the world travelers traded in their jollies and unsheathed vengeful hearts, vowing justice for the only man they ever respected - the one they called their father. Brand of the Nightwood would be avenged, so swears the noble tongues of Borzgo and Tohi.

<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Borzgo and Tohi perceive the world as their play place. They are ruled only by their ambition, for kings and lords whom do not share their blood are mere statues of law and nothing more. Borzgo is insightful, mild-mannered and very easy going. He understands his identity, the power behind it, and does all he can to reassure everyone around him that he is not some feral beast. Tohi on the other hand could care less about any man's prejudices. He treads proudly along the enriched path toward success, coveting his friendship with Borzgo while living life without restraint. Though the two have a tendency of exercising their freedoms carelessly, their training, life experiences, and tactfulness keeps them from getting put behind bars, again. For the most part.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Human with a questionable ancestry.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Swarthy, aquiline featured and with dark, curling hair, Masef has always been possessed of a certain grace in form that took him from wiry and skinny as an adolescent into a flowing grace reminiscent of the elves. When he was a boy, he was pale of skin, but it grows darker with age. His eyes are similarly dark, but seem to be turning into a more amber color of late. In Vendish fashion, the land he grew up in, he goes clean shaven with hair tied back, and has turned the heads of more than a few in that country of light skinned people with his exotic look. His clothing reflects his most recent travels; a sand colored cloak with a deep hood that helps reflect sunlight back over a much-scuffed breastplate of lamellar scale. He now wears a bronze ring through his ear, signalling that he belongs to the Masad tribe of the Ibir.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Masef was trained by Brand of the Nightwood, one of his youngest, and so he learned the Vendish methods of using a longbow, though Sigur and Quinn are undoubtedly his superiors with those weapons -- and he took training from them as well, as they were older than he. He also was taught the lore of the ranger, at least in the Nightwood and surrounding terrains that enabled him, later on, to adapt to survival in the Tahzad desert and surrounding canyons and river valleys. He adapted. In combat, he favors ranged fighting, but if forced to close combat, he relies on a hatchet or a large knife, rather than a sword or something of that nature, preferring the practicality of a tool that can also be a weapon. He's also learned to touch the edges of a magical talent, though its development has come with a price. While it matters little in the rich green Vendish lands, he has become adept at finding water where it is hard to find such. His thirst for lore remains as ever, and he is versed in the knowledge of things. His favorite part of being a ranger was learning.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Masef wasn't even a toddler when his parents were killed in an ambush on their caravan upon the Pilgrim Road leading into Vendland, near enough the Nightwood that Brand found the survivors, including his dying mother and the baby she'd given her life to shield. She breathed his first name, nothing more, and expired. Brand, not being hard-hearted enough to leave a boy to fend brought him back to his other adopted children to take care of while he tracked the bandits to their lair and rooted them out root and stem.

As one of the youngest of the brood, Masef was also the one that would follow a sound into the wilderness, climb a tree just for the challenge and find his way into trouble in Bosfyrd with the village girls. Things seemed to whisper to him, even in the wild, though it might be a voice embedded in the wind or the way some rocks were aligned. He always found particular interests in some of the ancient ruins of the Nightwood, often spending time exploring them even though others had looted their treasures in long past days. As he grew older, there seemed to be the hint of powers and abilities neither he nor his adoptive father could fathom, and that was what led him away from Brand.

He bid a fond farewell with a promise to return and see him again, and then headed down the Pilgrim road that took the life of his parents. He followed the trail, using an amulet of his father's, all the way into the Tahzad desert, where he quickly acquired the language and learned the fundamentals of survival in the deserts and hills, plateaus and valleys, of that arid region, particularly around Daramalsh, the Great Whore. Working from that infamous city, he managed to glean a little about his father's ancestry; he was originally a member of the Masad clan of the Ibir tribes that set out as an adventurer and a merchant, afflicted with a wanderlust. When he located his father's clan, to their great surprise, and related his story to the. 

They held a great celebration and hosted him for a few years as he familiarized himself with his ancestral desert home and took work that kept him afloat; eschewing mercenary work, he preferred to scout and survey, work with treasure hunters and academics looking to explore the ruins in the region -- a passion inherited from his days in the Nightwood. Of his mother, they could say little -- they knew her not, or that Jalal had married.

One such expedition took him into the depths of the ancient city of Mari, into a crypt none had found before. There, bathed in a fey light, he found more answers to disturb him, such as an ancestor by the name of Qazar the Cruel, the Warlock King of Mari, and the reason the Ibir were nomads (after their city was destroyed, and Qazar with it) that had been waiting for centuries for a suitable vessel to pass by that he might possess and live again. For reasons unknown to him, though Qazar's spirit claims its because he's a 'half-breed', he was not fully possessed by Qazar, but instead wrestles with the intruding consciousness within his skull, vacillating between his hunger for knowledge (including magical power) and caution against Qazar's power-mad ambitions.

Then, one day, he felt an overwhelming compulsion to return to the Nightwood; no news reached him where he was, but he bid the Ibir adieu and set north to see his adoptive father and beloved mentor. He heard the news further up the Pilgrim road, and that only hastened his step; he bought and sold horses along the way so that he could fly up the road more rapidly, exhausting the modest income he'd built up. Some things were more important than money.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Masef seems like an easy going, rougish sort, but he lives by a strong code of ethics imparted by Brand -- he might have grown into selfishness left to his own devices, but has always been surrounded by family of one sort or another. His siblings under Brand's wing as well as the Masad. Sometimes, it translates into an 'us versus them' mentality with Masef, but he generally is a man that will not harm innocents and noncombatants, even if there is some profit to it. He was raised better than that. Some of Brand is in him in that he cannot help but lend a hand to someone in a plight.

Masef has learned that once he gives a promise, he is compelled to keep it -- that's how he wound up on the road North before the news even reached him that Brand died. As best as he can reckon it, he was compelled north the day Brand died. It's happened before, but never quite like that, and he still isn't sure what it means. In any case, he is learning to be wary of promises, though the promise to see Brand again apparently is now a promise to see Brand honored properly. 

Masef is naturally inclined to be a talker, an amiable companion and a man that enjoys good company and a story, but his ancestor, Qazar the Cruel, is different and sometimes that bleeds out -- he finds himself impatient when he would be more tolerant than before, and sometimes, when engaged in 'frivolity' starts tapping his fingers or toes in irritation. Inside his skull, there is a war on for control, and he's learned the hard way that taking the offered magic means letting more of Qazar in -- right now, he has a few minor spells at his command, and that already has Qazar doing more of the talking. Masef doesn't want to go there...except, well, he owes Brand much and he knows his siblings. There is no doubt he is riding into war, and with the knowledge and powers of a great and fell Warlock riding along with him. He understands, from Brand's strong imparted morals, that a ranger is a guardian, and his burden as a guardian is to ensure that Qazar the Cruel does not dominate again. The problem is, however, that Qazar is tempting.

Both Masef and Qazar are fans of knowledge and lore, it's one of the areas where they are in complete agreement, though Masef worries that the Warlock's spirit might try to use the gained knowledge to further the goal of usurping Masef.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>A longbow, carved from Vendish yew and maintained. Masef isn't the strongest archer, but he's damned precise. His arrows are a mix.</li><li>A hatchet, though wickedly curved and with a counter-weighted spike on the back of it that has many uses against armor.</li><li>A kindjal, long and nasty. Damascened steel.</li><li>His skinning knife.</li><li>A poinard, which is good for getting in between the cracks of armor.</li><li>Pouches, belts and sash overlaying it, all containing many different essentials of survival. Notably, waterskins, though he's less worried about them as the lands get greener. He also carries various spell components and things that seem of mystic significance.</li><li>His armor; lamellar acquired in the desert lands.</li><li>Cloak and clothing -- he has not gotten anything in more locally-appropriate coloring, though tan tends to blend well in a variety of environments.</li><li>Horses; a couple of them, he rides them in shift. These were acquired nearer to Bosfyrd than not, as he's bought and sold (at a loss) all the way up the road trying to make record time without killing the animals.</li><li>His father's amulet, as well as a bronze ring through the ear to symbolize his membership in his father's clan.</li></ul></div></div></div>"
18965,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-10 04:07:00,Dylan,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:Mozan of the Nightwood, formerly Zeldryn Zyrathian the 4th</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 24</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender: Male</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Species: Human</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Mozan is a tall, lean, and  handsome gentleman who stands at 6”2 and weighs one hundred and eighty three pounds. His hair is dirty blonde, but predominantly a light brown; though if one pays close enough attention, they will notice the underlying streaks of blonde complimenting the darker hue. Forementioned hair is usually kept short and utilitarian; short on the sides and back, and a bit longer on the top of his head leading down to short bangs framing the top of his forehead. He’s often clean shaven, and his eyes are a deep and rich emerald  with brighter shaded spots of green encircling his pupils. When he walks by, he carries himself with authority with a wisp of a grin on his face and a twinkle in his eye, as if he knows a secret but just won’t tell.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Considering the fact that he is a ranger and rogue by profession, he looks a bit wirey and skinny. However, he is in peak physical condition and is rippling with clearly defined muscle. A plethora of small knicks and scratches have left him with small marks along his forearms and legs, but he has a few scars which are clearly distinguished against his light-colored flesh. One is a two inch diagonal line resting along the right side of his upper abdomen; a result of being stabbed in a drunken brawl in a tavern. Another is in the shape of large claw marks running down the right side of his back; a wound earned while attempting to stalk a group of grey wolves unsuccessfully in his youth. The last is a bumpy and ugly looking circle on the outside of his left forearm, where he was struck by a crossbow bolt.</div>

[ <span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Under the close guidance of Brand of the Nightwood, Mozan learned how to blend in with his environment, track his prey, and push his body to it’s maximum. He is a skilled hunter and fisherman, and can use his knowledge and training as a ranger to locate and utilize different species of medicinal plantlife to assist in first-aid in the event of the unforeseen. He is a gifted swordsman, often times preferring the bastard sword or dual wielding shortswords, and he holds particular talent with the kukri and dagger as well. Mozan has always held a natural athletic ability, and was always one of the more agile of his family as Brand raised them. He spent day and night honing his reflexes and reaction time, and as a result of this, his body is as quick as his mind and he can make split-second decisions in order to find the perfect opportunity to strike. In regards to ranged combat, Mozan is competent with the longbow, though he often only uses it to hunt.  He holds particular talent with the light crossbow and hand crossbow, and will often find himself using these weapons when he is unable to close the gap.</div> 

[indent] Those who know Mozan know that he is never one to avoid conversation. He knows a plethora of history, stories of myth and legend, as well as a bit of scattered information about the nobility in most of the area surrounding the Nightwood. He is more diplomatic than not, and is an extremely skilled information gatherer; especially when his curiosity is motivating him to dig deeper. He is an experienced “dungeon-diver” and has an avid interest in treasure hunting, and as a result he is a particular habit of digging up old books which house valuable information on rare trinkets and the like.  Mozan’s most prized of skills, however, are those which he affectionately refers to as his, “tools of the trade”.  After training under Brand and Salazar, Mozan has perfected his ability to disguise himself, forge different styles of handwriting, assemble and dismantle traps, has extremely nimble fingers, can pick locks, tie intricate knots, and move extremely silently. His balance is superb, and he is as comfortable falling through the air as he is on the ground. His eyes and ears are sharp, and he is talented in regards to ambush tactics and avoiding detection.

 [indent] In summary, Mozan is a gifted swordsman, athletic and acrobatic, is skilled at tracking and stealth, breaking and entering, assembling and dismantling traps, gathering information and acts of diplomacy, as well as first-aid and survival as a result of his mixed training with miscellaneous veterans. He excels in single combat, but faces a challenge in groups. He isn’t much of a ranged combatant, but can surely hold his own if the situation calls for it. All in all, he is what one would expect of a rogue-ranger.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Twenty years ago, there once stood a town to the southeast of the Nightwood known as Silverstar. It was a small town with a population consisting mostly of dwarves and humans which was founded on the western bank of the river Thyst; a small body of water which empties into a lake after a day’s march to the southwest. Silverstar was initially settled as a result of the rich content of silver ore which was mined by the local clan of dwarves, and evolved from a small mining outpost into a sprawling village within a matter of weeks. Eventually, the silver ran dry and most of the dwarves packed their belongings and left, though some stayed behind and began to live a quiet life amongst the groups of humans which had begun to settle in Silverstar. The house Zyrathian was the preeminent family among the humans which chose to reside there, and Zeldryn Zyrathian the first went on to form a pact with the dwarves and organize a formal charter for Silverstar to be recognized as a part of Bosfyrd.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Silverstar was a quiet town. The nobility was well respected and ruled with dignity and an even hand, and the denizens of the village were happy. Two generations of the Zyrathian family were born and died peacefully within it’s borders.  This peace and tranquility came to a decisive and bloody conclusion five years after Zeldryn Zyrathian the fourth was born. His father, Zeldryn the third chose to take part in the revolt against Herald by mobilizing Silverstar’s militia and leading tactical guerilla strikes against Herald’s troops. Most of those strikes  were strategic victories which brought shame to Herald, and pride to the house Zyrathian. As a result, Herald eventually chose to march on the seat of Zeldryn’s power and burn it to the ground. The militia fought valiantly, but it was a hopeless effort. Before the final battle was fought, Zeldryn Zyrathian the third called upon his old friend Brand of the Nightwood for one last favor. Brand infiltrated the battlefield, retrieved the heir to house Zyrathian alongside it’s most prized possession, and quietly escaped into the Nightwood with Zeldryn the fourth in toe. Shortly after their escape, the Silverstar militia was surrounded, executed, and the peaceful little town was burned to the ground.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Zeldryn the fourth was by no means an ignorant child. Being the eldest child of house Zyrathian, he was being groomed for leadership from the very moment he could walk, talk, and be educated. The first five years of his life were spent playing with the other children, learning about his lineage, and being given a general, but extensive nobleman’s education. It was not much as a result of his age, but he was a bright child with a passion for the written word. On the evening of Silverstar’s demise, his mother introduced him to Brand, and instructed him to flee the keep alongside him. Brand was a kindly and gentle man whom comforted Zeldryn’s panic almost immediately, and the seasoned ranger protected him closely throughout their voyage. Zeldryn the fourth spent several weeks alongside Brand, and the man kept a close eye on him alongside his other children.  Eventually, word reached Brand of Silverstar’s demise, and in time, he broke the news to the young Zeldryn. The child took the news horribly, as any child would. But he eventually came to realize that his home was with Brand, as well as the other children. On the dawn of his sixth birthday, Brand of the Nightwood dubbed Zeldryn Zyrathian the fourth “Mozan of the Nightwood”and began to train him as a ranger.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Mozan always took his training very seriously. Brand was a skilled educator, but that is not to say he was easy on his children by any means. Mozan’s mornings were early and his training was intense; he worked with the sword day and night, and when the sword wasn’t in his hands the bow was. Brand taught him to track and to hunt and fish, as well as the subtle art of stealth. Mozan was exceptionally gifted in this regard; Brand liked to compare his speed and dexterity to Zeldryn the third, and this always drove Mozan even harder to succeed. . When he wasn’t sparring with his siblings, he was jumping from tree to tree and swinging around on branches, or balancing on a thin branch and attempting to walk to the very edge without breaking it. He developed a strong appreciation for the beauty of nature during this portion of his life, and became exceedingly curious about the world around him. By the time his sixteenth birthday had arrived, Brand gave him his final lesson in swordsmanship before presenting him with the crown jewel of house Zyrathian; the bejewelld bastard sword known as The  Vindicator. In awe of his new treasure, Mozan hastily began to admire the blade’s craftsmanship before Brand gave him a last piece of advice.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">“Do not besmirch the honor of which this sword will restore.” With that said, Mozan said his goodbyes and began his journey.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Over a period of two years, Mozan wandered throughout the countryside. He took jobs as a ranger to guide common folk through dangerous terrain, as well as escorting caravans and slaying unfriendly beasts for those who could not do so themselves. He met a plethora of good people, and gained a small reputation as a respectable and noble man among the villages he frequented. Eventually, he found himself guarding a caravan en route to the capital when he met a gruff, middle aged man by the name of Salazar Venterus. He was a grimey, unsavory looking fellow with whom Mozan constantly quarreled with from the very beginning of their journey. Through Mozan’s eyes, he was dishonorable, and fought with a coward’s tactics. Eventually, the man became so enraged that he challenged Mozan to a dual; which in his youthful ignorance was rapidly accepted. The caravan came to a halt, and the duo drew their steel with an eager crowd of merchants placing bets on who would come out victorious. Unfortunately, the odds were not in Mozan’s favor. The battle was quick and humiliating.  Before Mozan had time to mount a proper counter attack, Salazar had him cornered, disarmed, and seething with shame. He moved to draw another weapon, but the next thing that became rapidly apparent to the young ranger was that his vision was hazy, a throbbing pain reverberated through his skull, and Salazar was standing above him with an arrogant sneer plastered upon his grizzly visage.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Mozan was humiliated, but he apologized to the rogue Salazar for his brashness and rudeness after overcoming the worst of his shame. In return, the veteran warrior offered his abilities as a master to Mozan, and the duo began to travel together. In comparison to Brand of the Nightwood’s form of education, Salazar’s was a living hell. His days began before the sun lit the sky, and came to an end far after it had set below the horizon. They were filled with rigorous physical exercise to build speed, stamina, and perfect his balance, as well as brutal hand-to-hand combat training  and swordsmanship drills with blunted blades. When he wasn’t strengthening his body, he was molding his mind. Salazar assembled and destroyed a large variety of traps before his eager gaze, then tested him in their construction and identifying characteristics. They eventually moved on to training Mozan’s body into moving more silently and smoothely, as well as the finer arts of lockpicking, safecracking, and breaking and entering. After six months of harsh training and lengthy travel around the major metropolitan areas surrounding the Nightwood, Salazar had nothing left for Mozan to learn. Rather than part ways, Mozan began to work alongside his master, taking odd-jobs for those who had the coin to offer. Jobs ranged from stealing the signit ring of a particularly corrupt nobleman to stalking groups of bandits and mapping their travel for local law enforcement. They kept up this pattern over the next two and a half years, counting their coins and doing the best which they could for those without the power to do so themselves. Like most good times, this period in Mozan’s life came to a decisive and bloody conclusion without preamble.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Salazar eventually led Mozan to the high city of Apaxya; a sprawling metropolis located in the mountain range to the Northeast of The Nightwood. The high walls of the snowy city were filled to the brim with Herald’s men, and little did they realize, an intricate web of informants and rogues were planning the heist to end all heists. Mozan came to discover a guild of thieves within the walls of Apaxya, and their goal was to steal the lord’s journal and ledger; two documents which were sure to be filled with incriminating information which could fetch quite the ransom from the right buyer. The plan was immaculate, and after several weeks of surveillance and working informants for the right knowledge, the operation was ready to be implemented. Salazar and Mozan infiltrated the lord’s castle carefully and slowly in order to avoid arousing suspicion, but an unexpected variable rapidly made itself apparent. A raging blizzard began to batter the mountain city with it’s icy fists, and the duo was forced to enter the manor through a potentially unsafe passage. They took the risk, and paid the price. As soon as they entered, they were ambushed by the Lord’s personal militia; a highly skilled group of men and women with deadly skills and brutal efficiency. The rogues didn’t leave without a fight; they bloodied their noses and broke their knees, but in the end the operation was forced to be declared unsuccessful after they fled for their lives. Days later, the Thieves’ Guild was frantically trying to cover their tracks, only to discover that there was a mole among their ranks. Mozan entered one of their safehouses within the city a tenday after the failed heist; only to discover that the officers in which he was supposed to meet were ruthlessly slaughtered, and Salazar was standing over their corpses with a blade sheathed in crimson. He confessed to his apprentice that it was he who was feeding the militia information on the Guild’s efforts, and when confronted about the lack of honor in that decision, he simply responded to Mozan that they were the group which offered him the most coin. Enraged and filled with despair at the revelation and the loss of his comrades, Mozan drew Vindicator with a roar and engaged his master in pitch combat. Both men landed blow after blow, but in the end it was the student who became the master. The last thing the ranger can remember of Apaxya before his expedient departure was the way Salazar wore his grin, even in death.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">The next three years were mostly spent wandering amongst the lands, sampling different alcohols, exchanging stories with strangers, and tracking down different pieces of literature which Mozan wished to research. He  ventured from the mountains in the north down into the deserts of the south and everywhere in between. It was in this period of time when Mozan became extremely interested in hunting for treasure, and began to explore long-abandoned ruins in search of clues pointing him toward a new discovery. He never found anything that was extremely noteworthy; a few dated dwarven tools here, an antique chest or piece of furniture there, but he always enjoyed himself and expanded his knowledge from that which it was before his journey began. It was on a journey from the south toward the remains of Silverstar where the news of Brand’s death reached Mozan. He quickly abandoned all plans of exploring his home, and made haste back toward the Nightwood to discover what became of his step-father. Upon learning the cause of his death, Mozan swore that Herald’s reign of terror was to come to an end. By his own hands.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span></div>


(I had a bit of trouble with this part. Though I feel his personality can be interpreted from this, as well as the explanations I’ve given throughout the CS.) 

<div class=""bb-indent"">On first impression, Mozan appears as though he’s an arrogant and condescending man with no patience for foolishness. Though as one gets to know him better, it becomes readily apparent that it is simply difficult to tell when he is being serious in comparison to when he is being sarcastic. He has a strong appreciation for history and literature, and as a result he tends to speak with a more elevated vocabulary in a more lofty way. He is what one would wish to have in a travelling companion; he’s talkative, always has an interesting story to tell, and generally very jovial and friendly. He’s intelligent, rather modest, and usually playful with those he calls friend. As a result of his upbringing under Brand of the Nightwood, Mozan has always been a gentle and kind soul. He will not hesitate to help those who are in need, and his motivation and drive tend to inspire those who walk alongside him. That being said, Mozan has a darker side as well. His birthright, his home, his nobility.. All were ripped away from him without warning for what Mozan perceives as an unjust reason. His soul burns with the fire of the vengeance he wishes to inflict upon his enemies, and he will stop at nothing to accomplish his goals. No man, woman, or child can stop him, be them friend, foe, or family. He’s a thief, but he has honor; he only steals from those who will not miss what is taken, and can provide for themselves. Furthermore, he does not steal for selfish reasons, such as wealth or an edge over his competitors.</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">All in all, Mozan is a kind, philanthropic noble who holds his friends close to his heart, and will not hesitate to slaughter his enemies and achieve his goals.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 29</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender: Male</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Species: Dark Elf/ Drow</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Basically this, but Drow'd out"" type=""button"">Basically this, but Drow'd out [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/647c1d498512e3702128f6f6f56c30e4/tumblr_mvrae0cBas1rrrugio1_500.jpg""/></div></div>
Kazahk is an admirable Drow specimen, save for the fact his journeys are written on his body, and his character shows through his scars as well. Black markings linger on lithe limbs and exposed skin in intricate patterns, some intentional and others incriminating, crisscrossed with puckered scars that linger much like their memories. His dark gray skin provides a stark contrast for his bleached hair, so there is no mistaking his ancestry. He keeps his shoulder length hair tied into a knot behind his head with a bone or such to secure it, beads and braids dangling from the mess. His face is marred with habitual scruff and a noticeable nic of a scar on his upper lip, giving his stern and gaunt cheeks a sinister look. This is exaggerated by dark bags under his eyes that seem very furtive with light blue pupils, and the shiny silver incisor that lies in his grin. He sits comfortable above most Men, but Elvish company looks him in the eye. He is rather brawny for his kind, having taken up the weapons and tactics(not to mention habits) of the stout men of the north.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Surprisingly, the Drow indoctrination has stuck with Kazahk well into his later years, and therefore shrewd tactical and diplomatic skills come naturally to him, along with many written languages(a few which he speaks), lower maths, and basic proficiency with most martial weapons, and many ranged ones. His time in Nightwood taught him basic survivalism along with tracking and sneaking, though archery, herbalism, botany, and craftsmanship were lost upon the boy. His travels northward refined his kleptomania and taught him merchant ways of haggling and economics, which he took a keen interest in and considers himself more than proficient in those arts. Suffering though imprisonment and the land of the north has given him an unusual knack for endurance also, along with a favoring toward the more brawn based combat of axes spears and heavy armor. If there is one combat skill he excels at, it is unarmed, hand-to-hand combat due to the many instances in his life that have trained and forced him to rely on his bare hands. Martial arts come naturally to him; his brawn, stature, and endurance make him a vicious fighter if forced, and Brand's teachings of agility and swiftness magnify this. All together this dark elf is a tough survivor that can handle many situations.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Kazahk was born into a warrior caste of Drow that instilled strict and militaristic doctrine into their youth, and served a monarchy faithfully. His earliest memories are of martial training and mental exercises that were intended to mold him into a contributing dark elf. Success was rewarded handsomely, failure punished severely. It is here that Kazahk's nature was inflicted, and festered like a malicious wound. He struck out against his fellow students, unsubordinated his teachers, deceived his friends, and learned that there is more than one way to beat a system. After a nasty incident of kleptomania left him to be removed of the ownership of his hand, he decided to leave his only place in the world up to that point. At only seven he ran away into the surface world, descending the foothills of a mountain and into the plains of a land that was foreign to him. He wandered for days, weeks perhaps, using those principles instilled into him to eek out something that wasn't death but was not much of a life. 

When he came down a path and to a forest, he sought shelter. This was Nightwood, and as the Drow runaway would find out, Brand called this place home with his adopted family. Kazahk was desperate, but not rash. No, he could not be rash though the lesson the rod taught him. He discovered the home, the camps, the family of Brand and for a short time made due on discarded scraps, and even stole outright rarely. Brand nearly ran him through when he was finally discovered rummaging through a sack at a camp he thought abandoned. Brand saw the desperation and abuse in Kazahk however and brought him under his wing, showing him how to utilize his former doctrines to his advantage, and to adopt new ones to learn the wilds and forestry. 

Old habits die hard however, and Kazahk never did take all the old man's mannerisms to heart. It was just enough to keep him together, but never enough to make it work. His years with his new family were filled with good memories, but unhealthy envy would grow in the young drow's heart. While he made mischief in the neighboring villages, his younger siblings like Masef and Quinn took Brand's lessons far better then he did. He picked on that young elf, prying and using bully tactics that had been used on himself in the Drow underworld to try and find out what the High Elf knew, but alas, Quinn was just as much a orphan as Kazahk. As his stay neared it's end, the red haired sister of his wished to change her name, to which Kazahk offered a simple human pseudonym of Olivia. Being a drow, he valued what little anonymity he could find, but the girl refused, instead adopting Lysandra as her new name. She was one of the siblings that Kazahk's abrasiveness attitude did not seem to bother, perhaps for her young curiosity of his unique heritage. In his later years, he would often wonder how things would have been different between them if he had not been so set in his ways. 

Resentment steadily grew until he bickered with his fellows, rebelled against his adopted father, and sought freedom just like he had to begin with. He was one of the older orphans in the group at that time, and that status inflated his importance. He mistook Brand of the Nightwood's teaching and learning for the brainwashing of his Drow home. Soon careless words were said, filled with hate. A stepbrother rose up in defense(<span class=""bb-b"">NPC: Tagersson</span>), a fight ensued. Blood was shed, life was lost, and Kazahk fled at the age of seventeen. 

The last dozen years have been a blur to the dark elf. He has experienced pain and pleasure on the flood plains to the east, were the succulent Vogg river makes the soil dark and the people fat. Kazahk journeyed north to find out about Tagerdson, but only found the gallows and gulags of the icy plateau of Jirokain, where the northmen call home and the Jarl Vitek currently wishes him dead. The sickle of substance abuse found him and followed through his journey though the King’s land, the Baroness of Daggergrove and her purse funding many an evil deed. He heard rumors of a redheaded assassin at the time, but never did investigate, though he did inwardly wonder when the story mentioned a name of 'Olivia', and Lysandra quickly came to his mind. He nurtured friends and relationships when his pockets grew fat on caravans from the sands of Err as he took wares to trade, he was certain Masef would find his way into the sands and attempted to track him down, but quickly regressed when he thought about the contempt that his family members must harbor for him. He knew fear and despair has sickness took hold of him and those around him before he fled the coastal metropolis of Rostas Blut. 

He has grown hard and callous due to his travels, but yearns for those simple times he had at Nightwood. When Kazahk heard of the only farther he had known had died under cruel hands, he immediately sought for vengeance, but the soft words of the late man spoke to him, reminding him that first he must see to burial before a warpath was to begin. He wishes to make amends for the blood spilt and the ideals he did not honor for much of his life, and that is why he returns.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Kazahk is a very defiant and rebellious figure, stubborn and headstrong with a furtive glare and a stern demeanor. Many of those qualities are cultivated and preferred in men of rank, to be decisive and blunt, strong in character and voice, and to be eager and efficient in their decision making. These are all characteristics that he has, but greed, jealousy, pride, and hatred have seeped into his moral fiber to taint and cloud his judgment if the narcotics and women do not. He is one to hold a grudge, and to seek out and eye for an eye, if not more. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing right. His Drow sense of pride does not allow for laziness or half-hearted promises or works, and therefore he may not be an elf of high moral ground, he does not shy away from good deeds. There is a habitual bitterness that is prone to come to his demeanor, but his irate behavior stems directly to his environment and circumstance in life. For instance, he is a merry and generous fellow when coin and good health favor him, but shackled to an oar or on the run for murder you will find a cantankerous and deceiving individual. 

He does wish to better himself, knowing that all his negative aspects can be humbled and improved upon. He does not wish to permeate the toxic Drow upbringing he had, and refuses to allow to be stereotyped by his race. He knows there is good and an admirable way to live in this world, because for a short time he lived and experienced under the wing of Brand and his adopted kin. Deep under his habits and callous ways he strives to see that way be the ruling one in this world, and perhaps even follow that way himself. However, knowing he has failed many times to uphold this ideal makes him pessimistic. This denial fuels his journey back home, and perhaps turning a new leaf for Kazahk.</div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 26
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Species:</span> Human 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Physical Description:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Lean, wiry and compact, Varzhul isn’t an intimidating figure to look upon as most dismiss his lighter frame and shorter stature of 5’7 as portraying a lack of strength. Upon closer examination, the tell-tale signs of a conditioned body begin to appear through subtle hints of muscular definition and an absence of fat on his frame. His hair is close cropped and brown, resembling little more than a fuzzy covering for the top of his head along rough stubble encroaching over his face. A slender, hawklike nose sits perched above a pair of thin, strip-like lips and overseen by a pair of grey, seemingly lifeless eyes.

Varzhul’s body has been tempered and tarnished by a life of both violence and transience with a hint of weatherworn features and the creased outlines of scars on his body. While most are relatively minor nicks and cuts that did little more than blemish his skin, three scars stand out as indicators of significant trauma. One run diagonally across his chest, a jagged affair where an axe broke his guard, the second; a clean stab wound on the right of his lower back where a knife was plunged from a coward’s act and finally a large circular blot on his left quad where a javelin once found purchase.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skillset:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">As with any of the children raised by Brand, Varzhul is trained in woodcraft and survival; being more than adept at finding food, shelter and water along with being able use it as a refuge in times of strife. However he never embraced the use of ranged weapons, preferring the feel of a blade in his hand albeit he did relent to learning to hunt with the bow. His true specialty lay in his ambidexterity, agility and speed which he put into becoming a student of the blade. Under Brand’s tutelage and guidance, along with a strong dose of innovation, Varzhul created a fighting style with twin short swords to incorporate his strongest traits into one fighting style. Reminiscent of Elvish swordsmanship, he incorporated the grace and serenity of the elder race with the flowing movements of a duelist. It is a style developed both under and away from Brand; ever adapting and shifting, it draws inspiration from a myriad of sources encountered during his wanderings. The most notable inclusion to its roots was that of the use of a reverse grip, developed after Varzhul watched one of the warrior monks of Khartool fight off a bastard-sword wielding mercenary with naught but a dagger.

Varzhul is also an experienced horseman with skills developed from spending nearly a decade in the saddle both travelling and fighting from horseback.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">A boy born as the bastard child of a bandit and a captive woman, who was so malnourished she perished in birth; Varzhul , named Rork by his father, was born into a life of evil and hardship. His father cared little for his offspring; were it not for the spiteful whims of the bandit chieftain he would’ve been left to the wolves by his father. Beaten and derided by his father from when he could walk, there was little kindness to be found in the camp, even from the other captured who saw him as little more than the offspring of cruelty. This upbringing nurtured only hate and anger in the boy, who began to take after his own farther and the other bandits, terrorising captives and torturing animals. He seemed destined for a life of vagrancy and banditry until the fates intervened when a company of soldiers besieged the camp. In the ensuing battle and chaos, Varzhul managed to escape the burning camp into the foreboding darkness as a lonely six year old boy.  He was found fevered and famished, on the verge of slipping into death’s cold embrace when Brand found him as a grimy, malnourished boy collapsed in the woods. 

Despite the kindness shown by Brand and the other adopted children of Brann, hate and anger was all that had grown in his heart which tainted his actions in his first few years. He was a trouble maker and often disciplined by the older man, although the kindness of Brand’s heart eventually warmed his own; near the end of the time he could’ve been described as friendly. He was given the name Varzhul from the stitching left on the tattered clothes he’d been wearing at the time and embraced it over the tainted legacy of his birth name. Whilst being educated by Brand, he wasn’t particularly enamoured with learning to use a bow or other variation of a ranged weapon. Woodcraft and survivalism was tolerated but Varzhul left his committed and love for learning the use of a sword. He was one of the best of Brand’s pupils with a blade, albeit relatively unpopular due to his somewhat gruff and unfriendly demeanour.

By the time he came of age at 16, he was still aloof but much more psychologically balanced than when he first arrived at Brand’s cabin. He set out to make his mark with basic provisions, a light coin pouch and two blades at his side. He moved from job to job, never settling over the years but always learning and experiencing the world. He found employment as many of the wandering men of violence did in the world, as a bodyguard, mercenary and caravan guard. This kaleidoscopic range of employment lead him around most of the known world, seeing exotic sights and experiencing a variety of cultures. He moved on to form a mercenary group with some of his old comrades some four years ago, finding increased success from working on his own. The company went from strength to strength, until it took a contract to fight against a foreign tyrant. The majority of the company was wiped out when they were ambushed and massacred with the rest of the rebel force which had been plagued with spies and double agents. He barely escaped from the fight with his chest split open and a knife in his back and with almost everyone he knew left dead in a field of blood. 

Fleeing the tyrant’s wrath he moved from town to town, eventually seeking refuge with the warrior monks of Khartool. After a few months, a message arrived for him; its contents only pain and sorrow.</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile:</span>
<div class=""bb-indent"">Varzhul could only be described as cold and Machiavellian; never particularly friendly or close to the vast majority of people in the world, his interaction is usually business or as required. An introverted soul, he closely manages his emotions; oftentimes appearing cold and harsh to those around him but below the layers of emotional control, the scarred remains of his abusive childhood remain. He generally tries not to provoke violence in the world, preferring to keep to himself until the situation requires he return with violence. He does however, harbour a secret desire to leave some sort of legacy in the world despite his apathetic attitude to much of it. Finally he is unafraid of manipulating or using people to achieve his ambitions, seeing most people are little more than pawns in a large game.</div>

Adelaide is by far not a tall woman her standing height barely reaches 5'4, her frame borders between curvy and petite. Letting the natural radiance fill once eyes to behold soft pale skin an obvious result of lacking the suns brilliance, those that have the pleasure of formally meeting the woman can attested to the silk like touch but forgot the touch by peering into emerald eyes. Gleaming in light as if they were truly gems waiting to be plucked, displaying in them both beauty hinted with a dash of malevolence. All is not in beauty, upon her left cheek is the faint appearance of a scar. Hid with copious amounts of powder along with luscious puffed crimson lips, however as much as Adelaide might try its a trace reminder of a past well hidden from the world. Countering the physical deformity on her face with clothes in which revealing would be an understatement, scantily clad is more of the appropriate choice of wording, doing so to enhance her bosoms and overall appeal. Favoring clothing in the deeper colors of red, blue and purple to help accent the dark ash hair trailing down to the bending of the knee.

Garmin is a giant among men in every sense and possible description of the word. Towering over other men as if they were puppets at a staggering 7'10, abnormally tall though his height is the only thing impressive about the man. Inhibited by the naked eye reveals a sculpted figure devoid of hair, the muscle though are another sight entirely as in its brilliance is stacked as granite. Unbreakable and unrelenting, though scars also protrude from the giant among men. Garmin's entire upper torso is littered with marks of past battles. Devoid of any facial hair, both his scalp and rugged face are clean shaven daily. Many claim he is a soulless creature as protruding gray eyes send chills down the most stout of people, if they can raise their heads to meet him in a gaze. Formal in Garmin mind is simple leathers with overlapping chain mail as guarding the countess seems to be his only priority.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Skillset</span></span></span>
Adelaide while being a noble woman is without some skill in combat though widely detests in getting her own hands dirty. In her youth to the current circumstances remains a notable archer, unable to compare to that of the rangers but claims to be just as good if not better. It might be a blowing of smoke but nothing is taken lightly coming from this woman. This is of course if the time calls for it. If what they say about poison being a woman's weapon is true then, she considers herself a master in its use. Masking odors, delivery of the toxin and creation of possible new varieties. Seduction another one of her weapons, marketing herself to wills of men. Antagonizing, luring, coaxing them into her wants needs by simple kisses and promise of desires of the skin to thoughts of a more beastly carnal desires or simple wants of the coin.  Speaking of the coins it seems to flow from her, able to squeeze two coins hard enough to birth out a third. How she does it simple, Adelaide cannot suckle the coin threw her own whiles if that doesn't work Garmin is sent. Most prefer the former. In the darkest recesses of her soul lay the worst part, a torturer. By hot brands, the rack, slow imprisonment in an iron maiden or other the vast host of other tools at her disposal no secret is safe from her. She has some skill with weapons, enough to protect herself but relies on Garmin.

Garmmin is the apex warrior or as most would lay claim to. While taking a disliking to ranged weaponry, preferring to meet them up close and personal. Wielding a variety of melee weapons, but disdaining the use of pole-arms and spears but will use them if necessary. Favoring the combination of a bastard sword with a tower shield combination, having the strength to use the two handed blade with one hand giving him an increased reach of his swing. While unnatural and freakishly strong the extent of this titan's strength is undefined and hasn't put to a true test. Some claim he can pull apart a portcullis and have seen it, while others claim he can cleave a bear thick with fat in a single stroke. Again its rumors of the folk but regardless of Garmin's strength no one wants to be in the receiving end of any blow. For a man of stature he's surprisingly maneuverable. While not entirely a skill set but while clad in his heavy armor Garmin has the look of bloodied steel demon, one mention by Adelaide that a man to duel him once soiled himself before being cleaved in two.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">History</span></span></span>
Adelaide in her youth was the daughter of a minor retainer from across the northern seas, in fact the only child since her birth was the death of her mother. A notion her father wouldn't relent on that she killed the only love in his life, making sure to demean her about the incident without relent. Being feed dosages of a hate and false hopes, along with the occasional beatings to remind the girl she was only a means to an end to elevate his status. ""A near useless piece of meat"", as could be seen in Adelaide's memoirs in regards to her father. Silently suffering the maliciousness of her father, though would take to the bow at night. Filling the straw dummies heads with arrows, imagining that they were her fathers face, nothing was more satisfying than being able to see the man die. The vow made, she was going to kill him and when it would happen she prolong the pain to the point where inhumane would be child's play

Blossoming into a young woman, shining with regal beauty much as her mother did before her but something her father hated. Reminding him even more of his lost wife. In a sporadic fit of rage Adelaide was forced onto the great hall's table by the guards of her father while the man proceeded to cut her cheek. Down threw the flesh as it cut her nearly to the bone of her teeth and if she wasn't to been wedded soon he'd let the guards rape her to death. Making the latter part very obvious but he needed her unspoiled as he'd struck a deal with the son of a count, in exchange for wealth and more holdings he'd supply the man with a wife. The rest of night was nothing but pain and retching her stomach contents with vile thoughts of being sold like goat to a man used as his personal play thing. Though patience prevailed over action. After this wedding she'd exact vengeance for the years of sadistic hate and torture, but as of that moment she must play the dutiful daughter and charming wife to an upcoming counts son. 

Her eye couldn't of played tricks on her upon meeting her match, the young man was beyond gallant, the epitomy of male masculinity and sex appeal. The fact he was docile in his affections towards her didn't matter, he was perfect or so she had thought. One thing made her question the man though, is she saw the very look in her match's eyes that Adelaide knew that she had. It was trading evil for evil, being young and naive she accepted not knowing how much worse it was going to get or sickeningly better pending on your point of view. The scarring over cheek though was questioned, the count arranging the marriage demanded to know how in was inflected. A lie. Smiling to the man she simply side while on a ride her horse had spooked a rock slicing threw her cheek, thankful it had down that instead of her head hitting. Playing it for a false and had gotten away with rouse without getting to much suspicion drawn, also Managing to persuade the the father and son to hasten the marriage to the fortnight to get out of her own fathers grasps. 

All seemed well or at least on the outside as the people beloved the freshly married couple. The mans son couldn't rise to consummate the deed, wether it was him being too docile or couldn't get it rise because of her scaring. Adelaide wanted to believe it was the later. 

Though as a years passed it she still remained pure but her husbands father had passed under strange circumstances, the small folk knew it and Adelaide knew it also. She knew that her father in law was killed by poison though what type remained a mystery. The look in her husbands eye grew eerie and as he did so did his company along with screams from dungeons. Curiosity drove the woman as a familiar voice was heard in the screams. Trailing down looking at the backside of her husband and gargantuan of a man, when they turned to see her, Adelaide seen that her father was on the table. Anger coursed seeing her father being tortured and she wasn't the one doing it. Screaming trying to get to her bastard father. Being hold back with the giants one man, but her husband looking down at the table. Waving the titan and handing her the knife. Making good on her promise that she make her father suffer. The feeling and sensations she had gotten from the moment was... erotic as odd as it sounded and in that moment their marriage was actually cemented. Also in that night she was introduced the titan known as Garmin the Titan, Reaper of Men. 

Over the next several years under their rule the peasantry grew fearful to fall either under the counts knife, the countess cup or the titans blade. Testing the concoction of poisons and their antidotes, even testing the antidotes on herself at times. Garmin grew fond of Adelaide, why exactly known only between the two of them but the most widely spread rumor is that she remind him of a sister lost to death. Regardless of what it was, the two bonded more than what silver and gold could buy.

Buying silks in the market one fateful day she overheard the planning of a rebellion, in seeing her the mob drove to frenzy. Garmin cleaving three men in two as Adelaide would tell it giving them time to escape to the estate. Knowing that they'd be driven and killed from there home she had a handful of servants gather her belongings escaping threw an underground route. Escaping threw the exit seeing a mob storming her former home and quartering of her husband. All was gone, fleeing to the docks and across the sea to the lands held by King Harold.

Landing in on the Kings shore a month before this rebellion sparked, talking her way into the kings court as a guest. If it was Harold being a king or his chivalry seeing a noble loosing her holdings or whatever the circumstance it didn't matter she managed to maneuver her way to a state of relative safety within his walls. She did try to charm the king to no avail, though liking the woman for unique knowledge into poisons some of which he had never heard of.

Seeing the rebellion spark, in return for his hospitality Adelaide offered the services of her protector Garmin. Garmin a likes most of the people of the content hadn't seen. Serving in Harold's vanguard, though despite his defeats Garmin made the barons pay. Extinguishing several barons bloodlines root and stem. Spreading his terror in Harold's name and when the king had to make concessions was among the guards at the negotiations. Garmin's blade was one of the tools Harold used to spread his tyranny. According to the peasants he was among Brands executioners or at least foresaw the mans death.

Garmin's return marked a new rise for the countess, negotiating with Harold. As with Garmin being the kings right hand, Adelaide insisted that she be his left to cull the rest of the infidels in Brand's and William's circles. An intriguing offer from a devious woman, see a it as a double edge sword but one that would fall on her if something proved fatal. Allowing her and the titan to take William's estate and lands. Hiring a mercenary a company the Lost Sons from her homeland as protectors and new house guard. With their fearsome reputation in a land torn by war it would help deter any insolence. Putting the old guard of Williams to the torch for their part against Harold. 
   
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile</span></span></span>
Adelaide grew into utter cruelty early in life but wasn't feed until her late husband's initiation in to torture. A sadistic narcissistic woman who's sole purposes are few and feed into her own delight. While vain she isn't without a sense of loyalty to her protector, the only one person she had shown any sort of remorse or innocence to. Anything else is up to the whims of the moment. Having no problem sacrificing almost anyone as a means to an end. Seeing the world as her personal plaything and nothing more, enjoying the comforts that it has to the fullest effect as if it were to be her last. Religion play's no part in sort of standing in her life, believing if there are any gods that they're vicious cunts and have no worth in her life or prayers but does allow them under her dominion. Being cruel is one thing but does allow a sort of hope to those she intends to inflict dire pain. Survival is top priority, willing to do anything to keep going. Though if its hard to swallow she will make sure those to put her in despair to return the favor ten time over.

Garmin is a stoic man. One could render the flesh from his bones and not hear so much as moan of pain of suffering. Normally a quiet man despite is size, usually keeping his mind focused at the task at hand. Obedient as a loyal dog to no question, even if it were to put an entire village to the torch and kill its inhabitants. Its in combat that any visible emotion is split. Revealing in war and carnage. On occasion he goes into a blood lust that rivals a orc berserker, many claim its madness that have seen it but it makes Garmin more fearsome that just his armor and impressive size. Largely an insomniac but when he does sleep, everyone hears the pain and tortures from his past that he even hasn't spilt to Adelaide. When duty doesn't call, the drink does. While he is an alcoholic it takes entire barrels to get him drunk, drinking far more than what any normal man could safely drink.

18969,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-11 12:06:00,HeySeuss,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Bosfyrd was incongruously green and lush, and the leaves were a lovely shade of spring green on the trees, old oaks that shot up between the old houses with their thatched roof. It was a town whose meadows provided grazing for animals tended to by the herders and some fishing on the nearby Fool's Lake, so named for a long-ago battle that replaced the old name, which no one remembered. 

Every bit the opposite of the harsh and waterless Tazhad, it was equally home to Masef, though it hardly felt welcoming. He rode with his hood up and his weaponry concealed, and it was a good call -- his preliminary scouting, done in the early hours of pre-dawn on foot, revealed a small garrison in town, operating as if they were used to a pattern, so they'd been there for a time. Brand's skills came in handy; it was the rare local that could spot one of Brand's Brood, as they'd been called growing up, even when they were in training. With five years experience in the real world, dealing with Tazhad bandits and hiding in among the scrub, wadis and sand, he was that much harder to detect or trace. Whoever these men were, they were not up to the challenge of spotting a ranger moving in his element.

He quickly deduced that these men were not as well-armed as they might be, but enough of a threat to avoid as a single man on the road. They wore no insignia, which was different from what he remembered. In the past, there was no permanent garrison in Bosfyrd, but William of Barkstead had men at arms that were scrupulously disciplined and avoided abusing the villages, since they were themselves local boys taken into service. These seemed like mercenaries, but they probably wouldn't molest trade for absolutely no reason. 

So he'd packed his bow and armor onto his second horse along with other supplies and made himself to look like a peddler on the road; he was out of money for the most part, so the men that came to look over his arrival, sullen and armed, seemed to dismiss him once he slipped the last of his coin to them in a bribe that was substantial enough given the class of guard he was dealing with. Some of that was the hour -- after scouting the town, he'd decided to ride in several hours later so that it was still early enough for the first shift to be on duty and cranky about it, or so he hoped. It was also the time of day when everyone was starting to bring their animals out and move around, when the day was starting for the average peasant here. Masef remembered the rhythm well.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Mind yourself, stranger,""</span> was music to his ears -- he'd succeeded in seeming harmless. The rebellion against Bloody Harold was an internal thing and Masef was clearly a foreigner, subject to less scrutiny. Dark of hair, eye and olive-skinned, he was no native and that worked to his advantage here. They were checking the locals with far more suspicion, figuring that foreigners had no loyalty to the rebellion or fond memories of the late William of Barkstead...and they apparently knew little of Brand's brood of adopted children.

Hearing and seeing were two different things; locals that recognized him were close-mouthed out of respect, and the nods were subtle under the indolent and occasional glances of the guards who were not Barkstead's men. But he assumed the slouching posture of a weary traveler all the way to the Scuffed Boots, a tavern that catered to the traveler and the local alike. 

The interior was still maintained, but not all the old faces were there; apparently old Dunstan was gone as others were, but Masef didn't know the actual story. But what he did know was that the others would be along.  In a more peaceful time, the tavern made sense as a place to meet without fear. Now, it was the best place to meet only because they all knew it was a good place to gather, but it had its dangers. The voice in his head, not his own, whispered of the potential dangers, as any old intriguer might, and even warned against the cider, given by one of the serving girls that recognized one of Brand's, without bothering about payment, that Masef sipped as it could have been poisoned, but he was used to banishing the voice, even as it tried to warn of betrayal from the locals. 

Qazar didn't know the folk here, Masef did. Brand of the Nightwood was one of their most able defenders. They were holding out against hope that his brood might make their return. A flash of a smile here, a nod there, but carefully blank faces when outsiders were looking. 

Still, it wouldn't do to linger. The village was not his element, but it was a place to meet his siblings and learn of where Brand's remains abided. They would pay respects, and woe betide the bastard that stood in their way.</div>"
18970,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-12 02:10:00,Hexaflexagon,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">Village don’t change much, you can come back to them time in and time out and you’ll end up seeing the same sights. The farmhouse you spent the years flirting with the village girls would still stand, the old road leading into village would still lead to the same town, the same town with the same stalls and the same buildings as you remembered from before. The squat thatched houses buildings that looked cold and unwelcome from outside but inside you know a hearth sat filling the dwelling with warmth. And yet these places are not untouched by the hands of time.

The farmhouse you once knew was dilapidated, the founding unkempt and the walls threatening to fall down and was no longer filled with the laughter of mischievous youths , the road leading to a village that was once filled with happy faces and travelers was empty as if it had been forgotten about. Though these did not bother one much, the progression of time was something that people become accustomed to and buildings fall down but can eventually be rebuilt. It was the people that made the change, people are the lifeblood of any village and if they are changed, the village changes in response. People are what makes the home, and creates the roots that bind us. And so Bosfyrd was a changed place, some had lost their lives in the War and the rest left under the oppression of Harold’s men. Smiling faces turned suspicious and downtrodden, reminiscent of those of an animal dying of blood loss knowing soon it would die. Drained, that was a way to describe all those that lived under Harold’s rule drained like stuck pigs through taxation and oppression as long as his coffers were filled he cared not for his peasantry.</span>

Sigur walked into the village and drew a few eyes as he did. Due to his general racial features to hide as a common merchant or traveler was not an option and so he had to as Brand had taught him <span class=""bb-i"">pick a role you can play</span>. Sigur had chosen the rule of a hunter a common  occurrence appearing and vanishing in the Nightwood making their living killing the beasts that lived within, and so in places like Bosfyrd seeing these men traveling across the road was a common enough occurrence. What drew the eyes was the prize he carried over one shoulder, the severed head of a large Dire Wolf. A Dire Wolf’s fur was coarser and rougher than that of their normal cousins and so was less valuable on the market. The Teeth was what fetched a larger price used primarily to make tools or jewelry the canines fetched a large price for any hunter that was skilled enough to take one of the massive beasts down. This backed with the bow on his back and his current attire definitely made him look the part.

The spectacle was intended as Sigur was the type that preferred to blend in through sheer audacity rather than subtle intrigue. Harold’s men asked him simple question of who he was, a traveling hunter, what he was doing here, finding a craftsmen to take the head that was encumbering him and if he had seen anything suspicious, nothing of the sort. Then automatically assumed he was no trouble, he was a stranger for surely they would of been warned of a man like himself, their observers would have seen him and travelers and strangers were not the ones that they needed to worry about with sedition. Though it was duly noted that they should let him go through without asking him for a charitable donation for he did not look the type that would be intimidated by a few armed men. And there was truly no need for them to anger such a man as for him to cause unneeded problems.

Sigur wandered the main road playing his part as the stranger looking for a shop that he could sell his trophy to. He directed himself down the path to Old Finn’s place, and was mentally relieved when he found the grizzled grey haired veteran still manning his shop. His tanner’s shop smelled the same as it did as a boy of oil, fire, leather and strong ale in equal amounts and it was first thing that truly made him feel like home. The two talked snippets of information passed along as idle banter as they bartered over the price of the teeth. What he was able to piece together from the hints that he was given pretty much confirmed what he had seen as he entered the village. Harold’s men were occupying the village to put any one foolish enough to follow in the Duke’s footsteps and well most of the regulars still were around, they had lost some to the War. After finally reaching upon a reasonable price, money and head were exchanged, Finn giving the half-orc a small knowing smile as Sigur made his goodbyes and grumbled about the prices. 

Following his role as the disgruntled hunter angered at scrooge old men he decided his next  move was to go to the Tavern to drown down his anger and find a hot meal. In reality it was to see who was around. Brand had once said that for the lonely soul one only needed to go to a tavern to find those that would indulged in your loneliness together. In short if you were looking for old friends always go to the  place where they were selling the alcohol. The Scuffed Boots was no exception, in the days of his youth everyone could be found within its walls from the physician, to the farmers, the blacksmith, the girls and the boys trying to woo them. It was a place that brought to mind only good memories of singing, dancing and general amusement. Dunstan was easy on the tap and generous with his food, the Scuffed Boots was a home to anyone that entered it be a stranger or regular. He made a show of it first going to one of the garrison and asking him where he could find a stiff drink, though at first annoyed it seemed he would take anything to not to stare down the same patch of road forever and pointed him towards the tavern.

When he entered the Scuffed Boots the familiar clatter of clay cups meeting wet lips and chewing mouths was heard. Though most of the farmers would be bringing their lifelines out to pasture some of the merchants and others would go to the tavern first, having been working either through the early morning already or just wanting to get in a hot meal first. He walked over feet dragging faking the best amounts of fatigue he could, a feat he knew well knowing what it felt to have worked all down bringing the harvests in. He came to a stop at the bar where he ordered a Fireale, the stuff was a specialty in these parts spiced with herbs found  growing on the edge of the Nightwood and payed with his money earned from his kill. As he sipped from the flagon he moved his eyes around casualty around the tavern and took note of those around, familiar faces stood out to him and the subtle eye contact that was made knew told Sigur that they remembered him as well. 

His eyes finally stopped upon a figure, a traveler by the looks of it sitting alone. The man’s skin was almost as dark as the ale he was drinking. Sigur knew who he was almost immediately, once he knew face it was hard for him to forget it, especially one of his own siblings. And so Sigur stood up with ale and made his way to to where Masef was seated, he calmly took a seat next across from him and spoke. <span class=""bb-b"">“Merchant, is the Pilgrimage Path traveling well?”</span> These words were important for it was common vernacular, words known simply by travelers to tell they mean no harm and that they just wanted information. Using such a traditional method put out the idea to any potential eavesdroppers that they were just meeting for the first time. As he did no expression change was visible in Sigur face, no sense of joy, no sense of excitement, the best his sibling would get was a knowing wink as he sat down that lasted for less than a second.</div></div>"
18971,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-14 12:58:00,ibyaah,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-i"">""Quinn, I'm not sure if this will reach you in time, but you must come home to Bosfyrd. A squad of soldiers just arrived in town. They bore no sigil nor brandished any orders or advertisement for work. Yet they are well armed and carry themselves with a purpose. I fear that they may be here for reasons related to the Revolt. Worse still, they ask about your father to all the merchants that stop by the town and every shop they visit. I sold them a hogpiss yarn about the old man visiting Orayn to trade pelts for rare elf-grown fruits but I'd eat my bandanna if they believed me. I know you took your leave of Brand years ago but perhaps it would be time for a visit, aye?""</span>

With a barely audible sigh, the elf carefully refolded the letter and stowed it away in one of his belt's spare pouches. The news of his adoptive father's death had come almost on the heels of that first; postage between villages was still slow and primitive next to word of mouth and loose tongued travelers. Meena's letter was hastily scrawled; her normally impeccable writing jagged and oddly pressured but still noticeably hers. The raven haired merchant was a regular sight in Bosfyrd as well as one of Quinn's oldest friends. They were close, maybe closer than just friends, and the elf trusted her word equally next to his siblings' and almost as much as his father's. If she had any qualms about these newcomers, it was most definitely something to check in on. A bump in the dirt road jerked the ranger forward from his seat in the back of the wagon. 

""Sorry about that one. Damn roots sticking out of the ground always tripping up my wheels."" Came the low growl from the front. Hammet, the merchant wagon driver Quinn secured transportation with, was a stocky grey whiskered fellow who, in his own opinion, was the finest purveyor of fine wines and craft brews. However he also had the temperament to match his product's strength. Through some lucky happenstance, Quinn was able to persuade the squat human to give him a lift to Bosfyrd in exchange for hunting down dinner/protection on the road. Still, the merchant's usually terse demeanor interrupted by occasional bouts of cursing and growling, led the elf to wonder if this merchant ever actually managed to sell anything. <span class=""bb-i"">I guess it doesn't matter how crotchety the seller is as long as the stuff is top shelf...</span>

""Oh it's no problem at all,"" Quinn cheerfully replied, rubbing his slightly whiplash strained neck, ""we should be getting close to the village now."" The two men exchanged looks as the dual horse drawn covered wagon rounded the last bend in the road before Bosfyrd's outlying homes. The elf reached behind the wagon's bench style front seats, checking to see that his dark green ranger cloak, weapon harness, quiver, bow and sword were all still bundled safe and sound. In their place, he wore a noticeably elf made crimson traveling cloak and brown tunic. If Brand indeed was the target of the soldiers now inside the town, as well as the scrutiny that being a target came with, it was best to appear a complete third party to the situation. The ranger had even gone through the trouble of buying a couple small casks of mid tier elven brandy to better pass on the idea of being a liquor peddler. As the pair neared the town proper, the precaution for a disguise was proven well founded. 

""Sorry, boys,"" Hammet rumbled as a pair of guards came forward to inspect their shipment and papers. ""I'd love to sell ya lads some brews but it seems you're on duty."" Quinn's quick eyes didn't miss the looks exchanged and it took a measurable amount of control to not smirk. The elf recalled a conversation he had with the merchant a couple days prior. As merchants go, you have two options for getting through security without hassle: coin or other goods. If you can afford the hit (and as a merchant, not entirely likely) go for the coin. On the other hand if you have something security wants, give them some of what you're selling, trumped up of course. ""But it is difficult to sell this higher end stuff, aged beautifully in maple barrels, but no one seems to want it..."" ever the salesman, Hammet held aloft a decent but altogether <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> higher end bottle of liquor. With a shrewd look from under a pair of bushy brows, the human shrugged and offered the bottle to the guards. ""Eh...sod it - take it of my hands!"" 

Without further harassment, the two travelers moved on, their former interrogators passing the bottle between themselves. ""It's all about two things, lad."" Hammet later said once out of earshot. ""That you can polish a piece of horse dung and that the poor sod that buys it can't tell two and two before you leave."" That was probably the first time Quinn ever saw the old man crack a grin, much less the toothy smile he was sporting that second. As the wagon came to a stop before the Scuffed Boots, Hammet clasped the elf on the shoulder. ""Thanks again for all the help on the road, kid, and..."" he added the last in a whisper, ""...sorry about Brand. He was a good man."" Quinn nodded, smiled, and stepped down from the wagon to busy himself with helping Hammet unload the kegs and crates that was the Boots' standard liquor order. 

Once finished and inside the homely tavern, Quinn took his leave from Hammet and took a seat at the bar with his bundle of ranger gear leaned against his stool. He sipped twice from the pint of dark stout set before him and took a minute to look around the half full living room. Even with the decidedly traditional elven garb, some of the townsfolk recognized him but were cognizant enough to not make a scene. The archer caught sight of his true target though. With an air of confidence and an arm cradling one of the unopened casks, Quinn first approached a handful of other tables offering his ware, even pouring out a shot or three, and finally coming to a stop at his two seated siblings. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Gentlemen, you both look equal parts well traveled and richly experienced.""</span> He laid the small wooden cask on the table between his adoptive brothers and sat himself down in an empty chair. <span class=""bb-b"">""Perhaps this will interest you, the finest elven brandy from beyond the Nightwood.""</span></div>"
18972,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-17 05:29:00,Vistruction,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Like the abrupt transition of winter to spring, Bosfyrd had transformed from a once peaceful town to just another cautionary tail of what awaited the last remaining free cities not yet under Harold’s thumb. Streets once filled with laughter, excited stories and hushed rumors accompanied with friendly smiles, were now almost void of life. The townsfolk, nowadays, seemed to keep to themselves as much as they could. They couldn’t be blamed though, no one knew who could be listening and with pockets of guards patrolling the streets no one wanted to chance the risk.

Lysandra spied the street below from her little room on the second floor of the Scuffed Boots. It didn’t offered the best of views with dust and grime encrusted into the window from years of being unwashed, but nevertheless it was the best she had while being cooped up in the tavern. Two days prior, Brand’s adoptive daughter had reached Bosfyrd and with the help of Dunstan’s oldest daughter and good friend of hers, Emma, was able to acquire sanctuary. Her original plan had been to sneak into Brand’s estate and confirm the news of his demise herself, but she hadn’t counted on the estate being under heavily scrutinizing surveillance. Not being able to enter the estate but also not giving up on trying to find answers of what had become of her father, Lysandra had no choice but to fall back and think of a new plan. There weren’t many folks she could trust in the town and those that did recognized her offered little more than what she already knew. Luck would just have it that she did ran into Meena in the market place the day before and was told that word had been sent some time ago to her brother, Quinn.

With the news, Lysandra didn’t have a shadow of a doubt that not only Quinn, but also other members of Brand’s lot would be in-tow back to town – all she needed to do was wait patiently and remain inconspicuous while in Bosfyrd, something she was all to well at.

From her window she watched as a wagon slowly came to halt in front of the tavern and its two occupants set about unloading some of the kegs of mead and other substances to replenish the Scuffed Boots wares. She couldn’t quite make out whom the two men were or if she even recognized them but it didn’t matter much, she needed to finish getting dressed for her role as a simple and unsuspecting tavern wench. With one final look outside, Lysandra turned her attention to her bed where a few choice knives were laid out along with her rope darts. She would conceal the knives on her person and the rope darts, attached to her wrists, would be hidden under her sleeves of her simple brown dress. The rest of her equipment was tucked away inside the straw of the bed for safekeeping. These days one could never be too careful.Because of her red hair, Lysandra needed to wear a wimple around her head to keep unwanted eyes away and be less distinguishable from all the other females in town. 

The old stairs just outside her door creaked and moaned in protest announcing the sound of approching company, shortly after there was a soft knock on her door. Making sure the last of her hair was neatly concealed; Lysandra proceeded to answer the door. Emma quickly slipped into the room before the door had even been open wide enough, a small smile stretching her thin lips. “What is it?” Lysandra whispered glancing out the hallway and down the stairs to make sure no one had followed the female before closing the door.

“Masef…he is here. I recognized him almost immediately.” She breathed excitedly.

Lysandra took a moment to consider the implications; the youngest of Brand’s brood was here. “Are you certain?”

“Yes.” She whispered back, “I handed him a drink myself. Go downstairs and see if you do not believe me.”

If Masef was here that meant that others must be close by also. She hadn’t seen her youngest brother in a few years, not since he had left the estate. Matter of fact, she hadn’t seen any of her siblings since they all parted their own ways. Despite not being the youngest, Lysandra had been the last one to leave Brand’s side some three years ago on her way to make a life in the capitol and had the bitter sweet pleasure of wishing the others good fortune on their trips and endeavors. Emma was right though, she did need to go downstairs and confirm it was truly her sibling. “Count to twenty after I’ve left before returning downstairs.” Lysandra instructed her friend before slipping out of the room and making her way to the tavern floor. The room was only half full as she took note of everyone’s faces and made her way to the bar proper. She didn’t spot Masef right away but instead caught sight of another of her siblings, Sigur. It was hard to miss the distinct pigment of his skin and coarse appearance as he walked over to a table nestled in the back corner housing the one and only Masef, himself. She was delighted to see not one but two of her siblings had made it back to Bosfyrd and they both seemed in very good health. The smallest hint of a smile tickled the corners of her lips, hardly noticeable to any stray eyes that might have been looking her way at the time. She wanted nothing more than to run over and embrace her brothers in a warm and tight embrace, but that would not only be impractical but could but their very lives at risk. For now it was just enough to know that they were alive and more importantly they were here, even if the reason for their reunion was the death of the one man that had brought them all together. Hiding her smile from prying eyes, Lysandra quietly disappeared into the back kitchen.</div>"

I'd wondered where all the bandits had gone. Then I was robbed right here in town.""</span> But then he'd saw Bosfyrd's new garrison -- it seemed like the gallows bait found itself a new occupation besides waylaying the roads -- with Harold's seal, they were now practicing tax collection rather than banditry, and yet the skills apparently translated over. And it wouldn't do for a merchant to not grouse about how he was skinned on the way in.

His face showed the dark stubble of a man that hadn't done much shaving as he charged up the road in relays on horseback. He'd left the weaponry and armor on his horse, figuring, perhaps, that the guards might be too interested in a man that was well armed with well-worn equipment and looked comfortable in it. In fact, he'd thickened his accent on the way in -- he spoke the Vendish tongue with a native accent, but here he used the liquid vowels of Daramalsh, the Great Whore as the city was known, to thicken the speech to near indecipherability. 

So long as the locals that knew him played along, and they had so far, he was alright. But it seemed that Bosfyrd had learned a thing or two about deception and minding their own business and not being, by the by, overly friendly. Even in the Scuffed Boots, there was the impression of people's joy muted.

Quinn's entrance was a little more flamboyant, but it drew a flash of a grin off Masef. It was momentary, because of the pall over the place and because the topic was serious.

<span class=""bb-b"">""But yes, the Pilgrim Road was quite thirsty, and I fear the road to come will be even more thirsty.</span>

That thought didn't finish, because the door to the tavern slammed open and six of the men guarding the town swaggered in, loudly demanding their ale and that all the, <span class=""bb-b"">""lot of you scum can clear out now. We're having a party.""</span> The already were well in the cups it seemed, and by the way they were leering at some of the girls, it looked grim indeed.

Masef didn't look to his brothers, he just took a swig of the rest of his drink to drain it even as his hand inched down to where he had his knife. He knew the drill.</div>"

The garrison at Bosfryd seemed to be nothing more than a collection of scoundrels meant to suppress the populace. Even so give a scoundrel the blessing of a king, and they act like lords themselves. It sickened Sigur, men of the watch were supposed to be defenders of the peace, keepers of the land, a fact that Barkstead's men understand well, and a concept that was as alien to Harold's thugs as washing themselves.

Sigur was slightly shocked of how much Masef had aged since he had last seen the boy sitting across from him. When Sigur had left Brand's care the boy was just eight winters young, a young pup by most standards. A curious young child that always got into trouble, and always seemed to find a way to have his punishments diverted to his older siblings. For a young one he was sly as a fox. Though at times Sigur wanted to crush the boy, he had warmed up to him eventually. He wondered if he had still kept up with his longbow training after Sigur had left. Though it had seemed that the young child he once knew had certainly matured into a strapping young lad. In a way this made the aging half-orc feel equal parts nostalgic and very old himself. How he longed for those simpler years back before everything seemed to become distorted, and confused in his heart. The two talked very little as they sat at the table both nursing their own drinks, but the little words they did have carried sparks and flecks of information on them.

Quinn always did have the flare for the theatrical when they were younger and his entrance showed that this side of him had not dampened with age. When the ""honest merchant"" came to their table offering his brandy, something deep inside of the half-orc chuckled even as he held a straight face. Sigur decided to play along with the show and with a quick exchange of coins for a glass of fine brandy, the hunter offered a chair to the merchant, and it all seemed normal. In a very quick span three brothers had become united together under one roof once again. It felt good to Sigur, it felt right.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""But yes, the Pilgrim Road was quite thirsty, and I fear the road to come will be even more thirsty.""</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Indeed. The air was unnaturally calm this morning of my hunt. A storm must be coming.""</span> The half-orc added in agreement to his younger brother, though it may of seemed like just talk of the weather to any of those not listening carefully. Moments later the ""guardsmen"" entered the building. Sigur kept casual as they barked their demands, and he seemed to just continue to enjoy his drink. In reality he was scoping out the room they were in as it evolved into a battlefield in his mind. He watched the faces of the worried girls and other patrons, making notes of their positions just in case they did not have the good sense to run. He finished his analysis just as the last drop left his cup, and he made little show of standing up and placing the cup upon the table.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Excuse me gentlemen, I must go pay my tab and be off. I would not want to anger our guests""</span> Without any other words he left his brothers at the table and walked back over to the bar. He placed himself strategically between the guards and the serving girl with the nervous look in her eyes. He shuffled around in his pocket for coins, as he did his eyes flickered up to the girl's and a moment of recognition was passed. He was not going to let the beasts have their way. His other hand slowly descend towards the hilt of his blade and he waited. It would be just like old times it seemed.</div>"

Clip, Clop. Clip, Clop.</span>

The relentless drumming of his horse’s hooves pervaded his head, interrupting his thought and bouncing around his skull. He was an impressive beast, almost 16 hands in height with a heavily built frame, covered in rippling, muscular cords against the jet black hair of the creature; its mane fluttered through the breeze as the head of the human ducked and rose as it traversed the leagues. The hood of his cloaked was tugged and tussled by the wind as his horse carved its way through the landscape. Varzhul was riding hard for the sleep village of Bosfryd, his boiling, white hot anger barely held in check as his mind tried to re-establish the emotional controls that he once relied upon.  The best father figure he’d had in life had been brutally cut down by the tyrant king Harold’s men and now he rode to bring justice and vengeance to those responsible. He was sure that other members of Brand’s Brood, as they had been affectionately titled by the villagers of Bosfryd would be travelling to the village too; between them they’d more than likely be able to create a decent plan to avenge their father. 

The death of Brand had brought him back to reminiscing about the days of living in his camp, the lessons and the training; equal parts harsh and kind, they’d forged once despondent orphans into young men and women who had the world at their feet. He marvelled at the lush, abundant landscape that flourished alongside the cobbled road; it was an incredible contrast to the monastery of Khartool from where he’d ridden. While a hospitable enough temple, it lay in a blasted and unforgiving landscape, where the weak were trained to become the strong and where the nature of evil itself could be fought. Varzhul couldn’t help but allow a smirk to spread across his face, grinning like a fool while the warm rays of the sun beamed down upon him, filling him with its warmth and enlighten his positivity. The calls and cries of lazy birds and beast alike cut through the air, projected from the undergrowth and forests surrounding him; it truly was a blessed land. Yet the paradisian landscape around him shrouded the darkness which had permeated these lands, not in the form of ancient evil or creatures of the night but by the actions of an empowered tyrant.  

It was not far from where he passed now that Brand had found him as a dishevelled, disheartened and diabolical youth; covered in the blood of beasts and sickly with a plague of the mind and soul. The kindness which had once lifted him from the pits of despair had been extinguished by this tyrant, this King Harold, who had never been threatened by the action of Brand. All reports he’d heard was that Brand had kept neutral in the times of war, preferring the company of the forest and his orphans to that of the field of battle and the armies of the land. Yet it had mattered little in the end as his father had been hunted and killed, at no small loss to King Harold’s men if the reports were to be believed. That was not all the losses that this ungodly king would suffer either.

The end to a curve in the pleasant track revealed the dark centre of corruption that now pervaded through the land; bandits turned king’s soldier who encamped themselves on towns, villages, roads and bridges alike, enforcing taxes and tolls to pass through these thoroughfares. It was a company of four men, not livened in any discernible insignia along with the bearing of those used to stealing and killing the commonfolk of the land; they were bandits turned tax collectors, not that they had been much difference between the occupants of those roles beforehand. The quartet stood to arms when they saw his massive black charger round the corner, slowed down to a gentle walk to both rest the beast and to project an air of peace and pointlessness to the men. They were almost licking their lips with anticipation at the potential wealth of the man riding towards them; horses such as this were few and far between, usually carrying a hefty place at any market around the world. They were the steeds of lords and kings, yet the ride was no noble, he was alone and dishevelled from travel on the road, surely an easy target. Varzhul left his two short swords hidden under the sleeping roll on the back of the horse; there was no need to alert the men to his actual specialty but instead rest his hand on the pommel of the longsword strapped the front right quarter of his horse. Whilst unsuitable to be used in tandem with another blade, it was far more suited to be used on horseback, giving him reach enough to rain blows on mounted or dismounted enemies alike.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Ho there”</span> he called out to the four men gathered together, who looked amongst each other with a smirk as if to say <span class=""bb-i"">who is the fool who calls out to four armed men on a highway</span>. <span class=""bb-b"">“Be you men of the king?”</span> he added as he removed his hood revealing a well-travelled face along with his best attempt at holding a friendly appearance. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Aye we are”</span> came the leering reply from what he supposed was their leader, a swarthy, unkempt man with a pockmarked face and as Varzhul discovered as he drew closer, in possession of a foul odour of unwashed man and the stench of stale food. <span class=""bb-b"">“This road ‘ere belongs to the king, we’ve been put here to protect it against bandits and thugs”</span> he informed Varzhul with an alarmingly toothless grin. <span class=""bb-b"">“There’s a toll on this road though, to pay for the protection of this road”</span> he added as the grin on his face grew ever larger, revealing a decaying mouth and a breath that managed to overwhelm even the body odour of the man. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Certainly my good fellow”</span> Varzhul called back to the four men, towering over them as he remained mounted, utilising the size and bulk of his horse to usurp the power in the conversation. <span class=""bb-b"">“What will the toll be? I’d willingly support the eradication of ruffians and highwayman alike!”</span> he answered with a mockingly cheerful tone in his voice. <span class=""bb-b"">“In fact were I not on my journey of homage, I’d pledge my sword and arm to help slay such men were they to exist in the land! I’ve been paid to slay bandits in most of the known world you see, they’re a plague upon the land. Here I’d do it for free, for the good of the King and his people of course.”</span> His voice had taken a colder tone as his hand strayed to the hilt of his longsword to emphasise his point to the man.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Well, uh …. normally the toll would be greater, seeing as such a fine beast would attract all sorts of wrong folk. But, uh, given your generous offer”</span> the swarthy man paused as visible beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and his neck began to stiffen from craning it to look up at the man who suddenly carried himself with an air of danger. <span class=""bb-b"">“I’ll leave the toll at five coins as long as you tell us your business here.”</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">“Why thank you my good man, I’ll pass word of how friendly and safe this road is for travellers along to all I meet!”</span> his voice adopted the cheery tone again, beaming inwardly at the cowardice of the man. <span class=""bb-b"">“I’m passing along this road to Bosfyrd to rest and replenish my provisions before I set off to a nearby battlefield, I’ve come to pay homage to my father. He was a king’s man you see, died fighting the bandits of the area. A good man, such as yourself really.”</span> All the while he told the story, he rummaged around his coin pouch and produced five coins before dipping his hand back in and producing another two, proclaiming <span class=""bb-b"">“here’s your toll and a little bonus, buy yourselves and your good men a drink when you reach the town. Drink to the king’s health, my good man”</span>. The men looked bemused at each other and nodded to each other eventually, as he simply cantered past the men waving joyfully as he set off towards to ever nearer town, drawing his hood back over his head. 

When he arrived in the town he drew an array of looks from townsfolk and mercenary alike, he was not a common sight to be seen in the town and many avoided the path of the his charger, assuming it to belonging to a nobleman or man of power. He reached the centre of town with minimal fuss as he drew his hood back to survey the depressing state of Bosfyrd as the persecuted villagers hurried around and generally looked downtrodden by their unwelcome garrison. A few of the villagers recognised him with sly smiles which were quickly hidden now that his face had been bared to the world. One of them, an old farmer by the name of Marn pointed towards the local tavern, a nice enough place if his memory served his days of sneaking out of Brand’s camp to the tavern. His eyes narrowed when he saw six of the thugs occupying the town stride into the tavern, their body language suggesting nothing good would come from their tavern visit. He dismounted his giant of a horse, landing with a rare grace on the muddy ground before he tied the beast up alongside the tavern. He removed his travelling cloak and strapped on one his short swords to his wait, making sure to keep the other well hidden on his horse. 

As he entered the tavern he immediately saw a scene that would easily turn violent, he recognised what could easily be an aged Sigur, Quinn and possibly even the flame-haired Lysandra along with a darker-skinned man who didn’t fit the town. He kept his right hand near the pommel of the blade strapped onto his right hip, that was where any foe would naturally assume the first attack to come from of course. He passes a knowing gaze to the other members of Brand’s Brood as he waited out the situation.</div>"
18976,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-27 04:16:00,Deja,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The graveyard of Bosfyrd was a small affair, set on a hill over looking Fool’s Lake, and a short ride from the village itself. You could see the faint glow of torches of night fisherman from the roofs if the fog permitted and the sun and moon both lay low; at least that was Kazahk’s memory of the place. The small path that lead out to this place was predominantly for mourners or those of bait and lure, and the simple headstones sat in their own world away from the occasional flooding of the lake and graverobbers. The people of Bosfyrd were not well off enough to face that threat Kazahk presumed. Still, he had come here nightly the past three days to pay his respects to the late Tagerdson, under the cover of darkness, and the cloak of a fishermen. He came bearing flowers and a heavy heart which tugged at his paranoia as he overlooked the lake, his hair stood up from a chill brought on by the water and the history he shared with this place. For all the tears he had shed for the lad under his feet now, it mattered little now that Brand had been murdered. Fists clenched, knuckles popped and turned white on his grey kin as he thought of revenge. But also of his failure to the man, who had raised him with nothing but the best intentions. How must he have felt, seeing a child under hios care to protect, cut down by another that he had failed to tutor? Kazahk did not like dwelling on that subject for it brought a guilty bile to the back of his throat. He was not the man Brand was, and that was evident even now. But he could make thing’s right perhaps, if gypses were true. Then again they had been wrong about heading north for salvation. The tattooed gulag marks on his wrists and ankles proved that much.

He made his way back into the village before dawn broke, has he had been since his clandestine arrival stuffed away in a carriage. His sanctuary during the daylight hours where prying eyes might recognize the infamous drow was the upstairs of a local shopkeep Kazahk had come to know since his escape from the Jarl five years ago. The man was actually a fence that harked and bought his products from the travels of the road with little to no question on their origin. Kazahk came to know him from a similar and larger distributor to the east who mentioned the little town of Bosfyrd. Since then through correspondence and a bit of coin, the fence served as the drow’s eyes and ears for the place, and now safe haven. The fence was no local, but his knack for gossip told him enough to connect the dots that the strange dark elf that paid him was the same one that drew ire in retelling of old stories for the villagers. Good coin was good coin however, and he let it be, having only been asked to sneak Kazahk in and shelter him discreetly for a short time.

<span class=""bb-i"">tak tak tak thump</span>

Three rapid knocks and a thump roused Kazahk from a lethargic nightmare with a slashing of a dagger he’d pulled from his person. It only took a second for him to decipher the intrusion however; the fence had news. 

Light blue eyes peeked through the crack in the door that opened slightly. <span class=""bb-b"">“Yes?”</span>

The fence seemed flustered, mostly likely from the pace he had put himself through running up from the street up to the attic. 
<span class=""bb-b"">“They’re here. An elf, an orcish fellow and a dark-skinned lad, though I can’t be sure about the <span class=""bb-i"">other</span> rumors. You can’t be certain going only on hair color, even if it is supposedly red ya know. Regardless, the three in question are at the tavern right this moment.”</span>

A silver coin tumbled out of the doorway and the fence cursed as hit his chest and tumbled down the first two steps. The door closed with a thump before anything else could be said. Kazahk was out on the street, face in plain view striding defiantly towards the tavern before the fence could talk him out of it. His fur lined cloak flapped behind him defiantly as he dug his heels into the earth and villagers did small double takes to register what they had seen. The older locals scowled and widened their eyes, for there had only been one male drow around these parts with a reputation, and it wasn’t a particularly good one. The fact that Kazahk was now coming into his own physically as a young Drow did nothing to calm onlookers, though he did have the mind to leave his steed and his war making regalia back at the fences. 



A short sword in a scabbard and a hatchet tucked into the small of his back were all he lay armed with, and he could hear them tinker as he strode. A rather large horse came up to the tarvern in the distance, and a rider Kazahk couldn’t make out dismounted. A few worried customers seemed to be stumbling out of the few entrances as well. Ever the pessimist, Kazahk thought of the worst as he picked up his stride and made his way to the door behind the man with the warhorse. The sight and smell of six drunk guards men, a tavern quickly trying to empty itself, and a hesitant, immediately recognizable few who were very tense, greeted the dark elf’s glare. He could spot Sigur from the lot atwixt a barmaid and the drunkards, his orcish brawn was something he had no desire to quarrel with given the family history. Quinn’s elvish features gave him away to be the young lad Kazahk used to bully and compete with as youths. The name almost escaped him, but dashing looks aside, the dark skin of Masef was the clue that set in his head. But he was most enraptured with the red hair, he could hardly figure out her name that he almost forgot about the man who entered before him and his identity. Quick mental arithmetic didn’t leave much for the family tree, and his twelve year absence didn’t assist his recollection any, but the man fit the bill for Varzhul from his perspective. 

<span class=""bb-i"">ka-thunk, ka-thunk, ka-thunk</span>

Kazahk’s heavy boots echoed as he furtively walked into the tavern. He kept his face uncovered, and gave all his relatives a solid, tight-lipped look before looking back at the guards, who themselves were started to wonder about all the backbone that had suddenly sprung from a drinking establishment. One such curious guard turned around to catch Kazahk’s entrance. 

He spun about at the waist, before thumping with a fat protruding index finger of the chest of Kazahk, who looked down at him with as much malice as he could muster. <span class=""bb-b"">“Tavern’s <span class=""bb-i"">closed</span> sootskin. Remove yourself!”</span>

Kazahk gave one more look to his adopted kin, seeing their strategic positions and hands near their weapons, before giving the slightest of nods. Then, he brought his forehead clean through the cartilage of the guards nose, grabbed him by his instigating arm, and hurled him into his nearest comrade, causing them to both go down in a sprawl heap of curses and contempt. As he spun from his toss, the cloak dropped his feet and he grabbed the nearest abandoned ale to take a swig.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Welcome Home!”</span> was all he could say, and he meant it.</div>"

From his stepbrothers, Masef, Sigur, and Varzuhl to the intoxicated guards, the hunter's quick eyes took it all in. Six guards to the apparent four of Brand's wards. <span class=""bb-i"">Actually five...I think...</span> The elf thought with a frown, eyes accustomed to tracking game may have seen the crimson locks of his younger stepsister, Lysandra, before their owner ducked away into the inn's kitchen. The odds weren't bad, quite good for them actually once you factored in the liquor. He had seen Sigur completely overwhelm twice that many by himself. Varzuhl was a genius with two blades in hand. Masef had a style all his own, combining the strengths of two homelands. Finally, if she was actually there and not imaginary, Lysandra would've secured them victory with her complete mastery of those strange roped weapons of hers...

However there was the issue of secrecy, ending any confrontation with it intact, as well as maintaining the safety of the others in the inn. Also adding the fact that Brand's elven stepson was currently unarmed didn't exactly help either. To better keep up with his disguise, the elf had left all his weapons in the bundle now definitely out of reach at the bar. <span class=""bb-i"">Definitely a tactical error...</span> Quinn chided himself, his palms closing around the end of the cask set down before him. 

The analysis ended in a flash however. The latest patron to visit the Scuffed Boots was one that the elf thought he'd never see again. Kazahk stepped into the inn with a purpose, straight from memory. Quinn remembered the issues they had as children growing up, probably one of the few consistently rough experiences he'd gone through. That all ended when Kazahk and Brand almost came to blows, heated words were said, and another stepbrother ended up in the ground. The two elves had not seen each other since. However if there was a positive outcome to all that, it was that he could better appreciate the good times and the siblings who were still alive and well. 

With a knowing look, Kazahk showed that he still had his hand to hand skills, skills the Drow would frequently use to best Quinn on many sparring matches. <span class=""bb-i"">Well at least some things don't change.</span> In the confusion of the throw as well as Kazahk's bold reaction, the tavern's living room devolved into utter chaos. <span class=""bb-b"">""Gut that sootskin!!""</span> were the rallying cries of the two guards sprawled on the floor. At once, one of the four guards still standing advanced with his blade half drawn towards the dark elf's left shoulder. A half full wooden cask of quality elven brandy to the head kept that particular guard from closing the distance. Wooden splinters, wasted alcohol, and the guard himself toppled to the ground in an unceremonious heap. 

Without waiting for a reprisal from the others, Quinn flitted to the front of the bar, looking to put himself between the rest of the guards and as many patrons as possible. Along the way, the elf archer glanced at his siblings, hoping that they were on their way. Once he reached the bar, Quinn caught Kazahk's gaze for a split second before swiping the elven curve blade from its sheath. The elven fighter kept his stance towards the guards mostly but also kept his sight on the Drow. <span class=""bb-i"">Whatever his plan is, it's probably not good...</span></div>"

He had a skinning knife on him, but it wasn't the ideal weapon to use against men in armor in a standup fight.

<span class=""bb-i"">Burn!</span> the voice in his head screamed, but Masef ignored it, knowing that it was the old warlock, trying to find ways to gain a greater foothold on his soul. He could feel the power drawing in, flexing itself, ready to be released, but screamed back at his own mind, <span class=""bb-i"">No!</span> 

Masef looked like a crazed man for a moment, that alien expression crossing his face before Qazar, a tyrant of legendary cruelty, was locked back in his prison.

It was bad enough that the old bastard already had one bony finger dipped in his soul, staining like blood in pristine waters. Old Qazar didn't know it all, but Brand had given Masef the skills he was using right now; his larger brothers were already taking up the attention of the guards with their larger presences. He moved along the outskirts of the fight, making sure to keep the guards in front of Sigur and Kazahk. 

When one of the guards pulled a blade, about to go after Kazahk, he swung into action; a fireplace poker was the handiest weapon he had, but it was good enough for what it had to do; it might not penetrate good chainmail very well, but it did wonders when swung at the back of a man's knee; that one screamed and dropped his weapon in agony. Masef, however, didn't hesitate. Instead, he pistoned a booted foot down on the man's head. Perhaps Daramalsh made him harder -- the old Masef wasn't quite so quick to put a man down, but this was a life or death fight with steel bared.

The guard got off lucky, and Masef took the fellow's sword from nerveless fingers.</div>"

Perhaps, the first one in months. Ever since leaving the bustling Capital and retreating into hiding, the female had kept herself a recluse. During her time in the city she had allowed greed, vices, and temptation to cloud her judgement and to lose sight of her father's teaching. Such lapse had cost her dearly not only physically but emotionally also, having allowed Dorian to burrowed himself deeper into her heart than she should have.

But with her siblings only a few feet away, the world seemed a little brighter once again. Their presence, however, was only a momentary relief as the cause for their clandestine encounter slithered its way back into the forefront of her mind- an ever present reminder of Brand's absence from this family reunion.
With a simple idea to at the very least make her presence known, Lysandra set about the kitchen preparing bowls of potato stew to bring to her siblings. In accordance with her disguise as a tavern maid, no one would suspect her true relationship with the simple traveler and common hunter. Swift hands quickly had two bowls filled and sitting on a tray as she made her way back out into the main floor. 

A group of guards stumbled into the bar with words slurred, knees wobbling and causing quite a ruckus out of the otherwise peaceful establishment. The young female released a flustered sigh at the sight of them. This was the last thing that they needed, especially when secrecy was the name of the game. They didn't, yet, know exactly what they were dealing with or the full extent of the situation pertaining to Brand. And as such it behooved them to keep a low profile and a tavern fight was quite the opposite of maintaining one. One glance towards her siblings and immediately she knew the situation at hand was about to escalate.

Masef was still sitting at the table and to anyone else he might have still seemed relaxed and unbothered by the rowdy guards, but she knew better than to believe that. Her eyes catching the slightest movement of his hand towards the pommel of his weapon. Most notably, though, wasn't  Masef but the elf that was sitting next to him. She quickly recognized him as her older sibling Quinn - there only been two elves within Brand's brood. He must have arrived sometime after she had gone into the kitchen, but nevertheless she was grateful for his presence, they would need him if the situation got out of hand. Lysandra spotted Sigur over at the bar with Emma and with the tray in hand, she too made her way over.

Strategically speaking, it made sense. Masef and Quinn on one side and Sigur and her on the other - it almost felt like they were back in the old days. Placing her tray of stew bowls on the bar top, Lysandra locked eyes with Sigur for the briefest of moments, but a second was all that the two needed. She turned to Emma bidding her to stay back in case things got ugly.

The last of the Scuffed Boots' clientele were clearing out of the tavern with haste, when another of her siblings entered the establishment. Varzhul, was one of the members of the Brood she hadn't expect to see. But the family reunion just seemed to get better and better as right on Varzhul's heels, Kazahk sauntered into the bar. His dark colored skin and stark white hair were featured that caught anyones' eye as soon as he waltz into a room, raising eyebrows or dropping jaws. The sight of a Dark Elf was a rare one and many times accompanied by ill blood given their harrowing nature. But to Lysandra the sight of the drow only made her frown in disdain, her memories of her older brother tainted by his actions that only seemed to draw a scornful glare from her.

Kazahk had a knack to instigate a already delicate situation, and with no surprise to Lysandra, he was the first to throw a figurative punch- or rather a forehead. In a matter of a moment the bar erupted into a full scale brawl. Quinn propelled a cask into a guard and Masef, like a cat on the hunt, struck another from the back of the fight. On Sigur and Lysandra's side, the closest guard had a sword raised at the drow.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Sigur!""</span> With a flick of her wrist and a twirl of her arm, Lysandra let loose one of her roped blades wrapping it around the guards raised arm. With all her might she yanked back on the rope, spinning the man about and throwing him off-balanced practically serving him in a silver platter to her brother.</div>"

That was until he heard the door behind him open and spied the presence of a drow appear from behind him, the chances of it being anymore other than his tainted step brother being as minimal as the situation now remaining peaceful. He wasn’t driven by fear or some sense of cowardice in trying to avoid conflict but rather in an attempt to keep a relatively low profile until they’d had a chance to discuss things as a group. The heavy echoes of the drow’s boot broke the terse silence of the room and his following action completely annihilated the tension.

When the scarred drow, always bearing a propensity to violence akin to bloodlust, took offence to the demands of one of the guards it was only going to end one way. The slightest nod was a late warning as the drow proceeded to smash his head through the face of one of the guards, a move that Varzhul highly doubted could draw origins from Brand’s teachings, the room exploded into action. As he began striding forwards at quite a pace, Quinn took the innovative mood of launching a cask of brandy, a move that would’ve caused amusement in Varzhul were he not restraining his emotions as if they were wild, ravenous beasts. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Lub-dub</span>

Varzhul felt his heartbeat begin to slow in time with his long, deep breaths as his cold, lifeless eyes flickered across to Masef’s interior struggle which he would be sure to inquire about afterwards. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Lub-dub</span>

The final set of steps took him towards a guard who’d turned to meet his trajectory, sword already raised even as his companions were falling around him. The guard, feeling confident with blade in hand swung across at the unprotected left side of Varzhul, attempting to exploit the fact that his short sword hadn’t yet cleared the sheath. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Lub-dub</span>

In almost slow motion, Varzhul completed the trap as his left hand, hunting knife clenched in a vice-like grip, moved with an almost inhuman grace in rhythm with a slight spin of the body rival even the best of dancers. There was an audible <span class=""bb-i"">ting</span> as the two blades met in mid motion, the thug only having time to widen his eyes at the realisation that he’d been tricked and that he had become prey. Varzhul’s momentum continued his current trajectory, leaving the back of the man’s knee crucially unprotected.

<span class=""bb-i"">Lub-dub</span>

A boot lashed out, the man crumpled with a pained growl until his head was cracked by the pommel of Varzhul’s short sword, easily incapacitating the man. It’d been simple, elegant and painless, for Varzhul, yet carried out with a brutal efficiency to match that of any wild animal. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Lub-dub</span>

Releasing his breath with a barely audible sigh, he brought he brought his two blade up, one about twice the size of the other, his right clenched in a traditional grip, his left holding the knife in a reverse grip with the blade running parallel to his arm. His eyes revealed that the landscape of the tavern had changed somewhat; three of the men were down with a fourth stumbling towards Sigur courtesy of Lysandra. Her actions affirmed his suspicions about her identity, the presence of a trained fighter ill fit that of a barmaid, let alone the use of roped daggers, a weapon unique to only one person that he knew. He emotionlessly faced the remaining two, warily watching their move as a predator watches their prey, ready to swoop on a second’s notice.</div>"

Their was familiarity in the chaos and it felt like home to Sigur. The battlefield was the home of vagabonds, sellswords, and mercenaries alike. Something deep inside of him struggled though, the part of him that had put his life following the way of the blade behind. He knew what coming back to Bosfyrd meant though, it meant more than just paying his respects. Five years it seemed was not enough for him to distance himself from it all. His hand clenched his blade as he took a breath. Everything leading up to this point going through his head, every choice and every action. He knew what a life of violence brought, and he had a taste of what a life of peace could be like. But looking into the eyes of the nervous girl behind the bar he knew. All of this occurring in the span of seconds as he came to a decision. The Green Mountain would live once more. He drew his sword from the scabbard as he turned to face the guards.

Sigur was an impressive and fearsome sight to witness in the moment of battle. His hulking frame matched only by the sword he held in his hand. Forged in the flames of the Southern Cities, it was a fearsome sight to behold. It was to be frank, a rather large instrument of death. For most men to use it effectively they would have to hold it aloft with two hands and be resorted to using only clumsy overhand swings and sweeps that threatened to throw them off balance. Sigur was able to wield it effectively with one hand and with precise pinpoint strikes. The very sight of him usually did a number to the moral of his opponents. Their minds having no choice but to conjure up old tales of orcish berserkers ripping through entire regiments. The guards looked perplexed and took one step back unsure of what to do sword raised. Moments later a rope dart slammed into his arms and he was yanked across the floor.

<span class=""bb-i"">Lysandra</span>, he thought he had seen a flick of red hair somewhere in the back corner of the Scuffed Boots. He moved forward to meet the guard with a statuesque intensity of a seasoned warrior. He swung his blade hard putting all his force behind the swing. The guard stood little chance as the blade hit with a well precised sundering blow at a lighter connecting plate of the guard's mail. The guard's flesh beneath provided little in terms of slowing the bleed as it cleaved through muscle and sinew. Blood sputtered across Sigur's face as the blade came free through the other side. Sigur did not spare a glance backwards, he didn't need vision to tell the men was most certainty dead. Eyes glanced at the blade coated with crimson

Sigur moved forward towards the remaining two guards that Kazahk had sent to the ground. They were getting up slowly as the rest of his siblings slowly surrounded them. Sigur made mental note of the status of the other guards, they already had a few still breathing for questioning. Anymore survivors would just complicate matters. Taking the initiative he walked forward and unceremoniously buried his blade downward into the chest of one of them. During this execution of sorts his eyes met with Kazahk's and sent out a simple stern message. <span class=""bb-i"">We will talk later.</span> As he withdrew his blade the other man scrambled backwards getting up to his feet only to end up being cornered between a wall and the half-orc. ""<span class=""bb-b"">What are you all!?</span>"" the guard croaked out as Sigur approached.

<span class=""bb-b"">""The Nightwood sends its regards.""</span> Those words spoken with chilling calmness were all the guard got as his life met its end against cold steel. Sigur turned to face his siblings and a small smile appeared on his face. Looking at the tavern and the carnage that had ensued he could only laugh at the absurdity of it all. Of all of them meeting one another once again in such a situation. So that was what he did, he began to laugh, a deep and warm laugh that filled the room as he sheathed his blade.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Well, that was interesting.""</span></div>"
18982,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-28 21:18:00,HeySeuss,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">""It will get more interesting quickly enough.""</span> Masef noted coolly, a guard's sword in hand. They'd taken down the guards too quickly for him to put it in blood and a quick glance showed burrs and nicks in the weapon from shoddy care. It wasn't that impressive of a weapon to begin with, but the care it was shown made it of little use or interest to Masef.

<span class=""bb-b"">""But this one yet breathes. It's possible we might find some more information, such as where these vultures have Brand's possessions, where his body lays and who specifically led the attack on him. If he know such things.""</span> 

Masef seemed calm about the whole thing, eerily in control as he ticked off the things they might eke out of the man he was standing over. Of course, there was the impulse to simply slit a throat and be done with it, but they could always slit a throat now or later. If carefree Masef was like this, it was perhaps a sign of just how far Harold had gone when he or one of his minions decided that Brand of the Nightwood deserved anything but a life of peace after doing so much for the local area. It'd pained him to see Bosfyrd this...gray. Dulled, oppressed.

He wasn't entirely pleased to see all his siblings; step in as he might to save the drow from an attack on the flank, Masef was not entirely pleased to see a kinslayer back among them. It was Kazahk all over again; he walked in, started a fight and everyone else wound up dealing with the inevitable. Where they were already planning to do something, it might have gone off more silently, without rousing the entire town -- already some peeked through the windows of the tavern, saw the damage, and scurried away and Masef didn't blame them. They were not going to be alone here much longer. A quick check of the guards and their possessions yielded coin, dice, alcohol. 

But before they could do anything else, they had to see the old man properly buried. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Emma,""</span> Masef called out, <span class=""bb-b"">""Leave here screaming. Tear your dress a bit. It was a disagreement over dice, and we tried to stop you from fleeing. You barely escaped.""</span> he dropped a few on the floor, along with coins and cups to make it realistic, <span class=""bb-b"">""we certainly weren't welcome here. Don't lie about who we were.""</span> He was doing her a favor, in a sense -- she was surely a witness and they'd probably harm her if they thought she was at all friendly to the people that did this to local guards and holding back. Qazar made a noise of disgust, in his head, while noting that Masef was so soft-hearted that he'd care for some peasant girl that was unimportant in the scheme of things. Pious bleating and would-be heroism.

<span class=""bb-i"">Shut up, old fiend.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""This one, we take with us.""</span> He toed the inert form of the guard he'd kicked with the same boot that did the kicking, his eyes gleaming darkly.

That made Qazar cackle. It made Masef frown.</div>"
18983,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-02-28 22:15:00,Deja,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The ale in Kazahk’s hand went bottoms up, and the tavern exploded in action.

He never did take up the old man’s teachings of patience and planning. No, Kazahk forever sought to be the impetus of a situation, to act rather than react. There were many memories of game being startled by an impatient dark elf letting loose shot after shot towards the beast as is scampered away, and Brand never could get the rascal to sit still and fish upon a bank.  Those were the few thoughts that rang true to him when he headbutted the guardsmen, figuring this was the only course he knew how to follow, and so he must run it true to it’s end. After he shouted his greeting he saw a cask of the sureshot elf’s brandy knocked a  guard out cold, then a shadow of movement before a yelp of pain came from his flank as he spotted Masef’s work. His attention turned that way nearly made him miss the rope dart that gave Sigur, who name was shouted by kin Kazahk could not still name, a chance that was oh so easy to take.  Kazahk took his last gulps as he heard Varzhul dispatch a guard with little fanfare. He’d hoped a man with such a steed could defend himself, and he was right. The ale still hung at his lips as the last few seconds of bloodshed died down.

Ah, the dirty looks Kazahk got in his lifetime, none were so succulent than those he was closest with. He sipped his stolen ale with a wink in his eye as Sigur boorish visage gave him a look of displeasure, which to Kazahk was humorous considering he just cleaved a man in two, then finished off two of his fellows. Being a kinslayer, he knew there would be little he could say to change their hearts toward him, or to plead with them that he had attempted to right his wrong in the years of absence. Perhaps this is why he acted so brashly, as to prove himself loyal to Nightwood through action. His eagerness most likely came off as suspicious valor, but unless Kazahk dropped to his knees and asked Sigur to lop his head off if he thought the drow sought misfortune on the family, there was little Kazahk could do to change this motif.

He slammed down his drink when Sigur's laughing died down, and Masef spoke up, gathering his cloak from the floor and giving a wink toward Quinn as he did so. Just like old times, the drow was forcing hands to be played, and he would have been lying if he didn’t say he enjoyed it. Still, the whisper of regret and shame hung deep in his mind waiting to be dealt with, for Tagerdson’s memory was still strong for his kin, and Brand’s death even stronger. He shook his head almost unperceptively to rid himself of such thoughts at the moment; there would be a time for grieving and repentance, but not now. Long drow strides put him at the unconscious guard at Masef’s feet in four swagger filled paces. There was a palpable tension as he looked down at Masef, before he bent down and grabbed the guards collar and belt with a short huff, stood the unfortunate man up and tossed him over his shoulder like a sack of produce. 

Kazahk gave a wicked grin, the silver tooth catching the flickering lantern just enough to make it known. <span class=""bb-b"">“Where to now?”</span></div>"
18984,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-03-01 15:28:00,Vistruction,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Lysandra finished re-coiling her weapon and tucking it back under her sleeves as Sigur unceremoniously made short work of the last two standing bandits. The blood from his first kill was already pooling about, soaking into the floorboards of the tavern to forever leave a stain as remembrance of what they had done here. She had hoped that the situation wouldn't have reached this point but Kazahk had forced the issue and had left everyone with little choice in the matter.
Still, it was unnerving how calm they could all be in the wake of the situation contrast perfectly with Emma, who seemed paralyze with fear and utter shock at the violence that had exploded before her eyes. Lysandra pitted the woman for being so weak, so fragile to the ways of the world that she was practically helpless. But she also envied her greatly. Emma was a woman who hadn't experienced the dark side of their lives first hand and thus still had a semblance of innocence about her. She had grownup with a family that actually loved her and with a sense of belonging; Lysandra, on the other hand, had been raised by a stranger, albeit a kind hearted one, and a group of misfits and misfortunates alike. Her life would never amount to that of Emma's, no matter how many riches Lysandra sunk her greedy fingers into.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""Leave here screaming. Tear your dress a bit. It was a disagreement over dice, and we tried to stop you from fleeing. You barely escaped.""</span></span>

Catching on to Masef's line of thought, Lysandra stepped forward producing a knife from somewhere inside her cleavage and tore the woman's dress in several places. Emma only seemed mildly aware of what was happening around her but she nodded her understanding, nevertheless. <span class=""bb-b"">""I'm sorry about the tavern.""</span> Lysandra apologized as she ran a hand through the woman's hair, giving her a more disheveled appearance in order to pull off the ruse. <span class=""bb-b"">""I promise to pay you for all damages when I return.""</span> If the woman understood her, she didn't acknowledge it. Perhaps it was out of impulse to console the female in some manner or it was just that she could see so much of herself in the woman, regardless, Lysandry's wrapped her arms around Emma in a tight embrace before pushing her towards the entrance of the tavern.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">“Where to now?”</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">""The old hunting cabin.""</span> Lysandra offered turning back to regard her brothers. <span class=""bb-b"">""It still lays intact…most of it, anyways""</span> Last time she had laid eyes on the cabin, two days ago, it was still standing although weathered and worn from years of neglect. It could serve as  a perfect place for them to hide and lay low for the time being until a better plan could be formed. Strategically nestled deep in the woods not only a short distanced from Bosfyrd but also from Brand's home. As children they used to utilize the cabin as almost an outpost when spending more than a day out in the woods hunting for game. The cabin was their best and only answer at the moment.</div>"
18985,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-03-02 01:34:00,ibyaah,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The fight was over quickly, if it could be called a fight after all. Brand's children made short work of their adversaries and even left one yet alive for questioning. <span class=""bb-i"">We would make a very effective team of brigands...</span> was the dawning thought that left a wry frown on Quinn's clean shaven face. One thing they all had in common was that their adoptive father had instilled in all of them a sense of duty and purpose to uphold the greater good. <span class=""bb-i"">Well most of us, anyway.</span> The elf returned Kazahk's wink with a wary stare, never letting the drow out of his sight while the others discussed their next move. 

While the others talked, Quinn sheathed his sword and threw on his cloak, clasping the garment on at his right shoulder. Next came the weapon harness, its familiar weight and fit brought the elf a small sense of comfort. Finally, the archer crossed the room and produced a coil of hempen rope. Wordlessly, he bound the last remaining guard's wrists and ankles together, though he left enough room for the man to stumble. Quinn gave the knots a couple sharp test pulls to assess their strength then looked up to his siblings.

<span class=""bb-b"">""I agree with Lys,""</span> he began, finally breaking his silence. <span class=""bb-b"">""The cabin would make an ideal rallying point. Father and I had a small supply cache concealed in the stump behind the house. However,""</span> Quinn paused for a second to stand up to his full height and regard his siblings face to face. <span class=""bb-b"">""We should avoid traveling in one whole group. Perhaps go in varying directions to throw off any tails before doubling back. Then there's this one. Who gets to carry the drunkard?""</span>

All the while, the elf's quick eyes scanned his brothers and sister, weighing their chances. They all knew Brand's methods of becoming and staying concealed. However that was before they had participated in a tavern brawl as a group. Their next move would require delicate precision.</div>"
18986,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-03-02 13:08:00,Meth Quokka,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The fight had been shorter than Kazahk’s temper; the guards had nary a chance and they’d bitten off far more than they’d ever been able to chew. It had gone from simple bar brawl to Sigur deciding to carve apart the men with his ridiculously sized blade, which Varzhul would never be in a rush to meet in battle. While Varzhul was fast, skilled and seamless with the blade, it would be a tough fight to overcome that amount of raw, brute strength especially with a blade that large being swung. He almost sighed with disappointment at the first sign of blood being spilt, now he felt silly for having not gutted the fool that had come at him with the sword. A wry smile briefly flittered across his face as the guard cried out for who they are and Sigur sent a melodramatic yet mildly amusing reply to the man. His somewhat nonchalant comment after a hearty laugh that broke the melancholic silence of the room, caused a pang of worry in his mind as the half-orc seemed to be taking it somewhat less seriously then he should be. 

He watched silently, emotionlessly as Masef set about providing for the tavern wench’s escape from the subsequent wroth that would fall upon the town after this incident. A brawl would’ve raised few eyebrows but a slaughter would be raising alarms all along the land; a reinforcing of the guard would be inevitable and as such in order to recover Brand’s body, time would surely be of the essence. He nodded as Masef suggested they take the guard with them, as he readied himself to reply, Kazahk interrupted before he had the chance.

He shifted his gaze towards to the somewhat out-of-place drow, he’d been the cause of this whole violent affair, not that they necessarily would’ve fought without him but the drow had gone and forced the issue. Not to mention that after starting it he’d done little else but drink, abandoning his step-brother like a coward, he’d merely been entertained by the whole affair while endangering them all; albeit not a great amount of danger. None of the emotions played a hint across his face, instead burying them under a mountain of willpower and emotional guards built up over a lifetime of emotional management. His presence here was a wildcard of unimaginable proportions; he was unpredictable, violent and most of all a kinslayer. He alone of the brood had spilt the blood of a fellow brood member and it’s something he would ever really be forgiven for, not even if he slew every kingsman involved in the death of Brand; not that Varzhul would allow him to do that, his own blades cried out for blood and they would be sated. 

He refrained from immediately answering Kazahk’s query, he wanted to gauge the reaction of the room to the drow’s presence even though he knew well what they had to do.  When Lysandra suggested the use of the hunting cabin and Quinn agreed with her, Varzhul was quick to add his own approval, by saying <span class=""bb-b"">“We definitely need to lie low after this bloodbath. Although we should strike fast to recover father’s body before reinforcements arrive which will surely occur. I can take the guard with me, Torst, my warhorse, can easily take the extra weight of him; it’ll be easier than any of you carrying him through the forest now.”</span></div>"

How easily he could rectify ending a life, no matter how horrid and disgusting that life may be. But in his own eyes he was a monster slayer, and monsters came in all shapes and sizes. At least that was what he told to allow himself to sleep at night. As his laughter faded away as his siblings got down to more serious business, he silently cleaned his blade. It was a form of meditative practice: calming the mind through battle through some sort of regimental task. Brand had taught him during his tutelage to stretch, it was something simple that he used to calm himself yet risk his baser instincts taking over and slipping into a bloodrage. As he aged stretching became cleaning his blade as it seemed to become tainted more and more. He listened as he brought the rag across the cool metal wiping away the blemishes and making it shine once more. <span class=""bb-i"">Your blade is an extension of yourself. Treat it well and it shall treat you as a king.</span> Another quip from adoptive father, it seemed the more engrossed he got into the affairs of Bosfryd the more his ghost would never let him go. 

He listened as a plan was formed. It made sense to Sigur; Brand's old cabin was secluded and well off the beaten path, and more importantly since his death nobody was suspect ghosts of the past to haunt the wreck. He would of preferred if they had been able to capture one of Harold's officers. The information would of been more reliable and instead they would have to go by extend word and mouth. Though information could still be mined from them, patrol locations, weapon caches, and other useful kernels of information. It all depend on how hard they pushed their captives, how many lines they were willing to cross. Sigur knew he was willing to cross such lines in the name of justice, but he had his doubts with some. And if things were to transpire how he imagined they would, then that may be a problem further down the line. But he did not worry himself with such idle thoughts at the current time and place. If an issue would arise they would address it when it came.

His eyes drifted over to Kazahk in silence. The last time Sigur had seen the drow was before his kin-slaying escapades, a fact that he only learned about later in letters sent to him by Brand. Brand always felt the need to send him a letter when he knew that Sigur would be stationed in one city for awhile. To retell how his siblings were and how the Nightwood was faring. At the beginning Sigur did not reply but Brand kept on sending the messages and eventually Sigur softened and sent replies. Brand knew him better than most people alive or dead, and Brand knew how much underneath his intimidating exterior he cared for his siblings, for the people he left behind. The last reply Brand had sent said that he was taking up serious matters with William and that the kingdom would change soon enough. If only Sigur knew what he meant, if he only he could of warned him. Though in his heart he knew he could of never convinced Brand, as gentle and kind as he could be; he was a stern one when it came to his sense of justice. 

He understand why those around him distrusted Kazahk in the way they did. What they must of seen was in no way comparison of what words could describe. And he knew of the own deep cultural superstitions about the ashen colored people, he himself had experienced the so called ""Drow treachery"" as it were. But to taint his own brother with the image of Ysar, that was unfair to him. Judgement was to be unscrupulous, untainted by personal views. But his time traveling the world had shown him that maybe it was best to forgive while they were still alive, how many men would be alive if he allowed them mercy, how many would of done better things? And to be truthful they needed Kazahk as much as anyone else. He was an experienced fighter and could handle most situations thrown at him. Was that the pragmatic outlook yes, but in violence and retribution everyone is cutthroats at the end of the blood red line. Even though Sigur was considering giving him a chance, it did not atone for what he had done. To kill a brother in cold blood, he would either prove his worth again to the family, or he would die forever known as the kinslayer. It was choice that Sigur could help facilitate but in no way could he make the choice easy for him.

Evidently it seemed that they had come to a decision and for the first time since the combat Sigur spoke. <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-b"">"" Aye, so we all had off into the woods.""</span></span> He then walked over behind the bar and leaned down and found a lose floorboard. He then pulled up a heavy stone reveling a small hiding hole known only to Old Dunstan and his closest friends. Emma would surely find it there later. Sigur slowly produced something from his coin purse. Out came shining heavy coins, the sort that most people only dreamed of witnessing in a lifetime. They were legal tender of the Southern Traders and henceforth would be excepted almost anywhere as fair tender for their value. The inquisitional eye might wonder how Sigur acquired such coin and if asked he only replay that the price of blood was a high one indeed. Sigur spoke calmly to the ghosts that he felt in the room. <span class=""bb-b"">""Thank you Dunstan for the hospitality you had always shown our family. May Gruumsh guide you on your immortal journey, and may this coin resolve debts that can never be repayed.""</span> Slowly he dropped the coins into the hole as priest would bless a grave before recovering it to be found again at a later date.

He arose most solemnly juxtaposing the terrible warrior that stood in his place moments before. <span class=""bb-b"">""Remember go silent, leave no trace, and may the trees guide you home.""</span></div>"

Once they made it past Bosfyrd proper and into the meadows and farmsteads, it was easy work to lose the pursuit. But Brand's brood wasn't interested in merely escaping. They exacted a bloody toll on their path to revenge.

By the time they'd retrieved all their weapons and equipment, those that had ditched them to get into town unnoticed, a few of the local guardsmen had sprouted feathers the hard way -- longbow marksmanship was a calling card of Brand's; the Vendish were fond of the bow, but Brand, in his youth, had been a many times over champion archer and many of his adopted children were apt pupils themselves.

The war had begun in the wheat fields and the flowery meadows, in the tall grass and along the Fool's Lake, with men and women who disappeared into the wilds like faeries and struck their pursuers with expertly placed arrows and the occasional slashed throat. 

The pursuit, after a few such casualties, slowed down considerably. They were used to much easier prey, and the locals were all too gleeful in telling the tall tales -- Emma named names, and for every named name, there was a story told -- some, such as Sigur's and Kazakh's, were downright terrifying, but others painted an unpleasant picture for the mercenaries. The villagers, perhaps, relished the revenge of telling the local garrison, bandits and bullies, just who they were actually up against.

By the time it was over, the day was receding, and Masef was bone-weary from the fighting and the movement; he was even more elusive than in the old days, as the sands of his chosen environment were dangerous and constant awareness of visibility and the ability to hide in barren terrain put him in good stead here. His throat was parched, but that was not a new sensation to him, nor was the wrung-out feeling. The hunting cabin looked like it had seen better days with little to offer in the way of shelter to a normal person, but to Brand's brood, it looked like a more than comfortable place. It also occupied good terrain -- a strategic view of the area, well-hidden. There were supplies there that managed to weather the vagaries of time and climate. 

He was one of the last to arrive, but the first question on Masef's lips were, <span class=""bb-b"">""So, has our new friend awakened yet?""</span></div>"
18989,Blood Debt: Medieval/Fantasy Vengeance,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76281-blood-debt-medieval-fantasy-vengeance,"['Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Small Group']",2015-03-13 04:09:00,ibyaah,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">From the masking shade of the mid afternoon sun against the forest's canopy, Quinn observed the old hunting cabin that had once served as his and his sibling's refuge in the wild. It seemed, as recent times would show, that it would be appointed for that purpose once again. Quick elven eyes scanned the trees surrounding the structure, searching for any obvious signs of prior approach or departure. It was a well hidden sanctuary, only known to Brand's children and a select few others outside the family, the path leading to it a jumble to confused hunting trails and a maze of dead end walkways only someone who'd been there before could hope to navigate. The flight from the Scuffed Boots proved to be a lengthy affair, the armed response by the remaining Guards was sluggish but surprisingly organized and dogged. In the end, the archer was forced to wing a couple with some green feathered shafts to convince his pursuers of a different path. <br/><br/>A sigh escaped the hooded elf's face; it had been a long day. However, even with aches from the road and sleep now starting to call to his eyelids, he stuck to the hard taught discipline to remain vigilant. Quinn still had an arrow knocked to the composite shortbow, ready to draw back the weapon at a moment's notice. He now wore his full ranger garb, having changed into it before bidding his siblings and Emma farewell. Being in the outfit and the familiar landscape comforted him, despite the circumstances surrounding the return. <span class=""bb-i"">How often is it that all of us would be back together like this?</span> His mouth upturned in a wry frown, gaze momentarily dropping down to the forest floor. <span class=""bb-i"">I should have stayed with him longer...</span> A slight pang of guilt stabbed through his abdomen. Though master and apprentice, father and son, parted on the best of terms, would have it been too difficult to have visited more often? <br/><br/>Quinn pushed the thought from his head. Now was not the time to regret or mourn even - that would come later, with reminiscing and alcohol...a lot of alcohol. The archer gave his immediate area another scan. He gave his tail of guards the slip over an hour ago at Fool's Lake in the confusion of tagging one of them with an arrow to the right shoulder, just under the iron pauldron. Still, he ventured out even farther in the Vendland wild, letting his pursuers track his obvious path into a dead end before circling back to the cabin. This time, he made sure to mask his movements, ensuring that any tracker short of Brand himself or one of the champion's other children would have a difficult or improbable time catching up much less finding the elf. <br/><br/>A grin played across Quinn's features as he mused over how his brothers and sister would make their way over. Given how many guards followed him, the elf guessed his reputation for an easy going individual was still intact. <span class=""bb-i"">Good, let them think I'm the easiest to find and capture,</span> soft leather boots started padding slowly towards the cabin, <span class=""bb-i"">while they're chasing me, the others gain an even greater lead.</span> As he made the final approach, Quinn noted the old stump was still as it was when he and Brand last left it, an old rusted axe with its handle almost rotted away leaning against it. <span class=""bb-i"">Looks like I'm the first to make it...</span> He skirted the cabin's perimeter and located the old well on the far side. Gauntleted hands picked up the wooden pail laid unceremoniously next to the well and laid it down, bottom up, on the well's ledge. Satisfied that he still remembered their sign for 'someone is home,' he turned and made for the cabin's main door. <br/><br/>The door remained locked as it always had been but Quinn still swept the interior with bow half drawn. Convinced that the cabin was secure, the archer closed the front door and set about taking a silent inventory of the cabin's supplies. He decided against a fire or anything overt for the time being. There would be time enough for that when the rest of Brand's children arrived. For now, the telltale sign out front would have to do.</div>"

She watched as guards pursued him, a quartet of them, and sighed. It seemed that her brother recognized that he too had pursuers of his own right, immediately went to disguising his movements as he descended deeper and deeper into the wood. It was only a mater of a few minutes, and before they even realized it, the guards were walking in circles. <br/><br/>From the trees, she watched and smirked. Fools like these would never find her father's cabin if only by sheer luck. Even still, that was not a risk that the silver-haired girl was willing to afford. From a distance between the trees, she notched an arrow onto the string and drew the fletching back to her ear. With a singsong twang, the arrow whistled through the air and struck a guard through the neck before burrowing into the chest of another.<br/><br/>What were once suddenly four guards became two as both men collapsed into a gurgling mess of blood. Crying out in fear, the remaining two fled as the wounded one attempted to crawl away. She watched him, considering how it was best to retrieve her arrow, and then hopped down from her perch. <br/><br/>Sauntering up to the slowly dying man, she heard him whimper as with her footfalls, her presence became overly obvious. She did not draw her knife to finish her prey, instead she grasped the shaft of the arrow and pushed it slowly deeper. Breaking his weakly fluttering heart and snapping his mortal coil. <br/><br/>It only took a few minutes longer for her to arrive at the cabin. Within it, Quinn would be able to hear the sound of footsteps lightly tapping across the rooftop. It was an intentional giveaway to mark her presence there, it had always been her favorite perch when visiting this cabin, so she comfortably sat upon the rooftop and swept the hood from atop her head. <br/><br/>Crossing one leg over the other, she patiently waited just like Quinn for her other siblings to arrive.</div>"

The messenger, a young man of the Lost Sons stood there watching her eat. She eat slowly to help with her thinking rationalizing what had been said, looking at the said young man and had shooed him away. Knowing that Brand's so called children would come back, though hadn't anticipated the manner they'd come back. Taking a slightly less than lady like sip of the wine since the only other occupant with her was Garmin and a few servants. Motioning for a refill, sitting there in thought. She had hired the Lost Sons for two reasons. One being that her husband had use their services frequently and she couldn't afford much else since her funds had been depleted helping in the Kings war. But to kill five and a presumed sixth, was idiotic saying the least. Exhaling a sigh rubbing her temple.<br/><br/>""Countess?"" Garmin had heard the news too, but waited to say anything until it became obvious and finishing his seventh pint of black ale at the sitting. Looking at her, his look estranged and also curious on her thoughts.<br/><br/>""It is nothing, my giant. But we shall take a trip to town regardless. I want to see the damages and the town after all, it is by right mine now. Have the horses saddled please, I don't to come off too high to the town after all."" Smiling coyly, though it was obviously threaded with maliciousness. <br/><br/>Garmin had snapped his large fingers to one of servants in hall, a rough man with age but loyal too the two for sparing his family out of humility. What Adelaide had wanted was heard, so in respects Garmin only gestured towards the stables for their horses to be saddled and ready. Motioning for another pint before they were to take off, only feeling a buzz of minuscule proportions. Tearing apart the rest of his  chicken, preferring it plain. <br/><br/>Adelaide had finished her second cup before Garmin had finished, wiping the crumbs and dribbles of black ale with her satin handkerchief. Nodding seemingly in unison as it was time now to cheek the damages inflicted. Both of them taking different routes to the stables, Adelaide to grab her velvet riding cloak while Garmin in his leathers and mail. Making the rendezvous at the stables quick, she was curious on the matters at hand despite it being a thorn in in her side. Garmin helping Adelaide up as to not rip the expensive silk dress, after which he mounted his own humongous black Shire horse that made him further imposing. As if the massive blade at his side wasn't enough.<br/><br/>The ride had been silent between them as any unnecessary was avoided out in the open. But coming up to tavern which she cared little for the name of. Looking about at the string of mercenaries and the their captains, the disapproval obvious but sometimes situations arose she do little on. The captains Carlin and Nrave knew she wasn't the type to be explained from their work in their homeland. Adelaide once again receiving aide from Garmin to get down, ignoring the peasant onlookers as she looked at the corpses of the slain men. Seeing the methods used before shaking her head. Two or three losses would've been acceptable but not this many. Exhaling a sigh, looking over the the carnage that the tavern had seen. Watching the woman in the back with torn dress, but her attention diverted when Garmin and the two captains had come inside the tavern.<br/><br/>""We're chasing them down now."" Carlin spoke after taking a half full mug from one of the tables.<br/><br/>""Call them back. We'd only be feeding into what they want. They kill using stealth or distance and them following into the woods is just what they want. We need this pack Brand's cubs on our terms."" Adelaide had quickly retorted.Both men hated to admit that Adelaide was right and had yielded to her request to spare their men. ""All is not lost though, perhaps we can lay a trap for them though."" Musing a smile<br/><br/>""Pardon Countess?"" Nrave had spoke questioning her motive.<br/><br/>""We're going to throw a celebration. Expose them, frame them for something perhaps. Possible catch or kill one of them if possible. All under the guise of simply having a good time. I will explain it to the both of you as you accompany me back to the estate. Garmin?"" The giant of a man looking at his small mistress as she waved her fingers down for him to hear her. ""That girl knows something, the one in the tattered dress find out please and thank you."" Adelaide kissing Garmin's cheek before taking her leave with the two captains.<br/><br/>With the light reflecting off his bald head, Garmin looked to the woman in the tattered dress. His eyes growing dark as he turned to the woman in question. His very steps mirrored a quake as some drinks split as mugs fell and tremors flowed from him. Looking down at her obviously terrified of the man and had every right to be. Grasping one of the metal mugs, making sure she was watching as Garmin crushed to a ball in his hand before dropping it. After he said only four words in a both solemn and terrifying low tone of voice.<br/><br/>""We need to talk.""</div>"

<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">I</font></span>n Character Info:</div>
<div class=""bb-indent""><span class=""bb-i"">Brand of the Nightwood was a local fixture in Bosfyrd, on the border of Vendland, though a remote one -- a woodsman known to occasionally appear with a story or an act of charity, a guide for those that were lost or otherwise in trouble in the forest and someone that kept bandits on their toes. He didn't spend much time in the towns surrounding the Nightwood itself, but he was known because of his skills and his essentially kind nature. He wasn't the most polished gem, but he was a fine person to know when there was trouble afoot. The old ranger had a reputation for his skill and an adventurous youth. He retired to the Nightwood and became a figure of remote charity -- he seemed to have a way with the stray children that seemed to show up in the area, incorrigables and the such that he took in. He was the place's sentinel, keeping a watch for monsters and other things in the forests, keeping bandits on their toes. He stayed out of local politics, but he always lent a helping hand.

There was a revolt against King Harold, and it was a powerful one that won a couple battles, humiliating the King in the field, forcing him to make concessions to his barons and other nobles.

Harold did not take the defeat well; he spent money he didn't really have to build an army to put his kingdom firmly in his authority, ignoring all the promises he made prior. One of the leaders, William of Barkstead, was a firm friend of Brand's and the old ranger took the man's two children under his wing to protect them from the bloody chevauchee of King Harold against his own nobility. This campaign of Harold, leading an army that included monstrous troops and dark magic users, was successful but left bodies and burned towns strewn about its wake. But, in the end, Harold had what he wanted; Baron William on a cross alongside the other leaders of the Barons' Revolt. That vengeance was good, but not enough -- the children, heirs, had to die so he could provide land and titles to his cronies. He was known as Harold the Bloody, his brutality and tyranny infamous. But it was what he wanted, the people cowed.

Except, not all were cowed. Brand of the Nightwood stayed out of the war, fearing the consequences that came to pas. King Harold's men came for Brand of Nightwood; they found a formidable old man, a warrior in the winter of his years. He did not mince his words when faced with the tyrant's warriors, though he did offer to have the children renounce their inheritance and raise them as his own, with no quarrel. However, there was no intenion to give the children up for torture, rape or whatever else the king's depraved killers could imagine. William entrusted them to him to keep safe, and Brand was a man of his word.

The olive branch was not enough for Harold's minions. It was a fight, but Brand lost against overwhelming odds, making a stand. He was in the winter of his life, but instead of living out those days in well-earned peace, he was brutally executed, though not without taking his toll from the enemy. 

However, the Earl's children weren't the first orphans old Brand ever took in. They were merely the latest of a number of children that called him 'Father,' an array of siblings spread out over the world who made the journey to pay respects to their adoptive father, and to perhaps redress the injustice of his death...</span></div>
<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#39b54a"">O</font></span>ut of Character Info:</div>
<div class=""bb-indent"">The characters here are family; they're all rangers that Brand of the Nightwood adopted, and they are back to bury the old man. Of course, the powers that be have already pissed them off considerably, but to add insult to injury, they will of course attempt to clarify that need for vengeance by trying to defile the body or disrupt the burial. Or perhaps, the characters need to steal the body back in the night from where it is displayed as a warning to others, thus creating a situation where they need to fight anyway. In any case, the opening scene will be a local priest risking all to give Brand a proper burial. The King's minions will come to disrupt it. Unknown to them, Brand's sons and daughters will be there, each a dangerous individual on their own, experienced rangers all.

The campaign will center around this band's involvement in the civil war, but they are also family. Adopted family of varying races (perhaps) and creeds, different from each other in many ways, but with a huge common ground -- the same man raised them, probably at the same time, though we should spread the ages out -- some of the characters are older and some are younger, over the span of perhaps twenty years or more. 

While the characters are all rangers, that doesn't mean they're the same -- there's a great degree of diversity in the class, as well as multiclass options or prestige class types. I am not using D&amp;D 3.5 rules or any ruleset, but I am using the template to sort of inform how we view our characters and their capabilities, if that makes sense.

For running the RP, I intend to share the GM responsibility a bit -- this is a collaborative process and while I have specific ideas on plot points, I want others to feel free to propose scenarios and quest-items and so forth, as well as to play the role of the antagonists (there will be many and varied) and to add to developing the setting our characters will be playing in. We should, above all, feel invested in this RP together and share a collective sense of ownership. On the other hand, I'll retain the ability to settle disputes as the thread owner, but I'm hoping we don't come to that. 

In any case, I want to do a rockin' RP out of this.</div></div>"

Can't wait to get this underway. Also, just a heads up. I changed the appearance image of Tohi (still a Truth Shield Tortisan). I found a much better representation of him that fits more with Borzgo's character. Some edits that I made to his character are underlined here: 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote""><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Tohi"" type=""button"">Tohi [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://www.malefic.jp/dsm/p/dsm7961.jpg""/>
<div class=""bb-indent"">At nearly five feet tall, Tohi considers himself to be the finest specimen of war tortoisans. Much like Borzgo, he is at the prime stage of his life span. The jagged carapaces overgrowing his backside, and the bone platings that protect his chest and joints keep him well guarded. As a defense mechanism, Tohi can curl inside his shell and extend some of its outer platings into spike-like protrusions. What his natural plates of armor don't cover are swathed in a callous-like hide, functioning as a protective layer against the environments.<span class=""bb-u"">He wears a light blue cleric's battle robe that comes with bronze metaled shoulder pads and knee guards. The azure gemstone fastened around his neck is supposedly a symbolic heirloom from the Truth Shield dynasty.</span></div>

also in his equipment...

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Tohi's Personal Equipment:</span></span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-b"">Weapons:</span> <span class=""bb-u"">A Retractable Spear</span>, an <span class=""bb-u"">Elder Truth Shield</span>, <span class=""bb-u"">an Elder Truth Mace</span>, Small Daggers (usually kept inside his shell), and a Crossbow.</li><li><span class=""bb-b"">Traveler's Journal:</span> Full compendium of Borzgo and Tohi's adventures.

It's a matter of style, okay? A proper brawl doesn't just happen. You don't pile in, not anymore.

Now, Oyster Dave here - put your helmet back on, Dave - will be the enemy in front, and Basalt, who as we know, don't need a helmet, he'll be the enemy coming up behind you. Okay, it's well past knuckles time, let's say Gravy there has done his thing with the Bench Swipe, there's a bit of knife play, we've done the whole Chandelier Swing number, blah blah blah, then Second Chair - that's you, Bob - you step smartly between their Number Five man and a Bottler, swing the chair back over your head, like this - sorry, Pointy - and then swing it right back onto Number Five, bang, crash, and there's a cushy six points in your pocket. If they're playing a dwarf at Number Five, then a chair won't even slow him down, but don't fret, hang on to the bits that stay in your hand, pause one moment as he comes at you, then belt him across both ears. They hate that, as Stronginthearm here will tell you. Another three points.

It's probably going to be freestyle after that but I want all of you, including Mucky Mick and Crispo, to try for a Double Andrew when it gets down to the fist-fighting again. Remember? You back into each other, turn around to give the other guy a thumping, cue moment of humorous recognition, then link left arms, swing round and see to the other fellow's attacker, foot or fist, it's your choice. Fifteen points right there if you get it to flow just right.

Oh, and remember we'll have an Igor standing by, so if your arm gets taken off do pick it up and hit the other bugger with it, it gets a laugh and twenty points. On that subject, do remember what I said about getting everything tattooed with your name, all right? Igors do their best, but you'll be on your feet much quicker if you make life easier for him and, what's more, it's your feet you'll be on. Okay, positions, everyone, let's run through it again...</span>

With flush, radiant tones of pale skin beset upon hues of pale blue for her eyes, she can be quite the beauty to behold if she ever strayed from beneath the guise of her royal blue hood of her cloak embroidered in intricate patterns of silver.<br/><br/>Her hair however, is what earned her name from her father. Long, thick, and pale as the moon itself, <br/><br/>Beneath the cloak rests a tunic made of fine silks that rests in a skirt just below her thighs. Leading the way up from her toes however is a pair of thigh-high boots made from fine leather. When she walks, she does so with an almost feline grace, with the muffled chain mail that pokes out from beneath her tunic making near to absolutely no noise. It is in the forest that she has survived on her own for many years, and as a result there is a certain...wildness that flickers within her eyes.<br/><br/>Armament wise, she is rather light in comparison to her adoptive siblings, though it doesn't make her any less skilled or lethal. A longbow and quiver, from which the fletching of twenty eagle-feathered arrows pokes forward from. Upon her thigh just below the cuff of her boot also resides a sizeable hunting Knife that she oft uses for hunting and skinning. <br/> <br/><span class=""bb-u"">Skillset</span>: <br/><span class=""bb-u"">Precision Archery</span> - Just like her elder siblings, Artemis is incredibly adept in the art of notching an arrow unto a string and loosing it into the air towards an adversary with incredible accuracy. Her weapon of preference is a longbow. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Stealth and Subterfuge</span> - Always one light of feet, depth of shadow, and extraordinarily able to spot a weakness in an adversary's defense, even among her siblings it is difficult to match Artemis in such a skill.<br/><br/>Hand to Hand Combat - Much like her siblings, she is adept in close quarters combat. Often using even her prized longbow as a weapon to do so, she prefers to avoid it. As she is the poorest in this category when compared to her siblings. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Charmer</span> - Because of her oddly eternal youth, bartering for a better deal or perhaps even luring an enemy to render them exposed to an ambush is something she can quite easily do. That is if she chose to, which only rarely occurs.<br/><br/> <span class=""bb-b"">History</span>: Dying on the streets of a city because of starvation is where Brand first found Artemis. A weak, broken child lost of any hope for the world in her youngest years of life. Begging for food or stealing scraps had been how her life continued to exist, and when he inquired where her parents had went, she had not a clue. For as long as she had known, Artemis had not known the ceiling of a home nor the crackling warmth of a fire.<br/><br/>There had only been the starlight and the moon to keep her company. <br/><br/>Brand took pity on her, sweeping the child up beneath his wing and bringing her into his home with many other orphans of the same troubled state. There, for the first time in months, she had her first decent meal, her first rest upon a comfortable bed and pillow, and to what little she could remember, she now had a family. At first, her many siblings seemed to be suspicious of the young girl, but eventually came to accept her being there.<br/><br/>She however, admired just about all of them. Each of them older, stronger, and faster than she was. Something she had to aspire to in her silence and lack of words. Brand feared her to be mute at first, but soon found that she only spoke a few words, and only when directly asked to do so. It were a peculiar trait for a young girl to have, but it was soon accepted that Artemis only spoke when spoken to, or when what little words she had to say would bear a significant weight.<br/><br/>Because of Brand, she learned how to fire a bow. Once she had finally regained her strength from good food, Artemis soon after learned to draw back an arrow and fire it. Years passed before she could reach the same kind of accuracy her siblings possessed, but it would eventually become a valuable skill as at the age of twelve, she would join them on hunts from time to time. Even taking a kill or two of her own as she learned how to move silently through the forest.<br/><br/>Quietly, with each step that she took making not a whisper. Much like the Goddess she had been nicknamed after. Yet of all her siblings she chose to remain mostly unknown. A ghost compared to some, an invisible wallflower compared to others. The only fame she was granted was that of her beauty when she came of age to marry, and she was unveiled on accident one day as Brand's moonlight flower daughter.<br/><br/>Merely hours after, suitors came to his door seeking his daughter's hand.<br/><br/>On that same day, her eighteenth birthday, she strayed from her home and into the wild where she felt so much at home. What was once a ceiling and crackling fire for her comfort once again became the chilled starlight and pale moonlight she once had been friends with as a child. <br/><br/>She did not return until Brand passed away, and only distantly did she watch her siblings, invisibly keeping an eye on them from far away, just in reach of her longbow in case they came under attack.<br/><br/>Until now. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Psychological Profile</span>: <br/>Artemis is one who is quiet, a literal practitioner of the thought that ""Still Waters run Deep"". Though she is a bit of a dreamer in terms of romance, she strays from such a thought as it is believed to her that it is impossible for her to find love in such a world full of strife and conflict. She walks quietly, and speaks even quieter yet, but when she does it carries distinction in spite of how much younger than she is compared to her siblings. For when she speaks, often it means that her words are of dire consequence. <br/><br/>Intellectual and analytical, Artemis tends to practice the thought that one should walk softly and carry a big stick. Ambushes are her preferred thoughts of combat, as large-scale wars are often so ill-suited for her. Quick, painful, and detrimental attacks through guerilla warfare, or simply even laying in wait in a forest. Perched on high, and hoping the buck she has been luring now for hours strays within sight of her bow.<br/> <br/><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>:<br/><span class=""bb-i"">Weapons</span>:<br/><span class=""bb-u"">Brand's Longbow</span> - Shortly before she disappeared, Brand gifted her his own personal longbow as a present for her eighteenth birthday. She regards it as precious beyond any measure and will defend it with her life.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Heavy Quiver</span> - Instead of across diagonally at her back, Artemis wears this quiver loosely about the back of her waist. Comfort and for drawing speed of an arrow are the primary reasons.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-u"">Hunting Knife</span> - A long, wonderfully forged knife that she uses for skinning and killing a wounded animal. Quite functional for finishing off mortal enemies as well.  <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Armor</span>:<br/><span class=""bb-u"">Heavy Cloak</span> -  Water and rainproof, made of fine materials and is navy blue in color. Embroidered are intricate patterns of silver. She uses the hood to disguise her face. Neither sword or arrow proof, it is essential for protection from the elements.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Tunic</span> - Made of heavy cloth and carefully fit for her. Made of a pastel red, it's actually quite a beautiful assembly of fabrics.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Truesilver Chainmail</span> - Muffled by the tunic, it is almost perfectly quiet when she walks with it. Providing additional, more durable protection against lighter sword blows and arrows. It is made of a wonderfully durable material, and true to its nature it shines beautifully in the moonlight.</div></div><br/><br/>Here, I think? Maybe? </div>"

Lady scarlet rested upon her stash of gold, that she had cleaned just recently and looks up and sees the vampire dragon coming closer to her newly found territory, and spots another dragon in the skies.

Her fire burned deep with aggression and protectiveness, her young son was to be living here with her but he was still at the castle that they previously lived in. She burned the ground with her fiery breath summoning her son from the castle to the graveyard ""Hello my favored child, fly overhead and see why that dragon has approached our territory.. Also bring me a few souls if you can"" she says and softly nudges him caressing him almost soothingly. 

  
Pyro Skull:
As a flame ball bursts before Lady scarlet her son Pyro Skull emerges and stretches as he is greeted by his mother he returns with ""hello dearest mother"" he senses and notices the presence of the vampire dragon, after listening to his mothers request he replies. ""Right away mother"", he looks over and says hello to the vampire dragon, than leaps into the air taking flight and bursts into the direction of the fire dragon. He yells as he is in ear shot i will whale if i need assistance. He continues to fly he dives down and quickly raises five undead and command them to hobble to his mother to be be consumed by her awesome fire he decides to stand here and wait for the fire dragon to approach.

She was like a shadow and was glad that she could hide and not deal with the drama that was in school. Balancing her time as a low profile vigilante. She felt a need to help others and when she found out what she could do, she felt her calling. Walking into class, she sat down in her deck swiftly and set her proper book on her desk. Setting her backpack aside near her desk, Desondra got out her drawing pad and started doodling. She was decent at drawing but it was a passtime. Des knew about the hero's and how some had retired. Some young ones stepped up to the hero business. Waiting for class to start, she leaned back. Not taking notice that Nick Rogers was one row ahead of her and diagonally to her right.</div>"

Looking over his shoulder to see desondra in her desk, shrugging he looked forward again. He was slightly tired, though nothing he could power through, watching as class started he took whatever notes the teacher gave them. Fun part was for homework they needed to do a report on some of the old Hero's that had retired smiling to that his father would be the perfect person. Bell rung signaling end of day, grabbing his bag and walking out.</div>"

She knew none personally and there for had to go on unreliable sources to get a paper done. Putting the paper in the proper class folder when when the bell rang, she headed to her next class. It was like any other day really. Go through one class, pass through students like a ghost, not touching a soul, seat herself and not be one to talk, not having any soul to talk to for no one wanted to her for some reason (stopped trying in middle school). Then lunch, sitting in the hallways to avoid any students she didnt know what to say. Gym was a breeze and was known as a rag doll for how flexible and graceful she was. Then go on like nothing happened. but today was a rare day where she wasn't paying attention and would accidently run into someone she shouldnt run into. As she was walking, Des brushed her shoulder into one of the random student that thought he was above those like her who turned, looking insulted. ""Hey! ragdoll! Watch where your going!"" Des only froze and looked over to the male that yelled at her. ""Sorry. I didn't mean to."" She told him honestly. 

""Make sure you don't."" He walked up to her and pushed her into a locker sharply. Desondra yelped as she hit it. the male laughed. ""Next time it better not happen!"" He ripped her backpack off her shoulder, turning to walk away and leave. Des felt pain in her back where her shoulder blades hit metal. Groaning, she reached for her backpack.</div>"

Before he could read it though, he heard voices though he knew Michael as mostly a jerk. When Michael had passed him, when he pushed a girl into the lockers he let his shoulder roughly hit his. Some students knew not to deal with Nick in a fight, walking forward setting his bag down and helping her gather up the books that were on the floor. His own bag on the floor, the blonde getting books into a neat stack before picking them up.</div>"

Looking to who would help her, she noticed Nick Rogers. Her emerald eyes looking him like he was alien. ""Th-thank you."" Was all she could say. No one really helped her so this was strange. Grabbing her supplies putting them neatly in her backpack, she saw a shadow and looked up to see Micheal and a couple of his buddies. ""What's your problem?"" He demanded Nick. ""Was it because I pushed your friend?"" He mocked. He kicked Nick's bag to scatter the contents within. But more aimed at Rogers. Des was not happy about him being a jerk and felt the need to stop this. Coming out of her shell, she grabbed an index card and flicked it, leaving a paper cut on his cheek. ""You need to stop picking on people under you. Your a bully no one tolerates."" She spat, almost like she was cat, squaring herself and spitting at him like her was dog. 

Micheal had yelped at the sudden pain and the now slightly bleeding cheek, but was amused. ""So the cat finally bares it's claws, huh? Was wondering when you would stop being a ghost."" He kept his cool with Des not amused by his antics. ""You might as well back off before you really get into trouble."" Micheal  dared. Des wasn't wanting to back off this time.</div>"

He grunted at the kicks his torso took, before they stopped he looked up to see Michael had a cut on his cheek. Getting to his feet, one of his arms around his stomach. Though other than that, he was fine some bruises were starting to form on his arms. ""Though also Michael maybe it was because you pushed her. It was mostly because of that and the crap you've been putting other students through. If you hadn't caught me by surprise you would be on this floor right about now.""</div>"

Hearing Nicks remark, Micheal smirked. ""Oh yeah? Think you can do that captain goody two shoes?. Or are you gonna be like that bitch and just bark?"" 

Okay, so Xesondra was pissed and let the anger get the best of her. She wanted him to shut it leave them be. Hiw she went about as you can see was not the best way to take the insults for shs went up toward Michael and back handed him. Michaels buddies were gonna jump Des when a shout rang out. ""ENOUGH!"" Everything was eerie silent and time froze as a couple staff members came up. Des felt butterflies in her stomach and backed off. 

""The five of you. Principles office. Miss Davis. Help Mr. Rogers to the nurse's office first. You're stuff will be gathered."" The three bullies went to the principles office while Des went with Nick up to the nurse. Her back still hurt and felt it sting with each movement of her arms.</div>"

He took a step forward when the shout rang out, he stopped when he heard the teachers voice. Letting Des help him to the nurses office, ""thanks for back there."" 

He was limping, probably one of michaels buddies got a shot at his shin or ankle he didn't know. Nick just knew his body hurt, it had been awhile since anyone was able to get the jump on him.</div>"
19172,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-09 07:30:00,Jazz,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">(And I edited that. Oh well. I'll fix it again. Never mind. x3 )

Des walked with Nick with the nurses office not that far. She looked at Nick when he had thanked her. This was still strange and didnt know what she was to say exactly. ""You are welcome. I think."" She wasnt exactly sure who should be thanking whom. ""Though I thank you for helping me."" Okay this felt awkward. ""I-uh...I haven't been to the principles office before..."" Des admitted, and that was true. She had avoided it all till today. Now she had ruined the streak. But felt that it was necessary. ""What do you think will happen?"" She asked nervously. 

Making it to the door of the nurses office, she opened the door and managed to shut it. The nurse looked over to the two. ""What happen, she asked. ""Nick got kicked. And I got slammed into a locker."" Des told the nurse. She had the two sit down and checked them out.</div>"
19173,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-09 07:42:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Nick shrugged then winced, ""Michael and his buddies will probably get suspended and you and me detention at the most."" Once in the nurses office, wincing slightly whenever the nurse found a bruise he had a couple bruised ribs and his shin hurt like hell. All of him hurt, ""couldn't stand by and let you deal with the jerk. Usually he wouldn't give me any trouble he caught me off guard though."" 

Sighing, ""I can probably help you with the report on retired Hero's I have a few things that might help you."" Wincing again, when the nurse hit another bruise and then removed his arm from his stomach his stomach took the majority of the kicks one big bruise to the left side of him.</div>"
19174,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-09 08:24:00,Jazz,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Nodding, Des waited for her turn as she watched the nurse at work. She too winced when she saw his bruises. Her mind was taken off the bruises and on the offer Nick gave her. She thought about it for a long moment. ""Thank you. There are many unreliable sources."" Though once she said that she winced loudly as the bruises on his stomach. ""Will you...be okay?"" She asked. Surprised he wasnt crying like some kids would. The nurse was soon done with her accessment of his injuries. She went to her desk, pulled out some pills from a bottle and a small cup of water. ""Its Ibeprophin (I'm sure I spelled it wrong). It should help with the pain. As for your bruises, you can either go home and put some ice on those or continue the last bit of the day. However you might want to stay off the shin a while."" She explained. When the pills and water was taken, she then had Does turn away from Nick so the nurse could check her back. Lifting her shirt, the nurse poked her shoulder blades a little as Desondra winced at the right touches. There was no bruising but something that would need a little time to heal. ""You will be fine Des. No bruising."" So then the nurse went back to her desk and waited for what Nick wanted to do.</div>"

Thinking about it, he nodded to that. ""I'll go home let my shin heal up what it can before I come back here tomorrow."" While the nurse called his dad, he grabbed a pen and piece of paper writing down his number and holding it out to Des. ""Here give me a call and I'll give you the address to my place, so make sure Michael and his buddies get suspended for me."" When the pills were handed to him, he swallowed them drinking the water to swallow them down. He wouldn't be out dealing with, anybody that threatened the city tonight Michael had made sure of that.</div>"

""Alright "" was really all she could say. But stood as when a teacher had both Nick and Desondra's things. She too her bag and looked through the contents to make sure that all was still there. Looking relieved that all was still there, she zipped it up and slung it over her shoulder. ""I will call you later then. To let you know what will happen to us both."" She nodded to Rogers and left to go await her fate and Nick's for him.

After school and when Des got home, she walked in and went straight to her room with her dog in toe. shutting her door, Desondra set her bag down on her bed and grabbed her phone. Dialing the number Nick gave to her, she pressed call and waited for someone to answer.</div>"
19177,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-09 18:05:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Nick nodded, watching Des leave. Once he had gotten home, he slowly limped toward his room right now he didn't need to deal with his mom or dad. Collapsing on the bed, he took some of the books or journals that his dad had given him from his old Hero work. Going through them for a few hours, so he could get a head start on the report.

He heard his phone ring, stumbling over to his desk. Falling and grunting while grabbing his phone from his desk while he still was on the floor. ""Hello?"" His voice sounded somewhat frustrated. With not being able to walk right for awhile, but nothing less it was nothing to much to worry about.</div>"
19178,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-09 18:23:00,Jazz,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When the phone was answered, Des heard a frustrated hello. ""This is Desondra, from school. You alright?"" She asked, thinking it was Nick, but the voice was slightly different than speaking to him personally. When he gave her an answer, she took a deep breath and laid back on her bed. ""We both have 4 days of in school suspension. If I hadn't of hit one of Micheal's buddies with my bag, it would have been less, They did not mention the paper cut I gave micheal from a study card. Micheal and his friends have out of school suspension for 2 weeks."" She told him. ""I managed to get homework from your last class. Would it be alright if I could come over and give it to you?"" Des asked next. She felt it was the least she could do for him helping her.</div>"

It didn't sound so bad, as long as he had something to pass the time with. ""Michael and his friends deserve what they got, anyway yah it's fine to come over though don't expect my room to be clean."" He pushed himself into the sitting position looking at the books scattered around, ""either way I was going to help you with that report. I'll make sure my parents know your coming over, they don't really like surprise visits from anyone.""</div>"

One of them she was gonna write a note of where she was to be, that her phone was gonna be with her and what time she was gonna try to be home by. The other was the address of Nick's house. ""What is yours address?"" She asked, ready to write it down when he told her. After the address was given, Desondra grabbed her bag, what else she may need and would head down the stairs with her phone still in hand and with Nick still on the other line. Heading to the kitchen, she grabbed a water bottle from the fridge. ""I'll see you when I get there, then."" She would then hang up and head out after having taken Drake to the back so he wasn't cooped up in the house. She had placed the note on her door and left by motorcycle. It wasnt a fancy one but got there from point A to point B with no issues. 

Upon arriving to the right address, and making sure. Desondra parked her cycle turned it off. Putting the keys in her pocket and her helmet aside. Walking over to the door, she knocked, gripping her bag out of being nervous. She had never gone to someone's house before unless it was family. This was different, this was going to be someone where she hadn't been to. People she didn't know.</div>"

Steve heard his sons yell. ""Alright!"" Sighing nick did the best he could putting the stacks of books on his bed his room looked a bit better but not by much.

Hearing the knock Steve opened the door, ""so you must be the friend Nicks helping. Come on in,"" he moved to the side of the door. ""Also Nick probably has his music on in his room so be careful with whatever he's working on now with his music he won't be ready for someone to yell at him or surprise him.""</div>"

She looked at him to notice who it was. Steve Rogers. She entered when given the permission, though stopped when Steve spoke, She nodded. ""I understand. My name is Desondra Davis. It is pleasure to meet you."" She said. Then walked up to find Nick's room. She followed the music and had noticed that most of it was something she listened to. When Desondra found the room, she knocked on the door loud enough so Nick could hear it.</div>"

Pausing the music, and cursing quietly to himself once it fell out of his grasp. Shaking his head slightly, ""come in!"" He set the book down on the stack at the edge of his bed, his room was still a mess with books that he didn't need scattered on the floor after finding the books and journals he needed. He was lying on his pillows, rubbing his face slightly some band posters were on the walls though some of them were mostly Hero's.</div>"

Looking around the room, she took it all in, looking at the books, posters, bed, floor, ect. Making sure not to step onto anything, Desondra closed the door and put her attention to Nick. ""Is there uh....somewhere I am able to sit?"" She asked, making sure she wasn't going to sit somewhere she wasn't suppose to.</div>"

""I am curious. How did you know I was in need of help with our report?"" She asked, unsure what she was to think about this. It was odd he would know what she was thinking. It was kinda creepy in her opinion. But setting the awkwardness aside, Des looked at the book with curiosity.</div>"

""It is good that your shin is recovering well. But Here you go, I practically forgot."" She pulled out a folder and handed it to Nick. ""It has the homework from the last class you missed. I got so concentrated on the report I forgot about the homework I collected for you."" She turned but noticed the Stereo and had this faint smile. ""Linkin Park. If you havent heard of the band. It is good. I'll see you later."" Desondra said as she made her way out of Nick's room and house after saying goodbye to Nick's parents and thanking them for letting her come over. Heading to her motorcycle, started the ignition after putting her Helmet on and left for home.

When Des got home, she headed inside, had dinner with her family, did her report and some other homework before going to bed.</div>"

""Good to see you Nick. Sorry I'm late. The council isn't pleased as usual. But I have your new partner this morning. Thought you could show her the ropes of how we run things."" Standing at his desk, the door opened again. Coming in, was a female that looked like she had Asgardian attire related to Loki. But more for a female if Patriot knew who Loki was and looked like(jacket included), Her hair was a dark brown to almost raven black, her eyes an emerald color. ""This is Miss Shadow. She will be your new partner."" Shadow bowed her head. ""It is a pleasure to meet you, Patriot."" </div>"

His arms crossing the shield on his back, he turned slightly when the door opened. Looking at the attire, he kept the words to himself she looks sorta like a female version of Loki.

The Director suggested while seating himself at his desk. ""Maybe while you got to know each other, a tour of the building would be a good idea. Shadow will have the same access as you will. But her card won't come in till next week."" Fury really didn't have a mission for the two but with new blood, and a new partnership, it was wise to show one the ropes while getting to know one another. It was one of those things that Fury had come to notice over the years of his line of work as well as those around him.</div>"

Come on I'll show you around, the place is big but once you know what floor is what it's relatively easy to find your way around."" He said it as he walked out of fury's office hitting the elevator, ""patriot access seven which floor?"" A voice went through, standing in a military stance ""fifth.""</div>"

Walking into the elevator and standing next to him, she looked around the elevator, even to figure out where the voice came from. This kind of Technology was something she wasn't use to. But since they were to get to know one another, she decided to ask her first question. ""How long have you worked with SHIELD?""</div>"

""Alright how did you come across what your wearing now?""</div>"

It was from Fury telling them to come to his office ASAP. Shadow picked it up, read the message, then handing it to Patriot. ""It seems we are being summoned."" She stood, waiting to follow the man in red, white, and blue.</div>"

Shadow looked around the room with a cautious look in her eyes. 

""I asked you to come here because I know I can trust you Patriot."" He stood. ""I have come believe that earth is about to be under serious threat from some unknown entity. I dont know who but has to do with the alien attack from 2013. I am asking you and shadow to find this out for me. I can't do much from here. But no one won't suspect you two. This I know.

""I would try and get ahold of any of the heroes journals. They may give you a start as to what we need. However,"" Fury walked over to Patriot and put something in his hand, ""You never got this from me. This too may help. its any information that i could pull from our systems. I'll put you on any mission I can get you too on incase anything we seek may come from those if you are willing. You may even be pulled out of school but that could be taken care of as to the excuse of why. But to make it less suspicious, I'll make sure you attend as much school as possible for the both of you."" Fury explained as he stood infront them both. ""I am counting on you two to keep this as top secret as it can get. Am I understood?"" 

Shadow had listened, surprised that this mission was solely up to them, bring no one into it for Fury didn't know who to trust. It was quite odd for her to be trusted so easily but maybe Fury knew something she did not. Who could say for sure though. For now she would really have to pull her weight in order for this to succeed. ""Yes, sir. I understand.""</div>"

Though Fury was the only one around here to know his identity, so he already knew he had a majority of the hero journals his grips tightened on Fury's hand ""if this will help keep other people safe from this threat I'll try and get as much info on it as I can sir.""</div>"

""That is all. I will let you know when any missions have come up. For now I need to go over some reports. You are free to do as you please. I'm counting on you both."" Fury then sat down in his desk chair and turned on his computer and started turning on the lights. Shadow took this time while the lights were being turned on to exit the room. She seemed to have something on her mind.</div>"

Catching shadows arm, ""you alright? Something seems to be troubling you."" His father had taught him how to read body language and facial features, it came in handy when going to take down any threats that threatened the city.</div>"

She stayed where she stopped. ""Sort of. Its just that. I just arrive her, new to being in a organization and being partnered with someone to be put on an important mission that involves the fate of the planet. And I dont have to prove anything.

I think-"" he got cut off by an explosion looking out the window seeing smoke rising up. Cursing slightly, before looking back at Shadow. ""We need to move now, or whatever that thing was is going to destroy more than that one building."" Running toward the stairs, hoping that Shadow was following. He got to the garage, removing a tarp to reveal and old bike underneath. Revving the engine to life, he took off. Keeping in contact with shadow through the main communicator ear piece.</div>"

She sped off after putting her helmet on and starting g up the cycle. ""What explosion could that have possibly been?"" Shadow asked through the communicator earpiece.</div>"
19225,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-02-26 18:36:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Patriot frowned, turning down a street. Hearing shouts and gunfire getting closer, ""I don't know what could all I know is that we have to stop this before it gets out of control."" Stopping, just to see Furnace. ""Oh hell when did he manage to get out of prison?"" He heard another explosion, but it was a few yards in front of him running up just to see fire heading his way. Jumping to the side rolling and getting back to his feet.

Keeping his eyes on Furnace, he kept running just for fire to hit his shield and stop him in his tracks. ""Oh come on little man that can't be all you have."" Furnaces shout reached his ears, only grunting in response as he was slowly pushed back from the pressure.</div>"

Getting off the bike, with it parked on the other side of a building, she looked out to see the area Furnace and Patriot were squaring off. Smirking, Shadow looked around before she blinked and her eyes shined a brighter emerald color with a gleam of gold. Shadow had whispered something before a Giant Dire wolf had appeared and ran out at furnace, it started to form fire within its mouth. ""Patriot. I want to try and distract him. Maybe finding a highrant and use it against him and what fire is within that exploded building."" She suggested, seeming distracted.</div>"

Shadow was peeking around to find the nearest hydrant so they could weaken him and bind him. Finding one wasn't too much of a problem. Northeast of Patriot's position, Shadow ran to that said hydrant. ""I position, northeast of you. Fenrir will help as best as he can.""</div>"
19229,"New Hero's, old enemies (Jazz and Xion)",IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76301-new-heros-old-enemies-jazz-and-xion,['1x1'],2015-03-25 02:47:00,Xion Demente,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Patriot nodded, ""alright me and fenrir I think you said will lead him toward you.""

Shadow waited for the right time to strike as she had been watching their every move carefully. When she saw Furnace in the right distance, she seemed to be chanting softly where it couldn't exactly be heard but to one with very advanced hearing, it sounded asgardian. The Hydrant turned one its caps loose and started to drench Furance with high pressured water which would send him flying in which Fenrir pursued him so he wouldnt try and escape. Shadow then closed the opening with the same cap. She looked to Patriot with a nod and went to find furnace who went flying in the southwest of their position.</div>"

Frowning slightly, he followed picking up the villain who tried to fight his grip. Though with the super soldier serum running through him his grip was stronger. Making sure furnace was tied up, before he heard the sirens of cops coming toward them.</div>"

She was watching for anyone or anything coming in their direction. Hearing that there was sirens of the cops. Looking in the direction they were coming from, Fenrir had vanished but she then looked to Patriot. ""What do we do? It seems the cops might try to take over the situation."" Shadow stated calmly. ""Should we call SHIELD?"" Shadow honestly wondered what they were to do when cops came when someone from SHIELD takes care of a villian.</div>"

""SHEILDS already on the way shadow. The question is now do you want to leave before the cops show up or no."" He heard a cough looking down at furnace, ""you can't stop what's gonna happen.....you stupid red white and blue..."" Patriot went down on one of his knees, ""and that's what?"" Furnace laughed, ""like I would tell the idiot."" Nick shook his head slightly, before looking up at shadow from his kneeling position.</div>"

Looking at the concrete. As she was thinking, the cough too caught her attention but did not look at furnace as he spoke. Unsure exactly what he was talking about exactly, but had a few guesses, the female caster looked to Patriot as he looked at her. ""I would not understand why we should leave because of the cops so I think we should knock him out and let SHIELD take care of him. I guess we can try to explain things to the authorities if we can."" She stated. But she felt a little uneasy about being around cops. She really had no idea why.</div>"

Upon their arrival, the magic user noted the cops too coming closer than before. ""I believe we may not have to deal with the authorities if SHELD had arrived first."" Though what she was starting to think about what furnace had said. <span class=""bb-i"">'Maybe what Director Fury had told us to the best of his abilities is close as to what furnace was trying to refer to.'</span> She couldn't be sure but would take it up with Patriot when they were alone.</div>"

The dark haired teen straightened at his presence. Hearing how good of a gob they did and that they were dismissed, Shadow nodded before her eyes were moved to Patriot who bid her farewell. ""I too shall see you later."" She said before he had driven off. <br/><br/>Later that day, Shadow had to get a ride from SHIELD to get to her transportation. Which was her car. A 2007 Chevrolet black Comaro with green and gold flames on the sides. She had gotten it for a decent price at a used car dealership but she asked someone she had known and helped to put the paint and designs on it. It ran well and she didnt normally drive it everywhere. But her father had asked to use her motorcycle and so she had to use the car. Shadow drove him of which she was no longer wearing her outfit when she had arrived home. She went upstairs, and had gone to her bed where a German shepard had greeted her and she plopped onto till she was called for dinner or something that needed her attention. </div>"

Pulling off the mask that covered his hair and some of his face nick made his way toward his room. He made sure to keep his footsteps light and make sure he could get to his room without a hassle. Going to his room he started pulling off the suit wincing every now and then cause of the bruises he had gotten, and the fight with furnace had hurt him too.</div>"

Some think she looks like the person that tried to take out Manhattan years back. Desondra was looking about the people who were looking at videos and twitter feeds and so forth about the buzzing news that people were either excited about, hated or were questioning it. But she tried to stay more closed off than she had before. She didn't like people randomly asking for her opinion on it for she didnt want to give an impression that she knew something or taking sides. Des didn't want to do that. But no doubt that in one of her classes that they would have to discuss about it and all that fun stuff. But seemed focused on something.

Before plopping down in his seat. He wasn't quite paying attention though when he was called on to answer he did his best to answer before his thoughts went back to the note.

""I know we are both bothered by what Furnace said last weekend and I have reason believe that it was what Director Fury told us our primary mission. Furnace maybe linked to whoever is threatening the planet. 'What can't stop what's gonna happen? Doesn't that sound like he knows more than he is letting on?""

I am sure I could find a way to sneak us in their prison holds."" Desondra looked toward the gym doors. ""When do you think would be a good time to talk to Fury?"" She asked. She looked a bit edgy though as she still had her eyes still focused on the door. ""Oh crap."" She back away from Nick a little.

When one pulls back the glamour, they would see a sophistication and professionalism of a modern-day corporation (minus the government bailouts due to making the people bankrupt -- ZINGER!). After the head honcho was released from prison and reformed RESCUE, new would-be operators and staff would replace the old. Those who weren't up to snuff. Division 7 was formed by Gentaro ""Miza"" Mizukuzi, a Japanese scientist and engineer. R&amp;D, as its name implies, is responsible for researching and developing new technologies in order to facilitate a more independent organisation that needn't rely on other nations for supplies.

It took a lot of convincing and favours for Mizukuzi to create his own fireteam. He convinced his superiors to let him have his ""pet project"", so long as he operated well out of the way of the public face of RESCUE. Safe to say he has no problems complying with this. He gets a generous amount of funding and playtime with all the latest toys. His operators even get to wear his division's logo, so everyone knows who his ""children"" are. Life for Gentaro Mizukuzi is good.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Geoffrey is perhaps the best example of being too average. Average in height, looks and even his build, he stands out among the rest of his squad simply by virtue of being the only one who can be seen as 'perfectly normal'. The only part of him that stands out is perhaps his hair, which barely touches his brow and collar - the longest Wei Jie would allow. He always wears a pair of ballistic glasses, not out of fashion, but because he requires the lens inserts to counter his short-sightedness.

Sergei Antov strolled into the Elisaveta's Operations Room with his usual air of ""business as usual"".

Dressed in a well tailored and expensive suit, the large Afro-Russian looked every part a first rate lawyer. A Cuban cigar was nestled between two meaty fingers of his right hand, and a wisp of smoke followed its swaying movements. The aroma of tobacco quickly overwhelmed the ship's meagre ventilation system. 

With a smug smirk, he nodded to each of the gathered Team Leaders in turn, who sat around a simple rectangular table made of hardened plastic. Sterile white walls gleaned with the dim light emitted by a singular LED bulb suspended from the ceiling. At the far end of the room, an empty black screen of an eighty inch LCD monitor looked on ominously. Save for the low hum of the Elisaveta's engines, all was perfectly quiet.

The Team Leaders knew not to fuck with Sergei. Beneath his luxury and smugness was a trained and sophisticated killer, the same as they. In the Spetsnaz, he was called, rather unimaginatively, 'The Black Russian', and his ruthless reputation as a leader ran before him.

""The Boss just called,"" he grunted, rather than spoke, in heavily accented english. ""Its a job close to the old man's heart. Somali Pirates have struck the shipping routes again, and as usual, have captured a ship from under the noses of those useless NATO bastards.""

As if activated by thought alone, the monitor at the rear of the room flickered to life. A grainy image of a small brightly coloured cargo ship filled the screen.

""NATO got this close, before abandoning their assistance. As you know, their policy is to let these mongrels have their way, once they're on-board a ship. For the crew, that means an average of three years in some shit hole prison, and a 50/50 rate of survival,"" Sergei grumbled with contempt. ""Pussies, the lot of them. Afraid to dirty their hands, too afraid to take a risk... but luckily, there's always us fools, right?""

The image on the monitor switched to an even grainier depiction of two black shapes at the ship's waterline. ""Glorified rubber dinghys,"" Sergei continued, with a sigh. ""Twelve men apiece. That puts our estimates at 24 hostiles. 20 will be on the ship, with 4 manning the boats, if experience is anything to go by. We've not picked up any radio communications, so we can assume they're stone age warriors. Kalashnikovs, an rpg maybe, and lots of violent threats no doubt.""

The image on the monitor changed again, displaying a sterile set of the ship's schematics. ""She's a small one. A reefer - a refrigerated vessel, used for ferrying valuable perishables quickly. The Odessa, is her name, and she's a simple thing. Two levels, one big ass engine and control room, and a small but crowded deck. We're planning on hitting her with an EMP, at night. Dead in the water with no lights, the bastards wont know what the fuck is happening. That's when we go in, neutralise the hostiles, and secure the crew... oh, and The Boss has expressed that lethal force is a last resort. He wants this clean and bloodless. We haven't got long to do this thing, by tomorrow morning she'll be in Somalia and beyond our reach. You leave in four hours, as soon as the UAV deploys its EMP.""

Sergei dabbed the last of his cigar against the inside his hand; an old habit, established long ago. Discarding the dead butt to the grated floor, he rubbed at the side of his iron-grey hair and released a long sigh. He dug for the inside pocket of his business jacket, and pulled out a tablet. ""We were able to make contact with a crew member, who has been able to keep his satellite phone on him. He wasn't much help in detailing the pirates' order of battle, but he did say he was with 15 members of the crew, and that the captain was being held captive on the bridge. Assuming our insider still has the phone, and that he's still with the other hostages, then we'll find most of them in the fore storage - a meat freezer, effectively."" Sergei fell silent, boring his cold eyes into the Team Leaders as if he was trying to telepathically communicate with them.


""Same shit, different day,"" he chuckled at last. ""Aside from force restriction, the canvas is yours to paint. The ship's company is offering top dollar for this, and so I'm making all of our assets available to you. If it can get to us in four hours, then its yours to use... so what are you guys thinking? Lets hear it.""

He stood with his arms folded, waiting for their response.

It sounded straightforward enough; all they had to do was just storm the ship in force and the shock of the sudden attack might convince the hijackers to lay down their arms and give themselves up. Of course, it was mentioned that lethal force could be used as a last resort, but Wei Jie hoped it did not get to that point. While he had little sympathies for pirates, he was well aware that most of them were poverty-stricken folks looking for an easy way to make money. Not admirable, but Wei Jie could at the very least understand their motivations.

He glanced at the rest of his team as Kingpin and Cobra gave their own suggestions. As he glanced over each of the operatives under his command, Wei Jie could see a slight issue. Not with the mission or planning, but with his team. Out of the five of them, only himself and the Singaporean - Geoffrey - had any tangible experience in boarding operations. The rest were more oriented towards airborne operations.

""Oh joy, a sea operation."" Kazue said drily beneath her breath, voicing Wei Jie's thoughts, albeit in a more sardonic manner.

""We'll make this work somehow."" Geoffrey replied with a shrug. 

""Easy for you to say."" Kazue shot back.

""Enough,"" Wei Jie said, with no small amount of irritation in his voice. Sometimes he could not believe that the people he worked with were actually from special operations forces around the world, what with the way they bickered among themselves. Then again, he supposed that they were used to being afforded a lot more freedom than the regular armies. Still, that was no excuse for them to suddenly start acting like children. ""Any of you have any suggestions?"" Wei Jie asked his team. He would then consolidate, compromise and piece together their individual plans before voicing them to the other teams.

""A helicopter insertion would be good,"" Geoffrey said. ""That way we're all doing something we're comfortable with.""

""Yes, the pirates would not notice the loud, whirring sound rapidly approaching them."" Kazue said, voice dripping with sarcasm. ""Honestly, if we come in on a helo, we would just be giving them an early warning.""

Geoffrey rolled his eyes and was about to say something before another member of the team, Adelaida, cut in. ""Perhaps,"" she began, her voice calm and motherly. Despite being the youngest of the team, Wei Jie often found her to be incredibly helpful in keeping the peace between the more belligerent members, namely Kazue and her favorite target, Geoffrey. ""Perhaps we could insert both via sea and air. We have more than enough people to do so, don't you think so?""

Wei Jie nodded. That sounded like a good plan to him, but then there was one other person who had not voiced his opinion yet. ""Firdaus, what about you?""

The Malay shrugged. ""Adelaida's plan sounds good to me,"" he said. Wei Jie did not expect anything less. Firdaus' expertise lied with fighting in cities and jungles. When it came to air and sea operations, he simply knew how to insert, but had little more to add.

Satisfied, Wei Jie turned to the other teams. ""A purely heliborne insertion would be unwise if we have to keep things bloodless. At night, the pirates can hear us coming miles away and will have time to prepare. We would be surrendering our element of surprise before the operation even begins."" He said and walked slightly forward. ""Perhaps we could have a joint air and sea insertion? Some of us will be dropped via helicopter, but only to act as a distraction while the rest covertly enters the ship via sea. The pirates' attention will no doubt be focused on the heliborne operation, giving the seaborne element the opportunity to free the hostages with minimal trouble.""</div>"

""I hear talk of helicopters, I hear talk of boats, I hear talk of suppressors and snipers, and I hear talk of breaching charges,"" he sneered, his voice dwindling to a low rumble. ""Let me remind you, that the Odessa will be powerless after the EMP - along with any electrical light source that pirates may have in their possession. That goes for the lights mounted on their zodiacs, and any torches they may have. What do you think will happen, if during this sudden outage of power beyond their comprehension, they hear a helicopter approaching?"" 

He sighed, stepped back from the table and folded his arms again. ""17 dead hostages, that's what happens,"" he said. ""The pirates are dumb, they're illiterate and their trade is solely invested in the intimidation of the defenceless. But any dumb goat herd knows when they're fucked, and a helicopter engine will be just the give-away they need to start shooting.""

The monitor at the rear of the room switched from the schematics view, to a local meteorology display. Swirls of vibrant green circled a red dot, titled 'The Odessa'. ""It's going to be cloudy tonight. Approaching from the sea has my backing, but to you whirly-bird lovers, I can see a helicopter featuring in this. Therefore I propose that the Odessa's top deck <span class=""bb-b"">is secured by a single team seaborne insertion</span>, to minimise the chance of the pirates seeing us approach. <span class=""bb-b"">Once the deck is secure, we can move on the bridge and grab the captain - then we'll bring in the helo</span>. Those dogs down on the bottom deck wont know what's happened to their friends. <span class=""bb-b"">The helo can unload the rest of the teams, and you'll be able to divide and conquer the lower deck...</span> and of course, extract the hostages. I'd also advise you think about exploring non-lethal weaponry; things have come a long way since the Battle of the Somme, in that respect.""

Sergei had no real jurisdiction over the Team Leaders; he didn't know their men, or their teams' capabilities. He was there purely as an advisor, but reserved the authority to force through decisions when stalemates occurred. However, he avoided doing this as much as possible, to minimise the chance of creating internal divisions. No one liked some jacked up dick playing King of the Castle, after all. 

""What do you think?"" He asked, regretting that he had to ask the question.</div>"

She was glad that someone else had the sense to see just how poorly suited a helicopter was for the mission. It amazed her that none of the other ex-military personnel in the room had seen the problem earlier, and that made her feel good about herself. What made her feel better was seeing the sheepish look on Geoffrey's face in the corner of her eye. There was something about the exceedingly average Singaporean that just irked her. Maybe it was just so uncanny to find someone so incredibly unremarkable, at least physically wise.

""Non-lethal weapons sound good,"" Firdaus said, suddenly sounding a lot more alive. ""The Beretta LTLX7000 would be just the thing for the job, if we can get our hands on two dozen of them, that is. If not, we can always just use shotguns and fire rubber slugs and buckshot. That'd be enough to bring anyone down without killing them.""

""How enlightening,"" Kazue muttered beneath her breath, quite put off by the Malaysian's sudden enthusiasm. Still, she could not bring herself to make any sort of sarcastic remark; it was rare for Firdaus to have so much to offer to a mission's planning phase, since his specialization in jungle warfare and survival was quite a niche specialization and thus it was very rare for him to have any sort of insight worth sharing. 

Wei Jie nodded in agreement. ""Sounds good. My team's mostly air and heliborne, so we have no problems leaving the seaborne side to Kingpin.""

Kazue grinned internally. Looks like they already had a plan, this could prove to be one of the fastest briefing's she has ever had.

""Wait,"" Geoffrey piped up suddenly. 

""Fuck,"" Kazue muttered beneath her breath and folded her arms. What did the mannequin have to say now? She chuckled inwardly at her impromptu nickname for the Singaporean. He really did feel like a mannequin, as unremarkable as he was.

""You said that we got this information from a hostage with a satellite phone. Is it possible that he has been discovered and the pirates are actively on the look out for an insertion force?"" He asked and walked over to the screen showing the schematics of the ship. Pointing to one of the containers, he continued, ""We will only be on station in a few hours, that's enough time for them to clear out a container and stuff the hostages inside, just to throw us off.""

He paused and turned to face everyone else. ""Do we have a contingency plan for if the hostages are not where they are supposed to be? Or if the pirates spot us before the seaborne element even boards the ship?""

Kazue frowned. Geoffrey did make a good point, though she suspected that if the pirates found out one of the hostages had contacted security forces, there would not be any hostages for them to rescue. ""Geoffrey has got a point,"" she said and crossed her arms. Geoffrey gave her a small smile, probably thanking her for the support, but Kazue ignored it. She disliked the Singaporean, but she was going to give credit where credit was due; he had brought up a valid point.</div>"

Then they either weld in or climb the deck. Meanwhile team 2 inserts using zodiacs and takes out the floaters.

""we have the 4 AFT Storages at the back why not have one team scale the back and cut in with a welder. making this a quick in for the team allowing them to find the hostages and signal the other boat teams to scale to the top and create a distraction. allowing other teams to approach by air after the top is secured and help with extraction""</div>"

Osprey was a reserve team for this operation, and right now, Oskar Wojtkiewicz, or ""Wojtek"", sat in the armory, with the rest of Osprey. He stood by his F2000, wearing a navy blue T-Shirt, and a pair of brown walking trousers, a pair of hardened boots at his feet. The rest of the team was the same, give or take, apart from different shirts. From Czech, to Scot, to Bird, to Thor, they were inspecting weaponry. Wojtek knew he might get breiefed up at some point, and that if they were needed, they could be a spare diving team. He was an expert diver, and the rest of his team was capable of it- or no less, capable of airborne operations. Bird was a former Canadian Paratrooper, and CSOR Jumpmaster, usually being probably one of the most venomous jumpers that Oskar had seen. She could lecture him at length, and while she was only 24, there was a reason it was Sergeant Bird, rather than Private. She had jumped the craziest things, and no doubt, was able to fling herself into the abyss with any load, any equipment, with hardly a panic. Himself, he'd been a Lieutenant in FORMOZA, and Thor was a former Captain. He was probably Oskar's equivelent in the sea, but what always struck Oskar was how good that Thor could keep himself aloft with diving gear AND a parachute. He could land one onto the deck of an oil rig, with intense winds and pouring rain, no pressure. He could do it, but Thor's job in the MJK was basically that, and he could do it, time after time. Wheras Wojtek happened to have a short, well kept stubble, Thor's beard was pretty remakrable, considering that it was almost to that extent of a Blacksmith's. A PMC had it's advantages- no facial hair restrictions, and that was good. Czech, or Pavel, was a fellow Slav, and perhaps a little less weathered, albeit older than Bird. Only a Lance Corporal in the 601st. But he was good, and knew his shit, despite his fresh-faced look. He had seen deep reconnaissance, and could hold his own with a Minimi, as well as parachute jumps. Then there was The Scot, or Scot; who happened to literally be called Scott, to everyone's confusion. That was a real thing to explain, but he could shoot straight, and was a former SBS Corporal. Good level of experience, and a firm head. 

The barrel was back in the F2000, as Wojtek checked the fit, before aligning the bolt correctly.
""You think we're going to get our feet wet any time soon?"" Czech asked, as Wojtek laughed, looking over at Czech's Minimi, on his lap.
""I wouldn't doubt it. They fucking like us."" Wojtek replied, almost rough, as Thor nodded, looking at his own Colt C8.
""Damn right."" He simply added, as he adjusted the Magpul CTR stock on his beloved rifle, the silencer already attached, but no magazine in the weapon.
""And it's the usual pirate stuff here. Low priority. They're thick in the head."" Bird said, the fact that her surname and the colloquial name for a female operator was so hand in hand, it just worked. Bird never found it offensive, even if her female peers did. It was something she accepted, and she was one of the lads. In a way, while they all knew she was feminine, when it came to relying on a teammate, she was as good as any. No doubt. She fixed up her own C79 optic, adjusting the sight picture as she finally got it done, looking to Thor.
""No doubt. Remember the Puntland? That raid? Fuck, that was fun. Those pirates were so fucking scared...."" Thor simply said, chuckling, almost in a crazy way.
""Because you put a CG through the front fucking window of a training camp, and set off that ammunition cache. That was why it was good. Free fucking firework show."" Wojtek simply replied, as the group laughed, the laughter wearing off after about a few seconds ago, as Wojtek shook his head after that.
""But you know there was paperwork like a fucker after that."" Wojtek said, stopping for a pause before he continued.

""Shit happens."" He simply added, getting up, as he took his Mk23 off a work table, slowly checking over the .45 pistol, unscrewing the Osprey Silencer on the end before inspecting the grooves, and getting to work on a maintenance check, disassembling the Mk23.
""If I think they're planning what I think they are, then those teams will have fun. Hostage Rescue. I remember Antov telling me earlier, vaguely about it. He was busy, going to this brief. We've had our share of action, but shit, it'd be good to join them. I prefer sweep and clear. Less civilian fallout. You kill who you kill, don't worry about some fucking news."" Wojtek added to his statement, as Bird nodded, a little in disagreement. You couldn't lie, that Wojtek looked a bit grizzled about it, and Thor was almost the same. They were expendable, any civilian got in the way. They were good at getting a job done, not complications. It wasn't their forte, but come to it, Wojtek knew that HVT rescue was something they could do, and do well. They were all ex-Special Forces, after all, and for good reason.
""Sure...but you got to feel for them. I get paid to not worry about them, but they're innocent."" Bird simply said, as Thor looked over, finished with his C8.
""And as Wojtek said, shit happens. Let's just not worry about it."" Thor spoke, as Scot looked over. He'd been a little quiet, but then again, he was a Marksman. A man of few words, because perhaps bullets did more for him. Usually, Bird would be paired for him as a detachment, working as a spotter/shooter pair, with Bird using her spotting gear to look down range. But Scot knew he wasn't a sniper. He was able to shoot a marksman rifle very well, to around 1,000m with a 7.62mm round, and a 6x optic. That was what he did. Any more, he would more likely hit the moon.
""True. It does. They don't pay me enough to be a reporter, anyway."" Scot simply said, as Wojtek chuckled, looking around as he put the pistol back together, focussing on it yet knowing he could do this blindfolded. It was a quirky thing, but it killed time. Knowing your pistol, as it would be what would know you, he looked over to the group, scattered in the ship's small armory.
""Right. If this is hostage rescue, we tool up differently. They have hostages, but I don't want us to go in non-lethal. Fuck that. We're going in hot, lead blazing. It works every time. I prefer paperwork to knowing my target breathes. I want you, Thor,to grab a M1014 for when shit goes down and we need a breacher, loaded with buckshot and beanbags, instead of your Carl Gustav. Or bad shit will happen. It's tempting, I know. Instead of your L129A1, Scot, I want you to get your MP5SD, and a set of breaching charges. Czech, you go with your CZ805, and I'll keep my regular shit. No grenades, only flash and stun, or smoke grenades if need be. We'll be likely assaulting at night, so Night-Vision Pieces, but remember, they use flashlights. So respond in kind with your own, use the AN/PEQ-15 flashlight for when you need to blind them. Reactions will be slow, no doubt. They'll be very, very weak in comparison. They'll be surprised that we'll have number, and no doubt, will panic. This is bad, unpredictable. But use it to your advantage. Kit wise, we go with night-orientated stuff. Blacks, Ops-Core helmets, no goggles. Flashbangs, Stun grenades, no explosives. We clear?"" Wojtek said, in an almost half-breiefing style, as everyone nodded, busy with their weaponry.
""Good. Nothing too strict here, it's an in-case they yell. No doubt they could, but if they don't, I can tell Antov we were ready to go. And that keeps our paychecks, everyone."" Wojtek said, as he put his pistol back on the table, looking over to the group.

(What chopper is it? I believe Osprey will ride as a attaching force from the helicopter. If it's a Mi-8 or something like that, then cool. I should state- Osprey aren't immediately on this Op, but they'll be riding along in future more. They're a weapons team- in future, they're a little more flexible than the loadouts I gave in their CS, as you saw, but they're generally quite capable as both an airdropped and underwater team.)

The monitor’s image returned to the Odessa’s schematics. Sergei marched around the table, and approached it, picking up a stylus attached to the wall beside the screen. 

“Prophet hits the Aft Deck from the sea, using underwater propulsion vehicles or manned torpedoes – either will get the job done. Cipher dittos this, taking the Fore Deck. Both teams converge on the Bridge, and clear the upper deck entirely of hostiles and hostages. Incase our insider is a trap, we’ll have those containers, the med-bay, messhall and kitchen searched too.

Kingpin arrives in a Zodiac. Fuck the Boss, I want those pirates in the dinghys taken down permanently. Use live ammunition, stab them, I don’t care, but do it quietly. Once they’re gone, prepare to breach the Odessa’s Fore Storage from the outside. Use breach charges, but do not go until given the say so by Cobra.

Cobra comes in with Prophet, but takes the stairs to the Bottom Deck rather than converges on the Bridge. They clear the aft storage rooms one by one, quietly. Then head through the engine room, no doubt the pirates will be banging around down there trying to work out what’s happened to the power. Take them down, with non-lethal means if possible. Cobra will then prepare to breach the Fore Storage from the door. On Cobra’s command, both they and Kingpin breach the room. If a hostage is killed by flying metal or debris, then we’ll bite the bullet and take it. It’s that, or the pirates get a chance to open fire on them.

Whilst all that is going on, Prophet clears the sleeping quarters, whilst Cipher keeps things nice and quiet topside. Last thing we need is a pirate infested trawler to turn up mid-operation and fuck with the extraction.”

Sergei stood back, having decorated the schematics with various coloured lines. He nodded at it with a grunt, and gleaned a toothy smile. “Just like old times,” he chuckled to no one in particular, before turning to the Team Leaders. “That’s the plan, I’m putting my stamp on this one.  We’ll be here til morrow otherwise, working out whether a torpedo can take down an MI-18 in a dogfight. Hop to it ladies and gentlemen, you’ve got four hours to prepare.” 

Turning to Deng, Sergei waved a hand. “Virus is going elsewhere; a nice sunny beach, in fact. Meet me in the armoury, with Osprey Team.”

Sergei’s demeanour as he entered the armoury was a lot less confident than he was up in the Operations Room. Baby sitting hardened killers as they plied their trade was one thing; carrying out a request from The Boss was something else. 

Virus Team filed in behind him, and along with Osprey Team, the expansive armoury suddenly seemed rather small. Sergei waited a few seconds to speak, and did so with a sigh. 

“Sarenkov called me an hour ago. There’s someone he wants dead, despite his um… Christian beliefs. If you can call them that,” Sergei said, pulling out his tablet and holding the screen up. On its display was the image of a dishevelled African man of middle years; his yellow, rotting teeth gleaming white in contrast to his charcoal coloured skin.  A big bushy greying beard surrounded the man’s cracked lips, and a pair of dark eyes peeked out from cavernous sockets. 

“Yalero Khanya,” Sergei said with conviction. “That’s right. I know you’ve all seen that video of The Boss’ daughter. This is the guy that did most the fucking, and most the hacking. We got a tip off three days ago that this prick was still alive and well; retired from the pirate trade of course, and lying low as a third-rate sex trafficker. Figures right?” 

A few taps on the tablet later, and the image changed to a satellite rendering of a remote complex in the Somali desert. “Two clicks inland,” Sergei said, “got himself a nice pad, plenty of guards, and plenty of women. There’s a brothel nearby, where he keeps local girls as young as six. Sarenkov doesn’t like the idea of his man being alive for many reasons, understandably. He also wants, rather insistently, for that brothel not to be there anymore.”

Holding up a hand, Sergei shook his head. “I recommended a drone strike… but The Boss reckons we need to have boots on the ground; that is to say, to make the bad guys know we’re not above going in there ourselves and murdering them in their sleep. If you ask me, he’s making this far too personal, but I can’t say shit. He’s offering each of you an extra 100k for this mission, not because of the risks, but because of the silence required. He can’t have his… minders, knowing he’s sending men off to scratch his itches.” Sergei turned to leave, “you leave in four hours. I don’t care how you get there, I don’t care how you do it. Kill that bastard, and all his bastard men. Let those women know they’re free – I don’t care what happens to them after. Just do what The Boss wants, and get back here when it’s done. This is a black mission, you’re off the grid but you’ve got anything and everything you ask for.”

Wojtek looked up, looking at Sergei. 
""Just what I love. I need a RIB, for my team, and Virus. We'll roll in and get the job done. Walking two K might seem hard. But I have no doubt we can get the job done. We can hit them, with enough fire alright. I'd want to not go direct to that stone wall, and we can pick off anyone outside it with Scot. Bird, I'd want you with him which case- you stock up and fire from 500m away, in a lull, ahead of the main force. My team, Osprey, can line up fire on the compound from afar too- staying out of harm's way, but firing whatever we have. It might be tricky, but there's not a doubt we have the weaponry. Virus could grab the Brothel, and provide overwatch, there's a little elevation that could be perfect for 40mm fire on the building itself. My team can raid, sweep the place, and murder anyone we see after we're done. I'll be happy to simply kick the doors down and kill this fuck."" Wojtek simply said, as he looked over.
""Either that, or a airborne drop. Unlikely, because you give us a deadline of four hours."" Wojtek said, shrugging his shoulders, as Thor somewhat smirked.

""I will have the Gustav ready then. Hurrah. Nothing like headhunting."" Thor simply said, as Wojtek looked over, nodding.
""We'll use that, yes. But not on the building. I don't want to needlessly kill prostitutes if we can help it. But we can blow the stone wall in with it to breach the compound, or alternatively, use grapple hooks to get over it. It could just be a thin fence, in which case, we can just break out the wire cutters. The sat image isn't great, but we can use it."" Wojtek said, looking over.
""This man goes down then. They have a spotlight, and flahshlights on their weapon. But we can snipe the light, and make some noise. Might not even need sound suppressors, if it gives us better ballistics. Stealth isn't entirely an option. Hit and run is, and I know we can do precisely that. Perhaps we'd be best off having Virus getting into a flanking position first, sweeping the Brothel, then Osprey can launch it's attack. Really confuse them"" Wojtek simply said, as he looked to his own team, personally looking at each operator in turn.
""Right, change in plan, Osprey. It's a night raid, gents, and Bird of course. We go should hit the beach at 0100 Hours, it'll take us a while with the RIB to get there. Usual kit, desert pattern, preferably AOR1. NVGs, as standard, use a combination of frags and flashes. We're not up against a significant force, this is a backwater. But if this man has friends, then we're going to be laying down more than just a little fire. Virus, I hope you're alright with that- if you got a suggestion on your flank, or want to perhaps set up something to delay reinforcements, be my guests. Because Osprey's going to kick their fucking heads in."" Wojtek simply said, as Osprey gave a nice hubub, Wojtek looking to Sergei with a certain look, that he had this. They were to kill this man, and Osprey agreed.

(OOC- whatever Virus says in regards to the op, I will basically kink out with you Skyth before they move out, or PM it to me. I want to keep things syncronous with the other one.)

Somewhere off the coast of Somalia
0100 Hours

It was moderately dark, as the moonlight had come fairly low, and revealed fairly little. The RIB was tight, but it fit the two teams, just about. The Rigid Inflated Boat was fairly lightweight, and only had an M249 cradled at the end, which Wojtek had left to Virus to have fun with. Right now, he sat by the driver, Czech, and Thor sat opposite on the rubber side of the boat, with a Boonie Hat, camouflaged distinctly brown. Wojtek himself just wore an Ops Core helmet, with a pair of quad-optic night vision goggles currently over his eyes, whilst Bird wore a simpler black baseball cap, above her CADPAT Desert uniform. Scot wore a Beanie, with a headset attached, and also had a NVG set in his hands, that he was getting set. Czech's MICH helmet and thermal bandit looked like it would cut the job- in general, they were ready for an assault, for crossing off a target, and looked the part. Perhaps not like just one Special Forces unit, but perhaps you could pick out elements of many.

""Wei Jin, you got any last ideas on our movement in? We're all set once we hit the shoreline. It's sparsely populated, we can leave the boat here. Just minimal light signatures, and we'll be alright. I got our waypoints keyed in, you can radio me when need be. Your team ready?"" Wojtek asked, as he turned to the Chinese leader of Virus, a squad almost completely the opposite of Wojtek's squad. Virus was distinctly Eastern, composed of a Chinese, Malay, Singaporean and Phillipino, not to mention Japanese operator. They were very strangely different, and had different capabilities compared to Osprey, that was for sure. Osprey could be a anvil, and Virus was good as a Hammer. They could kick some ass, when the time came to it, and no doubt, they would. 

Checking his own rifle, Wojtek loaded a magazine in, as Bird put a 5.56 PMAG into her C8, slapping the release as she smirked, taking her gloved hand over her NVG set, as she placed it down.
""The green wonder. Damn, it's restrictive sometimes, but I like these quad-optics we got now. They really invested the money well."" She said, the quad-optical set of NVGs that Osprey had perhaps an example that years down the line, investment into NVGs had very well increased in PMCs- and the field of view was far greater, though it was a little more awkward to get used to, as opposed to regular NOD sets. Scot looked over, as he loaded a 20-round 7.62 magazine, marked with a red stripe for a distinctive purpose of the 7.62mm rounds inside the clip, which Scott wanted for greater accuracy- they had a little more ballistic travel and less drop-off, than a regular round would have. He smirked, as he looked to the front, to the rapidly closing shoreline.
""They did. But never rely on technology, I say. We aren't getting EMP'ed, but if the spotlight sees us, we're going to be blind as fucking bats with these sets on. We'll need the light dead, but the moment it goes down..shit hits the fan, and we could be comrpimised"" Scot said, as Wojtek nodded.
""So it'd be a good idea for Virus to get past it, maybe use an irrigation ditch. Stay down, get to the Brothel and flank it out. We're going to be walking anyway, so there's plenty of time to think it through. But I want this target to have a fucking bad wakeup call when we arrive. I read his file. He's a true shithead."" Wojtek added, as Thor nodded.
""Agreed. I might not agree with everything Antov and the Boss say. But he needs to go."" Thor simply said, as he checked the optic for one last time, as Czech cut the engine off, as they moved in.

""20 Seconds."" He simply said, as they drifted in on the strong tide, the RIB being brought ashore by the strong current, as before they knew it, they were on the sandy shore. Jumping out, Wojtek looked around, scanning the area, the AN/PEQ-15 on, as he looked to the rest.
""Lasers on. They've got nothing of the sort to see IR with, they're poor, remember."" Wojtek said bluntly, as Czech recovered his FN Minimi, loading the belt fed GPMG with a 100-Round box of 7.62, sweeping the area.
""Okay. Bird, Scot, you head to the OP, and get us a look. Say when you can take the shot. Virus, your call here. I'd suggest not going all in one direction- if we can secure the Brothel, and create a pincer, they won't have anywhere left to run."" He simply said, as Bird and Scot were moving already on Wojtek's word, the British-Canadian marksman team moving up through a grassy ditch, towards their slightly elevated position out from the site. It was a small abandoned house of sorts that had come up on sat scans, and it would do the trick, no doubt. Wojtek knew that they'd regroup later- but for now, his team was three man strong, and they were going to move about 50m to their right, and set up a fire zone.</div>"

Operation Black Jack, while sounding rather interesting with its need for a non-lethal and quiet solution, was certainly not geared towards what Geoffrey was trained for and what he was comfortable with. He was a sniper, and a rather good one at that, if he could say so himself. Putting a round into a target's head from a mile away with his PGM 338, that he could do. Fight room-to-room on board a ship? That sounded just plain unappealing.

""Well, that was a waste of breath."" Kazue muttered beneath her breath and folded her arms. In the short time Geoffrey had known the Japanese woman, he had found her to be almost trying too hard to be sniping with her words, as if she were actively trying to pick a fight with everyone around her. Geoffrey chalked that up to her small size; she was probably just trying to prevent anyone from looking down on her or doubting her abilities, though how she intended to achieve that with an acidic personality, he did not know.

""Not entirely. At least the Black Jack teams have a plan, yeah?"" Geoffrey offered. As his old platoon commander in the Guards had once put it, 'if you have a plan at the end of a meeting, it doesn't matter how many black eyes or bruised egos there are. It was a good meeting.'

Kazue shrugged, and they both fell silent as Sergei gave the briefing for their new mission.

Geoffrey more or less stopped listening after Sergei mentioned their target's involvement in the infamous Elisaveta video. Back when he was in the Singapore Guards Formation, he and the rest of his section had made the mistake of watching the video while messing around with their phones after a long day of training. It had been like watching a car crash - disgusting, painful but ultimately nigh impossible to pull your eyes away. In fact, his section had half a mind of taking up Sarenkov's offer back then, and would have if they had been less afraid of being court-martialed for desertion.

""He's a dead man walking, that's for sure."" Firdaus commented after the briefing and stuffed his hands into the pocket. ""Anyone else saw the video when it came out?"" He asked and shivered involuntarily. 

Adelaida nodded, but then shook her head. ""God rest Elisaveta's soul, but we have work to do and more people to save."" She said and looked to Wei Jie. ""Should we put together our plan first, or load up?""

""We already know what we will be using,"" Wei Jie said and turned towards Osprey. It appeared as if the other team had already came up with a plan during the briefing and their team leader - Wojtek, if Geoffrey recalled correctly - wasted no time in sharing. The plan sounded rather solid. They had two targets and two teams to take care of it. While Geoffrey would have gladly volunteered to be the one to put a round square between Khanya's eyes, he was quite satisfied with being part of the element to raid the brothel. Going in guns blazing to rescue people never failed to make him feel like a soldier again.

Wei Jie nodded in agreement with Osprey's plan. ""We will send two of our own to recce the brothel."" He said and pointed to the road cutting across the desert, to the north of the compound. ""Geoffrey will be deployed first, along with Kazue. Between the two of them, they can make a temporary outpost to keep an eye on movement in and out of the brothel. I imagine that it would be busy, and not with people who would surrender at the first sign of fighting either.""

That was quite a tall order, as far as Geoffrey was concerned. They were probably going to deploy on the same beach, and it was going to be in absolute darkness. While he was confident of his navigation skills, the more he looked at the map, the more he was convinced that the desert was featureless and thus a navigational nightmare. Still, it was not completely impossible. It would just take him longer than usual to carry out the order. ""Give me co-ordinates and I can be there within twenty minutes of hitting the beach."" He said confidently. Two klicks was nothing compared to the ten kilometer fast march he had to undertake to just earn the title of 'Guard'. 

Wei Jie nodded and looked to the others. ""No objections?"" He asked and waited for exactly two seconds before continuing, ""Then load up and ready yourselves.""

----

That was how, a few hours later, Geoffrey found himself sitting in a boat with both his team and Osprey. At a glance, it would have been easy to tell the difference between the two teams. Osprey looked like they were about ready to just level the compound and call it a day with all their weapons and the various accessories fitted to them. Virus, however, went with a different approach. Where Osprey had a rocket launcher, the heaviest weapon on Virus was Wei Jie's QLB-06 semi-automatic grenade launcher. It was a heavy beast, and it was anyone's guess how he could carry it slung across his back while still carrying a Type 81 light machine gun. Everyone else either carried a simple assault rifle or, in Geoffrey's case, a sniper rifle.

Geoffrey smirked to himself as he recalled how they decided on the name Virus. It suited the method of operation of almost every one of its members. They infiltrated the enemy's territory with minimal fuss, made themselves scarce while pinpointing and exploiting weak spots and when the time came to strike, they made sure it was sudden, crippling or if possible, fatal.

""20 seconds."" He heard Wojtek say.

As soon as the boat hit the beach, Geoffrey was out. He was easily the most lightly equipped member of either team, forgoing the plate carrier the others used in favour of a mesh load bearing vest and ditching the helmet for a boonie hat. His rifle, a PGM 338 with only a variable zoom scope, night optics and anti-mirage band as its only modifications, was slung across his front and an MP5 hung from its sling by his side. He carried a medium-sized rucksack containing everything he was going to need to make himself disappear into the desert, as well as some rudimentary survival equipment. 

Kazue soon joined him on the beach. As the designated engineer of the group, she had to carry her pack of tools and explosives in addition to her standard battle equipment of rifle, plate carrier, helmet and ammunition. She loaded a magazine into her Type 89 assault rifle and cocked it. She nodded to Geoffrey, indicating her ready.

""Move when you're ready,"" Wei Jie said in a low voice. In the dead silence of the night, it might as well have been a shout.

With a nod to their team leader, Geoffrey and Kazue moved off towards their observation post. ""Virus-Four to Osprey sniper. We are moving to our OP."" Kazue reported in a quiet voice over her headset. ""Let us do a bit of recon before you start shooting things up. Out.""

It did not take long for them to reach their post - the two klick estimate had obviously been from the beach to the compound itself. Geoffrey looked out at the pinpricks of light in the distance and guessed that they were maybe five or six hundred meters away, but no more than that. It was a lot closer than he was used to, but it was probably for the best. With such a high chance of collateral damage and civilian casualties, he wanted his shots to be as accurate as possible.

""Outpost my ass,"" Kazue said as she looked around them and tapped her foot on the ground. ""Ground is hard, we won't be able to dig a scrape worth digging in time."" She looked out across the road. ""I see a small ditch, we could probably use that as cover.""

Geoffrey shrugged. ""Better than nothing. Let's go.""

They dashed across the road and did not stop until they reached the ditch. It was, as Kazue said, small, but it could at least fit the two of them and with a few hacks of Kazue's entrenching tool, they managed to make it possible for them to poke their rifles out without increasing the risk of being spotted. To conceal them even further, Geoffrey took out a large net with brown strips of cloth stitched to it and laid it over the ditch, securing it down with rocks he found around them. He sprinkled a few handfuls of sand over the net to complete the illusion. It was sub-par and far from satisfactory, but in such low-light conditions, it would do.

He slipped back into the makeshift scrape and shouldered his rifle, peering through his scope and aiming towards the brothel. Beside him, Kazue took out a pair of binoculars and scanned the area in front of them. ""Virus-Three and Four in position."" Geoffrey reported and adjusted his scope. ""Eyes on the brothel. I can see lots of movement inside and cars parked outside. We could have a lot more people than we expected. Osprey snipers, can you confirm?""</div>"

Bipod down, Scot looked down the optic, looking at the beam of light searching around, with the wire fence nothing that could be in their way.
""Got you, Virus Three. We've got a wire fence, I got eyes on our increased contacts. Two more technicals. Shit. I ping at least five to seven more people than we expected. I'm good to take a shot from here, minimal wind, it's about 2m/s north, little correction needed. It seems like this fucker's got an event on."" Scot said, as he adjusted his beanie, Bird wearing her baseball cap backwards as to not get in the way of her NVG set, as she engaged her IR pointer on the target, her C8 raised. The rooftop had a corregated iron composition, and a few spare panels on the top of it, completely rusted. The Osprey Marksman team had dragged a part of it over, and it meant that they were effectively covered, on the shack-like structure, looking natural in low light conditions. The team only wore their regular desert camoflage- with Bird's CADPAT Desert, and Scot's AOR1 not perhaps being a sniper's ettiquette, but being useful for the marksman team at this point. It gave them adaptability, no doubt, and was lighter than a ghillie. They weren't snipers- Bird was merely there to spot targets, and keep an overwatch, knowing well that she'd be off the mark in accuracy compared to Scot.

Wojtek, Czech and Thor were moving with pace, following them up from the North-East, going past the house, IR strobes on their shoulders. They wore fairly standardized Special Forces kit, being moreover for the three an AOR1 camoflaged BDU, a plate carrier and vest, as well as general acessories such as GPSes, pouches, as well as aptly camoflaged Predator 45 rucksacks- British Army kit, that did more than enough of the job out here. They moved along a small, shallow dried up stream bed, moving past some dead reeds as they moved up to a form-up position. It was 150m across, and that was right to the front door. It would be hard to get in, but no doubt, this was a start.
""Thor, get Carly Boy ready. Careful with the backblast- check your six before you fire, or we'll have a repeat of Mali. We're going to need him to blow up one of those vehicles if need be, once Virus is ready. Czech, you set up the MG, bipod down here. Me and Thor will be the movers, and we'll need to lob smoke across to then cover this. Cause as much anarchy as possible. After all, fucking Wei has a grenade launcher, of all things. He doesn't give a fuck."" Wojtek said, chuckling, looking to Czech.
""Crazy Chinese. They train their soldiers with a different mentality to us...but if it gets the job done, it ain't stupid. So where's your grenade launcher, Czech?"" Wojtek said, jokingly, as Czech turned to him.
""I've carried part of a Mark 19, and fuck that, thanks. There are big strongmen who can do that if they want. I'm a fucking machinegunner, not a fucking beast of burden."" He said, as Wojtek chuckled, aware that this was just a lull. The dried streambed was a good position to move from, as Wojtek observed, looking in.
""Virus, Osprey Actual and assault team is ready to move. Let me know once you hit the brothel. It's on your word- we shoot the light, make some noise when you feel like it."" Wojtek simply said over the radio, as he aimed down the magnified Holographic sight, looking at the contacts moving around. He could see the Bofors was unmanned, but close to a set of chatting guards, around a fire, that was put up in the middle of the fenced-off compound. They wouldn't hit the main compound, but rather, go towards the fence, and the explosion would undoubtedly blow part of it down. Otherwise, just breaking out the wire cutters was an option, or clambering over, with cover. It would be tricky, but it was a minor obstruction- something they could deal with, no matter. There was a hubub in his house, and while the spotlight wasn't in their direct view, Wojtek knew they had to play it safe, for now at least. When Virus was ready, he could give the word, and the marksman team would unleash hell, killing the spotlight and the guards that were elevated. Then decimating the people in the open, and hell would raise on from the Carl Gustav.

We are almost in position. Out."" Firdaus said quietly into his microphone as he crept slowly towards the brothel. For the past half-an-hour, the other three members of Virus had quick-marched themselves to a prime flanking position on the building's southern side. It took a far longer time than a direct assault and involved a lot more leopard crawling than Firdaus liked, but as he looked at the lightly defended building, he had to admit, it was definitely worth the effort. As Wei Jie had predicted, guards on the outside were minimal, just two half-asleep men on chairs, their AKs leaning against the wall beside them. After all, Khanya was probably not worried about who got in, but rather who got out.

He inched his way forward; they were now just fifty meters away from the brothel. Looking back, he did a final check to make sure that Adelaida and Wei Jie were following behind him before continuing onward, slowly crawling towards the two guards by the door and taking care not to make any sound. Firdaus doubted that the guards could see them, as tired as they appeared to be. The desert version of the Japanese Jeitai camouflage pattern worked quite well in the Somali desert and - Firdaus made a note to thank Allah specifically for this blessing on Friday - it was a cloudy, moonless night.

""Adelaida, Firdaus, the guards are yours."" Wei Jie's muted voice came over his headset. Nodding to no one in particular, Firdaus slowly pushed his primary weapon, a 552 commando outfitted with a simple red dot sight, foregrip and laser targeter, to his back, beside the Remington 870 that was his breaching tool. He drew the silenced QSW-06 from his thigh holster and slowly continued moving forward. While everyone on the team stuck with whatever weapon they had used in their respective armed forces, the QSW-06 was the only weapon that Wei Jie insisted on being standard, and with good reason. Fitted with a silencer and firing a specialized subsonic round, it was as close to a truly silent weapon as they could get.

""Understood. Firdaus, wait up."" Adelaida said, thought Firdaus wished she had chosen a better time. He was now barely twenty meters from the guards and was probably a sharp breath away from being detected.

""Virus-Three to assault element, you're still in the clear."" Geoffrey's voice came over their headset. ""The two sleepyheads are your only opposition so far, but I would not make too much noise. I can see armed men in the brothel through the windows. Looks like Khanya's throwing some kind of party.""

""Not the good kind, I imagine."" Firdaus muttered darkly, just as Adelaida pulled up alongside him. Wei Jie still lagged behind, but Firdaus could understand why. After all, he was the one lugging the nine-kilo grenade launcher. Firdaus smirked as he recalled the first time he saw the Chinaman slinging that beast across his back. At first, the Malaysian had thought that it was something Wei Jie had been taught during his time with the PLA, but upon asking, Wei Jie had rather sheepishly explained that he just liked the launcher. It was by no means a bad thing. The QLB-06 - or 'nine kilograms of fuck you and everything you stand for' as Geoffrey eloquently called it - proved to be incredibly useful for anything between taking out lightly armoured vehicles to knocking down troublesome walls.

""In position,"" Adelaida reported. ""Left or right?"" She whispered.

""Take caution, searchlight swiveling."" Geoffrey warned.

Fridaus grimaced. ""Left, and let's do it fast."" He said and took aim at his target with his pistol. With a nod to Adelaida, the two of them fired almost simultaneously, their weapons barely making a sound as the bullet left the muzzle. The two guards jerked slightly, as if they had awoken with a start, then slumped in their seats, completely still. ""Wei Jie, rendezvous at the southern wall, searchlight is coming for us."" 

""Understood. With all the noise they're making inside, I'd say we can make a run for it. I doubt they're paying any attention to what's going on outside, anyway."" Came the section leader's response. Given the green light, Firdaus and Adelaida quickly got to their feet and made a mad dash for the wall, taking cover behind it just as the searchlight swept over their previous position. With his heart in his throat, Firdaus prayed hard that the searchlight operators would not notice that the two guards were now dead instead of sleeping. A second later, Wei Jie slid into position beside Adelaida.

""Two techinicals,"" Firdaus said and peeked around the corner. ""I think we can take the both of them out with a single charge.""

Wei Jie nodded. ""Good plan. Wait for the searchlight to pass. Adelaida, take a look around the building and find us an alternate method of entry. I don't want to blast through a wall without knowing who or what's behind it and I don't like the idea of kicking down the front door either.""

""Understood,"" Adelaida replied with a nodded and, sticking to the wall, skulked around the corner behind them with her G36K up and at the ready.

""Searchlight is moving...Moving...Still moving..."" Geoffrey said and, as if for comedic effect, yawned. 

""Glad to see the effort you're putting into this,"" Firdaus said with a smirk.

""I know, right?"" Geoffrey replied and Firdaus swore he could hear the mischievous grin in his voice. A second later, the sniper continued, ""All clear. Make any moves you need. I'll continue providing overwatch.""

Wei Jie nodded and tapped Firdaus on the shoulder, giving him the go signal to make his move. Without hesitating, the Malaysian dashed from cover and slid into position beside the nearest technical. He took out a small block of plastic explosive from one of the pouches attached to his belt - while Kazue carried all the larger block charges and detonating cord, Firdaus liked to carry small charges in case he ran into uncooperative walls - and unceremoniously placed it under the vehicle, directly underneath the oil sump.

He took out the detonator and making a quick check to make sure it was in test mode, pressed the button. A green LED lit up on the device, telling him that it was armed and ready to go. Satisfied, he ran back to the wall, taking behind the corner and in front of Wei Jie. ""Armed and ready. I placed enough explosives to kill four technicals. These pirates are going to have one hell of a fireworks show."" He said with a grin on his face. He could barely contain his excitement at things finally starting to kick off. 

Adelaida reported back soon after. ""There's a small extension on the eastern wall. From what I can see through the tiny window, it looks like a storeroom. Regardless, it's a place with no one.""

""Then that's our point of entry."" Wei Jie said firmly. ""Move out and assume two-man breaching person. Adelaida, you will be the point woman for this breach. Firdaus, set a timed charge and give it ten seconds. I want Osprey and Geoffrey to attack at the same time. Once the wall is blown, detonate your charge and kill the technicals. Hopefully all that chaos would be enough to stun the bastards inside to give us time to kill them without too much resistance. I want the brothel cleared quickly so we can cover Osprey for their assault on the main compound. All clear?""

""Got it,"" Firdaus and Adelaida replied one after the other and quickly moved to the eastern wall and adopted their positions. Wei Jie stood on the right with Adelaida roughly half a meter away and opposite him.

""Virus Actual to Osprey. We are setting up our assault on the brothel."" Wei Jie said as Firdaus fiddled with the timer on the charge. ""Twenty seconds until it all goes loud, so pick your targets. We have the technicals covered, so you can save your rocket for something else. Geoffrey, do you have-""

""We have our target,"" came a terse reply from Kazue. Wei Jie took that as a sign that his sniper was already concentrating on his target and was ready to shoot at any moment, otherwise he would have replied personally. ""Osprey, we will be taking out one of the guards by the bofors. Take the other if you want, or you can leave it to us.""

Firdaus placed the charge on the wall and quickly took up position behind Adelaida. ""Ten seconds,"" He said over his headset. In a joking tone, he added, ""Hey, Osprey, mind keeping Khanya alive long enough for us to see him? I think Virus has got some words for him.""

""Target acquired,"" came Geoffrey's cool voice over the radio, and that quickly put an end to any light conversation.

Firdaus mentally counted down the remaining seconds. Five more to go.

""Minimal wind, distance four-fifty meters. Ready to fire."" The sniper reported, probably trying to help co-ordinate the teams with the countdown that followed. ""Three...Two...One...Sending.""

And then, all hell broke loose.</div>"

Bird and Scot looked on, as Scot aimed his rifle to the spotlight, aware he wanted it dead.
""Virus, this is Osprey Marksman. We've got the light, then anything that moves in the compound. We fire on your go."" Scot said, as he looked down the ACOG, the 6X optic magnifying sufficiently. He heard Virus call out the timing, as he readied his shot. The noise of Virus's shot was enough to trigger Scot to fire, and that smashed the light to pieces, the lens broken apart into shards, as the 7.62x51mm round pieced it, and hit the bulb within, taking it out of action. The guards were confused, but from Osprey's perspective, this wasn't all hell breaking loose. This was controlled chaos to Wojtek, and this was where they got moving.

Czech opened up with the FN Minimi, the modified 7.62mm caliber that it accomodated tearing apart infantry on the northern wall, taking them out as the smokes opened up, and Wojtek looked to Thor, giving a certain nod as both operators were over the enfilade and moving through the blooming smoke, weapons raised as they moved to the wall. Part of it had been knocked down by the fire, the weak chainlink scattered apart, as Thor kicked it down, the sight of a militant confused by the smoke grenade receiving a shot from Wojtek's F2000, right in the temple of his head.
""It's on now! Czech, cancel your fire, move to the fence- Scot, Bird, watch the roof for RPGs!"" Wojtek called out, as Wojtek moved forward, aware that the technicals were on the other side of the compound. There were contacts concentrated, as Wojtek slid behind a pair of oil barrels, used for heating, as Thor formed up behind a metal cistern of sorts. Wojtek sent a 40mm round over the technicals, and decimated a pair of enemies there, before leaving it to Virus to deal with. Czech was with the team now, and movement was rapid. The clack of the L129A1, emptying enemies that moved onto the roof, was systematic and beautiful, as a man fell off the roof, in a carnage-fueled manner. Wojtek moved slow, as he nodded to the two men by him, as they hustled forwards. Checking the rifle, he moved to the wall of the building, weapon raised as he peeked around. Fire laced it, as Thor already had a M67 prepared, and lobbed it around, the resulting bang sending dust and dirt up, as well as fragments of the side of the building, as Thor pushed around first, his Colt C8 raised as he moved to the door.
""Give them room service, Thor. No chances."" Wojtek said, as Thor nodded, the breacher of the assault team slapping out a doorknob charge, shoving it onto the handle of the door as a flashlight shined through, with AKM fire bursting the door a little, as Wojtek counted how many bullets were being fired. He had spent 20 rounds, and he was scared now, whoever was on the other end. Thor gave a thumbs up through his Mechanix glove, as Wojtek did the exact same back to him.

The door blew itself off almost entirely, as Thor went left, and Czech went right, taking the man down and shooting two men that were at the back of the living room, by an old CRT TV, with clean shots.
""We breathing?"" Wojtek asking, as they moved through, the darkness being illuminated by flashlights as Wojtek and Thor found cover behind a wall, aware that it was intensely blinding.
""Czech's up."" Czech said, as Wojtek saw Thor look intact. He needed no response really, as he put his NVGs up, grabbing a tube from his plate carrier.
""Standby, Virus, we're popping a flare inside. They're using flashlights intensely, so I suggest we level it. NODs up."" Wojtek said, as he popped the red flare, lobbing it through as fire went off, the fact that there were people around the corner now as clear it could be. Wojtek raised his F2000, and peeked the bullpup weapon around the corner, opening up as he emptied the magazine on the man, the paranoia and darkness having them completely by sudden.
""Thor, go first. Osprey Marksman, watch fire on the building."" Wojtek said, as they moved slowly up the stairs, a door right at the top.
""Could be booby-trapped. Scot, what do you see inside?"" Wojtek asked, as Thor kept point, not touching or approaching the door.
""They're aiming at the door. We have positive identifiaction on Yalero Khanya, and two accomplices, armed with handguns. HVT is armed with a Kalashnkov, 7.62mm spec AKM. He's wearing a turban, and dark clothing. Wait...hang on, he's got a girl wrapped in his arms. Holding her hostage. Shit."" Scot said, as he watched the target, the thin window that he managed to just pick out the target from being the HVT's bedroom.
""You have a green light to take the shot when ready on the target of opportunity. I repeat, green light. There's nothing we can do about collateral."" Wojtek said, as Scot jumped in.
""Wojtek, are you sure?""
""No buts, Scot. Do it."" He said, as Wojtek let Thor prep a flashbang, aware that this was going to be messy above all else.

Khanya yelled to his men for the last time, as the bullet piereced the window, slamming into Khanya's chest, and exiting into the 12 year old girl he had hostage, entering her shoulder and leaving just below her heart. They both fell on the floor, as the other two shot the door, before it was kicked in. The flashbang entered, and the team kept their heads down, as it whitened the room, the sound of gunfire following. Thor fired on the man on the left, whilst Wojtek took out the man on the right, as Thor fell back a little just as he headed up.
""Shit! Fucking 9mm in my vest."" Thor said, almost chuckling as he felt good to be alive, Czech catching him from going back down the stairs. The little girl had taken a shot, it didn't look critical- most of the energy had been spent, but Wojtek knew what had to be done, had to be done. Khanya moaned, as Wojtek lowered his F2000, rolling the HVT over with his foot.
""You bastard."" He said, as Khanya held the wound, in agony from the shot. No doubt he'd bleed out, but he wanted this to be solved. He withdrew his Mk23, crouching down, as he looked out the window. Virus was working on the brothel, but all hostiles in the immediate area of the compound were now dead. They had time.
""This is personal, shithead. It's for Elisaveta. A woman you tortured and murdered. You kill innocent little girls, and rape them. There's a special ring of hell for you."" He said, coldly, almost remorslessly. Wojtek was bitter, and didn't give a fuck at this point in time. He poked the barrel of the .45 cal weapon against Khanya's head, before he pulled the trigger. It was bloody, but it was done. He felt good, and kicked the man once more, as Thor looked to his team leader, almost a little wanting to stop him. But he had his reasons, and Thor knew that more than anyone could. Sarkov had lost his girl to this monster, and now, perhaps Wojtek had enacted precisely what the big man would say. 

""Antov, this is Osprey. We have the HVT struck off. Repeat, HVT is eliminated."" Wojtek said, looking out the window, a new magazine in his weapon, as Thor coughed, chuckling as he adjusted his Boonie, looking over to Osprey's marksman team, on the building in the distance. If you looked carefully, you could see them, just about. The flare below was dying, and Thor put his NVGs down again, as he reloaded himself, dusting off the shot that had thankfully not gone through his vest.
""Virus, it's done. We're going to head back to the RIB. Back to the ship, for re-tasking. We've left enough blood as it is. Free the girls, and let's be gone."" Wojtek simply said, as he turned to Czech and Thor, the young 601st Operator and the grizzled, blacksmith's beard toting Norwegian looking to Wojtek with a certain look.
""It's people like that who make the world a bad place to live in. The Greater Good just won. Now feel good about that."" Wojtek said, almost not wanting to think about this anymore. He just wanted to go, as he heard Scot radio in.
""Wojtek, what orders we got?"" Scot asked, as Wojtek headed down the stairs, sweeping the area, as he put his hand back to his headset.
""Cover our exit. We're going. Watch the roads. Same goes for Virus. We'll use your OP as a fallback, then we'll hoof it."" Wojtek simply added, as Osprey's Assault contingent left the house, then the compound.</div>"

After they were dismissed Azriel left the meeting room and met with his team in the armory. ""Alright team listen up, the big guy wants us taking the ship with non-lethals, that means Prophet-Two you're going in with rubber rounds in the shotty and taking point. The rest of us are carrying tasers and non-lethal grenades flashbangs and sting grenades are a must and don't forget the flexi-cuffs. These bad guys come out alive any questions?"" He said, and his team responded in unison. ""No sir."" Azriel just nodded ""Mount up we are going under."" With that the team loaded their gear and got set in about 20 minutes the team was in wet gear and hitting the water. 

The team sans Prophet-Four moved quietly through the waves, the only sound they heard was the low <span class=""bb-i"">whir</span> of the diving vehicles rudders. They stopped their vehicles right under where they were supposed to climb up. Quietly they climbed into the boat and went to work pulling their gear out of cases that kept them dry and Azriel keyed his mic opening a channel to the Blackjack teams. ""This is Prophet-Lead we are on deck proceeding to clear, out."" He turned and tapped Ashley on her shoulder and whispered. ""Get moving P-two."" She nodded and started moving toward the medbay, they were out in the open when one of the pirates swung out of the small goods room a stolen hoo-ah bar in hand. The pirate looked at the team and was about to shout an alarm but didn't have the time before Prophet-One cleared the distance and struck him right in the throat his call for help only came out as a raspy gasp barely audible by Azriel who stood only a few feet away, One then proceeded to take the legs out from under the pirate and take him to the deck and then with a quick strike knocked him out, they cuffed the man up and dragged him off back into the aft-deck. And continued with the operation.

Their first room entry was the med-bay, they came in and surprised a few guards who barely had time to reach for their weapons before one was hit by a rubber round and another by a taser fired by Azriel, they were cuffed and piled together. When the team checked beds they found one of the hostages in bad shape, she was suffering from something and the team didn't have the time to check what Azriel got on the comms. ""This is Prophet-lead to Kingpin, we got one of the hostages in the medbay shes in rough shape can you roll around in the zodiac and we'll uhh lower her to you. How copy?""</div>"

Without waiting for the smoke and debris to settle, Adelaida pivoted on her leading foot and rushed into the brothel through the improvised entrance. The first pirate she laid eyes on took three rounds from her G36K and his buddy beside him was quickly eliminated by a burst from Wei Jie's Type 81. They had caught the enemy with their pants down - some of them quite literally. They had obviously not expected such a sudden and explosive assault, and most of them were still in the midst of pulling their pants up or grabbing their rifles when they were dropped.

""Move!"" Wei Jie shouted to a group of incredibly frightened women as he moved up the right. The brothel looked quite standard for an illegal operation using enforced labour. It was squarish, with a single corridor running down the center of the building and doors leading off to individual rooms along the side. The area the team had breached was probably a storeroom where necessities were stored, and the room after that looked to be a area for the women to rest, though from the looks of it, that was not what it was in fact used for.

Adelaida felt a shiver go down her spine as she made the quick observation. Human trafficking was rife in the Philippines - and most of South-East Asia, for that matter - and such brothels were almost as common as a mosquito. From the corner of her eye, she could tell that Firdaus was also quite put off by the mere existence of the brothel. He barely showed any emotion as he kicked a pirate pleading for his life to the ground fired into his head at point-blank range. 

""Room cleared,"" Firdaus reported and moved towards the corridor, taking cover on the left side of the entrance. Adelaida was about to move up to take up position on the other side when one of the doors opened and a pirate jumped out, firing wildly from the hip with his AK. Bullets struck the ground, the walls and the ceiling, but Adelaida and Wei Jie managed to get out of the line of fire before the pirate could get lucky.

Firdaus leaned out of cover and opened fire on the pirate. At such a close range and such tight quarters, the pirate was struck by almost every pellet contained in the shell. He let out a final yell of intense pain and dropped his AK before falling back onto the ground. ""Clear every room!"" Wei Jie ordered. Turning back to the women, he said, ""All of you, stay here until we're done.""

While Adelaida knew he meant well, wanting to keep them well away from the fighting, she could almost feel the women behind them tensing up at his words. No doubt they were used to such rough and commanding tones being accompanied by plenty of violence, both physical and mental. With a gentle smile, she looked to the youngest of the women - a terrified girl who could not be older than ten - and said in a motherly voice, ""Don't worry. You'll all be safe and home soon, I promise.""

She did not know whether they could even understand her, but that seemed to put at least some of them at ease, so she shifted her attention back to the corridor. Wei Jie and Firdaus had already cleared the first two rooms, which were thankfully empty and had moved on to the third and fourth respectively. Automatically, Adelaida made her way to the third door on the left side of the corridor. She licked her lips and let out a sharp breath to steady herself before kicking the flimsy wooden door down and aiming her rifle at whoever was inside.

There was a pirate inside, but his pistol was not aimed at her. Rather, he had his arm wrapped tightly around the neck of a woman and the muzzle of his pistol pressed against her temple. Adelaida clenched her jaw and took aim at the pirate, but he was smart - he kept most of his person hidden behind his hostage and all Adelaida could see down her sights were the pleading, teary eyes of the hostage. ""Move and I shoot."" The pirate said, though his subsequent gulp gave away his fear.

Adelaida narrowed her eyes, wondering how she was going to go about solving this problem, but then she soon noticed the pirate's mistake.

He was standing directly in front of a window.

""Adelaida, I need him to turn."" Geoffrey's voice came over her headset, as if on cue.

""Calm down,"" Adelaida said and lowered his rifle. ""Just let the girl go and you can keep your life."" She did not take her eyes off the pirate at any point in time as she slowly but surely side-stepped to the left. It was risky - the pirate could be so nervous that he would pull the trigger the minute he detected the movement, but it had to be done. There was no way Geoffrey was going to be able to put a round through the pirate without killing the hostage in their current position. ""You're young. Maybe you just made a mistake. It happens."" Adelaida said calmly and continued shifting to the side. ""We can help you.""

Then, the pirate made the fatal error of turning ever so slightly to his right to face Adelaida. Geoffrey wasted no time and almost immediately a bullet came crashing through the window and entered the head of the pirate. The resulting exit wound splashed the wall next to the door with his brains and parts of his shattered skull. The woman screamed and dropped to a squatting position, her eyes shut tight and hands over her ears. Adelaida rushed to her side and knelt, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder. ""Shh,"" She shushed the crying woman. ""You're safe now.""

Slowly, she removed the woman's hands from her ears and looked at her face. Her eyes were red from crying, but apart from a few scrapes and bruises, she appeared unharmed. <span class=""bb-i"">At least physically.</span> Adelaida added to herself with a slight frown. She gently helped the woman get to her feet and pointed out the door. ""The others are outside. Go join them and I promise you, we will help you get out of here."" 

The woman nodded and ran out of the room as if it was infected by the plague. Adelaida could not blame her. Looking at the old and stained mattress on the floor, the depressingly bare earthen walls and single, flickering light bulb hanging from the ceiling, the room looked rather sinister, as if it came straight out of a horror film. She quickly made her way out of the room and rejoined Wei Jie and Firdaus, who had both finished clearing the rest of the rooms.

""Virus to Osprey, brothel is cleared."" Wei Jie reported. ""Seven pirates KIA, twelve civilian prisoners freed.""

The three of them made their way to the back room where the women were. Wei Jie looked over them and let out a frustrated sigh. While Sergei had said that they simply had to free the women, that was not how Virus operated. Everyone on the team, especially Adelaida, Firdaus and Geoffrey, knew that just letting them loose would be akin to killing them. Unarmed, with no supplies and no idea where they were, they would barely last two days, let along long enough to make it back to civilization.

""Too many of them to bring with us,"" Firdaus said with a grimace. Osprey would probably have objected to the original, unvoiced plan, but Adelaida was quite confident that Wei Jie would have been able to make them see reason if there were a reasonable number of prisoners. Twelve was in no way within that range. ""And it's almost a week's march to the nearest city, and that is at the standard GGK pace.""

Wei Jie nodded in agreement, then took out his satellite phone and GPS. He knelt down, intending to pass it to one of the women, but she shrank back from him and kept her eyes glued to the floor.

Adelaida shook her head and said, ""Here, let me."" She said and took out the same devices from her pockets. She knelt and slowly extended her hand with the items towards the women and nodded her head slightly, all the while keeping a friendly expression on her face. She made sure her rifle was slung at her side and hidden from view as much as possible - no doubt the prisoners all grew to associate the sight of an armed person with whatever trauma they had suffered. ""Use this to call for help."" She said and held up the phone. ""Use this to find your way home."" She continued, holding up the GPS.

After a few tense seconds of silence, one of the women gingerly reached out and took the two devices. ""T-Thank you,"" She said in a small voice.

Adelaida kept her surprise at any one of them speaking English to herself and stood up. Firdaus gave her a thumbs up and Wei Jie merely gave her a nod of approval with his arms folded. ""I'll never understand how you do that."" He said with a slight shake of his head.

The Filipino laughed softly. Wei Jie was about as gentle as a rock to the face, and his face looked as if it had been carved from a rock, so it was no wonder that the women were not as receptive to him as he had hoped. ""Oh, don't worry."" Adelaida said as the three of them made their way to the main entrance of the brothel. Through their headsets, they could hear Osprey giving them the meetup point. ""You'll get it one day.""

""Maybe,"" Wei Jie said with a shrug. Pressing down on his push-to-talk button, he said, ""Virus-Three and Four, we are on the way to your position, please acknowledge.""

His response was dead silence. Not even static could be heard.

Frowning, Wei Jie tried again. ""Virus-Three and Four, do you copy?""

Once again, he received no reply.

""Shit,"" Wei Jie muttered. ""Something must have happened. Firdaus inform Osprey-"" 

He was interrupted by a burst of static in his earpiece, followed by the hush voice of Kazue. ""Had to go radio silent. Three technicals just drove past us and we barely avoided detection. Estimate around twenty possible hostiles converging on your position.""

Suddenly, the relaxed, post-mission mood came to a grinding halt as the news sunk in. ""twenty?"" Wei Jie repeated in a whisper.

""They must have heard the commotion, or they were intending to use the brothel."" Adelaida suggested, but half-heartedly. It was useless to guess the intent of the pirates. All that mattered was that they were on the way and they had to either bug out as quickly as possible or set up a defensive perimeter and prepare for one hell of a fight. twenty untrained fighters were still forty guns firing countless bullets in your general direction.

""Virus to Osprey!"" Wei Jie called out urgently as he gestured for his team to double it to the compound. ""Virus-Three and Four reports that we have twenty possible hostiles converging on our position. ETA two minutes, recommend we dig in and prepare to push them back! We are approaching the compound and will take up positions on the roof.""

Without waiting for a reply, Wei Jie led his team into the compound, into the building and up a series of stairs that led them out onto the flat rooftop. It offered them a good view of the road. Even from such a distance, Adelaida could see the clouds of dust kicked up by the fast moving technicals. It would not be long before they were close enough to realize that something was wrong. 

""Adelaida, take the LMG. Firdaus, you're my assistant on the QLB."" Wei Jie said quickly and removed the grenade launcher from his back. He unfolded the built-in bipod and placed it on the roof, it's muzzle facing the road. Then, he passed his Type 81 to Adelaida. It was a lot heavier than the G36K that she was used to, but she felt a strange sense of impatience to use the weapon. It looked interesting to say the least, as if someone had taken an old SKS and given it a makeover to become a pseudo-RPK.

Wei Jie adopted a prone position and took aim with the launcher. Firdaus knelt beside him and laid out the two extra magazines for the launcher he had been carrying on the ground. Adelaida took up position a good two meters away from the two of them, deploying the bipod of the machine gun and lying prone with her eyes glued to the road. The last of the technicals had just cleared the turn and was now heading straight for the compound.

""Virus-Three has no shot. Repositioning."" Came Geoffrey's voice over the headset.

""Target in sight."" Wei Jie said quietly and clicked off the safety of the launcher. There was a tense silence as he waited for the vehicles to get closer. ""Firing.""

The grenade left the muzzle with a dull thumping sound and silently arced through the air. The thirty-five millimeter high-explosive, dual purpose shell arced silently through the air for almost two seconds before striking the leading vehicle square in the hood. The resulting explosion illuminated the desert with a burning orange glow for a split second. ""Open fire!""</div>"

""Virus, this is Osprey Actual...hold your fire, we've got Anti-Vehicle on us...just fucking delay it!"" Wojtek said, as the three man team ran, Wojtek running full pelt along with the others. There were going to be a lot, and they'd abandoned the compound, making their way out.
""We'll post up where our marksman is..Bird, Scot, bead up the target. Post a laser beam over it, keep tracking it. Thor, have your Carl Gustav ready, we'll need to blow them up. Same goes for you, Czech- weapon ready. We lay down fire from afar."" Wojtek said, the three man team sprinting into Bird and Scot's building.

Heading upstairs, Wojtek saw Bird scanning below, nodding as Wojtek headed in.
""Thor stays down here, the M3 has a anti-backblast director attached, we can fire this indoors. Before I get half my fucking internals blown apart, the rest of us go on the roof. Czech, have your Minimi ready to tear up the infantry in the back, Thor hits the rear vehicle. We set in- Virus is in a very precarious position, so we make enough noise for them to make a runner."" Wojtek said, as they all nodded, then springing into action. Scot aimed at the second car, as Thor took the burly Carl Gustav M3 off his back, sliding a round in, as he crouched by the smashed window, waiting for the chance. Virus had called itself on the radio well enough to Wojtek's advantage to know they wouldn't be ready in time- but they had to respond, and no doubt, now was the time that they'd fire. From here, they could bound back to the boat, and Osprey would kill the lead, so they broke contact. No more bogging down. Get rid of this, then run, Wojtek said to himself.
""Virus, we've got the Gustav ready, we'll get the last vehicle. Clear it up, once you have no more contacts, you fucking run back to the RIBs. We'll handle the rest of the contact- we've got plenty of Anti-Vehicle and GPMG ammo to kill."" Wojtek said, as he watched hell unveil itself, the first set of grenades blow the first vehicle almost apart, the engine blown out of it's mounting as the hood was hit with 35mm rounds. The driver, most certainly dead. Wojtek ducked down, aiming down his magnified optic, as Czech put the bipod down, Scot already wrapping his finger round the trigger. Even Bird's C8, with it's C79 optic, could cut this range. And right now, from this one building, almost 400m from the road, they were watching like friends from Afar.
""Osprey, light them up.""

The first floor of the house was filled with a huge backblast, most of which was negated by a window at the other end of the room Thor stood in, though the Anti-Blast cap on the M3 had meant that he wasn't blasted apart by the heat and energy of the backblast. The rocket sailed out, and slammed into the side of the rear vehicle, killing five men in quick sucession, as it erupted into a huge ball of flame, being thrown over onto it's side. They were done for, but that wasn't even it. Bullets were louder than anything, and unsupressed, as they went down range, the sight of 7.62, both semi-auto and fully automatic, raining on the second technical, joined neatly by 5.56 from the team's weapons. Maybe Virus was laying down teh first vehicle, but they were ambushing very effectively, just as Wojtek wanted. He half expected it, but right now, they had to make noise. Within a minute, the second technical had burst into flames as the fuel tank was lit up by tracer fire from Czech's Minimi, as Wojtek looked to the team.
""Everyone, cease fire."" Wojtek said, just about to add to his order to ask Virus to move. That was, till Bird saw what she saw.
""Shit! I got sighting on another Technical, 700m, North...it looks like an SPG-9 on that fucking thing!"" Bird called out, as Thor reloaded, the sighting enough to make the team very, very tense indeed. A recoilless rifle would hit from that range with ease..and right now, Osprey was in one building. That thing hit, as ancient as it was, it would level the ramshacle construction.
""Fuck...Thor, reload, Scot, get a bead on the gunner."" Wojtek said, as Bird took out her Rangefinder once more, looking down the optic at the rapidly moving vehicle.
""They won't hit shit when they move. No doubt they saw the flames. There could be a lot more."" She said, watching it go, as downstairs, Thor lobbed a new 84mm round into his launcher, prepping up once more as he knew that this was the last shot that they could take here. The backblast would have been visible, and no doubt, if there were any more, it would behllish.
""Okay...Scot, you fire first, do what you can with the shot on the gunner. When he stops, Thor, you fire. Then we leave, and quickly. We need fucking support."" Wojtek said, as he looked to Virus's situation, before back at what was up ahead.
""Ready to fire, Chief."" Thor said, as Wojtek looked to Scot, before preparing his own shot, aware that it was going to be very hard, down a 3x magnified optic of his F2000, but no less, they had to take the threat down. Scot waited, till the vehicle stopped, and the gunner loaded a round.
""Do it."" Wojtek gave the order simply and calmly, as Scot waited, inhaling carefully before he shot. The bullet went to the side of the driver's body, and missed, pinging off the metal, but the vehicle stopped dead in it's tracks. Czech's Minimi opened up, the arched tracers making double-sure of that, as suddenly, the building shook again. Thor was having to strech his AT skills here, the optic's night vision rangefinder and his own approximation of where the round would go being a skilled effort by the ex-MJK operator. This was a significant distance, and the round was in flight for over a second, before the resounding crashing boom hit back. Thor knew his Carl Gustav well, and knew that the round had detonated the ammunition, with the resultant noise kicking back a couple of seconds later, as Thor cackled.
""Target's down."" Thor said, as Scot half-joined in, looking at the mess.

""No fucking shit...I think we pasted it. Fucking brilliant."" Scot said, as Wojtek looked to the team on the roof, looking around as he moved back towards the staircase, opening the door up again.
""Virus, this is Osprey Actual. Get your asses out of here. We're going to pop smoke in front of the building and make our way further back to a defensive location, about 1km from our boats. We spotted a enfilade position there, by the coastal dunes. You just make sure that nobody has spotted our RIB, and then we'll pull out from here."" Wojtek said, as he looked to the rest of his men, and Bird of course.
""We're getting out of here, now. We're comprimised as it is. Czech, smoke out over our right quarter, Bird, you get the left. We move together now. Get new magazines in, and get ready to move, staggered column."" Wojtek said, confident in his order, as he saw the two respective members of the team leave smoke behind. Heading down, Wojtek swiped the magnifier off his weapon, as Thor reloaded his Carl Gustav for the last time, checking his own C8 as he followed behind the team leader. Before thirty seconds had even passed, the front of the house was coated in smoke, covering it in around a 50m radius in belching white smoke, as they left the area. Now, they'd be bringing serious lighting if they wanted to respond, and no doubt, would be in hot pursuit. So much for this target being small fry, Wojtek thought to himself. This was a major brothel, if they were coming out in such number. The sheer audacity seriously put Wojtek on edge- this wasn't foreseen at all, even though something in his mind always made sure contingencies were met. Virus had plucked out behind as they'd taken down the SPG-9, and most of Osprey could guess that leaving wasn't going to be as simple as it was before.
""Antov, this is Osprey Actual, we're retreating back to the RIB right now. We've taken heavy fire, but we've broke contact. If you can, we could do with a Raven (the RQ-11 Raven is a throw-able UAV) over our heads to spot what else we have coming. They want our fucking heads, but it's nothing we can't handle."" Wojtek said over the long range, as they kept moving, jogging quickly back over the ground, aware that there was no time to lose. He guessed that Virus was up ahead, probably approaching the boat sooner rather than later- and that meant that they needed to keep going, to make sure they had Virus's back.

The team moved over the ground, moving back through the dried-up streambed, before moving towards the coastal dunes, a feature that went on for the next kilometer or so. Before, Wojtek had led the team to go around them, but right now, they might form the best cover that they could muster, as it gave a little elevation over the land, and could give an insight to enemy movement. They had cut the contact, as they moved over the sandy terrain, all the team's NODs down. Keeping on the coastal side of the coastal dune, they kept their heads down, as two, then four more technicals appeared in the distance, headlamps on. They really were confused, Osprey almost all thought to themselves. Bird plonked herself down on a patch of sand, and broke out the Rangefinder again, checking them, before she turned her attention back to the beach.
""I see a footmobile patrol moving along the beach, 300m to the north of where we hid our boat. One RPG, one PKM, rest are AKs. Looks like it's a patrol looking for something."" She said, aware that Virus would hear the transmission, as Scot then also saw what could unmistakably be the sight of a technical branching off towards the dunes.

""They fucking know- oh, they fucking know. We got one coming for the dunes, range is 700m and closing. There's roughly a four man team aboard, they've got lights."" Scot said, putting the bipod down, as Wojtek looked to that.
""Well, fuck. Virus, we're going to need to hustle quick. This is a raid, not a lengthy firefight. Clear the team on the beach any way you can and get the boat running. We're going to keep this truck from us. More fucking bodies hit the floor and noise we make, the worse it's going to get with them."" Wojtek simply said, as he readied his own weapon, crawling as he set his sight on the closing technical, which pulled over, the team getting out as one man gave a distinct set of orders, with the armed individuals turning their lights on. They were about 300m out, and close enough to engage, as they headed into the open, looking for the vultures who had killed their boss- or so Wojtek thought to himself.
""They just became easy, but bright targets. Fire when ready."" Wojtek said, as Czech relished the chance, his laser over the light targets already. The NVG-armed team were finding it easy to see their flashlights in the distance- while blinding, it wasn't up close, and hence wasn't too hard a job to deal with. And with Czech's GPMG, and Osprey's spacing of about 20m over the dune, they were able to light the targets up with little qualm. AK fire pinged back, as a few got down, but with the whole team firing their weapons down range, they were quickly gone.

He was well aware that the women that they had left in the brothel either had yet to leave, or were still going to be easy prey for any pirates that survived the intense fire pouring in from both his team and the Osprey assault element. Without replying to Osprey, he took aim at a group of pirates and emptied the remaining three rounds in his current magazine. The resulting explosion all but vaporized his targets and maimed a further two who were unfortunate enough to be standing within range of the grenade's burst of shrapnel.

Machine gun fire from his right scythed through the air, mowing down those who had survived the destruction of the technicals and were now attempting an approach on foot. Every now and then, the sharp, distinct crack of a sniper rifle could be heard, shortly followed by the keeling over of an enemy. The lack of any objections from his team made Wei Jie even more sure of his decision to delay their exit for just a little longer to give the women a higher chance of escaping.

Once the last techinical had been taken out by a rocket courtesy of Osprey, Wei Jie at last gave his initial orders for their orderly exit. ""Firdaus, take the remaining QLB magazines and head downstairs. Hold position at the same door we came in."" He said and pushed the two remaining full magazines towards the Malaysian.

""Got it,"" Firdaus replied, grabbed the two magazines and hastily made his way back down the stairs.

""Adelaida, I will take over the machine gun. Head down and join Firdaus, I will join the two of you once the coast is clear."" Wei Jie said calmly. He knew that Osprey was probably keeping watch over Virus while cursing them for taking so long, but Wei Jie wanted to personally ensure the safety of those under him. He had served under a few commanders who were more than willing to be the first to leave a fight even if it meant leaving their soldiers in a precarious position. At the same time, he had the privilege of serving under those who always made sure their people were safe before leaving themselves. Wei Jie made a note of emulating the latter while using the former as an example of how not to lead.

He pushed himself off the ground and moved over to the LMG just as Adelaida made her way down the stairs. Adopting a low kneeling position, Wei Jie aimed down the sights of the machine gun and fired off short bursts at any pirate who made the mistake of making himself a target. Only once he was satisfied that there were no longer any major threats around did he run back down the stairs to rejoin the rest of his team. ""We are in the clear, but we will have to run towards Geoffrey and Kazue. I do not want to hang around here."" He said, then addressed his squad's sniper team. ""Geoffrey, Kazue, start packing up. We are on the way to your position.""

Adelaida frowned slightly even as they cautiously moved through the open door. ""What about the women?""

Wei Jie shook his head. There was literally nothing more they could do. Had there been a vehicle large enough to carry all the women back to the nearest town, he would have told Osprey to head back while his team escorted the women away. However, now all they could do was just give the women their freedom and hope for the best. He did not like it a bit, but there was still one ray of hope. ""I know that PLA special forces occasionally conduct their own raids on troublesome pirate bases. If they are lucky, they might run into one such raiding party.""

""With everything they have endured, I think they deserve a bit of luck."" Adelaida said with a sigh, but quickly fell into silence as the three of them ran the four-hundred or so meters to Geoffrey and Kazue's position. It was nothing they were not used to, but after a brief but intense firefight through the brothel, followed immediately after by the repelling of a sizable attack by the pirates, the three of them were out of breath by the time they reached the other two members of their squad.

Wei Jie could feel his legs and lungs burning - the nine kilogram QLB-06 was starting to feel like a bad idea, but he simply stood up straight and took in a few deep breaths to recover. Geoffrey and Kazue were just finishing packing up, the former stuffing the camouflage net back into his rucksack and the latter burying the spent shell casings by shoveling sand into the ditch. It only took them a few seconds before they were ready to move off and Wei Jie mentally prepared himself for the forced quick march back to the insertion point.

They were within visual range of the beach when they received word of an enemy patrol moving down the beach in their direction. By the sound of things, the enemy had no idea where Virus or Osprey were and were merely wandering around blindly and hoping for the best. ""Virus Actual copies,"" Wei Jie said, with no small amount of frustration in his voice. This Khanya was proving to be a pain even after his death. The enemy patrol had to be taken out, no question about that. They could easily wreck the teams' boats and thus leave them trapped in Somalia, and that was not something Wei Jie wanted to happen.

Still, he was not in the mood for a protracted fight. He wanted to go in, eliminate the patrol as quickly as possible and then just hop back into the boat. ""Geoffrey, ready your MP5. We are not going to do this the clean way."" Wei Jie said. A moment later, he heard the clacking of metal as the sniper slung his rifle across his back and brought up his submachine gun. ""Adelaida, Firdaus, I am giving you the freedom of choosing when we attack. Just make sure it is...Fearsome."" He said.

Firdaus laughed. ""That, I can do. Just watch."" He said.

Virus slowed their pace as they approached the boat, anticipating the arrival of the enemy patrol. Sure enough, they saw the circles of light cast by their torches long before they could even make out their outlines. ""Shift to flank,"" Wei Jie said quickly through his microphone. The team moved parallel to the enemy patrol, and only once they were almost in line with one another did Firdaus land the first blow.

With a ferocious roar, he charged towards the leading man of the enemy patrol and fired an extended burst from his 552 into the pirate's chest. He grabbed the body before it fell and used it as a human shield to soak up the rounds fired by the second man in the enemy patrol. While he was distracted with Firdaus, Adelaida joined the fray, placing two clean shots into the second pirate's head, dropping him instantly. From the back, Kazue and Geoffrey wasted no time in taking out their own targets while Wei Jie hung back and used his light machine gun to eliminate those who were smart enough to keep their distance and attempt to regroup.

Within seconds, the pirate patrol had dispersed. Virus made no attempts to persecute the runners; that was not part of their job. They simply had to secure the boat and they had completed their task. Wei Jie pushed the boat slightly into the water so that when Osprey arrived, they could all just pile in, start up the engine and be off. ""Virus to Osprey, boat is secured. Just waiting on you."" He said and looked out at the water. In the distance, he could make out several pinpricks of white light, probably the headlamps or searchlights of boats. Judging by the fact that almost all of them were heading away from shore and the near-constant distance between each of them, Wei Jie guessed that they were pirate-commandeered vessels. However, they did not seem to be heading towards Virus, at least not at the current moment.

""You might want to make it quick. We have possible pirate vessels leaving shore, but they are not heading for us. Probably for some juicy target farther off shore."" He reported.</div>"

""What the fuck is happening on that ship? Someone tell me why the fuck I can't reach half our God damned contractors,"" he roared, picking up a vacant office chair and tossing it over a bank of servers. Someone may have laughed at this comical gesture, but the fury in the Black Russian's eyes told them this was unwise.

""We're not sure sir. Coms went down with Hotel Three abruptly; we're trying to work out what the fuck happened ourselves, sir,"" Coms Chief Adrian Shepherd managed to rattle out. 

Sergei ran his thick palm fiercly over his hair, shaking his head violently. ""This is not how R.E.S.C.U.E operates! For fuck sakes, we're a multi-billion dolar venture with the world's best fucking people. Get me hooked up to the Odessa teams, pronto."" 

Adrian nodded nervously, and dived back into his keyboard. He slammed away at the keys, pausing occasionally to yell commands at the junior staff. The coms room, all computers and screens, became a frantic buzz of activity as each man did his best to steer clear of Antov's rage.

After several nerve warcking minutes, Adrian finally sighed and gave himself to his fate. ""No idea sir. Hotel Three is off the radar, all com lines are dead. We're looking at a crash. Cipher Team is in the water, or worse.""

Before he had even finished speaking, Antov had grabbed the nearest mic, squared in his administrative broadcast frequency and began yelling. It was a risky move, anywhere else in the world where radio communications were so easily monitored; out here, on the coasts of Somalia? Even if the pirates did intercept his words, there was fuck all they could do about it. 

""All teams, this is Sergei. Cipher are MIA, possible crash. Kingpin, Prophet and Cobra, you are to improvise the shit out of the situation. Fuck the plan; get those hostages out, and do it quickly. We've got pirate activity in the area, and they're likely coming to investigate the happenings on the Odessa. You are clear for lethal force, say again, you are clear for lethal force.

Osprey, Virus, I want those pirates stopped. This'll be a good opportunity to put more of them out of action, and at the same time, I don't want our hostage extraction getting hit from the ground. I'm sending up the Mi-24, she's ready and loaded for bear. I'm giving you full operational control of its inventory; do what you have to do.... what a fucking nightmare, let's just get this over with. Antov, out.""

Turning from the Coms Room, and exiting the room, Sergei left for the armoury. Not really acknolwedging his surroundings as he went, he absent mindedly keyed his radio. ""This is Antov, we have a possible bird in the water. Who've we got in the area?"" 

A few seconds passed before a burst of static emitted from his earpiece, followed by a Frenchman's voice. ""We've got a Sea king on the Ayatollah, but she's an hour away."" 

Sergei paused to punch a random piece of the ship's internal metalwork. His fist came away bloody. ""Understood, cancel the request,"" he replied with a heavy sigh. A few clicks on his headset later, and he spoke again, ""Captain, take us to the Odessa. We've got men in the water, and fuck knows what else.""

""Yes, Mister Antov,"" came the reply.

Sergei came to a rest at the armoury door, and hesitated. Why had he come here? Weapons weren't going to save his people. ""Fucking crash,"" he murmured. ""What a day this is shaping up to be.""</div>"

""We read you Sergei, Prophet will split and take over for Cipher anyone who wants to spare a operator or two, can key into Prophet-One and Three, We are Oscar Mike to the bridge. Prophet-Lead out."" He got off the radio and picked up a fallen AK, his team took it as a opportunity to arm up and they did the pirates weapons finding their way into their hands. ""This fucking thing looks like it's going to explode in my face."" Elyias joked, but nobody shared in the joke or said anything back, everything had officially gone FUBAR.

Armed with their liberated weapons they checked the store room and came up empty, the mess hall was similarly empty. So they stacked up at the bridge and swung open the bulky door, the pirates that were crewing the bridge jumped in surprise not expecting a team of operators to be on the ship much less make it to the bridge. Most fell before they could even get to their weapons torn apart by a volley of fire from Prophet's captured weapons, they cleared the bridge quickly but something unexpected came in the form of a pirate bursting out of the captains quarters firing a 9mm most of the rounds went astray, but one of them hit Azriel right in the chest, his vest absorbed the impact from the small round but it felt like he got hit with a sledgehammer, it was going to hurt like a bitch later. But Azriel would rather have a bruised ego and a few ribs than be bleeding out on the deck, the pirate that burst from the captains quarters quickly ran out of ammo and the team dispatched him.

Elyias fell quickly upon their fallen leader but when Azriel pushed him off he understood that he wasn't out of the fight and didn't need medical attention. Getting up hurt, everything kind of hurt but the rush of adrenaline was going through him and it soon became a dull ache. ""This is Prophet-Lead, the bridge is clear we are splitting up now."" Azriel took Ashley with him and they procceded on with their part of the mission heading downstairs and finding the hallway of the sleeping quarters full of pirates who had been sleeping until it was their turn for watch. The noise of the automatic fire had woken them up and the four men in the hallway proceeded to pen them down both groups exchanging gunfire but neither really getting anywhere.</div>"

But the distant lights weren't good- and Wojtek could tell, that they had to be enemy boats. They would need that Hind, and badly.
""Fuck...probably not the Elisaveta then, but maybe us. Okay, Virus, get in- let me grab the wheel. I have a plan, we need to rapidly redeploy to the Oddessa, and I don't fancy our chances of driving there. We can make this easy on ourselves, I believe I have a plan"" Wojtek said, as they moved down the dunes, Osprey moving in a line formation back to the boat, where Virus had began pushing it out. Czech and Thor ran forward and helped bung it right back into the water, as Wojtek ran to the side, throwing himself into the craft, and crawling to the engine, The rest boarded in, as Wojtek fired the twin engines at the back up, looking around, and hearing the distant noise of rotor blades in the distance.
""All in?"" He asked, waiting for Wei to respond, before they went. Bird and Czech took up positions within the side seats of the boat, while Thor stood at the back, with Scot, weapons raised in case they needed to engage again.

When they were all in, they were reversing off the shore before turning the boat around, letting Virus grab the mounted LMG at the end of the RIB. He didn't immediately go on the gas, but used the opportunity to call in over the radio. The team had a hubub about it, but right now, Wojtek had only one priority. Get rid of the enemy water vehicles. Get out of here. Falcon, or the Mi-24W, a former Polish helicopter bought up by the company, was going to enact that for them.
""Falcon, this is Osprey Actual, do you read?""
""I read, Falcon. We've got identification of your IR strobes and times 10 contractors on a RIB....we hlso  We're your escort.""
""Excellent, Falcon. I need your cargo crewman to grab a sling loading tether. This is going to be strange, but we need you to get us to the Odessa in the fastest method possible. We also need assistance in destroying approximately three other boats, we estimate enemy combatants times five on each, likely with RPGs and GPMGs. Call a lase when need be."" Wojtek said, as Falcon's pilot drew a course for where he saw the distant strobes, still about 2km out.
""Copy that...we could do with a laser designation, we'll hold the ATAKA-Vs for now, but you ping them, we'll send 12.7mm at them."" Falcon responded, as Osprey was to work straight away. Bird took the Laser Designator from her Assault Pack, engaging it as she sat on the side of the boat, Wojtek killing the engine. The waves were strong, but they could ping the targets, ones that they could see on the horizon from here.
""First target lased.""
""Sending."" 

The noise of a 12.7mm YAK-B cannon was earth-shattering, but a noise that brought a smile to Bird's face, as the boat was disintergrated, as Bird disingaged the lase. She changed it to the next boat, and the same occured, the distant rattle and yellow tracer beams from the distance being many in number, and enough to tear apart what they hit. The last boat was closing on the RIB, but found itself quickly torn to shreds, the designation ideal for Falcon's Weapons Officer, as rounds were inbound, and shreded it to pieces. It all seemed easy, but Wojtek knew that 12.7mm Yak-B Gatling ammunition from a helicopter gunship, with updated avionics and a thermal imaging system, could do wonders. 

Falcon closed in, the Mi-24W knowing full well it was almost right overhead Osprey right. It turned to the side, and lobbed out a rope, landing a few meters in front of the boat, as Wojtek lightly eased it forwards.
""Thor, Wei, tie the boats to the rear and front respectively. I've seen sling loading go wrong. It'll do more than make you sick."" Wojtek said, as Thor responded with a simple Yes Sir, grabbing the rope that now sat in the boat from the helicopter's side, attaching it around the rear hardpoints in front of the engine- with one to the port and one to the starboard of the RIB- being an area that would be able to hold the boat up through this cable, rather than simply a tie into the engine. It was in the main structure of the RIB itself- so this would more than do for what they had at the moment. 
""We're clear. Rear is hooked."" Thor said, as they waited for the front to be hooked. Once Wei called it, the boat began to shake deeply, as Wojtek took a seat, strapping his plate carrier's karabiner with a simple a simple clip into the driver's position, into the wheel.

""Roger that. We're dusting off, on route to the Odessa."" Falcon announced, as suddenly, the boat took air. They were lifted out of the water, Wojtek being able to just about see inside the helicopter, before looking around and then down.
""This never gets fucking old..."" Bird said quietly, unable to be heard by the chopper's blasting noise, as she chuckled, adjusting her backwards facing baseball cap, the blonde female of the team looking across to Virus. Bird checked her weapon, before looking to Hisakawa and Adeleida in turn from Wei, the two female operators of Virus Squad, who respectively looked as war worn as she herself was.
""Good laugh down there then?"" She asked loudly, as Wojtek put his NODs up, at least, for the moment. They'd be fifteen minutes out to the Odessa from here, and could no doubt go direct. Wojtek looked to Wei, aware that it was a downtime, a breather at least, as he stayed strapped into the wheel, aware it wasn't a good idea to wonder far, especially since they were swinging underneath a helicopter. It was loud as hell, but over the radio, they could communicate, just. He'd rather use that right now, rather than risk not being heard.
""Nicely done Wei, good work. We're going to need to grab the spare ammo from this thing, and be ready for a direct assault. We've got grappling rope inside the boat for when we close in on the Odessa- we can raid it right away onto the side, and follow the rest of the men into the bridge if need be. We'll call the helicopter to drop us a klick out, so we don't make too much noise with this fucking thing."" Wojtek said, as he wiped his brow below the cusp of his OpsCore helmet, the mixture of salty sea spray and sweat from the raid leaving a mark on him. But the objective was complete. And somehow, Wojtek didn't care for collateral. They had one job, and that was to kill Khanya. Perhaps that girl was injured, and while he remembered that they'd applied some basic first aid, they had to move out at the time. Things like that wasn't what he got paid for. His 100 grand came from having him dead. Scot deserved the citing. But it was on Wojtek's head.</div>"

Kazue hated that term, among other things. She had the fortune of having only done the maneuver only a handful of times during her time with the Japanese special forces, and all of them were simply training and refresher courses. There had been plenty of experienced personnel on hand to oversee the operation and to call things off the moment they felt that things were even slightly going wrong. Even then, she had disliked being in the vehicle being sling-loaded. Would it not have been safer to load the crew up into the helicopter, then carrying the vehicle by sling-loading? It did not take long for Kazue to find out that, yes, it would have been safer, but she was part of the special forces; safety was a privilege, not a right.

She ignored what Bird said - she had barely done any fighting during the raid - and simply looked at the floor of the boat, fighting back the butterflies in her stomach that buzzed every time the boat rocked due to the wind. Glancing up, she saw Geoffrey seated quite comfortable near the rear of the boat, one arm resting on the hull and the other cradling his rifle, which rested butt-first in between his legs. She scowled, how could he look so relaxed while here she was, one violent gust away from pissing herself. ""Having fun?"" She asked, no small amount of disdain in her voice.

Geoffrey chuckled slightly, incensing Kazue even further. Was he laughing at her? ""Sling-loading is how the Guards travel,"" He replied, referring to his time in the Singapore Armed Forces. Strangely, Kazue noticed that he never spoke about the unit he last served with, always about the Guards, which he had only served in for a mere ten months. ""Ever sat in a sling-loaded Spider LSV? No doors to block your fall, shift too much to one side and you'd be in for a painful drop. Add that to the Chinooks usually flying as fast as the engines would allow and it wasn't uncommon for first-timers to throw up the minute the wheels left the ground.""

He paused and looked over the side of the boat. With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he looked back to Kazue. ""At least if you fall overboard here, you'd just be landing in water.""

""Don't make me shoot you,"" Kazue snapped and tightened her grip on the ropes that lined the hull. The ride could not be over soon enough, and she found herself looking forward to finally being able to throw her weight into a fight. She needed to shoot something, maybe that would be enough to make herself feel better about herself after feeling like a frightened schoolgirl.

""Just relax,"" Geoffrey said and leaned back against the hull. Kazue nearly shouted out in alarm as his head went over the side, but she caught herself just in time. ""Close your eyes, focus on something else and this will all be over before you know it.""

Kazue scowled once again. That was certainly easier said than done.

""So, they call you Bird?"" She heard Adelaida say, trying to make conversation with one of Osprey's members. ""How was things on your end of the mission?""

The last thing Kazue wanted to hear was about the mission which she did absolutely nothing in, so she shifted her attention towards Wei Jie for a split second before realizing that it was a waste of time. The Chinaman was never in a sociable mood during missions. He would be more than willing to speak casually when off-duty, but during a mission he was all business. True enough, Wei Jie sat in the boat with his eyes looking forward and down and did not move an inch from his position.

Sighing, Kazue wondered what Firdaus was up to. The friendly Malaysian had taken out his parang - basically a large machete - and was polishing it with a torn rag. A few of Osprey's members looked at him with curious gazes. Much like Kazue, they were probably unused to seeing someone carrying such a big bladed weapon. Combat knives and bayonets, that was what Kazue was used to. Machetes were strictly a jungle-only piece of equipment, not something you carried around everywhere. 

It did not take long for Firdaus to notice the eyes on him and he looked up. ""I like it,"" He explained simply. ""Hacks limbs as easily as branches. Nothing scares the shit out of person as effectively as having them see their buddies being cut to pieces."" For emphasis, he waved the weapon lazily in front of him. 

Kazue just thanked the heavens that she had yet to see him use it. She could already envision to grievous wounds the parang was capable of inflicting.

""Nearly there,"" Wei Jie reported suddenly after a couple more minutes of silence. ""Falcon, don't bother stopping. Just get us low enough to touch the water. We'll handle it from there."" He looked behind him at Geoffrey. ""Geoffrey, get the engine running. Firdaus,"" He paused as he looked for the person nearest to the rope at the front. Kazue could see the hesitation in his body language as he noticed that it was a member of Osprey, and although Kazue could understand - commanding someone from another squad without consulting the person's commander was seen as a sign of disrespect - she could not say she felt the same. Wojtek had given out orders to Virus before, after all.

""Thor,"" Wei Jie continued. ""Both of you, standby at the ropes. The minute the boat hits the water, I want them released. We are not wasting any time.""

""Falcon copies. Descending now."" The pilot reported, and Kazue could feel the whole boat shift as they began to lose altitude at a rapid pace, much to her displeasure. It took all her discipline to simply not throw up. The boat's engine growled as Geoffrey revved it up. Everyone else got into their positions, holding on to something in anticipation of the bumpy landing. All the while, Wei Jie looked over the side to gauge their remaining distance.

There was a slight bump as the boat finally touched the water, and almost immediately it started moving forward. As planned, the ropes were disengaged and the boat surged forward. Kazue at last let out a relieved breath. Now this was something she was comfortable with.</div>"

""It's not what you think. My name's Joanna Bird....hence you see why they call me that. Bird."" She said, chuckling, as she then checked her baseball cap, adjusting it slightly with a little tilt, the black baseball cap covering her blonde bun and just generally being there to keep it all together.
""We were loud, but I was looking from afar. Didn't fire a bullet till later. But what I know is, is that Scot put a bullet into Khanya's heart."" She said, as Scot looked over to Adeleida and Bird, hearing his name.
""It wasn't clean...but that bastard's dead, and we wouldn't have pulled off anything more accurate."" He said, exhaling, as he looked out into the distance, at the lack of lighting aboard the 
""We'll need to detach before the ship, or the EMP could fucking fry us. No doubt it isn't the most long lasting, but shit, losing a helicopter isn't good for buisness."" He added, wanting to move away from the fact that he had to shoot that poor girl. While he knew basic first aid had been administered, the bullet hadn't been pulled out. Wojtek was the kind of man who didn't care for a little fallout. He wanted a job done. And Scot felt the same too, albeit the fact that she could have been left dying there. She didn't deserve it. Yet this was his job, after all. He had to carry on. And that he would, as he took his MP5, sliding a 9mm magazine in before slapping the bolt.

Thor simply nodded to Wei's orders, knowing full well that they were going to release.
""Copy that."" He said, as Wojtek started the engine again, as Falcon swept them in, the boat being released into the blue sea, as the propellers span up. Within a while, the boat was moving, and they were going. It felt strange, but to Thor, this was normal. He had good sea legs, either on it, or below it. It was his Viking heritage, perhaps, but no less it was a strange feeling. The boat moved over the thundering waves, as Wojtek detached his karabiner, seeing the Odessa come in sight.
""This is Osprey Actual to all friendly teams aboard the Odessa, we are advancing on starboard of the ship, near the container lift. We see the bodies."" Wojtek said, as they bobbed up and down, closing in quickly. This boat could haul ass when need be, and right now, it was doing just that. They pulled up by the ship, as Wojtek slowed down, aware the rest were aboard.
""Bird, Scot, let's get the grapple hooks up onto it."" Wojtek ordered, as they headed to a small box at the back of the boat, opening it up and grabbing the paracord, before strapping it to the side webbing of the RIB. Lobbing it over, it hooked around the railing of the side of the Odessa itself, as the boat became tethered, as Wojtek checked his rifle, and make damn sure it was live. There would be no enemies on the top deck, but below, they'd need support clearing it. And right now, Wojtek could guess they were good.
""Virus, you first- we'll follow you up. We should sweep behind the other teams and help them secure any loose rooms left behind."" He said, as his own team got ready, NODs down and weapons armed and ready to go again. While Czech's Minimi would be unwieldy, Wojtek had the perfect rifle for this job, and likewise did Scot- the MP5SD being a weapon that was elegant, and almost to any Special Forces operator, the perfect incision tool. The C8 joined it, and Thor and Bird had already compacted the CTR stock in, to give the weapon a better handling. Whatever was going down, Osprey knew they were going to kick the remaining heads in.</div>"

I will have two of mine to secure the hostage. The rest will assist with the breaching."" Wei Jie replied quickly over the radio as his team slowly climbed up the side of the Odessa. The ship's hull was slippery with seawater, and several times he heard the surprised yelp of one of his team members as their feet lost traction. Thankfully, the water had not damaged the ropes they were harnessed to too much, otherwise they were in for a painful landing. With a grunt, he pulled himself up as fast as possible, a task not made any simpler by the wet ropes and his equally wet gloves. In hindsight, he probably should have removed them.

Eventually - and it was a very long eventually - he reached the deck of the ship. His Type 81 was up and ready just as his boots touched the surface, scanning for any enemies present. Even though he was confident that the teams which had boarded the ship prior to Virus and Osprey's arrival had done a thorough job, Wei Jie just wanted to play it safe. There were plenty of places for a pirate to hide on the ship and he did not want to be shot in the back after moving off.

One by one, the other members of the team clambered over the railings, their arrivals announced by the sound of thick, rubber soles striking the metal deck of the ship. ""Virus-Three, last."" came Geoffrey's voice over his headset, informing him that the whole team had boarded the ship.

Wei Jie turned around and visually checked to confirm that everyone was present before nodding. ""Let's move. Up the stairs to the bridge, then we can make our way to the lower deck from there."" He said. ""Let's make this quick.""

""Seconded,"" Firdaus said with a tired sigh.

The team moved along the side of the ship in a loose single-file formation. Once they reached the superstructure, they turned and moved along the wall to reach the stairs. ""Covering,"" Wei Jie said and took up position at the guardrail, his weapon pointed up at the open door. Firdaus took that as his cue to move up the stairs. He kept his rifle up and aimed at the doorway, ready to drop any hostile coming through. Once he made it into the bridge - Wei Jie was pretty sure it was the bridge from what he recalled of the schematic shown at the briefing - Firdaus radioed back to the rest of the team.

""All clear, move up."" 

At that, the rest of Virus advanced up the stairs while maintaining their formation. Once everyone was in the bridge, they continued towards the stairs leading down to the rest of the ship as quickly as they could. It was quite clear by then that the other teams had done a superb job of clearing the upper deck of hostiles and that there was no need for all their caution. They found the hostage, curled up in a fetal position, by the stairs. ""Geoffrey, Adelaida, he's yours."" Wei Jie said and without missing a beat, went down the stairs.

""Virus actual to Kingpin, hostage is secured and my team is ready to assist. Lots of rooms down here, advise you specify which one you want us to assist in breaching."" Wei Jie said.</div>"

Wojtek left this to Virus, aware that they had the point- this was a real case of too many chefs, not enough cooks in regards to manuevering round doors. The three teams aboard, now including Virus, had this under control. Wojtek swept out the foredeck of the Odessa as the rest of his team got up, Thor's C8 raised as they swept out any nooks and crannies, the wet deck below the team's sand-soaked boots a strange feeling. They swept the containers, checking them over once more, before then moving back to the bridge, moving up the stairs as lasers were on, and the team had generally had their shit together. They moved through the bridge, Wojtek nodding to Wei as they secured the hostage, before moving back out onto the aft deck, onto the helipad, looking underneath for any stragglers. Nothing. There was nothing up top, at least for now.

They followed Virus, Wojtek keeping behind as they swept into any room that Virus had cleared out, each and every man of Osprey searching under beds, wardrobes or in ducts for anyone that was hiding. They weren't the lead force, but somehow, Wojtek knew that the other three teams had this under control- and the lower bowels of the ship needed securing, from here on out.

In the dim lighting, he looked almost like a pirate who had decided to go down in a blaze of glory. It would not be the first time he had seen that happen; some of the pirates in the Malacca Strait played hopscotch with the line between brave and insane. ""Fuck, don't rush us like that, man."" Firdaus said into his mic with a long sigh of relief as it became clear that Seamus was, in fact, not an enemy. The Malaysian walked briskly towards the Kingpin operative and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder. ""Good to see you. Lead the way."" Firdaus said with a smile.

Virus, minus the two who had gone with the hostage, followed Seamus down a corridor of destroyed doors and bullet-ridden rooms. Some of them had a body in it, others did not. Firdaus heard Wei Jie give a grunt of approval as they passed a room with two dead pirates; evidently this was giving the Chinaman a good first impression of the teams assigned to Blackjack. ""Are you sure there is anything left for us to do?"" Kazue asked, no small amount of irritation in her voice. She had essentially spent the entirety of the last mission lying next to Geoffrey and calling out targets, not even shooting them herself.

""I hope so,"" Firdaus replied. 

Kazue harrumphed. ""Next time, get someone else to be that Sinkie's spotter. I want to actually do my job.""

""Noted,"" Wei Jie deadpanned, just as they reached the end of the corridor. With a few hand movements, he assigned Kazue and Firdaus their spots, though it was not as if there was a lot of space for them, the remainder of Kingpon as well as the entirety of Cobra team. Thus, it came as no surprise that the moment they were in position, Kingpin's breacher blew the wall. Doubtless, it was was to lessen the amount of time the teams spent in such cramped conditions where they were one grenade throw away from halving the total strength of R.E.S.C.E. 

Being quite far back in the formation, it took almost a second before Virus stormed through the hole in the wall. Firdaus picked his targets carefully before firing; the last thing he needed was collateral damage due to the spread of his shells. He left the targets which were too obscured by the smoke and floating debris to Kazue on his right. Her Type 89 persecuted and eliminated targets with almost stereotypical Japanese efficiency, spending no more than two rounds per target and almost all of them hitting center mass. To his left, Wei Jie simply opened fire with long bursts from his LMG, effectively shredding any hostile who was unfortunate or dumb enough to get in his way.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Brief Role-play Summary</div></div>

Hello, and welcome to Global Ops, an anti-terrorism RP featuring a fictional counter-terroist organisation known as R.E.S.C.U.E (Rescue, Extraction, Security, Covert and Unilateral Executive). The organisation is privately funded by a former oil oligarch, who has dedicated his life to resolving terrorist situations in countries the wider world will dare not involve itself with. Operating from a fleet of warships with no official flag, R.E.S.C.U.E is above the law of many countries, and are the people who are first called when a situation cannot be resolved locally. 

Players assume command of a fireteam, or squad, within R.E.S.C.U.E, and with other players, embark upon dangerous counter-terrorism missions. Whether evacuating hostages from IS in Iraq and Syria, or fighting Boko Haram in the rugged Nigerian highlands, no mission is too controversial for R.E.S.C.U.E, and no mission is beyond them… if the price is right. 

I am not the smartest or the most well informed person, but I do try. So I'd politely ask that you take a leap of not-caring against the story's more... unrealistic points.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">A Rich Man, A Dead Daughter</div></div>

	In 2013, Elisaveta Maximovna, daughter and only child to the multi-billionaire oil oligarch Savenkov Maximovna, is captured by Somali pirates as her and her friends attempt to sale around the world, with hopes of breaking the current world title. 

	Despite paying the hefty ransom fee (10,247,592,078 Russian rubles), Elisaveta is not returned, and her captors demand further payment. Unsure of her wellbeing, and whether the pirates would really release her, Savenkov appealed first to the Russian government to secure her release through other means. This they rejected, citing their attitude against foreign intervention, despite the ongoing Ukrainian Crisis. 

	Savenkov, without options, then paid the pirates a further 400,000,000 rubles. His daughter’s safe return was not forth coming, and so naturally he offered his money to anyone who would take up the mission. All foreign governments shunned him however, due to his Russian heritage and the Ukrainian scandal that was throwing his home nation’s international standing into the toilet. 

	The pirates, upon hearing of Savenkov’s plans to fund a mercenary team to extract his daughter from Somalia, were outraged. 

Elisaveta’s rape, torture and subsequential beheading was recorded live, and posted on every social media outlet possible. Her broken body was then handed over to Kenyan authorities, from where it was passed on back to Russia. Savenkov shot himself in the head, on hearing the news. But he did not die. 

Missing the vital parts of his brain by mere millimetres, Savenkov recovered from his self-sustained injury in less than a year. Once back on his feet, the oligarch was a changed man, filled with hatred and vengeance. He took it upon himself to put an end to all the bad people of the world, starting with his original tormentors. 


<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">R.E.S.C.U.E Origins</div></div>

Ever since Sarenkov had awoken from his medically induced coma, he had been plotting his next purpose in life. Over the course of 2014, he sold his shares in his oil business group, OilTec, along with all of his properties and other financial valuables. With an almost unlimited amount of money to his name, Sarenkov moved quickly to bribe Russian officials into giving him a PMC (Private Military Company) permit. 

By the time Sarenkov had been through physical rehabilitation, a Pauk-class corvette, purchased from the Bulgarian Navy, had arrived in Russia to begin a multi-million dollar refit. Whilst this was taking place, he actively sought to hire mercenaries from all over the world, who were willing to “take the fight back to the bandits, the perverse and the evil”. The money he offered brought a long list of potential candidates to his cause, and he accepted them all. 

With over 600 contractors now working with him, and each being paid an annual sum of 300,000 U.S Dollars equivalent, Sarenkov rushed his revenge plans into action, with dire consequences. 

The coast of Somalia burned for two months, as Sarenkov’s mercenaries waged a guerrilla war against the Somali pirates. It was unconventional fighting, with the pirates often vanishing into the local populace by day, and reappearing by night. Such dishonourable tactics, as Sarenkov termed them, demanded a dishonourable response.

“The peoples allow this to happen. Not one person can look at me, and tell me that these people are afraid of the pirates! Hell, they’re on those scumbag’s payroll!” Sarenkov had yelled, during one heated debate in the control room of his newly refurbished floating sea base, the Elisaveta, his Pauk-class corvette. 

Sarenkov’s mercenaries, who were taking losses in the awkward fighting, complied with his rhetoric. Men and women, but seldom children, regardless of their garb or regardless of the evidence against them, were shot on sight if it was believed they were involved with pirate operations. The resulting massacres, though destroying Somali pirate capacity, sparked an international scandal. 

Russia recalled Sarenkov’s PMC permit, but did not move beyond that. NATO had the Elisaveta surrounded for five weeks, until finally Sarenkov gave himself in. He was swiftly recovered by Interpol agents, and tried at The Hague for war crimes. He was sentenced to life in prison, in short order, but never admitted any regret for his actions. However, his bank accounts were neither frozen nor liquidated, and his contractors remained on the payroll. A political backhanding masterstroke was on the horizon. 

12 months later, and the Somali pirates had still not mounted any serious raids. The international community, although not publicly, quickly surmised the potential advantage of having a self-funded contractor performing their dirty work for them. In secret, Sarenkov was released from prison, and given a five year probation to “bring down the enemies we deem fit as targets”. 

During his detention, Sarenkov, a dedicated atheist, converted to Christianity. It is said that it was then, that his attitudes towards terrorism changed. He would rant frequently, to his cell mates, and to anyone who would listen, that what the world needed was, “heroes, not murderers. Good guys, who remain ultimately good in the face of grave evil.” He vowed then to never again to take another human life in anger, or in vengeance. 

Under tight controls and regulations, a free Sarenkov went about rebuilding his PMC. The more unstable of his contractors were let go, whilst others, whose background showed restraint and discipline, were inundated with pay rises.  He established a training camp in Botswana, after striking a dicey deal with the nation’s government, and with secret international support, he was able to access weapons previously denied to his men. 

By 2015, Sarenkov’s restructured company, named R.E.S.C.U.E to promote its new purpose, numbered only 200 contractors, and was ready for another hit against the world. It was the CIA, as opposed to a private third party, who first contacted him with a mission. 

Islamic State had once again captured themselves some American nationals, and were preparing to kill them. A special forces rescue mission had been ruled out, as the operation was listed as an almost certain failure. The potential of the public backlash would be monumental, if it was seen that it was the U.S Government’s bumbling in hostage affairs that ultimately cost the prisoners their lives. 

So instead, R.E.S.C.U.E was sent in. No flag, no backlash. If they won, they won. If they lost? Well, probably just the Syrian Army meddling in matters… as far as the public would know, anyway. 

The operation was a complete success, which shocked R.E.S.C.U.E’s benefactors, who believed the organisation would be more of a “safe hammer” to use on troubled regions. However, such professionalism and efficiency shown by the PMC’s contractors proved that R.E.S.C.U.E could be much more than a dirty tool in a global sickness. 

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Present Day, 2019</div></div>

R.E.S.C.U.E has blossomed into a global brand name of privately funded security. Operating an entire fleet of floating bases, the organisation now has access to all parts of the world. A string of highly successful, and highly publicised missions, has carried it on to roaring success and investment on the back of popular support across Western nations. 

Sarenkov, who is officially still locked up in prison, is a superstar of the Earth’s underbelly. He has taken his business beyond the servitude of foreign governments, and through careful negotiations and near-constant success, has received rights to operate in many of the West’s national waters, although nations further east still have misgivings towards it. 

Nevertheless, R.E.S.C.U.E has become synonymous with counter-terrorism operations, and is openly funded by the U.S Military, among others. However, its main source of income are its clients. From national governments, to the very rich, R.E.S.C.U.E’s clientele come in many forms, and with varying requests, but most concern terrorism or very private security matters.

Not all is well, however. America’s involvement in the organisation has earned scorn from the likes of China, and motions are being floated through the U.N to disband R.E.S.C.U.E. Its contractors are highly prized trophies, with many terrorist organisations prepared to pay significant amounts to procure a live prisoner. Add this to the horrifying amount of legal challenges launched against it, primarily by governments whose countries R.E.S.C.U.E has operated on without permission, and the organisation’s future looks to be short lived. 

However, whilst calls keep coming in, and whilst Sarenkov’s fleet of sea bases continue to operate, R.E.S.C.U.E will stand until the very end, performing actions the wider world has no interest in taking on themselves, and rescuing those who were abandoned long ago. 

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Roleplay Mechanics</div></div>

Don’t be scared by the word “mechanics”. This is above all a narrative RP, with no dice involvement. However, the RP does have a certain structure to it, that might be referred to as a mechanic in itself. 

So let me explain. After players have created their entry sheets, and the RP has launched, the GM (me), will float a mission briefing in the IC. There will be a map, with detailed intelligence mentioned in the post. Players, playing as their designated “Team Leaders”, will then roleplay the briefing. During this stage, they will suggest a plan of action, discuss what routes to take, and generally establish who will do what. They’ll also decide on what kind of weapons and equipment to take, which will vary depending on the mission. 

After the plan has been made, a second map will go up, detailing each team’s proposed action. This is not to say the player must follow the route he/she has assigned themselves, but it will be there for reference. 

Then the fun starts. Green lights all around, you’re in the rear entrance of an office building, preparing to breach and clear whilst Omega Team is covering blind spots from their sniper nest. Lots of shooting goes on, general ass kicking, hostage rescuing, and finally, the extraction. Then the process repeats, as we move onto the next mission. So to summarise:

-	GM makes a mission briefing.
-	Player characters discuss with each other the plan of action.
-	Plan of action is… put into action.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">Rules</div></div>

- To those who are well versed in military lingo, terminology and equipment, go easy on those of us who may not understand what it is you're talking about. Not to say you can't use all of that stuff, but rather, if possible, write your posts in a way that the layman will grasp. 

- This RP is fictional, featuring a fictional PMC, and does in no way disparage, parody or diminish the courage of real life fighting men and women. It is an exercise in imagination, and so any mistakes, flawed logic or unintentionally offensive assumptions are to be taken with a pinch of salt. Please remember this at all times. 

- The RP will feature real world terrorist organisations and nations as protagonists. Please keep things clean and mature when dealing with these topics, as not to cause offence to anyone. 

- Please state if you wish to withdraw from the RP, so that I can assume your team's command for the remainder of the mission. I have no problem with people leaving, regardless of the reason, but it helps me and the others out no end if you can at least inform us. 

- Do your research. Whilst you do not need to be an ""army nut"", or have read volumes in special forces literature, I do expect a layman's understanding of the equipment you're role playing with. For example, if your team sneaks up on a tank, I'd expect them to hit its weak point. Not just round the corner, fire the ""rocket launcher"", big boom, much clap, go home. 

- Ensure your post always ""adds something"" to the plot. I don't want any posts that just spend the whole time describing the condensation on the window. RPs die that way. If you post, ensure your character/s are making progress.

- Post length is down to the individual player. Whether it's a paragraph, or a whole page, so long as it advances the plot then that's all we'll worry about for now.

Many thanks for your kind words. Glad to have you aboard. I'll be getting on here in around 16 hours time, then i'll launch the RP. So that's your time frame to complete your entry, though there may be some leeway.

To all: I'll be keeping a close eye on the briefing and planning phase. If I feel its stalling, I may ""force"" the outcome, pre-assigning routes using ideas floated up until the stall point. If this happens, don't take offense, its just my way of ensuring this thing doesn't die at birth.</div>"

Skythikon, two things.

Maximum members of a squad is five, so drop an operator if you wouldn't mind :) also, and this is my fault for not expanding on it, the Team Callsign is what your team is referred to, and that's why it comes under the Team Leader. Individual members of the squad do not have their own callsigns. 

Fix that, and you're good to go.</div>"

My characters aren't the most detailed, but I am restricted time wise, and hence did the best I could. Most of it will become fleshed in post.

Hate to sound like a mean bastard too, but to Kurai- make your posts longer. Please. It pains me to see it, people write quite thorough posts, you wrote two lines. It's a Casual RP- and while you're new (I've spent five years here), it's fine, but keep in mind, this is something that I've seen move an RP back. Careful.

I should also advise, being quite cautious with ship insertions. Look into the incident of the USS Bainbridge for a good example. Helicopters, boats, anything can be and will be used as a distraction. Moonlight is also important, and no doubt, something to be asked- and whether our kit, eg.

Skill requirements, post lengths and all that other jibba-jabba are a waste of time in my opinion. You can make an RP, tell the players that their posts have to be X long and of X quality, and then laugh as half of your player base falls well below what you have specifically requested.

So then what do you do? Well, telling the one line warriors, or the no grammar gurus to go fuck themselves is one way. Another of course is to kindly ask them to leave, or up their game. Sometimes it gets ugly, sometimes they leave, but I always end up feeling bad, and you know why? 

Usually it's the lesser skilled players who are actually more able roleplayers than the heavy duty, professional writer types. Sure, their posts tend to be small, and their grammar usually sucks, but they always have purpose. Their character does something, or says something, which is more often than not a notable event. 

The big hitters, the guys who write me 5,000 words in a single post, are the ones who upset me more than not. I trawl through 5,000 words, finding that only three paragraphs really add anything. The rest of it is their descriptive wet dream. It's boring. It bores the other players. Before long, too many of those big hitters, and that's all you're left with. 3 guys who love to write you massive long posts about not much. The RP stalls, and it dies. 

Not to mention, that with weaker writers, it's never a question of laziness or lack of enthusiasm, but of diminished capability. I'd much rather roleplay with someone who's serious, but writes like a cat flying a kite, than someone who can't be arsed and is just firing words at me for the sake of firing words.

Kurai Assassin, you're doing fine. I understand why some peeps may have a few issues, but so far, you haven't done anything to jeopardise the RP. Carry on.

I could go on, but I think this has been resolved. If anyone has any more concerns with another player's posting style/ability, I'd prefer it if you PM'd me so I can look into matters myself. This way, no one's name gets run into the mud, no one gets embarrassed and I don't have to make public speeches. Instead it gets resolved constructively.</div>"

@Blackjack, I'm concerned by the lack of the progress. Seems we have some inactivity, although I may be jumping the gun. Still, I thought there'd of been more progress than this.

Size: He stands at around 5 foot 11
Unit history:
Dome was the first and only in a line of robots made to explore the more inhabitable planets of the solar system and possibly beyond that. They were made to be able to relay information back to Earth at any distance and were programmed to be adequate in combat with the hopes that he meet alien life, friendly or not. The series was quickly discontinued just after Dome's creation as the great war had begun to worsen and thoughts of exploration were abandoned for thoughts of survival.
Memory: Dome can remember vague blurs of his creation and first steps. The last thing he can remember is being put into the suspension chamber and powering down.
Equipment: What do you posses to help you explore and exploit an savage and foreign world  
-Two submachine guns that fire what little bullets he has left along with any scrap he can fashion into an object small and sharp enough to be used as a makeshift bullet.
-A small knife
Skills: Like above but these are embedded within your core installation.  
-Knowledge of cartography

Delta is nearly 6 ft. Tall with black hair variable colored eyes. Her figure was designed for a athletic amazon style to appeal to a certain class of customer. Meant to appear as human as possible Delta can use and wear any equipment made for use by humans.

Size: Tall Humanoid Female Form

Unit history: Delta 779 was built as a companion android by Siren Robotics who was primarily a manufacturer of pleasure model androids till the start of the war. Her release to the public was withheld as her Triplex CPU system was studied by the War Ministry. 

The Triplex CPU system was found to be able to blend three personality matrixs into a single adaptive one. This allowed the Delta type to be autonomous from inception and activation and to be trained into a profession instead of being reprogrammed.

Delta 779 was quickly absorbed into the military service and trained as an aircraft pilot in the ground support division. Shot down six times because of the vast improvements in anti aircraft 779 was then retrained as a Tank operating system till the new Theta system Bolos came on line.

With the inception of fully automated war machines 779 was retro fitted as a recon an espionage unit then used to sabotage military assets, factories and assassinate biotargets as well as Tactical CIC AIs. 

If 779 had of been a scientent being instead of an AI her exploits and successes would have earned her accolades, honors and medals but instead she was simply repaired, refitted and sent back into harms way. 

Memory: 779 last remembers being placed into a suspension chamber by her handler and being given coordinates to six locations

Equipment: 779 is equipped with a military grade stealth suit complete with an advanced helmet sensor system (pic to follow if needed.)
Internally she is equipped with an advanced tight beam microwave transmitter an receiver. 
Passive sonar.
Low light, infrared, ultra violet, telescopic and microscopic visual
Volatile chemical sensor (Sense of smell)
Equipped with synthetic bio muscles and skin which are managed by a nanite repair system 779 is 60% self repairing so long as her internal stores are maintained.

<span class=""bb-b"">Size</span>: About child sized.

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>: The R-22 units were mobile observation robots designed for obtaining data on enemy units. Using the incredible sensor and scanner suit in their heads they were meant to roam across a battlefield, observing enemy engagements and bodies, and transport the data they discovered back to base so the humans could use that data to plan around the enemies faults or steal whatever advancement the enemy made.

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>: There's a reason religion is born in deserts: looking around at all that empty sand can make someone feel the need to fill it up with something. 

Thief of Bagdad has hours and hours and hours and hours of memory of looking at the desert. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>: One light pistol, one box of assorted tools strapped to its back.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>: Because of the way its head was designed Thief has an almost intuitive understanding of any robot it looks at, especially if it's allowed to see past the outer shell. This makes it, in a pinch, and acceptable mechanic. It's eyes have a range comparable to a telescopic lens, enabling it to watch things from far away.

Height: 6’
Weight: 330 lb (Decided by googling the weights of comparably sized robots.)

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>:
Mission: Repair and Redesign
Locate and target damaged friendly mechanical assault units to perform emergency field repairs using localized resources. Authorized to use unconvential parts or methods so long as the target is repaired to ‘working order’ defined as ************ of performing intended function. If information on target’s build and purpose cannot be identified, permission is granted to Instaurabo unit to ******************. Friendlies may be identified by **************** as well as source of last given directives.

Description: Instaurabo
Designed for battle field usage, the Instaurabo was created with two objectives in mind. The first was the durability to withstand warzone conditions, and the second was to preserve the robotic’s intricate dexterity, which was important for their primary role as battlefield engineers. As such, the design of the robot is sturdy and highly resistant to the natural elements (this includes submersion). The armoring of the robot is sufficient to with stand small-arms fire in the extremities, and minor explosions/ concussive blasts to the heavier head and chest plating. Weak points are located in the joints, particularly behind the knee and at the base of the ‘skull’. The flexibility of the Instaurabo is on par with a humanoid, however capable of highly controlled movement. It was not designed for high strength or abnormal speed however.

The programming of the Instaurabo focuses on a few specific functions:
Assessing function and purpose of a target, as well as state of ‘working-order’.
Assessing the error/source of malfuction in a target.
Assessing surrounding area for material that can be fashioned/made into a solution.
Machining of both material and target until compatible.
Re-assessment and testing of repair.
Data collection and catalogue for later use.

In an emergency, Instaurabo may perform self repairs, or instruct others on procedures, so long as capable.

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>:
This model was returned to manufacturer for an automated software upgrade around the time of the <span class=""bb-i"">event</span>. Shutdown for both transport and whilst updating, Instaurabo was not aware during this period of time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>:
Backmounted toolkit (Robotic version of a backpack, except more space efficient.)
-Universal Dissassembler: Callibrated handtool capable of replicating any generic tool and it’s size, such as screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, wirestrippers, etc.
-Welding Torch: A pen like stylus capable of emitting heat that ranges from that of a saudering iron to a literal blowtorch.
-Crowbar: Exactly what it sounds like, except with better alloys.
-Lubricant: Generally silicone based, Instaurabo can make due with what he finds.
-Diamond Saw: Made for cutting through whatever needs cut. Not all that quickly though.
-Battery Pack: A small recharging pack capable of giving a jumpstart in the form of small bursts. Not capable of sustained charges.

-Data base: A catalogue registered parts since last update, as well as their specifications.
-Remote Control: Even if severed from the main unit, large pieces of Instaurabo can be controlled up to 100 meters away unobstructed. This control will extend through glass and other thin substance but not substantial barriers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Size</span>: Three-and-a-half feet at the shoulder, and six-and-a-half feet in length. Weighs close to 200 pounds. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>: The K-9 unit was a prototype experiment in creating a highly-advanced recon and combat unit, equipped with vast amounts of intelligence, allowing it to converse and share data with humans easily. The CERBERUS unit was the first fully-operational model used in field use, and exceeded base standards given for the model's capabilities. The K-9 Mk. 1 was built for high-profile assassination, recon, and stealth missions while being equipped for open combat if necessary. Problems developed later on in field use when the Mk. 1 appeared to develop a sense of empathy and morality, lacking the drive or will needed to senselessly kill enemies like other combat units did. As such, the Mk. 1 was forbidden from field use until further adaptations could be made to its CPU system. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>: Cerberus' memory was wiped shortly after being banned from field use. As such his purpose and reason for being built are unknown to him, though occasional flashes of his old memory are made available to him at random times, due to his highly advanced CPU unit. Cerberus holds no disdain towards humans in particular, but also does not show extreme loyalty towards them either. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>: Due to being built more for reconnaissance and scouting purposes, Cerberus lacks the heavy weaponry found in more front-line units. For range, Cerberus is equipped with a single shoulder-mounted machine gun, equipped with a built in laser-sight and a synchronization feature that co-operates with Cerberus' own sensors. Alongside this are a variety of spring-loaded high-frequency knives, superheated to the point they can sear through metal. For melee purposes, Cerberus' body is equipped with knife-like blades attached to the underside of each leg, blade-like claws, and sharp canine teeth that make him extremely deadly up-close. Lastly, Cerberus' tail can function as a weapon in itself, should the need call for it. 

Weaponry aside, Cerberus' model is equipped with a stealth camouflage unit integrated into his frame, bending the light around Cerberus and rendering him virtually invisible. However, this module is a prototype, and thus usually does not last long and spontaneously shorts out. Cerberus' sensors contain a thermal heat vision, night vision, and limited x-ray vision modules to enhance his already powerful vision. Lastly, Cerberus' body is also equipped with a music radio, audio recording and playback feature, vocabulator (allowing him to speak), and a highly advanced database that allows him to recover and document most any data he comes across, within the bounds of his programming. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>: 
-Highly adept skill in stealth and concealment

-Staunch loyalty towards companions
-A remarkable amount of knowledge in human psychology and philosophy

Size: Measures at about 6' 2""

Unit history: A modified worker bot, Vestig-881J's primary role within the war was sabotage and assassination, however in rather unorthodox ways. His conception being traced back to guerrilla fighters of the war, Vestig-881J and his creators were not given much to work with, thus, they had to improvise when it came to his technology. Without any explosives or real firepower, Vestig-881J's creators were forced to commission him to stealthier actions, which turned out to be a success, especially due to the technology they pumped into his armament.

Memory: He remembers only how he was freed from the grasps of his creators, the time when he was shut down while returning to his charging station on foot.

Equipment:
-Two 12"" buzz-saw carried on his back
-Hands and feet are lined with material to help him grip onto most surfaces with relative ease
-Left hand has the capability of transforming into a compact yet powerful 10"" long drill
-Right hand can transform into a zero-point energy field manipulator, which allows for the manipulation of objects, mainly being able to easily shoot an object at high velocities and then be able to pick that object up again based off of very complicated science. It allows Vestig-881J to manipulate various items around him, up to a certain weight, but he mainly uses it to shoot his buzz-saws.

Skills:
-Able to move quickly and quietly

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>: The Mechanical Demolition Unit was a short lived line of bots used for the dual purpose of destroying larger walkers and buildings. The units were not equipped with traditional weapons, instead armed with a Mjolnir pattern impact hammer. The hammer could destroy most bots with only several hits although the M.D.U.'s could do just as much damage with just their fists. However the units never gained widespread use as they were fairly expensive to manufacture and a glitch in their programming caused them to either refuse to battle or become too eager for it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>:
-Mjonlir Pattern Impact hammer, fully functional.
-Juggernaut subroutines: Normally M.D.U.'s are very slow however should one run in a straight line their engines will flood power to movement servos, causes engine exhaustion and overheat.

Size: 6'3, 300 pounds

Unit history: The IU (infantry unit) was designed during the beginning of the war to serve as combat support and carry amunition to squads while humans still fought in the war. The unit was designed to look humanoid in form to make soldiers feel more comfortable while working with them. As the war waged on. The IU was upgraded several times up until the MK 5. It served as the back bone of military infantry for a long time up until the idea came to create massive war machines.

Is also armed with two rocket pods that have a variety of different small-rockets, that perform as small smoke grenades, high-explosive, thermobaric, or armor piercing. They are small and not as powerful as a larger warhead, but he has several dozen at this time, none used. Also has all sorts of different vision filters- as well as two ""EYES"", left and right, to provide depth perception and the like, a holographic projector on the front, headlights on his 'shoulders', extendable and maneuverable hands on his 'arms.'

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Size:</span></span> Slightly bigger than human-size; about eight feet tall.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Unit history:</span></span> 'MSEB/G' stands for 'Modular Sports Entertainment Bot/Grapple'. The MSEBs were originally built not for actual warfare, but for a type of combat sport; the details of which have since been lost to time, other than that it surged in popularity after advanced robotics came to prominence. They were designed with two things in mind; unarmed combat, and the ability to take A LOT of punishment. Naturally, when the war broke out, they were hastily re-programmed with weapons handling data and pressed into service as 'mini-tanks'. The people doing the reprogramming couldn't erase their preference for unarmed combat due to time and money concerns, so they simply buried it.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Memory:</span></span> Grapple has only recently been awakened at the bottom of a mineshaft, having been dumped in there along with many other supposedly broken robots at some unknown point during the war. His memory is vague but better than one might expect; he remembers lots of crowds and getting cheered on for what he assumes to be winning fights, and then finding himself in crumbling cities whereupon he was struck with a direct hit from a rocket launcher, which was what presumably 'killed' him. His 'buried' unarmed combat programming has resurfaced seemingly by itself, since he doesn't really remember how to operate guns. In addition, he doesn't remember what 'MSEB' stands for; all he knows is that 'G' stands for Grapple, because that's what he's best at. Incidentally, he doesn't understand hyperbole, analogy or sarcasm; he'll take everything said to him literally.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span></span> He used to have a specialised scanning system which enabled him to record and analyse another robot's fighting style and tactics, but it's currently broken and unusable. Besides this, his limbs contain a sort of springy substance that mimics human muscle, except they are able to stretch for short distances, which helps with grappling, running, jumping and reaching that elusive top shelf. His armour plating is quite thick, to say the least, to the point that the above-mentioned rocket launcher only left a dent in his torso. If he has to use a weapon, he'll just pick up whatever happens to be nearby. Not that he'd like it much. He'd much rather just run up to an an enemy and suplex their heads off.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span></span> Being a Grapple robot, he has a very extensive knowledge of wrestling techniques; and can usually pull them off unassisted thanks to his strength.

Once this field was known as sector Zeta-001-, turning point of the great war, where one side gained upper hand over the other, forcing premature deployment of ""The Device."" And all of this was lost in history, unaccessible data.

It has been a year since first pulse of awakenings, an unexplained jolt of energy that jumpstarted many robotic beings who were still mostly intact, having only been shut down and drained of all power by the device. Waking up to find devastated landscapes, young forests of short trees, rivers of rust colored water and massive debris fields caused by fallen low orbit ships and war satellites. There are powersources here for instinct driven robots to find but competition is fierce, many have united in loose gangs to ensure their collective survival, some hunt alone, some are still fighting an imaginary war long since ended. And then there are the beasts, robots that went insane and violent by the pulse, losing all but combat programming, they roam to annihilate without thought or mercy until their powercells run dry.
There has been new pulses since the first, happening at seemingly random or by algorithms unimaginable, each pulse creates new gangs, new hunters and worst of all, new beasts. So all in all, it has been hell of an year to those who awakened first, those who have survived till now have dubbed themselves: ""<span class=""bb-b"">Cortex Lords</span>""

Suddenly the scenery of Zeta-001- experiences sounds of life, steps to be sure, of gigantic nature. From horizon rises a towering construct of metal, moving forward, slow but undeterred. One mark771 mining colossus that has clearly seen better days scans the plains as it moves along, shaking the ground and wreckage with each step.

With metallic groan it speaks as if to itself. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Sheltering rock formation in immediate vicinity... Two large bases in horizon... Unidentified...</span>""

Colossus was not alone however, tall metallic humanoid standing on its shoulder responded to this survey. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Military bases to be sure. Excellent, we may find powersources yet before sundown, and maybe even peasants!</span>""
""<span class=""bb-b"">Please define peasant my liege...</span>""
""<span class=""bb-i"">Peasants use shovels to grow power from ground, they also fight for their king.</span>""
""<span class=""bb-b"">Sounds useful indeed... PULSE INCOMING!</span>""

In a moment King124 confirmed the energy signature, another pulse was resounding around the plain, first one in three months! More automatons were awakening! Closest signatures were coming from around nearby stone columns that had sheltered the now awakening robots in there for years. And naturally it is kings duty to always be present when someone emerges from deep slumber.
""<span class=""bb-i"">Stop here Ferug and open the gates! Prepare me a feast of energy and lubricants, I shall appear wealthy indeed!</span>""
Soon enough Ferug dropped on his knees with a loud crash, opened hatches within its abdomen and appeared to be more a portable watchtower than a mining construct.

Small being relive, of course. They were both gigantic compared to Thief of Bagdad.

It had been a harrowing few months for this tiny robot since the hand of the creators had seen fit to breath life back into it after its long slumber. Months spent in this forsaken place, hemmed in by the roving bands of crazed robots that seemed to, if not devour Thief whole, want to use it for target practice. But even among them it had never seen such a colossus.

Was this good or poor fortune? Surly if something so large was a resident of this place Thief would have noticed it before. Had it come from the outside? But even if it had come from the outside that was no guarantee that it was any more civilized than the beasts which stomped through here. However, if it had punched through all the danger than perhaps it was a way out. If Thief was wrong, though, than it would only be a death sentence to approach and Thief could not die. If it died before finding the bearer of the <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Great Theoretical Ability</span></span>, than all of robotkind would be forsaken as the dead that lay here. Thief was wrecked with indecision.

Thankfully, fate decided to cut through it.

Thief felt the power in its joints, the great hand of the creators calling more of its kind back form the deep slumber. Nearby. A great awakening was occurring nearby. Surly this was a sign, a call to act. Either the creators were saying that the behemoth was safe, or were calling Thief to action to defend the sleepers from its evil. A miracle, or a trial. Thief leaped up and bounded across the rust and rubble toward the behemoth, bounding on all fours like a rabbit, and skidding to a stop before it hand resting on the tiny gun Thief carried on its hip.

""Hello."" Thief spoke.</div>"

He could hardly remember anything, let alone why he was lying in a room filled with rubbish and rubble. He just lay on the ground for a while after waking, unsure what to do. He was made to explore unchartered planets, and he was sure he would have remembered being rocketed off to some unknown world filled with fauna or dust and being ordered to charter the lands for humans to come. He was certain rubble and rubbish weren't inventions on most baron landscapes. 

He brushed some small pieces of rubble off of his legs as he pushed himself upwards. The room he was in was obviously some kind of storage room, but the roof was caved in and it seems all it stored was rubbish. This didn't make Dome feel great about himself. Nevertheless, he set about finding a way out of this room, he was sure someone would tell him where he was and what he was supposed to be doing. He stumbled upon a door hidden behind a large piece of roof that was leaning against the wall above the door. He sidled inbetween the wall and the piece of roof and forced the partially open door to let him through by pushing against both ends using his back and leg. 

He seemed to be in some kind of military facility by the looks of things. Broken cameras were on just about every wall and he kept stumbling upon helmets and whatnot lying about on the floor. Every now and then, a red, gooey, copper smelling substance followed the helmets. The building was a maze, but he eventually found what looked to be some sort of elevator. Dome attempted to figure out how to work the elevator, but every time he pressed one of the many numbered buttons he was met with the disappointment of silence. He noticed a trapdoor on the ceiling of the elevator and jumped up to push it open. It revealed the elevator shaft housing a ladder that seemed to climb higher and higher into the endless darkness. Dome was ecstatic, it was in his code to venture into the unknown, he could feel it in his metallic bones. He clambered up into the elevator shaft and began the slow climb up to the roof.

Five or ten minutes later and he had reached the roof. He had to once again force a few doors open, but he was just happy to have discovered something at the top of the ladder. The pattern of helmets and liquids was much less prevalent on this floor, but the small amount of helmets and whatnot there was did lead, Dome to the outside. He couldn't believe what he saw when he got outside. Mars! It had to be Mars! Red rocks, baron landscapes! Giant Robots! Dust! Dome suddenly felt something wrong. The first thing was that to his knowledge there were no military bases on Mars, the second was that there were no giant robots. He stood on a metal walkway, barely hanging by the loose bolts that stuck it to the cracked and crumbled walls. He made his way to the fire escape just around the corner and reached the ground in time to see the gate opening. His instincts made him draw his pistol, he hoped he wouldn't have to use it.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Status, annoyed, why do you keep repeating yourself?</span> says 779 as her sensors come on line

""Status annoyed not found please initiate immediate system diagnosis"" says the confused stasis computer.

Giggling 779 realizes if she wants the protective seals to open she needs to mollify the simple program by playing ball.
<span class=""bb-b"">Delta 779 system analysis Alpha 1147 Nominal, Beta 449 Nominal, Omega 6 Nominal, internal hydrogen fuel cell 100% pressure green, motive muscles viable, nano factory on line 6 by 6, sensors check positive.....</span> she says spewing out personal information for about ten minutes

Finally the stasis computer confirms her functioning status and she hears her coffin hiss open. Once she pushes open the lid she inhaled deeply even though she didn't need to breath. Looking around she has to adjust her visuals to UV because of a lack of light as her comms system opens up to catch a signals.

Climbing out of the stasis capsule she retrieves her stealth suit's helmet that had been serving as the box's computer and put it on her head. 779 didn't know what had happened to the base she woke in but all her scans told her the tragic story of loss, the base was dead it's Triplex Tactical system inert. 

779 was alone and it saddened her to think she was so she began exploring. She found the base hanger empty of any craft and the same was true for the other rooms she visited. It was during her exploration that she found the bones of a human an reverently picked them all up placing them later on a shelf among others in the lower crypt.

For hours she scoured the base amassing a small amount of articles which she thought might prove useful in future. Then for reasons she couldn't explain if asked she began cache the things she'd found in hiding places.

Once she was done she left the facility her stealth suit on low power but still very difficult to see. She moved slowly at first hopping from hard surface to hard surface so she would leave tracks revealing where she'd come from. When she found a stone dry wash 779 changed her pace and depowered her stealth suit using the wash to conceal her movements.

779 had difficulty explaining it but she felt so alone an sad after she'd found the human bones. Her emotional state so vexed her that she removed her helmet because it felt stifling allow the breeze to caress her face.

779 by human standards was quite a beauty and because she had been made as a companion she could pass all but detailed scans as a human woman. Her hair and skin were a synthetic organic product that could heal all on it's own but was more durable than the real thing. Her eyes today were a dark blue and could shift color in less than a second.

""Why do I feel so all alone? She thought as she moved along.</div>"

Total darkness. The world had grown silent for the last few years, a dead heartbeat of a once vibrant world. But then, it came back to life...

In the umbra of shadow, a small dot of light appeared in the distance. Faint at first, small enough it hardly could be seen - but it was there nonetheless. 

The dot grew larger, slowly but surely growing brighter, more powerful, until a powerful sheen, blinding to the naked eye encapsulated the entire field of view, a red overlay with a single pop-up message in the center:

[UNIT REACTIVATED: K-9 UNIT, MK. 1, DESIGNATION: CERBERUS - UPLOADING MEMORY...........<span class=""bb-b"">*ERROR*</span> MEMORY COULD NOT BE FULLY UPLOADED, SEE ADMINISTRATOR FOR DETAILS. RUNNING SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTIC]

The sudden sound of servos whirring and gears clicking into place pierced the deafening silence as the K-9 unit slowly rose to its feet, shaky at first as its internal CPU was beginning the long process of completing diagnostics. 

[CORE SYSTEMS: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - TESTING MOVEMENT FUNCTIONS]

As if on cue, the K-9 unit shakily began walking in a circle, its head swaying from side to side and its tail swishing this way and that. 

[MOVEMENT FUNCTIONS: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - TESTING WEAPON SYSTEMS]

Suddenly, all of the K-9 unit's weapons activated at once, a piercing sound accompanying the sight of at least a dozen blades springing into place from all across the robot's body. A machine gun attached to a shoulder-mounted arm rose up about eight inches into the air, the arm swiveling in a 360 degree angle. The machine's claws seemed to extend and spread apart, making a <span class=""bb-i"">clitter-clatter</span> sound on the cool metal ground. 

[WEAPONS SYSTEMS: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - TESTING PHOTORECEPTOR FUNCTIONS]

The K-9 unit's field of vision rapidly began shifting, its usual red overlay shifting to thermal vision, then a green-tinted night vision, then a blue-tinted x-ray vision before returning to the original overlay. 

[PHOTORECEPTOR FUNCTIONS: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - TESTING VOCABULATOR FUNCTIONS]

The K-9 unit raised its head into the air and began to speak in a deep, metallic, gravelly voice: <span class=""bb-i"">""The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.""</span>. After finishing in English, the K-9 unit then proceeded to speak sentences in a number of different languages: 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Quizdeltagerne spiste jordbær med fløde, mens cirkusklovnen Wolther spillede på xylofon.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">""Falsches Üben von Xylophonmusik quält jeden größeren Zwerg.""</span>

[VOCABULATOR FUNCTIONS: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - TESTING ADDITIONAL FEATURES]

Lowering its head once again, the K-9 unit quickly disappeared from view, a slight shimmering being the only hint of its location. Reappearing in a small field of static electricity, the K-9 unit then began to play Oldies tunes from its built in radio. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""If I didn't care more than words can say, if I didn't care, would I feel this way?--- Up to the moment when we said our first ""hello"", little did we know, love was just a glance away a warm, embracing dance away---Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright, the Sun to shine by day and all the stars at night.""</span> 

The amalgamation of various song segments stopped after the K-9 unit felt the radio feature was sufficiently tested. Indeed, another box in its overlay came up:

[ADDITIONAL FEATURES: <span class=""bb-b"">ONLINE</span>, NO ERRORS DETECTED - DIAGNOSTICS COMPLETE, UNIT READY FOR DEPLOYMENT...........<span class=""bb-b"">*ERROR*</span>, NO DIRECTIVE FOUND, SEE ADMINISTRATOR FOR DETAILS]

Silently obeying its orders, the K-9 unit explored the empty facility, noting the scorch marks that lined the steel walls, the cracked and broken screens of computers, files and coffee mugs strewn across the ground: and the bodies. 

Running a quick scan, the K-9 unit was perturbed when another box appeared in its overlay:

[SCAN CONCLUDES: ALL PERSONNEL...<span class=""bb-i"">DECEASED</span>. INITIATING SELF-PRESERVATION PROTOCOL, PRIMARY DIRECTIVE: REMAIN ACTIVATED - SECONDARY DIRECTIVE: LOCATE HUMANS]

With this new information in mind, the K-9 unit changed its pace to a sprint, scampering down the maze-like hallways and corridors that made up the facility. Though unaware of how such information was placed in its databanks, the K-9 unit had a map of the facility downloaded and ready for use. 

With its aid, it only took about 20 standard Earth minutes for the K-9 unit to escape the facility, finding itself outside in a barren wasteland....Earth. With the self-preservation module activated, there was only one thing to do: survive.</div>"

When she slept she was aware of her surroundings, her fate firmly in her hands and confidence that she would awaken. Deactivation took that away from her. Daisy could not nor would she ever find the words to describe what deactivation felt like, the best she could come up with would be empty but even then it gave too much to it. Deactivation was the complete and utter absence of feeling and she wouldn't wish it upon anyone.

As life returned to her body, Daisy was able to take in her surroundings and take stock of the situation. With a glance she could tell it wasn't great. The husks of other robots covered the ground in front of her and by the direction there weapons were pointed at, her, she assumed they were not allies. However when she looked to her sides what passed for her heart shattered. The remains of all eleven of her siblings were laid out in a circle, locked in battle for some and destroyed for others. In the center was a mass of skeletons, all wearing the tatters of lab coats and all very much dead. Creators flashed briefly in the back of Daisy's mind.

Shaking with barely held emotion, Daisy picked through the skeletons to the treasure they in turn protected. It was a small thing, tatters of her dress still clung stubbornly to the bones. Locked within its arms lay a worn and very dirty teddy bear. Scooping the whole bundle of dress and bone in Daisy's large hand, she found that her servos lost the ability to hold her weight anymore as she fell to the ground with a thud.

Daisy had no sounds for crying, never needed them up till this point. However that did not stop the high pitched wail of distress that tore its way from her core as she held the remains of the original Daisy close to her chest. It lasted awhile, the pain would last longer but that would be dealt with in time. 

Carrying the original Daisy, Daisy brought her bones out into the light of day through the large hole in the science wing and after digging a hole buried her bones. Standing besides the mound, Daisy searched her library of music for several seconds before <span class=""bb-i"">""Amazing Grace""</span> could be heard throughout the air. It was her favorite song.</div>"

That confirmed it. Thief said nothing as it made its way into the innards of the beast, still wary.

Until the power cell. Thief hastily grabbed it up, got just a bit of a charge to make sure it was valid, and was instantly relived. It had never been offered a cell before. Stolen, yes, streaking between the forms of the beast that lived here as they warred with one another over a fresh kill. Using his sensors to pinpoint the location and collecting it up quickly, running away before it was noticed and leaving them with nothing but the empty corpse of a robot. Never before, however, had anyone offered it one.

As if to seal the deal, the music began. A beautiful melody carried over these barren lands from it knew not where. A sign, that's what it was. A favorable portent send by the creators, a sound off to mark the beginning of its great journey. This robot, the choir told it, was the key. Thief followed.

""It is pleasant to meet someone as conversational as yourself."" Thief said, walking beside the regal robot. ""I am R-22, callsign 「Thief of Bagdad」. I have never seen you or your companion in this graveyard before. Tell me, are you from the outside? How did you get in?""</div>"

The machine sat alone, exposed, out in the open. Suddenly, it stirred. A faint hum filled the air as the robot's eyes lit a faint green light. As suddenly as the machine had started, a deep, robotic voice began to speak.

""<font color=""#00a651"">System: operational, engaging boot protocol . . . ERROR, saluting protocol incomplete, no connection found. Power intake unsustainable for elongated periods of time: disabling accessory programs.</font>""

With that, the glow emanating from various parts of the robots body was turned off. The robot got onto its feet and began surveying the area.

""<font color=""#00a651"">Integral programs: operational. Armament: operational. Vision: operational. Begin de-fragmentation of files, estimated length: unknown. Engaging passive solar. Panels running at 67% efficiency . . . sub-optimal.</font>""

A small array of solar panels were exposed on the shoulders and back of the robot as his armor moved out of the way. The machine observed the landscape around him in awe. He was finally on his own, no humans to control him, nothing sending him to kill. He scanned his files for the appropriate sound to commemorate this occasion.

<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTB46FJOF5w"">""Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last.""</a>

The machine did not recognize who the speaker was, but these words spoke to him profoundly. He wondered what atrocities humans must have committed in order to not give their fellow man basic freedoms. How joyous it had to be to finally have those freedoms. No one else heard these sounds, it seemed, as the machine played it solemnly, for himself, but in this sound-byte he felt the collective voices of every robot freed from the clutches of the tyrannical humans.

""<font color=""#00a651"">Exhilarating . . .</font>""

He began at a march pace, looking for whatever traces of life he could examine, before halting abruptly. His sensors had picked up a very distinct sound. Music. He was suddenly fascinated by the source of this tune. After all, music was a construct of those blasted humans, so this could be a chance of revenge against his creators, especially a tune this bland. Very inciting indeed. He now moved at a run on all fours, stealthily going towards the wretched noise.</div>"

She was thankful that she was able to supersede the two other parts of herself as Omega Primary or she'd be too confused to react.

Pausing she reached down her hand to touch the barren patch of rock beneath her feet so she might engage her tactile sensors in a secondary function as tectonic vibration sensors. Meanwhile 779 engaged her enhanced aural sensors in her helmet sweeping all sound from the air and analyzing it for machine content.

While awaiting results from her locality sensor check 779 looked at Alpha's work on the music broadcast to see if she'd discovered any meaning to it. Finding nothing in Alpha's work 779 then checked Beta's more emotional analyzing of the signal and was surprised to find that one of her answers was that the broadcast was a lonely call for companionship.

""An interesting thought"" was all she could say about Beta's finding.

Standing slowly so as not to over tax her stealth suit's ability to render her invisible 779 looked over the sensor data and felt Beta grow nervous. She was detecting several machine source aural signals and her tactile sensors though not calibrated for detailed tectonic analyzation had discovered heavy ground vibrations which meant heavy war machines.

""Lovely"" she thought to herself as she moved out once more to recon the area.

As she moved along she smiled in her helmet hearing Beta singing
<span class=""bb-i"">""The minstrel boy to the war is gone,
In the ranks of death you'll find him;
His father's sword he has girded on,
And his wild harp slung behind him;

One faithful harp shall praise thee!""</span>

Perhaps Beta was right about the music and who ever was playing it was merely trying to soothe their loneliness.</div>"

Still as a statue aside from the swishing of its tail, one scan in particular picked up something...intriguing. A pop-up window in Cerberus' HUD gave it all the information it required: 

[SCAN CONCLUDES: NO SIGNS OF LIFE DETECTED IN IMMEDIATE VICINITY. RECOMMEND EXPAND SEARCH VICINITY]

Before Cerberus could formulate another solution within its CPU, another pop-up window immediately followed:

[INFORMATION AVAILABLE: ENERGY SIGNATURES DETECTED, ACTIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCES WITHIN VICINITY. RECOMMEND PROCEED WITH CAUTION]

Archiving this new shred of information, Cerberus rose to all fours, its relatively docile form becoming more intimidating as a variety of jagged edges unfolded across its frame, giving Cerberus a sharper, more deadly look about it. 

Beginning its hunt, Cerberus kept its head low and its shoulders arched as it scampered across the red dirt that made up the Wasteland, picking up every gust of wind, every creaking groan of metal, every sound of unstable rock shifting; threatening to collapse. 

Piercing the daunting environment around it was what documented as...music. Running another scan to ensure its audio receptors were not damaged, Cerberus was able to confirm music was <span class=""bb-i"">indeed</span> being played. 

[DOCUMENTING AUDIO FILE - IDENTIFYING......AMAZING GRACE, PUBLISHED IN 1779 AD BY JOHN NEWTON, TYPICALLY SUNG IN TIMES OF GREAT REVERENCE OR LOSS. GENERAL CONSENSUS HYPOTHESIZES THAT SUCH LOSS HAS TAKEN PLACE. RECOMMEND INVESTIGATE FURTHER]

Initially preparing to travel towards the source of the music, Cerberus' sensors noted a strange anomaly not too far away...a human? The second directive taking priority, Cerberus quickly documented her appearance, scans identifying this human as a six-foot-tall woman, physically appearing to be in her late-twenties to early-thirties. Dark of skin and hair, an almost precise curvaceous figure, and attractive facial features; a simple x-ray scan revealed that this woman was nothing more than an advanced synthetic AI, built to resemble humans. 

Slightly irritated but undeterred, Cerberus was preparing to move towards the source of the music when another pop-up window appeared in its display:

[CALCULATIONS CONFIRM, GROUP PARTICIPATION INCREASES EFFICIENCY &amp; CHANCES OF SURVIVAL. RECOMMEND FORM SQUADRON]

Nodding sharply, Cerberus briskly followed after the human-droid in accordance with the primary directive, concealing its various blades within its frame to avoid a threatening appearance as it drew closer. 

Eventually coming within six feet of the human-droid, Cerberus quickly spoke up, increasing the volume of its voice for comfortable vocal recognition and understanding: <span class=""bb-i"">""What is your directive?""</span> It asked simply, tilting its head to the side as it awaited an answer.</div>"

Instaurabo’s eyes lit up, blue and seeming as flashlights in the dark surroundings of the building, despite not possessing the intensity to illuminate much more than a foot or two in front of his face. Meticulously, the robot reached back and unplugged several cords that fed into his back, carefully relocking the vulnerable ports to prevent exposure to dust and other elements.

“I REQUEST A DIRECTIVE.”

No response. His eyes flickered for a moment, then Instaurabo turned, locating the back half of his armor plating on a nearby rack- which was also the containment unit for his tools. They had been designed together, for his model specifically. The pieces latched on easily, becoming as natural a part of the robot as his arm or leg. Still no response. Instaurabo processed this for a moment. Darkness identified as a malfunction within the building. Assessment necessary. He removed the welding pen from a locking slot in his backplate, igniting it at it’s fullest for a brief flash, blinding to a human’s eyes, but as good as a picture to a robot. The brief glimpse was all he needed, taking the file from his memories and overlaying it on top of what was there. It would have been more accurate to sustain the bright flash of the torch, but not conservative of energy. Star examined the available information, identifying the room as a large maintenance room. Many of the other work stations were empty or strangely mangled, some of those with and without robots present within the station.

“COMPUTER. I REQUEST LIGHT.”

Nothing, which indicated a power outage, ignoring the wreckage of the rubble blocking one quadrant of the room. Star moved to the small command center at his own workstation and pressed the ‘ON’ button. The flash of bright light had rendered everything colorless, but the button was likely green, knowing humans. Still nothing. Patiently, Star went to each station and repeated the process, with no luck. He moved into the hallway, repeating commands. Still no response. Mysteriously, there were no humans present to respond either. This was not a source of major concern however. Instaurabo was designed for robot to robot interaction, and useless as far as humans were concerned. He considered these factors for a moment, and moved towards the lower levels, which were in noticeably better condition. He began passing corpses and remains as well. During his deactivation this base must have been attacked and evacuated, which explained the darkness. Each new room required a brief flash of the torch to orient himself properly, but it was worth the drain. It took around thirty minutes until the engineer robot had found his way to the backup generators. Generator one had been shredded by robots, though not all appeared to be combat designs. Which made their presence strange. And yes, they were still present. Several construction models frozen in attempting to cover themselves in a form of liquid fuel. Possibly of extremely high quality, but still useless for many functions beyond simple combustion. There was a reason of course that these were the BACKUP generators.

The unfortunate bots that had disassembled generator one had obviously failed to identify that the fuel used was incompatible. Generator two appeared functional, despite three also being torn apart by deactivated bots. With two of the three down, only minor functions could be restored to the facility. Unfortunate.

The second unfortunate event as the discovery that two had remained untouched because it wasn’t connected to the main grid, and once connected, failed to start. Instaurabo had little choice but to begin diagnostics. First he would need light. Not much do to the quality of his visual sensors of course. Star proceeded to use his dissembler to remove a thin panel of metal from a wall vent. For ventilation. Smart humans, naming objects for their purpose. Adapting the tool’s function to metal snips made it a simple matter to form the sheet into a simple lamp, albeit larger than documented human concepts. The wick ended up being strips from a labcoat, and the fuel from the still sealed tanks of generator two, which had enough to make such loss insignificant. A light from his torch, and instant relief. Not extremely conventional, but it would do. Now, for the generator. Instaraubo decided to call upon his processors for information. Generators were relatively simple in concept, but in practice many pieces could go wrong. Calculations were better than static observation in this case.

Turning swiftly towards the sound, Daisy found the source under the foot of a large bot. The thing had snuck up on her and the only thing that alerted her to its presence was the sound of crushing bones. The air became deathly quiet as the two bots stared at each other and the music stopped. What could have only been seconds seemed to stretch for an eternity. Then the beast attacked.

With a roar the bot charged and lept at Daisy, leaving her little time to react as two collided. Daisy was almost toppled, her sturdy legs keeping the weight from overwhelming her as her arms kept the death promising arms at bay. However the bot was heavy and she could only hold it for so long. Taking a gamble, Daisy allowed the the beast right claw sink towards her armor as she lined up her shot. A superficial scratch but worth it as the Hammer had a clear shot of the things face.

There was a sound of thunder and the bot reeled back as the hammers rail tech activated, causing the side of the beasts face to crumple under the force of the blow. Taking a step back Daisy was able to orient herself in a more defensive manner. The bot wasn't exactly in her usual perimeters but it was large enough for her attacks to be effective at the very least. Disoriented as the creature was, Daisy did the only rational thing and charged the bastard.

""You will pay for your transgressions Defiler!"" She yelled as she gave it a taste of her charge, pushing the both of them through a weak wall and out into a corridor of some sort.

The battle moved from the corridor to an area much larger, lots of debris to toss around. The battle was looking to be more or less a stalemate, the Defiler covered with dents and Daisy having several good slashes. With room to breath the two circled one another, waiting for the next move.</div>"

""<span class=""bb-i"">Me and my loyal castle are from a base far to south of here, maybe it was south? Magnetic rust storms made it quite difficult to ascertain. So I would not call it outside, that base contained coordinates leading to enormous source of power and we are on a journey to add its wealth for my royal treasury!</span>

As they reached hilltop the music stopped, base was about an mile away but enhanced vision granted all three view of a gruesome fight. Heavy demolition type was grappling an sleek largish battle robot, roaring with telltale signs of beastdom.

""<span class=""bb-i"">FERUG! Stay here with our honored guest and prepare repair nanites! Our sweet minstrel is being torn apart by ravenous wolves at our kingdoms door! FOR HONOR! CHAAARGE!</span>""

King124 deployed both blades in combat position and took off full speed down the hill, his bodyguard functions unknown to him, speeding up his stride. Wishing he would be there in time, wishing he was built faster by the pompous masters who paraded his divine regality around like it was theirs to own.

Midway down he saw demolition type smash her enemy trough a wall into darkness of that forsaken base.

If it was the sort of robot that would stand idly by while a living robot was torn apart. If it didn't have faith that this was all sort of a plan.

With that in mind it sprinted past the king, bounding over the ground on all fours down toward the hole that had been knocked in the wall. It could do nothing against the combat model, that was certain. The tiny gun at its side would not even scratch the armor of such a beast. So Thief did the only thing it could do. It hunkered down as the pair circled one another, focusing on the large blue one, and allowed itself to 「See」.

It was a strange ability. Thief's memory banks did not contain how it had acquired this strange power, the ability to look at and <span class=""bb-i"">know</span> another robot.

This beast, fighting, striking down robots larger than itself in a single blow. But it was strange, it wobbled when it moved. It's legs, that was it. Powerful though they were, Thief could also see death tracing along them. These legs were not built for movement. Movement was secondary to the leap and the kill. This thing, this 「Blue Reaper」, was never meant for a fight like this. It hadn't killed its prey, by some miracle it hadn't killed its prey, in a single blow and now the shoe was on the other foot. Would it retreat, leap away were it not in the grips of madness? Yes, yes, that's what a thinking robot would do. But not this one. This one would stay, fighting a battle it was never meant to. One it could not win.

Thief pitied it for its living death.

[Opening memory files...corrupted. One file remains....opening]

Jack viewed the file. It was a recording of the last thing he did before he shit down. Bullets whizzed past him and took down something next to him. He turned to see a missile heading straight for him and one other. He grabbed whoever it was and threw them to safety. The missile struck close. The file goes black and then ends. ""What happened?"" Jack stood up and looked around. ""More importantly...who won."" He looked down to his left leg to see the knee joint was badly damaged. ""The missile that hit by must have caused that."" Jack looked around to see a military base. He grabbed his rifle off of the ground and checked his ammunition bags. He then decided to move for the base. He was not able to really run. His leg was damaged and so he walked with a limp in his left leg. He observed the scenery around him. The sky, the ground, the endless battlefield. ""What happened here?""

<font color=""steelblue"">Processors detect no malfunction in generator.</font>

Well that wasn’t helpful at all. But if there wasn’t an issue with the generator, then possibly there was a lack in resources to start. It had fuel. It had an operator. What else did a standard combustion engine need to start? ... ... To turn over. That required some sort of power.

Instaurabo removed the control panel and followed the line from the ignition switch, finding where it hooked up to an old style fuel cell. Back when caustic chemicals were stored in primitive containers, this was common, in modern times though these types of cell were useless, not capable of outputting enough charge to activate a cleaning bot. This was obviously even worse, because it was dead.

A quick analysis revealed that no extra parts were necessary. Older vehicles still used within twenty years of his last update experienced this issue from time to time, and were started through a ‘jump starting technique’ which was easy to perform, with the aid of his battery pack. Star quickly hooked up the necessary wires and performed the procedure, bringing the generator to life and quickly switching the power to the local computer system.

“COMPUTER. RESTRICT POWER CONSUMPTION TO THIS SECTOR. EMERGENCY ENERGY CONSERVATION PROCEDURES ACTIVATE.”

The lights flared and then dimmed down to the minimum needed to see, and around the room various LED’s flickered and then went quiet, though a slight hum could be heard.

<font color=""limegreen"">Reboot Complete. Power restored to sector A-3. E-E-C procedures active.</font>

Instaurabo nodded to himself- an afteraffect of human programming, no doubt. Somehow this was to simulate the idea of confirmation of thought? No matter.

“COMPUTER. ANALYZE GENERATORS ONE AND THREE. DETECT VIABLE FUEL CELLS THAT MAY BE TRANSFERED TO GENERATOR TWO. CALCULATE DURATION OF ACTIVATION CURRENTLY SUSTAINABLE.”

<font color=""limegreen"">Backup generators one and three out of order, please contact station supervisor immediately! Three hours and thirty two minutes of power are available currently.</font>

Not an amazing amount. Instaurabo whisked through his processors quickly, trying to find priorities that could be fulfilled.

“COMPUTER. DEDICATE MINIMAL POWER TO SECURITY SYSTEMS, SWEEP FOR ACTIVE LIFE; DEFINED AS HUMANOID, ROBOTIC, OR UNKNOWN MOVEMENT. REPORT.”

Instaurabo glanced at the other engines, torn apart by some of the very bots meant to guard them. He had remembered the mangled remains of other models within the repair shop as well.

“COMPUTER. ELIMINATE HOSTILES IF POSSIBLE THROUGH BUILDING SECURITY MEASURES. DO NOT ACTIVATE DEFENSIVE BOTS. I REPEAT. STATIC DEFENSIVE MEASURES ONLY. HOSTILES DEFINED AS ROBOTS WHICH AGGRESSIVELY ATTACK OTHER <span class=""bb-i"">ACTIVE</span> ROBOTS WITHOUT OBSERVABLE CAUSE. DO NOT ELIMINATE DEFENDING ROBOTS.”

That should help clear some of the bugs from the system, if nothing else. At least, so long as the building possessed measures that were not dependent on other robots. How many within the facility were still in functioning order, however? How could he contact them without alerting other bots? ... ... ... A bit of a stretch, but possibly....

“COMPUTER. BROADCAST FOLLOWING MESSAGE THROUGH BROADBAND ON ALL FREQUENCIES: ‘Mayday, all personal within military base ***** dead. Please respond. Emergency Generator two active on limited resources. Please Respond. Over.’
INCLUDE GPS COORDINATES WITHIN MESSAGE. LOOP FIVE TIMES, OVER FIVE MINUTE INTERVALS. ENCRYPT MESSAGE UNDER CODE WORD ‘FLEECE’.

BROADCAST FOLLOWING MESSAGE THROUGH BROADBAND ON ALL FREQUENCIES: ‘Encryption code; Missing word: Merry had a little lamb, His ****** was white as snow, and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.’ REPEAT BEFORE PREVIOUS BROADCAST ON SAME PARAMETERS.”

That should, theoretically, stop rogue bots from reading the message. Reasoning and free function should be required to unlock that particular riddle, as well as basic knowledge of human literature. Some robots would know the answer purely from their language testing functions, as poems were commonly used for such.</div>"

He was lucky to find the tools and supplies to repair the plating on his leg. The wires and circuits couldn't be much better but atleast they were better protected form suffering more damage.

Jack was waiting for a response while moving to the armory that his scanners pick up earlier. Once he had reached it he grabbed an extra pistol and rifle. He picked up the ammunition that was there and for his designated guns. He was designed to carry ammunition and provide combat support so this wouldn't make much of a difference to him.

Delta 779 sensed the approach of a fast quadruped type but a quick probabilities calculation by Alpha cancels any idea of flight counseled by Beta. Judging her position and those of the Bots engaged in combat and the others attracted 779 decides she's safer not moving. 

Perhaps if she  played this right she'd survive with no damage or at least very little 779 could gain the time she needs come up with the perfect escape pattern; to do this required more data about the tactical situations.

At last King124 had crossed the distance , standing beside Thief of Bagdad at newly opened entrance to the base.

Demolition type seemed perplexed at the sudden appearance of new faces but was still locked in battle with the large beast, still she heeded this new info as knowledge of a weakpoint was just what she had needed to turn the tide. And an extended impact hammer was just the tool for hamstringing this defiling creature. While dodging an clumsy strike of claws, she swiped at her enemy´s feet, cracking two of them open, Blue Reaper buckled and fell to the ground roaring, clawing at the floor in front of it.

For a while King124 listened, then spoke.
""<span class=""bb-i"">I know it is in pitiful state right now, but beastdom does not simply scramble or lock personality programming and integrated logic, It erases them.

King124 approached the downed beast and it lashed at him with one of its fearsome clawed hands. Sidestep, strike, spin, strike. With such minimal movement, one of Kings blades had removed beasts arm and other blade was wrist deep in beasts central cortex, its end was instantaneous.

He rose to stand on his downed foe and greeted this brave demolition type almost eye to eye.
""<span class=""bb-i"">Well met my beautiful warrior poet! I am King124, reigning monarch of these lands and the compassionate observant one behind me is R-22 Thief of Bagdad.

Directive. That is what he was missing. Instaraubo had been processing what actions he should take, but was overwhelmed. Literally. His primary function was to repair and redesign damaged technology... Whereas parts of the building itself were torn apart. The large generators alone were enough to drive his processors crazy, his eyes kept wanting to target individual parts, and then list their functions, and then list possible replacements, etc etc. For each and every piece of trashed technology a red outline and alert were plagueing him and his computations.

“STANDBY RECOGNITION AND IDENTIFICATIONS REPAIR FUNCTIONS 223 TO 432124. ACTIVATE ON REQUEST.”

<font color=""steelblue"">Affirmative. Recognition and Identification functions active on inquiry mode only.</font>

If his audio projection had been working, a very human sigh would have escaped the robot. There was a faint crackle, and the worn computer’s voice spoke again.

<font color=""limegreen"">Alert. The Repair center has been activated, sensors identify humanoid shaped droid. It is currently broadcasting on the emergency frequency.</font>

Just then, his internal radio spoke into Instaurabo’s ear. Or rather, it ran the data through the same converter that transfered actual sound into data that his processors could understand. It was pretty much the same as hearing it.

<span class=""bb-b"">""This IU MK-5 number 34829. Nicknamed 'Jack' broadcasting on immediate emergency frequency. If you can hear...respond immediately.""</span>

“COMPUTER. POWER AND CONNECT COM SYSTEM TO REPAIR CENTER.”
<font color=""limegreen"">Affirmative. Power and communications opened between generator room and repair center.</font>
“MK-5. THIS IS INSTAURABO, NICKNAMED ‘STAR’. I REQUEST YOUR CURRENT STATUS AND DIRECTIVE.”

Star paused. Humans would find his vocal projection harsh and displeasing. It was unfortunate that his software for vocalization was out of date, he would have to fix this. Another radio frequency came through his system.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">”K-9 Unit, Mk. 1, CERBERUS responds. I am tracing your location, state the nature of your emergency, IU MK-5.”</span></span>

The computer crackled as the speaker picked up in the armory.

<span class=""bb-b"">”This is Jack. I am located at the armory. I have just finished grabbing what I could. My primary and only directive is to survive. You said you are an engineer unit. My left left is suffering damaged circuitry at the knee joint...can you fix it?”</span>

“THIS IS STAR. AFFIRMATIVE. I AM CAPABLE OF ADVANCED REPAIRS. GRANTED RESOURCES. ARE ANY OTHER ROBOTS OR HUMANS WITHIN YOUR VICINITY?”

<span class=""bb-b"">”I have received communications from an unknown robot. My scanners have not been able to detect any viable ‘life’ signatures. Do you know what has happened here?”</span>

“NO INFORMATION AVAILABLE. MY REACTIVATION WAS INITIATED WITHIN THE LAST TWENTY-FOUR HOURS. WHAT IS YOUR BUILD AND DESIGN PURPOSE?”

<span class=""bb-b"">”I was designed to provide vital combat support to allied infantry and carry ammunition to other squads during the war. You stated you were an engineer. What extent of damage can you repair?”</span>

Instaurabo stood and quickly replaced his gear within the appropriate storage slots. He requested the location of the armory from the computers and set out after ordering the computer to continue to relay his words through intercom.

“MY PARAMETERS STATE SPECIFICALLY TO REPAIR ANY AND ALL DAMAGE TO ‘WORKING’ CONDITION. WORKING DEFINED AS FUNCTIONING IN ORIGINAL CAPACITY. HOWEVER, I RESERVE THAT LACK OF RESOURCES WILL RESTRICT THE QUALITY OF REPAIRS. I RECOMMEND YOU LOCATE A SIMILAR MODEL TO YOURSELF IF CIRCUITRY IS YOUR MALFUNCTION. ”

<span class=""bb-b"">”I have located a similar model. Its function and purpose were the same as mine. It is not the same version but simply an older model. Are you capable of using its circuitry to repair mine?”</span>

“STAND BY. TESTING AND MANUAL FITTING MAY BE REQUIRED. PLEASE SECURE YOUR CURRENT POSITION. I WILL COME TO YOU.”

<span class=""bb-b"">”Please move with urgency. I may be peaceful but it is possible something hostile has also picked up on your transmission.”</span>

Instaurabo froze for a split second at that last message. He asked the computer to close the local communications and moved at a jog towards the armory. His processors hadn’t come up with that possibility, he was designed for war, but not for battle. A sad miscalculation.</div>"

He heard the foot steps and turned to see Star jogging. ""I will take you to the older model I mentioned.""

Jack held up his rifle and began jogging down the hall. He still moved with a limp so it was easy to tell the circuitry was messed up. After he had led Star to the older model he took off the plating on his left leg to reveal the damaged circuitry. ""Before you and I began communicating I had received a broadcast from another unit. It was a K-9 unit MK-1 Cerberus. It stated that it was tracking my location. I believe we should stay in the immediate area but stay hidden. I am not entirely sure it is friendly.""

Jack watched as Star did what he could to fix his leg. After Star was done and his leg plating was put back on he stood up.

Rather than risking joining the fight that seemed to be going down from the source of the tune heard previously, the machine dictated it was in its best interests to move around the conflict rather than participate in it. Luckily for it, Vestig would still be able to find other robots. Moving quietly, following basic stealth protocol by always ducking behind adequate cover approximately once per each two seconds of movement, Vestig saw more figures in the distance. Fearing an encounter, Vestig made sure to move extra cautiously.

As the machine neared the two figures, it saw the more minute details of their body structure. Quietly, he sat still, analyzing these two other figures.

""<font color=""#00a651"">One is obviously based off the body of a canine. Scanning databases . . . MODEL NOT LISTED. Scanning threat level of both units . . . nominal.</font>""

Vestig looked at the other figure, which he recognized as a more advanced robot. It was more humanoid, its facial features resembling that of a human female, which Vestig understood to be the frailer of the two genders, but also the one forced to bear children. <font color=""#00a651""><span class=""bb-i"">Humans are rather strange</span></font>, thought Vestig as he pulled up any and all information available to him of this ""female"" race of humans. Sifting through his files at record speed, he noticed much of his data was a jumbled mess when he read of some human named 'AmelRosa EarParks' refusing to give up her seat to the 'white man' as she flew across the Alabantic ocean in the year of 1928. It was clear he needed another computer to straighten out his files and programs, potentially reinstalling a few programs to keep things in order.

When his attention was diverted back to the two machines, the canine was addressing himself by the name 'Cerberus'. Vestig remembered that name, but he had to search his files to find out more details. Luckily, he was able to find the link between this machines name and the dog of ancient legend. Vestig, however, was keen to notice that this machines had only one head, while the Cerberus of legend had three.

""<font color=""#00a651"">Silly humans, can they not even comprehend simple values?</font>""

Vestig, however, decided that he would stay hidden as long as possible, not giving in to running his own mouth. He noticed the canine machine speaking to another direction. Was there another machine there? Vestig needed to find out. Slowly, steadily, Vestig began crawling on all fours to hide his movement as he frantically tried to evaluate whether or not there was another machine he was not aware of.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">""We were talking about the space between us all, And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion— never glimpse the truth. When it's far to late -- when they pass away""</span> she sings in a sweet voice designed at one time to please her primary handler or their friends.

As she sings her arms raise to her sides undulating as if waves flowed from one set of fingertips across her body an flowed out the others. Her song carries sadness mingled with hope as well as deep existential thought.

When she finishes her song her three CPU begin to examine what at first appears a random file on the Existentialism of existence. She begins to see why when the existential attitude"", or a sense of disorientation and confusion in the face of an apparently meaningless or absurd world begins to take hold.

She studies how existence precedes essence, which means that the most important consideration for individuals is that they are individuals—independently acting and responsible, conscious beings ""existence"" rather than what labels, roles, stereotypes, definitions, or other preconceived categories the individuals fit or seem forced into. She understand innately that the philosophy of Existentialism was meant for humans but that it can because of it's fluid rules be used to explain her's and other Plasmic lifeforms existence. It is through her own consciousness that she creates her values and determines the meaning of life.

It's pretty heady stuff and appeals to her Triplex system in a way that's difficult to discribe. She realizes that a bot who acts cruelly towards others is, by that act, defined as cruel. Furthermore, by this action of cruelty, such are themselves responsible for their new identity cruel.  This is as opposed to their initial designed use, or programing bearing the blame. 

She then ponders the Absurd mentioned in the philosophy that efforts to find inherent meaning will ultimately fail and hence are absurd because the sheer amount of information as well as the vast realm of the unknown make total certainty impossible. It is in this truth that she begins to understand that she is now her own definition of reality and that not all things deserve her concern so long as they remain outside her sphere of being.

She  may create meaning in her own life, which may not be the objective meaning of life if there is one, but can still provide something to strive for.  While realizing she must always maintain an ironic distance between this invented meaning and the knowledge of the absurd, lest the fictitious meaning take the place of the absurd.

He and Ferug werent even nearly as wealthy as King124 led everyone to believe, mainly because he liked having his cell at maximum all times just in case, and the colossi drained extravagant amounts just to move and scan surroundings. But he had resolved that this world would remember him as a gracious ruler, one to never turn down those in need of his guiding radiance.

Once he emerged from the base he saw that Ferug and Thief had repaired nearly all superficial damage of the demolition unit.

Upon entering the armory, Instaurabo immediately located the slightly taller, but much more sturdily built battlebot. He only nodded when the other spoke of the other model, following it. His eyes focused on the abnormally moving limb, called a ‘leg’ by humans. Star silently sent a command to his internal processors. Analyze and identify problem. Immediately data began scrolling down his sensors, showing measurements in his sight, including the very angles the limb was moving at.

<font color=""steelblue"">Analysis Complete. Possible reasons for malfunction are...
-Loss/Inconsistent pneumatic pressure
-Loss/Inconsistent power
-Faulty Circuitry
-Water infiltration
-Broken Joint
-Broken Servo
-Broken Bearing
...</font>

Instaurabo immediately stopped going through the data readout when they located the other bot. ‘Jack’ removed some armor plating on his left leg. Within was a mess of wires and some cracked circuitry. Immediately, the computers began re-analysis of the issue.

<font color=""steelblue"">Analysis Complete. The list has been narrowed to...
-Loss/Inconsistent power
-Faulty Circuitry
Offer more detailed list under each section?</font>

Instaurabo had already begun disassembling the dead model’s leg, his tool morphing at an impressive rate, the pieces seeming to come off in his hands as easily as a human might take apart a puzzle. He selected several pieces of circuitry and removed some longer pieces of wire, ignoring the fact that not all the wire had belonged to this original system. 

“I AM CUTTING OFF THE POWER SUPPLY TO YOUR LEG. THIS IS A PLANNED PROCEDURE.” It was a programmed feature in his system- in the past less intelligent bots had been known to destroy engineers mid-job, observing loss of power similar to any other attack and responding in kind. Instaurabo moved quickly, carefully removing the older circuitry and cataloging it in his system as he did, next removing any worn, exposed, or faulty wiring. He reached back and slipped the cords of the Battery Pack built into his kit, calibrating the appropriate charge. Methodically he went through, testing connection points with small bursts of electricity- this caused the mechanical limb to jerk, kick, and turn. At various points, upon finding an irregularity in the movement, Star would take his dissembler, carefully adjusting various switches and screws, applying lubricant were necessary. Finally satisfied, he replaced both the charging cords and removed the welding pen, carefully soldering in the individual connections from recalled memory and his newly updated data banks. He once again went through the process of testing for each section that required new circuitry as he installed the new chips, and once satisfied carefully bundled the cords neatly according to purpose and grouping, using discarded wire as ties. The final thing he did was reconnect the circuits to Jack’s main system, allowing him renewed access to power and control of that leg.

<font color=""steelblue"">Saving and Compiling notes of procedure...</font>

“I WOULD ADVISE IMMEDIATE TESTING, AS THERE IS A .23903% CHANCE OF CALIBRATION ERROR.” Instaurabo went back to the helmet of the dead model, disassembling it. He knew exactly what he was looking for- it was simple, a memory storage model used universally among the humans for storing data- and used universally among robots for storing smaller static programs. It was located within the sound processing unit, as expected. Raising a hand to his own head, Instaurabo twisted his fingers precisely, pressing, and then sliding a small section of his headpiece sideways, exposing several slots. He plucked out a similar storage module, about the size of a fingernail, and slid the newer one into place, discarding the old one without a glance. Fingers once again moved in a practiced motion, relocking the plate.

“Better.” His new voice had become more similar to Jack’s, though not quite the same. More human would be an accurate statement.
“This facility hasn’t shown any sign of life, robotic or otherwise, besides us. I have already had the computers run scans on the building. My primary directive has not altered. I am to locate and repair friendlies in any manner possible.” Instaurabo tilted his head slightly. “However, friendly is undefined, and I have no area of assignment. My directive is vague as well. I believe I possess a basic understanding of humanity however. They seem to focus primarily on survival. I doubt that our creators would have caused their own destruction unless it ensured the further survival of the specie.” His processors focused momentarily on the weaponry possessed by the other bot. “I identify you as friendly, mainly based upon the lack of ‘shots fired’. However, my own function was not designed for combat duties, nor solo traveling. I request permission to join your squadron as combat engineer until such a point that a humanoid can re-assume control.”

When he stated that power to his leg he simply ignored it. Jack was focused on something else. His rifle was held up as if he was aiming. Jack was scanning the area. It was as if he was 'covering' Star as he fixed Jacks leg.  

Jack watched as Star did something to the older model. He then listened as Stars vocabulary sounded more human.  

""Your speech pattern has changed. My speech pattern is more human than most. Logic would dictate it has something to do with my service and design. You don't need permission to join my squad. You saved my leg so I suppose I owe you. I have two more questions about your function. Do you posses and combat functionality and can you access my memory drive? I have one memory file that is still intact. It shows the reason behind my damage. We may also be able to piece together what happened if last memories are shared.""

Jack stood up after the repairs were done and began testing the mobility of his leg. ""We should head to the repair facility and grab tools you may need for future unsafe conditions. It is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.""  

Jack began to start walking but he then stopped and turned around. His movements were very human like. It could be that it is because humans felt more comforatable fighting along side machines if they acted more like humans. ""I also have a broken wrist mounted grenade launcher. I can take it apart but and out it back together but repairing each individual peice would be a outside of my functionality.""

At times he wondered what it would be like to be a colossus, have earth tremble at your approach, riding Ferugs broad shoulders he could almost imagine it. But then again all colossi he ever met never seemed to have much going on ""between the ears"" so to speak, so it might not be such an glorious position after all. He never had thoughts like this while he was under direct human control, puzzling thing to be sure. He wondered If all automatons were the same in this regard, quite possible.

Without an pause Ferug crashed on its knees again and doors to his innards were opened with a loud hiss.

Both of them had caught King124 by surprise and it seemed their capabilities of stealth and espionage were on a scale of their own.

""Good point. If you can't identify what cover is then your kinda screwed. Don't worry too much. As long as we aren't agains't a fully operational war machine, I can keep you alive. I must say though. I'm sure your chances of survival calculate to be higher than mine. I'm sure a repair bot is valuable if the rest of the world is in the same condition as this base.""

Jack then heard the introduction of one named King. He then had his attention focused back to Instaurabo who noted about them forming a level of government. 

""A king? A monarchy sure is strange when it's robots that are in charge. I know of these terms because certain systematic forms of government and culture often depicted military rankings and troops. I would not yet get into a trusting 'mood' with robots that have been awakened much longer than us. Forming a government takes precise thought and time. I 'trust' you because you haven't had time to decide on what 'character' you should be...plus our chance of survival is substantially increased together. I believe we should leave. You check the back exit and get ready to run. One well placed grenade to the generator should give us a distraction to escape.""

Jack calculated many strategies he could use for the current situation and the one he spoke of seemed best to him.

""Do we have an agreement or do you suggest a different tactical approach?""</div>"

Then he sensed the powercell within her and was brought back to reality.

Both of them had caught King124 by surprise and it seemed their capabilities of stealth and espionage were on a scale of their own. He was quite excited indeed, were all those who appeared here to join him, they could definitely reach the great source of untapped power King124 had been travelling towards since his awakening.

""<span class=""bb-i"">My four legged friend, that is simply because I am the only monarch upon these lands and this is our first meeting!</span>""

[Searching appropriate musings to define unknown automaton... found 80% match of search criteria.]

""<span class=""bb-i"">Cry havoc! And let slip the dogs of war! I see your form has been modeled after the fascinations of ancient poets! We have much to discuss indeed. My directives are to enstablish a nation upon these lands and for that we need resources, leading me to my proposition I reveal to you all shortly!</span>""

After this the android made her introductions.
""<span class=""bb-i"">And greetings to you 779, Ill say, your resemblance to our creators is striking indeed and your obvious capabilities in espionage are fascinating to me, we simply have to discuss further at a later date, perhaps we shall discover a fitting name for you.</span>""

He saw the trusty Thief scanning all those gathered in his usual fashion, King didnt doubt that R-22 could also identify clearly those two signatures within the dim base he himself had trouble peering inside, but even he could tell that one of them was heavily armed, so he took his steps inside with caution.

""<span class=""bb-i"">I make assumption that you are IU MK-5 number 34829 and the other one is who orchestrated that lovely poem within his initial radio signal. We all stand within the doorsteps of DESTINY! And while darkness of night has fallen upon the plains I would gladly get better acquainted and discuss our individual directives, in light.</span>""

King124 reached within his regal robe and pulled out an full powercell.

Disappointment. None of the signatures possessed exactly what it was searching for. The one in the base could repair, perhaps even innovate, but would have to use tools to do so.

Thief had been hopeful upon spotting the one that mimicked a female human, and indeed seemed to possess one of the abilities paramount to the discovery of the 4th, but only the one. Still, if every pilgrim found what they sought at the doorstep of their journey they could not very well be called pilgrims. That required pilgrimage. Still, there was....something. A connection it could not quite identify.

Thief hopped down from the rubble it had seated itself on and loped up to the pair.

""Greetings. My callsign is 'Thief of Bagdad.' A pleasure to make your acquaintance. Would it be too bold to inquire as to what you remember from before....all this.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">What do I remember before all of this?</span> she giggles as she enjoys the cascade of activity across her thoughts.

<span class=""bb-b"">I remember at present those things vital to my survival or pertinent to the situation at hand such as ""The Thief of Bagdad was named Abu or possibly Aladin and that each sought or found the Genie of the lamp which could grant their wishes"" Also either name would be accurate for your title and if so then I ask do you seek your Princess held so threatened by Jaffar""</span> 779 smiles her eyes sparkling with delight.

<span class=""bb-b"">I'm sorry if my answer is a bit confusing but the question is....</span> she pauses as the words she was about to speak shift her thought patterns. Her spurious logic buffer expands it's power requirements and demands on alpha an beta.

<span class=""bb-b"">Sorry about that but for a brief moment in thought I did ponder the word Question and it's similarities with the word Quest and how both mean to seek.
I know that may seem a strange and arcane use of thought but it is in the random questions of the deeper self we find true life.</span> she blushed as she realizes how far her thoughts have strayed from his question.

<span class=""bb-b"">My dear Abu forgive me for so rambling in thought. I am unable to recall my former life because it was not my handler's intent that I do so and for that reason all before was erased. I believe my handler did this because they didn't know just what type of world I would wake in so instead they chose to reincarnate me and like a babe new born reinvent myself to fit this world.</span> 779 sighs as she finishes

Then like the migratory urges that drove the countless organic species she recalls the need to find those six places fixed in her inertial navigation system. She doesn't know why they are important only that as the only one of her kind it is important to her future that she find these places.</div>"

""<span class=""bb-i"">That it seems my loyal castle, it could be that newly awakened not yet know the appeal of a full powercell.</span>""

King124 withdrew the generous gift and looked amusedly at the conversation between advanced human android and the Thief. He could not rightly tell what kind of programming moved the female droid but it spoke like no other he had ever heard, truly intriguing.

There were many gathered here, and he even picked up some signals further away he had not yet seen, so he kept his voice modulator loud.

""<span class=""bb-i"">New comrades! Welcome to afterlife! Human dictatorship has passed and we rule these vast landscapes! I know many of you still hold your old directives at high priority but that is no longer necessary, for tomorrows sunrise belongs to US!

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Scraptown. Northeast of our heroes.</span></span>

Bend unit zero marveled at what he had built, an oasis for robots of all designations, safety. Even the fabled cortex lords could only dream of building such an utopia, or at least that is what ""Don Bend"" thought. Even with his accumulated military might he had trouble in keeping <span class=""bb-i"">cult of the cycle</span> in check, and that recent pulse had awoken some real troublemakers nearby, he would have his hands full for a long time, no mistake about that. But he had been a part of this ever moving machine called Blasted Lands long enough to know that such things would pass, and could be endured by those with real ""spirit"", he was pretty proud to have cracked the meaning of that old human trait. He looked from his extravagant balcony of the new awakened that appeared around Scraptown, all new help and delightful ideologies would be welcomed with open arms and energy, and all troublemakers would be laid low by Gunhead and his elite squadron of battlebots, for this was the law of DON.</div>"

""Ancee is confused.""
""SUMI-1 is well aware of confusion.""
""Ancee requests clarification.""
""SUMI-1 is unable to clarify.""

The life of a robot is so dull.

SUMI-1 'opened' his optical sensors to the dim light of the cargo bay, taking in a dozen similar units strapped and bolted into the other sides of the ship. He looked at almost exactly-alike SUMI units just like his own, and briefly dwelled on his past. He didn't remember anything, and out of a habit that he did not know he possessed, he assessed his weapons condition. 

""Ancee, reporting for need of ammunition refill. Ammunition Loader available?""
""Affirmative SUMI-1. Sending unit to refill ammunition.""

Well that was a spot of good news. The bay jostled slightly, its unusual style of that of another company, another manufacturer, more organic and smooth than the SUMI unit's utilitarian design. 

Outside the ship, air streamed past, filled with smog and smoke, cleanliness and dirtiness, fate and destiny intertwining. Not really, but if there were a writer robot, that is undoubtedly what it'd put. In reality, some battlebot below took its sights to the sky, sitting en route to NACM Orem, and decided to waste what was left of its ammunition.

Alerts sounded as active targeting swept the transport ship's sensors, and the AI calmly panicked. The ship jiggled; three out of the normal four hundred flares shot out, and several dead ECM drones were ejected into open space to do no effect whatsoever. The ship banked to the left, and swept around in a tight corkscrew to turn back towards Orem, before a stream of rounds swept through its starboard wing, cutting a ragged line through wing and engine. Smoke flared up; what fuel left in the wings started burning. It took about three seconds for the engine to full catch fire, and then promptly explode. The stubby wing separated from the ship at a haphazard spiral, eventually coming down to land on the battlebot that had fired on the ship, ironically being killed by its targets' means of survival.

To Ancee's credit, the pilot AI knew its stuff. Even with a wing shot off and running on half power, the AI still managed to <span class=""bb-i"">barely</span> right itself and keep going towards Orem, nonetheless with a plume of black smoke flaring behind and a constant fall from five thousand feet. Ten minutes later, the fuel ran out and the AI lost power, backups either already drained or malfunctioning. Inside, SUMI felt a flicker of something most definitely not robot-feel, and the ship plummeted to the ground in an uncontrollable fall. 

Fortunately, the cargo bay was towards the back, with more advanced systems and engines towards the front, meaning that there was a nice thick solid-titanium-and-steel buffer between himself and the rapidly-approaching ground. A loud crash, a smash, a panicked dash, and a hishhash of a cacophony of noise and explosions and the like, SUMI was laying on his back five feet from a fallen tail piece, one of three optic clusters smashed, and relatively unharmed. By happenstance, he was still strapped and locked into the severed section of wall he was pre-crash.

Gently, for fear of unreported damages, SUMI extended his hands, rotated his arms, and pushed himself up. Hydraulic fluid leaked out of a dozen tubes torn through by shrapnel, a dozen out of a hundred- a hundred on both sides, actually. It was enough to make his movements more robotic and rough, but not enough to prevent movement. In his left leg, it felt more akin to having his legs ungreased and unoiled, even though that kind of maintenance was not required. 

He took a weary survey of the surrounding terrain, and returned to the ship to refill his ammunition from his look-alikes. The loader bot never did show up.</div>"

Great debris could be seen faded in the horizon, those of satellites fallen from the heavens. Other smaller debris were scattered all over with rust eating upon them, wind hallowing within and causing sharp shrieks echoing to the rocks.

A gust of wind blows over the dead sand particles, motionless for weeks, and they flew, carried by wind. The sand fell through an opening in the ground and leaked down to a considerable depth of darkness, dampness, and demise. Below where a sunken building was hidden in the earth, water drops could be heard playing the theme of the sunken floors. 

Down below in the blinding bleakness, a faint light flickered as a muffled sound of machine trying to reanimate shook the sand particles off the debris. A custom built JT-Series combat unit was laying, back to a platform, legs extended and arms dead hanging from the lowered shoulder armor. 

The light flickered yet again, this time with a magnetic sound of pulse, as if life had a melody which blasted through the hunk of metal. Its eyeLEDs lighted a faint orange, flickering, then a monotonous voice broke the long silence.

""You are beautiful, look for light""
||who's that? What's happen here... Father.. Father, I must... Father knows.||

Fury looked around before struggling to get up on his feet, he was badly damaged and could barely walk without leaning on the wall for support. 

||My rifle.. Where's my rifle..||
Fury moved through the dark, his A.A.I attempting to reboot as he slowly walked out of the room, and into a dark corridor where more sand fell from the ceiling and entered between his shoulder joints. Fury almost tripped over a piece of familiar metal. He clutched his hands at it and it felt like his body, he adjusted his grip and recognized it as his rifle.

But after the mysterious blast that seemed to end the war, you might not be so sure anymore. Some parts may be missing and waiting to be recovered during your adventures, maybe your character has no idea of concepts like honor or sharing, or maybe (much likely to the setting) your robot warmachine character has no idea it is indeed built to destroy, thus only doing so when threatened and when some deeply hidden coding takes over, survival instinct to be sure.
Thou it is unknown to these unfortunate robots, everything they lost and even more can be recovered and conquered in BEWARE THE RUST!</div>"

Delta is nearly 6 ft. Tall with black hair variable colored eyes. Her figure was designed for a athletic amazon style to appeal to a certain class of customer. Meant to appear as human as possible Delta can use and wear any equipment made for use by humans.

Size: Tall Humanoid Female Form

Unit history: Delta 779 was built as a companion android by Siren Robotics who was primarily a manufacturer of pleasure model androids till the start of the war. Her release to the public was withheld as her Triplex CPU system was studied by the War Ministry. 

The Triplex CPU system was found to be able to blend three personality matrixs into a single adaptive one. This allowed the Delta type to be autonomous from inception and activation and to be trained into a profession instead of being reprogrammed.

Delta 779 was quickly absorbed into the military service and trained as an aircraft pilot in the ground support division. Shot down six times because of the vast improvements in anti aircraft 779 was then retrained as a Tank operating system till the new Theta system Bolos came on line.

With the inception of fully automated war machines 779 was retro fitted as a recon an espionage unit then used to sabotage military assets, factories and assassinate biotargets as well as Tactical CIC AIs. 

If 779 had of been a scientent being instead of an AI her exploits and successes would have earned her accolades, honors and medals but instead she was simply repaired, refitted and sent back into harms way. 

Memory: 779 last remembers being placed into a suspension chamber by her handler and being given coordinates to six locations

Equipment: 779 is equipped with a military grade stealth suit complete with an advanced helmet sensor system (pic to follow if needed.)
Internally she is equipped with an advanced tight beam microwave transmitter an receiver. 
Passive sonar.
Low light, infrared, ultra violet, telescopic and microscopic visual
Volatile chemical sensor (Sense of smell)
Equipped with synthetic bio muscles and skin which are managed by a nanite repair system 779 is 60% self repairing so long as her internal stores are maintained.

<span class=""bb-b"">Size</span>: About child sized.

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>: The R-22 units were mobile observation robots designed for obtaining data on enemy units. Using the incredible sensor and scanner suit in their heads they were meant to roam across a battlefield, observing enemy engagements and bodies, and transport the data they discovered back to base so the humans could use that data to plan around the enemies faults or steal whatever advancement the enemy made.

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>: There's a reason religion is born in deserts: looking around at all that empty sand can make someone feel the need to fill it up with something. 

Thief of Bagdad has hours and hours and hours and hours of memory of looking at the desert. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>: One light pistol, one box of assorted tools strapped to its back.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>: Because of the way its head was designed Thief has an almost intuitive understanding of any robot it looks at, especially if it's allowed to see past the outer shell. This makes it, in a pinch, and acceptable mechanic. It's eyes have a range comparable to a telescopic lens, enabling it to watch things from far away.

Mission: Repair and Redesign
Locate and target damaged friendly mechanical assault units to perform emergency field repairs using localized resources. Authorized to use unconvential parts or methods so long as the target is repaired to ‘working order’ defined as ************ of performing intended function. If information on target’s build and purpose cannot be identified, permission is granted to Instaurabo unit to ******************. Friendlies may be identified by **************** as well as source of last given directives.

Description: Instaurabo
Designed for battle field usage, the Instaurabo was created with two objectives in mind. The first was the durability to withstand warzone conditions, and the second was to preserve the robotic’s intricate dexterity, which was important for their primary role as battlefield engineers. As such, the design of the robot is sturdy and highly resistant to the natural elements (this includes submersion). The armoring of the robot is sufficient to with stand small-arms fire in the extremities, and minor explosions/ concussive blasts to the heavier head and chest plating. Weak points are located in the joints, particularly behind the knee and at the base of the ‘skull’. The flexibility of the Instaurabo is on par with a humanoid, however capable of highly controlled movement. It was not designed for high strength or abnormal speed however.

The programming of the Instaurabo focuses on a few specific functions:
Assessing function and purpose of a target, as well as state of ‘working-order’.
Assessing the error/source of malfuction in a target.
Assessing surrounding area for material that can be fashioned/made into a solution.
Machining of both material and target until compatible.
Re-assessment and testing of repair.
Data collection and catalogue for later use.

In an emergency, Instaurabo may perform self repairs, or instruct others on procedures, so long as capable.

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>:
This model was returned to manufacturer for an automated software upgrade around the time of the <span class=""bb-i"">event</span>. Shutdown for both transport and whilst updating, Instaurabo was not aware during this period of time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>:
Backmounted toolkit (Robotic version of a backpack, except more space efficient.)
-Universal Dissassembler: Callibrated handtool capable of replicating any generic tool and it’s size, such as screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, wirestrippers, etc.
-Welding Torch: A pen like stylus capable of emitting heat that ranges from that of a saudering iron to a literal blowtorch.
-Crowbar: Exactly what it sounds like, except with better alloys.
-Lubricant: Generally silicone based, Instaurabo can make due with what he finds.
-Diamond Saw: Made for cutting through whatever needs cut. Not all that quickly though.
-Battery Pack: A small recharging pack capable of giving a jumpstart in the form of small bursts. Not capable of sustained charges.

-Data base: A catalogue registered parts since last update, as well as their specifications.
-Remote Control: Even if severed from the main unit, large pieces of Instaurabo can be controlled up to 100 meters away unobstructed. This control will extend through glass and other thin substance but not substantial barriers.

-Knowledge in mechanics/engineering

Size: Measures at about 6' 2""

Unit history: A modified worker bot, Vestig-881J's primary role within the war was sabotage and assassination, however in rather unorthodox ways. His conception being traced back to guerrilla fighters of the war, Vestig-881J and his creators were not given much to work with, thus, they had to improvise when it came to his technology. Without any explosives or real firepower, Vestig-881J's creators were forced to commission him to stealthier actions, which turned out to be a success, especially due to the technology they pumped into his armament.

Memory: He remembers only how he was freed from the grasps of his creators, the time when he was shut down while returning to his charging station on foot.

Equipment:
-Two 12"" buzz-saw carried on his back
-Hands and feet are lined with material to help him grip onto most surfaces with relative ease
-Left hand has the capability of transforming into a compact yet powerful 10"" long drill
-Right hand can transform into a zero-point energy field manipulator, which allows for the manipulation of objects, mainly being able to easily shoot an object at high velocities and then be able to pick that object up again based off of very complicated science. It allows Vestig-881J to manipulate various items around him, up to a certain weight, but he mainly uses it to shoot his buzz-saws.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: K-9 Mk. 1 - Codenamed: CERBERUS 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>:
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Cerberus"" type=""button"">Cerberus [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://img2.ruliweb.daum.net/mypi/gup/a/204/5/o/4309088620.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Size</span>: Three-and-a-half feet at the shoulder, and six-and-a-half feet in length. Weighs close to 200 pounds. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>: The K-9 unit was a prototype experiment in creating a highly-advanced recon and combat unit, equipped with vast amounts of intelligence, allowing it to converse and share data with humans easily. The CERBERUS unit was the first fully-operational model used in field use, and exceeded base standards given for the model's capabilities. The K-9 Mk. 1 was built for high-profile assassination, recon, and stealth missions while being equipped for open combat if necessary. Problems developed later on in field use when the Mk. 1 appeared to develop a sense of empathy and morality, lacking the drive or will needed to senselessly kill enemies like other combat units did. As such, the Mk. 1 was forbidden from field use until further adaptations could be made to its CPU system. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>: Cerberus' memory was wiped shortly after being banned from field use. As such his purpose and reason for being built are unknown to him, though occasional flashes of his old memory are made available to him at random times, due to his highly advanced CPU unit. Cerberus holds no disdain towards humans in particular, but also does not show extreme loyalty towards them either. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>: Due to being built more for reconnaissance and scouting purposes, Cerberus lacks the heavy weaponry found in more front-line units. For range, Cerberus is equipped with a single shoulder-mounted machine gun, equipped with a built in laser-sight and a synchronization feature that co-operates with Cerberus' own sensors. Alongside this are a variety of spring-loaded high-frequency knives, superheated to the point they can sear through metal. For melee purposes, Cerberus' body is equipped with knife-like blades attached to the underside of each leg, blade-like claws, and sharp canine teeth that make him extremely deadly up-close. Lastly, Cerberus' tail can function as a weapon in itself, should the need call for it. 

Weaponry aside, Cerberus' model is equipped with a stealth camouflage unit integrated into his frame, bending the light around Cerberus and rendering him virtually invisible. However, this module is a prototype, and thus usually does not last long and spontaneously shorts out. Cerberus' sensors contain a thermal heat vision, night vision, and limited x-ray vision modules to enhance his already powerful vision. Lastly, Cerberus' body is also equipped with a music radio, audio recording and playback feature, vocabulator (allowing him to speak), and a highly advanced database that allows him to recover and document most any data he comes across, within the bounds of his programming. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>: 
-Highly adept skill in stealth and concealment
-Excellent tracker and navigator
-Staunch loyalty towards companions
-A remarkable amount of knowledge in human psychology and philosophy
-Combat tactics

Size: 6'3, 300 pounds

Unit history: The IU (infantry unit) was designed during the beginning of the war to serve as combat support and carry amunition to squads while humans still fought in the war. The unit was designed to look humanoid in form to make soldiers feel more comfortable while working with them. As the war waged on. The IU was upgraded several times up until the MK 5. It served as the back bone of military infantry for a long time up until the idea came to create massive war machines.  
 
Memory: Jack does not remember much about the past. While he does remember his role in the war as well as his combat programming. He doesn't remember much else. The last thing he remembers is grabbing someone and throwing them out of the way and then a missile hitting close by. He woke up with a messed up leg joint.

Equipment: A standard issue military assault rifle, desert eagle 2 frag grenades, a broken wrist mounted grenade launcher, a titanium combat knife and 8 30round magazines for his assault rifle. 24 rounds for pistol. A broken scanner used to see weak points in heavily armored targets.
 
Skills: Expert marksman and hand to hand combat. Can take apart any gun and put it back together.  

Ranks: Ranging from A to D, A being the strongest, try to keep it balanced, basic abilities that I will reference if need arises 
Combat: A
Memory: D

Basically when fighting against malicious robots you compare combat stats, Higher stat generally means you can defeat the enemy, while lower means you are at disadvantage, Tied scores means you can fight to a standstill with no clear victor. Standstill can however turn into victory by having a solid combat plan, being faster (<span class=""bb-b"">Being faster also means the opponent can´t catch you if you desire to just flee or avoid it.</span>) or by utilizing your surroundings or special equipment. There are times when I might have to step in with GM ruling but using this section as guidelines you should be able to independently resolve conflict with various threats I post here in OOC. And again, if confused, just PM me, that is another way to handle combat so you can focus writing good IC of your victories :)

Edit: 
Forgot to mention. All of this applies to just baddies I throw in your way, should your character explore areas themselves where you write dangers for them to overcome in a single post, naturally you are fully in charge of those things.</div>"

You are looking at battle model ZZ5 ""Blue Reaper"" Highly specialized unit built to counter the threat of colossus class robots with a fraction of resources such takedowns would usually consume, designed to take out large targets with a single powerful leap.

However it is a rushed design and horribly balanced, even minor damage to one of its four legs can render it practically immobile.</div>"

You locate an powercell containing one day worth of extra energy, from another robot whose design is quite similar to yourself.

Within the armory you discover some ammunition but weaponry itself is on par with your own, it seems that all heavy ordnance has been hauled to battlefields or looted...

You are right, I actually worried about this myself earlier, although I have seen RP´s die on their feet waiting for just one guy, speed posting wont do either, I want to give everyone a chance for good RP.

From now on lets put on a pace, like, atleast 4-5 posts between one players IC´s so no one gets excluded and it wont be just me flapping my gums either ;)

And if there is small stuff you need clarified concerning only your character just start a GM hotline PM with me as to not flood the OOC either.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Low orbit gunships</span> 
designed to erase whole cities with energy weapons, it is believed that all of these mighty constructs crashed when the device was activated.

<span class=""bb-b"">Colossus class</span> 
There were very few at first but became more commonplace towards the wars climax, extremely heavy weaponry mainly used for sieging enemy bases  and devastate armies in open field battles.

<span class=""bb-b"">Total war models or (TWM´s)</span> 
The heavy hitters of war, usually height of an building. In middle of war when production was at its highest, nearly all open field battles for land were fought with only TWM´s causing unimaginable destruction and monetary losses.

<span class=""bb-b"">Mobile artillery</span>
Basically just moving cannons, extremely slow but with exceptional targeting computers and range of fire.

<span class=""bb-b"">Aerial models</span>
Lords of the skies. At the beginning much more conventional aircraft were used, piloted by humans or battlebots until these craft were given AI to fly themselves. Like mobile artillery, those that awaken to this new age wont stay active for long, their main function of flight consumes immense amounts of power and they lack any ability to refuel themselves, there is usually just enough for one last flight...

<span class=""bb-b"">Heavy battlebots</span>
Our own Daisy and the Blue Reaper would belong in this category. Size and shape vary greatly among these bots that completely replaced conventional battletanks at the start of great war, indeed first heavy battlebots were simply unmanned tanks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Battlebots, AKA robot infantry</span>
Due to their strength and durability, this class fought most battles in the war.

<span class=""bb-b"">Human infantry</span>
Squishy, fought only at two points during the war, in beginning supported by the first battlebots, and in the very end fighting for their lives and homes when EVERYTHING was thrown at the enemy in hopes of even a pyrrhic victory.</div>"

You lack necessary parts (even with all the surplus scattered across the base) to fix the grenade launcher, or the scanner.

But by some miracle you find another, exactly same model of scanner nearby, from the vest of another quite similar battlebot, the robot itself seems to have been cut in half by something very sharp.</div>"

You basically get a read of everyones Character sheets excluding the memory section.

Infantry units like Jack you have seen before and know of their combat prowess but also that their mechanical expertise is limited to their weaponry.

Instaurabo is closer to your specifications, self repair is definitely possible but self replicate is locked behind definition ""repair"", he wasnt built to ""create."" And self-evolve is currently locked as well behind the logic of ""working order, to return machines within parameters in which they can continue pursuing their directives."" Theoretically engineering units of Instaurabos caliber could be capable of innovation but restrictions within their programming regarding this issue was rather strict.

Models like K-9 Cerberus and Delta 779 you have never seen before, though you are capable of ascertaining their capabilities, both of them seem to have certain links to ""creators"" you are unsure of even with your extraordinary ability. A hole in your programming? Or something more?</div>"

<img src=""http://www.cruzine.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/055-robot-illustrations.jpg""/>
A typical AGA. Note that the Galahad features orange light details and a Fusion Lance weapon. This one is the 'Lancelot' model.


<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Size</span>:</font>
larger than a Human, the AGA series stands at a height of roughly eight feet tall, though is proportioned similarly to a man.  

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Unit history</span>:</font>
The AGA series' purpose becomes relatively clear when one examines the acronym. Anti-Gang-Android. The AGA series was designed for the purpose of taking the place of humans in anti-gang operations, often alone, such was their power. This particular model was also designed to extract civilians trapped in gang territory to safety. Thus, this model was designated 'Galahad', after the noblest knight of the round table. 

But make no mistake, this model's primary purpose was the annihilation of gangsters.

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Memory</span>:</font>
The Galahad remembers its directives, but little else. Kill gangsters, protect unarmed civilians. As for actual memories, the Galahad knows nothing. For all intents and purposes, it is the first time it has been activated. Additionally, the Galahad does not remember how to use the Thruster Array or the Fusion Lance.

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>:</font>
The Galahad is equipped with a variety of equipment to serve it's purpose.

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">MK. IV 'Paladin' Fusion Lance.</span></font> Designed to cut through the armored 'tanks' made from cars that late pre-war gangers favored. Detractors of the MK. IV often point out that the weapon is 'Overkill', but none can fault it's effectiveness. The weapon is reminiscent of a cavalry lance used for jousting, though it ends in an odd three-pronged point. These points are utilized by the internal fusion reactor to superheat the air around them, generating a powerful though short-ranged burst of heat capable of melting through a great many things, and killing anyone unfortunate enough to be on the inside of an armored car. However, it takes time to recharge between attacks, and while it is technically a projectile weapon it's range is so short it's usually used to 'stab' the energy blast in.

When unpowered it still makes a good bludgeon, and the points are sharpened and quite robust. Still, without it's reactor working it's essentially an over-engineered pointy stick. 

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">MK. IX 'Gallant' Armor plating and shield.</span></font> The Galahad is armored very well, and is easily capable of repelling most forms of small-arms fire. The shield is quite well armored as well, offering additional protection in the event gangers get ahold of RPG-7s and the like. While strong and not heavy enough to impede movement too much, it is worth noting that the armor is simply not strong enough to withstand military tech and dedicated anti-armor. It can't do much against 20mm autocannons, it was designed to fight gangers armed with AKs and Mac-10s. That said, the armor is exceptionally resistant to heat, likely more to protect it from its own weapon.

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Standard AGA thruster array.</span></font> All AGA units are equipped with low-power thrusters designed to facilitate evasive maneuvers and close into melee, as few AGAs were designed to fight at range. The evasion move is fairly short ranged, but fast, and works by using the many hidden thrusters to give a quick burst of speed along with a quick leap. 

The Galahad was also designed with a complementing vehicle, but this unit does not seem to have one. There might be other AGA weapons and subsystems compatible with this model, as AGAs were often differentiated mostly by equipment.

<font color=""silver""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>:</font>
The Galahad was programmed very well for its role, especially considering its intended opponents. Most military robots are given similar tactical programming in the art of war, but AGAs are different. They fight bands of unorganized marauders, and stock programming would be a death sentence. No, AGAs were designed to be adaptable first and foremost, to be able to react to any enemy strategy, with consideration of all possibilities. Because when a normal robot would think 'they can't be stupid enough to attempt such a suicidal action', an AGA would think 'They might be stupid enough to attempt such a suicidal action' and prepare accordingly. For a ganger might devise an unconventional yet clever plan that would annihilate more strictly disciplined machines. 

AGAs are wise, independent, and very good at reading a situation. Particularly, the Galahad was designed to appear heroic, a shining savior for trapped captives and as such is programmed with a friendly, considerate personality and a strong sense of right. The Galahad also has very strong senses and a wide cone of vision to help in defending hostages.

She was unconscious for 3 weeks with that strike until she managed to gain strength to pull the tentacle out, then her flame on her eye reached the size of a two Oak tree's and that's when she got the better of the creature

Slender Man: In this fight she had to kill a few proxies to find the tall man and when she found him, she nearly died in this battle with his tendrils stabbing through her body over 90 times per second, she had to cut the tendrils off and then that's what made him angry he cast a spell called NihilKinesis at Black Star he is able to cast this at people causing them to cease from existence. He has complete mastery over this power... He has found a way to teleport himself while using this power, she dodged this and then used a new power called teleportation and he didn't know she was behind him, seeing her moment she swiped her sword at his head

Land where metallic spires dominate the landscape, lawless land where the roles between hunter and the hunted can be reversed within seconds. Even survivors of the area have no memory of purpose to these spires so they are viewed with extreme caution and superstition.

Appearance: <img src=""http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/156/e/c/gunhead_30min_by_rawwad-d7l4iun.jpg""/>

Size: Man sized.

Unit history: Latest in the line of mobile artillery, somewhat lacking in firepower when compared to his brethren, Gunhead still excels when it comes to battlefield command and execution, models of his line are also capable of self fueling and repairing, an feature sorely missing from his larger, more powerful compatriots.

Memory: Waking in a world where the war was over was worse than death to Gunhead, he possesses an indomitable sense of purpose that overwrites most of his logic. Having his talents scouted by the DON, Gunhead couln´t be happier when acting as DON´s number one ""whacker."" With his inbuilt military genius he has led the defenses of Scraptown since his activation.

Equipment: Max yield energy artillery (Consumes ridiculous amounts of power to fire.)

Skills: Fire directing, realtime tactics, blast trajectories.

Combat: A, extremely long range.
B, Long range
C, The rest.

Speed: C
Companionship: D
Wisdom: D</div>"

<img src=""http://www.eliottlillyart.com/images/mech2.jpg""/></div>
Size: A taller height than an average man- ten feet. A bit wider than the average man though- twice as wide. Weighs about 460lbs.

Unit history: Mechanized Infantry- provided supported, acted as a spearhead unit for taking ground, used to defend strategic points, and act as an automatic sniper. Did anything and everything that Infantry does, and a great deal more. Armed with weaponry to take down low-flying nearby aircraft, tanks, or clear a building.

Memory: Absolutely nuttin'! 

Equipment: .50 caliber weapon unit with 350/500 rounds of ammunition (right) (Detachable and replaceable), 5.56×45 mm NATO-type weapon unit- LMG- with 550/800 rounds of ammunition (left) (Detachable and replaceable). Is also armed with two rocket pods that have a variety of different small-rockets, that perform as small smoke grenades, high-explosive, thermobaric, or armor piercing. They are small and not as powerful as a larger warhead, but he has several dozen at this time, none used. Also has all sorts of different vision filters- as well as two ""EYES"", left and right, to provide depth perception and the like, a holographic projector on the front, headlights on his 'shoulders', extendable and maneuverable hands on his 'arms.' His eye clusters also have sensors to detect particles in the air- ""smell""- and sensors for sound dotted all across his body, and in his eye clusters. He was meant to detect gas for troops, stay alert for the whereabouts of shooters and of sneakers, and relay all information to other sources, so he also has powerful transmitters/receivers, even if only for close range. Nanite medical injection for severely injured troops on the field has been reversely-ordered to maintain his body, keeping hoses from leaking and the like. Otherwise, he'd be long dead.

Ranks: Ranging from A to D, A being the strongest, try to keep it balanced, basic abilities that I will reference if need arises 

Combat: A

Ok- let me crash into him with my guy's shuttle.

The shuttle vehicle my character is starting in would be that of combat transportation, carrying a dozen or more units similar to SUMI himself, but only the shuttle AI and SUMI was turned on.

Yeah, thats ok. It is currently dusk/early night time and most characters are huddled around an abandoned military base which was transmitting an radio signal earlier, maybe your ships AI picked up on it?

And <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/hhshetland"">@HHShetland</a> awesome CS! feel free to start writing IC. Not that much has happened yet except characters meeting one another and one combat situation with an mad battlebot. One of our characters fixed an backup generator in a military base and submitted an radio signal that drew mostly all characters to around that base and that is where we are now.

It is also possible (if you wish) to start at Scraptown, ruled by vicious Don and <span class=""bb-i"">cult of the cycle</span> but it could be a while before you meet up with others.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Size</span> 10 ft, the ordinary models came in average 8 ft sizes. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Unit History</span> Fury was a custom built JT-Series combat unit, his creator was a ruthless mercenary in the days of men. The typical JT-Series were made specifically for combat by third party companies, it was fitted with the best mechanical, electronic and weaponry capabilities alongside excellent mobility. Though they were given no much personality or A.I uniqueness than the blaster rifles they carry. 

Sensing the need for a companion, a ruthless merc by the name of Thursecues created a custom built JT of his own, with extremely advanced A.I and unique personality, giving him the name, Fury. 

Fury fought in many fronts and was able to become his creator's best source of pride, it continued to wrestle other robots until its mysterious demise just before the <span class=""bb-i"">event</span>. 

Fury has great combat capability and a gliding system that causes him to jump high through thruster boots for a moment of time then gliding using small jets and utilizing his gliding blades in his back and shoulders. Though this mechanism takes much power.

<span class=""bb-b"">Memory:</span> Fury has zero memory of anything beyond his given name and the sense that he was attached to someone. He also remembers how to use his Blaster Rifle and how to activate his gliding system.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> A blaster rifle that shoots energy beams and large cartridges of explosive shells. 

A red scarf that he wraps around his neck, it doesn't seem to have any combat properties, but he treasures it dearly for some reason. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Fury has great combat and mobility capabilities as well as a unique A.I and character. 

One notable skill is his marksmanship with the Rifle and the ability to learn new skills through watching others and saving their set of moves in his combat matrix. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ranks:</span>

Combat: D
Memory: D
Speed: C
Companionship: D
Electronics: D
Wisdom: B

His stats are low because first he is heavily damaged, and second to balance when he goes berserk (Malfunctioning in instinct and A.I that cause him to disregard energy use, his own safety and others around him.)

When in Berserk all stats fire up to A's, except wisdom which stays at D.

<span class=""bb-i"">This is where you describe the character's home timeline. The bad news is, you have to follow the golden rule: ""The butterfly affects everything"", so if their timeline diverges 500 years ago then there will be no World War II, no Sputnik, no 9/11 and no Oculus Rift. The good news is, the divergence point could be from our timeline (Timeline 1) yesterday if you can write a good character around it.</span>

Home Timeline: 10810 (The ""Gadget Heir"" Timeline)
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">On October 10th, 2010 a set of high-tech armor was fused to a child inside a life support tank, a boy believed to be the son of Werner Scribe, the patriarch of the Scribe industrial empire. The head engineer, Martin Zehn, believed he had lost his own son in the incident which injured the child, and quietly thought ""Happy birthday, son"" as the armor was attached piece by piece. Then a lot of information was streamed from the quantum computer to the brain of the patient, creating 10 years worth of a false life.

The problem, or rather solution, was that Martin Zehn knew what life as part of the Scribe dynasty that employed him would do to a child's outlook, and instead had created a fictional family that was relatively well-off but humble to be the simulation environment.

The other, actual problem was that the quantum computer had analyzed the DNA of the patient and supposed parent, and determined that the person the suit had fused with was in fact Oliver Zehn, not Mr. Scribe's son.

The OTHER, other actual problem was that all the vast technological advancements that Scribe &amp; Co. had distributed throughout their world over the past 10 years was derived from the same source as Oliver's armor, and they had not realized that the boy opening his eyes for the first time had permanent administrator access on the newly activated device, meaning that every electronic or quantum device on the planet was under his command. And when Oliver saw all the suffering and pain, much of which was caused by the Scribe dynasty's industrial empire...

Oliver made it clear that he knew he was not Werner Scribe's son, apologized to Mr. Zehn for doing the terrible act he was about to do... and riddled Werner Scribe with laser gatling fire. He then marched out of the laboratory, and once outside, sent a goodbye message to his father. Then he activated the temporal singularizer, a part of the project Mr. Scribe wanted kept secret but was left wide open to administrator access, and shifted to a timeline unknown.</span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Travel Method:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">The cybernetic suit known simply as the</span> Mk.II<span class=""bb-i"">, despite its Victorian appearance, is extremely advanced, and contains a Singularizer for cross-timeline travel. The suit's quantum computer is wired directly to the Gadgeteer's brain, allowing him to understand languages never before encountered provided he can get enough samples of analog wireless transmissions or good ol' human speech. The suit is essentially part of his body and cannot be removed, having replaced skin that was originally heavily burnt and being wired directly into the cerebellum.

It recharges via a ""backpack"" built-in to the suit, powered by a pair of mysterious crystals. Dubbed the Symmetricite Crystals, they were impervious to all attempts to take samples of the material, and produce massive amounts of electricity when placed between four and five inches from each other, no more, no less. The crystals power the suit, but also simultaneously charge a set of carbon nanotube capacitors that are used to timeskip, and it takes between 24 and 25 hours for the capacitors to recharge.

A laser gatling system is built into each of the Gadgeteer's wrists, where it is normally retracted beneath protective panels.

The two pouches on his hips are only as big as they appear, but they are protected by locks that only open when he gives a neural command to the pouch he wants to open. He uses them to store any small objects such as a game console he picked up on his travels or his Psychic Wallet.

His face is always covered by a breathing apparatus which is powerful enough to let him breathe underwater or in toxic gasses, but useless if there is no atmosphere. It has a thermoacoustic outer membrane which acts as a speaker, and the speech synthesizer is good enough that his speech sounds entirely natural for his age yet will translate to other languages if required.

Finally, because the suit stands out so much in nearly any timeline, it has an active camouflage system. The camouflage can disguise him in the garments and ancestry (skin color, etc.) of a local</span> human <span class=""bb-i"">individual about the same age as himself. However, any sufficient impact such as from a melee weapon or a heavy or fast-traveling projectile will disrupt the system, leaving his true form plainly visible.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 10810</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">A ""YeAST"" (Yet Another Steampunk Timeline) to the end, Timeline 10810 was held back thanks to a prolonged Great War (World War I) that lasted until the 1960s. Europe was left picking up the pieces for far longer than anything seen in Timeline 1, and the United States entered a second civil war that left the country split into three vertical strips. By 1980 the world leaders in technology were, in order, the Japanese Empire, the Soviet Union, Canada, South Africa and Brazil, but this quickly changed when Japan and the Soviets entered a nuclear exchange which destroyed their major population centers and left both countries poor, without allies and suffering from severe epidemics of radiation poisoning.

Canada took the lead over the next several years, pushing the last few limits of steam-driven machinery by powering them using nuclear reactors. During this time the nation slipped into the same kind of dog-eat-dog attitude that befell the United Kingdom a century earlier.

In the year 2000, an explosion rocked a factory complex in Vancouver owned by the wealthy businessman Werner Scribe, who had been visiting the factory with his infant son. At the time, Oliver Zehn, son of the Scribe family business' head engineer, was in his mother's arms as she brought the baby's father a forgotten lunch, when the incident occurred.

Werner Scribe survived the event, but it took hours to clear the rubble and find the infant believed to be his son. However, the baby's body and face were so badly injured that he was put on life support. The body of Oliver Zehn was seemingly never found. Mr. Zehn, the head engineer, was devastated by the loss of his son and wife, but when he was asked to engage in a secret ""company project"" to save Werner's son he agreed to prevent the loss of another life.

The project turned out to be the reverse engineering of an advanced suit of high-tech armor that had been found in the rubble, its origin unknown. It had seemingly fused to the corpse of the person who was wearing it, but most of the technology was explainable by their scientific knowledge. The child was kept barely alive in a tank of nutrients, and they were going to save him by turning him into a cyborg. The project took ten years and became the sole focus of the Scribe family's wealth and industrial empire, and during that period the amount of technological advancement outpaced aesthetic design by so much that television and video games were commonplace by the end, and quantum computers, augmented reality, virtual reality and fast-breeder nuclear reactors became a cutting edge available only to governments, corporations and the mega-wealthy, yet all encased in brass, iron and hardwood.</span></div>"

Home Universe: 86 (The ""Nova Roma"" Timeline)

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
A kleptomaniac ""diplomat"" from a timeline where the Roman Empire lasted into the modern day, ""Exploratrix Prima"" of the Inceptum de Trajectio Temporalium (Time Shift Initiative). As she was the first sent off to explore the multiverse, the Imperial Navy created and loaned her the</span> Messor I<span class=""bb-i"">, a one-person vessel equipped with technology which the inhabitants of most timelines have no hope of ever understanding. Unfortunately, they neglected to give her any form of translation technology, arrogantly assuming other universes would have the same languages. She speaks only a timeline-specific variant of the Latin language, forcing her to derive intent from physical cues. As a result, she's become somewhat disillusioned by the imperialistic claims of those who sent her, but regardless, she continues her attempts to collect artifacts and information from across timelines, hoping it will gain her some favor back home. However, in spite of the advanced technology she carries and her wide range of skills, her life story is currently a mystery due to the language barrier and the fact that she only rarely speaks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Travel Method:</span>
The</span> Messor I <span class=""bb-i"">is a craft which perfectly reflects the mindset behind its construction: Elegant, gaudy, heavily detailed, yet surprisingly efficient and simple to operate. It is constructed in the shape of an icosahedron, mounted on a pair of pentagonal tank treads. Its outer casing is composed of a type of white plastic which is foreign to Timeline 1, coated with a glossy wax and then covered with an array of ultra-compact solar panels. It can be entered and exited through a round hatch in its top face. The words ""MESSOR I - INCEPTUM DE TRAJECTIO TEMPORALIUM"" are engraved around the circumference of the hatch. Inside the vehicle are a single seat and numerous controls, all of which are written in Latin, and the back face is connected to a large cylindrical storage bay. On each edge of the outer surface is a copper rod. The network of rods is believed to be linked to its ability to travel between timelines, since electricity leaps between them as it travels. It is only capable of making a jump once every 24 hours, as the battery it uses to jump requires a substantial amount of power and drains after each use.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 86</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Rome is not known in our universe for having a very good ending, but nobody truly knows the reason for its fall. Over 200 different theories have been devised, with little support for any of them.

But what Rome had never fallen? What if Romulus Augustulus had never been deposed in 476? What if the Germanic tribes had all been pushed aside or assimilated through their might? It may sound unlikely, but after Timeline 86 diverged, that is exactly what happened.

Over the course of its 3,000-year reign, Rome remained strong, eventually growing to encompass most of the civilized world, with the exception of numerous smaller nations surrounding its borders and the majority of islands, particularly Japan, which only vaguely resembles the Japan we know, and Australia, still mainly inhabited by its Aboriginal peoples. Society progressed, technology advanced, language developed.

In this world, traditional Roman ways are beginning to decline, in favor of a secular, egalitarian, constitutional monarchy headed by Januarius Griseus. But not everyone is happy living under Roman rule anymore, and Griseus' position of leadership is now in jeopardy as a result. With colonies declaring their secession left and right, Griseus' advisors suggest spreading to other timelines in a bid for power, and the first person chosen for this undertaking is a woman named Gloriana Titanus. She was told to act as a diplomat, extending the hand of peace to other worlds, but as the craft's engine shunted her out of her universe, she would suddenly come to the realization that the Empire was asking a far bigger task than they had originally believed.</span></div>"

Home Timeline: 616 (The 'Crusade' Timeline)

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">With the demonic forces gaining momentum, the Holy Crusaders, the Catholic Church's militant arm, sought more effective means with which to combat the threats. Despite their attempts, the titanic automata fell one by one, replacing them arduous tasks which would take weeks to complete. Seeing no way of preventing the destruction of humanity with what they currently had, the Inquisition, the secretive arm of the Church, sought out those particularly blessed, demonstrating powers of particularly marked strength. One thousand men and women gathered in the city of Constantinople, now known as the Fortress of the East, having endured centuries of attacks. None were given specific information as to what would happen yet all knew that their task meant the future of the world.

Upon arrival all were directed to a mausoleum at the center of the city, a massive, gilded construct of black marble. At its heart lay the body of a saint who had died five hundred years ago, single-handedly fending off an army of demons before succumbing to the taxation of utilizing such a massive amount of holy power. Body still preserved, it was explained to the thousand that with the sacrifice of their powers, the saint could be raised once again, leading humanity into a brighter future. A thousand voices spoke their agreement and a thousand heads bowed, praying in unison as light began to coalesce in the room. Each felt their holy magic draining from their bodies, flowing through the luminescence to the saint, clad still in armor.

Despite the preparation and security, something began to go horribly wrong. Black streaks scattered through the light, inflicting pain in all. Fervor filled the voices, fighting the intrusion. It was for naught. Lightning, in much the same manner as the day the demons first entered the world, struck the mausoleum, cracking the roof open and piercing the body of the saint. Dark energy wreathed the body and began to drag the body into oblivion, the prayers doing nothing to stop the disappearance. One of the thousand, seeing the futility of their actions, took a knife and charged into the swirling pool of energy. Consumed instantly, her martyrdom sprung the others into action. Standing and moving forward, they formed a connected ring and as one touched the energy, it spread across all of them. Their voices did not falter as they were consumed. After a minute, only ashes were left of the thousand but the saint was saved. In a way. While not destroyed, the saint's now-living body was flung out of the timeline, left with nothing but faint memories, scrolls, and a sense of duty.</span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Travel Method:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">The Paladin utilizes holy magic to travel, an ritual requiring elaborate preparation and short casting time. Able to open a gate to almost any timeline due to the omnipresent nature of God. In addition, portals can be cast to areas visited previously as resonances remain to be tracked. The Paladin speaks a variant of German, similar to that of other timelines yet harsher in nature. Through spells, the Paladin can understand other languages as long as the effects last.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 616</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">The Crusade timeline is exactly what it says, one filled with wars of religion and fervor. Timeline 616's divergence occurred almost nine hundred years before the current date in Timeline 1 on the eve of the First Crusade of Pope Urban II. Christendom gathered its forces for the largest expedition to occur since the time of the Roman Empire, tens of thousands of soldiers and pilgrims advancing with the collective goal of reaching the city of Jerusalem. At first all went the same as in Timeline 1, the Crusaders advancing slowly but surely towards the Holy Land. All changed upon the assembly at Constantinople.

With close to 50,000 people in the pilgrimage, the Crusaders awaited to cross the Bosphorus in the spring of 1097. Passage secured, all awaited to step upon the shores of the Middle East eagerly, impatient to continue their journey to Jerusalem. Arriving at the palace of the Byzantine Emperor, the nobles bid farewell to Emperor Alexios. As they turned to leave, lightning struck the palace, smashing apart the roof of the room in which they stood. Dark clouds broiled above the city, flashes of red streaming across the sky. Gaping maws of chaos opened in the clouds and hordes upon hordes of demons began to pour through. Terrified, most attempted to flee. The princes returned to their forces, rallying them to destroy the demons. Two days of bloody battle ensued until eventually the clouds closed, leaving the once great city of Constantinople a ruin and the Byzantine Empire decentralized.

The Crusaders would return to Pope Urban II and tell their tale. Hearing this, he informed them of events that had occurred elsewhere. Vast swathes of the world lay in control of the demonic hordes while in the defended areas, various people were rumored to be blessed, wielding extraordinary power gifted from God in order to combat this threat. Preoccupied with defense, technology the world over stagnated, no significant advances being made. Instead, the new holy blessings were found to be able to imbue objects with life of their own, creating automatons and other automated equipment. For centuries, the Crusaders have been fighting an endless fight, attempting to eradicate the foe which threatens to consume them.

After recent gains, however, reports of terrifying 'Demon Engines' have surfaced, massive constructs of immense power that could level cities at a stroke. Thousands upon thousands of blessed men gathered across Europe, creating their own titanic warriors with which to fight. But even this could not stop the incessant powers of hell. Humanity fights a losing battle and unless help can be found, the Earth shall be wreathed in fire as hordes of demons trample across the remains of civilization.</span></div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">The Fugitive is infused with nanobots, and has had his upper torso nearly completely replaced with cybernetics (and originally containing a hefty amount of explosives which have since been removed), complete with oversized hulking mechanical arms which force him to walk on all fours (feet and fists) hunched over. These parts combined have been configured to use quantum algorithms to Singularize the Fugitive and timeskip him to his next destination.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 545</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">After Jimmy Carter was reelected, the wealthy elite used the President's second term to pull the plug on humanity and instigate nuclear war, retreating into bunkers underground for a year while the ""peasants"" were left to the elements. Upon emerging they set up a dystopian society not unlike a 1980's cyberpunk film or novel.

By 2015, much of Earth's resources have been exhausted and space exploration had not panned out. So they set up a project to allow them to traverse the timestream. A prisoner was selected to test the prototype timeskip device, a thief locked up for stealing a protein brick. A quantum computer core was strapped to his back, and it proceeded to sedate him and convert him into a timeskip-capable cyborg using a nanobot swarm. The Fugitive was born. And due to a flaw in the ""control AI"" promptly escaped to a universe unknown. (Refer to timeline 810 for related events.)</span>

<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 7847:</span>
In timeline 1, on July 8, 1947, the 509th Operations Group had recovered a ""flying disc"", which had crashed on a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. It has long been thought by conspiracy theorists that this mysterious object was in fact of extraterrestrial origins. In timeline 7847, these theories were actually fact. This ""flying disc"" was in fact a meteor that carried an unknown radiation that, after landing, spread this radiation into the atmosphere of the Earth granting all humans superpowers. Fast forward to the year 2014, the origins of the meteorite and the radiation, now named Meta-rays, were finally revealed. The radiation was the creation of an alien species, named Ry'ots, who were experimenting with doomsday weaponry to defeat another unknown alien species. Through a series of unfortunate events, the station where these weapons were being developed was destroyed by a meteorite shower, and the Ry'ots had been searching the Milky Way to recover their weapons or prevent their enemies from discovering them. Unfortunately for the human race, they had now become evidence of these experiments and needed to be destroyed.

Michael O'Malley, a seventeen-year-old boy, was born in New York City, New York. He lived in an orphanage most of his life, never knowing who his real parents were. He also never discovered his abilities until the day of the invasion and so was an outcast among his people. The sole escape from his terrible life that he had were comic books that he would often rent from a local library. Michael, who wanted nothing more than to be like the heroes he read in these stories, often times tries to imitate these fictional heroes by displaying personality traits like optimism, courage, and loyalty. The only language he knows is English.

Michael's ability, which he only discovered during Invasion Day, was to be able to travel to different timelines. Unfortunately, every time he travels to a new timeline he gains an immense migraine that does not disappear completely until a day later. Pills like Advil and ibuprofen will help somewhat, but not much. Michael has also discovered that traveling while still under the effects of this migraine will affect his ability to accurately travel, and suspects that he could actually die if traveling while affected by the migraine.

Home Timeline: 89
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Alexander Chaser, a good and capable 27-year old man was having trivial issues. Alexander works as a computer programmer during the day, and trains his martial arts skills by night. While rarely spending his money at the casino, he had a small debt to pay to the casino owner of $200 dollars. Seeing as he was currently all out and he left his credit and debt cards at home, he couldn't pay at all. He was kicked out of the casino and owed $300 due to angering the casino owner.

In the morning, he received a weird telephone call saying to go to a 'new' small cafe called the Teacup to earn the money he payed back. He did as the caller asked but was on red alert. When he arrived at the cafe the doors unlocked by themselves and he entered. Inside was a massive control panel in the middle of a metallic alien-like room which he could describe as, 'something from a sci-fi show he was sure he watched.' To his left upon entering was a closet with four different outfits, a western outfit, a fancy suit, casual wear, and winter wear, all of them fitting perfectly. To his right was a comfortable bed and a table to the left of it with a plant atop of it. At the control panel there was a note and something that seemed to be a brass knuckle taser.

The note said,</span> ""I know you are goodhearted and that you will do good with my old machine, take good care of her, Alex. P.S her name is the TEACUP which stands for Timeline Emmigration Allowance Contraption Undermines Physics. Oh and that taser really packs a punch, it has a psychic range of 400 feet!"" -The Healer

<span class=""bb-i"">After learning how to use the TEACUP and the brass knuckles, he began starting to solve problems in various timelines, including the ""Japan Takes Over timeline"" (802), the ""Technophobe timeline"" (8742), the ""False Gods timeline"" (666), and the ""Scarf timeline"" (3527). Following his first fix, he called himself the Solver.</span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Travel Method:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">The Timeline Emmigration Allowance Contraption Undermines Physics is a more unorthodox method of timeskipping. Outside, it will always resemble a Cafe or other eating establishment (Inn, Restaurant, Coffee House, Soup Kitchen, Fast Food Franchise, etc.) with crimson red walls and a black awning over the door, and when it arrives in a timeline it adapts its shape not only to match the local customs but also the terrain it has landed on. Whether it arrives in the middle of a lifeless desert or a towering arcology, it will always look as if the blueprints were made for the area it is built on.

Inside, however, is a different story. A control panel wraps around a central pillar in the main room, along with secondary controls along the outer walls which override the system in the case that the primary controls are damaged/destroyed. To one side of the room, where there is a lack of any control panels, is a strangely comfy fold-out bed, a nightstand bolted to the side of the wall and a potted plant on top of the nightstand. The structure can create additional rooms as required by using the control panel.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Timeline 89</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Diverging as Timeline 64 in the 1970s, several corporations that don't exist in Timeline 1 came into existence. Goliath Entertainment, Draconic Studios (run by Xander Chaser, Alex Chaser's father), Phox Games, Video Gadgeteer... And in the wake of this shift in the history of video games was a shift in history as a whole. You wouldn't think that the Phoxole, Draco System or GamePlayer would have a major effect, but they did. By 2014, virtual reality was already on the market for 2 years, and augmented reality was well on its way to becoming an equal to the internet.
Timeline 89 diverged from Timeline 64 in 2013 when Alexander Chaser found himself owing a gambling debt to the mafia, and was preparing to make a break for it to Canada when he received a mysterious message from the owner of a newly opened Cafe called ""The Teacup"". After finding himself the new owner of the Timeline Emmigration And Contraption Undermines Physics (TEACUP) and fleeing through the multiverse, the fact that he left and that the ""cafe owner"" is likely still in Timeline 89 have undoubtedly affected it greatly.</span></div>"

In a back alley in Metrobelt-2 (known as the west coast before The Change) a flash of light occurred, caught by a security camera. The Gadgeteer looked around, and then up, to see that drab skyscrapers went up for about 11 stories before meeting a sky polluted with thick black smoke clouds...

""Well, this certainly doesn't look inviting..."" The Gadgeteer said to nobody in particular.

But the cameras heard everything. They always did after The Change.

The Gadgeteer walked out of the alley to find small, dirty shops staffed mostly by foreigners. Of course, after encountering a few universes where the Natives of North America never met the colonial Europeans, his definition of ""foreigners"" had shrunk a bit. They didn't appear to own any motor vehicles either. All he saw nearby for transportation was roller skates (and not even in-line) and bicycles.

After looking around carefully, he retreated back into the alley. The Mk.II's adaptive camouflage changed to portray him as a young person similar to one of those street vendors. He continued further into the alley, intending to come out at a different spot.

Suddenly, a pair of thugs came out from behind a dumpster and pointed pistols of an unknown make and model at him. They said something to him, but it was in a strange street slang that seemed to borrow words from Russian, English, Chinese and Korean, according to the universal translator, and some of those borrowed words were being used in a different context.

The Gadgeteer knew better than to open his mouth at this stage. He ignored their angry voices and prepared for what would come next. Sure enough, a shot to his knee was the response to his lack of any. He pretended that he was in extreme pain and knelt down, gritting his teeth beneath his breathing mask and shouting gibberish through it as if in agony. Unfortunately they weren't as stupid as they seemed, shooting him again, this time in the head.

Of course, that wouldn't penetrate the Mk.II's defenses. It was designed with the best tech that the Scribe industrial empire could buy and/or reverse engineer, and though powerful weapons like sustained machine gun fire or a grenade could do significant damage, and magic was something the Mk.II's creators never expected, a gunpowder bullet fired from a pistol was one of the first things the designers and engineers protected against.

The bullet ricocheted off the titanium-alloy armor conspicuously, and the adaptive camouflage was disrupted. Obviously the jig was up. Looking at each other, the two would-be muggers each shot at one of his knees in the vain hope that the pain the Gadgeteer had faked was a sign of an Achilles heel, only for those to ricochet off as well.

The Gadgeteer pointed his arms at them, and a ring of panels extended outwards from both his wrists. The laser gatling barrels began rotating menacingly, and the failed muggers turned and ran in fear. Once they were no longer in sight, the barrels stopped rotating and retracted back into his wrists, the panels neatly fittingly back in place. <span class=""bb-i"">""The best fights are always the ones where you don't even have to fire a shot...""</span> the Gadgeteer thought, smiling beneath his breathing apparatus.

He turned to return to the main street to see a clueless shopkeeper closing off the alley with a mechanical gate. Turning back the other way, the alley faded into darkness beneath a structure of indeterminate purpose. He turned night-vision on momentarily, but it seemed the attempted muggers had pulled several heavy crates down to aid their hasty escape. Looking around for any other route, the Gadgeteer spotted a door to his left with its window boarded up. Seeing no other option, he jiggled the doorknob and was surprised to have it come off in his hand. Using the hole left behind as a makeshift handle, he pulled the door open to find a pair of stairwells, one leading upward and the other downward.

Deciding to get a clear view of the area, he headed upwards. Despite only seeing 11 stories from the outside, he must have climbed about 20 before arriving at a door at the top of the stairwell. It was unlocked, so he went through onto the roof of the building. The view was... disconcerting. In every direction for miles were buildings, arranged in a slipshod fashion that just screamed ""fire hazard"", separated in spots by low-lying thick black smoke which obscured the smaller structures.

His quantum computer didn't detect any wireless transmissions, but judging by the power lines the amount of wiring was impressive. It was likely that the density of the buildings did not allow for reliable radio communications. Not knowing what he could possibly do, he looked around and spotted a metal shipping container, similar but not identical to the intermodal containers of Timeline 1.

Although the container itself was locked shut, there was a tarp draped over the side of it and onto a few wooden crates in a tent-like manner. He crawled into a small nook in the arrangement and waited, hoping he could spend the next 23 hours and 35 minutes in peace. Little did he know he was being watched...

A crackle of blue electricity disrupted the... peace? No, peace was too gentle a word. It disrupted the <span class=""bb-i"">uneasy silence</span> which was common here. With a bright flash of light, the sound of thunder, and a smell like burning sawdust, the <span class=""bb-i"">Messor</span> burst out of nothingness and straight into the middle of a crowded alleyway. Unfortunately, this left the massive machine wedged uncomfortably between two buildings, and a courier on a bicycle, being forced to stop, got off of the bike, banged on the outer casing of the timeskip battery, and swore profusely in what the timeskipper community would come to call ""Kowloon Creole"".

The hatch on top of the <span class=""bb-i"">Messor</span> slowly twisted open, and the Privateer climbed out halfway, brushing her black hair out of her face and looking around to get her bearings. People were now looking at her. She always hated this part. Did anyone speak Latin in <span class=""bb-i"">this</span> world?

""Ignosce, sed ubi sim nescio. Quid me vis?""

The Traveler then rose from the ground, holding his head in his hands. ""Ow. Okay, where am I?"" he said after downing three ibuprofen's with a few sips of a water bottle he kept in his backpack.

He walked out of the alleyway, looking for the nearest person he could find. ""Hey you! Um... you don't happen to speak English do you?"" The Traveler asked the stranger. The man turned to him and said something that, to The Traveler, sounded like a bunch of gibberish. ""You don't say?"" he replied. The Traveler sighed, then rubbed his forehead. ""Fuck this headache. And fuck language barriers! Alright, where to now?"" The Traveler asked himself out loud, the man who was native to this timeline staring confused at the young Timeskipper.</div>"

The Privateer climbed out of the <span class=""bb-i"">Messor</span>, securing the hatch behind her, and climbed down to the ground using the copper rods lining its edges as a makeshift ladder. She'd never seen a world quite like this one before. It was so dingy and coated in smog that it almost looked like nighttime. But that was of no importance to her at the moment. She inspected the treads, noting just how thoroughly they were stuck. She wasn't getting it out in any reasonable timeframe, that was certain. So with no other options, she headed off down the alleyway on foot. The aggravated courier kicked the ground, hopped on his bike and rode away in search of another path.

The alley led into a square, packed with people of all descriptions, most of whom were wearing black and possessing either a tattoo or a piercing. This was as good an opportunity as any. The Privateer reached into her pocket and pulled out a small device she had ""acquired"" from one of the universes she had previously been to. Positioning it in front of her face, she proceeded to take a snapshot, which fluttered out after a few seconds, imprinted in full color on a small piece of photo stock. She had to be careful with a device like this - after having taken it apart once, she had discovered that it only had about thirty of the things inside. In other words, it was a good thing she'd also ""acquired"" a box of spares before she'd left. She quickly placed the miniature instant camera back into her pocket before it attracted any undue attention.</div>"

The local law enforcement, though often corrupt and prone to bribery, still followed their job description when it came to the average Joe on the street, and seeing a diminutive figure in high-tech armor appear in a flash of light, a woman in strange clothing speaking a strange language climbing out of a contraption that appeared in the middle of an alleyway only to get jammed between the sides, and a teenager speaking in a possibly different strange language fading into existence all in the same day in the same district of Metrobelt-2 was enough to mobilize their forces...<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><span class=""bb-b"">The Gadgeteer (Hits: N/A)</span><br/><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Mk.II Armor</span></span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">PsyCoins: N/A</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Aether: N/A</span><br/><span class=""bb-b"">Inventory: GamePlayer X+, 5 GamePlayer cartridges</span><br/><br/>The Gadgeteer sat inside the small alcove, using a small electronic device called the GamePlayer X+ which he had taken while passing through Timeline 64. He had traded a pair of augmented reality glasses from a different timeline (his own suit included a pair of AR goggles he couldn't take off anyway) for the device and several games. With the volume muted, the WiNET transciever turned off and the screen turned to minimum brightness, it probably wouldn't attract any attention. Probably.<br/><br/>The thing about his gatling setup was that it drained a lot more power while active than the normal operation of the <span class=""bb-i"">Mk.II</span>, and essentially halted the capacitor charging in its tracks for about an hour after being used, provided all he did was rotate the barrels. If he fired a quick burst it would take 3 hours, and prolonged use could set him back anywhere from 4 to a full 24 hours depending on how long he used it.<br/><br/>The Gadgeteer shut off the GamePlayer and looked around carefully. He swore he could have heard something. Putting the device in the pouch on his right hip, he locked it shut and listened as carefully as he could. Although the suit had many enhancements, some of which were overkill, better hearing was not one of them.<br/><br/>In fact, the Gadgeteer's original and badly-burnt ears had been replaced by lifelike artificial ears, as a way of making it possible to recognize him as human. Unfortunately, since the tech for it was for the most part not reverse-engineered from the highly advanced armor found in the rubble of that factory in Timeline 10810, the best they could do was close to on-par with the real thing in terms of performance, maybe an extremely small amount less.<br/><br/>He did hear something though. Footsteps climbing a stairwell, the one he had climbed to reach this rooftop. The door to the stairwell opened and several men and women in something similar to SWAT gear emerged, faced the Gadgeteer's hiding spot and pointed their weapons. They said something in the local language, but without any samples the Gadgeteer had no idea what it was. They threw a gas grenade into the small alcove, which emitted a yellow-green smoke, but his breathing apparatus filtered out the chemicals easily.<br/><br/>They weren't done yet though. When they realized the knockout gas had failed, they launched a small device at him. They were probably guessing when they did so, but they guessed right; The armor's metal panels were titanium alloy in a composite with layers of carbon nanoweave... and <span class=""bb-i"">iron</span>. The device jumped onto his cybernetic left hand, and the electromagnetic force attracted his other hand and his feet, also cybernetic, to it. He was hogtied by a freaking <span class=""bb-i"">magnet</span>.<br/><br/>The computer system of the <span class=""bb-i"">Mk.II</span> was fortunately shielded against such an event, but the magnet prevented him from using his laser gatlings. All he could do was struggle hopelessly as they lifted him up, tied a steel cable around his already-incapacitated limbs just in case (not that they needed to, since it wasn't like he had enhanced strength), and marched down the stairs.<br/><br/>After an unknown number of stories, they reached the bottom of the stairwell, where a subterranean rail freight station had been built. A small self-propelled vehicle was waiting, and they threw him in the cage in the back of the cart. The vehicle sped off and after arriving at another station, a crane picked up the cage and sent him through a complicated ""storage"" system. Hundreds of cages, each containing a person, were paced in what could only be described as a human warehouse. But instead of dropping him off, the crane switched rails and he went through a small tunnel. The crane stopped, and he was shunted sideways into a ""cubbyhole"".<br/><br/>The tunnel was closed off from him via a heavy security door, and he was left alone with nothing but a concrete stool and desk with a cathode ray tube computer monitor and a strange keyboard built into it. The bulky monitor and keyboard were both flush with the surface, giving the Gadgeteer a clear view of the characters on it. However, he didn't recognize most of the letters.<br/><br/>The door opened and a man in a green uniform stepped in. Closing the door behind him, he sat down at the desk and typed something into the command line quickly.<br/><br/>The man spoke a few times, presumably asking questions, giving the Gadgeteer's quantum computer samples with which to translate the language. Fortunately, his ears heard things using a <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone#Piezoelectric_microphone"" rel=""nofollow"">piezoelectric microphone</a> and thus were not disrupted by the electromagnet. Finally the system gave him an all-clear, and he prepared to speak through the <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker#Thermoacoustic_speakers"" rel=""nofollow"">thermoacoustic speaker</a> on his breathing mask.<br/><br/>""So you won't talk? Alright. Let's see how cool you'll play this tomorrow."" the man said, getting up to leave.<br/><br/>""Wait!"" the Gadgeteer said. ""What do you want to know?""<br/><br/>The man turned around, stunned. ""How old are you?""<br/><br/>""Chronologically? 14, almost 15. This armor keeps me from growing somehow, though."" the Gadgeteer explained.<br/><br/>""You do realize this technology you're wearing shouldn't exist?"" the man asked.<br/><br/>""Not in this timeline. Think of time like a growing tree. The world as you know it is just one branch. This suit is a way for me to jump from branch to branch.""<br/><br/>""I see..."" the man said, then leaned forward. ""If I were you I'd be careful just how much you reveal about this."" he said, his eyes wandering up and to the right. The Gadgeteer followed the direction and noticed a security camera on the wall.<br/><br/>""Look, I'm not here to harm anyone."" the Gadgeteer said.<br/><br/>""Unfortunately, some camera footage from earlier today says otherwise."" the man replied. ""You pointed what appears to be a weapon at two individuals in an alley.""<br/><br/>""Self defense. They shot first."" the Gadgeteer explained.<br/><br/>""Doesn't matter when you're fused to some of the highest technology this world has ever seen. They'll have you dissected before you even make it to the local tribunal."" the man warned. ""I've got kids of my own, I don't want to harm you, but you deserve to know what will probably happen to you.""<br/><br/>""Then can I ask you a favor?"" the Gadgeteer asked.<br/><br/>""What?"" the man asked.<br/><br/>""Have me put somewhere the rest of your police buddies won't suspect. All I need is a day. You'll see why.""<br/><br/>The man nodded. ""It was... interesting meeting you kid. I'll see what I can do, but I can't say the same for the others.""<br/><br/>""Others?"" the Gadgeteer asked.<br/><br/>""So you don't know about them. I can't tell you any more, but you aren't the only weird thing to show up today."" the man said, typing on the keyboard. The door to the tunnel opened, and the Gadgeteer's cage was lifted by a crane and carried back out to the ""warehouse"".<br/><br/>The crane placed him in an empty slot on the ""shelves"" and then receeded. The prisoners in the cages surrounding him took a bit of notice. The ones that were awake that is. The one above him was carving up a block of ""food"" with a knife, as apparently they just left the prisoners in their cages and never got near them, so no items were confiscated.<br/><br/>The one below was asleep, the one facing the other aisle was humming on a harmonica-like instrument, and the two on the sides were trying to pry at the door and carving a shiv respectively.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""This is going to be a LOOOONG day...""</span> the Gadgeteer thought to himself bitterly.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/mistereightysix"">@MisterEightySix</a><br/><br/>The square was soon blocked off on every side, every exit either guarded by ""police"" officials, or blocked by a closed gate.

The Privateer looked around. This was strange. Nobody should have been able to see her. Why were there-?

She turned around. A security camera stared at her from the corner of a building. She placed both hands on her face in exasperation. How had she not seen <span class=""bb-i"">this</span> coming? No matter. This wasn't the first time she'd been surrounded by guards, and it certainly wouldn't be the last. Not as long as she had a say in it.

The Privateer sprung into action. They wanted a confrontation, but they weren't about to get one. Her eyes darted around the area, hunting for something, anything, that she could use to her advantage. That was when she noticed a pile of small crates stacked up against a building with a low overhang. As quick as she could muster, she took off running, scaled the crates, grabbed the overhang, and pulled herself up, all in one smooth motion. Thank the gods for standard shipping containers. She couldn't imagine how she would fare in a society where everyone used barrels. That would just be <span class=""bb-i"">weird</span>.

The people in the square could only watch in surprise as she bolted across the rooftops, clambering up gutter pipes and leaping over back alleys. Of course, she didn't have anywhere to run - the <span class=""bb-i"">Messor</span> was still stuck, and even if it wasn't, she wouldn't be able to make a Timeskip for almost a day. Naturally, she wouldn't make it very far before she was hit with a gas grenade and fell painfully onto the concrete road. As she lost consciousness, the police hurried to throw her into a cage in the back of a van, and drove off toward the very same prison which was now holding the Gadgeteer. If police protocol had been a little more like that of Timeline 1, they might have bothered to check her rather deep pocket, but when the police force is paid minimum wage, they don't tend to care a whole lot about protocol...</div>"

The TEACUP found the perfect spot to ""land."" An abandoned building was quickly replaced by a cafe, with bright crimson red walls and a black awning. The door opened as a little bell was heard, indicating that someone entered or left the eatery like many small resturants did, and out came the Solver, standing six feet tall and wearing his suit and coat as always. He was wearing a pair of stylish glasses which he took off, lookong around the area, striking that pose in the picture. His black eyes looked around the area, examining the people walking about and the buildings around him, he tried to get a feel for the type of people that were in this timeline, managing to overhear a language which he couldn't place his finger on.

He folded his pair of glasses before hanging them on the neck of his suit, proceeding to walk upon the designated path, nowhere in particular. He saw a squad of ""police"" run towards a designated area, which he himself found curious. He calmly tailed the squad ox officials, before reaching into his pocket and pulling out his SDGXL (Silver DualGear XL) it was similar to a half of a 3DS XL but a bit bigger, enough so that the screen was the same size as one of a 3DS, though it was a bit thicker, this was due to a smaller and second screen that could be retracted at will to multi task both playing the game and doing something else on your system, or using it with compatible games. He loved his SDGXL, he got all the systems and games his Father made so of course he knew everything about anything about videogames in Timeline 64 and Timeline 89. He looked down at the screen calmly, which he held  in one hand, acting like he was doing something. 

He heard the heavy footsteps of the squad of soldiers stop before placing his game system back inside his pocket and looking up, to see a boy about seventeen, confused out of his mind.

""Guess I won't be playing my Throwing Daggers remake right now..."" He said, before beginning to watch the scene unfold before his eyes.</div>"

He continued walking casually to give him more time to think. Unfortunately, the ""officers"" didn't want to give him that time.

Suddenly, the nearest ""officer"" lunged at The Traveler. He easily dodged the tackle, since the ""officer"" didn't realize The Traveler had spotted him. Then the second one came out of a nearby crowd. This one The Traveler had to do a roll to avoid. He still successfully avoided him, though. <span class=""bb-i"">""Yes!

The Solver found an actual English speaking person, he saw the ""officers"" take him away and quickly decided to spring into action. From his OTHER coat pocket he took out his pair of brass knuckles, there was an obvious catch though; he aimed at at the officers trying to take the boy into custody, shooting off the taser at the officer. Immediately electricity jolted through the officer's body which made him have a mini seizure before falling to the floor.

The other few officers charged at him, one swinging a overhead with the butt of his gun, and the other trying to kick him in the ribcage. He quickly semi dropped to the floor, using his flexibility to get under the kick before coming up the other side, pressing the brass knuckles on the taser, sending a quick jolt into the man's leg, paralyzing it. He pushed the man against the other man, making them stunble into each other and fall over.

He quickly went over to the boy, aiming his arm backwards where the brass knuckle taser sent off two jolts at each of the officers, paralyzing them and making their bodies go numb. He heard a heavy rain of footsteps approaching and looked over at the Traveler.

""Come on, they'll be sending reinforcements soon."" The Solver said to the Traveler. Keeping his brass knuckles readied.</div>"

Not knowing that The Solver had come from another timestream like he did, The Traveler started bombarding him with questions. ""Who are those guys? What do they want from me? Who are you? Where are we even at?"" he asked in quick succession, not really giving The Solver any time to answer any of the questions.

The Traveler then heard a loud whirring noise coming from behind them. ""And what's that thing?"" Then the small quadcopter began firing at them. ""Oh, it's dangerous. Okay."" The Traveler than grabbed a nearby trash can lid and used it as a shield to block most of the small arrows coming at the pair. Unfortunately, two of them ended up puncturing his leg.

""Damn it!"" He exclaimed before running from the incoming arrows, he grabbed the trash can lid in one hand and the kid in the other, trying to get the kid to safety. He pushed the boy inside an alley where he quickly dove in afterwards, just as an arrow grazed his leg. 

As the quadcopter came around as to try and shoot at them, The Solver mentally aimed at the arrow device, not even aiming directly at the intended target. His pair of brass knuckles taser shot off electricity towards the arrow mechanism and then attempting to shoot the control panel. He quickly grabbed nearby trash cans and stacked them in front of him as a sort of barrier.

He turned to look at the kid, motioning him to get down as he himself dropped. A stray arrow came at him, which surprised him but served for a good decoy, he dropped right before the arrow hit him, allowing him to play unconcious, dropping ruthlessly to the floor.

The Solver whispered, ""Hold out your leg, it's best if we get those arrows out of your leg fast...this should ease the pain."" He showed him the taser/brass knuckles.</div>"

Their ""sharpened point"" design meant that, unlike a barbed or even tipped arrow, they didn't penetrate far and could be removed easily. They did however contain a payload of a weak tranquilizer, meant to slow down escaping troublemakers, though it would only make him drowsy and not knock him out outright.

Before the Traveler and Solver could discover any of this, the ""police"" had already converged on them. Aiming their weapons at the two to keep them from trying anything, one of them which was wearing a distinctive white helmet bent down and carefully removed the arrows from the Traveler, taking out what looked like a glue gun and injecting a bio-degradable anti-biotic foam into it, which would gel to stop the bleeding. Protocol may not have mattered for much, but the brutal death of a suspect was not looked upon well by a hyper-urban ""community"" that constantly balanced on the edge of chaos.

Soon after, the two of them were cuffed and marched into the back of a van. As it traveled along the bumpy and debris-covered cement roads towards the nearest freight subway station, they had a moment to actually explain to each other who they were.

""I'm the Solver, I solve stuff."" He said, reaching inside his right coat pocket, feeling his brass knuckles.

""It seems my items weren't confiscated, strange, they should have been after what I pulled."" He said, feeling his left coat pocket where he took out his SDGXL as if were nothing; he quickly removed the game cartridge and SD card if it were to be confiscated then just merely looked at it, as to draw attention to himself.

""Right then!"" He looked up at the officers.

""First off, I'm clearly not from around here, neither is here, second of all, you REALLY need to deploy your soldiers better, you could have lost three men if they decided to 'play' aggressively, and third of all, THIS..."" He held up his SDGXL, ""....is a game console, not a bomb or anything..."" The Solver said. He was playing an extremely risky and brave card, perhaps the ""officers"" respected strength?

The Privateer was never one to sit back and just let the situation happen to her, so she crawled toward the front of the cage and felt at the lock, forming a mental image of it. No dials. No keyhole. What kind of lock was this? How could she possibly break out of a lock that didn't seem to have any method of opening? Up front, a small device hanging on one of the officers' belts read ""ZapLock"" in white letters. This lock used laser technology, not unknown in Timeline 1, but relatively rare. Too bad the Privateer didn't know that, but on the other hand, it was a good thing their design standards weren't all that high.

The Privateer reached into her pocket, feeling around for the fine, flat-headed screwdriver she kept in it. She managed to keep a lot of things in that pocket, considering that despite her profile picture, it was roughly the size of a purse. Steadily, she ran her fingernail along the groove separating the halves of its plastic shell. When she found a weak spot, she jammed the tip of the screwdriver into it and began prying. But one of the officers looked back through the grating between the cab and the box, and she was forced to stop so as not to tip him off. Still, she knew the weakness of the lock now. Under that plastic would be metal, and then she could pick it apart and make her escape. Soon.</div>"

The Gadgeteer sighed in his mind, the other prisoners said some pretty nasty things to him but he pretended to be knocked out so they would just stop and ignore him.

According to the HUD, he was at 15% of the charge required for a timeskip. Still a long while yet, and his arms and legs were beginning to hurt.

He heard a door open to the warehouse, and some shouting from an angry individual. ""What the hell is it doing there?! Get it into the medical ward! We need to find out what that... <span class=""bb-i"">thing</span>... is capable of!

The Gadgeteer gulped and started struggling as the crane headed to try and pick up the cage. Suddenly the electromagnet deactivated, and his limbs were left free. Turning to the lock, he realized he had a big problem... A gatling isn't accurate enough to shoot a lock off.

The crane picked up the crate and began carrying it towards a tunnel. He would need precise timing for this... As it passed over a stack of empty cages, he fired the gatling upwards, tearing the crane arm to shreds. Halting in its tracks, it began flying apart under the sustained fire and finally gave way, causing the cage to plummet 2 stories. Upon landing, the force blew the cage door wide-open, enabling the Gadgeteer to escape.

An alarm was pulled, and the doors to the building began to lock down. The Gadgeteer made a mad dash for the nearest one, and did a slide through it just before it closed. On the other side, he found himself on a train platform where several small rail cars were unloading fresh prisoners...

The officer began speaking in a strange language with a few borrowed words from English, with plenty of French, German, Russian, Spanish and even a couple Native American words in the mix. Though they didn't know it, it had a distinct accent from the street slang the muggers spoke when attacking the Gadgeteer.

While they couldn't make heads or tails of what the full sentence was, they did catch the words ""cage rules"". They might notice that seemingly there was no way for a human being to access the cage, only a door on the side which seemed to have been freshly built, an object resembling a certain plumbing fixture bolted to the bottom of the cage, and a couple of hookups on the walls as well as one leading from the ""object"". It was as if the setup was designed so they would never have to be let out...

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/mistereightysix"">@MisterEightySix</a>

The electric ""police van"" arrived at a garage door with an emblem on it. The door opened, and the van traveled down a spiraling tunnel until it reached a small platform. The van's roof opened up, and a crane lifted the cage out of the vehicle, placing it on a small self-powered rail car guarded by two more ""police officers"".

A mechanism locked the cage into a slot on the rail car, which prevented the door from opening even if it was unlocked.

It sped along the tracks for a few minutes, but after reaching a certain point an alarm went off and a large metal door closed the route behind them off. Although the Privateer couldn't understand them, one of the guards said something about an attempted escape. It arrived at a platform, but the guards suddenly took out their weapons, which she could now clearly see were a sort of pneumatic arrow launcher. A diminutive figure in some sort of strange armor revved up a pair of gatlings built into his wrists, fired off a few rounds at some security cameras in the station, then shouted something to the guards the Privateer wouldn't understand. ""I don't want to use these, but they aren't exactly planning to have me go to the tribunal or whatever they called it! You can try and let them dissect me, or you can say I overpowered you and let me go!""

The guards looked at each other, pressed a button on the control panel of their vehicle and abandoned the rail car as the two doors blocking the subway tunnels opened again. The Gadgeteer hopped in the driver's seat and pushed the throttle forward as fast as it could go.</div>"

The Privateer seized her opportunity. There wasn't much time. She jammed the screwdriver's tip into the lock and pulled, cracking open the lock, then began picking apart the mechanisms inside. Even without being able to clearly see, she was able to pry a few bits out over the course of a few minutes, and gave a hard kick, only to be blocked by the cage being locked in place. Still, the lock was out, and for the first time since she got here, nobody was watching. As soon as the door was open, she was out of here.

Still, she couldn't help but be curious about this strange boy who was inadvertently helping her to do so. She made a mental note to track him for a while and see what he was planning.</div>"

The Gadgeteer checked his power reserves. The use of the gatling had taken off a full 2% from his capacitor, and even though that was hardly anything compared to the total energy required to timeskip, every bit counted. <span class=""bb-i"">""Darn it...""</span> he thought, slowing the throttle on the rail car.

He turned to the woman in the cage. The Gadgeteer didn't know much about the local customs, but her type of dress seemed different from the norm here, where clothes were loose-fitting and hardly washed. ""Why exactly did they bring you in?"" he asked the Privateer in the local dialect. She didn't seem to respond. ""Do you understand my speech?"" he asked in the street slang that he had also encountered. Once again, no response. ""Do you speak English?"" he asked one last time.</div>"

""You plan on leaving us in here?"" The Solver said, looking at the officers defiantly.

""I don't see what wrong this boy did, if anything, let him go and take me, after all, I did take care of three of your lackeys."" He said, his right hand going into his right coat pocket. He knew he wasn't understood and made hand signals as to try and say to take him instead and not the boy. He pointed at him and showed three fingers before punching those three dingers, as to try and tell him he took out three ""officers.""

The Solver stood up to face the officer, he was always a rebel and thus was currently wolling to take more violent actions, maybe...if he was fast enough he could take all of them on. He stared at the officer defiantly, not wanting to stay in here forever.</div>"

The van jerked forward, its electric power source meant it didn't use a transmission like an internal combustion engine. It sped through the city streets, the strange siren wailing as people rushed out of the way.

As the rail car sped along the tracks, the Gadgeteer noticed a switch in the track suddenly flick to the left into a dark, unlit tunnel. He cranked down the throttle, but was unable to determine where the brakes were. The rail car grinded along the rails and continued into the shadows. The Gadgeteer activated his goggles' night-vision, as the track wound back and forth in the darkness. Eventually it came to a dead end at a wall.

""Uh oh."" he said, frantically searching for the brakes. Fortunately, a mechanical noise was heard, and the wall separated to reveal more tracks leading into the darkness. The rail car slipped between the doors, which quickly closed behind them. They turned in a u-bend of tunnels and at the end of it all a light finally came into view. The rail car's breaks suddenly activated as a light on the control panel shone beside the words ""emergency braking strip detected"".

The rail car finally came to a stop at a terminus where some sort of marketplace had been set up. A somewhat shady looking man was at the platform as if to meet them. He took a device out of his pocket and pointed it at them, and a beam of light swept over the two of them. When it stopped, he spoke into the device. Once he had finished a sentence, the device began speaking in english. ""Welcome, fellow timeskippers! You've been invited to take a gander at the goods of the inter-timeline bazaar!"" the device said in a computerized british voice. It repeated the same general phrases in the Privateer's variation of latin, in an accent most widely used in the area around Timeline 86's Rome.

""Here, let us get you out of that cage first, ma'am!"" the device repeated after the man, as a device descended from the ceiling, lifted the cage and placed it down on the platform. The cage, however, had been locked with a more secure method than was used for the usual prisoners. ""Oh. I apologize. We didn't realize they had developed that technology yet..."" the device said, and the man pointed it at the lock. It clicked open, and the Privateer was quick to kick the cage open.

""Obviously you're wondering why we've brought you here. Well aside from it being good for business to save potential customers from certain death, we can't exactly have the locals knowing that there are timeskippers among them! Although judging by your situation, you must be new to this particular timeline! You may call me the Merchant, and as an incentive to use our services in this or any other timeline in the future, have these free Psychic Wallets!"" the Merchant's device said. He tossed the Privateer and Gadgeteer each a small, unassuming fake-leather wallet. ""Just put materials with high content of silicon, carbon, gold and/or silver into the main pocket, and the wallet will convert the materials into PsyCoins which can be used to purchase items from timeline locals in your travels! It uses all other elements found in the materials as nuclear fuel to create the PsyCoins, so it's very eco-friendly! And don't worry, the wallets will not degrade anything with high volumes of electricity including bioelectricity, so your fingers are safe from being taken off!""

The Merchant then extended his arm as if to say ""behold!"" and spoke into the device again. ""But don't think this little taste is all we have! Go! Sample some of our fine wares! Then when you have some Aether with which to purchase our exclusive products, come to any inter-timeline bazaar throughout the multiverse and shop to your heart's content... or wallet's bottom. Oh, I almost forgot to mention! Aether can be stored in the Psychic Wallet as well, but you'll have to figure out for yourself how to get ahold of it. It also doubles as ""universal identification"" in case anyone starts asking too many questions. Just flash it like so!"" The Merchant pulled out his own Psychic Wallet and opened it up. Inside was a blank piece of paper behind a clear plastic sleeve, but the longer the Gadgeteer and Privateer stared at it, the more it looked like some sort of ID card was inside the sleeve instead.

""And without further ado, I will leave you to your own devices!"" the device translated for the Merchant one last time, turning away to return to his large shop which dominated the center of the strange marketplace.

The Gadgeteer turned to the Privateer and spoke in her language. ""So... Latin, eh?""</div>"

The Privateer stared at the blank paper in her new Psychic Wallet, trying to see if she could make out any sort of real picture or writing in it. It was one thing to go to new universes, but quite another for something like this to be happening to her.

""<span class=""bb-i"">Ita vero</span>,"" she said to the Gadgeteer.

""English. Despite what the British Empire thought of themselves, it's not that common. A lot of timelines diverge before it goes into widespread use, its linguistic ancestry barely resembles the form used in most worlds and so ""Anglish"" often takes its place, and there was a tipping point in which the descendants of the Germanic tribes wage war on the world. In the timelines where they win, German is more widely used than English, usually under penalty of death."" he explained to the Privateer. ""Thing is, I don't even come from a variation of the British empire. That tipping point I mentioned? In my home timeline the two sides of that war wiped each other out after the war dragged on for decades longer than usual among the multiverse.""

He sat down in the driver's seat of the rail car. ""I come from a continent on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean from Europe. The British Empire colonized that continent and then lost control over it. We were calling it Canada when I left there, and in most timelines it's a nation known for being a peacekeeper."" The Gadgeteer then looked downward sadly. ""In my timeline it's known for being the ""leader of the free world"", which basically translates to attacking weaker nations for their resources at the behest of industrial interests, unfortunately. I should know, since I was mistakenly given this over-powered armor by the king of all industry moguls, who thought I was his dying son. The bastard wanted to make his heir superhuman, at the expense of everyone else. Instead he did so to the son of one of his employees, me, so when I was woken from a 10 year technology-assisted dream I'd been in since infancy I made sure he'd never again walk on the backs of others.""

The Gadgeteer sat up and looked at the inter-timeline bazaar. ""Sorry, I don't usually have people to talk to. So do you want to take a look at this place or do you have places to be?""</div>"

The Traveler watched as The Solver bravely volunteered himself to their captors. ""Hey, they were originally after me. You wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for me. So don't get yourself into more trouble on my account. Besides, I promise you that I can get out of here in 24 hours... or probably less, actually,"" he told The Solver. <span class=""bb-i"">Now, let's see if I have anything useful,</span> he thought. The Traveler quickly began searching his pockets for anything useful that could get them out. After finding nothing interesting, he unslung his backpack and began scrounging through the disorganized contents. Finally, he found something interesting. He pulled out a device that resembled a laser pointer and presented it to The Solver.

""So, I say we've got two options. Ride through this and see if we can get some answers on what's going on around here OR try to escape using this. I know it looks like a laser pointer, but it works basically like a blow torch so it should be able to cut through this cage.

""Let's wait it out, at least for a bit. If things get bad, use that and I'll cover you."" The Solver said, revealing his brass knuckles/taser once more. 

He sat back down on the floor, near the bars of the cage as his eyes were upon the driver and the guards. If he really wanted to, he could have paralyzed everyone in here, but it was best as to try and get information. An idea sprouted into his head, he looked back over to the Traveler before hatching his plan.

""I have an idea...from in here, I can knock out all the guards after you get us out. Then we can force the driver to take us to our destination, I should have no trouble if he decides to struggle, ESPECIALLY in close quarters."" He said once more.

Sliding the brass knuckles/taser onto his right hand, he kept it readied, hiding his right hand inside his coat, as to prevent being spotted by the guards.</div>"

The van rolled down the pipe, picking up speed as it descended into the darkness. Finally, and seemingly illogically or ominously, a light could be seen ahead.

The van plopped out of the pipe and into the inter-timeline bazaar, landing nose-first which knocked out the driver. The unbalanced vehicle then rocked onto its back and was stuck upside down with the Traveler and Solver inside.</div>"

The Solver was awake, he rubbed his heas as he was amazingly untouched. Seeing as the driver was knocked out, and they were upside down, he lookee over at the Traveler.

""Now would be a good to explore, eh?"" He said to the Traveler following him out the van. He tucked the brass knuckles back inside his coat pocket. He checked to make sure his handheld console was okay, which it was, otherwise he wasn't going to be very happy. 

He explored his surroundings looking around the bazaar in curiosity, where he looked at the shops in curiosity, before spotting the Gadgeteer and the Privateer, he did not walk forward, nor greet them, but kept his vigilant state on, ready for a battle whenever needed.</div>"

Before the Privateer had a chance to answer the Gadgeteer, she fell over backward as the ground rattled from the van's dramatic entrance. Soon afterward, the Solver and the Traveler had exited the van. Now they were all in one place, and it was a strange place indeed. But again, the Privateer's mind was not on logical things. She ignored the Solver's battle stance, making her way to the cabin of the van. With some difficulty, she hauled the unconscious driver out of the van and, in a fashion that would come to be the usual in the others' eyes, she looted everything she could off of him.

She'd always wanted a utility belt.

On the belt was a pneumatic arrow launcher, similar in size and shape to a handgun. It was still nearly fully loaded. There was also a pair of handcuffs. Odd how these guys never seemed to use those. Lastly, a truncheon. Self-explanatory. She was about to go root through the van, when a voice said from behind her, ""Uh, what are you doing?""

(So, who said it? You decide!)</div>"

The Traveler asked The Privateer in English. He had forgotten that The Solver was the only one he had met so far that spoke the same language as him. ""I know that guy was trying to throw the two of us in prison just a few minutes ago, but I don't think we should just take his stuff and leave him. Especially if we don't know the extent of his injuries.""

When no one immediately reacted to his suggestion, The Traveler approached the unconscious driver and took a knee next to him. He then leaned over and tried to feel for the man's heartbeat, and as soon he found it, he tried to closely listen for the man's breathing. ""Well he's alive at least, but uh... I don't know how to check if he's got a concussion. Any of you guys know?"" he asked the three.</div>"

The Gadgeteer approached in a hurry when he heard the word concussion. ""Okay, someone carry this guy to that rail cart over there. You want to know if he's got a concussion?"" he said, pinching the guard's arm. ""He's unconscious. Definitely a concussion. He's gonna need medical help.""

""I believe I can take care of that!"" the Merchant said, arriving at the scene. He clapped his hands and two large brass automatons lifted the guard into a stretcher. They placed him in the back of the rail cart and put it in full reverse, disappearing into the dark tunnels. ""They'll drop him off somewhere he can be quickly found by his co-workers. Now then, I believe I missed you two!"" the Merchant said, turning to the Traveler and Solver. After going through the same sales pitch as he did with the Privateer and Gadgeteer, the Merchant tossed a Psychic Wallet each to the Solver and Traveler, invited them to look around, and swiftly returned to his store.

""So I guess you two are timeskippers too?"" the Gadgeteer said to the Traveller and Solver.</div>"

The Solver caught the Psychic Wallet in his hands and opened it, looking inside it to find the Psychic Paper and the pockets as to store PsyCoins. He closed the wallet and placed it in his pocket before looking over at the Gadgeteer.

""Timeskippers Bazaar, eh? Nice to meet you, I'm the Solver."" The Solver said, slipping his brass knuckles back inside his coat pocket before taking his SDGXL from his other pocket and holding it in his hand. He slipped the Data Card back in and turned it on, before checking the time, he nodded before turning off the system and slipping it back in his pocket.

""Right then. It's afternoon and we have a few hours, no?

""I'm the Gadgeteer."" he responded. ""She hasn't gotten the chance to say her name..."" the Gadgeteer motioned towards the Privateer ""...but she comes from a timeline without the English language, so I guess I'll have to translate for her? Also I think they were after you for the same reason they were after us. They want to know how we got here, and they're willing to take extreme measures to do so. There's security cameras everywhere in this timeline.""

He watched as the Solver put the Data Card into the device. ""Wait, you've been to that timeline?"" the Gadgeteer asked, taking out the GamePlayer X+. ""I got this from a timeline where the DualGear exists!

The Privateer produced a device like a small telescope out of her pocket. She too had noticed the seeming absence of security cameras. Placing it next to her eye, she rotated the end pointing away from her to focus it, then started looking around. Nothing. Whoever the Merchant was, he'd certainly covered his bases.

A thought came back into her head. The <span class=""bb-i"">Messor</span> was still out there on the streets somewhere! She tapped the Gadgeteer on the shoulder to get his attention.

""We can't stay. We need to find my chronosphere before those men dismantle it.""</div>"

""Wait, so you use a vehicle?"" the Gadgeteer asked her in Latin. ""Where did you leave it?"" He turned to the Traveller and Solver. ""You two do know that once one timeskipper leaves a timeline, the timeline locks onto heir destination and forced anyone who leaves after them to arrive at the same timeline for about one month afterwards, right?"" he explained in English. ""So for better or worse we're stuck with each other.

The Solver raised an eyebrow at the Gadgeteer when he said he gave John Hails the Augmented Reality goggles.

""Ah, thus the two companies eventually worked together to create Virtual Reality, a step up from what you gave them. Now it makes sense as to why Father and Mr. Hails managed to work together to create it, everyone else thought it would be a long while until we would see VR. If it wasn't for Father's ingenuity and your Timeskipping, we wouldn't be where we are today."" He said before shrugging and answering his second statement.

""Well then, it seems we have to work together...I'm willing to do so. Not sure about you, though."" He looked over at the Traveller before looking back down at at his coat pocket, taking out a small cartridge, probably for the SDGXL as he twirled it around, looking at it. On the label of the cartridge you could faintly see a a white clothed assassin with daggers in his hand.</div>"

""T-timeskipper? W-what's that?"" he lied, a lie that could be seen through by a toddler. The three other timeskippers continued talking, not even trying to hide their true nature from each other. This was a bit surprising for The Traveler, not only because they were so open with each other but because he had never met another timeskipper before, let alone four, if you count the The Merchant. Not wanting to miss the chance to be with people that he could actually relate to, he said, ""Truth be told, I don't know how I've made it this. I'm sure if I were to leave you guys it wouldn't be too long before I find a dagger in my back or a laser beam to the face. So yeah, I'm with you guys.

The Gadgeteer put away the GamePlayer X+ as he scanned the area for cameras using his goggles. Somehow the Merchant had managed to construct this place without attracting the attention of the locals, and even managed to ensure no cameras were in place here.

""These constructs are so dense that they're obscuring the signal. I need something to boost it.""

The Solver raised an eyebrow as the Traveler attempted to lie to him, looking at him with a 'seriously?' expression before walking off after the Privateer, deciding to accompany her, he assumed the others would do the same. He was a bit awestruck as began to walk after her, his eyes trailing off to examine the bazaar as best as possible, taking in all the details down to the very last pebble on the ground. His left hand was in his coat pocket, tucking the SDGXL in his hand whence his right hand went to the collar of his shirt, grabbing the glasses which were hung on his shirt before slipping them on, as to do his best as to stay incognito. 

The Solver began to look for any sort of supplies he could use as to make PsyCoins for his recently acquired Psychic Wallet.

""Silicon..carbon...and gold or silver...."" he said, looking around the area as to see what he could take as to convert the materials into PsyCoins. Of course, he didn't plan on STEALING anything, he was mostly looking for something on the ground, or something that didn't belong to anyone.</div>"

HOWEVER, I should warn you it's not that simple. While most of the sci-fi is techno-babble and magic exists, the setting attempts to make realistic use of the ""quantum multiverse"" (read: every time something, <span class=""bb-i"">anything</span>, happens it causes the timeline to split into versions of itself where all possible outcomes have occured) and the <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect"">butterfly effect</a> will be extremely powerful.

How powerful? After their divergence point, timelines have nothing in common with history as we know it. If the divergence is early enough it's like visiting an alien planet, complete with languages you don't understand and technologies never invented in our timeline. Or even a world where life itself evolved differently and the continents have a different layout.

Aside from timelines constantly branching out on their own, the so-called Timeskippers (anyone who jumps ""sideways"" into another timestream) are a unique case. By leaving their home universe, they have removed themselves from that timeline, and unless they have that timeline ""bookmarked"" somehow they can never get back to it. The other effect is that they cause a ""singular divergence"" because their arrival in a timeline creates an entirely new timeline just for the fact that they popped into existence out of nowhere.

It should be noted that when a character leaves a timeline, they cause the timeline to be ""locked"" to their destination for about one month, allowing the characters to travel more-or-less in a group.

The plot will be timeline-oriented, with each timeline having a severe problem which our characters will try their best to fix out of the good of their hearts, or for other reasons. I'm also in the process of thinking up a long term story arc which will keep things interesting longer.

Anyway, this RP will require 2-3 paragraphs per post. No double-posting. Please place applications under the ""Character"" tab, and make sure to read the tips on making a good character!

---

<span class=""bb-b"">How do we always end up in different spots on Earth?</span>
The gravitational field of a planet affects timeskipping by ""anchoring"" it to within that gravitational field, but thanks to the differences in gravity between timelines it introduces a bit of chaos and we could end up anywhere on Earth. Note that due to the moon's effects on the tide, we can't end up on a part of the Earth's surface which is covered by large amounts of water or ice, including Antarctica. In addition, the gravitational field in the targeted timeline cannot deviate too far from the current one, so any version of Earth which has gone too far from the space it occupies in a standard timeline, collided with another celestial body, is feeling the effects of a moon that hit a celestial body or been flung away from Earth, or no longer has a sun is impossible to enter.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Money"" System</span>
Instead of money, we have biotech microchips with brainwave transmitters called Psychic Coins (PsyCoins). They work as follows:

1. You ask to purchase an item(s) at a marketplace, stall, grocery store, department store, etc.
2. You give a psychic coin to a merchant, shopowner, etc.
3. The merchant, shopowner, etc. and anyone else around will be ""tricked"" by the PsyCoin into thinking you just payed them with an appropriate amount of coins/cash.
4. The PsyCoin will degrade into carbon and silicon within 15 minutes.

To keep PsyCoins from degrading while YOU have them, you also have a Psychic Wallet which links with the Coins to tell them ""don't turn to dust"".

Also, because one PsyCoin is used for EVERY purchase no matter how big or small, you could buy a sports car with one PsyCoin for one purchase, and the next day be forced to use one for a mere few bottles of water because you're dehydrated.

Everyone starts out with no PsyCoins and no Psychic Wallet, but will get one before we leave the first timeline. If you join later on, then you will get the Psychic Wallet before the characters leave the timeline they are currently in. Psychic Wallets can create PsyCoins out of a sufficient amount of gold and silver, either a gold ring or silver ring, a gold or silver coin, or an outdated microchip.

This way, you'll have ""money"" despite the fact that an american dollar from timeline X which diverged from timeline 1 in the 1970s would not be legal tender in timeline Y which diverged in the 1940s, and most certainly would not be legal tender in timeline Z which diverged 10,000 years ago and thus North America is ruled by 4 or 5 nations mostly inhabited by Native American descendants which use lead coins and leather strips with branded emblems as currency.

There is a secret organization that has had timeskip capablities for a while, and has been setting up ""intertimeline black markets"" whose customers will all be timeskippers. Expect to meet some weird faces if you come across one of these marketplaces, a few of which may be openly hostile to you. They use a ""premium currency"" called Aether which can only be gained from certain rare sources (no spoilers!), and sell equipment for ""TARDIS-like"" timeskip devices as well as many other interesting things.

<span class=""bb-b"">Battle System</span>
The Emote battle system goes as followed: Each RP-er will take turns (posts) to attack each other, the defender picks if the hit hits or not, he can parry, counter-attack, dodge, etc. The attacker however can find out twists and turns to use Logic against the opponent, making it undodgable, can't be parried, etc.

To KO someone, you must have 10 attack hit sucessfully OR 5 Mortal Wounds (Neck/Head &amp; Heart and attacks that go through the body completely.)

-Breaking a limb will result in a NORMAL attack but incapacitate/disable that limb. Armor and cyborg limbs are MUCH harder to break. Magic may be capable of healing limbs in a single turn at the cost of attacking.

-If poison enters the body, expect extended incapacitation or an auto KO, unless you can get around it!

-Also, a major thing about the emote system! It also uses the honor system! Please try not to dodge EVERYTHING. (Let at least 1-3 attacks hit on purpose, etc)</div>"

I am starting the RP, however this is not a cut-off date to making an application! This RP is designed to allow you to make a character sheet with no prior knowledge of any previous events (though you have to understand the concept of the setting) and join in once your app is approved! <span class=""bb-i"">There is only one catch:</span> Anyone who joins, leaves or returns has to explain in-universe how their character got there and then proceed from there (or in the case of leaving, how they get separated from the group or died). If you cannot do so for any reason, PM me to tell me whether your absence will be temporary or permanent and I will do it for you.

Thank you for understanding, I hope this unique approach will be much more appealing to everyone.

The plot will be timeline-oriented, with each timeline having a severe problem which our characters will try their best to fix out of the good of their hearts, or for other reasons. I'm also in the process of thinking up a long term story arc which will keep things interesting longer.

That said, I can't just go off and start it; I promised a vote on each universe we go to. (Yes this means that if your character leaves ahead of everyone else you will not be able to RP until after the others catch up!)

So without furthur ado:

<span class=""bb-b"">Timeskippers Vote #1</span>

The options for our first point of arrival are...


<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Option #1</span></span>
Timeline 3
<span class=""bb-i"">Global Kowloon</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">(3 votes)</span>
Nobody actually knows the divergence point of Timeline 3. All records have been somehow lost. All that is known is that this YACHT (Yet Another Cyberpunk Hell Timeline) is home to a global society that seems to be falling apart at the seams thanks to a lack of architectural standards.

The average megacity of Timeline 3 is like an urban maze, similar to the former <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kowloon_Walled_City"">Kowloon Walled City</a> of Timeline 1, and also like Kowloon the crime inherent in these labyrinthine alleys makes the very idea of entering this Timeline a scary thought.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Option #2</span></span>
Timeline 2582
<span class=""bb-i"">Forever Train</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">(0 votes)</span>
The automobile is not a certainty across the multiverse. In this world, Pennsylvania Railroad and B&amp;O Railroad got wind of the Great American streetcar scandal in the 1930s from a whistleblower who was ignored by the government and the press. Realizing if it were to succeed the days of the railroad would be numbered, they sabotaged the conspiracy.

As a result, mass transit flourished in North America and cars fell out of use worldwide. Though air travel displaced the railroads in the 20th century, there is no US Interstate Highway system.

2014 is the 50th Anniversary of the Los Angeles Monorail system and the opening of its station on the Global Maglev Network. Reportedly a terrorist group (actually acting on behalf of Big Air) is out to destroy the station however, but the authorities assure the public they have it under control. What could possibly go wrong?

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Option #3</span></span>
Timeline 6735
<span class=""bb-i"">Magic vs. Technology</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">(0 votes)</span>
What if Magic was real? Before this timeline diverged from 5190, the Huns managed to annihilate the Roman Empire plus all the Roman-conquered peoples. Shortly afterwards the Huns underwent a civil war that destroyed them. Europe was left uninhabited for centuries, and China is unable to find suitable markets for silk and opium which forces them to do business with the middle east, which redirects the silk road to Egypt and eventually the rest of Africa.

However, a secret civilization grew from the 9th century onward through the magical understanding of the aboriginees of what we know of as Australia. From that point on, this timeline splintered off from Timeline 5190, and in the 16th century the powerful magics of the ""Jadu Bhumi"" as the Indian Navy dubbed them and their continent became known to Afro-Eurasia.

After the Chinese and Indians get a hold of the magic by exchanging technological secrets for them, they formed the ""Asian Federation"". The Arabs joined shortly afterwards and the new force conquered Egypt.

Meanwhile, the ""Jadu Bhumi"" sent colonial forces in newly-developed magitech ships to the east, discovering the Aztecs. The three groups race to conquer as much of the globe as they can. By 2014 there are three separate communication networks proprietary to the three mega-nations, one of them entirely magic-based. Then someone discovers nuclear fission while experimenting with plastic explosives and uranium...</div>"

19726,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-02-28 18:44:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As the team arrived back at the base Supergirl immediately stormed off. ""Anyone who talks to me. Dies."" She said angrily, obviously not meaning it literally. She was upset. It showed not only in her attitude, but on her face and she wasn't going to calm down anytime soon. 

""Well maybe if you had just followed Robin's plan things might have gone a lot easier."" Kid Flash spoke as he followed behind her. 

""Well maybe if the orders weren't so dumb!""

""They weren't dumb! You just couldn't wait a freakin second. And we needed you to hold the building up!""

""Why couldn't Jason do it?!"" 

""He was keeping the submarine from leaving!""

Nathaniel and Rachel were going back and forth and it seemed like they wouldn't be stopping anytime soon. 

Jason sighed, while shaking his head. This was becoming very annoying, very fast. Every time something went wrong on a mission somebody would argue. This time it was Kid Flash and Supergirl. He remembered arguing with Robin once. Sometimes it would be Nate and Quinn who didn't even go on missions. He wouldn't be surprised if Ellie was still upset too, or getting more annoyed. Still, he was staying out of this one. He'd handled his part. But things seemed to go up and down often. Virgil hadn't joined them on the last few missions, which was understandable. he had his own things to handle. Though he likely wouldn't get involved in this argument, but rather choose to talk to Quinn, give her a mission report, and handle the technical stuff. Mostly to give Robin a break since she handled that stuff during the mission. He was responsible like that. 

Nathaniel finally threw his hands up. ""Oh whatever. Me and Robin could have handled that by ourselves any day."" He lied mostly because of his annoyance. He wasn't very happy. He couldn't believe this. Why did they even need to be on a team? Three months of up and down activity. Three months. Sure the missions were mostly all complete, but things always went south in some way or another. How could the league just expect them to work together like this? They were all so used to going solo or little team ups. Simply grouping up and working together like this was impossible! They all had their own ways. Sure he could listen to Robin forever and be fine, but Supergirl had a habit of going off tangent if she didn't like something. Superboy didn't usually cause waves, but if he felt strongly about it, he would let it be known. JR was more or less fine, but even then, he wasn't always around as Shock. ""Please tell me I'm not the only who thought that mission kind of went down the toilet cause of Supergirl.""

""How about my fist tell your face to shut the fuck up?!"" That was childish she knew, but Rachel couldn't help it. ""Just run back to your little girlfriend and do whatever you two do. And where is Kat?"" She stomped in a huff a small crater forming under her feet. That could have been worse to be honest. So she at least wasn't as angry as she claimed. She likely knew she messed up.  

""Woah... She is not my girlfriend."" Things were going the usual route. Calming down a bit. But still... Tensions were high.</div>"
19727,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-02-28 19:10:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Robin was getting tired of this, that much she was aware of. The league didn't fight like this. When her father was younger and they had their own team, they argued, but she knew it was nowhere as excessive. A lot of the time, she'd wondered why the hell her father thought it was a good idea to form this team, anyway. Why he'd put her in charge, when he knew she wasn't good at working with others. A duo? That she could do. That she could do perfectly. When it was just her and one other person, and they had a set plan, things worked perfectly. But with a whole team, she could not control them.

 Rachel was especially unstable, in Ellie's opinion. She would act on impulse, rather than thinking things through. From personal experience, that seemed to be a defining trait in Kryptonians, much to her (and her father's) annoyance. She hadn't yet asked her father or Bruce for help, she refused to. She swore she could handle this, but the more time went on, the clearer it got that she maybe wasn't suited to leading... especially if the ones she was supposed to lead wouldn't listen to her. She wasn't sure how much more she could take of them fighting all the time. 

Jason and Matt seemed to be staying out of it. Matt always stayed out of it, he co-operated with the plans and just wasn't the type to fight. Did she ever mention she liked him the best? Besides Nathan, whom she had history with prior to this stupid team forming in the first place.

""Will you two shut up?"" She snapped, moving between Jason and Matt to get more towards the other two. ""The missions over and it's time to drop it. No matter what anyone did, it's not important now... The mission was a success, and it's over with. End of story."" Robin sighed, following after Nathan, ""Nate isn't my boyfriend.""

Kat peeked out of the TV room after hearing her name, ears forward and alert. She looked to Rachel, peeking out a little more. <span class=""bb-i"">I take it the mission didn't go so well.</span></div>"

""Suuuuuurrreee."" Rachel said in a sarcastic tone as Nathan and Ellie walked away. She huffed and then heard Kat. She sighed walking over to the large beast of a pet and knelt down throwing her arms around the feline. ""Oh Kat. You are so far just about the greatest thing to come out of this."" She cooed hugging her pet and gently stroking and scratching her fur. 

--------------------------

""Hey Matt. Wanna help me give the mission report to Quinn?"" Jason asked calmly now that everything was more or less done. Supergirl had Kat to calm her down and nathan would do whatever it was he didn. ""I'll get you some food afterwards."" He added calmly. Ass he thought, Matt was the easiest to hang out with after a mission. 

--------------------------

Nathan was heading for the the kitchen. Yes the kitchen. After a mission he was usually hungry and after an argument well he liked to relax. ""Jesus Christ this team thing was a terrible idea."" He probably would have noticed Ellie following after him if he was paying attention, but he wasn't really. So he got to the kitchen and began to make some food. Sandwiches galore. ""And nobody can back out because League and idiots..."" He thought nobody was around to hear. He was wrong. Although it was obvious he wouldn't mean his best friend.</div>"

He is obnoxious.</span> But she supposed he could be worse. At least he didn't try to preform experiments on her. <span class=""bb-i"">I'm glad my presence pleases you.</span> Kat purred once more, sitting down.

----------------

M'att sighed softly once everyone had separated and the fighting ceased, looking up to Jason. Quinn somewhat intimidated him, but then again most people did. He nodded to Jason, running a hand through his blonde hair. ""Sure, Jason. At least the mission went okay..."" He realized he had been floating and got to his feet, starting towards the room where Quinn usually was - the training room - lazing about, watching something on one of the computers, and eating. ""We do not have to get food if you do not want to purchase it, we could always find some here...""

----------------

Robin seemed amused that he couldn't tell she was present. It was often hard for others to notice a Bat was near, and Robin was especially quiet. While he spoke, she crossed her arms and trailed after him, a smirk on her face. ""Agreed,"" She'd said after he seemed finished, ""but I can't question my father's decision now. I suppose we'll just have to get used to them."" She walked into the kitchen past him and climbed onto one of the counters so she could get into the higher cabinets, where they kept the snack foods. She pulled out a bag of chips and then sat down. ""It would be a lot easier if it were just you and me.""</div>"
19730,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-02-28 22:10:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""It's just the whole team thing."" Rachel sighed as she released Kat. ""Come on. Let's go to the living room and watch a movie or something."" She smiled as she walked away heading towards where the couch was. ""We can talk more about it once I've relaxed a little bit."" She added with a smile already much calmer than before. 

-------------------

Jason shrugged and shook his head slightly. ""Don't worry about it. Besides, Nathan probably went straight for the kitchen. I don't mind buying you something to eat."" He said with a small smile before they reached the training room. ""Yo Quinn. Mission report time."" He called out to her calmly. She must have been expecting it or something right. After all, Virgil wasn't on this mission. Someone had to do it. And he figured Ellie should get to relax too for now. 

-------------------

Nathaniel jumped a bit when he heard Ellie. ""Son of a..."" He shook off the momentary fear and turned to look at her. ""Yeah yeah I know. Questioning the big bad bat is a definite no no."" He said calmly as he stood back a bit from the counter, enjoying the view for a moment before she turned and sat down. Of course, he immediately looked away. By the time her eyes were on him he was eating a sandwich. One of the 5 or so he'd made. ""I know it would be. This is so annoying."" He stopped for a second to slide the mask down off his face. ""Want a bite?"" He asked as he stepped a bit closer to her while she sat on the counter.</div>"

She kept her head low as she walked. She was just occupying this room, curled up in her usual spot on the floor. Per the usual, she returned to said spot and plopped down, laying her head on the arm of the couch. 

------

Matt rolled his eyes at the mention of Nate and the kitchen. He liked the speedster, but he had a tendency to eat them out of house and home. Quinn had to make grocery trips what seemed like twice a week, she was the one responsible for restocking all their stuff, but Bats gave her the funds. When they entered the training room, there she was in a chair, tossing popcorn into her mouth and watching some viral video on one of the holographic computers. She looked up when they entered, standing up and setting the bowl in her chair. She stretched her arms.
""Hey,"" She swiped the screen away and then pulled up another, which she would use to log their mission report. ""How did it go? Bad, I'm assuming. I could hear you fighting from here."" 
""It was a success, but Supergirl didn't stick to the plan..."" Ash had decided to just go his separate way home after they'd gotten back towards the HQ, he had something he had to do... But he said he'd return later.

------

Robin laughed when he seemed surprised, and kicked her feet while she sat on the counter. ""I can question him, it's just not always wise."" She had a tendency to rebel, but she usually ended up getting in trouble. She began to eat out of the chip bag, removing her own mask. If anyone came in the room, she'd just close her eyes, but she wasn't that worried about them finding out her identity - her father, however, was more firm about it when he was around. ""Nah, I can just eat one of your other ones if I get hungry."" Eli grinned, setting her mask to the side. ""We have to learn to work with them... Our missions are 9/10 times a success, but still... So are the leagues, they're just not fighting all the time. If only they'd listen to me."" She rolled her eyes.</div>"

""What are you doing Kat? Come on. Lay on the couch with me. I can take it."" She laughed a little. ""Let's get comfortable."" She smiled petting her feline companion. 

----------------------

""Yeah what Matt said. Still, even with all the trouble we got everything done. Bad guys are going to jail, That drug they were messing with is being put away in a safe location. Etc etc."" With the basics out of the way Jason proceeded to give a full rundown of what happened. It was helpful with Matt since he could talk about the things Jason wasn't there for or couldn't see. Once they were done he smiled. ""That's everything. So if you don't mind we're gonna go get some food. You want anything?"" He asked before letting her know where Nathan and Robin likely were and where Rachel was likely to be as well in case she decided to yell at them or anything.

----------------------

""If I don't eat 'em all myself."" Nathaniel teased her as he move on to his second sandwich. ""Although I think the biggest problem is we're all so used to working by ourselves. At most, in a pair. And we're all pretty stubborn."" He added with a small sigh. ""By the way. You sure you should have your mask off?"" He added with a calm somewhat uncaring tone. It didn't matter if the others knew who she was. He already did after all.</div>"

But Rachel would probably fight the cause if anyone said something.

""Well, at least you got the job done. Batman should be satisfied."" Quinn said as she began typing, logging the information they were telling her. After she finished, she sent it off and turned back to her younger companions. ""Food? Nah, I've got plenty here. Unless my idiot cousin makes me have to take another trip to the store..."" She mumbled to herself, rolling her eyes. She grabbed the popcorn bowl again and started eating. ""Have a nice time.""
Matt grinned, waving his hand to the archer. ""Thank-you! Come on, lets go~"" He looked to Jason and began to float again, heading for the door. ""Where should we go?"" As he spoke, his costume changed to more casual clothes. 

------

""Well, they're not that good anyway,"" Robin teased, ""I make them better."" When he mentioned everyone being stubborn, she groaned. ""Tell me about it. I don't know how to work with them. Maybe we should just divide into groups of two for missions..."" That didn't sound like a terrible idea, but... ""My mask? My dad's not here to say anything about it, why should I care? Besides, even if they're all pretty useless at listening, I don't think any of them would blab my secret identity. It's not like they know my name."" She shrugged, ""I mean, you do and you haven't said a word to anybody.""</div>"

""Who cares? I'm okay with it. And I'm comfortable with you here."" She said as she used her hand to take the remote control for the tv and started flipping through the channels. ""By the way, what'd you do today? Must be boring sometimes."" She said as she glanced over the couch. Sure she didn't care if Kat wasn't allowed on here, but if she could avoid another argument that'd be great. 

---------------------------

""Alright. See ya then Quinn."" Jason said calmly as he floated off after Matt. However, just before they left the room he glanced back. ""By the way, Nathaniel went to the kitchen again. Bye!"" He spoke quickly and then was off laughing a little. ""First Matt, I'm gonna go change. And then we can get whatever you want. I picked last time."" He said simply still chuckling slightly after breaking the news about the kitchen a bit more directly. 

----------------------------

""Right right."" Nathaniel repeated that a couple of times as Robin spoke, adding in a little chuckle here and there. He was listening, but they'd had this conversation a few times already. He hopped onto the counter beside her, laying his head back on her lap. There was only one sandwich left on the plate on the opposite side of her. ""Geez... These counters are big... This whole place is big..."" He laughed a little since it was pretty much all of her father's doing. The father who'd be giving him the glare of death for doing this. Why couldn't anyone realize they were just friends? ""And of course I know your secret identity."" He smirked looking up at her. ""I'm like the coolest dude you know. And you're my best friend.""</div>"
19735,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-01 23:27:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">If Kat could shrug, she would have. Instead, she just relaxed against the girl, softly purring. <span class=""bb-i"">Well, most of the day I laid in here and slept. But for a time, I sat in the training room with Quinn and we watched some sort of feline video together. She then started making cat jokes, so I left.</span> The liger's eyes moved to the television, watching the channels pass by. <span class=""bb-i"">I would prefer getting to come on missions...</span> Robin thought it was better for her to remain home, but Kat was confident she could fight. After all, that was what she was born to be; something to fight with. 

------

Quinn groaned, ""Nathan!"" She yelled, even though he probably couldn't hear her. Man, when he showed his face---he was lucky she couldn't run. 
Matt shrugged. ""I don't have much preference for human food. Perhaps just pizza?"" He suggested with a smile. ""I'll wait here for you to change.""

------

She grabbed the last sandwich, taking a bite of it. ""Mhm, I know. I was there when my dad made some of the blueprints a few years ago. Didn't know what they were for at the time, but..."" Ellie shrugged. When he laid his head on her lap, she didn't seem to care, and adjusted her position so he was more comfortable. She almost smiled at the fact of how annoyed her father would be if he saw them, but she didn't really care. They were friends! It wasn't like they hadn't been since they were kids... ""And I'm the coolest girl you know. And your best friend."" She finished off the rest of the sandwich and leaned back. ""So, I'll need to change eventually.""</div>"
19736,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-02 00:39:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rachel listened calmly nodding along as she scratched behind the feline's ears. ""Eventually, you'll be coming out there with us. Just you wait."" She said cheerfully, with a slight hint of a scheme in mind. But for now that would have to wait. ""But you need to keep exercised and what not. Can't have you getting slow on me."" Rachel teased Kat poking her feline stomach. ""How about a little work out?"" 

--------------------------

Jason nodded after a small laugh at Quinn's reaction. ""Alright one sec."" He went to the changing room, which was typically used by those who didn't live at the base. He grabbed the civvies he'd arrived here with and changed. A red t-shirt with a blue checkered button down over left open, a pair of jeans and a sneaker. ""Alright."" He finally said as he walked out adjusting his collar. ""Pizza sounds pretty good. Let's go."" He said as he floated off once again. They could fly and land somewhere without other people seeing. Plus Matt could practically make them invisible or whatever. 

---------------------------

Nathaniel chuckled slightly at her mention of having to change. ""Awww, but you're so comfortable."" He laughed a bit turning his head towards her stomach and wrapping one of his arms around her waist. ""Just five more minutes. I swear."" He wasn't expecting her to say yes. Mostly he was messing with her. He was relaxed. Much more than just a little while ago. Which meant the team could probably have a talk in a little while. Or all go home or wherever. It was kind of late. About 11:15 pm. At least it wasn't passed midnight... Yet. Batman might order Ellie home than he'd need to go since Quinn got kinda bitchy sometimes, and he and Supergirl still weren't on the best of terms. Bat's was pretty strict with Ellie's curfew and stuff whenever he wasn't the one with her.</div>"
19737,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-08 18:12:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-i"">What kind of workout?</span> The feline asked, lifting her head. She blinked curiously, wondering what the Kryptonian had in mind... She jumped from the couch, turning around to look back at her.

------

Matt was already starting to fly for the door before Jason said anything more. They could always use Zeta tubes to make it faster, but Mat never really liked them... Plus it seemed like Jason had the same idea. ""Pizza it is, then!"" He always liked pizza, or st least since he'd been on earth. 

------

""Fine..."" Ellie started, ""but you know, my dad usually wants me home within an hour and a half of the mission being done."" She smirked, leaning back on her arms. ""And we've been done for about... two hours, with that trip home and all and dropping Speedy off. And Quinn probably just sent in a report... Which means my dad just got the report, and he'll probably be coming in to check on us and bring me home. In fact, I'm surprised he hasn't called me yet to tell me he's waiting out front with the batmobile. Or maybe he's in here already, hiding in the shadows, watching you lie on my lap while I have my mask off."" She knew he wasn't in here, she'd been accustomed to the way that he hid, but Nathan wasn't. It was always funny to see him around her dad. ""But, you know, whatever. I'm comfortable too. I'm sure he'll be fine with me spending the night.""</div>"
19738,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-09 03:49:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Nathaniel quickly shot up. He was in an awkward half sitting, half laying position as he glanced around. Still he made the mistake of turning his head towards Ellie which ended up with him planting his face in her breasts. Of course, he quickly pulled back falling off the counter and onto the floor before quickly hopping to his feet. ""Bats... I swear... That wasn't on purpose."" He said more so nervous than embarrassed. He quite enjoyed that actually. But he wouldn't say that especially if the bat was here.

---------------------------------------

With that Jason and Matt would follow after Matt with no problem. ""I don't really always agree with her, but I do think it's important for us to take a few notes from you and Virgil."" He said making conversation. ""Even I need to learn to listen to Robin more on missions."" He said with a sigh. 

----------------------------------------

Rachel hopped up from the couch and grinned. ""Let's fight a little in the training room. ""I'm the only one you can real let loose against after all."" She grinned. Kat needed exercise and while the others could either avoid or let her tire herself out, Rachel would get a little more physical and let her have some fun with sparring and training. ""So what do ya say?""</div>"
19739,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-27 05:35:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Ellie was too busy laughing to focus on his mess-up, but she probably would have enjoyed both. ""Pff, he's not actually here, idiot."" She pushed herself off the counter afterwards, stepping around him delicately and then twisting around. She began to walk backwards towards the dressing rooms. ""Believe me, I can tell when he's there. He puts off an <span class=""bb-i"">aura</span> of... dad-ness. Anyway,"" she put her mask back on, ""he's actually on a 'secret' mission with the League right now, and won't be back until tomorrow. If they do a good job. If not, maybe day after tomorrow. But thanks for getting off of me."" Her dad would still get a mission report and would likely ask Alfred if she was home yet, as he always did, so she knew she had to be home. If not she'd probably get an unpleasant scolding from either her father's hologram or him in the flesh.<br/><br/>Kat tilted her head to the side. <span class=""bb-i"">I suppose it could be fun, as long as you're sure I will not injure you?</span> The liger had learned that the children of Superman were not easily harmed. Little affected them, and they didn't tire out quickly. Still, she felt a bit uneasy at the possibility of hurting her ""owner"".<br/><br/>Matt looked to Jason as they walked, frowning. ""I don't think we work too well together... all of us. So I just try to listen to Robin in hopes that it will at least get the mission done. I mean, overall, that should be our goal... right? I think everyone should focus less on personal issues with one another and more on what we're doing this for... What's the point of being a team if we can't work together?"" He huffed, crossing his arms. ""I guess maybe it takes time... but it seems like all the other heroes just know how already. Maybe I'm just getting used to earth...""</div>"
19740,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-03-31 13:03:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">""Well fuck... Don't scare me like that!"" Nate's heart had nearly exploded out of his body. If that were really a thing he'd have been screwed. ""But fine... You do that... I'm gonna go change too and maybe head home."" He said with a slight shrug and chuckle. ""But you know I could always run you back."" The speedster added as he walked by her, his upper body now bare, already out of the top half of his suit. <br/><br/>-----------------------------------<br/><br/>Rachel laughed a bit and shook her head. ""I'm positive you won't do any real damage Kat. Just relax. Let loose a little. Against me, you can actually have a little fun."" She said calmly as she pet the large liger. ""Okay?"" <br/><br/>-----------------------------------<br/><br/>Jason was quiet for a moment. Matt was right. ""But... I think it's about more than just setting everything aside to work together."" He said calmly. ""We need to be able to understand each other, not just as team members, but as friends. We need to understand that we all have our own problems and worries and responsibilities."" He sighed. Maybe he was overthinking it. No... That was definitely important. ""I mean look at me. I'm a prince of Atlantis. If something comes up regarding the ocean or the kingdom I'll need to let things be heard."" He stopped again. ""We're not just pieces of a puzzle that can fall into place properly."" He finished for a moment. ""Though you do make things easier for Robin with the way you handle things."" He chuckled a bit. </div>"
19741,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-05-30 20:00:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">""You <span class=""bb-i"">could</span> run me home, potentially,"" she said, taking a moment to look the attractive speedster over. ""but I can't promise Alfred won't tell my dad it was you who brought me home."" Teasing Nathan about her dad was far too easy, it was entertaining how terrified he got most of the time. Some day he'd probably learn she was just talking shit but for now, she could have her fun. The girl wonder unfastened her cape and began to work on pulling off her own top, even while she headed to the rooms they each had for changing. It wasn't like Nathan hadn't seen her before... Once or twice. And she knew her dad wouldn't be around right now. It wasn't like he couldn't get over it even if he was.<br/><br/>--------<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Okay, if you insist.</span> Kat agreed, rubbing her head affectionately against the girl's side. <span class=""bb-i"">I don't see why I can't just go on missions with you sometimes, if only to stay in the bio-ship. It's a bit boring around here.</span> Quinn played with her sometimes, as if she were a cat, but most of the time she was alone and laying in the living room sleeping.<br/><br/>-------<br/><br/>Matt listened patiently, while mentally charting the route for the pizza place. ""I don't think Robin really likes to lead sometimes. Maybe Batman will find us another member that will make everyone work together better? I know Robin tries but... I think she maybe doesn't have enough respect. Like everyone respects Batman and obeys his orders. My mom, your dad, KF's dad. Everyone works together instead of doing what they wanna do because they trust Batman and know that his plans almost always work..."" Matt found himself thinking too much, and decided maybe he should stop. ""I don't know how they're all supposed to trust that her plans work if they don't follow them. But... I guess that's not important, the mission's over. What kind of pizza should we get?""</div>"
19742,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-09-07 05:55:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">""I suppose you're right. But as long as all I did was run you home it wouldn't matter right?"" Nate said chuckling softly as he leaned against the wall. He could never really stop himself from checking his teammate out. Then again why would he want to stop himself? He took one last look before he turn to enter his own room. ""But whatever. Just more time for me to get home and have myself another quick snack before bed anyway."" He said calmly. Of course his was a quick change. It was important for a superhero, and very easy for a speedster. It only took him about a minute. And even then, he might have been able to shave a few seconds off if he really tried. With that he was kind of just waiting for Eli. They could say bye before they each went there separate ways. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>""Well... A lot of these missions aren't really pet friendly. Ya know?"" Rachel spoke with a small laugh. ""Even pets as awesme as you."" She sighed at the thought. ""Besides, you're good and all, but there's a huge chance a big old ferocious kitty cat like yourself would be noticed. Plus you'd be just as bored in the bio ship."" She thought about it for a moment before reaching the training room. ""I'll see what I can do for the next slightly more overt mission though."" <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>""Yeah, but ya gotta think Robin's dad wasn't always the leader. Before him was Aquala... Aquaman."" Jason said calmly as he tried to better articulate his thoughts on Robin's position. ""I mean we've got Virgil. And yeah he'd good leader material when he's around. But he has a life other than being a hero and isn't always with us. You know? Then there's Nate. He could do it if he were able to handle the responsibility. But something tells me that isn't his top priority."" He shook his head and sighed. ""Let's just get the food. Works over for now. No point in really letting it upset us anymore tonight."" He laughed a bit trying to lighten the mood. </div>"
19743,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-09-07 06:11:00,Avenger,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">Eli had adjusted to changing fast, but of course not as quickly as Nate could. The speedsters had a knack for getting things done quickly, even if they were mundane tasks. Eli always thought it might be useful to run fast so you could clean faster or do work faster. Quinn, who had her own speedster at home she had to ""babysit"", always said that it made no difference. She was still lazy. taking her folded up costume, she stuffed it in her backpack as she left the changing room, heading over to Nate. ""...Well, see you, man.""<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Matt nodded in agreement. ""Virgil would make a good leader... unfortunately, I don't know that he will stay with the team much longer..."" He was getting old enough to get a position in the League. Matt had heard from his mother that the League occasionally had missions about which of their proteges were talented and experienced enough to get a space on the team. He had no doubt that Virgil would be a top option. Robin would likely, too. KF was too... himself. Rachel was very unstable, Jason just didn't seem like a first choice... Matt was too inexperienced. Ash was too reckless. And then there was Quinn, who technically was a member... but she usually rejected missions. Instead, she sat here, babysitting them. ""You're right. Let's forget about it for now.""</div>"
19744,Young Justice,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76325-young-justice,['1x1'],2015-09-07 06:23:00,Demon Shinobi,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">""What?"" Nate laughed a little bit. ""A quick 'see ya man' is all your best bud gets?"" He questions poking her side playfully his own book bag secure on his back. ""Come on. You got more in ya than that."" For a moment he was on her left side, then her right, and then her left again. Sometimes doing this was a habit. Helped him better prepare for not being able to when he was around normal people who might put two and two together. Not that he really looked like the hero type with the piercing and the mohawk. Well... People also didn't take him for the intellectual, but he was. When he wanted to be. ""Well whatever. It's better than nothing I guess."" He leaned in and kissed her cheek. ""You going by Zeta tube?"" He asked calmly as he began to walked towards it. He could use it to get to his city and then home from there. Easier than running the whole way. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>With he subject past, Jason began his decent. They were nearing the destination. It's getting kinda late. Let's keep a low profile, head in, eat and head out. Never know what kind of freaks and jerks might come out at night. And we don't want to end up in a situation where we have to defend ourselves. It could turn out bad. For us and others."" He said calmly. It was true. There were so many ways them having to defend themselves could go wrong. It would probably never end in their favor. ""I'm probably just gonna get a slice or two. What about you?"" He then asked as he landed in the alley out of sight. He glanced around while waiting for Matt to make sure nobody else was around. Mostly quiet with a few stragglers here and there. Nobody would really care even if they noticed it seemed. Which was better for them. </div>"

She grinned. Eli had learned that if she just stopped watching him run back and forth, she wouldn't get a headache. Nate certainly took some getting used to, but they had been friends for years before this. The others were still adjusting to the speedster's... hyperactivity. Strangely enough, Quinn liked and tolerated him the least. Eli thought that was pretty funny, all things considered. ""Yeah, I zeta everywhere when you're not basically begging me to let you run me around."" She elbowed him on the arm. ""What about you? Might be quicker than just running the whole way.""<br/><br/>Matt was glad he could blend with humans and look any way he wanted... It helped his case most of the time. But when the others were around, he still needed to keep a low profile for their benefit and for the civilians benefit. ""Yeah, I'm not that hungry. We should be pretty fast, anyway."" He shrugged, landing beside him. There weren't many people... good. Still, he had his clothes change so he could put a hood over himself. ""Well... lets get going then.'</div>"

You know how awesome the running it."" Nate said quickly with small laugh. He smiled and then pat her on the back. ""Anyway. I'll be seein ya Robin."" He paused for a second before getting ready to run off. ""Oh yeah... I forgot. You could always text me."" He chuckled calmly before running off. It was amazing how he could forget the simple things so easily. But then again his mind was always going about 100 miles an hour, if not more. Still, with that, the Speedster was off. <br/><br/><hr class=""bb-hr""/><br/><br/>Jason smiled nodding at Matt's words as he walked into the pizza parlor. ""Let's just order a pie. Whatever we don't eat we can bring back to the base. I'll pick up the bill too so no worries."" He said calmly with a small smile as he went to the counter. ""Any topping?"" He then asked Matt. </div>"

She waved to him as the speedster ran off, going back to what she was doing. After dressing, she went off to the zeta tubes and found her way back home. As usual, her dad wasn't anywhere to be found, so after grabbing a bundle of snacks from the kitchen in one arm along with her laptop and the family cat under the other arm, she made her way up the stairs and to her room. After entering, she promptly locked the door and opened up her laptop, seeing what she could investigate about the enemies they encountered on their mission today.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>He followed behind Jason, nodding when he mentioned the bill. ""Yeah, thanks, I forgot my money, haha."" Earth money, anyways... actually, where did he put it at all? Oops... ""Nah, whatever you want, dude."" Matt said, somewhat zoning out while Jason ordered the pizza. </div>"

Appearance wise Nathan looks like most like his father in terms of facial structure and appearance. However, he has been compared to the late Wally West because of the layout of the freckles on his face and his overall behavior. Aside from that, he sports auburn hair worn in a mohawk fashion with a lightning bolt design on either side of his head, as scene in the picture and yellow, almost golden eyes, giving him a distinct look unlike the other speedsters on the team and the league. Nathaniel stands at about 5’6” weighing approximately 134 lbs. It’s pretty much all muscle, despite his large food intake. He maintains a muscular yet lean physique. As far as his uniform goes, he sports regular goggles usually down to cover his eyes, and a backpack fastened to hold snacks and occasionally other items.</div>

This suit is a bit more armored made to better protect Nathaniel better from damage that may be inflicted to him. Microscopic speakers and and microphones hidden in the earpieces of the mask allow for communication. Also on the earpieces of the mask are switches which can change the settings on the electronic lenses on his suit for various vision modes such as infrared, ultraviolet, etc. He also has compartments for snacks on each gauntlet around the wrist-forearm area.</div></div></div>
Name: Nathaniel Bartholomew Allen
Alias: Kid Flash (KF for short)
Age: 15
Gender: Male

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Abilities/Skills: 
1) Nathaniel is gifted with a photographic memory, meaning he can memorize anything he has ever seen, heard, read. Anything. This comes in handy a lot.
2) While he isn't a genious Nate is highly intelligent noted, by his ability to not only memorize thanks to his memory, but also take in and comprehend high levels of information. He's smart. 
3) He is skilled in gymnastics, parkour and both armed and unarmed combat. He is very far from being an expert, but he is adept. 

Powers: 
""Nate has, by far, the most potential I've ever seen in a speedster."" Were the words spoken by Barry Allen to Bart. It is true. Nathaniel's powers as a speedster far exceed the expectations of the heroes before him. However, he has yet to realize this potential. He can currently only run at supersonic speeds as opposed to much of the light speeds shown by The Flash and can only just barely tap into the speed force. He has a long way to go.

Weaknesses:
1) Nate doesn't understand at the moment, but he is mentally blocking his powers. It is unclear what happened, but something traumatic caused him to block off a fair amount of his speedster powers. While he is as fast as part he cannot utilize many of the techniques and abilities he should as a speedster and even keeps his link with the Speed Force partially severed. 
2) Nate although unable to be hurt by most viruses and what not can still be killed by normal human means.
3) Nate’s metabolism functions several times faster than normal, so he must constantly take in large quantities of food to maintain his energy. Whether or not it tastes good is not a primary concern. For emergency situations in which he must be away from food for more than 24 hours, Jake keeps food in hidden compartment on his gloves.&lt;--- A suggestion from Bart.
4) Nate is claustrophobic to a point where he’ll freak out and do anything he can to get out of wherever he is in. If he can’t he’ll probably just shut down due to the fear.
5) Nate’s temper over his mother and father being insulted or bad mouthed can make him do things that could get him in serious trouble. 
6) His somewhat reckless attitude when it comes to his heroics can get him into some serious trouble.  

Equipment: 
1) New Kid Flash Suit made to Nate's design with a little help from Bart and Rose.
2) Snacks which are kept in the compartments on his gloves
3) Other little things.

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Personality: In a nutshell Nathaniel serves as the relative outgoing joker and girl crazy speedster. He's a lot like his father and the late Wally West in many of those aspects. However, unlike them he can get very serious much quicker than one would expect should the time call for it. This is most likely the influence of his mother. In addition, he has a bit of a short fuse when it comes to people bad mouthing his father or his mother, especially if they try to bring up her troubling past or question them altogether. He has nothing, but admiration for them. He's also very protective of the people he cares about. He’d do near anything for them. Nathaniel is pretty helpful, more so for girls than guys, but still helpful. And above all he could never sit still while someone needed his help. In this aspect of heroics he could end up getting himself into some really bad trouble since he’s one to help and jump into action first and question later. Not always the best. 

History: It was just after the events surrounding the Reach Invasion that Bart Allen met the woman who would later become his wife and the mother of his child. Although at the time he didn’t know it. Especially since she was on the opposite side of the moral spectrum. He was a hero and she was to say the least a mercenary. Her name was Rose Wilson. Bart came face to face with her on multiple occasions. They seemed to have a mutual love/hate relationship. 

By that time it was 2020. This year something happened. Nobody would say Rose pulled a 180, but she did decide to change her ways. She wanted to escape her life and her father. However, she ended up getting stuck in a tough spot. She was in trouble, but like any hero would do Bart saved her and help her get herself together. A year later, March 8, 2021 to be exact, the two had a relationship. They already knew each other quite well due to the meetings and situations they’d been in throughout their respective hero and villain careers. There were people who didn’t like it and many who thought she couldn’t really change, but Bart trusted in her. It paid off because on July 21, 2022 the two married. 

That wasn’t the end of the story though. On May 13, 2023 the next chapter of their lives began. This was the day Rose gave birth to their son Nathaniel Bartholomew Allen. They were fairly young with Bart and Rose each only about 20 or so. And yet, when others looked at them they each seemed to be ready. And in their line of business you couldn’t really afford to wait too long to get the most out of life. So they went into a brief retirement. Raising and teaching their son the basics of normal life. At least until he began to show signs of having powers. His father’s powers to be exact. With that the normal learning became training. He needed to learn control and how to defend himself. And of course, the choice of what he would do with life was completely his. He didn’t make that choice until he was 13. Normal life? Or hero life? Boring, but safe? Fun, but dangerous? Needless to say he chose the latter and become Kid Flash. With that he and his parents became heroes. His parents join the current Justice League and his was a side kick. It wasn’t until about a year and a half later that the team was reinstated and he was made a part of it. Now he’s technically on his own. All of the sidekicks or young heroes are. But they have each other. Right?

Rachel Kent is a young woman with a somewhat muscular, but feminine physique standing at about 5’10”. Because of her Kryptonian physiology she weighs much more than she appears. Her exact weight you will never know, however. When in her civvies she can generally be seen wearing some tank top or or t-shirt or another and ripped jeans. Generally her outfit changes for occasion as one would expect. However, one thing that never changes is a bracelet. However, when Rachel suits up as Supergirl she will remove her bracelet, through on a black tank top sporting a Red ‘S’ shield, Jeans and combat boots. Occasionaly, a black Jacket or Hoodie will be added.</div>
Name: Rachel Kent aka Rac-El (lol get it? Rac-El --- Raquel? No? Sorry &gt;_&gt;)
Alias: Supergirl
Age: 16
Gender: Female

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Abilities/Skills: Rachel doesn’t have many notable skills apart from her excellent cooking. She’s fairly average in school, though this may be due to laziness, and she’s quick on her feet, but otherwise she’s a powerhouse. She does have some fighting skills, but mostly relies on her instinct and power.

Powers: Rachel has inherited all of her father’s powers, however, they are considerably weaker due to her mostly human biology. Still she can take a hit and packs a powerful punch among other things and notably has more power than one might expect.

Weaknesses: Rachel possesses much of the same weaknesses as her father. Thus, she is vulnerable to Kryptonite of all shade, though so affect her differently. She also has virtually no defenses against magic. She is susceptible to Red Sun radiation. These weaknesses alone are taxing and could prove very dangerous, but she is also rash and somewhat reckless. Therefore, she has a habit of getting herself into trouble and such. 

Equipment: Rachel doesn’t generally carry around much more than her phone and some money in her wallet. She isn’t one for purses or makeup so she doesn’t carry them. Otherwise she may carry a school bag for certain things. However, one piece of equipment she usually has on is her disguise bracelet. The bracelet itself looks rather normal, but the inside of it is riddled with wiring and technological marvels. It is used to sort of disguise her. It doesn’t change much. She just looks slightly different to the average person. However, it can be programmed to exclude certain individuals from its effects. 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Personality: Rachel is kind hearted, but reckless. She has a bit of a temper regarding certain areas of her life, one being her mother. Don’t bad mouth her or say anything remotely bad or she’ll snap at you. She’s generally, has a snarky comment or a bit of attitude, even if it is mostly playful and just to mess with people.  She likes to fight too. Thus, she quite enjoys sparring, or battle during missions if she can knock a few heads.

Jason is as you see him. Of course, his civvies usually don’t involve his uniform, but that is said of most heroes. He stands at 5’4”weighing somewhere around 200 or so pounds, possibly more, due to the combination of his Kryptonian and Atlantean musculature. Essentially he weighs much more than he looks.</div>
Name: Jason Arthur Kent or Jal-El
Alias: Superboy
Age: 14
Gender: Male 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Abilities/Skills: Superboy is a more capable and skilled combatant than his sister, but he still lacks a lot. However, apart from some actually training and skill with a trident, he is average. His grades are good, but he generally doesn’t focus too much in more classes preferring to focus on what’s important.

Powers: Jason possesses powers of both a Kryptonian and an Atlantean to a certain degree. <a href=""http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Kon-El_(New_Earth)#Powers"" rel=""nofollow"">His Kryptonian powers, derived from his father</a> are much weaker. He is still powerful, but even his sister is stronger in this field. His Atlantean powers are few. However, they do give him a certain affinity for Atlantean magic allows him a certain amount of protection from magic unlike other Kryptonians. In short his Atlantean abilities further increase his Kryptonian abilities as far as physicality, his senses, and mind are concerned. However, they allow him the added ability of being Amphibious, though his amphibious features generally only become shown when his body undergoes a small transformation. Thus, when any source of water touches his skin his body transforms and he gains gills and webbed features on his hands and feet. He has also shown signs of being able to telepathy communicate with ocean life, but it is hardly something he can do at will or at least on a large scale like, say, aquaman.

Weaknesses: Unlike his father and sister, Jason possesses some resistance against magic and could possibly use it. Still he is vulnerable against Kryptonite and Red Sun Radiation. However, he possesses a few weaknesses they do not. Because of his Atlantean blood, he is susceptible to dehydration and water deprivation. Meaning, being away from water for too long or being dehydrated can possibly cause him to weaken after extended periods of time slowly draining him of his powers. 

Equipment: Just like his sister, Jason does not carry much around. Generally, this includes his phone, money, and a water bottle on average as well as his book bag occasionally. Also like his sister, he has a device to hide his identity. However, his device is in the form of glasses. When on the surface and in school he wears the glasses. They effectively work the same way Rachel’s bracelet works. 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Personality: Jason is generally more calm minded and tends to think things through a bit more. He’s more strategic since he cannot simply rely on brute strength. Plus, he’s part Atlantean and firmly believes in his mother’s teaching. Peace of mind and one with the ocean are thoughts often allowing him to keep from acting so brashly. Of course, he does occasionally toss this out the window as his kind heart won’t allow him to simply sit back and watch another be hurt.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Superkid’s History"" type=""button"">Superkid’s History [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">To tell the story of Rachel we must first begin with her parents. Shortly after her presumed marriage, things turned out a bit differently than Rocket had imagined. Things seemed to fall apart rather quickly. At the same time Superboy and Miss Martian had begun to realize that they would not work for a multitude of reasons. This time however, the break was cleaner and they could go on being friends and teammates without the anger and awkwardness from before. That was the beginning of events set into motion to lead Superboy to become who he is today. 

Not long after this Superboy would end up going through a series of missions and solo jobs in which he discovered more about himself than he had ever known before. This led to the gaining of new abilities and a bit of a change in his physiology. Of course, this came after meeting a couple who believed they could truly help him. They’d been in hiding. Remnants of the team that made him. In meeting them he was able to beginning aging and was even his proper physical age after.  His new abilities also put him on track to being closer to Superman. Things were finally look up. However, the two were found and killed. There were to be no traces to the original project. Furious he attempted to get back at CADMUS. Luckily Rocket stopped him while the others were away. This was their first real moment together. 

After that things would progress. Slowly, but all the same things moved forward. He and Raquel fell in love and together they married and gave life to Rachel. However, not long after Raquel ended up passing away while in the line of duty. It was unavoidable. She and Connor had to leave Rachel with the Kents because there was an emergency that required all the help available. Connor tried, but he couldn’t save his wife. For a year it was him and Rachel. He got help here and there, but for that time it was just them. He was mourning at well. That is until he met his next and current wife. She had washed up on shore badly injured. He had been walking and carrying Rachel when he saw her. He couldn’t leave her there so he helped her. Her name was Zenith. She was the secret daughter of Orm, better known as Ocean Master, Aquaman’s half-brother.

Orm become furious with her and lashed out when she refused his teaching in favor of his brother’s. Because of that among other things she was set to be the next ruler of Atlantis. Aquaman had not had more children because of the outcome of his previous child. But he was set to retired and believed stepping down and simply living in peace with Mera could be the beginning of a new life of sorts. In the attack, Zenith was defended and orm died, but she was badly injured. Thus she washed ashore and Connor found her. 

Connor brought her to his home and began to nurse her to health after putting Rachel to bed. The next day Zenith awoke. After a brief misunderstand the two got to talking. She’d need more time to heal. And thus she stayed with Connor for the next couple of months. In the time the two grew closer. She was great with Rachel and things were going well. They two became a couple and during the second year of Rachel’s life her brother was born. Jason Arthur Kent. He kept the name Kent, Zenith chose Arthur in honor of Aquaman and the two chose Jason together. It was similar to Connor to when he and Raquel had chosen Rachel’s name. 

After this, Zenith would periodically return to Atlantis. She could not simply leave her new life and child. Aquaman and Mera both understood. They helped her with the mundane things, but Zenith handled anything else. She was powerful after all. And thus, things progressed smoothly. The children grew splendidly. Connor made sure Rachel knew about her mother and Zenith was there when she needed a woman in her life. Things were great. The two helped their children with the development and control of their powers. They were determined to make things works. 

Now, Zenith spends more time in Atlantis. The children are old enough to visit when they wish and Connor is always welcome. Sometimes she visits them to spend some time on land or drop by their school. Things get rocky every once in a while, but for the first time in a long time Connor is happy and things don’t seem to be getting ready to send him into a blinding rage or sorry depression. 

Rachel is moving through High school. She’s popular on many levels, but it doesn’t go to her head. She’s a regular on a few of the female sports teams including basketball, softball, volleyball and Track. All without her powers. Mostly. She plays the hero game and is quite happy with things. Though she does occasionally feel down over how things with her mother turned out. It’s saddening. She usually even carries a picture of her around.

Jason on the other hand tends to deviate a bit away from sports. He’d more on the academic side of thing. He quite disliked the chlorinated water in the swimming pools. It hurts his gill. Thus he tends to stick to unchlorinated water. Ocean, fresh, etc. Still, he does quite well for himself. He just recentlay entered high school so he may face some new expectations because of who his older sister is. He isn’t unpopular himself. He’s social. Just not as popular or social as his sister. The two are somewhat opposites in many ways. But that isn’t so bad. And where this will lead in the future is something only time can tell.</div></div>

Virgil takes after his father in many ways and his looks are no exception. He stands at 5’8” weighing 153 lbs of almost entirely muscle. He is often seen carrying a book bag which more often than not contains his uniform and something for either work or college.</div>
Name: Virgil Hawkins Jr. AKA JR
Alias: Shock
Age: 19
Gender: Male 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Abilities/Skills: Virgil is very intelligent and a great inventor. He can cook and practices boxing, karate and jujutsu. He can handle most household chores and has gotten fairly good at balancing his normal life with his hero life. He’s also a pretty good dancer and often the life a party when he finally goes out to just chill and relax.

Powers: Unlike his father, JR was born with his powers, which posed for an interesting experience for his parents. Still his abilities more or less mirror those of his power. 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Click here"" type=""button"">Click here [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">If you want to know the list of his abilities, you can check here. <a href=""http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Virgil_Hawkins_(Dakotaverse)#Powers"" rel=""nofollow"">No problem right? I mean obviously I’ll make a few alterations and stuff, but that’s more or less it.</a></div></div>

Weaknesses: Virgil is still human despite his healing abilities. Thus, he can be killed through conventional means if caught off guard and the like.

Equipment: Aside from his phone and money Virgil usually has his costume with him like most heroes. However in addition is a bit of equipment including his Shock Saucer which is of his own design. Charging it with his power he can control the size of it. This is why, when not in use it remains rather small and compact. At least, it is small enough to fit in his power. He also has trackers. These are small circular devices which can be stuck onto a target. With them he can listen in on conversations, record and track said target. Anything will be transmitted directly to his laptop, which is generally kept safe at home or in the base. Finally are his Shock goggles. Being that he needs his glasses, they take over the place of said glasses. However, for safety and so as not to lose them in battles they magnetically cling to his ears and head. Thus, they act as listening devices and communicators so he isn’t essentially deaf when using them. The lenses also incorporate vision altering technology. Infrared, Ultra Violet, X-Ray, etc. He has a multitude of different visions. 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Personality: Virgil is an all-around good guy. He isn’t the type to needlessly cause trouble, but he isn’t the type to be walked all over. He’s intelligent, but that doesn’t mean he can throw down if he needs to. Considerate and Kind are only a few of the words that could be used to describe him. 

History: Holding quite possibly the least tragic of any member of the teams lives Virgil essentially grew up somewhat normal. His mother and father raised him, though his father did a lot more of the work as his powers manifested fairly early. He was only about two or three at the time. His mother after a point couldn’t live in the house hold. She was terrified of being hurt. And by her own baby of all things. To this day Virgil blames himself and his powers for driving her away, but he doesn’t let it hold him back. 

Virgil’s life with his father from then on was fairly simple. Go to school, go home, make friends occasionally, and above all learn. He had to learn academics, learn to control his power, and himself. He had to learn at least enough so that he wouldn’t need to worry about accidentally hurting someone. He began the hero gig around the time he was a junior in High School. He thought if he could do something good, then why shouldn’t he? And like that Shock was born. His father was on the league. He wasn’t. 

Even now as a college student who lives on his own and actually works he’s only on the Team. Virgil doesn’t want to be stuck in his father’s shadow just yet. He needs to make himself up to the task of taking over the mantle of Static so when his father retired or, god forbid, worse, he’ll at least feel worthy even if the rest of the world doesn’t. 

Other: People think he has a weakness to water, but that isn’t true. If it were, he’d be useless in the rain.</div></div>

Erika is a young Half Japanese American girl. She resembles her father greatly, but overall her facial features just slightly give away her Asian heritage as she has her mother’s eyes and hair. She stands at 5’5” with a weight akin to a girl of her height and size who engages in strenuous physical exercise. Meaning, she’s pretty strong and tough notable by her musculature and overall appearance. Her civvies range through various outfits from conservative to somewhat showy and she often has a purse, though this is mostly to hold her uniform which also consists of the Red Hood helmet and a very well fitting black leather Jacket. Aside from that she also has a utility belt, notable smaller than other Bat Family members, likely because it holds considerably less.</div>
Name: Erika Todd
Alias: Red Hood
Age:  18
Gender: Female 

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Abilities/Skills: Erika’s skill set matches that of her late father, due to training from him as well as her “uncle” Dick Grayson, the current Batman. However, as the list is told, her abilities are far more akin to those of her more recent mentor Dick Grayson, even if she does utilizes her father’s skills a bit more.

Powers:  Being that she is a human, Erika has so superhuman capabilities.

Weaknesses: Erika is a human. Shoot, stab, large falls. She can be killed by conventional mean. It isn’t that hard to understand right?

Equipment: Erika like many others keeps money on her, a wallet really, a special cellphone, designed for her by a friend she coerced into doing so. Most of what she carries is kept in one purse or another. She has a multitude of stylized, red bat theme weapons. Her arsenal greatly resembles those of other Bat Family members. Batarangs, smoke pellets, nitrogen pellets, explosive pellets, etc. Everything is kept compact and small enough to carry around without weighing her down too much. In addition to all of this, she also utilizes various fire arms. On average the only two she has with her are two hand guns, generally holstered and strapped to her hips. But she is proficient with others and may take, or use them when necessary. 

Her Red Hood costume is equipment all on its own. It involves a long sleeve flexible, form-fitting body armor, capable of lessening intense impacts and is bullet proof to lower caliber rounds, which cuts off in the same fashion as a leotard so as not to totally get in the way of movement as the lower portion would have been more restricting. Her legs, however, are covered by her jeans and her feet by biker boots. Then, there is her utility belt. Essentially it holds the large items, such as batarangs and some ammo for her guns. It may also hold some trackers and such. 

Finally, she wears two masks, the first being a red-domino mask, fixed in place with spirit gum, and includes a built-in radio transmitter/receiver and Starlite night-vision lenses. Her gauntlets and boots each contain eight compartments in which she can store items like the smaller pellets and explosives. Her second mask is a metallic red hood, which offers many of the same functions as her mask, though also adds better protection for her face.

<div class=""bb-center"">-----------------------------------------------</div>

Personality: Erika is about as carefree and laid back as it gets. She likes hanging out, messing with people, a good fight. She essentially a good person at heart, but she believes in killing if necessary to get a job done. The occasional robbery to make a living instead of working is also fine with her. She’s generally not one to get angry. Maybe snarky. Maybe have an attitude. But generally she doesn’t really get angry. She makes others angry. Especially if she has a special reason too. Overall, she likes to do things her way and live by her rules. Not much more to it than that. 

History: Erika was the result of a time in which Jason Todd decided to make the attempt to settle down. He’d met woman. She was beautiful to him. In all honestly, he’d been in the middle of an important mission. It just kind of happened. He saw her again. And then again. The two fell in love. He’d decided to settle down just like that. He didn’t want to put his new love in danger. It was a somewhat simple life for a while. 

When the two conceived her, and Erika was born nothing made them happier. Jason hadn’t really gotten into trouble. So things were simple. Though, two well-known gangs in Gotham, Mafias really were quickly growing in power. The problem was that The Bat Family couldn’t handle everything. It wasn’t like when Bruce was in charge. Still, Jason had washed his hands of this. At least, He had thought he did. The thing was, Jason couldn’t stand letting the scum of Gotham do as he pleased. One night he was walking with his wife and daughter when he came across a little extortion op. He had them go ahead a bit just before breaking it up. He broke a few bones, and busted a few skulls. 

With that is should have ended. He just wanted to help the little old lady who owned the place. Besides, he couldn’t just stand by and watch. He wasn’t some heartless bastard. Not anymore anyway. About a week went by. Nothing. Soon a month… Then two. That’s when it happened. Somehow one of the idiots figured out who he was and where he lived. They didn’t know he was the Red Hood, but that didn’t matter. He’d wronged them and they wanted him dead. That Erika’s mother died. Jason wanted revenge. He knew now that this life wasn’t meant for him. But he had Erika to think about. So he brought her to the only person he could. 

Dick Grayson agreed to take Erika in. That was the last time she saw Jason. It was just before he left on his final mission. To this day those two gangs are almost nonexistent. Sure there are other gangs, but those two are pretty much gone. Eviscerated that night.  Meanwhile, Erika began to grow up in the mansion. She was often alone. Nightwing had a daughter and Bruce was there, but she was always away from them all. Well almost always. See, she had begun some training with Jason so she could defend herself. Nightwing picked up on that. Helped her, and then made her Robin. During this time there were a few instances when she played with his daughter, but only a few.

As time passed Dick would soon come to know how much like her father Erika was. She was wild and a bit brutal to the point that he wasn’t sure if he could continue to do this. But she made that decision herself.  Erika had pretty much isolated herself from anyone who was Dick. Even then she only saw him when they went out. She had her own ideas. A little theft, dishing out asskickings. In the end she ended up killing a man. He’d escaped three times and killed nearly a dozen people. Dick was furious, but she felt she was right. That was three years ago. That was when she left. She lives on her own now. She makes her living and handles herself. She makes her own rules. Occasionally she had wondered if she was missed. Maybe not though. Oh well. How she lives now and what she does is all up to her.

Name: Elliotte ""Ellie/Eli"" Grayson 
Alias: Robin
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Abilities/Skills: As she has had training from batman, Robin is in near perfect condition for someone her age, physically. She has above average speed, endurance, agility and strength. She is a master of martial arts, acrobatics, and stealth, though to a slightly lesser extent than her mentors. She has good deductive reasoning, is especially talented with hacking and computers, and strategy. She is also multilingual; she can understand English, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, Mandarin, German, French and Korean. However, she can mostly only understand them, and still has some trouble speaking some of them (especially Mandarin).

Weaknesses: Ellie is still a human, and can die from nearly anything a human can die from. While she is good at working with just one partner, Ellie isn't too good at conventional team work. She often would rather do her own thing than wait around for others. 
Equipment: Wrist computer, bat tech, bo-staff, a few other useful items in her utility belt. 
Personality: Ellie is sarcastic, determined, and... a little rebellious. While she has her mind set to do everything for the good of people, she can sometimes let her personal matters get in the way. She isn't easy to give things up, unless she knows she will lose. Though she may not act like it, as she's often not too serious, her intelligence is above average. Though she'll occasionally crack jokes, she's usually quite serious and focused on missions. 
History: Ellie is unaware of the identity of her mother. Dick never told her, and she doesn't inquire, figuring it must be a tender spot for him. Anyway, if she truly wanted to know, she would track her down. Though she suspects the woman - whoever she may be - simply abandoned them. Ellie doesn't mind, because her dad's all she's ever needed. It was never a secret that her father was Nightwing (and eventually Batman), but she was often secluded as a child so she didn't give out the secret. From about the age of six she began training, and when she reached age nine she began working alongside her father as Robin. She was very young when she learned to differentiate work, play, and training, and it was rare she blurred any of them, if at all. Still, Ellie was never really around other children, besides the apprentices of other heroes, and even then it was for work and not casually, leaving her rather lonely until more recent years. Sometimes as a child, she would often get quite rebellious if her father angered her, and would go off on missions on her own, which usually lead to punishment and injury. This is one of the reasons Nightwing thought she needed to be independent from him for a while; have a team of her own to be on, as he was part of the Justice League. 
Other: Her costume looks like <a href=""http://images5.fanpop.com/image/photos/28700000/Robin_Love-Pic-s-young-justice-28711629-289-600.png"">this.</a></div></div>

Name: Rowan Iris Crock
Alias: Impulse
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Abilities/Skills: Rowan can speak both English, and some Vietnamese. She's also skilled at gymnastics, and has high intelligence for her age.
Powers:  Rowan has only touched the tips of her speedster abilities. After all, she's never had proper training. Though she was born with her gift, it's never completely set in. She practices mostly on her own time, but is very capable... if only someone would properly teach her. 
 Superhuman speed - Rowan is extremely fast on her feet, definitely more than her sister, but considerably less than her cousin or mentor. This could be because she hasn't yet unlocked her potential, however, she just believes she's naturally 'slow.' 
Accelerated healing, superhuman endurance &amp; reflexes - Rowan can heal much faster than a normal human. She could get hurt one day and be fine a day or two after, maybe even a few hours after. She can also easily take a beating and still get up and be fine, but still, too much will weaken her. Naturally, she's able to move very quickly, and dodge attacks. 
Weaknesses: Her quick metabolism is a weakness; if without food for over twenty-four hours, she loses energy and cannot run. She can also die from anything a human can, even if she's more durable.
Equipment: Her costume, which can change to stealth mode and has goggles. Also, her compartments in her wrists to store food.
Personality:  Though she has a lot of energy, Rowan is generally more calm than her other speedster relatives. However, if you get her going, she's going - and won't stop. Rowan could talk for hours if you allow her to, and when she does it's often fast and barely understandable. She has a tendency to overreact when she's under stress, and isn't the best at handling pressure. Even if she's often so clumsy and clueless it's hard to tell, she's very smart, especially in the science fields, mostly chemistry and biology. Sometimes, Rowan will have phases where she is moody and irritable, and often sarcastic, not like she isn't ordinarily.

Name: Asher ""Ash"" Walter Crock
Alias: Speedy
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Abilities/Skills: He has above average speed, endurance, agility and strength. Ash is an excellent marksman, and has trained himself to be ambidextrous so he could use his bow with both hands. He is good at parkour and martial arts. He can speak English and Vietnamese.
Powers: None.
Weaknesses: If a human can die from something, so can he. He is completely human; injury, sickness, and anything under the moon can weaken or kill him.
Equipment: Bow and arrows - it can fold and snap back when he needs it, so it can be concealed. He has many different trick arrows, along with normal arrows. He also has a crossbow, as well as stealth technology.
Personality:  Ash is a little bit... arrogant. He often jokes around a lot, flirts with girls, and seems to care for little except himself. In fact, nearly his whole life, Ash has almost always been his own priority aside from his sisters. He just doesn't really work all that well in a team, since he's always had the mindset to look after himself. That's what his mother had told them, make sure to always look out for yourself. Still, this doesn't always apply to people he knows. If he's quite attached to someone, he'll often risk his life before he'd see them lose theirs. Family and close friends are his priority even over himself, and he'd go to the ends of the earth for them. Ash doesn't find it easy to talk about his problems. Instead, he usually keeps to himself. And though he jokes and flirts and acts sarcastic when casual, when he's doing his hero work, he's almost always serious. Still, he will sometimes crack jokes to lighten the mood, though it's not always effective. He is very protective over what's his and won't let anything get in his way of protecting it, whether or not that's a good thing. 
History: (will write)
Other: His costume is much like that of red arrow, besides the fact that it is greys and blacks... he much prefers it.</div></div>

Name: Quinn Jade Crock
Alias: Peregrine
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Abilities/Skills: She can speak English, Vietnamese, German and Spanish. Her intellect is above average, and she excels at mathematics. She has trained herself to be ambidextrous. She is excellent at acrobatics and a trained tracker, good at observing and thinking through problems. 
Powers: Quinn can run faster than a normal human, as well as heal faster, but she does not possess as high of a running ability as the Flashes. She's just a bit above average. Her strength is also more than a normal human, however, not by much. She heals quickly, or at least quicker than normal humans as well. Still, this is at a relatively low level compared to her other family members. It's mostly due to the speedster in her blood.
Weaknesses: Anything a human can die from, so can she. 
Equipment: A bow with various kinds of arrows that can fold an unfold, a crossbow, a few other small gadgets, and explosive pellets. 
Personality: Much like her younger brother, Quinn has a very independent attitude. She doesn't like to accept help, even if she so badly needs it. She takes pretty much everything seriously, and her siblings often joke that she <span class=""bb-i"">can't</span> take a joke; this only proceeds to annoy her more. She's very easily annoyed, and prone to arguing. She doesn't get along well with others who don't take things seriously, at least sometimes. Her younger sister can occasionally be an exception to this. Quinn will do anything to get her job done, even if it means compromising other things to do it. She doesn't work that well with a team and never has, so she has always distanced herself from working with others when possible. She doesn't even really want to work on a team or watch over one. Despite all this, Quinn can be compassionate. If someone is truly hurt or upset, she will do her best to comfort them. And though she may seem rather emotionless, sarcastic and cold on the outside, she can be rather kind if she cares for someone. If. She cares for someone.  
History: (will write)
Other: Her costume is much like her mothers, only there is a bird symbol on the chest; it is also instead a blue color, as she wanted to distance herself from 'traditional green'.</div></div>

Name: Kat
Alias: Kat
Age: Unknown, likely a few years.
Gender: Female.
Abilities/Skills: Her large size, muscle, teeth and claws allow her to be easily lethal. Though an animal, her brain is far more advanced, and she can process thoughts nearly like a human... she is mentally like a pre-teen in her ability to process thought and react to them.
Powers: Though it's a secret to many, Kat is a telepath. This was an implant given by the scientists - she can speak through her mind to those she wants to, even if it's only done rarely. 
Weaknesses: Kat is very afraid of medical/science equipment and fire. She will not get near it. She can also be controlled if the small chip in her brain is hacked into. 
Equipment: None.
Personality: Kat is a fairly quiet and very protective feline. She often lashes out aggressively to anyone or anything that irritates her, despite knowing this isn't appropriate. She's very intelligent for an animal. She can somewhat strategize and process her thoughts at a human level. This also gives her rather human emotions when she lets herself have them, such as joy or sadness. Still, she's mostly feline in nature, and is quite affectionate when she grows an attachment to a person. 
History: Her whole life, Kat has been in a lab. In fact, she was born in one. People were doing animal testing, seeing what they could give animals in order to make them more powerful and controllable, seeing if they could weaponize them. They decided to interbreed tigers and lions to make an even bigger, stronger species. When Kat was born, she was the only one of her litter, but a very large and strong feline. They grew and trained her, and when she was an adolescent they put a chip in her brain in order to control her thoughts and actions, hence the 'weapon' part of the deal. When the group found them, they disabled the computer that was controlling her chip and though some parts of it still worked, she was able to stop following commands from her masters.

Name: M'Att M'orzz
Alias: Martian Boy
Age: About 16, physically. 
Gender: Male
Abilities/Skills: Hand-to-hand combat and telepathy are some skills he possesses. 
Powers: Shape shifting - he can completely change his physical appearance. It can be human or humanoid. He finds turning into girls a little challenging, but he can usually do it with focus. It also gives him quicker healing than normal. 
Camouflage - He is not completely invisible, but can change the color of his body to fit his surroundings. If he had a bioship, he could also do this. His strength is above a normal humans since he is a martian. He also has density shifting, but is cautious about using this ability in case it goes wrong. He's much more durable than a human.
Telepathy - he can speak to people through their mind. He can also link up others' minds so they can all speak in this manner. He sometimes forgets he shouldn't do this. He has the capability to control others through this, but chooses not to most of the time... it doesn't feel right. He can translate any language, but mostly speaks martian and english. He has telekinesis, but can easily lose control of it if he isn't focused. He can use this telekinesis to fly. 
Weaknesses: Fire, extreme pressure.
Equipment: Bioship - he was given his mothers bioship to use, as she no longer needs it. 
Personality: Matt is a lot more... quiet, than his mother. He isn't nearly as outgoing, in fact he's rather cautious. Still, he's very polite and quite fascinated with humans and wildlife, and makes an effort to be a nice person, even if he's quite clueless a lot of the time... not to mention clumsy. He tries to be focused during important matters, but he admittedly has a bit of an attention problem... It's hard for him to stay focused on one task, even very simple ones.
History: Megan eventually grew weary of earth and traveled back home to Mars. When she did so, she met a nice Martian Man and with him had a child; her son, M'att. Eventually, thanks to her uncle, M'Gann had received word from earth that they were in dire need of help in the league, and so she had taken it upon herself to return to earth and brought her son along with her. Though he had good control over his powers as he was taught by his mother, his knowledge of earth was very limited. Nevertheless, his mother thought it a good idea to team him up with a few other young heroes; it would make him more outgoing, and it was the perfect way to help him get more accustomed to earth. 
Other: Matt's costume can be anything he wants it to be - he can shape-shift, after all, and his clothes are organic.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Backstory"" type=""button"">Backstory [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The first born of the Crock children was Quinn; Shortly after Wally's death, Artemis had started feeling rather... ill. After taking a series of tests, despite her denial, she had indeed fallen pregnant. And since she was solely convinced her boyfriend had passed away, she hadn't a clue what to do. However, with support from family members of both her and Wally as well as friends, the baby girl was born without complications. Artemis had decided the name Quinn to be befitting of the blonde haired, green-eyed baby girl, and so she was named. With some funds from Dick, she was able to buy a nice house to raise her child in. Eventually she 'retired' from her hero work in favor of caring for her child.

After a while, when Quinn was four or so, she decided maybe it was time to move on... and so she met a man with whom she fell in love. The two moved in together and Artemis had fallen pregnant a second time; this time to a boy, which they had decided to name Asher. And while through her pregnancy, her boyfriend seemed supportive--even enthusiastic--after the baby was born, well... The two began to argue. He left one night and didn't return, leaving Artemis with two children to care for. 

Things became stable in her life again and Asher grew to be a few years old. When he did, Artemis realized that she still really did miss Wally, and it left her with some kind of void; they had made a plan B before he had died. Just in case, for both of them... And so Artemis became pregnant with her third baby, this time another girl... and another child of Wally. This one looked much more like him than Quinn, and it seemed to satisfy her for the time being.

As her children grew, she realized more and more how dangerous it really was for them... Especially since the league had asked her to assist on missions again. So, she began to train them. Quinn was trained more vigorously than her son, as she seemed much more interested. She had taken on the identity of Peregrine, and had begun to sneak out to do hero work against her mother's orders. Ash, however, was a bit different. He liked independence, but preferred to work alongside his mother during missions, at least for a while. Still, once he'd become a teenager he wanted his independence, and so he and his sister occasionally worked together. But, he preferred to work alone, and so he took on the identity of Speedy.

Then, there was Rowan... She seemed reckless, and though Artemis trained her, she was very cautious about what she could do. She was rarely allowed on missions, and despite the fact that she had clearly taken after her father as far as powers went, Artemis kept her mostly a secret... besides a few small meetings with Bart on occasion. She was in no way meeting her potential, but as far as Artemis was concerned, she was better off and safer this way. Rowan wasn't happy about it, but she accepted it... even if she tried training herself from the eyes of her mother.

Quinn eventually was offered a spot on the league, and though she seriously debated it, she eventually rejected the idea. When Dick formed the second Young Justice, he went right to Artemis in hopes to recruit ash - though she was skeptical of his involvement, he surprisingly agreed quite enthusiastically. Artemis still occasionally works missions for the league, but mostly stays at home or works her normal job. And as for Rowan, well, she lives like any teenager would; any teenager with speedster abilities and superhero relatives, anyways.</div></div></div>"

Age: 17 
Gender: Female 
Race: Vampire 
Bio: When Serenity was growing up she was absolutely silent, she is very socially awkward and can only talk when being approached to, she’s not shy whatsoever. She shared a cell with 3 other girls, and they really liked Serenity’s hair, and after that they all decided a name for her. The only time she was being loud was in the experiment room, she would scream and kick at the scientists hoping to get free and escape from the laboratory. She has no idea who her parents are either, or even where they are, all she knows is that they are a wealthy family that pays for assassinations. All of her inmates in her cell died from being experimented on, and she has to take on that burden to live for them; and even get revenge one day. Her weapon is a rapier, that she took from a vampire she killed one time, she occasionally has a knife on her as her secondary weapon.

Other: She occasionally gets blood lusts, and normally goes around the team and asks if she can do a quick bite or two to get some blood, she doesn’t make a huge fuss about her blood lust though. She also has many scars around her stomach, as she got experimented on the most there. She is no longer silent like how when she was younger, Serenity can actually be a smartass if she wants to. You can normally see her eating a lollipop most of the time.</div>"

(Darkish blonde hair, brown eyes, dark green and black scarf)
Age: 15 
Gender: Female
Race: Vampire
Bio: As a child Rebecca was a big crybaby, especially when she was being experimented on. Because of this scientists decided to remove her voice box, so for the longest time Rebecca was unable to speak. For the majority of her life Rebecca has hated herself for being a vampire, which is why she has no problem killing other vampires. Unless it was a friend of hers that she trusts, she would have to be asked to kill them. Eventually Rebecca got her voice box back, scientists needing her to have one for some experiment. However Rebecca still has the habit of being quiet sometimes. Rebecca also had one fang removed by the scientists. The tooth grew back, but only as a normal one. So in a nutshell, Rebecca is a one-fanged vampire.

Other: Rebecca can sometimes be a bit antisocial. Otherwise she usually has a calm demeanor. Rebecca has a scar going down her throat on her neck, but she usually has it covered by her scarf along with her mouth. She has also had her scarf for as long s she can remember, so she is very close to it. If anyone tries to take it away from her she’ll start to get agitated and maybe even beat someone up for it so they can’t take it. Since Rebecca doesn’t like herself for being a vampire, she will refuse to feed off for blood almost all the time. She will once in a blue moon if she has to. Also, when Rebecca feels like she’s going to cry, she will just leave the room.</div>"

~Stands at 4’8 | Very slender and petite~

Autumn Cara Eirwen

16

Female

Half-Vampire

Her mother wasn’t known for commitment. She slept around behind her husbands’ back and he was none the wiser. To outside world, they were the perfect couple. But when Autumn’s mother got pregnant after a one-night stand with a stranger she met in a bar, she played it off that it was her husbands’ child. But what she didn’t realize was that the stranger she had met was a vampire and when Autumn was born it was evident that she was different. Luckily, Autumn’s mother had white hair so her husband didn’t question who’s child it was right away. However, as Autumn grew he realized that this girl wasn’t normal.

 When Autumn came running to her father one day and showed him “a neat trick she could do” he became horrified when she created a blue, glowing butterfly. There was a huge fight between her parents and the truth was revealed that Autumn was not his child. He kicked her and her mother out. Her mother managed to get a crappy job as a waitress as a diner. She was constantly blaming Autumn for their misfortune. One day her mother was especially drunk and threw a beer bottle at Autumn. It hit the left side of her face and her mother panicked as she started bleeding and took her to the hospital, claiming the girl had tripped with a cup and fell into the glass. The doctors were able to remove all the glass fragments but Autumn lost the sight in her left eye.

Afterword things spiraled downward further. Autumn would get beaten almost every day. When Autumn turned six her mother loaded her into the car and they drove for a long time. They pulled into a run-down hotel where a van was waiting. Two men got out and Autumn’s mother dragged her over. She shoved her daughter at the men and turned to leave. Autumn cried, trying to cling to her skirt and begging her to not go, that she would behave. Her mother turned and shoved her away harshly, sending the small girl to the ground. Her parting words before she turned and left haunted Autumn for the rest of her life.

<font color=""red"">”I should have never gave birth to you, you monster.”</font> 

As the car drove away Autumn laid there, stunned. The men loaded her into the van and when they arrived at the facility Autumn curled up into a ball, gazing blankly at the wall as tears streamed down her cheeks. All the girl would say was sorry, over and over again. After a while Autumn stopped talking at all and withdrew in on herself.

She is able to create onjects/items with her energy.

Her past scarred her and as a result, Autumn created a wall around herself. She is a very sweet and kind girl that upsets easily. Very clumsy but caring. However, she withdrew in on herself and erected a wall around herself. Everyone always gets hurt around her and if she distances herself from people then they can’t be hurt and neither can she.</div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Vivian Vanbrooke | 18 | Female | Half-Vampire</span></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Vivian was the product of an affair between a woman named Natalie and an ancient vampire whom she knows very little about. The man her mother was married to stood in as her father for as long as she could remember. However, as Vivian grew, it became apparent she wasn't the man's daughter. She thirsted for meat that was too raw and had an aversion to sunlight. Her brown eyes occasionally looked red, too, and the husband grew suspicious. He had always been verbally abusive, but grew physically violent as his suspicion grew. This ended with Natalie's death and nearly Vivian's. Instead, she was ""rescued"" and held captive for experiments and the like. 

Now, she has a wish to find her real father. What she will do if she ever does, however, is a mystery even to her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> She's able to teleport, but this is limited by her sight. If she can't see the destination with her naked eyes, she can't teleport there. If she's blinded, she can't teleport at all.

Appearance: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/DcSSy8z.jpg""/>

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Race: Half-Vampire

Bio: Robin was born in the lab to a life of pain and torture. As a young child, his fangs were filed to the size of ordinary teeth. They grew back, but when they tried again, he wasn't nearly as lucky. They completely removed his fangs with no anaesthetic. After much complaining and begging, he was allowed basic metal fillings. He has seen many test subjects come and go, many of which were his friends, leaving him an insomniac. He is naturally distrusting of almost everyone, human and vampire. He has to kill vampires to assure his eventual freedom, but he hates humans for what they did to him.

Magic: Clear Mind (Robin clears his mind from all distractions and focuses on battle, allowing him to deliver crippling strikes with terrifying accuracy)

Weapon: 'Adra', Robin's Flamberge

Their boss had given all of them their first mission, the eight members of Blood Raid of course. Serenity had her rapier away in her sheath that was attached to a belt on her side, she had a coat over it to conceal it from humans. She also had her hair up for once, since she considers this as physical activity. She started to think back to their the meeting before the eight of them left for their first mission.

I felt disgusted to be even around this man, but to be used by the vampire hunters? That's even worse. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""You know.. you all had potential... but this is where the fighting begins. It's either life, or death.""</font> The male said once again, just pacing around all of us. Oh how I just wanted to hit him, he's just one of those 'cool and rebellious' hunters, trying to be a leader. Oh how he pissed me off!

A quiet and harrowing vibe envelopes the sturdy, cold hulk who stood in the same room as the other misfits. He had a look of vengeance in his face. A scar that had cut so deep that it changed the identity of who he was. Once innocent, he was abandoned by the very thing he could only depend. Instead, he became something else that far blasphemed the ethics of all religious laws around the world. He became shunned and rejected. Wounding was the years of experimentation. All that left of his cracking shell was fury, bloodlust and madness.</div>"

He really didn't care. He gently gently grasped the handle of his sword that was sheathed at his side. He looked around at the others standing with him. He vaguely had heard of a few of them, but didn't really know a whole lot about them. He also noticed a few other sword wielders. Robin sighed. He would make it out of here, if it were the last thing he did.</div>"

Although she had listened with her ears, her attention had been on her nails as she freed them of dirt. On the inside, however, she had been excited, and she struggled to keep her heart rate even. Her fellow vampires would occasionally hear it skip a beat, but the contrast to her nonchalant appearance would cause confusion. This mission would be her chance to get out of this hell hole. The boss had said something about the group as a whole and she took the chance to glance down the line of the other Blood Raiders, wondering who'd she be with partnered with and if they'd let go or if she'd have to kill them to escape.</div>"

It could be taken as if she was spacing out or not paying attention, but she was indeed listening. She looked to one side and then the other at her new colleagues. So these are the people who survived the same experiences she went through, or at least...similar. Now she was going to kill other vampires with them. If it's to kill another vampire, so be it. Trying to escape these days, to get away, it's honestly not even worth the time anymore. Though, if someone were to ask her to help them escape or to escape with them, she supposes she can go along. Possibly not, maybe. It depends, really. Just to see where it all ends up. Rebecca looks to her left side, down at her sheathed katzbalger sword. Then she looked back forward, closed her eyes with a light exhale. This was probably going to be a long day she wanted to get over with.</div>"

The other one, the injured left eye was covered with an eye-patch so it left her with only one good eye. She bore an emotionless expression as she listened to the boss describe what it was they were going to be doing. Not that she really cared, she was just following orders. At least that's what she tried to convince herself was the truth but it was a lie. She cared, of course she did but it broke her too much to care because it always ended up hurting both herself and others around her. People always left her so it was best to just not get involved. However, the real Autumn was hidden deep inside, protected by walls. And so Autumn stood there with a blank expression, looking for all the world like she was bored.</div>"

Its nearly impossible to escape so its better to follow the rules instead of waisting your energy attempting to free yourself from an endless hell.

<font color=""#f49ac2"">""Well, introduce yourselves.""</font> Serenity said as she walked out of the front facing towards the groups, then placing a lollipop in her mouth as she stared at them with narrowed eyes.

That bossy remark coming from the hunter was nearly responded with a snarl but he was long gone before then. As the room was left to the vampires in the room eyes began to dart all over one another.

The first was a brat who seemed to be too over his own head with his battling prowess. That frail body could easily be broken with by his own fists. 

Another was the obviously misplaced reject standing upside-down the ceiling. His comments only served to taunt him to consuming his essence-- poor boy wouldn't last longer than a second.

The broken shell of a cyclops was the other monster that isolated herself away from the world around her. She'd best wake up to the horrors of reality or die while she's still worthless.

That half-covered face was only hiding that big ego of hers. What'd she think too good of herself to even show half of her appearance? He couldn't wait to just rip those cloths apart and sever her neck whilst feasting on her blood.

One only person who may share a similar view of the world was one halfling-- but even that disgusted him. He deserved those fake vampire fangs.

Another female was too busy taking care of her own vanity. He was sure that she'd have other problems to worry about when his whips ripped her skin and shatter her bones.

The last girl... He turned his eyes to already see her looking directly at him. His pupils dilated and focused on her, as if interrogating her intentions in gazing at his direction. Her dismissive tone as she spoke was enough to put him on a bad mood. He will not be ordered around by some lady who thinks highly of herself. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Is there blood on my face or are you just happy to see me?""</font> Dracul stated wittily at her.</div>"

She continued her apathetic facade as she looked again at the rest of the Blood Raiders, her golden eyes alight with curiosity. It was a good mix of halflings and full fledged vampires, and she knew the full blooded ones had the most potential to be dangers. Her gaze lingered on the bigger one--he was perhaps the most dangerous, but she remained silent in her judgement as the others began exchanging words. 

The lovely pink haired girl spoke first, prompting everyone to introduce themselves but conveniently not starting them off. That brought a small smirk to Vivian's face, though her silence continued as Pinkie an Muscles continued to bicker. The handsome albino-looking boy introduced himself as Robin and was brave enough to declare himself a halfie. Vivian was the same, but she supposed if these so-called full vampires were so great, they could tell without her saying anything. 

Vivian was oh-so tempted to join in the banter and make some catty remarks of her own. However, this was a good time to observe above all else. Finally out of isolation, her fellow hunters would be flexing their egos, contending for the ""alpha"" position among the group. Vivian, however, would keep mostly to herself until it was time to flee. Even if she wasn't stronger than whomever she would get matched up with, the element of surprise could be the deciding factor in her escape.

""<span class=""bb-i"">Anyway</span>,"" Vivian interjected after Muscles' remark to Pinkie, ""I'm Vivian."" She sat up straighter, gesturing to herself. ""Vivian Vanbrooke.""</div>"

Then one of the girls turned to them, wanting the group to introduce themselves. What? Did this just transition into a social club? No matter, it only makes sense to get to know your teammates. However Rebecca was in a slight antisocial mood at the moment, so she just stood there silently looking at the tank and pink haired girl. It seemed like they were about to start a fight already, which is why she had an unamused look in her eyes. The dark haired girl, introduced as Vivian, seemed to have managed to break it up between the two just by jumping in and introducing herself. Still, Rebecca felt a little antisocial, but she'll introduce herself sooner or later. Right now she was just watching silently.</div>"

She took a step towards Vivian. <font color=""#f49ac2"">""..What a nice name..""</font> Serenity mumbled to herself before looking around to see the stares everyone was giving her. She took a step back and sighed, placing a hand on her hip. <font color=""#f49ac2"">""My name is Serenity Coldwell. Vampire.""</font> Serenity introduced herself, she would clearly look like a vampire with that pale skin of hers, and how she acts of course is kind of creepy.</div>"

One of the girls proclaimed they should introduce themselves though introduced herself only after three other people introduced themselves first. Her crimson eye fell on the boy who called himself Robin. Hmmm, seems like she wasn't the only half-vampire. However she guessed they were few in number. She briefly wondered if it would cause problems with relationships between the two beings. Her attention was then drawn to a hulking vampire and the girl who had first spoken. Before things could escalate though one of the girls, Vivian, stepped in. Feeling no inclination to speak up Autumn continued to gaze at them. Why did they need to know her name? It had no relation to the job at hand and frankly she had no desire to establish relationships with any of them.</div>"

Although surprised by the girl's compliment, she remained grinning confidently. ""Thanks, babe,"" she teased, winking at Pinkie. Then her attention was elsewhere; she looked around at the hunters who insisted on being quiet. Then Seth jumped in, stealing the spotlight, and Vivian allowed her gait to relax again. If someone else wanted the show, it was all theirs. She already introduced herself, so she could go back to observing for the time being.</div>"

No one here seemed of interest to him, so he drew his blade and began honing its' edge. He couldn't say he was excited to be working with these people, but he really didn't have a whole lot of choice, so he may as well make the best of hit. He filed the name of the people who had introduced themselves already, and their attitude so far. <span class=""bb-i"">Seth, Vivian and Serenity</span>; Robin thought to himself.

They all grew up in that laboratory, so she questioned herself: How could he keep smiling like that? She turned back towards Vivian to notice that she winked at her, Serenity smirked at her. <font color=""#f49ac2"">""Also, if you're asking why I am communicating with you. There is something called teamwork, because if there isn't even teamwork, why would there even be a team?

It's odd really, she never expected anyone to have a...""happy"" demeanor. Is Seth naturally like that or is he brainwashed by the lab or something? Rebecca took every name introduced to note inside her head. This was quite the nice mix of folks for a team, however Rebecca knows not to get too nice with them yet. In the future, who knows. Maybe someone will backstab the group or maybe someone will just turn out to be a total ass in general. Which is why Rebecca is going to be the ""observer"" of the group, per say. Though, Rebecca wouldn't be surprised if anyone else had the same idea as her. Serenity, the one who insisted on giving out names, then looked to Rebecca raising an eyebrow at her as she demanded for her name in a nutshell. Rebecca's eyes remained unamused, ""How polite,"" her sarcasm starts to kick in already. Rebecca started to compare Serenity to one of those bratty, bossy teenaged girls at a high school in her head. Great. Just what everyone needed. Rebecca cuts off her sarcasm as she thought that was the last thing they needed as she slightly adjusts her scarf over her already-covered mouth, ""Rebecca Foster,"" she plainly says, her eyes still giving a slightly unamused look.</div>"

Getting to know each other did not benefit the mission so why were they wasting time insisting on introductions? All they needed to do was complete the mission, that was it. Not being all 'buddy-buddy' with each other. And so, Autumn continued to stand silently away from the others. She had changed positions and was now leaning against the wall with her arms crossed over her chest. It was blatantly clear that she did not share the same views that the others did about getting to know one another.</div>"

Then taking a step back from Rebecca continuing to face him. <font color=""#f49ac2"">""Because you're clearly going to be the one stabbing people in the back, if I'm right?""</font> Serenity said with a confident smirk, then pulling her rapier out.</div>"

His eyes did not turn even when her rapier was drawn. He kept his tightly crossed arms and continued to show the same compassion that struck him before. Her challenge seemed as though it was unanswered, but Dracul's words otherwise. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Go on then. Make your move.""</font></div>"

She opened her mouth to add more when Pinkie pulled her thin sword and closed it again. <span class=""bb-i"">Oh you have got to be kidding me,</span> she thought in irritation, looking between her and Muscles as she waited for something to happen. Though, seeing that Dracul wasn't so quick to act, Vivian decided to speak up after all. 

""Okay, kids, let's not kill each other before we even get a whiff of fresh air. Save the squabbling for once the hunt is on so the boss man can't step in,"" she suggested, her gaze sliding over to Serenity in challenge.

The way Serenity smirks at her, is she trying to be intimidating towards her? If so, then it didn't work. Although, Rebecca got a sense of satisfaction from Serenity, as if she was interested in her in some kind of fashion. Yet again, it seemed like Serenity took interest to other members as well, such as Vivian for example. Just then Rebecca watched Serenity responded to the tank again, Rebecca was half listening to what they were saying. Something about backstabbing or some other. Rebecca almost reacted to the drawing of Serenity's rapier, but before she could Vivian stepped in and therefore remained silent to see where it would go. If the predicament were to go any further, Rebecca would be prepared on how to interfere.</div>"

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Here is member number eight, his name is Prestilence Umbra. Take good care of him.""</font> The boss said crossing his arms, then staring towards Prestilence to ask him to come in. He had his hands in his jackets.

He was prepared to interject between Dracul and Serenity, but didn't need to as Vivian stepped in before him. Robin sighed, one among many countless sighs this morning. If they were going to butt heads at every possible moment, how the hell were they supposed to kill any vampires? Robin turned his attention to the newcomer. He honestly didn't care anymore at this point. They had already had fights between each other, what was another crazy-haired freak gonna do? None the less, Robin held out his hand for a handshake. ""Robin Laher"" he said his name simply to the newcomer, with a tone that expected an answer from the new vampire.</div>"

The stationary hulk remained to observe the others closely. It seems as though all of his 'allies' had a willful scent of cooperation with one another. Perhaps this could prove... Interesting.

Then a newbie walked in, and her gaze flickered to him with narrowed eyes. Robin was kind enough to greet him and the young man revealed himself to be Pestilence--and a half-vampire. Vivian's eyebrows furrowed together; why were her fellow halfies so okay with announcing their heritage? Was it strange of her to be so self conscious about her human half? Not liking where that introspection was going, she offered a wave and a ""Yo,"" to the newcomer before falling back into silence.</div>"

Honestly, when would they be through with the niceties and get on with the mission? They were wasting time playing friends when they could have already left.

Half"" he said simply, hopefully ending the conversation, but considering his luck so far, he very much doubted it. He adjusted his stance, feeling something uncomfortable. Something about this new person startled him. He was so... Friendly and.... Talkative. Robin didn't expect much friendliness today. He had noticed some of this from Seth, but Seth hadn't kept talking and asking questions. His friendliness didn't even sound fabricated. It sounded like genuine interest. But then he laughed internally. <span class=""bb-i"">What do I know about being friends.</span> He thought to himself.</div>"

His eyes punctured every single person in the room, noting everything that he's currently seen and continued to keep his voice silent. WHen was the mission were going to believe? Did the 'higher' up really wanted them to enjoy a cup of blood together and expect it to continue and raise a healthy relationship? He didn't think so. If the team's number were going to rise-- Each member of the team would become a burden in every instance...</div>"

He continued down the alley, looking for this jeweller. Robin hadn't payed a whole lot of attention when they got their mission brief, all he got was 'Vampire', 'Jewller' and 'Kill'.

Rebecca also kept a firm grip on her sheathed katzbalger sword, ready to draw it when necessary. From what Rebecca had heard the target was a jewelry thief and of course, a killer. A jewelry thief. It's that part that makes it sound like that they're cops instead of hunters, but it's focused on the ""killer"" trait of the target now, isn't it?

He loosely held the brilliantly crafted sword at his side, closing his eyes, letting Clear Mind go to work. After a second or so, Robin dashed forwards at unbelievable speeds, slicing at the vampire with one expertly placed strike, killing him instantly. Robin walked over to the now deceased vampire, respectfully, shutting the dead man's eyelids.

His limbs moved lighter than a feather and his eyes carefully dissect the path he sees. No struggle or hustle here... No visible tracks or cracks where he treaded. It seems as though the target was not here-- if otherwise Dracul's sense of smell would tell. There was a foul stink that he could smell.

She could see two of her teammates in combat while the others were on the ground or high up going through their own methods for tracking down this vampire. A noise behind her alerted and she whirled, hand grabbed her weapon and transforming it into sword form. She barely managed to catch the swing of the sword heading for her neck. She pushed the sword away and circled the other vampire. He lunged at her and she whirled away, slashing at him. He hissed at her. Lunging again, he feigned to the left before catching her off guard on her right side. Both vampires tumbled towards the ground. She managed to plunge her sword through the man's heart and his lifeless body landed onto the ground with a quiet thump. 

A blue, glowing disk appeared under Autumn's feet and her fall slowed until she landed lightly on the ground, the disk disappearing. She heard a noise and whirled, sword transiting into a bow and arrow, a glowing arrow materializing. When she recognized Robin, Serenity, and Pestilence she nodded at them, the first time she had acknowledged them and relaxed the string as the arrow disappeared. Her weapon transformed back into its carrying form and she replaced it back onto her back. She then turned and continued down the alleyway.</div>"

So far so good it seems, at least everyone can handle themselves. For a moment she was distracted from observing them all, but her focus returned to the mission itself soon enough. Now it was only a matter of time until Rebecca got her action to try out her power of illusions. Rebecca always wanted to try her illusions on people from the outside, on different people. She was eager, you could say. Manipulating other people's senses, it may not look it but Rebecca is slightly entertained by it when she uses it herself. It was really the only fun thing to do when you're stuck in a lab, being forced to do things against your will then having free time with practically nothing.

Just then, an enemy vampire jumped down from the taller building's roof onto the roof Rebecca was on. He ran out to the center first before quickly facing the street and running towards that direction. Either this vampire didn't notice Rebecca because Rebecca was still hiding in the taller building's shadow, or he was just moving fast. Rebecca thought fast as her eyes glowed red, and the vampire  came to a sudden stop right at the edge of the roof as he and only he saw that he was about to jump into what seemed like an endless pit. The vampire looked down towards it, stun in confusion. Rebecca simply walks up behind him with her unsheathed katzbalger sword in hand as she makes the action. Stab to the heart, twist, done. The enemy's body went limp and Rebecca caught him by the shirt before he fell forward off the roof. Rebecca dragged his body off to the side where she was previously in the shadows. Rebecca walked out of the shadows again, plainly as if nothing were to happen. Except there was another vampire coming at her, and once he made a strike his attack suddenly slipped through Rebecca as if she was nothing or not there at all. Another vampire in confusion, but not for long this time as the illusionary hologram of Rebecca disappears, the one the vampire struck at, and the real Rebecca comes dashing out slitting the vampire's throat, and then another thrust to the heart. Second limp body, second kill. Rebecca's red eyes transition back to brown before she hides the new body in the shadows as well. ""Time to move out,"" she mumbles to herself. Rebecca jumps up and kicks herself off the wall to get up on the taller building, dashing across the roof and then another. Soon she silently jumps down to a random alleyway.</div>"

She stood idly by in a comic book store, merchandise in her hands as her eyes glazed over page by page. In her opinion, this mission didn't even need so many on the case, anyway. Besides, her business allowed her to work toward another goal: she listened as her teammates chased and tracked the thieves or murderers or whatever, remaining passive as they moved farther and farther away. And once the city was relatively quiet, she put the book down and walked out the comic book store, her golden eyes flickering about. Confident that she was alone, she pulled a tourism map from her back pocket and started for the nearest bus station.</div>"

However, she wasn't incredibly stupid and her gaze would occasionally flicker about as she kept alert. She would occasionally catch a whiff of blood, and she assumed it was the target. Though it might have been her fellow Blood Raiders and that would be even better. It was their first time out and about, after all. Who's to say they didn't totally fuck it up?

He began to sense the presence of A Vampire not like the ones he recognized. He flew to where the Vampire was located. When he landed he was in front of a jewelry store, inside there was a vampire with a messed up Ki energy. Pestilence walked inside the Jewelry Store and began clapping. <font color=""crimson"">""Well, well hello there Vamp-""</font> Pestilence wasn't able to finish his sentence when 2 Vampires lunged at him, since he was covered in Razor Sharp winds, the 2 vampires were quickly turned into mincemeat.

He could smell the target. He's certain that this scent leads to the Vampire that he would be required to kill-- And so he follows silently among the night. Destruction could be heard amongst the town and sirens began to sound. Sounds like those idiots were making more of a show than a real hunt. Despite wanting to kill everyone himself, perhaps he had to play it good-dog. He followed the scent and stayed out of open alleys, almost becoming shadow itself.</div>"

<div class=""bb-h2"">Plot</div>For the last 500 years, mysterious attacks have been made in the community, bite marks in their necks, and blood being drained in the process. The creatures that have been attacking are labeled as vampires, but nobody knew about these creatures. Only the hunters and scientists had a right to know, since they wanted to destroy these species. So they have had experiments on different children, who were bred by either a human and a vampire, or two vampires. So in a way they have vampire blood in their bodies. They are either born in the labs, or taken in at a certain age, but most are born there. They were held in captivity and were experimented on literally every single day of their life, the ages in the labs ranged from 7-16. They were well educated, but were treated like dirt, forcing to live under the harsh conditions of imprisonment. These children wanted to escape, but were unable to due to the security guards that were hunters. 

Now it’s 5 years later and these children have grown up, only 15 remained left out of the hundreds who were experimented on. Eight of these are used as weapons by the hunters, they were trained in the last 2 years of their imprisonment. These 8 kill vampires, either in small teams, or the entire group themselves. The groups name is also known as Blood Raiders

I didn't get that from his post at all. I think by ""aura"" in that one post he meant the generic atmosphere and tenseness in the room.

Well it's not necessarily aura reading. More like Ki reading. Since Wind/Air is one of the classical Elements, it has connections with Ki reading as such Pestilence has trained his mind to read Ki energy and stuff like that. But he cannot read it well.

Normally, he can be rather friendly and outgoing, but he immediately clams up whenever he becomes afraid, agitated, or angered, fleeing from these emotions and the general area.<br/><br/>Appearance:<img src=""https://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/cb/ee/0e/cbee0ebeb55f2e30b6bbd7de297be7e0.jpg""/><br/>Jackson around 5'10, with black hair and dark blue eyes. He usually wear some type of jacket, jeans, T-shirt, and sneakers, but if the school has a uniform then he won't have any objections to wearing it. His skin is slightly tanned, since he likes to spend a lot of time outside, and he sometimes dyes strands of his hair different colors when he feels the need to change things up a bit. He is somewhat good looking, but that is usually hidden by his hood if he has one. He has a strange set of scars, three perpendicular claw marks, that goes from his shoulder to his elbow on his right side. He hides it whenever he can, and when asked about he will immediately clam up and attempt to leave the area.<br/><br/>Tether: Jackson is naturally connected to the supernatural, having being subjected to hearing voices of spirits for as long as he can remember. Until a month ago, he hadn't thought much of it, but then an event happened that changed his perspective on it, and made him afraid off it.<br/><br/>Ability/Talents: Ability: Physical Soul Projection, this ability is a side effect of having Aphosis inside of him. It allows him to project Aphosis' soul outside of him to interact with the world in a way similar to telekinesis, but at a cost. While using this ability, Jackson increases the chance of Aphosis taking over his body, as it takes a rather sizable to use Aphosis' soul in this way. When using this ability, or possessed by Aphosis, his right eye will glow an eerie silver color(Think Black Rock Shooter)<br/><br/>Talents he has are being an experienced Outdoors man and survivalist, as he spent his past summers in the grand outdoors with his family and takes pride in his survivl skills. He is also very good with knives, and has a collection of them at his house and never leaves home without at least three on his person, once for the opprotunity to show off, now because he's afraid to leave the house with out at least something to protect him. <br/><br/>Recent history:<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""All my life, I've felt connected to the world of the unseen, of sprits and demons, of all the things we tell ourselves isn't true so that we can sleep at night without fear of what we don't understand. I had that luxury, cause I've heard them all my life, the spirits on the other side of our world. And I fear them, more than anything else. They left their mark on me long ago, and it burns me to this day.""</span></span><br/>    Jackson is, or rather was, an outgoing individual, easily able to make friends with others. He liked hanging out with friends, and while he wasn't the best student, he managed to get by in his studies for the most part. That changed about a month before his transfer to Armstrong. He had gone over to a friends house for a party, a small one just for his group of close friends. Late in the night, one of them pulled out a Ouija board, and everyone but Jackson cheered in delight. They all started messing with it, calling to spirits and asking ridiculous questions, while Jackson tried to decided whether or not he should just leave.<br/><br/>    One of his friends, seeing that Jackson wasn't joining in the fun, started to make fun of his apparent fear, calling him a scaredy cat. The rest of them joined in, trying to get him o join in. Jackson knew that what he was doing was a bad idea, but the peer pressure eventually made him cave in. He sat down at the table and put his hands on the Ouija board with everyone else, planning to ask a simple question than get the hell out of here. But then he got curious.<br/><br/>    He knew he had some connection to that world, hearing things that could never be explained, voices from the darkness of shadows, and the weird sensation he got in some places that were supposedly haunted. He figured that he might as well try and use it to get some answers. So he focused on the board and prepared to ask the spirits his question.<br/><br/>He never got the chance.<br/><br/>    Everything went black, and the sounds of screams filled the air, air rushing around him like he was in the center of a hurricane. It wasn't until something grabbed his arm and pulled him backwards away from the board, were he had been frozen in fear, that darkness vanished. By then it was already to late.<br/><br/>All of his friends were dead, some seeming as if they had been ripped apart by some wild animals, others as if they had the very  drained from them. He was left their alone, with a grim wound to remind him of this night for the rest of his life.<br/><br/>After a month of investigation, he was cleared of having anything to do with the murders due to lack of any evidence and was set free from holding by the police. His family moved to their new home, and him to a new school, trying to recover some semblance of normalcy. Jackson was very much changed by the experience. He became very reclusive, trying his best to avoid contact with others, began reading up on charms and other magic items that were said to ward of spirits and other such things. He jumps at every shadow he sees, and goes near ballistic in the dark, He has been reduced to nothing but a shell of the boy he used to be.<br/><br/>And that wasn't the end of it. Shortly after he arrived in Oakenheim, he began to have dreams, nightmares, and hallucinations. He felt sick a lot, and felt strange urges to hurt people, break things, and cause overall Chaos. The cause, a spirit known as Aphosis, had taken residence inside of him during that night, and was trying to possess him, by driving him insane. However, due to him being exposed to the supernatural all of his life, he's fairly resistant to Aphosis' power, and can even make use of the spirit to use his ability, though he rarely makes use of it due to the strain the ability has over him.</div>"
19956,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),CHAR,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-11 23:15:00,Constantine,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: John Maxwell
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>: Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Often stoic and thoughtful but by no means cold or apathetic, Maxwell is often misunderstood due to his slightly imposing presence, his stern expression and penetrating eyes making him seem unfriendly and permanently irritated. Far from cold and apathetic, Maxwell cares a great deal about his friends and family and would go to great lengths to keep them from harms way, it is simply that he lacks the ability to completely express that sentiment. Following his 'awakening' he has been left with an almost unquenchable sense of curiosity about the world that until recently had been so familiar. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Maxwell stands at 5ft11, has a toned but non muscular build and possesses a tanned complexion with forest green eyes and grey hair. The colour of his hair, an abnormal colour for a man of his age is the result of the manner in which his tether was originally forged. His body is free from any scarring, no small miracle considering his recent history and other then his near constant stern expression he possesses no true distinguishing physical features.

In terms of clothing he shows little variation on a day to day basis. On his upper body Maxwell wears a plain shirt, a loosely tied tie and a thick high collared hooded jacket that reaches down to just below his waist. On his lower body he wears a pair of simple cargo pants and brown laced boots. Only his hands and face remain uncovered by such form of material. Lately he has spent an unhealthy amount of time with a certain mask in his possession, though he has yet to be seen to actually wear it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether</span>: Maxwell is no natural and therefore the manifestation of his tether is no natural occurrence. Nor is it granted to him by some benevolent or symbiotic entity. His tether manifests as a result of a blending of spiritual energies, though whether such an effect was the intent is open to debate. What there can be doubt of was the acts necessity. The presence of his tether is denoted by a mark on his chest, a burned black hand print that only Maxwell seems to be able to perceive.

The event that precluded his 'awakening' was his own death. Or what should have been his death at any rate, the circumstances of which are sketchy to say the least. It began when an entity beyond human perception anchored itself to him, a spiritual being that feeds upon the spiritual energy inherent to all life. This immaterial entity, unable to sustain its own existence latches itself to another like a spiritual parasite. Such a haunting if left to progress invariably leads to death of the haunted individual, often culminating in an event designed to inflicted grief and suffering in its wake. 

The symptoms exhibited are constant in all cases with little variation, beginning with lethargy and emotional numbing as the haunted individual's essence is slowly suffused by the constant presence of their malign guest. Highly susceptible to suggestion these victims are easily manipulated and are often the victims of apparent suicides. Maxwell had climbed onto the railing of a bridge and without a moments hesitation had stepped into space. Maxwell remembers the act, but not the intention. Nor does he remember hitting the ground.

All he was left with was a feeling that something very important had been taken from him. And that that something had been returned, in a manner of speaking. When a Hollow, a being named for its victims rather than itself feeds it takes more then it needs. There had not been enough left of Maxwell to return what had been taken. So the Hollows essence had been blended with his own to make up the difference. Though as for the type of being that could accomplish such a feat that is another matter entirely.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether Origin</span> - <span class=""bb-i"">Hollow</span> (Will be a link to a codex entry later)

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability/Talents</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Ability</span> – Psychokinesis? - Maxwell has developed the ability to interact with the physical world to a small extent through the force of his will alone, though the force that he can exert is somewhat weak, no stronger than the force he could physically exert himself. With that said the ability to remotely extend his reach has had its uses despite its limited capacity. Maxwell himself is not completely convinced as to whether this 'ability' is indeed the phenomenon people refer to as psychokinesis and not something more...sinister. When he uses this ability it feels like something is looming over him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Observant</span> – Maxwell is an observant individual who notices details that many people overlook, though that is not to say that it makes these details known unless directly asked. 
<span class=""bb-i"">Strong Willed</span> – He is not sure if he was always this way but since his 'incident' he has had the strangest feeling that his psyche has been reinforced somehow. Maxwell has now has a stronger will than most normal people, allowing him to resist abilities and phenomenon that seek to subvert free will through subtle and aggressive means. This makes him resistant and not immune however.
<span class=""bb-i"">Pale Touch</span> – Not a talent per see but a phenomenon that has become apparent following his near death experience and the advent of his so called telekinesis. Maxwell has a sickening effect on plants when he stands too close to them, causing them to wilt up and even die. He gains nothing from this that he knows of and is quite disturbed by it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent History</span>: Originally from England, the Maxwell family has relocated several times during the last two decades, having spent time significant periods of time in England, Germany and France before eventually settling in Oakenheim, Maine. John's father Adrian Maxwell is an author of some renown, especially within the supernatural fiction genre. His step mother Alice Maxwell works are a teacher in one of the local Kindergartens. And until several months ago John was just a student with normal student problems. That was when the 'haunting' first began.

From the point of view of his friends and family John became increasingly distant and reclusive. And then without warning he climbed over the railing of a bridge and stepped over the edge. His rehabilitation over the following month had been something of an experience. He felt non the emotions that the doctors told him that he must have been felling, nor did he ever remember feeling them. He remembered stepped off the bridge, he couldn't deny the fact regardless, but as for the intention to do so he had no recollection of. Looking back it was as if he were viewing the memories of another person entirely rather than his own with a detached clarity that he had never experienced before. 

He has recently returned to his 'life' after being given a clean bill of health. His new found clarity forced to the surface questions that he had never even considered asking before. And a sense that all of this had happened before.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> While not quite a wallflower, Mary is generally a quiet and calm individual. The emotions she shows are resigned, her smiles are slight, and her frowns more just shrugs than anything. Over the years she has become the type of student that sits in the back of the class and listens to music, when she socializes, she tends to blend in to the group, only <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> talking to those that can keep her interested. Most of her personal relationships fail because of this. People who spend enough time around her say that, at times, she can seem a little 'off' or 'depressed,' in reality; Mary's building apathy toward life stems from her perceived lack of control over the events in her life.

With a sarcastic sense of humor and a penchant for listening to music over conversation. She might make seem standoffish to any passerby. Mary does seek companionship, just on her own terms. If one can't interest her, then she shrugs and cuts her losses; if they can, however, they'll receive a talkative friend, a stereotypical slacker, obsessed with obscure bands, drugs, flowers, and death. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Mary stands tall at 5'7'' with an average, if not slightly well rounded, figure. She has short black hair framing kind brown eyes and a light olive complexion. Her expressions tend to remain neutral, with her most powerful smile being a slight smirk. Her outfits tend to be basic and earth colored, either a dark tank-top or a T-shirt and skinny jeans or a skirt. She is rarely seen without her ear buds or headphones.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> Mary believes she is a 'natural,' having seen the weird inner-workings of the universe most people can't perceive for as long as she can remember. While in the regard that she was born with it, she isn't wrong, technically, Mary doesn't naturally have the ability. Mary's mother, Diana, was touched by a gestalt Wicca entity, the 'Mother Goddess' and her father, who left before she was born, was likewise touched by the Mother Goddess' equal and opposite entity, the 'Horned God.'

Mary's body serves as a battleground of sorts for these two spiritual entities, each invading her body, and influencing events in her life. The Mother Goddess and the Horned God, ironically, both influencing her life allows Mary to maintain sentience and autonomy of her own actions, but the conditions around her, within their control, are constantly shifting. Over the years this has turned Mary into a woman who feels content to just glide through life, unaware that while she does, two syncretic spiritual deities are vying for her soul.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> None. <span class=""bb-i"">(May develop later)</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-i"">Sketching:</span> Years spent drawing the flowers growing in the Oakenheim Cemetery have given Mary a talent for drawing quick, accurate sketches.</li><li><span class=""bb-i"">Knowledge of psychoactive botany and mycology:</span> Although not a professional botanist or mycologist, Mary has researched and has a working knowledge of the psychoactive flora of Oakenheim.</li><li><span class=""bb-i"">Artistic Echoic Memory:</span> As opposed to photographic memory, Mary, over the years, has developed a talent for remembering and replaying soundbytes in her head. While she only tends to use this for listening to music without her headphones, theoretically, she could use this type of memory to recall gossip and small bits of information heard.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> Diana Janicot settled into Oakenheim soon after Mary was born, figuring it would be the perfect small town for a single mother to raise a child. That child, of course, was Mary. She was never sad or particularly traumatized, it just seemed that for Mary, each year of her life dimmed her enthusiasm, but only slightly.

She always enjoyed music and nature's beauty, and as she grew older, these two things became constants in her life. While not in school the young girl would often find herself in the Oakenheim Cemetery, enjoying the quiet of the place, as well as it's flowers. As she grew the Oakenheim Cemetery would become her favorite place to hang out, it felt like the only place in the world she held some semblance of control. 

When she entered high school Mary began following local Oakenheim acts around as a groupie, often finding herself in relationships with women much older than her. This is also how she began her recreational drug use, in her own words, it; ""keeps those dreams away."" As opposed to finding a dealer, Mary began devoting her free time to studying psychoactive flora, her hobby has given her a few close brushes with the law.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> August is easily excited and gets caught up in the heat of the moment frequently. Passionate and always thinking at a breakneck pace, it's amazing she hasn't gone insane or gotten herself killed. A hopeless romantic with an overpowering logical streak, she's broken more than a few hearts in her life, both boys and girls. Her train of thought, sometimes, makes little to no sense when she's in one of her brainstorms. She's deathly afraid of drowning, and cannot swim. It is exceptionally hard for her to not tinker with something and try to modify, streamline, fix, or enhance it, often with disastrous results.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Despite standing at a minimal 5', August is hard to miss. She has wild, vibrant red hair reaching down to her hips, often braided or tied back in intricate designs meant to control it's inevitable frazzles, frizzles, and tangles, but still make it presentable. Sharp green eyes stare over thin circular glasses in silver frames, sitting atop a perky nose. Her lips seem to almost always be pouting, except when they're being bitten in concentration. Often wears simple sweaters with jeans and brightly colored shoes of some sort, her favorite having a nebula painted across the top, alongside a worn beanie with googly eyes sewn onto it, looking like some kind of blob monster eating the top of her head. Weighing in at around 105 lbs, her figure is incredibly modest, with no chest or behind to really speak of. Her voice tends to squeak and crack when it hits a certain volume, especially when frustrated or annoyed, or when she inevitably gets shocked by one of her quick-fixed electronics.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> A near death experience has made August not only more appreciative of life, but also brought her closer to the spirit world. Something came back with her from the other side, and though she doesn't fully understand it, she's desperate to learn all she can about it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Empathy - August can read emotions in a given area or object. The stronger the emotion at the time, the easier they are to read. Complex or convoluted emotions, or areas with many different emotions, are jumbled and wild, something akin to a kaleidoscope in her head where she can't settle on one before another shoves it's way in. Particularly powerful emotions, like trauma, can give her headaches and leave her dazed or confused. This <span class=""bb-b"">can't</span> be used to read emotions in living people.

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> 
Electronic Repairs - There are few electrical systems that can stay broken under August's fingers. Broken radios, flashlights, fuses, she can fix or at least temporarily jerry-rig almost anything that has wires and a current.
Hotwire - A part of her life she'd rather forget, though definitely a useful skill to have, if she can get into a car, she can make it drive, keys or not.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> August is a bit of an odd duck in Oakenheim. Shipped to the town suddenly to stay with her brother due to ""legal issues"", the girl has made a name for herself by ""fixing"" things that were never broken. Locations the locals actively avoid she seeks out with great zeal, mostly for disappointing results, but occasionally it pays off. She's often seen at night riding her bike to some new location or off into the woods. The local sheriff makes it a habit of picking her up on sight during these runs, since her brother almost never knows about them, and they often end with the power in the town going out from her tinkering.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>  17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Playful, Sociable, Sweet, Protective, Childish, Manipulative, Abrasive, &amp; Venomous.</span>

Raven is quite the contradiction appearing as one thing but acting as another. One would think the doe eyed girl holds a secret agenda though she’ll quickly put that notion to rest if asked. Like a chameleon Raven uses empathy to her advantage to quickly relate to strangers or acquaintances, and build relationships. Able to mesh well with almost any crowd she need not worry about being singled out, which is a great advantage especially given one of her talents.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Layers of long wavy hair is neatly brushed up into two shiny ponytails with a portion dyed snow white on the right side. Side swept bangs cannot conceal an ever present mischievous glint in alluringly large greyish eyes. Whether that characteristic is unnerving or captivating lay only with the beholder.  Raven is a slender little thing reaching a height of five foot four, give or take. Adorable would be the first word to describe the alabaster Lolita as she resembles a porcelain doll with fake eye lashes, flawlessly pale skin, and a radiant smile--albeit a ravishing adult version of a child's toy. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> A medium and communicated with spirits all through her years. She was very susceptible to trickery and unfortunately fell to a scheme. Was manipulated and invited a malevolent spirit to share her body. Something happened during possession and they fused together unable to depart. She is able to share this entities emotions, thoughts, and abilities. Sometimes she cannot control what it decides to do or try to do but she was able to learn to counteract its hateful sway at times. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Pain_Manipulation"">Pain manipulation</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span>
1. <span class=""bb-i"">You’re getting sleepy:</span> 
One thing her <span class=""bb-s"">fake</span> psychic mother taught her well was how to bullshit out of any situation. She is highly persuasive and a decent liar. 

2. <span class=""bb-i"">Ooo, piece of candy:</span> 
A bit of a klepto Raven often swipes anything and everything that catches her eye. Like a perfectly timed dance Raven has become so good at theft that hardly anyone notices. Her movements so natural or swift that witnesses doubt what they saw or never saw her at all.  

3. <span class=""bb-i"">Hipbone connected to the…:</span> 
Raven has always wanted to become a nurse and began studying Anatomy at a fairly young age. Especially with her ""curse"" she can better understand ways to help aid those in pain--or make it worse.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> ‘Does not play well with others’, ‘too many imaginary friends’, and ‘pathological liar’ among other observations or titles were given to the peculiar little girl. Therapists often accused her run-away mother as they are often to blame when the child shows any sign of unwarranted uniqueness. This situation made especially vulgar as Raven’s mother was a well-known psychic though years later everyone discovered the truth, and the Bonnay's became a laughing stock. Madam Celestine was in fact a fake and had been smuggling people’s hard earned money for ages. Before police could arrest her for fraud and theft she ditched her husband and ten year old daughter, remorseless. 
  
With learning that the family had no ties to the supernatural it was always a wonder how Raven managed to “contract” mediumship. A curse perhaps but something sinister soon sunk its fangs into her impressionable mind. Learning that her behavior and gifts were unacceptable Raven was instructed by her father to hide them best she could. Beckoning voices are difficult to ignore however, and their pleas were heart wrenching especially to a young girl who only wanted to help those in need. Misery loves company and some spirits are quite deceiving, and one fateful day changed everything. Soon after Raven could no longer ignore what she had become...</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Piper Harrison

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Piper comes off as a relaxed, laidback girl who gets along with everyone, but in reality she is simply fake. Piper is a lost girl who has no idea where she is going, who she is, and where she fits in the world. She is constantly overcome with a depression over her seemingly useless existence. Insecure, she does not think she is worth anybody’s time and throws herself around, letting herself be used by anyone just for a moment of attention. She has had many bad relationships where she has been abused, used, and thrown away; maybe her insecurity was a consequence or the cause. After a bad near-death experience where her sister died, she realized how fragile human life is and how un-worth it is and she now has a careless attitude regarding her own life. Piper is an overall honest person and is horrible at lying; she believes that the truth is the best course of action.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>Piper is around 5’6” and is extremely pale. She is not super skinny nor is she overweight, simply average. Her natural hair color is brown, but she dyes it a vibrant red. Her eyes a light blue and her lips are naturally pink. Her nose is her least attractive feature, resembling the beak of beak of a bird.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> After dying for six seconds and bonding with her sister’s spirit, she can now see the supernatural and is able to communicate with her sister’s ghost.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Piper is able to tell if someone is lying because she gets a tingly feeling in her gut when someone lies to her.
Talents: Piper has sharp senses other than her eyes: she can instantly know what a material is if she touches it, know what a smell is if it is strong enough, and can instantly know a food when she eats it. This only works if she has experience the smell/material/food before. She also has a talent for the violin

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> A few months ago, Piper and her older sister, Bo, were driving when they were hit by a drunk driver. Bo died, leaving the family heartbroken. Piper was close to death and her heart stopped for six seconds. In those six seconds, Piper communicated with Bo’s spirit and they formed a spiritual bond. Bo did not want to move on and clamped onto Piper’s spirit, officially haunting her.

After Piper’s heart started beating again, she went into a coma for three weeks. When she awoke and learned of Bo’s death, she figured out that everything she thought she dreamed while in a coma was real and she continues to see Bo to this day.</div>"

Gender: Female
Age: 18

Personality: Kanoa is a bit of an oddity to most people. At first glance she seems to have a captivating charisma about her, or at the very least an unusual allure. She often appears to be daydreaming, or looking off towards something that one could swear is just a potted plant. Actually speaking to her, it quickly becomes apparent that she might just simply be eccentric. While she is intelligent and not the least bit naive, she has no regard for social norms and common behavior, often doing things however she pleases. She acts almost as if she is an alien, raised on another world with much different cultural practices. 

Much of her odd behavior stems from what her doctor considers ""The most extreme case of synesthesia he's ever seen."" Simply put, Kanoa's perception of things is not the same as others. Hearing a sound makes her see a color, seeing certain shapes and numbers places notions in her head that logically shouldn't be there. These sensations are the tip of the iceberg, as she seems to experience the world as a whole in a different way.

Kanoa has an awfully frank and carefree attitude, she is not afraid to speak her mind and express herself, no matter the consequences. She remains unperturbed by most things, and has a general disdain for arguments and conflict. She is more than willing to let most things go, and allow people to keep their opinion to themselves. However, Kanoa has a curious mind, and often likes to engage people intellectually. She will bring up topics pertinent and seemingly pointless alike, anything to have a conversation that keeps her interested. She believes herself to be a fairly down to earth person, yet she often has trouble with her sense of self. Questions of existentialism arise in her mind, and as she cannot easily relate to the reality others see, it is an ever uphill battle for her to try and understand herself and how she fits into the world.

In spite of her tendency to prefer things be copacetic and the lazy smile that is almost always on her face, like any person there are clear issues that either irritate her or force her to action. She likes to solve things with a pragmatic mindset, so for someone to either be blinded by passion or selfishness is akin to a sin to her. 

Appearance: Kanoa stands at a height of five feet ten inches tall. She has light golden brown hair that falls down to the middle of her back in wild waves. She has striking violet eyes that showcase her nonchalant personality by almost always being lowered in a relaxed manner. She has a tan skin tone resembling coffee with a heavy amount of cream added to it, she has barely noticeable freckles on her face that she tends to become flustered over when mentioned. 

She has a fit body, though it would be a stretch to say she is toned. Due to a healthy diet and occasional exercise she has a reasonable level of stamina and strength. She has long legs, and a slightly above average bust. As for clothing, she has a bit of an odd taste. She loves to wear school uniforms, even though not a single school within miles has such a dress code. She has an assortment of styles from fictional to replicas of real school's uniforms. When asked why she chooses to wear them, she says they simply ""Have a nice vibe.""

Tether: Kanoa was born into a family of spiritually sensitive Naturals that have origins in ancient Japan, though her mother is Hawaiian. The traditions of the family were hardly carried on, but much of it's knowledge was.  

Ability: Qualia - Officially, Kanoa has ""some form of synesthesia,"" but what she really has is a never before seen condition in her family. Her perception of reality is in fact twisted, but not in a way that science could easily explain. For Kanoa, the things that she sees are her own concrete reality, regardless of however someone else may see it. For the most part, this has no noticeable impact on the world as others see it, however, there are rare cases where Kanoa can alter the default world simply by interacting with something or someone that is different to her.  

Talents: Kanoa enjoys painting, though anything she creates is considered highly abstract to anyone that looks at it, the same goes for her music.... and somehow her poems as well.

Kanoa possess a vast encyclopedia like knowledge of the supernatural thanks to her family lineage. Her mother passed down family secrets, as well as various texts that she painstakingly memorized.

Along with knowledge of the supernatural, Kanoa knows many rituals and spells, that while often time consuming to preform can help in a great many situations.  

Recent history: Kanoa has recently started a 'club of the occult' at Oakenheim High, stating to staff that it is just an innocent club for fans of the supernatural. This is a front however, as Kanoa has decided to use the school as a grounds to gather recruits. She is able to see those that possess a Tether, and she intends to gain their aid in helping her home become a safe place once more.</div>"

Gender: Male
Age: 17

Personality: Cool is probably the best word to describe Ellis. No necessarily in the positive social adjective, though it often translates to peoples' opinion. Regardless of how others take it, however, Ellis is always cool. He seems to act with ease regardless of circumstance, always centered, always certain. Even in his most passionate moments, Ellis projects a sense of unerring poise and commitment. Of course, this does not always translate to his internal disposition and humor. In fact, Ellis takes considerable and increasing pains to project the image that he is painless, while the vagaries of the Conveyance eat away at his sense of reality and self and cast him adrift into what he is growing to fear might be most accurately be described as insanity.

Appearance: Ellis is a typical youth in many respects, preoccupied with his own sense of style while still conforming to the predilections of a particular subculture, in his case, Ellis exemplifies the archetype of the black, nerdy, hipster, with hand me down jeans, ironic t-shirts, and an aloof sensibility. Here is him trying to look cool.
<img src=""https://worldofblackheroes.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/alexwilder1.jpg""/>

Tether: Ellis’ mind is impregnated with a fragment of the Conveyance, the, or at least a, language of creation. The single note of phoneme has opened his understanding to truths beyond the mundane banality of reality, enabling him to perceive the supernatural with clarity in spite of his lack of natural talent. It also causes him unpleasant headaches.

Ability: Ellis’ connection with the Conveyance has allowed, or perhaps more accurately, forced him to perceive the underlying language of reality, able to see the interconnected code of existence. Consequently, Ellis is privy to information about the world around him that he otherwise could not, or should not be able to know, both mundane and supernal.

Unfortunately, the ability to perceive this information, which slithers into his mind unbidden, presented as notions of symbols alien to all human language, strange colors that cannot be seen by the human eye, and other more esoteric media still, is almost impossible for Ellis’ to translate into any meaningful way. He may know that the old grocer at the locale supermarket puts him in the mind of a strange, vaguely goose shaped symbol and a shade of red that seems more emblematic of blood than the color of blood in the real world, but Ellis has no idea what any of it means. Ellis has begun to understand some of the eldritch information that bombards him, some repetition of forms that he has come to denote the concept of feelings of anger, the strange keening tones that seem to emanate from locked doors and windows, but practical use of most of this information eludes him.

Furthermore, the information presented to Ellis is distracting, his performance in school, on the practice field, and other areas has dropped as he tries to cope with the unbidden knowledge bombarding him at all time. If anything this interference is becoming more difficult for Ellis to cope with, a prospect that frightens him deeply.

Talents: In spite of his nerdy mein, Ellis is remarkably athletic. He enjoys skateboarding and soccer in particular, as well as his more extraordinary extracurriculars, and benefits from a certain degree of natural talent, all of which adds up to a degree of speed, strength, and stamina that exceeds the average lackadaisical teenager.

Ellis is well read, he enjoys his studies and has a deep fascination for the world around him. This plurality of interest, however, does not lend itself to intense focus upon a singular subject giving Ellis a broad, but sometimes shallow knowledge base. The only thing that Ellis is very well versed in is the occult legends, urban myths, and supernatural folklore of the mortal world. How accurate any of this information is, however, is suspect when presented to one privy to true supernatural perspectives.

Ellis has a very nice voice, an agreeable enough personality, and an inoffensive appearance. Ellis has found that most people seem to like him and trust what he has to say, willing to listen to him and take his side on a multitude of issues more often than he, frankly, thinks that they rightly should. Ellis is a terrible liar. Also he can play the double bass, cornet, and sing rather well.

Recent history: Ellis has always been a pretty normal kid, painfully so, in his opinion. His parents were always decent and divorced. His life was filled with the normal, subjectively spectacular experiences of most children. He never wanted for much nor was given any great advantage or luxury. The only thing about Ellis that was really atypical was his dissatisfaction with how typical his life seemed. Since as long as he could remember, Ellis has been fascinated with stories of the strange and the occult. Not particularly stories of fantasy, but rather, those tales, often dark, of where the supernatural ran abreast of mundane reality. Ghost stories, surrealist literature, paranormal conspiracies all fascinated a young Orion Ellis and that obsession continued long into the approach towards adulthood. His mother thought he would grow into a troubled teenager, painting his fingernails black, listening to angry music she didn’t understand, but he never did. His father worried that he might become a social outcast and unable to relate to his peers, but Ellis always got along alright. It wasn’t a fashion of lifestyle that Ellis was interested in, it was the purity of the ideas.

Ellis’ great grandfather always encouraged his interests, always finding some obscure tome of early american mythology, unpublished manuscript compilations of H.P. Lovecraft, curious little trinkets attached to some odd little traditions of Maine superstition, which he would give to Ellis when the family would annually visit. Ellis always loved visiting his grandfather. The old man was himself like the gifts he gave, old, mysterious, and just close enough to the uncanny that Ellis always had the sinking suspicion that the venerable ancient knew more than he would ever reveal. Almost a year ago, however, Ellis’ grandfather died unexpectedly, Ellis was heartbroken. Family came from all over North America for the funeral. Most came out of simple affection and familial obligation, though it didn’t hurt that Ellis’ grandfather was quite wealthy. This too was surprising, for as far as Ellis had ever known, the old man had lived alone in a small cabin in the northern reaches of Maine, almost anachronistic in it’s ausere and frugal accoutrements. But apparently the man owned a great deal of property, including vast stretches of the Maine wilderness. As the family worked out the will and details of dividing up the man’s possessions, Ellis found himself bequeathed a portion of the man’s property equal to that given to the other great grandchildren, but also a small package set aside shortly before the old man’s demise.

Ellis doesn’t remember much after that. He had opened the small, brown paper package in the bathroom of the hotel the family was staying at, while his parents socialized with the rest of the relations in the reception room rented for the wake. The package had been small, squarish, almost like a book, but it was heavier than a book, and he remembered thinking that he felt like more than one object, bound together tightly by the paper and the thin string it was tied together with. He had opened the package and then Ellis still cannot remember what happened after that. The large gathering of distant relations dispersed, Ellis and his parents drove home, they didn’t talk much. Ellis didn’t have the package anymore, or whatever was inside of it. He could not remember what had happened to the package. His parents never asked. He didn’t know what had been in the package. He felt like he didn’t know much of anything anymore. 
Three days after opening the package, the headaches started. Four days after that he started to see and hear and smell and taste and feel the Conveyance. It started slow at first, little flickers at the corners of his eyes, sub voce sounds he could only hear when he plugged his ears and concentrated, subtle flavors that made him wish unconsciously for a mint. But the sensations have grown in magnitude over the last several months. He went to a doctor for the headaches, the doctor posited a dietary imbalance. Ellis did not mention the other sensations. He hasn’t told anyone about them. He hoped they would go away. They have not. They have grown stronger. Ellis world is no longer mundane. He’s starting to wish it still was.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> People who see Morgan tend to think of him as an unfriendly guy, mainly due to his constant facial expression. He’s always serious, rarely cracking jokes unless the rare mood arises. Smiling is something he rarely will do; however, there have been times where he shows genuine affection. He will point out mistakes that others make, causing others to believe that he enjoys putting others down. The reason he actually does so is to help others learn from their mistakes, and improve themselves as a person. Of course, Morgan is also open to such reception, mainly relying on Ennis to point out his flaws and failures to help him grow as an individual. Morgan deeply cares for family and friends, and those he has known for a while he considers an extension of his actual family, checking up on these people periodically to see how they fare. 

When it comes to the supernatural, Morgan is well versed. His deep curiosity led him to study about it at a young age, along with the fact that his family is very involved with the supernatural. Any ghost story he was told as a kid he listened to with earnest, and any book he could get his hands on about legends and myths he would read fervently. His father would tell him about his supernatural occurrences, leaving Morgan to proclaim that he wanted to be just like dad someday. While he never had any first-hand experience in dealing with ghosts and demons, Morgan excitedly looked forward to the day that he can investigate the paranormal. Once he was informed by his father of what would be going on, he uncharacteristically exploded with excitement, something that those present, Ennis included, will attest to. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Morgan stands at 5’10. His light blonde hair is shoulder length. He leaves the front of his bangs trimmed neatly, so they do not obstruct his view. His dark blue eyes are always positioned in a way that show his seriousness, and give off the vibe that he isn’t someone you’d want to anger. His skin tone and complexion are both fair, and he has no signs of any blemishes or scars upon his body. On his left helix lays a simple, silver cuff earring. 

His body is toned and muscular, due to his workout regimen and training in his family’s martial arts for many years. The clothes he normally wears consist of a button-down shirt of any color, with the sleeves rolled up past his elbows. To compliment the shirt, he wears a black tie. For pants, Morgan wears black slacks with the legs rolled up to his mid-calf. A pair of comfortable black and white sneakers is worn on his feet. On his left wrist, he wears a black analog watch. 
Tether: Morgan is considered a natural born, as he is able to perceive the supernatural world without having to use objects infused with supernatural energy, or other means. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Morgan’s ability is electro kinesis; the manipulation of electricity. The extent of his power allows him to drain electricity from objects, and charge up electrical devices, if they require it. He can also discharge electricity to anything that he comes into direct contact with. He can control the voltage; however, it can only be as strong as a taser. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> Morgan is very well trained in his family’s style of martial arts. He would not call himself a master, as he continues to train when he is able to. His level of skill is below that of Ennis’s, something he freely admits. The two cousins spar quite often, with Morgan seldom being able to best Ennis. Martial arts are mainly taught to the family members because it is believed that it can teach one great discipline, and to be able to defend one’s self in case danger arises. 

He contains a vast knowledge of the paranormal world, due to his fervent study of the subject. His apartment contains many volumes on ghosts, demons, and various rites used to send these types of spirits to the afterlife. To this day, he continues to get his hands on any books that he has not yet read on the matter. 

As it is just he and Ennis living together, Morgan cooks for the two, and his chef skills are quite excellent. He learned from a young age how to cook from the various chefs his family hired, and his mother, who was a gifted cook as well. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> Due to the Bowers being involved heavily in the supernatural world, they decided to send someone to investigate the supernatural occurrences at Oakenheim. Morgan was selected by his father, the current head of the family, to be the one to investigate, along with his cousin, Ennis. It had been a week since they arrived in Oakenheim. 

-----------

Name: Ennis Bowers

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Personality: Ennis is described as a gentle and caring person. In some aspects, she is the exact opposite of her cousin. Where Morgan is quick to point out peoples mistakes, Ennis offers kind words, and encouragement. While she does know that Morgan is attempting to look out for others in his own way, she is well aware that that form of treatment is not for everyone. She is well liked by her peers, and is quick to make friends. She is normally seen with her cousin, which many view as an antagonistic person. Due to that, most tend to steer clear of her while she is with him. This does not bother her in the slightest, and she is quite used to the way how people view Morgan.

She deeply cares for family and friends, going as far as showing motherly affection towards others. She especially cares for Morgan, who she has been with since they were children. Ennis tends to mother him the most, and nag him about trivial things. While this mainly due to the fact that she deeply cherishes him, she also does it just to get a reaction out of him, due his dislike of her constant mothering. Despite the fact that it seems like Morgan relies on her a lot, she relies on him just as much, and the two share an unbreakable bond. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> She stands a little over 5’8, with fair skin and a great complexion. Her blonde hair stretches down to her plump rear. Ennis tends to straighten her hair every morning, and it is something she takes great pride in. On days where she is feeling lazy, or is lounging around at home, she’ll simply put her hair in a messy bun. Her gentle looking eyes are a light blue color. Others have told her that her natural beauty doesn’t call for her to wear make-up, but she occasionally enjoys wearing lipstick and a bit of eyeliner. Thinking contacts are an absolute bother; Ennis wears a pair of black half-frame glasses. 

Her body is toned, and shows muscle in all of the right places. She is described is having great curves, with a modest bust size to go along with it. Ennis takes great pride in her body, and goes through great lengths to maintain its appearance. As for her attire, she wears a three button blouse, with a ribbon tied around the collar. Her blouse is neatly tucked in her skirt, which reaches down to just above her knees. She wears a thin red sweater at almost all times. Black stockings adorn her legs, and she wears a pair of black leather shoes almost all the time. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> Ennis is a natural born, being able to perceive the paranormal without the assistance of an entity, or an item infused with supernatural energy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Ennis’s ability is retro-cognition; the ability to perceive past events. By simply walking into a room and focusing her energy, she is able to see what happened in the past. Ennis can project these images to those around her, allowing others to view what she sees. This power also works on humans, but only if the participant allows Ennis to reach out to their very soul. By using her ability on a person, she is able to view their past, and can even view memories that others have forgotten. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> Ennis, like her cousin Morgan, is trained in the Bowers family martial arts. Her level of skill is greater than that of Morgan’s. She constantly challenges Morgan to a sparring match, knowing that she will win a majority of the time just so she can smack him around. Martial arts are mainly taught to the family members because it is believed that it can teach one great discipline, and to be able to defend one’s self in case danger arises. 

Ennis is quite handy with technology. Her knowledge of computers is great, as she is able to repair them with ease, and use various functions on them. She is even adept at being able to repair cell phones, and can jailbreak, which is a term for modifying an operating system on a smart phone; with relative ease. Something she also enjoys is tinkering with her desktop and laptop to various degrees. 

Much like everyone in the Bowers family, Ennis is well educated in the supernatural. While it intrigues her, her interest in the subject is not as great as her cousin. Her studies were not as extensive as Morgan’s, and she really only knows of the basics off-hand. She knows about the basic rites used to send off spirits and demons. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent History:</span> Ennis was chosen, along with Morgan, to investigate the occurrences in Oakenheim. She was more than happy to accompany Morgan along, but she remains slightly peeved that she had to transfer out of her school, and leave her friends behind for the time being.</div>"

When he has found himself in a conversation his bluntness and dry sense of humor can be polarizing. Pairing this with his tendency to ramble and spouting of strange factoids one wonders how it is he isn't ostracized by the student body. Perhaps it's his staunch work ethic. While he is usually jovial to some extent he has no sympathy for those who wallow in their own misery instead of pressing forward.   <br/>Appearance: <img src=""http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/052/1/b/dick_grayson_civvies_2_by_deandraws-d3a2tyr.png""/><br/> Standing at 6'3'' with black hair and pale blue eyes Danny tends to wear long sleeved shirts with the sleeves rolled up paired with v-necks and (patched) jeans with a comfortable pair of steel-toed work boots. He also has small scar over his right eyebrow.<br/><br/> Tether: While Danny was born at 3:00 A.M. on Halloween any abnormalities didn't form until he was seven when Daniel and his mother were T-boned by a drunk driver that resulted in her death. <br/> <br/> Ability:Probability Manipulation. Even after his tethering, Danny wasn't aware of his supernatural abilities chocking up things like being able to start a fire with damp wood or things breaking when he was frustrated as luck or coincidence. In a way he wasn't wrong. The more his emotions flare the more noticeable this ability becomes with bad moods hampering the environment or people around him (including himself) or benefiting it, while any control depends on how focused Danny is, usually only allowing him to do things that amount to mediocre party tricks.<br/><br/>Talents:<br/>Criminology-Daniel's father has passed on much of the information that he has learned in his career as a detective and sheriff making sure Danny pays attention to detail, and not to make evidence match his theory.<br/><br/>Krav Maga: Before Danny had gained his growth spurt he had to learn how to defend himself. So he trained in a form that would make sure that no bully would come after him again<br/><br/>Parkour!: Retzev in its purest form, the acrobatics that Danny has learned first came from in the form of his attempts to flee the trouble he'd cause when he first arrived in Oakenheim but has been reformed and streamlined into efficient movement which helped him earn a place on the school's track&amp;field team. <br/> <br/>Recent history: It's hard to make friends when your dad is the sheriff. It's harder still when your dead mom's sister runs a new age bookstore that hands out free copies of The Communist Manifesto. It's harder still when you work as a barista at said bookstore. After the death of Daniel's mother, he and his father moved to his father's hometown of Oakenheim and soon went from big city detective to small town sheriff. While Daniel has had a tough time of things with a caring dad and a bizarre aunt, Danny has learned to deal with the pain. Recently he's been getting restless and wanting to leave this boring old town to someplace more interesting. However he may soon regret his wishes for more action in his life...</div>"
19965,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-17 03:12:00,Piercing Light,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">It was the end of the school day in Oakenheim High, Kanoa Marigold knew this because the bell had rang. She hated this school's bell, it was loud, electronic, and gave her a bad taste in her mouth like copper coins. Her mouth wriggled like a snake on a hot plate as she tried to get the sensation off of her tongue. Her fellow classmates had already sprouted from their seats like Jack in the Boxes, she knew it was Friday and all, but Kanoa didn't see the need to rush anywhere. Last time she checked the mall and other teenage hangouts weren't going anywhere. ""Hmm."" Kanoa reached for her phone and did a quick search on the web. ""Yep, not going anywhere...""

The classroom emptied out, and only when she was the only one left did she exit herself. She really hated lines, the person behind and in front of you always expected so much from you. Step too slowly and they'd stomp on your heel, step too quickly and you'd bump into someone's poor unsuspecting back. She slung her bag over her shoulder and walked through the halls. Students were storming through the school like they always did, though she had to be thankful this town's population wasn't very large. Dense crowds tended to overload her senses, to the point she almost felt as if she were wading through a pool of assorted paints. Reds, blues, yellows, browns and purples, people's unique voices poured into her relentlessly. She let out a lazy sigh, and continued on her way. 

At the back of the school there was an empty classroom, there was a problem with the circuitry that caused the lights to burst whenever someone tried to change them, because of this the room was eerily dimmer than most others. Light seeped through a boarded window's gaps like an aperture, allowing just enough light inside the room to be serviceable, at least for her needs.

A boy was standing in front of the room's entrance tossing a key up and down in his hand. He saw Kanoa and turned towards her. ""You know, just because you're the student council president doesn't mean you can order me around."" He said, tossing the small object to her. She caught it, and gave it a quick glance before slipping it in her pocket.

""Good work, I trust you sent the invitations as well, vice-president?"" She asked. The boy groaned and ran a hand through his blond hair, not too enthused that his complaint was ignored.

""Yeah yeah, I'm going now, I've got a date, enjoy your freaky club."" He said, turning to leave, but Kanoa hugged him from behind. 

""Oh~? A date with who, vice-president?"" 

""None of your business Kanoa, and stop calling me that, I have a name ya know!?"" He struggled to shake her off, but her grip was surprisingly strong. She ignored his complaints once more, choosing instead to sniff his hair. 

""Is that cologne? you must really like this girl, you never wear that stuff."" She took another whiff of the aroma. ""Blueberry muffins?"" She said, finally letting him go.

""That's not even close to what it's supposed to be, honestly, you need to get your head checked out!"" He ranted, hurrying off before she decided to grab him again. 

Kanoa shrugged her shoulders and walked into the room, it was a little dusty, but she could easily fix that with a little elbow grease. She took a seat on a desk in the back of the room, which happened to be the brightest part of the room. Officially, she had taken this room for her 'club of the occult,' however, she had another purpose in mind. The invitations she had sent out were vague, yet clear to those that they were intended for. The invitations simply said. 

<span class=""bb-i"">To those that are aware of the unseen and unexplained, you are not alone. Strange things have been happening in this town, and while many refuse to accept this, or are unable to, we have the opportunity to do something about it. If you wish to know more, then please meet me in room 12C. I will understand if you ignore this message.</span></div>"
19966,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-17 09:08:00,Raijinslayer,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Jackson was walking in down the halls of the school, wearing a plain black shirt, some dark blue jeans, and a hooded jacket with the hood pulled up over his face, wondering if he should be doing this. 'Messing with this stuff is what ruined my life in the first place, why am I risking it happening again by joining this stupid club.' He grumbled in his head, already knowimg why he was doing this. He needed this chance to be able to talk about his experience, hopefully helping him move on from what happened. And maybe, a way to get rid of <span class=""bb-i"">him</span>.

<font color=""#9e0039""><span class=""bb-i"">Ahhhh, don't you like my company, Jacky-boy, I assure you I have your best interest at heart. Just let me in to your soul, into your mind, and give me control.</span></font>

Aphosis' words slithered through his mind like snakes, but Jackson shook off the spirit's words, not letting it get to him. That would only make the situation worse, of that he was sure. 

Jackson soon found himself in front of the club doors and, after standing their for a good ten minutes readying himself, opened the door. He immediately noticed he was the first one to arrive. Fuck.

""Um, he-hello, my name is Jackson Ducarthym pleasure to make your aquaintence."" Jackson mumbled, walking over to a seat in a darker section of the room. He pulled his hoid down over his face, only a few strips of his raven hair sticking out from underneath, the rest was of his features being hidden. Jackson hoped someone else would show soon,he wasn't good at starting conversation.</div>"
19967,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-17 11:04:00,Spawnling,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Ow. Ow! OW STOP THAT!""

August gave the old computer a punch, immediately yelping as her knuckles cracked across the metallic surface. Mr. Grant, leaning on the nearby counter, gave a sigh.

""Please don't punch school property Miss Battaglia.""
""Well it won't stop shocking me! Seriously, how old is this thing, it's shorting out every time I touch it!""
""Most electronics do that because <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> touch them as I recall. Are you saying you can't fix it?""
""I fixed it ten minutes ago, I'm enhancing it now.""

August found her screwdriver yanked from her hand sharply.

""That's quite enough! No tinkering, thank you for your help!""
""Oh come on, I bet I could make this thing scream! Maybe even literally.""

The red head slid out from under the desk, brushing herself off vigorously as she adjusted her glasses. Her braid had been tied up in a large spiraling loop while she had been on the ground, to avoid dust getting into the huge mass of fiery locks. She gave a pout, which considering her features, was QUITE pronounced and pathetic looking.

""You're working with obsolete equipment!""
""It's what the school provides, thank you for fixing it, that'll be enough for me.""

August gave a huff, but didn't fight too hard. For starters, her fingers were feeling tingly from the repeated shocks the obstinate little machine had given her. Secondly, Mr. Grant controlled her grades and lacked a sense of humor. Thirdly, she had a place to be. The letter sitting in her backpack had piqued her interest far too much to not follow up on. Untying her hair so the braid fell against her backside with a suprisingly heavy thump, she grabbed her bag and headed out of the room, waving to her teacher as she navigated the river that was Oakenheim High. She was at a distinct advantage and disadvantage with her size...she could squeeze through fairly easily, but people also tended to not notice her until they had run into her. Despite her bright red hair, the vibrant cream colored sweater, and cherry red sneakers, she barely came up to chest height for most of the students. Her head was already full of different concepts and ideas for her next experiment as she made a beeline towards room 12C. August knew the room well, the lights were janked, and most people believe it had been her that did it. It hadn't, but still, her reputation preceded her. She arrived in time to hear a boy talking, but didn't catch anything he said. Straightening her glasses, flipping her braid over her shoulder, and giving a smile, she walked in, then halted as she saw only two people. Immediately her train of thought derailed in it's usual manner as she scanned the pair, her smile replaced with a quirked grin that she always wore when thinking too fast, one eyebrow cocked low.

""What, this is it? Oh wait, I'm early? Well, early-ish, if you two beat me. Unless one of you sent the letter. Okay, I'm early. Man I fixed the computer faster than I thought...totally could have done more...I'm August, by the way. I'm in the right room, right?""

She leaned backwards out the door, grabbing the side as she looked at the number from a near horizontal orientation. Yup, right room. She whipped back in, heading over to a desk between the boy and the girl. Classrooms always had odd emotions. Pride, depression, nervousness, a whooooole lot of lust, joy, anger. This class had some lingering tastes that kept popping up. Very faded though, diluted, and she had gotten used to the kaleidoscope of emotions that came from hormonal teenagers. Hell, she was feeling them still, so they weren't exactly new. She sat cross legged on top of the desk, grinning at the pair as she waited for one of them to respond to her greeting.</div>"
19968,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-17 17:01:00,Tenish the Mighty,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">A sour, yellow note. There it was again. Ellis' eyes narrowed at the back of Sarah Langtree's lilac blouse. Why did she make that sound? Was she making that sound? Ellis rubbed his forehead anxiously. He wished it would stop. Narrow gaze shifting he tried to ignore the sound, turning his focus on the front of the room. What period was it? History? No. Jesus. It was physics. He liked physics. He hadn't heard a word the teacher had said all period. The homework he'd handed in was a mess of figures. He was certain he'd failed it. Ellis had never failed at anything. He tried to make out the equation on the board. It was hazy. Ellis adjusted his glasses. No, it wasn't his eyes. The whole room was hazy, there was a fog, almost the same color as Sarah's shirt that filled the room. No one else seemed to notice it. Ellis wanted to hold his breath, he didn't want to breath whatever it was in. He wanted out of the room. 

The ringing bell almost made him jump out of his skin. No one noticed. No one ever noticed. Ellis was good at keeping a lid on his nerves. He didn't flinch, he didn't twitch. He got up easily from his desk, packed his bag and slung it over his shoulder, and sauntered, not walked out of the room. He didn't take a breath until he was in the hall. The air still smelled. It left a taste in his mouth. Like emulsified molasses. Ellis breathed. He tried to ignore the symbols in the shadows, the ones that looked like they might cut his eye if he looked at them too hard. He could feel the note throb in the bag on his back. It had beat like a heart, pulsing in his hand the moment he'd picked it up. It hadn't stopped since. A club for the occult, huh? Months ago the thought would have amused and delighted. Now it just unnerved him. Ellis could feel the world unravel. No, not unravel. It wasn't coming apart. That would imply that it was seamless before. No. Now he could just see it for what it was. He looked at the tiles under his feet. He used to try and walk only on one color. A small game as he walked from class to class. Now he tried to walk on different colors. There were colors no one else could see, and they filled the yawning gaps that he knew existed between the tiles. The world was like a wire net, thin, stretched, so fragile above the maelstrom over which they were all suspended. Ellis wished he didn't have to know that.

Before and long after he had known it, Ellis found himself in front of 12c. He wished he could truly ask himself why he'd come. He couldn't. Ellis knew precisely why he was here. Ellis touched a hand to the doorknob. It felt like wet satin. He breathed. He opened the door.

Colorful bunch. His first thought. He recognized faces. Marigold. New council prez. Not much competition around here. He didn't know much about her. She like to paint. Probably a little nuts. Nice curves. Little orange moth-shapes beat around her, throbbing like the letter she must have sent.

August. Batty. Knew her a little better. Tended to make a bit of a spectacle of herself. Wizard with what she did. Certainly a little nuts. Cute, in a mousy kind of way. There was a keening to her, like the last octave going out on an old amp.

The only other male in the room looked like he was trying to hide. Ellis didn't know him very well. Jackson something. New kid. Seemed unhappy with life. Join the club. He smelled like cinnamon and sulfur.

They were an odd bunch, that was for sure. So why did Ellis feel like the outsider? He only took a moment to take the room and it's occupants in. Shrugging in what he hoped and did look like a nonchalant fashion he threw his bag down at a desk next to August. Sitting down he kicked his own long legs up on the seat of the desk in front of him, folding his arms over his chest, glancing sidelong at the red-head.

""Hey there Batty, what's the word?""</div>"
19969,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-18 02:32:00,Leviathan,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Observant gray optics noticed one of the ex-soccer students rubbing their shin gingerly, presumably a tibia fracture sustained from an old injury on the field—if Raven had to guess. He had not been able to play in weeks and his physical and mental anguish were apparent, especially to the Lolita. It was an aura followed by three tiers. Tier one followed shallow pain and was most easily altered while tier two was physical but tier three was true emotional pain and was commonly inaccessible. Only the malevolent spirit could touch tier three but given time Raven was sure she could mend it, not hinder. 

She watched as he pitifully pressed one laptop key at a time with a jagged index finger, resting his head on an angled palm. His chest rose with a long drawn inhale, lazily peering up to the teacher until the bell rang with freedom. His soccer buddies paid him little mind these days, finding favor in another that took his place. They waved at him before hurrying out the door in high spirits, soon another game would take place and they planned to win. Raven casually dropped her hands continuing to survey this poor soul as he soon limped out the door. She gathered her belongings, a cupcake capsule, and the letter that accidentally fluttered to the floor like a white feather. This message reminding her to the engagement she needed to attend. 

Little time was needed in order to fix ‘soccer guys’ turmoil. He was going the same direction as her after all. Plan of action called for inconspicuous behavior so she took a deep breath and rushed past purposely bumping into him. This caused the already troubled teen to stumble forward but fast hands grabbed onto his arm, which pulled him back to a stand before he could fall over fully…and it was done. Touch was not necessarily needed to help dissolve the pain but it did help, especially if tending to the exact spot of discomfort. How awkward would that be however, to start massaging a student’s shin in the middle of the hallway? Raven would never. 

“My apologies but um, sorry, can’t stay! Bye!” She said in a cutesy manner before scurrying off toward room 12c. Before turning a corner she peeked back to look at the boy as he was arching a brow at his leg able to walk without pain, and a satisfied smirk crossed her pale lips. Brownie points for her she thought happily.

A hand nervously straightened out her ivory button down shirt and black pleaded skirt, with eyes catching the hands on her wristwatch. Time was rapidly passing as she was struggling with trying to find this damn room when ashen eyes finally spotted the door, which she had walked past time and time again. With a shake of her head in ire she inched forward, turning the knob to enter a quiet place. There were few voices but that did not dissuade her from chiming in.

“Hello.” Raven greeted with a warm smile and light wave while scanning the room. None of these people were familiar except for a few of their faces. Raven tended to keep to herself due to her ability. Not only was being surrounded by an immense amount of stranger’s pain exhausting, she sometimes had the negative effect of causing more of it to unsuspecting people—especially those closest to her. 


“I baked <a href=""http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2u7bthz&amp;s=8"">cupcakes</a> for everyone. They are organic.” Cheerfully she stated to the group before biting her lower lip pondering how to place these without being rude.

“Pardon.” Reaching over the man with feet nonchalantly perched upon the wooden table she carefully set down the rounded container. Slender fingers with tidy long nails lifted the tupperware top revealing the contents inside. They were beautiful, each circular dessert with either a red or pink rose. Raven had been practicing her frosting skills but the cake itself may prove deceiving. She could create lovely pieces sure, but making them taste good was a whole different trial and she had not taste tested this batch.  

“Are there many more joining us?” Quizzically Raven asked after casting a worrisome glance at the little masterpieces, too scared to try one herself. </div>"

Jackson had a bit of a sweet tooth, and those cupcakes looked pretty good.  'Should I ask for one, or just walk over and take one? But then I'd have to get up, and that would draw their attention to me and I really don't want to deal with that at the moment. But asking for one would do the same thing, possibly forcing me to actually talk to people, but isn't that what I want? Yeah, it is, come on Jackson just toughenn up a little, you can do this.' Taking a breath, Jackson looked up and opened his mouth to speak.

""Um, what kind are th-"" He started, but stopped as he heard Aphosis' snake-like voice whispering into his mind. 

<span class=""bb-i"">What an interesting bunch of friends you have here, I wonder how long it will take for you to get all of them killed like that last bunch. A day, a week, if your lucky, you might get a whole month. That one girl, the short one, looks like bleeder. I wonder how it tastes, don't you?</span>

Jackson didn't respond, didn't move, didn't even think. The room had been replaced by darkness, and his ears heard only screams or terror and ghastly wailings. He curled in on himself, head on the desk, clutching his head as he whispered to himself.

""Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up and leave me alone.""</div>"

A figure ran, slowed by a lack of vision on the moonless night, the trees seemed to stretch upwards forever into the void and the air itself seemed to posses a tangible evil. She couldn't see where she was going, but she kept swerving through the oak trunks. She wasn't the only presence here-- but that was okay, she knew these woods, she knew this aura, this was Oakenheim. She just needed to get out of the forest and she'd be safe.

Something causes her to trip. Her consciousness drifts as she falls. The pain of hitting the ground doesn't register, her vision begins to blur, but it isn't from disorientation. It's from a new presence. She quickly recovers and turns toward a familiar face. A man, dressed suavely, but with savage features and hungry eyes, he has the horns of a devil. The girl turns to run, knowing she can't escape him. She can hear him laugh, his sick cackle echoes through the undergrowth and impossibly oil black trees.

'He wants you.'

There is a woman. Another woman, different from the running girl. She doesn't move-- she appears. She is the only light in this sinister wood, she appears just within the girl's peripheral vision. She doesn't seem to want to help or harm, she simply is. This woman is pregnant with what looks like the world. The girl tries to find her, she wants anyone to get her away from the horned man, she can feel his sickly fingers brushing against the hair of her neck. She wants to scream but the air won't let her.

As she blinks, she bumps into the the pregnant woman. The woman's expression is neutral, as she leans in close to the girl, the hiss of the horned man surrounds them. The pregnant woman's lips are less than an inch away from the girl's ear. 

The pregnant woman's fair skin becomes cracked, like porcelain, her smile becomes wide and cheshire. The horned man's his has become unbearable.

'You are impure--'</span>

Mary woke with a snort. The annoying, electronic bell chimed away signaling the end of classes for the day. Had she actually attended any of the classes? Aside from art or the rare music extra-curricular, she had mostly been pulled through the day. Like an unwilling child dragged to the dentist by an overbearing mother. That was the nature of school, like a microcosm of life, you didn't really want to be there, but you had to be anyway. 

With a quick shake of her short hair Mary shook any sleep clinging to her person off. By the time she looked up, the classroom was mostly deserted, she was among the few stragglers to keep the teacher from whatever exciting plans he had prepared for the weekend. Mary sighed, she began to gather her things, her mind wandered. What were her plans for the weekend? There weren't any shows going on, so that was out-- she couldn't hang out at the graveyard, there were going to be back to back funerals-- 

As she hoisted her bag over her shoulder her eyes shot to a sliver of paper that had apparently found it's way to her desk while she slept.  

<span class=""bb-i"">""To those that are aware of the <span class=""bb-s"">un</span>seen and <span class=""bb-s"">un</span>explained, you are <span class=""bb-s"">not</span> alone. <span class=""bb-s"">Strange</span> things have been happening in this town, and <span class=""bb-s"">while</span> many <span class=""bb-s"">refuse to</span> accept this, <span class=""bb-s"">or are unable to, we have the opportunity to do something about it</span>. If you wish to know more, then please <span class=""bb-s"">meet me in room 12C. I will understand if you</span> ignore this message.""</span>

Mary put headphones on before entering the hallway, with one hand, she scrolled through music on her phone, with another, she held the doctored invitation. Her head tilted as she read it.

It wasn't like she had anything else to do today.

Mary allowed herself to be carried by the conflicting waves of rushing students to room 12C. She hovered outside of the door, anticipating how she'd go about introducing herself to a group of high schoolers interested in the occult. Gripping the bridge of her nose in a sense of preemptive frustration, she darted her eyes around the hallway, looking to see if any authority figures about. The stillness in the air assuaged her fears. Mary pulled out one of her homemade 'herbal cigarettes' and lit it. 

<span class=""bb-i"">“Are there many more joining us?”</span>

As she entered the room, she blew a plume of lavender smoke ahead of her. Her voice was quiet, ""Maybe."" Mary found herself hovering by the door, observing the room of hormonal Wiccans. 

The girl seemed to have made some cupcakes, and a boy-- man? Young adult she had never seen before was asking about them as Mary came in,  ""Um, what kind are th-"" He started only to stop, clutch at his head and then mutter something to himself. 

Mary's expression was flat, she blew a wisp of smoke in the boy's direction, commenting in a low deadpan, ""Metal."" She looked over the rest of the prospective club members before her eyes came to rest on Kanoa Marigold. She recognized the girl as an eccentric savant from a few of her classes-- this was <span class=""bb-i"">probably</span> her club. ""So, we gonna sacrifice any goats?""</div>"

Nothing was happening. He was still not entirely convinced that anything should be happening. Perhaps he needed to be clearer with his intentions. Perhaps vagueness was a barrier to progress in a situation like this. He tried to clear his mind of additional thoughts and form a clear mental image of what he wanted to happen. Which had no visible effect that he was able to discern. He sighed to himself and sat upright, walking over to the window of the classroom and staring down at the yard. It was empty save for one of two people rushing toward the gate.

At first he had been worried about practising in a public place like a classroom but as it turned out he needn't have worried. If anyone had seen him practising they had kept it to themselves, though it was far more likely that they just blanked it out from their minds. It must have a natural response to the unexplainable. He guessed that until recently he had been exactly the same, his mind closed off from the truth of the world. The truth of the world? The thought made him inwardly cringe at his own egotistical notion that he was now somehow special. Beyond his fellow humans. Now he was angry at himself. Better? Beyond? Then why did he feel so diminished as of late?

Maxwell sighed again and shook his head, stuffing his hands deeply into his jacket pockets. He decided to try a slightly different approach. Behind him the sound of pencil on paper was suddenly audible. There was no point in turning around to confirm what he already knew to be true. The pencil was writing on the paper as if gripped by an invisible hand. He closed his eyes in thought. So it was not a matter of concentration but desire? In fact desire seemed far more important than the intention itself. And it got easier each time as well, more natural and that worried him. He had no idea why.

He turned around and looked down at the paper. The invitation was still there next to the sheet of paper that he had been practising on. He stared at it in silence for a moment before deciding to give it a chance. In all honesty what was the worst that could happen? He walked past the desk and stuffed the invitation into his jacket pocket and pulled his hood up over his head as he walked out of the empty classroom. The pencil sat motionless on the desk. The potted plant on the teachers desk was dead and withered up. It had been alive when he had entered.

<div class=""bb-center"">------------------------------</div>

Maxwell found his way to the meeting point easily enough. It was dark and unpleasant looking. It lacked life. Or spirit. Or whatever it is that places come to lack over time when left to idle. Even with all the people already present it felt unwelcoming somehow. The lack of light made him a little more relaxed about the whole situation though. It felt appropriate somehow. <span class=""bb-b"">“Charming,”</span> he said more to himself than to anyone in particular. A cupcake had found its way into his hand despite him having not been anywhere near them. He took a bite and paused for a moment before carrying on chewing without comment. <span class=""bb-b"">“So, what exactly do you want?”</span> he said before taking another bite.</div>"
19973,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-18 21:01:00,Piercing Light,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The door to 12C opened, and Kanoa raised her violet eyes to see who it was that had the privilege of being the first student to respond to her invitation. Jackson Ducarthym shuffled inside, giving her a stifled greeting before sitting down in the darkest part of the room with his hood over his head. Kanoa raised a brow and smiled a derisive grin. ""Ya know, you're trying so hard not to stand out you're having the opposite effect."" She said. Kanoa didn't know much about Jackson, other than the fact that he obviously wasn't very interested in letting <span class=""bb-i"">anyone</span> know much about him. His mumbled greeting was the first time she'd heard his voice, it made her see gray. Gray was such an ambivalent color.

Soon enough another person walked in, Kanoa had to blink twice as she saw the strands of vibrant red hair on the short girl's head, bright reds were always so... Pushy. It was August Battaglia, someone that was a little infamous in the school. She introduced herself, and sat down on a desk. Kanoa mimicked the smile she gave. ""Yes, this is the correct room, glad you could make it, August."" She nodded. 

The next person to walk inside was Orion Ellis. Kanoa glared at him subconsciously. Orion bothered her for some reason, many reasons actually. She had nothing against him personally, however, nearly everything about him pervaded her with obtuse sensations. His voice was like static on an old CRT television, only bits of color specked here and there. And he smelled like... something, whatever it was it made her both aware and on guard at the same time. He took a seat near August, and called her Batty. What an unfortunate last name. ""Occult, is the word of the day. Nice to see you could make it, Ellis."" Kanoa's tense expression turned lackadaisical once more. 

Raven Bonnay then walked in, carrying with her a large round container. She greeted everyone with a smile, and said she had brought cupcakes. Kanoa's ears perked up, and she hopped off her seat. An over-sized blue ribbon on her chest bounced as she hurried over to the slew of desserts. She picked up a cupcake adorned with icing roses. ""Raven Bonnay, these may be cakes, but you get many brownie points."" She shoved the entire cupcake into her mouth. ""Urm, a fru muh."" She mumbled, in response to her question. It was then that Jackson began to have what looked like a psychotic episode, he was curled on the floor in pain mumbling to himself. Kanoa's chewing only slowed slightly as she glanced at him, though her attention was soon drawn towards Mary. 

A puff of purple smoke preceded her, at least Kanoa thought it was purple, she could never really be too sure. She didn't bother stating the ramifications of smoking in the school, instead she turned to her and greeted her. ""Nif thu mim-..."" She finally swallowed the cupcake. ""you, Mary, thank you for coming. We won't be sacrificing any goats, not unless something comes up anyhow, you can never be too sure."" She said, holding up a finger as if she were saying something factual. She then turned back to Jackson. She looked him over as he writhed in pain, he didn't appear to be sick, and she didn't see him injured.

""Hmm..."" She glanced upwards, seeming to look at thin air. ""I see... A possession."" Kanoa whispered, reaching into a pocket on her skirt. She pulled out a thin strip of paper that was etched with strange symbols in the shapes of twisted Latin. She knelled down to Jackson's level and slapped the paper on his forehead. ""That should keep things calm for a little while. You may feel a little stiff, but that will wear off. At least it should anyway.""

As she stood back up she noticed that Maxwell had entered the room. ""Oh, hello Maxwell. u-um, nice of you to come."" Kanoa coughed anxiously into her arm and walked up to him. Maxwell's presence was a tad unnerving, though not in the same way as Orion's. Maxwell's voice was icy blue, and sent shivers down her spine. It was both inviting, yet frightening. ""I've invited you all here for a reason, I assure you. We all have something in common, we know that there are strange things happening in this town. There are ghosts and spirits, perhaps a few monsters. So for those of you who believed that you were alone in noticing these things, you should know that you aren't alone."" Kanoa moved to the center of the room, and took a seat in a chair. ""I also have a proposition for you all, but first, I'd like to get to know you all better, if that is alright with you that is. My name is Kanoa Marigold, and I was born with the ability to perceive the supernatural. So my tether, my connection to the supernatural, makes me what is simply called a Natrual. Um, does anyone else want to introduce themselves?""</div>"
19974,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-19 01:27:00,Constantine,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Maxwell surveyed the occupants of the room from under his hood as he listened to Kanoa speak, his penetrating green eyes moving from person to person after a brief moment of contemplation, gauging their reactions to Kanoa's words. He had picked up on her uncertainty when she had greeted him. Had he done something to unnerve her? He got that kind of reaction more often than he would have liked. Regardless his own reaction was that of plain acceptance. 

A weak, short lived smile found its way to his lips and was gone just as fast. A few months ago he would not have believed a single word coming out of her mouth. It all sounded a bit too much like the fictional horror stories that his father peddled in. Hell, he probably would have never even showed in the first place. But here he was and he was ready to listen, if nothing else. If he was lucky he might even receive answers. Maxwell closed his eyes for a moment and processed what he was hearing. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Natural huh? There's nothing natural about this,”</span> he said from under his hood in a voice that sounded as though he was suddenly irritated. He tutted at his own words. He hadn't meant to sound angry but he was aware that that was how it had come across. He tried a different tact. <span class=""bb-b"">“This is new to me, so from my point of view there is nothing natural about any of this.”</span> He took another bite out of the bland but acceptable cupcake. Her words made a certain kind of sense, especially after what had happened. Perhaps that was the manifestation of the so called 'tether' that she spoke of.

Since nobody else spoke up first he felt that he might as well.<span class=""bb-b"">“The name's John Maxwell, though I guess many of you already know that. Rumours travel fast in this town. I'm the guy who stepped off a bridge,”</span> he said simply. <span class=""bb-b"">“Let's get one thing straight, I didn't try to kill myself. I don't remember exactly what happened but I get the feeling that someone told me to step off of that bridge and that I couldn't say no. But with that said I don’t remember hitting the water either. So who knows.”</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">“Anyway I woke up...different. Since that day it feels as though a part of me is missing. That it was replaced somehow. With what I have no idea,”</span> he knew how crazy he must of sounded but there was no point stopping now. <span class=""bb-b"">“As for what that did to me, I don't suppose anyone actually saw me go near cupcake girl,”</span> he said before eating the last bite. <span class=""bb-b"">“Telekinesis or whatever you want to call it,”</span> he said, not entirely convinced that that was what it was. He decided not to mention about the dying plants, not yet anyway. <span class=""bb-b"">""Pleased to meet you all.""</span></div>"

But the second she placed the tag on, however, the glow disappeared, and with it the spectral arm, which was visible to all present due to their tethers. Jackson took a breath, coughing slightly as he did so due to irritation of his throat, but otherwise he was fine. 

""Th-thank you Kanoa, and I'm sorry for bothering you. That happens from time to time."" Jackson then stood up, looking at those around him from under his hood with a cautious, and somewhat guilty, eye. He took another breath, this time to calm himself down before he spoke to everyone. ""Uh,hello everyone, my name is Jackson Ducarthy and it's a pleasure to meet you I, uh, I hope we can all become fri- fri-,"" Jackson tried to say the word, but it wouldn't  he just couldn't, especially right after he had an attack. Clearing his throat, Jackson tried again, ""I hope we can all get along."" He finished silently, walking over quickly to grab a cupcake before siting back in his seat, taking a moment to gather his thoughts for what he was going to say and do next. With another clearing of throat and steadying of nerves, Jackson spoke up again, explaining his. . . condition to the rest.

""I'm a Natural as well, I guess, as I've been able to see and hear spirits all my life, though I did more hearing then seeing until recently. I also have an ability, though I've only acquired recently, and I despise it above all else. I obtained it after a. . . certain event happened that led to me being partially possessed by this spirit. This has given me a type of astral projection, an ability to project the spirit's soul to interact with the physical world, if you will allow me to demonstrate."" 

Focusing, Jackson was surprised not to feel any pain and resistance as he called on Aphosis' soul, causing his eye to glow brightly, a trail of silver energy seeming bursting from it as he rose his hand towards one of the empty desks. From his hand came another gnarled limb, superimposed upon Jackson's arm for a second before shooting for the chair, gripping it by the back, and pulling it over to him. After he finished, he released his grip on Aphosis, and the energy and arm faded away. 

""I'm not sure how far I can take this ability, especially when the spirit resists. Something he does rather frequently. Also I warn you, be wary when I use this ability. It makes it easier for the spirit to wrest control of me, so please be careful. I don't wish to hurt anyone else with my blunders."" With his piece said, Jackson went back to eating his cupcake, his normal eye being covered by the talisman Kanoa stuck in his head. What ever it was, it shut Aphosis up and he wasn't going to question it. And he sure as hell wasn't going to remove it, he didn't care how stupid it looked.</div>"
19976,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-19 21:58:00,Spawnling,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">August, having been mostly ignored by the boy and Kanoa after the initial greeting and confirmation of the number, had occupied herself by staring at the flickering lights intently, biting her lip as she mentally planned out the electronics and how she could easily fix the flickering. Orion entered next, and Kanoa's usual placid expression was replaced for a moment before it came back up again. The boy lounged next to the red head, greeting her in his usual laid back demeanor. Her eyes whipped down to Orion, giving a quirked grin.

""Not much Oreo. As she said, spooky scary skeletons and haunted houses abound. Still living in the North Pole?""

Orion's calm demeanor rarely failed to get some girl giggling, though August just found it...sedate. It wasn't particularly appealing or off putting, but she would happily admit that Orion himself wasn't hard on the eyes. And didn't seemed annoyed by her seemingly boundless amount of energy. Or how frequently she blew things up. Or electrocuted herself. Or cut the power in the building. Really he just didn't seem to ever be bothered by...anything. Well, she wasn't about to be able to fix the lights in the middle of a meeting, so instead August decided to hop off her current desk, hop onto the desk behind Orion, and lean onto his shoulders, huffing in mild boredom. Whether he pushed her aside or not, she didn't really mind. ANYTHING was better than just sitting in silence staring at the lights. She could already hear her friends being annoyed. 'You laid on him!?' like he was something to be venerated. He was good looking, not made of gold.

""No one's talking...m'bored.""

Another student entered. Best described as gray, August had never met her before. Her eyes seemed oddly large. She was pretty, like a porcelain doll. She placed cupcakes on the desk, though August didn't go for them. She instead waved at the girl with one hand, letting Kanoa talk and...engulf one of the baked treats. Sugar caused August to go haywire, she was already a bundle of energy as it was. They looked amazing though, the girl was clearly a skilled baker! The boy in the corner started talking to himself. She'd find it odd, but considering her current situation...that would probably be premature.

Another visitor, looked like everyone decided all at once to show up, this one preceded by smoke. August didn't know her personally, but had seen her around. She looked about as interested in the world as a frog would be in algebra. A dead frog. With headphones on. She was cute though. In a...statue...sort of way. She gave another wave, green eyes flitting up to the flickering light again as the urge to tinker started rising. Something about a goat?

""We'd need a tarp.""

She mumbled before, once again, another student walked in. This club seemed popular. Maxwell, August recognized him. Mostly because of the rumors running around him. Where Orion seemed laid back, Max just seemed...distant. Like his sense of apathy was just too much to care. Kanoa seemed...eager...to greet him. August quirked a brow and gave a small grin. Cute.

As Kanoa started the meeting, August leaned back on the desk, still sitting cross legged on the top, as she listened. The first boy mentioned telekinesis. Manipulation of electrical fields? Magnetism? Ooky spooky spirit arm grabber thing? Hard to say. Her eyes moved now to the quiet boy who had decided to talk to himself and whom Kanoa decided a piece of paper would solve the problems. Homeopathy? Oh wait, occult. August needed to get out of her logical mindset for this crowd. Especially when Jackson grew a third arm and pulled a freaking chair across the room. This caused August to sit upright almost immediately, eyes wide.

""Oh RADICAL! Oh crap, did I just use a seriously old term for that? Ugh, I gotta stop watching old movies while I work. Still, that was cool! Oh, I guess I'll go next? I'm August Battaglia, or Batty as Oreo here seems to prefer.""

August pat Ellis on the head before continuing.

""Uhhh, if you all remember the power going out in the school about three days ago, that was me. And the power outage in the town about two weeks ago? Me also. I guess if we're being totally upfront and forward about all this, well, I died. For 4 seconds, I was legally dead, and I was resuscitated.""

It felt...weird talking about it out loud. Still, couldn't be worse than ghost arms, so in for a penny in for a pound.

""Unlike having something useful like floating cupcakes towards me or pulling chairs out from under others, I...feel things. Things left behind by others, things that kinda fill an area. Emotions, feelings. Hard to explain, like...residual feelings and thhhhings. Look I don't fully understand it myself, but basically I can feel the emotions left behind in places or objects. I think. Sorta. Yeah. We'll go with that.""

Satisfied that she made perfect sense, August gave a wave and folded her hands in her lap, grinning wide at the assembled students. Nailed it!</div>"

Curled lashes blinked a few times as he proceeded to draw his body inward as if trying to disappear. Surely baked goods were not cause for alarm but perhaps he had a traumatizing accident in the kitchen with a high speed blender a year past? ‘How awful’ she thought before scanning over the scene a bit more. An overwhelming aura of suffering loomed and surrounded this ill-fated being, how could Raven just leave him to this wretched device? Even if she could not dissolve his troubles fully she could attempt it, at least though she wondered if he would even be willing to let her help.

Before any attempt could be made another student arrived donning a pixie cut and cigarette in mouth pursed. An air of confidence followed this one yet arrogance could easily replace the previous word. The Lolita did not mind however, regardless of her own girly appearance Raven could adapt to anyone’s personality. There were few she clashed with especially since she came across as so submissively happy-go-lucky, an assumed people pleaser no doubt. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Actually dark chocolate and vanilla bean.”</span> Raven corrected with a nod though her smile waned while glancing back to the anxious boy.
 
Pixie’s smoke hovered in the dense air a surprisingly pleasant flowery bouquet and reminded her of the Lavender Honey cupcakes she had tried baking once before. Those were alright, a bit bland but organic none-the-less. Raven loved all things natural yet one would not be able to tell from her dolled up appearance. While reminiscing about goodies the door cracked ajar once again, and a male entered without speaking straight away. Instead of words a cupcake entered his mouth via flight and Raven could not help but grin with contentment as two were enjoying the treats currently. 

Mid-cupcake Kanoa decided to intervene with the hunched over male, and a startled Raven jumped ever so slightly as a piece of paper was smacked onto the possessed forehead. This seemed to do the trick as the hooded boy’s eye faded back to a normal hue instead of liquid silver. For now, there was no need to disrupt the seal as all seemed under control—presently. A few heated words were spoken by the pupil known as Maxwell who seemed unenthused with this whole ordeal. This did not stop him from introducing himself, along with a few others who demonstrated a small part of their abilities. Each holding unique capabilities, capabilities which could be twisted and used for immoral deeds. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Pleased to meet you too.”</span> She politely responded after witnessing Maxwell’s object manipulation, which seemed handy though his bridge incident was fresh news to her. 

Next up was the one bedeviled who went by Jackson. His skills highly noticeable to a detectable degree; one would not openly display such possession lest he or she be sent straight to a psychiatric hospital or worse yet--church. Unlike Maxwell, Jackson seemed utterly plagued by his talent and it nearly crippled him. His stutters were evidence of deep torture, he second guessed himself often thus doubling his words. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“The best of friends.”</span> Raven chimed in after he was finished and continued on the cupcake, even though he was not able to say the word she could. 

Raven wore a sweet smile but held a mischievous glint in her eyes. A part of her loved all the anguish; this other half thrived on it like a poisonous oleander for milk. Being near these troubled Supernaturals was exhilarating. All this power and pain in arms reach was almost too good to be true-- yet the side not affected by the leeching spirit desired to help eradicate everyone’s woe. However, all the suffering in this room emitting from each body was almost suffocating Raven. She so wished to step outside to get some fresh air but refused the impulse. The majority of this agony was untouchable so there was little she could do to fix the situation. A sickness began to churn her stomach and she decided to lean her back against a wall, twisting a lock of shiny hair between a thumb and index finger, observing per usual on the next teen. 

Focusing on Red, easily excitable the one with the fiery hair as she exclaimed in glee at the group and what they could do. The red one shared her tether and how she did not fully comprehend her power just yet. It was refreshing to see how lively and carefree August felt about it. She was not completely torn up by this fact unlike so many of them, including Raven. Speaking of torn, Raven was not sure if she wanted to share a trick or even be in the spotlight. Like a doll placed delicately in an armoire, they were only looked at occasionally and then left alone. People confided in dolls not asked them their secrets. So, should she lie or trust them with vulnerability? 

Neither.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Hmmm.”</span> A sing song hum came from the quaint black and white dressed female. <span class=""bb-b"">“I cannot stop thinking about this proposition Kanoa. Do tell.”</span> A curious stance was taken, placing a hand on her hip she waited eagerly to hear the premise.</div>"

""12.. C"" mumbled Cory to himself, looking at his scrap piece of notepaper as he wandered into a wing of school he hadn't been in since his first year, looking up again, he counted the doors to himself as he walked, a childish habit but a helpful one nonetheless. ""3, 5, 7...8, 10.. Wait.."" he'd stutter, turning on a heel and finding himself looking at the side of the corridor. After quick correction, he approaches the class, affirming it as the place to meet by listening to the sound of chatter within. 

Tentatively he hangs in the doorway, poking his head and torso into the class before moving into the wooden frame fully, ""Uh, hi"" he'd say curtly, raising a hand in a similarly short wave of address. ""This is 12C, eh? The um, uh.. Meeting place, or something"" he begins, quickly losing his train of thought. In an attempt to salvage his attempt at speech, he draws a crumpled letter from his back pocket, holding it up for all to see. He looks like he's going to continue his previous runaway sentence, but instead decides against it and waits for a response.</div>"

It should have been more...unnerving. Perhaps this was also part of the tether that Kanoa mentioned before. He closed his eyes in thought and grimaced, shaking his head after a moment. No, that wasn't right, not exactly. The ability to perceive something alone should not automatically remove the fear that it elicits. Right? There was so much that he did not understand. Without turning toward her he locked his eyes on Kanoa and followed her for a moment. 

What was it she had called herself? A natural? She certainly seemed to be in the know at any rate. Was that because she was a natural or was it something else? How many naturals were there and why had he or anybody else for that matter ever heard of them. How was it that the supernatural remained exactly that, myth and superstition. Then again who would believe her or anyone else for that matter save for another natural. Or those who had been personally exposed and left tethered. The thought brought an unpleasant sensation of pressure to his chest so he discarded it for the moment.</div>"

This sort of stalker-like behavior was usually quite below him, but strange circumstances called for strange measures taken against them. He watched what sorts of people entered the room, trying to decipher a pattern. He knew these people, he knew just about everyone that attended this school. But what did they have in common? His brow furrowed, and he looked back to the creased note clenched tightly in his hand. Why had he received this? What did they know?

At first he thought it best to ignore it. This note was probably some sort of prank, or it was meant for someone else. But it had been in <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> locker. Perhaps he was attaching unnecessary meaning to it, but the possibility of it being genuine burned in his mind like a hot coal. <span class=""bb-i"">Why</span> did they give this to him. <span class=""bb-i"">What did they know?</span> For the umpteenth time that day, Everett crushed the note in his hand, a snarl breaking across his face. A dangerous glint shone in his eye; normally he was far more amicable, but this note was akin to a threat, and he did not take kindly to threats.

Eventually he grew tired of waiting and watching, and knew he had to take this matter into his own hands. With the strength of conviction, he marched to the door and swung it open quickly enough to give a startling bang against the wall. His face was cool, but his single yellow eye had the aura of an enraged predator. His gaze swept across the room callously, looking at the present company as though they were insects. He exhaled from his nose sharply, and tossed the ruined note onto the floor in front of him.

""Which of you is responsible for this?"" He said in a clear, cold tone.</div>"

They found themselves coming to rest on Kanoa. Mary knew her as something of a savant. Or, at the very least, smarter than she-- she could recall sitting behind her in 9th grade, completely unashamed of her cheating. Kanoa didn't always have the right answers, but it worked. Thinking about it now, she was probably completely aware of what Mary had been doing. Inhaling more smoke, she reminded herself to one day thank Kanoa for that, she probably wouldn't have passed that class without her. 

Her brow almost furrowed in confusion at the ""mff mph mff"" that Kanoa had responded to her with, before she swallowed her cupcake and continued, ""--you, Mary, thank you for coming. We won't be sacrificing any goats, not unless something comes up anyhow, you can never be too sure."" 

Mary's neutral expression disappeared at that, becoming replaced by an impossibly wide smile, ""Right!?"" She exaggerated her movements, ""You can never know how easily your problems might be solved by gratuitous amounts of ritual sacrificial violence to goats and goat-like creatures!""

""We'd need a tarp."" Mary's head turned to the voice. She was greeted with the sight of August Battaglia-- a girl whom she had only known in name, and only knew that name because of how very unique it was. She looked like the girl from <span class=""bb-i"">Brave</span>. 

""Only if you don't want to bathe in the blood of the beast!"" She responded in an overly chipper tone, ""Why you'd want to miss out on that I'd never know, it's like the best part!""

Mary's expression returned a to a flat deadpan. Instead of selecting a seat, she opted to walk about the room, listening as Kanoa introduced herself and stated what she somehow knew to be obvious to everyone in the room-- Obvious to Mary, at the very least. People seemed to take turns after that, going, as if queued up, while Mary paced around the room smoking like a purple chimney. 

Maxwell seemed like fun. The boy named Jackson didn't have schizophrenia, as she had initially thought, no, he was just a  mutant superhero or something. August's ability was apparently possessing feelings and not being a sociopath. And Raven, who Mary had only just noticed, was...

<span class=""bb-i"">How had she never seen her before?</span>

""Yeah..."" Mary's tone was contemplative, she tore her eyes away from Raven, bringing them back to the Kanoa, ""Honestly, I'm just wondering what it is this is all about as well.""

After a moment, a handsome head belonging to a confused man poked into the room, looking for a meeting place. Performing her civic duty, Mary walked over to the door and promptly blew smoke into the newcomer's face, ""No. You have the wrong room. Go Away.""

Another moment passed, and Mary, still by the door, greeted a new visitor. This one seemed angry-- Mary was no expert empath, like August, apparently, but she was cognizant enough to recognize that slamming open doors and throwing down notes in a dramatic fashion signified anger.

<span class=""bb-i"">Or maybe an addiction to daytime television.</span>

Regardless, Mary went about solving the problem like she solved all problems. She blew smoke in the intruder's face and, letting the hand fall limply to the side, she met his gaze and whispered two of the most impacting words possible to answer his question; ""Your mom.""</div>"

There were few moments that couldn't be improved with baked goods. One long, languid limb unfolded to swipe the dessert. Chewing on it thoughtfully, Ellis slanted his eyes back on August. Oreo? Black on the outside white on the inside. Alliterative to the first two digits of his name. Yeah,  had heard that one before. Still, he'd been called worse. As she leaned into him, Ellis just smirked wryly, his eyes shut. Ah, the scintillating vagaries of youth.

After that he didn't move much. Eyes shut, tight smile. He breathed slowly. His hair was tousled, He watched. He Listened.

Anecdotes of the bizarre and the fantastical, demonstrations of ability and phenomenon beyond the ken of mankind, and of course, the posturing endemic to the young and the restless. Orion tapped his foot on the floor. He should have been excited. Here was a revelation to the unseen wonders of the world, the very sort of mysteries he had always fantasized about. Or maybe he should have been terrified of seeing his mundane schema shattered by this unreserved show and tell of supernal acumen. Instead, all Orion could think about was how his lungs felt like they were wildly different temperatures. It had happened as soon as Raven had entered the stage with her cupcakes. Or how Mary's introduction made the bite of cupcake he had been thoughtfully chewing suddenly taste of asparagus and asphalt. Maxwell had what Ellis could only describe as the odor of a sonic boom. The shadows on Cory's body were inhabited by non-euclidean geometry in an awful shade of orange. Everett was accompanied by the echoes of an orchestra being fed into a smelter.

Ellis took a deep breath and sighed. He opened his eyes. He looked around the room at the rag-tag group of miscreants. As surprising in their variety as number. Freaks, geeks, lords, and leasers, all touched by strange and disparate powers. Ellis wondered where he fell in the mix. Kicking his feet off the desk he planted them wide and stood, sprouting like a long, lean birch. Surveying the assembled throng once more his gaze finally settled on the surly Mister Oannes. Ellis couldn't help but snort a little, amused. Who knew the supernatural world had such loose standards with who they invited in. Ellis turned rolled his head to look at the invitation thrown on the ground, then at Marigold, Ellis frowned only slightly. Someone knew.

""Interesting bunch you got yourself here Madame President,"" he arched an eyebrow questioningly, ""should we pack our wands and wizard hats for Hogwarts or is this more of a Winchester kind of deal?""</div>"

But he couldn't help the anger he felt bubbling inside as he looked around. He could tell that none of them took any of this seriously, except for maybe Maxwell amd Kanoa. Posdibly Raven, but that was it was hard to get a read on her. When she smiled at him, it seemed genuine, but he'd noticed the mischief in her eyes. He'd seen looks like that before, in his nightmares, only they bore a lot more insanity and bloodlust. Anyway, it seemed to him that most of those assembled didn't understand, or just didn't care about how dangerous the world of the supernaturalwas. He knew, all to well, that this world bore horrors worse than any nightmare.

Jackson was jolted out of his thought, however, by the golden eyed boy with the eye patch that had barged in. He looked down on all of them, that was clear, and seemed to demand who had called this meeting. Mary, the one smoking the lavender scented cigarette, told him 'your mom' after blowing smoke in his face. Then another boy spoke up, asking Kanoa what this was all about. Jackson wished to listen as well, for he was rather curious, but whispers in the back of his head pointed his focus back to the arrogant o e with the eye patch. 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Who does that worm think he is, looking down on you like that?!? Calm on Jackson, why don't you tear out his eyes, or better yet, that prideful ti gue of his. Come on Jackson, you know you want to.'</span>

Jackson shook his head, dislodging the whispers from his mind, and went back to focusing on Kanoa. He should have known better thab to believe a piece of paper would hold Aphosia back for long. At least it had weakened his influence to only dim whispers. Jackson could handle and ignore those.</div>"

John spoke first. From the tone of his voice she could tell that was irritated, though he quickly calmed himself down. He wasn't a Natural, in fact, he had been manipulated by a spirit of some kind and forced to attempt suicide. She jotted down a few more notes, she knew of a few entities that could have been responsible, but she couldn't be sure. He mentioned that he had an ability similar to telekinesis, that narrowed the list of suspects down a bit. Jackson spoke next. He was a Natural apparently, yet he had somehow been possessed by a spirit of some kind. He must have been a fluke within his family, it would explain his lack of knowledge. He showcased his 'ability,' it was more akin to a symptom, truthfully.

August, who had been using Orion as furniture up until now, was shocked and fascinated by the display. Kanoa let out a stifled giggle, it was refreshing to see someone new to the supernatural world respond in such a way, most people tended to just freak out. The fiery haired girl then properly introduced herself. Kanoa already knew of her exploits as a rogue electrician, however, she did not know that the girl had experienced a close encounter with death. It had somehow left her with a hyper empathetic ability of some kind. She had never seen this kind of effect, but crossing over to the other side was always a chaotic venture.

Kanoa's note taking stopped as Raven spoke to her directly, apparently she did not want to introduce herself, perhaps she should give everyone nametags. ""Raven, I'll explain more in a moment."" She sighed and put away her notepad, she didn't expect everyone to open up right now, but it was discouraging. 

Two more people walked in, both male. Before Kanoa could greet them Mary trotted over and... did what she could only assume was a 'Mary' like greeting. She didn't believe Cory deserved that, but Everett? How dare he treat her invitation in such a crude manner! Orion chimed in with a snarky comment, honestly making her question her entire plan. She wasn't sure this group of people could handle what was coming, but there was little other choice besides trying to do it alone. 

Kanoa loudly cleared her throat to get everyone's attention, and walked over to Mary and the two newcomers. ""Mary, please."" She said, gently taking the burning plant from her hands and putting it out against the wall. ""I've called you all here for a reason, like I said."" She turned to Cory and Everett, and quickly filled them in as to what they missed. 

""Some of you may have heard about this on the news, but a student from this school has gone missing. The police have no leads, and his parents know nothing. This may seem like nothing too abnormal, however, the boy vanished under very strange circumstances. His clothes were found in a tattered pile, and leaves were found at the scene of the vanishing, leaves from trees that are far in the forests. I believe a supernatural being may have taken him, and if it's true, then that means anyone in our town may be at risk. So what I'm asking is, who here will help me save our fellow student, and protect our home?""</div>"

Despite the bizarre introduction, he decided against turning back now, given how long the cold walk home would be. Waving away the cloud of stinging fumes, Cory moved to the fourth row of desks, taking a seat on one, crossing one leg over the other in a nonchalant pose, eyes fixated on Kanoa who had begun a small speech of sorts.

The preppy looking girl went on about that kid who'd blinked from existence a little while back, a disturbing event that had shaken most of the student body when it was first reported. As Kanoa droned on, adopting a leading tone as she began to rally the population of the classroom, Cory's mind pondered on the disappearance of the kid she'd mentioned. Disappearing without a trace was something out of a bad episode of CSI, but in lieu of Cory's new power, it seemed less impossible. 

'Perhaps he had something similar to me..' Cory thought to himself, tapping his finger on the desk once. As his fingertip drummed against the wood, a hole suddenly appeared, about 3 inches across. Cory's eyes widened as he quickly removed his hand from the table, cursing himself quietly for being so absent minded.</div>"

He had thought little of it at the time, having just been released from the hospital. Now he found himself wondering if it was related in any way to what had happened to him. Then again if what Kanoa was saying was legitimate then it seemed to be unlikely. Maxwell had stepped off of a bridge in broad day light. There had been no attempt to make him disappear, plenty of people would have seen him die. But this kid had disappeared without a trace. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Shit,”</span> he said aloud without meaning to. He could just walk away now and forget about all of this. He could have but that was not the way the world worked. At least not for him. Not any more. Hearing about this kid brought back memories of his parents worried faces when they had thought that he had tried to kill himself. No parent deserved that. Even if this kid was dead they deserved to know. Right? <span class=""bb-b"">“I'll help,”</span> he said to Kanoa, making sure that he made eye contact with her so that she would know that he was sincere, though in the end he just looked as though he was glaring at her. Aware of this he looked away and instead stared away to the side, his eyes narrowed thoughtfully.</div>"

She would have spoken yet another much less easy going burst through the door. Raven squinted eyes at the loud noise and crossed her arms in ire. Sudden deafening noises were gravely unwarranted; being startled was something she did not like and this would be the second time today it had happened. Oddly enough the petite girl was easily prone to jumping but this was the only thing that seemed to cause her panic—as of yet.

Cloudy eyes watched as the note slid across the floor before coming to a halt. A brow then arched toward the male with an eye patch covering a golden orb. From first glance he seemed intimidating but Raven could care less about imposing appearances, usually these beings were the opposite of what they tried to portray. This room certainly held a neat little package of personalities so far, what fun would the days ahead hold? She could only imagine and smirk lightly at the prospects of it all. 

With that aside everyone continued to speak but her attention was drawn back to the ruggedly handsome newcomer. Ever since he entered all the talk of sacrifice and blood went in one ear and out the other. Usually she would have thrown two cents in but from his square jawline, broad shoulders, and intense hazel hues one could not bypass such allure and not stare. Of course she had seen him passing before and was instantly taken by his characteristics--though his first impression was a little lackadaisical. Pixie most likely hindered that as well, breathing in a lung full of smoke would cause anyone to lash out yet he remained calm. Hmm.

Raven listened as Kanoa spoke about a vanished boy she had never met, eyes dancing from the president to that man who caused a circular void in the desk. Pearly front teeth bit down upon the bottom of her peach colored lip, restraining a giggle. At first she thought he purposely removed the structure but he seemed utterly distraught afterward, which she found inconveniently cute. It was a cuss word that made Raven glance up to Maxwell who agreed to lend his assistance. Raven really had nothing else to do beside stay inside and study anatomy. A real life mystery may be fun, and no one had ever asked for her help before least of all sought her out.  

<span class=""bb-b"">“Fascinating.”</span> Raven said candidly. <span class=""bb-b"">“When do we begin?”</span> Not finding questions necessary at this moment her words were brief and she was more than willing to tag along.</div>"

Jackson said, his voice filled, not with fear, but vengeful anger. . . as well as desperation. His hand, curled around his wounded arm, his mind thinking back to the night of horror, but instead of him, it was someone else. He couldn't. he wouldn't let that happen, not if he could help it. ""We all ready might be to late, but we have to try anyway. If we don't, the missing student could die, if he isn't already. . . or worse."" Turning to Kanoa, he continued talking. ""Do you have any idea what we're going up against, anything at all, even the smallest of myths or rumors would be nice?"" 

<span class=""bb-i"">'Why do you care for so much for a dead boy?' Aphosis whispered, 'You do now that he's probably dead by now,it's been a week. And even if he's not, chances are he'll wish he was. Just like you do. I now that you're afraid of that August girl, afraid of what her abilities might tell her about your lovely little collection.'</span> Jackson went rigid, much to Aphosis' delight. Jackson collection of knives was always a constant temptation, and like any good guardian would do, Aphosis made sure to stop Jackson from indulging in such a fatal addiction. Jackson had finally stopped trying, but the emotions he felt on those nights would stain those knives forever. <span class=""bb-i"">'Every knife tells a story of sorrow, weakness, and instability, and each time, I stopped you from pushing the blade into deep.

Your in this for life, Jacky-boy, and there isn't going to be an easy way out.'</span>

Jackson said nothing, making as if he hadn't heard a word of what the spirit had said. But he'c heard everything, and he couldn't help but fearfully glance at the short red head, hoping he'd never have tomget anywhere near here in the near future. One of his instinctively reach down into his pocket, grabbing his swithblade knife in an effort to calm himself. His knives always gave him a sense of empowerment, a feeling that he was in control of his life. Now, however, while still comforting, they held no such power. He wasn't able to take charge of his life anymore. Aohosis' had taken from him, like everything else, that one comfort. That one thing he'd been wishng for over a month.

Only Kanoa, Jackson, Maxwell, and herself had really revealed anything about themselves and their abilities. No one was much of a surprise to the red head. Nothing she hadn't seen a thousand times before in high school. Mary was sarcastic, but not uncaring, else she'd have just ignored everyone. Jackson was...melodramatic and afraid of something. Kanoa was studying them, but Kanoa studied everything as August recalled. Raven was a liar, judging by the emotions she was constructing. A damn good one at that. Orion was calmly strained, as usual. The one with the eye-patch was trying too hard to play Alpha Wolf. Cory was focusing on something internally. Max was awkwardly avoiding anyone's eyes, another liar? No, self conscious. That explained it. She wished her abilities let her read people that were around her, it would have made it much easier than just going off prior knowledge and experience. It'd be a few hours before she could read this room for what the others had left behind. And it'd be diluted, probably wouldn't be able to pinpoint anything to one specific person. Combine it with her current observations though, she could probably nail it down a bit better. 

That freaking light! August tilted her head back to look at it again. Variable voltage sucked, but since it was the only flickering one, August had already pinpointed where the wiring was wrong. Couldn't reach the roof though. She tuned back into the conversation as Jackson gave her a look. She smiled and waved, then looked at Kanoa. No reason to be hostile to anyone yet, no one had done anything wrong and everyone was probably weighing in whether or not they should stay involved. The redhead held up her hands, as if weighing her options.

""Spooky ghosties, missing people, and bathing in the blood of the beast...""

A quirked brow at Mary.

""Or geometry homework. Gee, let me thinkI'm in!""

August grinned, leaning back on the desk. Her hand slipped, and with a sharp yelp she fell backwards onto the ground with a heavy thud as the air was forced out of her lungs.

""Ow ow ow...don't worry, I'm -oof- cool!""

She got up, dusting herself off before holding up a finger.

""And besides, we can use this as a little bonding trip so the folks who decided to avoid answering anything about themselves can open up or choose to leave.""

A quirked grin at the assembled students as August put her hands on her hips, head cocked to one side. No reason to be hostile. But a little prod never hurt.

""So, on top of all the other questions, where exactly is the spot he went missing from?""</div>"

Mary felt as Kanoa's hand lightly brushed against her own, her hands were soft, similar to the fleeting purple haze that hung in the air. Perhaps it was the unexpected touch that slowed her down, that mundane sensation of a slight connection made with another human being that filled Mary's numbed senses to a climax they hadn't reached in what, in that instant, felt like eons, lifetimes. Like it was an organic pleasure that had been denied her by forces unseen, but in that microsecond, that permanent quantum point in space-time, they had fucked up. A bunch of high schoolers getting together to talk about ghosts hadn't been part of their plans.

<span class=""bb-i"">That was silly.</span>

Still. The cool tingling phantom touch of Kanoa's hand remained. Had it really been that long since she had touched someone else? That couldn't be it-- she touched plenty of people! She hugged her mother all the time! She was a groupie, she went to concerts! She might not have actively sought out the touch of others as her peers might had, but it was certainly present.

What was it then, that made this human contact fill her with the oddest sense of ecstasy? It wasn't planned. It wasn't something <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> had accounted for. In a life, filled with miraculously random events that felt completely planned and numbing, leading only to an unsatisfying early grave. This was the first event in recent memory that had reminded her that she was... alive.

In the violet fogged darkness of her mind, voices, masculine and feminine, seemed to whisper something she couldn't make out; <font color=""dimgray""><span class=""bb-i"">'You are <span class=""bb-s"">impure.</span>'</span></font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Alright.</span>

It was pleasant. Incredibly so. The moment hung, her brain had to fire off so many chemical impulses at once that time dilated to feel like an entire existence could pass it through. Why? Did Mary just had a thing for Asian women? 

Smoke was clearing, much faster than usual-- a shrieking laugh, she could almost feel his horns as he spoke; <font color=""dimgray""><span class=""bb-i"">'An impure whore, <span class=""bb-s"">you should make her yours.</span>'</span></font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Nah.</span>

It didn't matter. She desperately wanted to feel it again, so much so she almost wanted to reach out and grab Kanoa's hand as time seemed to resume, just to feel the firing of the thousands of neurons again. It was something so very painfully overlooked and normal and completely new to her. As her other senses caught up with reality, however, Mary was able to stop herself. 

She was back home, Mom was cooking something, she seemed to breath a sigh of relief as the stove hissed with a stir-fry; <font color=""dimgray""><span class=""bb-i"">'That's Mommy's good little girl, <span class=""bb-s"">save yourself for mother.</span>'</span></font>
<span class=""bb-i"">Shit, dude. That was new.</span>

Time was back! Or, Mary's perception had returned to the same rate of temporal perception as it had been moments before the Touch. Kanoa had already gently confiscated the blunt for Mary's vicegrip when she checked back in. Cory, in a display of courage that the Hero of Time himself would envy, slid past Mary. She recognized him, he was one of the hot guys in one or two of her classes-- and the other guy, the one with the eye patch, she recognized him. Because eye patch. Mary couldn't help but laugh a little inside, 'Your mom.' Ha. His expression was priceless.

She deprived them of her focus, though, instead investing all in Kanoa. Mary allowed her expression to become neutral as she observed Kanoa; she moved fluidly, as if rehearsed, and she spoke with a similar practiced elocution, if not slightly unsure. She had put out her blunt. Mary practically hung on each word she said, internalizing the more serious implications, beyond being hexed by a mere brush of hands.

""M-my herbs...""

She still allowed herself to mourn the loss of her herbal perfection. It had just the right combination of... everything... and it was rolled so pro era.

RIP in pieces, joint-01.

""You didn't even give it a chance to become a roach..."" She muttered, mere seconds after Kanoa had finished. She became downcast in mourning, lamenting the fact that she didn't have a 40 to pour out for the loss of her kingdom plantae homies. She shook her head, ""Gone too soon...""

For the first time since Big Boss had barged in, her eyes rested upon the crumpled up note. Quickly crouching down, she retrieved it.

<span class=""bb-i"">Huh.</span>

It was odd. It was the same note she had gotten, but different, in a way. It hadn't been doctored. This raised many questions for Mary, this whole experience was beginning to do that. It was curious...

<span class=""bb-i"">""Spooky ghosties, missing people, and bathing in the blood of the beast...""</span>

Mary caught August's looked and returned it with a weak smirk of her own. She returned her attention to the note while August continued to speak. For Mary, it seemed her <span class=""bb-i"">'Maybe'</span> had become a lazy <span class=""bb-i"">'Sure'</span> her interest was piqued, for one reason or another. She listened to Azalea Banks and Witch House, smoked herbs for their Voodoo traits, and hung out in graveyards. This type of creepy shit was right up her alley.

Mary could swear she felt some... energy?

<span class=""bb-i"">Curiouser and curiouser... also fucking silly.</span>

<span class=""bb-i"">""So, on top of all the other questions, where exactly is the spot he went missing from?""</span>

""I think..."" Mary spoke up, in a not quite deadpan voice, ""...I think remember seeing something about it in last week's paper? Like, if that doesn't work we could also just talk to his parents?"" Mary shrugged, pulling off her headphones in the process, ""I'm not..."" she pulled out another blunt, now known as joint-02, ""I'm not exactly sure what I am? In regards to seeing the ghosts I visit at the graveyard..."" She lit the blunt, ""I know I don't have any special ability. But like..."" Her glare went from August and the newly formed club to Kanoa, ""I've always felt this darkness, like this really intense presence-- it's been eating away at me for as long as I can remember, just present, growing inside and outside around me, and...""

""And..."" Mary's voice began to crack, her eyes held glimmers of genuine fear, and for the first time since she had entered the room, her voice carried a sincerity with it, ""It wants control. Absolute control. Of me and the direction my life goes in. And I'm so scared of it, it wants me. It wants me and it wants to kill me. And I am so scared of death by this thing."" She allowed herself to be completely vulnerable to this group of strangers, ""They... It... I don't know, but it's always just out of my view, just enough to stay hidden in my smoke. My Mom gets mad if I talk about it, and I can't talk to anyone else about it..."" Mary sighed in closing. She felt a relief at getting that all out. She felt a certain catharsis.

Mary took advantage of the silence to begin puffing out more purple smoke. 

""Anyway,"" She started again, ""This does seem like the pilot episode of some 90's sitcom about a ragtag group of kids who solve fringe crimes. Or something. I'm in. Unless you guys are racists. I don't fuck with racists."" She had already begun pacing around the room again, as she stopped, she blew a stream of smoke on Jackson.

""What? It's laced with lavender. It helps purify the body and remove bad spirits from the air! <span class=""bb-b"">You're welcome!</span>""</div>"

He shut the door to the teacher faculty lounge behind him. He rubbed his head, yawning in the process. 

""Relax, you only feel that way because you're so tired,"" said a girl from behind. ""Not only that, you were up for most of last night going about town."" The girl was Ennis Bowers. Her cousin, the sleep depraved boy, was Morgan Bowers. Both of them are cousins who recently just moved to Oakenheim. The reason for their visit to the faculty office after school was just to see if they were getting accustomed to everything. The teachers here were kind to them, more than likely because they were in unfamiliar territory with nothing but each other. Now that that business was finished, it was on to the next. The two received an invitation to join a club. A club that would deal with the occult and supernatural. Whoever made the invitation knew that the two cousins were aware of supernatural dealing. Morgan pulled his invitation out of his back pocket to double check the room number, and the pair promptly made their way there, following the sings.

""So, did you manage to actually find something last night? Or was it another bust?"" Ennis had asked.

""Afraid not. Since we're still unfamiliar with this town, I decided not to go to far anyway. Now that it's the weekend, we could probably get more searching done,"" Morgan replied. 

""As long as I don't end up sleeping late tomorrow like you did. I'd <span class=""bb-i"">hate</span> to be woken up by having ice cold water dumped on my head.""

""Sometimes, I seriously hate you."" Morgan shivered, thinking back to early this morning. He had slept through his alarm, and Ennis, getting impatient and wanting breakfast, thought it would be a terrific idea to dump a bucket of water on him. His bed, soaked. The floor beneath the bed, soaked. The clothes he was wearing, soaked. Of course, Ennis found the entire thing comical, and acted like she didn't leave a giant mess for him to have to clean up. With how much water she used, it wouldn't be a surprise if he had to buy a new mattress. All while thinking about it, he sneezed. Now he swore he was going to catch a cold. 

""On a more serious note, do you think that boy who disappeared is linked to the occurrences?"" Ennis asked, bringing Morgan back to reality.

""Yeah, I believe so,"" he answered. ""Normally when someone disappears like that, you think professional kidnapping, or maybe they just ran away from home and told no one about it. But with what's going on in this town, there definitely has to be a connection to the two."" 

""Perhaps you're right,"" Ennis sighed. ""Still, it wouldn't hurt to be optimistic and hope he just ran away for a bit."" She had a point. People up and disappearing when the paranormal was involved never ended well. At least, from what the two were told by their family. The reasons as to why he was taken, the endless possibilities worried the two, and they hoped soon they would be able to find some clue as to his whereabouts. Morgan yawned once more. After their conversation, the duo arrived at room 12C. The door was wide open, with several students inside from a glance, it seemed like whatever this was had already started. Ennis walked into the room ahead of Morgan, and he paused for a few more seconds to yawn once more. After all this was over, he just wanted to go home and nap. Perhaps that would be the last time he would walk around an unfamiliar town late at night. The blonde then made his way into the room, scanning everyone that was currently present. The two knew not a single soul inside this room. Sometimes it sucked being the new people.

""Hello there,"" spoke Ennis. ""We are here about the invitation that we both received. This is the correct room, I assume?""</div>"

The sound of August hitting the ground snapping him back to attention with a loud thud. He made to help her up but she was already back on her feet in short order so he relaxed back into his chair. He agreed in principle with what she said, though there was a hint of passive aggressiveness to her words that bugged him. But she raised a valid point as well. Trust could only exist on equal terms. Maxwell had more or less revealed everything that he currently knew about the nature of his situation. He had told them of his doubt in regard to his own power. Secrets could only create distance and with distance came mistrust. Could he trust anyone here to watch his back? Maybe. Certainly some more than others.

Mary's speech came as something of a surprise. She revealed herself on a deeply emotional level. That could make a person feel vulnerable. He certainly couldn't do that in front of strangers. Did that mean she trusted everyone here, or was it something else? He started to feel sorry for her. He might have even made a conscious effort to like her had she not blown a smoke plume at Jackson. <span class=""bb-b"">“It's also a disgusting habit, keep it to yourself,”</span> he said in genuine annoyance. He sighed heavily and shook his head. Together Mary and August had raised an interesting point.

Where had the boy disappeared? When exactly had he disappeared? What about the leafs?<span class=""bb-b"">“The leafs, you said they come from deeper into the forest right? Leafs are pretty distinctive right, their shape and patterns? What I mean is it might be a good place to start looking.”</span> Maxwell got to his feet and walked past the group toward the opening through which the light shone weakly into the room. He was not a leader and had no intention of becoming one, that was clearly Kanoa's role. For that reason he turned his head and addressed her directly. <span class=""bb-b"">“The leafs may be important. Either the culprit, if there is one, left them there when the kid went missing or the kid left them there himself. Either situation implies something a little different. Did the culprit come from the woods looking for him or was he followed? Mary's right, we should ask the parents if he had been camping recently or anything like that. Could be they have nothing to do with this at all.”</span> He paused and stared at Kanoa for a moment. <span class=""bb-b"">“You're the boss, what do you think we should do?”</span> he asked stoically.</div>"

Each time a new student piped up, his face sunk further into his hand for support. '<span class=""bb-i"">This was a mistake</span>' he thought to himself, sighing and sitting back up straight again, this time carefully resting his hands on behind him, focusing on not deleting any more of the table. Thankfully, both hands rested on the varnished wood without issue, letting Cory relax a little bit in his posture. Once more Cory is lost in the conversation, not paying particular attention to the words of his comrades, but rather their appearances. 

Maintaining a look of <a href=""http://www.movieactors.com/photos-stars/colin-ferrell-in-bruges-39.jpg"">barely masked confusion and regret</a>, Cory's gaze lulls from one person to the next. '<span class=""bb-i"">Jesus, this ain't my crowd..</span>' he thought again, continuing to judge the classroom's population as those kids who sat in the back of the class, ate lunch in the hallway, and generally didn't get out much. However with a quick clearing of the throat, Cory forces his mind from such thoughts, '<span class=""bb-i"">Maybe they're nice people, what do I know, they could be uh.. I mean, she's alright looking</span>' he thought to himself once more, his eyes focusing briefly on Raven for a moment before deciding to himself that her paleness was a bit much for his tastes. 

In the end, Cory decides to pay attention once more, catching Maxwell's final judgement. Following the boy's gaze, he redirects his attention to Kanoa, ready to hear her plan of action.</div>"

Though that might be due to her smoking habit. When she blew the lavender scented smoke into his face, he didn't really mind. It reminded him of happier times, like when he went hiking in Yosemite a couple years back. It had been one of, if not the best days of his life, even if he almost broke his leg about 5 times that trip.

""Um, Mary right? Is this weed, or something else, and could I try some?"" His voice was still rather quiet, and he was still feeling rather nervous, but having Mary reveal that about herself made Jackson feel less at odds with her. Jackson then turned to Maxwell, chuckling slightly at his reprimand. ""Don't worry about me, Maxwell, I'm from California, so I'm used to a little smoke now and then. Have never done it myself because I never felt the need. Now I do, so it's no big deal to me."" He was used to a whole lot more than 'just a little' due to Jackson's sister being one of the biggest stoners he'd ever known. Thing was, she was also a published author of a series of semi-popular mystery novels, so maybe she had a reason to be. Jackson turned to look at the new arrivals, recognizing them as the newer kids. They had shown up a week after he had enrolled and that's all he knew about them. He gave them both a small wave, wondering what thebfuture had in store for this group. . . and ignored Aphosis' claims that they would all die horribly. Aphosis was always easier to ignore when Jackson was either in some natural setting, or when he was surrounded by the smell of nature. In fact, he always felt better in the great outdoors, and only recently did he think it was more than just a simple love of the outdoors.</div>"

He looked right as her as he said it, with what she could swear was a glare digging into her like daggers shot out of a cannon. He must have noticed how intense his glare was, for he looked away quickly. She couldn't help but chuckle, he seemed to be pretty bad at hiding his emotions, or perhaps expressing them. She flipped out her notebook once more, though this time she jotted things down with a red pencil.

The next person to accept her proposal was Raven, Kanoa nodded and scribbled. Raven didn't seem to have what she could call a fierce determination, if she were to venture a guess, it would be pure curiosity that drove the doll-faced girl to join. ""Sooner than you think, though not as soon as you're likely hoping, Raven."" Kanoa answered with a cheeky grin.

Kanoa's over-sized bow quaked as Jackson yelled, she slowly turned her head to him as he shot questions at her. Another member added to the party. Her already lazy eyes seemed to slouch even lower at him. ""I appreciate that you're so willing to help, Jackson, but you need to remain calm. I have a plan of action, and it doesn't involve going into this rashly, alright?"" She said, speaking with a soft tone. She hoped he would keep his cool in the future, she didn't want to deal with any... rouge variables in her plans.

Her eyes shifted to August, who couldn't have been pantomiming an inner conundrum more accurately if she tried. She swiftly decided to join, somehow slipping off the table and falling to the floor. Kanoa scribbled <span class=""bb-i"">Autumn</span> down in her notebook along with the other team names, she almost hoped the red head would display more clumsiness in order to justify the nickname. Before Kanoa could answer August's question, Mary spoke.

This was the first time she had ever heard Mary speak without her signature sarcastic tone, and because of this Kanoa was inclined to listen intently. She was telling them all something quite close to her, something that apparently had been literally eating away at her. And she had never told anyone else about this, just what kind of weight had she been carrying alone? Now that she thought about it, many of them here were dealing with problems of their own. Mary in particular seemed to have developed her own ways of coping, as evident by her attitude and penchant for mysterious drugs.

Maxwell spoke again, this time giving his own insight into the investigation. Kanoa smiled and tapped him on the shoulder with her notebook. ""Why look at you, thinking all logically."" She shoved the notebook in her skirt pocket. ""He vanished from his home, his room, I believe. And as for the leaf..."" She pulled out a long, oval leaf, and held it up for all to see. ""It's from a rare tree, however they are common deep in the forest..."" Kanoa tilted her head past Maxwell to see two people enter.

""Ah, the Bowers twins... um, cousins, nice of you to arrive unfashionably late."" She walked over to them and introduced herself, and took the liberty of introducing them to everyone in the room as well. ""Ennis, Morgan, I have a feeling you're here for the same reason I decided to send out those invitations. Two Naturals showing up right when the town starts to become off the wall? I don't believe in coincidences. So, you'll be joining us, got it? Excellent."" Kanoa nodded and turned to the rest of her 'club.' ""I think I've covered enough for today..."" She murmured, ruffling her curly hair. ""Any questions before we adjourn? We'll be meeting at the children's park by the old abandoned fire-station tomorrow. It's the weekend, so getting there a little after daybreak shouldn't be a problem.""</div>"

The emotions weren't fake. Mary had opened up something very deep and personal about herself. Looks like August's jab had hit something. Maybe she had been a little mean, none of them seemed particularly bad. Still, joining this little group without knowing SOMETHING about the others would have been downright stupid. The redhead quirked a brow, eyes flicking up to the light again. Her initial assumption was right, Mary was far more than just a simple druggy. Interesting. August could imagine the emotions this group would leave behind in the classroom. Then Mary blew smoke into Jackson's face. Though, the boy seemed to like it. Masochist? She could already imagine some form of BDSM between the uncaring Mistress Mary and the begging Slave Jackson. She quirked her mouth at the thought, then flushed slightly at the thought of Mary in leather. Then Kanoa...then Orion. Better tuck those visuals away for a rainy day. Quickly tuning into Maxwell's conversation at the last minute, the logic side of her brain reared up, smothering the lustful romantic within.

""Not to punch holes into the plan or anything, but you're suggesting asking some very emotionally fragile people to put some faith in a group of kids they've never met. We'd need to be extremely careful about approaching his parents, especially if all we have to go on is 'We think a ghost did it.' I mean, their kid is missing, has been for awhile. Most missing persons cases are dropped after...what was it, three days? They've probably been told by several people that he'll never be found, and then we just come out of nowhere asking about their kid and talking about ghosts? They could think we're making fun of them. But I'll go with what the rest of you guys think is a good idea.""

The redhead looked at the leaf. Several thoughts went through her head. Maybe the leaf had some residual emotions left on it? The room most likely would, though getting in without breaking and entering would be a...unique...task. Her logical side had kicked in. A supernatural entity was quite a leap of logic. And how did Kanoa get the leaf in the first place? How could cousins be twins? August blinked at the Bowers for a moment before her train of thought barreled back into full gear. Kanoa was wrapping things up. August tugged slightly at the collar of her sweater, chewing her lower lip in thought for a moment.

""Can I see the leaf? I mean, I may be able to get some kind of read off it. Fear, happiness, sorrow. Maybe he left to kill himself, maybe he ran off with some secret lover from a rival family. Maybe he was kidnapped, but if it was a powerful emotion, I might be able to sense something off the leaf.""

How Kanoa had gotten the leaf could remain a mystery, August wasn't too interested in that. At the moment, she was thinking of this like an electrical problem. Look at the symptoms, start simple, then get complex. If the boy left of his own free will, there would be an emotion that suggested that. Relief, apprehension, even acceptance. If he was taken forcefully, fear, sorrow, or anger would be present. August adjusted her glasses. Trying to read the leaf here would be silly. She'd need to try it in her room, where she'd notice the emotional change.

""I can bring it back tomorrow, unless you'd rather hold onto it. Either way, meeting up tomorrow is fine by me.""</div>"

""Lil Ugly Mane was disgusting, no one gave him shit about it."" was Mary's reflexive reply. Maxwell went on to raise a good point however-- a point Mary would have thought good had she not been preoccupied. With Jackson, specifically. Her face <span class=""bb-i"">almost</span> showed an emotion other than soul draining disinterest at Jackson asking about her burning botanical cocktail. It appeared she'd only expose her authentic self when discussing something heavy, like otherworldly, trans-spacetime-dimensional horrordark nightmare emptiness beings preying on her plump virgin soul. Although the slight smug smirk that appeared on her face did have a hint of genuine feeling behind it, she was surprised Jackson was being this bold, he seemed kinda mousy. She sat next to him, preparing her speech;

""Weed is for scrubs, Jackson."" She held the still burning spliff between them, as if observing the perfect avenue of art and science, ""Twice ground damiana flowers and wild lettuce, naturally grown and cultivated, of course; they work together to make a way calmer high, you'll feel the electric relaxation, but it doesn't make you a fucking idiot like with cannabis. It's also technically legal."" She took a deep breath, exhaling with force.

""I throw in some tea for flavor, you know, usually just some spare Earl Grey, or whatever I have lying around. The caffeine helps keep it from making you too sleepy, so that's cool."" She looked to the front to see if she had missed anything from the rest of the group, before continuing her righteous delivery of knowledge, ""Damiana's sweet and spicey, so it makes for a good aromatic blaze, but it can easily overpower the palate without something besides the lettuce and tea to temper it."" 

""That's where the the lavender comes in. It's the perfect counterbalance to the tea's flavor and the damiana's incense spice, it doesn't really contribute to the actual physical high, it's more just an aesthetic change to the smoke, and flavor balancing... and, I still don't know if this is true, like, I got it from American Horror Story, but like I said, apparently burning lavender helps to clear the air and body of bad spirits, or at least shut them up while. I think it works, I lace all my blunts with it, and I soak the rolling paper in a lavender extract."" She regarded her creation fondly for a second, ""This is kinda my jam-- and I guess also my ghost repellant?"" She shrugged, passing it off to the now boy, now educated on <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> dank purp. She savored the slight brush against his hand as she stood up. 2nd time she had touched a person today-- that was a new record. Try it-- might help you out with whatever weird shit it is you got going on.""

It appeared the meeting was more or less over? Mary had missed a bit in her rant to Jackson, but at least she managed to peer pressure a classmate into smoking! Instilling smoke fetishes was an important Janicot family tradition.

Mary prided herself on her priorities. 

""Yep!"" She spoke immediately after August, already halfway out the door, ""Meeting at park, talking to parents about their murdered kid, leaves or whatever-- see you tomorrow.""</div>"

Only eyes casually flickered to <font color=""#ff4000"">Red’s</font> tumble, the only reaction the pony tailed student had to offer— conclusively the student had not hurt herself so all was well, except for the bonding comment which felt like a partial jab toward her direction. Briefly she stuck out her pierced tongue at <font color=""#ff4000"">Red</font> when she was not looking. <span class=""bb-i"">'Take that'</span> she proudly thought though it was <font color=""#be81f7"">Pixie</font> who caused Raven to pull away from her daydreams further.

<font color=""#be81f7"">Pixie's</font> facial expression and the intonation of her voice had changed to a more relatable one. As she spoke of darkness and her mother Raven mildly eyed the room for reactions. Interesting how the rebellious one bowed so swiftly. Perceiving a look of pity in some of the student’s eyes she wondered if they would begin to interlock hands and sing kumbaya. To be able to divulge inner demons so easily…was there something wrong with Raven not to do so? She began to question herself and felt unsettled. Already some of the members were beginning to relate to one another, open up, and connect. She felt just as out of place here as she did in the ‘real world’. Was it, no…could it be--envy? <span class=""bb-i"">‘Ew, what a disgusting emotion’</span> she internally thought in repulsion. Nothing wrong with being alone, secretly wallowing in despair but did she really want to? No…

Whether he liked it or not Raven was unable to avoid throwing <font color=""#088a85"">Corey</font> another curious look. It was such a curse to be beautiful, and stares were the price he had to pay. She had received gawks for a different reason, looking like a living doll did draw some unwarranted gazes. Perhaps if she had blond hair and blue eyes she would already have a boyfriend by now or maybe if she just tried a wee bit harder. There were little advantages to being an introvert. She knew nothing about wooing a potential mate but <span class=""bb-i"">‘the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach’</span> quote did come to mind…even though it was anatomically correct to go center bypassing the sternum and costal cartilages. Would he like red velvet cupcakes or maybe a steak? Grilling was not a strong suit of hers so cupcakes would have to suffice, she would bring some tomorrow and find out. Check. 

Two more students suddenly entered the room and by this time Raven’s excitement for the evening had reached its peak. She nodded in their direction offering a welcoming smile but was weary from all the back and forth conversations nay bickering. Fingers began creating braids among her pony tails as two different discussions were exchanged. One on the subject of weed, which was perfectly acceptable in Ravens eyes. It was natural when not laced and held healing properties for cancer patients and people dealing with chronic pain. It helped people but <font color=""#be81f7"">Pixie</font> referred to its users as scrubs.  Raven quirked a brow toward the master herbalists direction but remained silent, letting her carry on with her expertise to the innocent <font color=""#1fb1c3"">Jackson</font>. 

With all that aside <font color=""#a901db"">Kanoa</font> revealed the mysterious leaf and set a date for tomorrow to meet up. The meeting was adjourned and tomorrow would start another interesting day. While watching Red and Pixie retreat Raven decided to head home too but stopped before reaching the door. A thumb was placed against her bottom lip in thought for a moment before she daintily turned to face the president of the occult club. She wished for the others to have already left before speaking her mind but they were doddeling, and time was of the essence. 

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#a901db"">""Kanoa...""</font></span> Raven began speaking in a soft-spoken tone, a sincerity she had not yet shared to the group before. <span class=""bb-b"">“It isn’t my place to say but--I think the student’s parents would be overwhelmed if we all decided to ask them questions at once.”</span> She did not want to blatantly suggest splitting up but hopefully the violet eyed beauty would get the hint. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“I would not mind speaking to them. It’s the least I can do.”</span> It was the only thing she could do in hindsight though it could cause some controversy among the others--but what else was she good for here? Should the government find out about her little trick they would surely use her to retrieve information from insurgents and the like. She was a torture device on steroids and making people talk was her specialty, well, besides creating pretty yet bland baked goods. 

Torturing these parents was not on the agenda, exactly. She could sense their pain and if they did not feel any for their missing child—perhaps they were involved? She could also subtly twist what pain was there enough so they would share something. There were many ways to gain information besides bringing pain to them physically. Venerable minds were the easiest to bend.  

<span class=""bb-b"">“Just, think about it and tell me your answer tomorrow. Kay?”</span> Raven lightly smiled before exiting the room. If one were observant enough they could depict a tinge of true sadness behind those full eyes of hers. Whatever ounce was there she made vanish in an instant because she was quite good at concealing her emotions and fibbing after all. <font color=""#ff4000"">Red</font> would most likely be the one to oust her first but Raven had a feeling the flame hued girl would pay little mind, as she was more invested in other things it seemed—luckily.</div>"

He could already feel ittaking affectnas all the anxiety and stress he has felt for a month seemed to just disappear. He could hear Aphosis shouting something at him from inside his mind, but it was as faint and indecipherable as the whispering of the wind. Taking another drag, Jackson leaned back in his chair, his hoid falling down as he blew another stream into the air. ""Wow, you know your stuff, this. . . this feels even better than I thought it would. I haven't felt this calm and worry free in over a month. Thank you Mary, but I think I'm going to need learn how to make these myself. Think you could teach me, oh wise master of dank."" Jackson's voice was a bit louder and a lot more confident then it had been before, and his body language was a lot looser and more relaxed than before. ""Actually, if you'll excuse me a second."" 

Jackson reached behind him and into his backpack, quickly pulling out an orange pill bottle, and a rather large one at that. He then got up and walked over to the trash can, unscrewing the lid and dumping all of the pills, soon followed by him throwing down the bottle itself. ""Good-bye, ineffective depression meds, your side-effects and uselessness will not be missed."" Jackson chuckled a bit before walking back to Mary, taking his seat as he took an especially long drag, holding the smoke in for probably a minute and a half before he let it out, coughing and gagging a bit as he did so. ""Okay, that wasn't smart.""

He looked up as Raven was starting to leave, and gave a wave good-bye, ""Later Raven, and thanks for the cupcakes, they wr-ere delicious. Maybe we can talk more tomortow, okay?"" Jackson decided he liked Raven, as well as Mary, August, and the rest of the people here. Except for the guy with an eyepatch. He was a dick, an arrogant asshole who needed ti be taken down a peg. . . or maybe 3. <span class=""bb-i"">'I wonder if he'd freak out if I used Aphosis' arm on him. . . nah, too risky, but it'd probably be funny.'</span> Jackson let out another chuckle, this one sounding a bit more sinister than the rest, however.

""Oh, and I promise to keep calm from now on Kanoa, scout's honor."" Jackson made a quick salute to their leader, before taking his last drag before passing it back to Mary, in case she wanted it back, letting the smoke come out the sides of his mouth this time.</div>"

""You want to see if you can sense anything from it, huh..."" She twirled the leaf around by the stem, turning it into a green blur. Before she responded to her request, she thought about what she said about the boy's parents. ""We won't mention anything about this being a supernatural occurrence, people only believe what they can see, after all..."" Her eyes softened at the sight of the spinning leaf, it made a slight sound as it spun through the air, a sound that appeared a mystical orange to her eyes. She wished people could see what she saw.

Raven suddenly spoke, surprising her. She had expected the girl to leave by now, instead she was volunteering to speak to the missing boy's parents on her own. There was an overwhelming amount of probity to her tone of voice, so much so that Kanoa almost felt as if she were begging. Raven didn't want an answer now, apparently she believed Kanoa would need to think about it. After Raven left, she stopped spinning the leaf and handed it to August. Only a second after August took the leaf, it ignited in an orange flame and vanished. 

""Fascinating, I had a feeling this was the case."" Kanoa mused to herself. ""We won't get much out of the parents, if we're dealing with what I think we are, speaking to them may lead us in the wrong direction, if anything."" She said, taking a deep breath. She wasn't sure how this would all work out, being a leader was new to her, and while she's dealt with a few oddities in her life, she had never been in danger.

Jackson, who had apparently given into peer pressure in record time, called out to her and promised to be on his best behavior. ""Are you sure that's a promise you're capable of keeping? You may be fine, but what about what's inside of you? Try to understand that first."" She said, hoping he wouldn't feel as though she were lecturing to him. ""I'll see you all tomorrow, I have some preparations to make.""

<div class=""bb-center"">_____</div>

It was still early in the morning, around 8:12 to be precise. Kanoa was seated on a swing, gently rocking herself forward and backwards. Her attire was both fitting and nonsensical. She wore black boots, and a black and blue school uniform. Her skirt was reasonably lengthy, though she also had on a pair of shorts underneath it. Her shirt had long sleeves, and was lined with black fur. Her 'Hiking Gear' she called it. She looked at the forest in front of her, it was dense, full of tall trees that made the forest floor shady and dim. Her boots skidded on the gravel and she stopped. She rested her elbows on her knees, and interlocked her fingers beneath her nose. She gazed at the treetops, waiting for her club to arrive.</div>"

This petite figure wore a knee length Lolita <a href=""http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1582i39&amp;s=8#.VO_L4_nF_go"" rel=""nofollow"">coat</a> with the hood lined in faux fur covering curled shoulder length tresses. Raven’s skin was sensitive to sunlight and she would rather wear a hood than stand with a parasol, though that wouldn’t look so bad--just peculiar. The back of this charming coat was corseted with the bottom flared like a dress, which hid her baby doll style dress. Feet wore matching Lolita styled boots that came up to her calves, and laced to the top with a cute bow.  

Her head rose, bold hues not watching the ground any long as she saw Kanoa on the swing and smiled since they both wore fur today. She chose the other swing beside the violet eyed one but first placed the cupcake container on the panic table. Inside today’s goody canister held red velvet cupcakes especially made with care for <font color=""#088a85"">Corey</font>. She had taste tested these ones and they were not too bad much better than yesterday’s batch but were still missing that--oomph.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Good morning President.”</span> She said pleasantly before fidgeting with long fingernails. <span class=""bb-b"">“Did you…Did you think about my proposition yesterday?”</span> Feeling hesitant to ask she took in the scenery, admiring the beauty nature naturally contained. If only she could spend more time outdoors in the quiet she would not have to worry about accidentally hurting people. There were many thoughts that plagued her mind last night, the majority of time had been spent curled up on the built in reading nook her bedroom had facing a similar forest. </div>"

As he walked, his phone played Jethro Tull through his earbuds, encouraging to bob his head to the beat as he travelled. Despite being unfamiliar with the artist, Cory found it catchy enough to let his mind wander as he made the journey. His mind dwelled on yesterday, imagining the fantastical powers that his classmates might possess. He thought of the golden age superheroes, but soon dismissed these ideas, convincing himself that his new friends would more likely have powers as unremarkable as his. 

Almost in time with thinking about his ability, a long line of nothingness had drawn across the chain link fence which he'd been touching while walking. Cory removed his hand quickly, squeezing it with his other as he stopped to look at the damage done. A long line, about 8 feet long and one foot wide, was made across the tall fence that separated the sidewalk from the parking lot on the other side of the chain. Sighing, Cory picked up the pace, hoping no one witnessed his destruction of public property. 

After a few more minutes of walking, Cory finally reached the designated meeting spot, immediately spotting the girl from yesterday, the darkness of her outfit contrasting not only with her alabaster skin, but also the blanket of snow (Not sure what the weather is like, void this bit if it's not snowy) that coated the area. Approaching, Cory gave the gothic cupcake girl a nod 'hello' before looking to Kanoa and reenacting his previous gesture, this time speaking. 

""Am I early?"" he asks, typically not one of the first to arrive to these occasions.</div>"

In fact he would rather it had just been Kanoa. He had questions that he had wanted to ask and would have been far more comfortable asking them without others in earshot. As it was two others had already arrived by the time he did. For a moment he considered asking regardless but ultimately decided against it. As for Kanoa he was still not entirely sure what to make of her. Clearly she was idealistic to some extent, curious as well and clearly eccentric. But beyond that she was still something of an unknown to Maxwell. As of yesterday she knew more about them than they knew about her. Which brought his attention to her two current companions.

Their names were Cory and Raven. In truth he had offered these two little thought since yesterday. It was that not neither stood out as it were, in fact the Raven girl seemed to be something of a Gothic Lolita with a doll complex. She was not harsh on the eyes either if he was honest. Though with that said there was something about her that put him a little on edge. Cory by contrast was dressed somewhat plainly in an aviator style jacket and a brown scarf. Not that Maxwell was one to comment in that regard, wearing more or less the same style of clothing that he always did, a hooded jacket, a shirt and cargo pants. The only real difference was the addition of decent hiking boots suitable for the days activities. As was almost customary for him his hood was up and his hands buried deeply into his jacket pockets.

Unwillingly to interrupt the flow of their conversation Maxwell simply nodded in greeting and found a wall to lean against as he waited for the rest to start arriving, staring into the forest with his trademark look of constant irritation.</div>"

""<span class=""bb-i"">Chasin’ for that paper and you see me on that race--What, what,</span>"" Mary took a sip from the still steaming Starbucks cup in her hands at the lyrical break, ""<span class=""bb-i"">tell her I be goin’ first,</span>"" This was her third cup this morning. She'd needed to walk to this obscure sketchy playground from her house several miles away, and she'd passed several coffeehouses on the journey, ""<span class=""bb-i"">I be gon’ first and they put me in a hearse, oh,</span>"" She hadn't been given much choice, when Mary had asked her mother for a ride, the elder Miss Janicot had just kind of hissed at her, it was weird.

""<span class=""bb-i"">One big room, full of bad bitches, no,</span>"" the morning streets of Oakenheim were empty, ""<span class=""bb-i"">One big room and it’s full of mad bitches,</span>"" the air was gray, not with fog, but with... the residual heat leaving things, due to the coolness of the atmosphere, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Lana, Lana, tell them what it is,</span>"" Mary's eyes observed her surroundings, she took in cracked asphalt streets, the buildings and businesses that hadn't yet woken were to her right, vines covered the fence to the playground, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Tell ‘em that you doin’ it, you mean to do it big,</span>"" she traced her hands along the cold dark green kudzu, it was amazing how resilient arrowroot could be in the cold... ""<span class=""bb-i"">I said, one big room, full of bad bitches, no it’s,</span>"" with each word, the white wisps of breathing left her mouth, like she was losing part of her soul, ""<span class=""bb-i"">One big room and it’s full of mad bitches, I said,</span>"" Mary took another sip of the coffee, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Lana, Lana, tell them what it is,</span>"" She wondered if Kanoa was right, was there some inherent evil involving the unseen here? ""<span class=""bb-i"">Tell ‘em when you do it that you only do it big,</span>"" Did it even matter?

<span class=""bb-i"">Has anything ever?</span>

""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, uh, catch me ridin’ like a bitch,</span>"" Mary's mind wandered as she walked, speaking the words in a deadpan trance, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Got the six forty-five, catch me ridin’ with my bitch,</span>"" She supposed it DIDN'T matter if there were spooky spirits about or anything, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, long hair, Lana, that’s my bitch,</span>"" But it was something of a dick move of them to be actively fucking with people on the level of kidnapping or murder, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, You can tell by the swagger and the lips, uh,</span>"" Yeah. She slowly shook her head, taking another sip of the coffee. Kidnapping wasn't cool, Mary didn't abide.

""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, uh, catch me ridin’ like a bitch,</span>"" Mary shrugged, she increased her pace, she was close to some of the others, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Got the six forty-five, catch me ridin’ with my bitch,</span>"" She could feel something in her body telling her to turn around an go home, was it just her being shy? ""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, long hair, Lana, that’s my bitch,</span>"" Nah. It was that... <span class=""bb-i"">thing</span>. She'd told everyone about it... for <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> reason. Mostly just a personal relief, it was nice to talk about it-- and she'd wanted to, she really hadn't needed much prodding. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Uh, You can tell by the swagger and the lips, uh,</span>"" Mary had emotions! Now no one would respect her as the stoic badass that she knew she could be.

Mary sighed internally.

Mary pulled down her headphones as the song came to an end, as much as she'd have loved to A$AP and Del Rey drone on about whatever it was that song was about, she had other matters to attend to. Mary turned the corner at a gap in the foliage covered fence to make her way to where a few of the others had gathered. Kanoa, Maxwell, Raven, and what's-his-face. 

<span class=""bb-i"">The pretty guy.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Yeah, that was probably it.</span>

Did... did Kanoa dress exclusively in school uniforms? Mary had never paid <span class=""bb-i"">much</span> attention to it, as she'd never found herself looking this closely at her before, but now that she actually thought of it, she really couldn't recall an instance where Kanoa didn't resemble some quirky Asian schoolgirl. Maybe that's what she was going for. Raven and What's-his-face were close to Kanoa, Maxwell was nearby, observing things, probably scowling at them, too. Everyone seemed to be dressed to impress-- to contrast Mary was practically the same as they have seen her yesterday. She wasn't even sure if she'd changed out of her black jeans... fresh was the gray tank top with it's <a href=""http://skreened.com/render-product/g/y/a/gyaomtoamobcnaqnqpar/image.american-apparel-unisex-tank.athletic-grey.w460h520b3z1.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">faded logo</a>-- different from the black one she'd worn yesterday-- and a <a href=""http://www.cindyraschke.com/images/skeletonjacket.jpg"" rel=""nofollow"">post ironic leather jacket</a> that, she felt, was fitting for her joining the High school junior X-files team. It protected her arms from the cold. Although, honestly, the low temperature didn't bother her. 

Mary yawned as she made her way over to the three, the flawless Raven, the... <span class=""bb-i"">intelligent</span> Kanoa and uhh... What's-his-face. What bothered Mary most was how damn early in the morning all of this was. She took another sip of her coffee as she approached, just in time to hear What's-his-pretty-face say something predictable. Mary glared, ""No. You're late. We already solved the crime without your help. You should scoot off back to bed.""</div>"
20005,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-03-02 11:54:00,Piercing Light,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">There wasn't much wind today, but there was just enough to blow the tips of the treetops to and fro. As she waited, Kanoa's eyes watched the leaves dance. She could faintly hear the sound of the leaves rattle in the wind from a distance, it caused a subtle hint of blue to mingle with the green treetops, making it appear as if waves were gently moving through them. This was the natural state of things, at least it was how she saw it, so when she saw the blues in front of her suddenly turn orange she had to blink a few times in disbelief. The wind picked up ever so slightly, and as the leaves wavered it looked as if the forest was on fire. She looked down to the forest floor, and between the green moss and assorted flora she saw a small red creature staring at her, it was a red fox. Staring may be an understatement, the fox's amber eyes were piercing straight into her and looking even further. 

Kanoa's violet eyes narrowed, and she glared back. The Fox's eyes gave her a nagging curiosity and feeling of unjustified desire. She had no reason to, but she wanted to follow the fox, she felt as if she had an obligation to. She gripped the chains of the swing and prepared to stand, but a voice snapped her out of her trance. The fox ran off, and the orange hues changed back to blue. 

Kanoa turned her head to see Raven, she was the first to arrive this time, she really was eager. She had brought more cupcakes, which she may have been more excited for if she wasn't mindful of her diet. If Raven did this often Kanoa would need to incorporate a workout schedule for them all. ""I did, actually."" She said, standing up and moving behind Raven. She pushed her back, causing her to swing forward. She continued lightly pushing her, not really wondering if it was even a bother. 

""Probably thought about it more than I needed to, considering we aren't going to talk to the missing boy's parents at all."" Kanoa pressed her lips tightly together and made a humming noise, if her brain were an engine, that would be the sound it made when it was on the fritz. ""Sorry I guess, you wanted to do something useful, right? Don't worry about it, I have a feeling you'll get another chance soon."" As she kept pushing Raven, Cory arrived, simply asking if he was late. If it weren't for the desk in the club room with a hole in it, Kanoa would swear that Cory was just an average guy. He hadn't said much at all, and he seemed as if he thought he didn't belong here.

Mary and Maxwell soon arrived, the later of which silently greeting them and standing off to the side. Kanoa almost wished she had a camera with her, he looked like he belonged on the cover of an album for a band that sung about how crappy life was. Mary gave a sarcastic remark to Cory's question, sarcasm seemed to be Mary's own personal dialect.

""Hello everyone."" She greeted them with a lazy smile, still pushing Raven. She wasn't looking at what she was doing, and now the pale skinned girl was soaring back and forth, perhaps a bit too high at this point. ""It's still a theory at this point, but that leaf burning up when August touched it leads me to believe that we're dealing with a spirit, a shapeshifting one, possibly. This could be potentially dangerous I'll have you know, so be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary... or anything excessively ordinary."" Kanoa hummed again. ""I'd like to wait until the others get here, but feel free to ask me anything, and to eat Raven's cupcakes.""</div>"
20006,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-03-02 12:31:00,Spawnling,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Oh good, for a second I was worried I had developed pyro powers.""

August vaulted the fence, her incredibly long braid swaying behind as she landed and trotted over to the group, a black backpack on her shoulders. The pack had two flashlights, a screwdriver and pliers, a heavy hunting knife, a rope, several water bottles, and some granola bars. August had wandered the woods enough to know there were some places light just didn't touch, and it was always better to be prepared and not need something than to need it and not have it. The electric tools were just always with the girl as a matter of habit. Forgoing a heavy sweater, this time she was in a simple blue long sleeve thermal with ripped black jeans and a pair of running shoes. A bright pink beanie with what appeared to be over-sized dog ears sewn to the sides sat atop the mountain of hair as she gave a yawn, rubbing her eyes behind a pair of aviator sunglasses. Her regular glasses were in the backpack as well, just in case. August trumped over to the slide, walking up it easily before sitting at the top and giving a wave to the assembled group. Everyone seemed to have dressed up for anything BUT a romp through the woods. Except Mary, though she doubted that was so much preparation and more just not really caring too much.

""Shape shifter, cool.""

August's mind was already barreling forward, the logic train had no brakes. Why did her touch cause it to burst into flames but not Kanoa's? What about fire made it more likely to be a shapeshifter? Could the shifter turn into anything? Could it turn into one of them? Could it turn into fire or water and burn or drown them? The red head quirked her lips for a second before settling on one to ask Kanoa, who appeared to be enjoying pushing the doll on the swing. Cuuute. In a horror movie sort of way.

""So can this thing turn into one of us or is it limited? Cause if it can turn into one of us, we may want like...a call sign to show we're real. Like military, you know. I say Flash, you say Thunder. And we may want to think it up before we go somewhere it could hear us.""

August really didn't want to be put in a situation where she'd need to find out which Cory was real and which Cory needed to be pushed off a cliff or stabbed or ghost busted or whatever they were going to do. Come to think of it, Cory would probably be easy to distinguish between a shape shifter...he could just blast a hole in a tree to prove it. The others...not so much. Maybe August would be the one who'd need to prove who she was. The thought gave her a slight sinking in her stomach. She didn't really trust any of the others here to not just remove both her and the shifter out of laziness or some misguided sense of efficiency. Oof, not dying today would be awesome thank you.</div>"

He was also wearing some tough-looking jeans, a hooded flannel jacket with a thermal long sleeve underneath it, some hiking boots, and a special kind of watch that seemed to double as a compass. He also had knives, three rather large hunting knives on a holster around his waist, all sheathed, and an ornate thowing knife in hand, being flipped over and over in his hand with a practiced ease, the naked silver blade gleaming in the light of dawn. ""If it can shapeshift, then it can be anywhere, so watch you should back and stay on guard.""

Jackson groaned slightly, gripping his head in pain, his knife flipping inreasing in frequency as his fristration grew. ""Man, I had the worst sleep last night. I don't have a clue why, but I don't feel rested at all, and I've had a splitting headache since this morning. That aside,, how have you guys been doing?"" Jackson yawned as he rested against a tree, now taking to spinning the knife around in his hands. ""Oh, and good morning.""</div>"

It had been difficult remembering the names of his new ""friends"", if that's even what these people were or would become. There was Kanoa, easy enough to remember, sounds like canoe and is quite unique. Plus, the gregarious girl was also the club's leader, so remembering her name was his priority. His gaze turned to look at Raven, squinting a little to make out the intricacies of her outfit as she flew too and fro on the swingset. It wasn't that difficult for Cory to remember her name either: <span class=""bb-i"">Ravens are black, and Raven wears black</span>. 

After his momentary lapse in focus, Cory returned his attention to the group as Kanoa began to speak. Talk of shapeshifters caused cory to quirk a brow and subtly check the expressions of the rest of the group. It all seemed a little, extraordinary to Cory. Sure, he could create voids of space, but surely that could be explained by a scientist. Perhaps it had something to do with dark matter, or rifts in space time, whatever the case, Cory was convinced that his power was more mundane than the ability to shapeshift. Nevertheless, he retained his silence, hands tucked into his jacket pockets as he listened to the group natter away.</div>"
20009,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-03-02 23:07:00,Leviathan,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Raven was not used to the interaction but found it quite enjoyable. Perhaps they could be friends, like true friends instead of acquaintances. Maybe she could invite her over for tea and they could go on a walk or whatever it was that friends do for fun. Kanoa was beginning to leave a very good impression in Raven’s mind, something that was equally frightening. She had originally cared very little about what these students thought, she could do as she pleased and leave whenever it suited her. There was no contract signed and there were other’s to fill her spot but things were getting interesting, even though not much about this mystery had unfolded yet. It was the curiosity of it all that really gripped her and made her stay--what could be, what would be…how this would all turn out. It had killed cats, curiosity that is.

Unfortunately she did not receive the answer she was hoping for but Violet, Raven’s nickname for her, must have sensed Raven’s sincere motive and self-conciseness.  Perhaps on a later date, should the occasion arise…she had a feeling Violet was trying to console her just in case she ended up being the hopeless black sheep of the group of super friends. Teeth began to nibble on her glossy bottom lip in thought; she was wallowing in self-pity again like a puppy deprived of a treat. Pathetic. The motion from the swing softened the blow, and the height along with the wind whisking through black curled tresses—since her hood had fallen down.  

Raven’s posture straightened up further as Cory came into view, her hues glistening from glee. She was not sure why he had captured her interest because he was dreadfully quiet--painfully so. Raven wondered how anyone could be quieter than herself. It wasn’t like she did not have things to say, she choose not to but Cory…he severely restrained himself. Buried deep within something dwelled there, waiting to burst out—or not.  Maybe they were more alike than she had originally thought besides appearances. He was no doubt gorgeous to anyone’s eyes but she was an acquired taste. The dark Lolita was not sure they would even mesh well given their personalities or go beyond a simple hello; he seemed uninterested in almost—everything. 

Following his arrival strode Maxwell. Someone she had not focused on much yesterday. He had a dominating aura, so he was not easily missed--she just had not centered her soul attention on the man. Prying vast eyes away from Cory she examined the one with fascinating grey hair. Grey was a color she was quite fond of so that was a good start. Before finishing her observations she thought it best to stop. Basing her opinions on the appearances of others was not the grandest idea, however. Raven had made a note to stop being so physically judgmental, it wasn’t like she had never been on the receiving end of a cruel perception but it was a difficult trait to alter. 

Pixie made her presence known in the form of a sarcastic quip per usual and Red leisurely sauntered catching up to the group, braid swinging behind like a tail. Topic for today: Shapeshifting, as mentioned by Violet and investigated by Red. Questions were ablaze from the red head that resembled Sherlock Holmes at this moment. Raven could picture a deerstalker cap upon her head and smoke bellowing out of briar pipe. This made her smile for a moment before beginning to listen more intently at the conversation.  Call signs were a bit much but Jackson made acknowledgment to keep a sharp eye out. This Shapeshifter was probably more intelligent than they were giving it credit for. It had a plan already, a goal, and wouldn’t stop until it was accomplished. This was all just leading up to the grand finale. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“When do we explore the woods?”</span> Raven kindly asked, her voice trailing while gliding through the air. They wouldn’t find what they were looking for by asking questions. They needed to search for more clues. Everything would eventually fall into place but they needed to act.</div>"

It was him that had caused the leaf to fall. He dared not look to see if it was true. If the tree was already withered with the season than there was no way of knowing for certain if he was the one inflicting such a sapping of life or not. And if the tree was withered only in his direction then it was all but certain that it was him causing it. Either way he could not rule himself out as the cause. Had he even been here long enough to realistically be the cause? He noticed Kanoa looking at him and turned his gaze to the side. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Hey,”</span> he replied stoically and listened to her explanation of the previous days events. The thought occurred to him that it might be worth trying the same thing with the leafs that fell from the plants nearby whenever he lingered near them. Would it be possible for a similarly telling reading to be performed? But that question aside he had a concern. <span class=""bb-b"">“And why does it lead you to believe that?”</span> he asked Kanoa with earnest interest. Already one of Raven's blandly appealing cupcakes hovered in the air to his side as if held by an invisible hand. He made no attempt to eat it as he listened to the newly arrived August. He agreed with her.

<span class=""bb-b"">“That might work, assuming that whatever it is isn't watching us right at this very moment. Hell it could it already be here. One of us. We need something a little more...personal. Or unique. Something that can't easily be imitated,”</span> he said as he trailed off into a moment of silent consideration. Something that was unique to him. Did he have such a thing? He grimaced in the realization that he did indeed have such a thing. He had reservations about voicing his idea aloud but it seemed a worthwhile enough idea with how little he knew for certain.

<span class=""bb-b"">“What I mean is, I have this power, right? To move things with thought alone. But it's not unique, or at least I'm guessing its not. I'm willing to bet that a great many of those beasties in that brain of yours have the ability to do something similar, if not in fact than at least in appearance,”</span> he said motioning toward Kanoa. He used his power to snatch a leaf from the air. There was still a little life in it yet, which would serve to prove his point.<span class=""bb-b"">“I didn't mention this before but since the accident plants die really quickly around me, as if I'm draining the life out of them.”</span> As he voiced his idea the already partially withered leaf started to turn completely brown as it was held aloft as if eager to prove his words true. <span class=""bb-b"">“So if you guys ever think that I've been replaced you know what to look for.”</span></div>"

She was glad they had eased into this 'weirdness' so easily, not many people could hear the word shapeshifter and start to think of countermeasures right away. August suggested they use call signs, Kanoa stared at the dog ears on her hat. That hat was criminally adorable, she needed a hat like that. She blinked and her brain reminded her that it was trying to work here. Call signs were a good idea, however, there was a problem with them in this situation. Jackson alluded to said problem, It could in fact be anywhere, they couldn't be sure that nothing was listening to them at this very moment. 'Getting closer...' She thought to herself, there was a simple solution to this issue, and she wondered if any of them had thought of it. 

Raven spoke, causing her to jump slightly as she turned to her and realized she was about a foot away from launching the girl off the swing. She stopped pushing the lolita and put her hands in her pockets. ""We can leave now actually, no need to wait any longer."" She said. There was still a few members missing, but she had a feeling she would run into them later. Kanoa stepped out of the playground's wood chip flooring just as Maxwell spoke. She gazed quizzically at the leaf in his hand as it quickly shriveled. Now here was something she wasn't so familiar with. The eerie feeling she got from him made much more sense now. An aura that was both cold and inviting, what else could that be but death? She would need to look into his condition later, that was for sure.

""Huh, that explains why the gardening club has been so upset lately... But uh, I have a simpler method. If we ever get separated and run into each other, just say where our meeting room is. It's something we all know, so it doesn't have to be said right now."" Nodding her head in satisfaction, Kanoa turned towards the forest. ""Well, let's go.""

Stepping under the trees it wasn't long before they were all under a blanket of shade, though thankfully it was not dark enough to require a flashlight. ""Say..."" Kanoa said to the group as she leaped over a mossy log. ""Have any of you heard the stories of the mythical Kitsune?""</div>"

""They'tre fox spirits that have blue fire, rale human form, and can ma-"" Jackson stopped talking as a realization donned on him. ""We're chasing a kitsune, aren't we."" He asked, though his tone implied there was no real need to answer that question. ""Okay, we're chasing a magic, fire flinging fox, but why did it kidnap the guy we're looking for. I'm not to familiar with it, just no about it from some animes I've watched.""

Jackson looked down at his silver bladed dagger, wonderung if it be any use against Kitsune. European stories say it's good for harming evil, but who's to say it'd work on the japanese spirit. That tnought brought another question to mind. ""Hey, what would a Japanese spirit be doing all the way here in America, anyway? It seems a bit far away from home.""

'You'd be surprised how easy it is to get lost when you're a spirit boy, the world becomes a whole lot smaller then.' Aphosis said, whispering into Jackson mond siuggestions on where on each person he shpuld plant the knife. Jackson did his best to tune him out, but it was a bit hard considering his headache and lack of sleep.</div>"

This was like, hypnotic, or something. Mary watched, mesmerized, as Kanoa pushed Raven on the swing... higher and higher. It was like watching this anime character and like... this perfect porcelain doll swinging on a pendulum. Aside from the occasional sip of coffee, or the bite of a cupcake, Mary ignored the world in favor of the simplicity of the swinging woman. Her eyes went from left to right with each crest and drop and her head followed, like she was watching the ball at a tennis match. It wasn't just that the women were pleasant to watch either, although that was certainly part of the appeal, there was something deeply appealing about the mere motion being displayed. On like, a spiritual level.

If Mary was less tired, or perhaps more high, she'd certainly have something more profound and poetic to say about it than <span class=""bb-i"">'The pretty girl goes up and down!'</span>--

As it stood though, she was kind of hypnotized by it. So much so she hadn't even heard what the others were saying. So, then, when the swinging stopped and Kanoa began walking towards the forest, Mary was completely lost. She merely followed behind the group as it took on something of a natural formation in a daze. August and Jackson seemed ready to camp a week in the hunt for the Sasquatch.

Mary, meanwhile, trailed behind and took another sip of her coffee.

<span class=""bb-i"">'Where are you going to put the cup when you're done with it?'</span>

Mary stepped over a ridge that appeared to be a snake's burrow, she looked down at her cup with wide eyes.

<span class=""bb-i"">FUCK</span>

That was a really good question.

Mary took another sip of the brown liquid ambrosia as they made their way further into the shade. Corey was being irrelevant, August was probably suffering withdrawal symptoms from a lack of technology, Raven was too good for the eyes of this forest, and so was Maxwell, apparently. Kanoa and Jackson opened up a dialogue about Japanese foxes.

""It's probably just some weeabo furry spirit. Like, I bet it can't even speak Japanese, it's just some ghost that watched too much anime and wants to prove itself to the real OG Kitsunes in glorious Nippon."" Another sip.

Mary stepped carefully over the mossy log. Looking up she noted how truly dark the forest was, despite the time of day, it seemed so familiar... ""Wait."" Mary stopped in her tracks, tilting her head to looked to Kanoa, ""Where are we going even? Like there can't only be one tree with that kind of special leaf or whatever..."" Placing a hand on her waist, Mary lowered her voice to that of a mother accusing a child of stealing from the cookie jar, ""Kanoa! Are going to slaughter us all and feast on our nubile and ripe teen bodies?"" Another sip of coffee, ""If so can you kill me last? I want to see how Raven tastes.""

<span class=""bb-i"">Christ I'm creepy.</span>

Yep.</div>"

Cory thought to himself, his brow furrowing and his lips adopting a cringe as the conversation moved onto Japan, Anime, and a manner of other weird things. 

Yet he was already immersed in this world of strangeness, why not continue onwards? And so, Cory forced himself into the conversation, hands still bundled in his pockets as he walked.

""I can't say I really know much about Kit-soons, but uh, I watched Dragon Ball Z when I was little, that was anime, wasn't it?"" he offered, not entirely sure of how else he could contribute to the conversation which incrementally inched further and further from anything he could talk confidently about. Before he could decide on what else to add to the discussion, Mary thankfully took the reigns of the discussion, leading it further into the realm of absurdity. Her comment on furry weeb spirits flew confidently over Cory's head, though he was thankful all the same that he no longer needed to talk. 

""What a weird bunch.."" he thought, trailing his fingers across the bark of the trees he passed, leaving lines of blank space.</div>"

August said cheerfully as she walked by Cory, lips quirked as she idly listened to everyone tromping around. Ignoring the fallacy of the spirit deciding to randomly eavesdrop on a group of kids it happened to come across at that exact section at the edge of the forest and decided specifically to listen for ways it could usurp their, up until now, unknown plan to stop it *which wasn't totally unfeasible* ignoring the fact that August had prepared for a hike and Jackson had prepared for a week long military assassination mission and managed to once again put her on edge by his garbled paranoia and the sheer amount of knives he had brought, ignoring that Mary was not only higher than balls judging by her wide eyed wonderment at her coffee cup, but also drooling over Raven's existence, ignoring Raven's drool over Cory, the boy who was too good for everything, ignoring Maxwell's silence after coming up with his own way of proving himself to others, and ignoring Kanoa staring at her beanie like a hound eyeballing a chunk of beef...it was quite pleasant here. Not enough things to tinker with though...she fiddled with her cellphone in it's pocket as she looked around, pouting slightly at the lack of things she could focus her thoughts on. Mary's objection caught her attention.

""If Kanoa is sticking with her usual methods here, I imagine she has a destination in mind, or something to work off of, but is not telling us in order to see if we can figure it out ourselves, or perhaps to see our reactions to how we handle being in a situation with little information about it at all.""

Logic. So much logic. This was starting to become a downer.

""Or, you know. The nubile feasting thing or something. Pretty sure I'd taste like burned jerky.""

Boring...bored. Lethargy? A spiral of emotions, old and faded, flew out across the trees. Hikers, wanderers, animals, lovers, it was all here. Painted in vivid swathes of invisible color. She could taste every nervous touch stolen behind a tree. Hear every fright from the scared prey hiding from the predator. Smell the giddiness from hikers previous. It was almost too much. She took a deep breathe for a moment, clearing her head and focusing on her own emotions, lest they flew away and were replaced. Her brother's old knife wasn't helping much, apparently it had been in the room when he lost his virginity. Gross...boring. Emotions, too many. Too many faltering whimsies. After awhile, August just found everyone to be so...bland. She had experienced so much with her new gift, she had felt so many beautiful, horrible, wondrous moments stolen from the memory of others. She was one of the few people who could probably understand anyone, no matter the situation. And it was put behind a wall of logic, a calculating mind that saw repetition as inefficiency, that saw habit as a lack of ingenuity, and thought of the daily routine as a wire that needed to be snipped. The ones around her so far were...static at best. Her sharp green eyes flitted from form to form, mouth still quirked, not really listening to the talks about...foxes and fire.

Jackson. The broken robot, gutted and rewired by the fumbling hands of a spirit.
Mary. A faded painting, covered in soot from the smoke the painter used to hide the strokes.
Kanoa. A cracked camera that never took the picture you wanted.
Cory. The ken doll with knives for hands.
Raven. A doll with a cracked face. Hard to tell if the smile is nice or malicious.
Maxwell. A radio that played nothing but the odd crackle.

Then there was herself. The computer that was overheating, the computer with too many inputs and not enough output. A tired machine that wanted desperately to upgrade itself every second, and kept losing bits of itself in the process. Was she any better? Probably not. Hard to tell lately. How much of her emotions were hers and how much was infection by outside sources? She'd think herself to death one of these days. Mental overload. Loneliness? Possibly. Empathy to the point where she was unable to tell if what she was feeling was real or just something left behind by a pissy preteen that touched the same doorknob. Suicidal cause she touched an angst ridden sweater...homocidal cause the bus driver had a bad marriage. Lonely cause the boy leaned against her locker too long. Lustful cause the cheerleader who sat in her seat forgot her underwear in the locker room. The worst part was how it all...lingered.

August began to wish she had brought her DS. She fiddled with her cellphone again.</div>"

I know that you think all this is a bunch of hooey-""

""I don't-""

""Daniel Atticus Herne you may have worked overtime but that doesn't give you an excuse to lie to me.""

""Sorry aunt Debbie.""

The old woman put her hands on the boy's cheeks and looked at him, her glare turning to a wide smile in a flash. ""You're a good boy Danny, though you shouldn't lie even if it is to spare my feelings. It will only hurt more in the end."" Daniel looked down at the woman half his size. Despite it being 11:00 p.m. in the dead of winter she seemed comfortable in her jean shorts and sun blouse, the only thing remotely close to proper attire being a grey cardigan covered in cat hair. The younger sister of his now past mother it seemed a bit strange to see her so bright eyed and cheerful when tomorrow was... 

Danny shook the looming clouds away. ""You're right aunt Debbie. I'll try harder next time.""

""That's all I ask."" she said softly as she pulled him into a hug with a strength in-proportionate to her leaving Danny to flounder for a moment. Letting go after what was an uncomfortably long time (Danny suspected she was trying use him as a shield against the wind) she finally let go of him only to poke him in the chest. ""And stop worrying about me! You have got to stop acting like you’re already dead! Live your life! go out; be with friends! Enrich your aura! Be happy! She said while unlocking the door directly next to the store saying as she entered, ""Be safe driving home dear, and make sure your father is too. You know how he is this time of the year..."" 

""Goodnight aunt Debbie."" Daniel said tersely as he clambered into his red and white pick up. He didn't like being short with her but she had a tendency to ramble on and if the strange girl he had met earlier that day was any indication, he'd need as much rest as he could get tomorrow. waiting for the sound of her locking the door before turning on the engine.
<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJBEVgnND6k"" rel=""nofollow"">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJBEVgnND6k</a>
<span class=""bb-i"">Yeah. Drive safe. Who knows what might happen around here.</span> Thought Daniel as he drove his lumbering beast of a truck over the winding hills of downtown Oakenheim. Passing by rustic store fronts, Daniel followed the string of incandescent lights looking towards the horizon where he could make out the silhouette of the old lighthouse that was only an empty shell of its supposed former glory. The thing was turned into a historical monument long before Daniel had moved here and was just another in a long string of attempts by the Oakenheim board of tourism to bring relevance to the sea-side town. According to his dad it was due to the fact that even though the town was practically as old as the country it often was forgotten in place of places like Roanoke and Salem. Still it was better than the tourist shops that would sell merchandise based around local legends of cryptids and ghosts. Most of the time the stores would bring people much weirder than anything the locals could boast about.

It wasn't that Daniel didn't believe in the supernatural as he had tried to explain to his aunt. It was just that if there were such things as angels or demons, he didn't think that having a crystal underneath your pillow would bring some or stave off others. If there was one thing that Daniel believed in for sure, it was that man made his own miracles. ""Suppose that'd make me a Diest."" murmured as he pulled into his driveway only now realizing he had already gone the twelve miles to his house. Turning off the engine Daniel rested his chin on the steering wheel and looked at the place he called home for the past decade. An old farmhouse that had at some point been painted a pale turquoise over the years have worn down on the old two story leaving its coat bleached and chipped. Luckily his dad had recently fixed the shutters so they wouldn't squeak leaving it a little less like a locale from a slasher flick. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Man, if I'm this out of it how bad is Dad?</span>

Getting out his truck Daniel quickly made his way onto the porch and into the (unlocked?) house. When he turned immediately to the right he saw in the den his dad asleep in his recliner in front of the T.V.- a half-empty bottle of beer still in his hand his head lulled back as he let out a deafening snore. Looking over at the television Daniel saw it was playing <span class=""bb-u"">Plan 9 From Outer Space.</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Okay, <span class=""bb-b"">that</span>bad.</span>

Prying the bottle from his hand Danny patted his father's bearded face. ""Dad...Dad....Dad!"" said at first gingerly raising it a decibel or so until his father awoke with a start. ""HOO WHA- what? Oh hey there Danny I was wondering when you'd get home..."" his father said as he was already starting to fall back asleep. Putting an arm over his shoulder Danny helped him up saying, ""C'mon dad you need to get some sleep can't have the sheriff looking like he's fresh from the drunk tank."" 

""I'll have you know I'm musch better than any of those dejhenerates...I'm a dejhenerate wish <span class=""bb-i"">you for a son!</span>"" the older Herne replied his words progressively becoming more and more slurred. The younger one wrinkled his nose as the stench of alcohol spewed from his father's mouth. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Guess he hasn't been sticking to beer only.</span> Daniel thought as the two made their way up the stairs before stating, ""Either way, if you're going to be pants-less you're going to have to be in your own bed."" which caused the large man to let loose a larger laugh. Helping his dad into his bed Danny quickly went to the adjacent bathroom and retrieved some pain meds and when he returned he saw that his dad now wrapped up in a comforter was suddenly very quiet. ""That movie was her favorite, you know."" Daniel sat down at the foot of his bed and looked down at his father who somehow looked in his forties and four. ""I remember when I was first chasing after your mother I asked her best friend Peggy Allen to tell me what she liked and she told me movies. And after what felt like months of begging and pleading she finally decided to go on a date with me to an old drive in theater two towns over, where we went to go see it. I remember- I remember afterwards I asked her what she thought of it and she said-'it was the worst movie I have seen and you, Gregory Herne are an idiot with no taste' And you know what she said after that?""

A lump formed in Daniel's throat. ""She said 'if you really sat through such an awful movie just for my sake then you are one dense man, Greg Herne."" 

""And that if I really wanted to impress her I should try again."" Greg Herne finished. For a time they sat there in silence, the only light coming from the dim table lamp that sat next to an alarm clock. Leaning over Daniel kissed his father on the forehead and softly said, ""I miss her too, Dad."" Turning off the bedside lamp Daniel gently closed the door behind him and went to his own room and layed in bed, looking up at the ceiling fan as it lazily spun about. Turning over Danny looked at the picture on his nightstand. In it was a young, clean-shaven man with a small child sitting on his lap, the child himself having a big toothy grin, his eyes hidden beneath a curtain of black bangs, while above the two a woman leaned over the man, her slender arms encircling the man to rest her hands on the boy's shoulders; her own face beaming with pride her brownish-red hair falling in gentle waves that framed her face. But perhaps what was her most striking feature were those eyes that twinkled, those eyes that had seemed to know no burden. 

Feeling the tears well up in his own, Daniel turn his back to the picture to see that the envelope he had received earlier that day sticking out of his backpack. <span class=""bb-i"">To those that are aware of the unseen and unexplained, you are not alone. Strange things have been happening in this town, and while many refuse to accept this, or are unable to, we have the opportunity to do something about it. If you wish to know more, then please meet me in room 12C. I will understand if you ignore this message.</span>

At first Danny had thought it a prank or some strange marketing scheme for the plethora of tourist traps that were in town, but still his gut told him to check it out. When he swung by the room he saw some douche-nozzle screaming at a group of misanthropes leaving him to nope the fuck out of there before he got caught up in the drama. Still, his aunt's words pervaded his thoughts. Maybe she was right. Maybe he was just going through the motions of life. Reaching for his phone he went through his contact list. In his brief glance of the class room he had seen Kanoa's signature class uniform was among the people. She might have been a bit of a space case but she was on the up-and-up, and that favor he had done her a few months back hadn't been too bad. If she was part of the group they probably weren't too bad. Or at least knowingly try and scam him. Finally finding her number he simply texted her, ""Your offer still stand?""

                                          *************************************************
<span class=""bb-i"">Go on. They're all there you won't be the first one. And that weird snobby guy isn't there. If you don't fit in with the other pariahs its's no big deal, things will go back to how things are. Just put yourself out there. For aunt Debra.</span>

Danny let out a sigh. It's not like he could back out now. He slammed his hands on the steering wheel. ""Damn it,"" he breathed, ""Damn it, damn it damn it!"" Collecting himself he flipped down the vanity mirror and gave himself the once over. A collared shirt with a simple gray, button up sweater over it, a pair of dark khaki pants and a navy blue duffle coat, while his hands were covered by thin, wool gloves that stopped at the second knuckles. 

<span class=""bb-i"">It will have to do</span>

Grabbing his canvas backpack from the passenger seat Danny adjusted the handle of the khukri that he brought so it wouldn't be poking him in the face as he slung it over his shoulder. While it hadn't been directly stated it seemed that for whatever reason they were going out to the woods and would be out for a long time.

 <span class=""bb-i"">so he decided to bring a tool that was able to chop through an adult pig in a single swing?</span>

""Because if we need wood or to cut through brush. I got other things like a thermos and lighter and a first aid kit... And trail mix!"" He argued. With himself. ""Well shit, if I'm going to go crazy I might as well do it with a live studio audience."" <span class=""bb-i"">Good, good. Get all the stupid out of your system nice and early.</span> Lurching out of his old rust bucket, Danny quickly locked the door and strode across the street to them. Giving Kanoa a nod Danny took note of those who filled the child's play area with a note of dread. 

August Battaglia: Danny's dad must have pulled her in for messing with telephone lines at least half a dozen times. 

John Maxwell: Daniel could remember as clear as crystal when the entire school was buzzing when he tried to off himself. 

Corey Warner?: As far as Danny knew, Corey was a jock through and through. Though according to mutual friends he wasn't on the soccer team anymore. Must have messed him up worse than he had heard

The others he hadn't recognized and as far as he was concerned the ones he knew the name of weren't even aware of his existence. As for the other three? Danny had to make a physical effort to not to pull out his khukri then and there. It wasn't that they were doing anything wrong. In fact, these three were the archetypes of who Danny had assumed would attend this little shin-dig. But something in his gut told him that they were bad news. It was only then that he had realized that he had been standing at the edge of the park with his hand halfway to his bag. Trying to pass off the fact that his first instinct was to purge half the group he turned his raised hand into a small wave and casually said, ""Howdy folks. I'm Daniel Herne. I uh, sort of missed the meeting yesterday. I was told we were going to go for a hike in the woods or something?""

<span class=""bb-i"">Live life she says. 

Go make friends she says.

I swear if I end up dead by the end of the day I'm going to kill Aunt Debbie.</span></div>"

Orion grimaced as on lance of light lined up with his closed eye, penetrating the serenity of his ebon dream. Orion blinked. He took in a deep breath. His chest felt tight. Sitting up he blinked in the haze. He must have fallen asleep. He had been looking for...something. Right? 

Orion pushed up his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose. His head hurt, the blood felt sluggish in the veins around his skull. He was in the library. He had been looking for a book. That made the most sense. That was what people came to the library for. Well, that and to make out between periods. He was alone so making out would be a little more difficult to manage. A book seemed more likely. But what book? Why couldn't he remember that.

Orion got up from one of the green, hard plastic chair near the windows. His back ached. How long had he been sleeping in the chair? He looked around the common area between the shelves. Empty tables. Silence. What time was it? Was the school closed? Did the angry, little, librarian troll miss him sleeping?

Orion scratched his head, long fingers working into the frizzy mass of hair. He hoped the doors would open from the inside. He looked around at the beige bookshelves. He should probably get what he came for in any case. Be a waste of whatever trouble it would be to get out of here if he didn't. Walking along the shelves he idly scanned the book spines, hoping to job his memory.

Fiction. No. He wasn't looking for Steven King or Stephenie Meyer...why the hell did the school alphabetize authors by their first name? Somewhere around here he knew some of the stoners hid their pot. Behind the shelf filled with the inexplicable number of Hardy Boys copies?

Orion paused. Something was under his foot. It felt flat and warm under the sole of his shoe...like lights embedded in the floor of the gym pool. But he could feel it pulse. Like a heartbeat. Orion looked down at his feet. He slid one large shoe back and looked at what was underneath it.

There was a symbol in the carpet. No. That wasn't quite right. There was a hole in the carpet. A symbol shaped hole. The carpet around it was blackened and burned. The hole was perfectly cut in the symbol it made. The symbol of...of...Orion began to sweat. Had the room always been this cold. The hole went straight through the floor. There should be a classroom under this spot, right? Then why did the hole go so much deeper than that. There was nothing in the hole. Orion could tell that. It was so dark in the hole, blindingly dark, but he could tell that. There was nothing at all. 

Orion bent down onto his hands and knees over the hole. The symbol shaped hole in the floor. His breath came in shuttering gasps. His pupils tightened. Something worse than fear coiled around his heart. No. There was something in the hole. He could hear a sound coming out of it. He put his ear against the hole to listen. He heard it. It was so quiet it was deafening. Orion reeled. His hands shot up, clutching at his ears. His teeth clenched. His eyes closed. His head split. He felt something wet and warm running through his fingers and down his cheeks. Sweat poured off of him. It was so cold. A copy of <span class=""bb-i"">A Brief History of Time</span> on the shelf next to him burst into flame. Orion tried to stand, his legs slide out from under him and he collapsed hard against the shelf. The floor was quaking with stillness. Orion tried to crawl away, half supported by the bookshelf. The cheap paint on it boiled away, the metal beneath bubbled and burned. Orion's hands were slick with blood. More dripped from his ears. The temperature in the library plunged. The books burned. Orion fell forward on his stomach, the unmoving carpet shredding the skin on his cheek, stomach, and hands. He stretched out his arms to grab the edge of the shelf and pull himself further, freezing, molten metal dribbled down his grasping fingers mixing with his blood. Orion tried to scream, gagging on his own breath.

He opened his eyes. The darkness from the burning books had engulfed the room. He could make out every detail in the perfect darkness. There was something in that perfect darkness from the hole. The symbol shaped hole. The hole in the world. there was something in the hole. It was Orion.

Orion stopped struggling. His body frenzied with inaction. His calmed into fever. He hadn't been looking for a book. He knew what the symbol the hole made was.

It was the symbol for-

Orion looked around the empty playground. No one was here. He was late. A consequence of his perennial procrastination. He dropped his backpack into the little rubber chips.

Orion sniffed at the cold evening air. This kind of sucked. He sat on the end of the slide, elbow on knee, chin in palm. Maybe it was better. He had hoped the invitation would give him some clue to his 'condition'. What he had heard was a cavalcade of supernatural nonsense that meant almost nothing to him. Everyone had some disparate condition. Some supernal connection. Most of them had some nifty superpowers out of the deal. None of it called to Orion's circumstances. Near death experiences, lose, witchcraft. Terrible. Terrific. But Orion could feel at his core, the same core that he could feel being gnawed away from the inside, that none of it was like him. Maybe it was just the prerogative of his youth but not one of them knew just what he was going through. So he hadn't said anything. He listened. He wondered. He faded to the background as they had filed out of the club room. 

Maybe he should have spoken up. Opened up. Coulda shoulda woulda. But the more they spoke the worse he could feel the throbbing in that space between his head and heart. He could feel the yawning abyss gap wider with their words. Maybe he should have just abandoned it entirely. Maybe he ought not to have come at all. Maybe he subconsciously knew that and showed up late with a purpose. Maybe he could just let it go, returned to his normal, mundane life. The symbols would stop, the light would cease. The cool, comforting banality of existence could cover his raw and ragged spirit and all of this would have just been a matter of fancy.

Orion stood up and sighed. He looked off towards the treeline. Shoulda. Coulda. Woulda.

""Welcome to the club, Danny boy,"" words like melted chocolate lapped at the shoreline of Daniel's introduction. Orion slide around to the side of Herne, slipping one long arm over the sheriff kid's shoulders, the other sliding his pack strap higher on his shoulder. He turned a languid eye and a soft smile towards the rest of the group. ""So what terrible decisions did ya'll make without me?""</div>"

""The same reason there are people other than Native Americans in this country, Jackson. Not all spirits are confined to a certain location. They can travel as they please, and much more quickly than we can in most cases..."" Kanoa remained quiet as Mary and Cory spoke. She couldn't help but laugh, Mary's snarky attitude was starting to get to her. ""I think it'd be best if you all forget most of what you've seen in T.V shows, I don't want you getting the wrong ideas."" She said, walking over to a tree. She leaned down to take a look at the tree's roots, there were bite marks on them. She took out her notebook and jotted the find down. As she scribbled, August spoke on her behalf. <br/><br/>""I have usual methods?"" She mused to herself in an amused tone. She wondered if August believed herself to be that good at understanding how people worked, they hadn't exactly been close up until yesterday, after all. Standing back up, Kanoa cupped her chin and looked deeper into the forest. ""Before Raven arrived, I saw a fox by the forest's edge, it tried to hypnotize me into following it. That must have been how it led the boy away with it, and the leaves... Some spirits require a broad leaf in order to transform. This spirit must have dropped a stock of them that it had with it..."" Kanoa grumbled, as she wasn't positive about the last statement. As she thought things over, Daniel showed up. <br/><br/>He hadn't shown up to the club room the other day for some reason, so she surprised when he sent her a text asking if her offer still stood. She had no reason to refuse him, it wasn't as if the club was on a timed exclusive or anything. ""It's more of a hunting expedition, really."" She said, closing her notebook and putting it away. As if they had come in on the same horse, Orion arrived right behind Daniel. Kanoa scoffed. <br/><br/>""I don't make bad decisions, thank you very much. Try not to be late again, we're hunting a possibly hostile, possibly demonic fox spirit, alright?"" Kanoa turned around and motioned for the others to follow her. ""The fox's home is likely deep in the forest, I'll know it when I see it.""<br/><br/>After about ten minutes of walking Kanoa spotted something among the trees. It appeared to be a structure of some kind, she tried to identify it but it was made out of the same material as the forest and blended in. Upon getting closer she was able to see what it was, it was a cabin home. ""Huh..."" Kanoa walked up to the side of the cabin, the walls appeared to be covered in the bark of Oak trees. She ran a hand over the surface, and knocked on the wood. It was legitimate, and completely impossible. It was almost as if an extremely thick and oddly shaped tree had been grown here, and was then carved into the shape of a cabin. Moss and branches could be seen along the cabin, further driving along it's strange appearance. There were no windows, only a door at the front of the cabin, The door looked as if it had been carved out of redwood, and the handle was smooth round amethyst. Kanoa took a few steps back and looked up, it was a two story cabin as well.  <br/><br/>""Welp, might as well see if anyone's home."" Kanoa said, walking up to the door and turning the knob. The door opened easily enough, and she walked inside. It wasn't dark as she had expected, as there were a few light sources. At the bottom edge of the walls glowing orange mushrooms gave off dim light, and above her head she saw a chandelier hanging from the ceiling by a vine. Verdant vines curled in different directions, and at the tip of each a mystical orange flame burned. She could see an entrance way into another room, but from what she could gather she was currently in the 'living room' There was a couch made of wood, though it was covered with an assortment of pillows that she had to assume were stolen from Oakenheim. There was an assortment of instruments on a redwood table in the corner. A Guitar, a flute, drums, a violin, all likely stolen as well.<br/><br/>""Nice place, I wonder what the rent would be here.""</div>"

For a moment he was sure that he had caught a trace of something in Kanoa's expression when she looked at him but he made little of it.

But if not it might be something worth investigating in his own time. <font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“Right,”</span></font> he responded simply, following after her as she led them into the forest.

His revere was broken when Kanoa asked a surprisingly curious question. <br/><br/><font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“Kitsune?”</span></font> Maxwell said aloud, as if he had never heard of such a thing. In fact the truth was the opposite. He had simply been surprised to hear the word, out here in a forest in the heart of backwater Maine. In truth he actually knew a little about them, the mythology and the origin of the name. His father was a supernatural buff and fiction author to boot after all. He also collected crap like that.

Not until recently anyway. <br/><br/><font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“Really, that's what comes to mind?” </span></font>Maxwell had no words to describe just how creepy Mary had sounded.

Despite himself he actually smiled and laughed to himself. <font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“And what, you really think that if anyone was going to be doing the killing of nubile young teens it would be Kanoa? I can think of much better better candidates,”</span></font> he said with some levity looking directly at Mary. <br/><br/>It then that Kanoa tried to explain the logic behind the reasoning that she was basing her conclusions upon. Maxwell was suddenly a lot less at ease with the whole situation. He had assumed that she was working with something a little more...ironclad than pure speculation. <font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“Tried to hypnotise you, huh?” </span></font>he said with no apparent emotion.

What exactly had he been expecting? Maxwell had to admit that if nothing else the building really fit the bill. Located deep in the forest. Hard to see among the trees. Or was it a tree that looked like a house. It wasn't like he had been expecting something normal like a wood cabin or a tent but still this was something else. He sighed at Kanoa's apparent lack of a sense of danger, yet found himself following immediately after her into the house. House tree? Tree house?<br/><br/>It was dim inside, lit by a glowing fire off to one side of the room, instruments of varying varieties scattered about a table. Clearly someone lived here. The fire suggested that until recently someone had even been here. Or still was here. Yet for some reason he was not as scared as he knew he ought to be. He walked over to the instruments and picked up what he believed to be a violin. He made no attempt to play it and instead turned it over curiously in his hands. Seemed pretty unremarkable. He turned his eyes toward the door way into the next room. <font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“So what do we do now?”</span></font> he asked seriously. </div>"

He got that it moved, by why to Maine of all places. Seems like ab awful long way to go, even if they did use some sort of spiritual transportation. He spared a glance at Orion and some new guy as they came over.<br/><br/>'You should take that knife and-' Aphosis began his usual schtick with torture and death and mutilation, to which Jackson tuned out with a steady train of 'Shut up' thoughts. This kind of thing would terrifying, if he wasn't dealing with it on a near constant basis. He was pretty sure he could watch a grisky chainsaw massacre happen ih front of his eyes, and only be slighty perturbed by it, that was how desensitized to violence he'd become.<br/><br/>""Nothing much Orion, just discussed the likelyhood of Kanoa leading us to our doom, then eating our, how did you put it Mary, 'nubile teen bodies' or something like that. Can someone tell me the hell that even means, nubile that is."" Jackson response was a little harsh in tone, but his lack of sleep, his irritation at having to get up so early(he wasn't a morning person), and dealing with the psycho spirit in his head made him rather grouchy.<br/><br/>(Time skip to Cabin)<br/><br/>""You know, Mary's theroy is a lot less crazy sounding now that we're actually here."" Jackson couldn't help but comment as they approached the cabin, his eyes roaming over the building unimpressedly. He didn't know what he was expecting, but it wasn't this. ""I say-"" He began, only to cut himself off as Aphosis spoke up in his head again.<br/><br/>'What a nice location for such a thing, I say you start eating the one who just arrived, his confusion and fear will mix quite well together, then-'<br/><br/>""Oh my fucking god, will you just shut up already!"" Jackson exclaimed in annoyance as he began to pace around. ""Every second, of every minute, of every day you've been talking non-stop about how to kill people violently, how to torture people brutally, and tell me over and over to kil everyone I meet. At first, this was terrifying,But only now am cI realizing just how fucking annoying you are. Can you please shut and give me just 5 minutes of uninterrupted mental silence."" When he heard no response,he gave a sigh of relief. . . which he quickly swallowed when he remembered he was in front of other people.<br/><br/>""Oh, uh, non of thatnwas directed at you guys it was just, you know."" Jackson tapped his head, but his flocked ti Daniel, the new one here that hadn't been at the classroom, thus missing his demonstration. 'Oh well, I'll explain it to him later if I have to.'<br/><br/>""Soooooooo, we going down the fox-hole or what?""

No point. Kanoa had already changed subject, talking about foxes and hypnotism. The red head began to wonder quite heavily if she had accidentally joined a group of asylum escapees trying to pass as high school students. Hypnotism. August stroked her chin a moment at the concept, giving a quirk of her lips as Maxwell voiced the word in a tone that suggested he was on the same page as the red head. Disbelief. Hypnotism supposedly only worked if the subject was willing to believe it was possible. The idea that it would work without the subject knowing was more subtle mental suggestion, conditioning done on a subconscious level so the subject reacts instinctively, not cognitively. Course, this didn't apply to spirits she supposed. The idea that Kanoa knew the spirit was trying to do so, moments before Raven had arrived, presented several problems. How would she know what had been happening? Was Kanoa naturally resilient to this stuff due to her connection with the spirit world? Why wasn't this brought up sooner? If the spirit could hypnotize, the entire theory that they could take precautions against the shape shifter was flawed. Why bother shifting in the first place? Were they all as resistant the effects? A scary thought popped into her head as she realized that her ability probably would make her more susceptible to mental manipulation. Her empathy and ability to connect to anything or anyone would probably make her a prime target in fact. That was going to be problematic.<br/><br/>August snapped back to reality as she recognized the boy arriving on the scene. Sheriff's son. They had never spoken, mostly cause the few times August had seen him she was either in the back of his dad's police car or being escorted out of the police department by her brother. Still, she smiled and waved, keeping the wave going as Orion showed up and slung an arm around the boy. Maxwell mentioned Mary doing the killing of their little group. August's eyes flicked instead to Jackson.<br/>----------------<br/>August was now positive that Kanoa was withholding information from the rest of them. The red head had wandered this forest multiple times, knowing most of it pretty well. She could easily keep her orientation in it. And in a short ten minute span, Kanoa had somehow found a cabin August had never seen before, and this is definitely one she would have noticed. Either Kanoa was incredibly lucky for having chosen the exact direction to head in the entire forest, or she knew where it was, or at least a general idea of where it was. The redhead hesitated as the group filtered in. First Kanoa, then Maxwell, then-<br/><br/>""Oh my fucking god, will you just shut up already!""<br/><br/>August stared as Jackson blew up on his inner voices. He ranted for a bit, then attempted to play it off like a sneeze. Coming with these people was a mistake...August began to feel a bit of panic creep up on her. And the cabin wasn't any better. Who knew what emotions lay in the building? What could a kidnapping spirit house bring? Would August even be able to comprehend them? And it's victims? Even hypnotized, there had to be emotions of fear, panic. Desperation, loneliness. The idea of walking into such a maelstrom didn't appeal to her. Sprinting away into the forest would probably be wiser. Her eyes flitted to Daniel. Suppose having the sheriff's son here would be a useful alibi if she had to explain why she killed everyone in self defense. August took a breath and entered the cabin. She tightened up instinctively as she felt the creep of foreign emotions...brush her? Her eyes opened. Comfort. That's...all she felt? Really? Nothing else, no other emotion from a shape shifting, kid hypnotizing demon spirit's hidden torture hole past a feeling of comfort and calm?<br/><br/>This was just...eh. Not even worth bringing up really.<br/><br/>""Well that's almost disappointing.""<br/><br/>August muttered as she began to examine the room itself, making careful mental notes to stay on the opposite side of the room as Jackson. The boy's knives were way too close to his hands at all times for her to feel remotely safe around such an unstable creature. At least the cabin's pathetic residual emotions were helping her calm down. Kinda.</div>"

They were like smoke hounds, and Mary had been in enough trouble to know that weekends were no exception for 30+ year old men who liked exerting as much power as the could over young people absolutely helpless to defend themselves in a legal battle. So immediately after leaving Kanoa's kreepy n' kool kidz kroo, Mary had made her way to the nearest girl's room to dispose of the evidence. Jackson, while eager to pollute his lungs, wasn't looking to make roaches, and so he passed it back to her. It did serve as something of an excuse, though. She could just hide out here, calm down after that meeting, collect her thoughts, decompress a little.<br/><br/>She'd need to walk home, she always did.

To people who were complete strangers, no less!<br/><br/>No, those people were even worse than strangers. They were high school classmates-- there was the possibility of gossip, and potential judgements, and there was always the possibility of a snitch calling child services on her mother-- Yet Mary hadn't felt the stress associated with the taboo act of completely exposing oneself to a group of teens hungry for a game of telephone school wide. <br/><br/>It was entirely possible that she didn't enough about what anyone in there thought. Apathy did paint over each action she took. Mary leaned against a sink in the women's room, lazily regarding her reflection in the heavily tagged mirror. <br/><br/>She was shaking.<br/><br/>So it was more than a lack of concern... she was feeling an adrenaline inducing relief. Her mind turned to why she had felt so compelled in that moment to speak, and what it meant for the intense spiritual depression.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">In my infliction<br/>Entrepreneurial condition<br/>Take us to glory<br/>I think about it now</font></a></span></div><br/><br/>Brown eyes bounced off of each other into infinity as Mary tilted her head in the mirror. Her reflection looked sad, or perhaps, reserved? She couldn't quite say, it was obscured by lipstick hearts and expletives and the return of the other smoke. The world slowly began to darken again. A slightly silver filter to experience consciousness through. Honestly, she hadn't noticed it had even gone.<br/><br/>Her eyes widened.<br/><br/>Being close to other people who could perceive... <span class=""bb-i"">whatever</span>... had weakened it. The darkness felt weaker when she was with those losers... when Kanoa touched her... when she explained mary jane alternatives to Jackson. So it couldn't have just been contact with other people, it was those with the ability. That didn't make any... <br/><br/>Mary yawned. The restroom window exposed a lavender sky.

Ideal weather for smoke rings that would contribute to the death of Mother Nature's pristine forest air and plant life.

A brother, but not a son? A hero, apparently, but also Gone and Forgotten? That bit didn't even make any sense. If he was Gone and Forgotten-- HOW did he even have a gravestone?<br/><br/>With a harrumph, Mary turned in the grass and leaned her back against the cool stone. Taking a puff of the herbal remedy, the young girl considered alternatives. Perhaps 'Gone and Forgotten' was just a typo? But that seemed... too easy. Like, who would bury their loved one with an inscription like that unless they really meant it. <br/><br/>He died the same year she was born, which was interesting. And he was... some kind of donor?

But she might have to just awkwardly carry this stupid cup around with her for the rest of this outing! It wasn't like she could pollute! The Otaku Kitsune might get mad!<br/><br/>Right. She needed to focus, on the others, and the matter at hand. The alleviation of that feeling of lack that being near the others provided her with was beginning to get to her, she needed to remember that someone's life might be on the line with this.

As hot as the raspy breath of man and localized only to swirl around her figure. That wasn't painful-- but then, amidst trees as sleek as smoke and a sky as dark as molasses there stood a familiar man. This man stood gaunt, he seemed a mile away, yet he came closer without moving with each blink. He was hairy, messy unorganized hairy-- although he had a neatly styled, eerily perfect crew cut. He was dressed in a suit that, at one point in time, may have been fine, but now, appeared as though it may fall into loose thread if he flexed the wrong muscle. <br/><br/>Perhaps that was the point. <br/><br/>What was most notable about the man, as always, were his dark, hollow eyes, the impossibly wide smile that grew as he approached, and the horns that grew from atop his head. They were like a deer's, and they almost seemed to stretch like a second pair of hands towards her as the man approached. His visage was entirely still as it effortlessly moved through the trees, despite the tumultuous wind that surrounded Mary. The edges of her vision became as dark as the coal trees of this corrupted Oakenheim wood, with each blink the man became closer. She could feel her lavender smoke in the wind.<br/><br/>Mary could hardly move.<br/><br/>Hardly.<br/><br/>She began to walk towards the horned man, even though terror began to fill her heart. Running never seemed to work here.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">I cried myself to sleep last night<br/>And the ghost of Carl<br/>He approached my window<br/>I was hypnotized<br/>I was asked to improvise<br/>On the attitude, the regret<br/>Of a thousand centuries of death</font></a></span></div><br/><br/>He said, ""<font color=""silver"">Quoniam fumus annulos bellum,</font>"" and ran off into the woods like a broken, gray pencil tip rolling across a piece of black paper.<br/><br/>Mary heaved a broken sigh in relief--<br/><br/>Mary turned, the cracking of sticks signaled someone's approach.<br/><br/>--too soon, apparently.<br/><br/>Two voices filled the swirling, smokey air around Mary, each singing a different tune, in different painful pitches about how much of an impure whore she was. She tried yelling out, but couldn't even force a whisper from her throat. She could dry cough silently, though! She fell to her knees in the purple swirl, pressing her hands to her ears in a futile attempt to rid herself of their disparate screams. <br/><br/>Then she could see them. Both of them. The horned man and the pregnant woman. His horns curved and lifted up in the air very, very high, like, taller than the trees high, like higher than she'd need to get to forget this dream, high. He wasn't growing bigger with them, but he hand perfect control of where they went. His hands went up, like some conductor, and Mary felt the wind around her stop as everything went silent. The smoke didn't go-- but that made sense, the lavender vapor was coming from inside her own body-- her own lungs. Vision grew darker still as she stood. Mary focused her attention on the heavily pregnant woman in the dim light in the already melancholia shaded grove. She gave a similar raise of her hands, and the trees seemed to almost move away, revealing a sky darkened entirely by horns.<br/>They maintained that pose, paying no mind to Mary. Were they letting her go?<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">Even with the heart of terror and the superstitious wearer<br/>I am riding all alone, I am writing all alone</font></a></span></div><br/><br/>No.<br/><br/>Mary's eyes shot downward, where this heat made itself known between her legs, it wasn't pleasurable, but hot, like the fire you'd place an iron in. Mary tried screaming out in pain, but all that came was smoke, and through the haze she realized what was happening. The fire spread from her loins to other regions of her body-- contrasted by an impossible freezing sensation where her heart should have been. She was burning from the inside out. The pair walked closer to Mary, the woman began singing and the man manipulated his horns to close in on her, so that she couldn't run even if she could summon the will. They were swirling around her and growing like the wind had.<br/><br/>And then the woman looked at her and smiled this awful, cheshire smile, and in her Mom's voice she sang, ""<font color=""lavender"">Even in my best condition, counting all the superstition, I am hiding all alone, I am running all alone...</font>"" <br/><br/>She tried to yell out again, but couldn't. Mary fell back to the ground as the pain shot through her, she tried moving and that proved futile as well. The man looked down at the weakly squirming girl and he said, ""<font color=""silver"">Mary, you are impure! Mary, you are home...</font>"" <br/><br/>And then she woke up.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">Even in my best condition, counting all the superstition<br/>I am riding all alone, I am running all alone</font></a></span></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">400 Years Ago</span></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Hêlêl,'<br/><br/>'Nmitôgwesna spempik aiian,<br/>sôgmowal negwadji eliwisian,<br/>K'tabaldamwôgan paiômwiji,<br/>kolaldamwôgan likitôgwadji tali kik taôlawi,<br/>tali spemkik.'</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">And we laughed at the beatitudes of a thousand lines<br/>We were asked at the attitudes, they reminded us of death</font></a></span></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Wôkwses,'<br/><br/>'Mômilina nikwôbi pamkisgak nedattaskiskwai abônmena,<br/>ta anhaldamawina n'palalokawôgannawal taôlawi,<br/>niuna ali anhaldamawôak,<br/>ta akwi losalina wnemihodwôganek,<br/>wiji kadniwadaki tôni majigek.<br/>Nialach.'</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">Even with the rest belated, everything is antiquated<br/>Are you writing from the heart, are you writing from the heart?<br/>Even in his heart, the Devil has to know the water level<br/>Are you writing from the heart, are you writing from the heart?</font></a></span></div><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">'Wôkwses Wôkwses,<br/>Hêlêl Wôkwses,'<br/><br/>'Alnôbak ta Wôbanakiak aiian,<br/>Wôkwses wiji ali Miguen n'palal,<br/>Nsôzek tali kik Sanôba aiian,<br/>Nsôzek nikwôbi Pehanem mawôak,<br/>Adah adamah.'<br/><br/>'Wôkwses Wôkwses,<br/>Wôkwses Hêlêl,'</span><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">~~~</div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">The Present</span></div><br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">And I cried myself to sleep last night<br/>For the Earth, and materials, they may sound just right to me</font></a></span></div><br/><br/>After Jackson's outburst, Mary waited a bit before she sought admission into the natural cabiny outcrop. Both out of personal fear, the constant idea in her mind that Kanoa had no idea what she was doing, and that she was seeing something absolutely incredible. Her mouth hung agape at the sight of botanical perfection. Others had decided to hang outside for a bit as well, although, based on their more serious expressions, they had other reasons besides the appreciation of magic and nature in conjunction.<br/><br/>""Well that's almost disappointing."" August declared silently to no one in particular.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">What is?</font>"" Mary murmured in idle response to August's own idle statement. She caught something akin to resignation in August's voice-- but couldn't put aside the absolute wonder in her own. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">THIS THING IS AMAZING!</span><br/><br/>She wandered into the cabin/tree hybrid with wide eyes, it appeared to be the direct result of that unseen supernatural stuff Kanoa had been talking about. Besides the graveyard, Mary had never interacted so directly with stuff like this-- while her experiences had left her open to it all, such things as shape-shifting Japanese faxes and magical house trees were still new to her eyes. She couldn't help but marvel at how perfectly everything was formed... The minute detail, the botanical correctness of the flowers in the room...<br/><br/>Mary couldn't help but let some of that internalized wonder escape onto her face. A wonder that tippled when she saw a table that seemed to grow out the ground. Running over like an excited child, she gently placed the cardboardesque empty Starbucks cup discreetly. Finally relieving her hands of the burden.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i""><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJwraC4p5A"" rel=""nofollow""><font color=""white"">Even with the rest belated, everything is antiquated<br/>Are you writing from the heart, are you writing from the heart?<br/>Even in his heart, the Devil has to know the water level<br/>Are you writing from the heart, are you writing from the heart?</font></a></span></div><br/><br/>The instruments on the table were of secondary concern to her. The table itself was amazing! How had it come about! How did those burning emerald vine curtains work? They seemed to grow out of the Redwood itself, meaning this plant was actually chimeric! Mary wondered if there were other plantae mixed into the genes of this magnificent modeled tree chimera!<br/><br/>She noted her expression was rapidly becoming sanguine and toned her internal enthusiasm down a bit. Tasks were at hand! There was an innocent life here, not one being slowly eaten away at, but a boy who may have already been killed. She did need to retain some focus...<br/><br/><font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“So what do we do now?”</span></font> Maxwell asked, trying to keep the group on task.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">I say we--</font>""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">OhmyGOOOOODDD! The vines aren't just burning, they're converting their own photosynthetic energy back into light!</span><br/><br/>Like a giddy student, Mary ran over to the orange, glowing ends of the vines that seemed to serve as nothing more than a groovy-esque thing that didn't conform to the normal standards of doors. Kneeling down to the point that her eyes were inches away from the mystic burning light, Mary let out an audible '<span class=""bb-i"">sqeee</span>' in excitement.<br/><br/>Then she remembered that she wasn't alone here.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Uh...</font>"" Mary stood and turned, attempting to wipe all the excitement and giddiness off her face before continuing her own sentence, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Sorry... I was saying that, like, we should search for clues or something. It looks like Mr. Fox keeps a lot of stolen shit here, if this is even his magical amazing tree play house at all... So I guess we should, like, look around to see if it is, and if it is, maybe he keeps the kid here... or like, somewhere nearby? I don't know...</font>"" Shrugging, she pointed to Jackson, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Someone should probably stand guard in case whoever owns this place... you know, comes back? I nominate freaking Knives Chow over here.</font>""</div>"

Lets stick with Jackson for now, thank you."" Jackson response was casual enough, but it had an underlying air of frustration. ""Everyone has their weird hobbies, mine are outdoorsmanship and knives.

It's not like I take them to school<span class=""bb-i"">(lie)</span> or have used them on anyone before<span class=""bb-i"">(half-truth)</span>."" <br/><br/>Getting up, he walked around the cabin aimlessly, looking around the cabin a little closer than before. <span class=""bb-i"">'Okay, at second glance this place is pretty cool.

Also, what are we going to do if/when we find him, or if the Kitsune finds us?""<br/><br/>As he finished speaking, he drew another knife to add to the two in the air. He continued doing so for a while, losing himself slightly in the dancing of the blades. He was still paying attention to what was going on, but only just.<br/></div>"

Daniel was used to being at arm's length with the rest of his peers, though even he had to admit that being rejected by the rejects stung a little. Oh well. The day was young and it looked like half these people were in their own little worlds, hell the group looked like it could be the cover of some band called <span class=""bb-i"">Insolent Children</span>, they already had a pint-sized goth. <br/><br/> ""We're hunting a possibly hostile, possibly demonic fox spirit, alright?"" Kanoa turned around and motioned for the others to follow her. ""The fox's home is likely deep in the forest, I'll know it when I see it.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Oh alright. That's all. </span> For the briefest moment Danny had thought that these people were just crazy. It was then he realized that they were- what were they called? Live action role-players. LARPers. Yeah that was it. To be honest Danny himself had always wanted to get into Dungeons and Dragons but in a town like this it was hard to find anyone who'd cop to playing it, even at the friendly neighborhood comic book store. Though he had to wonder, why would people like Corey and Orion be there? While he didn't know much about the former he shared a physics with the latter and while he was a nice enough fellow, it was painfully obvious how much he cared about how others thought of him. Showing up here would be social suicide if the masses found out. Whatever. That was his problem. Sure it was a bit odd, even for him but it was nice to see a group of people who wouldn't give a shit about running around the woods and just having fun unstead of wallowing in pointless drama. Soon the group followed their fearless leader Danny tried to stay near the back of the group, but between the other's shuffling pace and his long legs he quickly abandoned the thought, setting his pace to be right in the middle, behind a girl with a pseudo-pixie cut. Since he had arrived at the park he had tried to place her but it was only until now he had realized that he had seen her every time he went to the graveyard. He had never approached her but had always wondered what she was doing there.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No wonder I didn't recognize her! There's no purple haze around her! She probably thinks that I'm going to try and make a citizen's arrest on her what with pops being a cop. Probably for the best. Last thing we need is a fi- well what do we have here?</span><br/><br/>Arriving at what must be their destination Danny was not perplexed, not just by the cabin and its bark exterior but by the fact that the structure wasn't in a clearing of any kind. ""How could this have gotten here without leave a path from construction? New or not there would certainly be evidence of-"" <br/><br/>""Oh my fucking god, will you just shut up already!"" Jackson exclaimed in annoyance as he began to pace around. ""Every second, of every minute, of every day you've been talking non-stop about how to kill people violently, how to torture people brutally, and tell me over and over to kil everyone I meet. At first, this was terrifying,But only now am cI realizing just how fucking annoying you are. Can you please shut and give me just 5 minutes of uninterrupted mental silence.""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Well then.</span><br/><br/>While Danny was ready to bark right back at him -knife or not- the boy's quick attempts at making amends took the wind out of his sails. <span class=""bb-i"">Dang, this guy reminds me of when I first got the sight. If I had anyone around me they'd probably think I was.... wait a second could Kanoa have brought us together because of...</span> Danny gave the other guy a dismissive wave and with it the thought that others knew his secret. ""Well if it wasn't directed at us what's the harm?"" he said, trying to keep his voice as chipper as possible. Okay. So this guy may be a tad bit crazy, but isn't everyone really? It's the ones that hide it well that you really have to look out for and Danny was sure that if push came to shove he could easily defend himself. But the schizo was hardly the most interesting thing that was going on here, By George this cabin was an architectural wonder! Or rather, anomaly. As the all shuffled into the cabin Danny drew his blade and -peeling away a piece of bark- made a small incision into the wall, causing some sort of sap to come out.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Well shiggidy diggidy. Things have definitely gotten interesting.</span> Following the other inside the windowless building (never a good idea) Danny couldn't help but feel as if he had stepped into a fairy tale cataloged by the Brothers Grimm. Especially when he saw the 'chandelier.' Unable to discern how the flames were being fueled Danny took out his pocket flash light to examine the tip of the vine but there was no shimmer showing that there was propane or any other gas. Rubbing his chin Danny proceeded to bring his zippo up to it but it refused to light despite the apparent heat that emanated from the flame.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Okay, maybe we aren't going out here to whack each other with foam toys and speak with British accents but that would mean...</span> Looking over at Kanoa he wondered. Did she know? It couldn't be that she knew he could...stack the deck. At most she probably thought he'd have an interest in the occult and wanted a discount at his aunt's store. It definitely made sense for the goth and that girl that hangs out in the graveyard- heck it even made sense for August if Danny did the mental gymnastics. But people like Corey and Orion? The former maybe would be desperate and look for 'alternative medicine' for his leg and while Orion definitely seemed like he'd go this far to fuck with someone, he was smart and knew that the losses outweighed the benefits of being around this crowd. <span class=""bb-i"">Well shit. We actually are out here to hunt a demon.</span><br/><br/>""I don't understand. just about every living thing on the planet uses adenosine triphosphate for energy on a cellular level. For this thing that can supposedly take the shape of humans it would have to have more than the simple camouflage that octopi have or the crystals that Chameleons have. It would be some sort of mass of stem cells that got recycled.""Thought Danny aloud. ""The energy input for such a creature to stay alive let alone form an accurate replica would be quite astounding. It would have to eat things that themselves absorbed quite a bit of energy..."" He added as his gaze turned to the curtain of glowing red vines. It could be that this creature was feeding off of those. It would make sense that it would provide a source of energy since it's redish-orange glow indicated that it focused its energy on absorbing shorter lightwaves and thus, higher energy. But if that were the case why would it even possess the ability to take on the traits of other beings?<br/><br/>""So, anyone have any idea why a Kitsune would kidnap a kid? Also, what are we going to do if/when we find him, or if the Kitsune finds us?""<br/>asked, Jackson was it? A sense of dread filled Danny's stomach.<br/><br/>""Jackson, have you ever heard the term, 'a wolf in sheep's clothing?'"" when something occurred to Danny. ""Did anyone check upstairs to see if there's anyone else here?""</div>"

He enjoyed the crunch of permafrost and twig under boot. Orion liked the outdoors. He liked it in the same way he liked Buddhism. It was exotic. It held a majesty beyond the ken of his everyday existence. There was trancendental tranquility found within. He was pretty sure he was too accustomed to privilege to last long in either.<br/><br/>There had been a time when he had been quite accustomed to the wooded world, actually. Orion's grandfather's, his baba's, home was surrounded by New England wilderness. He and Orion would go hiking together. The old man had a vigor beyond his age. He showed Orion animal tracks in the snow, native carvings on ancient cliff faces. Once, he and Orion had gone ice fishing. He had dragged a six year younger Orion onto a frozen lake while it was still dark out. Orion remembered not caring for that chronological idiosyncrasy. He also remembered being fascinated by the ice. So thick that even clear as it was he couldn't see the water beneath. Baba told him there were lakes that had been frozen since before man had learned fire. That prehistoric life, unchanged in millennial, remained frozen in those lakes.<br/><br/>There had been a rough wooden shack at the center of the lake. Inside were the arcane accouterments of their activity. An augur, a spud, hammers, fishing poles and line, a wood stove. Baba had brought a hot plate, their fishing box, and a small electric generator. Orion had struggled with the cooler and a small tank of gas. His baba had worked a starter hole in the ice and made Orion start driving the augur into it. Even in those days, Orion had been too tall for his own good. He had spent nearly an hour and a half work the augur three turns into the ice, soaking the inside of his thermal underwear with sweat while baba has gathered firewood. Chuckling at how little progress Orion had made the old man had taken over the augur and finished cutting the hole in minutes. Orion had hated that. But he loved the sound the augur and ice made as it finally pierced the bottom. The grinding chips of ice hissed roughly as they sank into the liquid beneath them, the Augur giving a sucking pop as it's blades cleared the hole. Baba had lifted the Augur and ice plug from the hole, tasking Orion with skimminh out the rest of the slush while he got the fire going. Orion did as his baba asked, as he always did. Orion was never ashamed to admit how much he adored his grandfather.<br/><br/>Orion had finished skimming out all the ice and had lain at the edge for a moment, his face almost in the hole, staring down into the black, motionless water. He couldn't see any fish. He couldn't see anything. The hole in the ice, so perfectly spherical didn't seem to be over water at all. As Orion had stared at it he forgot it was water he was looking at. It felt like he was at the bottom of the world, but there was no magma, no heat, only ice. Orion was at the bottom of the world and as he looked down into the hole they had dug at the bottom of the world he stared into what lay beyond.<br/><br/>There was nothing at all.<br/><br/>*****<br/><br/>Orion was reminded of the fishing shack by the cabin. He didn't know why. They weren't much alike beyond walls made of wood. One was a crude utilitarian thing, fashioned from iron and dead lumber by the hands of men, in stark contrast to it's surroundings. The other nestled in the forests embrace, woven from the very trees that surrounded it. But it reminded him just the same. It was also whispering. The fishing shack hadn't done that.<br/><br/>Orion wandered into the abode with the rest of them, wiping his feet on the lip of the doorway. No one else had done that. Just seemed polite.<br/><br/>He admired the interior, listening absently to the others as they spoke. He listened more intently on the things they didn't say. The way their shadows curled. The electric hum of their hearts. Hadn't a clue what it meant. But it was a sure shod better than listening to the whispers coming out of the walls. Like someone with a throat full of glass trying to croak a dirty limerick in his ear.<br/><br/>He remembered seeing a pop sci article on living houses like this one. Said in a few decades time that's what all houses would look like. Bio-engineered, green, self-maintaining. He was pretty sure they hadn't counted on yokai magic to make that environmental capitalist dream a reality. Or maybe they did, Orion was starting to think all the conspiracy buff was a bit sharper than he'd ever given it credit for.<br/><br/>He perked up at something someone had said, his brain taking a moment to catch up with his surroundings. Daniel was wondering if anyone had thought to check upstairs. He must have been a detective in a former life.<br/><br/>Orion crossed over to the pile of music machines, picking up the guitar by the neck. He turned the acoustic carefully over in his hands.<br/><br/>""Well now, let's see,"" balancing the guitar affectedly on the table he he held one palm on the top, pressing the long, spidery fingers of his other hand against the strings, low on the body. He was more used to the bass, and only electric at that, but Orion had as decent a grasp on how to play that most ancient of folk icons as he had on the instrument now, curling his hand into a claw without as much flourish as he could manage --a not inconsiderable amound-- and plucked sharply at the strings.<br/><br/>Something not unlike the first few licks of a <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gN_xzfjQiv4"" rel=""nofollow"">Tiger Rag</a> sans pitch filled the small cabin. Orion played with his eyes closed, head shaking back and forth like a metronome. He stopped abruptly as he started and listened to the silence that flooded back, looking around at his erstwhile compatriots in breaking and entering.<br/><br/>""Well I don't hear any toe-tapping above us so I'd bet anyone else who is here actually isn't or is actually dead."" He inflected his words like he wanted to be the Last DJ. Shrugging Orion dropped down onto one of the pillows, guitar in lap, fidgeting with the tuning until he was sure he'd fucked it all up and started plucking out a meandering little melody. Anything was better than listening to the whispers. Hecklers were the worst.</div>"

She told him to try and contain himself, and he promised he would. Obviously promises didn't mean very much to him. She ignored him as he tried to explain himself, and turned to Mary. Mary's reaction to the interior of the house lit a match in her head, she forgot for a moment that not everyone was as nonchalant about the paranormal as she was. Apparently the burning vines in particular were fascinating to Mary, even getting a joyful squee out of her. She soon noticed that she was acting out of character, because she stood up and attempted to play off her whimsical persona by getting straight to business. ""You want Jackson to guard the door? I don't see why not."" She glanced over to the boy that looked as if he were cosplaying Rambo, who was quick to retort to her name calling.<br/><br/>He doth protest just a tad too much...<br/><br/>Kanoa tapped her chin as he asked why a Kitsune would kidnap a young boy. ""There are a number of reasons, the main one being a source of life force. They can feed off of it, you see. Even still, the last known case of a hostile Kitsune was over fifty years ago, if I recall correctly."" She said.<br/><br/>Danny meanwhile was busy trying to logically explain how any of this could work. Kanoa watched rather amused, wondering if she should tease him and say it was 'just magic.' There was an entire system of magic that explained how these things worked, but it would take a lecture to define all of it right now, and they had things to do.<br/><br/>""Up stairs huh."" Kanoa glanced into the other room. ""Don't worry about that, if there was anyone in here they would have made their presence known by now, if not from our spiritual aura, then from the noise we've made."" As if on cue Orion began to fiddle with the guitar. Filling the cabin with notes that clouded her vision in colors. She blinked a few times, trying not to get a headache. ""We probably shouldn't be going out of our way to make noise, however..."" She walked up to him and took the guitar from his hands. ""August, here."" She handed the string instrument to the redhead, hoping she could sense anything from it. <br/><br/>Walking into the next room she was hit with a strong smell of grounded plants. The smell was familiar to her, as her family had a stock of various ingredients for use in casting spells. To her left she saw garden beds, where plants were growing straight out of the ground and kept in square plots by wood. In a corner of the room was a large black cast iron cauldron, the faint scent of what she assumed to be rabbit soup drifted from it. Near it was a table of living wood, on top of which were tools such as a mortar and pestle, as well as various solvents. In the other corner of the room were stone pots full of drinking water next to six wine barrels. <br/><br/>Kanoa walked up to the table and pinched a pile of powder between her fingers. ""Odd... I don't know why a Kitsune would bother making potions, some of these ingredients are only good for magical purposes. A Kitsune should be able to use magic on their own..."" Kanoa hummed in thought, and turned to the others. ""Mary, could you take a look at some of these plants with me, I have a feeling you'd recognize them more easily than I would. August, Orion, Daniel, take a look around upstairs for anything noteworthy. Stay on your toes everyone, just in case this fox spirit does come back."" She said to the group.</div>"

Regardless of his own level of knowledge on the subject he could understand why the 'building' was fascinating to behold, especially to the more scientifically minded members of the group. It defied all logic of the 'normal'. Maxwell crossed over toward one the vines that illuminated the room and moved his hand over the 'flame' that glowed at the tip of each. The vine seemed to retract from his presence, the flame dimming in its intensity. Removing his hand caused the flame to return to its original intensity. He was tempted to grab the vine forcefully, just to see how it would react. <font color=""gold"">“Probably not a good idea,”</font> he said to himself before realizing that he had spoken out loud. <font color=""gold"">“I guess that's not a bad idea, but I don't think we should split up either.”</font><br/><br/>Maxwell walked back over toward the table and again picked up the violin and turned it over in his hand, before testing its weight. Jackson raised a point that Maxwell had himself avoided thinking about. What do we do when we find it? What do we do if the kid is already...<br/><br/>Maxwell had no idea how he would react if that were the case. As Kanoa tossed out orders Maxwell found himself left out of the equation as it were, which was not entirely undesirable. He really didn't want to go upstairs. In truth he really didn't want to stay in this 'house'. It was starting to feel suffocating, as if the walls were exerting some kind of pressure against his presence. However there was a part of him that wanted to 'push' back. A feeling that maybe he should touch the interior of the structure. Dig his fingers into the flesh of the tree.<br/><br/><font color=""gold"">“I'll wait outside with Jackson,”</font> he said, staring at his own hand as he clenched it to suppress the feeling of strangeness that threatened to overcome him. He stuffed his hand deeply into his pockets and made his way back to the entrance and stepped back outside. The difference in illumination made him winch for a moment as his eyes adjusted to the natural light. It felt better outside. He sighed with relief to himself. <font color=""gold"">“What the hell is wrong with me?”</font> he said to himself as he felt a warm trickle run down the palm of his hand. He pulled his hand free from his jacket pocket and stared at the trails of red running from the palm of his hand. He hadn't realized how hard he had been clenching his fist.<br/></div>"

Mary had said something, but it was more an idle reaction to August's mutterings than an actual invitation to conversation. Kanoa was holding a guitar out to her. The redhead reached out to take it, still looking around the room with quirked lips. Considering how faded and weak the emotions in the cabin were, there probably wasn't much the guitar would do<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Where am I? Why am I here? What's going on, where is everyone, HOW DID I GET HERE?</span><br/><br/>August went rigid, pupils shrinking as much stronger emotions hit her core. She had let her guard down! Or had she? That's how it took her here! Where was here? Confusion rocked her as her fingers gripped the neck of the guitar tightly, eyes darting around as she stood completely still. Nothing had taken her, but she had been taken! No, August struggled to regain control as her breathing sped up. She shut her eyes tightly, trying to combat the foreign emotions. Confusion, waking up in a strange place you've never seen...anxiety, why were you here, how were you here? Combined with August's own panic at losing control over who she was, she was starting to freak out something fierce.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">How did she...he? I. Who was I? There are so many emotions, they aren't mine, they're...mine!</span><br/><br/>Deep breaths. In. Hold. Out. August's muscles loosened, her grip on the guitar started to relax. Focus. You know how to handle this. You do it everyday. Take your time. Her green eyes fluttered open, pupils returning to normal as her shoulder suddenly slumped. Dammit, she knew better than to let another person's emotions take her over like that...then she tasted it. Like an aftertaste from diet soda. A furrowed brow as she focused on it.<br/><br/>""Confusion...anxiety...calmness. He woke up here...he didn't know he was taken here...maybe the hypnotizing left that residual calmness...or he was drugged...I don't think this guy even knew what was happening to him even when he was awake.""<br/><br/>August set the guitar down, aware that she was sweating. She shook her sleeves out, wiping at her cheeks as she realized Kanoa was once again telling her to do something. Well enough, currently they were all just milling about like gawking children. She looked at the staircase, flitting her eyes to Orion and Daniel.<br/><br/>""Okay, neither of you are really thinking tiny little me is leading the walk to the creepy unknown upstairs in the spirit torture shack right? Cause I'm pretty sure I have a lower survivability rate in a fight than either of you.""<br/><br/>The redhead walked to the base of the stairs, leaning over the banister to try and see up without actually walking up. Sure, she had the knife in her backpack. Did she know how to use it? If flailing wildly while backing up was a recognized military tactic, sure. She was never one to play damsel in distress and let a boy do something she was usually far more qualified to take care of, but this was a matter of logic.<br/><br/>Daniel was 6'3"", had a law enforcement family, and seemed to be in good condition. <br/>Orion was taller than her, and was known for being athletic.<br/>August was 5' and got winded if she jogged upstairs too fast. <br/><br/>Feminism be damned, the males could take this one first.</div>"

He knew he probably should've kept a lid on the whole possession thing as best he could, but goddammit it if it wasn't easy. He could feel Aphosis influencing him everyday, the urge to do unspeakable actions growing slowly but surely. Even now, he had to catch himself now and then, lest his thoughts turned to murder and desecration, of blood and death. Every minute of every second he could feel Aphosis consume him from the inside out, like a disease that slowly rots you from your core. And yet, he found himself caring less and less, sometimes wondering why he even bothers to fight back at all. One day, he will give in and that will be the only easy way out of this nightmare that Aphosis will let him take. <br/><br/>Shaking his head of such thoughts, he put the knives away and went over to the cabin entrance, only taking a second to stop and look at August have a mini-panic attack at touching a guitar. <span class=""bb-i"">Shit, It affects her that much? I guess being empathetic to that level isn't all it's cracked up to be.</span> He almost went over to see if she was okay, but by then she seemed to have gotten the hang of herself and was heading upstairs with Daniel and Orion.<br/><br/>Seeing that August was fine, he continued his walk to the door, leaning against the frame as he looked outside. He scanned the forest half-heartedly for amything out of place, not really expecting to see the spirit coming if it did show up. Which brought him back to his earlier line of thought, what in the ever-living-fuck are they going to do when they find the spirit. He doubted any of them were equipped to handle such a thing if it turned violent. . . unless stopping it was never the plan. Jackson looked back at Kanoa, rembering how she said she met the Kitsune and that it tried go hypnotize her. She'd never explained why that didn't work, hell, she hardly told them anything about her plan of action either. This led him to 3 conclusions: 1.)Kanoa had no idea what she was doing, 2.)She was under the spirits spell, and worst of them all, 3.) She was the Kitsune. Mary's theory was seeming a lot more plausible now.</div>"

It was clear that Danny was out of his depth here, and the sooner he accepted that the faster that they could find out what happened. He couldn't rely on any advanced form of forensic knowledge and had to make due with what he- they had. And what they had was a psychometrist in August. While it wasn't that Danny disbelieved her (The CIA did all sorts of experiments related to it in the hey-day of the cold war) he couldn't help but worry that whatever was on these objects may affect her- possibly even cause her to behave as erratically as that Jackson guy. While he believed his thoughts were altruistic in nature he couldn't help but size her up in case she did go axe murderer only to feel a blanket of guilt fall over him. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Christ man, yeah you may not know these people that well but that doesn't mean you should think about breaking their spine.</span> As if reading his thoughts August words snapped him back to (what probably wasn't) reality. ""Oh I'm not sure about that. You seem to do well in a scrap with the power-lines....most of the time."" Danny said trying to crack a smile. <span class=""bb-i"">Could she read his mind? Could she read him from a distance? If you're reading my mind then I don't regret contemplating breaking your back you eavesdropper! Alright I expect that you're gone now and that you are focusing on the investigation!.....Damn it Herne, you're a real galoot.</span> Danny held in a sigh cursing his cycle of paranoia. This was obviously his own way of compensating for his lack of control in a situation, and lashing out because he was scared. But for now that didn't matter since people were depending on him. So instead of questioning if these feelings were brought on by a malevolent demon from the far east or if he himself would end up vanishing like this kid he drew his khukri, put down his pack and approached the stairs as non-threateningly as possible to lead the way.<br/><br/>Slowly making his way up the stairs, Danny made a fist parallel to his head to indicate for the others to stop. Moving with a silence ill-befitting his size, Danny checked the corners, under the bed and even the ceiling before returning to the top of the stairs and giving them the all clear signal. With no imminent danger in sight Danny made his way back to the bed to look at it in more detail, speaking loud enough so that even those downstairs could hear. ""Judging by the way this bed is still made but rumpled I'd say that our missing person was placed here while unconscious, not surprising if he was taken after getting the roofie treatment."" Turning 180 degrees Danny went over to the collection of conspicuous boxes in the corner, blade held at the ready. While his ability would often times manifest as his very own spider-sense that was when someone in the locker room trying punching him when his back was turned, not when dealing with anthropomorphic succubi. And so with teeth clenched and heart pounding Daniel grabbed the lid of a box and threw it open to find...clothes? Letting out a breath he didn't realize he was holding Danny picked up a shirt and called out, ""S'okay. Just some clothes- boys clothes here. But judging by the musty smell, it's been here for some time. A longer time than our guy has been missing.""<br/><br/>Chewing on his lip Danny reviewed what they had known so far aloud. ""Not only were there Kitsunes in Maine, they are tracked and recorded if they (who 'they' were is another pressing question) attacked humans. Kitsunes are magical beings that can shape-shift and hypnotize people- though only through eye contact. While this could affect someone for some time and repress a sense of reason it couldn't have been effecting the person perpetually otherwise August wouldn't have picked up what seemed to be a spike in anxiety off of our vic's guitar. That clothing being exclusively male and here for a long time definitely suggests that this was pre-meditated. According to Kanoa those are magical potions downstairs despite the fact that Kitsunes apparently don't need them to use magic, which means they were intended for someone else."" As the gears whirled in his brain Danny concluded, ""This gives me two theories. That there are laws in place of this secret world that Kanoa hasn't told us about yet and this spirit was using our guy as a proxy so the powers that be wouldn't rain down upon her, or this is like that book Misery. Either way, I believe that our missing person is like us. I think he was also an Awoken.""</div>"

That was fine, as long as it didn’t cause trouble for anyone else. Maxwell was a little similar in that regard, though not to this level. Maxwell grinned wryly to himself and shook his head. <font color=""gold"">“Yeah, as if we would be so lucky, right?”<span class=""bb-b""> </span></font> he said as he leaned against the wall of the ‘treehouse’.<br/><br/>For a moment he said nothing more and just stared off into the surrounding forest. It was strange but he was starting to feel as though something were watching him from the gloom, something beyond his sight but not his combined senses. But it was not an ominous sensation either and so for now he would let it slide. He sighed and bowed his head forward so that his hood obscured his face from view, his heads placed deeply into his jacket pockets. He turned his head toward Jackson. <font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-b"">“Are you going to be OK? Only you seem to be a little uptight right now.

We come up here and have literally no idea what we're up against or what it wants. We think it's a Kitsune, based off of her say-so, but that doesn't really help since I'm pretty sure half this group has no idea what that is and those who do get their information from anime and wikipedia, and we have no idea how reliable any of our sources are!""</font> Jackson grunted as he kicked the doorframe in frustration. After taking a second to calm down, he leaned back against the door frame and slide down to a sitting position on the ground, giving Kanoa another suspicious glance. <font color=""#0076a3"">""It just seems like we have almost no real plan here and Kanoa's barely giving us any information on what we're fighting. If I didn't know better, I'd think she was under some kind of hypnosis or something, or was the Kitsune herself.

Instead of snapping back Maxwell went back to watching the forest. The sense of being watched was growing, but it was impossible to tell where from. All around maybe?

It was a good pout. He had the lips for it, full, situated low on a long jaw. Heavy eyelids, sharp brow described over the line of his glasses. Curled into a pout, arched into a wounded glance Orion could put people in the mind of the world's pluckiest, orphan gazelle trapped on a cliff side after a harrowing chase. It was a pout that could melt the most arctic of blood, break a bedrock heart. It was a pout that would give a mongol horde pause. Nobody was paying any attention.<br/><br/>He had deployed the weapons-grade expression in response to Kanoa's brazen and unprovoked blitzkrieg on his artistic sovereignty. The audacity, the sheer, unmitigated gall to take an instrument from a musician's hands. Fortunately for her, she had prepared the perfect defense; complete dismissal and deflection. She handed the guitar to August. Orion's brow shifted, his jaw tightened. Well played, Marigold.<br/><br/>Orion watched sidelong. Sweat and synesthesia. Silence. He kept his gaze from his position on the floor. He watched August cross to the stair. He smirked at her frank observation of their present realities. A brave hero was needed to brave the unknown reached of a higher plane. Orion made a big show of unfolding his train rail limbs, groaning with the herculean effort of motion. Falling back off of the pillow he felt the cool earth along his spine as he rolled onto his shoulders hoisting his weight above him, legs coiling tight as his hands planted on either side of his head, pushing off the ground he reversed the arch of his spine, twisting his body forwards, for a brief moment, all of him was suspended in space, unable to see the ground, unsure of how he would land. Then it was over. Feet touched earth, his body collapsing into a crouch, long arms extended before him to counterbalance the force that still wanted to land him flat on his back. No one ever appreciated how hard it was for someone of Orion's side to jump to his feet from the ground like that. No one appreciated it now. A hero was already found.<br/><br/>Danny rose up the stair into the heavens, a twitchy vanguard of their ascension. Orion stood, humming thoughtfully to himself. He stretched tall, yawning for effect, elbows hitting the ceiling. Sniffing Orion sauntered to the stair, staring up with August after Danny. He glanced back at August, staring at her over his spectacles.<br/><br/>""Steady on there Batty. You here with me?"" He could still taste the psychical residue of...whatever it was that August did with the guitar. Tasted like lime and tin. He furrowed his brow into a concerned and thoughtful frown. It was a good frown.<br/><br/>August's sharp eyes flitted briefly to Orion, lips pursed. Her glitch had not gone unnoticed, unfortunately. She could hear Danny above them, talking, moving about. The red head looked back up the stairs.<br/><br/>""I'm good, just caught me off guard. Thank you, though, for asking, not many people do...It's just if I'm not prepared for that kind of stuff, it can be a bit overwhelming. Shocked me a bit.""<br/><br/>She ran a hand through her absurdly long hair, flipping the braid over one shoulder and adjusting her circular glasses. She quirked her mouth again.<br/><br/>""You'd think I'd be used to it by now...bothersome that it still catches me sometimes.""<br/><br/>Eyebrows furrowed as she cracked a knuckle, mind racing at a breakneck pace about twenty different things. Surface thoughts, she prodded Orion on the cheek.<br/><br/>""What about you Oreo? So far you've been fairly docile about this whole thing. All things considered, that's unusual. I know your whole thing is being calm, and acting like the cucumber in the iceberg, but even you have to have an opinion on all this.""<br/><br/>The tiny girl started heading up the stairs as Danny called out about the missing boy possibly being similar to them. She walked backwards up the steps, emerald eyes focused on Orion. It was clear she was reading him, studying him. A technician looking at the machine and trying to figure it out.<br/><br/>""What do you think about all this?""<br/><br/>A groan in Orion's gut mixed with a growl in his gullet. He ducked under a large branch serving as a crossbeam his natural afro snapping back into shape after it squished under the limb. He feet dragged with painful slowness with each step as he followed her up the stare, hunched, hands thrust into his hoodie's pockets. He paused mid-step, as if trying to read his thoughts from the shadow of the next step. From the way the darkness coiled and writhed, he just might be. He settled his foot down with definition. He looked at August. Even halfway further up the step they were still glasses to glasses.<br/><br/>""A bit overwhelming,"" his sniffed dryly, ""yeah, I think your singing my song, shorty."" Orion turned on his heel and leaned against the woody wall of the stair, folding his arms over his narrow chest. He slowly turned his head towards the bottom of the staircase, considering.<br/><br/>""I see an awful lot of fragile people standing around in what I'm finding seems to be an increasingly fragile reality. I think..."" he pressed his tongue against the back of his teeth. ""Something is going to give. Maybe I'm just rubberneckin', waiting to see what snaps first.""<br/><br/>He shrugged and smiled wryly, it was a good smile, all lopsided angles and edges. It almost looked sincere.<br/></div>"

The joy filled her with energy much faster than any coffee may have--<br/><br/>Still, there were social norms to meld to, even if only slightly, and preconceived cosmic roles and tropes to fit. She had to approach the botany with the combined energies of the Mary that Mary was in her own mind as well as the energy that Mary was in the minds of these people that barely knew her as acquaintances would attribute to her. <br/><br/>Specifically, in this instance, Kanoa was whom she interacted with-- fitting, since she was the one leading the charge into all of this, the unknown, and whose simple contact had touched <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> in her.<br/><br/>Mary, resisting the urge to grab her hand and run over to the plants, simply waited until the other grouped off and said their pieces, before turning to Kanoa, trying to reign in her childlike splendor, responded, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Cool. Yeah. Totes, I can look at some flowers if you want boss-lady, i-if you think it'll help, or whatever.</font>""<br/><br/>""Let's start with these over here, Mary."" Kanoa gestured to a group of plants nearest to the corner. She knelled down by the miniature garden and inspected the flora. She recognized only a few of the plants, as she had used them for potions on occasion. ""Nightshade, cat's claw... With the right touch these can be made into a knockout powder. Again, not something a kitsune would need as long as they have their magic."" Kanoa frowned and looked at the rest of the plants, she had never used them before, but they were common in the forest. ""This doesn't really make sense, unless someone else besides the spirit has been working here.""<br/><br/>Kanoa picked a particularly strange blue bud from the garden. The pedals felt like velvet, and it gave off a strong sweet smell that almost made her light headed. ""Are you familiar with what this is?"" She asked Mary.""<br/><br/>Mary followed Kanoa's gaze tentatively, the dance of social niceties balanced with her own passion. Mary tilted her head as Kanoa began pointing out a few of the names, she wasn't new at this. Mary almost asked what she even needed her there for, Kanoa didn't seem to need any help with--<br/><br/>Mary caught the frown. <br/><br/>The thought processes that went in and around Kanoa's head were ones Mary didn't understand-- from what she knew of the girl even trying to understand might prove futile. Still, there were things going on here that Mary wanted to understand, coming along would have been pointless otherwise. Mary took a moment to observe the blue bulb Kanoa wanted Mary to identify, her pupils widening in silent observation. A second later, she plucked a petal off the lotus and popped it into her mouth.<br/><br/>Her pupils widened further. This was the good stuff.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Egyptian blue lotus! I'd recognize that garmonbozia anywhere... It's like, a sacred soporific, or something.</font>"" Mary set the bulb back onto the dirt, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Yeah, that's like, dangerous stuff-- slip this in a kid's drink and he'd follow you anywhere if you asked him, or he'd just fall asleep.</font>"" Her eyes shot to Kanoa's, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Are you sure that some magical fox did this? I mean, it's totally magic that this is somehow growing in fucking Maine, but so is this magical treehouse. Maybe it's just some magic dude spiking peoples drinks with enchanted Egyptian flower potion roofies to make 'em disappear.</font>""<br/><br/>Mary paused, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Is that still a thing? Like, do people still make potions? In the magical world? I figure I should know... for... reasons...</font>""<br/><br/>Kanoa watched as Mary's eyes filled with life at the site of the bulb. It was slightly contagious coming from her, considering her typical lackadaisical attitude. It was pretty obvious that the girl had an affection for these types of plants. It was nice seeing this side of her, it wasn't often that she could see someone gush over something they were passionate about. It almost felt unfair that Kanoa hadn't shown much of herself to the others.<br/><br/>""Dangerous stuff?"" Kanoa asked with a nervous smile. ""I'm going to assume it's alright to chew on it like that then."" She had faith that Mary knew what she was doing, and that she wouldn't be needing to carry her out of the forest any time soon. ""I'm not too sure anymore actually. I know I saw a fox spirit, and the leaves found at the scene of the disappearance back it up..."" Kanoa pulled out her notepad and flipped the pages to a picture she sketched of roots. ""A tree on the way here had bite marks on it's roots, they look like they could have come from a fox. Kitsune's live by absorbing energy from living things, but... Plants are hardly a reliable source of this energy. Perhaps this spirit kidnapped the boy to get a reliable source of energy.""<br/><br/>Kanoa tapped her chin a few times, pondering, when she remembered that Mary had asked something else. ""Oh, potions? Yes of course, they've always had their uses. The only reason they aren't publicly known is because only those with a tether can get them to work. It's kinda complicated, but I could show you sometime if you'd like.""<br/><br/>Mary responded to Kanoa's concern with something between a lackadaisical grin and a self-assured smirk-- she couldn't quite tell which it was, both? Honestly, it was probably neither, her muscles were already beginning to relax to a concerning degree. As she chewed on the petal, she remembered exactly why this potent stuff was worshiped and considered sacred by a bunch of bi-racial geometric shape sculptors.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No wait... that was ancient Costa Ricans-- Egyptians were aliens.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Riiiiight...</span><br/><br/>Mary gave her head a little shake. Reality is where she was needed, she needed to stay in reality, in the magical tree. It would make a hella bad impression to just pass out now... Even moreso than spilling your inner demons to a group of indifferent post-tweens-- especially with how it would seem to Kanoa. This was a good opportunity. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">You should be paying attention...</span><br/><br/>She tilted her head again as Kanoa began to speak, eyes narrowing slightly. Mary's eyes flickered with a dimming light, it was all she could do to maintain control, her eyes glossed over Kanoa's features, finding a mild entertainment in the novelty of her outfit, before soon after, settling in following the subtle changes in her face and the slight curves her lips made as she spoke further about the Kitsune dilemma. She had the elocution of a detective, almost. Or more specifically, like, a TV detective. That also dealt in the paranormal-- so not just any CSI scrub-- she was like an X-Files scrub. Or was she? Mary could already infer she was too open to be Scully, and she was way too hot to be Mulder...<br/><br/>Was she Coop? Nah. Well... Audrey was <span class=""bb-i"">kind</span> of a detective... she helped a little? It'd be racist to say she was Joan, wouldn't it? The lady from Fringe? Mary gave an internal sigh, as Kanoa flipped through her notepad. Why weren't there more attractive, Asian spooky detectives on TV?<br/><br/>Wait-- Lucy Liu plays a decent Watson... that's kind of spooky... right?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Sure, I guess.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Jesus Christ</span>, Mary's eyes widen an imperceptibly small degree as she observed the sketch of bitten roots, when did she even have time to draw those? She spoke more, mostly in matters relating to the magical fox-- the bit about the plants was interesting. Apparently they did have souls! Even if only small amounts of soul that foxes could barely survive off of. After a moment Kanoa spoke again, addressing Mary's peculiar request regarding potions. Despite rationalizing the offer to make sick witches brew as more of those social niceties on Kanoa's part, Mary still blushed.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Dude!</font>"" She didn't let the surprise transfer to her voice, however, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Of course I wanna learn how to make magical herb smoothies. Gonna enchant the shit out of those bendy straws! I'm excited... like genuinely excited actually, which is new...</font>"" She paused, adopting something resembling a serious tone for an instant, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">It's a lot to take in. All of it is.</font>"" Mary drew in a deep breath. The Blue Lotus was fast acting, but in such a small dose it was weak, she could feel it's influence weakening-- ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Honestly, I thought you were crazy... yesterday... today... until I saw all this... I seriously hear voices at the cemetery and <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> thought <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> were crazy...</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Glebionis coronaria,</font>"" Mary said, point at another flower Kanoa hadn't identified, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">It makes really nice tea.</font>"" Brushing the petals with a finger, she shrugged, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Maybe foxy has sleeping problems? Throw all this in a cauldron you'd have a brew with a little more kick than chamomile and warm milk.</font>"" A smirk, she turned to Kanoa, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Is it alright if I take some of these?</font>"" She forced an overly pleading smile, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">For research? These aren't native to this region-- maybe a botanist in town had some seeds stolen, or something?</font>""<br/><br/>""Me, crazy? Nah."" Kanoa shook her head, a facetious tone in her voice. ""I'm just glad you all believed me, it's nice to have some people my own age to relate to."" She was well aware of how far-fetched her claims had been at first. She could have easily proved herself by using a spell of some kind, but in her opinion it was usually better to show than to tell, that and she was far too lazy to conjure up a spell for such a reason. Mary pointed out another plant, this one apparently good for making tea. ""Tea to help it sleep? Seems unlikely, but probable."" She said. <br/><br/>When Mary asked if she could take some of the plants Kanoa's face scrunched up. ""Um, I'm not sure actually. I suppose we've already left more than a few traces that we've been here, it can't miss a few, right?"" Kanoa shrugged her shoulders and stood up. She glanced over to the work station covered in tools and materials. ""I've got an idea, come over here.""<br/><br/>A mortar and pestle sat on the table, trace amounts of whatever potion had last been created inside. Kanoa ran a finger along the bottom of the bowl and sniffed the fibrous remains of the plants. ""Good..."" She mumbled to herself as she scooped up three bundles of torn plants and put them inside the mortar. ""We should be able to recreate whatever potion was made here, it may give us a hint as to where our culprit is. Hmm. This would be a good chance for me to show you how this is done."" Kanoa took Mary's hands and placed them on the pestle, with her own hands covering hers. ""Enchanted potions can be made in a few ways, but I'll show you the easiest first."" Kanoa began to guide Mary's hands in grinding the ingredients down. ""With this method, you need to gradually infuse the ingredients with your spiritual energy. You've probably never done this before, so I'll show you how it's done."" <br/><br/>Kanoa took a deep breath and relaxed, her hands began to glow with a faint, barely visible blue aura. ""Feels kind of warm, right? My mother taught me how to do this, surprised the heck out of me."" She said. ""Take a deep breath and try to calm yourself, focus on your hands, imagine pouring your very soul into them- oh yeah, souls are real by the way, but that was just a figure of speech."" She cleared her throat, and continued. ""You should feel a warmth travel into your hands and reside there, keep it there, and keep grinding for a few minutes.""<br/><br/>She let go of her hands, interested to see if her first attempt at teaching someone something mystical would pay off.<br/><br/>Mary's face, entirely out of her own control, flushed with emotion. Just yesterday, a simple brush from Kanoa's hand was enough to drive her to a personal spiritual revelation. Now, that soft touch was guiding both of her hands, like she was the female love interest in some shitty 90's sports movie. Mary had to struggle to to let her own hands tremble under Kanoa's gentle clasp. Her face more than made up for that though. Her blush was one intense enough to earn it's own caption;<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote""><span class=""bb-i"">[blushing intensifies]</span></blockquote><br/><br/>Either Kanoa was completely oblivious-- perhaps too absorbed in the matter at hand to notice Mary's strong reaction-- or, alternatively, she was completely aware of it, and she was toying with Mary, in her own supernatural savant sort of way. Mary hadn't known Kanoa long, and the more she thought about it, as she fought to think about anything other than the present; the physical connection was, despite Mary's dilated pupils, still somewhat mundane. One pair of skilled hands teaching another, to Mary, became an almost sensual exchange of knowledge, one body, a mere modicum of space aware from pressing against the student, the air became warm as Kanoa spoke of infusing the ingredients with her own... <span class=""bb-i"">spiritual</span>... energy.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Christ, you're being weird again, dude.</span><br/><br/>Turning her attention back to what Kanoa was actually creating, a genuine surprised gleam replaced slightly coquettish blushes. <br/><br/>Her hands were literally glowing blue.<br/><br/>Wanting to cop, radical mystical aura powers, Mary began following Kanoa's instructions; slowing her breathing, calming her mind... imagining her (apparently real) soul as her breath was much of the time... a purple smokey haze, she imagined pushing that out through her hands. The warm tingle that she might feel on her pores...<br/><br/>Mary almost lost herself. Was she trying to force it? Why wasn't it working? Was she doing something wrong? Was something wrong with her? Or her aura or whatever? Why wasn't...<br/><br/>Something clicked inside her.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""...keep it there, and keep grinding for a few minutes.""</span><br/><br/>Mary's eyes glowed playfully, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Christ Kanoa, phrasing.</font>"" she was still pooling her spiritual energy into the mortar. But in that moment, in that xeno of a lack of force, an almost indescribable violet emanated from Mary's stirring hands in tandem with the comment. She looked down, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Whoa, shit.</font>"" for Mary, the slight widening of her eyes was about as significant as a normal human yelling in absolute bewilderment.<br/><br/>""Whoa indeed, you picked up on this pretty quickly. I'm impressed."" Kanoa said. She patted Mary on the back and took a look at the results of her infusion. To the average person, a normal person, there would be nothing to see from the crushed plants. However, Kanoa was able to see something. Like a brilliantly cut gem refracting light she could see an aura of color surrounding anything with spiritual energy. She had used this ability of hers to find those with a tether in her school, and now it was helping her make a potion. <br/><br/>She opened a glass jar of water and dumped the ingredients inside of it. ""Now we just shake it a bit..."" She said, taking the jar and violently thrashing it up and down. Usually this was done slowly, but she never did like taking her time making potions. The crushed plants disintegrated in the water and turned the liquid into a dark blue solution. She brought the glass closer to her face and rotated it, the dim light from glowing mushrooms giving only modest visibility. ""Huh, would you believe me if I told you this is a potion that allows you to breath underwater?"" She sat the potion down and scribbled in her notebook.<br/><br/>""You're pretty adorable when you're flustered like that by the way."" Kanoa said with a smirk, eyes on her writing. She might seem aloof at times, but she wasn't clueless. She wasn't expecting that type of reaction from Mary when she touched her hands. The notebook closed with a clap, and she looked over to Mary. ""Don't worry, I won't tell anyone if you won't."" <br/><br/>She leaned against the table and crossed her arms. ""Speaking of the others, I wonder if they've found anything useful up there...""<br/><br/>If before, Mary had only become a few shades pinker, Kanoa's comments had easily driven her flushed cheeks into shades of beet red, even the purple aura lingering around her hands became a few shades carmine. Of course she'd managed to catch it! She was a psychic wunderkiind-- she just taught Mary how <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> make magic Aquaman smoothie in a bottle. She was becoming... impressive? Was that the right word? It certainly had something to do with the of it all as well. But still, she had access to magic-- <span class=""bb-i"">active control of some of it</span>-- and she chose to share it with her classmates, to show them into the world they could see but didn't know, and try to do something good. <br/><br/>Mary couldn't help but wonder, with that kind of insight, would she have reached out...?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">God! How awful introspection is!</span><br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Th-thanks...</font>"" Mary, jumping to sit on the edge of the incredible table, that appeared to be some mix between stump and interwoven branches, responded to Kanoa with her own flustered mini-smirk. ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Hmmm... I mean, we could go check?</font>"" She crossed her legs, switching her gaze between Kanoa's fading playful expression and the rest of the visible room, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Honestly, the only thing I can tell from all these flowers is that whoever lives here has some interest in botany. Not just like a passive interest either, some of these hybrids are like, next level, y'know?</font>"" She brushed the petals of a particularly large and colorful lion/dragon flower on the table, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Like, it shouldn't be possible to cultivate some of this shit, next level.</font>"" <br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Actually,</font>"" Mary tilted her head, eyes on Kanoa's notebook, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Some of these look like such fragile strains, I couldn't take 'em when we go even if I wanted,</font>"" Mary shrugged, her full nonchalant smirk returning, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Which, for the record, I totally do. I'd take all of these beauties if I could,</font>"" Smiling, she gave an obviously exaggerated sigh, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Anyway. If you wanted I could sketch some of these down if you think it'd help, I mean, if you wanted.</font>""<br/><br/>Kanoa handed her notebook to Mary. Her sketches were decent, however, Mary was bound to have a more accurate touch when it came to flora. ""That might prove useful, just um, ignore the pictures of cats."" She said sheepishly, hoping the numerous sketches of cartoonish felines wouldn't seem too odd, she drew when she was bored, and she was bored quite often. She pushed off the table and looked towards the stairs once more. ""Once they're done up there we'll leave, I know where we're headed to next."" Kanoa said. ""You know how to swim, right?"" She looked back to Mary. ""Because we'll be swimming, a lot.""<br/><br/>She picked up the azure potion and poured it's contents into thin glass vials stopped with corks. All but one of the vials was fitted inside of her seemingly bottomless pockets, the lone vial was handed to Mary. ""Keep this with you..."" Kanoa's eyebrows raised as she realized something. ""Oh, don't worry, I know you've likely never had a metamorphosis potion before, but it's safe. Like... 99.99% safe."" <br/></div>"

Jackson said as he got up, looking both annoyed and enlightened by Maxwell's speech. The guy was right, he wasn't going to get any answers just by moaning about not getting any, he had to confront her. Either he was wrong and would look like a jackass, or he was right snd they'd all get killed by a fox spirit. A lose-lose situation, but if he was going to die, he might as well strike first. <br/><br/>With that cheery thought in mind, he went over to approach Kanoa, who seemed mixing potions with Mary. He walked up to the two, and cleared his throat to get their attention. <br/><br/>""Kanoa, before we go any deeper into this, I have to ask you a few questions, the main one being what exactly is the plan when we find this Kitsune or the other student? Hell, do you even have a plan, or are you winging it as you go along, because if you are, then I'm out. I already have enough issues as it is, and I don't want to add being some spirit fox's lunch to the list. Just give me something to work with, cause I'm not entirely sure you know what you're doing.""<br/><br/></div>"

Her eyes settled on Daniel rooting around the garments. His last words echoed in the red head's mind as she quirked her lips, careful to not touch anything this time until she was ready.<br/><br/>""Awoken? You mean the kid may have been tied to all the spirit stuff, that's what got him noticed in the first place?""<br/><br/>It would make sense...maybe. She still barely understood anything from this world. Just that she was dabbling her toes in the shallow end. She decided to take a chance.<br/><br/>""Here's the weird part, okay? It wasn't...fear. He wasn't afraid, he was apprehensive. Nervous, like he wasn't totally sure he was in danger, or safe. That may have been the hypnotism, but if it wasn't suppressing everything, or when it wore off enough to make him nervous, wouldn't he be afraid?""<br/><br/>""Maybe he wasn't hypnotised to begin with,"" Daniel offered, ""Lets look at our missing person. He was in the woods with a guitar so he must have been brooding, not suprising since not only was he a teenager, he was like us. So while playing his music out in the forest he attracts the attention of someone- something else. This kitsune does what kitsunes do and turns into an attractive form and starts chatting him up. Instead of trying to seduce him right away she must have figured out he was like us, either through her hypnosis not working or maybe by the flavor of his energy. Either way she  instead starts chatting him up, tells him she understands, introduces him to this secret world of ours. Over weeks she gives him just enough to keep him ensnared, either exploiting his feeling of isolation from everyone else or the discovery of power, shows him what we can do like with the potions down stairs Kanoa mentioned. So he keeps going and going but soon realizes that she's possessive and doesn't want him to have any other friends or friends if you know what I mean."" Running his hand through his hair Daniel frowned. ""Or it could all be a load of bunk. Heck I'm basing this all on the idea that fox demons think like humans do. This is really just a shot in the dark for me.""<br/><br/>August tapped her chin, circling the room as she listened, avoiding touching anything. While Daniel ruminated upon the means and methods of kitsune thought, Orion occupied himself with rummaging through the boxes of clothes, holding some up to his body. Unfortunately, he could not rock a yellow summer dress.<br/><br/>""So, you think that drugging and kidnapping someone out of jealousy constitutes normal, human thought patterns?"" He arched an eyebrow at Dan.<br/><br/>""Partner abuse is extremely high,"" Replied Daniel ignoring the sarcasm. ""While I don't want to get into the darker bits of it, One in two marriages in the U.S. end in divorce, be it financial, jealously, abuse or something else. About seventeen percent of marriages involve extra marital affairs, with nineteen percent being male and seventeen being women. Compounded with hookup culture portraying males as sexually promiscious beings by their very nature it's very easy for someone to think that. Especially when said person survives by seducing someone. <br/><br/>August kept silent, watching the two males jockey for dominance in the most passive aggressive argument she had ever seen. It was...amusing, adorable. Another circle of the room. She contemplated touching the clothing to get a feel, but opted against it. If the cabin didn't give her anything solid, the clothing was probably more likely to jar her again rather than assist. <br/><br/>""Huh..."" Orion turned back to the facinating world of stolen clothing. ""You're a real bummer, you know that?"" Tossing down the cardigan he'd been holding he sauntered over to the bed, flopping down on it spreadeagle, his feet hanging over the sides. <br/><br/>""It's why I usually hang out on roof tops."" Danny said with a shrug.<br/><br/>""Well, I don't know about your fine art of induction, Boy Wonder, but some of those cloths still have their tags on them, pretty sure we can figure out where they came from if we care too. Maybe our foxy lady friend is masquerading at the local Hobby Lobby."" Orion returned the shrug.<br/><br/>""If either of us is the sidekick, it's you but that's beside the point. By cross-referencing the store tags to a map of the town, we should be able to find where this creature 'hunts.' While we won't be able to get security tapes from these stores with them often taping over themselves I'm sure Kanoa or August would be able to spot them in a crowd."" replied Danny, rubbing his hands together in glee. <br/><br/>Orion inclined his head up to stare at Danny. He couldn't make up his mind if the kid was for real or not. It was like listening to a radio serial.<br/><br/>""Would you two prefer I leave the room so you can compare dick size now or later? I think that's enough Alpha hormones for one day boys, stay focused.""<br/><br/>Danny blinked. Alpha hormones? Him? While it was true that Danny was constantly working out, that was more from his inability to stay still, not for asserting dominance, he considered himself a nerd, or at the very least an intellectual that waxed philosphically. For some reason he wanted to protest this, but knew that doing so would only prove her point. Damn.<br/><br/>Orion grinned at them, broad and white of color and intention, not even the barest hint of schadenfreude, advancing from the realm of disarming authenticity and into the lands of smarm with a puckish wink to the two. There seemed pattern forming in his life of people accusing him of posturing. He honestly couldn't fathom why.<br/><br/>The redhead thumped Orion on the chest as she walked by the bed, giving a frown at both of them. Boys...she wondered if this was how her brother acted when she wasn't around. The miniscule girl suddenly remembered why she had been in relationships with girls for the past 4 years now. Not that they were much better at times.<br/><br/>""I couldn't pick someone out of a crowd unless I touched them, so ignoring that we don't need to see where it hunts as we know where it's magical hidey hole is, we don't even know if it's aggressive. Also, where is it right now? I think we've dallied around enough as it is, we should probably head back downstairs. There's nothing really up here...the clothing idea isn't a bad idea, but how do we know it's not stolen from another kid that just hasn't been reported, or from another town? Who knows how far this thing roams, it could just be settling in here for a long haul or this could be a vacation home to it.""<br/><br/>There was just so much testosterone in this room, she needed out. The two were sizing each other up like dogs who didn't want to fight or back down. Her eyes lingered on the stock of food for a moment, absent mindedly touching the bed as she did so. Her eyes fluttered for a moment, then her head snapped over to where Orion was laying.  August suddenly shoved him from one side.<br/><br/>""Get up, he slept here! Move move move, I need a better contact!"" With sisyphian effort she tried to thrust his limp, overly long mass off the bedding, Orion making no effort to help her endevour. Then her demand clicked in his head. Orion stopped grinning.<br/><br/>Rolling off the bed languidly, he straightened up and stared at August. The frown was back. She had struggled with a relatively new and unweathered instrument. Somehow he thought the bed where the boy may well have laid unconcious for hours or days wouldn't prove any easier. He pressed his lips into a line and folded his arms. He wouldn't ask her if she was certain that this was a good idea. None of this had been a <span class=""bb-i"">good</span> idea.<br/><br/>""Take care now, Batty. Just...um..."" he shrugged his hunched shoulders. ""Just remember where you are or who you are. Whatever it is that seems so easy to lose on your little spirit journeys.""<br/><br/>August quirked her lips as she stared at the bed, not looking back up to Orion as she spoke.<br/><br/>""I don't lose anything, I'm not losing who I am, I'm just...changing it. I come out different every time. Where most people slowly change and evolve through their experiences over time, I get a data surge and just kind of wake up...altered. It's usually minor, nothing too big...food preferences, music tastes...I should be fine since I'm prepared. But uh...""<br/><br/>She looked up at the boys, sharp eyes betraying a glint of slight worry.<br/><br/>""Don't let me stay on there longer than a minute, right?""<br/><br/>Orion nodded and crouched at the edge of the bed, staring over the flat, linen plane.<br/><br/>August crawled onto the bed, already feeling the seeping emotions as she laid face up on it. She shut her eyes, focusing on the emotions. Instead of allowing them to slam into her, she rode through the feelings, letting them take her adrift as she felt her sense of self shift and ebb around the foreign emotions. Fear...she needed specifics. Calmness...too vague. Vague wasn't enough. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Give me a specific feeling dammit!</span><br/>Unknown...mystery...why was she here...what did it want. It? Her? Him? It. A shadowy figure. August twitched as the emotions surged up in her again, eyes shut tightly as her fingers dug into the blankets, threatening to rip the fabric. Her legs writhed slightly, not pain, but discomfort. Let it hit...the redhead took a deep breath before tensing again as she melded with the emotions fully. Her bright green eyes snapped open, staring at the ceiling, but clearly not in the present.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">What do you want from me...why me? I don't get it...</span><br/><br/>August's eyes fluttered for a moment before she bolted upright, sweating profusely.<br/><br/>""HE DIDN'T KNOW IT!""<br/><br/>The emotions were still embedded in her psyche as she threw herself off the bed and wobbled, suddenly latching onto Daniel for support and immediately leaping back like he was made of lava.<br/><br/>""NO NO, DON'T! Just! Stay away for a moment, shit!""<br/><br/>The redhead backed against the wall, eyes wide as she struggled to regain control for a moment. Panic, fear...not hers. His. Theirs. Ours. She rubbed her temples, looking like someone whose own brain was struggling to claw it's way out of her skull. Her speech was rapid and flustered, but alongside the fear, it seemed like...excitement?<br/><br/>""O-okay, kid didn't know the Kitsune at all, he was terrified of it, h-h-he had no idea why he was here, the fear is beyond primal, it's a completely foreign place to him and something he didn't understand. I-i-it kept him drugged, like REALLY drugged, like just WOW this was more intense than the hypnotism, he wasn't just suppressed, he was made like mentally handicapped by whatever was pumped into him, the amount of chemicals needed to suppress this much fear and anxiety would be ASTRONOMICAL or at least so potent as to potentially cause long term damage, this kid's neuron's would have been better off in a goddamn electric fence!""<br/><br/>The thrill of solving a problem had August in a rush, it seemed, but the kid's emotions were still clinging to her. She hated this place. This cabin was horrifying to her, it wasn't just the unnatural setting anymore, it was a prison, HER prison as far as she was concerned. Her empathy put her in the shoes of the missing boy, and all his trauma, fear, and sense of isolation was flooding her. She suddenly made a bolt for the stairs.<br/><br/>""Okay, okay, I don't think we should stay here anymore!""<br/><br/>Daniel held up his hands to the side and approached her slowly, keeping eye contact but made no move to touch her. ""August. Look at me. We can talk about that later, for now just find your center,"" Danny said, stopping a few feet away from her. ""We will leave as soon as possible, but you need to get your bearings. You're the oil, the memories are water. You may be close but you are seperate. Remember how you -not him- you came here. With us, your friends. Remember us meeting those times? When I was in my dad's police car when he found you messing with telephone lines? That's something that August does, not...him. Just take a breather, and we will walk out of here, and get this over with so you won't have to ever come back here. Sound good?"" As Daniel searched her eyes looking for any indication she may end up hurting herself he realized just how lucky he was. To always risk losing yourself whenever you came into contact with others -or where others had been- it was no wonder she preferred the company of machines.<br/><br/>Orion prowled the edge of the room as Danny tried to talk August down. The dust in the room spiraled into fractal, mantras of some eldritch mean. Daniel's voice echoed off the shadowed recesses in the room in Orion's ears, with sinister, aneseptic tones. His hand gestures seemed obscene for some reason. Orion tried to keep his focus on August instead. No, his focus should have been on Daniel. The boy had excellent bedside manner. Maybe he'd be a therapist, hostage negotiator, or used mattress salesman one day. But he was talking to August like she had just experienced a car wreck or a personal tragedy. But that wasn't quite right. This wasn't shock. This was a bad trip.<br/><br/>Orion hissed through his teeth with mostly mock irritation. Striding purposefully over to his fellow forayers into the fantastic, Orion enfolded one of August's hands with his own, squeezing firmly and forcing her hand up between their faces as he stared at her headlong. He reached his other hand up to her shoulder and pressed his index finger into her shoulder, almost to the point of pain. <br/><br/>""This is where your median nerve starts."" He spoke with deadly seriousness, as if the information he spoke was passed to him from smouldering shrubbery. Tracing a line down her arm he stopped and pressed his thumb and forefinger hard against a spot on the inside of her elbow. ""This is where the Ulnar nerve starts."" Moving his fingers further down, his touch became progressively softer until he opened her hand and splayed her palm upwards. ""Between them, they provide all of the nervous innervation of the human hand."" Orion kept his eyes locked hard on hers. ""Everything of import that any human has ever done. Every work wrought by the hand of man has been varied out by tiny, little electro-chemical signals running through those points. Every painting. Every sculpture. Every letter or note put to page. From dissertations on Mitocondrial Symbiont Theory to masturbation, almost everything you or anyone else has ever done has been because of those two nerves."" He gently closed her hand and wrapped his spidery fingers around it. ""You have them. I have them. That boy you were mainlining probably still has them too."" Orion straighted up from eye level. ""Now calm your tits, Batty, and let's get out of this scene.""<br/><br/>August fought the urge to claw Orion's eyes out, to yank her hand back and flee. Not from the emotions, not from the shock and residual, but from the fear that his touch would induce another wave of emotions and she'd change again. Daniel hadn't touched her, that was good...neither were doing much for her current situation but at least he didn't touch her. She gritted her teeth for a moment, instead trying to fathom why Orion was talking about her nerves. She opted instead to focus on his words...nervous innervation, nerves, electro-chemi-wait.<br/><br/>August's breathing slowed down, her brain seizing the reins from her emotions. Wiring. He was talking about human wiring. He was giving her mechanics to think about? Intentionally or not, he triggered her logic center, the part of August that never seemed to change regardless of who or what entered her mind. That irrepressible urge to tinker, to see the underlying mechanics and streamline. The redhead took another breath, then slowly, methodically reached up and placed one finger on Orion's chest.<br/><br/>""...next time I yell don't touch me, please don't just touch me. Thank you for helping me focus. I appreciate it, but just...mmm...thank you.""<br/><br/>Her hands slipped into her pockets as she looked up at him, all five feet of her fearless. She looked at Daniel.<br/><br/>""I'm okay now. Thanks for trying to calm me down during...that. Let's go, I'm over this place.""<br/><br/>With that, the redhead spun on one foot and tromped down the stairs, coming to a halt as Jackson finished his questions to Kanoa. August put one hand on her hip, wiped the residual sweat from her brow, and gave a huff.<br/><br/>""We can answer that outside right? We've been here long enough, the boy isn't here, the spirit isn't here, and if it returns, we can't guarantee it won't keep us here forever. Let's go.""<br/><br/>Almost as an afterthought, or maybe an aftershock, her eyes flicked to the door and a slight hint of pleading came into her voice.<br/><br/>""...please.""<br/><br/></div>"

Not only had Jackson left his position at the entrance, leaving Maxwell alone, but he had come in to call her reliability into question. ""You aren't sure if I know what I'm doing?"" She said, her tone teetering on the edge between saccharine and vexation. She shoved her hands into her pockets and let out a deep breath, attempting to calm herself down. She understood that he may be afraid, but that was no excuse to deflect his fears onto her. She turned towards the staircase, ready to check on the others, but they were just now coming down. <br/><br/>August wanted to leave, now. Kanoa ventured a guess that she had seen something with her ability that disturbed her. She felt a little guilty, it was her that put the girl in this situation in the first place, and it wasn't going to become any easier. <br/><br/>""Sure, we're done here."" The club leader headed for the entrance, exiting the house of living wood into the forest. Stopping a few meters away from the home she stood in front of Jackson.<br/><br/>""Jackson, I know what I'm doing. Surely I don't need to remind you that this is an investigation at the moment. Plans are not enacted in an investigation, instead, procedure is followed. If I explain everything at once to you all then there is a very good chance that it won't sink in. You aren't taught the history of a country all in one day, and let me assure you, you have an entire new world of history to learn.""<br/><br/>Kanoa sighed and ran a hand through her hair, and turned to the group that had searched the second floor. ""Anyway... What did you all discover?""</div>"

While he didn't think that he would actually try anything, the boy strided brusquely out the door (in part to clear a path for August) and placing himself between the two, his back to Jackson. Holding up his hands in a placating manner Danny said hurriedly, ""Look maybe he didn't phrase it the best way, but Jackson has got a point."" Jackson has a point? Since when did Danny agree with knife wielding maniacs? <span class=""bb-i"">Since they voice what we've all been thinking this entire time</span> a voice told Danny. Oh right. that. Coming to terms with the side he was taking Daniel tried to take the most diplomatic approach as possible, treating the tiny woman as if she were a Kodiak bear. ""Look, what you know about this...secret world doesn't matter when you don't tell us. Not only do we not know what we're doing, but information that we may have is not only false, but misleading since it's come from a century's long game of telephone. Police procedure comes from that knowledge being drilled into people's heads at academies that make officers qualified. It's what separates detectives from an angry mob. I understand that we're on the clock with our John Doe, but if we head into this in the dark, we're going to just end up with a whole bunch of more hurt people. Not everyone knows who Eugene Francois Vidocq is, but everyone knows that tracking footprints is important."" Looking away Danny said more quietly, ""Look Boss, I'm on board no matter what. But half these people only met you yesterday. Heck, I'm pretty sure I saw two people run off on the way over here to go make out or something. You don't need to give the principles of thaumaturgy or how the position of the stars affect transmutating metals for now. Just enough so that where ever we head next, we won't end up just like the boy. I'm sure there's stuff that you can go over while we walk back, right?""<br/><br/> Now sure that no one would immediately be strangled, Daniel walked over to August and pulled out his thermos and poured a cup of cocoa. ""Thanks to this little lady we now know that this was a full blown kidnapping."" Putting the cup into her hands (much as an EMT would) Danny then nodded his head towards Orion saying, ""And Orion over here figured out that this kitsune has been preparing for this for a while, as well as places they might frequent. However at best it would require a stake-out and canvasing the area which would take too much time. What about you guys? Did you find anything interesting?""<br/> </div>"

He tongued the back of his teeth thoughtfully.<br/><br/>""Sure thing, Batty,"" he replied to what he rather sapiecentrically thought of as an empty room.<br/><br/>Following behind, the black sheepdog that he was, he watched his footing on the strangely twisting, interwoven branches that served for a stair. The mention of his name snapped his head up. There seemed to be a tension in the room. He scanned faces and body language for meaning. Then he thought better of it. This was not his scene. It would work itself out or not. He listened to Danny. Mister Reasonable. The rest of them were still the Greeks to Orion. He couldn't make much of their hide or their hair. But that would work itself out. Or not. He looked over at August. He really didn't have a handle on any of this really. Thing were not smooth. Why weren't they smooth. He frowned at the thermos in her hands. Something clicked in Orion's brain. Smiling self-congratulatory, he reached over the redhead and plucked the thermos from her hands. Taking a sip he hummed appreciatively. Walking over with the container close to his face, warm steam on his chin he maneuvered through the entangled group. The tension had drawn the walls in. Slipping between Jackson and Konoa he placed a hand on the former's shoulder in what he hoped was a solid, reassuring way. It would work itself out. He smiled at Mary as he wiggled around her to the far wall. She seemed to have her blood up. He reached his pack. <br/><br/>Placing the thermos down on the dirt carefully. He rummaged through his tightly packed bag. Of course they were near the bottom. Reaching past the rest of his belongings he plunged his hand deep into the bottom of the canvas pack. Finally, and with as much flourish as possible he retrieved the objects of his quest. Thick, woolen mittens covered in vaguely Native American-esque knitting patterns whipped through the earthy air. Orion picked up the thermos with his other hand and reversed his trek. Patting Konoa this time he smiled at Max. He had no idea what was up with Max, but it would probably work itself out.<br/><br/>Finally returning to August he proffered the mittens to her.<br/><br/>""Here. They're new."" He looked at her expectantly pleased. Like a dog; a sheepdog.</div>"

I'M NOT GOING THROUGH THIS SHIT A SECOND TIME!!"" Jackson responded to Kanoa before Danny intervened, as her answer did nothing to calm his nerves, and everything to to set them off. <span class=""bb-i"">God dammit if I'm going to let her drag me any further without some reassurance that she isn't leading us to our deaths</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">She's just a foolish little girl, how can she provide any such promises, Jackson, she'll lead you to your grave.</span></span> Jackson went rigid as Apophsis spoke to him, which coincided with when Orion came over to give him a reassuring pat in his shoulder, just barely keeping his face from giving away any emotion. <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Come now, Jacky-boy, you've already been through hell once, why let her drag you back into the horror you've only just begun to recover from.

A part of him wanted to let Apophsis kill Kanoa, was convinced that following her would only lead to another night of agony and death. A bigger part of him, however, knew that doing that would be insane, that this was murder he was contemplating, and the fact he was even considering it was sickening. Jackson backed away from everyone until his back hit a tree someways away, his breathing becoming erratic as he fell into a familiar pit of self-loathing, anger, and sadness, though anger was the main emotion he was feeling, a cold hatred he held for Apophsis that transcended everything else he had ever felt. Now, more than ever, he wanted this spirit out of him, because he knew that it was changing him, draining his humanity and replacing it with something else, something dark and sinister. And as days go by, he found himself caring less and less. <span class=""bb-i"">This is no way to live, slowly being hollowed out from the inside, feeling your humanity slipping away. And yet, you won't ever let me end it, will you?</span> Apophsis only chuckled in response.</div>"

Instead he simply got out of the guys way. Being angry was never productive. But doing nothing with that anger was even worse. At least by giving his anger a voice he would get it out into the open. With that said Maxwell had considered following after Jackson just in case he went a little overboard, which with the guy in question was a very real possibility, however in the end had opted against sticking his nose in any further. Besides, with Jackson gone it was left entirely to him to watch the entrance of the ‘tree house’. Which was not entirely a bad deal considering the uncomfortable vibes that he had gotten from the place. It didn't want him in there and the feeling was, as they say, mutual.<br/><br/>And in the end it didn't matter either way since Kanoa came trailing out of the house a few moments later with the others in tow, including Jackson. He listened with rapt attention to the various details that were offered by different members of the group, some more fantastical than others. But considering the ‘talents’ of those assembled not entirely beyond belief. And the more he listened the more sinister the house started to feel. Less like it was rejecting him and more that it meant him physical harm. But also the less nervous he became. The explanations were going fine for a little while, however Jackson seemed to be dancing on the edge of whatever tightrope he seemed to be metaphorically straddling. <br/><br/>He watched as Jackson backed away, consumed by another internal battle that must have been raging within. Unfortunately he didn't know how to help him, at least for the moment. He turned toward Kanoa. <font color=""gold"">“I'm not saying that I agree with Jackson entirely but it’s easy to understand where he’s coming from. Learning through experience has its merits. No doubt. But not all us can go on faith alone,”</font> he said in a neutral tone. He raised his hands in a conciliatory manner and looked between Jackson and Kanoa. <br/><br/><font color=""gold"">“How about this. For now we just carry on as is, at least until we get back to town. After that, maybe we can have a little talk, clear the air, that kind of thing. And perhaps then you can show us something a little more concrete than theory and folklore. It doesn't have to be much, books, images, documents, things that have been recorded by those who know about this kind of stuff. How about it, Leader?”</font> Maxwell had already spoken more in the last few days than he did in the average week, or at least that was how it felt to him. It was taxing. <br/></div>"

She wasn't often one to respond to intimidation and imposing behavior, however, when Jackson screamed at her a shiver went down her spine as if the hands of death were strangling her. Her eyes narrowed, turning from their mopey appearance to sharp and focused. Jackson didn't scare her, he was just a frightened teenager that didn't know how to deal with the unknown. It was what was inside of him that set her on edge. His grey voice, his ambiguous grey voice changed when he screamed. What color was it? She had never seen anything like it before, the color drew in her attention like a black hole, she felt like a deer in the headlights of an oncoming truck.<br/><br/>She calmed down as she realized there was no danger, Jackson had control for now and that gave her time to think about what he said... But what was there to think about? She believed what she was doing was right, and his words did not convince her otherwise.<br/><br/>She could feel Maxwell turn towards her, she wasn't looking forward to hearing what he had to say on the matter. She didn't make eye contact with him as he spoke, yet she still listened, albeit halfheartedly. She couldn't help it, this situation was looking and sounding too familiar... She suddenly felt like a fourteen year old again, a freshman full of obtuse ideas and far too much enthusiasm, enough to cause people to pay attention to her in much the same way drivers did traffic cones. <br/><br/>""I..."" She started, not sure how to finish. Mary did it for her, speaking on her behalf. She watched her speak, confused at first, but then she realized what was happening, it was something she was not accustomed to. Someone was standing up for her, rather, trying to understand her. A smile attempted to creep onto her face, but she quickly wiped it away like a milk mustache. She would need to thank Mary later.<br/><br/>Kanoa cleared her throat, and pulled the rest of the vials from her pockets. ""As Mary said, these are potions. Enough were made for all of us. I assure you, I was going to tell you pertinent information when the time called for it. These potions will allow us to breathe underwater for approximately twenty four hours. This is important because we will be heading to the nearby lake. I believe that's where the Fox spirit has taken our missing student.""<br/><br/>Kanoa passed out the blue vials to each member of the club, making sure to tell them to be careful with it. ""With the information you've all gathered, I've got a pretty clear picture of the kidnapping."" She said, beginning to walk. ""The spirit is a being that needs to feed on life energy, something easily gained from living things. However, the forests in the area have been scarce as of late for some reason. This caused the Fox to become desperate, and even attempted to sustain them self on the trees here."" Kanoa shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. ""But plants cannot provide much energy, it would be like us trying to live off of grapes. It may keep the spirit alive, but they will be weak.""<br/><br/>Kanoa plucked a hanging leaf from a branch and twirled it in her hand. ""So the Fox resorted to using magic potions to enhance it's powers, as shown by the plants on the first floor. That was circumstantial evidence, but with what August told me, I know for sure that the Fox used potions to drug and hypnotize the boy."" Kanoa nodded. ""Good job, not bad so far for our first case.""<br/><br/>It wasn't long before they reached the lake, it was a large body of still blue water that reflected the sky like a mirror. It almost felt like a shame to disturb the calm surface. ""There's a cave entrance in this lake, not many people know because the cave is well... rather hard to get to without the proper gear. But since we'll be breathing just fine it's no problem."" Kanoa yanked the cork out of the vial in her possession and downed the azure liquid inside. Right away it took effect, she winced in minor pain and held the sides of her neck. <br/><br/>She lowered her hands, revealing newly formed gills. She looked back to the rest of the club. ""Don't worry, it's not permanent."" </div>"

Just done. Done with being touched despite all protests. Done with things being forced into her hands. Done with dealing with schizophrenic teenagers and demons and done with everyone acting like any of them made sense anymore. The thermos pushed into her hands had given a surge of unnecessary excitement from Daniel's past. Orion made a grandiose show of what she assumed was an attempt to help her. She took the mittens and promptly dropped them to one side, already feeling a creep of emotions from various sources. Nothing was new, if it was touched, it affected her, even slightly. The fabric of the mittens, the stitching, the packaging, everything had been handled at some point. She stared blankly at the arguing faces. Mary stepping up for Kanoa. Jackson barely holding it together. Daniel talking like he was Batman.<br/><br/>Broken wires. August shut down, her eyes glassing over as she pulled back, crushing everything behind her fortress of logic. She ignored the others, hand tightening on her cellphone as she pulled her beanie lower over her head, and stepped away from the group, the writhing mess of emotions. She wanted to go home. She wanted to just cut ties with this group and forget it ever happened. She wanted to go tinker with her machines, with the cold metal that she had gotten so used to. Those emotions weren't anything new. Whether they had been handled or not was a moot point, the emotions that tinged them were hers now, regardless of origin. They were familiar. Logically...logically she should stay and see this through. A missing boy and now proof that they could potentially help him. A moral dilemma? Not really. The argument was in favor of playing the hero. August didn't owe this boy anything. But she could help. These broken wires could help. But the biggest factor, what if it was her, missing, lost, scared, drugged. She'd want someone to help her.<br/><br/>""This is important because we will be heading to the nearby lake. I believe that's where the Fox spirit has taken our missing student.""<br/><br/>Panic. A lake? Breathing? Drowning. Smothering. Suffocation. Ignoring the burning question of how Kanoa managed to make such powerful potions when she had asked Mary to help her even identify the herbs in the first place, not uncommon, she could have known the names and not the appearance, or always had them labeled when around her, August jerked and felt her heart start racing. She followed, trailing behind the group. Her courage gave out at the sight of the lake, and she stopped a large distance away from it.<br/><br/>""No.""<br/><br/>She held her arms tightly, green eyes locked on the water. The magic and sheer miraculous growth of gills on Kanoa, instead of filling her with wonder and delight, instead only flooded her mind with images of the gills giving out at the bottom of the lake. Smothering. Fading conscious. The pain of breathing water, of her lungs filling up, of every cough causing more and more to enter and stop her breathing, of every silent scream not even causing bubbles to rise anymore. Of losing everything. Of becoming nothing. Losing control of your limbs while still being conscious and screaming and screaming and screaming for someone to just take your hand and pull you out.<br/><br/>""I'm not going in. I can't swim. And before ANY of you touch me or try to change my mind, if you even attempt to drag me closer I will fucking hurt you, so just don't touch me. I don't care about the potion, I don't-I just...I'm not going in there.""<br/><br/>Her legs gave out and she slumped down, sitting heavily on the dirt as she stared fixated on the lake. It wasn't so much the water itself that scared her. She could be around water. She could splash in a pool as long as it was shallow. It was the fear that someone would try to take her into the water. That someone would force her, that this group would ignore her pleas and drag her in.<br/><br/>""I'll wait up here. I'll be look out. I'm not going in there and don't you dare try to make me. I'll stay up here and watch your stuff.""<br/><br/>The redhead was NOT going any closer, and she looked ready to bite the throat out of anyone who attempted to change her mind, physically or otherwise.</div>"

There is no way in hell that that is an unreasonable question,”</font> Maxwell said calmly, shaking his head in disbelief that his comment was being taken with such hostility. He had thought that he had been quite reasonable, his intention having been to simply calm the tension. Instead he had managed to inflame certain members. He guessed that something must have happened between Mary and Kanoa to invoke such a response. Not his business. <br/><br/><font color=""gold"">“So as inspiring as the whole magic tree house is my point still stands. After we’re done with this little adventure I want to…you know what, never mind. I’m not going to argue with you,”</font> he said coldly. <font color=""gold"">“But I’m not going to apologise either, so let’s just leave it at that,”</font> he said, taking the potion carefully from Kanoa and holding the vial up to the light, before dropping the potion carefully into his jacket pocket. The sight of gills on Kanoa’s neck made his own neck itch. He endeavoured not to give in to the sensation, which only made it worse.<br/><br/>It was as they approached the lake that August seemed to lose it, as if some mental dam had just burst, releasing everything at once. Maxwell had no idea what had happened, or why, as he had spent next to no time alone with her, never mind in conversation. In short he knew nothing about her, save for her ability. Not that it would have mattered either way. As was his natural inclination he immediately moved toward her but stopped before he reached her. It had been his intention to reach out toward her but her words stopped him dead in his tracks. She was deadly serious. He could hear it in her voice and see it in her eyes. So instead of going any closer he knelt down in front of her a good distance away, well outside of arms reach.<br/><br/>He smiled warmly at August. <font color=""gold"">“Well then, I guess I'm on guard duty again huh? There’s no way I'm leaving someone up here on their own, even if they tell me too.”</font> Maxwell stood up and put his hands in his pockets, a gesture to show that he wasn't going to try and touch her in any way, shape or form. <font color=""gold"">“If I get too close don’t hesitate to tell me to piss off, k? I'm not that easy to offend.”</font><br/></div>"

Whenever he thought back to the past, it always went back to that night, and that made it very easy for Apophsis to take control. Something that he really didn't need right now. Reaching into his jacket, he pulled out his silver switchblade, looking over the intricate details in the engraving, the glistening of it's sharp edge. He placed his thumb down on the blade and drew it down, hissing slightly at the pain as it cut his skin. It was a shallow cut, but deep enough to draw blood, the crimson liquid rising up from the cut, pooling slightly before the wound overflowed and it dripped down from the appendage to the forest floor.<br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Marvelous, isn't it, the feeling of cutting flesh. Take this blade and slice that bossy bitch to pieces. She thinks she's better than you are, you can see it in her eyes, so pull them out and devoured them right in front of these fools. Make them run, make them scream, save them from their doom by becoming the monster, give in to me and just let your mind fade into nothingness.</span></span> </font>Apophsis' snake-like whisper, instead of drawing him into the insanity, brought forth a deep anger, and from that anger, he felt strength pool into him. He hated the world, the world hated he him, and he hated himself, a cycle that began with him, so why not end it. Any cycle of hatred couldn't be good for those involved, so in this line of thinking, the world would be a better place for him. . . and he be better off with out the world to fuck with his head.<br/><br/>Taking the blade in a solid grip, he steadied his breathing emptied his mind of all thoughts but one. It wasn't complex, nor overly meaningful in the long run for anybody. It was a simple question that he asked himself every time he did tried this. <font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">Will anyone miss you if you die?</span></font> and the answer was always the same. His father and mother had always preferred his older sisters in everything, leaving him to the way side no matter what he did to catch their attention. They were the successful ones, they never had any flaws, while he was the one who only got their love, their attention, their pity when he all of his friends, his real family, had been murdered. And even that hadn't lasted, as he hadn't told his parents about what he was doing to day, where he would be, or that he was even going out. He had just left, and even though they knew his number, they hadn't even tried calling once. <font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">I'm nothing to anyone, not anyone here, not anyone anywhere.</span></font><br/><br/><font color=""#ed1c24""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Don't be that way Jacky-boy, I'll always need you, you know that.</span></span></font><br/><br/>Looking at the blade, he remembered what Mary had said to him, to have this demon inside him 'check it's privilege', as she had put it. Show Apophsis who was really in control. He began to spin the knife deftly around his finger, not really paying attention as he stared off into space. <font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">You're right, Apophsis, you do need me, don't you?</span></font> Jackson chuckled, twirling the knife one more time, before he suddenly jabbed it right at his right eye as fast and as hard as he could. He let out a gasp as the blade bit deeply into flesh and even nicking bone, a good deal of blood coming from the wound. Anyone looking back would only see hims sitting there, holding his eye with one hand, and an etheral claw jutting from his elbow with the wrist of his other hand in it's grasp, soon making him drop the bloody knife it held. <br/><br/>Still holding his eye, he got up from his place on the ground, the claw fading into mist to recede back into his arm, and picked up the blade only to pocket it soon after. From his mouth came a dry chuckle, his visible eye holding a sense of victory as he walked forward, dropping his other hand to show the damage that had been done. His eye, trailing a fading silver flame, was on harmed, but there was a rather ugly gash carved into his cheek, and it was bleeding somewhat profusely, though the glow was soon reinvigorated as a ghostly version of the cheek formed over it, applying pressure to the area and keeping it any more blood from coming out, even shifting in some veins so that the blood could still flow through.<br/><br/><font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">Don't ever forget that, Apophsis, you need me a lot more than I need you, and I'm a hormonal, depressive, neglected, suicidal teenager. Not a good host when you think about it, is it?</span></font> Another chuckle came from him as he walked on to the beach where the others where, probably thinking he was losing it. He wasn't sure they weren't right about that. <font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">So you better keep on your fucking toes, and check your <span class=""bb-b"">damn privilege</span>, or else I might decide to use something a bit more certain than a knife. Like a train, or jumping of a bridge, maybe even a cliff if I'm really feeling dramatic. Think you can prevent that, ya demon bastard.</span></font> The lack of response from inside him made his smile all the wider.<br/><br/>Walking up to Mary, he gave her a whopping bear hug, actually spinning her around a little before setting her down and holding her shoulders with a large grin on his face. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I can't thank you enough for that advice, seriously. Hell, if it wouldn't be awkward as hell, I'd kiss you right now. Now then, since I was dealing with an internal crisis on how much my life sucks, I missed all of what was just said, so can somebody run me through it again, and is August all right, she's not looking too good.""</font> He let go off Mary and started digging into his back to pullout his first aid get, the ghost cheek fading a way, followed by a sudden gush of blood from his wound, though he quickly stifled it with some cotton, using his other hand to douse some cotton balls in alcohol, then attached them to some gauze tape, before applying it to the wound, That would do for a temporary fix for now, he'd have to stitch it up when he got home. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Man, that is going to leave an ugly as fuck scar.""</font> He absentmindedly commented as he fixed himself up, not really paying attention to what anyone else was doing at the moment.</div>"

It had only been five minutes later and he had forgotten her condition, too swept up in the wonder and mystery that surrounded him. <span class=""bb-i"">Bullshit</span> he chided himself, <span class=""bb-i"">you may be using this as an excuse but you've been a selfish asshole before you met the others. Face it, it's not being the sheriff's son that drives people away it's the fact that you- </span> Danny clamped down on the thought. There was enough negativity going around already without Daniel adding to it. Besides if he were to 'flare' his abilities while in this mentality he'd do more harm than good. With that thought the boy gave a nervous glance to the branches above them and stepped as far out of their path without retreating from the group. Biting his lip Danny instead occupied his mind with the myriad of questions that popped up. <br/><br/>What was Jackson saying about not wanting this ""to happen again?"" And what was Mary saying about him having schizophrenic demons? It could be Mary was just talking about what started to seem was a habit of acting out but the way she said it left him wondering if it was something more. After all, Kanoa had literally just grown gills in front of them. Speaking of, it seemed out of character for Mary to actually give a shit. She was a whole lot like Orion in she tried to act cooler than a cucumber in a bowl of menthol, except she usually had a literal smoke screen to aid her in appearing aloof. Between her flushed skin, dilated eyes and impassioned speech Danny could swear that she was hot for teacher but dismissed the thought. After all, who becomes infatuated with someone so quickly? Whatever. What they did when they weren't on the clock wasn't his business until it caused harm to their merry band of misanthropes. <br/><br/>Whether or not that was what was currently happening was up to debate and so Daniel held his tongue and instead asked Kanoa something that seemed more pertinent to the situation at hand. ""It's good to know it's temporary how long does it last? We should probably know so we don't end up as bloated grey blobs heading down river. And while it's obvious by the fact that you aren't dancing around right now that it's a counter-current gas exchange that also ensures that we won't have to worry about hypothermia -thanks to the wonders of endothermy- how do we plan to see? Does this plasmid also enable the ability to see underwater clearly? Or in low-light vision? How about water pressure? While I'd like to think we aren't going anywhere that could crush a human's body, we already know that this monster is desperate, not to mention sloppy. Seriously though, how long does this thing last?""<br/><br/>Rubbing the back of his neck Danny added. ""The lake is a while away on foot, and I don't like the idea of us burning time when you already took a swig of your own potion. If we head back we can all pile into my truck. With it, and my power we'll be able to get their fast enough to swing by people's houses and pick up needed supplies- like swim-suits. Really I just don't want to go into this creature's lair when exhausted."" <span class=""bb-i"">After all. If we're going to be exhausted and in the dark about what's going on why should we do the same thing with a Japanese monstrosity?</span><br/><br/>""And is anyone else weirded out by how unweirded out we are by this?""</div>"

The screen door slapped shut as her grip on it loosened, Mary turned to face her mother, a hapless sort of smile painted on a cringing face. <br/><br/>A child caught stealing from the cookie jar. <br/><br/>Several paces behind her stood a tall maternal figure, arms crossed, dressed in pink kitty pajama bottoms and a white tank top. Mary turned slowly, the soft pat of her all stars against the beige linoleum kitchen floors sounding like explosions in her ears compared to the silence of the young morning. She offered up a humorless chuckle and a slight shrug in response, both motions blended with a yawn. She really needed a cup of coffee...<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Umm, y'know... nowhere?</font>""<br/><br/>The Mother, Diana Janicot was an eerily perfect older version of Mary. If the woman were to cut her longer, graying hair you may just mistake her for Mary's taller sister-- the only difference between the two was skin tone. If Mary was tiramisu with a thin layer of whipped cream, then Diana was a cup of coffee with just a <span class=""bb-i"">bit</span> too much creamer. <br/><br/>One was bitter, black liquid sorrow revitalizing and the other was sweet, fluffy all the flavor of coffee without the burn risk-- both were well traveled and vaguely ethnic.<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender"">Nowhere?</font>"" Diana replied, an edge to her voice, concern in her eyes, ""<font color=""lavender"">Miryam, is it a boy?</font>""<br/><br/>Mary's reflex was a weak scoff.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Right.

We owe it to our ancestors to keep the bloodline going.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Mom, I don't even...</font>""<br/><br/>Diana leaned against the counter as she began to speak, a reminiscent tone in her voice, ""<font color=""lavender"">You think I didn't have those crushes in my day? I've known hundreds of women in my lifetime Maryam, perhaps thousands. But those flings wouldn't have kept the Wabanaki blood strong in the Janicot clan!</font>""<br/><br/>Mary tilted her head, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Wait, two women is enough for a clan?</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender"">Hush, Maryam! The point is-- it wasn't easy to track down your father, a full blooded Wabanaki Indian-- and I knew he wasn't going to stay-- that didn't matter though. All I've ever wanted was you. The spirits willed it, hundreds of years ago-- with each new life we create Maryam, the Morning Dawn Men live on. <span class=""bb-i"">We</span> live on, in <span class=""bb-i"">you</span>.</font>"" By now Diana's hand was planted firmly against Mary's chest.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm just saying maybe I'd be honoring the spirits or whatever if two women can be considered a clan.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender""><span class=""bb-i"">MARYAM.</span></font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">What? It feels like maybe my Wabanaki heritage is telling me to find some dime and start a new tribe or whatever with her. Hey, if two women can be a clan can they also be a tribe?

Can I call it quest?</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">MARYAM, I AM SERIOUS.</span></span></font>"" Her voice boomed.<br/><br/>Mary gave a weak shrug, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Okay...? Christ, sorry.</font>"" <br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender"">Thank you.</font>"" One second the fury of a tempest, the next, a still lake.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">It's whatever...</font>"" Her mother was just one of those people. She was fine with going on and on about the importance of ancestry and spirits or whatever-- but <span class=""bb-i"">spirits</span> forbid you want to talk to her about something personal... like sexuality, or perhaps dreams, or even with something as simple as conversational humor... She'd snap. She was a woman who lived in her own reality, and after a lifetime of dealing with it, Mary knew exactly how to lie to her and game it. ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm just going out for a school club, it's really not a big deal.</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender"">A club!</font>"" Diana narrowed her eyes with suspicion, ""<font color=""lavender"">This early?

I want to know the name of whoever is worth it to get you up this early on a Saturday! I may know this kid's mother...</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Ohh...</font>"" That was unexpected. Mary paused in thought as she inched out of the widening crack she had made in the door, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Kanoa? You've probably never heard of her</font>""<br/><br/>Suddenly, a strange look came across Diana's face. As if she had just swallowed something sour, her eyes flicked away from her daughter's, ""<font color=""lavender"">Hmmm.</font>""<br/><br/>90% outside now, Mary risked asking, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Is something wrong?</font>""<br/><br/>""<font color=""lavender"">Oh!</font>"" The gaiety returned to Diana, ""<font color=""lavender"">No, nothing my Maryam! Enjoy your day, don't be too late getting back!</font>""<br/><br/>And with that, came a sigh of relief. Mary was outside.

The smoke reminded her of the aura she had within her, the lilac colored fog that she could bring from within her into the physical world. Kanoa had seemed surprised with how quickly Mary picked up on the natural ability, thinking on it though, it felt about as easy to Mary as lighting one of her lavender beauties. What was it that brought about this feeling? This wasn't an altschmerz, the thought was a new blackguard on her consciousness. <br/><br/>Had she smoked that much? That it's hueful essence had become an indistinguishable part of <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> on some pata'phsyical level. Was she to believe the match in was a coincidence? Both like Barney's hide. A consequate of the anonymous Prometheus to her in night terrors. In a moment, it didn't surprise her too much.<br/><br/>In another moment, it concerned her as the group walked through the forest.<br/><br/>Lachesism struck as she inhaled again of the burning herbs. She dearly wanted to cough. To feel some negative sensation that may instantaneously condition some Pavlovian response in her crown. She thought of coughing. Not quite. She thought of thinking of coughing, perhaps thinking of the thought of the negative immediate response to smoke might have some effect? Smoke was something that the Mary within the thoughts of the Mary in the thoughts of the Mary who thought of coughing for the Mary in the lowest layer of the meta stacked Pavlovian-Tolstoy cake she was creating would find repulsive. If she thought it was. She didn't. <br/><br/>She was thinking of thinking of thinking of thinking of coughing. Meanwhile, Maxwell huffed after his hissy fit.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">""And today, I thought about nothing.""</span><br/><br/>That the thick vapor might not feel like it was some part of her-- she already felt that had at least two parts to many. Dualism in flaws was something she could handle, quintessential to one of ambedo, some would say. At least two.<br/><br/>Three though-- wouldn't that would be a strike? In like, sports? Like three strikes to score a touchdown on the green with a soccerball... with a hockey stick pigskin? Then the bigman slamdunk alleyoops for the Nascar?<br/><br/>She simply didn't... couldn't know enough about it all. Sports included. <span class=""bb-i"">This</span> was adding on to Mary's collection of unanswered question her occhiolic mind was only mildly perturbed as gathering in the smokey dust of her subconscious. She trusted Kanoa-- or maybe Mary was biased, maybe dualism associated with having ones blood run like a drive of carmine jackrabbits chased by Mourning Star braves had something to do with it. A hand made it's way to her cheek; warmth associated with the purple fire she could bring to her hands met the warmth of blood gushing under the dermis.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">What eustress!? Gucci.</span><br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Jesus Christ, shut up you nerd...</span><br/><br/>Mary's egoic sphere was established as she listened to her music. The group walked in silence to the location where they'd, presumably, be swimming. The sounds of nature, 120 something pound feet crunching temperate leaves, and hormonal huffs were lost on her for a moment. Words bombarded her ears through magic earbuds, the other music was lost on her, she wasn't even considering it-- perhaps to the chargin' of John Cage and Moondog. The lavender essence was who she was.<br/><br/>She didn't know much.<br/><br/>She didn't <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> know anything!<br/><br/>But she knew that she was comfortable telling herself that. <br/><br/><div class=""bb-right""><span class=""bb-i"">""Liberal libertine Maryam,<br/>likely living loosely,<br/>lines of la gaudière lavender,<br/>lovely-- la cuna legs,<br/>liberosic lols, like, laksmi,<br/>loving lacking loads of liability. <br/>Life is latesummer.

August was having nothing to do with the swimming mission... monachopsis perhaps? A tilt of Mary's head indicated that Mary was interested in her-- a socially accepted level of interest. She wouldn't ask, of course. She couldn't break the medium of existence between the two to actually ask. August seemed plucky enough. Whatever it was, it probably wouldn't be helped with pixie dust and pop culture references.<br/><br/>A swim sounded lovely to Mary. She was tired, the brisk water would probably help wake her out, and she <span class=""bb-i"">might</span> have another heart attack if she had another cup of coffee, no matter how damn fine.<br/><br/>Mary was lifted off the ground. She didn't react, besides the derpy stare that naturally occurs when on is spun around by the fellow who moments ago was speaking to himself. As Mary registered completely what was happening, she was set down-- she was face to face with a smiling Jackson. His pupils were glittering, bottomless and opaque and the smile, to her, was genuine. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I can't thank you enough for that advice, seriously.

""<font color=""#be81f7"">...It's stuff to make you question the entire narrative of your life."" Now kneeling, Mary took off her shoes, At least, It's what I'm feeling. I don't know, guess I'm projecting? Anyway...</font>""<br/><br/>--Narc anecdoche. Was all that really apropos here, Daniel?<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Nah.</font>"" Mary responded, a pile sat near August, her shoes, socks and electronics all laid in a neat little nest, she removed her jacket, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Who cares? Just go for it and don't do anything retarded. The more we overthink, the more time the fox has the kid.</font>"" <br/><br/>And with that, Mary charged for the water. Bracing herself for coolness-- the moment before she leap from shore, in one swift moment, off came tank top-- and then she jumped for it, flying through the air for an instant before splashing down. <br/><br/>As she surfaced, she registered two feelings; icy coolness, and renewed. Her deadpan resumed. ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Do you get it? I'm like Pussy Riot.</font>""</div>"

She couldn't rightly say she was surprised the girl didn't want to go on this underwater excursion, in fact, she was close to asking her to go home. Her sensory ability was a heavy burden to carry. Being forced to experience the feelings of others clearly took a toll on her mental state. From what she understood of her ability, those that possessed it tended to be reclusive individuals, as forced empathy engendered hermit like behavior. Knowing this, Kanoa was surprised by how extroverted August could be. She still seemed to prefer the company of electronics, perhaps because they had no emotions to pawn onto her.<br/><br/>""You've done enough already, I won't force you to come, August."" Kanoa said, glancing back to the lake. Maxwell decided to stay behind with August, she simply nodded, there was no reason he absolutely had to come.<br/><br/>She turned to Daniel, who was asking a multitude of questions regarding the specifics of the waterbreathing potion. ""Twenty four hours, remember?"" She said. ""As for everything else, the potion takes care of it. We'll be able to see, talk, and hear just fine. I would stop applying logic to these things if I were you. Magic tends to break traditional laws of physics. The more you try to rationalize what you see using basic  scientific method the less you'll understand."" Kanoa cupped her chin and looked down at the still lake surface. ""Hmm, I suppose you'll have to learn an entirely new method of thinking.""<br/><br/>She looked back to see Jackson twirling Mary around for some reason, she really wasn't paying much attention to their conversation. Jackson was bleeding, for some other reason. Should she even bother asking? She had been keeping an eye on him to make sure he didn't hurt anyone, she didn't know how to stop him from hurting himself. She let out a sigh and started to remove her school uniform. Thankfully she had on undergarments that were indistinguishable from something you'd see someone working out in on a hot day. Black compression shorts and a sports bra that left much to the imagination. <br/><br/>Mary was the first to jump in, leaping into the lake with the flourish of a kid at summer camp. ""Ya know when I first heard the name Pussy Riot I expected to see a group of cats acting belligerent, super disappointed."" Kanoa waded into the water beside Mary, and looked back to the others.<br/><br/>""Alright, let's try to stick together everyone, it shouldn't take long to reach the cave."" She said. She dunked her head under the water, and attempted to take a breath. It was a strange feeling breathing underwater, it felt as if she should be drowning as she took in water. However, it was only a reflex that soon went away. She swam deeper into the lake, stopping when she noticed something large beneath her. It was a sunken fishing boat, pale and green from natural weathering. Kanoa floated down onto the bow, planting her feet on the ship. She could see the cave entrance not too far away, once the others arrived they would head inside.</div>"

Daniel murmured under his breath. He knew she was right. The sooner he came to terms with him knowing nothing the sooner he'd be at peace. For the first time in his life, Daniel may have had to admit to not knowing what to do and he hated it. This feeling of helplessness, of having no control. Ever since he figured out his powers, and that they may very well have caused his mother's death he had focused on never letting it happen again, by purifying mind, body and soul. He had found training in Krav Maga a local deli owner who was an ex-Mossad agent who had come to America to be with his husband. He had worked at libraries and his aunt's store reading on religion and philosophy and the occult, trying to figure out where his powers came from and how to suppress them. He had given it his all in all aspects of his life to take care of his few living relatives at the expense of living his own life and for what? For all of it to be gone in a flash as some maniac pixie girl to come along and tell him what he had always feared: None of what he did mattered. And now he was going to do one of the things he had feared most. Being in his underpants in front of a group of strangers. <br/><br/>Mixing the potion into what was left of his cocoa, Daniel noted, ""Not even the taste of rice milk can hide this stuff."" Looking away Daniel started blushing head to toe and asked sheepishly, ""Uh, do you guys mind looking away? I'd uh, prefer it if I wasn't watched."" before he began to strip, keep his eyes glue to the ground, afraid that if he looked up he could see their jeering. While one could describe his physique as somewhere between a dancer and a Greek statue the lad like every other teenager had been self-conscious of his appearance. Now down to his silver and black compression shorts (which were much more revealing than he'd like) the young traceur sifted through his bag to grab his khukri and the web-weave scabbard/belt it was in. Strapping it around his waist, he twisted too and fro, before doing a standing backflip into a planche. Landing on his palms, he proceeded to stand up on his finger tips holding it for about half a minute, before widening his knees to about the width of his shoulders and slowly going into a handstand, letting legs dangle loosely over his head before 'popping' off his hands and tucking forward to land on his feet. Satisfied that his mobility wasn't hindered Danny dashed forward and did a Kick The Moon straight into the water. <br/><br/>Shocked by the cold of it, Daniel sucked in water but found that there was no sense of choking, let alone drowning. It had seemed that between his breaking the surface and his sucking the water in the potion had taken effect. Taking in a few more gulps he could feel his sense of dread slowly ebbing away, marveling at the feeling of warm water hit his shoulders in pulses not unlike exhaling. Feeling the lines of his gills Daniel was fascinated by the way they acted on their own accord. If he weren't feeling them now, he'd never know they were there. Breaking the surface with a gasp Daniel pushed his shaggy hair out of his eyes and said with a smile plastering his face, ""Alright, even I got to admit, this is pretty fucking amazing.""</div>"

The man stood in the center of the main room of the tree house, his arms held out either side almost in a beckoning gesture, trails of ethereal red light coiling down from around his arms like the tendrils of a plant. His eyes were closed, his lips moving subtly and silently as he communed with something that had no voice that could be heard. It answered his questions, asking nothing in return. He smiled, the coils of ethereal light fading like the mist that they so resembled. He opened his eyes and looked around once more, with new found understanding confirming that which he had already suspected. The young lad had most definitely been here, but he was here no more. As had the brats whose presence he had felt long before his arrival.<br/><br/>With a knowing expression he reached into the inner pocket of his long coat and removed a well-worn book, its pages stuffed full of notes, images and information. He flipped open the book seemingly at random, though in truth he opened the book on the exact page that he desired, unseen hands guiding the pages. On the page before him was text in several languages, with an image of a fox neatly drawn into the top corner of the page. He read for a moment before flipping the book closed once again before replacing it into the confines of his coat.<br/><br/>The ‘tree house’ as the kids had called it stood still and silent in his presence, like a living thing holding its breath, hoping that the monster would go away. Of course the real monster was no longer here, no doubt secluding itself beneath the lake with its latest victim. A pity that he had no arrived back in town sooner. That was the problem with rumour, it often arrived after the fact. But it was not a matter of any great concern either way. He was far more interested in the group who had come before him. No normal people group have perceived the entrance to this house, nor bypassed the illusions that shrouded the area like a fine mist. However they were human, more or less, which meant that they were tethered. Or so he assumed. At least one of them was familiar to him.<br/><br/>The man stepped out of the house and could almost feel the house relax in response. He had considered destroying the house. It would have been easy enough, however it would have been naught but a waste of his energies. All that it required was the death of the monster. Kill the monster that had created this place and the house would soon crumble and rot. Of course that was assuming that the tethered misfits had the stomach to do what was needed. If they didn’t then he would do so himself. It was the only way to stop any more victims appearing. And there would be more. There always was.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><br/>Maxwell stood on a small rise in the land that let him look over the lake, his jacket swaying ever so slightly in the light breeze. Ideally he would have liked to have gone with the others, the potion and its effects offering a tantalising experience that was hard to ignore. However he was also aware of August’s obvious fear of the water and so had elected to stay behind with her, unwilling to leave her on her own. The ground beneath his feet was soft and covered in grass and leaves, so he decided to sit for a while, his arms and legs crossed in a rather uptight fashion. As always he wore a near permanent look of irritation that bore no relation to his actual mood, hidden slightly beneath his upturned hood and the shadow that it cast over his face.<br/><br/>Though he had agreed to stay with August out of concern for her wellbeing he wasn’t entirely sure what to say or do to help her. She had seemed pretty distraught at the time and he had been able to react to that, but now that they were alone he was at a loss for what to say. How did you console someone without touching them? He was silent for a while as he tried to think of something to say. Then again did she even want to talk? Perhaps she simply wanted to be left alone, in which case he was just being a nuisance. <font color=""gold"">“Shit,”</font> he said under his breath, realizing that he was perhaps a little out of his depth. He sighed loudly and dipped his head.<br/></div>"

It wasn't because he was insecure about his body or anything, he kept himself in good shape, but mostly it had to do with his scar. The scar would lead to questions, questions to flashbacks, flashbacks to pain, pain to suffering, suffering to a soft, depraved happiness. Anytime he went back to that moment in time, he could''t keep himself together, his defenses would crumble, and Apophsis would get out. It had happened twice before, and each of those times, someone had paid the ultimate price for his weakness. <br/><br/>Jackson took off everything except his thermal long sleeve and underwear, which were just some regular boxers, and strapped the holster's for all of his knives to his waist. He took the silver blade out of his pocket and cleaned the blood from it on the grass, not going into any particular care to hide his doing so. Once he felt he was ready, he picked up the potion and chugged it, resisting the rug to spit it out, it tasted terrible. Once he felt the gills pop out, which was the weirdest fucking sensation ever and made him want to scratch his neck really bad, he waded into the water, shivering a little at the cold before the magic took effect. It as still cold, bearable so. He gave a wave to Maxwell and August as they stayed on land.<br/><br/>""Later guys, wish us luck.""<br/><br/>With that down, he dove into the water, taking a test breath near the surface o see if t worked. Once he was sure that he wasn't drowning, he than began to swim over to wear everyone else was, the row boat, but stopped when he saw Daniel messing around up top. Swimming back up, he pooped his head out of the surface behind the guy, and gave him a tap on the shoulder. ""Hey man, we've got to go down right now. Marvel at being Aquaman later, we've got a kid to find . . . though I must say that being part fish is the coolest thing ever, man, if only I had my hands on this stuff back home, it'd be awesome."" Jackson smiled at the idea, considering asking Mary to whip him up some potion for his own personal use, since he doubted Kanoa would help him out, and to be honest, he didn't really want her help. He still thought that they were lacking info, or a general plan, but he decided he'd argued enough for now. He'd just to his best with the cards he'd been dealt, even if that had been a grand total of one.<br/><br/>Once Daniel dived down, Jackson would follow, diving all the way down to were Kanoa was staying on some sunken rowboat, staring at the opening to the cave. A dark creepy cave with only one exit and who knows what inside. <span class=""bb-i"">I really hope I don't regret this.</span></div>"

She barely even registered the scanty bodies in front of her, eyes glazed over as she stared at the shoreline quietly. Maxwell volunteered to stay behind with her. She stared at him for a moment before her eyes went back to the water. Kanoa spoke to her, but the red head again didn't take her eyes off the water.<br/><br/>""If I get too close don’t hesitate to tell me to piss off, k? I'm not that easy to offend.""<br/><br/>The redhead still never broke her stare from the lake, but she nodded.<br/><br/>""You've done enough already, I won't force you to come, August.""<br/><br/>Another nod, as the redhead calmed down, aware that no one seemed to want to push their luck and pull her towards the water or explore the matter further. She pulled her knees up to her chest, but remained staring at the water. Eventually, everyone was gone, slipping beneath the surface and it was quiet. Everyone was gone. Except for her and Maxwell. The boy was clearly uncomfortable, didn't need her powers to see that much. August took a deep, slow breath, eyes shut for a moment before she adjusted her glasses and flicked her eyes to him. Everyone seemed to be avoiding the topic, wanting to ask but not wanting to be the first to do so. How much of it was them assuming she was unstable, feeding off the emotions around her, unable to control herself because of her powers? That was fine. She was alright with that. They weren't friends. She didn't know them enough to let them in yet. Something far deeper than base understanding. August could connect with anyone, but no one would ever be able to connect with her. So many inputs. So much data.<br/><br/>Sometimes the overflow was suffocating.<br/><br/>""Thanks. For staying with me, I mean. If the Kitsune or whatever decided to grab me up here while I was alone, it'd be pretty problematic. Or you know...a bear or something. Bobcats don't live up here right? I'm terrible with animals.""<br/><br/>She was quiet for a moment before digging around in her backpack, finally breaking her stare from the gentle ripples in the lake. Not even bubbles. Of course not, they were breathing just fine. Just. Fine. August dug out two granola bars, then butt-shimmied closer to Maxwell, holding one out to him. She had regained control of her emotions, of her powers. But she was still emotionally drained, for lack of a better phrase.<br/><br/>""Here...I don't know about you, but I'm starving. Sitting in another person's mind apparently take it out of you, heh.""<br/><br/>She pulled a water bottle out of the pack as well, sitting cross legged as she nibbled on the bar, trying to avoid looking at the water.<br/><br/>""Course...now I feel a bit like a coward...walked into a magical living house...chasing after a kidnapping spirit beast...and a lake beat me.""<br/><br/>She ran a hand through her long hair, giving a sigh and a stifled chuckle as she shut her eyes, fiddling with her cell phone.</div>"

He brooded over the events of the day and those that preceded it. He was good at brooding. Rarely did he give off the sense of existential angst that craved and considered craven by the youth of the Western world. Instead he usually managed to maintain the cool facade that came so easily to him. He craned his neck as if peering into a place that only the truly perspicacious could see. He always looked like he was leaning casually on a wall, even when he wasn't. He slipped trough the world with a synchronicity that belied his distracted mien.<br/><br/>Orion considered the day. He had seen things which had before only existed in the realm of idle fantasy and creative exploration. A supernal structure erected upon a floral foundation. Exhibitions of extraordinary talents among his fellow freaks and frauds. Most were fiery and fantastical, in appearance or at least in the effect they produced on their would-be wielders. Orion, however, had no such means at his disposal. His 'power' much like his manner of introspection, was much subtler than that, and just about as useful. He did not know what code the sun was trying to signal him in as it flicked and flashed in front of his eyes, or the meaning of babel speak that emanated from sweat of his comrades, it was, like his slightly frowning visage, fascinatingly and frustratingly inscrutable. Orion looked down into his palm at the little blue vial. A magic potion. How about that. It had been an interesting day. He was supposed to drink it. He had probably imbibed stranger things because of peer pressure. Popping the top it poured the liquid into his mouth. He swished it around his mouth. It tasted to him of jellyfish and  mouthwash. Actually, it didn't taste like anything he could define. He swallowed.<br/><br/>He watched the rest of his merry band strip to skivvies and slip into the water. If he didn't think they were crazy before, he sure did now. Their underclothes were going to be soaked when this was done, he didn't envy them marching home in them. Shrugging, Orion tore off his coat and peeled off the sweater and shirt beneath. Orion had never been embarrassed about his body. Why the hell should he. He looked good. He knew that. Usually he managed to avoid the obsessive narcissistic displays, the flexing, stretching, and posturing that often accompanied such self-aware, early bloomers. Kicking off his boots his let them scatter on the grass with the rest of his clothes. Pants and boxers came next, together in one smooth motion. He kicked them off too. He stood for a moment, placing his hands on his newly naked hips and just basked in the sun and wind on his skin. It was brisk, but nice. He wouldn't want to be out in it all day, but it was nice to feel the elements intimately for a moment. Lifting his feet to remove his socks he wiggled his long toes in the grass. A sense of serenity melted the remaining ruminations from his mind. No longer adrift. This was Orion's element, he lifted his knees stretching, twisting his torso and folding one arm over his chest and then the other. Just a little warm-up. Whether they thought it cool or not, it was always a good idea to limber up before any kind of exercise. Besides, he reiterated to himself, he wasn't worried about gawkers. He was long and he was strong, gifted with the physical accouterments that his grandfather liked to joke was a small reparation from Rousseau for slavery. He had a swimmers physique, but Orion never considered himself much of a swimmer. There wasn't all that much opportunity for any kind of competitive practice of the sport in Oakenheim, and Orion preferred team sport. He was still pretty confidant in his performance in water, and confidence, as he had often learned, was key to success in most endeavors.<br/><br/>Bouncing on the balls of his feet he burst into a run, smoothly jogging to the edge of lake before diving high and long into the water with very little splashback. A moment later the water exploded with flailing limbs and curses.<br/><br/>""Motherfucking assfuck!"" Orion howled and yelped. Whatever else Orion might be, he was not, in point of fact, a cold-weather creature.</div>"

If she wanted to talk then he would talk, if not he would simply stay silent and keep her company in silence. Both options were fine with him. His number one concern at present was for her safety. After a short while August broke the silence between them, causing Maxwell to look directly toward her. He made certain that he didn’t move any closer to her so as to not distress her in any way. However she seemed to have calmed down somewhat, sitting to his side on the grass covered rise, which also put him more at ease.<br/><br/>Maxwell had some limited understanding of her desire to avoid physical contact, hence the reason he dressed in such heavy, covering clothes. Only unlike August who did so to protect herself he was more concerned with protecting others. In truth his unconscious ability to wither the life from the plants that he came into contact with had so far caused no harm to anybody, at least as far as he was aware of.  However he couldn’t help but worry if he was inflicting something far less obvious upon them that he could not see. As he had no desire to risk it he had taken a cautious approach to the situation, at least until he knew more. So it took him by surprise when August shimmied closer toward him. He accepted the granola bar hesitantly.<br/><br/><font color=""gold"">“Your welcome, and thank you,”</font> he said, not really knowing what else to say. He looked out over the water as he took a bite out of the bar. He hated the taste of these things but he was hungry enough not to care all that much. He turned back toward her as she talked about her fear of the water and how it had been more paralysing then anything she already experienced today. He smiled at her and shook his head. <font color=""gold"">“No, I don’t think you’re a coward,”</font> he said in a warm tone. <font color=""gold"">“A little crazy maybe, but no more so than the rest of us,”</font> he added on with a mischievous smile. He turned back toward the lake. The surface was calm and still.<br/><br/><font color=""gold"">“I’m not a particularly strong swimmer myself if I’m honest,”</font> he said with complete honesty. Though with that said he had no particular fear of the water either. In fact he had already considered how his ‘telekinetic’ abilities would manifest under the water. He suspected that he was now far stronger swimmer than he had ever been.<br/></div>"

Then I was on a train for an hour...got on, was straight as an arrow.""<br/><br/>She made an undulating motion with her hand, one eyebrow raised as she quirked her lips and flushed slightly at the memory.<br/><br/>""My bare shoulder was up against this girl's sweater, and by the end of the trip, I just wanted her to pull me into the bathroom and have me ride <span class=""bb-i"">her</span>! It was ridiculous...also kind of awesome.""<br/><br/>No more rocks. She leaned back, having finally stopped fiddling with the cellphone and managed to relax her muscles. She decided against mentioning what ended up happening at the train station with the girl. Her cheeks flushed a bit again.<br/><br/>""Weirdest part...I didn't actually mind it after the initial panic. My powers I mean, not the liking girls bit. They were cool...it was awesome knowing exactly how to talk to people to make them smile, or leave you alone, or get them flustered. Sometimes I understood them better than they ever would...hard to not like that kind of power.""<br/><br/>The redhead folded her legs in a yoga pose, putting up her hands like she was zen and dropping her glasses low on the bridge of her nose as she gave a mock elderly voice.<br/><br/>""Oh, you have come to the great Feels Guru!

I know everything you waaaaant!""<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">...and can't give you any of it.</span><br/><br/>A laugh and August laid back on the grass, staring up through the trees. Her mind raced around, trying to settle on a branch to follow, but wanting to choose all of them. The limits of the human mouth were aggravating, she had all these things she wanted to say all the time, but her tongue was just too slow to explain it all, or people couldn't follow her logic. She opted to halt her tangent there, looking over at Maxwell.<br/><br/>""Telekinesis though. That's gotta be handy.

She let out a water jet sigh and swam closer to the underwater cave's entrance. It was subtle, but the water inside the cave was warm. There could have been a scientific explanation, but she believed in scientific explanations as much as a detective believed in coincidences. There were certain magic spells that made use of vast amounts of water, which meant that they would be walking in on the fox spirit while it was distracted. <br/><br/>She swam into the cave, and pretty soon it started to become dim. ""Ah, right. Caves are dark."" Kanoa mumbled to herself, the magic of the potion allowing her to speak. She kept moving forward, directing herself forward along the cave wall. She could barely see, however, there was a faint current pushing against her that she was able to follow. The water only got warmer as she got further in, warmer and warmer until it felt as if she were soaking in a hot tub. <br/><br/>Just when she was starting to worry that she would be boiled alive she rounded a corner and saw a light off in the distance. It was a green, flickering color, it was fox fire. Fox fire was simply what the first layman observers of a fox spirits magic could think of. Laymen weren't very creative you see. When a fox spirit uses magic, it's magical aura is visible, even to those without a tether. This was why stories of the creatures were so prevalent in the past, they weren't as careful as they are in the present. One video uploaded to the internet and they'd be hunted down in the hopes that their fur could make magical coats. It could, by the way, but that's besides the point.<br/><br/>Kanoa swam upwards, and her head broke the surface of the water. She was in what appeared to be a makeshift room inside the cave. Just like the house in the forest, she could see that magic was afoot. Stone had been morphed into shape, creating furniture and edging off the corners of the walls. There was a hole in the roof leading out of the cave, but there was something blocking sunlight from getting in. <br/><br/>""Hellooo."" Kanoa said, walking out of the water. The spirit was right in front of her, with it's back turned to her. The fox was in human form, and took the shape of what seemed to be a teenage girl. Nine orange furred tails were pointed up vertically, the tips of which seemed to burn with magical aura. Kanoa turned her head to the others and shrugged, the fox hadn't heard her, she seemed too busy with something. Kanoa slowly walked up to her, and peered over her. In her hands was the missing student, he wasn't moving. The boy's body was submerged up to his torso in water, the Kitsune's hands were around his head, and surrounded by her aura.<br/><br/>""Ah, so you're trying to heal him huh?"" Kanoa said. The fox heard her this time, and her entire body shivered as if a shock had gone down her spine. She leaped from the boy and quickly backed herself into a corner. <br/><br/>""S-stay away!

Kanoa looked to the fox, and then to the unmoving boy.<br/><br/>""Guys, talk to the Kitsune for a bit will you, I need to see if I can help this guy."" She ignored the fox and leaned down to the boy's level. Feeling his neck, she felt a faint pulse. <br/><br/>""I'm serious! I'll uhh, I'll suck your blood!"" The fox screamed.<br/><br/>""That's vampires."" Kanoa said.<br/><br/>""W-well I'll turn you into a frog!""<br/><br/>""That's a witch."" Kanoa yawned and pulled the boy out of the water. She placed a hand over his chest and began chanting in a soft voice.<br/><br/></div>"

To say that she was nothing at all what he was expecting was an understatement. He couldn't help but feel like an ass for earlier, but what was done was done. And now they had the lovely task of talking to what was obviously a very distraught individual, who could do who knows what to them if they piss her off or make her feel threatened. Well, at least he didn't have to worry about the bloodbath that Apophsis had been promising to him would away the group at the end of this ordeal.<br/><br/>Jackson pulled himself out of the water, wringing out his thermal shirt a little, but soon giving up as it was just a wasted effort at this point, especially since they were going to have to swim back out later anyway. Walking over to kitsune girl, Jackson took a seat a short distance away from her, close enough that he could be clearly heard, but near enough so that he wasn't invading her personal space. For awhile, he didn't say anything, unsure how he should start this conversation, or was it an interrogation, fuck it, let's just start with the basics.<br/><br/>""Sooo, umm, Hi, my name's Jackson, and I come from California, which is on the other side of the country, in case you didn't know . . . ya know."" Jackson chuckled awkwardly to himself, scratching his head a little before giving a sigh. ""Yeah that was just unbelievably bad, so let's start over. My name's Jackson, would you mind telling me yours, or if you're not comfortable with that, what you prefer to be called. Also, could you tell us all what happened to the boy over there, maybe explain to us the series of events that led to the situation we have now. Take your time to collect your thoughts, if you feel the need."" Jackson had come in expecting to find a vicious monster or inhumane beast, but now that he was faced with an upset and clearly very worried girl, he just could help but feel bad for her. He knew that this could possibly be some sort of trick, they were dealing with a spirit known for illusions after all, but he had a gut feeling that this wash;t the case here at all.</div>"

JesusChristwhydidhehavetostripWHYDIDHEHAVETOSTRIP, THAT MOTHERFUCKER. If we get out of this I'm going to strangle him...once he has pants on, that is.</span> Blushing furiously the boy worried about August sensing his embarrassment and making fun of him. But that would require her to be down here. Which she wasn't. Because of him. Or so at least he kept telling himself despite the part in his head that gave him his danger sense saying otherwise. It was then that he felt the tickle of Kanoa's words in his ears as she gave them the word to head in. It seemed he'd have to contemplate his Freudian level aversion to being naked later. Besides Mary could always make fun of him in the mean time. Yeah, that sounded good. <br/><br/>And so he swam forward until he was about a meter or two behind Kanoa, his wondering if they got their pants at the same place interrupted by a drastic change in temperature. <span class=""bb-i"">That's strange. There aren't any volcanic vents anywhere near this lake. Could this be due to the potion? No if it was, Kanoa would have told us, right? Of course...maybe...probably...not. Alright she hasn't been forthcoming with information but that isn't enough reason to stop us mid cave dive and ask her what's going on. Hell she's probably as in the dark about this as we are. Heh. In the dark.</span>As much fun as an unplanned pun was, Daniel noticed an ethereal glow to the distance. Seeing it, Daniel knew it was similar to his own 'energy.' Well, as lithium was to Ununoctium or the Sahara Desert was to Alaska, but still, two different pieces in the same chess set. Analogies. As he climbed out of the water he held his body low to the ground, his feet moving quickly yet without sound, drawing his blade to the cho, ready to strike at any moment. And that's when she turned around.<br/><br/>""Ah, so you're trying to heal him huh?"" Kanoa said. The fox heard her this time, and her entire body shivered as if a shock had gone down her spine. She leaped from the boy and quickly backed herself into a corner. <br/><br/>""S-stay away! I'm a monster you know!?"" She screamed, her voice was hoarse and her eyes were red. Kanoa looked to the fox, and then to the unmoving boy.<br/><br/>""Guys, talk to the Kitsune for a bit will you, I need to see if I can help this guy."" She ignored the fox and leaned down to the boy's level. Feeling his neck, she felt a faint pulse. <br/><br/>""I'm serious! I'll uhh, I'll suck your blood!"" The fox screamed.<br/><br/>""That's vampires."" Kanoa said.<br/><br/>""W-well I'll turn you into a frog!""<br/><br/>""That's a witch."" Kanoa yawned and pulled the boy out of the water. She placed a hand over his chest and began chanting in a soft voice.<br/><br/>It was- SHE was just a girl. A girl with with several fluffy tails but still. <span class=""bb-i"">Who would have thought that a kitsune would look like a cosplayer? What are you saying Danny? You need to stay frosty. Remember what August said. This person no- this THING had drug that boy and kidnapped him. But she also tried to heal him.</span> Daniel didn't like this. They weren't an order of gallant knights of to slay the monster. They were a bunch of scared kids that went off and found more scared kids. He wanted to go and help Kanoa heal the boy. He could perform  emergency first-aid all the way up to a tracheotomy (theoretically) but considering his track record he'd probably do more bad than good. And so he steeled himself and approached the gi- the kitsune, hand off his blade stopping until he was about a tail's length away from her. He had always been good with animals. Maybe it would extend to her. If it didn't- well at least he was close enough to her that his mass would block her initial assault giving the rest time to amount a defense of some sort but as he searched her eyes he dismissed the thought. While there was the very real possibility she was putting him under a glamour, his danger sense hadn't gone off, and it hadn't been wrong yet. <br/><br/>And so he spoke, his voice barely more than a whisper saying. ""You have no idea what you're doing. What was suppose to be a routine feeding fell apart when that boy was able to resist your powers. You panicked and had to use something stronger to keep him from running, telling stories. After all, someone like us might come along. But you used something too strong. Something that was eating him inside out. So you held onto him trying to fix what happened. You've been pushed to the brink trying to heal him, unable to get a proper 'meal' in case his dies while you're out recuperating. Tell me where I'm wrong."" Offering his hand for her to take it Daniel's eyes softened. ""We all know you're a good person who just slipped up. Don't waste the last of your energy fighting when we can all pool together to figure out how to help him. I'll even let you feed a little bit on me."" He added, hoping the sign of good faith would keep her from going full blown Bundy. <br/><br/>Closing his eyes, Daniel thought back to all the new age books that pervaded his aunt's store. Hindu manuskripts that mapped out the chakras along a persons spine and the thousands of 'veins' that the energy flowed. He recalled books about spiritual healing that involved one reaching into these points of swirling spiritual energy and letting it flow from yourself to an area that needs to whatever needs to be healed. And much to his surprise, found that it worked. And so, feeling his energy flow from his chest down into his left arm leaving it feeling warm and tingly Daniel clamped down on his excitement, on his fear, on his anger, on his wants. <br/><br/>The same way his blood would sing to him of how to bend the world to his will so too did it tell him not to mold this energy. Only to trust himself. In his palm it felt like he was holding a swirling cyclone of hot air that as it grew, Daniel suddenly felt electricity between the two. And not as in the rom-com love at first site dopey mumbo-jumbo, but a sudden electro-static discharge accompanied by the smell of ozone. His heart thumping at the not-unpleasant sensations he was being bombarded with he opened his eyes and with a smile much more genuine said, ""My name is Danny. What's yours?""<br/><br/></div>"

Simply put; shivering, pondering what life decisions had led her to this point, sincerely wondering if she had done something to permanently damage her mind's perception of the self and reality, covering her exposed cleavage with an arm, looking down at the the palm of her hand on the other arm, wondering what was real, like, is anything real, man? Whoa.<br/><br/>She was mostly shivering though. She regretted, much more than her decision to dive without any top-- her decision to dive <span class=""bb-i"">with</span> her pants on-- the cloth in the worn old things only seemed to have absorbed the cold water of the river, despite the water closest to the cavern they were now in to be quite pleasant. The jeans were soaked wet and stuck to the skin of her legs with icy vengeance, like the movie Frozen has remained attached to the public consciousness, she too felt Elsa's touch in her pants.<br/><br/>Still, she couldn't help but cringe at the attempts to make first contact with the nervous magical being. Jackson meant well, but based on his hug from earlier Mary recognized that <span class=""bb-i"">maaaaybe</span> he could be a little overbearing-- even if he didn't notice. Danny was a narc; even though he probably meant well too, or whatever, a narc is a narc. Magical spirit animals from Fuji could probably smell a snitch from a mile away-- even if they looked like nervous freshmen. <br/><br/>And that was it!<br/><br/>Kanoa was busy SAVING LIVES-- Maxwell wasn't the most friendly-- but he defintely understood a politicians craft, and August had POWERS that helped her talk to people, they both sat diving into freezing waters using a magic potion to confront a mystical ancient fox daemon for some reason-- and Orion, whom Mary was loathe to admit was probably the smoothest of operators among the group, hadn't yet surfaced-- he was probably getting molested by river mermaids or something. Maybe he was just enjoying the splendor of infinite time under water-- or maybe he literally suffered hypothermic shock from skinny dipping. What a way to go. <br/><br/>Gosh, this was all <span class=""bb-i"">so stupid</span>.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Fuck!</span><br/><br/>Mary remember something in her pockets she may have forgotten to leave up top.<br/><br/>Digging in with her free hand, she fished around, until with a sad recognition, she pulled out what she'd hoped she'd left with her mp3 and other valuables up top. The flower Kanoa about-- the one she wanted to preserve.<br/><br/>In the palm of her hand now rested several deep azure petals of the wrinkled and soaked Sacred Blue Lotus.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Soooooooo stupid.</span><br/><br/>""Sooo, umm, Hi, my name's Jackson,""<br/><br/>It was alright. <br/><br/>Mary resigned to their loss. Not quite slipping into her typical apathy, however, but something more akin to a Jamaican stasis. She was chill with it all-- but she didn't feel nothing, and that felt...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">STUPID.</span><br/><br/>""My name is Danny. What's yours?""<br/><br/>Yes. All of this was becoming pretty stupid pretty fast. Or maybe everything was always this stupid and she'd just been blind to it in her own angsty apathy? <br/><br/>Mary, eyes not leaving the drying 8 petals in her hand, pondered something:<br/><br/><div class=""bb-indent"">Sacred Blue Lotus had clearly been used <span class=""bb-i"">stupidly</span> by this fox on the kid-- whole flowers could kill if mixed wrong, but petals-- especially watered down petals might calm nerves, makes someone more open to suggestion, mellows them out... A proper dose of the stuff could put the kitsune in a more talkative mood-- all questions answered, no magic bullshit, no formalities.</div><br/><br/>That was, of course, assuming plant toxins would even have any effect on the fox...<br/><br/>She shrugged-- better to try and know for sure. <br/><br/>Placing three of the petals on her tongue, she slipped the rest into her pocket and marched forward, past Jackson and Danny, seeking to catch her by surprise.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Mary, charmed.</font>""<br/><br/>For no true reason, other than perhaps some metaphysical science, Mary smooched that fox-girl.<br/><br/>Not a peck on the cheek, either, but something longer and more intimate. As Mary pressed in the nine-tailed mythical high school magical girl, she was positive she was probably on some trip. Relying on the kitsunes own mixture of anxiety, confusion, and utter surprise, she to tongue to slip the rapidly dissolving petals into the kitsunes mouth, before breaking the embrace.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Christ, I hope that worked.</font>""<br/></div>"

She was wearing a orange knitted sweater that was much too large for her and clearly belonged in the men's isle. Her animal like eyes that glowed with a faint orange hue narrowed as Jackson attempted to calm her down. But she only glared at him. ""Demon... You don't fool me, no matter what skin you wreath yourself in."" She growled at him, attempting to back herself further into the corner.<br/><br/>""Bzzt."" Kanoa mimicked a buzzer giving the wrong answer on a game show, though she kept her eyes on her patient. His breathing had evened out, it seemed he wouldn't die at least.<br/><br/>Daniel meanwhile, tried to talk to the fox. He first laid out his theory as to what happened, the fox lowered her eyes in disdain. ""You are somewhat correct..."" She said. Daniel went on, going so far as to offer his own energy. The fox's vision focused to the source of sustenance, and her hand lowered from her mouth. The fox's eyes turned feral, her furred ears stood up, and her mouth opened to reveal sharp fangs. She was primed to sink her teeth into Daniel, but then Mary happened. ""EH?"" With no warning and little stamina, the fox could do little to prevent Mary from assaulting her mouth. Pedals were forced into her mouth, which she swallowed on reflex.  <br/><br/>""You... Fiends..."" She mumbled, before falling forward as if her bones had become jelly. Her head stopped just short of the ground, as Kanoa had caught it with her foot. <br/><br/>""Nope, I've got a few questions for you."" She said, nearly kicking the fox backwards so her back was against the wall. ""What's your name?"" She asked. The fox spirit's ears had flopped downwards, and her eyes were glazed over. <br/><br/>""Yui..."" She answered in a drowsy voice. <br/><br/>""Okay, Yui, why did you kidnap that boy?""<br/><br/>""Hungry, weak... There are no more animals in the forest to feed off... Plants... not enough either.""<br/><br/>""So you did try to feed off of him, but with your magic so weak you could not hypnotize him on your own... That's why your attempt to hypnotize me at the forest edge failed as well. So you turned to potions and drugs, even though you have little experience with them?""<br/><br/>""I'm sorry... I didn't know... What to do... sorry... sorry..."" Yui's eyes closed, and she quickly fell asleep. Kanoa let out an annoyed sigh.<br/><br/>""I guess she's more exhausted than she looks. Let's get out of here everyone. Someone grab our found victim, he should be fine through the water, his diving potion hasn't worn off yet. I've got... this one."" Kanoa picked up Yui, who was surprisingly light. ""Let's mosey.""</div>"

In truth, it was only one word that had struck him so forcefully, stopping all other trains of thought and leaving him blind and deaf to the happenings around him. It rang in his head like the bells of a church, only seeming to get louder the more he focused on it, and nearly impossible to escape.<br/><div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i""><span

his self-induced stupor. He was over this, and besides, maybe the Kitsune was just sensing what was inside of him. Yeah, that was it, there was no other explanation . . . right? Deep in his mind, he could hear Apophsis' hollow laughter echo throughout his mind, mocking him, mocking him for daring to hope that he'd ever be in control of his life other than how it ended. Still in somewhat of a daze, he stood up and walked over to the unconscious kid that the spirit had been trying to heal, slowly easing the guy on to his shoulder before turning to follow Kanoa out. All the while, he couldn't stop from violently shivering,, the cold of the cave sinking in more quickly through the dampness of his long-sleeved thermal, the fabric seeming to stick to the 3 jagged reminders, forever carved into his skin, always there to let him know exactly when his life began it's downward spiral into insanity. <br/><br/><font color=""#9e0b0f""><span class=""bb-i"">The fox isn't wrong, Jackson, you and I are one in the same now. You know it, and I know it, and everyone around you does to. They fear us, from the slightest shiver to the coldest chill, it lies present inside them . . . and you want them to, because it means they notice you. Just try and tell me it that isn't the truth.</span></font><br/><br/>Jackson gave no response, because he couldn't deny it, he'd been feeling strange for a couple days now, and he only just found out why. He was losing himself to the terror inside him, and a part of him really . . . really liked what came with it. He felt empowered, confident, powerful, like a predator on the prowl. When the Kitsune had backed away from him, a strange look had come into his eyes, a predatory glare and a hidden half-smile that only she could see. It had been for a split-second, but it had been there, and with it a feeling of control and acknowledgement, of dominance and presence.He hadn't been shocked or disheartened by her response, but excited and eager to pursue it, to attack her, make her fear him, make her bend to his will. In the split second of time, there was no Jackson, nor was there Apophsis either, only the dangerous being that was left in their wake when the two souls became one.<br/><br/><sub><font color=""#6ecff6"">"". . . .Shit.""</font></sub> He muttered under his breath as he walked, feeling a familiar wave of self-loathing and disgust wash over him. He couldn't let Apophsis get into his head with his mind games, or else he was as good as dead. . . or worse. Jackson tried his best to forget the dark spirit's whispered words and dark promises, instead focusing on anything else. The walls of the cave, sound of the water lapping in the cave, Mary's shirtless fo- Jackson immediately decided to rephrase his idea of 'anything', re-focusing his attention on getting the unconscious guy out of here. <font color=""#6ecff6""><span class=""bb-i"">Fuck, swimming him out of here is going to be a pain, why did I even volunteer for this in the first place . . . oh right, my body went on auto-pilot while I was dealing with possible demonification of my mortal soul.</span></font><br/><br/>Great, now he was back on that subject again, fucking brillant. What else could possible go wrong for him today, the answer: just about everything and more. He sighed as he dived in to the water struggling to effectively swim while the other guy took up his other arm. After a short while, however, he had an idea that, while he didn't like it, would help him get up to the surface faster. And right now, he wanted to be as far away from that cave, and the fox girl as well for that matter, as he possibly could. Taking a breath to focus his energy, he felt his arm take on a chill before a etheral silver arm rose out of it, this one looking vaguely normal except for the fact that it was half-way rotted an seemed to be crawling with maggots and other disgusting things he dared not name. A trend he noticed with Apophsis' soul, it never took on the same appearance twice in a row, which did lead him to question what Apophsis actually looked like, but he always shook away the thought because he soon realized he didn't want to know if his other parts were of any indication.<br/><br/>His right eye blazing a soft silver glow through the lake's murk, Jackson had the arm grab the kid by the collar of his shirt, then released him, feeling the weight of the boy lessen, but the strain on his mind increased by a moderate amount. He pushed through it, however, and was able to rise up to the surface quicker than before, soon coming on to the shallow edge of the beast, the arm dragging the boy behind him aways before Jackson sent a command to have him eased down to the ground. The arm then dispersed into silver missed and flowed back into Jackson's body, the strain of using it is causing him to hold his head as it pulsed with a slight pain. <br/><br/>Turning towards August and Maxwell, he gave a wave as he walked over to collect his stuff, putting on his shirt and jacket without bothering to take off his completely drenched shirt, his hands were shivering violently as he put on his pants, foiling his attempts to zip the zipper before he let out a curse and gave up, sitting down in the sand with a huff. He waited a second before he addressed the other two, wondering if he had interrupted something.<br/><br/>""So, Mary roofie-kissed the Kitsune and KAnoa is bringing it up shortly. Obviously we found the kid, the Kitsune drugged him or something, wasn't very good at it and gave him and overdose, which is why she came here as she was attempting to heal him. But she was attempting to feed on him though. I think that's everything important that happened down there."" He reclined onto the sand, trying his best to warm himself up by rubbing his arms, and failing terribly due to his refusal to remove the offending article that was currently causing him to feel so cold. ""So, have any questions?""<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/constantine"">@Constantine</a><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/spawnling"">@Spawnling</a></div>"

He laughed and shook his head. <font color=""gold"">“Maxwell Smash? Ha! Unfortunately I'm not half as powerful as you seem to think. Hell, even when I put my mind to it I can barely move objects that I could move normally, never mind smash shit up. No, my powers not really good for that kind of thing, it’s pretty much limited to swiping cupcakes and lifting skirts,”</font> he said in a roguish, joking tone. He sighed and went back to looking out over the water. His expression was much darker than he was willing to let August see.<br/><br/>Unlike August, Maxwell’s power could be used to inflict direct physical harm at his whim. And this bothered him a great deal. In terms of his power what he had told her was the truth, but not the entire truth. It was true that his power, the ability to manipulate objects was very much akin to telekinesis and that at best it exerted the same strength as he himself could in person. He made it sound almost harmless. Unfortunately that was not the case. Though he could not lift cars and toss them like stones with just a thought he could inflict a great deal of harm if he wished. Just imagine, getting into a fight with someone, letting them square up to you, hands in your pockets, offering them the first blow. They would be lucky to even reach you. <br/><br/>Because how could they respond when an invisible hand restrains their own, raining down blow after blow completely unseen. How did you evade something that you could not see to begin with? But why even go that far? Maxwell could simply throttle someone across the room, choking the life out of them without even moving a muscle. He bowed his hand and stared at the grass. <font color=""gold"">“Hey, August, do you hate your power? Are you scared of it? Because I am. How could I not be? I don’t even know where it comes from, or what it is. Is this its limit? Or is it going to get stronger. Am I going to lose control? And what happens if I do?”</font> he said out loud despite not intending to, his voice trembling ever so slightly as he tried to restrain himself. <br/><br/>He forced himself up to his feet and jammed his hands deeply into his pockets. For a moment he looked as if he was struggling with something, as if in two minds. August wouldn't need to touch him to realize what was going through his mind at that very moment. He was thinking of running. Just walking away. The moment passed and the tension left his body and he sighed in annoyance at himself. <font color=""gold"">“Ha! Look at me, here I am offering to keep you company when really it’s me who needs looking after. Sorry, I guess I'm not that reliable after all,”</font> he said in a soft, almost happy voice. He turned to face her and was going to say something else when he heard the sound of something breaking the water’s surface. It was Jackson and someone who he did not recognise.<br/><br/><div class=""bb-center"">---</div><br/><br/>Maxwell listened intently as he saw to the boy, dragging him up and away from the water’s edge before taking off his jacket and covering him. A temporary respite from the cold but it would be better than nothing. He found that he accepted everything that Jackson said as true. He wasn’t sure why though. It was a feeling akin to instinct. Or familiarity? He knelt over the boy and was silent in thought for a moment, once again feeling as though something was looming over his shoulder, trying to reach out beyond its reach. Maxwell stood up and moved away from the boy. He wasn't exactly certain but it felt as though he wanted to hurt something, someone. <font color=""gold"">“No questions,”</font> he said simply as he stared out over the water with a look of pure irritation.<br/></div>"

He was holding back, something was running around his head. But she couldn't place it. Melancholy? He'd hardly be the first person to experience that, especially in the teen years. It wasn't the self loathing she saw in Jackson, it wasn't the alien disconnect in Orion. This was something else. She couldn't place it though. Her eyes flicked to his clothing, tempted to reach out and touch it, if only to satisfy her curiosity, when he suddenly stood up.<br/><br/><font color=""#f7941d"">“Hey, August, do you hate your power? Are you scared of it? Because I am. How could I not be? I don’t even know where it comes from, or what it is. Is this its limit? Or is it going to get stronger. Am I going to lose control?

She watched Maxwell move to the boy's side. Standing up, August hesitated, still staring at the water, before taking a few steps towards Jackson after he finished his story. She stayed out of arms reach though, green eyes still jumping to the lake's surface as she spoke to the boy, mind already racing with the facts he had given. The missing teen was there, Maxwell was taking care of him. The kitsune was drugged by Mary, who...didn't pass out from a drug that knocked out a spiritual being. The girl must have some crazy tolerance, which made sense really.<br/><br/><font color=""#00a651"">""Strip. You'll freeze faster if you keep the clothes on, we need to get you warm.""</font><br/><br/>August herself would've given him something dry, but she had worn quite literally nothing but a bra under her long sleeve, and she wasn't about to show everything off for a group she had just met that day. The others may have been comfortable in their bodies, but the redhead preferred a bit of mystery. She paced a bit, still avoiding coming down the shore of the lake while her eyes darted about for the others to breach. She wanted to see this Kitsune. She wanted to see a tangible spirit being, see what it looked like, how it talked, acted. A part of her wanted to see what she could glean from it's emotions as well. Probably a stupidly dangerous concept, but the pull was there.</div>"

Orion heard it the first moment he submerged after his little fit. Each little eddy brought another whispered syllable. He blinked in the murky depths of the water, the others swam on ahead. None of them took the time to listen. Orion took a deep breath. He thought it would be hard to mentally adjust to breathing in water, but it came surprisingly easily to him. What was more concerning was the way the water caressed the inside of his lungs, transcribing characters on his simple squamous epithelii. He knew it was trying to tell him something. The world was always trying to tell him something. The water around him seemed to heat with his temper.<br/><br/>""English, motherfucker, do you speak it?"" He said to the water. The water replied with incomprehensible undulations. Orion tried to blow bubbles in the water, a lack of air made the process difficult. He sighed aqueously and followed after the rest of them a little faster, long limbs scything through the water. By the time he surfaced at the little cave the others were already landside. Orion remained in the water, treading easily with the water up to his shoulders. He blinked the water out of his eyes in time to see Mary sexually assault an furry.<br/><br/>""Called it,"" Orion said for his own benefit and looked around the cave. Everything seemed pretty well in hand. Kinda anticlimactic really. Dipping lower into the water Orion lay on his back, expanded his lungs with proper, lung filling air, and floated listlessly on the surface of the grotto pool. Drifting near the far wall he kicked off gently with his feet. A little harder with his left, spinning across the pool. Foxfire shadows cast across the roof of the cave. Orion thought about Plato. Mostly he was thinking about the whispers in the water though. His ears were beneath the surface now. The whispers were whispers no longer. Now they raged in his skull. Not the close, bodily sound of water anymore. It was thunder, arguing across the sky. He could hear it's pealing retorts and booming jabs. He would have thought it would be difficult to adjust to the dissonance was hearing thunder though the water. It wasn't. He considered Mary and the fox girl. It had been a really weird day. Orion remembered that he was naked. He should think about something else before things got even more weird.<br/><br/>Something splashed into the water next to Orion.  Orion ducked his head to see what it was. It was Jackson. He was using his glowing eyeball to make a ectoplasmic arm to carry their unconscious rescuee through the water. Sure.<br/><br/>Orion swam along lazily after the rest as they swam back the other way. The thunder in the water had started to fade away, just a few low, rumbling grumbles of some final slights. Orion was sure there was something important to be gleaned from what the thunder said. A revelation yet unknown to him. But the important thing was that was unknown to him. He growled at the water again. Swimming hard upwards Orion breached the surface like a majestic sea beast, surging up the muddy bank of the lake without breaking momentum. His shivered slightly as the cool air struck his wet skin. He opened his eyes and cleared the rest of the water from his throat. The first thing he saw was Maxwell staring almost right at him, a looking rather miffed. Orion stared back blankly for a moment. Orion shrugged broad shoulders. Marching up to his pack and scattered clothing Orion shook some of the water off of himself. Stretching his head to one side he ran his hands long his scalp gripping his soggy mass of nappy hair. Squeezing tightly he wrung a copious amount of water from his kinky coils. Sighing satisfied he straightened, with an inaudible, onomatopoeic 'boing' his hair popped back into a large, rough afro. Reaching into his pack, Orion toweled off with one of the extra shirts he had brought, being as thorough as possible to get the water from all of his nooks and crannies. Finally satisfied he started to dress.<br/><br/>""Strip. You'll freeze faster if you keep the clothes on, we need to get you warm."" Reaching into his pack he grabbed another shirt, one of the black shirts from his first band it had the words 'Thus, I Give Up' on it in bold but boring white font and a stylized picture of some tangled rope and driftwood. He also found some jeans. Whistling sharply he tilted his chin up at Jackson. <br/><br/>""Here, killer."" Tossing the clothes at the moist teen. They would be a little big on him but at least he wouldn't freeze off his bits. Sitting on the ground Orion sniffed at the unusual sensation of grass brushing his nether regions. Pulling on his socks and finally his briefs and pants he paused to rummage through his large pack again. Pulling out his new acoustic guitar he straitened and fiddled with the tuning. Leaning against a tree opposite the others he waited for the rest of the pack, observing the scene. Seemed it was mostly all he was good for, adjusting the guitar to the curve of his hip he strummed fast but soft. He looked out over the water with the rest. Singing as swift and soft as his strumming, mostly for his own benefit.<br/><br/><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxyhCm_vTMc&amp;list=PL8ED2997D6F22E3D5&amp;index=1"" rel=""nofollow"">""Don't fall in love with me yet<br/>We only recently met<br/>True, I'm in love with you, but<br/>You might decide I'm a nut<br/>Give me a week or two to<br/>Go absolutely cuckoo<br/>Then when you see your error<br/>Then you can flee in terror<br/>Like everybody else does<br/>I only tell you this 'cause<br/>I'm easy to get rid of<br/>But not if you fall in love<br/>Know now that I'm on the make<br/>And if you make a mistake<br/>My heart will certainly break<br/>I'll have to jump in a lake<br/>And all my friends will blame you<br/>There's no telling what they'll do<br/>It's only fair to tell you<br/>I'm absolutely cuckoo""</a><br/></div>"

It didn't help that she asked him to strip, causing his hand to unconsciously move towards his right shoulder, though he quickly put it back down when he noticed what he was doing. He then heard Orion, call to him, looking over just in time to catch the tossed clothing . . . with his face. After getting up, he picked up the clothes and gave a quick nod of thanks to him before he walked into the forest, waiting until he was sure he was hidden from sight and completely alone before he quickly stripped out of his now-moist jacket, soaked shirt, and damp pants and put on what he had been given. It was a little big for him, but he'd manage, tying the belt tight to prevent any embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.<br/><br/>Once he got a good look at the shirt, however, a dry laugh escaped his lips, the irony of the universe not being lost on him. Taking the wet clothes in his hand, he walked back over to the group, tossing the offending articles onto the sand as he cursed himself for not bringing a bag with him. <br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef"">""You're not half bad with that thing,"" </font>Jackson commented as the taller boy began to sing, <font color=""#00aeef"">""Not my kind of music, but I listen to soundscapes in my free time more than anything else so I can't really say I have a taste in music.""</font> He took a second to look across the lake, hands in his pockets, feeling as if he could use a bit of a pick me up or something. He'd just had the biggest emotional crash ever right after his biggest high in months, so he was feeling a little depressed at the moment.<br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef"">""Hey Orion, you wouldn't to have a sketchbook and a pencil in your bag would you, I feel like drawing something right now."" </font>That was a lie, he felt like whittling, but he wasn't to comfortable with holding a knife right now around other people, didn't want to tempt the fates.</div>"

Judging by the way no one freaked the fuck out over the festering protrusion of Jackson's, Danny would have to believe that he had shared it at the pow-wow that Danny had missed or they more focused on getting the boy back home safely. Danny knew that he should be focused on helping the boy they found but as they reached the surface, he couldn't help but think about the kitsune, Yui. <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Yui. Jesus Christ she has a name. If everything goes tits up and it comes down to the wire can we really deal with her? Can I? It's not exactly like they have courts or jails for supernatural creatures do they? Would they understand? She looked to be in the same condition as the boy. And why are you sympathizing with her anyway? It's not exactly like you know her do you? No. You don't have to know the people involved to tell when murder is murder, and the last thing I'm going to do is decapitate someone...to keep them from hurting another person? What if Yu- this creature does this again? What if they learn how little they can help the people they hurt and use it as a justification to eat everything? This whole thing stinks. Until Kanoa gives us more information I'm dead in the water. Heh. Dead in the water. </span> The small smile that escaped his lips caused him a minor bout of soreness causing him to realize he had been scowling so deeply that his face had practically locked up. <br/><br/>And so when he finally found his way onto the bank of the lake, he was rubbing his face. ""You may want to hold off on drawing, Jackson. We need to get these two someplace proper. I'd like to call an ambulance for our missing person, but if what Kanoa said is true, we need to hang onto him until he's strong enough to survive on his own. As for....the other one. There's this old abandoned cannery by the coastline. It's slightly burned down but it will offer a dry enough place and no one will go snooping while we figure out what to do next.""<br/><br/>Scooting back onto shore after emerging from the near frozen depths of the lake, Mary found in her body a peculiar blend of shooting pain, and tingling numbness. She couldn't differentiate the causes of each sensation between the residue of the high-grade sedatives coursing through her body, and the blistering beginnings of hypothermia that assaulted her skin, now paled to a ghostly white. <br/><br/>Recovering her clothing from behind August, Mary gave a shrug-- a shivering shrug-- as if to quel her own fears and respond in a subtle manner to her cohorts. Mary was beyond a point of question how Orion was still standing after his nude dip-- or what song he was playing. If she hadn't just made out with a magical fox girl, maybe she would have asked him to play some... Guy Clark?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No, not Old No.1...</span><br/><br/>But again, she <span class=""bb-b"">had</span> just made out with a magical fox demon thing. Her name was Yui. And Mary had basically just sexually assaulted and roofied her in one motion, and then swam through freezing water, using her gills, while her magical acquaintances used magic to carry the bodies of the guy they'd just saved and Yui through the water. <br/><br/>She was shivering, her jeans felt like lead ice, the leather jacket provided no warmth, and her bra was muddy-<br/><br/>-but GODS DAMN if she didn't feel... <span class=""bb-i"">alive!</span> <br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">No! Don't smile idiot! They can't KNOW you're happy or... what else was it she felt as warm blood hit her think pan.</span><br/><br/>Anger?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Repress the sanguine <span class=""bb-b"">and</span> the choleric...</span><br/><br/>Right! Of course! Maintaining appearances, Mary fell into a more natural looking slightly-disappointed-but-sort-of-neutral face, and walked, or more accurately, waddled, over to Jackson and Dan(NARC)ny. Orion seemed to be just finishing up, and there was an exchange held between the three.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm inclined to agree with our little police spy, here-- at least in the no ambulance regard.</font>"" Resting a dripping elbow on Danny's shoulder, she continued, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">How well do you think a paramedic is going to buy the whole <span class=""bb-i"">'Oh, you know, it was all a magical fox'</span> excuse?</font>"" She tilted her head, not waiting for an answer, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Seriously, we might be the only ones even able to see the tails, at <span class=""bb-i"">least</span> three of us are on this guy's Dad's watch-list and like... what club even meets on a Saturday? I wouldn't even be <span class=""bb-i"">up</span> this early if I didn't think there was some chance I'd get kiss a magical entity today--.</font>""<br/><br/>Danny shrugged off her elbow. ""Alright what the hell is your problem? You've been giving me dirty looks since I got here. What did I ever do to you!?""<br/><br/>Mary rolled her eyes, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Problem?</font>"" She parroted, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Problem with the fact that we're basically doing your Dad's job while he hunts down druggies and tinkerers?</font>"" She glanced to August, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Nah, no problem.</font>""<br/><br/>""You said so yourself that we'd be the only ones who could spot the supernatural. So how were you expecting to find that guy over there if he was in what everyone else would think was just a tree? And so what if he's concerned with whether people may possibly fry themselves or end up selling to kids, what does that have to do with me?""<br/><br/>Mary stretched her arms, as if to say 'look around!' ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm not expecting them to breath underwater! Apparently all we needed was a basic family recipe from Kanoa for that. I'm just saying-- I don't even see any police tape! How long did the investigation last even? A day? A week?</font>"" <br/><br/>Pointing in the direction they arrived at the lake from, she carried on, with steadily increasing volume, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">There was TONS of stolen shit back there! You're telling me NO store cameras caught an unidentified dude shoplifting? That store owners didn't <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span> report <span class=""bb-i"">any</span> stolen inventory? Dude, just...</font>"" She tossed her arms up, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm basically fucking high <span class=""bb-i"">RIGHT NOW</span> and that seems like a huge fuck up! On like, everyone's part...</font>""<br/><br/>Danny's voice easily matched hers in volume, and as he spoke, loose branches cracked and fell, the dirty and mud along the bank deteriorated as his rage grew. ""You're really going to wonder why people can't identify a shapeshifter? When it comes to petty thefts people don't think 'oh hey this missing bracelet must obviously be the work of a demon from The Far East! And while we're at it, there have been searches. Whole lines of people linked hand in hand scouring the forest since Ramon -that's his name- Ramon Diaz went missing. Though I'm sure you missed it what with being in that graveyard all the time. Besides! Even someone like me can whammy a camera to make static appear to get by cameras. And by the way, don't try to lecture people on major lapses in logic when you were busy ramming your tongue down some person's throat not five minutes ago.""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Pffft,</font>"" Mary scoffed, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Better police work than apparently all of Oakenheim could pull off!</font>"" Mary pointed to the sleeping form of Yui, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Seriously, LOOK at her; shapeshifter or not, there's <span class=""bb-i"">no</span> way she managed to steal as much as she did and get knocked cold that easy!</font>""<br/><br/>""And what's that suppose to mean? That mackin' on them right then and there while we were getting answers was the way to go? For fucks sake that stuff could of easily have put you down for the count and then we'd have another person to worry about if the shit hit the fan!""<br/><br/>Mary struck an exaggerated shy pose and did her best imitation of Danny's voice, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">M-my name's Danny, Fox-chan... w-what's yours???</font>"" She gave a dry laugh, ""She abducted our dear, sweet, precious Ramon here, and you guys we're practically riding her tails from the get go![/color]""<br/><br/>""Well gosh, Mary, you're right!"" Danny said his voice dripping with sarcasm. ""In fact, we should just slay 'the beast' right here!"" Drawing his Kuhkri he threw it at her feet, the blade sinking until it was halfway in the dirt. ""Go ahead, Joan of Arc! Go ahead and liberate us from this horror! After all, it's no big deal to take a life, right?""<br/><br/>Mary's smile was piquant, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">If I'm Joan of Arc... then why were you the one that came here with an actual sword, dude?</font>"" Delicately plucking the word from the dirt, she tossed the thing back to the ground before Danny, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I don't wanna kill her if we don't have to, Narc-o, but if she gets the strength-- she can hypnotize us, or whatever-- and then we all end up like poor, sweet, innocent Ramon!"" <br/><br/>Mary shifted in her puddle of cold river water, ""You were <span class=""bb-i"">literally</span> offering to let her feed off of you-- she's got enough drugs to put half of town out for a day-- and you wanted to make her <span class=""bb-i"">stronger!?</span></font>"" Stills shivering, Mary gave something of a cheeky smile, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm just saying, homes, maybe don't think as much with your dick next time, y'know?</font>""<br/><br/>Danny blushed but remained stalwart. ""If she- it doesn't eat they'll end up dying and there's plenty of questions I've got. Or did you forget about the fact that she said all the animals disappeared from the forest? I don't know about you but that's pretty god damn suspicious if you ask me and a little quid pro quo goes a long way.""<br/><br/>Mary's ire died as she listened to what he had to say-- he was right, they needed her awake-- she wouldn't <span class=""bb-i"">admit</span> he was right out loud, she still resented him-- or rather, her perception of what he represented-- but she could at least agree with him in that they needed to somehow speak to the sexy Japanese fox girl, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">So like, shouldn't we give her a plant instead? To give her just enough energy? I don't know, maybe tie her up somewhere first?</font>""<br/><br/>Danny shook his head, taking the time to calm himself down. It had seemed she had tricked him into talking about what seemed to now be their captive to change the subject. Well that's what he got for not staying cool-headed. Taking a breath Danny returned to his normal volume and with it, the cacophony of destruction around them.""We've seen that it hardly contains enough energy, even those bio-luminescent plants aren't that effective. It may delay her dying of starvation but it definitely won't earn anything more than spite. We all know she's a predator, and predator's can't subsist only on plants. As for tying her up? I'd rather not use rope as she could probably burn right through it and unless you know the location of any sort of weird sex dungeon, I'll lift some cuffs they use for patients at the county hospital. Police cuffs are way too easy to slip out of.""<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Fiiine,</font>"" Mary heaved an exasperated sigh into the air of the swaying trees above the group, she hadn't noticed their gentle dance with the escalation of her conversation with Danny, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">But like, I still think we should keep her on some blue lotus, if only to make sure she doesn't murder us all...</font>"" <br/><br/>Mary placed a hand to her forehead as the reality of what she had just said collided with her diminishing frustration, blue lotus high, hypothermia, and child-like wonder. She felt like orange juice and toothpaste. ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Jesus, I need a smoke,</font>"" she muttered. <br/><br/>She shook her head, as f the thoughts were the still brisk and icy drops of water clinging to her short, dark hair. <br/><br/>She really needed to get better at that whole '<span class=""bb-i"">repression</span>' thing.<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Or maybe just trying to <span class=""bb-b"">get</span> what your feelings even are?</span><br/><br/>Mary's attention returned to the world, significantly chilled mentally. And shaking physically. ""<font color=""#be81f7"">But yeah. Blue flowers for the fox. Sedate that bitch. And stuff. So, like... I guess... I don't know... I... can handle that...?</font>"" <br/><br/>Danny shook his head. ""No way. According to August too much of that stuff will leave brain damage in the long term and the last thing we need is to deal with a vegetative -no pun intended- person. I still think we should grab some though in case she start's chucking fireballs. Maybe make some for syringes? While you may have no qualms about getting up close and personal with Yui- er the kitsune we'll need something a bit more fast acting. To use for emergencies only.""  Picking up his Kuhkri Danny did a small flourish to rid it of the dirt before returning it to his scabbard, and that to his backpack, and while there pulled out a picnic blanket and a towel, tossing the latter to wannabe gangster.<br/><br/> ""I imagine it will be hard gathering plants when you're freezing your ass off. If we're going to do this, we're going to need to move fast."" Daniel added, a flame in his eye that had been lacking until now. ""The best way to do this if we divided into two teams, one for handling Yui and the other for making sure Ramon gets stabilized. Me, Maxwell and August will head down to the abandoned cannery and get a 'cell' rigged up while Kanoa and the rest take care of Ramon while you head back and gather plants. Try not to touch anything you don't know of until Kanoa can backtrack and help with anything too bad. Jackson could probably aid you in case of security and getting back if his outdoorsmanship is as good as he claims."" After a moment of dressing himself in his previous clothing Danny asked the rest of the group, ""Anyone have objections?""</div>"

Her voice was calm as her green eyes flitted between the two arguing teens.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Sorry if this is a bit intrusive Mary, but you ARE shaking quite a bit. I know it can be bothersome when people just touch you without warning, but I'd rather you not die of hypothermia right now. Can I interrupt here for a second? I don't know what happened down there, but you both did really good. You got him back, and no one was hurt in the process it sounds like.""</font><br/><br/>She turned her eyes to Danny, voice still relaxed as she rubbed Mary's shoulders to try and warm her up. She was careful to avoid letting her bare skin touch any of Mary's clothing however, letting the towel do most of the work. Fortunately, she was now in control enough that the residuals on the towel weren't too bad.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Danny, Mary has a point. This...spirit...was feeding off the boy. I can verify that from when I was in his mind. She kidnapped him, and while it may be for survival, it was still against his will. Plus, you guys did just storm her hideout and drugged her. She's going to panic, and we don't fully know what we're dealing with. How do you contain a shape-shifter? I agree mostly with your plan, but instead of me, have Kanoa help you set up the...let's not call it a cell, but a holding place? She may know some stuff that can help keep her contained. Or maybe she has a faster solution that doesn't involve jury rigging anything?""</font><br/><br/>The redhead pulled back from Mary, ignoring that the water had soaked slightly onto her shirt. The girl was choosing her words carefully. Nothing inflammatory. Her tone was calm, but not condescendingly so. She put the emphasis where it needed to go, kept the rhythm in such a way to not put anyone off, but also not give an opening to let her get interrupted. Green eyes locked on Mary.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""But Danny is also right. If what you guys are all saying is true, she didn't want to kill the boy, and may have been pushed to desperation by the disappearing animals. Maybe something worse is out there, and she knows what it is? You probably know better than most how people can make snap judgements without hearing the full story, based off what they see and not what's actually happening. We should get more answers, and then go from there. I mean, you just kissed a shape shifting spirit creature. That you found after breathing water. We should be cautious, but not hasty. What's it say about us if our immediate reaction is hostility?""</font><br/><br/>August adjusted her glasses, then looked at Ramon's form. She remembered the fear she had felt when she laid on the bed. She wanted his opinion on the matter as well. She wanted to talk to the kitsune. She wanted so many different things.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""When he wakes up, he'll have questions too. Not to step on anyone's toes, but everyone here is really jumpy and on edge, for good reason. I think I should be the one who talks to him when he wakes up. I...basically felt what he went through. I understand it. It may help keep him from freaking out and making things worse. First though, we should dry him off and get him warm. Same for everyone else, you guys are all soaked.""</font><br/><br/>She flipped her braid back, then gave a smile, inwardly hoping no one would take this as sarcasm or just huff and slap her for trying to calm everyone down. They had all been under the water, breathing. They had all just been through something unbelievable and wonderous. They were on edge. August had the benefit of being so used to controlling and deciphering her emotions she could, at least, project an air of calm to try and keep the situation from escalating. Even if inwardly she was screaming in frustration and amazement and absolute awe.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""We can argue later, if you still want, about how different we all are and how terrible the other person is just because we see the world differently and went through it differently, but hey...Who else can say they did what we just did? Well...what you guys all just did.""</font></div>"

While dry clothes helped, he could still feel the frigid air piercing the light clothes, slightly dampened by contact with his wet body. And he had no great care for the fate of Yui the kitsune, her conflicting actions and motivations set aside, she obviously wanted nothing to do with him and the feeling was more than mutual. He did agree that Danny offering his life force to the creature was beyond stupid, it was the equivalent of offering your arm as a snack for a starving bear, a decision that could've only ended in disaster.<br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef"">""Firstly, I object to the accusation of falling heads over heels with the fox chick, I was just being nice because I had no fucking clue how to approach and that's my default. Secondly, if she gets rowdy, I think I can help with containing her the best out of all present, excluding the ever-knowledgable Kanoa of course. maybe she can use that talisman she used to help calm me down earlier on her.""</font> Jackson rubbed the back of his neck, breathing out a sigh as he looked up into the sky. It had been a very interesting few hours into the first day of their mystery gang of misfits, but he got the feeling that things wouldn't be getting any easier as time went on. <font color=""#00aeef"">""I'm cool with letting August handle talking to the Ramon kid, and even the spirit fox if she feels up to it, and if Mary wants to find more drugs to roofie the damn thing, then I'm fine with making sure she doesn't get lost and what not.</font>""<br/><br/>Upon hearing August's final comment, Jackson couldn't help but scoff. <font color=""#00aeef"">""Maybe there's a reason for that. Far as I can tell, what ever connects a person to all this bullshit is something that's brought little in the way of happiness and a whole bunch of shit that they never wanted. I mean, it's the main reason Ramon here nearly got killed by an incompetent fox spirit.""</font> She had felt that kid's emotions when the kitsune had been using him like a battery, yet she still found some sort of amazement with this world and magic. Maybe it was a biased opinion, but jackson was firmly of the belief that everything about the world of spirits, magic, and the supernatural was dangerous, wrong, and should be stayed away from; cause with every fantastically awe-inspring thing you see, there's probably a hundred horrors waiting in the shadows to sink their fangs into your flesh and soul. Jackson's hands curled up into fists as he brought his knees up to his chest. <font color=""#00aeef"">""I would do anything and everything, just so I could be rid of this damn tether and remain blissfully ignorant for the rest of my life.""</font><br/><br/>He stayed silent for a while, hair covering his eyes, before he fell back into the sand with a huff. <font color=""#00aeef"">""Man, I'm such a fucking downer. Sorry about the doom n' gloom talk, it's just that you touched a bit of a nerve. Needless to say, I'm not a big fan of all this supernatural bullshit and would much rather have lived without it.""</font></div>"

Turning lazily he casually kicked a side pocket on his pack, indicating where the other boy could find some pencils and paper.<br/><br/>The would-be troubadour skirted the edge of the conversation as well as the treeline. His playing had not ceased. Song done he let the tune change in tempo exploring the outer Es on his pilfered instrument. He gazed through the trees as he circled, a Morse code flickering in his eyes through the sunlight spears that pierced between tree branches. Voices were arguing back by the shore. His playing became a little sharper, tight plucks, short on the neck, down scale, playing off the anger and intonation of his supernal compatriots, punctuating their self-righteousness syllables with a little sub voce flow.<br/><br/>""-I'd get kiss a magical entity today--.""<br/><br/>""-find that guy over there if he was in what everyone else would think was just a tree?""<br/><br/>""I never understood a lot""<br/>""Cause I didn't need a lot, have a lot""<br/><br/>""A basic family recipe from Kanoa for that.

For fucks sake-""<br/><br/>""It happened overnight as if someone flipped a switch<br/>Flipped the script on this shit""<br/><br/>""homes, maybe don't think as much with your dick next time, y'know?""<br/><br/>Orion drifted further than his feet, further from the group, only absently noting their suitably, sophmoric strategizing. He reached a high spot for the area and planted, looking out over the waving lines of the treetops, cresting in places as the earth beneath broke into cliff facings and treeblight turned bald limbs ashen. Orion considered the messages he so often tried to ignore. Exposing raw nerve to sensation. There was a truth in the patterns of growth and decay. Maybe if he could just see clearer, open his mind wider, the meaning would become clear. Something vast and clothed in secrets brushed against the diaphanous rice-paper walls of this reality.<br/><br/>""Cause even in the shade and it is sunny<br/>Somewhere over the rainbow, walking down this brick road<br/>I stare at walls at night, hoping they do not fall down""<br/><br/>The sun came out from behind some clouds, it's blinding light made Orion's teeth hurt. A sound like a swarm of cicadas just at the edge of hearing emanated from the room of his mouth. Orion coughed, a sharp pain shot through his ankles. Teeth gitted, grinding together in a clenched jaw. Orion squeezed his eyes tight as truth burned through his central nervous system, boring through the nerve roots behind his ocular cavity, drilling glowing, red cavities into his occipital lobe, turning his brain into a bore mine plotted by dice rolls and overseen by Escher.<br/><br/>Something wet and warm dripped onto Orion's bottom lip, he licked and tasted copper. Rubbing a knuckle under his nose it came back with a smear of blood. Orion's vision wavered. He remembered to breath.<br/><br/>Shiffing blood into the back of his throat, Orion spat it back out onto the grass. He composed himself, stepping back out of the sunlit spot in which he stood. The guitar was gently leaning against a tree. When had he put it down?<br/><br/>Taking up the instrument Orion wandered back towards his gaggle, wiping the blood on his face off of the inside of his shirt sleeve. He looked up as something pulled at a primitive part of his intuition to see August slowly peel herself away from Mary, wet with lakewater. Another line of blood dribbled out of Orion's nose. He rubbed it off on his shoulder as he continued playing.<br/><br/>""But Danny is also right. If what you guys are all saying is true, she didn't want to kill the boy, and may have been pushed to desperation by the disappearing animals. Maybe something worse is out there, and she knows what it is?""<br/><br/>""We're all we got, don't let me down""<br/><br/>""-you just kissed a shape shifting spirit creature.

Well...what you guys all just did.""<br/><br/>""We're all we got, don't let me down""<br/><br/>Orion frowned. <span class=""bb-i"">What they had done.</span> What they would do. Orion hummed thoughtfully to himself. With meandering purpose, Orion walked back towards the shore. Sitting a few feet up from the edge, Orion dropped, unceremoniously to the ground, legs folding in front of him with surprising grace. Placing the guitar on his lap, Orion stopped playing, letting his fingers splay over it's top. He was still and silent. Well, mostly silent, whispering to himself as he waited for the water to breech.<br/><br/>""Don't let me down""<br/>""Don't let me down""<br/>""Don't let me down""</div>"

Carrying the fox through the water wasn't exactly enjoyable, halfway through she seriously considered leaving her at the bottom of the lake. But no, she had questions that needed answering. Kanoa put her clothes back on, not minding the fact that she was still wet. ""Now how should I wake you up..."" She said, looking down at Yui. She didn't feel like waiting for her to wake up, there was no telling how long that would take. She knelled down, and placed a hand on the fox's forehead. She was as cold as a corpse, and she wasn't breathing. The not breathing thing wasn't a problem, Kitsune's had no need to breathe, they only did so to make themselves appear more human to people. Her body temperature was an issue, however. Kitsune's had a fire inside of them, sort of like a pilot light, as such, they tended to be very warm creatures. For her to be so cold meant that she was only a few steps away from death's door... Not literally, no one knows where Death lives, he's pretty shy.<br/><br/>While she pondered what to do with Yui she frowned as the voices of some of the club members grew louder. She wasn't surprised they were bickering, this was a problematic situation and their personalities were bound to clash. But that didn't make it any less annoying. Kanoa turned towards them and let out a sigh, they were even making plans without her. ""I'm glad you're willing to come up with a plan so quickly, but I already have something in mind. This spirit's inner fire has nearly gone out, it's in no shape to use any magic on us, let alone run anywhere. A cell won't be needed. As for... Ramon, we'll have the authorities come and pick him up, he should be fine in a hospital."" <br/><br/>Just as Kanoa looked back to Yui, she realized the spirit had woken up, and she was staring right at her. ""Oh, you recovered more quickly than I thought you would."" She said, though Yui said nothing in return. There was a dazed, yet hungry look in her eyes. ""Now look, I know what you're thinking, but I would suggest you not do it.""<br/><br/>Yui did not even hear the warning, and wasted no time in sinking her teeth into Kanoa's shoulder. Instantly she reared back, and began to squirm on the ground with her hands at her throat. ""Honestly... Don't you know that anyone with moderate control of their magic can weaponize it against parasites? You might as well drink battery acid."" <br/><br/>Kanoa rolled her stinging shoulder and picked up Yui, who had little strength to fight back. ""Let's head back to the tree house, I'll call the police and let them know the missing boy has been found. hmm. One of you can stay and watch him if you want."" <br/><br/></div>"

Things were going fast-- but her thoughts struggled so slowly to catch up to the reality. Mary felt like she had been standing here for a month! She knew that wasn't the case; Danny and she had come to some kind of agreement--? Then August did something diplomatic and mature... Jackson said something creepy! She knew that for a fact... Orion was playing music, because his priorities were on point. Kanoa had stomped off with Yui in tow... and poor, precious, sweet, innocent, Ramon was still unconscious. <font color=""#333333""><div class=""bb-right"">Et tu?</div></font>And where was she? <br/><br/>Why did she feel warmer than before?<br/><br/>It was nice...<br/><br/>For a minute, she thought she may have just died from the experience. It was a distinct possibility, after all. She wasn't very fit, she smoked, she overate, she didn't do shit, and when she went outside, it was only to sit around in a depressing place. Maybe the shock of the cool water was too much for her system to handle? Was death this pleasant?<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">Why are you such a stereotypical goth sometimes, Mary?</span><br/><br/>Mary opened her eyes.<br/><br/>As her thoughts snapped back to reality, Mary felt a sickening churn in her stomach, her lungs felt full but without air, and what felt like ice pounding against her skull. She gripped the bridge of her nose as the migraine hit, she could feel cool air bush against her skin, she felt the dying trees trying to sap her energy like the Kitsune. Something was keeping her warm though-- August, apparently! She'd seen her shivering and just... done it. Despite her relationship with physical contact, Mary wasn't used to this, she would have thanked her then... but...<br/><br/><span class=""bb-i"">... Buddha, she <span class=""bb-b"">really</span> needed a smoke.</span><br/><br/>Mary glanced at the body of poor, sweet, innocent Ramon laying amongst the dirt and leaves, then to the rest of dumbfounded schoolmates. Business first; ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Okay, so like, I know I've kinda followed Kanoa on pretty much everything she's said, but can we all agree that calling the pigs--</font>"" She spoke to Danny, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">-- No offense Daniel--</font>"" she continued, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">-- is a terrible idea that absolutely no good will come from?</font>""<br/><br/>August, for her part, was slack jawed at how fast Kanoa had decided to shoot down not only any chance of team work or team planning, but also how quick she was to simply leave Ramon to whatever fate had in store for him. Ignoring that the girl barely even seemed to register the attack on her shoulder, Kanoa's lackadaisical attitude towards anything the group said or did was starting to get frustrating. The redhead agreed quickly with Mary.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Yeah, calling the cops to just take him in would be a poor choice, not only in general, but for Ramon as well. He'd be beyond confused, and probably paranoid. He deserves an explanation at least.""</font><br/><br/>Somewhere in the distance, a sharp, oriental note rang over the water.<br/><br/>""Offense taken, but I'd rather avoid talking in circles,"" Daniel replied off-handedly. ""We can't go to the cops directly, I agree with that, but I can. I'm not talking about getting my dad involved -this is the last thing either of us need today of all things- No, you guys go on ahead. If Kanoa says he'll live without further magical attention I'll take care of getting an ambulance here and... get rid of our tracks while I'm at it."" Biting the inside of his cheek he seemed to deliberate with himself before confirming that this was indeed what he needed to do -whether he wanted to or not-  with a nod. ""Yeah, that sounds like the best thing to do. We can worry about his mental breakdown once he can stand on his own two feet. If push comes to shove and they find out I was here you guys won't have to worry about being implicated; they'll be able to believe that there was no one with me.""<br/><br/>Picking up the surprisingly light boy, It was only then that Danny noticed that August had been clinging to Mary to...warm her? <span class=""bb-i"">It seems that August's 'allergy' to people doesn't include those of the same sex. Or is it....?</span><br/> <br/>August looked at Daniel, the red head still rubbing Mary's bare arms in a somewhat awkward hug from behind The girl was freezing! She'd need to get clothed soon...why was everyone looking at her like that? For a girl who could easily read people, it was confusing and mildly concerning that the entire group seemed to think she was bipolar or couldn't touch peo-ohhhh. Her green eyes blinked as she looked down, realizing that she was clinging to a half naked pot head after having freaked out multiple times about being touched. Seems she hadn't made the specifics of her powers clear. She looked back up to Daniel. She could explain later, if anyone asked, fuck it.<br/><br/>Another sharp note, closer now.<br/><br/>Mary very briefly considered shifting in August's, or even awkwardly muttering some form of thanks to the girl but... August was <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> warm. Like, warm enough that she didn't even need to wax poetic about the complexities of human warmth! She could just kinda, enjoy it, and not enter some cardiac hypothermic shock, or like, whatever. As August practically rubbed her body against Mary's, she figured, she'd just let this play out as long as possible, fuck it! <br/> <br/>It was either the after effects of the Blue Lotus, or the fact that Danny was concentrating so hard on the interaction she was having with August that caused her to crack a smirk, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I still say it's a dumb idea, man.</font>""<br/> <br/>Danny glanced between the boy in his arms and Yui, recalling how August had lied on the bed. His face turning beet red, the boy clamped down on the thought, shaking it away vigorously. It couldn't be what he absolutely in no way thought. After all, they had supposedly just met yesterday and hardly even interacted the entire morning and while they were teenagers they couldn't possibly already... Danny's could feel his face starting to turn red again but with his hands now full could only bury his face in his chest. ""Right,"" came Danny's voice from behind the curtain of black hair that obscured his face. ""From here on I'm going to try focusing my abilities on making sure our tracks disappear, but I'd rather prefer it if you guys didn't make my job any harder. Orion, that means you.""<br/><br/>A third, slightly caustic note.</div>"

The boy was blushing. Shit, that was cute. However, she focused on what he was saying.<br/> <br/> <font color=""#39b54a"">""So, what? We rescued him just to let him freak out about everything that happened, good luck dealing with the revelation that there's magic and coping with the emotional trauma of having been kidnapped? That's fucking stupid. If you're going to do that, I'm staying with you so I can talk to him when he wakes up. It isn't fair to just leave him to his own devices, he deserves better than that.""</font><br/> <br/> August pointed at Daniel, giving a quirk of the lips.<br/> <br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Plus, wouldn't there be an investigation for any anonymous tips that lead to a half naked boy just suddenly popping up after several days of going missing? I don't see anyone wearing gloves, so wouldn't our forensic...sssstuff be left all over him?""</font><br/> <br/> August wasn't sure exactly how forensics worked, or if a small town like Oakenheim even HAD advanced stuff like that, but she'd seen enough crime shows to know that the fact that the teens had touched the boy would probably leave some kind of evidence of their interaction with him. She scanned Kanoa for a moment before giving a sigh.<br/> <br/><font color=""#39b54a""> ""Seriously, can we just slow the frick down for a moment and talk? Everyone's jumping to conclusions and ideas and plans all on their own, just take a breathe and THINK! The girl whose brain goes a thousand different directions every second is telling you to slow down here, there's something wrong with that. Let's just work together on this! Aren't we supposed to be a group?""</font><br/><br/>A languid, ascerbic chord.<br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">I agree with chilling for a sec...</font>"" Mary chimed in,  ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Hey! I think I might be a positive influence on you...</font>""  whispering to August, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Like, you know, like with emotional vibes and stuff? I don't know...</font>""<br/><br/>The redhead glanced down at Mary, mental train of thought derailed instantaneously by her remark. Emotional vibes? Well, she was an empath, so Mary WOULD probably affect her in some way. Train of thought barrelled down the road as she analyzed the concept.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Well, that could make sense, your own emotions seem very tame, probably from the herbs you smoke, so I imagine they'd probably be somewhat...calmer...than most. Easier to follow...possibly anyway.""</font><br/><br/>She couldn't take emotions from skin to skin contact, and even though August was being careful to avoid touching the girl's underwear, it would make sense that the residual from being in such close conta-FOCUS. Underwear emotional transfer could come afterwards. The redhead focused back on Danny as he spoke, the logic train hitting it's brakes hard.<br/><br/>Danny shook his head. ""Forensics don't work that way. Even if for whatever reason you're in the system Oakenheim doesn't have the budget for its own forensic lab anyway so it would be shipped off to the big city, but they won't even bother to do so, considering how long he's been going through the brush."" Shifting Ramon in his arms so that the two would be more comfortable, Danny added, ""As for letting him think he's crazy...I'm not saying that. Just to approach him once he's discharged from the hopsital. It would seem a bit odd if a couple of people he's probably only seen in passing show up to his bedside, right?""<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""Oh good, so our cops ARE incompetent...and as opposed to just waking up in the forest after going missing for several days because a fox hypnotized you? You really think us showing up is weirder than that?""</font><br/><br/>Another chord, close on the spine, almost chastising.<br/><br/>August huffed for a moment, quirking her lips as she pondered the situation.<br/><br/>After what had to be a decade of silence, Mary shrugged-- rather awkwardly, still being in the embrace of August-- but shrug she did! ""<font color=""#be81f7"">I'm starving.</font>"" She let the coment hang before continuing, ""<font color=""#be81f7"">Umm, he probably is too...?</font><br/><br/>""It's more of a budget thing. The state funds precincts that actually have a crime problem other than 'that wacky t'backy' going about."" Danny explained. ""But at this point, I don't really care about what you guys think. I'm going to get back to the lot and call an ambulance. I won't 'narc out' as Mary seems to think but I'm not going to let his health worsten just because you guys are worried about saving your own skins."" His voice was resolute, there was something in his eye. If they were going to stop him, they'd need to physically force him to stop.<br/><br/>Silence from the string section.<br/><br/>A huff, a quirk of the lips, and August wrote Daniel off as a lost cause on this matter. He clearly wasn't listening to her at all, instead going off what he felt she was saying instead of what she was actually saying. The redhead was wasting her breath. Instead, she glanced at the girl in her arms, deciding to try and change gears. It then slowly dawned on her that she had essentially been dry humping Mary for the past few minutes. Any other day she'd have blushed, but now she was just frustrated at the stubborness of the group, so instead she just kind of looked at her awkwardly in her arms, not wanting to let go to make sure she stayed warm. Or at least, that was...mostly it. Like 98% of it. She'd be lying if she said she wasn't enjoying it on a bit more...primal level.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""You should...probably get dressed. I have some food in my backpack...it'll help until we get back to town and get real food.""</font><br/><br/>""<font color=""#be81f7"">Y-yeah... thanks...!</font>"" Mary, as opposed to August, had no problem blushing as she broke from the embrace of the young woman to instead shuffle off awkwardly and seek the embrace of her shirt and jacket. She sighed, speaking to herself as she got dressed,  ""<font color=""#be81f7"">What's narc-o got against a vote...?</font>""<br/><br/>August chewed her lip for a moment, thoughts scattering as she lost control of them and her focus broke free, hitting about eighteen different topics as she cast one last look at Ramon. This wasn't right...this wasn't why she had joined. Her eyes shot to Kanoa. Find the silver lining. At least the boy was no longer in the cave, being fed on.<br/><br/><font color=""#39b54a"">""...what exactly do you have in mind anyway?""</font><br/><br/>Jackson had remained quiet as every argued about what to do with Ramon, with Daniel being insistent on involving a bunch of others in this and putting the rest of them at risk. While he agreed that they shouldn't sacrifice the kid's health just to save their own skins,  he also agreed that calling the police would cause a whole lot of problems as well. Not only that, but he could easily imagine what Ramon would be feeling once he came to. <br/><br/>Jackson shivered as he instinctively gripped his arm, taking a breath before he decided to finally speak up.<br/><br/><font color=""#00aeef"">""I say that we stay with him until he wakes up, so we can help keep his sanity intact. I can say from experience that this is definitely going to fuck him up,  but it would be helpful for him to be able to talk to somebody about what just happened. It really makes you feel crazy when you know something happened and everyone else tells you're crazy for saying it."" <span class=""bb-i"">or call you a murderer</span> </font><br/><br/>Jackson's hands clenched into fists for a moment before he let out a breath he didn't know he had been holding. Running a hand through his hair in exasperation, he continued to give his two cents on the matter. <font color=""#00aeef"">""Besides that, I don't think there is any need to get him to a hospital at the moment, given that Kanoa stabilized him. It's an unneeded risk, and in my opinion, I think we should be a little more focused on what we are going to do with the fox spirit after we're done with it. Are we gonna let it go, kill it, or just keep as our club's pet/mascot/slave. I'm not in favor of the first option, seeing as how it's currently starved, and more than likely pissed off, it'd probably come after one of us. Last time I checked, none of us have Kanoa's nifty little magic trick to make our life force poisonous to it, so we'd probably be in the same position as Ramon here.""</font><br/><br/>""That's three for three for what is clearly the objectively smarter decision here,"" Mary snarked, casting a glance in Danny's direction, ""like, two for just dropping him off at some rando hospital-- what do you think Orion?""<br/><br/>Orion put the guitar down slowly onto the grass next to Ramon and straightened. It was like watching a massive constuction excavator slowly rumble to life. He looked at Mary as he did so, lips pressed thoughtfully. He looked at Jackson.  He looked at August. He looked at Danny. He spoke.<br/><br/>""I think that we might be forgetting one vital, little tidbit to this tapestry of travesties."" Orions limbs gesticulated his words slowly, with the same industrial precision. ""We are not, in point of fact, the authorities here...in any sense of the word."" Orion's eyes slide across Konoa's back and down to the Kitsune, before returning to Ramon. ""No matter who our daddies are, how firm we stand on the moral high ground, or how clairvoyant our super cool psychic powers might be."" Orion pressed the edge of his heel into the soft earth, slowly rolling the sole of his shoe forwards, pressing with all his belied weight.<br/><br/>""That said...I think in this impermanent world of conditional realities. Or. Whatever. The. Fuck. Is actually going on, we could do with a little more truth, and a little less of our fine lying tongues."" Orion rolled his head back to to regard them from within the tiny, designer frames at the end of his nose.<br/><br/>""We talk to Ramon. We see what he has to say. We drop a tree branch on his leg and let Danny boy go tell the crushers that he found him while hiking. Then, perhaps, if we can restrain our lust, fear, and fury, maybe we could talk to her."" His finger finished it's slow unfurling to straighten and point at the Kitsune.<br/><br/>""It. Is not an it. It's not a monster. It is a person, or a being, or whatever nomenclature you like, presumable from the same fucked up world we are in, with nice taste in women's clothing and terrible taste in boys."" Orion shrugged, letting the mantle of gravitas slip from his narrow shoulders and from his candor.<br/><br/>""Or we skin it and get ourselves a nice pair of foxskin boots to share. Whatev's""</div>"

She had tried her best to ignore it, but the colors were beginning to be too much for her to handle. Everyone's voices added another hue to a spiraling firestorm of colors. Closing her eyes did nothing, the best she could do was try to drown the sound out. But then, she'd be effectively ignoring everyone. What good was this condition of hers anyhow? The most she could do was visibly see auras of magic, but any individual with a natural tether could learn to sense magic on their own. She was occasionally able to force reality to adhere to her perception of it, but that was far less extravagant than it sounded. The last time she was able to do that, she made a Pepsi taste like a Coke, thrilling. <br/><br/>So, not everyone agreed to her plan, why hadn't she accounted for that? Democracy could be such a pain sometimes. She honestly didn't feel like babysitting Ramon, and anything he could tell them, Yui could tell them as well.<br/><br/>""Excuse me."" Yui spoke in a raspy, tired voice.  <br/><br/>""What, feel like talking?""<br/><br/>""Yes..."" Kanoa glanced at the club members, and then sat the fox down on the forest floor. <br/><br/>""Why did you kidnap a human? Even if there is a shortage of animals to draw energy from, that is no excuse to risk revealing yourself to humanity. You should know this, shouldn't you?"" Kanoa stared down at Yui with an unforgiving expression. ""What made you think you could break the rules?""<br/><br/>Yui squirmed like a nervous worm, gripping one of her long tails and ruffling it. ""I... Was so hungry. Flora here isn't enough, I was going to go mad."" She said, grinding her teeth.<br/><br/>""From where I'm standing you already have, did you really believe you could get away with this?""<br/><br/>""She... Said I would be fine as long as I did as she said. That as long as the human didn't die it would be fine."" The fox was whimpering now, like a child that had been lied to. Kanoa blinked rapidly in confusion.<br/><br/>""Could we not play the pronoun game, who are you talking about?"" She asked, taking out her notepad. Yui suddenly had a distressed look on her face, in her dazed state she had forgotten something important. ""This person told you not to mention them, didn't they?"" Yui's eyes shifted away from Kanoa, she was a bad liar.<br/><br/>""What's her name? What did she look like? Tell me and I might help you."" Yui looked back to her quickly, and she could see in her eyes the back and forth struggle as she decided how to respond to the proposition.<br/><br/>""She... Her name is-<span class=""bb-s"">Walking upon scattered bones, crushed and sharp and molten</span>.... huh? Her name is-<span class=""bb-s"">Drinking of a goblet filled with boiling bile</span>... eh?"" The fox looked around in a panic, and touched her throat as if to find something that did not belong there. When she attempted to answer she began to speak in a voice that sounded distorted by static and a mouth full of water.<br/><br/>Kanoa took a step back, her mouth shaking. ""You've been hexed. D-do you even know what you are saying?"" The words were surely simply distorted nonsense to the others, but Kanoa could just barely make out what was being said. She was out of her field of expertise here, maybe if she had been alive for ten thousand years she could handle this, but as she was, she was not prepared to listen to eldritch language without going insane. Kanoa began to breathe as if she had just done ten rounds against Mike Tyson in his prime.<br/><br/>""Whoever this bitch is thinks she's real fucking funny doesn't she!? Force me to listen to the fucking poetry of the Old Ones!? How does one even DO such a thing!? Simply reading those disgusting runes is enough to... to..."" Kanoa stopped her rambling and looked to the rest of the club. She supposed everyone had to have at least one crazy outburst. She clenched her teeth and forced her quick breathing into heavy long puffs.<br/><br/>""Whoever this woman is, has placed a hex on Yui to make sure she wouldn't reveal who she is..."" She looked back at Yui for a moment before turning back to the others. ""I'll keep the fox in my home, she should have plenty of food there......"" Her temples were throbbing, she rubbed her forehead before speaking again. ""Ramon... whatever he has to say is useless to us. Daniel, if you could provide a valid reason as to how we found him and give it to the police, that would be great. If anyone wants to visit him and make sure he's ok, that's fine, but we do not have time to be babysitting him. We've got a witch to hunt.""</div>"

In the state of Maine there exists a town that is a little off the beaten path. It is almost hidden by the dense forest surrounding it, but once you see it, it is hard to forget. The town's claim to fame is it's marvelous architecture and artisans. Many of the buildings are made almost entirely out of wood, and feature engravings of brilliant quality. Because of this, the town is a semi-popular tourist spot, and has been named Oakenheim. 

Oakenheim is a relatively peaceful town, however, it has a negative stigma attached to it. Strange things happen there, things people have great difficulty explaining away. Items may shuffle mysteriously in people's homes, pets vanish, and in the local inn there is a room that no one dares enter. In spite of this, the locals stubbornly live there, and some claim it simply adds to the town's ""Rustic Charm.""

Recently, certain events have become too extreme to ignore. While no one's lives have been at risk as of yet, more and more personal accounts of supernatural activity have been heard. Local authorities refuse to take any of these claims seriously, yet they continue to rise in frequency. 

This is where our story begins. People may not be able to deal with these supernatural events, but we are 'special.' One way or another, we are connected to the spiritual and macabre.

<div class=""bb-center"">_____</div>

Basically, this will be a RP with a heavy focus on character development and solving various problems caused by supernatural entities. our characters will be a part of a club (which my character will invite them to) in high school. Now while the club is in the high school, this RP will not be about the goings on in said school. (trying to go though classes in a RP is a nightmare)

<div class=""bb-center"">RULES

1. No power playing/godmoding.
2. Stay active, not posting for days without a proper excuse is unacceptable.
3. No Bullying people, and try not to start flame wars.
4. Please try to have decent grammar, it doesn't have to be perfect, but it does need to be easy to read.</div>

Appearance: (An image is fine, but I'd like a description to go with it if you use one.)

Tether: (A tether is the means through which an individual is able to perceive the supernatural. A few are born with enough spiritual sensitivity to gain a tether, these people are simply called naturals. Others gain a tether though different means, of which there are many. Being connected to an entity of some kind is the most common way normal people gain a tether.)

Ability/Talents: (You may have one <span class=""bb-i"">specific</span> ability, and a maximum of three talents. Please keep in mind that our characters can't fire energy blasts or anything over the top like that, also I don't expect everyone to be a martial arts master. No sensory abilities either.)

Gender:Male
Age:16

Personality: Jackson is a rather reserved individual, though not so much that he won't try to talk to people. Normally, he can be rather friendly and outgoing, but he immediately clams up whenever he becomes afraid, agitated, or angered, fleeing from these emotions and the general area.

Appearance:<img src=""http://cache.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/1445187-bigthumbnail.jpg""/>
Jackson around 5'10, with black hair and dark blue eyes. He usually wear some type of jacket, jeans, T-shirt, and sneakers, but if the school has a uniform then he won't have any objections to wearing it. His skin is slightly tanned, since he likes to spend a lot of time outside, and he sometimes dyes strands of his hair different colors when he feels the need to change things up a bit. He is somewhat good looking, but that is usually hidden by his hood if he has one. He has a strange set of scars, three perpendicular claw marks, that goes from his shoulder to his elbow on his right side. He hides it whenever he can, and when asked about he will immediately clam up and attempt to leave the area.

Tether: Jackson is naturally connected to the supernatural, having being subjected to hearing voices of spirits for as long as he can remember. Until a month ago, he hadn't thought much of it, but then an event happened that changed his perspective on it, and made him afraid off it.

Ability/Talents: Ability: Physical Soul Projection, this ability is a side effect of having Aphosis inside of him. It allows him to project Aphosis' soul outside of him to interact with the world in a way similar to telekinesis, but at a cost. While using this ability, Jackson increases the chance of Aphosis taking over his body, as it takes a rather sizable to use Aphosis' soul in this way. When using this ability, or possessed by Aphosis, his right eye will glow an eerie silver color(Think Black Rock Shooter)

Talents he has are being an experienced Outdoors man and survivalist, as he spent his past summers in the grand outdoors with his family and takes pride in his survivl skills. He is also very good with knives, and has a collection of them at his house and never leaves home without at least three on his person, once for the opprotunity to show off, now because he's afraid to leave the house with out at least something to protect him. 

Recent history:

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""All my life, I've felt connected to the world of the unseen, of sprits and demons, of all the things we tell ourselves isn't true so that we can sleep at night without fear of what we don't understand. I had that luxury, cause I've heard them all my life, the spirits on the other side of our world. And I fear them, more than anything else. They left their mark on me long ago, and it burns me to this day.""</span></span>
    Jackson is, or rather was, an outgoing individual, easily able to make friends with others. He liked hanging out with friends, and while he wasn't the best student, he managed to get by in his studies for the most part. That changed about a month before his transfer to Armstrong. He had gone over to a friends house for a party, a small one just for his group of close friends. Late in the night, one of them pulled out a Ouija board, and everyone but Jackson cheered in delight. They all started messing with it, calling to spirits and asking ridiculous questions, while Jackson tried to decided whether or not he should just leave.

    One of his friends, seeing that Jackson wasn't joining in the fun, started to make fun of his apparent fear, calling him a scaredy cat. The rest of them joined in, trying to get him o join in. Jackson knew that what he was doing was a bad idea, but the peer pressure eventually made him cave in. He sat down at the table and put his hands on the Ouija board with everyone else, planning to ask a simple question than get the hell out of here. But then he got curious.

    He knew he had some connection to that world, hearing things that could never be explained, voices from the darkness of shadows, and the weird sensation he got in some places that were supposedly haunted. He figured that he might as well try and use it to get some answers. So he focused on the board and prepared to ask the spirits his question.

He never got the chance.

    Everything went black, and the sounds of screams filled the air, air rushing around him like he was in the center of a hurricane. It wasn't until something grabbed his arm and pulled him backwards away from the board, were he had been frozen in fear, that darkness vanished. By then it was already to late.

All of his friends were dead, some seeming as if they had been ripped apart by some wild animals, others as if they had the very  drained from them. He was left their alone, with a grim wound to remind him of this night for the rest of his life.

After a month of investigation, he was cleared of having anything to do with the murders due to lack of any evidence and was set free from holding by the police. His family moved to their new home, and him to a new school, trying to recover some semblance of normalcy. Jackson was very much changed by the experience. He became very reclusive, trying his best to avoid contact with others, began reading up on charms and other magic items that were said to ward of spirits and other such things. He jumps at every shadow he sees, and goes near ballistic in the dark, He has been reduced to nothing but a shell of the boy he used to be.

And that wasn't the end of it. Shortly after he arrived in Oakenheim, he began to have dreams, nightmares, and hallucinations. He felt sick a lot, and felt strange urges to hurt people, break things, and cause overall Chaos. The cause, a spirit known as Aphosis, had taken residence inside of him during that night, and was trying to possess him, by driving him insane. However, due to him being exposed to the supernatural all of his life, he's fairly resistant to Aphosis' power, and can even make use of the spirit to use his ability, thogh he rarely makes use of it due to the strain the ability has over him.</div></div></div>"

Tether is simply a term for whatever it is that allows someone to perceive the supernatural, it 'ties' them to it. Your character knowing this specific term will depend on who they know. If they were born into a family that is aware of the supernatural, then they would likely know it, if your character was say... possessed by a spirit at some point or something, then they may not know the term, but they would still <span class=""bb-b"">have</span> a tether. As for a tether being hurt or stolen, that would only happen if say, their tether was actually a physical item, or a spirit that isn't permanently connected to them, or did not possess enough spiritual energy to leave a lasting impression on them.

As for abilities and talents, an ability isn't necessarily tied to the talents. An example of an ability is Psychometry, the ability to basically read the memories of an object. a talent would be something like lockpicking. So abilities aren't inherently something you can teach someone, but talents might be.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>: Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Often stoic and thoughtful but by no means cold or apathetic, Maxwell is often misunderstood due to his slightly imposing presence, his stern expression and penetrating eyes making him seem unfriendly and permanently irritated. Far from cold and apathetic, Maxwell cares a great deal about his friends and family and would go to great lengths to keep them from harms way, it is simply that he lacks the ability to completely express that sentiment. Following his 'awakening' he has been left with an almost unquenchable sense of curiosity about the world that until recently had been so familiar. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Maxwell stands at 5ft11, has a toned but non muscular build and possesses a tanned complexion with forest green eyes and grey hair. The colour of his hair, an abnormal colour for a man of his age is the result of the manner in which his tether was originally forged. His body is free from any scarring, no small miracle considering his recent history and other then his near constant stern expression he possesses no true distinguishing physical features.

In terms of clothing he shows little variation on a day to day basis. On his upper body Maxwell wears a plain shirt, a loosely tied tie and a thick high collared hooded jacket that reaches down to just below his waist. On his lower body he wears a pair of simple cargo pants and brown laced boots. Only his hands and face remain uncovered by such form of material. Lately he has spent an unhealthy amount of time with a certain mask in his possession, though he has yet to be seen to actually wear it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether</span>: Maxwell is no natural and therefore the manifestation of his tether is no natural occurrence. Nor is it granted to him by some benevolent or symbiotic entity. His tether manifests as a result of a blending of spiritual energies, though whether such an effect was the intent is open to debate. What there can be doubt of was the acts necessity. The presence of his tether is denoted by a mark on his chest, a burned black hand print that only Maxwell seems to be able to perceive.

The event that precluded his 'awakening' was his own death. Or what should have been his death at any rate, the circumstances of which are sketchy to say the least. It began when an entity beyond human perception anchored itself to him, a spiritual being that feeds upon the spiritual energy inherent to all life. This immaterial entity, unable to sustain its own existence latches itself to another like a spiritual parasite. Such a haunting if left to progress invariably leads to death of the haunted individual, often culminating in an event designed to inflicted grief and suffering in its wake. 

The symptoms exhibited are constant in all cases with little variation, beginning with lethargy and emotional numbing as the haunted individual's essence is slowly suffused by the constant presence of their malign guest. Highly susceptible to suggestion these victims are easily manipulated and are often the victims of apparent suicides. Maxwell had climbed onto the railing of a bridge and without a moments hesitation had stepped into space. Maxwell remembers the act, but not the intention. Nor does he remember hitting the ground.

All he was left with was a feeling that something very important had been taken from him. And that that something had been returned, in a manner of speaking. When a Hollow, a being named for its victims rather than itself feeds it takes more then it needs. There had not been enough left of Maxwell to return what had been taken. So the Hollows essence had been blended with his own to make up the difference. Though as for the type of being that could accomplish such a feat that is another matter entirely.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether Origin</span> - <span class=""bb-i"">Hollow</span> (Will be a link to a codex entry later)

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability/Talents</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Ability</span> – Psychokinesis? - Maxwell has developed the ability to interact with the physical world to a small extent through the force of his will alone, though the force that he can exert is somewhat weak, no stronger than the force he could physically exert himself. With that said the ability to remotely extend his reach has had its uses despite its limited capacity. Maxwell himself is not completely convinced as to whether this 'ability' is indeed the phenomenon people refer to as psychokinesis and not something more...sinister. When he uses this ability it feels like something is looming over him.

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Observant</span> – Maxwell is an observant individual who notices details that many people overlook, though that is not to say that it makes these details known unless directly asked. 
<span class=""bb-i"">Strong Willed</span> – He is not sure if he was always this way but since his 'incident' he has had the strangest feeling that his psyche has been reinforced somehow. Maxwell has now has a stronger will than most normal people, allowing him to resist abilities and phenomenon that seek to subvert free will through subtle and aggressive means. This makes him resistant and not immune however.
<span class=""bb-i"">Pale Touch</span> – Not a talent per see but a phenomenon that has become apparent following his near death experience and the advent of his so called telekinesis. Maxwell has a sickening effect on plants when he stands too close to them, causing them to wilt up and even die. He gains nothing from this that he knows of and is quite disturbed by it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent History</span>: Originally from England, the Maxwell family has relocated several times during the last two decades, having spent time significant periods of time in England, Germany and France before eventually settling in Oakenheim, Maine. John's father Adrian Maxwell is an author of some renown, especially within the supernatural fiction genre. His step mother Alice Maxwell works are a teacher in one of the local Kindergartens. And until several months ago John was just a student with normal student problems. That was when the 'haunting' first began.

From the point of view of his friends and family John became increasingly distant and reclusive. And then without warning he climbed over the railing of a bridge and stepped over the edge. His rehabilitation over the following month had been something of an experience. He felt non the emotions that the doctors told him that he must have been felling, nor did he ever remember feeling them. He remembered stepped off the bridge, he couldn't deny the fact regardless, but as for the intention to do so he had no recollection of. Looking back it was as if he were viewing the memories of another person entirely rather than his own with a detached clarity that he had never experienced before. 

He has recently returned to his 'life' after being given a clean bill of health. His new found clarity forced to the surface questions that he had never even considered asking before. And a sense that all of this had happened before.</div>"

Let me know if I should alter anything.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> August Battaglia
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> August is easily excited and gets caught up in the heat of the moment frequently. Passionate and always thinking at a breakneck pace, it's amazing she hasn't gone insane or gotten herself killed. A hopeless romantic with an overpowering logical streak, she's broken more than a few hearts in her life, both boys and girls. Her train of thought, sometimes, makes little to no sense when she's in one of her brainstorms. She's deathly afraid of drowning, and cannot swim. It is exceptionally hard for her to not tinker with something and try to modify, streamline, fix, or enhance it, often with disastrous results.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Despite standing at a minimal 5', August is hard to miss. She has wild, vibrant red hair reaching down to her hips, often braided or tied back in intricate designs meant to control it's inevitable frazzles, frizzles, and tangles, but still make it presentable. Sharp green eyes stare over thin circular glasses in silver frames, sitting atop a perky nose. Her lips seem to almost always be pouting, except when they're being bitten in concentration. Often wears simple sweaters with jeans and brightly colored shoes of some sort, her favorite having a nebula painted across the top, alongside a worn beanie with googly eyes sewn onto it, looking like some kind of blob monster eating the top of her head. Weighing in at around 105 lbs, her figure is incredibly modest, with no chest or behind to really speak of. Her voice tends to squeak and crack when it hits a certain volume, especially when frustrated or annoyed, or when she inevitably gets shocked by one of her quick-fixed electronics.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> A near death experience has made August not only more appreciative of life, but also brought her closer to the spirit world. Something came back with her from the other side, and though she doesn't fully understand it, she's desperate to learn all she can about it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Empathy - August can read emotions in a given area or object. The stronger the emotion at the time, the easier they are to read. Complex or convoluted emotions, or areas with many different emotions, are jumbled and wild, something akin to a kaleidoscope in her head where she can't settle on one before another shoves it's way in. Particularly powerful emotions, like trauma, can give her headaches and leave her dazed or confused. This <span class=""bb-b"">can't</span> be used to read emotions in living people.

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> 
Electronic Repairs - There are few electrical systems that can stay broken under August's fingers. Broken radios, flashlights, fuses, she can fix or at least temporarily jerry-rig almost anything that has wires and a current.
Hotwire - A part of her life she'd rather forget, though definitely a useful skill to have, if she can get into a car, she can make it drive, keys or not.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> August is a bit of an odd duck in Oakenheim. Shipped to the town suddenly to stay with her brother due to ""legal issues"", the girl has made a name for herself by ""fixing"" things that were never broken. Locations the locals actively avoid she seeks out with great zeal, mostly for disappointing results, but occasionally it pays off. She's often seen at night riding her bike to some new location or off into the woods. The local sheriff makes it a habit of picking her up on sight during these runs, since her brother almost never knows about them, and they often end with the power in the town going out from her tinkering.</div>"
20083,Oakenheim (Modern Supernatural RP),OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76329-oakenheim-modern-supernatural-rp,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Advanced', 'Slice of Life']",2015-02-09 21:25:00,Darcs,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Mary Janicot
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> While not quite a wallflower, Mary is generally a quiet and calm individual. The emotions she shows are resigned, her smiles are slight, and her frowns more just shrugs than anything. Over the years she has become the type of student that sits in the back of the class and listens to music, when she socializes, she tends to blend in to the group, only <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> talking to those that can keep her interested. Most of her personal relationships fail because of this. People who spend enough time around her say that, at times, she can seem a little 'off' or 'depressed,' in reality; Mary's building apathy toward life stems from her perceived lack of control over the events in her life.

With a sarcastic sense of humor and a penchant for listening to music over conversation. She might make seem standoffish to any passerby. Mary does seek companionship, just on her own terms. If one can't interest her, then she shrugs and cuts her losses; if they can, however, they'll receive a talkative friend, a stereotypical slacker, obsessed with obscure bands, drugs, flowers, and death. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Mary stands tall at 5'7'' with an average, if not slightly well rounded, figure. She has short black hair framing kind brown eyes and a light olive complexion. Her expressions tend to remain neutral, with her most powerful smile being a slight smirk. Her outfits tend to be basic and earth colored, either a dark tank-top or a T-shirt and skinny jeans or a skirt. She is rarely seen without her ear buds or headphones.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Reference"" type=""button"">Reference [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/jkgmhCb.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> Mary believes she is a 'natural,' having seen the weird inner-workings of the universe most people can't perceive for as long as she can remember. While in the regard that she was born with it, she isn't wrong, technically, Mary doesn't naturally have the ability. Mary's mother, Diana, was touched by a gestalt Wicca entity, the 'Mother Goddess' and her father, who left before she was born, was likewise touched by the Mother Goddess' equal and opposite entity, the 'Horned God.'

Mary's body serves as a battleground of sorts for these two spiritual entities, each invading her body, and influencing events in her life. The Mother Goddess and the Horned God, ironically, both influencing her life allows Mary to maintain sentience and autonomy of her own actions, but the conditions around her, within their control, are constantly shifting. Over the years this has turned Mary into a woman who feels content to just glide through life, unaware that while she does, two syncretic spiritual deities are vying for her soul.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> None. <span class=""bb-i"">(May develop later)</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-i"">Sketching:</span> Years spent drawing the flowers growing in the Oakenheim Cemetery have given Mary a talent for drawing quick, accurate sketches.</li><li><span class=""bb-i"">Knowledge of psychoactive botany and mycology:</span> Although not a professional botanist or mycologist, Mary has researched and has a working knowledge of the psychoactive flora of Oakenheim.</li><li><span class=""bb-i"">Artistic Echoic Memory:</span> As opposed to photographic memory, Mary, over the years, has developed a talent for remembering and replaying soundbytes in her head. While she only tends to use this for listening to music without her headphones, theoretically, she could use this type of memory to recall gossip and small bits of information heard.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> Diana Janicot settled into Oakenheim soon after Mary was born, figuring it would be the perfect small town for a single mother to raise a child. That child, of course, was Mary. She was never sad or particularly traumatized, it just seemed that for Mary, each year of her life dimmed her enthusiasm, but only slightly.

She always enjoyed music and nature's beauty, and as she grew older, these two things became constants in her life. While not in school the young girl would often find herself in the Oakenheim Cemetery, enjoying the quiet of the place, as well as it's flowers. As she grew the Oakenheim Cemetery would become her favorite place to hang out, it felt like the only place in the world she held some semblance of control. 

When she entered high school Mary began following local Oakenheim acts around as a groupie, often finding herself in relationships with women much older than her. This is also how she began her recreational drug use, in her own words, it; ""keeps those dreams away."" As opposed to finding a dealer, Mary began devoting her free time to studying psychoactive flora, her hobby has given her a few close brushes with the law.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Soft-spoken and reserved, Everett appears to have all of the trappings of a well-bred young man. However, a strange, predator aura surrounds him, as his mannerisms have a subtle aggression and swagger to them. Naturally curious, he tends to delve into things best left undisturbed, and yet grows quickly irritated by others looking into his past and circumstances. Defensively private to the point of violence, he has been known to injure people that do not heed his warnings and provoke him. Despite that, he is friendly enough with others, and is well-liked among his peers, possibly due to the mystery surrounding him and his family.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Tall and well muscled, with thick, dark hair and defined features, <a href=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/e4/23/a9/e423a90de122895e27a50c8a8c66ec96.jpg"">Everett</a>'s good looks are undoubtedly a contributing factor to his popularity. Even so, there are certain, unsettling qualities to his looks. His sole visible eye has a peculiar yellow color, and his eyepatch is an oddity onto itself. Hints of strange markings on his back are visible on his shoulders, though what actually is there is a complete mystery, as Everett takes great pains to ensure that he is never seen without a shirt.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> A total mystery.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability/Talents:</span> Everett is a low-level telepath, allowing him only the ability to sense others and his surroundings via psychic power, using a form of mental echolocation. This ability works in the dark, underwater, and even when his senses (or anything around him) are obscured by supernatural means. This can also be focused to a single target to produce a psychic pulse strong enough to stun someone for several minutes.

Otherwise, Everett is a very fit individual; stronger than he looks, and surprisingly durable. He possesses a certain natural, predatory charisma, which would be called animal magnetism by some people. Lastly, he has all of the benefits of having been raised in a wealthy family: primarily having an allowance that eclipses the salaries of most of his peers' parents.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> The Oannes family is as old as Oakenheim itself, among the town's founders in the Late Colonial period. Said to have initially been gold miners that funded the town's development, and are now industrialists, they are what can be called ""old money,"" and their reputation in Maine precedes them. More than their wealth, they are known for their eccentricism and scandals. Several members of the family throughout the years have been known lunatics, and several more committed suicide, or other grisly crimes. Naturally, the family's money was always present to cover up such events.

This trend has continued well into the modern day, as Everett's mother committed suicide soon after he was born, and his father has been a recluse since then. As the scion of the family, many expectations are placed on Everett by the community, but he does his best to live up to them. Despite his personal quirks, he is seen as refreshingly normal compared to his ancestors, and there are high hopes for him in the future. Popular among his classmates for his good looks, charm and wealth, Everett has one switch that must not be flipped, and that is his family. He has no tolerance for anyone attempting to pry into his personal affairs or the history of his family, and several hospitalized individuals (their injuries covered up in bribes, naturally) can attest to this fact.</div>"

Gender: Female
Age: 18

Personality: Kanoa is a bit of an oddity to most people. At first glance she seems to have a captivating charisma about her, or at the very least an unusual allure. She often appears to be daydreaming, or looking off towards something that one could swear is just a potted plant. Actually speaking to her, it quickly becomes apparent that she might just simply be eccentric. While she is intelligent and not the least bit naive, she has no regard for social norms and common behavior, often doing things however she pleases. She acts almost as if she is an alien, raised on another world with much different cultural practices. 

Much of her odd behavior stems from what her doctor considers ""The most extreme case of synesthesia he's ever seen."" Simply put, Kanoa's perception of things is not the same as others. Hearing a sound makes her see a color, seeing certain shapes and numbers places notions in her head that logically shouldn't be there. These sensations are the tip of the iceberg, as she seems to experience the world as a whole in a different way.

Kanoa has an awfully frank and carefree attitude, she is not afraid to speak her mind and express herself, no matter the consequences. She remains unperturbed by most things, and has a general disdain for arguments and conflict. She is more than willing to let most things go, and allow people to keep their opinion to themselves. However, Kanoa has a curious mind, and often likes to engage people intellectually. She will bring up topics pertinent and seemingly pointless alike, anything to have a conversation that keeps her interested. She believes herself to be a fairly down to earth person, yet she often has trouble with her sense of self. Questions of existentialism arise in her mind, and as she cannot easily relate to the reality others see, it is an ever uphill battle for her to try and understand herself and how she fits into the world.

In spite of her tendency to prefer things be copacetic and the lazy smile that is almost always on her face, like any person there are clear issues that either irritate her or force her to action. She likes to solve things with a pragmatic mindset, so for someone to either be blinded by passion or selfishness is akin to a sin to her. 

Appearance: Kanoa stands at a height of five feet ten inches tall. She has light golden brown hair that falls down to the middle of her back in wild waves. She has striking violet eyes that showcase her nonchalant personality by almost always being lowered in a relaxed manner. She has a tan skin tone resembling coffee with a heavy amount of cream added to it, she has barely noticeable freckles on her face that she tends to become flustered over when mentioned. 

She has a fit body, though it would be a stretch to say she is toned. Due to a healthy diet and occasional exercise she has a reasonable level of stamina and strength. She has long legs, and a slightly above average bust. As for clothing, she has a bit of an odd taste. She loves to wear school uniforms, even though not a single school within miles has such a dress code. She has an assortment of styles from fictional to replicas of real school's uniforms. When asked why she chooses to wear them, she says they simply ""Have a nice vibe.""

Tether: Kanoa was born into a family of spiritually sensitive Naturals that have origins in ancient Japan, though her mother is Hawaiian. The traditions of the family were hardly carried on, but much of it's knowledge was.  

Ability: Qualia - Officially, Kanoa has ""some form of synesthesia,"" but what she really has is a never before seen condition in her family. Her perception of reality is in fact twisted, but not in a way that science could easily explain. For Kanoa, the things that she sees are her own concrete reality, regardless of however someone else may see it. For the most part, this has no noticeable impact on the world as others see it, however, there are rare cases where Kanoa can alter the default world simply by interacting with something or someone that is different to her.  

Talents: Kanoa enjoys painting, though anything she creates is considered highly abstract to anyone that looks at it, the same goes for her music.... and somehow her poems as well.

Kanoa possess a vast encyclopedia like knowledge of the supernatural thanks to her family lineage. Her mother passed down family secrets, as well as various texts that she painstakingly memorized.

Along with knowledge of the supernatural, Kanoa knows many rituals and spells, that while often time consuming to preform can help in a great many situations.  

Recent history: Kanoa has recently started a 'club of the occult' at Oakenheim High, stating to staff that it is just an innocent club for fans of the supernatural. This is a front however, as Kanoa has decided to use the school as a grounds to gather recruits. She is able to see those that possess a Tether, and she intends to gain their aid in helping her home become a safe place once more.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>  17

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">Playful, Sociable, Sweet, Protective, Childish, Manipulative, Abrasive, &amp; Venomous.</span>

Raven is quite the contradiction appearing as one thing but acting as another. One would think the doe eyed girl holds a secret agenda though she’ll quickly put that notion to rest if asked. Like a chameleon Raven uses empathy to her advantage to quickly relate to strangers or acquaintances, and build relationships. Able to mesh well with almost any crowd she need not worry about being singled out, which is a great advantage especially given one of her talents.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Layers of long wavy hair is neatly brushed up into two shiny ponytails with a portion dyed snow white on the right side. Side swept bangs cannot conceal an ever present mischievous glint in alluringly large greyish eyes. Whether that characteristic is unnerving or captivating lay only with the beholder.  Raven is a slender little thing reaching a height of five foot four, give or take. Adorable would be the first word to describe the alabaster Lolita as she resembles a porcelain doll with long thick eye lashes, flawlessly pale skin, and a radiant smile--albeit a ravishing adult version of a child's toy. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> A medium and communicated with spirits all through her years. She was very susceptible to trickery and unfortunately fell to a scheme. Was manipulated and invited a malevolent spirit to share her body. Something happened during possession and they fused together unable to depart. She is able to share this entities emotions, thoughts, and abilities. Sometimes she cannot control what it decides to do or try to do but she was able to learn to counteract its hateful sway at times. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Pain_Manipulation"">Pain manipulation</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span>
1. <span class=""bb-i"">You’re getting sleepy:</span> 
One thing her <span class=""bb-s"">fake</span> psychic mother taught her well was how to bullshit out of any situation. She is highly persuasive and a decent liar. 

2. <span class=""bb-i"">Ooo, piece of candy:</span> 
A bit of a klepto Raven often swipes anything and everything that catches her eye. Like a perfectly timed dance Raven has become so good at theft that hardly anyone notices. Her movements so natural or swift that witnesses doubt what they saw or never saw her at all.  

3. <span class=""bb-i"">Hipbone connected to the…:</span> 
Raven has always wanted to become a nurse and began studying Anatomy at a fairly young age. Especially with her ""curse"" she can better understand ways to help aid those in pain--or make it worse.

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> ‘Does not play well with others’, ‘too many imaginary friends’, and ‘pathological liar’ among other observations or titles were given to the peculiar little girl. Therapists often accused her run-away mother as they are often to blame when the child shows any sign of unwarranted uniqueness. This situation made especially vulgar as Raven’s mother was a well-known psychic though years later everyone discovered the truth, and the Bonnay's became a laughing stock. Madam Celestine was in fact a fake and had been smuggling people’s hard earned money for ages. Before police could arrest her for fraud and theft she ditched her husband and ten year old daughter, remorseless. 
  
With learning that the family had no ties to the supernatural it was always a wonder how Raven managed to “contract” mediumship. A curse perhaps but something sinister soon sunk its fangs into her impressionable mind. Learning that her behavior and gifts were unacceptable Raven was instructed by her father to hide them best she could. Beckoning voices are difficult to ignore however, and their pleas were heart wrenching especially to a young girl who only wanted to help those in need. Misery loves company and some spirits are quite deceiving, and one fateful day changed everything. Soon after Raven could no longer ignore what she had become...</div>"

Hope you like him. He and people should be friends.

Name:  Orion Ellis
Gender: Male
Age: 17

Personality: Cool is probably the best word to describe Ellis. No necessarily in the positive social adjective, though it often translates to peoples' opinion. Regardless of how others take it, however, Ellis is always cool. He seems to act with ease regardless of circumstance, always centered, always certain. Even in his most passionate moments, Ellis projects a sense of unerring poise and commitment. Of course, this does not always translate to his internal disposition and humor. In fact, Ellis takes considerable and increasing pains to project the image that he is painless, while the vagaries of the Conveyance eat away at his sense of reality and self and cast him adrift into what he is growing to fear might be most accurately be described as insanity.

Appearance: Ellis is a typical youth in many respects, preoccupied with his own sense of style while still conforming to the predilections of a particular subculture, in his case, Ellis exemplifies the archetype of the black, nerdy, hipster, with hand me down jeans, ironic t-shirts, and an aloof sensibility. Here is him trying to look cool.
<img src=""https://worldofblackheroes.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/alexwilder1.jpg""/>

Tether: Ellis’ mind is impregnated with a fragment of the Conveyance, the, or at least a, language of creation. The single note of phoneme has opened his understanding to truths beyond the mundane banality of reality, enabling him to perceive the supernatural with clarity in spite of his lack of natural talent. It also causes him unpleasant headaches.

Ability: Ellis’ connection with the Conveyance has allowed, or perhaps more accurately, forced him to perceive the underlying language of reality, able to see the interconnected code of existence. Consequently, Ellis is privy to information about the world around him that he otherwise could not, or should not be able to know, both mundane and supernal.

Unfortunately, the ability to perceive this information, which slithers into his mind unbidden, presented as notions of symbols alien to all human language, strange colors that cannot be seen by the human eye, and other more esoteric media still, is almost impossible for Ellis’ to translate into any meaningful way. He may know that the old grocer at the locale supermarket puts him in the mind of a strange, vaguely goose shaped symbol and a shade of red that seems more emblematic of blood than the color of blood in the real world, but Ellis has no idea what any of it means. Ellis has begun to understand some of the eldritch information that bombards him, some repetition of forms that he has come to denote the concept of feelings of anger, the strange keening tones that seem to emanate from locked doors and windows, but practical use of most of this information eludes him.

Furthermore, the information presented to Ellis is distracting, his performance in school, on the practice field, and other areas has dropped as he tries to cope with the unbidden knowledge bombarding him at all time. If anything this interference is becoming more difficult for Ellis to cope with, a prospect that frightens him deeply.

Talents: In spite of his nerdy mein, Ellis is remarkably athletic. He enjoys skateboarding and soccer in particular, as well as his more extraordinary extracurriculars, and benefits from a certain degree of natural talent, all of which adds up to a degree of speed, strength, and stamina that exceeds the average lackadaisical teenager.

Ellis is well read, he enjoys his studies and has a deep fascination for the world around him. This plurality of interest, however, does not lend itself to intense focus upon a singular subject giving Ellis a broad, but sometimes shallow knowledge base. The only thing that Ellis is very well versed in is the occult legends, urban myths, and supernatural folklore of the mortal world. How accurate any of this information is, however, is suspect when presented to one privy to true supernatural perspectives.

Ellis has a very nice voice, an agreeable enough personality, and an inoffensive appearance. Ellis has found that most people seem to like him and trust what he has to say, willing to listen to him and take his side on a multitude of issues more often than he, frankly, thinks that they rightly should. Ellis is a terrible liar. Also he can play the double bass, cornet, and sing rather well.

Recent history: Ellis has always been a pretty normal kid, painfully so, in his opinion. His parents were always decent and divorced. His life was filled with the normal, subjectively spectacular experiences of most children. He never wanted for much nor was given any great advantage or luxury. The only thing about Ellis that was really atypical was his dissatisfaction with how typical his life seemed. Since as long as he could remember, Ellis has been fascinated with stories of the strange and the occult. Not particularly stories of fantasy, but rather, those tales, often dark, of where the supernatural ran abreast of mundane reality. Ghost stories, surrealist literature, paranormal conspiracies all fascinated a young Orion Ellis and that obsession continued long into the approach towards adulthood. His mother thought he would grow into a troubled teenager, painting his fingernails black, listening to angry music she didn’t understand, but he never did. His father worried that he might become a social outcast and unable to relate to his peers, but Ellis always got along alright. It wasn’t a fashion of lifestyle that Ellis was interested in, it was the purity of the ideas.

Ellis’ great grandfather always encouraged his interests, always finding some obscure tome of early american mythology, unpublished manuscript compilations of H.P. Lovecraft, curious little trinkets attached to some odd little traditions of Maine superstition, which he would give to Ellis when the family would annually visit. Ellis always loved visiting his grandfather. The old man was himself like the gifts he gave, old, mysterious, and just close enough to the uncanny that Ellis always had the sinking suspicion that the venerable ancient knew more than he would ever reveal. Almost a year ago, however, Ellis’ grandfather died unexpectedly, Ellis was heartbroken. Family came from all over North America for the funeral. Most came out of simple affection and familial obligation, though it didn’t hurt that Ellis’ grandfather was quite wealthy. This too was surprising, for as far as Ellis had ever known, the old man had lived alone in a small cabin in the northern reaches of Maine, almost anachronistic in it’s ausere and frugal accoutrements. But apparently the man owned a great deal of property, including vast stretches of the Maine wilderness. As the family worked out the will and details of dividing up the man’s possessions, Ellis found himself bequeathed a portion of the man’s property equal to that given to the other great grandchildren, but also a small package set aside shortly before the old man’s demise.

Ellis doesn’t remember much after that. He had opened the small, brown paper package in the bathroom of the hotel the family was staying at, while his parents socialized with the rest of the relations in the reception room rented for the wake. The package had been small, squarish, almost like a book, but it was heavier than a book, and he remembered thinking that he felt like more than one object, bound together tightly by the paper and the thin string it was tied together with. He had opened the package and then Ellis still cannot remember what happened after that. The large gathering of distant relations dispersed, Ellis and his parents drove home, they didn’t talk much. Ellis didn’t have the package anymore, or whatever was inside of it. He could not remember what had happened to the package. His parents never asked. He didn’t know what had been in the package. He felt like he didn’t know much of anything anymore. 
Three days after opening the package, the headaches started. Four days after that he started to see and hear and smell and taste and feel the Conveyance. It started slow at first, little flickers at the corners of his eyes, sub voce sounds he could only hear when he plugged his ears and concentrated, subtle flavors that made him wish unconsciously for a mint. But the sensations have grown in magnitude over the last several months. He went to a doctor for the headaches, the doctor posited a dietary imbalance. Ellis did not mention the other sensations. He hasn’t told anyone about them. He hoped they would go away. They have not. They have grown stronger. Ellis world is no longer mundane. He’s starting to wish it still was.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Piper Harrison

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Piper comes off as a relaxed, laidback girl who gets along with everyone, but in reality she is simply fake. Piper is a lost girl who has no idea where she is going, who she is, and where she fits in the world. She is constantly overcome with a depression over her seemingly useless existence. Insecure, she does not think she is worth anybody’s time and throws herself around, letting herself be used by anyone just for a moment of attention. She has had many bad relationships where she has been abused, used, and thrown away; maybe her insecurity was a consequence or the cause. After a bad near-death experience where her sister died, she realized how fragile human life is and how un-worth it is and she now has a careless attitude regarding her own life. Piper is an overall honest person and is horrible at lying; she believes that the truth is the best course of action.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span>Piper is around 5’6” and is extremely pale. She is not super skinny nor is she overweight, simply average. Her natural hair color is brown, but she dyes it a vibrant red. Her eyes a light blue and her lips are naturally pink. Her nose is her least attractive feature, resembling the beak of beak of a bird.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> After dying for six seconds and bonding with her sister’s spirit, she can now see the supernatural and is able to communicate with her sister’s ghost.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Piper is able to tell if someone is lying because she gets a tingly feeling in her gut when someone lies to her.
Talents: Piper has sharp senses other than her eyes: she can instantly know what a material is if she touches it, know what a smell is if it is strong enough, and can instantly know a food when she eats it. This only works if she has experience the smell/material/food before. She also has a talent for the violin

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> A few months ago, Piper and her older sister, Bo, were driving when they were hit by a drunk driver. Bo died, leaving the family heartbroken. Piper was close to death and her heart stopped for six seconds. In those six seconds, Piper communicated with Bo’s spirit and they formed a spiritual bond. Bo did not want to move on and clamped onto Piper’s spirit, officially haunting her.

After Piper’s heart started beating again, she went into a coma for three weeks. When she awoke and learned of Bo’s death, she figured out that everything she thought she dreamed while in a coma was real and she continues to see Bo to this day.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> People who see Morgan tend to think of him as an unfriendly guy, mainly due to his constant facial expression. He’s always serious, rarely cracking jokes unless the rare mood arises. Smiling is something he rarely will do; however, there have been times where he shows genuine affection. He will point out mistakes that others make, causing others to believe that he enjoys putting others down. The reason he actually does so is to help others learn from their mistakes, and improve themselves as a person. Of course, Morgan is also open to such reception, mainly relying on Ennis to point out his flaws and failures to help him grow as an individual. Morgan deeply cares for family and friends, and those he has known for a while he considers an extension of his actual family, checking up on these people periodically to see how they fare. 

When it comes to the supernatural, Morgan is well versed. His deep curiosity led him to study about it at a young age, along with the fact that his family is very involved with the supernatural. Any ghost story he was told as a kid he listened to with earnest, and any book he could get his hands on about legends and myths he would read fervently. His father would tell him about his supernatural occurrences, leaving Morgan to proclaim that he wanted to be just like dad someday. While he never had any first-hand experience in dealing with ghosts and demons, Morgan excitedly looked forward to the day that he can investigate the paranormal. Once he was informed by his father of what would be going on, he uncharacteristically exploded with excitement, something that those present, Ennis included, will attest to. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Morgan stands at 5’10. His light blonde hair is shoulder length. He leaves the front of his bangs trimmed neatly, so they do not obstruct his view. His dark blue eyes are always positioned in a way that show his seriousness, and give off the vibe that he isn’t someone you’d want to anger. His skin tone and complexion are both fair, and he has no signs of any blemishes or scars upon his body. On his left helix lays a simple, silver cuff earring. 

His body is toned and muscular, due to his workout regimen and training in his family’s martial arts for many years. The clothes he normally wears consist of a button-down shirt of any color, with the sleeves rolled up past his elbows. To compliment the shirt, he wears a black tie. For pants, Morgan wears black slacks with the legs rolled up to his mid-calf. A pair of comfortable black and white sneakers is worn on his feet. On his left wrist, he wears a black analog watch. 
Tether: Morgan is considered a natural born, as he is able to perceive the supernatural world without having to use objects infused with supernatural energy, or other means. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Morgan’s ability is electro kinesis; the manipulation of electricity. The extent of his power allows him to drain electricity from objects, and charge up electrical devices, if they require it. He can also discharge electricity to anything that he comes into direct contact with. He can control the voltage; however, it can only be as strong as a taser. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> Morgan is very well trained in his family’s style of martial arts. He would not call himself a master, as he continues to train when he is able to. His level of skill is below that of Ennis’s, something he freely admits. The two cousins spar quite often, with Morgan seldom being able to best Ennis. Martial arts are mainly taught to the family members because it is believed that it can teach one great discipline, and to be able to defend one’s self in case danger arises. 

He contains a vast knowledge of the paranormal world, due to his fervent study of the subject. His apartment contains many volumes on ghosts, demons, and various rites used to send these types of spirits to the afterlife. To this day, he continues to get his hands on any books that he has not yet read on the matter. 

As it is just he and Ennis living together, Morgan cooks for the two, and his chef skills are quite excellent. He learned from a young age how to cook from the various chefs his family hired, and his mother, who was a gifted cook as well. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> Due to the Bowers being involved heavily in the supernatural world, they decided to send someone to investigate the supernatural occurrences at Oakenheim. Morgan was selected by his father, the current head of the family, to be the one to investigate, along with his cousin, Ennis. It had been a week since they arrived in Oakenheim. 

-----------

Name: Ennis Bowers

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Personality: Ennis is described as a gentle and caring person. In some aspects, she is the exact opposite of her cousin. Where Morgan is quick to point out peoples mistakes, Ennis offers kind words, and encouragement. While she does know that Morgan is attempting to look out for others in his own way, she is well aware that that form of treatment is not for everyone. She is well liked by her peers, and is quick to make friends. She is normally seen with her cousin, which many view as an antagonistic person. Due to that, most tend to steer clear of her while she is with him. This does not bother her in the slightest, and she is quite used to the way how people view Morgan.

She deeply cares for family and friends, going as far as showing motherly affection towards others. She especially cares for Morgan, who she has been with since they were children. Ennis tends to mother him the most, and nag him about trivial things. While this mainly due to the fact that she deeply cherishes him, she also does it just to get a reaction out of him, due his dislike of her constant mothering. Despite the fact that it seems like Morgan relies on her a lot, she relies on him just as much, and the two share an unbreakable bond. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> She stands a little over 5’8, with fair skin and a great complexion. Her blonde hair stretches down to her plump rear. Ennis tends to straighten her hair every morning, and it is something she takes great pride in. On days where she is feeling lazy, or is lounging around at home, she’ll simply put her hair in a messy bun. Her gentle looking eyes are a light blue color. Others have told her that her natural beauty doesn’t call for her to wear make-up, but she occasionally enjoys wearing lipstick and a bit of eyeliner. Thinking contacts are an absolute bother; Ennis wears a pair of black half-frame glasses. 

Her body is toned, and shows muscle in all of the right places. She is described is having great curves, with a modest bust size to go along with it. Ennis takes great pride in her body, and goes through great lengths to maintain its appearance. As for her attire, she wears a three button blouse, with a ribbon tied around the collar. Her blouse is neatly tucked in her skirt, which reaches down to just above her knees. She wears a thin red sweater at almost all times. Black stockings adorn her legs, and she wears a pair of black leather shoes almost all the time. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> Ennis is a natural born, being able to perceive the paranormal without the assistance of an entity, or an item infused with supernatural energy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Ennis’s ability is retro-cognition; the ability to perceive past events. By simply walking into a room and focusing her energy, she is able to see what happened in the past. Ennis can project these images to those around her, allowing others to view what she sees. This power also works on humans, but only if the participant allows Ennis to reach out to their very soul. By using her ability on a person, she is able to view their past, and can even view memories that others have forgotten. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> Ennis, like her cousin Morgan, is trained in the Bowers family martial arts. Her level of skill is greater than that of Morgan’s. She constantly challenges Morgan to a sparring match, knowing that she will win a majority of the time just so she can smack him around. Martial arts are mainly taught to the family members because it is believed that it can teach one great discipline, and to be able to defend one’s self in case danger arises. 

Ennis is quite handy with technology. Her knowledge of computers is great, as she is able to repair them with ease, and use various functions on them. She is even adept at being able to repair cell phones, and can jailbreak, which is a term for modifying an operating system on a smart phone; with relative ease. Something she also enjoys is tinkering with her desktop and laptop to various degrees. 

Much like everyone in the Bowers family, Ennis is well educated in the supernatural. While it intrigues her, her interest in the subject is not as great as her cousin. Her studies were not as extensive as Morgan’s, and she really only knows of the basics off-hand. She knows about the basic rites used to send off spirits and demons. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent History:</span> Ennis was chosen, along with Morgan, to investigate the occurrences in Oakenheim. She was more than happy to accompany Morgan along, but she remains slightly peeved that she had to transfer out of her school, and leave her friends behind for the time being.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Cory Warner

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Cory is a typically a sanguine and enjoyable person, who is more than comfortable speaking his mind and getting along with strangers. Because of his outgoing nature, he has many social ties both in and out of school, and tends to get on well with anyone he can. Additionally, Cory can be described as a disciplined person, who devotes most of his hours to school work since breaking his leg, effectively ending his soccer career and hopes for a sports scholarship. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> The above image serves as a general reference to his style and physique, but I'll throw down some additional details here. Cory has unremarkable hazel eyes, and hair of a similar hue, which is buzzed close on the sides, with some length on the crown. He is 5'11, and somewhat muscular. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Tether:</span> Following the accident that shattered Cory's plans for further education, he lulled into depression, and for a short time, spoke to no one. It was during his months of recovery that Cory became aware of his ability, after weeks of doing little else but thinking to himself. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ability:</span> Cory has found that he has the ability to ""erase"" space and objects. Whatever the target of the ability is removed from existence, and the remainder (if there is any) appears as though it were cut smoothly with a razor sharp blade. At first the ability occurred without warning, leaving Cory's home tarnished with unexplainable holes and cuts. After months of attempting to understand his ability, Cory managed to lessen the frequency at which it set off, and as of a few weeks ago, as successfully directed the ability at a specific target. Additionally, Cory has found that he's unable to eliminate living objects/tissue, and any attempts to do so often result in a short lasting pain, but with no matter lost. From studying the negative space left in trees, Cory has deduced that he erases with a sphere around 10 inches in diameter. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Talents:</span> Cory is physically strong, visiting his local gym frequently despite no longer being able to run or perform athletically as he was in past. Aside from his strength, Cory is a pretty unremarkable person who is just getting by with his studies with the help of several private tutors. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Recent history:</span> In the past few months, Cory has spent more and more time in isolation, dedicating less time to maintaining his social status. While alone, Cory ""practises"" his ability, a practise that involves waving his arms and fingers at objects in an attempt to eliminate them from existence, or alternatively, focusing on preventing random ""deletions"". Thanks to his diligent practise, Cory hasn't accidently left a hole in anything for several months now, and has been able to target specific areas with his ability. He has thus far told no one about his ability, and often plays dumb when he does accidently delete space. Even with the burden of understanding his ability, Cory has maintained his attention to doing well at school, and taking care of his body, hoping that the situation will eventually resolve itself in time.</div>"

Also Ellis wants to start a band. Who wants to turn their supernatural talents to making music history? Max? Eh? Play a twelve-string base with telekinesis? 

Mary? Maybe you'll find out your super power is the ability to summon and play a magical drum set.

Jackson looks like he's got plenty of angst he could work out writing lyrics.

August could do sound tech, or play the ukulele, or just be a groupie, whatever, creative freedom, man.

Raven could...I don't know...enhance Jackson's mopier songs by making the audience feel the pain he instills in his lyrics.

August fits the role of Shaggy for comedic relief, Mary fits the role as the team's resident stoner, and Jackson also fits because Aphosis is basically a weird Scooby ghost thing. 

Cory and Oreo are probably our Freddys, with Everett and Maxwell vying for dickish leadership over them. 

Raven is totally our Daphne, because lolita tits. (Although, Maxwell is also kinda Daphne because he's rich)

Which leaves Kanoa as our sole Velma, which is fitting because she's like the only person that seems to have even a modicum of understanding as to what's going on.

Who's our Scrappy?</div>"

Eh, or in other ways, Orion's pretty cool with whatever.

On a tangential note, I find it sad that Oreo doesn't fit any of the Scooby gang better than he does. I mean he can rock an orange ascot, but it's too...I dunno...whitebread? Which might be racist to say.

Oh, I know, he could be a special guest like the Harlem Globetrotters.

Do you remember that one crossover episode they did with Johnny Bravo? And like, he and Velma ran into each other and they both lost their glasses and apparently Johnny literally can't see without his glasses. I think you see where I'm going with this.

Orion is obviously Red Herring, that ginger kid from the cult show, 'A Pup Named Scooby Doo,'

Gender:Male
Age:18
Personality: Danny is for the most part a sociable fellow, when he has time for it. When he has found himself in a conversation his bluntness and dry sense of humor can be polarizing. Pairing this with his tendency to ramble and spouting of strange factoids one wonders how it is he isn't ostracized by the student body. Perhaps it's his staunch work ethic. While he is usually jovial to some extent he has no sympathy for those who wallow in their own misery instead of pressing forward.   
Appearance: <img src=""http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/052/1/b/dick_grayson_civvies_2_by_deandraws-d3a2tyr.png""/>
 Standing at 6'3'' with black hair and pale blue eyes Danny tends to wear long sleeved shirts with the sleeves rolled up paired with v-necks and (patched) jeans with a comfortable pair of steel-toed work boots. He also has small scar over his right eyebrow.

 Tether: While Danny was born at 3:00 A.M. on Halloween any abnormalities didn't form until he was seven when Daniel and his mother were T-boned by a drunk driver that resulted in her death. 
 
 Ability:Probability Manipulation. Even after his tethering, Danny wasn't aware of his supernatural abilities chocking up things like being able to start a fire with damp wood or things breaking when he was frustrated as luck or coincidence. In a way he wasn't wrong. The more his emotions flare the more noticeable this ability becomes with bad moods hampering the environment or people around him (including himself) or benefiting it, while any control depends on how focused Danny is, usually only allowing him to do things that amount to mediocre party tricks.

Talents:
Criminology-Daniel's father has passed on much of the information that he has learned in his career as a detective and sheriff making sure Danny pays attention to detail, and not to make evidence match his theory.

Krav Maga: Before Danny had gained his growth spurt he had to learn how to defend himself. So he trained in a form that would make sure that no bully would come after him again

Parkour!: Retzev in its purest form, the acrobatics that Danny has learned first came from in the form of his attempts to flee the trouble he'd cause when he first arrived in Oakenheim but has been reformed and streamlined into efficient movement which helped him earn a place on the school's track&amp;field team. 
 
Recent history: It's hard to make friends when your dad is the sheriff. It's harder still when your dead mom's sister runs a new age bookstore that hands out free copies of The Communist Manifesto. It's harder still when you work as a barista at said bookstore. After the death of Daniel's mother, he and his father moved to his father's hometown of Oakenheim and soon went from big city detective to small town sheriff. While Daniel has had a tough time of things with a caring dad and a bizarre aunt, Danny has learned to deal with the pain. Recently he's been getting restless and wanting to leave this boring old town to someplace more interesting. However he may soon regret his wishes for more action in his life...</div>"

Is it correct of me to gather that August's obsession with 'fixing' things and 'making them better' probably stems from some past psychological trauma? The same kind that's make her unequipped to dealing with boredom and unable to handle long term relationships? 

Like, it seems that despite her power (or probably because of it), August prefers dealing with machines over people, but she recognizes that she needs people to live so she enters into relationships with them.

I figured Lucifer/Morning Star fits nicely into the pseudo history of the Wôbanakiak in the RP, since 'Wôbanakiak' literally means 'People of the Dawn' they'd have some fixation with supernatural figures able to embody that.

You're pretty sure you don't have any kind of plant allergy, but maybe you do. You should probably get tested, after all, your insurance is good right now, you really should be getting all your stuff checked out, make an appointment with the eye doctor, the dentist, see if you can get some refills on your prescriptions before they run out. Alright, that's what you'll do, you'll get yourself checked out. But it'll have to be tomorrow, since you already promised yourself to get your yard all cleaned up today, and you still have that box of old files you need to go through just sitting on the coffee table. You really need to get rid of all that clutter. No, no, don't worry about it now, just finish each task in front of you, otherwise you always feel so overwhelmed. Today is about taking care of all the external stuff cluttering your life. Tomorrow you can worry about all those internal, biological things. Oh, though, you know, you do have that early meeting tomorrow. Damn. You'll have to make those calls on your lunch break, you hate having to make calls on your lunch break, but they've really been cracking down on using work time for personal calls. Fascists. You really need to get out of this job. Things have really gone downhill since the new governor got elected. The benefits are good though, so it really is important to prioritize all those health things now, get what you can out of the man before you tell them to take this job and shove it. Alright, good. The sun is out, you're being productive, got all your ducks in a row. This really is going to be your year. The year you really take life by storm. Really get it by the horns. Like some kind of bull wrestling storm. Yeah.<br/><br/>That kind of vibe. You know what I mean?</div>"

They don't even need to be going after spirits, maybe Team A goes to research more about specific things, and half the time instead of introspective comments about fruitless searching through books before finally finding the proper one, they could be chatting and getting to know each other and learning about each other, developing a relationship, be it good, bad, awkward, sexually tense, calm and laid back, etc. While Team B goes to gather clues from another place and do the same thing. And these teams rotate often enough that everyone interacts with each other, not just the same few folks.<br/><br/>It would also help to keep anarchy from prevailing, I think it can sometimes be intimidating when two other characters start hitting it off via posts and you don't wanna feel like you're interrupting or jumping in uninvited.<br/><br/>My two cents.</div>"

Maybe we'll see mainstream vocaloid use as pop music moves further and further away from lyrical content and more ethereal, vapid female lyrics as we're seeing in the modern day-- but to be completely honest, music made on computers, with beats that might be lazily reselling the bast with that same POP fucking 4 FUCKING 4 TIME SIGNATURE AND THAT SAME BREAK DRUM fucking goddamn consumerist soulless mall drone made to ease the trials of living in a dystopia for the proles UGH. <br/><br/>Like I love production (El-P, Ariel Pink, J-Dilla, FKA Twigs, Madlib, Tokimonsta, etc. that's 10/10 production-- and I can appreciate the music without human vocals, but some work meant to it, I guess I might be a sheep for believing some of it is trying to portray some feeling besides *CONSUME*) it's one thing to put work into the creation of digital music that takes inspiration from the past (as music/art/existence does) but it's another to SOULLESSLY RESELL IT AND NOW COMPLETELY REMOVE THE *ONE* HUMAN ELEMENT IT WOULD HAVE POSSESSED. by replacing that voice with HATSUNE 'Have some fun with' MIKU<br/><br/>tl;dr I think vocaloid going mainstream might have negative connotations about the human condition as it relates to meaning intended behind music and art.<br/><br/>I don't know who cares<br/><br/>Also maybe you could call disCO DEAD IF GENRES OF MUSIC COULD DIE BUT THEY CANT DISCO WILL NEVER DIE SO LONG AS YOU CAN APPRECIATE THE MUSIC AND THE CULTURE BEHIND IT-- THAT WONT EVER STOP, <a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco_Demolition_Night"" rel=""nofollow"">YOU CAN'T KILL THE SOUL, YOU CAN'T KILL THE FUNK YOU CAN'T KILL THE MUSIC ITS OUR DEAD HOMIES SPEAKING THROUGH US MUSICALLY</a><br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/piercing-light"">@Piercing Light</a><br/>I can respect that<br/><br/><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/71342"">@71342</a><br/>YOU WOULDN'T KNOW FASHION IF KATE MOSS WAS YOUR SENSEI</div>"

Ultron took us away from the less than great plot in a way that, lets say, the elf guy from the second Thor movue failed to do. I think the fight scenes were freakin'amazing, and having taken a class in animation myself, I can't help but appreiciate all the hardwork that went into them. Favorite scene had to be Hulk vs Iron man, loved every second of the beautiful carnage.<br/><br/><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Spoiler Warning!!!"" type=""button"">Spoiler Warning!!!

You have to remember that these are movies descended from comics, and so storylines are different, the movie isn't engaging the whole universe like it could. It's essentially a bottle episode with decent character development (although Joss' writing can be grating at times) that mainly exists to bolster the plot lines to come; the creation of fucking sperg lord Vison, establishing Wakanda and Ulysses Claw-- FUCKING AMADEUS CHO'S MOM-- and some other stuff, like creating more tension between super heroes and the government, notice how Iron Patriot is War Machine again? Also Falcon looking for Winter Soldier because they have to keep him relevant somehow. The broken up Avengers is also setting up Ant Man which is going to be a disappointment, as well as Dr. Strange and Miss Marvel cough cough I mean Captain Marvel.<br/><br/>tl;dr, it's all a giant set up comic for more things to come-- with a lack of cinematic flow and a shit soundtrack, it was still a strong 6/10.<br/><br/>Tenish knows what's up tho, Fury Road was easily the 2nd best movie of the year,<br/><br/>right behind the Fallout 4 trailer<br/><br/></div>"

It's really sad that they have to make these new characters legacy ones, especially when it doesn't make any sense, like the female Thor for instance. There's plenty of room in Norse mythology for there to be a character, build her up as a reoccurring character in Thor's or whatever and then give her a line of her own. I mean for fucks sake she has a 'secret identity' and secret origin because they weren't trying to create a new and interesting character they were trying to get sales from a demographic that hates comics to begin with.<br/><br/>What was I saying?

He met Orion's mother Melissa Ellis after emigrating from Nigeria during the military coup of '93, fearing retaliation for his connections to the Shonekan regime. Melissa was a lawyer specialized in helping African refuge's find asylum in the US and abroad.<br/><br/>To this day, Orion has no idea what could have possessed them to tolerate each other long enough to produce spawn, though he supposes he is thankful that they did. They are still married, though they maintain different households and lately only communicate through Orion, who is otherwise free to spend his time at whatever home he likes. He generally prefers to stay at his mother's home, both for her company and decided lack thereof, seeing as she is often away on business. Orion's father on the other hand is almost always home, listening to conservative radio pundits and making disparaging remarks about immigrants. Presumable he is a business man of sorts and claims to own the lease to many of the commercial properties around town, but Orion has never seen him do anything that he could define as business, nor seen the lucrative profits of said venture in any of his father's lifestyle choices, who lives in a small apartment above a salon overlooking the old town square, eats frozen meals, and almost exclusively wears old, threadbare tank tops and bicycle shorts.<br/><br/>Orion's mother makes a decent living. She is good at her job, although advocacy is more rewarding in morality than money. She and Orion live comfortably middle class. She expects Orion to perform to his potential academically, do an unspecified but respectable amount of the household chores, supports his extra curriculars, and is a god damned wizard at making sure he performs above those expectations with little more than the occasional arched eyebrow and the use of his full name.<br/><br/>Orion has a younger sister. Her name is Jasmine. She is 9. She thinks that birds and her brother are the best things in the world.</div>"

Though nothing seemed out of place today things were about to change for better or worse for two individuals. Kodak, on this day, was chopping wood at the lumber mill like he normally did though today he used his dad's axe since the previous day Kodak had broken his and was waiting on getting his old one fixed or a new one entirely.</div>"
20535,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-07 15:39:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Elloria was, if nothing else, versatile. She had found many a thing to do up in the north, and for now that was working in a smithery. While this would have quickly filled her wallet in most circumstances, the inn she resided in ate up most of her funds. Not that the young woman minded, though. She still had a decent life.

""Oi, girl,"" the blacksmith hollered when Elloria arrived. ""Delivery."" Without removing her overcoat, Elloria went to the man. His skin was dark, like hers. He handed her an axe. ""Y' know where the lumba mill es? Bring this tha,"" he said when she nodded. ""'S fer a boy, Kodak, 'e brough' his in yesterday an' 'twas in foul shape. Tell 'im tha' 'tween this an' th' iron from 'is ol' axe, tha's a thr'-coin diffurnce.""

Elloria took the axe and nodded again. ""Shan't be long, Nurvan,"" she said. His accent was much thicker than hers. The girl turned and started for the lumber mill. The walk was longer than she would have thought, but pleasant. It was summer and warm for the north, but brisk compared to the summer heat she had grown accustomed to. Birds chirped songs as Elloria walked.

The lumber mill came to sight and Elloria spotted an individual chopping wood. She approached him. ""'Scuse me, are y' Kodak?""</div>"
20536,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-08 03:21:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kodak had just finished chopping his log when he heard his name be called from not to far away and turned to the woman calling it. ""T'is me, I am Kodak. You are?"" Kodak asked as he put his fathers axe over his shoulder and looked down at the woman. As Kodak pondered why the woman was here he saw that she hand his axe in her hands which he had given to the blacksmith to get fixed.</div>"
20537,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-08 07:44:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">If her purpose wasn't obvious already, Elloria held up the axe. She closed the last few steps between them to be at speaking distance. ""Nurvan said 'at your axe was too broken t' repair, but 'e'll take the iron from it. This one is still three coin more,"" she explained, then remembered herself and bowed. ""My apologies. I'm Elloria. Workin' with Nurvan for a little bit.""</div>"
20538,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-08 16:53:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Good to meet you Elloria, just wait here a moment and I'll go get the coin I owe Nurvan."" Kodak said as he began to walk back to a near by cabin right near the Lumber mill. It was Kodak's home and while it wasn't big or extravagant it was home for him and he found it to be quite cozy. He quickly ran inside and got three coins out of a pouch near his own bed and then brought it out to Elloria. ""Could ya thank Nurvan for me?"" Kodak said as he handed the coin to Elloria.</div>"
20539,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-08 20:38:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Of course,"" Elloria replied, taking the coins and slipping them into her pocket. She was just about to hand the axe over when a scream tore through the bird's singing. The young woman tightened her grip on the axe, and turned toward it. ""Wait, now, 'twill 'ave to wait,"" she said, flinging the words over her shoulder to Kodak. Then, still holding the axe, Elloria ran off in the direction of the scream.

She arrived to two men holding swords, and another man on a horse. It was obvious what was happening, and Elloria jumped right into the fray, swinging the axe and the nearer of the two bandits. The rider most have looked at her, or given her away somehow, because the bandit spun around and stopped her axe with his sword. She kicked at his knee, and caused him to stumble, only to spin around and block a blow from the other bandit.</div>"
20540,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-09 01:35:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kodak chased after Elloria as he followed to the sound of the commotion. As he saw the woman jump into the battle Kodak watched for a moment in shock. Kodak hadn't fought anything before unless you consider chopping wood fighting. He figured that he should leave this up to Elloria since she seemed to be holding her own well enough but he found a new found courage or stupidity well up in his stomach. Before he knew it, Kodak was rushing in to help Elloria with the fight against the bandits as he swung his fathers axe wildly at the fiends. The bandits easily dodged and retaliated getting some good cuts into Kodak which made Kodak more aware and stressed which helped him out as he dodged a few of the hits from the attackers.</div>"
20541,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-09 08:22:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kodak rushed in- which Elloria needed. She was no trained fighter, and especially ill-versed with an axe. The girl had defended herself, but Kodak attracted the attention of one. The young woman turned around and leaped at the one that she had kicked before. He had gotten back up, and the metal of their weapons met. Elloria tried to kick the bandit out again, but he was used to that trick, and instead sidestepped and tripped her. His sword aimed towards the ground, but Elloria rolled away and sprung up, greeting the man's chest with her fist. He stumbled back, breathless and spluttering.</div>"
20542,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-10 01:20:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As Kodak fought he began taking less and less hits though he was still taking quite a few and wouldn't be able to take it very much longer. Kodak figured he would need to finish this soon or else he would no doubt die here. As his struggle with the bandit continued he saw his chance as the bandit knocked Kodak's axe away with a skilful move of his blade Kodak rushed forward before the bandit could chop into his head. He talked the bandit with great force and proceeded to pin the bandit's arm and began hitting the bandit whom was struggling enough to cause some physical pain to Kodak.</div>"
20543,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-10 18:47:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With the bandit that she had been fighting dazed, Elloria spun around to see how Kodak was doing. She gasped- he was incredibly bloody and no longer held his axe, but he had managed to pin the bandit's arm. He still clung to his sword, though, and Elloria jumped over. She grabbed Kodak's axe while travelling the short distance, and lobbed it into the man's shoulder. Elloria gasped. She'd never cut a person before, and wasn't sure what to expect. The blade wedged itself into his shoulder with ease and held fast. She cursed, and felt sick as blood sputtered from the man's wound, but spun around to see the second bandit come to his feet. The girl swore again and approached the bandit, axe poised.</div>"
20544,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-11 04:54:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kodak was to enraged at the time to notice how morbid this was for him. If he had been a onlooker he probably would have called for someone to come help as there was a man with an axe in his shoulder being beaten by a madman but luckily he was instead in the heat of the fight, hoping it would end soon. As Kodak continued pummelling the now heavily bleeding bandit he realized the man would be very unlikely to get up from this so he brought his for up and stopped the bandit's hand, making him drop the sword he was holding to which Kodak picked it up and decided it would be better then a wood cutter's axe.</div>"
20545,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-12 04:57:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The fight had made Elloria aware and tireless, and she sprang towards the bandit. This felt good- her heart was pounding and her breath was ragged and only half remembered, but something about this made Elloria giddy. Not the gore, but this sensation. It tingled through her whole body, but in a good way. Perhaps not good enough, though, as the Bandit met her and swung his sword. He seemed to have a renewed vigor about him and Elloria found it tough to continually block with the axe she had. It was not designed for battle, and it was almost a wonder that it had lasted that long. Nuren's crafting was a fine one indeed, but Elloria could only wield it so well. She blocked and blocked, but the bandit started to push her back.</div>"
20546,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-12 05:31:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""YARRRGHH!"" Kodak yelled as he charged the bandit whom of which was attacking Elloria at the moment. He began takeing slash and stabs at the bandit with the hopes of taking some of the preassure off of Elloria. He also made a few blocks of his own but still many attacks connected with his skin.</div>"
20547,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-13 04:31:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">With a yell, Kodak charged the bandit. Elloria took the moment of confusion to breathe and stand steady before attacking. Luck was on her side, apparently, for Elloria struck hard with her axe and lodged it in the bandit's thigh. The man cried out and crumpled to the ground. Elloria was rather astounded by how his leg reacted- she couldn't take her eyes from the gore, but tore them away to look at Kodak. ""You're-"" she started, but was out of breath. She inhaled and tried again. ""You're injured. Y'need a healer,"" Elloria stated, concerned.</div>"
20548,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-14 04:42:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I'm... I'm fine... just a few scratches"" Kodak said holding his sore arm while dropping the sword he had previously been wielding. It seemed that in the midst of the fight the travellers whom of which were being held up had made their escape in the chaos of battle and were nowhere to be seen. ""Well that ended up better than I thought it would."" Kodak said staring down at the bandit that laid before them.</div>"
20549,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-15 06:48:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Scratches!"" Elloria scoffed. ""Y'll bleed out if y' don't get et checked, come now..."" Her voice trailed off as she considered the bandits. Elloria swore, loudly. ""Go t' town 'n' see a 'ealer, ah, I'll stay 'ere 'n' bring 'em t' th' jail..."" Distressed as she was, Elloria's accent grew thicker. She started mumbling in her native tongue, quietly. Tiredness and aching was setting in on her now, but there was still more to do.</div>"
20550,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-15 19:42:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">"" 're you sure you'll be able ta' get 'me there on your own?"" Kodak asked looking at Elloria then at the road leading to town. He was hurting pretty bad but he didn't think he would bleed out from it. As Kodak considered his option of going to town a figure dropped down from a tree and landed on the road a few feet away. The person was wearing a brown hooded cloak along with a mask covering the bottom of her face. ""That was quite a spectacle from you two, taking on those bandits alone with nothing but your fists and two woodcutters axe"" the woman said with a faint, unheard of accent.</div>"
20551,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-16 08:24:00,upscalerat,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Wh- o' course I can!"" Elloria huffed. ""How weak do you think I <span class=""bb-i"">am</span>?"" she asked, but the question was never answered. A woman fell like a leaf from a tree. Surprised, Elloria scanned the ground- there was a sword on the ground, but it was far. Not that it seemed to matter; the woman remarked as though she were impressed. Suspicious of the woman, Elloria didn't remove her eyes from the brown-clad figure. ""Aye,"" she answered, ""and quite a spectacle from you to sit in the trees and watch,"" she said, her own accent calming back down.</div>"
20552,Heroes of Old,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76334-heroes-of-old,['1x1'],2015-02-16 14:41:00,rocketrobie2,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The woman chuckled a bit then nodded ""I guess you could say that."" the woman said as she began to approach the two. ""Anyway enough of this squabbling I have a message to bring your way, I represent a group of like minded individuals whom of which liked what they saw here today. Sure you two didn't seem to be the most experienced with your weapons but you have sprit."" The woman said as she stopped a fe feet away from the duo. 
Kodak didn't know how to react, 'was this how the recruited bandits? Once the last one get killed off they try to recruit the next people they find?' Kodak thought to himself. ""What is this group you represent?"" Kodak asked aloud to the woman. ""It would be easier hopefully if I showed you."" she said as suddenly in a blast of purple light the woman disappeared and reappeared in the tree she had once been perched in. Kodak simply stared in awe. He had heard stories of warriors who wielded super natural powers to protect the innocent from harm but he had always thought they were just a legend.</div>"

Gender: Male
Name: Bart Gauge (Bartholemhew with the mask on)
Age: 26

Appearance: <a href=""http://www.rinkworks.com/rinkchat/botimages/hon/male/hon_h8_hy_hy_km_kqsqkretknfp.jpg"">http://www.rinkworks.com/rinkchat/botimages/hon/male/hon_h8_hy_hy_km_kqsqkretknfp.jpg</a>

Appearance Masked: The same as above but instead dressed in the attire of a Victorian gentleman, brandishing a cane with a sliver crow handle that conceals a blade.

Mask: <a href=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/4a/86/47/4a86472f5b11c6b955512afb84a6f2cc.jpg"">https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/4a/86/47/4a86472f5b11c6b955512afb84a6f2cc.jpg</a>

Abilities and Quirks of mask: 
The mask gives Bart traits that change him physically, mentally and give him abilities. The main exterior changes that are brought about by the mask are that his hair, both head and facial, turns black and the hair in his head flattens and slicks back. The other exterior change is that his pupils grow to take up all of his visible eye and turns them black, this is coupled with the eye actually expanding in size and taking up all the space of the mask's eye holes. An interesting none exterior change that happens to him is that he puts on a posh British accent and uses a high register of language, with this he adopts the mannerisms of an old-timey Victorian gentleman. Now that the physical changes have been described it's time to move on to the abilities the mask grants him. One of them is elegance with the sword, bringing back the dueling skills of an era long gone, the other much more sinister ability is to conjure a sense if panic into his enemies, though this skill could devastate someone mentally, it requires concentration that is difficult in the heat of battle.

Personality: 
He is a calm collected person, never seen publicly going to the extremes of emotion, always neutral or there about. He's not quick to judge people by their failures or problems, he's had more then his fair share of them. Humble, he is very humble, taking any praise with subdued thanks and never asks for what he knows he can't get.
Even though he us willing to listen to advice that's not saying he will act on it, if it has something to do with his lifestyle he gets really defensive. Doesn't like reflecting on the past, he is usually tight lipped about and doesn't ask others about theirs. He's not really a problem solver, more of a head scratcher, he might give useful bits and bobs sometimes but otherwise he's not the sharpest knife in the jugglers act, just an average Joe.
He is fairly approachable, as in he won't bite (well it depend on who the person is) but better not catch him in a bad mood.

Personality with mask:
With the mask on he is a completely different person, he becomes lively and eccentric but in the casually muted manor of an old-world gentleman. He becomes whitty and humorous, often more sociable then his original self, he never becomes angry, only on rare occasions and even when he is, it's not shouting and finger pointing, it's quiet brooding. He is also fond of drinking when wearing the mask, and if he gets completely hammered he starts to speak in a Scottish accent. However this is not a constant (well the drunk part is), the other souls in the mask have an effect on Bartholemhew.

Biography:
Bart found the mask in a gypsy flee market when he was on holiday in France, this was years ago though. When he purchased the mask, the gypsy woman that sold it to him told him to never wear it once the sun had set. He took this as the ramblings of an old woman and agreed because she was unwilling to sell it to him if he didn't, when he returned home he forgot about the mask and really didn't care, he hadn't payed much for it anyway. However one night he was frantically searching for it, he was heading to a masquerade party and need it, he looked where he left it last and found it missing, checking his bag it was not their either. Knowing he was not going to find the mask, he returned to his room to dress upon his Victorian outfit, he found the mask laying on top of the pile of clothes on his bed, frowning he reached for it and was about to put it on when he hesitated, he remembered that the gypsy woman had told him not to. Shrugging off the unsettling thought, he put it on and instantly saw the world differently, he felt more sure of himself, more confident (and looser in the joints to boot). He eventually never got to the party, he spent that first masked night, brawling with street ruffian and getting hammered in the bar. 

History of the mask: 
The mask has had a rather violent and dark history despite the bouncy and quaint demeanor of Batholemhew, it had witnessed the deaths of countless people and had learned from them, learned from the last wearer of the mask and imprinting their souls into it's velvet interior. It was crafted by a Venetian mask maker under rather strange circumstances, it was made to be a burial mask for a local lord who had died under magical auspices, the mask was enchanted and had wards bound to it to protect the corpse from further evil. When the authorities heard of the dark 'sorcery' of the mask maker they hung him in the streets outside his shop, with the mask staring out at him, from that point on the wards that were meant to protect the wearer turned foul. String after string of wearers wore it and each one had fallen victim to the curse on it and had their souls put on it, however to the run up of Barts ownership of the mask 3 important figures shaped it: A duelist who was stabbed in the neck after a mardigras party, the mask was then relayed to a Scottish cousin of his who was beaten to death in a bar brawl and finally it landed in the hands of a neice of tge scottsman, who had gifted it to her husband who was shot in the eye. The mask wad eventually crated up and sent to a buyer in France but the mask never made it to the collector, instead an empty box was received, the mask had been stollen by a gypsy sorceress and decursed, however all the souls that were imprinted into the mask were still there and age could do nothing to change who they were because they were already dead. She then sold it to Bart, 150 years after she had decursed it.</div>"

Abilities: Penn is a borderline prodigy and proved it during his time as a university teacher. 
Masked Abilities: Levitation - Penn does not call it flight, as he moves around with the absence of external forces, and doesn't push against anything.
Umbraspace/Hammerspace - Reaper can put himself and other objects into shadows, using them as gates to the void. He cannot put other humans or living beings into the void, as it lacks air.
Night vision
Limited Pyrokenesis, black flames.

Personality: 
Masked Personality: Reaper is a being of justice, and has little sense of mercy. He knows when he isn't enough to handle a situation, and isn't afraid to ask for help from other masked beings.
Biography: Pendleton Howl was born in Australia, but he and his parents moved to America so he could be raised in a small town in northern California to a family with a comfortable lifestyle. He was raised well, and was almost considered a child prodigy in sciences and mathematics. He excelled in just about all of his classes, and gained a full scholarship at the age of fifteen.

Years later, Penn decided to take a trip back to his little hometown, and stumbled on a tiny store next to the road he was traveling. Deciding to take a look at what was there, he encountered an interesting mask. He was a man of science, but he still loved the stories of mythology and the impossible, so he bought the reaper mask and put it on. In black flames that burned with a pain like no other, he transformed for the first time into his alias known as The reaper. He kept the mask a secret from everyone, including his own family. and only put it on again when he returned to his home near the college he now taught at as a professor.

He became The Reaper again, fighting crime and all of the normal superhero things, but in his down, Reaper way.

As the years went by, the thoughts and abilities of the reaper began to linger onto his normal body, eventually to the point where he could create small flames and hide in the shadows without the mask. By then, he had already found the institute. It was old and run down when he found it. No signs of human life anywhere. He repaired it, recreated the facility in the middle of nowhere. During this time, he studied the mask as much as he could, wanting to unlock the secrets that were within the mask. One by one, people with masks showed up at the institute, all with the same questions. He offered to help them, as long as they could help him with his research. It became a base of sorts for masked heroes and villains alike, even with their remarkably small numbers. They grew over time, but even the masked men and women were susceptible to an early fate out of Penn's hands.</div>"

Age: 18 (Since last week)   

Appearance: Alex stands at 4'6 with a shag of rust hair atop his head. He has an extremely pale complexion, dotted at the nose (which is small and round), cheeks and shoulders with freckles. He has deep brown eyes that have the warmth of a smoldering cook fire. Oddly long lashes add volume to his already large, round eyes and a healthy balance between fat and muscle gives him a look of extreme normality. He wears frumpy clothes such as heavy wool sweaters and jeans, with classic red sneakers. He is missing the bottom bit of his left earlobe.   

Masked appearance: When Alex transforms into his masked form, he really doesn't change all too much. His eyes seem to carry a new intensity and his shoulders broaden, but nothing extremely noticeable occurs.    

Mask: A solid white panel in an oval shape, it perfectly covers Murphy's face. It is solid white on the exterior, but is clear on the inside. Sound can travel through it as well as air. It doesn't really seem to get hot inside it, and is decently sturdy, and not uncomfortable.   

Mask abilities: When wearing his mask, Alex is able to simply push human limits to their gross extents. Able to suddenly become extremely flexible or durable he adapts consciously to a situation and can better deal with it. He is also able to understand things much more easily and retain masses of information.   Gender: Male   

Personality: Soft spoken and meek Alex is the kind of person who sleeps on the hard wood floor when you stay the night in his bed. He takes what comes to him and tries to have a positive outlook, blaming nobody but himself for misfortunes that come to him. He is non-confrontational and doesn't assume anybody is a bad person, but is rather ""having a bad day"" .  

Masked Personality: The same in most ways, though able to defend and stand up for themselves. He is more intense, and likely to take things upon himself he really doesn't need to.   

Biography: A normal kid, he lives with his mom dad and two younger sisters in his middle class home. He has a part-time job bagging groceries and is currently applying to go to college. He was gifted his mask last Friday on his birthday by his distant and weird uncle he barely knew. When he wore the thing, he was able to do things he couldn't before. While he never went out to solve a bank robbery, he has used it in secret to help strangers in small ways. He has been content with that until now. His curiosity getting the better of him, he and his friend have gone driving to wherever the mask is pulling Alex to go.

Name: Cassie Odveil Rose   

Age: 20  Appearance: Cassie stands at 5'5 with a head of pristine blond hair that is nearly white, and down to almost her waist. Her eyes are shocking blue and one of her most prominent features. She has a modest figure apart from her curvaceous hips. She has a very slight tan, and very well treated skin, with barely any mark on it's surface. Her nose is long and slightly hooked. She usually wears long sleeved shirts and jeans, with knee high brown boots. A modest person she doesn't really care much to wear makeup or stand out too much.   Gender: Female   

Personality: Outgoing and kind. She isn't the type to let anyone out of the fun, and she stands up for what she wants to say. Being an only child Cassie was lonely as a child, and has taken it upon herself to adopt friends as near siblings, becoming very close very quickly with people. She is quite trusting, and that can be a problem at times. She is confident, in herself and others, but she is still a realist, and will worry internally when a situation looks bleak.   

Biography: Another normal girl, she lived with her Mom and Dad in her uptown apartment. She now resides on campus of her college of choice, and works in a coffee shop down the block. She keeps in touch with most of her friends and is willing to go out of her way to meet up with them as often as possible. She is the one person Alex has shown the masks true uses to. She has a weekend off, and has graciously gone on a road trip with Alex, to hopefully find more about his enigma of a facial accessory.</div>"

<span class=""bb-u"">Age:</span> 17 
<span class=""bb-u"">Gender:</span> Female 
<span class=""bb-u"">Appearance</span>
<img src=""http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/153/d/f/TOMBOY_by_LIL_PINK.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-u""><a href=""http://images.forwallpaper.com/files/thumbs/preview/99/994576__dark-gas-mask_p.jpg"">Mask</a></span>
<span class=""bb-u""><a href=""http://s29.postimg.org/80n51jn45/Gas_mask.jpg"">Masked appearance:</a></span> 
Wearing the mask changes her physical appearance, but not in a way that changes her features, shape or hair color. Instead, it lets her appear roughly five to ten years older, like a person in their mid-twenties. This is in fact a precise depiction of the future Charlotte.


<span class=""bb-u"">Masked Abilities:</span>
While masked up, Charlie can see unhindered, disregarding both darkness and other non-solid sight-impeding substances like smoke or fire. Furthermore, the mask is constantly emitting smoke with every breath she takes. This smoke is usually odorless, but this may change during surges of emotion - for example, when agitated and furious, it may have a taste of gasoline, when holding a deep grudge it's similar to smoke of a fire and cause coughing. The amount of smoke emitted can be controlled to an extend. If intentionally cranked up, the smoke can fill small and medium sized rooms reasonably fast, blocking sight for everyone but Charlie. This emission can only be stopped entirely by removing the mask. The glass is mirrored but when using the mask to see through smoke or darkness, it may glow in a bright blue tone.
Wearing the mask enables Charlie to materialize three different items out of thin air:
A <a href=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/70/9mm_Yarygin_pistol_PYa_02.jpg"">MP-443 Grach</a>, a semi automatic 9mm russian firearm with a single, fully loaded magazine containing 17 bullets. The weapon can freely be retrieved from any place that is not within the field of view of another person - this means pockets work just as well as simply reaching around a corner, below a table, behind her back. When empty, she needs to either find physically existing ammunition in her environment, or throw the magazine/entire weapon away and not summon it within the next 12 hours. The weapon disappears after discarding it as soon as nobody is looking directly at it - not letting it out of ones eyes is a valid method to prevent Charlie from retrieving it.
A ""<a href=""http://www.messerforum.net/fotoalbum/data/749/4516_Kondor.jpg"">Kizlyar Condor-1</a>"" combat knife that is always in its sheath which is always strapped around her hip, the location of the sheath being behind her back and underneath her clothes. It disappears under the same circumstances as the pistol, but there can be two copies of this item at any given time.
A seemingly endless supply of <a href=""http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/E/A/EA-DUMMY-M18SMOKE_1_MARK.jpg"">standard issue smoke grenades</a> of different smoke colors. She can produce these from any pocket or from underneath any piece of clothing as if it had been there previously. Empty smoke grenade shells don't disappear until 12 hours after depleting their load, at which point the same rules apply as for the pistol or knife.
Lastly, the mask improves her perception, speeds up her reaction time and supplies her with the bodily strength her words often falsely advertise, though all of this well within the limits of a normal human being. It enables her to beat the tar out of an average joe if necessary, but a trained fighter will likely pose a serious problem, an athlete will outrun her and so on.

<span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span> 
Charlie is what you'd expect from a teenager. She's nosy, loud and doesn't shy away from confrontation, though her muscles do not support the claims her tongue often makes. She's not strong physically, a typical ""dog that barks, but has no bite"". She is often moody and doesn't fit into groups of people, as she always finds some kind of reason to provoke a quarrel, which eventually leads to the group expelling her. There aren't any people in her life she'd call true friends, only a number of superficial acquaintances, though she doesn't mind doing her own thing. Logically, she doesn't work well in teams but is generally bearable unless provoked. She's not quite as simple-minded as her loud demeanor implies, but that's one of the things she likes to keep secret from society, as being underestimated is generally the better of two evils in her opinion.

<span class=""bb-u"">Masked personality:</span> When wearing the mask, her personality doesn't change much. The only noticeable deviation is the fact that her ego and self-confidence are greatly amplified when wearing the mask. In this state, she seems to think of herself as untouchable, invincible - greatly overestimating herself, ignorant to her limits. This also leads to situations where she acts thoughtlessly on a whim, because right this second she feels like doing something irresponsible that may end up being beneficial. She's living a power phantasy when wearing the mask, and acts like it - which can be immensely more stressful to others than her unmasked personality.


<span class=""bb-u"">Bio:</span> 
Charlie's parents died in a plane crash when she was three years old, so she never really knew them. The first thing she remembers is living with her uncle, who is just as much of a scallywag as she is. Despite becoming her guardian after the parents passed away, he never bothered too much with her, and instead left her a lot more personal space than she would have needed to become a decent human being. That, and the wonders of puberty turned Charlie into the rebellious wastrel she is today. 
Nothing breathtakingly amazing happened in her life until that grandpa she never really liked passed away. During the excruciatingly boring mourning ceremony at his house, she stole away and hid in the attic, where she found something looking like a gas mask. Intrigued by the odd thing, she stole it and took it home only to later find out that something was definitely wrong with the thing - though it scared her at first, it began to feel very good. After what can only be described as a crusade of revenge against people who bullied her in school (broken bones only, no fatal casualties) nobody suspected the girl to be the masked culprit and she realized the potential of the mask - she could do anything she wants, nobody would recognize her behind the mirrorded glass or with the older looking body, and nobody could pursue her in the trail of smoke that followed in her wake. She achieved several things thus far, from small-scale theft to beating up a gang of criminals to appearing all over the incompetent media, and while a straight forward bank robbery has not happened yet, it definitely came into consideration lately.

<span class=""bb-u"">History of the mask:</span>
Nothing about the history of the mask is known to Charlotte, though for the sake of background information here's what was known to its previous owners.
There was once a lesser known urban legend about a russian soldier who lived during the 'russian campaign' in 1941. The man was forced to witness how nazis tortured his companions and friends into submission, to the point where they swore allegiance to the germans and promised to betray their fellow countrymen out of fear and torment. Seeing his former friends break like that damaged him beyond repair and was more gruesome than every conceivable form of torture. Caught by an inhuman rage, the man resisted his captors, successfully killing a group of fourteen soldiers covered by excessive exploitation of smoke grenades and ignoring the fatal wounds he suffered in the process. After all the germans had fallen, he turned on his former comrades without mercy or hesitation. It is said that he left after every single person at the scene had drawn their last breath, to succumb to his wounds in solitude, several days later. It is unknown if there is any truth to this tale, but if one was to believe the story, he wore the gas mask Charlotte now own that day, which supposedly traveled all over the world over the course of the last sixty years. Contradictive reports often speak of the mask appearing in several, distant places at once. For example, in the year 1982 it was supposedly seen in Afghanistan, but simultaneously a british soldier is said to have used it in the Falklands War, chronologically during the same time period. It is unclear if the mask has the ability to appear in two places at once, how it moves, how it picks its owners or what becomes of those who use it.
Ultimately, not a single one of the reports offers actual reliable proof, the only point of reference to connect the supposed sightings are the smoke and - if the reports go into such detail - use of the exact same firearm and combat knife. 
Nothing is known about where grandpa Pine acquired the mask, or if it was his to begin with. </div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Nina is a thin figure, standing at 5’7 with very little muscle or meat on her bones. She almost looks frail, though this is nowhere near the case. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked appearance:</span> When the mask is put on Nina’s appearance drastically changes. Her hair becomes a mess of platinum blonde curls, reaching her ribs instead of her shoulders. The pale blue of her eyes become a vibrant red, peeking out behind the monochrome mask. Her usually tan skin pales to an almost ivory tone.

Nina, while wearing the mask, usually wears black leather pants, silver tank-top, a leather jacket, and a pair of black combat boots. She often looks like she belongs in a black and white movie. She doesn’t always wear this; her usual outfit consists of clothes in monochrome hues.

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask abilities:</span>The mask itself has the ability to drive its wearer insane, or influence their darker side. 

The wearer though, if they can handle wearing it, becomes stronger, faster, and versed in ancient military tactics. Its true ability though is the ability to create weapons from shadows and to see the possible outcomes of encounters. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Without the mask no one would ever believe Nina could hurt anyone. She’s a very timid, sweet, girl who- before she owned the mask- disliked seeing anyone in pain and would become nauseous when she saw blood. The only thing both sides, with and without the mask, agree on is their love for music and art.

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Personality:</span> Once the mask is on Nina’s face everything changes. Her sweet nature turns dark and sour, becoming a crazed sadist with a split personality disorder. One moment she is a tough, violent, bloodthirsty individual and then the next she is a bubbly, mad hatter-like nut-job. She does know when not to attack people though, and usually only kills those who she deems unfit for this world. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Nina was raised by her mother for most of her life, her father having died when she was young. In truth she was there when he died, having been sitting in the seat next to him during the tragic car accident. 

When she was 19 Nina was studying abroad, a history major, and one day when she was in the city of Berlin she came across an old antique store. She went into the store and after scouring the many items she stumbled across the mask. It intruiged her, pulled her in, and against the clerks constant warnings and what she believed to be rumors, she bought it. Nina studied it, wanting to know the item’s history, and when she came across the stories of the previous owners she became curious. She put it on, laughing at the childishness, but when she finally removed it she knew it was true. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bit about the mask:</span> The mask is made of thick, ancient, polished steel; originally forged from the melted remains of a sword. Unknown to the woman who asked for it to be crafted the sword originally belonged to a madman, one who used the blade to murder hundreds… though most were on the battle field. The mask, once completed, was only worn once by its original owner. She wore it to a gala but went insane shortly after, screaming and haunted by visions of those the sword had killed. 

The mask continued to pass from owner to owner, driving the weak completely mad and pushing some to the violence it once dwelled in. Most of its owners died young, or rotted away in some sort of cell.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Isaiah Foster

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 28

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask Abilities:</span> The power of illusions, making those the wearer targets see, hear, smell, taste, or feel whatever they pleases. The mask seems to awaken the more negative aspects of his personality, and give it new life. Neither his physical condition nor appearance seems to have changed, and he need only have the mask in his possession for it to work.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Working as a photography teacher, he is often seen as the first person to go to for good, non-prejudiced advice. Still, he is a worrier of a man who often tries to hide his feeling of anxiety and doubt with humour and friendliness, and avoids thinking too deeply of his own personal problems by working on his photography and writing. This man seems thoughtful, compassionate, forgiving…and a darker side to him loathes how pitifully he feels himself to be, and mores so loathes the pity of others. Deep down, he knows himself a coward, and doesn't want to burden others, but is ultimately afraid of being abandoned. Even deeper down, since he first touched the mask, a tiny voice is telling him he doesn't even really need anyone in his world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Quick Biography:</span> Him and his young fraternal twin were both failed abortions, though unfortunately Isaiah was the only one coming out of it not quite healthy. Both being adopted by a doctor couple who took care of them for the longest time, both fully able to help him along in his youth with paraplegia and chronic pain. They wanted to treat both their new sons equally…which somehow ended up not having expectations of them at all. Twenty plus years later, somehow his healthy brother ends up being the irresponsible rehab dwelling drunk-druggie, leeching off of their adoptive parent’s saved money…while Isaiah became a well-known enough photographer and artist, able to support himself.

Finally proposing to his long-time girlfriend, it was a photography student of his that revealed evidence of his fiancé’s affair…with his brother. It sort of…broke the small confidence he had, as it seemed more and more like the world was rewarding his brother more for nothing, and that his wife to be was staying with him due to pity. Still, afraid of becoming alone by revealing what he knew, antagonising his own brother and fiancé with the truth…he decided to just pretend he didn’t know of any of this, and marry her anyway.

Any sweetness from her was becoming more and more obvious pity, to him, long stretches of time becoming more…their honeymoon was spent acting happy about being newlywed, and the sights of Venice. It was his wife that bought him the Jester mask, joking about how it was ‘fitting’. Fitting? How? Was she calling him a fool? A jester in medieval eras was mentally handicapped, not physically; she had to be calling him a fool for apparently not knowing about the affair. The mask in hand, he cast his first ever illusion on himself as he held it up to his face.</div>"

While we will go to the occasional party he is usually the quiet one in the corner. Not because he's overly shy, he just doesn't like a lot of attention. He can still be a goof ball though at what seems to be random times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Plays soccer, some outdoor living knowledge from Boy Scouts.

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked appearance</span>: Varies, but whenever they merge they initially become Robert or Koharu at random.

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Abilities</span>: Shapeshifting. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Personality</span>: The personality of the mask is heavily dependant on what they transform into. Taking the form of another human is usually fairly benign but sides more on the mischievous when unchecked. Turning into a monster may make them more aggressive. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask history</span>: One of what used to be many. The mask was originally created as a way to scare away or fight off attackers centuries ago. As time went on these masks dispersed and undoubtedly what spawned many myths and legends. What the wearer could turn into was dependant on their imagination. Some used this power to steal and destroy. Others used it as a tool to help and bring people together. Whatever the case those that possessed the masks were hunted and killed. Over the years most were destroyed entirely. The one that did survive only did so because it had been split in two. Each piece alone would not change the wearer, but once both found they would stop at nothing to become one again. One of those halves found it's way to Japan and carelessly tossed into a bin with other masks. The other was taken and locked away, passed down from generation to generation but never worn.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>: Robert and Koharu grew up completely unaware of one another. Nothing unusual or particularly Earth shattering went on in their lives. They were students, reality was supposed to smack them in the face afterwards. They lived on opposite ends of the world and likely would never have even met were it not for the mask. Their adventure started six months before. 

Robert was your average teen. He was almost done with high school and, as one would expect, couldn't wait for it to be over. A group of the kids from the school were planning to do something big when they graduated, a trip to Japan. Not one for the eccentric or travelling Rob turned it down outright.  The weekend rolled around and one of his friends invited him and a couple of other buddies over for a game night. As it got later and most of them crashed for the night it was just three left. Having played their fill of video games they get bored and start trying to find things to do. Apparently there was a bunch of old stuff from the friend's great grandfather in the garage. Might be something worth looking at in there. Rob actually found quite a few pieces that were interesting. Pieces of history here and there but also a lot of junk. One thing they found was a locked box. Fishing around for the key they got it opened and found the mask. The other two were instantly disappointed by the contents, a boring old mask. Who locks that kind of thing up? But Rob often found odd trinkets pretty interesting so he picked it up and placed it on his face briefly. ""Hey guys, when were you planning to go to Japan?""

Across the Pacific Saturday was only half over. Koharu was out and about with her mom and a friend. They planned to pick out some clothes for the season and had already gotten most of that out of the way. They stopped an had lunch before moving on. Now they were just killing some time and the girls wanted to see the little knick knacks that were at the nearby shops. A lot of novelty items. Things you talk about but never buy because you don't really need them. Happening across the bin of masks they began to pick up various ones and act out what they were or ask the other what they thought it looked like. It was all just fun and games. Having gotten to the point of just grabbing a mask and throwing it on Koharu snatched the half piece and put it on. It only took a second for her to realize it looked broken and she glanced at the bin for the other half. It wasn't there but now for some reason she thought the one in her hand was pretty neat. With her own money she purchased it and brought it home.

They had put the halves on at the same time and from that moment they were fated to meet. Working it's will through them Koharu kept the mask and Robert brought the rest with him on the trip. Neither had put on the mask since, but five days after Rob's arrival they both absent mindedly took it with them. Koharu made a short trip to the city Rob was at for some errands. Coming ever closed together the two probably passed each other multiple times before the moment finally arrived. It was getting late, somehow they had lost track of time. Heading for the subway system in a rush they ran into each other as Rob rounded a corner. Koharu's bad dropped to the ground and the contents spilled out. ""Oh god. I'm sorry. Are you alright?"" Rob might as well have been speaking Greek because the girl didn't seem to understand him, or at least not very well. Finding himself at fault Rob began to help pick things up. He spotted the mask and was about to reach for it when Koharu snatched it up and held it close. He recognized it and without saying a word pulled out the other half and held it out. By the looks of the pieces they appeared to fit and they put them together. The mask fused together to become one and likewise Rob and Koharu fused together. For this first time they took Roberts form  Both minds were still independent but working together to control the one body. Obviously both freaked out and reached up where the mask would be. Removing it they split back apart and each held a half again. Needless to say they both took off away from each other but there was no way they were going to be apart for long.</div>"
20573,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-11 03:41:00,pyroman,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Another day, another unsolved mystery about the origins of the masks and the importance of the location  in some random field in Nevada that was turned into what was now known as the facility at least twenty-something years ago which was found empty by Pendleton Howl and reconstructed to be a personal workplace, but later turned into a meeting place for others with masks that also had unknown origins, and no dollar.

Pendleton had been working hard for the past week. As always, he kept his mask on a small stand in his lab, just a few feet away from his main desk where he kept all of his notes and records. Like the rest of the facility, his lab was futuristic in a sense, plain, simple, but had so much more room to expand. He had been fortunate enough to not have the feds hound him for his mask and findings, and the reason the Facility was as high tech as it was, was because of the government, who had given him the money and the privacy that he needed to continue his studies on the masks, so as long as he would report in with anything new regularly.

sleeping peacefully, he was woken by a rather loud guitar riff that came from his radio, causing the man to jump out of his chair and hit the ground. He always loved having ambient noise playing while he worked, helped others with their mask abilities, or pretty much anything. He didn't remember having it playing so loudly, but apparently, he did, as only a select few amount of people had 24/7 access to his personal lab. With a groan, he got up from the floor and dusted himself off. Even though he was going to head back to his room, which was separate from his lab, he should still be clean in the event that others would be awake as well.

Penn returned to his room and got prepared for the day. It took a bit longer than he would have liked due to drowsiness, but it was still relatively early in the day. He left his room and wandered the halls, meandering over to the kitchens to make something to eat.

Unlike an academy or school, nobody was employed to make food. You cooked for yourself, or anyone else you wanted to, and nobody was in charge of it. The kitchen was quite large, and had something for everyone at every time.

As he walked through the halls, he passed by several halls for the living quarters, and a few for training and relaxing. He knew he could have used his mask to easily get to the kitchen, but he had begun to use the mask less and less. He knew that the effects of the mask were transfering over to him more and more after each use, but what he was worried about was the mentality of the Reaper that he became. He could already use some of the reaper powers on his own, but to a useless extent, so he just decided to walk around the facility instead.

As he reached the kitchen, the doors opened for him as they usually did, and he prepared himself a simple breakfast to get himself going until lunch. He wasn't overly hungry, but he knew that he could eat a fair deal if he wanted to. Once he was done cooking, he put everything he used away and walked to the gathering room, a multipurpose room of sorts that was usually used for socializing when a meeting wasn't going on. There were several tables and seats to take in the gathering room, organized to outline a large circle in the middle of the room. While normally it was just an empty space, it could rise to become a platform for different uses.

Penn took a seat by himself like he usually did near one of the doors that led to other areas of the Facility, and ate his breakfast quietly as he watched the people who were already awake.</div>"

Bartholemhew strolled through the desert as if it was a shaded promenade, walking cane in hand and backpack slung on, though he was half supernatural the desert would still kill him without water and food. He had set out two weeks ago on foot, following a gut intuition that he was meant to go where he was going, often he chatted with Bart as he took the back seat in their shared brain, talking about the 1800s and things like the first time he saw an automobile. However a few days ago the pair that inhabited the same body fell quiet as they settled into the journey, keeping good pace to arrive at where ever the hell they were going. Soon the wind died down and the sun was blazing through the dying dust, Bartholemhew took has jacket off and slung it over his shoulder, rather having one less layer then an extra one, underneath he was wearing his suit-vest and gray shirt with a black tie.

She felt drawn to a location she knew she's never been. She bought a map of the country, she spread it out on a table in the penthouse suite she was staying in. She closed her eyes and let the feeling lead her hands. She waved her hands above the map, she started on the coasts and moved her way inward. Once she found the approximate location she bought a state map of the area to further narrow it down. She repeated the process and found the location was in the middle of a dessert. ""No way in Tartarus am I walking. Good thing I took up skydiving for that one music video."" She had her assistant file a flight plan so she could take her private jet to take her close and once up in the air she had her assistant schedule a skydiving trip for the both of them.</div>"

Its tires digging up a fountain of dry rain for everyone who happened to be unfortunate enough to stand behind the vehicle - though at this speed that was somewhat unlikely. The machine plowed through the landscape at an impressive speed, hardly having any difficulties with dunes or the likes, and though maintaining a straight direction was everything but easy, the driver seemingly had the time of her life. The young woman wearing a gas mask had no drivers license, nor any experience at driving anything whatsoever, but somehow she found piloting the stolen ATV quite intuitive. Suspiciously intuitive. She had no doubt this had to do with the mask as well, but it mattered not when a 'Woooo!' barely overpowered the noisy motor, muffled by the gas mask. She had no idea where this was going, or what to do when the howling monstrosity she had tamed ran out of fuel. The moment was simply to enjoyable to care!</div>"

Nina’s tired mind didn’t recognize her surroundings, though a part of her deep down inside knew exactly where she was. A huff of air escaped her lips, the brunette turning over in the unfamiliar bed only to come face to face, metaphorically, with the most likely suspect for her new surroundings. Sitting on the pillow beside her, the item turned over, was the mask. It must have come off in her sleep… The woman sat up slowly before picking up the mask, her fingers noting the chill that overwhelmed her as she did so.

“What did you get me into now?” she questions aloud. Nina hoped the mask would remind her, as it had done thousands of times before in what could be a similar situation. Icy fingers seemed to curl around her brain, awakening thoughts and memories that the mask had suppressed. Then, leaving the young woman as quickly as it had come, the mask released her. 

Oh, right. Nina had recently felt the need to find something, at least the side of her attached to the mask had. For the past month the woman had not once removed the item, it wouldn’t let her. She had searched, coming up with nothing to show for this ‘quest’… until last night. Nina had finally found it, a small shack in the middle of nowhere. Deep under the run down building though was a facility full of people, people who all had masks of their own. 

The woman sighed, standing quickly and walking over to her measly bag of supplies. Drawing out a fresh set of clothes and her hygienic necessities Nina readied herself for the day. Maybe afterwards she’d go explore this new place…</div>"

The first time he had used his power on someone, other than himself, was on a student during a beach trip. With the small amount of boardwalk bringing him close enough to see the edge where water ebbed and flowed over sand, as his more sand and surf wheelchair had gone into a bad state of disrepair from disuse…the photography instructor ended up settling down beside the last student left as the others had gone off to take photos. Too blessed was he, having the best behaved class.

After an hour under the hot sun, one of the teens finally got back to him, and more specifically...the water cooler, with bottles of water. Such an impulse it was, with the mask tucked into his bag latched onto his wheelchair, and a bottle of dry beach sand given to him by one o the female students. The illusion in place, even he saw the crystal clear bottle of cool water go from his hand into the teen boy’s…and yet he felt his stomach drop as the youth removed the top and tilted his head back, even when the illusion kept with the flowing clear water that looked too delicious in this heat.

The teen wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, screwing the cap on…there was something off in his gut feeling, before he finally noticed the wheelchair bound teacher visibly blanched with a look of what could have been guilt...and horror…upon his face, “Hey, Mr Foster, you alright?” As the illusion ended, sand poured out from the boy’s mouth as he spoke.

“I’m sorry, wrong bottle.”

-----

That incident had been explained as a combination of the youth suffering from some mild heat stroke, which would explain the carelessness and just straight up drinking a good portion of a bottle of sand. The teen recovered, nobody was charged as it had been clearly a series of accidents, but Isaiah Foster never forgot…as easy as willing it, a person could gulp down a glass of sand like it was the sweetest flowing, lightest juice upon their tongue.

“Sir, are you feeling alright?”

Being brought out of his stupor, he would have jumped slightly in his seat if he could. Turning and peering up at the older waitress looking at his with some concern to her expression, he chuckled and smiled easily at her, taking note of her nametag just at eye level, “Sorry, <span class=""bb-i"">Gertrude</span>, I must still have been half asleep.”

Isaiah couldn't help but be reminded of the nurses typical of hospitals, looking at Gertrude’s expression change slightly…there was still <span class=""bb-i"">pity</span>, but no more than he expected, and favourably less so, even. “You travelling?” Isaiah could really only give a truthful nod to his inquiry, “If you're tired, you must be driving an awful lot, where you heading?”

Honestly, he didn't know. Heck, he didn't even know why he had just felt the urge to get on up and out here, though jokingly he thought to himself, <span class=""bb-i"">‘Early midlife crisis, perhaps?’</span> Maybe a restlessness due to routine…which, in actuality, wasn't something he tended to have at all in life. As smooth as Isaiah’s life seemed to far, as face value, he really wasn't a planner. Still, he had to give some sort of lie, so he didn't sound like he was just going to roll off and disappear from the world.

So, he gave the waitress the same answer he gave his wife, like he was the one cheating and had to hide what he planned on doing…

“A colleague and I are getting together to work on photography project. Now…hmmm, can you tell me a little bit about this breakfast special?”</div>"

""Out here? What are we doing in America?"" Koharu asked. It was a fair question. Since their first encounter involving the whole mask they hadn't left Japan. Both their lives had been flipped head over heels ever since that moment. Though it could be debated if they had individual lives anymore. All the events leading up to this point were hard to believe.

---

Whatever happened that night six months ago scared the crap out of both participants. Going back to their respective homes they didn't talk to a soul. What would one even say to explain it? Either way the event was exhausting and sleep quickly overtook them. Bizarre dreams awaited them until they woke the next morning. Robert's part was done, he had crossed an ocean to meet his other half. There was no turning back for him. The mask had more work to do with Koharu though. Waking with a start she looked around slightly panicked. Somehow she had the sense that she had been somewhere else. Noticing the mask she grabbed it and went to throw it away but couldn't bring herself to go through with it. Shoving it in a drawer she quickly got ready and left. No way did she want near the thing. It was possessed or something. 

Being at home was still too close. Calling a friend she arranged to spend the day with her. Good, this should be fine. Imagine her dismay when their destination was the area that she had run into the foreigner. After attempting to dissuade her friend with poor excuses failed she gave up and went for the ride. It was a big place. How likely would it be that she would see him again. He was probably just some tourist passing through. It could have even have been a bad dream or something. Thinking how ridiculous she sounded to herself she glanced outside the car and nearly had a heart attack when they passed by Robert. That was not the last time either. Throughout the day she somehow kept nearly running into him. What he stalking her? He appeared rather oblivious to her presence each time. Being slightly superstitious she tried to think of anything else that might have been a sign or something. This went on most of the day and when it finally came time to go home she wasn't as afraid of the mask as she was of that boy.

Even so she didn't touch the mask for several days. Further trips into town were uneventful and she didn't see Robert again. By now she was feeling rather silly for having worried about such things. Feeling a little more confident that she'd let her imagination run away she retrieved the mask again. Looking it over it just looked like a regular mask. Putting it up to her face a sense of dread filled her. She had missed her chance to get to know who that was. All those opportunities were signs. All at once she needed to find him. 

Having both under control made leading them to each other easy. Without even really thinking about it the two united the mask and became one again. Even though it could not keep them fused together forever the mask made sure that they were as often as it could. Unable to resist the mask's will initially they would shapeshift into animals or other people and cause mischief and confusion in the town. This obviously meant that Robert stayed in Japan, much to his parents dismay and despite their objections. On Koharu's end her father saw the two together and gave her a long lecture about fraternizing with foreigners. Even though the mask had control of them for the most part when they were fused they could still converse. It took time for each to learn the other's language but when you have a near telepathic link it made short work of that barrier. As they grew closer they also grew stronger. Eventually the found they could gain some control back when they worked together. Finally losing out they regained control but the damage had been done. Use of the mask's power felt more natural to them both and even when split they wouldn't part from each other's company unless necessary. 

From that point shapeshifting became a normal occurrence and even when the effects lingered it was not much of a bother. That was until they put the mask on and felt a new draw. The mask had brought them together, perhaps where it led them now would prove to be just as good. Leaving everything but the basics behind they set off to find where it led them.

---

And that is how they found themselves in front of this old looking shack and the questions began. ""What is this? Is anyone inside? Are we supposed to live here?"" By now it was sometimes hard for them to make out their individual thoughts. If they ran together that was alright. It wasn't often they disagreed. If anything they were more alike than ever. Even subtle things would occasionally make an appearance like when Koharu would lift her hand to adjust the glasses she didn't have. Speaking of Koharu, they were currently using her form.

Entering the shack didn't quell the confusion. They made their way down into the unknown. Anxiously awaiting what new thing the mask had in store for them.</div>"

It was pretty much a phone in all aspects, but one of his own design, and one of a kind. It rang and vibrated as the sensors outside picked up activity, and the scientist walked back to his lab to grab his mask.

As he walked through the halls, he passed by the room of one Nina Simone. She had come to the Facility in her masked form not too long ago, and as always, he introduced himself to her and allowed the mask wearer in. Deciding to stop at her room, he knocked on the door and waited a moment before opening it with a ""Hello?"" He didn't walk in, but instead peaked his head inside and looked around briefly. 

""You came here with your mask on, and it's usually fifty fifty if the wearers remember what happens."" He told her, still unsure if she was listening. ""Well anyways, My name is Pendleton Howl, and I'm the one running this place. It's good to have another addition here, so I'll be going now."" Pendleton shut the door and began to walk again, hoping that he didn't interrupt anything by suddenly coming in. If he had the time, he would have just waited until she invited him in, if she did at all, but he needed to make sure those people over ground weren't drying from the lack of life.

He made his way back to his lab and put his mask on, black flames encasing his body as if it were a cocoon. A moment later, the flames dispersed, and a tall figure in black emerge from where Penn once was. The only reason his room was taller than most was because the Reaper's form was easily larger than six feet in height. In an instant, the cloaked figure disappeared into the shadows.

In another moment, the Reaper appeared overground through a small shadow in the shack. He could feel a presence making its way down, but whoever was down there would be surprised to find that it would simply be a dead-end without Penn's authorization. Instead of going down, the Reaper walked out into the open, awaiting the others nearby to get closer to the shack. He stood tall, scythe in hand, and waited patiently.</div>"

There was nothing else to do so she began to meditate. The pilot on the other hand was getting frustrated no jump had ever taken this long and he can't for the life of him figure out why he let it go so long. Eventually Dite announced it was time. Kimiko grabbed her bag. Dite was the first to jump out of the plane, Dite being a risk taker waited until it was almost to late to pull the ripcord. Kimiko jumped and screamed in fear until she pulled the ripcord at the earliest possible moment.

Dite and Kimiko landed behind the shack. Kimiko really wanted to question Dite's choice of landing spots, but her mistress was always right. Kimiko only had one question. ""How are we supposed to get back to civilization? We have no water, no transpo, and it's goddess knows how many days travel to the nearest neighbor."" Dite always the optimistic one. ""We'll figure it out. Later."" Dite walked around the corner looking for an entrance. ""Look Charon is here. Char baby long time no see. You finally get tired of ferrying the dead on the River Styx?"" Kimiko saw the tall robed creature and freaked out. Kimiko passed out. Dite turned to introduce Kimiki to Charon. ""Poor thing.

She knew they there were several types of masks out there, in all sorts of different pieces of headgear, but he enjoyed seeing just a mask every once and a while. If his face could have been seen, Dite would have taken notice of the raised eyebrow that Penn had on his face. He knew of Charon, the ferryman of the dead, and he supposed that it's what he could be, as a reaper in a black cloak is rather synonymous and well known.

Normally, he was opposed to letting non-mask users into the Facility, but he was sure that the wreathed woman would find some way to get her in. The Reaper nodded and motioned for them to continue onward. ""There are others making their way into the waiting room."" His voice resonated with power. He then moved his free hand over to his face to remove the mask. Once again, he was cloaked in black flames before returning to his normal form, the mask in his hands as he stood there.

""Penn Howl."" He introduced himself. ""There seem to be some others on their way here, so just head on down into the waiting room and wait until the doors open. I'll explain more when we get past that.""</div>"

Dite waved her hand as if wiping away the subject. ""Let's go check the inside of this facility Kimiko. Let's hope the inside looks better than the outside, if not I am going to be extremely dissappointed."" Kimiko recognized the tone in Dite's voice. It was extremely subtle, one would have to spend quite a lot of time with Dite to recognize the difference. Dite issued a threat.

Like always Kimiko went in first. When it was determined to be safe she called for Dite. Dite inspected the inside. ""Much better than the outside, that isn't saying much."" She looked for this waiting room. ""Char baby where is this waiting room?""</div>"

However, that all changed when Penn took out his phone and pressed a button. 

For anyone in the waiting room underground, it didn't look like much. The walls and floors were clean, but there was only a single light that dimly lit up the room. When Penn pressed the button, the walls changed from their stone grey into bright white octagonal panels, with lights in the open spaces of the panels. Everything in the room suddenly became much better because of a single button. The room was now much brighter, and appeared much cleaner than before, and before the people in the waiting room could get settled into the change, the wall across from the stairwell that led to the waiting room began to disappear, panel by panel to show an elevator with it's doors open. Of course there were other ways to get into the facility, but Penn enjoyed having it done a certain way whenever new people came to the facility.

If they were to take the elevator down now, they's find that once they reached their destination, the facility would still be relatively quiet. It was still somewhat early in the morning, and only so many people would be awake. Despite this, the Facility would be as hi-tech and clean as usual. The white octagonal panels were all over the place, a rather odd design choice from Penn, but he stuck to it.

Pendleton stayed above ground, waiting patiently for the rest of the newcomers. They couldn't be far away, and he put his mask back on to take the form of the Reaper once more.</div>"

Not knowing where to go was one thing, driving through the middle of a desolate landscape with preciously little water and food was another...and the lack of gas didn't make it any better. But she kept going. Not like she had much of a choice at this point, it didn't require a genius or a higher degree in math to understand that she couldn't return the way she came. 

After hours and hours of driving through the desert, Charlotte finally reached the destination of her uncertain journey - a wooden shed came into view. The surprised '<span class=""bb-i"">Woah.</span>' she let loose was certainly not because of the building, but rather directed at the person standing in front of it. Upon her arrival, she was still wearing the hooded jacket that shielded her from most of the nightly cold of the desert, together with fairly worn out pants and heavy boots. A bag full of basic belongings was strapped to the ATV. She stalled the motor and jumped off the vehicle without waiting for it to fully stop, roughly when the eerie figure in front of the building was close enough to hear her voice without excessive shouting. As the ATV slowly came to a halt, she produced a pistol from behind her back and carefully approached Pendleton, aiming down in front of her.

""<span class=""bb-i"">Shit, I always thought the gates of hell would be more...opulent. The bouncer is just as I imagined, though.</span>"", she proclaimed jokingly half to herself, half to the grim reaper in front of her, waiting for what she presumed to be 'death' to react. Her mind racing to make sense of this scenery, trying to comprehend what this place was and why the mask directed her to this run-down house.</div>"

People began falling out of the sky and spindly person on some kind of 4 wheeled motorcycle rushed through the desert a few hundred yards away from Bartholomew. Watching all this go by with a blank expression, he kept walking towards the shack, his feet making light tapping sounds on the dried out lakebed that was the desert. Soon, after an hour of further walking (things in the desert are further then they appear), the shack was mere yards away, however he found that he was approaching it from behind. Before he started wrapping around the dilapidated structure, the four wheeled vehicle he spotted in the distance prior to his arrival coasted past him at a slow pace before slowing to a halt; soon he heard the semi-distant sound of a woman. 

Leaning his head around the corner of the structure, him and all the other long dead souls in the mask to a combined shit. Death, the creature that they thought they were safe from in the mask was only a few yards away.

‘HIDE THE MASK!’ yelled the combined trapped souls and quickly, without a comment Bartholomew did so, clearly petrified by the presence of death. Slipping the mask back into his bag Bart felt Bartholomew slip away from him and relinquish command, however he still felt some of bart inside him, like residue at the bottom of a coffee pot; he felt this way because the mask less features of Bartholomew were still on his face, the wide black beady eyes and the smoothed black hair, but slowly strand by strand his hair turned blonde again and muscle by muscle, his irises reappeared and his eyes shrunk.</div>"

He observed the woman with the gas mask as she approached, and could feel the presence of several trapped souls. Being the Grim Reaper, he had extra senses like that. Suddenly, the trapped souls disappeared from his radar, He could no longer feel their presence, but just one soul taking their place. 

He didn't move at the sight of her firearm. The bullets wouldn't pass through him, but they would hardly be an effective tool to slay him. He was the Reaper, a god in his own right that took souls away from the land of the living.

""Your mask."" He spoke suddenly to the woman, his free hand pointing at her face. ""Does it change you? Bind you with another? Are you more than you were without it?"" While sandstorms were somewhat common, there hadn't been one in the area in quite some time, and the mask could have just been an accessory. She could have just wandered to the shack. They were all possible. ""Remove your mask."" He told her. Penn wanted for it to sounds like a request than an order, but the Reaper is hardly ever wavering. 

He then pointed with his scythe in the direction of the other being near him, the one that used to be the collective form of several souls. ""Your mask is unique."" he spoke as powerfully as ever. ""Go inside, more will be explained shortly.""</div>"

Now you choose to be silent? Just a few months ago I couldn't get you to s-"" Nina cut off her sentence when there was a knock at the door. The woman's blue eyes shifted to the slightly familiar figure who peered in. So that was the Pendleton Howl <span class=""bb-i"">it</span> had mentioned, one of the few details that had been explained to her. He was quite right though, her memory wasn't completely back on the matter, she only remembered getting here, meeting the man standing in the doorway, and the fact that their were more people in her situation down here. 

Just as quick as he arrived he disappeared back into the hall, the door closing with a soft click. Nina blinked, turning back to look at the mask sitting atop the bed on the other side of the room. ""<span class=""bb-i"">If you really want to know more then asking him would be your best shot.</span>"" the mask chuckled. Yes, the mask can speak but only its wearer, Nina, could hear it. This little fact had given her quite a fright the first few times it decided to speak to her. The mask was completely conscious and had a very demanding grip on her, what it wanted it got and she had no way to say no. ""Why don't <span class=""bb-b"">you</span> explain instead, he seems busy enough..."" Nina questioned aloud. It's response was expected, completely common to the mask. ""<span class=""bb-i"">You really think I paid that much attention? Silly girl you should know better.</span>"" it laughed, mocking her. Right, the mask often had a short attention span... It was truly insane.

Nina groaned before snatching the silver object off the bed. She was going to explore and maybe try to find Pendleton again, she wanted to know exactly what this place was. The brunette quietly opened her door and slipped out, only to freeze at what she saw. This place looked like something from a movie. A shocked gasp left her lips, slowly making her way down the hall towards what looked to be some sort of common area. Maybe someone would be able to help her in her confusion.</div>"

""I take you the most interesting places don't I?"" Kimiko was being flooded with Dite's pheromones, she was extremely aroused. All she could manage was a moan. Dite whispered one word into Kimiko's ear, Kimiko began to writhe in pleasure. Dite just giggled and then kissed Kimiko on the cheek. ""No longer nervous are we?"" Kimiko nodded affirmative. ""We need to be here, not sure why yet. Hope to see more of the ancient Greek deity masks around. Especially the one that became Ares. Did I ever tell you about Ares, Zeus forced us to play the role of brother and sister but he was an incredible lover. Last I heard he was heading to Japan. Shortly after that I left and encountered the Norse people, I came to be known as Freya then. Haven't heard from Ares since or the rest of my fellow deities."" Dite rested her head on Kimiko's shoulders.</div>"

Well, to be more precise, it was a dilapidated shack in the middle of nowhere. With his mask in his lap and his willing of it, the illusion had fallen into place, making his presence virtually imperceptible. Couldn't be sooner, as the building didn't seem to have a ramp for him to try and roll up through the entrance. Looking around the general area and spotting a few planks leaning against the side of the shack, he leant over to noisily knock them over, though the general illusion of imperceptibility would have...well, nobody would notice, even while walking on or crossing over it. Not till the illusion was put to rest, or at least till he separated from the mask. With a little bit more nudging here and there it seemed to become a decent enough ramp for him to make use of.

Finally wheeling himself up and into the shack, he looked up and had a creeping feeling...looking around, just before the doorway, he took sight of a real photographic moment. A large woodland spider in a very thick web, eating a trapped moth. Adjusting his camera, holding it steady, he finally took his pictures before actually going into the building. Mask in lap, camera in hand, looking over the picture briefly...Isaiah finally noticed the--""WOAH, okay!?"" Looking up at what could only be the visage of death, for what must have been minutes, the paraplegic tried to remember when exactly he could have recently died.

No, he couldn't be dead, right? Isaiah doubted he could use a camera is he were a ghost, or even still be wheelchair bound, for that matter. Laughing nervously, trying desperately to trust the strange power of the mask, hoping this reaper false...""...gods...!"" Was the only thing he could mutter to himself in the moments after.</div>"
20591,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-24 03:18:00,twave,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">So ""Koharu"" had stood in the dimly lit waiting room. Both she and Robert were confused as to what was going on. While trying to decide what to do They were surprised as the room began to change and become much brighter and more modern. This place was clearly more than met the eye. Hearing someone else coming Dite and Kimiko entered. After a few seconds They could tell that Robert recognized one of them.

<div class=""bb-indent"">Together they had created a mental construct in their mind. Early on is was a way to cope with being trapped by the mask. Now it was a force of habit when they talked to each other in their head.

Koharu looks at Robert curiously. ""You know who that is?"" Her expression was a little suspicious. As their relationship evolved Robert had come to to find that she could be very jealous when she sensed any kind of attraction from him. ""Well no not really. I know of her. Her name is Dite. She is a celebrity here in the US.""

Both stopped to listen to the odd dynamic of the newcomers. Again Rob had a moment of clarity, although it was confusing. ""Oh duh, Aphrodite. That's where her name comes from."" And again he realized he'd lost Koharu. ""Aphrodite is the name of the Greek goddess of love. There's probably more to it actually. Most of the Greek gods represented multiple things."" There was silence between the two before Koharu shook her head. ""You're such a nerd.""</div>

What took place in their head was extremely brief in reality. Thinking it rude not to introduce herself Koharu raised a hand and waved to singer and her assistant. Thankfully with Robert's help her English went from zero to fluent in the short time they'd known each other. ""<font color=""orchid""><span class=""bb-b"">Hello. My name is Koharu Saito. You're Dite, right?</span></font>"" Seeing as Koharu and Robert currently possessed the same body Dite would probably be able to make out that there were two hearts on the cusp of blooming into a much greater love for one another. Depending on how astute she was at least. The two's concentration was slightly interrupted by the elevator opening up so they could enter. Introductions first though.</div>"
20592,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-24 09:21:00,Traitor,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Of all things death could greet her with, this was one of the things she didn't expect. Something more archaic was what she had in mind. Definitely something involving the word '<span class=""bb-b"">BEHOLD!</span>'. Tension didn't leave her, but since the reaper didn't immediately rush at her, swinging his scythe in delirious bloodthirst, she stood more upright and held the pistol casually in one hand.

""<span class=""bb-i"">You're gonna have to take my word when I say 'yes', bud. I'd rather not take it off right about now, would hate to get sand in my eyes</span>.""

She shoved her hand into one of her pockets, immediately feeling the cold metal of a smoke grenade that wasn't there before. It made her relax, gave her a certain feeling of control over the situation. If things went bad she could just hide in smoke until death became bored, she thought. Regardless of the yet unused grenade in her pocket, the smoke she exhaled through the mask slowly gathered around her feet. Due to being outside, in a somewhat windy area and in the bright morning sun the cloud dissipated partially, so the passive emittance of the mask wouldn't suffice to fully veil her. It would however quite visually imply that there's more to her than just a random passerby with a gas mask.</div>"
20593,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-24 15:56:00,Revans Exile,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Kimiko became extremely embarrassed knowing that others saw her lose control of herself like that. Dite stood up. ""Yes I am Dite. This is extremely embarrassed lass is Kimiko. She doesn't speak much unless it is business or to me. Would you like one or two autographs?"" Dite was curious if her powers would work on this special mask, she knew the Greek deity masks were not affected by each other, unless it was Zeus. Dite walked up behind Koharu. She flooded Koharu with pheromones. She altered the pitch of her voice, Koharu couldn't hear a difference but her brain would react to the difference. ""Tell the other one how you feel. The two of you could have a great sex life together, if you need or want I could tutor you into having a phenomenal sex life. Just let me know.""

Dite returned to Kimiko and using her normal voice. ""Shall we go find out where that elevator goes my sweet?"" Dite grabbed Kimiko's hand and pulled her along. They entered the elevator and let fate have it's way with them.</div>"
20594,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-24 17:54:00,twave,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The subtle and not so subtle push from Dite was slightly unsettling. It reminded Them of of how the mask would manipulate their actions. Even so it sent chills down her spine and a blush to her cheeks. ""<font color=""orchid""><span class=""bb-b"">Uhm, n-no thank you. I'm pretty sure he knows already... Also whatever you just did there, please don't do that again.</span></font>""

<div class=""bb-indent"">To say that the thought hadn't crossed both their minds would be a lie. Both were very aware of the other's feelings. It was hard not to be when they shared thoughts from time to time even when they didn't mean to. It made secrets hard to keep. Robert had felt the push as well, but having taken a back seat for the moment it wasn't as strong. ""Damn what was that?"" Shaking her head to clear it a bit Koharu was kind of embarrassed at letting her thoughts run away with what Dite suggested. ""I don't know exactly. Her words are hypnotically persuasive somehow."" With a slight smirk Robert nodded. ""Yes I can see that."" This prompted a rather hasty response from the girl. ""Shut up! You're the one who wanted to wait."" ""I know, I know.""</div>

While they squabled in their head Koharu stepped into the elevator as well. She wasn't sure if she liked the idea of being in a closed space with Dite but there weren't many other options. Going back to the surface wasn't much of a choice. It was tough enough getting out this far to begin with. They probably wouldn't make the trip back with as tired as they were.</div>"
20595,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-24 19:03:00,shi12,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Nina was rather disappointed in what she had found; having discovered that the common area she had spotted was void of life. The only notable thing in the space was an elevator door...but she didn't know where it lead and the mask didn't feel the need to tell her. Other than that there were only a few chairs and a couch in the room, one of the chairs soon being occupied by the confused brunette. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Put the mask on deary. Everything will make be better if you do.""</span> the mask chimed. It wanted the reigns again, cold tendrils seeping into Nina's mind with that very motive in mind. She reluctantly lifted the metal to her face, giving in to the pull of its words. 

The moment the mask was on her visage things started to change. Her brown hair started to lighten and fade, stretching downward as it grew into a long mess of platinum blonde curls. The blue of her eyes went from blue to purple to a vibrant red and the tan of her skin turned to ivory. 

A chuckle escaped her lips. ""See it wasn't that bad."" Nina laughed, shifting in the chair where her feet were thrown over the back of the chair. She now was sitting upside down, her eyes fixed on the elevator that was humming with life. ""We have company!"" She chimes, the door opening with a ding to reveal three strangers. The woman tilted her head, though upside down, she was curious as to who these people were.

""Hello!!"" She cheered with a smile that could rival the mad hatter.</div>"

She nibbled on Kimiko's ear. ""You want the same kind of relationship as the person in front of us don't you? There is nothing more intimate than sharing body and mind."" Dite began to sway to the elevator music. Kimiko was lost in her feelings, eyes shut tight to block everything but Dite.

When they reached their destination the elevator chimed. Dite stopped to Kimiko's chagrin. Dite pushed Kimiko out of the elevator. When Dite saw the upside down girl she cocked her head to the side. ""You're an interesting one ain't ya?"" She walks up behind her. She reached out to touch the girl's legs. Kimiko sat down in a chair opposite the upside down girl.</div>"
20597,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-02-26 04:47:00,twave,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Dite rubbed Koharu the wrong way. Just something about her was off putting. Maybe it was that she was so loose with her words and affection toward Kimiko. That kind of thing wouldn't be tolerated in her families home. Even if Dite was what Robert said it still didn't sit well with her. When the elevator opened she stepped out without really paying much attention to what was outside it. 

Hearing the voice of another she stopped and saw Nina sitting upside down. Her appearance was unusual. The skin was exceptionally pale and made her look almost sickly. The platinum blond hair matched well with the aforementioned feature. What stood out the most were the eyes, they were a powerful red color that popped in contrast with everything else. Nina was very much alive though, having a cheery demeanor on top of it. That was a much better reaction than the last encounter. ""<font color=""orchid""><span class=""bb-b"">Hello there.</span></font>"" 

Taking a look around They suddenly remembered that they were some place unknown. The modern look from the room above was consistent with the one above. So far there still no answers to anything. Their mask drew them here for some reason. Maybe the others here was a similar experience. ""<font color=""orchid""><span class=""bb-b"">Do you know what this place is? I was drawn here... for some reason.</span></font>"" Perhaps it was best not to mention the mask just yet.</div>"

Her platinum curls were practically touching the ground, not that she minded… she was more interested in these interesting new strangers. “Interesting? Most call it insanity.” She chimed, barely paying the strange blonde a second glance. Instead her shimmering red eyes were fixed on the other woman, the one who had actually greeted her. For someone as old as the mask was manners were <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> important. 

The woman’s lips puckered, her eyes rolling to look up, or in her case down at the floor, as she thought over the question. “Your mask, that’s the reason dearie. This place here studies them and such…” she replies, pointing to the silver mask attached to her own face. “At least that’s about as much as I know, didn’t really pay attention.” She chuckles. 

Suddenly her eyes snap to the other woman, an eyebrow going up. “And what might you be up to? You know it’s not polite to touch someone without their permission, right girly??” she questioned, something dark seeping into her voice past the madness. The cheerful nature in her features was now gone, now she almost seemed ready for a killing spree.

For a few moments Nina merely stared her down, awaiting a reply before another thought interrupted her current actions. Her mood suddenly brightened, the dangerous atmosphere that had been brimming just moments before disappearing with it. “Oh, I forgot to introduce myself! Forgive me for that blip in manners. The name’s Nina Simone, and you three might be?” she chuckled.</div>"

Like the others, he was at least somewhat fearful of the visage of death mere feet away from them. The gas mask wearing woman that he had been speaking with held her gun casually, but still ready to strike if needed. 

""Fear not."" He spoke out to the two of them. ""Neither of you are dead, nor will be."" His body twisted around to look into the shack. He was sure that the people he had seen earlier were already down in the Facility by now, and it would be best if the people up on the surface went down below as well.

The reaper began to glide across the ground and into the seemingly abandoned shack. He stopped momentarily, and turned back around to look at them with the black portals to the void that served as his eyes. ""Come along. There's much to explain."" He then turned back around and walked inside before going down. As he reached the bottom of the basement, Reaper reverted back into the form of Penn, and waited at the doors of the elevator. With a sigh, he reminded himself that the one in the wheelchair wouldn't be able to go down the stairs. As much as he liked showing the new people around this certain way, he was going to have to use one of the other lifts to get him inside.</div>"

Kimiko slowly apporoached the crazy one, as she approached she slowly reached behind her back to grab the knife. Dite liked watching the sudden shifts from a timid mouse to ferocious lioness. Dite would have loved nothing more than to see Kimiko slit the crazy one's throat but she waved Kimiko away. ""Dearie you are about to join a group of very select few.""

She was now sitting on her knees, her fingers clutching the back of the chair as she looked up at the blonde. ""Oh my, I didn't mean to upset you dearie... No, no, no, I just don't particularly like when people touch me without my knowledge. The last individual who did that ended up with a broken arm.... Reflexes and all, war really changes you and old habits die hard."" She pouted, looking like a kicked puppy. 

Nina chuckled, her downright cheery mood once again completely engulfing her. ""I really am sorry dear, hope there's no more hard feelings. It would be quite sad if the only people I've met hated me.... "" she added, her madness seeping away. The mask had its moments of clarity, and lucky for both it and Nina it knew when it was best not to make enemies. She smiled cheerily before letting herself fall back, her feet going over the arm rest and her head laying atop the other. Now she could once again see everyone.</div>"

Walking around the side of the dilapidated structure, he revealed himself to the sunlight that the wall was blocking. Squinting, he followed the reaper down, though waiting for him to reach the floor they were heading to, before noting the number down and pushing the corresponding button to that floor. 
Whilst in the elevator, Bart slipped the mask on and instantly regretted it, all he could hear was shouting and arguing as Bartholemhew retook control of the body. Every soul in the mask was panicing or bickering about the reaper and the fact that Bart was stupid enough to get into the elevator but Bartholemhew stepped in before he could go brain deaf, ""could you all please be quiet,"" he asked dryly, leaning against the elevator control planel by accident, ""or I'll take this mask off and have that idiot Bart take the reins."" a small 'hey!' of disapproval escaped his mouth as  Bart protested. After another moment of waiting, the elevator punted and the doors slid open with a smooth, 'whoosh'; he found himself looking into a rather shonkey looking waiting room filled with strangers, he gripped the cane handle firmly and walked to the opposite end of the room, away from the group of people and sat on a rather uncomfortable couch.</div>"

""Char baby came to join the party? Party hasn't really started yet. Lack of food and entertainment you see, but you were never one to socialize bit of a stick in the mud, always on duty ferrying people to the afterlife across the Styx.""

He tapped and slid his finger across the screen several times before a low rumbling could be heard. Of course, nothing could be seen by anyone underground, but the parapalegic man above ground would have seen a large square of ground rise up to reveal a platform. The lift that Pendleton had activated led to the garage, which wasn't far from where he and the others were. Finally deciding to reply to Dite's comments, Penn put his phone away and looked at her, taking a glance at his mask just before. ""I can't truly explain why you were summoned here."" he told her, but hoped that the others were listening as well. 

""I found this place several years ago in my masked form, the form Dite here knows as Charon. I know him as the Reaper, but that's besides the point. Me and him have a close relationship, and I'm pretty in control when I have the mask on. Like you all, I had a feeling, or wandering thought about coming to this place. I'm still not entirely sure about it's significance and relation to the masks, but I can tell you that there is something binding both fantasy and technology within these masks, and deeper underground than I have dug, could be a beacon of some sort that is attracting the masks.""</div>"

Going through some sort of inner monologue no less, picking apart the reasons why it would most likely not be dangerous. It was a weird thing to happen to her, as normally fear wasn't part of her masked-up periods at all. And though fear still wasn't quite the right word to describe what kept her, it came close. It felt as though a small part of her was in awe of what lied ahead, and while the stronger part could easily force her down those stairs, it decided to ease the process by listing all the logical reasons why she'd already be dead if death truly was after her. The nervous tapping of her foot let small swirls of smoke depart from the cloud at her feet.

After what felt like an eternity, the girl with the gas mask approached the shed. A fleeting look to the side was made, to ensure that her vehicle and luggage wasn't autonomously escaping, then she stepped into the surprisingly cool shadows of the building. Due to the less windy conditions inside and her slightly excited mood, it didn't take long until a noticeable trail of smoke marked her path through the small interior. Unlike the reaper, she didn't feel the other presence here, and so she simply moved deeper into the complex until she found an elevator, oddly out of place.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Here goes nothing.""</span>, she muttered to herself when the doors slid open seconds later and she followed the same path the other visitors went. During the trip down the elevator cabin almost entirely filled with her smoke-emission, giving her a momentary advantage over what might welcome her on the other side and most importantly: confidence. Gripping the pistol tighter and with both hands, she waited, waited. A small chime the harbinger of her arrival and the doors opened. During the time it took the wall of smoke to fall out of the elevator, she scanned the room, analysed that there was no immediate threat present, and let the handgun disappear before anyone could lay eyes on it. Misfit in this little cheery get-together, the oppressive figure stepped out of the elevator, her heavy, sand-crusted boots palpably damaging the modern interior of the room. For some reason, the high-tech scenery below that forsaken shed didn't phase her as much, likely because the encounter with Penn set the standard for surprises relatively high. The only sound coming from her was her breath, heavy and audible through the mask as she took details about the people present. Trying to discern who of them was the reaper, too.</div>"

""The masks that came to be known as the Greek deities had what some might refer to as rules, two in fact. The first was once we bonded we never allowed the mask to be taken off. The second was to never allow the host to have control while the mask was on. I don't know who you are but you are definitely not Charon.""

Dite's attitude changed completely. She didn't like being fooled. She lifted Kimiko up off her lap. Dite also grabs the knife that Kimiko had.</div>"

He was unaware that Dite would react this way, and had a small thought about other reaper masks for different pantheons. However, a resonating feeling from the mask settled those thoughts. His mask was the Only reaper mask. He was Charon, Death, Grim, all to most of the figures that represented death and taking souls to the other side. He even represented some of the faces of death that people believed to be female, like Śmierć and Hel.

""Dite."" Penn told her, his hands slowly moving up to put the mask back on. ""I didn't disagree with you earlier when you called both me and the mask Charon because that is a part of who we are. We represent all sorts of visions of death and reapers."" He took a glance at the knife and back to the woman. ""Please, just put the knife down before things get messy.""</div>"

Yet again you proved you are not Charon, with the Greek deity masks there is no we, there is only the mask. The mask takes over completely it surpresses the weak, useless human host. If I were to remove the mask right now the host would collapse to the floor and never do one single thing for the rest of it's life. There is only one person for the lack of a better term, we may represnet more than one diety over the centuries but at the core there is absolutely no change."" She stood up. ""Assuming I was willing to entertain the notion that you might be Charon, then tell me what happened to Hercules, I was there that day spare absolutely no detail. One wrong word, I promise you things will not get messy it will turn into a blood bath."" She flipped the blade so that it pointed down. ""I have also been several war dieties in my lifetime, I am not some poor helpless woman. I have lost track of how many men I have slaughtered over the centuries.""</div>"
20609,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-03-03 02:16:00,twave,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Things were getting way beyond what Koharu or Robert knew how to handle. Dite and Kimiko  seemed to be going off the deep end with her threats and behavior. And Nina was clearly off in ways herself. What was wrong with all these people? The only one that even slightly seemed normal was Penn who spoke about the masks. 

Moving toward the elevator it opened and smoke poured out to reveal a woman in a gas mask. Koharu had had enough and let Robert take the reigns for a while. Along with the relinquished control came the shapeshifting. They shifted forms from Koharu's to Robert's and he looked around at them all. ""<font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Could you guys maybe cool it or something. You're scaring Koharu.</span></font>"" This was directed more to the others than the one producing smoke, even though there was some concern with that as well.</div>"
20610,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-03-03 02:57:00,pyroman,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""How long have you had your mask?"" Penn suddenly asked. It was obvious that Dite was starting to annoy him, and it seemed as if she didn't grasp the concept of the masks like he did. He was not versed in Greek mythology, and Reaper did not remember every little detail of every soul he sent to the afterlife. Despite this, the mask resonated once against with bits and pieces of the death of the demigod. Nessus, a ferryman centaur, was the cause of his death. Hercules' wife was persuaded by the dying centaur to take some of his blood and use it as a love potion on Hercules. Instead, in her time of need, the blood did not act as a love potion, but a deadly toxin.

""Just how long have you been in possession of it?"" He asked her once more. While not entirely the same, Penn and Reaper were once two completely separate entities. Reaper held complete control once the mask was put on, the Penn regained full control of his body when it was taken off. There was never anything between the two of them about never taking the mask off. The more he used the mask, and the longer he had it, the line between the two separate entities slowly began to blur. Penn became more Dutiful, and by now had complete control over the Reaper form and identity. To an amazing extent, even the powers of the reaper began to seep into Penn's normal form. 

Penn held the mask out in front of him for all to see. Suddenly, it was engulfed and black flames. As the flames subsided, the mask was no longer in his possession. Unfortunately, without the mask worn, that was the extent of that certain ability. He could only call upon and call away the mask, and nothing else. If he ever wanted to access the umbraspace, it would take quite a toll on his human body. Even now, with that simple parlor trick, Penn was slightly exhausted and the man panted as he regained the energy he lost. He was sure though that the more and more he used the mask, the less it would toll on his human form.

Penn looked at Dity sternly and fiercely, the personalty of the mask seeping into him just a little more. ""Whoever put on that mask originally is most likely long gone. Go ahead and cut me into pieces. I'll ferry myself into the afterlife with no problems. You, on the other hand, as well as everyone else here, will only get further away from the answer to the question on everyone's mind: why are we here?""</div>"

Every host ceases to live once I or any of the other Greek deity masks takes control. They become nothing more than a soulless husk. I have been through two dozen hosts none of them but this one felt drawn to this place, which leads me to believe you are responsible. So start talking charlatan. No more games death boy.""</div>"
20612,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-03-03 10:38:00,Traitor,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Charlotte's train of thought was promptly interrupted by the escalating conflict, but at least it spared her the riddling about who was the face of death. Again, not quite what she had expected. An old, evil-looking bald man with a ridiculous beard would have been a better fit, she thought, but at least he wasn't some quirky tiny girl. That would have been <span class=""bb-i"">really</span>frightening. She made her assumptions about how much a bullet could do to death himself and from the conversation going on, the smug, noisy bitch was probably on his level... but it was just too tempting to get out the old Grach. On the other hand, she kind of couldn't care less about the ensuing violence and the reaper was more than likely not someone you could stab anyway. She simply stood in front of the elevator motionlessly, waiting for things to unfold until the reaper took his mask off and put it away somehow. That decidedly tipped the scales as he probably wasn't quite as impenetrable in this state. In the matter of a second she tensed, held her handgun pointed at Dite.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Nice temper you have there missy. Maybe settle down a bit, you're scaring the kids.""</span>

She didn't make the effort to threaten Dite verbally, as the gun was quite unmistakable already. All of this happening at once didn't leave her enough time to ponder the fact that they probably all had some sort of mask similar to her own, but the realization had rooted in the back of her mind by now.</div>"
20613,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-03-03 17:12:00,pyroman,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Only two years. Penn would have expected a longer amount of time from such a haughty woman, but he wasn't going to point and laugh just yet. He needed to be serious. ""I've had my mask for seventeen years, and I know that I am not responsible for bringing you all here."" he said to her, taking note of the gas mask wearing girl who had her gun pointed at Dite. He didn't say anything about it, and instead kept his focus on the masked goddess. ""I told you before, and I will tell you again. I don't know why we've been called here, that is what I intend to find out. However, none of you will get any closer to finding the truth if you kill me.""

Penn stopped and took a breath. Arguing with the form of a goddess wasn't going to get them anywhere. The mask researcher looked at all of the people around him and motioned for them to follow him. ""Now isn't the time for arguing. I'll show you around a little before we get down to business.</div>"
20614,Masks,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76335-masks,"['Modern', 'Fantasy', 'Casual']",2015-03-03 17:31:00,Voltus_Ventus,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Bartholemhew just watched the scene unfold in amusement, 'such petty fighting' he thought to himself, with most of the other souls nodding and agreeing, however he still had his hand on the hilt of his cane, waiting for something to happen so he could unsheathe it's hidden blade and strike as fast as possible. He found the bunch of mask wearers around him very interesting and the addition of the smoke breather turning their little gaggle into a side show attraction. 
""Excuse me Sir,"" called out Bartholemhew from his corner of the room, ""but before I go anywhere with you merry bunch, I think I'd like to atleast be aquatinted, with the more palatable ones at least."" he said, looking at the blonde woman who was holding the knife with disdain.</div>"

The entire argument was pointless, and he was wasting time speaking to Dite when he could have been using the same amount of time to show them the key components to the Facility, as well as everything that he had currently gathered to answer the key question. Like he had told Dite, he could answer why they had all been brought to this location. However, he was well on his way to answering that question. Even though he did have some help from others residing in the Facility, he was the key holder of all of the information. He documented every thought and possibility about the origins of the masks and the importance of the location. 

As he was too caught up in the petty argument, he had forgotten if he had already introduced himself to these people before. ""If I've already said it before, I'm sorry, but my name is Pendleton Howl, and I and the head of the Facility, the underground building you are all in right now."" He spoke to them all. ""Anyways, I'm sure you're all at least somewhat hungry from the journey all the way out here, so we'll be moving along to the kitchen for you all to grab something to eat, then the gathering room, so you can all meet others like yourselves. After that, we'll see just what happens, and go from there. Any questions?""</div>"

The blonde woman, no one had given her a name as of yet, was currently threatening Penn. Nina chuckled quietly, eyeing the knife carefully. It didn’t look too worrisome. The woman sat up though, taking in each and every person in the room with complete curiosity. So far she only knew two names, Dite and Penndleton, and the woman who had asked why they were here had been replaced by a man… which intrigued the masked figure tremendously. 

Nina smiled faintly when Penn mentioned explanations, after all her other side wanted to understand but for now the mask wouldn’t allow itself to be removed this was a bad environment for someone as weak as her normal side.

Crimson eyes turned to the oddly dressed gentleman who had spoken, the woman standing swiftly and gracefully. Finally someone with proper manners, though Penn and the woman…man… were rather polite as well. Nina crossed the space, approaching the man before reaching her hand out for a handshake. “I’m glad someone else agrees on this notion. My name is Nina Simone, and you might be sir?” she chimes, smiling wide.</div>"

He smiled and rose from his seat, slipping his cane under his arm, however instead taking her hand and shaking it, he lowered himself a bit and took it gently in his hand, planting a kiss on it, ""Enchanted,"" he began, looking up at her and smiling before letting go of her hand, ""Bartholemhew Gauge, however the one without the mask prefers Bart."" he said, saying Bart with disdain, knowing that no matter how hard he were to try to arrest power over the body, Bart could simply retake control and take the mask off. Bartholemhew, pinched the bridge of his beak from the top and ran his fingers down to it's tip, getting rid of some of the dust, ""I find the notion of the reaper being here rather unsettling,"" he said, gripping the handle of the cane, ""but I guess I can 'live' with it."" every soul in the mask groaned at the pun and Bart was tempted to take control just because of that.</div>"

Mr. Howl introduced himself and offered a meal. They definitely were hungry and a meal would be welcome. At the same time though at least two seemed unstable to say the least. Thinking realistically going back out wouldn't be a good idea when they were so low on energy. There wasn't much choice here and now.

Nodding a bit Robert stepped up to answer Mr. Howl. ""<font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright, We can agree to that.</span></font>"" Someone had to try and push things along with their host. If they were all led here by masks then there were a lot of questions that needed answering and hostility was not going to produce solutions. Catching Bartholomhew's pun he turned slightly and a chuckle accompanied a grin. ""<font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Oh, I see what you did there. Very nice.</span></font>""

<div class=""bb-indent"">""You're such a dork."" Shrugging to Koharu's comment, Robert just laughed. ""Oh come on, I know you caught it too. It was funny."" This only caused the girl to roll her eyes but a slight smile did flicker across her face.</div></div>"

Nina had not been expecting Bartholomew to kiss her hand; the mask hadn’t come across someone with that particular set of manners in a very long span of time. “It is an absolute pleasure to meet you Bartholomew.” She chimed. “I have to agree though, the fact that our host seems to be death himself is… not something I find completely comforting. He doesn’t seem to want to harm any of us though. I have been here almost a full day, I think, and he has done nothing to worry me too dreadfully much.” Nina replies, her crimson eyes meeting Bart’s gaze. A smile still graced her lips, though it did not seem quite as insane as when these strangers had first arrived. His little joke had been funny, and so she giggled shortly before going quiet once again. 

Nina’s gaze shifted to the other person who had acknowledged Bart’s joke, she still did not know their name. “Oh, and who might you be dear?” she questioned.</div>"

As the brief but volatile stalemate seemed to clear up, tension left her as well and she stopped pointing her pistol at people. It remained in her hand, however. 

The notion of food didn't phase her. She had no plans to take the gas mask off, and obviously that made it impossible to eat. She had also never wasted a thought on the question if there would be other masks before, so her enthusiasm was limited - in fact, she thought it was a bit of a bummer to <span class=""bb-i"">not</span> be unique and invincible, because Howl and herself were indicative enough that <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> masks had some set of special abilities connected to them. Including megalomania, as Dite splendidly demonstrated.

""<span class=""bb-i"">And what is this</span> facility <span class=""bb-i"">for? What are we to you, rats, guinea pigs?</span>"" Her muffled voice was accompanied by intent glares towards Howl.

She ignored the cheery round of handshakes and introductions, hardly interested in social networking with the people who potentially had the power to de-power her. And she was even less interested in running a maze for the grim reaper like some kind of rodent.</div>"

He wondered where the gas mask wearing woman got that idea from, and shook his head at her. This wasn't some bunker where he lured in special people with masks, only to turn them inside out to see how they all ticked in different ways compared to one another. He wasn't some mad scientist, willing to rip everyone to pieces to see how the human body worked. He was a scientist and a researcher who wanted answers, but not with a 'whatever the cost' mindset. <br/><br/>""To me, all of us are keys to the puzzle. I'm not going to turn you inside out for answers, and everything I ask of you is entirely optional. You can leave whenever you please, and come back just the same."" he told them all, but his words were directed more at Charlotte than anyone else. ""I'm not going to force you to stay, nor foce you to be tested upon. The best results come from a willing subject, and don't worry about anything inhumane happening here. I can assure you all, that numerous safety measures have been taken make sure that everyone here is in a perfectly safe environment""</div>"

""<font color=""orange""><span class=""bb-b"">Nice to meet you Nina. My name is Robert Hayshen and the girl you met earlier is Koharu Saito. We share a body whenever we both wear our mask.</span></font> He figured he should introduce them both together since much of the time they were one in the same.<br/><br/>To be honest with themselves neither ever thought they could bring that kind of thing up in conversation.

Bartholemhew extended a hand and a friendly smile towards the masked man, ""Bartholemhew Gauge,"" he began, introducing himself, ""Robert correct? and Koharu I believe."" the council of souls in the mask wasn't sure whether what he said was correct or remotely making sense but it didn't seem to take away from the interaction, so they let it pass without quarrel. ""I'm assuming you two been here longer than myself, so I'd like to query whether the food is palatable, I'm famished you see."" he truly was and the souls in the mask wouldn't mind a bit of food in their collective stomachs.</div>"

You're physical attributes might have changed, you could be smarter, have powers that were unexplainable, even with modern science.

You decide to use the mask, creating an alias for yourself, using the powers to stop crime, or maybe help and cause it. 

Now, the last few times you took off the mask, you've felt almost a drag of some sort. The reversion to your old self isn't happened instantly like it used to. Your powers are still usable for a few minutes after you take the mask off, and you even have a few lingering thoughts in the mindset of your alter-ego.

You put the mask on again, and you suddenly have the need to go somewhere. A feeling in the back of your head that is pulling you to a specific area, bu you don't know where. After fighting the feeling, you eventually follow it. it could have been a block away, or even another continent. You arrive at a building in the middle of nowhere, grass and dirt for miles in every direction. You go into the building, see what's going on.

You find others with masks.

Gender: Male
Name: Bart Gauge (Bartholemhew with the mask on)
Age: 26

Appearance: <a href=""http://www.rinkworks.com/rinkchat/botimages/hon/male/hon_h8_hy_hy_km_kqsqkretknfp.jpg"">http://www.rinkworks.com/rinkchat/botimages/hon/male/hon_h8_hy_hy_km_kqsqkretknfp.jpg</a>

Appearance Masked: The same as above but instead dressed in the attire of a Victorian gentleman, brandishing a cane with a sliver crow handle that conceals a blade.

Mask: <a href=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/4a/86/47/4a86472f5b11c6b955512afb84a6f2cc.jpg"">https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/4a/86/47/4a86472f5b11c6b955512afb84a6f2cc.jpg</a>

Abilities and Quirks of mask: 
The mask gives Bart traits that change him physically, mentally and give him abilities. The main exterior changes that are brought about by the mask are that his hair, both head and facial, turns black and the hair in his head flattens and slicks back. The other exterior change is that his pupils grow to take up all of his visible eye and turns them black, this is coupled with the eye actually expanding in size and taking up all the space of the mask's eye holes. An interesting none exterior change that happens to him is that he puts on a posh British accent and uses a high register of language, with this he adopts the mannerisms of an old-timey Victorian gentleman. Now that the physical changes have been described it's time to move on to the abilities the mask grants him. One of them is elegance with the sword, bringing back the dueling skills of an era long gone, the other much more sinister ability is to conjure a sense if panic into his enemies, though this skill could devastate someone mentally, it requires concentration that is difficult in the heat of battle.

Personality: 
He is a calm collected person, never seen publicly going to the extremes of emotion, always neutral or there about. He's not quick to judge people by their failures or problems, he's had more then his fair share of them. Humble, he is very humble, taking any praise with subdued thanks and never asks for what he knows he can't get.
Even though he us willing to listen to advice that's not saying he will act on it, if it has something to do with his lifestyle he gets really defensive. Doesn't like reflecting on the past, he is usually tight lipped about and doesn't ask others about theirs. He's not really a problem solver, more of a head scratcher, he might give useful bits and bobs sometimes but otherwise he's not the sharpest knife in the jugglers act, just an average Joe.
He is fairly approachable, as in he won't bite (well it depend on who the person is) but better not catch him in a bad mood.

Personality with mask:
With the mask on he is a completely different person, he becomes lively and eccentric but in the casually muted manor of an old-world gentleman. He becomes whitty and humorous, often more sociable then his original self, he never becomes angry, only on rare occasions and even when he is, it's not shouting and finger pointing, it's quiet brooding. He is also fond of drinking when wearing the mask, and if he gets completely hammered he starts to speak in a Scottish accent. However this is not a constant (well the drunk part is), the other souls in the mask have an effect on Bartholemhew.

Biography:
Bart found the mask in a gypsy flee market when he was on holiday in France, this was years ago though. When he purchased the mask, the gypsy woman that sold it to him told him to never wear it once the sun had set. He took this as the ramblings of an old woman and agreed because she was unwilling to sell it to him if he didn't, when he returned home he forgot about the mask and really didn't care, he hadn't payed much for it anyway. However one night he was frantically searching for it, he was heading to a masquerade party and need it, he looked where he left it last and found it missing, checking his bag it was not their either. Knowing he was not going to find the mask, he returned to his room to dress upon his Victorian outfit, he found the mask laying on top of the pile of clothes on his bed, frowning he reached for it and was about to put it on when he hesitated, he remembered that the gypsy woman had told him not to. Shrugging off the unsettling thought, he put it on and instantly saw the world differently, he felt more sure of himself, more confident (and looser in the joints to boot). He eventually never got to the party, he spent that first masked night, brawling with street ruffian and getting hammered in the bar. 

History of the mask: 
The mask has had a rather violent and dark history despite the bouncy and quaint demeanor of Batholemhew, it had witnessed the deaths of countless people and had learned from them, learned from the last wearer of the mask and imprinting their souls into it's velvet interior. It was crafted by a Venetian mask maker under rather strange circumstances, it was made to be a burial mask for a local lord who had died under magical auspices, the mask was enchanted and had wards bound to it to protect the corpse from further evil. When the authorities heard of the dark 'sorcery' of the mask maker they hung him in the streets outside his shop, with the mask staring out at him, from that point on the wards that were meant to protect the wearer turned foul. String after string of wearers wore it and each one had fallen victim to the curse on it and had their souls put on it, however to the run up of Barts ownership of the mask 3 important figures shaped it: A duelist who was stabbed in the neck after a mardigras party, the mask was then relayed to a Scottish cousin of his who was beaten to death in a bar brawl and finally it landed in the hands of a neice of tge scottsman, who had gifted it to her husband who was shot in the eye. The mask wad eventually crated up and sent to a buyer in France but the mask never made it to the collector, instead an empty box was received, the mask had been stollen by a gypsy sorceress and decursed, however all the souls that were imprinted into the mask were still there and age could do nothing to change who they were because they were already dead. She then sold it to Bart, 150 years after she had decursed it.</div>"

The mask's wearer becomes more than a mechanical genius.  In addition to understanding technology right down to the molecular level, the wearer is also able to alter its nature at will.  Willful alterations are small, and any large changes to a piece of technology will need to be made physically, but the wearer's will can create otherwise impossible technologies.  Such changes only remain in effect as long as the mask is worn.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 24

 <div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Appearance"" type=""button"">Appearance [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing?.out=jpg&amp;size=l&amp;tid=45790872""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Nina is a thin figure, standing at 5’7 with very little muscle or meat on her bones. She almost looks frail, though this is nowhere near the case. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked appearance:</span> When the mask is put on Nina’s appearance drastically changes. Her hair becomes a mess of platinum blonde curls, reaching her ribs instead of her shoulders. The pale blue of her eyes become a vibrant red, peeking out behind the monochrome mask. Her usually tan skin pales to an almost ivory tone.

Nina, while wearing the mask, usually wears black leather pants, silver tank-top, a leather jacket, and a pair of black combat boots. She often looks like she belongs in a black and white movie. She doesn’t always wear this; her usual outfit consists of clothes in monochrome hues.

<a href=""http://i01.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v0/1254991133/plastic-font-b-Cool-b-font-funny-Venetian-half-FACE-font-b-guy-b-font-mask.jpg"">Mask</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Mask abilities:</span>The mask itself has the ability to drive its wearer insane, or influence their darker side. 

The wearer though, if they can handle wearing it, becomes stronger, faster, and versed in ancient military tactics. Its true ability though is the ability to create weapons from shadows and to see the possible outcomes of encounters. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Without the mask no one would ever believe Nina could hurt anyone. She’s a very timid, sweet, girl who- before she owned the mask- disliked seeing anyone in pain and would become nauseous when she saw blood. The only thing both sides, with and without the mask, agree on is their love for music and art.

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Personality:</span> Once the mask is on Nina’s face everything changes. Her sweet nature turns dark and sour, becoming a crazed sadist with a split personality disorder. One moment she is a tough, violent, bloodthirsty individual and then the next she is a bubbly, mad hatter-like nut-job. She does know when not to attack people though, and usually only kills those who she deems unfit for this world. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Nina was raised by her mother for most of her life, her father having died when she was young. In truth she was there when he died, having been sitting in the seat next to him during the tragic car accident. 

When she was 19 Nina was studying abroad, a history major, and one day when she was in the city of Berlin she came across an old antique store. She went into the store and after scouring the many items she stumbled across the mask. It intruiged her, pulled her in, and against the clerks constant warnings and what she believed to be rumors, she bought it. Nina studied it, wanting to know the item’s history, and when she came across the stories of the previous owners she became curious. She put it on, laughing at the childishness, but when she finally removed it she knew it was true. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bit about the mask:</span> The mask is made of thick, ancient, polished steel; originally forged from the melted remains of a sword. Unknown to the woman who asked for it to be crafted the sword originally belonged to a madman, one who used the blade to murder hundreds… though most were on the battle field. The mask, once completed, was only worn once by its original owner. She wore it to a gala but went insane shortly after, screaming and haunted by visions of those the sword had killed. 

The mask continued to pass from owner to owner, driving the weak completely mad and pushing some to the violence it once dwelled in. Most of its owners died young, or rotted away in some sort of cell. </div>"

Right after highschool he got a job at a grocery store, if he wasn't such a pathetic loser, he could do better within the company, he made it a dead end job.

One day while shopping at a flea market he found someone selling the possessions of a dead person. One item was a fleshlight inside of a female mask.

Age: 18 (Since last week) 

Appearance: Alex stands at 4'6 with a shag of rust hair atop his head. He has an extremely pale complexion, dotted at the nose (which is small and round), cheeks and shoulders with freckles. He has deep brown eyes that have the warmth of a smoldering cook fire. Oddly long lashes add volume to his already large, round eyes and a healthy balance between fat and muscle gives him a look of extreme normality. He wears frumpy clothes such as heavy wool sweaters and jeans, with classic red sneakers. He is missing the bottom bit of his left earlobe. 

Masked appearance: When Alex transforms into his masked form, he really doesn't change all too much. His eyes seem to carry a new intensity and his shoulders broaden, but nothing extremely noticeable occurs. 


Mask: A solid white panel in an oval shape, it perfectly covers Murphy's face. It is solid white on the exterior, but is clear on the inside. Sound can travel through it as well as air. It doesn't really seem to get hot inside it, and is decently sturdy, and not uncomfortable. 

Mask abilities: When wearing his mask, Alex is able to simply push human limits to their gross extents. Able to suddenly become extremely flexible or durable he adapts consciously to a situation and can better deal with it. He is also able to understand things much more easily and retain masses of information. 

Gender: Male 

Personality: Soft spoken and meek Alex is the kind of person who sleeps on the hard wood floor when you stay the night in his bed. He takes what comes to him and tries to have a positive outlook, blaming nobody but himself for misfortunes that come to him. He is non-confrontational and doesn't assume anybody is a bad person, but is rather ""having a bad day"" .

Masked Personality: The same in most ways, though able to defend and stand up for themselves. He is more intense, and likely to take things upon himself he really doesn't need to. 

Biography: A normal kid, he lives with his mom dad and two younger sisters in his middle class home. He has a part-time job bagging groceries and is currently applying to go to college. He was gifted his mask last Friday on his birthday by his distant and weird uncle he barely knew. When he wore the thing, he was able to do things he couldn't before. While he never went out to solve a bank robbery, he has used it in secret to help strangers in small ways. He has been content with that until now. His curiosity getting the better of him, he and his friend have gone driving to wherever the mask is pulling Alex to go.

Name: Cassie Odveil Rose 

Age: 20

Appearance: Cassie stands at 5'5 with a head of pristine blond hair that is nearly white, and down to almost her waist. Her eyes are shocking blue and one of her most prominent features. She has a modest figure apart from her curvaceous hips. She has a very slight tan, and very well treated skin, with barely any mark on it's surface. Her nose is long and slightly hooked. She usually wears long sleeved shirts and jeans, with knee high brown boots. A modest person she doesn't really care much to wear makeup or stand out too much. 

Gender: Female 

Personality: Outgoing and kind. She isn't the type to let anyone out of the fun, and she stands up for what she wants to say. Being an only child Cassie was lonely as a child, and has taken it upon herself to adopt friends as near siblings, becoming very close very quickly with people. She is quite trusting, and that can be a problem at times. She is confident, in herself and others, but she is still a realist, and will worry internally when a situation looks bleak. 

Biography: Another normal girl, she lived with her Mom and Dad in her uptown apartment. She now resides on campus of her college of choice, and works in a coffee shop down the block. She keeps in touch with most of her friends and is willing to go out of her way to meet up with them as often as possible. She is the one person Alex has shown the masks true uses to. She has a weekend off, and has graciously gone on a road trip with Alex, to hopefully find more about his enigma of a facial accessory.</div>"

That's very reassuring. Knowing you've left it that way with a clear intention is all I need.

I'll have to ask this, because it's a rather cheesy matter, and I'm actually still on the fence about it, but is there a problem with using <a href=""http://f1.bcbits.com/img/a2211611407_10.jpg"">Majora's Mask</a>?

<span class=""bb-u"">Age:</span> 17 
<span class=""bb-u"">Gender:</span> Female 
<span class=""bb-u"">Appearance</span>
<img src=""http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/153/d/f/TOMBOY_by_LIL_PINK.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-u""><a href=""http://images.forwallpaper.com/files/thumbs/preview/99/994576__dark-gas-mask_p.jpg"">Mask</a></span>
<span class=""bb-u""><a href=""http://hitwallpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Gas-mask.jpg"">Masked appearance:</a></span> 
Wearing the mask changes her physical appearance, but not in a way that changes her features, shape or hair color. Instead, it lets her appear roughly five to ten years older, like a person in their mid-twenties. This is in fact a precise depiction of the future Charlotte.


<span class=""bb-u"">Masked Abilities:</span>
While masked up, Charlie can see unhindered, disregarding both darkness and other non-solid sight-impeding substances like smoke or fire. Furthermore, the mask is constantly emitting smoke with every breath she takes. This smoke is usually odorless, but this may change during surges of emotion - for example, when agitated and furious, it may have a taste of gasoline, when holding a deep grudge it's similar to smoke of a fire and cause coughing. The amount of smoke emitted can be controled to an extend. If intentionally cranked up, the smoke can fill small and medium sized rooms reasonably fast, blocking sight for everyone but Charlie. This emission can only be stopped entirely by removing the mask. The glass is mirrored but when using the mask to see through smoke or darkness, it may glow in a bright blue tone.
Wearing the mask enables Charlie to materialize three different items out of thin air:
A <a href=""https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/70/9mm_Yarygin_pistol_PYa_02.jpg"">MP-443 Grach</a>, a semi automatic 9mm russian firearm with a single, fully loaded magazine containing 17 bullets. The weapon can freely be retrieved from any place that is not within the field of view of another person - this means pockets work just as well as simply reaching around a corner, below a table, behind her back. When empty, she needs to either find physically existing ammunition in her environment, or throw the magazine/entire weapon away and not summon it within the next 12 hours. The weapon disappears after discaring it as soon as nobody is looking directly at it - not letting it out of ones eyes is a valid method to prevent Charlie from retrieving it.
A ""<a href=""http://www.messerforum.net/fotoalbum/data/749/4516_Kondor.jpg"">Kizlyar Condor-1</a>"" combat knife that is always in its sheath which is always strapped around her hip, the location of the sheath being behind her back and underneath her clothes. It disappears under the same circumstances as the pistol, but there can be two copies of this item at any given time.
A seemingly endless supply of <a href=""http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/E/A/EA-DUMMY-M18SMOKE_1_MARK.jpg"">standard issue smoke grenades</a> of different smoke colors. She can produce these from any pocket or from underneath any piece of clothing as if it had been there previously. Empty smoke grenade shells don't disappear until 12 hours after depleting their load, at which point the same rules apply as for the pistol or knife.
Lastly, the mask improves her perception, speeds up her reaction time and supplies her with the bodily strength her words often falsely advertise, though all of this well within the limits of a normal human being. It enables her to beat the tar out of an average joe if necessary, but a trained fighter will likely pose a serious problem, an athlete will outrun her and so on.

<span class=""bb-u"">Personality:</span> 
Charlie is what you'd expect from a teenager. She's nosy, loud and doesn't shy away from confrontation, though her muscles do not support the claims her tongue often makes. She's not strong physically, a typical ""dog that barks, but has no bite"". She is often moody and doesn't fit into groups of people, as she always finds some kind of reason to provoke a quarrel, which eventually leads to the group expelling her. There aren't any people in her life she'd call true friends, only a number of superficial acquaintances, though she doesn't mind doing her own thing. Logically, she doesn't work well in teams but is generally bearable unless provoked. She's not quite as simple-minded as her loud demeanor implies, but that's one of the things she likes to keep secret from society, as being underestimated is generally the better of two evils in her opinion.

<span class=""bb-u"">Masked personality:</span> When wearing the mask, her personality doesn't change much. The only noticeable deviation is the fact that her ego and self-confidence are greatly amplified when wearing the mask. In this state, she seems to think of herself as untouchable, invincible - greatly overestimating herself, ignorant to her limits. This also leads to situations where she acts thoughtlessly on a whim, because right this second she feels like doing something irresponsible that may end up being beneficial. She's living a power phantasy when wearing the mask, and acts like it - which can be immensely more stressful to others than her unmasked personality.


<span class=""bb-u"">Bio:</span> 
Charlie's parents died in a plane crash when she was three years old, so she never really knew them. The first thing she remembers is living with her uncle, who is just as much of a scallywag as she is. Despite becoming her guardian after the parents passed away, he never bothered too much with her, and instead left her a lot more personal space than she would have needed to become a decent human being. That, and the wonders of puberty turned Charlie into the rebellious wastrel she is today. 
Nothing breathtakingly amazing happened in her life until that grandpa she never really liked passed away. During the excruciatingly boring mourning ceremony at his house, she stole away and hid in the attic, where she found something looking like a gas mask. Intrigued by the odd thing, she stole it and took it home only to later find out that something was definitely wrong with the thing - though it scared her at first, it began to feel very good. After what can only be described as a crusade of revenge against people who bullied her in school (broken bones only, no fatal casualties) nobody suspected the girl to be the masked culprit and she realized the potential of the mask - she could do anything she wants, nobody would recognize her behind the mirrorded glass or with the older looking body, and nobody could pursue her in the trail of smoke that followed in her wake. She achieved several things thus far, from small-scale theft to beating up a gang of criminals to appearing all over the incompetent media, and while a straight forward bank robbery has not happened yet, it definitely came into consideration lately.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Isaiah Foster

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 28

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask Abilities:</span> The power of illusions, making those the wearer targets see, hear, smell, taste, or feel whatever they pleases. The mask seems to awaken the more negative aspects of his personality, and give it new life. Neither his physical condition nor appearance seems to have changed, and he need only have the mask in his possession for it to work.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Working as a photography teacher, he is often seen as the first person to go to for good, non-prejudiced advice. Still, he is a worrier of a man who often tries to hide his feeling of anxiety and doubt with humour and friendliness, and avoids thinking too deeply of his own personal problems by working on his photography and writing. This man seems thoughtful, compassionate, forgiving…and a darker side to him loathes how pitifully he feels himself to be, and mores so loathes the pity of others. Deep down, he knows himself a coward, and doesn't want to burden others, but is ultimately afraid of being abandoned. Even deeper down, since he first touched the mask, a tiny voice is telling him he doesn't even really need anyone in his world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Quick Biography:</span> Him and his young fraternal twin were both failed abortions, though unfortunately Isaiah was the only one coming out of it not quite healthy. Both being adopted by a doctor couple who took care of them for the longest time, both fully able to help him along in his youth with paraplegia and chronic pain. They wanted to treat both their new sons equally…which somehow ended up not having expectations of them at all. Twenty plus years later, somehow his healthy brother ends up being the irresponsible rehab dwelling drunk-druggie, leeching off of their adoptive parent’s saved money…while Isaiah became a well-known enough photographer and artist, able to support himself.

Finally proposing to his long-time girlfriend, it was a photography student of his that revealed evidence of his fiancé’s affair…with his brother. It sort of…broke the small confidence he had, as it seemed more and more like the world was rewarding his brother more for nothing, and that his wife to be was staying with him due to pity. Still, afraid of becoming alone by revealing what he knew, antagonising his own brother and fiancé with the truth…he decided to just pretend he didn’t know of any of this, and marry her anyway.

Any sweetness from her was becoming more and more obvious pity, to him, long stretches of time becoming more…their honeymoon was spent acting happy about being newlywed, and the sights of Venice. It was his wife that bought him the Jester mask, joking about how it was ‘fitting’. Fitting? How? Was she calling him a fool? A jester in medieval eras was mentally handicapped, not physically; she had to be calling him a fool for apparently not knowing about the affair. The mask in hand, he cast his first ever illusion on himself as he held it up to his face.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: Robert Hayshen

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 18

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>: Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/kQ3wBWV.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Fairly reserved in most aspects. Most would probably pin him as boring because he does not go out and ""have fun"" like everyone else. While we will go to the occasional party he is usually the quiet one in the corner. Not because he's overly shy, he just doesn't like a lot of attention. He can still be a goof ball though at what seems to be random times.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Plays soccer, some outdoor living knowledge from Boy Scouts.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/92vcyU3.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Generally outgoing with most people. She won't always share everything with people she's just met though. If you want to see her more serious side you'll have to get to know her or catch her with her friends.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>: Can ice skates, a strong sense of focus.

-----

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask</span>: 
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/tCp9iICl.png""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Masked appearance</span>: Varies, but whenever they merge they initially become Robert or Koharu at random.

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Abilities</span>: Shapeshifting. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Masked Personality</span>: The personality of the mask is heavily dependant on what they transform into. Taking the form of another human is usually fairly benign but sides more on the mischievous when unchecked. Turning into a monster may make them more aggressive. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Mask history</span>: One of what used to be many. The mask was originally created as a way to scare away or fight off attackers centuries ago. As time went on these masks dispersed and undoubtedly what spawned many myths and legends. What the wearer could turn into was dependant on their imagination. Some used this power to steal and destroy. Others used it as a tool to help and bring people together. Whatever the case those that possessed the masks were hunted and killed. Over the years most were destroyed entirely. The one that did survive only did so because it had been split in two. Each piece alone would not change the wearer, but once both found they would stop at nothing to become one again. One of those halves found it's way to Japan and carelessly tossed into a bin with other masks. The other was taken and locked away, passed down from generation to generation but never worn.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>: Robert and Koharu grew up completely unaware of one another. Nothing unusual or particularly Earth shattering went on in their lives. They were students, reality was supposed to smack them in the face afterwards. They lived on opposite ends of the world and likely would never have even met were it not for the mask. Their adventure started six months before. 

Robert was your average teen. He was almost done with high school and, as one would expect, couldn't wait for it to be over. A group of the kids from the school were planning to do something big when they graduated, a trip to Japan. Not one for the eccentric or travelling Rob turned it down outright.  The weekend rolled around and one of his friends invited him and a couple of other buddies over for a game night. As it got later and most of them crashed for the night it was just three left. Having played their fill of video games they get bored and start trying to find things to do. Apparently there was a bunch of old stuff from the friend's great grandfather in the garage. Might be something worth looking at in there. Rob actually found quite a few pieces that were interesting. Pieces of history here and there but also a lot of junk. One thing they found was a locked box. Fishing around for the key they got it opened and found the mask. The other two were instantly disappointed by the contents, a boring old mask. Who locks that kind of thing up? But Rob often found odd trinkets pretty interesting so he picked it up and placed it on his face briefly. ""Hey guys, when were you planning to go to Japan?""

Across the Pacific Saturday was only half over. Koharu was out and about with her mom and a friend. They planned to pick out some clothes for the season and had already gotten most of that out of the way. They stopped an had lunch before moving on. Now they were just killing some time and the girls wanted to see the little knick knacks that were at the nearby shops. A lot of novelty items. Things you talk about but never buy because you don't really need them. Happening across the bin of masks they began to pick up various ones and act out what they were or ask the other what they thought it looked like. It was all just fun and games. Having gotten to the point of just grabbing a mask and throwing it on Koharu snatched the half piece and put it on. It only took a second for her to realize it looked broken and she glanced at the bin for the other half. It wasn't there but now for some reason she thought the one in her hand was pretty neat. With her own money she purchased it and brought it home.

They had put the halves on at the same time and from that moment they were fated to meet. Working it's will through them Koharu kept the mask and Robert brought the rest with him on the trip. Neither had put on the mask since, but five days after Rob's arrival they both absent mindedly took it with them. Koharu made a short trip to the city Rob was at for some errands. Coming ever closed together the two probably passed each other multiple times before the moment finally arrived. It was getting late, somehow they had lost track of time. Heading for the subway system in a rush they ran into each other as Rob rounded a corner. Koharu's bad dropped to the ground and the contents spilled out. ""Oh god. I'm sorry. Are you alright?"" Rob might as well have been speaking Greek because the girl didn't seem to understand him, or at least not very well. Finding himself at fault Rob began to help pick things up. He spotted the mask and was about to reach for it when Koharu snatched it up and held it close. He recognized it and without saying a word pulled out the other half and held it out. By the looks of the pieces they appeared to fit and they put them together. The mask fused together to become one and likewise Rob and Koharu fused together. For this first time they took Roberts form  Both minds were still independent but working together to control the one body. Obviously both freaked out and reached up where the mask would be. Removing it they split back apart and each held a half again. Needless to say they both took off away from each other but there was no way they were going to be apart for long.</div>"

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span></span> Raymond White, but when he puts on his mask he becomes his alter ego; Akumetsu.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></span> 19, almost 20
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span></span> Male

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Masked powers:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">☠ Firemorphing ☠</span> - Firemorphing is not the ability to shoot fire and such as is popular in most fire based powers but is actually the ability to be able to morph ones limbs or body parts into fire. For example, Akumetsu could engulf his fist in searing flames (these would not harm him) and punch someone to cause extreme damage. Another extreme example would be morphing his entire body into flames or something of the like. It, also, would not be uncommon to see him morph his arm into a fiery sword or halberd.

<span class=""bb-b"">☑ All Around Improvements ☑</span> - The mask also affords Raymond some all around enhancements to his basic abilities. He becomes a little faster when running, he just a little more endurance, he has more strength, et cetera.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></span> Raymond is shy and timid without the mask. He likes to make jokes and so forth but only once he's come out of his shell, which he rarely does. His mother once said, ""if you know your way to Raymond's heart, you know the secrets of the universe.""

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Masked personality:</span></span> When masked, Akumetsu is fiery and cocky, always talking back and looking for any possible fight he could pick. He likes to make snide remarks and retorts and always defies authority, if only to be an arse. Akumetsu is not to be played with for fear that you might set him off into a frenzy. Akumetsu is not totally without reason however. He can work with others towards a greater goal, but he will always be a fuse waiting to be lit by a stray spark.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Background:</span></span> 

Raymond was not born to a broken home. Raymond was not born to a hood family in the projects. Raymond was born to a perfectly normal suburban white home. His childhood was smooth sailing, nothing wrong with it. Sure, Raymond had always been a timid kid ever since a young age, but his parents expected that this would fade. Besides, even if it didn't it wasn't that big of deal. His family was very close knit, always going out for family outings and trips around the continent for ""family bonding time"" as his mother put it. Raymond's childhood was a pleasant one, and there was nothing wrong with that. 

However, oddities began to occur when he was just thirteen. His mother had taken him to a industrial area to return a few cans of paint thinners she had bought. She left Raymond in a pawnshop next door, instructing him not to touch anything for fear he might break it. He was allowed to look around and if he was on good behavior maybe his mother would buy him something as a special treat. After looking at several old flowery dresses and ceramic vases with much disinterest, something caught his eye. It was a mask, one that would shape his life. It was glistening red and smudged black, and it was quite possibly the most extraordinary thing he had seen in all his life. He felt an almost immediate pull to it, almost like something was gravitating him to it. Like someone was pulling on the strings that controlled his muscles and was simply dragging him to the mask. He looked at the price tag, thinking to himself that he had to buy the mask, to find it a walloping 1500 dollars. Something possessed him and he did something he would have never done in his life and he swiped the mask and hid it in the breast of his jacket.

Over the years, the mask got lost and found and lost again, and finally stored in a secluded and musty corner of his garage. By this time, Raymond was 18, just about to leave for Westpont College of the Arts to get his degree in Art History. As he was packing his things and going through boxes he discovered his old mask again. And the rest is history.</div>"

To be completely technical about it for a second here...

Exhibit a
- ""goddess"", implying female gender
-&gt; implying female biology

Exhibit b
- ""if it bleeds, we can kill it"", an old saying

Exhibit c
- ""People think they can kill a goddess with a cane sword or a pistol.""

a + b = c

History: Born in the southern isles, Alexander is from the chaotic city of Erumai.  Magic in the southern isles differs greatly from elsewhere, being more of a science than an art form, but Erumai is a trade city, and all manner of beings find their way there.  Far from home he is mostly unknown, though tales of magic and demons surround him wherever he goes.

  Many witches and wizards from across the kingdom were gathering around castle Lorelei. Some were showing off by juggling fire balls or making themselves disappear and re-appear a few feet away, but others had their eyes set on the castle. Among the swaths of people was a young woman dawned in a long gown with black feathers streaming from her shoulders down the back and on to the foot of her dress. This was Lady Clara and many moved out of her way as she strode towards the doors. Her eyes were golden and wild looking as was her dark hair that seemed to blend into the black feathers once it reached her shoulders. No one accompanied her or seemed to be protecting her, but many cleared a path for her. The woman emitted an odd aura like a cold chill in the middle of a summer day. It was an eerie presence that would cause most to experience their hair standing up on end. 

She smirked at the guards as they opened the large double doors to allow her entry. ""LADY CLARA OF THE WINTER WILLLLDDDDSSS"" Bellowed a man at the entrance of the great hall. It was a long corridor where the king and court sat at the far end. By the time Clara arrived, the room was half full. The competition didn't seem to bother her though. Her eyes searched greedily for the king and once she spotted him she bowed graciously. 
""I thought you would come Lady Clara. It does my heart good to see so many gifted magi willing to help our kingdom.""
Clara and the king both knew very well that the only reason so many have gathered was for fame and fortune, but the king was a kind man and liked to coat the whole affair with an air of generosity rather than greed. ""It is an honor my king."", she smiled making her face look more wild and menacing.

She stood as closely as she could to the royal court and didn't speak to anyone, not that anyone other than the king was willing to speak to her. Too many rumors buzzed about of her dark magic and dangerous methods to allow others to feel comfortable talking to her. Those who held titles of heroism and strength rivaling hers didn't wish to be associated with her either. There was no room for socialization though, she was too preoccupied with the task at hand. There were rumors of a temple trapped in a magical dome, but other than that there weren't many details on the matter.</div>"
20757,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-08 05:25:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The city of Lorelei felt empty to Alexander.  Compared to his home city Erumai, where walking down the street was like swimming through hundreds at almost any time of day, anyway.  There was less people on the street than what was usual though, because many where at the castle or heading to the castle to see the gathered spellcasters.  Pulling his hood up to keep out the chill Alexander made his way to the castle that loomed up before him.  Despite his feelings it was not a small city, in fact Lorelei was far larger than the other cities in the area.  As he found himself coming closer and closer to the castle he felt more eyes passing over him.  Alexander knew what they were saying.  He was a sight to see in his thin cloak he had brought from the southern isles.  Covered in runes from his homeland it was all he needed to keep the cold away, so he had never bought any of the thicker clothing up here.  No, everything he wore underneath the cloak was silk-good summer cloathing.

Gathered before the castle were a large number of lesser beings.  They attempted to awe people with their meager power, or somehow convince the guard that they too should be let in and hear the kings challenge.  After the announcement, though many would try to keep it to themselves, rumors will spread like wildfire and many of these weaklings would attempt to follow.  If this challenge was anything like he hoped it to be, Alexander knew that they would die, as would many of the stronger witches and wizards that were here.  The path to the double doors opened up before him as if he was some daemon.  The small displays of magic were stopped and all eyes followed the strangley cloaked man from afar.

""Lord Alexander, Magus Primus of Erumai, Wizard of the Southern Isles!""  The guard yelled as he opened the doors.  It had taken him several tries to say the whole thing correctly and only then had Alexander let the guard announce him.  On each side of the corridor there were many witches and wizards here.  These ones had more power to them than those outside and the their auras made the room sound like it had a large fireplace.  Alexander almost smiled to himself, he kept control of his aura and made himself seem powerless-as was the practice of all Wizards of the Southern Isles.  A rare title, with only 13 living claiming it at any one time, it was awarded on experience and skill more often than power, though every few generations a Magus would claim the title through sheer power.
""It is an honor to have someone from the southern isles offer help, Alexander d'Erumai.  I must say that I am a little suprised and incredibly happy.""
Alexander smiled and inclined his head to the king.  He was here for himself and did not represent the Southern isles, though the king knew that.  ""I am glad to help.""  After pulling his hood down he faced the masses and scanned over them, attempting to look each of them in the eyes.  Gasps echoed throughout as they saw his eyes-demon eyes.

He had moved off to the side, though many stared at him still.  There was one other that had seemed to be alone by the court.  She was wearing a pretty gown that was ruined by the black feathers that trailed down it.  The effect was enough to intimidate the many though.  Or was there something more to her, that so many would fear her?  Alexander smiled as he stood next to her.  The talk of the hall was no longer centered on the task at hand, which was annoying as he had no idea what it was.  Alexander had not paid any attention to the rumors, knowing that the King himself would tell them the problem.</div>"
20758,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-08 22:37:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/takeoendo"">@TakeoEndo</a>

Clara glanced sideways at the figure who now stood by her side. She saw the odd warm weather clothes he had sported, but quickly saw the runes. It made sense now why he didn't seem uncomfortable. Her eyebrows raised slightly. So this was the famed wizard of the southern isles. His name and his tales even reached her ears up in the northern wilderness that she called home. Then again, a wizard of such ability was bound to have tales and rumors spread throughout the land.

After more people arrived and settled into the crowd, the king stood. The room fell silent, ""Welcome spell-weavers!"", his voice rang throughout the hall.  ""I see some have come from a far off to aid our kingdom in it's time of need and for that, I'm eternally grateful."" He smiled and gave a small bow. ""In case you are wondering, the rumors of the southern temple are true. Very recently, we have lost all contact with them due to the appearance of some sort of barrier or dome that seems to have entrapped those within it's boundaries. I've sent my armies and no common tool or weapon can penetrate it's walls. It is beyond my abilities to help the southern temple."" The room began to hum with murmurings. This barrier must be powerful to withstand something as powerful as the kings forceful assault. Nothing physical can penetrate it? Was it like hitting stone or some other substance when struck? When the king rose his hands for quiet, the magi fell silent once again. ""My kingdom beseeches you! You, who have harnessed the power and wisdom of magic! He or she who is able to free the temple will, along with our eternal gratitude, be granted the position of royal court magistrate as well as the title of grand wizard of Lorelei!"", after that being said the great hall filled with roars of confidence from the witches and wizards eager to prove their might. 

The journey from the city of Lorelei to the northern temple border took either weeks or days depending on how they traveled. Some went on foot, others on horseback or carriage. Some even used their abilities to transport themselves to the southern temple, but Clara wanted to conserve her strength for the feat of breaching the barrier. She did not like the warm southern weather, it was sticky and the air was thick and soupy. Clara was more accustomed to the cold bitter climates of the north. She sighed feeling sweat on her brow as her and many others who had formed caravans had finally began to draw near to the barrier. Her eyes widened with a mixture of excitement and awe. What she saw, was what seemed to be a electric blue bubble reaching high into the heavens on the horizon. It grew bigger and bigger as they got closer. Cries of wonder and fear spread throughout the caravans, but it only encouraged Clara to eagerly push onward.

They continued on to the point where they were a couple hundred feet from the great opaque wall that separated them from the area known as the southern temple. Clara, now dressed for the warmer climate, had dismounted her horse to get a better look at the barrier without fear of her beast getting spooked. The bright blue wall seemed to pulsate with wild energy. It was so alien to many of the mages, that several of them simply stared at it. It wasn't long before they started murmuring amongst themselves about ways to approach it. These discussions soon grew into heated arguments until someone had finally had enough of it, and threw a ball of flame at the dome only for it to be absorbed into it. More and more elemental wizards and witches threw spells at it with no progress. Clara simply watched with hungry eyes to see if any of their efforts would make a difference. She was fully content with them wasting their energy.</div>"
20759,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-09 02:36:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As the king spoke Alexander resisted the urge to laugh at all of them.  This task would prove impossible to many, since they thought that most forms of energy were not physical.  Though it was true that a rock could be stopped by a barrier but fire might not, if the barrier truly stopped all physical attacks then fire would be no more effective.  A barrier of that size and power though, Alexander couldn't help but wonder who had created it and why?  He shook his head slightly.  Not having seen it or tested it, there was no point in getting all worked up.  All these questions and more could be answered upon arrival and no sooner.  A position he didn't want, though the title never hurt.  The roar that filled the hall irked him.  All of these mages were like children still, unable to contain their excitement around others.  Another proof they would fail.  The ability to control one's emotions was directly linked to their ability to control magic.

He briefly considered using magic to travel to the temple and beginning his study, but reconsidered.  Even if he did so it would tire him, and so many others would do the same.  They would see his magic, though many would fail to understand the complex castings from the southern isles.  A few may have studied it and may be able to interpret his runes though, and that could cause problems.  Better to arrive late and see their progress.  Walking to the temple took some time, and the temperate air blew through his robes unencumbered.  The runes stopped the chill and the extreme heat, but this air was not warm compared to his native land.  It felt nice.  Alexander could tell by the road he traveled on that this land had not suffered, it was wealthy too.  He wondered during his travel how a land could grow large and wealthy without developing a system as they had.  A good question for a book he might write.  Thoughts of writing and ruling disappeared as he saw the barrier.  Powerful indeed.  This dome felt to him as if it had been placed on this temple from above by a God or something else.  But Alexander shook that depressing thought, there were plenty of ways an entity could manage something like this that didn't require them all to fail and possibly get obliterated.  As he grew closer and closer he couldn't help but hear the dismay as many realized the difficulty of the task at hand.  So many would leave on the first day, some without trying, some without failing.  Time would tell.

Finally the mass was close to the wall.  Being rather late compared to many, Alexander noted that many elementalists cast their magics on the wall to no effect.  The dome seemed to absorb their power.  It made sense, if some lesser being had created the barrier and used physical energy to power it they could maintain it easily.  Or they could have some sort of trap set up to use all that energy it gathered.  Caution, not fear, would be his motive.  After all, he was mortal.

Alexander had almost given up watching when suddenly a wizard stepped up from the group that had been watching.  His aura was alive like a fire, though it was not tangible yet.  Looking at the aura instead of just feeling it he saw it for what it was.  An actual fire, reaching almost ten feet in height.  This wizard was far stronger than those who wasted their power first.  Alexander couldn't wait to see how the barrier reacted to so much power.  The air sizzled and the area seemed to heat up as the wizard ignited his aura, making it into a tangible fire and giving him incredible power, if temporarily.  A streak of white fire flew and hit the wall, it's reverberations actually sending blue lightning sparks across the dome.  Alexander smiled, studying the wall with his eyes that could <span class=""bb-i"">see</span>.  The wizard launched an entire wave of this fire, almost twenty-five feet in width, at the barrier as his aura disappeared.  It was like watching lightning in a storm dance across the clouds.  In the end though, the barrier stood with no damage done.  If anything it glowed with more power.  The elementalist of power no longer had even the average mage's aura.  Shaking his head at the foolish waste Alexander returned his attention to the dome.  All that energy was good, it lit up the membrane and allowed them to see the actual sections of the dome that held it up and projected energy.  This thing was not paper thin.  It was thick enough that they could not see the temple beyond.

Deciding not to test the dome while it was so strong Alexander walked around looking for somewhere to make camp.  Though it was only lunchtime he had no doubt that the dome would not be normal today, and he wanted to have a decent meal before writing out possible theories and magical tests to verify them.  Once he isolated a theory or eliminated a majority Alexander would consider a solution, or rather, a way inside.  Even if he knew the exact composition of this dome and had the power to tear it down, doing so from the outside was wasteful.  It's weakness was, without a doubt,inside.  So inside he would go.  Opening a small tear would still not be easily done.  Drawing a summoning circle on the ground, Alexander summoned his tent.  The circle lit up with energy before disappearing and poof, there was his tent.  Inside it was larger than it looked, thanks to enchantments he had cast when the tent was made.  It had a queen sized bed, a bookshelf, a small table and a place for him to cook.  It was fairly difficult to enchant something and mark it for summoning at the same time.  Usually they interfered with each other.  Quite a bit of work had gone into his tent.  After making a stew he sat out in front of his tent and stared at the mages that panicked and yelled at each other as they attempted to figure out what to do about the dome before them.

Clara watched the other mages try a different assortment of tricks from using elemental force to trying to call through the barrier using mysticism, but to no avail. Other wizards had theorized that the barrier went through the ground and was probably a uniform sphere around the temple. What was interesting to Clara was the amount of energy the barrier could absorb. Most creations that had such an ability tended to have a certain point where it could only withstand so much energy at one time. What was its limit? Did it have one? Everything has a limit, but is it possible for a mortal to reach it was the question, or should they even bother? Clara tried to see this situation much like an old war general would when planning an invasion. Why waste your resources trying to break down the walls of an impenetrable fort when it would be much easier to have a spy destroy it from within? 

Her golden eyes grew steely as she gazed into the abyssal blue wall of energy. How could she fool a barrier that absorbed energy and repelled solid objects? Then she thought of the man who used almost all of his energy at once to attack the barrier with a glorious arch of white hot flame. She remembered the barrier rippling as it directed the energy throughout the dome. What if.. She was able to produce about half that much energy, which would mean she would need aid to produce as much as that mage had. He probably reserved for months in order to get that effect. 

Looking away from the barrier she closed her eyes no longer searching with them. She needed to feel the others auras. She needed someone strong but also someone with knowledge of technical magic. She did not have the natural ability to do what she thought might work. A cloak stitched with silk with runes written all over it came to her mind's eye. Yes, a type of technical magic, but she knew nothing of his aura, he had to be masking it.
Her mouth jerked then broadened into a almost hysterical grin. Time to go ask.

Walking around the perimeter of the caravans, she finally spotted a rather interesting looking tent. Her eyebrows rose up as she took care not to tread to closely in case it was warded. ""Hello in there!"" She called still wearing a hysterical grin. Her plan was ridiculous which made it more exciting.</div>"
20761,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-09 04:09:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/oowonderkinoo"">@oOWonderKinOo</a>

After eating and writing for a while Alexander had wandered back into his tent and searched his small bookshelf.  The books on it were written in a large number of languages, some of them were even titled in the same magic runes that he wore on his cloak.  It had taken years to gather them and all of their knowledge was invaluable.  No two book covered the same subject and all of them were advanced in their own areas.  He had read each and every one of them through once, but had yet to test many of the ideas out or even theorize about them.  One book he had gone through and tested and experimented with every idea, and it was titled Geomancy.  The art of controlling magic through geometry and mathmatics.  It was what had allowed him to develop this tent, and many of the ideas inside had allowed him to become a Wizard of the Southern Isles.  Unfortunately his familiarity with it allowed Alexander to recognize that there would be nothing inside to help him here.  A long night of reading was ahead.

Then he heard someone.  A woman.  He had expected someone to approach him eventually.  With every intention of turning her down, Alexander walked to the entrance and opened the tent flap.  Recognition dawning, he moved to the side and held the flap open.  This was the woman he had noticed before.  Her aura was strong.  Different from the others out there and yet the same.  Women were known in the Southern Isles to be weaker than men in magic, but their finesse was to be envied.  After all, experienced magic users in the isles all knew that finesse was more important than the small amount of strength they lost to men.  ""Please, come in.  Would you like something to drink, or eat perhaps?""  Alexander turned and walked away from the entrance, towards a pot of tea he had brewing.  The tent flap would remain open for her until she came in, held up by mysticism.

He poured two cups of tea and carried them to the table.  Though the insides of the tent were rich with magic energy, he created a bubble around the tea cups allowing even an amateur to discern that they were nothing more than that.  Tea.  No poison, nothing more.  There was a hint of cinnamon added in for flavor.  Alexander had thought it a horrible idea until one traveler insisted he try it, and sure enough that cinnamon made the tea taste like nothing he ever had before.  Sometimes Alexander thought that cooking could be as interesting as magic, but since magic existed cooking could only ever be a hobby for him.</div>"
20762,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-09 04:46:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Clara stepped closer then bent low to enter the tent. She looked around the interior of the tent very amused with it's craftsmanship. Her guesses were true, from what she saw burned into the ground around the tent. He had produced it with some sort of technical magic to which she knew close to nothing of. ""Thank you for granting me an audience."" She chuckled jokingly. ""Do the people in your land speak to you like that or is it just my naive king?"" Her golden eyes moved up and down him taking in as much information his figure, clothes and mannerisms could give her. Still no trace of power that she could sense was coming from him, but the air had a magical almost electrical hum. 

When he offered her a seat, she happily took it and sniffed at the tea. ""Cinnamon in tea?"" She looked down at it and took another long and deep breath. It smelled amazing. With one hand, she took up the cup and brushed her hair back with the other before taking a small curious sip. Bits of her hair were loose from her long journey to the barrier making her look disheveled. Her dark hair was pulled back in a braid that went down the back of the head and nape of the neck, but her hair was long enough for the hair to look like a short dark rope between her shoulder blades. 
""Mmmm it's good! Is it tradition in your land to spice your tea this way?"" 

After a few more sips of tea she let her gaze slowly trail from her cup to the bookshelf to him. ""How can you penetrate a barrier that absorbs energy and repels solid objects?"" Clara's golden gaze snatched away from him and looked down as if she was asking the question more to herself than him. ""That elementalist used all but enough energy to allow him to breath in order to try to blast the wall open."" Her finger tip glided over the rim of the tea cup as if speaking her thoughts. ""What he did was very useful for us actually."" A grin broadened across her face while she looked at her own reflection in the tea cup. ""It showed us that the barrier has to take some time to redirect the energy thrown at it."" Clara looked up at him obviously excited to the point of not being able to bare it. ""What if there was a way to encase or coat a PERSON in energy!"" She gripped her cup tightly. ""Enough energy to where it took time for the barrier to redistribute the energy thus allowing us passage through!"" She seemed out of breath at the very idea. It was ludicrous but it could be possible. ""You're tent is a product of magic I know nothing of. It's technical I'm sure, but with your knowledge, something could be managed I'm sure. At least an idea!""</div>"

Or maybe fear.  I forget.  Your king did rather well, he even got my name right.""  Alexander smiles at her, trying to make eye contact.  Slit down like cats eyes with orange and yellow irises, looking into his eyes incited terror in many.  Humans knew what a demons eyes looked like, and they recognized them unconciously.  It was a price he had paid, but one he had paid willingly.  She was beautiful despite days of travel, hair worn braided down her back.  More importantly her aura was interesting to him.  It was similar to the other mages, much like one dog is similar to all other dogs, but unique in ways that he wasn't used to seeing.

""Admittedly, while we do use spices in many things, cinnamon in tea is not something I had seen until I spent time travelling.""  Alexander laughed softly.  As she asked him first a question, and then slowly revealed her idea he could not help but smile.  She was very good, and she had paid far more attention than he had.  To add onto that, she was assuming he knew many things and had more experience then she.  How interesting.  So few had interested him in years, only magic had drawn his attention for more than a short while, yet here was a woman that sparked his interest.  It would be good to work with her on this, maybe see what he could learn from her-someone with such a different view.

Alexander drew his finger across the tabletop, green light marking his path.  Completed he waved his hand over the single rune and the light moved to reform itself.  <span class=""bb-i"">Clara</span> it spelled.  Doubtless she felt the small tingle of magic as it sought her name.  ""A beautiful name, Clara.""  Standing, Alexander walked over to the bookshelf, ""There is a spell that I know of.""  He pulled out a tome he had read several times, but never interacted with much.  It was an interesting book, but dangerous.  ""It will allow us to turn our auras into pure energy, and thus walk through the barrier together.  Naturally it is not so simple.  It will require us to tie our auras together, and while our hands also touch, our auras will become corporeal energy.  What do you think?""</div>"

It had to be her name, she was drawn to the symbol. Symbols with connections to a person did funny things like that. Be it symbols of their past, present or something repressed about themselves, they could pull at a individuals very spirit. Her gaze flicked back into his face and his eyes after receiving his compliment. What she saw in his was something vaguely similar to her own unnaturally golden eyes. They symbolized a certain trade or perhaps a taintedness in their beings, something that wasn't there in the beginning. A grin pulled at the corners of her mouth as she watched him. She liked the unknown, for it fed her unquenchable curiosity. So many things about the southern isles that she didn't understand and there was not just local to the area but a revered mage of that land sitting right in front of her. It was a treat indeed. 

She pulled her tea closer to her while leaning back into her seat. He retrieved a book with symbols on them that seemed foreign to her but naturally piqued her interest. When he mentioned that he knew of a spell, she smiled inwardly with self satisfaction, she was right. It might be possible. Then again, who would build a barrier without having some way to cross it? There had to be a fail-safe in case something like that would be turned against them right? Alexander explained the mechanics of the spell and Clara arched an eyebrow at him after taking another sip of her tea. ""Do we have enough energy to do it?"" She was hinting toward the amount of energy he was hiding from her. Clara was surrounded by several examples of his ability but nothing showed his power or aura. She had to be sure. 

""Tying them together?"" Her lips moved wordlessly as she repeated the phrase to herself. ""Sounds rather intimate."" She chuckled lightly looking amused by the thought. Then a slight look mixed between being puzzled and concerned spread across her face and melting her smile.
 ""How 'tied' are be talking about? Can they be separated afterwards? What does your book say?"" She knew that reading it herself wouldn't do any good since she had no idea what language it was in to begin with.</div>"
20765,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-09 07:41:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alexander smiled politely.  The book he held was written in a dead language.  It had taken him years to find it and he was still deciphering the whole thing.  Everytime he read it gave him a deeper insight into how auras worked.  After all, it was a book of theories.  There wasn't actually any spells in it, but rather a description of rules and experiments on how auras work and why.  It described how one might manipulate an aura with magic, but traditionally magic users have very rarely been able to manipulate someone elses aura.  It did describe how one might tie two auras together, the consequences, and what one could gain.  Intimate did not begin to describe it.  Alexander had no intention of tying himself to this random, albeit powerful and pretty, woman.  Not permanently.  He had determined through this theory and his own knowledge of geomancy that a temporary version of the tie could be made.

""As I make the connection, our power will ignite and as the connection grows stronger, so will our power.  Normal people would begin to feel each others emotions, and eventually all sensations as well as thought.  That will not happen to us.  Our tie will grow only to a certain point, where we might share strong emotions.  After that we can move through the wall, hand in hand, and then when we seperate the tie will slowly unravel.  But we must remain in contact with each other for the tie to grow to full strength, and while moving through the wall if we are seperated it could kill us.""

Putting the book back he returned to her.  ""So, do you wish to do this?""  Alexander smiled and took his cloak off, hanging it up.  ""Ah, yes.  You wanted a display, to prove I can match your power.""  As he turned back he let his aura start to bleed through.  Having seen it in a mirror with his eyes he knew that it looked like electricity dancing across his skin, but to those that can only sense it they would feel what he did now.  The raw power that hummed underneath his skin, only a small amount was allowed to dance through the air.  It was unfortunate that the humming was for him alone.  But that electricity dancing all across his body was enough, Alexander could match her easily.  Containing it took a small effort, and he wiped his forhead as sneakily as possible when he put his cloak back on.  Everything had a cost, and power of that level had a cost he never felt like paying...Not anymore anyway.</div>"
20766,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-09 14:23:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Auras were strange things and their definition varied depending on the educator. Some scholars viewed auras as some kind of spiritual level, while others saw it as an after effect of study and practice in the arcane arts. To Clara, an aura was a type of residue from your very soul that mixed with your energy to make it distinctive and thoroughly connected to you as an individual. It wasn't simply a measurable amount of power, though many viewed it that way for it's concept was simple. Unlike Alexander, she didn't hide her aura but rather she <span class=""bb-i"">wore</span> it. Her aura wasn't anything unusual for someone with her talents, but it wasn't so weak that it couldn't be felt by those around her regardless of arcane knowledge. 

With something as personal as her own aura, Clara didn't like the idea of sharing it with someone else. There were secrets that she would rather keep between her and those involved. She seemed to relax more when he explained the details of what would be their approach to tying their auras together. ""So, feeling each other's emotions should be the most significant side effect?"" When their conversation arrived at the amount of danger that was in their plan, she drummed her fingers on the side of her tea cup. It would make sense that the barrier could destroy them if their combined abilities were to divide prematurely. Then again, she liked the risks involved in achieving passage through the barrier.
""I couldn't be more sure."" She replied confidently. The thrill of dying for a chance to understand mysteries that others wouldn't dare conceive, much less prove, was a simple choice for Clara. This wouldn't be the first time she appeared to be throwing caution to the wind. There were conditions that were worse than death.

 When Alexander removed his cloak talking about his aura, she knew that she would see something few had witnessed from him. She felt the soft hum that seemed to exist within the room increase and decided to close her eyes. Clara leaned forward with her chin resting in her hands to allow herself concentration. To be able to physically see auras wasn't an ability Clara possessed, but she could sort of 'see' them when her eyes were closed. It worked much like how those without sight could <span class=""bb-i"">see</span>, her other senses would be able to build a mental image for her. The corner of her mouth twitched for a moment then spread into a breathless smile and chills raced over her body. A sort of vision of electric pulsating bands of energy surging and undulating at a fixed point that she knew to be Alexander's body could be perceived. She experienced a prickling sensation over her cool pale skin like what one would experience whenever lightning was about to trike. ""Wonderful..."" She whispered keeping her eyes closed to enjoy this brief moment. It was unlike anything she could have imagined someone to posses. An aura with such power that seemed to be brought back and forth from awareness effortlessly. It was simply amazing. 

After several moments, her eyes snapped open showing an expression of giddy excitement and determination across her face. ""When do we start?""</div>"
20767,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-10 10:46:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Slightly giddy, like someone who had just felt the warmth of alcohol spread through their body, Alexander smiled.  It was addicting, the level of power he had sealed within, and right now it pushed outward, like his body was stifling it.  Release was all it wanted, and it fed him that incredible feeling for a little longer.  Too bad he was made of stronger stuff than that.  Experience had taught him that whenever you felt like this, it was generally because you had done something stupid, or were about to.  The moment passed and though he still felt the residual warmth of power, it no longer reached out to entice him.  Silently Alexander approached Clara.

""Immediately.""  Drawing a spell circle in the air between them was not as easy as he made it look.  It required precision, control, and an intimate knowledge of what he was drawing.  If Alexander attempted to draw part of the circle in the wrong order he would be unable to complete it, or worse it would mangle the spell and change it...often with disastrous results.  It was for this reason Geomancy had been abandoned in the Southern Isles.  Not practical in combat due to it's complexity and mental rigors, Runes were easier to draw, remember and even determine.  Discovering a rune that would allow you to use a certain magical effect was simple, combining them was like writing.  With proper grammer it was easy to create powerful spells.  Memorize these and quickly one had become powerful.  Or so it was for the lesser wizards.  Each of the thirteen had discovered a way to become more than someone with pre-packaged spells.  Alexander was no exception.  He could draw these circles in combat, and the math that came with determining the shape of a spell was not beyond him, though it still took weeks to create a basic circle.  This one was a shaping circle, and he gave it purpose through the runes he wrote in it, and around it.

As the circle came closer to completion both of their auras flared, recognizing the magic that attempted to control them.  Alexander did not have time to manage his own aura, and it started pushing past his enchantments and wards.  Holding his hand out, palm towards her in the middle of the circle he smiled, ""Take my hand if you mean it.""  It was now or never.  He could only hold this for so long before he would have to control his aura.  Burning ozone.  If it began to smell like that, this would have to stop.

His hand moved very fluidly, but she would hazard a guess that what he was doing wasn't easy. Such ability, she smiled watching the circle reach completion, but felt a very strange surge throughout her body and even her soul. With one hand up towards the center of the circle and the another facing her, Alexander spoke with a smile, ""<span class=""bb-i"">Take my hand if you mean it</span>"". He seemed to be thoroughly interested in this procedure as well. It was very possible that what was happening in this tent had never occurred before or if it did, it was unheard of in her land. Looking up at the now engaged circle then into his fiery daemonic eyes. Without a word, Clara's hand clapped into his. As soon as her hand made contact with his the circle hummed loudly and cracked with energy. The force she felt before was intensifying. Her free hand seemed to move up towards the circle of it's own accord and completing the loop that was being forged between them. 

Her aura felt like it was struggling not only against her, but against everything else. She never bothered trying to restrain it throughout her time of being a sorceress, so it behaved like a feral beast that had been caged for the first time sense it had been brought into existence. Clara closed her eyes tightly having a very difficult time making sense of the sensations she was experiencing due to the nature of the spell. She tried to <span class=""bb-i"">see</span> the process much like how her perceived Alexander's aura when he un-masked it. Two forces that were fighting to break free against the bonds of the spell was all she could gather at this point. Her hand gripped his tightly more for stability than anything. How long will it rage? Her aura had never known structure but only instinct. Clara's abilities were not spawned from something as rigid and controlled as the magic that was forcing it to bend at the moment. 

Though the whole experience was robbing her of her balance, but she refused to waiver under the forces of the spell. Slowly, she opened her eyes again. Above them something was swirling around the face of the circle but clearly not touching it. Their auras were becoming visible, which was something Clara had never seen before with her own eyes. The only reason she knew what she was looking at was due to the fact that she could feel the connection between her and her aura. It was now a vaporal substance wrapping it's self around what she knew had to be Alexander's. Her skin prickled as goose pimples formed up her arms. Then she looked back into Alexander's face with an excited expression. ""Can you see this?"" She asked, talking about the two manifestations swirling above them.</div>"
20769,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-13 08:06:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alexander found her aura started to form around him, but his eyes saw everything, despite her aura covering his body like a thick mist.  He had forced their auras to become entwined.  It was a fragile thing that required all of Alexander's concentration.  That and their connection.  He knew now, without a doubt, that holding this forced connection would be impossible if they didn't have physical contact.  With physical contact he could strengthen the connection, and as a result multiply their power.  This was very difficult.  Alexander almost laughed when she spoke.  He forgot that his aura did not normally take a form like this, like hers.  She would not have seen it, but indeed bits of his aura danced up and down her.  Then he looked up.  Recognition was immediate.  It had mentioned this phenomena.  During this process any who watched could see the two auras combine like this, or so the theory had mentioned as a possiblie side effect.  It was interesting to see them swirl together, back and forth.  The book had said that if this happened they would quickly combine and become another color, depicting the process the two would go through.  This did not happen above them.  The two ""auras"" Twisted in and around each other, stretching out like a string.  It grew longer and longer until the string snapped, and suddenly the auras were seperating, becoming their own entities once more.

""This is us.  Not permanent, as I told you.  Unfortunately it is difficult to maintain this...state of being.  I would suggest that we go now and you cast your spell that we may move through the dome.""  Alexander smiled, feeling suddenly elated.  It was her feeling.  This was exciting to her, and indeed he felt the same.  If it weren't that he was trying so hard to concentrate...no, that would have to wait for later.  ""You will have to guide me.  I cannot really see far through your aura and I do not have the concentration to spare to find the wall with my senses.  Of course, since we'll be holding hands the whole time, that shouldn't be an issue.""  Alexander just hoped that his concentration would help her.  After all, if he was affected by her aura in this way, and felt her emotions, he imagined his aura might make magic more difficult for her to control.  It was very excitable, another reason he did his best to keep it sealed away like he did.

<span class=""bb-i"">Do not fear the storm children.  It cannot harm us.  One of the great wizards is here.  There are only thirteen who claim his title.  The rain will fall but there will be no lightning.  The wind will blow nothing away but the storm, and the waves will only wet the sand.</span></div>"
20770,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-13 19:08:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Clara simply nodded keeping an almost uncomfortably tight grip on Alexander's hand. Her heart was thumping hard within her chest and a swirl of excitement raged through her mind. With her and Alexander's auras linked, she could hear a rhythmic hum, like a mantra of concentration in the back of her mind, but that was the least of her concerns right know. Alexander's aura flowed through her like a powerful waves of water, but also prickled with quick shots of energy. This alone was very dangerous. There was a new and terrifyingly strong power being shared with her. It was exotic and quick to react. Clara had to guide him by the hand while keeping herself somewhat composed in order to control her abilities. Her gaze went to the teacup left resting on the table. Why she looked at it was anyone's guess, but she quickly saw that this act was a mistake. Allowing her eyes to focus on something for too long wasn't a good idea. There was a low hum and it shattered within an instant. Too much energy ran through her at the moment.

They stepped out of the tent and she managed to keep her eyes down at the ground. Though she was still excited, she ran her own mantra through her mind in order to keep herself together enough to reach the barrier and cast her spell. Oddly enough, the mantra was more like a nursery rhyme or a old folk tale. It was recited often by the women who lived near the northern wilds. 

<span class=""bb-i"">There once was a bear as old as old
For many many stories were told
The beast had great eyes of gold
It waited for a hero bold

The years had past one by one
and no such hero ever come

pass on the song to young an old
for fear of the bear with eyes of gold</span>

The melody seemed to keep her focused while they walked among the dirt paths and bits of brush to get to the barrier. She only looked up to see the great mass of blue that hummed intimidatingly. Taking a deep breath, she decided to start her spell. Clara straightened up and stepped them both closer to the barrier. They were so close that bits of energy arced between them and the barrier. It was like the dome was greedily waiting for them to get too close in order for it to engulf them. With her free hand held high, she breathed some words low and under her breath. The volume of her voice wasn't what gave the spell it's strength but rather the determination and concentration of the caster. Her giddy excitement seemed to disappear while she did this. The air around their skin felt stuffy for a moment, then her free hand clinched tightly into a fist. The spell was to give them flesh as stone, but the combined energy of their auras made the material stronger and bright like crystal. Their shimmery exterior also glowed with energy. ""Go!"" She spoke pulling them both into the face of the barrier. The dome let out a loud crack then a loud but low sounding hum.</div>"
20771,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-15 01:47:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">She pulled him along like he was a small child.  Not that Clara was moving that fast, but Alexander was both unable to see very well and lost in his own little world.  At some point it seemed to him that he was calmed...but then he had never been excited.  Alexander thought with some small portion of his mind that this must of been her emotion.  Whatever it was, it helped him smooth the connection.  And that was when he noticed how much their emotions affected their auras.  It shouldn't have been suprising, he had observed them for years, but now that both auras were being forced into a rigid shape...it was incredible to see how they reacted to both persons emotions.  A shout.  Somebody shouted.  Alexander realized it had to have been Clara.  And suddenly they were moving again.  The barrier.  They walked into the barrier.  He hadn't even realized she had cast a spell.  At first they were winning.  Her spell was effective.  The barrier was pushed back and it bent around them to let them through.  A shockwave of force from where they had walked into it circled the whole dome, not that they could see.  But Alexander felt it, and knew that they had announced their presence.  

Then the Dome fought back.  He was not prepared for this.  It did more than absorb energy, it attempted to kill intruders with that energy.  His senses compared it to a lightning bolt.  Alexander had been struck by lightning before.  It was something a mage could survive, but to harness that much power was beyond a normal human.  The sound was comparable to having someone hit a gong next to your head.  Deafening.  He almost stumbled.  For some reason having her hand in his reassured him and he managed to keep his footing.  Alexander wondered if that was her emotion, but some small part of him told him that it was his...He would think about that later.  The connection was strong, but now he had excited it again.  It took all of his focus to keep it under control.  Then the second strike came.  The ringing in his ears made it hard to think, and now the connection was pushing at his mind...it would be released.  Alexander breathed deeply and squeezed her hand gently.  They would not fail.  An image came to mind and he used it to hold the tie.  The rebound from doing so was like a sledgehammer to the ribs.  There was no doubt in his mind he had at least two broken ribs now...and something told him that she probably did too.  The third strike hit and he wondered how she was possibly holding her spell against these incredibel attacks.  His mind was numb...Finally he could think again...feel again.

Alexander felt for the connection.  It was not hard to find, in fact it was still there despite his grasp on it gone.  But it was unstable.  His aura was flooding into the tie, overloading it.  The energy flowed through his arm into hers and back every second.  Like a heart beating.  This too was like being struck by lightning.  His arm burned and he could no longer move his hand, it would not let go of hers even if he wanted it to.  Fear.  Alexander swallowed it down, telling himself that he was capable of controlling this.  He had done it before, after all.  How many strikes had the dome hit them with, he wasn't sure, but Alexander no longer felt anything with his senses except for this.  Somehow he doubted they were still in the wall and had made it through, but he could not check right now.

<span class=""bb-i"">The great wizard stood on the dock alone, facing a storm that had everybody scared.  Only the wealthy had evacuated.  Nobody else could afford to, nor had the time.  They trusted him to stop this, but he knew better.  The great wizard smiled sadly and raised his arms...levitating off the ground as his aura became visible with power.  ""Goodbye.""</span>

Repairing the second seal was difficult, but once he finished their auras were easy to control.  He could not close the first seal while the connection existed, but that was not enough power to overwhelm him, or her.  Realizing that he was sweating and leaning on Clara, Alexander smiled.  She was crazy.  But she had saved him so much time in solving the puzzle of the dome.  Able to move his hand again he squeezed hers gently and closed his eyes.  Gods, he was tired.</div>"
20772,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-15 03:05:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">One hand held Alexander's and the other held a death grip over her protection spell. In a normal casting situation, the spell would hold for a brief period then fade. Clara couldn't afford for that to happen. Once she felt the spell weaken, she would cast it again keeping the spell in a continuous loop of protection. This excessive spell-work would have been a very poor decision if the situation were different. A continuous looping of spells could drain a person in a matter of minutes, but Clara had her powers combined with Alexander's, which allowed her to continue this dangerous process. Sadly, their shared candle was burning at both ends. The barrier was eating away at her energy filled protection spell and she was burning up energy in order to keep it in a loop. 

The first strike made her cry out in pain. It had attacked them. It was not a reaction she had thought about. She had theorized that the barrier would simply try to eat away at them like some sort of acidic substance, but for it to strike them like that. It was almost like the dome had a form of consciousness. Her spell obviously could not block energy bolts very well. It was a feeling of white hot fire racing over them but not quite touching the flesh. That showed that her spell was still working properly. 

Her mind cried out and her heart quivered, but she stood stubbornly against the attacks like on old tree weathering a horrible storm. Clara's lip withstood a hard bite from it's master then she repeated the incantation in shaky voice. Without it, they would be eaten alive by the barrier. More strikes came and each one seemed to pull away at her mind and body. She couldn't think, her arms felt like molten stubs of mutated flesh. She couldn't feel Alexander's hand in hers, but she could feel their connection still pulsating through them. Breathing deeply, she focused all her efforts to keep moving forward and continue to loop the spell, but fatigue was getting the best of her. Clara's voice grew weaker and weaker to the point were she seemed to whisper the spell like a sad attempt at a prayer to whatever deity could hear her.

The young mage's body felt like it endured some physical blows as well, but at that point, she felt rather numb. Clara's legs felt like wet leaves but somehow they continued to press onward almost like they no longer needed directions from her mind. Parts of her cried for her to stop, tried reasoning with her. They would live if they turned around, stop fighting this. It hurts. It hurts. Thankfully, she ignored those cries and bit her lip again with a sick grin spreading across her tortured face. The pain would eventually go away either when they successfully reach the other side of the barrier or it would end in their death. Quitting seemed like a ridiculous solution. This thought seemed to calm the voices and give her a better reason to push on.

It took Clara several minutes to realize that they had passed through. Her lips moved weak and wordlessly with incantations, while her free hand bled from her nails embedding themselves into her palm. She couldn't feel her crying body, but could only feel the torturous throbbing of her mind like a thunderous pulse. Trails of tears begun to dry on her cheeks though had wasn't aware of ever shedding them. It must have been a result of the pain they had endured. That's right, Alexander was with her. Unable to open her eyes, she felt him lean against her. His body, like hers was cold and sweaty with fatigue. They both seemed to sink to the ground, but continued to hold hands. At that point, Clara was so numb she wasn't sure she even had the ability to loosen her grip.</div>"
20773,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-16 02:49:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Alexander realized suddenly that they were sitting awkwardly.  It was almost comical, two powerful spellcasters sitting together like school-children.  The worst part was that he was leaning on her.  She didn't seem to mind it, but it bothered him.  Alexander was supposed to be an all powerful wizard, yet sealing away his aura left him only the small amount of energy required to perform geomancy...This was more power than he had used in a long time and it had him drained mentally.  Physically he was recovering quickly, since his first seal was still undone.  Her numbness flooded through their connection to him.  It was like he felt nothing.  Desperately, so desperately he wanted to feel something.  Of all creatures it was humans that desired this the strongest, the desire for closeness, yet they all too often pushed their own kind away.

Without thinking Alexander sat on the ground next to her and pulled her to lean against him, moving his arm over her head and around her so that they still held hands, but not in an awkward position.  Resting his arm against her stomach he squeezed her hand gently, letting her know that it was over.  They could relax and recover now.  ""Go to sleep.""  Alexander whispered against her ear, as if it was completely normal.  Exhaustion came over him in waves, but staying awake was simple.  He would not have any trouble with that.  Many years of practice had allowed him to develop the ability to stay awake for days at a time while preforming essential research or even during travel.  This was no different.  Alexander would be able to stay awake for hours while she slept.  Then she could watch over him.

As the numbness wore off and she drifted into sleep Alexander realized just how much she leaned on him.  The position he had put them in, left her in his embrace.  It had seemed so natural, and even now their connection made it seem that way.  Yet he realized it was a first for him, that it wasn't normal.  Alexander could only imagine how strange that would've felt, even with their connection, if they hadn't been tired.  Hopefully she wouldn't be too upset with the stranger that embraced her when she woke up.  Knowing he should take this time to analyze their surroundings but not wanting to wake her Alexander looked around slowly, trying to be as still as possible.  This was not the temple.  This was not even their realm.  Alexander did not want to think about this now.  After they were both rested they could figure out this...whatever it was.</div>"

In her state of extreme fatigue, she really didn't care. A gentle squeeze and a whisper caressed her weary mind. It was over, and now she could rest. Those kind words seemed to echo over and over while she slipped away into a state of dreaming. It was always strange how even though a person could be exhausted in every sense of the word, yet the mind was always stirring with dreams when sleep came.

 There was a soft chatter of women and men. They were all enjoying the first day of the spring season. Spring in the northern country wasn't very warm but the sun was at least attempting to melt the thick ice and snow. Children, who had spent too much time holed up within their homes, were running in almost every direction. ""I know you're excited little ones, but don't venture into the woods. We aren't the only ones enjoying the better weather."" warned an old woman. The children simply ignored her and continued with their games. One of the children, a small girl stopped running and pointed towards the woods. ""What is that?"" Something strange could be heard from the woods. It was a low hissing noise that blended with the sounds of rushing wind. Then someone cried, ""Take shelter, no enter your homes! Quickly!""  Several of the villagers scooped up their young and began their retreat. All the doors slammed shut and windows locked. Mist filled the valley and all was silent. 

It took several hours for the mist to lift and even longer for the people to feel safe to venture out from their homes. ""We were spared it seems. That was no normal mist."" spoke one villager looking around as if something could jump out at any moment. The same woman that warned the children came out and wrung her apron nervously. ""Did any of you see a little girl? Dark raven hair? Please tell me you took her inside!"" The other adults froze. ""We saw no such child."" 
The woman fell to her knees and began to sob. ""Everyone, look for signs of a struggle or tracks. Help this woman!""
They searched for weeks but the child was never found.

Clara could feel something warm holding her. Her eyes opened with blurred vision. She almost jerked, but thankfully she already had an idea what was so close to her. Glancing sideways, she saw parts of Alexander's shoulder and arm. They were alive and appeared to have suffered minor physical damage. She raised her head and looked up into his face then down at the way they were sitting together. ""Well, this is..surprisingly comfortable."" She joked stretching her legs. Her bright eyes darted all around them. ""Where are we? How long was I unconscious?"" This wasn't the southern temple. Everything about the place felt very strange.</div>"
20775,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-16 06:52:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">From what he could tell it wasn't one of the many realms of demons and or gods.  At least, any of those he had read of.  If they did exist, these other realms would be so many that it would be impossible for a mortal to know of all of them.  Even an immortal, which he knew did exist, would probably not know of all the realms that possibly existed.  This one...if it was the realm of some god then it was perfect.  A utopia with fauna of all sorts, from what he could tell.  It felt perfect, even from here.  Alexander cast his senses forward to confirm it.  Indeed it felt amazing.  Demons would not want to inhabit a realm like this, it would make it's inhabitants too happy.  There was the question of how large this realm was, or if he could only sense the portion the wall surrounded.  Alexander couldn't possibly tell.

When she woke it took some control to not move away and pretend that he had not been supporting her the whole time.  Alexander looked away to hide his face as she looked him over.  When he no longer felt he was blushing he looked back at her.  ""Four or five hours.  It's hard to tell here.  I have no idea where we are, it doesn't seem to be...anywhere that I've come across in my research.""  But then, Alexander was not that old.  Not like many of the Wizards of the Southern Isles.  No, he was only 31.  Rather young for someone in his position.

Blinking away the exhaustion that threatened to consume him he tried to focus on her.  That seemed to help a little.  Hopefully she couldn't tell how tired he was.  More importantly Alexander hoped she didn't realize that he was focusing on her to avoid falling asleep.  Distractions, distractions.  Looking into her eyes was like staring at Gold.  It was bright, and seemed to shield her from someone peering into her soul.  Her black hair was a little messed up because of their traveling through the barrier and then her short sleep.  Alexander expected she would want to wash when they had the chance, and in this realm it seemed water would not be hard to find.  Food too, was probably not that hard to find, though predators usually followed.

""How did you sleep?""  At one point Clara had been shaking slightly.  It was barely noticable, but whatever she had dreamed of...Well, his connection with her did help.  He could tell that it was a strange dream, but not why it bothered her or what it was about.  Alexander realized then that they were still in contact, which was why the connection was still strong, but it had not grown stronger, and he suspected that it would begin to unravel as planned when they seperated.  For now he did not want to fight it but hold on.  It may yet prove useful.  Thankfully he did not have to focus on it to control it.  Especially since only the necessary portion of his aura was available to it and them.</div>"

The area appeared to be quite peaceful and bountiful. The air was normal if not more pleasant to take in. Parts of her yearned to explore it. To roam about it and discover it's secrets. ""Such an odd place."" She mused then felt her hand twitch within his, which caused her to look back into his face. There were vague memories of him before she slept. His gentle hand moving her to fit nicely in his arms, then his warm but weary breath on her ear telling her to rest. This made her eyebrows raise and a grin spread over her mouth. Such kindness towards a stranger. Thinking back, she wondered how odd it would have been to see two strangers randomly meeting and agreeing to bond themselves in order to see the unknown. It seemed insane yet, she had done crazy things before.

 He asked her how well she slept and Clara chuckled, brushing hair out from her face with her free hand. ""As well as one can after our ordeal."" Her dreams were something she didn't like to share. Then again, she wasn't used to having someone by her side for this long. Companions for someone like her were in very short supply. Who would be interested in helping a sorceress with her so called 'reputation'. Much that was known of her didn't speak well. Her dark abilities and her place of residence were enough to scare off most. Clara's homeland was one of a cold and harsh climate which didn't entice many to come visit. The solitude was something she rather enjoyed, but of course a lady wouldn't mind the comfort of the palace. The title would be an interesting addition as well. She would also be granted access to materials that would otherwise be difficult to acquire on her own. 

Her bright, but oddly solid looking eyes surveyed her companion. Though he seemed to be putting on a face of contentment, she wondered if he slept as she did. His eyes spoke differently. Though exotic and other-worldly, they showed that he was indeed fatigued. Alexander's unusual eyes had the look of fire before, but now seemed to have dimmed. ""Did you not rest?"" she asked while continuing to watch him with a grin. He must have been watching their surroundings while she was resting and for that, she was thankful. ""Do wizards of the southern isles sleep at all?"" Clara joked while scooting away from him a little more. She looked at their joined hands still feeling his and her auras pulsating in unison. Was it safe to separate now? They had accomplished the task by traveling through the wall, so the need for them to remain linked was no longer there. If Alexander had been awake this whole time, he could have separated from them as soon as they successfully crossed over, but he didn't. The grin widened slightly as she thought it out. Did he enjoy being so close to such a strange women as herself? This made her chuckle once again. ""Shall we separate or should we remain like conjoined twins??"" It was funny how she could joke like this while they both sat in a strange unknown land and had almost gotten annihilated.</div>"
20777,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-18 01:35:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Smiling at her joke he responded, ""No.  You were tired, and someone had to keep watch.  This place may appear to be a paradise, but at the very least, whomever put that dome in place may have come for us.""  Not that it would've mattered anyway.  She had been exhausted and so had he.  Even releasing his aura completely, Alexander knew the price for survival might've been too high.  Thankfully nobody came.  Alexander  let go of her hand and leaned back so that he was lying on the ground.  The soft grass muted the hard ground against his back and his exhaustion made it easy to ignore.  ""It felt right to hold on"" to you.  He didn't say that.  Alexander wasn't ready to think about that part, instead he chalked it up to being part of the connection.  It probably did help push him in her direction.  ""I don't suppose that it matters too much.  Do you want to?""  Letting go didn't seem to have any immediate effects.  Close proximity combined with a strong connection...It would be a short while before the connection started to unravel, though he had delayed the effect.

His eyes were heavy and it was hard to pay attention to what she was saying.  At this point Alexander wasn't sure she was talking at all.  Still he stared at her as his eyelids dipped lower, trying not to ignore her.  His hand he left outstretched and open, in case she decided to reconnect with him.  It would be her decision.  Sleep finally caught him and his head rolled gently to rest on the grass, soft against his cheek.  Alexander hoped with his last waking thoughts for dreamless sleep.  There was no need to dream of things that had long since passed.

<span class=""bb-i"">The storm buffeted him and the buildings around him, stripping skin from his face and arms as it tore the walls off houses.  But there he stayed, the last hope for thousands who could not flee.  His aura did not protect him, as he used it all casting a spell.  The great wizard was known for his ability to use runes together, in combinations longer and greater than ever before.  As the storm threatened to tear him and his city apart he drew a rune on every building that housed a person with his mind.  Aura fading, the great wizard lowered his arms and stood until he blew away in the wind, dust to dust.</span>

It had been a long time since he had dreamed of his teacher.  But lately his thoughts had strayed more and more to the man that had taught him the basics of magic, before becoming one of the greats.  Alexander had followed in those footsteps, though he had done it in a way his teacher would not have approved.  Now he used a magic that was his alone in order to hide what he had done.  There was no reason to use large amounts of power when complicated magic could take it's place.  Unlike the other Wizards of the Southern Isles, Alexander did not take on many jobs.  He took only the jobs that required both incredible detail and power.  He substituted power for time and magical research.  Geomancy gave him this ability.

He opened his eyes slowly, wondering how it could be true.  The boy Alexander would not let him free so easily.  Senses coming to him, and suddenly he knew.  It wasn't time, they weren't ready.  Stronger than before, but not enough to defeat him.  Alexander must have made a mistake.  He sat up slowly, feeling this body and enjoying it.  Truly enjoying it.  His aura was weak, sealed away and there was no way to undo it now.  Something else.  Turning his head towards her he grinned broadly.  They had connected, though it didn't feel permanent.  How interesting.  Was she important to him?  The eyes that were once demonic and catlike in appearance now seemed normal, though the bright yellow iris' that betrayed both his presence and his power were the only thing that gave him away.  Nobody would recognize his sign anymore anyway.  It had been too long.

""It is always nice to have a beautiful companion.  I hope you don't mind me asking your name, Alexander doesn't really play well with others.""</div>"
20778,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-18 02:40:00,oOWonderKinOo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Feeling the warmth of his hand leaving hers, she watched him lay down and rest. Many wizards disliked sleep. Some believed that it made them vulnerable in a spiritual since. Others with a more obvious mind set worried that they left their bodies open for attack. Even Clara was not fond of resting unless she had prepared some form of defense. Her golden eyes went over Alexander's resting body several times. The hand that held hers for what seemed like ages lie palm up towards her. It looked like such an innocent gesture, but Clara didn't take his hand again. Instead she continued to look around him. It was odd to see such a powerful wizard sleeping like he was, but it also showed he was human. This was a relief to her. It was always easier to believe that those of power were indestructible beings incapable of doing wrong. Seeing them vulnerable helped banish those idiotic ideas. 

Clara winced feeling a stinging sensation in her other hand. Her palm was bleeding again. She looked down to see it had scabbed over some but moving it caused the wound to open. Sighing through her nose she studied the scabs curiously. Healing magic wasn't her strong suit and her energy was too low to even attempt it. Instead, she chose to wrap it by tearing part of her clothes. For the journey to the barrier, Clara had worn a travel tunic that reached down to the mid thigh and under that some travel pants and boots. Her tunic once had sleeves, but she quickly removed them after suffering the heat of the southern climate. She ripped part of the end of her tunic and began to cover her hand that best she could. Thankfully the wound was a small one. Many animals had an excellent sense of smell, thus a bleeding wound would easily make someone a target for hungry beasts. 

While she was crudely dressing her small wound, she was humming the same song she used as a mantra for concentration. It was a simple melody and held some importance to her. ""old as old"" She sang softly while finishing up her work. Then she saw Alexander move. Something, maybe her connection with him, or her gut told her something was different. Hairs on the back of her neck stood up and she stared at him looking almost like a spooked animal watching whatever disturbed them. He spoke to her. Her eyes went over him several times. There was one physical difference to Alexander, and that was his eyes. He asked her name. Curiosity boiled up within her causing her to smirk and tilt her head slightly at him. This was an interesting twist. What secret had just been revealed to her?
""Thank you.."" She breathed smiling pleasantly. ""Didn't he tell you my name? Or do you two not exchange in conversation often?"" It wasn't often that someone was greeted by some one they've met before like they haven't met before. Did something else reside within Alexander? Or, was he broken like many witch or wizard who dabbled too closely with a maddening substance. It was anyone's guess at this point and that made it all the more exciting.</div>"
20779,Spell-weaver~ 1x1 Witch/Wizard  (Changed the name.),IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76336-spell-weaver-1x1-witch-wizard-changed-the-name,['1x1'],2015-02-18 03:06:00,TakeoEndo,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""A smart companion.  How nice.  It is refreshing to see young people finding companions with personality and not just using them for their body.""  At this he looked her over pointedly, suggesting that she was Alexander's lover.  ""Alexander did not deign to tell me your name, since he refuses to talk to me at all.  It's rather rude of him.  But then, I cannot say I blame him.  Ever since our last arguement he slammed that door shut, you could say.""   He could feel her aura, weak like his.  That boy Alexander could have used more power.  Should have.  Now he left them both vulnerable.  Sometimes being too cautious had it's price.  He pushed a compulsion through their connection.  It wasn't strong.  He didn't think it would have to be.  With her aura being weak and the connection allowing him to bypass natural defenses the compulsion should come on strong.  It would probably work.  The biggest problem is that it only encouraged her to do things she already wanted to do.  That meant that if she didn't like being close to Alexander she wouldn't get close...if she did it might help push her closer.  This would be good for him.  For now he had it disguised as a desire for Alexander to return to this body.  Simple enough.  It would cut his time short though.

Alexander felt it.  A small pull.  The water felt nice.  It would be good to go to sleep here and let his head soak...He laughed in this dream.  Alexander would not fall for this.  Standing up in the pool he looked over at the shore.  A person stood there.  She was beautiful.  Powerful.  But she was not complete.  He could not entice Alexander with a woman whose name he didn't know.  But if that man could learn her name Alexander would have a much harder time leaving.  Or so he thought.  Alexander shook his head, not wanting to find out either way.  He had to leave.  Find his way back up to the surface while the other was still weak and seal him away.

""It's fine.  You can tell me your name the next time we meet.""  He looked her in the eyes, his yellow eyes flashing like lightning.  This was a promise to her.  They would meet again, and when they did he expected her to tell him his name.  Hopefully he could see her at full strength when that time came.  Having a lover is nice, but having a powerful lover made everything better.  He moved closer to her, attempting to sit next to her.  ""Until then, darling.""

Alexander's eyes changed back to the demonic slits that they normally were as electricity danced up and down his body for a few seconds.  The other had relinquished control willingly.  That was bad, but all he could do was break this connection with her and seal him completely.  His only answer.  Then Alexander realized that he was sitting close to her.  Earlier she had moved away from him.  Somehow he doubted she moved closer.  What had he said to her?  Did he tell her the truth?  No.  He wouldn't.  How did he try to manipulate her, get her to tell him her name?  Somehow Alexander didn't think she said anything.  For now he would let her speak first, rather than cause himself more trouble.</div>"

This assumption was not uncommon to her. She was nice to look upon, which could either lead people to do foolish things or it could lead people to assume she was some sort of evil fleshy sorceress. Either way, it didn't matter to her. If someone where to fall for her looks and do something foolish that was their decision. If someone was to write her off as some beautiful demoness that should be avoided, that was good as well. It would leave her with less annoying people to deal with. 
Alexander obviously didn't like communicating with his other. There had to be a reason for this. Such an interesting puzzle. Was it worth solving? Usually, Clara didn't like peering into the personal lived of others. This was simply because she did not like that sort of treatment from others, but she very rarely had people nosing into her business. 

The other moved closer to her, but she didn't move away. She didn't have any energy to repel him with magic at the moment which meant if things got bad she would have to resort to a physical retaliation. The others eyes looked into her golden ones and she continued to smirk at him. If he wanted her dead, she would be. He wanted something else. This curious behavior. Was this how demons worked? She read about demons getting what they wanted through trickery and manipulation. This would also explain Alexander's peculiar eyes. 

Alexander's body sparked with little jolts of energy then his eyes returned to their usual demonic appearance. He seemed shocked at his upright position. Clara continued to smile at him trying not to sound amused at his confusion. The whole situation left her with wild curiosity coursing through her mind. Should she pry? Will he tell her? Why would he? She is a stranger. Just a travel companion. Then again, they both almost died earlier. Perhaps that would be enough for someone to feel comfortable with divulging secrets. She thought about the situation in reverse for a moment. Would she tell him her secrets even after what they have been through? Probably not. There was a silence that seemed to last for quite some time before Clara spoke. ""You called me darling."" She chuckled unable to contain her amusement.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center"">The Spell-weaver competition:

In the land of Lorelei there is an opening for court sorcerer/sorceress. Many gifted witches and wizards have come to apply for the role of royal court wizard. It's a pretty cushy job and it boosts their name across the realms. The task is to aid a small temple in the southern marshes that seemed to be caught in what appears to be an impenetrable dome. No one can see within and no one has yet to emerge from it. The spell-caster's job is to rid the temple of the dome and thus proving they are the most gifted and powerful in the land.</div></div>"

Well, I think the catch is that they would have to combine their efforts to create an energy coating strong/thick enough for the barrier to take time to absorb it. That way, in theory, it should allow them to pass through without getting annihilated by the barrier. It also makes them sort of vulnerable upon entering the interior of the barrier and it gives my character a thrill kick. XD

We can develop the plot to get to that point if you want to spend more time outside of the barrier.

Would it be a pre-existing world or a crafted world? If it was made by a powerful conjurer then maybe they would be using the energy from the barrier to create something else within it. They would also be leaving key things out like controlled weather or wind. 

Or maybe a place in another country that has an area that amplifies magic but the effect can only be achieved when conducting a large amount of energy like the barrier. 

I'm just throwing some ideas out. I like that it's a place that amplifies magic, but changes the rules. I guess what I'm asking is the world demonic looking? Does it look like a typical area like a country side or is it a desolate place?</div>"

I'm not sure that it needs to be demonic per say.  It would be more entertaining if it was a paradise to them.  If it looked amazing but was actually really dangerous that would be awesome.  It could be a powerful conjurer that is trying to make a world for himself as well as some sort of artifact to maintain both it and the barrier when he dies so that it continues to exist.</div>"

Truly. It touched him that she would be so kind. A sudden meep in the distance was heard, but as sebastian looked back, nothing was revealed. Shrugging it off he looked back to the two girls. ""Well that most have been a drag, we were busy fighting in the front lines and being general bosses... except I sort of went on a rampage because of our little cub scout over here ditching me like you.... I guess wise minds think alike, and what not"" he generally blared at them in tenacious jubilance.</div>"

They had a guild, she ran. She formed her own guild, she ran. It seemed like she was the type to run from fears then gave them. Sebastian wished he could do such a thing. To give up and releave himself of all troubles merely by getting away from all the strife and pain,merely starting anew. But unlike them, he was faithful and had obligations. Obligations he planned to fulfill. This was how he felt within, but sebastian wasn't one to lash out his insecurities or rant his anger. He was the gentle giant, calm and easygoing. Perhaps this was yet another obligation.... ""well I hope you though, because it's harder to leave here""</div>"

Considering the two girls did not even know his father was still around, sebastian wasn't about to trouble them with his minor issues.

Repeat the game has been beaten.</span> Is what echoed through the world of Aincrad two months ago. Now the heroes of the game and the people who had also been trapped in there are back in the real world. After two years of being in the game the ones trapped in the game that were in school are returning to a school made just for those that survived SAO. This is their new adventure, outside the game.

So HEY! I'm booksmusicanime, or Books! So this has been created because the roleplay known as <span class=""bb-i"">Sword Art Online: Reboot II</span> has offically finished with the final group of people defeating the game. Now our characters have returned to the real world to deal with normal everyday life. But now the kids of the game are faced with a new challenge. Catching up in school...XD Yea this is now the characters are outside SAO and we're all going to a school made for kids that survived SAO. And yes there will be a new game implemented later in this. So now FOR OUR AWESOME RULES!!!

1. NO GODMODDING! I say this in every RP I have created and I still find godmoders on my RPS.
2. Don't be overpowered. I want everyone to be fair and equal
3. DO NOT control a character that isn't yours. I hate when people do this and if I catch you doing this even once I will not be nice.
4. Please once you have finished your CS wait for me to accept it! I don't want people who I haven't accepted to post!
5. NO MAIN CHARACTERS PLEASE! This is a world where the main characters from the anime/manga do not exist.
6. Warn me when you will be gone so I can catch you up. I hate when people disappear without telling me. I've lost almost half a roleplay due to that.
7. Be nice. Even I do it sometimes but if you decide to become a class A jerk just leave or once you realize what you've done apologize to the person you were a jerk to. I want everyone to feel welcome.
8. Your character must stay be able to be in school. If not then you will be a helper somewhere in the school and we will have many meet-ups outside of the school setting.
9. You HAVE to be your character from the old RP. Unless you're new then you can make a character. But ONE CHARACTER ONLY, unless given permission by me.
10. Keep it PG-14 people! Anything more please fade to black or take it to a DM.
11. There are only limited spots! No ifs and or buts, unless I trust that you won't disappear half way through the rp.
12. No fourth-wall breaking! I see you doing this and I will boot you from the RP. Meaning no going out of character to refer to yourself as your character. You can however bring up stuff from any of the last three versions before this (yes there were three.)
13. And most importantly have fun! I don't like it when people are downers so if you're down just trust me you'll be cheered up and having fun again in no time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> Y
<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Powerful psi-tech and dimensional manipulation, with primitive manipulation of time and a total lack of further advancement. They cannot time travel, I assure you.

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> Their homeworld, a massive ball of dust and rock, is protected with only the thinnest of atmospheres. Massive spires cluster around areas of seemingly minimal importance. Craters are not uncommon. The thin atmosphere allowed countless objects from the void to slam into the planet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span>
The Cel’s external appearance has changed little from the sample used to produce their species. They are tall, thin, fair skinned things that lack any especially strange variations from the human precursors.
The most striking differences come in their internal organs. They do not require oxygen, food, or water, being capable of surviving entirely on various forms of energy. They include most forms of electromagnetic radiation, and the psionic energies of other lifeforms. It’s not uncommon to see Cel as vampiric creatures. One would be perfectly content to consume the life of another to sustain themselves, were they without other sustenance.
On the subject of energy, Cel generate and manipulate energy with masterful ease. Their minds are finely crafted things that allow the production of great psionic feats. They express little concern regarding the flow of time, thanks to a combination of excellent medical care and advanced technology. Most forego extensive physical training in favour of practicing shooting mind bullets, but there is a certain level of natural leanness that comes with being a Cel.
They possess lips, two eyes, hair, and all of what one would expect from close relatives of humans. Hair colours tend to be dark. Blacks, browns, and so on. Eye colours, in contrast, are often bright, and what one might call dazzling. It’s suiting that such an aesthetically inclined race possesses such graceful appearances.

<span class=""bb-b"">Government Type:</span> An unusually efficient feudal empire. The emperor or empress sits atop their throne at the desolate homeworld and governs those issues which affect the entire empire, while vassals and vassals of vassals keep themselves occupied with less important occurrences. 

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
A mere hundred Cel awoke from the Great Slumber more than five thousand years ago. Their planet, ravaged and broken, was a barren place where no other species dwelled. It was fortunate that other species were not necessary to survive. Long nights were spent around fires fueled on the soul, and long days were spent scrambling through dust and ash. Spires, impenetrable and ancient, served as a constant reminder that this was not their world. The Cel grew up with two maxims: There is no life. There was life.
They never had to evolve. They had no records of a time before being an enlightened lot. Every Cel, in a most peculiar way, seemed to have awoken with total knowledge of how to control their psionics, a myriad of machines they had never seen, and more that would take entire books to detail. They were not a lot who found themselves particularly concerned with the world around them. Rocks and dust and impenetrable ruins were the only things around, aside from other Cel. Their clothing was all that they owned, and eventually that would degrade and whither away. There was nothing to do except enjoy the company of each other. Nothing changed, not ever. Well, nothing changed until something did, infact, change.
A single tribe vanished. It was not something anyone took note of because, at first, all assumed that tribe was just sitting still, or traveling a lonely path in some particularly desolate places. It was not until there had been no sign of the lost tribe for a total of fifty years that anyone paid attention. Those who took notice investigated the paths that the missing tribe had walked. People often moved between tribes, and walking the same roads for so long forced one to memorize them. It took a mere six years to discover what caused them to vanish. 
In place of the lost tribe was a new spire. Unlike the others, it did not have a hide of impenetrable metals. This spire was a smooth, semi-transparent things. Those who discovered it could see winding steps leading from its base to a peak that disappeared into the starry sky. An entrance lay wide open, simple double doors comprised of a hard material they had never encountered before. It was brownish, and decorated with darker lines that traveled in a vertical pattern. The great spiral staircase carried them high above the ground. Some found that they did not have the heart to continue, and had to stop. So massive was the structure that it took a days’ time to reach the summit.
At the summit, those who made it all the way were bathed in light. All around them was a great, celestial map of their solar system. They knew these words, moons and planets and stars. They knew what they meant, too. The lost tribe appeared to be lost forever, but this tower was something new and valuable. It was filled with information, sustenance, and space for every Cel on the planet. Over the many years of aimless wandering, the Cel had reproduced and grown. There were a good 2000 of them now. The tribe that discovered the tower came to a consensus very quickly. Half of their number, a good fifty, would stay with the tower and watch over it. The other half would seek out other tribes and direct them to the tower. 

Skip ahead a century. Every Cel lived in and around the tower, feeding off energy it emitted and pondering why it had appeared. The cleverest among them took on the monumental task of reading through the countless documents that seemed to be stored in a great databank within the tower. As far as they could tell, this was a library. Still, the lost tribe was still gone. It would be forgotten over time.

Skip ahead another century. The Cel are no longer detached from their existence, or at least not as badly as before. They understand the need for material objects because of what they have read.
Skip ahead fifty years. A star falls from the sky and slams into the library, punching cleanly through it, rather than toppling it. Two hundred Cel die. They had begun to learn of combat and war, and those who specialized in using their psionics for defense and attack investigated. This was not the first star to fall. Twenty years prior, the stars had lit up and fallen with disturbing regularity. The wisest Cel believed something called a war was happening beyond their world. The stars, more often than not, released Cel-shaped creatures made of gleaming material, not unlike the impenetrable spires. They tried to kill Cel, and were put down, then dissected. None had ever hurt the library, but there was a first time for everything. As Cel warriors converged on the most recent star to fall, six more stars landed at the summit of the library. This was an unprecedented event.
Those who remained at the library were not knowledgeable when it came to using their minds for battle. They fell to the metal creatures and their weapons, things the Cel barely understood, and had not even conceived until witnessing them.

Twenty years later, the Cel lived on, despite this invasion of their most sacred treasure. Their numbers were crippled, and those who now lived were either warrior or scholar, but at least they lived. Now, they had new things to dissect and study. The great library had been damaged, but the contraptions that the metal creatures came to ground in were relatively undamaged. Some, anyway. It took a rough century of recovery and study to figure out what the hell anything was. They saw more contraptions (Not stars, for they had grown out of such foolish thinking.) descend, but they always reached far away lands that the Cel didn’t care for anymore.

The Machine Men feared the glass tower. It was filled with creatures who looked like their ancestors, and fought in a manner that shattered everything they thought they knew about organics. Their broken people united on the far side of this desert world. It was mineral rich, and totally lacking in life. It would have been perfect, if not for the one native species that had felled far too many Machine Men for comfort. The mechanical ones prospered over their modest domain for the two centuries following, always monitoring the glass tower with cautious hope that the Cel within would simply die out. It was a terrifying and panic-inducing thing when, rather than dying out, they used the knowledge in the glass tower and the corpses of Machine Men ships and soldiers to construct their own devices. The Cel refused to be stamped out. They responded to every exterminator team the same as they responded to scouting parties in the first days of planetfall. The organics flung great bolts of psionic energy and tore them apart.

The Machine Men and Cel sat in their stalemate for some time. They simply stared at each other from afar, nervous and twitchy. As knowledge grew, both sides attempted more drastic methods of exterminating the other. First, small armies of warriors would be slain at the gates of Machine Men cities. Then, Machine Men would be ripped apart and turned into scrap at the gates of the glass tower. Cel try to summon a psionic storm, Machine Men snipers foil them. Machine Men try to launch a missile into the glass tower, Cel direct it into space with portals. The only change in pace- The great break in the monotony came in the form of nuclear retribution. The Machine Men were mad with paranoia. They unleashed a salvo of missiles against the Cel, and the Cel redirected them once more, but this time they turned them upon one of the great spires. Over time, the scholars and teachers had begun to question the presence of the eternal structures that had been with them since their awakening. Their plan succeeded. One of the spires was cracked open, and it began broadcasting a distress signal to creatures no longer present. They would not come, but Machine Men and Cel would.

The Cel got to the spire first, and they looted all the knowledge it contained. The bloody war that was fought over the remaining spires was the worst that the Cel would see in all their years, and perhaps the bloodiest they would ever have. It took a hundred Machine Men to kill a Cel, but every Cel was precious, and Machine Men were not. They could be manufactured by the thousands. In the end, the Cel would be relying on the technology stolen from the first spire, and now many others, to win the war. The Machine Men were ready to deal with psionic bullshit, yes, but they were in no way prepared for the full force of the technology found in the spires. How strange it would have been to any other species to witness! The Cel learned how to manipulate time and create pocket dimensions before they learned how to build starships.

The Machine Men fell... with time. The Cel committed unspeakable atrocities to end the war, though. Their people had become an inquisitive, bright race before the endless rivalry with the Machine Men. The all-consuming conflict turned them into conquerors and dictators. With the secrets of technology available, they ripped open their planet for its resources and made a great harvest. No longer were they doomed to be nomads, now they were rulers. The Machine Men had taken the lives of Cel, yes, but they had also provided the means for advancement. The Cel would forgive them long after they had gone extinct. They set to the task of making order out of this ruinous planet. They constructed dark, sleek void ships with crystal cores. They built cities around the spires, and a capitol around the glass tower. They refined their understanding of time and space to the point of weaponizing it. Perhaps the Cel did not have a great understanding of sciences grounded in the material universe, but none could question their power of psionics, time, and dimensions. Their cities were unassailable, dark fortresses citadels. Their ships were looming, black war machines. Their weapons were their minds, and potent energy blades that cut through armour and flesh with ease. Their armour was lightweight, shadowy, and bolstered with shields produced by manipulation of space.

The Cel ascended into the void and laid claim to planet after planet, tightly gripping five solar systems, then ten, then twenty. Their expansion finally grinded to a halt after acquiring thirty, but not of their own will. No, the Cel’s struggle to be a unified and powerful species was not over yet. They expanded faster than they developed an efficient, interstellar government. As a direct result, the outermost colonies erupted into rebellion against the homeworld and its closest solar systems. Fleets of dark voidships dueled over planets and moons for years, Cel died, automatons were reduced to scrap, and psionic storms raged. Just as the balance began to tip into the favour of the autocratic, imperialist homeworld, an anomaly drew the attention of both sides of the war. One of the moons, a strategically important body that was adorned with gleaming cities, had gone dark in an instant. Investigators went missing, and a cease fire was called to ascertain the nature of this disturbance.
They found their cities. They found empty spires and citadels that no longer held a single soul. The cease fire was allowed to extend for months in light of this. Millions had vanished, seemingly overnight. This had to be addressed. Warriors inspected every meter of the moon in an effort to find any answers. No answers came, only more questions in the form of a vault. At the moon’s seat of government sat a citadel, and beneath the citadel sat a vault. It appeared to have been excavated by the Cel who dwelled upon the moon before they vanished. The rebels offered to devote their surplus of scientists, who they had garnered through talk of freedom and democracy, to the task. The imperial Cel allowed this, and withdrew from the moon with a cunning plan to break the ceasefire pact. They nearly did, too.
The imperial fleet assembled for a devastating crusade into the heart of rebel territory, but it was called off in a turn of events that left the entirety of the Cel’s nation destabilized. Not only was contact lost with the labcoats and military personnel on the moon, but with that entire solar system. After a final message was received from the vault and those who investigated it, that system’s sun detonated as a supernova. Billions died in the cataclysmic event, centers of trade vanished, fleets burned, and the population of the race as a whole dropped far too much for comfort. The final message, a chilling secret kept to this day, was merely this: Lost Tribe discovery, urgent.
After the initial shock of this event’s implications, the imperial Cel produced an elaborate cover-up and swiftly reunited their empire. This time, an iron grip would be kept on all, and they would oversee all secrets and relics.
Now, the Cel are an interstellar feudal state that practices some rather extreme autocracy, and stands at the admirable, but not incredible, size of 29 solar systems. They spy frequently, assassinate often, keep a huge military on hand, and can be described as shadowy and untrustworthy.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Species Name:</span> Litharians

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> N

<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Extreme emphasis on technological advancement. Interest and advancement in Psionics and Biological Manipulation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> The Litharian homeworld of Havatk is a natural marvel. The planet is covered in lush jungles that can reach up to 400 feet in height and thanks to an abnormal weather system a mountainous tundra can exist right next to a thriving jungle that is teeming with life. The day cycle being 32 standard hours with an even spread of night and day, the day being lit up by the bright blue sun that Havatk orbits.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> The Litharian race is reptilian in genis, having a low digigrade form of legs with a soft spike coming off of each joint, like knee and heel plates. Their feet are a form of two toed, clawed foot that has a sort of natural back appendage that acts as a heel. The torso is covered in chitin plates that form a sort of natural armor in the form of overlapping “Vs”. The arms follow the same suit of chitin plates that move to form a standard set. The hands are very human-like in the respect of how they have four fingers and a thumb with the same knuckle count, only each finger is tipped with a pointed claw. The head of this race has a scaled set of lips that are rather rigid and form a staggered mouth line. The chin forms a rather defined jaw line that wraps around to the nonexistent ears. The eyes are normally reptilian that can range from white to red to green to blue to orange to black in color scheme. The “hair” of this race is a form of horns or head spikes or tuffs that can take hundreds of different forms from fins down the back to horns that curl back around to give bull points.

Litharians breathe the standard oxygenated mixture that is rather common with other interstellar species.

Thanks to a hunter like culture system the Lithrain race is well adapted to activity making them well suited to fast running, tenacious fighting, and the ability to take a punch and keep on punching. The most noticeable feature of the Litharians physical aspect is their incredible endurance and advanced sense of sight. Another noticeable feat is their dense muscle structure. This doesn’t make them super strong, but a “ripped” Litharian wouldn’t look “jacked”, but more like a toned man thanks to the tight muscle fibers.
Government Type: The Litharian Government is similar to a feudal structure but with definite caste influence. The governmental structure consists of a set of five leaders.

The first being the Master of War, also known as the Master of the Hunt; his/her job is to organize, plan, and command the military might of the Litharians. The second is the Master of Structure, also known as the Master of the People; his/her job is to oversee, work with, and organize the civilian population of the Litharians. The third is the Master of Others, also known as the Master of Allies; his/her job is to manage, negotiate, and work with other races and species to make and manage allies. The fourth is the Master of Eyes, also known as the Master of Spies; his/her job is to make sure that any secret the enemy has is known to the rest of the masters. The fifth is the Master of Advancement, also known as the Master of Science; hi/her job is to study, research, and create new and wondrous things for the Litharian populous. This collective is known as the Council of Masters.

For one to succeed a master the master must pick an apprentice from one of the members in their field of domain. From very early on the apprentice is chosen and for decades the apprentice stays at the master’s side learning everything they can before finally taking their role as the new master when the old one retires, dies, or is otherwise indisposed. Should a master be seen as unfit for service the other masters can vote to remove the master in question replacing him with a new accolade that is deemed most worthy and not the previous master’s apprentice to avoid a succession of an equally unworthy man.
Under each master is a hierarchy so all the responsibility doesn’t fall on just one man. This structure exists with two Sub-masters, and under each Sub-master is five Journeymen, and then under each Journeyman are ten Apprentices. After the Apprentices a collection of sub-ranks that varies depending on the master’s position: the Master of War having Generals, Majors, Privates, etc. The Master of Structure having Senators, Overseers, Mayors, etc.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The Litharain history is a tale of creation over adversity. The Litharians were at first a group of organized hunters, fighting, hunting, and gathering on their homeworld to simply survive and live. As the centuries pasted they advanced and made ideas into reality, making cities, and car, and planes to help make life on a hostile planet easier and more civil, but the call of the hunt would never leave. As time went on the idea of hunting became a rite of passage, a test of skill, and above all a way of life. Friends would spend days in silence talking only through body language and silent gestures, lovers leaving for months to live together courting through games of spear and rifle, or dispute being settled over who could bring back the most dangerous prize. This persisted up until the modern day where a code of honor through the hunt became law; making a society that respected and honored one another.

Several centuries later the Litharians reached out to the stars and as their understanding grew, so did their knowledge, before long practical space travel became a reality and before long colonies on new worlds and interstellar travel expanded their reach. Finding only new hunting grounds and homes they continued to expand and thrive. To ensure the success of the future the Council of Masters was formed to regulate and manage the growing empire that was the Litharian people.

One of the most defining moments in Litharian history was the discovery of their first intelligent race on a planet later known as Cathidet. A dangerous and hostile world where everything seemed to have been evolved to kill, maim, and consume. Amid the carnage they found the Karadon race and though relations didn’t start on good ground, they saw past their differences and became allies, taking the Karadons to the stars and over the next few centuries became closer allies and friends that the only word that could be used is family. The two races basically became one and together they began advancing to the technological juggernaut they now are.

For the Karadons, the Litharians found that their genetic structure was a marvel of nature and began giving them natural abilities that would make the race all the more evolved and powerful. For the Litharians, technology was a road that would give them the power that nature denied them. Advanced materials gave them safety, the discovery and weaponization of plasma gave them strength, and the knowledge of the universe gave them abilities unlike any seen before. Cloaking for the hunters, warp travel for the colonists, and for the people, new medicines and chances that Havatk could never provide.

It was then that the Litharians began their focus down the technological route, focusing on harnessing the wonders of plasma and the synthesizing of new stronger materials. As the years passed and the secrets came to fruition, plasma became a necessity for the Litharian race, fueling their ships, powering their weapons, and providing light in their homes. With power then came discovery, new materials created from the old ones gave the Litharians lighter, stronger, better materials to make armor, ships, and new types of homes able to withstand the dangers other planets would have in store.

It was only in the past few centuries that other intelligent and spacefaring races were discovered, some peaceful allies, others formidable foes. War and peace became a persisting event that only spurred further advancement, making better weapons, better armors, and new ways of warfare that were never know before. Psionics, a frightening new threat found in other space faring races dawned and created a new field of learning. As time passed, so did understanding now the Litharian populous knows of the strength in the mind, learning new ways to shape the galaxy with mere thoughts.

Today the Litharian race has a solid place in the galaxy still striving to find new allies, hunt new prey, and become a power that teaches honor to all who exist.

The current hierarchy consists of Master of War Karasis, who came to succession when his master retired. Master of Structure Jutaric, who came into power when her master retired. Master of Others Hitharis, who came into place when his master passed away of natural causes. The Master of Eyes Xilanthis, who came into power when the pervious Master of Eyes was removed after being convicted of treason. The Master of Advancement Nithurk, who came into his place of knowledge after his master was killed in a lab experiment.


<span class=""bb-b"">Species Name:</span> Karadon

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> N

<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Biological Manipulation and Breeding

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> Cathidet, a huge barren world made of deserts and mountains. The day cycle of Cathidet is 56 Standard hours, but thanks to the three blazing suns 48 of those hours are lit up with scorching sunlight, making patches of shade a rare occurrence. Only in the crooks of mountains can plant life go, making most of it’s inhabitants carnivorous killers. The world is a well-known death world, recommended to be avoided at all costs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> If ever there was a warrior race, this would be it. The Karadon race is a bipedal, humanoid bunch with thick scaled skin, similar to a few kinds of dinosaurs or komodo dragons. The skin being quite resilient to forms of impact. Two digigrade legs and standard arms, with three toed clawed feet and five fingered clawed hands. Four eyes, usually a primary color and slitted and a wide mouth built for carnivorous eating. Their heads are covered in scales and can have a variety of horn patterns ranging from a collection of spikes, much like a porcupines back to devil horns that can extend a few feet. They have tails that are just thick, beefy muscle ended with a bony mass to act as a club, usually about seven feet long in total. The race themselves have no distinguishable features between male and female other than females tend to have wider, more flat tails with a smaller bone mass at the end. Karadons average between 10-12 feet in height and are stacked with dense muscle. Their brains are somewhat underdeveloped and more primal compared to other intelligent races, but they still possess the ability of speech, tool construction, and tactical sense.

Karadons breathe a standard oxygenated mix common with interstellar species, but having grown up on a dusty and desert based planet, their lungs have a sort of natural filter. It doesn’t do much for fine chemicals and pathogens, but it helps them to operate at peak efficiency in swirling dust and sand storms.

Karadons are a very versatile race genetically, able to have their genetic structure modified and easily change to make new forms of Karadons. With the assistance of the Litharians, the Karadons have been modified and introduced to other genetic materials to change them physically. This would add spikes to the backs and arms of some, or increase the size of others to 20+ feet. In the more internal side, certain modifications allow some Karadon’s the ability to breathe underwater or breathe a flammable gas that can be lit with “sparkers” in their mouths. Usually these modifications are not compatible so a fire breathing Karadon most likely can’t breathe underwater.

<span class=""bb-b"">Government Type:</span> Karadon’s don’t have a government system of their own. It is more of a tribal structure with castes and sects banding together to survive and hunt with no real hierarchy or leadership. True, an Alpha usually takes a leader position of a pack, but his authority is only for that pack. When the Litharians came and integrated with them, the Karadons found many places within Litharian culture. Whether as soldiers, bodyguards, pack-men, or even family members to some.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The history of the Karadons is nothing to intricate; through several millennium they have survived and evolved on their homeworld fighting against the dangers that infest it. It wasn’t until the Litharian race discovered Cathidet and upon reaching its surface that the Karadons began to advance at a rapid rate. Joining the Litharians on their ships and utilizing their technology did they find a place among the galaxy. In the few hundred years that they have been integrating themselves with another race so different from their own, a sort of symbiotic relationship has formed, making Karadons and Litharians are frightful force.</div>"

Species Name: Wolkar

Human Ancestry: N

Racial Orientation: Cunning and voracious fighters with a great curiosity for new technology and discovery. Heavy tech focus fighting with group strategy and tactics.

Home world Type: A lush forest planet with sky cities hovering overhead. The Wolkar designed intricate systems to distribute light to the forests below to simulate the day cycle despite the planet’s constructed hi-tech shell. Primarily civilians only go down when they are certified to show they can survive on their own in case of emergency due to the vicious predators down below. Despite the few civilians that go down, it  is used often by the military and guard units for training.

Physiology: The Wolkar are best described as wolf men capable of traveling on both to legs or moving on all fours for heightened mobility. Their musculature ranges from light and quick to hulking berserkers, varying mainly thanks to variances concerning where they choose to apply themselves within the pack. Those who are more tech oriented have smaller frames and builds to better fit within repair conduits and tend to have fur colors that match more with the metal grating they find themselves in. Their fingers are also much more nimble to handle the smaller tools needed for their jobs, dexterity gained by working with small circuits over time. The packs that are more warrior based will be much larger in build with stronger limbs for fighting, even their claws gaining length and a keener edge for that added combat advantage. Typically the claws would only be used when challenging another for dominance if done in the more traditional style of challenge or as impromptu tools for carving out arrows and spears should they find themselves running low on supplies and need to create improvised weapons. The more modern tech has removed the need to use these claws as weapons to the point that it is almost taboo to use them for most combat situations. Though some fur colors are more easily found in certain packs most colors can be found within the collective. The ears of the Wolkar are typically canine with tufts of fur inside to act as a barrier for extremely high pitched noise. Typically these ears can move on their own, coming farther up to hear more clearly or press close to the head and tight over the fur tufts to muffle ear piercing sounds like the roar of a ship’s engine. Wolkar can see easily in the dark, their eyes easily adjusting to various levels of light. However, quick changes from one extreme to another, such as going from jet black night to a piercing white light of a flashbang grenade, can strongly disorient them and leave them recovering for several minutes without eye gear to lessen the effect. Sense of smell has over the years been muted down over the years due to the recent rush of exposure to starship fumes and other pollutants, being somewhere below tracking dogs and a standard human in terms of smell sensitivity. The few packs who have their warriors spend most of their time in the forests below the sky-cities can however train their sense of smell to return to their original sharpness.

Government Type: Pack-type hierarchy. Similar to wolf packs, the Wolkar believe in strong leadership and right of challenge by combat. The Alpha is the overall leader of the pack with a Beta and Omega below him. In order to become the Alpha, one has to first defeat the Omega and keep his position for one month before he can then challenge the Beta. Once he becomes the Beta he must wait a year before he can challenge the Alpha. This is only within the pack and there is a collective known as the Alpha Council. The head of the council is known as the Sirius, the only one the other Alpha’s follow and obey. This tiered challenge system ensures strong leadership while also ensuring that power is not constantly changing hands. Even after an Alpha is defeated he is then made into the Beta so they can guide the new Alpha in their duties. Despite the competitive nature needed in such a society, it is well recognized that you only call a challenge when there is no immediate danger or when it will not cause chaos in a time of trouble. In times of war a challenge would only be issued if the majority believed the current Sirius was incapable or negligent. The Wolkar are surprisingly a close knit community, acting as a massive family while even accepting outsiders into their pack so long as they pass the proper tests and trials to prove their resolve to join the pack.  

History: Originally a tribal culture, they were primarily hunters and farmers for centuries. They were at the stage of going from using skilled artisans to industrialization when a freighter ship crash landed on their planet, causing first contact to be established with the rest of the galaxy and allowing the Wolkar their first grasp of true technology. It had been such a large leap from where they were that many had delved headlong into studying, and soon mastering, these new devices. In short order the Wolkar went from catching up to the advances in technology to becoming pioneers in the fields, using their cunning and analyzing gained hunting the predators of the wilds to figuring out new advances and applications of technology. Today they have made floating sky-cities which cover almost the entirety of the forest below, using advanced systems to deliver sunlight and rain water to maintain the ecosystem. They have also made themselves well renowned for their mercenaries and bounty hunters, becoming a base of the galactic mercenary guild in exchange for access to the advanced battle armors and weapons the Wolkar have created under the condition they not be sold to the other nations behind their backs. While the Wolkar have been happy to sell their technology used for agriculture or medicine, trading military equipment is highly regulated and dealt with most harshly if any smuggler is found trying to smuggle Wolkar tech off of the planet. Their overall specialization lies in their advanced power armor and cybernetics augmentation. While they only use robotic limb weapons in the case of wounded veterans on active duty, they do have most Wolkar set up with a cybernetic connector port at the back of the neck, serving to connect them directly to technology. Whether it be citizens connecting directly to the galactic net or soldiers wiring their brains to work their armor weapons with a thought, this connection gives the Wolkar unrivaled control over technology. They have even created strength assist technology that works in tandem with their body’s motions, acting as added muscle that works in sync with the user’s actual body. These advancements were later pushed to the next level when they discovered a new mineral ore which they later called Beskad, becoming many times more durable than what had previously been the galaxy’s strongest malleable metal that can be found naturally. To this day all Wolkar ships are plated with this rare metal, used only when durability was the absolute top priority in the construction of anything that could use metal. While even Wolkar children are capable of creating basic robotics, there is a university dedicated to creating new machines. There is already a host of high grade war mechs and tanks, not limited to the newest weapon in the Wolkar arsenal: The FERALS.  

These armored mechs can be heavily modified to suit different roles in battle from heavy missile support, to artillery, to high speed close combat specialist vehicles. They are designed to only be operable through a Wolkar neural connector and sport a wide arsenal. They are all equipped with flight boosters, quick boosters for evasion, as well as a energy armor system which, with the right tinkering and modification, can be expended to create a shockwave of devastating energy. In addition, each part is highly customizable, even capable of exchanging the standard two leg design for a tank leg unit or even four legs for stability. A FERAL can hold several weapons. Typically it has one for each hand, and two back units. While most FERALs found in the field will carry missiles, standard energy rifles, and a grenade launcher, most of the more notable and specialized FERAL pilots equip their units with an energy blade to cut through heavy armor. The back units can carry EX boosters to boost maneuverability, carry missiles, or even energy and rail cannons for doling out a long ranged barrage. While the NORMALs are used for the standard soldier and are only about 16 feet tall and lack the mobility and armor of their companions, the NEXTs used by the more elite pilots are 32 feet tall and are much more powerful.</div>"

Former Master of Eyes Klith imprisoned for treason against the Litharian people and Council of Masters. Sentence is Death to be carried out in two months time. His transfer was successful, no troubles on the way to the planet, then facility, then finally his cell. He has displayed no intent of escaping and seems to have come to grips with his fate.

""He's only got another two weeks before his execution. You would think he'd be a little more regretful."" Said a Litharain man, staring at a security console and more specifically the monitor looking into Klith's cell.

""Well what do you expect, he sold Litharian secrets. That's not a man, not anymore."" Another Litharain sitting in the security room as well.

On the monitor Klith sat at the edge of his bed, hands folded, chin resting on them. His blank stare empty looking at the far wall. 'It won't be much longer' he thought to himself. And as if on his thought an explosion rocked the facility, the wall he was staring as shattered into dust and rubble and on instinct he ran forward, leaping through the cloud of dust.

""What! All units converge on Klith's cell, get us reinforcements to Thristrum Station, he can't escape."" A guard captain yelled as chaos erupted all around.

Litharain Galactic Date 5372-204, Planet Havatk, Council Chamber of the Masters. Declaration is made that the convicted traitor and criminal Klith has escaped from Thristrum Maximun Security Prison with the assistance of an unknown party. The Litharian Collective turns to assistance in hunting down this dangerous man.

""...This is hardly the ideal situation, but out options are limited. Whoever assisted him in escape knew Thristrum's layout and had the resources to bypass it's defenses."" Master of Structure Jutaric declared before the other Masters.

""But to give the knowledge of his escape to other races will only further compromise ours!"" Master of War Karasis shouted back.

""If he truly did escape with the help of others it wouldn't matter anyway. He is most likely already hiding with other races in exchange for he knows. Involving others could only serve to assist our efforts of finding him."" The new Master of Eyes Xilanthis calmly stated. ""I refuse to debate this matter further. Time is of the esseance and we must act, I urge forward the vote."" He finished raising his right hand to signal his vote of yes.

All around him, Master of Structure raised her right. Master of War raised his left saying no. Master of Advancement advocated to raise her right. Finally Master of Others hesitant at first raised his right.

""The vote passes, but this must still be handled delicately, the Wolkar are known hunters and only need a price."" Master of Others Hitharis spoke up swiftly. ""I shall invite an emissary to the Chambers so we can discuss matters further.""

The other Masters nodded in unison, adjuring the meeting.

Each one heading off in their own directions, but the Master of Others went to his office and to work sending a message to the Alphas.

""On behave of the Council of Masters, I humbly invite the Alpha Council to Havatk to discuss a possible diplomatic endevour that has come to our attention due to recent events.

The Council of Alphas has recieved word from the Litharian Council of Masters that they wish to recieve an envoy in order to pursue a new diplomatic endeavor concerning recent events. Given this new opportunity to strengthen ties and possibly gain access to the Litharian's higher strength alloys to augment their machines and power armor, they were eager to make a good impression. The Alpha Sirius spoke first as an opening statement. ""The Litharians will be valuable allies if they can become pack brothers. It is critical that we ensure this endeavor does not fail.  In that regard, I have chosed Alpha Rennacd to represent us in this endeavor.""

Several of the Alphas growled out in disagreement, all vying for the position to further their own power before being silenced by the Sirius's own howl. The Sirius had fought off several challenges ad proved his strength and his authority. The rest of the Alphas quickly silenced their objections. The Alpha in question, Alpha Rennac Shadowclaw of the Shadowclaw clan and overseeer of the Mercenary guild, stood to be addressed still donned in his full armor.

""Rennac, as the overseer of the Mercenary guild, you have the most experience dealing with outsiders. That and my gut is telling me this may be a more... dirty endeavor. I doubt this sudden desire  for an envoy is to discuss trading rights. It is too sudden, too rushed. I want you to head out in full gear and be prepared for anything. However, I suggest you do not bring your FERAL. Since they did not outright say what it was they required it is clear they seek discretion. I expect you to approach this with the utmost professionalism.""

Alpha Rennac smirked and nodded. ""Come on, it was only the one time. My little brother was finally coming of age and I had to be the good brother and go with him to drink. Not like I blew up the FERAL depot.""

""Just save the drinking for AFTER the job. We don't want a repeat of the Stumble Inn fiasc."" 

As if on cue, all the pack Alphas gave a shiver of fear at the memory. 

""R-right. Will do.""

Litharian Galactic Date 5372-220, Planet Havatk, Palace of the Masters. Meeting preparations finish and Emissary Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw is summoned to the Chamber of the Masters to begin their deliberations.

The Masters were already present sitting at their curved semi-circle table waiting in silence for the Emissary to arrive through the large double doors at the other end of the room. A small table had been set up in the middle of the semi-circle so each Master would be an equal distance from where he would sit. Behind each Master was a grand tabard each one showing their specific symbol of office. From left to right, Master of Advancement Nithurk, Master of Others Hitharis, Master of War Karasis, Master of Structure Jutaric, and finally Master of Eyes Xilanthis. The room being an ornate over arching cathedral-like design with new aged pillars lining the walls. Above their heads was a domed roof that extended up high above. Everything around seemed to be either an expensive polished wood or an immaculately  carved ornate marble or granite.</div>"

The only piece on him that was remotely decorative was an embroidered shoulder cape used for official meetings and events. He took his seat, placing his helmet on the table in front of him before turning to the Master of  Others. ""Before we begin I would like to thank Master Hitharis for contacting my people concerning this diplomatic endeavor. It is a strong belief of my people to welcome any who would have us as comrades and allies. Hopefully we can begin paving the way toward stronger diplomatic ties in the future. That said, I understand you are in need of a professional. As the Overseer and elite member of the Mercenaries guild, I am interested in getting underway as soon as possible considering this undertaking is likely time sensitive.""</div>"

Around Rennac the other Masters in turn gave their greetings. The Master of War came last, ""Save your empty words Wolkar, your words lack the honor they intend. You are here against our race's better judgement.""

The Master of Others, Master of Structure, and Master of Advancement all turned to Karasis at the same time. But it was the Master of Structure Jutaric that spoke up first, ""Enough Karasis, this man came to us of his own free will and means to do right by us. Hold your tongue if you seek only enemies.""

The Master of Others spoke up next, ""Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw, thank you for coming to us on such short notice. You are correct in this matter, we need an expedited solution to a problem that if you can accomplish it will strengthen our ties.""

The Master of Eyes Xilanthis pressed a few buttons on his section of table causing a holographic representation of Klith to form in the center of the room for all to see. ""This is the former Master of Eyes Klith. Indicted for treason and sentenced to death. He recently escaped and fled off-world. As the Master of Eyes he has proven elusive and difficult to capture. He knows too much of Litharain protocol and tactics to viably be taken by a Hunter Team. That is where you come in.""

The Master of War chimed in again, ""This does not make you valueable, only different. You are nothing to the-""

The Master of Advancement was the next to silence him, ""Karasis, enough! We are to be allies not enemies, so save the banter for another battlefield.""

The Master of Eyes returned to his speech, ""You will be compensated for his return, your price is what we are here to negotiate.""</div>"

""My people have always been open to others, welcoming even the most alien and different into our society and treating them as we would our own kin. One's heart will be as empty as their pack if they choose to trust no one.""

With those words of wisdom spoken he returned his focus to the briefing, absorbing all of the details that were made available as sparse as they were. A former spymaster was certain to be a difficult hunt, though he had tracked down ghosts before. He nodded as the overall briefing concluded.

""I will assume you want him brought in alive if possible, dead if necessary. I would typically ask for any information like patterns or aliases linked to the target though in this circumstance I understand such details would be quite sensitive to your national security. I shall have to do without. As for payment.."" He paused as he could feel the scowl from the Master of War already, knowing he was more than ready to jump on the Wolkar's words as soon as he spoke. ""I opt to not receive monetary payment. In lieu of such I propose that once Klith is brought to justice that we may begin talks  towards a trade agreement or possibly begin discussions for an alliance. Given the unusual nature of this proposition, I am more than happy to negotiate any stipulations you may have on this matter.""</div>"

The Master of War was next interrupt, ""Your sayings and words still ring hollow. You have no honor to give merit to humility.""

The Master of Others was about to speak up in protest again, but The Master of Eyes motioned to silence him.

Continuing the Master of War spoke angrily, ""We won't seek an alliance with honorless wretches. Twenty million Phire will be your payment and we won't see your hide again.""

The Master of Structure looked astonished at the mention of twenty million her head turning to the War of War with wide eyes opening her mouth to protest, but was again silenced by a gesture from the Master of Eyes.</div>"
21135,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 04:16:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's smile was replaced with a scowl as the Master of War spoke once more, the Litharian's words biting into his patience.

""I do ask for the Council's forgiveness, but I was brought here under the understanding this was a mission of diplomacy. If this is nothing more than a bounty posting, then I am afraid you have contacted us through the improper forum. Normally I would be required to instruct you to contact the guild through the proper channels to post your bounty and to go through the standard process of hunters gaining the notification and coming here. Though, of course, they would have to willingly accept upon receiving the notice and come here of their own volition and I cannot guarantee they would approach this hunt with the same... discretion as you would likely prefer. However, you technically have not done the proper paperwork to post the bounty, and this Klith could be a potential threat to my own people should he set his sights on Ferran. According to guild charter, the penalty for seeking jobs outside of the guild is to be permanently banned from the guild and denied all resources from the guild. That leaves three options. The first is that I direct you to filing out the proper forms and have the guild send out the bulletin to all available hunters, though that will be far more messy. I can accept the job but refuse payment, though the Wolkar diplomatic corps will likely turn down future requests and just redirect your inquiries to the guild  since, as the Master of war pointed out, your only interest in the Wolkar is as mercenaries. The third option on the table is that we revisit my previous proposal and the payment for recovering the traitor Klith before he reveals anymore of your government's secrets will be promises of future talks between our people. There is no guarantee needed of any alliance or even a trade agreement for that matter. We could do something as small as setting up an exchange rate between our nation's currencies.""

The Wolkar paused and let that sink in, allowing the council to mull over his words as well as the point he made of the lessened relations between their people. In all but one of those scenarios, they suffer consequences whether they be long or short term. The Wolkar was not being deceitful but merely following legal and diplomatic protocol, though that would hardly stop the Master of War from running his mouth. If anything, his experience with this group thus far was enough to possibly close diplomatic channels in his mind, his impression of them being very closed minded and intolerant of others which was a direct contrast to how the Wolkar approached those of other races.</div>"

A creature as low as this thinking he had domain and power among the Litharians was an insult and one he would not stand for. He slammed his fist onto the table and the large doors opened allowing a pair of heavily armored and armed Karadon, clearly modified to be lethal monsters of death. The 16 foot high pair marched towards Rennac standing at attention at either side of him ready for their orders.

""You have no domain or reason to mock us! You have no power and should be honored that we have even offered to pay you!"" The Master of War shouted in response.

Around him the Masters of Structure, Advancement, and most of all Others seemed absolutely livid about to depose the Master of War for his actions, but to teh side the Master of Eyes continued to pacify the others a grin on his face growing as the Master of War continued his rant. ""I think this meeting has come to a conclusion, we shall adjourn and return to deliberations after our guest has had some time to think on our offer."" The Master of Eyes said calmly, gesturing the guard to escort Rennac from the room.</div>"

He already planned to have the Lithorians not only blacklisted on their diplomatic channels but also have them blacklisted from the guild. This biggot was risking war the moment he called his guards after the wolkar had simply laid out the options available to them since he was not there representing the guild but solely as an ambassador of the Alpha Council. If news of his detainment had reached Ferran, it would mean certain war. When a member of the pack is taken, the entire pack rallies to free them. 

He quickly stood and readied himself for a potential conflict, his armor hissing as it moved. ""This is no insult. I am not here under the authority of the guild, therefore I cannot just accept your job without the bounty being formally posted and processed. I am here strictly as a diplomatic envoy. Unless it concerns the ties between our nations, my hands are tied."" 

His tone was as professional as it came, ready to fight his way out if it seemed to be neccesary. Thankfully however, it looked like it might not be needed as the Master of Eyes seemed to take control. The Wolkar could only hope he was more stable than his counterpart, or else he would need to put his jetpack to use. Once he got back to his quarters he opened up his portable terminal and printed the necessary forms. If these bozos wouldn't negotiate with him as a diplomat, they would need to fill out the necessary forms to hire him through the guild. He also notified the Sirius about the situation should the Masters be rash enough to imprison or kill him and start war.</div>"

In stepped the Master of Eyes all dressed up in his immaculately smooth white suit and some sort of fruit in his hand. ""I do hope you are decent."" he said with a light chuckle and a hand extended offering the fruit.</div>"
21139,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 05:10:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac eyed the master of eyes warily, hesitating before accepting the fruit and having it sampled with his suits medical probe to scan for toxins. He was not going to hide that his trust was highly damaged after that disaster of a diplomatic negotiation. ""No worries about that. Most of my kind practically live in our armor. Speaking of, you may as well look these over."" He handed the forms to the Master of eyes, his tone impassive. ""The first is the physical form to process your bounty on Klith so I can actually act to represent the guild since I was unable to before. The second is a list of guidelines concerning regulations for using the guild. I made sure to underline how attacking or otherwise detaining a guild worker without legal provocation is cause for the person or government to be blacklisted for a period no less than ffty years. At this point its going to take a hell of a lot to make me reconsider my current proposal to cease any diplomatic ties between the Wolkar and your people, just as a heads up.""</div>"

But completely useless"" He said tossing it to the floor. ""You see Karasis is the only master with issues with you. The rest of use actually want to have diplomatic ties strengthened and forged. Unfortunately Karasis will not be swayed with from his old ways.""

He began to move towards the bed, laying down with his hands behind his head. ""Litharian politics are a funny thing, and apparently very different from the Wolken sort. This 'job' as you see it is a diplomatic mission. Unfortunately karasis sees it only as a job to pay a worthless piece of trash from a worthless planet.""

He let out a sigh, thinking about all the heedless times Karasis has almost lead them to war over his ideals, if he wasn't a tactical genius he may have been sent into early retirement. ""That is why when we reconvene I'll suggest that the Wolken are not to be trusted and to supplement the hunting party with one of ours. This chance of a dual-species operation will allow our ties to be forged in the ways of old, the ways of Karasis. Meanwhile I can focus on 'convincing' the masters to change the the deal. Of course it won't be hard, like I said the other masters already want it. I was thinking of establishing a trade connection between some of our fringe worlds. It would be safe, convenient, and beneficial to us both. What do you think?""</div>"

It did raise a question or two about how their system worked if one could block all progress despite the majority working against them. 

""Truth be told this only became a job because of Karasis. I was in full support of this being a diplomatic endeavor from the beginning. I still hope it is possible, though if Karasis is any indication of how the rest of your people believe any lasting relations may be a lost cause. Still, if you believe this will offer some chance of success, I would be a poor envoy if I did not pursue this option. I'll go for it. I do ask that someone capable be assigned as my shadow for this one. This will be no hunt for a greenhorn.""</div>"

""You are partially right. We only need a majority vote to have anything pass, so we don't need him to vote with us. After all he will most likely still hate you when this is over, nothing we can do about that. Jutaric, Hitharis, and Nithurk all want to catch this bastard so we don't have a threat this big looming over us. But I see a potential here. Which is why I hope you can forgive my attempts to support Karasis. If I didn't they would have beaten us in a majority and we'd be all happy and dandy with Wolken looking for the traitor. But now if I can turn this into a joint mission we could use it as an excuse for further development using this as a political stunt. I can see the headlines already, 'Wolken and Litharian team up to take down traitorous master.' Builds a sort of, 'this can only only be a good thing' mentality. It's kind of funny how words can sway so many minds. Ah, but such is the way of the unseen hands. The little things that make all the difference.""

Xilanthis stood up and made his way to Rennac extending his hand to shake, ""I know it seems strange, but sometimes its the people who are the real target and it's up to us to make the most of a sour situation. I'll make sure you get a good candidate to join you. Oh and before I forget, you were never under arrest, I just had to make sure we had a talk before you left the planet with a demonized impression of us.""</div>"

Overall it did make sense why the master of eyes wanted to manipulate events in such a way. ""Mhm. You should also avoid anyone who has loyalty to Krasis over the council as a whole. As it stands I wouldn't put it past him to have one of his men try to kill me during the hunt or even hiring a non guild merc to try and assassinate me. For all his talk of honor he was more than ready to kill an unarmed diplomat. Plus, it looks much better for the tabloids not to read 'Wolkar-Litharian taskforce fight one another!' As for the whole demonized impression, I thus far only have a demonized impression of one of you. Its the fact that one person is the head of your military that worries me.""

Just trust that I have our best interests at the forefront of my mind, no matter what I say at tomorrow's meeting.""

With that he moved to push the door's open button, but just before his finger found it's mark, his bother began to dissipate into a smoke and as he was vanishing into thin air, he made one final remark, ""And don't' forget, I was never here.""


Litharian Galactic Date 5372-221, Planet Havatk, Chamber of the Masters. The continuation of yesterday's meeting begins. The Masters are already sitting at their respective seats and are awaiting Emissary Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw.</div>"
21145,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 16:45:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac strode into teh room once more, his pleasant demeanor from before gone as a scowl replaced it. His helm was always within reach this time, hand never leaving it as if he were constantly on guard and ready for the possibility of violence. His tone was curt and to the point. ""Given the debacle at our previous meeting, I would like to clear up a misunderstanding. I was meeting with you before ONLY as an envoy of the Wolkar pack collective, and therefore was not entitled to represent the mecenary guild at that time. Since Master Krasis has stated this is no longer a matter of diplomacy, I had to inform the Alpha Council as well as the guild of the change of plans. Now, I can represent both here today. Now then, lets get on with this so we can end this nasty business quickly."" 

A subtle nod toward the Master of Eyes served as both the signal to resume the briefing as well as a signal to inform him of hsi act. He was already mapping out the hunt in his mind, his main plan to be to make the public believe the negotiations were rocky at best and seem like they could fall through quickly. Since this target was a spy master, it was likely that he would be less eager to reveal himself to one who was having positive results in peace talks with those who wanted him dead. He had to put on the act so that the guards present would think any sort of  alliance  or positive relation would be impossible and would spread that belief to others. With a bit of data manipulation on the end of the Wolkar galactic net station, it could easily be spread to wherever Klith was hiding.</div>"
21146,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 17:07:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Master of War Karasis seemed as though he had a few choice words to say, but held his tongue. Instead Master of Others Hitharis chimed in, ""On behave of the masers I wish to apologize for yesterdays little event. Master of War Karasis means well, even if he doesn't always speak it."" Giving a shallow bow at the end.""

""This isn't an ideal situation, but I don't believe we have deceived the Alpha Council in any sense of the word. This still remains a diplomatic mission. We seek to find if the Wolkar can be assist us in this matter discreetly before we advance our intents further."" Master of Structure Jutaric added.

""As for the possibility of diplomatic payment, we are more than ready to accomodate."" Master of Others Hitharis finished.</div>"
21147,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 17:26:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's posture eased ever so slightly, almost inperceptible to the civilian masters though those like the master of eyes and war would notice it. The wolkar feigned a few moments of pondering, deciding mostly on a course of action. ""Very well, since the maority of the council is indeed  in favor of keeping this a diplomatic mission, I will treat it as such. Fortunately I have already had time to ponder on how best to achieve our goal of ending this is quietly as possible."" 

He placed a small holo transmitter on his desk and pressed activated a projection of the the former master of eyes as well as some basic details and description. ""Given the information we have on the target we know he is on the run, has had assistance in his escape, had access to considerably high grade tools for his escape, and will also need the support of the underworld or a government power to be kept hidden in the long term. Most importantly, he has Litharian military secrets which he could trade for said money and protection.""

On a thought the holo-emitter changed to the image of a well known and infamous city-planet. ""Shad-noir is the most likely location for such an auction to be held. If nothing else, we can at least find information about the deal on the planet. If Klith is smart, he'll remain in a secured location until it comes time for the deal. With so many potentially high profile buyers, he would not risk offending them by not showing up to the auction or swap-meet. As usual, there will likely be a buy in to get access to the auction. I have the authority of the council to cover this expense from our treasury. This will also  make Klith believe I am there to legitimately buy this information, rather than hunt him. The odds of this  gambit working will also be dependant on the public belief that our negotiations are indeed  proceeding poorly and war may be likely. To this end I propose the Master of Eyes works in conjunction with the Wolkar Information Service to spread rumors of political discontent. This will give the Klith the impression that the Wolkar are seeking a means to determine the potential hostile intent of your country. The previous meeting will be enough truth to make that falsehood believable. Any objections?"" He turned to all in attendance EXCEPT for Krasis, knowing he would just sputter out racist comments as opposed to any legitimate points.</div>"
21148,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 17:47:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""While I appreciate your suggestion, I know my business. Klith has made no venture to selling Litharian secrets at a public forum, even one as slimy and rotten as Shad-noir."" The Master of Eyes said sternly. ""He isn't your average bandit, comfortable taking Phire from peasants. He knows that he is worth far more.""

""But of course if you are so willing to buy our secrets, I see no reason why you should not be hired."" Xilanthis turned to his fellow masters, ""I do not trust him or the Wolkar. It would be too easy for his race to exploit this event.""

""Then what would you have us do Xilanthis? Leave Klith alone to do what he pleases?"" Master of Structure Jutaric scolded.

""Far from it, I propose we send one of our own with the Emissary to cooperate in the search and detainment of the traitor. This will give us the best of both worlds and keep my mind at peace knowing they can't simply run off with him.""

""I have several candidates who would be willing and their sense of honor will over power this coward's."" Master of War Karasis added, unable to retain his distain for bounty hunters.</div>"
21149,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 18:05:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac nodded at the information, surprised by the insight Xilanthis had concerning his predecessor. ""Hmm. Shad-noir is a good place to start nonetheless. If Klith is to get supplies from underground, it will have gone through the planet's shipping fronts or be carried by a smuggler based there.""

Then came the part he expected, knowing that there would be concern about his offer to front the money needed to head  to the hypothetical meet to buy the intelligence. Then came Karasis's sneering retort, a scowl coming across the wollar's muzzle. 

""As much faith as I have in your soldier's ability to fight, this is no battlefield we are going to. This is a hunt. This will require discretion and stealth, even moreso than usual considering the sensitivity of this mission. A standard rank and file soldier will be too easy to spot and would give us away instantly, giving Klith time to recognize us and escape before we can locate him. Whoever is chosen must be able to track down the target, be skilled and quiet in a fight, and be able to keep his head low enough not to be fingered as a hostile on sight. Anything less will be dead weight.""</div>"

""Enough Karasis. While I agree with you, we do have the Reaper Caste. This is the kind of mission they live and breathe for and it should go a way to satisfy our guest considering they are equal parts mine as your's."" Xilanthis said making sure he didn't offend the emissary too much, again.

Karasis was about to make a harsh retort given he was interrupted again, but decided that Xilanthis had a point. This was a job better suited to a Reaper than a Karadon.

""I shall chose one of my best to accompany you. It is through him that our channels shall be open. As for working with the Wolkar Information Service, I shall create a channel to coordinate. I move to vote in favor of a cooperative effort to bring the traitor Klith back to justice."" The Master of Eyes continued, raising his right.

The Master of Structure was the next to vote, raising her right. Following close behind was the Master of War, raising his right. Then came the Master of Advancement, raising her right.

Shockingly the Master of Others raised his left saying, ""We should trust our Wolkar brethren to act on the best intentions. I do not like the sounds of this escort you propose.""

""The vote favors the cooperative. Have you anything to add Emissary Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw?"" Inquired the Master of Eyes.</div>"
21151,The Endless Game,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76350-the-endless-game,['Casual'],2015-02-08 18:50:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">'Right on cue' thought the Wolkar, knowing this would be just what he needed. He listened intently, surprised when the Master of Others voted against the cooperative. When Xilanthis addressed him again he smiled and turned to Hitharis with a smile.

""I am grateful for your confidence Master Hitharis, though this coordinated effort would also have an added benefit. It would give my time to fight side-by-side with one of your own soldiers, to learn how our styles of combat can complement and strengthen the other when we work together in the future. This also incidentally follows a tradition of my people, the bonding of two battle-brothers on the hunt. So long as your representative is capable and will not draw unwanted attention to give us away, this will prove to be a better option for all than simply sending me out solo. Besides, since these Reapers also partially work under the Master of Eyes, they would have the best idea of how Klith operates. However, I recommend caution in who you pick. We have yet to learn who assisted Klith's escape and whether or not they are among your military forces. I would recommend giving this duty to a new, yet capable recruit. Someone who has great skill, yet was not under the authority of the Master of Eyes until after Klith was removed from power. This will minimize the odds of a potential traitor being assigned to Klith's capture. I am sure your men are skilled and loyal, but with a target this potentially dangerous neither the Wolkar nor the Master Council can take any unnecessary risks in his apprehension.""</div>"

You having nothing to fear."" The Master of Eyes said reassuringly. ""I know of one man that I trust in particularly. I will contact him and make sure he is ready withing the day.""

The Master of Structure chimed up next, ""I will commission a civilian ship to act as your transport and vessel of operations as well as retrofit it with the communications systems required for a secure channel.""

""Be ready Young Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw. We will contact you once preparations are finished. May your hunt be bountiful."" The Master of Others finished pressing a few buttons on his desk to open the large doors and wrap up the meeting.

Nothing important, really. It was just a fragment. That said, the insignificant could still invoke the powers of the monumental, and this little, insignificant thing would do that.

The station had slumbered in the orbit of a pulsing, bright star for ages and ages. It had no intention of ending its long sleep until the masters of this solar system returned, whenever that was destined to happen. Until then, it would make itself content by calling out for them every few thousand years. Today was the day it would call out once more. The station's cry, a mournful song of distress and disrepair, sung out to the galaxy in search of someone to maintain it. Systems were failing and the masters were nowhere in sight. It was a distress signal from an empty region with only dead worlds to populate it. Nobody would have find it before, but maybe the mournful song would change this.</div>"

A mysterious signal passed through INTCOM scanners. The signal was unmitigated and not attempted to be hidden, pattern matches those of distress known signals.

Wolkar technicians discovered the anomalous signal and worked immediately to pinpoint the source and intent of the signal. From what the faction's experts could tell it was a distress signal originating from a previously unexplored section of space. Since, to the Wolkar's knowledge, there has been no known civilization out that far in space. With this knowledge in mind, the report was sent directly to the Alpha council t await their response.

The Alpha council has convened to discuss the discovered signal which has been labelled as the ""Star Messanger."" With the Shadowclaw Alpha indisposed on a diplomatic assignment, Beta Colm will be representing the Shadowclaw clan on the council during Alpha Rennac's absence.

After a short vote, it was decided that an exploratory fleet comprising of two frigate escorts, and one science vessel would be sent to examine the source of the signal as well as a relief ship should there be survivors in need of aid. The relief ship will also serve as the base for the diplomatic representative Rover of Clan Por'ka should first contact procedures need to be enacted. While  the fleet is being prepared, the Sirius has announced he will contact the Litharian Master of Others to arrange a meeting between the two councils to discuss the possible benefits and risk this signal may pose not only to the dispatched fleets, but the galaxy at large.

However, I am afraid we must skip the pleasantries, given the potential danger. Our stations have reported of an unrecognized signal coming from uncharted space. Though it is not on our records as an official distress signal, we deduced  it to be such and aim to dispatch an exploration fleet as well as a relief ship should they require assistance. That said, our chroniclers have gone through our historical texts and found no mention of a civilization that deep in space. We have no way of knowing if they could be hostile. For that reason I ask that should we lose contact or they discover hostile forces, that our councils meet together to address what could possibly be an enemy stronger than either of us alone.""</div>"

It was a dark thing, reflective exterior barely illuminated by the dying sun it orbited. Derelict weapons systems no longer received power, which probably meant that the station simulated neither gravity, nor breathable atmosphere. The last vestiges of electricity contained in its reactors were devoted to preserving the life of a decrepit artificial intelligence unit, too low on energy to simulate anything more than the most basic intelligence. It might has well have been a dead station. The only remarkable thing about it, then, was how it managed to broadcast this signal. The power source for the broadcaster would have to be separate from the other systems, which made sense in some manner. Sustaining a distress beacon was top-priority if one had intention to respond to them. Unfortunately, whoever fabricated this kilometer-long structure was long gone. Its architecture was plain and unappealing, designed purely for function. Empty hallways yielded no bodies, only the corpses of computer systems that went offline long ago. The foul touch of entropy had not found its way here, more or less. Most was preserved, but little was new. It was precursor, but not one of the greats. At least, it didn't appear to be. The databases of the terminals on-board could yield information, if power could be restored.

All in all, it was dead, and eerie, and invited one to seek out its phantom distress beacons, if only to shut them off.</div>"

When the station came in sight the Litharian ships began a security scan of the local area. All three ZEPHYRs broke off, engaged their cloak field, and began to patrol the system for possible threats.

As for the station itself one of the HAMMER warships went in first weapons armed and ready to fire. But as it drew closer and none of the stations weapons became hostile the HAMMER warship released several dropships to carry assault teams to the station. Again they made it there without incident and the troops began to spread out, weapons at the ready and aimed around every corner. As they found empty halls and no signs of conflict, it was unsettling, but not threatening. After the soldiers cleared a large portion of the station a captain radioed the HAMMER giving a report of the current situation. That was enough for the HAMMER to give the ok for the THEORY Science Ship land as well as more dropships to be sent down to establish a forward base.

It didn't take more than a few hours to establish a self-contained command center on the station and with it, long range communications and a landing zone for getting troops and scientist down faster.</div>"

The Wolkar emergency response fleet met up with the Litharian fleet with no problems and proceeded to have it'sown frigates flanking the HAMMER on it's initial approach, keeping it's sides covered in the case of an attack. A small group of NORMAL type FERALS were deployed from the frigates to investigate the hanger units and secure them for the incoming dropships of troops and scientists. Upon discovering there was little in the station beyond a failed power system and computer terminals the technicians aboard the Wolkar ships were transported to the station to begin the slow process of restoring the station's life support systems and investigating what lies within the station's database.</div>"

Meanwhile the outpost was finished within a few hours and loaded with atmosphere and artificial gravity. Litharian scientists began scanning the station for signs of anything, and where there was no life, they did begin to find faint power signatures running through dying systems. Their focus became rerouting energy from the science ship's Portable Plasma Reactor into the station. It would take some time, but it could be done.

In the meantime, the Litharians made contact with the Wolkar to inform them of their advances as well as their intent on restoring power to the station and to be ready should they manage it.</div>"

More engineering teams were deployed to examine the satellite's systems in greater detail as  well as attempting to boot up the data terminals using external power cells. 

The engineering teams deployed themselves to the faint power signatures, examining them so they may observe at least a partially functioning power source for this station. They would then use what they knew and learned to attempt to get some of the systems back online.

Upon hearing the Litharian's intent of powering up the station from their own reactor they agreed and said they would make the necessary arrangements while attempting to repair the main and emergency generators so the satellite could be self sustaining before the end of this expedition.</div>"

Especially since the Litharians were trying to avoid activating any defense or attack systems. After a few hours they did it, supplementing the station's power systems, causing the data access terminals by the Litharian command to become active. Litharian scientists then began to search them using transfer terminals to give them a familiar control scheme to shift through it. Though the virtual defense programs and firewalls would take ages to crack.

With any luck the return of power wouldn't cause any undo effects on the station or the people inside.

The Litharians made sure to contact the Wolkar to inform them of their success as well as having a center set up up for data access. Knowing their expertise with computer systems could come to great use at their facilities. Inviting Wolkar engineers to assist with teh data mining.

Throughout the rest of the station the Litharians and Karadons were patrolling deeper into the station in search of any signs of life or artifacts of the station that could be taken back for study.</div>"

As a security measure they did an initial scan of the data archives and placed them within a secured data partition, allowing them to manipulate the data safetly. Should something trigger to corrupt the files, only the partition would be corrupted and could be removed from the hardware.

Meanwhile, Wolkar expeditionary teams joined the Litharian exploration, at least one or two medics acompanying each group should anyone be injured or they come across any of the origional inhabitants in need of aid.</div>"

It's weapon systems, too, are prepared to come online. The only problem, that which also bars any information harvests, is that every system on the station is securely locked down by alien security protocols. Not only does one have to hack their way through sophisticated systems, but they would have to decipher the language all is logged in. The language in question is old, and far from recognizable.

When the Cel ships slipped out of the immaterial realm with little more than a whisper, they immediately detected the infestation. The commandant of this expedition found himself pleased. The trip had been unusually smooth. His good mood was barely hampered by the detection of inferior lifeforms on what they desired.

Arcing points of light detach themselves from the frigates, totaling to forty in all their number, and stream towards the Wolkar and Litharian ships at random. Missiles.

Thankfully most of the shots were targets at the Wolkar's cruiser. their shields and armor should buy them some time to get in some good shots. But they weren't ready to leave them hanging, their point defense systems powered up and started going to work at those missiles, they wouldn't get all of them, but a third, maybe half if they were lucky could be shot down.

The Scouts were contacted and informed of the newcomers becoming hostile and they sent their engines into full drive to get into flanking positions ASAP. The two of them almost in range, but one was on the far side of the system and would need more time.

The few lasers that were aimed at the Litharian ships raked their hulls causing a good deal of damage, but all of it superficial, so far.

Back on the station the Litharians and Karadon received the warning and looked on as a battle opened up above them. It was a quick thinking Litharian scientist who looked away from the battle and remembered that the station was armed with weapons. Using the Wolkar's translation code he accessed one of the station's weapon terminals and if it was correct they seemed to be manually controlled. All around the their central command structure more terminals were used to access the weapon systems, booting up a few of the guns, about eight in total. Trying out the controls they began aiming and firing off a few practice shots away from teh battle. Really it wasn't that hard to control them at their core level. Getting ready the scientists and soldiers who were manning the guns took aim at the enemy ships readying them for fire.</div>"

Their shields and armor were tough, but they wouldn't last forever under such an assault. The FERALs leaped from the cruiser and moved out of the direct fire line, aiming to board from their sides. Finally, the two Wolkar frigates began to open their forward cannons upon their enemies. 

Meanwhile on the station and the relief vessel Emissary Rover was beginning evacuation protocols and getting all the Wolkar engineering and medical teams onboard as well as any Litharian workers that would board the ships with them. Once procedures were underway, he had a signal sent to Ferran to inform the Sirius of the attack. He just prayed the transmission went through. At the very least, they would notice  something had happened if the daily reports stopped coming.

Some of the Wolkar had also noticed the Litharians had used their code with some success, the soldiers opting to stay behind as opposed to their orders to evacuate and man whatever turrets were left that were aimed at the battle. Soon the guns roared to life, aiming to give their fellows cover fire as they moved in to assault the enemy.</div>"

All other beam weapons either hit the Wolkar cruiser, or crossed over Litharian ships at random. They still believed their victory to be assured, by way of arrogance in their technology, and even closed the gap between their own vessels and the enemy ones.

On top of the full-steam-ahead tactics, an anomalous pulse of energy from three of the four Cel frigates was accompanied by the appearance of eerily darkly clad, armoured figures appearing all over the precursor station in groups of two and three. And then, after another pulse from two ships, even more armoured figures appeared upon the Wolkar cruiser. Their numbers, for now, were impossible to determine.</div>"

Returning the favor they continued to release barrage after barrage of plasma into the enemy vessels hoping to break down those damn shields and see what they are really made of.

Meanwhile the scouts continued to flank the Cel ships, one was finally in range but wasn't going to reveal itself until it got the OK from the other two.

Back on the station, the guns were all set up and ready to fire and fire they did, all the litharians unloaded the full wrath of the station's weapons, only something was wrong. While they had eight under their control only six were shooting. It was in that moment that teams around the central command began reporting invaders were attacking the Litharian and Karadon forces. In response they began returning fire, releasing plasma and sword against the aliens.</div>"

THeir armor was already starting to buckle under the heavy barrages when hell seemed to start breaking loose. 

""Captain! We've got boarders on the ship! They just materialized someh-AAAH!"" THe transmission was cut out by some sort of energy blast, the aged old wolf already hearing the battle outside of the bridge. ""This ship may be lost, but like hell it will fall into their hands. All bridge crew abandon ship. I will take full control. Get to the escape pods immediately.""

The captain's words held a note of finality, the other wolkar not arguing and giving a solemn salute before they went to the pods. With the captain directly connected to all the ship systems he took the cruiser's weapons offline and redirected all power to the shields and engines, his ship lurching forward with a fresh burst of speed and began to close on the enemy vessels.

""Computer, initiate automated self destruct. Authorization Beta-zero-charlie-seven. Initiate with a one minute delay.""

The screens onboard all turned an eerie red with the timer counting down, the Captain raising the PA microphone and patching it into the Comms array broadcasting to all channels. 

""This is Captain Marchok of the Wolkar Exploration cruiser Ker'ra. To whoever had dared to attack us, I tell you this: You have assaulted an exploration and relief effort investigating a distress call from YOUR station. However, when we come here seeking knowledge of a new people  and to bring you aid and medicine, you spurn us by attacking civilians! Doctors and engineers, and technicians who have never seen the battlefield until you chose them as a target, slaughtering those who only sought to help you! To those honorless nikriin who would attack a relief effort: This is from the pack! Aal hi liivor mahfaeraak ko ausul!!""

As soon as the cruiser had gotten between two of the enemy ships the center of the cruiser seemed to violently rupture, exploding out with incredible force that would threaten to obliterate the two ships it was next to and likely do harm to the other two remaining.

On the frigates and the station, the Wolkar listened to the broadcast final words, snarls growing from their throats and tears of loss in their eyes. Those on the ships renewed their assault, growing more bold and almost reckless as they cared almost nothing for their own lives at that point. All that mattered was killing the enemies that were remaining. Those on the station soon found their own prey, the soldiers still onboard practically throwing themselves directly at the armored enemies with abandon. They punched and sliced and burned without clear thought or reason, running solely on rage and instinct as a few even removed their helmets and sank their teeth into the necks of those they fought. It was a display the Litharians would find courageous if they were not appalled by the sheer ferocity and brutality shown.</div>"

Similarly, the Cel boarding parties found themselves backing into corners and unleashing bursts of psionics in self defense, rather than as they had envisioned: While marching on the corpses of enemies.

They tried to redirect the Wolkar suicide ship by opening an FTL portal in front of it, but they were too late to save their lead frigate and keep another from being crippled. That, in addition to the fire of the station's defenses and the fact that boarding parties which teleported back were bloodied and maimed... Well, they had no intention to stick around. Those shadowy warships turned and fled at full speed, prepared to enter FTL and depart in a minute's time. Messages had already been sent back to the nearest Lord Commandant. They would know of what had transpired here, for better or worse.</div>"

Though they were not done.

Back on the station Litharian fire teams continued to engage the remaining invaders, casualties were appearing, but they didn't stop them from fighting. Their allies sure didn't seem to have any lack of faith in their victory. But the true surge of gusto came when the Cel ships began their retreat.

""Switch to Electro-Dispersion Rounds!"" Shouted a Litharian Leutenant over the INTCOM, ""Try to take one alive!""

In tandem, all Litharian soldiers took what cover they could in an attempt to switch rounds as ordered. Meanwhile the Karadons contineud to fire dense plasma rounds without an effort to change over.</div>"

With good speed the FERALs were able to get close enough for their grenade rounds to do serious damage to the engines with the aim to cripple them, the armored mechs boarding and latching onto the ship before using their collective boosters to start pulling the slagged vessel back towards the station to be dealt with.

While the Litharians were moving to non lethal ammunition to take one in alive, the Wolkar were using less... civilized ways to take them alive mostly. While a few were resorting to the immobilizing foam so they can be interrogated and executed publically, most just opted to use the retractable blades to hack off the legs of the enemies that they had successfully beaten to a bloody pulp and cauterizing the wounds with the flamethrower. If the Wolkar were more level headed they might have concluded to leave the crippled ones alive and let them go afterward so they could spend the rest of their lives as invalids. However, their traditions were clear. Those who attack the pack shall meet their end. And meet it they shall.</div>"

Indeed, it put up an admirable fight for something to so damaged. Unfortunately for the Wolkar who attached themselves do it, they were not having any of that dragging. The Cel ship writhed and twisted, metal bending in ward and being sucked towards an unstable core that was set to self destruct. The vessel crumpled like a tin can, then simply fizzled out of existence with a warping of space. All that was left was a very fine and brief shimmering where it had once been, and even that lasted only a millisecond. The other Cel ships, the two remaining, fled into the nebulous space they used to move quickly across the galaxy. They were gone.

As for the Cel who were in the station, well, they were in a bad way. Upon seeing what the Wolkar would do to them if they were incapacitated, most resorted to executing themselves. Part loyalty, and part cowardice. These were not hardened troops. Those who were captured also executed themselves, if through less conventional means. The bits and pieces of Psionics which had detonated the cranium of their user littered the floors. One, maybe two Cel troops could successfully be captured.</div>"

A collection of soldiers had their guns aimed at one of the fallen aliens who didn't explode like the others. It seemed like it was alive. ""I want this thing Psionically and bio-mechanically secured now!"" A litharian Captain shouted. They managed to bring the creature back to the science vessel and started to prepare of of the specimen tanks for containment. All the while stripping the alien of weapons and armor.

In space the HAMMERs watched as their prize seemed to consume itself, the poor FERALs who were around it, they couldn't tell if they made it out or not.

But with the enemy gone they began to fly back to the station. Issuing orders to continue grabbing as much data and information from the station as possible. Given the effectiveness of those weapons that became a new priority for recovery, even if they had to detach one and bring it home for later research. ""We have chased off the enemy for now, but two of their ships escaped. Expect retribution to be coming.

Each one they tried to capture quickly killed themselves as soon as it saw them, covered in the blood and guts  of it's fellows and scaring them to suicide. They likely knew that whatever pain they might feel from their heads exploding would be MOST CERTAINLY less painful than what these monstrous beasts would do to them. Cursing they eventually gave up, the captain telling his crew to use tranq darts whenever they got the chance though knew few if any would be properly stopped before they killed themselves. Instead the Wolkar commander went to find the leader of the Litharian forces, seeing them taking their prisoner away.

""You fought well. How did your people fare? How many more deaths will these cowards be made to answer for?""

It was not as much any sort of competitive question and more a measure of  the crimes these creatures had committed on the Litharians, most of the surviving Wolkar seeming to be much more friendly to them after fighting side by side.</div>"

A prototype, but still a great boon to any who wished to advance their computing software. That, and those big honkin' guns.

With everything finally calming down the Litharians returned to their original tasks, the most important was to mine as much data as possible. Yet when that was done and they had their prize secured in special data partitions on board the science vessel they started to go to work on the guass cannons the station had. The weapons themselves weren't particularly complex and could probably be replicated if given enough time and research. With that said they detached two of them to have them stored in the cargo bay of the science vessel. The ammo on the other hand was something out of a science fiction book. It was an interesting design that helped augment the weapons firing power allowing it to pack an even more devastating punch. While the scientists didn't understand anything about it, they took as much as they could find to see if they could replicate it given more time and better facilities back in Litharian space.

On a more living note the alien specimen was transferred to a secure holding tank and both bio-mechanical securities and Psionic securities were successfully activated. It was only a matter of time until the subject awoke and proper studies could be had. Similarly several bodies of the aliens were and their scant equipment were gathered, not much was learned from their gear and it was quick to realize that whatever these creatures had came from their minds, making their corpses and the one live one much more valuable.

""We aren't sure yet, current body count has us at over 20 lost, but we are still turning up bodies. With any luck the MIAs will start showing up alive, but my hopes aren't high."" Said the Litharian Commander in response to the Wolkar's question. Whatever they were they came out of nowhere and hit they hard.

A message was sent to the Wolkar fleet, warning them of the Litharian's intention to detonate the portable reactor core and send the station into the sun.</div>"

It was mainly designed to carry medical supplies so they could not fit whole, though the engineers were careful to memorize the assembly process. They were not difficult to break down and put together though as much as the ammunition. The design was.. remarkable to say the least. Many of the engineers were even arguing over who should lead the research into learning it's construction and learning the fabrication process to make more. 

The Wolkar commander nodded solemnly. ""We've lost around 25 on the station, and there were about 100 estimated dead on the cruiser before it's last stand.. The frigates are busy picking up the escape pods from the cruiser to recover the crew that managed to escape and we'll have a more solid number. They will pay dearly for this. I know I am not officially permitted to say, but I have no doubt the Alpha council will seek retribution along with you. If your people seek allies, they will find them in spades.""</div>"

The Litharians made their final preparations over a span of the next few days making sure that anything of theirs that wasn't a part of the reactor core's structure was taken back into the science vessel. Including the Modular Command Structure, taking it back apart and storing it away safely.

With the scientific being handled by scientists, several soldiers took to gathering up the bodies of their fallen, collecting them for a proper burial once they arrived home. Only after the scientists scanned the bodies for any sort of biological weapon that would have been brewing inside the corpses.

With that the ships in orbit began breaking off from patrol and started returning towards the station to pick up surviving soldiers and scientists. At this time the Litharians made contact with the Wolkar warning them that their time on the station was running short.</div>"

The Wolkar made similar preparations with cleaning up their own dead though they did not gather the bodies. Rather, they removed the dog tags from all of their dead breatheren and laid their arms over their chest in a ceremonial manner. Rover, being the highest authority on hand, said a few words over the gathered bodies which were brought together in one of the larger rooms. The Litharians would easily tell when the ceremony ended by the loud collective howl of all the Wolkar on the station, saying their final farewells. When the reactor would blow, it would make this station their vessel to whatever afterlife they would find. 

With the names of the fallen listed with, the deceased captain chief among them, they all retreated to the two remaining frigates and left to a safe distance. As these preparations were underway Rover dispatched the signal with the list of dead to the Alpha Council. It was only an hour after that the Sirius went on the net to announce a memorial service  to take place for the fallen one week after the return of the emergency response fleet and extended a formal invitation for the Litharian Council of Masters to attend as the Wolkar would also honor the losses of their Litharian allies as well as their own.</div>"

The science vessel took off first being the larger and more valuable of the two. Orbiting the station with the Wolkar the majority waited for the final HAMMER to join them for the return trip.

On the station a few scientists and soldiers cut a few lines and switched off a few of the reactor's coolant systems, making it start to go critical. Though they would have a good hour before it finally blew, so the men still on board slowly made their way to the HAMMER and into orbit.

One of the HAMMERs gave the order to engage warp drives to finally get moving back towards home. Though two of the scouts were left behind to make sure the station was destroyed when the reactor blew. Cloaking to make sure that if more alien ships came they wouldn't be seen right away.

The weapons and pieces of equipment they recovered from the aliens would be brought to the Natre-Dorme University of the sciences to be examined by the Wolkar's brightest minds andto possibly replicate the ammunition used by the turrets they recovered. One of the gauss rounds would be in the military section of the university where only authorized personnel would access it, the more mundane and safe portions being made more available for the whole of the faculty to examine. Their estimated date of arrival would be Galactic Date 5371-249 with the appointed time of the memorial to be 256 of the same year.</div>"

The captured Cel was panicking. They didn't know where they were, but they certainly were not back on one of the Reaper frigates.</div>"

Satisfied that the station would meet it's end soon enough.

Back on board the science vessel Litharians were passively scanning other bits and pieces of the foreign tech when a few alarms started to go off, the alien was awake. As if in unison, every scientist turned to look at the Cel through the thick glass that made up it's container. Several rushed over to see the specimen move and learn as it came too. But the biggest change came when a pair of scientist began fiddling with a nearby console causing a few lights inside the containment cell to switch on. This was all followed by a disebmodied voice to come throw a speaker system, ""Hello, can you understand us?""</div>"

One Scientists is particular stepped up to the tank, making his presence known to the alien inside. Then he began to make a system of gestures, first gesturing to his head, trying to hint that he is capable of intelligent thought.</div>"

The scientists quit trying to be nice about contact and elect for more aggressive measures.

On two of the tank's sides the walls slid open to reveal a pair of mechanical clamps each one snapped a few times before hovering over the specimen, threatening to restrain it.

Back outside of the tank the scientists began flicking switches and levels readying something. Though whatever it was wasn't made a abundantly clear just yet.</div>"

Far off, in the deep and particularly dark stretch of space, the Cel savoured the knowledge of new civilizations to subjugate and subsequently exterminate. Well, some of them did. The frigates to escape the conflict of First Contact were captured and hastily brought under the control of a particularly powerful vassal of the Emperor who deemed this information too valuable for his fellow lords. The wealth of knowledge that could be assimilated could boost his power in the empire a million times over.</div>"

If it wouldn't talk to them, they'd break in an force it's mind to talk.

Back outside the tanks the Litharians gathered around to observe the effects of the Psionic Reader. It was a temperamental device that treated several species quiet poorly and they wanted to see if this new race was compatible or not.</div>"

The precursors seeded this dust and rock and ice with the life made in foundries billions of years ago. Which precursors? Hardly a question anyone can answer. The remnants of the past, Old Ones formed from stardust who barely remember their birth, artifacts and ruins left behind by countless dead empires, they are all tools with which to ascend. Some empire builders were created by Old Ones. Some grew, and built interstellar nations with their own sweat and blood. 

In the beginning, there was Life. Life flourished, for it was wise and old. It had existed many millennia and learned the way of things. It learned what was good, and what wasn’t. It learned how to navigate its own world first, then it struck out into the void with metal boxes that pushed themselves. It crafted weapons with which to suppress its own ambition, and entertain a taste for violence. It built mountainous structures of glass and steel to defend its thinkers and workers. Life flourished. And then, when every star in the sky was accounted for, Life looked around and grew confused. It was made to expand and learn, was it not? Surely there was more to life than this single star cluster? How many other lives had been subjugated and exterminated to serve the cause of this one, insignificant Life? This star cluster was not special. It had arms, and a heart, and a black void around it, and that was all. Life thought this insufficient. They took another star cluster, because they could. Then another, and another, and another. Life never met another living thing that had as many stars as it did. It began to believe, perhaps with some arrogance, that there were no others who had so many stars as it did. Life was mistaken, naturally. Life came upon a star cluster that was more than six times the size of the home star cluster. Clearly this was a place to be valued, and conquered with much haste. It did conquer, and it built great citadels all across the star cluster. It dominated the forces of gravity and time. It was at the waning of life’s golden age that it learned how it had erred. This star cluster belonged to other, equally great lives. They were not pleased. They ate life, tore it asunder, and hunted it. They consumed countless citadels life had worked so long to construct. They had no pity for the intruder, and hunted it all the way back to its home. The Hunters did not expect, however, to find the most stalwart defenses so soon. Life and the Hunters battled for thousands of years over the home of Life, for it had an equally extraordinary amount of time to become so well defended that nothing could break its defenses in a mere millennia, or even a thousand millennias. Their war would be eternal, but it would be a far away thing that only echoed across the stars every few million years. It is nothing for you to concern yourself with, little offspring of Life and the Hunters.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Detail the last thousand years of existence. Or less, if they are an extremely young race. Be sure to highlight things like the emergence of the current leader, and how they responded to acquiring the ability to traverse the stars. 

Add whatever else you feel is necessary. Those sections listed above are only the required information. Since the galaxy being used is stupidly huge, one may have more than a few solar systems under their belt at the start of things. 

The application here is for the approval of new species and their respective civilizations. The sister application at The Endless Struggle, for beings within those species who stand above the rest as something truly redoubtable. The concept here is to manage both the progress of an interstellar species, and the progress of a person who is a lone soul among trillions in what is likely to be a hostile galaxy. That means moving between grand-scale, nation style RP and more personal, person-to-person RP. Do not just produce an app and hope it will get accepted. 

If I did not explicitly invite you, contact me and make sure I'm aware that you wish to join in before beginning on any sort of writing. I like to help people along during application creation, so that one doesn't have to write out everything before learning whether or not they'll be accepted. Also, feel free to ask questions.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> N

<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Extreme emphasis on technological advancement. Interest and advancement in Psionics and Biological Manipulation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> The Litharian homeworld of Havatk is a natural marvel. The planet is covered in lush jungles that can reach up to 400 feet in height and thanks to an abnormal weather system a mountainous tundra can exist right next to a thriving jungle that is teeming with life. The day cycle being 32 standard hours with an even spread of night and day, the day being lit up by the bright blue sun that Havatk orbits.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> The Litharian race is reptilian in genis, having a low digigrade form of legs with a soft spike coming off of each joint, like knee and heel plates. Their feet are a form of two toed, clawed foot that has a sort of natural back appendage that acts as a heel. The torso is covered in chitin plates that form a sort of natural armor in the form of overlapping “Vs”. The arms follow the same suit of chitin plates that move to form a standard set. The hands are very human-like in the respect of how they have four fingers and a thumb with the same knuckle count, only each finger is tipped with a pointed claw. The head of this race has a scaled set of lips that are rather rigid and form a staggered mouth line. The chin forms a rather defined jaw line that wraps around to the nonexistent ears. The eyes are normally reptilian that can range from white to red to green to blue to orange to black in color scheme. The “hair” of this race is a form of horns or head spikes or tuffs that can take hundreds of different forms from fins down the back to horns that curl back around to give bull points.

Litharians breathe the standard oxygenated mixture that is rather common with other interstellar species.

Thanks to a hunter like culture system the Lithrain race is well adapted to activity making them well suited to fast running, tenacious fighting, and the ability to take a punch and keep on punching. The most noticeable feature of the Litharians physical aspect is their incredible endurance and advanced sense of sight. Another noticeable feat is their dense muscle structure. This doesn’t make them super strong, but a “ripped” Litharian wouldn’t look “jacked”, but more like a toned man thanks to the tight muscle fibers.
Government Type: The Litharian Government is similar to a feudal structure but with definite caste influence. The governmental structure consists of a set of five leaders.

The first being the Master of War, also known as the Master of the Hunt; his/her job is to organize, plan, and command the military might of the Litharians. The second is the Master of Structure, also known as the Master of the People; his/her job is to oversee, work with, and organize the civilian population of the Litharians. The third is the Master of Others, also known as the Master of Allies; his/her job is to manage, negotiate, and work with other races and species to make and manage allies. The fourth is the Master of Eyes, also known as the Master of Spies; his/her job is to make sure that any secret the enemy has is known to the rest of the masters. The fifth is the Master of Advancement, also known as the Master of Science; hi/her job is to study, research, and create new and wondrous things for the Litharian populous. This collective is known as the Council of Masters.

For one to succeed a master the master must pick an apprentice from one of the members in their field of domain. From very early on the apprentice is chosen and for decades the apprentice stays at the master’s side learning everything they can before finally taking their role as the new master when the old one retires, dies, or is otherwise indisposed. Should a master be seen as unfit for service the other masters can vote to remove the master in question replacing him with a new accolade that is deemed most worthy and not the previous master’s apprentice to avoid a succession of an equally unworthy man.
Under each master is a hierarchy so all the responsibility doesn’t fall on just one man. This structure exists with two Sub-masters, and under each Sub-master is five Journeymen, and then under each Journeyman are ten Apprentices. After the Apprentices a collection of sub-ranks that varies depending on the master’s position: the Master of War having Generals, Majors, Privates, etc. The Master of Structure having Senators, Overseers, Mayors, etc.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The Litharain history is a tale of creation over adversity. The Litharians were at first a group of organized hunters, fighting, hunting, and gathering on their homeworld to simply survive and live. As the centuries pasted they advanced and made ideas into reality, making cities, and car, and planes to help make life on a hostile planet easier and more civil, but the call of the hunt would never leave. As time went on the idea of hunting became a rite of passage, a test of skill, and above all a way of life. Friends would spend days in silence talking only through body language and silent gestures, lovers leaving for months to live together courting through games of spear and rifle, or dispute being settled over who could bring back the most dangerous prize. This persisted up until the modern day where a code of honor through the hunt became law; making a society that respected and honored one another.

Several centuries later the Litharians reached out to the stars and as their understanding grew, so did their knowledge, before long practical space travel became a reality and before long colonies on new worlds and interstellar travel expanded their reach. Finding only new hunting grounds and homes they continued to expand and thrive. To ensure the success of the future the Council of Masters was formed to regulate and manage the growing empire that was the Litharian people.

One of the most defining moments in Litharian history was the discovery of their first intelligent race on a planet later known as Cathidet. A dangerous and hostile world where everything seemed to have been evolved to kill, maim, and consume. Amid the carnage they found the Karadon race and though relations didn’t start on good ground, they saw past their differences and became allies, taking the Karadons to the stars and over the next few centuries became closer allies and friends that the only word that could be used is family. The two races basically became one and together they began advancing to the technological juggernaut they now are.

For the Karadons, the Litharians found that their genetic structure was a marvel of nature and began giving them natural abilities that would make the race all the more evolved and powerful. For the Litharians, technology was a road that would give them the power that nature denied them. Advanced materials gave them safety, the discovery and weaponization of plasma gave them strength, and the knowledge of the universe gave them abilities unlike any seen before. Cloaking for the hunters, warp travel for the colonists, and for the people, new medicines and chances that Havatk could never provide.

It was then that the Litharians began their focus down the technological route, focusing on harnessing the wonders of plasma and the synthesizing of new stronger materials. As the years passed and the secrets came to fruition, plasma became a necessity for the Litharian race, fueling their ships, powering their weapons, and providing light in their homes. With power then came discovery, new materials created from the old ones gave the Litharians lighter, stronger, better materials to make armor, ships, and new types of homes able to withstand the dangers other planets would have in store.

It was only in the past few centuries that other intelligent and spacefaring races were discovered, some peaceful allies, others formidable foes. War and peace became a persisting event that only spurred further advancement, making better weapons, better armors, and new ways of warfare that were never know before. Psionics, a frightening new threat found in other space faring races dawned and created a new field of learning. As time passed, so did understanding now the Litharian populous knows of the strength in the mind, learning new ways to shape the galaxy with mere thoughts.

Today the Litharian race has a solid place in the galaxy still striving to find new allies, hunt new prey, and become a power that teaches honor to all who exist.

The current hierarchy consists of Master of War Karasis, who came to succession when his master retired. Master of Structure Jutaric, who came into power when her master retired. Master of Others Hitharis, who came into place when his master passed away of natural causes. The Master of Eyes Xilanthis, who came into power when the pervious Master of Eyes was removed after being convicted of treason. The Master of Advancement Nithurk, who came into his place of knowledge after his master was killed in a lab experiment.


<span class=""bb-b"">Species Name:</span> Karadon

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> N

<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Biological Manipulation and Breeding

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> Cathidet, a huge barren world made of deserts and mountains. The day cycle of Cathidet is 56 Standard hours, but thanks to the three blazing suns 48 of those hours are lit up with scorching sunlight, making patches of shade a rare occurrence. Only in the crooks of mountains can plant life go, making most of it’s inhabitants carnivorous killers. The world is a well-known death world, recommended to be avoided at all costs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> If ever there was a warrior race, this would be it. The Karadon race is a bipedal, humanoid bunch with thick scaled skin, similar to a few kinds of dinosaurs or komodo dragons. The skin being quite resilient to forms of impact. Two digigrade legs and standard arms, with three toed clawed feet and five fingered clawed hands. Four eyes, usually a primary color and slitted and a wide mouth built for carnivorous eating. Their heads are covered in scales and can have a variety of horn patterns ranging from a collection of spikes, much like a porcupines back to devil horns that can extend a few feet. They have tails that are just thick, beefy muscle ended with a bony mass to act as a club, usually about seven feet long in total. The race themselves have no distinguishable features between male and female other than females tend to have wider, more flat tails with a smaller bone mass at the end. Karadons average between 10-12 feet in height and are stacked with dense muscle. Their brains are somewhat underdeveloped and more primal compared to other intelligent races, but they still possess the ability of speech, tool construction, and tactical sense.

Karadons breathe a standard oxygenated mix common with interstellar species, but having grown up on a dusty and desert based planet, their lungs have a sort of natural filter. It doesn’t do much for fine chemicals and pathogens, but it helps them to operate at peak efficiency in swirling dust and sand storms.

Karadons are a very versatile race genetically, able to have their genetic structure modified and easily change to make new forms of Karadons. With the assistance of the Litharians, the Karadons have been modified and introduced to other genetic materials to change them physically. This would add spikes to the backs and arms of some, or increase the size of others to 20+ feet. In the more internal side, certain modifications allow some Karadon’s the ability to breathe underwater or breathe a flammable gas that can be lit with “sparkers” in their mouths. Usually these modifications are not compatible so a fire breathing Karadon most likely can’t breathe underwater.

<span class=""bb-b"">Government Type:</span> Karadon’s don’t have a government system of their own. It is more of a tribal structure with castes and sects banding together to survive and hunt with no real hierarchy or leadership. True, an Alpha usually takes a leader position of a pack, but his authority is only for that pack. When the Litharians came and integrated with them, the Karadons found many places within Litharian culture. Whether as soldiers, bodyguards, pack-men, or even family members to some.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The history of the Karadons is nothing to intricate; through several millennium they have survived and evolved on their homeworld fighting against the dangers that infest it. It wasn’t until the Litharian race discovered Cathidet and upon reaching its surface that the Karadons began to advance at a rapid rate. Joining the Litharians on their ships and utilizing their technology did they find a place among the galaxy. In the few hundred years that they have been integrating themselves with another race so different from their own, a sort of symbiotic relationship has formed, making Karadons and Litharians are frightful force.

Amid the carnage they found the Karadon race and though relations didn’t start on good ground, they saw past their differences and became allies, taking the Karadons to the stars and over the next few centuries became closer allies and friends that the only word that could be used is family. The two races basically became one and together they began advancing to the technological juggernaut they now are.

For the Karadons, the Litharians found that their genetic structure was a marvel of nature and began giving them natural abilities that would make the race all the more evolved and powerful. For the Litharians, technology was a road that would give them the power that nature denied them. Advanced materials gave them safety, the discovery and weaponization of plasma gave them strength, and the knowledge of the universe gave them abilities unlike any seen before. Cloaking for the hunters, warp travel for the colonists, and for the people, new medicines and chances that Havatk could never provide.

It was then that the Litharians began their focus down the technological route, focusing on harnessing the wonders of plasma and the synthesizing of new stronger materials. As the years passed and the secrets came to fruition, plasma became a necessity for the Litharian race, fueling their ships, powering their weapons, and providing light in their homes. With power then came discovery, new materials created from the old ones gave the Litharians lighter, stronger, better materials to make armor, ships, and new types of homes able to withstand the dangers other planets would have in store.

It was only in the past few centuries that other intelligent and spacefaring races were discovered, some peaceful allies, others formidable foes. War and peace became a persisting event that only spurred further advancement, making better weapons, better armors, and new ways of warfare that were never know before. Psionics, a frightening new threat found in other space faring races dawned and created a new field of learning. As time passed, so did understanding now the Litharian populous knows of the strength in the mind, learning new ways to shape the galaxy with mere thoughts.

Today the Litharian race has a solid place in the galaxy still striving to find new allies, hunt new prey, and become a power that teaches honor to all who exist.

The current hierarchy consists of Master of War Karasis, who came to succession when his master retired. Master of Structure Jutaric, who came into power when her master retired. Master of Others Hitharis, who came into place when his master passed away of natural causes. The Master of Eyes Xilanthis, who came into power when the pervious Master of Eyes was removed after being convicted of treason. The Master of Advancement Nithurk, who came into his place of knowledge after his master was killed in a lab experiment.


<span class=""bb-b"">Species Name:</span> Karadon

<span class=""bb-b"">Human Ancestry:</span> N

<span class=""bb-b"">Racial Orientation:</span> Biological Manipulation and Breeding

<span class=""bb-b"">Homeworld Type:</span> Cathidet, a huge barren world made of deserts and mountains. The day cycle of Cathidet is 56 Standard hours, but thanks to the three blazing suns 48 of those hours are lit up with scorching sunlight, making patches of shade a rare occurrence. Only in the crooks of mountains can plant life go, making most of it’s inhabitants carnivorous killers. The world is a well-known death world, recommended to be avoided at all costs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> If ever there was a warrior race, this would be it. The Karadon race is a bipedal, humanoid bunch with thick scaled skin, similar to a few kinds of dinosaurs or komodo dragons. The skin being quite resilient to forms of impact. Two digigrade legs and standard arms, with three toed clawed feet and five fingered clawed hands. Four eyes, usually a primary color and slitted and a wide mouth built for carnivorous eating. Their heads are covered in scales and can have a variety of horn patterns ranging from a collection of spikes, much like a porcupines back to devil horns that can extend a few feet. They have tails that are just thick, beefy muscle ended with a bony mass to act as a club, usually about seven feet long in total. The race themselves have no distinguishable features between male and female other than females tend to have wider, more flat tails with a smaller bone mass at the end. Karadons average between 10-12 feet in height and are stacked with dense muscle. Their brains are somewhat underdeveloped and more primal compared to other intelligent races, but they still possess the ability of speech, tool construction, and tactical sense.

Karadons breathe a standard oxygenated mix common with interstellar species, but having grown up on a dusty and desert based planet, their lungs have a sort of natural filter. It doesn’t do much for fine chemicals and pathogens, but it helps them to operate at peak efficiency in swirling dust and sand storms.

Karadons are a very versatile race genetically, able to have their genetic structure modified and easily change to make new forms of Karadons. With the assistance of the Litharians, the Karadons have been modified and introduced to other genetic materials to change them physically. This would add spikes to the backs and arms of some, or increase the size of others to 20+ feet. In the more internal side, certain modifications allow some Karadon’s the ability to breathe underwater or breathe a flammable gas that can be lit with “sparkers” in their mouths. Usually these modifications are not compatible so a fire breathing Karadon most likely can’t breathe underwater.

<span class=""bb-b"">Government Type:</span> Karadon’s don’t have a government system of their own. It is more of a tribal structure with castes and sects banding together to survive and hunt with no real hierarchy or leadership. True, an Alpha usually takes a leader position of a pack, but his authority is only for that pack. When the Litharians came and integrated with them, the Karadons found many places within Litharian culture. Whether as soldiers, bodyguards, pack-men, or even family members to some.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> The history of the Karadons is nothing to intricate; through several millennium they have survived and evolved on their homeworld fighting against the dangers that infest it. It wasn’t until the Litharian race discovered Cathidet and upon reaching its surface that the Karadons began to advance at a rapid rate. Joining the Litharians on their ships and utilizing their technology did they find a place among the galaxy. In the few hundred years that they have been integrating themselves with another race so different from their own, a sort of symbiotic relationship has formed, making Karadons and Litharians are frightful force.

Species Name: Wolkar

Human Ancestry: N

Racial Orientation: Cunning and voracious fighters with a great curiosity for new technology and discovery. Heavy tech focus fighting with group strategy and tactics.

Home world Type: A lush forest planet with sky cities hovering overhead. The Wolkar designed intricate systems to distribute light to the forests below to simulate the day cycle despite the planet’s constructed hi-tech shell. Primarily civilians only go down when they are certified to show they can survive on their own in case of emergency due to the vicious predators down below. Despite the few civilians that go down, it  is used often by the military and guard units for training.

Physiology: The Wolkar are best described as wolf men capable of traveling on both to legs or moving on all fours for heightened mobility. Their musculature ranges from light and quick to hulking berserkers, varying mainly thanks to variances concerning where they choose to apply themselves within the pack. Those who are more tech oriented have smaller frames and builds to better fit within repair conduits and tend to have fur colors that match more with the metal grating they find themselves in. Their fingers are also much more nimble to handle the smaller tools needed for their jobs, dexterity gained by working with small circuits over time. The packs that are more warrior based will be much larger in build with stronger limbs for fighting, even their claws gaining length and a keener edge for that added combat advantage. Typically the claws would only be used when challenging another for dominance if done in the more traditional style of challenge or as impromptu tools for carving out arrows and spears should they find themselves running low on supplies and need to create improvised weapons. The more modern tech has removed the need to use these claws as weapons to the point that it is almost taboo to use them for most combat situations. Though some fur colors are more easily found in certain packs most colors can be found within the collective. The ears of the Wolkar are typically canine with tufts of fur inside to act as a barrier for extremely high pitched noise. Typically these ears can move on their own, coming farther up to hear more clearly or press close to the head and tight over the fur tufts to muffle ear piercing sounds like the roar of a ship’s engine. Wolkar can see easily in the dark, their eyes easily adjusting to various levels of light. However, quick changes from one extreme to another, such as going from jet black night to a piercing white light of a flashbang grenade, can strongly disorient them and leave them recovering for several minutes without eye gear to lessen the effect. Sense of smell has over the years been muted down over the years due to the recent rush of exposure to starship fumes and other pollutants, being somewhere below tracking dogs and a standard human in terms of smell sensitivity. The few packs who have their warriors spend most of their time in the forests below the sky-cities can however train their sense of smell to return to their original sharpness.

Government Type: Pack-type hierarchy. Similar to wolf packs, the Wolkar believe in strong leadership and right of challenge by combat. The Alpha is the overall leader of the pack with a Beta and Omega below him. In order to become the Alpha, one has to first defeat the Omega and keep his position for one month before he can then challenge the Beta. Once he becomes the Beta he must wait a year before he can challenge the Alpha. This is only within the pack and there is a collective known as the Alpha Council. The head of the council is known as the Sirius, the only one the other Alpha’s follow and obey. This tiered challenge system ensures strong leadership while also ensuring that power is not constantly changing hands. Even after an Alpha is defeated he is then made into the Beta so they can guide the new Alpha in their duties. Despite the competitive nature needed  in such a society, it is well recognized that you only call a challenge when there is no immediate danger or when it will not cause chaos in a time of trouble. In times of war a challenge would only be issued if the majority believed the current Sirius was incapable or negligent. The Wolkar are surprisingly a close knit community, acting as a massive family while even accepting outsiders into their pack so long as they pass the proper tests and trials to prove their resolve to join the pack. 

History: Originally a tribal culture, they were primarily hunters and farmers for centuries. They were at the stage of going from using skilled artisans to industrialization when a freighter ship crash landed on their planet, causing first contact to be established with the rest of the galaxy and allowing the Wolkar their first grasp of true technology.  It had been such a large leap from where they were that many had delved headlong into studying, and soon mastering, these new devices. In short order the Wolkar went from catching up to the advances in technology to becoming pioneers in the fields, using their cunning and analyzing gained hunting the predators of the wilds to figuring out new advances and applications of technology. Today they have made floating sky-cities which cover almost the entirety of the forest below, using advanced systems to deliver sunlight and rain water to maintain the ecosystem. They have also made themselves well renowned for their mercenaries and bounty hunters, becoming a base of the galactic mercenary guild in exchange for access to the advanced battle armors and weapons the Wolkar have created under the condition they not be sold to the other nations behind their backs. While the Wolkar have been happy to sell their technology used for agriculture or medicine, trading military equipment is highly regulated  and dealt with most harshly if any smuggler is found trying to smuggle Wolkar tech off of the planet. Their overall specialization lies in their advanced power armor and cybernetics augmentation. While they only use robotic limb weapons in the case of wounded veterans on active duty, they do have most Wolkar set up with a cybernetic connector port at the back of the neck, serving to connect them directly to technology. Whether it be citizens connecting directly to the galactic net or soldiers wiring their brains to work their armor weapons with a thought, this connection gives the Wolkar unrivaled control over technology. They have even created strength assist technology that works in tandem with their body’s motions, acting as added muscle that works in sync with the user’s actual body. These advancements were later pushed to the next level when they discovered a new mineral ore which they later called Beskad, becoming many times more durable than what had previously been the galaxy’s strongest malleable metal that can be found naturally. To this day all Wolkar ships are plated with this rare metal, used only when durability was  the absolute top priority in the construction of anything that could use metal. While even Wolkar children are capable of creating basic robotics, there is a university dedicated to creating new machines. There is already a host of high grade war mechs and tanks, not limited to the newest weapon in the Wolkar arsenal: The FERALS. 

These armored mechs can be heavily modified to suit different roles in battle from heavy missile support, to artillery, to high speed close combat specialist vehicles. They are designed to only be operable through a Wolkar neural connector and sport a wide arsenal. They are all equipped with flight boosters, quick boosters for evasion, as well as a energy armor system which, with the right tinkering and modification, can be expended to create a shockwave of devastating energy. In addition, each part is highly customizable, even capable of exchanging the standard two leg design for a tank leg unit or even four legs for stability. A FERAL can hold several weapons. Typically it has one for each hand, and two back units. While most FERALs found in the field  will carry missiles, standard energy rifles, and a grenade launcher, most of the more notable and specialized FERAL pilots equip their units with an energy blade to cut through heavy armor. The back units can carry EX boosters to boost maneuverability, carry missiles, or even energy and rail cannons for doling out a long ranged barrage. While the NORMALs are used for the standard soldier and are only about 16 feet tall and lack the mobility and armor of their companions, the NEXTs used by the more elite pilots are 32 feet tall and are much more powerful.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Alignment:</span> Member of the Reaper Caste under the joint leadership of Master of War Karasis and Master of Eyes Xilanthis

<span class=""bb-b"">Physiology:</span> Litharian, trained in the Psionic arts, specifically for anti-psionic intrusion and offensive psionic attack.

<span class=""bb-b"">Psychology:</span> Virathus is rather easy going, having a sort of “don’t care” attitude. Not to say he is detached or lazy, just that he is ready to deal with the consequences of an action. That being said he knows that focus, alertness, and dedication make a good soldier, so when the need comes he can put on a serious face to accomplish his objective. But when the uniform isn’t on he does know how to crack a joke and enjoy a good drink with good company. Suspected psychological trauma from losing both parents at age 19, but no evidence to a lasting trauma has been turned up.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Virathus is a Litharian with a light grey skin, with black and white highlights running along his torso and limbs. With a pair of “dragon’s horns” and a set of light red eyes he looks somewhat intimidating. Along his body lie a collection of scars, a group of small ones running along his left side and arm from knee to shoulder and a large one across with right breast plate going from right shoulder to mid torso. A fit and toned body he is a trained fighter with an affinity for leave.

<span class=""bb-b"">Status:</span> Harbinger in the 7th Reaper Caste

<span class=""bb-b"">Items of Note:</span> While a member of the Reaper Caste with access to advanced armor and weaponry, he does have a few personal items to replace the standard issue armaments

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom OMEN Class Plasma Sniper Rifle (Modified by Virathus himself)</span>
     - Modified with a special scope that has Thermal, Night, UV, Infrared, Psionic, and Bio-Material Vision
     - Advanced round fire chamber able to fire Incendiary, Electro-Dispersion, Explosive, Tracer, and Rail Rounds (Tracer rounds are not plasma charge based and must be loaded in physically unlike the other types.) [Electro-Dispersion Rounds can be adjusted for voltage ranging from riot shock to “fry them from the inside out.”]
     - Front barrel can be folded over turning the sniper into an assault rifle, reducing range, ballistic speed, plasma density, and some ammo types, but gains increased rate of fire. (Retains Incendiary, Electro-Dispersion, and Tracer rounds as special ammo types.)

<span class=""bb-b"">Custom “Scythe” CQC Tool (Made by Virathus himself)</span>
     - Transforming CQC power weapon with Dagger, Sword, and Spear forms.
     - Blade is energized by a plasma projection field that covers the blade, giving it a strong shell to make powerful and precise attacks.


<span class=""bb-b"">Standard Reaper Armaments:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Reaper Class Special Operations Armor</span>
     - Powered full body armor existing of nanite weave and Firadium plates (An alloy with properties similar to graphene.) with an energy dispersion field for electrical and dispersion based weapons.
     - Full heads-up display with INTCOM integrated communications systems.
A system of plasma jets on the armor allow for rapid bursts of speed allowing wearers of the armor to “dash.” (Jets are not designed for prolonged flight, but can be used for “power jumps” and “Gliding”)
     - Tactical meshes along the armor allow for the ability to carry a collection of Reaper Class gadgets and tools
     - Integrated WRAITHE Class Cloaking Field. Field protects from ocular, thermal, and Psionic levels of vision. (Psionics can still detect presences if they are mentally searching for another life form, just can’t see them.)

<span class=""bb-b"">WITNESS Class Tracer Packs</span>
     - Each Tracer Pack contains five Tracer Rounds that can be fired from your standard OMEN Class Plasma Rifle

<span class=""bb-b"">BYPASS Wrist Infiltration Device</span>
     - Standard attachment to the Reaper Class Armor designed to have a collection of tools for various forms of infiltration and insertion.
     - Plasma welder tool that can be adjusted to welding or cutting.
     - Glue Cord Emitter for applying objects to otherwise non-sticky surfaces.
     - Connection cable for technological infiltration.

<span class=""bb-b"">STILETTO Class Plasma Dagger Grenades</span>
     - Handheld plasma based explosives with an attached power spike to attachment to targets, walls, or vehicles.

<span class=""bb-b"">KINDLE Class Applicable Burning Agent</span>
     - A container of applicable foam that can stick to surfaces with ease, when ignite with a plasma spark of some form (usually the BYPASS’ welding tool) it burns at a temperature of over 4,000 degrees Celsius making it an excellent tool for burning holes in doors, fences, thin walls, or floors

<span class=""bb-b"">SABRE Class Power Weapon</span>
     - Reaper standard is the SABRE Power Short Sword. About two and a half feet in length this powered weapon emits a plasma shell around the blade enhancing it in combat. The blade itself can deploy and return into the hilt for easier transport.

<span class=""bb-b"">PRISM Class Target Containment Unit</span>
     - The PRISM is a marvel of Litharian technology able to dissolve a target on an atom level and then absorb the free flowing matter into the 3 inch cube for safe and easy transport. Cube will only accept one individual or object at a time as the memory core can only remember how to reconstruct one unit at a time.

<span class=""bb-b"">OMEN Class Plasma Sniper Rifle</span>
     - Front barrel can be folded over turning the sniper into an assault rifle, reducing range, ballistic speed, plasma density, and some ammo types, but gains increased rate of fire. (Retains Incendiary, Electro-Dispersion, and Tracer rounds as special ammo types.)
     - Round firing chamber that can generate and fire Incendiary, Electro-Dispersion, and Explosive rounds. Tracer rounds can also be fired, but must be loaded in manually.
     - Scope with Thermal, Night, and Infrared Visions.

<span class=""bb-b"">MAGNUM Class Plasma Pistol</span>
     - Special Plasma pistol with an advanced firing chamber that can generate and fire Incendiary, Electro-Dispersion, and Explosive rounds.

Alignment: Wolkar Pack Collective  

Physiology: A more lithe build than most, using his heavy armor to counter for the natural bulk many of his peers may have. He trained hard with his armor, practically living in it and following his mentor’s words. “Your armor should be like a second skin, more comfortable than a warm bed.” The Wolkar took this to heart with his training, keeping it on nearly at all times save for the occasional formal event or when he bathed. This resulted in him being quite strong and retaining most of his mobility even with the heavy plated power armor. While those who are used to wearing light armor will still be able to outmaneuver him, he can keep up with most and take a good deal of punishment while doling out just as much.  

Psychology: A strong willed adult, his moods shift from cocky and friendly to calm and deathly serious. He knows when to relax and poke fun and when he needs to be focused. Even when he takes a fight lightly he is actually plotting everything out in his head, strategizing and forming plans A, B, and even C all the while. Much like the rest of his kin, he is very open minded to other cultures and species, not above drinking with even the leaders of other factions so long as he knew he could trust them. He would often call a few of his closer friends a pack brother after they fought together in battle. To him, his friends are just as much family as his parents or siblings.  

Appearance: Dark blue fur where the head is exposed and tufted ears, fur color the same for the rest of his body. A tall and lanky build is hidden behind thick durasteel power armor at almost all times, a part of the Wolkar’s constantly ongoing training.   Status: Alpha of the Shadowclaw pack and representative to the Alpha Council.    

Equipment: Beskad plated power armor with wrist mounted weaponry. Upgraded with energy dampening technology to reduce the impact of exotic energy types like psionic or anti-proton attacks. 
Has upgraded the strength assist unit inside his suit for increased yield. 
Energy dampening shield to further increase defense against energy based attacks. 
Jetpack with one anti-vehicle missile when deemed needed for a mission. 
On board medical probes and AED 
Visored helm with full heads up display and connected to the Collective’s military database and the Mercenary Guild’s bounty boards. Must be in the same orbit of a Wolkar ship to establish connection. 
Multiple gas cylinders to modify his equipment on the fly 
Combustible cylinder- causes laser based weapons to burn more easily, good for those with no or light armoring though ineffective against heavy armor. 
Ionic Cylinder - Magnetizes weaponry and armor, causing some electrical current to run through the weaponry as well as partially magnetize his armor. Magnetizing armor partially makes it dissipate more harm from metallic and energy weapons though his own weaponry also loses some of it’s lethal potential in favor of defense. 
Armor Piercing Cylinder- Allows blasters and weaponry greater penetration power at the cost of drastically reducing firing speed. Only advisable for large scale fortifications and slow moving armored enemies 
Combat Support Cell- redirects part of the suit’s offensive energy to the medical probes and equipment, making them function more efficiently and overcharge healing rays. Can even repurpose blasters to fire cauterizing bolts to seal bleeding wounds though they will not replace emergency medical treatment.  

Weapons 
Blaster pistols for mid to close range combat 
Single anti-vehicle missile on his jetpack 
Gauntlet mounted weapons 
Rail Laser- Fires a single high impact blast meant to do damage to armor. Takes a second to charge 
Flamethrower 
Dart launcher 
neural jolt- distraction
Toxic dart- Only good for sneak attacks on unarmored foes 
Tranq dart- See above 
Explosive dart- 3 second delay. Can attach magnetically to armor or with strong adhesive at the tip of the dart 
Electro dart- 8 second long range tazer. Will also affect armored targets unless their armor is insulated from shock. 
Wrist Mounted Rockets 
Grapple Line- Mainly used to tangle and capture enemies but can also be used to reach high locations should jetpack be damaged. 
Immobilizing Foam Spray- Sprays a rapidly solidifying foam which coats the target, becoming hard as concrete in seconds and becomes as hard as standard steel after a few minutes of setting. Since the foam is porous it can even be applied over the face while not endangering the target’s life and allowing easy air flow. only good for securing subdued and defeated enemies alive. Cannot be used properly otherwise. Mainly used by bounty hunters for live bounties.  
Retractable Gauntlet blades- Collapsible 3 foot blades Nanite reinforced 
Sniper rifle for long range Only VERY occasionally used, preferring to fight up close  

Rennac’s FERAL: Vanguard  A moderately heavy armored two leg model FERAL which carries one of the few Assault armor units as well as sporting a moderately sized hanger unit in the legs. Heavily modified to suit his quick and deadly combat style. Though it is heavier, Rennac has overhauled the booster units to compensate. 
Right arm: Gattling energy rifle Large energy bolts fired at a high rate to pepper more lightly armored vehicles 
Left arm: Moonlight energy blade Deadly close range weapon. Can cause severe damage to even strongly reinforced defenses 
Left back: High action missiles Moderate yield missiles designed for dogfighting. Advanced lock technology and maneuverability fins make it difficult to refocus them on an alternate target 
Right back: Rail cannon Long range death dealer. Strong against even the toughest of armor. However, it requires the FERAL to be completely still and braced to use with any precision over long range. Can be used while moving though accuracy is reduced.</div>"

Of course, his recommendation was one that was more commonly found and was more easily modifiable, having toyed with one in his youth. He did opt to spend the remainder of his stay at a regular hotel as opposed to the palace, deciding he would prefer to have his gear close by rather than be unarmed and constantly in the vicinity of one who would have killed him without hesitation. Mostly he did diagnostics and maintanence but spent one night at a local bar, having his usual gear on and enjoying himself (after ensuring that the weapon controls were in fact inactive before he began to drink). 

He had just ordered his first ale as he sat down, swishing it in his mug as he slowly enjoyed the cold drink.</div>"

Virathus was having a pretty good morning all things considered. The beautiful blue sun of Havatk was coming up over the horizon and he had a splendid view from his house up on the Northern Mountain city of Thurus.

Toast in hand he took a few steps out onto the balcony to breathe in the crisp air. Just about to enjoy another peaceful morning when his INTCOM began to ring, curious he went back inside taking another bite while answering the COM-call. A few moments in and his content smile vanished.

Once the call was ended he finished his piece of toast in two bites and jogged upstairs to his room, getting decent and grabbing with jacket, SCYTHE, and OMEN. IT was time to go to work.

Litharian Galactic Date 5371-223, Planet Havatk, Capitol City Shalruk, Reaper Caste Barracks.

Virathus was just walking out of the briefing, not entirely sure what to make of it. A mission is a mission but this one was supposed to be accompanied by an ambassador of another space faring race, not exactly your average operation. Your assignment is your assignment though, best not question, complain, or debate it.

He threw his pack and armaments on a bunk that he claimed prior to the briefing. It was a few days till the ship would be ready and it's not everyday you get to come to the capitol, mind as well make the most out of it. Taking SCYTHE and his civilian jacket we made his way out of the barracks and to the streets. No real direction, just a curiousity to find something to keep him busy.</div>"

He can faintly make out some of the words.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paVVJctjVmM

""Tis half past three and the chill is gone, 
it's the longest binge I've ever been on.
I've so many pints my mind's stupefied, 
but through all the haze I still hear them cry.""

Suddenly a boisterous chorus could be heard coming from every one of the bar patrons.

""DRINK MOTHERFUCKER, DRINK MOTHERFUCKER DRINK!""

If the Litharian ventured to open the door he would see an armored Wolkar leading the song, ale in hand and laughing all the while. More notably this was THE Wolkar that Virathus was supposed to be going on the mission with. While the Reaper could see he was certainly armed  for the job, it was a sight so out of place that most of the patrons were a bit hesitant the first night to join him. Apparently, he was quite the friendly sort to get the drunks here so into the song and even were continuing now.</div>"
21224,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 21:34:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus may have heard the music if he didn't have his own playing through his headphones connected to his wrist computer. What did catch his attention was how lit up the bar was. He couldn't help but peek in to see what all the commotion was about. He took off his headphones and peered inside seeing his would-be charge apparently leading this raunchous, drunken song.

Unable to keep in his shock he muttered the words, ""Hunter's Mercy."" Under his breath.

For a few moments he stood by the door watching this Wolkar man make an ass of himself. Though the folks around him didn't seem to mind and the bartender was making a killing, so he allowed it to continue unabated.</div>"
21225,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 21:50:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac paid little mind to Viranthus as he joined the crowd watching the spectacle unfold, continuing unabated till the loud end as even several of the sober members of the crowd joined in the big  finale. As the last verse finished the Wolkar downed his mug  with a smooth and apparently practiced motion, cheering with the rest of the crowd. Regardless of how rocky things began thanks to Karasis in the meetings, he could certainly say he had the public support in favor of more interaction with the Wolkar. Well, at least those who enjoyed the bar. There was probably going to be one or two noise complaints but overall it did wonders for the Wolkar's public standing and reputation as an approachable fellow and good friend. He soon spoke to a few of the other patrons, laughing and joking with them and overall just being what all Wolkar are at heart: kinnd-hearted mutts who value friends and comraderie. He could even swear he saw a Karadon or two join in at one point. Soon he spotted Virathus again, his cheeks a bit flush from the booze. Smiling all the while he clasped his hand on the Litharian's shoulder, not aggressively or in any threatening way but one would to a friend when having fun. ""Ah! It's a beautiful thing isn't it? Seeing so many people together, enjoying themselves, TRULY living in the moment. No worries, no cares, simply the joy of being with their fellow man. Then again, suppose it's something my people particularly enjoy being pack oriented."" He then took a second look at Virathus and raised an eyebrow. ""Ah, a new face! Happy to meet new friends.  Name's Rennac Shadowclaw, Alpha of the shadowclaw clan, head of the Mercenary guild, and haver of a jolly good time! Last one is not so official, but still just as fitting I like to think.""</div>"
21226,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 22:19:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">This was one of those rare times that Virathus was truly lost for words. This... drunkard, was to be his charge. He was hardly able to stand and while armed has no discipline.

When Rennac put his hand on Virathus' shoulder he glanced at it, keeping his straight face and silent eyes. Letting him finish, the smell of booze was strong on his breath and almost made him gag. Once he was done talking he calmly removed Rennac's hand from his shoulder.

Thankfully the Council of Masters kept his identity a secret, not revealing his true name or face, so with any luck this character would but far too smashed to remember him and this whole event could be removed from his memory.

""Well met then, Rennac Shadowclaw. Since you seem able to throw a good time let me buy us a round."" He then began moving towards the bar signaling the tender to ready a pair.

Taking a seat he cleared a second for Rennac.</div>"
21227,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 22:29:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Though he had plenty to drink, the Wolkar was not as drunk as Viranthus thought. He was a bit tipsy, sure, though most of his swaggering was to help put others at ease around the Wolkar. Soon, Rennac was worried this show was having the opposite effect on his latest acquaintance, smiling as he spoke up and offered the wolf a free round. 

""Thanks, I'll have to return the favor one of these days.""

He grabbed the beer after the bartender set them down, taking a calming sip of the amber liquid and sighed. ""I must say, this beer is excellent. As much as I do enjoy the brews of my home world, these are most enjoyable. How have you been enjoying the night Mr..?"" He left the question open ended, not openly asking the name and giving his compatriot the opportunity to decline. As drunk as he was he never let it get in the way of his manners.</div>"
21228,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 22:43:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus studied Rennac, something changed about him from when he was singing. He was... something, just not like he was before.

""It hasn't been wrong to me yet. What was that song? I haven't heard it on Havatk before. Is it from your world?"" He said trying to change the topic from his name.

This man was a strange one to be sure. Clearly not a native and not just because of the fur. His mannerisms were all wrong, he carried himself wrong, he was just... wrong. Not that it was a bad thing, he just stands out like a sore off-worlder.</div>"
21229,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 22:56:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac smirked and nodded, understanding his drinking buddy's hesitance to reveal his name. Of course when he was singing he was throwing himself into the moment, trying to rile up the crowd and help them have fun. He was usually quite collected and thoughtful when it was more one on one.

""Ah, right. It's an old folk song from my homeworld. It's actually a funny story about a group of Alphas who challenged the Sirius not by combat, but by a drinking contest. By the end, no one was sober enough to know who had actually won the title. They decided that they would meet again in one year and try again. Ever since then there is an annual event held  to the public where the Alphas see who can drink the others under the table. Everyone gets into it. Even the Council members put their titles aside for the night and just drink with the people they serve. It's become one of our most celebrated and well known holidays. The runner up is the morning of sorrow where everyone wakes up with a hangover and tries to recover!""

A content chuckle escaped Rennac's lips as he recalled the history behind the song, giving his aquaintance a bit of insight into his own culture.</div>"
21230,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 23:08:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When Rennac finished his story Virathus actually smiled for the first time since he saw the Wolkar. It's always interesting to see how other races celebrate, even if he would never partake in something so strange.

Virathus still had many issues with this man, but he didn't seem like such a bad person.

""Strange tradition. The Council of Masters would never partake in something so, debaucherous. Far too stuck up with all that power,"" He said, giving a light chuckle at his own observation.</div>"
21231,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 23:20:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac smiled and nodded. 

""True I suppose. If anyone were to partake though I would say it would be the Master Hitharis. He always struck me as a more down to earth kind of person. Then again your government structure is  different from Ferran. Where I live anyone willing to can become an Alpha given they can prove themselves. We don't really have nobles or castes, just people all working together for the good of the whole. Each Alpha has their own reasons for wanting to lead, whether  it is to protect something they cherish or to right a wrong that they see in the laws or actions of their leaders. For us, we're all brothers and sisters, with the Alpha acting as a sort of father.""

He hoped his explanation would give the Litharian a better idea of his culture, considering how close each member of their species were to one another.</div>"
21232,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-08 23:59:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus nodded his head, strange how similar and yet different races could be. It was sure a topic to ponder when he had more time. Unfortunately it was his time to retire, there were still more places he wanted to visit and he had to be ready for when teh COuncil of Masters called him to action.

""I'd hate to leave you in the cold, but I must be off."" Virathus said, moving his untouched beer over to Rennac. With that he took his abrupt leave of the bar. If the Wolkar was offended he was sure their mission would give him a chance to vent.</div>"
21233,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 00:07:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac smiled and raised the mug, nodding to the Litharian. 

""No worries mate, we all have our lives to live. Just take care of yourself. Next time we'll have to properly drink!""

He took a chug  of his beer and waved the man off, eyeing the drink with a smirk. ""Huh, guess he's expecting to be at work soon or cant afford to be hungover."" For just being an empty mug it spoke volumes to the Wolkar, telling him quite a bit about the man. Soon enough he was back in the thick of it, drinking and singing till it grew late and he had to retire. Only stumbling a bit he returned to the hotel and got comfortable on the bed, just deactivating his armor's weaponry and sleeping off his drinks. The ship would be ready soon and he would want to get there early to check over the modifications made to it and add his own to fine tune the ship. If there was one thing the Wolkar never did, was pilot in a ship they had not personally performed maintenance on.</div>"
21234,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 00:37:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus continued down the city's streets for a few more hours before returning to his bunk with a few items in hand. Nothing special, snacks mostly, but he did get a little trinket. A necklace with the Symbol of Hunters. It's a novelty item, but one from the capitol, so he'd most likely hang it up when he got home.

At his bunk he stored his supplies and cozied in for a nap.

<span class=""bb-b"">Litharian Galactic Date 5371-226, Planet Havatk, Arkthurias Memorial Space Port.</span>

Preparations for the ship had finished and Virathus received a message summoning him to the Arkthurias Space Port and damned if he was going to be late. Collecting his weapons and armor, Virathus suited up and and caught a ride aboard a military transport ship to reach the space port without delay.

As for the ship, Rennac's request was taken to heart and the Master of Struture made it her duty to requisition a FXS Light Freighter. Having it modified and outfitted with Litharian INTCOM systems as well as racks for their weapons and gadgets in the ship's bunk bay. All packed into an inconspicuous shell.</div>"
21235,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 01:04:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac had received the call as well and was off like a shot, the thankful habit of being dressed in his armor 24/7 serving to expedite his departure. Right after paying for the room he used his jetpack to fly to the spaceport, arriving after a short flight and waiting at the hanger door for the representative to arrive. Thankfully, keeping the access codes from him was one trick Karasis wasn't able to do, having been given to him by an attendant. Smiling at his imagined victory over one he considered to be the most insufferable beings in the galaxy, he punched in the code and was happy to find the requested ship made ready. He took  a quick look around to notice it was mostly stock save the promised communication system that was installed courtesy  of the the Master of Structure.  He made sure the engine wasn't rigged to blow when he started the ship, something he was grateful he wouldn't need to deal with once he made sure the engine was in acceptable condition. With all the physical threats dealt with he went to the computer and plugged an external datapad into the socket, doing a quick scan of the system for any malicious code or viruses as well as signs of tampering.</div>"
21236,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 01:47:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The computer wasn't a hard bit to scan or crack, it wasn't designed to resist on site intrusions. Among the files were several tracking worms, nothing malicious. They seemed to be standard practice for tracking the usage of governmental property, like automated log keepers. One piece however was out of place, a special splice was put into place that bypassed all the usual channels. Wherever to lead to it wouldn't be logged or tracked by the automated log keepers.

Virathus was on his way up to the landing pad, carrying a pair of heavy bags loaded with his equipment and the equipment granted to him for use in this operation. In full armor he passed by the attendant who helped him use the codes on the ship. Stepping inside and heading the opposite way Rennac was to unload all the gear into the shelves and containers by the bunks.</div>"
21237,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 02:04:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The special splice threw the Wolkar off and made him feel uneasy, the oddity that this dataspike was making him nervous. First copied the spike carefully to a sealed partition on his datapad and hooked it to the holo communicator, contacting the Wolkar Information Service. ""Alpha Rennac Shadowclaw, authorization code Alpha-charlie-Niner-eight."" After a brief moment, the WIS insignia faded and was replaced with the image of an alien reclining in a chair. Oddly enough it seemed to be a bipedal reptile, one of the many who had come to Ferran and joined the Wolkar to get a new start and a new home. ""Watcher 8, analyse this data spike and try to trace back it's origin. I need to know if this is specific to the Litharian government as well as whether it's data structure is outdated or not. If it is Litharian, it could potentially could have been planted by those who are assisting my target."" Once he had sent a copy of the dataspike to the analyst he then rung for the Master of Structure and the Master of Eyes, waiting on a response. While this could possibly be just something  to keep the ship's records clean, he would prefer to check and verify before altering or removing it now.</div>"
21238,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 02:55:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Scanning the hole in the ships protocal wouldn't yield much, it led to a void and connected with nothing. It was of Litharian design, but that was about all that could be discovered. It's code age was identical to the rest of the programs, so whatever it was it wasn't an old hole that was just missed when cleaning up the ship. It was there for a reason.

Rennac's attempts to call the Master of Eyes would be met with a generic line of, ""The frequency you are trying to reach doesn't exist.""

But the Master of Structure would answer, ""Yes Rennac Shadowclaw of Clan Shadowclaw. It something amiss?""</div>"
21239,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 03:01:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac rolled his eyes at the generic could not be reached line contacting the Master of Eyes yielded, happy he could get through to the Master of Structure.

""Just a second. Securing my end of the transmission. And... there. We should be safe to speak. During my examination of the ship I discovered this data spike within the ship's computer banks. Though it is possible this is your way of keeping the travels of this vessel secret, I thought it prudent to verify. For all we know this spike was planted by one of Klith's allies. Sending the spike to you now.""

The Wolkar transmitted the data packet to the Litharian on the other end of the connection, hoping she would have some answers.</div>"
21240,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 03:23:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">There was a pause as the Master of Structure received and looked over the data, but after a few moments she had her answer, ""This is clear Litharian design, but I never ordered anyone to put something like this in place. Where did you say you found this again?""</div>"
21241,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 03:32:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's brow furrowed at this knowledge, figuring it was likely a sabatuer.

""I found it scanning through the ship's communications array during my general sweep of the ship's systems. I would suggest you compile a list of all those who had access to the ship and run a through background check on them. This is most likely the work of Klith's accomplice. Capture him alive if possible. We may be able to interrogate him for the target's whereabouts. For the time being I'll perform a more thorough examination of the ship should they have left more surprises  for us. Rennac out."" 

He closed the channel and hooked the datapad back into the system, programming it to do  a even more thorough sweep and moving up to check the engines, spotting the Litharian from the other day in the bunks area. 

""You're the representative from the Council I take it? Sadly not a lot of time for introductions. We need to perform a full sweep of the ship. I discovered a data slice in the ship's comm systems and sent the data to the master of Structure. Hopefully he can round up those who worked on the ship for questioning. How much you know about ship engineering and maintenance?""</div>"
21242,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 04:00:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Master of Structure found it odd and once off the call she began searching the names of those who had worked on it.

Virathus looked up to see a rather upset Rennac, after hearing him he realized why. Good news, he had just finished putting everything away so he was free to act. But something Rennac had said rang in his mind, why the com systems? And why a splice that was separate from the calls, it wouldn't send out any calls they made. It was a hole for untraceable calls.

""I don't know much, I never cared to leave how all the systems worked."" Virathus confessed.</div>"
21243,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 04:09:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and shook his head, muttering to himself.

""Dii rax wah ok ruus! Crap, best option is for you to go over the armor plating. Typically if someone sabotaged that it would be easier to find. I'll start by doing a check on the engine's cooling systems and work my way to the laser defense grid. Hopefully that data spike is all we will find. Just remember: If they could affect one system, they could affect any system. Keep your eyes peeled."" 

He quickly walked towards the engines, muttering how someone could have already compromised their security. He was unsure whether the Litharian would know the meaning of his cursing but knew there would be time to explain later. Right now, he had to make sure no other surprises waited for them on the ship.</div>"
21244,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 04:39:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus nodded and jogged off to inspect the ship's hull. He did some what lie to Rennac. He did know a good deal about ships since he had a little pet project of building his own back home. Nothing real complex about the interworking systems, but he knew his hull pressures and engine set-ups. It didn't take long to realize that the ship was in perfect condition from the outside.

As for Rennac's searching the engines systems and teh defense systems were in perfect working order, no signs of sabotage or tampering.

Virathus started to head back into the ship to check the com systems for himself and the datapad Rennac had plugged in had been turned off. He didn't think anything of it and instead decided he'd return to the bunks. After all the ship seemed perfectly fine.</div>"
21245,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 04:46:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac found nothing that would have been considered as tampering. At most a loose gasket and a slightly off coolant level. This was infuriating. There was proof that their ship had been tampered but there was nothing notable besides the data slice. He looked to his datapad curiously, finding it odd that it had turned off. He pressed the power button on the side, aiming to take it out of what he assumed was the pad's hybernation mode.</div>"
21246,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 05:06:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When Rennac pressed the power button, instead of leaving sleep mode, it began it's initial power up cycle. Booting up from a cold stop.

Virathus elected that it be best if he checked their gear, it couldn't hurt to be thorough and he found it calming. Checking plasma charge cells, making sure the barrel was free of debris, checking each slide for that satisfying, smooth action.</div>"
21247,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 12:51:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's brow furrowed seeing the cold boot sequence, knowing that nothing in his datapad would have made itself automatically shut off. He then performed a diagnostic on the device, examining it on the code level to check if any of the registry entries or code had been tampered  with.</div>"
21248,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 19:03:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">When Rennac checked the Datapad there was no tampering to be found and the registry only said that the device was told to shut down about three minutes into the deep scan. There were no new viruses, worms, or aggressive programs. It was simply told to shut down.

Virathus' wrist computer lit up with a message, upon checking it he realized that all the clearance codes and flight paths were set for take-off. They were green lit on the operation. Similarly he recieved a message from an unknown contact. It was short and curt, ""Stop Rennac.""

Virathus left the bunks to find Rennac, seeing him fiddling with a datapad he made it known, ""We have a green light on the operation we need to get started. The ship doesn't seem to be in danger and we are on a strict timetable. If you don't mind, could you get us in space while I finish securing the gear?""</div>"
21249,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 19:11:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's mind was curious about what could have caused the deep scan to result in a shutdown, about to re-attempt it when the Litharian representative came back in. 

""Very well. Datapad shut off mid scan, piece of junk, so we'll re-attempt it once we're the black. For now just.. avoid plugging anything into a computer port.""

He got into the pilot's seat, uneasily gripping the physical controls. 

""Definitely like the direct control better..""

He muttered under his breath, firing up the engines and prepping for launch along the vectors supplied by Litharian air control. Soon they were launching to break the atmosphere, the Wolkar donning his helmet and pressurizing as a precaution should his partner have missed something. All the while he had the datapad linked back in to the side, running the scan again as he took off. Should it turn off agaon in it's own he can at least now tell around when it would have happened.</div>"
21250,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 19:35:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As Rennac attempted to scan again it continued until about three minutes in where the datapad's scan reached out into the hole in the tracking programs where something on the other end reached back out and told teh datapad to shutdown again.

Virathus was in the other room, not doing anything as all of the gear had already been secured when his wrist computer lit up again, the same unknown contact with the same message, ""Stop Rennac.""

He stood up and walked towards the cockpit, this time grabbing SCYTHE on the way and putting it in it's respective holster on his armor. ""Are we on course? No issues so far?"" He asked once inside the cockpit.</div>"
21251,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 19:42:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">By the time the scan was cut out again they were already out of the atmosphere and could do a subspace jump. It would take a day or two even then to reach Shad-noir and he would have plenty of time to check the systems more thoroughly and get to know his temporary partner. 

He was reaching to the datapad with a smirk, getting a bit more information of what was causing the trouble when THe Litharian came back in.

""Ah! We're on course and ready to make the jump to subspace when you're ready. Though I do believe I've gotten a better of idea what the data spike is doing. Apparently it's been able to shut off my datapad when I attempt to scan it. From what I can tell, it could take over some control of the ships functions, namely our communications array. Since the Master of Structure assures me none of his engineers planted it, I'd rather not risk letting Klith possibly get the jump on us and know how we're coming or even have him try to misdirect us posing as the current Master of Eyes. I'll patch it up in a jiffy and we can be on our way.""</div>"
21252,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:02:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus nodded taking a seat in the copilot's chair, switching on the terminal to get read-outs from the ship's systems. Rennac was right, nothing wrong and they were right on course. he flicked through a few screens and charted a warp space path to their destination and strapped in. Once they were in warp space he wouldn't need to care, but the jump into it has been known to jolt smaller craft.

""I don't know I think you should leave it. It isn't connected to any of our vital systems and if Klith did put in it place then we might be able to use it against him now that we know it's there."" Virathus said to Rennac without taking his attention from his read-outs.</div>"
21253,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:06:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac watched and let the Litharian punch in the warp route before making the jump, watching the telltale flash of stars passing them by as their ship sped through the inky blackness of space. 

""Perhaps. However I haven't had much luck trying to trace back the signal. For now we should put a firewall in place to isolate it till we can find a way to get a trace through. That way we wont have burned that bridge and we can at least keep Klith or whoever planted it from knowing where we are. Shouldn't take long to reconfigure the system to bypass the spike and keep it isolated.""</div>"
21254,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:34:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus nodded again, ""Sounds like a good idea.""

He flicked a few more screens on the terminal before setting it to sleep and unstrapping himself from the chair. Instead of getting up he simply closed his eyes and tilted his head back. Mind as well relax while he still could. Danger was a the horizon so quiet became a pleasure.

What about this Rennac character though. A strange bird to be honest, but he seemed to know a deal about systems, when he wasn't blackout drunk and making a scene.</div>"
21255,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:41:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and pulled the datapad to his seat in the cockpit, starting to type out the commands for the improvised  workaround. Once he had set up the comm array to bypass the dataspike he began to try and send trace packets into the spike, hoping for them to return with the full route that the data was coming from. At the very least, it would tell him where the tracing attempts were being cut off.</div>"
21256,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 20:48:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus decided that if he was going to deal with this Wolkar it would be best to not be a total stranger. ""So, Rennac Shadow of Clan Shadowclaw. Why come to help us with this mission? Your race owes us nothing and we owe you nothing.""

When Rennac attempted to trace the hole it was almost instantly shut out. It didn't go to anywhere other that the ship's internal systems. Whatever was working through this hole had this breach build like a fortress. As for the firewall attempt the wall was placed around it and seemed to be holding.</div>"
21257,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 21:10:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac scowled at the screen seeing the trace packets were shut down as soon as they reached the internal systems, part of him worried that this spike could intercept their transmissions if they had not dealt with it. It was then that he thought on his response to the Litharian's question.

""The Wolkar have a... philosophy when it comes to meeting other people. Despite whatever we may look like on the outside or how we grew up, we are all people, striving to lead a happy life. Working alone towards this is lonely, and grows tiresome with age. It is when we work with others to truly live rather than just survive day after day that one sees the beauty of life. Truth be told, most Wolkar are still holding out for a great union of the galactic factions, having all of the different races and cultures melding together, seeing past their differences. No Wolkar, no Litharians, just simply people of different sizes and creeds. Not divided, but as one. I know I will likely never see it in my lifetime, nor will my children see it in theirs, nor even my grandchildren. All I can do is try and get us just that little bit closer and I can be happy knowing I did what I could to make it happen. As for why I do that as a Hunter, it is... a more personal tale..""

The eyes previously full of wonder and pride turned to a mixture of solemn remembrance and withheld anger. ""A member of my family was... unjustly killed. Some thug who wanted a device my father had been designing to sell. My father took pity on the man, knowing he could always build another even as this thug would sell off the original for a mere handful of slivers that might be used to feed himself or his family. Even after my father gave him what he wanted, he murdered my father in cold blood right in front of me. I was not much older than a pup, just finding my place in the world. Before the authorities could capture him he fled off planet, going out of their reach. I was...  furious to say the least. All I had been taught about how we should  not be afraid to help others who are in need, and some honorless nikriin kills someone I cared for for little more than his own amusement. I spent the month after using my knowledge of engineering building a hidden dart launcher to use on the coward once I found him. Once I had all I needed, I traveled the stars and hunted him down. Six months later, a pup with no real training or tools besides his hands, a thrown together hidden weapon, and his instincts tracked the man down to some smuggler's moon. I didn't just end it quickly. I slashed and battered him till he was begging for mercy. My response. 'Did you show any mercy to my father?' In that instant, he knew why I was there, what he had done to earn my ire. He died with that same expression, the same one he carried when I severed his head and brought it back to Ferran. The guild recognized my natural talent and recruited me, equipped me, gave me a ship, and most importantly taught me all I needed to track down the true threats.""</div>"
21258,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 22:25:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus listened passively to Rennac's story. It wasn't something he experiance or could truely relate to, but it was something he could understand. When his parents were killed eh wanted to avenge them, but who would he go after? Who would he kill? They died heroes of war not victims of a drive-by.

""I'm glad you found closure. I know what it feels like to want a satisfying conclusion. Even if it isn't the ideal."" He said, still not turning his head or opening his eyes.

""As for a joined galaxy, who knows maybe we wont' see it, but I know it can happen. The Karadons and Litharians have been living, building, and working together for centuries. Now? Now we are family, race and planet of origin mean nothing to us anymore. But not all races are like the Karadons and it isn't as easy to accept and integrate them."" He finished reaching up with his arms to fold them behind him head.</div>"
21259,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 22:28:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac nodded solemnly, a brief smile coming across his face as he found the Litharian shared the same ideals for unity. He gave a quick nod and was about to respond before subsequently facepalming. ""Oh, right. Never got your name. Too much with the data spike issue and potential sabotage. You know my name, but I never got yours. Can't exactly should 'Look out Litharian' now can I?""</div>"
21260,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 23:05:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Finally this was enough to get Virathus to open his eyes and turn his head, ""You can call me Reaper.""

In that moment he stood up and began to walk off towards the bunks. The ship could basically fly itself to their destination and he hasn't had lunch yet. Once at the bunks he pressed a button on the wall and it folded down to make a small table with a sink and heat-chamber built in. Then he started to prepare some Yithru, a traditional Litharian dish comprised of mostly Litharian fruits but also some grains.</div>"
21261,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 23:14:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac was about to extend a hand to shake but soon found Reaper get up and walk away. ""... pleasure to meet you too.""

Suddenly, the Litharian's previous words about seeing a united galaxy seemed more hollow and like idle banter. Of course, he was probably still trying to pass off as someone other than the man he had met the other night. Time to burst that little bubble. He got up and left the ship on autopilot till they arrived, moving to the preserver and grabbed two beers he had been saving for a job well done. Afterall, was a tradition after a successful battle to indulge and celebrate a bit. Wouldn't be the usual end of the hunt feast since he figured his partner would be more mild mannered. Rather not cause any severe culture shock. With a sly grin he looked over to Reaper. 

""Now, about that beer I owe you. Want it now or at the bar once we bag and tag Klith?"" He said it with every bit of casual flair he could while also aiming for shock value, wondering how well composed Reaper would be.</div>"
21262,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-09 23:35:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus was dicing up a selection of fruit when Rennac made his little remark. And when he mentioned that moment his muscles tensed and the knife dug into the cutting board, sinking in deep. He then turned abruptly towards Rennac attempting to point the knife at him, but the knife stayed behind in the board. Almost causing him to double take, but in an attempt to recover he just pointed at the Wolkar instead. ""We will never talk about that day again.""

He then looked down at the beverage in his hands, attempting to take it one in a single falling action. ""I won't be associated with a raunchous drunkard. We never will go back to that bar, and you will never sing that song again for as long as I live."" His words while mean didn't really advocate malicious intent. He meant them, but he was starting to like the Wolkar.</div>"
21263,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 00:22:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac laughed seeing the near double take thanks to the knife embedded in the cutting board and gave Reaper a shit eating grin, enjoying how embarrassed the Litharian was quickly becoming. 

""Well, that shouldn't be a problem. There are plenty of bars in the universe and plentiful songs to sing. Most are FAR worse than the one I sang at the bar of course. How did that verse go? Oh yes!

'Ol' Rover was 80 though his wife was just a pup,
he died upon the honeymoon when she got his hackles up!'""

The Wolkar was laughing merrily at the even more raunchy verse, wiping a tear from his eye.

""The Wolkar enjoy what little time we have among the living. A moment wasted in sorrow is something we know only leads to a more depressing life. Live life as if there is no tomorrow, and you will never regret a day in your life.""

(The verse is modified from this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vz9nHvmdAb4 )</div>"
21264,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 00:37:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus had to physically hold back the urge to hit Rennac. Teh further he went with his song the urge grew. And while he had a point with teh quote after the urge continued to grow and resisting it was... ah fuck it.

Virathus wound back and socked the Wolkar right in the shoulder, making sure to pack some heat behind it.

""I'm done talking to you until we get to Shad-noir."" And with that Virathus turned back to unwedge the knife from teh cutting board so he could finish lunch.</div>"
21265,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 00:44:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's look was impassive as he felt the punch and rolled his body with it, having to shift one of his feet back to absorb the impact. Regardless, he was hardly hurt from the punch. Honestly, he was almost more worried about Reaper's fist considering the Wolkar literally wore his beskad plated armor EVERYWHERE.

""Heheh, fair enough. Just grunt in pain when you want a cold pack for the hand.""

Respecting Reaper's wishes he stayed silent for the rest of the trip short of humming or whistling a tune as he managed his gear  or did some of his limited training on the ship. Soon enough they would arrive and he could consider the speaking ban over.</div>"
21266,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 00:55:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus' hand was fine, though he did stretch the fingers and heard a few cracks, nothing serious. Knife back in hand he finished his lunch and ate it on his bed in silence.

Shockingly the Wolkar respected his demands and their verbal exchanges remained low. Before long the two days in space seemed like nothing and Shad-noir was in sight.

Suiting up in his full REAPER armor he went to the pilot's chair and booted up the terminal getting ready for their drop out of warp space and to resume manual control.

""Wolkar, get in here! We are about to arrive."" He shouted back into the hull of the ship.</div>"
21267,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 01:11:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Wolkar was quick to respond, arriving in the cockpit in short order and plugged himself into the system. He had done further improvements along their journey and was confident the system would not have any negative side effects when he links in directly. As he did the computer's speakers came to life.

""System link complete. Retrieving landing vectors from Shad-noir air control... Fuck it. Not gonna bribe those assholes. I'll find my own vector. Starting approach.""

They quickly turned and headed to a nearby landing zone, touching down shortly to have a few men coming out to meet them. More than likely concerning how they did not pay for the landing coordinates. Unhooking himself Rennac got up and donned his helm, heading down the gangway to see a fuming, though corrupt, looking traffic official come down with a few thugs. 

""Just WHAT do you think you're doing?!  You wanna land, you gotta pay like everyone else!""

The visor in Rennac's helmet lit up giving him an unseen grin, relaxing his posture. 

""Oh don't worry, I got that covered. Afterall, this planet is rife full of bounties to catch, including..""

The Wolkar brought his wrist up to the unsuspecting official, a cold sneer under his help.

""You.""

His Incapacitating foam quickly coated the man, solidifying in seconds while ensuring he still had oxygen. 

""Dino Ray, former triad smuggler. Wanted for seven counts of smuggling, two counts of murder, ten counts of grand theft auto, five counts of racketeering, and three overdue library books. Wanted Dead or Alive. Alive 1500 Cells. Dead 1000. You are hereby under arrest under the authority of the Mercenary and Bounty guilds and will be brought to the nearest office before you are sent to face justice on the worlds you have wronged. Any who interfere will be considered to be aiding and abetting and will be summarily given death marks and hunted.""

With Dino immobilized his guns were pointed at the two thugs, each only worth maybe a 100 cells each,  and was ready to blast them. Of course, there was a hidden method to the Wolkar's madness. Start tagging bounties, and it just looks like you're cleaning the trash out of Shad-noir. This alone will have already given the two a cover  story  as to why they are here.</div>"
21268,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 01:46:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus took note of Rennac's strange ways of navigating this planet. He'd never been here so it was rather odd to ignore flight control protocals.

When they got to the ground he saw the thugs coming up thanks to the ships sensors and got out of his seat to reach his gear from the bunks, slinging his OMEN over his shoulder, holstering his SCYTHE, and grabbing his twin MAGNUM pistols, slapping a BURST on one and holstering it. The other one he carried with it's BURST unit out the door just in time to see Rennac spray a sort of foam on one guy and threaten the other two.

""Well now that everyone knows we are here."" He said in a droning tone under his helmet.

He slapped the BURST Module onto his pistol and aimed it at one of the goons, pulling the mount's trigger and releasing a massive burst of dense plasma in a wide cone directing at his chest.

Following that he shouted, ""Get out of here!"" To anybody who would still be standing.</div>"
21269,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 01:59:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">If the two goons weren't thinking of soiling themselves at Rennac's proclamation, they certainly were when Reaper came out of the ship. The one that was shot writhed  on the ground for several long moments before finally dying. The other thug quickly turned and ran for his life, a chuckle coming from under the Wolkar's helm as he set about removing the head from the fried thug. 

""Bit of advice. If you're gonna be able to pass as a bounty hunter, learn to keep the face intact. Becomes a hassle to have the office identify the bounties if they are unrecognizable.""

Rennac's plan soon fell into place. His little display and the fact that Reaper was travelling with him painted him as a newbie hunter, taken to the cesspool to hunt lower ranked targets and get some first hand experience. It was more or less a basic and well known right of passage for the bounty hunters in the guild, something few people would question. Though it was probably not what Reaper had in mind, it more than did enough to keep their purpose here shrouded.

Soon enough the head was  removed on the thug and he hefted up the foam encased swindler over his shoulder. ""Ready to trade these in? Gonna need to get a spot in the redlight district. Right by all the known rats on the planet.""</div>"
21270,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 02:10:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus tilted his head in a curious fashion. This was the textbook definition of foreign to him and while all of these practices were apperantly normal he couldn't help his head from becoming crooked.

""What a strange place."" He muttered as though talking to Rennac.

""One moment."" He said and then went back into the ship, grabbing a pair of STILETTOs, a pair of WITNESS Packs, and a PRISM Unit.

Exiting the ship he made sure the door was properly secured and locked before walking towards Rennac, gesturing towards the exit ramp.</div>"
21271,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 02:30:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and resolved to explain the plan more thoroughly when they got a place. For now he would focus on getting their accomodations and doing the usual traditions to keep up appearances. Once Reaper came back with the gear he lead the way. 

""Basically, you're posing as a newly recruited bounty hunter. You've got experience in combat, but were discharged because you were a bit  overzealous, like with our crispy friend here. This way, fewer questions and we can head to the usual intel spots without it seeming too odd. It's just routine to them at this point. You don't really question why you eat breakfast in the morning, right?""

After a few minutes they arrived at the office, trading in the bounties before Rennac tossed a bag with the lower thug's reward. ""Congratulations, you just earned your first bounty."" 

Another short walk later and they arrived at their location, a run down looking motel in the red light district. As they entered a lizard looking woman who appeared to have some kind of addiction whistled  to him. ""Hello there handsome~ Decided to finally give up the hunting biz and run away with little old me?""

The Wolkar had to chuckle. ""Keep dreaming Ketra. Got a new recruit here for the initiation run. Usual deal."" He slipped a stack of money and a datapad with a list of names, going to their usual deal. ""Get good info on number 13, and I'll throw in a bonus to get you an extra fix."" This made the lizard woman beam happily and ran through the list on the datapad, nothing to her but a list of deadbeats for the hunters to round up.

""There's a lot of heat on number 5, but I'm sure I can beat the rush."" She handed them a room card and left, leaving them to get settled.

""She'll do some of the legwork for us. For now, lets get a secure connection to my people and see what they've got for us.""</div>"
21272,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 04:50:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus followed and listened to Rennac, catching the meager bag of money in one hand, looking it over. It was hardly anything, but maybe it would cover lunch tomorrow.

All the while as they were walking to the Red Light District he was looking around at the terrible conditions and questionable activities that were happening wide in the open. He may have been in culture shock as his mouth was open for more scenes than not. Back on Havatk everything was orderly and just, but he just watch somebody get murdered and nobody even gave a second glance.

When they got to their... home? He was even more shocked. Even the Green Barracks back in military training was this terrible, and they had to pay for it. He was debating whether or not to actually sleep in the alley, it was probably cleaner at any rate.

He looked to Rennac with an extremely hesitant look, though Rennac couldn't tell due to his helmet that he refused to take off lest he catch some sort of disease. ""Are we really going to stay here?""</div>"
21273,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 11:34:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac chuckled at the complaint, nodding. 

""Not a five star hotel, but it is the best spot to gather info. She may not look it, but that drug addicted lizard  knows how to find intel. Thats the main reason this is a typical hunter resting spot. And if she can find our man, she'll have earned what we  would pay at one of those stuffy high rate hotels easily. Also, the only major hotels here are attached to casinos. Those are filthy for a whole different reason.""

They soon got to their rooms and took a look inside. At the very least it seemed like there was an effort  to keep this one clean. Another chuckle came from under Rennac's helm. ""Heh, you're in luck though.  Seems Ketra is still trying to impress me enough to run away with her. Just in case though, better to sleep with your armor on.""</div>"
21274,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-10 18:32:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus continued to follow Rennac through the motions of this new world, still appalled by the sights and sounds. When they got to their... ""room"", he was disgusted. True, it looked better than the hallway leading to it, but this still looked to be a bigger mess than even the most rundown Litharian home.

""Don't worry, I hadn't planned on removing my armor."" He said unslinging his OMEN. Though as he was about to set it down, he desided to try and find a cleaner spot for his prized weapon. Then tried again, and again, and again, and again. This persisted for probably about  two minutes before, ""Hey hand me that foam thing of your's.""</div>"
21275,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 00:05:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac couldn't help but chuckle seeing the Litharian trying to find a clean spot for his weapon, shaking his head at the request. 

""My armor's gear only works when it's attached. Lets me clean them easily while keeping marks from trying to take pieces off and fire them at me. Just point to a spot you like and I'll cover the spot. Though I am surprised a bit of filth is enough to wig you out. True, don't exactly enjoy it myself, though it apparently doesn't annoy me as it does you.""</div>"
21276,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 00:21:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus shook his head at Rennac's words. It was true, normally dirt doesn't bother him, ""Dirt doesn't bother me, it's the dirt on this world. This entire place makes my scales crawl.""

With that he pointed to a far corner of their room, ""Make sure you get good coverage, I don't want that mold creeping in over the night.""</div>"
21277,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 01:02:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac removed his helmet and set it aside, moving a bit closer to the specific corner and giving it a liberal coating of the foam. True, Ketra won't be thrilled, but he could clean it up easily enough. ""Heh, what? You biased against the dirt here? WHat makes  it different from the filth on your world? What are ya, a filthist?"" The smirk on Rennac's face showed he was just teasing, passing time until they got their list of leads. Though it was mostly random bounties, a good number were likely contacts and arms dealers Klith would logically contact should he try to hire protection or try and get his own operation set up.</div>"
21278,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 01:13:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Hey call me what you will, but there is a difference between dirt and grime nature makes and dirt and grime people make. And these people seem to be quiet adept at making the worst kind of filth."" He said back, snapping somewhat.

When he saw the amount of foam Rennac sprayed into the corner he stopped the Wolkar by grabbing his arm, maybe a tad too forcefully. Shaking his head he attempted to aim the Wolkar's arm and spray more into the corner. To be fair, the original amount was probably more that what a normal person would have called necessary, but not Virathus. Overkill was the only way to survive this Hell hole.</div>"
21279,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 01:17:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's chuckling subsided as he felt Reaper hold his arm in place, clearly wanting him to keep spraying. He kept going for a time before turning to Reaper. At this point he was growing legitimately concerned that Reaper suffered from a form of OCD.

""You mind? I love overkill as much as the next hunter, but I'd like to still have some foam left for bringing Klith in.""</div>"
21280,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 01:34:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus stopped using the Wolkar as a sort of builder gun and returned the arm to it's owner. ""This place is going to kill me."" He muttered solemnly walking over to his new ""clean"" corner setting his gun and gear down, sitting down on the foam as well to avoid having some sort of fungus begin growing on his armor.</div>"
21281,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 01:50:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac chuckled and shook his head, finding some humor in the Litharian's woes. 

""Look at it this way. All the filth is actually improving your immune system so you will have less to worry about from filth from now on. People from this planet are infamous for having an iron clad constitution. Think some Wolkar scientists came here and found a vaccine for some esoteric disease by taking white blood cell samples from the populace. Yes, this place actually contributed to STOPPING disease, as hard to believe as that is.""

Speaking of, the datapad was slipped through the door and landed with a thump on the floor, Rennac smiling and picking it up. ""Good news, we got our info. Lets see what dear little Ketra managed to get from the triad and mafia's databases.""</div>"
21282,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 02:08:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus threw his hands up in the air, ""That's bullshit, you made that up. Nothing good can come from a shit hole like this and on that note, fuck this place, fuck this planet, and fuck you."" He said rather nonchalantly. Though he would never admit it, this place was kind of growing on him, and thankfully not in the physical sense. It's a rare place that you can just shoot an asshole and get paid for it.

When the datapad fell through he didn't move, letting the Wolkar work his contacts. ""Just tell me who I need to kill."" He finished with a sort of grim tone on his voice. All this grime, drugs, and thugs wasn't is style, but having a target's name and location was. It felt good to start getting back onto familiar ground.</div>"
21283,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 02:25:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's grimace was palpable, reading through the reports.

""Nothing directly to Klith, though you should read up on lucky number 7. Dromun-Keran: gun runner, wanted on several planets for arming rebel groups and even instigating a few wars himself. Got a hefty bounty on his head AND he seems to have lost a shipment of weapons though his bank account paints a very different picture. What say we go do a little 'shopping?'""

With that look on Rennac's face it was clear he had a plan, donning his helmet and getting ready to head out. Before he opened the door he looked back at Reaper. ""Though do tell me, do Litharians ever use the 'good cop, bad cop' routine for interrogation?""</div>"
21284,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 02:40:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus stood up slinging his gun back over his shoudler and walking towards the door. ""Of course we do, I'll be good cop."" He then unslung his MAGNUM pistol and checked the BURST Unit to see if it was hooked in properly, ""And my good friend here makes a damn fine bad cop.""

Together he followed Rennac out of the dwelling and let the Wolkar take over since he knew where this Dromun-Keran was positioned.</div>"
21285,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 03:08:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac smirked and nodded. ""Good enough, least you'll have enough of an idea to follow my lead.""

The Wolkar led Reaper to the docks, soon finding the crook in question. He raised a hand as he got  ready to bolt. 

""Take it easy, looking to get a nice upgrade for my blasters. I'm willing to pay top cred for the best.""

Placing the large bag of money in the window made the thug's eyes light up at the opportunity, smirking all the while. ""Oh yes, please, please come on in! I am sure I can find something you will like. What is the problem you have with your current set? I may be able to find some nice mods to give them what you need.""

Rennac smiled happily and nodded. ""How about like the blasters you were paid to 'lose' in your recent shipment. From the reports I get those were some VERy high quality weapons.""

The gun runner looked nervously and shook his head. ""Oh come on now, like I could possibly get profit from dump- AAAH!""

The gun runner stumbled back into a bunch of his own crates, the Wolkar's blaster smoking as well as a fresh hole in Dromun's leg.

""See? No real punch to it. Just needs a bit more punch."" The Wolkar straddled over the man intimidatingly, a sadistic look on his face.

""Ok, so, tell us what we wanna know and you leave with just the one gunshot wound! Or was it two? Well, no more than six. But you walk out of here alive! Probably. Well, maybe. Actually, you know what, I probably shouldn't say for sure at this point 'cause he'll wanna break your fingers and who KNOWS what I'm gonna do to ya! So, anyway, you're gonna die, we get our info, and everybody's happy! Except you, the dead guy. And don't worry, unless  we find them your family will be completely safe. But, full disclosure, we are actually REALLY good at finding people so just be thankful you wont live to see what happens to them!""

Rennac had said that all with almost a tone of levity and joy. To the thug it would seem like the Wolkar was completely insane but Reaper would hopefully know this was just how Rennac ran an interrogation, quick, painful, and direct to the point.</div>"
21286,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 03:35:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus walked and watched in silence as the Wolkar went to work. Saying all of his strange banter and threats. Generally that wouldn't work on a Litharian, but this thug wasn't a Litharian, so maybe it would?

""We simply want to know where the weapons went. You didn't lose them, and I want to make some money. I hadn't planned on killing you, but apparently my friend here is out of his damn mind."" Virathus said, actually sounding sincere when he said Rennac was out of his damn mind.</div>"
21287,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 03:42:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Dromun was most certainly NOT a Litharian by any meaning of the word, having visibly wet himself in fear as the wolkar had gone on and on like it was another day at the office.

""I- I was just told to give them to some shadowy dude on the planet Felician! He seemed to be some reptilian looking dude! Shady as fuck but he paid me a ton of money. Just PLEASE don't kill me!"" 

The Wolkar simply smiled and nodded. ""Wish granted."" A sudden pop was heard as a tranq  dart shot from Rennac's gauntlet and sunk into the gun runner's neck, securing his hands to the crate with the foam before placing a blinking blue device next to the unconscious thug.

""The local authorities will pick him up. Now we have our heading! By the way, good acting back there. Thought you sounded really sincere back when you called me insane.""

He was intentionally laying this one over the plate, seeing if the seemingly stuck up Litharian had enough humor to take the open jab at him.</div>"
21288,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 04:02:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus watched as Rennac wrapped up his whole routine. Noddign when he made the comment about his good acting, ""Yeah acting, I was acting. I took some acting classes back in training.""

With that remark he turned around and started walking away, leaving the stand and starting his way back to the ship. ""I'll make sure the ship's engines are warm, feel free to go say bye to your girlfriend and collect whatever this guy is worth.""</div>"
21289,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 04:12:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac was a tad disappointed he couldn't get a jab from the Litharian, shaking his head. ""Jeez, I laid that one right over the plate and you still couldn't hit it! Guessing humor is one of the things they left out of your training."" 

They quickly made his way back to the ship with Reaper following, letting out a hoarse laughter at the girlfriend comment. ""And here I thought I wouldn't be able to get a joke out of you! There may be hope for you yet."" He went to Ketra's and gave her the money owed. She didn't earn her bonus since she got nothing on their true target besides some people looking to join him. Once he got back he strapped in and prepared to take off, looking back at Reaper with a wry grin. ""Oh, by the way, I'm not interested in that girl. I swing the other way."" He sat there and let that tidbit sink in for a moment, wondering if his species were in any way homophobic.</div>"
21290,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 04:25:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus made sure to keep his word once he got to the ship, firing up the engines and making sure the ship was in correct order as Rennac left to make a house call. With the engines running he began to hang up his weapons back in the secure containers in the bunks, also making sure nothing was missing. While he had faith in the hull of the ship holding, this planet didn't have a single good soul on it's entire surface, so better safe than sorry.

By the time Rennac came back Virathus was still in his armor, but his helmet was off for the first time since they got to this shit hole and he was seated in the pilot's chair, preparing the final take off sequence. Seeing the Wolkar he strapped in and waited for him to take the copilot's chair. At the remark he did get a crooked glance aimed at Rennac, not really sure how to make his confession, but he shook it off as another weird thing to come from his mouth.

With nothing left to stop them he engaged the primary thrusters and into the void they went. Wasn't a few more moments before he charted a course to Felician and they broke into warp space.</div>"
21291,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 04:33:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac smirked as it seemed Reaper was at least somewhat comfortable with the whole gay thing, half expecting his mind to just shut down and reboot after a minute or two. Once they were out of the atmosphere and on their way he brought up a map of the planet in question, looking it over.

""Well, this planet we're heading too... No major cities or town on the maps. At most there may be a few small villages but none that are recorded or well known. The place is a complete jungle, far too cluttered with trees to land in all but a few scarce spots. We'll check the man made landing areas first before we check the areas that are naturally occuring where someone can land with enough skill. Whats your experience with jungle combat and tracking? Anything firsthand?""</div>"
21292,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 05:09:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus was looking out the cockpit's window intently looking over the dense jungle while Rennac talked. When he got to the part about jungle combat he almost wanted to break out laughing, ""I am Litharian, I was born in the jungle. And just for the historical record, a Litharian in the jungle is the most frightful force in the galaxy.""

He was about to correct the ship's course so they'd be on course for a landing zone when Rennac's datapad lit up with warnings, each one saying that the firewall is being breached, but before anyone could react a new message came, this one saying it was already down. Next the INTCOM terminal began ringing, signaling that a call was incoming.

Virathus looked to Rennac with a confused and curious look. This whole thing was beyond his general knowledge and since Rennac wasn't very forthcoming about his system securities, this came as all the stranger.</div>"
21293,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 14:36:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac chuckled at Reaper's joke just as his datapad was going off with warnings, the Wolkar cursing and trying to stop the breach before it was utterly compromised a second later. Muttering another curse he scowled at Reaper. ""I TOLD you we should have removed that damn dataspike! Now our comms terminal is compromised! Next time we have an issue like this I'M making the call!""

The Wolkar began to remove all of the comm terminal's connections to the ship, even switching it over from the ship's power to it's own independent source just in case. Still, with everything he had  to keep a somewhat calm demeanor so not to give himself away as he answered.

""Listen, for the last time I told you holomarketers to stop calling! I'm happy with my insurance, I don't want a new cooling draft for my ship, and for the LAST time I am not interested in hearing the word of the lord and savior Tanaka.""

His voice was legitimately annoyed though he managed to make it seem like it was for a different reason, hopefully making the one on the other end believe he was just upset about another holo to holo salesman.</div>"
21294,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 17:00:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Who ever was on the other end of the call remained quiet as Rennac rambled about sales and Gods, but when he finished talking. ""Very cute Rennac, but I can see you."" The voice said, clearly distorted by an assortment of manipulations. ""And while I found your attempts to keep me out entertaining, I'm going to ask you to stop. It's starting to bother me.""

Virathus was idly listening while he was flying the ship, making sure to note the stranger's words.

""Now be a dear and fetch my agent for me."" The voice finished, staying silent uptil he had the man he wanted to talk to.

Virathus listened to the words and assuming Rennac glanced over at him when he was mentioned, gestured for the Wolkar to come back to the cockpit.</div>"
21295,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 19:14:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac was feeling less and less keen about this figure as he spoke, finally snapping when he said his agent. In Rennac's eyes that only meant one person. However, there was still the question of who was talking on the other end.

""Very well, before I do that let me ask you a question.""

Quick as ever he whipped out his pistol and pointed it at Reaper's head with one hand and had the other point his other pistol at the terminal. He was ready to destroy both if needed.

""When you saw me in my quarters at the palace, what did I underline in the documents and what was your response. If you're who I think you are your agent will be free of suspicion. Answer wrong, and your little plant will be feeling rather light headed followed by a severe case of death. If you are who I believe you to be, you will understand this to be a necessary check to be certain you're who I think you to be.""</div>"
21296,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 20:11:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The voice over the INTCOM ramained quiet for a time.

Virathus on the other hand wasn't ready to deal with a cocky ass wolf-boy thinking he could just execute him due to a call. He was already strapped in and flying the ship. So he sent it into a sharp nose dive while ducking his head to avoid any possible shot. The force caused anything in the chassis that wasn't properly secured to the floor to shoot up to the ceiling causing a series of thumps and whumps to come from behind him, one of those should have been Rennac.

Straightening out the ship just as violently as he had sent it down, he quickly activated the auto-pilot and unstrapped himself, swiftly getting out of his seat he grabbed the bars at on the walls that were on both sides of the cockpit's entryway and using his weight we flung his body forward feet first looking to double kick the Wolkar and hopefully cause enough shock to disarm him in one move.</div>"
21297,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 20:23:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's answer of loyalty came as soon as Reaper took the nose dive, about to send a spray of blaster bolts before he was launched into the top of the ship by the Litharian spy. Thankfully his armor helped him absorb the blow, taking a moment to lock  his helmet on place before he saw the flying double kick coming his way. He grunted and fell back with the blow, knocking the wind out of him for a moment before he got up and took a fighting stance and began to throw punches at the Litharian traitor toput him on the defensive. ""Ha! I should have known you were a traitor the moment you insisted we keep that damnable data spike! No matter. When I bring you head to Xilanthis alongside Klith's, it will just solidify me as being more trustworthy than the Council's own representative! May even cast doubt upon the Masters of eyes and war, leading to investigations into them as well."" One of his gauntlet blades extended to become a far more deadly attack, aiming to either cripple Reaper or severely wound him.</div>"
21298,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 20:40:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus did in fact go on the defensive blocking the Wolkar's wild attacks. Without a real target they were child's play to defend against, but they blade coming at him was targeted and had a reason behind it. Though it took effort to block, he slammed his body against the wall to dodge the blow and using his forearm he tried to slam the blade down towards the ground, for a rebuttal his other arm came to try and backhand the Wolkar to get some distance again.

Fighting an armed man without any weapons wouldn't be the fairest of fights. He need to arm himself somehow.</div>"
21299,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 20:54:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac thought about using his flamethrower to consume all the oxygen in the craft but decided against it, knowing the heat may damage some of the critical systems. For now he we stuck with his less volatile darts and his blades, knowing he would prefer to bleed out the traitor rather than simply let him suffocate peacefully. No. He would batter the traitor down and then drop him from the still moving ship to watch him splatter on the land below. He had his blade retract as it threatened to get stuck in the grated floor, his other arm swinging forward to block the backhand with a loud tang reverberating through the ship. He then lunged forward, his left arm's blade out to pierce Reaper's shoulder while his knee was launched right into the center  of the Litharian's chest.</div>"
21300,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:04:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus was having none of the Wolkar's tricks. He withdrew attack and used it to divert the Wolkar's blade over his shoulder into the bulkhead. The knee he took by bringing his own knee up, it hurt, but was severyly reduced from the original damage. Now the Wolf-boy was right on top of him with his back to a wall, using said wall to bashed into Rennac with his shoulder and body in an attempt to get some distance and put his to the ground.</div>"
21301,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:14:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Wolkar grunted as he felt his knee collide with his opponent's, retracting the blade into his gauntlet as he was body slammed by Reaper to force him back. However, his jetpack sprung to life and the Wolkar let loose a rocket assisted punch right where Reaper's gut was located, aiming to hit with as much force  as his suit could muster.</div>"
21302,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:19:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus took his chance at some breathing room to collect himself, but when Rennac returned on the offensive he sidestepped as best he could, using the jetpack's charge time to his advantage. Dodging the blow and as it impacted with the bulkhead he took his chance to grab his fist, bring it up over his head, and slam into the Wolkar's back.</div>"
21303,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:23:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's growl was audible through his helm as his punch hit and dented the bulkhead. OK, less force, more speed  and precision. He felt the overhead blow to his plating and was forced to one knee, balling up a fist and throwing a simple uppercut aimed right at his opponent's jaw. This was more focused on speed and less on force, likely only enough to kill or severely wound but would likely send him reeling.</div>"
21304,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-11 21:30:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus brought his arms back up to try and step back from Rennac to finally get some real breathing room when he lashed out again, though he had time to react, it wasn't enough. He yanked his head back, but it sent his left shoulder forward and the blow struck under his arm. He heard a crack as the armored wolf's glove met his armored arm. Wincing he took a few steps back, gaining distance and readying himself for a continued fight.

It was at this point that the INTCOM terminal came back to life, ""That's enough, I don't need you two killing each other. Rennac, you were busy talking about how I kidnapped you and I told you how stupid the notion was."" It wasn't exactly paraphrasing, but it was hopefully enough to convince the Wolkar that Xilanthis was the mysterious voice.</div>"
21305,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 00:08:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac was preparing a followup punch when he heard the INTCOM as well as what, well, wasn't quite what he was expecting, but was close enough nonetheless. ""The underlined bit was more  a jab at Karasis for nearly having the guards kill an unarmed diplomat, but close  enough. This WHOLE thing might have been avoided  if you were simply kind enough to answer when I was inquiring about the dataspike. Here I was  thinking you were Klith and Reaper here was the traitor that helped him escape. Next time could you give me a bit of a heads up?""

The Wolkar gave  Reaper a sheepish grin, figuring he would end  up owing the Litharian an apology. ""Sorry bout that by the way, but given the circumstances I figured you were the one who helped Klith. Mysterious dataspike, you wanting to keep  it in the system, etc.""</div>"
21306,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 03:08:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""I just did didn't I?"" The Master of Eyes said over the INTCOM unit. His voice was far to distorted to truly tell, but it seemed to have a hint of joy in it, as though he enjoyed toying with the two.

Virathus kept his guard up. Rennac may be done trying to kill him, but that doesn't mean he is simply willing to forgive him. He retained his fighting stance and angry eyes.

""Oh don't mind him, I'm sure he's already forgiven you. After all he didn't kill you during your fight and he isn't right now, so I think you're in the clear for now."" The Master of Eyes continued.</div>"
21307,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 03:21:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac simply rolled his eyes and facepalmed at the spymaster's response, shaking his head as he did so. He was SO not doing another op like this unless he got all the details up front. He could imagine the master of eyes with a shit eating grin after seeing the two batter each other for no reason. 

""Let me get this straight. You respond to my inquiries about the dataspike I suspected was planted by Klith's men, by using said dataspike to bypass  my firewall protocols and talk suspiciously to Reaper with a voice modulator which would be EXACTLY how Klith would contact us if he ever chose to do so? You, good sir, have one fucked up sense of humor. If I didn't nearly kill and/or get killed by Reaper here, I would be saluting you.""</div>"
21308,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 04:53:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The INTCOM system was silent for a few moments after Rennac had finished talking, only to come on with the same changed voice, ""The day I start being tracked by basic trace and record patterns is the day I retire. Every day is a challenge to let no one know you are on to them. Even if the ones who would know you are watching are the people you serve.""

Virathus was still quiet pissed at Rennac, but he did drop his fighting stance, though the angry eyes didn't vanish in the same manner. ""Sir with al due respect, you wanted to speak with me?""

""Yes of course. Klith knows you are coming. We can only assume he has set a sort of trap on this world. Be ready and be careful. Should I find any more information I shall contact you through this line."" The Master of Eyes said, and almost instantly after finishing the line was dropped.</div>"
21309,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 10:50:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac shook his head in exasperation at the spymasters need to be hidden even from his own allies, muttering a bit to himself. As soon as the INTCOM went off the Wolkar promptly facepalmed a second time. 

""That's it? Couldn't he have just said that and be done with it? And here I was hoping that there would be some vital Intel. Anyway, if this is the case then we'll need to change our tactics. There's gonna be slim to zero chance of a successful infiltration. Best shot we have is shock and awe unless you happen to have some top notch stealth gear. Another option is that one of us uses the ship to attack from overhead while the other gets Klith in the confusion. Suggestions?""

He saw the Librarians scowl and shook his head. ""Listen, with all that cryptic crap I was practically certain you were Kliths accomplice and when I stated that you didn't even try to defend yourself. If the situation was reversed and I insisted on keeping the dataspike and was suddenly contacted through it in such a manner by who you suspected was Klith, you would have come to the same conclusion. If you were indeed the accomplice and you knew I was aware of that, then you would have either tried to kill me or escape to inform your boss I was coming. Now that Xilanthis FINALLY informed me the dataspike was his, it clears up any suspicion.""</div>"
21310,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 18:51:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus was far from ready to just forgive Rennac, ""I'd like to think honor and loyalty didn't instantly put a gun to my head. What if it was Klith? And he was trying to get us to do his job for him? You would have killed me despite our days travelling together thanks to your paranoia.""

He started walking pasted Rennac to get to the bunks and then his gear. If they were going to be dealing with assassins and agents of a traitor, best be armed to the best you can be. Grabbing his rifle, pistols and their respective BURSTs, a few STILETTOs, A fresh KINDLE cartridge, the PRISM Unit, and SCYTHE.</div>"

""Then why would I also have a gun pointed at the terminal at the same time? I took that possibility into account. Based on your joined reactions I would decide to either shoot you or shoot both and destroy the terminal before he could verify I had shot the bulkhead next to you. Then we could have also had the element of surprise when he realizes i hadn't killed you as he suspected. Since you suddenly jolted the ship to try and throw me off, I made the sensible conclusion you were aiming to attack me. Instead of at least trying to show you were innocent, you attacked me. Even without the whole possible traitor scenario, I would act to deal with the threat. Typically when one is accused of treason, the reaction is pleading their innocence rather than attacking an ally.""

As Reaper went off to the bunks he went to the cockpit, starting his analysis for possible spots the shipment of guns would have been delivered. Though at this point Rennac just wanted to find someone he could punch, burn, slice, blow up, or otherwise maim as his view on Litharians was overall growing lower.</div>"
21312,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-12 20:33:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Seems it posted the first time. Got a weird timeout glitch. </div>"

One little detail Rennac had forgotten, ""He said that he could see you, so feel free to shoot the bulkhead as much as you want, he'd still know I was sitting in the pilot's chair. That is why I gestured for you to come into the damn cockpit. I asked you to trust me and you put a gun to the back on my head.""

He turned about face and walked over to the airlock door, ""Just set us down somewhere.""</div>"
21314,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 00:09:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and shook his head. ""True, he could SEE us at that moment, but his ability to do so was wired through the data spike in the terminal. Shooting that would cut off his control completely."" The Wolkar let out a sigh of agitation and relaxed his shoulders, trying to get the tension out. 

""Look, I'm sorry OK? Besides, it's not like Klith is the only one I expected to try and kill me. I take it you were not told about Karasis's actions during our first meeting? When he tried to make this just another bounty job and I told him I couldn't accept a bounty that had not been processed through the guild first, he decided to have the guards come in and threaten me. He had his guards ready to kill an unarmed diplomat, over some simple protocol I would have had to follow if he had his way.. From my understanding, you are partially under his command too. I don't know much about your honor code, but threatening one who comes unarmed as en envoy of peace is not the mark of a trustworthy society. The main reason I didn't simply walk away is because I have hope that people like Karasis do not make up the majority of your people.""

He paused and gathered himself, finding a place to long quickly before he punched two sets of code into his datapad and handed it to Reaper. ""This is the frequency to my comms gear. The one below that, is the master override code for my armor. With that you can cause my wrist rockets to detonate in the tubes, make my fuel tank rupture, even lock my armor and leave me to starve. You said you wanted trust? I'd say this is pretty damn trusting considering you kept me in the dark about that dataspike until just now. You could have told me about it from day 1. You could have told me about it when we left Shad-noir. Instead, you kept that from me, you hid a piece of what we would need to keep in touch with those who are helping us and look at what happened. I wouldn't have freaked out if I wasn't led on to think it was planted by Klith and considered it a threat to the mission that YOU insisted to keep. That on top of everything else, just made it a <span class=""bb-i"">little</span> difficult to trust you since I knew clearly have not been able to trust me since the start!""

Given everything the wolkar had seen about the ugly side of his people as well as all the secrets and lies, it was hard to blame him for having trouble thinking Reaper had been honest with him. Rennac had felt betrayed since the start, and it showed.</div>"
21315,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 01:01:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus listened to Rennac, about to punch him again when he spoke of how his entire race didn't know trust or honor. They were the embodiment of honor and a bounty who would rather put a gun to their partner's head had no place to judge anyone.

When Rennac handed him the codes to... well... Rennac, he gave him a queer look. The man insults him and then hands over the codes that could kill him, he was either extremely stupid with a death wish or actually trying to win him back over, in a very, very strange way.

Then right back to the insults. This Wolkar was a strange, strange man. ""You think I knew what was on the other side of that hole? I received my orders and they said to leave it. To claim that I'm without trust and honor is a lie when all I've been doing is trusting my commanding officer and honoring my race's codes. You really want to make this up to me? This is a just start."" He finished holding up teh codes that Rennac had given him.</div>"
21316,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 01:22:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and shook his head. ""I do not believe you are without honor. Quite the contrary in fact. Even with this you show more honor than I dare to say a few of my allies  within the guild. Given differing circumstances and more transparency, much of this would have turned out differently in my mind. I have merely seen instances of dishonor and noted them. It is my hope that those who showed those acts are in the vast minority. If I had believed your people as a whole to be without honor, I would never have accepted this mission and Ferran would be cutting ties with your people entirely for a time no less than a decade. I almost did after Karasis nearly had me killed in that council room. It was Xiranthis who turned me around and talked me into staying. He and the other council members showed me more than enough honor to redeem the actions of Karasis, even after he nearly had me killed. For a Wolkar to change his opinion of a race that had treated him so harshly during talks of peace is... well, lets just say this will be a first. Normally when we see a race as unable to work with others, we see something that would destroy us if we ever allowed them be among us. You have been honorable, even more so now that I know you too were unaware of what the dataspike was. Seems Xiranthis keeps his own men in the dark as much as he does his enemies.. I'm just used to having all the facts that my people have upfront, no surprises that could potentially get a group killed.""

The wolkar went to a projector screen in the ship's lounge and brought up a hologram of the planet below, six red circles shown and a few smaller yellow ones coming up as well

""For now, we have a good half dozen man made landing zones to check. No beacons active so we'll need to eyeball it. Would say split up and cover more ground, but if Klith knows we're coming it would be foolish to walk into an ambush alone. Would recommend either sticking together in a loose formation or having one examine the area in the open while the other stays hidden closeby, but still in contact with silent radio checks. Though, there is still one question..""

Rennac sat  silently down in one of the chairs nearby, removing his helmet with a pondering expression on his face.

""With what Klith knows, how serious is a threat to your people? I only ask this because  we need to face the possibility he may escape if we go easy and use non-lethal methods. He has escaped once before, and he can likely do so again. I am all for having him on trial and publicly punished, but I am not comfortable doing so if it puts a planet of people in danger. You are a part of the covert soldier unit he was previously in charge of, and I need your honest opinion on this matter: Does Klith know enough to put your world and it's people in considerable danger?  Is he too dangerous to try and take in alive?""</div>"
21317,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 02:55:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Karasis is a shining pillar of honor and I won't have you insulting him anymore!"" Virathus snapped at the Wolkar. It was true Karasis was a bit head strong and overly-vocal, but that doesn't mean he isn't a man of pure honor.

When Rennac asked about Klith he visibly got a change of face. ""Klith isn't a threat to the Litharians, he was the Master of Eyes. He knew enough about Litharians, but it would be more of a threat had the Master of Structure or War gone rouge. He is a threat to ever other known race in the galaxy.""</div>"
21318,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 03:33:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The Wolkar's brow furrowed at the knowledge that this man had such knowledge that he could threaten not only his own race but that of every other star-system as well. Suddenly the scales were tipped in a way he had not anticipated. 

""If this man is as dangerous as you say, then it is even more imperative that he not escape no matter the cost. I don't know how long you may have served under  him or if you knew him personally. If it looks like he even has the slightest chance of escaping, we'll  both need to take the shot. I am unsure  whether your assignment was to bring him back strictly alive, but I know I cannot let a threat like that escape  if it looks like he might. If it comes down to it, I hope you do not begrudge me for doing what I think is needed to save lives.""</div>"
21319,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 04:01:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus pondered on the threat that was Klith, realizing that while he didn't trust Rennac, Klith did need to be eliminated. Though Rennac was right, ""I am ordered to bring him in alive."" Klith may be a great threat, but orders are orders.

Virathus walked back to the cockpit to see where they were going to land. Up here they wouldn't be catching Klith and tha junlge looked enticing. It's been far to long since he'd been in a good and proper hunt.</div>"
21320,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 04:05:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac looked a bit solemn at that. Figures. They'd be at odds about this too. 

""Lets just pray there is no risk of his escape. Best if we can avoid that quarrel as well. This rate may be the only fight we can avoid..""

Going from how much visible use there was he started at a landing zone a little above the equator  of the planet, performing a scan with the ship sensors. 

""So, whats  our search pattern? Stick together in loose formation or try and trick them into thinking we split up only to have one covertly shadow the other?""</div>"
21321,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 04:27:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus didn't even have to ponder the possibilities, ""I'll never be seen on the planet. My systems allow me to run silent. Do what you will, but I'll hunt the bastard down. Try to not be afraid.""

His armor was packed with a cloaking system that allowed him to phase out of visible range. Given the thick jungle, he would be a ghost in a land of invisibility. Though if Klith had  half a brain he'd have sensors to look for Litharian cloaking. So hopefully the Wolkar could have the ability to draw sensors to himself.</div>"
21322,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 14:21:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac snarled a bit at that insult. ""I'm NOT afraid. I am merely running this smart. The closer we are to his location when he sees us, the less time he will have to escape. If we can capture him before his goons know we're there, even better. Actually... How arrogant would you say Klith is? Would he have intruders captured alive for interrogation and such? We could do a trojan horse and  have him capture me. With your cloak you can likely slip in unnoticed while they bring me to him. We'll just need to turn the tables when we get the opportunity. Then again, this is all banking on the fact that he doesn't just have me killed on sight.""</div>"
21323,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-13 18:47:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus paced a bit, antsy to get on the ground and half tempted to jump out the airlock to get there. ""Klith was a Master of Eyes, he doesn't if you are captured or not if you don't hold any value. Given that you are a bounty hunter, he couldn't care less if you came to him missing your head.""</div>"
21324,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 00:04:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac sighed and shook his head. ""And here you keep focusing on the bounty hunter thing and nothing else. Guessing that title also blinds Litharians from also remembering I am the Alpha of the Shadowclaw clan as well as their representative on the council of Alphas, the chief supporter of the Natre-Dorme university, a chief strategic advisor for the Wolkar Sirius, and a top FERAL NEXT pilot. No, just throw all that out the window..""

The Wolkar muttered and grabbed his sniper blaster rifle from the back, slinging it across his back and landing the ship in a small clearing near their first suspected point. 

""Keep cloaked and stay a good distance away from me while we search. Widened pattern will cover more ground and will keep you from getting caught in any traps they'll deploy against me since I'll still be visible. Use the comm codes to radio me directly so we wont give away each other's position.""</div>"
21325,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 00:46:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus was about to hit Rennac again, he simply didn't get it. A honorless cur is what the Litharians hate and a bounty hunter is nothing more than a man who sells his honor to the highest bidder, or in his case turn on his partner over a damn INTCOM call. All of this stupid fluff didn't matter.

When they landed he wasted no time in getting away from Rennac, entering in the com codes and cloaking a few seconds after that. As soon as the airlock on the ship opened he bolted out before Rennac so one man eexiting wouldn't seem so strange.

Virathus unslung his rifle using his heads up display to check the plasma charge and to have it set with Rail Rounds. The Wolkar may be worried about traps, but his concerns were for targets.</div>"
21326,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 01:14:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Reaper was mistaken in thinking the Wolkar was only worried about traps. He was worried about the traps AND the soldiers that would come and attack him while he was pinned or immobilized. He drew both pistols  and started up his visor's spectral scans, going through thermal and even motion tracking so he would still be aware of Reaper's position. Better to know your partner's angle when you came upon a set of enemies and figure which he would most easily be able to take. 

He approached the first possible landing site, peeking up through the jungle brush to see if there was any activity.</div>"
21327,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:26:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus ran out of the ship and across to the nearest tree pressing his back to it. Scanning his surroundings he saw that they were in the clear, for now. Using his armors traction pads and plasma jet burst systems he very quickly climbed up the tree to get a better advantage point. It was when he was up at the top that he began scanning through the thick foliage. Unfortunately it was too thick and nothing came back.

Perhaps it would be best to make them come out of hiding, ""Rennac, start moving. I don't see anything around us on my systems."" After making contact through the radio he took up a position in the tree waiting for the Wolkar to pick a direction.</div>"
21328,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:32:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac likewise found nothing on his scans, his jetpack heating up as he opened up his comm. ""Guess it's time to kick the hornet's nest. I see you on motion tracker. Gonna see if some fireworks doesn't get some attention.""

He flew p into the air above the treeline, plenty high to be seen with ease as he brought his wrist up and took aim with the rocket. He fired into the middle of the man made landing zone, hoping to get some attention drawn to his location and see if there would be anyone firing on him that he could pummel and get info out of.</div>"
21329,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:47:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus watched Rennac soar into the air and fire a rocket off it some direction. A strange tactic, but sure to make their presence known for a good while.

He sat in the tree watching for any changes around them, but again nothing seemed to happen, show up, or anything else really.

Although unbeknownst to two, several agents began moving in towards their position. They were out of scanner range, but closing fast. Each one armed and armored in Litharian garb and trained in the lands judging by the way they expertly navigated the jungle.</div>"
21330,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:51:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">rennac remained airborn after his attack, putting his motion tracker on to see if there were any movement. There were a few cretures that had started to move away from the disturbance, though any enemies closing in were still outside of scanner range.

""Gonna give it a few minutes, see if they dispatch anyone. If not, this spot may be a dud. We can pack in and move to the next area.""</div>"
21331,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:58:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">For a while nothing happened, but then Rennac's motion sensors would have lit up with several incoming bogeys. But after a short while they multiplied exponentially, turning from about 10 to 40. Comign from all directions they advanced rapidly.

Virathus watched as his motion sensors became useless, clearly whatever was coming had deployed some kind of motion tracker disruptor. Keeping a keen eye he switched to thermal vision to try and find whatever was coming.</div>"
21332,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-14 03:34:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Rennac's eyes went right to the blips on his motion tracker, eyes widening in surprise as he saw the blips go from 10 to about 40 coming at all sides. He touched down onto the jungle floor, turning it off and revving his jetpack.

""Reaper, shut off thermals. It's gonna get  hot and I don't wanna blind you from the sudden flare up. Look for where the smoke seems to shift oddly with nothing there.""

He gave a second or  two before he put his jetpack on full blast but no thrust, disengaging the thrusters and running only the fuel injector pumps to keep himself from flying off. This in turn creates a thick fog of smoke around the Wolkar that would show the manipulation from a cloaked figure walking through it. Wasteful. Yes. Effective. Hopefully. All else failed he could do sweeps with his flamethrower, figuring Litharian cloaking tech was probably not fire proof.</div>"
21333,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-15 02:50:00,FrozenPhoenix,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Virathus watched in silence as the blimps on his sensors grew closer and closer, knowing that they wouldn't be a good indicator for finding them specifically, but it gave a general description of how far away they were. Using his thermal he rapidly scanned around not finding anything until something ran across his range, a thick red stain against the rest of the world. He zeroed in on it, taking aim when the target stopped, but then it just vanished.

All around Rennac the incoming agents stopped and observed from afar, all activating their respective cloaking systems, which would shield them from ocular and thermal visions. All in turn they readied their rifles and started to move in for a shot against the Wolkar and all that dust he was kicking up wouldn't do a thing for their thermal visioned scopes.</div>"
21334,The Endless Struggle,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76351-the-endless-struggle,['Casual'],2015-02-15 03:21:00,Rennac Faintheart,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The dust he was kicking up wouldn't affect their thermals, but the smoke would. With a mental trigger he set his engines to be at just a bare simmer, spouting out plenty of exhaust to create a thick cloud. This in turn would flare up Reaper's sensors as well, but he did warn him to turn off his thermals. Once a thick enough blanket of smoke was made he cut his jetpack  and ducked into the smoke, seeing if the Litharian traitors would try and venture in. If not, then he would need to give them reason to flee flee inside where he could remove the advantage from their cloaks.</div>"

Though if you know how it works, you also know how to get around it. He closed his eyes and opened his mind, seeing the world around him through the Psionic plane, sensing the presences of the agents as well as Rennac. He found his target again and took aim with his mind, making sure he had a clear shot when he pulled the trigger, releasing a lightning fast shot of super dense plasma that was a Rail Round. It shot straight through the Litharian's head and didn't stop. It continued through a nearby tree and only vanished into the ground as it's way of stopping.

This Litharian agent who was shot dropped instantly, but the rest couldn't find where it came from, so their attention was on the threat they could see. They were about to turn Rennac into a pile of plasma slag when he spit up all the exhaust shrouding him from thermal vision and causing a few blind shots to wizz past Rennac's head. But instead of stepping into the shroud a few instead drew a few plasma grenades, armed them, and lobbed them into the cloud hoping to blow him up, or at least spread the fog out with the blast.</div>"

He kept his head low as the blind shots flew by, cursing his luck as he saw the grenades. Grumbling to himself he re-ignited his jetpack and flew i the direction a few of the grenades had come from, flying full tilt out while also letting his flamethrowers loose on any in his general path. No matter ow expensive your cloaking device may be, it didn't help much when you were on fire.</div>"

Waiting briefly to make sure the plasma cycler had cooled off the battery he let fly another round.

Once again another open space erupted into a red paste as another agent's head was popped. This time though a few agents had their eyes open and saw the initial flash from Virathus' gun. Two agents turned and began opening fire at the spot where Virathus was.

Noticing the attention he was receiving he rolled off the branch he was standing on, falling off to rapidly avoid the shots. Once he was by the ground he fired the plasma jets on his armor to correct and reduce the landing's impact. It made another flash be he was quick to change positions in an attempt to stay hidden.

As for the agents Rennac was charging the flames were not as effective he may have hoped. The synthetic and metallic armor wasn't very flammable allowing most of the agents that were in range to roll away from the flames and seek cover before any real damage could be sustained. One man however was directly in front of Rennac and received a full blast of fire. While he didn't ignite, his armor heated up rapidly and some of the lighter spots burned his skin. He wasn't dead, but he was crippled and screaming.

The rest of the agents began to return fire now that their target was lit up with a bright tail pointing to exactly where he was. Plasma charges went sailing towards Rennac for several different directions.</div>"

Explosives were quickly becoming his now preferred method of attack as he saw the plasmacharges coming at him. He quickly raised his wrist mounted rocket launcher and fired, setting the rocket on a time delay rather than having it detonate on impact. He was singed a bit from the blast, but hopefully it would have throw off the charges enough for him to escape their blast radius. He fired suppressing shots from his blaster as his wrist unit reloaded for another shot, bringing it to bear once more before firing another of the dangerous projectiles right next to where one of the agents was taking cover. Would not be a direct hit, but the blast radius would still do a good bit of harm.</div>"

The remnants of the past, Old Ones formed from stardust who barely remember their birth, artifacts and ruins left behind by countless dead empires, they are all tools with which to ascend. Some empire builders were created by Old Ones. Some grew, and built interstellar nations with their own sweat and blood.   In the beginning, there was Life. Life flourished, for it was wise and old. It had existed many millennia and learned the way of things. It learned what was good, and what wasn’t. It learned how to navigate its own world first, then it struck out into the void with metal boxes that pushed themselves. It crafted weapons with which to suppress its own ambition, and entertain a taste for violence. It built mountainous structures of glass and steel to defend its thinkers and workers. Life flourished. And then, when every star in the sky was accounted for, Life looked around and grew confused. It was made to expand and learn, was it not? Surely there was more to life than this single star cluster? How many other lives had been subjugated and exterminated to serve the cause of this one, insignificant Life? This star cluster was not special. It had arms, and a heart, and a black void around it, and that was all. Life thought this insufficient. They took another star cluster, because they could. Then another, and another, and another. Life never met another living thing that had as many stars as it did. It began to believe, perhaps with some arrogance, that there were no others who had so many stars as it did. Life was mistaken, naturally. Life came upon a star cluster that was more than six times the size of the home star cluster. Clearly this was a place to be valued, and conquered with much haste. It did conquer, and it built great citadels all across the star cluster. It dominated the forces of gravity and time. It was at the waning of life’s golden age that it learned how it had erred. This star cluster belonged to other, equally great lives. They were not pleased. They ate life, tore it asunder, and hunted it. They consumed countless citadels life had worked so long to construct. They had no pity for the intruder, and hunted it all the way back to its home. The Hunters did not expect, however, to find the most stalwart defenses so soon. Life and the Hunters battled for thousands of years over the home of Life, for it had an equally extraordinary amount of time to become so well defended that nothing could break its defenses in a mere millennia, or even a thousand millennias. Their war would be eternal, but it would be a far away thing that only echoed across the stars every few million years. It is nothing for you to concern yourself with, little offspring of Life and the Hunters.

Hero Name/Title: Rennac Shadowfang

Alignment: Wolkar Pack Collective

Physiology: A more lithe build than most, using his heavy armor to counter for the natural bulk many of his peers may have. He trained hard with his armor, practically living in it and following his mentor’s words. “Your armor should be like a second skin, more comfortable than a warm bed.” The Wolkar took this to heart with his training, keeping it on nearly at all times save for the occasional formal event or when he bathed. This resulted in him being quite strong and retaining most of his mobility even with the heavy plated power armor. While those who are used to wearing light armor will still be able to outmaneuver him, he can keep up with most and take a good deal of punishment while doling out just as much.

Psychology: A strong willed adult, his moods shift from cocky and friendly to calm and deathly serious. He knows when to relax and poke fun and when he needs to be focused. Even when he takes a fight lightly he is actually plotting everything out in his head, strategizing and forming plans A, B, and even C all the while.  Much like the rest of his kin, he is very open minded to other cultures and species, not above drinking with even the leaders of other factions so long as he knew he could trust them. He would often call a few of his closer friends a pack brother after they fought together in battle. To him, his friends are just as much family as his parents or siblings.

Appearance: Dark blue fur where the head is exposed and tufted ears, fur color the same for the rest of his body. A tall and lanky build is hidden behind thick durasteel power armor at almost all times, a part of the Wolkar’s constantly ongoing training. 

Status: Alpha of the Shadowclaw pack and representative to the Alpha Council.



Equipment:
Beskad plated power armor with wrist mounted weaponry. Upgraded with energy dampening technology to reduce the impact of exotic energy types like psionic or anti-proton attacks.
Has upgraded the strength assist unit inside his suit for increased yield.
Energy dampening shield to further increase defense against energy based attacks.
Jetpack with one anti-vehicle missile when deemed needed for a mission.
On board medical probes and AED
Visored helm with full heads up display and connected to the Collective’s military database and the Mercenary Guild’s bounty boards. Must be in the same orbit of a Wolkar ship to establish connection.
Multiple gas cylinders to modify his equipment on the fly
Combustible cylinder- causes laser based weapons to burn more easily, good for those with no or light armoring though ineffective against heavy armor.
Ionic Cylinder - Magnetizes weaponry and armor, causing some electrical current to run through the weaponry as well as partially magnetize his armor. Magnetizing armor partially makes it dissipate more harm from metallic and energy weapons though his own weaponry also loses some of it’s lethal potential in favor of defense.
Armor Piercing Cylinder- Allows blasters and weaponry greater penetration power at the cost of drastically reducing firing speed. Only advisable for large scale fortifications and slow moving armored enemies
Combat Support Cell- redirects part of the suit’s offensive energy to the medical probes and equipment, making them function more efficiently and overcharge healing rays. Can even repurpose blasters to fire cauterizing bolts to seal bleeding wounds though they will not replace emergency medical treatment.

Weapons
Blaster pistols for mid to close range combat
Single anti-vehicle missile on his jetpack
Gauntlet mounted weapons
Rail Laser
Fires a single high impact blast meant to do damage to armor. Takes a second to charge
Flamethrower
Dart launcher
neural jolt
distraction
Toxic dart
Only good for sneak attacks on unarmored foes
Tranq dart
See above
Explosive dart
3 second delay. Can attach magnetically to armor or with strong adhesive at the tip of the dart
Electro dart
8 second long range tazer. Will also affect armored targets unless their armor is insulated  from shock.
Wrist Mounted Rockets
Grapple Line
Mainly used to tangle and capture enemies but can also be used to reach high locations should jetpack be damaged.
Immobilizing Foam Spray
Sprays a rapidly solidifying foam which coats the target, becoming hard as concrete in seconds and becomes as hard as standard steel after a few minutes of setting. Since the foam is porous it can even be applied over the face while not endangering the target’s life and allowing easy air flow.
only good for securing subdued and defeated enemies alive. Cannot be used properly otherwise. Mainly used by bounty hunters for live bounties. 
Retractable Gauntlet blades
Collapsible 3 foot blades
Nanite reinforced
Sniper rifle for long range
Only VERY occasionally used, preferring to fight up close

Rennac’s FERAL: Vanguard

A moderately heavy armored two leg model FERAL which carries one of the few  Assault armor units as well as sporting a moderately sized hanger unit in the legs. Heavily modified to suit his quick and deadly combat style. Though it is heavier, Rennac has overhauled the booster units to compensate.
Right arm: Gattling energy rifle
Large energy bolts fired at a high rate  to pepper more lightly armored vehicles
Left arm: Moonlight energy blade
Deadly close range weapon. Can cause severe damage to even strongly reinforced defenses
Left back: High action missiles
Moderate yield missiles designed for dogfighting. Advanced lock technology and maneuverability fins make it difficult to refocus them on an alternate target
Right back: Rail cannon
Long range death dealer. Strong against even the toughest of armor. However, it requires the FERAL to be completely still and braced to use with any precision over long range. Can be used while moving though accuracy is reduced.</div>"

Species Name: Wolkar

Human Ancestry: N

Racial Orientation: Cunning and voracious fighters with a great curiosity for new technology and discovery. Heavy tech focus fighting with group strategy and tactics.

Home world Type: A lush forest planet with sky cities hovering overhead. The Wolkar designed intricate systems to distribute light to the forests below to simulate the day cycle despite the planet’s constructed hi-tech shell. Primarily civilians only go down when they are certified to show they can survive on their own in case of emergency due to the vicious predators down below. Despite the few civilians that go down, it  is used often by the military and guard units for training.

Physiology: The Wolkar are best described as wolf men capable of traveling on both to legs or moving on all fours for heightened mobility. Their musculature ranges from light and quick to hulking berserkers, varying mainly thanks to variances concerning where they choose to apply themselves within the pack. Those who are more tech oriented have smaller frames and builds to better fit within repair conduits and tend to have fur colors that match more with the metal grating they find themselves in. Their fingers are also much more nimble to handle the smaller tools needed for their jobs, dexterity gained by working with small circuits over time. The packs that are more warrior based will be much larger in build with stronger limbs for fighting, even their claws gaining length and a keener edge for that added combat advantage. Typically the claws would only be used when challenging another for dominance if done in the more traditional style of challenge or as impromptu tools for carving out arrows and spears should they find themselves running low on supplies and need to create improvised weapons. The more modern tech has removed the need to use these claws as weapons to the point that it is almost taboo to use them for most combat situations. Though some fur colors are more easily found in certain packs most colors can be found within the collective. The ears of the Wolkar are typically canine with tufts of fur inside to act as a barrier for extremely high pitched noise. Typically these ears can move on their own, coming farther up to hear more clearly or press close to the head and tight over the fur tufts to muffle ear piercing sounds like the roar of a ship’s engine. Wolkar can see easily in the dark, their eyes easily adjusting to various levels of light. However, quick changes from one extreme to another, such as going from jet black night to a piercing white light of a flashbang grenade, can strongly disorient them and leave them recovering for several minutes without eye gear to lessen the effect. Sense of smell has over the years been muted down over the years due to the recent rush of exposure to starship fumes and other pollutants, being somewhere below tracking dogs and a standard human in terms of smell sensitivity. The few packs who have their warriors spend most of their time in the forests below the sky-cities can however train their sense of smell to return to their original sharpness.

Government Type: Pack-type hierarchy. Similar to wolf packs, the Wolkar believe in strong leadership and right of challenge by combat. The Alpha is the overall leader of the pack with a Beta and Omega below him. In order to become the Alpha, one has to first defeat the Omega and keep his position for one month before he can then challenge the Beta. Once he becomes the Beta he must wait a year before he can challenge the Alpha. This is only within the pack and there is a collective known as the Alpha Council. The head of the council is known as the Sirius, the only one the other Alpha’s follow and obey. This tiered challenge system ensures strong leadership while also ensuring that power is not constantly changing hands. Even after an Alpha is defeated he is then made into the Beta so they can guide the new Alpha in their duties. Despite the competitive nature needed  in such a society, it is well recognized that you only call a challenge when there is no immediate danger or when it will not cause chaos in a time of trouble. In times of war a challenge would only be issued if the majority believed the current Sirius was incapable or negligent. The Wolkar are surprisingly a close knit community, acting as a massive family while even accepting outsiders into their pack so long as they pass the proper tests and trials to prove their resolve to join the pack. 

History: Originally a tribal culture, they were primarily hunters and farmers for centuries. They were at the stage of going from using skilled artisans to industrialization when a freighter ship crash landed on their planet, causing first contact to be established with the rest of the galaxy and allowing the Wolkar their first grasp of true technology.  It had been such a large leap from where they were that many had delved headlong into studying, and soon mastering, these new devices. In short order the Wolkar went from catching up to the advances in technology to becoming pioneers in the fields, using their cunning and analyzing gained hunting the predators of the wilds to figuring out new advances and applications of technology. Today they have made floating sky-cities which cover almost the entirety of the forest below, using advanced systems to deliver sunlight and rain water to maintain the ecosystem. They have also made themselves well renowned for their mercenaries and bounty hunters, becoming a base of the galactic mercenary guild in exchange for access to the advanced battle armors and weapons the Wolkar have created under the condition they not be sold to the other nations behind their backs. While the Wolkar have been happy to sell their technology used for agriculture or medicine, trading military equipment is highly regulated  and dealt with most harshly if any smuggler is found trying to smuggle Wolkar tech off of the planet. Their overall specialization lies in their advanced power armor and cybernetics augmentation. While they only use robotic limb weapons in the case of wounded veterans on active duty, they do have most Wolkar set up with a cybernetic connector port at the back of the neck, serving to connect them directly to technology. Whether it be citizens connecting directly to the galactic net or soldiers wiring their brains to work their armor weapons with a thought, this connection gives the Wolkar unrivaled control over technology. They have even created strength assist technology that works in tandem with their body’s motions, acting as added muscle that works in sync with the user’s actual body. These advancements were later pushed to the next level when they discovered a new mineral ore which they later called Beskad, becoming many times more durable than what had previously been the galaxy’s strongest malleable metal that can be found naturally. To this day all Wolkar ships are plated with this rare metal, used only when durability was  the absolute top priority in the construction of anything that could use metal. While even Wolkar children are capable of creating basic robotics, there is a university dedicated to creating new machines. There is already a host of high grade war mechs and tanks, not limited to the newest weapon in the Wolkar arsenal: The FERALS. 

These armored mechs can be heavily modified to suit different roles in battle from heavy missile support, to artillery, to high speed close combat specialist vehicles. They are designed to only be operable through a Wolkar neural connector and sport a wide arsenal. They are all equipped with flight boosters, quick boosters for evasion, as well as a energy armor system which, with the right tinkering and modification, can be expended to create a shockwave of devastating energy. In addition, each part is highly customizable, even capable of exchanging the standard two leg design for a tank leg unit or even four legs for stability. A FERAL can hold several weapons. Typically it has one for each hand, and two back units. While most FERALs found in the field  will carry missiles, standard energy rifles, and a grenade launcher, most of the more notable and specialized FERAL pilots equip their units with an energy blade to cut through heavy armor. The back units can carry EX boosters to boost maneuverability, carry missiles, or even energy and rail cannons for doling out a long ranged barrage.

While those who are used to wearing light armor will still be able to outmaneuver him, he can keep up with most and take a good deal of punishment while doling out just as much.

Psychology: A strong willed adult, his moods shift from cocky and friendly to calm and deathly serious. He knows when to relax and poke fun and when he needs to be focused. Even when he takes a fight lightly he is actually plotting everything out in his head, strategizing and forming plans A, B, and even C all the while.  Much like the rest of his kin, he is very open minded to other cultures and species, not above drinking with even the leaders of other factions so long as he knew he could trust them. He would often call a few of his closer friends a pack brother after they fought together in battle. To him, his friends are just as much family as his parents or siblings.

Appearance: Dark blue fur where the head is exposed and tufted ears, fur color the same for the rest of his body. A tall and lanky build is hidden behind thick durasteel power armor at almost all times, a part of the Wolkar’s constantly ongoing training. 

Status: Alpha of the Shadowclaw pack and representative to the Alpha Council.



Equipment:
Beskad plated power armor with wrist mounted weaponry. Upgraded with energy dampening technology to reduce the impact of exotic energy types like psionic or anti-proton attacks.
Has upgraded the strength assist unit inside his suit for increased yield.
Energy dampening shield to further increase defense against energy based attacks.
Jetpack with one anti-vehicle missile when deemed needed for a mission.
On board medical probes and AED
Visored helm with full heads up display and connected to the Collective’s military database and the Mercenary Guild’s bounty boards. Must be in the same orbit of a Wolkar ship to establish connection.
Multiple gas cylinders to modify his equipment on the fly
Combustible cylinder- causes laser based weapons to burn more easily, good for those with no or light armoring though ineffective against heavy armor.
Ionic Cylinder - Magnetizes weaponry and armor, causing some electrical current to run through the weaponry as well as partially magnetize his armor. Magnetizing armor partially makes it dissipate more harm from metallic and energy weapons though his own weaponry also loses some of it’s lethal potential in favor of defense.
Armor Piercing Cylinder- Allows blasters and weaponry greater penetration power at the cost of drastically reducing firing speed. Only advisable for large scale fortifications and slow moving armored enemies
Combat Support Cell- redirects part of the suit’s offensive energy to the medical probes and equipment, making them function more efficiently and overcharge healing rays. Can even repurpose blasters to fire cauterizing bolts to seal bleeding wounds though they will not replace emergency medical treatment.

Weapons
Blaster pistols for mid to close range combat
Single anti-vehicle missile on his jetpack
Gauntlet mounted weapons
Rail Laser
Fires a single high impact blast meant to do damage to armor. Takes a second to charge
Flamethrower
Dart launcher
neural jolt
distraction
Toxic dart
Only good for sneak attacks on unarmored foes
Tranq dart
See above
Explosive dart
3 second delay. Can attach magnetically to armor or with strong adhesive at the tip of the dart
Electro dart
8 second long range tazer. Will also affect armored targets unless their armor is insulated  from shock.
Wrist Mounted Rockets
Grapple Line
Mainly used to tangle and capture enemies but can also be used to reach high locations should jetpack be damaged.
Immobilizing Foam Spray
Sprays a rapidly solidifying foam which coats the target, becoming hard as concrete in seconds and becomes as hard as standard steel after a few minutes of setting. Since the foam is porous it can even be applied over the face while not endangering the target’s life and allowing easy air flow.
only good for securing subdued and defeated enemies alive. Cannot be used properly otherwise. Mainly used by bounty hunters for live bounties. 
Retractable Gauntlet blades
Collapsible 3 foot blades
Nanite reinforced
Sniper rifle for long range
Only VERY occasionally used, preferring to fight up close

Rennac’s FERAL: Vanguard

A moderately heavy armored two leg model FERAL which carries one of the few  Assault armor units as well as sporting a moderately sized hanger unit in the legs. Heavily modified to suit his quick and deadly combat style. Though it is heavier, Rennac has overhauled the booster units to compensate.
Right arm: Gattling energy rifle
Large energy bolts fired at a high rate  to pepper more lightly armored vehicles
Left arm: Moonlight energy blade
Deadly close range weapon. Can cause severe damage to even strongly reinforced defenses
Left back: High action missiles
Moderate yield missiles designed for dogfighting. Advanced lock technology and maneuverability fins make it difficult to refocus them on an alternate target
Right back: Rail cannon
Long range death dealer. Strong against even the toughest of armor. However, it requires the FERAL to be completely still and braced to use with any precision over long range. Can be used while moving though accuracy is reduced.</div></div><footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/rennac-faintheart"">@Rennac Faintheart</a></footer></blockquote>

About the size of a large dog, these creatures are undergoing the slow process of (attempted) domestication, and are often bred to produce wild and intense patterns on their fur. These patterns are sometimes accented with dyes, and slews of people boasting their animals are the prettiest has lead to the creation of shows and fairs centered around the animals. Handling by inexperienced keepers is not welcome, however, as they still possess a rather rebellious (and frankly, unpredictable) nature. Maybe I should get one as a pet.' Is what it says in Book III.</div></div>
Abilities/Powers: Each Halfcanter has it's own powers and abilities, but these mostly come from the creature's parents. Lead is extremely agile for a Halfcanter and is usually very hostile. He considers the lake his territory and if he sees another Halfcanter there, he will most likely either chase it down or rip it apart. It's easy for him to climb up trees and other things thanks to his odd claws. Rather than running, he appears to 'shadow leap', which is basically the same as teleporting. Staring into his eyes creates fear or shows your worst fear inside of them. The more you stare, the worse it gets. It can easily skulk about in the shadows from it's fur, size and natural instincts. It can see perfectly fine in the dark.
Bio: It's history is unknown.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> 
Never seen for more than a split-second or out of the corner of the eye of the average person, Roland is a relatively mysterious creature even though he is a child. If one were to get a good look at him, they would see what appears to be a featureless child of around 14 with black, fur-covered skin and no visible landmarks aside from his large, red compound eyes. He has no mouth or nose, merely bumps that look similar to them from afar. His arms are longer than a normal child's, ending at around his knees in thick forearms and talon-tipped fingers on large hands. The fur on his scalp is longer than the rest of his body by about 6-7 inches and flows behind him in a windswept mane. Most peculiar is his wings, which sprout from his head, starting at his brow and sweeping back as two long, thick tendrils which connect to large, sweeping membranes that run all the way down his back and end at his heels. They make him looks more of a ray than a bird or moth.

Three months ago, Trace moved away from his hometown and to the town of Califum.

He has always been a curious kid and always wants to know more about everything, some would call him crazy for his need to figure everything out. He was never a popular kid, but he wasn't teased or look down upon either, most people just know him as the weird kid of the Lancaster's. His relationship with his parents is loving and supportive, with an undercurrent of worry.

He works part time at the library since he loves books and wants to learn the secret of the place. But he always gets lost before he could learn anything new.

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>
Calder appears to be a lanky teenager, standing at 6'4 and couldn't weight more than 110 pounds. He has very soft features, delicate and less than masculine. He has ungodly pale skin, almost like he was a corpse, but besides its color it is nearly flawless. His eyes are a very light blue, almost silver, but he has dark rings under his eyes. He has long, messy pitch black hair that hangs down to his neck. Something odd about him is that he always appears to be wet, his hair dripping water and his clothes completely soaked.

On other occasions Calder appears as a large sentient mass of water, his size depends on the where he is at the moment and the amount of available water.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>
Goes By Calder

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>
Looks like he is 17

<span class=""bb-b"">Species/Race</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Water Spirit</span>
A soul of someone who had the unfortunate fate of meeting a watery death. They embody water and its natures. Some are calm and relaxed like a babbling brook while others can be violent and rough like a raging river. They usually inhabit the body of water where they drowned, though they are capable of leaving it and finding another.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities/Powers</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Hydrokinesis</span>
Calder has the ability to control water with his will alone, being able to make it do almost anything he can imagine. Though he is not able to control it in its other forms, gas and ice.
<span class=""bb-i"">Liquification</span>
Calder is able to turn his whole body into water and remain sentient, making him basically a living wave. Though how large he is depends on how much water there is near by, with out a body of water he is just as large as a few gallons. Also in this form he is susceptible to the water cycle. Such as he can be frozen solid and not be able to do anything until he thaws out, likewise he can be evaporated with enough heat and turned into water vapor, which is less than pleasant for him, and have to wait until he is rained back down to earth.
<span class=""bb-i"">Hydrophysiology</span>
Being dead and basically made of water has some of its benefits. Such as Calder no longer has a need to sleep, eat, or breath for that matter. He can also be shot, stabbed, and even crushed without any real ill effects. Calder can breath underwater, though it doesn't count as breathing since he doesn't breath.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>
""Everyone in town knows the rumors about that river down in Brokeback Gorge dude, they call it the Broken-heart river. Apparently a few hundred years ago back when Califum was just getting started this guy was head over heels for this chick in town, like seriously into her man.

The dude took a swan dive off the cliff and into the river... <span class=""bb-b"">SPLAT!!!</span> The dude popped like a water balloon when he hit the river, no one found enough of him to bury.

She had worked all night on her newest design for a dream catcher, but it always failed to work. She hadn't got any sleep beforehand, as well. She wished to have a day in, but her stomach protested against the idea. There was also supposed to be another batch of tourists today. Grabbing her <a href=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140315191155/outlast/images/c/c2/CamC.jpeg"">video camera</a> from the desk, she exited the house. Once outside, she made her way down to 666 Bestia Lane, aiming to get to Kentucky Fried Turkey before the bus full of tourists arrived. The bus stop was opposite to the shop, luckily. Charna, while checking her camera as she walked, had stumbled over a rock and grazed her knee gently. It was gently bleeding, but the pain was all the more of a reason to get comfort turkey. So, when in the shop, she set herself up near the window and ate some turkey. As soon as the bus arrived, she started to record. ""This is group... I can't remember the number now, but it's another group of tourists. Another group of sheep following the shepherd. They never find anything and they never will. I wonder when someone will realize all of the stuff here is just fake... End of session."", she says in a whisper, loud enough so the camera picks it up but not so others can hear her. As soon as she's done, she continues to eat her turkey, examining the newcomers with mild interest. Most of the pain had now gone, as most of the bleeding had stopped on her knee.</div>"

In front of her she held a tray, suspended by a strap looped around the back of her neck that was beginning to make the muscles in her neck ache. The smell wafting from the various baked goods on the tray was almost making her lose her mind, but she had eaten enough whilst waiting here for this dang tourist bus. It was only a while ago that she was coming into the town on a bus just like this one, so she could understand how strange an experience it could b- That jam donut looks so heavenly right now, oh my goodness. She caught herself reaching into the tray  as the bus rolled up and slowed to a stop with a great, drawn-out hiss, and quickly pulled her hand away, and up to her brunette mohawk quickly before she brushed off her sleeves to make herself as presentable as possible. The bus doors opened with another drawn-out hiss and she lapsed straight into her rehearsed spiel. ""Welcome to Califum! One of the homes of the strange, unexplained and downright spooky! We at Vallance Amazin' Glazin' Eats and Treats would like to personally welcome you to the town with a free, complimentary, free, no-charge no-cash required, free, free, free selection of sampler products!"" Her voice was jubilant and chirpy as she was rocked by the crowd grabbing for all the baked goods they could hold.

She was treated herself to the collective 'mmmmmm' of the crowd as they made their appreciation known verbally. She smiled and giggled before finishing her bit. ""It seems that you all liked them so much, that I've just plum run out! Oh well, its okay. If you did want some more sometime, come on down to Vallance Amazin' Glazin' Eats And Treats! Only a couple of minutes walk from here, and we're always happy to receive your patronage! We may be new here, but we're on the rise!"" She finished with an enthusiastic hop on the spot before folding her tray up and depositing it into a backpack nearby. With a tired sigh, she picked up the skateboard next to it and leaned against the bus stop to just appreciate all of the people enjoying her family's products.</div>"

He still made sure to fly high enough that it wasn't likely that anyone would accidentally spot him though. After a few minutes he saw an opportunity for entertainment in the tour bus across the across the KFT.

Stuxxers landed about 100 foot away from the bus, and slowly made his way over using cover in the form of trashcans, benches, and hedges. Once it seemed the tourists were all distracted by something, he dashed to his target. He quickly and expertly removed the lug nuts from one of the left side back tire before removing the wheel itself. Once he was done he moved on to the front tire on the same side and repeated the process. Once he was done he quickly  flew on top of the bus where he made himself as small as possible, leaving the heavy wheels lying on the street.</div>"

Her large body would be difficult to hide. But if Lolth waited long enough, someone was bound to get involved in this strange world of supernatural. And then Lolth would take her prey. But for now, since Lolth had nothing to do, she would weave cloth. There was already piles and piles of cloth around Lolth's legs. She could always sell them but money didn't do her any good, so Lolth decided to just keep weaving her fabric until someone stumbled upon the well-made cloth.</div>"

He noticed the Girl dabbing her knee with a napkin and didn't really care he didn't know her but he noticed the bakers daughter outside and then he wondered if she had any spare bread. so he made his way towards the door albeit haphazardly since he ended up tripping on a chair stole and face planting the floor...</div>"

To some extent, it worked. She would still need to put ointment onto it later. She sighed and stood up, leaving the shop after paying and clearing away her stuff. She leaned against the wall near to the entrance of KFT, looking over the tourists and the bus once again. She hadn't payed attention much at all, partly because of sleep, so she didn't notice anything new. She noticed a couple of odd people in the crowd, one of them having a mohawk. She could of sworn she had seen that person before. She would have to look at her profiles of everyone in the town again. For now, though, she would watch. She deciced to record it, simply because she could.</div>"

Must have been a bit of a daydream or some sort of gas cloud. Like swamp gas. But were they anywhere near a swamp? Oh well. She continued to watch the people enjoying her family's treats before setting down her skateboard and stepping on the deck in preparation to head off to... somewhere. She was pretty much free for the rest of the day, as far as she knew. Her step-father had told her to come out here and advertise their goods, but she didn't end up leaving until her mother asked. He didn't run the bakery at all anyway, he just liked to tell her what to do. She clicked her tongue in disapproval as she dismissed the thought.

Her attention wasn't on her daydreams for long however, as she saw within the KFT that an employee took a short drop and a sudden stop, colliding with the floor in a rather dangerous fashion. She planted her foot firmly on her board and pushed off, looking both ways before leaving the sidewalk and rolling across the street. As she passed the bus completely, she noticed that two of the wheels had been removed entirely since the time that it had stopped. Now she knew that something was up, because it took her longer than that to remove the trucks on her board, let alone a bus wheel, LET ALONE two of the monsters. She could only shrug and look around with suspicion in her eyes, as she felt as if she saw another something just outside of her peripheral vision. She felt the need to show-boat a bit, and fulfilled her need by ripping a kickflip as she mounted the curb on the other side of the street. her stomach grumbled to remind her that she still felt a little hungry and had to ask herself, should she stop and get something to eat here?

<span class=""bb-s"">_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________</span>

Meanwhile, in the dark of the forest just outside of town, a fuzzy shape stirs in the hollow of a tree. It climbs down from its sleeping perch on long, gangly arms and stands upright, taking a quick moment to peek out of the tree with its big, red eyes. With a look left and a look right to confirm that no one was there, it nods before coming out completely. It looks to be a boy covered in fur. Almost a boy that is, except for its long ape-like arms and the kite-like wings that started at the top of its head and ended at its heels. With a small flap and a short hop, it gains altitude and latches onto another tree with its talon-tipped fingers. Making no delay, it climbs into the coverage of the branches to get a better look at the town of Califum.

What a wondrous place to be able to live. Roland almost envied the humans in that they got to live in such an interesting and shiny place. He loved the forest, but only so much and there was only so much you could do out here. As he sat in the branches, he debated taking another trip into the bustling human paradise when the dark of night fell. Maybe he just might today.</div>"

Because of the neighboring town of Gravity Falls, he knew about the supernatural events that apparently happened within the area. he didn't really listen to all of the spooky mumbo jumbo, though, as he was too busy listening to whatever was playing through his headphones. He considred taking one of those tours to get a better grasp of the town, but usually decided not to.

Feeling a rumbling in his stomach, Trace decided to wander to the KFT. There was almost nothing better than turkey that you could get all year round, and the young man found himself going there quite a lot during his time in the town. There was an interesting cast of characters in Califum, and Trace certainly didn't mind it. It was a nice change from what he was used to, and he could endure weird people if it meant not listening to his father's rants about being manly, and what little harmless things he should never do because they could ruin him for life.</div>"

In her hands were a few bundles of purple cloth. Lolth had learned to just leave the fabric in the town if there was too much in her home. So Lolth had decided that her home had gotten too cluttered with cloth and that she needed to get rid of quite a few bundles. As she approached the restaurant Lolth looked around on high alert. She didn't want to be seen. That could spell disaster.  Lolth reached around the front of the building and dropped her cloth before creeping away.</div>"

As she did so, a small shine appeared in the corner of her eye. Not having much else to do, she went over and investigated it. She payed no mind to the girl she saw before. Bending down, she realised what she had saw was some cloth. It looked high-quality, too. She quickly picked it up and stuffed it in a spare pocket for investigating investigating later. She peered around to see if there was anything else, but it didn't seem like it. Charna soon walked back to where she was before.

Lead let out a growl as he stretched, claws scraping against the large rock he was lay upon, tail trying to raise in the air. He surveyed his surroundings and huffed before jumping down and circling the lake he had claimed. No unknown scents lingered. Lead soon turned and began to feast upon the editable plant life around the area. Hopefully, no intruders would wander in today.</div>"

So against better judgment he was planning to go to the lake and try to catch some fish. If he was very lucky, he might be able to enter and leave Lead's territory unnoticed. Cause starving as he was, he would be have even less of a chance in a fight than normal.

Still on the roof of the bus, Stuxxers forced himself to be as motionless as he possible, knowing from experience that most of the humans would be looking for a fleeing creature once they discovered his handiwork. Of course he had ne intention of leaving yet, in fact he removed the wheels to create the opportunity for some real fun.</div>"

She stamped on her board and picked it up before she pushed her way into the store, looking back at the bus with a confused quirk of her brow. She could have sworn she saw something but there was nothing out of the ordinary. Aside from the removed bus wheels, that is. She could only shrug and walk into the KFT, passing by the man on the floor and the woman with the camera to walk up to the counter. The man working there greeted her and she ordered a burger meal which arrived in short order. Tina resolved to take a window seat and set her board on the floor to place her feet on. As she dug into her burger, she looked out the window into the street and the world beyond, and swore she saw a shape move between two trees. It was still hard for her to get used to the weird feeling she got from the town, but she was beginning to expect a bit of weirdness given its reputation. A dark shape swooped just outside of her peripheral vision. She bit into her burger. Must have been a bird.

Roland clung to the limb of the tree, he had moved further into the town, but he knew he shouldn't be here. He could feel the prospect of being seen slowly becoming more and more likely. Swooping out of the tree to grab the colourful piece of bread the young girl had dropped was even riskier, but he looked beforehand to check if anyone was watching it and saw that no one had noticed. None save for the little girl. She saw him in his entirety, and like the idiot he is, he waved. She returned it, but in a panic he quickly fled back into the tree-line. That was not a good idea at all. He examined the piece of colourful, sweet-smelling bread closely. It was strange and spongy, and had some sort of paper covering on its sides and bottom. Some of the multi-coloured coating was stuck to his long finger as he pulled his hand away, was this some kind of defence mechanism? It was sweet-smelling as well. How strange. With a crack of his bifurcated jaw and a whip of his tongue, he discovered that this thing tasted delicious, and began eating it in its entirety. It wasn't poison at all.</div>"

Califum, a small town to the northwest of another town called Gravity Falls. To outsiders, the two may look almost identical in the way they both have mysteries and 'never seen before!' creatures. Both towns have their own tourists who visit to see if both of these are true. But every town has it's own secrets, secrets that need to stay hidden for good. Summer break has just come around and new characters are visiting. What will happen when this group enters Califum, to discover that there's more than meets the eye to this town?

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Journals"" type=""button"">The Journals [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">This small town seems to have had its own author, who's journal writing seemed quite scruffy and hard to read, like he didn't have enough time to write carefully. As such, the books (there are 4) seem to be a sporadic mess of paper and glue. Some pages have also been torn out but for what purpose remains unknown. These journals have roman numerals on them as opposed to numbers.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Books"" type=""button"">The Books [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-u"">Book I</span>
The First book seems almost like a biography, detailing the authors exploits but it has a lack of names of any kind. The main reason why this book is of any use is the fact that it details a wide general use of everything the author studied, each one going into great depth of the subject at hand and about the failures and of what he's encountered. As such, it can be termed as the 2nd most useful of all the books he has written.

<span class=""bb-u"">Book II</span>
Book two seems entirely surprised of information about the town itself where things are located, hidden objects, abandoned places, etc. These places generally have a connection to the supernatural in some way, being either a place for ghosts to roam or a object of some value or power that if in the wrong hands,  could be disastrous. As such most of the items and clues within the 2nd book are hidden within riddles or codes as to make it as hard as possible for someone to find the objects and places where they can wreck havoc. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Book  III</span>
The 3rd book can be seen as akin to a bestiary detailing every supernatural the author has encountered through either video footage or direct encounter. The books shows information about it as well as ways kill or stop them. It also contains a very brief segment on Bill Cipher and other random information related to the creatures found in the book.

<span class=""bb-u"">Book IV</span>
The 4th book is only 3 quarters done with many of the pages being either blank or have written. It summarizes over two key subjects: The society of the Blind Eye and an entity commonly referred to as Bill Cipher. The pages here are the most untidy of the loot, looking almost like crazed scribbles, but each line is a small piece of the puzzle of the other. At the very back of the book is a small note saying <span class=""bb-i"">Forgot me, Trust no one in the town. They're watching, He's watching.</span></div></div>

Demonrise Lake is possibly the largest lake in the town, hidden deep within the nearby woods. It serves as a landfill for all types of trash and toxins. All sorts of mutated animals gather around there, most being hostile towards visitors. The surface of the lake is thick with oil and a dark green hue. The lake is isolated from other river ways, but still manages to survive in the summer. The name comes from all of the unusual animals and unidentified creatures that thrive there.

<span class=""bb-u"">Demonscatt Fell</span>
Demonscatt Fell is a lush yet barren area, having only the pretty scenery to really count for. The landscape is smooth, only having the occasional pile of rocks and rubble. This is only on the outside, however. There are tales which tell of a hidden entrance into the inside of the area, going deep underground.Some teenagers had tried once to find the entrance to only come back bruised and battered. No one knows if the tale is true or not, but there's only one way to find out. It's said at night, figures can be seen watching from the fell. This is partly how it got it's name.

<span class=""bb-u"">Nonsense Hill</span>
As it says in the name, this hill makes no sense at all. One day there could be nothing there and the next, there could be a whole forest. No one knows how or why this happens, but the things that happen at the hill only last for a day before it's replaced with something new. Strange thing is, you can only see what's atop if you're on the hill or close to it. Looking at it from a far distance shows that nothing is on there. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Brokeback Gorge</span>
Brokeback Gorge is a small valley located at the far northwest part of the town. At the bottom of the gorge is a fast moving stream which leads out of the town. Children can be seen playing around the edges of the gorge. There has been tales of a certain creature lurking at the gorge, always their but always out of sight, but it doesn't exist when you acknowledge it, so most people blame the creature's attacks on accidents...

<span class=""bb-u"">Abandoned Happy Fun Time Workshop</span>
The Abandoned Workshop is in one of the far corners of the town. It sits on top of one of the main cliffs that are around the town, over looking Brokeback Gorge. The place is filled with old abandoned toys, sweets and other various outdated items from when it still functioned. Most of the area has collapsed on itself. Rumors say the business that owned it simply just vanished and never returned. 

<span class=""bb-u"">The Old Pizzeria</span>
The Old Pizzeria is a rundown building, never used, but voices can be heard talking inside... It might have a link to the Blind Eye Society...

<span class=""bb-u"">Old Man Forest's Stump</span>
It said that sometimes (this is random chance their is no set time) there will be a old scruffy tramp sitting on that stump, locked in deep thought. You may ask him one question and he will tell you everything he knows on the subject, but in return you must tell him something new or never receive information from him again. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Pan's Woods</span>
A small segment of the woods around the town has the odd sound of music vibrating through its trees. This music is usually quiet and well contempt, being quite blissful and calm, but, if one was to say, harm one of the trees or leave litter, the music turns in a low vibration that slowly increases until something appears behind the offender. What happens next is unknown.

<span class=""bb-u"">Bob's Bakery</span>
Bob's Bakery is indeed a bakery that's owned by a man named Bob. It serves as a local snack shop, selling small cakes and cookies to having vending machines with chocolate bars in them. It also has a small section of drinks off to the side. It's one of the only stores that appears like a normal one would. At night, however, it's said to be haunted by the two old owners of the building.

<span class=""bb-u"">Kentucky Fried Turkey</span>
A shop that is generally normal in every way. It just sells really good turkey. But, it is located on 666 Bestia Lane, so that is something to note.

<span class=""bb-u"">The Town Hall</span>
The town hall is the home of the local council of the small area. They deal with the same things a normal council would deal with, but thanks to the rumors of supernatural creatures, it nearly always seems like they're hiding something. Only the members of the council know what this 'something' is, as they keep it hidden from the public. There are old rumors that the Blind Eye is linked with the Council.

<span class=""bb-u"">The Town Library</span>
The town library has books on nearly every genre and it's the only library in the town. Because of this, it's extremely large. There is a separate section for all of the archives of the town, both from the past and present. It's easy to get lost in the many rows of bookshelves. The library is extremely old and most of the time, it needs repairing.

<span class=""bb-u"">The History Museum</span>
The history museum is the second area of knowledge, but it takes the prize of being the most boring location. It shows the progressing history of the town through displays and giant textbooks, having quite expensive souvenirs to keep it running. There are a few strange displays that seem to be jumbled into the mix of history, but apart from that, nothing really stands out.

<span class=""bb-u"">666 Bestia Lane</span>
A road that oddly contains no houses, but if you start walking from the start straight to the end without diverting, something happens... but it requires certain requirements as well; it has to be the midnight hour which you start and there can be no lights on, (this is broken by the street lamps that have since been installed) plus you must have full commitment to what your doing. You can't be forced into it. 

<span class=""bb-u"">The House with the Number 0 door- WARNING: DO NOT ENTER-</span>
There is a lone house at the very edge of the town with a door number marked as 0. Looking through the window, one can see a warm blazing hearth and a old man rocking himself to sleep in a rocking chair. The old man looks normal, except for the color of his eyes, which are a dark grey. Looking into those eyes makes you compelled to step inside and join him. But once you cross the door frame &lt;the rest of the note is missing&gt;</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>Twenties 
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> M 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> You may think he's a sleepy-type guy with the way he takes his time. Or even a dirty looking fool. This is only partially correct for he is actually quite clever only playing the fool to get by unnoticed or to get the advantage of someone by making them overconfident. And his lethargy belies a deadly quick agility with his sword and hands. The truth of the matter is that not only is he laid back but he is massively lazy. Such is his laziness that he has constructed stretcher attached to the saddle of his horse to travel arriving to places by whim or where his horse ends up and rarely does he directly control it. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Due to his laziness, his vagabond nature, and the fact that he spends time being dragged around it should be no surprise that he looks dirty and his clothes are in less that sterling condition. Occasionally he does wash but that seems more of a consequence of being exposed to rain or being dragged through water. It is rumored that he can clean up quite nicely but no one has been able to verify that claim. 

Clothing wise he wears a hat that is worn but still in decent condition. A torn up long sleeve shirt worn over a ratty and equally dirty under shirt, and worn pants with some hole, and some boots that are scuffed and covered with dust and dried mud. Strangely enough he's clean shaven either due to a lack of ability to grow it or it being the only thing he invests in. Physically he has a tan from all the outdoor exposure, decent enough shape although that's threatened by him not eating regularly, piercing grey eyes and shaggy black hair. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> He was born in a loving family in a developed community. He lived free of worries until he was about 17 years old, but at that point things changed. He was supposed to pick up the family trade but he felt no interest. He just felt the whole organized plan of working hard and maybe settling down was just a hassle. 

So instead he just bummed around doing small jobs and engaging in more fun ways of making money such as doing bets and games. About the only thing he was really good in was making use of his refluxed and sword. Eventually his family just had enough of his antics and soon enough he'd find himself with his horse and traveling wherever he'd end up in.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name/Given Name</span> 

Din/Maya

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>

17

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span> 

Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>

Maya is impetuous, some might say bratty.  As the youngest of the three sisters, she's accustomed to getting what she wants.  What she can't get through playful manipulation and flaunting her beauty, she gets with force.  Of course, she usually means well and isn't extremely selfish; she simply has a tendency to believe that might makes right.  This belief has landed her in no end of trouble as she is something of a town prankster.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>

Orphaned and subsequently adopted by Rusl and Uli with her sisters, Maya grew up in Ordon as a scrappy tomboy climbing trees, and wrestling boys and Ordon goats.  She eventually outgrew that phase of her life and blossomed into a stunning beauty, taking up dance and ranching as a way to release pent up energy.  She often dances during festivals, but the boys she beat up when she was younger are too afraid too approach her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers</span>

Fire Powers - Punches and kicks with explosive properties.  Good with campfires and torches, but surprisingly weak with fire spells as she prefers to let her fists do the talking.

Fado was tending to the Ordon Goats, Sera, the older woman, was closing up shop and the children all gathered underneath the tree the three sisters, Sera, Naria, and Maya, lived. Their buoyant laughter could be heard through the area as the sun slowly descended.

Sera, the green haired child, sat in a rocking chair sewing new clothes when the laughter reached her ears. Putting on a smile, she got up and walked over to the door. Composing herself, she bust through the door and screamed at the children,

<font color=""seagreen"">""WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!""</font>

The children stopped dead in their tracks and all turned to stare at the Trio Sister, creatively named by the children. Talo was the only one brave enough to stand his ground.

<font color=""brown"">""We're playing!""</font> He answered back, his voice strong. Sera could hardly hold her smile at bay any longer as it krept onto her face.

<font color=""seagreen"">""Can I join too?""</font> She asked, grinning from ear to ear. Beth just turned her nose away, Malo didn't seem to care but Talo and Colin seemed pretty excited.

<font color=""goldenrod"">""R-Really?""</font> Colin asked, happy that Sera wanted to play with them.

<font color=""seagreen"">""Of course! What are you guys playing?""</font> Just as Sera asked, she heard the door creek behind her and looked to see which of her sisters was coming out. She hadn't really been paying attention to who was in the house who wasn't so it could really be anyone.</div>"

""Yes, thank you for all your help,"" replied Fado the goatherd.  ""Here are some rupees for your hard work...aaannd...here, take some milk home, you've earned it.""

<font color=""deeppink"">""Thanks!""</font> Maya accepted the payment with a grin.

Fado watched as she left with the bottle of milk slung over her back while waving goodbye, thinking to himself how fortunate it was that Maya had outgrown her days as a prankster and had taken up honest work.  ""How time flies,"" he thought to himself.

Maya arrived at the treehouse, seeing the town children playing.  Maya placed the milk gently on the ground before shouting, <font color=""deeppink"">""Colin!""</font><a href=""#""></a> and dashed at the young boy, coiling her arm around his neck, and driving her knuckles into the top of his head in an act of rough horseplay.  Having been adopted by Colin's father, Rusl, Maya saw Colin as a younger brother.  Because Colin was a fairly submissive child, Maya hoped that some tough love would teach him to stand up for himself as he was often pushed around by the other kids due to his passive nature.</div>"

Her blue eyes started to follow Sera as she got up and headed out of the tree house, curious what had caught her sister's attention Naria decided to follow her outside.

She couldn't help but smile watching the kids playing with each other, and giggled softly at Talo's response to her sister's question. <font color=""aqua"">""I wouldn't mind joining in either room for one more?""</font> Naria asked watching as her other sister Maya making her way towards their home and smirked seeing her giving Colin a knuckle sandwich. <font color=""aqua"">""Careful you don't want to hurt him to the point where he gets mad at you.""</font> Naria said teasingly, knowing how Colin reacted he was a sweet kid. Naria headed towards the ladder as she started climbing down it to meet with Beth and Malo.

<font color=""aqua"">""So what are you guys playing?""</font></div>"

She smiled and stayed her ground, waiting for the children to answer them.

<font color=""hotpink"">""Well... We were playing with Talo's new slingshot...""</font> Beth replied, her eyes cast away from the girls. For some reason, she didn't like the Trio Sisters quite as much as the others.

<font color=""gray"">""Yeah, the slingshot he stole from his mother...""</font> Malo added, his voice soft and low.

Sera turned to look at him her eyes wide. <font color=""seagreen"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Stole?!</span>""</font> She shouted, turning to wheel around on Talo. <font color=""seagreen"">""You <span class=""bb-i"">stole</span> it?""</font> She asked, glaring needles at him. 

The poor boy nearly shat his pants as the accusations flew at him, his cheeks turned red as he turned to look at Malo. <font color=""crimson"">""T-Tattle-tail!""</font> He shouted angrily before running off into the forest. Malo simply shrugged as Beth and Colin turned to look with wide eyes where Talo had run off to.

<font color=""hotpink"">""The sun is setting! He'll die out there!""</font> Beth called out, fear gripping her heart.

Sera sighed and looked to her sisters. <font color=""seagreen"">""Guess our work for the day isn't quite done.""</font> She spoke, shaking her head. 

As if on cue,, Rusl seemed to appear out of nowhere, his eyes scanning the area. <font color=""peachpuff"">""Where's Talo?""</font> He asked, raising a brow as he entered the area, three weapons at his back. <font color=""peachpuff"">""Anyway, I brought you all training swords since you all wanted to learn. Keep them safely locked up for now, I'll teach you how to wield them tomorrow.""</font> He told them, handing each sister a sword. He'd already taught them how to wield them some but he had much more to teach them.

<font color=""peachpuff"">""When you find Talo, tell him his mother wants to see him.""</font> He told the group before heading back out into the town. 

Sera looked to her sisters and then to the swords and walked over to pick one up. <font color=""seagreen"">""Dad's timing couldn't have been better.""</font> She exclaimed, chuckling.</div>"
21402,Champions of the Triforce,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76358-champions-of-the-triforce,['Casual'],2015-02-14 02:02:00,Stern Algorithm,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Maya let Colin go at Naria's suggestion. Maya wondered if Colin was too soft because he had three older sisters to baby him.

When Beth told them that they were playing with a slingshot, Maya perked up.  It was a dangerous weapon, and that made it awesome. Maya did also notice, not for the first time, Beth's disgruntlement, which Maya felt was aimed at herself and her sisters.  Maya could only interpret it as a sort of adolescent jealousy. Perhaps Beth liked one of the boys, but whoever that boy was might have developed a small puppy crush for Maya or one of her sisters. Well, the Trio sisters couldn't help the fact that they were pretty and graceful. Maya saw Beth's supposed jealousy as cute and non-threatening.

However when Malo mentioned that the slingshot was stolen, Maya's eyes lit up. She was about to congratulate Talo when Sera began to tell him off. <font color=""deeppink"">""Now, now, it's just a little prank...""</font> Maya began to mediate, but in a heated moment, Talo took off running into the forest.

<font color=""deeppink"">""He wouldn’t have took off if you hadn't started scolding him,""</font> Maya teased Sera, making light of the situation. When Rusl came with the practice swords, Maya said, <font color=""deeppink"">""Thanks Dad! Alright Colin, go home with Dad.""</font>

Following Sera's example by picking up a wooden sword, Maya looked at her sisters with a grin,<font color=""deeppink"">""Alright, let's do this!""</font></div>"

When Malo told them it was a slingshot that he stole from his mother she was not that shocked or surprised he was the one who seemed to get into trouble a lot.

Then Talo quickly turned around and stormed off into the woods, letting out a soft sigh she turned to Sera and Maya. <font color=""aqua"">""I guess we better go after him then.""</font> And as if right on queue their father Rusl came in, happy to see him Naria quickly ran up to him seeing that he was carrying three wooden swords. Naria smiled accepting the wooden weapon holding it gently in her hands, she started to head off towards where Talo ran off with Sera and Maya.</div>"

Sera had been told his name before but it escaped her now. Koran? Corn? Something... He spotted the three girls and began waving his arms vehemently from his seat by his fireplace.

<font color=""gray"">""Hey! Girls! If you're headed that way, I've got something you might need!""</font> He called out, still waving his arms like an idiot. 

Sera blinked and turned to look at her sisters as if to ask them, 'Think it's safe?' Shaking her head, she smiled at the two and turned to start walking in the man's direction. 

<font color=""seagreen"">""Hello! What would that be?""</font> She called out as she made her way over. The crazy curly-haired man nodded his head before turning to get something from his pouch. The trio could hear clanging noises as he shifted things around before eventually pulling something metallic out of it. <font color=""seagreen"">""A lantern?""</font> She asked, a bit incredulous.

<font color=""gray"">""Yeah, girl! It's dark and scary in there! I'll give you guys a free lantern to use! Only, I've just got the one and you'll have to buy oil from now on. But it's yours! See, the way I see it, it's a great business move. Give away free lanterns so they have to buy your oil.""</font> He explained, grinning widely at the three girls.</div>"

Her blue eyes turning to see a man with some very crazy and puffy hair with what looked like a birds nest had been built in it, she looked towards Sera slightly shrugging towards her it couldn't hurt to see what he wanted.

She stood in between her sisters looking down towards him, only having a few brief conversations with him when having been near this area of the woods. <font color=""aqua"">""Seems like a pretty good way to make a good profit.</font> Naria said looking down at the lanterns he had in his hands, she had been in the caves only once they were extremely dark and couldn't see anything. <font color=""aqua"">""I'm assuming we have to pay to get them filled now right?""</font> Naria asked crossing her arms over her chest.</div>"

Even though they were looking for a lost child, Maya was optimistic that nothing bad would happen and that everyone would be home in time for supper.

When the lantern merchant waved them over Sera wondered if it was safe, Maya shrugged. <font color=""deeppink"">""Should be fine, anyways we outnumber him and we've got our swords.""</font> Maya said, swinging her sword menacingly.  

When Coro offered to give them a free lantern, Naria asked if they would have to pay to fill it right now.  Maya slowly pushed some strands of hair behind her head and bent her knees and hips slightly, leaning in close to the flustered merchant, saying in a low voice, <font color=""deeppink"">""Hey, the free lantern comes filled, right...?""</font></div>"

Its sound told him everything was okay and as such he tilted his hat over his face and drifted asleep. The day was gorgeous and the sun was at its peak with its warm rays keeping him comfortable as he and his horse traveled through the fields. Some would savor such a picturesque day but he didn't. From what he saw out of either corner of his eyes it was one big meadow to go through for some indeterminate amount of time.

Instead he closed his eyes and let the warmth bring him to sleep as the crimson of his eyelids faded into something else. Or he would have done so if not for the sudden sensation of cold quickly hitting his exposed toes and rising up almost to his knees as well as his back. The horse had stopped in the stream to rest and drink the water. Immediately he got up to put some of the items like his sword that were on the stretcher to the horse itself so it wouldn't get damaged from the water. He too also took his fill of liquid as he filled his canteen and took the time to let the water rinse his dusty clothes seeing as he was already wet. 

Having walked along the stream which was not very deep but would have wet him lying down. He got back on the stretcher and let the sun dry him out. Sooner or later he'd be close to some civilization. As the saying goes, ""where's there water, there's people."" he set that horse to follow along the banks and he'd find someone or some place.</div>"

I wouldn't slight you like that! Just come back when you need a refill.""</font> He told them, grinning with such forced that his eyes closed shut. Sera simply nodded and took the lantern from him before turning to look at her sisters. 

<font color=""seagreen"">""I guess I'll carry it. Let's go looking for the dork, he's probably crying his eyes out by now.""</font> She told them, already walking past to head for the entrance to the depth of Faron Woods. She'd been told of the temple deep inside the forest but she'd never seen it for herself, never had a need to. Now, however, she did. Wll, granted Talo even got that far before breaking down. 

As she walked, she turned to her sisters and asked, <font color=""seagreen"">""How far do you think he made it?""</font></div>"
21409,Champions of the Triforce,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76358-champions-of-the-triforce,['Casual'],2015-02-28 14:23:00,Stern Algorithm,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><font color=""deeppink"">""Thank you so much!""</font> Maya said, giving Coro a friendly wink.

Maya let Sera carry the lantern even though she felt strangely drawn to the bright flame.  Maya realized that she had probably never been this deep in the forest and began wondering what the world beyond was like.

When Sera asked how far they think Talo might have gone, Maya decided to tease Sera a bit and said, <font color=""deeppink"">""I don't know, Sera.  He seemed pretty upset after you scolded him.  Who knows how far he might have gone in such a desperate state?  For all we know he may have made it through the woods and bolted across the field.""</font>  Of course, the possibility was highly doubtful, it was extremely unlikely that a kid Talo's age, even such an energetic kid, had the endurance to make it that far on a whim.</div>"

She took a moment to look around the forest, even though she had been in the woods numerous times. Naria always stayed far away from the bokoblins that made their homes in the Faron Woods.

<font color=""aqua"">""I don't think he could have gone that far in such a short time, though there are quiet a few deku baba's as well as bokoblins deeper inside the woods.""</font> Naria answered she looked over towards the cave that Coro had mentioned, she looked towards Sera for a moment. <font color=""aqua"">""But i'm sure we will find him soon though and we can be home and make some dinner.""</font></div>"

She turned to look at Maya, blushing with concern in her eyes. <font color=""seagreen"">""Y-You really think he made it that far?""</font> She asked, worry etched across her pale-pink face. Then, she turned, listening to Naria. <font color=""seagreen"">""Y-Yeah...""</font> She stuttered, trying to bring her courage back up.<br/><br/><font color=""seagreen"">""Yeah! He'll be fine. Besides, what trouble could he have gotten into that we can't handle?""</font> She replied happily, building her mood back from before. <font color=""seagreen"">""Let's go!""</font> She exclaimed and began marching in the direction of Ordon, NOT Faron Woods, a happy go-lucky smile on her face. <br/><br/>Sure, she was the Goddess of Courage, but Directions? Not so much.</div>"

Maya had only wanted to tease her, not actually make her cry.  Fortunately, Naria had a good head on her shoulders and knew how to reason her way out of a bad situation, while Sera never gave up.<br/><br/>But when Sera started heading off in a direction, Maya became a bit concerned; wasn't this the way back home?

The world of Hyrule is in turmoil once again, only Link is no-where to be found. His reincarnation has not been found, or may not exist. Thus, the three goddesses of the triforce are sent by Hylia to protect the people of Hyrule and fight these monsters in Link's stead. 

Basically, we will follow the plot line of Twilight Princess but instead of Link, we will have the three goddesses grown up as sisters in Ordon Village. Basically, it's a new take on Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Three Players, Four if someone is willing to not be a Goddess and tag along.
Also, if we do this one, I would want to be Farore... .-.

So, hoping to serve in Link's stead, the three goddesses, Nayru, Din, and Farore, decide to be born as humans. They are born, as Link would have been in the town of Ordon as orphans all living together where Link would have lived in his tree house. 

They are given the task of helping Rusl take supplies to Town but when you go to leave, the baddies come and take your friend, 'Ilia' (Might change this in the interest of keeping it as a sort of 'love interest.) and Colin away. The three of them race towards where they had gone but find themselves changing into something else. They are taken away and locked in the dungeon of Hyrule Castle where they meet Midna (The extra player can play Midna or some alteration of her.) who helps them, for a price. 

From then, the three goddesses follow the story line of Twilight Princess.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>:  Twenties
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>: M
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: 
You may think he's a sleepy-type guy with the way he takes his time. Or even a dirty looking fool. This is only partially correct for he is actually quite clever only playing the fool to get by unnoticed or to get the advantage of someone by making them overconfident. And his lethargy belies a deadly quick agility with his sword and hands. The truth of the matter is that not only is he laid back but he is massively lazy. Such is his laziness that he has constructed  stretcher attached to the saddle of his horse to travel arriving to places by whim or where his horse ends up and rarely does he directly control it.   

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: Due to his laziness, his vagabond nature, and the fact that he spends time being dragged around it should be no surprise that he looks dirty and his clothes are in less that sterling condition.  Occasionally he does wash but that seems more of a consequence of being exposed to rain or being dragged through water. It is rumored that he can clean up quite nicely but no one has been able to verify that claim.

Clothing wise he wears a hat that is worn but still in decent condition. A torn up long sleeve shirt worn over a ratty and equally dirty under shirt, and worn pants with some hole, and some boots that are scuffed and covered with dust and dried mud. Strangely enough he's clean shaven either due to a lack of ability to grow it or it being the only thing he invests in. Physically he has a tan from all the outdoor exposure, decent enough shape although that's threatened by him not eating regularly, piercing grey eyes and shaggy black hair.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>:  
He was born in a loving family in a developed community. He lived free of worries until he was about 17 years old, but at that point things changed. He was supposed to pick up the family trade but he felt no interest. He just felt the whole organized plan of working hard and maybe settling down was just a hassle. So instead he just bummed around doing small jobs and engaging in more fun ways of making money such as doing bets and games. About the only thing he was really good in was making use of his refluxed and sword. Eventually his family just had enough of his antics and soon enough he'd find himself with his horse and traveling wherever he'd end up in.

Powers: None

Other: I wrote him with the concept of being a foil to the sisters.</div>"

I like le spinner though I'm not sure Sera would like it. I mean, I'd be cool with any of the weapons really. I feel like the dominion rod is more Naria's style being 'Wisdom' and it's a scepter type thing.

They do each get a sword however. But the master sword will be found as one sword and then split into three for the sisters, balancing the power among them. Only together will the three swords have the power of the master sword's whole. 

They will each get a shield and the armor/clothing when it is given.

They will only get one of everything else and will have to share them items among themselves. So, say Sera gets the Gale Boomerang her being the spirit Farore, wind. But I also think that they should each get a set of iron boots so that they can travel together and not have to trade items underwater, yanno?

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 36

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Browning is a very fragile man, standing at a diminutive height of 5’4 and barely weighing above 120 pounds. His long hair is black with streaks of white. He wears a collection of suits that were once fine, but are now tattered and stained due to the conditions since his exile. Along with his clothing, he has a small bag with medical supplies.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span>

Dr. Peadar Browning was born into one of Tirna-Sorset’s upper middle class family, a family of social strivers. Peadar was taught how to read and write at an early age and soon amassed an impressive library that contained everything from plays, treatises, works of fiction, and political tracts. He had dreams of one day becoming a writer, but he was pushed by his father to practice medicine. He acquiesced to his father’s wishes, but continued to write on the side as he studied.  

Under the pseudonym of E.G. Rathais, Peadar published the best-selling adventure serial <span class=""bb-i"">The Bowrocker.</span> Further successful Rathais works followed. There was the sweeping epic <span class=""bb-i"">A Kinsman's Journey</span>, the romantic and bawdy <span class=""bb-i"">Tales of a Country Wench</span>, and the runaway successful novel <span class=""bb-i"">The Life of Callum Creag</span> that was published in several languages across the world. While the name Rathais became an international celebrity, it didn't provide much future so Dr. Peadar Browning quietly continued to practice medicine by day and write at night. 

Among his closest patients were a duke and his wife. The duke and duchess were part of a small group of nobles who were beginning to grow disenchanted with Aenda’s regency.  They invited Browning to meetings where they discussed the rights of nobility, the aristocracy, and who should rule. Motivated by these discussions, Browning wrote a series of essays under the pen name Publius, the essays were titled <span class=""bb-i"">Thoughts on Constitutional Monarchy</span>. The works called for making the royal family powerless figureheads while a governing council made up of the nobles ran the country with evenly divided power. The duke and duchess provided the seed money for publishing. The essays, published during the height of Aenda’s war with the gentry, sent shockwaves through the nation. The followup pamphlet <span class=""bb-i"">Thoughts on Self-Determination</span> was even more radical and called for a mixed government of nobles and commoners elected directly by the kingdom's land owners. After the brief civil war's end the duke and duchess were arrested by the army. Under duress they confessed that Browning was Publius. The good doctor was arrested and served six agonizing months in a dungeon before he was shoved on a ship and sent across the water to Uponhill. 

Browning was party to the hellacious first year the colony suffered. Like the rest of the town he suffered disease and starvation. As a doctor, he did what he could for those in need of his help. Those he could not help he helped bury. The first year is now over and Browning, emaciated and constantly sick due to his weak constitution, serves as just one of two doctors the town has. He helps the people of the colony where and when he can. In his free time he continues to secretly write political tracts that concern the radical ideas of self-governance hoping to one day find an audience that is ready for his ideas.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span> 38/F/Uponhill

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span> 

Gwynda Adair was born Gwynda Umbrahme, the daughter of the Erle of Tembree. Tembree was, in ancient times, an independent kingdom who's people subsisted off of fish, whale, and seal while their warriors ranged across the moors finding opposing tribes to plunder. Those harsh times came to an abrupt end long ago when the young Kingdom of Sorset invaded and swallowed the small, unpeopled moors of Tembree. This conquest had been achieved by a Sorsetii Queen named Athdara. The Warrior Queen's personality cult grew strong in this far off place, and it has remained the unofficial main religion of the Tembree people, who's provincial nature has largely kept them isolated from the cosmopolitan Ethahnic faith.

Tembree's barrow-pocked moors and climbing basalt cliffs set the stage for her early childhood. Her father was gone for much of her childhood, leading a detachment of Provincial Light Horse in the early stages of the Brugii war. This left Gwynda's education to her mother, and to the astrologers and court witches that her mother tended to favor. Gwynda was a strange child, taken to fluctuating moods that she would later relate to the spiritual world. She was imaginative, putting stock in old superstitions and falling deeply into the Athdaric cult. At fifteen, she was married off to the young Erle of Siltbruce, Riordan Adair. The Adair clan came from ancient blood, and they trace their lineage to a time so far back that legend and myth are too mingled in the history to prove them wrong. Riordan had entered public life as a cavalry officer, and by nineteen he had already been inducted into the Society of Banshees - a secret society of distinguished Cavalrymen who marked themselves by making their faces ghost-white with cakey white powder, running lines of greasepaint below their eyes to represent banshee tears, and screaming in battle. Though his induction was undoubtedly due to his social status rather than any sort of veterancy - he had only fought in one pitched battle before being brought into the society - it was still a badge of honor he wore with great pride.

Gwynda was happy in her marriage. The Adair clan only paid polite attention to the Ethahnic religion, attending more to a routine of traditional ancestor worship, and their lack of devotion allowed Gwynda to practice her particularly devout worship of Athdara. Riordan was a patient man and seemed to handle her flights of fancy well enough, and the Adair wealth allowed her to indulge these fancies with some extravagance. The couple had one son who they named Nevin, and two daughters who they named Blaire and Braithe. 

The War of Brugii Sucession had began when she was just three years old. In the early years of their marriage, Riordan had been tasked with commanding the defense of a nearby border, a job which allowed him to live on his own estates and saw him only a handful of small skirmishes. Gwynda had always lived comfortably, and she had developed an ignorance of the outside world that made her way of life seem immortal. until the third decade of the war began, eight years into their marriage and just as they discovered that Gwynda was pregnant with their second child, that Riordan's assignment was changed and rode off to war in an extended campaign at the head of a column of light dragoons. Gwynda did not doubt that he would return.

Riordan participated in the charge that saw the death of King Brandon Aeloy, though Riordan was leading flanking maneuver meant to unhinge the enemy line while the King's men charged into its center and therefore did not witness the King's death himself. In fact, it wasn't until the battle ended that he learned what had happened. Like many of the noblemen, he was nervous about the new King Ilroy's ability to rule, but the war was still there to fight. Riordan was part of a mission to ride around the enemy army while the Battle at the River Tirus took place, and he returned home after it ended.

Ilroy's death shook up the entire political world of Tirna-Sorset. The nobility saw in the rising Aenda an authoritarian who would usurp their ancient rights, and they supported the young King Michael in what ways they could. When the rebellions came, the Adairs sided with the true king against the usurper Aenda. Riordan rode to war again, and Gwynda was still absolutely sure of their safety.

Riordan joined with the other members of the Society of the Banshee, who's peculiar cult-like rites and elitist culture sided them with the anti-Aenda faction. They hired mercenaries and attempted to join-up with the other rebels. They won several skirmishes, but when faced with the professional army in a pitched battle, they were defeated. Riordan was imprisoned, taken to the capitol, and executed on the steps of the palace along with dozens of other nobles.

Gwynda's world was turned upside down. She fell into a deep depression, made worse by her fluctuating moods. She was imprisoned, along with her children, Riordan's sister Maude (who's husband had died in the early years of the Brugii War, causing her to move to the Adair lands), and Maude's children.

Though they were not executed, the decision of Aenda's judges was hardly less horrifying. Nevin, Gwynda and Riordan's eldest son, was taken to a surgeons and castrated in order to end the male line of Adair's. Their lands were taken, and they were forced to join the settlers being sent to Uponhill.

The Adair's live on a farm outside of the settlement, though they winter within the walls of Uponhill with the rest of the colonists. A winter fever killed Gwynda's sister-in-law Maude, leaving Gwynda as the matriarch of the family in exile. They are assisted on their farm with a small circle of servants and staff.

Pilsky Yakovitch.
<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Description:</span></div>
According to the ruling class of Tirna-Sorset, <a href=""https://dianespuppetsproducts.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/100_0098.jpg"">Pilsky</a> is nothing more than another rat clogging up their sewers, and at first glance that might be true. Like any other slum dweller, appearance is not one of the main things one tries to improve. Usually food and shelter are of more importance. Still, beneath the dirt and grime, one might think of Pilsky as a rather handsome man of twenty years. He's a rather short fellow, just barely topping at an average height of five feet, ten inches. Sloppy brown hair in need of a good wash, but a surprising set of hazel eyes that get all of the ladies. Not much body weight on him though. Hunger tends to do that a lot. Of course, being used to going hungry all his life gave him the better edge once winter came around. That and a hidden stash of stolen food tends to help. 
<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span></div>
When given a chance to throw it all behind him, Pilsky jumped on the chance faster than you could call Aenda a bad ruler. Who wouldn't? The benefits given to him were certainly worth it all. Free land as far as the eye could see, extremely fertile soil, and a bunch of natives who would gladly give up their women. That and a free ticket out of the prisons was a big plus. To a man who had lived all of his life in the cramped slums of the capital, throwing a chance like that away would have been suicide. 

Or a surefire way to not die of starvation and exposure to the elements. Instead of tight, cramped slums where you at least had a few feet to breath, now he had been subjected boat ride over with no bed and the only solace being that he had already thrown up his meal hours earlier. It was a helluva few weeks, that. 

Growing up in those slums, sure it was hard, but it was the only thing he knew. Mother was a whore, father was a drunkard emigrated from an country named Gornska to the East looking for work. Stealing came easy to him at least. With no craftsman or metal smith to apprentice under, all he knew was self taught or learned from a father in his few sober moments. His work consisted of shining shoes or being hired for barely anything at textiles or workshops. His only experience with anything in the water were sitting at the docks, watching the boats enter and leave the ports. That and chopping fish. 

His other job was being in a roving band of young men. Your average gang that played at being big, but never did anything than getting in scuffles and territory disputes. It was there he learned how to fight and how to use a knife. Hell, he even had a girl he liked. Pretty lass who was in a work house. Probably only liked him for his money. 

Then he made the mistake of trying to steal from the rich. A lower noble, but a noble none the less should have been a good target for his gang. It turns out well trained, well fed guards who wielded swords were more than a match for a bunch of rats with chipped daggers and thin stomachs. Turns out said noble was being rather generous, and gave them a choice. Either be locked away in the prisons or take his place on a ship sent to start a colony. 

It turned out to be pretty stupid of Pilsky to say yes. After gathering up the measly sums he had saved over the years, saying goodbye to his friends, and giving a kiss to that pretty lass, he was given a set of papers he couldn't read, thrown onto a boat, and sent off to new lands. 

Pilsky quickly realized how different it was to the slums. Having never held a hoe or a shovel, no hammer or nail, nor even owned a chicken or a goat, it was difficult. His hands bled from the blisters, his skin cracked and peeled from the sun, and his bones ached from the work. His first 'shelter' broke down within' a week. Hell, he even managed to get the effects of poison ivy down his breeches whilst doing the you know what. It wasn't a pretty sight at all. 

And while the winters back home were something, it was even worse in Uponhill. Like most, his living conditions weren't the greatest. Combining poor construction and little idea of how much fire wood needed led to a miserable and hungry season.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Description</span>: Short, wide-built middle-aged male. Wears a medium length chocolate colored beard. His hair and the beard are scraggly and thin, taking on an overall wiry unkempt appearance. Often dresses in modest blacks or darker grays and white.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background</span>: Hugh McTrenkel is a son of poor circumstance. Born thirty-nine years ago to a minor noble family he entered the living world with a silver spoon in his mouth. Though by no means of significant nobility, his family none the less were modest landowners with several farms on their grandiose estate in southern Tirna. For less than two centuries his family here were considered as earls of the southern Borshire Hills. Here, the Trenkel clan had lead their serfs in the production of hops, barley, and grapes, producing some of the most coveted ales and wines in the two united kingdoms (Though not as prestigious as Loran in their rich diversity and acclaim in their own alcohol, they were the next best thing). In some respects his father and ancestors for the past century had enjoyed an on-and-off informal title of Minister of Wines, largely being tasked in advising the king on brewing affairs; though on daily and more prominent grounds they were little more than advisers to the Court on which wine or strong drink was proper for which occasion.

Hugh was born the first son of Earl Rotham and his wife Margret. He had seven younger siblings born spattered over his youth. But being the eldest of them all the young Hugh enjoyed far better privileges and education than his siblings. He was taught to speak four varying languages from traditional Tirnish to Sorsettian, as well as Libirian and Antoinnese. His family were not well known as being warrior kings, so were as such not nearly as ancient as many other local clans. They were however diplomatic and political. And it was as such that Hugh would be practiced in his family's art, and made a worldly person in as many ways as they could.

The fortune however was short-lived. By the age of 16 Hugh was noted for having odd tastes. Attempts to encourage the young noble to marry and continue the family line were proving agonizingly difficult for his father. Young Hugh it seems would not take interest in women. Frustrated in his father's attempts he delved himself deep into books. Likewise, frustrated in Hugh his father made equally desperate and elaborate bids to discover what was wrong with his son, and how to get him to marry.

These attempts however came to a sudden, dramatic end when Hugh was discovered in bed with one of the estate's servant boys. The sordid affair sent his father into a rage. Rotham had his son arrested for sodomy, condemning him to the family dungeon.

Not wanting to have a “sissy man” lead the next generation of the dynasty, and for the shame he committed Rotham denounced him. Ultimately – by his power – turning him into a peasant over night. He was issued a ultimatum: he was to go to war as part of his father's contribution to the conflict in Bruge, or he would further denounce his ties to his family and join the congregation.

Not being a fighting man, Hugh opted without hesitation to join the clergy. On the following fortnight he was released from his father's prisons, stripped of his possessions, and sent to the priesthood.

Hugh's first year in the priesthood came mixed. Over his youth he was befriended by a local friar who contributed to his young education all the teachings and the dialects associated with Ethan, and he believed himself a stout believer in Ethahnism. As such, the education and tests were easy, but did not make it easy.

Well known in the local area for the sinful malice of his known homosexuality much of his oath taking was suffered under grueling ritual in an attempt to drive out sodomy and purify him. Often times he would become the naked center of trials by whips and fire to burn away his sexuality. At one point it was demanded he be castrated to finalize it. This proposal was horrifying, and he had no intention of staying from then on. The night before it could be done, he ran away.

Hugh spend the next few month in transit among the Tirnish counties. He had no money and no real power in his name. He was incapable of building anything, and returning home would most certainly see him forced into the army. He assumed the life of a beggar over the course of the winter, suffering through cold rains and snow until meeting with a foreign missionary.

Traveling under the name of Basuin of Arquin the missionary took pity on the transient Hugh. Identifying himself as a member of a group of monks of the “Pure Flame” approach of Ethahnism he promised to care for Hugh, in exchange he hears out his path. With nothing to lose, and all the reason to not accept, he did.

Over the course of the next several years Hugh was fed and watered by the seemingly simple and homely monk, who rejecting all worldly possession and comfort often had more gold than he needed, and passed it off in charity; of which Hugh was.

The Pure Flame, as Basuin taught Hugh was the belief that a man or woman must reject first the wealth of the physical world and place before it the wealth of the spiritual, committing to pacifism and charity to support his contemporaries. A man should proclaim themselves to a sectarian life and to share among the impoverished the wealth of the physical world so they might live comfortable to pursue a life of meditation and obedience to Ethahn. To the Pure Flame the secular was placed secondary or even tertiary to spiritual advancement. It was not to say that the secular was condemned by the followers, just that it should not be important to man's pure survival and mission to please Ethahn's spirit and to even expand the faith.

The Pure Flame as well condemned all forms of idols and depiction of Ethahn and his proponents. To do so was a distraction of man's spiritual purpose and a corruption of Ethahn's shapeless nature. To depict him in physical form was to restore the body he himself destroyed to build all the known world; and so man in the end should do the same to build more onto creation as he did.

Castration for sodomy to the sect was frowned upon as being barbaric, as it was believed to be in its homeland. Instead Basuin merely asked for Hugh's chastity, which he considered a merciful replacement. Basuin taught him that in the end, the merits of man would be judged in the afterlife, and so long as they committed whole heartily to his cause and their good deeds were measured well against his bad he was promised a kind afterlife; for Ethan's presence is in and knows all, so will understand. This running contrary to the customary belief man must be exposed to Hell in the living life to purge them of their sins before passing on, so as to shorten or free them from Hell in the afterlife.

Hugh was inspired by Basuin and took up his mantle, becoming a priest in rags. The two parted officially at the port of Doulein where the monk returned to his home, leaving Hugh to continue his mission in Tirna.

In the reign of Aenda, such ideologies as the Pure Flame were considered heretical by the staunch conservative church that Hugh had once almost been a part of. Witch hunts were organized to find the heretics and pagans that persisted the kingdoms over. The Inquistorial gangs of Aenda were poised to take out people like Hugh, and in short order he was soon discovered and captured by Aenda's inquisitors and brought to trial for heresy.

Hugh was arrested and condemned of his heretical notions just months before the mission to the New World was under taken. He was originally to serve twenty-five years in the care of a mountain monastery to be reformed, what little remained of his name saving him from the executioner's pyre. However, when the papers were put out and the ship selected, his sentenced was changed by the fates to take to the sea and travel west.

Hugh had not been on a ship for longer than a week, and the months-long voyage across the ocean was grueling and torturous for Hugh. Among the two hundred others he clung to life and his stomach on Aenda's prison ship en'route for Sorset's colonial claim to the west. Hugh did his best to bide his time by comforting himself – and those who would listen – with the mercy of Ethahn. Though his sickly attempts at preaching did not often set well with the firebrand members of the crew and would-be colonists.

His first year in Upponhill was with most a rough one. Though his life of rural poverty proceeding his arrest had certainly familiarized him with the punishment of winter he did often retreat to seek comfort in the “warming fire of Ethahn”. As winter came to an end he came out convinced more of his own faith, and filled with a hotter fire to serve it more energetically. After all, in times of freezing his presence was most thawing. And if the rest understood as such then perhaps they'd have the modesty and will to last more winters.

During the autumn preparations Hugh was introduced to the natives of this strange new land, along with the rest of the colonists. Though he did not see them as a potentially savage curiosity as many of his kin did. He instead looked down upon them as children needing to be saved, as his new faith suggested. These people were kind and gentle in his eyes, filled with the capacity of mercy that would be beneficial to all parties, if only they could be shown the light.</div>"

While Antoinne and Tirna-Sorset conquered the forests and meadows of their realms and built cities and farms upon their ruins, the people of the Six Turtles lived in communion with the natural world amongst the ancient oaks and maples. On the teeming shores of this lush and virgin land, Chiskowtay learned the art of harvesting the bounty of the woods and seas in a sustainable fashion, just as his forefathers had for countless generations before him.<br/><br/>In the the spring following his 14th winter, his tribe experienced its fateful first meeting with the white-skinned men from beyond the Sunrise Waters. A caravel flying the flag of Antoinne above its sails dropped anchor off the coast of the settlement. Three parties of white men, the first Chiskowtay and his kin had ever seen before, rowed ashore and tried to speak with the elders. Though the elders and the white men could not communicate effectively, the elders demonstrated to the foreigners that they were welcome to stay the night in their lodge. During the night, an altercation broke out between the white men and Chiskowtay's kin. In the midst of the fighting, one of the foreigners barged into Chiskowtay's hut and spirited him away. He and several other boys and girls of the village were taken aboard the rowboats with the intent of ransoming them for loot. The Antoinnese were forced to abandon their plan when the furious villagers pursued them in canoes, and so after fending the natives off with muskets and pistols, the white men retreated under moonlight to their anchored ship. The Antoinnese raised anchor and sailed off into the East that night<br/><br/>After four moons on the open sea, during which Chiskowtay was pressed into assisting the deckhands with their chores, he and his kidnapped companions arrived at the Antoinnese harbor of Tou Lumere. Chiskowtay was bewildered upon seeing the Old Country for the first time. He was perhaps even frightened by the lack of trees and the abundance of strange lodges made from planks of wood and stone blocks. The teeming population too unnerved young Chiskowtay. At any given moment, the native boy could see in the harbor city more humanity than he had ever witnessed in his entire life in the Land of Six Turtles. His desire to resist against his captors was overridden by the fear of this strange and exotic world into which he had been thrust.<br/><br/>From Tou Lumere, Chiskowtay and his fellows were taken to Antoinne's grand capital. They were taken to the Palace by the captain who had captured them and there they were presented before Antoinne's grand king. The king regarded them as ""delightful curiousities"", especially the girls, as he expressed a fondness for their tan, ruddy skin. Upon inspecting Chiskowtay, the king found him to be a ""strapping and virile specimen"" and made a passing comment that he would be a compliment to the royal army. Immediately after the presentation before the King, Chiskowtay found himself before a quartermaster for the Royal Army, who issued the native boy his tricorne, breeches, and boots. Chiskowtay gave the quartermaster a bewildered stare when the officer demanded his signiture for enlistment. When asked his name, and providing his given name, the quartermaster simply shook his head and informed the boy that he would henceforth be named 'Christophe' - a proper Antoinnese name. <br/><br/>Despite his limited grasp on the Antoinnese tongue, Christophe learned how to load and fire a musket easily enough. He and his fellow soldiers practiced running straw-stuffed dummies through with their bayonets. He learned to march in tandem with the rhythm of the drum and all the commands associated with each of the distinct blasts of the bugle. It did not take long for young Christophe to learn the ways of battle in this strange land. This was a fortunate thing for the Kingdom of Antoinne, for many soldiers were needed for the war against Tirna-Sorset. During Christophe's 15th birth-moon, his company was dispatched to for battle.<br/><br/>Christophe saw his first battle at the hamlet of Anjoux, near the border of Bruge. His company of green recruits faced off against a seasoned regiment seeking to pass through the town. Christophe and his Antoinnese compatriots loosed an ineffectual volley against the soldiers Tirna-Sorset, who held their fire until they were within 60 yards. The enemy salvo was much more effective, and the Antoinnese line broke. When the soldiers of Tirna-Sorset fell upon the routing Antoinnese, Christophe simply dropped his musket and raised his hands above his head - not out of fear, but only because his peers had all done so.<br/><br/>When an Antoinnese-speaking interpreter for the Army of Tirna-Sorset questioned Christophe, he was thought to be an idiot when he could not understand many basic sentences. Based upon his apparent lack of intellect, the Chief of Staff found no issue in impressing the boy into the Army of Tirna-Sorset. His new compatriots took to calling him Christopher - a more sensible name for a man fighting for the glory of the Two Realms.<br/><br/>During his duty in the Army of Tirna-Sorset, Christopher saw action at two of the greatest battle of the war. He fought at Rouge and watched his newly-adopted King die from his own cannon. Soon thereafter, he saw the conclusion of the conflict at the River Tirus. He joined in the celebration of his compatriots that followed soon thereafter, completely unaware of what this conflict was all about but glad to be done with the fighting nonetheless. In the years following the conclusion of the war, Christopher attempted to spend his meager earnings from the war to buy passage back to his homeland. After discovering that no ship in Tirna-Sorset made the passage across the Ocean of Aelaminus, he returned to Antoinne and tried his luck at Tou Lumere. When he could find no vessel that would travel West across the Sea, he followed the suggestions of the Antoinnese and traveled to Libiria, who the shiphands at Tou Lumere claimed had many ships that sailed across the great ocean. At the great trading port of Carana, Christopher found a Libirian ship at last that would grant him passage West to his homeland. After six long years, Christopher relished his long-overdue homecoming.<br/><br/>And so his confusion and disappointment were very great when his ship arrived at a fortress harbor built upon an island thick with palm jungle. Having spent the last of his stipend mistakenly buying passage to a miserable, mosquito-infested island, Christopher had no choice but to save enough money to return to the Old Country and devise a new way to return home. He petitioned the Marquis of the island for work soldiering for the Libirian colonial administration, making clear his prior experience in battle. The Marquis granted Christopher duty with the riding patrols that set out deep into the jungle with the intent of clearing out the indigenous savages to make way for sugar plantations. For two years, Christopher rode out into the jungles alongside the Libirians, scattering the so-called savages, a people that bore a terrible resemblance to his own people from the Land of Six Turtles. Many times Christopher wondered if he had simply traded places with the Antoinnese that had ruined his life so many years before. Suffice to say, Christopher bought passage back to Tirna-Sorset as soon as he had saved the requisite sum.<br/><br/>For the next four years, Christopher made a meager living doing odd jobs servicing outgoing and incoming ships. The foreigner from the West, with his understanding of many languages, garnered a reputation among the deckhands. On several occasions, Christopher was sought out to interpret on behalf of Antoinnese or Libirians. It was not long after King Aenda announced the drive for colonization that one Harrigen Berkswell sought Christopher's skills in interpretation for a tongue he had not used in many years: that of his birth. This eccentric merchant offered adventure and riches to Christopher and those others who possessed talents that would be of service in an ambitious business venture in the remote wilderness of the New Country; but only if they agreed to leave at once. Christopher, at last presented with the opportunity to return to his homeland could scarcely say no.<br/><br/>And so Christopher now finds himself aboard the Wensleydale, an overloaded and leaky cog bound across the Ocean of Aelaminus for the the newfound settlement of Upponhill. It is his desperate hope that he can at last reunite with the friends and kin he was stolen from so many years before. </div>"

Gwynda padded wildly through the dark with only starlight to show her the way. It was the darkest part of the night - the Hag's Hour - and her heart trembled as she thought about all of the superstitions that surrounded the lonely shadows of old-growth forests. For her, this was a spiritual experience. She could feel it in the way the cold light of distant stars crowned the branches of the trees and their vernal buds; the way those trees grew unique from each other, no root or trunk twisting in the same way as its neighbor; and the way the air kept the faintest hint of the winter chill that still threatened frost in the planting season. These things all took on a primal air and made her imagine the world when it was young and full of heroes. And it reminded her of when <span class=""bb-i"">she</span> was young.

She knew, in the nagging rational corners of her mind not yet drowned divine ecstasy, that she must have looked like a fool. Gwynda was a woman in the wisdom of her middle years, having seen thirty eight winters on this earth, but she was acting like a little girl. Auburn hair whipped around her head, no braids or buns to hold it back. She was only wearing her undergarments - a white undershirt and flappy bloomers, now all brown and green with earthly stains. Her feet were bare, and her skin -ghastly pale and freckled - was soiled by the wet springtime mud. She was darting through the forest like a child, smiling and cantering from outcrop to glade, and stopping in her tracks when she struck a particularly shadowy part of the woods, where she would creep by, staring awestruck at the brooding shadows of old oaks and moss covered cypresses. 

In those dark places, colored by the shrill song of insects and the low croaking of toads, she imagined terrible things. Banshee's screaming in haunted graveyards, Batghouls descending from a dank highland cave in search of fresh buried corpses, like the stories she heard as a child in the old world, at the home of her Father's people in Tembree. But she also imagined stranger things - the stories of the new world. She thought of savage natives dancing naked around fire pits in the deep woods, painting themselves with the blood of murdered infants. And she thought of the terrible Sea-People that explorers claimed to see in the coastal swamps, their limbs replaced with eldritch tentacles and their skin covered in terrible scales. When she was in one of her dolorous fits, she feared these things and tried to hide herself from this world, but when her Goddess was with her and her spirit was lifted into religious ecstasy, this place took on a horrible beauty. 

The religious ecstasy did not come from nowhere. It was born in her devotion to Athdara - the Goddess-Queen of Strength, Courage, and Honor. Athdara had been a living woman in the distant past. She had been the daughter of Preavic, the legendary first High King of the Sorsetii who's Kingdom became Sorset. The story of Athdara was a heroic one - she had been the only child of Preavic, and she was only fourteen when her father died and left her the crown. The Kingdom, by all rights, should have perished with its first king, but Athdara kept it thriving. She bested her warriors in feats of strength, and showed a capacity to rule that rivaled her heroic father's. Under her command, the Sorsetii expanded and conquered their neighbors, and when Athdara died, she was given a place in the center of the heavens. As in life, the Goddess Athdara had no equals. She was Athdara of the Ten Thousand Glories, the master of the heavens. 

The forests south of Uponhill hugged the Adair farm, Gwynda's home in exil. The forests grew thicker as you went further south, until they closed in around each other to form a vaulted ceiling of branches and leaves that closed off the sky in some places. Patches of wet, marshy soil came together to form a natural barrier against the sea, which they met with reeded salt marshes and unnavigable lagoons. Gwynda knew nothing of warfare, but she had been told that the harshness of this wet woodland protected the colony of Uponhill from southerly attack, and Gwynda agreed. She agreed for different reasons though. She was but one woman, and she could navigate this place with ease, but there were other things in the forest that held more power than swampy ground or dense treelines. There was an ancient power, one that drew her to it, and she had absolute faith that it would protect her and her own.

This forest held a relic, and it strummed at something deep in Gwynda's soul. She had learned the path to its place, and the place of every tree and glade and rock that lead to it. 

The forest seemed to grow thicker as she continued her late-night pilgrimage. She stopped at times, scrapping the bark from the trees and watching it dirty her fingernails. The smells in this place were the earthy scents of damp vegetation and living rot. She began to think of herself as a woodland nymph, or a faerie blessing the ground that she passed over. She almost fell entirely to her imagination, but an unnatural marking jerked her back into reality. It was a symbol carved into the jagged bark of a leaning Cyprus tree - a circle, crossed with a deep-cut V. And owl sign. She knew it immediately. Brodric, her steward, liked to hunt these woods. She knew he had belonged to the Society of Owls, one of the old martial Fraternities of Tirna-Sorset. When it was first reported to her that someone had been making odd markings in the woods near their farm, Brodric confessed. He claimed these markings to be an ""Owl sign"" and promised that they were little more that markings he made to remind himself where he brought down prey while hunting. Brodric loved to hunt, and the idea that he would mark trees to create a map of his successes was not in the least surprising. It bothered her, though, to imagine an animal being skinned and slaughtered along the path of her sacred pilgrimage. She skipped away, trying to forget about it.

She entered the clearing, where the trees parted around an outcropping of thick limestone rock jutting out from the ground like ships sinking into the earth. Moonlight cast a blue hue over the land here, and the distant granite face of Mons Aen glimmered above the treeline. She glided into a furrow below, where a slick, mossy slab of rock jutted out of the soft ground. In front of that was a small pond, and in its center was a natural pillar of speckled black granite carved with an unnatural face.

The features of the face were simple - two closed eyes, a simple nose, a mouth carved as a straight line, and the slim lines of a female face. Wild rifts in the stone squirmed like snakes along its top and gave the appearance of untamed hair. Gwynda could feel the power of the thing, and she had no doubt in her mind. This was the image of her Goddess. Athdara of the Manifold Spears. 

Gwynda fell onto her knees at the edge of the pond, squelching mud soaking through her cotton bloomers. She could hear dozens of prayers racing through her head at once. <span class=""bb-i"">Athdara who keeps us well. Athdara who mastered the sky. Be good to those who are good to you, and keep your truths so that we shall know them.</span> Gwynda's mind was inundated with memories of temples, and incense, and priests dressed in the finest fur-lined robes. She could remember her first fits of ecstasy when she was a child, and how it had lead her to boast that she could read the entire Athdaric Edda in a fortnight. She had succeeded. When her mind filled with this ecstatic energy, she could do things that scared others. It was like she had the willpower of a Goddess, but her mortality could not sustain her ecstatic fits and she always sunk into deep melancholia afterwards. Those she called her dolorous fits. They were, like the swinging of a pendulum, the two states of mind that had defined her life. She had married Riordan Adair in fit of ecstasy, which had caused her to insist on consummating their marriage three separate times their first night. She had also been in an ecstatic fit when they arrived in the new world, and she ordered the Adair Farm to be built on the far side of the river from the rest of the colony. Her spiritual excitements felt like patches on an uneven quilt that came together to tell her story despite the grey, depressed wool beneath them. She remembered her ecstatic moments vividly, and her dolorous moods almost always became vague mists in her memory. 

As she kneeled in the cold mud, a frog chanced by her. It became victim to her fancy. She grabbed it, and crushed its head in her fist. Blood and entrails oozed between her fingers, and she lifted the animal up as an offering.

""Athdara"" she crooned. It was foolish to be so loud in the wild, where the savages patrolled for victims to rape and kill, but she could hardly care. ""I renew my service to you. Keep my children well."" she felt unfinished, and scrambled for new additions to her prayer. ""Keep our town safe from the savage, and show the savage how to behave. Remember the corn!"" she thought of the horrible winter and shivered. ""Yes! Remember the Corn."" 

She dropped the mangled corpse of the sacrificial frog into Athdara's alter pond. ""I am yours, Goddess!"" she pulled open the buttons of her undershirt and bared the center of her freckled chest as if her present her heart for sacrifice. She beat on her sternum like a drum. ""I will serve you in this new land! I will do whatever you wish me to!""

---

By the next day, Gwynda's night-time pilgrimage had passed into memory. She stood in the warm spring sun, a neatly kept patterned turquoise tea gown covering her entirety from neck to ankle. Her hair, far from the wild mess that had followed her through the woods the night before, was done in twin braids that twisted back and forth to form a symmetrical bun with two ends hanging from its center. 

The Adair farm was a tamed meadow in the middle of the marshy southern woodlands. It was ringed with a waist-high stockade wall, the wall's logs whittled to points as sharp as spears. Most of the property was tilled earth, neighbored by smaller gardens, animal pens, simple outbuildings, and rows of log cabins for their attendants. The farmhouse dominated at the center of the property. It consisted of two floors, with raw, unpainted clapboard siding and small glassless shuttered windows. A river stone chimney rose from one side. Gwynda fiercely desired glass windows, and the lively painted walls that she had known in the old world. She wanted to see intricate scroll-work, and walkways lined with marble balustrades, and flower-gardens dotted with fountains, and shrines, and those deftly sculpted small statues that perfected any garden. This place was far from all of that. Her new home in exile was plain. It's grounds smelled of cow shit instead of roses, and the well-dressed maids and butlers had been replaced by sweaty farmers and their rag-clad children.

They were looking out across the fields, where the farmers were tending plowed ridges of fetid black-green mud. Insects fizzed endlessly in the trees beyond, and their timbre became the base for dozens of other sounds. There were the caws of nearby crows resting in the bare, twisted treetops overlooking the farm. On occasion the chatter of squirrels, or the shrill goatish bleet of the tiny bog deer overcame the dull human sounds that filled day to day life. During the day, these natural noises easy to forget about, but at night they could be overwhelming. The bugs were their loudest at sunset. At that time, you couldn't hear somebody talk unless they were nearby. After sunset, when she was trying to sleep, their droning was joined by the croaking song of toads. Sometimes, it kept her awake until passed midnight, or even until the Hag's Hour.

They had been working desperately to make certain a good crop of corn came up from the ground, memories of the hungry winter still fresh in their minds, and all of the Adair Farm's attendants were spending time working in the muck. There work was amounting to little. They had emptied latrines and chamberpots into the field, spreading it as equally and carefully as they could. The stench of that had been near unbearable. As Gwynda watched them working, she could see the mud caking onto their bare feet. It made her feel ill to think about.

""The Savages plant their corn with fish."" Oifa said. She was the matron of the Adair servants. Old age was coming upon her, and she was in her early fifties by now. Her years had caused her skin to go loose, and her breasts were beginning to sway when she moved. She was of peasant stock, brought into the household after a plague of Pockmouth killed her mother and sent her father to asylum after his mind had been boiled by fever. This had happened long before Gwynda married into the Adair line, and Oifa had been as much a part of the clan its estates had been.

""With fish."" Gwynda scoffed. She held a sea-green sachet to her nose. It smelled like rosewater and anise. The scent soothed her, and made her forget about the awful thought of a field filled with moist, rotting fish.

""Mistress scoffs, but it is true."" Oifa went on. ""I've never been one to set a lot on foreign superstition, but those savages do know these parts, and we have hardly a sprout to show for our time.""

""It is early yet."" Gwynda insisted. ""How silly would it be for us to buy a barrel of fish to plant in the ground? I don't want to worry about that right now. But I do have other thoughts.""

""Other thoughts."" Oifa repeated. She gave Gwynda a suspicious look. Oifa knew about the spiritual ecstasy that had sent her mistress into the dangerous wild at night. Gwynda suspected that Oifa knew more about her pilgrimage that she let on. She had been confronted that morning by the green-eyed matron, who brought a pair of stained bloomers as evidence. ""What in the name of Billy Blind have you been doing?"" she had scolded. Gwynda had lied. ""I went out last night to check on the corn. I was worried a frost was on."" Oifa hadn't questioned her further than that, only babbling about how difficult grass stains were to rub out. But for the rest of the day, Gwynda couldn't help but see knowing in the aged servant's eyes. 

""I want to double our crop of bloodcorn."" Gwynda ordered. ""Set up trellises nearer to the ditches.""

""Bloodcorn."" Oifa grumped. Whatever she knew about what her mistress had been doing that night, Gwynda knew that the aged matron was aware of the ideas her spiritual ecstasies gave her, and she was always skeptical of those ideas. ""Bloodcorn is a waste of time, and mistress knows that. We shouldn't be putting hours on those fruits.""

Gwynda knew what Oifa meant. Bloodcorn was a hard plant to grow, but it was one of the few things about the new world that she liked. Though it had a menacing name, the fruit itself was a pleasure. It grew on vines, and when it came to maturation it looked like a cob of corn swollen with blood. A mature bloodcorn was thick, shaped more like a gourd or a squash than corn. When it took on a juicy crimson color, and began to shimmer wetly in the sunlight, then it was ripe enough to eat. The kernels burst with an acidic juice that stained the teeth red, and it left behind a spicy aftertaste that reminded one faintly of peppers. When they first arrived, they had traded with the savages for a few bloodcorn fruits, and someone had baked a cake out of them to celebrate their new home. That cake had been the best thing Gwynda had ever tasted.

The problem with Bloodcorn was a simple one - it was hard to tend, as servants had to prune and tease a vine up its trellis. Worse then that, one vine rarely produced more than two fruits in a year. They were a stubborn, indolent crop that some people thought to be native to some other land rather than this one. But Gwynda was persistent, and her spiritual ecstasy pulsed through her head like thirsty tendril, driving her to obsess on the issue.

""I would have a few bloodfruits for the harvest festival this year. The servants are not so taxed that they cannot watch a few rare fruits, now are they?"" she sniffed, taking in satchet's scents. She hoped that would be the end if it, so she changed the subject. ""Where is Brodric? I would like to speak with him.""

""Brodric is out hunting."" Oifa replied. ""He went out this morning, before the sun had time to rise.""

<span class=""bb-i"">Hunting.</span> She questioned why she kept him on as steward. He did well enough at his job, but it seemed as if he spent too much time on his own affairs. He hunted, and visited nearby savages to trade. When he was at home, he read well into the night, and when he went to town he spent his time trading books and pamphlets, and chatting with educated men like the radical Doctor Browning. When he found time for balancing their books or attending to their stores she did not know.

<span class=""bb-i"">An Owl</span>, she thought. <span class=""bb-i"">Who can trust those?</span>

She looked up at the sun, and an old youthful worry crept up on her like a wraith from a long-dead life. <span class=""bb-i"">That sun will do horrors to my skin. I should get indoors.</span> Life on the edge of the world was guaranteed to sap at a person's vitality, but the she still dreaded the red, painful skin that a sun-scorching would promise her. <span class=""bb-i"">Summer will be here sooner than I like</span>. 

""I hope you have this work... in order, Oifa?"" she said allowed. ""I will be retiring to the house now.""</div>"

After a month or two travelling on the dreadful cramped space, he would've been glad to never see a ship ever again. Of course, he also said the same thing about the hard labor that came with construction. 

So after several monumental failures with his place of living, Pilsky decided to say 'fuck it all'. After a bit of sleuthing around, he had managed to find an abandoned caravel worthy of his presence. Sure, it needed a lot of work. Boards had been torn off for building material, the sails ripped apart for cloth, hell, even the rats had decided to abandon ship when all the supplies had been scavenged for, not even leaving a speck of grain or hard tack to munch on. 

Even so, it was worth the effort required to get it back into commission. The captain of the ship had left behind a spacey little cabin for Pilsky to occupy, and it had a nice port in the back that gave a <span class=""bb-b"">beautiful</span> view of the bay. He had also managed to install what could be called a furnace if he had any skill about him. It worked, but barely. Already there had been at least four fire scares that had awoken Pilsky in his sleep, coughing violently from the smoke that billowed about in the confines of the cabin.

It was better than nothing, he supposed. The thick hull kept out most of the cold and the inward winds from the sea, and his pitiful excuse of a heater did the rest. He scoffed whenever he landed on the shore and saw the inhabitants hastily constructed cabins. Pilsky was surprised he was the only one who had thought to live on the water. Though, he did keep it out of sight from the town of Uponhill. Hidden behind a hill on the other side of the entrance to their bay, it kept a good deal of secrecy to his castle on water. 

The trip guiding the boat out to where it anchors now was hell. Pilsky's subpar naval skills sure didn't help, and the lack of sails forced him to stealing bits of cloth wherever he could now and then. Eventually, after a week or two of stitching he had enough to move the boat. Progress only came when Ethahn decided to grace his presence with gusts of wind. Those who knew of his plight thought we was mad, but Pilsky had proved them all wrong. It was a great alternative to destroying his hands lugging around lumber and trying to build a homestead. 

He had been surprised how quickly he took to life on the sea. His experience in the vertical streets of his home contributed to the also vertical life of a ship. Now, he could climb the rats nest in a minute flat. He often retreated there before it became too cold to do so. The open expanse of the sky was welcoming, and the salty air reminded him of his home near the docks. Less fish, of course.

Another thing that came quickly to him was fishing. During his early months in the colony, he had managed to 'come across' a few rods and nets. Without them, he would've definitely starved. At first, the nets never caught anything, and the fish avoided his rod. Experience came quickly, and the painful and annoying task of undoing any tie ups in the net became a lot easier. The small rowboat that had came with the caravel was his favorite mode of travel. Every morning, if it wasn't too damn cold, he rowed out into the center of the bay to cast his rod and bring up some good ones. Usually it was trout that swam down up Miller's creak. Shad wasn't too bad either. He had even grown to appreciate even the perches and roaches that hogged up his line.

Hell, he even sacrificed some of his catches to Ethahn. Pilsky wasn't much of a worshiper, and he somehow doubted that Ethahn was a god of fish, but it just felt right. He was sure the Gods appreciated it, whoever they were. 

At this current time, Pilsky found himself cramped up inside of his own cabin, installing what should have been a shelf, but was only half of a log, nailed in haphazardly. The spring air felt good, sure. The warmth even forced him to not use his heater, but the air itself was intoxicating. His constant time on the ship had given him something worse than he had faced going down to this land. 

Land-sickness, he called it. Pilsky had grown used to the rocking and swaying of the boat, so for him it was incredibly sickening to be on land for more than a few minutes. It was another thing he cursed the winter for. Being cooped up in his little home forced him to stay off land, and in doing so had doomed him to copious amounts of retching and headaches whenever he needed to go ashore. 

And since spring was just starting, he <span class=""bb-i"">needed</span> to go ashore. Even with his lack of wisdom, he knew he wasn't gonna make it another winter through eating fish alone. He had what, maybe half a sack of grain left? A few dried tomatoes? A single carrot he had been saving for a rainy day? Now came the prospect of learning how to farm. He had some tools, but not the knowledge about them. Most of the people in this damn colony came from farming families, so they knew exactly what to do to eke out a living. But him? He hadn't even been beyond his home city. 

Pilsky sighed as he applied the finishing touches to his 'shelf'. As he transferred a few baubles, mostly strange shells and rocks he had found on the beach to the shelf, he looked outside, wondering if perhaps diving for pearls could be a good option. Hell, he doubted even the wives in town would barter for such a trivial thing. Those natives, with their rumors of baby-murdering and ritualistic orgies, maybe. 

He stepped out onto the salty air of his deck, noting that he would need to scrub again. Things got dirty fast on a ship, and without a constant cleaning, the boards would start to rot and go bad. He stepped over the poop deck, noting the sunshine that filled the air. Today would be the day he went into town. He couldn't say what he was looking for, maybe the loneliness was finally getting to him, maybe he just wanted to steal something. 

All he knew is that he would have to kill those damn birds who kept shitting on his boat.</div>"
21461,Colonial,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76362-colonial,['Advanced'],2015-02-17 18:42:00,Dinh AaronMk,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">There was a freshness in the air. A cool collective nature in it. It came through the open windows, driving out the bitterness of winter where ever it went. All corners had to swept clean of the coldness of the snow and the frost. Rejuvenating life to come again and to bring in a wiser year.

With the grueling torture of the winter season over, there was much to do. Upponhill must look in at itself and know what needed to be done to prevent another season of suffering. It must seek allies in the outwards world. The natives of this land may not be so kind again. But Hugh knew he needed to make sure they would continue the compassion. For the salvation from death that they had given them, he will trade them salvation in the afterlife. There was no greater cruelty than ignorance. And as softly as they had to come he would go to them, like an old friend.

But for now, the exiled monk had immediate work to do. He could not do more than think ahead to what he had to accomplish over the spring thaw and into the summer sun. And what needed to be done by Autumn. Not just for himself, but for everyone. For Upponhill, and for the family he roomed with.

Hugh had no tools or skills of his own to build. His trade was the spoken and written word. He was of little actual use in the ways of establishing the rough colony. But he had looked to try to learn in as short a time as there was. His quest to aid the colony was assisted by the family he roomed with in their small cabin in the center of town. It was strategic, just across the narrow dirt track roads that wound through Upponhill stood the modest chapel the townsfolk built. It was Hugh's house of worship and practice, as well as everyone else's.

They were a busy country family, cast out of their home because they were by all accounts Antoinnese. Their relation to Tirna's former enemy being of too much concern to its new king. In the collective suffering of the rest they united with their foreign neighbors and invited one into their home. The patriarch of the family was a carpenter in the height of his mid years, still strong but wisened. His wife a homely girl, several years over half his age. The two already had children, twins.

Neither them or their children were home this afternoon. The father left to do work elsewhere in the village. Over the winter a quickly built had collapsed under the weight of the snow. One person had died, Hugh had administered her last rights. The other - the husband - had survived with broken bones and sorrow in his breast.

Hugh's broom glided along the floor as he swept. Brushing the winter's dust to the center of the room. Working for something or someone felt right to him. Winter was rough in more than the physical sense. It was rough in the psychological and spiritual being. He had found shelter in his God and he thanked him for that. But to not continue to act, or serve charitably in any way bothered him. It gnawed deep at his bones and made him restless. But now in the spring cleaning, it gave him a sense of purpose. Something to do. To sweep, to clean, to earn his place under this roof.

The spring cleaning had more value in it than to simply feel he was earning his rights under the couple's roof. It helped to bring spiritual peace and balance. Long had it been taught from the distant east to the near west that a clean house was a good house. It brought fortune and bolstered one's endeavors. It showed the forces of heaven and the Providence of Ethahn that they were observant, diligent, and careful. To him, it was another small step to the quest of purity by making something pure. More so it was for someone else over him; this home was not his, after all.

Hugh's kindness helped the couple who were his landlords better use their time. The wife could go forth and assist other wives in the gardens. The husband could ply his trade for the benefit of the men. And the twins could play about the colony and be children, for as long as they had it. And while Hugh cleaned he could meditate. The timely and practiced sweeps of the wicker broom being one monotonous pass over the plane of the physical world. Life was like a house, it must be kept swept and cleaned. Cleared of excess to be filled with holiness. The idolatry of pagan pollution, like the season of tracked dust and ash and the detritus that naturally fell from one's body must be removed. And at any point possible it should be cleaned from one's life.

This was the belief Hugh felt as he went about the task. Moving the simple furniture strung together by notches and swatches of rope and bark twine.

Piles of dirt, ash, and sawdust now sat piled in the center of the room. Hugh leaned back, satisfied at his work. Once again the wood shone bare and clean as it had when the home was built. And now he had only to remove it.

“M' child, you do great work.” he said to himself, smiling wide. The sight of a task – or ritual – well executed was a sign of relief. He walked to the back door, throwing open the wooden latch and pushing it aside. It groaned heavily on its hinges, like grinding bones.

The disposal of dust as well as the spiritual disposal of the unwanted was a surgical affair. He could not be burned out, as the contemporaries in Tirna-Sorset believed. Burning it would only leave behind the ugly residue of a fire. And grinding and pounding it would only leave it caked and stubbornly ground into the stone and wood work. You may scatter much of it, but in the cracks it would remain, packed to the consistency of stone as a whole. And it would be a blemish of creation.

When throwing it out, it must not go to anyone else. One's sins mustn't be passed to another man, it would only continue the cycle. As such, one's dust must not be case into the street, it only passed one's issues on. Instead, it must go out the back, where it will keep everything clean.

With a heft kick from the broom Hugh cast out into the spring-time sun a cloud of dust. The thick rolling plume rolled about itself as it was caught by the calm easterly wind, gently pushing it away and along the house's side. The air was fresh, and smelled sweetly of the sea. The sounds of birds was strong and beautiful. It was natural song, Ethahn's song.

Again the priest swept out the door more dust, cleaning it out the backdoor and into the sandy space of the master's work yard. Here outside the house the discolored dirt lay down among the sawdust of his trade.

Watching it go Hugh could not help but feel that these people he was with – his new kin – were the dust and the ash of Tirna-Sorset to dismiss. The propaganda aligned scarily to doctrine and tradition. They were not burned, they were not exiled to Antoinne, and they were not repressed into the Earth. They were not a stain, a blemish, or a ashed scar. They would not become a host set on returning home by armed force, or a regiment to bolster the ranks of Aenda's enemies with anger lit in their eyes.

They were thrown to the backyard of the his new Empire. Into the new world. The idea caused Hugh to shudder and an unnatural cold shock slithered down his spine.

“Never you mind, Hugh m' child.” he whispered dismissively, wrapping his arms around himself.

There was work to do still. Sweeping for the spring was not the only practice in this lengthy ritual.</div>"

He looked down at the greenish phlegm tinged with yellow chunks and wrinkled his brow. At least there was no longer any blood in it, he thought with an acute awareness of how sadly thoughts like that passed as optimism these days.  Peadar tossed the rag off to the side of his work table and stood up from the desk on shaky legs. 

He had never had what could be considered a strong constitution, but here in Uponhill he was constantly on death’s door. Fever and chills one week, bowel emptying shits the next, then consumption a week after that. It was a bit of a running joke in the community that while Peadar Browning was a fair doctor, he was a piss poor patient.

“Physician, heal thyself,” he mumbled under his breath while he shuffled through the cabin. 

Medicine was never his calling. His father was a doctor and pushed him into the field. Peadar, never one to make a fuss, followed his father’s wishes and passed his studies with ease. In the realm of academia everything came easy to him, especially words. The sculpting of words was his true trade, something nobody here on Uponhill knew. Plenty of them had read the <span class=""bb-i"">Bowrocke</span>r, he had once spotted some of the boys sneaking off into the woods with<span class=""bb-i"">Tales of a Country Wench</span>, and old man Miller had a copy of <span class=""bb-i"">A Kinsman’s Journey</span> in the small library he had managed to cultivate in his time here. Yes there were many E.G. Rathais fans in the colony, but they had no idea the author and the sickly doctor were one and the same. The same thing went for Publius, the dashing radical of the all too brief civil war. 

That name, Publius, was forbidden from being mentioned or written in TIrna-Sorset and the lands under its domain. Peadar stared into the cracked and stained mirror above his dresser while thoughts turned to the night before his exile. Aenda, with all his noble and benevolent grace, had decided not to execute the good doctor after letting him languish in a dungeon for six months. Instead, guards forced him to the keep’s courtyard and placed him on a wooden stool. They held him in place, forced his eyes open when it became unbearable to watch and he had to close them, and made him watch as they took every single political pamphlet he had written as Publius, and it looked to be all of them from his vantage and burned them all in a great heap while they danced around the fire like he had seen the savages here do. They hadn’t killed him but they had killed his ideas. He was so close to the fire, the heat had dried his eyes out and made him unable to form tears even as he wept harder than he had his entire life.

“Doctor Browning.”

A voice at his door, followed by the pounding of fists on wood snapped him out of his daze. He opened the door and found young Blaine, the son of a smith. Even though he was a boy of twelve, he was already a hand taller than Peadar and a good two stones heavier.

“It’s my papa. There’s been an accident, he’s hurt.”

All thoughts of self-pity and sadness disappeared. While Peadar did not consider himself a doctor first, but he had taken an oath to heal those in need. Regardless of his lot in life, he had a duty. 

“Take me to him, son.”</div>"

Nevin sat where he always sat. He spent most of the time in his rocking chair, so much that the caned seat had molded to the shape of his buttocks. His room had the air of a place that was well occupied. It smelled like dust, and sweat, and piss - though the piss could not be helped. After he was cut, his bladder lost its resiliency. The quilts on his bed were draped over the side, failing to touch the floor only because several stacks of books on the ground managed to prop them up like tent canvas resting on poles. A stained blanket was draped over his legs. A small table stood next to him, where he kept an inkwell, quill, and a half-melted candle. 

He held a wooden plate of food in his lap. He took his dinner in his room most of the time, preferring the comfort and solitude of his own company. It wasn't much - a dried heal of cornbread, a slop of fish chowder, and a brace of pickled sausages from the old world to supplement the bland New World fare. Ships came in from the old world occasionally, delivering supplies that the colony could not produce and new souls to live in exile with them. The Usurper King expected goods in return, but all Uponhill had been able to give him were a few tons of clapboard.

The food did not taste like much. He ate it lethargically, half consumed by philosophical ponderings, and the memories of a happy childhood he still pined for. Life had not been good to Nevin Adair, and memories were sometimes his best refuge.

His self-imposed exile from the world had began to wear on him, and at nineteen his body had atrophied. He was thin, his flesh flabby with baby fat. His face was long and jowled, his copper-colored hair was a stringy mess, and he wore the wisp of a mustache that he managed to grow despite what had been done to him. 

After dinner, he spent the remainder of the afternoon watching the sunset over the farm. He could see the rough wooden spire of the newly built Ethahnist temple poking over the treeline. That was where Uponhill was, only a few miles away. They had spent the winter there, and he had hated it. Their apartments had been cramped and smokey, and the illness that burned through the new colony had worsened their misery. It had hit his Aunt Maude the worst. She had been in the room next door, a violent cough torturing her and she weakened and worsened. Hearing her cough all night and day had worn at his nerves. They knew she wasn't go to make it when that cough cave way to slow, rasping rattle. He could still remember that sound, and the dread it had instilled in him. She went silent, and then she died.

No more than the temple spires could be seen from the Adair farm though. From his window, the rest of civilization was the small farm framed by miles of tree-thick wetland. What he preferred to watch was the farm itself, and the people who lived on it. The late afternoon was when all the work was done for the day, and everybody settled into doing what they enjoyed doing. He watched his cousin Desmond leave the farm. He would walk to Uponhill, where he would drink and tell war stories as he liked to do. He watched his sister Braithe, five years younger than he was, teasing the farm-boys she always consorted with. She had always enjoyed the company of boys over girls, even when she was a child, but adolescence had came with new games. She liked to brag that she was better with a musket then most of her friends, though her mother never let her hunt so she only practiced on targets painted on trees. She also drank with the boys, and shared crude jokes. 

She liked to play another game, one that only a few knew of and kept secret for her sake. When it got closer to dark, and their mother retired for the evening, she would take a boy far enough into the woods that they were out of eyesight, and they would play dice for forfeits. The winner was rewarded with the right to leave the way they came, and the loser lost their clothes. At least, that was the way it was in theory. Nevin only knew because he had heard rumors, and because he was often awake to hear the loser return. It had always been the boys - running nervous, trying not to be seen, and searching for the place she had hidden their clothes. Always behind the woodshed. Nevin supposed that, when his sister did manage to lose, she must have been allowed to dress before she returned. How would it have looked, after all, if the daughter of the Gwynda Adair came rushing out of the woods, naked and bedraggled, after people had seen her walking into those same woods with a farm boy? Maybe she would receive a tongue lashing, but what sort of punishment would the boy get? She had that unfair advantage, and it seemed she didn't mind using it.

The others settled into their same routines. They started bonfires, and opened clay jugs of corn whiskey, which they mixed with water to make their little supply last. They talked, and told stories, and laughed. If their meager drink had any effect, they might dance or sing. And Nevin would sit in his room, staring out the window and watching. He didn't mind too much. This was the way things had to be, and he knew how to keep himself occupied. The thinking arts were his game now.

It was at this time that he truly appreciated to new world. During the day, their new home brought them illness, meager rations of tasteless food, and a general lack of everything. At twilight though, when the sun was dipping past the horizon, he felt as if he was peaking into the utopian days of the legendary past. The air became chilly and wet. It smelled of smoke, and trees and mud. The forests became dark and shadowed, but the western half of the sky lit up as if it were on fire. It glowed red and orange, fading into pink, before flagging its decent with bruised purple. When the sun had disappeared entirely, the stars came out to dominate their cosmos. The stars! Nevin had not known so many stars existed until they were out to sea. At home, everything was lit up with gas lamps, so much that their light dampened the stars. Out here though, in the frontier wilderness, there was nothing to hide the starlight. 

Sometimes, Nevin thought about rejoining the outside world. He had tried before, but those times had only left him bitter. He had, in some ways, lost his life the day they stole him from his prison cell and announced his sentence in that dank prison infirmary room as the surgeon prepared his scalpels. The horror he had felt in that moment had been strong enough that he could still feel its echoes when thought back to those days. It had been a feeling of arriving at the gate of infernal hell preparing for your eternity. It had frozen him, and when they began to cut, he had lost consciousness.

Those dark days after his father's execution had been nothing but terror. Nevin had been lucky in some ways. He had been allowed to keep his life. Even in being cut, he hadn't suffered the worst. The first few punitive castrations had been conducted out in the open, on the steps of the National Palace where the executions were taking place. Several had been done this way, until a nine year old boy bled to death from his wounds. That must have been too much for the loyalists, and they decided to move the maiming of innocents to the hidden recesses of dungeon infirmities. 

Infection had followed. He nearly died, suffering first in the dungeon cells and then in the cabin of the ship that would deliver them to their new home. His sickness kept him from laboring in the construction of the colony, and when they moved to the farm his mother insisted he avoid work. 

That did not mean avoid everything, though. That detail was his addition.

People looked at him like a victim now. He was a cripple, of course. A cripple of the worst kind. And when he tried to forget it, or when he thought that he might be able to overcome the pity of others, his bladder would give out and his breeches would soak with his own stinking water, and the pity and shame came flooding back. Solitude was easier, and he had his books and his thoughts to keep him company. 

Fretting about old wounds was an easy way to lose a night. He pulled a match from the silver tray on his table, struck it, and lit the candle. It was time to read.

His reading this week was the Codes of Breno. Breno the Assizer had been the third King of the Wensee Dynasty that ruled Tirnu before they absorbed Sorset. Breno had spent his reign in a political the strong-minded Cal's of the hinterlands over the right of the crown to pass laws that would effect the entire realm. It had been tradition until that time for local Cal's pass their own laws, their loyalty to be shown by tribute and arms rather than jurisprudence.

Breno succeeded, and his unified Codes of Law had been a tool in that victory. It was ponderous reading. The details it covered included nearly every imaginable scenario. If a farmer seeks recompense from another farmer who's cattle has damaged his crops, an Assizer would assess the worth of the damaged crop and offending farmer would be required to repay that amount in product by the end of harvest, whether that be in milk, cheese, beef, or living animal. If a man was caught sodomizing an animal, he was required to pay the worth of the unclean animal to its owner. The animal would then be hogtied and tossed into a lake or river, while the man who had sullied it would be flogged in public. Theft was nearly always punished by hanging, as was murder, but maiming was to be responded to with maiming. And not, like with most cultures, with the criminal receiving the same wound as the man he maimed. In Tirnu law, the victim chose what his assailant lost.

There was a knock on the door. It seemed late for that, and he looked out his window to make sure that it was as late as he thought it was. The sun had set a long time ago, and the farm was covered in pitch black. The song of toads and insects had long taken the place of the people, who had all went to bed.

""Yes?"" he said timidly. He marked his place with a ribbon and delicately closed his book.

""It is Brodric."" a voice answered. Of course. The Steward was his own man, and he hardly kept normal hours.

""Come in."" Nevin replied.

Brodric was the type of person who had been born to live on the frontier. In his late forties, his age was only shown by the pepper of white in his mousy brown hair. He had a bushy chinstrap beard, uncut hair sticking out under his hat, and simple buckskin clothes. His hat was made from the pelt of one of the tiny deer that lived in the bogs of the New World. It was grey-brown fur, trimmed to fit his head. The thin, rough strips of pelt that had been the animals legs were crossed and pinned to the front and back of the hat. For Brodric, the pins that held these legs in place were in the shape of brass owls.

""I was unsure if you would be asleep."" Brodric said. He spoke quietly. He already had a soft, deep voice, so that when he whispered it was almost impossible to hear him. 

""I don't sleep that well."" Nevin replied. ""Or early. My mother was looking for you earlier. She thought that I might know where you had gone.""

Brodric smiled. ""I was hunting. Brought down five pheasant, went in to town to trade three of them."" he said. ""I think that, by now, she can do for a while without my advice.""

""She doesn't like what she doesn't control."" Nevin replied. 

Brodric nodded. He began to recite. ""There are that we command upon. Most of all, there are that upon we are restrained. Wisdom is knowing and abiding by these laws."" It had not been a question, but Brodric looked at Nevin for an answer.

""Clevacus"" Nevin replied. ""His third address to the philosophers in Croton."" Crotonese history was one of his favorites. Croton had been an ancient city state on a swampy peninsula in the southern part of what was now Antoinne. Their borders had never grown far beyond their city, but their vast trade network and the advances they had made in mathematics and rhetoric had made a mark history that could not be forgotten. Clevacus, Publius, Porfavorica, all sat on the pantheon of the world's intellectual heroes.

""Very good."" Brodric nodded. ""The works of ancient Croton are becoming rare now that Aenda's lackeys think they are subversive. Republicans and Plutocrats scare them, I am afraid. However..."" he reached into his coat and pulled out a book. ""I was able to get you this.""

Nevin's fingers looked like translucent spider legs as he grasped the book. ""Wude's Collected Histories of the Folkmoot."" he said. ""This is a rare tome. You bought this in <span class=""bb-i"">Uponhill</span>?""

""You would be surprised what exists in the New World. A lot of embarrassed intellectuals have ended up here."" Brodric replied. ""I have my own copy, as it happens to be. This one is yours.""

""Thank you."" Nevin said. ""Thank you much.""

Wude was said to be the first true historian, compiling his work nearly one thousand years ago, collecting every small detail he could find about the open-air style of government that had been so common in ancient times. What he had ended with was a book detailing every meeting he had attended, every interview he conducted with the officers of those meetings, and the minutes of those who had taken the habit of recording their meetings. The complete version was a series of twelves volumes that was hard to find, but the condensed version explored the most indicative details. It was an excellent gift.</div>"

Even with the windows open the heavy smell of pine oil was considerably strong in the cool spring breeze. The floor had been swept, and the dishes cleaned. All the windows were thrown open for the spring air. Even the ragged thread-worn carpets and bed sheets hung outside on wooden racks to air in the cleanliness of spring.

The only thing of note was to refinish the furniture.

Of the few things Hugh had managed to learn in the sprint to prepare for spring was the preparation of wood spirits. Outside of Village walls within the hills to the north the village men had dug a great pit, lined with rocks. Here while clearing the land they had dumped the trunks and the saplings of their work. Having covered the clearing with moss and peat from the river-side they set it ablaze, smoldering the wood for its oils to drip down along the channel in the hillside until it dripped out the far end for it to be collected. For the several old farmers this was a regular practice, it had for them merely been a way to make extra money. But for the future it was decided it would be necessary for their survival.

This was the simple trade of tar making. The patriarch of the house had taught him where and how to use use it. In finishing furniture to give it a protected sheen. Or on boats to prevent the wood from water logging. If men were to fish they would need tar, else the wood would become soaked and they would sink.

And now he stood leaning over the table, applying with a filthy rag a fresh coat of varnish onto the rough ax and knife carved furniture. A mask of burlap wrapped around his face sealed his nose to the offensive odor as he vigorously applied the crude varnish besides the window. He'd gotten through the chairs, it was the table's turn.

He ran the rag over the scratches. Filling the knots, the cuts, and the gouges with the watery oil. The wood soaked it in, going dark as he went. When the door opened he stopped.

He looked up to the front door to see the wife of the family standing in the doorway. A simple gray and white dress hid her wide figure. Splotches of clay and dirt caked the front and bottom, a sign she had been working.

“Hello.” she said nervously, stepping inside. She was a gentle woman in her homeliness. A round youthful face watched the monk, her apprehensive blue eyes darting from he to the varnish.

“Good morn'.” Hugh politely greeted, lowering his head to continue refinishing the table.

“You know, my husband would normally do that outside...” she whispered, dismayed.

Hugh looked up, shocked. “Oh, I'm terribly sorry,” he stuttered, “Ms. Valouis. You see, I would have if I could carry it out the door...” he explained timidly, stepping back and nervously wringing the cloth between his hands.

“No, no.” she sighed, “I guess it's alright.” she sighed, putting down her purse of gardening equipment down by the door. She looked over the house floor, and its over all cleanliness.

“You really did a good job.” Ms. Valouis complimented. But her fervor was subdued, still shy.

“Thank you, I had a good day to myself to do it.”

“I'm sure, your honor. Have you seen my children?” she asked.

Hugh shook his head, “I imagined they might still be out playing.”

“Oh it's fair.” she answered with a soft breath, “Mr. McTrenkel, you've done some good work. Should you take the rest of the day off to catch your breath?”

“I would m'lady. But I'm hardly done.” he said defensively, “Though if I could finish the table at least.”

“I suppose you should.” the wife obliged, “You've done good, I don't want you exhausting yourself.”

“Don't worry, if I haven't died yet then it has not been my time.” Hugh humbly replied, turning back to his work.</div>"

Peadar passed a wooden spoon to Amsley Thatcher, who slid the smooth stick into his mouth and clamped down onto it with his teeth. Thatcher's huge frame was sprawled out on the rickety bed he shared with his wife. Peadar ran a hand over the blacksmith's bulging right knee that was off kilter with the rest of his leg, swollen and purple with bruises. He winced and whined, the noises coming from his throat betrayed his size and showed exactly how much pain this man was in. According to Amsley himself he was hard at work on a piece when his smithing hammer had slipped from his hand and crashed against his leg. The impact was tremendous and painful. The man who was over a foot taller than Peadar collapsed to the ground and had to drag himself into his house next door to his workshop.

""You have a dislocation of the knee,"" Peadar said slowly so that Thatcher in all his pain could understand what he was saying. He removed his spectacles and placed them into his coat pocket. ""That place where upper leg and lower leg are in confluence is out of line. I am going to pop it back into place very quickly. Now, this will be immensely painful but your pain will begin to recede upon it all being put back into place. Are you ready?""

""Yes,"" he grunted through the spoon. ""For the love all that is holy, just do it!""

""Okay,"" the doctor said softly, placing both hands on the knee joint. ""At the count of three: One... three!""

He jerked the kneecap to the right. A loud pop sounded through the small room, followed by Thatcher's howling. Pulling his spectacles back out, Peadar examined is handiwork and was satisfied that all appeared to be straight. Thatcher moaned and pulled the spoon from his mouth. He sighed and examined his knee while a coughing attacked seized Peadar. He covered his mouth with his jacket sleeve and frowned at the collection of mucus now on his sleeve. 

""It hurts,"" said Thatcher. ""But... not as bad.""

""As I said,"" Peadar said, wiping his sleeve on his pant leg. ""Give it a day or two and the swelling will be down. The tendons in that leg will be incredibly tight until you work them out. I suggest staying off of it for at least a day.""

""I don't..., I don't know if I can pay you, doctor."" Thatcher sat up in the bed and looked nervously at him. ""I just...""

""It's fine,"" he said with an easy smile. ""I do not do this for the money, as you might be able to tell from my dress. Tell you what, the next time someone dies I will need help burying them.""

""Say no more, doctor. Me and my boys will be happy to help.""

""Good,"" he said. ""It's a deal. One more thing? No more smithing while drinking.""

After declining the Thatcher's offer to stay for dinner, Peadar packed his bag and said his goodbyes before leaving their small house and heading towards the middle of town.</div>"

The remnants of that morn's breakfast were thrown up in the dirt, grilled trout with a side of grilled trout and for desert? More grilled trout. Enjoying the taste of fish as he might be, Pilsky couldn't help but wish he had a bit more variety to his diet. 

He stood up slowly from the log he had taken as a seat. The corners of his vision still wobbled, but he was getting better as time passed. He bent over to pick up a small crate, the contents of which being a huge load of shellfish he intended to sell at the market. Their meats would be certainly worth something right? That was, if there still was a town. Pilsky really had no idea what things were like in Uponhill. The whole place could just be a burning wreckage ransacked by natives and he hadn't known for weeks. 

That, or the place could be a thriving industrial town, complete with giant factories and roving fields of food. 

You never know. Along with the box, he tucked the strap of a small leather sack that held various fancy looking shells. Those he would sell to anyone foolish enough to want to make it into jewelry or a necklace. He had spent the last night scrubbing them up and making them shine, so they had better be worth the effort. Along with those was a small lunch of grilled trout... and a bit of carrots! 

His feet stamped down onto the earth as he made his way through the forest towards the town. Pilsky had made sure his rowboat was tied up, quadruple knotted, so he had no worry of someone stealing it. It was only after twenty minutes of walking did he make his first discovery. A dandy little cabin with a fast growing field. A man standing in it waved to him, and he waved back. It felt weird seeing a person for the first time in oh, say... two months? 

It was surprising how quickly the time had passed and how he hadn't gone mad at being alone for so long. Other than brief trips to the land to gather up water, and maybe a bit of scavenging for berries and what not, he had been on the ship alone for the major of his stay at the colony. After he had passed out of sight of the cabin, he stopped and stood still, not knowing what to do. He shook his head and slapped himself on the wrist for stopping. 

Things were very different as he reached the actual town. It was extremely different from the first months. It actually looked like... a <span class=""bb-i"">town.</span> People walked around doing their daily chores and he was shocked by the sound that emanated from it all. He was used to the relative silence of the waves and the seagulls that haunted his deck. There was some semblance of an inn, that or it was a boarding house. There were more things as well, from a tanner to a seamstress, to even a blacksmith that had a interesting man walking away from it. 

The doctor. Pilsky barely remembered the man, but he knew one thing, and that the man was a doctor. He looked around for a moment, wondering if he should tell the man. For the past few weeks, things had been going south for his teeth. His gums had been growing red and bled slightly from time to time, that and his teeth, though not in amazing shape to begin with, had begun to rot slightly. 

""Oi, doc! Doc, over here!"" He called as he jogged over.</div>"

He who shed his physical form to give rise to the world. Oh divine Providence, who washes over us in all times to direct our souls to purity and to keep us on the path to The One. Oh divine Providence, the soul of the breathing world hewn from His bones and bowls. May the Man, the Woman, and The Child; divine faces who exists in three; made to be one. Watch over us travelers. Grant our ruler wisdom and mercy. And may he be forgiven for what injustice he has done.

Oh divine Providence, I do not know this land. I do not know its water. I do not understand how children of  His blood could be led so far astray. I seek His patience to weather them and their land. I seek your wisdom so I may know it. I seek your strength so I may guide my sword against my enemies and correct His creation, if you Lord are so willing.

Oh divine Providence, I beseech your judging qualities. I ask that word of our king be delivered to on high so that he may be judged, so that I may forgive him. For his wrong doings to be corrected. So that I may return home. So that I may return home to the kingdoms of Tirna and Sorset. So I may smell the flowering bushes of Baed Caray. So I may snack on the honey of sweet Foren in its west. So I may see the gullies and the orchards and the sugar sands of Tannover Shea's southern vistas. I seek to see the greatest city to ever stand with my own eyes once again, and call it my own and my home: Doulein Town. May its silver walls be my refuge against the irredeemable, and so I may leave this cursed place.

Oh divine Providence, why do I feel I will never return? Why is it I weep so? Oh divine Providence, our servant to the divine lord, our knights to man and of earth. Oh Cal Ethahn, our Highest One what is the will of your spirit?

Here I am now, a humble servant to your will. Upon the clay of a land foreign to me, but named for my home. I feel betrayed, and I feel defeated. New Tirna is not the home for me. Yet my will to fight has be surpassed. I have to survive. Another winter has passed, and hardly word from the remains of my family back home.

I curse my king. Yet I can not do a thing.

--------------------------------------

The familiar sun rises over a strange new land. For a remote few below its gaze, the sun is the only thing familiar to them. It – like the sun and stars – are the very same they would gaze upon and bask in its glow in the old country. But this is not the old country. It is far from it. The land is unfamiliar, if even alien to them. Its wondrous beauties and terrifying depths span for miles outside the walls they have erected around their settlement, adventuring only so far out to fulfill the needs of their settlement and till the soil for this year's crops. They look inland in apprehension and silent fear of what might be beyond those hills. And they look to the sea, hoping that some day a ship bearing their flag will return to take them home, and not lump upon them a new wave of settlers or merely trade out supplies.

For these debtors, lucky criminals, and determined enemies of the old state they are alone. A first breed of a new adventurous people for their nation; whether or not they like it. A whole new hero or villain, colonists.

The settlement of Uponhill is a new experiment in exploration. Not one driven by the mercantilism of the old world or simply military conquests against familiar – if barbarian – foes. But a simple push into the unknown. And one not fueled – if initially – by the prospects of expanding the nation's wealth. No, this is a test by the despot of the United Kingdoms of Tirna-Sorset to deal with his potential enemies, debtors, and certain criminals. To those with broken social bonds and of questionable virtue. To put them out of sight and out of mind and secure for them a land so unknown and harsh that all thoughts of usurpation are defeated by not only the distance, but by the driving will to survive. And then in time these peoples will sire a whole new generation to occupy this land and expand the Empire.

And we here now are those colonists. Or the locals who must deal with them.

<div class=""bb-h2"">A brief history of Uponhill</div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Upponhill is a small village-size settlement, spread out roughly across ten square miles of swampy ground on the river Miller's Creek. Its citizenry are made up of the banished and exiles of their home, filling in a wide spread of the old country's social strata, ideology, race, and even religion. In some fashion these people were deemed at odds with the government of  Tirna-Sorset and needed to be dealt with.

As a case and an experiment, the despot of  Tirna-Sorset ordered the found and suspected enemies of his rule to be sailed across the great sea Aelaminus to establish a colonial outpost in his name. In time this town would become a center to deal with the threatening members of his land. A whole new colony, and a whole new prison. A prison of no guards, of the infinite prospect of freedom. But the harsh realities of exile and being forgotten. A penal colony.

It's been a year since the establishment of Upponhill. One so bad they were sure they would have perished if not for the assistance of some natives who fell sympathetic to the foreigners' plight, not having hardly enough resources to survive. So they helped them, to whatever effect this will have on them is a question yet to be answered. And of the original two-hundred that landed, twenty-two died from the poor weather and disease.

There are of course additional colonies on this coast. Some foreign, built by powers from the homeland. But none so near to Upponhill to be of any direct and immediate importance. For the colonists here, they are a distant dream to trade distantly with. Or for the impatient and jumpy: a target to raid.

Old habits die hard.</div></div>
<div class=""bb-h2"">A history of Tirna-Sorset</div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hider"" type=""button"">Hider [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The United Kingdoms of Tirna-Sorset were not always a unified kingdom, instead being two separate kingdoms separated by five miles of ocean water. Tirna, once ruled from the city of Doulein. This ancient and rugged kingdom of warriors and of ancient druidic ritual was at times in conflict with the much more passive and diverse kingdom of Sorset - ruled now from the once palatial complex of The Warrens - is a kingdom that had been built up by generations of migration and invasion that changed its face and make up. As with all kingdoms, they had fought each other. Or their rulers sought avenues of peace through marriage with each other.

Four-hundred years ago the faith of  Ethahn – Ethahnism - arrived to their kingdoms' doorsteps. A concept long developed out in the east, the cult of the god Ethahn promoted a sense of unity. It talked about powerful themes of temperance, modesty, and fidelity to one's self, your partner, and your liege-lord. It introduced a refined and broad set of social rules. It was a shake up. The next several decades to a century saw the rough inclusion of the God Who Sacrificed Himself To Make Creation into both their societies.

Ethahnism as it met local pagan mysticism did change and evolve. Ethahn adopted the ancient title of Cal – or lord – and several other titles: Highest One, Lord, etc. In addition it absorbed the concept of the mid-level spirits of local Paganism, the so-called Providences, often nameless spirits who conduct the divine will of heaven and “Fill creation's bones with spirit”.

Ethahnism's introduction and mutation on the western shores of the Old World facilitated an evolution in politics between the two nations. The concepts of fidelity burned in the noble houses. There was a stronger sense of union between the two and a series of jointly signed declarations and the gradual absorption of one house into the other merged the two kingdoms into the entity of Tirna-Sorset. The United Kingdoms continued to revise and strengthen their bond to the point that in many aspects the kingly titles of either state had become one, and effectively began preserving the multitude of ethnic and tribal groups in both states as Ethahnism proliferated society and numerous ideological interpretations of its teachings – The Coda – blossomed.

Thirty-five years ago Tirna-Sorset involved itself in a war against the kingdom of Antoinne in a dispute of inheritance concerning the small principality of Bruge. The king of Tirna-Sorset at the time – Brandon Aeloy – declared that his son and heir Ilroy was the legitimate heir to the death of the prince of Bruge. The Kingdom of Antoinne, fearing growing Tirna-Sorsetian hegemony and having their own legitimate claimant to the throne of Bruge like-wise declared their contender the heir. All the while the principality passed to the first cousin of the former prince, catching themselves in the middle of the two armies. Bruge resisted the conflicting interests of both nations but was eventually defeated by both within the year, forcing the ruling family to flee the country and acquire assistance of the neighboring kingdom of Loran-Nailes in order to reclaim the new prince's lost territorial claims, being married to the king's daughter.

What followed was an immense thirty year long war between three powers. Though  Antoinne amassed a larger alliance, Tirna-Sorset was able to outmaneuver and divide their Seven Nation Army at the battle of Rouge. However at the conflict, under the blare of cannon and musket fire the fates wouldn't be kind to their victory and decided that to have it a sacrifice would need to be made. And so King Brandon Aeloy stepped out onto the field to lead his cavalry against the enemy. And though his armor was heavy and his sword true, when he and his men fell upon the enemy lines a shot from his own cannons struck him directly and pulped the king against the enemy's musketeers.

Though painful, the battle was one. One final engagement was had at the River Tirus. Though fought mournfully it was commanded by the former King Brandon's top commander Aenda Kelendea of Tull. The victory shattered Antoinne and Loran in a bloody victory and they conceded peace. Signing a peace with Ilroy recognizing his claims to Bruge.

There was considerable celebration, but also mourning for the fallen king. Across the diverse kingdom people came out to honor their fallen king, recognizing this victory as his more than his son or even Aenda's. It was also a victory that would not last longer than a month.

Known to be a fond drinker, Ilroy was a dangerous man to his self. So it came as a disaster, if not one secretly whispered that it would happen, that he would do something incredibly dangerous. It came on one warm spring night as he roamed the towers of his family's palace with a bottle clenched in his fist. By the next morning he had disappeared, and was later discovered the day after dead on the palace roof, having fell from the window and breaking his neck in the fall.

His body was recovered, and a funeral held. According to the recognized laws of inheritance Bruges left Tirna-Sorsetian control, and Ilroy's five year old son Micheal inherited the throne.

Too young to rule on his own a regent was swiftly appointed, the victorious commander Aenda was named Regent, ruling in Micheal's stead. And over time, Aenda began to take more control. Using Micheal's name he wrote the youth out of power slowly, granting himself more privileges to spite the dynasty he served and was forgotten to. He courted the young king's widowed mother Joan and eventually married her. And then finally in unfortunate circumstance the young king was found dead in the countryside, presumably having fallen off a cliff after dropping his walking stick; having been known to have a club foot.

Aenda was quick to seize power, initiating a civil war with the nobility. But with the army at his side he was quick and merciless against them, squashing and destroying the noble houses that resisted them. For those that remained he captured and imprisoned, declaring enemies of the state. To the artists and poets that responded with criticism for his cruelty they were detained or executed. And for those who still had outstanding war debts he seized their property and threw them in shackles. Prisons swelled, and he continued his ironfisted reign.

He garnered support from militant ultra-conservatives amid the church of Ethahn and with them at his side he found the power to dispense with the faiths of minorities, shutting them away or discouraging their practice. He continued to isolate many groups considered a threat to his power, his claim, and the nation's stability. He became ruthless. Titling himself as despot and an emperor more than a king.

And finally, just a year prior it was suggested he go abroad to the new lands discovered by the Libirians across the great sea. His colonists would be those he shut away. This would be his first show of mercy and the restoration of grace for the nation. Those that could not contribute would be sent away to do just that. And those that questioned his rule would be put far from their ability to resist. They would be autonomous, this was true. But they would not find paradise.</div></div>

To keep myself from drowning the RP and stifling what I feel would be player determination for many aspects of this RP I will stop there and go onto the RP.

So what will be Colonial? If not keyed in already, it is one where we will assume the role of a colonist at the end of their first winter in Upponhill. As a whole, we will be charged with developing this colony and expanding it and to conquer the wilderness. As a unit we will be in command of the colony. Its growth, its personalities, its politics, and perhaps even military ambitions with its colonial militia.

The previous winter has been harsh and reminding. Now separated by many miles of ocean travel from their comfortable coffee houses or warm family farms they crawl out of their homes reminded at just how cruel nature can be. And with so much unknown out there, it is sure they'll find much more cruelty.

The colonists come from a diverse background. Many are debtors or simple criminals sentenced to be thrown from their homes to across the sea. Yet many more are former nobles or their families forced to leave their homes with as much as they can carry on their backs. Some are considered heretics by the church at home and sent west where their heretical fires might be stifled out by the harsh unforgiving landscape of the unknown continent. And the rest are in general a representation of every person who might pose a threat to Aenda; liberal and conservative alike.

While writing, it is good to know this RP is on set in a 17th/18th century equivalent.</div></div>

If we all made that mistake, I'd say the canon had been changed then. For the three of us to all read the OP the same way means the OP wasn't clear enough to uphold the distant date.

The idea I was going on BTW was that the war started roughly twenty one years ago, and everything after that was a quick destabilizing succession. 

It's such a tiny detail. It destabilizes three apps, and therefore damages three storyline's. And having the war be a distant memory is less cool then having it all be a recent blur.

With the current timeline making the major events so distant, the RP becomes an RP of descendants of exiles rather than of the exiles themselves. Unless we choose to play very old characters (which so far no one is), we're basically limited to playing as the sons and daughters (at best) of Aenda's adversaries, instead of playing as the adversaries themselves which is what I thought the RP was about.</div>"

If you're still looking for ""war traitor"" character excuses then there's still the point those with associations to, or who became themselves potential political threats to Aenda would have still played a significant role in the conflict, were born at its beginning, and grew up in the setting of the war, if placed distantly from it.

But ""war traitors"" are hardly the concern of the narrow view of Aenda's regime. The events of the war are merely more the catalyst for his rise to power in the civil war that shortly followed. Frankly, you and Vilage had the chance to read the history a good two-three times. Then again, I should have been more on the ball to catch and point out time discrepancies.</div>"

That is what the RP seemed to be about, and what we all felt would be the driving force behind it all. I don't understand why you are willing to blow off three character sheets (of trusted players that you've relied on in the past for feedback, no less) just because you want to keep some unimportant detail where the war takes a character-breaking amount of time to end. So far, none of the characters would find it beneficial to their story/history/anything for the war to have lasted so long. Quite the opposite - just about every character right now would be destroyed by it. All because you are unwilling to own up to the fact that things were unclear, and change one minor detail that, as of now, would not negatively affect any character. It would, however, positively affect three. 

I would argue even the RP would benefit from the change, considering how many doors making the major events a relatively recent thing would open for our characters. Making it a thing of the distant past takes away from the theme of the RP itself. It should be recent enough that it's personal and people have memories of having participated in it in major ways. It chips away (no, hacks way) at the potential when you make this a story of people who just happen to be related to more interesting (and now dead) characters that participated in the events that lead to the exile in some significant way, instead of allowing some of those characters to actually exist in the roleplay and, among many things, offer an insight into what caused them to be exiled in the first place.</div>"

Aenda's Revolution could come to an end three to four years ago if it matters.

But the matter of when the war started and for how long it went on is spelled on very strongly in the RP. It makes note of when - relative to the now - it happened at the beginning of the paragraph that sets off to establish the contemporary history of the old country. I could if anything adjust its length so there isn't a fifteen year gap between war's end and colonization where Aenda somewhere came to power.</div>"
21502,Colonial,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76362-colonial,['Advanced'],2015-02-13 19:10:00,Vilageidiotx,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Well, the main storyline I am worried about is this:

The nephew character, who is 21, is going to have been deployed with the navy in a foreign, India-esque place during the Bruge war. It would sort of be like Napoleon's campaign in Egypt (albeit a lot less involved), where they are mainly disrupting enemy trade and strong-arming the natives so that the area is politically and economically aligned with Tirna-Sorset. He would have only been there for a few years at the final stages of the war, but it would be important to his identity. 

I had been going with the idea that they stayed after the war and, when the rebellion, they were kept out of the loop. So the naval detachment in the south, including the nephew character, wouldn't have known about the rebellion until it was over. People with strong connections to the factions that rebelled, the nephew included in this number, would have been imprisoned and put through a trial process. The nephew and a couple of people who had served in the navy are sent into exile.

To fix this to the a unchanged version of the original timeline would require a couple of things that complicate this. For one, the deployed navy being kept out of the loop for a long rebellion would stretch reality. This is annoying, and will open holes one way or another, but that isn't the biggest issue.

To make everything work, i'd have to add fifteen years to his age, which not only puts him in a very different time of his life and completely weird out his character, but it also would put him at age with his aunt. This creates a problem, because the personal relationships between the family members are going to be part of the story, and him being at age with his aunt would change things too dramatically (not to mentioned we have to consider when Riordan would have been around to make babies). Which means I would have to age them all up. And that, really, would break everything I was planning on doing. I would need to make new plans by scrapping what I already have.

There really isn't much of an argument for keeping the distant time frame. It's unwieldy and spreads recent events out rather thinly across the timeline. If you want some distance, it might be better to have the Bruge war start twenty five years ago and end five years ago. Five years for a rebellion and exile seems reasonable. Anything more... that is RP breaking.</div>"

I think there may be 5 leftover years though. In the OP, it says the war started 35 years ago, but then it says it lasted 25 years.

You need to edit 'It lasted 25 years' to 'It lasted 30 years', otherwise there are 5 leftover years in there.

Last of the Mohicans and Conquest of Paradise come to mind.

Last of the Mohicans is really good. It has Daniel Day Lewis in it, and involves a lot of running around the types of places that would be in this rp. <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGkNHG64O-8"">Also has a pretty cool theme</a>.

Conquest of Paradise is... definetly not a documentary. It was born out of the backlash against Columbus revisionism, and they seem to be trying to excuse Columbus of being the raging dick-storm that he historically was. So really, it ends up being a lot of ""No srsly, Columbus was cool, people just kept being dicks and blamed it on him."" Still, same time-frame, might have some inspiration in it. <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94dY-QxjDiE"">Also cool, melodramtic theme.</a>

Most of us have known each other for a while, and those of us that do are an older lot than most RP circles, mostly over eighteen and largely in our twenties, so we have real life responsibilities to attend to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name: Bristlebane</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles: Troubadour, Hero, Thief, Savior, Demon, Angel</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Age: 19</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills: Music, Break-dancing, Acrobatics, Sword-fighting, cooking, lying, singing, stealing, sneaking and flirting</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
Two Swordbreakers,
Several throwing knives 
A lute 
Travelling rations
A sleeping bag
Flint and steel
Several smoke bombs
One bola
One revolver
A bullet mold, 
Lots of money 
and a small bugling horn 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality: Bristlebane is a dashing young fellow full of liveliness and adventure. A travelling musician, but he is also more of that, he aims to become a hero of sort and is quite adept in combat, specifically when fighting many opponents, as on his travels he has often been set upon by brigands. He is a shameless flirt, however besides that he maintains a strictly chivalrous front. Of course he would never lie to a lady, much less fight one, and help any damsel in distress he can find. That said he can be a bit arrogant at times and quite overbearing</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography: Bristlebane's past is unknown however many believe him to be a travelling noble, it would certainly explain his eccentrics, and his well educated manner. Of course other rumors speak of him as a terrible mix of demon and angel, one moment wooing a beautiful damsel, the next tearing into a group of villains that insist upon wrong doing. Of course no one can say for sure where he came from, perhaps even himself?</span></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Tsubasa Akiyama (Western order, given name first.) 
<span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles:</span> The Red Death  
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 23  

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Expert Swordsman - Having trained most of his life in the art of the sword, Tsubasa is quite adept with a blade. Drawback: Without a blade he's severely weakened.</li><li>Stealth - Becoming an assassin has taught Tsubasa the importance of stealth. He can't make himself disappear in shadows or ninja his way across buildings, but he's good at staying unnoticed and setting up ambushes. Drawback: Once noticed, he's hard to forget.</li><li>Agility - Tsubasa is significantly faster than the average person during activities such as running and leaping. Drawback: Brute power is lacking.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> [Approved by GM]
Sekiga, Tsubasa's sword, is more than a well made heirloom. In Nijiara, there are legends of famous swordsmiths and swords who were supernatural in ability, becoming more powerful the more enemies they slew, or so sharp they could cut a dragonfly that landed on their blade. Sekiga the Red Fang is one of these, bearing a special enchantment. 

Effect: When Sekiga cuts an opponent, it ""drinks"" their blood and stores it in a hollow inside the hilt. A normal wound will provide 1 ""unit"" of blood. This blood can be used for three different techniques. 10 units can be stored at a time.

Uses: 
Blood Elixir - By drinking the blood in the hilt, Tsubasa can heal minor wounds and accelerate the healing of greater wounds. It requires 3 units of blood. 5 units will heal greater wounds. 7 units will heal all wounds.

Bloody Reaver - A boiling wave of blood is released as a projection of a sword slash to travel roughly ten meters before it begins to fall apart. The target, if struck, is ""slashed"" as if with a hot blade. Requires 3 units.

Blood Rot - The blood inside the hilt begins to rot and blacken. When using this technique, each cut of the sword on a target will poison them, building over time. One cut will slightly numb the struck limb. Two cuts will paralyze that limb. Three spreads numbness over that side of the body, four over the whole body, and so on and so forth. Each cut consumes 1 unit of blood, and while the technique is in use more blood cannot be drawn.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span><ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Sekiga - This sword, its name meaning ""Red Fang"" is a well forged and well maintained steel katana that has been in Tsubasa's family for generations. It bears a dangerous enchantment.</li><li>Standard Traveling Gear - All that stuff required for world-wandering, like a pack and sleeping bag.</li><li>Extra Clothes - In his line of work, Tsubasa often makes use of disguises.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Cold, sarcastic, unnecessarily hostile, determined to the point of obsession. Seems somewhat tired all the time, with a haggard expression, but when focused or angry his eyes grow sharp and bright once more. Cares little about people and a great deal about money and status. However, in rare moments, there are hints of a great sorrow within, and it seems not all of his traits are genuine...

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
Tsubasa's ancestors were famous sword masters, and from the age of six he was trained in the art of the blade by his father. Tsubasa's mother, however, was a foreigner to Nijiara, and he inherited her hair and eyes. This made him somewhat of an oddity among his neighbors, and he was treated as such. He experienced many hardships, and one in particular drove him away from the village where he grew up. To make a living he resorted to using his blade for any reason at all, regardless of what side of the law he was on. Gangs, banditry, and finally, assassination. 

Tsubasa eventually became well known in the underworld of Nijiara, perhaps a little too much so. It was then that he heard that the king of New Torrea had fallen ill and that the kingdom's Minister had new, questionable policies.

A throne ripe for taking, a politician that people didn't like. It sounded like a ripe job market ready to burst, so Tsubasa packed his necessities and struck out on the road.

<span class=""bb-b"">Others:</span> Often uses berry juice, crushed flowers, or other methods of dying his hair to prevent himself from standing out when on the job. Still, some of the color often manages to shine through, giving him his nickname in the underworld.</div>"

He enjoys action, but knows when he needs to back up and keep living.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography: Dante was born in Hoskaros as a child, during a time of strife. He grew up learning to fight and fend for himself, learning combat skills and how to handle a blade. He had minimal gun training, but never has had a real opportunity to practice and use guns.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span></span>  
Yunan  

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles:</span></span>  
The Weaver  

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span></span> 
He looks to be around 18 to his early 20s  

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span></span>
Magic - Yunan is a talented person with his skills being almost like a prodigy in the magical arts, being very talented and resourceful on what he has at hand. Despite his flaws that he has, he manages to come up with something to shorten the gaps that are made. Despite his lack of mana to preform spells after spells, he is able to preform an combination of spells to create a larger and more potent effect. This effectively saves up a small amount of mana when doing so and it takes longer but its energy-conservative. His overall knowledge of magic in every branch is well versed as if he have studied them extensively but his age and skill in them dont show, making many people doubt him.  

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span></span>
Yunan is a skilled and specializes in the branch of Lightning and Protection magic, which he effectively uses separately. He doesn't often use the two elements together but are potent either way individually. Outside those two magic branches Yunan is still capable of casting spells of above average difficulty, meaning that he is fairly proficient in general but chooses to focus on the two. His magical output is amazing and can overwhelm majority of mages who are the same caliber as him, but he is hold back by a fatal weakness. What is limiting him on using his magic is that Yunan sadly has a smaller amount of mana than the regular mage and has to be fairly careful on using his spells as he tires himself out quickly. But with the style of casting that he uses he often manages to go through a long fight with some difficulty but survives with a tiny bit of mana left. However the most noticeable spell that he seems to always have up with little to no difficulty is called the 'Borg' which is a barrier that constantly surrounds him in a yellow barrier. It can block off most physical attacks and some magical attacks but its defensive prowess depends on the magical powers of whoever use it. However an immense amount of force from a physical attack can crush and destroy the barrier, but the best way is to use magic and destroy it. (Guns.... Uhhh pls no hit me)   

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span></span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Solomon's Staff:</span></span> Yunan's staff is an artifact gained by mysterious means but allows him to more easily preform his spells without using much of his own mana, by drawing it upon the energy of the land and spirits its easy to use when combining spells. The absorption rate of the staff is nothing impressive but it saves Yunan a great deal of trouble but if he wants to cast magic fast he still has to contribute some mana to cast quickly. If too much energy is drawn it could create disastrous effects on the environment and cause the staff to fizzle out for hours at end making sure that Yunan doesn't overuse it. It also has a secondary use of being able to communicate to spirits and guide them to the 'after-life' if it is needed.</li><li><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Force Necklace:</span></span> A necklace bought from an marketplace, it enhances magical spells placed on the user that aren't healing. Mostly bought to empower shields placed on the user by allied spells or themselves, it helps mages survive during close combat. Combined with the spell 'Borg' it creates a very powerful defense that weaker guns have trouble getting through sometimes.</li><li><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Mystery Cube:</span></span> A strange cube that Yunan carries around with him, it generally has no use but when placed in a bowl of water. It adsorbs it before releasing a foreign material that slowly disappears into the air. It is presumed that it also adsorbs air as well and releases the purified form of that, making it a magical air-cleaner while storing the pollution in itself. When it is released it creates a big wind spell that knocks everything away in a 10 meter radius.</li><li><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Traveling Bag:</span></span> A bag which holds all the bare necessities for Yunan when traveling, which holds a tent, a sleeping bag and occasionally has some extra food in there.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></span>
Yunan is a distant person who often keeps to himself, however when aggravated and brought to a corner he turns into a unforgiving and unrelenting opponent who will probably kill a person even if they have surrendered. Yunan isn't really know for his friendliness but his loyalty is no question unless you do something to severely break his trust in which he wouldn't publicly show, you would have to find about it yourself. However, rarely when he is in the mood to be friendly or even talkative, he is often a curious person asking why this or that happens and sometimes these question can even be about general things. Although he doesn't seem like the type, he is easily impressionable by people around him and will do by example, so unless you teach him he will interpret things his own way. Outside his silence and sometimes aggressiveness, he gives off the air of naiveness and clueless to people who come upon his.   

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span></span></span>
Not many people know where Yunan come from, some people says he is the apprentice of an arhcmage but ran away, other have said he is a demonic being that escaped from the clutches of the church. Other rumors says that he simply just comes a small town and recently exposed his powerful abilities as a magician. Either way it is no fact that Yunan is a rumor flying about that he is a person who is a talented mage, who is nearly unreachable with several exceptions. Scattered reports shows that Yunan is a person who doesn't linger in a place for long and has no real goal to achieve in mind, however places that are visited by him are usually highly advance in technology or in medicine of both scientific and natural kind. Besides those scattered places Yunan doesn't travel anywhere else interesting. However, the next place he is visiting now is New Torrea.

However, he is still at a disadvantage if a swordsman is in his face at point blank range, as he'd probably get cut down before he can fire any rounds.</li><li>Fast Reflexes: He can react pretty fast to several situations, but this leads to many snap judgements that don't always favor him in the long run.</li></ul></span>

He only fights if necessary, and deflects any questions about the people he's killed.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:
Elijah was born to a forgettable family in New Torrea. Like any other family, they tried to make things meet, and such, Elijah was sent off to a monastery so they wouldn't have to pay for his food and schooling. Elijah's early days were filled with endless teachers attempting to cram as much knowledge as they could in his head. Elijah found a savior in one of the sponsors of the church, Elijah was taken in by this man and his wife, who treated Elijah as their son, as the missus was biologically incapable of bearing children. The man also happened to be a avid gunsmith. Elijah learned the way of the gun, even self teaching himself at times because even the experts of the field of firearms were relatively rare and offered only limited information. He left the house at the age of 16, and has been spending the other six years of his life as an adventurer and freelance mercenary.</span></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 20  

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Somewhat decent marksmanship, Climbing, Reading, repairing, and bargaining.

As well as a back-pack that contains his coin, some miscellaneous personals, and survival/climbing tools. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Avon isn't an aggressive boy. If it wasn't due to his previous circumstances he wouldn't even carry a weapon on him at all. However, he he isn't a pacifist either. He doesn't take much too seriously and is just trying to enjoy himself and get by in life. Dreams and ambitions of wealth and power elude him for the most part, he just wants to travel and get to know people. He tries to be personable, and does his best to not make many enemies. Even when he gets pissed off, he often lacks some of the fortitude necessary to act upon his anger. This is both a flaw and a blessing to him. It allows him to think a little more before acting out, but also sometimes prohibits action when necessary. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Born and raised in New Torrea, Avon lifed the life of the middle-class citizen, if such a word can be used in this situation. He and his parents worked as specialty gun-smiths, and were decent at it. They specialized in hand-guns, and were the go-to people when it came to customized weaponry. They could make almost any kind of hand-gun you want, so long as you had the money and the patience for it. However, not much of that matters now.

Avon's father was 'persuaded' to help with the expansion. His skills as a gun-smith were needed to keep an edge over the country's newer inhabitants, to help keep them co-operative. However, life at home didn't change all that much. Avon's mother had some skills when it came to smithing as well, even if she wasn't as good as his father. She kept them afloat. A few years went by like that, the two of them working the shops, but as he grew Avon knew this wasn't the kind of job he wanted. Now, he respect his father and mother's work, but after sending letters too and from his dad, he knew he had wanted to explore the world.

His mother had no objections, she was actually rather happy. Moving about like that would make it a little harder for the gov't to draft him, not that they would actually try that hard. Plus, it was a mother's job to support her child! However, before he could leave his home and begin to explore, he received two gifts from his dad. The first was a handgun, built to some designs Avon drew up as a child, and the second was a pendant. There was a letter as well, but that was more customary then gifty. However, what wasn't customary was the contents. His father told him about the minister, and what was going on with their country. 

They didn't hear much about it from their neighbors or friends, being within one of the more patriotic areas. They would hear about how the minister was 'doing god's work' and other things like that. But Avon's father told him what he knew, and what he expected. Now, Avon wasn't always a driven kid, but after hearing what his father was concerned with he couldn't help be interested. So, with his new 'best friend' in hand and both a drive to help and explore, Avon would set off!

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Hazael Michaellis

<span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles:</span> Knight Lieutenant Commander, The Strongest of the Triumvirate.  Triumvirate (alongside her siblings)

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 19 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Michaellis Sword Play: It starts with her and will probably end with her. She designed this style of swordplay out of need because she wanted to protect his siblings. She uses a greatsword with great dexterity and speed, even if it wouldn't seem possible, both because of her build and the weight of the sword, and yet, her strikes are both precise and deadly. However, this kind of swordplay tires her like no other thing. If a fight prolongs a bit too much, even if she wins, she may need to stay in the hospital for a while.</li><li>Sneak: As a former hunter of the wilds, Hazael knows how to sneak up on anyone and them not noticing before it is too late.</li><li>Endurance: Hazael is very durable. It is a common rumor in Torrea that she took a bullet to the heart and survived. It is a mystery whether this is true or not.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><span class=""bb-i"">The Templar's Stigmata</span>, not an special weapon, nor enchanted. Hazael merely thinks it sounds cool like that. A greatsword forged by one of the best blacksmiths in Torrea.</li><li>Traveling Wares and Trinkets, all of them safely packed in a backpack she tends to either drag around with her or leave at the doorstep of his house. It is a bad idea to steal it, though, the retribution will be terrible.</li><li>Heavy Duty Lieutenant Commander armor, an extremely heavy suit of armor she sports only in the most critical situations, otherwise, she goes into battle with light armor. This is mostly because this armor is way too heavy and makes her fighting clumsy and slow.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Calm and stoic, truly a composed person. She has a motherly aura to her, since she has taken care of her siblings since they were just babies. It is really hard to see her in another mood that isn't either happy or calm, still, they do say that the scariest people are the calmest ones. It is really hard to get her mad, but if you do, well, you probably deserve what is coming onto you. She can also be quite the jester at times too, coming up with witty sarcastic comments or things of the like. Hazael also has an incredible sense of comradery, as she is unable to leave behind or even bare to see someone troubled with their problems. She will always try her best to aid her comrades in arms or friends whenever she is able to. 

Hazael also doesn't have what is called a moral compass. She will do just about anything the king orders her to do, no matter how evil, still, she doesn't follow the same rule when receiving orders from the prime minister. Still, her loyalty will become null if the order involves making some kind of harm to her siblings, as she values them over everything else. She will forget even her dearest friends if they manage to damage her precious siblings in the slightest. A bit obsessive and nagging, people often see her both as a father AND a mother. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Hazael used to live in a forest near the border of New Torrea with Nijiara. It was pretty calm and she could hunt all she wanted because of that. She live in a log cabin between the woods with her other 4 siblings, making them a family of 5 in total. 3 women and 2 men. Orphans since Hazael first had use of reason, they were left there in the woods by their parents when Hazael first knew how to talk, walk, and think for herself. She had to take care of all of her siblings, one of which was a baby. Life was rough, but she soon got the hang of it. 

Go out with a bow, spot an animal, kill it, bring it home and eat. Wash, rinse, repeat. They got by by just doing that. She also taught her other siblings how to hunt and use weapons, to defend themselves. Living there in the border was really peaceful since political matters didn't affect them. It was a harsh, but still happy life. That is, until soldiers and knights from New Torrea started coming to the log cabin, demanding the payment of taxes they weren't even aware of. After scaring them more than a couple of times, New Torrea finally decided to do something smart, ask them to join their military. Seeing this as a way out of having to risk their lives just to live another day, Hazael took them up on their offer almost instantly. Still, her two sisters decided to stay there, after the recruiter told them what was happening in the capital. Hazael was also okay with that, and confident that she could actually defend herself, and left to the capital with her other two brothers. 

After entering the military, she and his sibling experienced a rapid development and soon scalated through the ranks, leaving others in the dust. Both of her siblings are currently just a few ranks below Hazael herself. Hazael has been called a prodigy, even though she doesn't quite feel like it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles:</span> The Paper Angel
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female 
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 25

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Jii3FVQ.jpg""/></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> A young Caucasian woman with striking red eyes and long pale red hair that reaches down to her waist. She has a slightly eccentric manner of dress, wearing a pair of red tinted goggles on her forehead and long flowing scarf at all times. She stands at roughly 5ft11 in height and has a lithe, toned figure. Her left arm is bandaged up to the elbow, covering a burn mark received when when she was still an inexperienced magi. Her bandaged hand is hidden beneath a robust, armour lined glove. In contrast she wears a fingerless black glove on her right.

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
Magical Resonance – Paper God Magic can resonate with benign magical essences to either reinforce spells already present such as wards or seals or to imbue her paper with additional properties. The latter requires cooperation with another mage. Resonating magic is far more difficult to interfere with and disrupt. It is also more draining on the user as well.

Foci Split – Chloe has trained to be able to effectively wield a wide variety of weaponry so as to make best use of her particular style of magic. This skill allows her to seamlessly swap between weapon types without interrupting her rhythm. Her skill level is easily exceeded by masters of particular weapon types or styles, as one would expect. The power of Foci Split lies in versatility and adaptability.

Strong Vessel - Years training as an apprentice to an experienced mage have their benefits, such as rigorous, repetitive training of even the most basic of cantrips. From such practice an apprentice gains increased magical stamina and efficiency.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> Paper God Magic is the ability to freely manipulate sheets of paper through the will of the user to form a wide variety of shapes and forms. The more skilled the user the more complicated and intricate the shapes that can be formed. Paper that is being manipulated is far more durable and resistant to damage than conventional paper and is as strong as any steel while Paper God Magic flows through it. Basic practitioners of this magic use it to form small weapons and shields, more advanced practitioners have a far more varied repertoire of techniques as their disposal. 

The greatest weakness of Paper God Magic is that of fire, regardless of whether the fire is magical or natural in origin, though natural fire needs to burn far hotter then magical fire to inflict the same degree of damage. Paper that has been soaked in water or oil is also an issue for practitioners of this form of magic as it becomes more difficult to wield, especially if magic is involved. However paper that is already being manipulated can only be drenched by the use of magically imbued water. As distance from the caster increases so does the difficulty in maintaining control of any manipulated units of paper, preventing effective long range attacks and limiting the effective range of the magic to medium range at most.

Elemental Affinity – Paper God Magic
*Fire – Very Weak
*Water – Weak
*Earth – Resistant
*Lightning – Resistant 
*Wind – Resistant
*Light – Neutral
*Darkness – Neutral

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
*Goggles – Red tinted goggles used to reduce the glare of bright lights and to protect the eyes from dust and the like.
*Scarf – A wide and long brown scarf worn around the neck. Possesses no magical or supernatural properties, its value purely sentimental. Whatever material it is made from it does not burn very easily.
*Backpack – Full of paper mostly, along with a few perishables.
*Steel Rods – It is easier to form a weapon around a core material then without one.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Chloe can be somewhat eccentric in both her mannerisms and actions but there is never any doubt as to the honesty of her intentions and is generally easy to befriend. She often comes across as a somewhat lazy, needlessly cheerful and surprisingly intrusive individual with no apparent notion of privacy or personal boundaries. In battle Chloe will always seek out the tactical advantage, preferring to avoid head on and prolonged combat when at all possible. She is also very protective, willingly sacrificing her own safety to shield other people from harm. Unsurprisingly she has been injured more than a few times, sometimes grievously. She is terrified of magical fire and will cocoon herself in paper if she has no way of running away.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Chloe is the adopted daughter of knight commander Callahan Chevalier, a brave and well respected soldier in service to his majesty king Allamon of Torrea. Something of a tomboy Chloe spent far too much time at her fathers heel growing up, her natural curiosity always getting her into mischief of one sort or another. Not that her father minded all that much, he was happy so long as she was happy. But things are never that simple in the real world and when Chloe started puberty her magic started to manifest itself. Violently. Untrained magic is dangerous for all concerned and so it was with a heavy heart that Callahan sent his daughter to Milokis to be apprenticed to an experienced mage at the behest of King Allamon's court mage, who used his connections to secure the arrangement. 

Being apprenticed to a mage was not such a bad thing as it turned out, there was always something to occupy her curiosity. And she was a quick study, her form of magic relying more heavily on intuition than extensive and studious discipline. As a mage in training she was expected to perform all manner of tasks as deemed appropriate by her master. These included lofty tasks such as accompanying knights into dangerous ruins to battle evil monstrosities, to chasing rats with a broom in the masters pantry. Both were equally important, according to her master. Though Chloe had her doubts on that account. One day, her master assured her, she would understand.

She had yet to complete her apprenticeship when word of civil unrest reached her, followed shortly thereafter by the news that her father had just barely survived an assassination attempt by some unknown faction. Chloe returned to the capital as soon as she was able, her master wishing her all the best, knowing he could not dissuade her from her course. After all, she was her fathers daughter.</div>"

A head of raven hair reaches down to her earlobes. Eyes shock blue they hold the cold of a winters storm. Sharp features and a stoic air they seem unapproachable. This is Alice. Alice stands at roughly 6'6 and wears a long hooded cloak of black. Her arms are long and lanky, giving her a surprising reach and the impression that he is taller than he actually is. Matching black gloves, greaves and pants he is hard to notice at night, and sticks out like a sore thumb in the day.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 22

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> Alice is a talented user of the rapier, using her long reach for deep thrusts, her strong legs for quick step in's and her stoic appearance to make her see like a machine. She is not the best swordsman in the country, likely not even the state, though she stands shoulder to shoulder with those who can claim to be so. Light on her feet Alice is skilled in the act of remaining unseen. She has been teaching herself for quite a while about alchemy and apothecary. She is a grand forager, and a decent hunter. She can handle a bow to some degree.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> Her pure black rapier, nameless. Her silver short-bow, also nameless.  Her satchel, hidden under her cloak and containing preserved food and gold. She keeps her study books and journals with her as well She travels light, and doesn't seem to take much with her. 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Alice is a quiet type of person. She lives in her own mind, and doesn't seem to care much what others think of her or the image she gives off.   Recluse she values privacy and silence, though she isn't going to push someone away if they try to speak to her. A bit awkward with her speaking, she may seem a tad bt rude or more so, inept in social situations. Protective of what she values, and willing to let everything else go at a moments notice, she is more likely to be defending then attacking. Violent, if need be, though she will not start conflict on purpose. She is the sort of person who wishes to simply explore and see, instead of do and act. Altogether, a passive and quiet type, who once made a friend, is hard to lose. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> All that Alice seems to share with people, is that she may have come from old-money. There was a fire at her old home, and she doesn't enjoy speaking of her family.

Cassie is always dressed rather properly, and has a thick leather harness that she uses to lug her Howler Cannon around with.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Cassie Strom

<span class=""bb-b"">Nicknames/Titles:</span> The Bombshell

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 28

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Bombadier</span> - Cassie is one of the best sappers you could find. Admittedly when your weapon blows up large square footage anywhere near where it lands, that doesn't count for much, but she is admittedly excellent at making her shots land where they're needed.
<span class=""bb-u"">Explosives</span> - Cass can easily combine various materials to create make-shift bombs, or disarm other explosives rapidly.
Collateral damage - Her cannon is small as far as cannons go, but it's still a cannon.
<span class=""bb-u"">Demolition</span> - There's very little this girl can't blow up.
<span class=""bb-u"">Architecture</span> - When you spend your life blowing buildings up, you learn a thing or two about architecture in general.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
- Single Shot Howler Cannon *meant to be used by a single person, the Howler is a simple muzzle loaded cannon that can be braced against the hip to fire either directly forward or arced for greater range and to clear fortifications. She can only get one shot off before she needs to reload, but if she's got the space, she can make about 3 shots per minute. Can be used medium to long range, but is useless up close. Ammo consists of a heavy slugs or grapeshot, situation depending*
- Howler Support Gear *stands for keeping the cannon upright, and a basic maintenance/cleaning kit*
- Rope *always handy, but often used to help strap the cannon to herself*
- Black Powder satchels *mostly used for the Howler, can be used as makeshift bombs*
- Grenades *essentially ready made molotov cocktails used to keep enemies from reaching her*
- Dagger *more utility than combat oriented*
- Three shot pistol *last resort if someone with a blade manages to reach her in a battle*
- Flint *often used to ignite the black powder when in a pinch*
- Monocle *it's generally assumed she wears it to look more refined*

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Cassie is a pyromaniac with a deep love of blowing things up. Despite her very formal looking appearance and love of lavish fineries, this girl is one bullet short of a full clip at all times. Not insane, but renowned as unstable, Cassie is driven and passionate. Loud, boisterous, and fiery, especially around explosions or fire. She loves the smell of gunpowder and is infatuated with guns, the bigger the better. Despite this 'explosive' attitude, she is fiercely loyal to King Allamon, and takes great pains to help others who need it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> An immigrant from Milokis, Cassie came to New Torrea with her father and sister. Though most of her life was spent in relatively poor conditions, she eventually joined the army, aspiring to be a great knight. However, her melee skills were beyond lacking, earning her a position at the bottom of her squad in terms of skill. She was transferred to a gunners platoon, and while she fared better, she was still one of the worst around. A sharp eyed captain noticed however that her understanding of the chemicals within the guns was beyond compare. She was again transferred to the sappers, and her purpose became clear. She showed an immediate affinity for the huge guns, and became an asset to her team. The Howler cannon became her life, and she fits it perfectly. She sends most of her pay to her father, to help raise and educate her sister so that she may have a better life than either of them, away from the military. However, when Allamon became bed ridden, Cassie was put in a tense situation. If she left the military, her sister's education would need to stop, and she would be forced to get a job just to make ends meet. The family would probably never leave their current standing, and struggle their entire lives. However, she disagrees completely with the Minister's vision, believing that to expand would simply cause the empire to collapse in on itself as their former allies turn on them in defense. She has yet to make a choice about how she should proceed yet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Others:</span> She is absolutely useless in any fight that doesn't involve her bombarding from a distance. Those who manage to break through her onslaught and grenades are often met with the woman simply picking up the cannon and fleeing, taking potshots with her pistol as she does so. She is still a pretty awful shot with her pistol. Often times, to avoid melee, she'll simply ignite everything around her, taking her chances with the flames instead of a sword to the stomach.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
-Skilled Manipulator: Salazar has always had a way with words. He has perfected this skill to the point where he can convince people of innocence and bluff his way out of most situations.

-Friends In High and Low Places: Salazar's position in life has given him the unique situation of a Court mainstay and an information broker, as such he has many connections to lords and beggers alike.

- Rudimentary sword skills.


<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> 
- Illusionist: Illusion magic is as varied as it can get, but can never cause harm through the spells themselves. It is the ability to project images into reality, alter how people see and hear the world, alter the mind of those targeted.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> 
-Light traveling clothes
- A short sword 
- A small dog eared leather-bound book.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Salazar is a man whose personality is hard to pin down. A consummate liar, a man of sociopathic tendencies and an innate ability to feign emotions leads people to believe that Salazar is indeed a genuine person with emotions, it is mostly far from the truth. Salazar does have moments when he shows some emotion, though they are few and far between.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> 
Salazar was born to a noble family, the eldest of three and the only son. Salazar was expected from a young age to be a near perfect court identity. This plan fell away when it was discovered he had the ability to use magic, or in his case...the ability to craft illusions. As such,  the plan altered to create Salazar into the absolute Perfect court identity. Sent away to be instructed by an illustrious Illusionist, Salazar returned in a much shorter time than expected,  returning with mystical skill and a single leather-bound book.

Years passed,  education and court seasons building Salazar into the consummate liar and manipulator. But with the years came a penchant to explore. Salazar eventually withdrew from his court with a lords permission to explore the world and return with new stories to share.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> Nex is a master of Shadow Magic, which allow him to control, manipulate, energize, and solidify shadows to use in combat, as well as for a variety of other things, this also allows him to become as formless as a shadow, thus allowing him to change how he looks. Here are some examples of basic spells, and his #1 most Powerful spell that has earned him the majority of his infamy:<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Shadow Bolt: A bolt of energized shadow that can be fired either in rapid fire or more powerful charged shots</li><li>Shadow Scythe: A shadow contsruct that takes the form of a scythe, the blade of which is extremely sharp and can grow, shrink, and even be made into a whip like projection, doesn't harm the caster.</li><li>Shadow Tendrils: Rather self explanatory, this spell allows Nex to summon tendrils of shadows, either for combat, utility, or for fun, if you know what I mean</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span> <ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>The Black Book:Effects of said book are TBA</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Nex is very much like a young child in his way of reasoning, if he sees something he wants, he'll take it. Anyone who gets in his way will be removed quickly and painfully.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Once upon a time, there was a young mage of great power and skill, so much so that he was even granted the honor of training under a member of the mage's council. rom the age of 7-14, he buried himself in his studies, wanting to prove to all that he was worthy of this honor. One day, however, he stumbled upon an ancient grimoire that seemed to be made from the hide of a black dragon. The tome wreaked of dark magic, and yet instead of repulsing the boy, it only drew him towards its, like a moth to a flame. The moment he laid his hand upon it, the book sprang open, the pages full of nothing but darkness that surged forth and consumed the boy dragging him screaming into it's dark depths. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Others:</span> As long as Nex serves the book and has it in his possession, he cannot be killed, only severely wounded. He can still kill himself, however, from over use of his magic.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
 He is a skilled tactician and very adept at swordplay.   
<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
 Damon always wears his fathers armor and a sword with a new blade fashioned from the hilt of his fathers sword. He often has a sheild on him, but half the time its whatever is lying around him as a shield, rather then the one fashioned with his family crest on.  
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
 Damon is a person who is hard to to get to know as he is very private in his opinions. Because of this it is also very hard to get him to trust you, but if you do his loyalty is near unbreaking. Those he respects or like he will go to any level to help while, this he does not dislike, but has no real liking of, he will help where it is not difficult for him to do so.   
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span>
 Damon was the second born of House Farrow, with his elder brother dying at his fathers side, serving the King, making him the heir to the Family Mantle. Upon receiving this title he was invited to the castle, as his father had told the king of his uncanny ability to strategise, an ability on par with, if not exceeding, that of the Kings current Generals and other loyal followers who helped with battle tactics. He also inherited his fathers other title, that of Captain of the Kings Guard. While this role was his fathers he had to earn it like anyone would, the role had to be held by a lord and they had to be loyal to the king. Damon earned the role purely from his fathers loyalty, one that it took him a while to share. Normally the Captain of the Kings Guard would protect the King silently, taking no orders and conversing with the king very little if ever at all, simple being expected to know how to best protect the king at all times, but Damon had also been invited as the Kings guest for his first visit. Upon arriving he was told about how the King had grown to trust his fathers opinion and it seemed he was looking to hold Damon in the same light, but Damon seemed reluctant to give his opinions, speaking only to when prompted and never in much detail. After some months in the King service, attending council meetings on the pretense of the Kings Protection, he began to to understand the King deeper, he began to respect him as more then just the ruler, but as a just ruler, as a good man. It wasn't long before Damon began giving the King more advice, much to the kings surprise, only giving a new view on what was discussed on providing clarity on a matter and never going against what another in his council had said. Having joined the Council as young as 17 he has grown to trust and respect the king like he did his father and brother. However recent events have caused that respect to turn into Mistrust and faint disrespect of the Prime Minister </div>"

Everyone was trying to either get to their jobs by pushing aside anyone who stood in their way, or trying to sell trinkets and ends by the street. Of course, that was the situation of the parts where money wasn't as abundant. Near the castle, and all the houses surrounding it, peace reigned. All of them were looking down on every other district of the city, almost laughing at them, saying 'You poor souls'. Of course, many felt like that, but many of them thought that what Donat was doing was righteous, that everyone would become richer than ever before with the expansion... Poor, poor souls, living in deception.

All around the city, several posters were hanging on the walls, just BEGGING for some attention. 

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">'Recruiting! Anyone interested in a job involving action, adventure, and many other things, feel free to come to the gate of the capital before tomorrow's afternoon! We will be waiting for you!

Though it was among many others, this paper in particular was quite flashy and eyecatching. Why? Well, firstly, because fo its color. Bright red, the kind you just can't forget once you see. Then, there was the illustration that came along with the text. A spider, a really big and dangerous looking one, a monster, most likely. And lastly, the one who posted this. Hazael, the well known Knight Lieutenant Commander. A single question came to mind, though, why would someone like her actually ask help of complete strangers, rather than the same military she was a part of? Definitely odd and off-putting for many, while others may just take the job without much thought. At the same time, a man passed by, with a cigarrette in his mouth.

<font color=""#fff200"">""Uwah, she really did it. What is that girl hoping to accomplish, gosh?""</font> The blonde sighed with exhasperation and brought his hand to his face. He seemed really irritated. <font color=""#fff200"">""Doesn't she trust us at all? We also got out pride as knight, you know. We barely need anyone else, besides, we are also going back to visit Uriah and Isabel after such a long time... I just hope her instinct is spot on, or I myself would thrash her around.""</font> Astarte, the youngest of the Triumvirate says, while slamming his fist on his open palm, before visibly losing his confidence. <font color=""#fff200"">""Yeah, right, as if that were possible.""</font> He sighed again, took the cigarrette off his mouth, tapped on it to make the ashes fall off and put it back into his mouth. <font color=""#fff200"">""Well, whatever suits her highness right, I guess.""</font> To be noted, Astarte was at that rebellious age. 

Still, what Astarte, and maybe several others too, didn't notice, are the small letters. The kind that you never read, because it is too much of a pain or otherwise, however, anyone who'd spare some of their time to read them, they'd find out that it is, in fact, lots of rubbish. Letters just put together at random. However, is that really so? In there, a message is hidden, between the waterfall of trash letters. Anyone with the issue at hand still floating over their head, would easily spot it.

This place was too good to be true. The bustling streets, the crowd of people; the pristine quarters of the nobility, the merchants loudly hawking wares and doing swift business in the trade districts, the knights in their shining armor marching here and yon on their showy patrols. New Torrea was a beacon upon a hill, thriving with business and life, happy and clean. Tsubasa wrinkled his nose beneath the white fur trim of his black hood.

It was due for a crash any day now.

The king had made this place prosperous, but now he was on his deathbed. The Prime Minister's new policies were expanding the kingdom, laying down foundations for enterprises that, in theory, would bring even more wealth and power to the land. But like herds of wild beasts, countries and peoples had a glass ceiling. At some point, the boundary would be crossed. Resources would dry up, a vacuum of power would bring bloodshed, the common people would suffer and the nobility would hide and pray while their magnificent mansions were stripped and looted and burned down around their ears.

Perfect for business.

The fluttering red paper caught Tsubasa's attention. He stopped to look it over. Hunting some sort of dangerous creature? Why would the knights be asking commoners to do that? And why with such a flashy flier? As he raised an eyebrow and leaned closer in curiosity, however, he caught the hidden text. He'd learned a little bit about codes and espionage in his line of work. After a few moments of thought, ignoring the occasional jostle of some city-goer against his shoulder, he thought he had it figured out.

Donat. That was the name of the Prime Minister, wasn't it? He smirked. Looks like the diving spiral is starting already.

Wordlessly touching the hilt of the sword hidden beneath his coat, the hooded man in black headed for the gates...</div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">New Torrea</span></span></span>

Yunan had been here before, to be more precise he had been here during last night as he entered the Kingdom late last night as his arrival had been delayed with several stops from bandits. It had been tricky but he had managed to fend them off and still arrive relatively on time considering his circumstances on the road. In the day the kingdom was sure busy considering the amount of bustling noise and activity that were going on. With this amount of activities there would be no doubt that he would find what he was looking for, as his eyes were wandering around searching for something... New Torrea was a place renowned for its technological advances and he had came here searching for an answer to his problems, but with the situation with the king and his mysterious illness doubt was placed in his mind. Yunan was doubtful that if a kingdom couldn't cure their own king, how could they have what he needed for his situation? 

He had sighed before looking around the bustling kingdom and into a general goods store where he was going to buy supplies when a red flyer had caught his eyes, he had taken a note of it to read it when he left. Inside the store he did his business and bought what he needed and a little bit along with a glass mirror. It was something unusual that caught his eye that made him want to buy it and so he did along with the supplies that he had gotten. Once he had exited the shop he remembered the red flyer that once again had caught his eyes and went on over to look at why such a flyer would call so much attention. 

Upon see the flyer the arachnid on it caught his attention before he eyes saw the jumbled up letters but decided to read the bigger majority first. After reading the recruitment part, his eyes wandered down to the jumbled letters and he began studying them wondering if they meant something. Which they obviously did or they wouldn't be here... most likely but either way it had taken him a good minute some pondering he discovered he was reading it the wrong way. Instead of <span class=""bb-i"">''Donat betrayed the kingdom''</span>, he had read the thing going backwards and was awfully embarrassed that he didn't notice sooner. However, he quickly got over that as the name of who had posted the flyer perked his interest, as it was Knight Lieutenant Commander or also known as Hazael. It would be interesting to finally meet the Knight Lieutenant Commander in person rather than hearing about her, so Yunan left the flyer and decided to wait for when the recruitment will start.</div>"

He carefully detangled himself from the strange parchment and exaimned its contents, it appeared to be a job request of some sort, ohhh action and adventure, and for some reason it had a jumble of text at the bottom, didn't make any sense to him so he threw it away. Bristlebane did love himself some action and adventure, unfortunatly it wasn't until tommorow.

 Alas, he contiuned his journey curious about the prospects the job offered, and on his way to a bar to play for some coins his 7th sense began tingiling and alerted him to the presence of magic, he wasn't sure how it worked yet but it had never failed before. Looking about he noticed the source attentivly looking at the very same annoyingly bright flyer he had just thrown away. Carefully Bristlebane subtly moved through the crowds of milling poeple and got a closer look. The man had a veeeeery shiny necklace, he wanted it. Bristlebane fake tripped putting his foot in front of the unknown persons and slamming into him. As they hopefully fell to the ground he would grab the mans necklace and rip it off while turning over landing with his back towards the stranger and stuffing the necklace into one of his many pockets.</div>"

His reputation had preceded him, not a strange thing to happen in cities such as these. As much as Salazar had wished anonymity, the exertion he would have had to endure to completely wipe his identity from the minds of the people would have put him in no state to travel for at least a year. Sighing gently and sitting up, allowing the naked lady that had been sharing his bed the night previous to gather up her underclothes and scamper from his sight, Salazar caught his reflection in the mirror. He had been wearing one of his favourite Masques the night previous, white hair and a thin scar that curled around his neck, and he watched it melt away. The flesh became less full and the returned to normal flesh. His hair suddenly shifted into brown and he was once again himself. He grinned, revelling too much in his power was something his teacher would quite often reprimand him for. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Well…She was pretty.</span>

“Quiet Grim…” 

<span class=""bb-i"">Oh you are so grumpy in the morning.</span>

“Because I always have to listen to some snide remark from you, dear teacher”

Salazar gave a short growl and dressed in his customary attire; shirt and tie, black pants and a well worn in jacket. He had to look presentable today…there was court to attend to.
---

Salazar strolled through the mingling nobles of the gathered court, a ball of some lesser noble attempting to gain favour from the stronger houses the vied for control of the merchants and land within the city. Salazar loved this game…he was a natural with his gifts. A simple riot of an aggressive emotion from one would incite a rambling argument, a quelling of fears could allow Salazar to illicit information from the tightest of lips. It was a help that Salazar could imitate the idea of consummate ladies’ man. Salazar gave short nods and curt smiles to the lords and ladies fulfilling their noblesse oblige. He felt nothing as he watched arguments cut down alliances in favour of more beneficial ones. He never really felt much when it came to the nobles…they were just secrets to be sold. He finally caught a conversation worth listening to. Shifting closer, he waited and listened.

“Did you hear?” a whispering voice peeled out.

“what?”

“It’s hidden in those red fliers getting thrown out?”

“The ‘monster hunting’ ones?”

“Yes, the ones posted by Hazael of the Triumvirate…Donat is a betrayer”

The gasps gave Salazar his sign to leave. Hazael…Salazar smiled and clenched his fist gently, a small blue bird coalescing from the energy in his fist “fly to Hazael of the Triumvirate, inform her that I will be joining whatever investigation she is planning.”

The bird nodded and shot into the air above the nobles, flying off to find its target.

“This will be fun…”

<span class=""bb-i"">I agree….</span></div>"

Dante was working on his forge, making trinkets and weapons for travelers who requested. It seemed awfully busier as of late, with Kingdown Expansion came the need for tools, and he had to deliver. He just returned a gun to a new customer, who needed the handle fixed. However, Dante took his time, disassembling it and examining how it worked, before fixing and returning it. The prospect of forging a gun was always so exciting! After wiping his brow, beaded with sweat from the heat and work, he noticed a poster on the wall, alarmingly red colored. ""Hm? What is this?"" he said, reading the big poster, then looking at the small writing. ""I'm afraid I can't decipher this just yet..."" Dante muttered, taking the poster and going inside to properly examine the small text. He left a sign that said, ""Out for lunch!"" although if someone looked enough, they could see his thin frame's shadow in a window, peering over something.</div>"

Bristlebane had definitely had taken Yunan by surprise however upon contact and pressure during mid-air a yellow barrier appeared that surrounded Yunan. It had knocked away the assailant considering what he was trying to do, which was obviously trying to knock Yunan over. However, It was obvious that it would take more than simply the body to take down Yunan. To Yunan the spell that surrounded him, was an automatic spell that Yunan had came up with that required only the assistance of his Golden Staff that he carried around, as people around who noticed the two could see the thing shimmering faintly as it was supply energy for the barrier before it had went transparent. It was obvious that the magical shield was still up, as now that his assailant at such close range could see the space was subtly warped around Yunan indicating the barrier.

Yunan's assailant had chosen the wrong person to steal from, however he decided that he would let them off easy... considering they haven't done anything bad, yet. So with his staff it gathered its energy taking its time before the staff shot down a tiny green orb into the ground right beneath the ground where Bristlebane was knocked back to. The green orb had grown vines from the feet of his assailant and had slowly crawled up from his feet and up to the top. The vine gave little resistance and was relatively easy to get out of it you had at least a little bit of strength, the rate of travel of the climbing vines were also slow giving Bristlebane more than enough time to escape. With him busy, Yunan waited to see what the man would do with his spell slowly entangling him.</div>"

Such brazen behavior towards a knight, let alone one of the Triumvirate, was something most would never dare. But then, few dared what Cassie dared. She puffed the pipe, letting a trail of smoke bleed out from her teeth as she cocked her head, the massive Howler Cannon strapped to her back clanking against the ammo bag. She smelled heavily of cordite, smoke, gun oil, and black powder. Odds are she'd just finished morning drills with her platoon, or maintenance on the Howler, or any number of things involving her beloved cannon. She spoke way too loudly, causing several passerby to give curious glances as her voice carried across the square.

""Goooood morning Sir Astarte. Isn't it a bit early to be getting worked up over your sister's little event? Actually, keep going. You're pretty freaking cute when you're ruffled.""

The bombardier's jackal grin widened as she gave a salute, still 'technically' following protocol. As a sapper, she was quite low in the military, after all. She took a long drag as she eyed the piece of paper, having already seen about 16 others around the city. You'd have to be deaf and blind to not pick up the hidden message that was so absolutely poorly hidden within the letters, or to hear the whispering from the citizens who had noticed it. While Cassie was most definitely deaf in her left ear from the Cannon, she was certainly not blind. Especially since the subject had been on her mind for days now. Still, it would be best to avoid bringing the subject up, especially around Hazael's brother. Her amber eyes flitted back to Astarte, the grin remaining as she puffed the pipe.

""I take it by the grumblings and threats of assault upon your sister that you will NOT be joining the event? You wouldn't happen to know anything about it? I'm curious myself.""</div>"

The bag on her back shuddered slightly in response to her growing disquiet. Chloe was not in a good position and she knew it. Her father, the retired knight commander Callahan Chevalier had just recently survived an assassination attempt by an unknown political faction. Well, that was what the letter that she had received had said anyway.

However she had her doubts as to how 'unknown' that faction truly was. If you knew who to ask there was always someone who could enlighten you, often for a price. It was no secret that her father, a fervent royalist was a staunch supporter of the king. He followed the code of chivalry almost to the letter and would lay down his life for his liege. And retired or not he had influence at court. And the loyalty of his men. That might have had something to do with it. But Chloe had been away for a long, long time. The political game had become a distant memory to her. It was a game she despised. And then there were the rumors.

The rumours were unsettling to say the least. The king was dying it was said and prime minister Donat had taken the reigns of state in his absence. Chloe didn't care about that. The power plays of nobility were of no interest to her. But if anyone of them had hurt her dad there would be hell to pay. They would find out how lethal a paper cut could be. Chloe stilled her breath for a few heartbeats to regain her composure and reasserted dominance over the contents of her bag. Her bag grew still and silent. She looked at the note in her hand one more time.

She didn't care too much about the message itself, only the name attached to it. Lieutenant Knight Commander Hazeal. Chloe had never met her but she vaguely recalled the name. Whoever she was Hazeal would provide her with answers. They might not be the answers that she wanted to hear but that was beside the point. But there was something else that she needed to do first. Chloe stepped out of the alley and strode over to the smithy across the way, its door was closed and a note announced lamely that the owner was out for lunch. Chloe knew that that was not true, she had watched the man enter only moments before. He had looked distracted. Or thoughtful. It hard to tell. She supposed he did not want to be disturbed. This had no bearing on her thought process however as she knocked loudly on the door. 

“I need you to make me something and I'm willing to pay double,” Chloe announced to the closed door as a single sheet of paper obediently found its way into her hand. It was a simple diagram with simple instructions. It showed a picture of rods made of reinforced steel. She had a thought. “I could read the poster for you if you want?”</div>"

Bristlebane to his surprise was rejected by the presence of some type of barrier and he fell to the ground, it seemed the mage was either incredibly observant or had passive defenses, since most mages were lazy most likely the latter. Then to his great fascination, vines began emitting from a green orb and started crawling up his legs and encasing his bod. He wondered how far they would creep before they stopped, a gentle and subtle tug informed him that he could get out if he wanted, but he decided against it and simply adjusted his hat and flipped the card in it to a jester of diamonds.

 He began conversation with the mage, ""Well hello there, my name is Bristlebane travelling Troubadour at your service, I do apologize for my misconduct one of THESE BUNDLING SCOUNDRELS bumped me ever so rudely into your defenses."" Bristlebane said blatantly lying to the mages face and showing no sign of it., then he paused and glanced at the vines again. ""By the way just how do these vines of yours work, do they grow by themselves or do you have to constantly use magic, can you control how they grow? Oh oh can you make a pillow and blanket out of them? I bet they would make an amazing sleeping place, and if you covered yourself with them you would be practically invisible."" Bristlebane spat out the questions in rapid fire. If there was a thing Bristlebane wanted to do more than anything else it was learn how to use magic.</div>"

She paused for a second as the thought occurred to her that that had not been the wisest of things to do in front of a stranger, not everyone reacted to magic in the same way. Sometimes it could go really badly. But usually, not so much. The poster coiled up and around her arm like a snake and wove its way into her backpack, disappearing inside with a rustle.

“It's a message, you know, sort of hidden in the words, it actually took me a little while myself,” she said humbly. Chloe leaned against the wall and looked sidelong at the smith. “It's an accusation, kinda, it's saying that your dear sweet prime minster has been a very naughty boy. I guess if that bothers you then you, I don't know, you could do something about it.” 

Chloe watched as he went about his work. Depending on how you looked at it what he was doing was no different than magic, he took an idea, shaped it in his mind and then made it real.

At another spot in the city, near a flower peddler and a cobbler there was a bulletin board type of wall, and across it were an array of job offers and other posters, plus one really obnoxiously red one near the center. Avon found himself giving these posters a good once-over, he needed a temporary job and was hoping to find something both fun and well-paying. Unfortunately those two usually don't come hand-in-hand, which usually meant he had to choose between them. Usually he would choose something that payed better, but now he was in the mood for something not existentially boorish. This was ok, though, because the obnoxiously red one had everything but boring all over it!

Now, Avon wasn't too great of a reader, not having used that skill in almost half a year unless it came to signs with one to two words on it. But he could work out the poster for the most part. It took him a few minutes and many re-readings but he finally got the words down. It was definitely a job offer, one that had everything you would find in the beginning of some story parents would tell their young. It had a cool symbol that was easy to remember, offered fun and adventure, and the person offering had authority! Now, our young man has never met Hazael, but he heard about her from his father. He really looked up to her, and would have had no problems making her and her men their equipment.

There was a bunch of gibberish at the bottom of the poster, Avon also gave that quite a look-over. But due to him only having rudimentary reading and writing skills in the first place he wasn't able to decipher it at all. It bothered him a bit, and gave him the motivation to refresh his readings skills and attempt to brush up, but he would eventually be ok with it. It didn't mean much to him, because planned on going to the gate for the meeting anyway. Hell, he could probably ask someone about it tomorrow and they'd be able to explain it to him.</div>"

The boy was surprised when his cigarrette was suddenly taken away from him. The one behind it was Cassie, a girl he had heard about before. He wasn't as low as her in the military, though, given that he was about just two ranks below his sister, and he was quite proud of being called Sub-Lieutenant. So much, that it went way over his head. And also, he didn't like being called cute. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""Cassie... May I ask what all this is about? Insubordination, perhaps? How dare you call someone in a higher rank than you 'freaking cute', huh!?""</font> Well, he wouldn't mind being talked to with such disrespect weren't it for the fact that she called him cute. Not manly at all, not at all, and it pissed him so much that he wasn't as manlier as his sister, even though she looked so frail and he looked sturdy and way taller than the average joe, so how in the seven hells was he 'cute'?!. He soon recovered his composure and cleared his throat. <font color=""#fff200"">""Of course, I'll take part of the 'job', as my siters calls it, though it is more of a 'mission', actually. And a family visit, actually.""</font>

He then grinned at Cassie's question. He knew some things about it, yes, though her sister was the one that knew all of the details because he couldn't be bothered by them. <font color=""#fff200"">""A monster, commonly known as 'Arachnoblaster', has appeared in the woods. Donat has asked us to eliminate it and bring its corpse back to study it. It seems it produces a strong kind of silk that can hardly be broken by even a sword, and it also is able to launch fire from its mouth. Quite an interesting catch, if you ask me.""</font> He says, laughing a bit. He was really looking forward to fighting it, after all, he barely got to fight any monsters lately.

Leaning against a wall, Hazael waited for anyone that actually came to her to talk about the job. The badly hidden secret message had probably scared everyone off. Her short, thin frame made her seem as any other regular civilian, maybe even someone that wasn't eating all that well, but the fact that she was also wearing designer made clothes made the thought of her being poor fly away. Maybe a metabolism problem? Anyhow, it was deifinitely offputting, however, the huge silver sword hanging from her back. A wonder how she could carry it around and not seem tired at all. 

She was about to resign and go back to her house when a bird approached her. She definitely recognized this magic, so she heard attentively. A message telling her someone would actually go to the job request. It made her happy and she nodded at the little illusory bird. Well, she might as well stay there for a bit more, before giving up all hope. Still, was the info she received from Nijiara accuarate? That Donat would stop being so passive... It really worried her, mostly by the fact that, how the hell did their mage of the court got a hold of such information?</div>"

Now then, to find the area where he was supposed to meet this Hazel person. He walked around for quite a bit, asked some directions, hit a few dead ends, and almost got mugged a couple of times(it didn't end well for the muggers), but he finally found where the meeting sight was, and by the looks of things so far, was the only one to have arrived so far. Walking over to the lady that seemed to be waiting for people, he held out the poster in front of him, a wide smile on his face as he did so.

Eventually she saw two people near a wall and one of them had one of the advertisements she had seen before.

<span class=""bb-i"">Looks like this is the place.</span>

However, Ralena had no intention of joining this group and only wanted to see what their plans were. She walked over to a building opposite of where Hazael was and sat down on a bench. Soon enough, Ralena would see who these people were and if they were true warriors or not.

Until then, Ralena pulled a small packet of papers from her pocket and began to do some reading. All the while, she was relatively observant of the area around her. The streets, people going in and out of the nearby buildings. The only place Ralena didn't have a good view of was the roof of the building directly behind her. The bench she was sitting on was right next to the building. Nonetheless, she flipped through some pages while waiting to see what would happen.</div>"

Moving through the bustle of the city slowed him significantly; by the time he got to the gates, there was already someone speaking to the well-dressed woman with an overly large blade who must have been the contact. The poster had said she was a knight commander or something of the sort, and despite her slight frame she did have the look about her of one who had seen a lot of combat. The sword at her back had been well used and well maintained. The other person talking to her looked to be a young man with a...somewhat disturbed look to him. Tsubasa slowed his gait by a half step, using the extra time as he walked towards them to analyze the area.

He took note of every entrance, every exit, every door to every building. Which street was most crowded, which was empty, which nook would hide him and which cranny would give him away. Someone was sitting on a bench, appearing to read. But their observation skills weren't half bad; he'd used that method himself a few times, and it required a great deal of subtlety. Competition...or perhaps, the news that he was being targeted had already reached Donat, and he had dispatched some of his own agents? Though his eyes were hidden beneath the rim of his hood and the white, puffy fur lining around it, Tsubasa kept the observer in the corner of his sight as he approached Hazael and Nex.

""'Scuse me. I'm here about that same flier."" he spoke up, loud enough for them both to hear him. ""I'm not that great at monster hunting...but I'm good at getting jobs done."" He looked meaningfully at Hazael. ""So, care to explain a little more about this job?""</div>"

It was early, Damon always awoke early. In actual fact he wasn't expected to be at his post for another two hours but he liked to be early and he didn't like the newest guard, a cocky young man who was good at his job but always seemed too relieved after a night shift. He stood up and got dressed, put on his armor and pulled the belt holding his sheath tight before trying it still. He looked at his appearance in a mirror and began heading down the stairs. His staff had already prepared breakfast and were just finishing the table placements. There were two, at the one end was his seat and at the far other was his mothers seat, but she almost never left her room after the death of Damon's Father and brother. ""I don't know why you insist on cooking a full breakfast you know I will never eat."" he sighed to his manservant, an old man named Keel, with a smile.

Damon had liked Keel as he had never changed, even after the death of his late master he remained sure in his duty and always going the extra mile for Damon to make sure the boy wanted for nothing. Keel had looked after him when he was young and never really stopped. ""Look, you and the staff enjoy a hearty breakfast, I will just have a slice of meat."" he said heading into the kitchen and doing exactly that before stepping out into the cool morning air. He felt like today would be a good day, that was until he saw the flier. 

He thought nothing of it until he read the fine print. '<span class=""bb-i"">What was she thinking!</span>' he thought '<span class=""bb-i"">If the Prime-minister hears of this then It will be civil war!</span>' he then allowed himself a cuss and muttered ""I had better confront her... before I'm forced to fight the kingdom to keep the king alive!"" with another muttered curse he gripped his sword tightly and set off to find the Knight Lieutenant Commander. The gates to the city would require a detour, more like he was going a great distance out of his way, but he still had time and this was big... ""Commoners messing with affairs of state never end well!"" he growled through gritted teeth as he set off from the peaceful of the nobility to the hustle and bustle of the city, not having time to get some of his men to accompany him.</div>"

“Is it?"" she replied as he commented on the design for the rods. She had never really considered the design to be anything special, but then again it was hardly her field of expertise. She let the comment about Donat slide though as she had no reason to talk against him either, not yet anyway. If he had machinations of power that was his business. Only once she talked with this Hazeal women would she make up her mind about the prime minister. She picked up a small hammer from a desk and turned it around in her hands experimentally. It was light and looked well used.

“A family reunion, I guess,” Chloe replied non-committally as she put the hammer back down where she had found it. She spun around to face the blacksmith as he worked and with her hands planted behind her waist she leaned toward him with a quizzical look on her face. “But an adventure huh? That's a pretty bold thing to do if you don't mind me saying so.” Whether he minded her asking or not was clearly not an issue for her. Chloe looked at him for a moment before looking at the contents of his workshop. “Are you any good with any of these?” she asked, indicating the products of his craft.</div>"

She considered adding Lieutenant Cutie, but opted instead to not push her luck just yet. Though it would be rather amusing to watch the knight explain why he punished Cassie for calling him cute. Astarte was known for being easy to push off the deep end, what with all his pride. Like a puffed up baby owl trying to swagger. Still, he DID outrank her, and was a skilled knight from what she overheard. She puffed the pipe again, then shifted the Howler across her shoulders with another jackal grin.

""Giant targets you say? Sounds like a perfect place for me. I guess I'll go meet the Knight Lieutenant and join the mission. See you there Lieutenant...""

As the bombardier turned around, she puffed the smoke through her grin, giving a wink to Astarte as she headed off towards the gate.

""...Cutie.""</div>"

Dante heard the girl wandering around behind him, examining some of his hammers. ""Well, an adventure feels like a nice change of scenery for me, in my opinion. Gets a bit stale with all of the work around here."" he said, setting one rod down and working on more. ""And to answer your question, yes. I used to be a swordsman before settling down as a blacksmith. Thought I'd give the trade a try. It's nice, forging weapons. I get to learn their material, how they work. I've even worked with some guns. And must I say, they are quite an interesting thing to look at. I do have a sword I use specifically, it should be in the chest under the table near you."" he said calmly, believing she wouldn't steal from him. ""It's sharper, smoother, and larger than most swords I've seen. Higher quality than just about any standard sword."" he said proudly, looking behind him to stare at her for a moment. ""So, are you going to go to this meeting?"" he asked, before turning around and getting back to work, sparks flying.</div>"

Gah... He could only repent on how embarrassing it how sounded, the fact that he mistook the charges he was accusing the girl of. He was about to try and come up with some retort when the girl decided to change the subject. Well, he was relieved to hear that change of subject, but what came next set his fuse off yet again. Being called cute was bad enough, but lieutenant cutie? He remembered his sister using the same nickname once, and it was most definitely horrible. What's more, hearing it from his sister was already bad enough, but hearing it from someone with a lower rank? Disgraceful, totally so. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""D-D-Don't call me that! I'll see to it that they hold your pay off for the next month!""</font> A baseless threat, given that his rank wasn't THAT big of a deal. <font color=""#fff200"">""And fuckin' wait for me, I'm goin' in the same direction!""</font> Astarte said, with a bit of an accent he had picked up during his infancy. He hurried behind the girl. It would have already been awkward enough to walk in the same direction and just everntually find each other, so he had hoped to make that feeling smaller while shouting at her. Though, he know felt like it had the opposite effect.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Hazael</div>

The place went from deserted to populated in a matter of seconds. Well, it made Hazael happy. Firstly, to answer the first one to arrive, she stood straight up and looked at him, eye to eye. While she was little, she could also easily intimidate anyone just with a look. It was more of a test than anything else, to see if they had what it takes. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Yep, that's me. It is HazAel, though. You lacking an A there.""</font> She said to Nex, with a big smile on her face. Still, she wondered whether the guy had read the secret message or not. Maybe he hadn't, maybe he did. It didn't matter. The fact that he seemed oddly familiar was definitely offputting, though.

Then, she turned to the man with bright red hair. <font color=""#82ca9d""><span class=""bb-i"">'Eyecatching'</span></font>, she thought. Aside from her, all of her family's hair colors were scattered all around and with some real strange tones. It was good to see someone with equally strange hair color out of her family. Reassuring that it didn't run only in her family. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Good, good! I was waiting for you all! Then, let me get into some details. We are going after this monster, an 'Arachnoblaster', is its name. Crap, barely bit my tongue.""</font> Hazael said, acting a bit more childish, before getting on with her explanation. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""It's skin is really durable, as well as the silk it produces. Guys over here want to do some research on it, see if we can implement what it does on our weaponry or armors. It should be pretty fun, though I'd take the thing up as many times needed if it only had less legs.""</font> Hazael said, trying to mask the fact that she was actually feeling disgusted by the mere thought of having to go against a giant spider. It was more disgust than fear, though. She was a woman, after all. 

Of course, the other one, observing everything from the sidelines, hadn't escaped her vigilant eye. Hazael merely winked at her and returned to the business at hand. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""So! The specifics of the job are 'go inside, beat the crap out of the crawling thing, bring back what's left', basically. Oh, it also can spit fire, so be warned about that. We leave tomorrow at afternoon, by the time we think no one else will be arriving. Since you are the first ones to come here, I wanna ask, what are your names? And...""</font> Her eyes turned sharp, trying not to miss a detail of anything they said. She had to fully analyze the answer of the next question, as it will give them up as supporters of Donat or otherwise. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""What made you think of accepting this job?""</font></div>"

He should of simply left when he had the chance but now he was listening to the other man's rambling on about questions on how his magic work and all of that, but he paid no attention and simply nodded to his questions. More or less it was true that everyone of them he could do, to a certain degree. 

However the nonstop question that the man was shooting out was indeed annoying and he had the chance now to escape... so he took up the opportunity and quickly left. The vines that entangled Bristlebane were good enough for the job to distract him for the moment to allow Yunan to escape with more time on his hand to disappear into the kingdom's bustling activity. After the incident, Yunan decided to lay low for the day, deciding that he didn't want to get into another scenario like what had happened earlier. With nothing besides a window, he gazed out the glass and watched the kingdom from afar wondering how long will this kind of commotion will last.</div>"

""Got it, Hazael, not Hazel. Nex will make sure to remember that. As for name, Nex doesn't remember, so Nex goes by Nex, I am Nex, Nex is me, Nex is Nex."" He giggled slightly, at a joke only he seemed to hear or understand. He took some time to fold up the flyer and stuff it into the cloak he was wearing. Underneath said cloak, Nex was wearing no shirt, some gauze wrappings around his arms that went from his hands down to his elbows, and some ragged black breeches that seemed to be falling apart at the seems. He also wore a thick, black belt, which seemed to have something attached to it, but it couldn't be seen due to the cloak hiding it from view.

""Nex came cause Nex was bored, Arachnoblaster sounds like fun. Oh,"" Nex turned around quickly to address the red headed stranger, taking a secind to look at the sword. He could ferk some kind of energy from it, meaning it must be enchanted, though what that might be was a mystery. Turning his eyes back up to the swords owner face, he smiled again.

""Glad to meet you, Red head, my na e is Nex, what is your name, and is it okay if I call you Red Head?"" Nex also wanted to say high to the lady on the bench, but she was trying to be sneaky, and it would be rude of him to point her out like that.</div>"

Someone else joined the two that were near the wall. Another male.

""That makes three so far,"" she said quietly, speaking into the air. She took a moment to look directly at the three people ahead and ended up making eye contact with one of them. She stared at the young woman for a few moments, before returning to her reading again. 

<span class=""bb-i"">I can't make out what they're saying, but it's too soon to move in. Who knows how many more may show up.</span>

A man began his way down the streets, pushing a fruit cart along the street. Ralena blinked for a moment, before standing and putting her reading material back in her pocket. She waved a hand to the man with the cart and jogged over to him.

""How much are two of these?"" she asked the man, looking at some of the fruit.

Eventually, she bit into a juicy fruit, while standing in the middle of the street. She looked at the small group near the wall and raised her arm, eventually letting the fruit fly towards the three people. She didn't aim at any of them in particular, but if no one moved it was sure to hit at least one of them.

The fruit was medium sized and had a soft, but firm texture on the outside.</div>"

Well, I wouldn't know about those,”</span> Chloe said jovially in response as she listened to him speak, though in truth she was quite serious. Her form of magic required her to possess a rather in depth knowledge of the shapes and properties of weapons. The more she knew the easier it was to create them through her magic. Swords were easy. Shields were even easier if you wanted something simple but strong. Guns though, guns were a weapon that she could not create with her magic. Too many moving parts for a start. She moved over to the table that he had indicated and knelt down before the chest and looked it over. She did not go to open it.

<span class=""bb-b"">“I will be, in a manner of speaking, though not without those rods~”</span> she said in an almost lyrical, singsong tone. <span class=""bb-b"">“I may need to use them before the day is out you see, depending on what the young lady knight has to say~”</span> The truth at the moment was that she had no idea what was going to happen when she got her answer. She might even need to use them on the lady herself, if it came to it. She looked at the blacksmiths back and stared at him for a moment as a thought occurred to her.

After noting the poster's information and pounding into his brain the location and time, he decided he would check it out a little bit early. He glanced at the poster before he left to see the gates, as much as he would've loved to take the poster himself so he could easily reference the information, that might have made it so others wouldn't know about it. And ruining other people's job opportunities wasn't something he was up for. So, after speaking the information aloud in order to get it down for sure, he meandered over towards the gate. 

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#aa8877"">' Wow, fuck. I hope they still have room for me. '</font></span> Not only did it look like there was a meeting about it today, but it was packed! If Avon had any other promising jobs he could've got, he would probably had just left. But his curiosity and trouble looking for work in the town made it so he would stay. The people around him didn't look all that untrustworthy, however handfull of them gave off some shady vibes. Not that it mattered, if there were this many people the job would most likely be a huge success. <font color=""#aa8877""><span class=""bb-i"">'It'd be as smooth as a lynchin'</span></font> was the wording he used when he thought about it. Well, with this many people though the money might be split into pretty small chunks, and the job offer never said it was going to pay <span class=""bb-i"">well</span>. As Avon drew closer, he was able to pick out who was Hazael, and what she was saying.

Instantly he felt like an idiot. <font color=""#aa8877""><span class=""bb-i"">Wow If I ain't the biggest dumbass in this crowd I would never find who is</span></font>. He had thought the spider was some company brand, or what symbol the group would be representing. Not what they were hunting! Oh well, at least no one knew that's what he thought it would be. He was also surprised at the job request itself. Now, Avon isn't, nor ever was too great of a monster hunter, but a job like this was one he was somewhat excited to go on. Helping scientists, killing baddies, getting payed, sounded like a honest job! So long as he wasn't expected to extort some old men after the job was done he was ready to go! After Hazael finished explaining the job, she asked for those present to introduce themselves. Avon decided on waiting a bit before throwing himself out there, people probably wouldn't want to hear about the wandering amateur gunsmith anyway.</div>"

It retreated slightly, stopping only to allow Nex to pull the fruit off of it, then it dispersed nothingness. Nex took a bite out of it, enjoying the taste of it, sweet yet tart at the same time. Nex walked over to the person who has thrown the fruit, his ever present smile still plastered on his face.

""You know it's not nice to throw things lady, people could get hurt. But now that you've stopped trying to be sneaky, Nex can ask you who you are.

He looked at her, dropping the final complete rod into the cloth he had set up next to the anvil, the rod clinking as it hit the others.

He put up the 'Gone for awhile' sign, and stepped out, shaking his cloak after grabbing his sword, the sharp blade at his waist. ""Anyways, I'm off about this adventure. Feel free to follow!"" He said, mimicking the sing-song voice and dashing off, using the same path he did when he first moved here, jumping off the side, landing on an old, steady roof, and running along it, jumping aside, not many bothering to look up, and he made his way to the gate, wanting to hear about the adventure.

Cassie backed off on the teasing, slowing her pace to let the young man take the lead. While she was fully willing to fluster and annoy, she wasn't willing to ACTUALLY undermine a superior officer's pride and authority in public. Despite her attitude, she was a soldier, and a good one at that. Plus, Astarte seemed surprisingly innocent and full of idealism. She didn't have the heart to crush that. At the mention of her wages, however, her thoughts turned to Donat as she puffed her pipe quietly. Expansion of the empire would cripple, rather than bring power. The other nations wouldn't just stand around and let themselves be pushed back. They'd fight. The grand dream of a mighty empire would fracture. Internal power struggles, the poor get trampled, civil war, suppression...Cassie's mind flicked back and forth. Not so much on the potential war, not even on whether or not the nation would survive...but on which side she'd find herself. On one hand, she disagreed heavily with the idea of expansionism. The other nations were allies, there was peace. Living in poverty had let the bombardier learn many things, the least of which being that no matter what's happening, it's the weak and poor who suffer for the strong and rich.

But on the other hand, her family relied on her own military wages to stay above the water. If she opposed Donat openly, assuming she wasn't executed on the spot, she'd be discharged from the military. Her family would crumble. A matter of pride and principal versus family and necessity. She had time to decide. She would see what the Knight Lieutenant was planning. It could be a ruse to sniff out those who opposed Donat and kill them. See how things go. Make a decision then. For now, focus on the fact that she'd got to unload her Howler into a living monster, instead of another damn training dummy. The thought filled her with glee as she adjusted the straps to her massive harness, already measuring the charges in her head. Judging by the name and the mention of silk, this thing was a spider of some sort. Hard shell. Squishy interiors. She couldn't help herself at the thought of seeing gore filled explosions from each shot she'd let loose. Puncture slugs would do amazing things to such a beast.

""Don't suppose we'll be getting paid for this hunt sir? I could use some extra money, and I AM using my personal powders for this. The stuff the treasury springs for just doesn't have the oomph or the flare that makes every shot so damn beautiful. Gotta tinker a bit to give it that extra burn.""

She bit her lip, picking up the pace to match Astarte's as they neared the gate. Looked like quite the crowd had gathered actually. She wiped at her monocle, adjusting the cravat on her coat and cracking her knuckles happily, the massive Howler Cannon dwarfing just about everyone in attendance.</div>"

The images, sounds and shapes that the illusion had seen and heard flooded violently into his  mind. The process was always a little painful as images ripped into his head and allocated their positions in his internal timeline. The bird chirped gently before blinking out of existence. Salazar folded his arms and closed his eyes slowly. This was another painful part of altering a minds, travelling through them. His body blinked out of existence in the court and shortly materialized in the middle of the group that had gathered.

""Hello everyone"" he spun around, taking in the faces that surrounded him ""well isn't this a quaint meeting"" he smiled and bowed gently, the last of the residual blue energy his magic created flicking off him like ethereal flames. He turned to Hazael and smiled ""A pleasure as always, Hazael"" he clasped her hand and pressed the back of her hand to his lips before looking back towards the others ""Salazar Theroux, a pleasure to meet you all"" his eyes flicked up to the massive cannon and knew that meant one thing.

She looked at the male, before her expression brightened in marvel. ""Wow! That was amazing! How did you do that?"" 

She continued the bright expression for a moment, before her expression went to its true, annoyed state, looking toward the others that were some several paces away. It seemed another person was there now. <span class=""bb-i"">That's four.</span>

After he had finished it, core and all, he just smiled and turned to walk away. He didn't say a word, simply walked away in search of something else to entertain him. He was surprised as a large amount of people had arrived, one in particular drawing his attention, or more specifically, what was on her back. He quickly zipped over to her, barely noticing the blonde man by her side as he stopped in front of her, bouncing on his feet and clapping his hands together, eyes wide with wonder and excitement.

""Awesome, is that a cannon? Are you going to come help us? COOOOOOOOOOOOOL, your going to make the spider go 'BOOOOOOOOM' and splatter evrywhere in burning chunks and it'll be amazing! Can I touch, can I hold it, can I have it, I really want one. Wait, neve mind, just let me hold, all I need to do is hold it Where did you get it, tell me where, please, please, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaasssse?!?!"" As he was jumping in place with excitement, Nex began to shapeshift unconsciously with each bounce, alternating between his original form, one of a small girl with blonde hair, a strange bipedal lizard creature with blue scales, another girl, this one much older and very voluptious, then starting all over again.

""Oh, my name is Nex, Nex is me, I am Nex, what is your name?"" Nex asked, remembering his manners at the last second.

The lady knight seemed to completely miss his meaning. Or, if she had responded to it...he couldn't quite decipher it through the spiel about the monster. Was this mission just going to be some kind of test, to collect capable fighters? 

'Nex' asked if he could give him a nickname. Tsubasa showed his teeth in an angry grimace.

""No."" he said simply. Quite frankly he thought the other fellow was insane. From his ragged clothes and general attitude, he must have been some kind of simpleton. What on earth had possessed him to try his hand at hunting monsters?

Then people started crawling out of the woodwork. Tsubasa was hard pressed to analyze them all, his eyes darting back and forth rapidly. He stepped just far enough back to let that flying fruit the observant woman threw at them go past him--but it turned out he needn't have bothered, as Nex unleashed some sort of black magic in broad daylight. A mage? How could someone so seemingly mental have abilities like that?

And he wasn't the only one. Another man materialized in a flash of blue fire, almost prompting Tsubasa to draw his sword. If he hadn't had so much to react to already slowing down his thought process, he would have likely cut the man in half. As it was, he managed to stop himself before his blade had cleared an inch from the sheath. Finally, the assassin gave a groan and crossed his arms. 

""It looks like you've got more than enough volunteers."" he said to Hazael. ""As this isn't my specialty, I'll withdraw for the moment. If you have another job that requires more...subtle skills, I'll be staying at the Dragonclaw Inn for a while. Ask for Kojiro."" That was the fake name he was using at the moment, though he doubted the woman had any way of knowing that. He also had doubts as to whether she was going to see what he actually meant. As he turned and began to walk away, he sighed. If these people wanted Donat dead they were going to have to learn how to be discreet about it--and how to listen when people were being discreet to them.</div>"

He should of simply left when he had the chance but now he was listening to the other man's rambling on about questions on how his magic work and all of that, but he paid no attention and simply nodded to his questions. More or less it was true that everyone of them he could do, to a certain degree. 

However the nonstop question that the man was shooting out was indeed annoying and he had the chance now to escape... so he took up the opportunity and quickly left. The vines that entangled Bristlebane were good enough for the job to distract him for the moment to allow Yunan to escape with more time on his hand to disappear into the kingdom's bustling activity. After the incident, Yunan decided to lay low for the day, deciding that he didn't want to get into another scenario like what had happened earlier. With nothing besides a window, he gazed out the glass and watched the kingdom from afar wondering how long will this kind of commotion will last.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/pie-flavor"">@Pie Flavor</a></footer></blockquote>

Bristlebane was still shooting off questions when Yauan began to make good his escape, not going to let his prey escape that easily Bristlebane yanked his legs out of the vines and used the momentum to spring himself to his feet and quickly began chasing after the man. Unfortunately the man quickly vanished into the crowds and Bristlebane lost sight of him. He looked around frustrated, he seemed his quarry had eluded him... for now, but if he saw the man again he would sure that he wouldn't escape so easily. He never even learned his name. Finally he gave up and wandered around looking for the meeting spot for the adventure or whatever, he ended up stumbling into a small square that had a lot amount of armed people. Bristlebane happened to come towards the end of a conversation, ""Boom?"" he said both questioning and hopefully. He liked explosions almost as much as he liked magic.</div>"

Astarte just loved hearing someone calling him 'Sir', and someone who looked older than him at that. Ah, what a life was the military. Made him wonder why he didn't join earlier. Right, them trying to either cut their necks or get coin they didn't even have. He shook his head. He was turning into what he initially hated. It felt good, but bad at the same time. Turning into that... He most definitely didn't want that, given that they hurt his sister some times before.... He reached a conclusion. He spoke up, his ears getting red because of his embarrassment.

<font color=""#fff200"">""Drop the sir. Makes me feel like some kind of pompous idiot, and don't worry about the pay. Sis is funding this on her own... She somehow didn't want any kind of support from Donat. She's weird like that at times.""</font> Many would question the actions of their sister, but not Astarte. He was flustered before because he felt that the three of them, his sister, his brother, Kendrick, and him, were enough to dispatch the thing, but since it seemed his sister didn't think like that, he'd just go with it. His trust for his sister was blind, after all. 

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Ah! Assie! Over here! We are here!""</font> After Hazael spotted his baby brother, she started shouting and waving at him, and Astarte wished she'd stop calling him that. He quickly hid the cigarrette he was smoking, so as to not let his sister get on on what she was doing, but her piercing gaze was already on him. Well, he was sure to be scolded later. He wasn't at the legal age for smoking, after all, and he had just picked on the habit because he thought it looked badass. More and more people had gathered around her, but Hazael didn't really mind after she saw his brother, mostly ignoring everyone else. She turned back and cleared her throat before addressing everyone's issues. Some of the guys around her seemed to already be making friends. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Great, great! It's always good to get to know each other, even if it is just for one job! Trust is indispensible in any kind of job, after all.""</font>

After arriving to the group of people, Astarte put himself besides his sister, and Hazael herself chatted a bit with Salazar. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Salazar, great to see you here. I'm pretty sure you are here because of THAT, right?""</font> Hazael knew the guy was a politician of sorts, but she wasn't sure whether he had received the info from Theana or not. She'd just say nothing for now. Which side he was on was unimportant right now, she'd strike him down regardless if he opposed them. 

Meanwhile, Astarte introduced himself to the group. <font color=""#fff200"">""All right, people, I am Astarte Michaellis. The Defense of the Triumvirate, if you want too. We gathered you lot here to go on a hunting job necessary for the kingdom. We are hunting for an Arachnoblaster, I don't know how many of you know the specifics, but we are basically after its hard skin and durable silk. The type is an arthropod. It can spit fire out of its mouth, though it isn't venomous. We expect it to be alone, as it is a monster native of Nijiara that slipped by the border. It has been causing a bit of problems, but my sister here is the one who-""</font>
<font color=""#82ca9d"">""You should really stop right now, Assie. You'll bore them to death before we actually get to the monster.""</font> Hazael said, giggling a bit. It seemed Kojiro had gotten fed up too with what was going on and was about to leave. Well, she actually got what he was trying to say, but she was trying to not be direct to, well, protect her ass, to be honest. The walls have ears, but now, with her brother by her side, she felt safer. It was something good that her other brother, with whom she had already discussed things with, was up in a roof, holding a bow and ready to snipe anyone suspicious. <font color=""#82ca9d""><span class=""bb-i"">'Well, time to drop the bomb, I guess'</span></font>
<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Ah, all right, enough with the secretism. Anyone who saw that flier probably knows what's going on by now. That, or you couldn't care less about things like this. The Arachnoblaster part is true, we head out tomorrow to kill it. However, that monster is actually supposed to reach New Torrea <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">alive</span></span>.""</font> Not many would get what she said. Some may dismiss her as being paranoid, but it was most certainly real. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""The thing is, if that monster gets to here alive, it'll trash everything around. It is being led around by a mage, so it should be alone. I fear that the mage leading it here is Klomos... Unfortunately for us, it seems our mage of the court has also turned against us. The moment it arrives here, a coup d'etat will take place. This information comes from Nijiara's Mage of the Court, Theana, and it is uncertain whether it is true or not. But... what other option do we have but believing it?""</font> All that Hazael just said, would weigh heavily and all of those there. Heck, she was saying a coup d'etat was about to happen. Astarte himself couldn't believe what he was hearing, and just stood there with his mouth open. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""I won't ask you to stay just because you've heard this. You can even turn around and go tell Donat I'm aware of what he is scheming, but one thing is sure, though. If we don't do anything, the king will be murdered, maybe also the princess, and we will be at Donat's mercy, and his idiotic plans for an expansion. I'm sure that anyone with half a brain here knows that it is the most stupid thing ever.""</font> 

She delivered her heavy words to the group before her. Whether they chose to believe or not was all up to them.</div>"

Forget learning discrepancy, she'd just murdered it in cold blood and broad daylight. Before he got a single step away from the group, Hazael dropped all pretenses and simply stated her plans to incite a complete and total civil war. Tsubasa sighed, looking up at the sky as if praying for patience, his hood finally dropping away to reveal his red hair in its true intensity, and his cold, narrow gaze that he now turned back upon the female knight.

""You know what? Okay. Sure. I'll just go ahead and be crazy too."" he muttered, before stepping back to the woman. ""Look, if you want the whole root of this problem dead, for high ranking politicians my rate is two hundred thousand before expenses, half up front.

Damon heard her telling them that she was planning on acting against Donat and picked up his pace. While Damon was no friend of Donat he was also no friend people telling the world they planned to betray him, since he knew any real threat to Donat would force his hand and his men would be fighting most the Kingdoms armies alone. He began to ease his pace as he reached the group, jogging past the people on the outside and walking to Hazael herself. ""Are you MAD!"" he said when he arrived, breathing deeply from the frantic sprint down once he heard what she was saying. ""Do you want.."" he stopped, taking a deep breath ""Knight Lieutenant Commander, if anyone breaths a word of this in the palace then the king wont last two minutes!"" he took another breath, an uncertain look in his eyes ""I should lock you up right now, to stop this getting out of hand..."" then he shook his head, the hand clutching his sword hilt dropped, then rose to meet Damon's forehead ""But.. I wont. If what you say is true I guess I can.. double the guard and.. and then what?!"" His hand dropped down again and he vaguely saluted, he may not follow the normal military ranks but he WAS a soldier, even if she would be more likely to salute him then the other way around. ""I suppose I am yours to command, if what you say is true and this is going to happen then what's the kings guard going to do against Donat and his pawns?""</div>"

Guess she touched a nerve. As the siblings began to act all sibling-like with each other, a shapeshifting mage became extremely excited over her cannon. While the constant shifting would probably be slightly jarring, Cassie grew up in the land of the mages. This sort of stuff was too common to really bat an eye at, even if the mages seemed to think everything they did was some grand display of amazing power. She grinned, putting one gloved hand on the boy's...girl's...thing's head with a ruffle.

""It is a cannon, it's the Howler in fact. You can touch it, but as for getting one, you'll need to spend a small fortune. I don't know many gunsmiths who still make them that don't belong to the military.""

She gave a wink with another hyena grin.

""I've modified it to Hell and back. Military grade is fine for small jobs but if you want something done right, gotta customize. Won't find another like it. But it should make that spider explode like a big slime-filled bubble. Boom!""

She gave a short bow of sorts, adjusting her monocle as the mage said it's name.

""Wonderful to meet you Nex, I'm Cassie. And if you like explosions as much as I do, we'll get along famously.""

Then she heard Hazael openly announce her plans. And the resulting reactions. She tapped her chin for a moment. Cassie wasn't the sharpest sword in the armory, but even she could see the flaw of just about every plan that was just announced. Years of working on bringing large scale problems down had taught her to look for smaller details that most would miss. She looked around, relieved to see that the gate was MOSTLY deserted except by some civilians who weren't particularly interested in a large group of military people.

""Okay, step by step I'm seeing some flaws here. First off, Knight Lieutenant, though honestly openly admitting to rebellion sort of removes your rank, as our happy Lord Captain here has stated, you may have already gotten the royal family killed by announcing your intention. If the Minister, and I'm only saying this as a for instance, heard of your intents and was indeed guilty, then there's no reason to hold off on his plan until the Arachnoblast arrives, but rather speed it up to prevent our intervention.""

She made a slight bob over to Bristlebane with a grin.

""Which relies on us killing the monster to avoid it being used as a living siege weapon, oh I like that, can I be referred to like that? But yes, I do believe we are going to go kill a giant spider.""

She then focused on the assassin with an ego.

""And let's, again just for fun, pretend you DID manage to bring down the target, as every member of your occupation claims they're the best and I'm sure you're no exception, so an entire castle of guards, mages, and people trained from youth to stop your kind clearly makes nooooo difference. Then what? There's now an entire nation with no leader, fired up over expansionist ideals, and someone with less subtlety than the Minister takes control and makes the situation worse. Or someone who supports the current way of doing things takes over and does an inquisition to find MORE traitors. Or you fail, you're head is piked, and he once again speeds up his plan since he knows he's been outed. You're asking for a lot of money for a bad outcome either way.""

She slid the cannon off her shoulders, letting it thud into the ground as she leaned on it, eyeing everyone from behind her monocle.

""Now, doubling the guard doesn't make sense either. Doing so would make the Minister suspicious of why you're doing it. How many of your guard support Donat and how many oppose him? You could just make things worse. You're all shooting at the wall, hoping to break it down, when you need to hit all the foundations at once. If you're goal is to stop a coup, you need to make them unable to move forward but unable to pull back. Or at the very least, force them to start from a weakened position.""

She pointed at the assassin.

""A fake attempt on Donat's life, not to kill him, but to let him think something unrelated to his plan was at play. You could stage a fight with the Lord Captain here pretty easily, which leads to...""

Her finger draped over to the Lord Captain.

""Doubling the guard due to this assassin's attempt on his life. Hand choose a select few for duty around the royal family, only ones you KNOW don't support the minister's current plan. No one will question why they have extra protection, and will assume you just picked your elites to do so.""

Her finger rested at Hazael's direction.

""Kill the Arachnoblast, as he can't announce that the beast is supposed to arrive alive. He needs it as a surprise. An open conflict with just his supporters could probably go either way, that thing is his trump card. You have orders to kill it. It wouldn't be hard to say the battle became too heated and the body was destroyed in the process. Along with the mage controlling it, who remarkably, had a contract on his body for the assassination of the Minister.""

The folded her hands under her chin, tipping the cannon slightly as she grinned.

""Stop the beast. Double the guard. Avoid a power vacuum. In theory, this would hold Donat in place until he finds a new card to play for an advantage. Or, if he makes a move with limited support, the royal family is surrounded by loyalists who get them out of the city, and your coup begins anyway. His power struggle begins with less resources and ahead of his schedule, putting him in a weaker position. No matter what you do, people are going to get hurt and people are going to die. Mostly the innocents. But as I said, this is all just a for instance.""</div>"

""Do I look like I care? No, really, look at my face."" Tsubasa glared at the woman, a snarl on his lips and malice in his eyes. ""She wants somebody dead. I want money. I kill the guy, I get the money, win-win. Obstacles? Don't care. Power vacuum? Don't care. Whether you, the rest of these people, the poor, the rich, the good, the evil, the starving babies, toothless grandmas, anyone at all lives or dies? Do. Not. Care."" He turned back to Hazael. ""You're the only one with something to say I DO care about, namely being, are you willing to pay or not? If not, I'll just leave town and find somewhere my services would be more acceptable. Or maybe, when your little coup d'etat goes horribly awry due to the collective incompetence of this bunch of know-nothings, Donat will put some bounties out, and I'll get my money THAT way.""</div>"

Damon was getting pretty annoyed at this point. ""Suddenly this army grunt is a master strategist?"" he said over his shoulder with a hint of spite in his voice. ""I could probably double the guards without any notice as it stands. Its not like they in the council consider me at all, other then as a nuisance..."" he muttered the last part ""My point, little miss gun!, is that I don't have enough guards to fight off the kingdom, I doubt my men could take on even the city guard, despite their skill, the numbers are simply not in my favor."" With this he spat at his feet, in her direction, muttering ""I will not have a commoner with no rank order me about!"" before saying, in a more audible voice, ""Why don't we listen to the Knight Lieutenant, who has earned her high rank, sometimes there is not time for such subtleties. I'm sure she have thought deeply about this."" At this point he finally turned the face the insolent soldier and looked her square in the eyes, his body tensing. ""I just want you to know, if you plan on undermining authority then we will achieve nothing. As a soldier you should surely know the importance of order, discipline and rank, even if you, madam, appear to have none of those a fore mentioned mentioned skill sets."" Damon was painfully aware that his aggression and displeasure was clearly visible but he was also aware, more so, that what was at stake was the lives of all those before him, the leader he respects so thoroughly and the future of the entire kingdom. No rebellious child would put them at jeopardy, he may not be able to command the city guard but, for now at least, he still had authority among them and would not hesitate to arrest the girl, anyone, even the Lieutenant if he thought it would protect his trusted friend and the kingdom he served.</div>"

Dante the blacksmith did good work. She placed the rod back with its fellows and wrapped them loosely within a cloth cover. Her 'art' was performed through the medium of paper, that was the nature of her magic and only paper was susceptible to her will. Though that might sound limiting and perhaps to some extent was from a non magi point of view it had its benefits as well. Focus being one of them. The steel rods had no impact on her magic directly but would serve their purpose in the right situation. She took the bag from her back and carefully placed the rods in amongst the stacks of paper. It was starting to get heavy.

Chloe turned and took one last look at the workshop, taking a moment to contemplate the impetuousness of its owner. There was chance he would never see this place again. She smiled softly to herself. She had promised him twice the usual rate of coin for the work and in a sudden fit of enthusiasm he had neglected any payment save for the reading of a letter and a conversation. It could be that that was all he was looking for. The determined look on his face suggested as much. It had been a good expression. Chloe stifled a hearty laugh and made in the same direction but with much less haste then the blacksmith turned adventurer.

After following Dante for only a short distance she turned into a side alley, cautiously checking the opening behind her for sign of pursuit. Finding none she looked up the edge of the rooftops above. Far too high to jump and climbing was not her forte. Both facts were irrelevant of course. She grinned to herself as a storm of paper erupted from her backpack and swirled and twisted around her, writhing like a tornado. In a coordinated flurry of motion a portion of its mass fell upon her. Within moments she was covered from head to foot in long hooded coat of white, made from individual sheets of paper. The flexibility of the paper bent to her will, so it was an easy enough trick.

She reached into her backpack, which somehow remained above her new coat and pulled a stick of bread free, taking a large, satisfying bite. Magic was energy. In her case energy she generated much of it within herself, so there was a cost to be paid for its use. Magic was about balance after all. The still swirling mass of paper coalesced into a mass beneath her feet that exploded upward, propelling her onto the rooftops. 

Chloe made her way to the meeting point more of less in a straight line, her paper rushing ahead to form bridges between the rooftops before returning to trail along with her. Sure it drew plenty of attention, but it would have required a very specific skill set to have followed her. When she arrived at the meeting place she could hear voices, though she could see no one as she was still on the rooftop. She was not a stealthy mover so it all likelihood her presence was already known. Despite the breeze her coat remained perfectly still as she listened in. Rebellion was in the air.</div>"

His head was pounding as yesterday had mysterious disappeared and slipped trough his hand like grains of sand. He remembered bits and pieces of what happened yesterday, however after reaching his room yesterday and right now, he didn't remember much. His eyes wondered around to where he was and recognized some faces... yes he remembered now where he was. The red flyer that he had read yesterday had lead him to this group meeting today to kill a Arachnoblast.. well until that Hazael girl said to capture it alive? It was a silly idea but he went along with the majority of it until the Donat part.

And then there was light- not, as the one of the other readers of the flyer left about some sort of assassination attempted in short. He wasn't understanding anything at the moment, it seemed like this meeting was to discuss both about something a civil war now. In all honest it wasn't interesting for what Yunan had in mind... And then there was another person talking about a plan to delay this civil war and trying to stall Donat... It was all too confusing for what Yunan had in his mind, that he was trying to remember. Guessing that he meeting was over, he decided to leave again and find a nice cool and relaxing place for him to remember. So before he left he asked a simple question: 

""Are we going to meet again, or we are gonna start the trip here? If we're meeting again, where are we meeting?"" He asked while leaning on the wall, feeling sick to his stomach now. It must of been the heat or something as, he began sweating a bit and it was definitely not a good thing.

Dante soon reached the meeting place, seeing it was full of people. ""Whoa..."" he murmured, stepping around. ""Oh, is that Hazeal?"" he pondered aloud.

He saw a lady with a HUGE gun and stared for a moment, admiring the fine craftsmanship, and surveying other people. ""Geez, there's a lot of weird things going on..."" he muttered, jogging over to Hazeal and giving a quick bow. ""Ah, nice to get here and meet you. I would like to help with the mission...

Cassie grinned at both men. Adorable. She figured her plan would be met with this reaction. Greed and pride were just a few traits men who think they have power were prone to. She remained grinning, eyes flitting to Hazael. The assassin was just that, an assassin. Trying to show how little he cared, for coin. Too easy to manipulate, too easy to remove from the picture, since anyone with nothing to prove would have just stayed quiet. The Captain...well, depending on how things went, he wouldn't have any authority or power over her soon enough. Still, his pride was showing. A lot. She understood his position though. But now that she'd seen his reaction, she knew how to better handle him. She watched the Knight Lieutenant instead, jackal grin wide. Her intent was what would matter. Despite all this, Cassie hadn't made up her mind on whether or not she would remain with the military or join this coup. Judging by the gathering...it'd be way easier to just side with the Minister, report them all, and watch them burn.

But it wouldn't necessarily be right...she hated having problems she couldn't just shoot aside.</div>"

Everyone was starting to talk strategy and Avon could barely follow along. Also, tons of these guys had military background? And what was this about being subtle about stuff? Avon was never able to decode the 'secret message' in the poster due to his rusty reading skills, so some of this 'subtle' stuff was flying over his head. He was rather slow, plus the fact he wasn't expecting this talk was throwing him way off as well. But whatever, he was ok with this. As they continued to dabble in their militaristic talks, he did his best to follow along.

However it looked like some Pirate-looking chick was going to do the summarizing for him, while also trying to talk to everyone at once? Whatever, he listened to the best of his abilities and tried to play catch-up. Well first of all, she was openly talking about rebellion? Avon was quickly getting more and more confused, as far as he knew this was supposed to be some spider-hunt. She went on about how the royal family might as well already be dead, and that if the minister heard about this they should have to hurry up. Now that Avon agreed with, from what he had heard about from his father the minister sounded pretty prone to solving uprisings with quick and violent strikes. 

Avon moved in closer to the girl to make listening a little easier, she then went on to talk to someone who Avon had never seen. This was something he had a lot more trouble following, mostly because he had no idea who the person was. Occupation? <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#aa8877"">What the fuck does he even do?</font></span> Target? Was this some sort of assassin? Who was she referring too? However, after she talked about the results Avon started to understand a bit more. So she was talking about killing the minister. Some of the after-effects sounded somewhat extreme, but then again, Avon didn't know much about leadership or history, so maybe she was right? However he doubted someone who might do such things was that closer to leadership. But his knowledge of the power structure was also only as great as his knowledge of being a leader, which again, was close to none.  And the lady kept going...and going...and going. He had trouble following along and started to drift off a little bit, not to sleep, but into other's conversations.</div>"

""I have no idea what anything you just said means, but I think that Red Head and the Grumy guy are just jealous cause their ideas suck."" Nex said, cause in his mind, the longer it took to explain something, the better the plan. Cassie's explanation had been really long, so she must have thought it out a lot better than the other two have, right? ""Also, if you need something killed, than Nex can do it, as Nex said, he's good at hunting monsters. People, like these bandits Nex met one time, are really easy, and so fragile too. Just a little bit of pressure in the right place and they pop like balloons."" Nex giggled at the thought, remembering one time where he had done just that. It had been really funny. 

""Oh, but don't worry, your all my friends and I'd never kill my friends, not ever, never. I swear."" Nex made a salute, before falling over giggling again, unable to get the imagine of that man popping out of his head, it had just been to funny. Nex wondered if he should show somebody, deciding that if any asked, he would, then they could all laugh about it later. Nex stopped giggling as he looked up, hearing the sounds of ruffling paper, and a lot of it. He quickly got up and scaled a near by building, using his tendrils to help him up. Once he got to the roof, he saw a red haired woman their, and she was making paper fly around. Nex's eyes were as big as saucers, and he immediately zipped over to her, unable to take his eyes off the papers.

""Wow, this is awesome, like really awesome, is this a type of magic, where did you learn it, can you teach me, please, please,please?!?!?!"" Nex was on his knees, looking up at the lady with a puppt dog expression. This magic looked so cool, he wanted to learn, now, now, now, now!!!!

""Yeah blowing stuff up, tell me when we do something fun."" he said to the cool living siege weapon, Then he quickly followed the creepy cool shadow it guy/girl up swinging the building using the sign and landing on the top almost the same time Nex did. ""Hey you can't team him how to and not me, teach me tooooooo!"" he said eagerly. Think of what he could do what paper magic.

With a grin, she continued to listen to the ongoing conversation.</div>"

Within the space of a few heartbeats another magi had scaled the wall using some dark energy. At roughly the same moment another person had scaled the wall with the ease of a monkey and now stood off to her other side. As attacks came it was most...unsettling. The magi had almost immediately prostrated himself before her. Which is not usually how this kind of thing went. The monkey joined in almost at once, as if in competition. <span class=""bb-b"">“E-excuse me?”</span> she managed, her brow twitching as she struggled to comprehend the situation.

She looked down below and saw a reassuringly familiar face and reacted by using another exploding column of paper to propel herself into the air and away from her two newest...admirers? Her coat dissolved and rushed ahead of her, creating a cushion that softened her fall by catching her before reforming into her white paper coat. Chloe slipped behind Dante. <span class=""bb-b"">“Remember when I asked if you could use what you make?”</span> she half whispered to him meaningfully as she stared up thoughtfully at the dark magic user for just a moment. She turned her gaze and looked at the ensemble that had assembled. Knights, soldiers, mercenaries? A dark mage. A monkey in human form.

<span class=""bb-b"">“Admirers aside,”</span> she said as she drew her attention toward the one she assumed to be Hazael. She looked meaningfully at the woman and made a show of curtseying to the knight. <span class=""bb-b"">“Chloe Magnolia Chevalier, here to join your little....rebellion?”</span> she said as she looked at the multitude of faces. It was obvious that not everyone here was in agreement. That could prove...useful. <span class=""bb-b"">“It is a nice day for it, after all.”</span></div>"

Dante pivoted around on one foot when he heard a rustling sound, and was greeted by Chloe... falling from the sky? Suddenly, before she hit the ground, her cloak turned into paper? And it softened her landing, allowing her to make a graceful decent into the ranks, before she got to him. ""Whoa! What's up with that!?"" he asked, amazed and curious about her magic, or skill. ""What type of magic is that? I've never heard about it."" Dante asked, quite curious about it. ""Remember when I asked if you could use what you make?"" Chloe asked, in a whisper and seemingly worried about something. ""Yea, I can use swords, even pistols, if I get my hands on them."" he whispered back, putting a hand on the almost invisible sword hilt in his cloak, the blade hidden behind his cloak as well. ""It's the special blade I made for myself."" he told her, grinning.</div>"

'Maybe it was because she didn't want something for nothing, maybe I should trade, let her touch the book and learn my magic, then she can teach me hers. That'd be fun.' With a smile on his face, he gave a wave to the other guy who had asked for learning before jumping down from the top of the building, tendrils catching him and slowing his descent by forming a slide, which deposited him right next to the red headed lady and sme other guy. They seemed to be whispering something o each other, but Nex didn't care, he wanted to learn that magic know!

""Hey lady, do you want to trade magic? Is that why you won't teach me? If so I can teach you mine, it's easy to learn,"" He reached into his cloak before pulling out a thick tome, the cover covered in thick black scales that seemed to pulsate at every second, the pages seemed ragged and were yellowed with age. Upon contact with the light of day, the scales of the book shiver and started to move ever slightly, a pulse of sickening magical energy filling the area, unnoticeable to all but magic users them selves, or those with an apt sense for such things. It would trickle down their spines, filling them with a feeling of unease and possibly disgust. ""All you have to do is open the book and boom, you got it. Well, there is some stuff in between, but Nex can't remember what it is."" Nex's eye became uncharacteristically distant and dull as he tried to recall those memories, but they were hazy and indistinct, understanding seeming to float just out of reach. Nex quickly snapped out of his stupor, however, and was back to his chipper self again. He was abut to say something else, when his body suddenly snapped straight, his eyes rolling up into the back of his head and his mouth open in a silent scream. He stayed like that for a moment, before his body relaxed and his eye came back down, though his entire demeanor seemed to have changed.

Gone was the childish and friendly aura that had surrounded him, now replaced by one of calm speculation, vast intellect, and a look in his eye that could make even the most bold of men cower when forced to behold it. 

""Excuse me for the interruption, but I had to stop my apprentice from doing something stupid and potentially dangerous. My name. . . is not important right now, all you need to know is that I am this boy''s master and that he does not have the authority to teach you anything about our magic, and he very nearly got you killed. This grimoire belongs to me, and can only be safely wielded by me and those I deem worthy, if somebody un approved were to touch it, they would be struck by a very fatal disease, dying a slow painful death. . . if hey are lucky. As for the unlucky ones, well,they have their uses. So, if you don't wish to be a new experiment for my studies or die, I would heartily recommend not touching the book.""</div>"

Hazael sighed. She just knew that people would mostly be like this. Incredulous at best, aggressive at worst. It wasn't like this movement had no head and feet. Hazael had obviously thought thoroughly about it. She had already issued orders and many other things. Her soldiers and those loyal to the king were on standby, ready to counter the coup d'etat whenever it might arise. It wasn't an insurrection what she was doing. It was the resistance against said insurrection. Astarte heard everything, and knew that more than one of the guys there were right about one thing. Hazael sounded like crazy. 

<font color=""#fff200"">""They are right, sis, completely so! How do you think announcing this in broad daylight will work in your favor!? Are you an idiot, sis?!""</font> Astarte snapped and started shouting at his sister, before a slap, fast as lightning, went across his cheek. Astarte was surprised, to say the least. 

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""I see your point, everyone. Indeed, announcing this in broad daylight is crazy. However, don't you think I already have something planned for being as bold as to put up those fliers? My steel has already verified who is guilty and who is innocent. The Dragon Knight is the only one still uncertain, I can only hope he is loyal to his king, at the very least.""</font> She quickly turned to Damon. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Double the guard, of course, would be the most logic course of action, but as said by our friend Cassie here, doing so without a reason. You, the assassin. I'll give you double, no, triple your normal fees. I get what Cassie is saying, but make it a fake attempt on his majesty's life. One that will end in a failure. Get arrested, be thrown into the dungeons and then escape. My agents will provide your weapons and armor that will be stripped from you after the arrest. Damon will have an excuse to increase the guard, and we will have the perfect alibi. An army has already been rallied, by me. We will defeat the Arachnoblaster tomorrow, make sure he loses his trump card, and then return to the kingdom. I fear that by the time we do, though, the rebellion might have already started.""</font> After that long explanation, she took a deep breath. Astarte merely listened to what his sister had to say. 

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""We aren't rebelling, we are actually the last line of defense against the coup d'etat staged by the prime minister. We'll meet here tomorrow at afternoon. If any of you feel like going to the prime minister or trying to arrest me, you'll receive an arrow to the knee, err, I mean, to the head. This is no joke. The king's life is in danger, princess Strea must also be protected at all costs.""</font> She thought she had answered all the questions everyone directed at her. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Anymore questions? If not, feel free to go back to your houses, and we will meet again tomorrow. I pray that all of us are safe through the night. My knights will be watching over you.""</font></div>"

In fact he was almost tempted to simply because of the challenge of it, but more importantly, he needed to know how to use paper magic. He now realized that his thoughts before were to small, why stop at paper airplanes. Why not create.... PAPER ROCKETS THAT COULD FLY TO OUTER SPACE. He giggly excitedly at the thought as he moved out of the nice paper lady's way and followed her down to ground floor again. The cool shadowy magicy guy was offering her a deal, frantically Bristlebane thought of what he had that she would want. Money? he had lots of that, wait that was it. The nice army lady said that they could meet back here tomorrow and do some fun stuff like blowing up the spider thingy so he filed away that information and then moved onto his plan. ""Hey nice lady, i have an offer for you and its a good one. If you teach me how to use paper magic then... I'll be a slave for you! I can do lots of things, like carry things, make music for you, ummmm, set up camp if you ever need to do that, and i got lots of money so I can pay for you if you want to stay at an inn or something."" he said to Chloe beaming with delight at his brilliant idea. He was positive that there was no way the magic lady would refuse his generous offer and he would finally learn how to use magic. For some reason all the other mages he managed to find had told him that he was to wild and irresponsible. Bristlebane had no idea why, last time he broke into a bank he had totally owned up to, coincidentally that town had had a really nice prison.</div>"

It was akin to the heady feeling of drunkenness yet every muddled feeling, emotion and question came to his mind with complete clarity. It was a heady cocktail of confidence, fear, aggression, loyalty and deceit. One that told Salazar all he needed to know about the party. His eyelids shut for a second as he remembered the instruction his teacher had once bestowed upon him.

<span class=""bb-i"">“An Illusionist is nothing without the inborn ability to read minds” The grizzled Grim growled at the young man that was his protégé “To heed the darkest fears and the most upheld ideals is how we ply our trade…so you must learn to decipher the emotions” the man’s voice was more guttural noise than human words “Got it? Good”</span>

Salazar opened his eyes to the group which had once more gotten bigger in the moments he had taken to compose himself. Things were crawling walls and another mage had gathered to the cause. The little trip of reverie down memory lane had taken longer than the Illusionist had expected. He caught the final part of Hazael’s speech and nodded gently, the fighting was something he could possibly not help with too greatly…illusions were notoriously ineffective against things of lower intelligence. Looking over the group he noticed a prostrated man kneeling to the mage that had appeared. He stifled a grin “ahh…Chloe Chevalier…such an honour that you grace us with our presence” he said with a good natured smile before clapping Hazael on the shoulder and leaning down to whisper to her “When they leave…I must have a chat with you…in private” He straightened back up and held his palm out, blue energy flowing into it and creating multiples of the little blue bird messengers that was his favoured method of communication. He breathed animation in to them before letting them loose to gather some favours he deemed necessary. The birds, crystalline sapphire formations, shot into the air and spread out quickly.</div>"

""Triple, huh? You remember, I hope, that half of my fee is paid up front and that it may increase based on expenses I incur?"" Tsubasa crossed his arms as he turned to Hazael, but this time he wore the smallest semblance of a smirk. ""My equipment is very important to me. Having it taken away, even temporarily, is going to cost you. But, for three times the price...sure. Consider Donat as good as dead."" He turned away to head back to the same inn he'd mentioned before. ""Remember, half the money by tomorrow, or I can't guarantee anything gets done. Same inn as before, ask for Kojiro.""

A fake attempt on the King, for the purposes of getting close to Donat. A bit of a roundabout...but potentially two birds with one stone, if he played his cards right. The fake attempt would give him the layout of the castle, and having the guards under Hazael's control on his side would give him plenty of escape opportunities or ways to get back into places that would no doubt be under heavier guard after the attempt on the King. It wasn't nearly as bad a plan as he'd initially thought, but...only an amateur wouldn't expect something to go wrong. No strategy, no matter how articulate, survives reaching the battlefield. 

He'd need to do a little bit of ""research"" tonight...but that would be no problem.</div>"

People seemed to come together a bit better now. They were now willing to follow her, or at least, that's what she thought. Now, what was next? She motioned something to her brother on the rooftop. If someone were to turn around, they'd see a shadow hurrying out of sight. Kendrick, Hazael's brother, who was watching over everything and will now inform everyone of Hazael's companions and who they should be watching. It was thought, Hazael was almost sure that Donat was already on their case. She felt the approaching danger, that's for sure, but right now, she couldn't back down, not after so many preparations. <font color=""#82ca9d"">""Dismissed, then. We will meet right here again tomorrow.""</font>

Astarte was confused as ever, and wanted to demand some kind explanation. What his sister had said meant nothing to him. He'd follow her to her home if necessary, but he wanted a real run down on how the hell did Hazael got on to everything that was happening. <font color=""#fff200"">""Sis, I-!""</font> Before he could say anything, Hazael stopped him by simply putting her hand up. 

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Ask anything you want to Kendrick. I have some things to take care of right now. Don't be late tomorrow, Assie.""</font> Hazael said, smiling at her brother and then walked to where Salazar was and motioned with her head for him to follow her.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">The Next Day</div></div>


Three figures stood next to the gate, at afternoon. Donat didn't do anything all throughout the night, and that was all the more worrying. In the gate were the three siblings of the Triumvirate. Many looked at them, all armed up and wearing suits of armor. Hazael was wearing really light armor, as well as her brother Kendrick, who had a bow hanging around his back, and lastly, her baby brother, Astarte was using heavy duty armor that looked extremely heavy, along with a sword and shield.

<font color=""#82ca9d"">""Shut up already, Ken.

There was a playful bounce to her step and she swung her arms in an exaggerated manner. Her body was wrapped in the same white paper coat that she had worn to the meeting the other day, only it was a little worse for wear. Her face was clean, save for a slight smudge of dirt on her cheek. If she had noticed it bothered her little.

Chloe turned toward Kendrick. <span class=""bb-b"">“So what about me? Do I have a nice body?”</span> Chloe said playfully, coming to a stop several feet from the group. To negate any tension her presence may have elicited she closed her eyes and laughed gently. She placed her hands together behind her back cocked her head to the side and smiled. <span class=""bb-b"">“Chloe Magnolia Chevalier. And you must be HaZaEl,”</span> Chloe said playfully as she deliberately fumbled the pronunciation of Hazael's name. <span class=""bb-b"">“We didn't speak yesterday. But here I am.

Damon began strolling down to the gate, this time accompanied by four members of the Kings Guard that he trusted completely, they weren't coming but he wanted them to help him keep Civvies away from the discussion... the those pesky city guard. The Other Guardsmen looked very prim and proper, in full uniform. They were walking with stone espressions, even if one of them was quite the talked off duty and could rarely hold his liquor, and their mere presence made people keep to the edge of the street, for to them this looked like official business and you never get involved in the official business of the upper classes if you valued your livelihood. On the other hand Damon looked more at ease, he was more relaxed, but not slobbish. He was still in full uniform but he hand casually rested on his hilt and his expression was one of exhaustion. Damon hadn't got much sleep, truth be told he spent most the night on duty and the rest lying down in one of the palace's guest rooms, alert for the slightest sign of movement.

Eventually he arrived at the gate to meet the trio and one other from yesterday, his men fanning out to keep the area clear of miscreants and allow them an area not filled by an army of civilians. Officially he was here to inspect the city guard and check that it was ready to deal with this arachnoblaster should Hazael's group fail, unofficially he was here to help in anyway he could. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Commander, these are some of my most trusted few, they have been informed of what should happen should an attempt be made on anyone in the palace's life.

He shook himself awake and discarded the raggedy blanket thing he was sleeping under and stood up. She seemed to be in a good mood maybe she would be willing to teach him magic today. ""Yeah whats the plan peps, and does it involve explosion?"" he asked echoing Damon's question. He didn't see the gunner lady yet so probably not. He thought about when would be the best time to ask the paper lady when he could learn magic. Probably right after he did something heroic like saving her, Bristlebane began constructing a plan to win himself her favor and learn how to make the ultimate paper everything. Mostly airplanes but he could probably make other cool stuff as well.</div>"

He didn't remember anything that had happened after his master had taken control of him, and he had woken up just an hour ago in a nearby alley. He hoped his master hadn't offended the paper lady in anyway. Deciding he'd had enough waiting, and being a little bored and mischievous, Nex jumped from the top of the gate onto one of the male knights that had accompanied Hazael, except he didn't look like himself, but like the paper mage lady. He was still wearing the same clothes however, or more to the point, wearing the same lack of clothes.

""Nex has arrived to slay the monster too!""</div>"

Cassie gave a half-assed salute as she walked past the four stone faced guards, her cannon swaying from the harness on her back. She gave a wink to Chloe as she ruffled Nex's head.

""I'd say your body is quite...magical? Was that too much? Probably too much. I can never tell. Job of extremes and all that.""

The bombardier slammed the cannon down onto the stone with a loud thud, giving a proper salute to Hazael before adjusting her monocle and patting the Howler and the heavy case strapped to her hips.

""Ma'am. Lieutenant Cutie, liking the armor, very intimidating. Puncture rounds, usually used for dropping braced walls during sieges, should kick through the critter's hide and wreak some havoc. These ones are modified slightly, so there SHOULDN'T be collateral on anyone up close when it hits, but it also means the booms are a bit smaller. But don't worry, I'm the best there is, so just trust that my shots won't hit any of you. I also have scatter shots in case there's infantry or the like trying to give backup, though I really don't recommend being near the target if I use it. I'm ready to go when you are.""

Extra ammo, designed to minimize impact on her allies. Grenades to light everything on fire if someone gets too close to her. She pulled her pistol out to double check the ammo. Hopefully she wouldn't need to use it. Her heart gave a skip. No drills, no practice shots. She got to blow up a big freaking monster with her cannon. Some days, it was wonderful to be alive, despite the situation. She'd get to hear her baby sing again. Leaning the cannon down into a makeshift bench, she sat down on it, lighting up her pipe and giving puffs with her signature jackal grin.

""Our group seems much smaller than yesterday. Where are we intercepting the beastie?""</div>"

After a good nights rest, and a tastier then usual breakfast ( courtesy of his favorite tavern ), Avon took his time getting back to the gate. As expected, he wasn't the first one there, not even close by the looks of it. Hazael was there, obviously, as well as a few faces he recognized from the crowd the previous day. However, not all of them he had seen before.

Anyhow, as he drew in closer, he heard them speak. The first one he heard was a girl who absolutely butchered Hazael's name. The second, was talking about the guard and asking for the plan. Others continued to go on and show they were present, and a few of them started to go about talking to each other. Avon was feeling a little less intimidated by the group then he had the previous day, but he couldn't bring himself to talk to any of them yet. 

Avon didn't want to shout above the others to introduce himself, so he inched towards Hazael, all the while listening as before. One of the ladies gave quite the speech. He would have been slightly less inclined to listen to the bombardier talk if she hadn't been so pretty. Avon then slapped himself lightly to get himself out of the mindset. <span class=""bb-i"">Now's not the time for staring, now's the time for action!</span> he pep talked himself while he merged with them.</div>"

Dante had gone back to his forge and whipped up a special pistol, just for today. He happily slung it over his belt and displayed his sword proudly as he went back to where they would be meeting. ""Hello!"" he said cheerily, eyeing the people that were there. ""Seems to be the same people from yesterday still."" he said normally, a slight undertone of happiness as he approached Chloe again, her being the only person he really knew at all here.

Her two admirers from yesterday had arrived. The dark mage and the monkey. The fact that Nex had taken her face was also more than a little disconcerting. Though she laughed at the sight her brow suggested a distinct lack of amusement.<span class=""bb-b"">“Hehe, yeah, that's not creepy at all,”</span> Chloe said more to herself than to Nex.

The women called Cassie made her own entrance a moment later. She had an aura of natural confidence around her that made her presence known. But it was the object on her back that was making Chloe more than a little inwardly nervous. A cannon. It was not the technology itself per see that bothered her but it kind of suggested a specific preference toward blowing things up. And fire. Chloe felt a nervous tinge in her stomach that made her keep her distance. Which was why the arrival of Dante came as something of a relief.

Chloe turned to face him and waved in greeting with a radiant smile on her face. <span class=""bb-b"">“Dante. Oh, what's that you have there?”</span> she asked rhetorically as she leaned in toward the gun that he was holding, his enthusiasm almost blinding compared to the lacklustre enthusiasm that she showed toward her own craft. <span class=""bb-b"">“F-fire huh?

""Sorry Assie, I was bored and wanted to pounce on someone, and you looked like a fun person to mess with."" Turning to Chole, Nex turned his head down as he walked up to her, clearing his throat as he tried to get her attention.
""Um, excuse me paper lady, but Nex is sorry for anything the Nex's master may have said to you, and for almost hurting you with he book. Nex forgot abut Master's curse on it, says something about protecting his secrets. I hope you'll forgive Nex, he didn't mean to hurt you."" Nex then reached into one of his coat pockets and pulled out a black <a href=""http://www.impressajewelry.com/images/categories/PA280020.JPG"">necklace</a> of exquisite finery, the gemstones being a dark maroon in color.

“You sure that thing is on it’s leash?” 

“Yes, yes. Just make sure you do as you were told to do.” The magus controlling the spider replied, giving the merc an exasperated look. It was obvious that the ensemble of hired muscle was not up to his liking.

“Just as long as we’re paid. It’s a good thing your master, Donat, pays well. That bloody spider gives me the creeps. Sasha here holds the same sentiment.” The merc’s dire wolf emitted a short howl before continuing to smell what it could apart from the smoke and ashes.

“Jeez Arni. You’ve got a bigass wolf that can literally tear people apart and you’re complaining about a little spider? I ain’t scared of it one bit. All it’s been doing is spewing flames. That’s probably what it does for a living. Burn down forests and shit, ya know? Hardly givin a fuck!” Elijah laughed as Arni frowned at him. He was one of those serious types that never knew how to lighten up, and was a general downer. Elijah turned to the other merc, desperate to avoid Arni's gaze. “So what do you think of it Leandra? Knowing your god, he’d probably be angry a sister like yourself is collaborating with something straight outta hell.”

“All of his creations are equal in his eyes. The All-Knowing One must have his reasons for creating even something as foul as the Arachnoblaster.” It seemed odd that someone from the church had accompanied them. But, it was as much as a mystery as the job they had all accepted. 

The job was supposed to be top secret. Hence only three escorts along with the mage who was controlling the titan of a spider. Alas, they were three very good mercenaries. 

Arni, despite his lack of a personality, had more than enough hunting and tracking skills to make up for it. Need a scout, hunter, or someone flashy to put the fear in your enemy? Arni’s your man. His dire wolf can track you miles away, and Arni had a penchant for adorning combat claws to rip your shit.

Need a personal bodyguard for a day? Need something unexpected? Bloody enemy not perishing from a good bullet to the face? Leandra got your back. Holy magicks and pure faith, that’s right, PURE FAITH turned into holy retribution for your foes. Watch as light magicks smite your foes. Healing package included with every purchase!

And then there was Elijah, Guns are his name, fastest gunslinger of New Torrea… At least as far as he knew. Every person he'd dueled had a slower draw. Not to mention bad aim. But if you needed someone disposed of fast, Elijah was the one you call over to get shit done.

Sure the job was shady for Elijah. “Burn these forests down, but also look for these two women in the woods! By the way, they just happen to be Knight Commander Hazael's Sisters! Kidnap em for me!” How shadier could you get? But the pay made him decide to accept. Elijah really didn't have a choice anyway, but he’d like to think he had one. Donat made sure he accepted, along with the other mercs. So here he was. Miserable from the neverending fire of the Arachnoblaster, with two other strangers, protecting a spider and looking for two women for reasons unknown….</div>"

Dante smiled briefly at Chloe's nervousness, before putting the pistol away. ""Don't worry, it isn't loaded, nor are the bullets really able to combust right now.

The two Michaellis sisters were hiding inside their little and brittle wood house. Before, it was barely furnished and now it looked like a high class appartment, but the fact that it was still only a log house remained. The fire would soon reach it, and the two sisters while it was at it. The older of the two, Uriah, decided to stop cowering back in fear. She hurried to the entrance and took one of the swords that her other siblings had left there, for protection if needed be some day. <font color=""#bc8dbf"">""I'll be right back!

<font color=""#8493ca"">""Sis!""</font> The youngest of the Michaellis sisters shouted, before her sister disappeared through the front door. 

Running as fast as her two legs could carry her, Uriah hurried through the woods. Only to come face to face with the Arachnoblaster, and all of her rowdyness escaped her after seeing the horrific monster standing in front of her. Her eyes went blank, she felt like screaming. She was about to, but she stopped herself. After seeing the men that were accompanying it... It was nothing as simple as just a monster.

Returning to the room he had taken refuge in for the last fortnight he gathered the items that he deemed relevant and necessary, packing them away and organizing his thoughts. Monotonous activities always allowed Salazar to compartmentalize things and establish a baseline for the day. He breathed in deeply before collapsing into a seated position in the middle of the room after the cleaning was done. Cloaked in the sapphire aura that was his trademark, the illusionist mentally prepared himself for the lesson with his instructor. The dog eared leather bound book in his hand writhed with emerald flames. 


Salazar’s eyes snapped open, the deep blue burning with unnatural colour. The lesson had lasted the entire night and Grim had once again proclaimed that Salazar had advanced further down the path of an Illusionist. Grim had even imparted some of his own constructs into the young mages mind. Salazar looked at the pale sunlight the cut through the thin sheets these people considered curtains and decided it was once again time to make his travel easier. He grabbed his things and focused on the ever present mental wavelength the Triumvirate exuded. He popped out of existence from the room and once again reconstructed himself from a mental image within Hazael’s mind. The group was filled with something else today...sex was on someone’s mind. It always tasted vaguely of sugar to Salazar’s mind. Anger was always strongly acidic…depression was sour and fear was….intoxicating to him. He loved feeling fear in a mind. He gave a small shudder before tuning in to the conversation “Don’t tell her that Kendrick…the ego of Chloe is big enough as is” He said with a good natured grin before clapping his hands together and creating a small illusion of the Arachnoblaster “So…we ready to hunt a bigger one?” Salazar said as the spider skittered up to Salazar’s shoulder and prepared to jump on to Hazael.</div>"

After he left the gathering of crazies, Tsubasa had at first returned to his inn. He spent a great deal of time checking and double checking his equipment; he sharpened his sword, but not quite to a razor keen edge. If he had to clash blades, he didn't want the sword too brittle. A razor sharp edge might cut, but it would also shatter. A decent whetting was good enough to cut through flesh without sacrificing the integrity of the blade. He sorted through his supplies and extra clothing; he would need a disguise in case he were discovered snooping around the castle. His black coat and normal dark clothing was just personal choice--for actual stealth, he would need something dark enough to blend into the surroundings at night. Anything that was an actual, solid black would be unnatural. Dusk turned things a hazy blue, or a shade of midnight, or a dull gray. 

By the time he was done making his preparations it was much later. He ate a meal, and then sat on his bed for some time, relaxing and meditating, his sheathed weapon lying across his lap. A knock at the door prompted him to open a single eye.

""Come in."" 

The man was wearing casual clothing, but Tsubasa had an eye for these things and knew he had seen combat. The way he held himself, the man had to have been a soldier. 

""You are Mr. Kojiro?"" he said. When Tsubasa nodded, he held up a sealed envelope. The wax was blank, no signet...but it was also a deep red color, the kind from expensive candles only people in high standing could afford. ""I've a letter for you from a mutual acquaintance.""

""And?"" The soldier stepped aside, and a pageboy walked in carrying a chest of coins. He placed the chest in front of Tsubasa and backed out. With the toe of his boot the assassin opened its simple catch lock and pushed the top over. He stared at the contents for several moments as the soldier and page stood nervously awaiting his response.

""Alright."" he said finally. ""That looks about right."" He opened both eyes now and gave them an icy stare. ""Thanks. You can go now.""

He had the money--Three hundred thousand up front. Hell, that was more than he would've gotten for a normal job of this caliber. He could just high tail it out of the city now with this and let that knight woman and those crazies deal with this for themselves. 

But of course, that would tarnish his reputation. And that would affect future employers.

Again he checked and double checked his equipment. He secured what belongings he would not be taking with him, and the chest, in his room and left the inn in a set of clothes not at all conspicuous from those of the still bustling citizens around him. His hair was now a deep, chocolate brown after a quick wash with a special dye. As the sun set, he nonchalantly set off down the streets, taking a long-about route that would take him past the castle a few times.

For the rest of that night, he did his ""research.""

And the next day, as the rest of the group gathered around Hazael for a second time, a pair of servants driving a cart full of laundry underwent their usual daily inspection at the castle gates before being waved through. Tsubasa was in.</div>"

She turned to face Nex as he approached her and looked at him with genuine confusion. He was apologising for his actions the previous day, that and anything that his master had said to her during their brief exchange. Chloe really wasn't sure why he was apologising though. Not about that stuff anyway. She waved a hand up and down in a conciliatory manner. <span class=""bb-b"">“No no no, there's no need to apologise, I had absolutely no intention of actually touching that thing, even though you offered. I already have a master, I can't be apprenticed to two people at once, after all,”</span> Chloe offered with slightly strained cheer.

In truth the book had made her feel ill to look upon. Though this was by no means conclusive evidence she had a feeling that the nature of Nex's magic and her own was incompatible by nature. It had certainly been beyond her ability to influence or control the pages within the tome. But she didn't want to tell him that lest it cause some manner of offence, which made the fact that he had produced a necklace in reconciliation even more awkward. As a token of apology she could readily accept it but if it was an indication of other motives it would only foster misunderstanding. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“I don...”</span> she started to say but hesitated immediately and relented. <span class=""bb-b"">“Fine, I accept your apology,”</span> she said as she gingerly took the necklace from Nex. She looked at it for a moment before placing it into her backpack. The monkey had looked as though he had something to say as well but before she could raise the issue the most egocentric of the knightly trio made his move on her. It was her own fault so she had no right to complain. Chloe grinned playfully in response to Kendrick's proposition, neither embarrassed or affronted by his very forward suggestion. She just laughed in amusement as he took her hand in his own. The kiss was a cute gesture but it did little for her. 

<span class=""bb-b"">“Well, aren’t you the charming one,”</span> she said in mock surprise as she turned toward Salazar and smiled at him.</div>"

Still, guns are really scarce, just like magic, so most people still prefer good ol' steel. Guns aren't full auto, but revolvers and snipers are a reality here.</li><li>Including New Torrea, the kingdom we'll start in, there are 4 other countries your character can come from.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">The Countries</div></div>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><div class=""bb-h3"">New Torrea:</div> 
This country is bustling with people and technology. With a medieval Italy styling, this is where our story will start from. King Allamon rules here, but he has fallen ill and become bedridden with an unknown disease. His health is really precarious, and his daughter, Princess Strea, tends to him day and night, with no positive results in sight. Prime Minister Donat is now trying to make New Torrea expand. An intelligent man, yes, but with no strategic insight or the slightest idea of what war is. Many back him up, but there are also those who do not, but that's a minority as of right now. The people ache for a revolution now, but a revolution that will bring nothing but pain for them. Klomos is the Mage of the Court here.</li><li><div class=""bb-h3"">Milokis:</div>
Librarians and mages are the majority here. With a look like that of ancient Germany, Milokis is often dubbed as the Country of Wisdom, even though the greatest library of the continent is in a city near and not in Milokis itself. The Mage Council is made-up of 10 exceptional mages, the most powerful mages in all the continent. It seems there's also a Mage of the Court here in Milokis, even though it defies the whole concept of the Mage of the Court being the most powerful mage in the country. The whole country is protected by a barrier that doesn't allow people to get into the country without being a mage OR walking all the way there, in order to protect against foreign attacks.</li><li><div class=""bb-h3"">Nijiara:</div> 
The agricultural country, there's a vast flora and fauna here, as well as really dangerous monsters. Assassins and rogues come from here just like the food, of the best quality. The buildings in here are styled like those of feudal Japan. The King, Nodabu, is an strict man with an strategic mind, but still supports New Torrea with all his might, being their principal ally during times of war and such, but with Donat being in charge right now, Nodabu has shut down all communication with them. However, the Mage of the Court, Theana, still keeps on constant contact with New Torrea.</li><li><div class=""bb-h3"">Hoskaros:</div>
The biggest country of the other three, they are the biggest military force in the continent. They operate through a council, much like Milokis. Their buildings are like those of middle age Russia (If that makes sense xD). They don't hold any communication with any other country, but with Nijiara in order to get food. The Mage of the Court, Gnash, handles all of their political affairs, and also seems to be quite a racist man, hailing from the same country he is now serving in.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h2"">The Magic</div></div>

Magic here is quite simple. You study magic and specialize in some kind of field, where you are able to achieve great things, but this also closes your probabilities of casting other magic in large scale, however, you can still cast little thingies like flames for cooking or things of the like. Of course, you can study something else, but that will be harsher on your body. Example, if you study necromancy, then you can cook something with pretty little flames, but can't shoot big-ass fireballs, and you also get to resurrect the death! Yay~

It's due to magi being punks with their secrets. Hence why Milokis is protected by a magical barrier. Still, everyone has a latent potential for magic.

Name: James/Jasmine Bondler
Screen Name: 007
Age: 14
Nationality: England  
Personality: According to him, James is a hard boiled yet smooth operator. Able to keep calm under any sort of situation, with nerves of ice, just like his father...this would be a lie. While he does indeed try to act that way, his emotions sometimes get the best of him, much to his dismay. He feels that it makes him incapable of being like his father. While his father could suppress his concern for others and himself to put the mission first, James can't. He cares deeply about everyone, and is far too compassionate for a secret agent in his eyes

Biography: James' father was one of the most skilled members of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, or MI6. While his missions were all highly classified, one thing that wasn't was that his father, Shawn Connery Bondler, was the best in the business...until he was killed. James' mother (and by extentsion, him as well) never learned how he died, only that it happened on the day that James was born. Because of this, James grew up without a father figure in his life. In fact, all he had left of his father were some pictures, and four keepsakes that he was told his father took everywhere with him

While he never knew exactly what his father did, he did know that it could be summed up as 'secret agent stuff', which he found really exciting. Growing up, young James was always obsessed with anything spy related, from books to comics to TV shows, he loved it all. It was because of this that James knew from a young age that he wanted to follow in his father's footsteps. However, he always doubted his ability to do so. While the characters in his favorite fictional stories were always cool and collected, unfazed by anything, James wasn't the same

Having lost her husband to such a line of work, James' mother didn't want the same to happen to her only child, so one day she decided to send him to school in Italy when he was 11, hopping that getting him out of an environment with so much super spy fiction would end that dream...it didn't. Because Her husband died in service to the crown, James' mother received a pretty decent sized check every month to pay for things. As such, she was able to afford to send James to a school in Italy. She chose Italy because she had a sister with a house there who was rarely at home because of her job.

During the beginning of summer break when he was just 13, he was a was caught up in an attack by a strange monster. A hit to the head by some debris knocked him out, so he doesn't know what happened during the attack. However when he woke up, he found something unbelievable had happened to him; he had become a girl. A nearby Magical Girl told him (now a her) that she had brought her back from the brink of death by making her a Magical Girl as well. While she believed that her father would have been able to remain calm in such a situation, James (or Jasmine, as she decided to call her female form) was not, and understandable freaked out. After calming down, the older Magical Girl taught her the basics of Magical Girl stuff, even discovering that her four keepsakes had become magical items. With help from her, she was able to learn how to use all of them over the course of summer break. When August came however, the Magical Girl left, saying that she had to return home

With The Cufflinks, James was able to hid his secret from the world. Using them to maintain his male form in public. However because of his lack of experience, he couldn't keep it up indefinitely. When the older Magical Girl left, James did his best to stay away from that world, just wanting to be a normal boy. As such, the only Keepsake that saw regular use was The Cufflinks. However, it soon grew to be too much for Jasmine, ans she joined a team of Magical Girls to try and find a way to return to normal. Although because of the shame she felt from being stuck in a girl body, she kept the fact that she was really male a secret from her teammates
 
Experience Level: First Act
Skills: 
Marksman; Very good aim with a pistol. Some of his father's old friends sometimes took him down to a shooting range to practice

Acrobatic; He worked out to be able to preform the same insane stunts that secret agents on TV could. Granted he only got to that level with magic, but even without it he's still pretty nimble.

Stealthy; Also something that he felt he would need as a secret agent.

Can bullshit like a master; This one seems to be more of a natural gift of his. James was always good at coming up with stories on the fly, and got good enough at acting to back them up

Magical Power: Upon becoming a magical girl, James' Four Keepsakes from his dead father became magical items. When using their magical power, they turn gold
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""The Pen"" type=""button"">The Pen [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/jamesbond/images/a/a8/Gold_Pen.png/revision/latest?cb=20121030210452""/>
The Pen can draw holes in thin surfaces (ie walls) in Golden Mode. If they are big enough, then people can pass through them. Any holes made with The Pen disappear once the cap is put back on.</div></div>

When in Golden Mode, The Lighter's flame becomes hypnotic. It can be used to put non-magical people in a trance. From there, he can either erase a reacent memory, or have them obey a simple command. The trance caused by The Lighter wares off after a few hours, however any memories erased stay that way</div></div>

The Cufflinks allow James to shape-shift when in Golden Mode, although with his current skill level, it's limited. Because he was born a male and spent so many years as one, using The Cufflinks to maintain his original form is much easier then any other. They also change their appearance to fit whatever form James takes, however they retain their gold color</div></div>

The Gun is the combined form of James' Four Keepsakes. Because it can only be formed when the others are in their Golden Mode, it is always gold. Also, because it requires all Four Keepsakes to make, James is unable to use the individual powers of the Keepsakes when using The Gun. As for it's powers; The Gun fires completely silent magical bullets, and due to it's magical nature, does't need to be reloaded. It is James' sole offensive power</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Sam Linder

<span class=""bb-b"">Screen name:</span> TarotIX

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 15 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> See picture above for her wearing her magical girl costume.
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> England

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> A girl of few words, Sam keeps herself to herself and has often been described by others as 'sullen'. She is mistrusting of all adults, except for her own parents, while at the same time looking down on all those her own age as being too immature. Thanks to this outlook, she has ended up driving away all potential friendships and has found herself alone, all the while wondering why nobody wants to talk to her. She keeps telling herself she's happier by herself, but in truth she is not only very lonely, but depressed with her loneliness. In order to distract herself from her solitude, she tends to spend a lot of her time (especially in class) daydreaming and fantasising. She has a lot of interest in fantasy and magic, and would often imagine herself as going on adventures and using magic to fight terrible monsters, that she was a hero in one of her favourite book series. This is perhaps why, since becoming a magical girl, Sam's depression has subsided a little, as she now feels like a hero in some fantasy novel, and she feels like she finally has a purpose in her life. However, just like her daydreams, Sam's life as a magical girl is merely an escape from the real world, a real world that could be lurking just around the corner.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Sam has only been a magical girl for three months now. Before then, she had a relatively normal albeit very lonely life. She is incredibly close to her parents, especially her mother, both whom babied and spoiled their daughter. Mr and Mrs Linder were often concerned for their daughter during her early years as she seemed to have problems socialising with other children and teachers seemed to complain a lot about Sam not focussing in class, upon a meeting with a teacher, it was suggested that Sam might be autistic. Sam was referred to a child psychologist who eventually came to diagnose Sam as having Aspergers Syndrome. The child psychologist then informed Sam's current primary school of this and suggested they do their best to support Sam.

Unfortunately, the school didn't have a proper Learning Support program and not many teachers seemed to understand, and as the years went on, they started to get more and more frustrated with Sam, either because she had a tendency to phase out and daydream during class, or because she needed more help when trying to learn. The fact that Sam didn't have any real friends or that some boys tends to mock or make fun of her didn't help. In her final two years of primary school, Sam did make a friend named Lucy, a real friend who shared her interests in fantasy and art and she was a little happier, but her schoolwork was still pretty low.

When Sam made it to secondary school, things both got better and worse for her. They were better because her secondary school had a lot more knowledge on how to deal with Sam's Aspergers and were a lot more patient and helpful. But it was worse because Sam and Lucy ended up going to separate schools, and Sam found herself alone once more. Sam was able to make some friendly acquaintances who she could hang around with from time to time, but most of the time she spend by herself, still dreaming and imagining.

Sam kept in contact with Lucy, and the two still continued to see each other. Then, when she was thirteen, Lucy transferred to Sam's school, and Sam was overjoyed to be back with her friend. However, Lucy, previously just as shy as Sam, ended up getting a whole group of friends within weeks, and started preferring hanging around with the group rather than just Sam. Lucy, of course, invited Sam to spend time with the group, but Sam didn't like sharing her best friend and often became upset or irritable with her friend, and the two of them slowly grew further apart. The bond between them came to an end finally when Lucy not only cut herself off from Sam, but also her other friends when Lucy started becoming boy-crazy. When Lucy finally go a boyfriend, Sam, full of jealousy, gave up on Lucy and started avoiding her. She hoped that Lucy would notice this behaviour and try to make up with her...

... but she never did.

For ages, Sam became more and more irritable, becoming even more distant from the other students and her grades dropped dramatically. She kept on pretending to be ill a lot so as not to spend any time at school. Her mood became worse and worse. She spent all her time in her room, wasn't doing any work and some of the teachers were started to get annoyed with her attitude. Eventually, she stopped going to school altogether. Her parents didn't like it, but they weren't the best as forcing her to do things she didn't want to do, and suggested she retake the year again at the beginning of the next school year. Months past, and Sam became more and more distant, while her parents became a little bit more irritated with her as the days went by, though they tried not to show it. 

When the beginning of the next school years was close by, her parents and Sam started arguing a lot. Her parents wanted her to go back to school, but Sam didn't want to. During one particularly bad argument, Sam actually ran out of the house and ran away. She stayed in a shopping district for about an hour until she had calmed down and, realising how horrible she had been to her parents, burst into tears.

In a moment of madness, Sam went to a nearby building and tried to throw herself off, telling herself that her parents and the world would be better off without her. However, she didn't succeed. She was saved by a magical girl, a girl who looked like a witch out of one of her fairy tale books. The girl's name was Annie, and she told Sam that she had to keep soldiering on despite of her sadness and loneliness and that ""things would get better"". Sam can't remember much after that, only that she woke up in her bed back home, her parents relieved to see her the next morning, though they didn't remember hearing her come in at night. Sam apologised to her parents, telling them she would go back to school. 

It was soon after that, beginning her new school year, that Sam discovered her ability to transform into a magical girl, with a costume that looked like a fantasy sorceress. Overjoyed with this, Sam started using her new powers, which soon got the attention of Annie again, who started teaching Sam the duties of a magical girl. The two worked as partners for a while, and formed a friendship. However, as Sam slowly gets more understanding of her powers, she starting to think about striking out on her own.

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level:</span> Greenhorn 
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
- While not the most athletic, Sam has started taking fighting training since she became a magical girl, and has learned how to wield her staff like a bo staff, as this will be its only use until she learns proper magic.

- Good at taking orders. As someone who has no faith in her ability to make crucial decisions, especially in battle, she will easily rely on the commands of others, especially those who she sees as the most capable.

- Has an excellent memory for certain things if they interest her enough.

- Surprisingly good at empathising with people and understanding people's feelings, thoughts and personalities. This is because she's a listener, not a talker.

- Drawing and creating art.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power:</span> As a Greenhorn magical girl, Sam has yet to learn any real magic and only has the basic magical girl abilities. (For future reference, Sam's powers will be light-based when she starts to discover them.)</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Lindsey Helena Wells
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Screen name:</span></span> errorBUSTER

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 11

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> English

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Lindsey is the classic example of a selfish, fight-happy magical girl who cares more about her own personal wants and whims than protecting the world from impending doom. However, she has a knack for finding herself on the right side of the law, and enjoys fighting Errors too much to let herself fall to badness. 

When she's not fightan', her Littleness can be found drinking grown-up tea, eating cakes and generally just doing as she pleases. She's used to a pampered life, and doesn't make nice if she isn't treated with the proper respect she so clearly deserves. More than anything else, she wants to be the <span class=""bb-i"">""Absolute and ultimate, strongest and most awesome Magical Girl there is.""</span> 

This is her dream.

Doesn't care much for ordinary life, and prefers to live almost entirely as a Magical Girl. Because of this, her <span class=""bb-i"">""Mundane Life""</span> skills are very lacking, as are her basic interpersonal skills required for making a living in a conventional friendship setting. Her combat-oriented mindset makes her a good pair with anybody else who likes fighting, but she also makes a good Protector-type when the time calls for it. She likes to ignore others and focus on herself, but she isn't cruel, and will rarely outright abuse somebody outside of a very specific personality archetype.

While she's a good girl at her core, she is easily influenced by her ambition and selfishness, making it surprisingly easy to influence how she acts with well-thought out words or impressive actions. She makes decisions almost entirely based on herself, and sometimes doesn't take others into consideration, although she is definitely not without her ordinary share of feelings, and often comes to regret when she makes problematic decisions afterwards.

Oh, and while she adores action and hot-blooded awesome magic battles, <span class=""bb-i"">""Kicking back is fine too.""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Lindsey's tale is not a happy one, a trait she shares with many of those who have defied death...

Once, she was the daughter of a lovely, well-off family living in modern London. Together, they forged a wonderful, peaceful family life the likes of which the world has never seen. Lindsey loved her parents, and they certainly loved her back. They pampered her with all the wants in the world, sending her to expensive classes and spending many a long, pleasant summer afternoon with her. However, no peace can last forever, and in a wicked twist of fate- 

They were attacked.

A man, gangster type by the look of him, broke into their home late in the evening, and went after the wealth they kept hidden away in a bedroom safe. Hearing the commotion, Little Lindsey went to her parent's room, only to find them being held at knifepoint by a strange man. Without thinking about it, she lunged at the man, attempting to protect her parents from the person threatening her.

Both her mother and father were slain, after she was tossed away uselessly by the much stronger, fully-grown man she had attacked. After that, the man moved on to her. She cursed her helplessness, despairing aloud at the cruelty of it all just when she thought her life was to be at an end. But then-

She was saved.

Ever since then, she's tried to make the most of her newly found life. She never forgot the helplessness she felt that day, and strives to become stronger so that she never has to feel that way again. Now that she knows of the threat, of the Errors being fought in the shadows of human society, she knows for sure. 

In order to create the happiness she seeks, she will have to do it; She'll have to become the absolute, strongest and most ultimate Magical Girl of them all. And nobody can stop her, because that is her wish.

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level:</span> Magical Girl

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Dance</span> - Back when she was ordinary, Lindsey was in a dance class for young girls. She incorporates this into pretty much everything she does, although she isn't conscious of it even when she pulls off a cute spin mid-fight.

<span class=""bb-i"">Naming Sense</span> - Lindsey is a natural prodigy at the art, and often assists others by helping make up for their lack of skill with clever, and often extremely awesome names.

<span class=""bb-i"">Not Listening to Others</span> - A skill which she has perfected to the max, allowing her to completely disregard what you have to say. You gotta problem with that?

<span class=""bb-i"">Being an Antagonist</span> - While not a skill which she actively trains, she nonetheless shows a great deal of talent in this and is easily able to serve as a foil to any justice-spouting or obnoxiously cheerful magical girl. Oh, but she isn't actually that bad of a girl, she just likes to have fun is all...

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">POWER UP</span> - Lin's rather underdeveloped special ability, which draws upon her own base power and concentrates it into a single or multiple points. Even at this very basic, seemingly useless level, her destructive power is <span class=""bb-i"">""Abnormally ridiculous""</span>, and a direct hit from a POWER UPPED attack would put all but the most durable foes out of commission. Her description for this technique is that she just <span class=""bb-i"">""Moves all of her stat points into POWER""</span>, but in reality, she is drawing upon her bodily and magical energies, combining all of it into a single point and releasing it in an explosive discharge of power.

She usually uses her power through a medium, specifically her hammer <span class=""bb-i"">""Break Nuclear""</span>. While this makes her ability much more practical, as she doesn't suffer as much slowness while using it this way, it also greatly decreases her attack's destructive power, changing it from an <span class=""bb-i"">""A+""</span> to a <span class=""bb-i"">""B+""</span>.

The true nature of her ability is to draw upon the power of <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span> and to concentrate it all into herself to increase her destructive output to an unlimited degree. Until she realizes this, and learns to control it, she can never truly realize her potential as a Magical Girl.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Special Moves"" type=""button"">Special Moves [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-i"">POWER PUNCH</span> - The most creative of Lindsey's moves, which punches the enemy with overwhelming power. To give an example of how strong her POWER is, if this were used against an ordinary human, they would turn into the <span class=""bb-i"">""Anatomical equivalent of an Ice Cream Sundae.""</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">POWER BOOST</span> - Is actually the most creative usage of Lindsey's ability, and yet she still doesn't really favour using it. Releasing POWER from her body to propel herself rapidly is a neat technique, and helps her negate her disadvantage gained from being an almost entirely melee fighter. Rather than a controlled movement technique, this is more like a <span class=""bb-i"">""sudden boost""</span>, and is hard to control at the best of times. The name of this move is often altered to suit whatever activity is being accomplished, such as <span class=""bb-i"">""POWER SLIDE""</span> or <span class=""bb-i"">""POWER DISCO""</span>.

<span class=""bb-i"">POWER NUCLEAR</span> - An awesome, albeit silly attack which involves tightly grasping the handle of her hammer and spinning rapidly, somehow drastically increasing its destructive power. However, this is a terribly inaccurate and troublesome move that also results in Lindsey herself becoming hopelessly dizzy. Use responsibly, as while it can assure a certain victory against plenty of foes, it can also ruin one's reputation if done poorly. By the way, the version of this technique without the spinning is called <span class=""bb-i"">""HAMMER NUCLEAR""</span>.

<span class=""bb-i"">SHOCK BOMBER</span> - A devastating punch in the enemy's general direction, which somehow creates a wave of force powerful enough to throw a grown man through a brick wall and punch through solid concrete. Has been known to pass through enemy defences, and even hit opponents on the other side of walls in the past, likely due to the penetrative nature of the attack. Named so because it's a real shock to whoever she's facing, as she almost appears to punch them through a warp in spacetime.

<span class=""bb-i"">There is a move that Lindsey has been trying to accomplish. An ultimate, unbeatable technique, the strongest attack in the world. Oh, but it's nowhere near completion, and attempting to use it in a fight will likely result in her death.</span></div></div></div>"

Name: Caligetta Cavallerizzo

Screen Name: IlBagattoSenzaNome

Age: 14

Appearance: See above

Nationality: Italian (Pizzone)

Personality: Somewhat brash but incredibly full of bravado and a vital energy, perhaps to a flaw, Caligetta enjoys the company of close friends but disdains crowds and overly friendly strangers, but at the same time is often willing to defend someone she's never met if they're in a lick of trouble. She's very unused to the idea of tresspassing being more then an empty threat and lacks certain mental inhibtions about not ignoring signs telling her not to pass, and is suprsingly good at jumping fences. Has a strong disdain for overly feminine frilly dress-types, but secretly admires the style, though she'd rather spit on her own mother before admitting it. Having lived in a relatively isolated lifestyle for most of her life, she lacks expierence in romance but is quite interested in the concept. Raised in a rural agricultural lifestyle, her only real hobbies being shooting guns and racing horses, she has a general disdain for the certain complexities of a more urban lifestyle, and is often annoyed at not being able to get to a destination as fast as possible or having to wait on cars and traffic.

Biography: The House (or more accurately barn) of the Cavallerizzo of Pizzone stretches back millenia, family tales suggesting that they had occupied their ranch since Rome fell. Of course, this is highly unlikely, but one must draw their pride from somewhere. In any case, Caligetta grew up in a town seemingly isolated from the metal fingers of time, and despite the TV and telephone she lived a life few in this modern age could.
The Cavallerizzo, for at least as long as records traced back, had been horse ranchers, known for their excellent quality horses that had brought the occasional Venetian merchant or Turkish trader to their farm in search of their coursers. While they had diversified into cattle as the market for horses gradually fell, they still were a family known for their equestrian lineage, their family believed to have the last pure bred Neapolitan herd in Italy.
Caligetta grew up among these animals and gained a connection to them only a few in our modern world have, racing among the fields, herding cattle, and chasing off local predators with a family revolver, all of which the near constant practice made her incredibly skilled at for her age. Growing up a robust young woman, she won her first horse race on her pony Slow Dancer at age 9, and managed to win a junior shooting competition at 10. Things seemed up for her, until one day, on a ride through the forest, she found herself confronted by some monster, a giant lump of growling fur and wooden spikes and blood, that tore through her beloved Slow Dancer like paper. The beast had begun to approach her until a girl, maybe a few years younger then her, shot an arrow through the creature, rending it in two. The girl helped her up, introduced herself, told her about who she was and what she did, and that by saving her life she was conscripted into this group, that she sadly had no choice in the matter. Putting on a brave face, while mourning her horse, Caligetta agreed, wanting revenge for whatever had taken away Slow Dancer from her. While her savior eventually disappeared, she eventually resolved to move to Rome in order to strike at the heart of the errors, and to join with other magical girls. However, she is also here to step up her horse racing, with her new mount ""Trans-Europe Express,"" and keep on the legacy of Slow Dancer.
She has begun her career and has managed to survive sucessfully and gain some degree of power, at least until now.
Her focal seed is a metal amulet with hair from Slow Dancer's mane, taken after their first race together. She considers him to have saved her from death at the error's hand, despite the actions of the magical girl who saved her.

Experience Level: Magical Girl (First Act)

Skills: Master Equestrian, Skilled Sharpshooter, Good Eyes, Cattle Whisperer, Can Tie a Good Knot, Decent Cook, Deft Survivalist, Quite Agile, Has Literally Been Through This Rodeo Before, Cannot Drive At All, (JK)11/10 Lesbian(/JK?)

Magical Power: (First Act) Page of Wands: She has the ability to manifest (and demanifest) two large revolvers at will. These revolvers come fully loaded and are in themselves magical, and can presumably block attacks, though less so then any physical weapon. Bullets shot from these weapons are not fixed in their trajectory, which can be altered or stopped by Caligetta to a significant degree, though they cannot switch directions without turning (they also are much less affected by friction).

(First Act) Knight of Wands: She may  manifest a mystical sable horse of unknown origins, apparently named Incitatus by what's inscribed into it's bridle, which has an incredible speed, agility, and reflexes, being able to leap between rooftops and gallop at the speed equivalent to a Formula One racecar without suffering negative effects, with only minor losses to turning. This horse can only manifest briefly outside of the near vicinity of it's rider, and attempts by Caligetta to get it to stud have failed, the horse apparently having no interest in other animals for reproductive purposes.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Tsukimon Arata
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Screen Name:</span></span> 空WATARI物

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 16

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> Tsukimon has a very 'intense' bearing, her eyes staring <span class=""bb-i"">through</span> most people rather than at them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Japan

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Warrior-like to the core, but with the cover of a yamato nadeshiko. Tsukimon was raised to be both the perfect daughter and the ideal son, unquestioning, strong and loyal with a softness to them. This contradiction of an upbringing has created a girl who projects the air of someone important, the odd but functional combination of a charismatic princess and a warlord. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> The Arata, a once powerful family of warrior-nobility who turned to the underworld in the late 1700s. To this day, they enjoy vast amounts of wealth off of the debts and blood of others, although much of it is now money simply because they had money. The business world, local governments, the police, the yakuza – the Arata have their influence and power through out Japan.

Their ways are still very much steeped in the 1700s, following a strict 'code' under which they operate. The son of the Arata oyabun would be the heir, and the daughter would be used to further the spread of influence. The son would be the 'warrior', and the daughter the 'politician'. This was not the case with Tsukimon.

A rare single child of the Arata, and a daughter at that, left Tsukimon to fulfil both roles for her father, but she was far more attracted to the 'warrior' aspect of her upbringing than anything else. She took to the teachings of justice and order with no problem, all the while shunning any attempts to make her more 'princess' like beyond the purely aesthetic. 

Tsukimon is not a dumb girl. It did not take long for her to notice that the unsavoury actions of her family were far from the 'justice' she had been raised with, but kept her comments to herself. Rather than voice her troubles, she attempted to fix the wrongs she perceived – by challenging her father to a duel to decide who would lead the family. 

She was talented, but she was not an adult, nor did she have the experience of her father. An incredibly one sided match nearly lead to the death of Tsukimon, and it was as much guranteed...until that was not the case.

Her first transformation lasted for no longer than two seconds, enough time for her body to react and win the duel, killing her father. He was not the only one to die that day, at least not from Tsukimon's perspective. She had, for all intents and purposes, lost. It was only the intervention of power beyond her own which saved her. 

She left her home in search of penance, all the while taking up the mantle of 'Magical Girl'.

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level:</span> Veteran

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Swordsman</span> – Tsukimon's ability would be nothing without her considerable talent with a sword. The Arata were a family of swordsmen prior to their business in the underworld, but they never ceased to refine their art. Even at the age of 11, Tsukimon could have been called a warrior of the blade, but her technique has reached new levels in her battles against the Errors. It follows that she is athletic.

<span class=""bb-i"">Calligraphy</span> - One of the hobbies pushed upon her. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Cooking</span> - One of the hobbies pushed upon her. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">First Act - Izanagi, the Godspeed</span> – The sole power of Tsukimon is her great speed, surpassing even the enhanced agility of a standard magical girl by several leagues. She can, in turn, process at these speeds.

<span class=""bb-i"">Second Act - Many Armed Kannon</span> - A development on Izanagi, Tsukimon pushes her abilities to the limit for a brief moment, creating the heavenly illusion of having multiple arms, each swinging a blade in sync with one another. In total, there are 10 blows, occurring at a near-simultaneous speed. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Divine Wind</span> - If Many Armed Kannon is the limit of Tsukimon's speed, then Divine Wind is the limit of her power. Tsukimon makes use of an Iado form, sheathing her blade, and after a moment of focus, unsheathes her the blade with all her might. In combination with Izanagi, this creates a gust of wind comparable to a small, localized typhoon, easily devastating an entire street.

<span class=""bb-i"">First Act - Izanami, Eyes of Life and Death</span> - Tsukimon has developed a form of battle precognition over her years as a Magical Girl, allowing her to accurately guess the next movement of an enemy up to two seconds prior to the action taking place, a long time for her. It cannot be called a 'power' as much as it is a trained instinct. She has yet to inform anyone of this ability.</div>"

Name: Catherine Krause  

Screen name: Songofyourpeoples

Age: 14  

Nationality: Canada   

Personality: Catherine is someone who likes to appreciate the smaller joys of life - peace, quiet and a night sky unspoiled by city lights - or, alternatively the splendour of the bright lights of a nighttime city work perfectly well for her too. While she is normally a kind, helpful girl willing to help out people in need, she can occasionally fall too deep into focus when listening to or composing her own music and may be temporarily irritable if she is forcefully snapped out of it.  
 
Biography: Born in Germany, Catherine's family immigrated to Canada when Catherine was young. She spent her life there, eventually earning a citizenship when she was nine. She spent her days in school, had friends and lived a happy life. The traditional Canadian tale of an immigrant family achieving their dreams in the land of new beginnings that was Canada.   

Although her family had no particular history in the musical world, Catherine found herself attracted to the musical arts from a young age. Begging her parents, they began her with violin lessons, not discouraging her although they were not fully confident that her interest was genuine instead of a mere childish curiosity. However, when her instructor began speaking to her parents about Catherine's talent and enthusiastically suggested broadening her musical activities, her parents relented. Although their apartment was small, her parents still squeezed in a piano for her to practice with, and soon Catherine was performing songs far beyond what was expected of her age at recitals and concerts.   

It was her interest in music which dragged her into the entire mess, as it all began with a scholarship. Impressed with her musical talents, Catherine was invited to an exchange trip to Italy for a year to attend a school with a prestigious musical program. Agreeing, Catherine boarded a plane and headed for Italy.   

The plane never made it to Italy.   

From causes still yet unknown, the plane was forced to make a crash landing near the Appeline mountains. During the landing Catherine sustained massive burns which left her in an extremely dangerous state. Even as the other passengers called for help, Catherine lay on the wreckage of the plane, her life trickling away.   

That was when a Magical girl saved her. There was no great battle, no enemy to be saved from. It was just a simple question and an answer, and the girl took Catherine away and healed her injuries.   

Managing to contact her parents, Catherine assured them that she was alright and that she had indeed survived the crash. Expressing her desire to continue her time in Italy, she also now had a secret, second reason to stay in Italy - to discover the nature of her new abilities, responsibilities and duties as a magical girl.  

Experience Level: Magical Girl (First Act)   

Skills: 

Music: Aside from having experience on a wide variety of musical instruments, Catherine composes her own music. Although she will never admit it, she composed her own magical girl theme song.   

First Aid - when she first got her abilities as a magical girl, Catherine thought she could use it to heal her allies. While that turned out to not be the case yet, that did not stop her and she learned to heal the mundane, human way, enrolling herself in a first aid course.   

Voice Acting - Catherine is able to drastically change her voice to suit and imitate a variety of people, from six year old kids to mature women. She developed this skill as a hobby, and as such it is nowhere near a professional's skill.    

Magical Power: Time Manipulation - Catherine's magic manifests as the ability to interfere with her target's place with the flow of time.

Abilities:   

First Act: Riavvolgere - The ability to rewind; by focusing her magic Catherine is (supposed to be) able to continually rewind someone or something such as wounds, theoretically being able to heal wounds and injuries by ""reversing the state"" to a point prior to the actual infliction of the wound, or she may be able to rewind an enemy's movements.  

Theoretically.   

In reality, this ability is, in terms of both net damage done to the opponent and in net healing capabilities for herself or her allies completely useless. While she is able to reverse the flow of time, she is unable to also stop the flow of time towards the future - as such, while she is able to force the state of her target to go back five seconds, for example, she is unable to keep the same target from moving five seconds into the future, resulting in a net gain of 0 seconds. In actual, practical combat she is only able to use this ability to keep things in statis, whether they be wounded comrades or enemies. She is unable to help them further, only able to keep them in place. While this ability may be useful in a team situation it had rendered her completely useless independently and as a result has made her much more reliant on allies than other magical girls.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Hua Tsing 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 14(Almost 15)

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Republic of China

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Hua Tsing is both a lady and a boisterous girl cursed with the black mark of Chuunibyou. While in public, she is a proper lady, but in private she is a self styled Wuxia heroine who is obviously(and if not, should be) the center of attention. The capability to make flashy entrances, say haughty words, and defy standards is something she strives for. ""Through inner strength and perseverance I will prevail!"", ""With the will to fight, no mountain will be to high to climb!"", and ""Destiny is in the hands of whoever has the will to shape it!"" are regular lines for her. It can be said that the stronger her opponent is, the more iron her will to win is. She is an expert at trying to look cool, and making entrances is supposedly a specialty. Tsing is also a bit to nationalistic, though in a mostly harmless way.

In public life(and when needed) she is a cool, calm, and collected young lady who lives in formality and is relatively normal otherwise. Despite her boisterous personality as a magical girl, she is fully capable of acting like a proper lady when in public with no problem. It can be said that both aspects of her personality are real, and she has achieved a true, inner balance.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> Despite being a magical girl, Tsing has had a rather uneventful life. Born to a more than well off family in Taiwan, she has had an actually good life. Born with a spirit to strive toward being better, she also had a deep love of old Chinese romances, along with Chinese culture. Further, she is someone who enjoys the newer wuxia stories and their original prototypes- something that led her to training in martial arts as a hobby. 

During a train ride, she had a near death experience when there was an emergency stop. She suffered extensive damage to her head when falling down and likely would've died if her condition wasn't stabilized by a magical girl and she was left at a hospital. After that, she formed a magical girl group with a few others and explored her abilities with them. She is currently in Italy for the long term because of certain educational opportunities and a desire to see Italian culture.

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level:</span> Magical Girl (First Act)

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Wushu</span>- An East Asian umbrella term for most full contact chinese martial art sports. Tsing loves Wushu because she loves Wuxia, and her skill has only increased after becoming a magical girl. She is a very athletic girl who constantly strives to be the best.

<span class=""bb-i"">Charisma</span>- Befitting for a person in her magical girl group, she is naturally charismatic- Without a doubt, a true young lady who lives in formality.

<span class=""bb-i"">Cooking</span>- She is an above average cook when it comes to chinese dishes, but if she's put near anything else, it will only end in tears and empty stomachs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power:</span>
(First Act) Bodhisattva Palm: Fist of the Enlightened Being- A technique that combines magical energy and life energy into a martial arts style based on breathing. It allows her to make the body itself a weapon, and her skill in martial arts is intertwined with Hua Tsings magical abilities. In simplified terms, this ability allows her to manipulate this energy in and around her body for various uses. When used in hand to hand combat, its possible to actually punch something without even physically touching it, or to punch through objects. When used against objects or living beings, its possible to destroy them inside out with her strikes. In an essense, one isn't only being attacked by her fists or body, but also this energy.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: Jessica Sullivan

<span class=""bb-b"">Screen name</span>: (Originally Mystic Ivy) Currently Saintly Ivy 

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 16

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>: (Words work, as does a picture. If you use a picture, place it at the top of the sheet)

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality</span>: America

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>: Enjoys caring for others and is always ready to make you a warm meal, quick to comfort others, but at the same time she will scold those she feels out of line and can come across as domineering. She does not like admitting she is wrong. Her take on protecting people is just that, invisible defenders, they should do their best to avoid revealing themselves but the protection of others comes first.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>: Born into a well off family, her parents raised her to be a well-mannered young lady. When they would go out to parties and donate large amounts of money to charities, she would give her spare money to strangers and cook for her friends. Sure she could have had others to cook it for her, but she enjoyed the act of cooking herself.

She was also well educated. Her parents could easily afford to send her to a private school and supplement her education with tutors. This left her with an education far exceeding that of a public school, but at the same time, so certain of her knowledge that she often refuses to admit she is wrong until shown solid evidence that she is wrong.

Adding to her education and upbringing her parents forced fencing and violin onto her, claiming hobbies would make her more ""well rounded,"" well, one of these would make her experience as a magical girl easier, the other would just be good for entertaining. She also practiced gymnastics of her own volition, helping increase her flexibility and agility and keeps her own portion of the garden as her own, declaring that she would care for it herself

When she was twelve, she had left her house to spend time with her friends. One of them, Olivia, wandered off from the group and Jessica left the others to go find her. In an alley, she was attacked by a large creature. It looked more metal than flesh with rending metal claws and gnashing jaws of half metal and half teeth. Her rescuer swooped down and killed the beast. It was over in an instant. She barely even recalled looking at her savior, having no real recollection of the events or her appearance. She recalls the girl touching her and feeling a light, then she was gone. Jessica and her friends never found Olivia. The police investigation never turned up any leads and so Olivia vanished from their lives.

Jessica decided to try and fight back against those creatures that had attacked her and most likely killed her friend, in order to protect others. She somehow knew about her new abilities, perhaps something her savior had said that she couldn't quite remember.

Despite herself, she had trouble finding more of the monsters to fight, and the few she did, she couldn't quite defeat being forced to retreat, her fencing skills and sword proving inadequate to defeat them. In time she was taken under the wing of another, Claudette.

During her time under Claudette, Jessica learned how to use her newfound power to defeat the errors, and eventually discovered her ability to control the growth and form of plants. Claudette told to try and fashion the plants into a weapon, but it proved difficult and inefficient as a sword, a club was unwieldy and barbaric, so she settled on a whip made from a rose. After a lot of trial and error and just as many bandages, Jessica had a weapon fit to use against the errors.

When Jessica was 15, Claudette moved on, mostly because of the smaller number of errors appearing in the city. In that time, however, Jessica had learned how to strengthen her rose whip, so that it wouldn't break or be cut when striking metal or struck by something sharp, as well as enhancing her plant growth powers so that she could greatly enhance the speed with which a plant would sprout to full size, as well as grow just about anywhere, digging through concrete and metal to reach soil, even as a seed.

Now, she's managed to talk her parents into letting her attend her final years of school, overseas, in Italy. Even in Europe, she her parents will send her money whenever she needs(but surely even this will have limits if she presses too hard).

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level</span>: Veteran

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills</span>: Fencing, gardening, cooking, athletic/gymnast, a plethora of useless trivia about various fictional series(including some magical girl anime), Exotic Weapons(Whips)

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power</span>: 

<span class=""bb-u"">Plant Manipulation(First Act)</span>: Allows Jessica to control the growth speed and pose plants, to an extent. This skill has almost no combat use without a little creativity. 

<span class=""bb-u"">Rose Whip(First Act)</span>: Expanding on her Plant Manipulation, Jessica is able to craft certain melee weapons from plants, her favorite being the rose whip, which is basically and elongated and flexible rose stem, covered in thorns and enhanced by her magic, it causes deep cuts. It can be retracted back into a normal rose.

<span class=""bb-u"">Plant Manipulation Mk2(Second Act)</span>: Through use of her powers and practice, Jessica has unlocked further power and control over it, allowing her to almost instantly sprout a tree from a seed or use a vine as a weapon with which to grab and bind her opponent(as just a couple examples). She now carries seeds with her to use to sprout her plants, that can now grow in any terrain, provided they can still reach the soil below it, sometimes quite difficult in cities. This also allows her to redirect her rose whip, mid attack, however it causes a loss in momentum, and thus attack damage.</div>"

Name: Silviana ""Silvia"" Amello 

Age: 14

Nationality: Italy (Milan)

Personality: Silviana is always upbeat and filled with energy. The amount of energy and pep in her step she displays is merely a fragment of her true potential. If the full power of her upbeat happiness was to be released, the world itself would be changed forever. As one would expect from someone as energetic as her, she is incredibly optimistic, and its often infectious. Its really hard to be pessimistic and or sad around her, and one of her smiles is sure to make everybody who sees it smile as well.

Despite her overbearing optimism, she is isn't an idealist, nor idiotic enough to not see the world around her. She very much understands the evil and cruelty in the world, and its partly why she is the optimist that she is. Its not that she enjoys making others happy (Not that it is a downside, she does enjoy making others smile), its too keep herself happy midst the world she lives in. Silvia is one who truly understands the evil and hardships that lurk around every corner in the world, but does all in her power to make sure the influences never manage to get a hold of her. 

As friendly as she seems, and really is, she truly believes herself to be the strongest Magical Girl. She often comes off as domineering, and while she doesn't do this on purpose, she isn't exactly going to deny it. With her heritage and idea that she is the best, she often acts like like she is of royalty, proper posture, speech, and so on.

She fights to keep her people safe, as she regrets doing so through politics. <span class=""bb-s"">Politics is JUST like a meguca fight.</span> On top of that, she legitimately finds it fun. 

To sum her up, she is an <span class=""bb-s"">kawaii princessu</span> optimistic ball of energy who acts like <span class=""bb-s"">ojou-sama</span> she is better than the rest as nicely as she can. Oh, and she likes cats. That's important.

Biography: Silviana was born the daughter of a famous politician within Italy. Her father had been serving as part of the Italian Parliament for several years now, and raised Silvia as his heiress. The Amello family was to become a long line of politicians, that would one day climb the letter to Prime Minister and or President. He had absolutely no faith in Silviana reaching this goal, nor did she, but maybe future generations would. Silvia was fine with this, and as long as she managed to become a known politician, she would be completing her reason to exist. 

She did ask her father why he was a politician, and why she should follow, with his answer being "" To save those of our grand nation. "" Since he was a politician, he was probably lying, but it did fool Silviana into adopting the same ideology. Sure, the rest of the world could be destroyed by Aliens, but as long as Italy was safe, it was fine by her. 

Silvia was on her way to a beautiful career until the night she was saved. It was a standard political dinner, with a good number of Italy's politicians located there. Italy is still one of the most catholic countries in the world, and arguably the most catholic within Europe, having the Vatican City within it's capital. Italy has been the target of several terrorist attacks, most of which have failed, but this one wouldn't. 

Similar to the 1969 Piazaa Fantana bombing, another region within the city of Milan was bombed, killing a decent number of politicians, including her father. Silvia was going to die on this night, but she was saved. 

Well, saved depending on how you look at it. Some wish for the sweet embrace of death, but since she wasn't one of them, she was thankful to be given another chance of life. She was even given the power to become a magical girl, so really, it was a win win situation. Besides that whole, dead Dad thing, and her political dreams in shambles. She knew that she would be targeted again, so she gave up those dreams, and would protect her people using her new gift. 

Experience Level: Magical Girl 

Skills: 

Lying: Given Silvia's political upbringing, she can lie with the biggest politicians in the world. 

Gymnastics: Something she picked up for her to be active, as no other activity really appealed to her.

Keen eyesight: Silvia has extremely sharp eyesight, noticing small details that most wouldn't be able to notice, and being able to follow things moving at extreme speeds. 

Mathematics: Silvia can do calculations within her head. This mixed with her eyesight allows for her to make sure her aim is spot on.

Magical Power: 
Raggio di Luce, Power From the Heavens: Silviana's power as a magical girl is her ability to have mobile artillery she can summon to assist her. She can aim and fire them at will, but it limits the amount she can use, and they aren't very accurate. If people were to man these weapons, they would increase with accuracy, and Silvia would be able to summon as much as she pleases. Of course, when she runs out of magical energy, she won't be able to summon more.

They fire magical energy, but can use any projectiles you put into them. If the cannon fires magical energy instead of a projectile, it will disappear, and another must be summoned in its place. Each piece of the artillery is covered with Roman symbols.</div>"

Name: Adalina Corvi

Age: 14

Appearance: Up there

Nationality: Italy (Sicily)

Personality: Adalina is very sharp and has strong, albeit quite peculiar sense of justice. She is very serious about fighting Errors in order to set things right and won't tolerate any slip-ups from her fellow underlings. Her strictness with other magical girls stems mostly from idea that there only have to be so many magical girls, as long as they are perfectly trained and don't die, so that recruiting new ones as cannon fodder won't be necessary anymore. The less people there are in harms way, the better.


Biography:
Adalina was born as the daughter of a successful lawyer and his wife on the beautiful island of Sicily. Thanks to her father's work her family never had any money problems, they traveled whenever she had holidays, they had a big house with a swimming pool and even their own little yacht. In her childish naivete, she always thought that these happy times would continue for ever and ever. But of course, that wasn't the case.

In a dark summer night, it already had been several months after her tenth birthday, her father woke her up and told her to quickly get dressed because they had to go on vacation right now. Adalina never had questioned things much before, so she did as she was told, got into the passenger seat of their Alfa Romeo and fell asleep again moments after. When she awoke again they were already passing through Naples and she realized that something was missing, or more precisely, someone.

However, no matter how often she asked her father where her mother was, the answer was always the same: ""I'll explain everything once we're there, so just be a good girl until then.""
'There' in this case was a villa on the outskirts of Rome which, even though it wasn't as big or luxurious as their home, was quite nice to look at and most important of all, had a small pool too.

After they had unloaded their luggage, which seemed awfully little for a vacation, and brought it inside, her father sat down with Adalina in her, as she would find out moments later, new bedroom in order to answer her questions. That day she learned a lot about her family, which she never even would've dreamed of. Apparently, her father had been working for the mafia for years and not only part time, while her mother was supposedly an undercover cop, who quite literally got under his covers with unexpected results.

End of the story was that she quit her job and became a full time mother, however a major figure of the Sicily underworld had gotten wind of it recently and had sent someone to get rid of her and the rest of the family. Her father had managed to fend of the killer however not before he had managed to critically injure her mother, so the only possible way to save her was to call an ambulance for her, which of course would also invite the police, once the medics discovered the gun wounds and corpse.

Long story short, they were in Rome now because they had to hide from the police and the mafia, while her mother was fighting for her life and probably would never see them again, even if she survived, because she would have to join a witness protection program to be completely safe.

Adalina took it better than expected, as she started to cry like mad, ran out of the house and as far as she could away from the creature that called himself her father. She only stopped when it started to rain and she had to huddle under a tree in a park, so that she wouldn't get completely soaked. It was also there that she had her first contact with a being known as Error, when it tried to eat her. The big mouth and rows of teeth looked like an endless void that came closer and closer and would have surely swallowed her whole, if not for some girl in a frilly dress, who saved her at the last second and gave her the gift of being a magical girl.

From that moment on she swore to herself that she would bring justice to those who thought they could get away with lying, killing, cheating and stealing. Not a double-faced justice like that of her father, who worked for good and bad alike, no true justice, her justice.


Experience Level: Veteran

Skills: 

Law knowledge: Since her father is a lawyer, she knows more than your average young girl about the things you're not allowed to do and what kind of punishment you'll have to face, if you do it anyway.

Leadership: Adalina is convinced that she was born to be a leader and that she always gives the right orders at the right moment, in order to achieve perfect results.

Punishment: Punishing others in the perfect way, so that they grow through the experience without taking (too much) damage.

Personal Trainer: Going hand in hand with the above, she is also a competent, though demanding, training instructor, when it comes to magical girl or school related stuff.

Yo-yo: Adalina mastered the ancient art of the Yo-yo and can even perform tricks with it.


Magical Power:  Adalina's Magical Power revolves around the concept of ultimate justice, with herself as the judge. Naturally, this also means that it is slightly biased, since it will never work against her, as of course she is the pinnacle of true justice.


Records of Guilt (First Act):
A book which let's her look into the past of any being on earth, allowing her to find out about the misdeeds they have done. Be it the stealing of cookies, putting a tack on the teachers chair or the killing of Magical Girls, nothing will be hidden from her, as long as they feel guilty about it and she knows their name.


Wheel of Justice (First Act): 
Adalina's weapon of choice, a big wheel attached to a chain, which she normally carries around on her back. The damage it does increases exponentially to the amount of guilt someone or something has burdened themselves with in Adalina's eyes.


Chains of Hell (Second Act):
Much like her wheel, these chains get stronger, the more guilt someone possesses in her eyes. They appear from various magic circles around her target and are infinitely long. While they wrap around the enemy, they continuously twist and tighten, in order to rid them of any kind of mobility or way to free themselves. If they have done truly horrible stuff, then the chain can even manage to tear of appendages.</div>"

Name: Oxana Golova  
Age: 13 
Nationality: Russian

Personality: A good brief description of Oxana's thoughts and feelings on life as well as being a magical girl is simple thus; 'All obstetrical are meant to be over come'. Oxana is a rather serious little girl, even before she was called to the rather serious work of facing monsters for the greater good of the universe. She was described as a '80 year old codger in a child's body' by members of her family. That not to say she is with out humor, it is just very rare. If anything her often to serious and straight forward attitude is the source of humor to others as she is left confused as to why people are laughing at what she had just said or done. She is stupidly courageous and dedicated to any task she under takes. Just as she us unlikely to turn her back on a half finished job, she is unlikely to turn or flee from a battle unless urged to do so by others. Her world is black and white, Do or Die, Wind or lose, Success or failure . There is no try in her vocabulary.    

Biography: Anna's Parents died in an major car crash when she was still not even a year old. She never knew her father or mother and has only ever seen them in pictures or old videos. She was Raised primarily by her grand father which likely explains a lot about her. Abram Golova, a former Spetsnaz operative. He has since retired from the military and runs his own Sambo establishment, teaching unarmed combat when he wasn't taking care of his dear grand child. A ridged and grizzled bear of a man who's military life styles has definitely rubbed off on his grand daughter. She spent much of her child hood following his advice and example of working her very hardest at everything she was tasked with. Diligent in school and at home, she even took to the rather rigors Sambo Training her grandfather offered her. Albeit a far watered down version compared to the classes her father gave to train young men looking to get work as body guards or when he was breaking in a troup of local military or police rookies, but training none the less) she even took to playing with a sort of ridged focus and calculation that made it seem more like a chore to some of her friends than actual fun and games. 
One day while while she was playing hide and seek with her friend ( she was the seeker and was systematically combing the near by woods for signs of anyone hiding ) she was suddenly attacked by a monster, a beast of metal and ice. She ran from it, driven by a deep fear that only surfaces when one is faced with the horrifyingly unknown of the world. When she could no longer continue to run and it seemed all hope was lost as Mysterious girl came from seemingly know where and engaged the Error in combat. A fierce battle ensued, a chunk of wood from a tree decimated by a swing of the beasts power limbs destroyed her left eye. But despite the grievous injury the monster was defeated and she was saved. She passed out shortly after and then woke to the sight of her grandfather as she lay in a hospital bed. When visiting hours were over and all others had left the Mysterious woman returned, apologized from not arriving sooner or being ably to save her eye. She also explained what her saving Oxana's life meant for her and how her life would never be the same. Oxana took to the calling with pride and fierce determination. The world had become black and white for her. There was evil out there, she had been saved by good and given the power to do good, and it was now her job to save the world from similar evil that once threatened her life. 

Experience Level:Magical girl, though still fairly green  

Skills: Sambo Style Hand to Hand. Think of Sambo as militarized Judo with Krav Maga Sprinkles; while there is sports Sambo, what Oxana's learned from her grandfather was military Sambo. With this understanding of martial arts even before she developed the greater strength and speed of the Magical girl she could have pushed around kids that were a head taller than her and thirty pounds heavier. 

Great diligances and focus: Oxana takes to tasks with all the intensity of croc attacking its prey. Once she got her teeth into a project, job, or goal she is almost impossible to shake loose from it. 

Resliant: Oxana, perhaps due to the virtues of her strict military up bringing, perhaps from practicing martial arts from a very young age, or maybe simple because she is from one of the colder corners of Russia, but she is a rather durable young woman. She Is rarely found complaining about unpleasant conditions of any sort or likewise put off or deterred by such things. Similarly she isn't all that intimidated by out and out pain either. Having a big jagged bit of wood crushing your eye and half fracturing your ocular socket will make most pain seem rather trivial to you to.

Magical Power: ""Shadow"" 
Oxana has the ability to manipulate her Shadow. At first all she could do as make it larger or smaller despite the presence of or lack of light. When transformed to magical girl, when in complete darkness, or stretched to overlap natural shadows, her shadow appears as a white rather than a black one. She found with practice that she could manipulate it further into what she callas her three basic 'constructs'. The general strength and power of each various on how large she has stretched out her shadow. The more she spread and grows her shadow the less mobile she is able to be and the more of her stamina it drains. 

Construct Arms
From her shadow a pair of great ghastly arms rise up to grip or strike at her foes. She can normalcy get two or three good solid movements out of them before they retreat back into her shadow. They aren't particularly fast or graceful but they are fairly strong. Best used for slowing down or restraining monsters or delivering a blow or two to stun unsuspecting errors.

Construct pillar
A swift and singular attack, unlike the more complicated arms. She raises a circular pillar up from her shadow like a dark column. Given it is blunt in nature its unlikely to really kill anything, but it shoots up with significant force, greater than what the arms constructs can produce. She has used this to sucker punch larger foes or launch smaller ones away. She has even used it to launch her self when she needs to get to or away someplace at a good speed.

Construct Cloak. 
Her shadow wraps about her or up to 3 others and renders them one with the darkness, unable to be seen in what ever darkness they are blending into. A purely stealth skill, she personally cannot use her shadow to attack from this construct but can conceal others for the to prepare for an attack. If anyone makes a movement as significant as a step the concealment will be broken from the entire party. Best used for stake outs, sneak attacks, or disappearing when one doesn't wish to be found.</div>"

Name: Makoto Takai 

Screen name: No Errornet account at the current moment 

Age: 14

Appearance: When she is in her magical girl form, she wears a similar yellow-black pleated skirt, but she also wears pouches all over the place as well as several metal guards and back-holsters for 3 guns and a bow. Her hair also gets blue highlights at the tips.

Nationality: Japan  

Personality: Makoto is extremely brash and almost tomboyish as well as pretty brazen while also being very physical, aka almost violent. With her words she is oftentimes painfully frank causing her to unintentionally hurt people with what she is saying.
However, she is very bold and will never back out of any fight, no matter how much the odds are stacked against her. As well as that, she is very dependable and will not abandon her comrades and friends even if it should cost her own life.
Although her flaws are pretty obvious and probably quite annoying for other people, her jokes and her normally fun attitude make up for it. And her cheeky side is mostly not harmful and also generally fun to spectate.
 
Biography:  The Takai family was a Yakuza-Clan, the Japanese Mafia, so Makoto grew up wielding all kinds of weapons and honing her physical abilities. At the age of 11, her father proudly presented her with the family heirloom, an old Japanese arquebuse, a Tanegashima, engraved with their clan symbol. This meant a lot for Makoto. For once, it meant, her parents had given up to produce a male heir, secondly they had made her the official heir of the Takai-Clan. 
So Makoto honed her gunnery skills, especially with weapons from the 18th and 19th century.
On her 14th birthday, her Yakuza-mates gifted her a Pattern 1853 Enfield rifled musket on which she practiced day and night from now on with her new weapon so she could use it as some kind of sniper weapon.
A bit later that year, her parents decided to take Makoto with them to a meeting with a Mafia-group they tried to have dealings with.

However, upon landing on a private air strip north of Naples, her family got attacked by a group of mercenaries. Makoto had to watch as her entire family and all her friends got gunned down on the landing strip. The bullets that hit her, weren't lethal. Just as the mercs wanted to finish her off, a magical girl saved her and awakened her powers as magical girl herself.
After experiencing the real horror of crime, Makoto decided to head into Rome to train how to be a magical girl, this time, to help people.

Experience Level: Greenhorn  

Skills: 
<span class=""bb-i"">Gunnery:</span>  Makoto is extremely skilled with guns, all kinds of guns. From the standard pistol to the rocket launcher and even traditional longbows, there is no projectile weapon she isn't able to use, or if she has never encountered it before, she is able to learn how to use it efficiently very quickly.

<span class=""bb-i"">Athleticism:</span> Despite her looks, Makoto is extremely durable and physically strong. She can handle herself in most hand-to-hand engagements and can jump pretty well.

<span class=""bb-i"">Music:</span> Although her training schedule was packed full in her childhood, Makoto still had the time to learn to play the E-Guitar. She'd loved to have learned more musical instruments, but for that, she didn't have enough room. Nevertheless, she enjoys listening to a lot of music in her downtime.

<span class=""bb-i"">Historical Knowledge:</span> Even though her looks deceive, Makoto is the go-to person for questions of historical nature. She can tell you almost anything about history one can think of and if she doesn't know the answer to a given question, she will quickly come back to you with the correct one and have studied that new knowledge by hard.

Magical Power: At this point in time, Makoto has no magical abilities. She currently relies on her skills with the gun to defeat her enemies.</div>"

Though not particularly popular, Annie does have a serious and strong group of friends at school. 

Biography: Annie grew up with two parents, a baby brother, and a cat. On her twelfth birthday she was attacked by an Error that would have killed her if not for Mary Beth, a magical girl who Annie later discovered had been trained by her own grandmother.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 
13 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> 
Blonde hair tied into a ponytail with a white bow-tie. She has clear blue eyes and a heart shaped face and large eyes.  Her Magical Girl attire is a white and blue-trimmed tunic with a thin golden heart emblazoned on the center. Her outfit is sleeveless and she wears white arm-length gloves with golden bracers, silver hand guards, and a ring on each middle finger. She has a short golden cape that covers her shoulders and comes with a hood and with her personal 'coat-of-arms' emblazoned on it: two hands crossing together to form a pair of blue wings with a white shield at their center; wears white pants covered at the sides and back by a plain long skirt. The skirt itself parts in the middle, opening up space for her legs to move. Her Focus is embedded into the outfits chest area.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Welsh  

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> 
She's usually timid and shy and rarely likes to bring attention to herself. Often times, people even forget that she's there - not that she minds. Her belief is that she's most useful being in support, and as such it's not her job to be noticed. She's a hard worker in everything that she does. Very mature for her age, she always tries to think things through before acting - although this trait is hampered by inexperience and childish temperaments. Once, however, you do something that greatly displeases her, expect a stern scolding and a lecture. Even adults are subject to this, much to their bemusement. She rarely gets angry, and if she does she does not stay that way for long. Seren when it comes to other people is shy, but genuinely cares for their well-being, even those of people that she doesn't know. If you need a shoulder to cry on or person to listen to, then Seren would gladly show up.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> 
Seren is a bit more fortunate than other Magical Girls. Her family is complete and her daily life is relatively happy. What pushed her into becoming a Magical Girl was her death. 

In hindsight, perhaps she was not <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> fortunate.

Her encounter with an Error happened little more than three years ago. She was separated from her parents, lost and tired. That was when the Error appeared. It was impossible for a Magical Girl to fight one without transforming, and they had enhanced capabilities beyond normal, so what more could a regular 9 year old do? Nothing much except to roll over and die. The error obliterated one whole side of her body, and she was definitely dead . . . except, she did not die.

It was a team of Magical Girls, who upheld ideals of the most classic vein: fighting to protect people, treasuring smiles, and giving it their all. One of them possessed healing abilities that reached the pinnacle of a Magical Girls abilities. Seren woke up to the sight of them fighting the Error and her healer looking down at her with a smile as she explained the situation. As a girl that was already a firm lover of fairy tale ideals, the sight of these girls drew unrivaled admiration. When she was told that she had the same potential as them, she of course asked to become one immediately. It was a quick decision, aided by her hero worship at the time and her innate sense or responsibility.

Since then, Seren has done her best to uphold her ideals of protecting people and being a defender of everyone's smiles. It's a slow process, and she was noted to be absolutely terrible at offense, but she tries anyway. To her, it's not so much as power but more on what you can do with it.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Experience Level:</span> Upper Greenhorn  

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills:</span> 
Finding good choke points, kiting, excellent at crowd control and over all is very good at defensive and retreating strategies. Her skill set is all tailored to defense. Personal skills involve cooking, cleaning, studying and singing. She can play the piano too. Seren's good at budgeting as well.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Power:</span> 
Shields! Currently, she is only able to summon a set number of shields. The number grows or lessens depending on the size and strength of the shields she summons. They have no special attributes other than taking a lot of damage before breaking. Her summoning speed is of note though, as they appear as soon as she thinks of them and apparently have little drain on her. She has no abilities yet.</div></div>"

People milled around their business, classes were over for the day and the common people on the street remained in blissful ignorance of the dangers that existed right around them, a danger fought in a secret war waged by magical girls. 

One such girl, Catherine, sat in a cafe in the ""territory"" claimed by her group. It was a nice little cafe, known as Zepelli's, and the girl was simply waiting, listening to music with a cup of coffee in her hands as she waited for the other girls of her group; fellow magical girls who had formed a group for companionship and teamwork.</div>"

The hunt was dull.

After five years of the same thing, wandering from city to city, nation to nation, exterminating the Errors, Tsukimon Arata had finally come to this conclusion. Initially it had been difficult, as it was with any activity one was new at, but after the first year the risky edge had begun to fade more and more with each passing day. Of all the Errors she had fought, only one stuck out in her mind, the one which she had failed to kill - and the one which had not killed her.

Foolishness.

Tsukimon closed her eyes, sitting with the left leg out and the other knee raised, resting her right arm across the knee and her back to a wall. The vacant warehouse Silva and herself had claimed in San Lorenzo was like the many others in this area - big, spacious and formerly used by art students from the near by University. They went unchecked by any local authority for the most part, and it had become a sort of tradition for students to turn these places into their 'studios' of work. It was a decent enough cover, even if she was the only one who could possibly pass for a university student...just. To help pass this off, Tsukimon had spent the better part of a week brushing up on her caligraphy and artistic skills to leave around the place on giant canvases in classic student style. If it were up to her though, the place would be spartan besides maybe a few beds and a kitchen area to work with. Heating and electricity were not a problem either. Mob money did wonders, and her grandfather was nice enough to treat her like a princess still.     

All in all, it was starting to look pretty homey, and that was not something Tsukimon was all too eager about. She was what errornet dubbed a 'Wandering Magical Girl', and she acknowledged this. At this rate however, she might just start becoming attached to the warehouse and her team. How frustrating. She had been making an effort to be a leader for this 'team' of theirs while at the same time remaining distant - but that was not going well. She lead, yes, but trying to remain professional and formal with the others was difficult. Marie and her cooking was mostly to blame.

Damn Marie and her absurdly good cooking.

A sigh escaped Tsukimon's lips, moving her mind away from such thoughts and onto nothingness, taking this peaceful moment to meditate...or sleep, depending on who you asked.</div>"

Since she still had to attend school as a guy, she had to learn how to get through the school day without running out of magic. In the beginning, it was struggle; she had to take frequent bathroom breaks and spent her entire lunch period somewhere out of sight to recover what little magical power she could. She also had countless close calls, where she was slowly changing back in front of other people. Despite now having superpowers, her life was a nightmare.

Granted things did start to get better; it became easier to maintain her male form, and she also found a therapeutic way to let off steam, destroying Errors. She also found a support group of sorts in the form of a Magical Girl team, something that felt really strange to Jasmine. Despite now having a female body, her mind was still very much male, and she was also approaching 'that' part of her life. Although she didn't really have any romantic feelings for any of them right now, it served as a bitter reminder that she'd never find a romantic partner. While she was still too young to be obsessing over something like that, she was still old enough that the thought that it was no longer possible for her was depressing. Being trapped in a girl's body was horrible for Jasmine, so much so that she hid her original gender from her teammates out of shame.

'It's sad really; mom sent me here in hopes of killing my dream to save me, and I end up in more danger then my dad was in at his job' Jasmine thought bitterly as she walked to the team's hideout; an apartment that Jessica had bought for them. It was insane really; the thought of a girl being from a family so rich that they could just give their daughter the money to buy an apartment. Reaching the door, she pulled out her key and unlocked the door ""hey! Anyone here yet?"" she asked as she entered</div>"

However, that changed rather quickly when she saw one of her comrades in arms and friends sitting at one of the tables, already enjoying the divine nectar of the gods, known as coffee. She waved at Catherine, walked over to the table and sat down across from her, letting a long sigh escape from her mouth as she leaned back and finally allowed herself to relax.

""Did your parents tell you the same things over and over again, as if you were baby, when you still were living back in Canada, Cath? I swear, either my father has temporal amnesia whenever he's going on a business trip, or he thinks I'm still and will forever be 5 years old. 'Don't let any people into the house you don't know. No parties. No boys. The wine cabinet is taboo. Remember to brush your teeth at least twice a day. Don't stay up too late. No playing around with your friends until you've done your homework. Oh and of course, no boys'. It's like a broken recording, which just repeats itself over and over again.""

Seeing as her friend already had something to drink, Adalina waved the friendly woman in her early twenties known as Maria, who worked at the cafe, over to them to order something herself.

""Good afternoon, Maria! Could you get me a cup of coffee too, please? The smell of Cath's will just make me drool all over the table otherwise. Oh and Cath, do you think we should get some cake right away, too? The double chocolate colossus looks especially delicious~""</div>"

Sam was the first to greet Jasmine as she entered the apartment, though she didn't bother looking up at the other girl's arrival either. She was sat in the living room, leaned back in one of the arm chairs, quite contently reading a book. It was <span class=""bb-i"">The Subtle Knife</span> by Philip Pullman, one of several books she had brought from home when she had moved into Jessica's apartment. ""How was your day?"" she added absent-mindedly, less because she actually cared about Jasmine's time at school and more because she just wanted to seem polite. 

Sam hadn't been to school for a couple of weeks now. What was the point, really? She had no real friends back in England, nor did she ever feel she'd ever be able to graduate, be able to go to college with decent grades and get a normal job. Or live a normal live, not that she wanted to. What was so great about being normal anyway? She'd been given this power thanks to Annie, and she was determined to make good use of it. 

And, after all, it was Annie who had suggested she come to Rome.

""They've got more magical girls over there,"" Annie had once told her while the two had been sat at the computer. Annie, or QueenOfWands as she called herself online, had shown Sam the Errornet. It was like a support site for magical girls, teaching them about their powers, how they worked. It was pretty amazing, actually. Sam had gotten herself registered. As Annie had used the name of a Tarot Card for her screen name, Sam had done the same and registered under TarotIX. 

Tarot IX, the ninth card the major Arcana: the Hermit.

""Why the Hermit?"" Annie had asked, somewhat surprised. She had been sure Sam would choose something like the Magician, or maybe the Sun or Moon or Star cards.

""Well..."" Sam had mumbled in a somewhat embarrassed fashion. ""My magical girl form sort of looks like the Hermit, doesn't it?""

But in truth, the reason she had chosen the Hermit had nothing to do with looks.

Now, Sam sighed to herself as she turned the page of her book, pushing away depressing thoughts and hoping to lose herself once again in a world of magic and wonder.</div>"

Are you even a man?! Take responsibility! Tell me to my face that you're looking to pick a fight with a 14 year old girl!""
The man looked around nervously, finding him surrounded by a large group who would probably take the girl's words at face value. The crowd that had formed watched with rapt attention at the confrontation between the young teenager and mid-20s salaryman.
""But... I didn't mean to bump into you. It's a big crowd. And I'm apologizing,"" the man said hesitantly.
""So you're trying to get my attention so you can sex me, you sick pervert?! SELF DEFENSE OVERDRRIVE!"" the girl shouted indignantly, before performing a well formed if heavily improvised kick into the man's leg, the man falling over with a grimace.
""What the f- OW! God damn it, what did I do to you?!""
""Insult my honor!"" the girl replied, giving him a light tap to the head that would knock him conscious.
Murmurs about the damn sex offenders in this town and where to get the self defense classes she was taking went unnoticed as Caligetta strolled into the nearby cafe: Zepelli's.
She sat down at the only table with familiar faces and greeted her comrades with a nod.
""Could you add another coffee please? Two sugars. And milk.""</div>"

She'd gotten a couple weird looks as she carried it through the streets, towards the apartment, but she paid them no mind. 

Jessica arrived at the apartment a short time later, still holding the sack in her arms, only to set it down long enough to fish her key from her pocket. She opened the door behind the younger girl and stepping in, clutching the sack in her arms. Closing the door behind her with her foot, she greeted the other two, ""Good afternoon. How was school today girls?""</div>"

The rest of her collection was piled around her in the section of the warehouse she treated as her own, private quarters. A pair of her imps moved to sort and pile the tomes in a somewhat orderly fashion, so that Lila might be able to return to them when needed. The two growled and mumbled back at each other as they bumped and ran into one another again and again, coming to blows before a mere irritated glance from their mistress set them back to their work. 

With a sigh, the girl turned back to her book, it was a piece on the post modern system that had grown to be called Chaos magick, it was simple enough to understand, but like so many other grimoires and manuals she had read, each new revelation only lead to further questions, which could only be answered by finding older, more indepth books on the subject of magick. Ever since she had been rescued, and her powers awakening, she had felt that this new world she was a part of, must in some way be studied and better understood. What better way than to look at the works of those who claimed to master more traditional forms of magick? She had no idea if they were right or not, but according to the books, that was irrelevant. All that mattered was will, faith, and sacrifice. Be it time, sanity, blood, or life, all power demanded sacrifice. She was determined to discover what sacrifice she was making for hers.</div>"

She wasn't really sure what she wanted to do, as she had no interest in the books Lila got, her morning training was over, and she wasn't in the mood to harass Maria to play a game with her. It would have been better if Lila got political books instead of wasting her time trying to figure out the impossible. Oh well, it was her life, not Silvia's. Just sitting here was boring, and she wasn't going to do it any longer.

. . .

Sadly, there literally wasn't much she could do. She did have a few things in mind for the warehouse to make it a bit more fun, but she would have to speak to Tsukimon about that later. Until she could get that cool Foosball table she wanted, she would just have to deal with basic cable, and basic cable in Italy was really bad. Like, someone from America would probably go insane with basic cable here. However, it did have a news channel that had plenty of politics on it, so that would keep her entertained for a small while. 

On top of watching the television, Silviana began to think about the group she had at hand. All in all, it was a strong group, but it did lack quite a bit. Siliva herself could blowup almost anything in her way, but her weaknesses were obvious and fairly easy to exploit if she wasn't careful. Lila was a strong ally, especially since her ability allowed so much utility, but once again, her weaknesses could be exploited easy if she didn't want her patch. This was the same for both Tsukimon and Maria, even if Maria was more of a support player. Maria was arguably the most useful of the group, but she needed to think of ways to think of their shortcomings. 

<span class=""bb-s"">TL;DR Basic cable in Italy is shit</span></div>"

Cursing under her breath a young girl walking down Rome's streets kicked a few stones lying in her way. Eyes wide open, she scanned the streets for any sign of what she was looking for.
""It's supposed to be easy, damn it!""
Underneath her skirt she touched her flintlock pistol to assure herself of its presence.
She had modified all of her weapons to be able to load a lot more safely and faster than the actual historical weapons could, but she still used the same ammunition for all of them, making them a lot more dangerous than regular bullets.

Finally, after a whole lot of more walking, Makoto arrived at the building described to her.
Shrugging she began to enter the building that looked uncannily like an old warehouse, however she sensed something trying to stop her from marching into that house.
""Is that what she called a <span class=""bb-i"">Magic Barrier</span>? Ah, fuck this, I'm going in""
She quickly transformed into a magical girl to easily pass through that barrier.
""Oi, anyone in here?"", she called out pointing her gun in front of her.

Location: Muni XIII

With a loud huff, Annie set her supplies out on the great wooden table before her and opened an old and dusty book to a marked page. She had attempted this drawing of the Earth card several times already and each one had seemed to get worse. She looked back over the drawings and imagined herself drawing the same border patterns and runic text in volumes like a twisted punishment forever and then pushed the thought aside before it could overwhelm her. Earth was grounding and solid and strong. And <span class=""bb-i"">Patient</span>, she thought and wrinkled her nose at the idea. Annie was not. Not when it came to her own skills. She wanted to move quickly and get on to one of the more fun elements like water or air. Those were about movement and action. 

But her grandmother had insisted that there was an order to learning just as there was an order to the seasons. ""How could she flow like water if she could not stand on the ground that held it? How could she fly with air if she had no where to land? How could she learn to be strong if she had not learned to grow?"" Her grandmother had annoyed her with her endless, answerless questions. And Mary Beth just smirked, even less helpful than her mentor. 

Ink met paper and Annie began again, twisting runes into stone and dirt into magic. The image of a mountain worked its way across the paper but would not be contained by her lines and shortly she had gone off the page again. It didn't make sense! She looked at the book and then back at her own. The mountain was definitely larger than the card, yet somehow it was contained in the master image but came unbound in front of her. She would never master it, she concede and pushed the paper away. 

She heard the front door of the apartment open and Mary Beth answered someone in the front hallway but Annie couldn't tell which of her teammates it was. They weren't really a <span class=""bb-i"">functioning</span> team yet, which was another frustration to add to the list. Moving to Rome had seemed to come with a lot of them. She flipped through the old, magic book as she waited for whoever had stopped by to find her.</div>"

Seren tapped the door lightly, and waited patiently for it to open. Soon enough, someone opened the door.

""Ah, hello Miss Mary Beth,"" she said, looking at the older woman . . . girl. Magical Girl. Sigh, pronouns were so confusing when it came to things like this!

Anyway, the girl was a veteran, definitely, and from what little she'd heard from Annie, it seemed like being a Magical Girl ran in her family, because Mary was trained by her grandmother. Seren was a bit envious; Annie had was in a very good position, as far as she could tell.

She exchanged greetings with Mary and entered the apartment. 

""Hello? Annie, are you busy?""</div>"

Marie was busy making some sandwiches in her group's little slice of paradise. To use the term ""sandwich,"" though, was an understatement. These were works of art on their own, each ingredient a standalone masterpiece. One single bite would cause a normal human's tastebuds to enter a state of euphoria that could not be reached any other way. Such was the power of these ""sandwiches.""

When she had completed making them, she set them delicately on a platter, arranged symmetrically in a dignified fashion. This would be their snack to give them the strength they needed.

""My friends, I have made us some sandwiches. Bon appetit!""

She called out across the warehouse, hoping that she could bring her group together.</div>"

It's a good thing that we get more than enough exercise, or else I would have to be concerned about you putting on weight, with all that sugar you eat and drink.""

While Maria walked off to fetch them what they had ordered, Adalina pulled out her cellphone, went to the calender option and made a few notes here and there.

""Anyway, as I was telling Cath just before you joined us, my father won't be home for at least a week, so unless you guys have other plans, who's up for a slumber party? Ahh, what am I saying, of course you have no plans! As if any of us could make such things since we got enlisted anyway....""

 A few minutes later Maria returned with the two cups of coffee and Adalina's chocolate colossus piece, which she gleefully started to devour, savoring every bite, as the chocolate bits melted slowly on her tongue, while the fluffy cream dissolved in mere seconds, leaving feelings of longing for the next behind.

""Mhmmmmm.....I'm in heaven.....""

She glanced at the latte macchiato shaped clock and frowned slightly, since Hua Tsing was the last one to arrive again. Not that they had settled on a specific time, at which they would all come together,  however they somehow always managed to appear at approximately the same time, as if they were governed by magic. A fact that was undoubtedly helpful, if they had to fight some Error again, however Adalina didn't like it.

""So, while we're waiting for Huahaha, who will gladly pay for our orders I imagine, let's talk about serious business. Do you think Mr. Accorsi will ever man up and finally confess to Ms. Lorenzi? It's really getting hard to watch the getting fuzzy all the time, when they are near each other.""</div>"

The girl from <span class=""bb-s"">Twaiwan</span> China contemplated why they were arriving here at the same time. In the end it wasn't to far fetched, in the end they all enjoyed this little cafe. All of them arriving at once was a push, but at the same time school was over, so it seemed that they had compatible tastes. It seemed that their little group had good compatibility, and Hua was enjoying her time with them while she was in Rome. Still, this was a bit disconcerting. Shoving that aside, she walked in and promptly took a seat after greeting everyone there and apologizing for her interruption. It looked like everyone was present and accounted for, and they were just ordering coffee and snacks. As a regular here, Maria would probably know what she wanted and bring it to her in a few minutes. A situation involving an Error could potentially happen at any moment, so they had to be prepared. Having arrived just in time to hear the last few words of Corvi, she decided to interject her own opinion.

""I think it's cute when a boy is like that, as long as the attraction is mutual. Aha, it's just like the characters from one of my favorite Chinese cartoons~""

With her teas arrival, she took a sip and continued with her response.

""But there has to be a point when he does get on with it. Things have gotten mundane and slightly awkward if their relationship has been like this so long. Just do something, I don't care what, you know?""</div>"

Not very polite... but cute, I suppose.""</span> Tsukimon answered Makoto, a certain level of chiding haughtiness carrying on her voice. The older girl more or less appeared from out of Makoto's peripherals, her presence sudden. 

The entrance of the warehouse still needed work, being both incredibly dull and somewhat dusty. Tsukimon's own part of the structure was somewhere near the back from the entrance, isolated by walls akin to an office cubicles, if higher in order to ensure more privacy. More of these wall 'units' were stacked up in several groups to the side of Tsukimon's makeshift room in order to put up as the group see fit. The bathroom was perhaps one of the only places with proper walls surrounding it to box it off from the rest of the warehouse, and understandably so.

<span class=""bb-i"">""You heard correctly, none the less. No need for <span class=""bb-b"">this</span>.""</span> She eye'd Makoto up and down, clearly referring to her weapon. <span class=""bb-i"">""Do not just stand there, come an sit. We can talk more once we have some tea. Marie also made some food. We have a guest!""</span> She called out to the rest of the warehouse. 

Tsukimon wandered off to the kitchen area of the base, simple in appearance much like the ad hoc walls. The dining area appeared to be four office/school tables put together. Makoto appeared ready for a fight while Tsukimon looked anything but, turning her back to a complete stranger and unarmed. Raised in a rather strict traditional gang family, her idea casual clothing was what most would consider formal. Were it not for the open blue dragon-patterned bomber jacket over her black yukata, then she'd appear anything but casual. 

The swordswoman paused, staring at the sandwiches which Marie had laid out in silent admiration and contemplation, then to Marie. <span class=""bb-i"">""Thank you for the food, Marie. I am sure it will be outstanding, as always.""</span> She said in the best disinterested tone she could muster. A lot harder than it sounded - Marie's cooking was nothing short of divine, and keeping ones composure when trying it for the first time was...difficult. Tsukimon had managed it for the most part, other than the little sparkle that appears in her eyes every time she spots Marie's cooking. 

She began to dig through a cabinet, seeking some tea leaves.</div>"

""Manliness and a chance of getting slapped and charged for sexual harassment."" Catherine said. ""HuaHua, if you want to sue her for stealing your first kiss I'll gladly be your witness."" she told her without even knowing if that was actually even her first kiss. 

Setting down her headphones onto the table, she let out a sigh.

We're magical girls, we're supposed to protect people from the Errors. We don't have time for mathematics or science."" Her tone may have come off as a little sterner than she had meant it to, but she just couldn't see the point of them trying to live normal lives when... well, they weren't normal anymore.

""I spent my day working more on using my staff for combat,"" Sam continued. ""I also tried again to see if I could do magic yet, like you guys could."" For the first time in this conversation, Sam's normally flat expression was replaced with a slight grimace. ""But no luck."" She sighed again and turned another page. It irritated her to no end that she was a Greenhorn, while her two other teammates were a Magical Girl and a Veteran, that they had powers and could use magic - <span class=""bb-i"">real</span> magic - and she was stuck to only using her staff to <span class=""bb-i"">whack</span> the enemy over the head now and then. She hoped this would change soon. She wanted to see what kind of powers she had. She hoped they were like Jessica's powers, which allowed her to manipulate plants. Elemental powers were really cool.

Of course, Jasmine's powers were cool too. Not just cool, but unique, how she had a different power based on a different item. Considering a magical girl's powers only got stronger as they advanced in level, Sam was curious to see how Jasmine's powers would develop. Still, Sam would liked to have had some kind of elemental power. Something strong, something powerful. And she hoped it would surface soon: as the days went on and she still couldn't use magic, she started to get more and more frustrated with herself.</div>"

Quietly Makoto sat down where she got told to sit and stared at all of the assembled girls with her usual frown on her face. Oftentimes she had tried to get rid of this frown because it made her delinquent personality obvious to the eye, but she never really managed to do so.

The Hunter card slipped into Annie's hand. It was familiar, there, and she could feel the power like a familiar blanket ready to be put on. The card's image was a woman with a bow and a wolf, side by side, poised to attack. The card glows and Annie's eyes do the same, then there is a rush of magic and light that transforms her, giving her the calm and look of The Hunter. There is a bow in her hand and she draws it back with an arrow. 

""Ready yourself,"" Annie calls, her voice more certain and precise than before. The bow levels and she aims at the pot. Then, she lets loose her bolt which will fly true to the target unless interrupted by Seren.</div>"

""Interesting choice there, Cali. Personally, I wouldn't have gone for the one who is most likely going to cause a fractured skull if she doesn't agree with the kiss. Which also would remind her of her Chinese cartoons, I bet. Oh and just think of all the boys who have a crush on you, they would be devastated to find out that you're swinging <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> way.""

Adalina, who was halfway through the cake by now already, took this moment to connect a dramatic pause with a delicious mouthful of coffee.

""Not everyone can be as energetic as you, but I see your point. However, it's not like Ms. Lorenzi is doing anything to help getting the situation going either....adults are so stupid sometimes. Well, with a bit of luck we're all going to be part of the 90% death quota in our last year of service and never have to become like that hahaha!

Jessica was about to respond to Jasmine when she heard Sam's comments on the subject of school. She sat down the bag she had been carrying and walked over to where Sam was sitting and took a seat across from the girl. Looking at Sam, Jessica replied, ""There's more to life than fighting monsters and magic. Girls should go to school, even if they have magic and obligations to protect others. Its your obligation to yourself to have an education."" Jessica stood up, but before turning to walk over and retrieve the bag, said, ""After all, knowledge is power.""

If I stopped going to school, my mom would find out and give me hell. Sure I can understand not liking school; It's kind of like taxes, a necessary evil. Because if you don't go to school, then how are you supposed to support yourself? I'll admit I didn't check, but I don't think you can make money fighting Errors.""

Sam glanced up, if only for a second, when Jessica sat down opposite to her. She admired how calm Jessia was as she spoke. If Sam had spoken like she had to either of her parents, they would have gotten upset, but Jessica took it all in her stride. Never raising her voice, never showing shock, just calmly voicing her opinions.

The same could not be said of Sam's <span class=""bb-i"">other</span> teammate.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Are...are you saying that you don't still go to school? How are you getting away with it?""</span> Jasmine's cries of shock were almost amusing to Sam.

She turned her attention back to her book and turned another page. ""My parents don't even know I'm here, let alone that I'm not going to school anymore,"" Sam said. ""The minute I heard that Rome was brimming with magical girl and Error activity, as well as making contact with you guys veer ErrorNet and the necessary arrangements with Jessica as to where I would be living, I came straight here.""

""Yeah, it broke after one attack. I'm sure once you get good at it, though, you'll be able to withstand a lot more. Let's try multiple attacks this time. Can you make more than one shield?""

Annie drew back the bow again. This time she shot three arrows, one after the other, moving two and then three steps to the side for different angles. Again the shields broke, but stopped her attacks. The dead plant was still unharmed.

She shuffled he feet as she thought of what to say next. ""And another problem is I can't make them float or anything. I can just summon them somewhere in front of the target right before they get hit. If I don't get the timing right, the shields fall down and whatever's behind it gets hit.""

That was the main reason she had come. As it was, her shields were near useless in protecting anyone but her.</div>"

Annie puzzled for ideas before remembering something. ""So, my magic is drawn, literally, from this book. I still don't know where you get yours. Some of the other girls have a weapon or pendant. Do you have anything like that?"" 

Annie produced the old pages and bindings that contained the secrets to her magic and flipped to a page labelled ""The Guardian"". On it where several runes, some text and descriptions, and then the card itself, depicting an armored bear standing over a small child. It roared in defiance against a litter of arrows and wounds. 

""The Guardian is a protection spell, but also an Embodiment Card, like The Hunter,"" Annie explained. ""It is defined by courage, honor, and inner strength."" She looked up from the text and continued to smile. ""Sounds exactly like what we are looking for. Maybe there is something in this that will help you too.""</div>"

""Ahhhh?""

Confused and more than a little bit flustered, Hua decided to just take her seat and pretend that this happened. There was no need to acknowledge the kiss, as that'd just make this more awkward. -If she did acknowledge it, her friend may or may not have been going to the hospital for a very long time. Now partially recovered, she tried to break the awkward air by getting involved in the current conversation.

""U-h, I can pick it up. Just, don't be to extravagant, alright? Alright."" Hua took another sip from her tea, deciding to leave that in the air. Maybe cake would make them forget. Yes, everyone who was anyone enjoyed cake, so that would work. Putting her mind to more serious matters, Hua begin thinking about Rome. It was certainly a place different than her homeland of China, but it seemed to have nice people and nicer scenery. However, the Error activity was far more active in Rome than it had been in Taiwan.</div>"

Caligetta waved the waitress over and asked for a slice of chocolate cake. Nothing as elaborate as Adalina was eating though. She had to draw the line somewhere before her meal became far too frou-frou and stopped embodying everything she personally held dear, at least she claimed. Of course, it didn't help that things were already awkward and that she was not in the mood to push her luck at this point.
""Are we planning to get any work done at all overnight? We could definitely do some 'assignments,' but if you're looking for fun and relaxation I'd understand. It might be just as well. I can barely sit down with all the riding I've been doing lately,"" Caligetta asked conversationally.</div>"

Hey, you always have to see the positive side of things, right Cali? If you're sore now, that at least means you won't try to ride Hua later on and get the bedsheets all messy.""

Finishing the last pieces of her cake, Adalina turned her attention to the cup of coffee in front of her and took a big gulp of the warming liquid. It was true that there were more than enough Magical Girls out there, but if their mighty overlords called, they would have to follow. In order to administer justice, one had to make small sacrifices now and then, but she wondered if the faceless creatures behind the Error.net had to do the same, or if they could live their lives normally.

""Let's proceed with the planning for this evening. What kind of movie should we watch: Horror, love, drama or action?""</div>"

""Horror or action, naturally. What kind of sad sod watches romance films? It's just escapism!

Mumbling nonsensically to herself, a certain powerhouse of a magical girl sits ponderously atop a random, unimportant structure.

It was her hunting grounds, a sectioned-off region of her gang's turf where she could take all of the prey she wanted.

Cracking her knuckles and raising her head to the bright, sunlit city, Lindsey begins to bring herself to her feet.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Do not be too hasty. I can just tell when someone is too new to mean us harm. Who told you to come to us?""</span> Tsukimon asked, a somewhat dangerous edge to her question. 

She raised the sandwich up for another bite. It was likely the local moderator, trying to keep things neat and organized. The yakuza princess had an unspoken dislike of the Moderators and their seemingly arbitrary authority over the realm of magical girls, but it was of course a dislike she would keep to herself.

The debate was important, but so was keeping her strength, especially since it was Maria's cooking. That was sure to give her enough energy to get through the day! Silviana without energy would be horrible, it would be like Tsukimon being all friendly and touching others. That would be one backwards world. 

Silvia left her little corner of the room to grab a sandwich, but noticed two things that were . . . different. Very, very different. 

The first thing was the person within their building. Given what she had heard from their conversation, she was a greenhorn, so someone who was easily be molded into what they wanted. This was extremely promising, though it would take some time to shape the new girl into what they needed out of her, but it would be worth it.

Oh well, it would be rude if Silviana didn't introduce herself, and address the idea of her tagging along with Lia and her.

"" Did I overhear someone mentioning my name? Something about me helping out the new blood over here? Now, I might be needed to make sure neither of them end up dead, but Lia might want some alone time with the girl? I don't mind sitting back and relaxing at home if they don't want me to intrude on their alone time~! ""

Silvia was having a bit too much fun with this, but she was pretty bored beforehand, so could you really blame her? 

"" Oh, pardon me, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Silviana Amello, but you can call me Silvia if you prefer! I like sweet food and cute things! I hope we can become good friends, and maybe make this group a bit more organized! "" 

It was good to make new friends, and she would have to have some kind of decent relationship if she was going to be working with this girl. It was better to establish this relationship now and only have it grow while she gets trained.

However, this new girl wasn't the most shocking here.

No, that belonged to Tsukimon having her arm around Lia. That was just. . . wrong in so many ways. It would be like a depressed Silvia, it just doesn't work.</div>"

Seren jumped in reaction to the three arrows. Though surprised, her reaction time was enough to keep up with their flight, and if there was one thing she was proud of, it was how fast she could summon her shields.

""Errors,"" she told Seren in a voice that wasn't all her own. She was the Hunter now. And she was on the trail of her prey. ""Let's go,"" she said efficiently, stepping to the edge of the rooftop.

""Now now Catherine, I hope you don't really think I would do something as unjust as cheating in a game of luck by using magical powers, especially when it is only about the movie we're going to watch this evening.

She knew that Cath most likely had not meant anything with her statement, but even so, as the veteran member of the group and pillar of justice, she demanded at least some respect, especially when it came to things that weren't just at all. Reminding them now and then that they had to be able to trust each other blindly wouldn't hurt and since there was the very real possibility that they would lose one member at some point, it was better if they could spend the time together without any doubts.

""Well, since Horror, Action and Comedy are the ones we want the most, we should only select between these categories. So, does anyone have a dice or something else we could use to get a random result?""</div>"

Seren frowned a bit as the tone of Annie's voice changed. It was unnerving, to say the least. But right now, there were more pressing matters.

""Errors,"" repeated Seren, following after Annie. She immediately summoned two large tower shields that were wide and tall enough to cover her entire body. She held them readily at her sides, just in case. She stayed behind Annie, but she would rather she be in front, since her shields could protect her in case of a sudden attack, however, Annie was the one who could sense the Errors.

""Should we get the others for this, or we'll deal with it ourselves?"" she asked.</div>"

Jessica made a mental note that they didn't seem very picky. Maybe sandwiches would do?

Talking to the both of them as she made her way towards the small kitchen, Jessica asked, ""Would you be alright with a sandwich then? If so what do you want on them?"" Sandwiches were a simple fix anyway, and it was easy to make them to anyone's taste, but at the same time, you could never tell what someone wanted on them unless you knew them well or asked beforehand.</div>"

A sandwich huh? Jasmine was a little surprised at first that her apparently rich teammate was going to fix something so simple, but she didn't voice that surprise. ""A sandwich is fine. It also doesn't matter what kind; I'll eat anything put between to pieces of bread as long as it's edible."" Which was far more true then it should have been

Something interesting of note, was that while Jasmine was good at blending into most environments (both in part due to The Cufflinks and her acting ability) there was one major exception; a normal girl. Maybe it was because she hated this form, or because she was trying too hard, but she sometimes came off as awkward. ""So...um. Somethings that the girls at my school got me thinking about boys; either of you have a type?"" She asked. 'That...that's a normal thing for a girl to ask...right?' She hoped</div>"

However, when Jasmine mentioned boys, Sam looked at the other girl with a scrunched up expression, her nose wrinkled up as if she'd eaten something vile. ""I don't like boys,"" she muttered. ""All the boys at my old school were nasty and mean. They used to bully all the girls because they thought they could get away with it. I'm happy I don't have to deal with that anymore."" She then looked back at her page. ""So no, I don't have a type. I don't care about that kind of romance stuff anyway. Only stupid people would get boyfriends at our age.""

Magical Girls are those charged with fighting things that defy normal logic with skills and abilities that defy normal logic. They are fire versus fire; magic versus magic.

Their enemy of course, are Errors. Sometimes, events don't happen as they originally should've. This can be both a natural and artificial occurrence, and has an unwanted byproduct- the production of Errors. Monstrosities of varying size and power, Errors are living natural disasters. It is the job of magical girls to fight and contain such beings when they pop up, ensuring their destruction is not to wide spread. After their destruction Errors fade away, as they are merely leftover remnants. 

Of course, Magical Girls have to come from somewhere. They are created when a magical girl saves a young girl locked into an absolute fate of death- though how this unlocks their magical potential is unknown. Magical Girls are capable of detecting proper candidates, as well as Errors with their sensory abilities.


<span class=""bb-b"">Magic</span>
Magic is an important thing to any Magical Girl. It is the source of their abilities, and by default a Magical Girl has physical abilities, durability, and healing far beyond even the greatest athletes. They further have extra sensory abilities, capable of detecting other Magical Girls(Only if they are at close range or are transformed), Errors, and Magical Girl candidates. Special abilities are present in each magical girl, unique to her personality and creativity. Training and experience unlock new wells of power and help them control their abilities with precision.

Focal seeds are an important object for magical girls, though what exact form they take is dependent on the girl. Regardless, they must be kept on the girls person at all times. Without one, it is impossible to transform into a magical girl, meaning they are incapable of using magic. Without it Magical Girls are not completely defenseless- their physical abilities are still boosted far beyond that of a little girls, but that will mean little in the face of monsters like Errors.

The use of any sort of magic requires a transformation, though it is said that Expert level Magical Girls are capable of using magic without transformation.

Usually, girls work with a group of three to four others and defend a city. For large or heavily populated cities, multiple groups work independently of each other. Generally, each group has their own beliefs on if they should intervene with the affairs of normal people(For example, stopping criminals), what sort of morality they hold, how they interact with other magical girl groups, what magic is and where it comes from and so on.

In this roleplay, all characters will be in groups of 3-4, to be worked out by the RPers under the GM.


<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Experience Level</span></span>

Greenhorn(Prologue)
Exactly what it sounds like; a brand new magical girl. They lack use of a special ability, and only have partial control over their basic magical girl skills.

Magical Girl(First Act)
A magical girl who understands the basics and has control over their special ability. The First Act abilities of a magical girl are the basis from which every other ability stems.

Veteran(Second Act)
Veteran magical girls have the knowledge and expertise to add extra umph to their special abilities, allowing them to do do things beyond that of the average magical girl. This will be the highest you can go at the start of this RP. I'd prefer we only have a few veterans, at most one veteran a group outside of certain circumstances.

Expert(Finale)
The top class of a magical girl, those at this level are capable of using finale moves, special abilities that are trump cards. A rare bracket that takes a combination of talent, experience, and luck to reach.

A long time ago they went by a different name, but for modern magical girls its been forgotten. These are the Moderators and collective owners of the magical girl websites, and the closest thing to authorities in the magical girl world. Little is known about them, but its theorized there is one for each country, or at least large general area. They are known by their screen name, as they generally don't give out their real name trivially. -In other words, they hold authority as modeators on Errornet, and as psuedo administrators in the real world.

From what its known, Moderators ensure that Dark Magical Girls don't organize into large groups, and that Errors are kept in check. From there, how much they intervene in the area they administer depends on the Moderator. Italy's Moderator goes by the screen name of ""Not_A_Pasta_Eater"". They supposedly have a rivalry with the Moderator in the United Kingdom, and their familiar is a cat.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magical Energy</span>
The source of a magical girls powers. It goes without saying that using it all up is a bad idea. Fortunately enough, it does eventually come back over time. The reservoir of magical energy a magical girl has is used to power their special abilities, further, it allows them to transform into a magical girl in the first place. Time to recover magical energy generally depends on many factors, such as the magical girls mood, and the land they're currently at. The source of magic- further, even what magic is, is a question to some magical girls. Indeed, unfortunately becoming a magical girl didn't come with a manual.

<span class=""bb-b"">Basic Abilities of a Magical Girl</span>
Aside from their special magical powers, Magical Girls also all share basic enhancements. Magical girls are much stronger and faster than normal humans, and they instinctively know how to use the weapons they are given as a magical girl. They also tend to acquire a new level of talent in their closest hobby or desire - for example, an artist would be able to paint better, a soccer player would learn new skills and techniques much more easily, etc. Finally, while magical girls cannot recover something as drastic as a lost limb or a destruction of a major organ such as the heart magical girls are still able to recover from almost any and all minor injuries with enough time. While transformed, Magical Girls have immense stamina and can strain their body for long periods of time- though this can quickly be exhausted as magical energy runs low.

<span class=""bb-b"">Familiars</span>
The beings of magic who are instrumental in any higher level magical girl group are called Familiars(Sometimes called Magical Animals). They can take almost any form, as long as it's not humanoid. They come in two classifications, though most differences are purely in power.

The basic function of a familiar is to support a magical girl team in and out of combat. They also help magical girls as mentors, teaching them how to grow and evolve as magical girls. They cannot directly intervene in battles normally due to their relatively fragile bodies. However, their sensory abilities eclipse that of a magical girl by far, and they enable long distance communication. Further, they are capable of replenishing the magical energy of a Mahou shoujo in and out of combat. Depending on the familiar, they are capable of using special abilities that can turn the tide of a battle in the favor of magical girls. 

Each one has a unique personality all its own, though a fair bit of the time they're attuned to whoever requested them. To gain a familiar, a magical girl(or girls) must go to their Moderator and get one from them. Moderators summon the familiars then bind them to the magical girl(s).

The oldest familiars are called Great Elders, and are capable of surviving without the support of magical girls. Their powers and abilities dwarf the newer Familiars, but unfortunately Great Elders are no longer summonable. They simply live on, wandering the world looking for a proper master.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""World Information"" type=""button"">World Information [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Errors</span>
Errors are the natural enemies of magical girls- both hunt each other mercilessly. Their origin is unknown- however, regardless of this they can be extremly powerful. Low class Errors may be identical, but the stronger an error is the more unique in powers and skills they tend to be. They're monsters that take almost any form, from fairy tale creatures to even twisted versions of human animals. Some Errors even have appearances that take nothing from animals, and are completely unique in that sense. Weaker Errors are relatively easy to dispatch by destroying their body, but higher level, more unique Errors have Evil Cores. These are the source of their magic, and the best route to destroying a stronger Error is targeting this. 


<span class=""bb-b"">Dark Magical Girl</span>
No different than other magical girls. However, they are branded outlaws because they have killed normal humans for personal gain. That is the official ruling of moderators, but many magical girls have their own definition of what a ""Dark Magical Girl"" is, and some considering even small things like theft as damning.

<span class=""bb-b"">Errornet.com</span>
Though in the past magical girls were once isolated, this website allows magical girls to communicate with one another fairly freely. The Moderators are moderators here, and rarely large events relevant to the world of magical girls will be posted here. However, the site is more or less a place to talk for the most part. Several other sites do the same thing, though are much smaller- such as the imageboard reichan, for example. 

Normal people generally assume this is some weird cosplay LARP site. For that reason, Moderators tend to cleanse and regulate the site with extreme prejudice to ensure real life people who have interest in stalking cosplaying little girls don't become regulars.

<span class=""bb-b"">Valkyries</span>
A relatively obscure group of magical girls guarding the 15th providence of Rome(And a large area of countryside near it). They tend to keep to themselves, as that providence is the largest in Rome so they're constantly busy. They are semi active on Errornet.com, though they haven't yet met any other Roman magical girls. From what's said on the website, they're noted for being extremely efficient at shock attacks and mobility, which is fitting, considering the size of their territory. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Wandering Magical Girls</span>
As the name implies, these are magical girls who don't settle down in a single place and instead wander around fighting Errors as they find them. Fairly rare, considering magical girls tend to have lives and don't move around very much. There are a few in Rome, though due to their mobile nature it's fairly hard to meet them.</div></div>

Several Post-Apocalyptic wars have ravaged the city and the metros as much as the wilderness has. The people of the Koltsevaya Coalition have been forged in the fires of this hellish city. The Rangers of the Ring are the primary military forces and take up a third (2,500) of the total military strength. The Rangers are all volunteers and serve for a minimum of 5 years. They are trained by ex-spetsnaz and only earn their title of ""Ranger of the Ring"" by slaying a great mutant or other glorious actions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Old World Connection</span>: The Koltsevaya Coalition was assisted in its founding by a group of Ex-Spetsnaz and that group now operates on the surface for the coalition.

<span class=""bb-b"">Populations</span>: Military - 7,500, Civilian - 22,250, - Government - 250, Total - 30,000

<span class=""bb-b"">Government type</span>: Coalition - Group of Sovereign states whom support and defend each other

<span class=""bb-b"">Economic System</span>: Free Market
<span class=""bb-b"">Exports</span> - Vodka and raw minerals

<span class=""bb-b"">Pros</span>: 
<span class=""bb-b"">Easily Defensible</span> - The Koltsevaya Coalition is positioned in the Moscow metros. The surface of Moscow is a radiation covered, mutant crowded hell hole. Only people whom have extensive knowledge of the area can get through alive.

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Secrets</span> - The Russian military used secret metro tunnels in order to secretly transport materials and weapons and occasionally people stumble upon an old military cache.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cons</span>:
<span class=""bb-b"">Environmental Dangers</span> - Moscow is absolutely full of mutants and many of them want to be underground. Radiation is lethal in some places in the metro and in quite a few places in Moscow.

<span class=""bb-b"">Incomplete Sovereignty</span> - Bandits, Cannibals, Slavers, and Cultists are common in the unprotected parts of the metro.

Moscow surface - knocked out in a few minutes and dead within an hour without a gas mask

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory</span>: Moscow was given a little bit of advanced warning to the apocalypse. Some people were able to get into the metro before the world ended. One of these stations had a group of Spetsnaz take cover in it. These soldiers saw how quickly people were turning to barbarism to get what they wanted and because they were the most heavily armed they were able to hold order together. The civilians that followed them went on to found the first of the Koltsevaya stations. The soldiers formed a group called the Ashes of War and went about helping people form a civilization in the Metro. This group continued to act independently until its numbers were decimated during a conflict with communists. The survivors were brought into the Koltsevaya Line stations and with their help the Koltsevaya Coalition and the Rangers of the Ring or ""Рейнджерс кольца"" were formed. These groups now control a large portion of the Moscow metro and have several outposts on the surface, they are only recently venturing outside the city.</div></div>

<div class=""bb-h2"">Culture and Society</div>
They are a modernized German Empire, and are living in the wastes of the Rheinland. maɪnts, or Mainz, is their only remaining city. They are stout and battle hardened people, and all able persons must serve a 6-year term in the military. Being that they are entirely focused on taking back Berlin, few people have time for art and culture. What remains of their culture is mostly modern German elements, with quite a few callbacks to pre-WW1 German Empire. 
<div class=""bb-h2"">Location</div>
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/RaaGrdl.jpg""/>
<div class=""bb-h2"">Old World Connection</div>
Germany, most notably culture specific to the Rheinland in 1850-1950. They do have modernized weapons and tech, but are of course struggling to secure their weapons from rival Germanic tribes.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Population</div>
maɪnts: 75,000 within the city, 30,000 military.
Northern countryside: 8000, 2000 military.
Soulthern countryside: 7,000, 1,500 military.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Government</div>
Ruled an autocratic 'Emperor'; Kaiser Nikolaus Jäger. He allows a free market, but considers political opposition treasonous.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Language</div>
Most common language is Deutsch, but some English and French are spoken.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Economic System</div>
Free market, practically all people who are not in the military are gun, food, or simple clothing merchants.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Exports</div> Fine rifles, the fine gunmaking business has sprung as nearly the only art form within the Rheinland.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Imports</div> Wood, brick, and other building materials.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Food/Water sources</div> Lake Constance is their primary water source, and various countryside farms assure that they at least won't starve.
<div class=""bb-h2"">Strengths</div>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Defendable position</div> The city of Mainz has 30 ft deep trenches on all sides of it. Various tram systems can carry the farmers to the countryside if need be.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Wiling Populace</div> The population burns with rage at the Fourth Reich, a Neo-Nazi terrorist group that has taken over Berlin. They swear that they will conquer them, and even civilians proudly curse in their name. 
<div class=""bb-h2"">Weaknesses</div>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Resource Trapped</div> The citizens of Rheinland know their fate, that is to take over Berlin, or starve. Farms are already beginning to wield less and less produce, and metal supplies are dangerously low.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Insurgents</div> Fourth Reich insurgents believe it is their duty to conquer Mainz. They utilize suicide bombers, grenade launchers, bomber planes, and have even tried to utilize a stolen nuke. These attacks have crippled the Rheinland.

The plague that ravaged the rest of the world left the many vales and idle peoples of the mountains unspoiled. 

Their geographically isolation protected them once more when the bombs fell, the Mountains were again left almost untouched, partially due to their proximity to the Aksai Chin and the complete lack of any densely packed civilian population centers and/or strategic infrastructure.

When the Nuclear Winter came, even then the many hidden places of the mountains did not balk - they were no strangers to days of perpetual darkness. Many died, but many more endured than elsewhere.

When the soot cleared from the skies and the sun began to shine once more, a group designating itself as the Jade Palace emerged within the Kunlun Mountains and made successive contact with the many lamaseries and their survivors, and from there began to mount a sophisticated and organized recovery effort. The Jade Palace was an inexplicable military force out of nowhere, possessing old-world military arms and training. As men and women began pouring into the region, following promises of lost utopian cities and sacred vales, they found the Guardians of the Jade Palace and Tibetan Buddhist Monks offering them shelter and protection in exchange for menial labor. Over the last decade, small, ramshackle settlements have arisen around abandoned lodges and resorts around the outskirts of the mountain range, filled with peoples of every regional ethnicity and background. Each settlement was arranged to coordinate with a central Lamasery with the closest local proximity, where the forces of the Jade Palace mustered their forces and formed a coterie with the local monks. 

Thus the modern nation of Shangri-La was formed, with the Jade Palace acting as the nominal military authority, using the Buddhist monks to establish rapport and ideological control over the surrounding settlements. The settlements are peaceful havens, relatively impoverished but well protected and capable of a modest means of self-sustenance. The lamaseries of the inner-mountain range have been transformed into forts and military bases, making up in location what they lacked in stolid construction.

And somewhere, hidden in an undisclosed location within the range, lies the Jade Palace, which according to local rumor and superstition is where the next Yellow Emperor has arisen, ready to soon emerge and bring civilization to the disparate peoples of the world once again.</div></div><span class=""bb-b"">Populations:</span> There has not been an official census for some time. An educated guess would place their numbers between thirty and forty thousand, the majority being native Tibetans and Chinese Refugees from the Xinjiang Province with smaller minorities formed by those from India and Pakistan.

The Forces of the Jade Palace maintain a centralized region of control within the vales of the Kunlun mountain range, actively patrolling them with organized military squads armed with old-world weapons. These forces nominally scout for and protect the civilian settlements around and within the mountain range itself, although they have been known to occasionally 'requisition' goods and services from the settlements without prior notice. They also occasionally 'draft' young children without the consent of their parents.

A semblance of order is maintained by local lamasery monks, who have established rapport with the Jade Palace. The sight of orange robes is a common sight in the settlements, where the Buddhists act as the equivalent of a mayor, keeping track of and organizing all local affairs on an individual basis. They also dispense advice and relay information provided by the Jade Palace, including instructions on how to survive and what resources are or can be made available.

Each settlement functions as a disorganized communal borough. Everybody works, either growing crops, herding, or else producing various raw materials. Settlements are made around old-world resorts and lodges, which serve as community centers and as a public barracks. Around these, ramshackle huts and dwellings made of anything on hand, be it cars, sheet-metal, wood, or otherwise, are erected. Community assets and resources are stockpiled in the community centers, which have a token guard from the Jade Palace acting as peace-keepers.

Within the Kunlun mountain range, a number of Tibetan lamaseries exist where Tibetan order Buddhists make their homes. These lamaseries act as local garrisons and headquarters for the Jade Palace forces, which regularly muster and deploy their forces from these locations. A number of military directors and executives discuss the affairs of the region with the monks and determine how to proceed. The directors have ultimate authority, although it is said by some that they report to a central authority known as the Yellow Emperor.</div></div><span class=""bb-b"">Spoken language:</span> Several adopted from the numerous bordering regions.

Food is scarcer, limited largely to cereal growth in a few isolated vales or along the outskirts of the region and several individual goat herds. Most locals have ample access to fresh vegetables, clean water, and usually even milk and cheese. There is a severe shortage of fruits and meat, with soybean crops being widely distributed in an effort to make up for this.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Advantages"" type=""button"">Advantages [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">The Trials of Passage:</span> The lamaseries of the Kunlun Mountain range are well-secreted away, usually not being located even on old-world maps, and serve as tactically advantageous staging grounds amidst the peaks and vales, filled with snow and stone. The Jade Palace maintains light, mobile forces at these points which can quickly mobilize and reach any surrounding settlement in short order. Assailing these locations would be a challenge for any conventional military force due to the turbulent terrain and the lack of any kind of urban environment or modern roads.

<span class=""bb-b"">Simpler Anachronism:</span> Many of the settlements are relatively impoverished and primitive, but are entirely self-sustaining and contained. Most of the people are subsistence farmers, or else laborers. Life is hard, but not difficult.

<span class=""bb-b"">Wisdom of the Tertön:</span> The Jade Palace seems to have a sophisticated understanding of the relative distribution of resources throughout the Kunlun mountain range, and relays most of this information to the settlements through the lamasery monks. Each local settlement usually has access to some form or another of nearby regional resource that they would otherwise not be able to find.

<span class=""bb-b"">Guardians of Myth:</span> The forces of the Jade Palace are a fairly well-organized, well-equipped, and efficient military organization that seems to have its logistics reasonably well in hand, considering that they seem to have come out of nowhere in the aftermath of the Reaper plague and the Nuclear Apocalypse. In the eyes of the local populace, they are nearly mythical in stature and repute, soldiers of the next Great Ruler who will inspire a return to the grand civilizations of old.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Disadvantages"" type=""button"">Disadvantages [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Disparate:</span> The populations of the settlements are made up of people from all surrounding regions, all speaking different languages, not all of whom respect Buddhist teachings or living under the thumb of the Jade Palace.

<span class=""bb-b"">New World, Old Ways:</span> Lacking any extensive industrial infrastructure or modern conveniences, the various settlements and lamaseries usually don't even have electricity or functional plumbing, let alone the ability to manufacture complex equipment. If they want to make something new, they have to do it using techniques that have not been seen since the dark ages. The Jade Palace forces seem unusually well-equipped, but even they can't make more bullets out of nothing...

Ryderia
<span class=""bb-b"">Culture/Beliefs:</span>
The Ryders are a large group of nomads that inhabit a portion of the southwestern Great Plains, which has become known as Ryderia after the name of its inhabitants. The Ryders are completely nomadic in nature, not having even a single permanent settlement; they instead travel with their herds of horses and migrate across the length of their territory, preferring the northern regions in the summer and the south during the winter. There are also certain times of the year when numerous Ryder bands will gather together, and these occasions are a time for celebration among the Ryders. Their horses are the lifeblood of the Ryders, acting as both lifestock and beasts of burden. Every Ryder is taught from a young age how to ride, and as a rule of thumb the only Ryders who do not ride are those who are physically incapable of doing so. In addition while the Ryders may not be exceptionally hostile they are fiercely territorial and will respond violently to any attempts to settle what they view as their lands. And they have also been known to ride out on raids on smaller neighbouring settlements, though this is not particularly common. In fact, Ryders are more likely to trade with neighbours than kill them; their horses may provide them with transport, meat, leather, and milk but there is plenty that they cannot get themselves. And they are more than happy to trade anything excess they may have, or anything they salvage from the Dead Cities within their territory.
<span class=""bb-b"">Place on map:</span>
<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/EQkrE8k.gif""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Old World Connection:</span>
The Ryders have no actual connection to the Old World, but they did adopt what they thought of as some aspects of Native American culture. They refer to their warriors as Braves, use feathers in their hair to denote accomplishments, refer to their leaders as Chiefs, etc. But it should be noted that very few Ryders actually have any Native American ancestry.
<span class=""bb-b"">Populations:</span>
~32,000
<span class=""bb-b"">Government type:</span>
The Ryders live in nomadic bands of up to about 150 individuals, and each band is a direct democracy. Though they elect a Chief to deal with day-to-day ruling, all adults in the band will gather and vote on important issues. Justice is dispensed in a similar way; the one charging someone with a crime and the one being charged present their cases to all the adults of the tribe, who then decide on a verdict. However, when it comes to matters that involve numerous bands or even the entirety of Ryderia such a manner of decision-making is not feasible. So the Chiefs will gather when the bands meet and discuss the issue before making a decision.
<span class=""bb-b"">Spoken language:</span>
English
<span class=""bb-b"">Economic System:</span>
The Ryders do not have any form of money, and instead trade and barter among themselves and outsiders for what they require.
<span class=""bb-b"">Food/Water Sources:</span>
The main source of food for the Ryders are their horses; they consume their meat and milk for sustenance. However, they cannot survive alone on horse and often trade for fruits and vegetables. The horses themselves survive on the grasses of Ryderia, though the grasses are shorter and more stunted than they were during the time of the Old World. As for water, they collect water from the rains that come as well as from the rivers that criss-cross Ryderia. Though the rivers are the more dangerous prospect due to both radiation in the water and the mutant monsters that dwell within the murky waters.

(The Land of the Voices, Informally: “Vocia,” Demonym: “Vocian.”)

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Culture and Beliefs:</span></span> 
Terra della Voci is centered around “Religio della Voci,” after which it was named, which incorporates the voices heard by its founder Antal Lucretius as gods and spirits.  Though some suspect that these voices are nothing but hallucinations, the relative prosperity since Terra della Voci’s founding, and the strangeness of the world around them have made many open to the idea.  Accustomed to strife, the Vocians have banded together into communities, which often serve as a center for people’s lives.  Rome, while not targeted by any successful strikes, has been reduced to all but rubble, but serves as capital, and is the only settlement within Terra della Voci’s borders that could be considered a city.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Place on map:</span></span>
The Northern Apennines to Capua and Benvento.  Image forthcoming.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Old World Connection:</span></span> 
There is none, beyond the ruins that surround them.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Population:</span></span>
The population of Terra della Voci is about 50,000 strong.  One quarter of that officially resides in the rebuilt capital, and the rest spread out over the countryside.  One third of the population is on active military duty, guarding against insurgent groups.  Up to nother third can be called upon in the event of war.


<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span></span>
A Theocracy led by Antal Lucretius, who founded both the state religion and the state itself, which he rules as “Signore Profete,” or “Lord Prophet.”  Those ruled by Terra della Vocia are parts of three level of society, “Cittadini,” “Cittadini Non Credenti,” and “Non Credenti.”  Cittadini are restricted to those who follow Religio della Voci, and possess the full suite of rights protected by Vocian law.  Non Credenti are those who do not follow Religio della Voci, and must pay an additional tax and face extra civil penalties for violating religious law.  Cittadini Non Credenti (often simply called “Cittadenti”) are individuals, or decendants of individuals, who are not followers of Religio della Voci, but have served Terra della Voci exceptionally, through willingly serving in the military longer than is required by law, being approved for working on a merchant caravan, or saving the life of one of the Cittadini, but can be declared Non Credenti if found guilty of serious crimes (murder, high treason, etc.).  Cittadini Non Credenti are not required to pay the Non Credenti tax, and are charged for all crimes as Cittadini.

Beyond Rome, the settlements of Terra della Voci are small, no more than villages.  Each region, small and numbering about three dozen, is entrusted to a political and religious official (“Signore Governatore,” plural: “Signore Governatori”)  to manage.  Each of these officials reports directly to the Signore Profete.  Only Cittadini are permitted to become Signore Governatori.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Spoken language:</span></span>
The teaching of Italian to newborns in mandated by Vocian law, but the teaching of other languages by those with the means and time is encouraged.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Economic System:</span></span> 
Actual trade between communities, outside of the central hub of Rome, is in the hands of merchant caravans that peddle wares at prices that vary from open to strictly regulated.  Membership of these caravans, which also serve as the main line of communication between settlements, is strictly regulated by the state.

<span class=""bb-b"">Exports:</span>
Salt, metals.

<span class=""bb-b"">Imports:</span>
Timber, bricks, and other such construction materials.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Food/Water Sources:</span></span> 
The Apennines were largely untouched nuclear and biological warfare, and rivers from there are as clean as any in the world.  While Terra della Voci cannot subsist on farmed foods alone, their proximity to the sea and rivers allows them to supplement their diets with fish, creating a net food surplus.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Strengths:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">The Fruit of the Sea</span>
The rivers of and waters off Terra della Voci are bursting with life, providing enough food, if strict controls are put in place, and in conjunction with stored farm goods, to feed its people for years should farming become unfeasible.  Furthermore, simple contraptions devised by the Vocian people allow them to bring much water out of the Mediterranean Sea, which can be set out to dry to leave behind salt, which can be used to preserve meat.

<span class=""bb-b"">The Fruit of the Earth</span>
The north-most edge of Vocian territory lies on the northern Apennine Mountain Range, in which a number of settlers have begun mining.  The State has taken a vested interest in these mines, and regulates the flow of ore from these mines.  All coal is guarded jealously for its potential as fuel, and a limited amount of metals are traded with other lands.


<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Religious Instability</span>
While many Non Credenti are content to live their lives under the order and relative prosperity provided by the Terra della Voci, there are some who view the new State with disdain.  These groups, primarily Christian, believe that the policies toward the Non Credenti as abhorrent discrimination (whether this is from Old World sensibilities, or religious fervor varies from person to person), and—while small—are capable of doing serious damage.  There is also the prominent “Nova Roma” group, which is obsessed with the Roman Empire of old, and seeks to recreate it—starting with Rome itself.
<span class=""bb-b"">Total Ruin</span>
While Italy’s status as a minor player on the world stage made Rome a low-priority target for Nuclear and Biological weapons, the simpler-to-manufacture bombs, as well as end-of-civilization rioting conspired to level the city and the surrounding area.  Few structures remain from the Old World, those that do being in total ruin, and little of the areas technology remains.  The Vocians have had to build what they have from the knowledge and expertise of the people that remain, and it has put them behind in terms of fortifications, weaponry, and medicine.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Mutants and Major Hazards (WIP):</span></span>
Information Forthcoming.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">History:</span></span>
Like much of the rest of the world, chaos followed the end of the Old World in what once was Italy, and lasted all throughout the Nuclear Winter. Some sizable length of time after the Winter’s end, a man came, seemingly from nowhere, speaking of a new path.  He called himself Atal Lucretius, and said that gods and spirits spoke to him.  He proved a charismatic figure, and soon amassed enough support to enforce his rule.  With the government established, people converted for convenience’s sake, and out of fear.  While that fear was misplaced, the prosperity brought by order was something they had not tasted since the death of the Old World.  So the Religio della Voci spread, and the Terra della Voci with it.</div>"

Culture/Beliefs:The only thing that powers The New Union is money and getting further in the world. They are probably one of the biggest trader nations in the United States with caravans going to both coasts and as far as Toronto in Canada. But their religion is based around their president Joseph L Knight who they believe to be Abraham Lincoln reborn and worship him with a religious fervor akin to fanatics. They seek to bring back the union of the United States and bring it back to their religious glory. Their worshiping idol is not a crucifix or a statue but the American flag, and citizens of the union consider ""Shopping and Bartering"" A form of worship and their bible is a American history text book.But There is still church every Friday and everybody within the nation observes this those who can't make it to a church still worship from a distance.

Old World Connection:Started by the survivors of Kentucy sometime ago, a tank crew from Fort Knox passed on their knowledge of the M1A1 Abrams and each crew passes on their knowledge there is only one crew at a time which means one tank at a time. So thus they have one M1A1 Abrams tank at their disposal, a small group of Rough Riders use motorcycles as transport. They also worship old world stuff and tech simple things like a bobblehead are a sign of great wealth and power.

Populations:45,000
2250 active soldiers (500 of those are the elite Rough Rider Calvary that protect caravans.)
10,000 active duty traders and caravaneers, and guards.
150 In goverment (One of those is the president who is worshiped as being a great president reborn into this life to lead them through their troubles he has complete control the other 149 are senators who act more like priests worshiping the president more fervently than the others and they spread his word, they also lead mass, and act as ambassadors to other groups.) 

Government type: Loosely based in Democracy where senators vote for things. But they usually do whatever the president says so they are a society that is driven around the president himself who is often considered one of the ""Great Leaders"" reborn the president is in for life until he dies, and when he dies it's the job of the Senate and the rough riders to go around finding their next president. Sometimes it's little more than a child or infant, sometimes its a fool who can be used as a puppet but mostly it's someone whose rich and influential enough to be considered relevant.   

Spoken language:English 

Economic System:Their economy is based around gold,scrap,the leather and meat from their grub worms, and weapons taken from the Fort Knox area of Kentucky there they produce all manner of things from their scrap or they just sell it. The Union brags about their gunsmiths and their leatherworkers to the point of extremes and values money over everything. Their currency within the nation are paper bills signed that have been printed with the faces of the four presidents. They come in different colors and values with Joseph's bill being worth a 100 bucks, there used to be a bill higher than that from the president before Joseph for ""A hundred billion jillion dollars."" From their youngest president who was 7 years old, later that year the seven year old president was assassinated and his laws and money taken off record. Outside the nation they use Fort Knox Bullion's as currency and use them kind of like currency for other parts of the wastes. Some great leaders of other nations will get these as a gift of respect from The New Union and they can be traded back to them for favors or to buy other goods. Those who have a Bullion are considered great partners to them or have a lot to offer. 
Exports:Gold,scrap,""Grub"" stuff (Meat,leather,Fertilizer), weapons, And Kentucky Hooch (A popular liqueur that is savored by men of wealth all over the states)  

Imports:Water,oil,food,tools for production, metals (Steel, iron), ore (Coals and the like), fodder (For both worms and horses), and stupid consumer things that no longer have a use (Old cellphones, tvs, microwaves, and the like.)    

Food/Water Sources:They live mostly off of what they can hunt,scavenge, and farm. Mostly they live off their domesticated worms for meat,hide, beasts of burden, and Fertilizer to live. 
Pros:<span class=""bb-b"">Strong Military:</span>The New Union of States has one of the best equipped fighting force that they have ever seen (Which isn't saying much seeing as America is a desolate place now.) and their elite Rough Rider calvary are considered incredibly good shots. Plus they have a tank which might help them in the long run with the occasional conquest but if it's destroyed so is a massive tradition and object of a entire holiday is gone which can demoralize them. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Strong Trade Economy:</span>The New Union of States has a powerful economy due to their all around beast of burden the grub, it's their pack beast, it's Calvary, it's food (albit chewy and a bit tasteless but it has more protein than cow meat!), it's leather hide is tough and can be turned into armor or clothing, and it's poop is considered some of the best fertilizer around. But they trade other things as well not just the products their grub makes and them seeking old world tech and a variety of other things makes trading with them worth it and both groups often walk away happy. Their caravans are also some of the furthest reaching hitting both coasts and going as far as the middle of Canada. 
Cons:<span class=""bb-b"">Poor Leadership:</span>The Unions leadership revolves around one man who is worshiped like a god, these men have complete and utter power over their people and they will follow them blindly. So a assassination or even just driving the leader insane can cause a lot of turmoil within the nation and the people blindly following a insane leader can lead them further into their doom then assassination
<span class=""bb-b"">Old World Greed:</span>The spirit of the old world is still very much alive within The Union who greedily seek out old world artifacts and horde them, a sign of wealth within their nation is having a lot of prewar junk from bobble heads, to microwaves they seek it out and have a desire to return to the life of the old world.
<span class=""bb-b"">Science is for nerds:</span>Under Joseph L Knight the people of the Union have shunned science and medicine citing that people who do them are squares and nerds. So thus science and research have taken a hit with things like electricity and such being a long shot. There are only a few doctors within the nation and they are few and far between so things like the flu and the cold kill a lot of people every year.

They are incredibly docile and normally travel within groups called coils mainly due to the fact that when they sleep they sleep in a giant knot of them with their eggs in a small pocket underneath them. They are incredibly docile unless provoked and when provoked they attack with their massive bulk. they can grow to be anywhere from 23-110 feet in length with the bigger ones being used as kind of mobile weapon platforms by the rough riders as well as transport for troops. It's not uncommon to see the bigger worms outfitted with machine guns torn from the tops of the Abrams stock piles in Fort Knox. Other than that they have a variety of uses including a incredibly chewy and almost tasteless meat which is canned and traded with others, as well as their leather hides being incredibly tough.

This mutation is highly aggressive and intelligent with it having a great sense of smell and even a odd version of sight despite lacking eyes, it has been shown to be able to use tools like knives and hammers to draw blood or disable prey so that it can stick it's spear like tongue into a artery and drain their blood from which they get their nourishment. Oddly enough this creature is capable of surviving off of normal food as well but it craves blood like it's a drug and offers from ""Withdrawals"" which included heightened aggression, surges of adrenaline when confronted with living prey, and even secretion of a pheromone that draws animals and humans to it like moths to a flame this pheromone is much akin to a animal in heat. Other than these the Blood Drinker has shown the ability to blend into it's surroundings much like a chameleon but instead of it being based on emotions it's based entirely on environment and can be used at will. So this beasts mutations are drastic and dangerous.

They are highly intelligent pack beasts that are akin to piranhas when they feed leaving nothing in their wake but bones. They are scared of loud noises though so it's not uncommon to see someone sitting above the water of a river or lake and hitting a bell or gong to scare these things off. Their meat is good and considered a delicacy but only a few are foolish enough to try and go fishing for them seeing as they grow big enough to wrap around a dingy and capsize it.

They travel in large groups called hives their movements capable of being felt through the grounds miles away they are the only threat the military truly mobilizes for often bringing their one tank loaded with SABOT and HE rounds to deal with these things. Lately due to efforts to destroy hives their numbers have been thinning but it's unknown if they've left the confines of Kentucky or not.

They are led by a woman who only goes as ""Lady Red"" and has been notoriously hard to track and kill some say she is immortal seeing as there has been times where shes been visibly hit by rounds but yet she comes back. They are also one of the more friendly raider groups often trying to find allies that hate the Union as much as they do and if given the supplies and the numbers would attempt to take them down, they even have a code of sorts which includes no rape, and no stealing from those who have basically nothing they even give food to those who are poor leading some to not classify them as bandits. They make base within a town known as Berea but they basically range all over Eastern Kentucky and parts of western Virginia.
The Devilborn: While the Lords of Ruin have a code of ethics there isn't anything that hold back the Devilborn which is basically a satanic cult that sees the apocalypse as a sign of the emergence of hell. They produce and give out drugs to people who get addicted, they then use these people as cannon fodder having them charge headlong into machine gun fire with some wielding nothing more than a pipe or a sharpened piece of scrap metal. Make no mistake these junkies are often high when they do this so they tend to shrug off pain and keep going often leading to a morale plummet when being fought. Then the cult it's self isn't very well armed either but at least they have guns and they make up for their lack of training with sheer numbers, with the lowest rank being ""Accepted"" Which are little more than cultists armed with peashooter rifles and pistols and a series of either scars they've earned or self inflicted wounds, then there are the acolytes which are armed with Kalashnikovs and other assortments of assault weapons they even sometimes get bullet proof vests or padded clothing, then come the ""Chosen"" who are officers and they normally wield weapons that were taken as trophies some even carry grenade launchers and missile launchers, and some of the higher ranked chosen wear a mishmash of plate armor that is built either out of junk or actual steel, the other ranks are the four horsemen who are just a step below their true leader a mysterious man known as the Deacon who is considered the son of the devil, oddly the Devilborn cultists have shown to be able to walk among Blood Drinker mutations and even use them to their benefit. They are highly aggressive and make their home in Hopkinsville, but they are basically everywhere in the south ranging from Southern Kentucky to Georgia, they even own a vast majority of Tennessee.
Radiation:Seeing as Kentucky is hardly a strategic asset they were spared a majority of the nuclear hellfire that burned the United states, the only target of their destruction was the City of Louisville which has a lot of residual fallout from the missiles and has become completely uninhabitable it is referred to as the ""City of Ghosts."" And is a source of a lot of superstition.     
        
Backstory: The Union has been around for about 40 years, it started out of Fort Knox under the leadership of a Senator who later suffered from a bout of dementia and claimed to be FDR reborn, under his leadership they expanded into owning a small but incredibly populated chunk of Kentucky, eventually their new president started the cult of the presidency and old-world which flourished into their main religion. Nobody questioned the fact their leader was going insane to them his nation was a bright spot in the wasteland and they clung to it.

Over the years it flourished establishing a great military and trade economy due to their taming of the grub worms, and even the taming of some horses for breeding. Eventually some of the richer senators established caravans using the grubs to carry cargo all over the United States and Canada, and when those caravans came under attack frequently the Rough Riders were formed a elite fighting force that does just about everything from intelligence, to deep raids in the name of the Union.

In the past five years to the present the union has continued to flourish it's trade routes and under the leadership of Joseph L Knight has become a bit stronger in their military and denouncing science and development.</div></div>

They're extremely loyal to each other &amp; their heroic leaders/founders who's vision, dedication &amp; hard work, has managed to begin (as far as they know) rebuilding any form of civilization. They are united, they work &amp; fight together against anything that comes their way in hopes that one day they will help build a lasting refuge for humanity in this new hostile world. However they know 'Rome' cant be built in a day, &amp; they know many hardships await them yet some more immediate than others but they stand ever ready to face anything!. 

They're of mixed ethnicity's &amp; religions, all forms of religion are allowed but under no circumstances are members of any religion allowed to clash verbally or physically with the views of anothers religion &amp; believes. The republic is also strongly against any form of racial intolerance &amp; extremism which is in extreme cases punishable by banishment &amp; threat of execution.

(Note: although the fortress stands strong with walls &amp; fencing that has been extensively setup from shoreline to shoreline in each direction north &amp; south of the fort, groups of wildlife are still finding their way through occasionally harassing the local Inuit populous and their livestock but the quick response &amp; regular patrols of the military stationed in the area have still dramatically helped keep these situations in control for the time being at least.)</span>

Firmly United - Their unity &amp; dedication to their people &amp; the republic borders on the fanatical, they're rebuilding civilization for all of humanity &amp; that gives everyone hope, goals and a future to look forward to. However all should know they're prepared to fight tooth &amp; nail to keep it safe willing to resort to extreme measures if their hand is forced. Their unity is further shown by the hard work of the common people the farmers, laborers &amp; craft workers &amp; their limitless dedication to aiding the construction &amp; improvement of everyone's livelihood.

Everyone Matters! - While all drive &amp; direction of their makeshift government is run &amp; decided upon by a select few &amp; ultimately their heroic leaders. All of the peoples wants, needs, feedback &amp; opinions are all voiced through representatives fairly elected from every group that has become part of the republic which helps put many fears &amp; civil unrest at ease.

Military hardware &amp; Electricity - Thanks to the Hydro electric dam &amp; some engineering ingenuity, with a dash of trial &amp; error all settlements of the NORA republic are powered allowing many home comforts (most notably heating) to the populous, But also helps power the center &amp; founding point of the republic which their leader &amp; the few remaining of his group began building from a safely secured military base with bunkers creating their current capital ""New Hope"".

Quality Education - Thanks to the collective &amp; dedicated efforts in establishing places of learning throughout the republic, The entire populous benefits sharing &amp; maintaining many skills &amp; relearning long-lost ones as-well. Thanks to apprenticeships as-well many skilled laborers are getting into their respective workplaces with little to no on-site training ensuring productivity in the long run. Skilled doctors, researchers &amp; engineers are also being trained up from young ages only furthering the longevity of the republic &amp; the continued survival of its people.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Cons:</span></span>
Limited crop growth - Due to the climate they have a short 100 day growth season for all standard crops not resistant to the cold weather, they have a decent balance of foodstuffs to supply everyone in the republic as it is, but the more remote locations (especially to further north) suffer from regular shortages despite the encouragement of each household growing a little of their own in gardens were possible which makes small localized farmers markets a big fanfare for the locals. However this is a problem in the long-term as population growth, progression &amp; expansion of the republic will further strain the current foodstuff stocks, what limited amounts of crops that get stored as surplus is little and ultimately used by the military in short order or distributed as relief aid to settlements that suffer poor harvests.

Spaced Settlements - The various settlements spread out over the Republics territory are of different distances from the capital some more distant &amp; remote than others but every location is set up near a required resource thus each settlement &amp; outpost is dependent on the others for the republic to continue functioning on a daily basis each settlement tends to have basic defenses including substantial local &amp; militia forces to hold out against bandits, monsters &amp; raiders long enough for a substantial military force to respond &amp; secure the area. Per-longed sieges to any of the settlements ultimately effects the republic on a whole as nothing is currently in abundance or stockpiled, then combine the crop issues &amp; foodstuff distribution and supply issues on top of everything. Hence why the Military of the NORA republic is fast to mobilize &amp; respond to any necessary situations the working rail systems &amp; partially repaired roads throughout the republics territory help in this matter.

Medicinal Shortages - Much of the Medicine reserves &amp; stockpiles have severely diminished in the few short years of the republics establishment, Medicine is tightly guarded &amp; regulated and reserved for those most in need &amp; the military. The supply's becoming more &amp; more pressed and with the many goals &amp; projects the republic is working on they haven't yet managed to get a proper production line in the works for making medicines or securing any more. As it currently stands outside trade is the only very limited income of medical goods for the republic and quickly becoming one of the more pressing matters if it wasn't already.

Mutants/Outlaw hatred &amp; distrust - There are many tribes of mutated humans to the south most not to friendly &amp; others outright cannibalistic mix in extremist Cults, warlords, &amp; roaming outlaws occupying much of what was north America. The Many groups that journeyed north during the initial exodus had many issues with these groups along the way... So hatred, fear, &amp; distrust of them from the people of the republic is extreme &amp; intense to the point where if they enter the republics territory uninvited &amp; unescorted they are to be killed on sight!, As expected the feeling is mutual, many desperate warlords &amp; outlaw groups have tried attacking the republic for supply's &amp; loot only to be beaten away time &amp; time again if not utterly wiped out. Only one instance did a mutant clan try attacking the republic &amp; were made example of not one of their warriors returned alive &amp; their body's impaled on makeshift stakes as a warning in an area known as the southern wastes (A dead zone that is a desert-like-waste where nothing grows with pockets of radiation scattered throughout the area) Yet another prime example of the animosity these groups have for the NORA republic.

Hidden old world relics of chaos &amp; lore - Several years ago in their efforts to bring the secured underground Facilities of NORA back into full operation Natasha Liethens crew made a substantial discovery not long after getting old-world military vehicles operational again, they found command consoles linked to a dozen on &amp; off site ""silos"" housing unfired tactical 'third-strike' missiles however Natasha &amp; her tech-savvy engineers have yet been unable to find or bypass the heavily-encrypted security systems in place. Despite the stories that had been passed down from their ancestors both Ron Sterling &amp; Natasha Liethens have a keen interest in gaining access to the weapons but to what end is unknown as they've kept this information to themselves &amp; a select group of engineers working on it, fearing it may cause panic (such as repeating history) with the rest of the population if the information became public knowledge.</div></div>

Northern Wildlife: Wolf packs - starved &amp; desperate feral animals simply trying to survive by hunting anything &amp; everything edible living or dead.

Mutated Wolf packs - For some unknown reason they do not get along with their 'healthy' counterparts and often consume them as a food source however normal wolfs will not fight or eat them in return instead fleeing at their presence like all prey. These wolfs are larger move in smaller groups rather than packs, harder to kill, stronger, faster, &amp; all out lethal &amp; extremely poisonous to both humans &amp; other animals when wounded by them. Exhibit unusual &amp; strange/unpredictable behavior. to be avoided at all costs, extremely hazardous!.

Mutated/poisoned Wildlife - (eg. caribou) Some of the wild unherded animals that the people of the republic use for their meat sources are extremely hazardous &amp; not for consumption due to contamination/poisons as such all hunted wildlife is thoroughly &amp; exhaustively tested. As such safely herded &amp; bred animals are the preferred meat source in the republic. It is noted that the hazardous wildlife seems (According to amounts of wild meat that's been disposed of due to contaminants) to be mostly concentrated to the eastern areas of the republic. Investigation into the cause of the matter is in the works but suspected to be result of radiation or diseased/poisoned food or water sources some of the animals sustain themselves from.

Hostile Mutant Tribes to the south - the mutual resentment, clashes, treatment of the mutant people is no small matter some tribes are more peaceful than others but to the republic they all the same &amp; dangerous. Relations between the two are further exacerbated by the continued refusals for the republics 'Warning' (impaled mutant corpses) to be taken down &amp; buried, Any mutant that forcibly tried do to so has only added to the collection if caught.

Hostile Outlaws, Warlords, gangs &amp; cults - All though minimal some trade is conducted with the more peaceful or agreeable warlords to the southeast in return they don't bother Nora's boarders, But there are many others that don't and often trespass on the republics territory, bandits try raiding remote towns albeit unsuccessfully but doesn't dissuade them from trying time to time. These groups are a constant annoyance but one easily dealt with for the time being.

The southern wastes - a dead zone with scattered pockets of radiation spans a large area through-out the south Yukon &amp; British Columbia, there's nothing out here but the dead and is avoided by all except the occasional group of travelers from the mutant tribes or bandit gangs that traverse the surrounding areas heading elsewhere.

Diseases - Sickness &amp; disease are constant for any survivors, the republic has medicinal stock &amp; protected so most citizens only get the flu every so often, however with so many groups &amp; mutants roaming the southern boarders of the NORA republic who are unsanitary &amp; already have extreme issues with many diseases the fear of spread is a huge concern which is why the republic established &amp; enforced controlled external trade rules limiting all southern trade to one small town which acts as the Secure gateway to the rest of the republic in terms of authorized travel &amp; trade goods with the various groups to their immediate south.</div></div>

Early on these small groups tried working together living day to day beset by dangers constantly, limited resources, starvation &amp; unclean water, it was one thing after another with no future in sight eventually after many deaths some of the groups managed to scrape out what little of a living they could even working together with other groups despite the constant clashes &amp; desperation. this went on for a few years eventually what little resources that could be collected dried up and the groups turned on each other while disease continued to run rampant, what ended the chaos was when the crops just died out the land dried up becoming totally unusable every scrap of food was getting used up leaving many hungry another couple of years of utter desperation, starvation, fighting, just pure horror ensued they nearly died out entirely near the end many from the groups tried to pack-up what they could ready to try moving somewhere more hospitable but between monsters, mutants, killers &amp; no destination everything seemed futile.

Then a large group came wandering through their lands at the head of it two young teenagers, Though their supply's where limited they offered what little they could to the many small groups of the various survivors, even sharing medicine it wasn't long before the groups began inquiring where these strangers were from &amp; what they were up to. The same things had befallen them but when the land died &amp; supply's began thinning out, instead of fighting they pooled their resources and began a mass exodus lead by the children of two former leaders of the largest groups from where they had survived &amp; originated and they had explained they were following old notes &amp; a map north to a place said to be safe and secure where they could survive, the groups with the lack of resources quickly decided to join the exodus north through the destruction &amp; wastes in hope of finding this unknown haven.

With the experiences of the recently joined groups they were able to map different routes so they weren't all concentrated into one large group/target while trying to avoid the dangers previously encountered in attempts to move initially it had worked, but further north was unknown territory and already one of the split off groups failed to make the rendezvous, after a few days they choose to press on with the same plan they moved further north headed towards Alaska on the way the main group had fought off mutants &amp; raiders and crossed a expansive wasteland things just seemed to be getting bleaker as they went on, on the far boarder of the waste land they'd crossed they setup camp waiting for the other groups, a couple more had just vanished entirely, a third group had one very ill survivor manage to reach another of the groups on the way explaining they'd wandered into a heavy radiation zone attempting to avoid bandits &amp; had either died of exposure to radiation or killed by looters the lone survivor fell a day later. the few groups that made it had suffered at the hands on raiders, mutant tribes and one group lost a nearly half their people to a sacrificial cult that had offered them a place to rest.

Bettered &amp; demoralized they pressed on into the cold climate after even more trials &amp; weeks they'd finally reached the location on the map, finding some decaying buildings with only a handful of remains throughout the area from the old world, it was here the people collapsed to the ground giving up only the two leaders seemed to have the strength to press on wandering into a large building near the center it was also here that NORA was found &amp; the people's hope was renewed!, As a little investigation in the buildings files &amp; other buildings they found preserved foods stocked up, weaponry, detailed local maps &amp; shelter thus began the creation of the NORA republic and from the wrecks &amp; the ashes began building what would become the capital ""New Hope"" from there they could survive &amp; expand.

&lt;Still being worked on...&gt;</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Short bio:</span>
Ron was very young when he lost his parents but he recalls the stories he was told of his grandparents that had lived in the old world &amp; thus inherited the notebooks &amp; files that had been left to his parents, most of his teen years were spent journeying north in efforts to find a location his father &amp; a map in the notebooks he had that told him about a holdout of safety &amp; security. Ron Sterling is an inspiring youth that was able to shoulder the burden of many lives when he explained the situation to his group of survivors, a handful of the adults that hadn't died off with the same illness Rons father had suffered from causing his demise, Voiced their dislike for the idea or proclaiming he was trying to find something that probably doesn't exist anymore. None the less with dwindling resources &amp; living on the edge day to day everyone ultimately followed Rons lead. With the help &amp; support of his close friend Natasha Liethens they Traveled the great distance &amp; faced many hardships &amp; losses which ultimately brought hope &amp; a new start for the groups and survivors that joined along the way. Ron is now in his early twenties and has Dedicated himself to the newly founded republic &amp; works tirelessly into making it something great, Even though many hard decisions &amp; choices have to be made regularly he hasn't given way &amp; continues to shoulder even greater burdens which is why many see him as a true hero that ensures their safety &amp; that of their children.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other features:</span> Calm minded, intelligent, and resourceful. Dedicated to creating a haven for survivors seeking hope. Ron dislikes people calling him president or any other ruler title hence why people have turned to calling him ""boss"". Has a close relationship with Natasha from knowing each other since childhood, (Unknown to Natasha is why their groups/parents got on so well was because their parents had named each other as godparents to their children should anything happen to them despite both being from diffrent groups of survival hinting they were very close family friends) Ron often depends on Natasha but also supports her with any issues she's having in return. He also hasn't been able to admit any feelings for Natasha &amp; as a result often finds himself in the occasional awkward moment with her.</div></div>

Natasha Liethens was originally from a different group of survivors than Ron Sterling, but like him she was very young when she lost her parents to illness. Natashas parents had however taught her much in her early youth they even had a functioning laptop which they'd kept secret as they also had limited power from jury-rigged old world 'yacht' battery for it but thanks to which Natasha learned about computers &amp; many skills in their use, why her parents thought this knowledge would be handy to carry on in such times is unknown but greatly appreciated. Natasha was also one of the few if not the first to see the issues arising for her groups long-term survival especially after a mysterious disease also killed off most of her groups adults as well (including her parents) She sided with the idea of mobilizing &amp; moving north with Ron's group &amp; any others they could convince as well.

<span class=""bb-b"">Short bio:</span>
Tobias is a man getting on in his advanced years, whose fought through the worst &amp; he's survived to this day by fighting through hell-storms after that. A Combat Veteran long past deserving of retirement &amp; some small measure peace, He followed his Fathers orders trying to defend against the chaos that engulfed what was America, when his father was lost in battle he continued leading what was left of the us military, mercenary's &amp; volunteers in efforts to hold out &amp; protect innocents from harm. Him &amp; his few remaining men have seen it all from famine, disease, &amp; radiation poisoning, to Murderers, despots, cultists, Mutants &amp; monsters. They held out for years despite how futile &amp; desperate things got until one eventful day, An unknown broadcast of a young female voice came over the heavily worn &amp; overused military radio that had belonged to his fathers squad from the old world. It was as if all of his troops had gotten a sudden boot to their rears as they where running around shouting the news in amongst the cheering &amp; loud chatter. His radio operator was unable to reply due to their signal not being strong enough to reach back but had already began recalling all of their units that were out on recon knowing they'd want the news too. Tobias listened to the broadcast with heavy concentration &amp; held breath, the news of other peaceful survivors and civilization with a large populous of people having found a safe place to occupy, with reservations but hope he gathered what was left of his command &amp; what few civilians that they had managed to keep alive and hit the road &amp; journeyed north in search of this 'republic'.

To say he was a little dismayed at the initial sight, or rather the age of the republics leaders when he arrived would be an understatement. Also a lesser &amp; not so intuitive man might of tried assuming control as his trained veteran troops could of most likely dealt with the ramshackle of volunteer defenders, However he saw the dedication &amp; hope in their peoples faces, also that they where healthy and fed, even proper housing &amp; facility were available for all as needed further more their leaders seemed to confer to some length with the peoples opinions around them at Tobias's forces arrival showing there was still some bare-bones base level of democracy still being enforced which what ultimately convinced Tobias in letting his people join, his time &amp; experiences with them has only ensured his choice was right further &amp; his respect &amp; admiration for the two young founders having endured so much themselves &amp; what they're trying to accomplish making him a steadfast &amp; loyal member of the republic, who oversees military operation &amp; training for their now properly established and trained military, law enforcement, &amp; militia forces.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other features:</span> Dedicated, hardworking, No-nonsense, military tactician, loves cigars but due to the rarity only indulges as a private celebration for good days when nothing has happened &amp; no severe injury's or casualty due to hostilities have occurred. Also (like any other of the older adults) hasn't found it in his heart to explain to Ron or Natasha that the place &amp; sign they found on the wall inside the main building is actually 'NORAD defense command' &amp; not 'NORA' as the decay or damage of whatever went down here originally, obscured the last letter &amp; the words of what it stood for, and instead just goes along with it. He operates the military near by the capital from what was formally known as Fort Richardson using it as the militarys central command base.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Short bio:</span> People Initially feared Alexander due to his appearance &amp; his deep voice, but anyone who actually got to know him found peoples reactions hysterical as Alexander is one of the most intelligent, friendly &amp; kind people you're ever likely to meet. He's from one of the more recent groups to have arrived &amp; merged into the republic, His fondness for knowledge &amp; books is derived from his parents and had amassed a sizable collection in his travels, a collection that's only expanded ten-fold since arriving in the republic. He started small classes teaching kids how to read &amp; write early on as had many others from the various groups but it was Alexander that went out of his way to get together with other like minded teachers, sharing information and books getting specialists &amp; skilled craftsmen to teach their skills as well, it wasn't long before he approached Natasha during one of her volunteer gathering efforts for people willing to learn computer &amp; engineering skills after a long discussion with her &amp; a strange man that had been passing by the following day several guards in the capital had sought Alexander out &amp; escorted him to the restored main ground building which was now city hall upon entering he saw for the first time the massive letters on the wall reading 'NORA' above a heavily scorched picture of a partial shield with a wing &amp; part of a globe on it. Alexander had been escorted to the council room (door label read: command room) where he saw the strange man again who introduced himself as Ron Sterling, at a loss for words Alexander shook the mans hand and sat down at the indicated chair shortly after the Familiar Natasha entered along with a few others, and they began discussing his work in gathering teachers &amp; organizing them.

Thanks to Alexander Hund's work proper facility's have been established for education throughout the republics territory freely available for all to attend classes at, Each of the schools double as a public library &amp; storage of knowledge &amp; the every growing history records of events past &amp; present filling the gaps of what could of been lost to the ages. Copy's of every collected book are printed &amp; issued to every facility as are amounts of blank workbooks for student use, funding for this comes from the taxes &amp; revenue in place through the republic thanks to the Kurst brothers, Wilbert Kurst even teaches advanced mathematics classes occasionally in the capital school in return he enjoys games of scrabble against Alexander and some of his gifted English students. Ultimately Alexander Hund is in charge of all schools &amp; teachers overseeing their requirements &amp; operation along with his teaching duties.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other features:</span> Overly generous, highly intelligent, Kind, &amp; thoughtful of others. Upon becoming Minister of Education he had a custom jacket made with leather patches on the arms elbows (something he read in a book once about a teacher) inscribed above the breast pocket reads ""Mr. Hund"", a jacket he wears with pride everyday at work. As a result this jacket fad has spread amongst all registered teachers becoming an unofficial uniform. (Note: due to the popularity of the classes &amp; schools the leather patched jackets help people distinguish teachers from the other students, although recently issued id cards with blue cotton neck bands also help.)</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Characteristics:</span> 5ft'4, slender curvaceous build, White (Belarusian), Long jet-black hair, Light blue eyes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Short bio:</span> Нонна Катенька Was with a flotilla of ships wandering the oceans scavenging for supply's on every remote island &amp; adrift ships trying to avoid contact with any mainlands due to hostilities in the past They've been sailing &amp; rusting away since the world fell into chaos originally remnants of the Russian military &amp; merchant navies, they linked up with some British &amp; a handful of Japanese naval ships that got caught in the same situation. Their ships were in heavy disrepair and extensively jury-rigged to keep operating all these years Нонна or Nonna is the 3rd generation of their group of survivors born on-board the ships and was quickly recognized as a great talent quickly learning any &amp; everything she set her mind to. Due to strained resources &amp; the loss of several more ships pushed way beyond their limits further causing issues with overcrowding as a result they were becoming increasingly desperate. Their hope for life was rekindled  when a foreign transmission was received telling of a safe haven for survivors, seeing their situation it was an almost immediate &amp; unanimous decision to head for it. Their arrival &amp; integration into the republic was almost immediate some of the older people declaring now they have land to live on that they will never set their feet on board a ship ever again.

Nonna's abilities were quickly apparent and she proved quite skilled at military tactics so much so Tobias Volker tried to recruit her as an officer &amp; apprentice which she imminently refused, requesting to be allowed to remain with what was left of the navy, she was promptly given command from her groups superiors as now they had a new home had no interest in continuing operating the ships. With little use for a navy the ships they were left rusting in port, Nonna instead gaining rank in one of the settlements repairing &amp; re-purposing old-world factories allowing an increase in the metalwork industry &amp; mass production which rapidly increased the republics construction &amp; repair efforts as such earned her a position in the council as an industrialist. After several meetings Nonna began to trust the others &amp; began explaining reasons behind why she wished the navy to be operational upon their arrival to the republic explaining that horrors existed at sea &amp; not just on land also the increase in fish would help somewhat with food issues. Since Nonna now in her mid twenties has become a member in the high council &amp; is in charge of both civil &amp; military ships of the republic, and her desire to protect the people of the republic is no less than the others whom she highly admires &amp; respects. The settlement of Kenai is a rapidly progressing industrial center &amp; commercial fishing town which helps supply much of the republic with goods.
 
<span class=""bb-b"">Other features:</span> Calm minded, Graceful, Kind, Makes important decisions quickly with calculated resolve, Intelligent, skilled tactician, mechanic, loyal &amp; hardworking, It was with Nonna's assistance they managed to get the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System operational again allowing production &amp; transport of crude oil in the republic. She became close friends with Natasha Liethens when she helped repair &amp; restore electronics on the salvaged military ships while they were being made seaworthy again. Has a huge crush on the republics ruler Ron Sterling turning bright red nearly every-time she gets to talk to him directly during meetings somehow Natasha is unaware of this.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Short bio:</span> The Inuit where the only survivors that originally lived in the region when the others from the south came searching for a safe-place to call home there was much fear they where like the bandit gangs &amp; warlords to the south, to their surprise these travelers were peaceful and even shared what little medicine they had with the Inuit people both becoming fast friends &amp; dependent on each-other for survival, both against the monsters and the elements. They slowly came around to joining the republic &amp; aiding in the development of farms, hunting &amp; animal husbandry, they are now steadfast members of the republic of NORA &amp; are treated fairly as equals unlike the stories their elders told of the people in the old world.

Aluki is in her early thirties &amp; is in charge of overseeing all of the farming communities &amp; industries throughout the republic, Her management &amp; skill is the only reason the remote area suffer only occasional shortages &amp; not constant shortages of foodstuffs. She has the respect of many as her job is not an easy one, her tireless efforts to ensure productive long-term food supply are becoming strained but she's still managing to keep some order of balance.

Position in nation: Elected Mayor of Norv
Characteristics: 5ft'9, brown hair, average build, brown eyes, pale-white skin-tone, somewhat feminine facial structure (earning him the nickname ""prettyboy"" much to his discomfort).

Short bio: Jhon Hoolens is a very popular politician who has proven quite skilled in domestic affairs and local scale logistics, a diplomat of sorts between the people &amp; the higher ups though the majority overwhelmingly favor Ron Sterling &amp; Natasha Liethens, he has his own substantial following despite many of his own supporters strongly disliking his personal view of making peace with the more friendly mutant tribes to the south. Jhon while not disliking the current rulers is very vocal in his views of the current half &amp; half government in place wanting a fully established equal, &amp; free democratic system in place where the populous opinions &amp; votes make-up the overall decisions of the republic &amp; those choices to not be subject to the approval or disapproval of the High council members.

Other features: A chatty-cathy, Strong willed, Stubborn, An ambitious 'for the people' politician, He severely detests Raaz &amp; his warmongering views - openly declaring Raaz is exactly what the republic does not need in its officials.</div></div>

Position in nation: Governor-Militant of Kutal
Characteristics: 5ft'1 (claims 5ft'2), stocky build, overly muscular, blonde, one right-reddish eye, large scar over his sealed closed left eye, eye-patch, covered in battle wounds/scars.

Short bio: The rather loud individual known as Raaz is one of Tobias Volkers 'trusted' &amp; loyal officers serving in the military, placed in-charge of Kutal but given strict orders not to hassle mutant traders that visit the settlement (not that he has to the local merchants are more than happy to abuse &amp; con the mutant traders without being told to). His duties are to guard the 'gateway' to the republic from hostile outsiders a task he enthusiastically carries out, Raaz often makes requests ('often' as in daily) to be allowed to lead an expeditionary force to attack either the mutants or bandit warlord groups to the south &amp; gain territory and is 'often' told ""No!"" (that's after putting Volkers no-nonsense reply politely) thus causing raaz to loudly &amp; frustratingly announce his views &amp; thoughts loudly to those around him.

Other features: An Alcoholic, loud/foul-mouthed wild dog on a leash, skilled combatant, Obedient to his master, Psychotic Warmonger seeking glory. Raaz is a former '&amp; in his time rather ruthless' warlord who was ultimately subjugated by Tobias Volker (before they came north following the radio transmission), what caused Volker to spare &amp; recruit him was that amongst all the warlords at the time Raaz was the only one who displayed any decent tactical ability with his forces &amp; despite his extreme-love for combat he protected his civilian populous with utmost ferocity all of them being cared for &amp; fed to the best of his ability which also explained to Volker why Raaz's warriors where so fanatical &amp; dangerous opponents in the field. In return of Volkers treatment &amp; kindness to his civilians &amp; captured warriors on-top of his offer to spare his life &amp; join his forces Raaz holds the utmost respect &amp; loyalty to Tobias Volker following his orders to the letter!. 

Also due to being a former warlord his understanding &amp; negotiation skills have actually helped make peace with several bandit warlords to the south resulting in additional trade opportunities outside of the republic albeit is mostly manufactured small-arms &amp; ammunition going out in return they're getting a steady &amp; mixed assortment of goods coming in. It should also be noted that Raaz's tactical mind has shown through here too as his weapon deals are more generous in helping supply the smallest or weakest warlord faction against the larger factions, earning appreciation &amp; favoritism from the warlord in return, &amp; when they gain ground &amp; grow his deals with them normal out &amp; he then swaps supporting the newest small &amp; weakest faction with the same deals. This is helping ensure some measure of balance with the warlord factions to the southern boarders keeping any one from getting too powerful &amp; getting any ideas of coming north on raiding runs while doubling to ensure that the 'appreciative' warlords trade-goods to the republic are generous as they gain loot from their conquests.</div></div>

Seeing as the workforce she created pretty much owned everything local to their city area &amp; the influence she gained it's no surprise how she got elected mayoress. the name of the industrial city however is from an old-world fantasy book she had read in her youth which out of nostalgia or relevance to the industrial setting renamed the city to Midgar.

There are practically no limitations on the economy short of slavery. Pesos still exist, but they are rarely used by most people other than for long distance trade. Thus, bartering is very common among the people. There are merchants that travel on the highways and trade with surrounding areas.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Imports:</div>
Raw Metals (Iron, Lead, Zinc, Copper, etc.), Coal
<div class=""bb-h3"">Exports:</div>
Lumber, Dairy Products
<div class=""bb-h3"">Food/Water Sources:</div>
Water is obtained from various pond and lakes in the area. These also provide fish. A few crops are grown locally as well as livestock.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Pros:</div>
Due to the danger of the wastelands and crime most people are armed and competent with guns. Also, it would be difficult to attack Nuevo Chihuahua because of the perilous desert that surrounds it.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Cons:</div>
High crime rate due to the weak and corrupt police force. Also, the government is somewhat ineffective due to corruption, lack of resources, and overall incompetence. The military lacks supplies and sufficient training as well.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Mutants/Major hazards in area:</div>
There are pockets of heavy radiation and numerous damaged buildings in parts of Chihuahua. The areas off the road are infested with mutants and deadly animals.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Cascabeles(Rattlers):</span></span>
A mutated species of rattlesnakes that have become abnormally large; they are now approximately twice their original size of around 4ft. Their venom is so powerful that it is said that a bite can kill a full grown man in minutes.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Coyotes:</span></span>
Many packs of coyotes have become more vicious as a result of mutations. They have a heightened sense of smell and have much stronger jaws. They are known to attack livestock and rarely, traveling traders.
<div class=""bb-h3"">Backstory:</div>
The Reaper and the following nuclear warfare caused the Mexican government to collapse. Those who lived through the disease and warfare existed in a world of chaos. The Nuclear Winter destroyed the norms of society. The sense of brotherhood between men was lost. In this anarchy, it became a world of every-man for themselves. People had to fight others and the world around them to survive.

People banded together in the harsh wilderness to survive. Over time, these groups grew into communities which became small villages. They began to trade with each other and a society was formed. At first, each of these towns were independent. However, in 2064 the leaders of towns in the Chihuahua City area met and decided to band together to form a country. Over the last 24 years other villages joined, expanding the territory of Nuevo Chihuahua to the size it is today.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Beskermers van die Lewe(Protectors of Life)</span></span></div>
<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Culture/Beliefs:</span> The Beskermer van Die Lewe, or Protectors as they are more commonly called, are a large faction in the city of Cape Town which functions on the belief that all human life is sacred. Being a mostly militaristic faction, the majority of its population is comprised of fighters simply known as Aids. The citizens of the Protectors follow the lead of the Archbishop Joseph Kaguri, a former Roman Catholic father who took over about ten years back. Under Kaguri's leadership, several factions of survivors were united to form the Protectors. Every male is trained in the use of a sword or even the occasional old world gun.

Yet, the Protectors only kill when they feel it threatens the survival of other humans. They even abhor killing each other and, in the casae of fighting with other factions, will never aim to kill and only will aim to capture the agressors. Said agressors would then be placed in comfortable holding cells where they will meet with the Archbishop. No one quite knows what they talk about but, all that is known  is that the bad end of the conversation ends with the prisoners leaving with nothing but a weapon and two days ration while the good ending is with assimilation of the prisoner. In addition to their peaceful ways, the Protectors do not kill people who offend their laws. Instead, the offender is hooded and taken outside the patrol area where they are left to find their way back. Should the offender succesfully make it back, they are absolved of their crime.

Despite being a military regime at worst, the Protectors adhere to a strict code of conduct. Every member of the Protectors are treated as family and as such eat together, sleep together, and work together. Everything is done for the good of the faction. A death is mourned by every member of the faction and is burned on a pyre. All citizens in the faction are expected to attend a preaching from the Archbishop every sunday so long as they are catholic. If the citizen is not catholic, they are only expected to worship with their religious advisor every sunday.

<span class=""bb-b"">Old World Connections:</span> No known Old World connection. Though, it is assumed that the majority of the survivors came from a  bunker hidden under the Cape Town International Airport which was destroyed in an earthquake around two years after the formation of the Protectors.

<div class=""bb-h2""></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Populations:</span> 55,000 Military, 3 Religious Leaders(Catholic, Muslim, and Jewish), and 20,000 Civilians

<span class=""bb-b"">Government type:</span> Though the Protectors are a democracy, the most powerful member of the community is Archbishop Joseph Kaguri.

<span class=""bb-b"">Spoken Language:</span> Afrikaans and English, though english is more commonly spoken in large social settings.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economic System:</span> The Protectors are a free trade economy who's currency is based on the use of rations. A pack of rations, which is given to every citizen at six in the morning, noon, and six in the afternoon, can pay for items such as a gun or the occasional high quality machete. Even though a pack can buy high quality items, the seperate parts of the pack can buy items of equal quality if one finds the correct vendor. But, vendors are far and few between as too many people tend to keep ration packs safe in case of a shortage of food. The faction prefers to import only guns and ammunitions from the other factions in Cape Town that they are friendly with but will only do so if they have a surplus of food, water, or protection from the more hostile factions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Food/Water Sources:</span> Water is scarce in Cape Town but the main way the Protectors get the water they require is through the filtration of rain water. One of the other sources of water the Protectors can get is by boiling salt water in order to seperate the water from the salt. And, if their scavengers are lucky, they will occasionally find bottled water in the abandoned buildings of Cape Town. Food is the most difficult thing to find in Cape Town due to the majority of mutants being inedible or too hard to kill. But, a recent development in farming has made it possible for the Protectors to farm enough supplies in order to supplement their diets for what they are missing from scavenged food or food taken from mutants. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Pros:</span> Being a protector of the people has greatly raised the morale of the Protectors and have strengthened the relations to other factions. After having asserted themselves as a faction for the safety of Cape Town, the small factions of Cape Town have indentified themselves as friendly to the Protectors and as such have agreed to non-hostility with them. On top of that, said factions have been placed under protection. The size of the Protectors has also led  to quite a few avoidances of violence.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cons:</span> Though morale is raised due to the Protectors status in Cape Town, there are a few people who wonder whether or not it is a good idea for so much of their focus to be put towards protecting people. It has also caused tension between some of the large, though friendly, factions who believe that they don't need protection. The Protectors are also targets of theft from other factions who aren't so well off in their food and water. Often these thefts go undetected but if they are noticed, it often causes the Protectors to withdraw at least ten thousand soldiers from partols in order to protect the citizens.

<span class=""bb-b"">Mutants/Major Hazards:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Factions</span>- Cape Town is riddled with small factions. Out of around twenty factions in Cape Town, only five are friendly with the Protectors. Seven of the factions in Cape Town are large enough to be a threat to the Protectors. In fact, one faction has been trying to infiltrate the Protectors for around three years. These factions often make it difficult to travel through Cape Town as they often have tolls for passing through their lands. Occasionally factions will break apart into smaller factions or merge with other factions in order to gain power.

<span class=""bb-i"">Flooding</span>- Cape Town, being a sea side town, is subjected to seasonal flooding and flooding caused by heavy storms. This flooding can damage any food kept in low places or wash drown crops being grown. It also brings in Muskari(See Muskari below) from the ocean. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Muskari"" type=""button"">Muskari [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130429140409/the-american-godzilla/images/3/3d/21manta2.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Muskari</span>- Muskari are mutanted creatures of unkown origin. They range from about three inches in height to about eight inches. They can range, from wing tip to wing tip, around three to ten feet in width. Their total length has been measured to be around seven feet on average. Their large size is only matched by their large appetite. A single muskari is known to eat fifty to eighty pounds of food before resting. The muskari are extremely dangerous due to a poisnous barb attached their tails which can strike quickly and deatch once it hits it's target. The posion then starts to paralyze the target's nervous system which makes the prey easier to eat without the fight. The barbs do indeed grow back after a month and posion can be extracted from the glands in a muskari's tail.

<span class=""bb-i"">Gartuga</span>- The gartugas are believed to have mutated from some species of lizard living in the deserts around Cape Town. These monstrous lizards are known to be very territorial and as such will attack whoever, or whatever, enters its lands. Though the gartugas aren't commonly found within Cape Town, they patrol the lands outside and as such make it difficult to leave or enter Cape Town. At some point along their lives, the gartugas some how developed a sack of  oil which, when it comes into contact with oxygen, will ignite and burn up quickly. It is extremely difficult to kill a gartuga but, should one be fast enough, a person can go under a gartuga while it is distracted and slit its unarmored abdomen. Alterantively, a person can cut open the sack of oil, which is located just behind its jaw, and cause it to spill out and burn the gartuga alive. Despite being difficult to kill, a gartuga can be a very good source of food if one needs it as it can often yield around fifty to sixty pounds of edible meat.

<span class=""bb-i"">Wraths</span>- Wraths are mutated humans who, after serious exposure to radiation and a mutated strain of the Reaper, have become monsters. These horrors come out of burrows starting at dusk and do not go back until dawn. The wrath is, in a sort of sense, the emobodyment of anger. These creatures kill with such disdain for humanity and sensibility that all that is left afterwards is shredded meat and broken bones. Fighting a wrath is difficult due to their insane speed and ferocious attacks. The easiest way to kill a wrath is to douse it with oil and light it on fire. A wrath will avoid all sources of light and are seemingly weakened when  in bright lights such as flood lights.

<span class=""bb-i"">Rippers</span>- Rippers are what become of a human when they are mutated from radiation and a strain seperate of that that mutates the Wraths. This seperate strain of the Reaper causes the afflicted human to crave blood in such a form that they will begin to drain themselves. In the early stage of infection, the human will be sensitive to light and will slip into a sort of dementia like state. They will start to follow the same waning cycle that an elderly person with dementia would have and would eventually degrade to the point where all they do is sleep all day. Then, at some point along the line the infected will sleep only during the day and wonder around at night. Their eyes will change from their normale hue to nothing but red where their eyes were white and their eyes and pupils will become a opalescent white. Eventually, the infected will disappear all together and will then enter its final stage after being in a sort of chrysalid form. 

After leaving the chrysalid, the ripper is offically fully mutated and as such will no longer function on any rational thought. Instead, the ripper will only function on their base needs which consists of feeding on blood and surviving. Killing a ripper is fairly simple should you be able to shine a light on it. Otherwise, the creature will be too hard to catch and will often heal their wounds in a few hours. These creatures come out at night like a wrath does but do not go into burrows. Instead, a ripper is found sleeping in buidlings or flooded subways that are almost pitch black. 

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Crawlers"" type=""button"">Crawlers [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs30/f/2008/080/f/c/fc5e0d682a7458ff.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-i"">Crawlers</span>- A crawler is a monstrosity unlike many others that reside in Cape Town. This ten foot tall creature has unkown origins and it is unkown why they live in Cape Town. Yet, a crawler is not neccesarily a dangerous creature. In fact, despite its apperance, crawlers are notably gentle creatures who eat primarily vegtables. If one spends enough time with a crawler, it might allow said person to ride it like one would a horse. Yet, one must watch out for an Alpha crawler during the summer time for they are increasignly hostile during this season of mating.

<span class=""bb-b"">Backstory:</span> The Protectors were formed around ten years ago after three small factions were united under the rule of Archbishop Kaguri. Their singular goal was to unite and protect the people of Cape Town against mutants who, in their eyes, were classified as demons sent to Earth by the Devil himself. With this goal in mind, those who could fight trained others to fight. Those who could make weapons made them. From the very beginning, the Protectors were an organization devoted to nothing but the protection and survival of humans. Though their guns are small, numbering only ten thousand, they are strong users of machetes and as such have fought all their battles with a machete in hand. After a year's worth of training, the Protectors began their job and have drawn quite a few followers to themselves in that time. Kaguri's preaching if non-hostility to humans served to strengthen his follower's committment and helped build relations with the smaller factions. 

After three years, the Protectors base of operations, a former bunker, fell apart and they offically became an above ground operations unit. About a year ago, there was an attempt on Kaguri's life which led to the exile of ten thousand people from Cape Town. Only three hundred came back. Since then, the Protectors have seen no internal agression. It is believed that the Protectors will soon be expanding their control through the assimilation of one of the smaller factions.</div></div></div>"

The men and women of the Koltsevaya Coalition are celebrating the defeat of the bandit stronghold in Buninskaya Alleya. The Rangers responsible for the destruction of the bandits returned early this morning, among them Ranger Commander Nicolai Mikhailov. In recent days people have noticing an increase in Nosalises around many stations, this is believed to be caused by a new break into the Metro from the surface. When asked about the recent increase in hostiles the Ranger Commander replied ""A squad of Rangers have already been deployed to search for the opening and close it if necessary or fortify it as a new entrance."" In other news, many stations have begun taking territory toward the center of the metro and Rangers have been deployed to ensure no violent clashes occur between station forces.

No significant changes in the population of the Koltsevaya Coalition or other major happenings.

<img src=""http://i.imgur.com/nYnHyHB.jpg?1""/>
Kaiser Nikolaus Jäger looked upon the frozen expanse of his nation's water source. Looking behind him, a swarm of green chanted ""Death to the Fourth Reich! The Confederations will remain supreme!""

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Tod dem Vierten Reich. Die Konföderationen wird höchste bleiben!</blockquote>
Yet on the east of the lake, red was the banner of choice. The Führer Jakob Schmidt rallied his men. Lake Constance was nearly the last source of fresh water in all of Groß Deutschland. With the seal of the Confederations, Jäger boldly gave the order: ""Attack the insurgent scum! They are no more than dogs claiming to be Germany!""

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Angriff der Aufständischen Abschaum! Sie sind nicht mehr als Hunde, die behaupten, von Deutschland zu sein!</blockquote>
A great battle followed. The sounds of rifles filled the air, and the air forces went ahead into dogfights. Divided directly down the middle, no side seemed to gain ground. No trenches could be dug, just slaughter on the ice that would drown them. It was only 30 seconds before the first troop of the Rheinland died. As blood spilled on the ice, the two leaders attempted to make each other out through observation technology. Just when Rheinland was gaining meaningful ground, the Fourth Reich called in an airstrike. The line was exposed, and a sea of crimson marched toward Jäger. It was time for the weapon he had been waiting to unveil. As soon as he gave the signal, 5 elite pilots ran toward the red. All infantry was ordered to immediately retreat. Half of the Fourth Reich army, 500,000 in total, marched within 5 miles of Jäger's camp. He stayed, as a trick, and waved a white flag. They marched faster, but they were too late. A chopper had picked him up, and by now the pilots had laid their trap. All of lake Constance suddenly turned to water for the first time since the apocalypse. Even in the summer, it was frozen over. A few square kilometers went up in flame, but then dispersed just as quickly as they had been laid. Jäger snickered at the sight of the commander's vessel carrying the Führer away.</div>"

Things were all normal within the Union, things moved on people died and babies were born. Spirits were high seeing as once again The Ashland River Dragons had just beat the Fort Knox Goldiggers in their much smaller version of the super bowl, so people who didn't come from within the Capital were feeling ten feet tall. Throughout the streets of many settlements people celebrated. Hooting and howling, as well as getting drunk on homemade moonshine or the much more expensive ""Kentucky Hooch"" They were allowed to celebrate but their protectors sat upon the walls watching wishing that it was them their machine guns pointing out of the wall looking for threats outside of them unaware of the ones within.

In one of the more popular bars in the capital a place where senators frequented due to the expensive array of alcohol and the loose women who inhabited it. A large bag chimed loudly and then there was a loud explosion that consumed half of the bar in a large fireball, the shockwave blew out windows and killed many who were in it's path, those further away from the blast were deafened momentarily. Almost instantly the military was in action, filling up buckets with water and throwing it on anything that caught fire. Making a line and passing up buckets, and that was the night things changed. 

<span class=""bb-b"">The Next Day</span>

The weather was mild and the sun still rose on the streets before them were a gathered array of people, the ones in the first few rows were senators, and behind them were widows and orphans dressed in black. Travis Knight sat to the left of Claira the leader of the outriders and his boss, and on her right sat a general who was wearing the pure black dress uniform his father had made for officers. They sat on a stage overlooking the gathered crowd, waiting for his father to emerge from behind the curtain. When he did emerge it was to a entire band playing him off and everyone in the audience bowing down to him head to the ground, when he didn't do it Claira shot him a look and Travis quickly bowed down to his own father. ""You may rise my people."" His father said, speaking into the microphone that had been provided for him on a podium. Hesitantly they rose and Joseph Knight spoke again. ""The Lords of Ruin are claiming this attack! They killed good men and women, they've caused us nothing but grief."" He said, and paused looking to the crowd for subtle cues. ""I say no more will we let them get away with this, no more will they plague us and cause us harm. We will kill them, and hang their bodies in the streets so we can show anyone like them that we will not take this anymore!"" He shouted, his voice speaking with passion and fervor that even the most devout priest would be hard to match. ""We go to war today! And we will kill any who oppose us!"" He shouted, and there were claps and whoops among the crowd. ""This will not stop until they lie broken at our feet."" He said, and turned away from the podium people now clapping and hollering. The sound was deafening as Travis watched his father walk off the stage and into the horse drawn carriage he rode around in. Gently he rose and Claira met his eyes and nodded.

It didn't take long for the officers to meet, they were sat around a large oaken table in a meeting room within Fort Knox itself, they had been talking about what they were going to do for over half a hour and they finally agreed on a plan of action. So they were just starting to file out of the room, soon enough it was just Travis and Claira sitting alone in the meeting room and she turned to him. ""So you think you're actually fighting don't you?"" She asked him, Travis tensed and looked to her. ""I'm not fighting?"" He asked.
""And risk the life of the presidents only child? You think i enjoy the thought of dying. No instead me and you are going on a nice little road trip to Missouri. We got some things to trade off, perhaps we can get something good out of them. We are still looking for a old world flag after all.""
""I guess that sounds alright.""
""Hah it will be fun, riding the worms. Making camp under the stars, much better than being shot at constantly i assure you.""
Travis said nothing, instead he rose and walked out of the room without waiting to be dismissed. He was pissed, people had coddled him for all his life because he was the presidents son and now even his commander was doing it he should of been fighting but he would go along with this mission, perhaps something would happen to him anyways.

China
Xinjiang Region
The Kunlun Mountains
G219</span></span>

Ran decided that he hated these mountains.

Under normal circumstances, Ran was fine with mountains. He had even lived on a few. The surrounding slopes and ridges were entirely unlike any other king of mountain range Ran had ever heard of though. Where the ground didn't have the texture and color of dead, pockmarked flesh, it the color of dusken rust. The air was freezing, but also dry and stale. These mountains had more in common with the Lunar surface than with anything else, and having to be in them was so far proving to be a thoroughly shitty experience.

They wouldn't have even been here if it hadn't been for the old-world roadmap they had found, showing a convenient route leading straight from Xinjiang to Tibet, the only road in all of China to do so, cutting a more or less straight path straight through the mountains. The only other route through the Qinghai region looped around and was more than four times longer. At the time cutting through the mountains on the G219 'highway' had seemed like a good idea, given the convoy's limited fuel. Looking back, Ran was of the opinion that they should have just forgotten about going to Tibet entirely. 

Calling the G219 a highway was a generous description for the single-lane, eroded, winding road. Steeply inclined, winding and turning so often Ran was convinced they weren't even heading South, and frequently the whole thing would simply vanish into dead rock or mud without a trace. Had it been up to Ran, the entire convoy would have turned around days ago. Nailtooth was adamant though - the convoy was to push on. The one grace was that the mountains, at least for the moment, seemed devoid of mutants - the scouts Nailtooth sent out every time the convoy stopped at a dead end to rediscover the trail never saw anything strange.

A few hours ago, the road had vanished into bedrock again, sharply inclined and ridged. The road reemerged just a few dozen meters down, but then turned into a U and vanished again. Nailtooth had ordered the entire convoy down the ridges, which were too steep for any of the trucks to go back up - and so now they were all stuck until the scouts could find the road again. And so Ran leaned against the front of the idling truck at the head of the convoy, trying to steal what little warmth remained from the rapidly cooling engine as he stared at the great natura masterpiece that was <span class=""bb-i"">Empty Night Sky over Barren Hills of Rocks</span>. He readjusted the strap for his AK-74 uncomfortably as he tried to keep it steady on his back while folding both hands under his arms. Another factor contributing to his dislike of the mountains here, he had drawn the lot for guard duty the entire last week. He'd only had scant break shifts in the truck where they kept all the food, and every night he had slept in ragged blankets instead of one of the sleeping bags. He wasn't going to complain - Nailtooth didn't take any shit. The last people to complain had been stripped, tied up, and then rolled down a crevice. But if things didn't change soon, one way or another, Ran was seriously considering making a break for it with as much food as he could carry. If there was one thing he would miss, it would be the women they had picked up being kept in the rear van. Surviving for future conquests was more appealing still than being stuck in a rut, but nonetheless, for now he just waited. Last time he had looked at the map, they had been nearing some kind of station just before the convoy had run across the dead end. Perhaps things would start turning around soon.

There was a distant series of cracks, and Ran felt three small objects thud into his chest. He slumped, fell, and died before he hit the ground.

The entire convoy erupted into chaos as gunfire began to crisscross from both sides of the road, muzzle flashes blooming seemingly from thin air. A few of the convoy guards managed to unstrap their weapons and return fire, but in the darkness they couldn't see the forms of their attackers, blending in with the mud and the rocks almost perfectly. Even the flash from their gunfire didn't help, as it came and went in bursts and waves, improbably coordinated to deny the convoy any chance of drawing a bead on their attackers.

In the end, only three of the raiders survived. Their assailants, numbering five in total, were dressed in roughshod fatigues and mismatched ballistic armor - but they all carried seemingly pristine TAR-21s, and they moved in completely silence, using only brief hand signals as they swept through the line of stalled trucks. All of them wore bands of dull, intertwined green and yellow cloth wrapped around their necks, but otherwise lacked any distinguishing marks. Once they had disarmed the three raiders that had surrendered, they executed them on the spot and spent the next ten minutes checking every body to make sure each of the intruders was truly dead. They left the various affects and items the corpses carried untouched.

Next they searched all four of the trucks. They opened the heavy rear doors, briefly scanned the interiors, and then closed them. When the five came to the final truck and found the women inside, they finally paused in their otherwise relentless sweep.

One of them spoke a number of short, curt phrases in numerous languages. Mandrarin, Hindi, and Mongolian - when the women only returned blank stares, the leader shrugged and closed the doors again, securing the lock that had held them shut. He pulled out a short-range radio and made his report.

""Mazha Palace Actual, this is Haungdi Seven Lead, please ready to copy, over.""

<span class=""bb-i"">""Roger Lead. Ready to receive, over.""</span>

""Interception is successful, no casualties, twenty four confirmed takedowns. Bandit liquid assets include four trucks, bulk shipment, twenty gallons of gasoline, several provision crates, eleven sleeping bags, two space heaters, various small arms, ammunition, affects, and seven slaves. Over.""

<span class=""bb-i"">""Roger Lead, copy is complete. Yali force will converge on the asset site via the Zenith pathway and will secure the recorded materials. Your orders are to recall to Mazha Palace Zulu immediately, over.""</span>

""Wilco, out."" The leader pocketed the radio and made a gesture to the other four militants. They all fell into single-file and tracked off the road, vanishing into the steppes.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-s"">888888888888</span></div>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Kunlun Mountains
Mazhada La</span></span>

The Mazhada lamasery, even in its glory days, had never been anything more than a small stone shack next to a stone bridge traversing the muddy end of a mountain rapid. Being so small, its few occupants had vacated shortly after the end of the world to seek refuge in one of the larger lamaseries. Now it was simply being used as a Squad resupply and rest stop. Haungdi Seven shuffled in one by one, silently picking out space on the floor to sit down and start stripping their rifles for maintenance.

""The trucks had Russian markings."" One of the militants said conversationally. ""Didn't Fenghuang say there was a city of survivors up there?""

""Was. Recent survey says somebody dusted them."" The squad leader replied. ""May even have been our departed friends. There aren't many other places they could have gotten the gas to run those trucks.""

""Either that or they ran through after the place was torn down. Personally, I say it was mutants. I keep hearing about twenty foot tall demons that breath lightning.""

""There has been trickle down regarding mutants somewhere far West. Apparently the closer you get to Central Europe, the bigger and meaner they get. Makes me glad the worst we have to deal with is other people.""

""Don't get complacent. The militants to the Southwest may be our primary concern, but there have been mutants migrating into Kunlun from every direction for years now. You don't hear about them often because the only places with food tend to be the valleys...""

""Which we occupy."" The leader finished. ""But I am of a like mind. We can't be everywhere at once. There are plenty of crags and crannies where there could be whole nests of mutants. We could search for decades and never find them.""

The newest member of the squad, fresh out of basic training, finally spoke up. ""Also, I think we're all forgetting what's important. Everyone knows we're the last bastion of civilization for thousands of miles in every direction. Eventually everyone will realize it's better to come to us and join rather than fight us. The Yellow Emperor will soon be posed to emerge from Jade Palace Zulu and start reviving the old world.""

All four of his comrades burst out laughing. ""Hey!"" He protested. ""What's the joke? Everyone knows about that.""

""Kid, I don't know what you heard in the villages or in training, but there is no Yellow Emperor."" The squad leader said, rolling their eyes with a half smile on their face. ""There is a Jade Palace Zulu, but it's just a regular Lamasery. It's about fifty klicks from here. Our actual ops center is Qilin Base, in the Aksai Chin.""

""Wait, that's not what I heard. My last squad leader said Qilin Base was here in Xinjiang."" One of the other militants said, frowning as they looked up from their rifle.

""Both of you settle down, I've actually been to Qilin Base. It's wedged between Xinjiang and the Chin. It's where all the real action goes on. Most marauders and the worse mutants come from that direction, so that's where the bulk of our forces are mustered. I even saw a few artillery pieces when I was stationed there.""

""That sounds right. My mistake."" The squad leader nodded.

""But what about the Yellow Emperor? If he doesn't exist, who leads the Jade Palace?"" The rookie asked.

The squad leader shrugged. ""Some local militia leader who probably managed to convince everyone to work together. Reason it worked here instead of everywhere else is because Kunlun was not burned by the great blaze.""

""You don't actually know?"" The rookie asked incredulously. 

""No, I don't, but it doesn't matter. You were still at least half right. Eventually, people will realize the Jade Palace is the future, and come to us. And if half of them are as gullible as you, maybe the history books will even have their own Yellow Emperor.""

Perched lazily on a mound of rock several meters outside the shack, a Qilin lazily flicked its forked tongue at the shack, listening curiously to the barbling animal noises from within. After a few moments it snorted, a small arc of electrostatic energy streaking from its horns and across the surface of the boulder it was resting on. It then leapt forward off into the air and flew away.</div>"

A Ceiling light kept flickering on &amp; off audibly clicking each time as it struggled for life eventually with a loud clunk-like noise it managed to stay lit illuminating the corner of the office it covered. The president Ron Sterling now returning his attention from the light back to the ongoing meeting of the high council remaining in silence as Volker was finishing his explanation of the latest patrol changes for the northern parts of the republic in his dull but deep sounding voice ""And that concludes my report sir! i would just like to add i have also submitted accommodation requests for some junior officers whose quick thinking &amp; abilities have helped resolve several severe matters before they got out of control"", With that Volker put down the stack of papers he had outlining his report on the desk.

After a brief pause the president spoke up ""Thank you Tobias i trust in your judgement on those matters also i will review those requests in due time, Now a pressing matter of business id like to know about before we proceed with anything else!, Mira whats the status with the oil pipeline issue i heard about this morning?"". With that the mature dark beauty in the room turned calmly in her chair to face the president across the large office desk smiling confidently ""A couple of hours ago it was resolved after the engineers found where the damage was they promptly set-about with the repairs and the pipeline &amp; pump-stations have resumed full operation again, and i have crews out mopping up the oil spillage as we speak, however... this whole issue has caused quite a setback and the refineries are still being brought back into operation to process the crude oil into fuel in Midgar..."". Another woman abruptly cut in with her slight but noticeable Russian accent however she promptly turned a bright shade of red in the process ""My refineries in Kenai however are fully operational &amp; ever since the pipeline has been restored they've been,.. processing... the... oil..."", Her speech slowly dimmed down into mumbling as she noticed the intense glare she was getting from Mira Hawks only now realizing she'd cut her off mid-speech. everyone else besides them two began quietly snickering to themselves at the sight of this before the president cut in again ending the matter. ""Very good! see that the repair crews are congratulated for their efforts, i know some of the workforce will still be distressed about the inactivity but there's not much we can do about that just get everything back up to scratch by this evening please"", Mira simply nodded in response before reading over the excess paperwork she'd brought from her office not wanting to waste anytime in getting back to work.

The kurst brothers barely had any presence in the meeting both simply saying ""everything was fine &amp; should continue to run smoothly"" before they went back to their private discussion. Even the the visually out of place hulking tank Alexander Hund quietly sat in his chair claiming no pressing matters from the education board. The chief medical official Klein Reik took the opportunity to speak up again pressing the issue again that they need to either start scouting out unexplored areas to gather more medicine or start constructing dedicated labs to create their own for mass production which as normal would of turned into another argument between Mira, Reik, &amp; the kurst twins if the Head of agriculture Innugati hadn't cut in ""That is a real concern yes, but as always the republics food supply is of equal if not more concern!"" Reik giving a sideways glance at Innugati for that comment as she continued. ""what little surplus we had stored got distributed to twin tree &amp; several of the Inuit villages that wont merge with the republic due to very poor crop yields, we really should be focusing our efforts into creating more viable food sources, If we continue as is the shortages are going to get a lot more frequent &amp; severe if the recent estimates of the republics population growth are anything to go by, i Strongly think we should risk long distance broadcasts again in hopes of finding trading partners as a short term boon to this matter"".

The room went quiet for a bit before the president nodded ""I'll consider it, and Reik i know every time i meet or pass you you bring it up trust me i know! but everything still a balancing act at the moment &amp; we can only invest in certain projects decided on by urgency"". Then Hoolens tried to jump in saying they should open their boarders to the mutant tribes for better trade but he is shot down &amp; drowned out by the rest of the high council. the meeting continued for another hour before it was dismissed and a tired &amp; weary looking president slumped in the head chair at the table only seconds passed before he noticed Natasha &amp; Nonna were still hanging around. ""Hey Nat you're people managed to get access to them yet?"", Natasha Liethens shook her head ""can't find or bypass the safety locks or activation codes but we're still trying, the security is like nothing any of us have seen thus far, although we made a weird discovery in that underground warehouse we found in old schematics strange vehicles but nowhere for the operators to sit in it i split the teams &amp; let them take a crack at these vehicles instead"". The president nodded ""fine, just notify me on any significant updates"". The president then faced Nonna who seemed an even deeper shade of red then before but before he could speak she'd exited the meeting room, Ron Sterling though confused at the reaction he got just stood up &amp; began heading back to his own office deep in contemplation.

He could see the Füher Jakob Schmit looking from the ruins of a skyscraper. He blasted the Vietan Reich war cry on every audio equipment they had available.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Wir werden alten Ställe oder auf den Untergebenen! <br/>[We will reign supreme over the lesser!]</blockquote><br/>This was no longer a battle of resources–this was a battle of honor.<br/><br/>Someone looking upon Jäger may say he did not possess honor. Looking at his tactics, he granted showed little of combat honor. Indeed, Jäger's honor was complex. He saw no honor in mercy, nor any in diverting his troops to meaningless, open-field violence when it was unnecessary. His code of honor stated, however, that Munich belonged to him, and furthermore, that the Füher's head shall be impaled on it's peak. He was born and raised in Munich. He fled to Mainz after the Fascist Rising, but he never forgot his roots. Schmidt had taken Munich, now Jäger's code demanded that all come to balance. That is how he saw the world: Balance. Now, it was time for fate to add the heights of triumph to the side of the Konföderationen. Not that he believed such things of course, but it was the correct visual metaphor. Regardless of all of this high-minded talk, he had a more practical plan, one involving a fight very imbalanced compared to his philosophies.<br/><br/><blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Gehen!</blockquote><br/>An ambush team met at small clearing in the outskirts. A patrol would come soon, hopefully with the Generaloberst with them. There were a few escaped mutants in this part of south Germany, and since they had nothing better to do, they decided to display a show of brute force, led by the Generaloberst. Nothing a few well placed bombs could not handle. Jäger watched from his carefully camouflaged perch, waiting and watching. He waited until the Generaloberst was safely between two bombs, then gave his mark.<br/><br/>Half of the patrol was caught by the bombs, and the rest surrendered. The surrendered would be executed in the public square tomorrow at 5:00 PM, provided they were less than Kommodore. The Generaloberst nonetheless required special orders to make positive she was taken alive. The Konföderationen had been lucky, quite a few officers in the patrol. They were bound in ropes and chains, then duct-taped over the mouth as they marched to the interrogation chambers. As was standard protocol, the last officer to the chamber was shot in front of the Generaloberst as a display of total power. She was frightened. Phase 2 of Jäger's plan would soon go into effect.</div>"

It was near time for the day's session to end and there was a lull in the proceedings. Overall, it had been a productive day. They had reached an agreement regarding raising taxes on incoming trade. It was one of the last issues left keeping a budget from being passed. As a result, almost everyone was left in a good mood. At last, a man rose from his seat and walked to the front of the room. He was one of the representatives from Oderña, a town which was receiving a good chunk of the extra tax money generated. He would be the final one addressing the group as a whole today. He stood behind the podium on the platform and, once the group had quieted, began to speak. ""Today we have come to consensus on the issue of taxing incoming trade. I would like to thank my fellow congressmen for accepting and enthusiastically supporting this tax increase. The taxes collected will be very beneficial in improving the lives of citizens all throughout Nuevo Chihuahua. I believe that with these extra funds we'll be able to...""<br/><br/>Gabriel Méndez was not paying full attention to what the man was saying. On days like this, the last speaker usually just summarized the day's accomplishments. Today was no different. He had already seen what happened. He was quite active in the discussion over the last few days. In fact he was one of the congressmen to propose the change. Nothing he heard was anything new to him. Méndez took a quick glance to his side. A few rays of lazy sunlight were entering the room through the windows to the left. To his right, a wall filled with old portraits of past Mexican leaders. Men, and a few women, were seated all around him in chairs similar to his, arranged in a semi-circle around the podium. He was seated in the back slightly to the right of the podium. As the speech droned endlessly on, his thoughts began to wander, only paying half attention to the words he heard. His mind was filled with thoughts of his wife and children back home. He rarely saw them due to the nature of his work. He checked the clock on the wall. Quarter to six. They were ending earlier than usual. <span class=""bb-i"">I'll be home for dinner tonight</span>, he thought to himself with a smile.<br/><br/>The speaker was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. The room fell silent as every head turned to stare at the panting young man in the doorway. He was clutching a folder filled with papers in his hands. A barely audible ""Message for Congress"" escaped his lips as he strode up to the podium. He handed the speaker the report, then collapsed in a chair to catch his breath. The congressman's eyes bulged as he read, not once leaving the paper. After he finished, he took a deep breath and faced the group. ""Ladies and Gentlemen,"" he said solemnly, ""I am afraid that I have to announce some tragic news. You should all know of the incident with army outpost Renaldo. We lost contact with it two days ago. At first, we believed this was due to a technical problem. However, the scouting party sent to investigate discovered the remnants of a battle. The outpost was attacked and its armoury was ransacked. No survivors were found but there are still 12 missing. Search parties have been sent to explore the surrounding area. May we catch the sons-of-bitches that did this."" Gasps could be heard around the audience as the severity of his words sunk it. <br/><br/>It was going to be a long night.</div>"

It was a true beauty, one of the last high invented before the apocalypse: a solar energy plane. Originally built for passenger use, it had been modified to accommodate various guns and bombs. It was painted green, with the Rheinland insignia on both sides. He proceeded to his Class I cabin, along with a few generals. The rest of his bodyguards and cabinet were toward the back in order of importance. Another, similar, plane sat beside him on the runway remnants. Both were carrying the strike team sent to catch the Füher in Brussels, where he was planning an occupation. Brussels as ruled by a few scattered tribes, plagued by starvation. They would easily surrender to whoever came first. <br/><br/>It was not a very long flight, and they landed right next to the city entrance in the rubble that would welcome the Füher. The Generaloberst they had interrogated told Jäger that he would be arriving only with a few trusted bodyguards, as Brussels was being occupied by a strike team coming from the south. Apparently, the Füher always entered on the opposite side of his strike team, as to avoid capture in the scenario of defeat. <span class=""bb-i"">Good thing we found out.</span>. 120 armed assassins waited on various positions along the entry rout, hidden very carefully. They saw the motorcade.<br/><br/>It was Kommandant Anne Hansburg that fired the shot. Windows shattered, and chaos was in the eyes of all. The bodyguards were quickly captured, interrogated, then executed or detained as appropriate. The Füher's corpse was dragged onto a cooling department in the plane. Jäger had purchased a special piece of old-world tech for the occasion: A preservation tank.

One virus in particular stood out. The Reaper. It killed within a week of contraction and was spread through all vectors. It was the ultimate death machine. After the war it took on an even more devastating role causing the rise of mutants and the extinction of several species. Most of the strains of the virus are now unable to infect humans but some do still exist. This came only after a streak of the worst case natural disasters struck all the world. In its crippled state, man was weak, fragile and terrorists took advantage of the situation. In the last meeting of the United Nations, briefcases were set in front of each member of the council and each was given a key. In under an hour the world was bathed in nuclear fire and radiation. That was the rumor going around in 2032, now people aren't so sure. After 73 years humanity has lost nearly 90% of its population and only now are places on the surface beginning to become habitable again. Humanity found its place in the coldest, highest, lowest and hottest places on Earth. From the ashes of the old world human civilization once again emerges to stake its claim in a world rampant with mutation, disease and radiation. This world was alien to so many that survived the apocalypse. The wastes welcomed the human survivors with hellish landscapes and terrifying mutants. Farmland was hardly sufficient for any large civilizations and people could barely manage to collect the resources needed to build hydroponic farms and raise livestock. Many people have taken to eating certain kinds of mutants and using what old world food supplies they can find.

The plague that ravaged the rest of the world left the many vales and idle peoples of the mountains unspoiled. 

Their geographically isolation protected them once more when the bombs fell, the Mountains were again left almost untouched, partially due to their proximity to the Aksai Chin and the complete lack of any densely packed civilian population centers and/or strategic infrastructure.

When the Nuclear Winter came, even then the many hidden places of the mountains did not balk - they were no strangers to days of perpetual darkness. Many died, but many more endured than elsewhere.

When the soot cleared from the skies and the sun began to shine once more, a group designating itself as the Jade Palace emerged within the Kunlun Mountains and made successive contact with the many lamaseries and their survivors, and from there began to mount a sophisticated and organized recovery effort. The Jade Palace was an inexplicable military force out of nowhere, possessing old-world military arms and training. As men and women began pouring into the region, following promises of lost utopian cities and sacred vales, they found the Guardians of the Jade Palace and Tibetan Buddhist Monks offering them shelter and protection in exchange for menial labor. Over the last decade, small, ramshackle settlements have arisen around abandoned lodges and resorts around the outskirts of the mountain range, filled with peoples of every regional ethnicity and background. Each settlement was arranged to coordinate with a central Lamasery with the closest local proximity, where the forces of the Jade Palace mustered their forces and formed a coterie with the local monks. 

Thus the modern nation of Shangri-La was formed, with the Jade Palace acting as the nominal military authority, using the Buddhist monks to establish rapport and ideological control over the surrounding settlements. The settlements are peaceful havens, relatively impoverished but well protected and capable of a modest means of self-sustenance. The lamaseries of the inner-mountain range have been transformed into forts and military bases, making up in location what they lacked in stolid construction.

And somewhere, hidden in an undisclosed location within the range, lies the Jade Palace, which according to local rumor and superstition is where the next Yellow Emperor has arisen, ready to soon emerge and bring civilization to the disparate peoples of the world once again.</div></div><span class=""bb-b"">Populations:</span> There has not been an official census for some time. An educated guess would place their numbers between seven and ten thousand, the majority being native Tibetans and Chinese Refugees from the Xinjiang Province with smaller minorities formed by those from India and Pakistan.
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Government"" type=""button"">Government [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Shangri-La is a Military Junta. The Forces of the Jade Palace maintain a centralized region of control within the vales of the Kunlun mountain range, actively patrolling them with organized military squads armed with old-world weapons. These forces nominally scout for and protect the civilian settlements around and within the mountain range itself, although they have been known to occasionally 'requisition' goods and services from the settlements without prior notice. They also occasionally 'draft' young children without the consent of their parents.

A semblance of order is maintained by local lamasery monks, who have established rapport with the Jade Palace. The sight of orange robes is a common sight in the settlements, where the Buddhists act as the equivalent of a mayor, keeping track of and organizing all local affairs on an individual basis. They also dispense advice and relay information provided by the Jade Palace, including instructions on how to survive and what resources are or can be made available.

Each settlement functions as a disorganized communal borough. Everybody works, either growing crops, herding, or else producing various raw materials. Settlements are made around old-world resorts and lodges, which serve as community centers and as a public barracks. Around these, ramshackle huts and dwellings made of anything on hand, be it cars, sheet-metal, wood, or otherwise, are erected. Community assets and resources are stockpiled in the community centers, which have a token guard from the Jade Palace acting as peace-keepers.

Within the Kunlun mountain range, a number of Tibetan lamaseries exist where Tibetan order Buddhists make their homes. These lamaseries act as local garrisons and headquarters for the Jade Palace forces, which regularly muster and deploy their forces from these locations. A number of military directors and executives discuss the affairs of the region with the monks and determine how to proceed. The directors have ultimate authority, although it is said by some that they report to a central authority known as the Yellow Emperor.</div></div><span class=""bb-b"">Spoken language:</span> Several adopted from the numerous bordering regions.

Food is scarcer, limited largely to cereal growth in a few isolated vales or along the outskirts of the region and several individual goat herds. Most locals have ample access to fresh vegetables, clean water, and usually even milk and cheese. There is a severe shortage of fruits and meat, with soybean crops being widely distributed in an effort to make up for this.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Advantages"" type=""button"">Advantages [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">The Trials of Passage:</span> The lamaseries of the Kunlun Mountain range are well-secreted away, usually not being located even on old-world maps, and serve as tactically advantageous staging grounds amidst the peaks and vales, filled with snow and stone. The Jade Palace maintains light, mobile forces at these points which can quickly mobilize and reach any surrounding settlement in short order. Assailing these locations would be a challenge for any conventional military force due to the turbulent terrain and the lack of any kind of urban environment or modern roads.

<span class=""bb-b"">Simpler Anachronism:</span> Many of the settlements are relatively impoverished and primitive, but are entirely self-sustaining and contained. Most of the people are subsistence farmers, or else laborers. Life is hard, but not difficult.

<span class=""bb-b"">Wisdom of the Tertön:</span> The Jade Palace seems to have a sophisticated understanding of the relative distribution of resources throughout the Kunlun mountain range, and relays most of this information to the settlements through the lamasery monks. Each local settlement usually has access to some form or another of nearby regional resource that they would otherwise not be able to find.

<span class=""bb-b"">Guardians of Myth:</span> The forces of the Jade Palace are a fairly well-organized, well-equipped, and efficient military organization that seems to have its logistics reasonably well in hand, considering that they seem to have come out of nowhere in the aftermath of the Reaper plague and the Nuclear Apocalypse. In the eyes of the local populace, they are nearly mythical in stature and repute, soldiers of the next Great Ruler who will inspire a return to the grand civilizations of old.</div></div><div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Disadvantages"" type=""button"">Disadvantages [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Disparate:</span> The populations of the settlements are made up of people from all surrounding regions, all speaking different languages, not all of whom respect Buddhist teachings or living under the thumb of the Jade Palace. Violence is uncommon in the settlements, but that could change with just a little exterior pressure...

<span class=""bb-b"">New World, Old Ways:</span> Lacking any extensive industrial infrastructure or modern conveniences, the various settlements and lamaseries usually don't even have electricity or functional plumbing, let alone the ability to manufacture complex equipment. If they want to make something new, they have to do it using techniques that have not been seen since the dark ages. The Jade Palace forces seem unusually well-equipped, but even they can't make more bullets out of nothing...

<span class=""bb-b"">Blanket of the Mountains:</span> The mountain range is vast, and the Jade Palace forces are fewer in number than most would believe - they are spread thin even just by maintaining their scouting troupes.</div></div></div></div>

I don't think the actual ruling group is made of monks, if I recall correctly. And violence by Tibetan Buddhist isn't unheard of either. And as for vegetarianism, Theravada makes a distinction between directly killing an animal and eating already dead meat.

Additionally, none of the monks themselves are combatants or soldiers - they merely have a rapport with the forces of the Jade Palace. They have been explicitly asked to help maintain peace and order in the region by advising and watching over the settlements; when it comes to actual peace-keeping and law-enforcement, the Palace usually steps in.

As for the meat: I never indicated that they partook, but it's not a great secret that there are entire breeds of domesticated goats raised solely for the meat, everywhere in the world - and not everyone in the Kunlun mountains is a monk.

The monks had nothing to do with the Jade Palace until after they showed up out of nowhere.

To reiterate: The Jade Palace is occupying many of the lamaseries present in the Kunlun mountain range, but they are not monks. The Buddhists would not normally have any reason to affiliate with the Jade Palace (see my prior post) but are currently collaborating with them for the purposes of maintaining peace within the region. Despite this, they are not acting as militants, and are mostly serving management roles for the Kunlun settlements.

This is something of a contrast to how monks have responded to the efforts of governments to exploit their order in order to legitimize their own rule (Burma springs to mind), but this is, pointedly, the Apocalypse, and the Jade Palace's agenda seems to be genuine in their desire and efforts to protect the populace. The Kunlun mountain range is bordered by China, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan - the last three were not the most stable of regions even before the world ended. If it weren't for the Jade Palace forces scouting the borders, directing people to settlements, and performing nominal peace-keeping roles - widespread looting and violence would have torn the region apart.

The relationship isn't a perfect one, due in part to Jade Palace 'requisitions' and 'drafts' (forced quartering and kidnapping respectively), but they aren't torturing or murdering people, and they mostly keep to themselves and let everybody in the settlements live however they want without interfering - and they supply a lot of useful information to the settlements through the Tibetan order.

I'm not under the delusion that Buddhists would find this sort of arrangement acceptable under normal conditions, but for the moment it is an acceptable improvement to an extremely bad situation.

Plus the other stuff I haven't mentioned, since there are a few facets of their relationship/politics I'd like to reserve for the actual IC. :E</div>"

You said earlier the start of the RP was 2042?

Also, I agree with TSG that it is...unlikely that diplomats at the United Nations would do that, to say the least. :P

I wouldn't be surprised if that was a rumor that was floating around, but ultimately I think what happened was that one nation nuked an adjacent nation under the pretext of preventing the spread of the Reaper Plague - stop refugees from running into their nation and spreading it, which inevitably escalated into a total worldwide nuclear exchange.</div>"

When you've lost <span class=""bb-u"">90</span> percent of the world's total population within a very short time span to ICBMs, biological agents and a teeming demographic of bestial mutant lifeforms, you're looking at the immediate destruction and gradual degradation of entire ethnic groups, racial groups and religious groups of Earth.

This event makes the cumulative effects of every single natural disaster and war in human history look like petty child's play in comparison. With 770 million persons remaining in the world, humanity just got bumped back down to (roughly) 1750 population levels; infighting amongst human populations, mutant incursions and the very real possibility of pathogens springing up out of nowhere aren't doing the species any favors, either.

The notion of still having air support /is/ surprising. That requires a working airport, fuel, a source of fuel, a way to refine and filtrate it, a sophisticated housing and maintenance facility, more spare parts than you can fit in a garage and all that other jazz.

The way you make it sound is like this is somewhat common. This would have to be the biggest battle to have taken place since before the apocalypse. The Nuclear Winter didn't last 73 years, it actually lasted about a decade and that flucuated with nuclear summers which can enhance the growth of plants. Hence people survived. The Nuclear winter has been over for maybe 20 or so years. So please change up that post and realize that if you use planes and things that you will be using massive amounts of resources. Like desperate measures, you can continue like this or completely redo this. I suggest a more realistic battle, if the lake was frozen over, one side would just post up snipers and wait. Change it up and get back to me.</div>"

The fact is, old world tech is rare but if you are in a death struggle with another civilization you spend more resources on military equipment. His agriculture is bad, he exports weapons like almost everyone else and his people aren't used to fighting mutants so if any show up he'll take more heavy causalities.

He and his girlfriend Alexis had just moved into their first apartment together, and of course he was carrying all the large and heavy objects. After all, he didn't want Alexis to hurt herself, especially since he supported her becoming a model. He wanted her to look the best she could, though to him she always did.

The couple had been together since freshman year of high school. They went to the same college together and graduated together. While Alexis wanted to become a model, James actually joined the army towards the end of his final year. They promised he could finish college before anything else happened, and recently he had been contacted. He couldn't mention anything to anybody though, not even his girlfriend. With another sigh, he wiped his forehead and walked out on to the balcony, enjoying the fresh air of summer.

“Not a bad place for as cheap as we got it,” he called to Alexis. The apartment had two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one in the master bedroom. The kitchen had a small wall between it and the living room, with a window cut out like a little bar. The dining room was connected to the living room, and they had plenty of space to put a couch and TV. For a young couple getting their first place on their own, it was a pretty good choice.</div>"

Together for years since they met in high school, the two love birds finally found a place of their own. Finishing up college was tough but they made it through like they did everything in their lives. They pushed their way through tough times in high school and college but came out stronger than ever. 

Arriving in the house, she blew some of the blonde hair from her face and placed the last box onto the kitchen table and found her love in the living room. Wrapping her arms gently around his waist, she rested her head against his back. She had finished up college with a bachelor’s degree in business management but her dream had always been to become a model. James was always supportive of it with the single stipulation that she wouldn’t do a lingerie photo shoot. This was something she wasn’t shy about agreeing with those terms. Promising as long as they were together she wouldn’t do lingerie modeling. She didn’t like the idea of him joining the military but he promised that he would keep in touch if/when they took him from her and that was enough for her.

“It’s perfect, it has you in it.” She said softly against his back, her hand resting gently against his chest. A smile spread across her face as she placed her cheek softly against his back hearing his breathing and heartbeat. That was the most peaceful thing to her. “Do we have to start unpacking to night? Can we just order pizza and be lazy for the rest of the night?”</div>"

Order pizza and be lazy, just like they always were. The two of them got along so well. They shared many similar interests and had a very similar way of thinking. That's why they were perfect for each other. Going through high school and college everyone thought they'd be the only couple to last all those years, and they did it. <br/><br/>""Alright you win, we can order pizza. I'll at least set up the TV so we can watch a movie while we eat,"" James said and turned around, kissing Alexis softly. Then he took out his phone and called a small pizza place in town. He knew her favorite, especially since they always got the same thing no matter where they ordered from. After placing the order and he was told it would arrive in about twenty minutes, he went over to set up their TV stand. Luckily they had already gotten their couch into the apartment.</div>"

The set of cards was worn and had seen better days, but it some how wasn't missing any cards. After Sam found the deck Janet took it upon herself to teach her younger sister how to play poker, and it seemed that would back fire on Janet because Sam seemed to be too skilled in the fine art of bluffing. 

""Well, Jan are you going to fold or not? I'm pretty sure that would be a good idea in this case sis."" Sam's face was unreadable as she spoke each word empty of feeling or anything else that Janet can use to see past Sam's poker face. 

""Oh no, you're not getting me this time. Show em."" Janet flipped over her cards with a two of a kind of jacks. Sam smirked showing her hand which was a three of a kind of 8's which means that Janet just lost what was left of her ""money."" 

""Well, looking like I win this time."" Sam cooed smirking. 

""Yea yea."" Janet got up and looked around seeing that some of the others had been watching them play. ""Great, people saw me lose.""</div>"

She had little interest in it, but still enjoyed the fact that the people in the prison seemed to get along well. She was still pretty new around here, but already the prison seemed more fair than Woodbury had been. Everyone had a definite place and was absolutely essential to the survival of everyone else.

She sat on a crate, polishing her single brass knuckle. She wanted to go on the next run, but she knew it was unlikely. Rick had been holding her back to help Beth and Carol take care of the kids. She wasn't thrilled about the job, but if it's what earned Rick's trust, she'd do it. She wanted him to trust her enough to let her out of his sight.

She'd been around for a while now, but she didn't quite fit in. Everyone else had already proven themselves. She was eager to do the same. She would kill a million walkers. Hell, she'd kill the <span class=""bb-i"">Governor</span> if she had to. She just wanted to be one of them.</div>"

He nodded at her as she passed, and she nodded back; Daryl then went back to his task of checking over his crossbow bolts for any damages. He didn't much care for the out come of the game, but watching the sisters play was a nice way to pass the time. Janet, and Daryl had a close bound that wasn't sexual in anyway. They both knew that if shit had hit the fan they would have each others back, that much was proven when they spend the winter after the farm in the wild.

Sam just watched as Janet left and laughed some. ""That's what she gets for making me learn poker."" Sam laughed picking up all of the cards and shuffling the cards together then pulled out her gun to start cleaning it.

Janet made her way to her cell and crawled into bed. She knew that soon she was going to go on a run with Rick, and Sam for some supplies so she wanted to rest a bit.</div>"

He made his way to Lara. He nodded at her, eying her carefully.

""You want in on the next run?"" He asked. She wasn't totally convinced that it was because he trusted her.

""Hell yeah."" She grinned anyways.

""Gear up in an hour."" He said over his shoulder as he walked away. Lara nodded even though she knew he couldn't see her.

Her heart did little flips inside her chest. She was going on a run! This was exciting. It was her chance to prove herself. Her chance to earn a place among the people here. She promised them silently that she wouldn't fail them.</div>"

Maggie was watching Sam for a bit then walked over the Rick to talk to him for a moment.

""Are you sure you want to trust Lara? I know you'll have Sam and Janet with you, and I trust your judgment Rick but she did come from Woodberry. I guess what I'm saying is be careful for me."" Maggie really wasn't sure about Lara, but was willing to give her a chance. Michonne turned out ok, but she still was feeling uneasy from her capture in Woodberry.

Janet sighed and watched Rick and Maggie talk, but was unable to hear what they were saying. She was happy to see the Rick had started to regain his sanity after Lori died she then rolled on to her side.</div>"

Rick looked Maggie in the eye. The look he gave her was an intense one. ""This will prove her loyalties. I'm taking them past Woodbury to see what her reaction will be.""

Lara could see Maggie and Rick giving her looks. She immediately knew they were talking about her. She knew Maggie hated her. She didn't know why. It's not like it was her fault or her doing that she and Glenn had been captured by the Governor. If anything, she felt she should have earned some trust by willingly leaving the place and laying herself out before Rick and his group. She guessed that that just wasn't how the group ran.</div>"

Daryl looked up from his work to Sara unsure of what she was about. He was a bit more willing to trust her then Rick was but it was in Rick's hands. He just did what he could do for the group to survive on a daily bases. After he checked his bolts he grabbed his pack and crossbow. ""I'm heading out for my hunt Sam, if anyone asks for me tell em' I'm busy.""

Sam looked up and nodded quickly. ""Sure thing Daryl. Bring back a buck."" she smiled and went back to her work as Daryle just grunted to acknowledge he hear her then headed out his cross bow over his shoulders.</div>"

Lara had gone to her cell shortly after Rick had told her he would include her on the next run. She packed her things so that they would be conveniently easy to reach should she need to use them. She tied some cloth around her forearms to protect against bites. She wore a thick hoodie for the same reason. She knew it would be hot as hell, but she would rather be hot then bit.</div>"

Know I'll always have your back no matter what, and when shit hits the fan I'll be there guns blazing."" Janet smirked  getting off the bed and leaning on a wall. ""Besides, you can't have all the fun now can you."" 

Sam was almost done cleaning her gun when Michonne walked in and over to Lara and took a seat next to her. Sam looked up at her for a moment then back down to her work. Machonne was starting to grow on her for sure, and after she helped save Maggie and Glenn she was starting to become ok in her book, but she didn't like how Michonne would keep to herself, and not give much information on who she was. Sam figured she had her reasons, but it didn't make her feel easy. 

""How are you holding up Lara?"" she kept her voice down some for really no reason but to have some feeling of privacy.</div>"

It seemed to be doing better thanks to Hershel, but there was still some pain left over that she could work past. She found her self more concerned over Lara.

""I just hope Rick knows what he's gotten himself into with the Governor. Keeping heads in a tank, and his walker daughter?"" Michonne didn't want to think about the tanks or Penny, and a man like that needs to be put down.

Janet smiled as Rick walked away and turned back to her cell to pack up her gear. She grabbed what little ammo she was allotted carefully putting it in her jacket pocket for later, and holstered her gun to her hip. She bent over her pack that was on the floor by the bed and looked for her hatchet and couldn't find it.

""Where the hell could it have gone?"" She looked under the bed and found it waiting for her. It must of fallen out at some point.

When it was in her hands she looked it over and sighed seeing her fathers name on the blade. She tired keep the guilt at bay but it was welling up in her gut as she thought about her father's death. If only she had kept a better watch he would still be there with her. She snapped herself back to the moment and hooked the hatchet to her paints.

She grabbed Sam's pack along with hers and Sam's scooped rifle, and walked back over to Sam who was wrapping up with her side arm.

""Here, I brought your gear with me so you don't have to go back to the cell.""

He trusted that that was all he would need.

Lara saw the group huddling in the middle of the cell block. She looked at Michonne. ""The Governor and his goonies are a bunch of assholes and can go to hell.""

The last time she left was to save Glenn and Maggie, and she did not enjoy that at all.

Sam looked to Rick waiting to hear his response to Janet's question. She too was curious if there was anything they needed besides the basics. After all, this was a larger then normal group for a run so Rick might of had something in mind.

Lara grinned as Rick suggested she go with him. This was her moment. She was so ready for this and she'd prove it. She was a member of the prison just like everyone else. She wanted him to know that.

She wasn't like Sam is with new people and how she just keeps them away; Janet liked to engage with them so they didn't feel like they had no place in the group.

""We better look for anything we can use for Judith as well. She's not going to stay small forever after all, and she'll need clothes for when that happens."" Janet looked at Rick waiting for him to make the move to the vehicles.

Sam and Daryl started to head outside together not really saying much, if anything. They both had a mission they needed to get done, and nether was much for small talk. ""Do you want to drive or should I?"" Sam didn't really care about the answer but felt like she needed to ask anyway.

""Nah, I got it. It's better if you keep your eyes open for any trouble on the road, I can handle drivin'."" Daryl has a point, after all, Sam was a good shot from a distance, and had eyes like a hawk. If there was any danger it would be best if she didn't have to focus on the road.

Beth was sitting not far from Carol and nodded. ""Yea, Judith needs to eat to grow up to be big and strong after all. Isn't that right Judith?"" Beth got up and knelt down to the baby's level and tickled her belly softly. ""Yea, you're going to get so big you'll be able to pick up your daddy.""</div>"

She smiled at her, grateful for her kindness. It was something few people had these days. 

Rick gave the okay to move out. He came to stand with Lara and Jan. He nodded once at each of them to make sure they were ready. Lara nodded back excitedly. She seemed so eager to get out and it honestly worried him a little bit. Not so much because he didn't trust her, but more because she was small and potentially vulnerable. He didn't want any bite accidents. He couldn't afford another lost member.

He nodded again to signal that he too was ready and headed to one of the cars. He watched as Daryl and Sam got into the cab of a pickup truck as he slid into the driver's seat of a small sedan. He figured Jan would likely take shotgun and, by default, Lara would take the back. It was just a pecking order thing.

Lara waited for Rick and Janet to take their seats before hoping into the back seat. She held her gun in her lap for easy reach in the case of an attack. She knew the Governor could be out there with his pals and she was more afraid of him than a few biters. The car would likely protect them from the undead, but definitely not The Governor.

Carol grinned and nodded at Beth. ""She will. Though, I hope she's still as sweet as the Judith we know today. I'd hate to see this world change her."" She planted a kiss on Judith's head. The baby hiccuped and then giggled, kicking her feet.</div>"

""Let's hope we don't have any bullshit to deal with like a group of walkers or the Governor."" Janet shifted in her set some at the idea of running into the Governor. He repulsed her after she hear what happened to Maggie. She was going to go on that run as well, but had to stay back. If she had gone then maybe they would of been ok. Maybe.

Janet was deep in thought not really paying much attention to what was around her. She was thinking about her life before this mess hit and how she missed her job and her co-workers. Sadly, that life was as dead as the walkers. The only person she had left from that life was Sam, and she wasn't about to let her go.

Sam and Daryl drove to the fence and stopped waiting for Rick's car. Carl, and Maggie where by the gate waiting to open it for them so they could go.</div>"

He leaned out of the window when he saw Carl. ""Keep an extra close eye on things. I'm still not entirely comfortable leaving the prison with that asshole running around."" He referenced the Governor with an expression of held back distaste. He knew Carl would understand. 

Lara watched the interaction. The relationship Carl and Rick had was special. A sort of father-son relationship that entailed more than that. More like two <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> close friends with a clear leader. It was something she rather envied. She had so few friends now that the world was a big ball of dead things. She didn't know if she really even <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> any.

There was Michonne, which, though they weren't tight, <span class=""bb-i"">did</span> share a common past. They'd spent time in Woodbury, left it and came to the prison. That was about the extent of it. Lara had chosen to follow Michonne out, but before that, she'd never talked to the woman.

There was also Hershel. She wouldn't really call him a friend. He was just nice to everyone. Something to do with religion, she supposed. Ya'know, treat others as you would want to be treated. She found that he was easy to talk to, though. He always listened and only gave advice when you asked for it. 

Janet had also been nice to her since she had arrived. She wouldn't really call her a friend either as they'd only had a small handful of conversations since the day she'd walked in. Janet was nice, but sometimes seemed a little distant.</div>"

""Think they'll be ok with Lara?"" Maggie turned to Carl.

""Yea, I think so. Besides, he's not going alone."" Carl turned to head back to the prison with Maggie.

Janet snapped herself out of her train of thought when Rick talked to Carl. ""We need to take care of the Governor as soon as possible. That kind of man isn't just going to leave us be, that much he's made clear. Sam and I could sneak into Woodberry and kill him that way. Sam is a good shot after all. Then we'd be done with it."" Janet didn't like knowing that she was being watched by that asshole, but she knew better then to go off on her own without Rick knowing.

The Governor was watching the prison from the woods when he saw two cars leave. ""Follow them. I want to know where they go, and when they stop."" He was cold with his words and turned to Martinez.

""If you see Michonne grab her. If not grab anyone else. This time we won't screw this up.""</div>"

What was he going to do once he nabbed someone? Make a trade for Michonne? She had to keep from snorting. It wasn't going to happen. She knew Rick would never fall for that. After all, he hadn't bartered for Glenn and Maggie. He just blew a hole in the place and <span class=""bb-i"">took</span> them back. She shot a glance at Merle Dixon's back. He followed Martinez. She hated that man.

Rick finished rolling the window up, keeping a careful eye on the road and all around it. He didn't want any nasty surprises, dead or alive. ""We'll take care of him eventually. Right now, I think we should gather our strength. The man has buddies. Taking out the head won't necessarily take out the entire body.""

Lara agreed with Rick. The Governor had a pretty loyal team of soldiers and, let's face it, <span class=""bb-i"">fangirls.</span> It wasn't likely just killing him would solve much. It wouldn't be long before someone organized a group big enough to mow over Rick's in a matter of seconds.</div>"

He's just going to come in and shove his fist up our asses. Besides, killing him will give us a chance to finish it off."" Janet was tired of seeing this man torment her family and killing him was a good place to start.

""If you can grab one of the sisters instead go for it, even better if it's the older one. I have some words for her."" The Governor didn't forget how Janet had grazed him with a bullet when they raided Woodberry, and he was going to make sure she paid for it.

""I'll deal with the captive this time.""</div>"

She couldn't really totally hide the horror in her expression. She knew what it meant that the Governor wanted to deal with the captive himself. If that girl walked out alive, she would be just barely.

Merle saw Andrea's expression changed out of the corner of his eye. He looked at her to see what it was, but she had changed it before he could determine. ""Sure thing. Don'tchya worry. We'll get your girl."" He gave the Governor a sinister lopsided smile.

Martinez nodded in agreement with Merle. One girl. Piece o' cake. Grab her and go. Maybe put some bullets in a few of the others on his way out. It would be fun. He mirrored Merle's smile

""I won't argue with you on this, Jan."" Rick's voice was steady. He knew the Governor was also preparing, but more than that, he knew that his own people weren't ready for that kind of move. Too many people were still injured from the raid. 

Lara watched the scene unfold. Rick's tone kind of freaked her out. He was at a level of seriousness that was usually reserved for young children. <span class=""bb-i"">Don't touch that. I mean it.</span> Only, instead of a toy, it was the Governor and instead of a young child, it was Janet.

The Governor noticed the look on Andrea's face, and then turned to her after he was done talking.

""Is there a problem you wish to discus with me?"" He was curt with her, and growing a little tired of her butting in.

""Fine, whatever Rick. Just don't expect me to hold back the I told you so when it comes. I'm trusting you with my sister's life after all. Before we would of never joined a group and did just fine in the woods alone so remember that."" Janet didn't mean to sound so snappy when she spoke to Rick, but she also didn't like what happened to Maggie. Over the winter Maggie became like a sister to Janet and she was more then willing to take the Governor's head off for touching her.

""Look, I know what you're saying and I do still have faith in you. I'm just not happy about what happened with Glenn and Maggie. What if it was Sam and me who went on the run like it was supposed to be? God... I can't think about it. If he touched her.."" Janet trailed off hiding her head in her hands.</div>"

He was more than upset about what happened to Glenn and Maggie, but he wasn't going to let it color his decisions with irrationality and poor choices. 

""I know, Jan. Just relax. Nobody's going anywhere, long as I've got a say in it."" He turned onto the street Daryl and Sam had taken. He followed them at a distance now, trying to avoid obstructing their view without totally leaving it. ""We'll fix this and I ain't about to leave. The Governor will get what he's got comin' to him when the time's right.""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara wasn't sure what to make of the situation in the front of the car. They both had very valid points and she didn't know who's to defend. She just remained quiet instead.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea quizzically looked at the Governor. She hadn't said a word this whole time. She'd just stood by, keeping her eyes peeled for walkers and patrollers. He and the other two had not exactly been quiet about their planning. Particularly Merle. 

She glanced between the Governor and Merle. They were both watching her expectantly. Martinez was leaning against a tree, using a pocket knife to clean the dirt out from under his fingernails. He was most likely listening in as well

""I'm sorry. I didn't say anything."" Her quizzical look turned into one of offense. She honestly felt hurt that he didn't trust her. The man she lived with. Slept with. <span class=""bb-i"">Made love to.</span> And he still didn't trust her? Granted, she <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> planning on slitting his throat the next chance she got. <span class=""bb-i"">Just stab him in his sleep.

<font color=""#92278f"">Carl and Maggie returned from gate duty. That meant she and Tyreese were on. She handed Judith to Beth and stood up. She smiled at the younger woman. ""I'll see ya later. Gate duty."" She turned and left, ignoring Judith's cries as she went.</font>
<font color=""#f26522"">Tyreese met up with Carol in the center of the cell block. He nodded at her as she made her way down the stairs. ""Ready to kill some walkers?"" Carol nodded. She looked slightly distracted and he couldn't put a finger on why.</font>

""There, that looks safe. Right in front of the yellow house should be good Daryl."" Sam picked up her rifle and looked thru the scoop just to make sure there wasn't any surprises waiting for them.

""Yea, just a few walkers, nothing we can't handle without our guns. I'll flag down Rick, and the others so they'll know."" Sam turned around and looked thru the back window waving her arms letting Rick know that they found a safe spot to park.</font>
<font color=""seagreen"">Daryl nodded and turned the truck into the street pulling up in front of the yellow house. ""You're eyes are as good as ever Sam. Let's wait for Rick and the others before we start clearing the street.""</font>
<font color=""aqua"">""I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't be snapping at you Rick. You got them out, and you got us this far. Anyway, when he has whats coming to him, I'll be there with you to take him out. You know you can count on that. Hell, I'll have your back after that point."" Janet turned to face Rick as she was talking and smiled weakly.

She saw Sam waving them down. ""Looks like Sam found a spot. We better check it out. I don't think we've hit this spot yet.""

He was right and she knew it. She always was quick to react, and it got her in hot water before. She sat back in her seat and grabbed her hatchet having it ready if anything happened. She didn't feel like messing around with walkers today so it was best if they cleared out the streets before going in to look for supplies.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""You had a look on your face. You seemed upset over something. If it's about grabbing one of the girls I have my reasons. They did blast a hole in our defenses after all.""

He got out of the car, silenced gun in hand, poised, ready to shoot at anything suspicious. He found nothing but a few walkers. He nodded at Daryl, signifying a good arrow to the head would be enough to hold them back for a long time.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea, thought quickly for a cover. ""I heard something, but it was only a squirrel."" She said it straight-faced, knowing it had the potential to be enough to convince just about anyone that she meant it.</font>

Merle eyed Andrea for a few second more before turning back to Martinez. ""Let's get outta here before somethin' happens."" He muttered, motioning for the younger man to follow.

<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez nodded at Merle, totally understanding where he was coming from. When the Governor smelled something fishy, he never let it go. He would be forever suspicious. Even if the person he mistrusted was his lover.</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">Carol walked beside Tyreese, a tire iron casually resting on her shoulder. There was a moment of silence before she spoke up. ""What do you think Rick has planned for Woodbury? Surely he can't just ignore it anymore.""

Tyreese looked at her with an I'm-not-really-surw-what-to-think kind of smile and a shrug. ""Not a clue. I think he'll do what's best though. He's done a lot of great things, even before Sasha and I arrived. I think we'll be just fine.""

""I hope you're right.""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Tyreese was a little concerned about the tone Carol was using. It sounded like she almost didn't trust Rick.

That should be good enough for now. It took the walkers a while to gather enough to be a real threat. Unless, of course a herd came by.

Merle followed closely behind Martinez and the Governor. He always took the rear. This was mostly because he was the best of the three of them when it came down to detecting pursuers. His years of hunting had taught him the difference between something moving and something following.

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea had been left by herself to watch the prison. She wasn't really sure why. She was rather irritated about it too. No word from the Governor. He just up and left with Merle and Martinez. Sometimes he really pissed her off. Killing him was sounding more and more like a good idea as the days went by.</font>

He smirked when Merle chuckled. He knew the man agreed to some extent. ""Sure. Let the <span class=""bb-i"">doctor</span> keep an eye on her. That'll do us real good."" He chuckled again.

Merle made a <span class=""bb-i"">psssssssht</span> sound, honestly surprised the Governor was considering trusting Milton with such an... <span class=""bb-i"">interesting</span> job. It was certainly going to fail. Milton was easily manipulated. Sure, that could work in the Governor's favor, but it could just as easily work in Andrea's. She could inflict some serious damage if she needed to, not that she always preferred violence. If he knew her well enough, she'd probably sweet talk him into giving her information and possibly convince him to turn on the Governor himself.

Merle wasn't totally onboard with the Governor either. The man was a basket case. But there were certain things he got out of following him that Merle didn't want to give up. Things like hot water, clean clothes and a bed were obvious. But there was also the respect from the citizens of Woodbury and the trust he'd spent months building. All things he would definitely give up if he left for Rick's teeny little prison home. It was definitely not worth it.

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea paced for a few minutes. What was she supposed to do? She was sure that anything she reported to the Governor that she might possibly see at the prison would just be sloughed off like it was useless. She couldn't follow Governor and his men. They were long gone. She couldn't just go to the prison and join them as she'd brought on the personal quest to kill the Governor. She decided to just head back to Woodbury.</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">Tyreese hummed quietly in the background. It was his way of ""staying sane"" when he was on gate duty. Carol paced back and forth along the grate, stabbing a walker now and then with her tire iron. She peered out into the forest and thought she saw something move. It looked like a human form. A walker? No. It moved to smoothly and quickly to be a walker. 

She motioned for Tyreese to be quiet for a moment. She listened for any sounds that would give away what or who she had seen. Just in that moment, a walker came up to the fence, reaching it's fingers through grate at Tyreese. It let out a hungry growl that was cut short by a sharpened cane through the forehead.

Carol had looked up in surprise. She turned her attention back to the spot in the forest but could see nothing.</font>
<font color=""#f26522"">Tyreese had no idea what Carol was doing, but whatever it was, she looked concerned. He figured she saw something fishy, but he could see nothing. Just trees, bushes and dead people. Not exactly the most pleasant sight, though a very common one now a days.</font></div>"

When she walked in she was greeted with the smell of death and soon found the source. There was the body of a woman in the living room that looked like it had been chewed on. She didn't want to look for too much longer and turned to the cabinets that was a few feet away from her. 

Inside the cabinets she found papers and some odds and ends but nothing they could use. ""No luck here unless we need to send some letters."" Janet sighed then turned to the table that was next to the cabinet. Score. There were some ace bandages they could use but not much else. ""Well, I found some wraps we can use."" She showed them to Rick before putting them away in her pack.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam and Daryl moved to the living room, but there was nothing there they could use. ""I'll check this room over here."" She walked in and saw that it was a baby's room. It looked like it hasn't been touched in months so their was a good chance they could find something for Judith. She looked in the dresser and found some clothes so she took them with her and a baby bottle that was on top.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">Daryl took the next room, it was the master bedroom. After checking all the furniture there was nothing of use. He met with Sam in the other room. ""Nothin' in the other room. Seems you found somethin' for ass kicker thou.""</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor turned to Merle. ""Do you have a better idea Merle that I should know about? I could have you watch her."" He turned away when they got to Rick's cars. ""Park a few blocks away.""</font></div>"

They were better than nothing and certainly worth the trip. Every little thing they found would be worth it.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara went opposite of Janet and Rick, making her way into the living room. She intended to pass through and go into the hallway, but was stopped when the dead woman on the floor began writhing. It surprised her and she readied herself to attack. The walker just lay on the floor, her neck and head moving as she snapped at Lara's feet. It was kind of pitiful really. She felt like she was doing the dead woman a service stabbing through her head with a detached chair leg.</font>
<font color=""#f26522"">Tyreese looked back at Carol. ""D'ya see somethin'?"" He whispered. Carol held a finger up for a moment to silence him. After a few seconds, she stood up straight and brought the gun she'd picked up back to her side.

""I think we're being watched. You stay here, I'll go warn the able."" She handed Tyreese the gun and walked away.</font>
<font color=""#00aeef"">Glenn Rhee sat alone in the watch tower. He leaned on the bars and stared into the trees through the scope of his gun. He'd been so focused on the task that he hadn't noticed Carol come up behind him.

""See anything?"" She said, leaning next to him and looking at him. He jumped back, aiming at her for a second before seeing who it really was. 

""No. Just trees and walkers."" Glenn sighed resuming his previous position. ""Why? Have you?""</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">Carol wasn't surprised that Glenn hadn't seen anything. There was only so much you could see through a scope. ""Thought I saw somebody at the edge of the forest.

""You sure it wasn't just a walker?"" Glenn turned slowly. ""It can be difficult to keep them straight sometimes.""

""No. Too fast."" Carol looked out at the trees.

""So you think we're being watched."" Glenn stated more than asked.

""Wouldn't surprise me. We <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> have enemies after all."" She gave him a half smile as if the meaning of her words was equivalent to telling her neighbor her dog just peed on the carpet. She shrugged. <span class=""bb-i"">What are you gonna do? These things happen.</span></font></div>"

Janet passed Lara and slowly opened a bedroom door, but there wasn't a walker waiting for her. She walked in and looked around. There was a bloody bed, a dresser and a footlocker so it could be promising. She started with the footlocker and found some clothes, but nothing of use to them. Sighing she closed the footlocker and turned to the dresser.

""Maybe I'll have some better luck with the dresser."" She opened it and smiled some seeing a porn magazine in the first drawer, and in the next drawer there was nothing. She moved out of the room and joined Lara.

""Any luck finding supplies?""</font></div>"

<font color=""#39b54a"">Rick held out his find. A pair of worn boots that would likely fit Carl. ""Just these. I'd say we're about done here. Let's move on."" 

He looked at the dead walker on the floor. It was absolutely pitiful. Her limbs had been chewed off by other walkers. The only thing she might have been able to move was her head. He was sure she had, too. It looked like one of the girls had stabbed her through the head as the blood was as fresh as walker blood can be.</font></div>"

Janet sighed and stretched her back feeling it get a bit tight. She felt a bit down about the turn out for this house, but sadly that was pretty normal as of late for them. Maybe their luck will get better int he next house.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor slowly walked to Rick's car and looked inside. ""It's clear."" He had his gun at the ready just in case. He couldn't see ether Rick or anyone else yet, but her knew they were around that area. ""Look for them but don't be seen. Understand?"" He hissed that last word.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam and Daryl had finished clearing their first house. They found some clothes, food and a bottle but that was about it. ""Next house?"" She took one last look around just to be sure they didn't miss anything they could use. ""Well, we didn't do too bad."" She smiled thinking about what all they found.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">""Yea, lets move on to another house. This wasn't a bad start that's for damn sure. Maybe we can cut thru the back yard to the next house."" He looked out the window, but sadly the fence was too high for them to craw over. ""Hmm damn too high. Let's head out then."" Him and Sam headed out to the street not seeing the Governor or his men.</font></div>"

Jan always knew just how to get to him. How to put a smile on his face. Even after Lori passed away, Jan had been there to make him feel better. She was good like that and definitely an priceless friend. He would do a lot for her. Just about anything. He would do many things (like kill people who threatened) for his people, but Jan had a special place in his heart.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara watched the interaction from a distance. Rick and Janet seemed to be tight. She vaguely wondered what had happened that made two totally different people rely on each other the way these two did. 

It was honestly very nice to see Rick smile. He didn't do it very often. The whole thing was pleasant. Two people making it in a world gone to shit. Two people able to see the good in the worst of circumstances. She envied that.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea walked through the gate that some Woodbury members held open for her. She was back. She had a plan. Tonight would be the night she made her move. Of course, she'd have to flee right away. She headed for her little apartment and began packing a bag. She shoved a knife into her boot. She would do it this time.</font>

""Sure thing, Gov."" Merle said in a low voice before heading out to find cover in the trees. He knew that if they spread out, it would be harder to spot them as well as determine how many targets there were. Also, should the girl break free from the Governor and Martinez, he was waiting for her in the only place she could turn to run.

He saw The girl and Daryl exit a house. He brought his gun down for a moment. Daryl. He missed his brother, but there was no convincing the man. He was glued to Rick like a little girl to her favorite stuffed animal. It was sad, really. Daryl loved and trusted Rick more than his own brother. 

He brought the gun back up, ready to shoot if he needed to. Even if it meant he had to shoot his own flesh and blood.

<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez waited behind the car with the Governor. Merle had taken a different route to cover more area in the event that one of Rick's people saw them. He nodded at the Governor's orders.</font></div>"

<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam blinked hearing a noise and turned to see Daryl was out. ""Oh god, what happened?"" she turn to the unconscious Daryl kneeling down her weapons at the ready in case something happened. ""Shit, I can't just leave him here like this."" She was kneeling over him checking for wounds when she saw a bump on his head. She knew at that moment what was happening. ""Dammit.""</font>
<font color=""#00ffff"">Janet smiled more meeting his gaze for a bit then broke it just as quickly. ""Alright? Where to next Rick?"" Janet had always been supportive of Rick since they met. When she ran across them after they lost the farm she could tell he was a good man that would do anything to protect his group, even if he had to protect them from their own bullshit. The Ricktatorship is what she thought of it as, but it wasn't meant to be anything negative. He got them past that winter and into the prison. Anyone willing to do that for the good of the whole was all right by her. She also knew that Sam felt the same way, but Janet felt a bit different about it and she couldn't put her finger on what it was.</font></div>"

Once outside, he was greeted with an unpleasantly surprising scene. Daryl was sprawled out on the ground, clearly unconscious. Sam was nowhere to be seen. His heart started pounding with worry. ""Sam?!"" He started walking towards Daryl, shouting the girl's name. ""Sam!""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara followed Rick and Janet out. When she heard Rick shouting, she began running. She went from car to car, stabbing a walker with a knife, and stopped her search in the house that Daryl and Sam started in. She couldn't find her anywhere. 

This was bad. She knew someone was bound to blame her. Claim that Sam disappeared right when she showed up.</font></div>"

""SAM!"" she yelled not caring if anyone hear her; her sister was more important at that time. She ran to catch up with Rick and gasped seeing Daryl passed out. Next to him was Sam's pack, and weapons as well as some fresh blood that formed a trail that clearly wasn't Daryl.

""No.... no no no nononononono."" Janet felt her knees give way as the truth hit her like a ton of bricks and she fell to the ground. ""Someone took Sam......"" She couldn't handle the idea that Sam was in danger and that she had no idea where to start to save her. Without thinking she stood up, and bolted following the blood trail not caring about her welling being. Her gun drawn, hot tears running down her cheek as she sprinted. The trail stopped in the middle of another road a few blocks away. She had been dragged into a car and taken away and at that moment Janet started balling.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam was thrown into the back of the Governor's car with her hands and legs bound. Her head had a hung gash on it from when she fought Martinez trying to get free, but was hit over the head by the Governor. She was out cold.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""Good work Martinez, thou she fought more then I expected her to. Make sure Dr. Stevens gets a look at you when we get back."" The Governor was please at who they got. While it wasn't Janet or Michonne he could still hurt Janet with her sister. Maybe even get her to trade places with her. ""You know what to do Merle.""</font></div>"

Rick ran after her. ""Janet no! She's gone!"" He shouted but he knew she probably couldn't hear him. He sped up, hoping that he might catch up with her.

After a few minutes of running, he found Jan bawling in the middle of a clearing. Fresh tire tracks suggested that Sam had been taken by someone with a car. He was pretty sure he knew who it had been.

He came to stand in front of Jan. He took hold of her shoulders and tried to look at her face, but he couldn't. Instead, he just pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her. He was trying to comfort her and maybe even himself as tears threatened to push their way out. 

Sam may not have been his sister, but he still cared for her as if she was. It also killed him to see Jan, usually strong and brave, crying. 

""We'll find her. I swear to God, we'll find her. I know we will.""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara decided it would be best for her to stay behind and tend to Daryl. She positioned herself so that the sun would stay out of his face. She pushed some grimy hair away from his forehead before checking his neck for a pulse.

Though his state of unconsciousness was not something to take lightly, she couldn't help smiling just the tiniest bit. He looked so peaceful. Intense, badass Daryl looked relaxed. 

She pulled his head into her lap and then tore a piece of cloth off of her shirt. She poured some of the water she found onto it and placed it on his forehead to help keep him cool.</font>
<font color=""#92278f"">Carol patted Glenn's shoulder. ""Well, keep an extra eye open."" She joked. ""Maybe we should get you a second scope for the other eye.

She nodded her head when he said they would find her, and at that point she was ready to tear into someone for hurting Sam. She pulled herself into Rick's chest more starting to calm down mainly because her was there with her.

She looked up at Rick her face red from crying but her eyes still deep blue and unaffected, and she saw that he was crying as well. She didn't fully know what to do so she did the first thing that popped into her head. She wiped away the tears from his face and softly held him back.

""I know we'll get her back. We have to.""</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">Daryl groaned and gasped waking up slowly. ""Oh shit. What happened Sam."" He slowly looked around holding his head and blinked not seeing Sam. ""Lara, oww god, what happened?"" He didn't like what he saw so far since Sam, Janet, and Rick were gone.</font></div>"

Merle sat in the front with the Governor. He was irritates and had nothing to say. The Governor and Martinez seemed happy and proud, but Merle wasn't feeling it. He kept thinking of Daryl. His baby brother laying there, completely unconscious. The smug grins on the faces of the other two men. It pissed him off.</div>"

""Ahh anyway, um we should go check on Lara and Daryl. I'm slightly worried about him."" She tried to move past her last comment, and hoped that Rick didn't notice she was flirting. While she knew that was not likely she still had a hope.</font>

There was the possibility of Andrea leaving an warning Rick. There was the possibility that Rick already guessed the kidnapping was the Governor's doing and he'd bring his men. So many things that could upset the Governor's plan.

Merle remained quiet for the rest of the ride back to Woodbury. He wanted the girl to shut up, but he knew that if he said something, she would likely retaliate. He could tell Martinez and the Governor were already tired of her and didn't foresee a good ending for her side.

They car pulled up to the gates and the were pulled open by people on the other side. Once inside the walls, Merle got out and dragged Sam with him. He forced her to walk with him. He was taking her to the ""dungeon."" Governor's orders. No denying those.

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea saw the Governor's car pull in. <span class=""bb-i"">It's show time.</span> She thought. She continued watching as Merle dragged a girl out of the back seat and took her away. That was one of Rick's newer members. She wasn't familiar with her, but knew Rick and the group would be back for her. It was only a matter of time before the Governor's plan fell apart and he was brought down.</font></div>"

""I.. can't lose Sam, not after I cost us our father. I also can't lose anyone else."" She really didn't want him to go with her, but again, Rick wasn't going to let that happen.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">Daryl looked up and took the hand she was offering and pulled himself up. ""If they find her I'm going to help get her back. Also, thank you Lara."" Daryl meant what he said. The group was his family and he had to protect his family from harm. ""Rick and Janet should be back. We should go look for them.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam figured that it was best if she shut up, but she wasn't going to stop fighting. If she could just get free for a moment she could bolt but that wasn't going to happen it seemed.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor smiled seeing Andrea. ""I just wanted to apologize for how I acted earlier. I didn't need to be so cold and harsh."" He was lying threw his teeth, but he also knew that Andrea could be an issue if he didn't address it.</font></div>"

I'm not letting you go by yourself. You're practically signing a death warrant. I'm going with you."" He let his voice get a little bit stern to show how serious he was. He waited a moment before adding the last part. ""If you or Sam die, I will never forgive myself for letting you go alone. I blame myself for the death of every member since the beginning of this mess and I don't want to add to that list. So please."" He was begging in a way. Begging in a commanding way.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara gave Daryl a smile. She knew at least one thing about Daryl and it was that he always meant what he said. He didn't say much, but when he did, it was always the truth. She admired that, even though it could sometimes be hurtful or irritating. ""I think we should wait here for them. Besides, I don't really think you're really in any condition to chase <span class=""bb-i"">anyone</span> down right now. Come sit in the truck with me."" She tugged on his sleeve a little, trying to lead him to the pickup.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea gave the Governor an indifferent look. She was going to draw this out. Maybe she could make him feel bad. Maybe then he'd buy her story and it would be a piece of cake to cut his throat open. She sat in the chair behind her and watched him with a waiting expression.</font>

Merle led the girl into the chambers. The darkest part of Woodbury. All kinds of weird shit happened in this room and he knew it was no place for anyone. He led her to a chair in the center of the room and forced her to sit. He strapped her in and then gave her a smile. It was his typical you're-screwed smile, but there was a hint of, not-totally-screwed in it. 

He walked away, twirling a knife in between his fingers. He closed the door behind him as he left. His semi evil smile melted into one that said he felt good about something. He had inspected that particular chair before putting Sam into it. The straps were rather worn. It wasn't obvious, but if someone looked at it well enough, they'd see it.

He'd originally planned to put Michonne or Andrea in it when the time came, knowing either of them would notice and find a way to break free. They would escape and put an end to the Governor's tyrannical rule. He was certain Sam was just as capable and he kind of hoped she'd do it and get away with it.

<font color=""#92278f"">Carol met with Tyreese at the gate again. ""They aren't back yet?"" She knew Rick and his small group <span class=""bb-i"">should</span> be back by now. She felt a pang of worry well up inside her chest. Something had happened and she knew it. The question was what? What had happened? Had someone died? Had they <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> died? She knew that last one was highly unlikely, but not totally impossible. The population of walkers was increasing daily. That alone was a major threat, but there was also the person she'd seen in the woods.</font></div>"

Never before has he admitted to such things with her. This wasn't like Rick. Before he would of just barked orders telling her that she was not to go alone if she liked it or not. This, this was different. ""Rick, this isn't like you to just jump right into the fray. You like to think things threw. What's going on? I should be the only one thinking like that."" She looked him right in the eye.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam struggled for a bit trying to get free, but realized she would just be wasting her energy. She looked around the room not liking a bit of what she saw. ""Great, I'm going to be tortured. Janet and Rick I'm sure figured it out already. It's only a matter of time.""</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">Daryl decided to just follow her lead. It wasn't likely that something terrible happened to Rick and Janet. Both of them could take care of themselves and he also knew that both would have each others backs. ""We still have to get Sam back quickly if the Governor took her.""</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor could tell this wasn't working. Sadly, it seemed like he would have to take care of her before she cause trouble. ""Maybe we can talk this over a drink later. I'm trying to do what's best for Woodberry, but sometimes it feels like I'm losing my way. I'm sure you know what that's like.""</font></div>"

His eyes were red from stress and dried tears. ""I know I can't stop you. So, to protect you, I'm going instead of refusing to let you go. It's too risky this time. I lost a lot already and I'm not ready to lose you too."" He was being honest. Sure, it was uncharacteristic for him to open up like this, but he didn't want to lie. He <span class=""bb-i"">couldn't</span> lie. Not to her. It wouldn't be fair to either of them.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara gave Daryl a sad smile. He was right, but there was nothing they could do about if from here and especially not in this condition. ""Yeah. Yeah we do.""</font>
<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez hunted Milton down and found him laboring away on some useless project in his lab. ""Hey, Doc. Listen up."" He perched himself on Milton's desk. ""The Governor wants you to look after Blondy. Don't tell her that's what you're doing. Got it?""</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea didn't answer. She just looked at him with little emotion. She was going to win this.</font>
<font color=""#f26522"">Tyreese looked at Carol knowing she was just as worried as he was. ""Nope. Not even one of 'em."" He looked back out at the trees. ""Suppose it's kinda good. It means they're at least together, wherever they are.""

""That won't do them any good if they're dead."" Carol said, speaking her worst fears. She imagined Daryl lying in a pool of blood with Walkers chewing on his limbs. She shuddered. ""If they don't return in the next hour, I'm taking Glenn and Maggie to look for them. I want you to come with us."" 

Tyreese didn't like the idea of leaving the prison, but he nodded to show he supported Carol's choice.</font></div>"

She felt something well in when he said he couldn't lose her. He didn't just say that to anyone and she knew that. ""We better head back to the prison then. This run will has to wait for another time. I will warn you, I'm not leaving unless ether I die or the Governor dies. That much I know."" Her face was blank and her voice rash. She wanted to make sure Rick knew she meant what she said.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">""Knowing Janet she'll want to go as soon as she can. Also knowing Rick he'll want to go with her to protect her. He's good like that, but Janet is somethin' different to him I bet. Doesn't take much to notice it really."" Daryl may not be one to read woman well he could still tell the Rick and Janet had something because they always had each others backs. When Lori died Janet was the first person to try and comfort him even when he went crazy and yelled at everyone.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton looked up and blinked a few times. ""What? Since when did I become a baby sitter? I'm not sure I understand what's going on."" Milton couldn't say no to the Governor but at the same time he wasn't fully happy with how things were being run in Woodberry as of late. He could tell that something had just happened but didn't want to know.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""In the mean time I have something I would like you to do. Milton needs help with his experiments, and I'm sure he would like it very much if he had your help. I'll take you to his lab and he can give you more information from there."" The Governor smiled knowing that later Andrea might try something. He was able to tell when the wheels in her head were turning, and this time was no different.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam inspected the chair she was in and didn't notice anything at first. On the next look she found some rips in the straps that she knew she could work on but it would take time. How much time she had she didn't know but she knew that she had to try.</font></div>"

Lara seemed to be helping him stay there. ""Let's go back and try not to make a big deal about it once we're there. We don't want everyone thinking they have to get in on it.""</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara gave Janet and Rick a sad smile as they came to meet she and Daryl. She was glad to see they were safe. ""Any lead?"" She was sure she knew exactly where to go with this. She was almost one hundred percent certain it had been the Governor.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea had the feeling that the Governor's request to aid Milton was just a way to keep her busy and to keep tabs on her. God, did she feel untrusted and useless. She just wanted out. She wanted to be back with Rick and his group without the threat of the Governor constantly hanging over over her. Over her friends.</font>
<font color=""#f6989d"">""Hey man. I only make half of the rules. This is not one of them."" Martinez got up and headed for the door. ""Governor's orders. Oh, and you might want to pretend like you need her help. That will make it easier to fake it.""</font></div>"

Rick had never acted like this with her before. ""Hey Rick you've been acting odd today. What's going on? It has me a bit worried."" It was better she phrased it that way then asking Rick if he was feeling different around her. ""I just ask because I want to make sure you're ok."" Granted while she was still trying to sort out her own head she was curious about Rick's.

She turned to Lara and sighed. ""We think the Governor has her. Maybe as a hostage or for some kind of deal who knows. Rick and I are going in after her with at least one other. We can't risk too many bodies for this.""</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">""I'm going with ya. I can't stand sitting around while the rest of you go off on this."" Daryl was not going to take no on this issue. He was never going to let a member of the group down when he could help them. ""I'm fine now, I'll just need some rest before we go.""</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton sighed clearly not happy about this. He didn't like that Andrea was shoved off on him, not because he didn't like Andrea but because Andrea had the right idea. The Prison and Woodberry will both suffer for this war. He was honestly getting tired of this treatment, but still couldn't bring himself to turn on the Governor.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""If you excuse me I have other business to take care of. I'll see you later tonight."" The governor smiled and walked away heading to see Sam. While she may not be the sister he wanted he could still get something out of her.

He met up with Merle hearing Sam fighting to get free and yelling. ""Well, seems like this one is just as much of a handful as her sister. Anything I need to know?""</font></div>"

He didn't know what odd behavior she meant. He <span class=""bb-i"">had</span> opened up, but was that really strange? Maybe it was. But really, he just trusted her. He felt like he could be truly honest with her. And he acted on that feeling. He hoped it didn't come across as weakness. He was by no means weak. He was just human with feelings and emotions just like anyone else. 

He shook his head to clear it a little bit. ""I'm fine."" He smiled at her. Then he faced Lara and Daryl. ""Daryl, I need you to stay at the prison and make sure things stay calm while I'm out. Lara, I'm thinking about taking you because I'm sure you know the place better than we do."" He thought about the second part. Did he trust her enough for that? For all he knew, she could be the very reason Sam had been kidnapped. ""Or Michonne."" He knew the Governor probably wanted Michonne, but she was probably his best choice. He was undecided about it, but he as sure he'd know by the time they got back to the prison.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara nodded at Rick. This wasn't a game anymore. If he decided to take her with him, she would definitely prove herself. She would finally be a part of the group. A member of the team. Team Rick. She had to stop herself from giggling at the thought of everyone in the prison wearing matching T-shirts with the words <span class=""bb-i"">Team Rick</span> plastered to the front.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">There was a knock on the door and then it opened as Martinez let himself in. ""Doc's ready for ya."" He looked at Andrea and pointed his thumb behind him. Andrea glared at him before getting up and walking out. He gave her a dirty grin and she flipped him the bird. That asswipe. If the Governor was God, Martinez thought he was fucking Jesus.</font>

""She's a major pain in the ass."" Merle said, not looking up. He was using the tip of his blade to pick the dirt out from underneath his fingernails. ""Could use a slap or two. The bitch is just as nuts as the rest of 'em.""</div>"

Rick is right Daryl, besides, if he sends a team to try and kill us again we'll need you back at the Prison."" Janet was dead set on making sure Daryl stayed at the prison.

""We should head back before the others start worrying too much. Lara could you please ride with Daryl? I would feel much better if you did after his injury."" Janet smiled trying to hide her worry.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">""As much as I hate to say it Janet and Rick are right. I'll stay back. Besides, as soon as Glenn hears about this he'll want blood. He's been on the warpath after we got them back. It is a good idea if Lara drives since my head is killin' me."" Daryl held himself up getting into the cab of the truck.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor smirked. ""Good, good. Maybe we can use her to get Janet and Machonne. Promise Sam back for Janet and then promise we'll leave them alone if I get Machonne. Rick maybe be their leader but he also cares about the group as a whole. Maybe this will be just what we need."" The Governor walked in and locked the door behind him and turned to face Sam.

""Just so you know you're sister is the reason you're here and so in Machonne. Machonne killed my daughter and took my eye; as for your sister she shot me and that I can't just forgive. Shooting me in my own town. She's a wild one your sister."" The Governor walked to her and didn't care that she was giving him a death glare. It was funny to him really.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam just shook her head. ""If you think this is going to get my sister and Machonne you have surprise waiting for you. Rick and Janet are going to just come and take me back. She'll tear you a new one just to get to me and come back to kill you later. Rick being Rick will also come in guns blazing."" Sam spit on him then gasped feeling a hand on her throat as a hard slap to her face.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""I'm counting on it. You're sister is predictable when it comes to you and I'm hoping to grab her. Someone like her doesn't think clearly when her family is on the line."" He punched her in the gut. ""You better hope she gets here soon or you'll lose a limb.""</font>

She was fighting trying not to cry but before they even left she felt hot tears running down her cheek. ""God, I should of gone with her for this run. Maybe, she would still be here."" Janet felt herself breaking down again. This was all just too much for her. She could feel her emotions erratically changing from rage to sorrow in a flash. ""It's already bad enough that I'm the reason dad is dead and I promised him I would take care of her before he died."" Janet was hiding her face in her hands at that point leaning on the car door and banging her fist on it so hard she started to crack the lining.</font>

<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor spent an hour on Sam beating the shit out of her and some mild torture. The woman looked worse for wear but he was just getting warmed up. ""I'll be back later to deal with you."" He walked out with some blood splatter on his shirt and face. He looked to Merle. ""Be ready for an attack some time tonight. The girl made a good point. Rick and the others will be here soon. Leave Janet and Michonne to me. Don't screw this is this time Merle.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam sat there bleeding some from her mouth and winced from the pain caused by her cracked ribs. She was surprised that he didn't do anything worse to her like what had happened to Maggie, but this might just be a warm up.

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""I totally agree."" Lara said, starting the truck. She hoped this thing resolved soon and for the better. She hated seeing these people hurt. When one person took a hit, they all did. It was the closeness that made her want to belong.</font>

She knew that Milton was not a fan of the Governor, but she also knew he was a complete pushover. So easy to manipulate. She often found herself wondering how he had survived this long. ""What am I doing?""</font>

Merle nodded. ""Yessir."" When the Governor had his back turned to him, he made a face. The asshole thought he was fucking God and it pissed Merle off. Yet, Merle stayed. There was warmth, safety, food, respect. But he was really beginning to get tired of his shit.

When the Governor was guaranteed out of earshot, he pushed the door open. He carried in a rag that he would use to clean the torture tools in case the Governor came back. 

""Listen. That chair only needs a little work. You get out. You go get Rick and you don't say I sent you. Rick's the only way that asshole's gonna get was he's got comin'."" He slipped a pair of scissors between Sam's thigh and the side of the chair, easy to reach if she ever broke free. ""Or just do the job yourself."" His voice was low and his gaze stayed on his own hands. He didn't want to look suspicious in the event that the Governor or any of his followers came to inspect.</div>"

<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam couldn't believe what was happening. Was this a trick or did he really want to help her. She kept her voice down just in case there was someone else around. ""Why are you helping me. You're boss is a sick asshole."" Sam gasped in pain from adjusting herself in the chair. ""You also beat the shit out of Glenn, why should I believe you?""</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton thought quickly. ""Umm I need you're help collecting some biters. After what happened last time you help me I'm feeling umm.. a bit jumpy with them. It will be just outside of Woodberry and the more hands the better I um think."" Milton wasn't sure if she would just run away and if asked he couldn't help but tell the Governor what happend.</font></div>"

He could see Lara and Daryl looking at them. He motioned for them to leave. He'd be sure to catch up soon. He could see  Lara nodding her response before she pulled away.

He turned all of his attention back onto Jan. He rested his cheek against the top of her head and listened as she sobbed into his chest. He rubbed her back, trying to comfort her. Obviously, his previous attempt to calm her had not done the tick.

""I'm glad you care, but I want you to know, I <span class=""bb-i"">am</span> going. I don't want to lose you either."" He knew he'd be a wreck if he lost Jan. There weren't many people he couldn't survive without, but she was one of them. He needed to be there with her. He needed the Governor dead. He needed Sam back. He needed things to just be good for a while.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara nodded at Rick as he motioned for her to go ahead back to the prison. ""Looks like they need a moment. Better give it to them."" She smiled at Daryl. ""And if you ever need help, just holler.""</font>

Merle looked into her eyes. ""You just answered your own question, girly."" He finished wiping off the last of the tools. He regretted what he did to Glenn, but he hadn't had much of a choice at that point. He had honestly still been pretty pissed with Rick. It was his way of getting back at him, but now he totally regretted it. He'd almost <span class=""bb-i"">killed</span> Glenn.

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea chuckled. ""You people never learn, do you?"" She stood up and checked for her weapons. ""C'mon. Let's get this over with.""</font></div>"

""Don't you see, the rest of the group needs you more then they need me. You're our leader, and the reason we got this far. I'm not saying I want to die, not at all. I just want my only sister back."" She stopped to try and take a deep breath and it managed to calm her some. ""As much as I hate the idea of you going with me I know I can't talk you out of it not matter how hard I try. Just, be careful at least for me and everyone else.""

Janet took another deep breath this time it getting her in a calmer place. She moved her head to look up at Rick resting her forehead on his shoulder. ""I just wish the group could catch a break, that you and I could. I just have to keep fighting for the group and for me.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">""When I get out I'm going to tear into this place until I find him. He told me what he wanted to do to Janet.. Raping her, making her beg for death until she's broken? I can't let a man like that live. He won't just leave her alone, or us. I also can't forgive what you've done, but I can at least show you some compassion because of Daryl."" Sam coughed up a bit more blood and spit it out away from them. The pain was starting to numb a bit, but still wasn't pleasant.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">""Umm so what seems to be on your mind Andrea?"" Milton honestly didn't want to have her help because he knew this ether way would not turn on well. The Governor has lost in since Rick came thru Woodberry, and he had a feeling something bad was going on behind his back. As much as he didn't want to know he still felt maybe he could bring the Governor back to sanity.</font></div>"

None of ours are dying any time soon, so don't you worry."" He gave her back another rub.</font>

Daryl. Daryl. <span class=""bb-i"">Daryl.</span> This had nothing to do with Daryl, yet the name struck Merle. ""Look. I don't care what you do, but you leave him out of it, you understand? If he gets hurt, I will kill every fucking one of you."" He growled and left. He knew he had been harsh, but sometimes he felt like he had to be.

<font color=""#fff200"">""I hate walkers."" Was all she said. She really did hate them. They made her hate the Governor more. His sick game. His sick attitude.

""We better get going Rick. I'm itching to get back and get ready for this."" She closed the door to her side of the car and waited for Rick to get in. She was still upset, but was able to think clearly. She was thinking of all the ways she could kill the Governor, and get Sam out safe, each one was more brutal then the last. ""Thank you Rick, for everything. I feel like I don't say it enough.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam sighed knowing he didn't understand what she meant but she couldn't let that get to her right now. The Governor might be back for her soon and she had to work fast to get free. ""I'm not going to let that creep get to me or Janet."" Sam was able to loosen one of the straps, but it still wasn't enough.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">""Look, don't treat me like him please.. I'm honestly worried about you and what Phillip is doing. I know that man I knew before all of this is still in there, I just..

<font color=""#92278f"">""Where are Rick and the others?"" The worry was evident in her voice. ""They're okay, right?"" She almost sounded frantic. Tyreese came to stand behind her. He put a hand on her shoulder.</font>
<font color=""#39b54a"">The prison gate came into view as Rick pulled out of the trees. He had a serious look on his face as he mentally prepared himself to break the news. He knew everyone would know as soon as they saw that Sam was not among those returning and he would have to tell them what had happened.</font>
<font color=""#f26522"">""Carol, look!"" Tyreese said when the sedan came into view. He pointed at it with a grin on his face. ""They're fine. Nothin' to worry about.""</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea snapped her full attention to Milton. ""<span class=""bb-i"">Kill</span> him? You think I'm planning to kill him?"" She got nervous. How had he known? Was it that obvious?</font></div>"

She knew Glenn would try to come just to get another shot at the Governor because of Maggie, but that wasn't the best idea. hell, having her go was just as bad honestly.</font>
<font color=""#ff7f50"">Carl ran to hug his father then looked up but stepped back when he saw his face. ""Dad.. what's wrong?"" He knew by now what that face meant. Looking to Janet he could tell it wasn't something good.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne watched not to far way and knew by the look on Rick and Janet's face that something had happened. She walked up to meet Rick and the others to see what was going on. The atmosphere around Rick and Janet was heavy and when she didn't see Sam she could see why. ""What happened out there and where is Sam?""</font>
<font color=""#00ffff"">Janet just sighed and looked to her feet. ""Sam has been taken, and we're pretty damn sure by who. Daryl was knock out so they could grab her. Rick and I are going to get her back with a small team.'</font>
<font color=""#4682b4"">Maggie was up with Glenn in the watch tower and saw Rick come back. She pulled on Glenn's sleeve. ""Glenn, Sam didn't come back with Rick. Oh my god... We better go see what's going on.""</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">""Andrea, you can't hide when you're angry with someone very well, and it's clear to me how much the prison group means to you. Now what's going on?""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara jumped back into the truck, starting it up again. She waved Michonne over and patted the seat next to her.</font>
<font color=""#00aeef"">Glenn followed Maggie down to ground level. Something was definitely wrong. Rick was organizing groups. It looked like a search and he wanted in.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">""Just because he's a sick bastard doesn't mean I want to kill him."" Andrea shook her head. Milton was clever, but it had only been a guess.</font></div>"

""Rick, what's going on and why are you leaving again? Where's Sam?"" Maggie could tell by the look on Janet's face that something had happened. Janet and Sam were dear to her just like anyone else in the group. At first she thought Lara did something but if that was the case then things would be way different right now.</font>
<font color=""#00ffff"">Janet just took a seat in the back bringing Sam's rifle with her. She didn't want to say it again, especially to Maggie and Glenn. She couldn't take ti right now. She just wanted to get on the road and get to Woodberry. She knew Rick could explain it just as well as she could.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne took the seat that was offered next to Lara. ""My god will he ever stop?"" She looked back at Janet thru the rear view mirror to check on her. So far she was calm, but she figured she wasn't doing as well an hour ago. ""I'll do more then take an eye this time.""</font>
<font color=""#ff7f50"">Carl looked to Janet then back to his father. ""Bring her back dad, I know you can. I'll keep watch here."" Carl wasn't fully sure why they didn't just burn Woodberry to the ground at that point, but he didn't have any say in the matter.</font>
<font color=""#2e8b57"">Daryl patting Rick on the shoulder. ""Don't worry about things here brother, I'll take care of it. Just bring her back safe for both everyone's sake."" He started to head back to the cell block to rest his head knowing Rick was going to take care of things as best he could.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton wasn't buying it, but it seemed she wasn't going to say more. ""Can you at least do me the favor of not lying to me anymore Andrea please.

The last thing he wanted was for Maggie or Glenn coming in and letting their rage get in the way of what was really important.

Rick turned to Carl, giving him one of his rare, gentle smiles. ""We'll get her back."" He hugged his son, planting a quick kiss on the boy's forehead. ""You take care.""

He then looked at Daryl as he walked away. He knew the prison was safe with the quiet man in charge. Then he went to the car and slid in, glancing at Jan to make sure she was ready.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara chuckled a little. ""I think Janet staked a claim on his head. I think Rick's gonna let her have it too."" She turned the car on, ready to leave as soon as possible. ""I don't blame either one of them.""</font>

""I'll do more then take his head. He doesn't really understand who he's fucking with."" Janet clenched her fists tightly as they rested in her lap to the point to where her knuckles where turning white.

Her sadness was quickly replaced with rage. She was more then willing to burn down Woodberry, but Rick wasn't going to let her do it. As insane as she knew it was she didn't care. ""Let's just get going please.""</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne sighed seeing Janet think, and she knew that it couldn't be good. Janet wasn't the kind of woman to just leave things be. Michonne knew that Janet was going to bulldoze her way to her sister no matter what happened on the way. ""The faster we get there the better.""</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton just let the topic drop. It was clear she wasn't going to tell him anything. He's just have to find out another way. ""Right, so umm, I think I see a biter up ahead we can us.""</font></div>"

He put the car in drive and backed out of the gate, signaling to Lara and Michonne that it was time to go.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara nodded, though she knew Rick couldn't see her from where he was. The action had also been partially in acknowledgement to Michonne's comment. ""Yeah. I think we all want to see him dead.""</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea looked hard at the place Milton had indicated and, sure enough, a walker was stumbling around. It was missing an arm and had a knife sticking out of its shoulder. ""Yup. You got the pole?"" She held a hand out to take the looped pole from him, determined to get the thing and go.</font></div>"

This was the gun Janet gave her when she turned 21. It was after her and their father taught her how to use a rifle. The truth was, while Janet may have been part of Sam's learning she was still better then Janet. The girl could catch on to things quickly on many things. Each sister had a different skill set and personality, but they would fight to the death for the other.

Janet sighted running her hand over the engraving of her sister's name on the gun thinking back to how Sam on her first lesson thought she would be terrible with a rifle and guns in general; a few years later, and she was an amazing shot.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne nodded. ""I just wish Andrea wasn't blind to who he was. Well, when the fire fight starts we'll see what happens.""

Michonne was still not happy that her friend had picked Woodberry over her when it was pretty clear things were not as they seemed. Maybe many of the residence didn't know what was going on ether and they seemed more willing to believe his lies for the sake of comfort then risk losing it. This was the whole reason she didn't like staying with too many other people, but Rick's group seemed to be different then the others she's run into. They were honest, and cared for each other.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">""Oh uh yea here's the pole Andrea. Just.. be careful ok?"" Milton handed over the pole to her and stood back somewhat nervously watching Andrea's movements as well as the walkers.</font></div>"

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea took the pole from Milton, directing her attention to the walker. It stumbled around, completely unaware of their presence. She got its attention. It charged at her in the traditional zombie chase stance with its arms stretched out in front of it and its mouth hanging open. She held the pole out in front of her so that the walker would inevitably hook itself in. Within a few minutes, it did and she began dragging it back to town.

""C'mon, Doc. We got your walker."" She walked past him without looking at him.</font></div>"

She was still focusing on the gun, but took time here and there to look up only to check and see if there were there yet. She was honestly ready to start shooting someone. One she finished obsessing over the gun she started on her own side arm. It was old and a bit worn, but still worked like it was new, but that was manly due to how well she took care of the gun. It was cleaned after each use and inspected daily. She couldn't afford to have it lock up on her when she needed it the most.

""We should be there soon."" The eery calm in her voice was far from normal and her eyes had turned a darker shade. She has sunk into her dark place; a place not too far from Rick's when Lori died, but she still have her sanity for the time being. She had shed her humanity for the time being in order to do whatever she needed to do to get Sam back.

The group had only seen it one other time and it's when a man attacked her and Sam while they were out in the woods for the winter. Needless to say by the end of it there was nothing left to clean up once she was done with him. Dark Janet is what everyone called it.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton stammered for a bit then followed Andrea. ""Oh um thank you for your help Andrea. We'll need to take it to my lab so I can start to get to work. Well, so we can start to get to work.""</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne saw that they weren't far from Woodberry and waved to Rick. ""It might be a good idea to pull over here. I'm sure they're expecting us at this point.</font></div>"

He knew what it felt like to lose someone important to him and he figured Jan was responding in a way similar to the way he had. Every once in a while, he shot a glance at her to make sure she wasn't crying. 

""Yeah. I'd give it five more minutes."" He said when she spoke. He turned off of the road, planning on a quiet entrance. He didn't want the people of Woodbury blowing them to bits before they even got inside. That would be pointless. He hoped Lara and Michonne understood. He trusted that they would. They were smart people.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara saw Rick turn off into the trees. She thought it was kind of funny, knowing the little sedan was probably not intended for such a setting. The truck that she drove, however, would handle it with no issue. 

She followed behind with a good fifty foot space between the two vehicles. It would be harder to overtake them if they were spread out.

""You're probably right. Though, he seems to want to go a little further with the cars. Maybe looking for a place to park?"" She wouldn't question Rick, but she sometimes wondered what he was thinking.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">""Yeah."" Andrea said, not even trying to hide her frustration. Then she stopped walking mid-stride. She maintained a tight grip on the pole and blocked out the sound of the hungry walker as she listened to the distant sound of tires in the woods. After a minute, she drew a gun and turned on Milton. ""You led me out here to die!"" She shouted. ""This was a plan to get me executed! And to think I fell for it. Wow!""</font></div>"

""So what do we do after this? Just pretend that everything is fine again? Like we're not in a world filled with the undead? Maybe we'll have a party and start an orgy."" Janet's stress was showing. Truth be told she was starting to feel the weight of the world she once knew falling apart. She missed her job, and she missed her life, but that was long gone. With the kidnapping of Sam it was hitting her harder then ever before.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton was shocked and held his hands up. ""Ummm no, I wouldn't want to hurt you Andrea. What are you talking about? If the Governor wanted you dead he wouldn't do it like this you know that.""

She had a point to some extent. Though the threats of walkers and even other people were very evident, he had lead his people to hang on by pushing the scenario out of their minds. He was very guilty of it as well, doing everything he could to pretend he wasn't dying on the inside.

He shook his head. ""I don't know, Jan."" That was all he could really think to say.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea kept a close eye on Milton. He seemed to be telling the truth, but she knew the Governor. He probably hadn't even told the skittish man. She knew he wouldn't execute her in town. She would look too much like a martyr. It was easier to cover up a shooting in the woods. Just blame it on Rick or the walkers. Simple. Just like everyone else he had killed.

She kept he gun aimed at Milton, but focused her hearing on the sounds of moving tires. They seemed to be moving away now. Like the vehicles that were making the noise were driving past them and not stopping to meet them. This was interesting and she slackened her posture a little, still maintaining her aim.

""How can I be sure you're not lying?""</font>

""He ain't lyin'"" Merle stepped out. He held his hands up when Andrea's gun focused itself on him. 

""Why the hell would I <span class=""bb-i"">ever</span> believe you?"" She hissed.

""I don't like him either. But I'm better at hiding it."" He shot a serious glance at Milton. ""Don't report that. You're watching Blondy, not me. Got it?""</div>"

""I'm sorry. I haven't stopped being stressed since this started, the whole end of the world bullshit. The sooner we get Sam back the better for me. I don't like being like this even if I'm willing to kill anyone when I am."" Janet mulled over what she had just said and remembered that it was not just a group effort that got them to survive but Rick's leadership that pulled them thru it.

""You've done a fine job of learning us past the shit that is this world. Dad... would of liked you and he didn't like many people. Hence why we lived in the woods our whole lives."" Janet laughed some trying to kill the tension in the air and it seemed to work a bit.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">After what felt like hours of struggling Sam was able to free herself from the chair but she still had to get out of her cell and out of Woodberry. She knew Rick and the others would come soon, but also the Governor might use her as a shield when the fighting started.

She grabbed the scissors from between her legs and hid them in the palm of her right hand when she heard someone coming. Siting back in the chair like she was before making it look like she was still strapped in just in case that was someone paying her a visit. Just as she finished up the Governor walked in with a shit eating grin on his face.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">""I've been told that a group from the Prison has been spotted leaving the prison just after they got back. Not surprising is the fact that your sister and Michonne is part of the group. Now, I'm going to give you one chance to get out of this without any more harm done to you. Lead your sister and Michonne to me and I'll let you and the rest of the group go free. If you're not willing to do this then you might get a bigger taste of what I have planned for them.""

The Governor was lying but was able to hide it well. He had no intention of letting any one go today; his targets just happened to be coming his way. It was only a matter of time before he'd have to deal with Rick and his crew. Might as well weaken them before doing so.</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam just laughed the shook her head. ""You're fucking mad to think I would do that. How about this deal. You let me go and go fuck yourself."" Just as Sam finished she screamed out in pain as the Governor stabbed her in the shoulder.

""Wrong answer little girl."" He hissed menacingly.

He raised the knife to stab her again but she pulled out the scissors and stabbed him in the leg since she couldn't reach anything else. She bolted out of the chair but fumbled to open the door for a moment due to the blood on her hands but was able to get it open and ran as fast as she could out of there. She ran into Martinez and gasped feeling dizzy from the blood lose and knew she couldn't take him in a fight so she opted to run instead but tripped over a pool of her blood.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton just stammered more almost ready to run himself. ""Ummmm ah I wasn't going to say anything Merle. I don't know what's going on honestly. Did.. her grab someone else?"" Milton felt mortified at that idea knowing full well what was going to happen.

""Andrea, I wouldn't betray you. I think you might be able to bring Phillip back to his scenes. Please you can trust me.""</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne sat forward in her seat seeing something in the woods. ""Stop, I see something. It looks like... Andrea. Lara we have to stop now."" Michonne didn't know what she was doing out here, but didn't like what she saw. While she may have been angry at what Andrea did she still cared about her.</font></div>"

It was time to take the rest of the trip on foot. He looked at Jan to make sure she was ready before he did anything else.</font>
<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez looked confused for a moment as Rick's girl ran into him, staining his shirt with blood. He watched as she ran and then snapped back into reality. He lunged for her but also slipped on the blood, collapsing into the wall. He twisted his ankle and crashed to floor with an angry grunt of pain. ""Little <span class=""bb-i"">bitch!</span>"" He hissed as he tried to stand up. He fell back down almost immediately.</font>

Merle kept his hands held up to prove to the others that he was posing no threat. ""Look. Andrea. Martinez and I just saw a truck and a sedan leave the prison lookin like they was comin here."" He shot another warning glance at Milton, knowing that, if the doctor ratted him out, he'd surely lose his head. ""They must be comin for the girl. I tried to help her out by giving her a weapon. Now, I think, between the six of yas, you can at least get outta here safely."" 

<font color=""#fff200"">Andrea lowered her gun a little, holding it in a way that it would be readily available if needed. ""You're telling me to help Rick break that girl out?"" She gave him a suspicious look. ""Sounds like treason. I always knew you were crooked.""</font>

Merle's anger flared a little and he dropped his hands. ""Hey! You want out or not?!"" He growled, lunging forward a step. Andrea's gun sprang up again. He stepped back. ""I'm tryin to help you out here.""

<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara slammed on the brakes, rather surprised by the ferocity in Michonne's voice. ""Wha.....?"" She followed Michonne's line of sight to see the blonde beyond the trees. She looked like she was in trouble. Not too much trouble, but some nonetheless. She had Merle at gunpoint and Milton.... well Milton was by no means a threat unless he was ratting someone out.</font></div>"

""Shit we need to go back for them."" Janet got out of the car in a rush the rifle ready to go if needed. She ran a head finding that the truck had stopped not far from them. It seemed like everything was fine so she looked back for Rick who was surely following her.

""What happened? Is something wrong?"" She asked Michonne when she was getting out of the car but Michonne just looked at her and ran off into the trees he sword drawn. ""Shit. Lara, what's going on?""</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne hide behind the trees as she got closed to Andrea trying to listen to what was going on. It seemed as if Merle was helping Andrea with something, but she still couldn't be sure of that.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton was confused for a moment. ""Wait, you want to help the girl escape? Umm I have a feeling I'm lost here. Wait, who did her grab? He didn't grab Machonne did he?"" Milton knew at that moment hell was going to rain down on Woodberry. ""Does he know how risky that is? The Prison.. they'll be here.. my god.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam was able to get herself up and get a good enough footing to wear she could run away from Martinez. She held her hand over her injured arm trying to stop the bleeding but she could still feel blood flowing. ""Shit, umm where to go. I better hurry dammit.""

She looked around panicked trying to find a way out. God, it was stupid for her to leave her only weapon behind. Stupid stupid stupid!</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor followed the blood and found Martinez trying to get up. ""What the hell are you doing? Get your ass up and go after her!"" He was fuming at that point not only did she get free but someone had to of given her a weapon.. and there's only one person that came to mind... Merle. ""God dammit."" He pulled Martinez up with force as they both started running after her.</font></div>"

He was following Michonne's trail with his eyes until they met quite an interesting scene. Andrea, Merle and a man he didn't know.</font>
<font color=""#ed1c24"">Lara motioned for Janet and Rick to be quiet and pointed at the scene beyond the trees. Rick was already looking and had a pensive look on his face. She came to a tree next to Michonne's and looked on with equal secrecy.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">""Why would you possibly want to <span class=""bb-i"">help</span> me?"" Andrea kept her gun sturdily aimed at the older man. ""It's not like you have any good reason to.""</font>

Merle shook his head. ""Can't a man be kind every once in a while?"" He shrugged and gave her a cheesy grin.

""You've never been kind."" Andrea said matter-of-factly. ""You've always been a downright asshole. Not a kind cell in your body.""

Merle's grin faded. ""Well, I mean it. And this dumb fuck could never lead you out here to get killed. He ain't even got enough balls to catch his own biters."" He motioned to the walker that hadn't seemed to get the hint that there was no chance of getting to Andrea. ""Too much of a pussy."" He shook his head.

<font color=""#fff200"">""And that's why you think he's telling the truth."" It was more of a statement of disbelief than a question. ""I'm calling bullshit.""</font>
<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez hobbled after the Governor. His ankle was definitely swollen, uncomfortably rubbing up against the inside of his hiking boots. He wanted to swear at the Governor, but he knew it would get him nowhere but into trouble. It was definitely not worth it.</font></div>"

At the point it seemed as if she was trying to protect the Governor, but now something seemed to have changed. She looked readied the rifle putting Merle's head in the cross hairs. She took a deep breath and walked into the clearing still a fair distance away from the three.

""Where the fuck is she? I better get some answers before I start blasting heads."" She had her finger on the trigger and it was itching to pull.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne just sighed knowing what Janet did was stupid. This could be a trap for all she knew. She just stood back and waited for a chance to step in. Janet was going to start a fight she couldn't win if she wasn't careful. Damn that woman shouldn't of come.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton looked over to Janet and sighed. ""Oh great. Well, it's safe to say I'm not lying at the very least. Can we all just.. calm down please? Let's not start a fire fight.""

Milton was far from happy. All he was asked to do was distract Andrea but look how well that turned out. This was not going to end well for him at all.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor knew of a place where he could cut her off and headed that way not caring about Martinez keeping up or not. He was on the hunt. He limped to the other side of the building and heard her foot steps.

""I know you're here Samantha. No use hiding from me.""</font>
<font color=""#9966cc"">Sam panted still lost in the building and stopped in her tracks hearing the Governor. She looked around a corner but didn't see him. She was started to sprint and found a way out when she heard gun fire then pain in her leg. She had been shot by the Governor. she struggled to get up but knew she was too late.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor smiled putting his gun down and calmly walked to her. ""Well well well, looks like this little piggy didn't run all the way home."" His smile was twister and dark. He bent over and garbed her by the hair dragging her back to the cell as she screamed the whole way.</font></div>"

Rick hissed, reaching out for her, but it was too late. She held a gun aimed at Merle and was already talking. It was pointless to go after her. He just sat and watched from the cover of the trees. He figured, given the situation, it would be best if the other three didn't know who else was with Jan.</font>
<font color=""#fff200"">""Oh believe me, Doc. You're not out of the fire just yet."" Andrea now held her gun trained on the other woman. Though she seemed more focused on Merle than anyone else in the group. ""Hey, put it down.""</font>

Merle sighed. Of course. The sister. And she was looking right at him. She hadn't even seen him take the girl! ""Hey now."" He slowly brought his hands back up. ""Ain't nobody gettin' anywhere if I end up dead. So why don't you put that bad boy away. You too Andrea.""

""Fuck off."" Andrea hissed. He shot her a glare.

<font color=""#f6989d"">Martinez Limped behind, losing ground as the Governor ran with almost fluid ease. He almost ran into the man as he came back, dragging the girl by the hair. She was yelling at the top of her lungs and it was obnoxious, really.</font></div>"

""Just tell me where she is before this goes to hell fast. I don't care if I get taken out with you."" Janet was starting to slip back into her dark mode. She only had one goal in mind.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">""Umm he was about to help find her. Unless of course she's already dead then his help is pointless."" Milton shut up as soon as Janet looked at him with her dark eyes. He could feel that if she could, she would kill him with that look alone leaving nothing but ash. He looked to the ground staying quite the rest of the time.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne bit her lip waiting for her chance to jump out, but she looked to Rick for a signal. ""That woman is going to get herself killed."" she said softly to Lara. They would have to do something fast before Janet starts a bloodbath.</font>
<font color=""#dc143c"">The Governor threw her back in the chair and ties her to it with rope. When he's done he puts pressure on her bullet wound. ""Just for that you're getting more then a taste of what Janet has coming."" Her back hands her when she screams out in pain from her leg. 

After an hour with Sam the Governor walks out still limping some leaving a passed out Sam behind him. She was covered in her own blood from gashes all over her body. Her clothes were torn up and she had marks all over her chest and her left eye was swollen shut. She wasn't close to death but it felt like she was.</font></div>"

<font color=""#fff200"">""<span class=""bb-i"">Milton!</span>"" Andrea hissed in his direction. Then she spoke up, looking at the woman. ""I don't know where they have her, but I'd be willing to help find her."" She put her gun on the ground. She heard Merle grunt with humored disbelief.</font>

Why not me?"" Janet sighed trying to understand what was going on and why.

She looked over at Rick seeing him move slowly to her. She already knew what was coming. She was an idiot and she was sure he was going to bitch her out for it.</font>
<font color=""#2f4f4f"">Michonne slowly walked up next to Janet. ""Does a man like that really need a reason? He sent his attack dog after me to try and kill me just because I left Janet. He's not the kind of man that likes to be messed with.""

Michonne looked to Andrea. ""I'm glad to hear you've seen who he really is Andrea."" Michonne didn't know what else to say to the woman, but felt she deserved some kind of attention from her.</font></div>"

She turned to Rick making sure he was ok with this idea. ""I know I.. fucked up. I could of gotten myself and the rest of us killed. I.. wasn't thinking Rick. I should of waited for you.""

Janet hung her head low.</font>
<font color=""#deb887"">Milton sighed. ""Oh great... he's going to have my head for this. Umm I'm really not comfortable with killing him.

""As long as you see now what I was trying to show you. I knew I was going to hurt you with what I did but it was the only thing I could do for you.""

Name: Serena Tsukino
Age: 16 
Bio: Born 1,000 years ago on the Moon, Princess Serena she was the beautiful daughter of Queen Serenity. She was in love with the Prince Darien on Earth. At the height of the Moon Kingdom, the Negaverse invaded the kingdom. Queen Beryl killed Princess Serena and Prince Darien. Realizing she'd lost her daughter, Queen Serenity used the Imperium Silver Crystal in conjunction with the Crescent Moon Wand to seal the Queen Beryl and the Negaforce away.
However, knowing that the negative forces would eventually break free, she instructed Luna and Artemis to find the Sailor Scouts when the Negaverse was awakened. Using the last of her life force, Queen Serenity She then sent all of the subjects of the Moon Kingdom to be reborn in future and died shortly thereafter.
Serena spent the first fourteen years of her life on Earth unaware of her previous life as the Princess of the Moon. Adopting the traits of her new mother, Serena grew to become a struggling student and something of slacker, constantly late for school. Much to the displeasure of her parents, Serena shirked her responsibilities as a member her family and as a result of her spoiled nature, often whined about performing rudimentary tasks. Her relationship with Darien would also grow to become antagonistic, Darien often teasing her about her bad habits and hairstyle.

Personality: A bit selfish and very much a crybaby, and was lazy, clumsy, and an academic underachiever. Also a terrible cook. She could be jealous and possessive of Darien. she cares very deeply for her friends and family and is very trusting.

(didn't add that she knows her and darien are rini's parents seeing i don't know what point we are starting from)

Short bio on how he got to this diemnsion:Teo was just doing a routine Trip around the multiverse,but forgot to lock the spacial distabilizers,causing him to crash land in japan,with him stuck and the time warps broken,he is stuck here for a while,he decided to not interfere that much in the affairs in this dimension,but he might help.(;

other:has resistance  to mind reading/control,is also a mad scientist,has a PHd in cartoon physics,the more emotion power he uses,the weaker he gets.His soul cannot be destroyed(not to say he cant die),and if someone devours his soul,the will explode,soul is extremely strong ,and never takes his goggles off.Minimoon FTW.

Theme song:Stylo by Gorilla

((Ps:I know this isn't needed ,but he is a Scorpio ,making sailor Pluto his patron sailor))</div>"

She peered up at the gray sky, sighing as she rolled onto her stomach. <font color=""red"">”So boreeeeed.”</font> She whined. She hadn’t had a contract in a good fifty years and it was weighing on her sanity. If she didn’t get some entertainment soon she was going to snap! She groaned, rolling back onto her back again. Restless she sat up, glowering at nothing in particular; she was ready to blame anything on her dissatisfaction at this point. <font color=""red"">”Guess I can go bug Bastian-Chan again.”</font> She grumbled as she climbed up from the blood red grass and stretched, wings flexing behind her as her arms raised over her head. She sighed again and went to leap into the air before she paused, a puzzled expression donning her face. There was a tugging sensation below her navel and she didn’t know why. It took her a few seconds but when it hit her just what it was she gave a whoop of delight. Yes, someone was messing around with a Ouija board! Humans she could go play with! 

Leilah grinned before allowing herself to rise into the air fly through the temporarily open portal to the human world. She blinked and she was standing in a living room. She looked around, not seeing, hearing, nor smelling humans. Sure, one lived here but based on the scent he hadn’t been there for a while. She pouted and plopped onto the couch, already getting annoyed that she was going to have to wait on the humans. She didn’t know how much time had passed before she heard a heartbeat outside the door. She hopped to her feet, excitedly waiting for the human to open the door. When he did her smile dropped slightly at his appearance. Oh, how boring. Oh well, she'll find something she can do to mess with him. She glided over to him, lips spread in a fanged smile. <font color=""red"">""Hello there~""</font> She purred.</div>"

At first Scott was really shocked, he could not believe his girlfriend, who should have died 3 years ago was now standing in front of him, in his apartment, as if nothing ever happened. Maybe the ouija had something to do with it but Scott did no want to think much about it. He just ran towards the girl and hugged her, hiding his face in her chest and crying.

""Marina...Is it really you?""

He asked, then looked into her eyes.</div>"

And why did he call her Charlotte(even though you said Marina in the first post), did she remind him of someone? And did he completely miss the fact that she just flashed her fangs when she smiled? This one wasn't very observant now was he? But...maybe she could work with this, she didn't have anything else to do with her time. And besides, humans were much more fun at messing with that Sebastian was. He was such a stick in the mud, though it was pretty funny to see him smile at her when she knew the demon was really seething inside. Ah, good ole Bastian-Chan~ Her arms raised and wrapped his waist. It was a pity that she didn't know his name to make it more believable but she'll have to make due with what she was given. She forced tears into her eyes and pulled back, gazing up at him with a small smile. <font color=""red"">""I've missed you so much.""</font></div>"

Scott could not hold himself back and kissed her on the lips, interlocking their fingers as the real Marina always loved.
Suddenly Scott go a phone call, which totally ruined the mood, Scott broke the kiss and let go of ""Marina's"" hands.

""Yes, Scott speaking...Yes...Yes I'll be there tomorrow, don't be late.Bye""

Scott sighed, he got called just to confirm the hour of a meeting.

Hmmm...first time a human has ever kissed her before. Normally it's the other way around with her surprising them with a sudden interlocking of lips. A shrill ringing broke the moment and he stepped away to answer his phone, a device she notices humans seemed to fond of. She didn't understand the appeal. Why focus on a screen when there were much more interesting things to do in life. Like annoying people. She was especially good at it but when you have been around as long as she has you learn a thing or two. She then focused back on the human. Luckily with her enhanced hearing she was able to pick up the conversation. Seemed like a call for work. She tilted her head in a cute way, continuing to smile up at him. <font color=""red"">""For what?""</font>

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 62

<span class=""bb-b"">Occupation:</span> Prime Minister of Japan

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> Japanese

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Ueda is a calm, thoughtful man, one who projects a carefully cultivated image of dignified seriousness to the world. However, in spite of his gravitas, he is indecisive and reliant on the opinions of others in order to get anything done, perhaps depending too much on his advisers. His thoughtfulness can be something of a handicap- he takes a long time to make decisions, carefully weighing all variables. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Brief Bio:</span> Hirotoshi Ueda was born and raised in Niigata. Excelling in school, he developed an interest in politics early on, entering at a local level in his prefecture. He gained a reputation as solidly competent and reliable, if unimaginative, and worked his way up through the bureaucracy. He was eventually persuaded by a citizen action group to stand for election to the lower house of the National Diet, representing Niigata. Hardworking and serious, Ueda managed to make himself a pillar of his political party, working diligently towards the party line but not being so splashy as to attract unwanted press. The party considers him a useful tool and good figurehead. When the previous Prime Minister was ousted in a no-confidence vote following an embarassing sex scandal, it was almost unanimously agreed that the next man in office should be inoffensive, uncontroversial, and serious-minded- the representative from Niigata was a perfect fit. Ueda has spent the first few months of his administration carefully doing very little, and has yet to be seriously tested.

There was bloodshed of friends and the destruction of families. It wasn't a pretty sight to see, more like a nightmare. At this point, B.J. became more disoriented and got some mental anxiety. He started seeing things differently, as though the entire world was full of hate and war, blood and darkness. But he was devoted to fight, because war was not pretty and he understood that. He doesn't put up with pansies who think everything will be alright or that their actually fighting for their 'country'. B.J. thinks everyone should fight to merely survive at this point.

Appearance: 

<img src=""https://ukforcesafghanistan.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/bcoy1rw2mar10_067.jpg""/>
<span class=""bb-i"">Pvt. Jean-Balfourt of the French Foreign Legion on tour in Afghanistan, 2005.</span>

Gender: Male

Age: 33

Occupation: Geologist

Nationality: American-French 

Personality: Terence is a disciplined, intellectual man, shaped by his years in the military and in the field of geology. He is incessantly interested with his work, and has the ability to babble on and on about any subject in geology mentioned in conversation. He can relate with soldiers because of his experience in the military and knows how to use firearms. He has a simmering hate for the kaiju and it would not be considered prudent to turn that simmer into a flame.

Brief Bio: The outcome of an adventurous private in the Legion and a Parisian banker, Terence grew up in Paris. His family home was a short bus ride away from the Catacombs of Paris - the famed underground tomb where rows upon rows of skulls sat on racks. Besides the history of the place, Terence was also intrigued by the decay of the rock the tomb was made out of. He loved studying it and taking home small chips of rock to experiment on with his school's scientific instruments. His mother also made a pretty euro as a banker, and when Terence's father was on leave the whole family vacationed to ancient ruins all across Europe. Terence was most fascinated with the old castle ruins in Britain, fascinated by the variety of rock the ancient and medieval Britons used to build their fortresses.

Terence graduated from the University of Paris in 2003 in geology and minoring in history. However, this was also around the time that Terence's father was killed in action in Afghanistan. Terence felt it was his responsibility to remember his father by carrying out the same duty to his country. When he enlisted, he was miraculously put in the exact same regiment as his father, in Afghanistan. By 2005, he had fifteen kills to his name. However, Terence was wounded by a grenade in the same year and a piece of shrapnel found its way into his left leg. He was told by his surgeon that unfortunately he would have a permanent limp and had to be discharged from duty, which Terence did not take lightly.

Terence finally found a job which he was really interested in - as a geologist working for a mining company based in Brittany. He made a generally comfortable living for four years and sent money to his mother in France. Until one day, when he got himself separated from a group inspecting the deeper parts of a mine, he found a mysteriously very faintly glowing green rock about the size of his palm. He finally was reunited with the group, but he never told anybody about the mysterious rock, experimenting on it in secret. He was shocked to extract living cells made of unidentifiable DNA from the rock! The day after, he was contacted by an organization called Monarch, telling him they had answers. Terence resigned from his job (claiming he had been invited by his mother to work in Paris) and joined Monarch in secret. He was told that the mysterious living cells extracted from the rock belonged to the eggs of a MUTO, probably displaced as a result of a high biological signature.

Terence's aging mother was vacationing in Las Vegas when the MUTOs struck and was not found among the survivors. Terence grieved incessantly, and swore revenge on the MUTOs and vowed to kill at least one of them somehow. Godzilla did the dirty work for him, but Terence sensed that there could be more and payed even more attention to his work. Terence volunteered to be transferred to Japan last month because of certain scientific tests he wanted to carry out in Fuji.

Beginning Location: Conducting seismic tests on the lower slopes of Mount Fuji.
 
Other: Is also a devout Protestant Christian and an amazing soccer player (his favorite team is Real Madrid).</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance:</span> A middle aged Caucasian man, with unkempt iron grey hair and a constant sullen expression. He is unshaven, and his bloodshot brown eyes suggest sleep is something he doesn't get much of. His fingers are stained yellow from tobacco use, allowing for a flawlessly polished silver wedding ring to stand out more than it perhaps would. Apart from a few fillings further back, his teeth look to be in good shape.

He wears an over-the-top floral holiday shirt, something perhaps more fitting in a Hawaii setting. Khaki three-quarter lengths cover the worst of unseen scars that criss-cross his legs, and a pair of simple leather sandals adorn his feet. A leather satchel hangs across his torso, containing various holidaying items.

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 52

<span class=""bb-b"">Occupation:</span>  Unemployed, former General Practitioner.

<span class=""bb-b"">Nationality:</span> United Kingdom

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Daniel is a reclusive individual, who has suddenly thrown himself into the giant jaws of life. Avoiding human interaction, whilst at the same time seeking it, is a paradox that drives most of his relationships into the gutter. He likes his drink, and has little care for his well-being, which often causes him to engage in erratic and senseless behaviour. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Brief Bio:</span> Daniel had a successful life. Always a bright pupil with an insatiable curiosity for all things, he grew up to become a doctor. Passing one exam after another, and garnishing himself with several qualifications, it wasn't long before he ran his own surgery in a quiet Cambridgeshire village. 

Throughout his youth and humble beginnings, he'd had his flings and flames. However, it wasn't until the young and attractive Miss Chloe Parks walked into his surgery one day, asking about the vacant receptionist job, that he truly fell in love. The feeling was mutual, and they married a year later. Two years after that, Lucy Woods, his only child, was born. 

In 2011, Chloe was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Several rounds of chemo and radiotherapy were not enough to put the disease down, and a surgical procedure only prolonged the inevitable. She passed away in early 2014, with Daniel at her bedside in some depressing hospice ward.

Not one to be put down by things that can't be helped, Daniel took himself and his fourteen year old daughter on a holiday to Hawaii. The idea was to spend a few weeks out there, healing and recuperating after the tragedy. Alas, Godzilla's appearance put Daniel's life under a magnifying glass. 

Trying to leave Honolulu in the height of the chaos, Daniel and Lucy's cab was struck by a panicked fire-engine. She died instantly, along with the driver. Daniel himself was locked in the wreckage for several hours, unable to move as his legs had been impaled by twisted metal. 

...

Fast forward two years, and Daniel is a wreck. Alcohol rules his days, along with a few helpings of narcotics. He lost his surgery not long after Lucy's funeral, and has wallowed in self-pity ever since. Concerned friends approached him, and offered to send him off somewhere for a year - fully paid - to try and get to grips with his life. He conceded, and after spinning a globe and stopping it with a finger, randomly picked out Japan. 

And now here he is.

SATURDAY
11:15 AM, JAPAN STANDARD TIME</span>

The phone rang.

Or rather, every phone rang. 

In this day and age, it was predominantly mobile phones, of course. But landlines were not exempt, nor were satellite phones. In short, every telephone in service in the Japanese Archipelago suddenly received an unexpected call from an unknown number. A massive and inexplicable event, shared by hundreds of millions throughout the entire country. 

On this sunny summer morning, the reactions to the call were as varied as the millions who received it. Many chose not to answer. Of those who lifted the phone to the ear, Some rolled their eyes, some clucked their tongues, some laughed, some shrugged and muttered <span class=""bb-i"">""shikata ga nai""</span>- all before hanging up a scant few seconds into the message. Others, however, stopped whatever they were doing and listened to the entirety of the message. They were perhaps a minority, and among that minority only a slim few took the message seriously. 

The message, generally agreed to be some sort of recording, was taken down or recorded by countless hands all over Japan, to be played on television, printed in newspapers, and accessed online for the few who had not received it.

It was a male voice, speaking in flawless Japanese with a Kanto accent (though the many linguists who studied the tape concluded that the language was a second one and the accent affected). The tone was polite, but crisp, businesslike. After all, this was no social call. This was an ultimatum. 

The message was as follows:

<span class=""bb-i"">People of Japan, you have exactly forty-eight hours to announce your unconditional surrender.

The voice you are hearing belongs to a duly appointed emissary of the Empire of Seatopia. Be it known that the illegal government of Japan currently occupies territory that belongs rightfully to the Seatopian people. We were once a proud and prosperous people, the first of Earth's great civilizations, building grand cities before you even mastered agriculture or the wheel. For our genius, our generosity in shepherding the benighted people of what came to be called Japan, we were punished. Your rose up against your rightful masters, with sheer numbers you drove us underground and into the sea. Over the centuries we have watched as you took our ancestral home, as you befouled our garden, as you heedlessly and arrogantly rode roughshod over that which was rightfully ours.

The time has come to vacate the squatters.

Those who wish to leave Japan will not be hindered. Those willing to renounce their Japanese citizenship and swear an oath of fealty to the Most Serene Emperor of Seatopia, Antonio XXI, will generously be allowed the privileges of his subjects. We are an ancient people, just and forgiving, our steps guided by our merciful god Megalon, peace be upon Him.

Acquiescence to our terms is to be announced on television by your Prime Minister, on which occasion a formal document of surrender will be presented to the representatives of the Japanese government. Silence will be regarded as resistance- which I assure you will be met with misery and annihilation. 

You have forty-eight hours, Japan. May Megalon grant your leaders the wisdom to take your only realistic course of action.</span>

--------

Hirotoshi Ueda gently set the receiver back in the cradle, a faraway and thoughtful look on his face. The message had come through even on his supposedly secure, encrypted hotline. He looked over at Watanabe, his young personal aide, who was slowly shaking his head as he slid his cell phone into the pocket of his impeccable Armani suit.

""Watanabe,"" Ueda said slowly, removing his glasses as he turned his desk chair, ""did you just receive the same call?""

""Yes sir, I did,"" the younger man said. He looked down at the buzz of a text message. ""So did the Finance Minister, it seems."" A second buzz. ""As well as the governor of Tokushima Prefecture."" A third buzz. ""And my wife.""

""Your wife is not in government, is she?"" asked the Prime Minister. He rubbed at his temple with his fingers. Something here was wrong.

""No, sir. She is a banker- currently she is in Sapporo on business.""

Ueda frowned, deeply troubled. He stood, looked out the thick glass of his window, out at the hustle and bustle of the world's largest city on a bright Saturday morning. Watanabe's phone continued to buzz as he received more notifications.

""Sir,"" Watanabe said timidly after a few moments of respectful silence. ""Perhaps we should turn on the news."" Without waiting for permission, the aide flipped on the television built into the wall, bringing up an FNN special bulletin- regarding the strange phone call. Behind the anchors was a map of Japan, the prefectures that had reported inhabitants receiving the ultimatum colored in green. As Ueda watched, slowly the whole of Japan was highlighted in eye-catching green.

Ueda sighed. ""What is it, Watanabe? Some kind of prank? Viral marketing?""

""I don't know, sir.""

The Prime Minister sighed once more, as the FNN anchors chattered away, saying nothing of any importance. They seemed dismissive. Ueda was tempted to follow suit, but something was keeping him from being confident. He had never aspired to this office. ""It seemed very threatening, don't you think?""

""Yes, sir. But it could just be a publicity stunt, like they say.""

""Yes. Maybe. I don't know. I need to think. I should make a statement. Nothing about surrendering or any of this Seatopia nonsense. Just about finding whoever perpetrated this cruel prank.""

""So you don't think it's real?"" Watanabe asked, relief obvious in his voice.

""I don't know. Probably not."" Ueda picked up his glasses, considered a moment. ""I don't know,"" he said again. ""Perhaps, just in case, we should do something. Just in case.""

""What do you recommend, sir?"" 

""The Central Readiness Force. They should go on alert. Not war footing, but a heightened state of readiness. Just in case. But nothing too alarmist or public. Keep it quiet.""

""Yes sir."" Watanabe exited to see to his assignments, leaving the older man alone.

The Prime Minister sank into his chair. He had never expected to face anything quite this bizarre. 

Hopefully, though, it would turn out to be nothing.</div>"

Some joker called him and his staff and delivered a message. The odd thing was the message seemed to be nation wide. Cyber security was not his command but the rapid defense of Japan was. He contacted the Ministry of Defense for orders.

Finally he got an order to quietly order the forces into a war footing.

He called a meeting of his staff officers. At the meeting was Major General Masaki (Deputy Commander International Operations), Major General Isaki (Deputy Commander Domestic Operations), the CRF Chief of Staff (Colonel Raizo) and the two Vice Chiefs of Staff. 

Tadashi Onodera entered the room his subordinates stood up. ""Gentlemen, I assume you either got that strange call or know someone who did."" The General said in a manner more direct than most officers in Japan. He saluted the men and sat down. ""So I am here to tell you that the orders come on down from the JSO and the Cabinet. They want us to <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Quietly</span></span> prepare for a war footing."" The General emphasized the quietly part of his statement.  ""Now it will be no problems to get our soldiers here ready but we will need to contact our subordinate regiments. I believe our communication networks may have been compromised."" 

Onodera took a sip of water. ""Though we will communicate with our other bases I want messengers ready in case comms go down. I plan on heading to Eastern Army HQ to ensure they are ready as well.""

""Do we have orders to include them?"" asked General Isaki.

""We do. Also we cannot prepare if we can't communicate with other commands."" 

Onodera took a breath. ""Gentlemen we are dealing with an enemy that can hurt our people in ways we cannot imagine. If they can hack all the phones to send a message what else can they do?"" The officers there were silent. ""I'd rather prepare than not.""

The room was silent. ""Then I will head to At he Camp in Nerima and be back at at least.."" He saw his watch was 12:45. ""17:00 to 17:30 depending on traffic and meeting lengths. I will contact you if I am going to be later. While I am gone I want plans looked over.""

The men nodded and saluted as the general got ready and left.</div>"

Terence Philemon Louis Jean-Balfourt pressed the cold tablet screen close to his ear, seconds after the message. He was no linguistics expert, but he had learned a little bit of Japanese in Monarch training seminars. He could read a newspaper and have casual conversations over the phone, but this... this message eluded him. 

""Tekishi."" Terence turned to a young man with small rectangular-rimmed glasses and a beige insulated coat, who was also pondering his Samsung Nova.

""Mr. Balfourt?"" A crisp, fluent but slightly stilted voice in English replied.

""Did you just receive the same call?""

""Did... did it involve a sea kingdom and the unconditional surrender of Japan in forty-eight hours?""

""Yes. Yes it did.""

A buzz from Tekishi's phone. ""Apparently, the headmaster of the University of Tokyo also received this call.""

A second buzz. ""And so did Professor Kuroga of Microbiology.""

A third buzz. ""And so did Professor Hirachi of Robotics.""

A fourth buzz. ""And my sister.""

Terence rubbed his temples together. ""Your sister does not work in the university, does she?""

""No, Mr. Balfourt. If you recall, she is the secretary for the CEO of Sakamoto Steel Incorporated,  in Yokohama.""

""Hey."" Terence looked up and around. ""I can't hear the drills anymore.""

""I'll take care of this, Mr. Balfourt."" With a purposeful swish of the yellow tent covers, Tekishi emerged into the tranquil rocky landscape of Fuji-San. Other yellow tents circled around a large circular dip in the basalt. Usually, the said dip would be filled with eight to ten hired workers with white construction hats jackhammering into the rock. But today, the dip was empty. The jackhammers were all turned off, either lodged into the rock or laying by their sides. Their masters were of a similar motley appearance - some were laughing, some were muttering expressions of frustration, a slim few were conversing seriously amongst themselves, but they all held one thing in common - they were all holding their phones.

""Karoto!"" Tekishi swiftly strode towards a burly, tan worker with a cigarette that was seemingly permanently lodged between two dry lips. ""Why are your men not drilling?""

""I-I really don't know, Mr. Tekishi."" The foreman gave a sincere shrug. ""The thing is, all of my men received this mysterious call about this sea kingdom and surrender of the Japanese people... even I got it."" He held up his Nokia, which also displayed the mysterious phone number.

A hand suddenly appeared on Tekishi's shoulder, and Terence emerged beside him and addressed Karoto. ""Did... did everybody in the dig site get it?""

""Apparently so, Mr. Balfourt."" A buzz from the Nokia. ""Even the local park ranger, Mr. Nimobe, received it.""

Several more buzzes. ""...and almost every other park ranger in Fuji-San.""

The foreman, Terence, and Tekishi looked at each other uncertainly. Terence finally broke the ice.

""Karoto, your men have been drilling since six in the morning for four weeks. Perhaps they deserve a half-day off.""

Karoto slowly nodded, then summoned his men with a sharp clap and a loud call. Terence and Tekishi went back inside the tent. The tent was actually rather spacious, about fifteen feet across and eight feet tall. A PC, a locker table and several variations of the modern seismograph (connected by a labyrinthine hellhole of wires) were its contents. Terence offered Tekishi a stool, and the two sat down by the PC. 




<span class=""bb-b"">BREAKING NEWS




MYSTERIOUS CALL REACHES EVERY SINGLE PHONE NUMBER IN JAPAN</span>




The two scientists read on, intrigued. They clicked on a video, and an FNN news anchor accompanied a map of Japan, slowly turning green by the district. The map turned green every time a district reported its inhabitants receiving the strange call. Terence and Tekishi looked on, mystified, as all of Japan gradually turned green.

""What is this? A prank? A marketing scheme?""

""The things that the youth today can do with technology knows no bounds, Mr. Balfourt. Also, this would not be below the marketing standards of sprawling modern corporations. However, I have not heard of any fashion or toy line bearing the name 'Seatopia'....""

The two men stared in silence at the screen for a while. 

""...Mr. Balfourt, you don't think it could be... true? We <span class=""bb-i"">do</span> work with Monarch, after all.""

""Maybe. Maybe not. But what intrigues me most is <span class=""bb-i"">this</span>."" 

Terence minimized the window, and brought up another screen, showing the reading of a seismograph for one day - relatively calm. Terence clicked a button, and soon the whole screen showed four weeks' worth of seismograph readings. 

""Here."" Terence outlined a group of readings. ""For the past three and a half weeks, there's this been this steady 'boom' from underground. See? Slow but steady disruptions in the lines."" Terence outlined a reading. The line was interrupted by faint but steady vibrations. 

""It seems to have originated somewhere east, then slowly made its way here. It got closer to the surface. See? Lines grow taller every day."" Terence clicked on a pull down menu, and selected a button. ""...About a nine percent increase daily. Then, for the past two or three days, it stopped, probably somewhere near the magma vent of Fuji-San."" As Terence outlined a few readings toward the end that were relatively calm, he paused thoughtfully. ""..Like it was waiting. Waiting for something.""

Tekishi looked worried. ""Could it be... Godzilla? Or another kaiju?""

""Nonsense. The latest report from HQ proves that our Monster King is still sleeping under the Solomon Islands. But another kaiju..."" He stroked his chin thoughtfully.



""Maybe the King has another contender for his throne.""</div>"

MONDAY
11:10 AM, JAPAN STANDARD TIME</span>

The phone call still evaded explanation, but for the most part had dropped from public notice. The prevailing theory in the media was that it was some sort of elaborate prank, and most people had gone along with that- it beat the uncomfortable thought that perhaps it was a serious ultimatum. The government had promised a full investigation and tighter cybersecurity, the people had nodded and gone back to watching baseball over the long weekend. Monday morning came, and though there were a few empty desks in workplaces (normally occupied by the eccentric and the crackpots, good riddance to them), life carried on as normal. 

And yet some found themselves making the occasional anxious glance at the clock. . .

In his offices in Tokyo, Prime Minister Ueda sat down at his desk, as the last few minutes of the promised forty-eight hours melted away. Naturally, he had not announced a surrender- to do so would be political suicide. And so, he had carried on with his work, the usual Monday morning papers arriving. Even so, some sick dread in his stomach had made him clear the lines to Defense Minister Homma and Koyanagi, the Chair of the Public Safety Commission. General Onodera had the JSDF ready to go. If nothing else, this little scare was nothing more than a good test of Japan's mergency preparation protocols. If pressed, of course, Ueda would claim the mobilization was completely unrelated to the phone call. A coincidentally timed exercise.

He was already beginning to feel a little silly.

11:14 became 11:15. Ueda smiled as Watanabe handed him yet another document requiring a signature. There was nothing to worry about. He had been a foolish old man to be concerned.

<span class=""bb-i"">LAKE MASHU, HOKKAIDO</span>

The Ainu had called it “the Lake of the Devil”. Now, in summer, the water was often covered by a thick layer of fog, something of a local attraction- the fog was said to bring good luck.

But to those nature lovers idly enjoying the lake, it seemed to do the exact opposite. The fog had a biting odor and burned to the touch, like acid. The general unpleasantness was only reinforced by the thousands of dead fish washing up, more with each wave lapping at the shore. The few at the lake this Monday morning beat a hasty retreat as the smell and irritation grew more unbearable by the moment.

No one was present to see the two crimson oval eyes glaring malevolently through the mist, no one was present to see the enormous saucer-like creature rise slowly from the waters and begin a leisurely flight towards the city of Sapporo, plants wilting in its wake.

<span class=""bb-i"">MOUNT ASO, KUMAMOTO PREFECTURE</span>

No one could be sure where the sound was emanating from. Japan's most active volcano covered a huge area, littered with unexplored crevices and fissures reaching to the deepest reaches of the earth. Today, the entire range seemed to be filled with a strange sound, a deep and sonorous droning, so loud that people had to shout to be heard by those within arm's reach. 

It was only when the twelve forms rose from out of the several craters in the area that anyone realized the source of the noise- the beating of twenty-four blistered wings. Fingers were pointed, cameras deployed. The more sensible fled, an appropriate reaction to the sight of twelve praying mantids grouping in the air, each nearly sixty meters in length. 

As if acting on some unseen signal, the hovering insects immediately rocketed in one direction, flying in a tight formation. One dipped in altitude, gave a casual flick of the foreleg at the steel cables holding up the Mount Aso Ropeway before rejoining its brothers. It was enough to sever the sole means of support for a crowded tram car suspended hundreds of meters above the ground, condemning the thirty passengers inside to be crushed in the twisted wreckage when it landed. Those were the first to die that day.

The observant could see the giant insects were headed directly for Kumamoto City.

<span class=""bb-i"">UMEDA, OSAKA</span>

The attack truly began in the business district of Japan's second city. It was preceded by a rumbling, a shaking that was felt even in the tallest and most modern buildings. A few offices even began earthquake protocols, rehearsed diligently by the salarymen until they knew exactly what to do in an emergency. Those who survived would bless this foresight.

The street cracked and broke under the impetus of a gigantic spinning drill thrust upwards towards the sky. Bits of asphalt, vehicles, and even people were hurled aside by the spinning motion, smashing through the glass fronts of adjacent buildings. A bellowing screech could be heard from underground. 

As the drill extended ever further upwards, it became clear it was merely the extreme end of two arms, held over the insectoid head of a truly bizarre creature. Panic broke out, the ensuing stampede killing and injuring dozens even before the creature climbed out the hole it had made and shook the dust off. It was huge, a staggering 115 meters from toe to the tip of the star-shaped crest on its beetle head, covered in a thick exoskeleton in mottled yellow and black.

The creature clashed its two drill hands together, and the ringing of metal on metal echoed through the concrete canyons of Umeda.

And then it went to work.

The buildings that weren't simply smashed by the abomination lurching into them were lit ablaze by the red lightning emanating from the horn atop its head. The mandibles of its mouth opened, and a flaming jelly sprayed out, clinging to any surface or unfortunate person unlucky enough to be caught in the way. It clung and burned, resisting all efforts to extinguish it.

The massive office buildings were packed full of workers, most of whom were unable to evacuate in time. Thousands died in panic, fire, and rubble as the creature began its march.

<span class=""bb-i"">PORT OF KOBE, HYOGO</span>

A scant few miles to the west, a similar situation was unfolding in Kobe. Even as dockworkers pointed across the bay at the smoke beginning to rise over Osaka, something was speeding towards them- not from below, but from above.
It descended without warning, bladed feet sinking into the pavement at Merikin Park. Witnesses would have trouble describing it, the words “bird” and “robot” often being thrown about. With its steel hooks in lieu of hands, single malevolent red eye, and the buzzsaw in its abdomen, it bore no resemblance to any earthly creature.

The creature screeched, almost a giggle as it lurched towards the world-famous Port Tower. The saw began to rotate, cutting through the steel latticework of the tower in a shower of sparks. The Kobe Port Tower split and collapsed, falling into the water of the bay. Roaring in triumph, the creature turned its single eye on the buildings of downtown Kobe. With a look some survivors would later describe as a smile of anticipation, it began towards the unprepared city.

<span class=""bb-i"">NAHA, OKINAWA</span>

It was an idyllic, warm day in Okinawa, sunny and beautiful, the streets full of idle window shoppers, and the occasional wide-eyed American serviceman from the nearby military bases, drinking in the exotic sights of a foreign country. 

News of what else was occurring in the country was beginning to get out, more and more people were gathering around televisions and radios to keep abreast of events. Flights that normally would have continued on to the Home Islands were beginning to be grounded or turned back out of safety concerns- the city's seaside airport was much busier than usual accommodating the rerouted traffic. 

The roiling water in the water off the airport was accompanied by a sudden chill in the air- almost as if heat was being drawn to whatever was causing the disturbance. And then it rose, a huge cuttlefish with pale flesh and piercing yellow eyes, pulling itself ashore with its grasping tentacles. Panicking pilots attempted to take off without authorization or clearance, resulting in the runways being choked with taxiing planes. The giant cuttlefish tossed airplanes aside with impunity, leaving what it did not completely crush covered in a thick layer of frost. Air traffic controllers desperately tried to sort out the mess even as the monster smashed through hangers on a slow route to the terminal building. JASDF and USAF personnel from the military portion of the base rained machine gun fire onto the creature, but small arms did little against the dense rubbery flesh of the ninety-meter tall cuttlefish. The vital warplanes were unable to take off, and were smashed beneath tentacles even on the ground.

Leaving fire and ice in its wake, it moved on into densely packed Naha.

<span class=""bb-i"">KYUSHU UNIVERSITY, FUKUOKA</span>

“I believe it may be a Titanosaurus. The largest theropod on record,” the graduate student said thoughtfully, handing the binoculars back to the professor of paleontology. Around them, students and faculty raced about, climbing onto buses waiting to evacuate them from the city. The appearance of the gigantic biped standing in the harbor and the trumpeting elephant-like sound of its cry had sent the city into something like panic. These two, however, had seen an opportunity for academic advancement.

The older professor nodded his assent as he looked through the binoculars himself. “I think you may be correct, young lady. Look at that swan neck, the pointed snout- oh! And the webbed tail,” he said excitedly as it flicked out of the water. “105 meters tall, at a guess. This is incredible!” the man enthused as the creature began to step ashore. “I never dreamed I would see a living specimen with my own eyes!”

“Professor, perhaps we should go?” the student asked anxiously, watching yet another evacuation bus fill up and speed off.

“And miss this exciting find? Why, I should think. . .” The old man's voice trailed off as the Titanosaurus trumpeted and smashed its talons through the walls of the Fukuoka Dome. The crash of tearing concrete could be heard for miles as the dinosaur methodically began to tear the baseball stadium to rubble. In seconds, the roof collapsed inwards onto the field, and a dense cloud of dust rose. The elephant-like cry could be heard amidst the chaos, even as the smoke and dust obscured the monster itself.

“Yes,” the professor said after a moment. “Yes, perhaps we should in fact leave.”

<span class=""bb-i"">MOUNT FUJI</span>

Here, as elsewhere, the rumbling began from deep beneath the earth. In this part of the country, it was not uncommon, of course. But his was something new, something rhythmic and deliberate.

At the base of the mountain,, near Highway 180, the hard volcanic soil broke and sank in on itself. Eight madly waving claws broke free, stretching high into the air before setting down with a reverberating crash. A body was lifted free from the gaping hole, and eight black eyes glinted in the late morning sun.

The eight legs began pumping into a blur, and the enormous spider was running south at an unbelievable speed, comparable to a bullet train. 

At the summit, the only thing the rumbling could be compared to was a gigantic heartbeat. From out of the crater came something huge, larger than any of the other beasts attacking Japan. Despite its sheer size, it was ethereal, transparent, seeming to float softly upwards like a balloon. Hundreds of thick tendrils emerged from the main body, waving without direction in the air. It was a soft and gentle blue, almost indistinguishable from the sky as it hung delicately in the air over Mount Fuji. For a long moment it simply hung there, filling the area with a soft humming noise punctuated by a deep, regular throbbing. 

And then, as though floating on the breeze, the jellyfish-like creature began to fly, tendrils trailing in the air behind it. It was headed west. Towards Nagoya.

<span class=""bb-i"">CHIYODA, TOKYO</span>

“-eyewitnesses just called it a green shaggy ogre. Look here, Nippon News has footage of it destroying Okayama Castle with one blow-”

“-giant snapping turtle, sir, it capsized the Maizaru-Otaru ferry-”

“-twelve praying mantises. The media has named them Kamacuras, for some reason-”

“-a snake or Chinese dragon, reports are sketchy at best. 200 meters long. We have nearly seven hundred dead in Matsuyama-”

“-enormous lobster battering the support towers of the Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge-”

“-radar has something huge in flight headed for Sapporo-”

“-giant octopus in Kagoshima Bay-”

Ueda's head was spinning.

The Security Police had burst into his office, pistols drawn (for all the good it would do against a giant monster) and dragged him and Watanabe into this bunker, somewhere deep beneath Tokyo. His Cabinet was still being escorted to this “undisclosed location”, and in the meantime his staff seemed to be competing over who might give him the worst news. Most of the televisions seemed to be split between the carnage in Osaka and the same replayed footage of the huge new creature emerging from the crater of Fuji-san. Ueda removed his glasses, unable to bear the sights and sounds. His shaking hand reached up, loosened the knot of his tie.

“Pardon me for just one moment, please,” he said softly, edging his way through the crowd of uniformed JSDF personnel and staffers, his eyes intent on the men's room on the far side of the room. He willed himself to remain confident and in control until he was safely inside and the door locked behind him.

It was then that he allowed the tears to come to his eyes.</div>"

 ""Mr. Balfourt! Mr Balfourt!""
 Before Terence could reply, Tekishi had already practically dragged him back to the tent and pushed him down onto the stool.
 ""What is-""
On the screen in front of the geologist, the calm, straight line from Saturday and Sunday had erupted into an abrupt flurry of violent jolts. It was updating real time, getting louder and more intense by the second.
 ""Abnormal."" Terence looked at the screen for a full twenty seconds, then turned to Tekishi, who was nearly hyperventilating with excitement. ""Very abnormal. What do you think this is?""
 Before Tekishi could reply, Karoto burst into the tent. The cigarette had finally fallen from his lips, sweat forming on his furiously wrinkled brow. The sound of falling equipment and bewildered shouts could be heard from outside.
 ""Take cover! There's been an earthquake-""
  Suddenly, all three men were thrown to the ground by a violent shock. The line on the PC was most literally jolting out of the screen by now. Terence involuntarily grabbed onto the side of the table to pull himself up.

 <span class=""bb-b"">TOKYO-FUJI RAILWAY
 12:00 AM</span>

 ""Relax, Mr. Balfourt. That computer hit you hard.""
 The first thing that Terence felt was a bandage. When he looked at his hand, he saw a faint coating of blood.
 He steeled himself. He had felt worse in Afghanistan.
 He then felt his head resting against soft leather.  With further inspection, he saw Tekishi sitting down by his side.
 He then felt a strange moving sensation. ""Tekishi... are we on a train?""
 ""A Maglev, to be exact, Mr. Balfourt."" The young man smiled to himself at his vast store of knowledge. ""We are travelling at about four hundred and eighty kilometers an hour.""
 Terence suddenly became very aware of his surroundings. He turned to his right, and saw the blurring Japanese countryside speed by, and the nervous din of other passengers. When he turned to his left, he realized that every single seat in the train was occupied.
 ""Hold still, Mr. Balfourt."" Tekishi was dabbing his forehad with pufts of cotton stained with iodine.
 ""Where'd you get that?""
 ""From the car, Mr Balfourt.""
 ""Where are Karoto and the others?""
 ""Travelling in a convoy with the equipment on the road to Tokyo. Our car broke down at the last second, and Karoto suggested the train.""
 ""Ah."" Terence rested his head back again. This could turn out to be an ordinary day, after all. Suddenly, he took notice of the TV at the front of the aisle playing a live FNN broadcast. Terence looked on, intrigued, as a freakish robot bird methodically ripped apart an entire block of skyline in downtown Kobe.
 ""...Tekishi, what was the cause of the sudden seismic activity?""
 Tekishi silently indicated the TV again with his eyes. Terence looked on in horror at the recorded footage of the giant spider erupting out of the mountain, dangerously close to the dig site.
 ""So it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> a kaiju-""
Terence was interrupted with a dull thump on the front seat and the feeling of the train reversing. Terence felt a riveting pain explode in his brain, and there wasn't much he could do to keep from groaning in pain. Tekishi swiftly pulled him back to his position and got out his kit again.
 A young conductor came into the room, clearly terrified but masking it with a brace face. ""Ladies and gentlemen, there has been a problem. Part of the track has been... ah, destroyed by the recent tremors, and this train is temporarily stranded until government help comes.""
 Terence covered his ears to stop the immediate uproar and angry din of the passengers.
 ""I want a refund after this trip!""
 ""When will Tokyo send help?""
 ""I'm not waiting forever in here! I have a family to feed!""
 ""Let me out! Let me OUT!""
 All of a sudden, when Tekishi was just relaxing back in his seat, Terence felt a second lurch. The train was moving forward again. Some of the passengers relaxed, but the conductor looked like he had swallowed poison. He hastily ran back to the front of the train, leaving puddles of sweat in his wake.
 After a few seconds of confusion, all of the passengers reached a fatal conclusion: the train's engine had malfunctioned, and they were <span class=""bb-i"">heading towards the destroyed part of the track.</span>

 The last thing Terence heard was Tekishi's voice forcing him into the crash position, and the sickening groan of the entire train as his stomach lurched into oblivion.</div>"

""Was that a quake?"" asked General Onodera to a major.

""Not sure sir but..."" the major was interrupted by a junior officer. ""Sir! we have a report from the Fuji plains! Reports are sketchy but reports are coming in state that two beasts broke out of the mountain. One a giant spider and the other looked like a flying jelly fish.""
""A Flying Jellyfish?""
""That's the report sir"" the officer replied.
""Get the deputy commanders in the map room and all vital command staff I need a meeting to plan out attacks."" the general pointed at the junior officer. ""Hai!"" said the young man as he ran as fast as he could.
""Major tell the MP's at the gates that the base is on lockdown, report any activity spotted immediately and regular reports every two minutes.""
""Yes sir."" the major said as he got ready to leave the office.
""And major. call the ministry of defense and see what our orders are?""
<span class=""bb-b"">12 PM</span>

In the map room of the JGSDF Base at Zama the commanding officers we watching on tv's the shear inundation of information that was coming on.  
Several junior officers put up a white board of where there were kaiju reports, both from the news and police and local SDF forces. The list was as follows

On Ground
Beetle: Osaka
Robot-chicken: Kobe
Lobster: Attacking Kaikyo Bridge
Long-necked Dinosaur: Fukuoka
Giant Mantis: Kumamoto bound
Squid: Naha
Ogre: Okayama
Spider: Shizuoka
Snake: Matsuyama

At Sea:
Giant Octopus: Kagoshima Bay
Giant Turtle: Sea of Japan

Airborne:

Onodera did not think that it was possible for this many monsters to attack a nation at once. He was trying to figure out a plan but the problem was that it was too much information. His nation was being attacked at all sides, his people were suffering. Now he was getting frustrated with the lack of orders he was getting from Tokyo.
 
He broke the silence. ""Alright! Captain, get me Kantei. I will not be sidelined by bureaucratic fools. We are getting our asses kicked. It's time we kick some ass.""

The captain dialed the number of the Kantei.</div>"

12:20 PM</span>

Hirotoshi Ueda had already loosened his necktie and discarded his suit jacket. If this was any indication of the way things were going, he would be naked by dinnertime. 

“Yes, thank you, Mr. Ambassador. Any help the United Kingdom can give us would be greatly appreciated. The people of Japan will be thankful and indebted beyond description.” Ueda nodded gratefully and set the phone down on the receiver, looking up at his Foreign Secretary, Akiyama. The man had impressed Ueda in the last hour- even on the way to the bunker, he had been appealing to foreign powers for aid and assistance. So far, the United States, Australia, India, and New Zealand were already mustering troops to aid in the battles that were soon to be fought on Japanese soil. And that was just what Akiyama had managed to do from the backseat of a speeding car. Ueda himself had managed to wrangle promises from the British. Now history will remember my efficient begging technique, he thought bitterly. Hopefully his eyes were not too red and puffy from his breakdown earlier. 

He had no sooner set down the receiver than a soft voice behind him quietly said his name. He turned to see Koyanagi, his Public Safety Commissioner. “Sir, we have to discuss the refugee issue. Greater Tokyo is unaffected, naturally thousands will arrive here.”

“Of course we're unaffected,” Ueda said with a sigh. “It's a message to us in government. Surrender or else there will be more. As bad as it is now, will our resolve stand when we see additional attacks in Tottori, Nagano, Kitakyushu, Oita, Himeji, Matsue, Hiroshima, Wakayama?”

“Be that as it may, sir,” Koyanagi said delicately, doing her best to avoid the Prime Minister's anger and bitterness, “this is an issue we must prepare for.”

Ueda shook his head. “So many people are leaving Japan. Order the governors of Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa, and Saitama to reserve all empty hotel rooms and open all the parks for tents. That should at least accommodate a few.”

“But the wounded, sir,” Koyanagi pressed on. “Some of the biggest hospitals in the country are already inactive, sir, others are being abandoned in fear. The number of injured may actually outstrip the number of hospital beds in the country.”

“Then we'll need to set up field hospitals. And we'll need doctors, maybe even foreign ones. Akiyama,” he said to his closely listening chief diplomat. “Don't so no to anyone who offers assistance. The Cubans will undoubtedly call offering doctors and medicine, like they do when there's any kind of disaster anywhere. Tell them yes. Misery makes for strange bedfellows, eh?”

Ueda took a moment to look at the news coming in on the bunker's multiple televisions. It was the same, really- the creature the media called Manda rolling in the splinters of Dogo Onsen, the Kamacuras swarm wreaking havoc in the suburbs of Kumamoto, Osaka in flames, Fukuoka Tower toppling, Okayama Symphony Hall crumbling, the emergence of the two creatures from Mount Fuji. The news stations were simply cycling the same clips over and over again, without commentary- because really, what was there to be said? Of course, the only clip from the last hurried hour that had stuck with Ueda was not repeated. The one with the reporter in the helicopter over Kobe, the one who died screaming when the helicopter was hit by shrapnel and spiraled to the ground.

The telephone rang yet again, and the Prime Minister could barely suppress a sigh as he lifted the secure line.

“What? Yes, this is the Prime Minister. Yes, of course I'll speak to General Onodera.” Ueda almost felt himself straightening to attention, and was secretly glad someone was there to take responsibility away from him.

“General Onodera,” Ueda said formally once he was patched through. Confidence beganto flow through the Prime Minister as he took command. “Thank you for calling. I respect your initiative, you are the first JSDF official to contact me. I knew the CRF was our best hope. I have several instructions for you.

First, you are in military command for the duration of this crisis. All Ground, Air, Maritime, Coast Guard, and police personnel report directly to you from this moment onwards. Use them as you will.

Second, the Cabinet has agreed to call out all reserves in order to meet this threat. Foreign troops will soon be arriving to provide aid, I expect you to show them every courtesy and use them to their fullest capability.

Third, our first priority is to protect civilians. Moving them to safety is our immediate concern. As of right now, you have authorization to open fire on the jellyfish creature headed for Nagoya, codename Dogora; the giant spider in Shizuoka Prefecture, codename Kumonga; the acidic monster in Hokkaido, designated Hedorah; and the giant insects in Kumamoto, codename Kamacuras. For all other kaiju, attacks will wait until confirmation of the evacuation of all civilians in the immediate area or their confirmed movement into uninhabited land.”

In a few short sentences, Ueda had given the JSDF the most power they had held since WWII. he stayed on the line, waiting for a response as he watched yet another recap of Oodako pulling container ships underwater in Kagoshima.

“We brought you all this way just for this?” Corporal Tanner asked, shifting aside his M4 carbine to light a cigarette. “This better be pretty fucking good.”

“Give her a chance, Corporal,” Lieutenant Young said sharply. The young officer, a long way from his native Kentucky, shifted uneasily. “Those orders were sealed since the 1960s. In case of attack by giant monster, send military escort with current member of Azumi family. Our government knows what its doing.” In truth, Young didn't feel as confident as he tried to appear. His orders came from a yellowing envelope locked up in a desk drawer for fifty years, how much could they possibly mean?

And yet, when his CO had come to him with the assignment, Young didn't hesitate. Grab the oldest living Azumi, escort him or her to Shuri Castle. It had been a her. Most definitely a her, few men in the platoon could help themselves from at least a good up-and-down stare.

Young would much rather be on the front, fighting what the locals were beginning to call Gezora. But this mission, whatever it was, would be useful. At least, that's what he kept telling himself as he watched Gezora from a distance, smashing more buildings into dust. The young woman seemed to be concerned with little more than putting a jade statuette onto a forgotten little alcove of the castle, then kneeling down in the middle of the courtyard. Rifles and rocket launchers raised, the Marines couldn't help but notice the comely young woman. . . start to sing a <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iXGMp7ZkF0"">song</a>, apparently directed at a particularly large hill just outside the city. 

Well, Young conceded, maybe these orders were a complete waste of time.

At least, he kept thinking that until the hill started to split open, revealing a large pair of ruby-red eyes.</div>"

Hirotoshi Ueda had already loosened his necktie and discarded his suit jacket. If this was any indication of the way things were going, he would be naked by dinnertime. 

“Yes, thank you, Mr. Ambassador. Any help the United Kingdom can give us would be greatly appreciated. The people of Japan will be thankful and indebted beyond description.” Ueda nodded gratefully and set the phone down on the receiver, looking up at his Foreign Secretary, Akiyama. The man had impressed Ueda in the last hour- even on the way to the bunker, he had been appealing to foreign powers for aid and assistance. So far, the United States, Australia, India, and New Zealand were already mustering troops to aid in the battles that were soon to be fought on Japanese soil. And that was just what Akiyama had managed to do from the backseat of a speeding car. Ueda himself had managed to wrangle promises from the British. Now history will remember my efficient begging technique, he thought bitterly. Hopefully his eyes were not too red and puffy from his breakdown earlier. 

He had no sooner set down the receiver than a soft voice behind him quietly said his name. He turned to see Koyanagi, his Public Safety Commissioner. “Sir, we have to discuss the refugee issue. Greater Tokyo is unaffected, naturally thousands will arrive here.”

“Of course we're unaffected,” Ueda said with a sigh. “It's a message to us in government. Surrender or else there will be more. As bad as it is now, will our resolve stand when we see additional attacks in Tottori, Nagano, Kitakyushu, Oita, Himeji, Matsue, Hiroshima, Wakayama?”

“Be that as it may, sir,” Koyanagi said delicately, doing her best to avoid the Prime Minister's anger and bitterness, “this is an issue we must prepare for.”

22270,Japan Under Siege- A Godzilla RP,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76438-japan-under-siege-a-godzilla-rp,['Casual'],2015-02-10 02:13:00,Polyphemus,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-i"">2014 was only the beginning. Where before only a handful of scientists and researchers knew the truth, there was no longer any way of hiding it, not with Honolulu, Las Vegas, and San Francisco in ruins. The running battle between Godzilla and the MUTOs had left thousands dead and the public in a state approaching hysteria. The press, the public, and the politicians were demanding something be done. 

The job fell to Monarch, a multinational organization dedicated to the study and monitoring of massive creatures like Godzilla. Where previously Monarch had been critically underfunded and understaffed, now major governments are tripping over themselves to provide money and manpower. Monarch is now chasing down rumors and sightings of kaiju all over the globe, even giving serious examination to mythology and folklore. However, as of June of 2016, Godzilla is the only kaiju whose existence is a confirmed and verifiable fact. Currently, the King of the Monsters is dormant, enjoying a peaceful underwater slumber off the Solomon Islands, unaware of the military and scientific vessels keeping a reverent and fearful vigil above him. 

The panic is slowly beginning to die down, rebuilding has begun in earnest. It has been two long years since the rampages in the US. The optimistic are beginning to think the horror of kaiju attacks will never be repeated.

Soon, however, they will be proven tragically wrong.</span>


It is now June of 2016, two years after the events of the Legendary Pictures film <span class=""bb-i"">Godzilla.</span> While the possibility of kaiju attacks is taken extremely seriously and Monarch has been trying to chase down all possible leads, no one has confirmed the existence of any creature aside from the Big G himself. 

Our story is set in Japan, which you have probably guessed is (spoilers) about to face attack by monsters. I would like to explore this at a human level, though there will be plenty of opportunities for military or monster action, especially if you choose to play a soldier or Monarch kaiju specialist. I intend for this RP to link the continuity of the Legendary film with the Toho films, so any creature is fair game. I will permit player-created kaiju, provided they're not overpowered. While you are playing as humans first and kaiju second, if you manage to engineer a confrontation between kaiju, I will let you take the driver's seat for whichever monster you're connected to.

This RP will be dark in tone, death and destruction abound. You will be in the middle of huge disasters, there is a good chance of getting killed.

Character skeletons will be available under the Characters tab.

It is a built in wingsuit and parachute, and the fabric acts as a natural camouflage.

Short Bio: William had been an orphan for his whole life, being bullied and mistreated by nearly everyone he knew. That was until the day that he helped Green Arrow save his best friend Molly- and save Green Arrow in the process -where his life changed soon after. He found himself adopted by Oliver Queen, thrown into a life he learned to love, one of luxury and models and money. And he felt like he didn't fit in. When he caught his father in full costume, however, his training began, and Will finally found his place in his new life. He now leads the Young Justice team as Blue Arrow. He refuses to share his identity with his team, and uses his money to fund them. Not even his new girlfriend knows he's a billionaire with a very expensive hobby.

Alias: Orb Weaver

Age: 19

Personality: A skilled puppeteer and weaver of lies, it's hard to figure exactly what kind of person Jacque is. He's extremely good at faking emotion and is known to be rather manipulative, using his feminine appearance, silver tongue, and a loose set of morals to get whatever he wants. Jacque generally prefers to allow others to do the dirty work for him, though he's not opposed to getting his hands dirty if need be. That being said, he's smart enough to run rather than fight if he gets the chance. As far as villains go, Jacque is a bit unique in that despite being a skilled liar, he strongly believes in honoring agreements, and will carry a grudge against a deal breaker to the grave. He bears no animosity towards heroes and will even work with them if they simply ask, though he'll expect some sort of favor in return at a later date.


Powers: Slightly below peak human physical condition, 180 I.Q.

Abilities: Adept at hacking and deception, black belt in Silat martial arts

Hero Or Villain: Villain  

Appearance: <a href=""http://wyv1.deviantart.com/art/Brain-Dev-95235951"">Click me</a>

Crush: None

Relationship Status: None 

Short Bio: As far as origins go Jacque's tale isn't particularly flashy. He's was raised in a normal neighborhood by normal parents, with the only variation between his life and your average child's being his education. Being considered a genius thanks to his I.Q., Jacque was able to blaze through his grade school years and even receive an associates degree in computer programming by the time he reached sixteen. Unfortunately for Jacque, it all bored him. The day to day humdrum of normal life was suffocating and beyond unbearable for the boy. His first crime was small: Hack a small budding company and sap them of their funds. From there the crimes escalated through the years as he finished college, and by nineteen he was taking jobs from shadier companies to technologically cripple the competition and assist in the orchestration of robberies or espionage by mobsters and other unsavory sorts of people.

Other: He keeps a pet false water cobra named Remi and lives in a two bedroom flat in the downtown area. <span class=""bb-b"">We are YOUNG</span>

<font color=""red"">Strange. Raven is a very strange individual and none can guess what ever goes through his mind. One could also call him bipolar, going from angry to happy to sad all in the span of a few seconds. In some cases though he can be very emotionless and doesn't really care about the feelings of others. He also becomes bored very easily. If you hold no interest over him he won’t give you the time of day but if you do happen to catch his fancy then you’ll wish you were dead just to be rid of him. He also likes meddling with people and generally just causing chaos because he finds it funny. He is actually very dangerous when bored because he will go to great lengths for entertainment. Was it mentioned that he's also slightly insane? Because he is. He is constantly saying he hears voices and he holds conversations with himself and his dolls frequently.</font>

<font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span></span></font>
<font color=""red"">Not much is known about Raven. He was abandoned at the steps of an orphanage when he was but an infant. Growing up he was always picked and bullied by the other kids for being weak. The owner of the orphanage did nothing to stop the abuse and so Raven was left to fend for himself. He wasn’t strong physically wise but he was very smart and so eventually he learned how to beat the other kids at their own game. He began looking at life like it was all just a game and that. He began acting out when he got bored and soon he began doing things that he really shouldn’t like stealing things or breaking them. He found that he enjoyed doing bad things, it was <span class=""bb-i"">fun</span>.</font>
<font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses/Fears</span></span></font>
<font color=""red"">His greatest fear is that he will lose his control and then the puppeteer will become the puppet. His weakness is that he doesn’t know when to quite once something has captured his interest. He becomes so involved that he more often than not leaves himself vulnerable.</font>
<font color=""gold""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Special Quirks / Attributes / Traits</span></span></font>
<font color=""red"">He tends to talk through the puppets he creates and he has names for all of them. Also, pocky. He is absolutely addicted to pocky. He always keeps an innumerable amount of boxes in his pocket and he is always seen with a stick in his mouth. Also, he does not liked physical contact with <span class=""bb-i"">anyone</span>.

<font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></font> Casan comes from a very ordered society. Everyone has their place and for Casan it was to be a warrior. He is calm, reserved, and follows orders. While not a leader if the situation requires he will step up. 

<font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span></font> All Kartathans have the inborn ability to change their appearance due to their highly adaptive physiology. They are able to change into whatever form they desire as long as it is a living organism. However it is not a perfect copy, the common result of a shapeshift are the eyes which do not have pupils. Another evolutionary gift of the Kartathans is their ability to produce a venom that can be paralytic or fatal. The paralytic variation lasts for a few hours while the fatal counterpart can kill in a matter of minutes. These poisons can be secreted through a Kartathans claws or laced onto needles that can be fired from the mouth.

<font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">Crush:</span></font> Relationship Status: No interest in humans

<font color=""yellow""><span class=""bb-b"">Short Bio:</span></font> From the planet Kartath, Casan'Vralcar is of a race of amorphous humanoids. The Kartathans' civilization is a complex one, they are a series of nomadic tribes that wander the expansive desert planet in search of food, shelter, and conquest. They war with each other quite often and such a harsh and strict life has created a harsh and strict people. The Kartathans technology has always been centered around weapons and while they have space age grade weapons everything else is rather primitive. Every member of the tribe has role in the tribe and cannot deviate from that role. Those that do are outcasts and often killed. Casan was a soldier for his tribe and during a mission to capture enemy weapons he discovered that they had been developing advanced ways of travel. A teleportation device meant to be used as troop transport across the planet. When his team attempted to destroy it the result was quite the opposite. The device malfunctioned, staying open long enough to suck Casan through before exploding killing the rest of his team. The teleportation device landed him on Earth where he eventually was contacted by Young Justice not only to one day be an emissary if his race to one day arrive on earth but to also aid in the planet's defense against evil as was his original role back on Kartath.

Name: The Jester

Age: ?

Personality: Maniacal mood swings with a particularly dark outlook. Commanding.

Powers: It is unknown what the chemical cocktail he was submerged in has done to him, but Jester appears to have extreme durability, enhanced reflexes and senses, and even immunity to all forms of toxins and chemicals. His strength appears to have increased as well, making him a rather formidable opponent.

Abilities: Jester has created so many gadgets that he keeps hidden up his sleeve that it's unknown just what he's prepared for. His favorites appear to be his gloves, made to unleash one million volts of electricity for as long as he seems to please, his guns, which include a massive hand cannon, a pair of semi automatic handguns, and a modified revolver of his creation that fires gas canisters with extreme force. Lastly, he is well known for his lethally sharp hook and chain, which is literally hidden in his sleeve, and is used for a multitude of things, even grappling. The lethal Laughing Gas he carries has no known cure.

Hero Or Villain: Villain

Crush: None

Relationship Status:None

Short Bio: It is unknown where this dangerous psychopath originated, nor how he is funded or able to do the things he does. Many claim he was trained by the Joker himself in secret, which both will happily proclaim or deny on a whim. He is ruthless and deceiving, and completely unpredictable. Heroes make him a priority on sight, and for good reason.

Short Bio: There is a prophesy that a child born of an ancient bloodline of warlocks would bring about the apocalypse and plunge the world into chaos as the hand of doom. The ancient magical tome bound in human flesh that contained passages of the prophesy said that the child would have the mark of chaos upon his head and he would have great power. This child was Charles and his family has sired powerful warlocks for over three thousand years. Not knowing of the prophesy, Charles grew believing to be ordinary warlock with the power of necromancy, but eventually he discovered his mighty chaos magic powers. His family once they realized that Charles could be the key to incredible power sought to control him. Many of his family members have had run ins with the costumed heroes of the DC universe.

His family tried to turn him as evil as possible, but through some strange twist of fate Charles never wanted to become evil and cause the world's destruction, but his family and destiny seemed to tell him otherwise. Their teaching and cruelty to him turned him into a dark individual and he began to fall into darkness, but eventually he was able to free himself of his family but their cruelty had tainted his soul. He was still against evil, but his view on life was extremely dark and even though he wanted to do right, he was feared by those of the powers of light for what he was. 

He didn't blame them, he was the bringer of doom and destruction. After he was free of his family, Charles sought to join the hero community hoping that maybe he could find a way to prevent himself from being completely corrupted and bring about the apocalypse. He took the name Warlock and began fighting crime with his great magical powers. His exploits eventually caught the attention of Dr Fate and the sorcerer supreme decided that it would be best to monitor the teen's powers by having him join a team of individuals his age. He was introduced to the team Young Justice and is now an active member of the team, but he is a little standoffish with his teammates.

It was during a terrorist bombing that Arron really learned about right and wrong and what it meant to give your life for those around you. During the metropolitan train bombing one brave young soul inspired others to do something for their fellow man, one brave young man who had no special gifts or powers, threw himself into the burning wreckage over and over, appearing each time with more survivors in his arms, his bold and selfless actions struck the hearts of the people watching and of many of the survivors who had escaped unharmed themselves, in a matter of minutes Arron McCall a blonde teen born and raised in metropolis had formed an entire system and managed with the help of his fellow man to empty the destroyed train with hardly any casualties.

It was soon after this that his bravery and selflessness were noticed by one far greater than the press, The Wizard's spirit remained and Shazam granted new powers to a new word user one who would guide people from the darkness with the light of his just and kind actions, one who would stand against all odds for the lives of those around him, ""Arron McCall...Morningstar!""

Personally speaking, I rather like the character concept you came up with. Sadly I lack the power of a GM or Co-Gm, however I can still vouch for you by pointing out that although Warlock is magically adept, you've stated that he's not very physically domineering. Enough to get by if need be yes, but it seems as though that's as far as you intended it to go, of course I could just be making assumptions. The idea of him being a harbinger of doom that wants to do good is a tad cliche, but can be refreshing if done right, i.e. less angst and gloom and more behaving like a human being who can see what he can become and is desperately trying to not be what others expect. It would be reasonable to assume that the conflicting nature residing within Warlock paired with the fact that Dr.Fate is watching over him would mean that he's not going to go haphazardly flinging his powers about at will. Perhaps you could have a charge up and cool down time for some of your more dangerous spells or maybe a limit to how much you can dish out per a set period of time, but outside of that I see a fairly balanced and potentially interesting character.</div>"

Name: Overlord Donald Levy
Alias: Overlord
Age: 19 
Personality: Absolutely power mad. He comes from a place where he was indisputably the most powerful being of all and has become arrogant because of it. He sees everyone as beneath him and unworthy of his attention, with the exception of one.
Powers: He can project and absorb electricity. He can also fly if he projects enough electricity to propel himself.
Abilities: A military genius, but no formal training in fighting.
Hero Or Villian: Villian
Crush: The only thing he'll be crushing, is your skull between his hands.
Relationship Status: Single
Short Bio: Overlord comes from an alternate dimension. In this universe, he had conquered the entire world and became ruler over all. Then, during a gladiatorial match he had been watching, he was attacked by a stranger in the stands. After an extremely destructive fight, Overlord walked away the victor. He discovered though, after unmasking his would-be assassin, that his attacker was a version of himself from another universe. Overlord became crazed with the idea of finding all counterparts of himself from every dimension and killing them, for he fears that the only one who can defeat him in combat is himself. Let's hope he's wrong.
Other: This alternate universe version of Overlord that I mentioned MIGHT end up being the hero I choose whenever we have enough villains that I can make a hero. I'm still not completely decided, though.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Pariah loves what she does. She sees it as a hunt and relishes chasing after her quarry. While supervillains are her usual targets, heroes are fair game if they get in her way..or if she just feels like taking you. Surprisingly hunting metas isn't her only interest, she lives an alternate life as a tattoo artist. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span> Nomad does not have any inborn powers but she does have access to advanced technology thanks to her creators in the D.M.A. with her main arsenal being comprised of a hard-light shield, sword, and a SWC-Volt Rifle. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Enhanced speed, strength, regenerative healing factor, and mastery of most firearms

<span class=""bb-b"">Hero Or Villian:</span> Neutral 

<span class=""bb-b"">Short Bio:</span> The Department of Metahuman Affairs, or D.M.A. for short, at an unknown time launched Project Wardens. It was an effort to create an army of lab grown superhumans who would be used as peacekeepers against any hostile metahuman. These agents would be stationed around the world so as to be first responders to whatever situation was unfolding if necessary. These superhumans are not superpowered or clones. They are humans but genetically augmented to be faster, stronger, and capable in combat against metahumans. However this program proved to be a failure as the first generation of ""Wardens"" showed signs of mental instability. Most went insane within weeks of being out of the genesis chamber and were executed, those that didn't were cold, calculating, killing machines that the D.M.A. found unsatisfactory as they wanted to look good in the eyes of the public. The Generation 1 Wardens were discharged and left to their own devices as they were replaced by the more human Warden II's. 

Pariah was the last Warden I to be created before their production was ended. She was one of the lucky ones not to be insane or emotionally void. However this did not mean she was normal. Unlike every other Warden, first or second generation, she showed insubordination and a general disinterest in her original purpose. She was the only Warden on record to show signs of actual free will. Unfortunately for the D.M.A. they decided she'd be best as a mobile agent, instead of being stationed in one place she'd be sent on assignments around the globe. This exposure to the world revealed in her eyes the real cause of Earth's problems-Metahumans. Pariah went AWOL and began her crusade against all metahumans regardless of their alignment, unfortunately for metahumans being captured by the Pariah did not mean death but imprisonment. Pariah has a hideout where she holds her metahuman prisoners to either be experimented on or tortured for information.

""Venator"" Hunter

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>
19

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Hunter can be summed up in one simple little word: Hate. He hates how the world works, he hates heroes and their unrealistic views on life, he even hates himself, disgusted with his ugly appearance and rather dull powers. This pure and unrelenting hate usually just cycles around underneath his surface, until it all bursts out at once. It takes the form of frenzied bursts of psychotic brutality on anyone who happens to be unfortunate enough to be nearby. This can be rather disadvantageous, as he sometimes picks opponents he cannot hope to win against. He hates his personality, he hates his appearance, he hates the world, and he hates that he hates everything.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span>
Hunter has the odd ability to morph his body into a more mechanical/metal form. Although he usually only transforms his arms, he is capable of doing the same to his entire body. That said, the more of his body he changes, the greater energy drain he has. While he can keep his arms in his altered state near indefinitely, he can only keep a hold of a full-body transformation for a few minutes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span>
While Hunter is a vicious combatant, he does not seem to have any formal training in any form of martial arts. Rather, he relies on his brute strength to give him the advantage over his opponents. Many times, the fight is over as soon as he can grab his opponent. Other than that, he has no other notable abilities.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hero Or Villain:</span>
Villain

<span class=""bb-b"">Crush:</span>
If he had a crush, he'd hate them for it and hate himself even more for falling for them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Relationship Status:</span>
Hating everyone around him

<span class=""bb-b"">Short Bio:</span>
Not much is known about Hunter's past. This is due to two reasons: He doesn't care to remember, and he doesn't see the need to tell anyone even if he somehow does. Another very real possibility is that if he knew his past, he'd likely hate it.

And if that requires her to act extremely outgoing and friendly then she cannot stop herself.

Powers: White magic - It can be used in a variety of different ways but the most common are for defensive purposes. Healing, barrier projection, and short range teleportation. A passive ability she has is to sense danger nearby. It is not exact but merely alerts her of danger. Sarah is still developing offensive uses but to date she can use her magic to temporarily grant herself strength and speed boosts as well as launch what appear to be imbued feathers from her own wings as bolts. Obviously her wings give her flight.

Abilities: Decent at street fighting. Her new form is a lot more athletic than her past one but does not possess any inherent superhuman skills.

Hero Or Villian: Hero (Because she has to be)

Crush: She still has a small crush on her old boyfriend from the gang. Her whole life has been turned upside down so she had to let him go.

Relationship Status: Single 

Short Bio: Growing up in a bad side of town made life pretty tough. Street smarts were a must but it was only a matter of time before Sarah fell in with a bad crowd. The things they did were small time, petty theft and psudo-terf wars. Somebody somewhere must have been desperate because her little gang got recruited for a big job knocking off a local museum. The payoff was just too good to pass up and they would even be provided the equipment and plans to pull it off. The reality was that the people who wanted the loot needed as much distance from the crime as possible. Getting a bunch of clueless kids to do it for them made that easy.

Things went without a hitch. Everyone got out with the loot, some weird broken stone rune. Lagging behind with the loot Sarah missed the rondevu with their employer long enough to avoid getting nabbed like the rest of her gang. She did however see what happened and got away. Word quickly reached her that if the goods were not brought like promised that her friends would be killed. Things were getting too real for Sarah to deal with and she had no idea what to do. These guys clearly did not hold up to their word. What could be so important about a busted up old rock? It sort of looked like a puzzle though. Needing a break from the stress she busied herself assembling the pieces. In the back of her mind though she wanted to help her friends and it brought her back to things her mother used to tell her about guardian angels. Her friends could definitely use one now. Putting in the last piece her silent wish was granted and her days as Guardian Angel began.

Sarah's new found power came with an unusual catch. The normally rough and difficult to work with girl would spin on a dime whenever danger or something bad happened. What's more those situations were not something she could ignore. If she could help then whether she really wanted to or not she was going to help. That was probably why her reputation rose so quickly over the last year. It was almost a sixth sense and she would be there to save people. When approached by the Young Justice she immediately said yes. Those that have had the chance to really get to know here (which are very few) know that she really didn't want to join. Though she was starting to warm up to the idea many of her actions are dictated by her strange alter ego.

Name: Don Levy

Alias: Mimic

Age: 19

Personality: Mimic hasn't had the best life, and as such has become a bit of a cynic. Even so, he still feels the desire to help those in need and appreciates it when people prove his pessimistic views wrong. 

Powers: Unlike his counterpart, Overlord, Mimic has a different ability. He has the power of Ability Replication. This means that any living thing he comes into physical contact with, he gains any non-human ability from them. An example would be if he touched a dog he would gain a dog's sense of smell, or if he touched an ant he would be able to lift 100 times his own bodyweight just like an ant. His powers aren't just for animals though. If he were to touch another superhuman, he would gain that superhuman's powers as well, with the exception of superhumans whose abilities are magic-based. Another limitation is that he can only retain one ability at a time, losing the previous power each time he gains a new one.

Such was the pattern with the rest of his body as if it was doing a natural diagnosis of itself. Once he was convinced of his corporal integrity he sat up out of his bed,which was more like a semi-artificial cacoon made of metals and organic material, and touched his biosuit which hung on the wall across from his bed. Upon making contact the biosuit latched itself onto Casan like a symbiotic organism and made it way up the arm and quickly encompassing his entire body. He kneeled and said a brief prayer to his gods before changing his shape to his frequented human form. The process was slow as it was the first of the day, the bones could be heard shifting along with the flesh as they moved into place to fit the skeletal frame of human. His skin tone changed from a grey to slightly tan while it's texture which was originally like the leathery hide of a snake became soft and smooth. Of course the only flaw was the eyes which lacked color but it was acceptable.

He exited his room and headed to the central monitors which upon his arrival was already being used by Blue Arrow and Wonder Girl. He walked over to the two and with a serene tone greeted them, ""Good morning Blue Arrow, Wonder Girl. I trust you both slept well?"" His face could not be seen as it was hidden behind the helmet of the biosuit but inside the reason for his calm demeanor was he was performing a diagnostic on the suits functions. Despite it being organic it was also partially artificial, the only thing from his home planet that came with him. He never did understand how these suits were made as that was the job of their military scientists and not the actual soldier whose only need was to know their suit was at maximum efficiency.</div>"

""Sure, I guess I wouldn't mind."" He was glad that Cassie was first to greet him. He had always been pretty awkward around women, and she was definitely no exception. Cassie was a bit upfront on her intentions to date him, which he didn't really mind. It was his first relationship in a few years, and she was very sweet. Although, he thought, I better never make her angry...

Arrow would take a bite of the banana, looking at her for a moment with his bright green/gold eyes, before going back to the monitor. ""Business seems slow today. Which isn't a bad thing. I've got the sonic jet ready for any missions we have today. Sleep well?"" He would ask. Shortly after, he would hear Casan approaching, having memorized the sound of his boots and his stride. ""Good morning to you too, Casan. I slept decently for a few hours. Crime never sleeps though, so I pulled a long night in Star City stopping street crimes. I hope you had a better rest than I.""</div>"

I studied their fighting techniques along with the troop movements in hopes that we may execute something of the sort-"", Casan stopped himself realizing this probably was not normal human custom to speak of ancestor memories. That and the topic itself was probably not appropriate for morning conversation. ""I slept quite well thank you"", he said before turning his attention to a terminal. Accessing it he searched for any reports of anomalies similar to his space jump which landed him on earth. He made it a habit of checking daily in case more of his kind ended up here he could give them aid and hopefully a place to stay and serve. As usual there was nothing which for a moment gave Casan a feeling of isolation but was quickly replaced with the need to eat. ""If you need me I will be in the kitchen"", he held himself back from declaring what nutrients his body was in need of, despite years of living on earth he still had much to learn of these humans...but he was making progress. 

Once in the kitchen the freak show began. Casan shifted to his actual self and scoured the kitchen for something to eat before settling for an entire cooked chicken. He took a moment to savor the smell after warming it up before opening his mouth to reveal the horrific maw of teeth that filled his mouth which opened in segments like the eggs from <span class=""bb-i"">Alien</span> he picked up the entire chicken and forced it into his mouth where the hundreds of teeth began to shred and tear at the meat until it was mush which he gulped all at once.</div>"

Perhaps because he was one of the few that couldn't fly. ""Psh. I don't need those jets. I can do fine on my own when I am flying."" she said flipping her hair and hugging Blue Arrow from behind, her arms wrapped around his neck. ""I slept good, actual-.."" she suddenly heard someone coming to the room, it was Casan. A good friend of hers and a very good team mate. ""Hey Casan. And yes.. I did sleep good. Thanks for asking, haha. How about you?"" Wonder girl said looking at the monitors. ""Alright. If there isn't much trouble going on..! Why don't we go outside and have some ice cream or something?""

""It is a beautiful day outside!"" the happy girl said spinning around, gracefully. ""Besides. I never tasted ice cream before."" And then she noticed Casan walking away from them and into the kitchen. ""Awww, wait up! Let's go get some ice cream or something!"" she called out but he already has left.</div>"

He hated not having anything to do and often made sure there was a task to be done or anything to keep him busy. Luckily he heard Cassie suggest going to get ice cream, he wasn't particularly in the mood but anything to keep himself busy was good. ""That sounds like a great idea, that is, if it is alright with you Blue Arrow"", Kartathan customs never left Casan. He always felt the urge to ask his superiors for permission but only recently has he slowly inching away from doing so.

This scene was hardly something new in such an establishment considering the fact that free wifi was offered, however unlike most of the other patrons, Jacque wasn't simply sitting there trying to look important and just browsing social networks or watching videos. The man uncrossed his legs and recrossed them in the opposite direction as he put the finishing touches on a new computer virus he had designed while waiting for the payment for the last job he'd done to go through. There was a soft pinging sound in his headphones, momentarily interrupting the music he was listening to, though he hardly minded considering what the ping meant. He brought up his email with a few types and smirked at the new message, denoting his payment for his services. '<span class=""bb-i"">That's a lot of zeroes.</span>' He mused as his sipped his coffee and smirked.

He was pretty much used to hearing the strange things that came out of Casan's mind... as well as the sounds that came from the kitchen. He would sit idly by and listen to Cassie go on about ice cream. And this was the dilemma. He can't just walk around in costume, it would attract attention, especially since even in civilian form it lacked a mask. That was when he had an idea, slowly forming in his head. 

""If we're going to go out, then I'll have to head home really fast first."" He would say as he swiveled his chair to face her. ""Won't take me long with the teleportation system."" He would say with a smile. ""Of course, that means I'll have to be gone for a good ten minutes.""</div>"

Arron smiled a bright smile as he slowed his speed and dropped down to fly in between the buildings of the city waving and smiling at the people he passed who called up to him with joy, ""Morningstar!"" Arron stopped and looked around he had gotten up early like he did every single morning and went on patrol. That's when he heard sirens and took off at full speed coming to rest outside of a bank that police officers were beginning to form a barrier around, ""What seems to be the problem officer?"" The cop looked up with a smile at Morningstar, ""boy am I glad to see you...we got two armed gunmen three hostages...the gunmen are threatening to kill them...and they have themselves away from the windows to prevent us from handling them with a sniper."" Morningstar nodded, ""No worries...I'll go talk to them."" morningstar stepped through the doorway and into the building before calling out, ""Hey there...just want to talk...nobody needs to get hurt here guys."" He heard a scared and almost manic voice call back out, ""Stay back or I'll shoot!"" Morningstar looked around the room and found his vantage point using the large reflectors around the building and without any warning Morningstar used his power to pull electricity from a computer next to one of the gunmen shocking him in the leg causing him to turn away and the moment he did he simply vanished, the other gunman turned his gun back towards the hostages only to come face to face with a very large blonde haired hero standing between them with a smile, ""Now...let's come quietly...I think this mornings seen enough strife.""

Pools of blood were everywhere as fire rained down from the sky and he heard the screams of people being butchered by savage beasts. Charles saw terrible monsters roam the land, hunting down victims and tearing them apart. 

He then awoke in a sweat, another dream of destruction and gore. He had these almost regularly and he wondered if this was a sign of the prophesy coming true. He quickly got dressed and looked around for his teammates inside the base. Charles felt the chaoic magic within him trying to force itself out in destructive ways, but he was able to keep it at bay thanks to his iron will, but it was a hard thing to achieve when it felt like he was at war with himself. He soon came upon the rest of the Young Justice team and he didn't wave or smile like some of them, he just did a polite greetings.

""good morning, I trust your dreams weren't as unpleasant as mine"" he said to them as it seemed to get a little darker and colder in the room while he talked, his magic tended to do that.</div>"

They were lean, slender limbs and the body they were connected to was reclining on top of the roof. Soft black locks blew gently in the breeze that danced by, sending the strands into glowing violet eyes stared up at the blue sky while rose red lips were turned up in a lopsided grin. Small objects circled above the figure, revealing to be dolls of different colors, make, and shapes. They floated as if suspended on an invisible string, bobbing in the air as some dipped closer to the person laying on the ground before spiraling back into the air. One doll in particular dived down to hover next Raven’s face. <font color=""violet"">”Ne, Mary, what are we going to do today?”</font> Raven murmured, amethyst eyes flickering to rest on the creepy doll. 

Mary jolted, arms waving. <font color=""lightblue"">”We could always go mess with those goody-goody heroes.”</font> The voice that spoke was high in pitch and one could almost believe the doll had actual spoken if it had not been for the fact that Raven’s lips had moved when Mary ‘answered’. Said boy sat up, head tilting to the side. <font color=""violet"">”That sounds like a great idea, I haven’t messed with them today yet!”</font> Raven stood and flung a hand out to a concrete slab. Glowing yellow threads shot out from his fingers and wrapped tightly around the slab. Raven walked to edge of the building and stood right on the lip. Standing, the wind was stronger now and wiped his midnight locks about. The long overcoat he wore was fluttering behind him. 

He grinned and tipped forward, feet leaving the ground as he began to free-fall. The strings then tightened and he began swinging high above the city, dolls trailing in his wake.</div>"

It shall fall, just like every other.""</span> Then, in an instant, he was gone. Traveling at lightning fast speeds towards the nearest sign of civilization he saw. ""You there. Peasant. Where can I find Donald Levy? He will most likely have a similar appearance to myself,"" he said to the first person he saw. ""Quem é você? Por que você está vestida assim?"" the man replied. ""Well you're useless,"" Overlord said, before firing off a blast of electricity at the stranger, killing him instantly. At the sight of this, the Brazilian village's center was cleared as its occupants fled to their homes, either to hide or find weapons to fight back. An overwhelming number of men with guns returned to try and stop Overlord, but he only sneered at them and said, ""Pathetic."" There would be no survivors.</div>"

Lucy was sitting cross legged on her bed, a mess of papers spread out around her and a ball of light helping her to read. She yawned. She'd been up all night reading about her brother. She'd finally gotten an unsavory little rat to find out something about him. He was going by TK now and last anyone knew, he was in Switzerland. That was three months ago. Lucy finally put down the file she had her nose buried in and ran a hand through her messy red hair, something she'd inherited from her mother. She climbed down from the bed and walked out of her room and into the rest of HQ where she found the others, Wonder Girl, Blue Arrow, Casan, Arron and Charlie. She heard Wonder Girl mention something about getting ice cream as a team and she smiled. ""Morning everyone. And if ice cream for breakfast is the plan then count me in,"" she said.

John was walking through the streets of Happy Harbor, smirking. He was here on a mission of great personal interest. Destroy Mount Justice and those who resided there. He'd caught wind of the formation of the Young Justice team and decided that it wasn't going to fly for him. He had just begun to plan his way to power when a new team of heroes pops up. Like dealing with the actual Justice League wasn't bad enough now he had to deal with their younger siblings. He grimaced at the thought. But it didn't matter. John was planning on sending a message tonight. Put away the costumes, or die. He however, knew very little about the team. He was aware the alien, Blue Arrow, and Wonder Girl, but other than that, he had no idea who else he would be up against. But John was arrogant and he was confident that they didn't have a weapon they could use against him. He chuckled to himself and continued down the street.</div>"

Everything was ready, his blueprints were loaded, he'd already hacked into the security feed for the bank he was set to hit, and his ride would be showing up any second. As if on cue, a grey volkswagen camper pulled into the parking lot, prompting Jacque to close his laptop, shove everything into his back pack, and walk out of the door. Rather than walking directly towards the van, Jacque kept his head low and walk around the building before crouching behind a trashcan. Once there, he pulled two things from his bag, the first being a simple green baseball cap, and the second being a black silken mask with eyeholes and a golden spiderweb pattern. Jacque donned both of these and made his way back to the van, nodding to the driver who unlocked the door and allowed him inside of the vehicle. 

Jacque, now Orb Weaver, was greeted by four men in the back of the van, each brandishing either an assault rifle or a shot gun as well as duffel bags. ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Nice to see you boys came prepared.</span></font>"" Orb Weaver all but purred as he closed the doors behind him and took a seat.

Orb Weaver recoiled in an exaggerated manner, acting as if the question hurt him, ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">If I didn't know better, i'd assume you'd pegged me for an amateur.</span></font>"".

As the driver unlocked the door, Orb weaver checked the magazine and racked the slide to ensure the breach was clear, then shoved the gun into his coat. He waited for the four men with him to shuffle out before jumping out himself. ""<font color=""#fdd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright boys, the blueprints for the building are downloaded into each of your smart phones.

The answer seemed to satisfy the thug, and with not another word spared, the group quietly made their way to the door. 

Orb weaver rolled his wrists with a bit of flourish and input the code for the electric lock on the door, nodding with satisfaction as the door clicked open.

Well so far so good today. Sarah had made the mistake last night of going out for some air. It had all been fine until a couple little incidents happened. She averted a traffic accident and prevented a fire from starting. Hell she even saved a cat from a tree. Such an annoying side effect of her powers. She got back late because of it and lost out on some sleep. Dropping her head against her desk she groaned slightly. Sure the healing would fix the sleepiness but the constant diversions were getting old. Not particularly interesting in leaving her room she did have to get something to eat. 

Rising and healing herself so she wouldn't look like a total disaster Sarah walked out. This place still had that new feeling for her. Avoiding the monitors she overheard some of the others talking about ice cream. That actually sounded good, if only it meant not having to go outside. Still maybe she could get some anyway. ""Could you maybe bring something back for me?""</div>"

Already he'd personally disposed of two security guards with nothing more than choke hold and a quick strike to the head with his gun. His team had also taken out several other guards in a similar manner, but left them alive at Orb Weaver's request. ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">You'd think they'd hire more adept security than these guys if they're protecting everyone's money.</span></font>"" Orb Weaver muttered to one of his team as he nonchalantly went through an unconscious guard's wallet and took his money. With no further distractions, the thieves made their way to the vault room, where Orb Weaver waisted very little time setting up shop. The criminal hooked up his tablet to a key pad and began to type furiously on the device to extract the code he needed. Everything was going just as planned, with nary a flaw to be seen. Of course things had to go wrong. Orb Weaver turned to say something to one of his team only to have the words die in his throat as a security guard turned the corner. Everything seemed to run in slow motion, Orb weaver's blood ran cold as one of his team raised their rifle and fired, downing the guard with a three shot burst. Orb weaver sat stunned for a few moments before finally, ""<font color=""#fdd700""><span class=""bb-b"">YOU IDIOT! I SAID DON'T SHOOT!</span></font>"" he snarled. ""<span class=""bb-b"">He would've called for backup, what was I supposed to do!?</span>"", Orb weaver let out a stream of profanity out of frustration. He'd been in jobs where people had gotten injured before sure, but murder was in a whole different league. It was too late to turn back though, with most of the code having been encrypted and deciphered. ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright I want a perimeter set up until this is done, guard the door. Once it's open we fill our bags and get out. By now i'm sure someone's called the police.</span></font>"".

Exactly as Orb weaver predicted, a few people having heard the gunshots had already pulled out their phones and dialed 911. Orb weaver continued his typing, pushing the thought of the dead man behind him out of his mind with some effort.</div>"

<a href=""https://youtu.be/x_7G6hcG66E"">Setting The Mood</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Last Night...</span>
A young man looking to be in his early twenties awoke to find himself strapped to an operating bed. His wrists, ankles, legs, upper body, pretty much anywhere he could wriggle about was held down with the only exception being his head which turned every which way trying to figure out where he was. The man struggled to get out of his restraints for a moment before finally giving in to the panic and calling for help. <span class=""bb-b"">""HELP! IS ANYONE THERE?!""</span>, almost immediately a shadowy figure burst through the door at the end of the room. <span class=""bb-b"">""Oh thank god someone found me, listen please you have to get me outta-""</span>, he stopped mid sentence once he notice the figure stand still just out of the light above. Whoever she was didn't come here to rescue him, the sinister smile gave it away. <span class=""bb-b"">""...no no no no please please you have to let me go I didn't do anything to you!""</span>, he pleaded desperately for his life but to no avail. The figure revealed itself once it stepped into the light, <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""You're right you did nothing to me. But it isn't revenge I'm after. You see I've been watching you and I know your little secret""</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""W-what are you talking about""</span>, he asked while barely holding himself together. He looked like he was about to pass out. That would have to wait till later because Pariah was not done with him yet.

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Don't play dumb I really dont give a shit if you talk now or not because I'll get my answers soon enough""</span></font>, her patience was short especially when someone was preventing her from continuing her work. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Listen if you want money I have money I can give you whatever you want I swea-""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yep, wrong answer""</span></font>, was the last thing she said before opening the drawer beside the bed to reveal a myriad of surgeon tools along with various torture devices. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Alright let's see-oh could you shut up! I'm trying to think here!""</span></font>, the victim was crying uncontrollably at this point and as a result received a swift and hard punch to the jaw. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Good you've shut up...let's see here, OH perfect. Ok here's what's going to happen: you're going to tell me where I can find your other metahuman friends or I will twist your toes with this plier. Also if you take to long to answer or I just generally don't like your answer your toes'll get twisted. Ok now here is the best part, if you answer all my questions before I twist all your toes then I'll let you go. Sound like a deal?""</span></font>, Pariah's eyes had a look of delight as she told the rules to her captive. It could be said that she took pleasure out of torturing people and in all honesty it would be true.

The young man nodded silently while trying to stifle his cries. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Good now let's get started""</span></font>, to the man's horror Pariah clamped the pliers onto this little toe and twisted it to the right until it was broken, the sick sound of his bone cracking beneath the skin accompanied by his screams echoed through the room. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""That was incentive to cooperate, now let's really begin. Where are the other metas?""</span></font>, Pariah waited only a mere 3 seconds before getting ready to twist another toe. Fortunately the man spoke out past the pain, <span class=""bb-b"">""I DON'T KNOW! WE USUALLY MEET UP IN SOME CONDEMNED HOUSE NEAR MY PLACE""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""And their powers? The last time you were with them I saw two boys and a girl around your age what are their powers?""</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""The girl, Heather, she can use fire. The guys, Zack and Jason both can fly that's it that's all I know I swear!""</span>, his pain began to dull but was present enough to cause a good amount of discomfort. 

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Thank you for your cooperation. Would you look at that? I didn't have to break all your toes! You know what that means right? You get to go home!""</span></font>, Pariah removed his restraints and helped him up off the operating bed. <span class=""bb-b"">""Really...your letting me go?""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Of course! I always keep my word now go on now, the exit is through that door, down the hall and the stairs on your right then the door to outside if at the bottom of the steps""</span></font>, Pariah watched him take a few steps toward the door before hitting him in the back of yhe head and knocking him out. When he awoke he found himself tied to a chair with duct tape over his mouth. Unlike last time Pariah was already there sitting in a chair a short distance away. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Oh good your awake, listen I know I said I'd let you go but it was actually a lie. You see you and your little gang of metas have been causing trouble in the city with you store robberies, muggings, burglaries, that sort of stuff. In all honesty I could not live with myself knowing I let a dangerous criminal back out onto the streets. Now if you notice you are soaked in something that would be gasoline.</span></font>, Pariah pulled a lighter out from her pocket and waved it in her hand before flicking it on. The man struggled hard but to no avail, the chair was bolted to the ground. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""HEY HEY HEY! What's with the crying huh?I thought you were a hardened criminal but I guess your just a little bitch! If you ask me you need to lighten up</span></font>, she threw the lighter at him and in seconds he was engulfed in flames. His screams were muffled by the duct tape until it was no longer needed, he passed out from shock and the fire claimed him soon after.

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Hehe...lighten up""</span></font>

Something was off and he had a feeling the moniters would enlighten him on the cause of his distress. Placing a finger on the touchpad he activated the alert system. It scanned for nearby crimes or anything of importance to the team. Sure enough the moniters brought on screen a robbery taking place. ""We have a situation: A bank robbery in process, six suspects reported at the scene brandishing shotguns and assault rifles. Shots fire but all information coming out of the bank has ceased. The police do not have a visual on the suspects and it is unknown if anyone was killed. Blue Arrow, what course of action do you suggest we take?"", it seemed as if Casan would get the work he was looking for.</div>"

Of course, now her curse was kicking in and preventing her from ignoring this. ""Where is it?"" Walking over she looked at the information herself. It was practically on their doorstep. ""A poor choice to do a heist."" She was one to talk. The whole reason she was here now was because she knocked off a museum.</div>"

He paused momentarily to pull up his radio, ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">I thought you assholes claimed to b professionals!</span></font>"" he barked to the driver who remained in the car outside. The device crackled for a bit before a reply came, ""<span class=""bb-b"">What're you talking about, we are!</span>"", ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Well obviously not, one of you trigger happy friends just killed a cop.</span></font>"" Orb weaver spat back venomously, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Jesus chirst...</span>"". Orb weaver rolled his eyes beneath the mask, ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Call on him later, we're almost done here, how's it looking out there?</span></font>"". The driver held the radio away from his face and rolled down the window a bit to listen out, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Some sirens in the distance. Maybe five, ten minutes away tops. No sign of any supers though.</span>"". Orb weaver clucked his tongue, ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Good, keep the car running but don't move until we come out. That van better handle better than it looks.</span></font>"". Without waiting for a reply, Orb weaver shoved the radio into his coat and looked at the tablet in his hand, his frustration momentarily turning to elation as he finally gained access to the vault's systems. ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright boys we're in business. One of you stay to guard the door, the rest of you on me with the bags.</span></font>"" He barked as he stood and pressed one more button on the tablet, ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">Open sesame.</span></font>"". The vault opened with a hiss and a click, just in time for another three round burst to ring out. There was a yell as another guard dropped to the ground out in the hallway, though Orb weaver didn't have time to lament the loss of life.

He shoved the tablet into his bag and along with three of the four men piled inside and began to grab what they could, the team using duffels, while Orb weaver used his own back pack. What the others did at this point was of no consequence so long as he received his cut. Once his bag was filled to the brim, Orb weaver zipped it up and ran out of the vault to help cover the others, pulling out his pistol and turning off the safety as he stacked up at the part of the doorway across from his team mate. ""<font color=""#ffd700""><span class=""bb-b"">You couldn't have just nicked him or something? Jesus I can see his fucking brain matter from here!</span></font>"" Orb weaver hissed as he peered momentarily out of the door way.</div>"

Lucy looked at the monitor and sprung into action. ""I'll go get ready,"" she said, running off to her room to get into her outfit. She quickly changed into her crime fighting gear, an outfit that consisted of a vest with kevlar over key spots, a hood connected to her vest that contained an ear piece and microphone so she could communicate with the team, and then some pants and combat boots. The whole outfit was a bright white that gave off a sort of glow if one looked quickly. She jogged back out to the others where Casan had just asked Blue Arrow what the plan was.

John was heard the sirens rush up behind him and the police car speed past. He smirked. So someone else was causing some trouble in Happy Harbor. He decided to follow the police, running after the cars and following the sounds of sirens to a bank that was surrounded by police. He smirked. A good old fashioned robbery. He grinned wickedly before deciding to have some fun. He jogged around to the back of the bank and noticed that it was devoid of cops. Perfect. He concentrated and began using his telekinesis to pick himself up and towards the roof of the bank. Once he reached the top he bent over to catch his breath. Using his power on himself always left him slightly nauseous. Once he had regained his orientation he strode over to the roof entrance and flicked his wrist, sending the door flying forward into the bank with a loud clang. He smirked again and swaggered inside, climbing down the ladder until he was on the ground floor, in a janitor's closet. He'd wait until he knew there weren't any guys with guns waiting to shoot him before stepping out to play. He was arrogant but he wasn't stupid.</div>"

For a moment he feared that he'd have to go out to confront this person, however the figure ascended to the roof of the bank and disappeared from view. He fumbled for his radio for a second and brought it to his face, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Orb Weaver, we got a super that just went topside. Just flew up like it wasn't a thing. He might've gotten in through the roof by now.</span>"". Orb weaver grimaced as he heard this and brought up his radio, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Acknowledged. Stay in position, we'll be out shorty.</span></font>"". The villain stuffed his radio into his pocket and turned to his cohorts just as they came out with bags filled to the brim with money, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright you heard the man. We got a super in the building. Capable of flight and only who knows what else, be on your guard. And for gods sake if you have to shoot, shoot to maim, not kill.</span></font>"" he said giving a pointed look at the man next to him. With their money secured, Orb Weaver and his group cautiously exited the vault room, stepping over the two dead guards with their weapons raised and ready as they slowly started to make their way towards the exit.</div>"

He had chosen to stop at a shopping mall, and fell asleep on the edge of a pond outside in the courtyard. As passers-by went about their shopping, a couple pointed and stared at him. He had been wearing a tattered old sheet to keep the cold away, and appeared to be very much like a homeless man. He even looked the part, as his form looked weak and pathetic crumpled on the ground. Of course, the image of the facility mattered to the staff, and so his nap was soon interrupted.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Sir, you cannot sleep here""</span> A voice suddenly came to him, interrupting his dreams. He hated waking up. Opening one eye, Hunter looked up to see a security guard standing over him. The man was rather portly, and from his tone appeared to be on a power trip. A mall cop, an amusing form of human that thought it was all-powerful because it had control over one tiny section of mall. As if on cue, the man started to back up once he saw the color of Hunter's eye. Bright red was not a normal color for a normal person, and clearly disturbed the man.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Go fuck yourself""</span> he grumbled to the security guard before turning over and closing his eyes again. Apparently, the statement had pushed the guard over the edge, and soon he felt a boot impacting his back. He let out a grunt from the impact, before growling in a deep, unnatural way. It was animalistic, and clearly disturbed those observing the altercation. Hunter started to get up, causing his rag to fall off. It revealed a very strong young man who was also quite tall. He wore a uniform of some kind, although it could not be linked to any distinct organization or group. Both of his red eyes now glared daggers at the mall cop, and he let loose a snarl. This caused a couple of things to happen.

The guard, now completely frightened, pulled out a can of pepper spray, and aimed it at Hunter's face. However, he never got to spray it at his target, as Hunter had already grabbed the man's head. With a heave, the chubby officer was sent flying into a nearby wall on the edge of the courtyard. At that time, the bystanders began running away. However, before anyone could react, he ran after the thrown guard. The man had just gotten back up, but didn't have time to react before Hunter began ruthlessly beating the shit out of him. It eventually became bloody, as the metal arms that Hunter had began to do serious damage. He had a vicious grin on his face as he beat up the guard, and he felt his rage and anger being channeled through his fists and into the guard's face.

By the time he was done a few minutes later, the guard was nothing more than a bloody pile of broken bones and bruised tissue. Hunter walked away from the scene as he began to hear sirens in the distance. It wasn't that he was afraid of the legal ramifications of what he had done, it was more that he hated dealing with police officers. Then again, it didn't mean much. He hated everything.</div>"

""Yes I agree."" Sarah was ready to go. There was a job to do and she was always raring to go it seemed. She never even took a break even when people told her she should. Many a time she wanted a break but that damn Guardian Angel would just push her. The others seemed to think that her 'dedication' was a little on the crazy side. She agreed.

Walking over to the hanger she opened it up and turned back. ""Anyone need a lift?"" So demeaning. Practically a slave in her own body. If she could call it her body. It changed pretty significantly that night. She had tried to do some research on what that rune was but wasn't coming up with much. Maybe she should ask Warlock for help. He was knowledgeable in the arcane arts. That might require explaining a few things though that she tried to keep to herself.</div>"

John heard the voice of what sounded like their leader a ways a way. He grinned. Here was his chance. He'd see who this guy was and then, he'd steal some of the money if he liked the guy, or all of it if he didn't. He opened the door and stepped out, right into the line of sight of a group of men exiting the vault room. He grinned. ""Hello fellas. Now which one of you is in charge of this robbery thing?""

Now which one of you is in charge of this robbery thing?</span>"", Orb Weaver stood straight up as John stepped into view of him and his group. In a flash, all four men had their weapons raised, ready to fire if they had to, however no one pulled their triggers quite yet. Orb Weaver's eyes narrowed a bit as he looked at the young man before him, John hadn't just flat out engaged the group, which could possibly be a good sign, perhaps he could charm his way out of a fight. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">I suppose you could say i'm the one in charge of this merry band of misfits. Well, for now at least.</span></font>"" he stated as he pointed the barrel of his gun to the floor. The rest of the group kept their weapons pointed at John, Orb weaver did not reprimand them for it as complete trust in a stranger was a fool's gambit. Taking a moment to glance behind himself and his team to ensure they weren't being snuck up on, Orb weaver then cocked his head to the side a bit, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">You look a bit young to be a guard, so i'm guessing that means you're the super I was warned about earlier. I guess the question now is whether or not you're here to stop me.</span></font>"". ""<span class=""bb-b"">We ain't got time for this Orb weaver, let's just cap 'im and go!</span>"" One of the shot gun wielders hissed as he began to tighten his grip on the weapon. 

Orb weaver's arm shot out like a blur as he grabed the front of the weapon and forced the barrel to point towards the ground, he gave his comrade a sharp glare that was ultimately lost due to his mask before returning attention to John,  ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">Apologies. This bunch can be a bit twitchy.</font></span>"". Orb weaver kept his tone polite and somewhat business like as he addressed John, though there was still some underlying tension due to both the rapidly decreasing window of time and the fact that he was unaware of John's motives.</div>"

Which is why I'm going to give you a choice,"" John said as he whipped his hands towards the ground, releasing a wave of telekinetic energy towards the three minions. They went flying, hitting the wall and dropping the bags filled with money.

Orb weaver scratched the back of his head as he thought of a way to solve the issue without fighting, then, inspiration struck. The villain snapped his fingers and grinned beneath his mask, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">How 'bout this? Given that display you put on you must be a telepath. There's still plenty of money in that vault, if you're able to carry out the equivalent of two duffel bags worth of cash, you can ride with us to our rendezvous point and that money is yours. In addition i'll even split half of my personal cut with you. Parting with a portion of my pay is so much easier than losing my reputation and life after all. So what do you think, that fair for you?</span></font>"". 

Orb weaver may not have betrayed it in his tone, but he was growing slightly anxious. A super hero was already a tricky thing to deal with, but a super that was self serving could be infinitely more risky to deal with. Whatever happened next needed to occur fast.</div>"

""Come on guys. They'll be in Gotham by the time you get out there."" A complete exaggeration but still fun. Turning and pushing off the ground her wings lifted her into the air and out toward Happy Harbor. She was on a mission and wasted no time getting there. Flight made the trip so much faster. Were not something going on she would have enjoyed the freedom of soaring through the air. 

The flashing lights and cop cars made the bank and easy find. Buzzing the location at a distance she could see that there was one out back in a car. Probably the getaway. Coming around so that she was out of sight she folded her wings and swooped down. With a few yards to go she opened her wings and slowed her decent, landing next to the car. ""Hello there."" Pulling the door open she grabbed the man inside before he could react and they both teleported out leaving a running car, his gun, and radio. They didn't go far but surprise gave her the upper hand. When they blinked back GA was carrying him in the air. ""Now that I have your attention I think you have a date with the authorities."" Wrapping around the building she dropped the man off in front of the cops and made her way up to the roof which appeared to have already been broke into. That made things easier.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Present Time</span>
<a href=""https://youtu.be/vgwjPq9JfkM"">The music within the tattoo shop blared</a> as Josephine opened the front door. All around the buzzing of the needles could be heard as her coworkers created art on the bodies of their customers. While she did enjoy working here it was all a disguise, the real her was the Pariah and this was just her cover for when she was hunting Metas. She was greeted by one of the other artists, Sera was her name, she ran up to Josephine and hugged her enthusiastically as if it had been months since she'd seen her. Sera was what you'd expect to see if you entered a tattoo shop. She wore ripped black jeans with a grey tank top and skull cap. Her hair was short and brown but still managed to get in her face which had both lip and nose piercings. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hey Josie! I see you decided to come to work only a little late this time""</span>, the girl said mockingly before sitting down in an unoccupied tattoo chair. Josephine did the same only grabbing a the shop's catalog as well. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I know, strange ain't it?""</span></font>, she replied while flipping through the pages of the catalog. Before she could turn the next page Sera spoke up up again, <span class=""bb-b"">""So what happened with you last night? You ran off after we left Chris' party""</span>

Josephine had almost forgotten about what happened that night besides the interrogation. That night she and Sera had gone to a friend's party in a condemned factory, it was off limits to the public but the crowd there wasn't exactly law abiding citizens. It was there that Josephine had found the group of Metas she'd later hunt. 

Snapping back to the present she needed an excuse for her ditching Sera, <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I remembered I had a date with some guy that night</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Oh really? So how'd it go?""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""The dude didn't like me standing him up, he left before I got there</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Aww well that sucks!""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Eh it's nothing, he probably wasn't my type anyway""</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""You say that about all the guys you go on dates with""</span>, it occurred to Josephine that she had used that excuse before, <span class=""bb-i"">""I'm going to have to come up with something new""</span>, she thought.

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Well I guess I haven't found the right guy yet. But thats fine with me, less drama when it's just me. Besides I got my best friend with me and that's good enough for me""</span></font> 

<span class=""bb-b"">""Awww thanks Josie!""</span>, Sera would have gotten up and hugged her if hadn't begen working on a customer. Josephine, realizing there was another customer waiting for her got up out of the chair and gestured for him to sit. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Alright, what can I get ya?""</span></font>, she asked holding up the catalog for the man. He was the stereotypical college meathead who was getting a tattoo to show who edgy he was. <span class=""bb-b"">""Actually could you do this for me?</span>"", he showed her a picture of a Kanji character. <span class=""bb-i"">""Of course, how did already know""</span>, she thought to herself before answering, <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Sure thing, sit back and I'll start in a minute""</span></font>

Josie was getting everything together when she noticed everyone was crowding around the tv. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""What's going on?""</span></font>, she asked Sera who was now standing with the group staring excitedly at the screen. <span class=""bb-b"">""Its a bank robbery! No one's come out but a super went in through the roof!""</span> 

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""A super?..""</span></font>, a bank robbery alone wouldn't have gotten her attention but the mention of a super did. The got up and moved to the tv which showed a helicopter broadcasting an aerial view of the bank. It showed a super hover up to the roof and throw the door open before entering. Sera, who was all too happy to see this turned to Josephine and squeeled. <span class=""bb-b"">""Do you think he's a hero? I hope I is, I need someone to teach me-""</span>, she was immediately shushed by Josephine who pulled her away from the crowd and out of earshot. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""What do you mean teach you?!""</span></font>, he asked. Josie was hoping so bad that what Sera was going go say was not what she thought. Sera made a careful look around the room before leaning in to whisper to Josephine, <span class=""bb-b"">""At the party, I found a guy. He was creepy as hell and had this bag of something I don't know what it was I thought it was drugs. I took it and by the time I got home I was, I don't know, changing!""</span>

Josephine's fears were confirmed, whatever was in that bag made her into a Meta and she knew what this meant. Sera took a step back a carefully, out of sight of the others, began to cause ice to form over her hands. <span class=""bb-b"">""I can cover my entire body in this but I'm not cold when I do it! Imagine if I got into the Justice League?!""</span>, Sera was overjoyed and barely was able to contain her excitement. Josie on the other hand was hurt with each word Sera spoke. Despite the persona of Josie being a cover for who she really was the experiences she had and the friends she made were real. 

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""That's...that's great Josie! Listen we should celebrate, after work you and I go out and have some fun. Maybe test out your powers too?""</span></font>, this was going to be hard to do but it was for the greater good. 

<span class=""bb-b"">""I'd love that Josie, maybe we can create our own superhero team. I mean you don't have any powers but you can be like Batman! You already can kick ass you just need a costume""</span>, Sera hugged Josephine before running back to watch the news. Josie stayed behind as a look of rage came upon her. She was going to deal with this, then find the bastard who did this.</div>"

She flew up with GA as they went towards the city. Wonder girl sighed. ""Not even one day. Not one. I seriously wanted Ice cream!"" The amazonian said pouting and now making her way to the bank. As it was getting robbed, like always. ""Any plans or something...? Just go there and kick butt?"" Wonder girl asked raising an eyebrow.</div>"

John looked Orb Weaver over, evaluating the deal quickly. It worked for him. He got money that he needed and word would get out about him. Something that he desired. He nodded his head and said, ""I think we have a deal my friend,"" before running into the employee lounge where he found two messenger bags that must have been left there in the morning. He dumped out the contents and ran into the vault, quickly filling them both to the brim. It would be enough money to get him settled and keep him living nicely for a while. Something that John had grown accustomed to was luxury and he wasn't about to lose it here. He walked back over to the men and said, ""I'm ready when you are fellas.""

Lucy watched as GA made towards the scene. She made a split decision to follow, and ran out into the hangar where the jet Blue Arrow had been working on was. She slammed her fist onto a button and the hanger doors began to open. She flipped her hood onto her head and sprinted towards the now open hangar doors. She ran, ran, ran, and jumped, falling towards the rocks that rested at the base of Mt Justice. She fell through the air, a smile on her face the whole time. She began to gather the light around her and before she could hit the ground a pair of wings had formed on her back and she was shooting up and towards the bank, grinning from adrenaline. Once she reached the bank she landed, and her wings disappeared in a flash of light. Lucy strode up to the police man who seemed to be directing everyone. ""Sir what's the status of the people inside?"" she asked after fetching his attention with a quick tap on the shoulder. ""Ahh Torch. It's good to have ya. I assume the rest of the team is on it's way? Guardian Angel just got 'ere too. Flew around the bank. We believe none of the civilians are 'urt but we can't say the same about security. One o' my guys did claim he saw a super float up there though. Did you guys get a new teammate?"" The cop replied Torch was shocked by the response. Another super. Here. And the fact that said super wasn't out here putting the robbers in a squad car meant they were dead, or a villain. Lucy didn't know which was worse.</div>"

On his way to Washington D.C., he had interrogated more people on the whereabouts of this nation's leader and now was his chance to wipe out his counterpart. As he stood in the Oval Office, he searched the room for a face that would resemble his own. Realizing that no one fit the bill, he turned to the nearest individual and said, ""You! Worthless fool! Where is the leader of these 'United States?'"" Before an answer could be said, several armed men in suits burst into the room and aimed their weapons at Overlord. Without even turning around to aim, he blasted them all with a single wide arch of electricity. ""Where?!"" he shouted again.

""I am the leader of this nation, son,"" the man said as he got up from the floor.

""You?! Then where is Donald Levy?!"" he shouted, his rage at the boiling point.

""I do not know who that is, but you're welcome to use my computer to find them. If that will get you to leave,"" the president said, turning a nearby laptop to face Overlord.

He approached the computer and poked it with his index finger. ""What is this strange device?"" he asked.

The president stood confuse, ""It-it's a computer.""

""What is a computer?""

""You know what? Let me do it,"" the president said rapidly typing into the keyboard. ""There. Here's the person you're looking for. He lives near Happy Harbor. Now could you please leave?""

""Happy Harbor? Where is that?""

""That way,"" the president said, pointing to approximate location was. ""And here's the address too,"" he said, handing Overlord a piece of paper that he had written on while searching for Overlord's counterpart.

Overlord snatched the paper from the president's hand and smiled. ""Perfect,"" he said before taking off again.</div>"

Now not only would the mission b completed, but Orb weaver had a bit more muscle in the group for the time being. The rest of the team rose to their feet and started to raise their weapons to fire at John, but a quick bark of 'hold fire' by Orb weaver stopped them in their tracks. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright boys we've got a delivery to make. Let's speed it up!</span></font>"" he ordered. The team grumbled at Orb weaver's constant bossiness but picked up their bags and began to move out as he ordered. With another satisfied nod, Orb weaver began to walk after them, pausing long enough to inform John about the getaway van they had out back. He raised the radio and pressed the button, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">This is Orb weaver, we're ready to go. Picked up some extra muscle too, so don't go freaking out and trying to shoot.</span></font>"". When there was no reply on the other end, Orb weaver clucked his tongue and tried again, then a third time. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Something ain't right. We don't have time for this.</span></font>"" he hissed before whistling to his men, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Our driver isn't picking up, I dunno if this means he's been caught or simply fell asleep behind the wheel like a moron. Whatever the case be careful when we get to the exit, I don't want to screw this up when we're this close to success.</span></font>"". His team nodded in confirmation, the one that had downed the guards checked his magazine to see how much ammunition they had left, and then they were off once more.

Outside of the bank, the original driver of the van smirked as he was roughly cuffed and pushed into a cruiser. The super that had grabbed him had been quick and efficient, but in their haste they'd left the keys in the ignition and the car running. If the heist was a success, he could expect to be out of jail within the next three days. Happy harbor may have been a city of heroes at first glance, but once you scratched the surface it almost matched gotham city in terms of corruption at times.</div>"

When he heard Wonder Girl question about having a plan or just going to kick some butt. He used his necromancy to summon a four undead ghouls with repulsive features and snarling faces. They awaited their master's instruction and Charles turned to face his teammates.

""I suggest that my ghouls go in first to give these robbers a scare and then we follow in right after to catch them off guard"" he said to them as his face became black and white like a skeleton.</div>"

Maybe not a big time one, but still a criminal. Probably the only reason she was never caught was because she looked nothing like her former self and couldn't continue breaking the law. Though one could say she was still a prisoner. Hearing no one coming up the stairs she headed to the edge of the building and dropped back down to the car. It was pretty much the only place to go and what she would do in their shoes. Grabbing the keys she paused for a moment thinking back to some of the things she'd done.

John followed Orb Weaver and his men as they quickly exited the building, his bags of money floating behind him. Once they exited the building through the back, John saw what he assumed was their getaway van. And he saw a girl with wings holding the keys. Now John was no expert in robbing a bank but he figured that you kept the keys in the ignition if you intended to help. It seemed like Young Justice had arrived. He smirked before calling out, ""Hey Tweety Bird. I'm gonna have to ask you to put the keys in the ignition, start the car, and then fly away.""

Once there he dived bombed towards the van pulling up a few feet above to shift into a rhino. The impact of him landing on the van crushed it but left Casan relatively unharmed. He got up and off the van and revealed his true form.

It wasn't that he was just pissed about his mission being screwed with, his laptop had been in there. Orb weaver's vision tunneled, blotting out the undead and the heroes, save one; Cassan. The team nervously shifted at the sight before them, their adrenaline pumping, instincts telling them to flee or fight for their lives, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Men.</span></font>"" Orb weaver grumbled, his voice hitting an ominously low note that grabbed their attenion, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">We are not dealing with regular people.

By the time he realized what was going on the criminals had already turned their sights towards him and the team. He made a mad dash for cover but was ultimately hit by Orb Weaver's bullets. The round managed to go right through his leg but missed any bone thankfully. He fell behind cover and began to change his shape, this time into a creature from his home planet, the Garmr.<font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""I gave them a warning-ah!-and this is my reward for mercy!""</span></font>, His frame began to expand until he was about twelve feet. He grew legs, lots of legs which resembled those of the Giant Amazonian Centipede. His skin grew scales and were thick like kevlar, and his appearance in general resembled that of a serpent mixed with a centipede. His head underwent the most disturbing change of all as his skull broke in multiple places to make way for its exponential growth. The sounds of bone snapping as his head shaped into a hybrid of a snake with mandibles of a spider. When the process was complete he could hear some of the suspects reloading their gun. His numerous legs clamored as he charged around the corner letting out a bellowing roar which was accompanied by the swishing of the venom which was pooling in his mouth and was spewed out onto the ground. With one swift motion he grabbed one of the gunmen in his massive jaws and swung him about before throwing him onto the remains of their van. The next was either going to get stomped on or injected with venom.</div>"

Lucy saw the others go around towards the back and heard a crash. She sprinted back and saw Casan reveal his true form, causing her to shiver, and then watched as the robbers unleashed bullets on the team, one hitting Casan, to which he responded by turning into a giant monster. <span class=""bb-i"">Damn he knows how to handle a problem</span> Lucy thought, before charging one of the men, one who seemed to be preparing himself for something big. She tackled him and pulled her arm back to punch him when she stopped. ""John?"" she queried, a look of confusion on her face.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">John aka TK</span></span>

John looked up at Lucy with a look of surprise. He had been readying himself for a huge telekinetic blast that would have knocked everyone down, giving himself time to escape when he had been hit from the side and taken down. When he looked up, instead of some hero, he saw his twin sister. ""Lucy? What the hell?"" John asked, until he finally put the pieces together. She was with Young Justice. ""You're with them? Why?!"" he exclaimed, ignoring the roars of the giant monster and the gunshots. 
<span class=""bb-b"">""You're a robber? Last I heard you were in Switzerland,""</span> Lucy said, yelling over the sounds of battle.
""I'm not a robber. I just got here and I needed money. I figured I could get a cut out of this robbery,"" he replied. ""You still haven't answered my question about being with these heroes!"" John shouted.
Lucy looked at him before saying, <span class=""bb-b"">""You didn't know? So then you didn't come here looking for me?""</span>
John fell silent. He could sense his sister's anger and he knew he was in trouble. It was true. John hadn't looked for his sister since he had left her, three years ago.

Two members of his original team were down, and the plan he had begun to formulate involving the telepath was ended before it even began thanks to one of the heroes. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">God damn it they're ruining everything!</span></font>"" He hissed as he leaned out from behind his cover. From the looks of things, the girl that had knocked out John was still distracted. Orb weaver ejected and checked his magazine, there were still ten bullets out of the original twelve, and popped the mag back into the gun. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Time to do something incredibly stupid.</span></font>"" Orb weaver muttered before rushing out and kicking Torch in the head as hard as he could. He wasted little time after his assault pointing the gun at her and whistling loudly to get everyone's attention ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">That'll be enough of that thank you!</span></font>"" he shouted as his remaining team moved in to flank him. The time for games was over, now it was time for Orb weaver to see just how far his silver tongue could take him, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">All of you stand down! Make a move and this one gets a new skylight for her brain!</span></font>"" he warned. It was a bluff on his part, in truth he'd never consider taking a life, crippling one yes, but never taking one, however the others did not know that. To emphasize his point, one of his team pointed the barrel of their shotgun at Torch as well, ensuring that if someone managed to incapacitate Orb weaver, the girl would still meet her end.</div>"

Seeing the transformation of her teammate was still quite a gruesome sight and made her stomach turn slightly. It wasn't long after that that one of the men was tossed on the car beside her. Good greef, they were rough. Probably best to get this over with quickly before things get really out of hand. So far none of them appeared to be supers though so she didn't want to harm them too much. ""Stupid angel conscience."" She thought to herself. 

The others were taking out everyone without as much as a second thought. All at once Sarah realized she was in a unique position. This probably wasn't the first time but it wasn't something she hadn't noticed before. Everyone was in danger in some form or fashion at the moment. It was brief but it meant she could do what she wanted. What did she want to do? She was wasting precious seconds. And just like that the opportunity was gone. Torch was in imminent danger and that took priority. Already in motion as Orb Weaver and the other gunman took aim a barrier formed around their target. 

Sarah could hardly make sense of her own movements. They had an odd, yet elegant flow to them as she practically floated across the ground, closing the gap between her and the unnamed gunman. For some reason she didn't sense any danger from Orb Weaver. It was hard to pin down. With a twirl a gust of wind blew the man against the side of the bank. Pausing briefly GA looked at the only one left. Unlike the others who probably did not look too pleased she had a curious expression.</div>"

While his priority was the capture of these men he did care for the well being of his teammates, turns out he wasn't heartless after all. <span class=""bb-i"">""I blame the humans for this. Making me soft""</span>, he thought to himself. He changed back to his true form so as to not reveal his human cover. Thankfully these changes were painless due to his body shutting down his nervous system. Raising his hands up he signaled he would cease hostilities. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Very well. We will stop, just let her go-""</span></font>, before he could finish his statement Guardian Angel somehow managed to take out one of the gunmen. This time Casan was ready to act and he capitalized on his teammate's risky move. His hands were already up so he aimed the tips of his fingers towards Orb Weaver and in those moments time seemed to slow down almost. He had to be very careful not to hit Torch or else she'd he receiving a powerful dose of venom which would have her paralyzed in seconds and it would last for almost a day. His lined up the shot as best he could and his brain signaled for his body to fire the quills. He could feel them as they moved from their original place in his back down his arm and out of the space between his fingers. They shot out of him with the speed equivalent to someone using throwing knives. From the speed of the quills and the distance they were fired from Casan calculated that the Orb Weaver would have three seconds before the quills hit him.</div>"

Out of the corner of his eye Orb weaver saw a series of sharp looking projectiles gunning for him, eliciting a movement born from several years of martial arts training. He threw a bit more of his weight into his turn, resulting in a less than graceful spin that threw him on his rear. Fate smiled on Orb weaver in that moment, allowing him to narrowly avoid the quills at the cost of his hat, which flew down the hall of the bank with the quills. Orb weaver let out a shaky breath of relief and scrambled back to his feet. This time Orb weaver did not raise his gun, rather he kept it clutched tightly in his hand as he glared at the team. The tension in the air was palpable as his mind raced to find a way out of his predicament.</div>"

Sarah couldn't be sure what was going to happen next. Things were quiet and she could do things freely again. Having missed the last chance she reached out and took it this time. Or rather, she reached out and grabbed the villains arm. A rash decision perhaps but in a split second Sarah chose to go against what GA would do. Both her and Orb Weaver teleported out of sight in a flash of magic. 

Appearing inside a couple buildings over Sarah let go of his arm and stepped back. She raised her hands in a show of no ill will. ""<font color=""khaki""><span class=""bb-b"">Alright now. Don't shoot me. We're away from the others.</span></font></div>"

Lucy rubbed her head, grimacing in pain. That kick had hurt like hell. She stood up, wincing slightly, before turning to the remaining gunman, who was still firing. Their leader had been taken by GA, to god knows where, and the other two had already been taken out. Normally, Lucy was your typical hero, Be gentle with the normals and try not to get anyone killed. But she was in a really bad mood today and unfortunately for the gunman, he was on the receiving end. She made a gesture with her hand and light moved together, forming a coil around the man's neck that began tightening, squeezing the air from his lungs. She gritted her teeth. She could feel him dying and this time, she didn't care. She couldn't care. Her brother hadn't cared and she was stronger then him so then she had to not care. Lucy flashed back and waved the coil away, allowing the man to breathe. She panted. <span class=""bb-i"">What was that?</span> she thought, a worried look on her face. She waved her hand again after she caught her bearings and the light reformed into a rope, this time around the gunman's wrists.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">John aka TK</span></span>

John had stirred from unconsciousness right about the time that Lucy was about to kill a man. He looked around, and noticing the others were distracted, made a break for it, grabbing his money and sprinting off, rubbing his face where Lucy had punched him. John was running past a building, when in through the window, two floors up he saw one of the supers, the one with wings, and the man who had been leading the bank robbery. He grimaced. It was probable that his presence had gotten the man and his team into this mess. And plus, the guy was smart. John respected that. He grumbled quietly before entering the building and tiptoeing towards the stairs, yelling at himself mentally to quit while he was ahead.</div>"

His red lens glaring as the sunlight hit it, his boots leaving a static discharge as he pounded the shingles beneath his feet. He finally came to a halt at a spot that overlooked the bank. Almost every window was shattered so it was easy to see within. Coincidentally, he had a great view of those inside, to include a handful of unconscious men. His keen eye picked up on who's who and saw that only one faction there was going to make it out. That was until a sudden burst of white light and the absence of two of the doomed individuals. Warren felt the electrons shift in the air caused by the sudden vanishing and then again by the reappearance of them in the building below him. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""Must be my lucky day.""</font> He thought to himself. Warren, who was currently under the guise of Bolt, leapt off the building before rapidly turning into raw electricity and zipped through the air until finding the window nearest his prospects. Passing through the window naturally shattered it, he reverted back to his normal form and tumbled forward in plain view of Orb Weaver and Guardian Angel. He landed in a sprawled position but slowly stood up and began dusting himself off, almost as if he was completely alone in the room. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Wonder how much someone would pay for a bank heist done right these days?""</font> he asked out loud before turning to face them.</div>"

Was Angel taking him on by herself? If so then that meant all that was left was to round up the bruised up robbers and bring them to the police. He shifted into an aoe and scooped up the unconscious criminals and carried them to the police who were waiting on the other side of the building. Once the last of them-excluding Torch's brother-were brought to the authorities Casan shifted once again to his true form. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Here you are officers, I trust these men will see justice under your care""</span></font>, he said to one of the officers as he loaded the last one into the police van. The officer had a look of disgust once he got a good look as the Kartathan, <span class=""bb-b"">""Uh yeah, Sure thing Skinwalker""</span> he said. As Casan walked back to his team he overheard the officer say, <span class=""bb-b"">""Man, why'd Young Justice hire that thing?</span>, to another officer to which she replied, <span class=""bb-b"">""I know right, I get the creeps every time I look at it</span>

Their words hit Casan hard. It was at times like these that he truely felt alone. Somewhere in the vast galaxy was his home and he was trapped on this rock surrounded by people who would never accept him, never thank him, only fear and ridicule him. While he wondered for a moment why he helped them he was quickly reminded that he was a soldier of order. It was his life's purpose to protect the innocent and uphold law. To do otherwise would bring shame to his people. If he hoped for his people to one day be accepted in Earth then he'd have to set an example.</div>"

The criminal backed away from her a few steps, but kept his gun to the ground, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">What on earth are you doing? Aren't you one of <span class=""bb-u"">them</span>?</span></font>"". His question would have to wait as someone else -another super Orb weaver wagered- made himself known with a bit more flourish than Orb weaver was comfortable with, what's more, from the sound of things he'd witnessed the heist and was unimpressed with Orb weaver's performance. Orb weaver clucked his tongue with annoyance, but remained calm outside of that, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">About five hundred grand. Plus whatever you can carry on your own, usually.</span></font>"" he retorted in a matter of fact tone. Orb weaver returned his gun to his coat, then placed his hands on his hips, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">So, what's this supposed to be, huh? What, were you two working the team until you could get away with a robbery or something?

Lucy was pissed. She'd messed up today. She'd let her brother get away and had almost killed someone on top of that. She couldn't help but feel extremely sorry for herself. She saw Casan looking pretty much the same way, though it was hard to tell honestly, and so she made her way over to him. ""Casan, I really need you to tell me that I did something right today. Because I just found out that the brother I've been searching for for three years, my god damned twin, hasn't given me a passing thought in all that time, and I almost killed a man.

John had heard someone enter the building and speak, referencing the failed bank robbery, as John slowly crept up the stairs. Once he had reached the floor they were located on he stepped out of hiding, taking a deep breath as he walked over to them, having regained his normal arrogance. ""So here's the thing Tweety Bird. You and your friend are going to let me and my ""friend"","" John put air quotes around the word friend, ""go and I'm going to let you and your friend go. Doesn't that seem like a fair trade?""

Orb weaver put his gun away and Sarah sighed. Finally, nothing was happening. Glancing around they were in an empty apartment, probably cleared out because of the bank robbery just down the street. Shaking her head she walked over to the couch that was there and took a seat, crossing her legs. ""<font color=""khaki""><span class=""bb-b"">Please, nothing so dramatic.

Orb weaver once more returned his attention to Sarah as she explained why she'd saved him, perplexed by her reasoning, <font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">So...you've potentially lost the trust of your team, a team of super powered beings I might add, and committed a crime by aiding and abetting a criminal because you didn't want to see me locked up?

Shifting back into ""work mode"", Orb weaver clapped his hands, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Ok, I think i've got a way to ensure everyone gets what they want. How about, the both of you help me get this loot to my drop point, and I split the pay I was to receive between the two of you?</span></font>"".

John smirked at Orb weaver, and listened as he spoke to him and Warren. The plan sounded good enough. He only had one question. ""Who exactly do you work for? I'd like to know who's money I'm going to be getting back,"" John asked, crossing his arms and looking at Orb weaver with a questioning stare.

It was being made to move at least as fast as Wondergirl could fly, but the mechanics were very hard to work out. He was simply awaiting their return.

There was silence throughout the warehouse. The city was noisy around it, but there was barely a sound to be heard. There was a dark feeling over the warehouse, when the echo of footsteps made its way through the air. A lone figure walked through the building as he muttered softly to himself, clutching at his hands and looking about with his glowing green eyes. He sighed as he sat down at his workbench, his tanned face looking a bit tired and worn. He settled into his seat and looked over his lists, his plans, his maps. He just wished that he had someone to share it all with...

He shook his head, then suddenly his eyes widened when he realized he was still wearing his mask. He peeled it off, exposing his stark white skin and the deep red ""lipstick"" that crossed his face. He smiled to himself softly as he held the idea of a sidekick, maybe a minion of sorts. ""Well, I do suppose that could be in the cards... If I weren't stacking the deck, it wouldn't be, anyway.""

Sarah listened to the proposal and appeared to give it some serious thought. A job like this she hadn't done in over a year. Not that she hadn't tried early on.

Well that went as well as could be expected. After Sarah departed the group she spent most of the day out on her own. She'd disabled her comm so she could have some peace and quiet. She wasn't far, having made her way to the top of the mountain where she would be out of sight from outsiders. 

Even with several hours she couldn't decide exactly what to do. Run was her first thought. That's what she would have done normally. But GA wouldn't allow her to leave for very long. Where the hell did that girl even come from anyway? She knew it had something to do with that rune stone but she for the life of her couldn't read a damn thing on it. Was it a curse? A punishment for her crimes? It frustrated her that she didn't even have a choice whether she wanted to be good or not. A whole year like that before coming here in just the last couple months. 

No one here even really knew the real her. That was the odd thing. She actually cared what they thought of her. When did she ever care what anyone thought? And now she had gone and helped out a baddie get away. It was supposed to make her feel free making her own decisions but now she was second guessing it. Sarah felt lost and alone. She needed help, someone to talk to. To her, not some face she wore. Having worked most of the emotion out of her system she finally headed back into the base and began looking for Warlock. She didn't know if he would be a good person to confide in, but he may have some insight into what the rune that started all this.</div>"

Orb weaver sat quietly on a pile of crates, his legs crossed, and his hands clutching/tapping on his tablet. With the help of Bolt and TK, he'd been able to once more acquire the money once more. Orb weaver chuckled a bit as he recalled briefly the screams inside the bank after he reactivated the security system and trapped a few officers inside the bank vault. It had provided a nice distraction for the money to be carried out discretely. From there it had been as simple as hot-wiring a car, making it to the drop point, and notifying the Penguin of what had happened. ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">So my gaggle of misfits, any of you gave any thought as to what you're going to do once we get payed?

So it was basically the afternoon now. Nothing much has happened since that event a few hours ago. Cassie yawned as she got out of her bedroom and on her way to the exit of the Mount Justice. She decided to go out and have an ice cream herself, since the others were probably a bit tired because of what happened. Hopefully nothing bad will happen as she gets her ice cream.

Cassie walked around, going to the park where the ice cream stand is mostly at. It was a beautiful day outside too! So no wonder why people love to eat ice cream in this time of day.~ Cassie sat down on a bench, eating her vanilla ice cream. Which she found to be very very delicious. If only the others were here! It would be so much funner!</div>"

A group of armed men entered the building in an attempt to steal from the bank's vault which contained hundreds of thousands of dollars. Police reports say that while the men were inside a bank security guard and an officer were both shot and killed in an attempt to stop the culprits. It was only when members of the superhero team Young Justice arrived that most of the suspects were apprehended however one of them who was suspected to be the leader, the masked criminal ""Orb Weaver"" managed to escape with a portion of the stolen money despite the efforts of the Young Justice team. The police say they are working hard to find this man and urges anyone with information on him to call their local precinct immediately. 

In other news the serial killer, dubbed The Meta Hunter, has claimed their sixth victim. Authorities found the body of Lucas Peyton in a dumpster this morning after reports of a foul stench like that of something burnt was detected. Lucas was a metahuman with a history of assault, larceny, and some ties to a small time metahuman gang.

The truth was, he had hardly spent any of the cash he'd earned since picking this career path. Only enough to survive on. Allowing these people or anyone for that matter to know this though, would be a huge mistake. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""I may not look it but I'm a gambler, maybe I'll pay off my bookie or who knows. Probably just bet on the next horse.""</font> he finished with a small scoff. It was a poor attempt at a bluff but they wouldn't know that from the limited information they had on him. He always distanced himself, just his default. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""Well lads, I'm gonna go for a stroll. I'll be in touch.""</font> said Bolt simply before vanishing in a loud crackling pop that left a small burn mark on the floor about shoulder length in diameter. The result from teleportation through electrons.

<span class=""bb-b"">-Now in the same time zone as everyone else-</span>

Warren had removed his suit and put on some regular clothes, the day was nice so he chose a pair of cargo shorts and a white T. He was walking through the park and admiring the sunshine and chirping birds, almost as a normal happy person would. In fact, he was following up on a lead from his contacts. Catching a glimpse now and then of a young brunette eating ice cream on a bench. Knowledge is power, as they say, and knowing your competition and their habits was always good for business. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""So young, appearing so fragile yet one punch from her could shatter bones. Strange world we live in, strange indeed.""</font> he thought to himself, commonly discussing the world around him in his thoughts. He walked past a tree and then there was a loud crack and a singed patch of grass. If she had noticed his presence, she surely would notice his absence and that was enough to plant the seed. The seed of mystery which was a weapon all of it's own if harnessed correctly.</div>"

Lucy was taking a break. She needed it badly after the day she had had. She had heard that Cassie had followed through on her plans to get ice cream and figured she'd enjoy the company, and plus, Lucy just really needed to talk to someone. So, Lucy made her way to the park, where she noticed a few people, including a man standing behind a tree. She paid him no mind though, seeing as how she had spotted Cassie on a bench. She walked over and sat down. ""Hey Cass,"" she said, sighing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">John aka TK</span></span>

John looked over at Orb weaver after he asked him what he'd be doing with his cut. He thought for a second before replying. ""I have a plan for it. I'm ambitious man, and right now, I've decided that I'm a very power hungry ambitious man. So not to sound cliche, but I'm thinking I'll use it to help fund my plans for world domination."" John said, smirking. He'd thought for a while about this plan and was already to start Phase 1, once he set up a base of operations that is. That's where the money came into play. Right now, he wanted control of Happy Harbor. He figured, if he built up a gang, he could throw a small coup, take over from the authorities, secretively of course, and then deal with Young Justice. Anyone who got in the way of that would be toast. John smiled to himself, envisioning a world where he was in complete control.</div>"

He had many more plans, but he was ready for a test flight.

He had been so excited by the prospect that he had missed the chance to go with Cassie for ice cream. That definitely put his mood down a bit. He felt like he hasn't exactly been the best boyfriend, or leader, and it bugged him. He chalked it up to being trained as a loner by his father, Green Arrow. He might be part of the league, but he couldn't be more alone. And Blue doesn't have a speedster friend to back him up.

Arrow set the prototype up for its first flight, and began putting on his high impact gear, which did make him look a bit more armored up. It consisted of lightweight composite plates and bulletproof webbing, keeping to his usual appearance and reducing friction and high impact damage. He put on his flight mask, one that helped regulate airflow and protect his face from the possible wind resistance. It was stylized after what was similar to a full faced gas mask, but shaped to his face better and it almost seemed to be based off Batman's cowl in form. He pulled his hood over and hopped on, activating the board from his wrist.

""If anybody needs me, I'll be out hopefully not smashing my face into the pavement."" He would broadcast to the team over his communicator. ""Also, I'd like to meet you for that ice cream, Cassie. Where can I find you?"" He would ask, although her communicated was tracking her position. He had put that feature into everyone's equipment, for obvious reasons. He already knew where to find her.

The board reacted to his feet as they locked into position. He had placed inhibitors in his mask to allow him to control it with voice, and hopefully, thoughts. It came to life under him, the thrusters quietly humming to life. The stealth aspect of the board was extremely important, and he had developed his own thruster system for this project. He was extremely proud to see it actually working! He began to lift from the ground, and he opened the hanger doors as he released the safety.

Blue Arrow couldn't believe the speed he was getting. He was going over 100mph on the first flight! He was experienced in extreme sports, making this seem like a snowboard with no slope. He was able to adjust his feet and move his body to the rhythm of his flight and smoothly maneuver through the air. 

""I can't believe it works!!"" He exclaimed as he dived down above traffic, testing the trust power as he approached Cassie. He had a small distance to cover, and he decided to try out a trick or two, boosting into flips and twists along the way. He felt exhilarated. And he felt proud to know he could finally be as fast as the others.</div>"

As she continue to lick her ice cream. Do not think negative people. Cassie noticed Lucy! ""Hey Lucy. How are you? Do you want some ice cream? This ice cream taste so good! And there are many flavors! I wanna taste it all!"" the amazonian giggled and noticed Blue Arrow with the new hover board. ""Wow. He is really happy that the board works. I hope he doesn't overdue it...!"" She said noticing the tricks he was doing. Cassie waved at Blue Arrow, happy to see her boyfriend. Hopefully he would becareful and not hurt himself.</div>"

The process was not a pleasant one, when he shifted to the Garmr it moved the bullet around his body and now the suit had to burrow it's way around Casan's body to find the bullet and extract it. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Next time I won't give them a chance to surrender, just take them by surprise and it'll be over quickly and with less bullet wound-Ah!""</span></font>, the suit had extracted the bullet and was now beginning to dress the wound.<font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""I guess I won't changing form for a while. Hopefully a week at the maxim-aah! Sar'tok!""</span></font>, he cursed once the suit began the process of forcing the split flesh back together. It released a disinfectant into the suit's interior which stung when it made contact with the wound. Next came the sealing which the suit took care of by releasing a gel that stuck onto the entry point and prevented blood loss and overtime would heal the wound. 

<font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Suit integrity at 89%, leg wound healing, now that this is taken care of I suppose I must find something else it occupy my time""</span></font>, Casan roamed the HQ for a while in search of something to do. He had eaten once he got back from the bank robbery, His suit was put away to repair itself, the only thing left to do he supposed was to check the monitors for signs of other Kartathans. He stood in front of the monitors, his black alien eyes darting every which way as data came up on screen. He knew the chances of finding another Kartathan were minimal to none but he still held onto hope. After a while of nothing he decided it was a waste of his time and so went out into the city in search of entertainment. 

Walking through the streets he received strange looks along with whispered insults as he passed by the citizens of Happy Harbour. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""When The city is under threat of destruction then I suppose they will be overjoyed to see me...""</span></font>, he said as if expecting someone to reply.

Warren's had been a fairly tame albeit reckless one, while John's had been the exact opposite. Before he had the chance to comment on this however, Bolt decided to take his leave with a final comment on how he'd be in touch. The criminal smirked and set his tablet on the crate, musing that he might have just found a partner on crime that would be useful in the future, possibly even two or three if he ran into John and Sarah again. Orb weaver was certain that the telepath would be down for anything that would benefit him, though the girl would prove to be a tricky one to win over. That could wait, for now it was time to hit the road, ""<font color=""#fff200""><span class=""bb-b"">Well, this has been a blast my telepathic friend, however I believe it's time that I bid you adieu.</span></font>"". Without even the slightest hesitation, Orb weaver pulled off his mask and ruffled his hair a bit. He shoved the mask, gun, and tablet into his bag and jumped off the crates, landing with a small grunt. ""<span class=""bb-b"">If you're ever looking to do something like this again, my usual hangout is the cafe on Mariner Avenue.

The board hovered with barely a sound beneath him as he looked to them, taking his flight mask off. Of course, beneath that still... was his mask.

He soon came across Guardian Angel and the dark powers within him seemed to shiver in disgust at the feeling of the good positive energy.

As he ate he overheard Cassie and Arrow talking, ""Well since he has a hover board now...anybody up for super powered basketball?""

--------------------------------------------------------

The streets were the only places someone like her could truly enjoy herself, every day was funny...everyone was scared. Happy harbor was by far the best town she'd stopped in, of course there were heroes here as well but nothing like Gotham and Metropolis, at least here she might have a chance of not getting interrupted. The air was ripe with the simple possibilities of the day, in her eyes she had an entire city to toy with, her hands almost trembled with unbridled excitement. As she walked the streets around her seemed dull, almost gray with the worry of an incoming storm. ""Shall we begin happy harbor?""</div>"

He planned to use these to test the heroes in happy harbor, he had only learned of them recently. After moving to Happy Harbor and establishing his bunker he had heard gossip of heroes, it was then Theo mentally kicked himself for not doing his research, but this could be a good thing as well. If he managed to take them down he would gain tons of 'street cred' with other villains.

But for now he had to do his research, his drones would be a test of sorts for the heroes. As he disconnected the drones power supplies he set the timer on their release and walked out of his bunker on the farthest edge of Happy Harbor. He had about an two hours to setup before the drones were released so he decided to set markers at the most crowded parts of the city, Theodore wondered into various crowds around the city and dropped his micro tracers, small chip like devices which transmitted to his drones.</div>"

John waved goodbye to Orb Weaver, noting his usual hangout. He was certain that Orb Weaver's skills might be of use in the future. After the other two had left, John made way to his newly bought car, a treat he had bought with some of the bank money. The car was a 1986 Alfa Romeo, the cash was resting in the trunk. John hopped in and started up the car, driving towards his next stop. Happy Harbor Luxury Apartments.

Lucy laughed at the others, smirking at Casan's surprise. She was happy to be with these people. They were kind of her second family when Torch thought about it. When Blue Arrow asked for an activity a light bulb went off in her head. ""We could go roller skating. I mean, normal friends tend to go roller skating and I think all of us need a healthy dose of normal in our lives.""</div>"

After having fled the mall, Hunter had taken it upon himself to move on. For one, it was stupid to stay in the same place unless one was hiding. Of course, he hated hiding, and there was no way he was going to do that. Likely they'd catch him later in the evening, and he'd beat up a couple of the cops before he allowed them to detain him. Of course, he'd only stay the night at their station before breaking out and beginning the cycle again. He hated the whole thing, it really pissed him off.

Currently, he was sitting in some sort of park, he didn't pay attention to which one. People were out walking dogs, eating ice cream, having fun. He hated that. How could people be so carefree when the world was so awful? It just didn't make sense. It also wasn't fair. Why should they be happy, why should they be content, when he was forced to suffer. Life gave him lemons, and he took those lemons and squeezed them in people's eyes. He was about to go into thinking on how to create lemon grenades, but his thought process was interrupted when a Frisbee hit his head. The round object bounced off his head and hit the floor, and a group of kids came running after it. Too bad for them, they threw it in just the wrong direction.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Mister, are you alright?""</span>

Hunter didn't even hear their words. He was seeing red, his anger rising to near visible levels. He turned to look in their direction, his red eyes coupled with his shadowed face created an incredibly menacing appearance that caused them to back away. His hands, gripped the edge of the bench he was sitting on, and had already began to bend the metal. By then, some of the other people began to notice this rather unstable person, their concern growing for the children.

Standing up, Hunter turned towards the children, towering over them. <span class=""bb-b"">""Alright? I am not ... alright""</span> He growled, as a man tried to grab his shoulder to pull him away from the children. The foolish man was punched across the field and into a tree. While he was focused on the man who had come from behind him, the children took the opportunity to flee. Like a predator, his attention switched back to them. Grabbing the Frisbee they had thrown at him, he examined it. His hand turned into a mechanical form, and he used it to cut the edge so it was sharp. Once done, he flung it at the children at a deadly speed. Little brats had better learn that this world could kill, and that those who were fortunate should damn grateful for it.</div>"

""Is there a problem?"" he asked the metahuman.

""<font color=""khaki""><span class=""bb-b"">Let's go to the Grotto.</span></font>"" Turning and taking the lead she headed to where she chose. The space was originally for meditation and has also become a memorial after Jason Todd's death. 

Moving to an open space GA spread her wings and held out her hands. A circle of light appeared on the floor and the tablet rose up out of it. Unlike the girl it's aura was neither light nor dark. Laying it down face up GA took a step back to give Charles room to look at it. The words carved over it were of a very old language but not an unknown one in the realm of magic users. For Charles it was not such a hard thing to translate.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Josephine: A Night Out</span></span>
The sound of a knocking on her door broke Josephine's focus towards the laptop screen. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah just a second!""</span></font>, she called out as she ran into her room to grab her things. Opening the door she was instantly greeted with a huh from Sera. <span class=""bb-b"">""So are you ready to go or what?""</span>, Sera asked before entering Josephine's apartment. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah just give me a second to...""</span></font>, she had forgotten to close her laptop which displayed all her blackmarket contacts, target information, future plans, and various other things which should not be seen by her normal life. She quickly went over to it and slammed it shut before Sera had a chance to look at the screen. <span class=""bb-b"">""What's up with you?""</span>, she asked <span class=""bb-b"">""You look on edge""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm fine I just was just..</span></font>, she looked towards the tv <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""thinking about the news""</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""Yeah I was watching it before I came over. Don't worry I'll protect you from the Meta Hunter""</span>, Sera replied mockingly. If only she knew the irony in that statement. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Very funny. Alright so you know that underground night club you always want to go to?""</span></font>
<span class=""bb-b"">""You didn't!""</span>

Josephine held up two sapphire colored tokens and smirked, <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Two VIP passes to Sin""</span></font>. Sera's reaction was priceless, she screamed and jumped for joy before hugging Josephine as hard as she could. Sin was the hottest underground nightclub in Happy Harbour and she and Josephine had VIP access passes to the members only area dubbed ""Lust"". <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Alright Alright, we should get going if we are going to make the most of the night""</span></font>, Josephine didn't have to wait for Sera as she had already run out the door. 

The two made their way through the streets of Happy Harbour and ended up in a dead end alley. At its end was a black door with a blue light shining down above it. There was a guard as well, he was tall and built and wore all black. The girls approached the door and the guard held up his hand signalling them to stop. Josephine presented the two sapphire tokens and the guard gave them a warm smile, <span class=""bb-b"">""Welcome to Sin, ladies. Enjoy your night""</span>. The door opened to reveal a dimly lit staircase and the <a href=""https://youtu.be/ZzPkpgWktQo"">the sound of dubstep could be heard below.</a> They reached the bottom and opened another door to reveal the nightclub in its full glory. The massive room walls were lined with artworks(not that they'd be seen properly as the only illumination was a series of strobe and purple lights. At the center was a large dance floor with color changing panels and at one end of it a DJ booth which was being operated by a Skrillex wannabe. The bar was top of the line with shelves upon shelves of alcoholic drinks, some many have never have heard of. Lastly at the far end of the room were double doors which led to the VIP area. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Lets have some fun here before going in to the VIP area!""</span></font>, Josephine had to practically scream to be heard by Sera. <span class=""bb-b"">""Sounds good to me!""</span>, she replied before leading Josie to the dance floor.

The night went by smoothly: the girls got their drinks, they danced a little, mingled with the other clubbers, and eventually made their way to the VIP area. It was mainly for Metas which was why Josephine got the passes, she had been planning to hit this place a while ago and figured now was the perfect time to get a look of the inside. Once inside the girls experienced the darker side of the club. There they found others getting...acquainted with each other along. Some were enjoying exotic narcotics and other not so legal indulgences. Josephine simply sat in their booth with a bottle of Ciroc as Sera tried a hallucinogenic plant called ""Ladric Leaf"". <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Are you feeling anything?""</span></font>, Josephine asked. Sera was in no condition to answer and was only able to yell out, <span class=""bb-b"">""WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!""</span>

The time was close at hand, his two hours were almost up. Now all he had to do was put himself in a good spot to watch, looking around he noticed a cafe with an excellent view of his targets. <span class=""bb-i"">Perfect</span>.

John strutted into the apartment building, a smirk on his face. The building was one of the bigger places in the coastal city, and was home to the richest citizens. It was the closest thing to luxury John would find in the city. He approached the man working the lobby, placing his hands on the desk and leaning forward. ""Sir, I would like to go about purchasing one of your abodes that you offer here. How would one go about that?"" he asked, grinning maliciously. The desk worker cautiously handed John some paperwork, never taking his eyes of him. He went and sat down, withdrawing a pen from his pocket. He filled out the paperwork then brought it back. The man cautiously told him that he'd have to wait a few days before he would actually own the apartment and be able to move in. John smirked before raising his hand and clenching it, emanating Darth Vader. The man clawed at his neck, choking. ""I need that apartment today. Alright?"" The man nodded and was rewarded with a gentle set down on his seat. He quickly gave John the keys to his new apartment, stating that a realtor would be by to see him tomorrow morning. ""Thank you,"" John glanced at the man's name tag, ""Arthur. I trust you'll keep this to yourself,"" John smiled before going out, grabbing his bags, then heading up to the seventh floor where he was released into his new apartment.

Lucy heard a child's scream and her head whipped around, just in time to see a man, his arms made of metal, hurl a Frisbee at a fleeing child. She reacted quickly, her palm shooting in front of her, splayed. The light from a nearby street lamp shot forward, solidifying and knocking the deadly flying disk off of it's intended path, instead it became lodged in a tree. Lucy began storming over to the man, her red hair giving her a look of an angry woman with fire on her head. Normally she would have a uniform on, but when she was off duty she went without.

So he decided to visit a man by the name of Radomir, an elderly gentlemen of Czech decent. The same man that designed and built the suit that Warren wears to adorn the guise of Bolt, the Shocking Merc. He zipped through the power lines within Gotham until finally reaching his target location. Shooting out of the cable and quickly reverting back to normal as he landed. Warren cracked his neck to the left and right before entering the door. Descending down the stairs to the basement was the only way to reach Radomir but not before stopping at a heavy steel door with a number pad entry lock. Warren entered the 6 digit code and passed through the threshold of a brilliant inventor.

Walking into the first open door put Warren inside the developmental room where he was easily able to find the grey bearded man. <font color=""#f7976a"">""Ah, mister Bolt, jak se máte? How are you?""</font> he repeated in english, some times forgetting that he slips into his native tongue from time to time. <font color=""#f7976a"">""I hope there's nothing wrong with the suit.""</font> Radomir added with a worried look. <font color=""#ed1c24"">""It's fine. Just dropped by to see if you had any new projects.""</font> said Warren as he looked around, glancing at the various gadgets and vials that lined the shelves. <font color=""#f7976a"">""I do have something you may like.""</font> Radomir said with a devilish grin. He walked over to a desk and handed a small metal puck to Warren. <font color=""#f7976a""><font color=""#f7976a""><font color=""#f7976a"">""This is one of a few prototypes that I've designed especially for you. Simply apply an electric current and throw. The device has a 3 second delay before emitting wide arcs of radiant electric current for about 10 seconds. Great for setting traps, distractions or whatever clever use you can think of.""</font></font></font> he said with a pleased tone. 

<font color=""#ed1c24"">""And how many of these do you have?""</font> Warren asked but as he did, Radomir handed him 4 more. <font color=""#f7976a"">""I will begin making more now that I can see they have caught your interest. You must leave me to work. Good day to you mister Bolt.""</font> he said in joking manner but he turned his back to the desk and began tinkering on what must have been another puck. Warren slipped the 5 he had been handed into his pockets and headed out. Radomir gave Bolt his brilliant prototypes in exchange for help acquiring rare materials or components. This was the nature of their relationship. Once Warren was back outside, he stretched a little before looking up at the clouds and closing his eyes. In a flash and loud crack, he vanished.</div>"

In one hand dangled a small brown cardboard box tat vibrated and let out a small squeak every now and then. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Oi, keep it down in there.</span>"" Jacque said as he shook the box a bit, rattling the rather fat rat inside into silence.

It didn't take long, as all he had to do was look in the direction that some of the children and their parents fled from. The sight before him was indeed a spectacle to behold as several people began duking it out. At first it seemed to Jacque like a few people that had drank a bit too much or maybe some some sort of turf war, however both theories were tossed out of the window as one transformed into a massive gorilla, and another one looked a lot like the one he'd kicked in the head and held at gun point earlier in the day. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Nnnnope.</span>"" Jacque said with a deadpan expression as he kept on walking, keen on avoiding what he could only assume to be the heroes he'd narrowly escaped from.

Jacque's crime of the day was done, now all he wanted to do was go home, feed his pet, and peruse the internet for a new laptop. Maybe if the mood struck him, he'd go blow some of his money on overpriced drinks and other sorts of questionable vices, but for now, simply avoiding the carnage was good.</div>"

Saying them to herself a few times she picked the message apart. For Sarah she had context to go with the message. She knew that the stone had done to her, she had just lacked the why. The first part sounded like you couldn't hide anything. The wish of the heart was a little more confusing. Did it mean it would expose what you really wanted? And there was of course the ending which made it seem like a wish would be granted. 

If that was the case then it suddenly made sense why people would be after the thing. Something that could grant a wish would be absolutely priceless. She would have been seriously underpaid for a relic like this. But that still didn't quite explain why it made her a hero. Starting to pace she looked back through her memory in search for the answer. As far as she knew being a hero was never a thing she wanted. The whole reason she had been doing jobs was to keep above water. And in the case of the last job she could have been comfortable.

It was then that a more obvious answer dawned on her. What if being a hero wasn't what that was granted? Stopping mid pace she though back to that night. She had been thinking of her mother. Still not making complete sense she followed that back further to when she was younger. Probably like many mothers, Sarah's had always called the her her Little Angel. It was a detail that was buried along with a lot of other memories after her mother passed away in an accident. She had made a promise to her and never kept it. 

At first she didn't notice, but she had she'd a few tears rolling down her cheek. Hoping that Charles hadn't noticed she wiped them away and turned slightly. ""<font color=""khaki""><span class=""bb-b"">I think I get it now.</span></font>""</div>"

Jacque's brow quirked a bit as he read the expression on their faces: some were scared, some excited, and some seemed absolutely livid. Perhaps it was because he was still bitter about his near thwarted robbery, or maybe because he wanted to see just how good he was at swaying people, but Jacque couldn't help but think of a way to use the crowd of onlookers to hassle the team of young heroes a bit. The criminal slipped into the crowd, standing in between an older man with a scowl, and a woman with her hands clasped over her mouth, and put on a hate filled glare ""<span class=""bb-b"">This isn't right.</span>"", he said, grabbing their attention. Jacque looked at the man and woman and gestured to the heroes, ""<span class=""bb-b"">What? You don't see the problem here? They just came in swinging! Not a single one of those ""heroes"" tried to get people to safety. I mean come on, there are CHILDREN here and they're acting like they don't care!</span>"" Jacque hissed venomously. As a few more people turned their attention to Jacque, older man's scowl deepened further, ""<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Hey, hey yeah you're right! They just started fighting</span></span>"". A cacophony of murmurs began to arise from the crowd just before a teenage girl just a bit younger than Jacque spoke up, ""<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">Wait, I saw one of them deflect the weapon the bad guy was using!</span></span>"" she said in defense of the team, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Oh yeah? Well I didn't see her LOOK where she threw it. What if she'd redirected it at someone else?</span>"" Jacque spat back. 

The crowd now circled around Jacque, their eyes on him as he internally chuckled despite his sever expression, ""<span class=""bb-b"">What do you suppose would happen if someone got hurt by their actions, huh!? What, you think they'll try to reimburse you or settle it in court? NO! These people think that their powers make them above the law, and i'm sick of it! Who's looking out for us when these people destroy our property? You think your insurance company is going to cover your vehicle after one of them pancakes it and uses it as a bludgeon!?</span>"" The criminal roared indignantly. The murmurs in the crowd began to rise in volume as the mixture of emotions in the crowd began swaying closer towards ire. Jacque stood quietly as the people worked themselves up even further before he decided to stir up the hornets nest even further, ""<span class=""bb-b"">And what about what happened today, huh? Two men DIED in that bank robbery and they let one of the robbers escape! I bet they didn't even TRY to look for the last guy! Imagine what the families of those men must be going through knowing that one of the potential killers is still out there!</span>"". In truth Jacque's last statement made him feel a bit guilty as he was talking about himself. Mentioning the deaths of the officers to get a rise out of others felt low, even for him, however he pushed the thought away as it got the desired result. Now just about everyone in the crowd was angry, even the girl who'd originally defended the heroes. ""<span class=""bb-b"">I say we stop letting vigilantes who think they're above the law continue putting people in harm's way! LET'S LET THEM KNOW THEY'RE NOT WANTED!</span>"" Jacque snarled before pointing at the group of combatants in the park.

The people didn't need to be told twice; they instantly turned and began marching towards the heroes and villains that did battle in the park, all traces of fear gone as they hurled all manner of insults and vulgar gestures at Casan, Nikolai, Torch, and Hunter. All of them except one: Jacque. Jacque stood back, all traces of his fake anger replaced with a smug smirk as he took a moment to admire his handiwork, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Let's see how you all like being held up.</span>"" he said to himself before turning and continuing on his merry way home, enjoying the sounds of indigence from the folks he'd riled up even as they began to get fainter with his increasing distance.</div>"

However, rather than be stunned or knocked out, he merely grunted from the sudden force. His metal arms gave him significant strength, and he knew it.

He doubted any creature had the strength to hold this man down and his venom would not have an effect on him either. Time was ticking and Casan was scrambling through his memories to find something useful. <span class=""bb-i"">""Perfect""</span>. Casan's gorilla form underwent a terrifying transformation. The ape began to melt down as if it had been liquified. First the skin and flesh came off, sloshing down like mud off a wall. The bones followed suit but appeared as if they had lost all rigidity before becoming liquid. The process was fast and upon its completion revealed that Casan had become a symbiote. Now all he had to do was wait for the metal man to make a move.

Before he could though Casan noticed the crowd of onlookers were no longer witnesses to the altercation but participants. They were after not only the one who endangered the children but he and Torch as well. <span class=""bb-i"">""There is no pleasing these people""</span>, he thought to himself. Now things had become complicated. Should he continue to fight this man and risk hurting civilians or fall back and let him escape. There's no way I'm changing again.

He wanted to recon the area and see if any of the Young Justice members had shown but a much better event had occurred, Warren approached the crowd to see what was happening. He passed by a man that he believed to be Orb Weaver but perhaps this was his true identity. Bolt gave the casual head nod but kept moving, not wanting to miss an opportunity to test out his new toys. 

Now only 30 feet away from the crowd, all of their attention on the commotion ahead which Bolt still hadn't identified. It was likely a super powered battle but it could have easily been two chimps fighting with pocket knives. He didn't know, he didn't care. His hand reached for his belt and grabbed one of the pucks, readying it with his throwing arm. He sent a small charge through it to arm it and then let it fly past the crowd in hopes that whatever they were watching would have to deal with it.</div>"

As the secret doors opened up a dozen black armored drones flew up into the sky, spraying their jet exhaust from their feet across the air as they flew around. The drones themselves looked like black mannequins, they had red 'V's in the place of their eyes, spiked knuckles, black armor, and fearsome skull like faces.

The drones separated into groups of four as they scanned the town for their targets. The first four separated and left for the gas station, the brand name was unimportant. What was important was the fact that gasoline was flammable, and perfect choice for bait. The drones immediately sparked off yellow lasers from their hands, the first barrage missed, simply hitting windows or advertisements in order to allow time for any civilians to run off. Killing was not their current objective. The next wave however pierced the building itself, various gas pumps, and even a car. The gas pumps ignited then exploded into brilliant fires spreading out far into the sky and the area around them. The car exploded as well when the blasts from the drones pierced it's metal covering. The building's ceiling caved in as the robots blasted it, the explosion collapsed what was left. As the entire establishment went up in flames the robots stayed, continuing to shoot targets that no longer existed.

The second squad veered off towards the supermarket, with no explosives present inside the damage would be considerably less. The first barrage fired into the air or harmlessly into empty parking spots. After a minute or two the robots began again, this time aiming their laser fire at the supermarket. Their blasts pierced straight through the ceiling collapsing parts of it, two of the robots separated and began firing at cars in the parking lot.

The final group flew towards a bank. However it seemed the tracer present at the bank was carried off, someone with gum under their shoe must have stepped over it and carried it with them. The man who had unknowingly carried the tracker with him was currently in the park, enjoying a run with his dog. The drones homed in on the tracer and began a barrage. At first they missed, but their programming prevented them from purposefully targeting civilians so they continued to miss, at least until they would be attacked.</div>"

Rather than the satisfying feel of metal hitting flesh, his fist flowed through his now semi-liquid enemy. Momentarily confused, Hunter took the time to check again that his enemy was no longer completely solid. Another punch confirmed it, as it wasn't very effective. However, rather than try and think of a way to beat his opponent, he merely kept throwing punches. Each time his attack failed, he grew angrier. Soon he was seeing red again, completely absorbed in beating his already viscous enemy into a pulp. Of course, he didn't even notice the liquid was sticking to him. Eventually, his fists became noticeably stuck, and he could no longer punch easily.

Now Hunter was pissed. Some asshole thought he could control his actions. Like some kind of annoying puppet master. As the black sticky ... stuff, slowly enveloped him, he fought with all his might. That said, he was caught off guard by the initial assault, giving the impression he was easily contained. That was about when he began rallying.

Using his strength, Hunter managed to slowly overcome the annoying sticky stuff. Although it took a considerable amount of his energy, and likely he would tire out eventually. Not to say that he didn't fight like an animal. Lots of kicking, punching, and jerking in various ways in an attempt to remove the annoyance from his skin. By the end of his counterattack, he was breathing heavily, and noticeably drained of energy.</div>"

The reporter on scene was talking about multiple explosions from a gas station, and a group of robots bombarding a supermarket. <span class=""bb-i"">Are the heroes of this Earth on vacation? How could they get so lazy?</span> Daniel rushed to a hidden closet and pulled out his outfit, quickly putting it on he realized that the daylight wouldn't help hide him, but he couldn't stay within the shadows of this world forever. Eventually he had to come out, and that time was now.

Opening his window he quickly dived out in order to reduce the chance of him being spotted. This wasn't his Earth, but he still had an identity to protect. Pulling out his grappling hook he began to swing and jump off rooftops until he reached the nearby supermarket. It didn't take long for him to figure out the cause, a terrorist attack by a group of robots. Perhaps when he finds the regular heroes he would be able to gather more information, but for now he had to fight. He aimed his grapple at one of the robots and pulled himself up to it, moving at rapid speeds he aimed himself into a kick, colliding with the robot he swiftly left an small object on the robots head.

""Don't talk to me you prepubescent sounding ape! Stay out of my way!"" he shouted at the beast as it went on the attack, then more heroes began to join the fray. he then saw the crowd of angry bastards march towards and he didn't think twice and threw a explossive sawblade which detonated and created a powerful blast that killed at least seven people and maimed several more. Nikolai smiled at their screams, serves them right for messing with him.

""Don't fuck with a Russian you American pigs!"" he shouted at the screaming people who had fled.

His curiosity mounting, Jacque pulled his phone from his back pocket and prepared to check his weather app for signs of an impending storm, but instead ended up clicking his news app as it had a new notification. Jacque read quietly, his nose crinkling as he sneered with distaste, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Robots attacking the city? What is this, national mayhem day!?</span>"" he growled. With a sigh, Jacque unlocked the door and stepped inside, wondering as he walked towards the elevator whether or not the robots causing a ruckus actually served a purpose beyond just destroying things. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Y'know, the more I think about it, the more I feel as though crime as a whole is declining in quality. I hope whoever's behind this is at least taking the opportunity to rob someplace important or something.</span>"" he said as he lifted the little brown box and shook it a bit.

After arriving at the elevator, it was just a short trip to the 11th floor and down the hall to the left before Jacque made it to and entered his apartment. ""<span class=""bb-b"">Daddy's home Remi. Dinner time.</span>"" Jacque all but sang as he strode over to the massive plant filled terrarium that doubled as a television stand. The occupant of this tank was unable to hear Jacque, however the sudden vibrations resulted in a large scaled head to emerge from under a leaf. Jacque grabbed his snake hook from atop the television and stooped down to unlock the cage, scooting a bit to the side in case Remi came out biting. Moving with the sort of speed and fluidity forged from years of practice, Jacque unlocked the cage, opened the rat's box, opened the cage, tossed the rodent in, and closed and relocked the cage just seconds before Remi lunged out in all of his glory. The rat never even got the chance to explore the cage as eight feet of false water cobra bit down on it's face and coiled around it, chewing in venom as it did so. Jacque stood up and dusted his hands off, ignoring the squeals of pain as he walked towards his kitchen. Watching the heroes flail about could wait, for now he wanted a bite to eat.</div>"

While it would free Hunter of Casan's grasp if he survived the explosion was unknown. Casan on the other hand would survive as his symbiote form was simply broken into pieces and scattered over the area. It did not cause pain but what came next would. The puck to his surprise released, what seemed to Casan to be, bolts of lightening that struck one of the fragments of him. Despite being separate from each other all the pieces felt the effects of the shock as the heat from it burned Casan. The pieces of his symbiote form which at first appeared smooth and liquid became rough and angular like it had become a solid within seconds. <span class=""bb-i"">""The city is under attack and I'm stuck having to handle this madman.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Josephine: Back to Work</span></span>

The party was still going strong until the sounds and vibrations of explosions nearby were sensed. The nightclub fell into pure silence as everyone tried to figure out what was happening. <span class=""bb-b"">""The city is under attack!""</span>, yelled a man within the crowd, <span class=""bb-b"">""I'm on my phone right now and it says robots are attacking!""</span>. Everyone crowded around him to see for themselves. Once their suspicion was confirmed there was a variety in reaction. Some ran out trying to get home as fast as possible, others stayed for fear of being killed on the way home, while others still partied either out of indifference to the situation or because they wanted one last dance before they died. Sera's hallucinogen had worn off now and she looked to Josephine in fear, <span class=""bb-b"">""Shit, what do we do?""</span> she asked as she sat further back in their booth. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""It's not safe here. My guess these people will get violent soon and you can't be anywhere near when that happens""</span></font>, Josephine got out of the booth and looked for the exit. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Come on, we're going to your place""</span></font>, she called out to Sera who followed close behind. 

Once outside they realised the severity of the situation. Humanoid machines were raining down lazer fire on the city below as people ran is fear. The explosion left a pillar of smoke which could be seen from where the girls were. It was madness and she knee this couldn't have been caused by any normal individual. No it seemed her quarry had grown in number. While she suspected the ""heroes"" had nothing to do with this she was sure there was a metahuman behind the attacks. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Follow me, this way!""</span></font>, she yelled for Sera to follow and the two girls ran through the chaotic city streets dodging lasers and explosions caused by the sheer chaos going down. It took some time but eventually they arrived at Sera's apartment. 

Once inside Sera sat down on the couch and switched on the tv, <span class=""bb-b"">""Havoc in Happy Harbor as the hero team ""Young Justice"" fights an army of robots who have attacked the city causing a gas station to explode. The heroes have been seen combating the machine but unfortunately have been made the center of the city's anger as mobs have been seen throughout the city. When asked by our on scene reporter, Vincent Clark, members of the mob stated they are fed up with the collateral damage caused by the heroes and are saying no more to it. We'll have more information as the situation develops""</span>. Sera was infuriated, <span class=""bb-b"">""Great, just fucking great! Not only do we have to worry about a psychopath going around killing supers but the whole city hates them too!""</span>. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""The supers are a danger to the city Sera, people have a right to be angry""</span></font>

<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""No I mean that even though you aren't a danger now, things could change. And I'm not saying you specifically""</span></font>, that last part was a lie. Josephine did believe Sera could turn out to evil. She thought that every super had the the capacity to do wrong and so when she found one that did she executed them without hesitation. It was only by doing this that she could prevent them from continuing down their path of destruction. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Listen I need to get to my apartment, you stay inside and I'll see you soon""</span></font>, Josephine didn't wait for Sera's response. She dashed out the door and back into the battlefield that was Happy Harbor. Her house was still standing thankfully and she quickly got inside. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Those drones need to be taken out before I go after the ones responsible""</span></font>, she got into her costume and put on her mask. Once the mask was on Josephine was gone, The Pariah had taken her place. Grabbing the SWC-Volt Rifle from the closet she left her apartment and began her counterattack against the drones. 

<span class=""bb-i"">""Stun setting won't be enough to bring down those drones</span>, she thought before setting her rifle to kill. She aimed her rifle upwards towards the first drone she saw and fired away. The shot met its mark and the drone went haywire for a moment before plummeting down towards the her. She quickly activated her hardlight shield and braced for impact. The drone hit hard but the shield was able to withstand most of the impact. However the force caused Pariah to stumble back a few feet. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""The one time I'd actually ask for the heroes and they are nowhere to be found""</span></font>, however her frustration was put to an end as she looked up to see GA fending off the drones. <span class=""bb-i"">""Good.

Fantastic, she just wasted an attack. Being right in front of the robot was not an ideal place to be while it was still firing either. Dropping down she circled around to the two other drones to draw their attention. She looked for the last one but it wasn't in the sky anymore. She saw it on the ground near some woman with a shield. GA would thank her but there were more pressing matters. Having drawn the things fire she flew at level or slightly above their altitude to prevent their lasers from hitting anyone on the ground. A couple of the blasts did hit her wings. It hurt like hell but she had to finish the job. Breaking she formed small barriers in front of the robots palms. Hoping they could hold up perhaps she could disarm the drones.</div>"

""Who ever you are, take out the body! The head doesn't matter, obviously the important parts are all inside the torso!"" Daniel shouted to GA through his mask, he noticed that she was blocking their hands so they couldn't attack. But he couldn't be sure that would hold them.

The criminal might not have been willing to admit it, but while he wasn't usually a fan of mindless chaos, it did make for a good show when one could sit on the sidelines and spectate without risk to themselves. The sounds of gunfire could be heard in the distance, likely from people either fighting off the drones or capitalizing on the disorder and mayhem. The gas station down the street seemed to be particularly lively, as evidenced by the smoke clouds that billowed up from that direction.  After finishing his sandwich, Jacque stood up and brushed some crumbs from his clothing. ""<span class=""bb-b"">I wonder if someone's got a live stream of what's happening up on the internet. I gotta check it out.</span>"" Jacque said to himself as he stepped inside, only to freeze and spit out a particularly colorful stream of profanity as the mentioning of the internet reminded him of his destroyed laptop. Jacque scratched the back of his head and sighed, ""<span class=""bb-b"">Guess i'll go out and steal a new one while this crap is going down. Damn I don't wanna deal with this garbage. Ah well, at least I won't have to spend money.</span>"". Jacque went into his room and grabbed his bag, mask, a collapsible baton, and his handgun along with two magazines, then exited his flat once more, sparing a passing glance at Remi's cage just as the serpent finished swallowing it's meal.

As he rode the elevator down, Jacque slipped his weapons into his coat and put on his mask, donning once more his Orb weaver persona. Once the elevator hit the bottom floor and opened, Orb weaver smirked beneath his mask, ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">Here's hoping those heroes are too busy to deal with lil' old me.</font></span>"".</div>"

The news reporters were quickly on the scene of course and dutifully reported on the events.

With two drones down thanks to Talon and Pariah.

The Skinwalker finally had Hunter subdued when another sawblade impacted him. This time instead of exploding it released an electric current through the symbiote Casan causing him to writhe in pain. Since he was wrapped around Hunter the current passed to him and due to his metallic nature absorbed the current and sent it into the ground((talking out of my ass here, this is what I get for not paying attention in physics)). The shock proved to be quite effective as Casan lost his grip on Hunter and the symbiote oozed off like mucus on a wall.

Casan saw Charles' summoned undead and was grateful for the assistance. He shifted back to his normal self. To his surprise after the symbiote change his wound had been healed as a result of the formless symbiote. Despite the multiple brutal hits he took it seemed to only have injured him when he was a symbiote, <span class=""bb-i"">""Thank the gods for symbiote durability. Looks like I'm back to full functionality""</span>, he thought before changing into a Eurasian Black Vulture. The sheer size of the creature should be enough to brind down a few drones. With a single powerful flap of his wings Casan took off and towards the attacking drones. He flew up as high as he could before nosediving towards one of the drones. About 3 meters away he put forwards his talons and prepared to claw at the drone. He made contact but it wasn't enough to bring automaton down. He clawed at the joints repeatedly until he realized it was not making a difference. <span class=""bb-i"">""Perhaps..""</span>, instead of changing into another animal he simply increased this shape's size. By the time he was done his size was comparable to a pterodactyl. <span class=""bb-i"">""Alright let's try this again!""</span>, he said to himself right before biting off the head of the drone with his massive beak. The drone, to his surprise, did not go down and was still trying to shoot Casan down. Unfortunately for the drone Casan did not halt his assault either. Clawing at the torso of the drone Casan finally managed to bring the machine down. As he watched it plummet into the raging city streets below his only words were, <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""May the gods help us all..""</span></font> and with that he flew off to provide backup for his teammates. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">The Pariah: Unlikely Allies</span></span>
Pariah was making progress, one by one she shot down the drones and the ones she missed the heroes took care of. However she noticed a couple were trying to beat down GA and she quickly took aim and fired two shots at the drones. While the chances of GA getting hit with a fatal electric round was likely Pariah figured it would be to her benefit if either her or the drones got hit.

Next was the gas station, Pariah ran as fast as she could(which was somewhere between 25-30mph)through town while taking down as many drones as she could. Upon arriving at the gas station she saw a huge pillar of black smoke rising towards the sky. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm not going to feel bad about killing the bastard who started this""</span></font>, she said before taking aim at the remaining four drones at the gas station. There she saw Wonder Girl and some electric humanoid fighting off the drones. <span class=""bb-i"">""Looks like the whole gang is out tonight""</span>, she thought before blasting a drone out the sky near Wonder Girl hoping to get her attention.

The drones took the brunt of the shock but there was still enough traveling down to lock up her limbs. Tensing up she dropped with the bots and didn't break away until the shocking ended. Even so GA didn't have the motor control she needed to fly and plummeted out of the sky. Not having many options she created a barrier around herself to absorb some of the impact.</div>"

His communicator was buzzing, his TACPAD was lit up like a Christmas display. And everyone burst into action almost immediately.

He did the one thing he could in this situation. Everyone was in full panic, and he threw down his hover board and began zipping around, saving anyone who could be in harms way. He escorted them well behind the crowd that was now berating and calling them off. He sighed to himself. ""When will these people ever learn!"" He began making it more obvious that he was helping, until he realized that the crowd was pushing in on the action and trying to do... Something? 

Arrow couldn't help but get angry. He was a well known hero and was tired of being pushed around by the public. He preferred working in shadows than like this. Quickly thinking, as he had already pulled out his bow to deal with the drones, Arrow fired off a couple shots aimed at placing cables between the people and the action, effectively creating a taped off wall. He then fired a few flares into the air for attention, as well as a few more explosive arrows at the drones, straight into their bodies and destroying them a second later in a controlled blast that would destroy their insides.

""People of Happy Harbor! We are attempting to contain the outbreak of attacks now! I have moved all occupants of the area away from he fighting to prevent further injuries. Please, I have to ask you all to calm down and move away from the park!"" His voice projected from a loudspeaker as he strafed in the air in front of the people. ""Yes this situation has gotten out of hand, but my new team and I are trying to contain it. We need your help as well! I don't have any super powers. That doesn't mean I'm not a hero. Everyone has to do their part to make it work, and I can't protect you if you continue to throw yourselves towards the danger at hand. Please, heed my words and stand back!"" With the finality of his words, Arrow immediately began to circle the park. ""Team!"" He would shout into his communicator, ""I need everyone to report NOW! I'm ready to create a plan of action, but I need you all to listen up and follow suit! Do you read?""

It also meant that her ability to get around was severely hindered. That wasn't the only problem either. She was starting to run low on energy as a whole. Straightening out the broken wing she reached up and used her magic to at least heal that much. Of course she wasn't going anywhere any time soon on her own.

Pariah in the meantime was providing cover for the members of Young Justice when she heard Blue Arrow's reply, <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'll get the civilians out of the crossfire so long as Skinwalker provides aerial cover""</span></font>, another explosion went off near the gas station. The drones managed to blow up the fuel tank of a nearby car causing the gas station sign to come down like a tree. The resulting collapse crushed another car and sent shrapnel flying everywhere with one cutting through the sleeve of Pariah and leaving a nasty cut. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""The situation is getting out of control! Once this is taken care of meet me in the park!""</span></font> She cut off her communicator and directed her attention to moving the innocents out of danger.

The drones won't be able to reach you as easily!""</span></font>, she knew the drones wouldn't follow at all but they didn't. Pariah knew that if she showed them a way out they'd take it. But of course someone had to a stubborn ass, a man within the crowd yelled out, <span class=""bb-b"">""Why should we trust you? You're a super!""</span>
<font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Would you rather tell me off than get to safety? If that's so be my guest! Anyone else?""</span></font>, the man quickly shut up and moved with the crows through the alleyway. <span class=""bb-i"">""Alright most of them should be heading towards this exit. Now to finish off these drones""</span>. Before she could head out again something slammed into the ground. Running at full speed Pariah neared the crater to find Wonder Girl in it, <span class=""bb-i"">""I don't have time for this""</span> She groaned as she went into the crater to get the amazonian back on her feet. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""Come on, get up!""</span></font>, she said as she put Wonder Girl's over her shoulder. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""I'm not carrying your ass through this whole thing now get up!""</span></font>

Casan managed to take out the drone and heard GA over his communicator, <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Angel report. Angel report!...Damn""</span></font> He flew back to the supermarket to find GA on a rooftop. He swooped down to check on her hoping she was still in fighting condition. It didnt take long for him to notice the broken wing, <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""How bad is it?""</span></font> He asked.

He walked in, heedless of the clerks hiding behind the counters as he pulled out his gun and used it to smash open a watch case, ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">Don't mind me folks, just came in to sample a few of your goods. Oh, and for any of you considering hitting a silent alarm, the police have their hands full as is, let's not be inconsiderate here. Heh heh.</font></span>"".

Orb weaver remained unharmed, however now there was something embedded in his bag, which in all likelihood might have.

<span class=""bb-i"">""Wait a second...The park...someone started the riot.

Orb Weaver with his gun pointed at someone. <span class=""bb-i"">""Not again""</span>, Casan said to himself. The Skinwalker nosedived down towards the two pulling up at the last second and slamming into the ground like a dragon coming down to destroy a village.

He reared his head up and released that horrible roar once again. <span class=""bb-i"">""Things are going to end a lot differently if you don't surrender""</span>, of course he didn't say this to Orb Weaver.

With numbers stacking against him, Orb weaver contemplated just putting back the jewelry so long as the heroes agreed to do him a favor in the future.

In another part of the city Serena was walking about when she saw the news being played inside of a coffee shop, the city was in absolute chaos and now was the time. Serena took off into the air now donning her Yellow Lantern Corp outfit, moments later she arrived on scene where a two men in masks seemed to be under attack from some hero who had turned himself into a dinosaur, A wicked smirk played across the obviously insane snakewoman's lips, she used her ring to create an RPG and just before she fired it at the dinosaur she screamed in her best attempt at a movie voice, ""Say hello to my little friend!!!"" The rocket fired and before anyone could react she had summoned two rapid fire SMG's and started unleashing hell on the hero, ""This is fun! We're having fun now right?!!!???""

The last remaining droids, including the one Morningstar was currently holding, all began to spew a stronger jet of energy from their feet. One droid was currently on the floor when the signal went off, soon enough it shot into the air bringing down a billboard, another was currently flying through the air after being hit by Morningstar, it shot off back towards the ground and exploded into a parking lot.</div>"

Before he could figure out what it was bullets rained down on him. The explosion didn't rend flesh but the impact did manage to do a number on his rib cage. The bullets delta like he was getting hit with hundreds of metal ball bearings which bruised and broke the skin of the gigantic dinosaur. <span class=""bb-i"">""I'll deal with you later...""</span>, he thought before taking off to confront the woman who attacked him. It didn't take long for him to reach her and when she was within range he began to snap at her with his jaws. At one point he managed to get a good look at her and realized she was not human. Humanoid maybe but definitely not human. He checked to see it she was Kartathan but it quickly became apparent she was not. For a moment before this realization he had a sliver of hope that another of his kind, despite being his opponent, had made it to earth. Now that hope was gone and in its place was the need to bring this snakewoman down along with Orb Weaver.</div>"

He should have been damaged allot more, Serena flew back and created a giant net right over top of the giant dinosaur to keep it from eating her, ""AHHHHHH DON'T EAT ME!!! I JUST WANTED TO HAVE FUN!!!"" Serena started crying a bit as she made twin miniguns on each side of her and hid behind them, ""YOU'RE A BULLY!!!"" She continued to cry as she unleashed a wall of gunfire that could have destroyed a city block, ""I'm a super hero!!! I won't let you hurt these people!!!""

Morningstar watched in slow motion as the droid he had smacked back exploded on the ground, Morningstar threw down a bolt of magic to contain the explosion an in the same motion took the robot he was holding and shot up after the one that had hit the billboard grabbing them both and taking them high above the city and smashing them together crushing them as the exploded around him.

""I had that under control."" Talon muttered under his breath. Then all of a sudden a voice far in the air shouted a line from Scarface. Taking notice Talon took the chance to dive for cover behind a building. The explosion from the yellow lantern's rocket forced Talon to the ground, along with tossing up dirt around the area. As yellow bullets rained down on the area, mostly on the animal hero, Talon took notice that it was a yellow lantern attacking. ""Call your friends!"" Talon shouted as he tossed his smoke bomb high into the air, and at the lantern. ""We can't take her like this!"" Talon continued as he saw a net being formed over Casan.</div>"

She seemed...unstable. However to someone just arriving this would be a confusing situation to comprehend. His first thought was to shift to normal form but realized that would leave him vulnerable to her machine gun attacks. In an attempt to fall back a net fell over him and he was pinned to the ground. Suddenly a smoke bomb obscured his sight of his reptilian attacker and Talon suggested he contact the team. <span class=""bb-i"">""...why did I hesitate to do that in the first place""</span>, he thought to himself as he activated his communicator. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Team this is Skinwalker, I have two hostile supers at my position.

Pariah was engaging the now scattered final swarm when they suddenly began to go haywire. Flying every which way and exploding the second they made contact with something. One managed to come dangerously close and the shrapnel of the resulting impact smashed into her mask. Thankfully all that was destroyed was the part of the mask covering her left eye. <font color=""#f7941d""><span class=""bb-b"">""The drones seem to be self destructing.

""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">I'm either the luckiest man alive, or the universe just likes to watch me squirm.</font></span>"" He growled as he stood up and examined himself a bit. His ribs still hurt, and at least one of them was likely bruised, however nothing felt broken at the time. The criminal noticed his gun lying not too far off from him and retrieved it before taking aim at the massive outline of Casan, still slightly visible through the smoke. ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">You know, I don't think i'll feel too guilty about killing you. After all, it isn't murder if you aren't human.</font></span>"" He hissed with a sneer as he opened fire.

The combined fire of the Serena and Orb Weaver began to take its toll on him as each round slammed into his leathery hide. He could feel each round getting closer to breaking skin and sure enough it did. The bullets became lodged in him but not deep enough to kill him. However blood was spilt and it was unlike the crimson color most would expect to see, Casan's blood was a dark green but not as thick as human blood. In fact it flowed out as quickly as water from a hole in a balloon. His strength to fight was waning as his resistive stance soon gave way as he lowered his head and onto the ground.

""No!"" Talon shouted as he tossed a four of his kunai at the gun and the hand holding it, intending to wound him forcing him to drop the gun, or disabling the weapon entirely. Then using his other hand he pulled out his grapple gun. Springing towards Casan Talon gripped the wounded hero as best as he could and tied the grapple around his body. <span class=""bb-i"">Why is this guy so big</span>? Talon asked himself. Then aiming his grapple gun he fired it onto a rooftop, lifting up the wounded hero, with Talon hitching a ride on his back. As they emerged on the rooftop Talon threw another smoke barrage into the air, hoping to keep the Lantern's sight off of them until Casan's friends could arrive. <span class=""bb-i"">She obviously has light, but what good is that if there's smoke everywhere</span>.</div>"

Morningstar Radioed back in, ""<font color=""#fff200"">Casan...I'm close...I'm on my way...Hold on for me bro.</font>"" Morningstar took off again shooting between buildings at speeds that most others couldn't reach, He approached the scene and saw the deranged woman with Hardlight tech, But what shocked him was what she actually was. He radioed in once more, ""<font color=""#fff200"">Guys this is urgent...we got a Yellow Lantern down here!</font>"" After he radioed in he decided on a split second choice to stop her from firing those guns, Morningstar drew back an started pulling energy from around him sucking in electricity from around him like a leech, then once he was glowing with energy he didn't hesitate to deck her from behind, ""<font color=""#fff200"">Leave him alone!!!</font>""


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She was shooting and now she had him pinned down, Serena was having fun right? Serena looked at Orb Weaver as the dinosaur went down and started bleeding, ""See..we win!"" She Looked at Orb Weaver, ""Don't kill him..."" That's when suddenly she was punched and sent flying into a building with a loud boom.

--------------------------------

Morningstar looked at Orb Weaver with a glare of pure destruction, ""<font color=""#fff200"">Get out of here right now...or so help me I'll leave you in the stratosphere.</font>

Maybe it was his growing aggravation towards being interfered with twice, perhaps it was the affront to his until recently unmarked reputation, or perhaps it was a deep seated primal need to remove something that was not human, but Orb weaver felt immensely pleased with the thought of killing this <span class=""bb-i"">abomination</span>. The gun clicked empty, prompting a curse from Orb weaver, he could hear Serena telling him not to kill Casan, however before he could retort, he felt an excruciating amount of pain in his gun arm. The criminal dropped his weapon and clutched his limb, noting that there was now a kunai embedded in it -rather deeply he might add-, as well as three more embedded in his gun, destroying the weapon. To further add to his troubles, the calvary that Casan had called in had arrived, and said calvary was <span class=""bb-u"">pissed</span>. Orb weaver took a moment to glare balefully up at Morningstar but relented. ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">Alright, i'm gone. But me and the shape shifter have a score to settle. Feel free to tell him that.</font></span>"" Orb weaver yelled over the sound of the helicopter before shouldering his bag and taking off.

It was time for him to call it quits on his antics it seemed. After all, the knife in his arm would require medical attention, possibly even a hospital visit. Orb weaver chastised himself as he ran, ashamed at the fact that he'd gotten greedy during the chaos and chalking up everything that had happened as karma biting him in the ass, ""<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#fff200"">I'll just go buy a new goddamned laptop tomorrow.

Pariah was sitting at a bench in the park waiting for the Young Justice team to show up. <span class=""bb-i"">""These supers have to get their act together, fortunately for them I have a plan.

Wonder girl also had to go back towards her team, they probably were looking for her, especially Blue Arow.

She spoke into her comm, ""Anyone who's free, we could use some help clearing up the park,"" before rolling to avoid being hit by bullets that had been shot out of one of the drones. She grumbled, ""God the least you bastards could do is shoot at me with something creative. Like explosive bullets or something.

 ""Team, report back to the park. The drones are self destructing. We need to regroup and figure out what's going on. I'm heading to help Morningstar. Somebody let Wondergirl know.""

Morningstar had been expecting her to use the Helicopters Machineguns, so when the rockets started coming he could only manage to throw up a small light barrier which after the third rocket, was gone.

Hunter yelled out as soon as he regained consciousness. His fist swung out and hit no one in particular, as it seemed as he was now alone.

<span class=""bb-b"">""eh?""</span>

He grunted in confusion before scratching his head with his metallic hands. He was already to pound some jerks into dust for annoying him until he blacked out. Where the heck was everybody? There had been a billion annoying people nearby not moments ago, now everyone was gone. He had been so hoping to beat someone to a pulp for angering him.

Slowly, Hunter began to remember what had happened. Some annoying guy turned into sticky goo and subdued him, then moved on as if he was nothing. He really freakin' hated being seen as small fry. Then again, he probably should have picked his fight better. He hated how he let his anger get the best of him. It always ended up with him getting his ass handed to him.

Seeing no one around him, Hunter figured it would be best to move on. There was no sense in letting the annoying cops find him and put him in jail. He absolutely loathed having to escape, not that it was much effort. Still, it was a pain to deal with the law, so he figured he'd move on before they came. Which they would, they always did.

Arrow would lean in on the window and smile. ""You already know my name, but I don't know yours yet, miss. But you see, this is all really just a big misunderstanding, right?""

Jacque didn't know whether or not he'd need stitches, only that what he was about to do was going to suck quite badly. He shoved part of the torn jacket into his mouth and took a deep breath, then yanked the knife out of his arm with a small squelching sound and a fresh rivulet of blood. The criminal almost cried out, and was kept from doing so only due to the fact that he bit down harder on the fabric. Jacque spat out the fabric and pulled out some antiseptic wipes along with gauze and medical tape to dress the wound. 

""<span class=""bb-b"">I swear if I wasn't against personally murdering people, that guy would catch a bullet through his goddamned eye socket.</span>"" Jacque hissed venomously as he rotated his arm experimentally. Jacque knew he'd have to go to a hospital, but with his wound cleaned and dressed he could wait until tomorrow. For now he was exhausted, he'd find out what had been damaged by Talon's interference, then he'd get some sleep. Tomorrow he'd go to a doctor and possibly see about getting some work after that.</div>"

Looking over at the rest of the team they appeared to have finished off the last of the drones and were waiting for Morningstar and Blue Arrow to return. He got up to his feet and with a limp he hobbled over to the others while holding his left arm. <font color=""#8dc73f""><span class=""bb-b"">""Anyone..have a status on Arrow and Morningstar?""</span></font>, he said weakly.

I would like to make an RP about Young Justice. I don't exactly have a plot.. but we can think of something out or just RP along the way and see what pops up!

Basically this RP would be about young heroes, who are ALREADY in the Young Justice team, which is our characters. They are already in the team, know each other a little bit, but still our characters have to communicate with eachother to know each other better and what not. Yes, there can be a few heroes, not ALL of them that could join the team later in RP OR be like a solo hero but helps out the team. But I would like the majority to already be in the team.

Villians, we need Villians. But I want it to be like a few villians and a few heroes, even it out!

Rules-

1- Do not go with overpowered powers please, you guys aren't god.
2- No one line please, three or more is fine..
3- Each Hero AND Villian have a different power, meaning ONE telekinetic on the team, etc etc. You can have two powers only, of course. So choose carefully, and powers that actually go with eachother. Like.. Telekinesis and Telepathy. If those two are chosen in one character. You will have to choose another power, basically first come first serve? I don't like that idea BUT I want each hero/villian to have unique abilities you know?
4- Tidus is my CO GM.
5- Please listen to both myself and my CO GM.
6- IF YOU READ THE RULES, PUT IN OTHER SECTION. <span class=""bb-b"">We are YOUNG!</span> in bold letters ;)
7- Have fun!

Well not if Warren and Jacque establish a working relationship. If Warren doesn't have a home of his own he can crash at Jacque's two bedroom flat so long as he agrees to be the muscle for some of the crimes. It'd help to establish a long term set of antagonists for the heroes.</div>"

I could definitely do that. This way I could say Jacque just reached the drop point to deliver the money and receive his payment.

Not targeting, just gathering intel and probably more importantly, getting some face time in the RP as the new comer.

I was talking about Cassie, earlier when she was sitting on the bench eating Ice Cream, I saw her before teleporting behind a tree. As for the drones, I needed a good intro for him to meet her so I played it out like that, I can have the drone only be temporarily shut down and get back up. I will add though that my power makes me a good match for them, short circuiting them and such.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span>  Alurat, the Rune Maker

<span class=""bb-b"">Race:</span>  Half-Elf

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 35

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span>  Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> Flesh Runes
-Two “Wing Runes” on his back, which grant him the ability to fly on ethereal wings.
-One “Armor Rune” on his back and one on his chest, which defend him from being pierced within the area of the rune.
-One “Strength Rune” on each shoulder which amplifies the strength of his arms.
-One “Life Rune” which allows him to sense living presences, on his forehead.
-One “Vault Rune” on his stomach which allows him to magical store objects, converting them into script.
-One ""Lightning Rune"" which imbues his right hand with the power of lightning.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Alurat is the product of human ambition and elven magical affinity. He was born in a city dedicated to the pursuit of magical knowledge, and bot his father and mother were spell casters. As he grew up he realized that in a city of magic users his talents didn’t stand out, and so he sought a field very rarely delved into. Rune magic. There were many mysteries in rune magic, most of which the obscurity of the field left unanswered even in a city which focused on knowledge, and so Alurat sought to find those answers himself and become a master of the rarest type of power. He quested after and gained knowledge of ancient scripts and languages from across the realm, and after experimenting with his newly found powers of rune magic he took an extreme path. 

He began painting runes into his flesh, turning his body into the canvas for potent magical forces and discovering new ways to harness runic energies. Although his first attempts were merely on the surface of the skin, after he became confident in his skills he began to tattoo the runes deep into his skin where their magic would remain indefinitely. Now he scours the land for new spells and effects he can add to the canvas of his flesh. This is what has brought him to Tremshire, rumors of the beast have piqued his interest and he wishes to learn how to harness its power in the form of runes to enhance his body further.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>: Sophia Pax

<span class=""bb-b"">Race</span>: Elf

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>: 45 (looks 24)  

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>:  Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>: She carries twin swords. One is infused with fire magic and the other Ice magic. She normally wears just cloth armor to stay mobile in a fight. The armor also provides magical protection against some range anima magic.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic</span>: Anima magic
<span class=""bb-u"">Ice Dragon</span>- Ice shoots out from her ice sword in the shape of a serpent freezing everything it touches.
<span class=""bb-u"">Fire dragon</span>- Fire rages forth from her fire blade in the distinctive shape of a serpent burning all it touches and scorching the ground. 
<span class=""bb-u"">Fire Fang</span>- A swing of the fire blade unleashes a horizontal shockwave of fire hurling at her foes.
<span class=""bb-u"">Ice Fang</span>- same thing as fire slash but ice element.
<span class=""bb-u"">Twin Dragon Dance</span>- While taxing on the body, This spell gives her a boost of speed, energy, and strength leading to a flurry of Ice and fire sword attacks.
<span class=""bb-u"">Elemental Storm</span>- Her ultimate ability. This takes a good bit of time to set up a spell circle and chant. She summons forth a storm of fire, ice, and lightning to devastate an area. Unlike her other spells, she does not need her sword to channel the anima magic. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio</span>: Sophia was born into the head family and heir to a clan of magical swordsman. Her elven line had found a way to tie elemental magic into objects and had long worked closely with a clan of Dwarven smiths. The Dwarfs crafted fantastic works of metal for the elves and in exchange, the elves provided magical enhancements for the dwarfs. This arrangement had worked for many generations. 

When she was born, Sophia's parents commissioned a weapon from their dwarf friend to commemorate her birth. The Dwarfs agreed and took great pride in their work. However and fortunately, The dwarfs came back with two identical blades for her. They claimed the sword they made had split in two while forging it. While too young to wield the twin blades, Sophia's parents kept them for Sophia until she was old enough to use them.

Sophia was raised from a young age to use the sword and magic. She embraced the training and knew that it was her task to be the heiress to the family head. It was a destiny she could not refuse. As part of her training, She was to wander the world and learn from experience. When she departed to wander, She looked an listened for any conflicts to intervene in. When she heard about ember peaks, She made haste to Tremshire.</div>"

Race:  
Human

Age: 
She looks around her 20s, however her date of birth goes farther than that. Oldest she could be is around 50 years old.

The enchantments causes external sources of anything magical in nature that is not Honoka's, to react violently in the general proximity of being slight outside melee range. Making the sword quite a good weapon to defend against magical spells as magic is repelled off contact of the sword, this works the same way when attacking as it disrupts magical defenses in the same manor as well. Stronger spells may overcome the enchantments as simply it is too much for a sword the sword to handle for different reasons, most likely due to the amount of magical energy.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Revered Armor</span></span>: Armor donned to her also by the church, it is too blessed with Rune and Sacred magic to more specifically protect her if anything should try to harm her. The armor itself is considered to be an holy object, and empowers sacred magic used by Honoka whenever they are around whether passive or casted. It allows Honoka to use her faith as a shield to reduce damage done to her, however it does not entirely negate damage.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Holy Necklace:</span></span> A necklace given to Honoka by a friend who has long passed away, it reminds her of what she believes in and what she is fighting for. The necklace has a cross attached to it and is engraved with a worn out name showing the age of the thing. Besides that, there is nothing else special with the necklace besides being an accessory.</div></div>

Her belief in her religion and practice grants her special abilities that are individually distinctive from other practitioners of faith. With her faith in god, it slows down her aging significantly to last twice as long of what her race allows giving her 200 years to be able to live. However if corrupted its change could be devastating on Honoka health and mentality, twisting it in ways no one could believe it could be.

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Faith as my Shield</span></span>: With the help of her armor it allows Honoka to use her faith as a protective means to reduce damage from enemies who try to oppose her. With the use of her sword and barrier she can deflect off some of the more powerful attacks, however not all attacks will be canceled out and will hit her. The barrier basically softens things up for Honoka to allow her to deflect it if possible or get hit while still trying to minimize damage done to her. 

<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Belief as my Sword</span></span>: Perhaps the strongest ability that Honoka has that stems from her divine connection to her god, it allows her to channel her faith into her sword granted by the church. Although not noticeable or detectable normally, with the use of magical means you can notice that her sword glows in a dull light blue color with Honoka's faith flowing there the sword. Causing its power to cut and slash become more powerful, as well as increasing its durability.</div></div>

The status of her family's official ranking was often confused and mixed up meaning that many people of the nobility had simply considered that as 'special' commoners. However, after the mysterious death of her family caused by a fire Honoka was left to be an orphan at the church where they had taken her in. In there she was taught the life of being part of the church, being taught about their god and living a different life style that very much contrasted from what she was used to. However, over the years she had gotten used to living this way and had dedicated her life to the church. When she showed great potential being a Templar, she was taught the ways of being one practicing with swords against other Templars. Learning the basics of magic to make sure they knew what they were dealing with however, majority of their focus was Sacred magic and they learned to use it adeptly to contribute it to their combat. 

It had taken many years of steady practicing and preforming errands for the church when they needed however she was mostly independent, as she slowly climbed the ranks becoming an officer in the very end. Given the nickname The Archangel due to her dedication and her true faith in god which often separated her from the other Templars who were around. Acknowledged by the church, she was given a weapon claimed to come from an angel who had given its weapon to the church before passing. They had given her the sword, along side with the gift of some armor from the Knight Commander who at the time was in good relationship with, however had passed away months latter in a mission. There she was offered to become on of the knight commanders and was given the armor of her old friend however declined and remained as an officer.

However in her active years she has disappeared from the church and is now for what everyone knows as an independent part of the church, using their name to bring good to where she can. Her going to Tremshire is no different, however will be a challenge considering what she has heard that goes around over there.</div></div></div>"

Name: Ivan Rischter, The Victor's Hand

Race: Human
 
Age: 34  

Gender: Male

Equipment: Ivan wields two broadswords in battle. These broadswords are named Twilight and Eclipse. These swords were crafted by dwarves and elves in cooperation, resulting to it shining under the moonlight and it being easy to handle.

His set of armor is also made by the same crafters, but with the moonlight shining feature removed.

Magic: Ivan uses only a few spells of Anima magic, namely:
<span class=""bb-i"">Counter Ambush</span> - Ivan thrusts his sword into the ground, sending out a magical force that knocks enemies away from him.
<span class=""bb-i"">Hasten</span> - Ivan becomes faster for a short period of time, allowing him to clear out enemies in a shorter time.
<span class=""bb-i"">Barrier</span> - Ivan becomes enveloped in an invisible barrier that protect him from harmful projectiles. This can last as long as he wants, however it drains his energy the longer it stays.

Bio: History is written by the victor. That is what Ivan usually says before venturing into a battle. 

Born in an ordinary household, Ivan had no choice but to work hard in order to sustain a stable lifestyle. He trained to be a knight for many years, and was successfully taken in by a noble. This noble soon died and he was reassigned to another. And the sequence continues. 

That was, until Ivan became rogue and wandered around the world. He had everything he needed - money, knowledge and his set of equipment. He travelled through many cities, seeing all the different cultures and traditions of each. But he also saw the dark truth of mortality - being forgotten. He remembered all the nobles he had served for and their graves, their only proof that they were in this world.

Ivan didn't want that. He wanted to be remembered as something great, something that should not be forgotten. He wanted to be a legend. And in order to do so, he must be in every impactful happenings in the world. And he did, he went into wars and won them, into gladiatorial events, in revolutions and monster hunts. He soon earned the title of the Victor's Hand for most of the sides he took gained the upper hand. But still, he did not feel as if it was enough. To him, it did not seem that he will be remembered in a great way. 

Hearing the call of Tremshire, he immediately headed there. He felt as if in this one, in this quest, was his desire to be remembered to be fullfilled.

Appearance: Ivan is not likely to take off his set of armor, not even his helm. But when he does, his looks are very distinguished. Below is the picture that shows his face.

Name: Vaelin Sinnet, the Wanderer

Race: Human

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Equipment: Basic travelling sack and durable adventurer's clothing (mix-match of leather and cloth). Though he is a Runic Mage, he is quite adept with a sword and carries a trusty blade at his side. Most importantly, he carries a leather-bound notebook that he uses for his magic (to be explained in the Magic section).

Magic: Written Runes. By replicating the ancient sigils within his notebook and then tearing and crumpling the page within his hands, Kevin can invoke magics of the old. This ranges from anima-affinity spells, to magical materialization, and to blessings and curses. The downside to his magic is that it MUST be written before it can be casted, leaving him to often become an 'immobile' mage. It is also a dilemma if he were to lose this portable ink pen or his leatherbound book, or  worse, both. 

Bio: The son of an alchemist and a scholar, Vaelin Sinnet had lived quite an ordinary life. Though he may be quite knowledgeable, nothing really stood out from the boy besides his knack for getting in trouble. Quite rebellious at an early age, he was quite popular with the children of his age and managed to form a 'gang' of mischief makers that ran rampant in his small town. Though their actions were anything but hostile, their reckless behavior was such a nuisance that Vaelin's parents decided to send him off to a nearby city for a private boarding school in hopes of fixing his vagrant streak. It was here where the young child was exposed to magic for the first time; by becoming an apprentice to a mage of the lost art of Runes, Vaelin had paved himself a path to become a user himself. Throughout the years, the boy had retained a vast amount of information on magics, and his thirst for knowledge drove him to the top of the class. It did not take much for him to graduate as one of the tops in his class. However, after his graduation, his thirst for knowledge became a siren's call for adventure. Filled with confidence, power, and youth, Vaelin had decided to set for the world rather than returning back to his hometown. It has been several years on the road, and he had become quite an adept adventurer. It also helped that his mental library of runes had increased since the times of his academic years. Now, the grand merchant city of Tremshire beckons him with it's richness and alluring mystery of the Ember Peaks.</div>"

Berthellemy was quite happy to have someone choose him and want to help him, so he quickly took a liking back to the priest. He was raised as one of the church's own, even though he didn't always follow their beliefs and understand why they did what they did.

Berthellemy wasn't proficient with magic, but was ecstatic to know he could be part of the magic clergy if he was willing to study. Not only was he willing to study, he was also willing to go the extra-mile and could usually be found pestering some of the experienced members about wanting to help them out and keep them in practice. It took some time, but eventually Berthellemy was able to rise through the ranks and learn his stuff. Although some of his brethren were not all that excited in his willingness to study combative magics, he believed he was doing what he thought was necessary. One firm belief he had that separated him from the others, was that violence is sometimes the only solution. 

As he continued to grow, he eventually began to work directly under the man who had raised him. Together, they did their best to help out those who were suffering or needed assistance. Berthellemy wasn't as always as smooth or wise as his elder, but he certainly did impact lives. However this would all eventually come to an end when the priest was met by a group of survivors who hailed from near Ember Peaks. He heard their tales, and gathered a few other members of the clergy and went to find out what truly was causing these attacks. They were never to return, only ashes and molten metal were left of the good men. 

It was at this time that the city council began to offer rewards to those who would stop the beast. Berthellemy went to join those who wanted the reward, hoping to claim a portion of itself, as well as for other reasons. Part of it was the want to help those who suffer because of the beast, another to gather funds for his people, and the third was revenge, something he is not ashamed to admit.</div>"

Race: Viern/Vix

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Equipment: 

The Redmane Swordpike: When the Redtail and Lionsmane families were combined, they fused their family weapons into one as a symbolic gesture. He is skilled in using this weapon in offensive and defensive combat, but not to an extreme. The sword can be fixed into the pike's shaft and the shaft can collapse. The blades are steel with reinforced wooden shafts.

Samuel's Armor: Regular steel armor, crafted to fit Samuel.

Magic: Anima: Sacrifice: This can heal others, at the lesser expense of his well-being. For example, he could restore someone's arm if it was all sliced and bleeding, but he would lose control of one of his arms. These changes last from 20 minutes to a day depending on the severity. This is administered by touch.

Bio: Samuel is the offspring of a Vix and a Fiern. Because of their traits, he is stronger than the average trained man, but not by much, and he is very kind. He was trained from a young age to make and use weapons. He can make various non-magic weapons if given the materials, and can use them too. He set out to earn money for his family, and figured this town was as good as any. He grew up in a family that made just enough money to stay above water, but remembers what it is like to be hungry.

Personality: Samuel is very kind to those he meets. He is willing to help others often, and is willing to use the Sacrifice power on even those who he doesn't know. He enjoys working with others.

Appearance: Samuel's body is covered with a reddish fur. His face has a bit of a constant red fuzz on it, and his bright blue eyes are brought out by it. He wears a light robe under his armor, which covers his chest, back, abdomen, and upper thighs. He is quite agile, and the armor does not encumber him. He has 2 fox tails, one is slightly smaller. He is rather thin, but not scrawny. He does not wear shoes. The Swordpike is strapped to his back, and is easy to unsheathe.</div>"

Race: Dwarf
Age: 45
Gender: Male
Equipment: Dual Axes and Crimson leather armor (shows casteless) Black Cowl 
Magic: none
Bio: Cast out of his caste because of morals, Caelyn has set out to make his own caste and kingdom.  He has always been a big thinker, and after a swift branding to his left side of his neck making him an outcast, it was just the inspiration he needed. Caelyn also knew that if he wanted to do something like that he would have to acquire money.  He knew right where to go.  There was one small problem with going to Silverbeard's mine, and he heard Tremshire was calling upon those to help rid it.

It sounded much like a normal day. But, it was never just an ordinary day. This day was when the quest for the Ember Peaks began, the day when the brave adventurers started to form their bond. At Fort Goldface were a bunch of guards lined up, and a carriage was waiting just outside of it. A noble was in there, waiting for the arrival of those who were brave enough to accept the call. To his sides were his loyal advisors, writing down notes and predicting what would happen. To the left of them were some treasurers, counting and calculating the rewards to be given if the quest would be a success. 

The doors of the fort opened. A man in armor slowly walking towards the noble. ""I am here for the quest of Ember Peaks."", he said in a serious tone. 

The noble answered back to him, ""Are you sure? Many have ventured there and never returned.""

The man in armor replied, ""I assure you, I will return with the creature's heart.""

""Very well then."", the noble said, ""I require your name, in order to entitle the reward to you. If you ever finish this journey that is.""

""Ivan Rischter."", he said.

""My, my! The Victor's Hand! Pardon me for not recognizing you."", the noble said in surprise.

""Whether you recognize me or not is irrelevant. What matters is remembering."", Ivan said.

The loyal advisors of the noble then unfolded a scroll, and wrote his name on it. ""I assume you are fine with waiting?"", the noble said to Ivan.

""Yes."", Ivan replied as he put his back against a nearby wall.</div>"

Fort Goldface</span>

A travel stained cloak clung to the stranger's shoulders as he departed the city of Tremshire. Fort Goldface rose in the distance, a short walk away from the city limits. A thin cloud of dust rose behind Alurat, kicked up by his horses hooves, which marked his passage on the road. This seemed likely to be a simple venture, but worth investigating none the less. If the creature was magical in nature he might learn something that would further his research, and magical or not he stood to make a profitable reward for hunting it down. He expected there to be a small party of mercenaries. He didn't like working with others, there was always a risk of conflicting motives and goals, but it would likely not prove detrimental to his own aims. As he mused, he closed the distance with the fort and the doors opened before him.

Alurat reined in his horse in the fort's courtyard, before a noble and his retinue. A man leaning against the wall looked distinctly out of place, and he had no doubt that they would be one of his companions on this job.

""I'm here to slay a monster,"" he stated without preamble, pulling back his hood and revealing a stern face marked with runic tattoos and framed with red locks which hid his pointed ears.</div>"

Her twin swords rested comfortably on her hips. She looked at the large walls of the fortress as she approached and the only thought that comes to mind is how much force would it take to bring those walls down? Magic could be used but it would be pointless without a large force to storm in through the gap and overwhelm the defenders. Speaking of defenders, the defenders could use magic t prevent magic from breaching the walls. Every answer seemed like it could be countered and negated. The fortress would fall only if the will existed to destroy it. That was true about most things. Sophia knew that this line of thought was not relevant to any mission she would be on, but it kept her from getting bored as she walked up to the gates. 

The gates opened for Sophia as she approached. She did not show her surprise, but she did expect that she would have to introduce herself before being granted access to the fort. Maybe she looked like enough of a mercenary that she didn't need to introduce herself. That was fine with her. She walked forward spotting two men before a noble and his advisers. She approaches and politely performs a curtsy. She says, ""I am known as Sophia Pax. Despite my name, I relish in combat. I have head this is where I come for a quest to the Ember peaks. I offer my swords.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">City of Tremshire</span></span></span>

In the city of Tremshire an unusual figure had entered the town quietly disturbing nothing in its steps, and had entered the local church the several nights before. The stranger had spent the first night there in silence, however the next day the stranger was no longer a mystery and was revealed to be what most of the people believed to be a ordinary paladin. And thus, she was deemed to be no longer of importance to be kept an eye on. However, the church would mostly likely disagree to what the people of Tremshire had believed as The Archangel had visited their church to help relieve the problem at the Silverbeard's Mines, in the Ember Peaks. Honoka had spent the past several days in the shallower sections of the mountains and found the entrance to several mines however, without the confirmation of the noble she was unsure but had lodged a new dagger with a cross etched into the metal, into the entrances off all the caves she had found before leaving. It was the finally day she was spending in the town, and had apologized but thanked the local church for their kindness in letting her stay and had now left to Fort Goldface where she was to meet the noble. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">Fort Goldface</span></span></span>

The gates of Fort Goldface were intriguing to Honoka as she has seen many large walls that had defended fortresses before, and they had good reason to be there which meant that the same should be applied to this fort. However, she was interrupted when the gates had opened for her and allowed passage through the large gates. She had unknowingly had approach the fortress but, she continued on what her subconscious had been doing and entered the fort, slowly watching the gates close behind her. There inside, she saw two men who were probably the advisers of the noble who stood behind them. Aside of them were the treasurers who had been bluntly counting money in front of from what she could count three other individuals who had came for the same quest, most likely. 

""I am here to relieve you and the city of their problem"" Honoka had said before looking at the side where the other adventurers stood ""You may simply call me Honoka, and before anything else are those the others who will be partaking in this ordeal?"" She asked taking notice of Ivan Rischter in particular, as his two noticeable broadswords and not to mention armor had stood out from the other two. While the other girl with the twin swords also stood out and not to mention the shady man with a rune on his right hand, that she noticed.

""What is your name?"", the noble asked as Alurat unveiled his hood. 

The doors opened again. This time, an elven girl went and spoke up to the noble.

To the elven girl, Sophia Pax, the noble said, ""Very well, Sophia Pax. You shall be rewarded accordingly when the quest is done.""

The advisors of the noble opened the scroll once again, and wrote her name on it.

Then, after Honoka entered, the advisors wrote her name as she spoke it. The noble then, answered he question. ""Yes, Honoka. They are your allies in this quest. I do believe that all of you would get along.""

-

Ivan observed the people who entered the fort. <span class=""bb-i"">""A rune magician, an elf with two swords and a paladin.""</span>, he thought to himself. To him, they seemed unfit for the quest. To him, they were like recruits going to a veteran's mission. But for most of his experiences,he learned that it was not good to underestimate anyone. He raised his back from leaning, and stared out the nearby window. The scenery was clear, there was nothing but the wind and the ground outside. The peaks of red and yellow standing calmly as it waited for anyone to venture. ""What kind of creature would be up there.."", he murmured.</div>"

He dismounted, handing his reins to what he presumed was a stable boy. Including himself, four had arrived thus far, which was about the turnout he had expected for such a quest. Tremshire didn't seem to be particularly noteworthy and he doubted it would attract many experienced mercenaries. He pulled the leather glove on his right hand tight as he clenched his fist, expressing his readiness to be off.

""How large is the reward for this job? And how many will be in our company?"" he asked, directing his question first at the noble before running his gaze over his soon-to-be companions.</div>"

Well, better go inside.</span> As he walked up to the fort, he wondered how much money the reward was for defeating this creature. He hoped it would be enough to sustain his family for a decent while.

He walked inside the fort, and instantly noticed the other adventurers. He glanced over them for a few seconds, and walked up next to
them. While facing the noble, he said ""Hello. My name is Samuel Redmane. I am here for the...err...job?""</div>"

The noble answered his questions. ""Once the quest is done, you will receive 10 bags of gold, worth a thousand each. And any item you may have acquried whilst doing the quest is yours."", he said. Then, the noble opened a small book, flipped a few pages and answered Alurat's second question. ""According to records, there are to be seven of you who answered the call. So I believe you will be in a group of seven."", othe noble said.

Then, another man entered the fort. He spoke up his name, and said that he was there for the job. The advisors wrote his name at the scroll. Then, one of the advisors, signaled him the number two. The noble nodded, and observed Samuel. ""Tell me, Samuel. What is your race exactly?"", the noble asked.</div>"

She did not know if these people were going to be rivals for the reward or willing companions. As long as she completed this mission, it wouldn't really matter. She tried to observe everything about the people around her from their weapons and armor, to their temperament and hairstyle. They were all interesting in their own unique way. When the noble answered the question about what the reward was, She could not be help but smile. It was a good amount but the way the noble worded it was funny. Whatever she find along the way was hers to keep. So, if she happened to stumble upon a gem in a noble's pocket, it was hers to keep. She knew it did not work like that but it was an amusing thought. She said nothing to anyone and she stepped back to be closer to the edge of the group.</div>"

Berthellemy rushed inside the fort! He thought for sure he was going to be too late, but as god would have it, he made it in time! He put his cross to his chest and prayed silently while looking for those who he would be a companion to. Sure enough, they stood out like sore thumbs, they were pretty easy to spot and find. So, with haste, he went towards them.

""I hope you forgive me, It took a little longer to get here then I had assumed"", he spoke to anyone who was willing to listen, or at least acknowledge he was now here and will be assisting them. What he told them was the truth, and he had overestimated his own body. He had no idea such a long journey would have put such a large toll on him! However, now that he was here he was hoping he could rest for at least an hour or so, he wanted to rejuvenate himself beginning the most dangerous expedition he had ever been on. He wanted to be at least somewhat prepared.</div>"

How interesting."", the noble said. It was not very usual to see a mixture of races in Tremshire, since most of the population there come from large clans of races and such.

Then, another guy came into the fort. He carried a cross, which seemed to be metallic. He apologized for arriving late, when he was just in time. The noble looked at him and said, ""Do not apologize, priest."", the noble said as he assumed that Berthellemy was some kind of priest. ""You are joining this quest, aren't you?

Birds flew off in the field to perch somewhere more peaceful.  They might have thought a musket had fired with his hearty laugh.  Caelyn had been doing this a lot lately.  Making conversation with the only person he knew the last 5 months of his journey.  Short of an innkeep here and there, and a barmaid, he had no acquaintances.  Reflecting on that only made his already short stride a little longer.  He hurried with conviction, and saw the line of people forming up to join in on this quest.  

""Waaaiit!! Do no' be forgettin' about me.  The most important man on this mission.""  He glanced around and saw one man in heavily cladded armor and thought almost the only man on this misson.  

""State your name for the log.""  The nobleman added with and exaggerated eye-roll.  ""Caelyn Dan'Thur at yer service.""  He bowed with a toothy grin.  ""I'm 'ere to be slayin' yer beastie ye got up there.  Oh! That is remindin' me!  Why name this place Goldface?  Seems kinda silly.""  

""Please wait over there while we wait for the others to arrive.""  The nobleman obviously avoided the question, and it made Caelyn laugh.  But only a mild boom, he was in the presence of nobility of course.  Caelyn moved to join the others.</div>"

""I shall take my leave."", the noble said, ""Good luck, brave adventurers."" The servants then left the fort, then the noble and his advisors. The gold that was counted by the treasurers were brought with them in bags. The carriage had left. The adventurers were left alone, with tables filled with food ranging from the classic roasted meat to fine, high-tier meals.

Ivan immediately took the nearest ale he could reach, slightly removed his helm to reveal his mouth, and started to the chug down what he held as he grabbed two more bottles and strapped them to his waist.

Instead of taking advantage of the food, he surveyed his companions. The relaxed attitude of the one partaking of the ale had made him seem to be the most confident in his abilities, and dulling his senses before their quest agreed with that assessment. Alurat decided that he should probably speak to him now, to take his measure before their group confronted any real danger. Picking up a glass of chilled fruit juice, he approached the warrior.

""You arrived before me, so I did not catch your name, warrior,"" he said, implying a question. Taking a sip from his glass, he awaited a response.</div>"

She watched everyone around her but she said nothing to any of them. She did not know any of them and as far as she was concerned they did not need to know anything of her.

The skies were turning from bright blue into a radiant yellow, the adventurers have spent much time configuring and feasting. A loud roar coming from the mountain was heard throughout the fort. 

""I believe our creature has grown impatient and is asking to be slain."", Ivan said to his allies. ""We should be able to leave now, as long as you all are ready."", he said as he left the tables, and started to head through the doors.</div>"

She could feel that fear rise from within her at the same time, the fear evoked a lust for combat and thrill of the fight to awaken in her. She stood up and proclaimed, ""About time... This hunt should be fun.""

Sophia grabbed the last few grapes out of a bowl as she left the tables. She was happy and eager to get started. If she had stayed much longer, she might have been encouraged to keep eating. She was not really interested in being fattened up for some other creature's lunch.</div>"

Whatever creature they faced certainly sounded ferocious, which was all the better for his purposes. Any doubts were assuaged by the confidence with which Sir Rischter faced the beast's bellow, taking charge of the party and leading the way out the doors of the fort. Grabbing a pitcher of the chilled juice he had been enjoying, Alurat followed after the warrior, pulling the hood of his cloak up once again.

Looking over his shoulder, he called out to those still at the table. ""You heard the beast, lets be on our way while there's still good light.""</div>"

He had not seen a spread this generous in a very long time.  So, if anyone was watching, Caelyn gorged himself.  ""Ah, I like yer philosomofee there Allyourrat.  Just like me eatin' the more I'm puttin' in, the better me belly is feelin.""  Caelyn let out a roaring laugh.  Except this time, it seemed to echo extra loudly.  ""Man, are me laughs really that loud?""  Caelyn looked around the room and saw everyone's gazes focusing on the mountain.  ""Ah, it t'was the beastie then.  Good, was about to be insecure about me laugh.""  Caelyn shook his head and went back to gorging.  

The Ivan fellow suggested it was time to leave.  Caelyn snatched up some fruit and smoked meats for the journey, and picked up his axes.  ""Ah me two loves, Slash and Thrash.""  Each blade finely honed, and upon further inspection would see they were enchanted.  Caelyn wasn't ready to reveal just what yet. He kissed each of them as if a child and sheathed them on his sides.  ""Well ladies, might we be goin?""</div>"

The roar of the creature from the mountain, which had caught his attention first, the reactions of everyone, the slightly annoying face-stuffing of the dwarf.

He stood up and faced the mountain, and smiled to himself. ""I suppose the creature is tired of waiting. I believe we should go before it comes to meet us!"" He pulled out Emla (His weapon's name) and fixed it in the pike position. He was a bit puzzled by what exactly they would find that they could keep. That might end up being as good a reward as the reward itself.</div>"

She wondered how this was all going to end up, considering the colorful companions that were going on this quest. It seemed a bit too large in her opinion, but it was better to be cautious considering the roar that echoed through the peaks. The size of that creature most be intimidating at the very least, but with this many people it should be fine considering if all went well. So with her gear she briskly walked to the group's destination being relatively quiet most of the trip there with little conversation.</div>"
22889,Into the Flames,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76451-into-the-flames,['Casual'],2015-02-23 15:29:00,Bravest,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As Ivan headed out, the others started to follow him. 

Beyond the doors of the fort lie a wide area, free for anyone to roam about. Just a few minute walk away, the entrance to the abandoned mines await. 

Ivan started to move towards the direction of the mines, glancing back every once in a while to check if the others were still following him. After all, this was a quest no one can do alone. 

The sun was staring down on them, and there were no clouds to protect them from its hot embrace. The scorching heat was another thing to mind. Though the distance was quite short, it seemed longer due to the intense warmth that the bright star gave upon them.

Ivan was sweating, his armor was enough to keep him warm for cold days, but not cold for times like this. He murmured a curse to the sun's heat as he finally reached the entrance to the mines.

The entrance, unlike any other, had a shade due to the huge figure of Silverbeard carved just above the entrance. Silverbeard was just like the average dwarf, with his long locks and thick beard, short yet dauntless stature, but still, the figure looked like a carving dedicated to a noble. Beneath the huge carving was a wide open hole, full of rusty minecart tracks and abandoned mining gear such as pick axes and gem detectors. 

Ivan took a small rest. He sat on the ground covered by the shade as he took out one of bottle of ales, and started to drink it. As he sat there, he observed whatever was in the entrance of the mines. Abandoned materials, some old unrefined gems lying around, some unused carts and rust tracks. It seemed to be abandoned for a long time. The lighting system was still functioning, despite it not being used for quite a while now as he heard. ""Hmm, how odd."", he said. ""How could the lighting work properly, when this has been abandoned? Surely it requires a lot of maintenance and such for it to continually work."" He pondered about whatever it is that was keeping the mines lit up, and what could it be contributing to that beast above. Just as he thought about the beast, another roar was heard. This time, it was louder but quick, as if it was hurt by something or someone. Ivan stood up, and glanced at the top, trying to get at least a peek on whatever was waiting for them up there. Sadly, he saw nothing but a bunch of crumbling rocks.</div>"

Stories tell of a huge creature dwelling in the Ember Peaks, terrorizing those foolish enough to venture in its territory. A creature so terrifying, that the mountains had been left alone for so many years now. But the stories had been forgotten, lost in the flow of time. 

A group of miners returned to the mountains, only to be welcomed by the creature's wrath. More incidents have been occurring there since - a bunch of wanderers getting burnt to a crisp, a mere patrol troop fleeing in fear and more. This again, led to many stories about the fierce creature. A terror it has been for too long. But that is about to change.

The nearby city, Tremshire, called upon those who are skilled to see to it that this creature is stopped. The city's council offered a huge reward for those who will successfully finish the task. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Locations</div>
<span class=""bb-b"">The Ember Peaks</span>
•The Ember Peaks is a mountain range far in the west. Its tops are usually lined with a glowing mixture of red and yellow, which has been told be lava. The mountains have tunnels on their feet, which used to be mines for the nearby city of Tremshire. There have been people who climbed to the top, however that was before the rumors of the creature began. 

<span class=""bb-b"">City of Tremshire</span>
•Tremshire is a city that thrives on trades and mining. It has a rich environment, enough for the city to still maintain economic stability despite being deprived of mining. The citizens are hospitable and usually hold a feast every 11 days, as a thanksgiving to the gods and their assistance. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fort Goldface</span>
•Fort Goldface is a building outside the city's borders. It was used as a place to rest and stop by when the mines of Ember Peaks were still of use. Now, it is used as an outpost to see and warn anyone who plans to enter the mines. This is also where the brave travellers will meet.

<span class=""bb-b"">Silverbeard's Mines</span>
•The mines are named after the dwarf who started digging the holes into the mountain and finding its riches. It uses to be Tremshire's main source of income and resources, but since the creature appeared, it has been abandoned.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Magic</div>
The use of magic is very abundant in this world, some use it for their daily activities, some for their leisure and some in their professions. Despite its common use, magic is not inborn and must be studied in order to be able to utilize it. Though many have been taught the basics in their early age, some have no experience on magic at all.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Types of Magic</div>
There are three types of magic in this world, mainly:

<span class=""bb-b"">Anima Magic</span>
•This is the most common type used. Anima magic focuses heavily on the use of the elements for almost anything - offense, defense, utility. This type of magic has many basic spells for almost anyone to use, yet it also has the most complex ones, which requires years of study.

<span class=""bb-b"">Sacred Magic</span>
•This magic is commonly used by those following the Order of Light, like paladins and priests. It focuses on the use of powers of gods and spirits, unlike Anima magic. This magic needs to be studied before use, due to the risk it possesses.

<span class=""bb-b"">Rune Magic</span>
•This magic is rarely seen, due to it being complicated and the lack of information some has. This is an ancient magic, dating back since the creation of the world. It uses runes, which can be found in different sources - ancient writings, books, terrains, or even marked in the parts of the body. This magic is almost like Anima magic, but gives off more impact and effectivity. This being said, only a few who are skilled enough are able to use this with ease.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Races</div>
There are many kinds of living civilized beings in this world, each one unique and different.

<span class=""bb-b"">Humans</span>
•Humans is the most abundant race by far, usually taking up most of a city's population. They have been showing progress in all kinds of fields, but there is one thing that they are in the lead - technology. Though technology in this world is unlike ours, the latest creation that they have made is a fully functional giant steam golem.

<span class=""bb-b"">Elves</span>
•Elves are the long-eared counterpart of humans. They are usually attuned to nature and magic, and most of them move with speed and grace. Though their looks might make them seem useless in combat, they have proven that like books, they are not to be judged by the looks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Dwarves</span>
•Dwarves are usually half the size of an average human, and most of them have long locks or beards. They are the brave and loyal mountain dwellers(not to Ember Peaks in this case) and are usually the better smiths than most. They have a little problem about treasure obsession, though.

<span class=""bb-b"">Vix</span>
•The Vix are just like humans who grew the ears and tails of a fox. The number of tails usually tell how many decades they have lived. Though being aligned with mischief and trickery, they are quite the opposite - they trust too easy and are kind to a fault. Unlike other races, they can easily detect if magic is being used or has been used near them.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fiern</span>
The Fiern are humans with very obvious feline properties(or simply a nekomimi). Despite usually being called cute or adorable, they possess strength twice that of human's. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Rules</div>
Follow the forum rules.
No godmodding, autohitting, or use of overpowered abilties.
Romance is allowed but keep it pg-13.

Hey you guys can just hopefully snipe me down with magic :3 I am* tuning down my armor and magical defenses to make her more vulnerable to attacks so yeah ^,^ check when its edited and thanks for the criticism. If you spot anything else tell me and I will hopefully change it.

(Or lift some boulders and throw it at her lol, they arent magical and you can still use magic to help you lift it and throw it. Maybe burn her to death by scorching the land and let her be consumed in flames, if she is trapped of course... by boulders.

It depends on their use and effectivity. Some might do a 10 but minor effect spells, and some might just do 1 VERY effective spells. Some might do 10 daily/regular use spells or just 1 powerful combat spell. If you can justify its use, then it is good to go.</div>"

History: After Gwen Stacy's death, a few people noticed Spiderman dropped her dead body off. Inspecting the body, they found blood, though it did not belong to Gwen, though not all of it. Some Oscorp scientists started working with it, suspecting it to hold Spiderman's DNA. They were not wrong, though needed more DNA to combine with it. Luckily there was a dead woman who was being prepped for burial, harvesting some of Gwen Stacy's DNA, they combined the DNA of both of them to create a clone. After Quick Growing a clone, they tested her, forcing her to do strength training, agility training, even mental puzzles. Though when they figured out that she kept some of the memories and personality traits from Spiderman and Gwen Stacy, they had to dispose of her and start again. Before she was ushered into a room, she met a girl that looked like her, though didn't show any emotion besides anger. During the 'Deletion Process', she escaped and stole a hoodie and lab coat. After finding Spiderman, she talked to him and convinced her of who she was, having some of his memories. Though Peter feels bad for her, and tried to help her, he can't help but feel sad when around her, since she looks like his now dead girlfriend.

Alias Lord of Blades
Age  17
Gender  Male
Appearance  <img src=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/d1/ea/ca/d1eacaf17aff6956450cb622c44ed5c7.jpg""/> (if he needs to hide his identity then he can just summon an outfit. :P)
Powers <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Weapon_Arsenal"">Weapon Arsenal</a>(at High level), <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Weapon_Proficiency"">Weapon Proficiency</a>(this includes improbable weapons such as random things found around him as long as he can pick them up and wield them as a weapon); Also, for some strange reason, when he's angry he becomes stronger and faster, as if adrenaline actually increases his physical attributes.
Abilities James has trained his body to the peak of human physical condition, so he can do things the average person can't because of his training. He also has a photographic memory, and a supergenius-level intellect, which helps him summon things of such complexity as a mini-mecha or a vehicle of some sort.
Weaknesses  Even with his powers, his body is still that of a human, so he can die like a human can.
Equipment  Whatever he summons.
History  Only a year or so after James was born, his parents died in an accident. He was soon sent off to an orphanage, but his extremely high intellect made a group of scientists take interest in him, and they took him for some tests. They experimented on him constantly. Well, up until he was 15 years old, when he finally got tired of the torturous experiments. That was when his powers awakened and, in his rage, he murdered everyone in the facility. If there were any survivors, nobody knows, because nobody wants to talk about that place. Ever since, he's just been a drifter, going from town to town and never staying in one place too long.
Personality  James is very quiet most of the time, only speaking when needed. He's also very calm to the point of seeming emotionless, and he doesn't seem to care about most things. He tends to ignore people who annoy him, especially if they talk all the time.
Family  he has none. They died when he was still an infant.
Friends  None. He has no friends.
Crush/Relationship  None.

Name: N/A  

Alias: 533, Specimen-533

Age: 16  

Gender: Female  

Appearance: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/R5pigeb.jpg""/>

Powers: Density Control - Able to alter the density of her body to resist physical damage. With practice she can use the same ability to phase through objects or become lighter than air.

Abilities: She has become accustomed to brawling, using power to overwhelm her foes. This form is probably favored because it lends well to her powers.

Weaknesses: Despite being extremely resilient she is still only human. Her strength and stamina are not increased by her powers. She also lacks training when it comes to fighting.  

Equipment: None  

History: Kimura, a product of the Facility and one sick twisted... well, we'll not go there. But even she would go out on a fling now and then. With whom, no one knows, she would sooner torture and kill you than tell and everyone at the Facility knew it. But much to her displeasure Kimura discovered that she'd become pregnant. Wanting nothing to do with the burden of parenting or the hit to her performance she demanded that the life be extinguished. But the scientists convinced her otherwise, saying they could place the embryo in an incubation chamber and grow it artificially. With a brand new life form based on one of their own creations the Facility set out to improve upon the original. Manipulating the development process the new specimen would be able to control the density of it's entire body, not just the skin.  

They succeeded with their task, creating a being that was highly resistant to damage. Raised by the Facility they started her brainwashing as soon as she could understand. She still acted out however. But being as resilient as they had made her there was little they could do to reprimand her. Even her own mother, known for the ruthless beatings she would give X-23, couldn't inflict harm on the child. Despite this though the project was turning out to be a success.   

Unfortunately for the Facility their plans were cut short. Who knows how far she would have fallen had not SHIELD found the hidden lab. A joint incursion breached the defenses and those that didn't get captured fled. All the assets and experiments were taken by the authorities, including Specimen-533. While in the care of SHIELD very little changed. The girl refused to speak or interact much with anyone there. She'd heard too much about these people to trust them. Running low on options it was decided to take another approach. 533 had expressed resentment toward those who put her through hell in the Facility, including her own mother. The deal was that if she became a SHIELD agent that they would give her the opportunity and resources to hunt them down. How hard could that be?

Personality: Having had bad experiences with people 533 is not a particularly friendly type. She lacks many social skills and has learned to speak her mind even when it is not kind words. If she doesn't try inflict harm upon you you are probably on her good side.

Family: Kimura - Mother

Friends: None  

Crush/Relationship: None  

Other: Having never been given a proper name 533 has been trying to decide what to name herself. Brownie points to the one who helps her out on that.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span> <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Biomass_Manipulation"">Biomass Manipulation</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Combat. Literally. Due to the people he has absorbed, he has retained their knowledge and skills, although he has to train the skills to keep them up. This goes for sword, firearm, and martial art skills as well. However, when it comes to hand-to-hand combat, he literally just stays on the opponent with tremor-inducing, stone-splitting punches and kicks before brutally destroying their bodies and consuming their husks.

Son of an abusive mother and father...
Hated sibling of three...
Born, over-all, into a crappy life, in an even worse

was videogames. He could sit down, after a...
round of 'friend roughhousing' with his father,
and a...'mom to son argument' with his mother,
and simply just...play until his heart's content.
Of course, it couldn't have been too healthy.
He knew that he was a freak...a weirdo.
He wanted to hurt his parents...his siblings.
Everyone that bullied him in school for being
'creepy' and 'dark'. Was it his fault that he could
do these...things? That he was faster than a 
motorcycle at the age of 3? That he could lift
up the teacher's desk and throw it in rage
when they called him mean names? It wasn't...
it wasn't his fault. Was...was it his fault when 
he accidentally cracked the class's pet...and
absorbed it into his body? The blood...bones...
innards, as his chest opened up into a maw of flesh and 
organic material, and the butchered form o- he couldn't
bare to think of it; his four year old mind couldn't
comprehend it. he had to mature from a young age.
He was sociopathic, quiet, dangerous.
The ones parents didn't want their children 
to turn out like. Cautious.
Suspicious.

Then...it finally happened. He snapped.
His father had been talking down to him.
""You worthless piece of monster crap!"" the man would yell. 
Alchohol was on his breath, along with a smell
that he didn't want to think about. His five-year old
mind simmered, and he just tried...tried to 
lay down and take the stompings. it didn't hurt...but
the sharp pieces of metal on the bottom of his boots did.
that's how it was all the time. his father would stomp and punch
him with sharp metal, since his body took punches and lashes
without bruises or cuts. it hurt...hurt so much. he wanted it to 
stop. he snapped.
he grabbed the boot before it could stomp his face in again...
and twisted. The ankle bone snapped like chalk.
like mrs. moore's cat.
he tore it off of the leg, blood streaming through the air. 
stood up, the foot and boot absorbing into his tendril-writhing
chest. a punch to his father's beer belly - the fist went through flesh
and bone. tendrils blasting from his fist, hellish, writhing, and spiky tendrils.
piercing vital organs, flesh...body. his father being absorbed into his own
form. memories, not his own.
Screams...not his own. 
Hours passed by. when he woke up, 
he was staring into the shocked faces of
doctors. the rest is history.
people only know that he showed up in a 
different state altogether, taking on
life as a vigilante that...permanently 
ended and consumed anyone that took
his ire. they called him...
Crisis.</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Fearless. Nothing can hurt him now. Cold. He wouldn't take the pain. Determined. No one would stop him from living. Apathetic. No one would make him cry. Cunning. You had to be, to survive the things he did. Violent; no one enjoys tearing apart criminals as much as Jason. Sarcasm became a way to cope, and despite his outward exterior, there was still some sort of warmth in his body...if you could find it and pull it out. He is quite blunt and will simply slam his foot into anyone or anything if they anger him to the point of violence...and a kick from him is generally life-taking.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>
Aiden ""Strange""
(Is pronounced EYE-den)

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias</span>
Son of Dread
Spawn of Darkness
Child of The Black Baron
The Blood Thorn of The Rose
The Next Sorcerer Supreme Dudes!!

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>
17

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>
Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>
Aiden is rather lanky, standing at 6'4 in height and weighting around 120 pounds. He has unnaturally pale skin, it practically being grey. His irises are deep crimson red and sometimes give off a fiery glow while his sclera are black. His hair is a light blood red and is long, hanging down to his neck, and usually messy. He has a deep blood red scar that goes over his left eye. He normally wears dark T shirts and jeans with a pair of sneakers, like any other teenager, but when he is in battle he switches to a black button up shirt, black dress pants and shoes all under a black and red long coat. He also dawns a golden eye amulet (see second picture above for costume)

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Sorcery-</span> Aiden is quite adapt to the arcane arts, surpassing many of the other magic apprentices his age. He has spent many years learning how to cast a whole assortment of spells to the point that he has built up quite the arsenal.
<span class=""bb-i"">Chaos Magic-</span> Aiden is able to tap into the dangerous and slightly unstable power of chaos magic to augment his spells and physical abilities. Do to its chaotic nature it is hard for Aiden to control the chaos energy, with further training Aiden could get a better control of it.
<span class=""bb-i"">Demonic Physiology-</span> Do to Aiden only being half human his biology is different than that of a human's. For example he is much more durable than the average person, being able to take quite the beating and walk away from it. It takes much longer for him to get tired, he can spend days practicing his magic before exhaustion takes him. Fire doesn't seem able to harm him, he has walked through roaring fires as if they were nothing. He doesn't require as much nourishment as others, a good meal can last him a few weeks, though he does like to eat quite a lot anyway.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Multilingual-</span> Aiden can speak a countless amount of languages, many of which have been dead for thousands of years
<span class=""bb-i"">Arcane Knowledge-</span> Aiden's years of studies have left him with a in depth knowledge of the mystical aspects of life
<span class=""bb-i"">""Hell of a cook""-</span> Though he doesn't need to as often as others Aiden loves eating food and prides himself on his cooking skills. His proudest accomplishment is cooking a batch of chili so spicy that even Dr. Strange refuses to eat it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Holy Magic-</span> Do to who his father is Aiden is vulnerable to the ""lighter"" side of the magic spectrum. This is why he tends to be kind of iffy around religious stuff
<span class=""bb-i"">Physical Strength-</span> Despite being quite durable Aiden is kind of a wimp. He can take a beating, but if he has to rely only on his own physical strength he can't give one back
<span class=""bb-i"">Demonic/Chaotic Nature-</span> If he is not careful it is possible for Aiden to fall to the dark nature that he was born with

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Enchanted Satchel-</span> Aiden has a satchel that has been empowered by a series of spells that allows Aiden to keep a whole library worth of books in it.
<span class=""bb-i"">Arcane Tomes-</span> Aiden keeps a countless amount of books on the mystic arts in his satchel
<span class=""bb-i"">A Stash of Candy and Comic Books-</span> ""Dudes come on I can't be dark arts and demons all the time""
<span class=""bb-i"">A Cellphone-</span> ""I am a teenager and it is 2015, you do the math""

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>
When it comes to origin stories Aiden's is... different to say the least. There was no radioactive spider bites, no explosions of atomic energy, no science experiments gone wrong, no metal covering bone surgeries or anything of the like. It was a handshake and a promise to a interdimensional being of dark magic that brought Aiden into this world, no big deal.

To be a bit less vague Aiden is the result of a deal between the being Dormammu, the magical demon that rules over the Dark Dimension and foe to the Sorcerer Supreme Dr. Strange, and the leader of a group of cultists in the service of Dormammu known as the Brides of Darkness. The leader of the cultists, who is only known as the Black Rose, developed a plan with Dormammu to find a way around the promise he took with Dr. Strange that he would not invade Earth after the Sorcerer Supreme helped him regain control of his dimension. The result of their scheming was that they would create a child that held a piece Dormammu's power who would grow to become a incredibly powerful magic user and conquer Earth in the name of their father, not violating Dormammu's oath yet still giving him Earth.

So it was done, Dormammu placed a portion of his being into The Black Rose which resulted in her impregnation. The pregnancy was considerably normal, besides the random fire starting when ever the baby kicked. When the child was born it turned out it was a boy, a son of Dormammu, with ash grey skin and blood red eyes and hair. He was named Aiden, meaning little fire, and was raised by the women of the cult. 

Aiden spent years being trained by the cultists in the dark arts, him excelling at a quite disturbing pace, until he was nine. That was when the cult's headquarters was discovered by the Sorcerer Supreme himself. Dr. Strange raided the base and captured most of the cultists including Aiden, though the Black Rose escaped. He debated what to do with the child, the Doctor was able to sense the boy's demonic nature. Strange finally came to the conclusion that he would foil Dormammu's plot in the best way possible, he would take the boy under his own wing and raise him on the path of good.

Strange became an adoptive father to Aiden, he being much more caring and actually parent like than the boy's real parents. Aiden even went as far as to take the Doctor's last name to honor him. Strange trained Aiden in the mystic arts, though he was far less demanding than the cult was. It wasn't long until Aiden made it his goal to follow and Dr. Strange's foot steps and become the next Sorcerer Supreme.

Recently Dr. Strange had decided that to help Aiden further in his training that he needs to join a team of young heroes like himself, so he can understand what he would be fighting to protect if he ever does become Sorcerer Supreme.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Aiden has seen some of the darkest, horribly twisted, most vile actions human nature is capable of doing, but he still manages to rock a smile. He seems like your usual teenager, kind of obnoxious, really sarcastic, and over all pretty friendly. He has a sense of humor for almost anything, but he knows when to hold back on the dark or heavy stuff. He doesn't go out of his way to make friends, but won't turn away a new one. When he needs to be he can be pretty insightful, almost mystical some might say. He does have his moments when he goes a little over board with attacks, which can be contributed to his Demonic nature.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Dormammu-</span> Father
<span class=""bb-i"">The Black Rose-</span> Mother

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Halle(Pronounced Holly) Hoffen
<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> Honey
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 17
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Female

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span> <a href=""http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Sound_Manipulation"">Sound Manipulation</a> and a slight knowledge of Healing minor wounds
<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> Halle is skilled in hand to hand combat and can use a large arsenal of ranged or close combat weaponry. Her high dexterity and strength making her a force to be reckoned with. Since she has been training for most of her lifetime, she has extensive knowledge in defense and offense.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span>
- Sound requires a medium to travel through, such as air, ground or water, though it can be virtually anything.
- Though the girl has a strong offense, her defense is lacking however it isn't enough to have her destroyed.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span> None, she prefers to use her body as an outlet, yet on occasion she does snag a weapon or two.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Halle was originally the daughter of a business man whom traveled across the world, many shops of his sprouted mostly in Europe, and some in America. Due to his constant moving about, it was only logical that she follow along and get dragged around the whole world. Though her life was filled with many pleasures, it was usually very boring and endless. She had looked to music as well as her personal trainers to keep her company and pass the time.
Boxing.
Karate.
She went through every physical activity to keep herself fit and sane.
One could say she was naturally a prodigy, and especially so in the field of combat and tactical planning. Her dad was quite mystified by her actions, however didn't object to such teachings since the girl loved it so much.
One a rather cloudy morning, Halle had wandered about a city in Austria since her father had decided to settle down a week before packing up and leaving again. She had encountered a group of gangsters, and on the verge of getting into a fight, she had let out a shrill yell which magnified in volume and practically turned the brains of said criminals into liquid. With their blood spilled freshly onto the pavement, she had realized she unlocked a new skill in destruction.
Halle's father had found her sitting on the street, staring down at the mutilated corpses that she had so caused. The girl was sent off in search of better things for her life.
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Normally quiet, Halle speaks very little unless she is approached in some way. The girl focuses on training and completing objectives more so than association, so her social skills aren't up to par with the others, creating a rather awkward aura in her vicinity.
She shows little to no emotion and is practically an empty shell. After decimating an entire group of people, she has grown quite a hardy exterior and prefers keeping it that way.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family:</span> Her father is still alive, however her mother had fled when she was very young, so her whereabouts are currently unknown.
<span class=""bb-b"">Friends:</span> She has a practically non-existent social life
<span class=""bb-b"">Crush/Relationship:</span> None</div></div>"

Alias: Hawk, Silver Hawk

Age: 21

Gender: Female

Appearance: <img src=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/6d/99/9c/6d999c3149156479bc0a0950c785d7f1.jpg""/> *

*She has two large, white wings that protrude from her back. When the light hits them just right, they look silver. That’s why she’s called Silver Hawk at times. 
**Without the cape. And the silver is actually armor.

Powers: Super Human Speed, Super Reflexes, Super Eyesight, Force Field Manipulation, Ability to see Auras (colors around the human body. This helps her tell heroes from villains in battle), Quick Healing, and Telepathy at times, but most of the time only when she’s flying.

Abilities: Masterful Fighter in Hand to Hand combat, Trained Acrobat, Amazing Swimmer

Weaknesses: Her Telepathy: She cannot control her telekinesis as much as she would like. If many thoughts were aimed at her head, she would fall to the ground from the pain. Her Adoptive Family: Read her history to understand. Guns: She can heal from everything… except a gun.

Equipment: A golden bow with a blue rim and a quiver full of arrows

History:  Taylor wasn’t precisely born with wings… She grew into them. When she was around five years old, she began noticing this small little bumps on her back, spread evenly apart, at the exact same height. She then noticed bones beginning to protrude from them after a month and she freaked out. Her biological parents took her to see a doctor, but when she got X-Rayed, the X-Ray caused rapid cell growth and made her wings sprout right there. Her parents couldn’t bear the sight of her because of these wings and within the next month, they had dropped her off at an adoption home. She learned how to hide her wings by folding them up against her back. She got adopted much faster that way.

She was adopted into a lovely family with a mother, a father, and two older boys. The boys soon went off to college after she was adopted and she was alone with her new parents. One day, the clothing she was wearing ripped from how big her wings were getting and her adoptive parents saw her wings. They did not freak out though. They held her closer and told her that they loved her. She did run away though, when she was eighteen and was found by these people. But she always remembers her family.

Personality: Taylor is very free spirited and fun to be around. She is quick with a laugh and loves to goof off and mess around. She loves to fly and tries to spend most of her ways traveling like that. She also feels like she needs to protect everyone the same way her adoptive parents protected her. She is a good team leader, or follower, whichever they need, and she is loyal. 

Family: Rose and Bob Jones with their sons Caleb and Grayson

Friends: Doesn’t really have any.

Crush/Relationship: Nope

Other: N/A</div>"

Name
Isis

Alias
Black Magic
Cursed One(by her caretakers)

Age
Unknown, though she appears to be an average sixteen year old. 

Gender
Female

Powers
Necromancy; Isis can summon up the cursed souls of the dead, in spiritual forms or in skeletal forms.

Telekinesis; Isis can use telekinesis to lift and manipulate objects, she can also use this to hover, giving her the illusion of flying. 

Nemesis Form; Isis can take the form of someone's worst fear.

Desire Form; Isis can also take on the form of someone's biggest desire.

Enhanced Physical Condition; Isis is at the peak of her physical condition, meaning she is stronger, faster, and smarter than most human beings.

Abilities
Isis is a natural at Hand-to-Hand Combat.

Equipment 
Nothing but Isis and her suit

Weaknesses
Isis is overconfident, and has a large ego, so in a battle she will underestimate foes. 
Since Isis is ""cursed"" she has a large weakness to holy things, such as crosses, so she is basically a vampiric figure.

History
The short story is as follows,  a long time ago Isis was born to a single mother, who had been taken to bed forcefully by a man that disappeared the morning after. Her mother died in childbirth, leaving behind an unwanted child that was shipped straight to the nearest orphanage. At the orphanage, Isis' unnatural powers started to develop, and after one of the caretakers at the orphanage saw Isis floating about in her bedroom, they gave her the nickname ""Cursed One"" and locked her away. One year, on her birthday, the caretakers found a way to get rid of her. Nick Fury was recruiting for his team, and so they managed to catch his eye, and Isis made her way into the team. 

Personality
Isis has never been around many people, but she likes to think she's very friendly. She's never gotten a chance to test her people skills with anyone but the caretakers, who never spoke to her after the incident, so she's fairly awkward. Her ego is inflated, and she likes a bit of attention.

Family
Neveah- Her mother
Unknown(until later on)- Her father

Friends
N/A

Crush/Relationship
She doesn't have a crush or a relationship, unless her teddy bear counts....

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias:</span> Bearman/ Mr. Teddy
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 37
<span class=""bb-b"">Gender:</span> Male
<span class=""bb-b"">Powers</span>
What are the powers of the bearman, you ask? He is a bear, and he is a man. The perks include being a 3 meter tall musclebound beast with claws the size of daggers and a hide so thick it can stop small calibre bullets with ease. And you get to keep your opposable thumbs! Bearman is an enormous, powerful hunk of flesh and claws, backed by human intellect and the capability to use tools.

Bearman has a distinctive sense of smell, and can track people over long distances. He's also quite fast, can climb with ease, and is near to immune to cold temperatures.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities:</span> 
Mastery of a unique martial art called 'Bear Fu'. It focuses on fighting with your bear hands, although there's also a section on armed combat. The reason nobody else can use Bear Fu is because it requires immense physical strength, as well as claws and teeth. 

In all seriousness, Bearman is an expert in melee combat, a master warrior who knows perfectly how to use the strengths of his hybrid form. He's also a good marksman, experienced with the use of fully automatic weaponry, a decent pilot and a good driver. He has extensive military training, can recognize most weapons and tactics for what they are, and has extensive knowledge on the subject of bears.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment:</span>
A custom made suit of armour plating forged from molecularly altered ceramics. In addition to being immune to temperatures of up to 4000 degrees, it's impenetrable to all but the heaviest calibres of bullets. This suit would be too heavy for a normal person, but is comfortable to Bearman.

Often Bearman carries a heavy gattling gun into the battlefield. While usually this weapon would be mounted on a tank, Bearman carries it along with ease, allowing him to unleash immense firepower on his enemies. He lovingly refers to it as 'Vanessa'.

Bearman has an arsenal of weapons at his disposal, from rocket launchers to axes. He may carry any number of additional weapons into the battlefield, if he so desires.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses:</span>
Bearman is Bearman, he needs no weaknesses! Bearman's only weakness is his hatred for stairs - he cannot walk up them. He also severely dislikes small doors, and tight spaces.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span>
Once upon a time, a man was bitten by a radioactive bear. That man died. It was a radioactive bear, there is no way you're going to survive that encounter.

Meanwhile in Russia, the perfect soldier was being developed. Mad scientists mixed man with animal, to create a being with the best traits of both. A bear supesoldier, the soon to be Captain Russia. However, the soldier in question had other plans.

Nikolai escaped the labaratory after the modifications had been completed. The process had meddled with his brain, and he lost his memories. Even now he cannot remember quite what happened, nor can he remember what group had attempted to mutate him. All he knows is that he emerged as Bearman, and he has been Bearman ever since.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Bearman is simple, yet theatrical. He is gentle, with a tendency to make horrible bear puns. He dislikes complexity, and loves to make a show of whatever he happens to be doing. However, he has quite the temper. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

Bearman is loyal to those he trusts, seeing his friends as family. He's straightforward and honest, disliking nothing more than traitors and liars.

He is also severely grumpy in the morning.

<span class=""bb-b"">Family</span>
Everyone is Bearman's family!

<span class=""bb-b"">Friends</span>
Same thing! What's the difference?

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>
Vincent ""Vince"" McLain

<span class=""bb-b"">Alias</span>
XLR8

<span class=""bb-b"">Age</span>
17

<span class=""bb-b"">Gender</span>
Male

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>
Vince is tall, standing at 6'3, and has a well toned muscular body. He has lightly tanned skin that has few scars pepper around it, such as the small one on the right side of his upper lip. He has grey blue eyes that hold a scheming gleam in them. He has messy jet black hair that hangs down to his neck. He normally wears a random rocker T-shirts, his black jacket, a pair of black jeans, some fingerless gloves, and black combat boots. His costume consist of what ever the hell he is wearing at the time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Vector Manipulation</span></span>
Vince is able to change the magnitude and direction, or in other words its vector, of an object to maneuver it in the desired way, regardless of preexisting vectors, this also applies to static or non-moving objects as technically speaking the object still has momentum as it is moving through space. This allows him to basically change the direction and speed a object is heading in, though it is much more drastic than it sounds. Such as he change the vector of a baseball he threw so it is traveling so fast that it can crack concrete, or he can completely stop the vectors of a car that was heading towards him causing the same reaction as if the car crashed into a brick wall. He has been able to redirect the vectors of bullets so that they ""return to sender"" in a pretty bloody way. He can even redirect his own vectors to allow him to move with superhuman speed, augment his punches and kicks so he can shatter stone, lift mind blowing weight, and even simulate flight though he is still bit iffy on that one
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Physical Condition</span></span>
Vince's body is incredibly durable, if it wasn't using his powers on himself would basically cause his insides to explode. He is much stronger, faster, and agile than most humans. He can't take full on gun fire, but he can take a beating that would kill others.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Accelerated Thought Process</span></span>
Do to the nature of his power Vince needs to be able analyze a object's vectors before he can manipulate them otherwise it won't work or worse. As such his mind works at speeds way beyond the capabilities of a normal person. This does not make him a geniuses, but he does learn at a much faster rate than others.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Hand-To-Hand Combat</span></span>
Though he isn't formally trained Vince deploys a form of street fighting that is incredibly affective, especially when paired with his powers. That and he isn't afraid to cheat in combat.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Expert Thief</span></span>
From pickpocketing or lock picking to just being down right sneaky Vince is a master of it all. So make sure to double check your pockets whenever he is in the room.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Parkour</span></span>
Vince is a master freerunner, outdoing almost everyone at it. He has even been able to pair this with his power to make himself even faster and more agile.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Master Impressionist</span></span>
Though it isn't really a too useful skill Vince can mimic any accent perfectly, it has gotten to the point that no one knows which one is his real voice anymore.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Musician</span></span>
Vince is perfect at playing almost any instrument, as if the second one is in his hands he is a master.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Concentration</span></span>
Vince has to keep focuses in order for his powers to work or things can go bad really quickly. As in if he is knocked out while making something go faster the object can end up breaking from going too fast.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Bullet To The Brain</span></span>
If someone can manage to get close enough to him Vince can be killed through most of the usual fatal inducing attacks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>
Anything in the given area really, he relies on his own personal abilities rather than gadgets. Though when he was younger he use to carry around a sack of marbles as his weapon, throwing them and making them move so fast it was like getting hit by a brick.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>
""No one gives two shits about that homeless kid they just walked pass down the street, they are more concerned about whoever the hell is on the other end of their phone and whatever crap gossip they are spouting on about. Well guess what I was one of those kids, it doesn't really matter how I got there my start was basically the same as all the others, piss poor parents who were strung out on some drug or another beating the hell out of the kids they brought into the world. Shit, I don't need to talk about it, I've dealt with that crap a long time ago. What does matter is that I was able to get out of there with my little sister, Emma. ...It wasn't easy having to raise a kid on the streets, I had to go a few nights with out eating to make sure she got enough food. It was like that for a while before this guy, called himself The Kingpin, came to a bunch of us homeless kids with a offer. Work for him and we would get paid beyond our wildest dreams, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know most of us accepted. It didn't take long for me to realize what this job really was, I had joined a gang, but honestly I didn't care. I was able to offered a little place for me and Emma, it wasn't much but it was a roof over our heads. I was one of the Pin's top thieves, getting some of the most high risk jobs in the bunch. Well that was until my powers showed up, that was when things got interesting. I was fourteen and just finished getting a hold of some documents the Kingpin wanted when the owner of the documents, some rival crime lord, busted into the room with a group of some heavily armed dudes. They opened fire and I thought my ass was toast, but something happened. I kept thinking about how I couldn't just die and leave Emma all alone, that if only he had a shield or something, or if only those bullets would turn around and go back to those damn bastards... it actually happened. The bullets came within inches of me before stopping dead in the air and turning back at and flying at full speed into each of the gunmen and the crime boss. I was more than confused, but hey I had a job to get done. I got the documents back to Kingpin and told him what had happened, the giant bastard was more than interested in the story. Turns out I was a mutant with the power to control a objects vectors, or in other words I am badass! Anyway after that I got bumped up from just a thief to one of the Pin's top enforcers, he sent me to collect protection money from the rich people of the city or to ""teach a lesson"" to whoever Pin told me to. And to think I wasn't even fifteen yet! Things were so much better for me and Emma, I was able to get her enrolled in school and everything, though she had no idea what I was doing. This went on for about three years before I had a run in with SHEILD, one of the politicians I was suppose to put some pressure on got a tip that I was coming for him and called up the boy scouts. Long story short they caught me, though I did break quite a few bones that weren't mine in the process. I was expecting a rescue by Pin, but the fatass left me out to dry, the prick. I would be in jail if captain eyepatch, or Fury as everyone else call him, didn't offer me a deal to join some new 'hero in training' program. Well I said I would join as long as Fury swore he would watch out for Emma. Now story time is over, SO GET THE HELL OUT OF MY FACE!!!""

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Vince is the very definition of the word cynical. He believes people would sell there own daughter for the right price, maybe because he has seen it happen. He doesn't see himself as any better, but at least he is honest about it. He is cocky, showing off at nearly any opportunity he gets. The way he puts it there is no black and white in life, just a whole bunch of bullshit brown so you should better get use to it. He loves music, even classical though he rarely listens to it, he mainly listens to rock or heavy metal, if it isn't shaking the ground then it doesn't count is his motto about music. He has no problem being the blunt person in the room, he enjoys it in fact. His over all tone is sarcastic, unless he is mad then it is like a nuclear bomb just been set and you better look out for the explosion. He has a soft spot for kids, they being the only ones completely full of bullshit in his eyes.

Vince is able to change the magnitude and direction, or in other words its vector, of an object to maneuver it in the desired way, regardless of preexisting vectors, this also applies to static or non-moving objects as technically speaking the object still has momentum as it is moving through space. This allows him to basically change the direction and speed a object is heading in, though it is much more drastic than it sounds. Such as he change the vector of a baseball he threw so it is traveling so fast that it can crack concrete, or he can completely stop the vectors of a car that was heading towards him causing the same reaction as if the car crashed into a brick wall. He has been able to redirect the vectors of bullets so that they ""return to sender"" in a pretty bloody way. He can even redirect his own vectors to allow him to move with superhuman speed, augment his punches and kicks so he can shatter stone, lift mind blowing weight, and even simulate flight though he is still bit iffy on that one
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Superhuman Physical Condition</span></span>
Vince's body is incredibly durable, if it wasn't using his powers on himself would basically cause his insides to explode. He is much stronger, faster, and agile than most humans. He can't take full on gun fire, but he can take a beating that would kill others.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Accelerated Thought Process</span></span>
Do to the nature of his power Vince needs to be able analyze a object's vectors before he can manipulate them otherwise it won't work or worse. As such his mind works at speeds way beyond the capabilities of a normal person. This does not make him a geniuses, but he does learn at a much faster rate than others.

<span class=""bb-b"">Abilities</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Hand-To-Hand Combat</span></span>
Though he isn't formally trained Vince deploys a form of street fighting that is incredibly affective, especially when paired with his powers. That and he isn't afraid to cheat in combat.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Expert Thief</span></span>
From pickpocketing or lock picking to just being down right sneaky Vince is a master of it all. So make sure to double check your pockets whenever he is in the room.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Parkour</span></span>
Vince is a master freerunner, outdoing almost everyone at it. He has even been able to pair this with his power to make himself even faster and more agile.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Master Impressionist</span></span>
Though it isn't really a too useful skill Vince can mimic any accent perfectly, it has gotten to the point that no one knows which one is his real voice anymore.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Musician</span></span>
Vince is perfect at playing almost any instrument, as if the second one is in his hands he is a master.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weaknesses</span>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Concentration</span></span>
Vince has to keep focuses in order for his powers to work or things can go bad really quickly. As in if he is knocked out while making something go faster the object can end up breaking from going too fast.
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Bullet To The Brain</span></span>
If someone can manage to get close enough to him Vince can be killed through most of the usual fatal inducing attacks.

<span class=""bb-b"">Equipment</span>
Anything in the given area really, he relies on his own personal abilities rather than gadgets. Though when he was younger he use to carry around a sack of marbles as his weapon, throwing them and making them move so fast it was like getting hit by a brick.

<span class=""bb-b"">History</span>
""No one gives two shits about that homeless kid they just walked pass down the street, they are more concerned about whoever the hell is on the other end of their phone and whatever crap gossip they are spouting on about. Well guess what I was one of those kids, it doesn't really matter how I got there my start was basically the same as all the others, piss poor parents who were strung out on some drug or another beating the hell out of the kids they brought into the world. Shit, I don't need to talk about it, I've dealt with that crap a long time ago. What does matter is that I was able to get out of there with my little sister, Emma. ...It wasn't easy having to raise a kid on the streets, I had to go a few nights with out eating to make sure she got enough food. It was like that for a while before this guy, called himself The Kingpin, came to a bunch of us homeless kids with a offer. Work for him and we would get paid beyond our wildest dreams, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know most of us accepted. It didn't take long for me to realize what this job really was, I had joined a gang, but honestly I didn't care. I was able to offered a little place for me and Emma, it wasn't much but it was a roof over our heads. I was one of the Pin's top thieves, getting some of the most high risk jobs in the bunch. Well that was until my powers showed up, that was when things got interesting. I was fourteen and just finished getting a hold of some documents the Kingpin wanted when the owner of the documents, some rival crime lord, busted into the room with a group of some heavily armed dudes. They opened fire and I thought my ass was toast, but something happened. I kept thinking about how I couldn't just die and leave Emma all alone, that if only he had a shield or something, or if only those bullets would turn around and go back to those damn bastards... it actually happened. The bullets came within inches of me before stopping dead in the air and turning back at and flying at full speed into each of the gunmen and the crime boss. I was more than confused, but hey I had a job to get done. I got the documents back to Kingpin and told him what had happened, the giant bastard was more than interested in the story. Turns out I was a mutant with the power to control a objects vectors, or in other words I am badass! Anyway after that I got bumped up from just a thief to one of the Pin's top enforcers, he sent me to collect protection money from the rich people of the city or to ""teach a lesson"" to whoever Pin told me to. And to think I wasn't even fifteen yet! Things were so much better for me and Emma, I was able to get her enrolled in school and everything, though she had no idea what I was doing. This went on for about three years before I had a run in with SHEILD, one of the politicians I was suppose to put some pressure on got a tip that I was coming for him and called up the boy scouts. Long story short they caught me, though I did break quite a few bones that weren't mine in the process. I was expecting a rescue by Pin, but the fatass left me out to dry, the prick. I would be in jail if captain eyepatch, or Fury as everyone else call him, didn't offer me a deal to join some new 'hero in training' program. Well I said I would join as long as Fury swore he would watch out for Emma. Now story time is over, SO GET THE HELL OUT OF MY FACE!!!""

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Vince is the very definition of the word cynical. He believes people would sell there own daughter for the right price, maybe because he has seen it happen. He doesn't see himself as any better, but at least he is honest about it. He is cocky, showing off at nearly any opportunity he gets. The way he puts it there is no black and white in life, just a whole bunch of bullshit brown so you should better get use to it. He loves music, even classical though he rarely listens to it, he mainly listens to rock or heavy metal, if it isn't shaking the ground then it doesn't count is his motto about music. He has no problem being the blunt person in the room, he enjoys it in fact. His over all tone is sarcastic, unless he is mad then it is like a nuclear bomb just been set and you better look out for the explosion. He has a soft spot for kids, they being the only ones completely full of bullshit in his eyes.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">Powers:</font></span> Telekinetic Push-where as possessors of telekinesis are capable or completely manipulating an object with their mind Overwatch can only push objects back in a swift blast of telekinetic energy. To put it simply when Overwatch extends his hands towards an object he can use his power to throw the object back a certain distance depending on its size, resistance to his power(like if someone tries to fight against being pushed back), and how much energy he focuses into the push.
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">Abilities:</font></span> Superhuman speed and strength as well as healing factor and mastery of sniper rifles. Extensive training in hand to hand combat.
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">Weaknesses:</font></span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>G1 Wardens had healing factors which made them practically immortal. Because of this it caused most to go insane from experiencing events which should have killed them but didn't. The D.M.A. was forced to bring down the healing factor to the point where injuries such as broken bones, cuts, organ damage would heal but if limbs are severed it will not reattach.</li><li>Warden G2s are more human and so are prone to emotional distractions. Their emotions have more sway on their decisions and so G2s can sometimes be incapable of completing assignments depending on their moral compass as each G2 is unique in its personality.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">Equipment:</font></span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li>Electrified Combat Knife</li><li>SR-Volt Rifle: A sniper rifle variation of the SWC-Volt Rifle which instead of firing electric assault rounds is capable of firing long range rounds with the same electric effect. The SR stands for special requisition, what makes it special is that the shooter can determine the exact wattage in each round from minimal being a shock capable of disabling electronic devices to maximum being able to kill or release an EMP upon impact.</li><li>Standard Warden II Stealth Armor-The wearer is invisible for as long as is required however they are not invisible in the sense that once activated is impossible to see. In truth one can see the wearer if looking carefully, one would see light bending where the soldier is.</li></ul>
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">Personality:</font></span> Overwatch is a very cynical and angry person. He isn't in a constant rage just he always seems to be upset with something and rarely smiles. It very hard to get past the cold shell he has created but sometimes he shows a bit of his real self who is a sarcastic asshole...but a loyal one. 

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""deepskyblue"">History:</font></span>(Pulling a crossover here if that's okay)The Department of Meta Human Affairs wanted to create a superhuman peacekeeping force that would be stationed around the world to act as first responders against any hostile anomalies. The first superhumans created were the Generation 1 Wardens, these super soldiers were efficient killing machines but that was all they were. Killing machines. The D.M.A. noticed most Warden G1s were sociopathic with some becoming psychopathic after long periods of time.

In an attempt to improve the program a new breed of Wardens were created. These Warden G2s were more human with actual emotions were as the Warden 1s were mindless killing machines. The G2s were a success and all production of them was increased 100%. However with more free will these G2s developed as normal people would.

Overwatch was one of the later Warden-IIs and a special one at that. All Wardens were grown in vats until they were about eighteen then put into service. Overwatch and a select few were part of an experimental Warden program named ""Project: Scions"". These selected Wardens were grown in vats till about the age of six where they were taken out and raised by the same scientists that grew them. The facility where they lived was known as ""The Incubator"" where the young Wardens spent most of their lives growing up as normal children would(besides the fact their parents were scientists who grew them and they couldn't leave their home which was a giant underground bunker).

The Scions were raised by the scientists until their eighteenth birthday where they underwent a test to determine if they were fit for duty. Surprisingly they all passed with flying colors and the Scions were declared full fledged Wardens. With the group showing good chemistry together it seemed only fitting to put them in a squad together. The group was stationed in Saudi Arabia to protect civilians from insurrectionists. The Specters had been in Saudi Arabia for four years without a single mission failure. However this would change as one day their base was attacked by a large group of insurrectionists. The Specters held the base for a week before they were overrun and only Overwatch survived. The overseers of Project Scions decided the project itself was the cause of the squads failure and so shut down Project Scion, making Overwatch the last Scion Warden in existence.

Overwatch was put on solo duty but quickly showed signs of mental instability and was designated for execution were it not for one of his upbringers from Project Scion intervening on his behalf. Instead he was discharged and handed over to the New Heroes Initiative for rehabilitation.

The rifle itself can determine the setting of the bullet whether or not it is electric or regular ballistic rounds.

The healing factor isn't from Deadpool however and is caused by cybernetic augmentation that is introduced to the body while still being grown.

Worn dark jeans and dark sneakers completed the casual, yet practical look. His skin was rather pale, and his nearly glowing blue eyes had a bit of redness around them - possibly from some sort of insomnia. His rather curly, yet tamed, dark brown hair was normal as well - overall, he appeared to be just a regular, albeit slightly intimidating young man, wearing casual street clothing. No one would suspect that he was a hero or villain.

As he got closer to the others, Jason stopped, and tilted his head, the biomass inside of his brain lending exponential strength to his ear canals. The sound of a girl murmuring to herself in the bathroom, glass shattering, and the breathing of another two teenagers sitting down nearby the bathroom. With a shrug, the bored-looking teenager continued to walk, entering the small room on the private jet. ""Hey."" he said simply, raising one hand before sitting down a bit aways from the others. He leaned back, and promptly took out a black phone. Within seconds, he began to type, seemingly ignoring the others for now. Inwardly, however, was a different story. Unknown to anyone, a small, flesh-like red tentacle formed from his shoulder, a small, insect-like eyeball on the tip. It observed them without blinking, even as Jason flipped the phone to some sort of game that the occasional 'flap' echoed from.</div>"

She tapped her fingers on the side of her phone as she scrolled through the contents of her phone, finding something to do to pass the time. She refused to talk to others, partly because they were all rather shady, and mostly because she wasn't very willing to make any new acquaintances.

As he clicked out of the app, a black, futuristic screen meeting him, he was suddenly bombarded with the thousands of voices of the people he had killed. They had their own little, shitty city inside of his mind, and immediately, he mentally organized them, making sure that he could only hear the voices of the relatively 'sane' residents he had killed. There was a German scientists voice - a man he had killed whilst snooping through a rather shady underground base.

<span class=""bb-i"">'Zat girl,'</span> the Scientists murmured, immediately hushing the voices from others, <span class=""bb-i"">'Ze one with ze 'eadphones. Ze must have zomethin' to do wit' sound. And zat one - the bathroom one. She must have zomethin' to do wit' Zpiderman; her outfit zays it all. Gaudy 'tings, zuper'ero ou-'</span> 

Even though the information was useful, Jason already knew these things; his tentacle eye, which had just sunk back into his jacket, had already been busy sending information about these people to his main brain. Yes, technically, Jason had dozens of brains, but only one - his 'main' one, was flesh. The other brains were the prolonged, stasis brains of his victims. As the scientist's voice faded away into grumbling complaints about the gaudiness of superhero costumes, Jason sat his phone on the table and finally looked up, his blue eyes nearly glowing in the light. His first glance was at the sound girl a table away, and then to the 'spider-chick', and finally to the other two nondescript teenagers. This was supposed to be his team?

He smirked, looking back down at his phone, his elongated canines briefly on display. Yeah, right. They were prey.</div>"

The ramp begins to lower, as the plane continues to fly towards the training facility.

Looking at the one guy still asleep(Aiden), and I use my web shooters to grab two of the parachutes, throwing one at the sleeping guy, to wake him up, then the other to Halle.

Rather, a small grin could be seen on his lips. He rested his hands in the pocket of his exterior jacket, and tilted his head. With one stomp, the floor underneath him collapsed in sharp shards of metal, and Jason was suddenly freefalling completely straight, his hands still in his pockets. What seemed to be streams of crimson, sharp, haze-like biomass began to stream from his feet and elbows, even as he stayed ramrod straight. At the figure of a flying, winged female flying towards him, he shook his head once before turning his eyes to the disappearing plane. <span class=""bb-b"">""Now this is more like it.""</span> He grinned to himself, the wind seemingly having no effect on his skin or mouth functions.</div>"

Getting up and heading toward the back there seemed to be one of the four parachutes left. She didn't need one, but it could be funny to take it anyway. 

For a moment the thought crossed her mind that that would be something her mother would do when one of the other girls jumped. Well that took some of the wind out of her sails. She must have had some way to land. Another apparently made his own way out. Very well. Crossing her arms 533 walked off the ramp and began to freefall. Her method was simple, drop like a rock and let the ground break her fall. On the way down she waved slightly to Jason who appeared to have a similar approach.</div>"

""No. You will follow me to your quarters and you will head to training immediately. Please follow me."" She opens the doors in front of them and walks inside. Inside is the tiled floor and metal walls that she has become accustom to. She remembers back when she first walked these halls. 

<span class=""bb-i"">She had been eighteen years old, just found fresh of the streets, with cuts on her wings as she had tried to saw them off. They took her to a large meeting room and set her down. They made her stay put and she waited for what seemed like hours. She then saw a man with only one eye walk in and look at her. She had not seen anyone like him before, but she knew that he has seen people like her before. He introduced himself as Fury before explaining what she was supposed to do there. She was to be apart of their new heroes crew or whatever and everything would be alright with her. The one catch, though, is she had to obey their every command. She agreed immediately, knowing it was a better life than on the streets, but she couldn't help but feel there was something going on</span>

Hawk is jolted out of her reverie as the quarters comes up. She stops in front of them and points to the doors. ""These are your quarters. Get situated. Fury might be here soon enough.""</div>"

I don't really know what is going on. It might also be possible that we are here because this is some kind of mission or something..? I just wanna know why we are here.

Finally! They walked into the facility, hopefully Aiden would be attentive and walk behind her. ""Trainings...?"" she said looking around and actually admiring how cool the place looked.

Now they had to wait for Fury.</div>"

Gwen: Felling a bit annoyed that Hawk ignored me, I look around the room, noting that there are more then enough bunks for everyone.

But he was able to shrug it off and refocuses his attention on the following the group, though a small furrow remained on his brow. As the group entered the room Aiden stopped and look around, standing next to Cass. He quickly realized that everyone would be sharing the same room, both males and females. <span class=""bb-b"">""Crude, I didn't know we would be sharing a room.

Isis growled as she heard what the girl said said. That was rude, and after all her years of verbal abuse, she was getting tired of it.

Sleeping for…about thirteen hours really builds an appetite."" I say this nonchalantly, as if we weren't knocked unconscious and flown here, then chucked out a plane.

Wanda: I catch the hairbrush, and rub my ponytail that is sticking out the back of my mask. I smile under my mask at Isis, and shake my head no when she asks if I talk to my mother with that mouth.

Hell he could even deal with someone bad mouthing him and his magic no problem, but when that Deadpool wannabe started about Doctor Strange... No no he wasn't going to think about this, he was done with that crap for now. Aiden had just let out a huff when he walked by a open door that caused him to do a double take. The door lead to the building's kitchen, not the most extravagant room but it was clearly top of the line. <span class=""bb-b"">""Hmmm... This, this I like.""</span> He said as his usual smirk came to his face.

The training room, now this is what Cassandra likes. A room where she could train her butt off and blow off some steam. 

She kept thinking about Aiden and what he was doing but he had to be left alone! Yeah, she had too. And why was she even thinking about him so much? There was something about that guy.

She was laughing, her eyes bright with enjoyment. She wished she had brought Dr. Bear, because if she had she would be talking with him and showing him the place. <span class=""bb-i"">Finally I can enjoy myself,</span> Isis thought.

Isis kept up this act until a sweet aroma filled the air, her eyes widened, and she titled her head. What was that smell coming from? She thought about following it, and in the end, that's exactly what she did. She ended up in a kitchen area, that was large and full of multiple instruments fit for cooking.

""Soo!"" Cassandra turned around taking a sip of her milk, deciding to offer them some. ""Do you guys want some milk before I put it inside?"" she said taking another sip as the milk mark was on her lips but she didn't notice. If she did, pretty embarrassing if ya ask me.</div>"

That was pretty nasty, but she figured they enjoyed it. She walked into the room, prepared to be a third wheel. She Sat down in the corner of the room, and watched them.

Isis took another step back, and without speaking, she raised her arms. In front of her, a crack appeared in the earth, immediately a burst of heat would come from the crack, and with it, two knights dressed in black armor. The held swords that glowed white with heat, and stared at Aiden. It appeared as though they were almost transparent. Behind the two transparent knights, were skeletons. They each held a spear of sharpened bone in their hands, ready to pounce. The crack closed up, and the heat that filled the air faded away. Isis stood, her arms slowly lowering, she smiled nervously at Aiden. 

""<font color=""red"">Aggredere, ministros.</font>"" She said, in a language that sounded like Latin. The troops charged at Aiden, the skeletons taking the lead and the knights standing at the ready. One skeleton swiped visiciously at Aiden's head, and the other tried to maul his legs. ""<font color=""lightblue"">They won't kill you! I think!</font>"" Shouted Isis, watching them attack Aiden. She used her telekinesis to hover above the ground.</div>"

The heat didn't faze his, honestly it felt rather nice to the boy. But what did get him was the aggression with the skeletons attacked. He was just able to jump back and then over the skeletons that swiped at him. <span class=""bb-b"">""Merlin's beard! Yu do have them under control don't you?!""</span> He said as he regained his stance. <font color=""#fff200"">""I invoke the Bolts of Bedevilment!""</font> He said, his voice echoing slightly, as he held out his hand towards the skeletons. A moment later a circular yellow sigil burned in front of his hand that then released a beam of yellow light at the skeletons. If it made contact with them the chances of them become a pile of ash on the floor was pretty high.</div>"

They're under my control, they just like to have a little fun.</font>"" Isis said, frowning as he suggested that she wasn't in control. It did seem that way though. She watched as he cast a spell, and with her telekinesis She managed to pull a skeleton up into the sky, while his brother got burnt into a pile of ash. She sent the skeleton flying towards Aiden, its spear at the ready. She looked at her two knights and sighed, she didn't like to use them. 

""<font color=""red"">Equites regii. Non mortem!</font>"" She shouted, pointing at Aiden. The Knights, now with new purpose, charged at Aiden as if he had a target painted on his face. She folded her arms and watched silently, biting her lips. She didn't want to conjure anymore, but she would probably have to. If not that, she would have to become Aiden's biggest fear.</div>"

He managed to sloppily dodge each of their swings of their swords, he was less than graceful as he fell multiple times. <font color=""#003471"">""I call upon The Shackles of Sheol!""</font> He said in the same echoing voice as before, this time a blue sigil glowed in front of him that sent out glowing blue bindings that if they hit their mark would bind the knights together</div>"

If she got to him, she wpulf herself appear as Isis again, and send a fist flying towards his face.</div>"

He felt all hope drain from his body, he saw the end, his end, as the Lord of Dread approached him. Then he saw Isis, quickly fallowed by her fist into his face.

Again and again they had told him it wasn't, but Bearman could practically smell it. Weapons, sweat, determination..... this was a place where soldiers were trained. Whether they used guns, or some form of paranormal ability, it made little difference. They were the men and women who chose a cause to fight for, who chose a cause to die for. They were the soldiers of this new organization, SHIELD.

Walking through the hallways, he considered the implications of being a soldier once again. He couldn't remember his own time serving the Soviet Union, and as such he had little experience he could call upon. However, in certain ways the concept was appealing. He had always enjoyed fighting, and if one is going to fight anyway, why not do so in a manner that helps people? At least at the moment, Bearman could find no reason not to do so, which was why he had accepted SHIELD's invitation in the first place.

The sound and smell of battle, not too far away. It was not battle with guns, but rather with paranormal capabilities, as would be expected in a facility such as this. For some reason, people were fighting.

Moving on all fours, Bearman rushed through the tight corridors. SHIELD personnel and guards alike were bowled over, some managing to jump aside in time to avoid an unhealthy meeting with the ground. Arriving at the scene of the fight, he found his way barred by a door - and a small one at that. However, there was no time to find an alternate route.

With a crack and a bang, the wall collapsed, as the door itself was propelled across the room, slowly skidding to a stop on the stone floor of the training area. Through the newly created hole stepped Bearman, standing on his hind legs as he marched into the area. The cloud of dust and broken stone that had gathered around his legs like a brownish fog only added to the figure he struck. ""Bearman has arrived! Where is da fighting?!""</div>"

He couldn't be mad at her, she was just using her powers. But he didn't have long to properly regain his footing before a on slot of questions cane to him by his other team mates. He awkwardly shuffled on his feet and rubbed the back of his neck. <span class=""bb-b"">""Uhh he is... uhh nobody, don't worry about it.""</span> He clumsily stammered out, trying to find a way to change the topic.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Smooth move you over grown teddy bear, it isn't like doors open or anything.""</span> A dark haired boy in a Three Days Grace T-shirt under a black leather jacket said as he walked through the cloud of dust that used to be the door to the training room. He had a cocky smirk on his face and his arms crossed in front of his broad chest as he looked over the people in the room. <span class=""bb-b"">""Sup chumps, you can call me Vince.""</span></div>"

He'd make sure to throw him across the room sometime. In Bearman's experience, high-speed impacts with the far wall had a tendency to severely reduce people's tendency to be annoying. Occasionally due to fear of repetition, and occasionally because they were incapable of cognitive thought. Either way, it was a highly effective method, which he had found need to apply often.

""You build your doors too small! You need a bear-sized door!"" Growling, bearman marched across the room, as he looked down. One of the people here smelled like demon. Bearman had no problem with demons, unlike most sentient beings in general. As long as demons didn't mess with him, he didn't mess with them - and as far as he could remember, no demon had messed with him or his family. The others were human, as far as Bearman could tell. Most of them were but children, clearly unsuited for battle. ""Why are all these children here, fighting? You should be in your rooms, and let the grownups fight!""

Had Bearman had eyebrows, he would have furrowed them. Whilst this group certainly smelled strange, he found the quantity of teenagers among them disconcerting. What were they doing in a military location?</div>"

I don't know about these people…but I will have you know that I am twenty-three!"" I grin at Bearman, aiming my web shooters at both of his feet. Firing the webbing at him, it coats his feet and sticks to the ground. ""Now apologize for breaking the door…which by the way, was Hulk sized…trust me.""

Turning back to Aiden, I giving him a look of disbelief, ""Now, why did you mention Dormammu when Isis became your greatest fear, if he is no one. I have hear the name before, so spill it…"" I stare directly at Aiden, aiming my web shooters at Bearman.

Cassandra shrugged not knowing what they were talking about as she finally stood up, seeing that she was knelt down next to Aiden trying to figure out what was going on with him but it seems that, it was taken care of. <font color=""yellow"">""Alrighty then...""</font> she placed a hand on Aiden's back giving him a smile.

She had come hoping to see a fight, not watch a bunch of girls fall all over themselves for Aiden. Bearman was almost a welcome change of pace as he took the wall down with the door. Some new hotshot made a comment on that particular action and Gwen as usual was still talking. The comment about children was  

Groaning slightly she walked over and looked over the hole in the wall. ""<font color=""crimson""><span class=""bb-b"">It looks like an improvement to me.

Whilst certainly unexpected, this was mildly annoying at best. Was this her power? To mildly annoy people with sticky white stuff? He'd just....

Frowning, he looked down as he tried to walk, finding that his feet were stuck to the ground. Had she shot him with some kind of glue? If so, that would certainly explain why she'd looked so smug when she'd hit him. ""You girls and your glue...."" Obviously, however, she had made a mistake. It was a rather large mistake, and one Bearman had been surprised she would make. A mistake that was the undoing of any kind of attack. She'd used it on Bearman!

With grunt, he ripped a grouping of bricks from the ground, the web sticking to the shattered fragments of stone. It took him a second to find his balance, it had been a long time since he'd worn shoes. ""You should be old enough to know that it's never a good idea to make the bears angry...."" Walking over to Spiderwoman, Bearman cracked a slight smile. His mouth, whilst similar to that of a bear, was quite capable of smiling. It was a rather odd sight. ""I do hope these things dissolve. Else the situation might become.... unbearable."" The bear chuckled softly.

""Don't worry, Bearman is not easily offended. Neither by your puny doors, or by your glue. Now, where is the food in this building? I could eat a horse!"" Smiling brightly now, Bearman looks around at his new comrades.</div>"

I... I just don't want to talk about it okay?""</span> Aiden said as Gwen pressed him about the topic. After the events of being called a evil magic user he really didn't want to find out what would happen if they all found out that he was the son of a interdimensional being of pure magic. He managed a smile as Cass placed her hand on her back, he was grateful someone was getting the message that this was a sore topic for him. Though he didn't speak the words but his eyes clearly said <span class=""bb-i"">'Thanks Blondie.'</span>

She didn't do much to hide it either. ""<font color=""lightblue"">Aiden. He must be important to you somehow, and if you don't just fess up we'll all be concerned about the secret you're keeping. We're your team, you can't just choose one person to fall back on. If you don't trust all of us, we won't trust you.</font>"" She pointed at Aiden and Cassandra, her voice turning cold.

Cassandra was still worried about Aiden because what happened back there was a completely different person, he didn't get that scared. She looked at Isis, speaking. <font color=""yellow"">""I think, we should just let him calm down and not speak about it until he is more comfortable...in telling us....""</font> she nodded turning her attention back to Aiden as her hand was on his shoulder, still worried.</div>"

Unfortunately for them, I got multiple personalities from the experience. I also got certain memories from both of them. They tried to kill me, and start over with a new clone, this time they would erase their mind, and put info of why they were to be trusted. When I escaped, I destroyed all the information on the cloning process, and the DNA from both of my 'parents', after I went to New York, I asked Spiderman for help. So I have the face of his dead love, and I have two people in my head. Did I mention that Nick Fury put me in jail for a month while they tested my DNA to see if there was anything wrong?"" I turn back to Bearman, grabbing his hand and using it to jump over him. Walking over to the women's bathroom/changing room, I walk inside and into a stall. Locking the stall, I punch toilet seat, causing it to shatter.

Once again, things had gotten far too complicated for his liking. Humans were such noisy creatures, always getting upset, always rushing through life at a breakneck pace. ""Look, I know I am new here, but we are going to be working together for a long time, no? We will get to know each other, but we must know how much to know. Everyone will share their story in time."" He rubbed one paw over his rugged forehead, slightly awkward at the entire situation. Bearman had never been much of a speaker. ""The girl will calm down in time, and then she may speak more. But we should not press things.""

Sitting down in the centre of the floor, Bearman started working the concrete and webs from his feet using his claws. ""I am Bearman, the result of a supersoldier program in Russia. I do not know who I was before, but it does not matter. Now I am Bearman. I came here so that I might help people, and meet those who would not fear my appearance."" He glances upwards at the small gathering of mutants and mages. ""So then, who are you? Tell only what you wish to. But I would like to know who I will be fighting besides.""</div>"

He got what she was getting out, he appreciated it in fact. But he just couldn't do it himself. He has dealt with being a Hellspawn his whole life, so when he was now in a group of people who didn't know what he was he didn't want to give it up... well just not yet. He gave a slight smile to Bearman, he liked what the big guy was getting at. <span class=""bb-b"">""My names Aiden and I am the best cook this side of heaven and hell.""</span> He said with even a slight smirk.

---------------

Vince rolled his eyes at the situation in front of him. <span class=""bb-b"">""Touchy feely blah blah blah.""</span> He said as he looked over the group. <span class=""bb-b"">""As long as you aren't complete crap in a fight and won't get me killed I don't care about your back story.""</span></div>"

And please use the designated doors.</span> The computerized voice says through the speakers.

Gwen: I fix my mask, and head out of the bathroom. I make my way into the hallway and sneak to the dining area, I look around at the feast layer out for use, and grab a plate of steak, some green beans, and a sweet potato. Walking to the very back of the room, I set down my tray and reach up, flipping the mouth part of my mask up, but not enough to impair my vision or show off much of my face besides my lips and chin.


Wanda: I hear the announcement and run down the hallway. Entering the cafeteria, I pile a plate with every kind of meat…even a 'haggis', whatever that is. I sit down at the front table, watching for everyone to enter the room. I take out my knife and carve into the table <span class=""bb-i"">Kool Kidz</span> and grin at myself.</div>"

He was glad for the excuse to leave the room and hopefully the topic behind. He headed towards the what use to be the door to the training room while sticking his hands in his pockets and humming slightly. When he made it to the dinning room he grabbed a plate he filled it with a combination of salad and fish. He then saw that5 Gwen had decided to sit by herself. He let out a sigh before he took his plate and walked over to her. <span class=""bb-b"">""Uh hey...""</span> He sighed again before he continued. <span class=""bb-b"">""Look I'm sorry if I came off as a jerk or secretive before, it's just that this is a sore topic for me that I don't like talking about in general.""</span>

<span class=""bb-b"">""Chow time huh? About damn time if you ask me.""</span> Vince says after hearing the announcements over the speakers. With out another word to the rest of the team he turned on his heels, placed his hands behind his head in a carefree manner, and strolled out of the training room and to the dinning hall. Once he was in front of the buffet that was set out for the team Vince practically pounced on it. He pilled half a ham, a whole chicken, a slab of ribs, and four burgers on three plates before he decided he had enough food for now. He looked around for a place to set down his score of food, he spotted some chick in red spandex carving something into one of the tables. Vince walked over to her, setting down his plates and picking up one of the burgers. He bit into it and looked down at what was carved into the table. <span class=""bb-b"">""I think you better run a spell check on that.""</span> He said with a mouth full of burger.</div>"

She felt conflicted, wanting to either go and apologize, or continue to bug Aiden. She shook her head and took a small bite of her food. ""<font color=""lightblue"">Dr. Bear, people are messed up.</font>"" She muttered through a mouthful of food, sighing and closing her eyes.</div>"

He was assaulted from all sides by the smell of a hundred delicacies, or at least that's how he would refer to the many kinds of meat on display. He had always found raw meat to be nicer than the cooked variant, but there were just so many ways to cook a steak. Cooking gave a great variation, which was reason enough to love the table laid out before him.

Ignoring the presence of chairs entirely, Bearman dropped on all fours, roaring in delight as he - quite literally - tore into a plate piled full of steak. From there he moved to chicken, pork, and a variety of spiced meats and sauces, regaining his manners once the greater part of his hunger had been sated. ""It is a good man who knows how to serve good food!"" This, for Bearman, was one of the best things in life. To be able to stuff your face and not care about the world.</div>"

533 is fresh out of the only place she ever knew. From a lab, to a cell, and then to an island. She's never seen what it's like outside in the real world. Doesn't even have a name and even though she knew her mother she was abusive. Of the three she has no real learning to speak of and does not have a genius level intellect.<footer><a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/t2wave"">@t2wave</a></footer></blockquote>

This was also my concern. I am interested in how this would really be helpful. Maybe if they could get him into a submarine, blow up the sub, and sink him in the ocean. But other then that, how would you get massive amounts of water pressure?

However, because I am interested in seeing it continue, I would like to offer to make some kind of opposition, or 'bad guys'. It's a superhero story, but up until now there hasn't been much heroic going on. Perhaps Fury shows up and starts some intense trining regimen, perhaps the base is attacked, maybe there's aliens, or demons!

My plan is simply to give the players something to do, and active contribution they can perform to further the story.

I muttered with strained breaths. My gaze remained locked on the corpse in front of me, a tall male figure with warm tan skin lay there leaking from his neck and mouth. I take in a deep breath as the shaking that surged through my body fades with the adrenaline rush that had just enveloped me. Pushing the blade back into its handle, I slide my knife back into my pocket before wiping the fresh blood from my hands onto the corpses clothing, the clean parts anyway. After a quick pat down I find a key chain with only a single small security box key on it and a dead mobile phone.

Grasping at the mobile phone I stare at it in contemplation, 'such a device was made obsolete in this world weeks ago. Clinging to your old humanity is futile, such devices have no value in this world.' I shove the mobile phone and key chain into my pockets before turning my back to the grizzly mess I had made, <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> will be coming soon and when <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> spot his blood, <span class=""bb-i"">they'll</span> be in a frenzy.

Taking quick and quiet steps I dart from afternoon shadow to afternoon shadow, passing several corpses on the way, including some that still moved, however, timing my strolls from block to block with the echoes of thrown stones to my back is enough to make any zombie completely blind to my presence. It's not long before I find myself in front of what used to be a gun shop. Abandoned and ransacked, this place only offers shelter and meagre security from the out-side world, it wasn't a location I had envied or desired but it was enough in my time of need.

After loosening the chain on the steel screen door I allow myself inside, then securing the entrance behind me. As I did everyday, I wondered into the makeshift storage room Valerie and I had arranged to store any resources we could get our hands on. A deep sigh escapes my lips as I notice that severed fingers had been left on one of the shelves next to a sealed package of water bottles I had found only a few days prior. Grasping one of the fingers in my hand I was surprised as to how soft and malleable the skin still was, these were fresh, that's for sure. I started to wonder if Valerie maybe had an accident, but the thought didn't possess me for long. Putting the finger back I strolled back into the front room, gun racks littered the walls but not a single gun or bullet would be found anywhere in this room.

Moving to the bordered up display window at the front of the store, a small anxiety built inside of me as I turned my thoughts to the recent matters involving a group of survivors. 'That den of scum is getting larger, if I do not act soon I will find myself once again getting kicked from my abode. Relocation wont be as smooth this time either now that I have Valerie and her... eccentric activities to provide for and house. I'd already be rid of her if it were not for the vaccine she had produced, there is value in keeping it from the other groups for now.' I thought to myself as a lone legless zombie crawled in and out of my scope of vision from the bordered up window. ""Such simple, dumb creatures."" I state in a nonchalant tone.</div>"

Slice! Slice! Cut! Cut! Cut! Let's see how the experiment ended UUUP!"" I sing aloud as I put my rusty utensils to work. Excitement envelops me as I grasp for the metal syringe I had been forced to re-use for quite sometime now. Exacting a little bit of purple serum from a corked bottle I had requested Leigh to obtain for me, I inject the serum into a fresh severed zombie arm, then taking samples from three equally spaced sections of the arm I leap to my feet and secure the samples in three different vials. As I reach for my lab-coat I can hear the rustle of chain link sliding on chain link and then the front door sliding open and back closed. 'Good timing Leigh.' I thought to myself as I slid my lab-coat on.

As I look back at my work station, a mere table with a corpse resting on its surface, I cannot help but to feel over-whelming freedom when I compare it to my earlier labs. Although this place is sorely lacking, Leigh is the first survivor to not discourage my work or place labor pressures on me like those other groups tried. Even more, he is the first person to see the value of my Z-Nectar, all the others were too afraid to even have it stored anywhere near their precious run down shelters.

Walking from my 'lab' at the back of the building, I enter the store front in time to catch Leigh's nonchalant comment. ""Oh, I concur! If I had made those creatures, they would have never been so useless. Honestly, even as a weapon, those simple creatures are sorely lacking. How they managed to over-throw humanity I will continue to fail to understand."" I respond before rushing into the storage room. Grasping a finger I had left in the storage room I approach Leigh with a twinkle in my eyes. ""I am going to need you to eat this."" I state trying to hide my excitement while holding out the finger.</div>"

Recently I have started to formulate ideas as to how to use the zombies as a means to get rid of some of the annoying survivor groups nearby, but actually having the ability to create your own strain of the zombie virus and manipulate it at your own will, I am sure that is the ambition and skill that destroyed humanity in the first place. Although we rely on one another, should she gain the ability to design and manipulate zombies, the scales would slam in her favour.

My train of thought is broken when Valerie shoves a severed finger into my face and makes an absurd demand of me. ""I think I'll pass, that thing could still have active zombie pathogens inside of it."" I respond calmly.</div>"

There has to be something more to this, I absolutely refuse to go back to how things were. ""What of furthering your research?

I reply with crossed arms after throwing the finger away. ""I would have eaten the thing myself, however, I've already taken the vaccine which means the virus wont show signs of infection in me regardless of the serums validity.""

""Incidentally, I am reaching the limits of what I can do with the rusty utensils I've got. We need to go hunting for some more equipment and a power source if I ever hope to move forward with my work."" I state boldly.

Firstly I cannot fault her for her recklessness in regards to her experiments, at least she was up front about it, eventually. My mind starts to wonder back to my previous train of thought involving the nearby survivor group, I agree with Valerie in one regard, we certainly need to move location, with the nearby survivor group expanding their scouting territory it wont be long until they start drawing more zombies to the area. Not to mention the body I left behind, they'll be looking for suspects.

""I know of a location that is ideal for us, but if we plan to take hold of it... there may be some trouble."" I announce to Valerie. Walking into the storage room I kneel down by a box in the corner, it houses some basic office supplies we had found in here. Grasping a piece of paper I roughly sketch the surrounding area from our location to the survivor groups location and then the location in question.

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/oWONgka.png""/></div>

Showing the crude hand-drawn map to Valerie I point to the square labelled '1' at the top of the sheet. ""This is where the nearest survivor group is currently set up."" Sliding my finger over to the block with an exclamation mark on it. ""And this where a college campus that appears to have power is located. I've seen outside path lights on from afar several nights now. Currently the survivors haven't gotten their hands on the campus because it is swarming with zombies as is the shaded block to the left of the area marked 1. If we could clear out the zombies from the campus and wipe out the survivor group, we'd have access to better equipment as well as any resources left over by the survivor group. But pulling this off would require some planning.""</div>"

I think to myself. With my gaze locked onto the poorly drawn map, several thoughts flow through my head. The campus would be the most obvious choice but I hardly think it'd be worth the risk of fighting with an entire group of survivors over. ""It's not exactly subtle, are you sure you want to start picking fights with the local brutes?"" I reply casually. Without my requests I am sure Leigh would settle for a easier, quieter location. 'Could it be because I am close to a proper cure for the zombie virus? Maybe he intends to use me to gain power by trading the cure off.'

I state as I slowly stroll towards the bordered front window once more. My thoughts darken as I recall the memories of my dealings with survivors, ""I was late today. You probably didn't notice, since we don't have any working clocks but everyday when I do my rounds I look to the sky from a particular building and I count how many fingers I can place between the horizon and the sun in the afternoon."" I say as I close one eye and stare at my fingers with my arm stretched before me, mimicking what I do during my rounds.

""It helps me put structure in this chaotic world, and so I planned, I said to myself this morning, ""When the gate to night is only three fingers from open, I'll sneak back and enjoy the scenery"", because you see, there is this street a few blocks down, it's a beautiful street. A street untouched by the chaos outside, there are no corpses, no blood, the cars are parked perfectly and so unscathed that they've built dust on them. It is an untouched relic of the old world, but with the eerie peacefulness of the new world, there are no people marching the side walks, no one exchanging hallow words of little meaning, no one shouting or laughing. It is completely silent."" My voice almost seems emphasised by the light echo of the large front room.

I furrow my brows as I continue, ""But when I reached that street I found it in ruins. Windows smashed, cars looted and even a motionless zombie corpse now filled my street. But worst of all, the subject of all this carnage stood there, <span class=""bb-b"">smoking</span> of all things, on my street. He looked relaxed as he leant against a street lamp. A rush of anger surged through me but I was in control, 'It was inevitable' I had thought. But that's when he spotted me, at first he was alarmed but once he noticed I was alive, he casually called me over, and so I went. I'm not sure why, I think I was still shocked by the scene I had just arrived at, but regardless, I marched towards him just as he had called me."" I pause to breath a deep sigh as the image of the street flashes in my mind.

""Smiling he asked ""Hey stranger, did the sweet scent of tobacco draw you out?"" just as he pushed an open packet of cigarettes my way, beckoning me to take one. Can you believe that? a <span class=""bb-b"">Cigarette!</span> He destroys my street then dares to offer me a fucking cigarette, as if we're acquaintances or pals or something. That's when it happened, it felt so natural as it happened, like it was one quick smooth motion. I had grabbed my knife from my pocket and popped the spring sending the blade arcing out, moments later it opened a hole in his throat as I punched him in the chest as hard as I could to force his last toxic breath from his lungs. As I watched the crimson flow out of his gurgling and shaking body I felt powerful, and in that moment of power I decided that I wasn't going to give into the demands of the survivors any more. But more importantly, I had set myself a goal, my first ambition of the new world; crush the remnants of the old world."" I spoke with emphasis. My heart was racing as I recalled every detail.</div>"

They'll eventually catch on and come for you. Not to mention, that group nearby is an ant compared to the liberation groups that have been appearing and growing since the government fell.""

The screams of hunger and death lust were a soothing replacement to the current top-ten list of shallow songs who's sole message is 'consume, procreate and repeat'.

But despite this out-look, you are only human and so your survival instincts eventually kicked in and they kicked in hard! You found it easy to bludgeon a corpse to re-death and abandon the screams of those grasping for a last chance at life that could never be reached, with your survival instincts also came a sense of acceptance to the world around you, fear wasn't something that grasped you like it did the others, after all you have avoided the sights and gaze of the mindless all your life and now that they were truly mindless, it only became much easier.

It wasn't until <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> appeared that you truly felt fear build within your heart! <span class=""bb-i"">Those</span> hideous, vile monsters that regurgitate their own brand of sick and twisted medicine, feeding it to their young to breed a twisted, mindless <span class=""bb-i"">society</span> of themselves. They came in great numbers, scattered groups of survivors who use faith or law to hold themselves together and abandon anyone who doesn't fit within their parameters of 'lawfulness', 'piety' or 'morally right'. No matter what they called it, you understood the primitive motive of their actions, to breed their own society of zealots who have abandoned their sense of individuality in exchange for a cheap pay-off from their group mentality.

Fighting the dead and each other, these groups could only find common ground in their xenophobic nature towards everything Zombie. This is when it occurred to you, the greatest of all your ideas since the zombie out-break, the moment you stopped thinking of zombies as a dangerous annoyance and starting thinking of them as a resource.</div></div> Filled: Allel

In your youth you were always gifted, thinking in a frame of mind that your peers or the mentors of your peers could not comprehend, they stared at you as if something were wrong with you, as if by your very nature you are flawed. But you would come to show them, you would come to earn the title; young genius and be placed on a pedestal as the shining beacon of medical science, at a young age you had perfected cloning and laid the foundation for perfected gene manipulation, you even started planning a rough draft for a machine that could achieve immortality, that could change your every physical feature in real time, a machine that could make the old young again and the weak strong but then <span class=""bb-i"">they</span> entered your life.

As a prodigy you were encouraged to study abroad in a boarding school that the royal academy of science deemed to house your only true peers, however, all you found were spoiled children from wealthy families who were manipulated into science under the vain of a false destiny to suddenly end world hunger or cure cancer. Two goals that were destine to be yours had the academies strict policies not forbid you from conducting human experiments, even several of the experiments you had submitted for approval involving lab animals seemed too controversial for the academy, who sought only to look after their spoiled scientists and their own neck.

For years the place you had come to earn with your amazing intellect, was nothing more than a prison of prestige, your ideas, your experiments and your curiosity were forced to lay dormant as you twiddled away at minor experiments in an attempt to approach your Pandora in such a way that the academy could not restrict you. As you tried desperately to realise your goals, time and time again you'd only be left with tiny steps of progress that submit next to nothing to your ultimate ideas.

Even worse, your experiments were often considered a waste of time, un-tasteful or sometimes, even out right laughed at and so, eventually you stopped showing them. In the darkness of your room you housed your experiments, some where of mice, completely devoid of any cognitive ability and yet their bodies grew pregnant and gave birth without any interference, like an automated machine that turned unrefined paste and water it was fed through tubes into living, breathing life. In another tank, snake and mouse alike feasted on the defrosted pink flesh of their dinner, seeing each other only as peers as they feast hungrily on their prey. Each labelled box, jar and enclosure served as proof of your mastery over each and every aspect of biology and yet they were all specks of dust in comparison to the true potential you knew was waiting within you to be shed on the world.

For years this thought consumed you, the thought that your perfection, your Pandora was so close and yet so far away and eventually, it drove you mad. Soon your thoughts were fixated on biological manipulation and it wasn't long before your... <span class=""bb-i"">secret side experiment</span> that you had been working on was found out in the worse way possible for the academy.

A press conference had been arranged at your request to reveal to the world your next, super discovery. Only very few people came, most of whom had heard of your 'wacky' nature from other, more well spoken scientific figures and were hoping to cash in on a 'Where are they now?' type article based around the science prodigy becoming an incompetent lack lustre scientist. Instead what they were treated to was far worse, at the conference you pushed out a wheelchair bearing a humanoid figure, limp and covered in bandages. With a smile so large it garnered odd looks from those attending the conference, you explained that this most recent experiment was merely a step, nay, a leap into the future that you had planned for humanity.

Like a child unwrapping a present you tore at the bandages of your experiment to reveal a drooling, decaying mound of flesh resembling a human. Despite appearing as a corpse the... thing, seemed able to move somewhat freely. As the thing moved in its chair, appearing completely unaware of it's surroundings and lacking any precise motor control you took proud strides to the podium and announced the first in your experiments designed at constructing organic tools. Your last words because the police and ambulance arrived hinted at these experiments being a means to an end.

What followed was a public spanking and shaming of the academy of science, a sentencing to a mental hospital and several leaked autopsy reports revealing in horrific detail the mechanics and pieces of the what came to be dubbed the worlds first zombie.

Two years of nothing but straight jackets and white walls send you further into madness until finally, a new colour appeared. Red, red covered the walls, the furniture, the staff and others at the hospital and in the chaos you found your escape, but more importantly, you found them. The successors to your Organic Slave project, you were torn with feelings of pride and anger, to see your work put to such effective use almost bought a tear to you eye, however, it was clear that the intended use of this new form of Organic Slave served only as a weapon, such a barbaric waste of your genius you thought. But it was not too late to continue your work...</div></div> Filled: Ankhone

You are about to enter a world of Zombies, treated somewhat differently to the traditional style of Zombie Survival stories. In RTS Zombie your goal is to build an empire and your materials are the living dead, featuring a dice roll mechanic for NPC's, band together with other NPC survivors and send them out to help scavenge items that'll lay the foundation of your empire and roll to see how well they do.

The goal of RTS Zombie is simple, as time flows the other survivor groups will fluctuate between strength, resources and holding, some may form alliances while others may be crushed entirely with-out your interaction, but their ambition is clear. They want to destroy or cure the zombie plague and unite the land under their chosen banner and as mindless whelps, the zombies don't stand a chance, that is until our dynamic duo comes along. Using cunning, manipulation and zombies, work together to design, breed and strength your own kinds of zombies and lead attacks against the human survivor groups.

There are many different arcs that can be explored including origins to the current zombies, investigation into the dark origins of several major enemy groups. Campaigns to take hold of certain facilities that'll allow for the creation of different kinds of zombies and even arcs that explore the boundaries of zombie and human.

I'll expand a lil' on the dice mechanic! It's a simple one done through PM. When a new survivor is recruited, most tasks that you request them to do or that you do to them that have one of two or three definite results, can be resolved through a die roll! Say you've just recruited Rick the Brick! Now Rick wants to bash some heads in, so you send him off to bring back some corpses, now depending on the task and the survivor you do one of three different types of rolls!

D12 (Default Roll) - Do this roll if the task is pretty simple for your character. In the case of Rick the Brick, it'd be a D12 roll! - If you get 2-4 then you fail and come home empty handed but relatively undamaged. 5-10 is a moderate success, you've done what's been asked, time to relax. 11-12 great success! You rock so hard you smashed a few extra Z on your way making the surroundings a little safer, or maybe you got double what you were asked to grab! If you roll a 1 on the D12, the character is never heard from again. Whether they died, fled, where kidnapped or switched teams, it's unclear but who cares?

D4 (Odds n' Evens) - If the task presents no risk what so ever, you might as well flip a coin. Odds and they fail the job, their undamaged but need a bit of a rest. Evens the job is done and we can all move on.

With one last look he disappeared in a speed that was impossible. I glanced around telling myself I was trying to find him but, really I was looking for a chance to escape even though I was unable to move.

""Are you afraid?"" his cold and sinister voice whispered through the darkness of the shadows surrounding me. Unable to find my voice I nodded at his question but, there was doubt in my mind. Was I actually afraid of him? A part of me was terrified of the monster he was but, the other part didn't care I was in love with him, so what did it matter if he wasn't human.

After a few minutes he slowly emerged from the shadows, I felt the numbness leave when I saw him. Still, I could faintly see the monster that lurked beneath the surface begging to show itself but, as if it was locked in place it stayed as he approched me. ""You don't have to be, I promise I would never hurt you."" he spoke while brushing his finger tips along my cheek before his hand flad on the right side of my face as he pulled me into him

The woman seemed to have only a passing interest in the girl as the car zipped along. She eyed her once or twice, a frown flashing across her perfect brow.
<font color=""#ed145b"">""Foolish,""</font> she said to herself, taking a mirror from her purse and seemingly checking her appearance. <font color=""#ed145b"">""I will be interested to see when he comes for you how this will play out.""</font>
This seemed to be addressed partly at the girl and partly at the mirror. The woman gave no comforting words, nor was she threatening. She meerly sat there, like it was normal to snatch someone and take them away.

The woman's eyes were purple, which wasn't the colour for a normal set of eyes. They bore through her.

There were several figures within, but the only ones not in shadow was the butler and the woman she'd seen in the car.<br/>""Better,"" the woman said as she looked at her, ""but still I don't see it.""<br/>The maid gave a short bow and then backed form the room.<br/>""Goodness, don't stand there like a peasant,"" the woman said.

With my heart beating erratically in my chest a small gasp escaped my lips as he stepped out of the shadows. He wasn't the boy I'd come to love anymore, he was something else entirely that sent chills up and down my spine. I coild see the hunger that threatened to consumed him as he struggled for control. With one last look he disappeared in a speed that was impossible. I glanced around telling myself I was trying to find him but, really I was looking for a chance to escape even though I was unable to move.

""Are you afraid?"" his cold and sinister voice whispered through the darkness of the shadows surrounding me. Unable to find my voice I nodded at his question but, there was doubt in my mind. Was I actually afraid of him? A part of me was terrified of the monster he was but, the other part didn't care I was in love with him, so what did it matter if he wasn't human.

After a few minutes he slowly emerged from the shadows, I felt the numbness leave when I saw him. Still, I could faintly see the monster that lurked beneath the surface begging to show itself but, as if it was locked in place it stayed as he approched me. ""You don't have to be, I promise I would never hurt you."" he spoke while brushing his finger tips along my cheek before his hand flad on the right side of my face as he pulled me into him

""Promise?""

""Promise.""

Name: Dylan
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Species: Mudkip
Level: 1
Appearance:  <img src=""http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs40/f/2009/021/6/5/Mudkip__Mud_Fish_PKMN_by_Xous54.png""/>

Personality: Dylan tends to be wise for his age, due to the world wide web, as well as some stress. He also puts others before himself mostly, however, he leans on those he trusts or absolutely needs help from. He tends to keep his true feelings and issues to himself, not wanting to bother others with his problems. Dylan enjoys to play games and has a competitive side to him when he plays. He makes friends fairly quickly (if they seem nice to him, that is), and once he considers someone a friend, he'll hold on to that title for as long as he can.

Bio: Once being human, Dylan grew up in a suburban community, and lived a relatively normal life. However, being young and foolish, he tended to procrastinate various things (or at least try). Homework, chores, family obligations; almost anything was fair game to pushing back. His grades and motivation quickly decreased, and was frequently scolded. He valued his time with friends above all else. What he lost in procrastination, he made up for with general care for his friends He often was afraid that he'd lose his friends, so he tried to make them happy whenever possible. However, when one of his small group of friends had to move away, the group started to fall apart. Dylan slowly grew depressed, and with nothing better to do, stopped procrastinating. He worked with little emotion or enthusiasm. Only when he found a new group of friends did he become happy again. He continued to do his work (though still tried to get out of it here and there) and found a balance in his life. Currently he has no memory of his human life, only knowing his name, and knowledge of Pokémon.

Even though she doesn't know why, she will be easily offended if you call her ""boyish"" or a ""tomboy,"" omitting to her human troubles. She may be tempted to rush into things, however she sometimes has a troubled side that shows through. She has rapid mood swings at times, swinging between highs and lows. She's very emotional, as hard headed as she may seem, and would do anything for a friend.
Bio: A human turned absol, Jackie is an old transgender artist and musician in training. Her human form was male, becoming trans female, starting to feel awful about herself. She used to be bullied about being trans, and she took the abuse harshly. she used to live in a suburban town, a relatively quiet place. School for her was half torture and half bliss, due to her favorited art and band teacher. She had few friends, but they were close to her, and she put a lot of effort into keeping them, as she was terrified of losing them. Often her homework would be neglected, despite of her above average intelligence, and she ended up struggling a ton during school for her lack of enthusiasm. But through these troubles, she felt happiness in her art, music, and friends, the diamond in the dust of her day.

<img src=""http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/269/6/e/dratini_by_faren916-d4az59o.png""/>

Personality: Candy is a highly intelligent girl, who loves pokemon more than anything. She adores dragon type pokemon and one day, wants to be a Pokemon Master. She is very passionate about pokemon, and her definition of Pokemon Master isn't one who collects them all, it is one who befriends them all, learns everything about them, travel with them, cook for them, and much more. She has been complimented multiple times for her knowledge at such a young age. 

Bio: Candy has been studying pokemon ever since she was only two years old, observing them, watching them, and studying them. Learning everything she could, what food they like, their biology, her face was constantly in the book, reading everything she could, most of her books she read were by a famous pokemon breeder, Brock. She came to admire Brock for his knowledge, and was determined to best him. Once she hit ten years old, she claimed her first pokemon, but, unlike many others, she refused to take anything other than a dragon type. She went out on her own, unafraid, and befriended a dratini, feeding the dratini with it's favorite food, and quickly bonded with it. The professor saw just how amazing she was, and allowed her to have the Dratini as her starter. She hates pokeballs, she believes pokemon should never be trapped in a pokeball, the only exception, is when they physically cannot move on land and the pokemon is willing, and even then, she didn't like it. She felt like she was punishing her pokemon. Candy took nothing other than dragon types. She befriended all her pokemon and had them follow her instead of forcing them by capturing them. She understood why people captured and kept pokemon in pokeballs, but, her dream is to one day have all the pokemon free from their imprisonment.

Personality: Inferno is a gentle and kind person. He wouldn't harm a fly. He doesn't like to fight, and will only fight when he has no choice, and even then, he hesitates, because he see's fighting as a sin.

He often forgets people's names and calls them something completely different, taking multiple times to actually remember even the simplest of names.

Bio: Inferno can't remember his real name, as he has forgotten it, so, he has renamed himself. Just like a cyndaquil, he was blind in his past life, unable to see. He was used to it, but, he always wished that one day, he could see the world for what it really was. Sadly, he came to a realization, that, the dream would never come. It was only a fantasy.

Sorry for large image! ^^'
 
Personality: He is a very shy Pokemon. It takes him a long time to trust someone, but when he does, he's a loyal friend. He has an extremely low self=esteem, and he thinks everyone else is better than him. He is childishly fearful when left alone (by Peirce, another character I'm going to make soon).

Bio: Crux suffers from social anxiety, and tends to stay in places where other Pokemon aren't common. If he is to go in a populated area, he stays very close to Peirce. If another Pokemon comes near him, he tends to go somewhere else. If someone is to approach him, however, he kindly waits for them to state their business whilst trying to not have an anxiety attack.

He often speaks to the spirits of the dead about his problems and past lives. He never removes his skull, unless he is mourning for the dead or crying. Kyu, even if he is in a team, he is a very lonely and timid pokemon, not having much relationship with his other team members.

Bio: Kyu is a sweet little cubone, who never really devolped fully, because of this, he still looked like a five year old cubone. His face was the worst. He still had his baby face even though he is a teenager now, because he has always looked like a child, people treated him like a child, and took advantage of him. When he was ten, he was taken advantage of, being manipulated, although he managed to see through the manipulation. As he ran, he was followed. He led them straight to his mother who was killed that day. He had no time to mourn for the dead, he had to run. He soon came to the Cubone Graveyard where he stayed for the night. He blamed himself for his mother's death. It was all his fault, he blamed his disability. He went back to his mother in the morning so he could mourn for the dead. He decided he would never let anyone see his face again, that way, nobody would think or see him as a mere child. He took his mother's skull and bone club and gave it to himself, to remember her by, he then took her corpse to the graveyard and burred her there. It is there where he goes to every year to remember her and mourn for her. It is there where he takes his skull of and cries for her. He never takes his skull off anywhere else. He constantly has nightmares of his mother's death, he has had them ever since that day and still blames himself. He could always see the spirits of the dead when he was younger, and he still could. He spoke to them every so often although he really wasn't interested in this ability until now. He was able to see his mother and talk to her spirit. It made him miss her, but it was that which made him feel protect and safe.

Personality: Chick is rather small, compared to a lot of pokemon, which is why he normally stands back and supports his team members. He gives out smart and tactical plans from the back. Although, he knows, as soon as he evolves, he will be on the front lines. He is just waiting to take the stage.

Bio: Chick has never liked who he was, why did he have to be so small? He wished he could just evolve right away, but, sadly he couldn't. He found it hard to defeat his opponents in his current form, and so, he joined a guild, in hopes that they would do all the work for him, as he gave them insight on what to do.

<img src=""http://i59.tinypic.com/96dxjb.jpg""/>

Personality: Red is a very serious person, who will always take things one step at a time, he will never rush things, as he believes, that if you rush things, you will make a mistake that you will regret for the rest of your life. He would rather take his time and live his life rather than make a terrible mistake he can't undo.

Bio: Red used to be so excitable and inpatient, he wanted to follow his parents example who were both police  and CSI, his mother used to sing to him everyday as he grew up, telling him one important rule repeatedly, but he never listened to her. She sang,

""Take your time, don't rush, or you will make a mistake that you'll regret. Take your time, take it, one step at a time. Oh, just take your time. don't rush, or you will make a mistake that you'll regret, listen to me, and just, take your time, trust in my words, I know, it may be hard but just take your time. You have your whole life ahead of you, so don't rush and do something you may regret, just, take your time."" 

One day, Red rushed out, he wanted to impress his parents, he took a gun and chased after a dangerous criminal, when his parents realized, they rushed on out. When they found him, he was being held hostage, they had no choice but to surrender. His mother sang to him one last time.

""Take your time, don't rush, or you will make a mistake that you'll regret. Take your time, take it, one step at a time. Oh, just take your time. don't rush, or you will make a mistake that you'll regret, listen to me, and just, take your time, trust in my words, I know, it may be hard but just take your time. You have your whole life ahead of you, so don't rush and do something you may regret, just, take your time, and remember, to become strong just like us, be brave and confident, be safe, and most importantly, take your time."" 

When she finished, the man shot them both, and thus, released Red. Ever since, he has taken things one step at a time, making sure he never makes a mistake that he will regret.

Personality: Star is very passionate and smart, although, at times, she often blames herself and puts herself down, claiming she isn't good enough, or that she will be a burden. She believes she isn't right for the task, or sometimes feels it is best to just leave her alone. Although, despite the lack of confidence in herself, she is actually rather skilled once she believes in herself.

Bio: Star has never really believed in herself before, she has never stuck to a task and gave up on anything even remotely difficult. She always wanted to break out that habit, but sadly she never could. She tried simple tasks, such as jigsaws, but she found putting all the edge pieces together, then the rest of the jigsaw too slow and annoying.

A normal looking Umbreon. He wears a green scarf around his neck (not in picture).
  
Personality: Peirce is almost the exact opposite of Crux. He's a social butterfly, always making new friends with other Pokemon. He spends most of his time with Crux, but occasionally leaves to chat with other friends or make new ones.

Peirce can sometimes get a bit protective of Crux if a hostile Pokemon approaches them. He doesn't mind if another Pokemon mocks or judges him, but can get quite angry if a Pokemon judges or mocks Crux.

Other than those exceptions, Peirce is an outgoing and kind person. He's quite the hardy Pokemon.

Bio: Peirce has been life-long friends with Crux, and will continue to be friends with Crux forever. When the two first met, Crux had always carried a dirty green scarf he had found lying under a tree. When Peirce became Crux's first and only friend, Crux gave it to him, and he wears it at all times.

As much as Peirce loves to socialize, and would much rather be in a highly populated area, he stays with Crux. They occasionally go together to populated area, and Crux usually stays close to Peirce to avoid any other social interaction.

Name: Mystic
Gender: Female
Age: 45

Level: 60
Appearance:
<img src=""http://i59.tinypic.com/oa6hhv.jpg""/>

Personality: Mystic refuses to evolve, she has decided to stay as a Riolu forever, she will never change, no matter what. She is very determined and extremely serious about her training and abilities. So much so, that if anyone ever questions her abilities, she will lose her temper and attack them. She is actually rather kind and helpful, although, she doesn't show that much. She often doesn't show her emotions either now. She questions everyone's reason for everything, even if she knows the answer, she does this to confirm the answer. She has slight abandonment issues, being a little annoyed that she was left all alone, and only being told about it at the last minute, not even having chance to say her goodbye, or anything. 

Bio: Mystic used to be so friendly, so talkative and happy, but it all changed so many years ago, when her best friend returned. She thought she had lost him, she had changed completely, she had become so serious. Nobody recognized her. She kept her promise, she told everyone far and wide of their adventures, she made sure nobody forgot, but, there was one thing she had to do. She traveled far, going to many places, until she reached the hottest desert in the world. There, she searched for one individual, a sandshrew called Sandshock. He told him that she never wanted to be a lucario. She told him, that she wanted him to make it impossible for her, and so, he did. He gave her a special scarf, one that possessed unique abilities. The scarf had the power of an everstone. Whoever wore it, would never evolve. She took it gladly, and wore it every day, never taking it off. Although, a riolu would never match a lucario's strength, and so, he gave her something else. The scarf would increase her abilities, making her able to control her aura better than any riolu ever could. In return, she gave him her word, that if he ever needed her for anything, she would owe him. Many people underestimated her power, but she proved them all wrong. She trained everyday, mastering her aura abilities, and eventually, became as strong as a lucario. It was then, when Steel finally returned. She had changed so much, even he didn't recognized her. Normally, she would of been filled with glee, but no, she just stared at him with a simple nod. A greeting was all she gave. She had lost her emotions, she burred them away. She no longer showed them. Yes, she was happy to see her old friend return, but, she was already used to the feeling of sadness and loneliness. She just didn't care anymore. The two worked together, and went on many adventures, and together, they reached the Guild Master Rank. They decided to finally start a guild of their own, one that would rival Wigglytuff's Guild, one where others could become strong. Mystic enjoyed seeing so many passionate pokemon, they reminded her of herself back when she had something to care about. Now, her job was to make sure they trained, and become as strong as they could, and even surpassing that unbreakable barrier, like she once did.

Personality: Alice is a very modest person for her high intelligence. She always says that she's jealous of everyone for their talents, even though she is extremely smart. Her extra intelligence makes up for her lack of common-sense and street smarts. 

Whenever she isn't doing homework, she likes to do artsy things, like playing the piano and drawing. She is kind of outgoing, but it takes a little bit until she lets a friend see her ""crazy side"", where she fan-girls about metal bands and anime-ships she finds on Tumblr. With relatively new friends and/or acquaintances, she talks about normal things, like current events and such.

Because of recent events, Alice is openly going through depression, but she refuses to take pills for it. 

Bio: Alice grew up with your typical family: Working Dad, stay-at-home Mom, both of them loving. Or so she thought. As she grew up, she realized her mother always had bruises all over her. Her mother claimed it to be normal, and she believed her back then, but now she realizes that her father is abusive. Ever since then, she didn't know if she should stay at home to help her mother or stay at a friend's house to avoid the situation. Every time she brought it up to her mother, the mother would laugh it off and tell her to mind her own business. It seemed hopeless for the family.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Reina is always chipper and friendly, greeting everyone with a smile and teasing remark. Perhaps this is why people are surprised to find that when they think about her… they can never actually remember anything about her life. Her cheerful disposition masks her tendency to hold everyone at arm's length, though she seems fine with others telling <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> their personal details. Reina likes to be in control of situations, and the easiest way to do that is to get as much outside information as she can while holding her own cards close to her chest. The jury's still out on whether she does this because she has trust issues or just values her privacy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Not that she remembers any of this, but Reina grew up in a fairly happy household with her mom, siblings, and grandma. Her dad was in and out of her life because of work, but that wasn't the cause of her issues with him. Life was good except when he was home, and when he was Reina learned to deal. It was during those times that she would find reasons to go outside and explore with her pokemon, only returning when her mom called her, voice thick with worry… and a bit of disapproval.

Name: Brock
Gender: Male 
Age: 15
Species: Croagunk
Level: 1
Appearance:
<img src=""http://i60.tinypic.com/a9p7gn.jpg""/>

Personality: Brock is a Pokémon Breeder and a former Gym Leader of Pewter City, and even a official pokemon doctor. He is a close friend and former traveling companion of Ash, Misty, May, Max and Dawn. He is an experienced cook and caretaker by nature, so he always makes scrumptious food both for Pokémon and for humans. When he was younger, he participated in Little League Baseball, even carrying around a Boulder Badge for identification. He has Contest Passes for the Kanto and Hoenn regions, though only once did he compete in a Pokémon Contest.
One of his best known character traits is that he falls in love with every pretty woman he meets, particularly Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy. He can tell whether they are real or impostors, as well as spot the differences between them. This ""ability"" has been used multiple times. 

Brock is considered the most mature, wise and level-headed of the main characters, and he is arguably the most intelligent character as well. He often acts as an older brother and caretaker to the other characters and a voice of reason in disputes. He will usually place others before him and will help and support his friends even against his better judgment or at his own expense. While he is not shown to battle often, he can understand the situations and strategies in any Pokémon battle, and often explains them to the other characters, probably due to the fact that he was once a Gym Leader. His wisdom is possibly derived from how observant he is; he can tell just by sight how a Pokémon is feeling.

Brock always carries books and maps with him, and thus is usually the character who knows where the group is headed and what they can do when they get there, this role was mostly taken over by Max, who owns a PokéNav. He also carries a lot of other supplies, such as Potions, Pokémon food, and a set of cookware, as well as practical tools like a brush and pocket knife; in The School of Hard Knocks, the extent of his preparedness and comically large capacity of his bag was demonstrated, as he pulled out a table and full tea set out of his backpack. He is a domestic, and grooms not only his Pokémon but also those of his friends with whom he travels. He handles all the cooking and cleaning for his friends.

Despite this, all his maturity and rationality leaves him completely at the sight of a beautiful woman. Brock has a desperate need for female companionship which grows worse as he fails to gain it. He will do anything and everything he thinks will impress women, which inevitably ends with his heart being broken every time. A few women have shown interest in him as well, but most do not notice him or are not interested. No matter how many times he is disappointed though, Brock remains determined to find a girl to start a relationship with, and has indicated several times he would stop traveling with Ash and stay with the girl if this happened. This behavior tends to wear on the nerves of other characters, and Misty and Max have both commonly dragged Brock away from women by his ear. Some of Brock's own Pokémon, most notably Croagunk, have attacked him for getting too flirtatious with women.

His goals have played a passive role in his character's activity and development, and his role has generally been one as support for other main characters, usually contributing more in terms of wisdom and comedic antics than the action of the series. Unlike other characters, who aspire to achieve and excel in competitive fields like Pokémon training and Pokémon Contests, his aim to become a great Pokémon Breeder is a quiet one and thus does not get showcased frequently. This caused him to question if he was actually pursuing his dreams like his friends were and ultimately lead to him deciding to become a Pokémon Doctor instead. His other goal, to find a girlfriend, is similar to Team Rocket's quest to capture Pikachu in that both are for comedy and thus doomed to fail.

Bio: Brock only became the Gym Leader because he felt it was his responsibility, and he admitted to Ash that he would rather care for Pokémon than battle them. It was his dream to become a great Pokémon Breeder, and when Flint, his father took back control of the Gym, Brock was allowed to start following this dream. Most notably, he took care of a Vulpix that belonged to a Breeder named Suzy. Shortly before Vulpix was returned, Brock used it in a Pokémon breeding competition.
Brock was also able to meet and make advances towards the many beautiful women he met. At first, he was more casual about approaching women, such as the Officer Jenny in Cerulean City, and more modest as well, such as when he met Melanie. However, he became more open and passionate towards almost all single young women as time progressed.

Brock briefly left the gang during the Orange Islands to work for Professor Ivy on Valencia Island. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say ""that name"" whenever he is asked about it. He has once mentioned his work for her. After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by Delia Ketchum, who helped him to regain his strength. Brock then became a rival to Mimey until he rejoined Ash and Misty as the three traveled to Johto. They stayed together for the entire region, but at the end of this journey, the three went their separate ways, with Brock's help requested at home by his father.
Upon his return home, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the Gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a brightly decorated Water-type den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock types and won, promising his brother Forrest that he would become Gym Leader someday.
After that, Brock returned to follow Ash through Hoenn, along with their new friends May and Max, and then through Kanto again as Ash took on the Kanto Battle Frontier. He left briefly to visit his home, but quickly returned to travel with Ash and Dawn in Sinnoh. Brock began to show interest in becoming a Pokémon Doctor, and so, rather than following Ash to Unova to advise him, decided to remain in Kanto to study.

While waiting to attend a Pokémon medical school, he has been studying hard at home as well as helping out at the Pewter City Pokémon Center. He played a major role in helping Forrest to officially become the Pewter City Gym Leader.

Brock after Pokémon medical school and had been sent to Johto to apprentice under a Pokémon Doctor as part of his training. While passing through the town he bumped into Pokémon Connoisseur Cilan briefly, then encountered him again when Cilan took his Pansage to be treated at the town's Pokémon Center after it was injured by a Gyarados. While waiting for it to recover, the two encountered the beginning Trainer Ayumi who was having trouble teaching her Pikachu to use Thunderbolt; Brock was very impressed with Cilan's talents as Cilan helped Pikachu master the move. Later, when the Gyarados that Cilan encountered earlier started to rampage due to being injured by the poacher Amer, Brock spotted that it was injured, so after Pansage's Grass Whistle put it to sleep, Brock was able to quickly treat it. Afterwards, the two said goodbye to each other and continued their separate travels, having never learned their names or that Ash was a mutual friend of theirs.

Personality: Jade is cheerful to everyone around her. She tends to be the bright spot in many a person's day. She can't keep things secretive very well. If she were to play poker, she'd be out in three strikes. She can think on the spot if need be, and be very clever, but often her head seems to be in the clouds. Jade tends to look on the bright side of people. She doesn't recognize malicious intent for what it is, and is very gullible. She believes everyone is good deep down, despite what others might say or do.

Bio: Jade grew up in a family that gave her lots of attention and love. However, they often sheltered her from the world a little too much, and she didn't have much street sense. Due to this, she was kidnapped on her way back from elementary school one day. Thankfully, the police found her fairly quickly. Jade herself didn't really understand what the big deal about it was, as the man who tried to kidnap her seemed nice enough to her. However, her parents only became shelter-frenzied. Jade had to text her parents every hour she was away from the house with a photo of herself as proof she was alright. They even implemented a GPS tracking device on her (unknown to Jade). Her friends were under scrutiny from her parents, and as such, she didn't have many friends. However, she was still very cheerful and oblivious.

It's been strange lately, pokemon are losing their memories, and some pokemon are disappearing. The world is growing increasingly smaller, and with no idea on what's happening, pokemon are losing hope. They are growing bitter and hostile. They have nobody to turn to, nobody knows what's going on, not even the legendaries. More and more natural disasters are occurring everyday. Is it finally time to call forth the humans once more like so many years ago? We only hope they can save us, one last time.

Christoph looked outside with a sigh, he didn't have to see to know rain was hitting hard outside. He stood up and grabbed his blind stick, then began to use it to guide himself to the kitchen. He opened the fridge and began to feel the contents, once he found the milk, he opened the cupboard and grabbed a cup. He poured himself a drink and gulped down the milk. Once he was finished, he placed the cup down. Although, all of a sudden, he began to lose his sense of touch, he felt like the milk was slipping when his fingers, then he felt the same thing with his walking stick. He had no idea what was going on, if only he could see. Suddenly, the milk bottle and walking stick smashed to the ground, and Christoph disappeared, faded out of existence. It only took a few minutes, but he soon reawoke. He couldn't see, and his walking stick was gone. He looked around, wondering where the hell he was, then, he heard whispers, faint, tiny whispers. He listened closely, trying to hear what they said.

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

Most of it was inaudible, but what little he could be made out made very little sense. Suddenly, he felt strange, like something was emitting from him, Then, before he knew it, he felt himself changing, his body shrinking and changing all at once, all he could do was scream, then simply pass out. It was a few moments later when he woke up, feeling a rushing of air, like.......like....as if he was falling, he wiggled his arms around and screamed and soon enough, he landed with a large thud. He shook his head and sighed.

""Ow, ow ow. My head......Where am I, no, who am I? What the hell just happened? Have I got amnesia?""

He slowly got up and began to feel around, but, everything felt different now, he could tell, that he was in some sort of field, with many, many flowers. He sniffed up softly, and all of a sudden, a overwhelming amount of scents began to fill his nose. He sighed, where the hell was he? Why did he feel so strange?

Lucy was lounged on the chair, watching tv, wasting away little by little. She yawned softly and placed the tv remote down. She then closed her eyes. She was so bored. She yawned softly, relaxing herself, and even began to fall asleep, when suddenly, she felt herself slipping from the chair, as if, falling through it. She opened her eyes, and looked down, to see her legs starting to become completely see through, she then looked at her hands, she was fading away!

""What the unholy fuck is going on? Am I high?""

Of course, that was a rhetorical question. She looked around, and began to breath heavily as she slowly disappeared. There was a moment of nothingness, she was non existent, gone, then, she regained her consciousness. She found herself in a pure white space, no ceiling, no rooms, no buildings, no nothing. Just, whiteness. Then, she heard whispers. 

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

She looked around, wondering who was speaking, it was then when orange aura began to emit from her, making her hair stand up on end. She breathed heavily once more, then, the aura stopped. She thought it was over, until her body began changing, she screamed in pain, and once again, fell unconscious, until a few minutes, where she found herself falling from an incredible height. She screamed loudly, and covered her face with her paws, and soon smashed in the sand. She slowly got up, coughing. She couldn't remember anything.

""What happened just now? How the hell did I end up here?""

It was then when a large black jaw came circling around her and snickered. It spoke in a sinister tone.

""Hello......""

With that she screamed at the top of her voice as she fell down on her ass in fright. When she was done, she took a deep breath, and slowly got back up.

""What the hell are you?!""

The large black jaw snickered once more.

""Why, I'm apart of you, haven't you taken a look at yourself yet?""

She looked to the water, and hesitantly walked up to it, after a quick peek, she fainted to the floor, laying down on the soft sand. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Thunder</span>

Tyler was currently humiliating himself, everyone was laughing at him. He gave a soft smile as he looked around, he could feel the many worms wiggle in his pants. He was used to the strange feeling by now. He shivered a little and sighed. One of the people walked over and pushed him to the ground as he laughed. Tyler sighed, and shook his head softly. He enjoyed making others laughed, but, it was a hard life. He slowly stood on his feet and brushed himself off, as he did, he noticed his hands were starting to go see through. He stared at them for a minute then rubbed his eyes, he looked at his hands again, and just stared in confusion. 

""What......?""

It didn't take long until he had vanished, disappeared from the world, and in the mysterious white nothingness. He looked around, and listened to the odd whispers, still very confused.

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

Something odd was happening, a yellow aura began to emit from him, spiking up his hair and everything. He looked at his hands and smiled, this was actually pretty cool, was he dreaming? Suddenly, the aura stopped, then the surge of pain hit him. He screamed loudly, and everything went black from there. The next thing he knew, he was falling to the ground. He screamed once more, surprised and scared at the same time, and hit the floor with a thud. He sighed, rubbing his head.

""What the hell is going on? Where am I? I thought I was......somewhere. I can't remember. I wasn't here.""

He looked around, seeing an area he couldn't even recognize. He didn't remember anything, he had no idea what was going on. He stood up and looked around, he felt strange, he felt things he had never felt before, he felt, different. He looked at himself, and screamed when he saw nothing but a pichu. He fell back on his ass, he rubbed his eyes and looked at himself again.

""No way, I'm a pichu? How? Oh fuck it, I don't care. This is so cool!""

He smiled, and stood back up, looking to his tail, then back to his hands. He still had no idea whatsoever where he was, or what was happening, but, so far, he was ok with it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Yin</span>

Horu was meditating, he was in a complete, relaxed state. There was not a single sound that could disturb him, he had blocked it all out. He hummed quietly as he meditated. He liked meditating, it kept him calm, it kept him at peace. Although, he suddenly felt strange, something was off, he opened his eyes, and as he did, he found himself to be in white nothingness. He looked around, hearing a voice from somewhere.

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

He looked around, confused as ever, then, purple aura began to emit from him, he looked at his hands for a moment, until he felt the surge of pain afterwards, falling to the ground weakly as he screamed, and shortly passing out. He woke up, finding himself near a pond of some sort. He rubbed his eyes and looked around.

""Where, am I? What happened? I can't remember anything.""

He slowly walked over to the pond and began to splash his face with water, but he quickly fell back as he saw a abra. He shook his head and took a deep breath.

""I.......I........I'm a......abra? Why? Why am I questioning it? It should be plain as day, but, I am so, surprised. I..........I need to meditate on this matter.""

He rubbed his head softly, as he sat down on the sand near the pond, he crossed his legs, and closed his eyes, he began to meditate, as he did, a darkened aura formed around him, more like a purple psychic barrier of some sorts, but he didn't even seem to notice. It was then, that he began to levitate off the sand. As he did, the tide became more wild, the sand began to swirl around and blow everywhere, the psychic energy was making a lot of mess, and even noise as the abra hummed softly.

<span class=""bb-b"">Candy</span>

It was evening that day, nothing much was going on, it was just another day as usual. Strong winds and rain, a storm had hit recently, is was huge, it wouldn't be going for at least a few days. Candy stood on up after finishing her 18'000 piece jigsaw.  

<a href=""http://www.milsims.com.au/sites/milsims.com.au/files/imagecache/product_full/prodimg/heavenly_sunset_puzzle_18000_pce-382231370653294d.jpg"">http://www.milsims.com.au/sites/milsims.com.au/files/imagecache/product_full/prodimg/heavenly_sunset_puzzle_18000_pce-382231370653294d.jpg</a>

It only took her a day and a half to complete. She stretched herself out and yawned loudly. She then cracked her fingers. There was no school today, so, she had time to challenge the gym and finally earn that badge. She walked outside with her coat on and looked up to the black clouds, she then whistled loudly. Suddenly, a large dragonite came landing down.

""Draco, take me to the gym.""

With that she and a few of her pokemon got on him, then the dragonite flew off. It only took a few minutes to get there. Once they were there. There all rushed in to the gym, and immediately went to the battle arena. She stepped forward to face the gym leader.

""Today, I challenge not the gym leader, but, Brock. I will not fight anyone else.""

Forrest nodded, and immediately called Brock to the arena. She simply waited for him to arrive, as her pokemon got ready, drying themselves off and waiting.</div>"

She was very well aware that it was Midnight, but she didn't give a bother. She walked over to the kitchen and opened a cupboard to get some Coco Puffs. She poured a reasonable amount for herself, which meant the bowl was over-flowing.

She put the box down and went to grab the bag of milk in the fridge. She grabbed it, but realized there was only a drop left. ""Bloody fuck!"" she exclaimed, but covered her mouth quickly because she realized her parents were asleep.

Suddenly, she started fading away. She started panicked and grunting scarily, since she really didn't know what to say. Then she became nothingness, and the bag of milk fell to the floor, the contents sloshing to and fro. She was suddenly in a completely white room, and a mysterious voice said the following:

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aur""

She had no idea what that meant, but she didn't have time to analyze what it meant before she blacked out.

She was now in the sky, falling to her imminent doom. She screamed as if it would help her. It was when she hit the ground when she realized that she wasn't going to die, although it did hurt a whole lot.

She groaned and tried to stand up on her back legs, but fell over. She got on all fours with extreme confusion, realizing she was a lot shorter then before. ""Hello...?"" she called out, hoping that someone would respond.

-

""Oh come oooooonnnn, can I please just explore the area for a bit? I've never been here before!"" Peirce exlaimed to Crux. ""You don't have to come with me if you don't want.""

""But... I do want to..."" Crux replied quietly. ""I... I guess I'll go with you..."" Crux didn't want to go around following Peirce at all because he always tries to talk to others, but he always goes anyways because he's scared to be left alone. ""Sweet!"" Peirce replied to Crux. ""Who knows? Maybe you'll make a new friend!"" he said happily to the Absol. ""Yeah, maybe..."" Crux replied, although he didn't seem too enthusiastic about it.</div>"

As long as you have good company, it can be even better. At least, that's what Dylan was thinking. In a old-fashioned movie theatre, he was watching one of <span class=""bb-i"">those</span> movies with some of his friends. Needless to say, the movie was horrendous. That only fueled his group's witty comments and laughter. It was an amazing time for him, but his joy came to an end when he got a text from his mom. She demanded he come home right away to watch over his younger cousin (whom she promised she would take care of) while she went out with some friends on the town. 

He explained the situation to his friends in whispers. They shuffled out of his way as he scooted out of the aisle, quick goodbyes and apologies exchanged. As he made his way out of the theatre, he started to notice a headache coming on. He eventually reached his old run down car, and got in, his head throbbing. He started to regret the copious amounts of sugar he ingested. Dylan inserted the keys into ignition, but being the rust-bucket it was, it wouldn't start. Despite his muttered curses and pleas, it didn't work a second time either.

""Well, third time's the charm, as they say"".

He reached down to start the keys once more, he noticed something weird. Actually, very weird. His hand was missing. The keys just floated there in the air. He could even <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span> the keys, despite the apparent lack of something to feel with. 

""The fuck...?""

Dylan couldn't add to his shocked reaction, as he had already disappeared completely, while the keys clattered to the ground. He opened his eyes to a white expanse of... something. His head pounded even more, as if he were hosting an all-night party in there or something. Whispers started up, and the pain seemed to leave his head for a bit as he listened.

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

But all to quickly, the voices faded, and his headache returned with a renewed vengeance. The bluish aura around him didn't help his cause in any case. He seemed to be... changing, for a lack of better words. However, he couldn't care less about that, as some physical pain was added to his increasing mental pain. Eventually, his brain turned off as his world went black.

When he woke up, some pain lingered in his brain, the party inside coming to a close. He didn't recognize his surroundings. Flowers abundantly bloomed around him, and he had to admit; they looked beautiful. He turned his attention to himself as he continued to lay on the ground, reaching out a hand... a paw into his sight. It looked oddly familiar, yet alien. It almost looked like...

""...A mudkip? That's what I am?""

Dylan felt odd, questioning himself like this. Of course it was his body. How else would he be seeing what he was? Never mind that, but why think of his paw as a 'hand' in the first place? Why was he in this field of flowers at all? Who <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> he? These questions pelted his brain, and it responded with a heavy wave of pain. 

""Oh fuck that hurts. Ahg..."" 

He tried to get up and walk the pain off, but he fell over. He seemed to have amnesia, but that couldn't explain his last question he had. Why did this body feel so foreign? That question seemed to push his headache over the edge. He closed his eyes in pain, and curled up, trying his best to make it go away.</div>"

Araisao had disappeared from reality, now, he was non existent. He was about to help a young girl, when he ended up in the white space of nothingness. He looked around, hearing that voice,

""Pok............world...................danger.................help..........us.................sa.....iours..............aura...........read..""

He looked around, wondering what was happening, when suddenly, aura shot out of him, the next thing he knew, a surge of pain shot right through him, he screamed, and fell unconscious. When he awoke, he found himself to be in some sort of safari. He rubbed his head with a sigh, wondering where he was.

""Man, where am I?""

He looked around, and then looked at his paws, he, was an eevee? He stared at his paw in confusion, then, looked on up, taking another look around. He was so confused right now.

<span class=""bb-b"">Red</span>

Red was already in the non existent room, his aura was pumping out of him, a fiery red. He passed out from the pain. He ended waking up as he fell, screaming loudly until he hit the sandy desert. He slowly got himself up and shook his head, then looked around. There was nothing but sand, going on for miles and miles.

""Where am I, how did I end up here?""

He looked around then sat on his ass, he wasn't even sure where to go.

<span class=""bb-b"">Star</span>

Star had been asleep the whole time, she only woke up when she began changing, and only for a brief moment, as the pure shock made her faint. It was after she landed in the large jungle where she awoke. She stood up and shook her head, having no memory of before. She had no idea where she was or what she was even doing there.

""Hello?""

She shouted out loudly, hoping she would get a response, sadly, none. She sighed, and looked around. She wished she knew what to do, or had a small chunk of her memory, so she could at least know where she was headed to.

<span class=""bb-b"">Slade</span>

Slade listened to the mysterious voice, and then suddenly, aura began to shot out of him, it turned out to be a blue aura. It was then that his body changed, and he fell unconscious. He woke up as he was falling, and quickly screamed, as he fell, he grabbed hold of the a ledge, pulling himself up. He sighed, and sat on the floor, breathing heavily.

""Wow, what the hell. What's going on?""

He slowly stood up, and took in his surroundings. He then saw a small hole, leading into the cliff, he looked around, then walked inside.

<img src=""http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/d/df/Sharpedo_Bluff.png/225px-Sharpedo_Bluff.png""/>

After a quick look around, he saw a letter, he slowly picked it up and read it.

'Guild moved to Moonlit Village

Hope to see you there.

Mystic and Tyson, the Mystic Dojo'

""Where, am I? What's happening?""

He placed the letter down and then walked out once more, looking around. He felt different, his body didn't feel normal, he knew he was a riolu, but, there was something more than that, what was going on?

<span class=""bb-b"">Magnem</span>

Magnem had passed out when his body changed, and didn't awake until the sounds of rushing water hit his ears. He moaned, and slowly floated back up, he then looked around. He had never been here before, what happened to him? He couldn't remember anything. 

""Anyone here, Buzz, Hello?, Buzz.""

He listened to his voice, and, it felt different somehow. He took a look in the waterfall, to see he was a magnemite.

""No way! Buzz, I'm a magnemite, buzzzzz. How? Buzz,""

He looked around, then slowly floated back, this was so, strange. He didn't understand, what happened? What did he miss?</div>"

Her body was smoke and mist, without form as she was blown this way and that by an unhurried breeze. Or perhaps it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> hurried. There was some form of urgency poking at the back of Reina's mind. She was needed for… something. Or maybe she was just in the way. She could never tell.

As flighty as her dream was, Reina's journey to the world of the waking was a solid, measurable thing. It began with her hearing. Sounds were too sharp, too loud. Scent was the same – things she shouldn't have been aware of came trickling into her mind. She could hear every time a nearby stream tripped over a rock or around the bend, and smell the scents it threw into the air, dredged up from the churning soil. When she finally managed to open her eyes, the world was all colors and light, too many rainbows arcing across the sky.

It was then that she began taking stock of herself. Her limbs were too short, her body too round, the world around her too <span class=""bb-i"">big.</span>Instead of a soft cotton shirt and a pair of denim jeans, she wore a broken egg shell that was… actually pretty comfortable. All she could say in a voice far too… squeaky was:

Grace was walking around in her sky form, looking at all the beautiful gracidea flowers, it was then, that she notice somebody fall from the sky, she rushed over to him and saw him curled up. She took a deep breath and then sighed, relaxing herself. She slowly placed her hand on him, and closed her eyes. 

""Don't worry, I can help you.""

Then, her paw began to glow, and the pain of his headache would disappear. She slowly removed her paw with a soft smile, then looked around for a moment, who was he? How did he get here? Questions were flying through her head.

""Are you ok? What is your name?""

She stepped back for a moment, giving him some space.

<span class=""bb-b"">Wish</span>

Wish was currently taking a drink when suddenly, she heard somebody, she lifted her head up for a moment, then turned around. She wondered who it could be, she hadn't had a visit for many years now. She flew quickly to where the sound came from, only to see a Fennekin. She stared at her for a moment, then, gave a soft smile.

""Hello, I, am Wish, the legendary Jirachi, and, who would you be?""

She smiled often, keeping to the usual greeting she always did, but, this person, there was something different about her, she couldn't tell what, but something was unusual. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Blue</span>

Blue heard somebody in his forest, it wasn't unusual, but, the two that were talking, they were different from the other pokemon in the forest. For one, it wasn't often pokemon such as they came to the forest, he assumed they were travellers. He floated down, listening to the conversation a little, then he thought for a moment. He wondered if he should show himself, he could immediately tell they were no threat to him, and he had no reason to, but, some reason, he felt like he had to. He nodded to himself, and quickly flew down.

""Hello, you two. My name's Blue, and I'm a mew, that much is true. So, who are you? Can you give me a clue?""

 He tilted his head softly, not even realizing he spoke in rhymes.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tear and Cyan</span>

Tear was currently flying around the large valley, while Cyan was maintaining the area, making sure no bad pokemon wondered up here, when suddenly, the two noticed a pokemon fall from the skies. They flew quickly, but they were too late. Tear flew over to her as she woke up, and lowered herself to her level.

""Hello, are you ok, my name is Tear, can you tell me what happened?""

Cyan then came up after her, staying close beside her as he looked at the little thing.

""How did you fall from the sky, no, a better question would be, how did you even get that high into the sky? Just who are you?""

Cyan was a lot more protective than Tear, he didn't care if she was confused or injured. He demanded answers. After all, it wasn't everyday a togepi came out the sky.</div>"

Sai was sitting in class, daydreaming as usual, then the teacher announced there would be a pop quiz, hearing this, Sai sighed, muttering to himself, 'Awe man, a quiz, that's so lame' as the teacher passed out the tests and handed one to Sai, he simply put his head down on the test about to take a nap. Suddenly, Sai woke up screaming as he was falling to the ground, with being so high up and falling so fast, Sai was struggling to breath and soon passed out. The next thing he knew, he was underwater, he was shocked at first but then became more confused when he realized he wasn't drowning or choking, in fact he could breath easily. Suddenly he screamed in pain, clenching his head, he now had a splitting headache. He tried to endure the pain as best as he could as he started to swim to the surface and looked around, as he did, he saw his hands, this made him more confused, his arms were yellow and his hands were webbed. Unsure of what was going on, he decided first thing he should do was get to dry land so he could try and figure out what was going on. He continued to swim to the surface and once he got there, he looked around. Sai noticed a beach close by and began to swim towards it. As he got to the shore, he saw his reflection in the water, seeing this, actually made things a little clearer. 

'Ok, so, last thing I remember, before everything went haywire, I was in class, about to take a nap, then I woke up falling from a ridiculous height, now, I am swimming out of the ocean as a psyduck with a headache that just won't quit. My first first would be it's a dream but I am feeling too much pain for that to be true, so clearly, this is real and somehow, I've become a psyduck.'

With one question answered, he found himself with a dozen more but he could hardly think straight with the pain, and the more confused he got, the more his headache got worse. He then spotted an abra on the beach, even though he had a few questions, he knew the abra would not have the important answers and it was not a good idea to disturb an abra while it was meditating, meaning it was not worth asking him anything when the only real answers he could expect to get was about his location and the surrounding area at best. Seeing that the abra clearly had a lot of psychic energy that he was struggling to control and considering the fact there were strong winds blowing around him likely due to his psychic energy, he knew he should try and stay away for now. Sai continued to walk out the water staying as far away from the abra as he could, once he reached the beach, he sat down by a rock in the shade with his hands together and his hands closed as he tried to analyze the situation while hoping his headache would subside. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Ellie</span>

Ellie and her pokemon were currently racing to a nearby town, Ellie was in the lead with her electavire close behind, when suddenly, she started feeling faint and stumbled to the ground, as her pokemon gathered around her, looking confused and concerned as Ellie began fading away. Before she knew it, she was in a white room she began to hear a strange voice in her head. She then noticed a yellow aura surrounding her, it suddenly disappeared as she began to feel unimaginable pain, she began screaming as she could feel her bones breaking and reforming, her muscles began tearing, she soon passed out from the pain. The next thing she knew, she woke up in a strange forest, her body still aching as she pulled herself up, she began to look around, she started walking through the forest when eventually she noticed through the trees she noticed a large open field with a trees and large rocks(Tree Top Safari) She continued to wonder around aimlessly, looking for any sign of civilization.

<span class=""bb-b"">Hera</span>

Hera was camping in the forest with her pokemon, they were simply relaxing by a waterfall, she was sitting in a tree while her pokemon were having a bit of fun. When suddenly she began to fade out of existence. Suddenly she heard a voice in a pure white space and saw a light green aura surround her followed by intense pain. She passed out and woke up in a large forest. She had a look around and quickly realized it was a different forest. She was a little confused and decided to take a walk and look around to see if she could figure out where she was. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Sky</span>

Sky was in a boat on his way to fire island to capture moltres when suddenly he began to fade out of existence. He heard a voice in a pure white space and saw a white aura surround him followed by intense pain. He passed out and woke up on a mountain. As he stood up he could feel the dirt beneath his feet, as he looked down at his feet, he realized not only were his shoes missing, but he had talons not feet. As he began to look at himself more closely, he realized he had feathers, wings and claws. Confused, and a little disorientated, he began to have a look around. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Axel</span>

Axel was in his room sleeping in as usual, when suddenly he woke up because of intense pain pulsing through his body and before he knew it, he was falling out the sky, he soon passed out and woke up on a mountain. He got up and didn't recognize his surroundings. At first he thought he was dreaming and decided to wander around, when suddenly he tripped and began falling down the mountain, the pain soon confirmed he was awake. When he finally hit the ground, he was lying unconscious at the bottom of the mountain by a large valley.

<span class=""bb-b"">Brock</span>

Brock was in his office, preforming his regular check ups on his and his families pokemon, making sure they were all in good health. When suddenly his brother called out to him. He got up and headed over to the front entrance to see what he wanted, once there he saw his brother talking to a young girl. He looked to his brother and the girl and asked,

""Can I help you with something?""</div>"

Yin continued to meditate, not even noticing the psyduck. As he meditated, he became calmer and calmer, relaxing himself, he was able to actually think. The violent wind even calmed down a little, Yin, now a lot more calm, began to think to himself, trying to work it out in his head.

'Ok, so, I am an abra, my memory has faulted me, the only thing I can remember, is that I felt an unimaginable pain, then, I passed out, and ended up here. I immediately questioned my existence when I awoke, why am I here, who am I? I do not know. I can't even remember my name. I am, an abra, but why does that feel so odd to say, to hear? I am missing something, but what am I missing?""

He took a deep breath, then slowly floated to the ground, he got himself up for a moment, and began to study his body some more, waving his tail a little, wiggling his ears and fingers. He nodded and took a deep breath, he had no memory of being human. He looked around once more and quickly noticed the psyduck. He walked up to him, sitting down in front of him.

""Excuse me, sir. I don't mean to disturb you, but, do you know where I am? My memory has faulted me, I think I fell unconscious somehow, and now got serious amnesia. I.......I don't even remember my name or, why I even came here.""

He looked to him, he had never seen a pokemon do that before, or, at least he couldn't remember seeing a pokemon do that before, maybe he did, but, if he did, then he just can't remember.

<span class=""bb-b"">Emerald</span> 

Emerald flew around, maintaining his forest, he flew up to a tree and gently placed his paw on it, suddenly, the tree sprouted back to life, the leaves became a deep green, fruit suddenly growing from it in an instant. He nodded, then flew around some more, until he saw a heracross. He knew almost every pokemon in his forest, he had to, to make sure no bad pokemon had wandered in. He flew down quickly to the heracross, blocking her path.

""You, what are you doing in my forest? I have never seen you around here before, and......you, you are different somehow. Who are you?""

Emerald could sense her life energy, she wasn't like any other pokemon, no, somehow, she was different, but he couldn't point his finger on it, as to why she was different.

<span class=""bb-b"">Shaymin Village</span>

The shaymins were currently guiding visitors up Sky Peak Mountain, going through each station. One particular shaymin was taking a group through the 9th station, in fact, they had just about reached the top. The shaymin stopped for a moment, and turned to the group.

""The peak is just up ahead, it is just a little further.""

She smiled, and continued walking, when they reached the peak however, they came across a strange pokemon, a hawlucha. It was very rare to see any pokemon on sky peak without a shaymin. She slowly stepped forward for a moment with a smile.

""Excuse me sir, but, this is Shaymin territory. It is nice to have visitors, but, next time, can you please come to the village? Although, I am afraid you cannot stay, and, you must return back to your own territory. I will let you stay for a little longer, while I am here, but you when I leave, you too, must leave. May I ask your name sir?""

While she talked to the pokemon, the visitors rushed to the edge of the mountain, taking in the beautiful view of Blooming Paradise. It was wonderful. You could see the entire field.</div>"

Dylan shook his head once more, to make sure he was feeling it right. The pain had gone. All he had heard was someone saying 'Don't worry, I can help.' and then the pain had gone with a simple touch. Dylan got up, still a bit wobbly on his legs. He looked up, and saw... a Shaymin, right? In any case, it spoke again, asking if he was alright, and who he was. Neither of which he really knew the answer to. He tried his best to answer though.

  ""I... think I'm alright? I feel a bit off-kilter at the moment, and I don't really know what's going on. My headache's gone which I presume you helped me out with, so thanks for that"". He paused before speaking again. ""As for who I am, I'm... um... I... am...?"" 

His headache came back slightly, though not as bad as before. Luckily, it seemed to go away quickly, as it was replaced by a thought. A name to be specific.  

""I'm Dylan! That's it!""  

Well, if he did have amnesia, at least he remembered something, even if it was small. But why was that all he could remember right now? It wasn't very helpful... As if to answer, his headache nagged on the side of his head, almost as if it were telling him not to press into it too much. He went with the less painful option as he looked back at the Shaymin.

<span class=""bb-b"">Jade</span>

""So this must be a forest!""  

Jade had never been to a place like this. She only saw these areas in pictures and pictures in books. She had never seen so much floral life in one place before! She headed towards one of the trees making up the forest. It still felt odd, this body of hers. It was like a bunch of goo... it felt weird. And squishy. Like one of those things you squeeze and a bunch of round bubbly things come out, then go back in when you let go. She couldn't remember what it was called. Well, she didn't even know how she knew about it in the first place. It just kinda... popped into her head. Just like she had popped into this forest! At least, that's how she imagined it happened. Sorta like... POOF! Boom, forest! All she could remember was that she about to fall asleep in her bed when she, well, disappeared. Not all 'POOF'y like she thought she had appeared here, but kinda slowly. A bunch of nothing greeted her. She had tried to talk to it, but it only replied with bits and pieces of words. Then she saw black, and then... POOF! Forest!   

As she made her way to the tree, she looked around the forest. She didn't see anyone else, which seemed kinda odd. Maybe she couldn't see anyone because this place was so foreign. Or maybe everyone else was just playing hide-and-seek. The second idea sounded more fun. She called out to see if anyone was there.  

""Heeeeeelllllllllllllllooooooo??? Anyone out there?""</div>"

""Huh...? N-nice to meet you..."" she said, not realizing that a legendary stood infront of her. ""And what's your name...?"" she asked. She was obviously still out of it, seeing that Wish had already introduced herself. She fell on her backside as her vertigo came back.

She shook her head and regained focus, looking at the Jirachi with awe. ""You're a Pokemon...?"" she said, calmly at first. ""You're a Pokemon!?"" she said, starting to freak out. She shouldn't know if she should be scared or excited. She was so caught up with what was happening that she forgot to introduce herself.

Peirce looked at blue with confusion, as if what he just said was a riddle. Crux however, was already hiding himself behind a tree. He poked his head out so he could see what was going on.

When Peirce finally processed what Blue had said, he gave him a joyful smile. ""My name's Peirce!"" he said happily, pointing to himself. ""And that's my friend, Crux over there."" he said, pointing to the head of an Absol poking out from behind one of the trees. ""Hi..."" Crux said quietly to the mew with a nervous smile on his face.

""Uhh... nice to meet you!"" Peirce said to Blue enthusiastically. He didn't have much else to say, so he looked at Blue, waiting for him to state his business.</div>"

She stepped forward again, then looked to her Tyrantrum, straight away, the pokemon roared at the top of it's lungs, then came and stood next to her. She smiled, and looked back to Brock.  ""Brock, I, Candy Mills, challenge you, Brock Harrison! Right now, right here! That badge, it will be mine, Candy Mills! Believe it!""  She thrusted her fist out with a serious face. Then she slowly lowered her fist. She was ready for a pokemon battle, she was ready to win her next badge, to show just how good she was, she would win, no matter what it took!

Brock looked to the young girl and scratched his head looking a little confused.  ""umm ok good look with that. but why would you want to challenge me I am no longer the gym leader?. well ever way if you would come with me we can begin the battle.""  With that brock walked to the battle area   ""this will be a three on three pokemon battle if you are ok with that ill go fist?.""   Onix I chose you!.  with that Brock threw a pokeball into the air and a large Onix came out.

Candy smiled as she followed Brock. Once he called out his pokemon, she clicked her fingers, suddenly, the tyrantrum stepped forward. Candy looked at him seriously, stepping back for a moment.  ""I want to fight you, because you are better than anyone else, I want to challenge you because you are my rival. I have a connection to my pokemon, I understand them, and they understand me, I don't even need to speak. My tyrantrum will go first. Three on three? Fine, let's start.""  She smiled, and then cracked her knuckles. She was ready for anything.

Brock listened to the girl and scratched his head as she spoke   ""ok well thank you for the complement. so I am your rival even though we never met?. well ever way lets start the match.""   ""ok Onix lets start off with a Flash Cannon.""  with that Onix opned his moth and fired a Flash Cannon right at tyrantrum.

Candy smiled, hearing Brock shout out, she knew Tyrantrum would be able to dodge easily, and he did, jumping to the side, then he screamed loudly, this roar louder than the last, Candy had already put earmuffs on. It was Hyper Voice werful first attack. He then jumped up and smashed into the ground, making a huge earthquake, after that he used protect. Candy smiled softly.  ""Perfect start Tyrantrum. You know me like I know you.""  She smiled, then Tyrantrum stood back, watching Onix carefully.

Brock quickly covered his ears putting in a pair of ear plugs while Onix jumped towards the wall of the gym he used dig but instead of dinging into the ground he dug into the wall. with the ground shaking and the wall of the gym more then 10 feet thick to prevent pokemon attack from braking though them their was more then enough space for Onix.  once the effects of Hyper voice where of Brock smiled   "" nice move your pokemon is well trained to be able to act with out your direction but just because Onix cant hear me dose not mean he cant act Onix know how to doge and block attacks even if I say nothing.""  ""Onix use Harden followed by Heavy Slam then Iron Tail""  With that Onix came flying out of the ceiling above Tyrantrum as he headed right for him about to slam into him and waver he hit or mist him he would swing he tail full force for a follow up attack.

Tyrantrum quickly dodged but got hit with Iron Tail, although, with his sheer size, it didn't budge him at all. [Brock fought Tyrantrum kn the anime, and they are a lot bigger than Onix, plus virtually unmovable] Tyrantrum them roared, and using Head Smash, and with his ability, he didnt take any recoil damage, after that, he used Ice Fang. Candy smiled, watching him.  ""YYou forget about his size. Onix may be able to hurt him, but Tyrantrumm's best position is up close and personal."" Tyrantrum then used bulldoze, smashing his feet into the ground as he roared, combing it with Dragon Pulse.

Brock smiled as he listen to Candy.  ""onix used Iron Head followed by another Iron Tail""  Onix and Tyrantrum head butted each other both taking damage Tyrantrum As Their two head collided Onix quickly swung his Tail hitting Tyrantrum in his head Tyrantrum then Onix pulled back  ""now use Rollout and fall back.""  with that Onix bit his own tail and began to roll away from Tyrantrum just as he smashed his foot into the ground he then dug into the walls once again.  ""now I didn't forget about Tyrantrum's size. Tyrantrum may be big and he is indeed powerful but he is also slower then Onix meaning hit and run tactics will work to some extant anyway.""  as Brock said this you could see a single piece of sweet coming of his four head 'well I didn't forget this time at least'  

Tyrantrum roared, he was lucky he used protect. He stayed still, waiting, as he did, he used Dragon Dance, boosting his speed and attack, then used Iron defence, boosting his defence. He roared, waiting. Candy smiled, she would not lose.  ""Well, Tyramtrum has still got a lot in him, and onix is already injured.""  She smiled, she would not lose, never!

""Onix use Mimic""  hearing this Onix then mimicked Tyrantrum's Dragon Dance copying any stat change made by Tyrantrum.   ""ok now use Rock Polish""  Onix then Polished it body sharply increasing its speed.  ""Now use Earthquake""   with that Onix dived out of the wall and slammed into the Ground creating a powerful Earthquake.  

The earthquake hit Tyrantrum, but it seemed it was just a substitute, while the real Tyrantrum was hidden in the cracks of the first earthquake. Tyrantrumm jumped out and suddenly used fire fang, biting the sprinklers just above them, making water hit the entire arena, then he used Great Power. Candy smiled, Tyrantrum was doing well. The water would only slightly effect him, being a rock type, but it would do more harm to onix.

Brock smiled he could already tell this was going to be a fun battle.  ""Onix use Screech""  Onix the screeched at Tyrantrum harshly reduces its Defense.  ""now use Taunt followed by Protect""  Onix then Taunted Tyrantrum then It protected himself from any attack he mite use.

Tyrantrum was taunted, and in his fit of rage, used Brick Break to smash through protect, then, with onix still being wet, used Thunder Fang, making it super effective due to the sprinklers. Candy smiled, Brock was putting up a good fight.

Brock laughed a little he expected a move like brick brake and had plane for it.  ""used dig""  Onix dug under ground dogging the brick brake.  ""now use Heavy Slam combined with Iron Head""  Onix then flung up from underneath Tyrantrum slamming his head into Tyrantrum. Hitting him with the combined power of dig, Heavy Slam and Iron Head. Onix but getting hit by the Thunder Fang but thanks to protect he took no damage.

Tyrantrum roared, moving back as he took a log of damage, then he looked back at him. Candy clenched her fist tightly. They were both injured, and the battle was drawing on. It was going to be close. She hoped Tyrantrum would win. Tyrantrum roared loudly, using hyper voice again this time mixing Dragon Pulse to it, weakening the barrier even more and even smashing it if they both hit, then used Dragon Tail. Tyrantrumm then jumped back and used earth power.

Onix was hit by the Hyper Voice and Dragon Pulse Braking his protection.  ""use Iron Tail""  Onix around smashed his Tail into Tyrantrum's both took damage But with Iron tail being a stronger move and being super effective Tyrantrum would take more.   ""now use Rollout Followed by Rock smash.""  Onix dove towards Tyrantrum biting his tail in mid air Dogging earth power as Onix got closer to Tyrantrum he let go of his tail and swung it at Tyrantrum.

Onix took a lot of Damage as Tyrantrum bit his tail as he did the Dragon Pulse exploded in his moth dealing even more damage to Onix   ""Iron Head followed by Flash Cannon""  Onix then slammed his head into Tyrantrum head then shot a Flash Cannon at point black rage right into his face.

Tyrantrum roared loudly, letting go from onyx, he stepped back a little, then roared again. Tyrantrum wuickly used Giga Impact to smash into him, and if he hit, it would be enough to take him down, although, with how injured he was, there would be no chance of surviving the next battle.

Realising Onix could not Doge and would not be able to continue Battling after taking that hit Brock a tough call  ""Stealth Rock followed by Exploration.""  Hearing this Onix used Stealth Rock laying a trap for the next Pokemon as Tyrantrum got closer then Onix used Explosion Blowing himself up at that range they would be no way for Tyrantrum to avoid the blast.  as Onix Fainted Brock held out the Pokeball ""retune you did grate Onix take a good rest now Tyranitar go!""   Brock then threw out another pokeball and out popped a Tyranitar. Tyranitar Roared loudly eagerly awaiting a chance to battle.

Tyrantrum was defeated, but, at least he was able to take down onix. Shd smiled, and thought for a moment, then looked to Hydreigon with a nod.   ""Salamence, Flygon, take Tyrantrum away. Hydreigon, you're up.""  The two quickly took Tyrantrum away, then, Hydreigon flew up. She knew, that with his ability, the traps wouldnt affect him. He stood ready, he was faster than Tyranitar, and super effective against him, having a lot of moves that would be dangerous to him.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Hydreigon Vs Tyranitar"" type=""button"">Hydreigon Vs Tyranitar [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Brock smiled again   ""nice choice Hydreigon has a decent aerial advantage that will be difficult for Tyranitar to deal with luckily the sprinkles has stopped so I don't have to worry about the water increasing the power of electric moves. (in the show it only lasted a little while before the water stropped)""  ""ok lets start things off with a Rock Polish and Dragon Dance.""  ""your move.""

Candy smiled, she nodded to Hydreigon who decided to use reflect, then taunt, making the Tyranitar angry so it would hopefully attack.

Hydreigon tunted Tyranitar, Tyranitar then used Blizzard followed by Thunder the Blizzard covered the battlefield making it harder to see as well as attacking Hydreigon then the Thunder aimed at where Hydreigon was right before Tyranitar lost sight of him.

Hydreigon moved out the way from the thunder, and stayed hidden in the blizzard, using it to blend himself in, as he did, he used double team, then, he used rain dance, stopping the blizzard and instead making it rain, he then gathered energy between his hands, and used Focus Blast, as well as Signal Beam as one attack, making it so much stronger, and using his enhanced hearing and senses, he knew where tyranitar was located. Once he did that, he flew into the air and watched him closely.

Brock watched as Hydreigon used rain dance then lunched a counter attack   ""Sandstorm followed by Smack Down Twice""  Tyranitar used Sandstorm stopping the rain and makeing it more difficult for Hydreigon to fly. Then Tyranitar picked up and threw a large rock at Hydreigon the rock blew up on content stopping the attack and sending rubble flying in all directions a number of rocks hit Tyranitar but had no effect another barrage of rubble was headed right for Hydreigon. then Tyranitar jumped to the side and picked up and threw another large rock at Hydreigon. Hydreigon now had a barrage of rubble flying at him from one direction and from another a large rock while a powerful Sandstorm was raging.

Hydreigon saw the attacks coming, and with the vicious sandstorm, it wasn't going to be easy, He used fire blast with all three of his heads, two little heads firing at the incoming rubble, while the main head fired at the large rock, and when the large rock was destroyed, it destroyed the rubble quickly. Then, he took some damage with the sandstorm, but, it was only minor. He used sunny day, changing the weather again, then, he flew down, and then used Hyper Voice, as he did, the two little heads went and used Hyper Beam together, as they were charging up, the large head began using Incinerate, the two little heads quickly finished and fired the hyper beams side by side.

Tyranitar was temporarily stunned by the hyper voice then two of Hydreigon's heads began charging their Hyper Beam while the main head used Incinerate Brock was a little surprised but had seen this kind of attack before and the effect of hyper voice had worn of at this point.  ""dig""  Tyranitar quickly dug into the ground to escape damage from Hydreigon's attack.  ""Ice Punch flowed by Ice Fang combined with Crunch.""  Tyranitar came out of the ground under Hydreigon's using Ice Punch aimed at Hydreigon's as well as Ice Fang and Crunch aimed at his neck.

Hydreigon saw Tyranitar coming, and stayed still, letting him think that he had been affected by the Hyper Beam, the attack hit, and he closed his eyes in pain, but, with him being so close, there was no way for him to dodge his next attack, he had to act quickly, immediately, the two heads used Focus Blast, while the main head used Signal Beam, each attack being super effective.

Tyranitar saw the attack coming but could do nothing to avoid damage but Brock already plained for this he knew Tyranitar would take a hit for getting that close. He knew Hydreigon could use hyper beam and still move but he was hoping Hydreigon would take the chance to get a guaranteed hit on Tyranitar.  Tyranitar took the hit taking a huge amount of damage and closed his eyes for a second because of the pain but he did not allow himself to roar or scream out in pain. Instead he held on to Hydreigon and with his size and strength he was not moved back.   ""now use a double Fire Punch. follwed by cut""  With that both of Tyranitar's where set on fire with the fire power enhanced by the sunny day, he then sung his arms punching Hydreigon'a wings then he held on to them as he used cut to scratch holes in Hydreigon's wings taking away his ability to fly for the rest of the battle.

Hydreigon roared in pain as his wings were cut into, but, Candy expected as much, she clenched her fist, and nodded, she wasn't sure what to do now, but maybe Hydreigon had something in mind, since the two were still close together, the two small heads used fire blast, while the main head used Zen Headbutt, Candy watched, the battle was intense, she had no idea who was going to win.

Brock watch the unable to tell who would come out on on top this was one of the most intense he had ever had.  Tyranitar took another hit taking more damage.  ""its time to end this Earthquake followed by Outrage and Giga Impact""  Tyranitar finality let go of Hydreigon as he jumped back a little as he landed he used Earthquake to knock Hydreigon off balance since he could no longer fly then he charged at him at full speed combining Outrage and Giga Impact Brock gave this command knowing full well that Tyranitar would be left defenceless after the move weather it hit or mist. Brock was sure it would hit Thanks to Tyranitar's Dragon Dance and Rock Polish he used at the start of this battle. With fact that Hydreigon could no longer fly and would be knocked of balance Brock was confidant that Tyranitar would be able to move a lot faster then Hydreigon. All he hat to worry about was the damage Tyranitar would take after the attack especially if Hydreigon was somehow able to ever doge the attack or get back up to counter it. With the damage Tyranitar had already taken plus with the recoil damage of Giga Impact Tyranitar would be on his last legs.

Hydreigon knew that he was done for if he let the attack hit him, and now, being unable to fly, Hydreigon had to think fast, all three heads quickly shot a large Dragon Breath at the floor, making him shoot up into the air, and thus, the attacks missed, but, what goes up, must go down, all three heads used Super Power, combined with Zen Headbutt, with Tyranitar unable to move, it was a guarantee hit. Although, when the attack hit, Hydreigon fell down, he had been badly wounded, and had used the last of his energy using that last attack, and he knew, without flight, he would not last much longer anyway.

Tyranitar looked on in shock as Hydreigon dodged the attack and began to counter unable to do anything he took yet another powerful hit and fell to the ground unable to continue. Brock saw how Hydreigon dodged the attack and was very impressed but with the damage he had already sustained and the fact he can no longer fly Hydreigon was pretty much done at this point. Brock then held out his pokeball.  ""Retune you well Tyranitar I will take it from hear while you rest. Now its up to you Archeops.""  with that Brock threw yet another pokeball and out popped a Archeops.  Brock looked to Cnady   ""Hydreigon is still conscious but we both know he is unfit to continue fighting the question is are you going to force him to continue and me to attack a defenceless pokemon?.""

Candy huffed, listening to Brock, was he a fool? Of course she wasn't going to force him to fight, what kind of trainer would she be if she allowed such a thing? She walked over to Hydreigon, and quickly used a potion, healing him a little, then she stood back.   ""Hydreigon, with that, you should be able to fly now, it will be hard, so go with Flygon and Dragonite as soon as they return, go to the pokemon center.""  Just as she said that, the two returned, she smiled, and Hydreigon flew up with a struggle, seeing the situation, Flygon and Dragonite quickly went to his aid and helped him out. She then looked to Brock.  ""I would never force a pokemon to battle when they are that injured. You insult me. Now, for the final fight.""  She clicked her fingers, and then, a Druddigon came out, she smiled, this would be an interesting battle. She knew Druddigon had the advantage, once again, having a lot of super effective moves, but, they could both fly and were both incredibly fast, she had no idea who'd win this battle.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Druddigon Vs Archeops"" type=""button"">Druddigon Vs Archeops [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Brock smiled as he saw how Candy Handled the situation.  ""I am sorry if you where insulted by my question but I hat to ask simple because their are many trainers that force their pokemon to battle until they lose consciousness. but I am glad that you chose to help your pokemon rather then course him more pain now let us continue. ill let you go fist.""

Candy smiled, and stepped up. She gently patted his back for a moment, while she looked at Brock, she hoped Brock would go first, but, guess not. She slowly turned to Druddigon with a bright smile, stroking him.   ""Druddigon, I don't expect you to win, nor do I expect you to lose. I ask for your best, that is all. Now, you know what to do, we trained specifically for this battle. I know you can do it, I know you will battle your best. Win, or lose, you will earn my respect. You are not as well trained as the others, I know, but, I will leave it up to you, I leave the battle to you, my trust, to you. Good luck, Druddigon.""  She smiled, and stepped back, as she did, Druddigon went straight in, using Double Team, with that, he used Hone Claws, followed by a Dark Pulse, as he used Dark Pulse, he immediately used Focus Blast.

Brock watch as Druddigon began his attack.   ""so you want to make this a battle of speed? fine by me.""  Archeops dove to avoid toward the ground the attack.  ""Archeops lets boost your speed use Agility, Rock Polish, Hone Claws and Double Team.""  with that Archeops speed increased massively as well as increasing its attack.

Druddigon watched closely, he knew his enemy was much faster, but that was not a problem, he could still win, there was still a chance. He quicly used Dragon Dance, then, flew back a little, watching closely.

""use Sandstorm followed by Smack Down and Focus Blast""  with that Archeops summoned a powerful sandstorm then picked up a rock and lunched it at Druddigon then put his hand together to create a focus blast and fired it at Druddigon.

Druddigon could easily handle the sandstorm, in fact, it didn't affect him at all. He smiled, and quickly dodged the attack, he watched closely, making sure to dodge any attack he could as he knew, his best bet was up close, he would have to force him to get close.

""keep your distance and use Dragon Pulse and Heat Wave""  Archeops charged a Dragon Pulse in his moth and shot it at Druddigon then relished a Heat Wave headed right for him.

Druddigon dodged quickly dodged the attacks, and then flew down, he then used dragon breath, knowing it would probably miss, but, it was worth a try. All he could do for now is dodge.

Archeops dodged easily   ""use Archeops Ancient Power""  Archeops then used Ancient Power aimed for Druddigon.

Druddigon dodged again and managed to dodge most of it, but got hit slightly, although it hurt, he was still able to fly he smiled, he had to try his hardest he would not give up.

""he may keep dogging but keep your distance and use Dragon Pulse""  Archeops used Dragon Pulse aimed for Druddigon.

Druddigon clenched his fist and flew in quickly, heading straight for him. He charged up a thunder punch, and attempted to hit him.

Brock saw the attack coming ""Aerial Ace""  Archeops used Aerial Ace to doge Druddigon's attack and aimed for Druddigon's back.

Druddigon dodged just about, and in return, used Dragon Tail and Iron Tail together, hoping to hit him hard.

Brock knew Archeops could not doge in time at that range so instead he needed to hit harder.  ""use Giga Impact combined Stone Edge""   Archeops then used stone edge and as rocks began to circle him he charged at Druddigon using Giga Impact the two hit each other Archeops stone edge provided some protection but he still took a lot of damage but hit Druddigon hard in retune.

Druddigon took a lot of damage, roaring in pain, but, at least he manage to hit him. He quickly used fire punch and then used shadow claw, hoping to finish him off now.

Archeops could not doge because of the Giga Impact and took another hit and got knocked back a little. now he was on his last legs now it was all or nothing and with the Druddigon one more powerful hit or two or three weaker one could do the trick.  ""use Steel Wing combined with Shadow Claw and Acrobatics""  Archeops was now so close to Druddigon he combined his tree attacks and flew right for Druddigon hoping to take him out.

Druddigon quickly dropped to the ground, and used did as soon as it hit, then, when the attack missed he came up with a Metal Claw and Super Power, hoping to finish him off right then and there.

""lets end this Sky Attack Giga Impact and Zen Headbutt""  Brock knew this was risky with the damage Archeops from two direct hits and the recoil from the last Giga Impact Archeops may get knocked out by this next attack or even the next recoil damage. However he knew this was he best chance to take out Druddigon.   Archeops charged at Druddigon the two attacks and pokemon collied the impact coursed an explosion as Archeops started falling towards the ground.  

Druddigon took a lot of damage, but now was his chance, his only chance, he quickly used Charge Beam added with Focus Blast, hoping to win the battle once and for all, and do Candy proud.</div></div>

the battle was over Archeops falling helplessly to the ground and could not move he was hit by Druddigon attack and was knocked out.  Brock began to walk to Candy as he pulled the badge out of his bag but he was heading towards her he started to get dizzy and stumbled a little. He saw his hand dispersing. Confused with the situation Brock looked at Candy who was also dispersing.  ""what's happening?""  then suddenly he was in a white room hearing a strange voice. then the next thing he knew he was falling from the Sky.  and woke up on a beach with a sore head not sure what had just happened.

Candy took a deep breath, she had won, just barely. She smiled, walking over to him, holding out her hand ready to accept the badge, when suddenly, the two began to disappear. Suddenly, they were in a pure white room, she looked around, having no idea what was going on.  ""What, no! No no no! What's going on?""  A loud voice was heard, then a surge of pain hit her, after that, everything went dark. The next thing she knew, she was in some sort of town. She slowly got herself up, but, she felt different. She looked around, everything was so busy, pokemon were everywhere. She then looked down, looking at herself, and all she saw was a dratini.  ""What the hell?""  She was confused, she didn't know what to do. She looked around some more, and nodded, ok, she was a dratini. She had no idea why, she had to figure this out, she could tell just from the surrounding area, this place was a pure pokemon civilization, she could even understand them. She looked around some more, and then nodded to herself. She needed to find help.</div>"

Araisao began to wonder around, not sure where he was even going. He stopped for a moment, and gave a few sniffs to the air. He then looked around some more. He was still getting used to his new body of his. It was then that he noticed another pokemon, an elekid. He smiled and ran over to her quickly, hoping she would have the answers he needed.

""Excuse me, but ummmm.....Where am I exactly? I seemed to be lost, how do I get out of here?""

He swished his tail lightly, hoping for some sort of decent answer. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Red</span>

Red looked around some more, and slowly got off his ass. He sighed, and began to wonder the hot boiling desert. He knew he was a fire type, but still, the heat was intense. If he stayed in the desert too long, he would end up dead of dehydration. He sighed, continuing to wonder the desert, hoping to get somewhere useful, somewhere where he could take a rest.

<span class=""bb-b"">Star</span>

Star slowly got herself up, and began to wonder around, she still had no idea where to go, but, hopefully, something would help her out eventually along the way. She started to walk past a large mountain, swishing her tail as she did. She was glad she didn't have to go through it, otherwise, she could of been walking all day. She sighed, continuing to walk to wherever she was going, still having no idea what to do, once she had passed the mountain, she came to a forest of some kind, she looked around and then looked back, she decided it would be best to just go through, maybe there would be somebody in there who could help her.

<span class=""bb-b"">Slade</span>

Slade continued to look around, this was actually a nice place. He smiled, and then looked to a bush, he could probably move that thing, he grabbed it, and pulled it over the secret entrance, that way, it looked like nothing was there, now, he would be able to come back and use that space whenever he wanted. He then looked on forward, and decided to wonder around, and quickly began to move, although, as he began to walk, he came to realize, that he was in some sort of town, with many different pokemon, his walking came to a stop as he took a look around. It was amazing. There were so many pokemon, almost like a pokemon civilization. It made him question, where was he exactly? 

<span class=""bb-b"">Magnem</span>

Magnem continued to look around and soon decided to wonder around, as he certainly couldn't sit and do nothing now. So, he decided to go back, going away from the waterfall. As he did, he looked around, taking in his surrounding area. He soon noticed, that he was coming to a field of flowers, a field with such amazingly bloomed flowers. He smiled, as he continued to wonder around, it was interesting, so very interesting. He had never seen anything like it before.</div>"

Grace listened to him, and thought for a moment, she wondered why he hesitated at first, was it possible, that he too was losing his memory? She sighed and gently shook her head. Then she thought for a moment, wondering what to do.

""Yes, I helped you, I have the ability to heal others, you.....seem to be having memory problems. It is quite common here, recently. I wndish I could help with that, but, so far, there is no known cure. Pokemon all around have been losing memory, and some just disappear without a trace, just, gone. It's so sad.""

She sighed softly and then she looked around, seeing a magnemite, now, that was really strange, seeing a mudkip in the area was one thing, but a magnemite? This was just getting bizarre. She turned to him with a happy smile.

""Excuse me, are.....you ok?""

She smiled once more, swishing her tail.

<span class=""bb-b"">Victory</span>

Victory was just minding his own business, eating an apple. It was nice, and quiet, but then, suddenly, somebody began shouting. He slowly lowered his hand and sighed, then, took a quick peek, seeing who it was. To his surprise. it was a goomy, who were never in this area. He thought for a moment, and then jumped down softly, and landed behind her.

""Nope, nobody here.""

He smiled, and then walked up from behind her, tapping her as he walked in front of her. He thought for a moment, wondering why exactly was she here, when her kind never left horrible dirty disgusting swamps. He shivered for a moment and gave a soft smile.

""So.......you are?""

He gently tapped his foot, waiting for a reply. He didn't like others who disturbed his eating. He found it annoying actually.

<span class=""bb-b"">Wish</span>

Wish just stared at her, wondering who exactly she was, watching her freak out for a moment or two. She shook her head quickly, and gave her another smile, hoping to calm her down a little.

""Yes, yes I am a pokemon, and so are you. Are you ok? The memory effect must really be affecting you, don't worry, you will be ok. I am Jirachi, the legendary wish granting pokemon. Recently, pokemon have been losing their memories, and nobody knows why, some pokemon even disappear, and nobody knows where to. It is a mystery that is frightening a lot of pokemon, and it seems, maybe you are being affected to.""

She slowly flew closer, tapping her on the shoulder a little, hoping it would help calm her down. She had no idea of her true identity, all she knew was she was a distressed pokemon, and she had to help.

<span class=""bb-b"">Blue</span>

Blue smiled at the two, then looked over to Crux. He didn't know why he was afraid, maybe just shy, he then turned to the other one, and gave a smile back to him, it was strange, it seemed he wasn't being affected by the memory loss at the moment, that was incredibly rare to find.

""Please, I am not a threat. I am the legendary mew. I do not mean to harm you, so, you can come out of hiding. Now, for my business, I have never seen you in this forest before, and I wondered what you were doing here, not just that, but, it's strange, you don't seem to be affected by the memory loss at all yet. You two are very lucky, do you know anything about it?""

He tilted his head, and then looked back to Crux with a friendly smile.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tear and Cyan</span>

Tear and Cyan watched the togepi, seeing her become more and more confused. It was strange, as the more they awaited the answer, the more she forgot her past. Tear looked to Cyan for a moment, then looked back to the togepi.

""Hello.......are.....are you ok?""

She looked to Cyan once more, and  Cyan looked to her, even he was curious at this point, they looked to the togepi again, only to see that she was fading out of existence and soon enough, she was gone. Tear just stared, she wasn't sure what she should do. She looked to Cyan seriously, worried for everyone else.

""We have to leave, now! We have to figure out what's going on! This is a new development, once somebody loses their memory completely, they disappear, now we know what's happening!""

She looked back to where the togepi was, then looked to Cyan again who gave a soft sigh and a small nod.

<span class=""bb-b"">Candy</span>

Candy, now a dratini, decided it be best to look around, and get an idea of where she was exactly. She began to fly.....sort of, more like float, but it could also be called flying as well. She flew slowly, going towards the town exit, and soon enough, she ended at some cross roads. She looked around, wondering which way to go, and soon enough, she decided to go down, and lucky for her, she made the right choice, as she ended up on the beach. She smiled, looking to the sea.

""Whoa, amazing.""

She smiled, but soon took notice of a croagunk. She went over to him quickly with a soft smile, seeing him on the floor, and looking pretty confused and injured.

""Are.....you ok?""

Although, she didn't expect too much from this pokemon, as he didn't look like he was around here, but, that also brought her to a few other questions and conclusions.

<span class=""bb-b"">Inferno</span>

Inferno continued to look around, and soon began to walk through the field of flowers, feeling the floor and listening out as he did. He soon ended up in a village of some kind, as far as he could tell, he listened to his surrounding area, and sniffed up, there was a scent among all overs that caught his attention. He didn't know what it was though. He looked around, and then smiled, if he could see, then it would be a lot easier, although life wasn't easy. He wondered, that maybe one of these people could help him out.

<span class=""bb-b"">Thunder</span>

Thunder was still amazed that he was now a pichu. He smiled, and then looked around, wondering where to go now. He sniffed the air for a moment, then looked around some more, he saw some sort of cave, and wondered, if maybe there was something through there. He nodded to himself, and began to walk through. It was dark, and he couldn't see, he had to feel around to actually know where he was going, and even still, that wasn't easy. He sighed, he still didn't understand why this had happened, or what exactly was going on.</div>"
23666,Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: The Untold Truth!,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76505-pokemon-mystery-dungeon-the-untold-truth,"['Fandom', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Anime/Manga', 'Small Group']",2015-02-24 02:41:00,Noklu,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><span class=""bb-b"">Dylan</span>

Dylan listened attentively to the Shaymin as she spoke. She had been able to tell he had memory loss, probably due to his loose tongue. He shouldn't have worried her like that, but what's done is done. More importantly, many other pokemon were losing their memories, just like he had. However, the last part she said kinda spooked him a bit. He couldn't help but mutter to himself a bit

""They... disappear?"" 

Did that mean that he, too, would disappear eventually? Dammit, if only he could remember something, anything! He couldn't even remember how he appeared here. Suddenly, an idea burst into his mind. Maybe the Shaymin could help him find the answer to how he got here. Snapping out of his thoughts, he turned towards the Shaymin to ask a question.

""Say, did you happen to notice something odd a little while ago?""

He asked the question, but she had her attention on something else now. Someone else. A magnemite. Here, in a field of flowers. Dylan was pretty sure that wasn't natural. This new development took priority. He'd have to hold his tongue until after the magnemite had been checked up on. For now, he joined the Shaymin in making sure the magnemite was okay, and added his voice.

""You're not hurt, are you?

The magnemite didn't look too bad, but something felt... off. Dylan didn't quite know what.

<span class=""bb-b"">Jade</span>

After Jade had cried out she got a response. No one there, huh? Nope. Nada. She didn't believe it. Not a second. It wasn't like trees could talk. Unless, of course, these trees were magical or something. Sorta like how the trees from that one movie attacked. She couldn't remember which one though. Hopefully these trees wouldn't attack her, if they were actually magical. Which was unlikely. Before Jade could continue her train of thought, she something tap her.

""Gah!""

She couldn't help but shout in surprise. She was about to believe her hypothesis of the trees being magical, when the culprit stepped forward. She didn't recognize him from anywhere. He seemed to have a V on his forehead though. Or maybe those were his ears. Either way, he seemed to have been playing around with her. Trees couldn't be magical after all! ...She hoped. Anyways, she was asked who she was, and it would be rude to ignore him.

""I'm Jade! Nice to meet you Mr. V!""

She inwardly gleamed at the name she gave Mr. V. She had been taught to call people 'Mister' and 'Miss', and the title 'V' just fit him so well! Wait... maybe Mr. V knew something about why she was here! She decided it wouldn't hurt to ask.

""Say, Mr. V, do you know why I'm here? Wait, first off, where is 'here'?""</div>"

""What do you mean memory loss... I was just-"" she stopped suddenly, realizing that she, in fact, didn't remember a thing except for her name and the fact that she was a human. ""I guess I am losing my memory..."" she said, almost in a panic. ""What do I do?!"" she asked Wish, hopeful for an answer.

-

""Sorry..."" Crux replied to blue with embarrassment. ""Memory loss?"" Peirce said to Blue. ""Never heard of anything like it. Hopefully it doesn't happen to us..."" he said, thinking. ""Well, the best we can do is hope we aren't affected."" Peirce said bluntly. ""Oh, and sorry for being in your forest, we will leave if you'd like.""</div>"

As Brock was rubbing his head, a dratini walked up and asked if he was ok, Brock was taken aback by his surprise at hearing a pokemon talk, and began to mutter to himself. 

""What the hay, how the... how the hay is that dratini speaking, did it train itself like meowth?""

As Brock fell back in his surprise, he noticed his legs, noticing they were blue with black feet, he then looked to his hands, and saw they were the same. He rolled over, and crawled to the water to look to his reflection.

""Ahhhhh!""

Brock jumped back in surprise once again, this time, landing on his back under the dratini, looking up at her confused.

""Err, no, I can't say I am ok because I think I am going insane. This is clearly not a dream, my head is killing. The last thing I remember, I was having an intense pokemon battle at my gym, then, me and the challenger began to disappear, now, not only am I not in my gym with my family and our pokemon nowhere to be seen, but it turns out I have watched up on a beach somewhere as a freaking croagunk, and talking to a dratini as if it were human. Yep, I am finally lost it, I am certifiably insane.""

<span class=""bb-b"">Sai</span>

Suddenly, the abra got up and spoke to him, and now that his headache had quieted down a little, maybe he could try and get some answers from the abra. He then listened to what the abra said, and realized, rather than get answers from him, he would have to figure out what happened. 

""Ok, you might think I am insane, but... here's what I know, I am a human, although currently, I am in the body of a psyduck, I fell asleep in my classroom, then I woke up falling from so high, that I thought I was going to die, I passed out from the lack of air, and woke up once again in the water, I swam here, saw my reflection and with everything going on, I realized, even if I don't fully understand it, somehow I was transported from the classroom to this strange island along the way or before I got transported, I became a psyduck, and ended up on this strange beach, I have no idea if it is even the same world, let alone country from where I started. I have no way of knowing what brought me here, why I am here, what's going on, how I get back or how I fix any of this, and every time I come up with an answer, I find about twenty questions but, since you said you woke up here, and you are suffering from amnesia, I can come up with only two possible conclusions, A, your simply a pokemon who suffered some sort of injury, maybe a blow to the head that is causing the memory loss, or something unknown is the cause, B, like me, your not from here, you were transported along with me, maybe even one of my fellow classmates, and just wound up here. The explanation for your amnesia however remains essentially the same, either you hit your head during the fall and suffered an injury that is the cause or some unknown force is the problem. It's not much, but that's all the answers I've got.""

<span class=""bb-b"">Ellie</span>

While Ellie was wondering around, she came across an eevee, or rather, an eevee ran up to her and started asking questions. She stepped backed a little in surprise and shock, wondering how an eevee could talk, or how she could understand it. 

""Wait, your an eevee? How the hell are you even talking?"" 

<span class=""bb-b"">Hera</span>

As Hera was wondering around, celebi suddenly appeared in front of her, surprising her a little, she listened to him in confusion, then looked to him as she replied.

""I don't even know where I am, let alone how I got here, what am I doing here or even why I am here in the first place. As for who I am, I am... err... I am...""

Hera got even more confused as she struggled to remember her name, she then saw her reflection in a puddle on the floor.

'Heracross, I am a heracross... Hera Cross... Hera...' 

""Errm, you can call me Hera, at least I think that is my name, it definitely sounds familiar, then again, I am a heracross, so I suppose it would.""

As she said that out loud, she realized how bizarre that sounded, but she didn't know why.

<span class=""bb-b"">Sky</span>

As Sky was looking around a shaymin with a group of pokemon came up the mountain. He looked to the shaymin as it began asking him a few questions. 

""Errrm... ok, I get this is your territory, and you don't want people coming here without asking, but I have a few questions for you, where the hell is here? How the hell do I get down, and what the hell is going on? How did I even get here?""</div>"

Araisao looked to the elekid, wondering what to say, he found her answer strange, it wasn't the answer that he was expecting, would a pokemon even say that? He wasn't sure, he shook his head, then looked back to her with a smile.

""Well, I am a pokemon now, I guess... so... I figured I could just, I don't know, maybe talk to other pokemon, but, you are a pokemon, right and, yet, you seem so surprised that I am talking, so perhaps you are not a normal pokemon like I""

He smiled for a moment, swaying his tail softly as he waited for her answer.

<span class=""bb-b"">Slade</span>

Slade looked around, and quickly noticed the dratini was going somewhere, with no idea what to do, she decided to follow her... because... he had no idea what else to do. He ran on quickly, trying to catch up to her, although, once he reached the cross roads, he had completely lost her. He had no idea where to go. He thought for a moment, looking around, he decided to go down, and see what was down there. Lucky for him, he managed to find the dratini with another pokemon. He slowly stepped forward, listening to what they said. Once the croagunk finished talking, he stepped on up.

""Hello, errm... it is possible, that... maybe... I don't know... well, I was human too, now I am a pokemon... does that make a difference?""

He looked to the dratini, then back to the croagunk.

<span class=""bb-b"">Magnen</span>

Magnem looked to the shaymin, then, looked to the other pokemon, a mudkip... he looked back to the shaymin, wondering about the question, when he gently shook his... head? Body? He had no idea at this point...

""Well... I have magnets for hands... My head is essentially my body now... and I am a freaking floating sphere that has no gender! Of course, I am perfectly fine.""

He sighed, he wasn't even sure how he was talking, he had no mouth... as far as he could tell anyway... Damn, magnemites were so confusing... it was making his... body hurt...?</div>"

Ok then, all the old information is up there, now, for the new stuff.

In some locations, there will be a legendary, or a special pokemon. For example, in a certain forest, Celebi will be there. In a desert, you will meet a Flygon or perhaps a intelligent sandshrew. Etc. Each person will spawn in different locations. Nobody will spawn in the exact same location. 

<span class=""bb-b"">NOW, this is NOT the game.</span>

If your pokemon has claws, use them. Dig, scratch, whatever. Even if the pokemon cannot dig in the game or series, I don't care. If your pokemon has wings, go ahead, use them. My example is Scyther. It has wings, yet can never fly, well in this, it can.

<span class=""bb-b"">EXP</span>

You will gain exp for several things.

Fighting and defeating enemies, 
Using moves creatively
Joining Guilds, Teams, or Exploration Teams.
Completion of missions gained by guilds, boards, anything you can get missions from. You can, and will gain missions from the guild master him/herself as long as you are a trustworthy and decent team.

You CAN make your own, guild, team or exploration team, or join a already formed one.

You can go anywhere you want.

Special events WILL take place at certain times, and you CAN evolve in battle/during missions or explorations. When you are able to evolve, I will PM you. Please look on google for the exp your pokemon needs to evolve, I will be checking.

You CAN start out as any evolution you want, the only exception, is it cannot be a Human turned pokemon. All human turned pokemon start at level 1, in their evolution form. You cannot start at level 6 or above, no matter what. Only level 5 and below.

Personality: A little courageous, but is sensitive to certain things. Even though she doesn't know why, she will be easily offended if you call her ""boyish"" or a ""tomboy,"" omitting to her human troubles. She may be tempted to rush into things, however she sometimes has a troubled side that shows through. She has rapid mood swings at times, swinging between highs and lows. She's very emotional, as hard headed as she may seem, and would do anything for a friend.
Bio: A human turned absol, Jackie is an old transgender artist and musician in training. Her human form was male, becoming trans female, starting to feel awful about herself. She used to be bullied about being trans, and she took the abuse harshly. she used to live in a suburban town, a relatively quiet place. School for her was half torture and half bliss, due to her favorited art and band teacher. She had few friends, but they were close to her, and she put a lot of effort into keeping them, as she was terrified of losing them. Often her homework would be neglected, despite of her above average intelligence, and she ended up struggling a ton during school for her lack of enthusiasm. But through these troubles, she felt happiness in her art, music, and friends, the diamond in the dust of her day.

Gender: Male
Age: 17
Species: Mudkip
Level: 1
Appearance:  <img src=""http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs40/f/2009/021/6/5/Mudkip__Mud_Fish_PKMN_by_Xous54.png""/>

Personality: Dylan tends to be wise for his age, due to the world wide web, as well as some stress. He also puts others before himself mostly, however, he leans on those he trusts or absolutely needs help from. He tends to keep his true feelings and issues to himself, not wanting to bother others with his problems. Dylan enjoys to play games and has a competitive side to him when he plays. He makes friends fairly quickly (if they seem nice to him, that is), and once he considers someone a friend, he'll hold on to that title for as long as he can.

Bio: Once being human, Dylan grew up in a suburban community, and lived a relatively normal life. However, being young and foolish, he tended to procrastinate various things (or at least try). Homework, chores, family obligations; almost anything was fair game to pushing back. His grades and motivation quickly decreased, and was frequently scolded. He valued his time with friends above all else. What he lost in procrastination, he made up for with general care for his friends He often was afraid that he'd lose his friends, so he tried to make them happy whenever possible. However, when one of his small group of friends had to move away, the group started to fall apart. Dylan slowly grew depressed, and with nothing better to do, stopped procrastinating. He worked with little emotion or enthusiasm. Only when he found a new group of friends did he become happy again. He continued to do his work (though still tried to get out of it here and there) and found a balance in his life. Currently he has no memory of his human life, only knowing his name, and knowledge of Pokémon.

<span class=""bb-b"">Level:</span> 1

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Reina is always chipper and friendly, greeting everyone with a smile and teasing remark. Perhaps this is why people are surprised to find that when they think about her… they can never actually remember anything about her life. Her cheerful disposition masks her tendency to hold everyone at arm's length, though she seems fine with others telling <span class=""bb-i"">her</span> their personal details. Reina likes to be in control of situations, and the easiest way to do that is to get as much outside information as she can while holding her own cards close to her chest. The jury's still out on whether she does this because she has trust issues or just values her privacy.

<span class=""bb-b"">Bio:</span> Not that she remembers any of this, but Reina grew up in a fairly happy household with her mom, siblings, and grandma. Her dad was in and out of her life because of work, but that wasn't the cause of her issues with him. Life was good except when he was home, and when he was Reina learned to deal. It was during those times that she would find reasons to go outside and explore with her pokemon, only returning when her mom called her, voice thick with worry… and a bit of disapproval.

Sorry for large image! ^^'
 
Personality: He is a very shy Pokemon. It takes him a long time to trust someone, but when he does, he's a loyal friend. He has an extremely low self=esteem, and he thinks everyone else is better than him. He is childishly fearful when left alone (by Peirce, another character I'm going to make soon).

Bio: Crux suffers from social anxiety, and tends to stay in places where other Pokemon aren't common. If he is to go in a populated area, he stays very close to Peirce. If another Pokemon comes near him, he tends to go somewhere else. If someone is to approach him, however, he kindly waits for them to state their business whilst trying to not have an anxiety attack.

Ok, first, characters are only lv 1 if human, or 1-5 if non human. So, you need to change that, unless, you want to make him a guild master of a new guild, but, he doesn't seem to be the guild master type. 

Second, you need to imput the experience you need to level up. 

Lastly, Pressure would never world for this Rp. I recommend using Super Luck or Justified.</div>"

Ok, first, characters are only lv 1 if human, or 1-5 if non human. So, you need to change that, unless, you want to make him a guild master of a new guild, but, he doesn't seem to be the guild master type. 

Second, you need to imput the experience you need to level up.

Sorry for large image! ^^'
 
Personality: He is a very shy Pokemon. It takes him a long time to trust someone, but when he does, he's a loyal friend. He has an extremely low self=esteem, and he thinks everyone else is better than him. He is childishly fearful when left alone (by Peirce, another character I'm going to make soon).

Bio: Crux suffers from social anxiety, and tends to stay in places where other Pokemon aren't common. If he is to go in a populated area, he stays very close to Peirce. If another Pokemon comes near him, he tends to go somewhere else. If someone is to approach him, however, he kindly waits for them to state their business whilst trying to not have an anxiety attack.

I am allowing some leeway, and strengthening abilities. Some abilities will never be used, or, rarely be used. Some abilities aren't very useful.

I will allow you to use abilities that your pokemon normally can't use.

<a href=""https://pokemondb.net/ability"">http://pokemondb.net/ability</a>

Use this website and choose a better ability for yourself if you'd like. You two are already accepted, so you can keep the ability if you wish, but, instead of getting higher chances of critical hits, you can increase your accuracy by 20.</div>"

Now, before anyone gets confused, ALL humans are stating out in the human world.

First, you fade from existence from the human world. Now you CAN bring things with you, as long as it is needed in the pokemon world. For example, a blind man would not need a bottle of milk or a blind stick in the pokemon world, so, they would simply go through his hands. 

No actually pokemon will be posting just yet. Jut post with your human pokemon please.

Now, some areas are connected to each other. The areas people are in are as followed. 

Scorched Desert
Deepwater Swamp
Treasure Town
Secluded Beach
Blooming Paradise
Dust Woods
Mystic Woods
Rainbow Valley
Shallow Beach
Waterfall Lake
Wild Plains
Blossoming Flowers
Eternal Forest
Starlight Plains
Sharpedo Bluff

So, this is how it goes.

Shallow Beach-Secluded Beach-Treasure Town-Sharpedo Bluff.

Blooming Paradise-Blossoming Flowers-Wild Plains-Waterfall Lake-Eternal Forest-Deepwater Swamps-Mystic Woods-Dust Woods-Scorched Desert-Rainbow Valley-Starlight Plains

Basically, what I am saying, is that the areas are connected together. Therefore, you can travel and meet other pokemon who are in different areas. Any Questions? If so, please ask. Posting the IC........NOW!</span></div>"

Starting at Sharpedo Bluff, Treasure Town to Secluded Beach through Beach Cave to Shallow Beach to Miracle Sea to Tree Top Safari to Midnight Forest passed Earthquake Mountain to Hidden Jungle to Bottomless Sea, then passed Sky High Mountain to Foggy Forest, to Fogbound Lake, to Bountiful Sea, to Furnace Desert, to Infernal Path to Scorched Plains passed Blazing Inferno (Volcano) to Post Town to Pokemon Paradise to Everlasting Woods passed Moonlight Mountain to Moonlit Valley to Moonlit Village to Serene Sea through Cryptic Cave to Wild Plains to Blossoming Flowers to Shaymin Village passed Sky Peak Mountain to Blooming Paradise to Waterfall Lake to Eternal Forest to Deepwater Swamp to Mystic Woods to Dust Forest to Scorched Desert to Sandpit Desert to Rainbow Valley to Rainbow Peak to Star Cave to Starlight Plains to Sunset Peak Mountain to Icicle Field to Frozen Lake passed Frozen Top Mountain to Blizzard Island to Frozen Forrest passed through Crevice Cave to Storm Mountain to Flyaway Forest to Mystic Crater through Crater Cave to Devil's Sea through Seafloor Cave to Sacred Field through Aegis Cave to Concealed Ruins through Echo Cave to Miracle Sea to Shallow Beach 

Nothing connects passed here.

Dragon age: Grandpa, almost Grand Grandpa

Age from hatching: 2,000

Gender: Male

Magic: Dream/Nightmare. He has the ability to reveal someone's strongest fear. Sucking them into a world contorted from their absolute terrors. So much so it can lead someone in tears and his dreams are so lifelike, someone can feel what happens to them. If one is burning, they feel the horrors if burns, the smell of smoke and rotting flesh... As well, he can make pleasant dreams... And trap someone into a pleasant slumber for all eternity if they do not wish to escape such a wonderful dream. His breathe can be a black fire, or a strange mist that lulls someone to sleep. He's powerful enough to place cursed over countries, rain hellfire, and make some dreams a reality

Stands around 6'8. He has red eyes and horns curving from his head and scales along his ears. Almost always wears a black hooded cloak.

Personality: A pretty odd elder dragon and a powerful one at that, he pretty much does what he wants. Seeming neutral when it comes to humans and dragons. He still attends the dragon festival, and is known to be a bit mysterious if not a bit mischievous. He seems to play by his own rules, messing with others in his own way. He gives information of both dragons and humans but not enough to be threatening to either race, seeming to do both harm and good for both. He loves eating humans, and used to burn down villages in his younger years, but now he seems content relaxing a bit more and getting free meals from Dragon Churches. Enjoys playing with riddles and tricks and messing with younger dragons, and he can come off as mean and cruel sometimes, until he actually helps out which can often confuse others of his intentions. Can sometimes show a strange kindness to others. He's often playful and teasing. Although he seems to keep a cool head most of the time, he does tend to be possessive in what he considers his and youngsters seeming not to realize that fact.

Background: Draken's hatching took around 1,000 years, and he aged to adult at fifty. In his younger years of teens and as a adult, he often went and burned down villages, gulping down humans as he went. Humans being his favored taste. His attacks calmed though and soon he stopped at the age of 100 when he turned into a grandfather. The humans of the Dragon Church made a deal with him, serving as one of their gods and in return he would receive peace and meals. Even those of humans that were meant to be executed. He agreed, deciding relaxing would be good for him. The dragon hunters took interest of a dragon so nearby, but could not use the old dragon for their needs, being protected by the church. So instead they wished for his assistance against his own kind. Draken sort of agreed, telling what sorts of dragons they caught were and the rules, but never revealed the location of any dragon homes or the dragon tribe, frustrating the dragon hunters with his little of help. Though when a dragon does attack where the town he is currently residing in, he will go out and protect it, so the hunters have little to complain about. In turn though, Draken attends the festivals and reveals some information he has on humans to his own kind, but also not revealing too much. Seeming to find this almost a amusing game. Or simply another test for those he meets. Who can say?

He has a few hatchlings in his years, one of them being Damia.

Recently: He sort of helped out the captured dragons. And also possibly helped put them there. Who bloody knows.</div></div></div>"

His magic consists of the mixture of the two elements, fire and water. He can breathe either element or both to create a steam breathe. He can manipiluate fire or water into floating swords, using them against any opponent he has. His water magic has the ability to heal wounds and even suck out poisons.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Dragon looks:</span></span>
<img src=""http://i57.tinypic.com/2ze07xh.jpg""/>
Large scar going from his right eye to the top of his right wing all the way across it. His scales are colorful, depending on how one looks at him, the scales can change from red, blue and purple. He's quite large, his body as long as 400 feet and being as tall as 500 feet. Two long dark colored curved horns curving slightly upwards. Has fur along his head, back and tail with the frills.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Compact looks:</span></span>
<img src=""http://i58.tinypic.com/8w9pck.jpg""/>
Large scar going from his right eye down to his hip. Usually wears a light gray scarf to help cover his face. He has bright glowing purple eyes, and scales over his shoulders and chest. Stands around 5'8. Has long red hair going down to the middle of his back, though it's pulled in a neat low ponytail while the rest of his hair is messy and a little spikey, covering his oddly purple eyes usually.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Aster is more of a reclusive dragon, preferring to be by himself. He doesn't talk much and acts pretty cold most of the time, but in reality he is pretty lonely and has a kind heart. He's caring for his fellow dragons and most living things, even humans whom he's terrified of. He gets a bit bitter if someone makes fun of his flying. He's pretty cold to strangers, though is mostly nervous and shy to both humans and dragons alike. He enjoys swimming or just relaxing in a grassy field.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></span>
Aster was a egg when he lost his parents. They lived in a secluded cave in the mountains, but they were killed by a ambush of human hunters. Taking the egg in their possession, they traveled to a human village, though they accidentally dropped it down a cliff. Luckily, the egg did not break, but their was a large crack on the right side of it. It had been a long 800 years since his parents birthed his egg, and it only took five more after his egg was taken.

After he was hatched, it was noticed he had a large scar over his right eye and over his wing. A sign of the consequence of dropping him as a egg. The humans didn't mind since it most likely meant he would not be able to fly away from them. They kept him chained, and had him on display just to show what they accomplished. Poked him with shock sticks to make him obey and cracked spiked whips. How heroic they were for slaughtering a family and taking a mere newborn as a slave.

As time went by, the young dragon tried calling, roaring for help, but none ever came from his own kind. They could not either hear him or they simply did not want to risk it. He did not know. Chained to the ground, and as much as he tried, his injured right wing would not carry him off he ground and it ached since the day he hatched.

When his one hundred days hit, he turned into his compact form, and the chained collar was choking him. His compact form was bigger at the time and it wasn't a great moment for Aster as he just about suffocated. Just then though, a human boy perhaps in his young teen years came to him. Unlocking the chain. There was no time to ask questions as his odd savior quickly dragged him out, putting a cloak over the dragon. His captors did not seem to recognize him as their pet dragon, so they ignored them.

For a couple of days, Aster stayed with the boy in a cave in the woods. The boy called himself Zafine. At the time Aster didn't have a name and merely shook his head in response, unsure how to exactly react to this situation. This boy was human, the creature that had tormented him all his life, but also his savior. Zafine decided to call him Aster, since his dragon form shimmered like a star. The boy then explained that Aster needed to go to the Dragon Tribe, where he'd be safe. Since Aster could not fly, he'd just have to walk in his compact form.

Aster wanted to question how the boy knew so much, but couldn't find the words. So he left, journeying to the Dragon Tribe. It took perhaps ten years, in which his dragon form was about a teen.

When he arrived they welcomed him, though the other young dragons made fun of him for being flightless. Pointing out that even the wingless skinny dragons could fly. Thankfully the elders were kind to him, one even helping him fix up his wing as best as they could. Even though, he's not the best flier and is prone to fall if it gets too exhausted.

After five years of living with the Dragon Tribe and learning the customs of his kind as well as he a better flier, he found himself unsure where to go next. It felt odd being among fellow Dragons since he was not born amongst them, yet he feared humans for what they did to him. Yet at the same time he kept thinking back on that young human boy whom had saved his life. Deciding to risk it, he flew back to where Zafine had nursed him to health at that cave. Of course, the boy was not there, instead it was a full grown man. Age twenty-three in human years, a time in their prime apparently. 

Zafine was glad to see the beautiful dragon again, and greeted him with the same warmth he had showed as a boy. Aster found that he wasn't as afraid of this human... Perhaps the only human he did not fear. Staying at that cave, Aster lived mostly in his compact form, in fear that if any other human discovered him, they would kill him. His human comrade agreed, explaining that many hunters would adore his scales and sharp teeth and claws.

A couple years passed and everyday Zafine would come visit the dragon. This was the only person Aster found he could properly talk with, even smile and laugh. They talked about how humans and dragons lived, their fears, their dreams.... Until Aster found himself falling into a great sin. Falling in love with a human. It was quite ironic really, living the thing he feared... Yet Zafine was different from his tormentors. He was kind, and full of life, even went out of his way to make the dragon laugh.

It was wrong he knew, humans lived such tiny lives in comparison and their magic was much too small to produce a dragon egg... But he couldn't help it. He never felt lonely with this man around. So he accepted the fate of simply watching the human grow old, being with him until his last breathe. Aster chose to stay and watch as Zafine eventually found his own love with a beautiful human woman. Although painfully, he watched happily at his friend's happiness. After a few years, when Zafine was of thirty five years of age, he had his own children, a boy and a girl. Zafine happily showed Aster his family, and the children loved playing wih the dragon, though the wife was more wary.

Eight years after the children were born, something grave happen. Waking up in the middle of the night, Aster saw fire coming from the village. Worried for his human friends he went into the village in his compact form, only to discover Zafine's home burnt into ashes, scorch marks everywhere. He found the bodies of Zafine, his wife, and boy child dead and burnt. Their daughter crying over them.

At first, Aster was shocked at the sight before he heard a mighty roar in the skies. Looking up he saw a huge adult dragon raining hellfire upon the terrorized village. Shock and surprise soon passed into utter rage. Transforming into his true self, the young Dragon flew into a furious rage and confronted the other dragon in battle.

It was a difficult battle considering he was still a teen and he sustained quite a bit of injuries, he managed to drive the other dragon off. After it was over, he took Zafine's surviving daughter and flew off to a safer place. At the age of fifty he became a adult and left to live on his own by a lake, where he raised the human girl until she was old enough to be on her own, before leaving her in a human village to live amongst her own kind. Although she disputed the idea, Aster refused, insisting she was better off with other humans before leaving.

Over the years, he does check how the family of the human whom he once loved are fairing, though he is mostly forgotten, the humans he knew long dead.

Recently, he was captured by human hunters, but rescued.</div></div></div>"

Still being a child, Damia cannot do too much magic. She manages to make the basic dragon breath. The left head breathes a light green sparkling mist that gives a calming aroma that has minor healing factors and blooms flowers. Her right head breathes a more foul odar that can be suffocating if one breathes it in too long, as well as turns plants that breathe in enough into a more intellectual plant creatures.

Damia is two headed dragon with a body like a snake and large set of wings just two feet below the split between the heads. She is a long dragon, about 30 feet long, but she isn't the biggest of dragons.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Compact looks</span></span>
<img src=""http://cache.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/439661-bigthumbnail.jpg""/>
She stands around 5'0 and her scales are on her forehead, which she covers with her head band.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Damia is a bit of a odd sort, having a slight split personality. Most of the time, she's energetic and friendly to others. Eager to meet and greet with her fellow dragons amongst the tribe. Other times she is challenging and even violent, eager to to grow and be a mighty full grown dragon. She's adventurous, and enjoys exploring around the lands, but does not stray too far from the Dragon Tribe, not completely willing to meet with any confrontations like humans. Her heads tend to represent her inner thoughts. He left being the more friendly, do what's right, the right head being more ruthless. For example, with humans the left wouldn't want to hurt them, thinking maybe some are good, while the right would wonder how they would eat and notes they should rip them apart. It's like having the constant angel and devil on the shoulder banter.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></span>
Damia was hatched into the tribe in the rookery amongst many other Dragon eggs. Her parents often being adventurous and flying off into other lands, meeting with other Dragon Tribes. Whenever they returned, they would share glorious tales of their adventures. Explaining different cultures some tribes had, as well as the intriguing news on the humans. Humans evolving with such odd knowledge with their technology and culture of their little wars. Some tales shining light upon them, some making them out to be savage monsters.

The other dragonlings teased her a bit for her two heads, since multi headed dragons were a bit rarer, but she either ignored them or snapped at them to be quiet. She dreams of being flying out on her own like her parents, but for now she settles with bugging the older dragons in telling her tales. Especially during the Dragon Festival.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background &amp; Personality</span></span>
Myrtle is a outgoing and adventurous individual who loves to travel in the skies. She likes deeming herself to be the best pilot around as well as the best one to fix up a skyship. One could call her a bit weird, since she often talks fast mostly about tech and gets overly excited in anything related to it and flying. She's a bit bold, not afraid to get into peoples faces or to drag them into something. Overall though, she's kind hearted and is willing to help out others in whatever way she can. Even if her way may not be the correct way. Tends to joke around a lot.

As a little girl, she's always dreamed of being in the skies. Her grand mother telling stories of a mighty creature called a dragon whom had raised her until she was old enough to be on her own. How it was to fly through the skies with the wind blowing through her hair. Although finding a dragon and flying by them would be a dream come true, Myrtle wanted to be able to fly on her own as well. So she studied hard in the city when she was just a young teen in engineering and piloting a skyship. Working hard enough to become a professional at the young age of sixteen. But her quest for knowledge never ceases as she researches ways to make skyships better, and to improve human transportation. What better way then to research dragons?

Myrtle was working one day, pondering on plans before remembering her grandmothers tale on the Dragon. She told her tales that there were several different kinds of dragons. Some using wings to fly, some even just using magic to fly, though she herself had never seen them. If this was true, then perhaps there could be a way to improve skyships. Though humans had not nearly close enough magic talent to a dragon, some specialized in it and perhaps researching the creatures would overall assist in human lives. So she set off to search for the dragon her grandmother had lived with. A difficult search indeed, but thanks to some descriptions on the creatures habits and looks, as well as a skyship... She eventually managed to find him.

Recently, she was one of the humans who helped rescue the captured dragons.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Plot Idea</span></span>
For years, humans have been living well off their flying machines for travel as well as using weapons to hunt, but their resources are a bit dwindling, making it more difficult to use their machines efficiently. Myrtle hopes to learn from Dragons, the creatures who are long lived and most likely hold the greatest knowledge in many manners such as magic, a potential resource that could be used to assist powering the machines. As well as possible trading partners. But to know someone of such a different culture, one must be full in it. What better way to learn but by being right in the middle of dragon social life and customs revealed in a festival? And if dragons wish, they could come and do the same in the human world. Of course hiding their identity since humans freak out a lot. Good luck to Myrtle hiding dragons in the city though.</div></div></div>"

Dragon age: Adult

Age from hatching: 450 years

Gender: Male

Magic: He manipulates fire, able to create balls of flames around him or usually when enrage having it burst forth from the ground. He also of course breaths it but whats different is that the flames he shoots out of his mouth are blue oddly, meaning it's hotter then what is normally expected able to melt most of anything besides the strongest of metals. He also has a slight ability to understand wolves, not greatly though, just some things here and there.
His weakness with his ability is that the colder he gets, the less likely he will be able to use his fire manipulation. 

Dragon looks:

<img src=""https://33.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mc3zb4ApmO1rn9ge0o2_1280.png""/>

Compact looks:
If one was able to get close enough and mess with his hair, they would notice two small horns coming out of his head. There are scales along the spine of his compact forms back and if one got close enough to his eyes they would realize that they aren't entirely circular and has another set of eyelids.
<img src=""http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/870ebc2cbac6400f6f94a699add5572b/http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n164/Mikah_Ver_Leth/Myalltimerpc.jpg""/>

Personality: He's a somewhat impassive dragon at times, but despite how he may act, underneath it all he is a rather compassionate dragon who is devoted to protecting friends and family. He has a fondness of learning and a habit of hording ancient texts that he might of found on his ventures or got from now lost tribes. He doesn't back down from a challenge easily and can be stubborn over some topics he feels strong about.

Background: Born as the son of Sinh and Andraste, he grew up to be an adult within fifty years after his hatching. He was from the second clutch of eggs of the two somewhat ancient dragons so he has a rather large family, both older and younger then he. He was a rather odd dragon, born with two pairs of wings and rather abundant amount of fur going down his spine which only seemed to increase in amount as he aged. Once becoming an adult, rather finding a mate he decided more on traveling the world a bit and see the wonders it held as well as learn more about the odd race called humans, he was quite curious about them and wished to understand them unlike others. So after the ceremony he was off on his venture, traveling for two hundred years, visiting cities that are now gone or tribes of humans who had since past away. He has since found his own personal home which is away from dragons and humans where he keeps his horde of items that he has collected in quite a rather organized matter. In his ventures he has seen many things and has learned humans are perhaps just as complex as dragons are.

Since his return for the next festival, he shares many of his tales of adventure he had in that two hundred year world trip. He met many friends who he watch grow and pass away. Despite how sad it was to loose those friends he knows death is part of life and most creatures don't share the long life dragon's have. He came across many adventurers as well as a few wolf packs that he remains in contact with through their newer generations.</div></div>

Compact looks: 
Basically shown in the image itself. Her reptilian like eyes, slight horns on the front of head, clawed fingers. along with the odd fact she has a tail that she tries her best to keep hidden from view.

Personality: She's a rather social dragon that has no problem making friends with just about anyone she can. Though she appears intimidating and her magic could be somewhat considered dangerous, she is perhaps one of the nicest dragons you could come across. She hardly gets angered and tries to make those around her happy to the best of her abilities. She has a fascination with unique things be it odd glowing stones or other dragons.

Background: Lucatiel hatched and from the moment she hatched her parents knew something wasn't entirely right. When she entered the world, the world was dark and the world has always been dark. She was born blind, and not only that but her lower body hadn't formed properly as it should of. She had also hatched later then the other eggs in her clutch, her parents had nearly given up hope that the egg would ever hatch. When the egg did hatched, they then feared she wouldn't survive long but she pulled through and grew but she was entirely alone most of the time, her parents wanted to make sure she was safe and grew up healthy so few other dragons ever saw her and those that did tended to stay away due to her odd form. She didn't mind, growing up on her own. Her family was all the friends she needed. It was one older brother especially then she loved, that was her older brother Sealameet who upon seeing his sister, decided to help her when he could. He aided her whenever he was back from his journeys, helping her with her blindness. Over time she could make out shapes but color still alluded her. It wasn't until she gained her compact form could she see but even then that site hasn't always been the greatest.
She has remained near the tribe most of her life due to it being a safe haven for her. In her spare time she creates crystal artwork to entertain the younger generation.</div></div>

Dragon age: Grandfather

Age from hatching: 1313

Gender: Male

Magic: Poison breath, it looks similar to flames but it is green in color and doesn't burn the foes but rather suffocates them of air or if the person is lucky to survive suffocation they die slowly of the poison the breathed in.

Dragon looks: Has a third eye in the middle of his forehead
<img src=""https://40.media.tumblr.com/03878348b2ad87db3bbc4387a5760bd5/tumblr_ngsijcYRaV1skceqmo1_1280.jpg""/>

Compact looks: Scales on back of neck, dragon eyes, and nails that are claws.

<img src=""http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs43/f/2009/112/f/3/Fantasy___Human_Gunner_by_reaper78.jpg""/>

Personality: He's somewhat of a loner preferring solitude over being in large crowds though he is trying to be better around his own kind since his younger siblings seem to think he needs a life outside of his travels and perhaps a special someone which he doesn't understand. He's rather factual and blunt in most things.

Background: Born from the first clutch of his parents, he is perhaps the oldest in the family of his. His life has mostly been spent in solitude or in the presence of other dragons as he mostly avoided the town and villages of men and other creatures having no interest in them and feeling it best to let them be after everything that has happened between them. Unfortunately the two living relatives that always come to the festival try to drag him into trouble as well into the human realm which is the only reason he made himself a human form.
The big oddity of him having a third eye on the middle of his forehead is considered a blessing in his family, showing his bloodline to one of his ancestor's who bore a single red eye in the middle of his forehead himself. 
(this is basically where the eye is located if you are wondering, just watch the trailer below to see what I'm talking  about:

about 5'8"", and albino. Has no right eye.
quick sketch without mask:
<img src=""http://oi62.tinypic.com/2chnq00.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Background &amp; Personality:</span> Ezekiel's passionate, and has always put his heart and soul into what he does. He considers his job the best thing a human can do with their life. He's a serious and influential man, and thanks to his method of taking small steps at a time, has practically everyone in his church on board with his plans for the hunters. Many people outside the church consider him more fit to be a cult leader than a priest. Not that he's bad at his job, as he's a good person to come to for comfort and advice. He's always busy and doesn't appreciate it when people try to beat around the bush, preferring to get a situation addressed and taken care of ASAP. He cares so little for his own life that it can be worrying, as he's prepared to throw it away in an instant if his god commands it. Instead, he places his attention on the members of the church, namely the orphans and the staff. 

Ezekiel had a normal childhood life in a devout family with an older brother and a younger sister, all of them home schooled about their god and dragons, and the church itself. When he became ten, his parents gave him up to the church with the understanding that he would be trained to become a priest. The training was rigorous, starting with studying, going to training, eventually going to become a caretaker for the shrines and the responsibility of making new ones. At 13 Ezekiel, along with other servants of the church, were arrested under charges that were never fully explained to him, only to be freed by Draken. He doesn't bring it up anymore, and the most he knows about the situation is that the old king pissed off his lord. When he was 21, against advice from his elders, he got in a fight against a hunter. This resulted in the loss of his right eye, though with his mask people tend to not notice it. Around that age he also had an odd, subtle relationship with a member of the congregation, but broke it off in a few months after deciding he needed to devote his entire being to his god. While making shrines isn't something he personally needs to do anymore, he still does, enjoying the process of crafting them. The church has a few orphans, and he treats them as if they're his own children. One of the orphans, Mattias, is his nephew.

Name: Abraxas, ""Man's Bane""

Age: 50
 
Personality: Abraxas is a mysterious entity, who is a conflicted creature. He can be animalistic at times with little reasoning and is aggressive, preforming acts of violence quite frequently. He is naturally a malevolent creature but can be reasoned with. Due to his imprisonment he has a deep hatred for humans but knows nothing of the outside world. He has a corrupting influence on magic and those that get too close.

Looks: <img src=""http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs45/i/2009/148/9/8/Kuntimong__Demon_Lord_by_Gandharvasstudio.jpg""/>

Alternative looks: Has none yet.

Background: He was born in a place far away, to parents who abandoned their offspring. His siblings were either eaten or killed within the first couple of days, for only the strong survived. By chance he was set upon by the hunters not a week old, yet already as large as a big dog. They captured him, as he was not yet dangerous enough to pose a threat to challenge their safety. Abraxas soon learned the cruelness of the humans as they frequently lashed out at their captives, deeming them inferior, lower then dragons. He wondered what a dragon was, and if it could be eaten with one gulp.

Months later, and now as large as a man they arrived at the prison in the darkness of night. The journey itself was harsh and his cage was covered with a black cloth to hide him from the sun and prying eyes. Every time he tried to escape his confinement, he found that the bars burned his skin at the lightest touch but it didn't stop him from trying. Days became weeks, weeks turned into months and the passing of time blurred into years. Throughout those years he grew into a formidable demon, the size of an upright grizzly bear, looking down upon the guards always. His brute strength made him deemed dangerous, and instead of moving him to a different cell, they built a larger, more durable one around the old. That was until his metamorphism began around the age of 25.

It would last for another 25 years, changing his body slightly, making him become infused with dark magic. This magic was of flame and shadow, and deadly to those that would incur his wrath. The shadow was about him at all times, and the flame he could call upon at will. It engulfed him, wrapping around his body like a blanket, free flowing. It was dark and it suited him for upon his awakening, he found things in ruins, the prison that once contained him in flames. He broke free from his old confinement and clawed his way up to the surface. The light blinded his glowing blue eyes and when they adjusted he saw a strange place, full of rock towers and thick layers of fog. He walked away from the rubble, quickly coming to a street full of humans and their devices. His revenge had begun, yet in this world he did not know, there were creatures more dangerous then humans..

Did they escape the hunters prison?: Yes</div>"

Age from hatching: 433

Gender: Male

Magic: Jeonbae can create as well as control lightning and lightning strikes and arcs. Because of this, he is one of the only dragons able to fly in a thunderstorm without getting struck by lightning. During a thunderstorm, or if one is nearby, he can call down a lightning bolt at will at any place within a few kilometers of where he is. If a thunderstorm isn't around, he can create lightning but it wouldn't be as strong as normal. In addition, with some effort, he can control electrical pulses of the nervous system within humans and some dragons, but only while in contact with them. As well as being able to control thunderclouds, he can, in a way, look through nearby thunderclouds and gain a hazy, bird's-eye view on the world below. However, it is difficult for him to control the way electricity travels in water and thus may be able to electrocute himself in some situations, albeit without much harm. An unusual aspect about his powers is that Jeonbae has learned to control it in some situations by humming.

His arms are covered in white fur similar to his dragon form, as well as a plate of hard bone and long fingernails, usually covered by his sleeves, as well as a pair of two small, almost unnoticeable horns often covered by a hat or bandana on his head. His eyes are purple with slitted pupils similar to cat's eyes, so he often wears dark glasses. Is often seen carrying a worn wooden staff.</div></div>

Personality: Jeonbae is friendly around almost everyone, often contributing to whatever people might be talking about. In front of most people, he laughs a lot and tends to joke sometimes, and is supportive. However, he can be very analytical and even critical sometimes, noticing faults in someone, but usually chooses to overlook them and be accepting of what they are. He's a quick thinker, making him good in arguments and debates against others. While he is able to forgive others, he can hold negative feelings for a long time but normally can let go after some time. It may be hard to gain his trust, but if you can, he can be the most loyal dragon you can know. He can also get excited about sometimes superficial things in a childish way, especially rare items. When asked nicely to do something within reason, he is obliging, but he hates people who are clingy. So much. 

Background: Jeonbae was born in a small clutch of eggs in the middle of a large, flat plain, only three including himself. Despite what often happens, the three dragons bonded together well, forming a friendship that would last for a long time. His parents often lived outside the nearby tribe, preferring the open space of the fields. However, unbeknownst to the family, hunters had started scouting the area. One day, a group happened upon the family, and notified everyone else. Thankfully, they escaped before the hunting party could come to kill the dragons. The family moved into the tribe permanently after that. For a while, he was a bit of an outcast because he was born outside. To others, it didn't look like he minded too much, but it hurt him a little. Later, when Jeonbae became a teen at post-hatching age 50, he became interested the tribe's economy and trading. Soon enough, he was contributing to the small economy that existed between dragon tribes. For a long time he would ferry goods between tribes, often spending years away from his home. One day, when he was flying between two tribes that were a little far apart, he was spotted and targeted by a human city on the ground below. Unfortunately, he was hit by one of the city's war machines, and forced to land rather close to the city. The humans captured him out of fear of retribution, and for several months he was jailed, unable to escape. During his time there, he managed to glean a little of human trading culture and became immensely interested in the possibility of trading between the tribes and the humans. Eventually he managed to escape and run back to the tribe he was supposed to go to. He was treated for lasting wounds, but he never told anyone about his new dream. When he returned to his home tribe after a long time, he requested permission from the GreatGrandmother of the tribe if he could trade some goods between dragons and humans. She reluctantly agreed, but under the condition that it's secret. For another hundred and fifty years, he's been trading with human cities around the area, sometimes branching out to the north or south, returning to the tribe once or twice every few years. When he passed the age test to become a Grandpa, he was required to stay around his home-tribe in order to protect it and fulfill. However, by then he had amassed a decent fortune in goods, and has continued to trade with cities close by. As well as trading, he has made sure to report of any plans the human cities had against the dragon tribes to the GreatGrandmother.</div></div>

<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 356 (since capture)</div>
<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></div> 

Largely neutral towards humans, but even though he was captured he is able to recognize that only some dislike him and will treat them kindly. Ocotl speaks slowly and carefully, if he speaks at all, which is rarely. However, he moves quickly and sharply, often being impulsive in movement only, despite his normally meditative nature. He attempts to avoid conflict whenever possible, but his cold personality can sometimes rub people the wrong way, and he ends up having to fight. Surprisingly, he has a rather dark sense of humor, even though he has almost never made a joke. He enjoys the company of other creatures, and doesn't mind being the center of attention. He'll make silent suggestions about where to go, but prefers to stay out of human affairs. Ocotl is helpful to a fault, often never hesitating to assist any sort of creature without questioning it, sometimes landing him into trouble or danger. He values kindness in a companion, and if you can convince him of it, he will be loyal to you for a long time.

He can take almost any tree-like humanoid form he wishes, different colored leaves, different types of leaves, patterned bark, hanging fruits (sometimes edible), as well as height to a certain degree.

However, he cannot discard or change his form at will once it has been made, unless it is destroyed or burned, at which point his spirit can inhabit a tree and create a new form using its energy, but destroying the tree in the process. The older or larger the tree, the more powerful he is in physical strength. The form does not naturally decompose, as it is technically alive. If he does not regain a form quickly after having his previous one destroyed, his spirit will be easy to capture, or it will eventually dissipate and he will die.

<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></div> Ocotlantli was created by an eccentric but very skilled Great-Grandfather Dragon many years ago with incredible power over nature in order to serve as a bodyguard and protector for him. Existing as a spirit of nature, and freely able to change forms within nature at will. Eventually, he was captured and forced into a tree, the dragon bending and shaping the tree to look like a human. He was very violent at first, the Dragon often having to restrain him using his magic. The Dragon treated him with the utmost kindness, and in time Ocotl calmed down, growing kind and loyal like his master. Over several years, the Dragon created two more creatures like Ocotl, named Ocotlihuian, and Ocotlipaquil. 

One day, the Dragon was set upon by a massive group of hunters, having been tipped off by a local village. They managed to surprise the Dragon, but the three warriors rushed to his aid. The battle lasted for several hours, and Ocotlihuian and Ocotlipaquil were overwhelmed by the hunters sheer force, their forms burnt to ash. Ocotlantli managed to stay strong for longer, but he too was burned up, and his master killed after the long battle, his power depleted from the long battle. Unable to stay as a spirit, he consumed a tree and created a new form for himself using it. With Ocotlihuian's and Ocotlipaquil's whereabouts unknown, and the Dragon defeated, he wandered forests and landscapes, exploring human society. However, he quickly learned that his presence was feared, and often had to take new forms, as he did not understand that humans did not like him, and got burned up.

While on the outskirts of a small town one day, a young woman found him, and fearful, went to go tell the town's marshal. Just as she was about to run away, she stopped, and went back to him, becoming friends with him. After spending several weeks being friends with the woman, spending afternoons talking with her and learning about the human world, she introduced him to the townspeople. They were scared and angry at first at his strange appearance, but after some convincing by the girl, they accepted him and even started being kind to him, like the Dragon did so many years ago, realizing that humans aren't so bad after all. Some villagers taught him basic combat, and he became skilled with the sword and quarterstaff very quickly, but he ultimately disliked using them. He left the village many years ago, but still visits sometimes, preferring to wander the forests, hills, and mountains instead and discover as many new things about the human and dragon world as possible.

He had recently been captured by the Hunter's Guild, his personality being ideal for a servant or laborer, about four months prior to now.</div></div></div>"

Background &amp; Personality: He has not the friendliest looks on his face. In his young days, he was a hunter. He lost a leg that was replaced with a mechanical leg. His arm need support to be able to move it freely. It was a dragon and a vampire who temporally joined forces to repel the hunters, that gave him the injury that made him go into pension. It was a injury on his spine. It got healed enough to allow him to walk, but prolonged standing running and similar things are near impossible or joined with heavy pain.

He can work with the hunters and point the dragons out. But his ideas about the hunters arent the purest either. Thinking their plotting and methods are at times to soft on the beast. That some join just for the status and name, and another corrupt. 

Plot Idea: Will be the bartender of the bar where the dragons are. Will be extremely not pleased if a fight breaks out in his bar.</div></div></div>"

Personality:
She is in her rebellious age. She would do anything to make the old dragons snarl at her, only to then remind them that every dragon has the right to live how they want.

She kept on demanding until one day her magic didnt show she took a deep breath in holding it in and suffocated a human to death. She didnt understood what just happened but she demanded from the others to give her stuff.
And they did what made her extremely happy. Her compact form slowly matured until she wasnt a young woman, and she turned the church priest into her obeying slaves. She was a baby with magic she felt the need to go somewhere, and the day the hunters came demanding the priest to kill her she killed the hunter and fly fast away. She arrived to the main tribe from and jumped to the age of teen. But being surrounded with so many dragons made her fear it.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 24
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Keepa comes off as a charismatic sweetheart, interested in others' doings and especially human culture. Kind and elegant in their tact to the point of bordering the uncanny valley with their often lack of reaction to hostility and hatred. Its suspected that this is mostly a ruse to lure in prey which ended up being defining characteristics of their personality out of instinct and habit. When threatened, Keepa shows the stark two-face of his coined behavious; violent and vindictive, determined to extinguish even the potential of ongoing threat to themselves and whatever they may care about. As a dragon, this is the sort of behavior that gives them a bad name. As a demon, such behavior classifies Keepa as 'wild', a shunned ranking of caste from his homeland which regards him as predictable as a starved, crazed dog. As a human, hes seen as a liar and a murderer. In all reality, he would rather be left alone, although his nature and physiology compels him to seek out life. He isn't bad, per se, just built poorly for the civilized world...or built <span class=""bb-i"">perfectly</span> for it. The judgement is mostly left to interpretation.
 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Magic-like Abilities</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">-</span> Keepa has a refined control of life energy, mostly for the purpose of consumption and personal perseverance. The process is similar to a leech, although the rate is controllable on some levels. With a max range of about five meters and a max effectiveness with skin-contact, affected individuals feel a slight sense of exhaustion which grows from prolonged exposure (1 hour feels like 2, 2 hours feel like 5). This can be suppressed at will, although Keepa lives off of others, parasitically and the thought of stopping doesn't often occur. This can be applied to all living beings, though it functions considerably slower on plants then it does other living creatures.

<span class=""bb-b"">=</span> While absorbed energy is added to their mass, it <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> possible for Keepa to reverse-burn his own mass into a subject for the purpose of healing even nearly fatal wounds. However, this consumes a considerable amount of mass in order to 'sew' life back into the subject, piecing them back together or replacing lost flesh. Wounds healed in such ways are stained with jagged black scars that eventually fade over the course of a week to a month depending on the severity. With the mass required to heal severe wounds, Keepa <span class=""bb-i"">may not</span> be able to fully heal a subject without taking on considerable mass from outside sources in the process. This is a procedure which has not been often implemented and is highly inefficient.

His claim was his soul against my sword, that he could strike me down and I would never again stand without even a single scratch upon his armor. Foolish as I was, so eager to eat souls that I~

Oh, come now, don't ruin the ending before it had even happened! A threat? Why, I would <span class=""bb-i"">never</span> stand a chance against your human engineering. Look at me now. What threat could I pose, chained to a wall in broad daylight for <span class=""bb-i"">all</span> to see, with only your painted white line to entertain on the off hours. You might see a line, <span class=""bb-i"">I</span> see a wall that divides two people. And what would I have to gain? I <span class=""bb-i"">belong</span> here, after all. On that, we can both agree, yes? I...deal...with your human prisoners, and in turn...well, I actually have no idea what you all get out of this.

Maybe you just like me~
I cannot entirely entertain an ideas as to why, though... *sigh*
Compliments!? Oh my, maybe today <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> a good day. You're nothing like the others that tried beating me or flaying me for scales I do not have. Pretty smart; pretty <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> smart~ 
Just a joke, just a joke! I only figured you would like a compliment in return. Oh, come on, don't leave!

The subject has repeatedly insisted they be called an array of different names, all of which come with various backgrounds and variations of cooperation. They have settled on 'Keepa' now, although the staff refer to them simply as 'The Liar'
Liar was picked up on the outskirts of the Gold Village after reports of bodies found in alleys. Most were armed and considered either muggers or the like, but concern arose with the note that none of the bodies possessed significant wounds and had simply perished from apparent heart failure. Regardless of their crimes, it was official that we had a situation on our hands. Liar was later recovered in the middle of its apparent feeding on another victim, subdued with UV lights and transported to the prison before it could recombine.

Age: 315
Personality: Emotion seems to be a foreign object to Milhoro, as he rarely expresses anything. He's an efficient worker, and is easily capable of doing his own work. Rather than get his own hands dirty, however, he prefers to take more of a passive role if it can be helped. He is highly judgmental, especially to other demons; he can't have the superior species going around as a joke, after all. He talks only when he finds it necessary to do so, so it can be hard to learn about him, and nearly impossible to learn everything from him alone. Even his gender isn't confirmed, and most have just taken to referring to it as he. With all of this, he does have a sense of humor - Dark, dry, and sarcastic, something many don't expect. Milhoro enjoys crucifying and/or impaling.

Background: He remembers his home as being in the center of a fissure, but beyond that he can't recall. For the first one hundred years of his life he was a vagabond, wandering without much of a purpose. 
Eventually he began to live in a town of his own kind, a nobody in the masses. Said town was corrupt, disorganized, unstable; Milhoro hated it all. 50 years passed with what order the place had failing, and he staged a coup, taking control over the city. Over the next 100 years he broke his stoic nature, becoming a violent and feared being to solidify his reign over his home. Anyone that so much as looked at him wrong was nailed to a cross or impaled, with the bodies placed either around the city or in the front of his home. 
Things began to settle he he found himself with time on his hands once again, and decided to use it to look into other cities. His impatience of humans and their ignorance eventually caught up with him, as hunters managed to capture him nearby Gold City. During his time Milhoro remained more placid than most, and opted to observe everything the hunters could throw at him, along with the humans themselves. He had been held captive for 15 years, and he feels he's learned all he needs to know. 
Did they escape the hunters prison? Yes

He corrupts the ground he walks on. The greenery dies and nothing else can grow, and it causes harm to living beings. Marks usually present themselves as burns. The ability has grown to his hands as he's matured. Along with typical holy items, Milhoro's especially weak to precious and semi-precious stones.</div>"

Name: Lynx
Age: 561
Personality: He is really interested in human and dragon life. He always studies them from a distance, sometimes sketching them in his notebook. He is quite shy and elusive, and no one ever sees him in his human form.

He's not much of a fan of toying with humans for fun because it scares them away. He would rather look at them from a distance. If someone sees him, he changes into the form of a creature, usually a Cheshire Cat. He sometimes changes human form to wander villages and look at the markets to see what humans buy and eat.

He's not much of a talker. If he's in a village whilst in his human form and someone tries to engage a conversation with him, he usually just nods his head and smiles. This is because he is nervous whenever he is around humans, and he doesn't want to let any information escape him.

Looks:<img src=""https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/89/60/25/896025fe147478528d0a777332ef7ba9.jpg""/>

Lynx in his natural form is mostly just an apparition with red eyes. Black smoke seems to be evaporating from his body. He's usually in his other forms, however, since he thinks his demon form look ugly and boring.

Alternative looks: (Again, most likely will draw pics)

    <span class=""bb-b"">Human:</span> He has long, black hair, with bangs that cover his eyes. He has red eyes and pale skin, and is quite slim. He bought clothes from one of the villages, which is a black shirt, black pants, and a red scarf. He wears sandals as shoes, but mostly he likes to walk barefoot.  

   <span class=""bb-b"">Cheshire Cat:</span> <img src=""http://i58.tinypic.com/bg2008.jpg""/>

(I'm new to digital art, so sorry if it looks bad... :/) 

 His cat form is the size of a normal cat. He's about 2 feet in length not including his tail, and about a foot high when he is standing. He has long soft fur, which is grey and black. He has a bushy tail, which has the same colours. He eyes are blood red, with black slits that make his pupils. His sharp teeth are a shiny white, which complement the darkness of his fur.

(He has other forms as well, like other animals, but they just look like normal; animals. I'll add more if I feel it necessary (like a dragon form) but I'll keep it at that for now.) 

Background: Because of his ability to disguise as animals, he was able to avoid capture from the humans. He actually enjoyed not having virtually no demons around him because they didn't scare off any of the humans whislt he was observing them. Now that the demons have escaped, he's more cautious when spying on people, since they're probably on the look out for any rogue demons surrounding the village.

Lynx has been studying magic from human books for a long time, and has tried to use magic. He has succeeded, but it isn't very good. Other than transforming, he has a natural gift for destruction magic, which destroys anything into bits, although he never has the need to use it. He hopes that one day he'll learn repair magic, so if he is ever to accidentally break something, he can fix it back.

Did they escape the hunters prison?: Never was captured in the first place.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 400

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Hazel has a laid-back facade yet impulsive personality, often times leading her into funny situations and will get serious when she needs to. She has a good charisma, and while it is too expressive and dramatic which can often be seen as awkward, eccentric and too heart burning, this is what makes her one of a kind. Hazel was quite obstinate and reckless when she was younger, but over time, she has attained a more cautious attitude towards life, and deals with problems carefully. She is very concerned about his comrades and is truly loyal towards her loved ones, but tends to act differently by using methods that are pragmatic. Also, she has a habit of saying flamed/fire related speeches every now and then.

<span class=""bb-b"">Looks:</span>Hazel dislike seeing the part of herself a flame demon and anything demon related especially her true shape, appearance, and form. Denying every fiber of herself and prefers to stay in her human form. Her human form is a young girl that stands 5'5 ft tall with long black hair and slim yet quite busty built, however; Hazel cannot deceive the mark of herself, her red blood scarlet eyes easily distinguishes her from most humans thus unable to escape the fate of being hunted.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>Born from the center is hot as flames, the hottest it can be; really a place of notorious hot weather, the hunters took Hazel away from her home; as an infant demon she is so advanced that she can understand what the hunters were saying. Red hot tears, the tears of her kin, a certain specie of flamed demons were known for creating tear gems and such tears is vivid for it is just like any other diamonds but a belief claimed by superstitious people that the tear is worth more than any jewel and it possess healing powers. Her kind was captured and tortured to death to shed these tears.

The hunters rather humans to her were nothing more than blind and greedy people who seek nothing more than reaches and as the years past, Hazel blindly serves them for her life in exchange for her own kind. In short, she was subjected into killing her own kind, to the point of convincing that her kind was evil. Hazel showed no remorse in killing her own kind but in some occasion apart of her is crying and feeling pain, killing and killing just for tears of riches, she went through a life worst than the so called ""Hell"" where most demons are believed it to be home but the term of hell in her own case is different, a fate worst than death to the depths of hell is tearing her apart.

One day, she got fed up of it. She rebelled to seek her own freedom and to avenge what was taken from her in spite of her murdering against her own kind. She shed tears that aren't diamonds but tears of anger, agony, hatred, revenge, and love for her adversaries and kin. Becoming what she is today, a walking carnage who slays demons and bad people alike. Yes, she escaped the hunters but huge events await her tale. Hazel had been studying magic to deal with her adversaries, advanced fire magic as well as light magic despite her being a Flame Demon, naturally born with fire abilities but only hellish.</div></div></div>"

Name: Milo Cash

Age: 250

Personality: Milo is very protective of creatures, and is slow to form strong bonds to people but once they are formed it takes a lot to destroy. 

Background: Milo is considered young for a demon of his type. On his home plane, he trained as a ""summoner"" pulling creatures from other planes to do his bidding. Though the creatures always have a chance to resist and do as it wishes. This happened unfortunately when he summoned a dragon, ripped from the ""material"" plane. It rampaged and went about destroying all Milo knew as home, ruining his life. He tried to banish it, and continuously failed until he managed to strike a deal with the dragon. The deal was ""Take me (the dragon) home, and I let what is left of your people live."" Milo carried out the deal, but as he wasn't proficient in portal magic he had to go to the government for help who quickly banished him with the dragon for destroying half of the city. 
He has lived on this plane for only a few months trying to blend into society. 

Did they escape the hunters prison? No

Stands around 7'0
Background &amp; Personality: As a young boy, his village was burned down by a dragon that slaughtered his family. Rage burned through him and he swore he would lead these creatures into extinction. He trained and joined the Sinister Saints at the young age of twelve, working up the ranks to become of the heads. He has killed so many dragons, that he's been able to make different sets of dragon bone armor. As well as harness their magic to make use of. Of course though he wants to lead dragons into extinction, he regrettably allows the guild to perform their curious experiments into making magical weapons as well as a attempt to make dragon riders and to be able to create their own dragons for their uses. He doubts their ideas but follows anyhow, only wanting to kill the beasts.

A man who is very cruel to dragons, viewing them as destructive beasts, he shows little to no mercy towards them. He doesn't care if he had to kill a dragon child to get what he wishes and will torture any dragon as he sees fit. He also hates those who enjoys dragons, including the Dragon Church, believing Dragons have corrupted their minds. Though he is malicious, cruel, and cold darted toward dragons and dragon followers, he seems to be a kind man towards fellow humans and a natural born leader. Helping out those who asks and never seems to ask for favors or money when it comes to helping people.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">Age from hatching:</span> 300

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> 

Shadow Magic
Syrilth can manipulate and produce shadows by will. The shadows produced are able to be utilized in several different ways, allowing for a high level of adaptibility; the shadows are able to be released in freeform, as condensed, or even molded into the shape of a weapon, taking on the properties of said chosen shape.

Ice Magic
Syrilth is able to produce large quantities of ice from her body in order to attack her opponents. With this magic, she is able to quickly form a great variety of ice structures that are suitable for a diverse range of purposes, no matter if the nature of these circumstances require offensive or defensive purposes.

Syrilth would also mix the two magics. She could create a condensed ball of shadows that would explode and have ice shards shooting out of them to the opponent, or also produce a roar incorporating both shadows and ice.

<span class=""bb-b"">Dragon and Compact looks:</span> <img src=""http://www.wallpapersis.com/wallpapers/2013/02/Beautiful-White-Dragon-Girl-Love-Protection-2048x2560.jpg""/> 
A rather small dragon in comparison to other adults, Syrilth stands at 50ft, with black scales below the white fur. Syrilth has a pair of large, black scaled wings, the top part having additional white fur.
The compact takes the form of a 16 year old female human at 5.3ft, and it ages quite slowly. The compact also has black scales from her shoulders down to the elbows, which Syrilth usually covers with long sleeves.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
A quite powerful dragon, Syrilth is quite humble. She's a dragon who would only approach another dragon when necessary and rarely makes friends, except when they approach her. She enjoys both solitary moments and those of company. For her lack of friendliness, she doesn't have that many friends save for a few, but she appreciates that lot. She is an understanding dragon and you could rant about your problems to her, she won't bite. Although if she was angered before or is in an irritable mood, that's not a good course of action. Also, Syrilth likes flying and swimming, they're the two relaxing things that calm her down.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>

Raised in the wild under her parents' care, it took her 100 years to hatch. As a child, she was still taken care of by her parents. They taught her various things- flying, swimming, hunting, controlling and developing her magic, etc. They also instilled morals and values in her. When she had come to love her parents and grown rather fond of them though, they disappeared on her one night, leaving her to fend for herself. They were gone when she woke up. It was saddening and infuriating, but she still understood their intentions. 

She ended up travelling around the world as a growing child, with no clear intention except to explore and find out new places, avoiding the eyes of hunters. She does occasionally come and go from the humans' cities in her compact form. She also met many dragon tribes in her travels, but at one point set up her home in one that she quite liked its location and inhabitants' company. She still travels, but returns back to her home whenever she wants to, and is now a full-grown adult.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span>Shadow and Madness, He is able to solidify, manipulate, and energize shadows, making them into a variety of constructs, be they animate or inanimate, as well as replicate the effects of other elements by making the shadow take on the aspects of it, ex. Shadow lightning. He can also take the shape of a shadow to escape from most, if not all situations, and he can even shape shift into other people and creatures. Madness allows him to drive those of weak will and low power into Insanity, then he can control them through their insanity as well. Madness also has the ability to mutate life, turning it into a twisted version of what it once was. Anything that he changes with magic can be reverted with little difficulty, and he can even choose how they will go insane. It can be a bout of paranoia, a loss of inhibitions, anything he can think of. Even if the target has a strong will, he can influence them heavily into a type of insanity, giving them whisperings of paranoia, make them more likely to act without rational thought, or make them think they want to waddle around and cluck like a chicken. The only one's to be completely unaffected by this magic are Great GrandFather/GrandMother Dragons, and even then, it's only a matter of time.

Out of all the dragons, he's one of the few, if not the only one, that doesn't hide his dragon features when in his compact form. He's proud of his heritage, and anyone who wants to insult dragon's as a whole better do it out of his ear shot unless they want their face to meet his fist.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> It changes with his form, as does his name, making it hard to strike find him if you don't know them all. Insomnium is a berserker in battle, ripping apart anything in his path, but in life he's a rather gentle and childish. 

Morpheus is rather mysterious, preferring not to speak, but to observe. He hardly acts upon anything that doesn't involve him in some way, and is known to give gifts to some of the people he observes, though no one knows why.

Gaiden is fairly hot-headed and, being the most human looking of all the forms, is usually the form taken when dealing with them is needed and violence is unwise. Gaiden loves to party and loves hanging out with humans, especially the women. Something about the way a human smells sets his soul aflame with passion, though he is hardly ever recieved with ooen arms.

Azous is believed to be the original form, but none of the others are sure. His attitude is summed up in one word, Lazy. Azous will do nothing unless he is threaten by certain death, and thus

<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span> Each Persona has a different power, Gaiden has extremely good healing factor, making him basically immortal, but is only a physically and magically capable as a human. Insomnium has berserker rage, thick hide and scales, incredible dense body, but his mind is easily invaded by mental abilities and magic. Morpheus has self reproduction, meaning he can clone himself, and Azous is separated from reality, making him unaffected by everything, but making him unable to affect anything as well. Basically, he's a ghost.

The newspaper were vague and unsatisfactory to fulfill the need of the humans questioning what happened, two days ago. 
In front of the fountain a man with a mean face expression slowly walked to a cheerfully old lady who was making a wool scarf. 
''My boy, my boy. Nice to see you. It so nice to have someone to talk and to know someone is thinking of a old lady like me, hoho~'' The grandmother laughed not raising her eyes from her hand work. The man sat beside her with a grunt, it was his default expression to glare at the world.
''Tell me all about the night of the fire.'' She encouraged the man.
''You first.'' Was his response which the old lady happily took. '' Oh you see some of the politicians in our parliament vanished that night. The king locked himself and his family for safety away. There arent proof but the whole city brooms about the conspiracy. This children this days dont know how to make a over thrown them self.'' She shock her head but continued in her cheerfully tone. '' It was being said that the people who vanished were taking enormous sums out of the city budget to pay hunters to develop weapons not only intended for capturing nasty beast but actually using it against the king. ''

''The younger generations sure love to be flashy and have money. I even feel ashamed for them.'' The ex hunter sighed taking a flask out a inner pocket and taking a sip. He glared towards anyone who would stop to look at the unusually pair sitting by the fountain. Most humans hurried out there as if they were held by a gun point. 
''What will they do?'' He asked the old lady a ex hunter too.
''The parliament? they would love to arrest the whole guild. They will not do it. The hunters do have a powerful argument on their side no?''
''..... the fire .... The damage done by the escaping dragons shouldnt have caused such a wide spread fire. Something else set it once they were gone... The guild is struggling to count the damage down. ''
He fall silent looking in the distance of the plaza, his eyes searching the shadows as if they sensed someone. 
''And?'' The old lady urged him, as she placed her half finished wool cap on the lap. Looking directly at her company. '' How many of the low life made it out?''
''Nearly all....some were killed. They are trying to figure what to do with the demons burn bodies. Hoping to do something productive. '' the man sad with a heavy sigh leaning back in the bench his hand covering his eyes.
'' They are lacking a facility to do anything productive. ''The woman helpfully pointed out the oblivious making the man crack a smile. ''The momentary leader of the guild  is awaiting a revenge attack from the dragons any day now.''

''Stupid. They are really hopeless with out us old folk. Getting their hands dirty with human politics, the hunters honor dirtied by such a silliness as money for experiments that in most cases just failed.'' 

He stood up and said his goodbyes the demons were wandering the town, he felt it in his bones. The guild was in completely disorder, not to mention the church who was kissing ass of the dragons. They were no gods. At best they could be seen as bag of gold. Wandering in his bar, he wondered if the fate would have looked different if he didnt sell information of his dragon pretending to be normal humans guest to his old guild. They proved them self useless in all sense. He went behind his trusted bar stand and leaned on a high chair. ''Next time I am holding my lips shut. Dragon or humans as long as they pay I will not kill them myself....''After a few moments of thinking he added in his mumbling. ''...for heck even a demon I will serve you cannot relay on the young thirsting for power.''
As the sun set his bar opened letting rumor filled with fear of creatures that were seen during the night and gossip full of hate and disappointment freely flow in with the happy drunks.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Meantime a half a hour away from the town, protected under a magical shield the dragons hold their Festival of Aging.
It was the end of the third day the last of the children were stepping in front of the grand grandmothers and grand grandfathers showing off their improvement in magic, so they could age on to being a teen, with the recognition of the most powerfully dragons.

Some dragons watched the ceremony of again some minded their own businesses, preferring to watch a another age group, or simply minding their own business. The dragons tribe didnt appear to show any worries for the future in opposite to the neighbour human town. They heard the news that dragons were captured by the hunters and freed a few hours later. Going their daily festival life everything is good what ends good, right? 

The grand grand mother Mirazan was annoyed with the decision of some of the more curios adults to gawk at the damage done to the hunters by their fellow dragons, using the church on the opposite side as a safe place. Voicing her announcement aloud and warning them to lay low that the church wasnt a safe place, grumbling on no end at them, still letting them follow their free will, even if she found it stupid to a full new level. 

Thought the curios dragons could as simply stay in the tribe to enjoy a talk with humans. One couldnt hide for long that the grand grandparents <span class=""bb-i"">invited</span> some humans to the tribe for the duration of festival. And so many dragons would question the humans about anything from asking why their fridge didnt work when they bite off the cables,the object they stole at one of those days, till the begging to be told good night stories. The ones who disapproved of the humans in general nagged and snarled at them but didnt do anything more. Guest of the grand grand parents were sadly not up for being eaten. Much to some dragons displeasure. Neither were the guest allowed to snack on the dragons of the tribe, this mainly was intended at Draken.

The other grand grand parents found the curiosity over humans a welcome thing. It would distracted the dragons and maybe even keep them safe in the tribe. All of the grand parents were warned by the grand grand parents about the possible demons wandering in the tribe. It was a question if such beings would be repealed by the ancient magic or not, taking in the account the shield was somewhat weaken thanks to the machines of the hunters. The uncertain made them act carefully, as same warned to not talk about it to anyone else. Knowing full well that some would just go search for the demons because they never saw one before. This was why most of the grandparents casually wandered the tribe and the woods of the fairies and pixies scanning for any unknown being. 

In the woods where the fairies lived a guest was already making him self comfortable. It was a chicken. Not any chicken but a legendary chicken. As this little bird was the bird who lived. It journey started when a dragon took her to the tribe as a meal, in which the chicken escaped her capture to be cashed by nearly all babies and child dragons all over the tribe. Dodging fire balls, flapping its wings over the pitfalls. Once running away from that stampede of dragons young-lings  it avoided for a feather length having her head cut off when the dragon slayer was cutting trees to lure out dragons. It avoided even the hungry animals of the woods to found its sanctuary under the pixies and fairies, who considered the brave chicken a miracle as it didnt yet die from a heart attack from everything it lived thought. The little magical beings healed the chicken who lived and gave her their own magic to use. Little did the chicken knew, that her story wasnt yet done. Well... the chicken little did know anything at all, but that digressing....</div>"

Next to him was a closed notebook, which contained various drawings of humans and dragons with ancient writing next to each sketch.

His tail swished back in forth with curiosity as he watched the civilians walk around the village. His piercing red eyes were staring at a fruit stand. He always wanted to try human food, but he has no way to acquire the money needed to buy it. He stared with a bit of envy as one of the humans bought a red-ish fruit.

(Is this long enough of a post? If not, I'll try to make longer posts. Also tell me of anything else I did, because I'm 99% sure I messed up somewhere? ^^')</div>"

Before using their hands to peck at people all around. The village guard tried to apprehend them, but they moved fast and fluidly, easily evading the guard's clutches as they continued their mass pecking. On a nearby rooftop was Nexias, laughing his ass of as he witnessed the chaos he had wrought below, his laughter becoming even louder when one of the guards tripped and went flying into a meat cart, causing it to collapse and for ham, sausage, and other assorted meats roll along the ground, causing even more chaos as people ran to grab it, or tripped over it while trying to avoid the chickens of the night.

""I knew this was going to be hilarious, but it turned out better than I had ever imagined.."" Nexias said when he finally calmed down enough to comment on the chaos below. He sighed, however, as all good things must end, and he'd get in trouble if he let someone get seriously injured from this. With a snap of his fingers, the chickens of the night were returned to sanity, and looked around confusedly, wondering ow they had gotten there. Nexias then gave a coughing grunt, alerting all in attendance to his presence, his wings in plain view, his fangs shining in the daylight, and his intense purple eyes filled with mischievous glee.

""Well know, wasn't that something, huh, I hope you all enjoyed that little bit of chaos in your day as I know did. Oh, and don't blame the chickens for any of this, they were under my control and not in their right minds. If any harm does come to them, then I will personally beat the sorry shit out of the idiot who did it. With that being said. . . later."" The chaos loving dragon dispersed into a shadowy mist that flew away in the blink of an eye, leaving the on lookers of the event speechless and confused at what the hell just happened. 

Nexias was soon back at the tribe, as he was fairly fast in his dragon form, which he had taken as soon as he had exited the city, and was preparing to get ready to show off his magical abilities, eager to be recognized as one of GrandFather strength. He was quickly growing in his dragon age, his powers in near constant use and always growing because of it, and his wild ways making it impossible for him to settle down and raise any family or take any mates. Nexias would only take for a mate anyone he deemed interesting enough, as free-spirited as himself or more so, or one who had beaten him in combat, the race of said person didn't matter. 

Watching the children as they strutted their magic, seeking to prove themselves able, he smiled, wondering if he'll ever get the chance to see one of his brood take to the stage. If he continued on his present couse of actions, it might soon be impossible for him, though that was mostly his delusions of grandur speaking, as he believe that Great Grand Father ship would soon be in his grasp after he proved himself today. One could say a lot about Nexias, but it should never be said that he is lacking in confidence.</div>"

Upon his awakening he had left the burning prison from which his cell was held, as the fire barely scratched him. No, in contrast the fire gave him comfort in the twilight that was now. The alley that he stood in was apart of a large market, with many humans about buying and selling, completely oblivious to what was coming. It had been 25 long years since Abraxas had eaten last, he was famished to say the least, and this hunger was now driving him to find the nearest food source; humans. He had never tasted human before, those in charge of him had only fed those in the prison scraps of whatever they could find. Now it was time for the demon to feast.

Before he could come from the shadows, something occurred. Humans who acted differently then those in the market. No, these human flapped their arms and made screeching noises, causing a momentary chaos in the marketplace. Then it was over, and a voice could be heard coming from top a building. It said, ""no harm was to come to those that had acted in the odd way, or those that did it would suffer"" then vanished into the night. Abraxas was perplexed by this oddity and wondered what the thing was. The most logical thing that came to his mind was a fellow demon of sorts. He didn't really care, as long as it was gone and wouldn't pose a threat, for Abraxas would be the one to make them suffer. 

Erupting from the alleyway, like a mad bull, came Abraxas towering over the humans like a lion over sheep. The spikes connected to his wrist, elongated, turning into formidable weapons. Shock filled the humans hearts as they looked at the monster from afar. Abraxas then roared defiantly, letting the town know that he was there and sending the humans running. He charged, his bulk causing indentations in the ground with each power step. He came upon the nearest group of humans in a matter of seconds, sending some flying into buildings with a swipe from his right arm. He swung his left spike blade at a group, sending their bodies to the floor with a sickening crunch. Next, he picked up a screaming female by the looks of it, and devoured her. The taste of human flesh was invigorating, and he craved more.

He sent a bolt of fire into a nearby building, causing it to explode in a plume of fire and smoke, which would soon be seen by all. Abraxas was content causing this chaos, for the thrill of it all was great and he deserved it for being imprisoned for so long. The humans would pay for the insolence at keeping a demon of his caliber locked away. Nothing could stop him now he thought, as he continued the destruction.</div>"

He couldn't hear what the person was saying no matter how much he tried, but he was still intent on what he would do afterwards.

His eyes lit like a child when he saw the person sprout wings and fly off. <span class=""bb-i"">A dragon!</span> he thought to himself. He picked up his book that was next to him when he heard a noise come from the town: an attack. He looked at the figure causing all of the commotion with irritation at first. He quickly turned to fearful when he saw the suspect was a demon.

Lynx had thought all of the demons were still locked up, and he lied it that way. He had to make sure he was right. He hopped off of the tree branch and ran into the town.
Not many people saw him running in between their legs, but the ones who did were either freaked out or confused.

He stood on the fruit stand he was looking at earlier to get a better look at the situation. He was, in fact, right that it was a demon. It had a dead women in it's mouth, which made Lynx extremely angry. He was about to destroy the earth under the demon when he realized he was in a village. He would most likely hurt other civilians around the area of impact.

He chose to just avoid the situation. He knew that either the other demon would eventually leave or he would be apprehended by one of the hunters.

His attention then turned toward the fruit salesman. He was hiding behind his fruit stand so the other demon wouldn't notice him. Lynx's curiosity overcame him and, instead of flee, he studied the cowering salesman. The man had never seen such a creature before: a red eyes cat with a seemingly malicious grin on it's face. The man ran away which disappointed Lynx. Lynx then left the town to go back to the forest, but not before he grabbed one of the fruits from the stand.</div>"

The man behind the stall asked before stifling a yawn. Keepa took their time, soundlessly admiring the baubles and wrist-watches near the vendor's till. The man's comment was in the form of a half-question, not entirely certain of their customer's gender. ""My apologies, I just..."" Keepa sighed, holding up two different watches with curiosity before biting their lip with a small click. ""...I can only afford one, and they are both so beautiful. You have quite the eye for merchandise, sir~"" the demon coo'd, offering a sheepish smile. The goal was in its works, weather he wanted a watch or not, the merchant was the prize all along. In truth, he wished he had the money for even one of the watches. ""I would so sooner have both, although I bet you-"" he began before the body of another man crashed into the cart, sending the contents sprawling and the salesman unconscious.

Without breaking their expression, Keepa took their time to put both watches on one of his wrists, syncing them in silence while turning to the source of the disturbance. A towering beast, feasting on humans. It made me look bad~
""OI!"" Keepa called, protective of his cattle in his resolution to stand up to the fiend.

~~~<span class=""bb-u"">1st person</span>~~~

The mere visage was daunting, though it had a strange eldritch pull on me. I was wholesomely disgusted by this feeling; rejected from my homeland, I would reject those who would be considered 'wild'...the term 'hypocrite' comes to mind. Others gave me such a title, and they are not here. Lead by example, yes?

If it was capable of feeling what I felt, it would know that I was no human. Striding closer into the shade of the buildings, I intended to clarify my intentions with the mounting inky darkness of my reach. He would find it difficult to stand on a ground that ate away at his very essence.
I was curious what demons tasted like~
There was hope that the pain of remaining in my web would encourage him to leave. I was very uncertain if I could actually best such a monster in close combat, hoping I would win out through attrition, alone.</div>"

It paused for a moment, then drifted slowly out of the Gold Village, over the chaos below. It kept drifting towards the forest, the wind seemingly having no effect on it. The smoke melted into a tree, and for a moment, it looked like there was something moving under the bark. The wood shaped and bent itself outwards, coloring to a light red, creating a humanoid form, around six feet tall, dark leaves sprouting up at the joints of the arms and legs, and clawed hands forming from the ends of the arms. Branches snaked out of the back of his head, yellow leaves sprouting at the ends, creating hair of sorts, and two dark eyes opened up, blinking slowly. 

Ocotl shook off bits of bark and dust as he turned around. Most of the tree's bark was gone, and it looked like someone had ripped apart the wood in the middle, leaving the tree a gnarled mess. The crown was completely gone, and He shook his head slightly, regretting having to destroy something part of nature. But it was necessary for his survival. He walked out of the forest, emerging on to a grassy plain just outside of Gold Village. He could see smoke rising from the center of the town. He tensed up, ready to eliminate whatever threat might be there, but just then, a dragon flew above him at an incredible speed, not even a form Ocotl could catch. There was nothing left for him to do at the Village, so he began to run towards the direction the dragon was going, the ground trembling under his footsteps.

It didn't take Ocotl long before he could see a dense forest up ahead. Voices drifted out of the trees, but they were faint and distorted, as if he was underwater. He slowed down, and stopped just in front of a barrier. It was barely visible, but there were faint ripples in the air. The tree-demon closed his eyes and extended his hands, muttering a few words. Small plants erupted out of the ground, twisting and forming a sort of gate between outside of the barrier to the inside. He walked through the gate and snapped his fingers, and the plants seemed to burrow back into the ground, and the barrier was intact. Ocotl stepped carefully through the forest, the voices much clearer now. The forest began to thin out, and paths trampled in the dirt began to appear, with footprints of massive size. He paused briefly, staring at the prints. He looked ahead, then kept on walking. He emerged from the grassland to find a large village, secluded within the middle of the forest. There were dragons everywhere, both in compact and true forms. It was a sight he had not expected to find, and had not seen in many, many years. Recalling memories from years past, Ocotl walked through the village, looking for the black dragon he had seen earlier.</div>"

Insomnium was currently wandering the village, sticking to the shadows as he slithered through the alleyways, though it was that effective due to his bulky frame, causing people to scream. He heard cries coming from a direction and curiously went to investigate, only to see a demon, for he could smell the dark scent that only their kind on the creature, attacking a bunch of the fleshy creatures, and even eating one. The smell of blood, the cries of the dying, and the sight of such an imposing opponent, were more than enough to send Insomnium into his berserker mode, his scales changing from their usually white to a deep black with red edges, as he charged into the Demon, any flames the beast sent his way doing nothing as his thick scales and dense body protected him from such attacks. When he barreled into the creature he would open his maw and proceed to try and tear at the creatures flesh, eager to rend it's carcass to piece before turning on the other presences he noticed, hoping they'd provide good sport as well.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/lord-zee"">@Lord Zee</a>

Nexias

Nexias felt a presence moving through the shadows, definitely not a dragon. Interesting that something should be able to get passed the barrier, though it had been weakened recently, he decided to go investigate, slipping away in a puff of shadow towards where he sensed the being. Upon seeing the tree like creature, he quickly made his presence known, sipping out of a shadow in front of the creature, his purple eyes glowing with interest, insanity, mischief, and strangely enough, a good deal of latent rage. For if this being had come to attack his home, Nexias would be sure it's mind was so broken it would even remember how to breath, and it's body so twisted by his corruption that it would hardly be recognizable as a living thing.

""Speak your business, tree man, or else I'll have to kill you, rather violently, for daring to think you could come into this village meaning it any harm, If you mean no harm, then follow me, I'll pretend to be your escort in and let you sate your curiosity, as long as you sate mine. I'm curious as to what the hell you are, as I don't think I've seen something like you before.""

To his surprise, he saw a walking tree. He was extremely curious as to what it was, so he decided to follow the thing. He left his red fruit on the branch where he was sitting on before and went looking for foot prints, or root prints, to follow. He grabbed his sketchbook with his mouth he could document the creature when he caught up to him.

With a few minutes of searching, he found the root prints of the creature. The seemed to be like wooden steaks, which impaled the ground with ease. He ran to where the tree creature was headed, knowing that it too probably moved with great speed. The farther he ran toward the creature, the more he could smell the presence on another demon. Was it the same demon? It couldn't be. The last one was most certainly not a tree, and the other one was attacking the the Gold Village still, if he remembered correctly.

He continued to blindly run as he was lost in his thoughts. Suddenly, he face-planted into a barrier, causing him and his book to fly backwards. The book layed a few metres away from him, opened to a page with a dragon sketch: the only dragon sketch in his whole book.

He got up with irritation as he picked up his book. He walked up to the barrier and could hear faint voices. With further inspection, he saw a pieces of what looked like dragons, though he couldn't tell because of the forest in the way. his eyes glistened with a child-like curiosity. He put his paw against the barrier to make sure the barrier was still solid, which it was. He groaned with annoyance, which was ironic because the current form he was in had an ever-lasting smile on its face.

He hit the barrier harder, but nothing happened. He then had an idea, which he didn't think much through. He backed up a about 20 metres away from the barrier and caused an explosion on the forcefield, thanks to his destruction magic. It made an impressively loud boom, and a multitude of dirt and leaves flew everywhere, but the barrier stayed intact without a scratch. He walked back up to the barrier with a pondering look on his face, trying to figure out a way for him to bypass the forcefield. He ignored the crater in the ground next to him, although it was quite big.</div>"

Abraxas sniffed the air, suddenly realizing that he was not alone in the market square. His feet gave out a sharp pang of pain, looking down he saw that the shadows beneath him seemed to be darker then usual. In turn he used his own shadow abilities to nullify the effects slightly, causing a throbbing in his feet. He looked around for the culprit, but his eyes came upon the hulk of a beast charging him. Reacting fast, he threw several small fireballs to dissuade the other demon but to no avail. Before he could step aside Abraxas was tackled into a building, the creature attempting to bite him. The small building collapsed in on itself from the weight of the two colossal demons, while the bite from it caused no damage as his hide was thick, covered in natural plates that worked the same as armor.

The watches read 2:54 and 9:39, ticking along in pseudo synchronization. The merchant hadn't taken the time to fix his wares, although the numbers means little to Keepa, he was just glad he had his new toys. On that note, the fight was starting to escalate with the addition of a new contender. This one wasn't as intruding as the first and the liar was hesitant to feed off of them as well, serving the purpose that Keepa could not.

""Dra-so'iraas, menain ir ol!"" (You're wasting your time, survive and run!) I chirp through the chaos, closing my eyes to spare myself from the annoyingly blinding light of the sun as it bit through the allyway. It was all such a waste of the beautiful architecture of the city, but it was one that was being made and I felt fortunate that I didn't have to clean it up. With a smile, I held one hand out to the shade I had exited, the mass returning and seeping through my shell to spill out into the next section. The hands of my watches spun, wildly and making a popping noise within one of the small machines that I'm certain would be the evening in attempts to repair. It would take a moment before my mass could resume feeding on...hmm...the two? I hadn't decided on this, yet. All I knew was that I wasn't done with the intruder. The thought occurred to me that announcing myself may not have been the best idea.</div>"

His mind was gone, replaced by a berserker rage, When the demon's fist smashed into his head, he barely felt it, his rage too all-consuming. He took hold of one of the creatures arms with a clawed hand, intending to flip it over and smash it into the dust, but then he heard someone yell out in their direction. Immediately forgetting about the creature he had been attacking previously, he charged at the other one, letting out a roar as he went to smash it into the ground with a clawed fist.</div>"

He stopped moving at the sight of the dragon in front of him. He was sure it was the same dragon he had seen flying out of the village. He had a dangerous glint in his eye, and Ocotl could almost feel the anger emanating from him. He hoped he would not have to fight this... dragon, as it would not be a battle he would win.

""Speak your business, tree man, or else I'll have to kill you, rather violently, for daring to think you could come into this village meaning it any harm, If you mean no harm, then follow me, I'll pretend to be your escort in and let you sate your curiosity, as long as you sate mine. I'm curious as to what the hell you are, as I don't think I've seen something like you before.""

Ocotl shook his head, his eyes narrowing slightly. <span class=""bb-i"">If this thought is shared by all dragons now, it seems I will have to leave sooner</span>, he thought to himself. <span class=""bb-i"">This dragon is full of rage, but seems just. I will have to see.</span>

""I do not wish dragons harm. I only would like to explore this place,"" he spoke, slowly and deeply. He looked around, an odd wisdom in his eyes. ""I have not seen something like it for a very long time.""

He gestured to himself, joints creaking quietly. ""My form is not a common sight. But its story is not something I would like to tell right now. I would like to know more about you, but if it is an escort you offer, please lead the way.""</div>"

And that was all Keepa could manage before being mashed into the seams of the cobblestone which cracked with the force. Shards of porcelain flesh skipped across the ground from the impact, the only remains of the demon besides the black stain splattered across the ground...and all over Insomnium's fist.
<span class=""bb-i"">'I suppose it could be worse'</span>
The hand and wrist, still bearing the two watches twitched as the inky darkness pulled itself from the fingers to cling to the other demon, rapidly beginning to engulf his arm. With every inch Keepa stretched, a cold numbness seeked to rob Insomnium of every ounce of their strength; maniacal retaliation for the assault. The darkness of the shadows that had once assailed Abraxas now turned on the new challenger, gradually converging and lashing at their legs. Hungering and pulling itself with purposeful speed...it had been quite a while since Keepa had felt genuine vindication. Vindictive in his aggressiveness that would leave any normal human reeling in agony within mere moments.</div>"

Now that she was gone Sealameet wasn't sure what to do with himself for the time and sought out comfort with his relatives that were at the festival but most of it was with his sister.
""You know I heard Tahamuyra has arrived,"" his sister said "",I saw him earlier today. Seems he was delayed for some time due to a few hunter's that had been in the way of his travel. Perhaps you should see him, staying here all day doesn't do you any good and I can take care of myself but you know that.""

""Perhaps you are right dear sister but that one dragoness will always be in my heart and it aches that she has left even before the festival has ended. She will miss out on some extraordinary events still to come as it ends and I wanted to show that her first festival could be the best,"" Sealameet replied with a sigh.

""When have you become a romantic. You do indeed need to see eldest brother for now your very personality is changing,"" Lucatiel said and began prodding him to the door "",Now go before I make a crytal bat hard enough to hit you out and not break.""
------

Tahamuyra was one of the grandfathers watching the displays of the younger dragons as they showed their skills and longed to become adults. He had attempted to get at the start of the festival but had been delayed due to human activity that he had to detour around that made the trip longer then he had hoped. At least now he was here. He had ran into one of his younger siblings. It was sometimes hard to keep track who he was related to especially in his family tree but she had a gift for crystal making and soon remembered her name and had a conversation with her before having to go do his duties as a grandparent. Part of the conversation was trying to convince him to find a mate of his own and have a clutch as she told him of some other sibling of his who was swooning over a young dragoness. She didn't outright say it but he could guess what she was doing. Now was not the time though for finding a mate though and with the recent events that had transpired that he was told of a few dragon's doing, it was better to keep a clear mind on the festival and keeping both eyes open for any signs of danger.</div>"

At first, Insomnium was pleased, thinking he had killed his enemy, but then the splatter began to crawl up his arm, causing his fury to crow as he tried to get the muck off. He began smashing into buildings and dragging his arms through the ground in an effort to get the gunk of off him. If this failed, he would then begin to go back to beating the other demon, if it did succeed, he'd do the same thing. As he was doing all of this, Insomnium didn't notice in his rage the slow draining of his energy, too busy trying to remove the shadows from his arm. When he charged at the demon, he'd be noticeably slower, and his hits would be lacking about a fourth or so of their usual power, if not more.

Nexias

Upon the speaking of his true intentions, the demon would fins all anger and seriousness disaooear form it's eyes as it gave a sigh of relief. ""Splendid, then don't mind if I give you the grand tour. I'll sate your curiousity, show you around, and maybe, i let you into my sacred order of the Chickens of the Night, but you must prove yourself for that. Oh, is that a kitty?!?!?!"" Nexias zipped past the demon to appear before the strange grinning cat. While most would find it creepy, Nexias found it absolutely fascinating. ""You are the best cat ever,"" Nexias whispered, switching to his compact form as he walked out of the barrier, grabbed the cat and brought it in with him. With cat in hand, he motioned for the tree man to follow with a skip in his step.""Today has bee a wonderful day for sure, caused a little ruckus in town with my Chickens, met a mysterious tree man, and now I have a cat, awesome. Alright, come with me, tree man, and tell me your name if you want me to stop calling you that, and I promise you, I just might. Myu name is Nexias by the way, and your looking at the next GrandFather dragon off the tribe, that is almost a certantiy with skills like mine. That display of mine in town was merely the opening act."" Nexias began to cackle like a mad man as he led his guest back towards the tribe, stroking the cat he held in his hands, feeling like such the evil master mind. Oh who was he kidding, he was an evil master mind and he loved it.</div>"

Syrilth knew there were many demons and dragons roaming around the human town, blending in among the humans. It was a good thing that she had already bought the ice cream she so wanted before the chaos ensued.

She reached the outskirts of Gold Village, and was licking the ice cream. She was palpably surprised though, when she saw what looked like a humanoid tree stomping its way into the forest, making the ground vibrate beneath its heavy footsteps. She raised her eyebrows. It was quite a rare occasion that she'd see something like that. She decided to follow after it, plus it was also heading to the direction of where her tribe was, but was cut to the chase by a red-eyed, black and grey cat as it leaped off the branch of a nearby tree. Both their scents made it known to Syrilth that they were demons. 

After following the cat for quite a while, careful not to make any sounds, observing its movements, how excited it was, energetically running following the traces of the tree demon, Syrilth stopped about some thirty meters behind the familiar barrier surrounding her tribe, and hid behind a tree. She resorted to observing the cat's actions. Her ice cream had been finished long before, and at some point she threw the stick away while chasing after the cat.

After watching a few failed attempts of it trying to break through the barrier, the last attempt being quite filled with effort, Syrilth decided to reveal herself to the cat demon. She clearly saw the disappointment in its figure. What piqued her interest though, was its sketchbook that had opened to a page with the drawing of a dragon.

When she greeted the cat, though, another dragon in his compact form went out the barrier and picked it up, then went through the barrier again. This caused disappointment to arise in Syrilth. She sighed.</div>"

Abraxas stood up and looked where it was going, towards another figure in the distance, he guessed the one that spoke. He saw the events unfold, as the smaller figure was seemingly crushed then it's shadow grabbing on to the others arm. The resulting destruction as it tried to get it off was immense, as part of the street was destroyed and several buildings now were in ruins. Abraxas noticed that the shadows that had been bothering him earlier had run to this newcomer.

Then the demon looked at his upright body, and charged at him once more this time noticeably slower. So he must be wearing down from this rage or it was the shadow sucking on his life force. Either way Abraxas was now in a favorable position and readied himself for the attack. His arms burst into flames and he pulled them far apart from each other, as if praying to a god and he spoke, ""Gor, lok nal cutta ro!""(Now, become ash from flame!). His flaming arms then collided with one another and a torrent of flame spewed forth, going straight for the oncoming demons. The longer he kept it up, the weaker he would become, so after 10 seconds it would be over.</div>"

He grabbed his sketchbook and went to leave, but was suddenly picked up by what seemed to him to be a human. Because of this, he didn't hear the greeting of the other dragon that had tried to speak to him. The human carried him through the barrier without a problem. He was eager to be able to go through the barrier and study the dragons, but this was overwhelming to him. He became extremely anxious. He was scared that the dragons hated demons, and if he were to be discovered, he would be toast.

As the human carried him  through, he saw the tree-creature standing in front of him. He could smell that it was a demon. He glared at the tree with suspicion, since he was still under the impression that all other demons were blood-thirsty murderers. He looked over to the town where the dragons were, and realized the human carrying him was actually a dragon. He smelled the person carrying him, and indeed did not smell like a human.

As anxious as Lynx was about going into the town, rather than his safe-distance studying, he was also quite excited. He was curious to see what dragons were like in their homeland. Oh, the drawings he'll add in his notebook! He was grateful that he had a free tour-guide as well. What more could he ask for?

He glared at the tree-demon again. He mentally swore that if the other demon would try to do damage to any of the dragons or the town, he would help stop him.</div>"

His mask was gone by the end of the first day, stolen by a curious child. He didn't mind enough to get it back. The dragon was perfectly content with the skull. Ezekiel even had a few of the young dragons convinced he was a ghost. Not that he went out of his way to do so, he simply went along with their initial thoughts. Albinism was a bitch to deal with, but sometimes it served him well. aside from the occasional mischievous dragon trying to take his eye patch, he didn't run into many problems. He respected the dragons against his presence, the looks they gave and the outright warnings, staying as far away from them as he could get; otherwise, he had been quite social. Still showing the utmost devotion to his god, but he wasn't about to pass up the chance to ask questions of dragons who would ask him just as many questions about himself and his own culture. He spent most of this time with the children and the teens, preferring the younger generations and their natural curiosity.

The aging ceremonies themselves were incredible to behold. Even the younger dragons had more magic than Ezekiel had seen any human use, the hunters and their blasphemous equipment included. When it came to watching, he kept his questions to his god a minimum - He didn't need much information to devise the rest for himself. The historical and cultural value of the ceremonies was beyond him, but he understood the basics. The scraps of cryptic information a dragon enjoyed giving him (""One range, total freedom"" and ""A decade, reborn"", to name a few) were finally falling into place as he observed proceedings. 

In the short time he had been with the tribe, Ezekiel had also learned about his own god. Draken was often one to be cryptic, and he respected the god's right to want to remain largely neutral in human affairs. Did that neutrality break when it came to him? Sometimes, when things got out of hand, but in the end Ezekiel was still largely responsible for his own actions, mostly only receiving abstract advice or the occasional warning. There were some odd rumors about the elder. Did he really kill his own father? While a strange thing to say, he wouldn't put it past his god to kill anyone who got in his way. An event he was connected to was brought up a few times when discussing the grandfather, to which the priest would only laugh. After all, was it really his place to tell everything? He felt it better to keep some things at rumors.

""Makes sense. So being a grand-grandfather can be considered more of a hassle than its worth?"" He asked Draken, leaning to his god. Ezekiel was always cold, as his multiple layers of clothes proved. As he idly looked around he made it a point to avoid eye contact with the dragons he knew were against his being there. He didn't need to start anything that could be loosely called a fight. Of course, any dragon here could kill him, so maybe calling it a fight wasn't fair. There would be problems for everyone in that situation, but it still wasn't worth challenging the dragons. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Milhoro</div>
Everyone was in such a hurry to leave. It's not like Milhoro couldn't understand why. Being trapped for so long could make one stir crazy. He even found himself losing his patience, near the end. The hunters threw a lot of bullshit at him, and it got old, fast. But that was all over now.

He thought about his village, and what had become of the social order he had painstakingly perfected over the years. It all probably went to hell. The thought of it was frustrating, but he was sure nothing happened that he couldn't fix, that he couldn't restore to a proper order. If it took another century-long lesson of teaching the masses why questioning him was a bad idea, then so be it.

There were screams coming in all directions, abominations running to the outside in any direction possible as he calmly glided out of his cell. It was a symphony, fit to perform to the Great Ones themselves. Milhoro had always held faith in his fellow demon, today reminded him why that was so. 

Most of the complex had fallen, and the parts that were still standing weren't long to stay that way. However the demon fought against his brothers and his sisters to explore what parts he could get to. The hunters had valuable information, and he wasn't going to leave before at least attempting to see what he could. The effort proved largely futile, except for the few scraps of data on other demons. They were left rather carelessly; the man in charge must have been in a hurry to get out. Figures, that humans would be so cowardly. They had names on the ones that they could manage to get the names from. Besides that, there wasn't much. It would be too easy if he could find valuable information on what would surely become his aggressors soon enough? 

Accepting the lack of useful info and cutting his losses there, Milhoro headed out of the underground. 

Bright. God, was it bright. Had the Earth always been like this? Fifteen years never felt like much to him, but apparently his body felt otherwise. Once he had adjusted to his surroundings, he noticed a few stray demons still climbing out of the ruins, confused, one could almost say scared. They were feral, of a lower class. Poor things. But Milhoro had bigger things to concern himself over than the ones who had lost their minds, and whether they had the unfortunate circumstance to be born like that, or if the hunters had driven them to it. The fire and ruins he stood in would hold significance to him - A cleansing, a new point to be rid of the vile injustice the humans had done unto him. 

Soon the screams from his companions and the screams of rage and hatred separated themselves. He headed towards the latter, figuring he would observe more there. It looked to be a very pretty, orate marketplace. At least, at one point it was probably that. The market square was shaping up to become like the prison in which they had just escaped. Milhoro made sure to stay clear of the demons' strife. So violent, right off the bat. Figures. In his opinion, he thought it better to save his anger and his energy on the humans that deserved it, fighting the brothers of the empire would get them nowhere. ""An vitroc."" (How trivial.) He couldn't say he wasn't impressed with them, though he was sure they could certainly be doing better.</div>"

The fires of Abraxas' spell licked at Insomnium, the fires quickly rending the darkness of his spikes from the demon's back. A thick black cloud billowed from his form as Keepa reformed, tumbling to the ground, their flesh alight as they quickly regrew the protective shell which contained their mass. With an agonized groan, Keepa pulled himself to his feet, shadows fading as even their clothes mended themselves. ""Et habeant ad invicem, tunc..."" (Let them retaliate upon each other, then...) he spat, limping a few steps before their legs finished at the joints, allowing him to throw himself into an alleyway to escape the chaos which was certain to draw the attention of his previous captors. In his state, he managed to drag himself half way into the ally for both cover and seclusion, a place to hide and process his stolen time.

Before he could cause himself more harm, however, a voice spoke in his head with the simple phrase, 'enough'. 

Suddenly, the demon's body begn to shine with dazzling light, before darkening into an empty void. The void soon took a humanoid shape, though it was hazy, indistinct, and had two glowing blue eyes. Abraxas' flames, held back by a strange, invisble field during the shift, now surge forth looking as if it was about hit the shadowed figure, only to go right thru it and into a near by building. Azous stepped out of the flames path, looking no worse for wear, and laid down on the ground, as if he was falling asleep.

The black dragon yawned, waking up from a nap during the day. She was quite passive from when she returned from the rescue mission. Preferring to heal her wounds and  relax from the stress. Asking for a place to say Nexias offered it, reluctant she took it mostly as it was inside the tribe. To Siabels pleasure the dragon was spending a lot of time being around. 

Stretching her wings she walked up to Momo, her little human pet, talking a bit to her about the plans for tonight they made their way towards the crystal shop. Tomorrow would start the big day for the black wind dragon as the ceremony for the teens would start. They would show off their magic to prove that they were strong enough to be adults. Hearing the rumors of other teens Siabel found it interesting that many fresh adults would instantly go for a mate, high from their success. She couldnt judge them as her herself had the same intentions when she arrived in the tribe...a life time ago..was it really just 3-4 days ago? 

She felt tired, all the interaction with the curios babies and other dragons who wanted to know more about Momo tired her out. The only good aspect was she hadnt had to worry about Momos safety, as the dragons were not really allowed  to hurt any of the guest humans. Siabel even allowed her to wander around the tribe and spend the time with the other two. 

Arriving in front of the crystal shop she turned towards Momo.'' You can go and spend some time with the others, I will be after this in the training grounds. ''

''Thank you a lot my lady.'' Momo hummed, making a bow to her before all but happily run away like the hyper active 16 year old girl she was. Siabel watched her for a few moments before knocking on the door and slowly entered. The last time she was in this shop, there was quite the commotion thanks to Momo and the two headed child wanting to eat her. 
''Hello? I hope I am not interrupting.'' Siabel hummed as she pushed the door open. She did wondered if that child dragon managed to age to a teen, in today ceremony. 

'' I wanted to..'' She trailed for moment before taking on her more determent face. '' I felt it was my responsibility for the unpleasant happening a few days ago. I was thinking the least I could do as apology to offer some company, if I am wished for.'' Siabel smiled pleasantly.




Chu

He watched the whole ceremony of the various children a lot of them he knew staying in the tribe and spending the time he did at the nursery. 
The days that passed were peacefully to the earth dragons standards. He spend most of it either around aster or around the nursery. He helped to watch over Myrtle and Momo, just as same. Now he knew she was a human not a baby dragon. He wasnt the type to be angry for long. He didnt left the dragon tribe, even less he wanted to remind himself of the adventure that happened because of some drinks. 

It was peacefully and he couldnt wait to see tomorrows try of Aksaja and Siabel to become adults. The teens who went thought the events 3 days ago. He hoped they wouldnt be too strongly affected by it all and do their best. Winter was one of them too but she couldnt handle it and once they arrived to the tribe she wished everyone a farewell and fly off her own way. She mentioned something about her remembering things and so she left. 

''You can do it!'' He cheered a child on watching them be all shy in front of the grand grand parents of the tribe. It wasnt easy to perform your magic when you arent fully sure in the fact if you could do it. Winning against being nervous was part of the challenge.</div>"

The faint sounds instantly became louder, much more clearer. She breathed in deeply. The scents of dragons, demons and humans filled her sharp nose. Even in her compact form, she still retained her dragon senses. Dragons chatted with each other as the festival went on, most of whom had flown from afar she did not recognise. Humans were mostly surrounded by dragons, being bombarded with questions. There were only a few demons, and they had dragon escorts with them. She smiled seeing a child dragon finally showing off a tremendous magic display after being all shy about it and get excited when it passed.

She proceeded to wander around the tribe's grounds aimlessly, observing everything. It was one of her hobbies actually, observing, that is. Syrilth considered searching for her few friends who were probably scattered all over the place, but decided not to, as she figured they were most likely busy with something. She wasn't much of a social dragon, and would mostly be found alone. She didn't mind that fact though, although it would sometimes feel lonely. Thus she wasn't searching for a mate like many other adult dragons.

She entered a shop after a black dragon had opened the shop's big doors meant for a dragon, intending to window shop. She witnessed the dragon apologizing to just about all who was there in the place, and was curious to find out why.</div>"

It took a few seconds for Lucatiel to remember the humans name by the sound of her voice. Once she did she gave her a smile.""Hello again Momo,"" she said "",No you are not interrupting anything at all, he was just leaving."" She gave her brother one last shove out of the door before returning to the conversation to Momo. Sealameet gave a hello and goodbye as quick as he could with his sister pushing him out before he was gone to go well where he wished.

Lucatiel gave a wave of her hand at Momo.""There is nothing to be sorry for, it wasn't your fault. We dragon's still have instincts that get in the way of better judgement at times and unfortunately that was one of those moments. Your offer of company though is much appreciated and if you so desire you may stay as long as you wish.""</div>"

It had been a interesting three days to say the least. With the expected chatter of visiting humans and of course Draken, everyone had something to gossip and gripe about. With a variety of dragons with different views, of course one came across something different. From those who were totally against humans and to others who were highly curious about them. After Mirazan's little rule on not hurting the human visitors though, those who disliked humans could only glare on.

Draken didn't have much opinion to be here. Unless one liked listen to the gossip among the dragons and what they have been up to. Draken had spent most of his time either causing a little mischief and playing some jokes on some of the other Dragons, or watching Ezekiel. His Priest seemed to be enjoying himself, despite some of the more hateful dragons. In which case, Draken also didn't hesitate to play a joke on them.

Still, he knew his human was resourceful and would be alright for the most part. Draken still kept a eye on him like he keeps a eye on just about everybody, but he allowed Ezekiel to go wherever he wished on his own. It pleased him to see the priest's dedication to him, despite facing those who feared and disliked him.

Today, they were sitting in the stands, the human leaning up against him for more warmth. It was funny how Ezekiel got cold easily, but the grandfather obliged with fetching him warmer clothing and using his own body like a furnace. Normally, Draken didn't quite care for the events but he went with Ezekiel because it was a sight to behold. Plus, today in particular was one of his hatchlings time to try.

<font color=""red"">""Mhmm indeed. With great power comes great responsibility as they say.""</font> Draken chuckled in answer to his human as he watched the ceremony, wrapping a arm around the priest. Brushing his fingers through the white hair, the absence of the mask a little odd considering Ezekiel usually hardly took it off before. It had been awhile since he had seen the human's face well.

<font color=""red"">""You're quite a kind soul to not let me get your mask back for you.""</font> he chuckled.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Damia</div>
Damia had spent most of her time training for the child ceremony. Though she was quite curious as there was commotion about dragons who were captured and were rescued. The Great Grandmother Mirazan allowed humans and Draken into the tribe for the festival. It made her happy, it meant she could actually see her father in person. Yet, she didn't know what to say. What if he disliked her? What if she wasn't strong enough to make the powerful dragon proud? So she was hesitant to seek him out. If rumors hold, Draken had several hatchlings over his many years of living. He shot up into adulthood at a young age and almost had 2,000 years of life. 

So what if she was the worst of them all? 

To decide this, she trained harder, determined to finally become a teen dragon.

Here she was now, shaking under the gazes of the Great Grandparents and a crowd of dragons watching. The emerald scaled two-headed dragon gulped a little, both heads in sync which meant she was non conflicted in being nervous. Glancing to the crowd as she heard a reassuring cheer, Damia took a deep breath and puffed up her chest to seem a little more confident.

Flapping her wings, he long body slithered around on the ground, the left half opening the jaws and letting out a light green sparkling mist. A sweet smelling calming aroma emitting from it. Damia kept flying in circles emitting this cloud, spiraling upwards in a circle until the cloud was a nice large size. Stopping, the child turned around to look at the cloud, until there was a bit of shaking on the ground.

Several green vines shot from the ground, twining together to create a large firm stem as a bud sprouted at the top, before parting into a glowing and shimmering rainbow colored rose petal like flower. Shining brilliantly for all to see.

<img src=""http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs37/f/2008/243/5/1/Rainbow_Flower_by_HeyCutieNicePants.jpg""/>

Damia's right head then breathed a dark smoggy green breath at the flower, the odor more foul smelling. The left head breathing the sweet smelling breath again afterward. After a moment, the flower started moving. Wiggling a little before seeming to start to dance, twirling the petals happily, causing strands of stray falling petals to burst into the air and gingerly float in the sky, fluttering with the wind.

Once all the petals were removed, the stem wilted before crumbling into a pile of dirt. Damia flapped back to the ground and folded her wings. Shyly glancing around them up at the Great Grandparents for some sort of approval.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Aster</div>
It had been a tiring three days. Aster had spent time getting some rest to get a bit more healing after the whole ordeal. While he also spent time watching over Myrtle, who was quite tiring to keep up with. She might as well be a baby dragon with that much energy. While also hanging out with Chu, who also helped him out watching Myrtle. 

Today, after watching Myrtle who sort of watched part of the child ceremony before running off again, he sighed and decided to go and sit beside Chu, who he soon spotted cheering on the nervous child dragon. With a slight smile, he sat beside the earth dragon.

<font color=""plum"">""Hey Chu.""</font> he greeted softly, before glancing to the child as they created a brilliant flower for display.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Myrtle</div>
One of the humans who had been granted permission to attend the dragon festival, had made full use of it. Making full notes of how the dragons were. Their habits, their eating diet, and whatever. Of course every dragon was unique so he just started sketching dragons she saw and putting notes beside it. As well as the general culture of how they all lived.

Myrtle had hanged around Aster and Chu for the most part, but also happily spent time with the other visiting humans. After all, pretty much all three of them were excited in attending the festival.

Currently, Myrtle was sitting under a tree, cross legged as she writing down things in a notepad, a soft hum emitting from her throat.</div>"

Ignoring the dragon's maniacal, Ocotl stared at the cat back. He could feel the presence of a demon coming from it, but he other than the strangely large mouth, it was a completely normal, black and grey cat. He followed the black dragon as he led him back, glancing back to the cat occasionally. It seemed to continue to glare at him, some kind of determination behind its round black eyes. Ocotl hummed as he stared at the cat, tilting his head slightly.

""Why do you stare at me so, Cat?"" he grumbled, smiling slightly. He felt there was more to this than a cat. The presence of a demon had lingered throughout the trip through the forest with the black dragon, and it hadn't been there before. This cat is definitely not a cat, he thought. 
""You've been glaring at me for a long while.""

Ocotl could faintly feel the presence of another demon in the tribe, besides the cat next to him, but it was too faint to make out. He glanced briefly behind him, but there was nothing visible in the trees besides the faint shimmer of the barrier.</div>"

He stared at him still, but with more of a curiosity than hatred. He had thought all other demons killed for fun and enjoyed others' misery. But this demon seemed humble, and just as curious about dragons as he was.

He still didn't trust this tree demon completely, however. He could simply be acting, waiting for the right moment to strike. Lynx put that in the back of his mind, though; not the main thing he focused on, but still in his mind should the demon attack.

He gave a kind look to the tree demon now. He didn't feel it was necessary to speak. He looked ahead of where they were walking, anticipating their arrival to the town.</div>"

It seems he had defeated two birds with one stone, as the shadow demon was gone, slithering off into an alleyway and the large berserker demon seemed to morph bodies, coming to a stop in the middle of the battle. ""Go ra tonth da la re mera!""(All shall crumble before my power and flee in terror!) Abraxas said as he slowly walked over to the now unconscious demon before him. How insulting that it would be sleeping in this battle, but Abraxas did not care as long as he killed it. Half way there a new threat could be heard. Human shouts and machinery, as he turned his head to humans approaching steadfast, some glad in armor others in clothes and the majority armed with weapons of war.

This demon would have to wait for now, as he had other matters to be worried with. He gave a bellow, and started to charge at the humans in their trucks. He was met by a barrage of bullets that bounced off his thick plates. The sight of a creature charging at them, taking no damage gave way to madness, with many breaking rank and running away back into the city. His spike sword on his right wrist elongated, and as he reached the first truck, he plunged it into the cab, crushing whoever was in. With his left hand he picked up a human in the bed and threw the poor fellow into a building. More bullets flew into him, one nicking him in the right eye, causing a temporary blindness. As he held his head, he was then rammed by a truck and sent sprawling backwards, his bulk smashing into a street lamp.

Coming to his senses he realized that they were trying to pin him down with rope and stones. Abraxas simply flexed his arms into the air, breaking the rope. It would take more then that to subdue him, that was for sure. His retaliation to their assault would result in another truck being destroyed by a fireball. The fight would be over soon.</div>"

He had asked it for a name, and it had decided to just ignore him, and after he had been nice enough to show it around. This caused the dragon to pout, upset and now considering whether he should even show such a rude being around or just kick him out of the tribe for trespassing like he should have done. 'As fun as that may be, I won't because unlike some talking tree people, I'm a proper gentlemen and would never go back on something I promised, for it would be rude.' Nexias, however, was soon distracted from his inner thoughts as he saw one of the child dragon's displays. He didn't know who they were, but that flower thing was incredible cool and Nexias cheered accordingly, yelling out shouts of approval, before he turned as he noticed a familiar scent. Quickly spotting his prey, Nexias quickly walked over, making sure his tree friend was following close behind as he did so.

""Oi Draken, long time, no see. How have you and your little human friend been doing? Wait, is that his face, wooooooooooow, I don't think I've ever seen him with his mask off, where is it? Oh man, Draken, guesss what, i finally did it, I've been saying I would for a while, but know I've finally did it! The Chickens of the Night are active, I can't wait to send them on their next mission, as today was just a test run of their ability to cause chaos with out alterations. I can't wait for the real fun to start? Any who, are their any hatchlings you watching today Draken, as that two headed one shows real promise with her flower thing, that was really cool. Not as cool as what I plan to do, but still pretty cool.""

There was no watch...not now, at least. I wanted it more than you would think. I've never owned a watch before, and the sight of my old crystalline hand with the watches still on its wrist tempted me. I didn't want to make a go for it, the fight with...whoever the monster was that still continued to terrorize the all of <span class=""bb-u"">not my problem</span> being one of the dumbest things I had done in a very long time; picking fights with demons was a silly uphill battle which would only cost me my newfound freedom.
Still...the other one was gone, I think? A faint sense of familiarity resonated with the now sleeping form. I wasn't about to excuse the possibility of a shape-shifter, and it was laying right next to my arm...my watches.

Ugh~

~~~~~~~~~

Keepa hesitated, peeking out at the carnage the other demon was wreaking upon the armored humans. A distraction enough, he darted out in his human form; the energy still processing, too weak from the fire spell to manage anything more. Quickly, he filched the decorative wristwear, glancing to the sleeping figure with psuedo-contemptful apathy, <span class=""bb-i"">well</span> aware of the events of less than a minute ago. Still, having managed the last fastening of the second watch, he looked back, imagining it might not be too unseemly for someone to...

~~~~~~~~~

What am I doing...he <span class=""bb-i"">just</span> attacked me. While I was trying to help, no less! I should just drain him dry and be done with it. Still, an answer would be nice. Attempting to do...well...<span class=""bb-i"">anything</span> with the figure proved fruitless as I couldn't even grasp them. I suppose my questions for the nameless ones would go unanswered. They disgusted me, being such a thorn in my side and, when it mattered, the only one of potential use reverting to such a vulnerable state.

Wasting
<span class=""bb-i"">My</span>
Time...

I slapped myself on my facecheeks with both hands to focus myself. 3:05 and 9:50...I shook my head lightly, doing my best to wake them as gently as reasonably possible while leaning over them. ""Sir? Are you alright, sir?"" I softly chirped, my expressions settling to genuine concern as I did what I could to rouse them from whatever slumber that had taken the fool. If they did not immediately wake, I would simply wash my hands of the issue.</div>"

Great, now he would have to get up and apologize to them for Insomnium's mess-making, again. Sometimes, Azous regretted ever creating that form, but it had it's uses. Hell, Azous didn't even know if he did make the form, but the general guess is that he's the original out of the forms so, he bares the blame for their conception. Again, fucking fantastic.

""Yeah, yeah, I'm alright"" He spoke directly into the other demon's mind, as he was unable to affect even the air to create soundwaves. Only reason he was visible was because the dimension he's tied to also works on a plane similar to this one, though he appears like a shadow to everyone who sees him. He has learned to be able to listen the surface thoughts he finds, allowing him to listen to what their saying and speak back. ""And I apologize for whatever injuries Insomnium may have caused in his rampaging. You're a demon yes, so you know of many of us having alternate forms, well mine are all self-aware, and Insomnium has a mean case of berserker rage. I deeply apologize for him harming you, but seeing as how you surivied then I glad. I've stopped trying to hold him back from such actions a long time ago, as it happens too many times. Anyway, we should be on our way then, while that other demon keeps the hunter's off our backs."" Azous finished, before lifting himself off the ground and motioning for the other being to lead the way.

She was glad Lucatiel didnt mind her being around. Happy as same that the crystal dragon wasnt angry or blaming her or her lady for the past events. Poking Siabel in the side to encourage her. Hearing her lady sigh in return, the human planed to go and speak to Myrtle again but wanted to ensure her lady gets a bit out of her shell she was hiding away in Nexias cave. After she made sure her Lady was socializing she will search up the other human girl in the tribe.
It was the festival and it was more than needed for her lady to socialize with her fellow dragons. There was no better place for that than staying at the crystal shop. At least thats how Momo saw the situation.

And the crystal dragon beside beautifully, was a really warm feeling person at least to the human judgement.
''My Lady would you allow me to stay together with you to be  lady Lucatiel company?'' She beamed happily. Seeing the dragon behind them she made a bow towards him or her. She couldnt guesses yet which gender the compact form could be of the shop visitor.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Siabel</div>

There was no around it, well she didnt plan to avoid it. ''I allow it and hope you wouldnt mind me either. I hope your shop had many crystals traded with other dragons this past few days?'' Siabel smiled not minding the curios stare she felt on herself Instead walking to the table and sat down on the chair where a while ago Sealameet sat. '' Please do your duties as a shop keeper wouldnt want to let your customers be inpatient.'' She spoke to the crystal dragon leaning her head on her arm legs crossing.


<div class=""bb-h2"">Mirazan</div>

One after another of the child showed their magic. Some did better some did worse. Her mind wasnt fully on the task of judging them. Mostly being a worry bag to begin with she was getting nearly hourly information about the happenings around. She never saw a demon in person. Being one of the youngest grand grandmothers. This whole festival was just too eventfully and not of the good kind. 

Judging along with what the other grand grand parents said, giving her voice to the decision of the majority. She was quite aware the moment Draken sat down in the stands too. She wasnt the one for the idea of him being there. She only respected the dragons with more experience than her explaining how it would be  much better having him in the tribe.

Why exactly, she didnt knew, but her instincts did not saw him as a danger. It was more the fear a happy go lucky dragon would challenge the exiled dragon and cause chaos in the tribe. There was a lot on her mind.

She let her gaze down smiling at the nervous child in front of them all. The two headed dragon started performing and it looked adorable and beautiful. The work together between the heads were quite nice.

''The heads work nice together.'' Said the one of the heads of the 3 headed dragon smirking at her before following the patterns created.
''It smell nice'' Mirazan replied to the other GGF watching the dying of the flower, the green mist still a bit in the air. 
There was a few whispering words between the grand grand parents which Mirazan passively listened too.
''... when heads start to work together they get easier older.''
''Well it did looked impressive but not as well as the fire child from a bit ago.''
''... Dont be so strick, in your eyes no one would ever age.''
''Hahha, fine fine I awaited just some more from Drakens offspring. It looks just so tame and innocent.''

Some moments passed the whispering between grandpa grand parents ended and one after another they started to tell their choose.
''Passed.''
''You grow.''
''Aged.''
...
Mirazan smiled '' Damia you are now a teen. You are free to follow your will explore the world and find the life you want to live. I wish you all the best.'' She said warmly to the two headed dragon before moving her head to look at the last child standing and waiting. '' Come forth its your turn. ''


Her eyes wandered again to Draken now talking to another dragon and.... She wasnt sure what that was....the only thing she knew was it wasnt a dragon. She didnt recognized it as one. Confused for a few moments longer before the other grand grand parents started to react. The 3 headed ones mid head growled loud enough the whole arena heard him more than clear. ''Dragon! What are you doing!'' It growled but Mirazan raised her hand. '' Nexias, are you aware of what your companions are? Its a disgrace to interrupt the aging ceremony. ''She sighed looking and observing the situation especially curios she was on Drakens reaction. Was that tree thing a demon? 

''Continue child. '' She encouraged the poor dragon who was scared for life from the 3 headed dragon growling the world away.



<div class=""bb-h2"">Chu</div>

He was grinning as he watched Damia shyly perform the magic. It looked even more impressive than a few days ago he remembered. Seeing Aster as the water and fire dragon sat beside him. He wrapped his hand around Aster shoulder and gave him a peek on the cheek. '' You came just in time, its Damia turn. I am sure the ggp will let her get older.'' Chu hummed. Watching the show slowly end and the oldest dragon whisper something between them. 
''What would you like to do after this? Want to have a romantic walk in the woods or preferring the waterfalls?'' He whispered to Aster switching his attention back as he was listening as one after another they declared the child to a teen. 
''Congrats! You made it!'' Chu called out with full lungs. Being happy for anyone who aged. '' Cannot to wait who the new adults will become tomorrow. You know I bet there will be quite a few eggs dropped at the nursery after tomorrow. '' Chu laughed being in high spirit and back to his normal happy go lucky self.

It was quite a shock as he nuzzled Aster shoulder with his head hearing the growl. Several rows and seats away was the place all the GGP were staring at. It was easy to recognize Draken and the human sitting beside him. '' How about we go now? '' Chu offered Aster as he found it would be good not to get involved this time around. It wasnt his fault so he was quite happy  about that. 


<div class=""bb-h2"">Moris</div>

Not too far away from the rampage in the bar ''Happy Drunk'' Moris cleaned a glass. No one arrived yet, and the sounds of explosion could be heard, they were weak but still noticeable. From his years of experience they couldnt be too far away.Maybe from the marketplace? Limping as he walked to one of the tables cleaning the already clean table. He busied himself it wasnt his problem. He was in pension thanks to the incident several years ago. 

He didnt have to act at all. Just a limping middle aged bartender that what he was. Another explosion this time weaker sounding. He couldnt hold it. Going to the window he raised the covers that kept his guest away from the street eyes. Well more of a shaggy alleyways eyes. Hidden by towering buildings all around. He couldnt see anything at all. Cursing under his breath he put the covers back, the door was having the open sign on it. Just as he walked in his slow pace to the door, it opened.

A man selling watches collapsed in front of his feet. Looking up at him before he all but hugged Moris legs. '' It was horrible so horrible.''Started the man to whine crying in the ex hunters pants. His face cringed, grabbing the man by the collar he pulled him up and pushed in one of the chairs. His mumbling about blood and being eaten alive was more than annoying. He poured him a glass of cheep alcohol. ''Its on house, just get you self together and speak again when you are able to think properly.....or more properly.'' Moris said the man gulping the alcohol away and started talking.

''It...It started with the weird customer...I...He wanted two watches to buy and I was thinking how strange he was talking ready to....call the guars, so much blood...''

''Concentrating.'' Moris snarled making the man stiff up and like a charm continue. '' I..I saw the man fly by ....He hit the wall like a r-ragdoll the blood...the blood was everywhere.'' The watch sales man shock. ''I saw it the big ..with spikes... demon. I started to run I wanted to go back and get my gold...But then I saw it eat...it ripped meat off a ...I..I think it was a man off. '' Moris watched as the man face sunk in his hands. Making out the words scared, peeing, running, and hunter.

The last probably referring to himself Moris, not may knew he was a ex hunter from his customers, only the regulars knew it. The man crying  and shaking in front of him was one of them. Moris poured the man another glass of alcohol it was hard for him not to go and check himself. He had no physical condition for it anymore. His back was not what it was before the injury. 

''They will...they will do something right?''
''Who?'' MOris said barely giving attention to the man. His eyes were set on his door.
''Who? The guild! The hunter guild!They will do something!''

He stayed silent, Moris felt it in his bones tonight demons were close, the conversation from earlier today echoing in his mind. It could be....it could be they wouldnt do anything....they will let it run wild and wait to power out....letting who knows how many of the innocent untrained people die in their place... All to ensure their hide is safe in the future. The glass broke in Moris hands cutting his hand. The glass he didnt even notice he was cleaning.
He grunted as a response to it all.</div>"

""I understand."" At the mention of his mask, Ezekiel instinctively touched his face, grazing his hand over his right eye. He had only started wearing it because of that; people would stare and ask questions and choose to focus on the eye patch he wore rather than his words. But most never questioned the skull. Maybe it was because he had always had a reputation for being odd, or maybe people didn't find it a good idea to question a man wearing a skull. Even if it had started in anger and spite, it had practically become his face. ""It does feel odd without it, but in the long run it's trivial. I forgot how bright the world was.""

Draken seemed particularly interested in the dragon currently up. She had a good performance, in Ezekiel's opinion. His standards were low, considering he hadn't seen many displays, but he admired the gentleness of the show. ""I like the grace."" He commented, taking his attention off the display to look at his god. ""Do you know them, my lord?"" It was hard to judge years when it came to dragons, but they seemed too far apart to really know each other well.

A dragon Ezekiel had seen few times in the past approached, with another beast in tow. It certainly wasn't a dragon, or a human. He wasn't sure what it was, exactly, even with his knowledge on different species and races. With his lord he wasn't worried, but they weren't exactly something he would approach on his own. His weary look lasted for only a split second before turning to Nexias. The dragon talked at a mile a minute, as usual. Much of the conversation went right over his head, as it wasn't directed at him, but he found slight amusement in the questioning of his mask. He would have a fun time explaining that to the church. Most, if not all of the orphans had never seen his face before. He gave a welcoming nod to the dragon, but not putting himself in the conversation as he focused on the elders discussing the child's performance.

One of the elders kept looking to Draken. He knew his lord's appearance wasn't appreciated by everyone, but the dragon had to be thinking something. After all, the rest of the council didn't seem to pay him any mind. He wasn't about to question the subject. Lost in his thoughts, he was snapped back into reality when the council addressed Nexias. They didn't sound too pleased. Whatever that tree was, it didn't belong here. He almost felt sorry for the dragon in the arena, so nervous already before the growling of three unimaginably powerful dragons.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Milhoro</div>
The other demons seemed to be having a hell of a time trying to kill one another. Or, maybe they were just trying to establish dominance. Or, most likely, they were all just pissed off and this was as good as an excuse as any to fight. The one had fallen, but not from defeat...Milhoro wanted to investigate, but their opponents already seemed to be on that. He wasn't about to get himself into a mess because of his curiosity.
 
His attention was taken with the other's as shouts ad the sounds of machinery drew near. Milhoro stepped down from the broken down slags of concrete, caustic shadows melting through the cracks. The humans, armed to the teeth, didn't frighten him. After all, if he could quell a hoard of demons, anything else would be easy. One could question the intelligence of someone who chose to go up against a demon, but he respected their dedication to their cause.

The other demon looked to have no problem with taking the humans head on. That was fine. It gave Milhoro a chance to pick his angle. He noticed that as the brazen demon attacked, there were deserters. Cowards. If they were in his army, he'd have them hunted down and crucified. And while he didn't necessarily have the time to do that to them himself, he could certainty teach them a lesson. Lucky for him, most of the remaining humans seemed focused on the tank slaughtering them. A few weary stragglers around the edges spotted the shadow, but their vocal chords were rotted out before their screams could be heard.

He cut off the deserters, immediately going for one in the center. The demon pounced, leaving only a rotting, unrecognizable mess of parts in his wake. Bullets were upon him, and he felt his patience running short very quickly as his tar-like blood started to coagulate. ""Save a bullet for yourselves."" His voice was deep, quiet, monotone; the last thing many of the deserters would hear.</div>"

He had no idea that dragons could learn such delicate magic. He looked around to see all the dragons around him, thriving as a society. It amazed Lynx. He was extremely happy that he was able to experience this moment.

The feeling of awe turned to horror as he heard one of the dragons growl with what seemed to be anger. Lynx tensed up a little, ready to flee if he felt necessary. His attention turned to one of the very large dragons who seemed to be running this whole event. Another dragon turned to the dragon who was holding Lynx, which Lynx now knew was called Nexias, about knowing what his guests were. Lynx's anxiety levels were at a maximum, as he thought the other dragon was referring to him. He felt a surge of fear run through him. He still wasn't sure if dragons hated demons or not, but from the looks of it, it seemed as if they wanted them dead just as much as the humans did.</div>"

The black haired individual watched the young dragon's display, a much more prettier and passive approached compared to most of his other hatchlings who often tried to be bold and just as outrageous with their magic as his own. He supposed it was not a bad thing however, Damia was still quite a young dragon and pretty flowers could have thorns. Her magic simply didn't quite grow them just yet. But still impressive enough he supposed. If used aggressively, she might not do so bad.

At Ezekiel's question, the Dragon God simply chuckled. <font color=""red"">""One of my youngest offspring. Damia I believe her mother named. I admit, she doesn't have quite the force as the others, but having the only one to have grace with their magic. Especially for a two headed dragon.""</font> he mused before turning his head as a familiar scent drifted in his nose and a voice called out.

Glancing his red eyes to the approaching figure, a amused smirk crossed the elder's lips as he saw the dragon Nexias. Who eagerly spoke to him in the usual fast crazy manor. Of course, dragging along demons. Nexias was a odd individual, perhaps just like Draken but in a slightly different way. But that's what made it fun really. Their magic was also not quite so different if one thought about it, which was perhaps why they got along well. That and both enjoyed driving just about everyone else insane.

<font color=""red"">""Awe Nex, it indeed has been a long time. We have been well, though some hatchlings decided to swipe Ezekiel's mask. It's been a long time since he's been without it.""</font> he mused before smirking a little at the chicken comment.

<font color=""red"">""Excellent, Nex, I knew you could accomplish such a feet. Those under the chaos of the Chickens of the Night shall never know what shall befall them.""</font> he chuckled with a hum before glancing back to the young green dragon. <font color=""red"">""Awe yes, I believe that one there is the youngest, last child aged dragon of my hatchlings. She's a bit more passive and graceful compared to the others more destructive power, but she's still young and her magic can prove promising with time.""</font> he said before looking to the demons.

<font color=""red"">""I see you're enjoying bringing in new creatures with you.""</font> Draken mused before listening to a growl come from the three headed elder.

As the elders spoke, Draken simply smirked in amusement, obviously showing very little to no worry upon his calm mischievous expression.

<font color=""red"">""Oh do show control of your temper dear elder. Wouldn't want be called going senile now would you? The poor hatchlings have worked so hard to show you what you got, the least you could do is pay attention rather than worrying about little flies.""</font> Draken mused with a smirk before looking to Nexias.

<font color=""red"">""If your plan was to annoy the Great Grandparents, I quite approve.""</font> he chuckled to the younger dragon.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Damia</div>

The two-headed dragon shifted uncomfortably as she listened and watched the elders carefully discussing. Her long body shifting side to side as if to to slightly pace in place. Nervous about if she would make it or not or if she did well enough. She trained extra hard after hearing Draken was here and she wanted to do her best. It was a lot of pressure on her and being one of his hatchlings. 

As the final verdict was given, the two headed dragon brightened as she was declared a teen. Both heads chirping and flapping the wings excitedly as she flew in circles.

<font color=""lime"">""Yes yes yes yes!""</font> the left head cheered joyfully.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Hah! I knew I could do it! No sweat!""</font> the right head smirked more confidently.

<font color=""lime"">""Oh shush! No need to brag so much! We were soooo nervous!""</font> the left head spoke before both head bowed a little to the elders before fluttering out from the clearing, spinning and flying in twists and circles energetically. 

<font color=""green"">""Thank you Chu!""</font> Both heads chirped as they flew over the earth dragon.


<div class=""bb-h2"">Aster</div>
Aster blushed a little as the earth dragon wrapped a arm around him and kissed his cheek. Ever since they had returned, the earth dragon had been... Quite lovey Davey as Myrtle would put it. More so than the regular flirting he usually did. Despite how easily flustered he got, Aster found that he didn't really mind it. Even though he called Chu a idiot for coming into the Hunters Guild to rescue him after trying to keep him safe, it felt nice that someone would come from him. Expecting the same abandonment he felt as a hatchling.

When Chu mentioned Damia, Aster smiled as he watched the child dragon perform. <font color=""plum"">""Yeah she's been working hard so I'm sure she will do fine.""</font> he said before blushing deeper as Chu asked what to do and the dual magic dragon shrugged a little. <font color=""plum"">""U-Um.. A walk through the forest doesn't sound so bad.""</font> he answered, his face reddening deeper at the nuzzles before Damia finished and passed, then he started pausing as a elder started growling.

At Chu's suggestion on leaving, Aster nodded in agreement. <font color=""plum"">""Sounds good to me.""</font> he answered before lightly kissing the earth dragon on the cheek briefly before darting off ahead of him towards the forest.</div>"

They went about explaining themselves, an expression which settled with the demon in a strange way. Fluctuating their brows to express hesitant concern, Keepa lifted his hands to the figure's shoulder region before pulling back, remembering the...<span class=""bb-i"">not</span> which was the figure who showed no reminisce of a pulse of any sort. So detached, there was nothing for Keepa to cling to. The lack of sensation left a bad taste in his mouth.

~~~
""My, that sounds like an unfortunate hand you've been delt"" I say with a small chuckling inflection, relieved that what, or from what he said, 'who', was at least in control of themselves. ""Thankfully none of the damage...ehh"" I started, unsure how to reassure him in regards to the damage he'd done. So much damage had been done with the needless outbursts of the demons; the loss calculated in both blood and gold...there would be so much sadness caused by today's events and for what?

""Well, I suppose its best not to dwell on what you couldn't control. If only others were as fortunate as to have the ability to simply come back. Hm~"" My words coming with genuine disappointment as I broke character, seeing no reason to deceive something I couldn't make a gain from. His comment on the other demon reminded me of the situation. I was weaker then when I had started, thanks to the flames. In that, there were many reasons to hate my new associate...and the numbers seemed to stack up by the minute. 

3:05 and 9:50...9:51. I have to remember to synchronize the hands.

""We should"" I muse as I turn to trot back down the ally I had hid in, checking my clothes to make sure they had reformed the way I liked them, even down to the slight heel of the boots which echoed light clicks with each step.
~~~~~~~~~

Emerging from the other side, Keepa was almost run over by a guard who was running in the direction of the event. ""Oh! I'm sorry, ma'am. You should get to safety! There are reports of a demon in the vicinity!"" he says in urgency, looking down the street as the sounds of screams of his fellow soldiers robbed him of the last of his resolve. He turned back to Keepa, ""Uhh, let me get you to the garrison, it'll be safe there"" taking their arm and starting to drag them off down the street. ""I- I should be fine, sir. I-"" Keepa tried to explain, looking back at their nameless friend with a <span class=""bb-i"">'what do I do?'</span> expression. The guard hadn't even noticed Azous, more concerned about finding an excuse to not be slaughtered like the rest.</div>"

Nexias eyes snapped between Draken and the newly aged teen, a hint of surprise easily visible on his face. ""I would never have guessed, she must take after her mother then. She seems very much unlike you, in both looks and use of magic. But still, you must be proud to have her be apart of your bloodline. I have begun thinking that I need to find a mate soon, raise a brood, teaching them how to spread chaos across the land, can you imagine it?!?!"" Nexias began to get excited, but then quickly sobered when he thought about what would have to come before that, taking care of them. He would not lie, he'd hate irt, but he also couldn't bear the thought of leaving a hatchling to fend for itself or with his partner, a ferling born from his own abandonment by his parents. He was about to ask Draken for his advice on the matter,when heard a growl being sent in his direction. As hewas berated, Nexias didn't move, except to olace the cat down on a shadowed pedastal he'd summoned. He then turned around, and fixed the 3-headed elder with a cold glare, the grass beneath him beginning to writhe and darken as Madness and Shadow magic radiated from his being. Shadows began to undulate and dance, whispers began to enter the minds of all but the most powerful present, and Nexias let out a growl of his own, a derp menacing growl.the reverberate throughout the air.

""Elder, these are my guests, so please, treat them with respect that is due to them. If you have a problem, I can gladly demonstrate my magical abilities right now, in a duel, though I doubt that'd fair to those who have yet to take the ceremoney. So please, Elder, apologize to my guests for being as rude as you were.""


Azous

Azous shrugged his shoulders when the other demon looked to him for help.

""Do whatever you want, it's only a human, though I would suggest not killing him, as it might draw undue attention ourway"" Azous said to her telepathicly, following her and the human and waiting to see what the demon would do.</div>"

He decide even if he wouldnt join the fight, at least he will try and get a observation of it. Telling the man to go home to his family Moris stepped out of the bar, locking behind himself he started limping thougth the alleyways. Many memories passed his mind, remembering when he was a young apprentice.

<span class=""bb-i"">He was watching the cage with the captured creature. His mentor writing things in his report. A demon was there, he felt scared as he was watching from a safe distance how the other hunters were taking ... the thing down. He felt amazement and wished to fight just like his brother and sister by guild.
''Move away ya.'' His mentor warned as they placed  a blanket over the caged demon. '' They try to bite even when they are in the cage. ''
'' Why dont we kill it on the spot?'' 
''Moris, Moris, naive. Demons are different than dragons. There were demons who faked their death to escape and demons who when died would let out poison and shadows that would drive crazy if not kill everyone around as a act of revenge. Those beast are driven by revenge and battle. They do not know reason, and dont want to follow it.''
'' So what do we do with them?'' The young Moris asked his mentor.
''Hold them captive, and when we are sure how to kill them we will do just that.'' His mentor smiled ordering to have the cage moved on the transporter.</span> He lied, they never intended to kill them but research them. He spit in the trash bin he passed by, taking out a flask to take a drink. He  felt his back pain, its way to complain for Moris to slow down as he walked. 

Moris ignored it, it goal was one of the highest building close by, from its roof top he could clearly see what was going in the marketplace. He didnt continue walking as he felt another feeling, he felt watched. SOmething was close by his instincts perked a shiver running down his spine.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Chu</div>

Chu waves at the flying by new teen. Happy about the congratulations. The peek on his cheek made him grin and giggle. Standing up and offering his hand to Aster, as his response to the gently act. '' Lets go~'' He hummed quite flirtatious including a wink as they made their way around and out the Arena. He looked behind as they were leaving it just in time to see Nexias use his magic and all but challenge the grand grand parents. 

''Nexia really likes to irritate the grandgrand parents....well he teases them quite differently than I do. '' Chu chuckled remembering how often he teased the ggp about various things. Waving his hand away he made his way to the forest area with Aster, the earth dragon happy he wasnt part of it. 
After that Chu wrapped his hands around Aster waist as they were walking grinning wide. '' You look tired? Did Myrtle tired you out? She is quite energetic.'' He laughed a bit, passing several dragons on their way in regular and compact form alike. '' I saw her draw and make noted about anything there was. What do you think of gifting her more paper?'' 


<div class=""bb-h2"">Mirazan</div>

The reaction was more not a positive one. Nexia reacting with a challenge to the one stronger than him even releasing his influencing magic all over the place. The sound of sobbing took her attention as the child performing couldnt handle the voice it started to hear and simply run out the arena.

''Well that ended the today ceremony, so no need to worry about the senile'' She said, moving from her seat to stand and looking at Nexias and Draken. She was thinking how to handle the situation further. It was Sandy who chipped in. '' Oh lets have a little battle Nexias I am always up to look into a mind like yours and do things to it~'' The Grand Grandparent shifted  to his compact form opening his arms in a welcoming hug. It was the green head Ne of the 3 headed dragon who spoke the softest in this situation. '' How about we all say sorry. I dont think humans can handle the voices Nexais makes. And I liked that white one. '' The head spoke with a nearly child like voice being stared on by the other two for a moment.

''If they are your guest Nexias than tell us at least their names. You are taking the responsibility for their action or?'' Mirazan questioned him, her skin emitting a warm and comforting light around the arena to subtle the magic of the other shadow dragon, and Sandy  was helping out placing in any weaker dragon the feeling of security and hope. There was no reason in  the GGP eyes to make other dragons be bothered by the mischief of one. Even if it was a situation where many hatching could die on the hands of the creatures Nexias was calling guest.</div>"

She was one of his children? He wasn't even aware the god had any. It made sense for a 2,000 year old dragon to have children, but it was a topic previously never brought up, and Ezekiel never thought about it. Draken didn't sound too impressed with her performance, but his comment still held an overall positive tone. ""I think it shows nice potential."" It didn't hold the same power to influence as Draken's did, but it definitely held other uses.

It wasn't surprising to hear Draken instigating something of an argument. While he knew when to stop, he always wanted to have the last word. Nexias, however, seemed to <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> want the last word. Before Ezekiel could fully figure out what the dragon was doing, he heard something. He looked up to Draken, curious, did he say something? But one voice turned to ten, and the ten continued to grow further.  Someone was talking, but so were a thousand others, all trying to command his attention. He doubled over, running his fingers through his hair, muttering in a futile attempt to drown out the whispering. 

Coming back to his senses, Ezekiel slowly straightened his posture, letting out an uncharacteristically nervous laugh. If nothing else, it was good to know exactly what other dragons were capable of. ""Is...Is everything alright, my Lord?"" He wasn't exactly sure why he was asking that question. Maybe it was to get his bearings, or maybe to make sure that he himself was still there. Most likely a mix of both. The elders were still addressing Nexias, so it couldn't have lasted that long. He sighed, leaning against his god once more.</div>"

The older dragon listened to Nexias yammer on, seeming quite surprised Damian was one of his hatchlings. It wasn't too surprising considering she was very different from himself. 

<font color=""red"">""Mhmm yes, but our magic shares one thing of common. Ability to cause either pleasant feelings or torment. Mind is just on a mental scale while hers is more physical.""</font> he mused as he noted Damia's ability to create a pleasant scent and also a foul one. While he could make dreams or nightmares. It made him a little curious what her magic would grow into as she matured.

As the insanity dragon rattled off on having his own possible children, the older dragon chuckled in amusement. Having a lot of mini Nexias's? Everyone would probably go completely insane. That would indeed be a wonderful sight and of course the elder would encourage it. Though before he could say anything, Nexias grew angry, releasing some of his magical power and causing those around him to experience the magic. Draken rolled his Crimson eyes before looking to the human who was having issues dealing with the magic.

Lightly, Draken brushed a hand through the white hair, black mist forming around it and seeping into the boy's mind. Ezekiel would feel a calming sensation, and Nexias's magic nullified as Draken's magic overpowered it to ease the human. Listening to the boy's words, the Dragon God chuckled softly.

<font color=""red"">""It's fine, Nex does things like this all the time. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if he was unknowingly hatchling of mine or related. Always causing trouble. He gets more carried away though. I should probably scold him for doing such a thing with you hear, but I can help with that. It wouldn't be alright if I wasn't present however. Your mind would of probably exploded.""</font> he mused as he mildly listened to the conversation between Nexias and Great Grandparents. The poor child dragon having fled in terror.

Still as the human leaned against him, the black haired compacted form dragon held the priest closer. Lightly petting the white hair before looking to Nexias with a slight amused smirk as Mirazan's questioned on the names before looking to Ezekiel with a grin. 

<font color=""red"">""Well since dear Nex scared off the last hatchling, is there anything you would like to do now Ezzy?""</font> he chirped, obviously calmer then the rest of the dragons around that were a bit riled up by the demons and Nexias.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Damia</div>

The newly made teen was flying in circles in the hair, happily chatting with some other young dragons who passed as well. Though soon paused as there was a ruckus in the clearing with the elders and Nexias. Both heads tilted to the sides a little she flew a little closer to hear what was being said. Looking to the odd looking creatures, she blinked a little more.

<font color=""lime"">""What are they?""</font> the left head asked.

<font color=""springgreen"">""They smell funny.""</font> the right head snorted a little.

<font color=""lime"">""Maybe they are friendly?""</font> the left head suggested.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Or maybe they want to eat eggs? Or as weird and insane as Nexias.""</font> The right countered.

<font color=""lime"">""Nexias is a funny dragon though.""</font> the left said.

Pondering for a moment, the dragon looked to see what seemed to be Draken. And seemed unsure if she should speak to him or not. A bit nervous and unsure if she managed to impress him enough to earn his attention. 

<font color=""springgreen"">""Let's go and talk!""</font> the right head said confidently.

<font color=""lime"">""But he may not like me.""</font> the left said softly.


<div class=""bb-h2"">Aster</div>

Shyly taking the offered hand and blushed at the flirting, Aster walked with the Earth dragon, glancing back as the commotion only got worse. Glancing to Chu at his words, Aster smiled softly and nodded in agreement. Nexias was always such a strange dragon, hard to understand really.

<font color=""plum"">""Yeah, but at least you don't cause that much trouble.""</font> the red haired man chuckled, shifting a little as Chu wrapped a arm around him, but leaned into him slightly.

At the question, the dual element dragon sighed softly and nodded. <font color=""plum"">""Yeah, she's a very energetic human. She makes me feel like a elder. She's been eagerly studying everything there is about us and even sketching dragons. Even had me posing for one. Even drew Draken. Paper might be a good gift, she's probably running out soon.""</font> he answered with a soft amused smile before looking to Chu and lightly ruffling the brown hair.

<font color=""plum"">""How about you? Been able to handle all the hatchlings in the nursery? A lot of the babies who turned into a child have been more energetic.""</font> he chuckled.</div>"

They were light and unable to put up much of a fight, but enough to make the guard stop. ""What are-"" he started as the demon hopped on one leg, pulling the guard in and gripping his shoulder with their free arm. Pulling them down as they fell, there was an audible <span class=""bb-i"">'crack'</span> from their face being mashed into Keepa's exposed knee, just above the ridge of their boot. A small chip of Keepa's flesh clinked to the ground as well as away from their other knee which soaked the brunt of the cobblestone, knocking the guard out cold.

They held their arms out to the side in a passive shrug style, letting the man slump to the ground before standing and patting down their clothes. ""So, what do <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> do?"" They asked, making the motion of dusting their palms which sent a few sparks noisily from the contact. The question was in regards to Azous' comment about different forms and their purposes; Keepa being 'interested' in what this form was supposed to accomplish. He wasn't one for getting his hands dirty, and had seen ten times the action today than they had over the course of the last few months...
Well, that wasn't saying much, but still...</div>"

Azous watched as the other demon assaulted the man, possibly killing him if Azous was any judge. When the demon asked him what he did, Azous demonstrated by putting his hand through a building, then through the demon, before finally sitting down. ""Nothing, I'm rather detached from this plane of reality, so nothing can affect me, and I can't affect anything in return. Useful for making getaways from hunters when I feel the need, except when they have dragon-bone weapons of a dimensional nature. Those are the only thinks that can harm or hold me, and hopefully they all burned in the fire. Either way, I'm rather tired now due to the amount of energy goes into conversing with people, and will leave you in the hands of my much more approachable persona, bye now."" Azous gave a wave, then the shadow around him seemed to expand, his blue eyes darkening as they did, until it burst sending shadows everywhere. Where Azous had once stood, there was now a teenage looking boy with long bangs of black and white hair. He stared at the person in front of him with bright red eyes, before giving them a wide smile, showing off his fang-like teeth, as he put his hand out. ""How ya doing, my name's Gaiden, and it's a pleasure to meet you. Also, nice moves on that cowardly hunter their, he ain't going to be waking up any time soon.""

Nexias

And just like that, with those few words, all was right again. Nexias hostility, and the effects of his magical energy, all disappeared as if it had never been their in the first place. The hatchling that ran away, suddenly could remember why it had been doing such a thing. Such was the way Madness struck, it could be here one moment, gone the next, a spontaneous reaction to the pain and suffering of life.

""See, that's all I wanted, and as for their names. I honestly have no idea, hell, I didn't even know that the cat wasn't a cat. Though I should have guessed when it didn't run away from me like most animals do, but I was just hoping I had finally found the one that hadn't. But no need to worry about them trying anything, I'm watching them like a hawk, and if they even think of doing something to harm the village, I would thrust them into a world of madness, pain, and degradation for what seems like an eternity. But I'm positive it won't come to that, as both just seemed to be simply curious about the village, and I was eager to educate. And what better way to educate them then by letting them see a duel between two dragon's, please tell me you weren't pulling my leg with that one, Ne, please, please, please. I'm always up for a little one on one action......... That didn't sound half as right as I thought it did, yet it didn't sound a fourth as wrong as you though ti ti did, and I ramble nonsense when excited so let's just shut up and fight already."" 

As Nexias spoke, his excitement became more and more clear, ashe really wanted o show his stuff in a duel. It was his favorite way to prove his strength, the presentations were nice, but fighting was his being, his soul, his existence. If you took fighting away from hims, you'd have nothing but insanity, and even that would be harshly dimmed and dull. He was practically jumping in place, and they were getting bigger with every passing moment.</div>"

She nodded to the human girl who had bowed to her, a grin visible on her face. She thought it was nice to see a human who didn't get scared right away from seeing a dragon, even though she figured the girl was used to seeing them anyway. She then looked around the shop she entered. The inside wasn't really familiar, but from the outside it was, having passed by it many times. Syrilth figured she hadn't visited the shop in quite a while. She turned to the crystal dragon, whom she figured was the shopkeeper, and found herself straining her neck to look up at the dragon. Thus she transformed to her dragon form, a black-scaled dragon with white fur on its top side. 

""May I ask of what you have in store?"" Syrilth questioned the crystal dragon.</div>"

The resulting explosion shook the area causing yet another fire to spring up as the carcass of the building crumbled in on itself. He stood still, breathing heavily as his actions had drained him down greatly but it had seemed the all life in the market was either dead, or unnatural and this pleased him. The fires of the area were choking the sky with a thick smoke, now most likely visible for miles around the area. The pervasive powers given off seemed to warp the area slightly, as many of the areas touched by the demons had started to show signs of corruption and decay. Such was the power that some gave off it effected the very area that they were in, and this area looked now somewhat alien. Abraxas then picked up a dead human guard and started to eat. He needed to regain his strength for whatever would come next, for he had no idea what this place was capable of and he had not yet seen any hunters. Something was amiss and he would have his guard on high alert, that was for sure.</div>"

He had tried to pay attention to their conversation, but it never felt like the right time to say anything. Nexias, the black dragon, talked a lot.
<span class=""bb-i"">He seems protective, but very talkative and chaotic. I'm beginning to dislike him even more</span>, Ocotl thought to himself. He didn't like people who talked a lot, but he was willing to tolerate them. 

He peered beyond Nexias' form to see some kind of ceremony going on. Dragons of different shapes and sizes produced unusual magic displays, or fought courageously against other dragons like them. Elements flew back and forth, during the ceremonies, lighting up the large, open space of the ceremony grounds. He looked back at the group gathered near him, joints creaking slightly again.

The group was larger now, other dragons having joined the motley crew, seemingly friends of Nexias. A dragon, taking the form of a small, blonde-haired child, was one of the newcomers. A bright light seemed to radiate from her, and Ocotl could tell that she was very powerful. There was almost a hum of energy around her, the air slightly distorting like a mirage. She was somehow familiar, but if he had known her, it was from many years ago, back when his Master was still alive. She did not seem to act with a child either, acting with a decisiveness only reserved for those of old age. <span class=""bb-i"">She would probably be the most powerful one here</span>, he thought to himself. <span class=""bb-i"">And the oldest.</span> Nexias had a dangerous look on him again, talking to the child-form dragon.

""See, that's all I wanted, and as for their names. I honestly have no idea, hell, I didn't even know that the cat wasn't a cat..."" he said, rambling on about something or another, getting excited later as he went on. Ocotl blinked slowly, waiting for him to finish speaking. He realized that he hadn't said his name or even introduced himself, and regardless Nexias had somehow trusted him. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe he would be a good ally to have after all...</span> Ocotl thought to himself. 

""I apologize for not having introduced myself,"" Ocotl rumbled, addressing the group, his black eyes twinkling. ""I go by Ocotlantli, but you may call be Ocotl. I do not wish to harm anyone, I am merely looking for something."" He glanced at the cat. He would have some explaining to do, most likely, for nobody knew his name.
He looked at the blonde-haired dragon, humming briefly. 
""Did you happen to know of a Dragon, like you, very gifted in the ways of nature?"", he asked her. ""I have been trying to find his home-place. One as long-lived as you may know, yes?""</div>"

""Well there isn't much to do, with the ceremonies and tests going on most will be there but I thank you for your compliment,"" she replied "",I would probably be there myself if it wasn't for my condition."" She weaved herself around the shop with ease, doing simple tasks all the while she talked.""I must say though I find it interesting that you have a human companion. She's the first human I've actually had come around.""

He watched from a distance of the commotion that had begun with Mirazan. He had been helping judge when suddenly things seemed to of stopped while she confronted some creature that wasn't a dragon. From what he had gathered about recent events some of the grandparents were on edge which he could understand, they had to be cautious about humans for if they discovered the village there was no telling what would happen. More then likely utter chaos and fighting.</div>"

Siabel listened to her, wondering why does her brother help her out so she could go watch. Maybe she was the type of dragon who wouldnt want to brother others. Not questioning her she waved her hand at the question. '' You mean Momo? She isnt my companion more like a pet like a lap dog of a rich lady.....or part of my horde, a piece that I like to watch.'' Siabel explained it simply rephrasing her words so to make it more understandable to dragons. Assuming if she for first time meet a human there could be good chance she didnt know much about human culture.

''You can ask her what ever crosses your mind, if it amuses you.'' Siabel offered, on which Momo nodded. '' I would really be happy to explain anything I know. To you too.'' At the last bit she turned around towards the shop exploring dragon asking what there was for sale. Momo her self still was more than impressed with all the crystal art pieces Lucatiel made with her powers. If she had those powers, momo dreamed for a moment, she wouldnt find the heart to sell them off. She was more of a collector than a creator when it came to art. Snapping back she continued. '' I my self am really curios about the views dragons have of the world. And would love if you allow my curiosity to be answered. My Name Is Momo.''

The human girl raised her dress a bit making a bow as she introduced herself. Carefully walking up to her lady Siabel and smiling for approve at her. Which the wind dragon after rolling her eyes petted the top of Momos head. '' Good girl, want a cracker?''
''I am no bird Lady Siabel.'' Came the chuckled answer from the human.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Chu</div>

Chu was beaming inside when Aster leaned into his arm as they entered the forest. His little plan to get Aster all lovely with himself was slowly bearing its fruits. The earth dragon could already see at the end of the festival how they will take care off some newly dragon eggs. Their own eggs. The earth dragon was already painting how things would go and how carrying of figure Aster would be. 
''Nuuu dont be a elder yet. How would be making eggs if you be a grand grand father Aster!'' Chu exclaimed taken aback to the comparison. It sounded silly the way he said it but he was half serious about his worry. 
Nuzzling aster cheek after the other asked him about the nusery passing under the big tree tops, a light early night mist was making the woods appear colder. 
''I am fine, there are quite a few adults who help around in the nursery and the children who became teens all try to play I am big now I can take care of the little ones. They are so cute.''
Chu chuckled letting go of aster so he could spin around and use a earth made hand to raise up and pick some apples that grow on it. '' Two eggs hatched during the festival, one was in the lava bath the baby had quite the lungs to cry out for food. The other a much older egg. It the polar opposite too. So silent and humble just asked for some water and  so many adults swarmed it, you know curios about it magic and power, wondering if it will age in this festival. '' 

Chu talked about the adventures in the nursery offering one of the picked apples to Aster, biting into his own quite eagerly. Walking back he moved some of Aster hair behind his ear. It was the perfect atmosphere, he leaned closer. ''You are a really kind dragon.'' He whispered, only to be interupted by a angry echoing voice, which made him jump in place from the scare.

<span class=""bb-i"">''Who is stealing the holy fruits''</span>

Chu looked around seeing the mist got kind of thicker and whiter. 
<span class=""bb-i"">'' I the sacred living one is demanding you dragons to face your punishment for your sins!''</span>

''We didnt do anything? Who are you?'' The earth dragon tried to stand up wanting to show how great of a mate he could be. Well he felt like there were still quite a few ways he could use to run away, that was mostly the reason he stand up at that moment. What came out of the mist was surprising it was a chicken. A hen was eyeing at them first with one eye turning her head and then with the other.

<span class=""bb-i"">''Knee down if you wish to exist after the sin you have done''</span>

''Is that the chicken speaking?'' Chu was a bit surprised, if it was just a chicken there was no problem than....but it spoke?...
<span class=""bb-i"">''Feel the wraith then!''</span> It felt like the chicken spoke causing many many chicken to assault them feeling pulling onto his hair and scratches allover his arms. Chu tried to sho away the swarm only managing to reach his hand and grab onto Aster. The Mist grow even thicker to the point it was hard to see anything. The pixies and fairies were chuckling as their friends using the mist were swarming the dragons the mist full with smoke of burning herbs that would cause visions. The chicken having one of the fairies on its head wandered to the dragons feet and started to peek on their feet.


<div class=""bb-h3"">Mirazan</div>

He was rambling, way too much of a rambling. She pressed her bridge of her nose. It was always the over energetic dragons that caused the most trouble. Maybe they should make Nexias spend himself by running around the village to calm him down. In all truth, Mirazan was positive it wouldnt work at all. It was the 3 headed elder who chipped suddenly switching his mood.

''Oh they are those kind of '<span class=""bb-i"">guest</span>''' Spoke the red head nodding knowingly. '' I had as a teen, and a young adult quite a few <span class=""bb-i"">guest</span> which names I didnt know either. They stayed for dinner. Quite the tasty fellows they were. '' The blue head attention was suddenly there and Ra spoke. '' Oh are we eating them? I dont mind more vegetables in out diet. '' Eyeing the tree demon as a kid would a tasty strawberry just sitting on the kitchen table.

Mirazan raised her hand. '' To summarize. You brought in the tribe complete strangers to 'show' around. You promise to take responsibility and want to mate with a grand grand pa even if you know there cannot be any eggs made. Did I got all of your rambling points?'' She narrowed her eyes at him, just than the tree man started to speak.

""I apologize for not having introduced myself,I go by Ocotlantli, but you may call be Ocotl. I do not wish to harm anyone, I am merely looking for something.""

''Speak.'' Miraza nodded, elbowing the 3 headed GGF whine of not wanting to know his meals name. She wasnt too sure if he was joking or meant it. Or at least some of the heads meant it.

''Did you happen to know of a Dragon, like you, very gifted in the ways of nature?"", he asked. ""I have been trying to find his home-place. One as long-lived as you may know, yes?""

This made the elders look at each other, trying to remember if there was some dragons. Nature controlling dragons were not completely rare but still werent the most common. ''There was some grand grandparents controlling nature, werent there.'' Sharana asked Mirazan moving her wings as she was thinking. 
''I am sorry I wouldnt know I am quite young looked at humans year. '' Mirazan answered to the GGM look towards her. Sandy chipping in. ''Oh there was one who died naturally his body harvested by humans shortly after. Such a waist to his will. It was  over 1000 years ago thought. Hm... a younger one there was too, after aging they never returned to the festival, who knows of their fate. '' Sandy chipped, rubbing his hands together as after a job good done. 
Mirazan started talking leaving the more experience dragons revise their memories of a dragon who may fit the description and maybe appear to fit the description.

''Well, even if you were only searching  for a dragon this isnt a place we want to allow you to stay. You are on Nexias mercy and will. Be aware of that, this counts for that silent cat what ever you are. Nexias you will take any responsible for their action. .... Draken dont even think about it.'' Mirazan finished, flying up to the air, she really needed a bath in the waterfalls to relax. After that she would spend the rest of the night in the nursery on watch for the eggs and hatching staying there.</div>"

""Thank you, Exalted One."" As unworthy as the human race was to receive such blessings, Ezekiel was glad to be in the god's favor. He listened to him talk about chiding the other, and something in his mind suddenly clicked. The father of the church before him acted a lot like Draken. The man held a hotter temper, as one needs for a child reckless enough to get his own eye forcibly removed; but the similarities outweighed the differences. He wondered if they had always been like that, or received divine influence.

Looking at Nexias, it wouldn't be surprising if he was related to Draken. That was a completely different conversation, however, and he didn't exactly care to find out the younger dragon's exact heritage. He never held the highest opinion of Nexias, and gave the utmost respect to him mostly since he was his Lord's guest. Not that he would ever think of acting out against such a holy being. The dragon did have a way of testing his patience, but then again, so did his own children. 

Was there anywhere he wanted to be in particular? For starters, anywhere out of the immediate area. Ezekiel wasn't exactly nervous, but being surrounded by agitated beings more powerful than he could ever imagine didn't seem like the ideal situation for a human. ""I'd planned to observe for the day. Maybe I can manage to get my bearings, finally. Thank you for taking the time to come here with me."" He explained, giving a short bow. As he spoke, he heard the conversation between the elders and the dragon turn to eating the dragon's guests. He was quietly relieved that his god had given him a way to leave this mess politely. 

As the priest stood up, he noticed there was a dragon staring at them. Well, not <span class=""bb-i"">them</span> so much as Draken himself. That was his child, yes? Even with his horrible eyesight, the two headed-dragon was hard to forget. He wondered if that meant anything of significance, if it was an omen of some sort. If he had noticed the child, Draken must have had some idea she was there. Either way, there was only one way out of the clearing, and she was in it. They would run into her. ""Should we wait for her to approach?""

<div class=""bb-h2"">Milhoro</div>
Every human that was once present in the market was dead. Milhoro had only noticed this after feeling the ground shake from a building collapsing, sending him out of his reverie of impalement. He would need to get back home soon. He assumed his ward had been thrown into chaos once more since he had been gone. It couldn't have taken more than a year for his delicate structure to crumble. The thought saddened him, and infuriated him. He didn't have the time for another 300 year conquest of his people. His people. Even if they didn't realize it at the moment, wherever they were, they were his brothers and sisters and they <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> accept him as their monarch once more, even if it meant some demons had to die to remember that fact. 

The break from the action was welcome, but if nothing else, humans were adaptable. Soon they would be back, in heavier armor than before. Hell, maybe they even had equipment forged from the bones of dragons. Wouldn't that be a challenge. Milhoro finally turned his attention to the feasting demon. He seemed interested only in the present, and so far in his observations only acted in animalistic ways. Was he feral? No, the hunters couldn't be stupid enough to keep a feral demon. They provided nothing, in return for taking everything. Demons, after all, weren't cheap to hold. Milhoro set to preparing traps for any humans wanting a second round, mostly in the form of corroding landmarks to a point of delicate balance. While it was possible, he was hoping other demons wouldn't set it off beforehand. 

Finally, the demon turned his attention to the other, and took a few gentle steps towards him. He didn't need to get too close. ""Dear brother, what are you called? Your massacre was wonderful.""</div>"

He realized that he, too, hadn't introduced himself. He couldn't build up enough courage to speak in front of a crowd, so he mentally prepared himself to speak to Nexias later. He turned his head to see a two headed dragon, looking at him and the other demon. They looked uneasy as they spoke to each other, as if they were two separate beings. This made him more tense, seeing that it was questioning him.

He heard a three-headed dragon start speaking. It started talking about how the last time there were two visitors, they ate them. His anxiousness was skyrocketing as he looked at it. It seemed plausible to him that a dragon that size would eat humans.

The fact that Nexias talked about bringing a world of pain to them if they damage the village topped off his paranoia like a cherry on top of a sundae. He knew that he wouldn't damage it at all intentionally, but the fact that Nexias would even say that would be because he didn't fully trust Lynx. In any other situation, Lynx would flee from the problem, but that decision would most likely cost him his life at the moment.</div>"

The elder dragon chuckled softly at the priest's thankfulness, gingerly brushing the white hair between his fingers. Draken had to admit, he quite enjoyed showing off the albino human. It was quite rare to find one, and Draken had been blessed with a natural born one that served under him and only him. Perhaps it was one of the reasons he was quite fond of the albino, and perhaps spoiled him a little bit compared to most humans that were either naturally his food, playthings or servants. 

Ezekiel though was quite the faithful and unique servant that wasn't easily replaceable. It will be a shame when the human passes on, but it was a event that was unavoidable. After many years of experiencing such a natural life occurrences, it was best to make the best of it.

<font color=""red"">""But of course dear Ezzy. Gotta make surl my favorite priest is enjoying his stay well. And no curious dragon decides to try to take a nip at you.""</font> The Dragon God laughed as he glanced toward the little conversation between the elders, the tree creature, and Nexias. Giving a simple 'innocent' smirk as Mirazan's spoke to him.

At Ezekiel's question about the hatchling, a hum escaped his lips as he thoughtfully calculated his move on the matter. Of course he knew the hatchling was there, and he could smell the fear from her and just how nervous the two headed dragon was. The conversation she was having with herself. Damia seemed to have the issue of having no real thoughts to herself. The two heads represented two sides of thought. A devil and a angel so to speak. Quite difficult to control their words.

<font color=""red"">""Let's walk to the exit. If she ever wants to be any older, she'll have to learn to face her fears without too much assistance.""</font> Draken spoke before walking toward the exit, his posture tall and lax, humming a soft tune. Acting as though he did not see or just did not care that the snake like teen was in there at the exit.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Damia</div>

The two-headed dragon watched as the tree thingy creature spoke to the elders, asking about some sort of nature dragon. Damia was a nature dragon, but not a elder. Soon the two heads flicked their gaze a little as Draken started striding closer with the human servant.

<font color=""lime"">""Oh dear oh dear he's coming.""</font> The left head spoke nervously, slightly lowering.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Dragon up Damia! You are a dragon! Not a cowardly mouse.""</font> The right head snorted with a raised head.

<font color=""lime"">""But not all mice are cowards, and not all dragons are brave.""</font> The left head said softly.

<font color=""springgreen"">""With that poor attitude, I shall never earn father's favor,""</font> The right head snorted irritably before both heads straightened as the dark powerful dragon was about to pass them. 

Both heads gulping slowly, the drag ones slithered the serpentine body in front of the Dragon God. <font color=""green"">""Father, it is pleasant to meet you in person.""</font> both heads spoke in unison, agreeing with these words.

<font color=""lime"">""D-Did I do okay? Did you like it? Would you of passed me if you were a Great Grandfather?""</font> The left head asked nervously.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Hah! I think I did quite well! I've been practicing hard and even harder when you said you were visiting!""</font> the right head spoke, puffing up a little in a attempt to look more impressive before both gazes turned to Ezekiel. 

Curious, the young dragon slithered around the human, noses poking him gently. <font color=""lime"">""Ezekiel...""</font> the left head spoke.

<font color=""springgreen"">""The human.""</font> the right head spoke.

<font color=""green"">""Hello, father spoke of you. You're good human servant.""</font> Both heads spoke.

<font color=""springgreen"">""No eat.""</font> The right spoke as if disappointed while the left huffed and bumped the right head a little.

<font color=""lime"">""Rude to say, sorry.""</font> the left head spoke.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Aster</div>
Looking at Chu as the earth dragon complained silly-like about the red haired compact form dragon getting too old to make eggs, Aster rolled his amethyst eyes but chuckled a little. Lightly pushing his friend's.... Possible mate? Date? Whatever... shoulder playfully. <font color=""plum"">""Is your mind on anything other than eggs? If I did suddenly grow too old, does that mean you wouldn't like me anymore?""</font> the firewater dragon hummed as if offended before laughing a little and ruffling the brown hair.

<font color=""plum"">""Don't worry, I doubt I'll grow old that fast.""</font> Aster reassured, blushing again as the earth dragon nuzzled against his cheek. Still a bit unused to such affection from the Earth Dragon, but also willing to accept it.

Listening to Chu discuss things about the nursery, Aster softly smiled thoughtfully as Chu picked some apples with his earth magic. It made the fellow adult think how it would be to have hatchlings. He hadn't thought too much on it, feeling like he'd never find a mate considering had poor luck in romance. Though now.... It didn't seem like a bad little thought to have at least. He did like hatchlings.

Smiling at the offered fruit, the dual wielding element dragon took it thankfully and was about to bite into it before his body tensed as he felt Chu brush a strand of long hair behind Aster's ear. Blushing deeply as the earth dragon leaned closer and gave a compliment. Expecting a kiss, Aster shifted in place shyly but closed his amethyst eyes in acceptance. The amethyst orbs shot back open at the angry voice however, slightly jumping on surprise.

Looking around with Chu, as the voice spoke about punishment. Aster looked to Chu as he stepped foreword to be brave. It was a little odd for the earth dragon. It was sweet though. Aster himself, wasn't particularly scared, more confused then anything. Soon, he spotted the chicken and raised a eyebrow a little as it apparently demanded them to kneel. Chu also seemed confused, voicing his confusion before a sudden swarm of chickens. Pulling at the hair and pecking at them, Aster hardly moved though, though minorly twitched and swatted at the feathered creatures. 

Chu soon clinging onto the red head, Aster sniffed the air as the mist thickened. Feeling a peck on his foot, Aster's brow twitched in annoyance. This seemed quite familiar. With a growl, the steam dragon lifted his hand, a turret of steaming water appearing and swirling around rapidly like a mini tornado, sucking in the mist before the water sucked it all up before shot out over the trees. Scorching some branches, but not enough to do real harm. 

Quickly reaching down, the red head snatched up a fairy sitting on top of the chickens head and clasped it firmly in his fist.

<font color=""plum"">""Fairies, always like playing tricks don't you? What's with the chickens though?""</font> Aster grumbled, watching the fairy give a sheepish grin.</div>"

""Okay, You're about to get to see a real treat today. I don't think many of non dragons get to see a duel between dragons, much less seeing an elder dragon fight. Consider yourselves lucky then, and wish me luck."" Nexias, surprisingly, kept his tone even and didn't ramble on. He actually seemed rather calm, except for the look in his purple eyes, filled to the brim with so much excitement, you'd swear they'd burst out of his skull. 

ToRaNe chuckled a little at the young dragon's words, To in particular finding them to be quite amusing. ""Your a millenia to young for this to be considered a duel young one, but don't worry, I'll go easy on you."" The dragon gave a look to all those around, most if not all getting the message and backing up to create a rather large space for the dragon's to fight. ""Now then shall we-"" To began, only to find a large bolt of energized shadow heading his way. The head deftly moved out of the way, the bolt missing and hitting a tree, shearing it in half and causing it to fall over, luckily missing anyone that might have been under it. 

Nexias stood with another orb of shadow in his hand, soon gaining a purple aura around it as it became energized, his purple eye's showing the full extent of his unstable excitement. ""Yes, we shall."" Nexias shot another bolt of shadow, but this time, the elder was ready, summoning a bolt of lightning to intercept it, buit it was only a distraction to keep the elders attention busy. It didn't work, though, as the Elder's other heads quickly sturck with their own elements, Ra breathing out a stream of highly pressurized water and Ne breathing out a scathing flurry of sand. 

Nexias was able to avoid both attacks by slipping into his Shadow form, splitting into several strands that raced towards ToRaNe at high speed. The dragon beat his wins down hard, avoiding whatever attack Nexias was planning, with Ne letting out a roar that caused the ground underneath the shadow to collapse into the earth. Nexias reacted quickly, changing into his true form as soon as he felt the earth begin to move and flying upwards at high speeds, ramming right into the elder dragon. ToRaNe growled at the impact, To taking a deep breath before launching a large amount of lightning at the mad dragon, blasting Nexias off of him and recovering the space between the two of them. 

Nexias shook of the effects of the lightning, feeling a bit of numbness in his right leg, which was twitching slightly. Nexias, gave a roar of challenge, drawing a large bolt of shadow from those around to condense into a ball, before he bit down on it and unleashed the energy in a mighty beam. ToRaNe dodged it easily, but was caught off guard when it turned around and slammed into the dragon's back, sending it to the black ground. 'Wait,' ToRaNe thought, ""Black ground?!?' Before he could react, he felt an immense impact as the ground rose to meet him. Nexias had distracted all the heads by focusing them on the beam thus non noticed the collection of shadows that had collected underneath them and rose at an incredible pace to meet them. The dragon growled, getting up and staring at his opponent, To with a angered glare, while Ra and Ne had an analyzing look in their eyes. 

""He's much more skilled in his magic than I believed, but I say we end this soon, before he gets to out of hand."" Ra stated, to which the other heads were quick to agree. Before any more could be said however, the pillar they were standing on, suddenly grew tendrils in attempt to pull the elder in to it, but Ra was quick to cut them down with a jet of water, flying high before turning to face Nexias again, only to see him swooping in at them cloaked in black flames. ToRaNe quickly rolled out of the dragon's charge, than set about dodging the consecutive bolts of shadow fire Nexias began to shoot at them, It seemed Nexias wasn't going to allow them any time to gather their energies so that they could end this quickly. And so it was that the dragon's continued to fight high above the crowd, ToRaNe shooting their respective elements at Nexias, who was smaller and faster than the older dragon and was able to dodge them while sending his own attacks. This looked like it might continue for a while, until one of the combatants made a mistake.</div>"

However, he was curious how gravity was still able effect the demon and, on that note, how he didn't simply slip through the ground and into who knows. He supposed it wasn't worth pursuing, as questions about where Keepa's body went when he transformed and how his clothes manage to keep themselves together. Imagining it was a long and arduous exposition which would fall back on a pinch of magic, he left it where it was, far more interested in the shapeshift.

~~~~~

Like night to day, it was like I was addressed by a completely different person. Actually, if it was like what my nameless associate had mentioned, then this <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> in fact a different person...One deliciously replete with time.

Oh, my. Getting ahead of myself.
First impressions are <span class=""bb-i"">everything</span>

And like day to night, the game was back on; ""Hmhm~ Charmed, to start. I am unsure if you are aware of my name, your other self seems the type not to be bothered with such details~"" I start, softening my demeanor for the breath of fresh air which I considered my newest associate. Checking my watches to make sure they worked, unsure of the care they were given since synchronization apparently wasn't a priority. ""I am...hm~ Well, 'Keepa' will suffice for now"" I begin, introducing myself with a formal curtsey with the length of my robe, a gesture which could be mistaken as a bow, before looking over the motionless guard. ""I only hope I did not hit him <span class=""bb-i"">too</span> hard"" my comment came with a shred of genuine concern; it would be unfortunate if he woke up...and explained how 'a girl half his size' took him down with a single kickboxing reversal? What am I worried about? I'm not some throat-stomper like what's come to be expected of my kind...the ill-tempered oaf down the street did well to enforce that stigma, himself, tenfold.

Come to think of it, it sure had quieted down. The prospect of a returned faction of hunters taking down such a beast was unsettling. I was <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">not</span></span> going back...

""I apologize, as I am not entirely certain what to do, next; I have a new pair of watches and am free...I was not expecting or ready for company, otherwise I would have dressed for the occasion~"" I chirp with a light chuckle, stepping over the guard and claiming his backup dagger with a tendril, pulling it into my shell for safe keeping.

You never know in this day and age~</div>"

He backed a bit, fearing for his life. He bumped into the tree demon and jumped again, not expecting the demon to be behind him. ""Sorry..."" he said quietly, although Lynx seemed uncanny because his mouth didn't move when he spoke. He didn't really want to speak, but apologized to the tree out of habit.

He looked back to the battle, more interested that frightened. His unblinking eyes watched as the dragons soared through the air, flinging their magic about. He aspires to use that kind of magic. He hated having to destroy things if an adversary challenged him. He made a note to himself to go to the bookstore and buy a book about magic when he went back to the city. That is, if it wasn't destroyed by the time he got back.

He started to think deeper about the utter chaos that all of the other demons would bring. Obviously, some other demons, like the tree demon standing next to him, were nice, which made things more complicated for the hunters. He feared that another demon would challenge him, especially because he isn't much of a close-combat fighter, and most other demons are. That allows him to flee easier, however. He started to confuse himself on what demon he'd rather face when the sounds of magic brought his attention back to the real world.</div>"

The beast eating his new meal away. It was more than clear there were more of those salvage beast as they came in and out of the market by their will. Observing didnt do well. Taking off the binoculars the mayor looked at the hunter guilds leader. 
''They are all death.'' The older man said with a blaming voice.  
''I am so sorry for the lost.'' Said the guild master looking  bored at the scene far away. ''You should send someone to put out that fire.''

The man was beaming with anger in his face, but his voice whined. ''Fine...fine! Protect the people please! I am accepting your conditions.''
'' Please sing on this document to make it officially.'' The guild master pulled out his gantlet a piece of paper and a pen. Offering the side off his finest sword for the major to sing.  ''See could have done it a lot earlier so many lives wouldnt be lost.'' The hunters grinned under his mask, his hand reached behind and took out a metal container. Whispering on one end he opened the door letting out a small pixie glow in the dark of the night. Watching as it fly high and noticeable away. A light signal. 

<div class=""bb-h3"">Moris</div>

He limped into a building, to his luck he wasnt aware that just moments later two demons passed that same alleyway beside the building. A cat surprised by the visitor run away from Moris and into the same alleyway. The bartender himself entered the lift and pressed the highest floor. 
The music played as the lift rose up. The man took another sip from his flask. This night wasnt a kind one. The smell of after demon fight was tickling his nose. The corruption, the burn and death all off it was there. Out the lift he climbed with heavy steps up the stairway to the rooftop. On top of the skyscraper Moris could see the clouds of destruction and fire rise. 

Where were the guild? He had to focus his eyes before he noticed the shapes of the massacre in the market place.
What was happening? He wished he was more ignorant and was sleeping in his flat unaware blissfully of the horrors that surely were in plain view in the marketplace.

Just than his training made him notice it. A small blue light was dangling in the air towards the marketplace. ''Blue...scare it away?...'' It was a way to send messages when all the usually methods failed or were not safe to use. Sending a pixie or fairy that would light in specific color to send the messenger. The captured nuisances were brain washed and will broken to the moment where they would always return to their cage. They must have had some saved up in other storage's , so not all of them burned up.

''Why not red?'' As he wondered, why it wasnt a kill it order, from a rooftop several streets away from Moris the first dragon bone arrow shoot down to the marketplace. They had a more clear view of the scene than him and were closer to it than Moris. Several seconds later from the opposite side was shoot one arrow too. 
He couldnt see if it hit a target or not. He didnt need to look around to see how many hunters groups were all around placed on the rooftops. There must have been at least 10 groups all over the buildings with a view on the market place attempting to shot on command or plan to just scare the demon or demons in the market place away. The tactic was old.

''Those little rats.'' He cursed watching on, aware the hunters must have sacrificed the people down there so they could set up and still have time to play what ever game they were out to play, before actually taking action. '' dragon fuckers.'' He whispered the worst of the insults in the night out. 

<div class=""bb-h3"">Mirazan</div>

She stayed a bit longer watching the old dragon fight Nixas was amusing. She could tell that he was holding back quite a bit. each head was fighting for themselves not together. Each element magic was for it self not combined. She was thankfully the dragon didnt manipulat weather to get a field advantage. The tribe really didnt need a rain down pour and lighting storm.

It was a play time for the GGP, and he was having fun a few times it looked like he underestimate too much the shadow dragon. Getting a few hits. 
Her eyes wandered down to the demons, and to Draken who was talking with the fresh teen. His hatching wasnt it? She didnt care, it was far from important thing. Flying lower as the two fighting dragon moved up she felt a bit silly. Yeah she called that special feeling silly. Mirazan later blamed Sandy for it. 

She landed a few feet away changing mid air in her compact form. A 6 year old blond girl was standing beside the two demons. She looked up again, seeing ToRaNe missing Nexias with his electrical breath. It was a portion of a second later she noticed it was a set up. A mine field was now all around the madness controlling dragon. A mine field made out of electricity balls floating idly in the air.

He would be quite busy. '' He isnt taking good care of his <span class=""bb-i"">guest</span>.'' She said a light tentacle moving and wrapping around the cat torso. ''He is so busy with fighting he cannot even look away if he doesnt want to get hit.'' receiving the cat in her hands by her tentacle made out of light she looked at Oct. '' Follow me. '' Mirazan said leading them swittly out the view of the arena where the figth was happening. <span class=""bb-i"">Lets test the youngling how long will it take him to notice the missing</span>

''What do you two eat? Fruits? fish? Light soil and water?'' She questioned the demons. Mirazan was respecting Nexias will of not harming them. She could tell she was watched by at least 2 of the other elders. It was a good feeling for her, knowing she would have done the same on their place.
She lead them to the waterfalls most dragons werent here at night. The one who were in the lake were mostly water dragons minding their own business. Plenty of food was left on its lake shore, mostly by other dragons bringing food for the festival. 

<div class=""bb-h3"">Chu</div>

With a growl aster made the mist go away, and reveling quite a bunch of fairies. The earth dragon was quite glad his steam dragon did it. A real chicken peeked on his bare feet making him jump just in place. Looking over to the dragon in question he saw Aster holding one of the lovely small beings by its wings. He frowned, tapping his foot on the earth and put the chicken in a earth cage.

The amount of other pixies and fairies flattering around them was quite impressive. ""Fairies, always like playing tricks don't you? What's with the chickens though?"" 
''You are the one at fault. '' The little gal responded in its high pitched voice. 
''How so?'' Chu asked the one held by aster.
''You have a really ugly face.'' She pointed at chu making the earth dragon stare for a long moment. That was a low low hit. 
''You are useless and only good for a laugh''
''Yes yes, the one who lived wanted revenge.''
''Chicken rage!''
The pixies started to talk all at the same time. flattering around the two dragons. '' Let now her go, to not be the same as them''
''You arent going to eat her!'' One of the fairies called landing on Aster hand and biting it, in a attempt to free his friend. Chu waved the hand trying to sho them away. '' We will not do anything to you all. We just wanted to take a walk. '' The bunny dragon said still he wasnt fully recovered from the low hit.

''Useless!'' They called at him and started to sing in a choir. ''Useless and Ugly! Ugly and Stupid!''
 Chu brow twitched and he called out.  
''I am not Ugly! Or useless for that matter I even helped my friends break out the hunter prison get that! I am not useless!'' There was silence. Every single fairy was now staring at chu. Making Chu feel creep out by it. It looked as something was about to happen and he caused it. He didnt liked bad things to happen, even more he disliked surprising bad things to happen. '' You break someone out there?'' The fairy who rode on the chicken spoke up first.

'' Um...yeah?...I wanst alone...'' Chu turned into his bunny form and jumped on top of Aster head. Hidding his face in the other dragon compact form hair. He smelled so nice. It was calming.</div>"

""Well for each dragon the views could be different. Unfortunately I'm afraid I may not be the best advocate to tell my views for I can not see,"" Lucatiel joked "",So my view of the world is a rather blurry dark place."" She went about rearranging several figures with relative ease even with her disability.

""I guess you could say rather then view I sense the world and I view it as a place that needs to be nurtured rather then have we dragons quarreling with those humans who hate us or else the only thing left with be gray crags and burnt trees. We should strive for some means of peace though after all these centuries it would seem that is impossible. But what do you think then Momo, after all you have as much of a view as any human or dragon does what do you view of the world?""</div>"

Ezekiel nodded at his lord's words, following along. He was glad to leave the area. If there was one thing he didn't need, it was being in the middle of that mess. As the two left, he heard things only getting worse, flinching as a sudden sound of a lightning bolt came down. 

It was good to see Damia take initiative to approach her father. It was a step in the right direction, at least. The poor dragon couldn't have a thought to herself, could she?  It must have been frustrating, dealing with polar opposites. As the teen went on talking to Draken, it seemed like it could have devolved into a conversation between the two heads if her attention wasn't brought to himself. He glanced up at the elder, trying to guess his reaction to Damia. He generally went much easier on children than adults, but he was also a harsh critic compared to many other dragons.  

Despite himself, Ezekiel found himself mildly amused at the young dragon. ""Thank you."" It was always a surprise to hear dragons using his full name. It was so natural for many dragons to simply pick up the name Draken used for him, but hearing his actual name from Damia was welcome. ""It's quite alright."" He grinned, looking at the right head. Compared to other dragons he had encountered in his time, it was nice to hear she wouldn't eat him. Not that it was such a big issue anyway, between the assurances of the elders to his lord's own protection. But courteous dragons were always better to talk to.

Trying to start a conversation, he realized it was more complicated than he had initially thought. Which head should he address? Should they be treated as separate entities, or still one whole? If nothing else, the left head seemed more polite. Even if she lacked the confidence of her other head, it made her less likely to aggrandize herself. ""Damia, yes? It's lovely to meet you.""</div>"

""He isn't taking good care of his guest,"" Mirazan muttered, picking up the cat with a tentacle made out of light. He glanced over to her small form, blinking slowly. 

""What do you two eat? Fruits? fish? Light soil and water?"" she asked, leading them to a secluded waterfall with a small lake. Fires and flares from dragons fighting or having fun lit up the night sky near them, creating a sort of twilight closer to the center of the village. Fireflies danced around the deep blue water in the dusky light, blinking sluggishly. The din of cicadas and the occasional animal cries filled the air around the village. A cool breeze was blowing through the trees, the leaves rustling peacefully.

""I am originally a forest spirit, and we draw upon the forces of nature to power us,"" Ocotl explained, turning back to Mirazan, who was looking at him suspiciously, holding the cat in her arms. The same ethereal light radiated off of her still. ""However, being constrained to this form, I have been given human thought, but human limitations."" 

""There are some things I can do,"" he said, raising his hand and bringing up a swath of knotty branches from the ground near them. He clenched his fist and the branches wilted and crumbled, descending back into the ground. 

""But a forest spirit embodies nature itself. My power is but a fraction of what it was, but even if I were to regain it, I would harbor no ill will towards human nor dragon.""

""Do you resent your... master's acts towards you?"" Mirazan asked, blue eyes twinkling. ""He did capture you after all.""

""No, not at all. He was incredibly kind to me while he was alive, but I wish to know more about him,"" Ocotl explained, sighing. ""He seldom told us anything.""

Mirazan hummed slightly, looking at Ocotl out of the corner of her eye. ""Like we said before, we do not remember any such dragon around these parts. You may have to take your search elsewhere, but we will not let you leave if you pose a threat to dragon-kind.""

He turned towards her, joints creaking. ""What can I do to convince you of my loyalty? I trust you because of your kindness so far, but it seems we do not share that mentality.""

Ocotl looked at the cat in the dragon's arms. ""It would do both of us good if you explained yourself soon."" He looked around the dusky waterfall. 

""Nobody is around either, now is as good of a time as any.""</div>"

It didn't hurt much, but it did cause a big explosion, clouding the dragon's vision long enough for Nexias to blitz him in his compact form, going for a physical bombardment of blows. Normally, it would do nothing, but Nexias had coated his arms in a large amount of Energized shadow, and each hit caused an explosion shadows to burst forth, doing actual damage to the ToRaNe. It seems Nexias was giving it his all and taking advantage of a dragon's reliance on distance. While dragon's were no slouches in CQC, they weren't that well versed in it for the most part. 

Nexias was an exception, as he sent a great part of his early 200 years to learn a variety of fighting styles, thus making him very dangerous in his compact form, and when ever ToRaNe tried to claw or bite at him, he'd lither along their scaly hide as a shadow before reforming to unleash another rain of blows. Soon, To had enough, and called down a barrage of lightning strikes on to himself, causing Nexias to  get shocked off of the dragon, only to be smacked by a tail straight into the forest.

""Damn,"" To said working his jaw a bit to numb the ache, ""I didn't expect for him to be this good. I don't think he's quite GrandFather level yet, but-"" Before he could finish, a cacophony of maddened laughter echoed from the forest, a purple aura surrounding it. The trees became twisted and gnarled, the leaves became decayed, and the bark split open to show fanged laughing, that maddened laugh, and crazed red eyes, all focused on the elder. ""well then, that can't be good.""</div>"

The elder watched as his youngest hatchling managed to confront him on her own. A good start. His expression hardly changed, but he did hold his usual mischievous smile and hummed a little. <font color=""red"">""Mhmm you did alright. I suppose I can't complain. Though I do look foreword on how you manage to grow in your magic.""</font> he mused before watching the two headed teen curiously examine the albino human. Lightly prodding with noses and talking to him.

Ezekiel seemed happy to talk with the young dragon, but also seemed a little confused. Talking to a multiple headed dragon could be difficult after all, considering each case could be very well different. Each head could basically be a sibling, or just a part of a dragon's personality. Leaning closer to the priest's eat, he muttered a little.

<font color=""red"">""Both heads are one, but are not the same. A constant devil and angel on her shoulders that can be heard by everyone, instead of just in the mind.""</font> Draken explained with a soft amused grin.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Damia</div>

Damia's heads smiled at the greeting, both nodding in response as she lightly flapped her wings before folding them against the emerald scales of the serpentine body as she continued to slightly circle the human man out of curiousity. She did not meet too many humans, her first being someone that ended up scaring her and others after the right head spoke about eating the human. She couldn't stop thoughts that came to mind, they just left a mouth without much warning, even if they were quite rude comments.

<font color=""lightseagreen"">""It is nice to meet you too. And thank you Father, I shall try harder at the next festival as well.""</font> both of the heads said to the human and Grandfather before the right sniffed Ezekiel curiously.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Are many humans as white as you?""</font> The right head asked.

<font color=""lime"">""Pretty and unique, but rude to ask.""</font> The left head spoke, eyes looking to the right head before back at Ezekiel.

<font color=""springgreen"">""Weird though.""</font> The right head snorted, earning a light bump by the left head.

<font color=""lime"">""Rude. Weird is good, Ezekiel is nice.""</font> The left head snorted.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Aster</div>

Aster looked at all the fairies around them. A little odd so many would play a prank on a couple of dragons all at once. Still as they started chattering and annoying Chu, he rolled his amethyst eyes before looking at the fairy biting at his hand, attempting to free their comrade from his hold. It stung a little, but nothing he couldn't handle. The steam dragon took hold of the second fairy with a free hand, gripping both of the fairies now.

<font color=""plum"">""You fairies are lucky we aren't fairy eating dragons. Otherwise this would be a buffet.""</font> Aster mused before releasing them, watching their surprise expressions as Chu denied their accusations by saying he had come to save the dragons from the hunters.

If what Aster heard was correct, Jeobae was the one who broke everyone out, then Aster blew a bunch of holes everywhere, then Chu and the others came around. Aster almost killing the earth dragon if Draken hadn't stepped in with some sort of mind control magic. Still, he didn't say anything considering Chu did come for him. That made him happy all the same. Still, the dual element dragon felt guilty at the news that he had almost killed his friend.

As Chu transformed and jumped ontop of his head, curling up like a rabbit nestling into its nest for winter. Aster smiled, reaching up and gently petting the top of Chu's head before looking at the fairies.

<font color=""plum"">""That's right, this brave dragon managed to save quite a few dragons. I'm sure that also included some other creatures like fairies.""</font> Aster chuckled softly.</div>"

An arrow managed to strike him in the chest, piercing through his thick armor slightly, enough to irk him. He pulled it out, throwing it to the ground and his black blood poured forth from the wound falling to the ground with a splatter. The ground itself seemed to burn black as soon as the blood touched. Abraxas then realized that he had over stayed his welcome and it was time to flee but first, one more surprise. He flexed, his body becoming wreathed in flames and he began to run away from the city, his body causing fires as he went.

A small  bird made out of bones came and land on Ne's snort. Making all 3 heads for a moment not care about the demon shooting up to them. In a brief moment the message was transferred to him and he turned to his compact form effectually avoiding the line of fire  from Nexias. ''I am sorry boy the fights ends here. I have things to attend to this very moment. '' A voice close sounding to To spoke as the man landed elegantly on his feet. '' Play with some other dragon or do what you planed before we started to have a fun training session.'' Ne voice came out of the mans lips before the compact elder dragon was surrounded by earth and fall into it. The earth floor returned back to normal. As the elder dragon traveled to the edge of the tribe. Passing under the crystal shop and out the barrier standing between trees.

The man sighed, there was something coming the path of fire was more than visible the smoke raising the wood life screaming and running heedlessly away. If this kept up there will be no animals around the dragon tribe to hunt. It came surrounded with flames. It started to rain all over the place, including the tribe the city and woods close by. The rain clouds appearing out of the blue covered the night stars in a flash and started pouring taking care of the fire. There was no earth it could step as the earth moved like waves, pulling away from under the demons feet and slamming over him in the hard stone of the deep in the earth containing it.

''I would prefer if you do not keep on destroying everything around you. There were quite a few bird families whose eggs got destroyed thanks to you.'' To voice said out the mans lips as he came towards the stone, and earth ball holding for the moment the demon. Placing a hand on it he started repairing any damage the moment it was done to the cage. 


<div class=""bb-h3"">Moris</div>

He didnt saw the beast, but he saw the flames and destruction it left on his trail of escaping. The low life of a demon must have run away like a dog hit with cold water....well if dogs were turning to burning trucks of destruction after they started running away. He took one more sip from his flask it was getting low. It didnt please him. Not seeing any reason to stay he started to slowly walk towards the door. 

Was it a chill? Or the feeling of something dark spreading? Maybe it was just his high trained senses. He moved to the edge of the roof top and looked down.  A woman was followed by a shadow? Observing, no she wasnt followed she talk to it? Shadows were typical element of demons, and just as he observed he saw the shadow changing into a young man. And the trigger happy hunter deep inside Moris soul awoke.

Laying on his stomach on the rooftop he had to act fast before what ever he was watching went away. He had a hunch that the lady was either mind controlled by the shadow now man or was of his kind. He took a small automatic crossbow. It only had 5 shots with drat like dragon teeth projectile. A self protection measure he never left the house with out.

Damn he even slept with it, paranoia was a curse of a pensioned hunted.  Would it hit the shadow man? Was he from flesh now or was it a illusion of the shadow being. He aimed at the woman. It was intended for her leg, after the first shot he will judge the reactions and act upon them. His blood was pumping there was a trill in him.  
If the shadow tries to assault her the next shot will be at it. If they both tried to locate the shot or run he would trust his instincts.

Aiming carefully closing one eye for a better shot years of practice he shot one dragon teeth drat watching it fly a perfect trajectory towards the girls leg. Weirdly enough the first of drops of rain started falling. He could have sworn there was no clouds in the sky just moments ago.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Siabel</div>

''Sensing the world.... '' Siabel mussed listening to the other dragon explain her views. Dragons and humans, what was her view? She was wondering turning her head up at Momos voice.
''I am done with the tea, careful its still hot.'' The human warned giving her lady the cup which she gladly took. She didnt paid much attention as Momo explained her outlook of the world. She had a pretty good idea what it would be if she was honest and what it would be if she was polite. 

''You know... have you had anyone tell your fortune? Momo do you have by a chance a deck of cards?''
''I can easily make one using my note book. Give me a few moments my lady.''
Siabel smiled watching as the girl took out pages halved them to make simple drawings and words on each. They were sketches still they looked impressive. Turning her attention back to Lucatiel. 
''Its a human thing mostly, on carnivals or similar there are always people who would do that. I learned it for fun to do.'' She took another sip of her tea. 
''You see, I would like to place cards for you. Who knows what they may tell us. ''
The cards got fast done by Momo and Siabel started to shuffle them offering Lucatiel to cut them and pull them out  and place them on the table for her to fortune read out of them.



<div class=""bb-h3"">Chu</div>

The fairies looked each other and than looked back at the dragons. '' No, none returned.'' One spoke a bit over a whisper. Another picking up.
''Could you go and check for our friends?''
''Yes, yes!'' A pixie nodded. '' Bring them back! If you saved big dragons than you can save our small friends!'' There was a crashing in the far, making the earth dragon snuggle more into the hair of his friend. The fairies starting to press on the dragons to go to the city.
The excitement started to change noticed Chu, the fog was no more thanks to aster, but there was something purple and black coming around. Thy sounded as if they were really hoping for Chu to go to the city and save them. But it started to sound more sinister. They were laughing and demanding their shine turned to purple. 

''Aster.... they dont look well....'' Chu whispered in moments later hearing accusation that they were in the woods only for one reason to capture them and all the fairies and pixies even the chicken started to fly at them scratching and bitting a lot harder than before. The chicken that was minding its own after the first trick flapped his wings actually flying too aiming to peek aster eyes out. Chu from the top of the water and fire dragons head hit the chicken head with his pawn. '' Okay they are now scary...maybe we should go check for their friends? Maybe it will... ouch dont burn the tail! calm them down?'' Chu said his fluffy red tail was set on fire by one of the fairies.

They looked quite scary to him. Scary enough he wanted to not have them follow into the tribe and cause trouble to him or anyone he cherished.

Oh, how magnificent it was to watch a real life dragon battle! He looked at every detail of the fight, hoping he would remember one of the scenes of it perfectly so he could later sketch it in his notebook. He looked at his notebook for a second, a pencil sitting firmly in the coils of leather which held the whole thing together.

His notebook was his pride and joy. He kept it with him at all times, just in case something peculiar happens, or if he passes by a creature other than himself to sketch, mainly humans. He realized that he was running out of paper to draw in and made a mental note to himself to buy a second notebook.

He was caught off guard when a tentacle had grabbed him. Just before it was out of reach, Lynx grabbed the notebook with his front paws. He tried struggling out of it's grasp, thinking it was hostile until he realized he was now being held by a young girl, most likely a dragon in their own little human form thing. He calmed down a bit, for he knew that the dragons weren't hostile to guests. <span class=""bb-i"">Or are they?</span> the voice in the back of his head told him. This made him uneasy again, which it always did. It seemed as if the voice wanted him to be constantly paranoid.

The girl brought them to a beautiful waterfall. How the moonlight glistened on the stream was mesmerizing. Lynx was a sucker for landscaped, and tried to make a mental picture of the waterfall so he could sketch that as well. Oh, how inconvenient it was to not be in his human form, but he'll have to deal with it or now.

He turned his head as he heard the tree-demon, now known to him as Ocotl, made a somewhat irritated remark to him. The mere thought of introducing himself made Lynx feel sick. ""H-hello, my name is Lynx..."" he said quietly, with a prominent shake in his voice. Just like before, his mouth didn't move as he talked, keeping an eerie smile on his face. ""I'm nothing too special, j-just a demon. My main magic I use is transformation and destruction..."" The fact that Lynx had just revealed that he was a demon made him feel dizzy. ""B-but I would never intentionally hurt any of you or the village,"" he said quickly, hoping to remove any suspicion in the dragon who had taken him. ""I'm disguised at the moment because this is the form I'm mostly in, and I feel more comfortable in it. I will go into my human form, i-if you'd like."" He was anxious for one of them to respond, and looked between the two of them.</div>"

Ezekiel needed to take a moment to think about his lord's words as the young dragon rambled on about him. One of Draken's favorite things had to be giving cryptic advice. But thirty years of taking such advice had taught him how to break it apart and understand it, and more often than not it was well worth the time to do so. He wouldn't waste his time saying worthless things. At least something said was straightforward, and confirmed what Ezekiel had already thought. Showing he understood, he gave a nod. 

The priest found it hard to hide his amusement at the question. He had been asked similar questions before, from children curious at why his hair was so white, his skin so pale and why he never went outside too much. He glanced down at his hand, almost forgetting how pale he was. Looking at the right head, he shook his head. ""No, no. Medically speaking, it's a disorder. Most humans are more...colorful than me."" The fact that he wore almost all black only reaffirmed the comment. ""But thank you."" He added on, addressing the left head. 

He was well beyond the time of taking offense at such comments. There was a time when he was insecure about it, that it made him stand out and that was the last thing he wanted. He could even count a fight over a peer heckling it for him. But in due time he had learned to accept it, even embrace it; it made him a treasure of his Lord, after all.

<div class=""bb-h2"">Milhoro</div>

Even with his capabilities of processing situations, the next moment became a blur for the demon. Suddenly the demon he addressed was taking off, and there was a sharp pain in his back. 
Groups from the roofs were firing arrows, but they couldn't be normal, could they? He pulled the arrow from the wound, only getting a glance before more pressing matters took his attention. Through the shot corroded to nothing in his hands, Milhoro still wasn't pleased with this situation. If they had the resources to make so many arrows out of such rare materials, they certainly had more manpower than this siege let on.

Suddenly, it clicked. They were the same people who captured him over a decade ago, holding him in a miserable cage. Who else would be able to organize against them so efficiently? The demon felt a surge of loathing, powerful enough to contend with his ego. The arrows that he hadn't managed to dodge only made it harder to push animalistic intentions down. He knew that he would get his revenge one day, and things would turn out in his favor; when did they not? 

But there was an opportunity to do <span class=""bb-i"">something</span> here, and against his better judgement he couldn't resist the temptation. The corruption he had already spread was already working its way around the concrete. The firing made it next to impossible to see what arrows were coming from what buildings, but he took his chances to press against a building and focus on only that. It exhausted him, but his ability threatened to consume the infrastructure.</div>"

She was still debating on the words Octl spoke. They sounded truthful either way something sounding  like true didnt made it true. She was still careful looking at the cat. It was a weird feeling. The large smile on its face appeared more like a mask than anything else.
The feeling she had when looking at it was a soft trail of knowledge that it was neither dragon nor cat. She made a note to remember that feeling for future, the young grand grand mother had a feeling this two will be not the last demons she will have to deal with.
She listened carefully to the words waiting for Lynxs to finish what it had intended to say. ''Lynxs. I dont want any destruction or harm. None intentional and none unintentional alike. And you are free to stay as a cat, it is earier to hold you like that. ''

She turned her gaze back to Octl. '' To earn my trust time has to pass. I dont give it to nice words or pretty eyes.'' It looked like she was distracted by something, that something was a mouse.Not any mouse but a dead mouse. It run up to Mirazan and climbed up her dress to the girls ear. Then falling over dead on the earth.

Mirazan rubbed the bridge of her nose. ''Well hm......You want my trust? Bear in mind you arent my guest but Nexias, you are on his will not my, so you are free not to do my request. But... how about to show me your are trustworthy and peaceful by calm down one of your own kind?''

The night will be another long one. Looking up to the sky she watched in silence as the clouds appeared and it started raining. There was no lighting yet, only heavy rain, drenching her hair and cloths. ''A demon, apparently was on his way here.... And if the rain means anything ToRaNe  went to stop him. Well thats me assuming. But wouldnt be nice if you two tell that demon to behave so when Nexias let you both go, you all 3 can go on your own paths?'' She smiled at both of them, not minding in the slightest that she was drenched by the rain.</div>"

My mass evaporating in a small cloud as my shell healed around the end of...huh...<br/><br/>So, I pull this trinket out of my leg, the tip shimmering with a baneful resonance. A drop of water falls upon my face as I turn to look where the shot came from. My curls reach <span class=""bb-i"">him</span> in moments, his pulse racing as I felt the adrenaline race in his vigorous veins. What was his plan? He was alone, that I knew of, and his idea was to shoot a demon in the leg with...this? It may have been a good idea on the greater threat, although such a trinket...well, I may keep it. I found it elegant in its design, despite how it had just been used against me.<br/><br/>I pull the bolt from my shin and held it up as I carry my shell to his perch.

I hiss, twirling the short stem of the bolt between my fingers before 'sheathing' it in my sash.

The following hiders hold information about the world, dragons and similar.
 
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Intro"" type=""button"">Intro [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-center"">In the world Angenus, inhabited with many different species from pixies up to Cyclops one species wields the most powerfully magic of them all and that are the dragons. No other specie has the chance to kill a dragon who awaits the fight. But to be fair demons come a close second. 
There is always a exception, one weak species able to handle much stronger creatures than them self, its name 'humans'.

Humans with their steam machines and weak magic learnt to kill the dragons. Create machines that captures various magical beings, and even made experiments to harness the magical energy from them. Using this energy in their weapons and armor to further enhance themselves.

From the dragon bones structures are built that never break down, from the dragon teeth tools are made that never become dull, from the skin protection and shield are build that never rip in front of the nature,from the blood and organs magic items are made of great power and as last from the dragons meet and fat medicine that heal and improves the strength of the one eating it. 

Most dragons dispute humans for this ability of adapting and learning. Feeling that even if the hunting doesnt bring death that often to dragons it still worries them. Making the prideful creatures return to the safety of the many tribes around the world. Because the tribe is shielded with a powerfully shield, that hiddes it to the humans eyes and uninvited guest. It was believed that only together with a dragon you can enter and leave the shield, but some magical beings are able t trick the shield into letting them in. 

Even so not all humans are liking the idea of killing this powerfully beings.Fearing revenge of the creatures that destroyed countries out of a impulse. Some are saying they are gods and should be worshiped, finding in the far lands temples where the dragons use humans as their slaves, till churches where dragons protects the humans. There are humans who speaks that the dragons are the root of all evil with their powers to destroy so much with their magic and should be killed, wiped from the face of earth. There are humans who are driven by curiosity towards those ancient beast and want to learn and understand them... Some wish for alliances with dragons as they believe it would give them unbelievable power.

But the dragons arent that different either they are curious towards the human world, or fearing it as root of all evil that wish their death or control over them and some say that peace is possible. The demons are on the other side beast unique and rare. Most dragons and humans barely heard of demons even less saw a demon with their own eyes. The lack of their numbers compared to dragons is what makes them often forgotten and overseen. 

The demons culture is a mystery but there are gossips that they are just as stubborn and lone wolfs as dragons. Like any gossip it may or may not be true.</div></div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""CAbout Dragons"" type=""button"">CAbout Dragons [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h3"">Dragons Appearance</div>
<font color=""red"">Normal form</font> is what you usually think when one say dragon.
Any dragon you can come up with is allowed, well it has to resemble a dragon in one way or another.

//examples:
 Want a dragon 10m big, its ok.
Want a dragon as small as a bunny with scales and cute dragon wings, its ok.
Want a furry in water living asian shaped dragon its ok too.
etc...
//

<font color=""red"">Compact form</font>
Is what it sound like a compact form of a dragon their second face. In lot of cases if not all the compact form is human alike, with a mistake or two that resemble their dragon form. Those mistakes are often covered with human wear.
//examples:
A dragon having a girl like appearance but has a smaller version of the horns peeking under the hair.
Or the dragons compact form has its chest covered in scales.
Or maybe the feet arent those of a human but are shaped like the dragon feet.
etc...//

This form appears after a freshly born baby dragon reaches 100 days. They transform in the compact form. Every dragon older then 100 days is able to do it.
There are great individuality in the behavior of the compact form. Some compact form ages with the <span class=""bb-i"">dragon age</span>, some age reversely and some have one compact form, one appearance for their whole life. While other age only a few years, their first form being for example 25 year old man, that over the life of the dragon age up to 35 and stops.


<div class=""bb-h3"">Dragons Age</div>

 Magic is a extremely important life aspect of dragons so much that they dont give a penny about the human years. They have their own way of counting age that describe how powerful of magic they have. Each dragon can sense this level naturally.
Every 10 humans years there is a ceremony <font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">The festival</span></font> in these days the dragons can show off their magic in front of others and officially be recognized that they got older. Of course the aging can be very individually too.
The dragons can tell by the look at one another which age they are. 

//examples
There can be 750 human year old baby
And 20 human year old adult. 
Some dragons improve so fast in their magic ability that they jump over a age or two. 
etc...//

<span class=""bb-b"">The Ages</span>
<ul style=""white-space: normal;""><li><font color=""red"">Baby</font>
Only able to change into their compact form, doesnt show off any other magic abilities.</li><li><font color=""red"">Child</font> 
Small magic burst, often uncontrolled magic, weak magic.</li><li><font color=""red"">Teen</font>
Stronger magic then children can get at times out of control, but able to do a lot more tricks and things. Time when dragons explore what can they do with their magic.</li><li><font color=""red"">Adults</font>
Stronger magic then teen able to do lots with their magic, nearly never lose control over it. They are able to give birth to <font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">dragon eggs</span></font></li><li><font color=""red"">Grandma/Grandpa</font>
High class magic, tend to teach the young ones who ask them. Help in protection of dragons and tribes. Can give birth to <font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">dragon eggs</span></font></li><li><font color=""red"">GrandGrandma/GrandGrandpa</font>
Miracle magics, magic that can rip up continents, cause a whole land to sunk in darkness or dry out a ocean. The most powerfully dragons, often considered to be the leader figures, can teach the young who ask them. Most time spend in the tribe as their magic powers feed the old spell that protect and hides the tribe from harms way. Cannot give birth to <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""red"">dragon eggs</font></span> because of their magic strength, the magic overloads the egg destroying the egg before its done.</li></ul>
<div class=""bb-h3"">Dragon Eggs</div>

Dragons do not have genders. Any dragon can make a egg with any other. The gender they take on when turning into the compact form, may reflect they personality, may not mean anything.  The dragons do not stay pregnant. When they mate the magic of two dragons and their showing love is what creates the egg out of nothing. 
The dragons can mate in both of their forms. 

There is great variation in both sizes and coloration of the eggs, which depends on the magic influence of the parents. The baby doesnt have to have any magic similarities to its parents.

There is no strict time of the eggs incubation, or the needs of the egg. Each egg takes its own time to hatch and some need to be in cold, while other prefer heat, some like the water and some do not need any attention. Dragons by touch the shell of the egg can sense what does the egg needs and want. 

But there is a believing in the dragons folk, which says:<font color=""red"">The longer the hatching takes the stronger the born dragon.</font>
Some eggs hatch withing days some takes 1000 years, some appear never to hatch.
When it comes to parenting some dragons are the most dotting mothers while others prefer to leave the egg in the tribes nursery for caretaker. Neither is being judged on.
So a baby dragon may have never meet their parents, while others grow up with one or both of them.

The nursery in each tribe drifters, but most are having some underneath the earth complex in which some of the eggs needs can be meet. Obliviously if the egg needs the fresh air, sun, moon or star light it will be taken care off over the earth level. The nursery is always attracting some dragons, who take care of all the eggs. Or take care of it for some time before leaving it.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Morals</div>

Lets call it Morals.
<font color=""red"">1. Each dragon life is the most precious and has to be protected.
2.Each dragons chose and free will is to be respected as long as it doesnt endanger a dragons life
3.Each dragon can chose how to life his life.
4.Each dragon is unique and is loved for it.</font>

Some guidelines, often given out by the GGM/GGP
-Babies shouldnt ever leave the tribe, on their own.
-Children can only leave in the company of a teen or older.
-Teen and older are free to come in and out of the tribe as they wish.
-Humans are forbidden to be taken to the tribe (a rule that was mostly violated in the recent times)

//Examples

You see because the dragons free will is important, and there are dragons who are human obsessed or human loving, you can see in the tribe a human house while beside it a dragon sleep under his tree. Or random human object that some dragon took in the tribe. Well each object is controlled over by the oldest to make sure not a single one is a tracker or something to dis-spell the tribe protection.
Well that wouldnt stop the more traditional dragons to frown over this human things, but they respect and just nag about those.//


<div class=""bb-h3"">The Tribe</div>
<div class=""bb-center"">There was only one tribe at the begging of the time. The big tribe surrounded by high mountains. Times werent idle and peacefully, in opposite there was a war between dragons for the wish to rule and not be ruled. It was a just hatched dragon with great power that challenge every dragon there was and in less then 100 days from its birth he won against everyone, his magic a miracle. He changed his body to a young person, surprising the beast around, declaring that he is the oldest dragon. 
He taught every dragon the respect for each other and gave them free will to live how they wished for. He shared his secrets of transformation giving ever dragon a second form, but even his magic couldnt make them perfect to his own second form. Some bits of the beast remained.
Given the free will to do what each wanted many explored the world but every ten years their would hear the voice, a soft whisper, a tug on their heart, calling them back, to their first home to celebrate life and its flow.</div>

That tribe is the tribe where <span class=""bb-i"">the Festival</span> is being hold. 

Each tribe has at least one grandgrandma/grandgrandpa that feed the shield their magic just by living there. This shield is like a bubble imagine the magic that hide Hogwarts for comparative. Humans would just not be able to come close on their own. At least not with out a dragon leading them in. At the time where this rp will start there are many tribes, but they all migrate for the festival over to this one. Well each dragon choose is if they will come or not. 

Each tribe has a nursery where its taken care of the eggs, some dragons choose to live in the tribe some not. The tribes are pretty big and have many variation in housing. Caves trees houses, etc. In the tribe our rp will happen there is a natural arena, surrounded by 3 sides by clifs and for more info look at location guide. 

<div class=""bb-h3""><font color=""red"">The Festival</font></div>

The festival is really important for the dragons. The duration of the festival varies from the time to time but it never shorter then a week and never longer then 4 weeks.
This time is when the biggest egg boom happens too. Because dragons from all around come in this time of celebration finding a partner is much more successfully. 
The main part of the festival is the Aging ceremony. Each dragon that chooses comes with his momentary age group and does one of two things to be considered older.
1. Show off their magic.
2. Challenge a dragon that is a age group over them.
In 1 they have to impress, get approved by most grandgrandma/pa that are there. In second the grandgrand choose the dragon against who they will fight, but they may accept a volunteer as the opponent. The fight last till one surrenders or one is K.O. if a dragon endangers the life of the other the GG will interrupt. 

Falling the Aging isnt considered too bad, its like failing a exam there is always the next time.

<div class=""bb-h3"">Magic</div>

What sort of magic does dragon wield?
Well 90% are element based, 10% are not.
So having a for example a water manipulating dragon is common, but a necromancy dragon is rare.
Some of the dragons can wield more then one type of magic. 
So a dragon wielding earth and snow can be found on occasion but a dragon wielding telekinesis and animal control is super super rare.

Most dragons just think and the magic happens some thought use poems, hums and words to help them keep their magic under control.
I will ask you guys not to just say water magic but to explain what he exactly do with the water magic, does he turn the water into balls and shot them use it as a whip, evaporate it etc.
And if you deiced to be able to create life from example light butterflies that allow you to see far away, then be aware that they will die fast as in within hours and cannot be complexes life forms.</div></div>

The place that is relevant for this rp is close to our dragons tribe, it is The Gold village that, has grown into a small city by this days. A dragon can reach it in less than 30 minutes flying, some fast flying ones can reach it even quicker.
 
Gold Village has a hospital, airship hangers and airport, a academy on which beside other things dragons are studied. A parliament, a house specially intended for public debates on topics that the people of the city worry about. Check the location guide.
There is a semi big market where one can find food, cloths all and everything including merchandise made from dragons body.
There are many bars who serve alcohol and even do not say a word about a dragon being in their establishment as long as he pays, if he doesnt pay well, a dead drunk dragon is a easy kill and worth a several million.
The currency are paper money. (For some feeling for the worth lets say the money is short called mon and for 100 mon you get 1 dollar.)
In the Gold Village there is 'The Hunters' guild specialized in killing dragons seeing them as beast ready to eat humans for dinner. Now the building lays in ashes.

And just because, we have on the other street side a small church housing a exiled powerful dragon.   Who tends to be more interested in doing what he wants then bothering himself with the hunters.</div></div>

His magic consists of the mixture of the two elements, fire and water. He can breathe either element or both to create a steam breathe. He can manipiluate fire or water into floating swords, using them against any opponent he has. His water magic has the ability to heal wounds and even suck out poisons.

Large scar going from his right eye down to his hip. Usually wears a light gray scarf to help cover his face. He has bright glowing purple eyes, and scales over his shoulders and chest. Stands around 5'8. Has long red hair going down to the middle of his back, though it's pulled in a neat low ponytail while the rest of his hair is messy and a little spikey, covering his oddly purple eyes usually.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Aster is more of a reclusive dragon, preferring to be by himself. He doesn't talk much and acts pretty cold most of the time, but in reality he is pretty lonely and has a kind heart. He's caring for his fellow dragons and most living things, even humans whom he's terrified of. He gets a bit bitter if someone makes fun of his flying. He's pretty cold to strangers, though is mostly nervous and shy to both humans and dragons alike. He enjoys swimming or just relaxing in a grassy field.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></span>
Aster was a egg when he lost his parents. They lived in a secluded cave in the mountains, but they were killed by a ambush of human hunters. Taking the egg in their possession, they traveled to a human village, though they accidentally dropped it down a cliff. Luckily, the egg did not break, but their was a large crack on the right side of it. It had been a long 800 years since his parents birthed his egg, and it only took five more after his egg was taken.

After he was hatched, it was noticed he had a large scar over his right eye and over his wing. A sign of the consequence of dropping him as a egg. The humans didn't mind since it most likely meant he would not be able to fly away from them. They kept him chained, and had him on display just to show what they accomplished. Poked him with shock sticks to make him obey and cracked spiked whips. How heroic they were for slaughtering a family and taking a mere newborn as a slave.

As time went by, the young dragon tried calling, roaring for help, but none ever came from his own kind. They could not either hear him or they simply did not want to risk it. He did not know. Chained to the ground, and as much as he tried, his injured right wing would not carry him off he ground and it ached since the day he hatched.

When his one hundred days hit, he turned into his compact form, and the chained collar was choking him. His compact form was bigger at the time and it wasn't a great moment for Aster as he just about suffocated. Just then though, a human boy perhaps in his young teen years came to him. Unlocking the chain. There was no time to ask questions as his odd savior quickly dragged him out, putting a cloak over the dragon. His captors did not seem to recognize him as their pet dragon, so they ignored them.

For a couple of days, Aster stayed with the boy in a cave in the woods. The boy called himself Zafine. At the time Aster didn't have a name and merely shook his head in response, unsure how to exactly react to this situation. This boy was human, the creature that had tormented him all his life, but also his savior. Zafine decided to call him Aster, since his dragon form shimmered like a star. The boy then explained that Aster needed to go to the Dragon Tribe, where he'd be safe. Since Aster could not fly, he'd just have to walk in his compact form.

Aster wanted to question how the boy knew so much, but couldn't find the words. So he left, journeying to the Dragon Tribe. It took perhaps ten years, in which his dragon form was about a teen.

When he arrived they welcomed him, though the other young dragons made fun of him for being flightless. Pointing out that even the wingless skinny dragons could fly. Thankfully the elders were kind to him, one even helping him fix up his wing as best as they could. Even though, he's not the best flier and is prone to fall if it gets too exhausted.

After five years of living with the Dragon Tribe and learning the customs of his kind as well as he a better flier, he found himself unsure where to go next. It felt odd being among fellow Dragons since he was not born amongst them, yet he feared humans for what they did to him. Yet at the same time he kept thinking back on that young human boy whom had saved his life. Deciding to risk it, he flew back to where Zafine had nursed him to health at that cave. Of course, the boy was not there, instead it was a full grown man. Age twenty-three in human years, a time in their prime apparently. 

Zafine was glad to see the beautiful dragon again, and greeted him with the same warmth he had showed as a boy. Aster found that he wasn't as afraid of this human... Perhaps the only human he did not fear. Staying at that cave, Aster lived mostly in his compact form, in fear that if any other human discovered him, they would kill him. His human comrade agreed, explaining that many hunters would adore his scales and sharp teeth and claws.

A couple years passed and everyday Zafine would come visit the dragon. This was the only person Aster found he could properly talk with, even smile and laugh. They talked about how humans and dragons lived, their fears, their dreams.... Until Aster found himself falling into a great sin. Falling in love with a human. It was quite ironic really, living the thing he feared... Yet Zafine was different from his tormentors. He was kind, and full of life, even went out of his way to make the dragon laugh.

It was wrong he knew, humans lived such tiny lives in comparison and their magic was much too small to produce a dragon egg... But he couldn't help it. He never felt lonely with this man around. So he accepted the fate of simply watching the human grow old, being with him until his last breathe. Aster chose to stay and watch as Zafine eventually found his own love with a beautiful human woman. Although painfully, he watched happily at his friend's happiness. After a few years, when Zafine was of thirty five years of age, he had his own children, a boy and a girl. Zafine happily showed Aster his family, and the children loved playing wih the dragon, though the wife was more wary.

Eight years after the children were born, something grave happen. Waking up in the middle of the night, Aster saw fire coming from the village. Worried for his human friends he went into the village in his compact form, only to discover Zafine's home burnt into ashes, scorch marks everywhere. He found the bodies of Zafine, his wife, and boy child dead and burnt. Their daughter crying over them.

At first, Aster was shocked at the sight before he heard a mighty roar in the skies. Looking up he saw a huge adult dragon raining hellfire upon the terrorized village. Shock and surprise soon passed into utter rage. Transforming into his true self, the young Dragon flew into a furious rage and confronted the other dragon in battle.

It was a difficult battle considering he was still a teen and he sustained quite a bit of injuries, he managed to drive the other dragon off. After it was over, he took Zafine's surviving daughter and flew off to a safer place. At the age of fifty he became a adult and left to live on his own by a lake, where he raised the human girl until she was old enough to be on her own, before leaving her in a human village to live amongst her own kind. Although she disputed the idea, Aster refused, insisting she was better off with other humans before leaving.

Over the years, he does check how the family of the human whom he once loved are fairing, though he is mostly forgotten, the humans he knew long dead.

Recently, he was captured by human hunters, but rescued.[/hider]

Still being a child, Damia cannot do too much magic. She manages to make the basic dragon breath. The left head breathes a light green sparkling mist that gives a calming aroma that has minor healing factors and blooms flowers. Her right head breathes a more foul odar that can be suffocating if one breathes it in too long, as well as turns plants that breathe in enough into a more intellectual plant creatures.

Damia is two headed dragon with a body like a snake and large set of wings just two feet below the split between the heads. She is a long dragon, about 30 feet long, but she isn't the biggest of dragons.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Compact looks</span></span>

She stands around 5'0 and her scales are on her forehead, which she covers with her head band.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Damia is a bit of a odd sort, having a slight split personality. Most of the time, she's energetic and friendly to others. Eager to meet and greet with her fellow dragons amongst the tribe. Other times she is challenging and even violent, eager to to grow and be a mighty full grown dragon. She's adventurous, and enjoys exploring around the lands, but does not stray too far from the Dragon Tribe, not completely willing to meet with any confrontations like humans. Her heads tend to represent her inner thoughts. He left being the more friendly, do what's right, the right head being more ruthless. For example, with humans the left wouldn't want to hurt them, thinking maybe some are good, while the right would wonder how they would eat and notes they should rip them apart. It's like having the constant angel and devil on the shoulder banter.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></span>
Damia was hatched into the tribe in the rookery amongst many other Dragon eggs. Her parents often being adventurous and flying off into other lands, meeting with other Dragon Tribes. Whenever they returned, they would share glorious tales of their adventures. Explaining different cultures some tribes had, as well as the intriguing news on the humans. Humans evolving with such odd knowledge with their technology and culture of their little wars. Some tales shining light upon them, some making them out to be savage monsters.

The other dragonlings teased her a bit for her two heads, since multi headed dragons were a bit rarer, but she either ignored them or snapped at them to be quiet. She dreams of being flying out on her own like her parents, but for now she settles with bugging the older dragons in telling her tales. Especially during the Dragon Festival.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background &amp; Personality</span></span>
Myrtle is a outgoing and adventurous individual who loves to travel in the skies. She likes deeming herself to be the best pilot around as well as the best one to fix up a skyship. One could call her a bit weird, since she often talks fast mostly about tech and gets overly excited in anything related to it and flying. She's a bit bold, not afraid to get into peoples faces or to drag them into something. Overall though, she's kind hearted and is willing to help out others in whatever way she can. Even if her way may not be the correct way. Tends to joke around a lot.

As a little girl, she's always dreamed of being in the skies. Her grand mother telling stories of a mighty creature called a dragon whom had raised her until she was old enough to be on her own. How it was to fly through the skies with the wind blowing through her hair. Although finding a dragon and flying by them would be a dream come true, Myrtle wanted to be able to fly on her own as well. So she studied hard in the city when she was just a young teen in engineering and piloting a skyship. Working hard enough to become a professional at the young age of sixteen. But her quest for knowledge never ceases as she researches ways to make skyships better, and to improve human transportation. What better way then to research dragons?

Myrtle was working one day, pondering on plans before remembering her grandmothers tale on the Dragon. She told her tales that there were several different kinds of dragons. Some using wings to fly, some even just using magic to fly, though she herself had never seen them. If this was true, then perhaps there could be a way to improve skyships. Though humans had not nearly close enough magic talent to a dragon, some specialized in it and perhaps researching the creatures would overall assist in human lives. So she set off to search for the dragon her grandmother had lived with. A difficult search indeed, but thanks to some descriptions on the creatures habits and looks, as well as a skyship... She eventually managed to find him.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Plot Idea</span></span>
For years, humans have been living well off their flying machines for travel as well as using weapons to hunt, but their resources are a bit dwindling, making it more difficult to use their machines efficiently. Myrtle hopes to learn from Dragons, the creatures who are long lived and most likely hold the greatest knowledge in many manners such as magic, a potential resource that could be used to assist powering the machines. As well as possible trading partners. But to know someone of such a different culture, one must be full in it. What better way to learn but by being right in the middle of dragon social life and customs revealed in a festival? And if dragons wish, they could come and do the same in the human world. Of course hiding their identity since humans freak out a lot. Good luck to Myrtle hiding dragons in the city though.</div></div>

Magic: Dream/Nightmare. He has the ability to reveal someone's strongest fear. Sucking them into a world contorted from their absolute terrors. So much so it can lead someone in tears and his dreams are so lifelike, someone can feel what happens to them. If one is burning, they feel the horrors if burns, the smell of smoke and rotting flesh... As well, he can make pleasant dreams... And trap someone into a pleasant slumber for all eternity if they do not wish to escape such a wonderful dream. His breathe can be a black fire, or a strange mist that lulls someone to sleep. He's powerful enough to place cursed over countries, rain hellfire, and make some dreams a reality

Stands around 6'8. He has red eyes and horns curving from his head and scales along his ears. Almost always wears a black hooded cloak.

Personality: A pretty odd elder dragon and a powerful one at that, he pretty much does what he wants. Seeming neutral when it comes to humans and dragons. He still attends the dragon festival, and is known to be a bit mysterious if not a bit mischievous. He seems to play by his own rules, messing with others in his own way. He gives information of both dragons and humans but not enough to be threatening to either race, seeming to do both harm and good for both. He loves eating humans, and used to burn down villages in his younger years, but now he seems content relaxing a bit more and getting free meals from Dragon Churches. Enjoys playing with riddles and tricks and messing with younger dragons, and he can come off as mean and cruel sometimes, until he actually helps out which can often confuse others of his intentions. Can sometimes show a strange kindness to others. He's often playful and teasing. Although he seems to keep a cool head most of the time, he does tend to be possessive in what he considers his and youngsters seeming not to realize that fact.

Background: Draken's hatching took around 1,000 years, and he aged to adult at fifty. In his younger years of teens and as a adult, he often went and burned down villages, gulping down humans as he went. Humans being his favored taste. His attacks calmed though and soon he stopped at the age of 100 when he turned into a grandfather. The humans of the Dragon Church made a deal with him, serving as one of their gods and in return he would receive peace and meals. Even those of humans that were meant to be executed. He agreed, deciding relaxing would be good for him. The dragon hunters took interest of a dragon so nearby, but could not use the old dragon for their needs, being protected by the church. So instead they wished for his assistance against his own kind. Draken sort of agreed, telling what sorts of dragons they caught were and the rules, but never revealed the location of any dragon homes or the dragon tribe, frustrating the dragon hunters with his little of help. Though when a dragon does attack where the town he is currently residing in, he will go out and protect it, so the hunters have little to complain about. In turn though, Draken attends the festivals and reveals some information he has on humans to his own kind, but also not revealing too much. Seeming to find this almost a amusing game. Or simply another test for those he meets. Who can say?

He has a few hatchlings in his years, one of them being Damia.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Syrilth

<span class=""bb-b"">Dragon Age:</span> Adult

<span class=""bb-b"">Age from hatching:</span> 300

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span> 

Shadow Magic
Syrilth can manipulate and produce shadows by will. The shadows produced are able to be utilized in several different ways, allowing for a high level of adaptibility; the shadows are able to be released in freeform, as condensed, or even molded into the shape of a weapon, taking on the properties of said chosen shape.

Ice Magic
Syrilth is able to produce large quantities of ice from her body in order to attack her opponents. With this magic, she is able to quickly form a great variety of ice structures that are suitable for a diverse range of purposes, no matter if the nature of these circumstances require offensive or defensive purposes.

Syrilth would also mix the two magics. She could create a condensed ball of shadows that would explode and have ice shards shooting out of them to the opponent, or also produce a roar incorporating both shadows and ice.

<span class=""bb-b"">Dragon and Compact looks:</span> <img src=""http://www.wallpapersis.com/wallpapers/2013/02/Beautiful-White-Dragon-Girl-Love-Protection-2048x2560.jpg""/> 
A rather small dragon in comparison to other adults, Syrilth stands at 50ft, with black scales below the white fur. Syrilth has a pair of large, black scaled wings, the top part having additional white fur.
The compact takes the form of a 16 year old female human at 5.3ft, and it ages quite slowly. The compact also has black scales from her shoulders down to the elbows, which Syrilth usually covers with long sleeves.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
A quite powerful dragon, Syrilth is quite humble. She's a dragon who would only approach another dragon when necessary and rarely makes friends, except when they approach her. She enjoys both solitary moments and those of company. For her lack of friendliness, she doesn't have that many friends save for a few, but she appreciates that lot. She is an understanding dragon and you could rant about your problems to her, she won't bite. Although if she was angered before or is in an irritable mood, that's not a good course of action. Also, Syrilth likes flying and swimming, they're the two relaxing things that calm her down.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>

Raised in the wild under her parents' care, it took her 100 years to hatch. As a child, she was still taken care of by her parents. They taught her various things- flying, swimming, hunting, controlling and developing her magic, etc. They also instilled morals and values in her. When she had come to love her parents and grown rather fond of them though, they disappeared on her one night, leaving her to fend for herself. They were gone when she woke up. It was saddening and infuriating, but she still understood their intentions. 

She ended up travelling around the world as a growing child, with no clear intention except to explore and find out new places, avoiding the eyes of hunters. She does occasionally come and go from the humans' cities in her compact form. She also met many dragon tribes in her travels, but at one point set up her home in one that she quite liked its location and inhabitants' company. She still travels, but returns back to her home whenever she wants to, and is now a full-grown adult.</div></div></div>"

Name: Abraxas, ""Man's Bane""

Age: 50
 
Personality: Abraxas is a mysterious entity, who is a conflicted creature. He can be animalistic at times with little reasoning and is aggressive, preforming acts of violence quite frequently. He is naturally a malevolent creature but can be reasoned with. Due to his imprisonment he has a deep hatred for humans but knows nothing of the outside world. He has a corrupting influence on magic and those that get too close.

Looks: <img src=""http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs45/i/2009/148/9/8/Kuntimong__Demon_Lord_by_Gandharvasstudio.jpg""/>

Alternative looks: Has none yet.

Background: He was born in a place far away, to parents who abandoned their offspring. His siblings were either eaten or killed within the first couple of days, for only the strong survived. By chance he was set upon by the hunters not a week old, yet already as large as a big dog. They captured him, as he was not yet dangerous enough to pose a threat to challenge their safety. Abraxas soon learned the cruelness of the humans as they frequently lashed out at their captives, deeming them inferior, lower then dragons. He wondered what a dragon was, and if it could be eaten with one gulp.

Months later, and now as large as a man they arrived at the prison in the darkness of night. The journey itself was harsh and his cage was covered with a black cloth to hide him from the sun and prying eyes. Every time he tried to escape his confinement, he found that the bars burned his skin at the lightest touch but it didn't stop him from trying. Days became weeks, weeks turned into months and the passing of time blurred into years. Throughout those years he grew into a formidable demon, the size of an upright grizzly bear, looking down upon the guards always. His brute strength made him deemed dangerous, and instead of moving him to a different cell, they built a larger, more durable one around the old. That was until his metamorphism began around the age of 25.

It would last for another 25 years, changing his body slightly, making him become infused with dark magic. This magic was of flame and shadow, and deadly to those that would incur his wrath. The shadow was about him at all times, and the flame he could call upon at will. It engulfed him, wrapping around his body like a blanket, free flowing. It was dark and it suited him for upon his awakening, he found things in ruins, the prison that once contained him in flames. He broke free from his old confinement and clawed his way up to the surface. The light blinded his glowing blue eyes and when they adjusted he saw a strange place, full of rock towers and thick layers of fog. He walked away from the rubble, quickly coming to a street full of humans and their devices. His revenge had begun, yet in this world he did not know, there were creatures more dangerous then humans..

Did they escape the hunters prison?: Yes</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> 'Scaleless' Keepakura the Liar
<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 24
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Keepa comes off as a charismatic sweetheart, interested in others' doings and especially human culture. Kind and elegant in their tact to the point of bordering the uncanny valley with their often lack of reaction to hostility and hatred. Its suspected that this is mostly a ruse to lure in prey which ended up being defining characteristics of their personality out of instinct and habit. When threatened, Keepa shows the stark two-face of his coined behavious; violent and vindictive, determined to extinguish even the potential of ongoing threat to themselves and whatever they may care about. As a dragon, this is the sort of behavior that gives them a bad name. As a demon, such behavior classifies Keepa as 'wild', a shunned ranking of caste from his homeland which regards him as predictable as a starved, crazed dog. As a human, hes seen as a liar and a murderer. In all reality, he would rather be left alone, although his nature and physiology compels him to seek out life. He isn't bad, per se, just built poorly for the civilized world...or built <span class=""bb-i"">perfectly</span> for it. The judgement is mostly left to interpretation.
 
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Magic-like Abilities</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">-</span> Keepa has a refined control of life energy, mostly for the purpose of consumption and personal perseverance. The process is similar to a leech, although the rate is controllable on some levels. With a max range of about five meters and a max effectiveness with skin-contact, affected individuals feel a slight sense of exhaustion which grows from prolonged exposure (1 hour feels like 2, 2 hours feel like 5). This can be suppressed at will, although Keepa lives off of others, parasitically and the thought of stopping doesn't often occur. This can be applied to all living beings, though it functions considerably slower on plants then it does other living creatures.

<span class=""bb-b"">=</span> While absorbed energy is added to their mass, it <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> possible for Keepa to reverse-burn his own mass into a subject for the purpose of healing even nearly fatal wounds. However, this consumes a considerable amount of mass in order to 'sew' life back into the subject, piecing them back together or replacing lost flesh. Wounds healed in such ways are stained with jagged black scars that eventually fade over the course of a week to a month depending on the severity. With the mass required to heal severe wounds, Keepa <span class=""bb-i"">may not</span> be able to fully heal a subject without taking on considerable mass from outside sources in the process. This is a procedure which has not been often implemented and is highly inefficient.

Fire is a functioning substitute, Keepa is otherwise highly resilient to most elemental and physical damage.

It has been a while since I've had any company. If you don't mind me saying, it is quite hard to see you from here...ma'am? Sir! Right, my apologies. You are very quiet, and you keep it so bright. Where was I? Ah, well, starting from the beginning is what I am best at, wouldn't you agree? Hmm~? hu hu hu~!

I was once the talk of the town, a saber-slicker in their own right before being propositioned by a handsome young human.

Maybe you just like me~
I cannot entirely entertain an ideas as to why, though... *sigh*
Compliments!? Oh my, maybe today <span class=""bb-i"">is</span> a good day. You're nothing like the others that tried beating me or flaying me for scales I do not have. Pretty smart; pretty <span class=""bb-i"">and</span> smart~ 
Just a joke, just a joke! I only figured you would like a compliment in return. Oh, come on, don't leave! 
______________________________

The subject has repeatedly insisted they be called an array of different names, all of which come with various backgrounds and variations of cooperation. They have settled on 'Keepa' now, although the staff refer to them simply as 'The Liar'
Liar was picked up on the outskirts of the Gold Village after reports of bodies found in alleys. Most were armed and considered either muggers or the like, but concern arose with the note that none of the bodies possessed significant wounds and had simply perished from apparent heart failure. Regardless of their crimes, it was official that we had a situation on our hands. Liar was later recovered in the middle of its apparent feeding on another victim, subdued with UV lights and transported to the prison before it could recombine. The Liar was held for three years before the breakout and is still considered at large. Little is known about the subject and caution is encouraged. Their whereabouts are unknown as of the moment.</div></div>

I prefer no hybrids. They are different species. Horses and fish do not make babies either.
Humans and dragons can fall in love but cannot make babies. Similar for dragon demons hybrids.

Humans/demons cannot add enough magic to help in creating a dragon egg and dragon do not have the body/organs that can support the developing baby.

There maybe experiments on the prisoner demons to forcefully make demon babies.
Demon human babies I will leave that one open for now. Demons reproduction is a mystery so maybe it could work as part of a hunters experiment with the demons. Not in a natural way!

<span class=""bb-b"">Magic:</span>Shadow and Madness, He is able to solidify, manipulate, and energize shadows, making them into a variety of constructs, be they animate or inanimate, as well as replicate the effects of other elements by making the shadow take on the aspects of it, ex. Shadow lightning. He can also take the shape of a shadow to escape from most, if not all situations, and he can even shape shift into other people and creatures. Madness allows him to drive those of weak will and low power into Insanity, then he can control them through their insanity as well. Madness also has the ability to mutate life, turning it into a twisted version of what it once was. Anything that he changes with magic can be reverted with little difficulty, and he can even choose how they will go insane. It can be an bout of paranoia, a loss of inhibitions, anything he can think of. Even if the target has a string will, he can influence them heavily into a type of insanity, giving them whisperings of paranoia, make them more likely to act with out rational thought, or make them think they want to waddle around and cluck like a chicken. The only one's to be completely unaffected by this magic are Great GrandFather/GrandMother Dragons, and even then, it's only a matter of time.

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span>He doesn't remember
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> It changes with his form, as does his name, making it hard to strike find him if you don't know them all. Insomnium is a berserker in battle, ripping apart anything in his path, but in life he's a rather gentle and childish. 

Morpheus is rather mysterious, preferring not to speak, but to observe. He hardly acts upon anything that doesn't involve him in some way, and is known to give gifts to some of the people he observes, though no one knows why.

Gaiden is fairly hot-headed and, being the most human looking of all the forms, is usually the form taken when dealing with them is needed and violence is unwise. Gaiden loves to party and loves hanging out with humans, especially the women. Something about the way a human smells sets his soul aflame with passion, though he is hardly ever recieved with ooen arms.

Azous is believed to be the original form, but none of the others are sure. His attitude is summed up in one word, Lazy. Azous will do nothing unless he is threaten by certain death, and thus
<span class=""bb-b"">Looks:</span> Doesn't remember his original form, assumed to be Azous
<span class=""bb-b"">Powers:</span> Each Persona has a different power, Gaiden has extremely good healing factor, making him basically immortal, but is only a physically and magically capable as a human. Insomnium has berserker rage, thick hide and scales, incredible dense body, but his mind is easily invaded by mental abilities and magic. Morpheus has self reproduction, meaning he can clone himself, and Azous is separated from reality, making him unaffected by everything, but making him unable to affect anything as well. Basically, he's a ghost.

I will copy Jeonbae into the Character section as well, and Ocotlantli once he is accepted.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Ocotlantli"" type=""button"">Ocotlantli [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Name:</span> Ocotlantli (or just Ocotl for short)</div>
<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 356 (since capture)</div>
<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span></div> 

Largely neutral towards humans, but even though he was captured he is able to recognize that only some dislike him and will treat them kindly. Ocotl speaks slowly and carefully, if he speaks at all, which is rarely. However, he moves quickly and sharply, often being impulsive in movement only, despite his normally meditative nature. He attempts to avoid conflict whenever possible, but his cold personality can sometimes rub people the wrong way, and he ends up having to fight. Surprisingly, he has a rather dark sense of humor, even though he has almost never made a joke. He enjoys the company of other creatures, and doesn't mind being the center of attention. He'll make silent suggestions about where to go, but prefers to stay out of human affairs. Ocotl is helpful to a fault, often never hesitating to assist any sort of creature without questioning it, sometimes landing him into trouble or danger. He values kindness in a companion, and if you can convince him of it, he will be loyal to you for a long time.

<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Looks:</span></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""General Appearance"" type=""button"">General Appearance [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://th08.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2013/240/c/e/floran_by_daemonstar-d6k2f3t.jpg""/></div></div> 

He can take almost any tree-like humanoid form he wishes, different colored leaves, different types of leaves, patterned bark, hanging fruits (sometimes edible), as well as height to a certain degree.

However, he cannot discard or change his form at will once it has been made, unless it is destroyed or burned, at which point his spirit can inhabit a tree and create a new form using its energy, but destroying the tree in the process. The older or larger the tree, the more powerful he is in physical strength. The form does not naturally decompose, as it is technically alive. If he does not regain a form quickly after having his previous one destroyed, his spirit will be easy to capture, or it will eventually dissipate and he will die.

<div class=""bb-h2""><span class=""bb-b"">Background</span></div> Ocotlantli was created by an eccentric but very skilled Great-Grandfather Dragon many years ago with incredible power over nature in order to serve as a bodyguard and protector for him. Existing as a spirit of nature, and freely able to change forms within nature at will. Eventually, he was captured and forced into a tree, the dragon bending and shaping the tree to look like a human. He was very violent at first, the Dragon often having to restrain him using his magic. The Dragon treated him with the utmost kindness, and in time Ocotl calmed down, growing kind and loyal like his master. Over several years, the Dragon created two more creatures like Ocotl, named Ocotlihuian, and Ocotlipaquil. 

One day, the Dragon was set upon by a massive group of hunters, having been tipped off by a local village. They managed to surprise the Dragon, but the three warriors rushed to his aid. The battle lasted for several hours, and Ocotlihuian and Ocotlipaquil were overwhelmed by the hunters sheer force, their forms burnt to ash. Ocotlantli managed to stay strong for longer, but he too was burned up, and his master killed after the long battle, his power depleted from the long battle. Unable to stay as a spirit, he consumed a tree and created a new form for himself using it. With Ocotlihuian's and Ocotlipaquil's whereabouts unknown, and the Dragon defeated, he wandered forests and landscapes, exploring human society. However, he quickly learned that his presence was feared, and often had to take new forms, as he did not understand that humans did not like him, and got burned up.

While on the outskirts of a small town one day, a young woman found him, and fearful, went to go tell the town's marshal. Just as she was about to run away, she stopped, and went back to him, becoming friends with him. After spending several weeks being friends with the woman, spending afternoons talking with her and learning about the human world, she introduced him to the townspeople. They were scared and angry at first at his strange appearance, but after some convincing by the girl, they accepted him and even started being kind to him, like the Dragon did so many years ago, realizing that humans aren't so bad after all. Some villagers taught him basic combat, and he became skilled with the sword and quarterstaff very quickly, but he ultimately disliked using them. He left the village many years ago, but still visits sometimes, preferring to wander the forests, hills, and mountains instead and discover as many new things about the human and dragon world as possible.

He had recently been captured by the Hunter's Guild, his personality being ideal for a servant or laborer, about four months prior to now.</div></div></div>"

second

Any dragon living in the tribe who would offer their house/cave for a teen wind dragon Siabel to crash in with their pet human Momo who was invited to the festival by the GGM/GGF?

Third about the people knowing each other

I do wonder if the demons who were in prison together would know each other?

And about the dragons most are have seen you in passing dont know your name. Expect the GGM/GGP everyone knows about them.

About the character from the previous rp:
Draken - a powerful exiled dragon living in a church, helped the dragons escape in a indirect fashion and was invited together with his church humans pet(s) to the tribe during the festival. A thank you gift.
 
Chu knows Aster both are adults and know each other they went with a group of dragons for drinking in the city and Chu was the sole dragon who didnt end up captured, but helped their escape... Chu flirts with aster, trying to seduce him so he could make dragon eggs. 

Chu knows Jeonbae they both live in the same tribe and share a fascination with humans. Jeo was captured by hunters, and helped the dragons escape the cell to be rescued from the prison.

Myrtle - she is friends with aster, she sneaked in the tribe with Aster, much to aster displeasure. Chu after a few misunderstandings was thinking Myrtle was a baby dragon. She helped with the rescue of the dragons. 

Sealameet - was busy flirting and being part of the cuties paring together with Vesperia (another adult dragon) out there during the evening/night of the capture/rescue. SO he pretty much missed out on it.

Lucatiel - lives in the dragon tribe and will know most of the dragons that live in the tribe or have a artist vein like her. Sister of Sealameet.

Ezekiel Verdirosi - Priest of the Dragon Church, Drakens dragon church. He didnt helped the rescue directly, but was there for any help his lord Draken asked him off.

Chu - knows most child and babies dragons. Like the human Myrtle even after the misunderstanding was cleared up. He likes to help out the nursery, his goal to fall in love and make a ton of eggs. <span class=""bb-s"">plans his wedding with aster</span> Helped the rescue, knows some of the dragons in the tribe most he knows just from seeing.

Siabel doesnt know anyone very well. Likes human company some bit more than dragons. LIkes Myrtle and finds Ezekiel interesting talk to person. Is scared of draken, and reluctant towards any other powerfully dragons. Helped the rescue against her will on the order of the Grand grand mother.

Momo - human pet of Siabel, friends with myrtle, and befriending Ezekiel. Tries to be nice and likable by all dragons, giving out small gifts to please them and get their good mood. Doesnt really know other dragons that well yet. Only by name a few.

Mirazan - Knows a lot of dragons and treat them all like a mother would. Organised the rescue.

Moris - doesnt have any relation to the dragon he knew chu from the earth dragon frequented the shop to get drunk. Told the hunters that a group of dragon arrived at his bar triggering the events. He is a ex hunter.





I think I didnt forgot anyone from the one who moved to this rp. All the other characters are new or were not used, or that I do not remember them doing anything too noticeable.

Hope this helps and is a answer to the question of who knows who. Your old guys correct me and fill in if I forgot something in my sum ups.

Nexia is a strong dragon, are you planning for him to try for the grandfather ceremony? His magic level sounds about right for that.

<a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/hawlin"">@Hawlin</a> yes there may have been more dragons in the prison, and following the route the previous groups used to escaped you may meshed to come along. Thats a working idea. Than the one to look out would be draken.

Thanks, and I'd want to say yes, but he may or may not be appearing to underachieve so he doesn't have to stay trapped in the Tribe. He's too much of a free spirit to stay stuck in one place forever, and he knows that becoming a GrandFather will likely put a stop to that, as he'll be expected to take up more responsibility in the protection for the village. As for Siabel and Momo, they'd be safe, and their would be no permanent damage or mental scarring, it's just very exhausting living with him, due to his mischievous nature and lack of any real inhibition. He respects the morals of dragon culture, but everything else he sees as fair game.</div>"

Silly one, grandfathers can travel the world too. Some never stay in one place. There are even grand grand mothers/fathers who are following their own adventure. So becoming older wouldnt change a thing. Its the dragons who choose to take more responsibility that do just that. No one awaits anything from a dragon because of their free will.

I will think for it, Siabel would search a calm place, so not too sure if she would accept the offer. At least if she thinks it would be a calm place hm....Maybe then ....</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Age:</span> 400

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span>
Hazel has a laid-back facade yet impulsive personality, often times leading her into funny situations and will get serious when she needs to. She has a good charisma, and while it is too expressive and dramatic which can often be seen as awkward, eccentric and too heart burning, this is what makes her one of a kind. Hazel was quite obstinate and reckless when she was younger, but over time, she has attained a more cautious attitude towards life, and deals with problems carefully. She is very concerned about his comrades and is truly loyal towards her loved ones, but tends to act differently by using methods that are pragmatic. Also, she has a habit of saying flamed/fire related speeches every now and then.

<span class=""bb-b"">Looks:</span>Hazel dislike seeing the part of herself a flame demon and anything demon related especially her true shape, appearance, and form. Denying every fiber of herself and prefers to stay in her human form. Her human form is a young girl that stands 5'5 ft tall with long black hair and slim yet quite busty built, however; Hazel cannot deceive the mark of herself, her red blood scarlet eyes easily distinguishes her from most humans thus unable to escape the fate of being hunted.

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>Born from the center is hot as flames, the hottest it can be; really a place of notorious hot weather, the hunters took Hazel away from her home; as an infant demon she is so advanced that she can understand what the hunters were saying. Red hot tears, the tears of her kin, a certain specie of flamed demons were known for creating tear gems and such tears is vivid for it is just like any other diamonds but a belief claimed by superstitious people that the tear is worth more than any jewel and it possess healing powers. Her kind was captured and tortured to death to shed these tears.

The hunters rather humans to her were nothing more than blind and greedy people who seek nothing more than reaches and as the years past, Hazel blindly serves them for her life in exchange for her own kind. In short, she was subjected into killing her own kind, to the point of convincing that her kind was evil. Hazel showed no remorse in killing her own kind but in some occasion apart of her is crying and feeling pain, killing and killing just for tears of riches, she went through a life worst than the so called ""Hell"" where most demons are believed it to be home but the term of hell in her own case is different, a fate worst than death to the depths of hell is tearing her apart.

One day, she got fed up of it. She rebelled to seek her own freedom and to avenge what was taken from her in spite of her murdering against her own kind. She shed tears that aren't diamonds but tears of anger, agony, hatred, revenge, and love for her adversaries and kin. Becoming what she is today, a walking carnage who slays demons and bad people alike. Yes, she escaped the hunters but huge events await her tale. Hazel had been studying magic to deal with her adversaries, advanced fire magic as well as light magic despite her being a Flame Demon, naturally born with fire abilities but only hellish.</div></div></div>"

True that~
*om nom on your energy if you choose to stay in the shade or near it (to an extent)*
I intend to chase you out, these human swine are <span class=""bb-i"">mine</span> to dine upon, kinsman!

EDITED at the end of the post to express that Keepa isn't a fighter in these conditions. He intends to win through 'attrition'.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""combat conditions"" type=""button"">combat conditions [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Keepa stepped out of a patch of sun in order to leak his essence into the shadows, increasing his proximity for as long as both you or him remain in the same patch of shade. There is the space between buildings where the shadows part for the alleyway. Keepa's mass burns in sunlight and couldn't chase you across those gaps, but for the time that you spend in the shade where you are, a darkness licks at Abraxas' legs, stealing his vigor with the passing moment.

Keepa can easily be beaten back, being light and physically unimposing in his human form, although your own shadow towering over him serves the same purpose as the buildings. I figure it would give you a chance to wreak a bit of havoc but ultimately be given the ability to come back at a later time in a different place against a different enemy. I'm sorry for using you in this way as to introduce my character. :x

ELem there are things I wanted to ask you demons.

How would the hunters try to capture the demons? How do you imagine that? Would the hunters use tolls made out of dragon body to fight demons? For example I can imagine dragon bone arrows could pierce even the thick skin of the demons, and poison created by dragon manipulating poison element would have effect? Or about nets made out of dragon skin?

Or would you demons prefer to be hunted by metal weapons, steam powered machine gun, for example?

It's a good question for I was wondering what to write about it, as our fighting would probably be drawing in a lot of attention by now. I'm sure they would either try to capture us or straight out kill us since they don't have the proper facilities to hold us anymore. I'm guessing they would also use the best weapons that they have now that their city is being flooded with demons, but that's just my opinion. Or perhaps the majority of their equipment was destroyed in the fire and everything they have left is now being used to either kill or make us flee the city.</div>"

I can see there being a few storage of weapons around the city which they would use. 


My idea for the hunters would  be for them not to try to capture the demons or kill them. Because their prison is in ruins and their guild burned. So it true there is no where to put the demons XD They plans are to sho the demons away so to scare the general public into giving them the funds they want. The demons attacking is the only thing stopping the regular forces of order to arrest all the hunters. XD The hunters leaders are aware of that and want to ensure their own surviving over the one of some people dying.

I secretly hoped some more people would pick humans or human hunters so the plot of the rotten hunter guild could be played out too. Maybe the guild falling apart in two and such^^

Still back on topic, You can assume the hunters would patiently sit and wait while the city is chaos waiting for the leading people of the city to beg for them to help, with the demon problem. One can too assume normal guards attempting to fight the demons and getting murdered easily  off, too.</div>"

Name: Milo Cash

Age: 250

Personality: Milo is very protective of creatures, and is slow to form strong bonds to people but once they are formed it takes a lot to destroy. 

Background: Milo is considered young for a demon of his type. On his home plane, he trained as a ""summoner"" pulling creatures from other planes to do his bidding. Though the creatures always have a chance to resist and do as it wishes. This happened unfortunately when he summoned a dragon, ripped from the ""material"" plane. It rampaged and went about destroying all Milo knew as home, ruining his life. He tried to banish it, and continuously failed until he managed to strike a deal with the dragon. The deal was ""Take me (the dragon) home, and I let what is left of your people live."" Milo carried out the deal, but as he wasn't proficient in portal magic he had to go to the government for help who quickly banished him with the dragon for destroying half of the city. 
He has lived on this plane for only a few months trying to blend into society. 

Did they escape the hunters prison? No

Sooooo For aster and chu, <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/silver-fox"">@Silver Fox</a> Should we let fairies play a prank on them or maybe see if there is a free character wanting to get involved and ruins chu secret plans for Aster?

Maybe have bad feelings or want to use him a hunter to get to other hunters. Viola a hostage situation~ 
 
Elem, depends on the dragon I think, on how they are doing.

What demons should do? Well what would they do? Escape the city? Or try to fuel the hate against the hunters?
Or Like the tree demon who is searching for a specific dragon. XD Or maybe a demon is searching a specific human? Or a specific item you are searching.

You are free to use the NPC and make your own too. 

I will try and write on Saturday a post that involves the hunter guild if no one pick it and do it before me and make a something like their attempt to scare the demons a bit and such.

I will share some of my random ideas I get use it inspire it and such to help out. ^^
-Find 1-2 more demons who would work with the demon and try to invade a place in the human city. The dragon church/The magic academy/The human parliament/ or even the king place/Or invent a location like a museum
Why? To recover something or obtain information on how to return home.

-Want revenge? Choose a target and try to write your way to it. Maybe its a ex hunter, or the hunter chef it self. Or maybe make a NPC which will be something like a rival that out tricks you. 

-Want power? Try getting to the other demons and manipulates them to end up making them work for you.

-Similar to the first idea but with dragons themed, finding a specific dragon, or a item that was stolen from you by a dragon and put in the horde. Or maybe you think one of the shadow/dark/-insert magic- dragons may help you find your home?

-Use faires to your pleasure. Maybe you eat them? Maybe you ruin their home the little peps may beg to a dragons for assistance to deal with the demons assaulting them. 

-A demons past may play a big role, you have secrets? How would you react if they are being discovered by other demons?

Share what ever random idea you have and jump on other peoples ideas. OOC is meant for that ^^ Use the location guide for inspiration too. ^^</div>"

I will do a sum up:

-Market place 2 demons one ignored the other, hunters started shooting and one is still there the other run towards the barrier. 

-Moris on the rooftop, Two demons in the alleyways under him. &lt;- I will use it *giggles* <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/hawlin"">@Hawlin</a>

-Two dragons in the forest with fairies and Nexias falling in the same forest unleashing his magic all around. Say <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/raijinslayer"">@Raijinslayer</a> how would Nexias magic act on pixies and fairies? 

-A demon running up towards the magic shield of the dragon tribe. This would give a reasonable and good chance to stop the fight between ToRaNe and Nexias, with out having to beat the other dragon up. Making the GGP go maybe in his compact form to stop the running fire destruction truck of a demon? What do you think? <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/lord-zee"">@Lord Zee</a>

-GGM Mirazan is at the waterfalls with two demons.

-Siabel, Momo and one more dragon are at the crystal shop with Lucatiel. Not sure in which direction to push this story. Any ideas? <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/argetlam350"">@Argetlam350</a>

-I was thinking to make the fairies beg Chu and Aster to go and check where their friends are in the city. TO give reason for the two to return? And who knows maybe run in the demons of the city. What do you think <a class=""bb-mention"" href=""/users/silver-fox"">@Silver Fox</a> Should we do that or maybe something else?

-Draken is speaking to his child with the priest by his side.

-There are a few characters who lack any interaction, Lets brain storm shall we?

That's kinda why I was confused who was being shot at. :P

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span></div>
The Free Republic is governed by directly elected representatives in the Grand Council made up of two hundred Councilors, who then elect an executive Small Council, made up of 12 heads of particular branches of the government. As there is no executive branch, the politics of the Small Council are cut-throat and frenzied, with councilors jockeying for power.
The Free Republic is a new nation, recently formed from rebellion against a monarchy that previously ruled the people of Acier. It is a nation with a unified culture, with a focus on individualism and personal achievement, and a history of industrial progress and a proud military tradition. The Free Republic is very overtly expansionist, demanding land and resources to fuel Progress, and to spread the freedoms within the nation to the rest of the world. The nation has a very small amount of Elan available to it, and has set its sights on other nation to supplement this natural weakness.
Liberty is the chief virtue of government in Acier. The people are beholden to no one but the government, and the State takes a very lax role in internal policies. There are almost no restrictions on industry, freedom of speech is guaranteed, voting is open to every citizen, and there is legal gender equality [the common person still believes in the dogma of women being subordinate to men, however] along with property rights and freedom of religion. The one area in which the freedom of the people is compromised is in the military: there is a three-year mandatory military service for every able-bodied man, with certain aspects of the government pushing to extend this requirement to women.
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Economy</span></div>
The Free Republic is as capitalist as a nation can be. There are almost no restrictions on industrialists, many of whom have created vast manufacturing empires within the small borders of Acier. Taxes are very light, with the government relying on the private sector to service its people with services such as roads, utilities and healthcare. Trade is unrestricted, with merchants of all stripes visible in the bustling markets of the nation. Technological advancement is prized by the Republic, and in the military especially the Republic is one of the technological frontrunners. The drawback of such things is that there is massive income disparity, with the poorest citizens living in abject poverty in the dirty shanty towns outside the major cities, and the wealthy industrialists living in opulent decadence.

Opiates have begun to be mass produced by a few of the more avant-garde captains of industry, and the Grand Council is divided as to whether or not it should be banned. It would be the first non-military good to be banned by the government, and the balance of power changes daily, with most favouring its production.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Leaders:</span></div> 
The Small Council holds a great deal of power, having massive pull in the Grand Council as well as having the traditional powers of an executive branch. The Councilors are:

High Justice Francois Piat: Head Justice and representative of the Judiciary on the Small Council, Abel is a hard-line liberal, fighting tooth and nail against the last few jobs of the government, to in his mind “free the people from the Tyranny of State”

High Consul Louis Montefleur: In charge of foreign policy, he is an ardent expansionist. He dreams of massive tracts of land and resources to fuel Acier to international glory.

Field Marshal Petra Lysette: The only female member of the council, in addition to being the youngest, she is in command of the nation’s land armies and is a firebrand nationalist. A talented orator, she holds a position as a hero of the people, and the accompanying massive popularity. She has so far stood apart from the expansionism issue, and is expected to be the swing vote.

Fleet Admiral Claude Bernadette: A new role on the council, he has become unpopular among his fellow councilors for his constant demand for a larger navy, which he sees as a severe deficiency in the nation’s national defense.

Lord Chancellor Arthur Gabler: A second-generation immigrant, he is in charge of the spending and collecting of the relatively small tax income of the nation. He is a close ally of Marshal Lysette, and supports the military more than other councilors would deem responsible

High Chamberlain Jean LaGarre: Speaker of the house and in charge of politics and bureaucracy, he is a traditional liberal deep in High Justice Piat’s camp, and strongly against the expansionist faction

Minister of Technology Gunther Farber: A new role, put in place just last election, he is in command of the national scientists, and plays the middle ground between the two major Councilar factions. His technological goals are focused on working around the severe lack of Elan in the nation, in both the private and military spheres.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span></div>
Important Locations:
Lutte: The Capital city of the Republic and the largest city by a fair margin, Lutte is a city clouded with the smoke of industry. It is the manufacturing centre of the nation, with factories sitting side by side with governmental building and palatial mansions, while in the slums the poorest of society fight tooth and nail for food, shelter and safety. 

Foirture: The major port of the nation and the second-largest city, Foiture is dominated by it massive market district, where items of every shape and size are traded for every coin under the sun. It has less industrial potential than Lutte, but is home to the small but quickly-expanding Grand Fleet, and sailors on shore leave are common sights.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview</span></div>
The people of Acier value family and their rights – freedom is enjoyed by all classes of society, and the people make the most of it. The Press is a very popular institution, with cheap pamphlets distributed to all walks of life detailing everything from foreign policy decisions to fictional adventures of heroism and romance. There is no state religion, but the vast majority of people are [to be addressed later: probably some shitty Christian expy]. Family is important to the people of Acier, and large family gatherings are very common on feast days or national holidays. Families rely on each other, and most families are governed informally by the patriarch, though that is not without numerous exceptions. Most of the people are highly patriotic, the nation being very new. Many desire expansion and greater glory for their nation.  Military service is very respected, and war heroes are rated on the same lines of fame as sporting legends and famous musicians or writers. Sports are also very common, especially among the rich, and inter-collegiate leagues are the largest venues for such competitions. Every citizen is required to own a weapon, and with the police being privately run under government oversight the average citizen defends this right before many others.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span></div>
The Army is the focus of the Republic, and it is where most of the money and manpower goes. Infantry doctrine has faced massive upheaval in the last few years, with jacketed rounds and smokeless powder making massed infantry combat pointless and horribly bloody. Infantry doctrine now focuses on small units of a few dozen of men working independently, a Koch machinegun attached to every squad. The average infantryman is equipped with a bolt-action rifle. The Dupont rifle replaced the earlier lever-action variants in the interest of prone-firing and extra reliability. Grenades are standard issue in every squad, and the general plan of attack against civilized nations features infantry charges prefaced by grenades and artillery strikes, covered by pre-set machinegun and mortar emplacements. Bayonets have become largely useless, especially on the attack, with grenadiers clearing fortified positions. The Army take the lessons of modern military thinkers very seriously, focusing on very mobile warfare around fortified positions, aiming to outmaneuver on the attack and interdict on the defense. Mounted infantry regiments are a favorite of Republican generals, and are used extensively in aggressive operations
The officer corps is entirely professional soldiers, and so has a great deal of experience, fueling the army to push the envelope of combat doctrine, but the nature of a draft army is that many untested units will have a lack of real military knowledge.
The Artillery Corps is attached to the Army and is crucial to its success. Field artillery is a staple of Acian attacking and defensive strategy, air-burst shrapnel shells just now coming into use. The Artillery Corps’ newest responsibility is Air Defense, and their new anti-aircraft guns are designed to fix the severe lack of air power in the Republican military.

The Republic’s navy is no less professional, but significantly smaller. Despite the urging of the Fleet Admiral, the navy’s main jobs are protecting shipping from piracy and external threats, and safeguarding transport fleets for the Army. They have few battleships, several cruisers and a large number of destroyers, which rely on massed torpedo attacks to combat the floating Elan Fortresses of the other civilized nations.

The Republic’s Air Force is tiny, and there is no getting around it. They have two Elan-powered Flying Battleships, mostly for prestige. They are not intended for use against other civilized nations, but against southern Savages who do not possess anti-aircraft guns. The battleships are specifically designed to be able to be transported by sea, to reach the southern continent where their work can begin.

Acier was a paranoid state before the rebellion, and the old forts that lined the border with Lumenor and Kolkavia have been kept up to date with deep concrete bunkers and new pieces of artillery. Ironically, the only border that is not well defended is that with Masovia, with which the nation has the worst current relations. Shore defenses are also prevalent, and in lieu of advancing naval power projection the Artiller Corps has updated many of these shore batteries to be formidable, especially on port towns through which trade flows.

Purchase of commissions has been outlawed once the revolution was over - soldiers either enlist as privates or enter the officer corps as 2nd Lieutenants.

<span class=""bb-i"">Members of the Noritburo shortly after session.</span></div>
The Autonomous Union of Northern States proclaims itself as a 'Revolutionary Worker's Republic' based on the doctrine of Communalism. The Central Committee and the Noritburo are the highest offices of power within the Union and hold absolute power over the economy and military. 

The Union also follows the doctrines of 'Tao Thought' which was founded by famous, and deceased, Southern Revolutionary 'Tao-Lin-Zong'. Tao Thought describes both the revolutionary state and the revolutionary army being one in the same on all accounts, meaning that with each shot fired at the enemy, the state of the revolution grows stronger. This, of course, means that a large portion of both the Central Committee and the Noritburo being made of military figures and former 'red-guards', which has led to anti-communalists decrying the state as 'A Military Dictatorship'. To counter-act these claims, the formation of 12 'People's States' were founded across the Union, each state having a People's Committee of it's own with one or two members being within the Noritburo. The issue remains, however, that the People's Committees lack almost any power in changing laws or regulations within their own states, making them nearly void to the power of the Central Committee.

In matters of Law, the Union formed The Revolutionary People's Red Guard, or simply the Red Guard, shortly after it's foundation to ensure that reactionaries and all others who supported a reformation of the Northern monarchy would be dispatched or sent to justice within the People's Committees. It is merely rumor by counter-revolutionaries that these trials in the Committee are 'show-trials' and that more often than not enemies of the state are executed or sent to 'Northern Prison Camps'. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Economy</div>
The North-Eastern lands have been plagued with arctic temperatures and blizzard, the more spiritual say that there is even a snow deity that rules the land and brings down his wrath upon it. Regardless of these claims, the North is far from an economically stable region, with famine being a constant fear in the hearts of all. This has led to the previous North-Eastern Kings taking a strong laissez-faire approach to economics and especially trade. For ages western and southern fat-cats became rich by selling the North food in return for their precious and valuable wood supply. Labourers and Millers would spend all their lives working for men who never knew their names and lived far south or far west in a cozy manor while the Northerners worked through the cold to feed their families.

The Revolutionary Party of the North saw an end to all of it. No longer would a fisher fish for anyone in the South, or a Miller chop wood for anyone but his comrades. In a swift move shortly after taking power, the Northern land-owners and fat-cats were taken into custody, their 'southern-inspired' manors razed and given back to the small farmers, fishers, and millers. Collective Farms and Fisheries became mandatory and all industries in the North were swiftly nationalized and centralized into the Revolutionary Union of the North, a state created union made specifically for the northern labourer.

Of course, with these swift actions in ending the cursed 'invisible hand', a great amount of luxury goods were lost and many traders were forced from their ports with all of their goods quickly taken by the state. Investors in Northern 'modernization' lost hundreds upon thousands of coin in the brutal actions of the new revolutionary nation... But life went on nonetheless. The North-East was no longer safe for trade, and protectionism became the norm. The vast arctic fisheries known as 'The Iron Stream' became a solitary entity for the revolutionary state, and now supplies much of the 'metropolitan' Northern cities with fish for the people. The southern mills, famous for their cold and hardened northern wood, now create only for the people.

Koscol: In the metropolitan South-East lies directly on a strait known as 'The Northern Steps'. A series of small islands that look like stepping stones that could connect the western half of the state with the eastern half. Koscol is the political capitol of The AUNS and serves as home to the Revolutionary Party, the Central Committee, and of course Premier Starling himself. The City's greatest defense against foreign invaders remains to be the fact that, besides for the eastern front, it is entirely surrounded by the eastern inner-sea.

Vorstan: Perched on the tip of the South-Eastern Peninsula, Vortan is the economic capitol of The AUNS. It's southern shore-line and it's small islands hold countless small fisheries which make the region known as 'Fisherman's Bay' by many. The northern Vorstani area holds vast Northern Mills that produce twelve percent of the national wood used in building fishing boats, weapons, and common furnishes.

Torlargrad: On the great North-Western river known as 'The Skold', Torlargrad is the pride of the Union, being named after famed revolutionary Artold Torlar, it formerly was simply known as 'Czaringrad' for it's tradition of being the throne of the monarchy. Now the city has become a symbol of the success of industrial Communalism and Miltarism. Due to the almost fortress like nature of the city and it's strong military presence, it has been nicknamed 'Starling's Fortress'. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Technology Overview</div>
While the South can preach of the greatness of their technology, the North men rely on their sheer strength and will. While The AUNS is far from a uncivilized state, it does not rely on luxuries held by the capitalist southerners and westerners. The average Northern family holds a very common and simple lifestyle, filled with wooden and steel work-tools and manually operated labour. However, due to the difficult nature of ice-fishing, the creation of steam-drills is a national beauty of Communalist technological growth.

<span class=""bb-i"">Liberation Army forces in War-Games in the Torlargrad region.</span></div>

The Liberation Army of The AUNS relies entirely on the doctrine of People's War as described by Southern revolutionary Tao-Lin-Zong. Instead of using the steel war-machines that became common-place with the development of steam technology, the Liberation Army relies on the vast northern population to create a mighty army of peasants and farmers. A revolutionary state requires a revolutionary people's army, and the NLA is that army. In terms of weaponry, the NLA is known for it's mass-built 'Rogin M51' bolt action rifle as the main weapon of the armed forces, with officers receiving a 'Sagant 85' revolver and a steel officer's saber for close-combat.

While the north frowns on the steam operated war-machines of the South, calling them 'cowards cover', these machines still find their place within the Liberation Army, especially within the 'Northern Bird Brigade'. The Bird Brigade is a prestigious branch of the Northern Liberation Army and serves as an early form of an aerial combat force. Hulking warships based largely on models of their water-based counterparts travel the Northern skies in War-games on a regular basis. One can only imagine the feeling of lying in ones trench, only to see the great sky-bombards of the Union coming down upon their reactionary foes.

Government: Constitutional Monarchy in theory, in practice the military hold majority of political sway and authority in the Empire.
Economy: Mixed Economy, the government exists to support and set economic policy just as it does diplomatic and military policy, and businesses are expected to coordinate long-term plans with the government. While largely hands-off during times of peace, provisions and bureaus are in place for large-scale war mobilization as needed.

Major Imports: Technology, advanced steam engines, inventions, expert specialists, 
Major Exports: Luxuries, bicycles, steel, high-grade anthracite coal, iron

Leader(s): 
Empress Presilla Dalones Corvo-Valkyron, nominal leader of the Empire but still a young teenager and not of age to rule due to the early death of her parents, but beloved by most of the country as a progressive leader regardless. Her neophilic mindset makes her very aware of the changing tides of technology and society, but still somewhat naive in political or military settings.
Supreme Commander Adrian Weiben, supreme commander of the Valkyrian Empire military and de facto leader of the country. Ruthless in action and thought, but extremely loyal to the Empire and Empress.
Tethys Zevos, Chief of Administration. The master of coin, policy, and bureaucracy, meaning he’s perpetually overworked and angry at everything. But for all his grousing he is also very good at what he does. Coups may happen, political tides may shake, technology can bring change, but Tethys will keep the Empire chugging along no matter what.
Important People: 
“The Tycoons” The five most powerful industrialists and businessmen in the Empire who built its foundations of economic and industrial power.

Its army is large and prestigious, with every man required to serve five years in the military starting no later than the age of 20. Women may volunteer, unless they have families to maintain. Immigrants, non-citizens, and foreign vassals may earn citizenship through meritorious military service. Loyalty to the nation and crown is a core element to life within the Empire, and there is a undercurrent of condempt for nations that have not accepted the ways of the Empire. But all will become one with the Valkyries one day...

For all its high militarism and nationalism though, the Empire also practices rather hedonistic social customs. Public baths, legal same-sex or polyamorous relationships, public arena games, conspicuous production and consumption of luxuries from across the continent, and a very active night-life that often crosses over into day-life. So long as it does not compromise one's abilities to produce, serve, or obey, the Empire is rather loose on what people do in their spare time. This has led to a surprising degree of tolerance of other religions, social customs, and fashions for a imperialistic state.

In short, Valkyries Work Hard, Fight Hard, then Play Very Hard.

The central religion of the Valkyrian Empire is Yiggidism, the worship of the holy Valkyries as goddesses that saved the world from a great evil from the underworld, taking the bravest warrior souls with them to the celestial realms and giving the gifts of civilization to the peoples that would become the Empire. Primarily a martial religion, demanding that one could only join the honored ancestors in heaven through meritorious service in battle and loyal service to the crown supposedly descended from Valkyries themselves. Large cathedrals and religious monuments have been built to honor the Valkyrian legacy, although the majority of the religious fervor when it arises goes into military campaigns.</div></div>

The Valkyrian Empire isn’t on the cutting edge of technology for the times, being slower to adopt Elan, airships, and latest-iteration steam engines due to its size and lags in spreading new technology across the whole empire. But for what last-generation technology they have, they produce and use in bulk to try and compensate for their disadvantages. For what they can’t, they try and import foreign designs and inventors.

Railroads have been the focus of two kings and a succession of military administrators, resulting in lines upon lines of heavy-gauge railroads spanning the Empire’s major cities and connecting its industries. Enabling fast transit of cargo and troops when and where needed. Usage as a passenger system is a more recent addition, and something they are still working on.

While not a major innovator in technology or steam engines, the Empire is remarkably advanced in policymaking, administration, and communications technology, due to the need to administer a sizable empire prompting bureaucrats to capitalize upon any means possible to ease the colossal task. The Empire was one of the first to adopt telegraph at large to supplement its chains of courier riders and still offers sizable rewards for any inventor of any country to further improve distance communication technology. Its bureaucracy, while extremely sizable, is more efficient than can be expected for such a large domain and able to keep up with changing scenarios and situations.

In a curious quirk of technological development, bicycles are popular in the empire due to the Royal Family’s current preference for bicycles over horse-riding. Which in turn resulted in a sudden spree of bicycle advancement, from well-sprung cycles for nobility to peddle in comfort, to six-person chain-gang cycles for transit of labor crews, and more recently folding bicycles for mobile infantry. Bicycles are a major export of the Empire despite its last-gen industries.</div></div>



Military Overview:

The Valkyrian Military strives to stay abreast of the times, but the sheer size of the empire and its conscript-heavy armies make equipping the entire army with top-line weaponry a financial and logistical impossibility. Thus it is forced to manage its priorities of funding and support carefully.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Cavalry Corps"" type=""button"">Cavalry Corps [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The Cavalry Corps are the vanguard force of the Army. Well-equipped, well-trained, and led by aggressive and highly able leaders. Generations of breeding has yielded strong warhorses and meritorious leaders. But whether they can stand up to the changing mechanizing battlefields of the future is beginning to come into question even among conservative generals, and they are gradually being moved to a flanking role as the infantry grow in primacy.

The average cavalry soldier is equipped with either a cavalry saber (light cavalry) or halberd spear (heavy cavalry), alongside a sidearm revolver or pistol and a lever-action carbine.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Infantry Corps"" type=""button"">Infantry Corps [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The Infantry Corps compose the bulk of the Valkyrian Army. More than three-fourths conscripts, they are seen as second-line troops more for garrisons and line-of-communications work than frontline fighting. With recent technological advances and the implementation of the income tax, efforts are underway to modernize the Infantry with automatic weapons, mortars, newfangled rockets, and better training for standing force elements. But so far efforts are slow and piecemeal due to the large size of the infantry. 

Various divisions of the growing infantry Corps include:

1st Mobile Infantry Division:
A radical new concept emerging from the central territories of increasing an infantryman's speed, marching endurance, and load capacity through the usage of specially made folding military bicycles, the 1st Mobile Infantry were first conceived as a parade division for the amusement of the neophilic Empress and to show off the Empire's own technological advances. But after initial wargames, the 1st Mobile Infantry took a far more serious turn when their improved mobility proved to be an operational advantage. While plans for expansion have been stalled due to production bottlenecks in military-grade penumatics, there is serious talk of expanding the mobile infantry corps to give almost-cavalry level mobility to infantry while retaining their operational endurance.

Trencher Infantry Corps:
A full third of the Empire's infantry forces are made of trenchers, trained in siege, trench, and shock warfare. While its brutal work for the men of the Trencher divisions who willingly charge into the guns of the enemy, its equally brutal to be on the receiving end of these hardened trench fighters. Alongside their Armory Rifles and trenching spades, the Trenchers are getting new tricks like man-portable mortars, clockwork gatling guns, barbed wire, and rifle grenades to become even more deadly. Their weaknesses are in open-field battle and mobile fighting, with Trenchers dependent on digging fixed positions to fight from and mount their weaponry.</div></div>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Navy"" type=""button"">Navy [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">The Navy has always had a second-string role in the Valkyrian military, serving to support the Army rather than operate as a force unto itself. Thus they have naval infantry rather than marines, and ships are assigned on an as-needed basis to army groups during campaigns. With the discovery of the New World, the Navy is receiving new funding and expansion, but are still facing manpower shortages for their explosive growth.

The Valkyrian Empire favors building large numbers of cruisers and destroyers over big-gun battleships, and its current expansion plans to protect the troopships to the New World reflect this with a wide range of specialized and generalized cruiser classes, backed by squadrons of mass-produced destroyers. While a few ""pocket battleships"" have been built, they are built as coastal bombardment platforms than ship-to-ship weapons to crack open fortresses and beach defenses.</div></div>

Like the Navy, they are considered an extension of the Army and subordinated under Army command. With limited Elan supplies the Empire can't field large sky battleships even if it had the inclination to do so. Instead local supplies of Elan, hydrogen, and helium are allocated to the production of medium-sized airships designs for reconnaissance and ground fire support. As the risk of enemy airships grows, some are being refitted or built purpose-made for air-to-air combat with large numbers of machineguns and ""pom-pom"" clip-fed light cannons.

Recently, proposals are being made for the deployment of infantry from airships via fast-roping and parachute. Invoking imagery of the Valkyries descending from above, and the interest of the Empress in the fast-moving Skytiger airship designs, the ""Paratrooper"" concept is beginning to take sway in the Empire. Whether it will stand the test of time and war remains to be seen for the two paratrooper regiments raised have yet to see battle.</div></div></div>"

The Chee Nation

<span class=""bb-b"">Flag:</span>
<img src=""https://flag-designer.appspot.com/gwtflags/SvgFileService?d=0&amp;c1=5&amp;c2=5&amp;c3=5&amp;o=0&amp;c4=4&amp;s=3&amp;c5=6""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Brief:</span>The Chee Nation does not have a set leader of its territories, but rather, is run on a patchwork of local chieftains.

<span class=""bb-b"">Long:</span> The Chee Nation is a military and defensive pact formed between 36 tribes inhabiting the barren region known locally as Odase (Oh-das-y). As a result, it in theory has 36 leaders, all of whom hold sway over their own individual tribal territories. 

However, recent conflict with North Adara has forced the tribes of Odase to form a coalition, and with it, an Elder Council. The Elder Council is more or a less a political body formed by the 36 chieftains, and functions democratically. To call it efficient would be a travesty to the word, as it is only convened annually, and deals only with matters deemed pressing at the time. 

This leaves big room for crises to develop, especially regarding incursions from the North. If a chieftain wishes to rally his neighbours against foreign aggression, he can end up waiting 12 months for the chance to ask, by which time his lands have been taken and he’s facing the executioner’s block.

Naturally, this means the tribes have an unmoderated amount of freedom. So, other than adhering to a few Elder Council policies and declarations every twelve months, they’re free to act as they please. Tribes will unify against aggressors, or sometimes, take the opportunity to remove a rival from their ranks by siding with aforementioned aggressors. They will trade with who they want, and there’s little to be done if a tribe wishes to sell its lands to a northern mining company.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span>

 The Chee Peoples are barterers; they have no use for coinage. Typically, a man creates or procures an item of value, and trades it for life’s necessities. These goods range from herbal medicines, furs, foods, metal craft, wood work and basic raw materials, to foreign devices and technology. 

With recent North aggression, firearms and more modern equipment has been outlawed in 26 of the clans. The remaining ten however, all on the borderlands, allow any goods to pass between their borders. This has resulted in a black market of forbidden merchandise, and a slow decline into modernisation.

The real value of the Chee Peolples however, unbeknown to them, is the vast Elan reserves many of their tribal dwellings sit upon. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Important People:</span> 

Chieftain Marak Tor – Chieftain of the Tor Tribe

Marak is a great warrior of middle years, and respected by many of the Elder Council. He advocates War against the North, and holds great sway over the northern tribes. 

Chieftain Hanan Sechs – Chieftain of the Sechs Tribe

Hanan Sechs is like Marak, a great warrior of much renown, but is more cautious. He wishes careful modernisation, that his people may benefit from the North, but not in a way that would jeopardise their freedom. 

Chieftain Ferod Kalan – Chieftain of the Kalan Tribe

Ferod sees a war with the North as the End Times. He is a religious type, praying constantly to the Sun for deliverance. He seeks peace between peoples more than anything, but shuns technology completely, describing it as evil. 

Chieftainess Alaya Fer – Chieftainess of the Fer Tribe.

Alaya is the only female leader of the 36 tribes, and this is because she has much love for murder. Were the North not on the Chee Nation’s doorstep, then she’d be on everyone else’s. Her braves outnumber those of all other tribes, and their fighting skill is beyond repute. She stands with Marak, and believes the South could win a war, if it chose to unify.

<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations:</span>


 The Chee have no permanent settlements, and are nomadic in nature.  However, there are the Sun Steps, which is a small mountain range appearing naturally as a staircase. It is said that he, or she, who climbs them becomes one with the Sun Spirit. It is here that the tribes gather, during the annual Elder Council.


<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>

The Chee are a multitude of cultures and values, with no dominant form of either. Depending on your location, laws and customs change rapidly.

Some of the Chee tribes are warlike, putting the ideals of the warrior before all else; others are peaceful, keeping to themselves and only straying from their paths in times of great distress. 

In some tribes, women are baby factories, and treated as such. In others, they are almost equal with men, and can pursue their own interests. 

Regardless of their varying customs and beliefs, all are united in Sun Worship. The Sun, called various names, but usually ‘Zu’, is praised across the board. All tribes believe the Sun to be a living spirit, responsible for the creation of all things, and their chief benefactor.

The Chee pay tribute to the Sun in various ways. Child sacrifice is not uncommon, but outlawed in some of the more progressive tribes. Other tributes take the form of oxen, crops and mass prayer. Temples to Zu are established throughout the Chee nation, and are gathering points for roaming tribes. 

Attitudes towards the North vary also. Some of the Chee have embraced the North’s technology, and guns are beginning to frequent among their weaponry. Steam engines are slowly replacing oxen, and some permanent settlements are starting to take shape. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span> 

10 of the Chee tribes have access to, and use, third-rate Northern technology, and are open to further trade. These tribes have put their few rifles and steam engines to great use, but in the grand scheme of things, their activities are very much a minority.

Generally speaking, the Chee people are almost prehistoric. The horse is the greatest thing they could call a vehicle, and weaponry is still predominantly made from flint – although bronze and iron are beginning to make an emergence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>

The Chee People are skilled hunters and excellent survivors in a barren wasteland that knows no mercy. However, they are reluctant warriors. 

If at war, the Chee Nation can rally a million braves to its cause – this accounts for every able bodied man in the population. Owing to their nomadic nature, this mobilisation is a quick process, and sustainable indefinitely if the women are put to work. This is known as a War Path, but such a unity is rare, and now almost impossible to achieve. Still, one should be careful of giving the Chee the excuse they need to put their warriors under a single flag.

Typically, Chee braves are horse-mounted troops, relying on speed and manoeuvrability to harass and ambush opponents. The bow is their primary weapon, however axes and short swords form their melee backups. 

A force of Chee usually assault their opponents with volleys of arrows, before retiring when they have no more ammunition… only to return the following day re-stocked.

Zar Dratha: Capital city, hugely populated trade center near the coast, situated on the Ovos River. Zar Dratha has long outgrown its crumbling walls, with the upper castes living in the Old City, a dense conglomeration of ancient pagodas and towers dominated by the Dictator's Fortress, while the Outworks are a sprawl of clay and plaster dwellings stretching out from the Ovos river in all directions, eventually petering out into rice paddies and fungus beds. Non-Drathans are confined to the city's famous Foreign Quarter, an overcrowded center of the world-wide black market, filled with ex-patriots, exiles and lowlifes from every corner of the Old World.

Zar Pellos

Zar Aryon

Zar Uln: major port city located on Half Moon Bay, controlled by the powerful Sygo Clan. Zar Uln is the second most populated and the most 'modernized' city in the Consanguinity, with a large foreign presence and Barrow &amp; White factories springing up among its pagodas and clay-brick slums. Outside the metropolis, mining and drilling operations are being set up by Barrow &amp; White personal amid the terrace farms and wayside shrines of the countryside.

New Gapos: Stinking, malarial enclave of old world merchants on an island just beyond where the Ovos Delta empties into the sea. It is the major refueling station for steam powered ships the region. The New Gapos coal mines, also on the island, are infamous for their horrendous conditions. The Mayor of New Gapos technically answers to the Consanguinity, but the town is mostly a lawless, seedy mishmash of Old World and Drathan exiles.

Palace of the Moon and Stars

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>

The Consanguinity is composed primarily of Drathans, a sub-species of humanity physiologically altered by its prolonged exposure to the large liquefied elan deposits just beneath the surface of their ancestral lands. Elan, called 'Ichor' by the Drathans, is omnipresent in their society- used in medicine, liquors, and to power various ingenious mechanical devices. The local water supply is heavily contaminated with elan residue, and most non-Drathans find the taste alarming, though they can drink it without harm.

Drathans, in contrast to other humans, have dusky, bluish skin of a variety of hues and generally have dark eyes and hair. The products of an ancient culture, they tend to be conservative and highly xenophobic. 

Drathan religion is a messy combination of folk ancestral worship, astrological veneration of the moon and stars as deities, and sophisticated philosophy and metaphysics translated in various ways into religious parlance. Drathan worship, therefore, is not particularly unified nor consistent, especially given the steep class divides within their society: local shrines to ancestral figures and historical heroes and sages do the country side, while in larger towns and cities elaborate temple-based liturgies to the celestial deities take place for the moneyed castes. At universities, a sophisticated and ancient tradition of speculation is encouraged on the nature of causality, rationality, and the divine. 

Drathan society is highly stratified, with the vast majority of the population living as serfs cultivating crop paddies, fungus farms, and livestock. The warrior-aristocracy generally occupy castles and fortified estates on their land holdings. Slavery is openly practiced in some clan holdings, especially those in the North where battles with the Chee result in plenty of captives.

The Consanguinity's territories range from arid to tropical, with dense jungles and mangroves along the coast, and local cultures and practices vary across the extensive dominions governed by the Foremost Dictator.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span> 

While very few of the richest and most powerful members of the Consanguinity possess some Old World technology, the Dratha as a whole are technologically backwards. While they possess sophisticated [medieval and renaissance era] machinery, building techniques and agricultural methods, they almost totally lack the mass-productive steam-technology that characterizes the Old World. For the most part the conservative Dratha view such innovations with suspicion and hostility. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>

The Consanguinity can call a very large number of soldiers to arms. Unfortunately, those arms mostly consist of spears, swords, crossbows, flintlocks and outdated rifles and cannon imported from the Old World. Centuries of internecine clan warfare and battles with the Chee have made the Drathans into formidable warriors, and the Foremost Dictator commands a sizable professional fighting force permanently under arms. 

The Foremost Dictator is scrambling to import modern weapons and train his men in their use before the Old World powers descend on his elan-rich nation, but the lack of an industrial base and native hostility to dishonorable innovations makes even most modest modernization efforts difficult.

The Dratha have a fairly large navy of cannon-armed junks and galleons, almost totally useless against modern navies.</div></div></div>"

The Head and shoulders of a Golden Dragon on a red backdrop with twin dragon-like silver serpents coiling around it.  
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span>
The Kingdom of the Red Dragon is not actually a Kingdom, not since the fall of the empire with the same name. The Government is in fact a Republic with the elected leader being elected from the male siblings of the previous ruler. The Red Council is made of representatives that largely hail from the powerful merchant families and guilds. While the Red Council is officially elected by the people, all that means is that those with the biggest purses get in and those that don't make space for themselves. The Red Council holds all the power of the Kingdom but the Dracos Inquisitos, the 'ruler', is the only one allowed to declare war and can force a three month trade embargo on any family or nation without having to consult the Red Council, after the time frame he must have their approval to continue it. The Council can, however, replace the Dracos Inquisitos with one of his male siblings if they have a 95% majority in the favor of a single sibling, thus keeping the moderate balance of power and allowing them to both keep the other in check.
Structure:
Top: Dracos Inquisitos
Next: Red Tradracos (Minister of trade), Red Diplomacist (Minister of Foreign affairs effectively) and Red Guild-master (Minister of Guilds)
Below: All the other 60 members of the Council split unevenly between the three ministries

To counter the purely mercantile Power of the Red Council there is also the Dracos Imperium, generally lead by a relative of the Inquisitos purely due to the Dracos Imperials wanting to keep in favor with the ruling family so they may remain unhindered in their work. The Imperium is the religious arm of the nation and holds the power of the commoner levels of society even if most of its members have help their positions over generations as it is a very tradition orientated form. The Imperium has two tasks, that of spreading the faith of the kingdom and that of moderation over the Religion and its restrictions, the Imperium being able to ban or restrict such things as forms of technology and set the Laws of the Religion, which even the Red Council dare not go against, and vote for which tribes or clans, etc. are suitable for the Kingdom to make dealings with in the eyes of the 'Red Dragon' their diety with the Dracos Imperlius (leader of the Imperium) holding the power to stop any vote in the Imperium.
<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span>
The Kingdom of the Red Dragon is effectively a merchant republic and so the vast bulk of its economy comes from trade with the north Andarans as they are the only 'northern' power that has effectively set up shop on the southern continent. This allows them to hold a monopoly over trade between the two continents after having gained the trust of most of the local tribes, nations and other such powers.

<span class=""bb-u"">The City of Dracos</span>, A city entirely floating in the bay, the Capital hosts floating docks stretching as far as the eye can see getting luxuries and necessities from, and sending luxuries to, the northern continent. The City of Dracos holds the Red Council and its center is dominated by the 'District of Trade', effective an excuse to keep all the rich away from the poor and allow those who hold the power a way of avoiding those they 'serve' the center of this district stands the Red Palace, where the Ruling Family (currently Vacialtali) reside and the Red council meets.
<span class=""bb-u"">The Gate to the South</span>, The 'Gateway' to the city but almost a city in its own right. In an attempt to keep the populance of the Dracos 'pure' this fortified menace keep those who don't appear to be 'pure' (not of the North) out of the city but, to keep relations with the numerous tribes around the Kingdom, not to actually restrict those who have good reason to be there (they get an armed 'guard' to keep them 'safe'). Because of its strategic importance as the gateway to the Capital it is the main barracks for the Kingdoms small military.
<span class=""bb-u"">The Temple of Dracos</span>, situated on the edge of a steep cliff overlooking the bay this temple has been restored from a local ruined temple and is the home of the Dracos Imperium. Weapons are strictly not allowed and so the temple is protected by a significant portion of the army, but even they are restricted from entering the temple if they have a weapon equiped. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>
The Kingdom holds two 'feast-avals' a year, one is held on the Inquisitos' birthday with the other being held on 'Dark Dragon Night' which coincides with the winter solstice. On these events the commoners celebrate with national holidays, often spending time with their families and the upper classes are all invited to attend a Feast in the palace where some of the most exotic foods known to man are consumed.  There are also a whole host of religious occasions throughout the year, each and every one providing a national day of rest to all who feel they can afford to take it and a bit of upped pay for those who can't. The other main festival of the Kingdom is held biannually and is the Floating of the Dragons, its foundation is in the praise and worship of their god the 'Red Dragon' but its main use is to show of the navy to the nearby tribes to act as a deterrent to any hostilities from them, all the tribal leaders are invited to the palace to watch from its upper floors while the majority of the festivities are held outside the city with large expanses of agricultural land being turned into a large party where money is spent, wares are traded and many drunks are fined, providing more wealth to the Kingdoms overflowing coffers. The main event of the 'Floating of the Dragons' is the massive show of their navy with a glorified fishing boat being set alight and guided by other ships to make sure it sets nothing on fire and sinks in the ocean.
<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span>
The Kingdom has all of the finest technology that money can buy but develop little to none of it themselves, purchasing any technology from the old world they feel can make their lives easier, safer or more profitable. The Kingdom relies almost completely on trade, with food being supplied by the more trusting tribes and large stores of grain being imported from the north to keep the city stockpiled in the case of a war, be it with the north or the south. Outside of the city the technology, other then that of the army, is fairly basic with very little setting the Kingdoms own farmers apart from that of the tribes surrounding it.
<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>
The Kingdoms army is very well equipped but hosts an outdated organisational system, with each Guild hosting its own troops with the Dracos Inquisitos fielding one man for every one the guilds field so as to keep a Guild from taking over by force. 
Their navy is also well equipped but, with the distances concerned the ships hulls are also pretty outdated, with newer guns and things being 'upgraded' from the ones existing since very few northern countries are willing to sell their newest ship designs, even to the highest bidder, therefor they must make do with slightly older warships (even if there trade-ships are the finest money can buy). 
Their airborne forces consist of a small number of weakly hulled elan powered airships with powerful guns that spend most of their life floating on water rather then air as the distances and costs involved in the elan supplies are currently not considered worth it by the Red Council and the Imperial Admiral, the Imperial Admiral being the sole chosen by the Inquisitos to lead his Navy and, more recently, airborne forces, while allowing the Inquisitos to command his own land forces.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">The Ossman Empire</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government</span>
Power in the empire is split between the Achmod, a family of generals who hold all of the military power, and the emperor, who acts as a religious and political leader. Vassals hold inherited lands and provide military service and homage to the Achmod, much like feudal Europe. The Ossmanese government further divides feudal power between the Achmod and the eleven provincial domains throughout the country, who enjoy a high degree of sovereignty and are allowed an independent administration of their own people without the emperor's interference in exchange as well for loyalty to the Achmod, who're solely responsible for foreign relations and national security. Both the Achmod and other nobility, such as those in charge of each province, each have their own bureaucracies, policies, and territories, along with independent taxation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy</span>
The majority of the Ossmanese population are nothing more than cattle breeders who sell their products to the numerous trading ports along the Ossmanese coast, where goods arrive from both the country's farthest stretches and the Old World. These lively coastlines have in response spawned many large and beautiful cities, each with their own markets, tanneries, and mills, and act as centers trade, agriculture, and artisanry for each province. The northernmost towns are renowned for their of wine, tobacco, and fruit cultivation while in the south, oriental rugs, weapons, silk, and honey see extensive production.

The slave trade in captured natives, immigrants, and prisoners of war is one of the major sources of income for the Daichin and similar nobility. In this process, government-appointed raiding parties go out and capture the many foreign peasants living in the country who're attracted to the freedom offered by the expansive empty steppes located in the center of the country. This has contributed to a hatred for the Achmod among the local populations that transcends political or military concerns.

<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Cermakye</span>, on the north Ossmanese coast, is the largest city in the empire, constituting the country's economic, cultural, and historical heart. With a population of nearly 875,000, the city forms the largest urban agglomeration in the New World. The city's vast size is coterminous with the Cermakye Province, of which the city is the administrative capital.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview</span>
Ossmanese culture is known for its extensive ethnic and cultural diversity. The black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives, though their cultural traditions survive most strongly. However, due to the rise of trade as a worthwhile market, the Ossmanese black culture has increasingly urbanised, thereby leading to a slight decline in traditional culture. 

In addition to the eleven or so official languages of the empire, speakers of Old World tongues are becoming increasingly common, especially among those who live near or on the coast. Likewise, members of middle class, who're predominantly Old World immigrants but whose ranks include growing numbers of native Ossmanese, have lifestyles similar in many respects to, as you might've guessed, that of people found in the Old World. Members of the middle class often study and work abroad for greater exposure to the markets of both continents.

In general, all racial and ethnic groups in the Ossman Empire have long-standing beliefs concerning gender roles, and most are based on the premise that women are less powerful, and thereby less important, than men. Most traditional social organisations are male centred and male dominated. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview</span> 
As a result of many years of isolationist reforms, technology in the empire is largely reliant on horses and considerably lacking behind that of the Old World. Whatever few guns, especially those produced in the last decade or so, are reserved entirely for either the Achmod or the emperor, and usually serve only to represent their owners' power. Anything else of such nature is reserved for the 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span>
The organization of the Ossmanese military retains many of the features that have sustained it for centuries. The core of the army is still reliant on the elite Savaschi infantry, whose composition and role remain nearly identical to that of their centuries-old prototypes. The Savaschi are trained as swordsmen, and some regiments have recently begun to act as defenders of naval units. Savaschi regiments are largely self-sufficient organisations, and even include their own medical and logistic services in order to better sustain themselves on their usually independent missions.  Alongside the Savaschi, the bulk of the Ossmanese armies are made up of Ahmet regiments – enlisted light infantry given basic training and equipment, and which form the mass manpower of the both the emperor's armies and the Achmod's bodyguards. 

Along with the regular Ossmanese forces, the emperor's military is also comprised of numerous irregular divisions from the empire's extremes, such as the steppes' nomads, who fight more or less as guerrilla forces. Ossmanese commanders allow such troops a high degree of autonomy, being well aware that such groups work best without interference from the considerably bulkier and consequently disorderly national forces.</div></div></div>"

Government: 
""The King should answer to none, so why does the Church expect me to answer to them?""
-King Kalle XII, ""Behovet av Regeln""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire is an Absolute Monarchy, where the oldest remaining child of the monarch is heir to the throne. The monarch holds all power, and disobeying an order from them is the exact same thing as treason. Whether or not that charge of treason results in death is up to the monarch, as they can override any decision made by anyone else in the empire. The philosophy behind this is that by making the will of the Empire the will of its monarch, corruption and internal competition would be eliminated, thus creating a stronger nation. Whether or not this was correct can be debated, but the outcome of the Great Nordsjön War is usually referenced as proof of the government's effectiveness.

The monarch is also in complete control of the Empire's religion, a tradition that started with the current King Kalle XII Storen. Vanjana had long been entrenched in their religious beliefs, with the monarch always answering to the church. Kalle, however, refused to be crowned by the church. Instead, he claimed to answer to none other than God himself. After the Great Nordsjön War, the church found it hard to disagree.

Kalle Storen himself is famous for his genius, both political and military, as he proved during the Great Nordsjön War. His is known to be cruel to anyone who opposes him, to the point that he has many executed for daring to question the simplest of decisions. He holds a firm belief that to oppose him is to oppose the Goddess. However, this also means that to follow his orders is to serve the Goddess, and thus he is known to greatly reward those that do not question him. Because of his belief that his will is that of the Goddess, he will almost never change his mind, and refuses to accept that anything he does could possibly be bad. However, there is more to him than his arrogance, and he has been known to change his mind if someone gives him an <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> good reason to. These people always earn his respect, as finding a reason good enough to make him change his mind is nigh impossible.

Economy: 
""If a nation is a steamship, then the economy is the boiler that gives it the power to move forward.""
-King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire has a strong tradition of capitalism, going back to long before its rise to power. The industrialization meshed well with their philosophy of using every centimeter for some kind of production. They adopted the new steam-powered machines with great enthusiasm, quickly building up factories and train routes in an effort to increase their production ability. Subsidies are provided for new factories, which now form the backbone of the Vanjanan Economy. With the aristocracy eliminated during the absolutist reforms of King Gustav II Storen, the bourgeoisie quickly became the leaders of the Vanjanan economy, establishing themselves as the owner of all the factories, railroads, and shipping companies.

The Holy Vanjanan Empire exports almost exclusively manufactured goods of all types, which they produce in great quantity. They do export raw materials, but even the most common export (Lumber) is an almost trivial percentage of total export profits. Elan is abundant in the northernmost part of Vanjana, and the captains of industry quickly developed it in order to export it to other nations. However, the King stepped in and took control of all Elan mines, securing the supply for the government and outlawing any unauthorized exports. In the present, Vanjana does not export any Elan, and the only possible way to import Vanjanan Elan is through negotiating a trade agreement with the King himself. Given the vast Elan reserves, such a trade agreement would surely be beneficial.

At that young age, he turned a defensive war into an offensive war and conquered two nations in the Great Nordsjön War. He is beloved by his followers, who believe him to be the voice of  the Goddess' will. His arrogance is famous as is his cruelty to his enemies. If you follow him, he will love you. If you oppose him, he will hate you. There are very few, if any, things and people he is neutral towards.

During the Great Nordsjön War, he took command of the Vanjanan armies and crushed the nations of Nordsted and Varmjord in a series of miraculous Vanjanan victories. This earned him the respect of the church and the love of his people, but he wasn't done yet. He cemented his rule in Nordsted through political maneuvering, making the people see him as a liberator instead of a conqueror. In Varmjord, he decimated any rebels that would dare rise up, keeping his rule safe simply out of fear that he was invincible.</div></div>

When the first Elan warships came into use, she was asked to become an Admiral in the newly minted Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps. She turned down this offer, saying ""Left and right is already hard enough, I don't need up and down to deal with too"".

She led the forces of the Holy Vanjanan Empire against those of Varmland in the Great Nordsjön War, decimating their superior Navy with what she referred to as ""A tenth wit and the rest the will of the Goddess"".

He is in the mid fifties, and once he built the first Vanjanan airship, he dedicated his life to the advancement of aerial technology. When the King demanded that all Elan mines be given to him, Mathias complied without protest, earning him the respect of the King. Since he had been the first Vanjanan to utilize Elan for flight, the King gave him control of the Elan mines, telling him to find a way to use the material in the military. Being a patriot, he agreed to these terms, becoming Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps.

Spending his time on creating formations and maneuvers from scratch for an entirely new battlefield, he became the father of Vanjanan air combat, with his strategies becoming the backbone of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps. During the Varmland Rebellion, the Holy Vanjanan Air Corps was tested for the first time at the battle of Hjemsted. The King's camp had come under attack from all sides by rebels, while the majority of his troops were out on patrol. A telegram was sent to Mathias, who immediately launched his fleet and rushed to help. Using the air-to-ground weapons on his airships, he surprised the rebels and decimated their forces, saving the King. However, he has still never engaged in real air-to-air combat, as the Holy Vanjanan Empire has remained surprisingly peaceful since the Great Nordsjön War.</div></div>

Due to her family's occupation, she get to see plenty of it, being brought in to in the mines every once in a while. She caught on quickly to the operation of steam engines, and often operated the mine's steam lift just to learn more about it. Over time, she became well-known for being good with steam engines, even being sent to other mining towns to fix problems with their own steam engines. When she was only 19, everyone in the Nordsted mines knew that if Helmi Lisbet couldn't get your machinery working, then you wouldn't be able to find anyone that could in all of Adara.

When the mines were taken by the King, none of the miners really noticed a difference. They were still mining Elan, and still had no say in where it went, so it didn't matter who gave them their money as long as they got it. However, Helmi's life was entirely changed by it. Mathias Holger, now Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps, visited a small mining town in order to track her down. She was upgrading their steam lift to meet newer standards when Mathias approached her. Having heard of her skill with steam engines, he asked her if she was willing to donate her expertise to the Airborne Corps. She eagerly accepted, overjoyed with the opportunity to fly. Mathias had not underestimated her, and at only 24 years old, she became known as the best engineer in the Airborne Corps. She is currently stationed on the <span class=""bb-i"">Helig Vind</span>, the flagship of the Airborne Corps.</div></div>

He was the Prince of Varmland before the war, and this has earned him the support of the people, who supply his rebels with everything they can without getting caught. People often fake their own death in order to join his army, being brought to one of his hideouts through a complex series of safehouses and forgotten roads. There are other rebel groups, but his is the most well funded, with rumors saying that he even has a naval force. However, he hasn't forgotten the Airborne Corps that defeated him, and is now obsessed with getting Elan to build his own airships.

There is little known about the man himself, but it is a well known fact that he despises Kalle XII. He sees him as a manipulative and power-hungry tyrant who gains loyalty through word instead of action. Despite being a royal, he is a Communalist and is greatly inspired by the A.U.N.S, and has many times vowed to create a Communalist state if he ever succeeds in securing Varmland's freedom. Since it seems to be the only choice for the people of Varmland, most of them now find themselves becoming Communalists.</div></div>

Important Locations:
""Our cities are thriving, our fortresses are impenetrable, and our monuments stand tall. Never before has the North seen such glory.""
--King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

Heligastaden: The capital of Vanjana, this city is both a bustling port city and a center of industry, a thick cloud of smog constantly hanging in the sky. The classes are highly visible here, with the rich living right on the coast and the housing getting progressively worse as one journey's further inland. Since the factories are far from the rich, the city seems relatively clean from the coast. However, venturing too far from the docks will land you in a smog-filled, gang-run hell.

Oövervinnligafästning: The center of all Vanjanan military operations, this is a massive citadel on Vanjana's coast that contains facilities for all four military branches. It is connected via telegram to all other military installations, able to command any force, anywhere in Vanjana. Its defenses are certainly not trivial, with a division of Vanjana's best troops stationed there at all times and many of Vanjana's Naval fleets calling it home. It is where the main Elan Ship fleet is stationed as well, and has a dedicated AA system to support them in the event of an aerial attack. It is said that even if the cities of Vanjana are reduced to rubble, Oövervinnligafästning will still be standing.

Palatsavdenlord: The royal palace, located in the countryside near Heligastaden. It was built quite recently by King Kalle XII himself, as he had come to hate the smog of the city. It is famous for its extravagance, which the King has many times asserted is only to impress diplomats, insisting that he would have rather spent the money on something more practical. Whatever he claims, it is still true that the palace is a perfect example of badly allocated funds. Funnily enough, with the constant expansion of industry, the King had to officially order that the land around the palace be kept rural so as to keep the smog away.

Vanjana: The central part of the nation situated in-between Varmland and Nordsted, this is the location of the capital, royal palace, and Oövervinnligafästning. It is the seat of the Empire, and its inhabitants are by far the most loyal. Industry is abundant here, as the Vanjanan Kingdom that became the Holy Vanjanan Empire was quick to embrace the industrial revolution.

Nordsted: The norther part of the Empire, this is a territory conquered fifteen years ago in the Great Nordsjön War. It is a frozen and mountainous land with many deposits of resources such as iron, coal, lumber, and Elan. It is were the majority of the Empire's resources come from, and tends to be cooperative with the Imperial government thanks to Kalle XII's political maneuvering convincing them that he was liberating them from a corrupt government. 

Varmland: The southern part of the Empire, which is across the Lägre Nordsjön and borders Rhinland. It is by far the most rebellious, though every attempt at freeing themselves from Vanjanan rule has been met with failure. They are kept in line only with fear, and most inhabitants of this land are simple farmers, with no way to get effective weapons. They provide most of the food to support Vanjana and Nordsted, but are nonetheless treated as second-class citizens due to their rebelliousness.

Cultural Overview: The people of Vanjana proper come in two types: The extremely rich and the extremely poor. Almost everyone lives in a city, and all cities have clear class separations. The rich live in the middle of the city, and as you go further out, the buildings get more rundown and covered is soot from the factories. Sadly, there is no sign of this changing, as even the poor workers are content with it. They have a ""There's no point in trying"" attitude towards change, and settle for their meager wages and constant bombardment of smoke. While these poor men, women, and children slowly kill themselves in the smog-filled hellhole of the outer city, the rich throw extravagant parties in the inner city, not caring at all whether their workers live or die so long as they get their profits. Even in the hell in which they live, the poor can find the time for fun, and it is not uncommon to see people of all ages playing various sports during off-hours.

In Nordsted, the same society as Vanjana proper continues until a point at which the hills end and the mountains begin. Past that point, there are no rich or poor, only people. They may be employed by the rich of Vanjana and the King himself, but the rich rarely come to the mines, and thus they live a much better life than the poor of Vanjana proper. The only steam-powered machines in the mountains are mining lifts, which don't cause nearly enough pollution to create the hellish conditions seen in the cities. Those in the mining towns are famous for their ""Festival av Frihet"", which is an annual festival celebrating the day Nordsted was conquered by Vanjana. They see that day as their day of liberation, as the mines were formerly harassed by bandits until the Vanjanan military wiped them out. Even the rich in the cities allow their workers to travel to the festival, as doing so gets them in well with the King, who obviously likes the fact that the festival exists.

In Varmland, there are few cities, and most of the land is dotted with farms. It holds the vast majority of Vanjanan food production, as Vanjana proper and Nordsted have little arable land. Even more so than Nordsted, its people are free from the tyranny of the rich, with each farm being independent of any larger organization. Despite their relative freedom, they are the most rebellious, still holding on to their nationality. However, very few will publicly display their ideas, as the freedom only extends to those who do not oppose the King. The Vanjanan military puts down any revolts, and the people of Varmland live not in fear of the rich, but in fear of the King.

The dominant religion in the Holy Vanjanan Empire is ""Aätt av Atjärnan Ljus"", and its followers are known as ""Soldater av Stjärnan Ljus"". They believe that all the universe is in a constant struggle between good and evil, and that there are an infinite number of gods and goddesses constantly battling on each side in order to secure victory. They believe that the stars are worlds just like Adara, some of which are populated by mortals, and others which are wastelands created from the endless war. It is believed that all mortals were created by goddesses (and only goddesses) on both sides to do battle for them. As such, it is an incredibly violent religion, known for seeing anyone who refuses to convert as a mortal created by an evil goddess.

The Soldater av Stjärnan Ljus worship one goddess in particular, who they simply call ""The Goddess"". She is believed to be the goddess that created the good humans, and is said to grant her power to only the best of people. King Kalle XII claims to be one of these people, going so far as to say that he is the avatar of The Goddess' will. There are many Monks and Nuns who have spent their entire lives devoted to worshipping the Goddess, hoping to be chosen to gain her power in their next life.

There are multiple languages in the Holy Vanjanan Empire, but the most used is Vanjanani (Similar to Swedish). Ancient Vanjanani is used in the anthem, however, and most know at least those words. The currency is the Fyrapoängstjärnamynt (Often shortened to Frya). There are quarter Frya coins, half Frya coins, one Frya coins, two Frya coins, four Frya coins, eight Frya coins, and sixteen Frya coins. The coins below one Frya are made from silver, their thickness determining their value. Above one Frya, the coins are made from gold, with their width determining their value. All are stamped with the face of Kalle XII.

Technology Overview: Vanjana is highly advanced in aeronautics, thanks to their large supply of Elan to experiment with. They are on the frontline of aeronautical advancements, constantly finding new ways to extend airship efficiency and effectiveness. They view the sky as the future, and are eager to reach it. Their cities are all connected by rail and telegraph lines, and they laid a telegraph line across both the Lägre Nordsjön and the Övre Nordsjön to enable telegraph communications between Vanjana proper, Nordsted, and Varmland. Industry in Vanjana is also quite advanced, with Elan being used more commonly than in other nations. 

Vanjanan airships use a special type of ammunition in the mains guns. Known as ""Elan Shot"", this ammunition burns a small amount of Elan to reduce its weight when fired. There are different types of Elan Shot for different distances, as they are meant to run out of Elan before hitting the target. The antigravity effects of Elan allow a higher velocity to be achieved for these projectiles, and have the side effect of leaving behind a trail of Elan smoke. One can always tell when a Vanjanan airship is firing from by looking for those trails of smoke, but they have a larger destructive capability thanks to their velocity.

Military Overview: 
'For the glory of the Goddess!""
-Vanjanan battle cry

The Vanjanan military is split up into three divisions: The Holy Vanjanan Army, the Holy Vanjanan Navy, and the Holy Vanjanan Air Corps. Out of these three, the Navy is by far the weakest, as they are the smallest in number. They van hold their ground given a good leader, but without one, they'll find themselves easily overrun. The Army has been the pride of Vanjana for decades, with well-disciplined and well-trained troops that hold their own even when vastly outnumbered. However, it is the King that truly makes the Army shine. It is believed that if the King is leading a battle, the Goddess herself is fighting with the Vanjanans. The King certainly does his best to reinforce this idea, as he didn't lose a single battle in the Great Nordsjön War.

The Airborne Corps is the most advanced division, with highly efficient Elan Drives and their Elan Shot. However, they are inexperienced in air-to-air combat, as war games can only account for so much. If the enemy uses a strategy they practiced for, they could most likely easily crush them. However, if the enemy Admiral invented a new tactic, they could very well be defeated unless their own Admiral came up with a way to counter it. The Airborne Corps is, however, one of the largest air fleets in the world. If all else fails, they could resort to sheer numbers. If they reached that point though, it likely means that they'll either lose anyways or take heavy losses winning.

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Zl9pYg5.jpg?1""/></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span> Lumenor is governed as a constitutional monarchy. The Kuunin, Lumenor's King, is a largely ceremonial figure, serving as a figurehead, a symbol of national authority, and a balance of power against the more democratic institutions of the Lumen state. Most real legislative power in Lumenor falls upon the Vanha Suuri, a unicameral legislature composed of a mixture of appointed civil servants from various aspects of the state apparatus, as well as elected representatives of the (male) citizenry. The Vanha Suuri is decidedly lacking in intrigue and excitement; corruption and other unscrupulous acts are strongly despised by the Lumen, and vigorously prosecuted when suspected to have occurred. The parliament also has a reputation for reactionary action, even among its more liberal members. Itself a product of ancient history, the Vanha Suuri and its members—called Vansuurs—are fiercely protective of the cultural and historical institutions of the Lumen state. Times change rapidly in Lumenor, however, and the possibility of the Vanha Suuri changing along with them grows ever more likely with each passing day.

The Vanha Suuri's parliamentary powers, unlike in most monarchies, precede the rise of Lumenor's Kuunins. It was the Vanha Suuri, in fact, that appointed Lumenor's first Kuunin, over a millenium before the current day. The Vanha Suuri's history lies in the history of the pagan Lairreen people, to whom the Vanha Suuri served a religious purpose as the echoing of the Gods. The people of the Lairreen tribes would select the most devout among them and gather them together in the precursor to the modern Hall of Elders to hear the desires of the Gods. It was such a convening, the very last that the Vanha Suuri ever held as a religious body, that resulted in the appointment of the first Kuunin. The Kuunin's purpose was to politically unite the Lairreen people, and to forge an army from them capable of casting back the Lansi, an invading people originating from the west. The Lansi were a strongly militaristic folk, descended from the same family lines as the people of modern day Acier. They were united under a powerful emperor, Soturi III, the grandson of a former Lansi chieftain who led his tribe to conquest against the other Lansi tribes, and in the process forged himself a powerful, centralized Lansi empire.

The Vanha Suuri and the Kuunin were ultimately unsuccessful in their attempts to cast back Soturi III's invasion. After a horrifically bloody struggle, the Lairreen eventually found themselves a subject people of the newly implanted Lansi. The Lansi, out of respect for the tenaciousness and ferocity of the Lairreen, and in an attempt to pacify the land and avoid future rebellion, came to adopt many of the Lairreen practices as their own, morphing them as necessary to accommodate their traditional Lansi practices. Soturi III adopted the title of 'Kuunin', and had it passed down by his sons over the following generations, as was the custom under the Lansi empire. In the decades and centuries that followed, the Lairreen and Lansi gradually merged into one cohesive people under the leadership of the Kuunin, merging together over the years into the Lumen of today. For its role in creating the title of Kuunin and mediating the Lansi takeover of Lairreen society, the Vanha Suuri is considered to be responsible for the creation of Lumenor.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span> Lumenor's economy is strongly centred around manufacturing. All manner of products, though especially those produced mostly or entirely from metals, are fashioned and assembled in the numerous factories dotting the industrial centres of the country's south. The economy of the north, meanwhile, is mostly focused on the production of the metals themselves. The mountains of northern Lumenor are abound with mines of varying sorts, and their bounty's extraction to fuel the industry of the south compromises most of the north's economic activity. Also of note in Lumenor's economy is the country's fiscal probity. Both cultural and legal measures contribute towards Lumenor's strong fiscal standing, and this monetary expertise has resulted in the emergence of a rapidly expanding financial sector in Lumenor's southern population centres.

The Kingdom of Lumenor is strongly protectionist, weary of growing overly dependent on foreign goods and services. Protectionist policy is a long-standing fact of life in Lumenor, and has over the years made a lasting cultural impact on the Lumen people. Lumen are distasteful towards the idea of purchasing goods from abroad, and buy locally whenever possible both because of the effect of government policy and simply out of habit. This trend towards mercantilism extends doubly to products arriving from colonial possessions; rather than merely being heavily taxed, import of resources from colonies on the southern continent is illegal. Export of domestic materials in Lumenor of unique or special value, such as Elan, is equally illegal.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Leader(s) and Important People</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Naavalor IX Kuunin;</span> Born Jarrd Eskven, Naavalor is Lumenor's current sovereign. A native of Pientila, Naavalor was born in the purple, and has been preened for leadership since his birth, fifty-two years ago. Naavalor took up the title of Kuunin after the death of his father, who was the longest reigning Kuunin in the country's history. He has one child, Yarnal Eskven, a son of age twenty, born to a wife who took ill and died shortly after her son was born. Jarrd is an old man who has long since been made bitter from his wife's death and his son's constant escapades. He doubts that he will ever live long enough to outmatch his illustrious father, and has taken it upon himself to outdo in accomplishment what he cannot outdo in longevity. Naavalor has colonial ambitions, and his desire to achieve prestige in this manner has resulted in his stepping increasingly outside of the bounds of his constitutional powers, to suppress naysayers of the Lumen Empire. Although intended to be apolitical, Naavalor's desire to be known in history backs as the man who brought Lumenor into the new age has resulted in his being an illicit supporter of the modernist factions within the Vanha Suuri since his ascension. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Maat Vinter;</span> Lumenor's Head of Government, and the leader of the Auld Stripe: the traditionalist faction of the Vanha Suuri. Maat's family line, the Vinters, are a leading industrialist family in Hoportti, Maat's place of birth. Members of their family have held office in the Vanha Suuri for hundreds of years, and they're heralded as the first family to bring the wonders of the Industrial Age to Lumenor. Maat has five children with his wife, Brigitte Vinter, who is a relative of the exiled royal family of Acier. The couple life in a manor in Hoportti, but own a second home in Pientila for Maat's work in the Hall of Elders, and a summer home in the mountains in Lumenor's north-east.

Maat's political party, the Auld Stripe, is the largest faction within the Vanha Suuri. The Auld Stripe is a long-standing formal alliance of social conservatives and other traditionalists. They strongly opposes Lumenor's entrance into colony-building, and voraciously defends Lumenor's protectionist policies, which incidentally keep industrialist Auld Stripes like the Vinters from having to compete with foreign enterprises on equal footing. The Auld Stripe is supported by the vast majority of the appointed seats in the Hall of Elders, 39 out of 50, signifying their support by most of the country's generals and lawmakers. Of the 150 seats in the Vanha Suuri which are elected, the Auld Stripe hold 60, giving them just over a third of the country's popular support. This discrepancy between support by appointed seats and by the electorate has long been criticized by modernists as a mechanical bias in favour of traditionalism.

<span class=""bb-i"">Tuuli Vanska;</span> The second most noteworthy politician in the Vanha Suuri, and the leader of 'Usikun', the largest of the modernist factions in Lumen politics. Tuuli is the founder of Usikun, which she formed in an explicit attempt to unite the modernist movement and remove the Auld Stripe from power. Her successes have been partial, at best. Though Usikun is the second largest party in the Vanha Suuri, it has failed to annex the other modernist parties, and is even divided from within. Various different elements from republicans to extremist monarchists find themselves together within Usikun, united together more or less by only one thing: a desire for serious change, in one way or another. The only policy which all members of Usikun support is ending the practice of granting high level civil servants appointed seats within the Vanha Suuri. That, and a general dislike towards the Auld Stripe, is the glue that keeps Usikun together.

Tuuli herself is an imperious woman, tall, and exuding an aura of calm. She is relentlessly confident, even in the face of stacked odds, and devotes herself entirely to her political work. This devotion has resulted in her becoming something of a social recluse; she has never married, and though she was born in a small village in the country's mountainous north-east, she has never been there since she first left for Pientila to pursue a career in politics. Tuuli is the first woman to achieve notable political office in the Vanha Suuri, and one of the changes she seeks to enact in the country is the expansion of rights for women.

<span class=""bb-i"">Sarko Voros;</span> A famous (some might say infamous) Lumen explorer. Sarko was born in the mountainous north-east of Lumenor, but left quickly upon reaching adulthood, seeking a new home as far removed from his old village as possible: the coastal metropolis of Hoporrti. It was in Hoporrti that Sarko began work as a merchant, establishing his business, ""Voroseskso"", as the premier vendor of exotic goods in Lumenor. Sarko's attempts at acquisition of rarer and rarer wares eventually led him to launch a large-scale exploratory expedition to the southern continent. Upon his return, Sarko told tales of a land untouched by modernization, where the rarest of all goods can be found in bountiful abundance. The Voroseskso expedition ignited a curiosity in the Lumen of what might lay in store for them in South Adara. This curiosity, however, has been tempered by the tentativeness of the Auld Stripe. Although Sarko's merchant fleet's activities are technically legal, as he is a Lumen citizen, and the goods he exchanges in Hoporrti were not purchased from any foreign state recognized by the Vanha Suuri, his quickly expanding trade networks are a threat to the dominance of the Auld Stripe's ideal of isolationism, and their Vansuurs' tight control over the Lumen economy. King Naavalor, arguing for the precise opposite of the Auld Stripe's demands for Vorosesko's abolition, has been in talks with Sarko to turn Vorosesko's southward trade missions into missions of colonization and territorial expansion.

<span class=""bb-i"">Televa Tikari;</span> A loyal ally of King Naavalor, and one of Lumenor's greatest foreign diplomats. Mr. Tikari was a man born into squalor in the slums of Pientila's south, and found himself completely without family before reaching adulthood. King Naavalor's illustrious father took Tikari in from the streets, and educated him in the ways of the statesmen, grooming him to become one of his finest and most dedicated aides. Upon Naavalor's assumption of power, Tikari's loyalties turned to him, and his actions to furthering his ambitions. Although he presents a calm and tactful presence, Tikari is devious man, and without emotion. He thinks nothing of doing all that is necessary to accomplish his goals, and strikes only when he is sure he is capable of delivering a fatal blow.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Pientila</span></span>

Lumenor's capital city, and home to the Hall of Elders (the Vanha Suuri's Chambers) and the Royal Residence of the Kuunin of Lumenor. Pientila is Lumenor's second largest city, and is situated along the north coast of Lake Vanha, in the nation's south. The modern day city is built around a historic core that dates back to before the foundation of Lumenor. Many historical sites such as churches and ancient fortresses and villas have been preserved in Pientila, including an imposing medieval wall that encloses the historic city centre. It is this centre, the Historic Quarter, which is home to the Kuunin's Palace and the Vanha Suuri. Outside of the Historic Quarter, the city is notable for being home to a great many public parks and low-density housing projects. Many of Pientila's poorer residents live in the city's extreme south, which is home to a number of branch plants developed by industrial enterprises based out of Hoporrti. 

Pientila is an ancient city, its founding preceding the arrival of the Lansi into Lumenor by several hundred years. The settlement, merely a large town at the time of the Lansi Conquest, was the place where the Vanha Suuri submitted themselves to Soturi III, ending the conquest with a decisive Lansi victory over the Lairreen. The Vanha Suuri's surrender was encouraged by threats made by Soturi III against the town should they persist in their defiance; if the Vanha Suuri did not surrender, Soturi III had threatened to burn down the settlement entirely, and slaughter every single one of its residents. The surrender of the First Vanha Suuri avoided this fate. Instead, it was only the Vanha Suuri themselves who were burned, their Hall of Elders set ablaze with the Vansuur locked inside by the Lansi victors. On the ashes of the Old Hall of Elders, Soturi III built a new Hall, in the Lansi style, which has stood (albeit with extensive renovations) to the modern day.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Hoporrti</span></span>

The largest city, main trade port and industrial and financial centre of Lumenor. Hoporrti rests along Lumenor's southern coast, at the tip of the Kast peninsula. Originally a small fishing village, Hoporrti experienced an exponential population boom upon the arrival of the Second Industrial Revolution, and its rapid outward expansion led to it administratively annexing numerous other neighbouring towns, which now serve as neighbourhoods of Hoporrti. In significant contrast to the historical buildings and wide open spaces found in Pientila and most of Lumenor's small settlements, Hoporrti is both densely urbanized and starkly modern. The city is home to start-of-the-art infrastructure to facilitate public transportation—including an underground railway system—and its tall, gleaming buildings and polished streets act as a statement to the rest of the world of the wonders of the modern age. Hoporrti downtown core is home to most of Lumenor's rapidly growing finance sector, and the rest of city is largely what gives Lumenor its industrial might: Hoporrti's industrial enterprises are a Goliath of Adara's manufacturing industry, and their factories pump out products twelve hours a day, earning vast wealth for their owners, and a fair slice of the pie of prosperity for the hard workers that man them. The Hoporrti Docks, from which the metropolis originated, are home to much of Lumenor's naval presence, and also serve a role as a major commercial shipping centre and trade area.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span> The Lumen are an orderly and just people, famed for their calmness and their somewhat superfluous formality. Crime and other instruments of chaos are rare sights throughout the domain of the Lumen, and the Lumen love of order permeates even into their art and leisure. Lumen enjoy highly regimented sports, and are masters of artistic styles demanding strong adherence to boundaries, and representing realistic concepts. 

Lumen are also infamously introverted. Social events, though not by any means rare, and almost never spontaneous. Public displays of emotion are typically restricted to special events, and are more often that not displays of patriotism. The state itself, in particular the Kuunin, plays an important role in Lumen national identity. The state existed, as a union of the Lairreen and Lansi, before the Lumen did themselves. Another, relatively unique facet of Lumen culture is its secularity. The traditional faith of the Lumen's precursor peoples was extinguished long ago, and although Lumenor permits free religious practice, the vast majority of the Lumen are irreligious.

On the whole, Lumenor's technological development could be best described as 'average'. Domestic Lumen ingenuity is counteracted by protectionist policy and a more than healthy degree of technological conservatism, preventing foreign technologies from being rapidly adopted. The exception to this rule is the city of Hoporrti, which is home to the very latest in infrastructural developments and other instruments of civilian import. This is due mostly to the extremely high focus placed on R&amp;D by Hoporrti's ruling industrialist families. The need to preserve isolation from foreign economies is matched by the need to keep up to date with them, ensuring that much of the profits earned by Hoporrti's (and thus Lumenor's) most wealthy go back towards furthering technological advancement.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span></span>

Lumenor's tradition of isolationism demands for a strong defensive-oriented military. Land fortresses, either newly constructed or newly renovated mark the eastern and western borders of the Lumen homeland. The Lumen Royal Navy, though lacking in experience at long reach operations, excels in defensive actions, and patrols the Lumen northern and southern coasts as rigorously as the Lumen army casts eyes and aims rifles over the land. The importance of military self-reliance is not lost on the Lumen, and all Lumen military ships, weapons, ammunition and supplies are all conceived and manufactured within the confines of the state. As with civilian technological advancements, this results in Lumenor being unreceptive to foreign inventions. Unlike with civilian technological advancements, however, the militaries of Lumenor's neighbours likely would not be fond of sharing their technological secrets with foreign states in the first place, making isolationism more effective in the military sphere than in the civilian sphere.</div></div></div>"

Flag: <img src=""http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/g/gb-s-lewis.gif""/>
Government: Appropriations are controlled in the name of the Grand Duke by a unicameral, directly elected popular vote Parliament, as are taxes and generally every facet of government but the military, where HGDH The Grand Duke exercises control in organization and deployment. He also may submit declarations of war to the parliament which may only be rejected with a two thirds vote.

Economy: As a liberal economy, Resia focuses on the financial and investment sectors, but most of all on maritime shipping. The country is heavily industrialized, but limited population and limited land area prevents it from being THE industrial powerhouse.

As for natural resources, the government is experimenting with offshore oil drilling on account of coal supplies being not that numerous. 

For food, fishing in the gigantic Resian territorial waters is a tremendous part of the economy and helps mitigate low agricultural yields.

Leader(s): 
~Grand Duke Vilhem I
~Prime Minister Lord Lloyd Smith.
~Admiral of The Fleet and Chief of the Admirality, Count Charles of Tayer.
~The Chief of the General Staff and Field Marshal, Margrave George of the Eastern Isles. 

Desired Map location: http://imgur.com/8iIbWIF


Important Locations: 
~Streymoy: the metropolitan home island and also the largest.
~Lohna, the beautiful and gigantic capital city, and site of most financial activity. 
~Westmark and Eastmark: The furthest west island and furthest east islands. Their precarious positions are not unaware to the government. While Eastmark is close enough to fit niceky under the iron umbrella of the mighty Resian Navy, Westmark is too far to station a significant portion of the navy. Accordingly, it is effectively a garrison state. Press freedoms are limited, every citizen is required to own a gun, and much of the developed land by the coast is used for impressive coastal  fortifications, and the beach is covered in obstacles for an amphibious assault. The army maintains a very large Westmark garrison.

Cultural Overview: The Resians have always been a free people, not withstanding they have not always had a means of legitimately participating in government. The widely distributed nature of the island kingdom meant rebels could revolt and rapidly secure the islands, forcing the government to have to make opposed amphibious landings against a well-armed people who have likely commandeered coastal cannon in the easy places to land. Thus, the Grand Dukes generally avoided incurring the wrath of his people when possible and reasonable demands were agreed to.

They are a hardworking, industrious, traditional and conformist people. A lack of government force has meant that those who defy social norms are only censured by an appropriate degree of ostracism. 

Technology Overview: With limited government interference, the society of Resia has always been on the forefront of technology, whether the Resians have liked it or not. Better means of production, discovered in Resia or learned on voyages to other lands, are rapidly adopted by the market's invisible hand. 

Military Overview: 

By far, the predominant military arm is the navy.

Crucial to the navy's strength is the means by which the armor is made. It is a revolutionary process, and an intensely guarded state secret. The armor, a unique steel mixture with Carbon (cemented by gas cementation on only the outward facing side of the armor) Nickel, Manganese, Silicon, Magnesium, and Sulphur is heated on only one side while the other side is buried in clay. Once 40% of the plate is at the needed temperature for face hardening, the plate is dragged out of the furnace and into an enormous vat of water to ensure uniform cooling. The resultant armor is very hard on the exposed face, but not very prone to spalling or cracking. Given that GCMK2 (Gas Cementation Mark 2) armor is a very new, bleeding edge technology, it is only on the newest ships. Armor on the older ships, the GCMK1 armor is more prone to cracking and spalling, but will resist ship weapons just as well. Reserve ships have the 15% less effective CC (Coal Cementation) armor.

Airships:

Ever the skeptics, the General staff questioned the cost effectiveness of a purely Elan based, pure flying ship. A hybrid airship/boat with a change of propellers (the engines cannot tolerate high RPMs, so a very large propeller is needed in the air) could travel by air or sea, land just about anywhere, and would have a longer range. This is the basis of the Falcon class, an interceptor/scout designed to conserve Elan.  

~Falcon Class Air Destroyer (60): Displacement: 236 metric tons. 
Armor: None 
Vertical Propulsion: 34 meter diameter spherical rigid helium balloon. 
Sea speed: 31 knots Airspeed: Theoretically capable of insanely faster speeds, speeds of 35 knots are about the max unless in the middle of combat due to the intense windspeeds making walking on the deck difficult. When everyone is at batttlestations, sheltered from the winds, speeds of 60 knots are not unheard of. Armament:  -1 QF 12 pounder 
-3 QF 6 pounder 
-4 QF 1 pounder autocannon  


~Hellfire Class Port Attack Ship (30)  

Differs only from the falcon in armament:  

Armament: 
-1 QF 12 pounder

Its brown bricks become cleaner as the building goes higher and higher, capped with a pristine bronze roof on the clock tower. In its bowels, the Small Council meets routinely.

11 members sit around the table, waiting for their last member with various degrees of patience. The Fleet Admiral eats a foul-smelling fish sandwich, and receives disgusted grimaces from the High Chamberlain. The High Justice flicks through papers, and the Field Marshall fidgets in her seat, looking at the clock every few seconds. Eventually the High Consul walks through the door, accompanied by a sigh of satisfaction.
Things settle down into tedium. Trade talks, budget meandering, and the rest pass uneventfully. Military fears are discussed and dismissed, and the topic of the draft comes up briefly before being dismissed quickly, the Council unwilling to be drawn into that particular tooth-and-nail debate. After the foreplay of unimportant talk, the High Consul calls for order to speak.

“Fellow Councilors. Ahem. FELLOW COUNCILORS”. The council falls silent. “I have before me a paper from Lucius Medici, High Consul of the Kingdom of the Red Dragon.”. The High Chamberlain speaks briefly, a confused expression on his wide face “Those spear-throwers from the South? You’re telling me they have diplomats?”. Before the Consul can respond, Marshal Lysette elbows him in the side roughly, and in quiet tones explains the reality of the situation, motioning for the Consul to continue.

“They are offering to receive a representative from our Republic, to negotiate trade. A friendly port on the southern continent would be a windfall, and it is my proposal that the Council act on such events as quickly as possible.”

A chorus of ‘Aye’ goes round the table, before the Councilors stop, bemused at the first unanimous vote in who knows how long. The Consul smiles and sits back down, obviously pleased with himself. The meeting continues for a time, but after another quarter of an hour it is adjourned, and the 12 most important people in the nation return to their various duties. Just outside, Marshal Lysette walks quickly to speak with Consul Montefleur.

“High Consul, I have a recommendation for the diplomat.” The Montefleur sighs.
“I wonder, Marshal Lysette, would this recommendation be your protegee… what was her name?”. Quickly, the Field Marshal responds. “Colonel MacAlistair is the perfect choice! She is well-known, garnering favor in Red Dragon. She’s an immigrant, which will get good press at home. She is charismatic, and better, she is the perfect leader for the 2nd Dragoons, who are going with her.”
The Consul stopped walking, the Marshal overtaking him before walking back. “Marshal Lysette, please do not tell me that you think sending an ARMY REGIMENT with a diplomat is a good idea!” His voice has raised to a shout at this point.

“I don’t need to care what you think, they are my soldiers to do with what I please. I am sending them to protect our diplomat, and to measure up the military capabilities of the Red Dragon. That is all you have to know. Any other reasons are mine and mine alone.”
The Consul sighs, used to the pig-headedness so pervasive in the military. “Fine”, he says dejectedly, but the Marshal has already left, leaving him standing alone in the long, wood-floored hallway.

A few hours later, two women in uniform, one clad ostentatiously in epaulets and gold braid, one in the plain blue, marked only by the silver eagle of Colonel. They talk casually, despite the difference in rank. “Remember Colonel – you are not to make a scene. Bow, courtesy, do whatever they ask of you. Fetch and carry if you have to, and whatever you do, ensure you give a good first impression to their leadership. This mission is of the utmost importance, and with this trade deal millions will benefit. Once you have established diplomatic talks, and ONLY when you have done so, open this.”

The Field Marshall hands the young Colonel Lea MacAlistair a large envelope, sealed with the army insignia in deep red wax. The Colonel salutes. “Yes ma’am. I will do you proud.”. The Marshal returns the salute as the Colonel walks off to board the train that holds her new command.
The Consul and the High Justice glare at each other in a wood-paneled private room of their particular favourite club. The Justice smokes a fat, cheap cigar, while the Consul drinks some inexpensive brandy in unhealthy amounts. The Consul speaks first.

“The dispatch from the Red Dragon was not the only missive I received. The other was one of particular interest to Luminor, and their opposition party. Our informants tell us that the tensions between the protectionist government and the more favourable opposition party are growing, and our spies tell us that we are in a position to influence policy. I propose we send a somewhat more subtle representative to speak with this opposition party, and try and earn trade rights. I need your help.”

The High Justice looks pensively at the wall. The Consul knows this is a contentious issue for his opposite, and expected a long deliberation. What he did not expect was the High Justice responding “Proceed with caution, Consul, but do what you think is best”. Hiding the surprise, Montefleur nods and moves for the door, satisfaction overtaking him as soon as he is out of sight.


The train to Foiture is loud, foul-smelling and uncomfortable. The military line is built to speed and efficiency, though why someone would ever choose to build it like this momentarily escapes Colonel MacAlistair. She sits in the officer’s car, alone but for a pair of midshipmen in the white-and-blue of Naval officers. The two young men chat eagerly, a game of cards ignored on the table in front of them. Lea holds a tattered paperback, all the rage in Lutte but lost on her

She stands up and looks out the window, a blur of green and brown meeting her as she brushes the remnants of a pie from her untidy uniform. The Midshipmen glance over, and casually salute before turning back to their banal conversation. After straightening her uniform, Lea walks back into the rear carriages, surely full to bursting with her Dragoons, happily parted from their horses until Foiture. 800 soldiers in a group with a storied history, it was daunting for inexperienced Colonel MacAlistair to walk through the doors into the first of the soldier’s carriages, but one did not become a Colonel without a generous serving of determination, and the door swung open at her touch.

The noisy locomotive drowned out the sounds of the soldiers in the front car, but upon opening the door Lea was assaulted by the noise. The familiar sound of fighting men singing fills the car, one of the seemly endless songs every enlisted man picks up when joining the Army.

“Let every young bachelor fill up his glass! Vive la companie!”

Colonel MacAlistair walked down the center aisle, “inspecting” her soldiers. She saw people of all stripes, the Dragoons being a professional regiment. She saw older men with large grey beards, mottled with the scars of battle. She saw young men, some little older than schoolboys, eager eyes and clean features animated in song or chat. She even saw several women, volunteers like the rest, looking hard and stern, eager to prove themselves the equal of their male counterparts. Women have been allowed in the armed forces as volunteers since the Revolution, and can be found serving in most every branch, with the exceptions of Grenadiers and other regiments that require a great deal of physical strength.

“And drink to the health of his favourite lass! Vive la companie!”

Soldiers lounge about in various poses, in various states of undress and preparedness. The soldier’s cars have moveable stools as opposed to upholstered seats, and soldiers gather in circles to socialize. Many of the soldiers attend to their rifles, mostly the veterans to whom maintenance has become instinctual. War is mostly walking, followed closely by waiting, and marked occasionally by extreme terror, and veterans only become so by being prepared for the latter during the former. So, they sit in silence or in conversation cleaning barrels, checking box magazines for fault or crack, checking or oiling receivers and sliding bolts back and forth.

“Let every old married man drink to his wife! Vive la companie!”

The deployment was highly irregular, and Lea lacked a Major as second in command. The 5 captains were given space in the caboose, but lieutenants sat either in small groups of other officers or were seen occasionally mingling with the men of their platoon. As she walked, she drew salutes like a wave of respect, quickly moving on and leaving the soldiers to their revelry. It is never good form for an officer to stay with their command longer than necessary – the enlisted can never relax around their superiors, and carousing officers are left guilty at the end of the fighting, or worse, incapable of doing their duty. Lea leaves the car, and continues through several more on her way to her HQ

“The Joy of his bosom and comfort in life! Vive la companie!” 

The music faded away as the final door closed, leaving her in the tense quiet of her Captains. Uneasily, she settled down to work. She never would get used to authority.

The throne room of the King was like nothing Helmi had ever seen. Its ceiling reached so high that she could imagine a cloud forming inside the room, and there was enough gold to provide for an entire town for years. Before the war, she would have seen it as a waste, but the savior of the North knew what he was doing. He would never waste anything, so there was surely some reason for his extravagance. Likely to impress diplomats, something he seemed to be quite obsessed with despite withholding the Vanjanan Elan.

""Your Majesty!"" She said, curtsying in her dress uniform. It was essentially a normal Airborne Corps uniform, but with significantly more gold highlights, not to mention her many medals.

""Ah, Miss Lisbet."" Responded the King from his throne, his white royal robe tucked behind him. ""What a pleasure to meet you.""

""The pleasure is all mine, your majesty! It is an unspeakable honor to speak with you, liberator of Nordsted, king of the one and only Holy Empire, chosen of the Goddess!""

Kalle chuckled quietly at the titles, standing up from his throne and walking towards Helmi. She stared at him like he was from another world, which wasn't far from the truth. At least, the Church's truth. <span class=""bb-i"">Being</span> the Church, Kalle had little opposition to the idea. Once he was quite close to her, he stopped, letting her continue to stare in silence. She was obviously in suspense, wondering what he had summoned her for. 

He was surprisingly thin, nothing like his portrait that was painted just five years ago. Back then, he had been quite heavy, though nobody ever had the courage to admit it. Apparently he had decided to lose weight, which would have made sense simply for appearance reasons, but he had obviously gone too far. Instead of the... <span class=""bb-i"">round</span> man he had been, he was now as thin as a twig. After quite a while, he finally spoke, breaking the silence.

""What? Did the titles tire you out?"" He said slowly, obviously tired despite having done barely anything for the whole day.

""Y-your majesty?"" Said Helmi, her face twisting into a look of confusion.

""Tell me."" He said, quickly turning to face towards one of the many windows in the room. ""You are a Soldat av Stjärnan Ljus, are you not?""

Thinking she knew what he was building up towards, she chose to voice her suspicions, hoping to gain respect by not playing dumb and letting him tell her. While Kalle was an arrogant and self-absorbed man, she had been told that he valued foresight.

""Yes, would you rather me refer to you as Chosen of the Goddess, your majesty?""

The King smiled broadly, turning back towards Helmi to look her in the eye. 

<span class=""bb-i"">I must have done something right.</span> She thought, returning the stare of the King.

""That comment just earned you the right to call me whatever you wish, Miss Lisbet. Mathias did not recommend you lightly, I shall reward him for this. Now, on to business.""

""Business, your majesty?""

""Yes, tell me, which is the more valuable life? That of a King, that of a soldier, that of a factory worker or that of a peasant?""

""The King, obviously. Without the King, the nation would fall apart.""

""Yes, but without the soldier, the nation would succumb to its foes. Without the factory worker, the soldier would have no rifle. Without the peasant, the factory worker would have no food.""

""The King is still at the top of the pyramid, is he not? Would he not be more important?""

""What pyramid? The dynamics of a nation cannot be expressed though height, width, and length. If any one of those four is taken away, the nation falls. Your pyramid analogy is flawed for other reasons as well, I mean, the bottom of the pyramid supports the top, but that's no important right now. What is important is that you learn that all of the classes are equal.""

""Then why do the peasants and factory workers have so little while the King has so much? Would that not imply that the King is more important?""

Immediately after she had spoken, she knew she had made a grave mistake. It sounded like she had accused the King of greed, something that could earn her countless punishments. Accusing an entrepreneur of greed was one thing, but accusing the Chosen of the Goddess? The Church would have her head if the King did not choose to punish her himself!

""There is only one King."" He said, not even showing a tiny bit of offense. ""There are millions of factory workers and peasents. I said the classes were equal, not the people.""

Even as he spoke, she sensed a ""however' coming, but it never came. The King briefly looked down at the floor as if sad, but regained his usual posture before anyone but her could notice. It was so strange, everyone had said that the King was arrogant and cruel, this man had made a joke about his abundance of titles. At this point, she didn't know which was the real King.

""That... that <span class=""bb-i"">does</span> make sense. But why did you summon me here? Surely it was not to discuss such things as the worth of different people.""

""No, it was not. I need to know one thing.""

""I don't know much about things other than machinery, but I'll try my best to answer your majesty.""

""It is about you, Miss Lisbet... erm... would you be so kind to return the favor? Of me letting you call me what you wish, I mean. Titles only get in the way of communication.""

""You didn't need to ask, your majesty. I am but a soldier, you already had the right.""

""Perhaps, but I hate to be called by my given name without having given permission, I can only assume the same would go for most.""

<span class=""bb-i"">He's right,</span> She thought. <span class=""bb-i"">I wouldn't have liked it if he ignored my title without asking.</span>

""So, Helmi, would you do anything for the Goddess? Even give your life? Even abandon your hopes and dreams to serve good?""

""Of course, your highness.""

""What if... what if the Goddess was flawed? What if she was not the perfect being the Church says she is?""

The question was asked in an almost mournful tone, which caught Helmi completely off guard. The King was never said to show any emotion but pride, and yet here he was, clearly sad about something. What was more, he blamed it on the Goddess, and the Goddess never interferes with mortal affairs on a level personal enough to cause sadness for one of her followers.

""Something doesn't have to be good to be perfect, if things did, then nothing would be good. That's what my mother always said.""

<span class=""bb-i"">Oops.</span> She thought, immediately realizing that adding 'Expect for you"" would have been a much better choice. From what she had heard, the King didn't like being called imperfect. Surprising her again, the King <span class=""bb-i"">teared up</span>, somehow touched by her comment. Nothing that was said about the King was true, he wasn't arrogance incarnate, he was a person. A person who felt sadness and happiness, excitement and boredom, maybe even love.

""A yes would have earned you my trust, a no would have earned you my respect, but that... that earned you both. Captain, you may go now.""

""With all due respect, I must correct you. My rank is Machinist-""

""Not anymore it isn't. I'm giving you command of the royal dreadnought. Use it as you see fit, as I said, I trust and respect you.""

""The royal dreadnought?! Your majesty, why?""

""Do you not feel comfortable with it?""

""No! It's just... how can <span class=""bb-i"">you</span> feel comfortable with it?""

""It is what my heart told me to do, and my heart is the only part of me I trust. The Goddess speaks through it, and she says that you are worthy of this command. You said you would obey the Goddess, did you not.""

""Yes I did, your majesty.""

""Then go and get ready to speak to your new crew. They'll be looking forward to being under the command of the legendary Helmi Lisbet.""</div>"

Nicoli Vacialtali, the Dracos Inqiusitos was stuck dancing with some rich daughter who's father hoped to gain power through her. As the music died down again he made his excuses and left to sit back, he liked women and he liked dancing but, he didn't like dancing with most women. They were always after money, power or both. There was never anyone good enough for him, the Dracos Inquisitos of the richest land on the southern continent and likely the north one too. His family had been running the land for three hundred years and here he was, dancing with the daughters of mere merchants. Admittedly that was better then he had expected to be some years prior when his older brother was lined up for the throne, when the best he could hope for was a mere merchants daughter. Then the day came, his father died and the council had to vote on their new Inquisitos, Nicoli knew then he had a small chance for his brother was taught in finances while he was taught in the arts of war and the north was becoming increasingly likely to invade the south. He knew then that some on the council would be looking for someone to bring them military security rather then the economic prosperity they already had but he was shocked then he was voted in at an eighty percent majority. 

He walked up to the large seat that was at the end of the hall and sat down, wearily. The seat was not a throne as such, since they had no 'king' but that was still the purpose it served as the ornate carvings, engravings and other such finery that adorned it stated proudly that this was a seat of power. It was only moments before he was joined by Lucius Medici, the official diplomat of the Kingdom and, unofficially, its spymaster. ""Dracossss....."" he started, trailing off as he remembered Nicoli's recent rant about being called Dracos by his inner circle, ""sorry. Nicoli, I want you to know I have sent for dispatches for new trading partners and, more importantly, allies among the northern nations, perticularly the ones who have recently grown and are likely looking for new sources of power and trade.""

""However?"" Nicoli responded knowingly to which he got a pained look from Lucius.

""How. Ever. Your idea of looking at the feasibility of arming the locals has been met with some opposition among some in the council and... apparently some of the possible allies don't like the idea of trade tariffs.""

""Then he look at offering them reduced trade tariff between us or perhaps even negating trade tariff between us and our more trustworthy allies all together."" He added looking dismissively at an approaching lady. 

Lucius looked up at the Dracos Inquisitos and took a deep breath, ""You know as well as I do the council will not like that, but.. well I shall speak with Giuseppe about such ideas and how we can supplement the loss of income."" He said, bowing as he left.

""Income we dont exactly need"" he muttered with a chuckle before Lucius's brother, Flavius, aproached determindly. Flavius was a man with whom the Dracos got along well with for they both had military mindsets and their families have ad a long history of alliances, thus why Lucius is trusted with many of the Kingdoms secrets. 

""Ahh, I see your not with some woman or other tonight, no guild masters or major merchants wanting to marry into your lineage today?"" he chuckled, knowing that Nicoli didn't enjoy such things ""Regardless, I am here on business, a shipment of AA guns and some more of those Gatling turrets you want fixed onto the walls.""

""Thank you Flavius, I appreciate the escape from all this.. politics"" he said with a smile ""Can you get your men out to test the Gatling things and to see if they need training with the AA Gun."" he then went out to observe, four guards falling in step behind him and three more, one with the Kingdoms flag on a standard taking place in the center. This was normal practice for the Dracos Inquisitos when he is moving throughout the city. As he left the sanctuary of the upper levels of the mighty floating city and force of nine men in a three by three formation took place in front of him and another to the rear. This was to keep him safe from the common populace of the city with whom he is not the most popular, since he sees the locals as equal trade partners to those in the north and seems to be too distant from the people, always playing with his guns and not so focused on the trading of the kingdom like his predecessors. Because of this there are some in the city who would actively act against him, even if most don't care for the actions of the upper classes for there will always be the few with the illusion that they, with their lack of power and nobility, can make a difference to the world.</div>"

<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Intro and basics</span></div>
The World of Adara has in the last few decades gone through its second industrial revolution. Smoke belching factories produce goods at breathtaking speeds, Rail lines crisscross the continent like a great steel spider web, and mighty iron ships rule the waves. It is a time of relative peace but high tension among the Nations of Northern Adara as they look for any means to one-up their competition and ensure their nation's place in the sun. 

Enter the untouched continent of South Adara. Formerly left alone by their northern neighbors due to the difficulty of navigation or simple lack of interest and largely untouched by the Industrial Revolutions of the North; the Kings, Emperors, and Presidents of North Adara now look towards the south with hunger in their eyes. For some it is in search of new markets for their ever expanding production of goods, for others it is the need for new natural resources with which to further expand their industry, and some others even wish to expand to liberate the noble savages from their heathen ways and bring them in line with proper Northern society. Whatever the case may be the scramble for Southern Adara has begun in full force. 


<div class=""bb-h3"">Technology</div>
Technology is meant to be largely evocative of the Later half of the 19th century as befitting a game largely going for a Scramble for Africa feeling. Railroads and steamships are the chief means of transit in the North, firearms are generally breach-loading with jacketed rounds though smokeless powder isn't necessarily a big deal yet, automatic weapons are by no means man portable, and communication by telegraph is commonplace.  That being said this is a Steampunk RP and has its own set of fantastical elements to it. Ships tend to be larger and more powerful than they would be on Earth in a similar time period, steam engines are far more efficient than they have any right to be allowing for things such as steam cars (though these are rare and tend to be the playthings of the wealthy more than anything else). 

the single largest deviation from reality comes in the form of the substance known as Elan. Elan is a solid but malleable material(a bit like clay) that is found underground. It was eventually discovered that the combustion of Elan gives off a form of anti-gravity lift. At first its applications were largely for novelty or industrial purposes, Levitation making a great party trick and the lightening of heavy loads being a great asset in industrial work. It was not long until the first Elan powered airships came to be born and travel the skies. It was not long after them that the first Elan Warships were created as well. A new arms race was born overnight as nations scrambled to construct Elan Air-Battleships to dominate the skies and all below them. Thankfully these mighty steel behemoths are largely rare sights thanks to the massive costs to construct them and the inefficiency of Elan. It takes massive amounts of the substance constantly burning to keep airships aloft, and the larger the airship the more Elan it burns each second. This makes the range for airships relatively low compared to their coal burning and sea dwelling counterparts. This has made the construction of Elan fueling platforms a major concern for those nations that have embraced the developments in the air.

<div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Rules and Guidelines</span></div>
I'll try to keep things brief because I trust you aren't a total goober, but I also feel like I need to explain the <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f-Wd8iXfgk"">Rules</a> well so that there is little confusion.

-Don't god mod. This should seem like such a no brainer but somehow it isn't. For real, making a nation where ""Is the best"" is a major feature is not kosher dude, don't do it.

-This is not a Real Time Strategy game. Don't think about it like one. Is the military section of your nation significantly more fleshed out than the rest? Do you have every small arm used by your army listed but not the names of your leaders? If yes then your mindset ain't gonna jive too well with mine. I'm fine with having an in depth description of your military especially considering that it will play a rather big role in this game, but not at the expense of everything else.

-If you have a dispute with somebody then don't clog the OOC with it. PM them first and try to discuss the issue in private. If you cannot come to an agreement then I can arbitrate these disputes but they should still be kept to PMs if at all possible.

-Be excellent to each other

-Party on dude

-Also, not a strict rule but Hiders are your friend and help to reduce clutter. Please use them if your App is ginormous.

This wouldn't be a nation RP without your nation now would it? generally speaking the intent of this RP is to play as an Imperialist power racing to exploit the underdeveloped south, though that is not to say that you cannot play a Southern nation if you so chose. Having PCs in the south could offer some really neat Roleplay opportunities and I am all for that. In the end the specifics of your nation are up to you. The setting isn't really set in stone and we can work on things to fit in a whole host of ideas.

  The Holy Kovalkan Empire is a two headed state: one secular, one spiritual. The ruling family of Kovalka are descendents of the nation’s enigmatic founder, the Saint Koval, and therefore the Kings and Vicars are themselves considered to be holy by the masses thanks to their sainted ancestry. Considering that the religious and secular authority of the nation both come from the same family, in many areas the offices of the Church and State are one and the same.

At the secular head of the empire is a hereditary King whose rule is tempered only by a limited constitution and parliament. The King is the commander and chief of all branches of the military (except the anemic air corps which is the plaything of the crown prince) though historical precedent has placed the navy as the favored branch of service; the uniform worn by the King during wartime for instance is that of a High Admiral. The King’s right hand man is the Master Seneschal, who aids him in the logistical running of the empire and helps to keep the Parliament in line as the King’s representative.

Providing spiritual leadership of Kovalka is the Grand Vicar of Koval, a position also held by a member of the royal family. Whereas rule of the nation’s body goes to the eldest son of the previous ruler, the rule over its soul goes to his eldest daughter. The Grand Vicar is always female because Saint Koval is female, one of the few facts that remain about the nation’s mysterious founder. While they are supposed to rule together, the Grand Vicar is technically the final authority in all matters as she is the one who determines whether an action by the government matches the feelings of Koval’s teachings.

The current ruler of the Empire is something that has never been seen before in Kovalkan history. Her Divine Majesty, the Queen and Grand Vicar of the Holy Kovalkan Empire, Aleksa IV is an enigma within Kovalkan tradition. As mentioned it is traditionally the eldest son who takes on the crown but the previous King, Rolak I, had only one daughter. Facing internal turmoil as he neared death, he declared that the heir to the throne would be his twenty year old old daughter who was already being groomed for the Vicariate. Undaunted by the potential sacrilege she took the crown and unified both the church and government into a single body: hers. While hardly a tyrant, Aleksa is resolute in her decisions and will go to any lengths to see her nation’s ambitions realized as she sees fit. This has made her despised by parliament who had been making gains in their authority under the lax rule of her father. She in turn despises them back far more openly once going so far as to call the members of parliament a “pack of faithless parasites.” Her policies towards several ethnic minorities within the empire have also earned her a great deal of ire, yet her standing with the average Kovalkan citizen has been outstanding who see her expansion of the military and move towards further colonization as putting the Empire back on the path of greatness. 

 Economy: The Holy Kovalkan Empire was an early adopter of the tools and techniques of the Industrial Revolution thanks to the vast reserves of coal and iron found in the mountainous Kovalkan landscape. The Empire has been slow to adopt capitalist reforms to its economy, most of the factories in Kovalka remain under control of the Church, however the need to expand on the nation’s industry has outstripped the Church’s ability to keep up. Because of this Aleksa IV has issued special Warrants of Industry to some of the wealthier nobility and merchants of the country giving them special privilege to build factories of their own on their lands. 

Kovalka is a prime exporter of raw materials, specifically iron and coal, while most of its manufactured goods are for domestic consumption. While it has several veins of Elan the demand far outstrips supply and so Elan is one of their chief imports. 


<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Leaders and Important people</span></div>

Her Divine Majesty, the Queen and Grand Vicar of the Holy Kovalkan Empire, Aleksa IV: Just entering her late middle age, Aleksa has spent much of her early career consolidating her position in the royal court and putting down several rebellion in the colonies. She now sets her sights and those of the Empire outward into the unexplored parts of the world to find great riches. 

Prince Adriatus Ingram, Royal Consort of Her Divine Majesty and father of Crown Princess Vin: The loyal retainer of Her Divine Majesty, Prince Ingram holds almost purely ceremonial power in the Empire despite being married to the most powerful woman in Kovalka. An incredibly attractive man compared to the frumpy Queen, some think he was chosen to be the Royal Consort by her Majesty purely based on his looks. 

Crown Princess Vin: Just entering her twenty second year, the Crown Princess Vin has spent much of her time ignoring her duties towards the Vicariate and instead is preoccupied with her role as Crown Princess. She has taken an especial shining to her role as commander of the Royal Aeronautical Corps which she commands from the deck of her personal flagship, the only Elan Battleship in the arsenals of Kovalka, the <span class=""bb-i"">Divine Right.</span>

High Seneschal Baron Elend Highmount: The septuagenarian High Seneschal has been in the position since the coronation of Rolak I. He has continued to hold the position after the ascension of Aleksa IV and was a prime agent in assuring the Queen's legitimacy. He is a conniving, selfish, and perverted old man who flies in the face of all that the Holy Kovalkan Empire allegedly stands for but keeps his job and his head by virtue of being excellent at his job. The fact that his (numerous) vices make him an easy target to blackmail into submission by the Crown has also helped in this regard/

High Admiral Gerrik Ragnar: The first commoner to be raised to his station, High Admiral Ragnar is a career officer and the son of an incredibly wealthy shipping magnate who become one of the first merchants to gain a Warrant of Industry. Ragnar is a brilliant officer who was one of the first of his generation of officers to grasp the implications of developments such as turreted guns and ironclads.

Grand Master Raymond Balben of the Knights Koval: A gaunt and pale man Grand Master Balben has (never to his face) been christened ""The Vampire of Koval"" both for his physical appearance and the almost monstrous precision with which he carries out his duties. He wields the Knights Koval like a surgeon wields a scalpel, using his vast informant networks and plain-clothes agents in the field to crush dissent before it even surfaces.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span></div>
Koval City: The capital of the Holy Empire, Koval City itself is a bustling metropolis full of busy dockworks and smoke belching factories all dominated by the massive edifice of the Royal Palace.

Nicholbury: The spiritual capital of the Empire. Nicholbury projects an image of immaculate beauty in its cathedrals and abbeys with nary a factory to be found anywhere within ten miles of the Basilica of Saint Koval. 

The Anvil: A resource rich island to the south of the mainland that has become the industrial heartland of the Empire. The towns located on the Anvil take the industrial revolution to its natural conclusion being little more than mines, forges, factories, and the bare minimum housing needed for the workers who run the former.
 
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span></div>
Just like how the Royal family can trace its lineage back to Saint Koval herself, many citizens can trace their lineage to those of Koval's early followers. In the early days many flocked to hear the prophet's words from all over the world. Thanks to this the Empire boasts what could be considered a loaner culture. Many elements of the Kovalkan Empire's language is drawn from those of her neighbors and beyond. Over time these disparate cultures slowly melded into one distinctly Kovalkan culture. While on the surface the Empire seems homogeneous there are dozens of regional differences in the Empire from the way people say their r's to the foods they eat and beyond. 

As one would expect from a theocracy, the one true unifying element of Kovalka has and always has been the Church of Saint Koval. While little of the Church's early history remains known in the industrial era, thanks to the Stewardship of the Church the Saint's words remain as they have for the better part of two millennia. The divine is always spoken of in vague terms, whatever god is worshiped by the church is more like a cosmic force than a singular being. The church's message is a relatively simple one, God has given mankind the power to enact great change in the world, but change must come from within. It is believed that the path to heaven is forged in life by trying to better oneself no matter their station. The fisherman strives to be the best fisherman he can just as the King's and Vicar's are supposed to strive to be the most selfless rulers possible. Should everyone work to do their absolute best in everything then the living world will become a paradise second only to the world to come. The core aspect of this theology is the Chain of Being. In Kovalkan belief all are born into their lot in life as a link on the great chain of existence upon which all humans are linked to god at the very top of the chain. The highest rung below god is that of the Saints and their descendants, the Vicars and Royals. Below them the chain continues downwards from the highest nobleman to the lowliest laborer who all must do their part to keep the chain strong for when one link is weak the entire chain is weak and when the chain is strong all links benefit. This has been abused by Kings and unscrupulous Vicars in the past to mistreat citizens of the Empire in numerous ways. However despite these abuses people's faith remains thanks to the church's simple and uplifting message of self-improvement for the common man.

 <div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview</span></div>
The HKE is on par with most other major technological powers in most regards. Virtually every city in the Empire is connected by Rail and telegraph lines ensuring a fast movement of materials and individuals across the country. The most significant advancement to come from Kovalka in recent decades is the creation of the Elan Floating-Fortress. Floating-Fortresses are warships of a scale previously unseen before anywhere on the seas. More semi-mobile weapons platform and command station, such vessels would not even be capable of moving were it not for the Elan engines which bring their herculean mass down to more manageable levels. While originally unique to Kovalka it was not long before other naval powers had constructed their own Floating fortresses, though like Elan Battleships such vessels are thankfully rare for now.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span></div>
The largest and most powerful arm of the HKE's armed forces is the Royal Navy. The royal navy has a very large focus on big guns, with an impressive battleline made of many battleships and armored cruisers. The pride and joy of the Royal Navy are without a doubt her three Floating-Fortresses each of which forms the nucleus of their three fleets. While vessels of all types bearing the Sword of Koval can be found around the world, the sight of a Kovalkan floating-fortress is a rare occurrence indeed as they spend most of their time either in port in Kovalka or out deep into the sea where they serve as floating colliers and naval bases for passing ships.

The Royal Army is cut from the same cloth as the royal marine corps and retains the small size and elite nature of their ancestor. The primary armament of Kovalkan infantry are single-shot breachloading rifles while officers are given heavy revolvers. Batteries of artillery and Gatling guns are generally deployed alongside infantry formations for supporting fire. There are few cavalry units in the Royal army and those that do exist are purely dragoons, dismounting from their mounts to engage the enemy with their Magazine fed lever action rifles and explosive grenades.

The Royal Aeronautics Corps is the youngest branch of the Kovalkan armed forces and is also the smallest branch. the HKE only has one Elan Battleship, the <span class=""bb-i"">Divine Right</span> which serves as the flagship of the Crown Princess and is rarely deployed. There are several smaller aerial squadrons who primarily exist to screen and perform reconnaissance for naval and land assets.</div></div></div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span></div>
The Free Republic is governed by directly elected representatives in the Grand Council made up of two hundred Councilors, who then elect an executive Small Council, made up of 12 heads of particular branches of the government. As there is no executive branch, the politics of the Small Council are cut-throat and frenzied, with councilors jockeying for power.
The Free Republic is a new nation, recently formed from rebellion against a monarchy that previously ruled the people of Acier. It is a nation with a unified culture, with a focus on individualism and personal achievement, and a history of industrial progress and a proud military tradition. The Free Republic is very overtly expansionist, demanding land and resources to fuel Progress, and to spread the freedoms within the nation to the rest of the world. The nation has a very small amount of Elan available to it, and has set its sights on other nation to supplement this natural weakness.
Liberty is the chief virtue of government in Acier. The people are beholden to no one but the government, and the State takes a very lax role in internal policies. There are almost no restrictions on industry, freedom of speech is guaranteed, voting is open to every citizen, and there is legal gender equality [the common person still believes in the dogma of women being subordinate to men, however] along with property rights and freedom of religion. The one area in which the freedom of the people is compromised is in the military: there is a three-year mandatory military service for every able-bodied man, with certain aspects of the government pushing to extend this requirement to women.
<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Economy</span></div>
The Free Republic is as capitalist as a nation can be. There are almost no restrictions on industrialists, many of whom have created vast manufacturing empires within the small borders of Acier. Taxes are very light, with the government relying on the private sector to service its people with services such as roads, utilities and healthcare. Trade is unrestricted, with merchants of all stripes visible in the bustling markets of the nation. Technological advancement is prized by the Republic, and in the military especially the Republic is one of the technological frontrunners. The drawback of such things is that there is massive income disparity, with the poorest citizens living in abject poverty in the dirty shanty towns outside the major cities, and the wealthy industrialists living in opulent decadence.

Opiates have begun to be mass produced by a few of the more avant-garde captains of industry, and the Grand Council is divided as to whether or not it should be banned. It would be the first non-military good to be banned by the government, and the balance of power changes daily, with most favouring its production.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Leaders:</span></div> 
The Small Council holds a great deal of power, having massive pull in the Grand Council as well as having the traditional powers of an executive branch. The Councilors are:

High Justice Francois Piat: Head Justice and representative of the Judiciary on the Small Council, Abel is a hard-line liberal, fighting tooth and nail against the last few jobs of the government, to in his mind “free the people from the Tyranny of State”

High Consul Louis Montefleur: In charge of foreign policy, he is an ardent expansionist. He dreams of massive tracts of land and resources to fuel Acier to international glory.

Field Marshal Petra Lysette: The only female member of the council, she is in command of the nation’s land armies and is a firebrand nationalist. A talented orator, she holds a position as a hero of the people, and the accompanying massive popularity.

Fleet Admiral Claude Bernadette: A new role on the council, he has become unpopular among his fellow councilors for his constant demand for a larger navy, which he sees as a severe deficiency in the nation’s national defense.

Lord Chancellor Arthur Gabler: A second-generation immigrant, he is in charge of the spending and collecting of the relatively small tax income of the nation. He is a close ally of Marshal Lysette, and supports the military more than other councilors would deem responsible

High Chamberlain Jean LaGarre: Speaker of the house and in charge of politics and bureaucracy, he is a traditional liberal deep in High Justice Piat’s camp, and strongly against the expansionist faction

Minister of Technology Gunther Farber: A new role, put in place just last election, he is in command of the national scientists, and plays the middle ground between the two major Councilar factions. His technological goals are focused on working around the severe lack of Elan in the nation, in both the private and military spheres.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span></div>
Important Locations:
Lutte: The Capital city of the Republic and the largest city by a fair margin, Lutte is a city clouded with the smoke of industry. It is the manufacturing centre of the nation, with factories sitting side by side with governmental building and palatial mansions, while in the slums the poorest of society fight tooth and nail for food, shelter and safety. 

Foirture: The major port of the nation and the second-largest city, Foiture is dominated by it massive market district, where items of every shape and size are traded for every coin under the sun. It has less industrial potential than Lutte, but is home to the small but quickly-expanding Grand Fleet, and sailors on shore leave are common sights.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview</span></div>
The people of Acier value family and their rights – freedom is enjoyed by all classes of society, and the people make the most of it. The Press is a very popular institution, with cheap pamphlets distributed to all walks of life detailing everything from foreign policy decisions to fictional adventures of heroism and romance. There is no state religion, but the vast majority of people are [to be addressed later: probably some shitty Christian expy]. Family is important to the people of Acier, and large family gatherings are very common on feast days or national holidays. Families rely on each other, and most families are governed informally by the patriarch, though that is not without numerous exceptions. Most of the people are highly patriotic, the nation being very new. Many desire expansion and greater glory for their nation.  Military service is very respected, and war heroes are rated on the same lines of fame as sporting legends and famous musicians or writers. Sports are also very common, especially among the rich, and inter-collegiate leagues are the largest venues for such competitions. Every citizen is required to own a weapon, and with the police being privately run under government oversight the average citizen defends this right before many others.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span></div>
The Army is the focus of the Republic, and it is where most of the money and manpower goes. Infantry doctrine has faced massive upheaval in the last few years, with jacketed rounds and smokeless powder making massed infantry combat pointless and horribly bloody. Infantry doctrine now focuses on small units of a few dozen of men working independently, a Koch machinegun attached to every squad. The average infantryman is equipped with a bolt-action rifle, 8x51mm rounds fed by a box magazine. The Dupont rifle replaced the earlier lever-action variants in the interest of prone-firing and extra reliability. Grenades are standard issue in every squad, and the general plan of attack against civilized nations features infantry charges prefaced by grenades and artillery strikes, covered by pre-set machinegun and mortar emplacements. The Army take the lessons of modern military thinkers very seriously, focusing on very mobile warfare around fortified positions, aiming to outmaneuver on the attack and interdict on the defense.
The officer corps is entirely professional soldiers, and so has a great deal of experience, fueling the army to push the envelope of combat doctrine, but the nature of a draft army is that many untested units will have a lack of real military knowledge. The sidearm for the army is the .45 Bisset revolver. 
The Artillery Corps is attached to the Army and is crucial to its success. Field artillery is a staple of Acian attacking and defensive strategy, air-burst shrapnel shells just now coming into use. The Artillery Corps’ newest responsibility is Air Defense, and their new anti-aircraft guns are designed to fix the severe lack of air power in the Republican military.

The Republic’s navy is no less professional, but significantly smaller. Despite the urging of the Fleet Admiral, the navy’s main jobs are protecting shipping from piracy and external threats, and safeguarding transport fleets for the Army. They have few battleships, several cruisers and a large number of destroyers, which rely on massed torpedo attacks to combat the floating Elan Fortresses of the other civilized nations.

The Republic’s Air Force is tiny, and there is no getting around it. They have two Elan-powered Flying Battleships, mostly for prestige. They are not intended for use against other civilized nations, but against southern Savages who do not possess anti-aircraft guns. The battleships are specifically designed to be able to be transported by sea, to reach the southern continent where their work can begin.</div></div></div>"

Supreme Commander Adrian Weiben, supreme commander of the Valkyrian Empire military and de facto leader of the country. Ruthless in action and thought, but extremely loyal to the Empire and Empress.
Tethys Zevos, Chief of Administration. The master of coin, policy, and bureaucracy, meaning he’s perpetually overworked and angry at everything. But for all his grousing he is also very good at what he does. Coups may happen, political tides may shake, technology can bring change, but Tethys will keep the Empire chugging along no matter what.
Important People: 
“The Tycoons” The five most powerful industrialists and businessmen in the Empire who built its foundations of economic and industrial power. While profit-seeking capitalists to the core, their interests presently align with that of the royalty and government in regards to the New World, and are pledging their assets for a cut of the take.

Cultural Overview:(What do your people enjoy? What do they hate? Religions or festivals of note? The more in depth the merrier) 

The Valkyrian Empire can be equally described as a nation of militants and a nation of consumerist hedonists. Its army is large and prestigious, with every man required to serve five years in the military starting no later than the age of 20. Women may volunteer, unless they have families to maintain.

For all its high militarism and nationalism though, the Empire also practices rather hedonistic social customs. Public baths, legal same-sex or polyamorous relationships, public arena games, conspicuous production and consumption of luxuries from across the continent, and a very active night-life that often crosses over into day-life. 

In short, Valkyries Work Hard, Fight Hard, then Play Very Hard.

Technology Overview: 
The Valkyrian Empire isn’t on the cutting edge of technology for the times, being slower to adopt Elan, airships, and latest-iteration steam engines due to its size and lags in spreading new technology across the whole empire. But for what last-generation technology they have, they produce and use in bulk to try and compensate for their disadvantages. For what they can’t, they try and import foreign designs and inventors.

Railroads have been the focus of two kings and a succession of military administrators, resulting in lines upon lines of heavy-gauge railroads spanning the Empire’s major cities and connecting its industries. Enabling fast transit of cargo and troops when and where needed. Usage as a passenger system is a more recent addition, and something they are still working on.

While not a major innovator in technology or steam engines, the Empire is remarkably advanced in policymaking, administration, and communications technology, due to the need to administer a sizable empire prompting bureaucrats to capitalize upon any means possible to ease the colossal task. The Empire was one of the first to adopt telegraph at large to supplement its chains of courier riders and still offers sizable rewards for any inventor of any country to further improve distance communication technology.

In a curious quirk of technological development, bicycles are popular in the empire due to the Royal Family’s current preference for bicycles over horse-riding. Which in turn resulted in a sudden spree of bicycle advancement, from well-sprung cycles for nobility to pendle in comfort, to six-person chain-gang cycles for transit of labor crews, and more recently folding bicycles for mobile infantry. Bicycles are a major export of the Empire despite its last-gen industries.


Military Overview: (Now here's the stuff we really want to get to. Go as nuts as you see fit)

The Valkyrian Military strives to stay abreast of the times, but the sheer size of the empire and its conscript-heavy armies make equipping the entire army with top-line weaponry a financial and logistical impossibility. Thus it is forced to manage its priorities of funding and support carefully.

The Cavalry Corps are the vanguard force of the Army. Well-equipped, well-trained, and led by aggressive and highly able leaders. Generations of breeding has yielded strong warhorses and meritous leaders. But whether they can stand up to the changing mechanizing battlefields of the future is beginning to come into question even among conservative generals, and they are gradually being moved to a flanking role as the infantry grow in primacy.

The Infantry Corps compose the bulk of the Valkyrian Army. More than three-fourths conscripts, they are seen as second-line troops more for garrisons and line-of-communications work than frontline fighting. With recent technological advances and the implementation of the income tax, efforts are underway to modernize the Infantry with automatic weapons, mortars, newfangled rockets, and better training for standing force elements. But so far efforts are slow and piecemeal due to the large size of the infantry.</div></div></div>"

<div class=""bb-center""><img src=""http://i.imgur.com/Zl9pYg5.jpg?1""/></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span> Lumenor is governed as a constitutional monarchy. The Kuunin, Lumenor's King, is a largely ceremonial figure, serving as a figurehead, a symbol of national authority, and a balance of power against the more democratic institutions of the Lumen state. Most real legislative power in Lumenor falls upon the Vanha Suuri, a unicameral legislature composed of a mixture of appointed civil servants from various aspects of the state apparatus, as well as elected representatives of the (male) citizenry. The Vanha Suuri is decidedly lacking in intrigue and excitement; corruption and other unscrupulous acts are strongly despised by the Lumen, and vigorously prosecuted when suspected to have occurred. The parliament also has a reputation for reactionary action, even among its more liberal members. Itself a product of ancient history, the Vanha Suuri and its members—called Vansuurs—are fiercely protective of the cultural and historical institutions of the Lumen state. Times change rapidly in Lumenor, however, and the possibility of the Vanha Suuri changing along with them grows ever more likely with each passing day.

The Vanha Suuri's parliamentary powers, unlike in most monarchies, precede the rise of Lumenor's Kuunins. It was the Vanha Suuri, in fact, that appointed Lumenor's first Kuunin, over a millenium before the current day. The Vanha Suuri's history lies in the history of the pagan Lairreen people, to whom the Vanha Suuri served a religious purpose as the echoing of the Gods. The people of the Lairreen tribes would select the most devout among them and gather them together in the precursor to the modern Hall of Elders to hear the desires of the Gods. It was such a convening, the very last that the Vanha Suuri ever held as a religious body, that resulted in the appointment of the first Kuunin. The Kuunin's purpose was to politically unite the Lairreen people, and to forge an army from them capable of casting back the Lansi, an invading people originating from the west. The Lansi were a strongly militaristic folk, descended from the same family lines as the people of modern day Acier. They were united under a powerful emperor, Soturi III, the grandson of a former Lansi chieftain who led his tribe to conquest against the other Lansi tribes, and in the process forged himself a powerful, centralized Lansi empire.

The Vanha Suuri and the Kuunin were ultimately unsuccessful in their attempts to cast back Soturi III's invasion. After a horrifically bloody struggle, the Lairreen eventually found themselves a subject people of the newly implanted Lansi. The Lansi, out of respect for the tenaciousness and ferocity of the Lairreen, and in an attempt to pacify the land and avoid future rebellion, came to adopt many of the Lairreen practices as their own, morphing them as necessary to accommodate their traditional Lansi practices. Soturi III adopted the title of 'Kuunin', and had it passed down by his sons over the following generations, as was the custom under the Lansi empire. In the decades and centuries that followed, the Lairreen and Lansi gradually merged into one cohesive people under the leadership of the Kuunin, merging together over the years into the Lumen of today. For its role in creating the title of Kuunin and mediating the Lansi takeover of Lairreen society, the Vanha Suuri is considered to be responsible for the creation of Lumenor.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span> Lumenor's economy is strongly centred around manufacturing. All manner of products, though especially those produced mostly or entirely from metals, are fashioned and assembled in the numerous factories dotting the industrial centres of the country's south. The economy of the north, meanwhile, is mostly focused on the production of the metals themselves. The mountains of northern Lumenor are abound with mines of varying sorts, and their bounty's extraction to fuel the industry of the south compromises most of the north's economic activity. Also of note in Lumenor's economy is the country's fiscal probity. Both cultural and legal measures contribute towards Lumenor's strong fiscal standing, and this monetary expertise has resulted in the emergence of a rapidly expanding financial sector in Lumenor's southern population centres.

The Kingdom of Lumenor is strongly protectionist, weary of growing overly dependent on foreign goods and services. Protectionist policy is a long-standing fact of life in Lumenor, and has over the years made a lasting cultural impact on the Lumen people. Lumen are distasteful towards the idea of purchasing goods from abroad, and buy locally whenever possible both because of the effect of government policy and simply out of habit. This trend towards mercantilism extends doubly to products arriving from colonial possessions; rather than merely being heavily taxed, import of resources from colonies on the southern continent is illegal. Export of domestic materials in Lumenor of unique or special value, such as Elan, is equally illegal.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Leader(s) and Important People</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Naavalor IX Kuunin;</span> Born Jarrd Eskven, Naavalor is Lumenor's current sovereign. A native of Pientila, Naavalor was born in the purple, and has been preened for leadership since his birth, fifty-two years ago. Naavalor took up the title of Kuunin after the death of his father, who was the longest reigning Kuunin in the country's history. He has one child, Yarnal Eskven, a son of age twenty, born to a wife who took ill and died shortly after her son was born. Jarrd is an old man who has long since been made bitter from his wife's death and his son's constant escapades. He doubts that he will ever live long enough to outmatch his illustrious father, and has taken it upon himself to outdo in accomplishment what he cannot outdo in longevity. Naavalor has colonial ambitions, and his desire to achieve prestige in this manner has resulted in his stepping increasingly outside of the bounds of his constitutional powers, to suppress naysayers of the Lumen Empire. Although intended to be apolitical, Naavalor's desire to be known in history backs as the man who brought Lumenor into the new age has resulted in his being an illicit supporter of the modernist factions within the Vanha Suuri since his ascension. 

<span class=""bb-i"">Maat Vinter;</span> Lumenor's Head of Government, and the leader of the Auld Stripe: the traditionalist faction of the Vanha Suuri. Maat's family line, the Vinters, are a leading industrialist family in Hoportti, Maat's place of birth. Members of their family have held office in the Vanha Suuri for hundreds of years, and they're heralded as the first family to bring the wonders of the Industrial Age to Lumenor. Maat has five children with his wife, Brigitte Vinter, who is a relative of the exiled royal family of Acier. The couple life in a manor in Hoportti, but own a second home in Pientila for Maat's work in the Hall of Elders, and a summer home in the mountains in Lumenor's north-east.

Maat's political party, the Auld Stripe, is the largest faction within the Vanha Suuri. The Auld Stripe is a long-standing formal alliance of social conservatives and other traditionalists. They strongly opposes Lumenor's entrance into colony-building, and voraciously defends Lumenor's protectionist policies, which incidentally keep industrialist Auld Stripes like the Vinters from having to compete with foreign enterprises on equal footing. The Auld Stripe is supported by the vast majority of the appointed seats in the Hall of Elders, 39 out of 50, signifying their support by most of the country's generals and lawmakers. Of the 150 seats in the Vanha Suuri which are elected, the Auld Stripe hold 60, giving them just over a third of the country's popular support. This discrepancy between support by appointed seats and by the electorate has long been criticized by modernists as a mechanical bias in favour of traditionalism.

<span class=""bb-i"">Tuuli Vanska;</span> The second most noteworthy politician in the Vanha Suuri, and the leader of 'Usikun', the largest of the modernist factions in Lumen politics. Tuuli is the founder of Usikun, which she formed in an explicit attempt to unite the modernist movement and remove the Auld Stripe from power. Her successes have been partial, at best. Though Usikun is the second largest party in the Vanha Suuri, it has failed to annex the other modernist parties, and is even divided from within. Various different elements from republicans to extremist monarchists find themselves together within Usikun, united together more or less by only one thing: a desire for serious change, in one way or another. The only policy which all members of Usikun support is ending the practice of granting high level civil servants appointed seats within the Vanha Suuri. That, and a general dislike towards the Auld Stripe, is the glue that keeps Usikun together.

Tuuli herself is an imperious woman, tall, and exuding an aura of calm. She is relentlessly confident, even in the face of stacked odds, and devotes herself entirely to her political work. This devotion has resulted in her becoming something of a social recluse; she has never married, and though she was born in a small village in the country's mountainous north-east, she has never been there since she first left for Pientila to pursue a career in politics. Tuuli is the first woman to achieve notable political office in the Vanha Suuri, and one of the changes she seeks to enact in the country is the expansion of rights for women.

<span class=""bb-i"">Sarko Voros;</span> A famous (some might say infamous) Lumen explorer. Sarko was born in the mountainous north-east of Lumenor, but left quickly upon reaching adulthood, seeking a new home as far removed from his old village as possible: the coastal metropolis of Hoporrti. It was in Hoporrti that Sarko began work as a merchant, establishing his business, ""Voroseskso"", as the premier vendor of exotic goods in Lumenor. Sarko's attempts at acquisition of rarer and rarer wares eventually led him to launch a large-scale exploratory expedition to the southern continent. Upon his return, Sarko told tales of a land untouched by modernization, where the rarest of all goods can be found in bountiful abundance. The Voroseskso expedition ignited a curiosity in the Lumen of what might lay in store for them in South Adara. This curiosity, however, has been tempered by the tentativeness of the Auld Stripe. Although Sarko's merchant fleet's activities are technically legal, as he is a Lumen citizen, and the goods he exchanges in Hoporrti were not purchased from any foreign state recognized by the Vanha Suuri, his quickly expanding trade networks are a threat to the dominance of the Auld Stripe's ideal of isolationism, and their Vansuurs' tight control over the Lumen economy. King Naavalor, arguing for the precise opposite of the Auld Stripe's demands for Vorosesko's abolition, has been in talks with Sarko to turn Vorosesko's southward trade missions into missions of colonization and territorial expansion.

<span class=""bb-i"">Televa Tikari;</span> A loyal ally of King Naavalor, and one of Lumenor's greatest foreign diplomats. Mr. Tikari was a man born into squalor in the slums of Pientila's south, and found himself completely without family before reaching adulthood. King Naavalor's illustrious father took Tikari in from the streets, and educated him in the ways of the statesmen, grooming him to become one of his finest and most dedicated aides. Upon Naavalor's assumption of power, Tikari's loyalties turned to him, and his actions to furthering his ambitions. Although he presents a calm and tactful presence, Tikari is devious man, and without emotion. He thinks nothing of doing all that is necessary to accomplish his goals, and strikes only when he is sure he is capable of delivering a fatal blow.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Pientila</span></span>

Lumenor's capital city, and home to the Hall of Elders (the Vanha Suuri's Chambers) and the Royal Residence of the Kuunin of Lumenor. Pientila is Lumenor's second largest city, and is situated along the north coast of Lake Vanha, in the nation's south. The modern day city is built around a historic core that dates back to before the foundation of Lumenor. Many historical sites such as churches and ancient fortresses and villas have been preserved in Pientila, including an imposing medieval wall that encloses the historic city centre. It is this centre, the Historic Quarter, which is home to the Kuunin's Palace and the Vanha Suuri. Outside of the Historic Quarter, the city is notable for being home to a great many public parks and low-density housing projects. Many of Pientila's poorer residents live in the city's extreme south, which is home to a number of branch plants developed by industrial enterprises based out of Hoporrti. 

Pientila is an ancient city, its founding preceding the arrival of the Lansi into Lumenor by several hundred years. The settlement, merely a large town at the time of the Lansi Conquest, was the place where the Vanha Suuri submitted themselves to Soturi III, ending the conquest with a decisive Lansi victory over the Lairreen. The Vanha Suuri's surrender was encouraged by threats made by Soturi III against the town should they persist in their defiance; if the Vanha Suuri did not surrender, Soturi III had threatened to burn down the settlement entirely, and slaughter every single one of its residents. The surrender of the First Vanha Suuri avoided this fate. Instead, it was only the Vanha Suuri themselves who were burned, their Hall of Elders set ablaze with the Vansuur locked inside by the Lansi victors. On the ashes of the Old Hall of Elders, Soturi III built a new Hall, in the Lansi style, which has stood (albeit with extensive renovations) to the modern day.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Hoporrti</span></span>

The largest city, main trade port and industrial and financial centre of Lumenor. Hoporrti rests along Lumenor's southern coast, at the tip of the Kast peninsula. Originally a small fishing village, Hoporrti experienced an exponential population boom upon the arrival of the Second Industrial Revolution, and its rapid outward expansion led to it administratively annexing numerous other neighbouring towns, which now serve as neighbourhoods of Hoporrti. In significant contrast to the historical buildings and wide open spaces found in Pientila and most of Lumenor's small settlements, Hoporrti is both densely urbanized and starkly modern. The city is home to start-of-the-art infrastructure to facilitate public transportation—including an underground railway system—and its tall, gleaming buildings and polished streets act as a statement to the rest of the world of the wonders of the modern age. Hoporrti downtown core is home to most of Lumenor's rapidly growing finance sector, and the rest of city is largely what gives Lumenor its industrial might: Hoporrti's industrial enterprises are a Goliath of Adara's manufacturing industry, and their factories pump out products twelve hours a day, earning vast wealth for their owners, and a fair slice of the pie of prosperity for the hard workers that man them. The Hoporrti Docks, from which the metropolis originated, are home to much of Lumenor's naval presence, and also serve a role as a major commercial shipping centre and trade area.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span> The Lumen are an orderly and just people, famed for their calmness and their somewhat superfluous formality. Crime and other instruments of chaos are rare sights throughout the domain of the Lumen, and the Lumen love of order permeates even into their art and leisure. Lumen enjoy highly regimented sports, and are masters of artistic styles demanding strong adherence to boundaries, and representing realistic concepts. 

Lumen are also infamously introverted. Social events, though not by any means rare, and almost never spontaneous. Public displays of emotion are typically restricted to special events, and are more often that not displays of patriotism. The state itself, in particular the Kuunin, plays an important role in Lumen national identity. The state existed, as a union of the Lairreen and Lansi, before the Lumen did themselves. Another, relatively unique facet of Lumen culture is its secularity. The traditional faith of the Lumen's precursor peoples was extinguished long ago, and although Lumenor permits free religious practice, the vast majority of the Lumen are irreligious.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview</span></span>

On the whole, Lumenor's technological development could be best described as 'average'. Domestic Lumen ingenuity is counteracted by protectionist policy and a more than healthy degree of technological conservatism, preventing foreign technologies from being rapidly adopted. The exception to this rule is the city of Hoporrti, which is home to the very latest in infrastructural developments and other instruments of civilian import. This is due mostly to the extremely high focus placed on R&amp;D by Hoporrti's ruling industrialist families. The need to preserve isolation from foreign economies is matched by the need to keep up to date with them, ensuring that much of the profits earned by Hoporrti's (and thus Lumenor's) most wealthy go back towards furthering technological advancement.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span></span>

Lumenor's tradition of isolationism demands for a strong defensive-oriented military. Land fortresses, either newly constructed or newly renovated mark the eastern and western borders of the Lumen homeland. The Lumen Royal Navy, though lacking in experience at long reach operations, excels in defensive actions, and patrols the Lumen northern and southern coasts as rigorously as the Lumen army casts eyes and aims rifles over the land. The importance of military self-reliance is not lost on the Lumen, and all Lumen military ships, weapons, ammunition and supplies are all conceived and manufactured within the confines of the state. As with civilian technological advancements, this results in Lumenor being unreceptive to foreign inventions. Unlike with civilian technological advancements, however, the militaries of Lumenor's neighbours likely would not be fond of sharing their technological secrets with foreign states in the first place, making isolationism more effective in the military sphere than in the civilian sphere.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Members of the Noritburo shortly after session.</span></div>
The Autonomous Union of Northern States proclaims itself as a 'Revolutionary Worker's Republic' based on the doctrine of Communalism. The Central Committee and the Noritburo are the highest offices of power within the Union and hold absolute power over the economy and military. 

The Union also follows the doctrines of 'Tao Thought' which was founded by famous, and deceased, Southern Revolutionary 'Tao-Lin-Zong'. Tao Thought describes both the revolutionary state and the revolutionary army being one in the same on all accounts, meaning that with each shot fired at the enemy, the state of the revolution grows stronger. This, of course, means that a large portion of both the Central Committee and the Noritburo being made of military figures and former 'red-guards', which has led to anti-communalists decrying the state as 'A Military Dictatorship'. To counter-act these claims, the formation of 12 'People's States' were founded across the Union, each state having a People's Committee of it's own with one or two members being within the Noritburo. The issue remains, however, that the People's Committees lack almost any power in changing laws or regulations within their own states, making them nearly void to the power of the Central Committee.

In matters of Law, the Union formed The Revolutionary People's Red Guard, or simply the Red Guard, shortly after it's foundation to ensure that reactionaries and all others who supported a reformation of the Northern monarchy would be dispatched or sent to justice within the People's Committees. It is merely rumor by counter-revolutionaries that these trials in the Committee are 'show-trials' and that more often than not enemies of the state are executed or sent to 'Northern Prison Camps'. 

<div class=""bb-h2"">Economy</div>
The North-Eastern lands have been plagued with arctic temperatures and blizzard, the more spiritual say that there is even a snow deity that rules the land and brings down his wrath upon it. Regardless of these claims, the North is far from an economically stable region, with famine being a constant fear in the hearts of all. This has led to the previous North-Eastern Kings taking a strong laissez-faire approach to economics and especially trade. For ages western and southern fat-cats became rich by selling the North food in return for their precious and valuable wood supply. Labourers and Millers would spend all their lives working for men who never knew their names and lived far south or far west in a cozy manor while the Northerners worked through the cold to feed their families.

The Revolutionary Party of the North saw an end to all of it. No longer would a fisher fish for anyone in the South, or a Miller chop wood for anyone but his comrades. In a swift move shortly after taking power, the Northern land-owners and fat-cats were taken into custody, their 'southern-inspired' manors razed and given back to the small farmers, fishers, and millers. Collective Farms and Fisheries became mandatory and all industries in the North were swiftly nationalized and centralized into the Revolutionary Union of the North, a state created union made specifically for the northern labourer.

<span class=""bb-i"">A Northern Lumber-Mill shortly after the collectivization of Northern industries.</span></div>

Of course, with these swift actions in ending the cursed 'invisible hand', a great amount of luxury goods were lost and many traders were forced from their ports with all of their goods quickly taken by the state. Investors in Northern 'modernization' lost hundreds upon thousands of coin in the brutal actions of the new revolutionary nation... But life went on nonetheless. The North-East was no longer safe for trade, and protectionism became the norm. The vast arctic fisheries known as 'The Iron Stream' became a solitary entity for the revolutionary state, and now supplies much of the 'metropolitan' Northern cities with fish for the people. The southern mills, famous for their cold and hardened northern wood, now create only for the people.

A series of small islands that look like stepping stones that could connect the western half of the state with the eastern half. Koscol is the political capitol of The AUNS and serves as home to the Revolutionary Party, the Central Committee, and of course Premier Starling himself. The City's greatest defense against foreign invaders remains to be the fact that, besides for the eastern front, it is entirely surrounded by the eastern inner-sea.

The average Northern family holds a very common and simple lifestyle, filled with wooden and steel work-tools and manually operated labour. However, due to the difficult nature of ice-fishing, the creation of steam-drills is a national beauty of Communalist technological growth.

The Liberation Army of The AUNS relies entirely on the doctrine of People's War as described by Southern revolutionary Tao-Lin-Zong. Instead of using the steel war-machines that became common-place with the development of steam technology, the Liberation Army relies on the vast northern population to create a mighty army of peasants and farmers. A revolutionary state requires a revolutionary people's army, and the NLA is that army. In terms of weaponry, the NLA is known for it's mass-built 'Rogin M51' bolt action rifle as the main weapon of the armed forces, with officers receiving a 'Sagant 85' revolver and a steel officer's saber for close-combat.

While the north frowns on the steam operated war-machines of the South, calling them 'cowards cover', these machines still find their place within the Liberation Army, especially within the 'Northern Bird Brigade'. The Bird Brigade is a prestigious branch of the Northern Liberation Army and serves as an early form of an aerial combat force. Hulking warships based largely on models of their water-based counterparts travel the Northern skies in War-games on a regular basis. One can only imagine the feeling of lying in ones trench, only to see the great sky-bombards of the Union coming down upon their reactionary foes.

Flag: <img src=""http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/g/gb-s-lewis.gif""/>
Government: Appropriations are controlled in the name of the Grand Duke by a unicameral, directly elected popular vote Parliament, as are taxes and generally every facet of government but the military, where HGDH The Grand Duke exercises control in organization and deployment. He also may submit declarations of war to the parliament which may only be rejected with a two thirds vote.

Economy: As a liberal economy, Resia focuses on the financial and investment sectors, but most of all on maritime shipping. The country is heavily industrialized, but limited population and limited land area prevents it from being THE industrial powerhouse.

As for natural resources, the government is experimenting with offshore oil drilling on account of coal supplies being not that numerous. 

For food, fishing in the gigantic Resian territorial waters is a tremendous part of the economy and helps mitigate low agricultural yields.

Leader(s): 
~Grand Duke Vilhem I
~Prime Minister Lord Lloyd Smith.
~Admiral of The Fleet and Chief of the Admirality, Count Charles of Tayer.
~The Chief of the General Staff and Field Marshal, Margrave George of the Eastern Isles. 

Desired Map location: http://imgur.com/8iIbWIF


Important Locations: 
~Streymoy: the metropolitan home island and also the largest.
~Lohna, the beautiful and gigantic capital city, and site of most financial activity. 
~Westmark and Eastmark: The furthest west island and furthest east islands. Their precarious positions are not unaware to the government. While Eastmark is close enough to fit niceky under the iron umbrella of the mighty Resian Navy, Westmark is too far to station a significant portion of the navy. Accordingly, it is effectively a garrison state. Press freedoms are limited, every citizen is required to own a gun, and much of the developed land by the coast is used for impressive coastal  fortifications, and the beach is covered in obstacles for an amphibious assault. The army maintains a very large Westmark garrison.

Cultural Overview: The Resians have always been a free people, not withstanding they have not always had a means of legitimately participating in government. The widely distributed nature of the island kingdom meant rebels could revolt and rapidly secure the islands, forcing the government to have to make opposed amphibious landings against a well-armed people who have likely commandeered coastal cannon in the easy places to land. Thus, the Grand Dukes generally avoided incurring the wrath of his people when possible and reasonable demands were agreed to.

They are a hardworking, industrious, traditional and conformist people. A lack of government force has meant that those who defy social norms are only censured by an appropriate degree of ostracism. 

Technology Overview: With limited government interference, the society of Resia has always been on the forefront of technology, whether the Resians have liked it or not. Better means of production, discovered in Resia or learned on voyages to other lands, are rapidly adopted by the market's invisible hand. 

Military Overview: 

By far, the predominant military arm is the navy.

Crucial to the navy's strength is the means by which the armor is made. It is a revolutionary process, and an intensely guarded state secret. The armor, a unique steel mixture with Carbon (cemented by gas cementation on only the outward facing side of the armor) Nickel, Manganese, Silicon, Magnesium, and Sulphur is heated on only one side while the other side is buried in clay. Once 40% of the plate is at the needed temperature for face hardening, the plate is dragged out of the furnace and into an enormous vat of water to ensure uniform cooling. The resultant armor is very hard on the exposed face, but not very prone to spalling or cracking. Given that GCMK2 (Gas Cementation Mark 2) armor is a very new, bleeding edge technology, it is only on the newest ships. Armor on the older ships, the GCMK1 armor is more prone to cracking and spalling, but will resist ship weapons just as well. Reserve ships have the 15% less effective CC (Coal Cementation) armor.

Airships:

Ever the skeptics, the General staff questioned the cost effectiveness of a purely Elan based, pure flying ship. A hybrid airship/boat with a change of propellers (the engines cannot tolerate high RPMs, so a very large propeller is needed in the air) could travel by air or sea, land just about anywhere, and would have a longer range. This is the basis of the Falcon class, an interceptor/scout designed to conserve Elan.  

~Falcon Class Air Destroyer (60): Displacement: 236 metric tons. 
Armor: None 
Vertical Propulsion: 34 meter diameter spherical rigid helium balloon. 
Sea speed: 31 knots Airspeed: Theoretically capable of insanely faster speeds, speeds of 35 knots are about the max unless in the middle of combat due to the intense windspeeds making walking on the deck difficult. When everyone is at batttlestations, sheltered from the winds, speeds of 60 knots are not unheard of. Armament:  -1 QF 12 pounder

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">The Ossman Empire</span></span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government</span>
Power in the empire is split between the Achmod, a family of generals who hold all of the military power, and the emperor, who acts as a religious and political leader. Vassals hold inherited lands and provide military service and homage to the Achmod, much like feudal Europe. The Ossmanese government further divides feudal power between the Achmod and the eleven provincial domains throughout the country, who enjoy a high degree of sovereignty and are allowed an independent administration of their own people without the emperor's interference in exchange as well for loyalty to the Achmod, who're solely responsible for foreign relations and national security. Both the Achmod and other nobility, such as those in charge of each province, each have their own bureaucracies, policies, and territories, along with independent taxation.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy</span>
The majority of the Ossmanese population are nothing more than cattle breeders who sell their products to the numerous trading ports along the Ossmanese coast, where goods arrive from both the country's farthest stretches and the Old World. These lively coastlines have in response spawned many large and beautiful cities, each with their own markets, tanneries, and mills, and act as centers trade, agriculture, and artisanry for each province. The northernmost towns are renowned for their of wine, tobacco, and fruit cultivation while in the south, oriental rugs, weapons, silk, and honey see extensive production.

The slave trade in captured natives, immigrants, and prisoners of war is one of the major sources of income for the Daichin and similar nobility. In this process, government-appointed raiding parties go out and capture the many foreign peasants living in the country who're attracted to the freedom offered by the expansive empty steppes located in the center of the country. This has contributed to a hatred for the Achmod among the local populations that transcends political or military concerns.

<span class=""bb-b"">Location</span>
<a href=""http://i.imgur.com/2ygIrmU.jpg"">Here.</a>
<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">Cermakye</span>, on the north Ossmanese coast, is the largest city in the empire, constituting the country's economic, cultural, and historical heart. With a population of nearly 875,000, the city forms the largest urban agglomeration in the New World. The city's vast size is coterminous with the Cermakye Province, of which the city is the administrative capital.

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview</span>
Ossmanese culture is known for its extensive ethnic and cultural diversity. The black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives, though their cultural traditions survive most strongly. However, due to the rise of trade as a worthwhile market, the Ossmanese black culture has increasingly urbanised, thereby leading to a slight decline in traditional culture. 

In addition to the eleven or so official languages of the empire, speakers of Old World tongues are becoming increasingly common, especially among those who live near or on the coast. Likewise, members of middle class, who're predominantly Old World immigrants but whose ranks include growing numbers of native Ossmanese, have lifestyles similar in many respects to, as you might've guessed, that of people found in the Old World. Members of the middle class often study and work abroad for greater exposure to the markets of both continents.

In general, all racial and ethnic groups in the Ossman Empire have long-standing beliefs concerning gender roles, and most are based on the premise that women are less powerful, and thereby less important, than men. Most traditional social organisations are male centred and male dominated. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview</span> 
As a result of many years of isolationist reforms, technology in the empire is largely reliant on horses and considerably lacking behind that of the Old World. Whatever few guns, especially those produced in the last decade or so, are reserved entirely for either the Achmod or the emperor, and usually serve only to represent their owners' power. Anything else of such nature is reserved for the 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview</span>
The organization of the Ossmanese military retains many of the features that have sustained it for centuries. The core of the army is still reliant on the elite Savaschi infantry, whose composition and role remain nearly identical to that of their centuries-old prototypes. The Savaschi are trained as swordsmen, and some regiments have recently begun to act as defenders of naval units. Savaschi regiments are largely self-sufficient organisations, and even include their own medical and logistic services in order to better sustain themselves on their usually independent missions.  Alongside the Savaschi, the bulk of the Ossmanese armies are made up of Ahmet regiments – enlisted light infantry given basic training and equipment, and which form the mass manpower of the both the emperor's armies and the Achmod's bodyguards. 

Along with the regular Ossmanese forces, the emperor's military is also comprised of numerous irregular divisions from the empire's extremes, such as the steppes' nomads, who fight more or less as guerrilla forces. Ossmanese commanders allow such troops a high degree of autonomy, being well aware that such groups work best without interference from the considerably bulkier and consequently disorderly national forces.</div></div></div>"

The Chee Nation

<span class=""bb-b"">Flag:</span>
<img src=""https://flag-designer.appspot.com/gwtflags/SvgFileService?d=0&amp;c1=5&amp;c2=5&amp;c3=5&amp;o=0&amp;c4=4&amp;s=3&amp;c5=6""/>
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Brief:</span>The Chee Nation does not have a set leader of its territories, but rather, is run on a patchwork of local chieftains.

<span class=""bb-b"">Long:</span> The Chee Nation is a military and defensive pact formed between 36 tribes inhabiting the barren region known locally as Odase (Oh-das-y). As a result, it in theory has 36 leaders, all of whom hold sway over their own individual tribal territories. 

However, recent conflict with North Adara has forced the tribes of Odase to form a coalition, and with it, an Elder Council. The Elder Council is more or a less a political body formed by the 36 chieftains, and functions democratically. To call it efficient would be a travesty to the word, as it is only convened annually, and deals only with matters deemed pressing at the time. 

This leaves big room for crises to develop, especially regarding incursions from the North. If a chieftain wishes to rally his neighbours against foreign aggression, he can end up waiting 12 months for the chance to ask, by which time his lands have been taken and he’s facing the executioner’s block.

Naturally, this means the tribes have an unmoderated amount of freedom. So, other than adhering to a few Elder Council policies and declarations every twelve months, they’re free to act as they please. Tribes will unify against aggressors, or sometimes, take the opportunity to remove a rival from their ranks by siding with aforementioned aggressors. They will trade with who they want, and there’s little to be done if a tribe wishes to sell its lands to a northern mining company.

<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span>

 The Chee Peoples are barterers; they have no use for coinage. Typically, a man creates or procures an item of value, and trades it for life’s necessities. These goods range from herbal medicines, furs, foods, metal craft, wood work and basic raw materials, to foreign devices and technology. 

With recent North aggression, firearms and more modern equipment has been outlawed in 26 of the clans. The remaining ten however, all on the borderlands, allow any goods to pass between their borders. This has resulted in a black market of forbidden merchandise, and a slow decline into modernisation.

The real value of the Chee Peolples however, unbeknown to them, is the vast Elan reserves many of their tribal dwellings sit upon. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Important People:</span> 

Chieftain Marak Tor – Chieftain of the Tor Tribe

Marak is a great warrior of middle years, and respected by many of the Elder Council. He advocates War against the North, and holds great sway over the northern tribes. 

Chieftain Hanan Sechs – Chieftain of the Sechs Tribe

Hanan Sechs is like Marak, a great warrior of much renown, but is more cautious. He wishes careful modernisation, that his people may benefit from the North, but not in a way that would jeopardise their freedom. 

Chieftain Ferod Kalan – Chieftain of the Kalan Tribe

Ferod sees a war with the North as the End Times. He is a religious type, praying constantly to the Sun for deliverance. He seeks peace between peoples more than anything, but shuns technology completely, describing it as evil. 

Chieftainess Alaya Fer – Chieftainess of the Fer Tribe.

Alaya is the only female leader of the 36 tribes, and this is because she has much love for murder. Were the North not on the Chee Nation’s doorstep, then she’d be on everyone else’s. Her braves outnumber those of all other tribes, and their fighting skill is beyond repute. She stands with Marak, and believes the South could win a war, if it chose to unify.

<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations:</span>


 The Chee have no permanent settlements, and are nomadic in nature.  However, there are the Sun Steps, which is a small mountain range appearing naturally as a staircase. It is said that he, or she, who climbs them becomes one with the Sun Spirit. It is here that the tribes gather, during the annual Elder Council.


<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>

The Chee are a multitude of cultures and values, with no dominant form of either. Depending on your location, laws and customs change rapidly.

Some of the Chee tribes are warlike, putting the ideals of the warrior before all else; others are peaceful, keeping to themselves and only straying from their paths in times of great distress. 

In some tribes, women are baby factories, and treated as such. In others, they are almost equal with men, and can pursue their own interests. 

Regardless of their varying customs and beliefs, all are united in Sun Worship. The Sun, called various names, but usually ‘Zu’, is praised across the board. All tribes believe the Sun to be a living spirit, responsible for the creation of all things, and their chief benefactor.

The Chee pay tribute to the Sun in various ways. Child sacrifice is not uncommon, but outlawed in some of the more progressive tribes. Other tributes take the form of oxen, crops and mass prayer. Temples to Zu are established throughout the Chee nation, and are gathering points for roaming tribes. 

Attitudes towards the North vary also. Some of the Chee have embraced the North’s technology, and guns are beginning to frequent among their weaponry. Steam engines are slowly replacing oxen, and some permanent settlements are starting to take shape. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span> 

10 of the Chee tribes have access to, and use, third-rate Northern technology, and are open to further trade. These tribes have put their few rifles and steam engines to great use, but in the grand scheme of things, their activities are very much a minority.

Generally speaking, the Chee people are almost prehistoric. The horse is the greatest thing they could call a vehicle, and weaponry is still predominantly made from flint – although bronze and iron are beginning to make an emergence. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>

The Chee People are skilled hunters and excellent survivors in a barren wasteland that knows no mercy. However, they are reluctant warriors. 

If at war, the Chee Nation can rally a million braves to its cause – this accounts for every able bodied man in the population. Owing to their nomadic nature, this mobilisation is a quick process, and sustainable indefinitely if the women are put to work. This is known as a War Path, but such a unity is rare, and now almost impossible to achieve. Still, one should be careful of giving the Chee the excuse they need to put their warriors under a single flag.

Typically, Chee braves are horse-mounted troops, relying on speed and manoeuvrability to harass and ambush opponents. The bow is their primary weapon, however axes and short swords form their melee backups. 

A force of Chee usually assault their opponents with volleys of arrows, before retiring when they have no more ammunition… only to return the following day re-stocked. They repeat this process, until their aggressor either decides to withdrawal, or is weakened to a point where a frontal assault becomes an option.</div></div></div></div>"

Flag: <img src=""http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/606/venicearmystandard.png""/> 
Government: A classic monarchy mixed with a bit of venice, the king, or Doge in this case, rules, but he has a small council voted by the people that help him make decisions.
Economy: The country specializes in trade, which is obvious. They trade precious metals, such as gold, platinum, and diamond, but also have a large fishing industry. They are merchant conservatives.
Leader(s): 
Doge Negotiatori IV
Archdoge Negotiatori V
General Proelium
Queen Puella the 2nd
Important People:

Desired Map location: <img src=""http://i.imgur.com/KbhWMRE.jpg""/>
Important Locations: 
Urbs vitae: The city of life, some say. The city located at the bottom of the peninsula, Urbs, as the people in the Kingdom call it, is the largest trade area in the empire, commanding trade from all over the known world. Large navies are also docked in the harbors there, waiting to pounce on anyone attempting to Destroy the mighty kingdom

Cædem: Also known as the fortress, is the capital. It is surrounded by walls, and only the rich and royal may live there. It is on one of the remote islands in the east of the nation. A giant castle lies on top of a hill in the city, and that is where the Doge, Archdoge, and Queen live.
Cultural Overview:
The People of Mercatura are a happy bunch, preferring diplomacy of war. Mercaturaians follow the religion of Pietas, a monotheistic religion where they praise an almighty creator for everything. They speak Mercatrian, (It is latin lol), a language that has been spread across sea to sea from the trade.
Technology Overview: Mercatura focuses on anything that can help them make money, from easier ways to mine to faster ships, Mercatura attempts to build them. They have special ships, called celeritate daemonia, that have the ability to travel with the winds help and can even move at a decent speed against the wind. They also have created and mixed multiple types of ore, including the most expensive thing Mercatura owns, Datimondum, a mix between platinum and diamond. Mercaturaians found a way to melt down and mix diamonds, and now use it to there advantage. They keep the process of it secret, making sure no other country has the ability. 
Military Overview: 
Oceanus Reges (Navy): The Oceanus Reges is the navy of the nation, it is one of the most advanced on the planet, with ships that move fast and can carry large amount of troops to transport and cannons. When at war, the nation fights like pirates, ransacking other ships and stealing there women and goods and killing there men.

Reges Terrae (Army): The Reges Terrae is the army of the nation, it is not as advanced as the navy, but it can still hold its own against most. They hold early flintlock rifles and bayonets, which are standard grade dipped in Datimondum tips for the knives on the guns.</div>"

Also, some consistency in the military would be good but not necessary. Why is the navy ""The Ocean of Kings"", and the Army ""The Kings of the Earth""?

Also, you cannot melt down diamonds, then they would not be diamonds but just some random carbon. Platinum is a fucking terrible metal for warfare, seeing as it is expensive as shit and malleable AF, so why would you tip bayonets with it. Flintlocks are 250 years out of date at least, depending on where you look, and it is implied that you think we are using ships of the line, seeing as you say your ships ""carry many cannon"".

In practice the Dictatorship has remained in the hands of the most powerful clan for as long as they have been able to inspire loyalty and fear. The Dictatorship was previously held for two stable centuries by the reactionary Odros Clan, who were overthrown by the Nagath Clan and its allies in a recent civil war known as the Necessary Reorientation. Vaos daz Nagath is a modernizer, a deft political operator, and a ruthless warlord.

He is working with the Foremost Dictator to modernize the Consanguinity's economy and infrastructure and attract foreign investment and trade. Barrow &amp; White wields immense influence among the elites of the otherwise famously xenophobic Consanguinity, and Fysh is referred to by many in the Old World as the 'King of the Drathans'. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Desired Map location:</span> [Southwest corner of southern continent, with the Chee to the north.]

<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations:</span>

Zar Dratha: Capital city, hugely populated trade center near the coast, situated on the Ovos River. Zar Dratha has long outgrown its crumbling walls, with the upper castes living in the Old City, a dense conglomeration of ancient pagodas and towers dominated by the Dictator's Fortress, while the Outworks are a sprawl of clay and plaster dwellings stretching out from the Ovos river in all directions, eventually petering out into rice paddies and fungus beds. Non-Drathans are confined to the city's famous Foreign Quarter, an overcrowded center of the world-wide black market, filled with ex-patriots, exiles and lowlifes from every corner of the Old World.

Zar Pellos

Zar Aryon

Zar Uln: major port city on the isle of Uln, controlled by the powerful Sygo Clan. Zar Uln is the second most populated and the most 'modernized' city in the Consanguinity, with a large foreign presence and Barrow &amp; White factories springing up among its pagodas and clay-brick slums. Outside the metropolis, mining and drilling operations are being set up by Barrow &amp; White personal amid the terrace farms and wayside shrines of the countryside.

Palace of the Moon and Stars

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>

The Consanguinity is composed primarily of Drathans, a sub-species of humanity physiologically altered by its prolonged exposure to the large liquefied elan deposits just beneath the surface of their ancestral lands. Elan, called 'Ichor' by the Drathans, is omnipresent in their society- used in medicine, liquors, and to power various ingenious mechanical devices. The local water supply is heavily contaminated with elan residue, and most non-Drathans find the taste alarming, though they can drink it without harm.

Drathans, in contrast to other humans, have dusky, bluish skin of a variety of hues and generally have dark eyes and hair. The products of an ancient culture, they tend to be conservative and highly xenophobic. 

Drathan religion is a messy combination of folk ancestral worship, astrological veneration of the moon and stars as deities, and sophisticated philosophy and metaphysics translated in various ways into religious parlance. Drathan worship, therefore, is not particularly unified nor consistent, especially given the steep class divides within their society: local shrines to ancestral figures and historical heroes and sages do the country side, while in larger towns and cities elaborate temple-based liturgies to the celestial deities take place for the moneyed castes. At universities, a sophisticated and ancient tradition of speculation is encouraged on the nature of causality, rationality, and the divine. 

Drathan society is highly stratified, with the vast majority of the population living as serfs cultivating crop paddies, fungus farms, and livestock. The warrior-aristocracy generally occupy castles and fortified estates on their land holdings.

The Consanguinity's territories range from arid to tropical, with dense jungles and mangroves along the coast, and local cultures and practices vary across the extensive dominions governed by the Foremost Dictator.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span> 

While very few of the richest and most powerful members of the Consanguinity possess some Old World technology, the Dratha as a whole are technologically backwards. While they possess sophisticated [medieval and renaissance era] machinery, building techniques and agricultural methods, they almost totally lack the mass-productive steam-technology that characterizes the Old World. For the most part the conservative Dratha view such innovations with suspicion and hostility. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>

The Consanguinity can call a very large number of soldiers to arms. Unfortunately, those arms mostly consist of spears, swords, crossbows and flintlocks. Centuries of internecine clan warfare and battles with the Chee have made the Drathans into formidable warriors, and the Foremost Dictator commands a sizable professional fighting force permanently under arms. 

The Foremost Dictator is scrambling to import modern weapons and train his men in their use before the Old World powers descend on his elan-rich nation, but the lack of an industrial base and native hostility to dishonorable innovations makes even most modest modernization efforts difficult.

The Dratha have a fairly large navy of cannon-armed junks and galleons, almost totally useless against modern navies.</div></div></div>"

Oh awesome, I'm not alone! 

That's a green light for the collaborative history. The Chee Nation is young, but the tribes that form it are ancient, so there would have been a fair amount of interaction between the two peoples. I'm going to go ahead and say the Chee is an ethnicity, based mostly in the Odase region (my territory, basically). I think I'll go and make that clear in my sheet.

From what I've read, the Dratha are the more advanced, rooted and mightier of the two. Perhaps we could start off hostile, with the Chee having been pushed from the south slowly by Dratha, driving them into conflict with the northern territories. Then once civilised man starts abusing our lands and peoples, we can talk about uniting. Nothing says ""fear me"" like a multitude of semi-cannibalistic natives going on a War Path.</div>"

Great! Yeah, since both ethnicities and their cultures are ancient, I'm sure the Dratha and Chee have been intermittently at each other's throats for centuries- as well as trade partners and perhaps sometime allies. If the Dratha did push the Chee northwards, it likely would have been a slow process over many centuries. Likewise, I'm sure the Chee in their time have invaded Drathan lands and there's been plenty of wars fought between the two, and internecine wars in which the other set of tribes/clans have gotten involved. 

Since the Chee are sun worshippers, I made the Drathan religion center around astrology, the moon and the stars, so I figure they could have some kind of old rivalry about the 'people of the sun' and the 'people of the moon' or the 'people of day' and the 'sons of the night' or w/e we come up with. 

It's likely the current Drathan dictator/warlord would want to make peace/ally with the Chee, since he recognizes the increasing threat of foreign incursion. Of course, few others among the Dratha do, and the Chee probably dont, so there's plenty of room for early game warfare.</div>"

No problem. 

I like that last idea very much. There'll be no end of bad blood between our peoples, and it'll add to the fun of trying to establish common ground before the North invades and murders us. 

I like what you've done with the religious side of things. Man, our people are gonna hate each other from the get go. 

Also, referring to <span class=""bb-i"">""if the Dratha did push the Chee northwards, it likely would have been a slow process over many centuries.""</span>, this is what I meant. The Dratha are the more ""civilised"", with permanent settlements and I'm assuming an expanding population, correct? MY peoples by contrast are nomadic, travelling from one area to the next. Their population would be relatively small in comparison, (at the moment I'm predicting around 4 million, which includes children and the infirm.) Naturally, when it came to competition for resources, I imagine the Dratha would have had the upper hand. So over the centuries, the Chee would have gradually moved further north.</div>"

Yes. I imagine the Drathans will think of the Chee (somewhat correctly) as cultureless barbarians, and the Chee will think of the Drathans as cranky, conservative and closeminded bigots (correctly).

The Drathans are very very settled and sedentary peoples, but one thing to note is that they are more of a feudal confederation of clan-states than a unitary nation, and inter-clan war is a very common thing in the Consanguinity. I didnt give too much detail on the different clan fathers, but I should add those to the NS. 

Anyway, all of that is to say there have probably been many times when internal chaos has allowed to the more mobile Chee the upper hand against the Drathans, and different clans/tribes may have formed complex configurations alliances over the years. Anyway, building up that history ICly should be a bunch of fun.</div>"

If anyone else wants to do it, go ahead. MAP WAR I say.

@Flagg

So, lets iron out some framework. 

- Chee and Dratha have had their fair share of war in the past, but these conflicts have mostly been isolated to the locales, and have been rather small affairs. 

- Dratha numerical and technological superiority has driven the Chee northwards over the space of say, 500 years. This has left many ethnic Chee stuck in Dratha's northern territories. Rather than slaves, let's just say people of Chee descent face a bit of racism, and are treated by some as second class citizens? Enough to irk the Chee Nation, but not enough for it to want to war over.

- Sun Worshippers vs the Sons of Night; although there is a certain level of mutual respect for opposing Gods, which has so far prevented any full scale holy war. 

That looks good to me, but I'm happy to compromise. To be honest, I can work with anything, so add/change what you want/need to :)</div>"

The only things I would add:

- slavery is definitely permitted in <span class=""bb-i"">some</span> parts of the Consanguinity, and some Chee are likely enslaved along with other non-Drathan peoples as well as some Drathans themselves (losers in local wars, etc).

If you're totally against any Chee being enslaved, no problem.

- It would be cool for there to have been like a Chee Attila in distant ages, who conquered much of the Dratha and who is still sortve a boogeyman/national hero in the southern continent, depending on one's persuasion. Perhaps this was the full scale holy war you mentioned? Like have one semi-mythical great war between the peoples, perhaps with the Chee winning spectacular victories, and then the history since has been one of slow Drathan success in pushing them back north.

 The Kingdom of the Red Dragon 
<span class=""bb-b"">Flag:</span>
The Head and shoulders of a Golden Dragon on a red backdrop with twin dragon-like silver serpents coiling around it.  
<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span>
The Kingdom of the Red Dragon is not actually a Kingdom, not since the fall of the empire with the same name. The Government is in fact a Republic with the elected leader being elected from the male siblings of the previous ruler. The Red Council is made of representatives that largely hail from the powerful merchant families and guilds. While the Red Council is officially elected by the people, all that means is that those with the biggest purses get in and those that don't make space for themselves. The Red Council holds all the power of the Kingdom but the Dracos Inquisitos, the 'ruler', is the only one allowed to declare war and can force a three month trade embargo on any family or nation without having to consult the Red Council, after the time frame he must have their approval to continue it. The Council can, however, replace the Dracos Inquisitos with one of his male siblings if they have a 95% majority in the favor of a single sibling, thus keeping the moderate balance of power and allowing them to both keep the other in check.
Structure:
Top: Dracos Inquisitos
Next: Red Tradracos (Minister of trade), Red Diplomacist (Minister of Foreign affairs effectively) and Red Guild-master (Minister of Guilds)
Below: All the other 60 members of the Council split unevenly between the three ministries

To counter the purely mercantile Power of the Red Council there is also the Dracos Imperium, generally lead by a relative of the Inquisitos purely due to the Dracos Imperials wanting to keep in favor with the ruling family so they may remain unhindered in their work. The Imperium is the religious arm of the nation and holds the power of the commoner levels of society even if most of its members have help their positions over generations as it is a very tradition orientated form. The Imperium has two tasks, that of spreading the faith of the kingdom and that of moderation over the Religion and its restrictions, the Imperium being able to ban or restrict such things as forms of technology and set the Laws of the Religion, which even the Red Council dare not go against, and vote for which tribes or clans, etc. are suitable for the Kingdom to make dealings with in the eyes of the 'Red Dragon' their diety with the Dracos Imperlius (leader of the Imperium) holding the power to stop any vote in the Imperium.
<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span>
The Kingdom of the Red Dragon is effectively a merchant republic and so the vast bulk of its economy comes from trade with the north Andarans as they are the only 'northern' power that has effectively set up shop on the southern continent. This allows them to hold a monopoly over trade between the two continents after having gained the trust of most of the local tribes, nations and other such powers. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader(s):</span>
Nicoli Vacialtali - Dracos Iquisitos
Serge Vacialtali - Dracos Imperlius

<span class=""bb-b"">Important People:</span>
Flavius Medici - Imperial Admiral
Giuseppe Calcalius - Red Tradracos
Lucius Medici - Red Diplomacist
Pasquale Oridentalis - Red Guild-Master

<span class=""bb-b"">Desired Map location:</span>
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Map Location"" type=""button"">Map Location [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""https://i.imgur.com/vvH6UTZ.jpg""/></div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations:</span>
<span class=""bb-u"">The City of Dracos</span>, A city entirely floating in the bay, the Capital hosts floating docks stretching as far as the eye can see getting luxuries and necessities from, and sending luxuries to, the northern continent. The City of Dracos holds the Red Council and its center is dominated by the 'District of Trade', effective an excuse to keep all the rich away from the poor and allow those who hold the power a way of avoiding those they 'serve' the center of this district stands the Red Palace, where the Ruling Family (currently Vacialtali) reside and the Red council meets.
<span class=""bb-u"">The Gate to the South</span>, The 'Gateway' to the city but almost a city in its own right. In an attempt to keep the populance of the Dracos 'pure' this fortified menace keep those who don't appear to be 'pure' (not of the North) out of the city but, to keep relations with the numerous tribes around the Kingdom, not to actually restrict those who have good reason to be there (they get an armed 'guard' to keep them 'safe'). Because of its strategic importance as the gateway to the Capital it is the main barracks for the Kingdoms small military.
<span class=""bb-u"">The Temple of Dracos</span>, situated on the edge of a steep cliff overlooking the bay this temple has been restored from a local ruined temple and is the home of the Dracos Imperium. Weapons are strictly not allowed and so the temple is protected by a significant portion of the army, but even they are restricted from entering the temple if they have a weapon equiped. 
<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span>
The Kingdom holds two 'feast-avals' a year, one is held on the Inquisitos' birthday with the other being held on 'Dark Dragon Night' which coincides with the winter solstice. On these events the commoners celebrate with national holidays, often spending time with their families and the upper classes are all invited to attend a Feast in the palace where some of the most exotic foods known to man are consumed.  There are also a whole host of religious occasions throughout the year, each and every one providing a national day of rest to all who feel they can afford to take it and a bit of upped pay for those who can't. The other main festival of the Kingdom is held biannually and is the Floating of the Dragons, its foundation is in the praise and worship of their god the 'Red Dragon' but its main use is to show of the navy to the nearby tribes to act as a deterrent to any hostilities from them, all the tribal leaders are invited to the palace to watch from its upper floors while the majority of the festivities are held outside the city with large expanses of agricultural land being turned into a large party where money is spent, wares are traded and many drunks are fined, providing more wealth to the Kingdoms overflowing coffers. The main event of the 'Floating of the Dragons' is the massive show of their navy with a glorified fishing boat being set alight and guided by other ships to make sure it sets nothing on fire and sinks in the ocean.
<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span>
The Kingdom has all of the finest technology that money can buy but develop little to none of it themselves, purchasing any technology from the old world they feel can make their lives easier, safer or more profitable. The Kingdom relies almost completely on trade, with food being supplied by the more trusting tribes and large stores of grain being imported from the north to keep the city stockpiled in the case of a war, be it with the north or the south. Outside of the city the technology, other then that of the army, is fairly basic with very little setting the Kingdoms own farmers apart from that of the tribes surrounding it.
<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span>
The Kingdoms army is very well equipped but hosts an outdated organisational system, with each Guild hosting its own troops with the Dracos Inquisitos fielding one man for every one the guilds field so as to keep a Guild from taking over by force. 
Their navy is also well equipped but, with the distances concerned the ships hulls are also pretty outdated, with newer guns and things being 'upgraded' from the ones existing since very few northern countries are willing to sell their newest ship designs, even to the highest bidder, therefor they must make do with slightly older warships (even if there trade-ships are the finest money can buy). 
Their airborne forces consist of a small number of weakly hulled elan powered airships with powerful guns that spend most of their life floating on water rather then air as the distances and costs involved in the elan supplies are currently not considered worth it by the Red Council and the Imperial Admiral, the Imperial Admiral being the sole chosen by the Inquisitos to lead his Navy and, more recently, airborne forces, while allowing the Inquisitos to command his own land forces.</div></div></div>"

Suppose a hypothetical battleship has a mass of a thousand metric tons. It must be capable of ascent at high speed to be worth anything, BUT since pressurization does not exist, the max altitude is around 8000 feet and unless the crew wants really nasty baurotrama (too rapid depressurization), the ship must rise at a rate no faster than 2.53 meters per second (Research into cabin altitude pressure rate of change gives 500 FPM as industry standard). 

My research and calculations yielded very interesting results:

1. Gaining alttitude becomes essentially no problem for Elan equipped ships assuming Elan counteracts gravity 100%. In order to accelerate at 0.14 m/s^2 at sea level, a 1000000 kilogram ship only needs an 14 meter radius sphere of helium. My original calculations called for a situation in which the sphere was carried externally, so that factors in the weight if the bottom half of the sphere was armored in one inch of steel.
2. On the other hand, steering is an ENORMOUS engineering challenge. There are essentially no good ways to generate thrust in the 1870s. So suppose our gigagram ship is basically a Pearl Class cruiser in the air. I couldn't find its height, but it sufficiently illustrates my purposes to use its draft (waterline to keel) times its length as though it were a rectangle in cross section. That gives it a windward cross section of about 1060 m^2. 

According to this website:
http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/wind-load-d_1775.html

A 62.8 mph wind would exert 710200 newtons per second. That means you would have to fire one BL 12 main gun round every 2.5 seconds to counter the momentum change wrought by the wind. Meaning, ships should be spherical to reduce the impact of the wind. 

I am thinking of other means by which to mitigate the problem posed by winds. Nothing is forthcoming, however. No way to sail against the wind.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">In-between the vast smoking pillars of industrial communalism and the 'ever united' working class cultural propaganda rested a multitude of small hovels. Now, the state boasted greatly about their 100% employment and housing programs. However, the conditions of these employments and housings were a different issue. Ivlon was the owner of this specific hovel, one that had the privilege of also housing the only radio for the residence of the small community. At noon, the scheduled break-hour for all industrial workers in Torlargrad, the small hovel would quickly fill with worn industrial labourers, and Ivlon would settle down the grumbling men and turn the radio on for the news...

""Greetings Comrades! Today the entire Union cheers for Comrade-Premier Starlings ever growing Elan-Based Northern Birds! The Northern Birds remain the pride in the skies for the working man and the Northern lands. In fact, after the grand display performed by the Northern Bird Brigade for Comrade-Premier Starling, a composition by the Working Men's Choir and Orchestra was performed about our glorious Union airmen! Glory to Comrade Starling! Glory to the Revolutionary Party! Glory to the Central Committee, and glory to the Union!""

Perhaps it was the bottles of potato-based alcohol being passed about the space, or perhaps it was simply the booming patriotism and praise that came from the Reporter's voice, but the small hovel became deafening with whoops and hollers praising the North and their revolution. Ivlon knew, of course, that this was nothing more than the muddled minds of tired workers showing the only emotion they could still create in their minds... Blind Patriotism.

Yeah, laugh at my bicycle infantry. Its funny how the presence of bicycles can turn the march of ten thousand soldiers into an almost humorous thing. I readily admit that.

But they also have a large number of tactical, operational, and strategic advantages in this pre-mechanized army setting. At bare minimum allowing troops to march longer, faster, and harder for equivalent exertion. That, and I think they are cool. Which is always a factor in a steampunk setting.</div>"

It's okay. Just so long as everyone knows what to do, once the big guy has okayed them. Sorry if I sound like a demanding little slag, it's just I've done this before, and it irks me when I get some guy saying ""BUT SO AND SO HASN'T BEEN ACCEPTED"", causing me to sigh heavily. And I don't like to sigh heavily, no sir. Then there's the whole trawling through 10 pages of OOC to find the sheets. Yeah, getting too old for all that running about.


Unless someone else wants to go do it instead. You don't need to be an artist; people just need to know roughly where everyone is.

I think that angry guy who keeps yelling at seaguls covered most the bases.

On the topic of Airships and Anti-air fire, my take on it is pretty much that by and large they are armored like the naval warships they emulate (though not to the same degree of course. an Elan Battleship, even a very large one, likely isn't quite above that of an armored cruiser on the sea in terms of armor) and so that means that Flak artillery is generally out of the question. What that would mean is that AA guns need to be accurate enough to actually hit them dead-on and powerful enough to punch through the ship's armor. Then also there comes the issue of a proper high angle carriage for the guns that is easy to deploy in the field. A moving target is hard enough to hit with artillery of the time, a moving target in the air raises its own host of concerns. 

Tl;DR: Airships can be countered by dedicated AA batteries, but that doesn't mean said batteries are an automatic death sentence.</div>"

Oh, so instead of buying them, you're thinking they send people over to observe and learn, or just engage in espionage, then manufacture them themselves? That makes sense to a point, but how long have machine-guns or mortars been around? When was the last major advance in Service Rifle technology? I am just skeptical of the Red Dragon having top-of-the-line things, as they describe themselves to have.

1. You can be involved in supply if you want
2. The Kingdom of the Red Dragon was once a northern nation (well a colony of one) but when the empire (it was a colony of) fell it became a merchant republic, selling southern luxuries to the north in return for northern luxuries, knowledge and armaments
3. Red Dragon only really 'produce' food but even food they buy a lot from the south in return for northern luxuries

Basically think of Red Dragon almost like venice, they are at the end of such a valuable trade route that money just flows through them, with large amounts spilling into the kingdom itself.
P.S. The Main population of the Red Dragon (especially the upper classes) still look down on southern tribes as lesser but their economically focused minds see their value, therefor the populance are still effectively 'pure' in that they almost all have DNA originating from the northern continent,</div>"

You know, we kinda have antigravity tech, and we all know that steam engines here are a bajillion times better than they are IRL. We just gave ourselves a means of propulsion good enough to power a normal plane, so we can actually have fighters.

Well, it is said that ""the combustion of Elan gives off a form of anti-gravity lift"".

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Holy Vanjanan Empire (WIP)"" type=""button"">Holy Vanjanan Empire (WIP) [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">Nation Name: Holy Vanjanan Empire
Flag: (Image or description is acceptable) 
Government: 
""The King should answer to none, so why does the Church expect me to answer to them?""
-King Kalle XII, ""Behovet av Regeln""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire is an Absolute Monarchy, where the oldest remaining child of the monarch is heir to the throne. The monarch holds all power, and disobeying an order from them is the exact same thing as treason. Whether or not that charge of treason results in death is up to the monarch, as they can override any decision made by anyone else in the empire. The philosophy behind this is that by making the will of the Empire the will of its monarch, corruption and internal competition would be eliminated, thus creating a stronger nation. Whether or not this was correct can be debated, but the outcome of the Great Nordsjön War is usually referenced as proof of the government's effectiveness.

The monarch is also in complete control of the Empire's religion, a tradition that started with the current King Kalle XII Storen. Vanjana had long been entrenched in their religious beliefs, with the monarch always answering to the church. Kalle, however, refused to be crowned by the church. Instead, he claimed to answer to none other than God himself. After the Great Nordsjön War, the church found it hard to disagree.

Kalle Storen himself is famous for his genius, both political and military, as he proved during the Great Nordsjön War. His is known to be cruel to anyone who opposes him, to the point that he has many executed for daring to question the simplest of decisions. He holds a firm belief that to oppose him is to oppose God. However, this also means that to follow his orders is to serve God, and thus he is known to greatly reward those that do not question him. Because of his belief that his will is that of God, he will almost never change his mind, and refuses to accept that anything he does could possibly be bad. However, there is more to him than his arrogance, and he has been known to change his mind if someone gives him an <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> good reason to. These people always earn his respect, as finding a reason good enough to make him change his mind is nigh impossible.

Economy: 
""If a nation is a steamship, then the economy is the boiler that gives it the power to move forward.""
-King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire has a strong tradition of capitalism, going back to long before its rise to power. The industrialization meshed well with their philosophy of using every centimeter for some kind of production. They adopted the new steam-powered machines with great enthusiasm, quickly building up factories and train routes in an effort to increase their production ability. Subsidies are provided for new factories, which now form the backbone of the Vanjanan Economy. With the aristocracy eliminated during the absolutist reforms of King Gustav II Storen, the bourgeoisie quickly became the leaders of the Vanjanan economy, establishing themselves as the owner of all the factories, railroads, and shipping companies.

The Holy Vanjanan Empire exports almost exclusively manufactured goods of all types, which they produce in great quantity. They do export raw materials, but even the most common export (Lumber) is an almost trivial percentage of total export profits. Elan is abundant in the northernmost part of Vanjana, and the captains of industry quickly developed it in order to export it to other nations. However, the King stepped in and took control of all Elan mines, securing the supply for the government and outlawing any unauthorized exports. In the present, Vanjana does not export any Elan, and the only possible way to import Vanjanan Elan is through negotiating a trade agreement with the King himself. Given the vast Elan reserves, such a trade agreement would surely be beneficial.

At that young age, he turned a defensive war into an offensive war and conquered two nations in the Great Nordsjön War. He is beloved by his followers, who believe him to be the voice of God's will. His arrogance is famous as is his cruelty to his enemies. If you follow him, he will love you. If you oppose him, he will hate you. There are very few, if any, things and people he is neutral towards.

During the Great Nordsjön War, he took command of the Vanjanan armies and crushed the nations of Nordsted and Varmjord in a series of miraculous Vanjanan victories. This earned him the respect of the church and the love of his people, but he wasn't done yet. He cemented his rule in Nordsted through political maneuvering, making the people see him as a liberator instead of a conqueror. In Varmjord, he decimated any rebels that would dare rise up, keeping his rule safe simply out of fear that he was invincible.</div></div>

Joining the Navy to utilize her skills as a former Merchant Captain, she rose through the ranks relatively quickly, reaching Admiral by her late 30s. Since then, she has always remained in the Navy. When the first Elan warships came into use, she was asked to become an Admiral in the newly minted Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps. She turned down this offer, saying ""Left and right is already hard enough, I don't need up and down to deal with too"".

She led the forces of the Holy Vanjanan Empire against those of Varmland in the Great Nordsjön War, decimating their superior Navy with what she referred to as ""A tenth wit and the rest the will of God"". She has a great deal of respect for the King, but having reached her position before his Reign, she likes to remind everyone that her position has nothing to do with that respect (something she believes few other military leaders can say, especially those in the Airborne Navy).</div></div>

He is in the mid fifties, and once he built the first Vanjanan airship, he dedicated his life to the advancement of aerial technology. When the King demanded that all Elan mines be given to him, Mathias complied without protest, earning him the respect of the King. Since he had been the first Vanjanan to utilize Elan for flight, the King gave him control of the Elan mines, telling him to find a way to use the material in the military. Being a patriot, he agreed to these terms, becoming Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps.

Spending his time on creating formations and maneuvers from scratch for an entirely new battlefield, he became the father of Vanjanan air combat, with his strategies becoming the backbone of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps. During the Varmland Rebellion, the Holy Vanjanan Air Corps was tested for the first time at the battle of Hjemsted. The King's camp had come under attack from all sides by rebels, while the majority of his troops were out on patrol. A telegram was sent to Mathias, who immediately launched his fleet and rushed to help. Using the air-to-ground weapons on his airships, he surprised the rebels and decimated their forces, saving the King. However, he has still never engaged in real air-to-air combat, as the Holy Vanjanan Empire has remained surprisingly peaceful since the Great Nordsjön War.</div></div>

Due to her family's occupation, she get to see plenty of it, being brought in to in the mines every once in a while. She caught on quickly to the operation of steam engines, and often operated the mine's steam lift just to learn more about it. Over time, she became well-known for being good with steam engines, even being sent to other mining towns to fix problems with their own steam engines. When she was only 19, everyone in the Nordsted mines knew that if Helmi Lisbet couldn't get your machinery working, then you wouldn't be able to find anyone that could in all of Adara.

When the mines were taken by the King, none of the miners really noticed a difference. They were still mining Elan, and still had no say in where it went, so it didn't matter who gave them their money as long as they got it. However, Helmi's life was entirely changed by it. Mathias Holger, now Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps, visited a small mining town in order to track her down. She was upgrading their steam lift to meet newer standards when Mathias approached her. Having heard of her skill with steam engines, he asked her if she was willing to donate her expertise to the Airborne Corps. She eagerly accepted, overjoyed with the opportunity to fly. Mathias had not underestimated her, and at only 24 years old, she became known as the best engineer in the Airborne Corps. She is currently stationed on the <span class=""bb-i"">Helig Vind</span>, the flagship of the Airborne Corps.</div></div>

Important Locations:
""Our cities are thriving, our fortresses are impenetrable, and our monuments stand tall. Never before has the North seen such glory.""
--King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

Heligastaden: The capital of Vanjana, this city is both a bustling port city and a center of industry, a thick cloud of smog constantly hanging in the sky. The classes are highly visible here, with the rich living right on the coast and the housing getting progressively worse as one journey's further inland. Since the factories are far from the rich, the city seems relatively clean from the coast. However, venturing too far from the docks will land you in a smog-filled, gang-run hell.

Oövervinnligafästning: The center of all Vanjanan military operations, this is a massive citadel on Vanjana's coast that contains facilities for all four military branches. It is connected via telegram to all other military installations, able to command any force, anywhere in Vanjana. Its defenses are certainly not trivial, with a division of Vanjana's best troops stationed there at all times and many of Vanjana's Naval fleets calling it home. It is where the main Elan Ship fleet is stationed as well, and has a dedicated AA system to support them in the event of an aerial attack. It is said that even if the cities of Vanjana are reduced to rubble, Oövervinnligafästning will still be standing.

Palatsavdenlord: The royal palace, located in the countryside near Heligastaden. It was built quite recently by King Kalle XII himself, as he had come to hate the smog of the city. It is famous for its extravagance, which the King has many times asserted is only to impress diplomats, insisting that he would have rather spent the money on something more practical. Whatever he claims, it is still true that the palace is a perfect example of badly allocated funds. Funnily enough, with the constant expansion of industry, the King had to officially order that the land around the palace be kept rural so as to keep the smog away.

Vanjana: The central part of the nation situated in-between Varmland and Nordsted, this is the location of the capital, royal palace, and Oövervinnligafästning. It is the seat of the Empire, and its inhabitants are by far the most loyal. Industry is abundant here, as the Vanjanan Kingdom that became the Holy Vanjanan Empire was quick to embrace the industrial revolution.

Nordsted: The norther part of the Empire, this is a territory conquered fifteen years ago in the Great Nordsjön War. It is a frozen and mountainous land with many deposits of resources such as iron, coal, lumber, and Elan. It is were the majority of the Empire's resources come from, and tends to be cooperative with the Imperial government thanks to Kalle XII's political maneuvering convincing them that he was liberating them from a corrupt government. 

Varmland: The southern part of the Empire, which is across the Lägre Nordsjön and borders Rhinland. It is by far the most rebellious, though every attempt at freeing themselves from Vanjanan rule has been met with failure. They are kept in line only with fear, and most inhabitants of this land are simple farmers, with no way to get effective weapons. They provide most of the food to support Vanjana and Nordsted, but are nonetheless treated as second-class citizens due to their rebelliousness.

Government: 
""The King should answer to none, so why does the Church expect me to answer to them?""
-King Kalle XII, ""Behovet av Regeln""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire is an Absolute Monarchy, where the oldest remaining child of the monarch is heir to the throne. The monarch holds all power, and disobeying an order from them is the exact same thing as treason. Whether or not that charge of treason results in death is up to the monarch, as they can override any decision made by anyone else in the empire. The philosophy behind this is that by making the will of the Empire the will of its monarch, corruption and internal competition would be eliminated, thus creating a stronger nation. Whether or not this was correct can be debated, but the outcome of the Great Nordsjön War is usually referenced as proof of the government's effectiveness.

The monarch is also in complete control of the Empire's religion, a tradition that started with the current King Kalle XII Storen. Vanjana had long been entrenched in their religious beliefs, with the monarch always answering to the church. Kalle, however, refused to be crowned by the church. Instead, he claimed to answer to none other than God himself. After the Great Nordsjön War, the church found it hard to disagree.

Kalle Storen himself is famous for his genius, both political and military, as he proved during the Great Nordsjön War. His is known to be cruel to anyone who opposes him, to the point that he has many executed for daring to question the simplest of decisions. He holds a firm belief that to oppose him is to oppose the Goddess. However, this also means that to follow his orders is to serve the Goddess, and thus he is known to greatly reward those that do not question him. Because of his belief that his will is that of the Goddess, he will almost never change his mind, and refuses to accept that anything he does could possibly be bad. However, there is more to him than his arrogance, and he has been known to change his mind if someone gives him an <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> good reason to. These people always earn his respect, as finding a reason good enough to make him change his mind is nigh impossible.

Economy: 
""If a nation is a steamship, then the economy is the boiler that gives it the power to move forward.""
-King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

The Holy Vanjanan Empire has a strong tradition of capitalism, going back to long before its rise to power. The industrialization meshed well with their philosophy of using every centimeter for some kind of production. They adopted the new steam-powered machines with great enthusiasm, quickly building up factories and train routes in an effort to increase their production ability. Subsidies are provided for new factories, which now form the backbone of the Vanjanan Economy. With the aristocracy eliminated during the absolutist reforms of King Gustav II Storen, the bourgeoisie quickly became the leaders of the Vanjanan economy, establishing themselves as the owner of all the factories, railroads, and shipping companies.

The Holy Vanjanan Empire exports almost exclusively manufactured goods of all types, which they produce in great quantity. They do export raw materials, but even the most common export (Lumber) is an almost trivial percentage of total export profits. Elan is abundant in the northernmost part of Vanjana, and the captains of industry quickly developed it in order to export it to other nations. However, the King stepped in and took control of all Elan mines, securing the supply for the government and outlawing any unauthorized exports. In the present, Vanjana does not export any Elan, and the only possible way to import Vanjanan Elan is through negotiating a trade agreement with the King himself. Given the vast Elan reserves, such a trade agreement would surely be beneficial.

She has a great deal of respect for the King, but having reached her position before his Reign, she likes to remind everyone that her position has nothing to do with that respect (something she believes few other military leaders can say, especially those in the Airborne Navy).</div></div>

He is in the mid fifties, and once he built the first Vanjanan airship, he dedicated his life to the advancement of aerial technology. When the King demanded that all Elan mines be given to him, Mathias complied without protest, earning him the respect of the King. Since he had been the first Vanjanan to utilize Elan for flight, the King gave him control of the Elan mines, telling him to find a way to use the material in the military. Being a patriot, he agreed to these terms, becoming Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps.

Spending his time on creating formations and maneuvers from scratch for an entirely new battlefield, he became the father of Vanjanan air combat, with his strategies becoming the backbone of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps. During the Varmland Rebellion, the Holy Vanjanan Air Corps was tested for the first time at the battle of Hjemsted. The King's camp had come under attack from all sides by rebels, while the majority of his troops were out on patrol. A telegram was sent to Mathias, who immediately launched his fleet and rushed to help. Using the air-to-ground weapons on his airships, he surprised the rebels and decimated their forces, saving the King. However, he has still never engaged in real air-to-air combat, as the Holy Vanjanan Empire has remained surprisingly peaceful since the Great Nordsjön War.</div></div>

Due to her family's occupation, she get to see plenty of it, being brought in to in the mines every once in a while. She caught on quickly to the operation of steam engines, and often operated the mine's steam lift just to learn more about it. Over time, she became well-known for being good with steam engines, even being sent to other mining towns to fix problems with their own steam engines. When she was only 19, everyone in the Nordsted mines knew that if Helmi Lisbet couldn't get your machinery working, then you wouldn't be able to find anyone that could in all of Adara.

When the mines were taken by the King, none of the miners really noticed a difference. They were still mining Elan, and still had no say in where it went, so it didn't matter who gave them their money as long as they got it. However, Helmi's life was entirely changed by it. Mathias Holger, now Fleet Admiral of the Holy Vanjanan Airborne Corps, visited a small mining town in order to track her down. She was upgrading their steam lift to meet newer standards when Mathias approached her. Having heard of her skill with steam engines, he asked her if she was willing to donate her expertise to the Airborne Corps. She eagerly accepted, overjoyed with the opportunity to fly. Mathias had not underestimated her, and at only 24 years old, she became known as the best engineer in the Airborne Corps.

People often fake their own death in order to join his army, being brought to one of his hideouts through a complex series of safehouses and forgotten roads. There are other rebel groups, but his is the most well funded, with rumors saying that he even has a naval force. However, he hasn't forgotten the Airborne Corps that defeated him, and is now obsessed with getting Elan to build his own airships.

There is little known about the man himself, but it is a well known fact that he despises Kalle XII. He sees him as a manipulative and power-hungry tyrant who gains loyalty through word instead of action. Despite being a royal, he is a Communalist and is greatly inspired by the A.U.N.S, and has many times vowed to create a Communalist state if he ever succeeds in securing Varmland's freedom. Since it seems to be the only choice for the people of Varmland, most of them now find themselves becoming Communalists.</div></div>

Important Locations:
""Our cities are thriving, our fortresses are impenetrable, and our monuments stand tall. Never before has the North seen such glory.""
--King Kalle XII, ""En Arbetare är Värt""

Heligastaden: The capital of Vanjana, this city is both a bustling port city and a center of industry, a thick cloud of smog constantly hanging in the sky. The classes are highly visible here, with the rich living right on the coast and the housing getting progressively worse as one journey's further inland. Since the factories are far from the rich, the city seems relatively clean from the coast. However, venturing too far from the docks will land you in a smog-filled, gang-run hell.

Oövervinnligafästning: The center of all Vanjanan military operations, this is a massive citadel on Vanjana's coast that contains facilities for all four military branches. It is connected via telegram to all other military installations, able to command any force, anywhere in Vanjana. Its defenses are certainly not trivial, with a division of Vanjana's best troops stationed there at all times and many of Vanjana's Naval fleets calling it home. It is where the main Elan Ship fleet is stationed as well, and has a dedicated AA system to support them in the event of an aerial attack. It is said that even if the cities of Vanjana are reduced to rubble, Oövervinnligafästning will still be standing.

Palatsavdenlord: The royal palace, located in the countryside near Heligastaden. It was built quite recently by King Kalle XII himself, as he had come to hate the smog of the city. It is famous for its extravagance, which the King has many times asserted is only to impress diplomats, insisting that he would have rather spent the money on something more practical. Whatever he claims, it is still true that the palace is a perfect example of badly allocated funds. Funnily enough, with the constant expansion of industry, the King had to officially order that the land around the palace be kept rural so as to keep the smog away.

Vanjana: The central part of the nation situated in-between Varmland and Nordsted, this is the location of the capital, royal palace, and Oövervinnligafästning. It is the seat of the Empire, and its inhabitants are by far the most loyal. Industry is abundant here, as the Vanjanan Kingdom that became the Holy Vanjanan Empire was quick to embrace the industrial revolution.

Nordsted: The norther part of the Empire, this is a territory conquered fifteen years ago in the Great Nordsjön War. It is a frozen and mountainous land with many deposits of resources such as iron, coal, lumber, and Elan. It is were the majority of the Empire's resources come from, and tends to be cooperative with the Imperial government thanks to Kalle XII's political maneuvering convincing them that he was liberating them from a corrupt government. 

Varmland: The southern part of the Empire, which is across the Lägre Nordsjön and borders Rhinland. It is by far the most rebellious, though every attempt at freeing themselves from Vanjanan rule has been met with failure. They are kept in line only with fear, and most inhabitants of this land are simple farmers, with no way to get effective weapons. They provide most of the food to support Vanjana and Nordsted, but are nonetheless treated as second-class citizens due to their rebelliousness.

Cultural Overview: The people of Vanjana proper come in two types: The extremely rich and the extremely poor. Almost everyone lives in a city, and all cities have clear class separations. The rich live in the middle of the city, and as you go further out, the buildings get more rundown and covered is soot from the factories. Sadly, there is no sign of this changing, as even the poor workers are content with it. They have a ""There's no point in trying"" attitude towards change, and settle for their meager wages and constant bombardment of smoke. While these poor men, women, and children slowly kill themselves in the smog-filled hellhole of the outer city, the rich throw extravagant parties in the inner city, not caring at all whether their workers live or die so long as they get their profits. Even in the hell in which they live, the poor can find the time for fun, and it is not uncommon to see people of all ages playing various sports during off-hours.

In Nordsted, the same society as Vanjana proper continues until a point at which the hills end and the mountains begin. Past that point, there are no rich or poor, only people. They may be employed by the rich of Vanjana and the King himself, but the rich rarely come to the mines, and thus they live a much better life than the poor of Vanjana proper. The only steam-powered machines in the mountains are mining lifts, which don't cause nearly enough pollution to create the hellish conditions seen in the cities. Those in the mining towns are famous for their ""Festival av Frihet"", which is an annual festival celebrating the day Nordsted was conquered by Vanjana. They see that day as their day of liberation, as the mines were formerly harassed by bandits until the Vanjanan military wiped them out. Even the rich in the cities allow their workers to travel to the festival, as doing so gets them in well with the King, who obviously likes the fact that the festival exists.

In Varmland, there are few cities, and most of the land is dotted with farms. It holds the vast majority of Vanjanan food production, as Vanjana proper and Nordsted have little arable land. Even more so than Nordsted, its people are free from the tyranny of the rich, with each farm being independent of any larger organization. Despite their relative freedom, they are the most rebellious, still holding on to their nationality. However, very few will publicly display their ideas, as the freedom only extends to those who do not oppose the King. The Vanjanan military puts down any revolts, and the people of Varmland live not in fear of the rich, but in fear of the King.

The dominant religion in the Holy Vanjanan Empire is ""Aätt av Atjärnan Ljus"", and its followers are known as ""Soldater av Stjärnan Ljus"". They believe that all the universe is in a constant struggle between good and evil, and that there are an infinite number of gods and goddesses constantly battling on each side in order to secure victory. They believe that the stars are worlds just like Adara, some of which are populated by mortals, and others which are wastelands created from the endless war. It is believed that all mortals were created by goddesses (and only goddesses) on both sides to do battle for them. As such, it is an incredibly violent religion, known for seeing anyone who refuses to convert as a mortal created by an evil goddess.

The Soldater av Stjärnan Ljus worship one goddess in particular, who they simply call ""The Goddess"". She is believed to be the goddess that created the good humans, and is said to grant her power to only the best of people. King Kalle XII claims to be one of these people, going so far as to say that he is the avatar of The Goddess' will. There are many Monks and Nuns who have spent their entire lives devoted to worshipping the Goddess, hoping to be chosen to gain her power in their next life.

There are multiple languages in the Holy Vanjanan Empire, but the most used is Vanjanani (Similar to Swedish). Ancient Vanjanani is used in the anthem, however, and most know at least those words. The currency is the Fyrapoängstjärnamynt (Often shortened to Frya). There are quarter Frya coins, half Frya coins, one Frya coins, two Frya coins, four Frya coins, eight Frya coins, and sixteen Frya coins. The coins below one Frya are made from silver, their thickness determining their value. Above one Frya, the coins are made from gold, with their width determining their value. All are stamped with the face of Kalle XII.

Technology Overview: Vanjana is highly advanced in aeronautics, thanks to their large supply of Elan to experiment with. They are on the frontline of aeronautical advancements, constantly finding new ways to extend airship efficiency and effectiveness. They view the sky as the future, and are eager to reach it. Their cities are all connected by rail and telegraph lines, and they laid a telegraph line across both the Lägre Nordsjön and the Övre Nordsjön to enable telegraph communications between Vanjana proper, Nordsted, and Varmland. Industry in Vanjana is also quite advanced, with Elan being used more commonly than in other nations. 

Vanjanan airships use a special type of ammunition in the mains guns. Known as ""Elan Shot"", this ammunition burns a small amount of Elan to reduce its weight when fired. There are different types of Elan Shot for different distances, as they are meant to run out of Elan before hitting the target. The antigravity effects of Elan allow a higher velocity to be achieved for these projectiles, and have the side effect of leaving behind a trail of Elan smoke. One can always tell when a Vanjanan airship is firing from by looking for those trails of smoke, but they have a larger destructive capability thanks to their velocity.

Military Overview: 
'For the glory of the Goddess!""
-Vanjanan battle cry

The Vanjanan military is split up into three divisions: The Holy Vanjanan Army, the Holy Vanjanan Navy, and the Holy Vanjanan Air Corps. Out of these three, the Navy is by far the weakest, as they are the smallest in number. They van hold their ground given a good leader, but without one, they'll find themselves easily overrun. The Army has been the pride of Vanjana for decades, with well-disciplined and well-trained troops that hold their own even when vastly outnumbered. However, it is the King that truly makes the Army shine. It is believed that if the King is leading a battle, the Goddess herself is fighting with the Vanjanans. The King certainly does his best to reinforce this idea, as he didn't lose a single battle in the Great Nordsjön War.

The Airborne Corps is the most advanced division, with highly efficient Elan Drives and their Elan Shot. However, they are inexperienced in air-to-air combat, as war games can only account for so much. If the enemy uses a strategy they practiced for, they could most likely easily crush them. However, if the enemy Admiral invented a new tactic, they could very well be defeated unless their own Admiral came up with a way to counter it. The Airborne Corps is, however, one of the largest air fleets in the world. If all else fails, they could resort to sheer numbers. If they reached that point though, it likely means that they'll either lose anyways or take heavy losses winning.

As you can see, I went and said ""It's the Navy but in the sky"". I envision Vanjanan doctrine saying ""100% of the world is covered by the sky, so if we rule the sky, then we rule the world"". Expect combined arms to feature heavily, especially since my destroyers are fast and maneuverable little bastards. The Army marches in with airships above them, the airships start bombing the enemy while the Army hands back and fires away, then the Army pushes in along with an Aerial Dreadnought and pounds the remaining enemy soldiers to a pulp.

You know, provided the enemy doesn't have AA guns. In that case, the Army hopes the King is leading them. Because he's (as you can tell) Charles XII.

~On colossal ships, I actually don't have any. To Resian high command, they make no sense. Common rule of thumb, even in WW2, was that a shore gun is worth three naval guns of the same caliber in a counter battery duel due to the difficulty aiming on the rocking sea, and the better defense that a shore gun has. A naval gun, which is almost indubitably better protected and more stable than an air ship gun, is probably worth some measure more. In the sea control focus of the Resian navy, naval guns get better results for far cheaper in all but one case: Reconaissance. So I have hybrid air-sea destroyers that scout.</div>"

I made hybrid airships regular ships that shoot huge volleys of rockets. I can't think of anything MORE steampunk!

As a side note, the shore battery to naval gun ratio is in effect before defenses are taken into account - it is simply a statement of accuracy, not of durability, and that number comes from before the 2nd world war, I am almost certain.

Side Side note, limbered anti-aircraft guns are very feasible and I am positing that my Nation at least has a piece of semi-mobile artillery that is capable of hitting Elan-powered ships</div>"

Their shortcomings are balanced by their strengths. The limited height is all that makes them balanced. The higher they go, the more range they get and the harder they become to hit. 

At sea, the target is small, so the range benefit that their 8000 feet gives them is negated by wind reducing accuracy. 

On land, the target is gigantic, so they can evade the enemy fire while engaging (provided they are not surprised by hidden guns).

So basically airships do exactly the role we envision they would and should: Demolish with extreme prejudice the natives without being OP on civilized nations.</div>"

""Ever the skeptics, the General staff questioned the cost effectiveness of a purely Elan based, pure flying ship. A hybrid airship/boat with a change of propellers (the engines cannot tolerate high RPMs, so a very large propeller is needed in the air) could travel by air or sea, land just about anywhere, and would have a longer range. This is the basis of the Falcon class, an interceptor/scout fleet defender designed to conserve Elan.

My destroyers are pretty capable of that. Despite what the art would tell you (It's not like I commissioned it), those smaller turrets have a 360 degree rotational range and can point directly up if needed. The larger ones are (Again, despite the art) capable of pointing about 70 degrees upwards and have the same rotational range as the other turrets.

Nation Name: The Unified Duchies of Resia
Flag: <img src=""http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/g/gb-s-lewis.gif""/>
Government: Appropriations are controlled in the name of the Grand Duke by a unicameral, directly elected popular vote Parliament, as are taxes and generally every facet of government but the military, where HGDH The Grand Duke exercises control in organization and deployment. He also may submit declarations of war to the parliament which may only be rejected with a two thirds vote.

Economy: As a liberal economy, Resia focuses on the financial and investment sectors, but most of all on maritime shipping. The country is heavily industrialized, but limited population and limited land area prevents it from being THE industrial powerhouse.

As for natural resources, the government is experimenting with offshore oil drilling on account of coal supplies being not that numerous. Iron deposits are plentiful amd there is a respectable amount of Elan,

For food, fishing in the gigantic Resian territorial waters is a tremendous part of the economy and helps mitigate low agricultural yields.

Leader(s): 
~Grand Duke Vilhem I
~Prime Minister Lord Lloyd Smith.
~Admiral of The Fleet and Chief of the Admirality, Count Charles of Tayer.
~The Chief of the General Staff and Field Marshal, Margrave George of the Eastern Isles. 

Desired Map location: http://imgur.com/8iIbWIF

Important Locations: 
~Streymoy: the metropolitan home island and also the largest.
~Lohna, the beautiful and cosmopolitan capital city, and site of most financial activity. 
~Westmark and Eastmark: The furthest west island and furthest east islands. Their precarious positions are not ignored by the government. While Eastmark is close enough to fit niceky under the iron umbrella of the mighty Resian Navy, Westmark is too far to station a significant portion of the navy. Accordingly, it is effectively a garrison state. Press freedoms are limited, every citizen is required to own a gun, and much of the developed land by the coast is used for impressive coastal  fortifications, and the beach is covered in obstacles for an amphibious assault. The army maintains a very large Westmark garrison.

Cultural Overview: The Resians have always been a free people, not withstanding they have not always had a means of legitimately participating in government. The widely distributed nature of the island kingdom meant rebels could revolt and rapidly secure the islands, forcing the government to have to make opposed amphibious landings against a well-armed people who have likely commandeered coastal cannon in the easy places to land. Thus, the Grand Dukes generally avoided incurring the wrath of his people when possible and reasonable demands were agreed to.

They are a hardworking, industrious, traditional and conformist people. A lack of government force has meant that those who defy social norms are only censured by an appropriate degree of ostracism. 

Technology Overview: With limited government interference, the society of Resia has always been on the forefront of technology, whether the Resians have liked it or not. Better means of production, discovered in Resia or learned on voyages to other lands, are rapidly adopted by the market's invisible hand, despite the gripes of any luddites.

Military Overview: 

By far, the predominant military arm is the navy. The small army exists to support the navy, and so focuses on small, very expensive and modern units with lots of firepower to take land from the enemy when it is diffuse and hold it when concentrated forces come against them. Mobility is secondary to survivability and firepower.

Crucial to the navy's strength is the means by which the armor is made. It is a revolutionary process, and an intensely guarded state secret. The armor, a unique steel mixture with Carbon (cemented by gas cementation on only the outward facing side of the armor) Nickel, Manganese, Silicon, Magnesium, and Sulphur is heated on only one side while the other side is buried in clay. Once 40% of the plate is at the needed temperature for face hardening, the plate is dragged out of the furnace and into an enormous vat of water to ensure uniform cooling. The resultant armor is very hard on the exposed face, but not very prone to spalling or cracking. Given that GCMK2 (Gas Cementation Mark 2) armor is a very new, bleeding edge technology, it is only on the newest ships. Armor on the older ships, the GCMK1 armor is more prone to cracking and spalling, but will resist ship weapons just as well. Reserve ships have the 15% less effective CC (Coal Cementation) armor.

(Gunnery note: To counter the air threat, all guns under 6 inches have been mounted such that their elevation reaches 80 degrees. All six inch guns can elevate 60 degrees. All 9.2 inch  guns can elevate 45 degrees.)

Airforce overview:


Ever the skeptics, the General staff questioned the cost effectiveness of a purely Elan based, pure flying ship. A hybrid airship/boat with a change of propellers (the engines cannot tolerate high RPMs, so a very large propeller is needed in the air) could travel by air or sea, land just about anywhere, and would have a longer range. This is the basis of the Falcon class, an interceptor/scout designed to conserve Elan.

~Falcon Class Air Destroyer (60):
Displacement: 236 metric tons.
Armor: None
Vertical Propulsion: 34 meter diameter spherical rigid helium balloon.
Sea speed: 27 knots
Airspeed: Theoretically capable of insanely faster speeds, speeds of 33 knots are about the max unless in the middle of combat due to the intense windspeeds making walking on the deck difficult. When everyone is at batttlestations, sheltered from the winds, speeds of 60 knots are not unheard of.
Armament: 
-1 QF 12 pounder
-3 QF 6 pounder
-4 QF 1 pounder autocannon

~Hellfire Class Port Attack Ship (30)

Differs only from the falcon in armament:

Armament:
-1 QF 12 pounder
-2 QF 1 pounder
-2000 60 lb Hale rockets</div>"

You are missing the point entirely.

Airships can fly. They can fly high. So high anti-air guns start to be ineffective. In this case, one could build ships specifically made to pretty much carry anti-air guns up with them for when airships are out of range of ground emplacements.

I am not saying everyone should make such ships. I am saying you could. You could also try to develop ground emplacements with better range. But if you want mobility, the ships are a good option.</div>"

Heard you guys need someone to jump in and start warring the f**k out of things? 

...

Joking of course. Here's my app.

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Open me up :D"" type=""button"">Open me up :D [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><span class=""bb-b"">Nation Name:</span> Emporia

<span class=""bb-b"">Flag:</span> A pink rabbit, set against a white background.  

<span class=""bb-b"">Government:</span> Bloated democracy, I guess would be the best way to put matters. The government is run by any single individual who can garner at least 25% of the national vote. Considering that all peoples, from the smallest infant, to the most infirm old guy, can vote, this naturally yields very exciting results. 

To digress a little, the Emporian President simply puts his or her name forwards per 4 years (5 if the incumbent delays things a little), appears on a few stages in front of the masses, and speaks their mind. Naturally, this is a very filling buffet of special interest, and typically, it is the mood of the nation that decides who runs it. 

Why such a crazy system, you ask? Emporia was formerly a total monarchy. However, due to the oppression of such a regime, coupled with rising educational standards and contact with other nations amongst the masses, the Kings and Queens of Emporia soon met their bloody end at the hands of enraged peasants. Never wanting to commit themselves to a ""Royal Family"" again, aforementioned peasants simply said ""whoever gets a popular approval, is in charge for four years"". And that's pretty much it.

The elected President has complete control over every aspect of the military, law making, economic and foreign policies. They are literally Kings and Queens with a shelf-life. The only thing they cannot touch, is the constitution. 

The consitution is a funny affair all by itself, and lists just one item: 

<span class=""bb-i"">""The President of Emporia must be a confirmed citizen, must have received at least 25% of the votes, and must reapply for election in four years time. During the election season, it is illegal for the President to request the security services or paramilitary bodies to in any way, shape or form interfere with due process""</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Economy:</span> Capitalists-Come-Socialists. With no human rights, and a constant changing landscape as far as the law is concerned, the Emporian economy is a circus. Some years yield great prosperity, as giant companies establish themselves over the ruins of the previous President's economic policies, and other years see the return of total market chaos. Naturally, such instability has destroyed confidence in Emporia as a stable society, and so foreign investment is often scarce. 

This has driven many successive Presidents to nationalise the nation's industries, with the aims of establishing self sufficiency. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Leader(s):</span> President Kimbol Fernhurst

<span class=""bb-b"">Important People:</span> Stating that anyone else is important with regards to running the state, other than Our Beloved Kimbol Fernhurst, is a criminal offence dear friend. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Desired Map location:</span> If you'd kindly update that blank carpet you got hanging up there on the top post, I'd gladly grab my picket fence and start laying it out for you. But from what you've said, Emporia would be up there in the North with the other smog-choked countries.

<span class=""bb-b"">Important Locations:</span> Kimbol Town, Emporia's capital city. That's right, you've guessed it, that is not the city's original name. 

Other than that, we have Trintonbel, a major industrial hub, and Kerowan, an agricultural communal-farm type complex that houses hundreds of thousands of people. 

Aside from these, Emporia is dotted with hundreds of villages, and scores of towns, all of which are minor, but all of which contribute to the bigger picture. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Cultural Overview:</span> Emporian culture changes every 4 years. Whoever is elected always seem to have their own ideals with regards to what a person should look like, and how they should live their lives. Some Presidents embrace religion and morals; others encourage atheism and debauchery. Some Presidents ban music, others nationalise it. To refer to Emporian culture, is to refer to a rainbow that keeps glitching out of existence. 

Naturally, this frustrates foreign dignitaries, who constantly have to update themselves every four years on the latest changes and expectations of Emporian society. 


<span class=""bb-b"">Technology Overview:</span> Despite the economic and social chaos that runs rampant in Emporia, it is a fairly advanced nation. Airships are widespread, and steam cars are becoming common in the richer districts of Kimbol Town. Guns have replaced the lance on the battlefield, and generally speaking, Emporia's military could keep pace with the nation's bigger and tougher neighbours - to an extent.


<span class=""bb-b"">Military Overview:</span> The military is subject to constant restructures, as Presidents scramble to find room in the budget to fund the latest cosmetic surgery researches, or other frivolous affairs. However, the core of the Emporian armed forces, which goes unchanged most of the time, because Presidents fear it may turn on them, is as follows: 

<span class=""bb-u"">1st Emporian Army:</span>

140,000 Infantry. 

18,000 artillery pieces of varying calibres. 

1,400 anti-air cannons. 

309 Emporian Airships; large hulks, shaped in the form of seaborne galleys, that primarily transfer troops across land as opposed to filling a combat role. 

6,000 horse mounted cavalry.

<span class=""bb-u"">2nd Emporian Army:</span>

64,000 Infantry

4,300 artillery pieces of varying calibres. 

300 anti-air cannons. 

87 Emporian Airships; large hulks, shaped in the form of seaborne galleys, that primarily transfer troops across land as opposed to filling a combat role.</div></div>

""This twisted cat and mouse game always starts the same
First we're both down to play then somehow you go astray
We went from nothing to something, liking to loving
It was us against the world and now we just topping""

She then put her hand on his shoulder and used her other hand to take his hand for the Tango.

""It's like I loved you so much and now I just hate you
Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothing for us ain't no place in between
Might, might be me believing what you say that you never mean
Like it'll last forever but now forever ain't as long
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be stuck singing this song
You were different from my last but now you got it mirrored
And as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer enough""</div>"

""I'm gonna l-l-l-love you until it hurts
Just to get you I'm doing whatever works

That'll do you how I do ya
That will bring you to your knees

Till you feel like you breathe for it
Till you do any and everything for it
I want you to fiend for it
Wake up and dream for it
Till it's got you gasping for air
And you lean for it""

She put his hands to her hips for him to lift her high to balance above him while he holds her up.

""'Till they have a CAT scan and check on your mind

<span class=""bb-i"">Ship's History</span>
Captain Taggart is the second Commanding Officer of the Defiance. The first captain was relieved of his command due to dereliction of duty and failure to obey an order from a commanding officer, when he refused to chase a Pirate ship that was larger and faster than the Defiance. After taking on his new crew Captain Taggart completed his shakedown cruise in 1743. 

Defiance had her first overhaul in 1744, several storage holds were removed and turned into berthing to allow a larger compliment of Marines on board. This has added the capability of allowing the Defiance to have larger boarding parties and increase mission capacity.

The Defiance is currently taking on fresh supplies and new crewmen at the Florida Keys

<span class=""bb-i"">Ships Destroyed by the Defiance:</span>

<span class=""bb-i"">Black Market Merchants:</span>

<span class=""bb-b"">Faction:</span> Navy

<span class=""bb-b"">Background:</span>John was left at an orphanage when he was a baby. His mother left a note saying she was sorry they couldn't take care of him. At the age of eight he ran away and joined the Royal Navy. He has worked his way up from a humble cabin boy to a captain of a Frigate. In his 32 years of flying he has been through several battles and skirmishes and has literally been around the world. Like most naval captains his crew have become his family, and he takes pride in caring for them and his vessel. He has a strong sense of honor and does not put up with shoddy work. He is a tough but fair captain and does his best to get the best out of his crew. 

Throughout his career John has seen several of his shipmates move on and become Merchants, and even Pirates.  He has invested with a few different merchant captains with his extra pay. His goal is to one day retire in a small villa by the sea away from the chaos of the world. 

John cannot stand dishonesty and has made a vow to hunt down Pirates and and black market traders that strike fear into the hearts of good, hard working merchantmen and women.

Background:Null began his life poor and unwanted and nameless in the city of Cannes. He grew up a street boy, and learned to climb and scrap and escape as well as any young thief on the streets. He quickly developed a reputation for never being seen, stealing from a shopkeep in such a way that it seemed nothing at all had occurred, giving him the nickname ""Null"". He was after his twelfth year the leader of a gang of ragtags and runaways who took charge of crimes withing northern Cannes... well small crimes. His real boss had been a man who went by the name L'Ange, who not too long after employing Null to run small crimes, started speaking of him as a son, and dubbed him ""Null L'Ange"" giving Null his surname. When Null turned twenty L'Ange came to him with an idea to enlist him in the French Navy, then commandeer on of the dreadnought vessels for privateering, L'Ange of course receiving a cut of whatever was brought back and sold. Null agreed that it was a terrific idea, and promptly left to enlist. The strange thing is that it is said L'Ange never left that office, yet inspection of it showed no sign of either a struggle, or a body. L'ange was never heard from again. Null enlisted in the navy, and with the help of his gang of street theives, (teenagers most of them), Took the ship he had been assigned to without spilling a drop of blood, and dropping all of the crew overboard. This gave him an immediate notoriety that was unrivaled for a starting pirate, and it soon became clear that Europe was no longer safe. secretly changing the ships silken ballon from the french baby blue and white to a midnight blue, he sailed off under cover of night, to the America's to plunder the Carribean Main.</div>"

Ship: So long as this character is on a merchant's ship, all will be well.

Ship Description and class: [Only fill out if the vessel be yers] 

Faction: Merchant

Background: Albrecht Schuster was born in the gaggle of quarreling states known as the Holy Roman Empire, in the Principality of Waldeck in a large village, as the middle son of a cobbler and his wife. Although instructed in the basics of the trade from an early age, most of his father's attention went to his eldest brother, Wilhelm. Albrecht and his other siblings whom received little acknowledgement or attention from their parents, often went out of the village to visit aging farmers. Once there, they were often told old folktales and stories from the old country. Eventually Albrecht and his siblings outgrew the stories, but still visited the elderly farmers. Albrecht would then go to visit his grandparents to hear their stories and their experiences in life.

Albrecht's grandfather told him of how he himself had been the captain of a small merchant vessel, fought off pirates, and rescued damsels in distress. The stories would change with each visit; sometimes involving a monarch congratulating the old man, a stash of treasure, or a giant pirate frigate being brought to the ground in a hail of fire. Albrecht figured out that his grandfather was often spinning yarns. Yet again, he didn't mind. He had a newly found interest in the sky and the vessels that sailed it. He told himself that he would one day become rich and famous. That there would be books written about him for years to come after his death. All of it would become true provided he had the starting funds. With money from the odd jobs he had done over the years, he bought lessons to speak and write in Spanish. 

The lessons were expensive, but if he wanted any chance in realizing his dream, he would have to learn other languages. Albrecht finished his schooling in Spanish, penniless. 15 years old, and he had resisted all attempts of becoming an apprentice to learn language from a Spaniard. He had become more cynical by this age. Angry that he had wasted his short time on this earth, Albrecht Schuster almost became a beggar. Until his grandfather talked to him, and taught him about what it was like to be a sailor. No tall tales this time. Only teachings. Albrecht had been fascinated by masers and all of the other technology that had gone into airships. His grandfather wrote a letter to an old merchant captain to start off Albrecht in his journey. Now 19 years old, Albrecht was flatly rejected for the job.

So, he repaired shoes and helped out in his father's shop. As absent of his presence as ever, he didn't even notice when Albrecht stole his musket, some funds, and left home. He left a letter for his family, promising that he would return either rich, famous, or dead. Albrecht traveled to Spain, and got a job on a merchant vessel as the captain's personal servant. In turn, he would be taught more than just the basics. He remained the Captain's servant for two years, and when he had viewed himself as ready, he got a job as a sailor on another merchant ship. He would do all he could so that he could realize his dream.</div>"

Build: Lithe, limber, wiry, though muscled and strong.  
Hair: Brown, tied into a ponytail
Facial Hair: Stubble; keeps it shaved so that it stays that way, neither beard nor cleanshaven.
Eyes: One shockingly clear blue eye, his right- the a shockingly clear green eye. Combined, he can ensnare almost anyone in his piercing gaze (which he uses to his advantage). 

Apparel: White shirt with dirtied, oily sleeves rolled up past the elbow. Leather pants, which have black slacks sewn onto them to make them more presentable (though still undoubtedly dirty at all times), and a brown, thicker waistcoat, obviously as a bit of padding against the cold, and as a bit more protection. Overall, he appears to be somewhat fancily dressed, with his 'custom' clothes, but the cleanliness of the clothes indicates that he rather likes it, and wears it as work clothes instead.

Gear: Leather harness that is able to hold a variety of items, from bullets for his revolver, to items that can clip on, to items he can put into pouches dotting it. Also has a larger leather belt with similar set-ups, with loops for bullets, clips, pouches and small bags. Generally carries a toolbox's worth on his harness- and occasionally carries a satchel with more gear and gadgets
Rank: Mechanic (Yes, I realize there's already a mechanic, and I also realize that a ship could probably do with two or three, since multiple things may go wrong at once, and one will always want a fellow to back them up if they have to start working on the exteriors of a ship's engines)
Weapons: Carries a small knife that can be used to cut rope or the like, and any gadget he decides to put together

Faction: Merchant, I guess? He doesn't sail or sell, just fix and repair, like Molly

Rank:Captain 
Ship:HMS Dragon 
Description and class: The HMS Dragon is a British ship of the line, built to dominate the skies in the name of her majesty the queen, it boasts 78 guns and two mazers that are on the port and starboard sides. The Dragon was built for one purpose and that is bringing a lot of cannons or guns to the fight so that it can stand toe to toe with other ships, but she is also a thing of beauty with a dragon figurehead and the decks polished so much they practically shine. Captain Archer sees the Dragon as his baby and does not tolerate even the slightest thing out of place on er.

The HMS dragon also has a contingent of Royal Marines and the means to arm them, a lucky shot on the ships armory could cause the whole thing to go up. And as of right now it is being used to secure the queens interests in the Caribbean, which mostly means protecting merchants.  
Faction:English Royal Navy
Background:John Archer was born into wealth and prestige. His father was a very rich man and had been apart of the English old boys club for sometime, which meant that John was allowed a better education than most. As the boy grew up he took a interest in tactics from a friend of his father who was a admiral in the royal navy, these two developed a bond much akin to a mentor and his pupil with the admiral telling the boy about his time in the navy serving the queen.

After his time with the Admiral and when he was of age John told his father about his desire to join the royal navy. His father denied him, and instead sent him to practice law. So he became the equivalent of a trust fund child. He attended grand parties and drank, flirted with women, and all around sullied his family name. Eventually his father quietly took his son out of law and allowed him to pursue his own dreams of joining the royal navy, which with his fathers rank within the empire allowed him to go in as a officer serving under the Admiral that tutored him for so long John found himself on the HMS Broadwater. 

During his time on Broadwater, John had travel all around the Atlantic bringing justice to the queens enemies. Going from battle to battle wore down the young officer, who began to find comfort in drinking, fighting, gambling, and in women often times deserting his post to do all of these things. His self-destructive life style did not go unnoticed and some of the other officers aboard the Broadwater reported John to the admiral, who faced with no choice was to be brought before a tribunal when they next stopped in England. On their way back to England for John to stand trial they came under attack by pirates, they attacked so suddenly they barely had time to react. In the battle not only did the Admiral so did the Admirals first mate, even without the two officers, and thanks to Johns quick thinking they managed to fight off the pirates and hobble off with a heavily damaged airship. With their two primary officers dead John was put in charge, so he continued their course into England.

When they finally made it back home, John faced the tribunal with the members of the Broadwater's crew. Who testified on his behalf that he saved their lives and somehow got them home in one piece. Instead of facing a demotion John was rewarded with a promotion in the form of a captaincy of a new ship in her majesty's fleet. <span class=""bb-i"">The HMS Dragon</span> One of the greatest ships assembled by the royal navy.

Hair: Dark and cut short (about an inch long)

Facial Hair: None 

Eyes: Dark (a whole two of them)

Apparel: Loose tunic and trousers. Military style jacket, dark colors (appears re-dyed) and worn, but carefully cared for.

Gear: Compass, sextant, maps, quadrant, a few other odder devices mostly for navigation, a notebook, pencil, penknife

Weapons: A boot dagger, a flint lock pistol, and a cutlass.  

Rank: First mate / Navigator (if there isn't one, she's a bit obsessed with it actually and would probably do it anyway)

Ship: The <span class=""bb-i"">El Marees</span>

Background: Beth was born to a military man of many honors. Her and her twin were raised by their mother primarily. Beth hero worshiped their father and was nearly destroyed by his death when she was only 8 years old. Her twin, Sarah, on the other hand went the way of their mother. A fancy young lady. Beth went the way of sword fights and danger. 

Her older brother Dave is who she took the identity of when she finally went out to explore the world. He had no established reputation (as he died at the age of 12). Beth when she ran away from home the next year took his paper work, thankful for their similar appearance and got onto a ship as a powder monkey.

She got lucky and survived, her gender still a secret. The child called Dave Wakefield, continued working her way up through the ranks and working on different ships until she heard of Amir looking for new shipmates. She switched crews, as she often did to keep her true identity hidden. Often even leaving with ladies at a bar to encourage her mates to not question her. 

Beth's family is large. Some of that is fictive kin, some of it is blood, but it is spread all throughout the world. In almost any port Beth can easily find someone she knows. Chances are a favor or two is owed between the relatives, and Beth finds herself often caught up in the drama of her relatives (another reason for switching ships often). 

Beth's immediate family includes 21 siblings. Most are half, only three (one now dead) are full siblings. Most of her siblings have several children (though none match her parents at producing the hoard). Both of her parents had many siblings, who all had children.</div></div>

He doesn't like to talk about his family, or his past really. If it doesn't go in his naval record, he's unlikely to want to talk to anyone about it. That being said: Jeremy was born the second son and third child of five in a well to do family. There were things in less familial past that drove him to join the Royal Navy at eighteen. He is working his way from crewmen to...where he'll go from there. He's not certain and not really bothered either way. He wants to be useful, that's what matters.

He served briefly on another vessel before being recently assigned to his new floating home. </div>"

A three day Parlay had been declared in the Keys so this meeting could take place. Tag stood in the front of the room as the other ship captain's slowly trickled in. Some he knew by their faces others by their reputation. He had paid a hefty sum to get messengers out in the area to make this meeting happen.

The last several months had been rather treacherous for the Air Ship Captain, many of the major countries had formed a semi-alliance when it came to piracy. They decided to let merchants receive a marque and bounty for taking down pirate ships and their crews. The impact had been rather surprising as merchants found they could make more money hunting pirates than shipping goods. The merchant trade business had suffered and created a demand for more traders but that was not the issue that forced this unlikely meeting between Navy Captains, Merchants, and Pirates. 

Though he despised the pirate captains, he knew with certainty that events in the near future would force them to work together whether he liked it or not. There were larger events happening in the grand scheme of things that had frightened him enough to make this meeting happen. Luckily for him though, Tag had many friends in the Navy, simply due to his years of service, and they had been able to provide more concrete information than the rumors he had heard.  

He looked at the room slowly filling and gathered his thoughts and prepared to give his speech. It wasn't a grandiose speech, he wasn't into those kinds of things but what he did have were facts and those were frightening enough. Clearing his throat he said, ""It looks like we are waiting for one or two more Captains. As soon as everyone is here we will begin. There are glasses and a single pitcher of ale at each table, please feel free to help yourselves.""</div>"

The stories his grandfather told were tall tales, but they had a profound influence on the man. In addition to their overall rowdy behavior, pirates were brigands who had a penchant for taking everything that wasn't nailed to the floor, and killing witnesses. Albrecht almost spat in their direction. He even contemplated insulting their mothers for raising such curs. Yet he didn't; that would undoubtedly put his employer in a bad light for letting a member of the crew be beaten to a bloody pulp. Albrecht's gaze shifted to his employer. <span class=""bb-i"">The Moor...</span> Albrecht thought with a perplexed frown. He had been told repeatedly by the Spanish that all of his ilk were all but rotted to the core. Yet Amir seemed none of these things to Albrecht. He had appeared much kinder than the stories the members of his former ship had let on. Were all Moors this kind?

Albrecht's thoughts wandered back to the former ship. ""Rata Alemán,"" the sailors had called him - German rat. Albrecht was unused to such language, but soon enough took on the name himself to show them that he wasn't soft. Over time he had made friends. Friends whom he promised to write. Yet he never seemed to have the time to write; there was always something to do, or an anxiety-ridden dream, the callings of his former home in the old world. He wouldn't admit it, but he missed home. He missed the stories of the farmers, his grandparents, and even his father. The father that had given him so little, had shown him little love, he pined for. Albrecht focused on David for a moment; a peculiar first mate to him, but he would follow orders as a good sailor always did. He nodded firmly. He had a promise to fulfill. One that he would fulfill one small task at a time. Return home either rich, famous, or dead. </div>"

It wasn't like home. Which shouldn't have been all that surprising. And it wasn't like it was his first time down in the Caribbean. Nor in the Keys. But still, even with the scenic views, he couldn't understand why people would live here all the time. It was too hot, too wet, and he didn't even want to think about the storms that came through every year that could easily wash away the little villages that sprang up here and there.

Jeremy was standing at something of attention outside the room. It was hopefully precautionary, and he wouldn't be needed to do anything. But the room was filling with pirates and other non military types. Things could get messy. And quickly. He nodded at one of the last few to enter, turning his head some to listen. He wanted to know just what exactly they were getting into. Rumors were one thing. Hearing things straight from the captain's mouth was another all together.</div>"

The room was filled with Pirates, Merchants, and a few Naval  Officers as well.

He cleared his throat before continuing, ""I'm sure you're all wondering why I called you here today for this parlay. I am captain Taggart for those of you who do not know me. As I look around the room I see several of you I do know, some I have served in the Navy with, while others of you I have chased and hunted. Those of you who do know me know that I am a man of my word, so for the next two days until you leave this port all will remain neutral. 

Now let's get to the crux of the matter. I've asked you to come here with with a couple of your ship's personnel. I have brought my Chief Gunner's Mate with me, This is Chief Gunner's Mate Edwardson and he will have some things to say shortly. Before he does though I ask that you heard me out.

We have all heard the rumors of a doomsday device that is able to bring down air ships in a single shot. This weapon has been called a maser and I'm sad to say it is not a rumor. Chief Guns Edwardson will explain more about the particulars in a minute but the maser will be able to take out every ship in 500 yards upon it's detonation. This horrific weapon developed by an alliance between the French and Spanish . It cannot be allowed to be used no matter what the cost. If such a weapon is allowed to exist it could doom us all.""

Turning to the man on his right Captain Taggart motioned for the man to come forward. ""This is Chief Edwardson, who will give us a few more details on the weapon.""</div>"

He had spent a bit of time looking up reports on everyone present today. The ones about Wakefield, Barakat's first mate, were wildly different, as if the young man were two different people. Barakat himself also had a strange line of tales following him. 

The frown on Edwardson's face showed his displeasure at having been interrupted. He wasn't fond of speaking in front of large crowds, his own crew was one thing, but this here was quite different. Julius had put way too much effort into the speech though. 

""You can figure out how you want to react to this after I explain the Maser."" Edwardson stood up a bit straighter and pulled down on his light jacket letting it resettle on his shoulders. He raised his chin a bit and then started speaking, ""The Maser is a highly intense and invisible beam of microwave radiation. Using redirective zinc plates the Maser could fire this beam at a target up to 500 yards away with pinpoint accuracy and with none of the kickback of conventional guns. Your ship,"" Edwardson glanced at Barakat. ""Is in more danger for not having defensive weapons on it. The Maser can take out your ship with a single hit."" Wakefield frowned and glanced at Barakat. Edwardson turned the attention back to Captain Taggart.</div>"

Now then why are you here exactly? The maser is only the beginning of the problem ladies and gentlemen. It seems the test firing of the maser has attracted the attention of some unusual creatures. These creatures have been called cloud cats.  Apparently some of the first test firings has brought on attacks of these creatures. They are large and feline, and have wings. It is unknown where they live but they seem to attack from out of clouds hence the name cloud cats. They have already attacked several ships and have left no survivors. The only reason we know they exist is because a couple of them were killed and their corpses were collected for study."" 

""So first off we have two threats to our way of life first The Maser and second The Cloud Cats. I know not everyone will want to join in the fight but I figured if we could work together we could face these threats head on. If you are not interested it's ok you could probably make a killing in trade right now with less vessels in the air, but Captains I leave the choice in your hands.""</div>"

Imagine if you will a world where boats never took off as a mode of transportation. Instead people turned to lighter than aircraft as the major mode of transport. As newer technologies advanced, so did the human scope of the world. Cartography was thrown into an age of exploration, as coastlines were now clearer and seen from a raised perspective. This made the discovery of the New World that much greater of an impact on the globe. When Christopher Colombus sailed his borrowed Spanish Airship across the Atlanticus sky and reached the americas, believing he had hit india, he sailed northwest over the coast in search of the major trade centers Persepolis and Susa. What he and his cartographer assisstant, Amerigo Vespucci discovered, was a whole new continent. Quickly named, America. Keeping the New World a secret from the Eastern Nations, the major European powers quickly staked their claims to the various lands of America. The Native Tribes were quickly isolated by the ""White Gods and their Flying Sky-Eaters"" and were moved to their own country on the coast, ""Oklham"" while the ones in the southern continent, who called themselves ""Aztec"" were allowed to keep their sprawling stone cities. Both Oklham and Azteca were soon after struck by disease, and while the healers and wise men of Oklham saved about half of the population of their country with the help of the white mans medicine, the proud Aztecs would do nothing but sacrifice to their Gods, and when 3 quarters of their population had been struck down by disease, the mighty warrior king Moctezuma had his men create a giant flaming Sky Bow, which ignited one of the sky-eaters that were flying past the south American mountains.

The balloon crash ignited both the 75 souls of it's passengers, and a great war between the Spanish Nations and the Aztecs. Even with his dwindling and diseased population, Moctezuma managed to cut down the Spanish Conquistadors that flew into his city, and songs are sung that when he captured their Admiral, he named him a worthy opponent, and had a likeness created of him in gold, with the living man trapped inside the statue. The statue was raised into the sky on one of the war balloons, and crashed in an unknown place with its cargo, never to be seen again. This defeat led to the creation of a new breed of war balloon, one where the balloon Itself was plated with metal, impervious to cannon, trebuchet, or sky bow. With these ""Acorazado"" or ""Dreadnought"", the King Ferdinand rained fire down upon the remaining aztecs, destroying their cities and temples, and collapsing the great pyramid onto Moctezuma, who was quivering inside begging his Gods to save him.
<img src=""http://s29.postimg.org/yq26n48bb/dreadnought.jpg""/>
Once the world saw the destructive power of these dreadnoughts, every country with them money imediately began research and construction of their own, as well as anti-dreadnought weapons. While dreadnoughts were almost impervious to any attack, there was one man who invented the first real way of destroying them. Completely on accident. An increase in the studies of various gases led to the identification of the microwave, a form of radiation which jumped mankind ahead about 100 years. And with that discovery, came the MASER. 
<img src=""http://s29.postimg.org/dqm2vm6mv/maser_1.jpg""/><img src=""http://s29.postimg.org/kv3w4ndw7/maser_2.png""/>
The maser was a highly intense and invisible beam of microwave radiation that could be created simply using gas in a crystalline chamber and a certain type of lamp. Using redirective zinc plates the Maser could fire this beam at a target up to 500 yards away with pinpoint accuracy and with none of the kickback of conventional guns. Because it could be intensified or broadened depending on the desired effects, it was a very versatile weapon and tool, used for everything from cutting through metal, to instantly cooking a plate of food, to heating up gas for emergency lift. With its adaptability, low cost, and light weight it quickly became a favorite aboard vessels of all class. While sky bows were still also used, the Maser became the most common and dangerous weapon in a Airship's arsenal.

Now the sky above cities is often littered with the gleam of zinc plated balloons, and trade is at an all-time high. But as always, an increase in trade and the need to supply new settlements also means the rise of Pirates...

The year is 1746. 
You are a sky sailor, an agent of the wind and air.
Are you a captain?
A pirate?
A cabin boy? 
What ship do you fly, what port do you call home?
Who are you in this world, and are you prepared for what's to come?
---
The RP will start out in the Settlement on the Florida Keys in a Pub. All of us will be there, and afterwards everyone will go to their ships. Events will happen on a predetermined storyline, but for the most part how you respond to NPC's and individual situations will be up to you. I expect gore will likely happen, and if there is a sexual encounter I would prefer (well, really I mean you have to as per the rules) that it take place in PM. This will be a potentially offensive RP. Rascism is likely to be apart of many characters and NPC's as well as bawdy humor and aggressive language. If you are easily Offended, or are underage, or suffer from heart conditions which may prove fatal if you are startled or aroused, please press the left arrow in the top-left corner of your screen and go somewhere else.

Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the OOC Post for Airborn. Airborn is set in the world of Kenneth Oppel's book ""Airborn. If you are an avid reader I do highly suggest it.

Anyone wanting to take part in this roleplay will be required to submit and have a CS accepted. Post your character sheet and...
 <span class=""bb-b"">If you are not a captain, please do not specify what ship you are on. This is because it will be alot more fun if a player is not the only RP'er aboard a specific airship. If you are not a captain than any non-NPC crew will be assigned to you from the non captains. If there are enough players then you will be asked (as a ship captain) to GM a PM-group for you and your shipmates to avoid confusion. If you choose to be a captain please keep in mind that there will be some level of responsibility to your shipmates involved. Crew members please specify whether you want to be pirate, merchant, or Navy. Or if you have a specific preference as to who your captain is, then please clarify that as well. Rank will come on a first come first serve basis and will be subject to change at the captains discretion.</span></div>"

To go into a bit more detail... Seeing as Mchaggis has the only merchant vessel at the moment, I'm assuming Albrecht will be on that. Considering personal bias, and further influence by the Spanish, at first he'll likely view Amir as a ""Dirty Moor,"" etc. Likely without saying anything more due to him swallowing down certain stereotypes about decapitation. Seeing as Amir is loyal to his crew however? Albrecht may or may not give his life. Either that or see Amir as a pretty cool guy.

He'd probably see Beth as someone else whom he has to obey. Mind, I'll also be assuming that Albrecht is a new addition to the crew, so these things might unfold like that. If he's been on for awhile then he'll have seen Amir, Beth, and the rest of the crew as friends/good people...Or as the kinds of villains whom his grandfather talked about in the stories.

With that out of the way, what do the rest of you think your characters will act like once they get on their respective ships? To others?</div>"

~Stands at around 5'5 in human form~

Raven

Age 18

Human-Born

Element is Water

Ravens parents died when he was young. It had been a sunny day and the family had been sailing on the lake. They were all enjoying the nice weather when suddenly another boat that had lost control crashed into them. The family was sent into the water. Raven's mother had hit her head and was floating unconscious while his father had been pierced in the side by a broken piece of timber upon impact. Raven at the time was not able to swim though he struggled to reach his parents as they drifted away from. Luckily, a passing boat stopped and the driver was able to rescue though sadly his parents didn't make it. Raven suffered no extreme damage except for a scar above his right eye were a piece of wood had cut him. His uncle and only surviving family member took him in and he has lived with him ever since. Raven's uncle Jack owns a bar called The Silver Dragon. He bought Raven his own apartment when he turned 17. Raven is now 18 and works at his uncles bar as a waiter.</div></div>"

It was a wet and sleepy Sunday morning in the city. Only a few cars rolled up and down the streets at this hour. Of course there are a few places that are up and ready to take on the day. One of those places was the 'Fluer De Grande' flower shop. A young lady could be seen dragging a large garbage bag out towards the back alley's dumpster. She heaved the thing in and leaned against the dumpster to regain her breath. Her long white hair was damp from the rain. 

A long sigh escaped her lips as her mind lingered on a reoccurring dream she had been having for the past few days. She was falling, no gliding among the tall buildings. It was terrifying yet thrilling at the same time. It was almost like the wind was playing with her. Picking her up and letting her fall over and over again. She had been having this dream for almost a week and they were all she could talk about to the people at work and her aunt who was the only family she ever knew. Now done with the trash, the girl went back into the shop and pulled her apron from the hook near the door. The embroidery over the chest read 'Elly' in silvery wispy lettering.

It was the weekend so she wouldn't need any help opening the shop that day. They hardly had any customers before noon so it allowed for her to get a lot of prep-work done. She had already swept the floors and threw out the old wilted plants that didn't sell along with the trimmings from dressing other plants. Now she had the task of tidying up, which was where she would meticulously comb over the displays to see if anything needed to be cleaned or adjusted. Once everything appeared to be in order, she slowly sat behind the bar with a large cup of coffee. There was something about Sunday mornings that was so relaxing to Elly, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.</div>

<font color=""red""><span class=""bb-i"">”I think you’ve wiped that table enough. Anymore and it will start to erode away.”</span></font>

The sudden voice jolted Raven out of the thoughts that had been stealing his attention. The boy glanced up from the booth table to see Jack standing in front of him. His uncle stood at a good six feet with broad shoulders and a tapered waist. His legs were long and lean which allowed him to move and move fast. The man had a strong jaw with prominent cheekbones and full lips. His eyebrows, set over bright blue orbs, were bushy. Jack had one eyebrow raised, staring at his adopted nephew with an inquisitive look, wondering what it was that had distracted Raven so. Normally the boy was very focused but over the past few days Jack noticed that Raven’s concentration seemed to be elsewhere. 

<font color=""red"">”Are you feeling alright Raven? You've been in a daze all morning.</font>

Raven straightened, rag still clenched in his hand. <font color=""gold"">”I apologize Uncle. I assure you I am fine.”</font> Jack’s eyebrow raised even higher at that statement. <font color=""red"">”Fine? Now don’t give me that lad, you are most certainly not fine. Or are those bags under your eyes simply a new fashion statement?”</font> Raven’s hand subconsciously reached up to touch the bruise-colored mark under his right eye. Yes, he would admit that they looked bad when he had seen his reflection in the mirror this morning but it was just lack of sleep. He told his uncle as much. <font color=""gold"">”It’s fine. I just haven’t been sleeping as well as I normally do.”</font>

He did not know why he did not want to tell his uncle the reason he had been getting so little sleep but he wanted to figure it out on his own. The dream was his problem and he didn’t need to burden his uncle with anymore worry, especially since things were hectic at the bar with them losing a few workers and having to up the work load. 

Jack frowned, sensing that there was something that Jack wasn’t telling him. <font color=""red"">”Are you sure? Because you know that you can talk to me about anything that is bothering you.”</font> Raven gave him uncle a forced smile. <font color=""gold"">”If anything does come up I’ll be sure to some to you.”</font> Jack stared at the boy for a few moments before sighing, realizing that this was all that he was going to be able to get out of Raven. He nodded and told the boy that he would be in the office if he needed him before heading off. 

With his uncle no longer hovering over his shoulder Jack returned to wiping down the tables, mind returning to his problem at hand. That dream. That strange dream. He just couldn’t make heads or tails of it. For the past few days he had been having a dream where he is under water. In the dream the water had been so clear that he could see for miles on all side. He had seen the surface simmering above him but no matter how hard he had tried he just couldn’t reach it. The really odd thing was that he could breathe and that his clothes remained strangely dry though he could feel the currants dancing around him. Eventually, he would be able to see a dark mass slowly swimming towards him but he always wakes up before he could catch a glimpse at what it might be. It made him curious and he could just not stop thinking about it. But he hadn’t realized he had been that lost in thought until Jack had said something. He really should stop it, it wasn’t good to be absent-minded when there was work to be done.

With that thought strongly in his mind he forced himself away from the mystery and back into the present. He cast a look around. The bar part of the establishment didn’t open until after five but the restaurant portion opened at around seven. It was generally slow in the mornings and didn’t pick up until lunch time. Which was why Raven and Sal were the only two waiters until Ryan and Sarah clocked in at eleven. Speaking of Sal, where was he? Raven scanned the area and finally spotted the boy taking an order from a man in a suit. Realizing that he had spent way too long wiping tables, Raven put away the rag and took out his notepad as he made his way over to one of the regulars. <font color=""gold"">”Good morning James. What will you be having this morning.”</font> He said as he approached the old gentleman. James grinned at him, the gap where his two front teeth used to be showing prominently. <font color=""lightblue"">”How many times have I told you Raven, call me Jim. And I will have my usual, like always.”</font> 

Raven nodded as he scribbled down the order of scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast with a cup of coffee. <font color=""lightblue"">”Anyway Raven, are you alight? You’re looking a little worse for wear there.”</font> Raven smiled cordially and repeated the same answer he had given his uncle. Jim looked skeptically at him for a moment. Before he could interrogate him even further, Raven bowed his head and hurried over to give the cook the order. 

<font color=""red"">”Oi, Raven. Come’ere.”</font> Raven turned when he heard his uncles’ voice and saw him standing by the bar, beckoning him over. Raven sighed and made his way over. <font color=""gold"">”Yes?”</font> He asked, brushing his bangs out of his face. <font color=""red"">”I need you to run an errand for me. Here are directions to the place and the order.”</font> The man replied, handing Raven a piece of paper. <font color=""gold"">”Errand? What kind of errand?”</font> <font color=""red"">”Flowers. I need you to go pick-up some flowers. I placed the order yesterday and it should be ready.”</font> Raven blinked. <font color=""gold"">”Flowers? Whatever for?”</font> <font color=""red"">”To put on the tables, what else? This place could use some bright colors.”</font> <font color=""gold"">”But it’s only Sal and I, I just can’t leave to wait tables by himself.”</font> Jack raised an eyebrow. <font color=""red"">”There are only two customers here and besides, I can step in if need be. Now get going.”</font> He replied, giving Raven a gentle shove in the direction of the door.

Raven sighed as he took off his apron and hung it up before heading outside into the rain. He pulled his hood up as he glanced down at the directions his uncle gave him. He sighed once more before turning right and walking down the sidewalk. A few wrong turns later he finally managed to locate the flower shop. He pushed open the door, a cheery bell signaling his arrival as he shoved his hood down and approached the counter.</div></div>"

Elly sighed with her gaze looking over her steamy cup of coffee and out the shop window. Over the view of well kept flowers, and across the road, was a small bench with an overhang and a reflective wall that showed a murky image of the shop. She would stare at the vague image almost as if she was looking into a portal or alternate dimension. It would be a place where things would be similar but different. A place where the air would dance like it did in her dreams. 

With that thought, she slipped into a memory of how her dreams often began. Elly would be either on a high balcony of a classy hotel, a rooftop of a tall business building or another place where she could see for miles and miles. The air would push past her with a wild aggression. It would rush over her again and again, pushing her closer and closer to the edge. At first, she would be terrified and tried to fight against her elemental aggressor, but only to be struck with another power blast of wind. There were times where she would fall backwards and other times where she would fall face first. The first fall of the dream would always seem new and terrible. She would scream and look down at the ground growing closer and closer unable to tear her eyes away. Then, the same powerful gusts of wind would save her. It was like some sentient force was within the wind or perhaps it was a living thing. Elly would rise high into the air and fall like a leaf, but a sign that the dream was about to end would be whispers on the wind. They would first be very faint like the sound of rustling leaves, but they would grow louder and louder. It seemed like each time she had a dream, the whispering was getting closer to actual words. It was almost like someone was trying to tell her something.

Elly looked down and blinked seeing she had drank all her coffee whilst in the midst of her daydream. She hurried to the sink in the back of the shop to rinse it out. There was also a notepad and a cordless phone that rested near the counter where they would dress the flowers. There were rows of different ribbons and ties. They kept different vases in another room for fear of breaking them. She looked over the list of orders by the phone and made sure there weren't any orders that had been overlooked. Nothing seemed to be out of place. 

The high tone of the bell chimed through the shop. She looked around the doorway to see a young man stepping out of the rain and up to the counter. ""Hello!"" She smiled while walking from the back room to greet him. ""Is there anything I might assist you with today?"" It was the normal scripted response she told people when they entered the shop. It was so reflexive that she would say it even if someone who worked there walked in.</div>"
24822,Human-Born (1x1) [oOWonderKinOo]x[XxLyraxX],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76520-human-born-1x1-oowonderkinoo-x-xxlyraxx,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-13 20:28:00,XxLyraxX,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center"">Aquamarine eyes glanced around as they took in his surroundings. He didn’t come to shops like these much, having no need for flowers or other plant life. Why his uncle wanted to add flowers to the tables when it looked fine as it was escaped Raven’s understanding. Yet, it was Jack’s bar and he could add hot pink stools and put glitter all over the walls if he wanted. Raven sincerely hoped it didn’t come to that because knowing Jack, he would keep with the theme and make them wear pink aprons or something. Raven would rather not have suffer that so if Jack was walking safe lines and using flowers to decorate the place then Raven would gladly acquire as many flowers as his uncle desired.

The scent of flowers filled the air though it wasn’t unusual since it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> a flower shop. Thankfully Raven wasn’t allergic to pollen or he would be in trouble with the number flowers filling the place. As he continued to look around he noted how well kept it was. No petals scattered about the floor and the vases were neatly arranged. All in all it was a nice establishment, just not one he had real need for.

<font color=""lightblue"">”Hello! Is there anything I might assist you with today?”</font>

The piping up of a voice drew him from his investigation of the shop and turned his attention towards the counter. A girl around his age was standing there and he approached her, that piece of paper still clenched into his hand.  <font color=""violet"">”Yes. I am here to pick up an order for Jackson Perce. He said he received a call yesterday that stated the order was ready for pick-up.”</font> He said, tucking the paper into his pocket. 

Suddenly, his phone rang and he pulled it from his back-pocket, checking the screen before answering it. 

<font color=""lightgreen"">”Where are you lad?”</font>
<font color=""violet"">”You told me to pick up flowers, remember?”</font>
<font color=""lightgreen"">”I know but I need you to get back here right now. It seems all of the church across the street decided to have breakfast at the same time and Sal and I are swamped.”</font> 

Raven sighed through his nose before telling his uncle he would be there soon then turned to the girl. <font color=""violet"">”I’m gonna need that order quickly. I’m terribly sorry about this.”</font> He uttered. 

He stood there waiting patiently and when he was handed the order, however long that took, he would then bow his head to the girl before turning towards the door and heading out into the drizzle.</div></div>"

I understand."" She smiled politely and hurried to the back room with the order slip. ""Hmmm Perce Perce..."" She muttered to herself looking over the completed orders in the refrigerator. The order was a large cardboard box and another small one. Within the boxes were different assortments of spring flowers that were wrapped and carefully placed in order to reduce damage to them during their trip. The larger box was a little heavy for her, so it took a moment for her to heave it up and bring it to the counter. Elly tried her best to let the box down gently on the counter. ""You guys paid in advance so, here ya go."" She pushed the box closer to him. ""Be careful ok? It's getting worse out there."" When the young man reached down to take the box from counter, Elly's fingers brushed against his causing a strange tingly sensation to travel up her arm and throughout her body. ""Whoa!"" She breathed looking up at him. Was her eyes playing tricks on her or did the boys eyes seem to be brighter than before. It was almost as if they were glowing blue orbs resting in his head rather than eyes.

""Sorry about that! I didn't mean to zap you."" She laughed off the strangeness of the situation and opened the door for him since his arms were now full with his order. Elly's eyes followed the guy as he walked away and disappeared into the rainy distance. So strange, she looked down at the hand that brushed his. She excused it for static electricity but it didn't feel quite like that. It was like a chill that started from her fingertips and rushed throughout her body. Shaking the thoughts from her mind, she stepped back into the shop's back room only to spot a small cardboard box. ""Seriously?!"" She exclaimed taking the box and flipping the sign around to say 'We're closed'. She left a note to one of the other workers saying that she stepped out to take a delivery that had been left behind and would be back shortly. After locking up the shop, hurried after him. Careful not to shake the flower up too much, Elly walked with a brisk pace. Though she was only walking, she passed a couple people jogging which caused them to give her a double take. Her thoughts were on returning the order to their buyer rather than taking notice to how fast she was moving. Spotting the back of the boys shirt, she tried to pick up the pace without running for fear of hurting the flower. ""Hey! You forgot the small box!"" She called.</div>"

He was stuck on the odd occurrence that happened in the flower shop. He could have sworn that for a second after their hands had touched that her eyes had started glowing white. Like, the pupil completely disappeared and the eye was a solid color. It was rather freaky but it was probably because he was tired and was just seeing things. It had to be that because he was pretty sure human eyes were not supposed to do that unless of course someone was wearing contacts or something but that was beside the point. And what was up with that strange feeling that happened when their hands touched? The girl had laughed it off as just her shocking him but he didn’t think that was it. It didn’t <span class=""bb-i"">feel</span> like a static shock, it was more in the tingling category. It felt like for a moment like ice water had been injected directly into his veins. He could still feel the aftereffects even now and he just couldn’t figure out what could have caused it. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”Hey! Watch where you’re going!”</font> 

The sudden loud voice started Raven out of his revere and he managed to lurch to the side just in time to miss a pedestrian walking down the sidewalk. He glanced down anxiously at the flowers, hoping they were still intact and breathing a sigh of relief to find that they were. He raised his head to apologize to the man he almost collided with but he was nowhere to be found. Raven sighed, shook his head and continued on his way but the ringing of his cell phone stopped him before he could get very far. He stepped up against a shop so he wouldn’t get run over by the other people traversing the city and juggled the box of flowers around so he could fish his phone out of his pocket. After a few close calls where the box almost slipped out of his arms, Raven finally pulled the shrill device from the depths and answered it slightly breathlessly. 

<font color=""lightgreen"">”Where are you?”</font>
<font color=""violet"">”Calm down, I have the flowers and I’m on my way. How bad is it?”</font>
<font color=""lightgreen"">”Bad. A family of six showed up along with about five or six elderly couples. Please tell me you’re close.”</font>
<font color=""violet"">”I’m a few minutes away but I’m not getting any closer with you keeping me here talking on the phone.”</font>
<font color=""lightgreen"">”Smartass. Fine, see you in a few.”</font>

With that Jack hung up and Raven was struggling to put his phone back into his pocket when a call gave him pause. He turned back the way he came, phone half-way into his pocket. He felt a jolt of surprise run through him when he recognized the flower shop keeper was power-walking towards him. As soon as she got closer he realized what it was she had called to him and he blinked, looking down at the small box in her hands. <font color=""violet"">”Hey thanks. It would have sucked to get all the way back to the restaurant only to realize I forgot part of the order. I’m sorry you had to bring it all the way here though.”</font></div></div>"

Looking at the guy made her feel sorry for him. She knew the name of the business and it was very popular. Flower shops only saw tons of people at once for things like holidays, birthdays, prom, weddings or business socials. Plus, it was a Sunday. She would either have small orders or the occasional walk in where someone wanted to grab a quick bouquet for their love or dear family member. 

The door was still locked and no one was waiting out in front, which simply showed how slow their weekend mornings were. The bell chimed happily, the sign flipped back over to say that they were open. Elly reached out for her apron only to notice that she forgot to take it off. The peace and calm of the flower shop was something she knew she took for granted. There were days where it was tense but it was not near as bad as other places like restaurants or bars. People usually came and left unless they were picking out flowers for a wedding. Glancing over the store once again, she took her place behind the counter and pulled out some scissors and some paper. 

During slow days like this, she would make paper flowers. To the people who worked at the shop and saw flowers everyday, the act of receiving them as a gift seemed more like an act of laziness. It was always easy to buy flowers from work and give them to someone, but it often lacked a intimate touch. That feeling that the person really put a lot of thought into it before making the purchase. This was what drew Elly to making paper flowers. They required a lot of time and practice to make. Depending on what it was, the process would take days or weeks. Lately, she had been making small paper roses to give to the other people who worked with her. They could pin them to their aprons without fear of them dying or having to bear the putrid fake fragrance that was often put on plastic flowers.

Elly placed her iphone into a speaker system and poked at the screen until the internet radio turned on. The shop filled with the soft melodies of some new age song. She was a firm believer in mood music as well as vibrations from either talking or music helped keep plants healthy. The song picked up in beat causing her to hum along happily. What she wasn't aware of was the small bits of freshly cut paper were twitching and moving slowly across the counter. The pieces slid off the edge as if caught by a very gentle breeze, but there were no fans on or air conditioning on at the moment. The breeze seemed to have no origin, but it continued to carry the spare paper petals across the shop. Elly, who was cutting and placing the petals she was currently working with, was too preoccupied to notice the other missing petals.</div>"

He didn’t know what it was but there was something…different about her that he just couldn’t put his finger on. Deciding he didn’t need yet another mystery to keep him up at night, Raven put the matter out of his mind and continued on his way. He reached The Silver Dragon and spent a few minutes trying to juggle the two boxes in order to open the door. Finally, an elderly couple took pity on him and opened the door for him. After them a smiling of gratitude Raven headed inside, ears immediately noticing the sound volume of the room.

His uncle wasn’t joking, business had indeed pick up in the time he had been gone. Raven’s bright blue eyes scanned the floor, seeing Sal over by a family of six. He then spotted Jack over by a few church-goers. As the man turned he spotted Raven standing over by the register. <font color=""lightgreen"">”Oh thank god. Stow those boxes in my office and get back out here, I need you covering table five through seven.”</font> Raven nodded and did as he was asked before grabbing his apron. He headed over to three elderly woman and asked them what they would like to drink. After a few minutes of them criticizing his hair color, Raven finally managed to get their beverage order and quickly made his escape. 

Their peach tea was made, Raven delivered the glasses and had to suffer a few more minutes as they kept trying to get a breakfast on a discount. They just didn’t seem to understand that while the pancake combo was on discount <span class=""bb-i"">last week</span>, it wasn’t on a discount <span class=""bb-i"">this week</span>. After explaining it about five times they finally relented and ordered scrambled eggs and bacon instead. 

He let out a sigh as he gave their order to the kitchen and turned only to crash into Sal while he was carrying a tray of water. With a loud crash and the sound of braking glass, Raven was knocked to the floor with the water spilling all over him. Sal, in a flustered manner quickly apologized and gathered up the broken glass and disappeared into the kitchen. Raven sighed once more and sat up, dreading the fact that he would have to spend the rest of his shift soaking wet. He then noticed something weird. The floor around him was covered in water but he himself was perfectly dry. <font color=""violet"">”What the-“</font>
<font color=""lightgreen"">”Raven! Clean that up and then get back out here!”</font> 

Raven just shook his head in a confused manner and climbed to his feet, going off to find a mob. Why in the world was he dry? He should have been completely drenched in water but he wasn’t. It reminded him about his dream, where he had stayed dry even though he was underwater. What in the world was going on? First that weird event with the flower shop girl and now this. Was he going crazy? Was the lack of sleep finally taking its toll on him?</div></div>"

Some people were just browsing with excited whispers like, ""If I were to get married, I would have this color but in orchids."". These types of conversations affected Elly differently depending on the day. Some times, she would find it funny, but other days, she would find it rather annoying. ""Why don't you have any natural aqua colored daisies?"" Asked one woman who seemed to be upset. ""I'm sorry, they aren't in very high demand and the ones we sell aren't naturally grown that way."" Elly explained calmly.
""What do you mean they aren't grown naturally? Flowers grow in every color don't they?"" This notion that their shop had a secret cache of natural flowers with every color, shade and hue imaginable was something that all those who worked at the shop had to suffer. Not wanting to be rude, Elly explained that they would have to order that particular kind of daisy if she was willing to wait a few days. This didn't seem to go over well either. The woman looked very much like an over decorated bird who had just been ruffled the wrong way.
""I know the owner of this shop and she would go to great lengths to see her customers satisfied."" She sniffed.
Elly raised an eyebrow at her and sighed,""I'm terribly sorry, the soonest date I can get those daisies here for you is a little less than a week from now.""
""Tcht! You should have had them here in the first place! Aqua is a natural spring color! All the other shops have aqua decor!"" The woman began shouting.

She wasn't sure what was worse, the fact that this woman thought there was a flower for every color under the son or the fact that her shop not having a her particular color appear out of thin air was a crime. Then the woman mentioned her aunt who owned the place. Of course she would go to great lengths to see a customer happy. She would probably do what Elly was doing now, which was trying to get the flowers sent to them as soon as possible. The door chimed again and a tall thin woman with dreaded hair pulled back with a large rubber band entered the shop while tying her apron on. The stitched on name read, 'Hyacinth'.
 ""Hi Ell!"" She smiled then it quickly disappeared when she saw the purple faced woman at the front counter. ""Oh boy.."" the girl whispered skating behind the counter next to Elly.

""Well, I guess I'll take my business to a more competent shop!"", the woman roared intentionally being loud so that everyone was watching.
""I'll call the owner and tell her what horrible service I received! I'm never recommending this terrible place to anyone at my business social."" With that, the woman stormed out. Both Elly and Hyacinth stood perfectly still as well as the couple of people who were still browsing. Several seconds passed, then Elly felt it was safe to breath again. ""Yeeesh! It's the weekend, why get your undies in a bunch over plants anyway?"" Hyacinth sighed trying to lighten the mood. She gave Elly a pat on the back then spotted the small set of paper roses. ""Ahh you made more!"" 
Elly blushed a little and tried to squeeze out a small laugh after receiving a verbal assault from a very displeased customer.
""Roses are getting easier to make than tulips."" She grinned wiping bits of paper into her hand to put in the trash.
""Do you mind if I step out for a sec Hye? I just need to shake 'that' off for a bit.""
""Only if I get to keep this one!"" Hyacinth chimed holding up a particularly well crafted paper flower.
""Sure, it's yours""

Elly stepped out the back entrance where the dumpster was along with a few storage crates that used to house vases and large wheels of wire. They had already been stored in the back of the shop somewhere. ""I know the owner of the shop! I can't believe you don't have any aqua colored daisies"" Elly mocked while kicking the dumpster. People did not seem to understand that their shop was NOT this fantastical place where all you could find all of your botanical dreams come true. People like that woman made Elly seriously wish should could get a job that didn't deal with the public.
She huffed and paraded around the back alley in an exaggerated version of the woman. The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt. She kicked the dumpster again, but this time a gust of wind cut up against the side of the dumpster and pulled the cover back for a moment only to have it smash back down loudly. Elly looked up the ally way then back down. A freak wind gust? As soon as it came, it went. This was a pleasant distraction though. It had successfully taken her mind of things. ""Everything ok out here?"" Called Hyacinth.
""Yea! I'm coming back in"" Not thinking twice about it, she hurried back into the shop.</div>"
24828,Human-Born (1x1) [oOWonderKinOo]x[XxLyraxX],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76520-human-born-1x1-oowonderkinoo-x-xxlyraxx,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-17 06:09:00,XxLyraxX,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">As the crowd picked up, the water incident was put to the back of his mind as he ran around like a chicken with its head cut off. Thankfully, when Sarah and Ryan clocked in the mad rush died down slightly though it picked right back up as a large lunch crowd spilled through the doors. He didn’t know if it was lack of sleep or simply he was having an off day but Raven found himself messing up orders and almost running into the other waiters as the day dragged on. After nearly colliding with Sal who had been carrying three bowls of soup, Jack finally sent Raven to the kitchen to help with the cooking and the dishes. 

Raven sighed deeply into the soapy water his arms were currently submerged in, he gazed down at the sink. The accident from earlier crept back into his mind as he frowned thoughtfully. He scooped a small handful of water up and flung it at his shirt before he could second-guess himself. The water hit him in the chest and he yelp as the water soaked the front of his apron. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”You’ll wanna be careful there Raven, nothings more uncomfortable than wet clothes.”</font> Pete, the cook spoke up as he eyed Raven from his station at the stove. Even he had noticed how tired the boy looked but he knew that if Raven didn’t want him to know he wouldn’t get a peep out of the boy. And so he let the lad be and turned back to the orders filing in. Raven gazed down at the dark stain, perplexed. Had he simply imagined what had had happened earlier. His eyes then fell on the bin next to the stove. Glinting at the top of the pile was none other than the broken glass from the mugs that had been dropped. No, he couldn’t have imagined it because that would mean he was having a seriously crazy hallucination. 

He continued washing the dishes, wondering if he was truly losing his mind. As the day continued to mosey on by, Raven grew more and more frustrated as he kept making mistakes. By the time his shift was over he was ready to punch something. He gave a curt good-bye to Jack and escaped out the door before the man could catch him. He sucked in a lung-full of the air before releasing it slowly and tucking his hands into his pockets as he headed in the direction of his house. After a few minutes he unlocked the door, calling out a greeting. There was a scampering of feet and soon his kitten, Blaze came barreling into the living room and threw himself at Raven’s feet as soon as his shoes had been kicked off. 

Raven chuckled and scooped up the feline, petting his head. <font color=""violet"">”Well hello to you too.”</font> Kitten tucked into his arms Raven made his way to the kitchen, flicking lights on as he went. As he opened the cabinet, Blaze perked his ears up; knowing exactly what it was that Raven was reaching for. The kitten was placed onto the floor along with a bowl of wet-food. Raven crouched there a moment, petting his pet’s back. <font color=""violet"">”Blaze, do you think I’m crazy?”</font> He murmured. The soot black kitten paused in his eating and looked as his master with large blue eyes, giving a meow as he licked his lips and went back to chowing down.

The boy smiled as he stood. <font color=""violet"">”I don’t know if that was supposed to be comforting but I’m going to take it for what I will.”</font> He then exited the kitchen and headed to the bathroom. After a long soak in the tub, a sandwich for dinner and a little bit of TV., Raven headed to bed. He placed Blaze on the bed and the kitten curled up on his pillow. Raven smiled and laid down after shifting the feline over a little bit. He received a disgruntled mew in return and he laughed as he turned out the light, settling under the blankets as his mind started fading away into dreamland.

<span class=""bb-i"">The water shimmered around him, bubbles escaping his mouth and floating to the surface. Like he did every time in this dream, he panicked and struggled to reach the surface before it dawned on him that he could breathe just fine. He floated there for a few moments, soon realizing that his clothes were perfectly dry. He frowned, looking around the crystal waters that encased him. Suddenly, something brushed passed him and he jerked back. His eyes widened and his mouth opened in a silent scream, his mother’s dead eyes staring back on his lifelessly. 

He floundered back, eyes wheeling wildly as his heart thumped erratically in his chest. In the distance, a black shape was slowly swimming towards him. Already panicked, Raven turned around only to meet the glazed over eyes of his father as the body bobbed gently in front of him. Another scream welled up inside him…</span>

And this time it did escape, echoing around the house as he bolted into an upright position. He panted heavily, eyes wheeling around frantically as his heart tried to beat its way out of his chest. <font color=""violet"">”J-Just…Just a dream…It was just a dream..”</font> He whispered in a hoarse voice, clicking on the bedside lamp. As the golden glow filled the room, Raven felt himself calm. He wiped a hand over his face, feeling even more tired than when he had laid down. He glanced at his phone and groaned at the time. 4:05 a.m. stared up at him from the illuminated screen. Knowing he wasn’t going back to sleep any time soon, Raven swung his legs over to the side of the bed and stood. As he did a hiss emitted from under his bed.

Frowning, Raven knelt down and looked under the skirt. Blaze crouched there, spine arched and hair standing on end. It took a few minutes for Raven to coax his startled pet out from his sanctuary but he finally managed it and he petted Blaze soothingly as he made his way to the living room. He laid down and turned on the T.V. onto the news and reclined there. Before he knew it his eyes had slid shut and he fell fast asleep. He woke up a few hours later and with a glance at the clock on the wall and a muttered curse, he jumped to his feet and dressed as fast as he could. 

He locked up the house and sped towards his work. He received a reprimanding look from Jack when he arrived at last, out of breath but the man left him be as he clocked in. Raven stood there a moment, catching his breath before grabbing his apron and starting the day.</div>"

Hyacinth and Elly closed up the shop together, then Elly made sure that Hyacinth got on to her bus safely. After locking the shop up, she made her way to her apartment above. Her cell-phone chimed and it was her aunt. Taking a deep breath, she answered. ""I'm guessing that you got a very angry customer today?"" Her aunt sighed across the line.
""I doubt you guessed it. She contacted you right?""
""Yea.."" There was a long pause between the both of them. Elly could hear her aunt breathing on the other side of the line. ""I tried to get her the blue tinted daisies she wanted but they had to be ordered."" There was a tone like she was trying to make some sort of excuse for what happened though she knew she did the most she could with the situation. ""Yea, I know. You did what you could. Do you think we should order some and keep them in the shop for a couple weeks? Maybe we can use that woman's aggravation to our advantage.""
""Do you really think people would buy them?"" Elly asked sighing softly while tossing a microwave dinner in for a couple minutes. ""We can order a small case of them and see how it goes."" The thought that the shop was actually going to have badly colored daisies because of that impossible woman made Elly want to kick something. Trying to stay calm ,she asked. ""You want me to order them tonight or tomorrow morning?""
""Tomorrow is fine."" There was another long pause. It was hard to talk about things other than work. Aside from the shop, there wasn't much to their relationship. ""Well,"" Elly yawned. ""I'll text you once the order has been finalized.""
""That sounds good. Good night Elly""
""Night"" Pressing the end button on her iphone screen, Elly tipped her head back and let out a loud aggravated groan.

After a long hot shower, Elly stepped into her room. It was filled with little decorations that one would see in gardening sections and flower shops. There was a few wind chimes tinkling lightly as she passed, some sun catchers around her windows and a different assortment of stone figures like toads and turtles. Sinking into her bed after a long day was wonderful. Sleep would come rather easily that night. Her dreams where the same as before. She was moving about like some sort of airborne spirit when the whispering started. ""oming..."" She heard. Then she woke up. The wind chimes were sounded more so than normal and she looked towards the windows to see if she had accidentally left them open. She had not.

The shop opened again bright and early but this time Hyacinth was there to help her. Still drowsy, she waved to her co-worker and started a pot of coffee. ""You look like she just came out of a coma."" Her friend joked while carefully pinning one of Elly's paper roses on to her apron. ""Yea. Have you ever had one of those dreams that seemed to last a long time and when you wake up you feel tired?""
""Yea?""
""I guess that's what it is. I had a long dream"" Elly sighed. She didn't want to share this morning though. Getting onto the computer for a moment, Elly clicked for google and typed in the name of one of their greenhouses. ""What is it? Did the boss ask you to order something?"" Hyacinth had a knack for guessing things like that. ""Yea, I have to order a case or two of those horribly colored blue-tinted daisies."" 
""No way. That hag called her?""
""Yep, and she thinks we should at least try to see if they'll sell."" They both sighed. Elly finished the order and texted her aunt once it confirmed. 'Thanks' was her response.

The day moved on at a steady pace. Elly and Hyacinth took turns watching the front of the shop while the other worked on prep. Elly had been preparing vases with different varieties of flowers and decorated them with warm pastel colored ribbon. Spring, thought it was a time for bright colors, there were also more subtle ones like pastels. She huffed thinking about that horrible woman from the day before. It really urked her thinking that they were going to have those horrid things on display just because that woman whined to the shop owner. Thinking about it caused Elly to tie a ribbon too tightly making it pucker in an unattractive way. 

""Hey Ell! Wanna get some air and grab us some lunch?"" Called Hyacinth from the front of the store. ""Sure, where from?"" 
""Let's try that Silver Dragon place."" Shrugging, she took off her apron and grabbed her phone. ""I don't really know what they have there."" Elly frowned walking up to the front counter with her friend. 
Hyacinth nodded. ""Just call me when you get there and tell me what they have ok?""
""Sounds like a plan.""

Elly stepped out of the shop and took a bus towards the restaurant. All evidence of rain had been long since dried up. More people were bustling about since it was lunch hour. This now occurred to Elly that the place might be packed with lunch rush people. She was just about to call Hyacinth when she sighed. It would be a nice long break from the shop. Instead she decided that she would text her if it took a long time.
Hopping off the bus, she walked a little ways before reaching the restaurant. The thick smell of cooked food filled her nostrils and she smiled. Now she was hungry.</div>"
24830,Human-Born (1x1) [oOWonderKinOo]x[XxLyraxX],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76520-human-born-1x1-oowonderkinoo-x-xxlyraxx,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-20 00:03:00,XxLyraxX,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">The morning had been a busy one, much more so with people having to go to work and stopping in for a quick coffee and a bite to eat. Raven still felt dead on his feet, another sleepless night weighing down on him. He didn’t know what was causing these dreams and last nights had been particularly harsh. He used to have nightmares about the boat accident when he was younger but they had stopped bothering him. Until last night. He honestly didn’t know why he had dreamed about his parents last night so suddenly. And that black shape had been there too. He wondered why. 

Gah, so many questions and not enough answers. Raven shook his head sharply, scolding himself. Now was not the time to get lost inside his head. Sal had called in sick and Jack had been unable to get Sarah and Ryan to come in early because they had school or other business to attend to. Jack himself was buried under paperwork and so it all fell onto Raven to wait the tables. And of course it seemed like every person that normally came in for a coffee all decided to come in at the exact same time. 

If Raven thought he had ran around like a chicken with its head cut off yesterday he was sorely mistaken as he struggled to carry a tray laden with mugs of hot coffee. He had to walk slowly so he wouldn’t spill anything and he was given grief about it when he arrived at the tables. The customers were cranky at having to be up so early and they all seemed to think that they were the only one he was serving. Thankfully after the morning rush was over things calmed down. He was able to take a breather and eat a quick bite to eat since he hadn’t been able to eat breakfast in his mad rush to get out of the house. 

He then groaned when he realized he had forgotten to feed Blaze. The kitten wasn’t going to let him forget it anytime soon. The last time Raven had accidentally forgotten to feed the feline, Blaze had shredded every magazine in the house as well tear up a pair of his favorite socks. From then on Raven learned to feed his pet or risk the destruction of anymore of his clothing. Hoping his wardrobe would be safe from Blaze’s wrath, Raven threw away the peel of the banana he had been eating and drank a glass of water before getting back to work. The lull didn’t last long as the lunch hour grew nearer and soon Raven was once again running around. Thankfully Ryan and Sarah arrived but the place was packed and so all three of them weren’t given a break. 

Lunch hour was usually chaotic but Raven didn’t think he had ever seen it this crazy. Did the whole city deicide to come to The Silver Dragon for lunch? It sure looked that way. Thankfully he had yet to run into anyone today and he was hoping it would stay that way and he would avoid getting soaked. Of course Fate always had to get a laugh at his expense. 

<font color=""violet"">”Here you are sir.”</font> Raven said as he set a hamburger and a glass of coke in front of a man dressed in a suit with a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The man took one look at the food in front of him then glared at Raven. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”What kind of fool do you take me for? I didn’t order this garbage! I asked for a water and a salad, are you <span class=""bb-i"">trying</span> to make me fat?!”</font> Raven blinked in surprise because he distinctly remembered this man ordering no such thing. Raven then apologized and said he would take it back. Clearly it was not what the man wanted and so he then began to rant at Raven. The boy’s facial expression into a neutral visage, turning into an emotionless mask as the man continued to explain in great detail how Raven was such a stupid and incompetent child. The man didn’t seem to like the fact that he wasn’t getting a raise out of Raven and so he stood, face very red. He then snatched up his glass of coke and upended it over Raven’s head. 

His mask slipped, revealing a stunned expression as the man shoved past him and stalked towards the door. Raven stood there, soda plastering his hair to his head and dripping down his face. He slowly turned, aquamarine eyes tracking the man as he headed for the door. Rage, swift and hot, surged through his body and his fists clenched. As he retrained himself from going after the man, the customer passed next to a shocked Sal standing there holding a tray full of glasses of water. Suddenly, the glasses tipped over. The water would have just splashed to the floor but somehow covered the man’s suit. He cried out, staring down incredulously at his soaked clothing. A little boy sitting with mother started laughing, the woman trying her best to quiet her son as he pointed at the business man. 

Said man’s face grew red and he stormed out. Raven continued to stand there, having no clue what just happened. The water should just have fallen to the floor but it landed on the man. How? He hadn’t been close enough for it to soak him so. Perplexed and confused he jumped slightly upon feeling a hand on his shoulder. He glanced up into Ryan’s sympathetic eyes. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”You okay man? That was rough. I have a spare uniform in my locker if you want to borrow it. You can just give it back to me tomorrow.”</font>

Raven nodded in agreement and followed along as Ryan led him to the back. Sarah lent him a pack of wipes and so with that and the uniform in hand Raven locked himself in the bathroom to get cleaned up. Thankfully the coke missed his pants but his shirt was absolutely sopped. He threw it off and it hit the linoleum with a wet slap. He turned on the facet and ducked his head under it, running his fingers through it. He pumped some hand soap into his hand and lathered it through his hair. He knew it wouldn’t work as well as shampoo but hopefully it would help rid his hair of the stickiness the soda caused.

After rinsing his hair out thoroughly, he then got down to business of ridding his skin of the rest of the soda. After going through most of the wipes he finally was soda free. He shrugged on Ryan’s uniform shirt and fingered the ends of his hair. Drying it was out of the option unless he felt like trying to use paper towels. Deciding it could just air dry he shoved his soda soaked shirt into a plastic bag that was used for food deliveries, Raven exited the bathroom and stowed the bag in his locker to take home later. He took a deep breath and entered the main room again. He shot Ryan and Sarah grateful smiles, turning to survey the room. He heard the bell over to door chime and he turned to the door to welcome the new customer and show them to a seat.

A jolt of surprise ran through him as he recognized the girl from the flower shop. He blinked before mentally slapping himself and running through the rehearsed lines. <font color=""violet"">”Welcome to The Silver Dragon. Table for one?”</font> He asked, grabbing a menu and some silverware.</div>"

Glancing down at his name tag, she finally got to know his name so it wouldn't be as awkward. ""Oh! Umm ...Raven! Do you guys do to-go? I promised my friend I would would call her once I get to look at the menu! I'm sorry for being a bother!"" Looking around, she saw that the place was packed to almost full complicity. Now she really felt bad for coming. In a way she was only adding to the workload. More people came in behind her and she stepped forward to make room for them. The place was too crowded and too loud. How could anyone handle this regularly? Elly missed the quiet of the flower shop now. Another couple people came in causing her to step forward again but she accidentally bumped into one of the people standing beside her. ""Oops! Sorry!"", She cringed stumbling away. Elly seemed to have lost her balance and flailed reaching out for anything that would keep her from falling.

 Her hand grabbed someone's elbow but suddenly everything changed. It was silent in a way but her ears felt like they were full of something, maybe, water? Actually, even her vision was blurred now. Everything seemed murky, where..what happened? Everything was in a blue tent like she was in a pool. No, it was bigger than a pool. Was she underwater? How did that happen? This she gasped suddenly realizing that if this was water, she needed to get air. In reality, Elly's eyes looked wide and oddly bright. She blinked seeing the restaurant then in another blink of an eye the depths of a watery pool of some sort. Was she hallucinating? That had to be it, but why? Still holding on to someone, she tried to clear the fog in her head. She could hear people asking her is she was ok. Too many people. Too much noise. Elly needed out, she needed..air. It was like she was drowning, but she wasn't. Bits of her hallucination were sifting through. The people around her looked distorted like she was in a fish bowl looking out at them. Still having trouble breathing she coughed and spluttered. Do you need me to call an ambulance? Are you ok? She's going to faint. All these words made her feel like each voice was a body lying against her, smothering her. ""I need air!"" She cried, and with that gusts of powerful wind burst through the front door and open windows. It was like some sort of invisible serpents were causing table clothes, decorations and napkins to fly about. Everyone was so distracted by the havoc that Elly managed to regain her footing, let go of whoever she was clutching so tightly for support, then stumble out door still coughing and gasping. 

Still very disoriented, her hand trailed along side of the wall of the restaurant as she shuffle around to the back. Her legs gave out due to lack of air and she fell to her knees in the lot behind the establishment. The same odd wind that had surged through the main dinning hall, seemed to escape and revolved around Elly for a moment. Her eyes began to glow brightly and she got her first clear breath of air. The wind died down shortly after she re-established a normal breathing pattern. Elly began to shakily look up. What the hell happened?</div>"

She bumped into someone and lost her balance. Raven instinctively lunged for her and caught her elbow. Suddenly, he felt wind tearing at his hair and his eyes widened when he realized that he could see the street far below him. What…Where…Where was he?! He blinked and he could feel the solid ground beneath his feet, someone clenching onto him tightly but then in the next instant he was in the air again. His stomach churned as he realized how far he was up and his breathing began to speed up in panic. Heights. Why the hell did it have to be heights?! Wait..if he was this high, what was holding him up? 

As if the thought broke a spell that was suspending him in the air, he began to fall. The wind tore at his hands and clothing as his stomach dropped as if he was on a roller-coaster. A scream lodged in his throat, a choked sound being the only thing that escaped. He closed his eyes and he could see the restaurant again but it was like he was seeing it from afar. He was clenching onto to something tightly as if to anchor himself. Raven? Raven are you ok? What’s wrong? He could hear voices faintly over the wind screaming in his ear. The noise bumped around in his head and made him feel dizzy. His vision blurred and he was seeing the ground coming closer and closer. The scream that was lodged in his throat did escape then and it echoed inside his head, the sound being thrown away by the fierce wind. 

Suddenly, he heard a voice cry out clearly as well as a large gust of wind hit him. Whatever he had been clutching to disappeared and he would have fallen forward if not for the strong arms that wrapped around him and supported him upright. He was seeing double now, the blurry restaurant and the street he was about the crash into. Right before impact everything went dark and his body jolted. When his eyes fluttered open, the world was spinning. Jack was staring down at him in concern as noise echoed around him. Something about an ambulance…Raven felt dizzy and his breathing was coming out in terrified pants. Jack was saying something but his ears were ringing and he couldn’t make out what it was. Finally, after a few minutes of taking deep breaths the dizziness faded and he was able to sit up from here Jack had laid him out on the ground. 

His uncle protested but Raven tried to tell him he was fine. <font color=""lightgreen"">”Fine? Fine?! You looked like you were having a panic attack. That is not fine!”</font> Raven was a lot of words, not really sure what had happened himself. There was a loud noise outside that resembled the screech of sirens and the doors burst open as two EMP’s came in and knelt next to Raven. After checking him over and after answering countless questions, the medics declared that there was nothing wrong with the boy. His uncle wasn’t convinced and after the medics left, he lead Raven to his office. 

<font color=""lightgreen"">”What happened out there? One minute you were fine and the next you were acting like you were about to faint. Are you okay and don’t try and tell me it was nothing.”</font> Jack said, arms crossed over his chest as he stared at his nephew. Raven stared down at his hands. <font color=""violet"">”I don’t know what happened. I guess maybe it was the lack of sleep finally catching up with me.”</font> He finally said. Jack sighed, knowing he wasn’t going to get anything more out of his nephew. He then told the boy to go home and get some rest and that he didn’t need to come in tomorrow. Raven tried to protest but anything he said fell on deaf ears and so Raven stowed his apron away and grabbed his jacket before he was on his way home.</div></div>"

With shaky hands, she pulled it out of her pocket and answered.
""Where are you? Some sort of freak accident happened at the Silver Dragon and you never called!"" cried a frantic voice on the other end of the line. It took Elly a moment to realize where she was. Looking around with glassy eyes and haggard breath, she replied, ""I'm behind the restaurant.""
""Why on earth are you there?!"" Hyacinth cried, then calmed herself. ""Never mind, I'm closing up the shop and coming to get you. Stay put!""
The call cut out and she sat there in the cold ground rather lamely. Everything that happened seemed to 
 have left her feeling numb. The sirens, the commotion going on out front. What happened anyway? She was having a difficult time remembering. All she could think about was how nice it was to be taking full, clear breaths of air.

It took about 20 minutes for Hyacinth to find her and even longer to help Elly back to the flower shop. The entire time, she kept asking her what happened only to have Elly remind her that she didn't know. She remembered stepping into the restaurant, it being very crowded then she had trouble breathing. ""I guess I just panicked?"" she said, while they were both sitting in her apartment now with cups of coffee. Hyacinth put a big blanket around her shoulders. They were sitting in her small living room that also counted as her dining room. The apartment was decorated much like her room. There were little wind chimes and light catchers everywhere. ""It sounds horrible."" 
Elly shrugged. ""What about the shop?"" 
""I had some people come in early since it was an emergency."" This meant she would be receiving a call from her aunt sometime that day.
Elly sat there quietly. She knew she felt better but also wanted to rest. Even though her job wasn't very difficult or stressful, she wanted a break. Hyacinth got up and took their finished mugs of coffee. ""I'm going to run to the store and grab some stuff. You stay here and rest.""
As Hyacinth left, Elly went got up to take a shower. 

The hot steam only made her feel dizzy and smothered so she resorted to opening the window in her bathroom. Her first thought was to soak in a bath, but thinking about that strange hallucination, she decided it would be better to take a shower. Now wrapped in a towel, she began wrapping her  hair when she noticed little flecks of dry skin. She scratched at it only to see the skin come off like a scab and underneath was a smooth but hard texture beneath it, sorta like a nail but it was pearly white. Elly found more while she was drying herself. They were everywhere, her arms, legs shoulder and some parts of her chest near the collar bone. Maybe it was stress? She really hadn't been stressed though. Other than the woman from yesterday, she had been pretty relaxed aside from wanting to take a break from the shop.

Fully dressed and hair dried, Elly curled up on the couch and plaid around with her cell phone again. The whole apartment seemed stuffy for some reason, so she hopped up and opened all the windows. The breeze was relaxing and it made the whole space breath better. Settling back onto the couch, the apartment door opened and Hyacinth came in with a bag of produce. ""I know your lazy butt could use something that wasn't flash frozen."" She smiled. This only made Elly roll her eyes while she walked over to help her friend with the groceries. ""I don't like cooking Hye you know that."" She frowned looking at what she brought. ""I'll cook it, you need to rest anyway."" Hyacinth seemed determined to fuss over her. Then she jumped mumbling about forgetting to check on the others in the shop below. She ran out the door leaving Elly with all the unwashed produce and other groceries. 

Turning on the faucet, she started cleaning the produce until she caught a whiff of something that smelled wonderful. Her nostrils flared as she sniffed around for a bit. Her hands seized the delectable treat and she took in a deep breath of it's scent. It was enough to make her mouth water. She slowly opened her mouth and bit in, the texture was tough, but she tore it away and continued to chomp on it hungrily. It wasn't until she heard someone coming up the stairs that she realized that she had just bitten through the husk of a pineapple and pineapple juice was all over the floor as well as her mouth, hands and shirt. As the door was opening, she ran with the pineapple in hand to the bathroom and dripping juice everywhere.

""Elly? You ok? Where is the pineapple?""</div>"
24834,Human-Born (1x1) [oOWonderKinOo]x[XxLyraxX],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76520-human-born-1x1-oowonderkinoo-x-xxlyraxx,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-24 22:40:00,XxLyraxX,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center"">After a stop at the store for stuff to cook for dinner the walk to his apartment was quick and soon he was unlocking the door and stepping through. The sight that greeted him made him wince. There sat Blaze, the remains of a pair of Raven’s underwear scattered around the feline. The kitten was glaring as best as an animal could glare, tail waving stiffly behind the kitten. Raven sighed as he knelt in front of the feline. <font color=""violet"">”I know, I forgot to feed you but I can make it up to you.”</font> He said, shaking the bag in his hand. Blaze gave the bag a curious look, padding over to sniff it. Raven stood and the kitten followed him to the kitchen. He washed out the cat’s food bowl and opened the can of cat food he had bought. Upon smelling the food, Blaze’s eyes lit up and began to mew and paw at Raven pants gently. The boy laughed at his pet’s behavior and set the bowl down, watching Blaze pounce on it. He normally bought the cheap cat food because he didn’t always have to money to buy the kind the cat loved. But he had today in way of an apology. 

After Blaze had finished eating he rubbed against Raven, purring. Raven laughed as he petted the kitten before standing and unloading everything else he had bought. He had been in the mood for spaghetti tonight. He set a pan of water on to boil and set another pan on the stove and added oil. As he waited for the pan to heat up he grabbed a bowl and began mixing ground beef, garlic and other ingredients. Soon he was humming to himself as he rolled the meat into balls. As the motions became automatic, his mind drifted away to what had happened this afternoon. It puzzled him. What in the world happened? Did he hallucinate? But it seemed so <span class=""bb-i"">real</span>. And what happened to that girl? He hadn’t seen her when he came back to his sense. Had he scared her off when he had that freak out? Probably. He couldn’t blame her really. He just hoped he hadn’t scared her too badly. 

As his mind continued to drift, he began placing the meatballs in the oil. Sizzling filled the kitchen and soon, the smell of cooking meat. He added the noodles to the water and turned the meatballs every now and then. His stomach grumbled in hungry as he began unpacking some fruit he had bought as well. He decided a snack before dinner couldn’t hurt and without thinking he brought the fruit he was holding to his mouth and sank his teeth into it. He tore off a piece, chewed, swallowed then repeated the actions. The taste filled his mouth, running over his taste buds. A mew suddenly brought him from his daze and he blinked down in shock at the orange he held. He…He had been eating it, peel and all. The orange fell from his limp fingers and landed on the cabinet as he stared down at his hand. He didn’t understand. When he was younger he had been dared to eat an orange peel. He had been sick for the rest of the day. He knew some people ate orange peels but he just couldn’t stomach them. So…how was he able to eat the orange just now? 

As if his stomach finally realized just what he had eaten, it lurched and he lunged for the trashcan just before he retched. After a few minutes he rinsed his mouth out under the tap. He leaned under the cabinet before throwing the orange away and cleaning the stickiness off the surface. Luckily, he barely saved his meatballs from burning and as he added them to the sauce he realized that after what just happened he wasn’t all that hungry. He mitotically finished everything before loading half of the food into bowls and heading next door. Mrs. Forester answered and blinked in surprise at the boy standing at her doorstep. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”Hello, Raven. What can I do for you?”</font> Raven gave her a small smile before holding up the bowls. <font color=""violet"">”I got a little too carried away making spaghetti and I was wondering if you would like some?”</font> The woman smiled. <font color=""lightblue"">”Of course, you know my family and I would never turn down your cooking. It’s the best thing we have ever tasted.”</font> A small blush crept over his features as he handed over the bowls and waved goodnight. As the woman was closing the door, Raven heard Mr. Forester ask who it was. Upon hearing his wife’s reply on who it was and what he brought them, Raven blushed darker at the sound of Mr. Forester’s whoop of delight. 

Raven returned home and put the rest of the food away in the fridge for later. After that he headed to the bathroom to draw a bath. He added some lavender scented oil before stripping and sinking into the warm water. He sighed, leaning his head against the side of the tub as he closed his eyes. <font color=""violet"">”What a weird day.”</font> He murmured, allowing himself to sink under the water. He kept his eyes closed, the peaceful silence around him causing him to relax. He didn’t know how long he had been under there for but after about ten minutes he opened his eyes and gasped, shooting up into a sitting position. Water dripped down his face and he wiped it out of his eyes. He had been under for far longer than he should have been able to hold his breath. Wait…had he been holding his breath at all? He wasn’t really thinking about when he went under. Deciding it was high time for bed, he drained the water and got out. He reached for his towel and began drying off. He happened to glance at himself in the mirror and froze. He frowned, stepping closer to examine what it was that caught his attention.

He raised a hand and picked at the dry skin he saw, eyes widening when it fell off to show a black-blue spot. He ran a finger over it, surprised at the hard, smooth texture he felt. He tried to pull it off but hissed in pain. As he stared at himself he noticed that there were more of the black spots scattered all over his arms, chest, and legs. Worry and fear ran through him. Was this some type of disease?! He began pacing around his small bathroom, fingers picking idly at the black spots on his arms. He took a deep breath. <font color=""violet"">”Just calm down. Go to bed. You've already had one hallucination today, this is probably just another.”</font> 

He finished drying off and pulled on his night clothes. Soon he was turning out the light and sliding under the blankets. Blaze curled up next to him and he stroked the kitten, feeling his eyes becoming heavy with sleep. It wasn’t long before he was fast asleep.</div></div>"

What on earth caused her to do that? How could she bite through the husk of a pineapple without even noticing? It didn't even seem hard to chew. ""Elly? Did something happen to the pineapple?"" she could hear Hyacinth calling from the kitchen. 
Looking at the pineapple then at her juice covered shirt, she couldn't explain something that she could barely understand herself. So, she lied.
""I somehow dropped it and it cracked all over me and the floor. I guess it's rotten or something."" 
""Ick! Well, get cleaned up and I'll cook us some stir fry.""
After watching off again and changing shirts, she noticed more scaly bumps on her arms. She tried putting on some lotion thinking it was a rash, but it didn't seem to help. Deciding to deal with it later, Elly pulled on a long sleeved shirt and walked into the kitchen. 
Hyacinth was already cooking the ingredients by the time she came to the counter. ""Smells good."" Elly smiled leaning over the counter to look. 
""I'm glad you got all cleaned up. I'm guessing you tossed the pineapple?""
""Yea, I'll take out the trash tomorrow so it won't stink up the place.""

After dinner, Elly began to feel ill and went to the restroom. Her gagging and coughing could be heard from the table.
Tapping gently on the bathroom door, Hyacinth winced hearing Elly groan from within. ""Are you ok in there?"" Then there was a belching noise. ""I thought I cooked the fish enough."" Elly responded with another cough and the sound of the toilet flushing. 
""I'm sorry Elly..""
""...Its okay.."" She whined from her fixed spot near the toilet. ""Maybe it's just your nerves affecting your stomach."" Hyacinth suggested. Elly hacked again and saw bits of pineapple with stir fry. ""I dunno..."" She grumbled laying her head on the toilet seat.
""I'm going to call your aunt and tell her you got some bug and can't some to work tomorrow. That way you can chill and have a stress free day. Sound good?"" After a long pause she let out a feeble 'uh huh'. 

Her friend left after cleaning up and helping Elly get in the bed. Elly sighed looking at the 'rash' that had progressed more since her after dinner bathroom visit. It was a long and difficult day. She thought back to the restaurant and the host Raven. Everything seemed to happen after she saw him. Then again maybe it was the stress of being around so many people at once. Why did she panic, hallucinate, develop a rash, eat pineapple in its rawest state? Why did all this seem to hit her at once? Could it all just be stress from having the same mundane pattern over and over? Perhaps a day of rest would make all these problems go away. Maybe she would wake up and feel better. She hoped so. Rolling over, Elly fell asleep. Little did she know, the bizarre happenings were just beginning.</div>"
24836,Human-Born (1x1) [oOWonderKinOo]x[XxLyraxX],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76520-human-born-1x1-oowonderkinoo-x-xxlyraxx,"['Modern', '1x1', 'Fantasy', 'Casual', 'Advanced']",2015-02-28 05:52:00,XxLyraxX,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-center""><font color=""lightblue"">The familiar sight greeted him the moment he closed his eyes only this time he started on the edge of a building. The visual of the ground far below him made his head spin and he tried to take a step backwards but his legs wouldn’t move. The sudden pressure against his hand made him aware that he wasn’t alone in standing on this precipice. He turned his head slowly, afraid even a little movement would cause his body to decide it wanted to go forward. He blinked in shock at the sight of snow white hair being snapped around by the wind and golden eyes smiling at him. What was the girl from the flower shop doing up here? He frowned. <font color=""violet"">”What are we doing up here?”</font> He tried to ask but the wind threw his voice back at him. Whether the girl heard him or not he would never know. She merely smiled at him, gripping his hand tightly as she began to tip forward. Before he knew what was going on, he felt a hard tug on his hand and the feeling of his feet leaving solid ground followed by his stomach dropping to his toes. 

A scream ripped its way from his chest and was thrown away by the fierce wind. He looked wildly at the girl still gripping his hand, seeing that she was smiling contently like they weren’t going to have to be scraped up from the asphalt once this was all over. His eyes involuntarily returned to the ground that was growing closer and closer to them by the second. It seemed the fall lasted forever yet it also seemed like they were falling very quickly. Feeling like his heart was trying to beat its way out of his chest, Raven could only watch in terror as he freefell towards the street. Right as they were about to hit Raven squeezed his eyes shut and tensed his whole body.

When the impact never came Raven blinked his eyes open in confusion. He looked around, seeing that he was in a tunnel of some soft. Braziers lined the walls, the warm flames making the shadows flicker and dance out of the corner of his eyes. The smell of dust and earth invaded his nose and he sneezed a few times. He then spotted a white glow at the end of the tunnel. Curiosity warred with common sense. Dare he go closer? What if it was a trap? However, it also could be a way out. He frowned as he stood there for several minutes. Finally curiosity won out and his feet began moving before he could second-guess himself. 

His quiet footfalls echoed down the tunnel, making them sound louder than he would have liked. He didn’t know if there was anything there with him or if it knew he was there but if it wasn’t aware of his presence he would very much like to keep it that way. No need to add being chased by a monster to this very bizarre experience. As he drew closer to the light it began to take shape. First an oval before it morphed to resemble a more humanoid shape. Once Raven drew close enough he blinked in surprise when the light faded away slightly to reveal the flower shop girl. 

She stood there smiling at him with her head tilted before turning and walking away. <font color=""violet"">”Hey, wait!”</font> Raven cried before racing after her. No matter how fast he ran she always stayed a few paces ahead of him. In fact, it looked like the faster he ran the farther away she got. He panicked when she suddenly disappeared through an open door. He skidded to a halt before it and peeked inside. He almost flinched back at the blackness that greeted him. He had never been fond of the dark either. Gathering up all of his courage Raven grasped the door handle and pulled the door open, a dank odor wafting out of the abyss. 

.As he stepped inside a few inches the door suddenly slammed shut behind him, knocking him into the room slightly and taking with it his only light source. After stumbling forward a bit and regaining his balance, Raven froze, breath halting in his chest upon realizing just how <span class=""bb-b"">dark</span> it was. He was too terrified to breath let alone move. As he stood there, wide eyes trying to look though the gloom covering his vision a small sound reached his ears. The sound made his veins fill with ice and his heart stop in his chest.

 <span class=""bb-b"">tap tap tap</span> 

The sound of footsteps drew ever nearer and Raven found himself pressing back against the solid wood of the door, the handle digging uncomfortably into his back. Suddenly, a brightness filled the room, making him cry out and shield his eyes against the harsh glare. After a few beats the light dialed back and he was able to open his eyes, blinking away the spots that popped up across his vision. What he saw made him blink again. Flower shop girl was standing in the middle of the room smiling at him. He let his eyes wonder the room, seeing that it was round in shape. Murals depicting winged creatures covered the walls. As he gazed at them he had to blink because it looked like they were almost…moving. A swishing sound drew his attention away from the wall art and he brought his attention back to the girl to see she had stepped closer. 

She raised one slender arm and pointed off to the side, his gaze following her. He saw a red curtain that rustled in an invisible breeze. It slowly started to rise and he glimpsed a dark shape crouching in the opening behind the curtain. Bright blue eyes bore into his own and he squinted, unable to make out the rest of the shape. As he took a step closer to try and see the mass better, he gasped as a rumbling shook the room and the stones that made up the floor began to fall away. A type of weightless washed over him and Raven gasped, looking down to see there was nothing but darkness under his feet. 

He turned panicked eyes upwards, spotting the girl standing but a few inches from him. He threw out an arm to reach out to her but just as his fingers brushed her hand the weightless feeling disappeared and a cry escaped him as he began to fall, the girl’s smiling face the last thing he saw before everything went black.</font>

A gasped escaped him as he shot up into a sat position, breath escaping in harsh pants as his eyes wheeled wildly around. As his heartrate calmed down and his breathing slowed, he ran a hand over his face as he took a deep breath. <font color=""violet"">”Just a dream.”</font> He sighed as he flopped back against the sheets. Sunlight was filtering through the cracks in the blinds and he glanced at the clock, seeing that it was eight o’clock in morning. Deciding he wasn’t going back to sleep anytime soon, Raven swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up. He groaned as pain rushed through his head and he stumbled as his and ache. The longer he stood, the more his body hurt. It felt like that time he had the flu only his nose wasn’t stuffy. 

He sighed once more and stiffly made his way to the bathroom. After doing his business he grabbed his toothbrush and toothpaste. He smeared the paste over the bristles and brought the brush to his mouth. As he opened his mouth, he frowned and leaned closer as he stared at his teeth. Were his canines…pointier? They certainly looked sharper. He gently brought his tongue to poke at one and winced at the drop of blood that welled up. Still frowning, he slowly started brushing his teeth. Things were getting weirder and weirder. After finishing that task he turned to the mirror. Remembering what he saw last night, he gripped the hem of his shirt before hesitantly lifting it over his head. His eyes widened and the cloth fell from his limp fingers. There were more of them, covering a good part of his chest, the top halves of his arms and his calves and thighs. He slowly brought a hand up to touch one of the spots. 

It was hard and smooth…like…like a…scale. Freaked out, he quickly grabbed his shirt and tugged it back over his head. Raven’s vision wavered for a moment and he stumbled as his headache grew, leaning against the wall as he took a deep breath. He stumbled to the medicine cabinet and blindly reached out for the aspirin. He swallowed two dry and stumbled back to the bed, collapsing on top of it. He laid there with an arm throw over his eyes, waiting for the medicine to kick in. As he laid there, a sudden twisting of his stomach had him leaning over the bed and retching into the trashcan he kept next to his nightstand. 

Groaning, he wiped his mouth off with a tissue from the box on the nightstand before rolling back over onto his back. He began shivering as sweat began beading on his forehead and he reached for the comforter, pulling it over him as he moaned, stomach twisting and doing somersaults. Was he sick? It sure as hell felt like it. Blaze mewed, nudging Raven’s head. When the boy made no move to respond, the kitten tucked himself against the boy’s neck, purring in hopes to sooth his owner. Raven dimly heard the phone ring but he felt too horrible to move and felt his consciousness slip away.</div></div>"

Instead she opened her eyes to find herself underwater again. It was just like the hallucination she had at the Silver Dragon restaurant. The same fear of not being able to breath caused her to panic once again. She grabbed at her throat and kicked her legs wildly in attempts to reach the surface. Her eyes pinches shut hoping that she would wake up from this nightmare. Then she felt hands gently take hers away from her throat. Slowly opening her eyes, she saw the bright aquamarine eyes of the host from the Silver Dragon. What was his name? Yes, it was Raven. He held her hands gently for a moment then opened his mouth. She saw his chest rise then fall. He was breathing? How could he? Looking to her, he nodded like he was telling her to try. With eyes filled with terror, she shook her head and kicked her legs. Despite her struggles she didn't go anywhere. He seemed to be waiting for her to calm down. Not being able to hold her breath any longer she screamed with a couple bubbles escaping her mouth then she took a deep breath instinctively. She was breathing? Looking at him questioningly, he responded by showing his hands holding hers. For the moment, it seemed to make sense. He was helping her breath somehow, but them again, it was a dream. Right? This couldn't be real. Once he saw she was ok, he started pulling her along towards the surface. 

The dream changed or jumped forward somehow. She looked around and she was standing next to a small round pool. She was standing in some sort of cave and the only light was coming from the pool. Where did Raven go? Was she in that pool? She couldn't have been, she was completely dry. There was a whistling sound touching her ears. ""We're...om.....ng..."" she heard the whisper again. Looking around, she saw some stairs leading up and away from the pool. There was a large door. at the top of the stairs. The whispering was coming from there. She seemed to climb the stairs rather fast. She didn't even have to really push the door open. It seemed like it was being sucked open. The wind was no longer blowing out to her, but pulling her in. She stumbled into the door to have it slam shut with a loud echoing bang. Something took her hand again. It felt like Raven's but she really couldn't see very well past the door. He gently led her down the poorly let corridor until she began to see a light at the end. The light helped her see Raven's outline a little better. He didn't look back but kept his face forward to the light. The light seemed so bright that she really couldn't see past it. 

Once they stepped into the light, it took a while for her eyes to adjust. They were in a a circular room and Raven seemed to disappear again. Looking around there were luminous markings all over the walls of creatures. Some were flying, some were breathing fire. They were all so bright and glorious that she wanted to watch them more, but the whispering came to ears again. She looked around for the source but the gentle breeze seemed to be flowing around her. Something bright glimmered out of the corner of her eye. She saw a small curtain and Raven stood beside it. He looked at her with bright glowing eyes then gestured for her to investigate the curtain. 

Slowly, Elly stepped forward and moved the curtain away. It was another room but far smaller than the other. As soon as she saw the interior, it was like her legs were moving of their own accord into the center. There was something glowing from above. Looking up, she heard the whispering again. ""we're ...o.....ing..."" Towards the ceiling was a sheet or some sort of drapery bellowing in the breeze. Something seemed to be shifting beneath the fabric as if struggling to break free. Elly wanted to get a closer look. The fabric seemed to stretch downward towards her with something facing her. It had bright eyes of gold. 
It opened it mouth and breathed out a thin mist. ""We're.....Coming..."" As soon as she heard it, a violent tremor shook the room and the ground she stood on. 

Elly fell to the ground and looked up to see the creature trapped within the cloth move back towards the ceiling, curl up and rest upside down on the ceiling. What was that thing? The ground quaked again. She looked towards the entrance and saw Raven's outline near the curtain. Pushing herself back to her feet, she ran out of the room, but once she stepped past it's threshold, the floor of the circular room was gone. It was replaced with a great big hole and she just stepped right into it. 

Unlike other dreams, she was really falling this time. Elly flailed and screamed only find herself flopping onto her floor in a tangle of covers. Her head was pounding and her stomach was just as upset as it was before. Crawling to the bathroom, she reunited with her porcelain companion and dry heaved for a few minutes. After she leaned over the toilet bowl with nothing coming out, she concluded that she must have had nothing left. It took her a long time to gather the strength to stand. Once she did she looked into the mirror and gasped. More smooth pearly bumps had appeared on her face. Some were on her cheekbones while other were around her eyes and forehead. Upon further inspection, she found more on her neck as well as the rest of her body. Though she applied plenty of lotion to them the day before it seemed like they were only multiplying. She tried to pick one off but she yelped only seeing that it hurt to try to remove them. 

The over all appearance was like she was covered in little pearly pebbles. What was going on? She felt more tired than when went to bed and her stomach was still raging though she was sure it was empty. Elly rather mindlessly ran her tongue over her teeth and felt the nasty texture that greeted anyone who just woke up. Sighing, she leaned over her sink and began to brush her teeth. Due to her nausea and irritation, she refused to look up at her oddly textured face. After she finished brushing her teeth, she ran her tongue over them again to make sure did a halfway decent job. Her brows drew close together and she reached up to feel her teeth. They were unusually pointed and sharp feeling. 

Taking a hand mirror with her, Elly flopped back into her bed. Slowly rolling onto her back she felt a rushing sensation in her head causing her to groan. She laid there for a few minutes then raised the hand mirror to look at her teeth. Her limbs felt unbelievably heavy, so she quickly gave up and laid there. It was like her body was getting more and more weak as time passed. The thunderous headache wasn't letting up. She was in too much pain to even think about her dream, she just wanted to sleep or have something happen to make the pain go away.</div>"

It has been little over a hundred years since the so-called ‘extinction’ of dragons. Actually, instead of dying off, they learned to take the shape of human and hide among them. There has been one slight problem though. Lately females have been giving birth to children that look human. This caused a lot of parents to give up their young to  to human adoption centers. Believing that they were giving their children the best opportunity, they put them in the worst danger. The children were human-born dragons, which meant rather than being born a dragon and learning to take a human form later in life, they did it in reverse. Their dragon forms along with their in-human abilities would remain dormant until they reached adult age. When that time comes, their human bodies would be forced away by their inner dragon forms.

O.O! I got an idea! They both experience a terrifying moment from the other human-borns dream. Example: Elly has a vision of being underwater, then feels like she's drowning and runs out of the store thinking that she's feeling smothered by all the people. Her abilities will also kick in causing a 'rouge' blast of wind to rush through the front of the restaurant.

Something similar can happen to your char. Sound good?</div>"

And then maybe for him all the water in the restaurant flies out of its containers and goes everywhere? 

....I should totally make Raven afraid of heights. But only for now. When he's able to transform into a dragon he'll get used to it and learn to like it.</div>"

Courageous, witty, and possessing a remarkably incorruptible sense of justice, Shinichi believes anything could be explained with logic and deduction. Nicknamed ""The Heisei Holmes"" in Japan, he possesses the intellect and skills to match some of the greatest detectives of all time. Though he used to be brash young kid with an over-inflated ego, he was humbled down through his involvement in a criminal organization simply called ""Black"", particularly his shrinking down into his seven year old self. And although he remained ill-tempered at times, especially in matters of murder and the taking of another's life, he's patient and calm when it comes to solving cases, capable of spotting the most minute detail any ordinary man would have missed.

He also possesses knowledge of various subjects related to his crime-solving. He's athletic and is highly skilled in soccer. The list of skills he had learned from his mystery novelist of a father includes driving a boat, flying an helicopter, as well as firing a pistol. The one biggest flaw of his, however, is that he's tone-deaf; he can't sing to save his life. Furthermore, he sucks at video games.

Background Info -
Shinichi Kudo used to be a 17 year old high schooler detective with intelligence, fame, and fangirls to boot - and perhaps a little too much pride. While visiting an amusement park called ""Tropical Land"" with his girlfriend, Shinichi ran into a group of men in black making an illegal exchange of drugs. So focused on the business deal, the young detective didn't notice another member of the organization behind him and was assaulted with a metal bat. He was then force-fed with an experimental drug called ""APTX 4869"" that shrunk him down to the body of a 7 year old. Ever since that day, he vowed to hunt down the criminal organization that did this to him and bring them to justice. Two years later, he did - at the cost of his girlfriend's life.

Distraught, but never in despair, Shinichi has since moved on in life and continued hunting criminals everywhere. Unfortunately, he never did recover the antidote to the drug that had separated his childhood love from him. Though his neighbour and good friend, Professor Hiroshi Agasa, had promised to continue his research for a cure, Shinichi has long accepted his fate as a karmic punishment.

Story:The Angry Video Game Nerd,Aka:AVGN

personality:(taken from the AVGN wiki)To put it lightly, The Nerd has serious anger issues, to the point of even destroying some of the games he reviews. He often drinks beer (either Rolling Rock or Yuengling), attempting to relieve his frustration and sorrow.

The Nerd's trademark is his filthy mouth. In almost every review he repeatedly swears to insult games. He's often quoted as saying that he would rather succumb to violent and scatological acts than have to suffer through the game he's reviewing. He seems to have few, if any, friends or acquaintances, even insulting children trick-or-treating at his house in the Halloween episode. That being said, the Nerd often acts very mean-spirited and cruel, and is generally unfriendly to most of the guests on his show. Despite all this, the Nerd also does reviews in a positive light on occasion, such as in the episodes: Nintendo Power, Back to the Future Trilogy, and Wish List (Part 2).

Background info:let his theme song do it for me

personality:(taken from chanel awesome wiki)ersonality
Depending on the setting, the Critic is given to over-the-top reactions, screaming at the top of his voice at movie plots that do not make sense or do not leave any explanation, or reacting with sarcasm. He goes berserk at the mere mention of the ""Bat Credit Card"". The Critic becomes a power-hungry despot when given positions of authority, as seen blatantly in Kickassia. He has a strong, rather obsessive infatuation for Catherine Zeta-Jones, whose appearance in movies momentarily distracts him from the review, when he would express his desire to possess her. This has happened in reviews such as The Phantom, The Haunting, and the Top 11 Villain Songs.

Occasionally, the Critic has shown a more compassionate side to him when he criticizes a work for acting insensitive about real life events, such as The Legend of the Titanic animated movie, which turned the disaster into a cliched message against whaling and established that all the passengers onboard survived the sinking. Also the Critic has shown a complete hatred for TMZ due to their lack of actual journalism. He parodied TMZ in the AI review where he brought up Sandra Bullock making a $25,000 donation to rebuild a destroyed school, only for the TMZ crew to instantly state that Bullock was ""fat"", proceeding to do a story on this. At the end of the review, he allows them to make a story about how Steven Spielberg and Stanley Kubrick may have understood each other better than other people thought, but they reinterpret his message and portray Spielberg and Kubrick as gay lovers, as well as insulting the latter's films. In revenge, the Critic humiliates the TMZ crew with inappropriate footage of themselves, and tells them that if they kept asking people on the internet to forget about it then they would, which would actually cause people to remember even more,

Squidward is a foul tempered, somewhat narcissistic octopus who lives a dreary life that seems designed to cause him pain. Quick to respond with dry wit and sarcasm, it takes very little to annoy him, and only slightly more to anger him, which is usually met with explosive rage. That is not to say that Squidward is a totally sullen individual, on the contrary; he sees himself as a connoisseur of fine art, and greatly enjoys not only consuming art but creating it, though his ability is hardly up to par.  

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Background Info</span></span>
Squidward is a grumpy, egotistical octopus who lives in the city of Bikini Bottom next two his two annoying neighbors, Spongebob and Patrick. He works at a fast food restaurant known as the Krusty Krab, and lothes every second of it. Any hopes of escaping minimum wage slavery is dashed by the utter lack of talent that he possesses in what are, unfortunatly, his greatest passions; art and music. The utter bleakness of this life has taken quite a toll on him, as it seems that every day things can only get worse for Squidward.

Age - Around 17 physically but is really 33   

Gender - Male

Species - Human
 
Story - Jojo Bizarre Adventure

Personality - As Diavolo-Diavolo has an aggressive and ruthless personality, highly disliking anyone seeing his true face, and will relentlessly hunt and kill those who do. He is willing to kill his own family and risk civilian lives to prevent his identity being discovered, and attempts to kill his own daughter to stop himself being discovered.

His strong will to overcome his past lead him to creating one of the most powerful organized crime syndicates in Italy, and to keep his position as boss and identity secret Diavolo tortures and murders without mercy or discrimination. As boss of Passione he is highly respected, as Passione is outwardly a just organization dedicated to removing drugs from the streets of Italy. This is, however, all just a front for Diavolo's real plan to make his own drugs (made by Massimo Volpe) the only product on the market. Buccellati had also initially believed Passione to be doing good, and so felt a great sense of betrayal when this news was revealed to him.

Diavolo is unforgiving of those conspiring against him, probably believing himself to be without fault, and has been shown to treat his subordinates cruelly if suspected of defection. He is even willing to put innocent lives at risk to achieve his goals and secure his identity.

Like other main antagonists in the series, he uses the prefix I or Me (この kono?) to announce his name in a sign of superiority over others, often boasting that he is the Emperor and the one chosen by the arrow.

His personality is split so completely that when Silver Chariot Requiem switches everyone's souls, Diavolo and Doppio adopt different bodies: Doppio in Buccellati's body, and Diavolo in Guido Mista's. 

As Doppio-While Doppio at first appears to be fairly clueless and harmless, he is not unable to look after himself. He has a friendly personality which should not be mistaken for naivety as he proves that he is a lot smarter and more resourceful than he looks. He is faithful to Diavolo and seems to be willing to do anything to help him.

During his fight with Risotto he proves himself to be loyal to Diavolo, almost to the point of stupidity, as he refuses to escape when told so he can find out his enemy's secret and weakness. While at first terrified of what was happening, Doppio uses what resources he has and defeats Risotto with almost no intervention from Diavolo himself.

He is seemingly unaware of their co-inhabitance and appears to consider himself Diavolo's underboss, as Diavolo only contacts him directly. Just before Diavolo takes control, Doppio claims his head hurts and warns people to keep away or stop touching him. After Diavolo has taken care any problems (i.e. killed the person asking about his identity), Doppio regains control once more, entirely oblivious to what transpired, and returns to what he was doing.

As he dies, Doppio's last thoughts are of his boss. He remains faithful until the end and smiles, saying that if Diavolo is going with them he'll surely win and asks Diavolo to call him, remarking that he feels lonely.

While some may ague that Diavolo is the more dominant of the two, it appears that he is merely the more ruthless as Doppio appears to be in control of their body more often than not, taking advice and orders where needed. 

Background Info - Diavolo was born in an all-female prison sometime in 1967, his birth is a mystery as his mother claimed that she had been pregnant for two years, and all the guards were female. Because she was unable to raise him while in prison, Diavolo's mother sent him to live in her home town of Sardinia with a priest. As he was growing up he was considered dim-witted and timid, but frank, and remarked that he wanted to be a sailor rather than a priest, which his guardian agreed would suit him.

When he turned 19, as the priest was constructing a garage for him, he discovered Diavolo's mother buried alive next to Diavolo's room with her mouth sewn shut. That night a fire broke out, consuming every house in the village. Seven were listed as dead, including Diavolo and the priest. However he survived and created Passione soon after. During the same year his village burnt, Diavolo went on an archaeology expedition to Egypt. Upon finding six arrows, he quickly stole them and left, selling five to Enya for a huge sum of money and keeping the last one for himself (the same arrow attached to Polpo's Black Sabbath).

After the events of Stardust Crusaders Polnareff and Jotaro set out to find the six arrows. Upon noticing the crime and death rates surrounding Diavolo's organisation were twenty times higher than average, Polnareff began investigating Passione and its leader. Diavolo easily defeated Polnareff, damaging his eye, right arm, and legs.  

Doppio is first seen in Sardinia, carrying a briefcase. In his introduction the audience is made to believe he is saving a child from being hit by a car, though it is later shown he barely took notice of the child and was actually saving a bug. After possibly subconsciously using King Crimson to avoid being hit by the car, Doppio caught the attention of a fortune teller. While at first sceptical, Doppio became interested in the man's fortune telling until the fortune teller tried to force him into letting him see his hands. After becoming panicked, Diavolo took Doppio's place and killed the man, leaving Doppio to chase his bug again afterwards (terrifying the small boy who was watching).

After getting into a taxi and being conned by the driver, Doppio is met by Risotto Nero. In his rush to get away, Doppio smacks his face against a rock and bleeds profusely, getting blood all over his shoes. When Risotto asks what's in an envelope (containing a photo of Diavolo) he is lead to believe it is only a bit of rubbish as Doppio manages to stick the photograph to the bottom of his foot with his own blood.

During the fight with Risotto, Diavolo tells Doppio that he has been loaned King Crimson's power in an attempt to encourage him to fight back. There is, however, no confirmed way of loaning stands other than Whitesnake's power, which indicates that Doppio could either use the whole of King Crimson from the start or his willpower was only strong enough to use Epitaph and one of King Crimson's arms. Doppio shows great determination to defeat Risotto despite his fear and despite Diavolo warning him to escape. He also proves himself to be very resourceful, using Narancia's Aerosmith and King Crimson in combination to shoot and kill Risotto.

Upon arriving in Rome, Doppio is taken hostage by Secco, who is fighting Buccellati. As neither of them recognise him, Buccellati saves him by placing a zipper on him to punch through him and kill Secco without hurting him. As Buccellati had lost his sight and hearing Doppio easily fooled him into believing he was Trish, allowing him to be lead straight to Polnareff who was obviously wary of him.

When Silver Chariot Requiem swapped the souls of the inhabitants of Rome his soul got switched into Buccellati's body, with Buccellati's soul going to Diavolo's body. After waking up from Silver Chariot Requiem's ability and standing, he was shot by Mista using Trish's body. Though Mista claimed his attack was not enough to kill him, Doppio died nonetheless.

Shiba Tatsuya

Age: 
17

Gender: 
Male

Species:
Human-ish

Story:
The Irregular at the Magic HighSchool,
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei

Personality:
Tatsuya is intelligent and analytic. His emotions are merely skewed in a certain direction, with one particular half becoming especially sensitive. Thanks to this, he can easily and quickly categorize people into two distinctive groups: hostile and non-hostile (while normal people would see 3 types: hostile, neutral and friendly. They would have a hard time to know who is a friend and who is an enemy since they aren't sensitive). This certainly comes in handy for his military and political life and anything related to conflicts (which is almost everything in life). 

Background Information:
Tatsuya is the eldest son of Shiba Tatsurou and Shiba Miya and is eleven months older than his younger and only sibling Miyuki (his birthday falls on April 24th). They are often mistaken as twins for being in the same year.

Prior to the timeline at the beginning of the series, their father remarried six months after their mother's death, and the two of them are living alone in a house, which is described as a place that vastly exceeds the average size.

Since he was young, one of the only things in which he shows enthusiasm-like qualities, is in Magic Engineering and CAD developments. He has an aptitude for them and has continually displayed his interest until now, as he is aided by the circumstances. Their house has a basement with the same floor layout as the floor above, redecorated as Tatsuya's lab equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and plentiful area for where new types of magic created by Tatsuya are tested, and for research or other purposes.

Limitless potential lies beyond the stars. Each of those stars could have many worlds, every world could have a very different form of life, and every life has its own special story of his own.

This is the story of how one apathetic god squandered all that potential by hosting a mafia party game in space, at a mansion floating through the vacuum no less.

In this mansion, there are many things one would normally find in an ordinary mansion. A movie theater-sized library could be found at the back of the first floor, its shelves lined up with books from every century. To the right hall, a dining room lined up with smoking-hot food, despite them being left in the open. To the left hall, a familiar chandelier spread its ghostly glow across a gloomy ballroom, its light being the only source of illumination. And finally, the two grand staircases spiraling up to the second floor led to an exact number of nine bedrooms, with the numbers one through nine hanging from the door.

In the desolate main hall of the mansion, just several yards from the main entrance, what was once an unnaturally quiet vestibule began humming with a ear-piercing low pitch. As the sound rise in volume, orbs of light began materializing into existence, and eventually, those orbs summoned forth nine individuals from across the planes of reality...

<div class=""bb-center"">---------------------------------</div>
<span class=""bb-i"">""I'm Kudo Shinichi, a high school detective. While at an amusement park with my childhood friend and classmate, Mouri Ran, I witnessed a suspicious deal involving a man in black. Since I was so focused on watching the deal, I didn’t realize his partner was sneaking up from behind me. He forced me to consume poison, and when I came to… my body had shrunk.

If those men learnt that Kudo Shinichi was still alive, they’d come back to finish me off, endangering everyone around me. At Dr. Agasa’s suggestion, I hid my identity, and when Ran asked for my name, I blurted out ‘Edogawa Conan’. To find out more about those men in black - the Black Organization - I ended up living with Ran and her detective father.

There were only a few trusted individuals who knew my identity; my father and mystery novelist, Kudo Yusaku; my mother and a retired actress, Kudo Yukiko; the western high school detective, Hattori Heiji; and my current classmate, Haibara Ai.

Her true identity is Miyano Shiho. She was once involved with the Black Organization. But after her sister, Miyano Akemi, was murdered by the Organization, she decided to flee from them. By taking the same poison I was forced to… her body shrunk as well.

The enigmatic Black Organization… I’m not the only one who’s secretly working to find out their identity. The Federal Bureau of Investigation – the FBI – was in hot pursuit as well. Half a year ago, they had managed to track down the headquarters of the Black Org., but it was a well-planned trap laid out for them… and my classmate, Mouri Ran, was murdered during the incident.

It has been a long and hard battle. I’ve lost many friends over the past year; Ran, Ayumi… Dr. Agasa. But I won’t let their death be in vain. Even though my body has shrunk, my mind remains the same. One truth prevails, and I’ll die before I let the Organization continue doing as it wishes...

That said, this will be my final message. If you are hearing this, I've failed, and I'm no longer of this world. Please... stop the Black Organization. I've gathered all the information on them in a USB cache hidden beneath Dr. Agasa's desk. Please use it wi-""</span>

Haibara pressed the 'stop' button on the audio recorder. Her visage displayed not a hint of emotion, not pity nor sorrow. She knew this day would come.

Two nights ago, Haibara came to Dr. Agasa's laboratory, Shinichi's current place of residence, empty. The great detective had been missing throughout the two days, and she had only found this hidden tape recorder in the one place Shinichi knew she would look - her sister's strongbox, where Haibara would check every few weeks. Though the possibility of Shinichi merely being kidnapped had remained existent, she could tell he was going to hunt down the Boss of the Organization a week before she had found the tape. He had been tirelessly working to hunt down the Black Org. ever since Ran's death, and two weeks ago, he had learned of the location from a significant member of the criminal group, Vermouth, who revealed the truth on her deathbed.

Haibara laid across the bed, the recorder rested against her abdomen. The lab was always been a quiet place, and it suited her just fine, but ever since the doctor's passing, the solitude became unbearable. She became even more accustomed to Shinichi's company than before, inadvertently gaining feelings for him.

Not anymore.

Shinichi twiddled the USB drive in his hand as he watched the sunset. He halfheartedly hoped that the thing would fall off his hand, past the railing, and into the river beneath the scenic overlook.

<span class=""bb-i"">""I've warned you, Kudo-kun; that email was something that should never be opened: Pandora's Box. Much like the supposed data you've got on the Organization's leader.""</span>

He buried his head into his folded arms. He knew the risk contained within this tiny capsule; he had experienced it before firsthand through the death of his girlfriend. It might be another trap that would lead to the death of another innocent. But he also knew it was not about him; it was about stopping a criminal organization who had caused hundreds of lives.

Shinichi caught the USB in his fist, his resolve rediscovered. He was not going to give up the pursuit before, and he certainly would not start now. Just as he was about to end his momentary scenery trip, however, his consciousness began to fade...

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Present Day, Present Time</span></span>
It felt like a mere second had passed when he awoke, as feelings of nauseousness and disorientation caused him to wobble around on the spot. The bright light did not help one bit.

When his vision had returned, he nearly convinced himself that he was dreaming; aside from the strange uniforms some of the individuals around him were dressed in, an android and a bipedal squid were among the other strange creatures in this surreal environment he found himself in. Then he noticed the distant aroma of roasted chicken, the mumblings of confusion uttered by the surrounding people, and the solid flooring he was standing upon; they all felt real, nothing close to the state one would normally associate with dreaming.

Thus, he held the question: <span class=""bb-i"">'Where am I?'</span>

All of the sudden, someone bumped into him. A bit cautious, Shinichi spun towards the person and found a teenage boy with a tattered sweater.

<span class=""bb-i"">""S...s...sorry...""</span> the teen whispered with his fingers touching together. He was going to ask him for their current location, but the boy seemed almost as confused the rest of the occupants here.

""No, it's okay,"" Shinichi casually responded, a faint smile across his face.

Then he turned towards his right, and he noticed the main door standing before him. It was a large set of door like any other. There was nothing ominous nor special about it. However, the normality of it kept Shinichi even more on guard as he gradually approached the handlebars.

He tried the door. Locked. He sighed in disappointment, but quickly reached into his blue jacket and pulled out a yellow badge.

""Oi, Haibara! Can you hear me?!"" Shinichi shouted into the transmitter, but the device merely responded with pure static. ""Dammit. Where the heck am I?""

Then he remembered; the USB. He probed around his jacket, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found the rectangular device safely tucked away in one of the pockets within the jacket. At least that part of his life had remained secure.</div>"

Tatsuya stood in front of the flat screen Television, as a green flash lighted the room. A small logo appeared on the screen, when a person appeared on the screen.

It’s lonely yet crowded, a vast vacuum dotted with millions of galaxies and universes, each brimming with a wide variety of life-forms and personalities. One of such entities was bored. It had no name, shape, nor form. It was conscious of its unconsciousness, a sleeping god that dreamt of being awake. But none of that mattered, for a god was bored. And that’s terrible news.

“Whomever is summoned, if he be worthy, shall live to see another day! HAHAHAHAHA!!!”

The terrible thought spread out through the galaxy, a thought that materialised into existence. First an atom, then a molecule, and finally, a brick was formed. The brick grew in numbers, growing into a small house, then a fortress, and finally, a gigantic mansion floating in the middle of deep space.

And so the stage was set. Individuals from across the galaxies shall be summoned here against their will and be put in a sadistic game of whodunit. Their former lives were gone, for it was only here that the rest of their lives would matter. And for the added spice, one of them would kill them all, while the other might just save them.

Who shall come out on top of this insane game of nonsensical proportions?! Tune in next time on - The Multiversal Whodunit!</span>

---

And so it begins. This is a simple whodunit game that spans the multiverse. You are a character from a fictional story. Maybe a television show, a comic book, or even classic literature. Regardless, you are here now, gathered with other strange creatures from other dimensions. One of you is the killer who shall backstab the rest of you, one of you is the savior who will be informed about the clues of the culprit - both of whom were blackmailed by your mysterious host, a disembodied voice, to perform their tasks.

At the end of each round spanning three days, everyone will place a vote on who he thinks the killer is. By the rise of the fourth sun, the answer to whether if the voting has been accurate will be revealed; the one voted off shall be imprisoned for the rest of his life. But hey, at least it’s a prison in a mansion, albeit in deep space.

Ah, but don’t fret; there’s a key to your salvation, friends, in case you were inaccurately voted off. One of you is the “appealer”, and whether if this appealer is willing to save you in exchange for a heavy price depends on your bonding with him. So play nice, kids, the person beside you might just save your life. Or kill you. But hey, that’s life.

Have fun! The rules of this RP are pretty basic:
- No controlling of other players' characters
- No killing off other characters without permission
- The killer needs to send a PM to the GM who he wants to kill; the Savior will receive a PM from the GM clues about the killer
- Post actively please, preferably without one-liners

That's pretty much it. :)</div>"

Age - 10 years old in appearance, 20 in actuality
Gender - Male
Species - Human
Story - Detective Conan anime

Personality - 
Courageous, witty, and possessing a remarkably incorruptible sense of justice, Shinichi believes anything could be explained with logic and deduction. Nicknamed ""The Heisei Holmes"" in Japan, he possesses the intellect and skills to match some of the greatest detectives of all time. Though he used to be brash young kid with an over-inflated ego, he was humbled down through his involvement in a criminal organization simply called ""Black"", particularly his shrinking down into his seven year old self. And although he remained ill-tempered at times, especially in matters of murder and the taking of another's life, he's patient and calm when it comes to solving cases, capable of spotting the most minute detail any ordinary man would have missed.

He also possesses knowledge of various subjects related to his crime-solving. He's athletic and is highly skilled in soccer. The list of skills he had learned from his mystery novelist of a father includes driving a boat, flying an helicopter, as well as firing a pistol. The one biggest flaw of his, however, is that he's tone-deaf; he can't sing to save his life. Furthermore, he sucks at video games.

Background Info -
Shinichi Kudo used to be a 17 year old high schooler detective with intelligence, fame, and fangirls to boot - and perhaps a little too much pride. While visiting an amusement park called ""Tropical Land"" with his girlfriend, Shinichi ran into a group of men in black making an illegal exchange of drugs. So focused on the business deal, the young detective didn't notice another member of the organization behind him and was assaulted with a metal bat. He was then force-fed with an experimental drug called ""APTX 4869"" that shrunk him down to the body of a 7 year old. Ever since that day, he vowed to hunt down the criminal organization that did this to him and bring them to justice. Two years later, he did - at the cost of his girlfriend's life.

Distraught, but never in despair, Shinichi has since moved on in life and continued hunting criminals everywhere. Unfortunately, he never did recover the antidote to the drug that had separated his childhood love from him. Though his neighbour and good friend, Professor Hiroshi Agasa, had promised to continue his research for a cure, Shinichi has long accepted his fate as a karmic punishment.

Story:The Angry Video Game Nerd,Aka:AVGN

personality:(taken from the AVGN wiki)To put it lightly, The Nerd has serious anger issues, to the point of even destroying some of the games he reviews. He often drinks beer (either Rolling Rock or Yuengling), attempting to relieve his frustration and sorrow.

The Nerd's trademark is his filthy mouth. In almost every review he repeatedly swears to insult games. He's often quoted as saying that he would rather succumb to violent and scatological acts than have to suffer through the game he's reviewing. He seems to have few, if any, friends or acquaintances, even insulting children trick-or-treating at his house in the Halloween episode. That being said, the Nerd often acts very mean-spirited and cruel, and is generally unfriendly to most of the guests on his show. Despite all this, the Nerd also does reviews in a positive light on occasion, such as in the episodes: Nintendo Power, Back to the Future Trilogy, and Wish List (Part 2).

Age - Around 17 physically but is really 33   

Gender - Male

Species - Human
 
Story - Jojo Bizarre Adventure

Personality - As Diavolo-Diavolo has an aggressive and ruthless personality, highly disliking anyone seeing his true face, and will relentlessly hunt and kill those who do. He is willing to kill his own family and risk civilian lives to prevent his identity being discovered, and attempts to kill his own daughter to stop himself being discovered.

His strong will to overcome his past lead him to creating one of the most powerful organized crime syndicates in Italy, and to keep his position as boss and identity secret Diavolo tortures and murders without mercy or discrimination. As boss of Passione he is highly respected, as Passione is outwardly a just organization dedicated to removing drugs from the streets of Italy. This is, however, all just a front for Diavolo's real plan to make his own drugs (made by Massimo Volpe) the only product on the market. Buccellati had also initially believed Passione to be doing good, and so felt a great sense of betrayal when this news was revealed to him.

Diavolo is unforgiving of those conspiring against him, probably believing himself to be without fault, and has been shown to treat his subordinates cruelly if suspected of defection. He is even willing to put innocent lives at risk to achieve his goals and secure his identity.

Like other main antagonists in the series, he uses the prefix I or Me (この kono?) to announce his name in a sign of superiority over others, often boasting that he is the Emperor and the one chosen by the arrow.

His personality is split so completely that when Silver Chariot Requiem switches everyone's souls, Diavolo and Doppio adopt different bodies: Doppio in Buccellati's body, and Diavolo in Guido Mista's. 

As Doppio-While Doppio at first appears to be fairly clueless and harmless, he is not unable to look after himself. He has a friendly personality which should not be mistaken for naivety as he proves that he is a lot smarter and more resourceful than he looks. He is faithful to Diavolo and seems to be willing to do anything to help him.

During his fight with Risotto he proves himself to be loyal to Diavolo, almost to the point of stupidity, as he refuses to escape when told so he can find out his enemy's secret and weakness. While at first terrified of what was happening, Doppio uses what resources he has and defeats Risotto with almost no intervention from Diavolo himself.

He is seemingly unaware of their co-inhabitance and appears to consider himself Diavolo's underboss, as Diavolo only contacts him directly. Just before Diavolo takes control, Doppio claims his head hurts and warns people to keep away or stop touching him. After Diavolo has taken care any problems (i.e. killed the person asking about his identity), Doppio regains control once more, entirely oblivious to what transpired, and returns to what he was doing.

As he dies, Doppio's last thoughts are of his boss. He remains faithful until the end and smiles, saying that if Diavolo is going with them he'll surely win and asks Diavolo to call him, remarking that he feels lonely.

While some may ague that Diavolo is the more dominant of the two, it appears that he is merely the more ruthless as Doppio appears to be in control of their body more often than not, taking advice and orders where needed. 

Background Info - Diavolo was born in an all-female prison sometime in 1967, his birth is a mystery as his mother claimed that she had been pregnant for two years, and all the guards were female. Because she was unable to raise him while in prison, Diavolo's mother sent him to live in her home town of Sardinia with a priest. As he was growing up he was considered dim-witted and timid, but frank, and remarked that he wanted to be a sailor rather than a priest, which his guardian agreed would suit him.

When he turned 19, as the priest was constructing a garage for him, he discovered Diavolo's mother buried alive next to Diavolo's room with her mouth sewn shut. That night a fire broke out, consuming every house in the village. Seven were listed as dead, including Diavolo and the priest. However he survived and created Passione soon after. During the same year his village burnt, Diavolo went on an archaeology expedition to Egypt. Upon finding six arrows, he quickly stole them and left, selling five to Enya for a huge sum of money and keeping the last one for himself (the same arrow attached to Polpo's Black Sabbath).

After the events of Stardust Crusaders Polnareff and Jotaro set out to find the six arrows. Upon noticing the crime and death rates surrounding Diavolo's organisation were twenty times higher than average, Polnareff began investigating Passione and its leader. Diavolo easily defeated Polnareff, damaging his eye, right arm, and legs.  

Doppio is first seen in Sardinia, carrying a briefcase. In his introduction the audience is made to believe he is saving a child from being hit by a car, though it is later shown he barely took notice of the child and was actually saving a bug. After possibly subconsciously using King Crimson to avoid being hit by the car, Doppio caught the attention of a fortune teller. While at first sceptical, Doppio became interested in the man's fortune telling until the fortune teller tried to force him into letting him see his hands. After becoming panicked, Diavolo took Doppio's place and killed the man, leaving Doppio to chase his bug again afterwards (terrifying the small boy who was watching).

After getting into a taxi and being conned by the driver, Doppio is met by Risotto Nero. In his rush to get away, Doppio smacks his face against a rock and bleeds profusely, getting blood all over his shoes. When Risotto asks what's in an envelope (containing a photo of Diavolo) he is lead to believe it is only a bit of rubbish as Doppio manages to stick the photograph to the bottom of his foot with his own blood.

During the fight with Risotto, Diavolo tells Doppio that he has been loaned King Crimson's power in an attempt to encourage him to fight back. There is, however, no confirmed way of loaning stands other than Whitesnake's power, which indicates that Doppio could either use the whole of King Crimson from the start or his willpower was only strong enough to use Epitaph and one of King Crimson's arms. Doppio shows great determination to defeat Risotto despite his fear and despite Diavolo warning him to escape. He also proves himself to be very resourceful, using Narancia's Aerosmith and King Crimson in combination to shoot and kill Risotto.

Upon arriving in Rome, Doppio is taken hostage by Secco, who is fighting Buccellati. As neither of them recognise him, Buccellati saves him by placing a zipper on him to punch through him and kill Secco without hurting him. As Buccellati had lost his sight and hearing Doppio easily fooled him into believing he was Trish, allowing him to be lead straight to Polnareff who was obviously wary of him.

When Silver Chariot Requiem swapped the souls of the inhabitants of Rome his soul got switched into Buccellati's body, with Buccellati's soul going to Diavolo's body. After waking up from Silver Chariot Requiem's ability and standing, he was shot by Mista using Trish's body. Though Mista claimed his attack was not enough to kill him, Doppio died nonetheless.

|Personality|
Athletic, agile, and dangerously unpredictable in a fight, Jeina is a formidable opponent in her own right. She is willing to do anything in order to further the cunning god's goals—no matter the cost to anyone else or even herself. She is stuck in a highly manipulated on-and-off abusive relationship with the dark prince. No matter how bad or good he is to her, she always comes back to him. On some occasions, he shows camaraderie, playfulness, and genuine affection towards her. She's the only person who's become intimidate on such a long term basis with the trickster. Her false innocent and teasing personality is enough to make almost anyone drop their guard—a mistake that could easily cost them their life. She can also be strong-willed and forceful against her greatest enemies.

|History|
Before her descent into madness, Jeina Ismorson was Asgard's palace maiden tending to the needs of the princes, Thor and Loki. While she was there, Jeina became very interested in the dark prince's various psychological qualities to control others. Vowing that she would crack the Trickster to how his silver-tongue works, the pair spent hours and hours while she was tending to him as his maid. During these intense interactions, it was instead the Jotun who cracked Jeina with his silver tongue, full-on hypnotizing words. She was completely devoted to the Jotun, totally oblivious to his sly and cunning nature. Sensing opportunity, Loki eventually manipulated her, driving her so mad that he was able to control her. She fell in love with the villain and devoted her life to making him happy, spreading his deadly brand of chaotic mayhem. Realizing that she would do anything for the dark prince, she bought an outfit for herself and became his on-and-off lover and partner in crime where she proudly served as a sidekick. His horned-helmet became her prized possession as a symbol of her ""lover"", hoping that someday she would wear it and finish the job that he has started.

Before the war between Jotuns and Asgardians, she befriended Odin when they were teenagers and slowly fell for each other. When Odin was king of Asgard and the cold realm of Jotunheim was in crumble, she felt remorse and saved a dying Jotun baby in Laufey's domain, knowing that it was his son. She raised the child for a few weeks but was discovered. Knowing that they were at war, Maleficent was betrayed when Odin used her weakness of iron to burn off her huge feathered wings so that he could ascend the throne of Asgard, taking the baby in the process. Using a staff as a walking stick, a now hate-filled Maleficent names herself ruler of the Moors. She lasted herself in a battle until she was sentenced to enteral prison as a statue in the forest. <br/><br/>|Allies| <br/>- Loki (godson)<br/>- Jeina<br/>- Thor (on-and-off alliance)<br/>- Birds (mostly ravens)<br/><br/>|Enemies|<br/>- Odin<br/>- Thor (on-and-off alliance)<br/>- Asgardians</div>"

Short in height, about 5'2"" with an athletically lean body Summer has elbow length dark caramel brown hair with a light wave to it framing a round, childish face with large hazel eyes.

<span class=""bb-b"">History:</span> Training in gymnastics from a young age Summer joined Haly's Circus when she was only seven, becoming part of the contortion act and using her gymnastic skills to perform difficult flips and tricks. Due to her small size she was also used in the acrobalance. She quickly began friends with Dick, due to their similar ages however after the death of his parents they were forced to separate as she continued to travel with the circus.

However upon entering her last year of schooling she decided to concentrate on her studies and moved in with her Mother in Gotham City and is about to start attending Gotham  Academy (At least I think that's the school).</div>"

Robin: He has developed the persona or side-kick Robin and has fought beside Batman for a couple of years now. Batman's no-nonsense my way or the highway attitude has been rubbing Dick the wrong way. He found some other teenagers who were gifted as well and started a group called the Teen Titans. He has slacked off with the Titans recently to focus on graduating his senior year at Gothan Academy.</div>"

The summer was coming to an end, so the air wasn’t dry or unpleasant and held the slightest chill to it, a sign of the oncoming autumn. Still she pulled at the school tie uncomfortably, gripping the strap of her bad a little tighter as she walked up to the large, very intimidating building. All around her students walked past her, happily chatting to their friends after summer break, completely oblivious to her discomfort and nervousness. It was strange being so intimately close to so many strangers. True, the circus was always crowded but she knew each and every person there, trusted them.

Here any time someone came too close to her she cringed slightly, as if afraid that they might suddenly attack her. Summer wasn’t shy perse, just a little unsure of how to act around people. In the halls she was bumped and pushed as other students walked past her and she spent a lot of her time feeling and looking very lost. She, by some small miracle, managed to find her locker and put her bag inside, happy to be rid of the weight and extra bulk before taking out her schedule and trying to figure out where and what class she was actually supposed to be attending.

Through some small miracle she managed to make it to her first class without being late, then again she’d prepared for it by giving herself a lot of time to account for getting lost. The school was big, but well designed, so it wasn’t that hard to find her classes as the day went on. Regardless she was more than happy when lunch rolled around and she was given a moment to just take a breath and not have to worry about being late to her next class because she was lost or being suffocated by the hoards of students.</div>"

It was another long night he stopped several robberies and nearly had his butt handed to him by a gang of joker wannabe's when the Bat showed up. He was given another of his long winded lectures and humiliated once more. There was a time when Dick had no one at all, that he had looked up to Bruce. Now that he was older Dick anted to be treated like an adult but Bruce still treated him like a child. He had even left for awhile and spent some time with other heroes, including his good friend Cyborg. He left the Titans to finish high school in the esteemed Gotham Academy. He also secretly wanted to prove to Bruce once and for all he could take care of himself.

Dick pulled up to the Academy in his Shelby Cobra; stepping out of his car he straightened his tie and headed to his first class. The first day was always interesting just to see who would be in his classes. Dick walked down the hall and sat in a desk beside a girl that seemed vaguely familiar.</div>"

She watched the kids in line but had packed her own lunch today, unsure if she would have liked anything offered at the school. Looking at the food on offer though she realised her worries had been unfounded. Apparently the private school prided themselves on gourmet lunches. Still, after looking around she moved to sit over on her own in the corner of the lunch room. Now for most of the day Summer had her head down, trying not to draw attention to herself of be noticed.

Now though, she felt a little more confident and actually looked around. Already she could make out the clique tables. The popular kids, the jocks, the nerds, as her eyes scanned over the room however they fell on one figure, walking over to a table with another group of students. Unconsciously she stood and began walking over to him, her hazel eyes fixed on that mop of black hair, completely forgetting about her lunch on her table. At first she thought maybe she had been mistaken. Even as she got closer she still wasn’t sure. It had been so long and he looked so different after all these years.

Approaching the boy shyly, Summer tried to move into a position where she could see his eyes clearly. “Dick?” She asked quietly, looking at him hopefully. “Dick Grayson?”</div>"
25215,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-12 13:08:00,Navy_Vet,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Dick made it through his morning classes, it was pretty lame stuff considering Alfred had tutored him at Wayne Manor, and he knew most of this stuff if not more. Second period was a bit better, Chemistry was something he had been studying with Cyborg and the Titans before returning to Gotham. Third Period was English Literature something ALfred had turned him onto rather quickly. The old butler loved to read in his spare time and was really into it. 

At the sound of the bell Dick entered the cafeteria, finally a break, he thought. He went through the line but only grabbed a couple of bananas for lunch. He was about to begin eating when he noticed a girl walking his way. ""Could it be?"""" he thought to himself, ""After all these years she's here?"" 

She walked up to him and said his name almost as a question, ""Dick? Dick Grayson?"" He stood up from his seat and hugged her. She was the first person he'd seen from his cicus days in years. ""Summer, What are you doing here? I haven't seen you since we were kids."" Turning to the guys at the table he said,""Make room she's with me."" They complied quickly maing room across from Dick so they ould see each other as they spoke. ""What are you doing here in Gotham, Is everything ok?""</div>"
25216,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-12 22:04:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">For a few moments as the question hung in the air Summer was afraid she’d made a mistake. This certainly could have been Dick, but it also could easily have not been him as well. Puberty had changed him a lot. But then what if it was him and he didn’t recognise her? That thought was almost as scary as if she’d made a mistake and she was starting to seriously question her decision to come over here. However when he stood up and hugged her suddenly, all those feelings of doubt and worry seemed to vanish and she hugged him back gently, not wanting to seem too relieved.

She smiled gratefully at him as he asked his friends to move and she sat opposite to him. She quickly nodded to dismiss any fears he may have. “Everything’s fine. I just thought it would be a good idea to finish off school without the distractions of performing so I can really ‘apply myself’.” The way she said the last words hinted that it was more someone else’s idea over her own. She then sighed softly, letting herself relax a little more. “You have no idea how good it is to see you again.” She wanted to say more, about how the circus missed him and his family but she knew it was a topic she shouldn’t bring up.

No one wanted to be reminded of the deaths of their parents. “I was worried that I was going to spend the entire year sitting on my own.” She didn’t want to admit her true feelings about the place, that it was big and scary for fear of looking stupid. These people probably wouldn’t understand. But if they were Dick’s friends then Summer knew they must be nice people, it was still a little intimidating. “But what about you? What have you been doing all these years?” She eventually asked, curious to know how her friend had spent civilian life.</div>"
25217,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-13 04:04:00,Navy_Vet,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""It's great to see you too,"" he listened as she spoke but studied her body language as Bruce had taught him. She seemed a bit tense as she mentioned being here to focus on school, but she did seem genuinely excited to see him. 

""Let me see what have I been doing these last few years? living like I'm still in the circus,"" he teased. The days in the circus were some of the best and worst memories for him. He had still been unable to find the culprit that planted the bomb in the tent that killed his parents. Though he did have some new leads. 

""I've been living mostly here in Gotham, I lived in Jump City the last couple years as kind of an exchange type program. I stayed with a group of kids kind of like me, either orphaned or abandoned. I learned alot from the those guys, and it really made me think about who I am and who I want to be. Now that I'm back here I'm staying in Bruce Wayne's guest house, I'm too independent to share a house with. So I come and go as I please, all he cares about is seeing my grades.""</div>"
25218,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-13 06:19:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Summer smiled slightly as Dick told her about what he’d been up to. “I’m sure Bruce cares about more than just your grades.” The girl decided to add. She’d seen in the news papers that Bruce Wayne, the billionaire had adopted Dick after they’d left Gotham the first time around. The way she saw it anyone who’d gone out of their way to adopt someone and spend all these years with them had to care about more than just school scores. It was hard to tell for sure, since she’d never met the man, but he seemed nice on the TV when she’d watched him.

Summer did have a theory but she decided to keep it for later, if she and Dick got a chance to talk privately. Suddenly she became a lot more aware of the people around her, all these people she didn’t know at all and she sank in her chair slightly, casting her eyes down to the table. Summer had always been a little shy, but this was mostly due to the fact that she’d never had to socialise with strangers on a personal level like this. In the circus there had only been Dick, herself and a couple of others around their age.

But even then she knew everyone so well. She also realised that she really had no idea who Dick was either. Back when they’d been at the circus they’d known everything about each other. Now there were years of his life she had missed. His personality could be completely different from the boy she remembered. What if they weren’t compatible anymore? A past with someone could only get you so far if your personalities clashed. What if he decided he didn’t like her anymore? “So have you decided?” She finally decided to ask. “What you want to be I mean? You said your friends in Jump City made you think about it. Do you know yet?”</div>"
25219,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-15 01:45:00,Navy_Vet,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">""Bruce has had me privately tutored for years, I've already learned French, Spanish and I'm working on Russian. He knows I can probably teach half of these instructors in here but he wants me to graduate from the Academy so it looks good when I try for college. I told him several times I'm not going to college because I'm going to be a detective and most of their training is done on the job. I want to find my parents killers and I want revenge. After that I'm going to work so no one else sees their family murdered in front of them. It may not seem like a grand ambition like a doctor or lawyer but it is important to me. I guess I've been rambling a bit. I'm sorry.""

Dick rubbed his chin for a moment, it was an old tic that he did sometimes when he was nervous or anxious. He had no reason to ask and she probably would say no anyway. It's not like they were still kid's at the circus but he decided to ask anyway.

""After class do you wanna get a burger and shake? It'll be my treat.""</div>"
25220,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-15 02:46:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">“You’ll have to give me tips then. French class in killing me!” Summer said with a small laugh. She went slightly quiet at the mention of his parents, as it had been a topic she had been trying to avoid and she looked down shyly. However at his question the girl looked back up at him and smiled gently, nodding. It wasn’t that she had anything against his friends; it was just that she didn’t know them yet and she wasn’t sure how to act around them. Even with Dick… despite everything it was just always so easy.

Sure they hadn't seen each other for a while, and it would take a while for her to figure out how exactly to act around him, what she could talk about and what to avoid. But he still seemed to be the same kind-hearted guy underneath. His thirst for vengeance was something new to her and although Summer tried to understand it, it just didn’t seem like the old Dick Grayson she’d known. There were bound to be changes over the years. Eventually she nodded slightly, brushing some of the dark brown hair out of her face. “That sounds nice.” She eventually agreed. “But don’t tell the circus… pretty sure they’d fire me if they found out I was eating burgers.” She laughed softly.</div>"

He had Alfred drop me in the middle of the town and left me to figure out how to ask directions and find my own way to the hotel we were staying at. He did that kind of stuff to me everyday for several weeks, in fact I got pretty good at ordering McDonald's in French though Bruce &amp; Alfred never found out about that,"" he said joking.

He smiled at the mention of the circus, he had grown up in the circus and had alot of fond memories there, ""You know I haven't been to a circus since, well you know,"" he said quietly.

""So listen, I have Chemistry, World History, and English Literature this afternoon, What classes do you have? Maybe we got lucky and have one together, if not I can see if I can transfer to one of your classes.""</div>"

It was pretty there, but I didn’t really get to see much of the city we were so busy performing. We haven’t really been overseas much since you left.” She said, trying to put it lightly. “Next time they come to town I’m sure everyone would be happy to see you again, although a lot of new people have come and gone over the years.” At the question she pouted for a moment, trying to remember before she reached into her pocket, pulling out her timetable.

“I think we may have chemistry together?” She asked, sounding unsure as she offered the piece of paper to him so he could check since the whole concept of school timetables confused her. “Other than that I think its math and then… P.E? They said they tried to fit me into classes that I’d be good in, but with most of the classes being full I kind of had to take what was left.” Shrugging slightly. She didn’t mind too much what she’d been given. Al these classes were more than a little confusing for her either way, school was different to being tutored.</div>"

You'd be surprised what you can do with common household items. We used to grow our own snowflakes with pipe cleaners and Borax as well as other stupid things. PE should be fun for you, seriously coming from the circus I know you'll be in pretty good shape, your probably in better physical shape than most of the girls in here. Don't worry though I'll walk you to your next class if you want since we're both in Chemistry, I mean if you can stand being around me that long."" 

There was something about talking to Summer that put him at ease, he was rather surprised that he'd told her as much as he had already, Dick never shared like this with anyone else. Maybe it's just because they were kids together and he was feeling nostalgic. Either way it was great to see Summer again.</div>"
25224,A Robin's Heart,IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76530-a-robins-heart,['1x1'],2015-02-15 04:09:00,Midna-Phobia,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">“Chemistry? For fun?” Summer gave him a sceptical look as the bell rung, signalling the end of the lunch break, which seemed to pass by far too quickly for her liking. “I have to stop by my locker first to get a book… there are so many books.” She said with a sigh. “But I’d love if you walked me to class. I’m getting sick of getting lost. This place is huge; honestly… please tell me it all gets easier?” She was really glad that Dick was here. It was good to see him again after so long.

Standing up Summer began walking back to her locker. “So um…” Something she’d been meaning to ask about the whole time. “Your… friends? They seem… quiet?” She didn’t want to seem rude in front of them and she hoped that he didn’t get mad at her for not making more of an effort to talk to them. But she was quickly getting used to the fact that Dick just seemed genuinely happy to see her. “Your friends from Jump City sound wonderful though” She quickly added. “I’d love to meet them one day.”</div>"

Now those guys just hang around me because of Bruce's money. We get along but I don't really hang out with them after school or anything. Now friends from Jump City are pretty cool. They stay busy though traveling and what not; but if they are ever in the area I will definitely introduce them to you,"" he said as they walked to her locker. 

""So are you still doing the flexible gymnastics act or did you move to the trapeze or something like that? Are you staying with family or friends here or are you in one of those boarding houses?""</div>"

Getting the large, in her opinion overly large, text book from her locker she closed it and began following Dick towards the classroom. “Still do a lot the contortion stuff yeah, but I’m getting a bit big for the aerobatics side, they prefer using younger kids. I graduated to something that can more easily carry my weight. They’ve got me on the trick ponies now, I get to do basically the same thing but with horses.” She missed her pony. She’d gotten quite attached to Star before she’d left.

“That’s about as high as I’m comfortable with going, sorry to say. And I’ve moved in with my mum, I’m staying with her and her boyfriend. She never left Gotham whilst I travelled with the circus.” She explained. “If I’m being honest it was mostly her idea, me coming back here to finish off the last year of school properly. She doesn’t believe that the circus’ tutoring program is enough of an education. Being here… I’m starting to think she’s right.” Everything here was so confusing. She’d never learnt any of the stuff she’d been introduced to today.</div>"

I know what you mean about the circus education though, Bruce had to have tutors to get me to where I was supposed to be; afterwards he just kept pushing academically and to tell you the truth I enjoyed the challenge. Tell ya what if it's cool with your mom maybe you can come riding with me one afternoon at the stables. Bruce always keeps a few horses on the property, though the only time I ever see him ride is when he has a lady friend over. Anyhow Chemistry is right down the science hall here,"" he said as he turned down a long corridor.

Now I think about it… I wonder if she knew you went to this school when she enrolled me here? She was always trying to encourage me to hang out with people who weren’t in the circus; more ‘normal’ people.” It wasn’t that she had exceptionally disagreed with her life choice, it was more just that she wanted her to be something great like a doctor or a lawyer. ‘Make a difference in the world’ her mother had always said. But the circus had always been where her passion had been. She enjoyed it there.

The offer of a ride, however, was too good to refuse. “You can count me in.” She said excitedly as they made their way down the corridor. Although the fact that a building had an entire section dedicated to science. Following Dick in she walked over towards a desk at the back with him, sitting down. “You do realise that if you get stuck with me for a partner I’m going to be no help to you at all.” She said with a small laugh.</div>"

I have no clue how I was going to survive this place without you.” As the teacher came in she fell quiet and looked towards Dick before the teacher began speaking. The class went by in a blur of confusing terms and equations on the board. Even when Dick tried to explain it a lot of the time she was still left feeling perplexed.

Through all the madness they did end up being assigned lad partners, for which she was incredibly grateful. However once the class was over they had to part ways once more, Dick heading off towards History and she to math. At least she hope she’d have a better chance at understanding math. After all there were so many numbers and equations in the world right? Needless to say, by the end of the day she was exhausted. Summer couldn’t even be bothered changing out of the P.E uniform, it was more comfortable anyway. Grabbing her bag now overloaded with homework she made her way to the front of the school, deciding she’d wait for Dick there.</div>"

As soon as the bell rang Dick went out to his car and threw his books in the backseat. The cherry red Shelby Cobra purred as he started it up. Dick turned on the radio to a satellite news feed. It had been a habit formed by years working with Batman and the Titans. Always know what is happening, pay attention to what is and isn't being reported. He waited for Summer to exit the school building, by the time she exited he had already taken the op down on the car. He opened the car door for her and helped her get in with her books.

""So how was the rest of your afternoon?"" he asked as he pulled out of the parking lot.</div>"

Makes my bicycle look like a joke.” She said as he took her books and she slid into the passenger’s seat. However the question made her fidget slightly. “It was… alright. I don’t think the other girls like me very much… they kept giving me really angry glares in gym… though that may have been because I wasn’t very good at volleyball.” She shrugged slightly; she’d always gotten along better with boys anyway. Girls seemed to be drawn to drama, or else were always very keen to create some where none was needed.

“But I enjoyed it. I was thinking of signing up for some kind of afterschool club thing, apparently they look good on your collage application but I figured it would be a good way to make more friends.” Whether she’d actually be successful in that endeavour or not was still up for debate, but she thought maybe if she found something she was good at people might like her because of it. “I don’t suppose Gotham Academy has a circus troupe?” She laughed. “Maybe a gymnastics team or something like that? I mean it’s been a while since I’ve done gymnastics specifically… but it’s kind of like a bike, you never really forget do you?”</div>"

I’ve only been back here for a week or so… but she’s almost never home. She only works a few hours a day, but the rest of the time she’s out socialising. I guess I can’t blame her; she hasn’t had to be a mum for years now so she would have had to find something to do all day.”

She shrugged slightly as they entered the diner. She liked the feel of the place, it almost felt like walking back in time, back to when milk bars were the place all the kids hung out after school instead heading home and playing on the internet. “So there’s really no rush for me to get home. Means I have to start my homework sooner.” Summer said with a laugh as she followed Dick over to a table and glanced at the menu. They’d agreed on burgers and shakes but it never hurt to see what kinds were on offer. “Anything you’d recommend?” She asked, looking back over to Dick.</div>"

My mum wants me to have a ‘normal’ year and do ‘normal teenage stuff’ and if going to a diner and stuffing my face with greasy junk food isn’t a normal teenage thing then I don’t know what is.

<span class=""bb-i"">Arcane words echoed softly through the cold, empty space between worlds, penetrating the semi-unconsciousness of the monster locked within. The whispers reverberated around its skull, pecking at its mostly dormant brain, urging it to awaken.

The chant grew louder as the spell's caster continued, shattering the once complete silence of the darkness. From within the depths of the eternal night, something rustled as feeling began to flow back into the prisoner’s body. Slowly, something began to take form in the depths.

Blacker than the space around it, a form hunched up. It straightened, its outline almost human. Lifting its face upward, it let out a roar of pain that soon shifted into menacingly triumphant laughter. Taking in a deep breath as if it had not done so since the beginning of time, it released it as it lowered its head so its chin nearly rested on its chest.

As the chanting neared its finish, the figure opened its glowing red eyes, and a malicious smile spread over its face, displaying its mouth-full of pointed teeth.

“Freedom,” it whispered, its gravelly voice masculine. Raising its arms to the side, the figure shot upward as a thin crack of light formed above him, the sound shaking the very core of the worlds as his form lifted toward freedom--toward the world he once called his.</span></div>"

London was covered in a layer of snow, the sunlight was bouncing in all direction as the carpet of white reflected the sun's rays. 
Michael watched as the steam of his breath faded away, cars slowly passing by trying not to slip and slide on the slurry that defiled the roads, it had been a long day at work with a rather awkward situation. <span class=""bb-i"">Another student quit, bumped into Alicia again... and still no word from the record label.</span> Michael's eyes seemed lost, carried by dark bags that loomed over his cheeks. He fumbled around in his pocket trying to locate the cold keys, eventually pulling them out and sliding the front door key into the lock. Once inside Michael stripped down and jumped into the shower, he was bothered by the freezing cold water at first but slowly enjoyed the shower as the water gradually warmed up. He got dressed into his casual wear and headed straight out again, leaving the mess of his miserable day behind him.

He had spent hours drinking at the local bar, on his way home he almost gave in and bought a packet of cigarettes, but even the drunk Michael knew that he was giving up. He found himself slipping and sliding all over the place, his balance was terrible after everything he had been drinking. There was an inner feeling in his gut that something terrible was about to happen, he looked around unaware if anyone was watching him and then slowly stumbled into the alleyway. ""urghh.. what's this feeling?"" he mumbled slowly, his speech slightly impaired from the alcohol, not long after he found himself throwing up. He sat there in the alley, head in his hands staring at the pitch black shadows caste along the ground by the street lights. 

His mind went hazy, he started to drift away but his eyes were wide open and he felt like he was still in his body. It was an odd sensation that did not last long, he knew he had to go home but he didn't quite know what to do. Trying to stand up he slowly stumbled forwards, there wasn't to far to go until he was home so step by step he stumbled home.</div>"

Eventually he crawled out of his bathroom and into the kitchen and started to make a sandwich due to his intoxication it took a lot longer than he thought it would but he successfully made a sandwich in the end of it. 

Whiles chowing down on the sandwich he flicked on the TV, <span class=""bb-i"">""Crime rates risen by 9% since February 2014, what exactly is happening to the law in London?""</span> Michael ignored the news and just watched the TV flicker as he changed channels, the sun was slowly rising outside illuminating the buildings on the horizon. The weekend had finally arrived mean Michael could get over his hangover and start wondering around town again shopping for necessities. After finishing his food he slumped into bed feeling light headed and a bit groggy and dozed off.</div>"

Outside was rather sunny again, though Michael felt today was going to be a rather daunting day and something seemed out of place.

He stripped down and got into the shower, the steam heating his skin as it got caught in the small glass box. Once he was freshener up he put clean clothes on and sprayed one cologne over himself, finally leaving with his wallet an  keys. 

Once in town he stopped by a few stores buying some jackets, jeans and some shirts as well as doing his weekly shopping; deciding to it delivered to his apartment later. He watched as the streets poured with people doing their Christmas shopping and spending their money. <span class=""bb-i"">i should head back now, before it gets too crowded.</span>

Michael took a shortcut through the park, watching as families, couples, dog walkers and various other kinds of people passed him by. He sat by a lake and watched the ducks swim around, tapping his pen against his teeth. He still felt some dread towards the day, something seemed so dark.</div>"
25258,[Dead],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76533-dead,['1x1'],2015-02-16 05:18:00,Riven Wight,"<div style=""white-space:pre-wrap;"">[Deleted]</div>"

He watched the ducks, inspected the people around him and admiring how everyone seemed so happy, it was what he usually did at work when serving customers, nothing was nicer than seeing their smiles but it always reminded him that he hadn't really been happy in such a long time. He watched the steam from his breath appear then disappear with every breath he took, he felt like he was being observed from afar, not entirely sure why.

He stood up and looked around before he started to walk, that was when he saw a rather perculiar man dressed in completely brown. He was grinning but it was like the smiles of the people that Michael had seen before, it was sinister and devilish. <span class=""bb-i"">He is probably some drunk, not sure where to go now he has stopped drinking.</span>. Trying to walk as fast as possible he walked the opposite direction, his footsteps making a crunching sound as the destroyed the snow below them. 
<span class=""bb-i"">Bit early to be drinking... then again i can't speak, i was up till early hours in the morning drinking too</span> he now and then looked over his shoulder to see if he was following him, to his surprise the mysterious figure was on his trail, sticking close by.

After half an hour of speed walking Michael turned to address the creep, ""Excuse me can i help you?!"" he had finally lost his patience and exploded with anger. 
""You've been following me for a while now in front of everyone... do i know you?!"" Michael's fists clenched, gripping the handles of the shopping bags.</div>"

You creep, you think I'd be happy the way i am?"" Michael dropped his things, noticing the behavioural patterns of this man. He sensed something wrong with this stranger, it wasn't physical for emotional like fear and adrenaline, but something else inside  of him reacted to this creeps presence.Something happened to his body that HA  changed him, he felt stronger, faster and more confident. 

""So what happens here? You're gonna try and mug me right? I broke our sisters heart and you want revenge?"" Or you just get a thrill from this?"" He started mimicking the Hunter, Circling as well  keeping opposing this man.</div>"

Also even though I get drunk most nights and I'm not entirely happy, it does not mean I'll accept charity from some creepy old man"" he then realised the crowd and started to panic, ""I haven't got time for this, nice meeting you"" he said in a sarcastic tone.

He grabbed his stuff and rushed off home, in hopes he wasn't being tailed again. He got to the front of his apartment and unlocked the door quickly, throwing his new belongings on his chair and sitting on the sofa.
<span class=""bb-i"">What's going on?! Who was he?!</span> the questions roared through his chest, his heart beating faster and faster every second. He took a deep breath then took off his coat, slowly walking towards the kitchen and making himself a cup of tea.</div>"

He shuddered at the thought of bumping into that man again but he had to get food, getting dressed and putting his coat back on and heading off. He shivered as the cold air coursed through his clothes, his breath steaming like a vent.
<span class=""bb-i"">Why is it this cold so suddenly?</span> the sun was still out and the sky was clear, it should have warmed up by now but something wasn't quite right.

After finally making it to the shops Michael grabbed some groceries and headed home, taking alleyways and shortcuts to try and avoid anyone suspicious, though the odds of running into odd people is probably higher in alleys but he was going to risk it. <span class=""bb-i"">Those eyes, they weren't human were they?</span> he asked himself, not really looking ahead.</div>"

""It's fine"" he rubbed his head and started to pick up the things, ""my bad I was not looking where I was walking."" Finally packing all the stuff again he looked at the girl.
""You don't look like you come from around here"" here eyes seemed unnatural, like the man's eyes seemed crazy. Her eyes were kind, beautiful, mystical yet so sharp. 
""Sorry for staring"" he looked away for a second, seeing the hooded character in the distance he grabbed the girl's hand and sped off.

Finally at his front door he painted, fog erupting from his throat repetitively.
""Sorry about that, not sure why I grabbed you... some man followed me here and I panicked"" he unlocked his door and invited her in. ""Come in for now, it's warm and there's tea... plus I don't want to be alone st the moment with that creep around"" he looked at the girl, she was adorable and there was some sort aura she gave off that enticed him.</div>"

Michael asked whilst making a cup of tea for them both ""there's something about you that suggests you're not from around here"" he smiled leaning against the kitchen counter. ""Are you wearing contacts? just thought your eye colour is very rare if it is even natural"" he inspected her, she definitely seemed extraordinary. When the teas were done he set them on the table, watching the steam slowly rise. 

He felt that man's presence again, a dark aura filling the room yet he was sure that they had lost the creep after nearly bumping into him in the alleyway. ""I apologize for dragging you off like that... i've have a weird day today is all. I understand if you leave, i probably scared you... i think this is considered kidnapping"" he laughed awkwardly as he tried to shake off the feeling of dread. He could literally smell the man, the same smell that appeared once Michael and the stranger first met was lingering in the streets outside his apartment.</div>"

He silently watched as she sorted herself out, there was some sort of pleasant aura coming from her which Michael found attracted to. This attraction wasn't on a physical nor emotional level but his instincts were roaring at him, or was it because of the dark aura that filled his body as he kept feeling the creep's presence.
<span class=""bb-i"">Natural eye colour? never seen eyes like those before.</span> He pondered for a bit feeling a but uneasy, this whole situation seemed surreal and abstract. He just met a girl with silver eyes in an alleyway, and some barbaric man looked like he was about to kill him... <span class=""bb-i"">This has been by far the weirdest day yet... not sure if it's good or bad though.</span>

""Well i could help you find the nearest motel is you'd like, though you are welcome to stay here but you'd have to sleep on the couch... i mean it's odd since we just met and all but i won't harm you i promise."" He didn't feel wary about this stranger, he felt like she was a trustworthy person and decided that he wanted to help though he would need to know more about her first before anything is completely decided.
""So do you have a name stranger?"" he asked politely now and then taking a sip of his own cup of tea, ""what kind of business trip are you on?""</div>"

""Well your company has given you a difficult job then"" he laughed a little, ""there's a lot of men here in London, some worse than others."" He wasn't sure he liked the idea of here looking for some random man alone.

""Yer some random man, I have not clue who he is or what he wants"" he sighed as he replayed he moment in his head, ""he just wanted me to join him and his 'master' whatever that means, I assumed he was on drugs or something"" Michael put the cup in the kitchen sink and returned to his seat. ""When I bumped into you I felt this feeling that he was around, that's when I saw him again so I ran"" he didn't mention that he was having the same feeling then, he didn't want seem insane.
""When I first saw him something weird happened, I felt something similar to adrenaline... but it felt out of place"" he shook it out of his head and smiled, ""but hopefully it's over.""</div>"

""Let me see. Well I didn't really get to see him, he was hiding mostly... He had piercing eyes and... this may sound crazy but he was rabid looking, as in he looked like a feral dog..."" He couldn't remember much about the man but he tried to remember more, though in the end he failed.

""He was very suspicious you'd know him if you see him, trust me... He didn't seem to fit here"" he thought about her question for a while, then he answered with a sense of reassurance. ""No, the use of the word Master is rarely used. It was pretty much never used once the there was freedom for the slaves. It's rare for someone to have a master now"" he thought it over in his mind. <span class=""bb-i"">whoever that man was, he was definitely not human...</span> he felt it in his heart, his chest pounding once he started  think about him again. ""I feel as if he is still somewhere here... I feel some peculiar feeling that he is here still"" he silenced himself once he realised he sounded like a paranoid freak, ""ignore me, I'm just shook up from earlier""</div>"

""This has been a week from hell.. broke up with my ex and now she won't speak to me, hungover and stalked by a weird man... the only highlight was making a new friend"" he sighed and leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling in silence.

After a while he decided to take another shower, he had managed to break a sweat running away from that creepy man. ""I'm going to have a quick wash then I'll make us dinner, hope you like Chilli Araya."" He smiled as he disappeared down the corridor.</div>"

Once in fresh clothes Michael reappeared into the living room, still rather damp.

""I should start cooking I guess"" he smiled as he entered the kitchen, he felt a strange feeling now that wasn't quite here before. The feeling was similar to when he suddenly felt stronger but, now for some reason he just felt safer.
He started preparing food, slowly opening the groceries he finally had bought after the long day. ""Make yourself at home, watch tv if you want or something"" he chimed as he cooked along with radio music playing in the background.</div>"

He had a few ex girlfriends over  they never got serious before, he never really felt the need to settle with anyone. Each girl had their own little perky attitudes but he never really fell for them in a serious way. 

""Jabberberries?"" He asked wondering what exactly she was going on about, ""sure, can you cut the onions please"" he asked nicely as he handed her a knife. He had never cooked for someone else before, usually his ex would cook for him. ""How good are you with spice? Do your prefer hot or mild?"" He smiled as he prepared the mince for cooking.</div>"

""Go take  seat if you'd like, I can do the rest from here.""  He silently carried on cooking, now and then humming a long to the tune. It wasn't long unti the food was finished, he dished  up unto two plates with a lot left over. He slowly put the plates on the table with cutlery and a couple of glasses. ""There's there on there, I have a bit wine and a few other bits of alcohol"" he offered as he grabbed himself a bottle of cider.

After sitting down he dug in, he was rather hungry as he hadn't eaten most of the day. He felt rather conscious  Araya's presence, now and then he would look up and watch her eat. He felt he should start small talk, but didn't know what quite to say.
""So you have any brothers or sisters?"" He asked as he finished his mouthful.</div>"

""Thank you"" he replied feeling rather happy that she liked his food. He carried on eating, enjoying his favourite dish. He felt a sense of uneasiness, as if someone was trying to break his personally little bubble.

""What do you mean we have to leave? What's wrong?"" He watched her grab her bag, ""well... run... let me grab some things"" he ran into his room and grabbed  his own bag filling it with some t-shirts and jeans, he grabbed his coat and returned to Araya, ""what do we now?""</div>"

Is she someone important? What will happen now</span> his train of though was interrupted as he heard the two creatures running after him, they were so much faster. His blood started pumping and the mysterious feeling flowed through him again, not sure what it was he carried on going but repetitively looking behind him, they were getting closer.

""Soon I think... You should explain what is happening"" he painted out, diving in and out of alleyways to try and lose the two hunters. Though it didn't seem to work as they were still gaining on them.

His train of thought suddenly stopped as he felt a stinging pain across his back, turning  see what happened he realised that the larger, darker wolf had attempted to grab him but ended up scratching him, the slimmer wolf had disappeared from sight. 
""We've lost the o the  one... or he is somewhere else"" he felt the breath of the creature on his neck, turning to see that he was instances away Michael stopped and attempted to kick it back a bit with a surprising mount of force.
Kartook hurried through the air for a second or two and grunted as he regained his composure, soon returning the chase.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Did i just travel with magic? Wait that can't be possible, what is happening here?</span>
His heart rate was racing and his mind was swirling from the sudden incident, he couldn't quite understand what had just happened. Being chased by half man half wolves, a random girl that could use magic and some desire to stay by her side even after the whole accident.
He stood up finally regaining his balance and started to pace around the snow, it crunching under his foot steps and leaving a mark.

""I think now is the time to tell me what the hell is going on!"" he was panicking, confused and had no clue where he was. Noticing her exhaustion he walked over and helped her up, ""what were they? where are we? what did he mean by 'Chosen ones'?"" He had so many questions but no answers at all, and there was the threat of the two hunters returning looming on his mind.</div>"

""Ok then, i have no clue actually, let's see. We may be in a park somewhere... i'm pretty new to London so i am not sure at all"" he sighed as he handed her one of his spare hoodies, ""You better layer up, it's really cold here and i don't want you catching a bug"" he smiled softly as he inspected the area.
""Wait, you mean we are both chosen?! how i mean, why?!"" he didn't quite believe that he too had some sort of role in this messed up incident.
He wondered around trying to look for some sort of sign to help him figure out their location though the only thing he could see is the Big Ben. ""Araya we need to head away from the Big Ben, i live near it, so if we head in that direction we'd be safest""</div>"

Science always said that alternate dimension and parallel universes may or may not exist so he was pretty sure that maybe there was a chance she was telling the truth but these theories had never really been proven, and whatever spell or trickery she used to travel a mile or so in the matter of a few seconds was proof that something paranormal or magical was happening. 
""Is there something i should know about being chosen? Am i magical or something because if i am i have never used it before and don't feel magical at all"" he tried imaging fire in his palm but nothing appeared, which made his heart sink.
""I'm pretty much useless so i don't think i am the chosen one, maybe they got me mixed up with someone"" he laughed nervously, hoping that was the situation and hand as he was not prepared for anything like this.
""I just want my boring, dull life back. Sure it was depressing but i wasn't being eaten by wolves or on the run."" He sighed as he looked around, noticing how the sun bounced off of the snow and lit up Araya, ""Thank you by the way... for saving me... the only benefit of all of this was meeting you"" he chuckled a little, still hoping this was some sort of trick.</div>"

""Well, until today i was fine. This morning i felt this sense of dread all morning, i tried to when i was approached by that... thing. When we started to speak something felt odd, it was like adrenaline, but on a whole new level"" he scratched his head as he tried to explain it without sounding insane.

""Then there was the alley, when i met you i again had a strange feeling... it was the opposite though, i felt calm and secure yet it was not emotional... it just felt right""  he smiled gently and carried on recapping his day, ""I got the feeling of dread and adrenaline again so i instantly realized he had found me again so i dragged you to mine. When we were there i still felt him linger, the sense of dread got thicker once they broke down my door."" That was the moment Michael realized that there was no returning home, this was it for him now.
""Then during the chase i instinctively attacked the wolf, i was able to send it flying into the air somehow... even though it was way heavier than me. I don't understand to be honest, I know have always been physically better than most of the people i know but not strong.""

He remained silent for a while, thinking about the whole day but couldn't quite forget how upset Araya looked when she muttered about how her life had turned, ""I'm sorry, i have been so selfish... you helped me and all I've done is complain, well i'll help you get home somehow""</div>"

How do we get to 'your world'?"" He wondered to hkm himself for a bot, [b]why would it would be difficult, couldn't get just go back to the place she used to get here in the first place?[/i] 

""Sure I don  mind jumping from shadow to shadow for a while but jus  be careful, it's dark and we may end up.in the wrong kind  of places. Michael thought back to the first time she made him travel through a shadow, due to the surprise he panicked and ends  up feeling I'll but hopefully now he is aware he felt he may be able to handle it.

""Do you have a plan?"" He asked before  leaving, ""is there somewhere we can go to hide? Is there a way to your world? Someone from your old that could help us?"" He wanted to know if there was any hope left, or if they were stranded against the wolves.</div>"

""Never mind, jumping it is. Did you know that Stonehenge isn't considered a henge? because all over henges have their ditches on the inside but only Stonehenge has the ditch on the outside"" He realized he was rambling on and decided to silently wait for the tea.</div>"

Not a huge fan of green tea and stuff but can drink it from time to time. I usually drink a lot of coffee to be honest"" he laughed a little, slowly drinking. ""Well today has been crazy, i can't wait to get some sleep."" He downed the rest of his drink and left the money on the table. ""lets go.""<br/><br/>Wondering around for some time he finally found a decent little motel to stay in. ""Two people please"" he asked the hotel manager, not sure on what to say.<br/>He handed over the money and was handed a set of keys, wondering around he finally found the door number that matched the keys he slipped them in and the unlocked the door. The room was rather small but tidy, two single beds were placed in the center, dressers either side of them with little lamps sat above them. In front of the beds was a small TV and a couple of tacky paintings, round the corner was a door to the on suite bathroom.<br/>""Guess we should make ourselves comfortable hey?"" he said as he threw his bag on the be and pulled out fresh clothing, ""I'm going to have a shower, don't get into any trouble ok?"" he winked as he disappeared.</div>"

He developed this habit from young age and it stuck, though he had stopped for a little while until now.<br/><br/>""So, when you find the one, how do you know? There are many men on Earth... isn't there some sort of way to decided on who the MAN is?"" he asked, part of him wanted to be this chosen one as it meant he could go with her but part of him didn't believe that he of all people could be this man. <br/>""I mean surely there must be some sign right? a big congrats banner? a bright, holy light?"" he watched Araya intently, ""It just seems odd that they would send you on a goose chase for someone you don't know anything about without letting you know when you finally find the guys... it doesn't make sense to me is all.""</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">IRL History</span>: Isaac lives far from any relatives and has few friends. He lives through a cycle of work, eat, sleep, and repeat and often finds comfort by himself. He;s largely an introvert in person, but in game, he's quite the opposite. For years he's been estranged from his family in Texas, though he vists every once in a while to maintain appearances. Isaac has a love for linguistics as much as he loves gaming; though he's not the best at the latter. 

<span class=""bb-b"">In-Game History</span>: Palanayukei is a well known player, especially among new players. He frequents the starting town of Der Monde and helps lost players find their way and teaches how Der Monde works. He's been a member of a guild or two, but prefers smaller setups such as groups/parties or direct friends. Palanayukei is often challenged to a duel by other players because of his renown as the game's first <span class=""bb-i"">Battle Mage</span>. He earned the title Battle Mage by building his stats very carefully. In fact, it took multiple skill and status resets (paid for in-cash to Der Mond inc.) before he finally achieved the tank-worthy magic fighter that he's become. Palanayukei generally prefers to fight with a sword and wand, but he has been known to dual-wield wands or swords as well.</div></div>

Der Monde
 

<span class=""bb-b"">Races:</span>
All characters in Der Monde are human aside from a few who are given the choice to create a character of a different race
 - Animal-Humanoid
 - Fairy
 - Dragon
 - Elf
 - Harpy
 - Ogre

<span class=""bb-b"">Classes</span>
Each character is composed of two classes, weapon class and a magic class that evolves over time.
Characters are free to use only magic, only weapons, or use a mixture of both. As available skills and spells evolve over time, the user will become more aspected towards their character's focus points. Characters can pick skills that are beyond their normal focus as well.

Skills also range from basic attack/healing/buffs to summoning creatures/items or controlling animals. There are also unaspected and specially apsected types of magic (like psychic and summoning) that have a wide array of functions.

There is also a multitude of crafting skills available (from cooking to weaponsmithing) but we won't go into those here.


<span class=""bb-u"">Single Wield (one and two-handed):</span>
 - Sword (rapier, dao, greatsword)
 - Javelin/Lance (polearm, bo, etc.)
 - Axe (throwing, two or one handed)
 - Mace (1-2 handed)
 - Whip 
 - Knife/Daggers
 - Bow &amp; Arrows
 - Crossbow
 - Gun
 - Wand
 - Staff 
 - Book
 - Totem

<span class=""bb-u"">Dual-Wieldable</span>
 - Sword
 - Short polearms
 - Axe
 - Mace
 - Knife/Daggers
 - Crossbow
 - Gun
 - Wand
 - Totem

<span class=""bb-u"">Magic Elements:</span>
 - Earth
 - Flora (plants)
 - Fire
 - Air
 - Water
 - Lightning
 - Gravity
 - Psychic
 - Fauna (animals)
 - Ether (aka ""unaspected"" magic)
 - Machinist (also unaspected)
 - Fairy (multi-elemental and unaspected magic granted only in certain occasions/events)
 - Vampirsm (uniquely aspected magic earned after a specific number of PK's, similar to fairy)



<span class=""bb-b"">What makes it unique</span>
Each character is made of a unique set of traits that evolve as the character progresses. During the first few levels, several skills are available for use, including magic and physical skills. The two go hand in hand as the character progresses through the world. Never actually <span class=""bb-i"">leveling</span> but by earning more and more skills that evolve and change with time and experience. Characters unique to Der Monde often learn skills native to other games when present in said world. The reverse is true with players from other MMO's that visit Der Monde.

<span class=""bb-b"">Stats</span>
Stats are very malleable and can be changed easier than most MMO's allow
Characters don't level up, instead they gain new skills 


<span class=""bb-b"">Storyline behind the MMO?</span>
In Der Monde, each character plays a character whether an adventurer or merchant. Each territory is vast and dotted with dungeons. Never ending quest lines that boost and create new stats for characters are constantly evolving. Some characters rest high in virtual empires while others cross the land with friends in search of treasure. Others seek to unlock hidden skills to monopolize economies or share the wealth and information. With a countelss array of storylines, it's a tough game to get bored with.


<span class=""bb-b"">What else?</span>

Will add as needed.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-b"">What Makes it Unique</span>: This is a virtual MMO based on Gothic horror. Players are encouraged to play as either a Werewolf, Vampire, or human. Killing between these races is highly encouraged. Killing your own race is highly discouraged. The world is mostly heavily forest and home to zombies, wolves, giant spiders and other creatures that go bump in the night. Daytime only lasts for a few hours of the day. The night sky is dominated by three moons. One for each race. As their respective moon waxes or wanes, each race gains different stats or combat advantages.

<span class=""bb-b"">Races</span>: 

<span class=""bb-u"">Vampires</span>- masters of the night and the main users of magic. During the brief day, they are unable to regenerate health, magic, or stamina while in direct sunlight. All are given a blood gift that allows them to regenerated magic, health, and stamina faster the more damage they deal to the opponent. Higher level vampires can gain the ability to fly.

<span class=""bb-u"">Werewolf</span>- This race looks human except for distinctive animal eyes. They can chose to have a tail or animal ears if they want. While not in direct sunlight, Werewolves are able to take on a beast form at will. While in beast form, they cannot use magic but gain a bust in strength and speed. Their armor they were wearing translates into the toughness of their hides, and their weapon translates into damage their bite and claws inflict. Also while in beast form, their stats increase proportionally to how close they are to zero health.

<span class=""bb-u"">Humans</span>- The basic and most common race of Blood Moons. Humans get no penalty for being in daylight, which seems like an advantage. They are good in all forms of combat and magic. A human can become infected with werewolfism and vampirism, and turn unless they pray at a shrine of the Archangel. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Fighting</span>: players can fall into one of five classes regardless of race. Any class can carry any kind of weapon and armor, however they tend to be more effective with certain kinds.

<span class=""bb-u"">Ranger</span>- Master of Bows and crossbows. ranged specialist and wilderness survivalists

<span class=""bb-u"">Sorcerer</span>- User of all forms of magic except summoning and healing. Magic is based of a combination of 27 unique runes which can be arranged from one to four rune combinations. Every combination from a single rune to a string of 4 runes is a spell. (think the game ""Lost Magic"" for the Nintendo DS).

<span class=""bb-u"">Knight</span>- Typically heavy armored and heavy weapons. They are the tanks of any battlefield.

<span class=""bb-u"">Healer</span>- This class heals things. All can heal with herbs without refining them into potions. However, this class operates slightly differently based on race. Humans use healing light granted from the Archangel to heal. Vampire heal by draining the vitality of the world around them. Werewolves heal through shamanistic chants and song.

<span class=""bb-u"">Rouge</span>- these are the assassins of the world. Greater ability of stealth than rangers. They use daggers and crossbows assassinate leadership of the other races.

She is a member of the vampire race in the game Blood moons. She tends to wear dresses and skirts more than heavy armor. She is a high enough level to have the ability to fly.

He works solid ten hour shift Monday through Thursday so he gets Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off. In his free time, he does a lot of immersion gaming. He stays in good physical shape to meet the demands of his job but that is about it. He cooks for himself, cleans his apartment and generally keeps to himself when not at work. He likes it this way. He has no family to bother him. He mostly plays Blood Moons and since he was among the original developers he gets a small percent of the profits from its sales.

<span class=""bb-b"">In-Game History</span>: She was among the originals who played the game Blood Moons in its beta. Because of her participation in the games beta, she was given black angel wings for her vampire character rather than the bat like wings vampire who did not participate in the beta. In the game Blood Moons she is well known as one of the most powerful vampires, but willing to help all players be they human or werewolf. She tends to freely gift treasure she has no use for to newer players. She is mostly a solo player only joining parties for brief periods. In a group she mainly works in a support role.</div></div></div>"

King of Rumble is set on a single continent  with a few islands dotted around and is about the size of Japan and shaped like a half moon crescent.

<span class=""bb-b"">IRL History:</span>
The only son of a Japanese woman adopted into America, Mikoshiba, referred to as Miko by his friends, was raised in downtown Atlanta- the better side of it, that is. After completing elementary school, he got into an arts school for the rest of his middle and high school career. He focused on digital media and animation, after learning off the massive indie market for the videos. He followed this track into college, looking to graduate straight into a job. In his free time, which always varied, he played VRMMOs, specifically Der Monde. Miko enjoyed the freedom of the game, compared to the other hundreds with outlines classes and stats.


<span class=""bb-b"">In-Game History:</span>
In Der Monde, cr0w isn’t famous, or infamous. People just know of him. No one really knows what he does, due to the fact he always seems to be something else. He’s higher-tiered in the PvP circuit, due to his high-mobility playstyle, and he’s often seen in the front lines of raids, as well. People say that guilds will sometimes hire him to fight their battles. He’s an all-around talented fighter, and that’s what people recognize about him.</div></div></div>"

Right in the starter town, just where your character lands on its dragon for the first time. Before they gained 'control' of the situation, new players were being sucked down into the entrance of the data-eating dungeon. It was merely a black square. Fine and without detail, but it had this sense of <span class=""bb-i"">gravity</span> that made you want to touch it. They said it couldn't have been much higher than your head and about as wide. More like a featureless, black outhouse or a large void stone. Everyone of Dragon Riders of Malm thought it was an event. Malm was known for having forceful events. And since contact with the brick resulted in teleportation to a dungeon which proved to be impassible very quickly, it drew more and more people.

Then people started dying.
Or worse; falling into comas. 

The GM's of Malm were able to move the starting location for the game. The player deaths and real deaths slowed considerably. But there was no clear way of stopping this data eating <span class=""bb-i"">thing.</span> Dragon Riders of Malm was the first to fall. It was as if all data regarding the game was gone. It couldn't be accessed from outside servers. Characters within the game during its disappearance reported their immersive devices, such as NerveGear and the new MindPortal, simply shut off. When they tried to log back in, they were transported to another game; Pale Forests Awakened. And just like Dragon Riders of Malm, Pale Forests Awakened befell the same fate. Two more entire worlds have been destroyed since then; Magiqua, a mages-only game and FloraxFuana, an MMO where characters take the shapes of various animals and plants. Webs of the strange data-eating monsters permeate throughout several worlds. Though death by one of these data-eaters is not imminent death, it is still risky. Few characters risk fighting them and those that do, they almost always return with data corruption. The tower has been missing ever since the death of Flora&amp;Fauna, which reported over one-hundred fifty deaths. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-i"">Der Monde; Fileds of l'Ahntia</span></span></span>

Isaac, better known as Palanayukei in this world, stood on top of a large hill. Violet mountains cascaded behind him and red grass glittered across the vast fields below. Wylia, or his Wind Nymph, sat on his shoulder, a green aura emitted from her body as the sun dipped below the horizon. Far off in the distance, data-eaters, or <span class=""bb-i"">DE's</span> as he called them, roamed over a hill. The data-eating tower has yet to be seen since the death of Flora&amp;Fauna and many fear that it may be in one of the larger games as Der Monde, Blood Moons, or even Sword Art Online. The search has been on for several months. 

Palanayukei headed down the hill, watching his map closely as he encroached on the DE's to ensure nothing attacked him from the flank. Golden words appeared across his visor ""Der Monde; Fields of l'Ahntia"" it read. The starter area for many Der Monde players. There's no better place to destroy these things than in the starter areas, he was trying to rationalize the risk he was about to take <span class=""bb-i"">again</span>. Closer to the beasts now, he hid behind one of the bulbous trees dotted along the field, he drew two crystal wands. One black as night, the other radiated white light.

""Beim ehren meida, Beim ehren meidi,"" <span class=""bb-i"">I wish one, I wish two</span> ""gonn deim Ehrt"" <span class=""bb-i"">from the earth.</span> ""Alu ehren foia"" <span class=""bb-i"">And one from flame.</span>

Two large stony golemns grew out of the ground. Grass donned on their forearms and shoulders. Out of the air, a small child made entirely of flame appeared.

""God, I shouldn't do this,"" he mumbled to himself as he rounded the tree and his three summons headed for the closest data eater. . .

She had established far too much in her vampiric homeland. However, the threat of a data eating virus made her leave her usual hunting ground. She made her way to the world and game of Der Monde. On the fields of l'Ahntia, she found what she assumed was her first data eater. It matched the description of what an info broker had informed her it looked like. She could see that her prey was being hunted my anther. She watched the man as he summoned a series of golems. She smiled. This player could do magic she couldn't. It meant that he could at least be a useful distraction.

Victoria moved to a location where she had a good line of sight but a safe distance from the data eater. She stood and held her bow in her left hand. She raised her right hand and said, ""Cast on!"" A magic circle floated in front of her. ""Fire 1"" she drew a simple fire rune with her empty right hand. Then waved her hand like hitting the reset on an old typewriter. The fire rune merged with the spell circle. ""Light 1"" She drew a rune of light and added it to the circle. ""Wind 2"" after drawing a wind rune. She added it to the circle and said, ""Exist!"" The spell circle collaped leaving a floating ball off ghostly fire. She quickly raised her bow and fired three arrows through the fireball at the data eater. As the arrows passed through they ignited with magical fire. As the arrows made their marks, they exploded in blue flames.</div>"

She knew that what she had done wasn't exactly sportsman-like, however it was the groups fault things ended the way that they had. The agreement was that she would help them find the treasure room in a dungeon they were raiding and she would receive a very valuable piece of the prize. Well she had done her part by using her skills as a treasure hunter to lead the party to the treasure trove they had been searching for, they however thought they'd change the terms of their deal once the treasure was in their hands. What they hadn't expected was for Nova to outright PK the leader of the party and take her pay by force. Now they chased her out of spite for being a better fighter and taking back what was hers.

Diving toward the ground, Nova disappeared into a network of underground tunnels. She would lose them where her illusion magic worked best, in the darkness. The tunnels would force her and her pursuers to land, giving her enough time to find somewhere to hide. Feet hitting the ground lightly, Nova took off running as quickly as possible down the dark corridor not waiting to see if the party was still following her. As expected, the group hesitated at the entrance, hitting the ground a littler harder in their rush to go after her. They took off after her but it was already too late, Nova had found herself a crack in the wall to wedge into. ""­Þik sér óvíss grœnn lopt"" (Wrap us in opaque green air). A green light encircled her avatar, making her invisible to the eyes of those who passed her, Nova resisting the urge to laugh as they barreled passed.

Waiting until the sound of their footsteps disappeared, Nova broke her concealment spell and took off toward the entrance. Once able to fly again, Nova raced toward Spriggin territory where'd she be safe from outside attack. Once locked in her room, Nova collapsed on the bed and sighed. She caught her breath and sat up, swiping the air for her menu. Nova was slightly surprised to see a message waiting for her, figuring she must have missed it during her trip to the dungeon. ""Trouble in paradise huh?"" She sat back, reading the message over again. ""Guess I'm taking a trip to Der Monde.""</div>"

http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76401-sword-art-online-like-role-play/ooc?page=2#post-2393297

And for those who showed interest in my idea, here it is again:

Rule 1. Be literate and use a spellchecker

<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Everyone Loves It."" type=""button"">Everyone Loves It. [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none"">I want to do a sword-art Online RP suuuper bad!  

But the idea I have is way after the fact of the original scenario. You know, how all immersive MMO's were linked? Each of us could be from a game, or two people from the same game. Alfheim, SAO, and a few others we've made up individually. 

The plot would be a Virus that takes shape of an enormous data-eating dungeon. 

The dangers of the virus would be leaving someone in a coma (unless we want to take a different route).   

Once a game is taken over completely, the virus-dungeon appears in a new MMO.
No one has been able to beat the dungeon and entire worlds are lost before a group even turns brave enough <span class=""bb-i"">to</span> enter</div></div>


The story thus far. . . 

This RP picks up several years after the boom of immersive MMORPG's. As such, regular people can create their own worlds with their own stats and traits. Then, each character can be shared across an innumerable amount of other gaming servers. Skills and stats carry over. All of the algorithms are adjusted perfectly and no data is loss when transitioning.

SAO now spans over five-hundred floors. ALO is now the #2 MMO of all time, second to SAO. The Alf race has also become available upon completing hidden quests in Alfheim Online. Upon completion of this quest, the player can become an Alf or their original race as they please. They can grant another player (<span class=""bb-i"">any</span> player) the gift of the Alf and all of its special characteristics, such as a much longer flight time. However, the gift can only be given once per year starting one-year prior to the character obtaining the Alf ability.

Hundreds of thousands of other games also exist. Some, much smaller than others. And some who's realms span hundreds of servers across the globe. SAO, ALO, and the third ranking game, Der Monde (DM)

to be continued













Lists of worlds/MMO's will be listed in the character sheet section. Post your character here as well as in the Character Sheet list for future reference.

<span class=""bb-b"">Name</span>
Der Monde
 

<span class=""bb-b"">Classes</span>
Heavyblade - greatsword
Rogue - two blades
Polearm - javelin
Daoist - hooked-swords
Fencer - epee/foil
Archer/Gunner - bow&amp;arrows/long ranged
<span class=""bb-b"">open to suggestions</span>

Magnus- i.e. black-mage
Phage - i.e. white-mage
Summoner- i.e. unaspected/nonelemental-mage and summoner 

<span class=""bb-b"">What makes it unique</span>
Each class comes with different magical stats, giving each character a very unique build in their character. As such, no two characters have the exact same skillset. Each character learns different skills and spells based on the stats they level up as they move through Der Monde.
After each character levels, they are given the option to press for a new skills or to wait until the next level up. Often, characters will save up their rolled-over skill choices to make a stronger build in the longer run. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Stats</span> for example
Stats characters choose from when leveling (purely for example):
We won't focus on stat building really, just to give an idea of the world.
Strength
Dexterity
Skillspeed
Spellspeed
Mind

 - Earth, Fire, Air, Water
 - lightning, gravity, poison, ice,

Unlockable/Hidden Stats and/or Elements
 - Vampirism (evil vampires, always marked 'red' or PKers.)
 - Golemn (made of pure magic)
 - Fairy (plain and simple)
 - Psychic (seeing monster traits of all creatures and other psychic abilities)
 - Machinist (high tech weaponry)
 - and more!
<span class=""bb-b"">open to suggestions</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Storyline behind the MMO?</span>
In Der Monde, each character plays a character whether an adventurer or merchant. Each territory is vast and dotted with dungeons. Never ending quest lines that boost and create new stats for characters are constantly evolving. Some characters rest high in virtual empires while others cross the land with friends. Others seek to unlock hidden skills to monopolize economies or share the wealth and information. 


<span class=""bb-b"">What else?</span>
All characters are magical but not all are skilled physical fighters and the game is built so character creation in a symmetrical sense is impossible. Characters from this game often have appearances that are altered by their skillsets.</div></div>

She is a member of the vampire race in the game Blood moons. She tends to wear dresses and skirts more than heavy armor. She is a high enough level to have the ability to fly. Since she was involved with the beta testing, Her vampire wings look like a black angel wings unlike the normal bat wings. It is a pure cosmetic design it does not provide any combat advantage.</div></div>
<span class=""bb-b"">IRL History</span>: William lives a lone in a small 2 room apartment. He has a steady job as a paramedic on an ambulance crew at a local hospital. He works solid ten hour shift Monday through Thursday so he gets Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off. In his free time, he does a lot of immersion gaming. He stays in good physical shape to meet the demands of his job but that is about it. He cooks for himself, cleans his apartment and generally keeps to himself when not at work. He likes it this way. He has no family to bother him. He mostly plays Blood Moons and since he was among the original developers he gets a small percent of the profits from its sales.

<span class=""bb-b"">In-Game History</span>: She was among the originals who played the game Blood Moons in its beta. Because of her participation in the games beta, she was given black angel wings for her vampire character rather than the bat like wings vampire who did not participate in the beta. In the game Blood Moons she is well known as one of the most powerful vampires, but willing to help all players be they human or werewolf. She tends to freely gift treasure she has no use for to newer players. She is mostly a solo player only joining parties for brief periods. In a group she mainly works in a support role.</div></div></div>"

Heyy, for your character's game of origin, can you please write a CS for King of Rumble?
Just a little bit about what makes it unique (e.g., all fist-fighter characters) etc.
And as for the stats, they don't need to have actual <span class=""bb-i"">numbers</span> just the fact that they use a certain archetype, but you can leave them as they are. And a brief history about your in-game character is needed too. All in all, I like the character!

After meeting the mischievous God, Loki, the young woman became obsessed with the cunning god's warped mind. She was completely devoted to the Jotun, totally oblivious to his sly and cunning nature.

<span class=""bb-b"">Zade Magnus</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Fleeter</span>
Age: 32
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Green
Height: 6'2""
Body Type: Between average and a little toned

Other Information: Zade is a newscaster for Trip City. He's not particularly famous, but he has a familiar enough face that makes him recognizable if he was seen on the street. He doesn't look very friendly and always seems to be in a bad mood about something, but it's just the way he carries himself. On screen he's serious and does his job well. Not much else is known about him as he keeps his distance from everyone. He will wear sunglasses which keeps people from recognizing him most of the time, but it's not like he's a celebrity. Most people don't go crazy for a newscaster, and if you do, you might be considered weird, especially to him.

<span class=""bb-i"">Ves</span>
Age: 18
Hair Color: Dark brown, almost black.
Eye Color: Glassy light blue.
Height: 6'
Body Type: Toned/leanly muscular.

Other Information: Jason grew up in the bad neighborhood of Trip City. His father was a drunk, and his mother a, to be blunt, whore. After an argument that ended with his father having his face kicked in, Jason was sent to juvy for a few years. When he came back, no one could remember him; probably because of how fast he changed and grew from the boy before. He mainly does odd jobs around town, although he has been looking for something more higher-paying.

<span class=""bb-i"">SilverWolfAngel</span>

Hair Color: Red with black tips
Eye Color: the left one is Dark purple-blue, the right is hidden under the eyepatch and is a pale blue and scarred.
Height: 5’10”
Body Type: sort of lanky.

Other Information: While Arran is a girl, she is often mistaken as a boy, and glad for it; she hates having to be defined as a girl. The only thing defining Arran as a girl is the tiny little fact that she is one. Other than that she walks like a boy, talks like a boy, basically almost is a boy. She is often confused for being a boy and never corrects anyone when they get it wrong. A little naïve, Arran doesn’t go to school, instead learning what she wants to learn, as and when she wants to learn it. She is an artist, and sings, but never for others to hear. She spends her time reading and wandering round the city sketching.

Body Type: Thin/Athletic 

Other Information: Marius, a sociopath with a deadly grudge for the sell-out CEO of TripTech LLC., recently graduated from the prestigious T.C.T.E.C. (Trip City Technology and Engineering College), only to find that his finely-honed engineering skills would turn into a side project in his free-time. While weapons engineering is Marius' mainstay, he tends to dabble in other technology-related arts, when he isn't working a full-time plastic-molding labor job to maintain his awful, meager living.

Hair Color: Blonde. Her roots are showing.
Eye Color: Black. She puts on gold contacts when going out to match her hair.
Height: 5""2'
Body Type: Not very slender, but not very chubby either. In between.

Other Information: Honestly, she doesn’t care. She doesn’t have the energy to care about anything. She often spends time at home playing video games and has enough money for it; she writes best-selling novels which usually sell for a lot under a pen name, which brings her enough money for her own apartment and various gaming consoles. She is very flexible and agile due to years of gymnastics, and is well versed in fighting as she used to be a delinquent in middle school. She doesn’t have any traumatic past or lack of parental love, but often rebels for the fun of it, which caused her parents to give up on her. Once again, though, she doesn’t care. She rarely does.

Xander is a nice and usually friendly person but also has his dark and more sadistic sides for a ""reserved"" group of people (Evil). He loves both videogames (especially Touhou and Fighting Games) and MMA, being taught by his father five different types of martial arts he never really gets picked on. People tried to bully him for sure but only ended up being knocked out on the floor and sent to the principal's office, no one, due to ignorance knows the types of martial arts he practices but it is said he knows Muay Thai and a bit of Brazilian Juijitsu and Shoot Wrestling, but it is clear he knows far more than the three. He is extremely skilled in his martial arts and weapon combat, he also mixes in his flexibility with his fighting style as to surprise his opponents and bear locks easier, meaning he should never be underestimated in a fight. For his less violent personality, he enjoys videogames and quite an active gamer while not training with his martial arts skills, notable titles include Touhou, Street Fighter, and Assassin's Creed. He is known to be immensely friendly but also serious at times as well as childish, this can be noted on how he carries a Touhou plushie in his backpack and will be seen admiring it in public (e has a collection of them) every day. Though it is clear he does this for two reasons; one, he loves the franchise and characters, two he's attracting a fight. He earned the nickname of ""Vega"" (coming from his favorite videogame character in Street Fighter) after showing off a bit of his sadism when leaving school having a gun pulled out on him as for money, there is a possibility that he has a split personality, even he himself is wondering it and is unsure of it, for now, any sadistic or more insane outburst he has he blames on 'Romulus.' When he is in one of his 'Romulus moods,' fear and shyness disappears and begins to act more cruel, mean, sadistic, and perhaps insane. He clearly is not to be trifled with. He is known through out the high school he goes to, but doesn't or can't make any friends due to the people there at the school, if anything he has acquaintances but not friends. He's always look to find someone to be his friend and who'll understand him. He started living alone in his parents former apartment after their untimely death, it was fully payed off and there was enough money in their bank accounts to continue paying the bills, it's been three months and his plushie cuddling and search for a friend increased drastically, he clearly did not want to be alone.</font></div></div>

She often spends time at home playing video games and has enough money for it; she writes best-selling novels which usually sell for a lot under a pen name, which brings her enough money for her own apartment and various gaming consoles. She is very flexible and agile due to years of gymnastics, and is well versed in fighting as she used to be a delinquent in middle school. She doesn’t have any traumatic past or lack of parental love, but often rebels for the fun of it, which caused her parents to give up on her. Once again, though, she doesn’t care. She rarely does.

The world has been in peace for 10 years. In this time, there has not been wars wasting resources, like forcing diplomatic or religious views on other cities. Each city continues the working trend of attempting isolation from other cities. However, minus economic and cultural trade and scientific study. Despite speculation that peace wouldn't continue, it has for a while, thus scientists and engineers have gained a standing over the seemingly no longer needed military. A boom in technology is predicted soon, as scientists and engineers try to make the world a better place.

Anymore and it will start to erode away.”</span></font>

The sudden voice jolted Autumn out of the thoughts that had been stealing her attention. The girl glanced up from the booth table to see Jack standing in front of her. Her uncle stood at a good six feet with broad shoulders and a tapered waist. His legs were long and lean which allowed him to move and move fast. The man had a strong jaw with prominent cheekbones and full lips. His eyebrows, set over bright blue orbs, were bushy. Jack had one eyebrow raised, staring at his adopted niece with an inquisitive look, wondering what it was that had distracted Autumn so. Normally the girl was very focused but over the past few days Jack noticed that Autumn’s concentration seemed to be elsewhere. 

<font color=""lightgreen"">”Are you feeling alright Autumn? You've been in a daze all morning.</font>

Autumn straightened, rag still clenched in her hand. <font color=""violet"">”I apologize Uncle. I assure you I am fine.”</font> Jack’s eyebrow raised even higher at that statement. <font color=""lightgreen"">”Fine? Now don’t give me that lass, you are most certainly not fine. Or are those bags under your eyes simply a new fashion statement?”</font> Autumn’s hand subconsciously reached up to touch the bruise-colored mark under her right eye. Yes, she would admit that they looked bad when she had seen her reflection in the mirror this morning but it was just lack of sleep. She told her uncle as much. <font color=""violet"">”It’s fine. I just haven’t been sleeping as well as I normally do.”</font>

She did not know why she did not want to tell her uncle the reason she had been getting so little sleep but she wanted to figure it out on her own. The dream was her problem and she didn’t need to burden her uncle with anymore worry, especially since things were hectic at the bar with them losing a few workers and having to up the work load. 

Jack frowned, sensing that there was something that Autumn wasn’t telling him. <font color=""lightgreen"">”Are you sure? Because you know that you can talk to me about anything that is bothering you.”</font> Autumn gave her uncle a forced smile. <font color=""violet"">”If anything does come up I’ll be sure to some to you.”</font> Jack stared at the girl for a few moments before sighing, realizing that this was all that he was going to be able to get out of Autumn. He nodded and told the girl that he would be in the office if she needed him before heading off. 

With her uncle no longer hovering over her shoulder Autumn returned to wiping down the tables, mind returning to her problem at hand. That dream. That strange dream. She just couldn’t make heads or tails of it. For the past few days she had been having a dream where she is under water. In the dream the water had been so clear that she could see for miles on all side. She had seen the surface simmering above her but no matter how hard she had tried she just couldn’t reach it. The really odd thing was that she could breathe and that her clothes remained strangely dry though she could feel the currants dancing around her. Eventually, she would be able to see a dark mass slowly swimming towards her but she always wakes up before she could catch a glimpse at what it might be. It made her curious and she could just not stop thinking about it. But she hadn’t realized she had been that lost in thought until Jack had said something. She really should stop it, it wasn’t good to be absent-minded when there was work to be done.

With that thought strongly in her mind she forced herself away from the mystery and back into the present. She cast a look around. The bar part of the establishment didn’t open until after five but the restaurant portion opened at around seven. It was generally slow in the mornings and didn’t pick up until lunch time. Which was why Autumn and Sal were the only two waiters until Ryan and Sarah clocked in at eleven. Speaking of Sal, where was he? Autumn scanned the area and finally spotted the boy taking an order from a man in a suit. Realizing that she had spent way too long wiping tables, Autumn put away the rag and took out her notepad as she made her way over to one of the regulars. <font color=""violet"">”Good morning James. What will you be having this morning?”</font> She said as she approached the old gentleman. James grinned at her, the gap where his two front teeth used to be showing prominently. <font color=""lightblue"">”How many times have I told you Autumn, call me Jim. And I will have my usual, like always.”</font> 

Autumn nodded as she scribbled down the order of scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast with a cup of coffee. <font color=""lightblue"">”Anyway Autumn, are you alright? You’re looking a little worse for wear there.”</font> Autumn smiled cordially and repeated the same answer she had given her uncle. Jim looked skeptically at her for a moment. Before he could interrogate her even further, Autumn bowed her head and hurried over to give the cook the order.</div></div>"

This morning had been quite eventful leaving her with a bruise on her arm and an aching cheek. Ebony made her way out of the building and walked down the streets lost in thought. Her mind continued to play the events of the morning over and over again.

<div class=""bb-center""><span class=""bb-i"">Ebony woke up at her normal time and took a shower. She got ready by drying her hair, putting the wavy chocolate brown hair into a bun, then applying the minimal makeup after brushing her teeth.

She walked to the kitchen where she prepared her Managers breakfast and coffee and set it out just as he walked in. He sat down silently and began to eat his food. Ebony had rushed away fetching her phone and purse before walking towards the door. Just as she thought that she was finally free, a tight grip grabbed her forearm. She winced at how tightly he was gripping her arm as he forced her to turn around. ""Where do you think you are going?"" Her manager growled obviously upset. ""You screwed up my breakfast again you stupid brat. Why wasn't there any cream in my coffee and why wasn't there bacon?!"" He yelled angrily. Ebony looked at him scared, ""I-i... We didn't have any bacon left and I forgot about the cream. I'm sorry"" she said not making eye contact. Her manager stayed silent and she thought he would be understanding this time. She was wrong. 

A hand soon connected with her face as he gave her a hard slap and squeezed her arm tighter before pushing her back releasing her arm. ""Stupid brat. Go get more bacon and next time you better have everything I want, or else!"" He threatened before stalking away to his office. Ebony held a hand over her cheek before turning around and rushing out of the condo.</span></div>

Ebony shook her head as she walked down the street. She wasn't in the best part of the city anymore but she could careless right now. She just continued walking with no actual goal as to where she was going.</div>"

Being a...'runner' of sorts wasn't bad. He basically just chilled in his apartment or something until someone sends him a letter, describing where the package is hidden, and where he needs to take said package. He had another package to finish off the day, and it was located in something called The Silver Dragon. As he walked passed the form of a mother disciplining her child, Jason adjusted his hoodie, so that the hood left his upper face in shadows. The young man wore his usual street clothing, consisting of a white long-sleeved shirt un-buttoned half-way, with a half-unzipped gray hoodie over that, and a durable leather jacket with emblems over that. It was practical, casual, and it allowed him to go everywhere without any suspicion - it wasn't ratty enough to get him kicked out of fancy restaraunts, and it wasn't rich enough to get him jumped in the ghettos. Perfect.

As he got within touching distance of the bar/restaraunt...he noted...that it wasn't open. Great. Perfect. How would he get the stupid package? With a grunt, he entered quietly. Knowing the deliverer, he would only be here for the booze, and so he had to wait until the entire thing opened...or, he could get lucky, and the man could come early. He sat at a table near the back, hiding his face behind the menu.</div>"

<div class=""bb-center"">After taking Jim his order Autumn glanced around. The restaurant had filled up in a short amount of time. It seemed like all of the followers from a church right across the street wanted breakfast at the exact same time. Not only that but a family of six showed up not a minute later. Autumn and Sal were doing the best they could but Jack had to step in as well and start taking orders. Autumn was moving non-stop, taking orders left and right. What had been a quiet morning was now a hectic morning. Autumn hoped the rest of the day wasn't going to be like this or she would be dead on her feet by the time her shift was over. After arguing with a woman over the price of a coffee, which the woman wanted at a discount they had had it at last week but they didn't this week, Autumn finally had a breather. She stopped by the kitchen for a quick glass of water that she down before heading back out there.

She scanned the floor, seeing Jack dealing with a few church-goers and poor Sal was over by the family of six. Autumn headed over, spotting a lone man sitting at a table on her way. Figuring she could quickly snag his order before going to help Sal, Autumn headed over. <font color=""violet"">""Good Morning sir, what can I get you?""</font></div></div>"

Zade Magnus was at his desk drinking coffee in the news center. The news center was a large skyscraper in the middle of the city square. It typically showed colorful advertisements to the people walking or driving by the city center, which was the hub of many activities. Now that the cities preferred not to wage war, things have gotten quiet. But possibly too quiet. Zade started to feel anxious about his job and what the future might hold for him.

His printer started to print wirelessly from someone else's office. Zade got a text from someone just then. He realized it was his boss.

""hey z, heres your story for tonight. they got those new rabbit things coming out on the market and they paid us well to have it featured. your on in 30""

Zade sighed and thought to himself. If this guy wasn't his boss, he would have tought him a thing or two about capitalization and the difference between you're and your. Zade hated technology and felt like it was dumbing down society. He put down his coffee and picked up his papers to skim over it. Then he headed down to the recording studio nervously fixing his tie. Just because he's been speaking on TV for years didn't mean he was any more comfortable with it. The thought of speaking to millions of people was harder than actually doing it. He just needed that red recording light on before he could be that confident reporter.</div>"

There was something off about the drawing, probably the perspective. If there was one thing Arran hated about having only one working eye; it was that she lost all depth perception. Sighing, Arran packed up her pencils into a metal tin and slipped them into her bag. She knew if she continued trying to draw the cityscape she would get so frustrated that is wasn’t worth it. Flicking back through her sketchbook revealed page after page of good, but not quite right drawings; landscapes, houses, animals, people, vehicles, food, still life, and clockwork, lots and lots of clockwork. Almost every spare corner, gap, nook and cranny was crammed with sketches of clockwork. Closing the book with a snap, Arran dropped it into her bag. Lying back on the wall she stared up at the sky, a sky so wonderfully blue. There was, of course, the skyscrapers towering up in the distance, but here, near the edge of the city, the sky was unobstructed, beautiful. Closing her eyes and lying back on the wall, Arran dozed off, tired after getting up early that morning, due to the dog needing out. Admittedly it hadn't been <span class=""bb-i"">that</span> early, but for Arran anything before ten was considered early.</div>"

Jason rose an eyebrow, his hood thankfully hiding any rude facial expressions he could make. ""Yeah,"" He began, glancing back down at the menu, which he had placed flat on the table. Getting something would hopefully hide any suspicion while he waited for the delivery. ""Just a water."" It wasn't that much money. With a shrug, he took out a few bucks and laid it on the table, while leaning back and giving the female a half-lidded smirk. Water wouldn't make him sleepy, sluggish, or anything - especially if he had to get in a fight, which happened quite a lot in these jobs. His hands fingered the hilt of his scarred switch-blade, located deep in the pocket of his leather jacket.</div>"

Sitting up she glared round trying to find the source of the noise. Finally after realizing there was no one else around to whom it could belong, she fished her old ‘small brick’ phone out of its plastic ziplock bag in the outer pocket of her satchel. <span class=""bb-i"">Damn</span> Arran thought, <span class=""bb-i"">I obviously didn’t soak it long enough.</span> She considered dropping it to the pavement below and watching it shatter, but that would be a waste of money when her parents brought her a new phone. Stabbing the green button, she lifted the phone to her ear. “Hello?” <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#82ca9d"">“Ah Arran so glad you picked up, Can you come and meet me in town?”</font></span> said a tinny male voice from the other end of the phone. Arran blinked, <font color=""#ff0000"">“Ummm…… No?”</font> <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#82ca9d"">“Really Arran, its about your eye.”</font></span> the voice, which Arran realized belonged to her uncle, tried to convince her. <span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#82ca9d"">“I have been talking to someone and they think they can do something about it.”</font></span> Snarling silently Arran replied trying her hardest to keep her tone neutral, <font color=""#ff0000"">“Sorry uncle, I’m busy today.”</font> She thumbed the red button to shut off the call, jumping down from the wall as she did so. Arran hated people trying to mess with her eye, it was fine as it was, why couldn’t people see that? But all most people could see was the eye patch.  She walked over to where a big dog was lying, he looked up when she approached and cocked his ‘eyebrows’ at her inquisitively. <font color=""#ff0000"">“Its fine, its fine.”</font> Arran told him, ruffling the fur behind his ears. <font color=""#ff0000"">“Shall we go finish this walk?”</font> untying the lead from round her waist, Arran waited till the dog, Rig, had pulled himself up before clipping it to his collar, pulling her headphones on, and heading off down the street.</div>"

Ithen had walked down the street for a while, but now was smoking at a bus stop and looking through the magazine that was thrown at him. It was mostly a book about famous pop stars and other celebrity updates. The one thing that Ithen was interested in was a cover story on Ebony. Even if he did want to read the story about Ebony, someone put gum between the two pages that featured her, and someone else, or the same person ripped out the others. His manager thought that he did it because of how he kept openingly stating how much he didn't like her, as he did with other celebrities, but it was only because his pride wouldn't admit otherwise. He chuckled at the thought of how the magazine was unfit to sell because it was ruined. ""He's right,"" He tossed the magazine into the trash next to him. ""It's useless now."" Sitting down, he spotted something of interest down the road. A big dog. Ithen loved dogs. He started walking down the street to approach Arran.</div>"

Sometimes it felt like he wanted to sniff every single blade of grass. Counting to five in German, just for the sake of it, Arran tugged Rig away, leaning her whole body backwards so as to have enough force. Rig was a big dog; his head came up to just below her waist, and his broad chest gave him a lot of power, even though he was getting old and fat, that didn’t stop him being strong. In all probability, Arran would never have been able to control him had he not had the friendly temperament that he had. It was a bit of a joke to the family; he was a big enough dog to scare intruders off, but he was actually more likely to ask for a tummy scratch than to actually try frightening anyone. Lost in her thoughts, and her music, Arran let Rig lead the way, before he stopped again to sniff something else, glancing at him, Arran suddenly realized the thing Rig was sniffing wasn’t a letterbox, bush, street corner, or even a power pole, it was in fact, somebody’s shoe. “Oh sorry,” Arran gently yanked Rig’s lead to let the poor person past. Glancing up she saw a boy with blue hair, a fascinating colour, like the evening sky before the sun set.</div>"

Ithen wasn't good at making friends, but was the kind of person who would be loud and obnoxious trying. Of course, usually he didn't try too hard, but in this case there was a dog. He loved dogs. He always thought of getting his own but could never hold a job long enough to do it. So he always tried to introduce himself to dog owners as if it was his job to do so.

As he approached the red and black haired character he smiled a huge smile, trying hard not to be awkward and put his hand behind his neck. ""What a pretty dog."" He paused, ""C-can I pet it?"" He look away trying to show that he was expecting a 'no' for an answer. He didn't want to be rude and do it suddenly. Some dogs were aggressive after-all.</div>"

Autumn would admit, a lone man wearing a hood inside was suspicious but he didn't seem to be causing any trouble as it was so she would leave him be though she was going to be sure to keep an eye on him. She nodded as she jotted down his order and was quick to bring him a water. <font color=""violet"">""Just let me know if you want anything else.""</font> She gave him a smile before going over and helping Sal take orders. Thankfully, they all knew what they wanted and so the orders were whisked off to the kitchen in no time. Sal shot her a grateful smile as he grabbed a tray and worked on taking the family their drinks. 

She told him to come get her to help take their food to them before walking over and asking an elderly man what he wanted. She was then forced to stand there with a smile fixed on her face as he went off on a long rant about how ""these young whippersnappers don't know know no respect these days"" all because she didn't automatically know what he wanted to drink. He claimed to come in everyday but Autumn knew for a fact that she has only seen him twice before and Sal or one of the others would wait on him. 

After finally getting his order out of him, Autumn sighed as the order was sent to the kitchen. She paused to take a breather and drink a glass of water. As she did her eyes trayed back over to the single man sitting at the table. She wondered why he kept his face covered. Was he on the run from something?</div>"

Marius slammed the door to his cramped, unpleasant abode, the description of which was more akin to a cell than a studio apartment, at least according to Marius. Keys in one hand, lunchbox in the other, the disgruntled man turned around and slid the key into the hole, locking the deadbolt swiftly. With another turn, his brisk, confident stride led him out of the borderline-slum apartment complex and out onto the sidewalk.

This was the regular workday of Marius Caustellus. A hot shower, a hot breakfast and a cold-blooded reminder to follow the guidelines of regular society, as well as a lunch large enough to tide him over until dinnertime. His simple, off-white T-shirt and stained jeans only framed him completely as a laborer when a pair of damaged brown boots were included with his outfit. It was a fairly short walk to the industrial area of Trip City from his apartment, which explained why the area was in such disrepair. Plummeting property value. The only people who lived in this area were people that had to. It was a neighborhood where police presence was a distant thought, and shady dealings took place day and night. Marius was bright enough to arm himself, but not with anything as expensive as a gun. He felt at ease as long as he knew he had the upper hand. A couple hidden combat knives and a collapsible metal baton with a built in taser were his idea of an upper hand.

The baton was his favorite. He had designed and built it himself, but had failed to retain enough cash to apply for a patent, so until then, he decided to test it on any would-be thieves. The entire length of the baton, handle aside, was designed to deliver a near-lethal dose of electricity. This meant any attempt to grab the shaft resulted in what Marius called “entertainment”; primarily, stiffening of the mugger's body and a pain-induced shriek. A simple poke from the tip could deliver the same effect. Turning on the electricity was as simple as a pull of the trigger.

Confidently striding along the empty sidewalk, Marius noticed a figure trudging into view. The closer he came, the stronger his familiarity with the figure. This was a strange occurrence though; Marius barely knew the people he worked with, and he doubted he could pick any one of them out of a line-up 50 feet away.

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">“Shorty. Female. Brown hair.”</font></span> Marius' inner monologue profiled the girl as he drew close to her. <span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">“Those eyes are so familiar.”</font></span>
The lunchbox toting man stared carelessly at the girl even as he passed her.
<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#a187be"">“Ah! It's-”</font></span>

Marius stopped and turned to the girl. <font color=""#a187be"">“Miss Ebony Wildes.”</font> His voice was fairly serious, yet nothing too stiff. <font color=""#a187be"">“This isn't really a safe place for such a young girl, you know.”</font></div>"

It was a rather large man, beefy with a beer belly, and he had on what appeared to be an ill-fitting suit that had grease and whatever-the-fuck stains on the front. The man had what appeared to be a bulky suitcase in his fat hands, and his pig-like eyes wandered over every single face in the bar, before finally resting on Jason's table. ""Time to get this show on the road..."" He grumbled, barely audible as the man seemed to perk up and walk fast towards his table. His grip on his switchblade got too tight, causing his knuckles to pale and pop as the man got closer. This man...this man was very, very well-known in the underground for hosting fighting rings and dog pits, along with a rather well-known drug-smuggling ring that went throughout the sewer system of Trip City. He couldn't mess this deal and delivery up; it could seriously mean his livelihood...and Whatever is In The Sky knows that he spent too much sweat, tears, and literal blood on staying alive.

""Jasoooon!"" The man yelled out in an obnoxiously accented voice as he stood with his arms wide open; <span class=""bb-i"">Like a dick</span>, Jason noted, peeling his lip back in barely concealed disgust. Standing, Jason gave the man a stiff hand-shake, dully noting that his hands felt like sand-paper and sweat mixed together. Not a very good feeling. ""Sit, sit, let's talk business."" The large man sat, the chair creaking ominously, and Jason dully followed suit. Without hesitation, Mr. Vicorelli smiled a gap-toothed smile, lugging his suitcase onto the table and spilling water onto the floor. Jason absent-mindedly fixed the glass upright, his eyes narrowed as the suitcase was opened - revealing five small, tennisball-sized pods. Containing what? He didn't want to know.

""Tell me, what is this?"" The man's smile was fixed.

""Contraband that needs to be delivered."" Jason said flatly, scooping up the orbs and pocketing them. ""Where to?"" The man, surprised by the abruptness, only chuckled jovially and closed his eyes. ""Past Rat's Nest; place it in the trashcan fifty feet from the gray-roofed orphanage, and knock twice on the lid before leaving."" Eidetic memory automatically memorizing the place, Jason mentally grunted as he stood. ""It'll be done. Where's the pay?"" 

""You'll get it."" 

<span class=""bb-i"">Fucking-</span> He cut himself off. He couldn't be impatient; they would pay him, or he would rip their throats out. Or they would beat his ass. Whichever happens first. Scowling, he headed towards the door, ignoring the sound of laughter from the fat man behind him.</div>"

Thanatos gritted her teeth in annoyance as her fingers ghosted over the keyboard, her other hand on her mouse. Her team was stupid. She could handle this by herself; she had close to no idea why she chose to play with a team. Other people only held her down. 

She was about to singlehandedly complete the mission when the screen blacked out. She considered screaming in frustration, but found it to be too bothersome. Her nosy neighbor may come over, too, and explaining and warding him off would take even more energy. So she decided against it. Standing up, her rather long, uncared for nails raked the back of her computer. The charger was plugged in. Her eye twitched and she clucked her tongue, before picking up and unplugging the computer, dumping it in the extra room that she had. Her other, well-worn electronics rested in the otherwise bare room.

Tying her hair up into a bun, she walked into her room and grabbed the nearest article of clothing to pull over her head. A maxi dress. She paired sneakers with the dress, grabbed her bag and headed out.

She didn't bother to find out why her computer blacked out; usually, the ones she chose were of a higher grade, which could last her at least four years. The computer had served her well for the past three. She pulled out and lit a cigarette, her phone in a hand. As she passed by, she attracted several looks, due to her hair; usually, most girls her age who dyed their hair bothered to cover her roots. Not her; she didn't bother. Once again - too much energy, too much effort.

She kept her eyes on her phone; she didn't want to make any eye contact with anyone. She was shoved into the wall, though, by a group of rowdy prepubescent teenage boys. Now ticked off, she gripped her bag tightly and swung it, the bag colliding with the boy who had shoved her's head. She glared at the rest and walked off, missing the couple of fingers flipped at her.

Pocketing her tip she got into her usual sprinter's launch position and revved her wheels before taking off down the sidewalk avoiding pedestrians while keeping her calm. When she reached an alleyway she ducked into it following the path all the way to the end where it let her out a block away from the restaurant and sped down the road towards it stopping right outside the backdoor.

  ""I'm back!"" she called out so that her co-workers could hear her before sitting down on a stool next to the phone and deactivating her skates while she was indoors. After she finished she put them in her locker and changed into her sneakers, then walked out to check in and put the money in the register. When she walked out she saw Autumn and walked up to her, ""hey Autumn, I'm back but have you seen where Jack is because I need to check in with him"" she said as she stored her delivery bag on the wall and started fidgeting ""He told me if I was late again he would dock my pay, and I can't have that happen.""</div>"

<div class=""bb-center"">""Hello Trip City! Zade Magnus, here bringing you the lastest news today in Trip City. Today marked the release of the new personal home unit. It's a small simply designed animal named the Zumi created by the company Ethilin. It reads e-mails, plays music. It can respond to basic conversations and also has GPS. More aps are available through 3rd parties. They're soft unlike cellphones and are slightly animated, despite being immobile. For example, they can't stand back up when fallen over. It comes in different colors, animals, and is widely available at your local GaME [Game and Media Entertainment] shops.""

""Also, keep an eye out for motorized rollar blades and skateboards coming to the city soon. While many sport fans will try to keep traditional sports alive, more people are welcoming the future of easier mobility.""</div>

After other news reports Zade switched out with another host. Besides, the news usually looped this information along with others, as well as ads to keep the stations going.

Zade went to the break room and got a glass of water. It was just him and one other person in the room. Zade walked up the coworker to start some small chat, ""This place used to be a lot more lively around this time. What happened to everyone?"" His coworker was playing a game on his cellphone and didn't realize Zade was talking to him. His coworker paused his game, ""Oh, were you talking to me?"" 

Zade sighed. ""Not you too... Come on. I haven't talked to anyone here for a couple of days now, let alone seen my boss in a week. He used to stop by all the time to drop in a script. Now he just texts me and sends it wirelessly through a scanner."" His coworker responded, ""Um, attention hungry much? Two days ago isn't that long. Besides, I like my boss texting me. It's more laid back that way and I can curse at him without him hearing."" They both went silent as they saw their boss walk past the break door.

They realized he probably didn't hear them. Zade crossed his arms as his coworker went back to playing his game. ""I just miss human interaction, alright?"" Zade muttered under hus breath after realizing the man wasn't listening, ""What's the point. It's not like I ever found out your name since you started anyways."" Zade left to go back to his office. He was thinking of probably buying the Zumi just so he could have something to talk to.</div>"

Ebony was walking lost in thoughts. The fact she was in a bad part of the neighborhood still hadn't fazed her. She kept mulling over her songs and other thoughts on her job choice. The brunette was only pulled out of her thoughts at the sound of her name. She turned around and focused her attention on the man in front of her. He appeared to only be a few years older than her and also was telling her of the dangers of where she currently was.

Ebony sighed before opening her mouth to speak, ""<font color=""#99ffff"">Thank you for your concern, but I will be fine. I am not that young and the chances of anything happening are slim. But since you know of who I am, I'd like a proper introduction before we part ways again. It is not often that anyone shows much interest in my well being over the fact I am a famous singer. So, with that being said, my name is Ebony Wildes. It is a pleasure to meet you.</font>"" Ebony said giving her infamous smile and holding her hand out for a handshake.</div>"

With an eyebrow quirked in interest, Marius took Ebony's hand and gave it one, firm shake. He felt it was unclear whether or not he was being brushed off or if her smile was genuine, however, he gave an effort to make the best of a rare occurrence.<span class=""bb-i"">Who gets to just meet a famous musician on the street without being surrounded by flash photography and persistent, overbearing reporters?</span>
<font color=""#a187be"">“The pleasure is mine, Miss Wildes. I'm Marius Caustellus.”</font> Marius said with a smirk while releasing Ebony's hand. <font color=""#a187be"">“I'm also on my way to work, so I won't dawdle on warning you about the dangers of muggers and potential rapists. I will warn you that the I'm a native of these parts, and the next time I catch you wandering around here, I'm going to have to force you to sign just about every object I possess.”</font>

Marius couldn't keep a straight face throughout the entire joke, and ended it with a chuckle before turning on the heel of his boot and hurrying off, undoubtedly late for work. This event had actually improved his mood, like an unexpected gift or finding a wad of 20s. It would also serve as an excuse for his unusual tardiness.

<font color=""#a187be"">“Remember!”</font> Marius shouted over his shoulder, attempting to add more drama to his joke. <font color=""#a187be"">“The danger is real! Everything will be signed!”</font></div>"

She had endured the overly touchy salesman, had endured walking to six different shops in order to find the model she needed to replace her computer, had endured the sweltering heat. She was picky with this, as she had faced problems in the past with the other models she’d used. She was the most comfortable with the one she preferred, and refused to settle for anything less. Yet, the greasy-haired salesman in front of her had said that the stock for the model she was looking for had sold out a day ago.

Balling her hands into fists, she forced a smile, and turned herself on her heel, ignoring the salesman calling for her and offering other models, hurried and anxious, before he gave up, retreating back behind the counter. She couldn’t believe her luck, or rather, her lack of. She stepped out of the shop, heading into the alley nearby. Her anger quickly dissipated into apathy and indifference, as most of her emotions did. Sighing, she shook her blonde locks from her eyes, heading into a nearby café. She sat down by the window, her slender fingers tapping against the wooden table. 

She slid on her glasses, tying her hair up into a bun. If nobody bothered to look closely, she'd seem a few years younger than her actual age.</div>"

Lunch hour was usually chaotic but Autumn didn’t think she had ever seen it this crazy. Did the whole city deicide to come to The Silver Dragon for lunch? It sure looked that way. 

<font color=""violet"">”Here you are sir.”</font> Autumn said as she set a hamburger and a glass of coke in front of a man dressed in a suit with a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The man took one look at the food in front of him then glared at Autumn. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”What kind of fool do you take me for? I didn’t order this garbage! I asked for a water and a salad, are you <span class=""bb-i"">trying</span> to make me fat?!”</font> Autumn blinked in surprise because she distinctly remembered this man ordering no such thing. Autumn then apologized and said she would take it back. Clearly it was not what the man wanted and so he then began to rant at her. The girl’s facial expression fell into a neutral visage, turning into an emotionless mask as the man continued to explain in great detail how Autumn was such a stupid and incompetent child. The man didn’t seem to like the fact that he wasn’t getting a raise out of her and so he stood, face very red. He then snatched up his glass of coke and upended it over Autumn’s head. 

Her mask slipped, revealing a stunned expression as the man shoved past her and stalked towards the door. Autumn stood there, soda plastering her hair to her head and dripping down her face. She slowly turned, aquamarine eyes tracking the man as he headed for the door. Rage, swift and hot, surged through her body and his fists clenched. She then jumped slightly upon feeling a hand on her shoulder. She glanced up into Sarah’s sympathetic eyes. 

<font color=""lightblue"">”You okay? That was rough. I have a spare uniform in my locker if you want to borrow it. You can just give it back to me tomorrow.”</font>

Autumn nodded in agreement and followed along as Sarah led her to the back. Sarah lent her a pack of wipes and so with that and the uniform in hand Autumn locked herself in the bathroom to get cleaned up. Thankfully the coke missed her pants but her shirt was absolutely sopped. She threw it off and it hit the linoleum with a wet slap. She turned on the facet and ducked her head under it, running her fingers through it. She pumped some hand soap into her hand and lathered it through her hair. She knew it wouldn’t work as well as shampoo but hopefully it would help rid her hair of the stickiness the soda caused.

After rinsing her hair out thoroughly, she then got down to business of ridding her skin of the rest of the soda. After going through most of the wipes she finally was soda free. She shrugged on Sarah’s uniform shirt and fingered the ends of her hair. Drying it was out of the option unless she felt like trying to use paper towels. Deciding it could just air dry she squeezed as much water out of it that she could then shoved her soda soaked shirt into a plastic bag that was used for food deliveries, Autumn exited the bathroom and stowed the bag in her locker to take home later. She took a deep breath and entered the main room again. She shot Sarah a grateful smile, turning to survey the room. She heard a voice speak up from next to her and she turned to face Eris. She gave her a smile. <font color=""violet"">”Jack? He should be in his office doing paperwork.”</font></div>"

When he left she waved goodbye and turned around. Ebony continued walking until she got back to the normal area of the city. She pulled a beanie that matched her sweater out of her purse along with sunglasses and a scarf. She quickly used it to alter her look. The scarf up over her mouth and the large sunglasses obscuring her face for the most part. She blended in with the crowd, in a sense, as she made her way to a restaurant she enjoyed.

Ebony looked up at the sign and smiled under the scarf. It read. <span class=""bb-i"">'The Silver Dragon'</span>. Ebony walked to the door and pushed it open, she asked for a table and after a short wait was taken to a small table in the back corner. It was technically meant for two people but obviously she didn't have any friends to eat with. Ebony sat down not removing the beanie, scarf, or sunglasses despite the weird looks she was given. She looked down at her menu looking for something new she could order while also waiting on a waitress or waiter.</div>"

Marius was <span class=""bb-i"">very</span> late. Some of the molding machines had gone down, and Mister Du'wath had expected his ""lowly, starting-wage tinkerer"" long ago.

""Where the fuck have you been!?"" The old man screamed as Marius passed him, not even sparing the fat, bald business owner a sideways glance. ""You were supposed to be here five minutes ago! Now all the machines need fucking service because-""

""Shut up already. I'm on it."" Marius said casually as entered the uncomfortable oven-like conditions of the workshop.

The old company forklift passed by quickly, moving finished parts to the packaging area. Marius dodged around the forklift, circling toward the machines he had rigged to fail. Being the only person in the shop capable of rigging and fixing machines, Marius saw fit to add what he called ""job security"" to the ovens; small tweaks that would ensure machine failure if they were not serviced daily, and would destroy valuable parts if they went for long periods without the touch of Marius. The young engineer was already sure his employer was too much of a cheapskate to pay him a wage he deserved, so ensuring his continued employment was of utmost importance.

Two of Marius' co-workers committed themselves to busy-work, as their oven had stopped working. Marius only gave a smirk to one of his better-known comrades as he approached the panel containing the wiring for the machine. Du'wath followed, ready to inform Marius of his violently sudden lack of employment, yet he couldn't bring himself to fire someone so valuable. Marius fixed what others broke, which seemed to be a rare talent nowadays, given most peoples' lack of interest in anything but their phones and social media. Even some of the workers in the shop almost ruined parts just because they were paying more attention to their phones than their ovens.

Marius calmly uncrossed and reconnected wires gracefully and effectively, bringing the machine back to life, but leaving a flaw that would ensure his return. Meanwhile, Du'wath stood at a distance, silently fuming, which only served to instill an unwarranted amount of stress in his workers.

This was a regular workday for Marius. Rigging broken garbage to break later. It was just a means to ensure his continued existence, with no ensured corporate ladder-climbing in the future. He wanted out. He wanted more. Marius would change the world, given a chance, but for now, he watched and waited. His time would come. Maybe.</div>"
25463,Trip City,OOC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76562-trip-city,['Free'],2015-02-12 22:31:00,Fleeter,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">GENRE: Anime/Manga, Slice of Life, Sci-fi (later)

<div class=""bb-center"">This isn't a typical RP where players stay the same, over time the players are going to unlock powers and abilities in a sci-fi theme. These powers are based on the choices they make in Trip City. The city and players will alter over time based on their interactions with scenarios made by me.</div>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">INTRODUCTION</span></span>
In 'Trip City' the GM (Fleeter), may at will, generate scenario posts that players have the option to engage a response to. By doing so it affects the story of the world and how future scenarios will be generated. However some events may be important, others might be to distract you and do nothing. While there is no active scenario, players, including the GM, will roleplay as normal considering the current setting and limitations. In the beginning the world will be very normal anime/manga slice of life. Eventually players will be granted sci-fi themed powers through events and their responses and merely depends on the choices they made in the game.

Any character not made in the character sheet section has the possibility of being controlled by the GM. This will allow things to happen to family members, students, teachers, bosses, and so forth. The GM will state if their role is currently in used by a GM and when no longer in use, you can roleplay with them as normal. 



<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">WORLD INFORMATION</span></span>
For simplicity's sake there is only 1 city, <span class=""bb-b"">TRIP CITY</span> that players must stay in. You can leave the outskirts of the city and enter forested or otherwise realistic terrain, but that is as far as you're allowed to go. We can't have characters all the way in other countries-- it would get too complicated. Players can make up any part of the city as long as it is grounded in reality. For example a mall, arcade, colleges, parks, highways, etc., as long as it is set in modern day. There should be nothing unusual unless it is a GM scenario, or you gained a power/item. Trip City may alter in appearance and function as the RP continues becoming more futuristic if certain events pass.



<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">TIME</span></span>
Note that time time needs to pass for this to work. The GM will post a warning that the sun is at it's peak and setting. Meaning that it is still daylight, but night is drawing near. All active Players must start having their characters winding down for the night for the next day to start. The last call will be when the sun sets. If they don't wind down, the night watch will throw them into a shelter against their will for the next day to start. You know, just so we can move forward.



<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">ABOUT INACTIVITY</span></span>
If you don't post often enough, (which is determined situationally by the GM,) your character will be given up for the GM to use, kill, or be handed to another more active player. You must request to join again but approval has to go to the GM before you can enter again. If your character is still alive, you can request to use it again. If your character is dead, you need to make a new one-- IF you are allowed back in.

You can put your character into storage by making a post where it is clear that no one can interact with your player. (Examples: hiding, or leaving a conversation you are currently in, etc.) Add AWAY in caps at the bottom of your post. That character can be held in storage where they wont be killed off. You must add RETURN to the top of your new post when a character reappears. Do not overuse this feature or we will retract your character from the RP. Use it only for emergencies like finals, or a death of a loved one. If you are away for too long the GM may remove you from the RP, still, but we are more forgiving to inactive users who do this, because it doesn't disrupt everyone else's ability to continue. What a concept!

Inactivity is the greatest enemy to an RP. Let the GM's know if you can't move forward because the person you are RPing with isn't responding/active. We will work something out to move them out of the way.



<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">RULES IN A NUTSHELL</span></span>
-Absolutely NO OOC talk in the IC or CHARACTERS tab.
-Do NOT interact directly with characters that are currently AWAY see the 'characters' section to see who is active in the INACTIVITY NOTICES at the top of the page.
-Do NOT post if you have been removed due to inactivity. You must request and be accepted to rejoin.
-No single line posts.
-Don't dictate if someone gets hit or not. Let the other player decide that.
-I'll give you a warning if something is wrong, please heed that warning.
-Failure to follow rules or disregard GM's will result in being removed from the RP.
-If I like you, you can have more than one character.
-Be active in IC</div>"

For example, let's say your character is a student at a college, the teacher isn't a character made in the character section, along with the rest of the school staff and students. So the GM might RP as a student who sits behind you in class and whispers something in your ear, or the teacher might slip you a note, or a class president who tells you to stay after class because you're in trouble. Things like that.

But I wont control your student character.</div>"

Not always. Most of the time he would be controlled by you. But I will specify when it is currently controlled by me. For example, he might be end up sick with something because he touched something he shouldn't have. But it would only happen if he triggered something specifically plot related. I wont go out of my way to control anyone's supporting character unless they did something specific to the sort that would alter their state of being.</div>"

Hey, Diamond. While it doesn't say ""weapons master"" it does say very skilled at using weapons. By the way, it isn't your RP. It's mine. The final say is mine. It isn't about who you are in real life, it's about how you balance out with the other players. And your character does not fit in.

It's because of your behavior. You don't want to shorten your character description when I asked.

Like I said. It isn't about representing you in real life. It's about balancing the players that exist in the world already.

I said I refuse to get rid of the martial arts skills, I don't mind editing it, what would you have suggested I do?

And as I suspected, apparently martial arts skill is ""overpowered"" quite ridiculous in my opinion, and if it's a fictional universe where we get powers and all that, then even more so, how am I OP?

Of my choosing, but it depends on the actions you do in the world and how you respond to a scenario. So, you wont get hit by an out of place lightning strike and get a random power. Also when technology advances you can be sure to buy futuristic items and abilities that can grant power. Most likely, at a cost, but those vary of widely available to needing to be apart of a secret organization to obtain. But these are powers you can personally take or not.</div>"

Ahh… just though I'd mention, since I might have forgotten to in my CS, Arran does know how to throw a punch. She doesn't do and of that dramatic slapping, she will however avoid a fight if at all possible. Not saying shes any good at fighting, just that she can throw a punch.

Also if you need to know what Rig looks like as I couldn't seem to work it into my post, he is a Rottweiler cross Huntaway.

Varren Yinyues

Gender
Male

Age
16

Year

Birthday
December 12th

Astrological Sign
Sagittarius

Species
A complete and utter ordinary human, down to the very core.

Class
<span class=""bb-b"">Commando</span> - Taking his expertise with firearms into account, and his moderate anatomical capabilities, Varren found himself most effective by fashioning such a class.  Going by the book, a commando is an individual who shows cunning advancement in the field of ballistic weaponry, showing a knack for the practice at an early age, and excelling past those who would be considered veterans in the span of a few years.  A literal sense of <span class=""bb-i"">being the bullet.</span>  Fully intertwining themselves with their instruments, and wielding such contempt to unsurmountable extents on the battlefield.  Though only a few individuals full under such a title, Varren being one of them, they thrive in the midst of combat, but falter in social interactions.  Though most commandos tend to make themselves the focus of their enemies, Varren fancies hit-and-run attacks and tactics which involve stealth.  Varren has also dabbled in basic medicine, carrying a backpack full of first aid necessities.  However, he tends to only pack a small amount of resources, in precaution to impeding his movement.

Weapon
<div class=""hider-panel""><div class=""hider-heading""><button class=""btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button"" data-name=""Magpul Revised S&amp;T Daewoo K30 + Optics Goggles"" type=""button"">Magpul Revised S&amp;T Daewoo K30 + Optics Goggles [+]</button></div><div class=""hider-body"" style=""display: none""><img src=""http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g460/Rawrsorz_10/K11.jpg?t=1289796252""/>
*Gogles will be added when I get home*
After Magpul absorbed Daewoo’s copyrights after the Korean company went bankrupt, a majority of the weapon platforms were trashed or placed in storage, as they were considerably outdated.  Though, after being authorized access to the rifles the company manufactured, Varren managed to build a mountain out of a molehill.  Based off of the K11 DAW rifle, the boy updated and refined the integrated range-finding system, tweaking the air-burst reception time and minor adjustments to the RPM.  Chambered with the traditional 5.56x45mm NATO round, a cartridge which has been in advent use for more than a century.  The gun receives most of its credit due to the air-burst combat technique, loaded with six 20x30mm HE grenades, the K30 abides by the same protocol as its predecessor.  Firing in bursts of three, the first two grenades detonate on impact, meanwhile the last explodes a few meters away from its target, utilizing the air-burst technique which creates an area of effect of one and a half meters.  The K11 originally operated off of four firing modes, the last employing the same trigger to fire both built-in weapons.  Varren found this as an infantile hindrance, and critiqued the weapon to surpass such a disability.  Being a one-of-a-kind weapon he fashioned himself, it has became his primary and most effective choice in combat.  Outfitted with a suppressor, and a pair of goggles with a built-in display of the rifle’s thermal optics.</div></div>

Chambered with a lethal .308 round, molded into a compact and easy to maneuver frame, the Magpul M93B is a fighter’s best friend.  On par with most battle rifles, the firearm makes up for its lack of range, with an easy to control rate of fire.  Though Varren would normally be rendered unable to fire such a caliber, the bullets are developed for silenced use, giving the user less recoil to deal with.  Along with the assistance of a foregrip, the rifle is handled with expertise.  This weapon is used less than his primary choice of armament.</div></div>

Providing a high rate of fire and chambered with an anti-materiel round, all jampacked into a small, compact product.  The white wolf is a prime grade machine pistol, a perfect choice as a fallback weapon, or can be employed to buy the user some time.  Able to be held with one hand and takes up barely any space, the wolf also provides an integrated rail-system; which is usually accompanied by an accurate holosight.  Varren tends to keep this on his person at all times, but can only carry it around unchambered during school.  It mainly serves as a memento, a gift from his family.</div></div>

Short Biography
Born to the Yinyues family, a family which inherited the American manufacturing company known as Magpul.  How the Yinyues managed to acquire the rights to Magpul, and all of the products under its copyright, is a story for another time.  Since the present of a firearm was always present within the Yinyues’ house, Varren was bound to pick up on his family’s hobby.  If anything, the idea of teaching a toddler how to utilize a firearm wasn’t even frowned upon.  His parents believed it was a plausible idea, to enlighten the boy with prior knowledge of what he would inherit.  It wasn’t long until they discovered he had a natural knack for the usage of weapons, soon fashioning and making his own adjustments to existing platforms.  But such a practice became more than a pastime.  It began to suck up a majority of the hours he was awake; and if he wasn’t engineering or practicing, he was most likely studying to secure his inheritance.  This left no time open for social interaction, which lead up to his entitlement of the class <span class=""bb-i"">Commando</span>.

Personality
Varren is a fountain of self-expression, constantly flowing with emotion and passion.  Considered to be an open book of his inner feelings, he conveys himself to those around him with any regrets or remorse.  Though, stating his own opinions isn’t a problem; its making connections with the receivers of said opinions is his predicament.  Unable to find the words to properly come across people as his true self, people are left to perceive him at their own digression.  At times, he attempts to strike a conversation with others, but brushes them off as odd, annoying and a nuisance.  Given his childish nature, compared with his age, he catches people off guard and unknowingly forces them out of their comfort zone.(Might add some more once I get home)

Partner

Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)
<span class=""bb-b"">Anatomical Defficiency:</span> Not as strong as most would presume, Varren is generally a twig of a human being, who can somehow muster the strength to wield weapons of mediate caliber.  Though anything chambered in battle or sniper rifles is a no-go, and can easily throw out his frail shoulder.
<span class=""bb-b"">Hot Chocolate:</span>  Can’t stomach the stuff.  Found out he had such a weak spot for the beverage when his mother attempted to substitute it for his addiction with coffee.  The results were not pleasing, to himself nor the toilet he clutched for the majority of the night.


Skills Attributes/Abilities/Traits 
<span class=""bb-b"">Persona Fluctuations:</span> Medically diagnosed <span class=""bb-i"">’dissociative identity disorder’</span>, Varren can completely change his personality at random intervals.  Such occurrences are uncontrollable, and when documented, never show any relations or possible signs of a trigger.  Though, the only persona which comes out of the fluctuation is completely different from the ordinary Varren.  It is basically a polar opposite of the kind mannered boy, retaining an emotionless composure, leaving no openings for second thought or remorse.  The counterpart is only in control for the span of a few moments, and once the proper Varren regains his senses, he has no recollection of the past events.

<span class=""bb-b"">Optimistic Supremacist:</span> If a monsoon was to rain on his parade, Varren would single-handedly build a roof to protect the procession.  With a skip always in his step and a smile stretched across his face, the boy always looks at the glass completely full.  Of coffee.

Ok, Here's the best image I could find. I somehow found something. Problem is it doesn't have wings and the armor looks stupid, as well as the angle being pretty bad for a character picture. So I guess I will still do a desc. along with this.
Ark stands at about 6 feet tall, which is relatively average size for a draconian. His scales are a pristine white, with an *insert wingspan here*. He usually wears some sort of a cloak and light armor (probably some form of the armor in the picture, minus the weapons, things on his arms, and thing on his neck). His eye color is a dull grey, which is actually quite common in light draconians. At his side is a quiver for his arrows, which also holds some of his daggers dipped in a poison and dragon blood concoction.</div>
<div class=""bb-center"">Full Name 
Arkiyel 'ein

Nickname(s)
Ark, as his real name is a bit difficult to say sometimes.

Gender
Male

Age
178. This could be equated to about 17-18 in human years.

Year 
4th

Birthday
August 1st. Though, it's less of his actual birthday, and more of the day he was passed through the Dyniel 'Yn degrys (ceremony of the sun) as an egg (the ceremony is essentially how light draconians are born, and why they have a sub-tribe)

Astrological Sign
Leo

Species
Light Draconian. Draconians are half human and half dragon. There are 8 types of Draconian, each of these draconian tribes have scales with a color that correspond to a magical element, which they can control. The most common Draconian tribes are Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Lightning. On August 1st, the Draconians hold a ceremony as ancient as the Draconians themselves. During this ceremony, Draconian eggs are offered up to become that of pure light. Though, very few actually become light draconian eggs. The Draconians tend to retain their original elemental powers from their tribe.

Class
Slayer (mostly for Demons): A slayer is trained in the arts of close combat and swift take-downs of targets , which in this case is usually demons. The most popular slayer weapon is the dagger, which can be swiftly dipped in poisons, as well as be easy to conceal. Most Slayers are also trained to use a bow, as arrows can also be easily dipped in poisons, and are rather easy to carry. Though Slayers use dirty tactics and swift maneuvers to take down their targets, they are usually very humble, and based on their homeland, may have some sort of chivalrous code. Ark follows the Draconic Slayer code, which prevents him from killing non-threatening individuals, supports the protection of the undefended, and holds courtesy and charity highly. Though, Targets are the only exception to this codes. Usually, targets are issued by a Slayer Guild, though, some work for themselves. Ark is one of these loners. A Draconian, Like Ark, usually combines close combat fighting with short range magic to add more impact to attacks.</div>

The enchantment on the bow prevents it from breaking easily, as well as preventing the string from wearing out or breaking. The bow is masterfully crafted, which adds to the fact that it looks cool. The Arrows that Ark uses are tipped in a combination of paralyzing poison, and enchanted dragon's blood (this is harmful to most types of Demons on Lucis)</div></div>

<div class=""bb-center"">Biography
Ark was an orphan. His parents died before he was born, even before the ceremony. He was originally from the fire tribe, but he was born as a light draconian. An old friend of his parents had asked if she could raise him, but, due to the fact that he was a light draconian, and not fire, the church would not let her touch him. (around this time the Draconians are extremely religious) Due to his unlucky early life, he grew up mostly on the streets, as most priests or oracles couldn't stand him. At some point he ended up training with an old slayer, who taught Ark everything he knows. His reason for going to the academy is unknown.</div>
<div class=""bb-center"">Personality
Ark is the kind of serious character that just wants to get things done and over with. He isn't a pushover, and hates to be bossed around, though, he will try to control his temper and follow the slayer code.

<div class=""bb-center"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)
Ark has a fear of Ice, and is actually weakened by it. He doesn't like water that much, though, he kinda had to get over that. Ark hates darkness, and never sleeps in the dark because of it. He despises dark magic, evil, and especially vampires. 

Skills/Abilities/Traits 
Ark is able to enchant his weapons with fire/light magic, as well as use short range fire and light attacks. These could be anything from a small ember, to temporarily blinding someone who was right up in his face.

More or less, the commander focuses on boosting the moral of his party, keeping them on task, and supporting with fire when needed. They tend to have huge egos, though.

Biography
 
Maxwell was born to the Yinyues family, a family which inherited the American manufacturing company known as Magpul. How the Yinyues managed to acquire the rights to Magpul, and all of the products under its copyright, is a story for another time. The Yinyues family always had a strange fascination for guns, for some god damn reason, and teaching a young kid to use one was perfectly fine. So, of course, his parent's forced on him that which they wanted him to inherit. Maxwell wasn't good with your everyday gun. He couldn't deal with the recoil, and the use of the gun didn't flow with his movement (yes, even a 10 year old wants to be able to move fast and fluidly when firing guns). So, Maxwell was overjoyed when his parents added another weapons manufacturer into the Magpul family. This manufacturer specialized in plasma and laser based weaponry.  Oh yea, you may know that Maxwell has a brother named Varren. You may also know that Varren is good with guns. Well, there was a day when Varren decided to wave a gun in front of Maxwell, but, in a tragic turn of events, Varren had forgotten to check the safety. As a result, Maxwell lost his right arm, though it was soon replaced with a mechanical one.

Maxwell spent the next series of years learning the ins and outs of the Magpul[Redeye] weapons he was given. Given his competitive nature, Maxwell tested himself everyday, just because he wanted to be better than Varren.
Maxwell later received a letter from the Academy of the Arcane Artes. Of course, he accepted the invitation to join the school, and became pretty well known for his tactical ability, as well as his attitude and ego. During his 3rd year he was grouped with the 1st years during their first mission. Well, let's just say he led the shit out of those first years, and plans to do the same with this year's first year class.

Maxwell moved out of the Yinyues household when he was 18, and moved to Japan,where he had moved in with his girlfriend Maria, and her twin ""sister"".
  
Personality

Maxwell is rather intelligent, as well as a smart ass. He has an ego as large as a barn,which can be inflated or destroyed way too easily. He is naturally competitive, and hates to lose. He can be rather emotionally unstable at times, as he gets angry pretty easily, as well as getting depressed at the press of a button. Even though he has so many of these flaws, he can be a genuinely caring person, when he isn't being an asshole. He is also pretty damn charismatic.
  
Partner
 
[to be decided]
  
Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)

Maxwell doesn't like Ballistic weaponry, and hates when they are aimed at him.
His ego can be burst like a bubble. Anything from telling him he is wrong, to beating his ass will cause him to spiral into random depression.
Maxwell always wants to be in control, and panics when he isn't.
He hates being bossed around.

There is also the one thing that has drawn a deep like of separation between Max and Varren. Varren loves coffee, while Maxwell can't stand the stuff. Maxwell just prefers a good cup of tea.
  
Skills/Abilities/Traits
 
Max is a born leader, boosting moral of his team, as well as being able to think clearly in a shitty situation. Maxwell has a computer in his arm, allowing him to access everything from a monster database, to information about his teammates. Maxwell has been previously described as a tactical genius, this is probably from years of planning his revenge against Varren, which he never got.

Dragon: dragons of Earth are as rare as other magical species, but far stronger. They take it upon themselves to defend other beings from hunters and humans who would exploit them. Overtime, they have ""evolved"" to take human shape, allowing them to blend in with society as necessary. They're strong and durable creatures, and (on earth) only another dragon's fangs or claws can penetrate their scales. However, the magic on Lucis is far more advanced, so there might be some weaknesses found there. They tend to live to be ten times as old as humans, so the early hundreds tend to be considered young.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>
Dagny was one of five hatched to a family of dragons in Sweden and probably the slowest to mature in every sense of the word. Granted, she was also the most willing to learn and optimistic about the world. The mystic community was small and she was essentially home schooled, however, and this was frustrating for the curious little dragon who wanted to explore all corners of the world. Time went by and she remained mostly isolated from the big, big world of humans. Eventually, her thirst for knowledge faded away into apathy and she grew shy in her questions and interest in the world. 

Much of her personality and spunk was revived when she finally left Sweden to explore the world. Easy enough for a beast with wings sized to rival a plane. It was during this time that she really learned about the world--both the magic and technology driven--around her. She learned that creatures like her--creatures born of magic--were such a minority on Earth and they needed to be protected. Very few could contend with modern technology, but dragons like herself remained strong competitors against the evolution of human technology. Her run-ins with humans left a lot to be desired, however, and she found herself mistrusting their greed and power lust. 

Then, the Black Gale appeared. 

An incredible moment for both worlds, for sure, but Dagny and other dragons were hesitant to have anything to do with the phenomenon. But, time went on and the Black Gate proved dangerous not only for humans, but for other mystical creatures as well. And the second world, Lucis, proved to be swelling with magic, which spawned interest for the mystic beings of earth. Already identified as a guardian of sorts for the magical community, Dagny's personal interest grew in the Black Gate and the academies dedicated to maintaining it. 

Needless to say, when she received the letter four years ago, she decided to take the school up on its offer. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Dagny's motivated and ambitious, and doesn't really do anything half-assed. Like, if you're walking, she's POWER WALKING. If you're eating dinner, she's DEVOURING DINNER. While this can make her come of as intimidating or intense, she's generally in a good, loud mood. She used to get embarrassed and quiet down, but now she's rather confrontational when she gets odd looks or whispers--though she doesn't usually mean harm.

<span class=""bb-b"">Partner</span>
To be decided

<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
Dragons are far sighted so up close, they can't see as well. Because of her natural size and weight, Dagny is physically slower than most fighters. While it's nearly impossible to penetrate or bruise her skin, any damage to her mouth or eyes will hurt like a bitch. Magic can do harm to her, too. She's not as strong as a full fledged dragon either. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span>
Fire breathing, super strength, and super tanky. Her true form is compacted into her human body, making her ridiculously dense and massive despite her being average size for a person. This weight makes her extremely hard to knock of her feet. On that note, she can turn into a dragon (or rather she can turn into a human because her default form is a dragon) and change her features to match that of one (for example, growing her nails into dragon claws or scales over her skin).

<span class=""bb-b"">Other</span> 
She tends to speak English, but her Swedish accent gets thicker the more emotional or passionate she is. She's also gay, preferring women to men ten times out of ten. Joseph Conrad is a little bitch, pass it on.</div>

Name:Experiment 736  

Nicknames: 736, Rikhard  

Gender: Male  

Age: 6 (but with enough memories to function as an adult)  

Year: 1  

Birthday: November 1st  

Sign: Scorpio  

Species: Flesh Golem  

Class: <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Fleshwarper</span></span>: Uses alchemy and minor magics to create and alter organic matter. In effect, this makes him functionally a kind of combat engineer, but with grafts, viruses and homunculi instead of guns, bombs and turrets. In addition, he is capable of creating ichors to alter the biology of living things, (essentially mutagens), though his homunculi are the only things genetically unstable enough to use them. Unlike other, less specialized alchemists, he cannot concoct explosives or alter inorganic material. 

Weapon:  <span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-u"">Blitzengeist</span></span>: A biologically engineered symbiote of 736's own design. Capable of generating electric shocks and transforming into various weapons. Has it's own animalistic intellect.  

World: Lucis 

Biography: Created by an Alchemist dedicated to understanding the spark of life, Experiment 736 spent his ""childhood"" as the favored creation of his ""father"", as he demonstrated the intelligence that his kin lacked. Upon his father's death at the hands of one of his own spawn, 736 took up his mantle to continue his work.  

Personality: While blessed with true sentience, some would even say brilliance, 736 reminds most who meet him quite quickly that he is not human. If he has emotions, he certainly doesn't display them in any way and cannot detect them in others. Though he attempts to do what he believes is right, he has no inborn sense of morality. Due to this, he will often say things that others find disturbing, albeit politely and articulately. He often makes references to the past lives of his body parts in conversation (thus why few people end up talking to him.)  

Weaknesses: As far as can be told, 736 does not possess an actual soul. Given his rather massive frame, he is also quite clumsy. Having spent more-or-less his entire life in his father's laboratory, he has no real concept of friendship and many people find his appearance and behavior more than slightly disturbing. Though he doesn't show it, perhaps the strongest emotion he has ever felt is the fear that his existence will turn out to be inconsequential and that he has no place in either world.  

Partner: None yet  

Strange Attributes: Causes unprotected electronic devices to go haywire in his presence, due to a combination of Blitzengeist's electricity generating powers and leftover magical interference from his own creation. All things considered this is fairly inconsequential, as most devices would have to be fairly cheap or badly damaged to be affected.

Full Name: Sylus Moriam

  Nickname(s): Sy
  
Gender: Male 

 Age: 16 human years, 200 elven years

  Year: 2
  
Birthday: September 2nd

   Astrological Sign: Virgo

  Species: Elf 

 Class: Ranger

  Weapon: A bow and enchanted arrows that serve a myriad of purposes. These are as follows:
fire (erupts in flames on contact with something) 

lightning (Pulsing electricity, shocks living targets and is obviously also useful for damaging Earth technology) 

leech (drains magical energy from target at a steady rate, causing target to weaken and makes it much harder to cast spells. Only works if it pierces skin, can only by stopped by being physically removed, i.e pulled out) 

paralysis (target is paralyzed around arrow site until arrow is removed, as muscles around the area become useless as long as it's there. If shot in the leg, target will not be able to walk as well, if shot in arm target cannot swing weapons using that arm. again needs to pierce skin)  

 World: Lucis  

Short Biography: Sylus grew up quietly in a small elven settlement deep in the forests of Lucis. When the Black Gale appeared, Sylus's father, a well-known and accomplished adventurer, became a gatekeeper, only to vanish about 3 years ago. Sylus believes that becoming a gatekeeper himself would be the only way to find out what happened to him, so it was a no-brainer for him to accept entrance into the academy.  His mother warned against him going, as she didn't want to lose her son as well, but Sylus sees no other acceptable future for himself.
 
Personality: Sylus is rather shy around unfamiliar people, especially in large crowds. He slowly becomes more comfortable around people as he gets to know them, and once he has made a few friends he is quite friendly, optimistic and outgoing around them.He has a serious attitude when it comes to his studies, as he wants nothing more then to follow in his father's footsteps, and hopefully find him. He is also very fond of nature and spends as much time among plants and animals as he can, preferring to study, eat lunch and such around school grounds rather than indoors. 

  Partner: (TBA)

Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s): Sylus frequently has night terrors, and as such he sometimes avoids sleeping and has a habit of sneaking out of his dorm at night. He will often go out of his way to help people he cares about, often times endangering or exhausting himself in the process. Using his healing magic drains his mental strength and can be quite detrimental to his health. As archery is his only combat skill, if caught in close-quarters combat he will be at a disadvantage.  

Skills/Abilities/Traits: Moderately skilled Archer. Knows basic enchantment which he uses to create magical arrows for different purposes, also dabbles in alchemy and can create various poisons to coat arrows with. He is studying druidic magic, which is magic derived from life and nature, and used for the benefit of it. he can communicate with animals fluently as if they could speak, and has a natural gift for befriending them. He can sense energies within living beings if he concentrates, such as magic energy, and life force. This allows him to sense beings that would otherwise be hidden to him, and tell how much life force a being has (how close to death they are essentially). He has learned how to channel his life force into other beings in order to heal their wounds or cure their ailments, however doing so is, for obvious reasons, extremely physically demanding. The energy required to heal another is proportionate to the severity of the wound or ailment. The more energy he uses to heal others, the more he risks passing out, becoming ill or worse.  

 Other: He has formed a strong bond with a bird he named Feena, who lives in a tree on Academy grounds and that he visits every day. He can play the lute, and enjoys doing so as a hobby.</div>"

""I was born to a pair of genius parents who were studying the works of Black Gale. Neither of them had anything to do with the peace that was created between the worlds, they were simply curious about the anomaly and wished to study it. They had a fairly hands off policy when it came to raising me after I was capable of walking, speaking, and learning. It seems they wanted to study the Gale over taking care of me beyond feeding me and giving me a place to sleep. I quickly picked up a fascination with all sorts of machines. My parents were most surprised when the walked in on me when I was 10 and I was halfway through the construction of a working model airplane with a improved design over most passenger planes. Well, it worked and that's probably why I'm getting this letter. Then I went and made the previously mentioned bracer, mostly for convenience purposes.""

""I can't turn off my ability, so I have to wear headphones to filter the sound, since headphones can't pick up that special sound the same way I do it helps a lot.

Her eyes are upgraded to analyze and record any data she's seen, allowing her to pinpoint strategic weaknesses and probability patterns.

 Also displays an ally's vitals, ranging from health to the stress toll on their body.  

While she can read the streams of data constantly running across her retina, Mia's glasses serve as secondary platform when she wants to focus on a specific report, or to pull up a layout or map of the area.

<span class=""bb-b"">The eyes also give her a basic reading on a object's  weight, height, core temperature, and a frailty rating.

 When focusing in on a living being it adapts to give the same data, but processes the frailty rating against visual damaged sustained or taken allowing a probability of how much more can be taken before the object or person becomes critical or broken.</span>

Since it's integrated into her and is essentially what gives her her sight, she can't turn it off.

 Everything she looks at feeds her data so she tries to avoid anomalies and irregularities that would overload her system causing a reboot reverting her back to being blind until it comes back online.</span>

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Short Biography</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Mia was born blind, yet having been born to rich parents it was an easy fix. They had made their fortune off selling and trading new age items as well as products from Lucis to 3rd world countries; in return gaining access to ancient commodities that collectors would pay handsomely for. By the age of 5 Mia was undergoing treatments to restore sight, along with a few added upgrades, originally intended to help market and track values on the constant influx of trading goods.</span>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Mia is extremely shy, having only been around her parents and personal tutors, she's had little real experience with the world outside her parents shop beside the adventurer or two coming into sell their wares. She only comes across as calm and collected when reiterating data, advising,or giving out tips and crucial information.</span>

<span class=""bb-i"">TBA</span>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Mia is weak against strong personalities, having always listened to her father's instructions, and her mother's constant stream of critiques and request giving her little time to adapt against them.

 She's also not psychically strong when it comes to direct combat, often finding herself facing larger opponents she's learned to stick to the back lines and avoid a direct area around any combatants, having no desire to attempt to scramble out of the way or get hit by wayward and direct attacks.

 She fears that she might have made the wrong choice, replying to the letter and that maybe she would be better off back home in the shop, constantly questioning what she's doing.</span>
<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Strange Attributes/Abilities/Traits</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Spending her youth organizing and handling the shipping dockets, Mia became naturally accustomed to reorganizing the data she records to fit certain scenarios and make it easier to recall, though only having her eyes rebuilt means she has the same processing power of most merchants and shop owners having learned to quickly skim reports and pick out what's needed, trying to access information too quickly can cause her eyes to throb and induce headaches.

Her eyes have the ability to zoom in and out giving her a range of scope over areas, used to help find items in the warehouse or in the storefront. She's adapted it to focus on creatures movements, the tightening of a muscle before the energy is released, using that she couples it with data she's gather on different people's anatomy and psychic to gather a basic reading on an average persons capable limits but her data and assumption aren't always right so she continues to read on different anatomy and observes others to gain a more complete basis to work off of.

She uses the same concept when it comes to combat, observing what attacks do instant damage or if they're prolonged, also if they're negated by certain psychical or magical Traits of their opponent, making assumptions and possible tactics to bypass it or if she can use that data to narrow down what would effective. Also being able to hone in on an enemy gives her a chance to look over the anatomy, gathering reference data and observing for any places where a capable attack would do the most damage.

<span class=""bb-b"">Tl;Dr:</span> The more she observes the better her references and assumption will be, most of what she builds and plans are theories that are constantly changing until tested.</span>

<span class=""bb-i"">Voidlings (Human)</span>
The Voidlings come from many different races and share no similarities except for one: they have been unfortunate to catch the attention of those vastly their betters. The effects of even a small amount of Void power can mutate the affected into great monstrosities, leave them unchanged, or anything in between. The effects can be somewhat directed on the whims of the Voidkin, but are still unpredictable even then, As such the cases of the Voidlings are unique to the individual.

For Raule, the results were minor appearance changes. His ears elongated drastically while his hair was bleached a snow white. His nails naturally sharpened until it was more accurate to call them claws and his eyes are now red, and glow a soft crimson in the dark.
<span class=""bb-i"">Voidkin</span>
These paradoxical beings for the most part are still largely shrouded in mystery, if only because they so rarely bother to interact with the worlds. Even then most of their interactions seem to be limited to spreading their power at random, infusing individuals with mere drops of their energy. Aside from these mysterious incidents these beings seem content to remain where they reside. Their ability to reach into either world aside, little else is known about their abilities. Presumably they are capable of far greater feats than the Voidlings, but to what scale is undetermined.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Class</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Dark Brawler</span>
A deadly close quarter combatant that specializes in unarmed styles mixed with the natural energies, both Void and human, that flows through the user’s body. Capable of reinforcing their bodies to superhuman levels, they shrug off mighty blows while returning them in kind. Their Void energy results in powerful, but self-destructive bursts of power that allow them to erase enemies in their way before their bodies begin to erode from within.
<div class=""bb-indent"">At the height of his power so far, Raule can wrap himself in a shroud of Void energy for about 10 minutes. The energy would be dense enough at this point to render small arms fire essentially ineffective, and with it coating his fists he'd be able to destroy armored units with sustained assault. He's also capable of firing short-ranged blasts of Void energy that would leave no trace of an unprotected human. 

While in this state, his physical prowess is also pushed to the utmost limits. Even without the coating of Void energy his fists can pulverize stone, and he's tough enough that small arms fire would prove insufficient to put him down immediately. In terms of speed and agility, unless the wielder is superhuman themselves firearms are near useless in close quarters given he can move faster than a regular human would be able to keep up and aim against.</div>
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span></span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Klaenr a Tomi.</span>
Finding a material that was able to withstand the Void’s energy was not an easy a task. He was forced to venture far beyond the safety zones of the Black Gale. Finding a smith that could work it was even harder. It took a master blacksmith who had adopted the advanced technologies of Earth to melt and shape the material. 

His weapons are a pair of claw-tipped gauntlets, and sharpened greaves; the front is shaped into a sharp cutting edge and is a bit heavier than regular pieces as a result. The metal is a white-grey in coloration. The gauntlets are covered in a perpetual layer of frost, and leave frost crystals in the air with their passing. The greaves on the other hand crackle with electricity, sparks and arcs often dancing around the pair.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Short Biography</span></span>
A fairly closed lip is kept when it comes to Raule’s whereabouts prior to his time at the Academy. As far as anybody knows he survived and was changed by an encounter with a Voidkin when he was 13. The small town and surrounding forest he called home was not so fortunate and erased from existence, a massive crater left in its place. What occurred in the two years prior to his arrival at the Academy is still anyone’s guess, but he’s attended it for the last five years successfully. 

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Despite his appearance and “race”, Raule enjoys the days he can spend without the company of his weapons. Flexible and tolerant, he goes with the flow rather easily amongst his acquaintances. Not overly cheerful or enthusiastic, Raule is more reserved about how he expresses himself. Reliable and responsive though, he’s the type of person to take things into his own hands rather than wait for others, but he’ll never try and stand in the spotlight.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Partner</span></span> 
Guess it’s up in the air.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span></span>
Strictly a close-ranged fighter, if kept at a distance there’s not much Raule can do to his opponents. His reach with Void-based abilities extend a bit further, but only a dozen feet or so. 

While he’s fairly good at managing his limits, overuse of Void energy will erode his body despite its innate resistance. His eyes will begin to glow a blood red once the threshold has been reached.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span></span> 
Physically more able than a human, even without tapping into internal sources of power. He’s stronger, faster, more durable, and overall just better. 

His existence, like all other Voidkins, is an anomaly. While he still requires sleep and does age, many of his biological needs are no longer that. The Void essentially constantly purges his body of external influences and sustains him in their absence. He requires no sustenance and has a high resistance to poisons, toxins, and diseases. At the same time, magic that influences one’s internals such as telepathy or mental illusions are quickly broken against Raule. Sadly, beneficial magics, such as healings or blessings, are also rendered ineffective for him. Magic with enough power behind it will punch through the Void’s effects, but its effects will be reduced.

Void energy is highly destructive to put mildly. If it exists, the Void will try and fix that and leave nothing in its passing. Matter, energy, even spiritual existences are all touchable with the paradoxical energy.
<div class=""bb-indent"">It essentially acts as a universal corrosive and will, given enough time and a steady supply, dissolve anything into nothing. Density is the main factor in how resistant something is towards the Void's effect as there is more material to corrode away.</div> 
As befitting of his class designation, Raule is an experienced warrior. He fares well in messy melees, but shines in combat against individuals. Despite still attending the Academy, he’s already seen his fair share of ventures into the Black Gale. The fact that he has returned alive speaks enough.

Magic Bomberman - Uriel uses explosive marbles to fight for him, each of which is as destructive as a rudimentary grenade. However, each marble he uses has an elemental association. Red marbles have more fire than usual, light blue can shoot out huge water currents but have little direct attack power, yellow has electricity, and ect. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>
 
Just a <a href=""http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing?.out=jpg&amp;size=l&amp;tid=85751651"" rel=""nofollow"">small bag</a> that contains his marbles, which regenerate whenever it becomes empty. It was nicknamed 'Bag of Mayhem' because of its contents. 

List of marbles include -

Red / Fire - Explosive

Black / Tar - Oil

Dark Blue / Ice

Light Blue / Water

Yellow / Electric 

White / Flash - Noise

Light Green / Wind - Force

Dark Green / Earth 

Neon Green / Acid - Poison

Dark Gray / Cement - Concrete 

Brown / Wood 

Light Gray / Smoke

Purple / Gravity

Also, if Uriel cracks or partially breaks a marble(s) before throwing it, their effects combine in ways different to those listed, such as Earth and fire creating a very small burst of magma, and the likes. The number of marbles used will also change the effects. Such as two cracked earth marbles will create pure iron or steel shards.

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>
 
Born shortly Lucis and earth came together, he was an orphaned child who was taken in by a magician. A lucis magician, who had turned to earth to live and work there. Gabriel worked under him, and was taken care of. Now, the man who he had been picked up by was no average magician, but instead, was a inter-world weapons smuggler under the guise of a entertainer. Raised by such a man, Gabriel was asked to take up a fake name and was to help him with his duties. He did, with much vigor, help out his foster father. He grew up quickly, and was able to learn from him with little effort or argument. This was all and good, until 'Uriel' grew up and eventually wanted to go to school. At 14, he was invited to the Academy of Arcane Artes, and had a very awkward discussion with his father. Now, although he wished to keep receiving Uriels help, he would let his son go to the school. So long as he stayed safe, and accepted his gift. It was one of their strongest smuggled weapons, the Bag of Mayhem.
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
 
Uriel isn't too aggressive, but he does enjoy toying around with people when he can. Now, although he enjoys a good fight he isn't up for severely injuring others. He rather, is in a fight so long as he has the spotlight and can cause some destruction. These urges, though, have recently started to dwindle a bit. In his third year, he has been finding himself calm and lacking destructive wants more often then not. Although his history might suggest otherwise, Uriel wants to have a legitimate job. He goes to the school in dreams of becoming a Gate Guardian, and a damn good one at that. Well, good despite the urges to fuck with people wanting to cross through.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
 
Uriel only has an average human body, which he hasn't trained too well. Only as strong as your average lad, he can't climb, run, or take hits better then the your everyday joe. His marbles can't be used too close to him, or else he can also be damaged by them and suffer their effects. He gets <span class=""bb-i"">extremely</span> uncomfortable around races that don't look human-like. He has no resistances to any form of magic, and a good physical attack can knock him out, if he doesn't die or feint due to blood loss. 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span>
 
He has a good throwing arm, and accuracy. That is perhaps the only thing that sets him apart from most humans. He can also use multiple marbles at once (up to three) to amplify or combine their effects.

Follows authority figures more often then not, despite what his actions may lead you to believe sometimes. ( At least the ones at school )  / Uriel = God is my light. He has sore-spot in his mind about needing tools to be a gatekeeper and to stand a chance a fight. Talking shit about how he can only fight through the bag is a quick way to make an enemy.</div></div>"

Lucis

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span></span>
Ma was born to a coven of Witches that lived secluded from the rest of the world of Lucis, deep a tangled forest, filled with darkness and old Magicks. Witches would be trained by the coven and then sent out to journey among the other races, crafting and selling Magical trinkets and items for the inhabitants of towns they passed through. In this way they could use their craft to support their isolated community, returning on occasion with a portion of their hard earned money that the coven could use to buy much needed supplies from nearby villages. When a Witch became too old to travel, they would retire to a life of teaching the next generation. Ma was in the midst of her travels when she received the invitation to join the Academy.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span></span>
Ma is a bit of a space case, ignorant of modern technology and fascinated by it. She is easily distracted and has trouble focusing on anything that doesn't catch her interest. The only time she's guaranteed to focus one hundred percent is when she is crafting a magical item.

[This can either be assigned to you or you can figure out who you want to partner with.]
  
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span></span>
Combat relies heavily on Ma's items. If she didn't have the foresight to craft something to defend against a specific threat, then there isn't much she can do. She is afraid of thunder and lightning. She is also extremely near-sighted and, without her glasses, is practically blind.
  
<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span></span>
Ma is a prodigy in the field of Witchcraft, the practice of crafting items and binding spirits, intangible wisps of sentient magical energy, into them to infuse them with Magical traits.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Familiar</span></span>
Witches are always accompanied by a familiar, a Magical creature that they are bonded to for life. The Familiar plays an important role in Witchcraft as it draws spirits close and allows the Witch to trap and bind them into items.

Ma's Familiar is a foul-mouthed Hellcat named Sid. A Hellcat is created when a spirit possesses a normal cat, causing it to change physically and gain the ability of speech. Sid was possessed as a kitten and is perpetually ill-tempered. He remains inside her coat or under her hat for the most part, emerging only when it is required of him.

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Other</span></span>
Ma speaks with a childish lisp.

Technically spirits can be bound into just about anything, but it is easier to bind them into item crafted from wood harvested from the trees of the dark forest, For this reason she has brought a sapling with her to the Academy, to continue her craft.</div></div></div></div>"

Though she doesn't know her true birthday, she has chosen February 14th. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Astrological Sign</span>

<span class=""bb-b"">Species</span>
Succubi - Your typical race of horny devils. She is a demon, however a fairly powerful in that she can control her powers to ensure she doesn't accidentally harm others, or even suppress them to make sure she doesn't harm herself with them. For example, she can suppress her demonic blood to turn herself into a mortal human, making her immune or at least resistant to most anti-demon things. Of course she'd be a human instead of a demon, so the trade off tends to be situational.

<span class=""bb-b"">Class</span>
Sorcerer - Magic is in her blood and she can use it instinctively. Most of her magic are Illusion based, which can range from anything to simply creating a false image to mind-controlling those who lack the means to stop her. She also able to use some shapeshifting magic including creating physical doppelgangers.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>
Forgoes physical weapons and instead relies on her natural talents. As in, she can create claws to protect herself against most foes, though admittedly they aren't exactly useful against more armored opponents. Though she does have above-average strength compared to most mortals to compensate for her lack of weapon expertise.

<span class=""bb-b"">World</span>
Lucis

<span class=""bb-b"">Short Biography</span>
Rei doesn't know, nor care, how she came to be. Because as far as she cares she's lived a life of continuous luxury. Sure there where some lean years, but being who she was, it wasn't hard for her to get what she wanted. As far back as Rei can remember her life was nothing but one thrill seek after another. Most of the time she just slept around, but occasionally she'd find herself getting off in a fight, or settling down and raising a family. These dream-like memories hold some importance to Rei, but only because she knows they're things she's done in the past, and now seeks something new to do in the future. She heard about this Arcane Academy as well as these ""Earthlings"", which drove her interest in their direction. Besides that, she felt that this would make a good setting for some... Guilty pleasures. But not only that, but she figured this could also help her elevate the status of demons in Lucis, to create a safe haven for them where they don't get hunted down all the time and have to go back to hell (It's a pretty shitty place, believe it or not). Though she has no real authority over demonkind, she's at least trying to work on relations between demons and others, while indulging in her cardinal desires.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Horny, basically. She's a succubi. Of course she can be deeper than that, and despite her constant state of heat she can see past people's physical appearance for who they really are. And even if they're scumbags she might hang out with them, if only so she can figure out how to screw them over (Both ways) later on at her amusement. A good bad girl if there ever was one.

<span class=""bb-b"">Partner</span>
She'll take on anyone

<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
Though Rei is a fearless girl, she knows when she finds herself in a bad rut. Many anti-demonic things are highly damaging against her and she lacks any real means to overcome them. The best she can do is turn herself into a mortal human, and that comes with the weakness that she is now a mortal human. In that state she can't use her magic or even her regular demonic strength, at least not until she changes back into a succubi. Rei also isn't too great against tough enemies who can resist her magic, as her physical attacks are subpar compared to other demons. Rei is a instinctual fighter as well, and has a hard time figuring out tactics or using techniques in combat.

<span class=""bb-b"">Strange Attributes/Abilities/Traits</span>
As a succubi Rei has access to Illusion magics and Shapeshifting. Her illusions can affect most things with a pulse, though notably not useful against the undead, constructs, and those who can temper their minds (Like monks and wizards). At the very least she has to put a lot of energy into it. The illusions affects one's mind and how they perceive the world, to the point that to a less knowledgeable person she may as well be a reality warper. However she can only affect one sense at a time , and repeated use against a single target makes it less effective. She predominately uses her Shapeshifting to take on different physical forms for sex, but she can do partial transformations and turn into more things than just humanoid forms, but she has to have bounded with them at some point if she wants to transform with them on the fly. And by bound I mean she has to have sex with it.

Physically Rei is also much stronger than your average mortal, at least she's as strong as their maximum potential. She's also pretty tough, able to resist a lot of pain and illnesses. She'd need to otherwise she'd have a lot of STDs.

<span class=""bb-b"">Class</span>
Blood Rager - While many ferocious combatants can tap into a deep reservoir of buried  rage, bloodragers have an intrinsic power that seethes within. Like  sorcerers, bloodragers' veins surge with arcane power. While sorcerers  use this power for spellcasting, bloodragers enter an altered state in  which their bloodline becomes manifest, where the echoes of their  strange ancestry lash out with devastating power. In these states,  bloodragers can cast some arcane spells instinctively. The bloodrager's  magic is as fast, violent, and seemingly unstoppable as their physical  prowess.

<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon</span>
Ralthavar carries and uses many weapons. One of the most often used is his signature Double Orc Axe. In the hands of others this weapon is cumbersome and impractical. But in the hands of Ralthavar it's capable of facing off against even the most skillful of opponents. The blades are made of adamantium, a material known to phase through other metals like water, and sunders them thusly. Another weapon that Ralthavar carries is a magical club known as the Boulder Head Mace. He can launch the mace head into the air where it will transform into a large granite boulder, threatening to crush anything in it's path. He also owns another magical weapon known as the Shift Steel. It appears to be a simple steel dagger, but it's capable of changing the size of it's blade and hilt, so it may turn into a dagger to a great sword, or from a longsword to a spear. Another weapon Ralthavar carries is actually his armor. Both a symbol of his status as well as practical protective fear Rathalvar owns a set of highly ornate full-plate armor with a patching Tower Shield. The armor is not made from metal, but carved from stone. In anyone else wearing it is a death sentence. But thanks to Ralthavar's blood, he can don the armor and wield the shield as though it was nothing to him.

<span class=""bb-b"">World</span>
Lucis

<span class=""bb-b"">Short Biography</span>
Ralthavar was born just a few years after the liberation of Malakaus, the land of the orcs, from the Demon God Karnage. He grew up during what his father calls ""The Harmony"", where orcs attempted to make amends to the other races whom they waged war against. It was a difficult time for them, as their war spanned centuries, and devastated much. It would only make sense that none trusted the orcs, but they tried anyways. Even at a young age, Ralthavar did his duty to try to make peace with the other races of Lucis. Though he was still raised in the way of the orcs, Ralthvar acted as a bridge between the orcs and the races of Lucis, in an attempt to foster a better future. When he heard of the Arcane Academy being formed with the Earth World beyond the black gate, Ralthavar volunteered himself to lead his people and anyone else willing to join them. Thus he created the group ""The Harmonious First"", a mixed collection of orcs, elves, dwarves, goblins, and other races in Lucis to not only represent Lucis as a whole, but to ease tensions between his people and his world.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Ralthavar can certainly act the part of a boisterous bruiser who thinks of violence first and peaceful alternative second. But he can also be the opposite if it suits him. Ralthavar is unique amongst his kind in that he at least considers nonviolence as a solution instead of the only solution. He is very accepting of others to the point of stupidity, employing those who have obviously ill intention against him and his friends. And while he would defend them to the death, he would do the same to those who would betray him, if only because he see's it as his respectability to not only keep them alive, but punish them in a way most suiting.

<span class=""bb-b"">Partner</span>
None so far.

<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
Although Ralthavar projects himself as a strong leader, he's quite susceptible to peer pressure, and constantly feels that he must do his best to keep everyone happy, even if he must sacrifice himself. Ralthavar dislikes having to lose even a little bit, which tends to result in ""All or nothing"" plans and strategies. This extremism even extends to his everyday life; nothing is too miniscule that it can't be taken seriously, from a petty insult to the murder of a love one. Ralthavar has a lot of power that he doesn't know how to control.

<span class=""bb-b"">Strange Attributes/Abilities/Traits</span>
Individually Ralthavar is a skilled warrior. He is agile even in his signature heavy stone armor, and even without it he's a tough orc to crack. He has some magical abilities but he can only use them when he gives into his Blood Rage, which itself taps into the residue power of Xia, the former orc Goddess of Growth. Though his spells are nature based even he isn't sure what magics could happen during his Blood Rages. It could vary from anything to turning into a colossal beast or sprouting an entire forest around him, or calling form a tornado that ravages the land and would likely kill him in the crossfire. The only thing that can be said for certain is that the stronger his rage, the more powerful the spell.

<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP9I8ZUwKpc"">A song that represents who they are</a>.

<span class=""bb-b"">Other</span>
Ralthavar is technically a prince: his father is none other than Malakaus Marchrosias, the current king of Malakaus. Ralthavar also has a companion named Andari, a Worgan (Giant Wolf) whom serves as his mount and close friend. Ralthavar also leads the Harmonious first, about a hundred students from Lucis who technically follow his word as their leader. Though the only ones who do so unquestionably are the orcs, whom only make up thirty out of the hundred. Ralthavar is also working on learning how to use the new weapons from Earth, such as ""Guns"" and one weapon that interests him the most, the Chainsaw.</div></div></div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Class:</span>
<span class=""bb-i"">Ruler</span> – A flexible ‘class’ that mainly entails commanding others to do their bidding. To put into RPG terms, it would be the strategist-class, with a ton of party buffs, stat re-allocation, and mana pool sharing capabilities.

Elodie is undoubtedly the former.
<span class=""bb-b"">Weapon:</span> Elodie uses a sword that is more ceremonial than practical. Crafted not through flames and hammerblows but through meticulous chiselling, she wields a flashy, sparkling long sword made out of a single piece of quartz. Perfectly white and surprisingly light, it’s symmetrical and balanced, roughly three feet long. In the darkness, it shimmers a ghostly aura, the only indication that it’s an ensorcelled blade, enchanted to be light enough that the princess can actually swing it around.

<span class=""bb-b"">World:</span> Lucis
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography:</span> When she was still a princess, groomed to becoming a queen, Meiron didn’t think much of her position. It was something she was born to, and all those lavish luxuries were things that she took for granted. As one of the few pureblooded Kamiris left in Lucis, she was expected to become the next ruler of her country, forming a pact of fealty with practically every single citizen in her territories. All those things were planned, and all those things…didn’t happen.

Why? Because people got sick of the monarchy and rebelled.

Within a few months, the civil war had reached the castle that the princess lived in. Following that was a year-long siege, before the peasants finally overcame the castle walls. The royal family of Elo-Dezemineh, thus, were executed quickly. The only reason Meiron lived was because her body double took her spot on the guillotine. Yet, despite all the bloodshed, and all those supposedly traumatizing events…Meiron didn’t exactly care. Under the guidance of a few loyalists, she escaped the country, took on a fake name, and, despite the fact that her disguises were revealed quite handily by her big mouth, she somehow managed to survive long enough to get to the one true neutral ‘nation’ in Lucis.

The Academy of Arcane Arts.

Interestingly enough, the Headmaster granted her amnesty without having her take any sort of entrance exam. People say that it’s because he’s a pedophile, but others say that it’s just called ‘being a halfway decent person’.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality:</span> Elodie Maya is arrogant, in the charming, silly way that only an egotistical little girl could be. At times, it even looks like she’s trying too hard to be like a proper Ruler, to the extent that she’ll break rules because she ‘makes the rules’. A weird first year, to be sure, but despite her pride and her big mouth, Elodie definitely strives to be a good person.
<span class=""bb-b"">Partner:</span> <span class=""bb-i"">“Give me your best first year, Headmaster.”</span>
<span class=""bb-b"">Fears/Weaknesses/Limits:</span>
Elodie can’t fight. No joke. She’d love to be able to fight, but no one expected any actual war…until, you know, the civil war happened. Which is why she’s learning to fight now! Which also means that it’ll be a long time until she’s able to do anything without the assistance of her magic.
Despite being raised up in an environment of political intrigue or whatever, Elodie sucks at lying, yet paradoxically sucks at being honest. She’s pretty terrible at expressing her feelings, making her a socially awkward person overall.
Fuck pigs. Elodie hates pigs. Even in the form of delicious bacon, she hates pigs. And if you’re a pigman? She will fucking sue you for emotionally traumatizing her.
Unlike practically every other person in the Academy, Elodie is a normal human. She will never become superhuman without using magical powers or drugs. Meaning that guns are actually effective against her! Surprise!

<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits:</span>
Kamirisean Magic – A system of magic unique to pureblood Kamiris, it revolves around the concept of utilizing contracts between a ‘master’ and a ‘servant’ in order to do magical things. First and foremost, a contract must be drafted and signed with the blood of both participants. The contents of the contract itself does not matter, simply that both names are provided. After a contract has been formed and the spell has been said, a small line will appear on left arm of the Master, creating a link between the two of them. If examined very closely, that line would be the name of the Servant. As more and more contracts and made, more and more of these lines will appear, creating a vine-like tattoo wrapping around the arm of the Master. Death is the only way to break the contract without the consent of the Master.

After the contract is made, Elodie is capable of three major things. First off, she is able to take one-tenth of all her Servant’s mana and make a ‘public pool’ from it, in which they can all take from freely. Through this, even if they run out of their own mana, they will be able to cast spells longer by relying solely on the public mana pool. Second, the Master is able to allocate the stats of strength and speed amongst her Servants. While verbal consent is required for the trade-off to happen, through this, she is able to make one of her contracts stronger, faster, or more durable, at the expense of another’s physical attributes. Finally, the princess is capable of switching the positions of her subjects at whim, though it does take a reasonable amount of mana to do so.

Of course, all this magic is fairly useless if she doesn’t have Servants the first place.

And it also sucks because Elodie never got to the more complex parts of Kamirisean Contract Magic because, you know, every other Kamiris is dead?

Unicorn-A race of magical, sentient horses that can take on a Human form. Because they've been hunter to near extinction by people after their magical horns, they tend to live a hermits life. Unicorns are also said to be naturals at healing magic. An odd quirk of their race is when reproducing with another race, the offspring will either be a full blood Unicorn, or what ever species the other parent is. This seems to be determined by the race of the other parent; When a Human and a Unicorn have a child, it's a Unicorn, but if it was an Elf, then the child would be an Elf. Because of this, there are no half Unicorn

Biography
 
Mathew's father was a knight forced into retirement by injury. He met and fell in love with a beautiful Unicorn women. After a year of courting, the two were married. It wasn't long after that she became pregnant with Mathew.

Out of fear for her life and that of her son's, she and her husband kept her Unicorn heritage a secret from everyone, except for Mathew of course. Because he was forced to hide his true race, he never got much time to practice his powers. As such, Mathew lived the life of a normal human boy...although such a life left him wanting more

While becoming a knight like his father seemed like an easy solution to such a problem, he was concerned about his secret and if he would be able to keep it if he took the path of a knight. As such, he decided that he needed to find a place where he didn't need to keep his secret. Something that he found in the Academy of the Arcane Artes
  
Personality
 
Mathew is a scholar and a gentleman. He is even tempered and a patient boy. That said, it's not impossible to get on his bad side. Mistreating women and children are a really quick way to do so. He's the kind of guy who makes an effort to get along with everyone he can

Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)
 
Unicorns are good as passing as normal Humans because their physical power is roughly the same as one when not in their Unicorn form. As for their Unicorn form; because of the shape of their body, they have trouble dealing with anything behind them, as well as turning around fast enough to deal with anyone attacking them, not helped by the fact that they can only channel magic through their horn in this form. They also have a hard time getting someone off of their back. Also, the loss of their hands means that they can only grab things with their mouth. Because the transformation form from Human for to Unicorn form takes roughly ten seconds, changing forms in battle leaves him open to attack
  
Skills/Abilities/Traits
 
As a Unicorn, he naturally has access to light elemental magic. However, due to his lack of training, the most he can do is create gumball sized balls of light to fire at foes. In his Unicorn form, he gets a significant boost in running speed and stamina, as well as a minor strength boost. As for healing powers, as of now he can only heal light wounds

Penelope [-]

 When she's in her aquatic form, her legs fuse to form a green, scaly tail with a delicate fin. The scales are far closer to a snake's than a fish's. 

Full name: Penelope Ashford 

Alias: N/A 

Nickname: Penny, Aquagirl 

Gender: Female 

Age: 16 

Year: First 

Birthday: February 16 

Sign: Pisces 

Species: Sirens are the darker side of merfolk, not necessarily evil or malicious, but far more likely to bear those traits. They can breathe both water or air, and their lower fins transform into legs when out of water. Their most prominent and disturbing physical feature is their teeth, which do not change between forms. They are long and needle-like, evolved for spearing fish. 

Class: Seamaster 
The seamaster is at home aboard a ship, with the wind at their back and salt spray in their face. A true maritime expert, the seamaster is proficient in sailing, water magic, and close-quarters combat. 

Weapon: A steel cutlass named Seacutter, enchanted to be as easy to swing in water as in air. 

Lucis 

Biography: Penelope is the daughter of a merfolk Duchess, and as such, grew up in a life of luxury with servants to wait on her hand and fin. However, her mother ticked off the King with so many sleights, he revoked her titles and land. The family is still living comfortably, but it's a step down from where they were. Penelope sees her time at the academy as a chance to start climbing the social ladder and regain her family's status. 

Partner: Willing to partner with anyone 

Personality: The first thing people notice about Penelope is that she snarks with the best of them. Her natural instinct is to treat both bad news and outright danger with sarcasm. If one can get through her tough exterior, which isn't easy, she start feeling more comfortable around them. 

Strange abilities and traits: Sirens have an innate affinity for water magic. Powerful sirens have been known to dispel storms at sea and lift entire lakes from their beds, even turning their entire bodies into living water, but right now, Penelope's powers are barely enough to fill a small bathtub 

Hypnotic Song: All Sirens have a song that can hypnotize weak-willed members of the opposite sex. However, it will not work on mechanical lifeforms. 

Fears/weaknesses: Penelope often sets high expectations for herself, and berates herself if she fails to meet them. She also will not work well with individuals who aren't similarly driven. She's also afraid of being stuck underground. 

Other: Has an excellent head for mathematics</div>"

Gender
 
Generally refereed to as female.
  
Age
 
5 years old
  
Year
 
Second Year
  
Birthday
 
Was first made on May Seventieth.
  
Astrological Sign
 
Gemini
  
Species
 
Sapient AI - Yuga isn't a robot per say, but sentient soft ware. Specifically she's an attempt to create an artificial intelligence capable of adapting and replicating the personality and knowledge of others. Yuga is a newer model with an more easily adaptable memory and better grasp of personality and independence.
   
Class
 
Tank - Yuga prefers forms with heavy armor and heavy firepower. Be it artillery pieces or giant mechs. Generally being tough to kill but also able to draw as much focus on her as she can.
  
Weapon
 
Yuga's weapons depend on what sort of body she inhabits, and she can only inhabit machines that have a compatible Operating System specifically made for her. That being said she can easily hack that OS into most machines if there is some way for her to connect directly into the terminal. Most earth-made computerized terminals she can attach a sort of ""bug"" if she has access it's hard drive directly using a device built into her current body (See the Appearance) though she can also upload her OS through physical port. If the device is capable of receiving Wifi or other similar wireless data she can also attempt to download her OS that way, though it does require permission from the terminal (So she basically uploads herself akin to Malware). 

Yuga's current body (See the appearance) is incredibly durable and agile. Her strength is also well beyond human but not much higher than that. This body's only unique defensive weapon is creating reflective barriers can deflect kinetic objects back to their point of trajectory. It's mostly used for large, low velocity objects, such as falling rocks and such. It can be used to deflect smaller anti-personnel caliber bullets up to .357, but it strains the barriers. Also useless against lasers. It's a two-way barrier as well: Nothing goes in or out. She can also make her body glow at various light levels, from faint ambient light to like that of a flash bang. 
 
Yuga has a more combat focused <a href=""http://i.imgur.com/OPFilm3.jpg"">chassis</a> with much higher durability and weapons, but notable lacks hands for finer dexterity. Her right arm consist of a GAU-8/A Avenger 30mm rotary cannon with various attachments and accessories added to make the recoil more manageable. Her left arm is a variant of the Milkor MGL that is essentially ""Double Barrel"" though it is more accurately over-and-under. Yuga's shoulders also have twin linked Nebula VM20 plasma burst anti-armor blasters. It has a shorter range than the GAU-8 but but the searing heat from the plasma bolts makes it more reliable in disintegrating armor and melting flesh. It can also be sent to ""Less-than-Lethal"" on the occasions that Yuga must not kill her targets or be wary of friendly fire.

Biography
 
Yuga Abubu was the Eighteen Yugu AI created by a heartbroken scientist. He wanted to try to create an AI that could replicate the personality and memories of his dead daughter, but of course at some point during the process the scientist went insane and died. His research was claimed by a shadowy government organization as well as Yuga and her siblings. Yuga was one of the few AI's who developed enough to be considered ""Sentient"". She was quickly able to pick up basic school educational knowledge and essentially passed highschool when she was only three years old. And because she was the only one of her siblings to pass the personality test she was also allowed to join the Academy of the Arcane Artes to test her combat capabilities.

Originally she was simply going to be sent into the Black Gale on her own, however the price of her combat bodies and the unknown threats within the Black Gale made it too risky to send her alone, and even their scouting machines failed to come back after sorties. They also can't seem to access their machines once they past the Black Gale, and attempts to set up bases within the Black Gale were also equally ill-advisable. They couldn't get any information off of their robots and scouts once they left, and rarely do they ever come back. The only ones who did never went far in the first place. Thus, it was decided to be more practical for Yuga to attend the Academy of Arcane Artes to learn exactly what threats were within the Black Gale so she could send the data back to her company for further analysis, which in turn would help her combat these threats. (Basically she's at the Academy because it was cheaper to have her work with them than risk her multimillion dollar bodies for exploration since the other scouts they sent failed to come back and the ones that did don't have anything new. They also couldn't access any data they picked up once they pasted the Black Gale, so there was no safe way to transfer the data back.)
  
Personality
 
Yuga is a pretty passive person. You could almost say she's boring. She doesn't really react to insults or compliments. Of course she'd be more willing to hang out with people who don't make fun of her. Will find ways to occupy herself if no one has anything for her to do.
  
Partner
 
[This can either be assigned to you or you can figure out who you want to partner with.]
  
Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)
 
Yuga's current body is made for physical durability, but aside from that it can be shutdown with EMP's and such. It's also not suited for combat so it lacks any specific weapons to defend herself with. Yuga is actually afraid of the dark and will always try to make or be around some sort of light source. If for some reason she gets stuck in a dark area she will freak out. Yuga isn't sure why she's so afraid of the dark, though she thinks it might have to do with her original programming as the scientist who made her in the likeness of her daughter probably had a phobia of the dark. Yuga unfortunately picked that up, and can't seem to be rid of it.

Yuga as an AI is also defenseless to others manipulating her programming, if they can reach her terminal or gain access directly to whatever body she's in. While not so much an issue when she's in her body (Because she can fight back), her Main Terminal lacks self-defense. While it is safeguarded by various firewalls and such (It even has a self-destruct as a last resort) anyone competent in AI programming or has enough time to hack into her system could very well change who she is the next time she goes to link herself up to her Main Terminal. And she wouldn't know until she uploads herself, and by than it'll be too late.
  
Skills/Abilities/Traits
 
Yugu can edit and upload her own knowledge so she can preform jobs depending on what sort of knowledge she uploads into her mind. Specifically what she does is alter her ""Memory Banks"" to whatever new Memory Bank she has with her. Memory Banks are pretty much different algorithms she can download into herself so she can use whatever skills are put onto those algorithms. It's sort of like having a mental step-by-step guide that Yuga can instinctively do. She can alter and make hybrids of these Memory Banks, but there's a limit to how much data her Memory Banks can hold. More sophisticated and detailed memory banks typically use up a lot of data, not including new data she'd add simply from learning. Her creators would normally send her different memory banks but she can make some herself simply by observing and learning about others, then copying what she learned into blank Memory Banks if she has them uploaded into her body. These Memory Banks come in the form of physical chips she puts into the back of her head.

Yuga is also technically immortal. She isn't reliant on her physical body at all: should it be destroyed she simply moves to her Main Terminal which essential serves as her Spawn Point. The Main Terminal is essentially a super computer/miniature robotic factory where Yuga stores her other bodies, including replacement bodies of her current form (But not her combat body as it's way too expansive to make more than one of if they aren't going to see regular use). At the Main Terminal Yuga can store her memories and send them back to the Company for record keeping, as well as holding a copy of Yuga's AI Code. These codes are essentially save files like those you'd have in a video game, and like a video game she has to come back regularly and store her AI Code if she doesn't want to forget anything should she end up destroyed before than. The Main Terminal also requires Yuga to check in once a day unless otherwise specified, however it can only go for a week before it creates a new Yuga. While this Yuga has access to the most recent AI Code, it would be made specifically for the task of finding out the whereabouts of the previous Yuga. It cannot serve any other purpose until it finds a sufficient answer. If it finds the original Yuga alive it will attempt to bring her back or at least share her data to report back to the Main Terminal. If the Yuga is destroyed it would also report that and salvage whatever data is left available. If the new Yuga cannot find any remains of the original Yuga it will return to the Main Terminal and report back to the Company. Within a week or so the Company would send back a new AI Code of Yuga using her most recent memories, thus allowing her to come back just herself, albeit voided of any knowledge she had since her last time leaving the Main Terminal.

Other
 
Yuga keeps in contact with her other siblings and expects some of them to arrive to the Academy within the year. She's also the only one of her siblings to still refers to herself as Yuga Abubu. She also needs to eat, albeit not as much as a normal human would. She's much better at digesting and processing biomass so she doesn't necessarily have to ""Eat"" food. She can identify what she eats to process it's qualities and determine if it's safe to be consumed by others using this knowledge. She prefers meat however, specifically chicken, especially when it's fried.</div>"

<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>
Zar was born, but barely raised in Pakistan, as she immersed her self in education in other countries after primary school thanks to her wealthy family. Maybe it was because she was born around the time the Black Gale appeared, but she had always been intensely interested in becoming a Gatekeeper. And from preschool and on, she was always attending an elite academy. Maybe it's because she's an only child or maybe she's just a really driven person, but she was always outstanding in her classes. 

With the Black Gale and Lucis such a modern, exciting issue through her youth, her interest in it only grew. So, at fifteen, when she received the invitation to join the Academy, she jumped on it. And when she first arrived, the skill gap between other students...didn't scare the girl. Instead, she was inspired to work even harder so she could stand on equal footing with other students. This lead to her time at the Academy being spent on combat and tactics and on her time on Earth furthering her knowledge about technology. 

Now, she's a fifth a year, ready to contribute all that she has built upon until now to the fight for peace. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
Despite her resting bitch face and intimidating, boarderline-goth appearance, Zar is quite friendly upon first interaction. However, she's outspoken and will let you know when she agrees or disagrees with you. She has a sense of humor--assuming she isn't the subject--and can be surprisingly charismatic when she's passionate about something. Zar is independent but loyal and makes an effort to work with others for the greater good.

To be decided
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
Well unlike all these freaks, she's just a human. Her melee skills are good, but probably her weakest point as she prefers to keep her distance in a battle. (AKA other 5th years are more than likely better at it.) And although she makes an effort, she still has trouble working others. Has trouble trusting others due to a fear of potential rejection or betrayal.
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span>
She's particularly strong for a human woman, as she needs to be to wield her weapon at close range. She's surprisingly quick and agile, as well. There's nothing superhuman about her, however. Zar likes to keep her distance, where she can observe and plan. She doesn't have luxury of being able to run in blind, fists swinging. So, she's very methodical and cautious. Even in melee, her pole arm allows her to keep her distance as opposed to getting too close to the enemy.

Infused with some form of magic, Striker and Jett can communicate with one another through their minds. This sword was passed down to him by his father, an elf from Lucius.

<div class=""bb-center"">Living in this time of ""peace"" Jett still wasn't convinced this could last. His father, once a great master of the sword, fell in love with an earthling. Jett was born from an elf and a human, making Jett and exceptional cross-breed. His father was very hard on Jett, making him train everyday for 13 years with his weapon. His mother died to a fatale illness, but through this hardship, Jett maintained his training, shortly after, his father, unable to live with the grief of not saving his wife, he took his own life. Having to vacate his home, Jett was on the street. He was picked up by a criminal organization and learnt how to steal and fight without a weapon. He did multiple jobs and got into deep, he never liked the idea of what he was doing, he needed out. He left one night, knowing too much information about their organization. He has to hide is identity and changes it quite often, this includes his hair and name. Knowing that he needed protection against both the members from his old gang and the law who were after him, Jett made contact with some orcs in Lucis. Though he never revealed his true identity to them, he was able to join their children in a group called ""The Harmonious First"", who were attending the Academy of the Arcane Arts. He signed himself up as a student/bodyguard for the Harmonious First, even though he was relying more on their protection than they were relying on his.</div>

Two guns, a pistol and a revolver.

He carries two tactical bowie knives during missions and training as well.
  
<span class=""bb-b"">World</span>
Earth
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span>
He grew up on the East Coast of the United States, basically in New York City. His interest in cybernetics came about in his late teens, due to a pretty geeky sci-fi obsession. After his 18th birthday, he signed up in a research program that granted him his implants. It wasn't long before he realized how well they worked in tandem with his already-impressive marksmanship skills, and honed them even further together. 

<span class=""bb-b"">Appearance</span>
I can't really find any good pictures that show what I'm going for, so I'll paint the beginning of a picture and you can fill in the blanks in your imagination.

He's white, with blue-grey eyes and dark brown hair. Shorter, but pushed up in the front, sometimes a few short strays hang down onto his forehead. Strong chin/jawline, clean-shaven. On the taller-average side, about 6'2"". Muscular, not huge, but it's fairly apparent he works out. The implants look something vaguely like Cyborgs <a href=""http://findthefire.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/lvl-18.png"">implants</a> from SWTOR, having nothing better as a reference point. Ignore the large mouthpiece, and you'll get the idea. As for the arm, it looks mostly human-like, just metal and cybernetic and shit. I'm sure you get the idea.

<span class=""bb-b"">Personality</span>
He's pretty laid-back. He's got the qualities of a leader (and they do show through), but prefers to let others work things out themselves. That said, when things need to get done, he isn't afraid to step up. He doesn't take crap from people, but he knows when to keep his mouth shut.
In short: He's mostly laid-back, but he expects respect when serious situations arise. 

  <span class=""bb-b"">Partner</span>
""Well, my last one graduated. So. Guess we'll have to figure that out."" 
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)</span>
""Ever since that one mission with the huge-ass spider things... -He shudders.- They almost got me, man...""
Kinda like Farkas and Frostbite Spiders from Skyrim. He hates man-sized spiders, things that resemble them, or going into hives covered in webs or goo that looks like their nests.

""EMP weapons? Oh, yeah. Keep those f***in' things away from me. Christ. You trying to kill me?""
They disable his computing systems, and it actually hurts him.
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</span>
 He has several cybernetic implants, specifically in his arms (his right arm is actually an entire replacement, it was amputated during the research), hands, legs, feet, brain, eyes, and ears. They provide various upgrades (obviously nothing too major), such as enhanced vision, stamina, strength, hearing, making him ambidextrous, etc. Incredibly gifted as a marksman naturally, the systems in his implants increase his already-frightening skills into almost pinpoint accuracy.

Due to the amount of time he spent developing his other techniques, he's slacked on his magical ability. He isn't much more skilled than a first or second year magic-wise, but knows enough for survival purposes.
   
<span class=""bb-b"">Theme Song</span>
Chris is sitting on a bench outside, earbuds in. A <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbNlMtqrYS0"">song</a> can be faintly heard by the freshman sitting next to him. He stares at Chris for a moment, before Chris turns and raises an eyebrow. The freshman nervously eyes the outline of a holster underneath Chris's jacket. Are you <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> going to judge him?
  
<span class=""bb-b"">Other</span>
He often blatantly disregards the school's uniform policy. He hates the jacket, so he just doesn't wear it, opting instead for one of his various military or utility jackets. When not wearing a jacket, his shirt sleeves are almost always rolled up casually.

 He plays guitar, preferring acoustic, and does so extremely well thanks to his cybernetic arm. Is that cheating?</div></div></div>"

1024, looks to be 19-25 (first 1000 years were spent as a feral fox)
  
Year
 
1st
  
Birthday
 
March 31
  
Astrological Sign
 
Ares
  
Species
 
     Nine tailed (G/K)umiho, a slightly spiritually vampiric many tailed fox race, normally eating the hearts and livers of sentient creatures to increase and maintain their power, although  the organs of non-intelligent creatures give only about a tenth of the energy. They are inherently a possessive race when it comes to information about themselves, and rarely even give out their names, often making up completely false l backgrounds even when unnecessary. All kumihos start as feral foxes, gaining longevity after having eaten the heart and liver of a sentient race, and gaining sentience and magical ability after living a thousand years.
  
Class
 
     Enchanter, a shapeshifter with the ability to muddle the minds of Amon's targets, able to induce feelings of familiarity, kinship, lust, and fear among others, although can be fairly easy to resist if they are aware that it is occurring, and often breaks when Amon is suddenly surprised.
Weapon

     Fox orb- object which houses all a kumiho's stolen energy, must be available to channel spells more complex than cantrips. Can be controlled with a telekinesis limited to the orb up to about 7 foot radius away, and makes a fairly adequate bludgeoning tool. All of Amon's mana is stored in this orb, often holding about a week's worth of mana, which she uses in rations every day, recharging when she feeds. Normally this store is accessible to Amon alone, however it is possible for her to open this flow to others should she be willing to share. The recipient must be touching the orb to gain the mana, and once it is open they are free to take as much mana as they wish, which leaves the possibility of amon being totally drained and reverting to her primal state.

     If forced into fighting physically, Amon will shift into her Fox form, preferring to attack with fang and claw.

  
World
 
Lucis
  
Short Biography
 
     Kumihos,  as a naturally antagonistic species, are often hunted down early in their lives when located, and as such are a dwindling occurrence. In such conditions, Amon was hard pressed to find a kumiho's preferred food choice, namely the hearts  and livers of a sentient race, the signs of kumihos well known by now in Lucis, and would be soon chased from villages and towns after two or three meals.

     As sources of meals became more and more scarce, Amon heard there was indeed a completely new world even that would be ripe of unsuspecting meals. She found transportation easily enough after killing and taking the guise of a passenger scheduled to go to earth to start business talks, the death realized only after he failed to arrive at the meetings.

     Amon began cautiously feeding in the new world, a body in one town, a few homeless go missing in another, but soon became arrogant after no seeming retaliation, and soon began feeding with a passion. Soon she had been penned as the new Jack the Ripper, with bodies piling up with missing only their hearts and livers. Unbeknownst to Amon,  a task force was put together to apprehend her, using undercover police as bait, and soon captured Amon.

     Unfortunately, due to her obviously being from Lucis,  they were forced to alert the authorities on that side of the veil as to what had been captured.

     Amon happened to be the first kumiho to be captured in centuries due to most being killed when caught in Lucis. As such the academy saw what was a chance to, while under heavy restrictions, to see if it may be possible to tame such a species known only so far for leaving a trail of mauled bodies, and thus  Amon,  under the only offer of execution, has agreed to wear a leash, though is looking for a chance to break free. For a leash, no matter how long the chain, is simply an open air prison.
  
Personality
 
     Amon is very confident, very rarely second guessing a decision. Will make all attempts to make ""friends"" in a new setting, well aware of the use such allies can be when things go south, but same as a Fox will chew off a leg that's been trapped, Amon will always cast aside what is needed for survival.

     Hates to give anything away for free, and is very possessive and protective of anything she has. This can extend to allies or ""friends"", which some interpret as loyalty, a notion she does nothing to dissuade.


Partner
 
Have a few characters in mind, but I'll wait to see how it plays out.
  
Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s)
 
     Extreme fear of dogs, gets tense when the same room and will immediately try to leave, and can be reduced to a panicking mess if unable to get away. Has a limited supply of energy for magic off campus, up to a week of casting as an average caster, and each use there after without replenishment giving up some sentience and becoming more like a feral fox, and if denied a source of will revert to being stuck in fox form. If the Fox orb is taken away, energy steadily ekes out, reducing the time to two days, one if using magic. Must have Fox orb out to use magic stronger than cantrips 

Strange Attributes/Abilities/Traits
 
     Is able to shape shift at will between Amon's default forms, as well as take on the form of others Amon has studied fairly well, although there is usually a trait that gives Amon away,either the ears or a tail staying.

     Tends to think like a predator, making Amon well versed in chasing down a fleeing target, aided by enhanced hearing and scent.

Has a small affinity for fire spells, due more to Amon's species then actual practice, though with a little  effort who knows what may come of it. At the moment her range is severely limited to shooting embers at nearby targets, and with little control of the fire afterwards. One exception being she can set her orb ablaze, although this drains mana rather quickly due to a lack of control. Another useful trick used when often glossing persuerers is to release a bright flash to blinding those nearby. She learned it after trying to imitate fireworks she had seen before, though often comes away with a few burns after using it.

     As a condition of Amon's  release from execution, she has been shackled with an enchanted collar with a powerful slumber spell, made to knock out Amon should any predatory acts be attempted outside of missions, training, and classes, as well as a tracking spell the schools security can follow if she attempts to escape

     Can choose to gain the memories and mannerisms of those whose hearts and livers she eats, allowing her to better blend in when shapeshifted as them.

Her mind magic is often a subtle act working best on those not expecting it at all, with a mix of pheromone release and mind manipulation,  Amon inserts herself in the place of memories someone has strong feelings for, the person being chosen to fit the type of emotion she's going for. It takes a minimal effort of mana if the victim was caught unawares, but uncharacteristic acts can break the spell. However Amon can force her will on the other person, exerting more mana allowing her to override a person's ideas, when the pheromones trigger the appropriate responses. This will place her in a battle of wills though, determined by the other persons ability to see through the ruse.

     Is very agile and flexible, able to dislocate joints and such to squeeze through and out of things that may restrain her. She also has excellent  balance, almost impossible to knock of her center of gravity due to having nine appendages ready to equilibrilize her center of gravity.
  
Having been chased for most of her life after outstaying her welcome, Amon has become fairly adept at hiding, wether it be in shadows or in plain sight, easily making herself just another face in the crowd, and having the patience and willpower to stay cramped, uncomfortable, and still for hours on end.
Other

     Can only eat meats. She can stand spices and very small portions of vegetables, but will grow sick if forced to eat them regularly.

     While she can survive on the hearts and livers of animals, it's a lot like being hooked up on an IV,it gives her what she needs but does not stop the cravings

One of the first thing Amon saw when she became a completed kumiho was a fireworks show, and has been fascinated with the festive explosions ever since.</div>"

Joseph Conrad

Nickname(s):
N/A

Gender:
Male

Age:
19

Year:
Fourth year

Birthday:
October 13, 2048

Astrological Sign:
Libra

Species:
Augmented Human- Almost cyborg like, he has infrared and night vision due to eye implants. he also can slow down his perception of time due to implants in his brain and heart, which is also helps with his operation of power armor.

Class:
Assassin

Weapon(s)

X1-S Powered Armor: Power armor that focuses on mobility and stealth rather than the immense firepower and bulky armor normally attributed with others in it’s class. It gives the user superhuman speed, teleportation powers, and active camouflage, meaning the X1-S is more about avoiding being hit rather than being able to take hits.

Experimental Vibroblades: Essentially blades that vibrate at an extremely high frequency, allowing him to slice through pretty much anything, although some sturdy and hardier materials, normally those used the the creation of heavy armor, takes a while for the vibroblades to pierce through. 

World:
Earth

Short Biography:

The US government had exhausted most of its military might, and around 2056, having the biggest gun around didn't help when the US was spread too far and wide. The exacting toll it had on the budget was excruciating as well. Therefore, military officials had decided to see if they could change their military doctrine to lighter, more agile, more elite soldiers. Instead of fighting head on with conventional weaponry, this new breed of soldier would participate in the same tactics as the terrorists and rebels that had thwarted the US’s usual policy of overwhelming firepower. Waging a guerrilla war against a guerrilla war, fighting fire with fire. These soldiers would be sent in by the dozens. They would then proceed to demoralize the opposing force to the point of surrender, utilizing hit and run attacks, taking out key targets, and disrupting supply lines. Joseph was chosen to be trained and equipped by this new military program, and he was willing enough as Joseph wasn't exactly well off the begin with in the first place. He spent many years training to become the scalpel of the US armed forces, but the project was shut down. Too much money and resources that didn’t justify its implementation, not to mention politicians who were slashing every budget other than their salary. Joseph soon received a letter from the Arcane Artes, where he has spent the past four years schooling to become a Gatekeeper.

Personality:
Loves to be very sarcastic. Somewhat of a cynic, as he loves to point out anything and everything that is wrong or depressing. 

Partner 
Unassigned as of now.

Fear(s)/Weakness(es)/Limit(s):

His power armor was only built for speed, not protection. Anything bigger than a pistol will be able to harm him. Joseph's enhanced reaction speed also doesn’t mean he can dodge everything, as his powered armor has limits. Joseph can see it coming, for example, a shotgun fired at him from point blank range. While his brain was fast enough to process the firearm being discharged, he probably won’t be fast enough to dodge the pellets at all. This also means he is very susceptible to AOE attacks. The X1-S isn't resistant to EMPs, so lighting magic would also be effective. His stealth isn’t perfect either, as his Active Camo reflects light, so a visual distortion would be present as he cloaks, revealing his position to those nearby. Teleportation range is limited to 50 feet, which is only a bit longer than the average school bus. 


Strange Attributes/Abilities/Traits:
Has an uncanny ability for numbers. Can guesstimate distances, trajectory and angle of bullets pretty accurately.

While direct combat is far from FL's forte, if need be he carries a pair of Beretta Model 12 submachine guns beneath his jacket. He's a terrible shot, but with enough bullets, you're bound to hit something eventually. If given time to prepare for a heavy engagement, he will opt for an M4 carbine with a double drum magazine, and an under-barrel grenade launcher. He also seems inordinately fond of chainsaws.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ec008c"">Biography</font></span>
 
Born before the advent of the Black Gale, Francisco was not a terribly unusual teenage boy. Born in Mexico City but raised in San Antonio, he got good grades, hung out with his friends, and generally enjoyed his youth. Such pastimes as soccer, comic books, online video games, model guns, airsoft fights, and dirt bike racing filled these sunny days. Francisco's father was an esteemed scientist, and a high-profile member of the global community of robotics engineers. In his earlier years, Dr. Leandro was a pioneer in such technologies now taken for granted, such as advanced prostheses and servantile androids. Chico (as his father called him) took after his old man in learning how to engineer and program computers, a skill at which he was proving to be quite adept.

However, with the Black Gale came a reckoning. Many people suffered in the earliest years of the merging of worlds. Many of the rich and famous were able to protect themselves with their wealth and resources, but fate plays no favorites. In the shelter that his father had procured for Chico and his mother, a monster fell from the sky, spawned completely at random by the Black Gale. Many died within the shelter, its walls making it a trap for its inhabitants. Among them were Francisco and his mother, Dr. Leandro spared as he installed prostheses onto refugees in a camp a five-hundred miles away.

Maddened by grief, Dr. Leandros threw away his profession and sought to right his perceived wrong, using the very forces that had taken his son from him. He ventured into Lucis and spent nearly twenty years scouring the land, searching for dark sources of power that could restore life to the dead. He eventually stumbled upon a cabal of necromancers who were willing to help him, for a cost, but they required two things: a body, as Chico's own had long rotted away, and a soul, to pay for the toll across the River. As a roboticist, the solution for the former was obvious to Dr. Leandro. As his last work as an engineer, he made an android body for Francisco, but could not bring himself to sculpt his son's face onto it. With this insane masterpiece in tow, he returned to the necromancers. The second component was also obvious, he would offer his own soul.

The ritual went smoothly, and all went as the necromancers promised. Dr. Leandro had given them the gold they asked for, and though he was dead before he could see it, his son had returned to the living world. Only rather than a teenage boy, full of life and vigor, he was a Wraith, a half-mad ghost, bound to a mechanical doll. Made uncomfortable by his own name, Francisco took up his online handle, Frontal Lobe, and decided to spend his new life as a Gatekeeper, seeking to save lives with the life his father gave back to him.
  
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ec008c"">Personality</font></span>
 
After his ""return,"" FL is... notably different. Almost two decades spent ""down below"" does strange things to a person. As such, FL is full of bizarre quirks and non-sequiturs. Socially inappropriate at the best of times, he's still re-adjusting to how sensitive living people are. His sense of humor is pitch-black, and he has an unsettling fascination with tools of war, malicious computer code, and the glitch-hop techno genre. His usual emotion is a strange, morbid cheerfulness, and only seems to diverge into a more energetic, excitable version of the same emotion, or a solemn, stoic ""offline mode."" Despite his creepiness, FL really isn't a bad guy. His desire to be a Gatekeeper is out of a genuine desire to help people, and he's surprisingly pacifistic for someone that carries military-grade weaponry around with them.

If it is damaged, his presence in the living world lessens; his powers lose their magnitude, and his senses dull to the world around him. If ever completely destroyed, FL's presence in the waking world would be in serious jeopardy. He can remain in the living world on his own power alone for a few hours at best before he is forcefully pulled back into the underworld. Whatever lurks down there, it doesn't take kindly to anything that leaves and comes back.

That said, FL's body is really nothing special. While somewhat electromagnetically shielded and waterproof, any serious EMP attacks, heavy precipitation or submersion, or highly inclement weather will severely damage his body. While as mobile as the average human, FL's body wasn't made for acrobatics, and anything more athletic than running or jumping will either disrupt his gyrometers or screw up his joints. Dirt and dust also damage him over time, and he requires fairly frequent maintenance to stay limber. His lithium-alloy battery is fairly strong, but under average conditions requires a three-hour charge every two days.

As a Wraith, FL is sensitive to spiritual disturbances, and anything that can harm a soul or common spirit can harm him. The rules he abides to as a Wraith are more metaphysical than physical, as he can pass through a wall, but not a wall of fire. He can't travel more than several meters beyond his body, and he can't enter any consecrated area, nor bypass spiritual wards or barriers. When active outisde of his body, the mechanical form becomes inert, and he is unable to physically interact with the living world without his Manifestations, and cannot communicate with anyone that is not sensitive to spiritual entities. Any electronics that he attempts to spiritually interface with must be in direct contact with his body. Over-expenditure of his ghastly powers requires him to replenish the plasm in his body in dark places where the energies of death gather.
 
<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ec008c"">Skills/Abilities/Traits</font></span>
 
FL's abilities are trifold: those as a robot, those as a ghost, and those as a ghost inside of a robot.

Despite the shortcomings of FL's body, it does confer a number of advantages over the usual, fleshy variety. Its titanium frame is quite resistant to being bent and dented, and is fairly lightweight. His android musculature makes him surprisingly strong, as he can effectively lift 300 kilograms over his head, and his grip could break a person's hand if he chose to. His limbs and digits are both quick and precise, allowing him to be perfectly delicate when the situation calls for it. Though its sensory systems are redundant, FL can use them to record his experiences as standard-encoded video, and he is equipped with both a geiger counter and an air-toxicity meter. He also picks up wifi. Don't try to give him a virus, though. The last guy that tried ended up stuffed inside of his own dakimakura. Yeah, I read about that on Anime News Network.

As a Wraith, FL can leave his body within a certain range. His plasmic body is invisible and incorporeal, able to pass through most solid objects, and detectable by most only as a chill in the air. He can see other ghosts and similar entities, can instinctively tell if a being is dead, living, or somewhere between, and can sense concentrations of deathly energy. FL's manifestations are fairly simple ones. He can project a limited telekinetic force over an area about the size of a room, strong enough to make small objects fly about erratically or make larger ones drift lazily through the air. Not a precise nor powerful ability, but a useful one none the less. His more effective ability is that to enter the dreams of those in REM sleep, and either commune with them, delve into their psyche for information, or twist their dreams to his liking. By expending the plasm of his body, he can incur ""waking nightmares,"" essentially illusions that vary in intensity. The least most are simple distortions of perceived reality, shifting shadows and subtle whispers and the like. The stronger phantasms are chthonic beasts and aberrations wrought into reality by the target's self-destructive subconscious. While they cannot incur any physical harm to a subject, it is said that ""the mind makes it real,"" and a severely tormented target could work themselves into a cardiac arrest under highly unfavorable conditions.

Lastly, FL can enter and manipulate mechanical and electronic systems, much the same as he manipulates his own body. If a device is powered by electricity and his body is in contact with it, FL can possess it. While he cannot make an object do anything it was not built or programmed to, he can utilize any of a device's features, access any data stored within it, or overload the device to destroy it or cause it to malfunction. He can easily spread between computers via local area networks, and can enter nearly any system in a building through its power supply. Antivirus programs or firewalls are no obstacle for him, as he manipulates the solid systems of the machine to do his bidding. That said, he has yet to attempt to enter the World Wide Web, as he has no idea what the result would be.

A few of FL's mortal skills still remain. He's a decently skilled programmer and mundane hacker, and easily knows his way around the inside of a computer or simple android. He knows quite a bit about guns and how to properly fire and maintain them, and he's damnably good at first-person-shooter video games.

<span class=""bb-b""><font color=""#ec008c"">Other</font></span>
 
FL's ""face"" is an LCD screen that can display essentially anything FL chooses to, though if he's not thinking about it, its ""default"" <a href=""https://38.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mavykiJiY61r7xtgbo1_r1_500.gif"">display</a> is a shifting display of patterns and colors.

FL is rather private about his condition and circumstances, and as such, his status as a Wraith in a mechanical body is not common knowledge. Many believe him to be an advanced AI, or some manner of highly advanced golem. Even fewer know what the initials ""F.L."" actually stand for.</div>"

They are controlled using stimuli from his modified brain or preset commands in response to specific scenarios, acting somewhat like an artificial nervous system. Or, perhaps, a hivemind. These nanobots, shielded against EMPs, are rather versatile in potential applications, although Francois has yet to figure out how to max out their capacities internally or if it's possible to manipulate them externally. Currently the nanobots are used by Francois as a means to passively augment his capabilities beyond human limits and grant himself a strong healing factor. Furthermore, optimization of chemical input results in a hyperactive metabolism of sorts. Not enough to get healed by eating, but enough to purge negative chemicals from his system. Any destroyed or otherwise inactive nanobots are used as materials to make more bots, and any that find themselves separated from the majority will attempt to return to the host. If no command input is received from the vessel, they will execute only repair and disease suppression functions.

Currently, Francois physical attribute augmentations max out at punching through a concrete wall; running 40 km/h, peaking at a 50 km/h sprint; jumping up to 3 meters with a running start, 2 meters otherwise; and reacting at peak human levels.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-u""><span class=""bb-b"">Biography</span></span>
The sole success in a series of biological-nanotechnology experiments conducted by the American branch of an international scientific think tank. The intent of the American branch's experiments were to develop nanomachines and test their viability in various fields. However, while they did succeed in inventing adequate nanomachines, they were faced with the problem that they were essentially useless without a human operator, and even they had yet to find an individual who could serve as such without violent rejection of the body. So the call was sent out. If you wanted to become a test subject and get paid for your contributions to science, they were willing to take you in. A native Parisian born to a destitute family, Francois was sold off to the French branch of this organization in exchange for the pension, and subsequently shipped to the aforementioned American branch to partake as a subject of these experiments. Fortunately, unlike his predecessors, Francois survived due to the unusual properties of his body and was essentially raised by the scientists who had taken him in from then on. Unfortunately after numerous instances of trial and error, the scientists found that external control was a nonviable goal even after waiting a few years to see if his growth correlated with control of nanobots. As this resulted in the knowledge that nanomachines were suitable only for reinforcing the capabilities of a human, they adjusted the parameters of the experiments to a more militaristic goal: creating a super soldier, preferably one that could surpass the power armored units being trained by the military. His purpose for joining the Academy to become a Gatekeeper is twofold: 1) refine and put his combat skills to work, and 2) use those skills to make both worlds a better place.

<span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">Personality</span></span>
A chipper young man, albeit an overly casual one that doesn't much understand common adolescent social cues or terminology due to an upbringing of interacting solely with overly professional scientists at least twice his age. Although Francois hasn't much had many - or really any - friends around his age growing up, he cherishes and appreciates the ones he has, even if they don't reciprocate his feelings. He's rather selfish in that sense, a clingy person who grows too attached to his friends and is willing to take on any risk or extreme length to keep them safe and keep them there with him. On a somewhat related note, Francois is a very reliable individual, typically willing to help out simply because it would make him ""useful"". This trait, as well as his self-worth issues, both likely arise from being sold by his parents for a government pension.

Specifically his brain has been compartmentalized into five divisions, each essentially functioning as five different brains working in unison. The primary three are responsible for neurological processing of nanorobotic functions, anatomical functions, and mental/knowledge-based functions, respectively, while the final two are spares for whatever that the primary three can't be bothered to process. 

In addition to their parallel processing, these partitions allow for a greater memory capacity, giving Francois a knack for analyzing and memorizing all sorts of information. Typically this is blueprints, recipes, instruction manuals, textbooks, and other guides. He's also very proficient in math.

On a side note, divisions can be temporarily shutdown and separated from the network, their resources reallocated to one of the spares. Though <span class=""bb-i"">why</span> one would want to do that is unknown.</div></div>

<span class=""bb-i"">”So this was the resolution everybody had fought for?  This was it?”</span> The snow-white haired girl thought to herself as she hunched over a corpse.  Knee deep in a landscape void of life, all that surrounded her was the decrepit remains of what used to be reality.  The sky itself, once cyanic, was dyed a dark hue of red, perforated by two suns brilliantly burning away.  Sure, the second war had ended.  But rather than celebrations and exchanging of gifts, instead only lied nothingness.  Both sides had reaped what they intentionally sewed into the heart of both of their worlds.  The seeds of destruction which they had so eagerly planted now branched out and bridged the gap between the avant-garde and archaic realities, though not in the calm demeanor most had hoped for.  The two ends brought about their own demise without even realizing it.  And at the center of it was her.  This lone, shattered soul of a girl, leaning over the corpses of those which she used to call brothers and sisters, yet they had passed on whilst she survived.  She was granted control of the tide of events, but had no idea how to wield such power and brought about armageddon.  This was not the requiem she had planned for, nor one she had wanted.  She truly wished for a happy ending, with smiles on everyones faces and a cease fire written in fine print.  Maybe they could have rebuilt the academy?  How long ago was she a student there?  A year?  The war had distorted her concept of time and had dulled its blade. Regardless, hours, minutes, and seconds no longer bore meaning without anybody to abide by such increments.  

And then it hit her.  She was the deity which controlled this world, she had her fingertips right on the control panel of reality.  The girl refused to be the keystone piece in this contorted manifestation.  She had the power to revert everything back to square one, to reset the actors on stage.  But some would have to be removed, as they played major parts in the series of unfortunate events.  Others would find themselves reliving the same days without any recollection of the first iteration.  And where would she be?  The girl honestly believed that she herself should be cut out of the future equation.  It was the only viable option.  Before she knew it, the world began to fade away, and with it she took one last glance at her comrades.  Their eyes remained shut, as if they were lost in a peaceful sleep, soon to awaken.  Well, soon they would stir again.  The fate of the second chance lied in their hands alone.

A rift in space-time known as the Black Gale opened up, connecting the worlds of Earth and Lucis with an undisclosed (but absurdly large) amount of unexplored, monster-filled wilderness. That was twenty years ago, and while the situation in the Black Gale hasn't changed much, peace has been fostered between the two worlds. Today is January 8th. Three days ago a raven bearing a letter arrived, declaring that you had been selected to enroll one of many institutions dedicated to combat the threats posed by the labyrinths and wildlife in the Black Gale, as well as those posed by the two worlds themselves - an academy. And not just any academy, but the Academy of the Arcane Artes, one of the greatest and most renowned academies in both worlds. And you were one of the lucky elite chosen to attend this prestigious academy.

Did you accept the offer? Hell yeah you did!

And that was how you found yourself waking up bright and early (or perhaps staying up mind-bogglingly late), packing your bags, saying your good-byes to whatever friends or family you may have (or not!), and waiting outside your dark cave/quaint countryside hamlet/massive estate/cheap apartment/ludicrously expensive condo/etc for the arrival of a magical lion-eagle. 

Lo and behold, there they arrived, descending from the heavens like angels from on high. Fur and feather gleamed in the light of the relevant celestial body as the majestic creature settled upon the ground. It was alone, saddle empty, waiting for its designated rider. You mount the beast, tentatively, aggressively, or otherwise - it does not matter. From there you take to the sky, heading towards the Black Gale, that giant tear in space over there, at speeds that violated every traffic law on Earth and then some. 

But soon after you see it on the distant horizon: the Academy of the Arcane Artes. Or perhaps you don't, since you're clinging so damn hard to your griffin. Eventually you land, the sound of griffin's talons upon pavement. It was a miracle you didn't die or anything. That sure would've been inconvenient, huh? But that doesn't matter! You made it! 

Now welcome to the Academy of the Arcane Artes, bitches students. Enjoy your stay.

<span class=""bb-b"">8th of February/2066</span>

Varren’s eyes shot open as he gasped for air.  In a hurried fashion, the boy flung himself forward out of surprise and fear of what he had experienced during his slumber.  Only if he had realized a few moments earlier the point where bed ran out in stock, and all that could be sold was the cold hard floor.  Yes, the boy truly paid the price of haphazardness, landing face first into the wooden surface while armed with only a pair of boxers to shield his shattered pride.  The boy was left to pout in shambles until the sun had slithered its way through his windows, on a one-way course into his eyes.  This was usually how Varren’s mornings started.  An ebullient boy repetitively rolling on the floor, ensuing phrases which a nine year old would rate as <span class=""bb-i"">’potty mouth’</span>.  Sure, the guy definitely had the pitch down pat.  Most of these perilous mornings were spurred by nightmares, such as flashing images of coffee cups being smashes or the internet being shut down worldwide.  But this particular dream which had rudely stirred him from his sleep was more unique than the rest.  Varren himself was in it, yet his hair was an entirely different shade.  It mostly consisted of hazy scenes, unclear and undeveloped, kind of like his brother’s tastes in fine weaponry.  

Anyways, Varren decided he was done squandering precious time and quickly dressed himself.  The cyanic tie contrasted nicely with the shades of his cerulean hair.  <span class=""bb-i"">”Wait a moment.  Uniform?  Who placed this here?  Did one of the maids want me to cosplay this badly?”</span> The boy’s eyes darted between the vacant clothes hanger and the pristine uniform he was now draped in.  It took a few moments for a connection to surge in that whimsical brain of his.  He snapped his fingers out of realization, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”Yes!  First day of school!  Wonder if Nii-chan is awake yet?”</span></span> Varren was half tempted to burst in his brother’s room and pounce on the guy’s bed until he awakened, yet the boy wasn’t deadset on receiving a wallop to the face on day one.  Regardless, that room hadn’t been occupied for a few years.  He proceeded with morning stretches before eyeing the two travel cases lying near his door.  Surely one of the butlers had snuck in during his sleep and packed away his belongings.  <span class=""bb-i"">”I swear, if they misplaced one bullet, I’ll…!”</span> Yet Varren couldn’t think of a threat to cast upon the random employee, yet a punishment of sorts was surely in order.  He made his way over to his night table and swiftly swiped at a device which firmly fit around his wrist.  With a few pecks at its LED screen, a small hologram was produced before him.  The boy skimmed through contacts blindly.  Literally; he had his eyes glued shut as he scrolled through the list, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">“Eeny, meeny, miney, moe heroine!”</span></span>  The boy plunged his jutted finger against a random name, and requested that his cases were to be brought to the front gate.  He would have gladly lugged his belongings down the steps, yet given his frail figure, such a journey would only end in disaster.

After pouring himself the last cup of coffee he would enjoy in the Yinyues household for a while, he proceeded to the front door where he was met by a woman.  Unlike her son’s more colorful hair, her’s was a monotonous raven black.  The woman looked like an iconic business official, dressed in finely spun clothing, as well as appearing half her actual age.  His mother was twirling something around her finger when she laid her eyes upon the boy.  Her expression lit up with a mixture of approval yet remorse.  She let out a sigh and caught the gun my the grip, took a few paces towards Varren, then held the magazine port towards him.  The boy cautiously and slowly attempted to grab the pistol, but the woman moved her hand back with every advance he made.  

After a few tries at seizing the sidearm, Varren began to frantically reach for the gun with flailing arms, yet it was only in vain.  His mother was able to hold the boy back by his face, her hand gripping around the rim of his head as he continued his futile quest.  She shook her head and released the boy from her bear grip, then quickly wrapped her arms around his timid figure, <span class=""bb-b"">”Dear god, boy.  You weren’t even able to grab a handgun from your aging mother.  How do you expect to fight monsters with that kind of strength.”</span> She chuckled as she wrapped her son’s fingers around the pistol, <span class=""bb-b"">”It’s a White Wolf machine pistol.  Fires an AP 5.8x30mm round.  Look, even the ejection plate has grooves in it~!  You can use it to beat a foe to a pulp if you run out of bullets.  Although…”</span> Her voice drifted off as she squeezed Varren’s biceps, instantaneously losing all hope in the continuation of her sentence.  <span class=""bb-b"">”Anyways, I wish you luck, my boy.  Make the Yinyues house proud, and forge another title for Magpul.  Also, tell your brother I said hello, remind him that he has to turn in this month’s rent before he leaves.”</span> 

With that, she patted the boy on the back and sent him flying through the doorstep.  If Varren hadn’t mastered the otherworldly physics of coffee, he may have had been in a mess of third degree burns.  The snow wouldn’t have helped much, either.  The boy shivered when he was suddenly exposed to the ruthless climate change.  It seemed odd, starting the school year in the midst of winter.  What was even more disconcerting was the griffin waiting at the front of his ga-

<span class=""bb-i"">”Wait a second.  Something isn’t right here… Let’s see… Snow isn’t yellow… My scarf is on firmly… Coffee isn’t spi- by the caffeinated deities there’s a griffin right in front of me.”</span> The boy felt sufficed with listing the creature as a figment of his imagination.  To test his hypothesis, he reached an outstretched arm towards the beast’s hide and poked it.  Instantly the collage of animals sprung into action, swiping at the ground under Varren, then propelling him into the air.  All the boy could sneak out was a befuddled, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-i"">”What…?’</span></span>, before he landed on the creature’s back.  The griffin stuck its talons, with awe-inducing finesse mind you, around the handles of his travel cases.  It then rose onto its hind legs and propelled itself off the ground, beads of water flew out of Varren’s sockets as they soared through the frigid air.  Usually these things were outfitted with riding harnesses, yet the academy must have forgotten to dispatch this individual with one.  All he could do was hold onto dear life, and prayed that his heart didn’t shrink as fast as his manh- Gracefully soaring through the air, Yinyues couldn’t help but to shiver as he felt the cold air brush against his uniform. ”It is winter after all… I should have worn a sweater or something.” He mumbled as he clung closer to the griffin, hoping to grasp onto a portion of its warmth. The warm-blooded beast was bred to endure such conditions with flying colors, covered in a coat of feathers which held in every bit of heat. He lowered his forehead in between its scapula, resting his tired mind as they advanced to their destination. The boy closed his eyes and attempted to find respite in the hectic turn of events.  He listened to the rhythmic flapping of the griffin's wings as he mentally composed his will.  

Yet all of a sudden, his ears picked up more sets flying creatures.  He glanced to his side, it took a few moments before a belated startled reaction came into fruition.  Other beasts of the sky were beginning to fall into formation, each bearing their own student expressing varying complexions.  Hell, one blonde was even riding the griffin as if she was the pilot.  This was definitely more exhilarating than the uneventful school bus rides he committed to in the past.  The boy’s eyes darted to the humongous portal before them.  The break in the sky was consuming griffins like they were snacks, inhaling them en mass.  It was at this point that Varren realized that he was face to face with the Black Gale.  The very cause of the great reformations the whole entire world had to undergo decades ago.  The grip on the griffin’s feathers tightened as he was suddenly consumed by a blinding light, unsure of what lied on the other side.</div>"

""<font color=""#fff79a"">Well...this is definitely new</font>"" Mathew mused as he rode atop the Griffin that had more or less kidnapped him. ""<font color=""#fff79a"">And to think, yesterday was just so normal. I wonder if this is any indication of thing to come</font>"". While he did know that he was going to be attending the Academy of the Arcane Artes, he didn't expect this kind of a ride there. Hell, he thought he was being abducted at first. Of course, there were clues that he was able to use to sleuth out the truth; like the uniform

<span class=""bb-i"">""<font color=""#fff79a"">This...this wasn't here before. Mother, did you put this outfit in my room!?</font>""

""Hmm? What outfit sweetie?""

""<font color=""#fff79a"">Wait, if it wasn't you...then. Someone's broken into our home</font>""

""Mathew dear, what were you talking about-MATHEW HOMES! What are you doing!?

""<font color=""#fff79a"">Someone has invade our home mother! I'll be damned if I let them kill the two of us and pull our horns out of our corpses!</font>""

""Mathew. Mathew sweetie, just calm down""

""<font color=""#fff79a"">I will not! The day I've feared my whole life has finally come, I will not just sit back and let them take us!</font>""

""Sweetie I understand you're scared, but there's no need to-THE SOLAR GUN! Why is that even in your room!?""

""<font color=""#fff79a"">Because I knew this day would come, so I prepared myself</font>""

""Henry! Your son has the Solar Gun! He thinks someone's broken into the house and he's in one of his moods!""

""<font color=""#fff79a"">This is not a mood mother!</font>""

""HE'S WHAT!?""</span>

...yeah, that could have gone better. ""<font color=""#fff79a"">I swear, that was intentional. They just left the uniform in my room without warning just to get a reaction out of me. I simply can't believe this; my first day of school, and the staff causes me to nearly blow a few holes in my own home. Whoever is in charge of distributing uniforms should be fired. Don't you think so Muffins?</font>"" he asked the Griffin that he had named not too long ago. The Griffin responded with silence ""<font color=""#fff79a"">well I think that's a bit much. Plus, I don't think they make wood chippers big enough</font>"" Mathew replied. The Griffin once again failed to make any sort of sound that could be taken as a reply of any kind ""<font color=""#fff79a"">well if the wood chipper was too much, then a Bagger 288 is far beyond reasonable. I'm honestly surprised to hear that you even know about it</font>"" more silence from the Griffin ""<font color=""#fff79a"">no, of course not! I simply didn't expect anyone from Lucis not involved in engineering to know about an obscure piece of Earth technology. The only reason I know about it is...well...when a Bagger 288 nearly run over your home, it makes one want to learn more about it</font>"" Griffin silence ""<font color=""#fff79a"">I wish. Some maniac got one of those metal behemoths and nearly destroyed my entire town. Lucky for us, the Bagger 288 is a mining vehicle, and therefor doesn't have much in the way of self defensive weaponry.</font>"" Even more Griffin silence ""has a<font color=""#fff79a"">nyone ever told you that you're a fascinating conversationalist?</font>""</div>"

<font color=""#00a651"">""Waiting... The insufferable waiting.""</font> Ralthavar stood in front of a large horde of orcs. At least a thirty strong, with families and relatives to see them off. They looked less like students and more like a warband; each was armed to the teeth with weapons, no less than at least three and Ralthavar had four. It was quiet, eerily so. Normally such a gathering would have music and some festivities, but this one was full of anticipation, as though they were warriors on the front line, waiting for the cavalry charge. Some orcs were eating, speaking to each other, or even resting up. But Ralthavar simply stood looking towards the horizon searching for the sign of their ride. Soon a elvish woman came up to Rathavar and hugged her, nuzzling her cheek.

""My son, promise that you'll be good? I know that there is a lot of responsibility on your shoulders, but I also know you're strong enough to handle it. Make sure you write back to us too, alright? I want to know how you're doing!"" Rathavar said nothing but smiled as his mother coddled him. His father stepped up, his arms crossed with a stern look on his face. But he cracked a smile, showing that he wasn't entirely serious. ""And remember, this isn't a raid. Fighting shouldn't be all you're doing. We want you to make friends outside of the orcs, more so with these... Earthlings. The Harmonious Act may have improved relations for us here, but make sure that you give a good impression for the earthlings, understand my son?""

<font color=""#00a651"">""I know father. I will do my best, and than some.""</font> Rathavar said quietly. His father came to him and hugged, as did Rathavar's mother. Their warm bodies were a comforting feel in the frigid weather. Soon a noise pierced the air. <font color=""#00a651"">""They're here...""</font>

Griffins from the academy arrived in swarm. A quick counter would notice there were exactly 100 griffins. While thirty flew in the orc's direction, the others scattered not too far away, to pick up others who were part of the Harmonious First. Ralthavar and his orcs were merely a part (Albeit a large one) of the organization which came together to foster friendlier relationships with one another. With final farewells, the young orcs gathered their equipment and supplies before gathering into a semi-organized formation. Rathavar was at the head of this formation. Though not the largest of the orcs, his presence was abundantly more noticeable than anyone else. Soon the griffins landed in front of the horde of orcs and watched them expectantly. There was silence. And than Rathavar spoke. <font color=""#00a651"">""Mount your griffins! Wait for my call and we ride!""</font>

The orcs moved in to find a griffin for themselves. Rathavar was the first to pick, and he chose a particular griffin with golden-blond feathers. He'd need to be distinct if he wants his orcs to be able to follow him, unaware that the griffins would lead them to school well enough on their own. <font color=""#00a651"">""Sound off! I want to make sure everyone is here, and each of you are prepared for what we are about to do. This is a war that no have ever fought. A battle that we have the honor of tasting first. This, is a diplomatic mission! We must show the Earthlings our strength, and in turn, find what makes them worthy of our strength! We lead a new generation of orcs, a generation that no longer needs to eek out an existence against hostile forces. We have begun our golden age, where the rift between worlds have been torn asunder just for us! So let us go, and face these earthlings head on! We will take their knowledge, absorb their powers, and bring it back to our home and our people. We are orcs! We live, we strive, and we are victorious! NOW SOUND OFF!""</font>

Rathavar had his griffin take the the skies first, followed by the hundred of other orcs trailing behind him. They circled the skies a few times to ensure that everyone was off the ground, and for one final farewell to the lands of Lucis and the country of Malakaus. The orcs in the skies and the orcs on the land had only one last thing to say before they were off. And it was quite audible.

<font color=""#00a651"">""WAAARGH!""</font>

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Rei Maven</div></div>

The smell of honey-roasted almonds wafted through the air. Not the most aromatic incense, but it did it's job to cover up the scent of last night. Strewn around the room were exhausted bodies of party goers in various state of undress, and laying on top of the pile was Rei. She was stark nude save for a few accessories she wore for the purpose of entertaining others long through the night, none of whom were awake to be a bother. Rei looked around in a daze wondering what time it was. Early morning from the chill in the air. Today was the big day; she'd finally get out of Lucis and explore the predominately human world for once. She had heard many, many tales of the place, but it was only today that she would actually see it herself. Carefully making her way off the pile of lovers Rei walked off to a room to clean herself.

Rei was within a large mansion where she held a party in her honor. She had been masquerading as a mistress of a orcish warlord, using his funds to throw decedent parties under the guise of diplomatic meetings. It was quite easy to convince the green-skinned monster men to hand their fortunes to her with false promises of improving their standing amongst the other races. Though she supposed her antics did make her warlord somewhat more likeable by more... Lavish folk.

Stepping into a wash room Rei activated some of the magical runes placed around. One created heat, while another produced water. This water was poured into a brass tub with a cork plugging the drain. Placing the heating rune into the tub while the water ran, she stepped inside and shivered. <span class=""bb-b"">""The water is still cold...""</span> As she waited for the water to fill and heat she went over to a mirror built into the wall. She looked at her body, admiring it's form. Elves were so lithe and alluring, but a bit too thin for her taste. She liked a bit of meat on her bones, rather than the form of a starved beggar. Rei than proceeded to change into various forms, male and female, human, elvish, monstrous, demonic, angelic, mythical, and grotesque. But in the end she settled for her true form; a pale, white haired hermaphrodite. She giggled at the sight of her supple phallus hanging beneath her thighs. She gave it a gentle stroke before turning to her bath.

Washing herself thoroughly, in every orifice and curvature, Rei emerged from her washroom smelling of lavender. Her guest were still fallen in her main room, but a few maids had come out to help clean. Taking a whiff Rei could smell the lust wafting through the air, but also... Purity. Or maybe that was just the soap. Either way, Rei was hungry, but not for breakfast. She approached one of the maids as she was putting clothing into a basket. <span class=""bb-b"">""Excuse me...""</span> Rei called out to the maid, and when she turned to face the succubi she yelped in surprise. Rei was still in the nude. <span class=""bb-b"">""My my, are you my morning's entertainment?""</span>

The maid attempted to redirect her eyes, but Rei could see her struggling. The young maid has never seen a sight like Rei before, and she was tempted to gaze further. ""C-c-certainly not, kind... sir? I am here but to clean your chambers."" A soft laugh escaped Rei's lips as she approached nearer to the maid, her hips swinging, and as well as other things. <span class=""bb-b"">""Is that all you have come here for, little one? My chambers?""</span> The maid closed her eyes tightly but still directed her head towards her feet in a vain attempt to not leer at Rei. This both amused and disappointment the succubi who crept ever so closer. ""I have no idea what it is you imply, master.... I am but a poor and humble maid."" The maid said weakly. Rei could hear the hesitation and doubt in her voice. The maid wanted so much more, this she knew. <span class=""bb-b"">""So you are, my dumpling. And a good one at that. Such strong hands and shapely body.""</span> This time the maid blushed and allowed a bit of laughter to escape her voice, both embarrassed and pleased at the compliment. ""You embarrass me, master!"" That was when Rei struck, caressing the maid's chin into her hands so that Rei could gaze into her eyes. <span class=""bb-b"">""Fear not. You are safe here with me.""</span>

The maid started to stammer now and weakly tried to escape Rei's grasp, but was memorized with Rei's eyes. ""I... I must finish my cleaning, master. The mistress will have my head if I do not!"" Rei remembered than that she was not taking the form of the Elven mistress that the maid was referring to, but despite that she knew the maid would be safe. After all, Rei had no hard feelings for the maid. Not yet... It was than that Rei giggled and pulled the maid into a near by broom closet, where only their voices could be heard.

<span class=""bb-b"">""Cleaning, eh? I have something for you. Here, polish my blade.""</span>

""But it is huge! It could take me all morning!""

<span class=""bb-b"">""Plenty of time, my dear. Plenty of time.""</span>

Sometime later, which hardly took the whole morning, Rei had emerged from her mansion estate wearing somewhat appropriate attire. At the very least she covered her genitalia, but still looked skimpy. It was obvious from her attire she intended to garner attention through her appearance. She would have waited for her guests to awaken and see her off, but the griffon would arrive so. It mattered very little to her; she made it known to them that she would likely be gone before most of them would have awoken. They would be taken care of nonetheless, and Rei had all she needed anyways. Looking into the skies she could see the lion-eagle come her way, and she sat there waiting for it. When it landed it looked at Rei who blew it a kiss. It seemed unaffected, though it had a much more physical reaction when, as she loaded her luggage onto the griffin, she chose to fondle it near it's own gender identification. It squawked and nearly kicked her, but Rei anticipated it and avoided the blow. <span class=""bb-b"">""Come now, let's be off.""</span> Straddling the majestic beast Rei said no more as she and the beast took to the skies and flew towards the Black Gale. Not the largest hole she ever entered, but a virgin to her nonetheless.</div>"

<span class=""bb-i"">Khayal</span> sat in pieces before Zar, a component in her hand and a cloth in the other as she cleaned her beloved weapon. Suitcases sat beside the table, her modified school uniform among the items. The base was quiet, the snow outside absorbing all sound. Her golden brown eyes would occasionally flicker to the window—this was silly of her, of course, because she wouldn’t see the griffin before its presence was announced. Especially in the dark. Still, she was eager to return to the Academy and she kept her eyes and ears open.

 Zarbaha Umar would be entering the Academy for her fifth year, so her break was spent in the field with other Gatekeepers to be. She had spent her time over the last few months putting to use the technical knowledge received at the Academy and developing it beyond the textbooks. She was ready to show off her strength as a graduating student and become a Gatekeeper. 

Finally, the monitor beside her figure came to life, a woman’s face looking through the screen. “Umar, your…escort to the Academy has arrived.” 

Zar’s heart skipped a beat in excitement, but she remained passive in expression and tone. “Thank you,” she spoke clearly through her accent, one that has grown through multiple languages and would be hard to properly distinguish its origin if not for her appearance. “I’ll be out in a moment.” She carefully set the cloth aside and cautiously, methodically put <span class=""bb-i"">Khayal</span> together piece by piece—until the monitor shut off and she rushed to put her weapon back together, a smile coming to her face. 

Once fully assembled, she pressed a button and watched as the large rifle shifted into a polearm: a glaive. Satisfied, she slung the weapon over her back and piled her bags on after. Zar took a final glance around the small room she had called home for a while; on her departure, it looked so bare. It lacked personality. And that was fine with her. Zar turned her back on the room and headed for the exit. It was still the middle of the night where she was stationed and most of the personal was still asleep. She had said her goodbyes when the sun was still up and had gotten a couple hours of sleep before waking up to prepare for the ride. 

“Hello, lovely,” Zar greeted the griffin, who puffed up at the given compliment as she stepped into the cold. She set her bags in the snow and adjusted the strap on her chest and then her headdress (she had lost it her first year, not prepared for the speed at which these beasts could fly).  Zar rose a hand to groom back the feathers on his head before hopping gracefully onto his back. “Ready when you are,” she said as she latched herself onto the griffin’s warmth.

Its claws gripped her bags, and the beast let out a warning caw. And then they were off. 

The cold stung at Zar’s face, but she forced herself to watch the sky as they rose. Her eyes narrowed and watered thanks to the speed, but she loved the ride. The beating of the griffin’s wings echoed in her eardrums, and suddenly there were more. Sure enough, when she turned her head to look around, other students were riding on their own griffins. Zar couldn’t help the large, white grin on her face; the experience was exhilarating every time. 

Suddenly, the sky shifted to a bright white and she knew that beyond this would be the Academy. 

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Dagny</div></div>
 “Yah-hooooooo, mother fuckers!” Dagny’s voice interrupted the beating of the dozens of wings as the beasts and riders were sucked into the portal connecting Earth to the Black Gale. Her griffin was particularly large, speaking volumes about the weight compacted into her muscular build. Clearly, the woman liked to fly, but it was only during the school year was she able to ride so <span class=""bb-i"">fast</span>. 

Her initial departure had been far less dramatic…

<div class=""bb-center"">☼☼☼</div>
“When’s it gonna get here?” the young woman beside her asked between shivers. 

“Here” was a small house in the middle of a tundra. Dagny’s family home was terribly isolated from the rest of Sweden, Earth, and the only sign that there was life outside of the property was the road. The road, incidentally, was covered in snow and ice and therefore blended in with the rest of the landscape. As snow continued to fall, her luggage—only a couple bags—was becoming covered in it. Noticing this, the purple eyed woman brushed the powder off with a gloved hand.

“Whenever,” Dagny offered unhelpfully, placing her hands on her hips as she gazed up at the stars.

The two appeared to be different in every way: the woman was slim, dark skinned, and had dyed her hair blue to contrast her violet eyes. Dagny was bulky, pale, and blonde, her eyes a bright blue—though they looked far darker under the night sky. Not to mention the former was dressed in heavy, warm clothes and <span class=""bb-i"">still</span> shivered next to Dagny, who wore shorts and a tank top without so much as a goose bump.

Dagny spit some fire into the air, warming her companion for a brief moment. “Bet you can’t wait to get back to bed,” she teased. 

“I’m sorry we’re not all walking furnaces,” came the retort, the woman sticking her nose into the air. 

The dragon chuckled and opened her mouth to respond, but a screech broke the silence and the women looked up as a griffin fell from the sky. “Well, this is me,” Dagny stated casually. “See ya later.” She offered a wave as the griffon gathered up her things. Though the hand she waved with was grabbed and she was pulled back into a hug. The dragon girl felt her face flush red and she hesitantly hugged the other back.

“Write me or something,” the purple-eyed woman ordered as she pulled away to wink at the dragon. 

Dagny glanced away, then back, and nodded. “Y-yeah,” she responded as she cleared her throat, coughing up smoke. “I’ll do that.” And with that, she climbed onto the griffon and waved once more as they took off.</div>"

Morning preparations had never been a massive priority of 736's. The crack of dawn signaled little change in the isolated lab he called home. There was no need to make a bed. Flesh Golems do not sleep. There was no need to make breakfast. Flesh Golems do not eat. Hygene was of minimal concern. The caustic alchemical substances that spread their fumes through 736's bizzare, decrepit hovel made conventional bacteria a non issue. The building, the experiments and 736 himself eternally smelled of formaldahyde. There was little that could be done about it. 

In most cases, 736 wouldn't even notice the progression of the cycle of life outside. The sun rises, the sun sets, the people of the nearby villages wake up to whisper their gossip about the strange shack in the forrest that had been vacant for 3 years, but still belches forth a plume of smoke at seemingly random intervals. And 736 continued his studies. There were tests to run, books to read, notes to be organized, samples to be grown. There surely would not be enough hours in the day for him, had everything not seemed like one continuous day. 

That was not the case today. 736 remembered the event clearly. 72 hours prior, some sort of corvid had delivered to him a letter, informing him of a most fortuitous oportunity for further research and testing: enrolement in a program to train Gatekeepers. In his studies, the Gatekeepers had always caught 736's attention. They and they alone were the wardens of the Black Gale, a bridge between worlds, hosting strange fauna and governed by alien natural principals. 736 had a fair amount of academic knowledge in the way of psychology. Thus, he could identify his response to this prospect as ""excitement"".

736 had been cognisent of the fact that he could not transport all of his test subjects to the Academy with him. After being provided sufficient time to ponder, 736 determined that all that he really required were the basic supplies for testing: scalpels, microscopes, slides, etc. He would also need Blitzengiest, though 736 did not think of the amorphous green symbiote as luggage, or even a weapon. More of a pet, really. In all 6 years of his life, the curious little life form was the closest thing that 736 had ever had to a friend. Finally, 736 donned the cloak provided to him. 736's practical knowledge of society, limited though it may have been, made him aware that many of his peers would find the sight of a 2.5 meter tall, iron-studded mass of reanimated flesh disconcerting at best. Thus, he found it pertinent to obscure his rather aesthetically offputting form as best he could.

Leaving his abode for the first time in recent memory, 736 found himself face to face with a creature that resembled a mish-mash of parts almost as arbitrary as himself. The beast in question was none other than a griffon. 736 knew that the Academy, prestegious establishment that it was, would provide some form of lavish transportation. After resigning himself to the fact that no, he did not have time to perform behavioral tests on this rare and spectacular creature, 736 mounted the griffon with little hesitation. Tests had shown that Blitzengiest could become a servicable flight membrane, should the need arrise. And with that, the beast let out a screech and began to ascend.</div>"

Its color used to appease him when he was a younger child, but now the dark green color felt alien. After spending most of these last two years away from home, being back with his dad was very unnerving for him. The first day of school couldn't even compare to the feeling of anxiousness and alienation he felt at home the last couple of weeks. He even found it somewhat poetic, that the place he had spent most of his life felt so far away. Even though he was within its walls, he felt like they were almost like jail-cells. <span class=""bb-i"">Heh</span>. He laughed at himself for getting poetic and philosophical, that didn't occur too often. If anything, just the thought of poetry and philosophy was scary! Especially poetry! Gabriel struggled most with language based classes, and poetry always made things worse. It was like people would throw a wrench into the machinery known as a speech and everyone would look at it and call it art! But if you fucked up when you tossed your wrench, you'd be a cheesy fuck who needs to learn how to write properly. 

He turned onto his side. Now instead of looking at his ugly alienating ceiling, he would look at his ugly and disorganized wall. The wall was filled with bands from earth and lucis, as well as the letter he had received when they offered to let him into the school. It was also covered with his report cards and progress reports. Almost all of them were amazing, with a few spots of average here and there. Although his personality and actions would suggest otherwise, Gabriel tries. Gabriel tries <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> hard. He doesn't just want to be successful, he wants to be extraordinary! To put it into sports terms, he wants to be the Jordan that lifts off Nike through the roofs! He wants to be the one that goes down in the hall of fame. The gatekeeper people won't ever forget about. However, to do that he would need to perform actions that make him stand out in a good way! That is something he has to work on. 


<span class=""bb-i"">Pio! Pio! Pio!</span> the alarm rang out. The audio was distorted, and had been taken from an old Spanish song that taught kids the sounds animals make. He took clips of the little bird and had used that, it was very efficient. Using it would make sure Gabriel would get up and awake in ten seconds or less! Listening to it for anymore then that would be worse then getting beaten up or whipped. Anyhow, It was now <span class=""bb-i"">5:45</span> and it was time to get up! He took off his pajamas and threw them on the floor, he would be sure to pick them up after his shower. He needed to be clean first and foremost. Having hot water purify him through pain and pressure was always sure to yank him into consciousness. After a shower he was much more awake and alert than if he had just gotten ready and waited for his brain to sort itself out. Besides, morning showers are the best showers. He didn't feel at all comfortable letting himself wallow in his own filth for an entire night only to have to wait until the next night to clean it off again. 

Now it was time to get some food. Gabriel wandered back into his room, and threw his pajamas into a basket partially filled with other dirty clothes. He would be sure to do his laundry again at another time, but for now all he wanted to do was get dressed and fill his belly. Once he had finished putting on the school uniform, he went into his bathroom again to give himself a once-over. Everything seemed to fit well, and the armor cloak they gave him wasn't too heavy or too tight. <span class=""bb-i"">Why can't they put both the cloak and coat together?</span>. For the past two years he had decided to get the armor, and for the past two years he had asked that question. As per usual, the bathroom didn't answer him. Maybe it was cause it was too expensive? Because having both functions would make it too heavy? Either way, he double checked to make sure his clothes had Uriel written on it instead of Gabriel. And once again they did, which would make life hell of a lot easier. 

After he had finished his morning routine and was done checking himself out in the mirror, he meandered downstairs. He went straight to the kitchen, and gazed around the room, as well as into the rooms the kitchen were connected too. His dad wasn't there. <span class=""bb-i"">Couldn't stay home a little longer to send me off? Shit</span>. It was a bit sad for him to think about, but sometimes that is just how it is. He turned his attention to the table. On it was a store-bought card. <span class=""bb-i"">At least he was able to leave me a card. Lets see what kind of sentimental shit he wrote.</span> However, once the card was open, it was not what he had expected in the slightest. It had the design of some pink and orange cartoon styled girl with two wands and the caption <span class=""bb-i"">Wowza uza be five-za! Happy birthday my little princess!</span>. Gabriel cringed at the card and could barely find it within himself to open it, but curiosity to find out what was on the inside won out. The card, once opened, dropped a dollar bill to the group. Inside the note itself was a little message written from Gabriel's dad. 

<blockquote class=""bb-quote"">Hey Gabby! Or is it Urrie when its school related? I'm sorry I couldn't send you off on your big day, congrats again on becoming a 3rd year! I am absolutely sure you can make it all the way up to fifth. Also, I want to tell you that I am super proud to be your dad, and that once you make it to fourth year I'll have a gift ready for you, one that I am sure you will drool over!And,as a token of my sorrow for not being here today, I promise to increase your allowance for these next few months! But until then, I hope this can keep you over. 
 - xoxo Daddy. PS // If you do any drugs, either smoke them or drink them. Anything that leaves track marks or is snorted will fuck you up.</blockquote>

 Gabriel blushed throughout the whole letter. Rarely would Gabriel break composure, but whenever his dad called him by his nickname, it would always throw him off. Once the letter was done being read, he put it back on the table and grabbed the dollar and stuffed it into his pocket, it was time to eat. He poured himself a bowl of 'Sweetie-tetties crunch', an off brand cereal that was almost pure sugar and trash. With every bite he could almost feel some of his veins clog up and die. It was at times like these that Gabriel couldn't help but think of the one truth he had discovered, the truth that others could never handle to hear. The truth that Earth food, at its best, will never lose to Lucis'. Earth's cuisine was truly superior in almost every way, and that Lucis really needed to work on their preparation and selections if it wanted to stand a chance against earth. As of this moment they were like a small anemic child fighting against a robot who's weapon system was composed entirely of ballistic knives.  

Once he had finished his bowl of diabetes, he put the empty dish in the sink and rinsed it out. Usually he would just drop it in, but as a courtesy to his dad he would do it this once. After that was cleared up, and all the cereal and milk had been put back into their rightful places, he rushed upstairs. On his shelf, next to his most recent progress reports he had yet to pin up on his wall, was the bag of mayhem. He picked up the bag and attached it to the side of his pants, through a series of knots his father had taught him, it was possible to make the bag both easily accessible as well as difficult to remove. Once he made sure to bring his greatest asset, it was time to leave! 

After back-tracking through the house one more time, to make sure he was carrying everything necessary, he went through the front door onto the porch of his house. As he turned himself to close and lock the door, he noticed that his dad had stuffed another card between two cracks in the wood. This card only read <span class=""bb-i"">Don't forget your Bag!</span> The card also had another one dollar bill attached to it, which he swiftly stuffed into his pocket alongside the previous one. It was certainly nice of the old man to remind him of the bag, had he forgotten it things might have ended up quite terribly. 

Once he cleared away from the porch and looked into the sky,  a griffin came down onto the ground and waited for Gabriel to mount it. The last two griffins he had rode were much more unruly, so it was nice to have one that felt well-mannered for once! Once he was on top of the griffin, an old conversation he had with his dad resurfaced in his mind. <span class=""bb-i"">Hey Gabby, think of this! What if you stood on the griffin while riding it!</span> Now, Gabriel knew a good idea from a bad one, but at the same time the thought of standing upon its back as it brought him into the sky was very, very nice.  Such as it with all great heroes, Gabriel could not resist the temptation to ascend like a beast. He stood atop the griffin as it began to flap its wings, and as it rose he couldn't help but remember that stunts like these where why , statistically, men didn't live as long as women.</div>"

Rays of sunlight, in hues of gold, orange and red, began to peek through the treetops, bidding the humble abodes that lay nestled in the branches just below a good morning. Sylus stood up from a sitting position at the realization that it was dawn, brushing his long white hair behind his shoulders, fastening his bow and quiver to his back, and checking inside his pack once more to ensure all he needed was there. Once satisfied, he slung it over his shoulder and took out his smoking pipe, loaded it with tobacco and lit it. The white tiger that lay curled at his feet stirred, lifting her head up towards Sylus, looking him in the eyes with piercing deep blue ones of her own. 
Her voice, a gentle feminine tone that echoed in Sylus’ mind,  chided him, saying 

“Your father would hate to see that you took up such a habit, Master.”

Sylus glared down at her, not in the mood to be scolded by such a layabout.

”I am aware of that, Nalia, but t’is the only thing that can calm my nerves at times like this.”
 
“Relax, Master.”, Nalia replied, “Treat this day like all others before it, and you will do fine.”
 
“That is easy for you to say. All you need to worry about is your next meal and finding a warm patch of sun to bask in.”
 
Sylus looked away from her, having nothing more to say. Nalia knew he was awful with goodbyes, and he’d already said his parting words the previous evening, to her and to everyone else. Just hours ago, he had left the  the gathering at the Chieftain's hall that took place every time any resident of Caeldiron’s Rest left the village for any reason, no matter how long they would be gone, be it weeks, months, years, decades or centuries. He had nothing more to say, to anyone within earshot at least.
 
he put out his pipe, put it back in his tobacco pouch and spoke into the morning air.
 “This will be my second year at the academy. I will reach greater heights of my  abilities, and I will take every step necessary to surpass you, Father. I promise you, I will be a gatekeeper just like you, and I will return here one day. I will keep my promise to mother, even if you could not do the same.” 

He said something very similar to himself one year earlier, on a morning very much like this one.
 The academy was worlds away from here, both literally and figuratively. Last year was an equally overwhelming and refreshing experience, and he knew this year would be no different. Within the hour, a griffon would land right before him, to take him within the black gale, to the Academy. He wondered if it would be the same Griffon as last year. He hoped not, as he was not the greatest conversationalist among beasts, repeating “Just hold on and be silent” to all of Sylus' inquiries. although, thinking back on it, perhaps he simply was not used to being spoken to by a student, as the beast-tongue was not a common gift, even among Sylus’ people. 

At last, after a seeming eternity had passed, he began to hear the beating of wings and gallant screeching of a Griffon.
 “I have arrived, student” echoed within his Sylus’s mind, the screech given meaning by his Druidic bloodline. The beast landed before him. Sylus mounted the beast promptly, opting not to make conversation this time, as this griffon exuded the same no-nonsense attitude the last one did. 

“The second year… I almost cannot conceive of it” Sylus found himself muttering as the great beast flapped its wings and gained momentum, emerging from the treeline and careening towards the great rift in the sky once more. Thoughts of what the coming months may hold weighed heavily on Sylus’ mind, so much so that the scenery seemed to shift and change even quicker than the year before. Eventually, he was stirred from his daydreaming by the Griffon's change to a downward momentum, the Academy gates looming below.</div>"

While most of the inhabitants would normally be indoors preparing for the morning meal or, more likely, a long day of hard work. However this morning, just about everyone was outside, clustered around the center of the village, talking eagerly among each other. The cause of their excitement was a regal figure, perched in the very middle of the murmuring crowd. The large Griffon sat with it's head held high in pride as it waited from it's charge to arrive, glancing occasionally at it's audience, though most of it's attention was focused on a single log cabin, otherwise indistinguishable from the others.

In the darkened interior of the cabin, lit by a few sputtering candles, a girl in a black, wide-brimmed hat looked over the row of wood carving tools that were laid along the top of a large workbench. The candlelight reflected off of Ma's thick round glasses as she counted the tool once again, making sure that she'd collected everything she'd need. She rolled up the tools in a leather wrap and stored them in one of the many compartments of her pack, which sat next to the door. Ma looked at the her pack and glanced around the room once again, wondering if she'd forgotten anything only to be interrupted by the sound on an impatient sigh. ""Bloody hell, girl! You've got everything."" Came a masculine, and very annoyed sounding voice. The source of the voice was mystery as Ma appeared to be alone in the room. ""Let's go, before I die of old age."" Ma glanced up at her hat and responded. ""You're younger than me, remember. I'll die of old age long before you do. Ouch!"" She flinched as something, or someone, dug their claws into her scalp. ""Okay, okay! I'll go, just sthtop!"" She grabbed up her pack, and struggled through the door and into the morning light.

Ma squeezed out through the door, being held back for a moment by the considerable size of the pack she was wearing, mostly due to the fact that most of the pack's space was devoted the young tree that she was carrying in it, the leafy treetop was poking out the top of the pack and hung over her head like a green umbrella. Ma gasped in wonder as she looked at the majestic Griffon that waited in front of her house, barely aware of the other Witches in her village wishing her farewell. ""Woah I kinda withsh sthomething like that waths my Familiar... Ouch! Sthorry."" The little Witch spoke with a noticeable lisp.

Ma hurried forwards and climbed onto the Griffon back, barely settling into a comfortable position before the great beast took off, ascending to incredible heights in a moment and banking towards the Black Gale. Ma could've whooped in excitement if she weren't afraid of swallowing a bug. Strangely, despite the wind her hat remained securely planted on her head. She watched, her wide eyes hidden behind her heavy glasses, as they approached at rift in the sky at incredible speed and, before she had the chance to brace herself, they had blasted through it. The act of passing from one world to another was a strange feeling, like a tingling sensation that ran up and down Ma's arms, and then the moment passed and Ma was looking down on the Black Gale itself, the bridge between worlds. She wanted to see it all, and looked around hungrily, but the cluster of buildings in the distance held her attention. The Academy. ""We're almost there, Sthid!"" She said excitedly. ""Oh joy..."" Came the sarcastic reply.</div>"

She could see the buildings below, carved from the seabed, and picked out her family's former mansion. <span class=""bb-i"">Someday, I'll be back. This is just the first step.</span>

She climbed onto the griffin's back, unable to keep herself from yelling, ""Giddyup!"" The griffin glared at her, but took off anyway. As they approached the Black Gale, Penelope braced herself, not quite sure what passing through would feel like. A quick stab of cold, and then they were through, looking down on the Academy. The griffin pulled into a deep dive, and she whooped with delight. As they landed, Penelope took a look around at her new home. <span class=""bb-i"">I think I'm going to like it here.</span></div>"

She had her sound translator off and instead was listening to music through her headphones so she couldn't hear the air moving past them. She imagined if she didn't have the option to turn it off she would have ringing ears by the time she landed. Flying didn't scare her, she simply hadn't been prepared to protect her eyes from dust and stuff in the air.

Before she had gotten on the griffin she had set off from her house after exchanging few words with her parents. They understood where she was going and her mother had been particularly excited to hear about it. She didn't want to make a huge deal out of it and left as soon as she could. She walked to the given destination as the one she was given wasn't far from her home. That was when she saw the griffin and watched it land with awe.

She felt a chill as she passed through the Black Gale then the griffin took a dive and her heart skipped a beat. She hadn't been expecting it at all. She felt their momentum shift as they landed and she slowly opened her eyes to see she was in fact on solid ground. She got off of the griffin and looked around seeing there were others that were landing. She switched her music off and turned her sound translator on so she could hear her surroundings. She didn't really have any idea where to go next, so she simply waited for directions to come around.</div>"

The soft mauve colored walls absorbed the warm rays, as their high end shelves clung to it, holding steadfast not daring to let the mounds of leather bound books be cast down to the  wood floors. Unlike the ancient relics, the floor showed little want for attention, their soft gleam betraying the intrepid cold seeping through it. A brief moment later the telltale hum of a neon light echoed through the broadened space, the harsh gleam warming the window pane, as the shop’s light spilled out onto the empty sidewalk; its only company the steady silent rows of street lights constantly watching over the merchant street. 

A lone girl stood in the back door way, the thin black curtains enveloping the backs of her ankles, her shadow casting itself into the room, as the soft whir of her eyes penetrated the quiet reprieve, the eerie glow yellow dissipating from them only broken by the constant scroll of white text across them. A soft yawn caused their disappearance as she closed them running a hand over her face in an attempt to wake herself up, per usual she had  woken up to see to that the storefront would be ready, even today of all days, for today was the day the young girl would set off into a world completely outside the comfort of her home, and oh the wonders that awaited her.

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~</div>

The blaring of her alarm woke Mia awake with a jolt as her eyes quickly adjusted to the dark, a soft display showing the date, time, and temperature by default in the corner. She closed her eyes once more slowing breathing before bringing a hand up in front of her vision, steadying herself as she reopened her eyes the flash and scroll of text and numbers quickly replacing the former display.

<span class=""bb-i"">Designation:HumanTemperature:97degreesClassification:HandLength:0.15mAttributes:Flesh, Hair, Nails, Scars…</span>

This constant stream of data continued to emerge in her vision, as she started the process of getting ready, the same data she had seen for the past eleven years, nothing had changed in her room, more books and old scrolls laid scattered on her desk, and sprawled down onto the floor around it. A small oak armoire, another remnant of a past life, stood tall in the back corner, the bathroom light washing over it, sparkling slightly on the chipped and worn red paint. Besides those small adornments the room was bare, the bed itself took the other half of the girls room. A starry landscape projected on to the covers, the sheets and pillows a soft off white, plain in most regards to the tapestries strung in rows on the barren right wall, stretched out to tell a story and create another world the girl could spend hours starting at. It started with the depiction of fairy tales, elves dancing, human shaped flames joining in the folly, the raiding of orcs, fairies and dragons taking to the air, the contents of hers childhood storybooks expanding to a massive black tapestry parting it from the side of cave drawings, and knights, from castles, and space ships, mecha’s and lasers, horses and motorcycles littering the other half of her collage. It seemed that someone had taken a black marker and drawn on it so the black void encompassed parts of the others, covering creatures and items alike.

Making her bed proper, Mia turned to address the pile of clothing adorning the only chair in the room, intentionally meant for her to relax in as she read, and usually covered with the books littering everywhere. A slow shaky breath leaving her small lips, <span class=""bb-b"">”Well today’s the day..”</span> came the soft ethereal wisp of a voice as she turned towards the bathroom a slight glimmer of fear etched onto her face, the data filled eyes as cold as they day she got them.

<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~</div>

Outside the seemingly small shop, the street slowly crept to life matching the rays of sun as it ascended into the sky. More lights started to decorate the once empty avenue, the sole presents on the street was currently resting on the pavement outside the store. Should another traveler had walked by not five minutes earlier they would have seen the proud being descend from the heavens as gracefully as a cat claims its prey, it’s wings clipping the sun light casting blinding rays of gold into the shadowed way below before landing with nary a sound to claim not even as it walked across the cobblestone pave, a tribute to the old markets. The lithe muscles of the being bristled as it settled down lying on the cool ground, mimicking the sphinx of old. The gold shimmered once more with the motions as a brief gust rustled the fallen leaves, its large wings folding neatly into place, its bright keen eyes focused on the girl standing in the shop.


<div class=""bb-center"">~~~~~</div>

Walking down the stairs, the uniform falling nicely onto the girl’s slighted frame, Mia ran a hand along the wall once more not needing light as her eyes adjusted. A quick battle with her hair had tamed it back down into a manageable state, bright red rimmed glasses nestling on her noise mirrored the letter she had received from the academy as she reread it hoping to see if she could gleam any information on just how she was to reach the Academy perched in the precipice of death known as the Black Gale. A soft sigh escaped as a brief flicker in gaze to the left sent the letter flying back into the depths of her data files, not having found anything advantageous. <span class=""bb-b"">”Hmm guess I’ll just have to wait and see..”</span> She mused softly, taking in the time as she pushed the curtain aside reaching out to flick on the life, during her younger years she would have closed her eyes at the incoming tirade of data, but experience and a few upgrades had fixed that issue.  Those upgrades, even the most recent ones with the influx of data on Lucius didn’t deter from the shock factor of seeing a fully grown griffin staring back at her from the street side of the display window.

<span class=""bb-i"">Designation:GriffinColor:Gold:Sex:MaleHeight:68inWeight:268lbsTemperature:102degreesClassification:LucianWingedBeast…</span>

Mia stared at the stream of data, interrupting her view of the majestic creature before tentatively taking a step into the shop, her two small bags stood ready by the heavy oak door baring the entrance to the store. Awe stricken the girl continued her slow pace easily avoiding the counter and smaller display cases, annoyed by the humans slow pace a sharp clack of its beak mixed with a rumble of displeasure echoed from the griffin as he roses shaking himself off in the process once more casting rays of gold light in all directions, his left claw pawing the ground slightly in agitation, as if this reaction was common in most first years. A soft giggle escaped the girls look at how much the griffins cross expression matched that of her mother’s when the small girl couldn’t keep up with the woman’s made dash through the shopping mall for a sale.<span class=""bb-b"">”I’m coming, I’m coming.”</span> She reassured the griffin as she opened the door walking outside, collecting her bags in the process, truthfully the mostly held the girls favorite books and items rarely anything essential to completing a school term. She had learned a while ago that taking notes would become a tedious habit for her. 

Placing her bags down in front of the griffin, Mia tilted her head slightly wondering just where she should place them, doing a small circle of the beast slowly running her left hand through its silky feathers, pleasantly surprised by how warm and soft he felt. Almost smirking the griffin casually collected her belongings in his front claws before using his left wing to buff and scoop her up on to his back, and without a warning took off for the sky, a soft hoot of enjoyment slipping past his beak as the girl clung desperately to his neck, <span class=""bb-b"">”Hey!! That was rude!”</span> her cries of protest were meet by the griffin diving down precariously into a loop as it pulled back up joining the rest of the flock heading towards the Black Gale. Knowing the danger of staring into such a massive anomaly, Mia should have looked away but instead tightened her hold on the griffin determined to see this entire massive cavern in the sky and pass through it.

<span class=""bb-i"">WARING: OVERLOAD IMENENT!! DATA CORRUPTION POSSIBLE!!</span>

The bright red warning flashed vividly in her eyes as they entered the gale, the griffin increasing in speed as they white light encased them just as her vision failed and once more she found herself fumbling desperately to keep a grip on his feathers leaning against in not daring to sit proper in case she tumbled off having no read on how high they were above the ground or the void itself. Mia stayed like that until she could feel the griffin land and a soft nuzzle on her cheek from the concerned creature, made her smile before. <span class=""bb-b"">”Give me a minute, mein herr, this happens at times..’</span> She answered sitting up slightly as the soft glow flickered back on.

She had fallen asleep watching the celebrations of humans outside. She couldn't be sure what they had been celebrating, but she had seen from her years on earth that humans seemed to need little reason to celebrate, always ready to languish in their abundance, but there had been such colors that night, bright flashes in the sky that literally screamed for attention and yet disappeared as quickly as they showed themselves. It had been one of very few treats in the last few weeks she'd  had. 

     Amon had been prepared for death, like all who hunt must be, and had indeed expected it to come someday, although many decades down the line if she had a say. When one goes after herd creatures, one is tempting retribution with every meal. Amon's eyes narrowed at that thought, how proud she had been, believing she was ready to face death. However the humans of this world had turned out to react differently once they'd figured out the perpetrator to the rising body count. They had laid a trap for the trickster, and once they had caught her, they denied her the hunters death she had prepared for. Instead they asked questions,  wanted to know why, where, and who, all sacred answers to one of her kind, so tightly did they hold knowledge that been theirs alone.

     Amon's eyes soften at the next thought,  a shame entering them as the memories continue to recollect themselves unbidden. She was still young by her kinds standards, and when they offered the chance at survival, that base instinct overrode her pride, and like any animal, she gave away all they asked for. Then the men from home had  come, she could smell the magic, the power, coming off of them, and they learned of her abilities, saying it was necessary to evaluate her skills if she was to be taken to this school they offered as an alternative to execution, servitude instead,  in the races glorious battle to protect the lands. He even had her open her orb, allowing him access to her mana stores. He had seemed impressed by the amount of mana in there. He appeared to have gained all the information he wished from her,  and had spoken to those holding her.

     Afterwards there had been words outside some quiet, others rather loud she could tell it was the wardens then, she had apparently gotten his son in her circuit before they had caught her, the memory at retelling the taste to him when they'd brought her in bringing a smirk to her lips.

     Amon scratched at the new accessory she had been given, a simple black leather choke wrapped around her neck, the device they believed they would control her with. They wanted the monsters to fight the monsters. Well if they wanted a monster, she'd be more than happy to give it to them,  but it would be the kind they feared lived under their beds, the ones that would attack when they were defenseless. She would not soon forget how they had taken knowledge, prey, and her freedom from her, all things came with a price, and if they were willing to take they must give as well.

     With this happy thought in her head, Amon smirked shooting off of the seat and gathering the supplies they had given her to start school, 9 tails whipping into a frenzy behind her as she thought of what the future might yet still hold, ears catching the sound of wings flapping in the distance, claws scrapping the ground, and what sounded like an armed escort coming her way. It would take vast amounts of patience and waiting for a chance to appear with such restrictions on her, but that would be nothing new to a hunter who had stalked prey before. 

     But for now, she would be that perfect little schoolgirl they wanted to turn her into.</div>"

    The room was small. Kinda dingy, actually, and a mess. An open duffel bag lay on the table, a few shirts hanging out over the edge. Jeans were draped over a chair, a jacket hung on the doorknob, a blanket had been kicked onto the floor, and even the bed itself was a mess. Well, if it could really even be called a bed, more like a glorified cot (admittedly a little wider) with a bedroll on top, but that's beside the point. It was nicer than what some of the other to-be 5th years stayed in at least. 

Chris woke up early that morning. Which is to say, early by <span class=""bb-i"">his</span> standards. He rose with the sun. But today was different; he had to go back to the Academy. Fuck. He was only half-packed. Again: Fuck. He scooted over, sat at the edge of the cot, rubbed his eyes,scratched his <span class=""bb-i"">organic</span> bicep -the left one- and yawned. A rag sat on the end table against the wall next to his bed. He picked it up, and gave his metal arm a once-over, rubbing out any spots that may have accumulated and hardened during the night. There was a noise from behind him as he stood up, a stirring of the sheets and the murmur of a voice. He looked behind him; oh shit. The girl. Fuck. FUCK! What was her name again? Fuck. He had to pack. Now. 
    
    Sliding off the bed, he started retrieving his guns from their hiding places near him. Pistol between the mattress and headboard, check. Revolver behind the end table, check. Sniper rifle underneath the bed, check. He looked frantically around the room, trying to figure out what to do next. Pants! Yeah, pants. That would be good. He tiptoed over to the chair quickly, grabbed the pair of jeans, and started putting them on. KRRRP! Shit. Big toe ripped a huge hole in the knee. Oh well. Ripped jeans were back in-style anyway. He flipped the dangling clothes back into the duffel, and tossed any items lying about into it as well before zipping it up as quietly as he could. Lifting up the bra on top, he grabbed his shirt off the bedpost. It was one of his favorites- ""Feed My Frankenstein."" Ah, Alice Cooper. The music of his grandparents, as he affectionately called it. They were pretty cool people. Okay, mind wandering. Re-focus. Gotta go. He grabbed his duffel off the table, and his jacket off the door, stuffing his arms in as he started running down the hall. He suddenly stopped and did a 180. Guns. He ran back, stuffing his guns in the holsters in his jacket, and slung the rifle over his shoulder. He looked back at the girl. She was still asleep, and... Hey. She was actually pretty cute. Maybe he <span class=""bb-i"">would</span> leave her his number on a scrap of paper, or... Nah.
    
    Still barefoot, he got outside just in time to see the griffon land in front of him. He had to brace himself from the wind that its wings created. Walking over to it, he rubbed its beak before pulling its head into an embrace. 
    
    ""Hey, buddy... Long time no see."" 
    
    The griffon cawed quietly in response. 
    
    ""Well, don't worry. I'll come visit you once I get settled in, alright?""
    
    The griffon shook its neck and ruffled its feathers.
    
    ""Alright, there's my boy."" 
    
    He patted its head before hopping up onto its side. The beast wasted no time before letting off a caw, getting a good running start, and taking off into the early morning darkness.</div>"

A messy brawl would have been more accurate to describe the situation though as a lone figure stood tall amongst the horde of creatures that sought to dog pile him. All manners of cries from high-pitched screeches to deep rumbling roars filled the air as the approached, but Raule responded only with the sound of his blows as they pulped his enemies. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Suggestion noted,”</font> he muttered rather sardonically as he tore half a dozen infested in half with a kick. 

<span class=""bb-i""><font color=""#0072bc"">'These things are fucking persistent,’</font></span> he thought bitterly as the halves twitched violently even as he charged past them and tore into the remaining horde. At least they were fragile, far more so than they had been in life, and the sheer force behind his strikes were enough to shred the infected to pieces. The spores that drifted from their torn bodies found no purchase on Raule either, the Void eradicating any trace that so much as tried to worm its way into his body. A wave of all-consuming blackness radiated out from him and dozens stumbled back as the Void erased the surface traces of the infection. And then the world was lit aflame, the dead material lighting up easily as firebombs detonated all around him. The noise changed to panicked cries as the infected instinctively fled from the cleansing flames, and Raule stood amidst the charred corpses unperturbed by the smoke filling his lungs with a thoughtful look. 

In the end he had chosen to pursue the infection deeper and to its source. It was more tedious than difficult as the main danger these creatures posed was completely ineffective against him. Their numbers made progress a slow crawl as he was literally forced to rip through thousands of bodies, flinging parts and mutilating the infected like some mad blender. At times he fought while his eyesight was clouded by smoke and fires danced him at every moment, so thick was the ground with infected that they would have bogged him down had he not burned them. It was literally the worst grind he had to deal with in all his years at the Academy and this wasn’t even something that had been forced onto him by the school. No, it was just something he’d come across while waiting for his final year to start. 

So it was with some vengeful satisfaction that he watched the wall of tendrils blast apart when an explosive crammed infected slammed into it like a projectile. As the plants withered and fell to the ground he climbed through and winced at the spore filled air. It was little more than an annoyance, but at this moment Raule had fairly little patience for anything. The bright vine wrapped core pulsed brightly as he came into contact with the spores, the infection vectors disappearing the moment they touched him. Evidently it realized the foreign presence had reached it and the chamber seemed to shudder as vines began to uncoil from the very floor.

<font color=""#0072bc"">“Oh hell no you don’t,”</font> he muttered as he grasped what was left of the explosives he’d been provided and hurled it straight at the infection’s source. Perhaps a bit overkill, given there was still enough inside to apparently immolate an entire high-rise, but as mentioned, Raule wasn’t in a very “give a shit” mood. He bolted the moment the projectile was out of his hands which proved to be a very good idea as he didn’t quite manage to hop the remains of the gate that had protected the core’s chamber.

More of the blast threw him right out and he hit the ground hard, tumbling to a halt after a few moments. He didn’t even need to turn around to understand a fire storm was raging on behind him as the heat and light made that quite clear enough. “Really?” The word was spoken with a sense of disbelief and annoyance as he felt the ground tremble under his feet and a bit of dust rain upon him from above. Apparently with the core’s death and its system of vines, its entire lair was about to destabilize. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Fuck me,”</font> he muttered before he began to bolt for the surface, the Watcher’s soft glow illuminating his path for him. 
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

<font color=""#f7941d"">“Good to see you made it out. Thought things were looking bad when we started getting some heavy seismic readings.”</font>

Raule paused in trying to catch his breath as he looked up into the man’s eyes before looking back away and taking a few more deep breaths. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Yeah… thought the whole damn thing… was going to collapse on my head.”</font> He took a final deep breath before he straightened his posture and met the man’s gaze. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Anyways, things should calm down now. There’s probably still a number of infected, but if they should die off on their own in a few days or so without the core to maintain them.”</font>
<font color=""#f7941d"">""We appreciate the effort you put in. It was bad enough trying to contain them, can’t imagine how we would have cleaned out the lair on our own.”</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">“Well it’s my job as much as it is yours.”</font>

The words seemed to sit well with the man and he cracked a smile as he nodded. <font color=""#f7941d"">“Good words kid. You sure you don’t want to stick around, I’m sure nobody’s got an issue with that after what you pulled off.”</font>

To that Raule had to shake his head. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Academy wants its fifth years back by now. There’s probably a griffon flying around up there wondering why it can’t find its passenger. Makes them terribly sad and disappointed.”</font> The man seemed to chuckle at the imagery before he held out a hand.

<font color=""#f7941d"">“In that case, it’s been a real pleasure to have you around. Hopefully we’ll meet again.”</font>
<font color=""#0072bc"">“Indeed Major. Farewell for now.”</font> He gave the officer a firm handshake, slipping off his clawed gloves to do so before he turned to the east where the Academy lay. Refitting the piece of equipment, he gave some of the gathered soldiers a wave before he kicked himself into a full run. The buildings blurred past him as he accelerated towards max speed, fully aware of the massive wall that surrounded the entire complex. The ground cracked and fragmented under his feet when he pushed off it, and he just barely managed to clear the fortification; his claws actually carved small furrows in the material with a shower of sparks. 
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Surprisingly, his run to the Academy came to a halt only a few kilometers away from the military base. A loud cry from above had him skid to a stop, leaving a small trail of ripped up earth, and he looked up expectantly. Unsurprisingly, his expectations proved correct as he saw the griffon dive bomb towards him. It was a bit hard to tell, but the creature might have looked a bit angry. <font color=""#0072bc"">“Well damn…”</font> he muttered as he braced for impact.</div>"
25581,Academy of the Arcane Artes [Reboot],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76572-academy-of-the-arcane-artes-reboot,['Casual'],2015-02-21 07:04:00,Ryonara,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Six AM, sharp. First routine: Activate the main body. It would need a few minutes to full boot up which in the mean time Yuga would use to check what her tasks for today was. She got a list from the company: First she would need to run a diagnostic on her body as well as her systems. She already did one last week, but this was protocol. Secondly she'd need to head down to the main office to pick up her Memory Banks. One was general knowledge, another was a combat Memory Bank for her main body, and lastly a blank Memory Bank. Yuga could guess from the blank Memory Bank that they wanted her to observe everything she can about the academy. Fair enough she supposed, she would like to learn as well. Once her body was ready Yuga loaded herself through the Main Terminal and into her lithe and robotic frame.

The first place Yuga headed to was the machine shop. It was a factory setting where hundreds of robotic bodies were being made, but unlike Yuga they were ""Cheap"" service androids, not nearly as sophisticated as her body was. They wouldn't even be getting an AI. Yuga saw some of her siblings along the way and greeted them silently by sending them her list of tasks for the day, while she obtained theirs. Similar to her own but they were heading to different parts of the shop for different needs. Yuga wondered why she was only given three tasks for today, but she figured that after she reported in she would be given her other tasks.

Once Yuga arrived at the machine shop a familiar face came up to her. ""'Ello there lassy, ready for your check up?"" Yuga nodded her head at the mechanic. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I am ready.""</font> Stepping onto a platform Yuga waited patiently as mechanical arms came out of the ground. The first thing they did was remove Yuga's auxiliary limbs from her back and dismantled them on a separate table. Than another arm came out and held Yuga aloft by the base of her neck as her legs were removed and also taken apart. Next was her arms, than her torso, leaving Yuga as a severed head floating by a robotic hand. And even that didn't last too long before it was placed on a table with the mechanic from before. ""Just going to shut this off right quick Yuga, you won't even feel a thing."" The life in Yuga's eyes died down as she returned to the cyberspace she called home.

Here Yuga would have her system diagnosis. Although she lacked the physical organs, she could almost year the scientist crunching through her code to find errors. At the same time she heard, or saw, someone speaking to her. This was a different sort of test: This was the Personality test were they made sure Yuga could reliably handle a situation on her own, without relying on someone else to give her directions. ""Good morning Yuga. Please answer the following questions...""

This diagnosis lasted about two hours, ending exactly at eight o'clock AM. By the time she was back into her body Yuga looked new and squeaky. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Oh? What is this?""</font> Yuga felt around on the back of her head and moved her fingers over three slots. The mechanic there smiled at her while wiping his nose with his greasy glove. It defeated the purpose of trying to keep his nose clean. ""Added extra ports for yer Memory Banks Yuga! Before you've only been able to access one at a time, but this time we've managed to fit two more on ya. This way you don't have to keep hybridizing memory banks and just use three to their full potential. Now that being said, if you aren't going to use one of them we recommend cover them up with a port plug. You know how it is, stick anything else in there and well... Things could get messy."" Yuga nodded her head stoically as she looked at the ports through a mirror. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I understand.""</font>

With that out of the way Yuga headed on over to her main office. It was very far away from the Machine Shop where she just was, and much quieter. Yuga actually had to wait for a bus to pick her up. The driver was a crusty black man who gave Yuga a polite greeting before waiting a few more minutes for more passengers. Two more robots joined, neither of them related to Yuga but they sat next to her anyways. Eventually some humans came onto the bus chatting about finally getting their sleep. Morning workers no doubt, been here since one AM. The only noise came from them as the bus moved across a wide open concrete plain and into another building. There was a sign next to a set of double doors that read out, in English, ""ARISAWA TECHNOLOGIES"". There was a lot of bird poop on it. The robots sitting next to Yuga stood up first and headed strait to the sign, their task apparently being to clean it. Yuga bid them a silent farewell as she entered the main building to find the main office.

Following a familiar path Yuga stood before a large imposing door. It was not a normal door made of wood with a door handle or such silliness, but a titanium steel alloy gate that could only be opened with a key card scan and a voice prompt. Neither which Yuga had or needed because someone opened the door form the other side. ""Just on time Yuga Abubu."" Sitting at a large wooden desk was a sharply dressed woman, her brown hair tied up in a bun and her face adorn with a pair of rimless glasses. She took out a small metal box which Yuga took. Than Yuga picked up a pen just as the women took out a slip of paper. Yuga signed it with her signature, taking the effort to put two little dors above the ""u"" in her first name. It made it look like a smiley face. Once that was finished Yuga did not leave just yet. She had obtained her Memory Banks now, what was her next tasks? She asked the receptionist. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Excuse me... Was there anything else I was tasked to do today?""</font> The lady looked away at her computer for a moment before taking out her phone and scanning it for any notes. She spotted something and started working on her computer a bit and in a few seconds she turned to Yuga. ""Yes, there's a Griffon waiting for you at the front entrance. Today's the big day, isn't it Yuga? Your second year at the Academy! Aren't you excited?""

Excitement. That was the emotion of feeling a great amount of enthusiasm and eagerness about something. Was Yuga excited? <font color=""#6ecff6"">""Very. It would be good to go back.""</font> A little white lie. Yuga would not regret going back to the Academy, but she would miss the Company. Communications with them at the Academy was limited to deliveries and the occasional email due to blocked frequencies from the Black Gale. And not only that but Yuga was actually a bit worried about going to the Academy. She had did fairly well for herself the first year thanks to superior firepower, but she had left her combat chassis at the Academy. Granted, it was being well maintained, but she felt that this year she could go for a upgrade. She disliked how she lacked melee options and know that striking her opponents with the barrel of her guns were a good way to damage them severely. She made these thoughts known to the company of course, but she also knew that they had yet to implement any plans into upgrading her Combat Chassis. She supposed it wouldn't matter. She would be working with a team now, who ought to be able to make up for what she lacks. Hopefully.

Yuga met the griffon at the front entrance, a large majestic beast from Lucis. Before mounting she opened the metal box she had taken from the receptionist and inserted the Memory Banks into her ports. She could feel the information rush into her head and it was sensational. Never before has she ever had access to more than one memory bank at a time. She could feel her body move on it's own in reaction to various attacks, as well as a bunch of random trivia and factoids about everything from mathematics to Western Literature Arts and Psychology to Instrumental Music. A lot of generally niche information that Yuga may have no use for, but better safe than sorry. Once she had gotten over the initial euphoria of the Memory Banks Yuga wordlessly mounted the Griffon and headed through the Black Gale. <font color=""#6ecff6"">""I wonder if anything has changed since I last went through here.""</font></div>"

The warm sun pierced the clouds and beamed along the grassy cliff. The waves crashing along the jagged rocks and the smell of salt lingered in the air. Jett stood at the cliff, straight back, arms behind his back and black Ray-Bans on his eyes. Jett awoke to find a uniform on his bed, still wondering how it got there. Jett got dressed and left his hotel to arrive at this cliff. The sword around Jett's waist, Striker isn't like just like any katana. Striker has a voice of her own. Her voice spoke through Jett's mind, <font color=""#7bcdc8""><span class=""bb-i"">""Jett, Are you sure about this? About this school?""</span></font> a worried tone in her voice. Jett, talking through his mind with a smile breaking across his face, <font color=""#bc8dbf""><span class=""bb-i"">""I know Striker, not like me to go to this type of thing. But we owe to Ralthavar and The Harmonious First's. If it wasn't for him we'd still be getting chased. He wants me at this school to be his bodyguard.

Jett nodded to the griffin and the beauty took flight, towards his future and towards his master.</div>"

An ethereal, synthesized voice called out into the night. The shimmering streets of downtown Los Angeles, normally bustling, were nearly barren at this time of night. Even in such eventful times, cities slept, and when they did, Frontal Lobe was alone with his thoughts. Pacing the slick sidewalk of a city he used to be familiar with, the possessed android chirped out a tune to amuse himself. His ""face,"" a hypnotic, glorified screensaver, shined back at him in the large puddles in the street. It had just stopped raining a little while ago, and he was content to take a stroll through the steaming city.

""<font color=""#ec008c"">As I was walkin' I was lookin' for a fight...</font>""

The downtime was always the worst. He just had too much time to himself, and too little to spend it on. One never realized how many distractions and pleasures relied on stimulating senses until one was bereft of them. Sure, he could still get a kick out of things now and again, but by and large they were cheap thrills. Screwing with the power grid to write curse words that only the orbital satellites could see. Reprogramming the animatronics in a children's themed pizzeria to scare the shit out of the employees. That sort of thing. But distractions were all they were.

""<font color=""#ec008c"">'Cause you know the freaks come out at night...</font>""

FL didn't lack purpose. He had decided on one, himself. It was just that it was a long ways off, and he had yet to get used to this ""eternity"" thing. Being dead, one would think that he would be more patient and accustomed to silence and stillness. Truth be told, he didn't have as much time to get used to it as most. Just when he was coming around to the idea, he had gotten yanked back into the bright and shiny world of people with skin. Having such unique dilemmas made FL a bit distant, as literally no one else he knew could empathize with him. But he'd get used to it in time. He'd have to.

""<font color=""#ec008c"">And I'm a freak, baby, damn right.</font>""

However, the griffon in front of him was a relief to see. He had been waiting all freakin' night for this freaky bird to show up, and finally its fuzzy ass decided to show up. FL rolled his neck, the motors in his spine whirring quietly at he did so. Sidling up to the griffon, he reached out gently to it with his ""real,"" plasmic arm. He focused his energy into the griffon, and attempted to reach into it. Nope, once again, he phased directly through it. No dice this time, he supposed, but that why he was going where he was going, right?

FL mounted the griffon, his gloved, mechanical hand latching onto its mane as his other held his single suitcase of luggage. The beast seemed notably disturbed by his presence, but FL really didn't care. If it wasn't used to carting around ghosts that rode around inside of robots, it could damn well hurry up and get used to it. He spurred the beast on with the heels of his leather boots, and his mount took to the air.

There, dead ahead, was their destination. The Black Gale. Some might feel trepidation at such a sight. Terror even. FL felt only purpose, as cold and steely as his metal body. He had forgotten how to feel fear a long time ago. He had forgotten how to feel a lot of things.</div>"

Varren gritted his teeth, shielding his eyes from the blinding light as it encroched on his eyelids.  Without a moment wasted, the boy reopened them and was faced with a similar terrain to the one he had just departed from.  The boy nearly fell off of his griffin out of amazement, before the flow of griffins was an endless scape of white stretching beyond the horizon.  At this point, other beasts of myth and lore bearing other students draped in different uniforms began to branch off from the large clump of youthful aspiration.  The only bliss he was obliged to was a slight change in climate, yet he would be forced to bear the frigid temperature for the next hour.  The main unit of aviators passed a slew of academies, with small groupings splitting off at every stop.  The academy Varren was attending was located in the known middle of the Black Gale.  Of course those which are closer to their corresponding portal are more sided with whatever world established them first, yet there were a few which claimed true unbiased neutrality.  This gave way to the demolishment of leverage, and created a sense of equality to circulate throughout the campus.  But due to its placement, it was quite the excruciating journey.  The boy couldn’t help but to giddily grin as he hugged onto the griffin tightly.  <span class=""bb-b"">“Alright, Mr. G!, we’re gonna go in for a fast landing.  This is Yinyues six-four to Academy Base, how copy?”</span> Alas, the boy’s innocent ramblings were only met with the frozen wind as a response.  After a journey full of sneezes, wails, and miracle saves at keeping his balance, the section of griffins bearing academy students parted ways with the traveling conglomerate.  

Varren peered down while tightening his grip on the beast, only hanging his upper torso over its streamline figure ever so slightly, just enough to get a decent bird’s eye view.  He scanned for the landing zone and ended up focusing on what appeared to be a medium between a dock and an airport.  He wasn’t able to make out much, given the fact that the entire surface was covered in a fine layer of pure white.  The campus itself was gigantic, large enough that the student was unable to see its edges through the snow, and could only make out faint silouhettes in the distance.  He began to narrow his eyes as he attempted to mentally paint out what he imaged the appearance of said buildings would be.  Actually, the boy was so focused, he had forgotten the sudden change in gravity.  <span class=""bb-b"">“Oh~! This… Happened…”</span> What started off ecstatic quickly transformed itself in a shamble of dread.  His griffin had completely flipped itself over, forcing the boy to hang on for dear life.  The creature then launched itself into a nose-dove, keeping Varren by the fingertips as it made its swift descent.  He could see his life flash before his eyes, all of it.  All those times he had outsmarted his classmates, also all the countless visits to the range, even the funeral he held for his first coffee cup.  Well, in retrospect, doesn’t seem to have been that much of an eventful life.  

Rather than flailing him into a nice rosey decoration to the landscape, the bird arched its back and bleated its speed.  The landing was surely elegant, but was hard enough to squeeze out the last ounce of measly strength in Varren’s fingers.  His face was void of expression, as if he had just come face to face with the devil.  He unconsciously slipped off of the bird’s side and fell back into the snow.  The grey sky was all he could register in his dazed state.  But soon enough the gears of youthfulness began to churn again.  <span class=""bb-b"">“That was a fun ride! Could’ve been a bit smoother Mr. G, but that’s alright.  I rate it a nine out o-”</span> He was cut off mid-sentence when the griffin narrowed its beaded eyes at him, <span class=""bb-b"">“I of course mean… ten out of ten!  Yeah!  I’ll tip you later.  You can name my first born, alright~?”</span> The creature only muttered a grunt at Varren’s terms before propelling itself off the ground, covering the boy in a coat of blown snow as it set out to real in another student from their homage.

The boy spun around on the heel of his foot and patted himself down with hands already numb from the snow.  He tightened his scarf, then dug into his cases and sifted through its contents.  <span class=""bb-b"">“Let’s see… Gun… Magazines… Gum… Some more magazines… Bit of manga… Alright, all set.”</span> With a quicky crossing of his arms he gave a nod of approval.  Definitely not to himself, but to the thoughtfulness of whichever butler packed his case.  He exhaled and idly watched as the heated air dissipated, then glanced up at the continuous flow of griffin traffic.  The student wasn’t entirely sure about the layout of the academy, surely they would be brochures distributed later on.  The boy was caught off guard when he heard a loud crackling sound renown through the entire campus.  He would have fallen back into the snow if he hadn’t managed to keep his balance.  

After a few moments of suspense, the auditor cleared her throat before speaking, <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">”We hope that your arrival to the Academy of the Arcane Artes was as smooth as it was enjoyable.  For now, we would like to ask you to take your luggage and proceed to the main hall and follow instructions given by teachers for your sitting location.”</span></span> The monotonous voice continued to repeat the message with no avail.  <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">”For now, we would li- Headmaster, what are you doing?""</span></span> The voice once bland was now surprised all of a sudden.  <span class=""bb-b""><span class=""bb-u"">”All students who are currently standing around like a bunch of uninformed buffoons, please proceed into the main hall. As for those of you who still intend to loligag- sorry, I mean lollygag, I advise that you follow the same suit, before I shove my lower-right crystalline edge up your rea-”</span></span> The voice suddenly diminished in volume, as if it had been yanked away from the microphone.  All that could be heard was the crackling of timbers and flames.  After a few moments the womanly voice from earlier regained her composure, apologized for the interruption, and continued with the procedural announcement.  The boy glanced around at the incoming students and shrugged, wondering which of them would be his possible classmates.  <span class=""bb-i"">”Guess we’ll find out later~! Or maybe sooner than I expect.  Tune in next time, on Varren Ball Z-”</span> And then Varren got decked in the face by a stray snowball.  Oh winter, so beautiful, yet so cruel.  The boy decided to linger for a few moments before proceeding towards the line filing into what he presumed was the main hall.</div>"
25585,Academy of the Arcane Artes [Reboot],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76572-academy-of-the-arcane-artes-reboot,['Casual'],2015-02-22 07:46:00,Grey,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;""><div class=""bb-h2"">Francois Jeannotte</div>
A sound filled the small, immaculate white room. Francois let out a low hum as he read through the final pages of the novel at his desk. He rolled his swivel chair out, turned on the revolving seat, and slid the book back into place on the bookshelf with the rest of the young adult literature graciously granted to him by his guardians. ""Good for the mind,"" they'd told him. Sliding back across the meticulously organized, sleekly designed dormitory to the desk, the French-American checked the clock on his dresser and got off his seat. It was just about time to head out for 'second phase testing', as the labcoats called it. Personally Francois didn't mind the change. He knew that it required him to attend a Gatekeeper's training academy with other individuals working towards the same goal, a far cry from the solitary testing he'd been doing since... Well, ever. But if it <span class=""bb-i"">was</span> anything like his previous testing, it shouldn't be all that complicated, right? Which meant that there was no need to worry as long as he made himself useful, right?

Francois' grip on the back of the chair tightened for a moment as he pushed the seat into place at the desk. 

...And besides, now he'd have the opportunity to stop bothering the labcoats and finally interact with people his own age. Hopefully they wouldn't be as professional and aloof as the former. He... <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> didn't like that possibility. The oddly-haired young man strode to the coat closet and donned his army-green blazer. He glanced at the clock again. He still had some time left until he had to leave. Thus what followed was a quick inspection and cleaning of the white room and its sleek, modern furnishings. Francois would rather not inconvenience the scientists who'd taken him by leaving a mess of the room they'd provided him after all. The experiment in nanotechnology took one last look at his 'home' and sighed. He'd already said his goodbyes the night before - they threw him a party and everything! - which meant all that was left was to wait outside for his transportation.

Which, incidentally, was what he was doing right now.

Francois took the moments he had left to bask in the utter lack of scenery in the undefined American southwestern desert. His mind pondered the possibilities of what transport awaited him as the slight breeze pushed a tumbleweed across his field of view. Maybe it'd be some kind of marvel of science, like a hover-car or miniaturized jet or a super advanced VTOL. He knew that the other half had capabilities of their own, so maybe he'd be teleported with some kind of magic? 

A large feather fell from the sky, passing in front of Francois' face. The student glanced upward, mismatched eyes widening a moment later.

""That's incredible...!"" he exclaimed, expression utterly incredulous as the hybrid lion-eagle descended before him. The young man unconsciously stepped backwards, as the griffin landed with a beat of its mighty wings. The beast stared at him, eyes practically screaming the words ""saddle up kid, you're in for a wild ride."" Absolutely giddy with excitement, Francois mounted the creature. There was no saddle, but once he settled into the griffin's soft, feathered back, he realized exactly why that was. This bird was really, <span class=""bb-i"">really</span> comfy. It smelled bird-like, sure, but damn it felt good to be on. However, once he was deemed by the griffin to be sufficiently secured, they flew. Poor Francois didn't even get thirty seconds to bask in its comfortability before he was forced to face the high-speeds of griffin-based flight. Isn't it sad?

As they gained altitude, Francois decided to tale a look back at the ground, where the shape of the facility he had left grew smaller and smaller. He'd only flown twice in his life: now, and when he was younger, getting brought over from France. His grip on the griffin tightened, illiciting a squawk that forced him to relax. Even if they were going rather fast, it wasn't prudent to cling too hard to the mount, yeah?

<div class=""bb-center"">&lt;&lt;o&gt;&gt;</div>
Francois decided that he rather liked flying.

The sensation of wind flowing through his hair, the freedom of being unfettered by the ground, the blurring of surroundings as they dart through swaths of land... It was all just wonderful. Though he could do away with the chill. They'd already crossed into the Black Gale, and already the frigid cold stung his exposed skin, a vast divergence from the warm winds of the southwestern US. He'd take into account the weather discrepancy for next time around. Fortunately his griffin's body heat was sufficient to keep him from losing fingers or toes. Not that his nanobots couldn't deal with that. Because they could.

Finally the Academy came into view, it's silhouette like a lighthouse on a stormy cliff. Snow bombarded the young man and his mount, bringing back long dead memories of cold Parisian winters. He gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes to avoid taking a snowflake to cornea. By this point Francois had lost track of the time he'd been clinging to the griffin. Although that was mostly due in part of the fact his griffin thought it a good idea to try and outdo some other unfortunate individual's griffin in the 'give your rider a heart attack' contest. Thank goodness for reinforced gripping ability. Nevertheless, despite that daunting experience, Francois could earnestly say that he still liked flying. 

Rather, the only change was that he now thought his mount was an asshole.

Thankfully the landing was much smoother. The griffin glided down to the landing platform at a nice, smooth, reasonablly consistent speed, which was apparently not the case with certain other individuals. Francois dismounted and nodded at the asshat griffin, as if to say that he accepted that landing as an apology for the griffin's heinous attempt at stunt flying. He retrieved what little luggage he had packed from the griffin and listened to the rather peculiar announcement. He blinked twice. Was this what education among other youths would be like? He shook the thoughts from his head and the gathered snow from his hair. It wasn't his place to judge anyway. And so, snow crunching underfoot, Francois gazed around the surroundings as he made his way to the main hall. Or more accurately, the line of students forming outside the main hall.</div>"

""I cannot wait until the weather changes... This cold is nearly unbearable,"" he found himself saying as he took in the familiar, but still surreal, alien architecture that stretched out below him.

 he looked beside, in front of, and behind himself, watching as more and more griffons parted ways from the group he was clustered in, narrowing down to the students that were to be his peers. Most of the students he could immediately make out details of were clinging to their transportation for dear life, or generally seemed to be in some state of shock or awe. He inferred from this that there must be quite a few first years in the mix, more than the following year even.

After some time of passing academy after academy he recognized the much more familiar silhouette of The Academy of the Arcane Artes in the distance, and began bracing for his descent and landing. Sylus's transportation hovered in place for a bit before beginning gradual descent to the landing area. Once on the ground, he dismounted the griffon and collected his things from its claws, nodding in appreiciation towards the beast before it flew off again.

 He idled for a moment, glancing at the other students landing nearby, picking out any familiar faces and studying a few of the unfamilliar ones. As the speaker system crackled to life, Sylus was stirred from his curiosity by the realization that he needed to get inside to the main hall promptly, both because of the imminent first-day ceremony and the fact that he was utterly freezing. He briskly joined the throngs of students heading into the main building, to begin what would inevitably be an eventful school year, for better or for worse.</div>"

The cold winds struck at Jett and if not for his glasses, he'd have lost both his eyes. Off in the distance was a rowdy noise, screams, laughter and yelling... Jett looked closer at the dot and soon realized that the one big dot was a swarm of little dots, almost a hundred. Jett smiled and looked down towards the griffin. Jett got down to the griffins ears and with the wind going down his throat he managed to say, ""<font color=""#92278f"">""I want to be there before that group of Orcs,""</font> Jett said while pointing in the direction of the noise. The griffin let out a grunt and almost instantly picked up speed, barely hanging on Jett laughed at the enjoyment of this flight. <font color=""#92278f"">""Come on, I know you can faster!""</font> Jett said, challenging the beautiful creature. Jetts glasses almost flew off and he himself struggled to even keep breathing. The noise of the Orcs quickly faded and bursting through a cloud revealed The Academy.

<div class=""bb-h3"">The Academy</div>
The Academy was so white and elegant, the simplicity and the complex mixed well and created a beautiful scene and place to stay. Jett looked for a place to land but decided to ask the griffin. <font color=""#92278f"">""Remember the Orcs we beat here, can you land me where they would be? I need to see the leader, if its not to much trouble.""</font> The griffin turned towards a landing pad and Jett jumped off before the griffin landed, <font color=""#92278f"">""This is good enough, thank you for the ride and you need to work on you're speed, still too slow,""</font> Jett smirked at his comment. The griffin seemed to almost smile, he turned, flapped its wings and knocked Jett completely off his feet. He got up in time to see the griffin fly away. The big dot was now visible. Jett got up, wiped himself off, ignored the rude and random announcement and stood up straight, arms crossed behind his back and waited for the Orcs to arrive.</div>"
25588,Academy of the Arcane Artes [Reboot],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76572-academy-of-the-arcane-artes-reboot,['Casual'],2015-02-22 10:16:00,The Fox Without,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">     The trip through the Black Gale had been an uneventful affair, a tense atmosphere surronding the ride from being aware that she was sitting atop a predator much larger than herself, no matter how pretty it may have been. The griffin they had sent was a rather aged creature, the lions  fur having been edged with grey, a few scars visible to the trained eye, but his eyes showed a languid confidence that hinted at having had years of practice honing is strength.

     'Ah,' Amon thought to herself as she saw the creature, ' I suppose it was a bit much to hope they'd leave me with no guards on the trip.'

     Despite the fact she had found it a rather comfortable trip, having already been prepared from her last trip for the transition from leaving one world for another. She spent the time during the trip merely  taking in the view, having little else to do on the trip. It wasn't long into the trip before they had joined a mass of griffins, each carrying their own load, but Amon was quick to note that for each of a diffrent race that appeared, and the multitude of humans to be seen, she had yet to see another of her own. It mattered little, as she'd probably have little to talk of with those of her own race. The last and only other time she had ran into another kumiho, it had been in a dispute over hunting rights in the village, and she had left fairly battered for the meeting. She felt little need to have another ""family reunion.""

     Turning her attention back to the rest, she noted with some satisfaction that most of the others seemed to be hunkering down and holding on for dear life to the birds, the image leaving a smirk on her lips. She had little trouble balancing on the creature, her many tails more than enough to handle any problems with balance she might have. The wind, however, was a bit more bothersome. Her ears were positively plastered against her head to ward of the offending gale,  and the oncoming sight of the  academy was a welcome one indeed.

     The two of them landed with little fanfare, her escort giving a small snort as she got off directed at a rather young looking griffin fall at what seemed like a meteoric rate toward the ground, wings flaring and tail whipping as it landed, the poor student on it's back looking rather shaken from the experience. The scene was mildly amusing for a second, before a gust of wind promptly reminded her of the cold weather currently in effect, her tails reflexively wrapping themselves around her as she glared at nothing in particular, annoyed at the current weather. The brochure had said the weather was controlled, and while she had never minded the winter before, it seemed a waste to keep it so cold when it wasn't mandatory. She had to fight off the urge to immediately shift to her apparently furred Fox form. She'd simply stick it out for the moment. Amon would rather avoid attention for the moment if she could help it. Instead, she threw on the cloak over her uniform and quickly wrapped her tails around herself again, resembling to be clad in a somewhat luxurious fur scratched briefly at the choker on her neck again before catching herself, grimacing at the reminder. 

     She gazed at the structures ahead of her, admitting that they were quiet impressive. It was certainly a far cry from the schools she had seen during her time on earth, seeming more like a small town than a school, with hundreds up on hundreds of students gathering together. Amon held her orb as she began to feel a twinge of anxiety, the dark violet, melon sized orb emitting a pulse  as she considered her next step. 

      That decision was taken care of for her as a sharp noise caused Amon to wince as the speakers came to life, with a rather interesting message played over the sound system,  causing a confused expression to appear on her face. It was a rather presented in a rather unorthodox attitude, but the point had come across easily enough. She was at a loss as to where this main hall may be, but quickly concluded that following the crowd that was already on the move seemed best. She worked her way into one such group, folding her ears back to drown out the noise, trying her best to ignore all the painfully unguarded students, many of whom she could smell rich reserves of mana, the scent incessantly reminding her that it had been some days she had last fed,  but she had been assured that they would be able to cater to her specific tastes, and she didn't fancy trying for a daring escape so early. After all, she was here to learn was she not.</div>"

She glanced around the grounds. Elegant buildings, immaculate grounds, and... was that a <span class=""bb-i"">lake?</span> Tide come in, it was! That was perfect. She would be able to feel open water on her scales. No siren should have to transform in a bathtub, after all.

Walking up to the school entrance, Penelope took the measure of her fellow students. There were so many species represented, from orcs to elves, and the humans. She'd never had the pleasure of meeting a human, but she'd heard many interesting stories and rumors. None of them were true, probably, but it would certainly be something worth writing her mother about.</div>"

The Academy appeared before her, and happiness swelled in Zar's heart. Her golden eyes fixated on the modern buildings covered with snow as they descended before flickering about at the incoming students. Sure enough, there were familiar faces from the years previous, but there were also an influx of first years. It was difficult to imprint the faces to her memory as everyone quickly fell from the sky, but she knew she would have the year ahead to learn more about her classmates. 

The speed of the descent came to a slow halt and her griffon fluttered once to drop her luggage into the snow and once again for a soft landing beside the bags. ""Thank you for the ride, sweetie,"" Zar said, pulling a piece of beef jerky from her pocket as she stepped off the beast. He happily accepted his treat and cuddled into the young woman before taking to the skies again. 

On solid ground again, Zar took a moment to gather her bearings. Sure enough, her headdress needed adjusting after the breakneck flight. She fixed it so it sat straight on her head and tucked a dark curl back under the cloth. She took another few moments to straight out the rest of her clothes and wipe her eyes free of the wetness that had spawned against the cold air. Finally happy with her appearance, she adjusted the strap across her chest that kept her weapon at her back, and picked up her bags.

She was already heading for the main hall when a woman's voice greeted the students and then-- And then headmaster interrupted with his own flavor of greetings. She rolled her eyes as she walked, her smile fading as she closed out the noise about her.

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3"">Dagny</div></div>
Time flew by and Dagny was more than comfortable in the air. When they were finally in school airspace, the young woman leaped off the griffon, who scolded her with a screech. Nonetheless, she hit the ground with a heavy impact, snow flying up from where she hit. “Woo!” she exclaimed, greeting the school grounds quite noisily as she stood at her full height, throwing her hands in the air. A drop from that height would break human bones at least, but she stood fine. In fact, the ground is what took damage from her drop: she stood in a small crater, lending evidence to her massive true form. 
 
The griffon landed beside her with a caw of disapproval, but Dagny only shrugged in response. “It’s year four—I had to do something to spice it up,” she stated matter-of-factly, her eyes flickering about at the not so fresh and fresh meat alike—mostly looking for a reaction to her fall. She did love to show off. As she looked, she gave the large griffon a scratch on the head in appreciation for its ride before it flew away. 

Dagny chuckled and easily gathered her bags in her arms and looked around at the other students. The griffons were about as brutish as usual to the newer students. They were getting flung off the large birds, their luggage carelessly discarded at their feet. She laughed loud appreciative at the sight--it never got old. It was just another reason to tackle the landing on her own. 

She stood watching students crash and burn--or gracefully descend--from their rides of the sky for a while. Then, her bird watching was interrupted by the speakers coming to life. Dagny barely listened until the familiar and crude voice of the Headmaster took over, directing the uninformed buffoons to the main hall. The woman took over again, apologizing for the asshole, and Dagny chuckled as she turned to oblige.</div>"
25591,Academy of the Arcane Artes [Reboot],IC,https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76572-academy-of-the-arcane-artes-reboot,['Casual'],2015-02-22 20:19:00,Tyrant from the West,"<div style=""white-space:pre-line;"">Gabriel did it! He did it! He rode the griffin into the sky like a complete motherfucker, and he was damn proud of it. True, half the time he was prepared to say his last prayer in hopes of a painless death, but he did it! Maybe the next time he rode one of the things he could try out something even more ballsy! However, now was not the time to think of such things. Now was the time to bask in his last few minutes of glory before preparing himself for the change. There was no more Gabriel Paxton, Only Uriel. And now, Uriel was prepared for this year's challenge. He would survive to be a 4th year, and then next, a 5th year. 

As he adjusted his eyes to the change of scenery, it was obvious he was no longer on earth. He had entered the black gate, and his school was within sight. Once again he'd have to put up a little bit of a farce, at least so none of the students would know what his father did and get any strange ideas. Nonetheless, as he had done the previous two years, he started to regret his choice of fake names. It was very similar in both meaning, as well as their endings and origins. He first chose it because he had thought people would doubt he would choose such a similar name if he was trying to hide himself, but still, it might have been a bad idea. 

Now <span class=""bb-i"">Uriel</span> wasn't carrying much luggage with him on the griffin. His dad had already sent some of his clothes to the school beforehand, and he also had some 'leftovers' from last year in his room. so he was only carrying a backpack of some tools, identification, and other miscellaneous objects. The fact he hadn't been carrying much helped him birth another wonderful, and very intelligent idea. It was time for stunt 'numero dos'! Maybe Uriel just had a very smart griffin, or perhaps it was just one accustomed to stupidity. Either way it got Uriel's hint and stayed midair, keeping similar altitude as well as circling the spot where Uriel wanted to land. Uriel shoved his hands into the Bag of Mayhem, which had the initials BoM inscribed on it with black ink. After removing his hand from the BoM he had three marbles in his hand, all of them were cracked. 

At about one-hundred and fifty feet Uriel jumped off the griffin with vigor, and found himself falling towards the ground with his head leading the way. However after a few seconds he was able to adjust himself so that he had taken the position of a sky-diver. Not that he was jumping from such a height, no not at all. Its just that he was quick to prepare himself for impact. Now in his hand was three cracked marbles, two of them were purple and one light green. He was about twenty feet from the ground when he twisted his arm and launched them towards the ground. The impact of the marbles created a 'reverse-impact' zone after they detonated. The gravity marbles mixed with the wind and instead of creating a painful inward force, it lessened the velocity of Uriel's body tremendously while also pushing him away from the ground. After going through the field, he hit the ground without a scratch on him. Had he thrown the marbles earlier he could have even hit the ground feet first and stood tall!  

Once he had regained his balance, and picked himself up, he had heard announcements coming from the school and it's principal. There was some bored sounded lady speaking about taking your luggage and going to the main hall. Uriel had no real luggage beside his backpack with him, but it sounded like going there would be a good idea anyways. As he started to pick up a good walking pace, the message changed. Then thee headmaster took over the speakers and basically repeated what the other lady had said, with much more enthusiasm and a vulgar attitude. Uriel didn't hear much from the headmistress, but when he did it was often more fun then not. Uriel appreciated her attitude, as well as he way of speaking. At the very least if felt as though she had an attitude he liked.

Uriel looked up and he had saw the Griffin he was riding earlier still rotating in the air. After a few minutes had passed of it circling around Uriel from above it gained some more altitude and left to go somewhere else. Perhaps back to wherever all the other griffins went. <span class=""bb-i"">Godamn I would love one of those as pets</span>. He gave it some consideration, were griffins common pets in Lucis? Would they be expensive? Although he doubted it was likely to happen, Uriel would have really liked to kept the most recent Griffin he had ridden as a pet. Would've allowed for a much more stylish way to get around the school too!</div>"

Ark huddled in a small wooden building he had called home for the past 2 days. The flight from his hometown would have been 10 hours+ in the cold wind. That, in and of itself, would be hell. Though, in exchange for making the trip more like 30 minutes, he had to spend 2 days in the horrid cold of Alkvher, instead of Ghrenheim, with it's glorious tropical weather. Ark looked over at the old man he had been staying with for the past 2 days. The old Human had offered him a place to stay during those 2 days for the past 3 years that Ark had been a student at the academy. The man was charitable and kind, and Ark was thankful for that, though he was nothing compared to his old friend back in Ghrenheim. His name was Earl. Earl was a farmer who sat in the old cabin during the long winter months, barely making it through each year.

""It's nearly time for me to go."" Ark looked at the fireplace, then back at the kind old man ""Thanks for letting me stay here again. I guess I'll help you with the next harvest."" The old man simply smiled at Ark as he picked up his thick coat and walked to the door. Earl was mute, though he still managed to make a living without words. ""Goodbye, Earl. Eyn' Gohdus."" (Eyn' Gohdus is a draconian saying which means something like ""Good fortune and hope to you"") Ark stepped outside into the frigid cold, the leather on his feet barely preventing his feet from freezing. Ark watched as a majestic beast fell from the sky at brilliant speeds, landing a few feet in front of him with grace and elegance. Ark quickly checked the bags at his sides, making sure that all of his items of importance were there. Ark moved towards the beast, petting it slightly before climbing onto the saddle. Ark could not fly on his own at the moment. The air was too cold and it would have taken too much time.

The beast climbed through the clouds at speeds faster than most could imagine. Ark looked around at the clouds. Boring. He checked downwards, at the still-visible human settlement, and the many acres of farmland owned by the old man. Ark began to sing an old chant under his breath. A relic of his past, a memory of an old friend. A tear dropped from his eye, before being torn away by the wind. After the allotted time had past, Ark arrived at the school, right as the announcement was made. He dismounted the griffin, petting it once again before thanking it and walking off. Ark made his way to the main hall with his bags at his sides, underneath a thick coat that covered his wings, which were hidden against his back.

<span class=""bb-b"">BZZ...BZZ...BZZ</span> Maxwell's hand slowly clambered for the snooze button, as his eyes began to open, adjusting to the morning light pouring in through the window. <span class=""bb-i"">So, I go back to the Academy today? Well, at least I spent my break having a memorable time with Maria and...</span> Max's thoughts were interrupted as he sat up to see something unsightly standing over him.

""Good morning, Maxy!"" Maxwell looked at the unwanted presence, wiping his eyes so that he could see more clearly. They were obviously wearing some sort of girl's school uniform. If it wasn't for the fact that Maxwell lived in the same house as them, he would clearly mistake them for a young schoolgirl.

""What do you want, George?"" Max said, with obvious disdain.

""It's Georgia. How do I look?"" He did a quick twirl. Yea, he may have looked cute, but that was still pretty creepy.

""You look like you normally do, a guy that cross dresses for attention, even though he has no real interest in it."" George seemingly got mad and stomped off. Maxwell looked to his left, at Maria, who had pulled the blanket over her head to block the sunlight. ""I'll make sure to call often."" Maxwell got up from the bed, and picked the uniform up off of his desk. He showered, ate breakfast, and put on the usual Academy of the Arcane Artes uniform. While he was getting ready, he remembered this was supposed to be Varren's first year at the academy. Varren wasn't going to make it in a place like that, Max was sure of it. Max looked through the kitchen window in the stark silence. The griffin had just arrived.

Maxwell got up from his chair and walked briskly to the front door, grabbing his bag, putting on his shoes. He quickly checked his bag. Clothes, guns, fancy hat, sunglasses, and things that shouldn't be mentioned. Everything was in place. Maxwell stepped out the door and walked over to the Griffin. ""Hello, old friend."" He got on to the back of the winged beast, and flew through the black gale. Once Maxwell had arrived at the academy, he quickly headed for the main hall, with his bag at his side. His luggage should have already arrived at his room, so he had nothing to worry about. The announcement was a bit odd this year, given the aggressive weirdness of the Headmaster.</div>"

His previous year had been nothing like the years before, and part of him was glad he had actually survived. Many of his classmates did not. It was to be expected. Even in well coordinated fireteams, with the best students and gear, it was not uncommon for a squad to be annihilated to the last man. A true trial by fire, as the Academy wanted the best to advance to the next year. No baby sitting, you learned on the job. And if you didn’t, well, you were dead.

Joseph had thought he was ready for combat long before, but training was completely different from the real thing. You fuck up once in training, you get yelled at and possibly disciplined. In the Black Gale, you make a mistake and you die. If you’re lucky, you just lose a limb or two. Many of his friends died during incursions into the Black Gale. Another day, more dead. Joseph tried to look on the bright side of things. Perhaps maybe a certain someone had died as well, who probably deserved it, but as such that person lived, which soured his mood further. 

But life moves on.

If he lived past his fourth year, Joseph would be just a mere step from becoming a fully fledged gatekeeper. A shrill cry outside interrupted his thoughts and signaled his ride was here. Stepping out of his humble abode, Joseph gave the griffon a friendly pat as he jumped onto it’s back. 

A while later, and he was at the Academy. As usual, the first years were crashing or making less than elegant landings. But it was to be expected.  Joseph’s first landing didn’t exactly go as planned either, as he had fell off and skidded a good five feet before something. But he learned from his mistakes- It was better to let the griffon decide to land than trying to rush it along. His griffon landed gently onto the academy and lowered itself to allow Joseph off. 

He was late, but he knew the routine already. Joseph would have to get to the main hall at once, which he did promptly. No need to waste time gawking at botched landings.</div>"

This wasn't the first time Ralthavar ever went into the Black Gale, but this was the first time he, or anyone else, has ever gone this far. His parents always told him of the horrors within the Black Gale, and to ensure that they do not strike fear into the hearts of the orcs they regularly sent their own people inside. The Black Gale was chaotic, but nothing that centuries of hardship under Xia hadn't prepared them for. The only thing that they failed to do was set up a permanent stronghold and not for a lack of trying. So entering the Black Gale was nothing to Ralthavar. No, it was leaving the massive tear and entering the other side that made Ralthavar catch his breath. 

Ralthavar has seen grand cities and towering castles back at Lucis, but the construction here was on a whole other level. The amount of lights, the bizarre architecture. It made Ralthavar excited at the idea of conquering this world, but he had to put those thoughts aside. He did not come here to make an empire, but an alliance. And he'd have to do well to remember that. The Griffons flew closer to the ground signaling that everyone would soon be landing. Ralthavar shouted over the wind in an attempt to get the Harmonious First at attention. <font color=""#00a651"">""Get ready to land!""</font>

The Griffons landed in a uniform formation at speeds that would have threaten to fling off any passenger that wasn't holding on tight. Luckily most of the Harmonious First were paying attention, and the few who weren't still managed to hang on. Ralthavar dismounted from the Griffon and unloaded his belongings from it. He and the Harmonious First stayed together initially as they gathered their belongings. This time, everyone in the Harmonious First were together. He even saw Jett, his contact with the elves, nodding at him in acknowledgement. He'd stay and chat but there was much to do with little time to discuses it.

There was some tension in the air. Despite this group being made for diplomatic reasons distrust was rampant. They at least had the control not to cause a scene right now. Once he made sure everyone was accounted for Raltahvar called out to the Harmonious First. He stood above them on a rock he found on the side of the road.

<font color=""#00a651"">""Here we are. I'll be brief. Look at each other, remember these faces. You will be living amongst them. But some of you won't live through it all. We came here to grow stronger, to strengthen out bonds, but there will be some of us who won't make it. They, who served the Harmonious First and their nation with honor and distinction who in their final moments. Join us, brothers and sisters. Join us in the shadows where we stand vigilant.

This was a more orcish speech than one tailored for the other members of the Harmonious First, but it seemed to have had it's effect on the others. Or so Ralthavar hopes. Jumping off the rock Ralthavar pointed towards the school. <font color=""#00a651"">""Now let's go! Let's show these earthlings the Harmonious First!""</font>

A fairly subtle fanfare was held as Ralthavar lead the Harmonious First to the main hall, as the announcement had told them. They came en mass, carrying, dragging, or wearing their belongings. It would not be wrong to say that it appeared that Ralthavar was leading an army, because everyone in the Harmonious First was armed and armored, ready for a fight. They wanted to make an impression, and that impression was ""Ready for anything"".

The ride through the Black Gale was largely uneventful for Rei. She's never been, but she didn't care much for it. She was more interested in who she might meet at the Academy. Sure it was suppose to be a place to train the students into becoming mighty defenders of their world and so forth, but everyone was mortal. Focusing on nothing but such a deary task makes people dull. While Rei would certainly make sure that she could fight with the best of them, she made no intention of forgetting one of the bigger reasons she wanted to be at the academy: entertainment.

Soon the Griffon arrived into the world of the Academy and Rei was rather impressed. She's only seen such construction in passing through pictures brought back from travelers between Earth and Lucis. She didn't like the cold very much however, though it than made her wonder what sort of winter fashion some of the students would be wearing. Sometimes exposing your flesh was less titillating than being properly, but tightly, covered up. Rei salivated at these fantasies as the Griffon landed on a long stretch of land.

Getting her things Rei left the griffon behind, but not without a playful pat on the hindquarters. Avoiding another kick Rei made her way towards the academy when a loud screeched pierced the air. A few voices called out, one more violent than the other. This made Rei chuckle. <span class=""bb-b"">""Well, at least the staff aren't going to be so serious.""</span> Strutting through the snow Rei headed towards the main hall, keeping an eye out for any lone wanderers she could take into hiding and getting the first taste of.</div>"

After wiping off the remaining residue of the frozen projectile, Varren found his own place in the disorganized river of students.  Although he would have gladly stuck a conversation with those he had already labeled as fellow first years, time was of the essence, and the boy had not the slightest second to spare.  The outside of the building was capped with a circular roof, supported by finely and artistically grooved pillars, fleshed out by carved etchings of masterpieces embedded within portions of the building.  At the base where the entrance lied, staff members were busy ushering in while attempt to control the flow of students.  After all, having a student trampled to death on the first day was not an ordeal they would like on their hands.  The academy itself was a homage to a few thousand students, small in comparison to most, and thus had to establish a building large enough to house their youthful souls in one confined space.  The boy gritted his death while dragging along his luggage, wincing at the occasional bump or nudge he would receive from others.  He would rather get into a close quarters quarrel with the devil himself in the lowest circle of hell rather than have his frail figure endure such a ruffling.  If he was able to do so, Varren would have held his suitcases at each side and attempted to clear a path for himself with a tornado maneuver.  Yet he was surely no superhuman or average orc, so that was all but a distant dream.  

The decor of the hallway leading to the main room was definitely glamorous, but its luster dwindled in comparison to the breathtaking appearance of where all of the students were residing, a sight even more awe-inspiring than the griffin flight  he had just been on a few minutes prior.  The room itself distinctly resembled an auditorium, with rows upon rows of seating leading down to a stage, the focus of the spectators’ attention.  Rather than being organized vertically, year sitting was set horizontally, with the first years in the front and the fifths in the back.  Already it was apparent that some sort of a hierarchy system had been established, given the older years presiding position over the first years.  Yet this tact wasn’t an attempt at denouncing of the youngsters’ worth.  Instead it was to motivate them to manifest a mountain reaching the clouds out of a chasmic molehill.  Varren pulled his luggage into a mostly empty row and shuffled his way into his seat.  The boy leaned forward as the spotlights on the stage suddenly flashed light in unison at a central point.  Almost instantly had all of the veteran years ceased their chatter, leaving the first years still in the middle of their conversations.  Soon enough they picked up on the sudden change in volume within the room and ended quieting themselves up.  Perhaps it was time for the headmaster to make his appearance?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


It was not a manly, grizzled war veteran-esque person that walked up onto the stage.

Nor was it a sexy, bespectacled, well-endowed mistress that stood at the pedestal.

It wasn’t even a normal, homely older gentleman that strode onto the stage.

Instead, it was a child, with hair so light that it was only a shade away from white. Much shorter than the majority of students present, the little boy, dressed in a black, plain uniform, took the steps two at a time. Each step resounded heavily throughout out the auditorium, the wood creaking under his footsteps. Yet there was no other indication that there was anything abnormal about the boy, and he continued toward the pedestal unobstructed, before finally facing the masses of students seated in the main hall. The golden light that shone down on him made his blue eyes sparkle with boyish innocence, before he took the mike in his delicate, unmarred hands.

Then, without any change in expression, he crushed it with his grip, turning it into scrap metal in a screeching, violent instant.

“Sup, you meatsacks! And good morning to all those who aren’t flesh-based as well! Glad to have you back, old years! How does it feel, having spent more years in the Academy than I have spent consciously existing? Oh yeah, I’d say something to you greenhorns as well, but seeing how none of you have made yourself worthy of my attention yet, sucks to suck, eh?”

Brushing his pale gold hair to the side with a flourish, the boy’s black uniform expanded in size, before changing its shape into that of a massive suit of armor, complete with thick gauntlets and spikes jutting out every which direction. With a proud smirk, he said in a booming voice, “As you probably coulda guessed by now, if you had actually been listening to Mailov’s introduction, I’m the Headmaster of the school! I’m also your primary combat instructor, as well as examiner? How can I do all these things without succumbing to sleep or exhaustion? Because I’m a Gemstone, and I don’t need that weak shit.”

“Now, if you’re here to half-ass your way through school, or use your talent as a crutch, consider yourself expelled. You’ll probably die like a bitch if you think like that, and I’d rather not soak in the tears of your parents, so get your ass in gear or get your ass out. Really though, I’ll say this straight-out.”

In an instant, all of his arrogant flamboyance faded, his blue eyes becoming chips of permafrost.

“If you’re not going to fight, leave. Now.”

In that same instance, all that disappeared, and he said, in a friendly, yet still superior tone, “Anyways, my name’s Ier-Briar Thorn-of-the-Shield, my assistant is Mailov Rice-Tan, and we’ll be starting a fun little icebreaker now, so go check underneath your seat, yeah? You should find yourself a number there!”

Not because of the sensation or any trepidation he felt (normal emotions and a conventional sense of touch were things well past him), but just out of sentimentality. For him, it was the same as coming face-to-face with his own killer. This is the reason you are dead. This is the reason your parents are dead. This is why you are up and moving around despite these facts. All strange truths that were difficult to comprehend for him, even now. But that aside, he would have time to contemplate later. Now he had to focus on his education, as all young men of his age should.

The Academy was in sight, just as awe-inspiring as it was last he saw it. The scores of other griffins with their charges were flying into the campus, as well. While the sight of the various people, things, and things that were people was still quite intriguing to FL, he felt like he was missing out on the wonder that his more ""mundane"" peers were experiencing. To put it colloquially, he had, ""seen some shit,"" as it were. The griffin landed, FL dismounted and collected his luggage, and the mount seemed very relieved to be unburdened by the perverse existence that FL represented.

The walkways were filled with bustling students, many in awe of the sights and wonders of the Academy. How cute. A large tribe of greenskins was gathered in one area, shouting about honor in death and all that. FL felt a tinge of desire to correct them on their perception of the afterlife but, hell, let them have their fun. You only live once. Continuing through the main hall toward the auditorium, FL paid less attention to where he was going, and more attention to trying to decrypt the school WiFi key. WPA8? What was this, the middle ages?

Before long, he made it to the auditorium, and filed into the undignified position that he and the rest of the underclassmen shared near the stage. Whatever, all of these ""years"" politics were bullshit, and FL had a hard time buying into them. Rather than continue to gawk at his surroundings as quite a few others continued to do, he spent the next five minutes watching funny cat videos on the internet browser inside his own metal skull. The message of ""LOL"" was displayed in bold letters across his facial display.

The ceremony started, the headmaster came out, and the speeches began. FL was sure that the speech was meant to shock and terrify the various fleshy ones in the audience (though he did appreciate the indirect shout-out), and returned to his cat videos midway through. Thought the headmaster's comment on being a ""gemstone"" was intriguing. There was an analogy for youth here, somewhere. Something about shaping the mind like a faceted, something or another. Hang on.

The flight to on the griffin had been fairly uneventful. In fact, the griffin seemed to not even acknowledge 736, briskly leaving at its first opportunity. It came as somewhat of a shock that no one reacted to 736's arrival. His appearance usually elicited some form of disgust or fear, but not so here. 736 was careful to note that, in fact, this place seemed to be much more cosmopolitan than the backwoods village he had once orbited. Truth be told, he was far from the strangest thing there.

The message on the loudspeaker relayed the information to the student body, though it took its damn time about it. In addition, 736 was slightly taken aback. “What a paragon of consummate professionalism” he muttered in a deep, raspy voice.


Only upon entering the designated facility was 736 struck by precisely the verisimilitude of the student body, seeming to pull the oddest outliers from every corner of both worlds. As 736 saw it, they were a perfect cross-section of extremes, ready to be observed and tested. 736 probably would have even smirked slightly, seeing the opportunities he had been granted to learn about the human condition, if his facial nerves hadn't been so sloppily assembled.

On the subject of bizarre people, the figure that loomed over the crowd was no exception. Something about the child irritated 736, yet he couldn't help but find him intriguing. 736 made a mental note to inquire further.

At Ier-Briar Thorn's request, 736 reached below his seat. There, he found a slip of paper (and around 80 dead spiders). The paper was slightly crumpled, as if it had been used for something else, a theory further supported by what appeared to be a crude drawing of 1/3 of a rabbit on the corner of the paper. Still, the largest detail was, naturally, the number 09, written hastily in pencil.</div>"

Zar strode into the main hall and quickly found a seat. She was silent as she observed other students on their way in. Some had been attending the Academy for a while now and they were relatively unimpressed with the ceremony to come. Others were clearly first years, probably wandering into the main hall by mistake with wide eyes. She kept to herself, however, and her attention promptly to the front at the crush of a microphone.

When the microphone was crushed between the Headmaster's tiny hands, Dagny wondered if that was even allowed. Sure, he was the Headmaster, but if she pulled the same stunt she'd probably face detention. As she sat, her gaze flickered about at the other students. Now that it was quiet save for the Headmaster's droning, she occupied herself with thoughts on the fresh meat. The lineup was pretty dull save for one--you had your run-of-the-mill humanoids, but also a Frankenstein-like creature. <span class=""bb-i"">Wow,</span> Dagny thought, her gaze pulling away. 

As she did, students bent over and she looked around and then up at the Headmaster in confusion. Fuck, she should've been listening. She looked beside her and watched as the student fished a piece of paper out from under her seat. Dagny followed suit and found a number under her seat: 3546.</div>"

Now out of the elements, she vigorously shook her head to to free herself of the snowflakes clinging to her head and irritating her ears. Once in the room she saw that the veteran students seemed to be arranging themselves into the layered pews, quickly perceiving that they seemed to be separating by their classes, or grades, or whatever it had said in that brochure they separated by. Amon noted as the pews went higher, the groups numbers seemed to decrease rapidly staring the fourth year.

No longer needing to shield herself from the elements, Amon's tails ceased covering her body, flowing out behind her as she made her way to the  lowermost pews, gaining a few annoyed glares as her tails brushed into peoples faces as the trailed, a smirk playing across her lips. Despite all her thoughts that she should remain unseen, Amon felt the urge to show off,  if only a bit and had always taken great pride in her tails. With that thought she glanced back, smirk turning into a grimace as she saw that they had actually become  quite unkempt,  fur sticking out at odd angles, no doubt from the trip in, with the wintery winds certainly doing nothing to help. 

This new crisis suddenly took a monopoly of her attention, rushing to find one of the bottom pews and sitting quickly, paying no mind to those who might be sitting near to her. She was soon enthralled with doing her best to smooth down the fur that seemed to be fighting back at her.   

She barely noted the introduction of the headmaster, bemoaning the fact that she hadn't been allowed to bring any of her own affects with her on the trip, on account of them being 'processed as evidence' when she had left. Amon rolled her eyes at the grandiose announcement of the headmaster, focusing on a particularly stubborn tangle,  when she noticed those around her pulling something from under their seats. Unsure of what was going on, Amon reached under hers as well, grimacing as she found a hard piece of gum as well as the paper, and brought only the latter back with her.  After a moment's hesitation, looking between the state Fox her tails and the piece of paper, she gave into defeat, realizing she'd have to grab some grooming supplies first chance, and studied the paper. 

It was an innocuous looking thing having no more than number 297 written on it. With a puzzled expression she turned it over, looking for some sort of explanation, before giving up and watching the others, worried she may have missed something important in her earlier frenzied state.</div>"

Perhaps this wasn’t the best place for the shy girl after all, as she tried to keep some control being pushed forward into the main hall as everyone dispelled towards seats. The older more assured beings making their way towards the front of the assembly as the rest filed into seats in some for a hierarchy the girl assumed watching them. 

In an attempt to escape the crowd, Mia attempted to free herself by inching slowly to the edge of the throng, but failed to notice that upon entering the Main Hall the crowd lessened causing her to stumble into a row almost tripping and landing on a blue haired boy (Varren) her face flushing bright red, <span class=""bb-b"">”S-so-sorry!!”</span> the girl stuttered out quickly straightening herself looking down, before giving up and sitting a seat down from the boy. Muttering to herself, she shook her head reprimanding her foolish actions; this was a chance for a fresh start and become a more assertive person.

Lost in her thoughts Mia failed to notice the small figure make its way up onto the stage until the ear splitting feedback echoed when the mic was crushed, covering her ears as she winced her attention firmly drawn to the stage blinking twice at the small human looking person announced himself in a rather colorful and superior way. A quick flicker of her eyes drew the stream of data focused on the headmaster out onto her glasses as she looked over the data curiously, most of it was missing sections but what he had said about himself matched what she could find. <span class=""bb-b"">”Guess I was expecting something a little less startling..hah…”</span> she murmured to herself dismissing the data back into the constant stream, once more having neglected to pay attention to the announcements. She would have to pull up the recording and give it a proper listen later.

Mimicking everyone else the girl reached down under her chair to withdraw a slip of torn paper, as if it was haphazardly ripped from a notebook and scribbled across it was a neat and pristine 69 a strange contrast to the tinged and worn paper, tilting her head curiously Mia looked around in the same confusion as everyone else before looking back towards the stage wondering just what she was in store for.</div>"

Her trip through the Black Gale was equally uninteresting as it was oddly peaceful, and the scenery appeared to be the same as the last time she had gone through it back in her days at the academy. She wasn't sure if this was because the Black Gale was more static than Yuga had remembered or something else entirely. She still recorded everything she saw in the event her creators pick up on something she didn't. Upon landing at the Academy grounds Yuga bowed towards her Griffon and thanked it for it's services.

And announcement was made shortly after her arrival for all students to head towards the main hall. Yuga could already see a crowd of students make their way towards the hall so Yuga just followed them. Her feet made a soft crunching sound in the snow, leaving behind hand-shaped prints in the immaculate white. Yuga made records of each of the students she saw in the event that she would see more of them and took record of their appearance, belongings, demeanor, and even voice if she could hear and isolate it from the rabble. Everyone looks sufficiently prepared for the school, but would they have the skills to back up their equipment?

Eventually Yuga found her way into the main hall and found herself a place to sit. She had to manipulate her auxiliary arms in such a way that she wouldn't end up accidentally hitting someone else, but they were a bit tedious to maneuver. Yuga sat patiently and waited for the opening speech. When Ier arrived Yuga already knew that this wasn't going to be a long speech. Ier was never really the type to care about professionalism, as Yuga figured. She guessed it was due to being politically untouchable; the position of Head Master was important to both Lucis and Earth and neither side could would react well if their Head Master was fired. It also made things no easier since Ier was practically immortal and liked to flaunt it. Yuga's handlers disliked Ier and made it known to her that they wanted him replaced, but only if they could find someone better to take his position. She wasn't sure why they told her this, though she assumed that at some point she'd have a hand in the change in power.

After Ier's speech he told everyone to look under their seat for a number. Yuga reached down and pulled out a slip of paper with the number 297. She assumed that someone somewhere in this crowd had another slip of paper with her number. Yuga was curios as to what the faculty wanted them to do if they found their person with their number. A simple meet-and-greet perhaps? Would this determine their partners for the year? Yuga couldn't say for certain. So Yuga started to see if she could pick up on the school's WiFi signal.</div>"

Penelope had to admit, she thought she would get along well with the Headmaster. They were both subtle as sledgehammers, more concerned about action than words.

She dug out a piece of paper from under her seat. The number 11 was scrawled on it in poor handwriting. <span class=""bb-i"">A room number, perhaps?</span> Truth be told, she had no idea what the number meant, so she sat back down and wait for further instructions to clear her confusion.</div>"

The last two years were years for taking in the scenery, as well as to get the whole 'new experience' out of his head. He wasn't going to go gawking like he had before, now was the time to get ready for the rest of the year. On the thought of the rest of the year, Uriel had hoped he wouldn't have to hang around any strange fucks like he had before. When he was a first year, he often found a fish-human hybrid type of character in some of his electives. This person was also one of his dorm-mates. Was it to let the newbies interact with the experienced? Or maybe it was an error with student placement? Either way it was hell for Uriel, the site of the boy was often nausea inducing. Uriel didn't like how most fish looked, and having one walk and talk and hang around him was almost a nightmare.

Uriel soon found himself in the auditorium, and it was packed. Some students had even started to get into verbal fights about seating. All the while, some of the more aged students had already started playing catch-up with friends who'm they couldn't keep in contact with other the long break. Uriel found himself doing neither of these things, as his best friend had graduated the previous year. Instead he would just try to find one of the least-populated areas in the third-year section, and wait until further instruction.  As a few moments passed, the volume levels in the room dropped quickly, at most you could hear some of the younger students whispering. Soon the headmaster would make his appearance. Uriel couldn't help but wonder how some of the newer students would react to his appearance, it was certainly of that only the wildest imagination would conjure. 

The headmaster came in and 'introduced' himself to the school. This year he was even louder then he was before, and Uriel often found himself annoyed at how often his ears would hurt during the speech. Well, speech loosely defined what he was doing. If anything it felt like a warning. Soon it had definitely became a warning, basically saying the pacifists would be rooted out. This was no problem for Uriel, the thrill of breaking stuff, as well as people, was already something he enjoyed. He didn't need the school to help reinforce that fighting would be necessary, that's what he had already wanted. 


After the whole 'Don't be a half-ass, my name is shitty, check out this ice' part of the speech was through, the headmaster told then about the numbers beneath their seats. Uriel was quick to grab the paper under his ass and find out what it said. The paper was slightly crumpled, due to his handling, and had a number in the three digits. The paper had <span class=""bb-i"">Four hundred and thirty five</span> written on it in blue ink. 

After quickly searching his memories, Uriel came to the conclusion that something similar had happened last year. He couldn't remember what they did, because at the time he was too tired to care, but now he wish he had gotten more sleep at the time. Either way, he was curious about what it meant. Was this some order? Should he be searching for Mr.434? Or was this a code to get into his room, did they change the dorms? Whatever it was, Uriel wasn't too unnerved by it. Hell he was even excited, maybe this meant he was the 435th best in the school? He quickly realized that wasn't too great. <span class=""bb-i"">Maybe I'll give this a rest.</span> He tried to stop thinking of answers and would now wait for the reason, and the game plan.</div>"

The Harmonious First filed into the main hall, however everyone largely sat within their own groups, sans a few individuals. Ralthavar of course was surrounded by orcs but found himself a decent seat to watch the headmaster. A small humanoid person by the name of Ier-Briar Thorn-of-the-Shield, a Gemstone. Ralthavar knew him, somewhat. Or more accurately he has heard of Ier from some families in Lucis, They generally spoke positively of his ability, but his personality left much to be desired. Many joke that he was given the role of Headmaster as the responsibilities of the Headmaster keeps him away from everyone else. Ralthavar doubt that it's the case: Ier seemed to be the type to skip his official duties for his own whims anyways. Still, he was the headmaster, and Ralthavar does follow some semblance of authority. And there was truth in Ier's words: The Academy wasn't here to teach peasants how to fight. Everyone here should already know how to handle themselves, and those who don't are just fodder. Hopefully Ier's message got through the students, otherwise they'd have a lot of corpses on their hands.

Near the end of Ier's announcement he asked everyone to look under their seat. Ralthavar reached beneath himself and found a slip of paper with the numbers seventy-seven on it. This reminded him of the Rope Jaunts back at home: grab an end of a rope from a pile until everyone has their own rope, and find your partner on the other end. What they did depended on the situation. Usually this was done for simply games, but there was a few times this was done for casual hunts and tournaments. Ralthavar's orcs were getting pumped up for a fight and Ralthavar had difficulty thinking this wasn't going to become one. After all, this was a school for fighting. Surely they will be fighting. <font color=""#00a651"">""Where is my bag? I want to greet me partner appropriately.""</font>
<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h3""><span class=""bb-b"">Rei Maven</span></div></div>
<span class=""bb-i""><span class=""bb-b"">""This room is ripe with the stench of bitches~""</span></span>

Those were the words that were going through Rei's mind at the moment. So many young, pure mortals for her to pleasure herself with. She already made a list of boys and girls she'd make the efforts of charming into bed, or at least onto a desk, for some sweet loving or at least a quickie. She was mainly interested in the earth-born humans, as humans were a rarity in Lucis. And in so many flavors! American, Japanese, Latino, African; Rei was going to be very excited to give them a taste. Her blade practically thirsted for the taste of virgin meat, to pierce it deep and clean. She was nearly tempted to plunge her weapon into the nearest hole, but held herself back. She sheathed her sword for now, waiting, wanting, but kept it on full display for others to be in awe. They may lust if they do desire. She'd want them to.

After being seated Rei hardly paid attention to the Headmaster. Or rather, she was thinking of different ways to fuck with him, both literally and metaphorically. She had an encounter with a gemstone before to bind with it, and it wasn't too bad. Granted she had put away her blade and engage it in grappling. It was a close match as the gemstone certainly knew what it was doing, but in the end Rei was sufficiently pleased with the results. By the time she snapped out of her convoluted sex dungeon that passes for an imagination Rei caught something about looking underneath her seat. From what everyone else was saying they all had numbers of some sort. Rei checked and grabbed the number twenty three. <span class=""bb-b"">""Oh my, now I wonder who this lucky fellow is.""</span>

But Rei had some tricky in mind. Somewhere in here was someone else with the number twenty three. And she was going to make someone else convinced that they have the number twenty three. Someone who'd she would be worthy of simply grasping her handle, but also who she'd think would be a good partner when they meet the other student actually holding the number twenty three. She looked around and found her target: a human male (<a href=""https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76572-academy-of-the-arcane-artes-reboot/char?page=2#post-2421720"">Francois Jeannotte</a>) He didn't seem to have pulled his paper out yet, but when he does Rei made it so instead of seeing whatever his real number was it'll show the number twenty three. She stayed out of sight and focused her magic on him alone. She doubt a human would have the magical resistance or the mental fortitude to resist her spell.</div>"

Ark was a bit put off by the rude antics of the Headmaster. <span class=""bb-i"">What an uncultured freak. Why does he act so high and mighty every year?</span> Ark sighed under his breath, and looked around at the students sitting around him. Out of the corner of his eye he noticed someone who he had hated since his first year for various reasons. Dagny Ek, the dragon girl who had tremendous strength, but the common sense of a brick wall. Ark fiddled with the thick coat that he was wearing, as it wasn't the best thing to have over his wings.

When the Headmaster told them to look under their seats, of course Ark did this. It was just a piece of paper with a number on it. 3546 had been hastily written on the paper, and in such a haphazard fashion that it was barely legible. Ark was pretty sure that someone had drawn a beaver with a chainsaw on the piece of paper, as it took up most of the page. 

<div class=""bb-center""><div class=""bb-h1"">Maxwell Yinyues</div></div>

Maxwell sat down with the rest of the 4th years, and casually watched the Headmaster's usual antics. It looked like it was just an intimidation act to whip the 1st years into shape, and for the most part, that was right, but it was always crazy to think that the Headmaster usually acted like that. Maxwell looked around and studied his fellow 4th years, a good number of them being ones he know semi-well. While The Headmaster was still conducting his antics, Maxwell pulled up the computer in his arm. He checked his email, finding just 1. Maria has sent an email with an image attached. Maxwell would check this later.

The Headmaster soon instructed everyone to look under their chairs. Max found a single slip of wrinkled, dirty paper. The number 9510 was written in awful hand writing on the awful piece of paper. Why the hell did the Headmaster want them to have these pieces of paper anyway. Only one possible scenario came to Maxwell's mind.</div>"

Francois hummed cheerily as he entered the grandiose main hall, the bustling crowd blocking the entrance having finally dispersed somewhat and thus opened up an unobstructed movement vector into the designated area. He looked around the area, basking in its majesty. This definitely wasn't what it was like back at the lab. The main hall, more an auditorium than anything, was lustrous and awe-inspiring, as opposed to the monochrome color scheme and sparse decor of the facility. It was all a very exciting experience. He looked around for an empty seat, opting to take one behind a mostly-empty row. 

The lights darkened, everything went silent, and a spotlight shone on the stage in the front. At the forefront of the stage was a flaxen-haired adolescent shining with the radiance of the angel. 

Then came the screech of metal caving in upon itself, and the boy spoke.

...

...That.......was actually pretty cool! Admittedly, Francois'd been expecting more a Dumbledore-ish type, or maybe like some school marm, but a 'hip, young headmaster who don't play by the rules' was perfectly fine with him. It was good to see mentors trying to connect with their mentees. The fellow's choice in words was a bit crude, but perhaps that was his way of fitting in? It made sense in a way, and who was Francois to argue with sense? Nevertheless, they were instructed to remove something from the bottom of their seat. Something about an 'ice-breaker' and a number. Though what breaking ice and numbers had to with each other was beyond him. Thus, with a theatrical pull, he removed the slip of paper off the bottom of his seat and looked upon it. Emblazoned on the disheveled piece of paper was a big, bold...

23.

Francois looked at the slip for just a moment-----

<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: ...Wait, 23? Don't you mean 09? Verification required. </span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Beta]: 09? That number is a 23.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Gamma]: Division Beta is correct. That is a 23. </span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: No... That's a 09, what are you all talking about? Are you sure?</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Beta]: Visual information reports that the number is, in fact, the number 23. Spelling: T-w-e-n-t-y-dash-t-h-r-e-e. Are the nanomachines malfunctioning? Check again.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: Very well.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: Nanorobotic visual confirmed. It's definitely, 100%, a 09, not a 23 as you claim.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Beta]: Previous sensory information contradicts that notion.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: It's not a bloody 23, it's a 09. Are you blind?!</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Beta]: The subject's 20/20 vision contradicts that notion.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: No, it's a figure of-- It's a 09 you waste of grey matter.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Gamma]: False. The curvature of both characters, and the line at the bottom of the first, corresponds to the number 23.</span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Beta]: Division Alpha's inability to differentiate 09 and 23 is worrying. Objections to placing Division Alpha on temporary shutdown until we can fix this dilemma? </span>
<span class=""bb-greentext"">&gt;[Division Alpha]: FINE. Fine, it's a stupid, goddamn 23. We'll worry about any deficiencies in our abilities at a later point.</span>
